Tex last Report of the Central Relief Commit tee is on the whole of a more satisfactory and cheering kind than we could have expected to receive on the eve of what is practically only the second winter of the Cotton Famine. It shows that the crisis of distress in Lancashire and the adjoining counties is happily past; and that al though, as might be expected, many causes of anxiety still exist, and much remains to be done before the mass of destitute labour can be wholly reabsorbed in remunerative work, still the prospect of this being ultimately accomplished is a very hopeful one, and not so distant as was at one time feared. The Report states at the outset that the returns obtained up to the close of last month showed a considerable increase of employ ment in the cotton mills and manufactories of the district. The careful statistics of increasing employment and diminishing re lief given by the Executive Committee sufficiently illustrate this statement, and show at the same time that the area of distress has been gradually but surely reduced throughout the whole of the year now drawing to a close. In the first place, the number of hands employed in full work is now far more than double the number so employed at the end of last year—the figures being 267,962 in full work at the end of September, 1863, as compared with 121,229 in full work in December, 1862. Very nearly • fourth of this large increase in the number of bands fully employed had taken place during last month, the numbers in full work at the end of August being only 235,827. There is naturally a proportionate decrease in the number of hands entirely out of work, the numbers being 160,835 at the end of last month, compared with 247,230 nine months ago. The number working on short time has rather decreased during the last few months-- 104,198 in September, as compared with 121,718 in July ; but this decrease is happily explained by the far larger proportionate increase in the num bers that are fully employed. This improved state of the regular mill work of the district, combined with the numerous efforts made to find occupation for the destitute in other branches of industry, has, of course, largely reduced the total number of appli cants for relief ; but the extent of this mho tion during the year will probably surprise most readers, and is certainly a most sharing evi dence of reviving industry and hope in the North. While the total number receiving relief in January was 456,786, the same total at the close of last month was only 184,625, being a reduction of nearly two-thirds within nine months. As might be expected, the falling off has been chiefly in the recipients of relief from the local committees, and not in those receiving out-door assistance from the guardians. The better class of artisans, the more skilled, energetic, and independent, would naturally exhaust every means of securing temporary help before applying for legal relief, and as voluntary effort soon came to their amistanoe, the great majority of this class never applied is the guardians at all. But this is precisely the class that would be the first to benefit by reviv ing trade. They would, in the nature of things, seize the first chance of returning to work, leaving a large and fluctuating body of their associates —the weaker and more dispirited, the unskilled and the indolent, who had gone to the guardians for help—still in a great measure dependent on parochial relief. The number receiving relief in this way has not much diminished, and it is quits possible that it may to some extent be increased during the winter months, especially if the suggestions of the Report with regard to the local committees are carried out. While the supply of cotton is so limited, any sudden or excessive demand from abroad would of course lead to a corresponding temporary re duction in the hours of work at the mills; and the Central Committee suggest, " that in districts " where the relief is reduced within narrow limits, " these fluctuations of employment will render it " desirable that the whole relief should be trans " famed to the Boards of Guardians. And in such "caw the Central Committee will invite the " District Committees to consider the propriety of " suspending operations." In districts where re viving work has absorbed nearly all the ordinary recipients of charitable relief, this proposal of the Central Committee might no doubt be acted on with advantage. But we earnestly hope that in these cease the operations of the local committees will be only suspended, and that there will be no thought at present of breaking up so organization that has worked so admirably and is so justly entitled to the admiration of the whole country. The high tribute paid by the Central Committee to the manner in which the local committees discharged their arduous duties in the most trying periods of the crisis is well deserved " Few persons unconnected with a local relief " committee have any idea of the amount of " energy and skill required for the discharge of the " duties which devolve upon its members ; and it "is certain that, had not the various districts " secured the disinterested services of their most " intelligent residents, the amount of suffering " during last winter would have been most intense. "Your committee feel every confidence that these "invaluable bodies will not relax their efforts until "the deserving population of the cotton districts " have been carried through this period of privation." Even where the Local Committees may happily be able for a time to suspend their ordinary labours in the way of direct relief, there will probably during the next few months be occasion for their services in other and more incidental ways, such as the ad ministration of seasonable gifts of food, fuel, and clothing. The Central Committee make a special appeal to the public under the latter head, coarse, strong, warm clothing being essential to those who are employed under the Public Works Act : " Your committee wish, however, to suggest to " the public at large that those of the industrial " population of these districts who avail themselves " of the opportunities of labour afforded by the " Public Works Act, will necessarily require a "larger supply of warm clothing than if they re " mained in the schools in which they were em " ployed last winter, and your committee ther " for confidently appeal to the public for dons " tions of clothing, which, by the liberality of the " railway companies, they are still enabled to re " calve free, by the use of the usual label." We have already directed attention to this vital point, and can only repeat the hope and assurance that the appeal of the Committee will not be made in vain. With regard to the future, the Committee pub lish as an appendix to their Report a carefully written paper by Mr. EDWARD ASHWORTH on the " Prospects of Cotton Supply for 1864 over 1863." Mr. Asnworerli is thoroughly acquainted with the subject, and has evidently taken great wine to collect the most reliable information from all quar ters. The conclusions he arrives at after a care ful survey of the cotton fields in every quarter of the globe are of a very hopeful kind. He esti mates that we shall have next year for domestic consumption at least 600,000 bales of cotton more than we have received this year; and this en larged supply will keep the nine at work four days and a half per week on an average through out the year. If this estimate should turn out correct, we begin already to see the end of our national troubles in this direction, and the great Lancashire difficulty will be safely tided over by the end of next year. It is true Mr. ASHWORTH'S estimates were Silb jested to a good deal of adverse criticism, severe' speakers being of opinion that he had taken too sanguine a view of our cotton prospects. But, even supposing this may be to some extent the case, there can be no doubt as to the great fact, that cotton is now coming to us from almost all parts of the world ; and even if we do not imme diately realise our present expectations, an ade quate supply in the near future is already soured.

THE FXPRFSS, THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 22, 1863. LATEST INTFALIGENVE. A' SOUTHEENROPO JOURNAL ON PEACE PSITIONS. The Richmond Examiner has the following on peace propositions : We notice that reesot propoaltious have been made in several of our state legislature' for negotiations with the enemy and suits for armistice. These deserve unqualified condemnation. They are generally made in artful language —they are very innocent on their face—they are always accompanied by certain protestations that the interest of the South is not to be sacrificed—that the negotiation in to bs ea essay on Christian charity, and the object an " honourable" peace. There is no possible truth in such protestations. They are convenient covers of traitorous designs or of cowardly soquiesoence in the failure of oor struggle. It is not wonderful that these suggeetion• in our state legislatures of pacific negotiations should be iovarinbly interpreted by the North to cover propositions of reconstruction. To every candid mind in the Confederacy they can mean nothing else. Those who desire a suggestion of peace to be made now to the North know very well what its price would be. We congratulate the legislature of this state on the signal rebuke it has given to two attempts at peace propositions in that body. It has shown a spirit worthy of the ancient end honourable commonwealth of Virginia, and one that should be inculcated in the war. It is that of resolutiou to prosecute the war without being turned aside by use leas and impatient speculations of peace, expecting that blessing only in the sustained and increased success of our arms, and awaiting it with calm and intelli gent confidence in the progress of events.

REVIEW BY THE EMPEROR ON THE LONOCHAMPS RACE COURSE. THE BALLOON ACCIDENT. (ROY OM Mg PARIS, WZDNIIIDLY EVINING. The finest day that we have yet been favoured with during this rather damp and cloudy autumn lent an additional prestige to the review with which the Emperor entertained the King of the Greeks on the eve of his departure from Paris. About 18,000 men of the Imperial Guard, infantj, cavalry, and artillery, were assembled for the occa sion on the Longchamps race course. Marshal Regnault de Saint Jean d'Angely was in command. The notice being short, and the day being neither a Sunday nor a Monday—the Paris workman's extra holiday—the crowd, not exceseive, was, for the most part, a well-dressed one. The Emperor was more easily distinguished than usual from the bril liant staff which followed him by the broad white stripedown the head of his horse, &blemish which we may be sure so good a judge of horseflesh and horse beauty as his Majesty would not have tolerated, unless it were redeemed by countervailing good qualities of an exceptional character. The youth ful King of the Greeks, who gracefully rode a faultless charger by the Emperor's side, was much admired. On this occasion the Emperor regaled all the °Seers with champagne, and all the soldiers with coffee. It is with real grief that I report that the enthu siastic and courageous Nader, after having passed a whole night in or above the clouds, and having made an aerial voyage of a length and duration almost, if not entirely, unparalleled, is very seri ously injured. He remained in the air 19 hours, and performed a distance of 060 kilometres. The following telegram has been received from him by his brother: We mime down near Nleabotog, is the kingdom cf Han over, at about noon on Monday.

Of the nine pupils le the ear, three are seriously and two slightly evardia K d'Arnoult, en editor of the Nation, who meet be one of the two 'lightly hurt, sends the following telegram : Oet. 21. GSM down In Hanover. Contusions not serious. 1 shall Mara soon. It is unfortunately scarcely to be doubted that the " slight " contusions spoken of by M. d'Arnoult are only his own ; and that we cannot see in his despatch, although of later date, any attenuation of the more serious news given by X Nader. This morning, at half-past 7, Dr. Richard, taking under his chugs little Paul Nader, left Paris to visit the wounded. A despatch received this afteramon — l states that M. Saint Felix has his arm broken. While writing I receive the following despatch : Hanover, Oct. 21, 2 p.a. The travellers in the Giant who were injured have been brought here, and placed under the cue of the French am bassador. The King of Hanover sent one of his aides-de camp to melee them. M. Saint Felix ima his shoulder pot out of place and his face is terribly marred. Nadir has both his legs fractured. Madame Nadir has a commotion of the thorax aid a leg greatly injured. Another despatch says that M. Juice Godard at the most critical moment got into the ropes, at the risk of his life, and with several vigorous strokes of a hatchet opened the balloon, and let out the gas. The interest taken by the Emperor in M. Nadir's balloon calls to mind the fact that 20 years ago he went up in a balloon himself, in England, with Lablache for one of his companions. His Majesty, after conversing on Sunday last with Hadar and his partner, the Viscount Gustave Pontond'Amticourt, was so much struck with the theory of the aerial machine on the screw principle which they propose to construct, that he gave M. d'Amecourt a sum of 20,000 fr., for the purpose of building a small model of sufficient force to raise one man, and thus to try the principle. The Bourse continues to decline. The Rente to ' day (for cash) lost the long-standing figure of 67fr., and closed at 66fr. 90c., with a fall of 2fic. For account the fall was 15c., and the last price 67fr. Sc. Mobilier fell 22fr. 50c., and the Lyons and South ern railways 10fr. THE BALLOON AND . THA CUSTOM-HOUSE - Okirdifts. • The Journal de Chorisroi publishes the follow ing letter, giving very presies information with regard to the paring over Erquelines of the Giant tvoloon, which set out from Paris, as is known, on Sunday, at 5 o'olleek in the afternoon " Erquelines, Oct. 19, Isms.. . "Sir,—Litt night, towards midnight, Porrkeig, the pointaman, and Collard. the Custom-house officer, on ditty at the terminus of Erquelioes, gave themselves up, for the want of something better, to the pleasures of medita tion. when an event of the strangest nature cut sheet their reflectious. The horizon, which an instant before was clear and starry, appeared to them to become suddenly &more, and they thought they saw ad. ?arming, under the impulse of • rapid power, a large cloud, black and opaque, which stopped its course above them and seemed to descend to the ground. When it had got about 200 metres above the buildings of the station, the two witnesses of this mystetious spectacle were in the greater' astonishment at perceiving, sustained by invisible cords, an object which they took for • railway carrier. Surprised, frightened, fascinated, not being able to under stand by what impossible circumstance • carriage of the , Northern Company could suspend it in the air, and I prepared to attribute so misplaced a pleasantry to some genie hostile to the railway and Cr•tom•house, they were about to hurry to their chiefs to inform them of the incident, when a clear and sonorous voice reached them from the supposed carriage, mid asked them—' What department are we in ?' The pointsman and the Custom house officer, being polite people, and seeing that what they had taken for • cloud was nothing but • balloon of gigantic dimensions carrying an immense car, replied, ' At Erqualines, Belgium.' They then heard a conversation amongst the aerial travellers upon the situation of the locality, which ended in their reiving thanks from above. The incident was over for the railway employi; but the Custom-horse officer, who had resumed his presence of mind, and who never loses sight of the requirements of his service, made • trumpet of his two bands, and shouted, 'Everybody stays here fur the visit of the Customhouse . . officer.' This remark was received by the occupants of the car with laughter, and, without attending to the imi tation, they went off in the direction of Louvain." The Journal de Charleroi adds that after the balloon had left the officials of the Custom-hoots at EnloeLusa were really aerials ma to the coosequences which might result to them from this unexpected viobition of their regulations. " What prohibited merchandise might there not be in that cur One of theee gentlemen, who had grown grey in the service, and who sees in Nader and his colleagues the ene mies of the profession, declared that if he had been on the spot he should have made the whole staff take up arms, and summoned the audacious cootraveuers of the law, under the threat of a discharge of musketry, to descend in order to submit to a search. MR. W. E. FORSTER, M.P., ON THE POLITICAL BEARING OP WORKING MEN'S INsnrurss. Mr. Forster, presided, on Tuesday even ing, at • meeting held as behalf of the Bradford Working flies Institute. In concluding a very excellent address. the boa. gentleman said be did sot know that be had bad an opportunity of meeting with the working men of Brad ford ninon the time when he met them in St. Georges-hill on the oocrsion of hie election. He had felt ever since that time, whet be felt and expressed then, that in bdag member for Bradford, be was member for the working men sod the noe-electors as much as for the electors— (applanee)—for they bed an much claim upon him in every respect, and he should be delighted to do anything in his power which might be of advantage to them. (Applause.) Now he had heard it said that them institutes were taking working men away from what politicians who 'greed with him wished to keep them at, namely, afro to obtain that abate in the government of the country which many of them thought that they ought to have. He did not himself think mat all; but he should not think it an a% accent if it were so, because the first duty of working men was to endeavor,. to raise themselves socially, and let politica take care of them selves Bat he did not think that the connection of work ing men with these institutes would have the effect which he had mentioned, for the fact was, there was r.o more slue and certain way to their obtaining political advanosenent than to raise themselves socially. (Hear, hear.) In the Ent plea they removed the opposition against them. By their efforts and self-denial they proved semi to the most bigoted opponents of what they, and he, and others, considered their rights, that they might safely, and with out any danger to these opposing parties 'teethe throe rights. He found, when he went up to Lo ndon, that very different opinions to his own were held by many indivi duals with regard to the power with which the working men of England might safely be entrusted is the manage meet of the country. These differences of opinion did not arise because he had a better feeling in his heart towards working man than these people had, but because they did sot know the working men so well as he did. (Hear bear.) The more, therefore , they made use of these effo rts, the more their fellow men in England would know them, and feel that they might safely be raised to community of power. (Hear, hear.) There had been a curious change upwards and downwards in the political feeling of working men, especially with regard to the suffrage. Fifteen or twenty years ago, during the old Chartist movement, there was an earnest feeling. It was grounded upon the belief—which was a mis takes one—that by some change in the organisation of the oouotry, working men could be placed in a different social position. That was • mistake ; they found it out, and lost all faith and hope in politics in consequence. Well, he thought that as they raised themselves in society, a strong political feeling would return—that which was at that moment felt by them would be felt more. But it . would pot be based upon the ground which that old feeling was—the idea that they could help themeelves— the irk& that they could obtain riches from other classes, or honour for themselves. It would be a much higher sod nobler feeling—the feeling that they had rights to enjoy, and duties to perform as free Euglielimen. and that they thought they ought not to be prevented from enjoying those rights and Inifilliog those duties. (Applause.) That was • feeling which from the information they obtained from books and newspapers, sod from other samosa, would be more and more otroogly felt and expressed. The time wor'd mime, and he did not believe it would he long hence, when they would attain to their true position in the country. When the time did come an immense edvantap would arise to them if they were not made richer, and it would lead parliament to do • great deal for those of their fellow. countrymen who were far worse off than they were, and who were suffering from evils which the least political arrangement could in some measure obviate. (Applause.) The Mexican deputation will have their audience of the Emperor Napoleon on Sunday sent, to " abash him, in the name of the whole Mexican people, for all le Lao dose for them, and to rel►te the result of their mimics to Miramar." A letter from Rome oontainl the following :- 01 have sot for some time spoken of the ex.Kiog of Naples and hie little court. Fidelity in misfortune is not the dominant virtue of courtiers In general, and of Neapolitans in particular. These latter are abandoning the court on a thousand pretexts, and their ranks are beoornieg thinner daily. Some write from Naples that their revenues do not come in. and that the presence of the master is indispensa ble ; others have lalrellital to terminate, or inheritances to obtain pomession of ; some again are undertaking journeys in the interest of the good cause, and arrive in Paris or Vienna, when they are drawn into the vortex of pleasure, sad soon forget the exiled nonarett In the Fames place THE NLTV ARCHBISHOP OF DUBLIN. A mighty war is raging among certain of our eostemporaries, in behalf of UM respective favourite &s -pinals for the vacant Men Mamie of Dublin, and the part tabs by the combatants is characteristic and curious. We have carefully abstained, as our readers are aware, from any attempt to relieve the minister upon whom the grave responsibility of the appointment rests, by fore stalling his decision. All we have ventured upon in the way of interference was to protest in the name of the Irish church against a selection which would be unsatisfactory to the vast majority of its members, lay and clerical, and mischievous in itself. It was our misfortune, in taking this course, to find ourselves in opposition to such champions of protestantlam as the DuGlin Evening Po►t, Cork Reporter, and the Irish Times; bat that we could not help. We may now, perhaps, do somewhat towards settling the controversy by announcing that we have reason to believe the question has been determined in favour of an English divine. We have been informal, as it seems to es upon credible authority, that the Rev. Canon Stanley will be the new arobbishop.—Dublia Bresitsg Mail. THE LOSS OF THE OBOROIA STEAMS& The following le the official report to the Privy Council tar Trade oo the for of this vowel: jfionLords,—l have the honour to report, for the lan d your lordships, the result of the inquiry which, in conjunction with Captains Hants and Baker, as nautical anummors, I have held into the loss of the Georgia, on Sable Island, on the 4th of August last. The Georgia was an iron screw steamer, built at Jarrow in 1863. She was of 2,876 grow and 2,414 registered tonnage, originally owned by Marrs. Faroe Brothers, of Liverpool, and trenderred on the 3rd August, as it appeared by her certificate of registry, to certain persons trading under the designation of the British sad American Southern Steam Navigation Company. She was commanded by Mr. Benjamin Gleadell, who held a certificate of oorr Potency as master, dated 9th August, 1853. The Georgia made the outward voyage from Liverpool to New York in perfect safety, and ailed 'gain from New York on the home ward voyeLe. in all respects thoroughly equipped, on the 31st July hat, drawing 23 feet 3 inches aft and 2C feet 7 lanes forw ard. She carried, in addition to her crew of 94 hands, 20 cabin and 27 engage passengers, and a very large and valuable general eazgo, sod was left in safety by the pilot off Sandy Hook shortly before 7 p.m. At aeon on the let Amon • good observation was ob- Weed, which plied the ship in lat. 40.58 N., and long. 70.27 W., a position to the northward of the Naa tuclut Lightship. The weather had been fair, with Lseing clouds, up to this period, but at L2O p.m. a dews t in. A cast of the lead was taken at 1.30 p.m., ' indicated shoal soundings, but the speed of the Ves sel was not slackened to take soundings or subsequently, and in tea minutes afterwards she struck on some outlying danger off the Nantucket Shona, the precise spot never having been ascertained from the density of the prevailing fog. She continued grounded for from five to six how; during which time some cargo was thrown overhand to lighten the ship, and eventually about 7 p.m. she floated. SSA was then made, the ship standing for the southward, but after proceeding about a mile the vessel sgeia took the ground but very shortly went o ff into 10 fathoms water. From this the muter proceeded cautiously, steering various Bourses,until she got into 22 fathoms, and then shaped his course S.E. and by E. till coon of the following day, soundings haring bees occasionally taken doing this time in 30 to 40 fathoms. From noon of the 2nd a more northerly course was shaped, ant continued until she struck on the north-west bar of Sable Island about 1 a.m. on the 4th, no soundings during that time having taken, a the vessel continuing under all plain and steaming at a rate of from 9 to 10 knots en ear. notwithstanding the fog, which continued nosh...fed. At daylight the fog lifted, and the master then discovered his position, when the second officer was sent on shore to find a good landing place, and to seek assistance, but he did Dot return to the ship till the following day, and the promo gers and the greater part of the luggage wen all safely landed in the course of the morning. Efforts were made daring the next 48 hours, the weather being moderate, by carry ing out both a kedge sod a bower anchor, to heave her off, but unsuccessfully, and some portion of the cargo was got upon deck, but on thrown overboard. The crew, at mid night of the sth, knocked off work, and early on the fol lowing morning went aft to the muter, end insisted upon their effects being landed, fearing, as they said, a change in the weather, which might render their position dan gerous. This request the master reluctantly complied with, but, notwithstanding, eventually in the course of the morning the engineers, fireman, stokers, and all hands, save the lint officer and four others who volunteered to re main with the master, left the ship. The impudence made on the mind of the court by the evidence on this point cer tainly wee, that the master did not possess either the neces sary confidence or control of the ship's company. At the same time, I feel bound to add, that the superintendent of the island bad slated, in the hearing of some of the men, that the ship was in • dangerous position, and could Dot be got off, while if it came on to blow she would probably go to pieces, and there would be considerable difficulty in landing. It appears to me only right to state thus much ; and as the dangers of the position must have been known to the master, it may amount for his not having opposed more strenuously, as it would seem to have been his duty to do, their departure from the ship ; and it may also be some extenuation for the men being so Nukes to leave. At 11.30 a.m. on the 6th the vessel floated, and re mined in 28 to 30 feet of water till 4.30 p.m., when she again grounded heavily. the six remaining hand ors board ' being usable, of course, to save the ship in the interval. When she thus again took the ground, it was supposed she settled down on her port anchor, as she began to make meter fast, and finding that nothing could be does , die Friday nUMB• , ' big, the 7th, the master and remaining hands left the vend with 10 feet of water in the forehold, six feet to the maid hold, and five feet in the afterhold. The ship was visited subsequently several times, and some of the stores end pro- visions were saved. In reviewing the circumstances of this ' catastrophe, lam compelled to pronounce the master in default. This ease adds another loss to the long catalogue of disasters which have coon Ad through the want rd common precaution. in not using the lead while running in a dense fag, end in this instance in an uncertainty as ' to the true course. Notwithstanding the warning num ' this latter point which the muter had received by his , ' ' first misadventures in grounding upon Nantucket Shoals, ' be took no further soundings after noon of the 2nd t - ' lying upon his nurse being correct and safe. Had be one ' atonally continued his soundings as he approached the Me, dian of Sable Island, he would have had timely warning of the approaching danger. Captain Bayfield, Royal Navy, speaking of this vicinity, says, is the " Sailing Directions for North America "—"To the southward (of Sable Island). 011 the cookery, the water deepens gradually eat for so many miles, that it would seem almost impossible for any vessel using common precaution to run on shore on that side, either ci. the Wand or its bars ; yet by far the greater number et shipwrecks have taken phin there, affording • ma proof et the culpable neglect of the sourdog lead so edam in the mercantile marine. Some of these vessels ewe on shore in fine. although foggy weather after reaming for many miles in shallow water, when one east of the I would have shove them their danger, and, in many cans, eared both life and property." Although, therefore, the master, to judge by his statement, thought be wen steering • course that would have taken him a long way to the southward of Sable Island, yet in the absence of observe non to corroborate his assumed position in a deer fog, the court cannot but condemn the neglect of the lead ; for even admitting that he was misled by his conipamee, under all the antendent circumstances, he should have taken warm ing and continued his soundings. In the judgment which I have, with the full coocorresoe of my aassisiors, to pro-- flounce upon the master, I have taken into consideratica that be was making his lest Atlantic voyage as cow. mender. But it is my duty to visit his conduct with a heavy censure, and I acoordiegly suspend the oartificate of Mr. Benjamin Glenda for 12 onleodar months from the date of this report.-1 have, Ice., T. S.

Forbes, the general manager of the London, Chatham, sad Dover Railway Company, writing to the Timm, urges that the metropolitan extension of the London, Cluith.on, and Dover Railway, by means of its junction with the Metro politan Railway in Fanringdoo-street, will afford direct railway commanicatios between the thickly populated districts through which the Metropolitan Midway rune, sod the whole South London districts, including Black friars, the Borough, Newington, Camberwell, Kenning ton. Brixton, Fermium. the Crystal Palace, Greenwich, Woolwicb, and the North Kent system. It will also directly connect the Great Northern and Midland rail ways with the South London district, with the systems of railways to Dover, Ramsgate, Margate, Brighton, Heatisp, and the continent of Europe. Parliament has already granted the necessary powers for effecting junctions with the Brighton and South Eastern railways, and the line has been so laid out, as to render a ' unction with that of the South Western easily practicable. The four lines of rails will extend from the south side of the Thames to Ferri ngd osetrest, sad arthogemeots are contemplated under which they will be continued to the existing stations of the Gnat Northers and Midland companies at King's awe. The additional lines will be so laid down es to admit of extension into the intended new statics of the latter company, which will be contiguous to that of the Great Northern, and it would also he quite possible to bring the London and North Widen into communication with them, so that the whole of the traffic between the north and the south, which is, after all, the great difficulty to be dealt with. could be sent over this jusctioa railway. GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY. —lt appears that the directors of this company are about allotting to the shareholders, in rateable proportion to their holding, 4t par rest. perpetual irredeemable preference shares to the 'mount of 1,227,562/. They state that it will Dot create any fresh or additional charge upon the revenues of the company, being issued in sutatitution of monies bor rowed from bankers and others, n the form of temporary loans, reviewable at short period. Though the state of the mossy market sod the =edit of the compeny have enabled the directors to borrow this money at 4 or 4$ per cent., yet the remotion:to and other expenses of frequent renewals have increased the yearly charge to an amount more than equal to 44 per cent. So then, when taken up am p -opmed, the interest payable upou that amount will be rather less than it Ins hitherto been. and the company will thus be secured against all 000tiagencies in respect thereof. The sliotment will be in the proportion of one new share of lel. for every 1001. ordinary stock or sheets in the company. The new shares are to be issued on the 29th isst., payable by six instalments, the last being on the 29th of September, 1864. The shares will be treated in respect of divideol as fully paid up from the 29th Met, beteg equivslent to • boom of 21. per cent. A discount at the rate of per cent. per mama is to be allowed on any instalments paid in advance.
