A large number of debtors to the estate were examined as to thew sets ute SOMC proofs were tendered he friendly so ya IS. against the owparaee e-tote of nJr. 'Williams, sen., which have claimed to be paid in full, on the ground of his Islas the treasurer. On inveatication, howevi r, it appear, d that tb• aunties were deposited with the bank, and not with the tr, :nun r. The chain to have pay ment in full was. therefore, rejected, and the amount was - admitted as a proof. toNll,tc situ S01"111 WI..TLEN It.tILWAT COM etx re sort which is to be read at the special meet lite of this company on Tuesday next, gives au outline of tin arrangement proposed to be entered into respect Me the con-true.ion of the new line from Salisbury to Ester. It is to the following effect:—" That the South Weaterei Railway Company, woo are to find none of the 'Need fee making the extension line from S lisbury to Emu r, will, when the new hoe is handed over to them in a thoroughly complete state, agree to work it (with their sent refiner stock), at 50 per cent. of the receipts. That be. pad tins the South Western Company will agree to divide 'madly with the new eumpany the Oct profits of the midi tlunal western nettle which the new line brings to the now rxi :ion lines of this company at Salisbury : This arrange. meet i to continue for 2.1 years, unlearn in the meanwhile tlu tc,tim of the new company, arising from its own line, te-sitar with the contribution of the South Westeni Compute. shall amount to mere than *ix per cent. oia 1.109,0001. (the guaranteed cost), in which event the tontribution of the South Western Company shall be n data el to inch a sum us will make up sex per cent. The hue proposed to be worked by the Smite Western C 01, 11 .4 17 commences at the authorised terminus of the llasinpitoke cad Salisbury extension of the London and south Western Railway Company, and ends at the leonin e : o k a y, E xeter. It will Lo tt9 miles to length ; and ft's propirad to construct it with 10 miles of double and 79 reit,. of augle way, with Land and bridges sufficient fur the ' addition of a second line of way at any future period. The liar will tie eosistruct. ,1 to the satisfaction of an engineer Ili/pointed by this company, and the engagements of this company with regard to it will not take Ofect until it is b over in COlUplete working order. The ea iwoditure of r .Pital on the part of the Loudon and South 'Western Railway Company would be limited to the completion of the unii..ished branch from B.uingstoko to Salisbury, and presiding additional stocking stock fur the new teethe, which t` ls aglitun probably amounting to between 4d0,0001. and o'relshae, would constitute the whole outlay of this company t H • euring the traffic 01'120 additional miles of railway. It is nercssary to mention Wilt another proposal, emanating f r Metier of great respectabilit ti and local influence, has shoo leen submitted ta 6°1141, playing for the counte nant. and Ado( thi. compa n y i n he construction of an ex trusion of the coast lino from Dorchester to Bridpoit and lecter, parliamentary notice fur which has been given. The !lire clots were melee a hope that this proposal might have bet n aaticably combined with the plans of the promoters of the central line ; but :to their wishes in this respect have not leen realised, they have not telt themselves at liberty to hold out a prospect a this company's extending at the pre sent ti ..e aid to any other project fur western extension than that central communication for which this company has so long and strenuously contended. In connexion with tit i‘w , 'tern extension from Salisbury to Exeter must be eorni'b red the completion of the Basingstoke and Salisbury branch. BA.\beit AND CABNAIITON RAILWAY.—The usual parliamentary notices have been given for the next session, for p ,, vers to sell or lease this line to tho Chester and Holy heal Company, and to make proper arrangements with Rut to the traffic. Notices ham also been given for an at, of the line at Cameroon, to terminate on the 44 "/ at that town, or on an embankment proposed to be %tele x lon the shore. It is confidently expected that this Lee .1.1 be opened for traffic before Christmas; the works Ilearnily an rapidly advancing. The December session of the above court commenced this morning, before the Right lion. the Lord Mayor, the Ik corder, Aldermen Sydney, and Sir R. W. Carden, the Deputy-Sherilfs, &c. &e. The first edition of the calendar contains the names of 65 prisoners. The Recorder, in his charge to the grand jury, congra tulated them upon the probability of their labours being of short duration, ant he said that although there were several very serious cases in the calendar, vet they did nut appear to present any legal difficulty or to require any observations from him respecting them, awl there were only ona or its., to which he consi dered it necessary to direct their attention. lilis lordship then referred to the case of • man named Murphy end his wife, who were charged with the manslaughter of their child by neglecting so provide it with i proper food and nourishment, and other il!-treatment, and he informed the grand jury, that although in ordinary cases of larceny a wife was considered not to bo liable for , any acts done by her in the p resence o f h er h us b an d, upon the principle that she was acting under his co. rcion, he said that that principle did not apply to c l‘f, of manslaughter or murder, and if it should be proved that the woman hod done any act tending to cau.e the death of the child, they would be justified in returning a true bill against her. if the death was shown to be the result of want of fool only, inasmuch as the duty was not solely unon the husband to provide that fond for his family, • question of law might arise whether the wife would in that ewe be liable, but he would remind them that if any joint acts were established againA the pri soners, to Sod the bill amnion hrth of them, nod ony ques tions of law that might arise would then bc discussed before the judges. 'lac grand jury then retired. MONMOUTHSHIRE AM) GLAMORGAN- SHIRE BANKING COMPANY. During the week a meeting of the creditors of this bank has been held at Newport, for the parpow of recessing a report from the creditors' committee. In this document they speak strongly in fevour of the affairs of the vmmany being wound up by Cie county court et the district in case an order absolute almuld be made by the Master of the Rolls. They then proeced to say :—lu case en order absolute be made fur winding up the com pany, the authority of the shareholders over the asa , ets will then be at an end and all the s state of the company will vest in the official managen, when an in.pointment of such officers is made. That part of the arrangement between the creditors and shareholders which contemplated the realisa tion end distribution of the esecte under en inspection for the cr.diture, will, in the: case, be impracticable, but there terms to us no reason why, in the month of January next, the smaller creditors should not he satisfh..l and a dividend of Zs. in the pound paid to the other creditors by means of the c eitributions, which the shareholder , have undertaken to provide; and wo are convinced that great advantages may be thereby secured, both to creditors and shareholders. Nothing wculd be so injurious to the great body of the cre ditor,, or so ruinous to very many of the shareholders, as actions brought by individual creditor, a::tiust individual bliere7,olders ; hut such actions cannot be .:revented, unless each creditor is assured of the furbearance of all, and this iusurance can only be given by a general agreement on the part of the creditors, that no notion shall he brought iu the name of any creditor, except for the benefit of all, and then only with the sanction of the committee. Shareholders hare tinder•aken to contribute voluntarily, in proportion to their fanny, and further cm.tributiors a like character may be exp. eted ; but the shareholders ems contributing will require to he protected against action , at law, and we holieve it to be the interest of the creditors to give them that protection, inasmuch as their ability to make the fur ther large payments, which will be rcquir d to meet calls under the Winding-up Acts, or otherwise, will depend in a great degree on their being allowed to manage their own coo cerns, 111 A not reduced to a state of bankruptcy or insolvency, by proceedings at the instance of individual creditors. iu order to ferther this arrangement, we have considered the previsions of two agreements, which we purpose shall I•e eettled by counsel on behalf of the creditors. We recom mend thie plan, in the belief that it will commend itself to the fat ouralde consideration of the Master of the Rolls, and that his honour will be pleased to give such 'special direc tions es miy enable your committee to proceed with suer arrangement. . . Atter the report had been read, questions were ticked by various creditors with a view to edeiting information, and the replies gives appeared generally to to satisfactory to the inquirers. In the course of the discussion there was considerable aversion expressed to going into the Bristol Court of Bankruptcy, as poetics were already known to be laying snares to get the company in volved in expensive litigation. The report was ultimately adopted nein. eon., as was a resolution empowering the committee to take steps for carrying it into effect, but they were passed upon the understanding that the committee should endeavour to have the business conducted through the county cmrts. Arnoctors 31isenrgr.—On Saturday last, some person or parsons cut the rope of a pit, called 4 . Will Vaughan's l'it," at lied Lake, lietley, and when the over !. sees were going down, with a boy, they sot being aware of the mischief done, just after they were let down a little way the cut rope broke, and they were _precipitated to the b•ittoin. One of them, named Thomas Hayward, was killed almost instantly, for when he was lifted up from the bot tom by a person who went down by another rope, he only gave a sigh and died. The other man, John Pritchard, was taken out of the pit alive, but died almost directly after. The poor boy, named Thomas Rigby, was taken home alive, but lingered iu pain till night, when death put an end to his sufferings, though everything was done to save life that could be by the medical attendant. The roc was cut about eleven yanls from the end, and the depth of the pit being 43 yard., the unfortunate men were precipitated a depth of 42 yards.—Eddoircs 'Journal. THE NEW PROJECTED WESTMINSTER BRIDGE.— The report of the commission has not yet hen pn,ented to parliament, but we can give what we believe will be the recommendations contained in it. The commissioners re-'' commend that the old structure should be used as a tempo-1 racy bridge, and that a new bridge should be comtructed adjoiuiug, or as mar to possible to the present bridge, on the north side, that is, lower down the river ; that it should not Is • leas than 60 feet in width, including the footways; that the height of head way of the centre och should nut he less than 2 i feet 6 inches above Trinity datum; that it ehonld c-moist of no more than five arches; and that it 'Muhl la. an iron structure resting on stone piers, as this would require lens rise than a stone bridge, admit of g greater span of arch, and throw less pressure on the foun dations. With respect to the height and width, Mr. Barry, in his evidence, at tted, as indispensable conditions, if the bridge were to remain where it now is, that the roadway should be least from shore to shore; that the width of the roadway should not be less than 100 feet; and that the height of the road should not exceed 20, feet abuse Trinity standard. These conditions, of course, had relerence to the effect of the New Homes of Parliament, and the commission admitted their import ance in that respect ; but considering that a bridge of this limited height and eats Tided width would prove an obstacle to the passage of vessels, they have not adopted them. A brid7e of the width proposed by Mr. Barry would be a fine feature as well as great convenience, and it should be consi dered whether or not it might bo obtained, or, at all events, approximated, without increasing the obstruction in the river, by means of overhanging footpaths carried by canti levers or balance girders. The property scheduled to come down includes the houses on the south side of Bridge-street, extending as far as the India Board, and then returns into Parliament-street. On the Surrey side the houses now standing on both sides of Bridge-road are taken as far as Belvedere-road on the north side, and Stangate on the south side, and a few houses on the east side of Belvedere-road, at the corner of Bridge-road.—The Builder "THERE IS NO lltsrAKE."—Tho Duke of Welling ton's reply .to Mr. Huskisson, " There is no mistake," has become familiar in the mouths of both those who remem ber the political circumstances that gave rise to it, and those who base received it traditionally, without inquiring into the origin of it. You may perhaps think it worthy of a " note" that this was not the first occasion on which the Duke used those celebrated words. The Duke (then Earl of Wellington) in a private letter to Lord Bathurst, dated Flores de Avila, 24th July, 1812, writes in the following easy style :—" I hope that you will be pleased with our battle, of which the despatch contains as accurate an ac count as 1 eon give you. There was no mistake, everything went ou as it ought ; and there never was an army so beaten in so short a time." The whole letter is well deserving of insertion ; but my object is simply to draw attention to the occasion on which the Duke first used the sentence now so well known.—Notes and Queries. TUE INTRAMVILiL INTERMENTS BILL.—On Satur day, at the weekly meeting of the vestry of St. Marylebone, I held at the Court-house, Alfred Daniell, Esq., in the chair, Mr. Whitmore brought up a memorial to Lord J. Russell on the subject of the Metropolislntermentsßill,praying his lard ship to bring in a bill early in the next session of parliament, allowing parochial authorities to purchase sTtes for extra mural interments under local control, and establisi.ing sack a scale of fees and charges as may be sufficient to carry out the object.—Mr. Whitmore moved, "That the memorial be adopted, and a deputation appointed to wait on tae premier to present it." This was seconded, arid carried, and the deputation appointed. SATVIIDAT EVENING. There has been a greater disposition to buy,. and con sequently a less inclination to sell (except at increased pnces), in mining shares this week than for some time past. In dividend shares, paying from 13 to 20 per cent. per annum, such as West Providence, Alfred Console, Devon Great Consols, Tremayne, &c., large purchases have been made for private investment, and the demand still continues. In smaller shares a good business is doing, and a rise has taken place in St. Aubyn and Grylls, East Duller, Trelawney, Gus tavus, and Tincroft. Amongst purely speculative shares the desire of selling appears predominant; but this is only usual, parties who have gone largely into these undertakings at their starting, and who are desirous of unlocking their funds, being constantly on the watch for opportunities of realisation. This, as has before been observed by us, they frequently do on terms most advantageous to the purchaser, who obtains shares at a low price, has his money lying idle fur a short time only, and then reaps the entire I advantage. There has also been rather more disposition to operate in the Californian gold mining shares, partly owing to the appearance of some of these shares on the official list of the Stock Exchange. There is, however, no particular activity in this department, or at least none by any means c.anparable to that with which these adventures were at first received on the Stock Exchange. Prices h eve been fairly supported during the week at about to-day's range which is as follows: Aqua Fria,' to prem.; Nouveau Monde, 5-16 to 7-16 prem.; Anglo-Californian, Ito prem.; Ave Maria, toe dis.; West Mariposa, 3-16 to 1-16 die. -- - The following may be taken as a correct list of the latest prices, from actual transactions:--Alfred Consols, 151, 161; Bedford United, 6Z, 7 ; Teclawncb 43, 44; Mary Ann, 30, 40; Tincroft, 8,0; 'frc mayne, 243, Z 3; West Providence, 1021.10 u ; East Buller, 21, 31; Trevelyan, 21, 3 ; 3lerhyn, 4; St. Aubyn and Grylls, 0, 61; West Alfred Consols, 1 35; Wheal Venton, 61; South Tamar, 2, 23 ; Devon Great Consols, 2;0; East Pool, 106; Grumbler and St. Aubyn, 221; Carvannal, 10.

Two o'CLoCK. Tho share market is very active to-day with the progress of the arrangements fur the settlement of the account, which occupy a great deal of attention, and so far have proceeded satis factorily. The rates of " continuation" generally rule rather lighter than on Saturday, but only small portion of this business remained over till today, having been nearly co:npleted on Satur day. The decline of that day has in all cases been recovered, and in many instances a decided advance has taken place, the general feeling of the market being much better.

Two o'CLoct The disturbed feeling of Saturday has passed away from the English stock market, but the buoy ancy of tone previously observable has not returned. The marked rise in the Paris Bourse, eat ending to nearly all securities there dealt in, is attracting great atten tion, but it does not produce any equivalent sympa thetic action upon our market, though consi derations of continental politics ace confes— sedly the only cheek up..t quotations here, which, in the case of a satisfactory solu tion of the grace political questions now pending, would, there can be no moral doubt, rise, in the case of the English Government Funds, to par, or beyond it. Console closed on Saturday at 961 for the IGth January. To-day they opend to subsequently receded to 961, and have since returned to the first price of the day, at which they now stand. The fol lowieg is the official report of business in this depart ment : Three per Cent. Consols (shut), 97i; ditto for account tnli, div. Three per Cent. Reduced, 97, ; New 'three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 981, 98, P:xcheqner bills are steady at 48e. to 31s. prem., and Indi,i bonds at 335. to Gls. prem., with a quiet business. Prices of the foicign investments are firm, and where any change is to be noted, it is in a favourable sense. 'Mc transactions of the morning have been rather mole numerous than of late, but are partly prompted by the settling, which is in progress. Sales arc reported as follows:—Brazilian Old Five per Cent., 931; ditto for acount, 3 tst December, 911. Da nish Three per Cents., 1825, 77. Dutch Two and-a- Half per Cents., 59 ; ditto Feur per Cent. Certifi cates, 90. French Five per Cent. 'lentos, 98f. (ex change, 25f. 25e.) Mexican Bonds, 251,1 ; ditto fur account, 25.

A largo import of specie is reported from Liver pool by cleetr:e telegraph this morning, being a million and a half of dollars, by the Africa from New York. The market for the Californian gold mining'shares presents no particular change, prices lemming at about Saturday's range. Shares in the new English and Australian Copper Smelting Company arc quoted to iprom. SATURDAY EVRNINO. Oar Belgian advices mention that a bill has been presented to the Chamber of Representatives, autho rising the government to issue in exchange fur the coupon sheets of the loan of 1818, which expired on the Ist of November last, new titres of 2,000, 1OHN), 200, and 100 francs respectively. A sinking fund of 1 per cent, will he applicable to this loan. The discount market has been freer towards the close of the week, without, however, any change of rates. The supply of bullion is looked to with at tention, as litany to influence the course of monied operations, but •while the influx is large, and the Bank of England stocks increasing, the returns of the Bank of France give a slight index of what political disturbance can effect in the way of coun teraction. In the United States a great change is observable in the public mind as to the operations of Californian gold. The same alarm is no longer excited by its import, and it scams to be admitted, independently of the amounts passing through New York simply in transit for foreign account, that the export of specie as an article of merchandise, and of United States preduci", is becoming an established branch of busi ness. - lt is to be observed at the same time that although much of the bullion is only transitory, it has given rise to vast operations in the United States. The .I",te Fork //era/(1 makes the following estimate of the increase of capitals in the United States in the last four years :—Banking capital, 60,000,000 dols. ; loans and discounts, 150,000,000 dols.; new joint stock companies, 75,000,000 dole.; individual opera tions, 200,000,000 dols. Other items would swell this to 125,000,000/. sterling. The Bank of France returns for the week ending Thursday, the I Ith of December, show the follow ing results (25 francs for 1/.) : Bullion £22,697,086 Decrease ..11,03/,002 Bullion on deposit 183,088 Increase .... 46,083 Circulation Public de posits 2,663,109 Increase .... 728,763 Private deposits Bills disciiiinted E;(,;;;; 687,367 Government securities 8.069,088 Increase .. .1.007,964 The imports of specie this week include 3001. by the Peninsular and Oriental steamer Indus; 2,6011. by the Peninsular and Oriental steamer Tagus ; 601,800 dots. by the Cambria from New York; 1,973,551 dots. by the Dec from the West Indies, of which 1,615,780 arils. were in silver, and 337,771 dols. in gold (the particulars being as follows: Specie from the Gulf of Mexio, 1,475,165 dols.; specie and bullion from Panama, 181,527 dots.; from California, 197,722 dots.; from Carthagena, 66,098 dots.; from Jamaica, 15,028 dols.; from Santa Martha, 29.599 dols.; from other parts of the West Indies, 16,821 dols.); 2,3101. by the Tenet from the Brazils ; and 4,5001. by the I'ropontis from the Cape and Sierra Leone. The total value of these imports is about 330,000/. There bare been no ex arts of gold direct front London this week. The supplies of silver from this market have amounted to 40,033 ounces, shipped as follows :—Silver coin : To Cape Coast Castle, 6,000 ounces ;to Rotterdam, 16,000 ounces. Silver bars : To Rotterdam, 16,033 ounces ; to Boulogne, 2,000 ounces. The aggregate value of these exports may be taken at 10,0001. The other exports consist of 133,105/. shipped by the Severn for the Brazils, of which 103,1081. was for Rio Janeiro ; 28,000/. fur the River Plate ; and 2,000/. for Madciia. Tho total exports from tho United Kingdom arc thus 143,103/. _ Au analis of the railway 'traffic returns of the United Kingdom for the last week, published by Ilerapath's Journal, shows the total receipts on 6,442 miles to be 245,1751., or equal to 381. per mile per week. In the corresponding week of last year, the amount was 224,8111. on 6,192 miles, or 361. .5.5. per mile per week. There is consequently an increase in the aggregate receipts of 20,3611., or 9 per cent., an increase in the mileage of 250 miles, or 4 per cent., and an increase of 11. 15s. in the amount received per mile per week. The Railway Times estimates the total receipts since the Ist July at 7,013,4631., which, on 6,281 miles, gives an average of 1,121/. 7s. 10d. per mile ; and as the amount for the corresponding period in 1850 was only 6,075,759/. on 5,973 miles, or 1,0171. 4s. Old. per mile, the diffe rence is shown to be in favour of the present year to' the extent of 104/. 3s. 9ld. per mile. At the meeting of the Bank of Ireland proprietors held in Dublin on Friday a dividend of 4 per cent. for the half year ending the 25th ult., was an- nounced ; the amount of thereat which this dividend left was not mentioned.

Messrs. l'attenden and Smith report that there continues a brisk demand for Sussex llops, which arc gradually ad vancing in price. There is also a st.andy trade for other arts, at late prices. SMITHFIELD MARKET.-THIS DAY. As N usual on the annual " Great Market," we have a good collection of fat llea;ts on sale. number is not, however, so large as esliibittd last year, but the average quality is very choice; trade is slow, and prices are by no means good. The supply of Sheep is small; big Sheep aro nut so much in request as on former occasions ; indeed, the fancy for show things seems ta be on the decline. Sizeable Sheep are dearer. There arc very few Calves on offer there is not much demand, but owing to the shortness of supply they are dearer. From Germany and Holland there arc lot Beasts, 2,470 Sheep, and 24 Calves. Scotland, 350 Beasts. Norfolk and Suffolk, 400 Blasts; 3,200 from Lei cester, Northampton, and Lincoln; and 220 Sheep and 13 Calves from France. ___. Pur dtene of .1t.... a. d... 4.

TELEORAPHS IN THE UNITED STATE9.—The ex tent of telegraphs in the United States and Canada is esti mated at from twelve to fifteen thousand miles, and it is increasing every day. No one not familiar with the sub ject, can form an adequate ides of the immense benefit which the electric telegraph confers upon the people at large, or of the advantage which it is to commercial and business men generally. By its aid, the government at Washington—tho great head of our political system —can almost instantaneously communicate with all parts of thu country, north, south, cast, and west. In this respect, it is as potent as absolutism or despotism is in the Old World. This vast country, three thousand miles long and threo thousand broad, can be as easily managed and governed, by the aid of the telegraph, as a single city. But the tele graph system in the United States is only in its infancy. It must increase with the growth of the country; and, be fore twenty years, the republic will be covered with a net work of wires that will embrace a distance of probably fifty thousand miles. From the time when the first wire was laid between Baltimore and Washington, until the present, the newspaper press has been a constant patron of the elec tric telegraph. It is compelled to keep up with the spirit of progress and improvement that characterises this won derful age in everything. Were it not to do . sa, it would not fulfil its mission. By the aid of the electric telegraph, the United States can with safety extend her territory to the farthest limits of the continent. On this side of the Atlantic, it is the great comers ator and promoter of repub licanism and freedom.—Neas York Herald.
