The Committee of Direction beg to inform the Shareholders that the requisite deposits with the parish-clerks, Private Bill-office, &c., have been made, and the whole of the notices served in compliance with the Standing Orders of Parliament. The value and importance of the line being universally admitted, the COmmittee beg to submit the following tabular statement, from an examination of which the public will be able to julge how far the engineering merits of this line will bear comparison with the other schemes intended to accommodate the same district: — The line from Boston to Shef- By opposing lines which omit field, through Sleaford, Newark, Newark, and Mansfield, by the Boston, Newark,and Sheffield itailway,is Distance .

From an examination of the preceding, it will be seen that the line of the Boston, Newark, and Sheffield Railway, as a communi• cation between Boston and Sheffield, while it connects Boston and Sleaford with Newark, which the others do net, has the advantages over its opponents of 11 ij miles in distance, 8,408 yards in tun nelling, and of a gradient of 1 in 120, instead of 1 in 84, thus effect ing an enormons saving in capital. On the two other routes compared above, the advantages as to gradients and tunnelling greatly preponderate on the same side, that of the Boston, Newark, and Sheffield Railway ; and these, according to a principle lately most prominently announced by a great railway authority—" that the best railway is not always the shortest, but that which works best "—much more than compensates for its greater length of about three miles. Besides, there are fourteen miles and a half of the route from Not tingham to Boston, via the Boston, Newark, and Sheffield Railway, already In the course of construction by the M idl an d Company, thereby rendering it necessary for the opposing lines to make eleven miles additional railway with very heavy gradients, In order to save three miles and a half in their distance, as compared with the Boston, Newark, and Sheffield line. A more minute statement of the comparative merits of these lines, which is now preparing, will, it is confidently anticipated, set at rest all doubts as to the superior engineering merits of the Boston, Newark, and Sheffield Railway, over its rival schemes, and establish its Parliamentary claims on an incontrovertible basis.

BAROMETER, 29.93.—W1ND S., fine. SECOND EDITION br .. 011'; ieni . n 11 :,---fitit LONDON, FRIDAY, JANUARY 16, 1846. The intelligence brought by the Acadia from the United States is only m ost unfavourable deseriptaioije anticipated—of the had Measures,en brought into on the proposition of General Cass, inl a 09 Senate for stren g thenin g th e navy, th e militia, and putt in g the count ry generally embodying s tate of defence. Resolutions to that effeet w re aid before the House, and it was ordered unanimously that they should stand over for discussion. in the same House the annexation of Texas had been sanc tioned by a large majority. Texas is to be admitted into a full share of all the rights enjoyed by the other American states ; in other words, notwithstand ing what has been said by Mr. WEnsma and others of the Whig party, Texas, with all the horrors of slavery, is declared 6n integral portion to the union. The Whigs evidently have no power to stem the tide of encroachment, aggression, and annexation, which is now the rage of the Democrats, the advocates for war, and the enemies of England. Indeed, it ap pears that the hostile spirit which prevails is stronger even in the Senate, usually a calm and moderate assembly, than in the other House, where the Demo crats were supposed to predominate. On the 30th of December the Oregon question was brought under discussion on the following resolutions, proposed by Mr. HANNEGAN, of Indiana : " Resolved,—That the country included within the pa rallels of 42 and 54 North latitude, and extending from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific Ocean, known as the terri tory of Oregon, is the property, and part and parcel of the territories, of the United States. " Resolved,—That there exists no power in this Govern ment to transfer its soil and the allegiance of its citizens to the dominion, authority, control, and subjection of any fo reign power, prince, state, or sovereignty. " Resolved,—That the abandonment or surrender of any portion of the territory of Oregon would be an abandonment of the honour, character, and the best interests of the Ame rican people." Mr. CALHOUN proposed other resolutions as an amendment, by which it was declared that the PRE SIDENT has the power, with the advice of the Senate, to make treaties, and that the settlement of boundary lines is embraced in this power ; that in offering, in a spirit of peace and harmony, the 49th parallel as the dividing line between the United States and Great Britain, the PRESIDENT exercised powers rightfully belonging to him, and acted for the best interests of the country. He was for peace, if it could be ho nourably preserved—for negotiation, if negotiation was to be had ; and if it could not be, he would still pursue such a course as would throw the onus of war upon our adversaries. He believed the Executive desirous of peace, and meant to co-operate with him. If war came he should be found with his coun try; but he held those to a fearful responsibility who would rashly thrust war upon us. The mover of the resolutions, who seemed determined on war at any price, said, " For one, he hoped that they would never stop short of the cannon's mouth. A singular state of things existed in the course pursued with regard to Oregon as contrasted with that of Texas. Yet both these subjects had their birth at the same time, both were cradled in the Baltimore convention. For Texas there could not be too much haste. Texas we must have at once. Texas up to the Nuesces. But this was with Mexico ; the moment England is in question it is another thing, For one he never would vote for any treaty that stopped short of 54 deg. 40 min." After some speeches, not varying much in tone from other Members, the resolutions were laid upon the table without the amendments. In the House of Representatives Mr. DOUGLAS, Chairman of the Com mittee on Territories, presented a Bill in relation to Oregon, which was referred to the committee of the whole House on the state of the Union, ordered to he printed, and made the special order for Tuesday, the 6th of January, and to remain such special order until disposed of. This Bill is in direct violation of the existing convention between England and the United States, and goes much further than even the Message of the PRESIDENT, for it contemplates the immediate esta blishment of a territorial government over the whole of Oregon up to 54 deg. 40 min.—the cession in futuro of land to settlers—and the establishing, both on this and the other side cf the Rocky Mountains of the United States, military posts for the protection of emigrants. Another set of resolutions was proposed in the Senate by a -Mr. ATCHISON, but differing very little in their character, and leading to the same results. In reference to these re solutions, one of the New York papers states can didly, that " if the Senate and House of Representa tives shall pass them, and the Committees to which they would respectively be referred report favourably thereon, there will be pending in both Houses Bills tantamount to a declaration of war, if they shall be come laws." Mr. PAKENHAM, the British Minister at Washington, is said to have expressed himself strongly and decidedly, as well he might, that the Bills are in direct violation of the existing treaty between Great Britain and the United States, and will be so re garded by the former Government. He objects specifically to that provision of the Bill which authorises the erection of forts, as being an act of pos session not within the competency of either Govern ment, and also to the sending of the military force of the United States into that territory. It was ex plained to him that such force should only be to such an amount as should be reasonably necessary to the protection of the United States' citizens there, which protection is the duty of the Government, and per fectly consistent with our obligations under the treaty ; but, after a somewhat long discussion upon the subject, his opinion as to the offensive character of the Bills remained unchanged. These are only a few specimens of the various schemes now popular in America for annoying Great Britain. Flo rida, as we stated yesterday, would, by and by, claim Cuba, as more properly belonging to that state than to Spain, and accordingly a member of the Senate, representing Florida, proposed a re solution for purchasing that island from Spain. Why did he not use the more appropriate and popular phrase "annexing" it to Florida, as Texas has been joined to the Union ? " This prcposal (says the New York Courier) for the writer seems anxious to screen his countrymen, was, indeed, received with silent derision, but, taken in connexion with other things, does it any the less indicate that a spirit is at work which aims at almost unlimited territorial aggrandisement? This blurting out of every crude suggestion used to be confined to the House of Representatives. The Senate heretofore has been, measurably at least, exempt from such puerilities, but the spirit of pro gressive democracy,' in levelling down, is as fatal to senatorial dignity as to senatorial qualifications and training." But the tide is all against the moderate men. Peace is not in fashion either at Washington or in the " far west," and whatever the friends of order, and good faith, and peace may say and hope respeeting the aspect of affairs in America, we are compelled to con fess that war is all but inevitable, and to call upon the British Government to be prepared for the worst. Canada must be strengthened. A new Governor- General has just been appointed, and a military Governor very properly has been selected. England desires peace, but only on honourable terms, because no other peace could be lasting, and the best way to maintain peace with such men as POLK and CASS is to be fully prepared for war. It would be a very great mistake to suppose that all or nearly all of the 879 railway schemes which have been published as " defunct " have failed to comply with the requirements of standing orders, after having raised money. We venture to state that considerably more than half of the names in that list have never been more than nanzes. The five pound note, which is all that is required for provi sional registration, was always ready, while the railway mania was raging, as soon as the want of railway communication, or of shorter railway com munication between any two places on the map flashed upon the creative brain of a railway projector. To "register provisionally" was the first thing, and very often, indeed, the only thing done. To have " registered provisionally " gave, or was imagined to give, the projector a right over the country. Not a moment, then, was to be lost about "provisional re gistration ;" secure the country, and then consider the merits of the scheme, or rather (for the considera tion of the merits was often longer postponed) consider the chances of beating.up a provisional committee, and - getting an allotment paid upon. Then perhaps, after a scheme had been registered, some mo dification of it occurred to the projector as desirable ; it might be advantageously cut short or extended ; it might go round to take in some other town, or there might be a branch. Immediately there would be a new " provisional registration." Another five pound note and another would fly to the registrar, winged with hopes of boundless premiums on shares yet uncreated, and a price untold for the project. Then, perhaps, all came to nothing. The projector would perhaps go off to some other totally different scheme, and compound for the sinking of the five pound notes which had gone by expectation of greater gains elsewhere. This is no imaginary tale ; and in this way it may easily be conceived that the regis• tier's list will be swelled with a large number of names which never got beyond the pecu'iar process of christening, now known as "provisional registration." If any one looks through the list which appeared in The Sue of the 14th, he will see a number of mere varielies of names, clearly indicating a series of mo difications of places ; and if he compares that list with the list of schemes for which plans have been duly deposited in the Parliament-office (in The Sun of the 7th), he will find still more signs of successive modifications. Then, again, many schemes have merged in others by amalgamation, and the money raised is still to be applied to the object for which it was raised, but under another name, and, it is to be presumed, with brighter prospects. We should indeed tremble for the consequences, in pecuniary loss to individuals, in litigation, in wreck of character, in injury to credit, were we not able to offer the above explanation of a list of 879 " defunct schemes." As it is, we have good reason to believe that the number of cases in which, after money has been received by provisional com mittees, the plans, &c., have not been deposited, will not be much more than may fairly be accounted for without want of due care and diligence, and greatly less than, taking all the circumstances of the late railway mania into consideration, might have been expected. It appears by the list published in The Sun of, the 7th of January, that 721 railway companies have duly deposited the required documents in the Parlia ment-office. But it is yet to be seen in how many of these 721 cases the plans will bear the scrutiny of the Standing Orders' Committee, and in how many the necessary funds are in hand for deposit., The latter point will soon be known. We have always thought that there has been in many cases a disposition to bear:too hard on provisional directors—that some peculiarities of their position had not been sufficiently estimated—that all their pro ceedings were preparatory to the meeting of Parlia ment—that till then they should be allowed the benefit of every possible presumption in their favour, and every aid which could be fairly given as against shareholders who might be unreasonably impatient and unjust under the influence of disappointment. But the day of reckoning is at hand; and in all cases in which it shall be established that expenses have been incurred in order to keep up a delusive appearance, after ascertaining that the plans could not possibly pass muster, or after a failure on an allotment which left no hope of raising the required capital, we shall be the first to say that the provisional directors de serve no mercy. And it will be no excuse that they have been controlled by solicitors. We can easily conceive, and we have heard of cases in which soli citors, having been allowed their own way, have gone on after only a few hundred pounds had come in on an allotment, and success was hopeless, depositing plans, serving notices, &c. These solicitors will be sufficiently punished by non-payment of the long bills which they have been running up, and for the sake of which only, of course, they have been going on. But provisional directors, who have committed their names and characters to the public for the proper management of heavy undertakings, and have allowed their functions to be usurped by their own servants— and these servants having a direct pecuniary interest in mismanagement—cannot expect to escape uncen sured by their shareholders, or at the bar of public opinion. We have received Madrid journals of the Bth, with the continuation of the debate in the Chamber of Deputies on the Address. It possessed rather more interest than has been displayed in the Cortes for some time. Senor LLORENTE, Member for Cadiz, made a vigorous and eloquent speech against the policy pursued by the NARVAEZ Government. He denounced the dictatorship which had been established, and condemned altogether their foreign policy, espe cially that with the Court of Rome. Senor MON, the Minister of Finance, replied, and in a good speech answered the arguments of his opponents. In speak ing of the Opposition, he said it was not so mild and prudent as was pretended, of which the vehement language of Senor LLORENTE was sufficient proof, and he let fall the words, " a conspiracy of 30 Depu. ties to upset the Ministry." This expression produced bursts of indignation from the left benches, and the President was frequently obliged to call to order, BRAVO Mort.thLo followed and defended the Go vernment, which, he said, was sincerely anxious to introduce reform into all the branches of the public Administration, but that it had considerable difficul ties to overcome. The debate was adjourned. Don HENRIQUE was to leave Madrid on the evening of the Bth, for Ferrol, and his brother, two days after wards, to join his regiment at Pampeluna. The fall of one per cent. in the funds, is attributed to this paltry affair, but there must be some other reason, though not assigned, On the Bth the Three per Cents. closed at 34 at 60 days ; the Five per Cents., at 23 at 60 days. In the French Chamber of Peers that endless ques tion, the right of search, has again been revived. In the debate on the Address, Co unt .. "kr ..ATRIEU DE LA REDORTE objected to the paragraph, which asserted that by the new treaty the commerce of France had been placed under the surveillance of their own flag. He considered, on the contrary, that their commerce, instead of being placed by the new convention under the surveillance of its own flag, had been deprived of its national rights. This charge, though very ab surd, called up the Duke DE BROGLIE, who gave a succinct account of the construction of the treaty, and proved that the charge was utterly unfounded. The example of America had constantly been held up for imitation, but there was no difference in the instructions given by that Government to their cruizers from those given to the French and English vessels. " The principle of responsibility was there plainly laid down in the sense adopted by the other powers." He then read the instructions issued by the American Govern ment in 1843, and expressed his surprise that the Noble Peer could have fallen into such an error, which he could only have done by seeking informa tion amongst the objections started by the Americans before the convention of 1842 was signed. He had contrived to fill his head with polemics instead of with definitive treaties. The Noble Peer then, touch ing on the conventions relative to piracy, main tained, in the first place, that the slave trade was almost always connected with that offence; and, next, defended the instructions given en that head by the Minister of Marine in 1845 to the French cruizers. They were, he declared, pefectly in conformity with the laws of the kingdom. He had taken part in drawing up these instructions, and he could aver that every imaginable precaution had been taken to have them perfectly regular and legal. On that occasion he had consulted naval officers of great experience, who had cruised on the coasts of Africa. It was according to their sugges tions that the details of the instructions relating to merchant vessels had been determined on. But that was not all ; he had carefully examined all the judg ments of the tribunals on the matter in question, which were deposited in the department of the Marine ; he had also had search made in the archives of the council of State, sitting as a council of vessels taken, and had consulted all these documents. The instructions had afterwards been examined in the offices of the Marine, so that he had every reason to believe that they were regular and exact. He was neither a jurisconsult nor a naval man, but he had called to his aid all the authorities he could find, and believed that he had conscientiously performed the duty imposed on him. On this subject the Journal des Dibats makes these remarks : We supposed that we had done with the question of the right of search, but we find that we w ere mistaken. Count Mathieu de la Redorte who, lately published a work, the end of which was to prove that, notwithstanding the solemn declaration inserted in the discourse from the Throne, French commerce was not replaced under the exclusive protection of her flag, in his discourse yester day attempted to prove the convention of the 29th of May last, which abrograted the treaties of 1831 and 1833, and the reciprocal right of search to be an unworthy deception, and having for effect to substitute in place of the right of search a regime yet more oppressive. He tried, moreover, to prove, that tho convention signed with England, and the instructions destined to regulate the execution of it, have tended to violate all national as well as maritime rights, Heaven only knows upon what grouds he founded his thesis. The duty of replying to this dis • course naturally devolved upon the statesman who had the honour to attach his name to the convention of the 29th of May, 1845. All the scaffolding of the subtle ties which the orator had so laboriously erected, im mediately gave way before the arguments, simple, though teeming with reason and sound sense, used by the Duke de Broglie. The convention never had violated the principles of the rights of men and the sacred rules in French legislation. The illustrious orator clearly justified the convention pf the 29th of Diay. It is in conformity with all laws, and all received tra ditions in practice among civilised nations. None of the Opposition attempted to reply to the lucid and sound arguments made use of by the Duke do Broglie, and which produced a very lively impression on the Chamber. The Moniteur contains official dispatches from Marshal BUGEAUD respecting the late affair with ABD-EL7KADER, but they add not one word even to the brief telegraphic dispatch. BUGEAUD is sadly puzzled what to do with his restless and skilful an tagonist. In speaking of this ccntemptible affair, the Courrier Francaise says:—" Our soldiers performed prodigies of valour, but oar horses were knocked up with fatigue, after a forced march at night, and the men fought as one to two without having had either rest or food. Thus, whatever the Marshal may say, if the physical advantage has been on our side, it may be affirmed that this is not the case as regards the moral results. And shall we give a proof of the truth of this affirmation ? ABD-EL-KADER, instead of pro ceeding towards the south-west—instead of effect ing a retreat—AßD-EL-KADER, who is represented by Marshal BUGEAUD as dispirited and discouraged, has, on the contrary, advanced into the very heart of the province of Algiers, even to Milianah. This, at least, is what we are told by an Algiers journal. Thus, between the 24th and the 30th, whilst M. BUGEAUD could only reach Orleansville, from which place he dates his report, the vanquished and hunted ABD-EL-KADER had got before him towards the north-east, and the intelligent Governor-General was giving instructions for his being sought for in the south-east." The French Government is using its influence to settle the disputes between Belgium and Holland. An extraordinary courier left Paris on Wednesday for Brussels with dispatches to the French Ambas sador. It is said that he bears the offer of the French Cabinet to moderate between the Governments of liolland and Belgium in the differences that have arisen relative to the tariffs. The Liberal Liegeois states that the King of HOLLAND continues his re prisals against Belgium. The inspector of fire-arms of that Monarch lately intimated to the contractors of Liege that they need not make any preparations for supplying arms as usual, as he had received orders to get the required quantity supplied from other sources.

CORN EXC HAN GE-FRIDAY. The present week's arrivals of English Wheat have been on a very moderate scale, yet, as the dealers generally are waiting the approach of the Parliamentary session, the de mand for that article was extremely heavy, at nominal cur rencies. In Foreign Wheat, free as well as in Bond, no sales were transacted. Of all other kinds of Grain the show was very small, yet, owing to the above-mentioned cause, scarcely any business was transacted in them. ARRITALS. Wheat. Barley. 3,810 qrs. 4,990 qrs.

All other kinds of Hops move off slowly, yet prices are supported. COL olan.L. SVGAlt.—There has been an inclination to sell Sugar, for some parties are, mooting the possibility of an alteration in the duty, and desire to sell, accordingly, with that reserva tion. This, of necessity, must check business. The decline in Sugar is 6d to is per cwt as regrrds British Plantation, though the sales at these rates have not been large. Bar badoes by auction has realised 53s 6d to 54s 6d for fine yellow, and 48s 6d to 49s Gd for low. EAST INDIA.-6,176 bags Bengal mostly found buyers, but at 6d decline also for white and yellow, and is for brown. Fine white realised 54s 6d to 56s 6d, mid and good 52s 6d to 555, fine strong sound grey 53s 6d to 545, good yellow Mau ritius kind 50s to 51s, low 46s 6d to 495, fine sound brown 425; 2,356 bags Madras were nearly all taken in at 43s Gd to 48s, a few lots sold at 43s to 47s for damp and washed yel low, and at 47s to 48s for sound yellow. MAURITIUS.-11,235 bags mostly sold, but partly at a de cline, low and mid yellow at 47s to 49s 6d, good at 50s to 52s 6d, fine at 52s 6d to 545, brown at 45s to 46s 6d per cwt. REFlNED.—Standard lumps have been at 64s 6d per cwt. COFFEE.—There is a moderate demand for West India at steady rates, but by auction the transactions have been very limited. Ceylon has been at 59s for fine ord grey plantation sorts, and at 82s for the superior sorts. Bahia has realised 27s to 32s 6d, and Rio 47s to 675. Singapore Java peaberry has been at 37s fid per cwt. Some Quilon has been sold at 378 to 39s per cwt., and some M oc h a t a k en i n a t 54 s f or ord greenish, and 75s for fair sound yellow long berry.

SricEs.-240 bags 7 casks Pimento partly sold at 3id to 3d per lb, for good ord to mid, 250 bags Malabar Pepper went at 2id, and 56 bags White Pepper were taken in at 4-id per lb. RUM.—There has not been much demand this week. TEA.—The market is steady, and with good deliveries. TALLOW.—P.Y.C. is 43s to 438 3d per cwt on the spot. MORTALITY OF THE METROPOLIS.—The table of the deaths egistered in the metropolis during the week end ing Saturday, January 10, 1846, exhibits a considerable dimi nution as compared with the week preceding. In the week ending January 3, the total number of deaths, except from violence, was 1,061 ; in the week ending January 10 it was 945. The total number of deaths registered in the week ending January 10, including deaths from violence, was 972. Diseases of the lungs and other organs of respiration appear to have been very fatal during the last week, 308 deaths appearing under that head in the table, which is a larger number than appears under any other. We are requested to state that the Hull and Barns ley Junction Railway Company have duly deposited their plans. WINDSOR CASTLE.—We understand that her Ma jesty v ill give a grand banquet on Monday nest at Windsor Castle, after the Chapter of the Order of the Garter.

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 6,000 bags, including 1,000 bags American on speculation. Prices rose hd. per lb. on the American news. Shares were dull, and not so good. It is satisfactory to find, by the private accounts received from Canada to-day, that the subject of the extension of railways is most warmly supported ; and not a little anxiety was experienced at the report sent out some time since (but which was totally unfounded, as ulterior results have demonstrated), that the Great Western Canada Railway pro ject was about to be abandoned. The vitality of this really great undertaking is now insured, and the managing com mittee are only awaiting the proper time for the commence- ment of the operations of the Company in real earnest. The commercial accounts from Quebec are, upon the whole, of a satisfactory. character. It cannot be denied that the prospect of a war, h,pwever remote, between this country and the United States may, for a time at least, check a full tide of commercial operations, unless something of a satisfactory character is decided, so as to guarantee the continuance of peace. The Sun of this evening contains so full an account of the political and commercial intelligence, received by the Acadia, that but a very few remarks are necessary upon those topics under this head. The anticipation that the corn-laws would be altered, so as readily to admit of the importation of Ame rican flour into this country for consumption had been as " oil thrown upon the troubled ocean," in quieting the war party in almost all the states. Consols for the Account opened this morning - at 94 1 4, but have since advanced to 94%. The settlement is in the course of adjustment and it turns out to be a Bear Account. Consols for immediate transfer have improved from 94% to 94%. The Commissioners for the savings' banks, and for the national debt, made their usual pur chases to-day. A great deal of business has been trans acted in the Three per Cents. Reduced. at prices varying from 95% to 94 3 / 4 . The sales of this stock have been rather considerable. The Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have just improved from 97 to 97%. The premium upon Exche quer-bills ruled from 15s. to 18s. India Bonds are at 30s. premium, and India St oc k a t 255. In the Foreign Funds there has not been any considerable amount et business transacted this morning. .0 hilian Bonds are at 100; Portuguese Four per Cents, have been at 59 1 ,E ; Spanish at 28 1 4 ; the Three per Cents. at 38 3 % ; the Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 95 1 ,4 %; and the Four per Cents. at from 94 to 94 3 / 4 .
