RAILWAY IN 'ELLIGENCE. SHREWSBURY AND BIRMINGHAM. SUREWSAURY, SATURDAY EVENING.—Th, fire; general mee ing of the shareholders was held to-day at the Lon Hotel, Shrewsbury, Mr. 0. Gore, ALP., in the chair. There was a full attendance. Mr. KNoX, the secretary, read the directors' report as follows:-4t is with much satisfaction that the directors meet the proprietors for the first time under the provi• sions of the Act of Incorporation, which obtained the royal assent on the 3d of August, 1846, after a strenuous opposition during two sessions of Parliament, on the part of the promoters of competing schemes. In conse • quence of the period to which the contest was prolonged in the last session, and which, if an arrangement had not been effected, would have prevented the Bills of this and other companies being introduced into the House of Lords in sufficient time to comply with the resolutions of that House, and whereby Shropshire and the South Staffordshire mining- districts might have been deprived for ano'her year of the railway accommodation so much desired, and the shareholders in the several undertakings put to great additional expense and anxiety, the direc tors of this comp any, with the concurrence of other parties in friendly alliance with them, and with the sanction of the Committee of the House of Commons, suggested terms of arrangement by which the ob ject of this company, in securing one conti nuous and unbroken line of railway ceminunication between Shrewsbury and Birmingham, and thence to London, will be obtained. The report then proceeds to state the terms of arrangement approved of by the Group Committee. Their substance, so far as the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Company, as between Wolverhampton and arnaingnam, the main line prop. sed through Tip ton, Oldbury, and Sanethwick, was sanctioned, wish a branch to Dudley, and will be executed under the sepa parate powers of the Act of Incorporation of the " Bir mingham, Wolverhampton, and Stour Valley Railway Company," at the joint expense and for the joint benefit of the London and North-Western, this company, the Birmingham Canal, and the public, in four equal parts; each party being represented on the board of manage ment by an equal number of directors, as between Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton. The following ar rangement with the Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire Junction Company was proposed and agreed to:—That the line of railway from Shrews bury to Wolverhampton, with the branch to Coalbrook dale, laid down by the engineers of this company, should be carried out and executed; that the power should be retained to make such portion of the line of the other company as by a sh in diversion out of the Shrewsbury and Birmingham line near Wolverhampton, might, if requisite, enable a station to be formed on a lower level at Wolverhampton, and that the capital, as between Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton, sh mild be found equally by both companies and the direction formed, and here after continued, of two-thirds elected by the threwsbury and Birmingham shareholders, and one-third by those of the Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Stafford shire Company, which terms of amalgamation have been ratified by the shareholders of the latter company at their first public meeting. As between Shrewsbury and Wel lington, the line is to be formed at the joint expense, and be the joint property of this company and of the Shropshire Railway and Canal Company; and the latter company is also o have power to run over the line of this company, and to use their station at Wolver hampton upon terms eo. be hereafter settled. As . the Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire Junction shareholders are interested only as between Shrewsbury - and Wolverhampton, and not in the share of this company between Wolverhampton and Birming ham, two classes of shares are to be created; the one, Cass A, for the Shrewsbury' and Birmingham share holders, and Class B for those interested only between Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton. The amalgamation as to capital which was effected in December last with the Dudley and M ,deley Company was then made known by advertisements and circulars to the share holders. By the arrangement then made a sum of 110,000/. was transferred to the credit of this company, and by the terms of the amalgamation a emu of about 25,0001. will have been obtained when the affairs of the Dudley and Madeley Company are finally wound up, towards the expenditure previously incurred by this company. The next topic adverted to in the report was the capital of the company, which is fixed by the Act at 1,300,0001., divided into 52,000 shares (Class A) of 25/. each, with power to borrow any sum rot exceeding one third of the capital when one-half of the sum has been paid up. In order to comply with the Act, the present shares have been reduced in the proportion of fire shares with 2/. 103. paid on each, to four shares havinc , 31. paid, the surelus of 2s. per share to be returned with the new certificates when they are issued. In order to carry out the amalgamation with the Shrewsbury, Wolves-. hampton, and South Staffordshire Company, it is provided by the Act of Incorporation, that it shall be lawful for the company to reduce the nominal value of the shares in this company to such an extent, and to create such number of new shares of such amount as may be necessary for ensuring the shareholders of the other company an equal participation in the capital between Shrews bury and Wolverhampton. The directors, therefore, propose to create 52.000/. shares of the Class B, of the nominal value of 101. each for the shareholders of the Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire Junction Company. When the amalgamation with the Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire shall have been completed, the amount of calls on shares of Class A will be restricted, so that the united capital will not exceed the total amount authorised to be raised by the Act. The directors have determined to proceed with the works with all convenient speed. They hope to make arrangements, and to obtain possession of the land between Wellington and Oakengates, and to let the contract for that portion of the line in the course of the present year. This forms the heaviest part of the work, as it includes both tunnels. The other contracts will be let in sufficient time to have the whole of the works finished and the line opened contemporaneously through out from Shrewsbury to Wolverhampton. The plans and specifications are also directed to be prepared for the station at Wolverhampton; and as the directors have been in possession of a portion of the land for some time, they expect soon to let this contract, and to commence the erection of a station sufficiently commodious for the railways centering in Wolverhampton; and it is hoped that the superior advantages of the high level will be,' proved such as to render unnecessary the construction of any other station. Specifications of the rails and chains are ready to be sent to various manufacturers, and the contract for these will be forthwith entered into. The directors are glad to state that, with the calls which must be paid upon class B, so as to contribute an equal amount to the shares of class A to the amalgamated scheme, there will be funds sufficient to enter into and prosecute the contracts referred to, without making any call on the present shareholders, payable within the twelve months from the passing of the Act. The directors have had under consideration the question of extensions, or branches, from the present line. At present they have only directed their engineer to make the necessary sur veys fur an extension of the line from the station at Wolverhampton to the Grand Junction line at Willen hall, thereby effecting a communication from Shropshire towards Walsall and Lichfield; as the IBirmingharn, Wolverhampton, and Stour Valley line forms a junction with the Grand Junction line north of Wolverhampton both will supply the place of the Showhill and Portobello branch, not prosecuted through Parliament. The direc tors have also in contemplation to extend the Coslbrouk, dale branch, so as to make it beneficial to the district, and with which a convenient junction might be made of she line fr in Dudley to Madeley, which tee directors of this company feel under a pledge to prosecute in the next practicable session of Parliament. In the short period which has elapsed since the passing of the Act it has been found impossible to collect all the accounts and adjust their settlement, but an abstract of the receipts and expenditure has been drawn up. The directors ex pected that alter taking credit for the sum received from the Dudley and Madeley Company, and the proportion of the expenses incurred by this company, both in the last and preceding session of Parliament, in re-psct of that part of the line between Wolverhampton and Bir mingham which is to be repaid to this company by the Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and Stour Valley Com pany, the preliminary expenses up to the date of the Act of incorporation will be less than 10s. per share, which, considering the severe struggle that has been carried on since the early part of 1844, and the value of the undertaking secured, the directors trust will be most satisfactory to the proprietary. The directors have taken power in the Act to allow four per cent. on the deposit and on all future calls. Interest on the deposits will be paid from the respective elates of registration, and shareholders wishing to anticipate calls will be al lowed interest on all amounts paid in advance. The shares registered amount to 47,000, and, iu order to complete the register, the remainder will now be put into the names of the original allottees. The report concluded by recommending the appointment of di rectors and auditors, and the continuance in office of the present secretary, Mr. George Knox. The SECRETARY then proceeded to read an abstract of receipts and expenditure to August, 1846: — RECEIPTS. 52,000 shares Class A, amount paid 31. Return to be made on 68,000 scrip 6,500 At credit of capital account £162,500 EXPENDITURE. Preliminary expenses as published in report of October 8, 1845 .

The report congratulated the shareholders on the success that had attended their application for powers to construct a line through the densely popu lated and important mineral district of South Stafford shire, and stated that the directors, during the progress of the two Bills which were presented to Parliament, con•idered it to be for the interest of the compat y to withdraw, until the ensuing . session of Parliament, the Bill for that portion of the line between Smethwiek and Stourport. Every exertion will be made to complete the line at the earliest possible period. The engineer s are THE now actively engaged in making the Parliamentary survey and working drawings._ After a good deal of cl;:sult.ory conversation on the terms of arrangement entered upon with the Birming ham, Wulvethampt.m, and Stour Valley Company, am the Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Stafford shire Junction Company, the re-election of the following gentlemen as direct >rs was proposed, seconded, and car vied unanimowly Wiliam Grimsby Gore, M.P., the Hon. Henry Clive, M.P., John Benbow, M.P., William Rickford Collett, M.P.. Wm. Collins, M.P., Wm. Techney, Block, .Tames Clay, Stephen Phillips, Richard Smith, George Probyn, William Bennitt, William Chance, Rict.ard Heath, Joseph King, and Win. Austice. Pursuant to the recommendation of the directors, Messrs. Benjamin Collett and Richard Law were ap pointed auditors, their remuneration being fixed at 201. each per annum. Mr. BLOCK proposed, and Mr. PIERCY seconded thp motion, " That Mr. George Knox be confirm( d in the office of secretary, at his present salary of 5001. per annum, until the openiog of the line ; and in considera tion of the very zealous exertions of this gentleman, that a sum of 3002 be presented to him, in order to testify the sense which the proprietors entertain of his services generally, and more particularly in having been instru mental in effecting the amalgamation with the Dudley and Madeley Company, an arrangement whereby the opposition of that company, as a competing scheme, was avoided, and the position of the Shrewsbury and Bir mingham Company materially improved." The resolution was carried unanimously. THE IRISH MIDLAND GREAT WESTERN. DUBLIN, SATURDAY.—Yesterday the half.yearly meeting was held at the company's board-room, 23. College-green, for the purpose of receiving a report and statement of accounts from the directors, for the year ending the 30th June last. Lord Dunsandle in the chair. The SECRETARY, Mr. 11. Beausire, read the report, in which it was stated that the directors intended to pro ceed with the construction of the Athlone branch, the Bill for which had received the royal assent last session of Parliament, with all the expedition in their power, and that the necessary steps had been taken to apply to Parliament for power to construct a line from Athlone to Galway, and as the company from Portarlington to Galway had been dissolved, in order to complete the chain of communication with the west and north-west of Ireland in the direct and legitimate course, not only was there no substantial opposition apprehended, but the countenance and support of Government and the public would be given to the project. In consequence of the pressure on the money markets, the directors had with drawn the Bill for the extension from Longford to Sligo, but they hoped to renew the project at a future time. The Irish North Midland and the Dublin and Lancashire Railways having .been rejected by Parlia ment, the directors would adopt measures for securing the traffic which the wealthy and populous districts adjacent to Bells, in the county of Meath, would afford. The first fiqy-four miles of the line from Dublin had been contracted for, upon which the works were in satisfactory progress. Agreements for land had been entered into with tenants, possession of which had been obtained; the owners in fee had not as yet been set tled with in all cases, but in a short time possession would be had of all that was required. They expected that the line as far as Enfield would be open for traffic next spring, and a further portion to Mullingar in the course of the summer. The income to the canal con tinued to be satisfactory. The reduction of the tormag has had the dashed effect of increasing tonnage, and the benefits which the purchase of the canal had insured were rendered permanent. The balance of available cash on hand on the 30th of June last was 7,2761., to which the sum of 45,0001. had been added by means of two calls of 21. 10s. each, and the directors had the plea-ure of stating that those calls had been responded to by the proprietors in a satisfactory manner. The purchase of the Royal Canal had absorbed 157.7954, and as that sum had con siderably reduced the paid-up capital of the company, they were unable to proceed at a more rapid pace with the works, but they entertained a confident expectation that Government would render assistance by giving ad vances on reasonable terms, for the purpose of facilitat ing the profitable employment of the people. The SECRETARY next read the engineer's report, in which Mr. Iberians informed the company that the entire length of the line from Dublin to about three miles below Mullingar, where the Longford and Athlone branches had been for some time under contract, and throughout in process of construction, the total cost of which would be about 170,0001., or about 3,1484 per mile for works, including earth work, masonry, ballasting, laying of rails, and maintenance of works for six months, a sum not more than many lines of railway have cost for earth work alone. The total sum received by the directors, comprised of deposits, calls, and profits of the Royal Canal, was 212,2061. The expenditure comprised the cost of incorporation, engineering, and legal and parlia mentary expenses ; interest on shares, railway works, iron rails, sleepers, &c., 204,9304 is. 61, and the ba lance in hand, 7,2761. 9s. 6d. Lord DUNSANDLE moved, and Mr. JOHN ENNIS se conded the motion, that the report should be received and adopted, which was agrCed to. Mr. BERMINGHAM recommended that they should call on the Government to assist them with a grant of money in order to enable them to proceed with the line to Gal way, whereby the starving population would be em ployed. The CHAIRMAN said that in the course of the summer he Led spoken to some of her Majesty's late Ministers on the subject, who had given him a reply in the nega tive; but the times were now different, and although he hat made no communication lately on the subject, he thought the money might be better expended in that way than by digging holes or tilling hollows. LEEDS AND THIRSK LINE.—The preparations for the working of the Thirsk contract of this railway are be ginning to be visible, and several of the contractors' Ii rses, waggons, &c., are making their appearance. Several purchases of land have been msde, and there are expectations of breaking ground every thy. NEW STATION IN HULL.—The necessity for increased public accommodation at the railway terminus in Hull has at length received the attention of the directors, and the erection of a new station has been determined on. TRIM EASTERN COUNTIES.-A deputati on from the directors of the above line (which may be better known to our readers by its old title, " the Carlow and Kil kenny") met at the Carlow club-house, on Friday, for the purpose of arranging with the different proprietors along the line, for the purchase of the land required by the company, with a view of commencing the works this present month. The deputation consisted of the fol lowing gentlemen :—Edward Grogan, Esq., M.P. for the city of Dublin, Redmond, Esq., and John Alexander, Esq.. of Milford. We hope every possible facility will be afforded the agents of the company along the line, and that no obstruction will interfere with their arrange ments, as it will be a matter of the greatest importance, at a period of such general distress, to have a work of this magnitude going on in the country at this season of the year, and giving employment to hundreds of the la bouring population.—Carlow Seatinel. 12 36 NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, SEPT. 20.—Her Majesty's mortar steamer Scourge returned from Aberdeen and the Shet land Isles on Friday night, to St. Helen's, and yesterday went into the harbour to coal. The Scourge landed the corporal and men of the Sappers and Miners at Balta Island, on Monday, and the next day left Unst, and got to the anchorage at St. Helen's in 80 hours. The weather was very fine on the coast of Shetland, but very cold. The baggage of the two remaining companies of the 74th Highlanders will be embarked in the Sc..urge to- morrow, and next morning she is to take on board the men, and proci ed with them to Aber& en. The defects in the machinery of the Bulldog have not yet been completed, and she is therefore still in the har bour; but it is expected she wilt be able to get away on Tuesday. She has officers and dispatches on board for Vice-Admiral Sir W. Parker's squadron, and also for Rear-Admiral Dacres, at the Cape of Good Hope. The Bulldog's orders are for her to go to Devonport to be paid, and there receive any men, or dispatches, which Admiral Sir J. West may have to send. A day or two atter the Bulldog arrived here, her engineers re ported themselves sick, and unable to do any duty; in consequence, on this being communicated by Admiral Sir C. Ogle, the Admiralty had to send en gineers from Woolwich dockyard to supply their places, but at the same time their Lordships ordered a Court of Inquiry to be held on board the steamer, to ascertain it the men were so sick as stated. Yesterday Captain Pasco, and Commander Wilcox, of the Victory, and Commander Slade, of the Recruit, were ordered to con. duct this inquiry, and it has been reported by them that. using to the closeness of the packing of the engines and machinery, and the want of a free passage 01 air, the ventilation is so deficient that the health of the en gineers has suffered from the extreme heat. These offi cers have further stated that the men were really indis posed, and unable to do any duty at that time, and fully exom rate them from any attempt at imposition or ne glect of duty. The &cilia brig, Commander Slade, is at Spithead, ready for sea. It is expected she will be sent to the Mediterranean. but she is to go to Plymouth first, to have her compasses adjusted. The isigntning Admiralty steam yacht has left their Lordships, and arrived here on her way to Woolwich. A Russian corvette, or storeship, from the westward, anclewsd at Spithead this afternoon. The Wasp, 16, is daily expected from the Island of Ascension, and after landing her passengers and invalids, is to go to Sheerness to be paid off. The Admiralty have sent the Myrtle steamer to this port to perform the duties of the Comet during her ab sence in Ireland with the Government money. Four companies of the 2d Regiment of Foot have been moved by the South-Western Railway from Winchester to Gosport, to replace the 3d Buffs transferred to Ports mouth; the remainder of the 2d will go down early nex week. The freight-ship H"rald has brought to this dockyard, from Moulmein, the framework of two frigates, to be put together b 5• the artificers of this place. They are of teak, from Burman._ _ , A fine steamer belonging to the East India Company, called the Conqueror, is at Spithead, bound for Bombay. She is 1,600 tons burthea, and carried out her engines, machinery, funnels, &c., with her, also some ordnance stores. The Conqueror is barque rigged, and will sail out to her destination. All the noblemen's and gentlemen's yachts in this har bour, and at Ryde and Cowes, as well as the steam vessels connected with the Isle of Wight, have had their colours half-mast high since Friday, in consequence of the dpath of their much respected commodore, the Earl of Yarborough.

' About half-past eight o'clock on Friday night an alarm was given by various fire-bells that the siz...honse of Mr. Hibbert, in Stanley-street, was in flames. Im mediately on the fact being announced, the fire brigade, with the hose-reel, was on the spot. Owing to the combustible nature of the materials used in the works, the flames soon got to an alarming height, illuminating the neighbourhood to a very considerable extent, and being visible in almost every part of the town. The Victoria engine, and the engine or Messrs. Mr rocks, Miller, and Co., were on the spot a short time afterwards,but a considerable time elapsed before either engine was got into play, and a still further time before they were effective. In the meantime the fire gained a rapid ascendancy, every portion of the building being soon under the un - eontrolled dominion of th e flames, and it then became evident that no portion whatever of the stock or pro perty beyond the bare outer walls could be saved. Attention was of course directed to saving Mr. Pickles' (the Sovereign) mill, the west wall of which is close up to the siae-house. The very thick substantially- built walls of the mill proved impervious to the fire, and that property was saved, as were also the cottages adjoining. The close vicinity, not only of the Sovereign mill, but of Mr. Paley's, and the extensive premiss of MPSSI'A. Horrocks, Miller, and Co., gave to the tire, at one time. a very threatening aspect. Towards half-past ten o'clock, however, owing to everything combustible in the pre mises having been burned, the flames abated. The size-house, in which the fire originated, is en tirely gutted. The whole of the apparatus, stock, &0., is destroyed, and nothing but the bare walls remain standing. It would be difficult as yet. to estimate the loss, but we understand that there was a considerable quantity of warps on the premises. The stock and building are insured to pretty nearly their full value. The cause of the fire is not ascertained; but it com menced in the top, or fourth story—a room used fur drying warps, which is done by means of steam pipes. The firemen appeared to work uncommonly- hard, and nothing could be more praiseworthy than their arduous exertions; but they appeared as if wanting system, and dependent upon desultory suggestions for guidance. There was indeed much confusion and an evident want of that promptitude and efficiency which is essentially necessary on such occasions, and which is indispen sable in a town like Preston, where so much valuable property is constantly at stake. The most melancholy part of this unfortunate occur rence is the untimely death of Mr. Pickles. He was pretty early on the spot after the alarm was given, and feeling naturally anxious for the safety of his property, was in his mill when the fire raged most violently. From the fourth story of the factory is a passage over a portion of the size-house to the " Devil," or blowing room, a detached building. This passage was fire-proof; excepting the floor, which was flagged. Mr. Pickles was standing at this passage with an overlooker at his mill, of the name of Robert Wilson, when, stepping forward, the flag upon which he had planed his foot immediately snapped, having been cracked by the intense heat, and Mr. Pickles was at once precipitated into the midst of the flames, and falling through the third and fourth stories alighted on the second floor, uttering as he went down only a faint "oh!" A spiral flame for a moment hid the unfortunate man from the sight of Wilson, but, on its subsiding, the latter saw the body of his master stretched on the iron floor below, then glowing with a white heat. This agonising sight was, however, soon concealed from him, by the falling of portions of the roof, flooring, &e., and the rising of a dense column of smoke. After the names had subsided, the ruins were searched, sod the body of the unfortunate man was found, sadly burned ; the arms, legs, and face being dreadfully scorched, the latter, indeed, almost wholly obliterated. The dreadful fate of Mr. Pickles seemed to be most keenly felt by all present. and cast a feeling of deep gloom over most of the people congregated on the un fortunate occasion. lie was much respected by his workmen, as a kind-hearted master, and he has left a widow and four children to lament his untimely end._ Preston Chronicle. ST. LAWRENCE'S CHURCH.—We understand that ;he Lord Biehep of the. diocese has made an appointment o meet the Restoration Committee, at Reading, on this day fortnight, when the arrangements for proceeding in this important work will be settled. The Right Rev. Prelate takes considerable interest in the due restoration of the venerable fabric, and we believe has suggested a plan by which all professional differences of opinion as to the plans sent in for competition will be removed.— Berks Chronicle. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT BRISTOL-0G Sunday morning, at about one o'clock, a most destructive fire was discovered to have broken out in Broadmead, tee of the most densely-populated portions of the city. The fire commenced in the workshops of a Mr. Rich, a cabinet-maker, which were situated in a lane in Broad mead, abutting upon, and joined by the stables and coach-bouses of Mr. Bland, one of the principal omni bus proprietors and carriers from the goods departments of the Great Western, Bristol and Exeter, South Devon, and Bristol and Birmingham Railways. The buildings being very old, and filled with combustible materials, the flames shot forth with awful rapidity, and at half- past one o'clock the scene was one of the most imposing ever witnessed. The flames rose to full 100 feet above the houses, and having speedily caught the premises of Mr. Staddon, and of Mr. Nosh, cabinet-maker, burnt with a rapidity that threatened the whole neighbourhood with destruction. The valuable horses, Sec , of Mr. Bland j were, however, removed from their stables into a place of safety ; and by the untiring exertions of the police force, under the command of Captain Fisher, their superin tendent.and the fire brigade (the West of England In surance Company's engine having been first on the spot), at about six o'clock this morning the flames were got under, and the adjoining properties, which had frequently caught fire during the night, were considered safe. AA to the amount of damage, of course at present it would be idle to speculate, but it must be very considerable. TIIE COBDEN NATIONAL TRIBUTE.—It will be seen by the advertisement elsewhere, that the subscriptions in the Manchester district, up to last evening, amounted to 47,5631. This includesithe recent Huddersfield subscrip tions.—Manchester Guardian. SPECIAL TRAINS TO HULL.—On Monday last 2,400 to 2,500 persons went by special trains from Leeds to Hull, taking up passengers also at Woodlesford and Castl, ford. The Leeds Old Temperance band accom panied them, and with some of the party proceeded, per steamer, to Barton. Others crossed the Humbar to New Holland, where Mr. Featherstone was holding, on the bowling-green, the last of his series of dancing parties this season. The streets and the docks, cathedral, and suburbs of Hull were thickly lined with strangers during the day, and in the evening they departed in one enor mous train of 6.5 carriages, drawn by three powerful en gines, the Liverpool, the Star, and the Express, dashing along at the rate of 20 to 30 miles an hour. It was a noble and cheerful sight. The weather was glorious, cud right merry were the party on their departure from a town in which they appeared to have much enjoyed themselves. Another special train, with 1,000 to 1,100 persons from Old and New Mahon reached Hull the fol lowing day. The farmers' lads and lasses from both sides the Derwent required full 30 carriages, and we], tilled they were, when they agreed to come together ti s( e the port of Hull. This was the most rusticated com pany that we remember visiting Hull by any train They were extremely orderly. With what pleasure. must Mr. Hudson, a native of near Mahon, and who was in Hull that day, have beheld the cheerful faces of hi, own country friends.—Leeds Mercury. THE L...TE CASE OF MILITARY FLOGGING AT HOUNSLOW.—On the evening of Thursday last, an °islet from the Horse Guards was received by Lieut.-Culonet Whyte, the commanding officer of the 7th (Queen's Own) Hussars, directing that regiment to prepare them selves to leave Hounslow Barracks en route for Ire land on Monday. Ever since the conclusion of the late inquest held on the body of White, the lower orders of the town and neighbourhood of Hounslow, when they have seen any of the officers, and particularly Li eut .- Co'onel Whyte, out o f the barracks, have assailed then. with upbraidings, couched in no very pleasant terms. The farriers have also, when they have ventured into the licensed he uses in the neighbourhood, been publicly in sulted for t le part they took in the infliction of the punishment on White, and it is believed that the know ledge of these facts have induced the Horse Guards' authorities to issue the order for their removal. Their departure from Hounslow Barracks is looked forward to with much gratification by the majority of the inhabi tants, as it will allay mach of that excited and irritated feeling which still exists in that neighbourhood on tl.e subject of military flogging. A NEW RECIPE FOR MAKING LOVE.---Yesterday as one of the dock gatemen was going along Vauxhall road, he observed a man running in hot haste after a woman. When the fellow had nearly overtaken her, he pulled out a pistol, and deliberately fired it at her. The: woman fell, and the dock gateman seized the would be murderer. Fortunately the woman had only swoon, d at the sound of the pistol's discharge, and it is very pro bable that it contained nothing more than a charge of powder. The man proved to be a ship -keeper, residing in Benn's•gardens, named Frederick Douglas ; the. woman was his second wife, but it having been just discovered that the first wife was not dead, she refusee to live with him. He was very much attached to her, and had adopted a system of annoyance and terror to compel her to return to her allegiance. She continued to refuse, and he, having met his ci decant spouse., threatened to shoot her if she did not come back. She became alarmed at so novel a mode of love-making, and ran away, when he pursued and shot at her as before mentioned. The dock gateman handed his prisoner over to the first policeman he met, and the husband of two wives was brought before Mr. Rushton, who, on hearing the chief of the above particulars, remanded him until this day (Saturday) for further inquiry.—. Liverpool Mail of Saturday. THE GAP IN PICCADILLY.—Month after month having passed since the houses on the south side of Piccadilly were pulled down to make room for a post office, as was at first said, but in reality, as it afterwards appeared, for the Museum of Economic Geology, and no movement being visible, we have been led to inquire into the state of things there. So far as we can learn, it appears that the idea is not so near being a reality as it was some time ago. Plans were prepared, but not meet ing entire approval, were sent back, as we are told, for alteration. A new administration has since come into power, and up to this moment, we believe, nothing pre cise is determined on, in respect of the proposed building; so that it seems probable that the dwellers around the spot in question (some of whom have written to us on the subject anxiously) will have the benefit of doubt and a dirty hoarding for some time to come yet. — The Builder.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Sept. 21. Mr. Commissioner Phillip, recently appointed to this Court vice Sir David Pollock, the new Chief Justice of Bombay, took hi, seat for the tirit time in company with the Chief Commissioner this morning. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT OLD COURT. The eleventh and last session but one, of the present mayoralty, was opened this morning die Record. r, Aldermen Gibbs and Farabroiher, .Ir. Sheriff Chaplin, and Mr. Hider Sla riff Wire. The grand jury having been sworn, The RECORDER proceeded to deliver his charge. He said, Gt ntlemen of the grant jury, the pre sent calendar contains a list of two hundred prisoners, who are to stand their trial for the (gene, s that are severally charged against them. There is rea son. however, to apprehend ts.at this number will be considerstly Augmented in the coutsit of the present week. Among the offences enumerated in the calendar there is a charge of murder; there is also a charge of manslaughter, committed under peculiar circumstance, ; there are two charges of rape, four charg,s of robbery, and no less than twenty eight charges of cutting and wounding with intent to do grievous bodily harm, in the county of Middlesex alone. I can not revert to this circumstance without expressing the opinion which the Court has time after time ex pressed in reprobating this crime, namely that it is on the increase. Until a recent period the use of the knife was comparatively unknown, but I lament to see that every succeeding calendar proves that cases of this de scription are more common, and there is every reason to believe that the offence is equally on the increase throughout the country. By the provisions of a recent statute, where, as in casts like these the evidence it the judgment of the petit jury falls short of the full charge of assault with intent to do grievous bodily harm, the mitigated charge of assault can be sustained ; but that, as I have stated, is a question altogether in the province of the petit jury to determine. But if' there i- evidence of the use of the dangerous weapon, if a wound is proved to have been wantonly and wickedly inflicted with the intention of doing the 'Jerson assault , d an injury, then it will be your duty to bring in a l e:7 - the aggravated assault, and so put the case in course o, further investigati-n. Gentlemen, with regard to the charge of murder, it is a charge founded upon very peculiar circumstances, the deaths which the person charged is represented to have occasioned arising from the taking of a drug, or rather a vegetable substance, which is called the "deadly nightshade," and, I believe, 6,11 a donna, which the prisoner is said to have hawked about the streets, and sold with a rtcomtnendatiou as to its excellence for tarts and other purposes. The pri soner represented it as a safe fruit ; but he appears to have known its character tram asother circumstance— he appears to have known that it was a deteily poison. Now, gentlemen, the evidence of his selling that which he was mare was a deadly poison will greatly depend upon the testimony of a chemist, who was in the habit of dealing with him as a man of judgment in the matter of herbs, and one who was able to discriminate between the deadly nightshade and other noxious herbs, and those which were harmless. lam unwilling to go into the details of the case, lest I should prejudice the cause of the prisaner; but I must refer generally to pair duties in the particular case in ques tion. Gentlemen, your inquiry will be directed, first, to see whether this act et the prisotier was an net of wil fully selling and recomtnending as a holesome what knew to be deadly poison. You are to -see that this knowledge of the character of the vegetable substance referred to is made out to your satisfaction, and that lie therefore wilfully, maliciously, and wickedly sold this to the individuals who have sufThred by it. If this is proved to your satisfaction, then, gentlemen, you have evidence on which to found a bill of wilful murder against him. If, on the other hand, you fled that he made a false re presentation of a knowledge he did not possess of the wholesomeness of the articles for the mere pur poses of lucre, and without really possessieg a knowledge of the narcotic properties of the herb; if you find that he sold it without any intention of putting human life in danger, but with a reckless disre gard of future consequences, then at least you can bring in a bill charging him with the crime of manslaughter if death were the consequence of his culpable negligence. It is lamentable to find, that not only the lives of a man and boy were sacrificed in consequence of having eaten of this deadly nightshade, but that, in addition, five or six other persons were obliged to be taken to-the hos pital, suffering from the effects of this poisonous vege table. In conclusion, if you found that this was a fatal mistake arising from no criminal negligence of the pri soner's, then it would be your duty to bring in no bill at all. There is also a charge of manslaughter against a person who had charge at a railway engine. The- pri soner was alleged to have mi-conducted himself whit, in the management of that engine, by runniag into the last carriage of a train which had arrived shortly be. fore at the station, thereby causing the death of an individual in it. It is the bounden duty of every one who undertakes the management of an engine to be fully competent to do so. There ate certain signals established on every line; there is a whistle attached to the engine to give notice to other carriages upon the line; there is a certain rate of speed to which they are limited when approaching a station, and it will be your duty therefore to ascertain whether these signals were displayed en this occasion, and whe ther the other means fur the prevention of accidents were duly attended to. In the present day it is almost a matter of necessity for persons travelling to go by rail ways, and where, therefore, the lives of many individuals may depend upon the prudence and experience of one person, it is highly necessary that that person should be held strictly bound to exercise all due caution. You will therefore inquire whither this unhappy accident is really occasioned by a misfortune over which the pri soner had no control, or whether it was to be attributed to his culpable negligence. The Learned Recorder then adverted to the charges of rape, and after brit fly stating the provisions of the Act 7 and 8 George IV., in refer ence to the administering a noxious material to the fish in the Hampton Court waters, concluded by remitting the grand jury to their duties. The Grand Jury then retired. Edward Morgan, George Beth e l! and Thomas Ballard, surrendered to take their trial upon an indictment charging them with feloaio r u s s o l an : er s s te . aling Clarence car riaMr. I)oaue ge, the property f,piirdoesde o c f tuh l te t ed c: i i di Kean. r : Clarkson, with Mr The circumstances under which this charge was pre ferred against the defendants were of rather a peculiar character. It appeared that Morgan was engaged in business as a coach-builder, and he had had some trans actions with a cab-master, named Worthington, and on the beginning of the present year there was some nego tiation a clarence carri age , t h e result according to the s t atement o f M organ, that ) being, according them la specti ng he vehicle was hired by Worthington for 5/. a month, but the latter declared that a purchase out and out had been effected, and that it was to be paid for by instal ments. Very soon after the carriage came into Worth ington's possession, it appeared that he took it to a re pository and got an advance 4204 upon it, and he then ordered a person, namcd Kean, to whom he was at that time indebted, and who had brought an action against him, to repay the 201. so advai.ced, and take the carriage in liquidation of his debt and costs. It then appeared that Morgan, having become acquainted with those cir cuinstances, went to the place where the carriage was kept by Kean, accompanied by the other two defendants, and under pretence of purchasing it, they obtained pos , session of it, for the purpose, as they said, " of trying it upon the main road," and took it away altogetoer. It appeared that the matter had been investigated by the magistrate at the Hammersmith Police -court, aid he dismissed the charge of felony, but the parties subse quently went before the Grand Jury, who found a true bill. The jury returned a verdict of Not guilty. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. A man, who gave his name as J o h n S m i t h , was brought before Mr. Ald e rman liumphery and M r. Alderman Challis, charged with having wan ton l y ~hroken a pane of glass, of the value of 30i., m the shop window , pf Mr. Walter Chetworth, No. 15, London -street. The prisoner admitted that be had wilfully done the mischief of which he was accused ; and he gave the ' excuse which has lately been very common for such wantonness in the City. that "he was in distress, and wanted to be sent to prison." Mr. Alderman H UMPIIERY ordered him to pay a penalty of 5/., or go to prison for two months. Prisoner—Thank you, Sir. Mr. Alderman II UMPLIERY—I regret that I have not the power of sending you to six months' imprisonment, with hard labour. The prisoner withdrew from the bar, apparently quite satisfied with the result, and exhibiting not the slightest compunction for the serious injury he had inflicted on Mr. Chetworth. BOW-STREET. Jan Cousins was charged before Mr. Henry with attempting to commit suicide by throwing himself into the river at Hungerford-pier, yesterday. A ragged and most wretched-looking young man, who said that h e h a d b een a draper ' s assistant, stated' that at about half past twelve o'clock that morning he was lying in one of the barges near the bridge, and saw the prisoner deliberately walk along the pier, and tumble headlong into th e water. He at first sank, but on rising to the surface swam towards the place where witness was. As sooa as he got Bear enough witness gave him his hand, and helped him to swim towards a post, which he laid hold of, and so supported himself until witness went to a barge near that in which he was, and got a rope, by means of which the prisoner climbed into the barge. The prisoner said that he did not intend to drown himself. He was rather intoxicat( d, and did not per ceive the water until he found himself in it. It was evident that he had no thought of drowning himself, or he would not have exerted himself to swim, as the wit • ness had proved he did. Mr. H7ENiti said he did not suppose the prisoner in t4t1‘..,1 to kill himself, but this ought to be a warn ing to him to keep himself sobo r fiv the f.tt:!re. His worship then put several (pie -tions to the 'witness', in answer to whit.ii he sd:', that he :-a; now in very rednerd eircumstar ces, but, had betn an assistant in a draper's shop in Vauxhall, but left the place about six months ago of his own accord. He had not I , c , en able to get another situatical since. Mr. HENRY B ,id h e would discharge :he prisoner, but he thought he ought to g the witness sum thing by way of recompense for his trouble. As, however, he did not surpose he could give much, he (Mr. Henry) would give the witness 10s. tait of the poor box. 'The v. itoess took the money, and looked as if he could hardy persuade himself of its reality. The witnoss said he would give th , . witness '° what he could," as he thought he owed his life to him—He was then discharged."

A deputation from the Irish Society has been for some days inspecting their estates in Derry, with the view to making improvements cud giving employment to the poor. In a report of the proceedings of the (b given in the Derry Sentinel of Saturday, there are the reellowing passag, s " The building leases of the society, generally spe,k ing, wid be extended, and most of the tenants who either have expended, or who intend to expend money on building, are satisfied with the terms granted them ; but with a few who hold under the society in this way the deputation have not come to a complete understandi.g., they being desirous that the occupiers and not the mid. dleman or intermediate tenant should derive the chief benefit. A deputation of their tenantry attended at Milton Lodge, and they were a ell pleased with the result. A long conversation arose respecting the state of the poor. The society are determined to aid, in every possible way in their poner, in providing work during the approach ing winter. •"The deputation had small parties to dine with them every day, as it was their object to procur ) from the clergymen. magistrates, and gentry of this district, who were best informed, their several opinions respecting the condition of the people, their wants and wishes. When time permitted, they also drove round different parts of the neighbourhood, in order to ascertain the exact state of the crops, and the weather being remarkably fine, they had an excellent opportunity of gratifying their desire on this subject. " Another miter which engaged their attention de mands our notice at greater length than any of the pre ceding. It ha! frequently been remarked that the north coast of Ireland abounds with fish, and that Culdaff Bay and the Back Strand of Magillan, which are both open to the a( a, are abundantly supplied with turbot, sole, plaice, &c. That they are abundantly furnished with cod is beyond dispute, but, notwithstanding, from the apathy that exists, and want of skill, there is no person of sufficient means willing to fit out a craft pro • perly equipped for fishing this boisterous and exposed coast; nor has it yet been ascertained if a vessel adapted in every way for the purpose would repay herself, al though the prevalent opinion among those best qualified to judge is, that if knowledge and industry were com bined, she would make a handsome return for the' ex penditure. It was lately represented to the society by their officers, that a subscription to a pier to be built on their slob;at Moville, would b ene fit t h e l oug h an d tra d e in various ways, especially in affording shelter to craft employed in the deep-sea fishing, and they imme diately granted 300/. and the ground on which it was to be built. The late deputation, on their ar rival here, inquired what progress bad been made with the pier, observing that there was the harbour at Port rush on one band, and that the pier of Moville would shortly be completed on the other, and that these ought to afford abundant protection to the small fishing craft of Ennishowen and the county of Derry; but, on being informed that the latter work was not even commenced, and that their Admiralty yacht was well found in sails and ground tackle, they immediately proposed to lend her to two of their practical officers, and to grant a sum towards the purchase of a first-rate trawl, provided proper persons were brought from Liverpool to instruct them in all the branches of deep-sea fishing, and that they would supply the vessel with all kinds of fishing lines, make such alterations in her at their own expense as were necessary, keeping a trua account, to be fur nishcd when called on, of the income and expenditure, and submitting to other regulations, as required by the general agent and the vice•admiral. " Their subscriptions to schools and places of religious worship were on the most liberal scale, and we greatly fear that if the pn party of the society was placed in the hands of persons resid( nt here, local prejudices and various other causes, which it is needless to specify, would operate very seriously to the detriment of those valuable and important public institutions to which the present lords of the soil are such munificent benefactors." Count de Jarnac, French Charge d'Affaires had an interview with Lord John Russell on Saturday, al his official residence in Downin¢•atreet. CLERICAL INTOLERANCE. (From the Newcastle Guardian.) A glaring and shameful act of clerical intolerance has just occurred in this neighbourhood —a case, unheprily, not uncommon, but, for that reason, all the more de serving of the most unqualified condemnaeion. It appears that the Rev. Mr. Armstrong, the incumbent of the parish of Wallsend, deems the rite of baptism to be vapid only when administered by a clergyman of his own denomination. Accordingly, when recently aslo d to grant Christian burial to the child of one of his parishioner=, he stoutly refused, on the ground that t'e child had been invalidly baptised by a Wesleyan minister, put the keys of the church-yard into his pocket, and, unceremoniously walking off, kit the poor heathen, as we euppo,e his Reverence would call him, to bury his child the best way he coull The corpse of the child was taken to the•ehurch-yard, conducted through the sexton's house, instead of by the usual entrance, and interred without the customary service. Can any one imagine the feelings of the parent so harshly and so rudely treated ! He immediately communicated the circum stance to the Lord Bishop of the diocese, who as promptly returned the following reply:— The Bishop of Durham is very sorry to hear that any of his clergy has acted in the manner stated by Mr. Giles. It Mr. Armstrong has refused Christian burial to a child, because it had been baptised by a Dissenting minister, lie has acted unwor; hy of his calling, and ren dered himself liable to punishment in the ecclesiastical courts if Mr. Giles or any other wish to prosecute him. The Bishop will net fail to write to Mr. Armstrong. This is the answer we should have expected from the worthy liishop, and it is highly creditable to his lordship. The parishioners followed it up by sending a deputation to Mr. Armstrong to remonstrate with him on his un feeling conduct, and to assure him that unless he'rledged himself never to repeat it the bishop's recommendation ' would be carried out, and proceedings instituted forth with. This is said to have had the desired effect on Mr. Armstrong, and we are promised that such an outrage t will not again occur at Wallsend. We purposely delayed noticing this until its publication became absolutely ne cessary. Such cases, we know, are not more disagreeable ca to dissenters than to many pi ous an d lib era l mem b ers of the establishment. Yet the system that allows a minister of any religion, Episcopalian, Congregational, or Wesleyan, to practise such acts of intolerance must be i% bad—radically bad—and in need of serious reformation. Armstrong is blameable; but bow much more so 61.6 are the laws that allow him or any other clergyman—we care not of what religion —to ch-grade themselves and their profession so miserably? Verily the c. unry has „ need of many reforms, but church reform is the crying necessity of the times. MARKET NE W 8.-(YES TERDAY) COrtZT-EXCILEING.E. During last week the arrivals of all kinds of grain of home produce were on a very moderate scale. From Ireland and • Scotland scarcely any Corn worthy of notice came to hand •, 1 4 while the receipts of foreign Grain were trifling—those of Flour good. Fresh up this mcrnirg a full average quantity of English Wheat came to hand from Kent, but the arrivals of that article from Essex and Cambridgeshire were small. On the whole the stands were fairly supplied with samples of both red and white, the finest parcels of which commanded a steady sale, at an advance in the quotations obtained on Tvronday last of fully is per quarter, and at wl:ich a good clearance was effected. The middling and inferior kinds were firm, and prices were well supported. The quantity of free foreign Wheat on offer, owing to many of the large importers hav ing withdrawn their samples for the present, was by no means large. Although the transactions in this article were not to say extensive, the demand may be considered firm, at very full prices. With Barley, both of home and foreign growth, we were rather scantily supplied; yet the trade was inactive, at, in some instances, a decline in value of ls per quarter, and no progress could be made in sales. Super. tine Malt, ready for delivery, commanded a steady sale, at . very full prices. In all other kinds.comparatively httle was doing. Notwithstanding the show of Oats was small, we have to report a slow inquiry for that description of pro duce, it barely, but at nothing quotable beneath, last week's prices. Very few Beans were on offer, yet the sale for them • was slow, at late rates. The best parcels of Yeas supported previous quotations: In other kinds next to nothing was doing. In Flour a moderate business was doing, at our quutationF.

The imports of live stock from abroad into London in the past week have been considerable—those at the outports de cidedly on the increase. With this increase we have to re port a very great improvement in quality, in that of the Sheep in particular; and it is an instructive fact to notice the great difference in the general condition of the arrivals, compared with that at previous corresponding periods of the year. Many of the Sheep which have lately come to hand exhibit signs of crossing with cur Downs and other black faced Sheep; and, altogether, they exhibit more aptitude to fatten than we have ever before noticed.

As several vessels have been again dispatched 4% to Holland for the purpose of loading cattle for London and 9 1i the outports, large imports may be expected this week. 3% 2 In addition to the a b ove arr i va l s 100 B easts and 300 S heep 54 were landed from the Rotterdam steamers this morning, _ which, together with 600 of those which arrived last week, 1,300 Sheep and Lambs, and 27 Calves, were on sale to-day. Nearly the whole found buyers at full prices. From our own grazing districts the number of Beasts were large, but of middling quality. Prime Scots, I3ereforclA, Sec., moved off steadily, at full prices; but most other kinds hung on band, :hough we cannot consider them cheaper. The number of Beasts from the northern counties comprised about 2,000 Short horns; from the eastern districts, 300 Scots and Short horns; from the western and mioland counties, 700 Here fords, Devons, &c. ; from other parts of England, 200 of various kinds ; from Ifeland 14 Beasts, and from Scotland, 30 Scots. The numbers of Sheep were seasonably good, but not so large as those extibited for some time past. The Mutton trade was bri-k, at an advance in the quotations of from 3d to 4d per 8, be, the best old Downs readily producing 5s per 81bs. Lambs were in good request, at a rise of 2d to 4d per 81bs, at which a good clearance was effected. In Calves and Pigs, the , upply of which was, moderate, a good business was doing at extreme currencies. Per 81bs. to sink the offal. $. d. s. d it. d- to s.

Very limited supplies of country.killed Meat have been received hither since Monday last, but those offering_ slaugh tered in the metropolis have been seasonably good. Each kind of prime Meat— Mutton in particular—has commanded a very steady sale, at fully previous quotations; but the middlieg and inferior kinds have hung on hand. With foreign Meat we have been well supplied, and the whole on offer has been disposed o f a t good pr i ces. The country arrivals during the week have amounted to about 40 carcases of Beef, 100 ditto of Mutton, 50 ditto of Veal, and 140 ditto of Pork.

BOROUGH HOP MARKET. _ _ ----- Notwithstanding the supplies of New Hops are unusually large for the time of year, and of very superior quality, the demand has become steady, and a large business is doing, at lull (though comparatively low) prices. The duty is called 20u,000/., while many are disposed to back it higher. The following are the quotations of New Hops :—Sussex Pockets, 75s to 85s per cwt. ; Weald of Kent, 82s to 92s ditto; Mid and East. Kent, 94s to 126 s ditto. EOROUGH AND SPITALPIELDS. We have still larger supplies of Potatoes on sale; but their general quality is bad. Selected samples are in good request, at from 100 s to 120 s per ton; but the inferior samples may be purchased at from 30s to 60s. WOOL. The imports of Wool into London during the past week amountod. to 3,1E8 bales frcm Sydney, 621 bales from Port Philip, 610 bales from Launceston, 164 bales from Ham burgh, and 32 bales from the Mauritius. The public sales are progressing steadily ; most of the parcels offered having found buyers at full prices. On the whole, there is more doing in English Wool, but we can notice no improvement in value. LOW.

For forward delivery there is but little doing, buyers as well as sellers are shy. The prices at St. Petersburgh (according to the lette rs rece i ve d to -d ay ) are firm, and a fair business doing.

LEEDS AND BRADFJRD RAILWAY.—The dripping state of the Thackley Tunnel has caused great disatis faction among third-class passengers, many of whom have emerged from the tunnel wet through their clothes, and many a lady's finery has been spoiled by it. The directors, however, have hit upon a cure or a partial re medy for this. They are about to sheath the tunnel with metal plates from an inner roof impervious to the rain. We shall in a few weeks be enabled to state that Bradford is in possession of an elegant railway station. The iron pill ars an d g i r d ers to rece i ve t h e roof are already fixed. We hear that litigation is likely to arise between this co m p an y an d t h e cana l company respecting a right of road to the traffic department of the station.— Leeds paper.
