The Chamber then adjourned till the 12th. NANO EA N the bth inst. M. Bowen addressed two ques tions to the ministers in the Chamber of Deputies. He asked whether the report was true that govern ment had given in its adhesion to the Munich treaty ; and whether it had deserted the alliance of the three kings. M. Stave re mained silent. At a later period of the sitting M. Lang, jun., reverted to the subject. remarking that he could only attribute the ministerial silence to the form in which the questions had been put. Re added that the Chamber could not, consistently with its own dignity, allow the questions to remain unanswered ; and therefore asked ministers whether they had to expect any comninnicntion (rem government relative to the general affairs of Germany. M. Stove, thus pressed, said that the cabinet had come to no decision, seeing one of its members was absent : but that as soon as a definitive revolution was adopted, it would, of course, be communicated to the Chambers.

COPT OP ♦ DISTATCN FRON COUNT BAZOII lIIIIINOW. 8t77.1,;;;;; g , 8 (20th) Feb., 1850. Monsieur le Baron—Almost et the very moment when we Were addressing to you our despatches of the 7 (19th)of tido month, we learnt by your rrport that Lord Palseratoe, re ining those amnia' measures which he km adopted against the Hellenic government, had consented to suspend them on acespting is this differenee the mediati , a of France. As in our eyes the interest of the Greeks is superior to every other personal consideration, we will not hoist upon the went of courtesy of which we have felt ourselves allied upen to complain ; and our intention is not to ask to enter, after the negutiatimi has begun, into a mediation already ocaneceed, and which perhaps, at the time we ere writing, may have borne, as we hope, fruits pr,fitsble to Greece. It the good office*. France can act efficaciously in favour of the gonrameat of King Otho, and can contribute to lighten he ilm the weight of the pecuniaiy claims raised against him, we are ready to congratulate ourselves sincerely • such a result. Neverthelem, M. le Baron, in /mud to orient relates to the cession of the Greek islands, equally claimed in the name of the government of the lonian Islands, as this is not purely a question of money be tween England and Greece, but is • question of territory connected with the delimitation established by a treaty con cluded between the three cabinets which founded the Hel lenic kingdom, it would, at all events, be impossible for us, in our quality of signers of that act, to admit that this ques tion should be mated by England and France to the sada aloe of Russia. We feel it our duty, therefore, to make the reservation of oar rights in this respect, and you will declare We to the English government in communicating to it this despatch. Receive, M. le Baron, the assurance of my very dietio &Mod coloideratios. (Signed) NISSZLZODI. THE LEVANT.

THE tIANUFACTURING DISTRICTS. RAILWAY MEETINGS• SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE. The half-yearly meeting of the shareholder. in this urdertakag was held at the George Hotel, at Walsall, yesterday. Mr. CHAZLIS buns in the chair. The following is an abstract of the report : " The directors are new enabled to report to the pro- Isidore the completion of the whole length of their railway. All causes of delay with reference to the passenger traffic on the Dudley branch are so far overcome, that an almost im mediate opening of this last remaining portion of the line ' for passenger traffic may be relied on. Negotiations are now in progress for an adjustment of all differences to which the subject of leasing the line gives rise between this company or their proposed lessees, and the other companies in the locality, and which the directors sincerely trait will re sult in the united support of ell 'sides to the bill now before parliament, for giving lmat authority to the lease. This bill will shortly be submitted to the shareholders for their ap proval in obedience to the standing ordus of parliament. The directors have takes measures since they received the authority of the proprietors in November last, to put the borrowing powers of the company in operation, and should they be able to procure loan, to the requisite amount, will not be under the necessity of making any further calls on the proprietors. In the absence of that necessity which the de thistles of a dividend would involve, the directors forbear to give any revenue statement, ia es much as such could only Lead to imperfect coecludess in reference to the traffic tad prospects of the line." Is • subsequent paragraph it was stated that the entire bed, of directors retired at this meet ing, and that in the boll now before parliament powers were applied for to reduce the number of airman. A statement of menete showed that the groan receipts on sham capital have bean 877,4801. ls. 81. ; in this sum the traffic returns for the ear 1849 are included, amounting to about 11,2831. The n os' expenditure, including 80,5861 10e. 3d. for " Lary and parliamentary ex. pass," has been 712, 2a. 104., Laving a balsam dee to beakers of 35,480 L la. 4d. The report was adopted after • brief discussion. On the question of electing new directors considerable die cession arose, which was put an end to by a pledge from the chairman, th at as each same yr proposed, it should be ao companid by • declaration that the party held a sufficient number of sham. Mr. John B. Pays, of Birmingham, was elected • director in the place of Sir Bayard Seem Bart. On the question for the se.deetioe of Mr. Booth, the representative of the Lon don and North Western interest at this board, an answer was elicited from Mr. Booth to the effect that the company h. tad had withdrawn their opposition to the ro les. of the line- that in a conferees. between Mr. 'Less semi CaptaL Hsieh, on the part of the London and Nee* Wolin bard, as Saturday, all the matters L had boa amicably adjusted. Mr. Booth was accord re-elected. r. ROBERT SCOTT, late M.P. for Walsall, and chairman of the Birmingham Canal Company, said that ha was still opposed to the lease ; th erefore, be declined to allow his name to be put in ncsaination. At the same time he most emphatically disclaimed the unfounded rumour set afloat, that tholes gentleman laterested in the Caeal Company had ever acted adversely to this railway at its board. Mr. Smith, of Hadley, Lard Ward's agent, was elected, in the place of Mr. Todd, of Maaeleastar ; Mr. Haines, of Birmingham, was elected in the stead of Mr. R Scott ; and Mr. Adams, of Walsall, and Mr. Chance, of Birmingham, IMO elected to supply the remaining vacancies. The remaining routine burineas having been transacted, the proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to the chairman, and to the engineer, for having concluded the works within the estimates.

The bill has been thrown out in the pressed session by the Rouse of Com mons for want of cmpliance with standing orders. " With regard to the relations between this company and the Reading, Guildford, and Reigate Company, the direct ton have to state that the original agreement between the Reeding, Guildford, and Reigate Railway Company and the South -E astern Railway Company was, tint tie former company should construct their line and then lease it to the Routh-Rannn Railway Company at 44 per cent. per annum on its cost, and a division of any profits that might be made beyon d that rate ; but after full consideration, and a belief that the change would be desirable for the interests of the South-Eastern Railway Company, that ointment was cancelled, for one which gave the South-Eastern Rail way Company a majority of voices in a committee to be charged with the expenditure for the ommustian of the line and the direction of the works; and 5i per cent. per annum was agreed to be paid oa • livid capital of 600,0001 (which it was then believed would have been sufficient for the purpose), bat if further capital were eventually required, then each farther sum was to be raised by mortgage, and the interest thereon was to be a charge on the Soutti.Restern Railway Company. If the bonds of the Reading, Guildford, sad Reigate Railway Company representing the money so raised were net indented by the South-Eastern Railway Company, but wen eapitali•ed by calls on the Reading, Guildford, and Reigate proprietors, then the amount to capitalised was to bear interest at Si per cent.; but the payment of interest by the South-Bastern Railway Com pany on the 600,0001. (which was to be paid out of the 600,0001. capital until the lie• was opened) was only to eeasateue by .ay of rent on the execution of the lease. A Criraof the line between Gooshall end Dorking, five miles ag i th, was to have been made by the Direct Portsmouth Railway Company, or If made by the Readisg, Guildford, and Reigate Company, the Direct Portsmouth Company were to have the right to purchase it; and it must be observed, in explanation of the circumstance, that the original estimate of the out of the line will be exceeded : that this is chiefly occasioned in consequence of the cost of the portion referred to, and which cost =mutts to between 90,0001. and 100,0001 having now to be borne by the Read ing, Guildford, and Reigate company. It win be in the recoUection of the proprietors, that, on the 4th of July laat, 234 miles of the Reading, Guildford and Reigate railway were opened for traffic, viz., 8 miles from Redhill to Dorking and 184 miles has Reading to Farnborough ; and that ot. the 20th of August, 204 additional miles of that railway were opened, vii , 104 miles from Dorking to Shelton, and 10 miles from Farnborough to Guildford; the remainder 14 mile, vie., from Shalford to Guildford, a put of the line con structed by the South- Weston company, was opened on the 15th of October, but in cossequi nee of the report of the government inspector, this pert was closed from the 22nd to the 24th of October, when it was again re-opened, and the whole Use has been since in use for passenger traffic ; but tap to the mend time no accommodation has been provided for the goods trafile. The direoton take no blame to theaselves for the delay in completing the required works, but, desiring to avoid all remarks of an irritating tendency, they will not pursue the subject. It is hardly ne notary to observe, that the directors of the South-Easters Railway Company would not recommend to the proprietors to sanction the execution of the lease, until all the works are completed or other satisfactory arrangements made. The direction do not consider the result of the traffic during the last half-year, as shown in the accounts, as at all demonstra tive of the capabilities of the line, opened as it' ' was at the end of the summer, and alibi:qui:ldly pa:daily closed, and still unprovided with all con veniences for the carriage of goods. A compromise has been proposed ; it is, that the lease should be at once sealed on the following terms—via., that the 600,0001. of paid-up capital bear interest out of capital up to the day of its date, and thereafter by way of rent, at 64 par cent. per annum, and that the unexpended balance out of 200,0001. raised on bonds, and all the assets of the Reading, Guildford, and Reigate Railway Company, be handed over to the South- Eastern Railway Company, they indemnifying the Read ing, Guildford, and Reigate Railway Company against all liabilities, and the Ring, Guildford, and Reigate Com pany guaranteeing the South-Eastern Railway Company against any payment beyond 41. per one per annum on the 200,0001.

Fletcher's comedy of " The Elder Brother" wu re• wived here last night, and under circumatanen which ensured for it • meet favourable reception. This comedy is not amongst the best productions which bear the name of Fletcher, but it is marked by as many good qualities as any of the kw pleys which are said to have been written by him alone. There are many effective scenes In the piece, and the language is alternately of • humorous ant poetical character. There is, however, an absence of sufficient in terest, and the moral of the play is essentially of a bygone age. The great merit of the piece consists in the striking contrast between the two brothers, and in the sudden trans• formation which the character of each undergoes. Charles, the elder brother, a dreamy student, who time is zealously devoted to his books and mathematical calculations was played by Mr. Anderson. The put was extremely well suited to him, and his performance was marked by the nicest taste and discrimination, albeit his voice has suffered so much from a continued cold, that his intonation was aces fluidly monotonous. His conception of the character appeared most perfect, and he invested the imperunatica with that leerily energy of purpose which is the gri at merit of hie acting. Eastace, the younger brother, was played by Mr. W. Montague, and the result was only such as to mike one regret that so important a character was not entrusted to en abler representative. Mr. Emery appeared as Mira mount, the uncle of the two youths, and his perfor. muse was well deserving of the praise bestowed *pen it. The actor had evidently well studied the intentions of the author in all their hearings, and the effect was such that every lice he delivered " told " upon the audience. Mr. W. Davide performed the part of Brissae—the father of Charks and Eustace—with much energy and discretion. The heroine, Angelina, was played by Miss Vandeahoff with a del of feeling which tended to relieve a somewhat unnaturcharacter of its objectionable attributes. The minor parts were respectably filled, and the gyms:as, on the whole, satisfactorily represented. The were in good taste, and the mks en seen gave evi dence of great pains in the getting up of the piece. At the fall of the curtain, Mr. Anderson, Mr. Emery, and Mile Vanc:enhoff came forward a' the bidding of the audience to receive the congratulations which were considered their due. The house was very well attended. The kat time the " Elder Brother " was performed in London was on the *autos of its production at Mist Kelly's Theatre, under the auspices of the amateur compesy of which Mr. Charles Dickens and the luminaries of Pasch were members.

New INPALIITZT CAP.—Ws have seen a specimen of the shell en framework of the new infantry helmet, which has been sent out to Sir C. Napier—at his own desire, we believe —as a model for the army clothiers in India. It is in shape like a helmet, wanting very little in height to auks it • handsome and martial head dress. Sir Charles has shown by his per. soul adoption of an approximation to the jockey cap how much he values equality of prisms upon the head, which is, after all, the beet recommendation of the helmet, its soldier like appearance taking second rank in consideration. The government of India can introduce any change in costume they please without consulting the Hone Guards. It will be curious enough if they should take the lead in the reform of head drames.—United Servie. Gazette. SPORTING.

THAMES. PLVNDKII Ile THE LONDON DOCKS BY OFFICEIIB OP Crarome.—C. J. Preece, J. T. Evans, and T. Lye, three men employed as extra weighers of customs, were brought up on remand, charged with stealing various quantities of tobacco, from the tobacco warehouse of the London Docks. The facts were briefly these :—The authorities at the decks had the prisoners narrowly watched, and on Monday, the 4th kat , they were seen consecutively to enter the house of a person rained Inch, No. 3. Christian-street, St.George's-in the-east. Preece was the first who entered, when he was instantly arrested, and 6 lbs. of leaf tobacco was fouud upon him, upon which he was immediately conveyed away. Shortly after the prisoner Evans entered, and 6 Its. 10 oz. of leaf tobacco was found on Cis rerson. After be was oosveyed to the station-house Lye. not knowing what had occurred, came to the place, when 12 ounces of leaf tobacco and two or three cigars were found upon him. These three being in custody, Inch, who subsequently came in, was given in charge as a receiver of tobacco knowing it to have been stolen,. some leaf tobacco corresponding with that found on the prisoners being discovered in a locker at his house. When he was brought up on remand on Wednesday last Mr. Clarkson said that he was to state, oa the part of the dock authorities, that there would be no objection to admit him to bail, it being intimated by his solicitor, Mr. Pelham, that he was disposed to assist in bringing the more guilty parties —namely, thaw who were placed in situations of trust, to punishment. When the parties were brought up again yesterday, Inch was the principal witness against them. He said that, about three months since, he kept a beerhouse in Retail highway, bat was at present proprietor of a lodging hoax for seam= at No. 3, Christian-street. About three months since Preece mentioned to him that there was a good deal of damaged tobacco at the Queen's warehouse, which was to be burned in the kiln, but that witness could have some of it at 2s. per lb., to which he unfortunately agreed, Preece telling him that wu the price he got from Mr. Howes, of Rosemary lane. Evans and Lye came to him afterwards, and said they would tell the others to come to him. He purchased from Lye about two or three times, from Evans about 20 time', and from Preece more frequently. In all, he bought about 1 cwt. from the three. He sold half which he purchased to Mr. Howes, and the other half to a Jcw named Leo, in Petticoat lane. When questioned as to the price at which he sold it, whether he kept auy account, Or whether anything was owing to him on account of the tobacco by Howes or Leo, the witness became very evasive and cautious in his replies. r Mr. Yardley said that from the evidence before him he should commit the prisoners for trial. F. Smith, IV. Hart, 11r. Clarke, J. King, J. Hubbard, and T. Harris, also extra customs 'weighers, were then charged with being engaged in a similar system of plunder. and some evidence having been heard, they were remanded. HAMMERSMITH. Cass or STABBING.—J.
