News *gest ANGLO•CALIFORNIAXGOLD MIA ING CU 31 PAN Y. The fourth annual general meeting of the pro orietors of this undertaking was held yesterday at the Freemasons' Tavern, Mr. Gauttoz Curran-1, in the chair. The following report was presented, and at the threes tion of the chairman, it having been in the hand. of the shareholders for come dayr, woe taken as read. Your directors, deferring to the wish expressed by the eh ireholdets at the last adjournment of the annual g I meeting, that a committee of shareholders should be called together for the purpose of adusiog with the hoard as to the best eosins to be adopted with r. lettuce to your affairs, suns moiled such a committee ; the reports and circulars issued so recently by that committee have, in a greet measure, superseded the object of the ordinary report of the direo tors. The annual balance-sheet and accounts show you that the debt in California with which the property of the com pany at the last meeting was encumbered, and which then threatened the existence for useful purposes of the company, has been discharged upon fair ned advantageous terms. S.r Henry Huntley is entitled to guest credit for the sstisfactory arrangements ha accomplished with reference to that trans action. By the united exertions of the board and committee of shareholder', we have succeeded in disposing of 12,000 shares which at the last meeting remained unissued. There shares have been issued, in conformity with the resolution of the lot general meeting, as preference shun, bearing a gee ranteed dividend out of the profits of the company of 25 per cent. over aid above and in priority to the other shares of the company. The issue of these shares as pre 'nonce shares has not increased the permanent capital of the company (they bring forfeited original sharer), whilst the amount obtained foe them has enabled the board to die charge liabilities to as agent exceediog 2,( 004., and to leave a balance of 3.6001. in the hands of the managers in Cali fornia for working purpous—a sum sufficient, as the beard hope and believe, to place the works in a satisfactory posh. don for the approaching wet /team The board entertain sanguine expectations that the seal, economy, and manage meat of Mr. Praakerd (who has now the control of the works) will bring that success which the patience and liberality of the shareholders so richly merit. The amount ▪ of the last season, en untoward accident to the teary, and an exhausted exchequer, coupled with an ailleirmat for debt upon the property, all but paralysed the egamisal of the last season. Tee next meath, when the Wm may be admit expected, will, we trust, find us maanci geed hem elf awe evils, and enable us to recommence wain owe favourable auspices than have hitherto awadd iii dispeay.

A mites and distribution of prizes in connexion with this institution took place on Tuesday evesiog, at the Royal Institution, Manchester, which was attended by the ' first families in the city. There was en exhibition of the best worn of the pupils. and amongst these were those for which prizes had been awarded by the Board of Trade,at Gore-house, Kensinetno. Mr. Edmund Potter, the eminent calico printer, presided, and read a paper on " The Peetti•en of Schools of Art." Mr. Potter said his object was to obtain greater appreciation for an education in that district. Since the establishment of the echoed, 17 years ego, they had I had better teachiop, better pups.s, nor suck beautiful end well- ged rooms, and yet they were not progress ing. They had last year avoided appealing to the govern sent, thinking the wee would be an obstacle to the fair consideration of tt.eir claims. The Paris Exhibition I had somewhat aroused the attention of the Board of Trade to their position, who had not tailed to call attention to the great danger they ran is this country of being, as manufacturers and printers, left behind in the race of competition. This he did nut deny, and judging from the Paris Exhibition, it might in some degree he consequent upon the progress of free trade. He did not, however, share the fears of government. The individual manulac rrrrr must look to hie own interest and profit, and if inferior, low• priced tests and commodities paid him better, the state had no right to ask him to sacrifice these for repu tation merely. If the interest of the country would be benefited by creating public funds devoted to art educatioo, then individual traders merged into the citizen, and all would be glad to support sound and incensed taste sod civilisation. The question was one of great interest, and had excited much attention among the B I h jurors at Paris, et the Board of Trade, and in our Chambers of Commerce. Might ocy not then appeal to the Board of Trade 1 He was opposed to technical trade teaching as out stepping the province of the g -nt, and encouregiog particular branches of trade in particular localities, from motives of benevolence rather than send economy. Twenty yens' experience had strengthened his opinion that the state had erred in the direction they had given to instruc tion is these schools, but it would be folly to deny that the i Marlborough- house schoo:s had done some good. If the funds, however, had been appropriated in teaching sit on a sound. comprehensive system, trade would have been better supplied than it had been with highly educated work• men. As it was a system of patronage had produced' articles for which there was not a profitable demand. Mr. Potter proceeded to show that the Manchester institu tion bad not been supported as it ought to have been. The reason of non-success was that they had not endeavoured to teach set, but trade. He recommended that the basis should be altered, cod suggested that the best mode of carrying out art instruction would be to create a board far the 'deans ment of art•eduation and public taste, with a man at its head equal in class to Buller, or Baines, of the Poor-law Board, with a seat in the legislature. Principal Scott, of Owen's College ; Alderman Redd, and the Rev. Canon Richson, addressed the meeting, after which the president distrPiuted the prizes. -—•- - RECEIVER AND THlET....Conaiderable additions are being made at present to the hotel, in the Place Ven dome, Paris, occupied by the company of the Cridit Mobilise. It hating been remarked, during the progress of thaw works, that large quantities of lead had disappeared ng different times,:the police were apprised of the fact, and sew directed to keep a watchful eye upon the workmen this.. Acting on the principle that prevention is better than Gam the police-agents told the workmen at once that they b better take care, for that if any linsousiserra (the slaw/ appellation of thoso that steal load) were dime's's' among them, they would be shown no mercy. The advise remained unheeded, for the very same day two work men were seen, en leaving their work, to walk with an 'messy step, while their blouses dioptayed sundry strange protuber emu 'kat at once slaked suspicion. A policeman, disguised Si a mason, approached them, aad slapping one on tbe bilk as if by way of a joke, felt that he had a The Bill foe She better Preveadoe of Railway lamidings Mob. beim thrust oat last aresies, it =llll44er the benefit of the liege., that it ainfoled to it more espmlal snatcher Rit I ri eamingt .

These, on the other hind, require to be absolute and certain in effect, otherwise they will oral create that which it is the desideratum to avoid. Were the Beard of Trade cognisant that them requisites existed, there would be little hard ship in main an atom was done in the case of the 111118921011. It appears somewhat paradoxical In these days of steam and eleturiaty, prevention being better than ewe, that we should so ignore the agency of a power that to se it were pot tumour hands amesially towards that sad. The application of electricity, when broughtas the aid of steam locomotion, readers it 411 the mem valachle by raidering it tit. mile safe. Steam travels fast, but electricity faster. The most fatal accidents that have occurred are those where one train runs into another, from a break down or otherwise; a complete system of signalling from station to station is, therefore, as also from the increasing traffic, we might say, absolutely required, and an easy and simple matter we believe it to be. The fact, too, that when a train is in motion the ,guard at the rear of the train is totally helpless to I make any signal to the engine-driver under all cit.- eumatances—such as at night, during fogs, noise ot a train in motion, and being most dangerous from the multiplicity of trains in the neighbourhood of the metropolis—will at once show the ricks that all are liable to, and give some faint notion of the utter help lessness and awful hap-hszttdnese of railway tra velling. Unless there be a real inclination shown on the part of railway boards for the adoption of such means or a compulsory act passed, it is not likely we shall have a remedy, or aught else than the hundred and one empirical attempts that we bear of, and which have only tended to throw discredit on such an agency, for without absolute accuracy and simplicity there can be no guarantee against blunders. The foregoing axiomatic remarks may be interest ing to those taking a theoretic view of such matters, but the travelling public in general and the railway interests in particular will care little about them without some remedial proposition. Within the last few weeks certain plans and arrangements for communicating between gust(' and engine -driver, by the agency of electricity, have been practically tested and worked on one of our metropolitan lines, and have proved the practicability of working such with perfect accuracy over any length of train, whilst they are of that simple nature that there could be no possible objec tion to putting . them into the hands of uninitiated guards and engine•drivers, seediog no knowledge of electricity, but exercising only the senses of eight and hearing. The signals to the eye and ear are given simultaneously, and the latter with so loud a noise as cannot fail to draw the necessary attention. The same arrangements are equally applicable to ' communicating between station and station, announc ing the arrival and departure of the trains, and so audibly that it may be heard throughout the station by all and sundry, without the necessary watching ot the needles of a telegraph. The plans and arrange ments for the purposes alluded to above, we under stand, are those of Mr. Thomas Allan, of Edinburgh, C.E., 1, Adelphi-terraoe, Strand, who doubtless can explain more fully the working details to any railway board desirous to avail themselves of these facilities. We observe the lamentable frequency of railway accidents has ettractfd the attention of the French government, ever on the wa•ch to improve the mate rid and social requirements of all classes of citizens. - . • The new screw ship Repulse, 91, arr i v ed at Spit head this afternoon from Pembroke, where she was built.

The registration of births, however, seems to have arrived at its full proportion during March, being at thereto of 333 births fur every 10,000 of the present estimated popu lation, or I birth for every 29 persona " Of the 19,614 births registered, 10,117 were males and 9,527 females, being in the proportion of 94 females to every 100 maim. Nutleithetandiog, then, the great access of females in the Scottish population, males appear to be born in even a greater relative proportion thou in Eogland,where the proportion is about 95 female to every 100 male birth.. Of the above 19,614 birth'', 4,378 were registered during January, 6,946 during F. bruery, and 8,320 during Marsh. From the causes above explained, the total proportion for the quarter was only at the I rate of 262 births in every 10,1.M0 of the estimated population, or 1 birth fur every 38 permeate ; or, if we t he the population as at the taking of the last census in 1851, 271 hints is every 10,000, or 1 birth for every 36 persons. Bat, se above remarked, the numbers for March reached the proportion of 1 birth for every 29 persons of the estimated population, which must be very near the proportion which ought to have been ti gist. ri d. "19,685 deaths were re glints d during the qu oiling 31st March, 1855, being in the large proportion of 263 deaths per annum in every 10,000 of the estimated population, or death for every 37 p.rsoas. Of the. 19,6&5 persona who died,' 9,477 were males and 10,208 remelts. " The »inter quarter was thus one of great mortality, end the state of the atmospheric phenomena during the quarter SIN ms sufficient to account for the rest unhealthi ness of the reason, without the existence of any special epidemics. The mean temperature, which, in the midland counties of Scotland, hail averaged about 36 deg. during December and Januaty, fell in Fs brusry to 27 deg., sick. icy on tome nights as low as 4 deg , end in some localities eves to zero. This extreme and long-continued cold, imam pencil as it was by heavy fells of snow and tempestuous weather, appears to have largely increased the deaths over Scotland, and its influence in this respect is well shown in the fast, that while only 5,977 deaths were registered during January, they rote to 7.227 during February; end even during March they had only fallen to 6,481. The same severe weather, indeed, extended far into March, so that its mean temperature, notwithstanding the warm days at its close, only eeeee Red 36 deg., sir the same as the mean temperature of December and January. The aged, the very young, and the debilitated, were thou, among whom this increased mottalOy chiefly prevailed ; and the registrars' note,, which are appended, supply much vale. able information no this bead, end show how general this agency of the weather proved. " When the cold sets in to late et it did this year, and is of great intensity or long costroued, it seems to prose much more fatal to human life than when it comes on at the usual Christmas season. The frames of the owed and of the debit Heated, previously weakened by the free zing influences of the winter season, appear to be less able to resist intense cold than if that cold had come on at the bestinnii g of the winter, when their constitutions were still comparatively vigorous. It is this state of matters which explains rho truth of the old adage, A green Yule makes a fat kirk yard.' If the winter remains mild and open throughout, the adage proves a false one, seeing the mortality remains at a minima= ; but if the winter is mild and open about the Christmas se aeon, and weather tete in afterwards, the mime proves literally true, the mortality becoming ex. maitre, as in the pre.. nt year. " It may be interesting to state that, heavy as was the mortality in Scotland during the first quart. r of the year, it did not reach the proportion attained in England. During the same quarter the population in England was cut off at the rate of 291 out of every 10,000 of the estimated impala. tton, or 1 death out of every 34 persons. As above stated, the proportion for Scotland was 263 deaths in every 10,000 inhabitants, or 1 death in every 37 person.. " Though the average mortality over Scotland was thus high, that of live eauntiee—vir, Clackmannan, Berwick, Peebles, Selkirk, and Roxburgh—was remarkably low, ging only 187 deaths per annum out of every 10 , 0011 of the population, according to the census of 1851. or 1 death in every 53 persons. It is worthy of note that four of these counties are adjoining, a circumstance which pro bably indicates that they owe their exemption to some com mon cause which cannot easily be traced, owing to the want of meteorological %shim for these counties. " In so severe a winter it might have been esp. eted that the mild and sheltered county of llute would hates exhibited a n minus mortality ; but so far was this from being the case, that the deaths averse. d 1 per annum out of every 34 ; er -40111, thus exceeding the overage of all Scotland, which was at the rate of I death per annum out of every 36, according to the census of 1851. This fact set ma explicable on the supposition that the mild climate of that insular county does not harden the comaitutions of the inhabitants, so as to en able them to resist intense and long-continued cold so well as the natives of the mainland, even though that coil be not so intense as is there experienced. It is probable that this is also the explanation of the greater mortality caused by the severe winter in England. "The deaths in Scotland attained their highest reap in the counties of Lanark and Renfrew, those in Lanark shire being at the I rate of 361 out of every 10,000 in habitants, according to the census of 1851, or 1 death out of every 28 perms; and in Renfrew at the annual rate of 336 deaths out of every 10,000 souls or 1 death for every 29 persons. The increased mortality smo=g the overcrowded populations of Glasgow, Greenock, Paisley, and adjoining towns, accounts for the high proportional mortality in these counties. " 3,926 marriages were registered during the first quarter of the year, being, to the calculated present population, at the annual rate of 62 marriages in every 10,000 of the general population, or 1 marriage for every 190 person,. If we take the population as at 18.51, when the census was taken, it is 64 marriages in every 10,000, or 1 marriage to every 186 persons. fhb is considerably below the proportion far England, where the ratio for the same quarter was 63 marriages in the 10,000, or 1 marriage for every 158 persons. &thee- I quest returns will show whether this low rate of marriage in Scotland continues, or whether it is produced by toe favourite marrying months being different in the two countries. The depressed state of trade, and the high price of provisions, may perhaps have told more on the pro pertion of marriages in a population like that of Scotland than on their proportion in a population like that of Eog. -- in mind that circam TO TILE EDITOR OP TILE EXPRESS. SIR,—In all your remarks on the expulsion of the exiles from Jersey you appeal to the laws and the constitu tion of England. The questien whether these pi Mos have been treated justly or not depends on whether the laws or constitution of Jersey have been violated. lam no admirer of Jersey laws, and when 1 was there, now some yeast:nee, Jersey justice was not in very good reptves; but the people ate attached to finis laws and centtitutien, and all English attempt, to alter them have been resisted. If ever 1r,4 popish demanded the expulsion of any peseon, the people ' of Jersey have done so, as I think just:y ; but that en not for us to cosesider. If the elites come to London, and swell the number of cur retype population, they will be liable eo indictments for misde meatour at they violate the en.. DAM law. This they must be held to know before they take shelter here. The same knowledge of the Jersey law must ke assumed. As to the merits of the case, I think no one can deny that such instigations to murder, made within a taw leagues of the shorts over which cur true-hearted ally reigns, are more to he dreaded than similar exhortations made in the purlieus of Li icester square ; and it may be with this view that the Jers y ceinsti. Sutton has given its governing bodies posse re, which in England we should hesitate to entrust to them. things may be tol din large communities which cannot be borne in smell. Such is, and will always be, the case. If you chose to attack in Isis aristocratic c.untry the eetab fibbed church tomorrow, you might do so with impuutty ; but woe betide the journalist who breathed the sma llest - , censure on the Catholic religion in those cour.trie•, not only of manhood suffrage but of manhood legislation, the repub lics of Uri, or Scheryle, or Zug.—i urn, ecc., A BARRISTER. " A Barrister" has omitted one very important point; he has not ventured to assert that the ezreleion of the refugees from Jersey is consistent with Jersey law. MurEu%er he attempts to vindicate that outrageous proceeding on the ground that it was demanded by the vox populi--.11 other words, that it was an exercise of Lynch-law. Even this is not true. The thirty presents last driven from Jersey have not been proved to have any connexion with the journal L'lleismo, and no voice bas been raised in Jersey for their expulsion. "A Barrister" ought to try to make himself acquainted with the facts of the case, and with the law of Jersey, before be again ventures to writs on the isbjee.) TO Till aDITOZ 01" THIS BIPRZbB. Sin,—Your leading article of to-day on the subject of the expulsion of the French refugees from Jersey con tains a rather severe oaelaught on Lord Palmerston. Yon seem to wonder that your liberal contemporaries of the daily press have not " opened" on her Majesty's government with the same degree of indignation which you have considered it your duty to employ on the ozcas!on. Now, sir, I must humbly beg leave to appeal from your self to yourself. In an article contained in your columns a few days since, you deprecated the fierce tone which, pie lions to the recent trial at the Old Bailey, bad been adopted by certain other journals in reference to the crime of which the Strand bankers have been convicted. As a general tule, no doubt, such strictures on cases sub 'Mime had better be abstained from, or tap d only in a hypothetical form. In this case, however, the delinquents had already, months ago, confessed their guilt; and the proceedings at the Bank ruptcy Court bed yen. ered the case as clear as daylight. But this by the way. My object in troubling you with the present communication is this—admitting the forte of the general (and I may add generous) maxim that every men is to be presumed innocent until proved to be guilty, I should much wish to see its effect extended from judicial matters to political —so far, at least, as the nature of things will bear. How often is this excellent, this most reasonable, principle set at nought by political speakers and writers? If in all cues it should be kept in view, is parliament, is private conversa tion, and in published writings, bow much more so when the party attacked has no Urea or available means of de fending himself ? Were parliament at this moment sitting, the Premier might, for aught that you or I can tell, trium• pbantly vindicate his proceeding!, and show that the truck. IMg motives which you have imputed to him have had no Watteau. Believe me, sir, this constant imputation of im proper motives goes far to neutralise the salutary itieurtice of political writers. And how easily may it be retorted ! There are really acme journalists (I do not, as you may well believe, include amongst them the Editor of the Daily News) who appear utterly incapable of attributing any but bad motives to those politically opposed to them. Da not you, sir, u you value your daily increasing reputation as an organ of liberal (truly liberal) opinions, cast in your lot with such men. Honesty is the best policy, and there can be no real political honesty without oaadour.—l am, ac., Oct. St. G. (We wiped oar reasons for believing that foreign in flames bad instigated the unoonstitational proceedings at Jersey : their illegality we proved by reference to judicial jcesedsats.)
