Yesterday one of the most voluminous returns that pro bably ever issued from the Parliamentary printing-press made its appearance, in the form , of a catalogue of upwards of 540 folio pages, consisting of an alphabetical and numerical list of the names of all persons in England and Ireland, and Scotland, who subscribed towards the railways of last session less than 2,0001. The return is a curious collocation of the names, addresses, and amount of interest of every investor in the lines before Parliament last session, to a less extent than 2,0001. It defies all notions of analysis, and is a sort of stupendous postscript to the return recently i ssued of all subscribers to railways beyond 2,000/. though far more No. 16,660. TATPNDON.

"IRON TIMES" NEWSPAPER COMPANY. (Provisionally Registered.) Capital 63,0001., in Shares of 1/. Is. each. Offices of the Company, No. 41, Moorgate-street. For some years before the late mischievous movement against railway interests on the part of the " Times " newspaper, it had been evident to all persons engaged in business, that in giving their advertisements to that journal they were themselves encouraging and fostering a newspaper which, while it derived the principal part of its support from the industry and energy of the mercantile and commercial classes of the community, was acting in every way against their interests. But however unwilling those classes might be to lend their aid to such ajournal by sending to it their advertisements, it was compul sory upon them to do so, from the fact of the large circulation of the " Times " rendering it the only existing medium for obtaining the de sirable publicity. A remedy or an alternative was sought htvahrk the existence of a journal, with a circulation to answer the purpOseS of a sufficient publicity for advertisements, remained a desiderktuinc - This want appears to be now supplied by the " Iron Times," and the projectors of the "Iron Times" Newspaper Company have per ceived—in the manner in which that journal has recently assumed the character of a General Morning Newspaper, and the skill and talent which have been displayed la supporting that character—a power of expansion and development which, if duly supported by an amount of capital immediately available, must inevitably render the " Iron Times " the leading journal of the age. Founded on the basis of the " Iron Times" as a Railway News paper, the " Iron Times," as a Gerkeral Newspaper, has a point d'appui to start from, such as it has never hitherto been the good fortune of any journal to attain. To the success of a newspaper there are two points necessary— circulation and advertisements. These combined—or even one of them singly—have never, in any - instance, been arrived at without a great outlay and risk of capital • both of these, however, the " Iron Times " has at starting. It ha s but to add to them. Actuated by this impression, and desirous to insure dile -perm*. nence of an honest and independent Daily Morning Newspaper, tlie property of no clique, either political or literary, a Company Wit been constituted for the purpose of purchasing the " Iron Timei," and infusing into it that amount of immediately-available capital, which alone appears necessary to insure its increased usefulness as a public journal, and an increased ratio of profits to all parties con cerned. As a. commercial speculation the success of the " Iron Times" is a matter of public notoriety, and the Committee of Management of the Company, from the examination of the books, accounts, &c., have no hesitation in announcing the probability of a return of at least twenty-five per cent., or ss. per share, on the capital invested. To carry into effect the objects of the promoters of the Company, it is intended to create a capital of 64,0001., divided into 60,000 shares of 11. ls. each—the whole to be pale up. None of these shares will be allotted to the public until complete registration, which will be per fected in the course of a few days, By arrangements with the present proprietor of the journal, a limited number, not exceeding 4,000 shares, will be issued in the first instance, at par ; after which there will be a further issue of a similar number at 11. prem. per share ; the remainder at such periods and at such prices as the Committee of Management shall de termine, and the augmented value and importance of the property of the Company shall demand. The arrangements for the protection of the interests of the share laolders—for a pre-emption in favour of original subscribers, for sub sequent issue of shares, for the limitation of their liability, and for the regulation and management of the undertaking—have been matured; and the deed of settlement te, carry these arrangements into legal effect, is now under the coxt.Cieration of counsel.

RHEUMATISM.- All those suffering from Rheumatism, Chilblains, Lumbago, Tic-Doloreux, Cramp, Sprains, &c., will find immediate relief and a speedy cure by using CORRALL'S EMBROCATION. The great and increasing demand or this novel Embrocation induces the proprietor to introduce 4 more generally to the public, satisfied that one trial alone tivil be sufficient to convince the most sceptical of its superiority over-all other articles offered for similar purposes. Sold in bottles at Is. 1%d., 25., and 2s. 9d. each, by the Sole Pro- Tutor, George Richardson, 12, Norland-place, Notting-hill, and yy his appointment by Barclay and Sons, 95, Farringdon• street ; and J. Sanger, 150, Oxford-street. Orders, by post, directed to the Proprietor, promptly attended to. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. LIST OF PLANS DEPOSITED AT THE PRIVATE BILL-OFFICE. - The following is a perfect list of the lines, 721 in number, that have deposited the necessary plans, sections, books of reference; lists of owners, lessees, and occupiers; estimates, and copies of subscription contract, in the Private Bill-office, and may be looked upon as the best guarantee yet given of the sincerity and good faith of the respective promoters, so far as any intended ulterior proceedings are concerned. The notices in the Gazette, and lodgments with the Board of Trade, though important and indispensable processes, were relatively unimportant and inexpensive compared with the routine of the Private Bill-office and the 31st of December, when, in addition to the deposits with the Private Bill-office, notices have to be served simultaneously on every occupant and landowner on the route of line, with every parish-clerk in England, schoolmaster in Scotland, and postmaster in Ireland, stationed in the various parishes. The expense of this process may be readily conceived when it is known that, besides the outlay in preparation of the notices, large numbers of persons have to be paid for serving them, the solicitor being, it is understood, entitled to U. fee for every service effected. According, moreover, to the scale of fees, the Speaker has 5/. for every private Bill, 10s. is demanded for entering a private Bill, with the names and addresses of the Parliamentary agent and solicitor, and the name of the committee clerk, and 6s. Bd. for receiving and taking care of the books, plans, esti mates, and other documents. The Private Bill-office, however, is only introductory to the more trying ordeal of deposits with the Exchequer, which, preparatory to petition for leave to pro ceed, can alone be looked to as a conclusive criterion. It is observable that the schemes enumerated below are by about one-half numerically less than those originally registered, amounting, if we remember rightly, to about 1,400, and by about fifty-seven less than those deposited with the Board of Trade: 1.
