The Directors give notice that, in consequence of the great and undiminished demand for Steam Vessels upon the Indian rivers, and the wide field presenting itself for their profitable c en l oin pi_oYment, they have resolved to double the capital of the The Directors have the satisfaction of announcing that the ;learners and barges, consisting of twelve vessels in all, which hey forwarded from this country in August last, have now rived safely in India, and will commence plying upon the rivers without delay. An equal number of vessels of still greater power is at present in preparation, and will be sent Out as soon as possible. , Before embarking in the present undertaking the Directors bad not only satisfied themselves of its eminently pro fi table nature, but they had secured for it the marked co-operation of the Indian Government, by the acquisition of a subsidy; and the Government, both by the gift of land for stations, Workshops, and depots, of wood for fuel, and in every other Way, has rendered every possible aid to the present under taking. At the same time tne Directors have Insured com plete exemption from Government control and interference ; and this is the only Company so distinguished which pos sesses any Government support. The Directors have the satisfaction of finding that not only the Reports of the Company's servants in India, but the cunettrrent testimony of the adyices received from that Country, through whatever channel, completely confirms tile favourable anticipations since they long formed of the profit • character of the present undertaking. It would be lin- Dessible, however, within the limits of an advertisement, to teeapitulate the numerous evidences of this truth which the Directors are constantly receiving ; and they content them selves, therefore, with giving the following quotation from a Teeent leading article Times," which shows that simi tar information had been reaching that paper through its I ndian correspondents. te 'Times,' Jan. , 1859. " It is no t only From Gover h nment but the whole nation that seems r emiss.

Observe— opposite the York hotel, W. The following is a more extended report of the speech de livered by Mr. James at the official announcement of the poll than appeared in The Sun of yesterday : Mr. JAMES said—Electors of the borough of Mary lerone—When a great general rises on the morrow of a great battle and surveys the field upon which the fate of his country has been decided, whatever his feelings of triumph may be, they must be embittered by the sight of the wounded and the dying—(cheers and laughter)—who have shed their blood in their country's cause. (Cheers.) Our constitutional triumph will be attended by no such re grets, because, if there have been any animosities, any jealousies, any strifes in this contest, knowing as we now do the result, let us bury all remembrance of them. (Cheers.) lam not here to exult over a beaten opponent. (Cheers.) I have fought the battle, I trust, fairly; but, at the same time, we defy any clique, any cabal, or any coterie to dictate—aye, or even dare to suggest—the choice of a re presentative to a free and independent constituency. (Cheers.) I am not vain enough to think that the vast enthusiasm which has animated the people during this con test is due to any merit of my own. No, you have been aroused into one common action with a view to rescue the borough from any attempt at 'dictation. (Cheers.) It is your triumph, independent of any merits of the candidate, a triumph which will show that the people of England will exercise their own free choice in the elec tion of their representative, uninfluenced and unde terred by any species of dictation, however much it may be attempted by the remnant of a cold Whig cabal, which is ever trading upon a traditional policy, rather than relying on and appe aling to the sympathies of the country— a cold exclusive class, who are democrats when out of power, and an aristocratic and exclusive body when in. (Cheers.) Let me tell you that the result of this contest has shattered that party for ever. (Loud cheers.) If they think they can live upon that exclusive policy, and dispense with appealing to the sympathies and the genius of the English people; I tell them that they are much mistaken, and this c 4 ontest, will teach them that they are wrong. (Cheers.) Now, gentlemen, you are aware that by some arrangement or other this contest was hurried on in a most extraordinary way. Some correspondence has been published, and I un derstand that after I left the hustings the other day Mr. FOrtescue made refet enco to me. Had I been aware that 'he was going to mention my name I should have remained; but I understand from what I have read in the journals that that gentleman said I had been guilty of uttering an unqualified falsehood. (Cries of "No, no I") Then the journals are wrong. If the statement had been true, in all probability I should have written to that gentleman; and as duelling is out of fashion, and I happen not to be particularly fond of it, you might depend upon it I should not have fought a duel till the long vaca tion. (Cheers and laughter.) However, that gentleman stated that there had, at all events, been some errone ous construction put upon his letter. Now, the para graph in that letter to which I referred was to this effect :—" Shortly after this I waited upon Sir Ben jamin Hall, and communicated to him my brother's in tention, together with his address." It is not very good English, but let that pass. (Laughter.) It immediately struck me that that correspondence left some other gentle man in a considerable mess, and I am perfectly certain that Sir Benjamin Hall will and must take the earliest opportu nity of explaining the part he has acted in the matter. (Cheers.) Sir Benjamin Hall last night addressed to me a letter, which he desired me to read to you. I have great pleasure in doing so, and I am perfectly certain he will some day or other appoint a time to meet you, and give that explanation which will be satisfactory to you, as his consti tuents, on this subject. Inasmuch, moreover, as he ex presses his intention to take that course, I shall read his letter without making any remark upon it. It is in these terms : " Great Stanhope-street, Feb. 24. " My dear Mr. James,—Much misunderstanding appears to exist in the borough as to a part which it is supposed that I have taken in regard to the retirement of Lord Ebrington, and the selection of Colonel Romilly as a candidate. " I have refrained from taking part in the election, and for that reason, and that reason only, I shall abstain from ap pearing upon the hustings to-morrow. but I shall take the first opportunity that one of the ensuing public meetings on the Reform Bill will allow to make a statement to the elec tors who may be present, which will prove to them that I have not abused their confidence, and which will, I am sure, re move any impressions to the contrary. As regards yourself; I have not attempted to influence a single vote either one way or the other, and it will afford me the very greatest plea sure to co-operate with you in promoting those interests which are now placed jointly in our hands. " I shall be glad if you will read this note to-morrow at the declaration of the poll, because I should be extremely sorry to be for one moment misunderstood by you who are now my colleague, or by those with whom I have been so long asso ciated as regards the representation of the borough.—l am, dear Mr. James. yours truly, " E. James, Esq." "B. HALL. I think it but fair and just to him to suspend your judg ment until he has had the opportunity of addressing you. (Cheers.) But no person can doubt that whoever may have done it, and whatever part Sir Benjamin Hall may have taken in the transaction, it was an extremely short space of time into which the - contest was pressed—only five days. (Cries of " Shame') There must have been a mutual arrangement somewhere. (Cheers.) But you have de feated it ; you have triumphed over it, and I believe your success will read a lesson that will not soon be forgotten. (Cheers.) The result of this conte it cannot be exaggerated when it tells the country that the people are to be them selves the judges of these things, and that Whig cliques, Whig coteries, and Whig cabals are not to barter away their rights. (Cheers.) You have determined to be the judges on these matters, and your triumphant return of me —not for any individual merit I possess, but as the vindi cator of your rights—will, I repeat, tell the country that an English constitte‘ hey will maintain and act upon their own opinions, and that no one shall dictate to them. (Cheers.) I have no doubt that my return will create a considerable deal of discussion. I say nothing against my hon. oppo nent, but I can imagine that in the drawing-rooms—and I say so, because mention is made, in the cerrespondence, of Eaton and Grosvenor squares--considerable consternation will be excited, and that there will be all kinds of exclama tions. "Dear me I—what a dreadful thing has happened." "Do you know what has happened ?" (aughter.) And then Lady Constantia Disconcerta will exclaim, " Our dear amiable friend the Whig colonel is defeated I" (Cheers and laughter.) And then great will be the ejaculations against that horrid Edwin James and those vulgar electors of Marylebone. There will be such a flutter among the Whigs about the event that it would be extremely amusing to wit ness it. (Cheers and laughter. They will say, " Our most amiable colonel has failed." Well, he is an amiable man, but I venture with great deference to say that the interests of a great constituency like this are too important to be en trusted to his management. (Cheers.) What is it they say ? Last night I was told, " Why, of course, you have got your return ; we could not withstand it ; the Tories supported you, and the Conservatives supported you." Sup pose they did; why, then, lam very much obliged to them ; but I beg to tell you that they did it upon a principle more just and honourable than any that ever actuated the cold and miserable Whig cabal, that never feel any gratitude towards their supporters, and who care nothing for the people. (Cheers.) With them it is a mere question how th e Government is to be bandied from one to the other, and they are in all respects a hundred years behind the genius and sympathies of the people. (Cheers.) Well, the Tories, it is said have supporte d me—and why should they not ? I daresay they say to themselves as Horne Tooke said when he had to choose a jury from a list prepared by the Crown. " I must select my jury, I suppose, but it is very like selecting 12 oranges out of a ch.est of rotten ones." So, I dare say, the Tories say of their Choice between my hon. and gallant opponent and myself—" These men are like two rotten oranges from which we have to choose, but at all events we like• to see fair play in the contest, and that no undue advantage shall be gained by the issuing of the writ; therefore, for the love of fair play, we will support Mr. James, and tell his opponents that they shall not dictate to a constituency like that of Marylebone." (Cheers,) But there is another reason for my receiving this support. Imagine a respectable old Conservative, whom you may sometimes see r living upon a Tory pension and port wine— (laughter)—and walking through, the streets of Maryle bone ; and that he suddenly sees a placard with large capi tals, bearing the name of the. Right Honourable Sir Wm. Goodenough Hayter, Bart., as at the bead of Colonel Romilly's committee. What does this old. Conservative say ? "What! is this your little game ? (Cheers and laughter.) Dr this to be made a pocket Whig borough ? Is the late Secretary of the Treasury of the Whigs and of Lord Palmerston to come to the committee and canvass and tell you to say, as Alderman Salomons said to a friend of mine, ' I would have willingly voted for Mr. James but Sir William Hayter booked me."' (Cheers and laughter.) Why, the Tory and Conservative would naturally and very properly say, "This is a thing I cannot put up with. This is playing the little game, and I won't stand it. Let us have fair play in the borough ; don't let Whig cliques, coteries, or cabals dictate to us." Yes, it is the fact, that finding at the head of Col. Romilly's committee the name of Sir William Hayter, the honest Conservative, like a gentleman came forward and said—" James shall not be defeated by such tricks." (Cheers.) It was said to me last night, " You owe your election to the voice of the people, and not 'to the votes of the electors." Now the Whigs don't understand that. They hate the real voice of the people. They think, as I said the other day, that the people are born to be governed by them, and that they are born to govern the people. But not only do they say that the Tories have carried my election, but they further affirm that the publicans have done it also. (Cheers.) Now, as to the publicans, that remark comes with very ill grace from my opponent's friends, when the very man who seconded the nomination of Colonel Romilly is a publican. (Cheers and laughter.) Yes, and that gentleman told you that lawyers were to be bought and sold, and that elo quence was a dangerous thing. If that be so, then I may venture to say that he will be a very harmless gentle man in society. (CheerS and laughter.) But my friend and opponent, Colonel Romilly, had been introduced to you as one of the last • specimens of the Whig faction. (Cheers.) That faction is just dying out, and if any specimen of the Whig faction is to be preserved they must go further ;up from here and put it into the Zoological Gardens. (Cheers.) Anxious as you may all be, as a natural curiosity, to see the last specimen of a Whig of the year 1859, I don't think you will embalm it in your constituency. (Cheers.) But, amyl friends, I beg you not to suppose that I am insensible to the important trust - I undertake in becoming your representative in the House of Conunons. (Cheers.) It is not as a mere object of ambition that I have taken upon myself that responsi bility. I shall enter upon the discharge of my duties deeply impressed with the importance of the sacred trust now de volved upon me. (Cheers.) Islaiow of no prouder position that a citizen of a free country can occupy than that of being entrusted by their own free voice with the public interests of a vast constituency like this. (Cheer's.) Em bracing as it does every class of men, distinguished by their wealth, by their skill in art, by their attainments in science, and by their industry, the borough of Marylebone contains within it a constituency the representation of which con fers upon him who is the object of their choice the highest honour. (Cheers.) But while representing the electors whose names are on the poll, I feel that I am not the less the representative of those who have no votes to give. (Cheers.) I consider all alike to be my constituents, and that I represent all from the richest to the poorest—from the man who is struggling to live on his 10, 15, or 20 shil lings a week to the proudest and wealthiest of the occu pants of the houses we see around us. (Cheers.) lam aware of the important duties I have undertaken to dis charge, and I shall devote my best energies to the perform ance of them. If I fail, then reproach me when I meet you again as a traitor to your cause. (Cheers.) But, gentle- men, we are living in days of" social and political progress. It matters not what Gove rnmen t i s in office, we must have political and social improvement. (Cheers.) Look at the vast measures'of reform that have been accomplished within the memory of all present. There is the reform of the House of Commons, Catholic emancipation, the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts, and though last, not least, the abolition of that last remnant of aristocratic monopoly —the corn-law. (Cheers.) But, against every one of these measures idle fears were conjured tip, and it was suggested that in advocating them you were overturning the constitu tion and bringing about a revolution in the country. It was an idle notion, and experience had shown it. The -con stitution of this country was established upon the principle that everything required gradual improvement. Wh en we yesterday saw her Majesty pass by, and when the heart felt shouts of a loyal people reached her ear —shouts which the despots of Europe would give their thrones to hear— (cheers)—probably her Majesty was told by some one near her that at the end of that place there was a group of people exercising their constitutional rights in returning a member of their free choice to Parliament ; and well it would have been, if, also, there had been sitting beside her some adviser to whisper in her ear, as they told the• Roman Consul in his triumph, that there was no danger to her Throne from the crowds assembled in the front of these hustings—(cheers)-- that her Throne was based upon their feelings of loyalty, and that there were thousands then assembled ;to whom might freely be extended political rights, and that such an extension would be the bulwark of our constitution and the security of her Throne. (Cheers.) The march of progress must go on ; the political, social, and material improve ment of the people cannot be stopped. " Come bright Improvement on the car of Time, And rule the spacious world from clime to clime." (Cheers.) We must have political advancement; not rash, reckless, inconsiderate innovation; but such advancement as the country demands, and such as the thought, the re flection, and the intelligence of the people wills. (Cheers.) Believe me there is no danger in this, but on the contrary such measures would make the great masses of this country loyal and contented, and render more brilliant and more enduring the destinies of the Hest and the mightiest country upon which the sun, ever shone. - (Loud cheers.) MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Feb. 25. (Before Mr. Creasy.) THE PARISH OF ST. MARYLEBONE V. HANNAH REED. Yesterday morning, on the defendant, who had been found guilty on Wednesday last of keeping a brothel, in the house, No. 11, Buckingham-street, Marylebone, being brought up for sentence, Mr. Ribton moved an arrest .of judgment on the ground that the parish in which the street was situate had not been named in the indictment. As the offence was a local one the parish ought to have been stated, and it was not, the learned counsel contended, one of those formal defects which before verdict could have been amended under the 25th sec. of the 14th and 15th Vic., cap. 100. Mr. Metcalf, on behalf of the parish, contended that the objection ought to have been taken before verdict, and cited the cases " Sell v. the Queen in error," and the " Queen v. Holmes." Mr. Creasy, in a somewhat lengthened judgment, stated that he had fully considered the point, and although not entirely without doubt, yet on the whole he was of opinion that the objection was a valid one, and that the judgment must be arrested. He added that as the parish might, if so disposed, take the case by writ of error to a higher court, he felt bound to state his reasons at greater length than he would otherwise have done. The defendant was accordingly discharged. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—Feb. 25. GUILDHALL.—George Bush, described as an attor ney's clerk, residing at Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire, was charged with wilful and corrupt r oer j ury, alleged to have been committed in an action tried before Mr Justice Erle, in the Court of Queen's Bench, Guildhall. Mr. Sleigh appeared for the prosecution; and Mr. Ro binson for the defence. It appeared from the evidence of several witnesses that in 1856 a Mr. Hawkins let a house in Bishops Stortford to a Mr. Wisby, and in the presence of Mr. Smith, a builder, and the prosecutor in these proceedings, agreed to allow Mr. Wisby £5O towards the repairs and alterations Mr. Wisby contemplated making, and the amount was to be paid to Mr. Smith, who was employed to do the work, out of the rent, which amounted to £lB a-year, an arrangement which Mr. Smith acceded to. The work was finished, and upon application being made byMr. Smith to Mr. Wisby for £94, the amount for the repairs, that person denied his liability, and then upon the ad vice of Mr. Leigh, an attor ney of Bishops Stortford, he proceeded against Mr. Haw kins, who at once paid the sum of £5O into Mr. Leigh's hands, alleging that was the extent of his liability. Under these circumstances Mr. Smith sued Mr. Wisby for the ba lance, and on the trial, which took place before Mr. Justice Erle, Mr. Smith's books were produced to show that he had entered Mr. Wisby as the responsible person with Mr. Hawkins. The defendant, Bush, was in the employ of Mr. Leigh, who at that time was acting for Mr. Wisby, and he (Bush) was examined with reference to those books, when he stated that on the 27th November, 1857, he called, by Mr. Leigh's direction, upon Mr. Smith, to in quire the amount of his claim against Mr. Hawkins, and on that occasion he examined the books, and observed that the pages were blank at the headings, and that the name of Wisby was not entered in any way in connection with the work in question. Upon this evidence Mr. Justice Erie suggested, as the jury, could not agree, that a juror should be withdrawn, and afterwards directed a stet processus to issue. Under these circumstances Mr. Smith commenced the present proceedings to relieve himself from the odium attached to him in consequence of the result of that trial, and on being sworn declared that the books produced were in precisely the same state as they wore at the trial, and at the time the defendant alleged he had examined them that the name of Wisby appeared, not only upon the heads of the different folios containing the account of that work, but that the index contained the nams of Wisby and Hawkins under the letter " W," while there was no entry of either name under letter " H," and further that on no occasion had the defendant either looked into or examined his books until he was put into the witness-box and examined at the trial. Mr. Smith, jun., gave similar testimony, denying the defendant's examination of his father's books, and a Mr. Brazier said he had been in the habit of being associated in business with Mr. Smith for years, and in Feb., 1857, he had occasion to go through the books with Mr. Smith in reference to some work, and he observed that the books were then in the exact state in which they now appeared with regard to the name of Wisby in the headings and indices. Mr. Smith, sen., admitted that the defendant called upon him on the 27th of November, 1857, in reference to the account of another person that Mr. Leigh had received in structions to sue, but he did not examine the books. Mr. Summers, an auctioneer, said he examined Mr. Smith's books some time in October or November, 1857, for the purpose of making a valuation of the work, and he was prepared to swear it was his firm belief the name of IVisby was on the head of the folios, and that he found out the names by referring to the index for them. This witness said he was examined as a witness at , the trial by Seijeant Parry, but he never asked him a single question as to the state of the books. Mr. Sleigh said this was the evidence for the prosecu tion, and if the magistrate thought th a t a p r i ma facie case had been made out, he would ask him to hold the defendant to bail to answer this charge at the Old Bailey. Mr. Robinson said if the defendant was mistaken as to the state of the book when he gave his evidence, there was not the slightest ground for imputing wilful and corrupt perjury to him on that account, particularly after the course adopted by Mr. Justice Erie upon the trial. Sir F. G. Moon said there was, in his opinion, a strong prima facie case to go to a jury, as he believed the state ments of Mr. Smith, and the witnesses for the prosecution were honestly given. If the defendant wished for an ad journment he would grant it; if not, he was prepared to commit the case for trial. The defendant was, after some discussion, committed for trial, and held to bail in one surety in £'o, and his own re cognisance in a similar account. CHARGE AGAINST THE MASTER OF THE VINE HOUNDS. Yesterday (Friday) Mr. Thomas Marsh, master of the Vine Hounds, was summoned before the bench of magi strates at the Kingsclere petty sessions, Mr. Melville Portal in the chair, charged with causing and procuring a fox to be cruelly ill-treated and tortured, on the morning of Sunday, the 30th of January last, contrary to the pro visions of the 12th and 13th Victoria, cap. 92. The prosecution was instituted by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, in whose behalf Mr. Cave, aolibiter, of Newbury, and Mr Middleton, the secre tary of the society, were in attendance. From the evidence of William Searle, hea.d . -whip in the service of the defendant, it appeared that on Saturday, the 29th of January, a fox was run to ground near Kingsclere. It was dug out and brought to the kennels, when the master ordered it to be chained up in the dairy. On the following morning (Sunday), about 20 minutes Wore 8 o'clock, Mr. Marsh came into the dairy, and told witness and the under whip to take the fox, and cut its left hind leg off. They took hold of the fox, and Mr. Marsh asked the whip which leg would be best to cut off. Witness said in reply, "We had better cut the fore leg off." Witness, with the assistance of the under-whip, cut one of its fore legs off, just above the first joint, the under-whip holding the fox by his ears while it was done. Mr. Marsh stood by watching him, and said, " You had better injure another leg, to prevent its getting away." Witness did not injure another leg, but put the fox into a sack by his master's orders, and took it to Mr. Taplin's, Rough Bank, a short distance off. His master followed him to the place, accompanied by the under-whip, both on horseback and wearing scarlet coats, and 26 couples of hounds. After dragging the fox a little way in the sack he let it out. The poor creature at first would not ran, but after having been hit with the sack, it ran round several times, and then started off, and ran about 200 yards, the dogs after it, and the master taking the lead on horseback. The fox went dreadfully lame and the hounds immediately ran into it and killed it. Witness cut off the brush and gave it to his master. Mr. Marsh, who conducted his own defence, cross- exa mined the witness, but did not shake his testimony on the material points. He stated, however, that Mr. Marsh had told him on the 31st of January he might leave if he liked, but had not discharged him until Thursday evening, at nine o'clock, the day before the hearing. Several other witnesses were examined, and corroborated the above statement. Mr. Marsh, in defence, admitted that he had given orders to turn the fox out on Sunday morning, but most positively denied having given any orders to the head - whip to maim the fox in any way. He could most solemnly swear that although he was a great enemy of foxes, yet he had never in his life caused a fox to be maimed, and it was not likely he should do so at his age. He regretted the fox had been turned out before the hounds on a Sunday morning, but it was done without a thought. The under-whip . was called, who said that he had never heard his master give any instructions to the head-whip to cut off the fox's leg. The bench retired for a few minutes, and on their return the Chairman said they had fully considered the evidence in all its bearings, and although th ey could come to no o ther conclusion than that a gross cruelty had been perpe trated, as well as an outrage t o p u bli c d ecency and public morality in the defendant taking his hounds out on a Sun s. d. s. d Cherries, per lb.. 0 0 tcr 0 0 'Filberts, per lb .. 0 6to 0 9 Cobnuts, per lb '0 10 to 1 0 Almonds, per bus 0 oto 0 0 Walnuts, per 100 0 oto 0 0 Figs, per d0z..... 0 oto o o Strawberries, prpto oto 0 0 Gooseberries, sv. 0 oto 0 0 Currants, per do. 0 oto 0 0 Plums, per do. .. 0 oto 0 0 Greengages, pr do. 0 oto 0 0 Raspberries, prptlO oto 0 0 VEGETABLES.

At the market this morning there was a thin attendance of the town and country trade, but the business passing was limited, and no further quotable alteration occurred in the value of either wheat or flour. The demand for Indian corn was quite in retail, at about previous rates. The same may be said of oats and oatmeal. Beans, peas, and barley neglected, and without change in their value.
