TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE LYONS AND AVIGNON RAILWAY (SEBASTIANI'S) COMPANY.' 62, King William-street, London, June 24, 1846. Gentlemen—The lease of this line having been at length conceded by the French Government, your directors lose no time in reporting to you the result of their proceedings. They need scarcely remind you that, at the time of your original association, you were without competitors, and a reasonable expec tation was entertained of obtaining the lease for this company on favourable terms. More recently, however, it became apparent that, by reason of the delay which had intervened, and during which great changes had occurred, we had no chance of obtaining the undivided possession of the lease, without submitting to terms which would have rendered the possession of the whole far less-be neficial, than the occupation of a part of a concession made on more advantageous terms. Our attention has, therefore, been for some time past directed to affect an amalgamation of interests between our own Company and the strongest of oar competitors ; and find ing that the Company represented by Mr. Talabot was supported by the greatest amount of local interest and wealth, we placed our selves in eommunication, and ultimately in alliance with them. A deputation of our body proceeded to Paris to carry this object into effect, and the result of the negotiation was an agreement that, in case that Company should obtain the lease, 23,320 shares of 500 francs (20/.) each, should be handed over to your directors for ac count of the shareholders, and for rateable distribution among them. We have now the satisfaction to state that the lease has been ob tained by Mr. Talabot's Company, on terms quite satisfactory. The duration of the lease is 44 years, 298 days. It remains for us only at the present ntoment to point out that the above number of shares divided rateably amongst your body will give to each shareholder in this (Sebastiani's) Company one con stituted share in respect of every seven held by him in this Company. When the number of shares is not exactly divisible by 7, we r ropose to issue temporary memoranda, or scrips representing fractions of shares, to be afterwards called in and exchanged for integral shares, upon terms which will be fully explained on the face of the document. The deposit on the constituted shares is fixed at 125 francs (51.) a share ' • and there will, therefore, be returnable to the share heders the sum of 91., together with one share in the constituted Company, in exchange for every seven shares in this Company. You are requested to transmit, at your earliest convenience, to this office, 62, - King William-street, City, from 11 till 3 your present letters of allotment and bankers' receipts, and you will then be flit - fished with proper forms upon your signature, of which your con stituted shares will be duly registered in your respective names, and the balance of your deposits will be returned to you. We are, Gentlemen, your obedient servants, WILLIAM JAMES CHAPLIN, CHARLES DEVAUX, JOHN MASTERMAN, JUN., JOHN MOSS, MATTHEW UZIELLI. NATIONAL LOAN FUND LIFE ASSUR ANCE SOCIETY, 26, CORNHILL LONDON.

UNITED KINGDOM LIFE A 33 iRANCE COMPANY, 8, WATERLOO-PLACE, PALL-MALL, LONDON. The -attention of the Equitable Policy Holders 16 particularly called to the Half Credit Scales of Premium of this C mpany, by which Table the Bonus to be declared at the next investigation, in January, 1850, may be secured at a present Annual Payment of one half the rates charged by other Companies. In the event of death, the sum insured will be paid, less the amount of Premiums on Credit. Should the life insured survive the declaration of the Bonus, the Policy may be allowed to lapse, and the Company will renounceal I claim for the Half Premiums which may be due thereon ; or, in the event of the party being at that time in bad health, the Policy can be kept up by commencing to pay the full Premium of the age as when first accepted. The above plan, originating with this Company, was found peculiarly advantageous at the last Equitable Division in 1840, when it was largely adopted, and many of the Policies then effected are still in force, and large Bonuses have been added to them on the scale of the following Table:— Sum Assured.

Contents :—How to ensure perfect digestion, tranquil feeling, a good night's rest, a clear head, and a contented mind. By an ob servance of the instructions kerein contained, the feeble, the ner vously delicate, even to the most shattered constitution, may acquire the greatest amount of physical happiness, and reach in health the full period of life allotted to man. " How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun, To reach in health ftill threescore years and ten." These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, for they tell of matters every living crea ture able to understand ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our owu organization, the laws whereby our existence and tho issue tucreor in th.friac veroJ iivaituy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities In the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all ; by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the like advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation of our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may beeeltederetaettiobnese.ummit of perfection, as best becomes the, highest of God's The author's justification for this seeming eulogy of his own writ ings, and the avowal of their integrity of purpose, must be measured by their perusal—his accredited qualifications guarantee that the topics broached involve his legitimate study and pursuit.

MESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON re spectfully announce that they are directed by the trustees, under the will of the late Right Hon. Sir William Garrow, to offer for SALE by AUCTION, at the Mart, near the Bank of England, in JULY next, in lots, Several very eligible FREEHOLD and COPYHOLD ESTATES, in and near the town of BARNET, comprising a Freehold Residence, with gardens and paddocks, &c., in the best part of the Town ; some very valuable Meadows, close to the town, and a small farm, about a mile distant, in the parish of Shenley ; part...ion lease at very mode rate rents, rendering them safe and desirable objects for investment. Further particulars will be published, with the day of sale, and in the interim every information may be obtained at their offices in Waterloo-place, Pall-mall ; or of Mr. IL Lewin, solicitor, 8, St. Martin's-place, Charing-cross. THE DELL.—One of the most admired BIJOUX of WINDSOR PARK, and long distinguished for its unrivalled and surprisingly . _ magnificent view of the Castle. MESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON respectfully announce that the late sale of this estate having been abandoned, they are commissioned by the noble proprietor to SUBMIT to PUBLIC SALE, at the Auction Mart, in July (unless an acceptable offer shall be previously made by Private Contract), the above delightful and highly distinguished FREEHOLD VILLA, at Bishopsgate, a remarkably dry and healthy spot, overlooking one of the most romantic portions of the park, through which is its beautiful drive of only three miles to Windsor. It contains an elegant and spacious suite of reception roams and carved oak library, and alto gether accommodation for a large family, with handsome conserva tories, partly surrounding the house, capital stabling and coach houses, &c., walled garden, complete farm-yard and cottage, entrance lodge, beautiful pleasure grounds, lawn, and paddocks, in all seventeen acres, abundantly supplied with spring and soft water. A cottage and about seven acres, alittle detached, might be a separate lot. The whole is in the most perfect order, and the purchaser may treat for the elegant and useful fittings and furniture with the estate, so as to have immediate possession. This enviable retreat can only be viewed with cards, which Islay lee had at their offices in Waterloo-place, Pall•mall or will be for warded to applicants giving their own address. Very IMPORTANT and VALUABLE FREEHOLD ESTATE, embracing the entire PARISH of ADDINGTON, free of Tithes and Land-tax, and almost of Poor-rates, with its spacious Mansion, excellent Manor for game, the Advowson, and several first-rate Grazing and Dairy Farms (let at about 2,5001.), extending nearly to the town of Winslow, and only five miles from the county and borough town of Buckingham, distinguished as the family seat and domain of the late Hon. General Vere POulett, forming a singu larly eligible and solid investment for capital, in a proverbially rich and fine sporting county. MESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON are commissioned to announce that the above remarkably valuable and truly important FREEHOLD ESTATE will be SOLD by AUCTION in SEPTEMBER next, unless an acceptable offer shall be previously made by Private Treaty. It comprises the spacious and substantial Mansion of Addington, with walled garden, capital stabling, &c., placed on a gentle eleva tion nearly in the centre of one of the most fertile domains in the county, embracing the entire parish, nearly encircled by a fine brook, and chiefly rich grazing and dairy land, the whole tithe free, and let to old respectable tenants at rents amounting to about 2,5001. pe: annum. The perpetual Advowson, with its parsonage and glebe, and the Manor, which is well stocked with game, appertain to the es tate. The timber is nearly all elm, a certain proof of the fertility of the soil. The high turnpike road from Aylesbury to Buckingham passes through the property, close to the town of Winslow, and it is within a very easy distance of the several markets of Buckingham, Bicester, Stony Stratford, &c. This description of grass land is unlikely to be affected by any change as to Corn-laws or Tariffs, and the property therefore presents, with its peculiar and great local ad vantages, an indisputably fine and choice property for the invest ment of money, with a most enjoyable domain for residence, being in a perfectly rural district, and in the centre of several packs of hounds. A station on the Buckinghamshire Railway will be very near. Descriptive particulars, with plans, will be published when the day of sale is fixed, and in the interim the property may be viewed by application to Mr. King, surveyor, Winslow, and every informa tion obtained of Messrs.

PonTsmourn, SllNDAY.—Extract of a private letter from one of the ships of the squadron, dated the 27th of June, in lat. 48 deg. 27 min. N., lon. 10 deg. 32 min W. " From the time of leaving Cork to the 19th of June the squadron have been exercising newly-raised men in reefing, furling, making and shortening sail, general quarters, firing at a target, &c. On the 20th a trial took place on a wind between Superb, Vanguard, and Raleigh, wind light, from two and a half to three knots, time six and a half hours. At the conclusion Raleigh beat Vanguard 4,200; Vanguard beat Superb 1,150 yards. " 22d.—Another trial between Canopus and Superb on a wind. The latter weathered her oponent 300 yards. " 23d.—Light airs, with a heavy swell. Trial between Canopus and Vanguard. During the trial the wind shifted six points, consequently it was declared no trial.' " 24th.—Fresh breeze ; single reefs and topgallant sails. Trial between Raleigh, Canopus, and Vanguard, three hours and a half; rate from seven to nine knots on a wind. Ra leigh carried away foretopsail-yard in stays, beat Vanguard 300 yards, and then gave up. Vanguard weathered Canopus 500 yards. " Since leaving Cork the crew's have turned out once for general quarters at 11 P.m., and fired three rounds of blank cartridge. The cruise, as yet, has been very quiet. We are expecting Sir William Parker daily, Trafalgar and Cyclops hourly, with letters and officers' hoped-for commissions. The Queen and Rodney do not do so well as in the last year's trials—they have wonderfully fallen off. Vanguard will beat all the liners on every point of sailing, although some of the newspapers have given Superb ' No. 1;' it is considered Superb and Vanguard's superiority is owing to the improve ment caused by additional ballast." The Scourge, steam bomb-vessel, Commander Caffin, and the Albion, steam transport, Master Commander J. Aylen, arrived at Cork on the Ist inst., the former from the Channel squadron, with letters and dispatches. The Admiralty has issued instructions under an order in Council for the revival of the School of Naval Architecture in this dockyard, in the following manner :—A selection is to initrelioni the apprentices in the dockyard school of two of the most advanced pupils in mathematics, classics, and general good conduct from this yard, who have served four years of their apprenticeship, two from Devonport school, and one from each of the schools in Chatham, Sheerness, Woolwich, and Pembroke yards. The same number are to be admitted annually, and not to exceed twenty-four; they are to be instructed in the higher branches of mathematics and practical shipbuilding, drawing, &c., by masters to be selected by the Admiralty; and the place of study to be appropriated for the purpose is the residence of Captain Denison, ft.E., who will vacate it in September next, when he will go out as Governor of Van Diemen's Land. This is the south wing of the present apprentices' school in this dockyard. On the apprentices completing their seven years' study with credit and professional ability, they are to be eligible to the offices of foremen, assistant master shipwrights, and master shipwrights, or the other appointments of the various trades in her Majesty's dock yards for which the examining officers may consider them qualified. This institution, if properly followed up, will insure a supply of scientific officers for all the royal dock yards, particularly in the shipbuilding department. The Seamen and Marines Orphan Schools, Portsea, which have for their sole objects the education, maintenance, and ultimate comfortable provision of the orphans of seamen and marines of the Royal Navy and the Hon. East India Company, are, we are happy to say, receiving that share of benevolent patronage and attention from the affluent and charitably-disposed which such an institution richly deserves. Under the distinguished presidency of Admiral Sir Charles Ogle, the Commander-in-Chief at this port, whose warm support the institution eminently enjoys, the funds of the charity are daily increasing. His Imperial Highness the Grand Duke Constantine of Russia transmitted yesterday, through 'Baron Brunnow, to Sir Charles Ogle, the handsome donation of 201. in aid of its funds, accom panied by his Highness's best wishes for the prosperity and extended usefulness of the charity. Six boys have been en tirely fitted out and sent to sea since March, and three girls have been placed in comfortable and suitable situations. The Pique, 36, Captain the Hon. Montagu Stopford, was paid off yesterday into ordinary. A rumour prevails that she is to be altered by having her bow lengthened, according to the plan of Mr. White, of Cowes. If so, some considerable time must elapse before she can be re-commissioned. As th• ship is apparently very sound, her spars only being defective, we doubt the truth of these reports. The Vixen steam-sloop, 6, Commander George Giffard, had her freight cleared out very expeditiously on Friday afternoon, and landed in lighters at Clarence-yard. She sailed the same evening for Woolwich, to be paid off The Fairy, steam-tender to the royal yacht, was un - masted on Friday evening, in obedience to some whim of the commander of the Victoria and Albert, who has, it appears, taken a fancy to try the Fairy under canvass, and imagines additional brass hoops are necessary to strengthen the masts, lest they should split when the sails are set. It is obvious to every sailor that this vessel can never de anything under sail, being so exceedingly narrow. One of the dockyard lumps, with the Drake sailing lighter and the buoy-boat, has been employed for some dap past in sweeping the middle part of the anchorage at Spithead for the purpose of discovering and removing some impediment which is stated to have entangled one of the anchors of the Scourge steam bomb-vessel when lying there. The search has hitherto been unsuccessful, although they have had, in addition to the sweeps, the assistance of a diver from the Excellent. Adllt ui loutaka lam Cues stance, 50, Captain Sir C. B. Walker, K.C.8., yesterday after noon to inspect her and muster her crew. The yards were manned on his arrival and departure, and a salute fired when he left. We understand he expressed his unqualified admira tion at all the arrangements of the frigate and the proficiency of her crow—a just tribute to the indefatigable exertions of her captain, Sir Baldwin Walker, and the first lieutenant, Mr. W. H. Kennedy. The North Star, 26, Captain Sir J. E. Home, Bart., sailed from Sydney, New South Wales, for the Cape f Good Hope and England, on the 24th of February. A contract was taken on the 25th ult. at the Royal Cla rence victualling establishment, Gosport, for 1,000 quarters of wheat, principally at 565. 6d. per quarter; a small quan tity realised 575., and some 575. 6d. The average was a shade higher than the previous contract. The Griffon, 3, brigantine, Lieutenant-Commander Wil mot, on her passage from Devonport to Rio, was spoken in June, in lat. 38 deg. 50 min. N., long. 14 deg. W., by the Ro"alist, arrived at Cork. the Cyclops steam frigate, Capt. Lapidge, is to relieve the Rattler screw sloop, Commander Smith, at Oporto, the Ratt ler to rejoin the Channel squadron, and the Cyclops to follow, when her services can be dispensed with. The Retribution steam frigate, Capt. Lushington, has re loined the Channel squadron. The Crocodile troop ship, Commander Lowe, and the Blenheim transport, have left Cork for Hudson's Bay, with Royal Artillery and a detachment of the Gth Regiment. The Admiralty have ordered that in future galvanised iron is to be used instead of copper, as heretofore, in the construc tion of coal bunkers for her Majesty's steam-ve.,..sels. EXAMPLES.

Beaufort ECHOES FROM THE BACKWOODS ; OR, SKETCHES OF TRANSATLANTIC LIFE. BY CAPTAIN LEVINGE.—This is one of the pleasantest books of travels we have road for many a day—full of curious facts, vivid Impressions, judicious re marks, and well-told stories; the style clear and animated; the tone, liberal, frank, and unreserved as if the writer felt that, with gentlemanlike habits and a cultivated taste, he might fearlessly tell all he thought on any subject. Captain Levinge (the son of a wealthy Baronet) sees everything that is to be seen, and shoots at, or angles for everything that is to be killed or caught (from a moose or salmon to a colonial beauty); in or about the Canadas ; races (to use his own ex pression) through the United States, rifle, rod, sketch-book, or note-book, in hand; tries most kinds of transatlantic life. including a fortnight in the bush; and seems to seize intui tively on the traits or incidents best fitted to throw light on manners or convey a lively impression of a scene.—Ezaminer INDELIBLE ORDERS.—The case of the Rev. Mr. Shore has brought up again the curious question of the indelibility of orders; but there seems some difficulty to know what or ders are indelible, and by what virtue they are so. Mr. Shore is " a priest in hol y orders " of the Ch urc h o f Eng land, and therefore by the canon law he is subject to the Bishop, and he cannot secede. Mr. Shore was the minister for some ten years of an unconsecrated and unen d owe d chapel, built by the D u k e of Somerset in the parish of Berry Pomeroy. The Duke was willing to endow the chapel, provided he retained the patronage. Two successive incumbents agreed to Mr. Shore's ministry, but a third refused to permit him unless the chapel were endowed and the patronage vested in the in cumbent. Hereupon the Duke turned the chapel into a Dissenting meeting-house, and licensed it under the Tolera tion Acts; and hereupon Mr. Shore took the oaths as a Di ssen ti ng minister. The Bishop prosecutes him in the Arches Court; and, because orders are indelible, he is pre vented from becoming a Dissenter. But now the question arises as to Mr. Newman, Mr. Ward, and all the other seceders to Rome ? Were not their orders indelible ? Could not they be prohibited by the Arches Court? We can fancy the enormous hubbub about "liberty of conscience," which the whole corps of Popery in the House of Lords, the House of Commons, at the press and elsewhere, as they swarm through the land, w ould raise, if the " seceders to Rome " were assailed in the Arches Court, and imprisoned for contempt because they exercised their liberty of going to Rome. — Statesman.

General Sir John Doveton, K.C.B. • George William Anderson, Esq. ; Major-General Delainate, C.B. ; Lieutenant-Colonel Montgomerie, C.B. ; John M. Macleod, Esq. His Highness received the de putation in tha most gracious manner, and was pleased to fix Friday, the 10th instant, for the entertainment. Lord Auckland in the chair. Shortly afterwards the Pacha left Mivart's Hotel, accom panied by Sami Pacha, Col. Bonfort, M. Nubar, and Major C. Dickson, for the Birmingham Railway station at Euston square, and from thence proceeded by railway to Wat ford to see the process of making paper. By an arrangement made prior to his leaving town, he visited the extensive paper-mills of Messrs. W. Lepard, Smith, and Co. It is well known that, although the Pacha has been brought up in the military profession, he has a great taste for manufactures, and never allows an opportunity to escape when a novelty either in art or manufacturing science presents itself. His Highness was most desirous to see the mode in which Our superior paper was made, paper of British manufacture being now generally used in Egypt. The Pacha was conducted over the mills by Mr. Smith. His Highness closely watched the various processes, and expressed himself highly pleased by the visit he had made. His Highness and suite returned to town by the railway, and en route to Mivart's the Pacha went to the gardens of the Zoological Society in the Regent's-park, where his High ness was occupied nearly two hours in viewing the collection of animals and birds belonging to the society. The Pacha and party returned to Mivart's shortly after six o'clock, and forthwith prepared to go to the entertain ment given by the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Naviga tion Company, at the Albion Hotel, Aldersgate-street. At the termination of the splendid dinner the Pacha and the whole of his suite repaired to Viscountess Palmerston's assembly. _ _ Yesterday afternoon the Pacha, accompanied by Sami Pacha, Colonel Bonfort, and M. Nubar, took a drive in Hyde-park and the Regent's-park, and then returned to dinner. At half-past eight in the evening the carriages were again ordered, and his Highness, similarly attended, went out for a carriage airing in the neighbourhood of the me tropolis. The Pacha has accepted an invitation to dine with Vis count and Viscountess Palmerston on the lath inst. On Wednesday next his Highness is to be antertabsed by the East India Company. THE WEST INDIA MAIL. SOUTHAMPTON, JULY s.—Late last evening the Tay, Captain Sharp, with the West India and Mexican mails, arrived in the docks, and landed her mails, which were for warded to London by the two ♦.M. train this day. Dates of the Tay :—Tampico, May 2; Vera Cruz, June 2 ; Havan nah, June 11; Honduras, May 20; Chagres, May 26; Ja maica, June 8; .Carthagena, May 29; Demerara, June 4; Trinidad, 6th; Barbadoes, Bth; Grenada, 10th ; St. Thomas, 16th ; La Guayra, 16th ; Bermuda, 20th. The Tay reports strong westerly winds since she left Ber muda, but otherwise very fine weather. Her Majesty's ship Daring was at Havannah on June 7th, and went out of harbour on the 10th. The Clyde arrived at the Havannah on the 6th June. The Tay has brought home a valuable cargo, consisting of 93 passengers, 1,940,000 dollars, 125/. British coin, I,BBooz. of gold dust, 5201 b&" of plating, PAlbs. of pearls, 1 package of emeralds value 20,000 dollars, 138 cases of vanilla, 32 bales of jalap, 100 bales of tobacco, 26 cases of cigars, 55 packages of pines, 13 cases of preserved turtle, 5 cases of tortoiseshell, and 80 packages of sundries. NEWS FROM MEXICO. From private sources we learn that the sy . stem of blockade is becoming general on the coast of Mexico; the ports of Tampico and Vera Cruz have been declared. Captain Saunders, of the American blockading ship off Tampico, has given notice to the Royal Mail steam-packets that permission would be given to land their mails and pas sengers, but that they would not be allowed to embark or disembark quicksilver, specie, or any kind of merchandise. In Vera Cruz the Royal Mail steam-packets will .be al lowed to land their mails, passengers, and take specie, but no other desCription of merchandise. Notice will be given on the arrival of the American commodore for further instruc tions. There is a strong report about a revolution in favour of Santa Anna. Upwards of 500 troops and as many of the inhabitants of the town of Vera Cruz were in the hospitals. The town is very sickly. The number of the troops in castle and town, under command of General Bravo, is said to be about 2,200. An American barque passed the American blockade, and -e - • ? -'< 7 e e , e _ e)' ran herself under the k fired upon, but being a Castle, where she received prott, to land her cargo until further instructions froi the city of Mexico.

THE CITY - OF ‘ LONDON : Shortly after one o'clockOn saturday, Mr.§.lieriff Attended by the two . Secondaries; Messrs. James - an - d Potter, proceeded to the husting in Quildhall, when itieChlefitiber 'of the Corpooration, Mr. Harker, made proelainitiottof the receipt, by the Sherifsotiondon, of her Majesty's writ,' cum.. manding them to proceed to,the election of a citizen to serve in the present Parliament in the room of Lord John Rifsgell, whose seat has necessarily been vacated by his acceptance of the office of First Lord of the Treasury. A second procla mation was made, declaring that the Sheriff would proceed to the election on Wednesday next, the .Bth instant, at eleven for twelve o'clock, in Guildhall. We perceive that a prelimi nary meeting of the electors, with a vie* to promote Lord John Russell's re-election, is announced to be held at the Hall of Commerce this day, and this movement is the solitary indication of the approach of the elation—opposition is not even thou ,ht of. ~-Cl_ ~~/ G . n f or t ; A t , was several • es s a quic • P ran er the led protection, butnct allowed TIVERTON. Jur.v 4—The writ for a new election, in consequence of Lord Palmerston having resumed his old post in the Cabinet, arriVed here at two o'clock this afternoon from the office of the under-sheriff, Winslow Jones. Esq., Exeter. Lord Palmerston's acceptance of office had been previously known, but notwithstanding this the arrival of the writ nude not the least sensation in the town, the Noble Lord being too popular to, allow the slightest doubt as to his re election. A report was spread at Exeter that " Squire Daniel" intended to try his fortunes in a contest. This gentleman is son of the far-famed Alderman Daniel, the great West India merchant of Bristol, who was the architect of his own fot tunes, and has reared a tolerably substantial edifice. Mr. Daniel possesses a large property at Stoodleigh, which he purchased from the late Mr. Fazakerler, a transfer which did not strengthen the Liberal interest in that district, but the Tiverton Reformers have nothing to fear from the Daniel interest. Lord Pal merston's colleague is John Heatcoat, Esq., ALP., the celebrated inventor of the lace machine. He has made a splendid fortune by the legitimate application of his great original talents, and he has taken care that all who are in his employ shall in some measure share in the success of the establishment. He has built and endowed schools for the children of his workpeople, as well as those of the towns people. They are superintended by able teachers, and sup plied with the best maps, models, &c. He has provided large cottage allotments for his workpeople, and voluntarily limited the working time to eleven hours per day. In re spect to the town itself his liberal hand is engaged in every good work, and at the present moment he is maintaining, at a heavy pecuniary cost, a Chancery suit against the trustees of Blundell's School, in order to compel them to administer the trust of the Tiverton Grammar School, in accordance with the will of the donor, and in obedience to the general requirements of the present day, as well as the earnest desire of the inhabitants. In all his works of usefulness, Mr. Heathcoat is most ably supported by his son-in-law and partner, A. Brewin, Esq. The effect of all thi s public spirit is to make the inhabitants stand by him as one man • and as Lord Palmerston has the warm support of Mr. Heathcoat's partizans and friends, his Lordship's return is certain. TAUNTON. • SATURDAY, JULY 4.—The acceptance of office by the re spected Member for this borough, the Right Honourable Henry Labouchere, was hailed here with a feeling of uni versal satisfaction, for although Taunton is purely an agri cultural town, yet the majority of its inhabitants have ever been Reformers, and the late measure for the repeal of the Corn-laws has met here here with general support. Indeed we know not how adequately to convey the very great change of feeling which has taken place here among the Conservative party since the election of 1841. Then, al though not the majority, they were a very powerful party, as was shown by their support of Mr. Wilberforce and Mr.- Hall, and they were also rigid protectionists—now they are not a less powerful party, but by far the greater number of thpm have abandoned protection, and are conscientious con verts to free-trade principles. The writ was received here this morning, and the Bailiffs have fixed Friday next for the election. WORCESTER. SATURDAY, JURY 4.—The writ for a fresh election for this city, in consequence of Sir Thomas Wilde being again ap pointed to the office of Attorney-General, was received by this morning's post, and the sheriff immediately made pro clamation of the same, and appointed Wednesday next for the election. An address to the electors from the Attorney- General has just appeared. The friends of the Learned Knight meet him on Monday morning to offer their aid in his re-election ; a tender of ser vices, however, scarcely needed, for not the slightest op position will be offered to the unanimous wish for his re election. NOTTINGHAM. SATURDAY EVENING.—This morning the writ arrived, and proclamation was made by the sheriff, Mr. Nathan Hurst, who has appointed Wednesday next, at ten o'clock in the forenoon, for the nomination to take place. At present all that is possibly known on the subject is, that Sir John Cam Hobhouse having accepted the office of President of the Board of Control, a vacancy has occurred in the representa tion, and Sir John is the only candidate in the field. At one o'clock to-day he issued his address. Many people talk of an opposition, but the leaders of the Tory party feel that as a body they are divided, and that free-trade principles must prevail. On Monday evening Sir John C. Hobhouse is expected to arrive in Nottingham, and in the mean time his committee will take the most active steps to secure his return. The great measures of the day have done much to allay party feeling, and to cause the electors to look upon the support of free trade as a para mount object. The protectionists here, as a body, know and feel their insignificance, and do not even talk of a show of opposition ; and the Conservative party, being split, can not call a man to their aid. - 11i= - Tr3 - 0 2V1L711‘131: Lord Morpeth's address to the electors of the West Riding (which will be found elsewhere) is as generous towards his political opponents as might be expected from his noble character. He does Sir Robert Peel full justice, and he also does justice to the Whip when he declares that they did not oppose Sir Robert through any eagerness for office. After reminding the electors how strictly he had fulfilled his own pledges given at the election in February, the Noble Lord acids— "An able and powerful Minister has fallen in the moment of his well-earned triumph. That fall has not been precipi tated by any eagerness on the part of my political associates to deprive him of the power he was thus beneficially using; we felt ourselves constrained to give our votes against on a question which we had no share in raising, whether it was expedient at the present time to introduce a measure of a severe and coercive character for the government of Ireland." Though no statement of Lord Morpeth's requires con firmation, yet we may say that we have the means of know ing this declaration to. be perfectly correct.. Neither Lord John Russell nor Lord .-Morpeth wished to unseat Sir Robert Peel, but the reverse. They were placed under that neces sity by Sir Robert's own act—Sir Robert himself seeing the inevitable result, and even designing it. Lord Morpeth noW comes before the West Riding with claims so strong on the favour and confidence of the electors, that we cannot anticipate opposition from any quarter. Opposition would certainly - be hopeless. The Whigs have a very large majority on the register, after the severest scrutiny; and they are in the most perfect state of prepara tion. All their little differences are healed, whilst all the differences amotig their political opponents are aggravated to the utmost. The noble candidate thus indicates the nature of the policy to be pursued by the new Cabinet " If I am enabled by' the generous renewal of your confi der.ce to combine the representation of your industrious classes with the actual service of the Crown, I shall hope to hear my part in a cout se of policy which shall have for its continued object to relieve trade, commerce, and industry of all unnecessary burthens, and to increase the command of the great bulk of the community over the necessaries and comforts of life, as well as to improve and elevate their so cial and moral condition, and to give new securities and en couragements to their freedom, intelligence, and virtue." We do not know how a better or fuller description could be given, in the same number of words, of the duties of a liberal and paternal Government. It is somewhat remarkable, but perfectly appropriate in this era of the triumphs of free trade, that the two great commercial constituencies of the empire, West Yorkshire and South Lancashire, should at the same time have free trade candidates walking over the course. The elevation of Lord Ft ancis Egertcn to the peerage snakes a vacancy in the representation of South Lancashire, for which Mr. William Brown, the former Liberal candidate, will be returned unop posed.—Leeds Mercury. FIRE AT BANSTEAD,—On Saturday morning, at an early hour, a mounted messenger arrived in London with intelligence of a tire at Copthall Farm, Banstead, the pro perty of Mr. Alicock, of Kingswood Warren, which termi nated in the destruction of considerable property. It was discovered by Joseph Bartlett, police-constable, on duty near the farm, who saw flames issuing from one of the sheds, and raised an alarm, the flames having already obtained the com plete mastery of the wood building where it originated. Three engines from the neighbouring villages were brought to the spot, but when they arrived the whole farm was on fire. Great exertions were used, but owing to the scarcity of water the various buildings, &c., were entirely consumed. Six sheds, two barns, one granary, a large stack of straw, and several stables were completely destroyed by the fire, which is supposed to have originated by one of the labourers lighting a fire in one of the sheds. DEATH OF ROBERT MA.IIGHA3I RICHARDS, ESQ.— We have to record the decease of one of the most respected, if indeed not one of the most eminent members of the English bar—Robert Maugham Richards, Esq., whose name must be familiar to many of our readers. He expired on Thursday last, at his residence in Whitehall-place, aged 53. The com plaint which proved fatal to the learned gentleman was an affection of the spine of long standing. Symptoms first manifested themselves about four years since, when Mr. Richards was in the height of practice, and such were the apprehensions entertained of the result, that he adopted the advice of his medical attendants, by retiring from the bar, resolving to spend the remainder of his days in comparative retirement, having previously, it is understood, amassed A handsome independence by his professional exertions during a period of nearly 24 years. For some time previous to the fatal attack he apparently enjoyed fair health, and although he abstained in a great degree, if not wholly from all profes sional duties, he nevertheless moved in another character— that of a philanthropist, and was an active supporter of many of our most beneficial charitable institutions. He was one of the coadjutors of his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge in the formation of the Governesses' Benevolent Institution, and took a deep interest in its proceedings up to the last few days of his earthly career. ACCIDENT ON THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—AR accident, which was fortunately unattended with any per sonal injuries, occurred at the Slough station, on the after noon of Saturday last, upon the arrival of the luggage train, with several third-class carriages, on its journey to Paddington. From some negligence on the part of the men: in charge of the train one of the large flaps of a luggage truck, in consequence of its not being properly secured, felt down, and in this state, projected some three or four feet, horizontally from the truck itself. The portion of the line of rails at Slough, along which the train was proceeding, ran within a few inches of a large luggage shed, recently constructed opposite the down station. The projecting flap, striking the side of the shed, tore away the whole of its upright supports, and that side of the shed was immediately in ruins. The train, fortunately, was not proceeding at the rate of more than five or six miles an hour ; the speed having been slackened for the purpose of its stopping about 200 yards farther on, at the up station. The greatest alarm WAS experienced by the passengers, not onlyfrom the jolting they experienced when the concussion caused by the collision took place, but from the awfully crashing noise occasioned by the falling materials of which the large building was composed. Providentially no persons were in the shed at the tim e e iro n us accident occurred, and no injuries were sustained of t _a:y amain. nature by those persons who were trave ll in g by A - M NE:A cOr oho 11, LOP tbe
