The Hudson's Bay Company were incorporated under a
Royal Ch rter granted by King Charles IL in 1670 by the
name of "The Governor and Company of ,Adventurers of
,Englaud trading intu Hudson: 431ty," and, ,by the. Charter,
a vast-traet el--4erritolry was vea WA In the o..mapanr,
with the sole right of trade and commerce, and all " mines
royal," as well then discovered as not disowered, within the
said territory.
The operations of the Company, which, with slight excep-
tions, have been hitherto exclusively of a trading character,
have been prosecuted from the date of the charter to the pre-
sent day.
It has become evident that the time has arrived when those
operations must be extended, and the immense resources of
the Company's territory, lying as it does between Canada
and British Columbia, should be developed in accordance
with the industrial spirit of the age, and the rapid advance-
ment which colonisation has made in the countries adjacent
to the Hudson Bay territories.
The average net annual profits of the Company (after set-
ting aside 40 per cent. of them as remuneration to the factors
and se wants at the Company's posts and stations) for the 10
years ending the 3 tst May, 1862, amount to £Bl,OOO, ortal o up-
f
wards of 4 per cent on the present nominal capi
£2,000,000. A portion only of this income has been distributed
as dividend, while the remainder is represented in she assets
and balano s. The assets of the Company, in which the
Subscribers :will .be entitled to an interest corresponding to
the amount of their subscriptions, will consist of goods in
the interior. on shipboard, and other s.ock in trade, includ-
ing shipi-ing business, premises, and other buildings nPces-
saryfor carrying on the fur trade, in addition to which there
will be funds immediately available for the proposed ex-
tended operations of the Company, derived partly from the
cash balance of the Hudson's Bay Company, and partly from
tho new issue of Stock, and amounting in the whole to a sum
not less than £70,000.
The Company's territory embraces an estimated • area of
more than 1,400,000 square miles, or. 890,000,000 of acres, of
which a large area, on the southern frontier, is well adapted
for European colonisation. The soil of this portion of the
territory is fertile, producing in abundance wheat and
other
cereal crops, and is capable of sustaining a numerou
pulation. It contains 1,400 miles of n .vigable lakes and
rivers, running for the greater part east and west, whieh
constitute an important feature in plans for establishing the
means of communication between the Atlantic and Pacific
Oceans, across the continent of British North America,as well
as for immediate settlement in the intervening country. The
territory is, moreover, rich in mineral wealth, including coal,
lead, and iron.
In addition to its chartered territory, the Company possess
the following valuable landed property. Several plots of land
in British Columbia, occupying most favourable sites at the
mouths of rivers, the titles to which have been confirmed by
her Majesty's Government; farms, building sites in Van-
couver's island ; and in Canada, ten square miles at Lacloche,
on Lake Huron, and tracts of land at fourteen other p' aces.
The tradingoperations of the Company are chiefly carried
on in the fur bearing and northern portion of the territory,
where the climate is too severe for European colonisation.
These trading operations will be actively contfnued and, as
far as .possible,. extended, whilst the management will be
judiciously economised.
Consistently with these objects, the outlying estates and
valuable farms will be realised where the land is.not required
for the use of the Company—the southern district will be
opened to European colonisation, under a liberal and syste-
matic scheme ot land settlement. Possessing a staff of factors
and officers who are distributed in small centres of civilisation
over the territory, the Company can, without creating new
and costly establishments, inaugurate the new policy of colo-
nisation, and at the same time dispose of mining grants.
With the view of providing the means of to egraphic and
postal communication between Canada and British Columbia,
across the Com,.any's territo, y, and thereby of connecting
the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans by an exclusively British
route, negotiations have been pending, for some time past be-
tween certain parties and her Majesty's Government and the
representatives of the. Government of Canada, and prelimi-
nary arrangements for the accomplishment of these objects
have been made through her Majest's Government (subject
to the final sanction of the Colonies, based upon a five per
cent. guarantee from the Government of Canada, British
Columbia, and Vancouver Island. In further aid of these Im-
perial objects, her Majesty's Government have signified their
intention to make grants of land to the extent of about
1,000,00) acres, in portions of the Crown territory traversed
by the proposed telegraphic line.
One of the first objects of the Company will be to examine
the facilities and consider the best means for carrying out
this most important work, and there can be little doubt that
it will be successfully executed either by the Hudson's Bay
Company itself. or with their aid and sanction.
For this, as well as fur the other proposed objects, Mr. Ed-
ward Watkin, who is now in Canada, will be commissioned,
with other gentlemen spocially qualified for the duty, to
visit the Red River and southern districts, to consult the
Officers of the Company there, and to report as to the best
and safest means of giving effect to the oonteniplated opera-
tions. • • •

ably adapted to take advantage of circumstances.
This sagacious lady profited by the alarm caused by
a man throwing himself over a bridge to effect her
brother's escape from the bailiffs, and to declare
that be had committed suicide to escape his mere'-
less creditor. The sums of money which she con-
trived to extort from the unfortunate bill broker
on this ground, before the imposture was discovered,
were more profitable to herself and her coadjutor,
than pleasant to the giver. The fifth part of
" Royal Favourites" tells the oft told tale of the
weakness and improvidence of our first Stuart
King. An animated description of Arcot, an
account of a Night at St, Bernard's, and a brief but
interesting paper on the various unsucessful
searches for the source of the Nile, are among the
remaining contents,

LONDON SOCIETY.—" A London Story," as it is
styled, is the first thing to greet the reader in the
July number •of this lively serial. It is entitled
"The First Time I Saw Her," and is original and
interesting enough to provoke the reader's curiosity
as to the sequel. " The Derby Day under an
Umbrella" is an animated sketch of the busy scenes
on Epsom Downs under rather unfavourable cir-
cumstances. " Dickens's Dogs" is the name of a
pleasantly written paper, which styles the popular
novelist " the Landseer of fiction," in testimony to
his pen-and-ink portraits of Bull's-eye, Boxer, Tip
Merrylegs, and a host of other remarkable canine
characters. It is curious how often we notice that
great sketchers of men are equally successful in
depicting the qualities of the lower creatures. The
universal sympathy and quick insight which make
the writer a master of his art enable him to draw
with equal fidelity those varying characteristics of
inferior creatures only perceptible to those whom
they love and confide in. An essay on powder
making is worth reading. It is headed " Among
the Powder," and describes an expedition to a pow-
der mill, and the various processes witnessed in the
course of it. The lovers of exciting narratives will
find a" new sensation" in " The Doctor's Fortune."
We leave them to discover the extraordinary crisis
that brought fame and fortune to the humble sur-
geon of Hallowleigh, and turned his dangerous
rival into his powerful auxiliary. A paper on
" Holiday Walking Tours" concludes a pleasant
number, in which the illustrations are of the usual
nigh order.

THE NEW REVIEW.—This new competitor for
popular favour continues to run its race with vigour,
and deals boldly with the gravest and most pressing
questions of the day, as well as giving us articles—
literary, social, or discursive—after the manner of
the quarterly reviews. It manifests undoubted
ability, and its writings are the work of no unprac-
tised hands, but of combatants who have fought in
the arena of political conflict, and have familiarised
themselves with every aspect of the problems and
perplexities of the age. Its tendencies are decidedly
conservative, but it is not by any means a party
publication. It ranges, if not from grave to gay,
from ancient to modern, from a discourse on the
relative advantages of single and married life to a
view of the prospects of Poland, from reflections on
the antiquity of man to Irish facts and figures of
the present day. One of the most singular and inte-
resting features in the general contents is the intro-
duction of several pages, with facsimiles of the
autographs of celebrities of different times. As a
whole, The New Review may be considered to have
taken a high place among its associates and rivals.

THE NATIONAL.—We find in this part the com-
panion picture to the plate in the last number,
representing the different degrees of plainness when
accompanied with expression and intellect, aril with-
out those embellishers of the human countenance.
Captain Mayne Reid continues his story of " The
White Gauntlet" at some length, and the two other
tales that are going on in the magazine proceed
with interest. The scene of one of them is laid in
America, just at the outbreak of the war, so we shall
probably have some of the stirring scenes of the
opening of the conflict introduced. " The Discovery
of the North-west Passage" and " Dress and the
Dressed" are two among the subjects discussed, and
due honour is paid to David Wingate and John
Harris in a paper on our Wayside Poets.

GOOD WORDS.—" Good Words" has long pos-
sessed, in a rare and fortunate degree, the art of
making high principle and unshrinking morality
interesting; of offering some entertainment for all
readers, as well as grave thought and kindly sug-
gestions. Much is due to its entire absence of pro-
fession, dogmatism, and bitterness ; at any rate the
result is as pleasant to the reader as it is reported
to be satisfactory to the publisher. The number
before us contains the continuation of Dr. Guthrie's
papers on the Parables, and of Dr. Caird's "Essays
for Sunday Reading." It has a story by Sarah
Tytler, an essay by A.K.H.8., a sketch by Madame
de Gasparin, a scientific paper by Sir John Herschel,
and a poem by Isa Craig. There are other contri-
butions as well, including some by the able and
accomplished editor, but those we have already
enumerated are sufficient to establish the claim of
" Good Words" on the attention of most readers.

THE ECLECTIC REVIEW.—This serial certainly
bears out its title in the character of its contents,
for we meet in this number with essays on "A
Modern Quaker Apostle," Stephen Grellet, Adam
Ochlenschlager, and the Abbe Lacordaire, and these
not in any party or sectarian spirit, but with the
recognition of virtue and genius in every form. Mr.
Laisset's recent work receives a careful criticism,
suited for deep thinkers, and " Our Book Club"
notices some recent works. The chief interest of
the number, however, centres in its biographical
papers.

TIIE ODDFELLOWS.—The Manchester Unity of
Oddfellows is no inconsiderable or insignificant
body, and the magazine, especially since it has
passed into the able hands of its present editor, is
well worth reading. The quantity and variety of
the contents can hardly fail to please,while many of
the articles are of a high order. Eliza Cook con-
tributes a wise and witty prose sketch on the
dangers of three little words—" Bye-and-bye," and
an original poem, "The Infinite," teaching, as of
old, a lofty moral from the simple things around us.
" Summer Time," " The Salts in the Sea," " The
Culture of the Mental Faculties," " Music as a
Means of Culture" are among the graver contents,
while song, sketch, and story enliven and vary the
pages. All information connected with the pro-
ceedings of the Oddfellows is duly chronicled :
among which intelligence we find a copy of their
address to the Prince of Wales on a late auspicious
occasion, and his Royal Highness's reply, We can
assure our readers that they will find this northern
magazine not unworthy of notice, even among the
crowd of metropolitan serials.
