Discount at the rate of 6 per cent. per atiliYM will be allowed
on pre-payments in full, making, with alloWtnces, the price
of issue under £55.
In case of non-allotment, the deposit will be returned,
Should a less amount be a lotted than that applied for, the
deposit will be made availab'e towards payment 3'l the
allotment, and the balance, if any, returned to the appliant.
The object of the Loan is to effect a settlement of the
general financial condition of the country, to assist in mak-
ing roads and improved communications, inland and coast-
wise, to pay off some existing claims, and generally to
develope the agricultural resources and industry of the
country.
The Loans. Interest, and Sinking Fund are secured by a
special hypothecation of the whole export duties leviable at
the ports of the Republic, La Guayra, Puerto Cabello, Mara-
caibo, and Ciudad Bolivar. These are warranted by the Go-
vernment as wholly uncharged (or that, if any claims can be
substantiated, they shall be met out of the proceeds of the
Loan), and as producing more than sufficient to meet the
charge of the present Loan. The produce of the Export
Duties last year is stated to have been £221,500, and an in-
crease is expected. In the event of any deficiency, the amount
is to be made good by a further special hypothecation of the
uncharged import duties at all the ports of Venezuela.
The consent of Earl Russell has been obtained for the col-
lection of the duties o hypothecated by her ajesty's Consuls
at he several Ports, associated with the Company's Agents,
and the requisite amount will be transmitted twice a month
to the General Cre tit and Finance Company of London.
Out of the same, £120,000 a-year will be applied to the pay-
ment vt the interest and redemption o the debt, as follows :
£C)0,000 to be applied in the first instance to the payment of
the interest.
£30,000 to a sinking fund ; this amount being augmented
periodically by the interest on bends that shall have been
bought up or redeemed.
The sinking fund shall be applied to the purchase of Bonds
in the open market, if th price is at r below par, or to
b their
ear
redemption by lot in the usual way, if above 1' y year y y
until the whole shat have been paid off.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

EPSOM SPRING MEETING.
The gathering, the adjunct of the fine weather taken into
account, bids fair to tread closely on the heels of the great
May Carnival. There is the same crowding of trains at
London, Victoria, and Waterloo—the same holiday look
pertaining to the people on the hill, to the great majority of
whom the City and Suburban and the Great Metropolitan
are things of nought. Many of the especial characteristics,
indeed, of the Derby Day are tending to rob the Epsom
Spring of its most business-like features. The weather,
though cold, was not unseasonable. The Trial Stakes, for
which the Irish mare Caroline was made a very warm
favourite, proved a surprise to her backers, as she never
showed prominently in the race, which was vei y cleverly
snatched from Vivid by Lord Stamford's Gemma, the
latter's jrAkey landing her a winner in. the last few strides
by a head. Trumps carried off the Heathcote Plato easily,
and Jessie did ditto in the London•bridge Stakes.
Speculation on the City and Suburban has shown no ex-
ception to the rule which has applied to the other spring
handicaps. It has been, until within the last week or so,
languid in the extreme. Liston held a solitary position in
the quotations from " the Corner" for some time, and when
others came into the betting still kept the lead, until his
performance at Croxton• park last week sent him out of the
market. Gordian Knot was immediately elevated to the
premiership, and with Veterinarian as second favourite
maintained that position until Jarnicoton, coming with a
rush prior to the race, left off on equal terms with him.
There was a tedious delay at the post, but at length they
got away to a fair start, Moulsey making the running and
keeping the lead until the distance, where Merry Hart and
Lord Burleigh joined him, Lord Westmoreland's horse
winning cleverly by a length, amid loud cheering.
The Two-yr-old Stakes saw another scattering of the
favourites in the hollow victory of Garderieure, who de-
feated Lord Coventry's crack in an easy canter. The
Inkerman Plate wound up the day's sport with another
victory for the fielders in Prescription.
During the afternoon the stewards of the Melton meeting
investigated the objection brought by the owner of the
second horse in the National Hunt Steeplechase against the
rider of the winner, and the following notice was posted on
the board :

The Stewards of the National Hunt Meeting having
heard the evidence brought by Mr Behrens against Mr F.
Loton's qualifications as a gentleman rider have decided
that Cooksborough is disqualified.

Reserve, and Caroline into the straight, when the two

After a short delay at the post, they were despatched in
close company, but after running a few strides Dilston on
the far side came on with a decided lead of the favourite,
who was closely attended by Virginia and Tailor to the
bend, rounding which the former was joined by Trumps,
the pair running together to the road, when Dilston was
beaten, and 'Virginia came on in attendance on the favou-
rite, but failed to quite get up, and was beaten after a good
race by three-quarters of a length : a bad third ; Dilston

The favourite, on the outside, jumped away with a
slight lead, having Mountain Maid, Village Belle, and St.
Thomas as his immediate followers, but as they rounded
the bend the Spasms colt dropped away beaten, leaving
St. Thomas with a alight lead, which he held to half-way
in the distance, where he was headed by Verdiere, who re-
tained a clear lead to the enclosure, when Jessie came with
a rush and won a close race home by half a length ; three
parts of a length between the second and third ; Ida was
fourth, and Mountain Maid fifth; St. Thomas last. The
winner was sold.

Cavour, Merry Hart, Juliet, and Voluptas, 25 to 1 each agst
Brindisi and Exchequer, 40 to 1 each agst Lord Burleigh,
King of Utopia, and Bradamante.
The difficulty of getting the horses to the post was con-
siderably increased by the repeated breaking away of
Cadiz, Merry Hart, Flying Fish, Bradamante, and Gordian
Knot, who upon each attempt of Mr. M'George, to get them
to him jumped round and ran to the brow of the hill. At
last, seeing an opportunity, he lowered his flag Some 30
minutes after the appointed Um° to an equitable start.
Summerside, on the upper ground, was the first away, but
after running a few strides she was headed by Moulsey, who
came on with a clear lead, followed in a body by Brindisi,
Summerside, Aunt Judy, Exchequer, Bradamante, and
Merry Hart, and wide on the lower ground succeeded Lord
Burleigh, close up with whom were Veterinarian, Cadiz,
Flying Fish, and Lord Zetland, the others following
closely in their wake. Coming through "the furies"
Moulsey considerably increased his lead, and as he entered
the old course he appeared to be clear of his horses, some
three or four lengths in advance of the favourite, who,
having threaded through his horses -as they rounded
the turn, came on second, close up with whom were
Brindisi, Bradamante, Exchequer, Summerside, Flying
Fish, Merry Hart, Gordian Knot, and Cadit—then came
Lord Burleigh on the lower ground, who was also attended
by Count Cavour, King of Utopia, Fiancée, Jarnicoton, and
Countersign, the rearmost horses being brought up by
Trumps and Voluptas. These positions were retained as they
descended the hill, and on fairly reaching the dip the colours
of the favourite speedily disappeared from the front, and his
place was immediately after occupied by Bradamante, on
whose right came Brindisi, Lord Burleigh, and Merry Hart,
Summerside, with Gordian Knot, having been disposed of
as they crossed the road, which left Flying Fish, with Lord
Zetland, Cadiz, and Count Cavear as their immediate fol-
lowers. Moulsey (taken for Tom Fool) retained his promi-
nent position to the half distance, where Mercian eased him,
which let up those who were closely in his wake, but dying
away shortly after he was headed by Bradamante, who came
on with a slight advantage to the enclosure, where he was
joined by Lord Burleigh on the lower ground, and Lord
Westmoreland's colt on the upper ground, the former for a
brief period holding out hopes of the success of the cherry
and spots, but on reaching the centre of the stand he ap-
peared to succumb to the weight, and again left Mr. Gre-
ville's nomination in the van, but who within half a dozen
strides of the chair was challenged by Merry Hart, who
won very cleverly at hot by a length, half a length separat-
ing second and third ; Moulsey wasfourth, close up ; Ex-
chequer fifth, Brindisi sixth, and Flying Fish next. Then
came at wide intervals, all pulling up, Lord Zetland,
Weatherspy, Jarnicoton, Fiancee, Effie, King of Utopia,
and Tom Fool, behind whom were Juliet, Count Cavour,
Veterinarian—Trumps being the last of all.
