General Tom Thumb (now in Scotland. from whence he pro ceeds to Ireland), respectfully announces that in consequence of many persons having been disappointed in seeing him in London (as his Levees were suspended on account of a slight cold), he will visit London in March or April next, for a short time only, previous to sailing for America. To save the public from Imposition, they are informed that various persons at the penny shows in Holborn and the Fairs, and one also at the Egyptian Hall, have assumed the name of "TOM THUMB," but that the smallest among them is at least four times the General's weight and size.

REPEAL OF THE CORN-LAWS. The publication of a manifesto by Mr. James Adam Gordon, one of the largest landowners in the county of Somerset, in favour of a repeal of the corn-laws, has spread dismay throughout the protectionist camp in that county, and must by its natural and legitimate in• fluence upon society tend very much to diminish, if not entirely to neutralise, the attempts which Mr. William Miles and the bread-tax party are making to stir up a feeling against the anti-corn-law movement. A few years since Mr. Gordon was an avowed ad vocate of protection, and was then triumphantly pointed to by those holding consonant opinions as one of the pillars of their strength in Somersetshire and the western counties. What can they say now ? Mr. Gordon is as wealthy, as talented, and as powerful as he was in 1841. He is still the lord of very_ t m hf ce a ta n hfn y re i thousa nd estneimadrcse seoltfyh ra acres betepeohavales raf. over - valued . at f land, still holds the mano rial rights of Abbott's Leigh, Portbury, St. George, Portishead, an d N or th W estern , an d st ill moves i n t h e same influ en ti a l c i rc l e .

THE EARL OF WALDEGRAVE, EAST RARPTREE COURT, &C. "My Lord,—l have the honour to acknowledge your Lordship's invitation to become a member of the Somer set Protection Society. More than a year ago I de clined a similar invitation from Mr. Miles and Sir Alexander Hood, and I have many more reasons for doing so now. In 1841 I was a strenuous protectionist; Under the circumstances of that time I am persuaded I actedrightly. Thoie of 1846 ire widely different, and I am as well satisfied with the reasons which compel me to advocate a repeal of the corn laws as any one can be fOr retaining his former opinions against it. " I have ever placed the utmost reliance on Sir R. Peel, and see no grounds for departing from it now. In his hands I have no fear whatever of the result, and even when farmers have not gone very deep into the subject, I daily find them admitting that any state is better than that, of the uncertainty and agitation of which all parties are now the victims. " I believe, with Sir Thomas Lethbridge, in his letter to the Duke of Richmond, that ' protection is a thing gone by,' and I hope your Lordship will pardon my suggesting a doubt of the policy of protectionist land lords putting arguments and weapons into their tenants' hands to use against themselves, for the reduction of their rents, when the inevitable repeal shall . hive taken place.—l have the honour to be, my Lord, your obedient servant, JAMES ADAM GORDON.

A remedy or an alternative was sought in vain ; the existence of a journal, with a circulation to answer the purposes of a sufficient publicity for advertisements, remained a desideratum. This want appears to be now supplied by the " Iron Times," and the projectors of the "Iron Times" Newspaper Company have per ceived—in the manner in which that journal has recently assumed the character of a General Morning Newspaper, and the skill and talent which have':been displayed in supporting that character—a power of expansion and development which, if duly supported by an amount of capital immediately available, must inevitably render the " Iron Times " the leading journal of the age. Founded on the basis of the " Iron Times" as a Railway News paper, the " Iron Times," as a General Newspaper, has a point d'appui to start from, such as it has never hitherto been the good fortune of any journal to attain.

STAFFORDSHIRE AND NORTH MIDLAND JUNCTION RAILWAY. In placing before our readers and the public gene rally the real merits of those 'lines- now in a position to go before Parliament, having so far complied with the standing orders, we know of no scheme more likely to meet with the sanction of Government than the above; that is, if general utility, practicability, and extensive local :support, form any criteria by which the Legislature will be influenced in making their decisions. " By the scheme promoted by the Direct Northern Railway Com pany it is proposed to bring York (to the n rth of which city there is a population exceeding five millions) within the dista ce (as mea sured by time), of four hours and a half from London ; to reduce by 42 miles the distance now traversed by the existing means of railway communication between those termini ; to lessen the distance as projected by the competing plan least favourable to the public) that of the Eastern Counties Extens'on by Cambridge and Lincoln) by 21% miles, and as projected by the most favourable rival scheme (that of the London and York) by ten miles ; and yet so to reconcile this result with local wants, as to place, without in any instance sacrificing the principle of directness, every town of importance in the districts to be served by this Company's main line nearer Lon don, either by means of the main line itself, or of well-de-ised lateral lines, than they „re by the theme of the London and York, which, for the sake of passing through certain towns, pursues a devious route to York, thereby inflicting a serious injury on the country north of the llumber. Prospectuses, with Tables, Forms of Proposal for the purchase of an Annuity or for making an Assurance, and every Information, may be obtained by application at the Office of the Company. E. RYLEY.

The shareholders will observe the suggestion made by Mr. Miller, which proposes to introduce a new element of safety, regularity, and speed into ra.lway travelling, by the conveyance of passengers and goods upon separate lines. This suggestion will, no doubt, receive the consideration due to its importance in the ensuing session. " The Committee entirely concur with Mr. Miller in the important bear;ng which the Holborn Terminus project has on the Direct Northern. It is in effect, though under different management, an ex tension of that line into the heart of London. By its means the London Terminus of the Direct Northern Railway will be immediately avail able for the Post-office and the City of London generally (between Fumival's inn and Gray's-inn-lane), and will itself form a portion of one side of the widest thoroughfares in London, will be in the immediate vicinity of the Courts of Law and Inns of Court, and comes more into the heart of Londcn, with less sacrifice of valuable property, than any metropolitan terminus which has been suggested. " In accordance, therefore, with Mr. Miller's recommendation, and in pursuance of the powers entrusted to them by their proprie tary, the Committee have taken steps to secure control over this project, satisfied that it affords the most central, and, at the same time, the most accessible and least expensive London terminus. " The Committee refer the shareholders to the map accompanying this Report; it fully shows the course and relations of the Direct Northern Rsiiway, and its national character. " tip to the 30th of November, all the standiag orders of Parlia ment have been complied with ; and the solicitors report their per. fect ability to fulfil all that remains to be completed within the time limited by the Legislature. . " Thu; prepared, and with deposits paid, and the proper deeds signed by a body of most responsible Shareholders, the Com mittee intend to make their application to Parliament at the earliest possible day, confident that a project of such undoubted public utility as the Direct Northern, in which the public service itself is deeply interested, will there receive what it only needs to ensure its success —a fair and impartial hearing." The following tables, appended to the Report of the Company's Engineer (John Miller, Esq.), will show the relative advantages of the Direct Northern in point of distances, as compared with its com petitors for legislative sanction, and with existing lines. It may here be observed, that the distance between the cross of St. Paul's Cathedral, in London, and the centre of the Great Tower of York Minster, as measured along the earth's surface, is, according to the Ordnance Survey, 920,108.7 feet, or very nearly 174 1 4 miles; an : that the main line of the Direct Northern, between London and York, is 176 miles.

It is unnecessary in this Prospectus, to enlarge upon the advan tages of Life Assurance, or its adantation to most of the exigencies and relations in life. These benefits have been so extensively pub lished, that they are already well understood and appreciated. This Company is formed for granting every description of Life Assurance, Annuity, and Endowment ; Loans either for long or short periods to persons effecting Assurances, upon receiving satis factory security for the payment of premium and interest, and the repayment of the principal, by instalments or otherwise, as may be agreed ; also for the purchase of Reversionary Interests, Policies of Assurance, and every other description of property. Persons borrowing money of the Company, upon approved se curity, and effecting a policy of Assurance for the amount bor rowed, will not be called upon for the repayment of the loan, so long as the interest and premium are regularly paid. Thus a party: borrowing 1,0001. upon security of his estate, and an assignment of a policy on his life, would at his decease leave his estate unencum bered, the sum assured being applied by the Company to repay its advance. The premiums are based upon data derived from the most recent and authentic sources, presenting a moderate and squitably•adjusted scale. One of the principal objects of the Company is to assimilate its benefits as nearly as possible to those of Mutual Assurance Societies, with the additional security of a subscribed capital. With this ♦ ew, four-fifths. of the profits. arising from Policies affected by parties on the terms of participation, will be divided every three years, after the first five years, among thoe who assure for the whole term of life. The sum so divided among the Assured to be applied to the reduction of the annual premium, or added to the sum assured as bonus, or paid in present value, at the option of the Assured. _ _ - For persons who may wish to assure for short periods, or for the whole of life, without participation in the profits, a scale has been adopted, which is as moderate as it can be rendered consistently with the Interests of the Company. Parties may also effect the assurance by payment of ene-half only of the premiums for a stipulated term of years—the Interest upon the unpaid portion of the premiums, at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, being annually paid in advance. Upon payment of the arrear of the premiums, the Assured will be entitled to a fall parti cipation of the profits. The Assured may at all times borrow an amount equal to the value of the policy, on its security. In all the transactions of the Company the utmost liberality will be exercised. Life Assurances will be effected with all the advantages to the assured afforded by the most respectable established companies. m e u a n ch era o - f A Table of Premiums will shortly be published.

Dr. Spry in the chair, Mr. Flood, the vestry clerk, laid before the vestry a letter he had received from Sir James Graham, acknowledging the receipt of the petition to the Queen from the parish of St. Marylebone, signed by 8,000 of the rate-payers, praying for a total and immediate 'veal of the corn-laws, and promising to lay the same before her Majesty at the earliest oppor tunity. The letter was ordered to be entered on the minutes. On a demand being made of 10,4001. for the mainte nance of the police for the last half-year, Mr. RIDGWAY complained that such a sum had to be paid for a body solnefficient, and he thought that some thing ought to be done to get the police under their own control.—(Hear.),, After one or two other observations, the amount was ordered to be paid by instalments. Mr. POTTER bni•ught forward a motion of which he had given notice, " That the vestry should forthwith convene a great public meeting of the parishioners for the purpose of laying before them the whole of the correspondence which had taken place between them, the Secretary of State, and the Poor-law Commissioners." He said he thought that the time had arrived when it was the duty of the vestry to appeal to the rate-payers on this subject. The board of directors and guardians had already taken steps for converting a portion of their workhouse into an / asylum for the destitute of their own parish. Mr. GEORGE D,ANIELL seconded the resolution. Mr. Hust, M.P., had no objection that they should touch upon the spirit of the Act which was so calcu lated to destroy the interests of the poor. Sir James Graham had already given his consent to an alteration of the law, so far as Marylebone was concerned, and he thought that was the point more especially they should aim at. Sir JAMES HAMILTON begged to express his hearty concurrence in the resolution, and be should be most happy to lend his assistance in carrying out the object. The Rev. Dr. SPRY also declared his approbation of the proposition to 'call the parishioners together, and expressed his willingness, health permitting, to preside over the meeting:---(Loud cheers.) The resolution Alas then carried unanimously, and a committee appointed to make the necessary arrange ments. The Rev. CHAIRMAN called the attention of the vestry to the failure of pew rents in the various churches. He said there was only one out of the four district churches that presented a surplus revenue. The rectory church also presented a deficit, and he attributed it to the bad arrangements made by the vestry. At present a person living in one district, although the pews in that district church might be filled, could not be allowed to take a seat in another district church. This lie hoped would be remedied. Mr. HuME, M.P.,suggested that instead of compelling the pew-renters to Sake their sittings for twelve months, they should be permitted to take them for three or six months. This would enable many to do so who have not now the opportunity. After some discussion a committee was appointed to investigate the matter. THE BLACKFRIARS PIER.—The various charges of assault against the police, and vice versa, arising out of the disputes between the Navigation Committee of the City and the Watermeu's Steam-packet Company, were sent from the Mansion-house to the London sessions, which were held on Saturday. A vast number of per sons connected with the Watermen's Company, and several gentlemen; who have witnessed the repeated fracas between the. pier-constables and passengers on board the Waterman steamers, were in attendance to give their evidence,.but they, as well as those connected with the Corporation, w ere doomed to be disappoi n t e d, as the grand jury, after hearing the evidence in support of the alleged assault on the pier-master (Robert Ware), ignored one bill, and all the others were consequently withdrawn. ATTEMPTED HIGH WAY ROBBERY. —Last night, between five and six o'clock, a daring attempt was made to rob Mr. John Hopkirk, gardener to Mrs. Wilson, Olive-b ink, Musselburgh, on the road leading from Meadowb,nk Brewery to the Duke's-walk, about a mile from Edinburgh. File was walking leisurely along the footpath, on his way to Edinburgh, when he was passed by two men, rather respectably attired, one of whom snatched the walking- stick out of his hand, and almost instantaneously struck him a blow with it on the back part of the head, which made him reel against the wall ; and, as he was rising, the other gave him a vio lent kick on the right nostril, causing a severe wound, which bled profusely. Hopkirk, who is an active and athletic man, soon regained his footing, and dealt his blows so thick and fast, that his opponents were so com pletely worsted in the struggle, that one of them bawled out to the other, with a strong English accent, " It's no go, Jack, let us make our escape." Both of them ac cordingly made off, and were followed for a short dis tance by Hopkirk, who was obliged to give up the pur suit from the weakness caused by the loss of blood, and the stunning effect of, the blows he had received from his own walking-atick.—!scottunan of Saturday. The Staffordshire and North Midland Junction commences at the Grand Junction Railway, at Staf ford, and proceeds in a direct course through and near several important villages, to Uttoxeter. Here, it may be remarked, a great public convenience will be felt in the establishment of a railway so far, this being the most direct route from the centre of Staf fordshire, or the county town, to Derby, Ashbourne, and other important places in the latter county. It may also be stated, as a fact not at all unimportant, that the line has been laid down over that distance in such a direction as to give the least possible annoy ance to the principal landowners in the neighbourhood —viz., Lord Stafford, Earl Talbot, Earl Harrowby, and Earl Ferrers, from whom no opposition is expected, and farther, out of the four or five schemes projected for the same locality, this only remains, the rest having, one after the other, failed in complying with the standing orders. The line then proceeds to Ashbourne across ten or twelve miles of country that influential connexion. peculiarly favourable for engineering purposes, giving the t to several conveniences populo of railwayusvillages, and transit Here, as it may be supposed, the line is well supported, and its existence regarded as a desideratum by the inhabitants, who are peculiarly situated as to the want of facilities for carriage and communication. 'There are no canals in this locality, hence land car riage greatly enhances the price of coal,limestone, and other valuable mineral productions of the neighbour hood. This seems an anomaly, as coal, for instance, is found in great abundance a few miles distant, though the cost of that article is still high. It is, however, an evil which the power of locomotion only can remedy. With this in view, as well as a large amount of passenger traffic, which it is expected the nPighbourhood will supply, it is proposed to carry the line to Belper or the Ambergate station (which will became an important railway focus at some future day), on the Midland Railway, and thereterminate; and, with this intention, plans and sections have been deposited for an alternative line. A branch to Worksworth will complete this line, which, upon the whole, pro mises to be one of the most unique and likely schemes that will go before Parliament, as it will commence and terminate with two of the most important lines in the kingdom, and afford communications north and south, east and west, to a rich, populous, and mineral district, at present not supplied with such accommo dation. This Company, like some other schemes affected by the panic, has purposely waived allotting their shares till this week, when they have issued their let ters. Simultaneously with that circumstances, we understand some overture has been submitted affect ing this company and the North Staffordshire ; the result of which will be known in a day or two. In the mean time, we are of opinion that parties receiv ing their letters of allotment will be quite on the sate side to take them up ; as, in some shape or other, this scheme is certain to go on.—From the Iron Times of Friday, January 9, 1846.

TUE DEAD ALIVE.—On Friday evening, a woman named Kinnate, occupying a kitchen at No. 23, Great Barlow-street, who had been out for a short time, re turned home, and found her husband, a man of eighty two years of age, and who had been for some time in ill he.,lth, in bed, apparently asleep. She approached and spoke to him, but on his not moving after she had vainly endeavoured to arouse him for several minutes, she came to the conclusion that he had during her brief absence expired. In a state of great anguish of mind she called down other female lodgers, who were of the same opi nion as herself with regard to dissolution' having taken place. The ceremony of " laying out" was then com menced, when, immediately after the jaws were tied up, the supposed defunct suddenly raised his right arm, and opening his eyes, demanded to know what was the mat ter. His " better half," and the rest of the women, ter• rified almost to death, rushed out of the apartment, calling loudly for assistance, and in their hurry to get into the street, ran violently against Mr. Newson, an undertaker, who had been sent for to take measure of the coffin. LATER FROM THE UNITED STATES.—LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY.—By the arrival of the Isabella, from Charleston, which port she left on the 18th ult., we have received advices up to the 17th of December, inclusive. The political news is destitute of interest. Fears were entertained that the Indians would attack some one of the Texian frontier settlements. The authorities at Comanches had been warned by one or two friendly Indians.. The cotton trade at Charleston was rather brisk. The following is an extrac t of the the advices Cambria, via New York, on the subject :—Since our last advices per o f a cent. with stiff feeli ng tto o per lb.. a p art t ise o n i of speculators and factors. We shall be obliged to reduce our esti mates of the present crop by the next a st d e v a a m n e e r in , g as fr t o h m e sout h ern s are waiting so dt cidedly on the subject At Mobile and at New Orleans the cotton trade had an animated E malpLis:T.airAalcerrhe public, , and prices we believe, are aw are f fact of an s were ic.perlb.

O n account of such circular and other steps alr ea d y ta k en, much interest and anxiety have been manifested, and free circ u lation upon the subject. Now, respecting the calling out, it should be recollected that the Act of Par liament authorising the ballot for the militia has been suspended many years. The result of this is, that the alterations in the amount of population of the country must necessarily lead to a very different distribution of the quota to be furnished by each county. It is perhaps not known to many that during the recess of Parliament nothing can be done to ascertain such quota without an order in Council directing this to be done, by the deli very of notices at the houses of those liable to be drawn for this service, upon which return is formed the neces sary information to found this data. It is not likely now that an order in Council will be issued, but that im mediately on the meeting of Parliament a Bill will be brought in to authorise this measure, and the first step then will be to obtain the particulars above referred to as a part of the necessary measures for carrying out the intention of Parliament. Upon this being done the ballot for each county follows, and then the orders of Govern ment as to the duty to be performed. With respect to the various rumours as to a permanent embodiment for active ser‘ice for any length of time, there are not at present any substantial grounds for believing such will be the case, but the chance is, that the various corps will be placed on duty for 28 days only, and that so far carry ing out the measure will sufficiently put the Government in possession of the know ledge of the amount of means available, should any unexpected emergency arise.— Times AcciDENT BY FIRE-ARMS.-011 Sunday morning, between nine and ten o'clock, as a young years of age, named Charles Redford, a carpenter, with shasoolngt with several acquaintances, in the liampstr brooch, e , home by his small birds, the gun-barrel burst near th It is feared he will he sustained serious injuries in the face. as d mane ,tw b e y,, nt: , - h o uie n uh e a e ssrstance ma* rendered, injuries sustained he lies in a but from the extent of the before companions,ve r daeupdrisp-erdurnopft ssiguhrgt. , all the licensed d ange r o us state, A NOBLE CELE BRATION OF CHRISTMA S —At mid by order of the incurred by the anhuiogtohlisoet,rsit,olfreisil.lC fhavvinrihsetamtweavesr-eeervdeeel,botsisendhßafu(eirrbleievneenr, unforttinate women towards the proprietors of these es tablishments, were discharged, and they were afterwards m Oll e S a i s n ur t e h s e a c r o e u n n o t r t y u . n d S e u s r e e r l v y i n s g u c o l} stringent dispatched but to tadmirable t i imitation !
