.11, 0 ••••• and against the injustice of the proposed infliction." The Brighton Gum than : " Will the tradesmen of ' Brighton, suuggling to script together their 2001. or 3001. a year to bring up their families decently, be pleased to pay 1151. or 151. annually to the government in order to gratify the professional zeal of the Duke of Wellington end the pecuniary greed of Mr. Pigou ? Will the annuitants, will the landowners like this Will the farmers like their tax t) be increased from yd. to sd. for the amusement of the gentry, or in order to provide commiseions for their sone ? We thought that the property tax, and still more, the income tax, was so much reprobated that no minister under the fear of losing his place, if not his head. would have ventured to increase the tax in a time of peace ; but the English are a patient, government-loving people. They bore the first infliction ro cheerfully, so unrepiningly, that Lord John is quite sure they will beer the increase and repetition of the dose with equal placidity. Sir Itoliert Peel sweetened it by some free trade : the whir do not pretend to disguise it. They give it us for its own sweet rake, and the merchant and shopkeeper who were reconciled to it by a promise of cheap food, the tanner being then taxed to enrich the other classes, wiz now have to swallow it unalloyed end unadulterated with a simile benefit. The fanners will have to pay the increase xith lower prices than they have of late experienced. The merchants and dealers will have to pay the increased charge out of reduced incomes, and all classes will Lind the hand of the government increase iu weight as their own strength decays. Jeveral objections have been made to the inequality of the tae, to the palpable injustice of taxinry income as heavily as property; but the ministers have neither time nor inclination to remove this injustice, to remedy the inequality, and they reimpose the tax, increased in amount, in all its hasty, naked, and original deformity. At least they might have adapted it -omewhat to the circum stances of the different classes ; but that trembles not them. They expect by it to gain the 3,500,0 W. they have wasted or want to waste, and they leave no doubt whatever that the people will quietly open their pockets to the fingers of the tax•gathcrer. Next year, as the customs and excise duties fall off still more than they have done in th e y nc ear ust pawed, there will be a necessity for still further ireas j ing the property tax, which wry seems to be permanently ins posed on the country and likely to be inzreased front year to year. If the public do not desire this, it is their duty to stop the increase at once, to support Mr. Hume and 31r. Cobden in reducing the army, navy, and ordnance estimates, and in compelling the ministers to keep, like other honest people, their expences within their income."— " Lord John Russell (says the Surrey Gazette) wishes to im pose the property and income tax for five years longer, the fleet two yea's of that period to be blessed with a levy of fire instead of three per cent. The professional man, the mer chant, the large tradesman, the government annuitant, the private gentleman of largo fortune, the clerk with limited income, the duke with his daily thousands, and the small trader with his insufficient earnings, are all to row in the same boat—for each and all there is but one fate—to pay into the public purse one shil ling out of every twenty which they may be fortunate enough to earn or receive in the way of inc. .me. The humble medical practitioner, toiling day and night to support his family in the most moderate pmitiou. most Laud over, out of his 1001. per annum, the sum of O.'. to the Exchequer. The physician must pay a per centage up la his every fee, the clergyman a like contribution upon hi= every sermon. The five per cent. will literally ' come home to every man's hearth.' Without touching the question as to how far ouch a tax is justifiable in a time of peace, even admitting the existence of a great einergency—withreat entering into any comparison between the merits of dir, et and indirect taxation —the principle of income tax as levied during the last six years, and as it is proposed to be levied during the next five, strikes us its wholly and entirely indefensible. We allude to the equal levy made upon incomes derived from personal exertion, whether of body or mind, of brain or sinew —upon incomes derived from trade, and upon these arising front realised property. We can cor.cove nothing more un jusst, nor more unjustifiable. While the impost was merely temporary, the great bulk of the middling classes, although fully and bitterly appreciating the injustice, nevertheless *wonted to it, on the ground that the difficulty of achieving an equitable arrangement was perhaps beyond the value of the good to he aecomeished by it in so limited a period as that first nroposed. But now that the income tax assumes • fixed and permanent form the case is materially changed, and we can hardly conceive that the public will patiently submit to its iron pressure without strong and energetic attempts to free themselves." Six MEN WERE DROWNED TN THE TYNE on Tuesday. They were workmen employed preparing the coffer dams and erecting gears for the high level bridge across the river at Newcastle. The sufferers were Robert ?Mts. Michael Jones, Shotton Charlton, Petc r M.Fane, a labourer named King, and Thos. Humble. The latter had o,ly been engaged at the works within half an hour of the accident. NORFOLK. REPRESENTATION OF YARMOUTH. The local paper says : " Mr. GAdamid has again made his appearance in our twin, fully determined again to contest the honour of being its representative in parliament." fftne Tin: QUEEN'S GOLD MEDAL.—The gold medal assigned by her Majesty to the Institute of British Arehi rear. for the purpose of giving it to the architect who liss most distinguished himself in the several walks and styles of his profession in this or in my other country, was given on Monday last, to C. R. Coekerell, the professor of archi tecture in the Royal Academy. Nor are we inclined to quarrel with the selection. /ow in this country, since Jones and Wren, have done more for architecture in its !argent sense, by maniple, by Nesmith, and by a general though a recent sympathy with the so-called gothic archi tecture. Eight foreigners and eight Englishmen were chosen by the council to select from. We could wish, how ever, that continental competitors hail been omitted to have selected a foreigner had been union.snal, while the selection of en Englishman by a jury of English architects seems a petty triumph unworthy of that high spirit which should guideus on all occasions. This is the first medal which her Ma jesty has given. Let her give others, and give them frequently, not to architecture alone, but to all the learned arts. and abe will do much to reward and create exertion. Her Majesty's uncle, King George IV., was the only sovereign in Eng land who gave rewards of this descriktion : Caroline, queen of George 11. promised a medal to Swift, which he never got, and Charles 11. gave " The Medal " to Dryden IS a sub ject for a poem, and when the poem was finished gave him othing more. 'Matt. ROYAL SOCIETY OF MUSICIANS—This institution held its 110th anniversary festival, in Freemasons' Hall, on Tuesday evening. The Royal Society of Musicians is one of the oldest and most valuable benevolent associations in England. It derived its origin from an interest ing circumstance. Two eminent musicians happened to see two fine boys destitute in the street, and finding that they were the orphan children of a brother musician, they were so deeply impressed with the precar i ou s situation of their profession, that they conceived the idea of creating a fund for the purpose of rescuing their unfortunate brethren, and their widows and families, from the ills of poverty. The society was established in 1735. At I the heed of the list of its original members stands the illus trious name of Handel, who during his life conferred on it many benefits, and at his death bequeathed to it a thousand pounds. It numbers amongst its members every great English musician who has flourished during the last century, and not a few of the foreign artiste who base made England their residence. The bequests: of some of its professional members have been singularly muni ficent. Among them there is one by Signora Storace of 1,0001., and another by Mr. Crosadill, the celebrated violon cellist, of the same amount. The donations of the royal family during the whole existence of t he societ y , have been most liberal, and have never been more so than at the pre sent time. The nobility and gentry, too, have done their part ; and the more wealthy portion of the nresent mem bers of the profession (among whom we are glad to observe the names of some of the most distinguished foreigners now resident in England) are generous in their contributions. The society's funds are lar g e, consisting partly of the an annua l proceeds of funded property, dpo donations, rtly of the contributions of its members, subscriptions, and the profit of its annual concert. With these means, it maintains in a state of comfort eleven mem bers who are dependent on it for support, thirty-three widows and sixteen children ; and there are nine boys and girls who have been apprenticed to respectable trades or callings, with each of whom 2 5 1. premium has been paid. One feature in the management of this society is worthy of particular notice, and of imitation by every establishment of a similar kind. It is thus described by Dr. Burney : No charitable institution can be more out of the reach of 'Muse, erubea.alement, or partiality, regulated with more csre, integrity, and economy, or have its income so immediately derived from the talents and activity of ite own members, than this. There is no lucra tive employment belonging to the society, except a small salary to the secretary and collector, so that the whole produce of benefits and atitscrip ions is net, and clear of all deduction or drawback, for the governors defray all the expenses of their various meetings out of their own pockets. The meeting of yesterday was more than usually large The Dake of Cambridge, the president of the society, prevented by indisposition from taking the chair, and his place was supplied by Mr. Palmer, the member for Berk shire, a lover of music, and an old friend of the society, who performed the duties of chairman very . much of the evening to the satis faction of the company. The promengs were of the usual kind. The toasts were intermingled with excellent musical performances, both vocal and instrumental. An addition to the pre-arranged routine of toasts was made in consequence of the pretence of Berlioz, whose health was pro posed by the chairman with excellent feeling as a distinguished representative of the musicians of France; coplime short nt which M. Berlioz acknowledged very gracefully in m a addrss, deliveed in French. The statement of the affairs of th e e society r was made, as usual, by Mr. Horsley, who read the list of donations made that evening. Their sum amounted to 4581. The principal pieces performed were , Stafford Smith's four-part glee, " Return, blest days;' Horsley's " Cold is Cadwallo's tongue -" Wilbye's madrigal, " Flora gave me faired flowers ;" Carter's ballad, " Stand to your guns," sung by the veteran Brahma with astonishing fire emu vigour, one received with acclamations; and Hatton's beautiful song, " Day and night." exquisitely sung by Mias Dolby, and vehemently encored. The whole ar rangements of the meeting, conducted by Mr. Parry, the honorary secretary, were excellent, and contributed to pro duce a most agreeable evening. UNIVERSITY AND CLERICAL.

NORTHERN CIR ' CUIT.—LANCASTER Feu. 22. I CUAMA OP MUSIMIL W. Myers stood indicted for the wilful murder of William Johnson, at Dalton.in-Fue nem, by stabbing him with a knife.—The prisoner and de ceased who had been intimate from cil dh ood, were also fellow. , labourers on the Furness Railwa h y. Or, the 2nd of October lut, their fortnightly par-day, Myers, it &Mors, was somewhat the worse for 1, nor, and on Johnson, at a late hour the same even in g , coming down the street, some quarrel arose, and a fight ensued. Myers was thrown both in the first and second round. Johnson, who was leaning over him, then exclaimed, " I'm bleeding, I'm stabbsd." He was taken to a neighbour's house, and on Mr. Hill, a surgeon at . Dalton, being called in, was found to have received three serious wounds, which appeared to have been I inflicted with some sharp-edged instrument, one in the inner I part of the arm, extending in an oblique direction to the shoulder, and dividing the main artery; another between the eleventh and twelfth ribs of the left side ; and the third on the upper part of the back, behind the right shoulder-blede. It was found nectusry to amputate the arm, which was done under the influence of chloroform, and deceased seemed likely to recover, but inflammation from the wound in the side afterwa rds supervened, and he died in about ten days after the affray. A post mortens examina tion showed that the lungs had been slightly perforated by the cut or stab in the (vide. Thin, in the surgeon's opinion, was the immediate cause of death.--Thin was the care for the prosecution.—His Lordship, in summing up the evidence, said that in order to constitute the offence of murder, it must be shown that the prisoner had the knife drawn before the battle began ; but if the jury were of opinion that the knife was drawn in the heat of blood, after the battle had com mented, it would be their duty to return a verdict of man slaughter.—The jury, after a moment's deliberation, found the prisoner Guilty of . ntanattoghter.—The sentence of the court was, that the prisoner should he imprisoned and kept to hard labour for two years. NIGHT POACHING.—/e. BiCkerSinfe, 20, J. Montgomery, 34, T. Draper, 40 , and I t. IVri o ht, 25, were charged with having, at Rutfori, being armed with guns, entered the lands of Sir Thos. O. llesketh, Bart. (the present High Sheriff of Lancashire), for the purpose of taking game. Me. Seger held the brief for the prosecution. The prisoners were undefended. The case rested almost entirely on the evidence of an approver named Pickerbank, who stated that on the eight of the 12th of November last, he went, in company with the prisoners and three other men mai n custody, to Sir Thomas Hesketh's park, for the purpose of taking game. Two of them had guns, and the other six were armed with large bludgeons. They ranged the covers. and shot nine pheasants. The firing attracted to the spot Sir T. Ilesketh's keeper and other servants, to the number of thirteen. The poachers, however, showed fight, Wright exclaim ' ing, at the same time, " Let un kill them all !" Sir T. Heaketh's men took to their heels, though not before the poachers had shot a dog belonging to the keeper, and seriously bruised them with some atones, with which they hind come provided from the adjoining lane. A reward of 251. had been offered for the detection of the parties, end about a month after this notice appeared is the newspapers, Pickerbank "peached." Verdict, Guilty. His lordship, after a feeling widens to the prisoners on the probabl consequencee, if Wright's threat had been carried out, sentenced the latter to nerd labour and imprisonment in Preston House of Correction for eighteen menthe, and Bicherataffe, Montgomery, and Draper. to a year each ; sod at the expiration of that time all four to find sureties, themselves in 201., and a responsible householder in 101., for their good behaviour for a year more; and in default of such sureties to be further imprisoned till they were - - procured. ANOTHER POACHING CAIIR.—J. Brown, 44, and J. IVoods, 25, pleaded not guilty to the charge of having rd en tered certain lands at Clayton-ludale, the property of La Table'', armed with gum and other offensive weapons, un the night of the 12th November last, for the pur wa p s o se of taking game. Mr. Monk state d the case, which ef a similar complexion to the preceding one. On the evening of the 12th of November last, the prisoners formed part of a large gang of poachers, who were ranging the preserves of George Warren, Baron de Tabley, in quest of game. The keepers and assistants of Lord Tabley, to the number of • dozen or more, came up with them in a meadow and succeeded in capturing Brown and Woods, after • sort of running scuffle. The poachers w. re armed with guns and bludgeon., but eon lined their offensive tactics to pelting Lora de Tablefa men with stone:.—His Lordship thought there could be no doubt as to the identity of the prisoners, as they were caught in the act —The jury returned • verdict of Guilty against both prisoners, who were sentenced—Brown, who had been four times previously convicted of poaching, as well so of burglary and other offences, to imprisonment and hard labour in Preston House of Correction for melte months, and to find surnie. in 401., at the expiration of that term, for another year, or to oe imprisoned in default until such susetica were f o rthcoming ; and Wooda nine months. POLICE.-YESTERDMr. MANSION-ROUSE. —THE Ross EltT ON THE SOUTH EASTERN RAILWAT.—Edward Rowe, Elizabeth Rowe, his mother, and David agylris, who were some days ago charged, the first with having stolen a 501, note, a '2Ol. note, and other notes for 151., on the South Eastern Railroad, from a box in one of the company's vans, and the other two with having received the notes, well knowing that they had been stolen, were re-examined.—The Lord Mayor, having stated that he found the case did not come within hi. jurisdiction, directed that the prisoners should be handed over to the authorities of the county in which the robbery had been committed. THE WILL FdROEHY.—SEICIDE OF THE ACCI:B2I).—The several witnesses summoned to appear to give evidence in the ease of Lieul. Bowen, who was some days ago charged with harlot forged a will, attended before the Lord Mayor to give additional evidence.—The Lord Mayor stated that he had received a letter from the keeper of Giltspur-street prison, briefly representing that the unfortunate person had destroyed himself—The report about the Mansion-house was, that the prisoner had contrived to twist hi. shirt into a sort of rope, and tie it tightly round his throat. There was no doubt whatever of his guilt as to the charge of forging the will. GUILDHALL.—FORGERT.—W. EdtoOrd• was finally examined, charged with knowingly getting a bill for Vit., bearing • forged endorsement, discounted at Mr. Tucker's, in Nicholas-lane. The details of the case have already ap • peared.—Mr. Alderman Gibbs committed him for trial. MARYLEBONE.—Citaitoes AOAINST A RUSTAND.— Mr .J . A. Carr, surgeon, of 9, Shelton-street, Paddington, was again placed at the bar, and the investigation of the charges against him occupied the court for some hours. his wife accused him of striking her, and turning her out of the house; also with desiring to confine her in a lunatic asylum; and finally she alleged that he sought to administer to her a dangerous dose of laudanum. Much evidence was given,which went to show that Mr. Carr was himself subject to fits of in unity, and that his wife was perfectly sane. It was proved that he had been confined in the Bethnal-green lunatic asylum.—The defendant throughout the proceedings denied having bad any intention of injuring his wife, and alleged that his sole object was that of restoring her to • proper state of mind.—Mr. Broughton, in order to obtain some additional evidence, adjourned the case till Monday next.—The de fendant, who said that he should not put in bail, but was willing to stand committed until the day named, was locked up. SOUTHWARK.—ALLEGED CIILIWII OF ATTEMPT TO Poisox.—Mrs. Elizabeth Lefton was charged with attempt ing to poison her husband.—Mrs. Elizabeth Moor stated that the prisoner and her husband occupied apartments in her house for eleven months previously to their removal to Chislehurst. That while they were lodging with her Mr. Lefton was in the habit of drinking to excess, and while in a state of intoxication, she has frequently seen the prisoner give him powders, either mired in rum and water or milk. That after taking the powders she ob served that Mr. Litton was seized with violent sickness and retching, and has seen him vomit • quantity of blood, and she (witness) spoke to the prisoner on those °eel- , sions, and told her that they seemed to do him more harm than good, and said that if she continued to administer them she should acquaint Mr. Letton of the fact when he was sober. The prisoner then informed her that a Mr. Goodall had supplied her with the receipt for the powders, and added that she gave them to her husband for the purpose of doing him good, and carrying off the effesta of what ha drank. Witness had seen the prisoner give ber husband two of the powders in the course of a day, and both she (witness) and her servant have fetched the powders from the shop of Mr. Freddie, in the neighbourhood, at the prisoner's request. — Esther Moody, servant to the last witness, stated that the prisoner was in the habit of sending her to the shop of a Mr. Freddie for the powders.--Mr. Freddie stated that he had supplied the last witness with powders, which consisted of tartar emetic, each paper containing four grains of that article ; that he had gtven the last witness two of the powders in one day, on its being represented to him that the former powder was loot ; that he bad seen Mr. Litton upon one oc casion, and that he was then under the influence of liquor, and, at the request of the prisoner, he had given him a dose of tartar emetic, in order to eradicate the effeets of the liquor. When witness saw Mr. Litton he was very violent, and he thought the does he had prescribed would compose him, and be of service in counteracting the effects of the liquor.—Mr. Cottiogham : Did you, as a medical man, consider that it was safe to administer two powders, such as those described, in ono des to a patient ;—The witness replied that he should not have esnt two powders in one day, if it had not been represented that the former one was not administered.—Mr. Cettingbam mid that he considered the conduct of the witness highly censurable for sending powders of the description to Mi. Litton by a girl like the witness.—Elizabeth Moor, the daughter of the first witness, stated that while the prisoner and her husband were lodging at her mother's house she went into their apartmentione day, at a time when Mr. Letton war drinking a glass of rum and water. But when he put the glass to his lips and tasted the contents, he said, address• in witness, his wife being out of the room at the time, , s. Betsy, taste this; I think my wife is trying to poison me." She added that she did not sin the prisoner mix the rum and water ; and after Mr. Wien had used the above words she (witness) left the room without making any remark.— Mr. Percival, a relative of Mr. Litton, semi that the Mecum. stance of the prisoner administering such doses to her hus band, in his estimation t showed th was at she had a d evide esign nce , as upon his life ; that at press n then no f the prisoner had only been taken into custody that morning; that the powders bad been analysed by a chemist, who had given it as his opinion that the a dm inistration of two of them on the same day was highly dangerous to the person to whom they were given.—Policeman Wald stated that be awe. i headed the prisoner that morning at Chislehurst, in Kent, ' and that having st ated to her the nature of the charge, elm merely said she was innocent, and willingly accompanied him to town.—Mr. Cottingham said that the charge against the accused at a me nd that a more serious aspect than W now presented, and that at present ha shoal not Call upon her to make any statement, the mote particularly u she had no pre fenional adviser in attendance. Under all the circum stances. be should admit the primer to bail, in two sure ties of 501. each to appear again an Monday. Bail was put in. MONEY MARKE T. WEDNESDAY EVINIMO. Tee public curiosity was gratified this morning by the early appearance of the Daily News with all the eventful intelligence from Paris in the forenoon of yesterday, much in advance of the other morning papers. The newsvenders about the Royal Exchange were speedily cleared of large supplies of the journal, and fresh parcels as they could be procured. It was the subject of much surprise in Stock Exchange circles to find that, notwithstanding the gravity of the events of wh ich Paris was the theatre,l and the threatening aspect presented by a vast population all in movement, the French funds not only rema i ne d stationary but had even slightly improve d. It should be observed, however, in explanation of the seeming anomaly, that prices had been previously falling for some time past, under the apprehensi ai of the troubles which might be expected to arise out of the great reform question, and the King's ill-advised speech. The gre at . proposed reform banquet of the opposition deputies of the French Chambers had bees freely speculated upon, end discounted at the Bourse, as almost certain, if held, to eventuate in not only a great popular manifestation, but a popular explosion. The tardy prohibition of the banquet by the govern ment was, therefore, calculated, as conceived, to diminish the chances of any dangerous outbreak, and upon this prospect it was, of course, that the slight improvement in the rentes may be accounted for. The effect of the Paris news upon the funds here ' was by no means of that exaggerated nature which speculators bad anticipated, and perhaps acted npon. Consols from 89 to 1, which were the quotations yesterday, declined to 88a to t, but at the close of business had recovered to 881 to 1. The settlement of the account, which comes on to-morrow, and the preparations for it consequent, were the chief business of the day with dealers and brokers. It can hardly fail to be a heavy affair, from the extent of the trans actions, and the fluctuations which have occurred in i prices. Reduced Threes were 88; to !. Three-and a-Quarter per: Cents., 89; to L. ang Annuities, 9to 1-16. Exchequer Bills due in March, 235. to 1275. premium ; the June bills, 299. to 325. India Bonds, 10s. to 15s. premium. Bank Stock, 199 to 201. The belief appears to gain ground that the nego. tiations for peace are further advanced between Mexico and the United States than is generally sup- i posed, and under this impression Mexican bonds have ; rather found favour within the last few days. Some parcels have to-day obtained 191, and the prices may s be quoted from 19 to 1. In other foreign securities 1, there was little alteration to notice, and few dealings. Spanish Fives were called 201 to 1; the Threes, IC, 32 to 4; Passive, 41 to 1. Portuguese, 251 to 261. Venezuela, 39 to 40. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per 1.: Cents., 54 to 1 ; the Fours, 851 to v The advices from the cotton manufacturing districts come more unfavourable. Yesterday's market at Minchester showed a greater depression, with a de crease during the week of the number of hands and of mills in full work. The uneasiness about the short stock of cotton on hand, which places the price pretty much at the discretion of a few large holders, appears' however to be the chief cause of the discouraging state of trade, and not any particular absence of de mand. The manufacturers, though taxed in higher rates for the raw material, cannot obtain any propor tionate advance upon their yarns and fabrics. As however there appears to be no deficiency of cotton in the United States, where the crop and stocks are fixed I at a large estimate, it is to be hoped the disadvantage E complained of will be remedied shortly, by large sup- 1 plies coming forward. Shipments have been kept st„ back mainly through the distrust still atta chin g in e ' the Union to bills on England, which was an obstacle to purchues. The Dutch Mint have published a notice of the , 1 number and amount of coins struck off for the ac count of the state during the course of 1847, accord ing to the law for calling in the old coins, and issuing a new coinage. The descriptions of coins strack off are as follow : Florins. g 9,39:075 ris.dollors, or pines of 21 florins, amount 23,497,937 of 8,395,519 florin pieces 8,395,519 21 1,111,,582 half.ttorino 2,001,000 halt.ceuts Told daring. The government had issued a notice that the holders of the old coins, forming the subdivisions of t the old pieces of 2 florins 60 cents, called Zecutesche Ryks-daalders, might have them exchanged for the ( 1 new coinage for their current value at the Bank of fl Amsterdam, or the different tax-collectors' offices throughout the country, and so also the paper money created by the law of December 1843 may be ex changed. On and after the 12th of March next the 4 old coins are to cease from circulation, and will no longer be taken at the' public offices, nor can anyone be bound to accept them in payments.

Rein.—INJUNCTION Tel RESTA-AIX THE SALE OF SI:GAR DISSOLVELL—Mr. Rolt and Mr. Roundell Palmer moved in this case to dissolve an injunction awarded by the court in December last, to restrain the dehndants, Messrs. Reid, Irving, and Co ., from taking possession of, or selling. certain cargoes of auger in the bill men tioned, and from receiving the proceeds arising by the sale thereof, and from selling or disposing of such further cargoes already or hereafter to be shipped or con signed by Messrs. Adam and Co., being part of the crops or produce specifically appropriated to and charred with the payment of a bill of 6,6001. • and also to restrain the London D o ck Company and the Ea st India Dock Company from de livering to Messrs. Reid, Irving, and Co., any of the sugars ' arrived by the ships Thomas Bl y th, Warlock, and Eclipse. The bill stated that the before-mentioned sugars were assigned by Messrs. Adam and Co., who were agents of Messrs. Reid, Irving, and Co., in the :Mauritius, and that blessrs.Adam snaCo. had drawn the bill or 6,0001., which was in the following form :--" Port Louis, f Sept. 22, 1847.- -At six months sight of this our second of exchange, pay to tLe order of Messrs. James Richardson and Company the suns of 6.0001. value received, account crop 1847 and 1548, and place the same, without further advice, to account of your obedient servants, ADAM & CO."—lt was also stated that this bill was endorsed over to Messrs. Richardson, Wood and Co., of the Mauritius, who were the agents of the plaintiffs, Mears. James Richardson and Co., who carried on business as merchants at Glasgow. The bill wa s presented by the plaintiffs to Messrs. Reid, Irving, an d Co., who refused payment thereof. it was alleged by the plaintiffs that the cargo of sugars arising from the crops of 1847 and 1818 was specifically charged with the payment of the bill of 6,0001., but that Messrs. Reid, Irving, and Co., intended to sell tho sugars a n d cep apply the produce to their own purposes. For the defen it was stated that Mewrs. Adam and Co. were their agents, and were very largely indebted to them for advances made In respect of such consignments as might from time to time be made by the Messrs. Adam; that the advances on inns were, in fact, made in anticipation and on the security of the growing or next ensuing crops of sugar ; that the defendants bad consequently a lien upon such crops in respect of the money . due to them, and thatof the the su gar was not specifically appropriated to the payment bill of 6,0001.7111 r. Bothell and Mr. Rogers appeared in sup port of the injunction.—The Vice-Chancellor said the only question was whether the words " account crop of 1847 and 1819," which occurred in the bill, had necessarily created a lien upon the crops of sugar in favour of the holders of the bill of 6,0001. His Honour did not think that these words were sufficiently expliat for that purpose, and the defendants, by their answer, had give n an explanatory mousing to the transaction. He should therefore dissolve the injunction, and with costs. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. Net Faire.—Before Sir F Pollock, CB., and a Special Jury. MIDDLETON V.

Under this head, on Seurclay, a typoeraphical error oc curred, which we thought too obvious for special correction, but several correspondents having directed our att.ntion to it, we now think it advisable to point it out. On the question whether the shareholders of the Great Western ltallway should divide seven or eight per cent, it was print d, that the majority had decided in favour of the higher rate of in terest.

MEETINGS.-SoUrit Weir-S.-I/elf-yearly Meeting.- London, Feb. 23.-Mr. Charles Riuoell fe the chair.-The directors' report Mated that the call made in July lam had furnished the mans of meetthgall liabilities withoutauspending the works in progrem, or materially retarding the completion of the line. Application had been made to parliament this amnion for power to raise the rate of in terest on calla paid up from 4to 5 per cent. The engineer (Mr. Brunel) reported that of the Swansea tuned about onmthird bed been completed. The heavy woeks between Reath and Swansea were also in a forward date. The Newport tunnel and adjoining works were nearly completed. The rock cuttings in the neighbour hood of Chepstow were also in a forward condition, and generally the works between Chepstow and Cardiff were in a state to allow art being completed and opened this year, should it be comidered desirable, and to Swansea in the following spring. The receipts to the 31st of December last were 882,402/. 30. 3d., the payments 694,932/, 16e. 74., leaving a balance in band of 187,401466. 6,1.-The Chairman ob served, that so the pressure in the money market had paned away, the period had arrived when it was desirable on all accounts to men forward the works with as much activity an possible. With this view the directora proposed to makes. call of 5/. per share' in April next, which would bring Into operation the borrowing powers powered by the company. After that call he hoped the proprietors would be relieved from further calla. A small portion of the line I could be opened on this tide of Swansea in the pr went year. In answer to questions the Chairman said that it was Mr. Brunel'. opinion that the work, would be completed within the estimate, and that very little extension of time would be required for the completiou of the line. With regard to the payment of the rent, it did not begin from the completion of the line ; but as tut as any portions were opened they were worked, and the profits of working them were paid to the South Wales Company, after the interest was provided for. With respeettio Lord Menteagle'e proposition for a government in sem. tor, although it might seem an invidious thing for direetors to elijort to an audit of their accounts, he thought it would be most objectionable in practice and on principle. The experience which they had had heretofore of government interference was not ouch as to make them wish for an extenaion of it. The govern ment and the legislature were 'making every effort to Y. cream the exaetions upon the railway companies, and If government officer were appointeet it would only be for the porpcee of looking out for thole sources on which they could im pose mash exactions. With respect to the place for the we're termi nus, that warn subject of the deepest importance to the South Wales Company. Fikkgard had been originally fixed on, but St. Das id's and Abeemaur having been suggeated as better places, Captain Claxton was desired, under the (Unction of Mr. Brunel, to make experiments as to which would afford the quickest transit to Ireland, aad their opinions were that the latter place was the beet steam-packet harbour and afforded the beat communication to Ireland. They had not finally decided however, and would not do no till they had thoroughly con sidered the question. With regard to that portion of the line which went to Milford, there was no intention of abandoning it, but com mon seem dictated that they should first pay attention to the main line from Gloucester to Fishgard or Abermaur, whichever was finally fixed on as the terminus.-The report was adopted. TENBY, SLUNDERSPOOT, AND SOUTH WALEB.-Ealf yeast y Meeting. -London, Feb. 23.-Mr. Wm. Chadwick in the eluur. -The report stated, that, owing to tke late pressure in the money market, the South Wales Railway bad not proceeded so rapidly on was anticipated, in comequence of which, the directors of the Tenby Railway availed th,maelvesof the powersof the act, and applied for an nof time.
