PROSPECTUS.
The Eastern Exchange Bank (Limited), is formed to supply
a want which has been long felt, and its value will be imme-
diate y recognised.
Although Liverpool enjoys an immense export and import
trade, and is the port through which the valuable m
aanufac-
tures of Lancashire and Yorkshire pass, it his not single
Bank connected w,th the Mediterranean, the East Indies,
China, or Australia. ~,rfi
The exports of British and Irish produce and manufactures
to the above countries for the year 1863 amounted to about
forty millions, and by far the greater portion was shipped
from Liverpool, whilst the produce received in return into
Liverpool was of a va ue of upwards of sixty millions, making
a total of one hundred millions sterling*.
Whilst London has upwards of fifty Banks, with branches
in different countries, established for the purpose of affording
every, facility in Exchange transactions, there is no Bank of
this description, with i s head-quarters in Liverpool, con-
nected with the East.
The profitable nature or Exchange business is well known,
and the practice which has become so general of attaching
Bills of Lading to Bilis of Exchange renders this the safest
description of Banklng business. _
Some evidence of the safety and profitable character' C
business is afford the
.'ed by the present values of the 11

The Eastern Exchange Bank (LimitecD, will have its head-
quarters in Liverpool. Branch Banks will be formed, in the
first instance, at Alexandria, Bombay; Calcutta, China, and
Australia, and as the business devtlops, at other places.
The Directors of the Esetein Exchange Bank will make
arrangements for Lon,l'On business, constituting a first-class
London Banking Agency on mutually advantageous terms.
The busine -a of the Bank will chiefly consist in negotiating
mercantile bills of exchange, granting drafts, in negotiating
and collecting bids payable at places where the Bank has
Branches or Agencies. It will issue circular notes and let-
ters of credit, will undertake the purchase and sale of secu-
rities, the receipt ofdividends, and effect remittances between
the several places, int:uding London, at which its Agencies
and Branches wiii be established.
The Bank is founded under "The Companies Act, 1;132,"
whereby the respective liability of each Shareholder 18
limited to the amount of his Shares.
There will be no fee for promotion; the remuneration of
the Directors will be fixed by the Shareholders at each
annual meeting ; and the preliminary expenses will be con-
fin 'd to indispensable outlay.
The Articles of Association lie at the Office of the Solicitors
for inspection.
Applications for Shares must be accompanied with a
Banker's Receipt for £1 per Share.
In case the amount so paid should exceed £3 per Shan aph
the number of Shares allotted, the surplus will be retiirittd
but it it should fall short, the balance must be paid within
seven days after notice of allotment, or in defati'.'t, the allot-
ment will be cancelled and the deposit fortetted.
If no allotment be made the deposit Win be returned in full.

SECRETARY (PRO TEM.)
Arthur Dosso-, Esq.
The Company has been formed for purchasing and ex-
tending the well-known iron ship-building establishment of
Messrs. Martin samuelson and Co., of Hiatt The capabilities
of these works are unsurpassed by any in the kingdom—they
occupy 11 acres Of ground, with water frontage to the river
Humber and river llull, having a depth of Water of 30 feet.
The present iron ship-building power of the establishment
is equal to the construction of go,od) tons per annum, at
which rate the Works are hbw being carried On. Messrs.
Samuelson and Cnitnpal# hAte orders on hand for ships ex-
ceeding 20,000 tons ; other large orders are offered, and it is
proposed to take 11 acres of land adjoining the present yard,
and which Messrs. Samuelson and Company iiave secured,
so as to extend the works to meet the large daily increasing
profitable demand for ships, and to erect rolling mills for the
manufacture of the iron required for ship builuing, as well as
for all kinds of railway and engineering works.
In addition to the engineering works, foundry, and ship-
building yards, there is a patent slip for repairing ships of
the largest class. This is a highly profitable part 01 the busi-
ness. Te mand for the use of this patent sli has been
such that de
it has never been unemployed since Mesasp . Samuel-
son and Company constructed it at a considerable cost some
years ago.
The situation of this establishment gives it special advan-
tages over of a character. The pri of i-build-
ing labour isothers lower atlike Hull than in any ofe thes ihropn ship-
building ports of the kingdom; it is in the great iron district
of Yorkshire; twilit is cheap, railways run into the works,
and sonnet them with all parts of England. Freights are
vP]ry moderate from Hull, and the large timber trade of
Hull offers advantages for the purchase of the timber, which
Is
used in large quantities, on highly advantageous con-
ditions.
Two thousand workmen are now employed at the works.
The present orders in hand for ships, engines, and general
engineering work amount to above £300,1;00, all at very remu-
nerative prices.
Reports made by some of the most eminent engineers who
have examined the works, and who are specially acquainted
with this branch of manufacture, shoe that
after
makingmaing
large allowances-30 per cent. - off the capabilities
works, the trade will, with the judicious management and
employment of the capital, return a dividend of 20 per cent.
and upwards to the shareholders, and if the works continue
to be fully employed, a much larger amount.
Tha teens of ► urchase are highly advantageous; the plant
and machinery, buildings, freehold and leasehold premises,
together with al the stock of materials, are to b taken at
the valuation of two engineers, one named by the Company
and the other by the vendors, with an umpire in the usual
way. The goodwill of the business, including the profit
on works in hand, is to be paid for at one year's pur-
chase of the net profits, but on an average of three years'
working.
In the event of no allotment being made, the deposits will
be returned in fu I. Should a less number of shares be al!otted
than is app lied for, the deposit will be made available towards
the payment on allotment, and the balance, if any, returned
to the applicant.
Prospectuses and Forms of Application for Shares may be
obtained at the Temporary Offices of the Company, 21,
Threadneedle-street, and 80, Lombard-street, and 91 the
Brokers and 6olicitors.

THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPJI -0 LE- "
ex,,,,c,4Czy)
Yesterday, on the invitation of the direct° tesee'''se/
keae
the Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Coal.N.
pany, a select assemblage of gentlemen met at the
company's Gatta Percha Works, Wharf-road, City.
road, to view the process of the manufacture of the
Atlantic telegraph cable now in progress there. A.
large circle of invitations had been issued, and
amongst the gentlemen present were the Marquis of
Tweddale, the Hon. Mr. Everts, Mr. Bright, M.P.,
Professor Wheatatone, Mr. C. Edwards, Mr. Ed ward
Cropper, Mr. Cyrus Field, Mr. J. Pender, M.P.,
chairman of the company, Mr. Shuter, the secre-
tary, and a number of other gentlemen.
The visitors were introduced to the large room
in which the Atlantic cable is being manufactured,
and witnessed the various processes through which
it passes; and a contrast between the capabi-
Itties of the old Atlantic cable of 1858 and
the new ono of 1861 msy not be without interest.
In the old cable the conductor was a copper strand,
consisting of seven wires, six laid round oae, and
weighing 10 71b per nautical mile ; in the3tioewlc, cable
the conductor is a copper strand, consisting of seven
wires, six laid round one, and weighing
o
nautical mile, embedded for solidity in Chatterton's
compound. Insulator in the old cable, gutta percha
laid on in three coverings, and weighing 2611 b per
knot ; in the new, gutta percha four layers of which
are laid on alternately with four thin layers of
Chatterton's compound. The weight of the entire
insulation 4001 b per nautical mile. Externalprotec-
tion in the old cable-18 strands of charcoal iron
wire, each composed of seven wires (six laid round
one), laid spirally round the core, which latter was
previously padded with a sewing of hemp saturated
with a tar mixture. The separate wires were each
221 guage, the strand complete was No. 14
guage. In the new—ten solid wires of
the guage 685 (No. 13 guage) drawn from
Webster and Horsfall's hemegenous iron, each wire
surrounded separately with five strands of Manilla
yarn, saturated with a preservative compound, and
the whole laid spirally around the core, which lat-
ter is padded with ordinary hemp, saturated with a
preservative mixture. The weight in air of the old
cable was 20 cwt. per nautical mile; and of the new
351, cwt. per nautical mile. Weight in water
of the old cable 13.4 cwt. per nautical mile,
er equal to 4.85 times its weight in water per knot,
that is to say it would bear its own weight in a
little less than five mile depth of water; of the new
14 cwt. per nautical mile, or equal to eleven times
it weight in water per knot ; that is to say it will
bear its own weight in eleven miles depth of water.
Breaking strain in the old cable, 3 tons, 5 cwt. ;
in the new, 7 tons 15 cwt. The deepest water in
both cases to be encountered is 2,400 fathoms.
The contract strain of the old cable was equal
to 4.85 times its weight per nautical mile
in water ; the contract strain of the new
is equal to eleven times its weight per nautical
mile in water. It will be thus seen that great im-
provements have been made in the new cable. The
various processes of manufacture were watched with
much interest by the gentlemen assembled, from the
tearing up of the raw material, its progress through
the boiling house, the masticators, and so on, until
it comes to be applied to the wires, and after going
through a series of coatings, is passed on to be exam
mined and tested. The test is 500 lb. to the square
inch, and the cable is manufactured in lengths of
2,500 yards, which are joined together when coma
pleted by a splice similar to that used in joining
fishing rods. The splice having been effected,
there are two coatings of wire overlapped which
are coated with gutta percha to the size of the cable.
After passing through all these various processes
the cable is then sent down to Greenwich, where at
the works of the company (late Glass and Elliott':),
the outer covering is completed, and the cable
rendered ready for use. The manipulations to which
the wires were subjected, in preparation for the
covering, also attracted marked attention, and, after
carefully inspecting the whole process of man.ufae-
ture in connection with the cable, the visitors were
shown over the extensive works of the company,
where gutta percha was being manufactured into
aleaost even: cenceivable article of use and art. The
visitors were highly delighted, and expressed their
appreciation of all they had seen, and their thanks
to Mr. Chatterton, Mr. Smith, and Mr. Shutter, the
secretary, for the intelligence, courtesy, and kind-
ness which rind marked their conduct to the nuttier.
ells party present.

THE NAVY.
The Duke of Somerset, the First Lord of the Admiralty,
held a levee on Thursday afternoon at the Admiralty, White-
hall, at whicl the following officers were present—Admiral
Sir W. H. Johnstone, Rear Admiral Kellett, Rear Admiral
Hall, Rear Admiral Hutton, Rear Admiral Denham, Capt.
H. F. M'Killop, Capt. Mark R. Peachell, Capt, G. A. C
Brooker, Capt. W. Graham, Capt. R. Harris, Capt. A. M,
Lyons, Capt. John E. Complexell, Commander H. L
Round, Commander G. Smythe, Commander T. G. Drake,
Commander J. Bmkeley, Commander J. N. Norman,
Commander R. P. Cator, Commander E. Hardy, Com-
mander C. J. Wray, Commander F. H. Smith, Lient. W.
D. D. Selby, Lieut. C. C. Robinson, Lieut. B. Sharpe,
Lieut. G. Parsons, Dr. Q. M'Cormick (Deputy Inspector),
and Dr. Hugh Jameson (Staff surg.)
Her Majesty's screw steam line-of-battle ship Bombay,
67 guns, 400 horse power, Captain Colin A. Campbell, re-
cently commissioned at Chatham for the flag of Rear-
Admiral the lion. C. G. J. B. Elliott, C. 8., the newly-
appointed Commander-in-Chief of the south-eastern coast
of America station, arrived at Sheerness on Monday last,
and was taken the next day to the measured mile off Maplin
Sands, for her final trial previous to proceeding to sea. The
officers present at the trial were Captain W. K. Hall, C. 8.,
of the Steam Reserve, who had command of the vessel
during the trial, and Captain C. A. Campbell, The engines
were in charge of Mr R. J. Ray, chief engineer of the
ship, and under the superintendence of Mr W. Rumble,
inspector of machinery afloat, and Mr W. Baker, chief en-
gineer, Chatham Dockyard. The constructors of the en-
gines, Messrs. Humphreys, Tennant, and Co., were repre-
sented by Mr Affray. During the trial thQ engines worked
most satisfactorily and without any hot bearings, and the
boilers yielded a good supply of steam without priming.
The draught of water was 20ft Bin forward and 24ft aft.
The pressure of steam was 201 b ; vacuum, 261; revolutions
of engines, 70, and the average speed at full boiler power
one, six runs at the mile was 10.157 knots. Two runs were
made at half-boiler power, giving a result of 7.330 knots
per hour. The Bombay is in every respect fit for sea, hav-
ing shipped her powder and shell and had her compasses
adjusted since her trial. She will be inspected on Monday
next, and will proceed on Tuesday to Plymouth en route to
her destination.

In the notice of the trial trip of the &dines, which ap-
peared in The Sun of yesterday, we omitted to mention that
among those present were Mr Penn and Mr Matthew, of
the firm of John Penn and Sons, and Mr John Dinnen, in-
spector of machinery.

By direction of the Admiralty and the War Department,
Commander Colomb, R.N., and Capt. Bolton, 12th Regi-
ment, are about to proceed to Portsmouth in order to carry
out a series of important official experiments with their
systems of flashing signals at extreme ranges. Captain
Bolton's system has been already adopted in the army, and
Commander Colomb's system is about to be adopted in the
navy. The object aimed at in the forthcoming experiments
is the combinations of both systems for naval and military
purposes, and more especially with reference to coast
defence.
