PROSPECTUS.
His Excellency Senor Don Carlos Gutierrez, Minister Plenipo-
tentiary for the Government of the Republic of Honduras to the
Court of St. James's, being authorised by full powers, dated 14th
March, 1870, to raise for his Government a Loan of Two Millions
sterling net, for the completion from sea to sea of the Inter-
oceanic Honduras Railway, has instructed the London and
County Bank to receive applications for the same.
The Loan will be represented by bonds to bearer of £lOO each,
bearing interest until redeemed at the rate of 10 per cent. per
annum,,payable half-yearly, on the Ist January and Ist July in
each year, at The London and County Bank.
The whole Loan will be redeemed within 15 years by an ac-
cumulative Sinking Fund of 3 per cent. per annum, to be applied
by annual drawings, the said drawings to take place on the 31st
December in each year, in the presence of the Honduras Minister
in London, a representative of Messrs. Bischoffsheim and Gold-
schmidt, and a Notary Public, and the Bonds so drawn will be
paid within one month thereafter.
This Loan is raised to complete the Interoceanic Railway, and
to place the line from sea to sea in thorough and efficient work-
ing order. As in the case of the previous Loan, the proceeds
of the present Loan will be paid into the hands of trustees ap-
pointed for that purpose.
The entire Railway and its revenue is mortgaged to the bond-
holders. of all denominations, and the proceeds of the State
domains will be applied in a like manner.
The first section is contracted to be finished next November.
Messrs. Waring Brothers and McCandlish have undertaken,
under heavy penalty, to complete the second section at the end
of 1871, and a new contract has been signed with them to com-
plete the entire Railway from Puerto Caballos, on the Atlantic
coast to the Bay of Fonseca, on the Pacific, and deliver it over in
efficient working order in the autumn of 1872.
The Railway is under the protection of theßritish Government
by a treaty which declares;—

M. LEDRU-RoLLIN.—The news recently given
about M. Ledru-Rollin having once more returned to
France is unfounded. He resides at this moment in
London. It is stated that he intends going in a short
time again to his estate at Fontenay-aux-Roses, but
not with the object of taking up his final residence in
France.

EXPLOSION IN A SHIPBUILDING YARD.—On
Friday night an alarming explosion took place in a ship-
building yard in Glasgow. The boiler in the works of
Messrs. Elder burst, scattering fragments to a great dis-
tance. A thousand men were working at the time in the
yard, so that it is miraculous that no one was killed or
seriously injured. One man only was slightly hurt.
CHURCH PREFERMENT.—The rectory of Holy
Trinity, Dorchester, Dorset, in the diocese of Salisbury,
worth between £5OO and 2600 a year, and vacant by the
death of the Rev. James Fisher, has just been conferred
by the patrons, the trustees of the Dorchester Free School
and Almshouse, on the Hev. Henry Everett, M. A., Incum-
bent of St. John's, Devonport, Devon.
THE EASTERN FISHERIES.—The mackerel fishery
has been prosecuted with varying success off the Eastern
coast. One day last week, however, there was a change
for the better, and thirty thousand fine fish were landed at
Great -Yarmouth, which sold readily at from 18s. to 30s.
per 120. Considerable quantities of mackerel have also
been landed at Lowestoft. _

Rear-Admiral Astley Cooper, the newly-appointed
Superintendent of Malta dockyard, who has been relieved
of his appointment at Portsmouth by the present Board
of Admiralty, has left Portsmouth on board the Fire
Queen for Southamption, with his staff, to make a passage
on board the packet to Malta, to assume his post as second
in command of the Mediterranean fleet.

COUNT BEUST.—The Emperor of Austria, on
returning to Vienna from Ischl, called twice in one day
on_Connt Beust, which gave rise to the impression that
the Chancellor of the Empire was seriously ill, or that
the double visit was necessitated by urgent business of
the State. It turned out on inquiry that the Count was
suffering from lumbago, which prevented him from going
out, but did not prevent him from attending to business.
His Majesty's first visit was one of sympathy, and his
second was induced by some urgent business, which led
him to consult the Chancellor.
THE FIRE AT CONSTANTINOPLE.—According to
the latest news from Constantinople the accounts of the
disastrous consequences of the late fire were in no degree
overstated. A relief committee was started immediately
by the Imperial Ottoman Bank, associating with tilt
Societe Generale Ottomane, the Credit General Otto-
man, and the leading capitalists of Constantinople,
under the presidency of the Government. At the first
meeting £26 b
,000 was suscribed, including £lO,OOO from
the Sultan, 23,000 from the Ottoman Bank, £2,500 from
the Societe Generale Ottomane, and £2,500 from the
Credit Ottoman, and various sums of from £5OO to £l,OOO
from private bankers and others. The English, it
appears, have suffered much.
BURNING OF THE DUNDEE JUTE MILL.— An
extensive conflagration, resulting in the total destruction
of one department of Ramsay Works, Dundee, the
property of Messrs. J. Hoile and Co., occurred on Friday
evening. Two of the fire brigade, named Robert Ramsay
and James Alexander, narrowly escaped serious injury.
When the fire was at its height a party of the brigade
were throwing water through a door in the upper flat.
The couplings of the roof suddenly gave way, and, pieces
of the burning timber fell on the shoulders
of the men named. The force of the shock
sent both of the men to their knees, and
somewhat stupified them. They were immediately
assisted to their feet, and shortly after re-
covered themselves, when it was found they had escaped
with little injury. The origin of the fire is unknown, but
it is believed to have resulted from some of the steel
spikes of the breaker being broken, having caused sparks
sufficient to ignite the jute which was in course of prepa-
ration. The damage caused is between £2,000 and
£3,000. The sum, however, will be met by insurances.
LOVE AND LONG HAIR.—A magnificent piece of
human hair is now exhibiting in New York. It is of a
dark brown hue, soft as silk, weighs seven ounces, and is
64 inches in length—five feet four inches. On a medium-
sized woman this would sweep the floor. The longest
piece of hair on record, exhibited at the Great Exhibition
of 1851, belonged to Leon Pellery, of Paris, and was
seventy-two inches in length. The story of this one, that
measured sixty-four inches, is somewhat romantic. It
came from the head of a Swabian peasant girl, who had
two suitors for her hand—one a poor farm hand, who
earned six kreutzers a day, and the other a rich miller.
The miller owned the cottage in which the Swabian girl
and her widowed mother lived, and being as selfish and
unscrupulous as he was wealthy, threatened to drive his
tenants out of their home unless his suit was successful,
although they had already paid part of the price
demanded for the cottage, and were saving and working
to pay the remainder. In this emergency a travelling hair
merchant appeared in the village, and sooner than marry
the wealthy miller, or, on the other hand, have her aged
mother driven from house and home, she determined
upon the sacrifice of her beautiful hair. It was taken to
the Leipsic annual fair, and sold there to an American
dealer.
MANIFESTO FROM DON CARLOS.—The " Duke of
Madrid," better known as Don Carlos, has issued a mani-
festo. Spain, he says, has arisen as one man, with the
cry of " God, country, and king ! " and her king, on
hearing that cry, has raised the Spanish banner and
thanks his supporters. Those who are with him are more
than a party—they are the Spanish people, generous and
magnanimous in prosperity as well as adversity. The
whole are not with him, for a cause which is not national
has divided and estranged the people and ensanguined the
country. A Spanish cause will re-unite them and cause a new
Spain as great as the old to spring from the ruins. " I,"
adds Don Carlos, "am the representative of that princi-
ple," and he declares the great desire of his life to be " to
preserve with a religious love the sacred heritage of our
fathers—to accept as a favour from Providence
the progress and amelioration of our epoch—to
constitute, with the aid of the natural repre-
sentatives of Spain, a Government really national—
to rule and govern the people in peace and justice, the
King being assisted by the devoted representatives of the
realm, always holding towards him the language of truth,
and equally respecting the rights of all, great and small."
He is satisfied with the conduct of the Juntas, and bids
them have faith, for that will save Spain.
CONJUGAL SEPARATION IN FRANCE.—A report of
judicial statistics recently made by the French Minister
chews that applications for separation de corps have
largely increased of late years. In 1857 the total num-
ber of such applications throughout the whole of
France was only 1,191, while in 1868 it reached no
less a total than 3,000. The courts granted the appli-
cation in the proportion of 89 per cent. In 2,683
cases the wife was the plaintiff, and only 316 applica-
tions were at the instance of the husband. Formerly
judicial separations were confined to the wealthier por-
tions of the community, but it now appears that the
working classes frequently avail themselves of the
law, as in 1868 no less than 1,258 applications
were at the instance of persons styling them-
selves ouvriers , or ouvrieres. As might be ex-
pected, the vast majority of separation cases proceed from
the great cities, Paris ranking first, and followed in due
order by Bordeaux, Lyons, Marseilles, and Rouen. Of the
3,000 suits instituted in 1868, in 24 cases the parties had
been married less than a year; 519 from 1 to 5 years, 809
from 5 to 10 years, 1,219 from 10 to 20 years, 401 from 30
to 40 years, 24 from 40 to 50 years, and in three crses the
parties had been married for more than half a century. In
exactly two-thirds of the cases there were children of the
marriage.
