Patronised by the Prince Consort, I'rince George of Cambridge, &c. " In its appearance there is a ge itlemanly neatness, and an ab sence of all unsightly vulgarity. lz has met with the highest appro bation in the Court circle." - (See Moraine* Pc - t.) This invention is an ever-coat, adapted for a variable climate, composed of the purest Llar. weed. The fleece of this singular animal is naturally repsllent el' water, ye'. is amply porous to admit a due escape of bodily heat, and is allowed to Le lighter, softer, more durable, and more elastic, than any other devription of cloth. Registered Paletets or this fabric, in colours black, blue, brown, olive, Oxford grey, &c., are to be had of their recognised agents in the country, and iu London only at the extensive ware-rooms of the Patentees, who are tailors to the Court, and makers of the most fas.lionalyie plain dress garments, with Foreign and British diplo matic aid tnelital unicorns. Iti these the same spirit for mo derate prices is maiatained as exemplified by the Registered Paletot. The patronage so generally bestowed on this patented invention, has induced some unprincipled persons an attempt the fraudulent imposition assuming a simifalty of name; being an attempt to deceive the public wiih some trashy substitute. A reward of Fifty Pounds is ofered .Or the actual detection o? an Infringement. Messrs. Nicoll think it due to their own reputation thus respect fully to citation the Public, and to request a close observance of the address, and that each Registered Paletot is distinctly marked on the inside, 11.

RAILWAY COMMITTEES. (YESTERDAY.) Sub-Committee No. S. The Committee met to-day shortly After twelve o'clock There were present Sir J. Y. Buller (Chairman), Messrs. Bell, Kemble, and liramston. EDINDUR.GII, GLASGOW, AND DVIVIIIAR TONSEINSI. _ ----- The consideration of the remaining allegations in the petition, which were not entered iuto yesterday, was resumed. The first allegation taken was, that there was an inaccuracy at the datum point of the railway at the river Clyde, the surface o. which was marked on the plans and sections as 104 feet, whereas it should have been 111 feet 9 inches. Mr. Lauglin was examined—Surveyed the levels of this line. Levelled all the way to ilellensburgh. The point alluded to should have been marked 116 feet instead of 94, which was the case on the plans and sections. The difference between the two measurements (his and the engineer's for the promoters of the Bill) at the canal at llielpatrick, was 22 feet. Mr. rain' said that he conceived that his friend had put himself out of court. He alleged in the petition that the error in question was 17 feet mid he make his witness prove it to be over 20 feet. Mr. GRAHAM considered that the present was not the time to make this objection. The CHAIRMAM considered that the examination might be pursued. Witness re-examined—His 'earls were correct. The CHAIRMAN (to the witnesi)—Tou ought to put inyour books to show that correctness. The other party might say that they were correet, and it was only by examination of their documents that they could arrive at a satisfactory conclusion in the case of conflict ing evidence. Witness cross-examined—He took his surveys from the surface of the water, not the bank of the river. Other evidence of a similar character was adduced to support the allegation, which corroborated the testimt,ny of the preceding witness. Mr. Gasioad said that this was the case he had to submit to the Committee. Mr. Pam, in support of the Bill, cal ed Mr. Bly, en,dneer, who stated, that in peint of fact the discrepancy between the plan and what was stated in the allegation, was only three inches. There was no height to mark from it the way which was required in the terms of the petition, and that the bank of the river was the proper surface from which to level. The CHAIRMAN said that the Committee were of opinion that the allegation was not sustained, but that the standing orders had not ' been complied with, inasmuch as it appeared from the evidence that the vertical height at the change of gradients was inaccurately marked, being 100 feet, instead et 108 feet. Mr. GRAHAM said he would not press the other allegation. The next petition consider strom tillr James Colquhoun, various inaccuracies in= A , ajid sections deposited with the Sheritnhofilver Inr , Atankatt rereeetnes to. tato town of Heleusbufgh. The first instance of the general allegation stated, that in section marked 35 in one of the streets of the said town, which was to be crossed by the railway, the height and span of the arch were not given, and that there was no cross section. Evidence in support of this allegation was adduced, to show that the street in question was in actual existence at present, which was denied, and that it was crossed by the road, which was also denied. The room was then cleared, and on our re-admission, The CHAIRMAN announced that the Committee were of opinion that in this case the standing orders had not been complied with. There was another petition from Mr. James Perry, a burgess of Dumnbarton, complaining generally of non-compliance with the standing orders. TWO allegations were heard which were not sustained. The Committee then found that the standing or d ers h a d no t b een compliedTtiiswas itthheb fourththe pdraoymot occupieders ot'y the bill.t case. The next case on the list was then called, but the witnesses not being in attendance, the Committee adjourned shortly after three o'clock till twelve o'clock to-morrow, when none but unopposed cases are to be taken. Sub-Committee, No. 3. This Committee met at the usual hour this morning, Mr. Aglionby in the chair. TEE WELSE MIDLAND. The Committee resumed the hearing of the ease, and nearly the whole of the day was occupied in settling what •bjections to the 31st of December plans should be admitted or aban dccied. A large number of the allegations were admitted by Mr. Baxter, who appeared for the promoters of the Bill, while a no less number were withdrawn by the opponents of the scheme, who were represented by Messrs. Burke, I'ritt, and 'enables. Some of the allegations involved important and extensive defects . . in the plans and sections, but the majority were of a trivil character. The Committee were occupied for two hours in the consideration of petitions, which ultimately were found to have been fully dis eased on Friday, and afterwards some reserved points left over from Friday were disposed of. Most of them were of a very trivial nature, and summarily disposed of by the Committee. The petition of Mr. Coke was entertained at some length. It ap peared that no application had been made to him for the possession of some land in which lie had an interest, nor had any implication been made to Mr Powell, who had a life estate in tke same land. Mr. Powell was examined, and stated that the land was, upon his marriage, conveyed to Mr. Coke, as trustee, to be held upon certain uses not yet satisfied. _ . The Committee decided that all the parties who had any interest in the land ought to have had notice, and that the standing orders had not been complied with in this instance. The next petition was sustained, inasmuch as tke extreme depth of cutting was not marked upon the plans, as was also another alleg ing that the extreme height of an em a.tikment was not shown. The nicety of -the standing orders about trifles was exemplified in the Committee declaring a non-compliance with them, because a distance had been put in chains, whereas the standing orders require that it should have been put in fbrlongs and chains—a split ting-of-hair kilt i of instruction, which the Honourable Chairman /aid they were bound to respect. A number of petitions upon the ground of non-compliance with the standing orders were declared proved, and the case was closed so far as the standing orders were concerned. The CHAIRMAN said that upon tie whole case the November depo sits were totally inaccurate, as were also a number of the 31st Decent ber deposits ; but for ascertaining how many of the standing orders had not been complied with, the agents on both sides should confer with the shorthand writer, and arrange the matter before the Com mittee submitted their report to the House. At the close of the proceedings, Mr. VENABLIS said that it had been alleged that many of the in accuracies in the deposits had occurred through the illness of Air. Hall, the engineer, but he had been instructed to say, that although the Company were In difficulties about what they had in hand, they had employed their forces in surveying a new line thirty miles in length intended to run from Quaker's-yard to Pontypool. Mr. Hall and Mr. Gibbs were asked a number of questions, but nothing was elicited to show that anything but Mr. Hall's illness had occasioned the inaccuracies. Mr. Hall declared that his illness was the sole cause, and that he had never before failed to succeed in complying with the stand ing orders, although he had been a surveyor of public works for some years. He and his men had worked until they could scarcely stand, and it was hardly fair to charge him with negligence, or a desire 0 conceal anything, or state what was not strictly true. The CUASEMAN said that there was not the slightest imputation either en the character of Mr. Hall or any other engineer employed upon the line. It was intimated that a special case upon the standing orders would be gone into in the morning. LYNN AND ELT (EXTENSION TO SPALDING). This is a line of railway proposed to be constructed between Wis beach and Spalding, with a branch to Holbeach, the cost of which was estimated at 185,0001. Parliamentary agents, Dyson and Hall ; engineer, Mr. J. S. Valentine. There is a petition against the Bill, but the usual formal proof* were accepted, and the consideration of the petition against the pro ject was pestponed. The Committee then adjourned until the usual time to-morrow morning. Sub - Committee No. 5. The Committee met at the usual hour (twelve o'clock) ; the Mem bers in attendance were Mr. Home Drummond (C! airman), Mr. F. Mackenzie, the O'Conor Don, Mr. Tattoo Egerton, Mr. Phillips, and Mr. Contpton. FURNESS AND WINDERMERE. This case, which was betbre the Committee on Friday last, was again renewed this morning. Iha omission from the book of re ference of the name of Al r. James Michel, over whose property a portion of the line is proposed to pees, was then examined into, and the Committee decided, after hearing tho witnesses on both sides, that the Standing Orders were complied with. The next allegation was, that there was no description of the surface of the road in the MSS sections 7 and 8, the property proposed to be altered in the parish of Windermere. The Committee slecided the levels were marked but not described. The next allegation was, that no estimate of the expense of the al ternative line had been made and signed by the parties competent to do so. The evidence went to show that an estimate was lodged at the Private Bill-office, but had been lost or mislaid, and the par ties could not produce a copy. Mr. Harris, the engineer to the Bill, to meet this occurrence, drew up another estimate, which he handed to the opposing agent. Mr. VENTABLES, on tne part of the opposing petitioners, here objected, and said it was not in time, and that the estimate now handed in gave no details of the description of the line which was proposed to be constructed. The objection of the petitioners was, that the estimate lodged at the Private Bill-office was not a sufficient or correct estimate according to what was required by the standing orders. The Committee adjourned the farther consideration of this point until Friday next, in order to give time to the agents for the Bill to send to the country for a true copy of the original estimate. WAN CHESTER AND POOLE (zuGGERs- SAL'S/JUICY, AND POOLE). The object of the promoters of this line is to construct a railway from Cheltenham, by Luggershall, to Salisbury, and thence to Poole, constructing by their plan a continuous line from the manufacturing districts to the town and port of Poole. The length was 44 miles, and the estimated cost 700,0001. Engineers, Messrs. Stephenson, Bidder, and Routh ; Parliamentary agents, Messrs. Dorington, Ellicombe, and Co. ; solicitors, Messrs. Wheeler. Manchester ; James, Basinghall-street, London ; and Deacon and Long, Southampton. A petition from Mr. Robert Scott Stoble, complaining of non compliance with the standing orders, was then entered into. The petitioner was represented by Mr. Coates, who said that his objection was of a preliminary nature, as to whether the notices to Parliament of the intended railway were suf ficiently explicit. inasmuch as that there was an amend ment on the Bill to empower the Midland Counties Railway Company to subscribe to the proposed work to be executed; and his objection was that there had been published separate notices of these amendments, whereas it had been ruled last year by the Parliamentary Committees that cumulative notices could not be given in evidence, but that the notices depended en should contain all the matter in connexion with the Bill. On this point, he sub mitted that the original notices could not be received by the R a il wa y at Lichfield. The length of the line Com mittee, who stated Ihey would net give their decision for the present.

Bishopnate-street, for the purpose of receiving a report *1 the committee for the past year, as to the state of the society's affairs, appointing the officers for the year ensuing, electing five pensioners on the general fueds and the candidate sixth on the poll will be en titled to the Whittingham pension. J. Gor/1111, Esq. (in the absence of Richard Taylor, Esq.), in the chair. Mr. J. S. Hodson, the secre tary, read the report, which commenced by congratulating the sub scribers on the highly satifactory prospects of the society, and that its thnds had increased, and still continued to increase. For some years previously there had been a falling off in the annual subscriptions, but this year the committee were happy to state that the receipts were greater than they had been for four years past, exceeding those of the last year by 32/. NVith their increase of receipts, the amount of pen sions had also increased, reaching the sum of 5031. 4s. The report then alluded to the advantages derived by the society in investing its funds with the Commissioners for the Reduction of the National Debt, the Interest on which now amounted to 1481. 12e sd. per annum, the total capital of the society now being 4.1701. 19s. The report next lauded to the anniversary dinner, at which Disraeli, Esq., M.P.. presided, which drew together the largest company ever m t to celebrate that event, and at the close of the meeting it realised the unprecedented sum o: 4001. The committee also wished to acknow ledge, with the most heartfelt gratitude the magnificent girt from the proprietors of that popular and well-known periodical, Punch, who haa enriched its funds to the extent of 80/. The excursion to Brigh ton, Vauxhall-gardens fCte, and other sources of revenue were casu ally noticed, and various sums of small prat acknowledged. The re port also alluded, in terms of the deepest regret, to the removal by death of their late chairman or the committee, Mr. Smith, who was a warm friend to the institution. The report was unanimously adopted, and ordered to be printed. A deputation from the Corn mittee appointed to conduct the amateur performance at the Strand Theatre, which had been promoted by gentlemen connected with the newspapers, stated that the performances had realised a profit of 521. Is. Gd., which they wished to hand over to this Society, in ad dition to which they also handed In two pounds subscribed since by a private individual. The report was received with loud cheers, and a highly complimentary resolution passed by acclamation to the gen tlemen who tanned the committee and amateurs for their valuable services rendered on that occasion, The result of the poll was then declared, and the successful candidates were—Robert Lymbery, 2,841 ; Ann Cook, 2,636 ; Sarah Coker, 2,130 ; Thomas Walley, 2,113; Sarah Bowden, 1,924 ; and Joseph Fellowes, 1,832 (the Whit- Brigham pension). After soiree other routine business, the meeting was dissolved. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.—At the rehcarsPl on Monday night the boxes appeared for the first time with their satin hangings. These, which are of the brilliant yellow colour called bouton d'or, give the house an entirely new tone. A richer effect cannot be conceived, and when the theatre is fully lighted up, the appearance will certainly be most magnificent. MARCH 4, 1846.

The further arguments in this part-heard writ of error were re sumed this morning, and occupied their Lordships the whole day. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, March 3. (Before Mr. Commissioner SHEPHERD.) An application was made to the Learned Commissioner for costs under peculiar circumstances. From the facts stated it appeared that a fiat in bankruptcy had been issued against a party who had Mod his petition in insolvency. On his applying for his final order, he was opposed on several grounds, and ultimately the petition was dis missed, as it was shown that the insolvent was a trailer. The present application was made at the suggestion of the Taxing Master for the costs of that opposition. The Learned Commissiosxl after referring to the several Acts, expressed his 'platen that he could not allow any costs except those incurred in carrying out the bankruptcy. It was now, however, urged that it had been necessary to get that petition dismissed before the flat could bo issued. The Learned COMMISSIONKI said he would willingly make the order if he had the power, but did not consider he had. LE Application was made for a warrant against a debtor, summoned under the new Act, who had not complied with an order of the Court for payment of the debt. It appeared that he had attended on a summons, in which only the initials of the Christian names were inserted. The debtor bad paid part of this demand. _ _ . . The CO?dMISSIONKR said he could not 'venture to issue a ►arrant with initials only, but would grant another summons, that the party might be examined as to his Christian names.

Ifonora Sullivan, a desperate looking woman, nearly six feet high was charged by Mrs. Mary Brown, a respectable married woman, re siding in Brownlow-street, Holborn, with the following daring assault : Complainant, whose face was very much bruised and swollen,ide posed that on the previous evening, at a quarter-pact eight o'clOck, she was walking with an elderly lady, when tie prisoner, who Was intoxicated, rushed upon them, and knocked them down. On getting up the prisoner struck her on the face, and nearly stunned her. She found a policeman, and gave her into custody. Policemen 55 G said, that on arriving at the spot where the as sault was ( 4 w:mitted, be found the prisoner in a shop, threatening to thrash the owner of the place if she did not buy her wash leather," which she hawked about fbr sale. for conduct was vio lent in the extreme and her language was shocking. The prisoner was described by the officers to be a most desperate woman, who had been frequently committed to prison for brutal as saults. She was the sister of a notorious woman called the " slasher,' a complete Oaf-nese, w ho formerly lived in St. Giles's, but who died through her dissipated habits. The prisoner did not deny the charges, saying she was drunk, and had no recollection of what took place. Mr. COMDIC fined her 40e., or one month's imprisonment, She could not pay the money, cud she was conveyed to prison. _ - MONEY and COMMERCIAL - I(.E WS, (From The San of Last Night. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 6,0 C J bales, at very steady rates. Exporters took 600 bales Ame rican. 300 bales Surat, went at 2 1 /„c1. ; 150 of Pernam, at 6 1 / id. to 64d.; 100 Egyptian, at 6%d. to WO.; and Amp. rican at 3 3 %d. to 6d. per lb. There was an improvement-its Shares, and an increase in the number of the transactions. The Money-market is rather unsettled by the hostile tone of the American accounts received to-day, as even commer cial interests does not seem to keep the Executive of tLe United States within reasonable bounds as respects its pre tensions. How much more Brother Jonathan would lose by a war than we should, a few facts will abundantly show. Last year the aggregate value of the imports into the United States from Great Britain was 10,000,000 dollars, and there was a large falling off in the importation of cotton manufactures except calicoes. Now the Yankees supply us with more products than ever, and manifestly will be the most severe sufferers by a war. An American paper bears us out in this view, for it states that "the importation of cotton nnnufac. tures into this country from Great Britain is now principally composed of the finer qualities of goods, and such as we have hardly commenced the manufacture of within our own limits. We are rapidly progressing in the manufacture of calicoes, printed and dyed ; but it will be some time before we shall be able to supply the domestic demand, and must therefore be extensive importers for some time to come. So far as the manufactures of this description of goods have progressed, they are equal to any imported, and successfully compete with the foreign article whenever they come in con tact. The offloial table gives us an idea of the extent of the markets of this country for the manufactures of Great Britain, and shows that however great may be the position we occupy in producing the raw material, the position we occupy as consumers of the fabrics of England is of very limited value, and exerts very little influence upon the aggregate consumption." The English Securities have been rather seriously depressed this morning, as might be expected, from the tenor of the American aelvices. Consols have receded to 96 and 95% for present transfer, and to 964 and 95Y $ for time. The pre mium on Exchequer-bills has beea steady at 345. to 365.

(From the Guernsey and Jersey News of Saturday.) The town and neighbourhood of Sand-street was yesterday after noon thrown into a state of great excitement in consequence of a report of a murder having been committed on the person of Mr. Centiliter Le Cronier, by a woman of the name of Le Gendra, at a detestable haunt of vice, well-known under the appellation of " Mul berry Cottage." The house in question is the same in which the riot took place last Saturday, and from whence several abandoned females were lodged In the hospital, and several young men beaten and some severely wounded. The occurrence of this melancholy affair, we learn, task place under the following circumstances : It appears, that Centenier Le Cronier was drawing up a report against the parties who were lodged in gaol on Sunday morning last, for creating a idiot at Le Gendre's house, and who were to be pre sented in Court this morning. The Centenier wanted information on some points, and, therefore accompanied by police-offtcer Manuel, he repaired to the house where the riot occurred, in order to ascer tain the facts he required, and to lodge Le Gendre and his " wife" in gaol, so as to secure their presence in Court this day. The latter course he deemed the most sure, and accordingly, when he arrived at the house, he said he was come to arrest them, unless they gave se curity for their appearance in Court. The woman became excited, and exclaimed i that she ;7 . go to gaol nor give security. The police ea id it was y re sist, as they were come on purpose to arrest them did not give security • when the woman rushed at the centeni with a large knife if the b her apron, and which, is said, she held in her hand beneath a side, exclaiming, T plunged it deeply into his abdomen on tile right s e o u le ld ss ne to rithe The knife penetrated t o considerablea a wound, Irons which the ke tly exclaimed, " Oh, I' m stabbed—l'm d dead man ! t hat bowels protruded. Mr. Le ,, C a r n o d s called two or three parsons wh o th in a n tle cu m n y g s f a e e c rr u r r i t g in t hs Y ttm - a. of his property m ore which was, that his wife should have one-third than the law allowed h er. to the house of Mr. Elliot. currier, an d were present to bear witnes s that he was about to pronounce his will, Mr. Le Crofter was taken C e dfray and Le Soeur, to reduce Mr. Le Cronier' s w ill for Advocates medical . assistance /VAS sent fir ; messengers were also dispat c h ed to writing. They both repaired to the spot immediately, wh en t h e ins t ru ment was drawn up , amidst the tears and lamentations of the relatives and friends of the dying mau. Saturday, Half-past Twelve.—Since the above was in type it is our painful duty to state that the untortunate victim, Mr. Le Cronier has just died. His loss to the community will be severely felt ; as a zealous officer of police, he was ever on the alert where his duty and patriotism called him, and foremost in every case of danger that Came under his notice. lie is deeply regretted in a large circle of friends, and his death must he deeply felt My his bereaved relatives. FIRE AT THE RESIDENCE OF THE COUNTESS OF WEsTmoRELAND.—On Sunday night an alarming fire occurred at the residence of the Dowager Countess of Westmoreland, No. 8, Dorset place. A few minutes after her Ladyship had retired to rest on the above-mentioned night she discovered that the curtains of the bed room were on firs, owing, it is supposed, to the candle having acci dentally fallen against them. Miss Dovien, who slept in the same room, ineffectually tried to extinguish the flames, and received some injuries in the attempt; and the fire assuming . yi alarming appear ance, the t wo l a di es gave an alarm, and tbrftitately succeeded in in.iking their escape. The engines were shortUtin attendance, and the flames were subdued, with no damage beyond the partial dostrue thou of the farniture in the apartment. RAILWAY COMMITTEES. The following suggestions have been drawn up by the Chairmen, for the consideration of the Select Committees on Railway Groups. 1. The attention of every Committee should be directed to the following resolution of the House :—" That all Select Committees on Railway Groups or Bills be empowered to refer (if they shall so think flt) to tke Chairman of Ways and Means, together with the Members ordered to prepare and bring in each such Bill, any un opposed railway Bill submitted for their consideration, and that such Bills be severally dealt with by the said Chairman, and those Members respectively acting with him, as other unopposed Bills are to be dealt with." 2. If parties agree as to this order of precedence in which other Bills included in the group shall be taken, the Committee will adopt their agreement. 3. If parties do not agree, the Committee will decide the order of precedence, without hearing counsel. 4. In this case such Bills in each group as are not opposed by com peting lines, will be first taken into consideration, in the order in which they have been read a second time. 5. With respect to competing lines, the Committee will subdivide if necessary the Bills in each group, so as to distribute into separate classes the Bills for such lines as compete inter se. 6. With regard to such separate classes, and the Bills in such classes, 'the Committee must exercise its discretion, according to the circumstances of the case, in determining the order, of prece dence. 7. rn the cases of Bills for lines of railway competing inter as, the following course, adopted last session, is proposed to be iron• tinned: Bappo .& Case t!of their competing Bills : No. I. Counsel opens the case, and then produces evidence. Landowners and other opponents, and Nos. 2,3, and 4 then cross ext mine. No. I. Re-examines. Landowners and other opponents, and then Nos. 2,3, and 4 offer consecutively positive evidence in opposition to No. 1, en the merits of hio case. No. 1. Cross-examines. Landowners and other opponents, and then Nos. 2,3, and 4 re examine. Same process with 2, 3, and 4, in rotation, and 4,3, 2, and 1 reply. Where the opposition of several distinct opposing parties turns on the same points, it will be desirable to restrict, as far as possible, the limits within which the right of successive examinations and cross examinations shall be exercised. 8. In all cases the counsel in opening the case is to be restricted to a statement of facts. The counsel for opponents may either ad dress the Committee previously to offering evidence, or afterwards, but not both. 9. The promoters of each Bill shall be required, two clear days before the day appointed for the first sitting of the Committee, to furnish to the clerk of the Committee, for the use of each member thereof, a particular printed statement of the chief points, succinctly stated, on which they rest their case 10. The opponents of a 13111 shall be required to furnish at the same time a like statement of the chief points on which they rest their opposition. I. The standing orders as to traffic having been rescinded, no detailed evidence as to traffic shall in ordinary cases be received either in support of or in opposition to a Bill, bat the promoters of a Bill shall be required to append to the foregoing statement a printed list of the chief cities or towns intended to be accommodated, with their respective distances from the proposed line, together with the amount of the population of such cities or towns, taken from the re turns of the last general census. It will of course be competent to the Committee, if they shall see sufficient cause, to requlrs further evidence as to traffic. 12. With a view to place some reasonable limit on the amount of engineering evidence, parties shall be required to furnish the Com mittee with the names of the engineering witnesses whom they pro pose to call ; and it is recommended that Committees should place some limit on the number of engineering witnesses to be examined with reference to the same portion of any proposed line. 13. In the case of amalgamated Bills, the promoters of any such Bill shall be required to furnish the Committee with a printed state ment of all the pecuniary claims and liabilities to which any com pany included in the proposed amalgamation is subject by any pre vious Act of Parliament.

The second half-yearly general meeting of the Proprietors of this Railway was held at one o'clock yesterday, at the Ter minus of the London and Birmingham Railway; George Stephenson, Esq. (the eminent engineer), in the chair. The usual formal business haying been transacted, The SECRETARY (Mr. T. Long) read the report, which stated that it had been agreed that the line should be constricted by the London and Birmingham Company, who were to be paid by this Company for its cost, on condition that it did not exceed the amount of this Company's capital, and if there should be any excess that it should be paid by the London and Birmingham Company out of their own funds. That. Company had, however, determined to defer the commence ment of the works with the exception of the small portion from the Leighton station to the Grand Junction Canal until the fate of the two Bills now before Parliament, namely, the Cambridge and Oxford, and the Watford, Luton, and St. Alban's Railway, which had passed the standing orders, was know'n. These lines were calculated to influence the prospei ity of the Dttnatable Railway. In the event of their being sanctioned by Parliament, it was obvious that the arrangement re ferred to would be materially affected. However, the directors, con sidering that the Bills were before Parliament, did not feel called upon to do anything more than briefly allude to the subject. The accounts made up to the end of the year showed a balance In favour of the Company of 7,8001. 16s. 3d. The retiring chairman, the . directors, and auditors, were then re elected, and a, vote of thanks having been given to the chairman, the meeting broke up. DREADFUL ACCIDENT at GREEN- WICII—THREE LIVES LOST. An inquest was held on Monday, at the Pilot Tavern, East Marshes, Greenwich, on the bodies of the three unfortunate men, when the jury agreed to the following verdict :—" That the deceased, Richard Middleton, Francis Reeve, and Thomas Middleton, had met their deaths by suffocation from the effects of sulphureted hydrogen gas, which had escaped from one still to another still, and that this was owing to the deceased Middleton himself, by his neglecting to supply water to the other still." ATTACK UPON THR PROVOST OF ETON.-A private soldier, named Cox, in the 3d Battalion of the Grenadier Guards, was taken into custody on Saturday afternoon, at Eton, charged with having demanded money of the Rev. Mr. Hodgson. the Provost of Eaton, and also with assaualng two of the students of the college. It appears that while the Provost was walking alone In the college playing-fields, the soldier, who was in a state of intoxication, went up to him and demanded his money ; making use, at the same time, of very violent language. Upon the Provost refusing to give him any, the man deliberately walked up to some wooden palings, and tore away one of the rails. The Rev. Mr. Ilodson, however, In the mean time, was fortunately enabled to get back to the college heroic lie was overtaken. The soldier then attacked two of the students making a similar demand for money; seizing hold of one, and violently assaulting him. Upon these effecting their escape from his grasp, he threw at them the large wooden rail, which luckily missed them. Information of the man's outrageous conduct having been given to Mr. Perkins, the superintendent of the Eton p;llce, an at tempt was mule to take him into custody, but such was the resist :nice of the soldier that it required seven men to secure him. . SIR RICHARD HENEGAN ? BSEVEN YEARS' CAM PAIGN/NO IN THE PENINSULA AND TIM NETHERLANDS." —Tlll 6 is one of the best, by which we mean the most interesting, descriptive accounts of the wild adventures and alternate scenes of active en joyment end severe suffering, which necessarily make up the mingled web of the soldiers life en service. It is written in the best form fur a narrative of this kind—that of a personal journal or diary, in which the author himself is the spectator and reporter of all that he relates. lie accompanies the Dnke of Wellington, and the chiefs of the divisions through the scenes of the peninsula campaigns; he is with the army in many hard-fought battles; and by the peculiar nature of his service, that of Ordnance Commissary, has frequently to walk over the held of battle after the victory is won, and to super intend the removal of the dead or wounded officers to the nearest town or fined quarters. Some of the most interesting par's of his journal are his passing sketches of the early- life and character of some of these officers, his former comrades, whom he . found dead or dying on the fatal geld. These sketches are written in the off-hand manner of a soldier, and are full of life and freshness.—Mes , eng,r.
