SECOND EDITION. 'g ti!flill , - LONDON, TUESDAY. AUGUST 18, 1846. Extraordinary measures are being taken by the present Government to alleviate the misfortun es , to co nciliate the population, and to meet the m an y im portant exigencies of Ireland. Never did the legis lators of Great Britain evince a greater readiness to ameliorate the sorrows of that afflicted hiand. What Sir ROBERT PEEL so earrestly recommended in his farewell address tl)rms the guiding principle of the succeeding Administration in reference to Irish legis lation—lreland is henceforth to be governed as an integral portion of the United Kingdom. The re membrance of the inquitous and coercive policy o f many centuries is to be obliterated by a policy of justice and leniency. Our readers have already observed that the Arms (Ireland) Bill—aßill which has continued in almost un interrupted operation during nearly two hundred years, ntmely, since the Revolution of 1688—has been sud denly withdrawn by Lord JOHN RUSSELL. Every one will have recognised in the abolition of that antiquated specimen of despotism, the dawning of fresh benefits across St. George's Channel ; and every one will, in like manner, have discerned in the candour and the courage with which the Prime Minister acknowledged the blunder of his Administration, in endeavouring to obtain tha temporary renewal of that Bill, something akin to the Ministerial magnanimity which has already been evoked by this ac4e of political liberality and of social re-organization. Lord JOHN RUSSELL declared it to be the determination of Government to annihilate this system of vagrant inquisition, because his col leagues coincided with him in regarding such mea sures " as useless and unnecessary, and an interrup tion to the peace." He confessed that they had arrived at that resolution from having carefully deliberated the operation of so obnoxious an enactment ; that they were impelled to make an im mediate announcement of that resolution from the circumstance of the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland having declared himself fully prepared to undertake the government of the sister country without such tyrannical and superfluous assistance; and that they were satisfied no pernicious consequences would result from such an abolition, especially as the recent returns have displayed a very consider able diminution of the dreaded offences. It is im possible not to rejoice in a determination so gene rously conceived and so valorously avowed. The Arms Bill may now be numbered among those blundering pieces of legislation which have retreated into oblivion proportionately with the advancement of civilisation. If remembered at all, it will only be remembered as another of the melancholy bygones of an ignorant and pusillanimous tyranny. Intimately associated with this most important withdrawal was the Ministerial announcement as to the distress at present existing in Ireland. On Satur day last we took occasion to particularise the various indications of deficiency in provisions, and upon the vegetable contagion which is now scorching up into a poisonous pulp the leguminous food of the po pulation. Extravagant and exaggerated as the de scription might have appeared, appalling as were the details, dismal as was the general picture, our state ments have been fully corroborated by the declara tions of Lord JOHN RUSSELL. The pestilential disease which last season infected the potatoes has re-ap peared at a much earlier period than on the for mer occasion, it has extended itself much wider over the crops, and has developed itself much more vio lently than heretofore. It withers the foliage into an unsightly and pestiferous rottenness —it cor rupts the very core of the tubers —it causes foul and intolerable exhalations to rise from the soil—it deprives thousands of their natural nourishment, and produces fever and cholera, as well as penury and famine. As to the authenticity of this account, the letter of Colonel JONES to Mr. Under-Secretary REDINGTON, must be regarded as a conclusive testimony. " The conclusion on my mind," says he, " is that the potato crop is unfit for human food to the extent of three fourths r In introducing this matter to the attention of Parliament, the Premier took occasion to enume rate the various extraordinary measures adopted by the late Government for the alleviation of the suffer ing consequent upon the previous emergency. We have, ourselves already catalogued those measures, and, consequently, any recapitulation is altogether superfluous. Excellent, however, as were the proceedings of the Peel Administration during that important juncture—the importation of Indian corn, the presentments for the purpose of public work.;, and the bounties on several imminent occa sions—Lord J. RUSSELL acknowledged himself un prepared to resort to any arrangements of the same de scription, considering them, as he did, only authorised by moments of extreme and alarming difficulty. The purchasing of provisions in foreign mar kets from the resources of the Treasury was, to his thinking, a precedent likely, if continued, to prove most pernicious to individual entcrprize, and calculated to disorganize the system of commerce generally. In like manner, he considered that espe cial grants for the prosecution of public works would have an effect detrimental to the national interest, be cause the labouring classes would abandon their private employers to seek occupation under the patronage of the Government officials. For these reasons, and from a moral conviction " that the prospects of the potato crop are even worse and more distress ing than they were last year," Lord Jour RUSSELL deemed it advisable to endeavour, by some rational and systematic arrangement, to overcome the difficulties which were promised for the ensuing winter. He proposed that public works should be undertaken, but that the expenses of those undertakings should be defrayed by loans, to be repaid by the barony or county wherever the baronies or counties were sufficiently affluent to meet such requisitions. He proposed, moreover, that in the case of such districts as were so destitute as tol preclude the possibility of such repayment, the charge of undertaking works for the employ ment of the poorer class, should be covered by a sum of 50,0001., proposed to be granted for that pur pose by especial Act of Parliament. There are sundry details in this proposition, such as the interest upon the moneys borrowed from the Treasury being simply 3i per cent., the summoning of a barony session and a county session, by command of the Lord-Lieutenant, the obligation of that sessioh to find adequate employment for the necessitous, and the levying for the purpose of repaying these advances being made according to the valuation or assessment of the county, so that the more indigent classes of occupiers might be relieved from assessment; but those measures, while they modify the application of the plan, are merely the filling up of the outlines. The proposition in short, nothing more nor less than a demand for a description of extraordinary poor-rate, and one which, considering all circumstances, is fully and especially justified. As a means of binding the whole complication of these arrangements together, a multitude of com missariat officers will be scattered throughout the island in direct and constant correspondence with Sir RANDOLPH ROUTH, the Chief of the Commissariat Department in Dublin. The Irish population will be grateful to Govern ment for so immediate and earnest a response to their supplications for assistance. And we are unhappily convinced that the scheme of Lord JOHN RUSSELL is in no respect premature, as it is not difficult to per ceive the shadows of famine and pestilence now im pending over Ireland. Previous to going into a Committee of Supply last night Lord G. BENTINCK called the attention of the House to the subject of the carrying trade between this country and the Spanish colonies. It is un doubtedly a question of grave importance to the ship ping interest; and, although we totally disapprove of the means suggested by the Noble Lord for accomplish lig the desired object, we must admit that if the sub jects with which he has recently so often taken up the attention of the Legislature, and the end and object of his speeches, were as valuable to the country as that last evening brought forward, his absence from his accustomed relaxation and amusement on the moors would not be so deeply to be regretted by the nation. A new broom, it is said, sweeps clean, and Lord GEORGE i 3 unwilling that anything should remain unenlightened by his wisdom. In his new capacity, as a statesman, he ex hibits the same activity and did a desire a sportsman.esireforfull occupation that he formerly Race meetings are neglected ; the moors are de serted, while Lord GEORG E rehearses a variety of figures, which being far beyond the comprehension of the greater number of the gentlemen who have selected him for their leader, are, of course, supposed by them to be something very profound indeed. They are quite willing to take " Onine ignoturn pro magnyico," and to suppose that the man who has so fully succeeded in puzzling themselves, must be quite competent to fill the post of Prime Minister, or Chancellor of the Exchequer at the very least. Lord GEORGE cannot, however, get rid of his affec tion for the old system, his horror of free trade; he can see no way of setting aside the restrictions affeciing our commerce w ith Spain, save by the adoption of similar measures on our own part ; he cannot conceive that a juster and a wiser mode of proceeding on our part will probably be met in a similar spirit by Spain. He cannot see that hitherto sugar, the principal staple production of the Spanish colonies, has been practically excluded from the English market by the high differential duties. Our own policy towards Spain has been one of restriction ; and it is little to be wondered at if a corresponding sys te ru has grown up in her colonies. Now, however, happily a dif ferent course has been adopted. The Sugar Duties Bill last night received its third reading in the House of Lords, and, on receiving the royal assent will, in a few days, become the law of the land. Much benefit must result therefrom to Spain ; and there is every reason to suppose that we shall, in return, receive some concession for the advantages thus afforded. The moment we take the produce of these colonies in exchange for our manufactures, every encouragement will be given to induce British vessels to come fur that produce. This was the real rea son why the American vessels were freed from the disadvantages, the higher rates of duties, to which the British were still subjected. Every American vessel taking a cargo into the Havannah received in return a cargo of sugar, and thus there was a mutual advantage obtained from the traffic by both Spaniards and Americans. This, however, was not the case with England. We wished to have a market for our own goods, but were not satisfied to yield reciprocal be nefits. Now the conciliatory policy has been adopted, and we doubt not that ere long the effect will be apparent to all. A system of retaliation is vicious in principle, and productive of the worst re sults. It is calculated to impede and injure com merce. Perfect and entire freedom of trade is what is wanted by our; mercantile men, and that is incom patible with measures of restriction cr retaliation. It is not because one nation adopts foolish or inconsi derate rules that we are to do so likewise. The error of our brother is no reason why we ourselves should fall into a similar one. England has lately decided, by an overwhelming and triumphant majority both of the Legislature and the • people at large, that duties are no longer to be levied for purposes of protection, or of fostering and sustaining monopoly, but merely for the sake of revenue. We must not run counter to that wise policy ; we must not do evil that good may follow Retaliation, as stated by Lord PALMERETO74.I, may pos sibly prove successful, but, at the best, it is a bad method of curing the evil, and it is far, very far, from being a certain one. Should the other country, in place of at once yielding, adopt an attitude of defiance or obstinacy, the consequences may be very injurious to ourselves. That which took place with respect to Naples some time time since affords a valuable lesson to statesmen of the impolicy of such a course. When we resorted to retaliation by imposing a high duty on her oil, be cause she did not do as we expected, it had no effect, hut, on the contrary, it subjected our manufactures to such inconvenience that we were obliged to retrace our steps, and to abstain from collecting that duty— not a very dignified course for the British Govern ment, it must be admitted. We are, therefore, sin cerely gratified at the statement made by the Foreign Secretary, " that the Government were not prepared to resort to the retaliatory policy in regard to foreign commerce, but that, at the same time, they would do their best to place the commercial relations of the two countries on the most satisfactory footing." Letters from Rome of the Bth state that the Port grants audiences once a week in the Quirinal Gardens to persons of every class of society. Cardinal MAT TEI, the late Under- Secretary of State, has been in triguing against the system of reform adopted by his POPE. On Cardinal Gizzi taking possession of his office he found replies from several provincial autho rities to official letters by Cardinal ALITTEI, in which, after deploring the amnesty, he recommended them to put an end to the public rejoicings. Had such an official intrigue been discovered against the Government of the "good old times," the intriguing cardinal would most infallibly have been sent to the Castle of St. Angelo. Thanks, however, to that spirit of liberality, the existence of which Cardinal MATTE' so much laments, the intriguer has in the present in stance been permitted to escape without punishment. According to the Gazette of Aix la Chappelle, the Grand Duke of OLDENBURGII, as well as the Princes of GLUCKSBURG and AUGUSTENBURG, have pro tested against the letters patent of the King of DEN MARK, regulating the succession to the Duchies of Schleswig and Holstein. On the subject of the Duchies, we find the following in the Swabian Mer cury, dated Carlsrhue, Aug. 11 : " In the sitting of the Chamber of the States, to-day, Deputy Kecker demanded whether any steps lad been taken by the Germanic Diet, in consequence of the letters patent of the King relative to the succession to the Duchies, and whether a handful of Danes will dare to defy Ger many. He designated the letters patent as a coup d'etat against the rights of the Duchies, and as tending to compro mise their existence. lie then moved an address, praying the Government to act energetically with the Diet, that the integritf.of the Duchies should be maintained. M. D'ltzstein declared that Germany should interfere, and not allow itself to be partitioned like Poland. Mr. Baarden said that France had declared in favour of Denmark, and Russia against her, but not in the interest of Germany. England had made no declaration, but Prussia, Hanover, Saxony, Wirtemburg, and Bavaria, had declared against the letters patent. "The proposition of Deputy Kecker was unanimously adopted." The following convention, concluded on the 6th of July, between Denmark and Prussia has been ratified by the respective Governments:— "Art. 1. The stipulations of the treaty of commerce be tween the two contracting parties, concluded in June, 1818, shall remain in full vigour until July 1,1857, with the modi fications hereinafter contained. " Art. 2. The stipulation of the 3d article of the said treaty of commerce shall not apply to traffic on the coast, the con tracting parties reserving to themselves the right to regulate such transactions by special clauses. " Art. 3. In the trans-Atlantic colonies .of Denmark Prussian vessels and cargoes shall be admitted on the conditions enjoyed by the most favoured nations. The same conditions shall apply to the islands of Ferroe, Iceland, and Greenland, within the limits prescribed to other nations. "Art. 4. It is agreed that during the continuance of the present convention of the Sound and Belt dues, published on Jan. 1, 1842, accompanied by the regulatory clauses, shall be applied to Prussian vessels and to their cargoes, in such a manner that the trade and navigation of Prussian s u bj ec t s , as far as concerns those dues, shall be treated according to the terms of the said tariff. Prussian subjects are to be always treated as those of the most favoured nations, and it is agreed that any reduction of the above-quoted tariff which may be hereafter made to any nation, shall also be made in favour of Prussian subjects. "Art. 5. In the navigation of the canal of Schleswig Holstein, and by the Eider, Prussian ships and cargoes shall be placed on the footing of the most favoured nations. "Art. 6. The Danish Government engages to facilitate as promptly as possible the clearing of Prussian vessels in the Sound and the Belts, and to prevent any unnecessary delay, without, however, departing from the usual plan of clearing the vessel in the rotation of their arrival. " Art. 7. The regulations of the navigation of the Elte shall continue as set down by the conventions of June 23, 1821, and April 13, 1844. "Art. 8 confirms the provisions of the former treaty with regard to vessels entering ports by stress of weather or other causes, and not landing their cargoes. " Art. 9 relates to the identification of the nationality of the vessels of the respective states of Denmark and Prussia. " Art. 10. Prussian vessels entering the Sound or the Belts for the Baltic, and which are bound to a Prussian port, with out entering into a Danish port, may pass without being subjected to any quarantine. " Art. 11. The present convention shall remain in force and vigour until July I, 1851, unless a notice of six months be icen by one of the contracting parties." Madrid papers of the 11th have arrived. The Espanol gives currency to a rumour that Mr. BULWER, the English Minister, had read to M. ISTURITZ, the Spanish Prime Minister, a note from Lord PALMERSTON, declaring that England would not support any other candidate for the QUEEN'S hand than Don ENRIQUE. The Heraldo, however, denies the truth of the statement made by the Espanol. Don FRANCISCO D'Assis was expected at Madrid on the 12th. It is reported that the differences between Spain and Portugal have been arranged. Portugal has undertaken to remove the Spanish refugees to depots in the interior of the country, and Spain has with drawn her troops from the frontier. COSTA CABRAL had a private audience of the QUEEN on the 10th.

DEATH OF SIGNOR GABUSSI, THE COMPOSER,-. This clever musician expired on Saturday morning, after a short illness of thirty-four hours, having long laboured under a diseased liver.

PARIS, MoNDAY, Aua. 17. At one o'clock the Icing opened the session of the Chambers by the following speech:— " Gentlemen, Peers, and Deputies, " I experience a lively satisfaction at seeing you assem bling around me with so much eagerness. At . the usual period of your labour I shall communicate with you respecting the internal and external affairs of the State. 1 At present, in convoking immediately the two Chambers, in compliance with that charter, in summoning the Peers appointed since last session, and the Deputies, whom France has just honoured with her suffrages, to take the oath before me, I am anxious that you should receive at the same time the assurance of my active and unchangeable devotedness to our country, and of my confidence in your sentiments towards me and my family. " I learned from my earliest youth to love and serve France. Called to the Throne by her wish, for the sal vatien of her liberty, I devoted my existence to the regular maintenance of her institutions, and to the peaceable development of her prosperity and grandeur. There is no trial that I am not prepared to submit to, and that I shall not endure, in order to attain an object so dear to my heart. Providence, I hope, will permit me, with the co-operation of the Chambers, and the national ascent, to insure the success .of that patriotic labour. " My children and yours will reap its fruit, and, if France, free and happy, retain an affectionate recollec tion of our common efforts, it shall be, Gentlemen, our brightest and noblest reward." CRIMINAL COURT.-.(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT: The Court was occupisd throughout the morning with cases of uttering counterfeit money, but none of them pos sessed any interest whatever. NE TV COURT. Thomas Lirermore was indicted for embezzling two trifling sums of money from his master, Mr. W. Lamprell. Mr. DOANE. who appeared for the prosecution, stated the case, from which it appeared that the prosecutor was a licensed victualler, and that the prisoner was in his employ, his duty being to carry beer to his customers, and to make up his accounts daily. The latter he omitted to do in July last, and gave no account of the money he had received from one of the customers, with the embezzlement of which he was now charged. The payment of the money to the prisoner having been proved, and the witnesses cross-examined by Mr. Ballantine, who appeared on the part of the prisoner, The COMMON SERGEANT summed up, and The jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. UTTERING A FORGED ORDER.—Janzes Russell, a lad, ap parently about 15 years of age, was indicted for uttering a forged order on the 23d of July last, with a view to obtain goods fraudulently. Mr. CLARKSON, who appeared on the part of the prosecu tion, stated the case. The afence with which the prisoner stood indicted was very common, and one from which re spectable persons in business had suffered very severely. The prosecutors, Messrs. Ellis and Co., who carried on a respect. able business, had amongst their customers a gentleman named Owen, who was also in business in Great Coram street. On the day in question the prisoner came to the shop of Messrs. Ellis and Co. and presented an order, which purported to be from Mr. Owen, and which was as follows : " Gentlemen—You will oblige me by sending by the bearer a piece of satin of each of the enclosed patterns, each piece not to exceed in price 4s. " D. W. OW EN." These facts having been proved, the prisoner, who was called on for his defence, said that he had been the dupe cf another person, with whom previously be had had some acquaintance, and who' met him on the day in question, and represented himself to be in the employ of Mr. Owen. This person gavo him the order, which he told him he had just received, and desired him, as soon be had obtained the goods, to meet him at a place which he speci• fled. He was quite innocent of any intention to commit the crime with which he was charged. The CosniloN SERGEANT summed up. He said the points which the jury had to try were, whether the prisoner had presented the order in question, whether that order was forged, and whether the prisoner at the bar was cognizant of the latter fact. The two first had been clearly established ; and he thought that there was little credit to be attached to the statement of the prisoner. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty ; and, it appearing that the prisoner was well known at the Court, he was sen tenced to be transported for seven years. BOW-STREE T.-(THIS DAY.) Mr. Robert Oliphant, the son of 111 r. James Oliphant, army accountant, was charged with an assault upon Mr. Dimand, partner to Mr. Eisenberg, the " chiropodist. Mr. Dimand, who is a foreigner, and spoke with great difficulty, stated that the assault arose out of a dispute in respect of some money borrowed by the defendant in the name of his father, for payment of which he applied to the father yesterday. Mr. Oliphant sent a message to him, desiring him to go to his (Mr. Oliphant's) office, and to wait there for him. This he refused to do; but Mr. Eisenberg, who was with him at the time, went to the office. Mr. Oliphant again sent a message to him to go to the office, and he did so. On his entering the office he found Mr. Eisenberg there, with the defendant and his brother, Mr. henry Oliphant, who both " began to abuse him," and called him a " scan*," "rascal," " vagabond," &c. He turned to Mr. Eisenberg and said, " Let us leave these blackguards, and go away ;" upon which the defendant rushed upon him and struck him a violent blow on the mouth, which hurt him very severely, and drew blood. A police man was then sent for, and took the prisoner in custody, while witness left the office and went to the nearest surgeon's. —(The witness's mouth was very much swelled.) Mr. Eisenberg said that, on his entering the office, he found the defendant and his brother there. The latter asked him how Mr. Dimand dared to go and talk to his father about the money he had lent his brother ? And the de fendant said—" If he comes down here we will knock him down ; and it I do it I'll dash his brains out ; he shall not walk out again ; he shall be carried out." Mr. Henry Oliphant either said the same thing, or " assisted the de fendant to say it," but witness was not quite sure. When Mr. Dimand was heard coming down stairs to the office the defendant and his brother both said " Here he is ; we'll do for him :" and on his entering the office the defendant com mitted the assault described by Mr. Dimand. The defendant admitted that he struck the complainant, but denied that the circumstances were as they had been described by him and Mr. Eisenberg. He said that when Mr. Eisenberg entered the office he (defendant) complained of the conduct of Mr. Dimand in going to tell his father about a debt which he had contracted, and said, " The dirty little devil deserves to be kicked out of the office." Mr. Di mand, on coming into the office, called his brother (Mr. H. Oliphant) " a blackguard," of which he took no notice, but defendant said, " I would not let him call me a black guard, I would knock him down if be did so." The com plainant then turned to him and called Lim a blackguard, upon which he •struck him in the face. He did not use any of the language described, and neither he nor his brother threatened to knock the complainant down, or knock his brains out, or " do for him." The defendant called, as witnesses, his brother, Mr. Henry Oliphant, and a clerk in the office, who fully confirmed the above statement. Mr. JARDINE said that he thought the provocation proved to have been given, though it would not justify, would yet palliate the assault. It would have been better if the de fendant had acted in the same manner as his brother had, and taken no notice of the complainant's abuse ; or if ha had turned him out of the office; which he might have done without striking him. However, he would not go to the full extent of the law, but would fine the prisoner 405., or, in default, sentence him to one month's imprisonment. A charge of obtaining 61. under false pretences was after wards preferred by the complainant's solicitor against de fendant, but Mr. JARDINE refused to entertain it, saying he thought there was no foundation in it. THE LATE MURDER AT THE GUILDHALL COFFEE-HOUSE. MANSION•HOUSE.-(THIS DAY.) John Vincent Smith, late cook at the Guildhall Coffee house, was this morning brought up before the Lord Mayor for re-examination, charged with the murder of Susan Tolloday, his fellow-servant. The Court was crowded, and hundreds of persons who could not obtain admittance were constrained (however impatiently) to remain outside, in the expectation of seeing the unfortunate criminal as he would arrive at the Mansion-house. . _ The Lord Mayor took his seat at ten minutes before one o'clock. The prisoner was immediately after placed at the bar. He looked thirty or thirty-five years of age, and seemed fully sensible of the awful position in which he stood. The girl, Fanny Wetenhall, was first examined by Mr. Goodman, chief clerk—She resided in Halfmoon-alley, and bad been employed in the Guildhall Coffee-house for the last eight weeks. She knew the prisoner at the bar, who had been cook, and also the deceased, Susan, who acted as kitchen maid She heard some quarrelling between prisoner and deceased on Friday last. She did not know what it was about, but it continued almost all day. She saw no blows given. Witness got there on Saturday at nine o'clock in the morning, and after that time was principally employed in the kitchen, up to twelve o'clock. The prisoner and deceased were quarrelling on that morning, but she did not know what it was about. She thought they were quarrelling about Mrs. Riley, the charwoman. Mrs. Riley w as t here. Ile said that Mrs. Riley had got some things that she ha d never paid for. Susan took Mrs. Riley's part. Sh e said " th e cook was not acting like a man for grumbling at the poor wo man. " She could not tell what hour it was, but it might be half an hour before " this affair took place." Mrs. Riley was sent away, and atter she had gone, witness heard no more quarrelling between the prisoner and deceased. Susan was then sitting down, cutting beans. She had been doing so about half an hour. She was then sittin g a t the corner kitche of kitchen t table. hetab Prisoner . I i so nf e r wwaasspipeilcdknig them with a knif e inng ducks at the oth er his hand. lie was using the knife to 'pick the feathers off. They were thus engaged when she (witness) was sent out of the kitchen. She was sent by the cook, about half-pist twelve, to the bar to Miss Green, to get some lard and eggs, but she said that he was to come himself, as she was busy. Witness th en wen t b ac k an d d e livered the rr.essage to cook. The prison er an d S usan were i n the same place that she had FA them in. The pri s oner had by that time t r ducks, and they w ere l y i ng on t h e table. The table was six or seven feet long. Th ey were not qu ite the len gth of the table separated from. each other. She did not hear any conversation between them. The Prisoner then gave witness a bacon. He brought it from near the larder, and said she was to get some milk and eggs. She was not sure that he had the knife in his hand, at that time. Witness went back again to the bar and saw Miss Green again. Miss Gren gave her the milk and egs. The kitchen cannot Le all seen from the bar, and it g is distant about ten or twelve feet from the bar. She had been absent about five minutes while she fetched the milk. On returning, she met the deceased coming to wards the bar, on the stairs. She baw her throat was cut, and she fell at the foot of the stairs. Miss Green began to "holloa" and cry out. She heard Susan say nothing. She had a small white-handled knife (the one she was cutting the beans with) in her hand. She (witness) did not see the prisoner at the time that Susan fell, nor till she saw the policeman take him away afterwards. While she stood at the bar she heard no noise as of quarrelling in the kitchen. Witness afterwards went home. In answer to questions from Mr. Goodman, the witness added that deceased said, when she and the cook were quar relling about Mrs. Riley, that 4 , be was not acting like a man, and he would remember it before many months were over his head." The prisoner said "she might before many hours went over her head " Witness recollected nothing else. The LonD MAYOR asked if the prisoner had any question to ask the witness? Prisoner—l could not understood a word that was said. Will you have the goodness to read it to me. _ _ _ --- Mr. Goodman then read the evidence as given by the girl Wetenhall. _ _ . The prisoner, in answer to the question whether he had anything to ask the witness, said he would reserve his defence. _ . John Tolloday, twenty-one years of age, lived at Castle lane, Cambridge, and was a whitesmith. The deceased was his sister, and her name was Susan Tolloday. She was cousin to the prisoner's wife. Witness ban never seen prisoner and his sister together. The prisoner had uo question to ask. The LORD MAYOR asked if the prisoner had anything to say why he should not be committed for trial? The pri soner had nothing to say. The witnesses were then bound over to appear against the prisoner at the present sessions (now sitting). MPERIAL PARLIAMENT. (THIS DAY.) HOUSE OF COMMONS.

RAILWAY BOARD. Mr. MORRISON moved the confirmation of the resolu tions of the Select Committee on Railways, of which he was chairman, with the view to the establishment of a railway board for directing the process of amalgamation, and for the general government of railway companies, and for empowering the board to test locally the correctness of the plans and sec tions deposited with the members of the board. Mr. HUME said that having been on this Committee, he was confident that any one who had considered the state of private business for the last two years, and who observed 'hat this Committee and the Committee of the House of Lords were unanimous, would think the resolutions ought to be con firmed. He would therefore second the motion. . . Sir G. GREY having been also on the Committee, con ceived that it would be advisable for him to express his opinion respecting the resolutions. To the first of those resolutions he had no objection. It directed the process of amal i r,amation. The second was contained in the ninth, and if the House were to take those two as one, and embodied the general recommen dation of the Committee for a railway board, he thought it would be better than to go into details, and fetter the House at this time with resolutions which it might prove very inconvenient to carry into effect. 'I he better plan would be to accept the several recommendations of the Com mittee, and carry out the whole design when it could be presented in the more perfect shape of a Bill. Lord G. SOMERSET approved of the establishment of this board, but conceived that the matter was yet premature. This board ought plainly to comprise members of both Houses of Parliament, and, in his opinion, it ought to consist, at least partly, of members of the Government at the time in being. After a few words from Mr. W ARBURTON. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the Government had plainly received recommendations from both Houses, and from both sides of this House, to establish the board ; but it did appear to them that to attempt to do mere than establish the department at this period of the session would be futile. He would, therefore, propose to bring in a very short Bill, for the purpose which he had intimated, giving the board thus constituted some of the powers of the Board of Trade, beside others of a similar kind, to enable them to fulfil their duty. The Vice. President of the board of Trade was prepared with such a Bill, but having been exceedingly ill it happened that it was not laid on the table. The matter then would be in progress, and the business might be well con sidered during the recess, and a Bill be brought in in the early part of next session for the complete organisation of the board and the arrangement of its duties. He proposed, therefore, to accept the first and second, and perhaps the ninth resolution, and on them to found such a Bill. Mr. BERNAL believed some such board to be absolutely necessary, for without it the private business of the country could not go on. But while making such a sweeping change in the constitution, due deliberation ought to be observed in the establishment of this board, especially when they recollected that railways had now been constructed in the most remote parts of the country. Air. GREENE took the same view of the case. Mr. P. M. STEWART conceived that the better plan would be to strike off all the resolutions but the first, so as to get th..! department recognised, and then the House would be able to constitute such a board as would obtain the confidence of the country and be as perfect a's such a thing could be in all its details. Mr. ESTCOURT did not think that the resolutions pro posed would at all compass the important subject to which they related, and their adoption would lead to a great deal of unne cessary trouble hereafter. If any portion of these resolutions was to be adopted, he thought that the first resolution would of itself answer all purposes, and the rest could easily be dispensed with. He did not, however, think it at all wise to introduce the subject at this late period of the session, when any legislation upon it must necessarily be of a hurried character, and the safer plan would be to withdraw all the resolutions untii next session. Mr. MORRISON said that, after the expression of opinion which had ben given by the House, he would be perlectly content if the House were to adopt the first resolution. Lord LINCOLN so far differed from many Hon. Members, that his opinion was against the pa.sing of the first resolution ; for if the Government intended to introduce a Bill constituting a railway board, the resolution would be quite superfluous. If there were no part of the Government at present existing which could make those preliminary inquiries necessary, he would at once accede to the motion, but as such a portion of the Government did exist, he should oppose it. After a few words in explanation from the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, the first resolution was agreed to. THE CHIEF JUSTICESHIP OF BOMBAY. Lord GEORGE BEN TIN CK rose, pursuant to the notice which he had given, to ask the President of the Board of Con trol, for some information respecting the Chief Justiceship of Bombay. Yesterday it was his duty to bring before the House a case with respect to the appointment of the magistracy which be thought must have struck the House very deeply, with the manner in which these duties were performed by her Majesty's late Ministers. It was his dsity that day to bring before the attention of the House, and the attention of the country, a job which had been committed with respect to the anointment of the Chief Justice of Bombay. There were at that moment two Chief Justices of Bomb3y.— ( A laugh.) It would be in the recollection of the House, that the division on the Coercion Bill, which put her Majesty's late Ministers in a minority, occurred on the 26th of June. On the 29th of June following the announeement was made to that House and to the country that her Majesty's Ministers had resigned the reins of Government. On the 30th of June, Mr. David Pollock, a Commissioner for the relief of insolvent debtors in London, was appointed Chief Justice of Bombay ; and, as be believed (and on that point he asked for information of his Hon. Friend the President of the Board of S.;ontrol ), at that time Sir Henry Roper, the then Chief Justice of B mbay, bad not tendered his resignation to Government. He was well aware that it was in the power of the Government to supersede a chief justice in the celenies, but he submitted that if it were within the power of the Government, it was con trary to the spirit of the constitution, that, for the sake of patronage, the Goverr.ment should supersede those who held office as judge in any part of the Queen's dominions. He be lieved that Sir Henry Roper was in the seventh year of the performance of his duties as Chief Justice of Bombay. Five years' service would give to him a retiring pension of 7001. per year, and seven years' service would have entitled him to a retiring pension of 1,0001. per year. The period of service which would have entitled him to the full retiring pension, of 1,0001. per year would have expired on the 2d of November next, yet her Majesty's late President of the Board of Control had, as he would show to the House, perpetrated a job, as he had thought proper to supersede Sir H. Roper by appointing Mr. David Pollock, when there were yet four months to run before Sir Henry Roper would be entitled to his full retiring pension. But this was not all. There was another and more serious view of the case, and it was this—that by the law of the land, as soon as Mr. David Pollock was appointed Chief Justice, be became legally Chief Justice of Bombay ; then all authority by which Sir Henry Roper could try immeiately ceased.. The result of this was, that every trial which should be held by Sir Henry Roper, between the time of the appointment of Sir Henry Pollock and the arrival of the news of his appointment at the East Indies, would be an illegal trial, and every criminal who should be convicted — that was, capitally convicted—would stand before the laws of the country as a murdered man, and that was one of the ways in which her Majesty's late Ministers performed the ministerial duties of their places. At that very moment (he did not know whether the Bill was actually in the House, but if it were not he believed that it would be laid on the table that night) it bad been necessary to introduce into the other House of Parliament a Bill, which, under the title of the East India Patronage Bill, was in point of fact a Bill for concealing this nefarious job, and at the same time to grant an indemnity to the perpetrators of it. The object of the appointment of Mr. David Pollock was to make a vacancy - in the Commissionership of Bankruptcy, with which to reward the private secretary of Lord Lyndhurst, and the mode of proceeding was this :—Sir Henry Roper was to be superseded by the appointment of Mr. D. Pollock, which would leave the office of Chief Commissioner in Louden kr the relief of insolvent debtors vacant. Mr. David Pollock was then in his turn to be succeeded in office by Mr. Phillips, a commissioner of the Court of Bankruptcy at Liverpcol, and thus to make a vacancy there, to which Mr. Perry, the private secretary of the Lord Chancellor, had been since ap pointed. He (Lord George Bentiuck) had nothing to say against the character of Mr. David Pol. lock; he did not wish to say or to insinuate that he was unfit fur the discharge of the high duties to which he had keen appointed. He believed that his legal attainments were great, and though he m i g ht b e something out of pra c ti ce as regarded the courts of that portion of the law which he was to administer, from having been now occupied for some time as an Insolvent Debtor ' Commissioner, he (Lord George Bentinek ) did not mean to say that he was not fit to hold the office of Chief Justice of Bombay—though his age, being 65, was rather greater than that of those who were sent out to the East Indies to fulfil the situation of Chief Justice had generally attained. Well, then, with respect to Mr. Phillips, he had nothing to say against his character or against his legal attainments. He believed that a more capable • man for executing the office of Chief Commissioner for the relief of insolvent debtors did not exist.--(Hear, hear.) So far as he was concerned it could not be imputed to him that he Ind taken any part in this job. The office which be had vacated entitled him to a salary of 1,8001. per annum, and the office to which he succeeded entitled him only to a salary of 1,5001. per year. Private reasons, and a feeling to which he would not advert—founded upon a domestic calamity which he had met with—had made it desirable tohim personally to leave Liverpool, the place where he met with this ealamity. If it should be that Mr. Phillips was indebted for his promotion to that office, not to the fulfilment of the wishes of the ex-Lord Chan cellor, but to the patronage and friendship of another, who lie (Lord George I3entinck) might say, supplied the office of honorary Lord Chancellor during the existence of the late Government—performing the legislative duties in the other House of Parliament which were abandoned by others —taking the part of defending her Majesty's Ministers against those attacks which were constantly made on them in that House, though not in this House, and upon their honour and consistency in a late proceeding—that was no disparagement to Mr. Phillips, and he (Lord George Bentinck) rejoiced that Mr. Phillips, through the interference of Lord Brougham should have obtained the appointment, if it were through his interference that he did obtain that situation. He could not say that he had no charge to make against Lord Brougham as to the reward of his fidelity and zeal in the defence •f her Majesty's late Prime Minister, or that which was intended to have soothed and g ratified his feelings. When he came to another part of th ease, and looked at the appointment of Mr. Perry he was bound to say that he thought it was a very great job; Mr. Perry, as he believed, had had no practice for some years in the courts of law, and, as he was informed, he was accom panied to Liverpool by Mr. Commissioner Conroy in order to dry nurse him in the new duties he had to perform. He 'had treated of this matter as though it was an appointment made by the Lord Chancellor, Lord Lyndhurst, but, as he was well aware the appointment did not rest in the gilt of the Lord Chancellor, but it rested in the gift of the' President of the Board of Control. He believed that the appointment was actually enforced upon Mr. Perry, unsought and unasked for by him; in fact, it was actually pressed upon him by the late President of the Board of Control. He cared not whether the appointment was to be attributed to Lord Lyndhurst or the Earl of Ripon, it was a job, and one of the most nefarious jobs ever perpetrated. It would be for the Gentlemen opposite to show some justification of it, and to show some precedent of a similar kind. It came with peculiar bad grace from the present Government, and from Lord Lyndhurst, who had exhibited such feelings in 1841 with reference to a Charitable t Trusts Bill. A more profli gate avidity for patronage bad never been displayed by any Government, and it contrasted very strikingly with the indifference manifested with regard to the Lord-Lieutenaney of Norfolkshire, lately vacant. There was a man, however, who was entitled to the latter dignity, but be was guilty of what the late Prime Minister could not overlook—he was guilty of the crime of consistency with his former political opinions and fidelity to his former principles. The appointment was, therefore, left vacant for 30 days until the present Government came into power. ( LEFT SPEAKING.) RAILWAY COMMITTEES. (THIS DAY.) HOUSE OF LORDS. Room A. BIANCTIESTEn AND SOUTILaiViPTON, The Committee met this morning at eleven o'clock, Lord Monteagle in the chair. The first witness called was Mr. Harris, an extensive class manufacturer at Islington, in the vicinity of Birmingham, who testified to the great difficulty he and others carrying on a shrilar avocation experienced from the defective com munication for sand, a fit e description, of which was obtained from the Isle of Wight. He had 500 tons himself in the course of a year, but he possessed the largest glass works in that district. The present conveyance from the Isle of Wight to Gloucester, by ship, and from thence by canal, was most uncertain. During the last year he had it sent by the Southampton Railway, and then by the London and Bir mingham, in order to prevent the stoppage of his works, but the expense was twice that by the ordinary route. The pro posed line would be used by him and others. Mr. Etwall, M.P. for Andover, considered that the line would be most advantageous to the whole of the agricultural district which it was proposed to traverse. The want of such a line had been felt for many years, and the feeling in 'favour of it throughout the whole district exceeded in unanimity the feeling with respect to any other undertak ing. Had used salt as a manure, and it would be more extensively used if the carriage were cheaper, as also would other artificial manures. He became one of the provisional committee, and a member of the local committee for allot ting shares, simply in consequence of the great advantage which he considered the district would derive from the line. By the ComairrrEF--The shares in that district were al lotted to the owners of land, and persons of the highest re spectability and opulence. This remark applied to a circuit of twenty-four miles round Andover. By Mr. TALBOT—There are no considerable towns in the district but will have railway communication to London by existing or authorised lines, but not to the north or south. He did not know of an extension from Reading to Hunger ford, in connexion with the Berks and Hants, nor that a line had been projected to Worthing. There were a number of fairs held in the district, a great number of store sheep came to them. Did not hear at the affirmation meeting that the company would not call up more than 21. per share, up to 1848. Mr. Rawlinson, farming 2,000 acres of land at Hole, be tween Andover and Salisbury, and rearing from 3,000 to 4,000, sheep in the course of a year, detailed the quantity of oats and barley raised in the course of a year in Hampshire, Wilts, and Dcrsetshire , the number of fairs, and the numbers who attended them. Also the number of cattle and sheep, and gave evidence generally in favour of the line. He sent malt to Poole, in order to get it to Liver pool. The sheep and cattle of the district went to Warwick shire and Worcestershire, and to the other midland counties. If the railway were made it would be extensively used. Manures, which were much required, would no doubt be brought in return. Guano was imported at Southampton. OXFORD, WITNE Y, CHELTEN HAM, AND GLOUCESTER INDEPENDENT RAILWAY.—(THIS I)AY.) A general meeting of the shareholders and scripholders of this Company was held at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate st reet this day, for the purpose (as stated in the advertise ment) of considering a proposal to be made to unite this Companywith the proposed Cheltenham, Oxford and London Railway, upon certain terms and conditions to be stated at the meeting, and in case of such terms being Np-. proved and accepted by the meeting, then to authorise and empower the proper parties to unite this company with the proposed London, Oxford, and Cheltenham Railway Company, and to wind up the affairs of the Oxford, Witney, Cheltenham, and Gloucester Independent Railway Company. Sir JAMES DUKE, the chairman of the board of directors, took the chair a few minutes after twelve o'clock, and opened the proceedings as follows :—Gentiemen, I am glad in some respects to see so small a meeting here, because I • believe that it will in some respect testify that there is something like confidence in the directors as regards anything which we may have the honour of submitting to this meeting, and on their part and on my own I confess that I feel a great obligation for the confidence that has been manifested towards this Com pany, because, while I believe that it is generally understood that the Company's finances are in a very low state, there are no parties here who have come for the purpose of expres sing a want of confidence in the directors, because they have nut thought proper to call the proprietors together. Gentle men, I have been anxious for some time past that we should not abandon our line without some struggle, and an en deavour to obtain some advantages for you; and after negotiations with various parties, we have now come to the happy result of making such an arrange ment as I trust will be satisfactory—very satisfactory— to us all, under the circumstances. Gentlemen. before I allude further to that, I will state to you that we are honoured to-day with the presence of the solici tor of what was formerly the London and Birmingham Com pany, but now the London and North-Western Company, who attend li in order that he may confirm my statement, or supply any deficiencies which I may inadvertently make. Gentlemen, it has been my anxious wish on all oc casions to act straightforwardly, and, though our deed of settle ment gives the directors the cower of making this arrange ment, I thought it would be very ungracious, in return for the confidence which von have always evinced towards us, if we did not call you together, and give you an opportunity of expressing your opinion upon onr conduct with respect to this arrangement. And, at the same time, I may state that if your views are in unison with ours it will strengthen our hands in completing that arrangement. I will now, there fore, ask the Secretary to read. the advertisement calling you together for this special object, and then I will endea vour to explain to you the terms of the arrangement, Mr. J. Menzies, the Secretary of the Company, having accordingly read the advertisement, The CHAIRMAN continued as follows:—Now, gentlemen, some time ago we were in negotiation with the London and Birmingham Company, but their directors not being able to prevail upon them to take the same views of the advantage of taking us up, the negotiation (as, in fact, T apprehended) went off. However, upon further consideration, they requested me to see them again, and on Saturday last I received from them officially such a communication as I shall now read to you, with your permission. Having read the communication, the Chairman thus continued:— Now, gentlemen, there is another rival company in the field, the Great Western Company, and I felt that to talk to you about advancing more money, with the view of pro secuting this scheme in the next session of Parliament, was not likely to be a palatable project, and I therefore thought the 0 ly alternative that we had to resort to seas to those two endeavourto make the best arrangement that we could between Companies. Now, I will rea d to y ou a letter which I re ceived from our solicitor at Witne y , sul"rts our inte rests of the there, to show how much better the directors Birmingham Company have viewed and treated us than they were inclined to do. 1 will only read an extract, which is, Ithiok, all that is necessary :—" Although I could make no conditions relative to the independent line, yet I think that 500/. a thousand would be taken for them." Now, gentlemen, I need not tell you that, after such a proposi tion was made, I had nothing more to do than to secure that (in my opinion) very liberal offer, which has been made to us by the London and Birmingham Company.—(Hear.) Gentlemen, they in fact give us 63. 80. per share tor our plans and our intfrests. That is the real state of the case. They give us three six-and-eightpences, and we give . them three six-and-eightpe nces , making altogether 21.; so that we give 11., and th ey g i ve us 9/. for 1/. You will see, gentlemen, that their shares being 201.,With 10/. per cent. paid upon them, equal 2/., and that we give them three t em three shares, which are equal to thr. e six-and-eightpences ; they give us one of their shares—they to glvd3lisus, in tact, 40s. for 20s. But, gent l emen, i n addition ad vantage, I think that t h ere i s another great advantage, ry a n geinas. y could inas much as our line f rom O x f ord to Wune only com mand traffic between the two towns, but the project which the London and Birmingham contemplate is to make it, in fact, the Cheltenham and London line to Oxford, because it is to join their line at Tring, and by that means it will bring the) two towns of London and Cheltenham nearer than by any other route. Therefore, I am quite satisfied, gentlemen, that if Parliament act up to the principles which they have hitherto adopted, namely, in preferring the most direct course, there can be scarcely any opposition in the ensuing Parliament to this project. &sides, gentle men, if you look at the map you will see that the line from Oxford to Cheltenham is a north branch (f of the Great Western Railway ; and after both Houses of Parliament came to a solemn resolution, and subsequently enacted it by a Bill, that there an be no broad gauge north of the Great Western Railway, it is quite clear to me that this Company will have nothing to do but to go to Parliament 'and present their plans and obtain their Bill.—(Applause.) Now, gentlemen, there is also another view to be taken of the subject. You get shares in this Company. ' I have shown to you by the letter which I have read that the Birmingham directors—l speak of them still as the Birmingham directors, gentlemen, because as their last title is so new you will better understand what ay parties I mean, I call them vy the name of the Biritainghast directors—they will be gnaranteed a subscription cf n th ref ,- fourths of the capital required by that Comp an y , an their remaining fourth will be given to us , and such friends at Oxford, at Witney,ltt Cheltenham, and other plac es on the line, who have taken an interest in the undertaking. So ti tat, gentlemen, I need not tell yen that there is no chance; er those shares being at a discount, but that there is a very gr tat prospect of there being at a considerable premiunt as soon as this arrangement is completed.—(Cheers.) Now, gentlerneT! with respect to the prospects that these gen tl e men tertertarl of their line, th is is a skeleton of their prospectus. I at!;: sorry to say that it is not quite so complete an vil could wish; but the reason of that is obvio us. the arrangements were completed with the comParlY and until they had an opportunity of consaltini ; their principal engineer, Mr. R. Stephenson, and ascertain.: ing in every way that they possibly could the exact amour that they might consider necessary to carry on their lint 't they could not make the arrangement complete. Gentlem.qt they have shown the great sincerity with which they inters to carry out thi: project—they have given no less doe! eight members of their beard to the prov i s i ona l eel managing committee. • Now, gentlemen, I am cluS t satisfied that you will understand the position of the Lon( el! and Birmingham Company, and it will not be necessary •me to oxplain to you the importance of such an accession t; any company that may now be formed.—(Applause.) names of those eight gentlemen include those of Mr. Robe 4 Benson, Captain Mangles, M.P., Patrick Maxwell Stool Esq., M.P. Now, gentlemen, I was very anxious t bi a . I should be permitted, if I had the good fortune of eio.,,s l "„' this affair, to retire altogether ; but the solicitors of the v" 4 .: mingliam board said "we must have from you such a gle7 o rantce as will satisfy Parliament that we are, in fact, I' d , legal and proper heirs of your state.—(Hear , hear.) •A‘,l under these circumstances', it was agreed that I`3ao of the members of this board should continue 1 1 1.°4 the provisional committee.—(Hear, hear.) I sta l '', l to these gentlemen from the first to the last. that I via 3 . l 3 perfect blank sheet of paper, and that as long as they sb° l- f; a wish me to continue on the committee of the cornpasY9 a- 1 any good was to be gained by the shareholders then 3' would very gladly continue in any position which ti l l might wish me to occupy.—(aheers.) Now, gek-' ti ; nun, these are the names which the Birmingham hoft • have furnished to carry out their proposed line, and in add ` tion to those, there are other gentlemen connected with t 0.4 towns through which this line would pass—they are nan i a, of great respectability. Having read the names , the Chat man continued to say—ln addition to those gentlenfT; • there ie the respectable name, the well-known name , of Esb:; Stephenson as the engineer. Now, gentlemen, I think these .0; names which will satisfy you that unless the Birm in g b :k Company had seen that they were to carry it out with . 0 vantage, and with a view to the advantage of those Part!at who became subscribers with themselves, they Wou ld Is " v eno l( have come here to have made that offer which they sa es made. Gentlemen, the merits of our line have J.n "AO respect been tested by this fact, because you will De a 'er mind that the Great Western Company endeavoured' t° „° c )l • a line from Cheltenham from their Wolverhampton 1 1 °. - 1 8 0 in the last session. That was thrown out, 'There was' a - ttis another competing line running pretty nearly ",i fi e us, which did not succeed. It is, therefore , ct that the Great Western have fallen upon, as nearly as sible, our line of road, and that the same line of road bel' taken up by the Birmingham Company, does show , a t eet , events, some testimony of the merits of our original Pr.. 1 1)05 0 Gentlemen, you must bear in mind that, in taking uP t le of shares, we shall hand over to the new company the Winde, our plans, and de whole of everything that has bees io so that we shall have to pay a very small sum of m °°o '4 to deed for the necessary preliminaries and prepara o) , ° ; s a enable us to go to Parliament. That, gentlemen, is n• ! to gs object in addition to the direct pecuniary advar , ja which you get fur those plans. You get another advantglit fact, by saving the expense which would be required fin.„, 0 plans.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen, the next point , and the important pint, which I have to state to with respect to the proposition which has pa made by that Company, that we should r them 6s. Bd. per share, they aiao giving us t co al a share, so that for 20s. we receive 2 1 . ; so that _to leave in fact, one share for three without being called OL:er subscribe an additional penny.—(Hear, hear.) N0W, t1.1.4'.- pt tlemen, these are as nearly as possible all the poo l , ea' information that I can give you, and with the view tyiv e abling you to come to some resolution on the subject, b leb , sketched out, with my brother directors, a resolution, viol, if it meets your approbation, parhap3 some gentlema n kind enough to take up and bring before the meet tug " Resolved—That the proposal now made by then' ass Oxford, and Cheltenham Railway Company, of giv rin r i ers; share in that undertaking in exchange for three .;0,0• 0, with a payment of 6s.

He did not think that one word more was nog to ensure to the resolution which he had to prOpOSe " mous reception. - (Cheers.) sharef—en(Cheelrs.)stated, 44 Mr. Ant:PER-1 shall be happy to second the resolua- . The resolution was then put from the chair, tilid casf l unanimously, with loud cheering. „ a afs o The CHAIRMAN then said—Gentlemen, I must v- -- , 40 P that I am grateful to you for this mark of your 47.to deuce, and I am sure that my brother dirTtlei must be equally grateful to you for this M a d vote ar c ( oa r assistance which you have always rendered to us in ,tlO ing out this project ; and I beg to assure you, gentletneFoo. we shall be most anxious, in our position as provisiou*i.,, e ar mitteemen iu the new company, to do everything 2' lo o power to maintain our character and the confidence you been pleased to bestow upon us. .ietss ll Mr. Maesuann moved a vote of thanks to the taua'i ivz and his brother directors for the interest which they bt h - ta nifested in the concerns of the Company, and particuta`' the former, for his conduct in the chair that day. 3OlO The resolution having b ee n s econded and carriea et iag , acclamations, the Chairman responded, and t A_A lie T it e half which was most unanimous throughout, separeee - past twelve.
