is afforded by the high premiums which the stocks oil - the different Banking Companies there now bear. There is no restriction, by the law of Scotland, as to the num ber al partners, and consequently, in a numerous asso ciation like that of the proposed National Bank , the public is well secured. We understand that the very first day that the books were opened for taking shares, twe hundred arid fifty persons entered their names, to the amount of above 750,0Q0/. in Edinburgh alone, besides the shares taken in Glasgow arid other great towns in Scotland, the parti culais or which have not yet come to our knowledge. IX.-STEAM-PACKET TO INDIA. This is the boldest attempt hitherto undertaken for the application of steam to a sea•voyage : yet it appears to be calculated with every chance of success. The vessel is of 500 tons burthen, to be fitted for passengers only, and is now building at Deptford. She is to be completed with machinery of the best description by Maudsley, and will be commanded - by a Lieutenant of the Royal Navy, who is well acquainted with the seas! she will have to traverse. Between decks there are ten' cabins, each furnished with a water-closet, the two stern cabins are ten feet nine inches by seven feet sii ; the eight other cabins ate each seven feet three wide, but differ in length from seven feet nine to eight feet ten. The vessel will be equally adapted for sailing and steaming. She will touch at the Cape to take in a fresh supply of coals and other necessaries, will proceed thence to Madras, and finally to Calcutta ; and upon a moderate calculation it is estimated that she will make the whole voyage from London to Calcutta in less than two months. No prospectus of this particular undertaking has yet been published; but the expense of equipping this vessel will be defrayed by a few indi►iduals, leaving the feture extension of the establishment dependent on the success of the enterprise. L-AUSTRALIAN AGRICULTURAL COMPANY. This Compasy has already been incorporated by Act of Parliament, and reckons among its Directors no less than fifteen Gentlemen, who are also Directors of the Bank of England, or of the East India Company, be sides several Members of Parliament of both sides of the House. The object of the incorporation is a truly national one, viz. to promote the agriculture of the important and extensive colony of New South Wales, more espe cially in growing fine wool for the use of the British manufacturer. 'lO facilitate so laudable an undertaking, his Majesty's Government has wisely offered, under cer tain conditions, a grant to the Company of one million of acres, or an extent of land somewhat larger than the county of Kent. Considerable as this grant may ap pear, yet, when we consider the vast extent of unoccu pied territory in that Colony, and the great public utility which will•arise from the exertions of the Com pany, we cannot but regard it as an act of enlightened policy, and more a matter of - justice than of favour.' New South . Wales is nearly 2000 miles in length, and 1400 in breadth : it is remarkable for the salubrity of its climate, for the extent of its rich pastures, and for the fertility with which it yields all the finest products of the Temperate Zone. It is well calculated for the growth of timber, wheat, tobacco, hemp, flax, olives, grapes, and all kinds of luscious or useful fruits; but of all its productions none is more valuable or produced in greater perfection than fine wool. The sheep is not an indigenous animal, but several flocks of Merinos have been transported thither, where they multiply ra pidly, and prove excellent in fleece; insomuch, that their proprietors to the colony have already realised consider. able sums by exporting the wool to this country, where the fineness of the quality Commands a ready sale at high prices. It is hoped and believed that, at no distant period, by the exertions of the Australian Company, New South Wales wool will be supplied in such abundance, as to render us independent of the supply which we now draw from the Continent of Europe, and which amounted last year to upwards of twenty millions of pounds weight! Next to the produce of wool, the Company look to a profit on the breeding of cattle and other live stock, and the raising of corn, tobacco, &c. for the supply of the Colonists : and at a more distant period they expect to export to Great Britain, wine, oil, hemp, flax, silk, opium, &c. The Capital of this Company amounts to one Million Sterling, in Shares of 1001. each. VL-KENTISH RAIL-WAY COMPANY. The intention of this Company is to lay down an iron railway, first from London to Woolwich, and afterwards, according as circumstances may prompt, successive extensions of the plan, to Gravesend, So oud, Rochester, Chatham, Maidstone, Tonbridge, arid the Weald of Kent, and again to Faversham, Canterbury, Margate, Ramsgate, and Dover. Upon these roads locomotive steam-engines are in tended to travel; and as it is calculated that they will transport goods with three or four times the celerity of waggons, and will carry passengers nearly twice. as rapidly as coaches do, the projectors of the scheme reckon upon shortly superseding almost the whole of these vehicles, as well as many of the boats which now pass between - London and the various points of the • Kentish coast. Kent is a large, fertile, and populous county, con taining nearly a million of acres in extent, yielding in rent and tithe above a million sterling per annum, and supporting between four and 500,000 inhabitants. The great military and naval depots which it contains, the abundance of its agricultural and horticultural produce for the London matkets, its favourable position for a trade with France, as well as for fisheries and other maritime pursuits-all these, and many other circum stances, strongly indicate the national importance to be attached to any real improvement in the means - of its internal trade, and in the facility of intercourse be tween the different parts of the country. The sum proposed to be raised for this, undertaking is one mil lion sterling, in 10,000 Shales of 1001. each ; and the Company thus formed is to he governed by eighteen LontiOn Directors., to whom will be added twelve Gen tlemen selected from the County of Kent. An Act of Parliament will be applied for early in the approaching Session to carry into effect • the various objects of the plan. In the meantime a deposit of only 11. per Share has been paid, aad no further call will be made until the Act for establishing the Company has been obtained. VII.-RIO DE LA PLATA MINING ASSOCIATION.

In the STAR of the 11th inst. we copied from the Aew Times an account of Public Undertakings; and are indebted to the same source for the following : WINTER HOME CIRCUIT. SIJRRI?Y ASSIZES . KINGSTON, DECEMBER 27. .. Jr. Justice BUR ROUGH and Mr. Baron Ganitosv arrived here about two o'clock, and opened the Com mis-,ion. The following is a summary of the Calendar, which is very heavy : Murder, 1 • Killing and Slaying, 2; Forgery, 1 ; Horse - steal . ing, 11 ; Burglary, 17 ; -Stealing from the Person, 1 ; Obtaihing Money under false pretences, 2; Embezzlement, 1 ; Rescuing a Prisoner, 1; Felony, 42 ; Assault, 2 ; For want of Sureties, 3.

This man, whose name has for many years been almost synonimous withvillain y,is indicted on two counts —first, for having feloniously excited others to the corn-, mission of a burglary in the house of Mr. Haines (Lord Cowper's steward), at Hertingfordbory, near Hertford ; and secondly, with being an accessary after the fact, in having sheltered the thieves, and assisted them in the disposal of the property stolen.

MANSION-HOUSE. Airing the whole of yesterday considerable sums were trans mitted to the Loan Moron for the relief of the Spanish and Italian refugees. The Committee have had an arduous task in directing the distri bution of the public bounty in such a manner as to avoid wounding those nice•feelings and opinions which are entertained by the re fugees of both nations. The allowance directed to be made, is ten shillings per week for single men, fifteen shillings per week for married men, whose wives are living with them, and eighteen shil lings per week to those married men who have brought over chil dren. The number of refugees who have already partaken of the relief exceeds 700. certificates are required of the parties. and In quiries are made of gm most respectable persons of either nation as to the truth of theiritatemenis. The principal references are, the Gene rals 'Mina, Milan., and Quiroga, who, we believe, arc made, in many instances, the distributors of the charity, it being the most agreeable to those unfortunate Gentlemen who fought under the command of those leaders, to receive the donations at their hands-- Tbere are others of the refugees, however, who feel a great delicacy in re ceiving the money at the hands of their countrymen, and have ex pressed a preference to Teceive it directly from the Society. But this course is attended with many inconveniences, and there are many advantages which !t is unnecessary to specify, attending the course adopted by the Committee. All the distributors selected are men of the highest respectability. M. Louis de Li Vega will at tend, we understand, daily, at Newton's Hotel, near Leicester. fields, for the purpose oZ distributing the allowance to a certain number of the refugees. The Loan Mayoa has received letters from various parts of the country on the , subject of the subsception ; and the feeling which is generally manifested is such, as to induce him to write to the Chief Magistrates of the principal Corporate towns throughout the king dom as to the propriety of joining in the exertions made in the me tropolis in behalf of the strangers, and caning public meetings for that purpose. GUILDHALL. W. Gninf, a private in the Ist Guards, was fully committed fir wanton and outrageous assault on Mr. Orani, a Fireman. The Ser jeant of his company attended, but could say nothing on his behalf, and he was committed ; and Mr. Alderman Cox directed that be should be prosecuted by the City Solicitor. Mr. B. Moo/Main, a farmer at Althorpe, was remanded, for as a watchman, by way of Christmas gambol. BOW. STREET. J. Whahnins and R. and W. Atkinson, were charged with dis turbing the congregation of a Scotch Seceding Chapel, in Coventry. court, 'Haymarket. The defendants pleaded the old excuse of intoxication, for which they were fined 51. each, and or dered to find ball. After retiring with one of the Elders, however, the rest of the punishment was remitted, on consenting to apolo gise in the public Papers and pay all expenses. UNION-HALL. Yesterday Mary Anne Ball, who cohabits with a person named Honeyman, was brought before the sitting Magistrate, R. J. CIiAM• Esq. charged with having violentlp assaulted Mrs. Whitmee, who, it will be recollected, attended at this office on Friday last, accompanied by her husband, for the purpose of applying fora war rant for her apprehension. The particulars of this case have been already detailed. After a great deal of violent abuse between Mrs. Whitmee and the girl, the Magistrate indignantly discharged the warrant, saying that there was not a pin to choose between the two women. Then addressing Mr. Whitmee, he observed. that it was a pity he did not let the twp women fight it out between themselves, u it was all about whii should have the man. _ Mr. Whitmee (with surprise)- 4, What, Sir! see my dear wife torn to pieces, like a mouse in the talons of a cat, by that vile wo man? No, no, Sir; I could stand anything but that." Mr. CNAMIIIRI here remarked, that after having been so scan dalously treated by his wife, he thought Mr. Whitmee would have done tight by letting her stand the consequence of enticiug another man away from the woman with whom he cohabited. Mr. Whitmee said, that he could not perceive how he had been ill-treated by his wife? The 1%1 souTaare.-0 Why, Mr. Whitmee, you must be aviare that we have a proof Isere of the fact of your wife having given in formation to the thieves who robbed you, that the officers were on the look-out for them ; and I now tell you, Mr. Whitmee" added the Magistrate, ,‘ that had it not beeu for that woman, the thieves would have been apprehended, and you would have had your pro. perry restored."—The defendant was then discharged. right years ago, a Gentleman of the name of Nash, residing in Noble•street, London, who had rather ex tensive mercantile transactions in the West Riding of Yorkshire, became insolvent from adverse circum stances, and made a composition with his creditors of 10s. in the pound, for which they gave him a release from any further claim. Since that time fortune has smiled upon his undertakings, and on Monday se'nnight he gave his principal creditors an invitation to dinner, at the Rose and Crown, in Huddersfield, when he an nounced his intention to pay all his debts in .full, and presented those present with checks upon his banker to the amount of several thousand pounds. It is , scarcely necessary to add, that the entertainment which followed was enjoyed by all patties; and the creditors, to mark their sense of his honourable conduct, have resolved tot present Mr. Nash with a splendid piece of plate, of the value of 100 sovereigns, bearing an appropriate inscrip- . tion, in which a just compliment will be paid to his ho nour and probity. The CHRISTMAS Box was money gathered in a Box to provide Incases at this festive season ; and servants, who else were unable to defray them, were allowed the piivilege of collecting from the bounty of other;. The custom may probably be traced to the Roman Pojoralia. ~' r.=..~w.z - ~siNi.i~ra~ ~.....~ BRW*. UNIVERSITY and CLERICAL I.VrELLIGENe , 7 • , - CAMBRIDGIt, bite 24.
