From Holland it is stated that arrangements arc in popes for the formation of a great railway coin 2Ewith a capital of 36 millions of florins. The is to place Holland in direct railway communi with Germany, Belgium, France, and the chief ports of Europe. Our French advices mention that the trade of the northern departments is at present much impeded by the commercial negotiations now pending between and Belgium. It is feared that the minis terial Maim in Belgium will yet further tend to paralyse commercial transactions, by extending the period of uncertainty. This was "continuation day" in the railway mar ket, and the members of the house were much en pged with preparations for the settlement, the melelat In this market being a very heavy one. It ins not seem, however, that much stock was carried mar to-day, the great bulk of the business appearing to be held over till to-morrow. A great deal of stock has also in the course of this account been thrown upon the market for realisation, not from any UM of confidence in a further rise, so far as we are itildisd to judge, but on the principle of "taking a plallt," and in many instances with a view to " get in " again on lower terms. The rates of continu ation have generally ruled light, and there has been soarcely an variation in them throughout the day.

The evidence of the medial attendants, and of a relation of the deceased, having been given, George Maughan, pointsmsn and signal keeper at the junction of the Clarence and Leeds Northern les, neap Stockier, esid—l was present on Wednesday whet tie collision took plaice bet area a goods train and a plassignow train. The passenger train was from Fcrryhill, and thee at Stockton at 6.40 p.m. The goods train bad live Tam three trucks, an engine and tender. The driver of the goods train was George Welborno ; Edward Calvert eves the driver of the passenger train, but I don't know the name of the fireman I have two signals in use at the junction, one is red on both aides, and the other red on am side and white on the other. I manage them both for tie Clarence and the Leeds Northern. The red and white we acts for the Leeds Northern, it is to let trains either la or out of the station along • curve betwesa be station and the junction. The other signal, which ped ea both sides, is used solely for the Clarence lies ; whin a train is coining down the Clarence from Pony kill ee lepool, we use the signal which is ell Ma aids—hp turning off the signal slantways—to let the teeth ems b. I take care to satisfy myself that the line is per >llW ear before I do that; if it is not clear I keep the Merl In. When the train whistles I tura the signal of if be We is clear. The passenger train on Wedaseday algid tabled about a quarter of a ail* ot, lawn to within 40 pods of the nial pew. The anteing are at the sane place as the sigmas. I tamed if the signal when the train first whistled. The train raa to within 40 or 50 yards of the signal post before I turned it on again to stop the psweager train and the goods train. The goods train was coming up from the goods station, and was about the same distanse tram the signal as the passenger train. The signal was for bob trains to stop, and I waived my hand as well to the wile train. The passenger train tried to e. into ; it Mae yin at the rate of seven or eight miles an hens eat before Uea bile pieta, which was about tbs speed at List plat, ea rather less. I have been a guard of a . peasenger train, and can judge of speed. Time is a strong iodine on the Clarence line towards beektes. I thought the ',anger train travelled 114 ha speed, after I showed the signal. I Doted no dif theme la as speed of the geode train. It was travelling at ahead be eine speed as the preenger train.

Great Northern., being scarce, were borrowers to , " backwardation." In face of the scarcity of this stock, it is singular that the price should have been depressed about 71. per cent. within less than a week. Unfavourable ru mours relative to the dividend are stated to be the cause of this fall. On French shares better rates of interest were submitted to, the general feel ing of the dealers being decidedly in favour of a further advance in some descriptions, and firmness in all. At four o'clock this afternoon the jobbers were bidding 251- for Strasbourg., 91 prem. for Paris and Lyons, and 2 to 21 prem. for the Paris, Caen, and Cherbourg shares just 'brought out here. These last named shares have been done on the Paris Bourse at 50 francs prem. each. The other railway projects lately brought out have also been received with great favour on the Bourse, including the Western and Grand Junction of France, and the Lyons and Avignon. In the miscellaneous share marke: we hear of en quiries for the undermentioned descriptions, viz.: Australasia Bank, Alliance Fire and Life, Assam Tea, Law Life, Thames Plate Glass, Vauxhall Bridge, East L ondon, West Middlesex and Grand Junction Water Works, East and West India Dock, London Dock, Crown Assurance, General Steam Navigation, Guardian Assurance, Royal Exchange Assurance, St. Katharine Dock, Canada Land, Ken net and Avon Canal, and Imperial Fire Shares. The appreciation of the various chases of miscellaneous stocks to which we have on several occasions drawn attention, is now progressing very rapidly, the up ward movement of railway shares and the high prices of the government funds causing many parties of limited income, but having funds to invest, to turn their attention more decidedly to a participation in the profits which are being realised by many of the joint stock industrial undertakings, which, although paying well, are not usually well thought of by others than permanent investors, owing to there being at times no ready market to be found for them. At periods like the present, however, when the demand preponderates so largely over the sup ply, buyers readily offer, bit of course there is now little disposition on the part of holders to realise, as an inducement to which enhanced prices have in most cases to be conceded. This movement of in vestment seeking capital into the general share market is calculated to have a good effect, as, besides raising to their proper value many stocks that have been unduly depressed, it will tend to give encourage ment to the promoters of fresh projects of an utili tarian character, the demand for which may aid in gradually relieving the market of its un e mpl o y e d surplus without violently driving largo masses of ca pital into any ono particular branch of enterprise, the effect of which LI generally for a time very detri mental to the interests of trade. The market for Bank shares this week has been very active, large transactions having taken place, and the general tendency of prices of these securities is decidedly upwards.

DIE YARMOUTH ELRCTIoN.—A public dinner was held at the Corn Exchange on Monday last, in honour of Admiral Sir Charles Napier and Mr. W. T. M'Cullagh, the two defeated candidates in the liberal interest. About 100 of the above gentlemen's friends and supporters sat down to dinner under the presidency of J. W. Shelly, Bsq., and the vice-presidency of W. N. Burroughs, Esq. The company would have been much larger but for the high price of the tickets . The gallant admiral was unavoidably absent, but his colleague acknowledged their joint health, in an eloquent speech beinAto w atly interrupted by bursts of applause. Mr. MT ha th e course of his remarks, took occasion to refer to extraordinary fstatementa which had appeared vespeethsg the way in which his elec tion had heem meat t a hlit igipesred in the organ of the tory pariy, and the aspersion with indignation and in unequi terms.
