Mr. Deputy HARRISON explained that the com mittee hoped to come to a satisfactory arrangement with the company, and the report was then agreed to. Mr. Deputy BOWER brought up a report from the Improvement Committee upon the fulfilment by the Metropolitan Railway Company of the terms of their agreement with the corporation for autho rity to take the necessary steps for completing the arrangement, and recommending the appoint ment by the court of three of the directors of the company - , and 40 members of the court to attend and vote at meetings of the shareholders. The report stated that the committee had ascertained from the officers of the corporation drat the com pany had fulfilled their share of the terms of the agreement, and the committee recommend that £60,000 being the amount of deposits and calls due upon the 20,000 shares taken by the corporation, should be paid over to the company upon the trans• ference of the shares, In moving the adoption of the report, the Deputy said it would be for the benefit of the corporation that the contract made by them with the company should befairly carried out. And, in fact, they had but litttle choice, since their con tract was to take 20,000 shares, as soon as the com pany should get together 65,000 taken up, and this, there could be no doubt, had been accomplished. The works were actively commenced, and now they were shareholders any delay in the completion of the line must be to the disadvantage of the corpo ration in that respect, to say nothing of the loss they were sustaining from their land lying idle and un productive—land which they had gone to such an enormous expense to clear—or of the facilities which the line would give for establishing a dead_ meat market in Smithfield. He hoped, therefore, no delay would take place, nor could he see bow any unprejudiced member of that court could do or say anything to cause delay, or obstruct the comple tion of so beneficial an undertaking. Several members objected to proceeding to dis cuss the report until it had been printed and cir culated, expressing doubts whether the conditions, seb.ject to which the Court bound themselves to take 20,000 shares in the undertaking had been strictly fulfilled, and more especially as to the calls of £3 having been actually paid upon the other 65,000 shares. In proof of the actual fulfilment of their share of the contract by the company, dissentients were referred to the statement presented to their own officers, as well as by the directors of the company ; but., notwithstanding, an amendment was moved to postpone the consideration of the re port until it should be printed and circulated. Alderman ROSE said the Court had entered upon the contract after full consideration, and were bound to execute it. Omar Pacha was struck out at 1.45.

Alderman CU ITT had up to that time abstained from taking part in any discussion upon any rail way intended to be brought into the City of Lon don, but he felt bound now to say that they had entered into a contract which they were bound fairly and honourably to carry out without delay, relying upon the information of their own o ffi cers and their own committee as to the terms of the contract having been fulfilled on the other side. Some time ago it became known that the corpo ration agreed to take 20,000 shares. Upon their faith in that contract, people out of doors took other shares, and it would look like a breach of faith with the public, if the corporation were to attempt to draw back now, or in any way to delay the execution of the works [hear]. After some further discussion the amendment was declared to be lost upon a show of hands, a result which was affirmed upon a division by 86 to 41 ; majority, 47. The original motion was then agreed to.

Deputy BOWER brought up a report from the Improvement Committee, recommending the Court to petition Parliament against the Great Northern, Holborn, and City Extension Railway, which was intended to cross Smithfield, on the site of the pro posed dead meat market, at an elevation of 31 feet above the level of the streets, and stating that it would cross many streets in the same way, and act prejudicially in many ways, but more especially on account of the near approach of its terminus to the Bank.

The report was then agreed to. A similar report was brought up by Mr. Deputy BOWER, with regard to the London, Chatham and Dover Railway Bill, the ground of objection being that the line would cross Ludgate-hill and other thoroughfares upon arches, and that much incon venience and deterioration of property might there by be occasioned. The deputy, however, in ex planation, said that the principal objects sought to be attained by opposing the bill, was to g e t an alteration made in the height at which it was pro. posed to cross Ludgate-hill, which was only sixteen feet ; and in the opinion of the committee much too low. The report was agreed to. ---- [ I ADVERTISEMENT.)-It is with plea sure we notice the dal y increase of cures without medicine of indigestion (dyspepsia), flatulency, constipation, nervous, bilious, and liver complaints, cough, asthma, consumption, and debility, by Du Barry's delicious Revalenta Arabics.

Letters received from Constantinople to the Ist inst. state that general dissatisfaction prevailed in Turkey. The complaints against the administra tion of the Grand Vizier were increasing, and it was believed that the Sultan will dismiss him on account of his unpopularity. The Dutch Minister had been insulted by an ounuch in a street of Pera, and had demanded satisfaction. The Turkish Government has promised to with draw the paper money from circulation next month. Information causing suspicions against Prince Danielo has been received by the Porte. Intrigues of Prince Milosch for obtaining the complete inde pendence of Servia had also been discovered. The suzerainty of the Sultan was not mentioned by Prince Couza in the constitution. Agitation prevailed in Servia. The tranquillity of Bosnia and Roumelia was also threatened. The Porte therefore had reminded the Powers of their en gagement to defend the integrity of the Turkish Empire. MADRID, FRB. 9.

The commissioners find that the election in April, 1839, was conducted by and on the part of each of the candidates in a corrupt and illegal manner, and that corrupt and illegal practices extensively pre vailed. They set forth the names of 98 persons who were guilty of bribery in respect of the votes of other persons; 86 who were guilty in respect of their own votes ; and 12 who " were guilty of acts of bribery and not on one side only, but on both." They find that Mr. W. H Leatham expended, through his agents, a sum of money . amounting " at least" to £3,900, of which all but £478 7s. 6d. was disbursed in illegal payment ; and that on behalf of Mr. J. C. D. Charlesworth a sum of at least £4,150, of which only £652 10s. passed through the hands of the election auditors, was expended, the residue being disbursed in illegal payments. Of the ex penditure of a sum of between £l,BOO and £1,900 by Mr. Gilbert, through whom tke bribery on be half of Mr. Leatham was carried on, the commis sioners say : " We find that Mr. W. H. Leatham provided the monies with the intention that they sholld be em ployed, in part at least, in bribery and corruption, and that before the said monies were provided Mr. W. H. Leatham kad anticipated and suspected, by reason of his observation of what had previously taken place at elections for the said borough, that corrupt practices would probably be had recourse to in order to defeat him, and that he intended to make use of the like means in order to secure his own return." After detailing the ingenious method in which Mr. Claarlesworth's money was placed out, the commissioners add, speaking more particularly of a sum of .£1,600. "We find that Mr. J. C. D. Charlesworth, having provided the fund out of which the bribery, in fact, was afterwards carried on on his behalf, designedly . abstained up to the ele6ion from in quiring as to the manner in which that fund was being employed, having before the eleJtion the means of knowing and good grounds to suspect the manner of its disposal." Tho commissioners conclude their report as fellows : PRICE 4 D . STAMPED, 5D TiiE ANNEXATION OF 8.. i VOT. From Chambery under date of the 7th of Febru ary the following appeal to the English people against the annexation of Savoy to France has beeti received. It is signed by 24 of the leading men of the capital of Savoy : " SAVOY TO THE ENGLISH PEOPLE. " Chambery, Feb. 7. " During nearly the last six months some indivi duals of Savoy, whose petitions, carried from house to house, have not succeeded in obtaining 20 re spectable signatures, have formed the plot to make over Constitutional Savoy to the Imperial Govern ment of France. " The ('ourrier des A Ipes, which is their property and their organ, has since then never ceased to pro• claim the unanimous adhesion of Savoy to those desires of annexation. "As long as those assertions remained within our mountain range, our quiet and proud population treated them with contempt. "But the Paris press has thcught fit to make itself the echo of these falsehoods ; the officious ac complice of supposed ambitions, it has endeavoured to lead opinion astray, and to deceive Europe by a few isolated wishes to be the expres sion of the sentiments of the whole of Savoy. " Silence and inaction were no longer possible. " On the 29th of January last an important de monstration was made at Chambery, the capital of Savoy. Nearly 3,000 citizens of every class, rank, and profession—magistrates, lawyers, officials, doc tors, merchants, workmen, nearly all the officers of the National Guard, responding to the appeal of the patriotic committee constituted by themselves, met on the Champ de Mars, whence, with the na tional colours flying, they proceeded to the residence of the head of the Government, to declare publicly their wish to remain free under the Constitutional Government of Victor Emmanuel IL, the king, the honest man, and the first soldier of Italian inde pendence. "In this concurrence of citizens, marching in ad mirable order and manly dignity to the accomplish ment of a great duty, there were, doubtless, many opinions mingled together; but, platting aside the distinction of private and political views, all were united in one common devotion for their country and for liberty. " Such a manifestation was of a nature to excite the anger of the French press, so compliant to authority ; and we behold lately an incredible audacity of falsehood and calumnies di honouring the journals of France. " The demonstration of the 29th January has been most unworthily misrepresented. "The English people, accustomed by the free ex ercise of freedom not to allow itself to be taken in, accustomed also by its well-founded distrust to be on its guard against perfidy and interested ambi tion, will not be deceived by such mancouvres. "Threatened in her integrity, in her indepen dence, in her liberties, Savoy has counted upon Eng land. " Certainly, we have confidence in the loyalty and attachment to our country of Victor Emmanuel 11., in the straightforwardness and firmness of his Government, but we are also aware of the strength which power m:sied by error may wield in the world. "We come to you, people of England, because among all people you are great in liberty ; because your powerful voice, encouraging nations strug gling for their independence, can protect them by raising up insurmountable barriers before them. "In tho name of those joint interests which unite peoples, do not allow that old Allobrogia, which de fended its territory and its rights against the ancient rulers of the world, to become now the ransom of their descendants ; do not allow a people, however small it may be, to be extinguished, to give liberty to a nation, however great it may become. " May your Government, the faithful exponent of your sovereign orders, inform the world that Savoy, having become your ward in the hour of supreme danger, shall not be given up and sacrificed! "The defence of our liberties is also the defence of the liberties of the world, which to-morrow, per haps, may be compromised by an ambition which a first success would render stiongcr and more exact ing. " And, should ever a danger threaten the free, soil of England, the ardent and mature devotion of the people protected and saved by you, by Eng land, would afford you a secret and powerful sup port, which, joined to the patriotic energy of your children, would render you invincible." [Here follows the signatures.] MAJOR-GENERAL WILLIAMS ON TRE NATIONAL DEFENCES. Major-General Williams, of the Royal Engineers, who wrote upon the national defences in 1853, has just addressed a pamphlet to Mr. Sidney Herbert, in which he further developer his ideas on the sub ject of the defence of the south and south-eastern coasts, metropolis, and dockyards of England. The gist of the gallant officer's proposal is contained in the following sentenees, although, as a whole, and taken from a military point of view, the pamphlet is well worth perusing : " I propose, ' says Major-General Williams, "to occupy Beachy Head by an entrenched work, capable of containing 15,000 men, and consider its occupation a matter of the highest importance. In time of war it would be a cover for a frontier garri son, ready to repel attack, and a depot for brigades of artillery for the coast service. If that remark able headland were left undefended it might be seized upon by an enemy, and become a secure base of operations. Two other works of a similar na ture, one on Ashdown-hill, and another on the north side of Mariscott•hill, with the fortifications at Chatham, would complete the chain from the Medway to the English Channel, and,in my humble opinion, form the best protection far the metropolis. Field works, consisting of a ditch and parapet or bold profile, with sufficient buildings only to contain in times of peace an adequate garrison for their protec tion, are alone intended. In time of alarm the proper number of troops would be located in each, hutting or encamping themselves as on any other active ser vice ; but every summer these posts should be oc cupied by several regiments, who, in their drills and marches, should thoroughly explore all the country around, and should be instructed in the best mode of defending it, and of communicating with the next posts. Stone platforms, sheds for gun carriages, and magazines must of course be established in each, and the guns and projectiles kept there in readiness. These posts should be connected by railways, and by electric telegraph cables laid in troughs underground ; by which means instantaneous communication might be had at all times, and simultaneous movements concerted. If this system were further acted upon by the occu pation of Shooter's-hill, for the protection of Wool wich, and by the construction of entrenched camps at Brighton and Portsdown-hill, I believe the kingdom would be perfectly safe." The volunteer movement is supposed to be regarded with ridicule by military men. Major-General Williams criticises it in a very generous spirit. "In my opinion," he says, " it is scarcely possible t o overra t e th e im portance of the national ardour and determination evinced in the formation of volunteer artillery and rifle corps ; and although military men cannot re pose in them the confidence given to regular troops, it is very ungenerous and impolitic, either in speech or in writing, to discourage the extension and com pletion of this new arm of strength. Such it will undoubtedly prove to be, if judiciously fostered and controlled by Government ; and it will be well not to be parsimonious in supplying the wants of volunteers, who should not be called upon for any expense beyond their clothing." " We find that large bodies of non-electors to the number of several hundreds on each side, and in cluding on Mr. Ciiarlesworth's side at least several prizefighters, were employed by the respective can didates at wages varying from 3s. 6d. to ss. a man per diem for some time before and up to the day of election. These men were ostensibly employed as watchers and r unners for th e purpose o f de tecting and Preventing improper practices by the partisans of the opposing candidates respectively, but in our opinion not really for such purpose, but for the purpose pa r tly o f exerc i s i ng an im proper influence upon the ele c tion, by the expen diture of large sums of money in the borough, both in payment of the non-electors themselves, and of the publicans whose houses they frequented, and where they were supplied with refreshment, and partly also for the purpose of causing intimidation and annoyance to the canvassers and voters of the opposing parties respectively. One ease of actual abduction was proved before us, which will be found in the evidence of the witness Abraham Lupton. We have been informed by the witnesses that the employment of non-electors in the manner described is an established practice at the Wake field elections. We find that it is without any necessity or legitimate object, that it impedes and interferes with the freedom of election, and that it causes intimidation and great annoyance to the voters on both sides, and furnishes cloaks for bribery and corruption in various ways. The fact found by us that neither of the candidates thought proper to pay the non-electors through the election auditor, but adopted the alternative of paying them wages in a manner secret and declared illegal by statute 17th and 18th Viet., c. 102, s. 18, satisfies us that the employment of the non-electors in the manner described was well known to be unnecessary and illegal, but the provisions of that statute as to the payment of expenses through the auditor appear to have been made of no ,W ac count whatever by either of the candidates. e find that it was generally anticipated by the par tisans on both sides for some time before the said election that recourse would be had to bribery by their respective opponents, and we find that the fact that bribery was being carried en on both sides was, before the election, a matter of common notoriety throughout the borough, and ex cited but a scanty measure of disapprobation even on the part of those who did not actually join in the work of corruption. Lastly, we find, having regard to the length of time before the election at which the preparations for the work of corruption were commenced—to the large proportion (142 out of 866) of the whole constituency engaged in corrupt practices and guilty of bribery—to the number of persons (including 50, themselves electors) who voluntarily joined in the work of offering and giving bribes—to the zeal and skill they exhibited—to the readiness with which their services were received and their acts adopted—to the open way in which bribery was carried on by the canvassers and dis cussed amongst all classes—and to the manner in wh'cli the voters received and bargained with the canvassers on both sides, that large numbers of the electors were then not for the first time engaged in the like operations of gross corruption." Schedules are appended to the report, containing the names of persons who have been guilty of bri leery ; others, also, of those who have received bribes. There is a small list of persons who have been guilty of bribery on both sides. [ADVERTISEMENT.]—Notice.—In consequence of Messrs. Lawes and Morton having, just commenced 1860 with opposi tion similar to that which they previously advanced, and wish ing to do those gentlemen every justice, Mr. Thorley is induced to enlarge his coming pamphlet, making it 64 pages instead of 32 showing beyond doubt that their observations ou the so-called " Concentrated Cattle Food." and so-called "feeding statistics," are without foundation; that the Hothamsted experiment was not made with his food, and consequently that this complete failure must either be through mism inage ment or from buying the Condiment at the wrong shop.

IMMENSE FLOOD IN NORTH -I'ORA-sHrRE. The great depth of snow which covered the moorlands in the North Riding commenced disap pearing on Sunday, and on Monday the whole course of the rivers Rye, Leven, CoSta, and Der went was flooded. On Tuesday mor n i ng th e watery waste which presented i tselt was th e c ause of great con s t erna ti on . During the night the waters had risen so rapidly that the whole length of the vales of Rye, Derwent, and York was inun dated for great distances on each aide of the respective rivers. Many thousands of acres. of wheat, newly sown before the snow, are under water to a great depth, and the • seed totally lost. The few turnips, too, which had escaped the disease, and were kept for spring are also flooded, some four feet deep, and will be wasted. In ltydale, in a farmer's sheepfold, on turnips, several drowned sheep were found;, and nearer Mallon some parties have had to wa'ie breast-high in the water ti rescue their cattle. For miles the hedges have totally disappeared. It. is many Tears since so high a flood has been witni)ssed. On 'Tues day night a heavy fall of snow set in, and there is every probability of the waters rising still higher. The merchants' yards and premises ix Mahon are all flooded, and the occupants of 'some , cottages in Norton are compelled to reside upstairs, the houses being surrounded by water and filled with it in the lower rooms. The trains between York and Scar borough can only just travel. The highroads in the low country are in some places more than a yard deep in water.—Mancleester Examiner and Times. .~-- THE SOCIAL EVIL. One of the most extraordinary meetings for years past took place yesterday morning (or rather the proceedings were to have commemeed at midnight on Tuesday), at the St. James's Restaurant, St. James's-hall, 69, Regent-street, in connexion with the important question of the great social evil. The meeting was none other than one of "fallen women," for the purposes of hearing prayer and addresses, and originated in this manner :—Some gentlemen connected with the Country Towns' Missions, English Monthly Tract Society, Female Aid Society, London Female Preventive and Refor matory Institution, the Trinity House, and other ins►itutions, feeling anxious for the welfare of the multitude of fallen women who congregate every night in the Haymarket, Regent-street, and the principal casinos and caf& in the neighbourhood, resolved, after mature consideration, to attempt to convene some of those unhappy persons in a suit able place near those localities, were judicious ad dresses might be given, to be followed by prayer. The mode which to the conveners appeared most likely to succeed wl.s to invite them to tea and cotile ; and a neat card, enclosed in an envelope, was distributed among them at the casinos, cafes, and in the streets, indited as follows : " The favour of your company is requested by several friends, who will meet at the St. James's Restaurant, 69, Regent-street, to take tea and coffee together, on Wednesday night, Feb. 8, at 12 o'clock precisely." Some hundreds of these were distributed duringthe past few days, and, as will be seen, the experiment met with a - great amount of success, notwithstand ing that many treated the matter with ridicule, while numerous others thought the m hole affair a hoax. Such, however, it did not turn out to be; for shortly before midnight a large number of those unfortunate creatures arrived at e entrance of the St. James's Restaurant. Here they were shown into the large dining room of the hall, capable of holding some hundreds of persons. There was an abundant supply of tea and coffee, with bread and butter, toast, and cake, to which the strange assem bly did good justice, at the various tables about the room, and round which they clustered in small par ties of six or eight, chattin over the peculiarity of the meeting, and wondering shat was to be the course of proceeding. The number gradually in creased till there must have been at least 500 per sons present, and these were solely composed of the unfortunate creatures whose moral and social condition the meeting had been convened to amelio rate, excepting some 30 or 35 clergymen and gentle men who hid been instrumental in calling the meeting. Of course, the meeting was not allowed to be a public one so far as regarded the admission of the other sex; for, had it been so, no doubt- a very large number would have assembled out of curiosity, if not for any worse motive. While the repast was going on the principal gentlemen pre sent mustered together at a conspicuous spot for the purpose of addresses being delivered to the meeting. Among them were the Hon. and Rev. Baptist Noel, th e Rev. W. Brock, the Rev. W. O'Neill, the Rev. Houghton, Mr. Latouche (tho banker), Mr. W, J. Maxwell, Mr. Theophilus Smith, and others. Shortly after one o'clock the Rev. W. BROCK stepped forward and briefly opened the proceedings by stating the object of the meeting. The Hon. and Bev. BAPTIST Nom, then addressed those assembled in an eloquent, yet pathetic and affectionate discourse, alluding to his hearers as his "dear young friends." He commenced by drawing a picture of the history of a virtuous woman from her childhood, pointing out the unspeakable love of the father and mother for the child, the association with sisters and brothers, the affection of the hus band, and at last the love which she herself bears her own children ; and then he compared that pic ture with the position of those who had erred from the paths of virtue. It was quite possible, how ever, he assured his hearers that some of them might yet be happy ; they might ask him how, and say it was difficult to become so—and so it was, he ad mitted, but it was not impossible, for they had a friend who was even more tender than toe mother, and stronger in His love than thu father ; and One who would never desert them. He was a friend who would rescue them if they truAed in His bound less confidence. That friend was Jesus their Saviour, who had died for them ; He was with them in that room, as certain as possible, and just ready to be their friend ; therefore he entreated them to turn to their Saviour. Their whole future depended upon whether they would have Him or not ; lie could take them to glory from a life which must end in perdition, could cleanse them of their sins, and carry them to God. If they asked him when to do it he should say at once, and they would be happy for the rest of their lives; if they believed in Him they would be saved. The Saviour himself said, " God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Woe ld they accept the offer or not ? lie entreated them to accept it at once and be happy for everi their cheeks never fading, their conscience would sleep in peace, and they would live long to enjoy the esteem of those who were good. Let them take the resolution at once, and they would never regret it. The hon. and rev. gentleman then read letters from several girls who had been reclaimed, stating. the happiness they felt, and then he went on to say that his young friends might ask how could they follow the course he pointed out. Of course, it, would require some sacrifice to be made, but they must expect that, and help each other, and it would not be a matter of regret ultimately that they had. made the sacrifice. They might think they would h t i o happy for chbe WaB ne ver be loved agai n, but he told them they would. theis Therefore,acrificele;ttfhoernwi a sa s y it li n k o e t o b t e h dt e t r e‘ s ‘r. , " Let k e Ug ma e notpe rdi tito eve r than to walk on to the et td conclusion,heen heeding what he had sa id.

O'N e ill, an d others then offered up prayers, and the effect produced by the earnest and touching appeal of the first-named gentleman, delivered in a deep tone of voice, was most touching. It was announced that any present who repented their sins would be received into the London Re formatory or the Trinity Home, and that further arrangements would be made for the reception of others elsewhere if funds could he provided. The meeting broke up about 3 o'clock. The conduct of those present was highly credit : able, and quite void of levity or contumely, and we may fairly say that the experiment so far has been successful,
