EYEBROWS, MOUS'FACHES, and WHIS KERS produced in a few weeks by using an essential Spirit drawn from choice Aromatic Herbs, the peculiar properties of which are known only to the Inventor, and although perfectly inno cent in itself, will produce new Hair on bald places, caused by weak ness of constitution, or where Nature has not bestowed this orna ment of the human figure. It has been known to many of the Nobi :ity and Gentry upwards of eleven years, some of whom the Inven tor most sincerely thanks for their attestation of its merits, in the certainty of restoring Hair and giving it additional lustre and strength. Its virtues are manifold—it prevents the Hair from fall ing off or turning gray ; a few drops on the crevrn of the head will remove the most distressing pain in that part produced by or at tended with faintness ; and is acknowledged by the Faculty as the only specific known to cure that disease of the head called Porigo de calvans (which causes the Hair to come off in patches); a few applications remove dandruff. This wonderful discovery is fully ex plained in a pamphlet, containing testimonials to its regenerating new Hair upon bald places, entitled, " Three Minutes' _advice on the Growth and Preservation of the Human Hair," by W Drimstone, Inventor of the Aromatic Regenerator for the Growth r. ithe Human Hair, and a certain preventative of headache and fainting ; also a toilet perfume—bearing the Inventor's signature, Herbary, High gate, near London.

The cost of construc tion was. 860,0004 It was propOsed to cross the river Ouse by means of swing -bridges. There was very little opposition on the part of the landowners. Cross-examined by Sergeant WIIANGIIAM, on behalf of the London and York—There would be a delay of sixteen mi nutes with every train at the swing-bridges, when the bridges were required to be swung for the purpose of allowing vessels to pass. Cross-examined by Mr. ITILDYARD, for -the Eastern Counties—The line from Selby to York, as proposed by the Eastern Counties, has as favourable gradients as his own line. At this stage of the procedings the Noble Chairman inti mated that their Lordships thought an insuperable objec tion to this line was found in its proposal to cross the Ouse, as there was no security to the public that the Lords of the Admiralty might not also require the two additional bridges proposed to be constructed another part of the Ouse to be also swing bridges, and unles the counsel could bring forward evidence of a nature to remove that uncertainty, he thought it useless to proceed with the further examination of the witness. Mr. Rams re-examined the witness, but nothing material Was elicited, and their Lordships then adjourned. SOUTH WALES RAILWAY. A special meeting of the shareholders in this undertaking was held yesterday at the Paddington Station of the great Western Railway, in compliance with the sessional -ords for - the peirposto of taking into consideration the drafts of the following Bills now before Parliament : "A Bill for completing the line of the South Wales Rail way, and to authorise the construction of an extension and certain alterations of the said railway, and certain Branch Railways in connexion therewith ;" by which Bill power is proposed to be conferred on the said South Wales Railway Company to make certain deviations in the line of railway as now authorised, and to extend the same, and to enable the Company to rent or purchase the Forest of Dean Railway, and the Severn and Wye Railway and Canal, and for other purposes. " A Bill for making a Railway from Gloucester to the Monmouth and Hereford Railway, and to the South Wales Railway at Awre, to be called the Glou cester and Dean Forest Railway ;" by which Bill 'power is proposed to be conferred on the South Wales Railway , Company, to subscribe towards the said intended Glou cester and Dean Forest Railway, and to purchase or lease the same. " A Bill for making a Railway from Llangynwyd to Margam by a Company to be called the Llynvy Valley Railway Company ; ' by which Bill power is proposed to be conferred on the South Wales Railway Company to purchase or lease the said last-mentioned intended railway. " A Bill for making Railways to connect the Saunders foot Railway with the South Wales Railway, with the har bour of Saundersfoet, and with the town of Tenby, to be called the Tenby, Saundersfoot, and South Wales Rail way, and for other purposes ;" by which Bill powers are proposed to be conferred on the South Wsles Railway Company of purchasing or leasing the undertaking by the said last-mentioned Bill proposed to be authorised, and of raising money for the completion of such pur chase, or for executing the works therein referred to. " A Bill for making a railway from the South Wales Railway, at or near the town of Neath, to Merthyr Tydfil, with branches, to be called the Vale of Neath Railway ;" by which Bill powers are proposed to be conferred on the South Wales Railway Company of purchasing or leasing the undertaking by the said last-mentioned Bill proposed to be authorised, and of raising money for such purposes. The chair was taken at 12 o'clock precisely. The SECRETARY (Mr. Armstrong) having read the notices convening the meeting, C. RUSSEL, Esq. (chairman) said that the object of the shareholders having been called together was in consequence of the sessional orders of Parliament. The South Worcester proposed to cross the Severn ; the Committee of the House of Commons, however, thought proper to prohibit that mode of crossing, although fully recommended by the engineer of the Admiralty. The other alternative for crossing the Severn was that offered by the Gloucester and Forest of Dean Railway, of which they now proposed to avail themselves. The Committee decided that the agreement made with the Brilhip Vale Railway should be clogged with a condition, that they should purchase the Severn and Wye Railway. The committee of management, however, could not think of complying with this unprecedented request, and have, therefore, thought proper to abandon the Bill for the present. The tunnel near Malvern had WO been thrown out by the Committee. These three schemes having been r e jected, the only course left for the CoMmittee was to obtain a line from the south of Wales, in connexion with the metropolis, by the way of Glou cester. This scheme the committee of management had now obtained by means of the Bills which would be submitted to the meeting. The SECRETARY then read the abstract and short titles of the South Wales Railway, Gloucester and Forest of Dean Railway, Llynvi Valley Railway, Tenby and Saundersfoot Railway, and Vale of Neath Railway. The C [UHLMAN then read the resolution approving of these Bills. W. ROCHE, Esq. proposed, and Mr. IRONMONGER se conded the resolution, which was carried unanimously. The CHAIRMAN then said, that it would be necessary, in his opinion, to add a clause to the resolution just passed, which would be to the following effect :—" That this meeting authorises the directors to agree to such alterations in the said Bills as may be deemed expedient during their progress through Parliament." This resolution was moved accordingly, and unani mously agreed to. Mr. ROACH then said that as it wanted a few minutes to one o'clock (the time announced for the second meeting), he should feel obliged to the Chairman if he would briefly . state what were the intentions of the 'directors with respect to, and the progress of, the nei works, because in the country the general opinion was that there was little or.no progress made in them, and in fact some despaired of their ever being completed. That, however, was not his opinion, but he was satisfied of this, that the people of the country held that opinion. The CHAIRMAN said he could assure the meeting that it was the intention of the directors to proceed with the works in question with as much rapidity as they pos sibly could, consistent with the general interest of the proprietors. He might state that the directors had already entered into three contracts—two with respect to the, works at Newport, ex tending over a length Of six and three-quarter miles, and another with regard to Swansea, which extended over a length of two miles. One of the contracts at Newport embraced a tunnel. Now those three con tracts embraced the heaviest of the works on the line ; they were, in fact, the key to the whole. It was hardly necessary to say that the directors deemed it prudent to complete the heavy works before they entered upon those of minor im portance. However, he could assure the Honourable Proprietor that every attention should be paid to his suggestions, and care would be taken that i the works should be prosecuted with the utmost activity. Mr. ROACH again begged to assure the on. Chair man that his only object in alluding to the progress of the works was, that . the people in the country mi g ht have the benefit of the Chairman's statement on the sult et. r. Hun FREY—I wish to ask, Dir. Chairman, whether those Bills limit the South Wales lino to any particular gauge. The CHAIRMAN 7 --I believe there is no clause whatever of that sort. The South Wales is cemmitted, you know, by the Bill that they have already obtained—they are a broad gauge railway. I should think, as a matter of reaf on and common sense, that that will be the gauge of every railway that may flow into it. Mr. HUMYREY thought that, as the Bill was about to be altered, it would be well now to insert a clause giving the proprietors power to alter the gauge as they might hereafter think desirable. The CHAIRMAN said that the question of gauge would be settled by Parliament before these Bills could receive the sanction of the Legislature ; and, of coarse, what ever determination they might come to must guide the course of the proprietors. At the same time, he must observe, that he could not for one moment entertain the notion that Parliament would compel them tO alter their present broad gauge. Mr. HUMFREY begged to differ from the Chairman. The CHAIRMAN—However, before these fills can be brought to a conclusion, we shall know the decision both of the Government and the Legislature upon that question. lam informed that there is no clause in the South Wales Act that binds us to any gauge. As it still wanted twenty minutes of the time an nounced in the advertisement for the holding of the second meeting, the meeting adjourned until that time. At one o'clock The CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD again took the chair, and said that they were assembled for the special purpose of carrying into effect the sessional orders of both Houses of Parliament of this year. Now by those sessional orders they would be aware that it was required that a public meeting of a new railway com pany should be convened, at which there should be re presented, either in person or by proxy, one-third of the shareholders of the company, and that of that one-third there should be a majority of two-fifths at least in favour of the prosecution of the scheme before the Le vislature would sanction it. The capital of the South Wales Company now amounted to 3,000,0001. ;. the quantity, therefore, that must he represented at the meeting was 1,000,000/. Now, in proxies, they had re ceived the notes of the holders of shares amounting to 1,289,2501., independently of the shares of the proprietors who were then present, in favour of the scheme. There could be no question, therefore, that they were a properly-constituted meeting. After the ob servations that he had already made at the PRICE 513. previous meeting it would, perhaps, be unnecessary for him to make any further statements upon the present occasion. He then read the resolution approv . ing of the prosecution of the works. • In reply to a SHAREHOLDER, The CHAIRMAN said that the Committee had ex punged the clause with reference to the Severn,: and they would now have to go round by Gloucester, which , would involve an additional outlay, as the line would be 17 miles longer then originally intended. • • . Mr. TURNER said that he should like to have some information from the Chairman, directors, or engineers, as to the desirableness of going forward with the pro posed Bills. Since the last report of the directors the shares had fallen in value, and he for one was, therefore. of opinion that the schemes were not approved of by the public, and would not prove profitable. The CHAIRMAN having explained the reason of the fall in the value of the shares (observing at the same time that the very same circumstance had happened to. every new railway company in the kingdom), and made other statements. Mr. TURNER said he was now quite satisfied of the desirableness of prosecuting the schemes with vigour, and he sh ou ld therefore move the resolution proposed by the Chairman. The resolution, having been seconded, ands few deatild tory observations having been made by some shareholdeis,- was put and carri e d, th ere b e i ng in favour of the schemed ' 1,289,2501., and against, 3,2501. • Thanks were then voted and unanimously passed to the Chairman, which having been acknowledged,: the meeting separated. . . . . GRAVESEND AND ROCHESTER RAILWAY. A general meeting of this Company was called for yes terday morning, at the George and Vulture Tavern, but it was only held pro forma, and the business stands ad journed till the next general meeting, which is to be held on the 17th inst., when business of importance is to be brobght forward. VALE OF NEATH RAILWAY. SPECIAL MEETING. A special meeting of the proprietors and shareholders of this line took place this yesterday, at three o'clock, at the Company's Offices, 449, West Strand ; Louis Vigors in the chair. The meeting was called in pursuance of the ses sional orders, and it was unanimous in assenting to the further proceeding with the Bill in Parliament. The CHAIRMAN observed that the Bill bad been read a second time, and would go into Committee on the 15th of the present month. There were 10,796 shares present and the whole number of shares issued 275,000, so that the meeting was perfectly legal. IREL AND. DUBLIN, JUNE 1.--The season of spring has entirely passed e way, and summer has suddenly come upon us with more than ordinary maturity and intenseness. Excessive heat at this early period is, however, not by any means an unprecedented circumstance, and it is well remembered and often mentioned by aged persons, that the few first days of June, '9S (a memorable period on other accounts), were perhaps the very hottest ever known in Ireland. NATIONAL ASSOCIATION. At one o'clock, at the instance of Mr. O'Connell, Mr. 11. Grattan, M.P., took the chair. Mr. GRATTAN, as Chairman, deprecated disunion among repealers, and cautioned them against "danger ous enemies," both at home and abroad, especially when they had to contend against a Ministry, whom he de nounced as " desperate gamblers." The only reason, he said, why they bad not pounced upon the repealers, was because the repealers had not violated the law. The Hon. Gentleman then launched out into a great variety of subjects, none of them, however, either very new, or set forth by any new lights. Mr. Creagh acted as secretary, in the absence of Mr. Ray. Mr. O'CoxNELL then rose, and was loudly cheered. He would begin with the money.—(Cheers.) He had to read a letter from the Archbishop of Tuam—(Cheers)-- and as there were many compliments to himself in it, ho must request of the audience to. blush for him.— (Laughter.) He then read the letter, which, including the 'Archbishop's own subscription of 31., enclosed a con tribution to the funds of the Association of 1301. (Cheers.) This was the amount of a collection made from among the clergy of the Arch-dioceses. There were many passages in the epistle of very decided clattery to wards the Liberator. Mr. O ' CONNELL—I have another Bishop for you.— (Hear.) Here is a letter from Dr. Cantwell, Bishop of Meath, with a sum of 51. The Hon. Gentleman then read the letter. There were several other letters ;—the next from Dr. Afaginnon, the Roman Catholic Bishop of Derry, for warding a contribution of 15/. (Cheers.) There was a letter from Wexford, which menaced certain deprivation to all the representatives of that county, who would not take the Repeal P/edge. There was also a letter from a gentleman , who - desired his name not to be mentioned, with a donation of 60/. Mr. O'Connell, however, proclaimed the gentleman's name and address to' be a Mr. Francis Farrell, of North Anne-street. The money, he said, was handed in by a very beautiful and accomplished young lady, and he pro posed three cheers for her.—(Cheers.) Aft , r some time, Mr. O'CONNELL rose and said he was about to propose a tribute of national gratitude to William Smith O'Brien.—(Great cheering.) He had been reading letters very complimentary to himself, and he was not ashamed to read them, because he had long laboured for his religion, and those who had suffered disfranchisement on that account, as well as himself. As a repealer, he belonged to no sect, but was the advocate of Irishmen of every.perstiasion. Now Mr. W. S. O'Brien was an advocate and a p a t r i o t of th e - same class.—(Hear, He had come to their help at the most critical moment —in the hour of peril. Others would join them in their prosperity, but he was the friend inneed.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. O'Connell then enlarged upon the merits of Mr. O'Brien, particularly as a working, practical' men. lie felt the greatest pleasure in proclainnig the great debt of gratitude they owed him. He had spent five-and twenty days, in prison for their sakes. Would they, not all join in paying a tribute JO ?—(" We will, we will.") It was false to shy that there was any division among them. He had no jealousy of Mr. O'Brien. Nay, he would be delighted to see him their leader.—(Hear, hear.) The Hon. Gentlethan then read a resolution of confidence in Mr. O'Brien, arid also one to request his attendance at a public banquet; to be given in his ho.. nour, and also to give him a grand procession and re ception on his entrance into,Dublin on the day of the banquet. —(Repeated cheers.) The names of the Com mittee to take charge of the affairs were then read. They included all the leading personages of both sections of the repeal cause. Mr. O'CONNELL next proposed that Mr. O'Brien's fees, on being discharged from custody,'should, with Mr. O'Brien's permission, be paid out of the funds of the Association, which was agreed to. The Learned Gen tleman next read a lecture to some Liverpool Repealer, who had made use of some dangerous lanpage at a public Meeting. He utterly condemned all violence, or violations of law of any sort. Mr. STEEL, as a London repeal warden, requested that his London brethren would take warning by this proceeding. Mr. O'CONNELL—I believe I am making too many speeches to-day.—(No, no.) He had to speak of thepros pects of the repeal cause. He would begin with the Coercion Bill. He denounced the discussion' which ft had drawn forth in the House of Lords. They did not forget Lord Melbourne's insulting letter, nor that " coxcomb Lord." Lord St. Germans. In the Commons they had for nine nights fought against the _Bill—and never was there better speaking on the side of Ireland. They had ob tained the greatest 'moral victory over the Government. He now called for the attendance of every Irish Mem ber in the House of Commons on Monday next. They would never allow the Government to carry the Bill— not before Christmas, at all events.—(A. laugh.) In other respects the Government promised some useful measures. If the tenant-right were legally established, it would be a' g rea t b oon to Ireland. The Bill reettict ing the landlord's power of ejectment, would also be a most useful measure, as would that reducing, the stamp duty on leases. But to what did they owe even the promise of these thingb 'Why, to the Conciliation Hall and the re pealers.--4Cheers.) 'The repeal rent for the week was then announced to be 355 L 16s. 5d., and at a quarter to three o'clock the meeting adjourned to Monday next. EARLY POTATOES.—A dish of early potatoes was dug on the 27th ult,, in the garden at Castle Toward, Argyle.- shire, which had not been forced in any way.

THE ARMY. Eighty-three gentlemen have been gazetted as 'cotnets and ensigns in the army during the preceding month, thirty-four of whom have purchased their commissions, varying from 1,2601. to 4501. each, and amounting in the aggregate to no less a sum than 21,9401. The following non-commissioned officers have been promoted during the month, and have received the usual bounty of 100/. to assist them in their outfits : Quarter-master Sergeant J. Dunlop, to be ensign in the 76th Foot. Sergeant-major G. T. Whitaker, to be ensign in the 10th Foot. Sergeant J. M'Cabe, to be ensign in the 18th Foot. Sergeant-major J.

The rates of insurance from Liverpool to New York and New Orleans were yesterday (Monday) 255. and 355. per cent. on British vessels, and 60s. and 105 s. on American. This difference arises from apprehensions (real or pretended) that the war between the United States and Mexico will have the effect of inducing the Mexican Government to issue letters of marque against American commerce. We are very much inclined to agree with the author of the accompanying communica tion that these fears are unfounded, and to believe that even if the Government.of.Mexico was disposed to issue them, it would find no one disposed to take them. Our correspondent says : "Much apprehension has been excited f.m.)ngst our merchants that commerce with New Orle:.:is and the parts in the Gulf of Mexico would be interfered with by letters of marque issued by the i'llexican Government ; but it appears that such apprehensions are ground:ess, as the Mexicans have only two accessible ports in the. Gulf—Vera Cruz and Tampico—both of which would be blockaded by United States ships of war, and from which any capture would be cut off. Moreover, the United States have treaties with the following countries, by which the subjects and citizens of each are prohi bited, in case of war, from assisting or cu-operating in hostilities with the enemy, or accepting commissions or letters of marque, viz.:—France, England, Spain, the Brazils, Netherlands, Columbia, Venezuela, Peru, Bo livia, Chili, Denmark, Prussia, and Sweden; and the maritime power of Mexico herself is too insignificant to create any alarm. It is true that the New York in surance offices are charging 4i per cent, to ports in the Gulf of Mexico, but, with the enormous amount to risk there, if there were any real danger, this amount would be utterly inadequate. The fact is that thi underwriters, like all other people, wish to make money, and make the most of the fears of the public, whether they be real or imaginary. —Liverpool Times. THE PACHA OF TUNIS'S PRESENTS TO HER MI- JasTY.—ln addition to the seven splendid Arabian horses, six gazelles, two ostriches, and a fine young lion, three years old, the remainder_of the gifts from his Highness the Bey of Tunis arrived on Tuesday, and were received in the court-yard of Mivart's Hotel, from Southampton, and afterwards taken by the gentlemen of the embassy to Buckingham Palace.

HOSPITAL FOR CONSIMPTIoN AND DISEASES OF THE CWEST, Cniukaa.—On Saturday evening last, the annual general meeting of the governors and subscribers to this charity was held at the Central Board-room, 20, Great Marlborough street, Regent-street, the Rev. Robert Mont gomery, A.M., in the chair. The committee of manage ment, the auditors, the medical committee, and other officers of the institution hasintheen elected, the secretary proceeded to read the finance report of the building com mittee of the new hospital at Brompton. From the state ment contained therein, it appears that the west wing and a portion of the main body, including the entrance por tico of the institution, are now completed, the amount of contract for which was 11,762/. The cost of inclosing the ground with iron-railing fixed in granite, together with other necessary expenses connected with the hospital amounted to 1,6841. To meet these sums, amounting in all to 13,446 L, only 9,134/. has been received, leaving the liabili tiesthe amount 0(5,3121. In aid of the Liquidation o h r os t phir.de t b o t a grand fancy fair and bazaar will be held on the 18th of the present month. The bazaar, it was stated, would, by the permission of the authorities, be held " o l f a the on in the Royal College. Gardens, Chelsea, and would be honoured by the presence of many of the fair nobility of England. The ground on which the new building stands is a square of 300 feet, containing about two acres ; the quadrangle is in width about 100 feet; the whole frontage lacing the road, 180 feet ; the depth of the wing erected is 'eo feet • the height of each story is 14 feet ; hei g ht o f th e Building; 'about 45 feet ; height of the tower, nearly 70 feet. Other business of a routine nature having been transacted, the thanks of the court were voted to the Rev. Chairman, and the meeting broke up. FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE GREENWICH RAILWAY. On Tuesda • afternoon, as the train was proceeding from Ureenwich to London, a young man named Charles White, an engine cleaner, in the employ of the South-Eastern Rail way Company, fell from the platform beneath the carriages, and before 'he could be extricated from his perilous situa tion, he was 'So dreadfully nnitilated that his life was de spaired 'of. On - Ms being taken up it was discovered his legs were broken in two places, besides other injuries of a dreadful nature. He was removed to St. Thomas's Hos pital, where he expired in great agony shortly after. FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENTS AT STEPNEY FAIR. - On Monday evening, about ten o'clock, a lad, named Ayres, about ten years of age, was in Stepney Fair, assisting to turn one of those machines, called "'A merr y. go. round, " which revolves upon an axis, when his foot'got in between the iron work, and before the nrachilie could be stopped his leg was turn off in a frightful manner. T& poor little fellow was taken to "the London Hospital, where he lies in a precarious state. The medical officers of the institution give very little hopes of his recovery. Yesterday afternoon another aacident occurred, in the same fair, to afemale, who was thrown out of one of the swings and broke her leg in several places. PEDESTRIANISM. — On Monday the following matches of pedestrianism took place at Stepney. The first, a seven mile walking match between Hall, of Billingsgate, Jacques, of London, and Willett (the one-armed walker), was well contested throughout ; Willett had half a minute start, and before he covered the first mile Hall drew on him, and kept the lead till within 300 yards of the winning post, when he was seized with an odd something which prevented farther effort.
