At a Meeting of the Shareholders in the Clitheroe Junction Railway Company, held at the Star Inn, in Manchester, in the county of Lancaster, on Saturday, the 19th day of September, 1846, pursuant to an Act passed in the tenth year of the reign of her pre sent Majesty Queen Victoria, intituled "An Act to facilitate the dis solution of certain Railway Companies," Samuel Ashton, Esq., one of the Committee, was elected Chairman, and Frederick Copley llulton, Thomas Birkbeck, and John Harrison, Esqrs., three of the shareholders in the said Company, were elected Scrutineers, pursuant to the said Act. It was, thereupon, moved and seconded— " That the Clitheroelunction Railway Company be forthwith dis solved, pursuant to an Act intituled An Act to facilitate the disso lution of certain Railway Companies,' and that the dissolution of the Cqmpany shall not be taken to be an act of bankruptcy, but that the affairs of the Company be wound up according to the rules applicable to the dissolution of partnership undertakings." The Chairman having put the question, and the Scrutineers pro ceeded to record and cast up the votes, declared that persons repre senting nine thousand five hundred and fifty-three shares, being at least one-third part of the shares in the undertaking actually issued, were present, and had voted in favour of both questions. The Chair man thereupon declared that both questions had been carried in conformity with the provisions of the Act under which the meetinz had been held. SAMUEL ASHTON, Chairman.

The object of this Company is to construct a direct anti continuous line of railway, on the narrow gauge, from Cheltenham, through 'Northleach, Burford, and Witney, to Oxford, and thence, by Theme, to form a junction with the London and Birmingham Railway, at once opening the shortest route from those towns and the surround ing districts to the metropolis, and by means of the Oxford and BlEtchley, and other lines in connexion therewith, to Bedford, Cam bridge, Norwich, and the %hole of the eastern side of the kingdom. The undertaking is promoted by parties locally interested in the district through which the line will pass,• in conjunction with the -shareholders in the Oxford, Witney, Cheltenham, and Gloucester Independent Company, who introduced a Bill into Parliament during the session which has just closed for making the line between Oxford and Cheltenham, which failed upon technical objections only. It will be the anxious desire of the Committee to consult the wishes of the inhabitants as to the terminus and mode of approaching the town of Cheltenham. l h A large proporti on o f th e c apital will be subscribed by the London and the outlay, n u Railway Company, who have also agreed to lume the line in p er p e t u it y , a t a ren t equal to four and a half per cent. upon o h , e th wit e n d a is r t i a e u q c u e al be e C o h f e s l u t r e p u l h u a s m pr a tts This e London t 100 miles, the present route, and the distance between Oxford and London will account the saving in time arising from the Railway,mor be shorter than by the Great Westernwithout taking posi i t n io t n o of the London Tenth p l art nus ies a g t o E in u g st t o u n i s_ l q e uare as compared with ,Pad dington,to which, to the gauge communication of rail- v,m,aeytrotrpaovilesilimnga.y be Au considered uubmkeii s narrowneal will also be effected by means of this line between the Docks and of London and those of Glon - Cesier, and there is no d ou b t eventually Port with Bristol, an object of c onsiderable comm ercial importance. Worcester, and the important district of which it forms the centre, will also be brought by this line within the same distance of London as by any other lines sanctioned by Parliament. It having been decided by Parliament that (with some exceptions, not applying to the present case) all new lines of railway shall here after be constructed on the narrow gauge, it is obvious that the traffic of the districts accommodated by the proposed line will be best deve loped by a Company in connexion with the existing narrow gauge lines, giving, at the same time, to the public the advantages of that competition which the Legislature have recently evinced their anxiety to establish between rival Companies. ' Applications for Shares may be made, in the form given below, to the Secretary, at the Temporary Offices of the Company, 29, Great George street, Westminster. ,In the allotment of Shares, a prefer ence will be given to parties resident on the Line, or having local interest. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES, To the Provisional Committee of the London, Oxford, and Chelten- • ham Railway (provisonally registered). Gentlemen,—[ request you will allot me shares in the above, undertaking on the terms of the Prospectus, and I agree to accept the same or such less number as you shall allot to me.

Description rw Reference...• • • •• . • • • • Very IMPORTANT and VALUABLE FREEHOLD ESTATE, embracing the entire PARISH of ADDINGTON, free of Tithes and Land-tax, and almost of Poor-rates, with its spacious Mansion, excellent Manor for Game, the Advowson, and several first-rate Grazing and Dairy Farms, extending nearly to the town of Win slow, and only five miles from the county and borough town of Buckingham, distinguished as the family seat and domain of the late Hon. General Vere Poulett, forming a singularly eligible and solid investment for capital, in a proverbially rich and fine sporting country. MESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON are commissioned to announce that the above remarkably valuable and truly important FREEHOLD ESTATE will be SOLD by AUCTION, at the Mart, near the Bank of England, on THURS DAY, 24th of September (unless an acceptable offer shall be previ ously made by private treaty). It . comprises the spacious and substantial MANSION OF AD DINGTON, with walled garden, capital stabling, &c., placed on a gentle elevation, nearly in the centre of one of the MOST FERTILE DOMAINS in the county, embracing the entire parish, nearly encircled by a fine brook, and chiefly rich grazing and dairy land, the whole tithe free, and let to old respectable tenants at rents amounting to about 2,6001. per an num. The perpetual Advowson, with its parsonage and glebe, and the Manor, which is well stocked with game, appertain to the es tate. The timber is nearly all elm, a certain proof of the fertility of the soil. The high turnpike road from Aylesbury to Buckingham passes through the pronerty, close to the town of Winslow, and it is within a very easy distance of the several markets of Buckingham, Bicester, Stony Stratford; &c. This description of grass land is unlikely to be affected by any charrye as to Corn-laws or Tariffs, and the property therefore presents, with its peculiar and great local ad vantages, an indisputably fine and choice property for the invest ment of money, with a most enjoyable domain for reshlence, b- lug in a perfectly rural district, and in the centre of several packs of hounds. A station on the Buckinghamshire Railway will be very near. The property may be viewed by application to Mr. King, surveyor, Winslow, of whom particulars may be had ; also of Messrs. Walker and Gridley, solicitors, 5, Southampton-street; of Messrs. Karslake and Crealock, solicitors, Carlton Chambers, Regent•street ; and every information obtained of Messrs.

Also, in a separate lot, THE WEST-END PARK ESTATE, con sisting of nearly sixty acres of good park-like meadow and arable land, with the ancient mansion and offices (out of repair), and a good modern cottage, with walled garden, &c., attached. This estate is copyhold of the Manor of Wargrave, but the measures for improving this tenure, which have lately received the sanction of the Legislature, will no doubt, in a few years, render it equal to freehold. Particulars may be had, when the day of sale is fixed, at their Of in Waterloo-place, Pall-mall, and Windsor ; of Messrs.

The Qicen and Prince Albert took their accustomed parly waik, yesterday, in the pleasure grounds of Os borne House. The Royal Children took airings in the rides and plan tations on Sunday afternoon. Colonel Bowles left Osborne House yesterday, for town. Her Majesty and Prince Albert will, it is expected. leave 06borne House this morning, for Windsor Castle. Her Royal Highness the Princess of Prussia, attended by the Countess Haack and Count Puckler, arrived at the Euston-square terminus yesterday morning, from Cashiobury Park, Herts, the residence of her Majesty the Queen Dowager. The Princess was received by his Excellency the Chevalier Bunsen, the Earl of Denbigh, and Baron Witzleben. Her Royal Highness, attended by the whole suite, visited and inspected Guildhall, the Mansion House, the East India House, and the General Post-office. The Princess afterwards proceeded to Marlborough House Pall mall. At a quarter before two o'clock the Princess of Prus sia, accompanied by his Serene Highness Prince Edward of Saxe Weimar, and attended by the Countess Haack and Count Puckler, left Marlborough House in an open carriage to pay a visit to their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, at their residence at Kew. A dejeuner was served soon after her Royal High ness's arrival. The Princess of Prussia remained to dinner with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and the Hereditary Grand Duchess of Mecklenburg Strelitz. The Cheva lier Bunsen, Prussian Minister, and a select party, had the honour of joining the royal circle at dinner. In the evening the Princess of Prussia, accompanied by Prince Edward of Saxe Weimar, returned to Marlbo rouith House. His Royal Highness the Hereditary Grand Duke of Mecklenhurg Strelitz left town on Saturday for Tun bridge Wells. Sir Stratford Canning transacted business at the Foreign-office yesterday. Dispatches were received on Sunday at the Colonial office from the Governors of the West India colonies. STRAND THEATRE. " And then there was Mr. Martin Archer Shee's Alasco, Which, if the Chamberlain hadn't refused to license it, would have been afiasco," sung poor Theodore Hook ; and undoubtedly in those days Alasco, had it been represented, would have been represented not once, but only part of once, for the audience would never have tamely sub mitted to the infliction of the five dull acts which were perpetrated by the now President of the Royal Academy. We will not, however, venture to prophecy what might be its fate if represented in the present day, seeing that the Maid o f W arsaw , a ver y, diluted edition of Alasco, was received last night with great applause at the Strand Theatre. The plot of this drama is very simple. Ulric Sobeiski (Mr. Gregory), a patriotic Pole, rouses his countrymen into rebellion a g ainst their Russian oppre,sors. His sist e r E va (M rs . Percy), who is betrothed to Werter (Mr. Carle), a Polo, falls into the power of the Russian commander, Brutan dorff (Mr. Waldron), who ! , of , course, makes love to her; and alai), of course,'" his love: is. rejected. Ulric arrives nt the fortress,' by , a secret Passage, just in the nick of time- to save Eva from the ravisher.l. Ulric is arrested, rind sentenced to the as a traitor. He is shut up in a dungeon, and has .an interview with Eva, whose virtue is made the price of his life, in which he urges her to resist to the last, and expresses his willingr,ess to die !for his sister and his country. By order of the ;tyrant. he is led forth to execution in the sight of Eva, who falls dead, but the executioner's axe is arrested in its descent by the `victory of the Poles, who rescue Ulric, who kills Brutandorff, and falls upon the neck of Werter, the affirmed of Eva, and the cumin falls amidst the cries of triumph of the regenerated Poles. The dia logue is, of course, seasoned with " Liberty," "Poland," " Tyranny," " Oppre,sion, " O ur country ." Sze., &c., and all the usual patri o ti c c l aptraps—a dd a cowar dl y Russian corporal, ena c t e d b y Mr. Attwood, who endeavoured strenuously, with au energy worthy a better cause, to " make fun," and you have the tragedy. It is long and heavy, and absolutely without interest ; and, as a specimen of the dialogue, we give the following extract from a speech spoken by Mrs. Percy in the cha racter of Eva:— "I feel around me coiled a rope of ice, That like some creeping reptile, &c." Now, we should like to see a pictorial illustration of this passage. 'A rope of ice would of itself' be a novelty ; but a rope of ice like a creeping reptile would beat the "What is it." The only thing that.sav, d the play was the acting of Mr. Gregory and Mrs. Percy, both of whom exerted themselves to the utmost, and saved the play. But we would put it seriously t ) Mr. Gregor 3 who, we presume, having weathered the storm, which was most unjustly raised against him, intends seriously to make the stage his profession—whether he is not risk ing his fame by thus lending himself to make bad plays. Were he firmly fixed upon the stage he might afford to do so; but he cannot do so yet, because there are those who would be but too glad to visit the defects of the play upon the actor, and say, that, although in Shakspe rian characters, where he can imitate others, he may be passable, he:cannot create a part. We are not of this opinion—we believe that Mr. Gregory is a great actor, but as yet he cannot afford to waste his powers on such characters as Ulric. We would advise him to turn his attention to known characters which have at pre sent no representatives on the stage. For in stance, Z Int i m -in the Revenge, or Pierre in Venice Preserved, or a character which, if- we mis take not, he represented with great success, as • one of the Shaksperians, and which will also prove his versa tility, Falstaff. These are characters which we should recommend him to make his own before he attempts to create a new part. There are also many of our old plays which he might revive, such as The cardinal of Shirley, with great effect ; and when he has thoroughly established himself in these parts, then he may attempt to create new characters, and he will find authors who can write willing and eager to back him. We throw out these hints, because we believe Mr. Gregory to be en dowed with histrionic genius. If such were not our firm opinion, we should treat him as an amateur, and "let him gang his ain gait." The house was crowded, and Mr. Gregory and Mrs. Percy were called for at the fall of the curtain. TO TOURISTS IN SCOTLAND. AND IN THE ENGLISH LAKE DISTRICT.

In abundance and variety of incident it is marvellous. It unites the wild fancy of the Fairy or_the Arabian tale with the artistic indi viduality of the modern romance. The verisimilitude of the elabo ration is as masterly as the fertility of invention is surprising; and the descriptions of persons, of accessories, and scenery, are as vivid as pictures."—Spectator.

The unusually fine weather of the present season has not been allowed by the proprietors to pass unheeded; the public have therefore, at short intervals, been presented in rapid succession, with al fresco breakfasts, balloon ascents, bale champetres, &c. The announcement, that yesterday evening's ascent would be the last made by Mr. Green for some time, succeeded in attracting vast crowds to the gardens, - which were at an early hour thronged to excess by a very respectable company, who appeared highly de lighted with the process of infrating the balloon, which was performed through the medium of the huge dry gas meter. At about - five o'clock, all the preparations having been satisfactorily concluded, Mr. Green entered the car, and the balloon was allowed to 'ascend into the regions of air. The wind blew somewhat strongly from the east; the balloon was therefore soon lost to the view of the gratified spectat ors assem b led accompanied in friend s .

Two or three parties, whose deficits are, fortunately, not very heavy, were not forthcoming, but, in the main, it was decidedly good.

PRESIDENT OF THE RZPUBLIO OF NUEVA GRANADA, AT BOGOTA, JULY 2. 1846. • Granadians,—When I entered on the exercise of the supreme power t-) which I was called by the voice of the people and votes of the Congress, I found the republic threatened with disturbances in the south. I took the oath required by the constitutio , , and I engaged to dis charge my duties faithfully, to be guided by the la‘ss, and to do all the good in my power for the nation. It has been my constant endeavour to avoid all revolution cry contagicn, and, preserving the strictest n•utralitv in regard to the dissensions prevailing in -the Equador, to refute by my acts the accusation of being favour the to the policy of the then existing Government in the Eqnador. It, however, our relations with that republic becemp so complicated as to renler it necessary to apply to Congress for permission to go to.war in ease they should not do us justice, I adopted that line of conduct which had prescribed for myst-lf so soon as I ascertained the tendency of that regulation, and the nature of the risks we had to . meet. The appointment I made of an able and prudent ge neral to the command of the first division gave them to understand that it was not the love of martial glOry which actuated ma, and the result has corresponded with my expectation. The present administration of the Equader, anitnat. d by the most patriotic sentiments, have investigated and discussed any disputed points with an interest truly American. Through the medium of a public functionary and the general commanding in the south the utmost cordiality prevails at preser.t iu the re lations between the Columbian states, and peace has been firmly re established ; both Goverrmeuts have signified their _ prompt approbation of the conditions agreed to, in the true spirit of that 'desire to promote the friendship and union which serves as a basis for interna tional communication. Granadia%s—Peace is serured to us; we have given a noble proof of our wish to preserve it amongst kindred nations. I entreat you to t.,rego and forget all grounds of complaint. Let us, by our conduct and setting the -xample, effect a complete reconciliation with our bre thren of the Equador, so that all doubts may be diAsi pated from amongst them of the discontented beim enabled to occasion disorders under favour of our arms. This sentiment has operated powerfully on my 'Lied, and induced me to accept the olive branch of peace held out on our frontiers by the Envoy of the Equador. It ought, likewise, to have due weight with you in eradi cating all antipathies and sympathies for one or other of those who were once our fellow-countrymen. Citizens—The public order is maintained and peace secured. I call on you to assist me in the important work of national improvement which I commenced im mediately on my assuming the supreme power of the nation. You all know my administrative programme in this respect; and I rely on your effective co-operation in opening channels for the exportation of our produce, and the exploration of our mines. Steam navigation will soon be seen on our coasts, and shortly after ex tended to the Magdelena. To these improvements the immigration of useful labour will so ,n follow, when the national prosprity will he the best guarantee for the preservation of order and of our independence. The rights of p-operty shall be respected, and your personal liberty shall not be viola'ed. Such are the du ties of theGosernment and its officials. The tribunals and magistrates execute the laws rightly, and we have nothing to wish for i❑ this capital but that those laws should be made perfect and their working simplified. The Zeal which the National Congress displayed in the session of 1846, with that I shall employ to bring to completion the useful works I have referred to, will insure the perfect organisation of civil and criminal processes in the course of next year. The important reforms made in the revenue depart ments, agreeably to the laws passed on that subject, have commanded, together with the public works, my immediate attention, and called to my assistance the most intelligent of our compatriots, and which was so necessary to promote the measures I had undertaken under the sanction, and with the aid of your represen tatives. Fellow-citizens--If at another time I led you, by order of the then Government, to victory, I now call on you to march with united energy to a more solid glory, to a civic victory; that the reconciliation begun by the adtni nistration of 1841 may be consolidated, that no one may talk of past troubles, and that all Granadians may hoist but one standard. Ir. our fatherland there might not to exist two parties, one of the conquerors and another of the conquered ; such have been my sentiments ever since I took charge of the executive powers, and such should be yours, in order to furnish proofs of your civilisation. In govern ment affairs there should be no dissensions, since the duties we nave all to perform arc prescribed by the 11ws. and whocver ntre.rupts to injure the working of bur constitution c.ennot be a , good cit.z,n. Should think that in the course of my administra tion I should not be guided by principles the most expe dient and necessary, you can discuss the question through the much-appreciated liberty of the press, which is duly respected, and which I am bound to respect. Those who wish to address any observations to the Government direct, may rely that they shall be fully considered and duly investigated, to ascertain if they are just and rea sonable. Those gentlemen who have been selected and appointed to the political and financial de pat tments of the state, profess the same identical principles set forth in my messages addressed to the Legislative body; they are, however, at libery to resign whenever their opinions do net coincide with those entertained by the Govern ment. Should the opposition in the Cortes constitute a large r majority than that which now supports me, it shall share in the Government with me, for such is the prac tice made perfect by the aspicious representative system on which our constitution is founded ; by the same rule I shall continue to nominate and appoint those who exe cute the orders of the Executive Government. • Citizens—Arnwd in defence of your country, you are distinguished for your love of \ order and of liberty ; and I congratulate you on your having fuifitled the duties the constitution and the laws impose on you. On a former occasion I had to appreciate your courage and your privations. You were my companions on many a dreary day, but now you are the guardians of your country's prescribed rights. You have acquired the most enviable glory, that of citizen soldiers ! . _ On such a solemn occasion as the present, when I address you in consequence of the public peace being secured, I consider the present a favourable opp Ttunity on public gr, unds, to exercise the more agreeable duty with which the constitution has invested the Executive Power, that of granting an amnesty to several Gra nadians, who, having deserted their duty, offended the laws. I hope and trust that they will return repentant to their respective homes, and become as good citizens as the immense majority of their countrymen. " Granadiansl I s - aiute you, and repeat the assurance of being your friend and fellow citizen. (Signed) " T. C. DE MOSQUEIRA. " Bogota. July 2, 1846." THE RIVER PLATE. LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 21.—8 y the Margaretta, which arrived off Cape Clear on Saturday last, we have ad vices from Monte Video to the 14th of July. The 45th Regiment had departed for the Cape of Good Hope on the 4th, in her Majesty's ship Resistance, and the 73d Rogimeut was to leave in a few days for the same destination. A letter, dated July 13, says : " By this it would appear that the crisis is at hand. Certainly, the arrival of the steamer Dovastation, with Mr. Hood on board, has created a great sensation. Mr. Hood arrived on the 3d. Orders had been received to place 100 men on the lines, to repair the holes and to build up the trenche.s. "It is evident," says the writer above quoted, "from the conflicting orders issued, that Hood and Rosas were fighting for the mastery." Rivera was reported to have retired to Las Vaccas, as a considerable force had collected in his neighbour hood to oppose him. A whale boat had just arrived at Monte Video, from Buenos Ayres, with dispatches, but their import had not transpired. It was stated that Baron Mareuil, the French Minis ter,-had arrive I at Buenos Ayres, in the steamer St. Juan d'Ulloa, direct from France. FEARFUL RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—As the nine F.M. train was leaving Rugby station for Leicester, on Satur day last, an engine belonging to the London and North- Western Riilway Company was standing below the points at which the Midland line diverges from the for mer ; no sooner had the engine and tender passed the points, than the engine-driver of the London and North- Western Company turned on his steam, and the result was that the engine ran into the train before it had cleared the line, broke four of the carriages, throwing them off the rails, and tearing up the latter for some distance, whilst several of the passengers were seriously shaken and bruised. Mr. Hudson, the chairman to the Midland Company, but better known as the " Railway King," was in one of the carriages, but escaped unhurt. Assistance was promptly rendered to the sufftrers, to whom every attention was paid by the officials of the London and North-Western Company, and, after a de tention of about an hour, the passengers were placed in carriages belonging to the latter company, and for warded on their journey. The guard was so seriou-dy injured that he was obliged to be left behind. We un derstand that the engine driver, through whose careless ness the accident occurred, will undergo an examination before the magistrate. The Prince and Princess of Salerno left Brussels this morning at eight o'clock. SIR ROBERT PEEL AT IlomE.—On Wednesday last about two hundred neighbours, servants, and other friends of Sir Robert Peel, were entertained by the Right Hon. Baronet and his lady, near his residence at Dray ton Manor, at dinner and tPa. After dinner the numbers greatly increased, and dancing; besides a Tariety of rui tic games and pastimes, commenced. Sir Robert and his lady seemed to enjoy the festivities as heartily as any person present. Toe day was very unfavourable, but in the evening the weather cleared up, and contributed much to the enjoyment of all present. The kind and affable manner in which Sir Robert and his lady entered into the enjoyment of his party diffused general happi ness.—Birminaham Journal.

PIG KILLING.—On Wednesday last, a strong mustor of knights of the cleaver took place at Ely, to see a match come off. between Hall, of Cambridge, and Thomas Shearman, of E!y, for 151. aside, he who could scald, dress, and clean two ten stone pigs in the best style in the shortest time to be declared the winner. An umpire having been appointed, and arrangements com pleted, Hall won the toss for the choice of pigs. Shear man then put to work the knife and steel in a good work manlike and expert manner, accomplishing his work in the short space of fifteen minutes and ten seconds. Hall then went to work, but was less fortunate than his com petitor, not being able to finish his task in lezN than twenty-one minutes. Of course, Shearman was declared the winner, much to the annoyance of many of Hall's friends, who ss ere sanguine of his success.—Cambridge Chronicle. _ We regret to state that Lady Wetherell and her aged mother, the Hon. Mrs. Warn e f or d, on S aturday sustained another domestic bereavement, by the demise of Mrs. Long, sister to the former, and d aug h ter to t h e latter, who expired at her residence, near the N ew - roa d, after a protracted illness.

Several-children aie said to have been burnt, and many hundred sheep . perished in the flames. • BRUSSELS, SEPT. 17.—Yesterday, about ore oVock, the opening of the beautiFul sluice of Heysh took place. This ceremony attracted a great concourse of spectators from Bruges and from the neighbouring places, who were eager-to be present at a fête so important to the iuhabi- - tants of Flanders, as it indicates the completion of one of the most useful works which have been undertaken for many'years, and which will prntect the two proviaces of Flanders from the annual ravages of inundation..

In the c )urse of the year 27,622 bathers, 35,480 washers and dryers of clothes, and 4,522 'Toners, have made use of the premises. The working expenses have been under 1-i s d. a heAl,alhough soap is allowed to each bath er , anti a portion of soap and soda to each -washer of clothes. Quiet, orderly, and civil conduct has universally prevailed amongst those fre quenting the establishment. At the caturnencomeat of the experiment there were only two baths, and t suit the demand to the na.ans, six persons had to use the same water succesively ; by greater dexterity, the re sult of practice, and the addition of two other baths, two or three persons at the utmost were permitted t) use the same water. Since the erection of two more baths, six altogether, each individual bathing is supplied with pure warm water, soap, and a clean towel, (etc , pt where merra hers of a family desire to bathe together. The water has been supplied gratuitously by the East London Waterworks Comp my. FIRE ori A ItAlLwAY.—On Saturday last, as a merchandise train was going along the London and Nor.h- Western Railway, a piece of ignited coke escaped from the engine when near the W olverton station, and dropped on the tarpauling covering the truck; from the inflam mable nature of the materials the flames rapidly spread to three other trucks, the contents of which were nearly destroyed before sufficient assistance could be rendered; one of the trucks was laden with a valuable cargo of indigo. It is but justice to state that the London and North-Western Company have taken every precaution in their power to guard against such casualties as the foregoing, by directing the servants in their employ to throw a quantity of water on the covering of the trucks, at short intervals; but from the extensive warmth that has prevailed during the summer, the tarpaulings have been so heated as to ignite upon coming in contact with the smallest portion ot fire. KINGSWINFORD.—FATAL MINE A CCIDENT.—A fatal accident occurred on Thursday week, to a man named James Millington, whose death was occasioned by an explosion ef sulphur in a pit which he worked at Hart's Hill. The 1111lIft was considered perfectly safe, and had been examined with the safety lamp, but the loul,air is so rapid in its accumulation, large quantities being frequently liberated in the working of the mine, that before the men became aware of it the explosion took place. Several poor fellows were badly burnt, one of whom, named Thomas Winwood, expired a short time after at Millington. The others are in a fair way of recovery.—Birmingham Jon' nal. SERIOUS ACCIDENT NEAR THE EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY.—On Sunday evening. about six o'clock, an accident, attended with serious consequences, happened to a lady and gentleman named Marks, residing at Rod ney-terrace West, Milo- end- road, neer the Mary land paint-bridge of the Eastern Countit s Railway (Colchester line), at Stratford. Mr. and airs. Marks had been cut For an evening drive, and were returning over the above bridge, when the engine driver of one of the trains " blew off his steam ;" 'tad tha shrillness of the whistle caused the horse in the chaise to start off at a furious rate. Mr. Marks di l all he could to stop the speed ot the horse, but without doing it, and on getting- to the corner of Well-street, the wheel came in ‘iolcnt cot-tact with the lamp-post at the corner, and both were thrown rut of it. They - were picked up in a state of and carried into the Cart tvol Horse public-hr-use, where they were attended by Mr. Valiance, surgeon, Stratford. They were subsequently enabled to be removed to their 'residence in a fly. DEATH OF LIEUT.-GENERAL OWEN.—Ließtenant- General Robert Owen, one of the oldest as well as one of the most distinguished officers in the British army, ex pired on Friday last, at his scat near Dublin, at the ad vanced age of 82, no less than 64 of which were spent in the service of his country. He entered the army as an infantry offices' in 1782, a somewhat momentous period, and was then but 18 years of age. His services were of a most distinguished character, though confined to the early wars of the Georgian reign. He took part at the siege of Fort Bownbow, and the captures of the Islands of Martinique, St. Lucia, and Guadeloupe, in 1794. He was also present in the different actions when the latter island was attacked by the French se-a and land troops in 1795. On his arrival in England he commenced the dir..ction or the movements with regard to the troops doing home duty, and was not, in conse quence, employed in the Peninsular and other wars that followed. On the occasion of a brevet in 1841, he re ceived a lieutenant-generalship, but. unfortunately no other honours awaited him. He never recciaed the colonelcy of a regiment, nor was he decorated. ' FROST, WILLIAMS, AND JONES,—From-a, private letter, addressed to one of our correspondents, dated " Hobart Town, April 20, 1846," by a gentleman resi dent in that colony, we learn that Frost, the leader of the Chartist body at Monmouth, was at that period a clerk or warehouseman in a large grocery establishment. That Williams is still in the police force of the colony, at the same salary as paid to the other constables. or.e shilling and ninepence per day; he bears the character of being c a gouonotdoofflihieser. good o c n o e r s id w u ' e a in h t s he t v,, e as iol appointed )i also, but as sguloun e dato the mail, and recommended for indulgence.; he has since received his ticket of leave, and was living at the date of the letter with a watchmaker at Launceston, at a good salary. It is a remarkable fact that Sergeant Hadlev, who filled the post of " principal drill" in the Birming ham police force, under the late Commissioner, is now filling a similar situation in the police force of the above colony under the same gentleman. Hadley, it appears, was transported for embezzlement some time siuce.— Birmingham Journal. A CURIOUS CIRCUMSTANCE.—On the forenoon of Monday last, while some boys were-witching a pair of swallows feeding.their young, behind Charlotte -street, a hawk, skimming along the eaves of the houses, suddenly pounced upon the nest and carried away two of the brood. One of the parent birds having witnessed the onslaught, instantly gave utterance to a peculiar cry, which, a; by the power of incantation, quickly convened a noisy and enraged swarm of comrades from all quar ters, who, with one consent, gave chase to the destro3er, and overtakng him ere he had got half across the Itch, commenced such a desperate attack that he soon gave evident signs of being frailly (ma-mastered. and ulti mately sought the ground at a short distance from the Fishers' Lolge, where he bravely tried his best to repel the onsets of his assaulters, hut was compelled to relin quish his prey and seek for safety in inglorious flight. After his departure, which was effeetad under no little molestation, the swallows then set shout the conveyance of the young ones to the nest, Which, it is said, they effected irrfine style, and seemingly to the satisfaction of the whole tribe, who gave urnise,akeable signs of being more than usually please d on the occasion.—tratmore Journal. THE BISHOPRIC OF MANCHESTER. —The death of Dr. Carey, Bishop of St. Asaph, gives rise to the con solidation of the two see- of St. Asaph and Banger in one s2e according to the Act of Parliament of 1836, and the order in council of 1838; but needs the consent of the Bishop of Bangor to carry it into effect, otherwise it must remain in st.itu quo until the death of that prelate, when the two sees will become the united see of St. Asaph and Bangor. As the present net annual revenue of the see of Bangor is only 4,4641, and the amount of the revenue of the proposed united see is fixed at 5,2001., we can hardly suppoSe that Dr. Bethel, the present Bishop of Banger, will recline the offer of the united see, with an additional revenue of 7361. a year. Assuming that this prelate acce=pts the united see, then one consequence of that act, as we understand the Order in Council, is the erection of Manchester into a bishopric forthwith.— Manchester Guardian. EXTRAORDINARY PRODUC E OF HoNnr.—Last week the gardener of James Wintle, Esq., Grey Friars, in this city, took from one stock of bees in that gentle man's garden, a comb weighing no less than 851b5.; the net weight of the honey which it yielded was near 601bs. —Gloucester Chro,ticle.
