Seldom do we encounter a periodical, devoted to the interests of a particular class, addressing itself so im mediately to that class, and so singularly to a general reader. The number of the agricultural journal before us is precisely of this character ; it is moreover replete with matters most important (we had almost said ne cessary) for the perusal of every tenant-farmer in the United Kingdom, who is at all ambitious of becoming an adept in his profession by keeping up with the rapid progress of scientific knowledge as applied to its mani pulation. Should there be any individuals amongst this class old-fashioned and opaque enough to deny "The Importance of Science for Agriculture," we refer him with confidence to the paper so en titled in this sixth part of the Plough. He will change his opinions on its perusal—or he is an incorrigible dul lard. Again we earnestly direct attention to the series of " Queries submitted to the consideration of the Prac tical Farmer," at Inge 597. It is an admirable notion fur accumulating agricultural statistics, and seems likely to overthrow those difficulties which have pre vented their official accumulation hitherto. We presume the debate the other evening in the House of Commons, where commercial and agricultural suggestions were re lativelyt made by Lord Gorge Bentinck and Mr. Bright, , suggested the scheme to the compiler of these inquiries. If the tenant-farmers wish well to their country and to themselves, they will throw facilities someh_orwomor other ia n the way of collecting the statistics.

This generepy s t if tk e rp n r u r t ed n , n u c so n e so that all the nutrition of the grain is ourl retained, and the coarse bran only rejected ; thus, if no aaimals be kept on the premises requiring " pollard " food, this substance remains in the flour which is intended for baking—thus far ensuring economy. Our reason for object ing to the introduction of potatoes—(an ingredient which enters always and largely into the manufacture of baker's bread)—is, that while they appear to increase the bulk of the material, they actually lessen it, by the large quantity of water they contain ; also that while they make bread lighter, they cause it to become harsh, and to dry very speedily ; and just in proportion to the quantity of potatoes introduced do we find bread flavourless. " A batch of bread for the consumption of a small family for a week, will probably consist of twenty-four pounds of "grist," or farmer's flour; this, when water, and yeast, and salt, be added, will weigh in the dough about thirty pounds. The best utensil for the purpose of kneading, is a large well glazed earthen pan, much wider at the top than the bottom ; the advantage which this possesses over a wooden tray or trough is, that the former is keep more sweet and clean than the latter. Yeast, either from a brewer or from bser brewed at home, can be used ; but we always prefer the last-men tioned, and have long since proved by the best test, that of experience, that the absurd prejudice against its use is to tally without foundation " " Winter and summer bakings require different treatment : the best temperature for thoroughly working bread is 50 or 61 degrees of heat ; this, habit will determine to be an agree able warmth, not a hot state. In winter, therefore, the flour should be placed in the pan, and set sloping towards and in front of the fire for an hour before the preparations for baking commence ; in summer it will be put at a distanca. It the process be conducted in too cool a state, the dough will not rise; if it be too hot, the yeast will be scalded, and the fermentative principle destroyed." " The Agriculturist and the Patriot," is a ridiculous bit of antiquity. We beg to remind the writer that the protective system is already virtually abolished. "Anec dotes of Agriculture," make an excellent budget of memorabilia on the subject : we trust the notion will be resumed. With a mass of other miscellaneous articles, the Plough " comes off" this month creditably. THE DUTCH IN BORNEO. A very long resolution of the Governor-General of Netherlands India in council, relative to Borneo, shows the importance attached by the Dutch to that island, and the efforts they are disposed to make to maintain their footing there. This manifestation has no doubt been called forth by the late proceedings of the English there, and may be taken as a sign that the most careful watch will be kept upon all our movements in that quarter, and every opportunity taken - to thwart our efforts at colonisation in Borneo. The following is a precis of the:most important parts of this resolution :—lt commences by setting forth that the exertions used for more than twenty-five years to raise the native population of Borneo from their ne glected state, and for the effectual prevention of piracy, ba►e no unity in these efforts, and because they were principally carried on at the coasts where the Dutch functionaries reside, and where they were often impeded by adverse interests. It is further stated that an unsuccessful attempt to promote industry and civilisation by abolishing impedi ments to trade and establishing free ports, had been made ; and for the purpose of facilitating, and, if ne cessary, increasing those liberal regulations, it has been deemed advisable to unite the whole of the sepa rate and independent Dutch settlements under one central Government to be established in the interior, which will be able to put itself in immediate connexion with the natives, whose protection and moral and re ligious civilisation is to be the aim of the proposed mea sure. The late Dutch mission to Borneo is said to have thrown much light on the resources of the country, which it is hoped will be more and more developed for the general good. The information so obtained likewise affords the means of defining the boundaries of the Dutch territory, bat it is specially declared that this naming of boundaries shall not in any way be held as a renunciation of any claim the Dutch may have to any territory not therein claimed. It is accordingly found good and ordained that all the separate residences and divisions under Dutch authority on the south and east coast, and also the west coast of Borneo, and all their dependencies, are in future to be united into one general government of Borneo and de pencies. Mr. A. L. Weddill is named Governor, who is to fix his residence at some central place in the inte rior, and all the residents, &c., are placed under his orders. The not i ficat ion then goes on at great length to fix the boundaries of the Dutch territory, and enumerate the islands and other dependencies which are to be in cluded in the new Government.—Overland Singapore Free Press, April 7. EARLY HAY-MAKING —Hay-making commenced in some of the upper parts of this country in the course of last week; and on Saturday a scene seldom witnessed at this early period so low down the country occurred at Thaxted, when Mr. T. Newell, the landlord of the Cock Inn, carted a field of fine meadow hay, producing two tons to the acre, after which he spread a hospitable table, and his friends and assistants spent a merry evening after their first labours of early " haysell."—Essex Herald. EXTENSIVE EMBEZZLEMENT BY A PARISH OFFICER. —Yesterday morning, at the Public Office, Birmingham, a genteely dressed man, named Joseph Piercy Yeomans Welch, late clerk to the guardians of the poor for the parish of Birmingham, and formerly treasurer to the same body, was charged with having embezzled various sums of money, the property of the parochial officers. The amount of the defalcations, as at present ascertained, is about 1,1001., and although they have been accumulating for some years past, it is only within the last few months that any suspicion at tached to Welch, whose first appointment under the pa rochial authorities took place in 1822, and who was, after the lapse of ten years, elected treasurer, which office he held until about twelve months since. Welch continued in the office of clerk to the board of guardians till within the last four or five months, when, pleading illness, he resigned his situation. Shortly after his resigna tion, he was called upon to make up his accounts, when his book showed a deficit of 460/., and the accused also acknow ledged that there was a further earn of 5001., which he be lieved was due to the parish, and which he regretted his ina bility at once to pay over. Steps were taken to endeavour to ascertain correctly and recover the amount due to the pa rish, but while these were pending Welch left Birmingham, but was accidentally seen entering his apartments in Norton street, New-road. Information having been forwarded to Birmingham, an inspector of police immediately came up to London, and apprehended the prisoner on Friday, night, and conveyed him to Birmingham, where he will be brought up for examination on Thursday nex t, a reman d t o th a t d a y havin g been granted.

A MAN COMMITTED FOR BITING OFF A COM PANION'S EAR.—A drunken affray has just taken place at the fashionable watering-place of Great Malvern, Worcester shire, which has ended in the committal of one of the parties on the extraordinary charge of biting off another man's ear. The circumstances of this affair are briefly as follows. A few nights ago Edward Thomas, Richard Burrow, William Bur• row, William Pritchard, and others, were drinking at a beer house at Malvern, kept by a woman named Bough. Some of the company had been quarrelling, and when they were turned out at eleven o'clock, the two Burrows and Pritchard proposed to return and " give it" to George Bough, one of the landlady's sons. No sooner said than done—they the door open and went into th e house, Thomas followed them, and seeing Richard Burrow ab ou t, as he thtught, to strike the landlady, he interfered, and pushed her awa y .

GROUP I, LONDON AND YORK (THE EASTERN COUNTXES). (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.) A few witnesses were then called to prove the value of the property proposed to be taken by the Eastern Counties line. This closed the case for the promoters of the line. Mr. Calvert, Mr. Brent, and Mr. Spooner, were heard for the landowners against the Eastern Counties. No witnesses were called in support of the case. Mr. BAINES was then heard on behalf of the Cambridge and Lincoln Extension line. The Learned Counsel, in an able address, sought to impress upon the Committee the supe riority of the line over t hat p roposed by the Eastern Counties or the London and York Companies. At the conclusion of t he Learned Counsel's speech, th e Committee adjourned till eleven o'clock to-morrow. nian Extension, in its original form, to lease it at a rate of not less than 4 per cent. on the whole capital. But the original plan having been altered on account of the eastern portion of the Caledonian Extension being re jected by the Standing Orders' Committee, the matter assumed a new form. It had not yet been fully consi dered by the directors of the Caledonian Company, and it could not be decided without full communication with the ' shareholders. Yet, inasmuch as the western portion of the Caledonian Extension, which was retained, was the most favourable portion of the scheme, if the Bill for it was obtained, it would come b e f ore the shareholders of the Caledonian Company, when there was no doubt they would see at once the propriety of leasing it.--(Hear.) Mr. BUCKLEY said he was a holder in this Company of shares which he purchased for investment, and not for speculation. Had he sold out last year and bought in now he might have cleared 1,5001. by the transaction; still he preferred to hold on, and would continue to do so, as he believed it would yet turn out one of the best paying lines in the United Kingdom. If they only waited till the line was opened, he was sure they would obtain 50 per cent. on their shares over the original price.—(Hear, hear.) He trusted he would live to see the shares at a good premium, and if the directors could only be persuaded to give a small interest on the capital paid up, as was done by some other companies, say even 3 per cent , it would be of great importance, and give vigour to the whole Company. A SHAREHOLDER inquired when it was likely the line would be opened ? The CHAIRMAN believed that the line would be opened throughout early in the year 1848. A portion of the line, however, to the extent of 80 miles, he hoped would be open next summer, about the Ist of July. Mr. BUCKLEY trusted the directors would arrange the calls so as to press as light as possible on the share holders. _ _ _ _ The CHAIRMAN—We have already 151. per share paid up. When 251. is paid we can then proceed upon the powers of our Act of Parliament to borrow money, and you may rest assured we will take care to press you as little as possible. Mr. P. M. STEWART, M.P., said, as he held a consi derable stake in the Caledonian Company, he could not resist saying a few words in reference to the decision which had just been recorded against it by a Committee of the House of Commons—a decision so contrary to justice, and to the determination come to last ses sion of Parliament, that he was quite sure they would yet find redress in the House of Commons itself. If there was any faith to be placed in the deci sions of Parliament, if there was any trust to be re posed in the Legislative body, the matter must end in favour of the Caledonian Company, which had been sanctioned by Parliament, after passing through a rigid ordeal of ten years. [le maintained that on the faith of Parliament the Caledonian Company had proceeded to execute their works; yet now they found a competing line, which last year had been tried and found want ing, let loose upon them. There would be an end to all confidence in Parliament if it sanctioned this most unjust and untoward proceeding. According to the usage of Parliament, it was required that when a report is brought up from a Committee a day is fixed for its consideration ; when that came on, all he would say was, that if the House of Commons confirmed that re port, it would create the feeling in the country that pro perty was not safe while Parliament was sitting.—(Hear, hear.) But there was another tribunal to which it would have to go, and where he was sure a Duke and one or two Marquises would find no favour beyond their intrinsic worth.—(Hear.) He could say both the London and Birmingham and the Grand Junction Railway Compa nies felt the liveliest interest in these proceedings, and he had no doubt they would yet bring matters to a favour able issue. He thought it his duty to say so much, and he assured them he would do what he could to sustain the Caledonian scheme before the House in its original integrity. At present they were labouring under this unfavourable decision, but such had been the unac countable want of business conduct on the part of the gentlemen who composed the Committee, that he would be much surprised indeed if they (the Company) yet did not get justice done.—(Cheers.) Mr. VANDERWALL recalled the attention of the meet ing to the question of interest on the deposits. Mr. HODGSON, M.P., said the meeting was not com petent to entertain that question to-day. Under present circumstances considerable advantage might result from an arrangement for the payment of interest, and there fore he did not object to it. He had formerly thought such a course was not advisable, but as many other Companies had acted upon this plan he would not oppose it, and it would no doubt receive the attentive considera tion of the Committee. With regard to the Glasgow and Dumfries scheme, it would be found that the ques tion had been decided by the Committee on the question of its local merits, and independent of the consideration of its being an independent competing trunk line with the Caledonian. If so, then it was a clear question for the House of Com mons at large to enter upon. He hoped the subject would be brought fully and fairly before Parliament, in order to see whether they who sanctioned the Cale donian line last year would allow another com peting trunk line to be constructed against it now. The CHAIRMAN then took the vote of the meeting on the whole of the Bills submitted, which was as follows: Scrip represented at the meeting-- Assents Dissents Neuter The CHAIRMAN declared that this concluded the busi ness of the meeting. Mr. BUCKLEY moved a vote of thanks to the Chair man for his great attention to the interests of the Com pany and his conduct that day. Mr. ASTON seconded the motion, which was put and carried by acclamation. The CHAIRMAN returned thanks for the manifesta tion of feeling just shown, and said nothing would so much encourage him to labour in their behalf as the consciousness that he possessed the confidence of such a body. The meeting then separated. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of June 2.) SUGAR.—To-day the British Plantation Sugar market was cleared, but business will be resumed to-morrow. A fair quantity is declared for public sale. REFINED.—The home trade have purchased all descriptions of refined goods with caution since last Tuesday. Although there are sellers upon lower terms, the market is better sup plied as the refiners continue to work freely. Pieces have been sparingly dealt in, and lower rates are taken. For Bas tards rather lower rates having been taken occasioned large parcels to be disposed of. For Treacle the demand is brisk, but the supply is small of all kinds ; prices in consequence rule high. _ _ _ _ MAtanius.—There has been little business transacted by private treaty in refining or grocery descriptions, and 9,286 bags and casks at auction did not generally bring previous prices, but the whole found buyers. EAST INDlA.—Although there are sellers of all descriptions of Bengal by private treaty rather under previous rates, still little business has been transacted, and none has been brought to public sale. All Foreign East India sorts are still wanted, and the supply continuing to be small, prices still rule high. Manilla has been disposed of to a very fair extent privately. FOREIGN.—To-day several inquirics existed for nearly all descriptions of Foreign Sugar, but holders insisting upon stiffer rates, business of moment was prevented privately; and only 100 cases of brown Maceio were sold for arrival at 18s. per cwt. None was offered at public sale ; but sonic parcels are declared. _ _ TEA.—None has again been offered public sale, but the market has assumed a dull appearance, and in some cases rather lower rates have been accepted for black, but green is held for the former currency. The value of common Congou is 91 to W, and good common 10d per lb, cash. Hyson of low quality is not to be had under 2s, and Twankay of low and fair yellowish leaf quality is held for is to is 2d per lb. lloLAssEs.—All kinds of West India have been much in demand, and advanced rates are again paid. The total quantity sold has been 600 puns Trinidad of fine quality at 255, St. Vincents 26a 6d to 275, old Grenada 21s 6d : the supply is nr.t ample for the demand.—Bengal Treacle has been in good request, and prices are still rising, fine bringing 21s 6d to 225. Honey of common quality is still much in demand, and fetch full rates, that is to say—the sorts from 20s to 355, but the latter kinds are not much in demand. COFFEE.—Although there are sellers of the lower descrip tions of West India by private treaty rater under previous rates, still the business transacted has been trifling, and of such there is a fair supply—the mid and superior sorts are however wanted, and in consequence of the small stock, buyers are compelled to give previous rates. None has again been offered at auction • arrivals continue small, the stock is less than it was last year, and prices are lower, but the deliveries continue on a small scale only. That the importation will be even deficient to that of the former season there can be no doubt. East India Coffee adapted for home consumption being still plentiful, a further fall in the value has ensued, but export sorts being brought sparingly to market we have little variation to record in prices, but there is a want of demand. RUM, BRANDY. AND HOLLANDS.—Leeward Island Rum has been in excellent request, and in consequence of the li mited supply at market, buyers have been compelled to pay further ad vance d rates. A l arge b us i ness wou ld have b een done bad the market been better supplied. Calcutta has been purchased with increased freedom, and prices are on the advance, 500 casks having been sold at Is 9d to Is 10d proof with certificate—at which holders are firm. No advance has taken place in the value of Jamaica, the market having been well supplied. But the operations are upon a more extended scale in all sorts, and the quantity sold has been 250 puncheons, at former rates. The at , rivals of Rum have been small since this day week, whereas the home and export deliveries keep good. The purchases made in all kinds of Brandy have been extremely limited by exporters and the home trade, and it is difficult to quote prices with accuracy. The demand for British Corn Spirits is dull, but prices keep at lOs 6d for English nett cash ; 103 4d to 103 5d for Irish and Scotch. English Gin 22 per cent under proof 8s 10d, and 17 under 9s 4d. pa r r s e and ev e n t h l SPlCES . —N otwithstanding the low rates a t w hi c h Bl ac k c a l u el c i t N i .e o rie i sar a e r go e i . ng on The sa stock Pepper is obt a i na bl e, still the demand has been limited from e x r i p c o es rte e ow h e o r m t e ha t n ra t t. y w T e h re e a q t ua th n a ti t ty tim de e cla an re d d t f h o e r n s lg t i o sf c a k etoril isless th i a l t v ii n it i t w e a s 4 ev las er t al yea a r r- ; cels have be en taken, but pricescannot be quoted hi h r Nutmegs ate littl e wanted.

The importation however, has been much less than it was last year, but prices are higher, whereas the stock is less. For Cassia Lignea the market has a dull appearance, and prices looking down ; the quantity declared for auction is very large, amounting to nearly 8,000 chests. The inferior sorts of Ceylon Cinnamon have been in excellent request, but holders are compelled to take t be low rates of Is to Is 6d per lb ; the b e tt er ki nds are held for last quarterly sale's prices, prices, but littl e b us i ness • has been done.

Other kinds of Tallow have sustained the former value, and met with a fair demand. _ OiLs.—lmporters of Southern Oil are still willing sellers, there having been further arrivals, and they have accepted prices rather under those that previously prevailed ; there has, however, been a good business transacted by private treaty. Sea Elephant Oil has fallen in value. Cod is little wanted, and there are sellers upon rather lower terms, but only small parcels have been disposed of privately at 281. The stock is still light, and held by few parties. For Seal Oil previous rates are insisted upon, but all kinds have been sparingly dealt in by exporters and the home trade. There being sellers of Sperm upon previous reduced terms, occasioned a good business to be transacted privately. Prices of every sort of Fish Oil are still under those of last year at this time. Cocoa Nut has been purchased with more freedom, and full rates are given. Palm has been in excellent demand, and former prices are well maintained ; the supply at market not being large, several parcels have been sold pri vately. These are few purchasers of Rape Seed Oil to be met with, although Pale can be obtained at 33s 6d to 345, and brown at 32s 6d to 33s per cwt the market is still well sup plied ; in Foreign Brown there is, however, still a good busi ness doing at 32s to 32s 6d. For Olive the demand is still limited for all purposes, although there are sellers at moderate rates. Of Linseed Oil large parcels have been disposed of on the spot, in consequence of the reduced rates of 24s to 24s 3d being taken. TUESDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE. BUCKINGHAM PALACE, MAY 29, 1846.

LAW IN TELLIGENCE. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, June 2. (Sittings in Banco.) The Court at its sitting delivered some judgments ; but they were devoid of any special interest calling for a particular report. The Court then proceeded to hear arguments upon demurrers which stood over for discussion. WHITTAKER v. RICHARDS. This was an action of assumpsit, involving several breaches of the covenants of an agreement, and was in teresting as a question often arising between landlord and tenant. It now came before the Court in the shape of a special demurrer, assuming the character and form of a general demurrer set up by the defendant to the plain tiff's delaration. It appeared that a gentleman named Jones leased for a term of years certain premises at Highgate to the plaintiff in this action, Mr. Whittaker, a solicitor in Lincoln's Inn, and that there were several covenants in the lease binding plaintiff, and amongst them one to keep the premises in a state of re pair during the term of his holding. Plaintiff sublet the premises to the defendant for a term of two years, short of one day ; and the defendant in the agreement was alleged to have bound himself to the performance on his part of " all the covenants" in the original agree ment between plaintiff and Mr. Jones. Plaintiff's de claration pleaded that defendant had thus bound himself to keep the premises in repair, and that not merely for the term of his taking, but for the larger term of seven years, fur which plaintiff was bound to keep them in re pair. To this the plaintiff demurred, and the case now came on to be argued. Mr. PEACOCK appeared for the plaintiff, and con tended for the larger construction, maintaining that the defendant had made himself liable, upon strict investiga tion of the agreement, to keep the promises in repair for the term of the plaintiff's holding the agreement showing that he had bound himself to take the premises, subject to all the covenants in the original lease. Mr. BURNI, for the defendant, held the contrary; and submitted that the plaintiff's declaration was ambiguous; that it would be absurd to suppose that the defendant would for a moment bind himself to the fulfilment of " all the covenants" in the original lease; as, for in stance, the covenant binding plaintiff to pay his rent. Surely the Court would not for a moment suppose that the defendant would bind himself to that covenant ? Looking, then, at the case altogether, he (►Mr. Burni) submitted to the Court that the construc tion of the agreement was limited, the defendant intend ing the narrower construction of two years when he took the premises; that the plaintiff's declaration was bad, and that the judgment should be for the defendant. The Court conferred together for some time, and de livered judgment in favour of the plaintiff, the Learned Judges respectively h - olding that, in the terms of the agreement, the defendant had put himself in the position of the plaintiff respecting the repairs, and bound himself to the covenants for plaintiff's term, it appearing to the Court that he took the premises with that understanding POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. THE FORGERY OF THE BUCKINGHAMSHIRE RAILWAY AND OXFORD AND BLETCULEY SCRlP.—Yesterday, the same degree of interest which was manifested on the first examination of Faulkner and Fabian, the persons who stand charged with the forging of the scrip of the Buckinghamshire Railway, and Oxford and Bletchley Junction Company, displayed itself in the justice room at the more detailed investigation. Mr. Clarkson appeared for the prosecution, under taken by Mr. Solomons against the prisoners, for the forgery of scrip to the amount of 500/ ; and Mr. Ballan tine and Mr. Doane attended for the prisoners. Alder man Gibbs presided. Mr. W. Harding, secretary to the Company, was the first witness called by the Counsel for the prosecution. He stated that the offices of the Company were in George-street, Westminster. He ordered the scrip from for the Company, under the direction of the Board of Management, and Messrs. Smith and Ebbs, of Tower-hill, were the only persons who executed the printing of the scrip. (Here a genuine scrip form was identified by the witness.) He had the counterfeit of the scrip produced. The numbers were noted by the clerks and signed by him, and the issue commenced in October. (A quantity of what appeared to be copies of the genuine scrip was then produced.) He believed the forms pro duced to be spurious. He had signed all the genuine scrip, and the forgeries were skilful copies of his writing, and had all the characteristics of the genuine vouchers. The good and the fictitious were not printed at the same time. The genuine and the forged documents were then ex amined by Alderman Gibbs. The following is a copy of one of the forged scrip :- 1845. (Scrip.) Buckingham Railway, and Oxford, and Bletchley Junction. Provisionally Registered. Capital, 2,250,0001. in shares of 201. each. Deposit, 21. 2s. per share. No. 70,401 to 70,450. The holder of this voucher is entitled to 50 shares in the above undertaking, he having signed the subscribers, agreement and Parliamentary contract, paid tht deposit as above, and agreed to pay all calls in respect of the said shares. By order ofthe Provisional Committee of Management, W. HARDING. The difference between the copy produced and the genuine scrip was not perceptible to an ordinary ob server, so that the witness appeared to test the quality of the documents by a comparison with the counterfoil. In his cross-examination by Mr. Ballantine, who did not consider it necessary to go strictly into the question on the present stage of the proceedings, Mr. Harding said that the company had not yet obtained its Act of Parliament, and there were no certificates commonly called shares. The scrip, without the signature of the party to whom the allotment was made to the deed, would intitle the party to nothing. It was the signa ture to the deed that intitled the party to the shares. In re-examination by Mr. Clarkson, the witness said the Company was provisionally registered, according to the late Act of Parliament. There had been no scrip issued to so high a number as 70,000 by the Company. Mr. Ballantine professed the utmost indifference as to the name which the pieces of paper produced might be called, whether they were d.signated as receipts, or vouchers, or warrants. He thought it would be a very difficult matter to prove that they are instruments of any value at all.—(A laugh.) Mr. Charles Moody, lithographer, of High Holborn, was next called. He stated that about two months ago, in consequence of an advertisement which appeared in the Times newspaper, addressed to lithographers, he went to No. 42, Gower-place, and there saw the prisoner Fabian, and another gentleman. Fabian said they were in want of a competent lithographic printer, and one who had a press of a size which he mentioned. Witness said he had been many years a lithographic printer, and was competent to undertake anything relating to lithography. Fabian was the person who spoke to him most. That prisoner said he wanted some impressions to be worked from plates which he ' s had, and he wanted them to be worked under his own eye. Witness intimated that of course they would want an experienced person to litho graph. Fabian said No, they laid their own plans. The other gentleman, who was lying on a sofa s mo ki ng a cigar, said but little. Witness did not recognise him in the justice room. They said they wished the work done there, and witness told them if the work was of such consequence they could have a room in his house, and they would keep the key, and he would forfeit 501. as compensation if anything was injured or touched. He was induced to make the proposition because they ap peared to consider the matter to be of great consequence, and that not one was to be parted with or seen. They stated that they wished the work to be done while they were personally present, and each would be worth 501. They asked what the expense might be, to which witness replied, that he did not really know, but that his time was valuable, and he expected an adequate recompense, and they then said that the expense did not signify. They added that they were glad the suggestion had been made as to the room with the press in it, and they promised to call next morning, but they did not keep their word. Mr. Ballantine (pointing to the forged scrip)—ls that lithographic printing ? Witness—l cannot say whether it is or not. My impression is that it is not letter-press, but it is from stone or a zinc plate. Alderman Gznns—l should have supposed it was letterpress. Witness—l do not think it is. Mr. Clarkson said he should next produce a witness, who would testify as to a transaction in Buckingham shire shares, with Faulkner only. Mr. John Benton, speculator or jobber in railway shares, stated that he knew Faulkner, and received from him 250 Buckinghamshire, &c. scrip, in February or March, to raise a certain sum of meney upon. He could not say whether Fabian was present at the time, but he thought it was from Faulkner's hand he received the scrip. He had no doubt, whatever, that he received it from Faulkner. It must have been some days previously to the 17th of March. (Witness here specified the num bers of the 250 scrip stated in this case to be forged.) He parted with the scrip to Mr. John Henry Morgan, he thought, on the same day. He raised, he thought, 2501. upon it, and paid that sum to Faulkner and Fabian. One receipt he received from Faulkner, and the other from Faulkner and Fabian's clerk, ma of whom acted in the transaction. He was nearly sure that he paid 150/. to Faulkner ; and, he believed,• the receipt pro duced, was in Faulkner's hand -writing. Mr. John Henry Morgan stated that he was a share jobber. He received 250 shares from Mr. Benton on the 13th of' March, and he sold them the same day to two different stockbrokers. He paid the money he re ceived also on the same day. Mr. Thomas Green, share agent, of No. 16, Old Broad street. a partner in the house of Jones, Cook, and Green, stated, on the 13th March he received 150 shares from Mr. Morgan for sale, after the Stock E xc hange had closed. He paid for 100 of those shares , deducting commission, 1471. los. to Mr. Morga n in Bank and soon afterwards he paid to him for the other notes, other 50 shares, 731. 155., deducting commission. The scrip was delivered over to Mr. Lamond. here the witness submitted that perhaps the evidence into which the examination was calculated to lead him wou ld be prejudicial to h is firm in an action depending between Mr. Lamon d and them for a considerable a mount. He thought that prob abl y he mi g h t be making out the case of the adverse party, but if public justice required it, he should not hesitate to proceed with his testimony. Mr. Clarkson here called Mr. Henry Martin, clerk to Mr. Solomons, the prosecutor. This witness stated in substance what was deposed by Mr. Solomons on the first examination, relative to y the introduction of Mr. F a bi an to him by Mr. Richards, for the purpose of bor row i ng money on the Bucktng inghamshire scrip. Mr. Richards, he said, was p ra i s i ng the Buckingham scr ip d ur i ng the whole period of th e negotiation, and so was M r. Fabian, but not so much as Richards praised it. From the whole of Fabian's con- duct, witness believed him to be a gentleman wholly un connected with business or jobbing. It was ultimately agreed that Mr. Solomons should cash his own cheque fur 4801. upon the scrip which Fabian brought to him. After the productinn of some confirmatory evidence, Mr. Clarkson stated that he should apply for the com mittal of the prisoner on Thursday next. _ _ Mr. Ballantine submitted the offences charged against the prisoners were not offences under any Act of Par liament. The evidence went to impute only a misde meanour at common law,or a misdemeanour of some other kind. The magistrate was therefore bound to accept bail f)r their appearance to take their trial on that charge. That was the only request he had to make on the part of his clients, and he applied for it, not as a favour, but as a right. Mr. Clarkson hoped the magistrate would not come to any decision of the sort, but send the prisoners for trial for felony. tic could show dealings of the kind he had described to the amount, not merely of hundreds, but of many thousands. The question whether the scrip constituted a valigable security was not to be determined there. Alderman GIBBS said he should remand the prisoners until Thursday, in order that the depositions might be fairly made out, and that he should then commit them for trial at the next sessions of the Cemtral Criminal Court. POISONING IN NORFOLK. THE CORONER'S INQUIRY RESUMED. HAPPISBURGH, MONDAY MORNING.—In consequence of the disclosures that have been made in the course of the private inquiry instituted by the Secretary of State, J. Pilgrim, Esq., one of the coroners for Norfolk, opened another investigation this day at East Ruston, a village three miles distant, on the bodies of other persons related to the deceased Jonathan Balls, who are supposed to have died from the effects of poison admi nes te red by him. The empannelling of another jury to inquire into this appalling affair is understood to be the result of very important communications from the Government officers to the coroner, the result of their in quiries having led to considerable suspicion as to other deaths in the family of Jonathan Balls. By the list handed to the coroner, by the officers, of the suspected victims, we find, in addition to the persons whose deaths were inquired into ..at the former inquest, that of Anna Peggs, a grandchild, who died on the 7th of June, 1839, in her eighth year, and was buried at InghamChapel, in the neighbourhood. From some unexplained circumstances it was, exhumed about three weeks after it had been interred, and Mr. Pilgrim held an inquest upon the body ; but the sur geon considering that it had died from fever, a verdict of natural dt ath was returned. The next on the list is Maria Green, daughter of Mrs. Green (another daughter of Jonathan Balls). It was fift,en months old, died on the 25th of December, 1836 ; William Green, also a grandchild, aged two years, died on the 31st of October, 1841 ; lastly, Martha Green, of the same family. She died when fifteen months old, after visiting old Balls' house, and was buried with the others in East Ruston church -yard. At nine o'clock the jury, composed of the principal gentry in the neighbourhood, met Mr. Pilgrim, the county coroner, at the public inn, East Ruston, and after the usual formalities were sworn, the bodies of the three children named Green, which had that morning been e,isinterred, being viewed by them, were handed over to the medical gentlemen for examination, but owing to the early hour the report was forced to be dis patched the result cannot be stated. It was the determination of the coroner, at the con clusion of the evidence in these cases to proceed to Ingham, and there enter into another inquiry on Mrs. Pegg's children, which are directed to be exhumed, and to undergo a post mortem examination. In reference to the death of the deceased Jonathan Balls' parents, who are suspected of having been poi soned, from the circumstance of its being recollected that they were attacked in a similar way as the children, little beyond that has been ascertained. They have been dead about twenty-two years; and it seems the informa tion received by the officials is of such a description as to prevent their placing much reliance upon it. The inquest was expected to occupy several days. CHARGE OF URDER AT THE THAMES POLICE-COURT. Yesterday, Benjamin Gibbins, a mild-looking man, a labourer, was brought before Mr. Broderip, charged with the wilful murder of a woman named Jane Sloman, otherwise Gibbins, with whom he had lived for some time in a state of concubinage. The case excited great interest from a rumour that was spread, and which bears with it an air of probability, that the life of the unfor tunate deceased was sacrificed by some parties engaged in carrying on illicit distillation, in the house where she met with her death, in consequence of her having threat ened to give information to the Excise. It appears there was a still at work in the tenement for some time, and that it was hastily removed on Monday night, about the time the woman met with her death. Edward Wanderer Townson, police-sergeant No. 8 K, an officer of great intelligence and activity, stated that at half-past eight that morning, he was sent for to the house, No. 6, Labour-in-vain-street, Shadwell Market, the residence of the prisoner. On arriving there, he went up stairs, and found a woman in the front room, a corpse, and Dr. Ross examining the body. Dr. Ross called his attention to a wound on the back part of the head, and also to three wounds on the right side of the face. At the same time, the medical gentleman ex pressed an opinion that the case was a very suspicious one. Shortly afterwards the prisoner came in. He asked him, in presence of Dr. Ross, what time he came home ? The prisoner replied that he returned to his home about seven o'clock, and found the deceased lying dead in the passage, at the foot of the stairs, with her head towards the door. Witness then observed a mat, folded up in the form of a pillow, which Dr. Ross said, in the presence of the prisoner, was in the -same state, and under the deceased's head when he was called into the house. There was a large stain of blood on it. Dr. Ross also called the attention of witness to some blood spattered upon the wall in the passage. There were also scratches on the wall as if the nails of some human hand had been scratching the wall. Witness also observed a spot of blood on the second stair from the passage, which appeared to have been smeared with the finger. On questioning the prisoner he stated that he was employed at Stepney fair during the whole of Mon day, in turning the wheel of a machine called an up-and down, with cars in the shape of boats, and that the de ceased came to him at five o'clock on Monday evening, and then appeared half drunk; that he came home about one o'clock in the morning, and knocked at the door for some considerable time, and could obtain no admittance, but that he heard a noise inside ; that he then went away, and went to a coffee-shop opposite Shadwell Church, where he remained until four o'clock ; went from there to the Duke of York public-house in the High-street, Shadwell, and stayed there till he went home at seven o'clock. The prisoner also stated that he was again unable to obtain admission to his dwelling, and borrowed a ladder of his next-door neighbour. and entered the house by a back window; that he went down stairs and found the body of the woman lying as before described, and that on op e ni ng th e s t reet door some women came in and said she was dead. Witness asked the prisoner if he had touched the body ; and he replied that he had merely lifted the feet. Witness then ob served some marks of blood on the prisoner's hands, and asked him how he accounted for it ? The prisoner said he had cut his hand on Monday, and it bled a good deal. Mr. Broderip—Did you examine his hand? Townson—Yes, I did. Mr. Broderip—Was there a wound upon it? Townson—Not a fresh wound, Sir. After I had looked at his hands I observed large spots of blood on the left arm of his jacket, and I asked him how he ac counted for them. He said he did not know, and I also observed several other marks of blood about the inside of the jacket, next the pocket, mid also several spots of blood on his waistcoat. I afterwards told him I should take him to the station-house, and he said the blood on his clothes was caused by his lifting the head of the deceased. I searched the house, but did not find any instrument likely to have caused the wound on the back part of the head. I should say there was a large spot of blood on the thigh of the trousers the man now has on. Mr. Daniel Ross, surgeon, of High-street, Shadwell, was called to the deceased a little after 7 o'clock that morning, He found the deceased lying in the passage of her dwelling, with her head supported by a roll of matting made into a sort of pillow. The head was towards the street-door, and the feet at the foot of the stairs. About two or three feet above the body there were two or three patches of coagulated blood on the wall facing the staircase. On either side of the patches of blood there were marks of scratches on the wall. After describing some other marks, which was merely a repetition of Townson's evidence, he said he had the body very carefully removed up stairs into the front room. His attention was first called to a wound at the back of the head, and afterwards to five marks or disco lourations of the skin on the right of the face. The wound on the back of the head was a jagged or lacerated wound, and somewhat triangular. Mr. Broderip—Can you tell whether it was done by any instrument or not? or by her falling against some o bl Mr. Ross—The wound was inflicted instru ment,bytainbslturnutmentorpass my finger above the upper part j the passage, to projecting surface. The bone was laid o id f u b i r t l a bare, o a u n t d a l n in c could h. had there, but as a f s e c a e r retafuin li examined the y ir ob t s h e e r r v e ed w t a h: a s n k y ir b ti l n o g od - i b o o l a . r hai r r a vomiting - there on the floor, r u e n e tle u p to o t t l a e i t r e s e detect either. the r body dy i s subsequently ilo,vl,n g. - • There evidently been some one rs and the e ffluvia of rum was very powerful.

Mr. Lindley, the clerk, asked if the deceased appeared to have been drinking ? Mr. Ross—Yes ; she smelt very strongly of liquor. Inspector Valentine, of the K division, said he had no further evidence to offer at present, but if the case was remanded he should be able to bring forward several witnesses, and most probably trace the parties who had worked and removed the still. CALEDONIAN RAILWAY. A special general meeting of the holders of new shares in this Company , for the purpose of construct .,, 13the following branch lines of railway, was held yes terday,at eleven o'clock, in the Thatch e d H ouse T avern, James's-street, in pursuance of the reso l u ti ons o f both Houses of Parliament, to consider the propriety of proceeding with the Bills empowering the formation of the same. The list of Bills is as follows:- 1. A Bill to enable the Caledonian Railway Company to deviate the line of the said railway in the vicinity of Carlisle. 2. A Bill to enable the Caledonian Railway Company to make branch railways to the town of Dumfries. 3. A Bill to enable the Caledonian Railway Company to make a branch railway to the town of Langholm. 4. A Bill to enable the Caledonian Railway Company to deviate certain portions of the Clydesdale Junction Railway. 5. A Bill to enable the Caledonian Railway Company to form certain branch and terminal railways in the vi• cinity of Glasgow. 6. A Bill to enable the Caledonian Railway Company to make a branch railway from the Clydesdale Junction Railway to the Glasgow, Garnkirk, and Coatbridge Railway at Dundyvan and Coatbridge. 7. A Bill to enable the Caledonian Railway Company to make branch railways from the Castlecary Branch of the Caledonian Railway to the Glasgow, Garnkirk, and Coatbridge Railway, and from the last-mentioned railway to the town of Airdrie. 8. A Bill to enable the Caledonian Railway Company to make certain branch railways in the county of Mid- Lothian. The meeting, which was numerously and respectably attended, was presided over by J. J. Hope Johnstone, Esq., M.P., the chairman of the board of directors. Among the gentlemen present besides the Hon. Chair man, we recognised Mr. P. M. Stewart, M.P., Mr. Hodg son, bI.P , &e., &c. The CHAIRMAN said, the first thing they bad to do was for the secretary to read the advertisement calling the meeting together. Mr. M&CKA.Y then read the announcement of the meeting, which he stated had been inserted in all the newspapers, and in the London and Edinburgh Gazettes, as required by the sessional order of Parliament. The CHAIRMAN proceeded to address the meeting to the following effect:—Gentlemen, it is now my duty to submit for your consideration the Bills, the names of which have been read to you, in order that your decision may be taken upon them. But before submitting them to you let me, in the first place, call your attention to the most unexpected deci sion come to by a House of Commons this year in regard to the scheme of the Glasgow and Dumfries Company, which was put forward last year against the Caledonian, but which was lost, after a full and fair investigation before Committees of both Houses of Parliament. From what had previously taken place I had good grounds to expect a decision of a different kind. I do not say so without sufficient grounds for the statement. You will recollect that, after a lengthened inquiry on the part of a commission appointed to investigate as to the best means of supplying the south of Scotland with railway accommodation, that a decision was given in favour of the Caledonian scheme. That decision was affirmed in the able report of the Board of Trade, and afterwards a Committee of the House of Commons and subsequently a Committee of the House of Lords ratified that decision. They de clared that on public grounds the Caledonian Railway's claims for preference were well founded. Since then I see no reason why that decision, on the faith of which the Caledonian Company was incorporated, should be departed from by the admission of a competing line—a line, too, which after the most ample and fair investiga tion was rejected last year is incompatible with the Caledonian Railway. This is the posi tion in which we are now placed, the Bill which was last year rejected having now received the sanction of a Committee of the House of Commons. But we must not rest satisfied with that decision — (Hear, hear)—or allow ourselves to remain in the posi tion in which we have been se unjustly placed, as I can not but think, when the case is more fully considered, that it will be seen the decision is not such a one as we were in justiee and equity entitled to. I may, however, observe, that if we have failed before the Committee of the House of Commons in opposition to the Glasgow and Dumfries scheme, we have prevailed against another opponent that threatened to take a con- siderable portion of our traffic I mean the North _. _ _ British extension, from Hawick to Carlisle. We stand in as favourable a position as we could desire, as far as that project is concerned, the Committee having de cided that the preamble of their Bill was not proved. With reference to the Bills now submitted, some it will not be necessary to proceed with; only I think it will be better that the whole be agreed to now than postponed. We should then be in a position to proceed with all of them at any time, should circumstances require it. I , think that all of these branches are essential to the prosperity of the Caledonian system ; and some of them have been brought forward more as a protection than from the expectation of large remu neration. Last year we proposed a branch from the main line of the Caledonian Railway to Dumfries, which we thought would give the necessary facilities to that town. We thought ene branch which would not have cost more than 100,0001., and with the trifling detour of only seven miles, would have been satisfactory, but the Committee decided differently. In order, therefore, to meet their objections we brought forward the present scheme, to unite Dumfries with the main line of the Caledonian Railway, by two branches involving a con siderable expense. We have also considered a deviation in the main line near to Carlisle necessary, in order to ob tain an entrance into a commodious central station that is proposed to be erected there for the accommodation of this railway in conjunction with the Lancaster and Car• lisle, the Newcastle and Carlisle, and the Maryport and - Carlisle Railways. Conceiving that such a central sta tion will be of the greatest advantage to the public, we have proposed the deviation in question. We also pro pose, about nine miles from Carlisle, to take a branch from the main line to Langholm, both as a means of protection and to afford accommodation to a considerable population. We likewise propose a small deviation on the Clydesdale Junction Railway, which is necessary in consequence of a decision of the Elouse of Commons last year. There is a Bill also involving considerable opera tions in the neighbourhood of Glasgow, which are found necessary to connect the Clydesdale Junction with the Barrhead and Neilston and Glasgow and Greenock Rail ways, a connexion that will be of gl'eat advantage, embracing also a scheme for crossing the River Clyde, so as to establish a station in the very centre of the city. This Bill has been agreed to by the Committee of the House of Commons, with the exception of the latter part, for crossing the Clyde, which is not to be per mitted without the consent of the Admiralty. The Committee would only sanction the preamble of the Bill, subject to such approval. At present the Admiralty are not prepared to sanction the crossing of the river, and we will, therefore, have to confine our opera tions, at present, to the south bank. I may here remark that the Ayr and the Glasgow and Edinburgh Railway Companies had a project before the same Com mittee for crossing the river lower down, but that was rejected, so that with regard to the crossing we stand at least upon equal terms with them. If the Admiralty at any future period may consider our plan for crossing the river unobjectionable, or we may devise some means of effecting that object that will meet with their ap- Proval, then we sh a ll b e i n a pos i t i on to g i ve a most central and comman d ing station in the very heart of the city. We have also Bill s for short bran c h es t o connec t the e G a s r e n e k t t i s k h RaCilewnatyraland Railway, adjoining district with so as the large northern traffic o n to the lin t e o . br T in h : last Bill from illis the fr terminus at p urp ose p inb o u r r effecting j at Granto n — a pi er constructed upon the dh rge t s o t s t c h a e le p : i in r order to accommodate the shipping , and through which, by . the proposed branch, we shall be' able to . afford every facility to the shipm t e e n re t ' a o k f e co th al . and other mineral traffic.

In conclusion, allow me to observe that, under existing circumstances, you . should distinctly remember that as a means of protec as well as a means of bringing traffic to the main line, it is your interest to sanction them all.—(Cheers.) The SECRETARY then read the heads of the several Bills submitted for the approval of the meeting. Mr. VANDERWALL said, before the sense of the meet ing was taken on the Bills, he wished the meeting would agree to a resolution authorising the payment of say 4 per cent. on the paid-up stock. He believed a proposi tion of that kind was agreed to tO the Caledonian Ex tension meeting yesterday. The CHAIRMAN thought it was an important question, and required consideration. The directors, he believed, were willing to take the matter into their consideration.

Mrs. Mortimer entertains not the slightest doubt but that in this room Garrick first saw the light, its tradition never having been questioned ; she also believes that th e prem i ses f orme d e i t h e r wholly or partially the Angel Inn—if this could be verified, the matter would be plac e d b eyond a doubt, as it is unquestionable that Garrick was bor n at the Angel Inn, Hereford. —Hereford Times.

The prisoner on being called on for his defence made a very long statement, and said he left home at silt o'clock on Monday morning and did not enter his dwell ing again till seven o'clock next morning, when he effected an entrance by means of a ladder raised against the back of his house, and obtained admission by the first floor window. He was engaged during the whole of Monday in fitting out an up and-down, near Womb well's menagerie in Stepney Fair, and turning the crank. The deceased and her mother visited the fair during the day, and he put them into one of the boats of the up and-down he was attending. At five o'clock the same afternoon, he saw Jane Sloman in the fair again, and she was then the worse for liquor. He bend her to go home, and not distract his attention from the work he was upon, as he was fearful of receiving an injury from the crank he was turning. The prisoner then went on to state very circumstantially, that he finished his work at twelve o'clock on Monday night, and that after obtaining some refreshment he went home, and knocked at the door, and no one answered. He made several ineffectual attempts to enter the house, and the neighbours saw and heard him knock ing at the door. The first time he knocked at the door was between one and two o'clock, and the neighbour s said, " Who's there?" He told them he was very tired, and should obtain a lodging elsewhere, and as be was leaving the spot, theeighbours exclaie, " My she has fallen dow n stairs." After m visditing several coffee-shops and public houses he finally got in et t he window by means of a ladder. He went down stairs, and saw the body lying at the foot of the staircase. H e opened the door and the neighbours entered. At the desire of the neighbours he raised her head, and rested it on his lap, and the bystanders said she was dead. H e immediately proceeded to the deceased's mother, and it formed her her daughter was dead. The prisoner , although very minute and circumstantial in detailing th e i places he had called at, an d th e re f res h men t he ha d swallowed, did not account very satisfactorily for his time between twelve and half-past one o'clock, the time he first reached home; nor dhe ive any explant,tion of the circumstance he mention id ed, g that the neighbours told him the woman had fallen down stairs, of vrbich, according to his own showing, ho took no notice. , Mr. Broderip, on the conclusion of the pristrier s statement, said it was his duty to remand him till to morrow (Thursday), and he was forthwith sent avraY in the van to Westminster Bride well.
