PRICE SD. ness of travelling on the line. Ile would venture to assert the fares on the London and Brighton line were much lower than those of any other railway in this part of the kingdom. From personal experience he knew that the opinion of the public was against the formation of any rival line to that of this Company. The meeting would be aware that two years ago the South-Western Railwa' Company proposed to take a lease of this line. The proposition was almost unanimously rejected. It was very curious that the annual dividend, which that Company then offered, was precisely the sum (355.) which this Company would reeeive,for the past half year. This fact showed the increasing prosperity of the line, and must be highly satisfactory to the proprietors.—(Cheers.) He concluded by moving the adoption of the report. Mr. SLIGHT wished to know what regulations had been made for the conveyance of the mails on this Company's line ? The CHAIRMAN had no objection to answer the question. The directors had every desire to make the line as useful as possible to the people of Brighton. They therefore proposed to take the mails without any additional charge.—(Hear.) The proposal had as yet been neither accepted or rejected. Mr. lieoop, seeing that so much had been expended in the Company's attempt to get the Wandsworth branch, wished to know whether the directors intended proceeding on the basis of the agreement of last year? The CHAIRMAN replied in tGe affirmative. Mr. WISHAW, after congratulating the directors on the suc cess of their labours, recommended them to adopt the prac tice of issuing two-day tickets. The CHAIRMAN said that the question of two-day tickets had been often and fully canvassed by the directors, and they believed that it was not advisable to adopt the practice suggested by the Hon. Vroprieter. With respect to the re duction of the fares for chiliren, as . recommended by an other Hon. Proprietor, the directors were of opinion that the present policy of the Company in that respect should not be altered. The report was then unanimously adopted. The CHAIRMAN then moved that a dividend of 355. per share (deducting the income-tax) be payable on Tuesday, the 24th instant. —..4lte-niotion was wooded, amLunanioamly carried. „ Tile CHAIRMAN then moved that the directors be authorised to receive the consolidated eighth shares, to convert them into stock, on condition that such shareholders be permitted to pay up the remaining 101. per share. Mr. E. CROWLEY (the deputy-chairman) seconded the motion, which was then unanimously passed. The CHAIRMAN then said that the standing orders of the House of Lords required a fuller notice to be given to the proprietors previously to their deciding upon the proposed branches; but, as those of the House of Commons did not, the directors were anxious to hear the views of the proprietors expressed without any further delay. The directors did not intend to consider the erection of the central terminus at Charing-cross until their next half-yearly meeting.—(Hear, hear.) The Chairman then proceeded to describe, with the aid of a chalk outline, the routes of the various branches proposed by the directors. As regarded some of those lines it was not necessary to say anything. Others of them he was enabled to state would remunerate the Company, if they were economically made. The remuneration would be very moderate indeed, but the great advantage arising from their formation would be the fact of their acting as feeders to other important lines.— (Hear, hear.) He then moved the approval of the applica tion to Parliament of the different branches mentioned in the advertisement. The total length of those lines would be 46 miles, and the expense 636.000/.—(llear, hear.) Mr. FLoon, at some length, contended that it would be inexpedient to form the proposed branch to Wandsworth, because the South-Eastern Company had it in their power to construct a branch at the same place, at a far less expense amendment o a r v ti a o i n l than this Company possibly could, and the South-Eastern Lion, that a tthat doubt, aatn p themselves oft htoe trhe the o o f lmu t that no motion i w r u c hn u it m ehr s t p c p e l Wandsworth should be omitted. ed considersHt The CHAIRMAN—Does any gentleman second the motion ? —(Cries of" No, no," and laughter.) The Chairman then said that the question upon which Mr. Flood had spoken at so much length had long occupied the careful consideration of the directors and the proprietors at large, and their unanimous opinion was that the Wandsworth branch should be applied for.—(Hear, hear.) The original motion was then put and unanimously car ried. The CHAIRMAN then said that the expense of the applica tion for the branch in question would be 3,204/. 3s. Bd. which would include surveyor's expenses, Esc. The CHAIRMAN then moved that the meeting confirm the report for making the extension from Fareham to Ports mouth. It was seconded and carried unanimously. It was moved by the CHAIRMAN, that the directors should be authorised to convert the share capital into stock. This motion was put and carried unanimously. The business next before the meeting, the CHAIRMAN said, would be the election of directors in the room of those re tiring. He was sorry that the company would lose the ser• vices of Mr. Henderson altogether, as he had refused to be re-elected. Mr. FLOOD proposed that Henry Spencer Cooper, Esq., should be re-elected a member of the Board. The motion was seconded and carried unanimously. Mr. MILLER proposed Mr. Gale in the room of Mr. Hen derson, who retires. He entered at considerable length into the qualifications of the candidate. Mr. C. CROWLEY seconded the motion. Nr. SIMPSON proposed, as a candipate for the same va cancy, the Hon. Captain Hotham, and entered at length into his me►its. . Mr. Scorn had great pleasure in seconding that nomi nation. Mr. SoLomoNs rose to a point of order. He suggested that the names of those directors be given who left them selves open to re-election. The CHAfitmax would have suggested the same course had he not been interested. Mr. SonomoNs moved that llowlat.d Hill, Esq, should be re-elected a member of the Boat d. The motion was warmly seconded, and carried unanimously. Mr. TITE moved the re. election of E. Watson, Esq. This was seconded. Mr. MAciinia, of Leeds, moved that Leo Schuster should be elected a member of the Board. Mr. Ogle, of Leeds, se conded the nomination. ' The CIIAIR3IAN still thought the course which had been already noticed by the meeting should be pursued, of putting the names of the retiring directors first to the votes of the proprietors. Mr. MACHAIR explained that he meant his motion as an amendment to that in regard to Mr. Watson. Mr. Sonomolis spoke to order, and proposed that the amendment just made should not have the precedency. An liox. PROPRIETOR spoke against the re-election of directors, as it tended to induce apathy in the management of the affairs of the Company. Mr. MACHAIR pressed the amendment. The CHAIRMAN put the amendment, which was lost. The original motion was put for the election of Mr. Wat son, which was carried with only three dissentients. Mr. MACHAIR demanded a poll on behalf of Mr. Schuster. The CHAIRMAN took a show of bands for Mr. Gale, Capt Hotham, and Mr. Schuster, but it was more a matter of form, as they proceeded immediately to the F 01l in reference to all the candidates together, as the electron by show of hands was revoked by the demand for a poll. The vacancies, therefore, to be filled were four, and there were six candidates to be polled for, viz.:—Rowland Hill, Esq.; Henry Cooper, Esq. ; Edward Watson, Esq.; C. J. Gale, Esq.; on. Capt. Hotham ; and Geo. Schuster, Esq. The proprietors immediately proceeded to the poll. SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY. TO THE SHARE HOL RNDERAIRS OF THE SOUTH EASTELWAY. Carlton Club, London, Feb. 1846. Gentlemen,—l hope the subject contaited in this letter will be considered by you a sufficient apology for my in truding myself upon your notice. As I have for years past resided near your line of railway, and been tolerably well acquainted with all the proceedings of your directors from the time the Company was first formed, I am going to make a few observations as to the real position of your affairs at the present time. And, first of all, I will remind you of the proceedings of your directors last year towards the late solicitor of the Board of Ordnance. They proved, by their conduct upon that occasion, and by their petition to the House of Com mons, that they had negotiated with a servant of the Go vernment, apparently with the object—(l say apparently in charity)—to obtain his influence at the Ordnance-office to allow the (South-Eastern) North Kent line to pass through Government property, to the prejudice of the rival Company. And, because, the Master-General, at a later stage of the proceedings, withdrew his dissent from the other Company, your directors turned round and exposed the very man whom they had induced, by (may 1 not say questionable) means, to promote their ends, because he was not able to do all for them that they wished. The names of Mr. Bonham and Captain Boldero were also brought conspicuously before the public, who, I believe, are two as Honourable Members as ever lived, and were as per fectly innocent of the charges imputed to them as the child unborn. It is rumoured that Members of Parliament feel so indig nant, that there is more than a possibility, perhaps, that they will exert themselves to throw out all the Bills belonging to the South-Eastern Company that are brought in this session —if they do not most plainly advantage the public interest — unless you , shareholders, turn out all the present directors. In the .next place, I will inform you of the manner in which your money has been and is likely to be spent, unless you elect other men to have the management of your Company. Without saying anything as to the original formation of the line, which, of course, the present Board had nothing to do with, I will only refer to some of the pro ceedings of last session. A Bill was brought before Parlia ment for making a line from Hastings to Ashfoi d, through a country where there is no traffic, and that never can remune rate the shareholders for the -outlay. Ask any one residing in that country, and they will tell you that your money might almost as well be thrown into the sea. This line was proposed to be carried across a portion of Rye Harbour, and the Commissioners of the harbour sent up a memorial to the Admiralty, begging them not to allow them to proceed, as they considered it would be a serious obstruction to the navigation, and in consequence of this a stop was put upon their proceengs; and it was only because your directors entered inter an arrangement to lay out 10,0001. of your money upon the harbour, that the Admiralty was induced to withdraw their veto. It is no more necessary for this line to go across any portion of Rye Harbour than it is necessary to cross the Thames to go from London to Blackwell ; and if you can get Mr. R. Stephenson, your present engineer, after examining the spot, to say that it is either necessary or desir able that this line should cross the harbour, I will consent to have my hand cut off. I may be told that this line is to be made on purpose to please the Government, as it partakes of the nature of a coast line. This being the case, it is a most extraordinary thing that the Admiralty, who are not an un important section of the Government, should have made any obstacle to its proceeding. Your directors intend to bring a Bill into Parliament this session, for making a line of railway from Tunbridge Wells to Hastings, which will cost your Cum pany a million of money, and will not bring you in a clear revenue of more than from 10,0001. to 15,0001. a-year ; and your consulting engineer, Mr. R. Stephenson (of whom I always wish t o s p eak iu th e - highest terms) says, that it is perfect ma dness to attempt such a scheme, and gave me his authority to tell every one I thought proper, that he had nothing to do with it, nor was it a line he at all approved of. I am, and have been for some years past. a considerable railway shareholder, but I never had anything to do either with the North Kent line or your Company (except that I once bought two Shares in the South-Eastern, which I held for about a month), as I have always had a very indifferent opinion of the ways in which your affairs have been managed; but if there was any likelihood of a change for the better, I should have no objection to becnnie one of your proprietors. —I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your most obedient humble servant, (Signed) CHARLES IL FKEWEN. P.S. If the directors of the South. Eastern think proper to answer this letter, I should be much obliged to any share holder who will send me a copy, directed to Northiam, near Staplehurst, Kent. COURT CIRCULAR. In celebration of the sixth anniversary of her Majest, 'a marriage, the following party had the honour of b e i ng in vited to dine at Buckingham Palace yesterday :—Her Ituyal Highness the Duchess of Kent, the Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch, the Marquis and Marchioness of Abercorn, Lady • Fanny Howard, Baroness de Speth, the Earl of Aberdeen, the Earl of Liverpool, the Hon. and Rev. Leslie Courtenay, and Captain Francis Seymour. The band of the Scots Fusilier Guards, led by Mr. Booe, was in attendance during dinner, and performed selections from Lachner, Weber, Streck, and Labitzky. After dinner the following party were invited for an early hour :—His Excellency the Chevalier and Madame Bunsen, the Marquis and Marchioness of Lansdowne, the Earl of Jersey, Earl and Lady Katherine Jerilyn, the Earl and Countess of Clarendon, the Earl and Countess of Delawarr and Lady Mary Sackville West, Viscount and Viscountess Palmerston, Viscount and Viscountess Mahon, the Bishop of Oxford, Lord and Lady Lyttelton, Dowager Lady and the Honourable Miss Lyttelton, Lord and Lady George Lennox, the Right Hon. Sir Robert and Lady Peel, the Right Hon. Sir James and Lady Graham, the Right Hon. W. E. and Mrs. Gladstone, Mr. George Edward and the Hon. Mrs. Anson, Hon. General Upton, Sir Henry and Lady Wheatley and the Misses Wheatley, Sir George and Lady Couper, Sir Robert and Lady Gardiner, Sir George Anson, Sir James Clark, Mr. Hallam, and Mr. Rogers. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, attended by Lady Fanny Howard and Sir George Couper, Bart., arrived at diarencellouse, St. James's, at ten minutes past twelve esterday, from her residence, Frogniore-house, Windsor. tier Royal Highness visited the Queen at Buckingham Palace, and remained to luncheon with her Majesty and Prince Albert. _ _ . Messrs. Gamble and Gott had the honour of submitting to Prince Albert yesterday Mr. Nott's newly. invented electric telegraph. His Royal Highness was pleased to express his approbation of its superior efficiency and simplicity. The Viscountess Canning has succeeded the Marchioness of Douro as the Lady in Waiting to the Queen ; and the Earl of Warwick has succeeded the Earl of Morton as the Lord in Waiting to her Majesty. The Royal Family were taken their accustomed daily airings yesterday in the royal gardens. Dispatches were received on - Monday evening at the Co- - lonial-office from the Governors of the West India Colonies. The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council sat .yester • day, and heard an appeal from Bengal, " Cowie v. Renfrey." The Loids present were the Lord President, Lord Brougham, the Vice-Chancellor Knight Bruce, the Chancellor of the Duchy of Cornwall, and the Judge of the Admiralty Court. Yesterday evening the lyric tragedy of Sophocles' Antigone was read bt Mr. C. Ken►ble, in the Picture Gallery, at Buckingham Palace, before her Majesty, his Royal Highness Prince Albert, her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, the royal circle, &c. For this purpose a stage was erected at the south end of the gallery, on which Mr. Kemble sat, with the chorus ranged on each side of him ; on the floor was the instru mental orchestra, composed of her Majesty's private band, conducted by Mr. Anderson, and beside him sat the author of the English version, Mr. Bartholomew, who read the chorus speaker's part, by which means the dramatic interest. of the piece was rendered more effective, and more nearly resembling the antique mode of its performance. The music of Dr. Mendelssohn Bartholdy was admirably executed by the band and a select chorus. It reflects no small credit upon the taste of the royal selectors of this modernised relic of antiquity, for it is to them that the noble party assembled on the occasion owe the gratification which the last of all our noble Romans, Mr. Kenible, afforded by his truly classical declamation. The interest of this festivity was very much heightened by the first. opening of the grand staircase, after the embel lishments with which it has b•. en adorned during the last winter, under the direction of Mr. L. Gruner. The whole of the decoration is after the best time of the great Italian masters. On the ceiling four fresco paintings on gold ground, representing Morning, Evening, Noon, and Night, executed by Mr. Townsend, have a most lial:py effect, and reflect the greatest credit on our rising school of British artists; wreaths of flowers surrounding these frescoes are the work of Messrs. Murdock and Denby. The splendid imitations of inarble,executed by Mr. Moxon, together with the handsome guilding, vivid colours of the ornaments, and the bronze figures, carrying masses of light on their heads, produce a most brilliant and striking effect.

Gentlemen,—When I so recently had the honour of ad dressing you, in answer to an unfoundoil rumour, I had no idea that circumstances would so soon again place me before you. It is my duty now to announce to you that, by the gracious favour of my Sovereign, I have been called upon to take part in the execu tive administration of that service which was the one of my early adoption, and to which I have ever continued ardently attached. By my appointment as one of the Lords of the Admiralty, I have vacated the representation of Westminster. I again most respectfully solicit the renewal of that honour at your hands. My political principles have been so recently laid before you, that their repetition here, is unnecessary ; they are, as I am, unchanged, and the event which has occurred, honourable as it is to myoelf, will not, I trust, be deemed by my constituents unweleome to themselves. I accept my official duties with a determination to fulfil them to the utmost of my capacity, never, however, forgetting those which I owe to the great city which I agent seek to represent. I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen, Your faithful Friend and Servant 23, Grafton-street, Bond-street. 11. J. ROUS, Capt. B.N, Feb. 11, 1846.

THE HYGEIAN OR MORISONIAN SYSTEM OF MEDICINE. 1. All animal bodies consist of fluids and solids. 2. While in a state of embryo all animals consist entirely of fluids. 3. It is from and by the fluids that the solids are formed. C The fluids contained in the human body are four times tbe weight of the solids. 51The chief of the fluids is the blood, from which all the others d are erived. 6, The blood not only repairs every part of the human machine, but: also carries with it all the rubbish, or decayed parts, to be depo sited in the intestines, previous to being expelled along with the excrement. 7'. The blood is the life—the primum mobile—the first agent— from which all others derive their origin. 8, Health depends upon the purity of the blood. g. The purity of the blood depends upon its having free outlets for its decayed particles. 10. Disease is induced by the choking up of these outlets in the bowels, by reason of an accumulation of glary mucous on the inner surface of the intestines, &c. 11. This accumulation is oceasioned by anything that weakens the circulation or hurts digestion, but chiefly by the poisonous drugs and had treatment of the faculty. 12. The impurities thus detained in the blood occasion every spe cies of disease, according to the quality of the humour, or the parti • cular locality in which it is lodged. 13. Ali diseases proceed from one source, therefore they must all be cured by one medicine. 14. This medicine must be a vegetable purgative, innoxious in it self, yet sufficiently powerffil to pervade the whole system, clear avfay the above-mentioned mucous, and purify the blood. 15. The discovery of a vegetable compound, capable of being di •gested, and mixing with the blood, so as to impart to it that energy requisite for ridding the body of all superfluous humours was a desideratum. 'l6. This discovery has been made by James Morison, the tlygeist, in the composition of the Vegetable Universal Medicine (commonly known as Morison's Pills), of the British College of Health, Hamil tOn-place, New•road, London.

In one bottom there • was one grain and seven-eighths of a grain below the standard; that was a grain of a pound troy. There was a wire 1 carat and 1% grains below the standard. The other wires and bottoms were also below the standard. The difference, on an average, would be 4s. 4d. an ounce. A grain of gold, according to the Mint value of gold, was of the value of 2d. According to that calculation the deficiency in one of the cases would be Is. 2d. This closed the case for the Crown. Mr, MARTIN then addressed the jury for the defence. He apprehended that he would be able to establish beyond a doubt that the conduct of his clients in the matter was most proper, and he was fully confid e n t that he would b y the evidence he would bring forward obtain their verdict. The Company at Chester were a very 0161 established Com pany', having been established since the time of William 111., and in consequence of some circumstances, which he detailed, it was stated that the object of that prosecution was the remdval of the assay-office from Chester to Liverpool. He proceeded to say that gold from which cases of watches were made was in the proportion of of pure gold and *of alloy, or 18 carats tine, and to ascertain that articles were made of that standard assayists were appointed. Hs stood upon the evidence then of Mr. Jones alone, who was brought forward on behalf of the prosecution, and he would prove from his evidence that there was nothing whatever in the whole transaction derogatory to the character of his clients. He would, besides, have the evidence of Duke and the evidence of Roe, that the wires with t h t a h t e f Mr. standard, Fuller, e andr on h and bottoms' were originally assayed and found not to be be i l t t e he woul dpart ot contrast th e prosecution, their evidence being perfectly confident that, even if a trifling mistake were made, it would be one which under the circumstances could not re -IlecO any discredit on his clients. A'ter a brief discussion, at this stage of the proceedings, betireen the Attorney-General and Mr. Martin, it was Livt:ll a t i tgr d eed to submit the whole case to be disposed of. ~.a Trade r and....the_44,49rd .Was ,fice9r.ljpAlz withdrawn.

William Plowman, Edward Plowman, brothers, were in dicted for stealing a quantity of plate, the property of a gentleman named Gremble, the master of the last-mentioned prisoner. Mr. Ballentine, and Mr. Wilde, were for the prosecution, anal Mr. Prendergast, and Mr. Clarkson defended the pri soners. As the case was very recently detailed in the police reports, it will be unnecessary to report the facts on the present oc casion. The jury found both prisoners Guilty, and they were sentenced to be transported for seven years. The Court adjourned at its rising, to Monday, Feb. 23. MARKET IN TELLIGEN CE. (From the London New Price Current of Feb. 10.) tSuomt.—To-day there was little desire manifested by g,*cers and refiners to purchase West Indian Sugar, but the quantity en show being scanty, merchants were enabled alt ' R ob s t;i ni in E f D o . r — m former y r o t:a d t a es. Refined goods were purchased with c ution by the home trade, 63s 6d to 64s were the rates taken f Standard Lumps, and 62s to 63 s per cwt for Brown mps. Bonded crushed Sugar is wanted , and it is difficult t purchase first quality under 34 s per cwt. AI A URITIUS.—TIdB afternoon Mauritius Sugar met with tention, and 7,347 bags 313 caskes at auction were all , ld ; the sorts under 50s per cwt brought full rates, but those above that price went a little cheaper. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon Bengal was in good demand, abd three parcels offered at public sale amounting to 2,889 hags, were sold at full rates.

Prices rule firm for Palm, and a good demand has been experienced. Cocoa Nut is little wanted, and is offered upon lower terms. Linseed 9il has been in extensive request on the spot, and prices are still on the advance. For forward delivery many contracts have been entered into. Rape Seed Oil is little wanted, and the stock is still accumu lating. In Cod a good business has been transacted, but at low rates. For Seal the demand has been only for small parcels, and the prices are rather lower. In the value of Southern little variation has occurred.

The ordinary half-yearly general meeting of this Cotnpan, was held yesteday at the London Tavern, for the transaction of the ordinary business of the Company. Wm. Chadwick, Esq., was in the chair. The advertisement calling the meeting having been read by the Secretary, The CHAIRMAN said that the prospects of the Company were most encouraging. The branch lines from the railway had already passed the standing orders—( Hear, hear)—and the reports would fully explain the position in which they stood. The report of the engineer would also be read, and if any gentleman chose to ask any question, he should be very ready to answer him as far as he could. The following report was then read : " The directors, in meeting the proprietors on the present occasion, have much pleasure in reporting that considerable progress has been made in carrying out the powers of the Act authorising the construction of this railway, and that the present position of the Company's affairs, both as regards the early completion of the line, and the cost of formation, is very satisfactory. " In consequence of the rapidity with which the works have proceeded, the directors, have found it necessary to avail themselves of the powers given to them by the pro prietors in August last. and a second call of 51. has been made on the shareholders of this Company, which is in a satisfactory course of payment. "The necessary preparations have been duly made to en able the Company to apply for an Act in the present session of Parliament to construct a branch line to Kew-bridge, which, when carried into effect, must add considerably to the revenue of this Company, as the population of Brentford and the neighbourhood, and the visitors to the gardens, will ne cessarily bring a large increase of passenger traffic.

ENGINEER'S REPORT. " TO THE DIRECTORS OF THE RICHMOND RAILWAY COMPANY. " Gentlemen,—For the information of the proprietors at the approaching meeting, I beg to inform you that since the contract was made with Mr. Knill, for the execution of all the works on this railway, considerable progress has been made towards their completion. The viaduct across the Wandle, and the cutting at Putney, being the only works of magnitude on the line, attention was first directed to them, and the progress has been very satisfactory. The viaduct is more than half built, and more than one-half of the excava tion of the entire line has been removed. Several over bridges between Putney and Barnes'-common have been built, and the lighter earthwork and bridges are proceeding as rapidly as is needibl. " The only part not begun is at Richmond end, but here the line will be formed, nearly on the surface of the ground, and a few months will suffice for completing it after posses sion of the land is obtained. " The line may be completed by June next; and if you were disposed to push, there is no reason why it should not be accomplished earlier. The works are not heavy, and delay could only arise from our inability to obtain possession of the land, or from a succession of bad weather; under any circumstances you will not be wrong in calculating on the opening in June.—l am, &c. " JOSEPH LOCKE." " London, 11, Adam-street, Adelphi, Feb. 5, 1846. Resolutions conforming to the report were then agreed to, and the meeting broke up. LONDON and BRIGHTON RAILWAY MEETING OF PROPRIETORS. The usual half-yearly meeting of the shareh o lders in this Company was held Yesterday, at the London -bridge ter imnus. The meeting was also a special one , for the purpose of sanc tioning or rejecting the formation of several branch lines, con sitting of the Croydon and Wandsworth branch, the Reigate and Dorking branch, the East Grinstead branch, the Little hampton branch, the Bognor bra nch, the Steyning branch, the Newhaven and Seaford branch, the Eastbourne branch, the Hailsham branch, the Lewes and Keymer branch devia tion; and also for other purposes, specified in the advertise ment. There was a large attendance of proprietors. Row land Hill, Esq. (the Chairman), took the chair at one o'clock precisely. After the secretary had read the advertisement, The CHAIRMAN said that it would not be necessary for him to address them at any length in consequence of the fulness of the report (which the meeting decided need not be read by the secretary, in consequence of it s having been distributed amongst the shareholders previously to the chair it the taken.) The 6th of F e bruary had arrived, and with the downfal of the three proposed schemes—the Dorking, Arundel, and Brighton Atmospheric, the Tunbridge Wells and Lewes line, and the Epsom and Dorking line, which was proposed by certain parties in oppo sition to a Bill which had been brought forward by the friends of the Croydon Company. With respect to the branches of this Company, the Wandsworth and East Grinstead had passed the Standing Orders' Committee. The Reigate and Dorking line had, however, been thrown out in consequence of some technical error. The remaining branches or lines had not yet come before the Committee, but they would in all probability go before the Standing Orders' Committee that day. With the view of furthering the interests of the public and the Company, the directors had during the past half-year reduced the fares and accelerated the speed of travelling on this Company's line. —(Cheers.) The present depressed price of the shares of this. Comppny was equivalent to a twenty-five years' purchase on the dividend. That fact arose from an anticipated increase in the dividend, which antici pation, he doubted not, would be fully realised.—(Hear, hear.) The directors were determined to do everything which would make the line more attractive to the public, who were, in his opinion, not properly aware of the cheap- PUBLICATIO-iS. 3u Sunday, February lb, Stamped, price Sixpence, size of the " Times," T " WEEKLY NEWS , A GENERAL NEWSPAPER, BUT PARTICULARLY DEVOTED TO TUE INTERESTS OF MUNICIPAL, COR PORATE, AND rAaoettukt.

(Sittings at Nisi Prins, before Mr. Justice COLTMAN and a Middlesex Special Jury, at Westminster.) GAMBLE V. KURTZ. This case (which occupied Saturday and Monday, and the greater part of this day's sitting), was resumed at the meeting of the Court this day, when several further wit nesses were heard in support of the defendant's case, to prove that his machinery was not an infringement upon the plaintiff's patent, &c. Drs. Lyon Playfair and Pratt, of Liverpool, were among those witnesses. The case for the defence having concluded, and counsel having replied on be half of the plaintiff, the Learned Judge summed up, and the jury retired at about three o'clock to consider their ver dict. After having been in consultation for nearly five hours, they returned into Court with a special verdict, in the following terms :—" Assuming that the models were correct, we find that the patent had been infringed. Secondly, that the invention of the two separate chambers, or furnaces, is not new, but that the plaintiff's mode of connecting the same is new. Thirdly, that the specification is sufficient; and, fourthly, that the process patented is an improvement upon the old system of preparing sulphate of soda." This verdict was not delivered till nearly eight o'clock at night. • COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Feb. 10. (Post Terminal Sittings at Nisi Prins, before the LORD CHIEF BARON and a Special Jury.) THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. THE GOLDSMITHS' COMPANY OF CHESTER. This was an information, filed by the Attorney-General against the defendants, tbr the recovery of penalties alleged to have been incurred by them in consequence of stamping certain gold watch cases with the standard assay mark when the quality of the gold was of less value than eighteen carats, the fineness which the statute requires for such articles The ATTORNEY- GENERAL stated the facts of the case, in corroboration of which he called the following witnesses : Mr. T. Kaye deposed that he was in the employment of Roskil and Son, Liverpool, at the time when the occurrence took place. First received the watch case numbered 49,941 from Mr. Jones on the 18th January, 1645. It was then in the rough state to have the movements fitted. When it was returned to Mr. Jones, on the 19th January, it had the number upon it. That watch case was amongst the number of watch cases then before him, as was also the others men tioned in the information. Mr. Christopher Jones, a watch case maker, John Munro, a shopman, and John Taylor, a carrier, were examined for the purpose of proving that the watches in question were those which were sent to the company to be assayed. Mr. Harding, a drawer in the assay-otfice in London, de posed to the mode of proceeding adopted with regard to assays. They sometimes assayed the cases by themselves and sometimes the wires, or in any other way they thought it most likely to detect any error. Mr. Jeremiah Fuller examined—Was the assayer for fifteen years of the Goldsmiths' Company of London. He used his own weights in assaying. Received drawings of the SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

Mr. Best, and is now undergoing considerable repairs. The parties concern e d are Th omas Molard Shurmur and Thomas Braley, both employed en the premises, the former as fore man, and the latter as timekeeper. It appears that Shurmur lost a sum of money, stated to be 521., from his dwelling-house in the town where Braley lodges, and, having suspicious he was the thief, he accused him of it, which was denied by hint. Shurmur, it ap pears, mentioned his loss to Mr. Baverstock, the contractor, and also his suspicions. Mr. Baverstock advised them to go into the office and settle the matter between themselves in the best manner they could, which they said they would. On entering the office Shurmur locked the door, and after putting the key in his pocket asked Braley to tell him what he had done with the money. Braley again denied the theft, whereupon Shurmur took a pistol from his packet and said, " If you will not tell me what you have done with it, I will shoot you," and immediately fired at him. The report of dee pistol and cries of Braley soon biougra wicnc of the workmen to the spot, and, after forcing open the door, poor Fraley fell into the passage covered with blood. The ball had entered on the left side of his face, near the corner of the nose, and come out behind his ear. Medical aid was immediately called in, but little hopes are entertained of his recovery. Shurmur did not attempt to make his escape, and was taken into custody by Mr. Van Santen, the superintendent of the rural police, and brought to Andover, where the magistrates were sitting, and alter the facts of the case were stated he was remanded, to give the police time to get the witnesses together. Braley continues perfectly sensible, but denies having stolen the money. It is stated that Shurmur on the same morning borrowed the pistol of his sister.in -law, and, having loaded it with powder only, he took it to a gunsmith of the name of Feuthrop, and had a new flint put into it, remarking to Fouthrop that he was going to frighten a fellow that had robbed lihn ; he also procured some bullets from a neighbour, telling him the same as he told the gun smith. Shurniur is a very respectable man, and was formerly a sus voyor and auctioneer of this town ; but, being unfortunate in bast ness, he repaired to London, and about twelve months ago hearing that Red Rice-house was partly to be rebuilt, he sought and obtained the situation of foreman, which he has held till this occurrence took place. Shurmur was again brought up for examination this day be tore the Rev. C. Randolph, and again remanded to await the issue. FINGUL A It DISCoVERY.
