A public meeting of the scripholders of these two companies was held to-day, at the Railway Protector office, 11, Bncklersbury. The meeting was presided over by Mr. Davis. An irregular discussion took place at the commence ment, as to whether certain resolutions, agreed to at a private meeting of the scripholders, should be read. It resulted in their being read by Mr. Clark, and their substance was, that the affairs of the two companies were in such a state as to imperatively require the most thorough investigation, and that a public meeting should be called, at which to determine on ulterior proceedings. The present meeting bad, in consequence, been called. tie would (continued Mr. Clark) now proceed to explain the circumstances of the two companies. The first com pany to which he would refer was the Derbyshire, Staf ordshire, and Worcestershire Junction. It was origi nally brought out with a capital of 800,000/., the shares being fixed at 32,000, of 251. each. It was subsequently altered to 40,000 shares, of 201. each. The promoter was Mr. M'Gregor, of Suffolk-street. In respect to the econd arrangement, no regular registration took place, he prospectus and provisional directors only being regis tered. About 17,000 were issued, and 8,212 were paid "pon, the deposit being 2/. 2% Of the Direct East and 'Vest Junction, the originator was a Mr. Arnold, of Erttoxeter, a solicitor there, who subsequently appeased ..) have assumed the name of Bainbridge. Dr. MACKENZIE—He took that name, in consequence If acquiring some property. Mr. ainx—lt might be so. The capital of this •)mpany was 600,000 L, being made up of 30,000 shares 1 21 . 2s. each. The number of shares was 12,195, bile, from information obtained from the registrar, iere was a blank against the number paid upon . Dr. MacicErizsa—That is not accurate. Some altercation here arose on this point, which ailed in Dr. MACKENZIE explaining that the certificate of the gistrar was incorrecq filled up, and that upwards of 1,000 shares were issued, while above 12,000 were paid ,)on. They had then the fact before them that in the •st company, of 40,000 shares, but 17,000 were allotted, bile in the latter, of 30,000 shares, according to Dr. .ackenzie, but 17,000 or 18.000 were issued. This was great source of complaint among the shareholders, as ey,had been led to believe the shares had all been issued. therefore appeared there was not sufficient to go to Par anent with. It was a remarkable fact, the directors of the e company were exactly the same as those of the other. nding that the capital was not sufficient for Parlia eptary_purpose; the directors, without consulting the npholders, or calling a meeting, agreed to amalgamate e two, transferring the capital of the larkrerto the home, the Derbyshire, Staffordshire ; ire. Though thedirectotoarsll waduveertised and t h i a t \ crcester .exchange ;ip would be supplied applied or it, he be ved none was supplied. Dr. MacKENzitE—That is not so; every one who ap ed for it received it. Mr. CLanx said he was prepared to prove what he . d. The result of all these proceedings was, that see ; the directors in both schemes had but issued 17,000 zeros each out of 40,000 and 30,000 shares respectively, .A.E.

He now left the matter in their hands, and would conclude by advising them to follow up the pre seat meeting with such measures as would recover the money of the shareholders with whom faith had thus been broken. A SHAREHOLDER hoped that some of the gentlemen present who knew the affairs of the company would answer what had been stated by Mr. Clark. Perhaps Dr. Mackenzie or Mr. Matthew, who were both present, would do so. Mr. MATTHEW said he was at present Chairman of the Derbyshire, Staffordshire, and Worcestershire Junc tion, and he had only been called on to be so since the amalgamation. The line proposed now to go on with - was much required by the district through which it would ,„ pass. The inhabitants were generally in its favour, and Lords Hathertonjfrand Anglesey were its warm supporters. What had been done was for the bene _ fit of the shareholders. The directors had no - object in view but the good of all, in fact, • the carrying out of the scheme was the only way of getting out of the wood. He had no doubt, were the . Bill obtained, but that good terms would be obtained from some of the existing companies, as it formed a junction with both the North and South Staffordshire ;% lines. The Hon. Gentleman, after explaining the pro ceedings of last session in regard to the line, said that sufficient arrangements had been made in regard to de posits to go to Parliament, without calling on the share holders, and they had every prospect of obtaining the Bill.

In that case, perhaps, the directors would be in a position to pay back the deposits to those that did agree to the amalgamation. Mr. MATTHEW said what had been done was under 33( the deeds of settlement of the two companies, and such ill a return could not be made. Mr. BROWN intimated that he held 1,000 shares, and he thought the proposed line an excellent scheme. If the Bill was obtained he would be glad to buy 1,000 • shares more at par, as the line would have to fall into the hand of some of the great companies. 1 Dr. MACKENZIE explained at some length the cha racter and route of the line now laid out by Mr. Ras % trick. It had been much improved in its engineering 1 peculiarities since last year. It started from the North Staffordshire line at the Uttoxeter station, and terminated at the Walsall station of the South Staffordshire. u Mr. CLARK thought if the directors meant well they ought to publish a statement of their accounts. In answer to a question put by Mr. Brown, Dr. MACKENZIE complained that there was no oppo sition last year in the Lords, but they had strong oppo i% sition in the Commons from the Birmingham Canal e s' Company and Lord Anglesey. This opposition would be withdrawn this year. The line was locally very pow erfully supported. % After some further discussion, a resolution was una nimously agreed to, appointing a committee of five shareholders to communicate with the directors, so as to obtain all necessary information respecting the affairs of the companies, such to be submitted afterwards to the shareholders, in order that they might determine ice. 1 what course to p ursue .

SUGAR.—To-day there were plenty of buyers of West India Sugar of all descriptions, and rather higher rates were offered, but business of moment was prevented by the scanty and indifferent supply at market.

MAurtrrtus.—This afternoon the market was better sup plied with Mauritius Sugar, two parcels amounting to 376 casks and 12,488 bags were offered at public sale, but the de mand was active and the whole sold at an advance on former rates of Gd to Is per cwt.

Prices vary little from those of last year, but stocks are less, consumption greater. Cocoa Nut Oil has been purchased with avidity, and owing to the supply being small a further rise in prices has taken place. The demand has been active for Palm Oil, and owing to the limited quantity brought to market buyers have been compelled to pay further advanced rates. Amesican Lard Oil has been sparingly dealt in at 38s to 44s per cwt., and there is a large quantity on offer. Rape Seed Oil has been in much better request, and prices are firmer. In Olive extensive purchases have been made, and prices must now be quoted 50s to 60s per tun higher. There has been much activity for Linseed Oil, and prices have risen Is 6d to 2s per cwt. TALLOW.—For delivery in Spring months prices have fallen to 49s to 49s 3d per cwt, but upon these terms many contracts have been entered into, and prices are not expected to be much lower, as the arrrivals will continue deficient those of former season, the trade everywhere scant ily supplied, the stock being less than it was last year, and the consumption going on largely. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. NE TV COURT. (Before the RECORDER and Mr. Alderman MusonovE.) George Horsjord, 19, a dyer, pleaded guilty to an in dictment charging him with stealing fifteen skeins of silk, value 305., the property of Henry Le Livier, his master. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.) Mr. RourNsom addressed the Jury for the defence, and contended that the prisoner had no felonious intention in taking away the goods. After the LEARNED RECORDER had summed up the evidence at great length, the Jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and the prisoner was sentenced to be transported for the term of seven years. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Mr. Alderman Hooper was engaged for some hours in the investigation of a charge of assault preferred by John M`Nally against George Brown, City policeman No. 222, who has recently joined the force, but was formerly in the Metropolitan police. M'Nally was charged with rescuing from the officer a man who had assaulted him. A certificate from the house-surgeon of St. Bartho lomew's Hospital was put in, stating that M'Nally's wife remained a patient from the injuries she had received, and was in a state of danger. It was understood to be an almost hopeless case, and therefore the magistrate took the evidence at great length. Ellen Connelly, of St. Dunstan's-court, Old Bailey, stated that two friends came to visit her husband on Sunday. Their names were Grady and William Kelly. In the evening they all went to the Red Cow, King street, Smithfield, where they had some beer. On leav ing the house, about twelve o'clock, a quarrel took place between Kelly and some men who were passing. Brown, the policeman, came up, and insisted on all the persons going away immediately. Kelly crossed the road to bid his friends good night, and was followed by Brown, who pushed Grady and Kelly towards Smith field, and eventually took Grady into custody. A scuffle took place, and Grady got away. Brown then seized M'Nally, a friend of Grady's, who had accidentally come up. M'Nally's wife interfered to get her husband away, when the policeman knocked her down with his truncheon, and on M'Nally's endeavouring to lift up his wife he was also knocked down by the policeman, who struck him twice on the head while he was lying on the ground. The policeman said he ordered them to move on half a dozen times before he took Grady into custody. They moved a little way, and then stopped to wrangle ; such conduct soon gathered a crowd, and caused confusion in the street, which it was his duty to prevent. Grady pushed him several times before he took him into custody. On the part of the policeman, Maria Alder, of Little New-street, Gough-square, and Mrs. Isted, of 29, King street, who saw the affray from the windows of their dif ferent houses were examined. They stated that there was a rush by the mob, and the policeman was knocked down three or four times. She heard the voice of a woman, who was very active in the rescue. She said, " Don't let him be taken ; the policeman is drunk." They thought the policeman's life was in danger. He drew his staff and knocked a woman down, and flourished his staff round to keep the people off him. An extra policeman, named Murrell, who went to Brown's assistance, stated that he saw the policeman knocked down under the feet of some cattle. Witness took Mrs. M'Nally into custody. She would not walk, but stopped. Brown struck her on the shoulder with his staff. She walked in a stooping position to the station house, and thence to the hospital. He did not know she was hurt till he saw the blood running down her neck at the station-house. Sergeant Patterson proved that Brown was quite sober. Mr. Alderman Hooma said he would release John M'Nally on his promise to appear on Saturday week, and in the meantime he hoped the commissioner would in vestigate the conduct of the officer. An inspector said the commissioner had already ordered a strict inquiry. Mr. Alderman IIOOPER adjourned the further hearing of the case to the 7th of November. WORSHIP-STREET. William Willis, a carman in the service of a railway truck conveyance contrsc'or at Whitechapel, was placed at the bar before Mr. Bingham, charged with having by negligent driving seriously injured a married woman named Elizabeth Mills, and her father, Mr. Edward Bash field, a retired Custom-house officer, who is confined to his bed without hopes of recovery. Mrs. Mills, who was supported into Court upon crutches, and appeared to be in a very debilitated con dition, stated that while proceeding through Devonshire street, Mile-end-road, on the 14th ult., leading her father, who is 85 years of age, and totally blind, a massive railway -truck carriage, drawn by three horses, suddenly came up, and turned the corner so recklessly, that one of its hind wheels was thrown upon the pavement upon which she and her father were walking, and before they had time to escape they were both violently struck and flung to the ground by it. The prisoner, who was seated in front of the vehicle, apparently asleep, and without any reins, or the slightest control over the horses, was instantly secured by a policeman. Witness was carried to the London Hospital, and her father was coveyed to his own residence, when it was ascertained that one of her legs had been broken, and that her father's hip had been so crushed that although he had been confined to his bed under surgical care ever since the occurrence, it was impossible, from his advanced age, that ke could ever recover from the injuries he had sustained. In answer to the charge the prisoner said he was ex cessively tired, in consequence of having walked a long distance that day, and that although he was certainly seated in front of the truck, as the proseeutrix had stated, the occurrence, which he sincerely regretted, was purely accidental, and resulted from the circumstance of there being no post or kerb at the spot in question to keep vehicles off the footway. Mr. Biszcsram said that the case was far too serious for his limited powers to deal with, and he should there fore direct the depositions of the witnesses to be taken, and committed the prisoner for trial at the sessions. GuN COTTON.—We have to record the occurrence of an accident to the son of the eminent gun-maker of Bond-street, which might have been attended with seri ous consequences. Mr. Lancaster was engaged with Mr. Taylor in making some experiments on the projec tile power of gun-cotton, and several charges of 50 grains each, with if ounce of shot, had been fired from a strong 14-guage gun with perfect safety, when on increasing the charge to 83 grains and 1 ounce of shot, the gun burst with great violence. The sleeve of Mr. Labeaster's coat was torn through, and he received several slight wounds on the fleshy part of his arm, none of which, we are happy to add, are cf a serious character. In some previous experiments which Mr. Lancaster had made with the cotton of Dr. Schonbein, in the presence of that gentleman and Professor Faraday, the same quantity of cotton had been fired with perfect safety. We, there fore, caution those who may be tryi ng exper i ments with this powerfully explosive compound to be exceedingly cautious, as an a cc id en t h as cccurred even in such 'ex perienced hands. The gun used by Mr. Lancaster had been previously proved with an ounce of powder and a ball fitting the bore. BENEVOLENT SOCIETY or MATEs.—Wednesday even ing the half-yearlygeneral meeting of the members of this society, which is composed of gentlemen who received their education at Christ's Hospital, was held at the London Tavern ; J. Perkins, Esq., in the chair. The report stated that the receipts for the half-year amounted to 4281. 18s. 6d., including a previous balance of 1071. subscriptions, 1641. 17s. interest on stock (amounting to 6,1000, &c., and deducting the disbursements, a balance of 1151. remained. There are at present 14 pensioners on the funds. The report stated that his Royal High bees the Duke of Cambridge had consented to preside at he neat annual festival, IMPROVEMENT OF THE CONDI TION OF THE LABOURERS OF DORSET. DORCHESTER, TUESDAY.—A highly influential meeting, was held in the Assize Hall here yesterday afternoon, under the auspices of the High Sheriff of the county the Lord Bishop of the diocese, and a host of county magistrates and clergymen, for the purpose of " esta blishing a Labourers' Friend Society for the district, with the view of bettering the condition, morally and physically, of the rural labourers and working mechanics and artisans, by carrying out the field-garden allotment system, under judicious regulations." At the time the High Sheriff took the chair, we noticed around him— The Right Rev. Dr. Denison, Lord Bishop of Salisbury; John Floyer, Esq., M.P.; Richard Brinsley Sheridan, Esq., M.P.; the Hon. and Rev. W. H. Scott ; A. H. D. Acland, John Cree, F. B. Martin, Robert Williams, John Mansell, Esqs. ; Captain Foster, the Rev. J. A. Templar and John Venables, county magistrates ; the Venerable the Archdeacon of Dorset, the Revs. C. IV. Bingham, J. Lane, E. Ludlow, G. Wood, R. Smith, G. Fisher, N. Handley, Sanderson Robins, J. Philips, T. Thompson, J. Frenow, 0. Fisher, &c. Among the ladies—Mrs. Sheridan, Mrs. John Floyer, Mrs. C. W. Bingham, Mrs. Martin, &c. &c. The HIGH SHERIFF, after briefly touching upon the general objects of such societies as they had met to form, said that it had been generally understood from what took place at a large preliminary meeting of the committee, that the society would not confine itself to the objects specified in the printed advertisements, and be confessed that he hoped to see a considerable exten sion of those objects. He hoped to see such an amount of funds as would enable them to give premiums for such things as domestic economy —for length of service—for those who had kept their children at school the longest time, and with the best results —for the best cultivated garden—for the best garden produce, &c. He felt a peculiar pleasure in presiding on that occasion, because he had occasionally to attend in that Court on much less pleasant business ; and if, as the organ of the quarter sessions, he had had to administer punishment for offences against the laws, it was now a very pleasing duty to preside at a meeting for the formation of a society which was to reward the honest and industri ous.—(Cheers.) The High Sheriff concluded by read ing letters from H. Ker Seymour, Esq., M.P., and the Rev. 11. F. Yeatman, apologising for absence, and then called on The Lord Bishop of SALISBURY, who proposed the first resolution. His Lordship said he had listened with great pleasure to the observations With which the High Sheriff had introduced the business of the meeting, and in which he had in some measure anticipated some re marks which he might otherwise have been disposed to make. He would proceed at once to read a resolution which was entrusted to him, and which was to this effect:—" That it is obvious that the present state and condition of the labouring classes are such as to give oc casion for the immediate efforts of an energetic and well directed benevolence to produce a permanent and effectual improvement in their condition." Ile felt that this reso lution might more properly, in some respects, have been committed to the charge of those around him, who, from their own personal acquaintance with the condition of the labourers, and more especially with the condition of the labourers of this county, would be enabled to sup port the resolution by statements of facts which it would not be in his power to bring before them, and by argu ments which he had not the means to adduce. The calls of duty which laid upon him brought him little into immediate connexion with the labouring poor—with those whose interests it was the more especial object of the association which it was row proposed to establish to advance. But if on that account it might have been more fitting that such a resolution should have been en trusted to some other hands, he might be permitted to say that there was surely no man who was bound under deeper or more sacred responsibilities than himself, to have a deep and earnest sympathy with the condition of the poor —not only in this or that locality throughout the county, but in every individual parish and every lo cality, with each and all of which he was connected by a tic the most sacred and the most important. And, perhaps, in one respect it might be as well that he who had to move the resolution should not be connected with any particular parish or locality in that county, more es pecially than with the neighbouring county; inasmuch as it could not by possibility be supposed that in advert ing to the condition of the labouring class in general, it was intended to imply that that condition differed from the state of the labouring class in any part of the United Kingdom, placed under similar circumstances; or that he had any intention to allude to those discussions that had been raised, and which had excited an angry feeling in the community. Ile was sure that it was not the in tention of this association to mix itself up with questions of that kind, and he believed such to be far from the wish of the committee who framed those resolutions. It was far from his own wish to assert that there was any difference in the condition of the labouring classes in that county, and in the condition of those in the other part of his diocese in Wilts, or in any part of the United Kingdom tinder similar circumstances. But by this resolution was implied, that the condition of the labouring classes was worthy to be a subject of more satisfactory contemplation than they allowed it to be; and he would put it to any man who understood the responsibilities under which they laid, whether it was not for their interest to better that condition by any means which experience could suggest or reason advise ? As with the social condition of the individual man, so was it with the condition of the social community. In both conditions it was found imprudent to stand still, for the nation and individuals were either advancing to improvement or tending to de gradation and decay. It might be that in the body po litic different actions might at the same time be going on in different portions, and that one member of the body might dwindle and waste away whilst other parts were subjected to an unnatural and unhealthy growth. No one that looked around him would fail to see that there was going on in this country a progress, and growth, an d increase entirely unexampled. Science was every day bringing to light new discoveries, whi c h i n t h e i r applica tion to the mechanical arts were giving occasion for the increase of capital and the grog th of the na tional wealth. Knowledge was more widely distri buted. Agriculture, trade, commerce, each had in an astonishing degree increased. But it might be a subject of inquiry, whilst there was this growth of wealth, this accumulation (if capital, whether the shgreat mass of the community had their due and proper are in the improvement of the general state. If it were the case that there was in this country at the pre sent time a tendency of wealth, whiht it had increased, to accumulate itself in fewer hands—if there were such a tendency, that whilst the rich grew richer the poor grew poorer—that whilst the few bed a large share of the luxuries of life, the labourers and the men who sup plied those luxuries, had a smaller portion of even that which their necessities required—this was a state which, while it could not but make the philanthropist grieve, must give uneasiness to the statesman and the politician, and it gave them the more readiness to avail themselves of any occasion on which such a tendency might be cor rected, honest industry be improved, and the labouring man be encouraged with hope in the exercise of his honest calling. And this he conceived to be the inten lities of the individual tion of the association which it wltnsypersospooesieadtioton-deaoyuit,oi re, f h l ip t c h oh a n, t s h o f ti r e r all , depended mainly t h h is ere So b u rntra( p )3ll n , en n 'd t t—o h hr e enco e op x tui exertions u t e i dr o lood n fe s tdht of all all those who were conscious of society t i y n c h o i u s l d o n w o n t those responsibilities in his own private sphere to carry perhaps do very much in its own corporate capaciry, but he conceived that every individual who united himself out himself. He conc g ei e v d ed him th s a o t lf t particular sphere, s s p o h c e ie re ty , p to le d d o that which God placed within his reach for the improvement of those beneath him -to encourage their industry, promote their education, and raise as far as possible their social state. And, indeed, he might be permitted to state that they were already tll members of an association which promised these e things. They were already, by virt ue of their incorpo ration into the church of Christ, u n d er the law, that when o ne mem b er su ffers, all the members suffer with t i o ; n and rejoice thethatru with e w o h r e when one th e whosey memb er wereeon d unact erejoices,ivbrs of an ass oc i as all the mem bersas" to b ear one another's burden, and so fulfil the law of Christ."-- (Applause.) The association which they proposed to round was but a practical means of carrying out, th e higher law. He conceived that they were in the path of duty when endeavouring by all means in their power to lighten the burden of poverty, and to stimulate indus try, to encourage honest exertion, to cheer depression, and by raising the physical state of the labouring classes, to give a better opportunity for the cultivation of their spiritual being.— (Much applause.) Mr. FLOYER, one of the members for the county, seconded this resolution, and said he did so the more rettaily because he believed it required very few obser vations. I t wou ld b e hi ghly improper in him to make any particular mention of his interest in the labouring classes, Which if he exhibited in that sphere in which Providence had placed him, might well be spared, and if he showed a neglect of that interest in his private sphere, such observations would be idle and fruitless. How the labouring classes might be brought to a parti cipation of those luxuries and comforts enjoyed by all other classes, was a subject which had received much consideration but he thought if they wished to do real, permanent, and vital good, it must be through the means of the labouring classes and the mechanics themselves. It was known that the system generally adopted in the neighbourho o d was for the cottage to have a garden at tached to it, and where that garden was accompanied by an allotment of potato ground in the field, he believed this was one of the best means of meeting the wants of the labouring classes. He thought there were many reasons for coming to this conclusion, one of which was that (bef ore t hi s visitation) a lug of potato ground gene rally produced two bushels ; 20 lug would therefore produce 40 bushels, or a larger amount of food than he thought could be furnished by any system for the improvement of the labouring classes. He was not prepared to say that where this was carried out the allotment system was an improvement, but there was abundant room for the Operations of this society if they left out of account all the places where this system was followed. It was well known that adjoining that town there was a large parish in which there were dwellings without any gardens at all, and the incumbent of which had endeavoured in vain for a length of time to obtain land. He believed there were many places to a certain extent in the same condition, and he thought that for the first few years they would have quite as much as they would be enabled todo. Mr. A. H. DYKE ACLAND proposed the next reso lution to this effect :—" That it is evident from the re on the utility o f a ll otments of land to the poor, port of the S e l ect C ommittee of the House of Commons and from various oth er aut h entic documents, that land allotments or the field- gar d en system, under judicious regulations, tend to add to the resources to increase the comforts,: and improve th e moral habits of the labouring classes. " The speaker e n f orce d by argument drawn from the re porti alluded to th e various principles enunciated in the re resolution ; and h e di d believe, he said, that if the anytWo principle § contained i u these two tests of OCTOBEIR. 30, lB4 ROYAL SEA-BATHING INFIRMARY. The fifty first anniversary dinner of this charity was held at the London Coffee-house, Ludgate-hill, yesterday evening. The Right Hon. the Lord Mayor presided, being sup ported by Mr. Alderman Challis and Mr. R. W. Ken nard, Sheriffs of London and Middlesex, and other active friends of the institution. The entertainment itself was highly creditable to the Messrs. Lovegrove. After the cloth had been drawn, and the usual loyal and national toasts had received due honour, the Lord Mayor proposed the leading toast of the evening, viz., "Pros perity to the Royal Sea-bathing Infirmary ;" and, in order to show the increased prosperity and usefulness of the institution, stated that the number of patients admitted, which was, in the first year (1796), only 16, had increased in each succeeding year, until, during the past season, 716 persons had been received either as in-door or as out-door patients; a statement which elicited loud applause. It was further remarked, that although the bulk of the subscriptions had hitherto come from the metropolis, there was the greatest desire, on the part of the managing body, to derive support from the provinces, as well as to extend the benefits of the institution to persons living in distant parts of the country. Amongst the toasts was that of "Mr. B. B. Cabbell and the Vice-Presidents of the Institution." In acknowledging the compliment, Mr. Cabbell observed, that one great impediment to the beneficial operation of the institution was the charge now thrown upon the patients of defraying the expenses of their board. Mr. Alderman Gibbs, the treasurer, expressed his desire to see this burden removed from the recipient s o f t h e b ene fit s o f th e charity, remarking, at the same ti me , th a t, in order to effect this object, it would be necessary that about 30,0001. should be invested in the Three per Cents. The toasts of the eveningin cluded " The Chairman," " Mr. Coulson and the Medical Board," " Mr. Alderman Gibbs, the treasurer," " The Sheriffs," &c. Mr. J. Paul, the secretary, announced several subscriptions, the aggregate amount of which was 595/. 16s SALARIES OF THE JUDGES OF THE COURTS OF EQUITY AND LAW.—The Learned Judges of the several courts of equity and law will resume their labours on Monday next, on the commencement of Michaelmas term. There are twenty-two judges of the superior Courts in England, whose salaries amount to 123,5771. a year. The five judges of the Court of Chancery are paid 33,0001. Tho Lord Chancellor has 10,0001 ; Master of the Rolls, 7,0001.; Vice-Chancellor of Bo g . land, 6,0001. ; and the two Vice-Chancellors, Knight Bruce and Wigram, 5,0001. The six judges of the Court of Queen's Bench are paid 32,0001. The Lord Chief Justice has 8,000/.; and the Puisne Judges 5,0001. each. The six judges of the Court of Common Pleas have similar sums, as also the six judges of the Court of Ex chequer, with the exception of the Chief Baron, who has a salarj' of 7,0001. The judge of the Court of Admi ralty has 4,000/., and the average emoluments of the judge of the Prerogative Court amount to 3,577/, mak ing the number 22, and the united salaries 123,577/. , .... EFFECTS OF HIGH FARES.—The branch of the South-Eastern Railway from Margate to Ramsgate was not opened, as expected, last week. " Under other cir cumstances," says the Kentish Observer, " this would have caused much disappointment and inquiry as to the cause; but so unpopular has this railway company be come, that few cared to ask if it were open or not, or as to the cause of its not being opened. There is no ques tion that the three towns of Margate, Ramsgate, and Broadstairs would have done much better at the latter part of the season had the fares not been raised ; and also that the South-Eastern Company, from their false sterehave been sufferers in a pecuniary point of view. Few will travel from the Isle of Thanet by rail this win ter, unless the prices be lowered, the second-class car. riages made more comfortable, and the third-class covered in. The voyage to London by steam-vessel is cheaper, performed in about the same time as running round by Ashford, and is preferable, in many respects, to riding in the present second and third-class carriages. Passengers meet with civility and liberality from the captains and crews of the steam-boats." The !Arne can not be beid of sho railway. Scripture, " The earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof," and " The poor shall eat and be satisfied " (Loud cheers.)—he held that he had sinned eqully against God and his fellow -creatures who wasted one single farthing on luxuries or needless things, or wasted a single acre of that land whose produce was called for by starving brethren, and who had a right to ask that the land should be cultivated to the utmost possible extent. Now it was distinctly proved in that report that the la bourer could, with perfect faithfulness to his master, cultivate in his leisure hours his land to such an extent as to produce sufficient to support him, if he were quite without wages for thirteen weeks in the year. People were in the habit of coming to him—and God knew he felt for them when they did—and complaining that they were turned off in the winter. What was the farmer's story? lam obliged to provide my capital, and to have it ready to apply at the very moment when it is neces sary, and if I am bound to provide for all these men at all seasons, how am I to bring my capital to bear at the moment when it is required? He was not going to dis cuss that, for this was not the proper time for dis cussing it, but here was an answer—that in a certain part of the year when a labourer could not be profitably employed by the farmer, here was a system by which provision could be made beforehand for the hour of necessity. There was one fact which came under his own notice bearing upon the question. There was con noted with the gaol of that county a fund called the " charity fund," from which certain sums were given to persons who had been in the gaol, and on their libera tion worked continuously for the same master for three, six, or twelve months. At the end of the period they received rewards and clothes in proportion to the length of their servitude, it being provided that it should be shown that during that period they attended Divine service. That fund had been established 20 years. During the first 10 years there were only 10 applicants, but during the last 10 years 103 had received gifts from the fund, and of those 103 three only had been re-com mitted to gaol. It might be asked, what had that to do with the subject before them ? He thought it had much to do with it. It showed that get such a man into honest employment, and there was some security, under God's blessing, of his not reverting again to the path of crime, but ground for reasonable hope of his becoming an honest, trustworthy member of society. The Hon. and Rev. W. SCOTT, Rector of Maiden Newton, 'seconded the resolution, a nd regre tt e d th at t h e person through whom he had had access to documents bearing upon the case was not present. He regretted it, because he was quite sure that the community had mistaken his views, and that the objections which they had taken to his views were most unworthy. He was sure that such restraints kept them closer to their duties than if their faults were passed over in silence. [Mr. Scott was supposed to allude to Mr. Osborne.] He thought they must admit that they were not on an equal footing with many parts of the country, for in the sister country there were no labourers receiving under 155., and during harvest they often received 205., and in Northumberland he was invariably hired by the year ; that he had his cottage rent free; that he had his thousand yards of potato ground provided by the farmer, and in addition to that he had the whole of his pay in goods, which in times of scarcity was a most valuable accom modation. The Northumberland "hind," as he was called, had invariably a cow kept for him, his four and a half quarters of oats, his three quarters of barley, his quarter and a half of peas, and his three bushels of wheat. In the parish of Nocton, in Lincolnshire, the wages were the same as those he had mentioned. That was not the case there; but let him tell them what would be the case, if they did not follow the example. The labourers were already leaving this country for the wilds of Australia and the great plains of America, and when they learned these things, as they must soon from the ready communication that took place between one part and another, he thought they would not remain there when they learned that they could obtain a better remu• neration elsewhere.—(Cheers.) He was not desirous of laying the whole blame of this upon the farmer, for if he raised a body of labourers only one shilling a week, his outlay might be increased 501. a year, and that was more than they expected others to give in charity, for charity it was, though it was a charity that would re dound to their own welfare. He knew it was said with a certain degree of fairness that the landlord must bear his part in that increase of wages ; but he told them it must begin with the farmers, the landlord had it not in his power to raise the rate of wages ; but he did not mean to say whether the land of that country was not held at too high a rent—if so, let the tenant not offer too high.—(Laughter.) A heavy and deep responsi bility certainly rested upon the landowner with regard to the condition of the dwellings, but that would be the subject of another resolution. When he entered on the living of Maiden Newton he was ironically congratu lated on his having got the worst parish in the county to deal with, and he himself was no less than six times in that very court as a prosecutor. In the last three years, during which allotments had been in operation in his parish, he did not think he had been seen there.— (Applause.) In the first year of the allotments two con victions took place, and there were consequently two forfeitures ; but from that time not one out of 80 hol ders had committed any offence to call them up before a magistrate. There was one result which, as a clergy man, he took especial pleasure in contemplating, viz., that when cultivating the soil the labourer might be in duced to think of the cultivation of his soul ; and that when he found that by due attendance to his garden he was reaping a reward, he might be led to consider that by attending to the cultivation of his soul he might reap the rewards thereof in the heavenly kingdom. The Rev. H. URQUHART proposed the next resolution, which expressed the desirableness of obtaining the co operation of owners and occupiers of landed property, to promote an improvement in ventilation, draining, and internal accommodation. Mr. JOHN CHAMEN, farmer, of Charminster, seconded the proposition. The Rev. SANDERSON ROBINS, without preliminary observation, moved the formation of the society, which Mr. J. F. HODGES seconded; The Rev. C. W. BINGHAM, in proposing that the Earl of Orford, the Lord Bishop of the dioces e , an d L or d Rivers, be' patrons of the society, and that a committee he formed, said, in what was his parish (Syding) he en deavoured to establish the system, but for the first six years he tried in vain. He found that the landowner would not assist him; that the farmers were always I against him; and it was only about two years ago that he was enabled to purchase land and carry out his inten tions. With respect to what had been said about the state of the dwellings of the poor, he would only re mark that he had been carried to Fordington, where he saw what he was sure would surprise those who knew Dorchester best. He saw there places where the people were crowded together in a manner that he had thought was confined to the manufacturing districtc. Mr. JOHN HAYNE seconded the resolution; and after a vote of thanks had been given to the Lord Bishop and the High Sheriff, and acknowledged, the meeting separated. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. CITY, TIIITUSDAY. TIMES.—The market for Consols was eenselerebly influenced to-day by large speculative sales, which re duced quotations about five-eighths per cent. Various rumours have been circulated accounting for this sudden change in the appearance of business. Many of the dealers seem to apprehend ill consequences from the con templated Spanish expedition into Portugal; and others profess to believe some fresh movement has occurred in the French Cabinet inimical to English interests. Al though no positive information has transpired which would give a clue to the real operating cause, the fact that the speculators who are supposed to receive ex presses from the other side of the Channel have been the chief sellers would lead to the inference that it is either Spanish or French events which have contributed to pro duce this decline.

A meeting of the shareholders of the Australian Mining Company was held to-day, at which the direc tors presented a very flattering report. The recent discoveries of minerals in the neighbourhood of Ade laide had prepared the parties interested for some very favourable details concerning the position of their pro- perty. It seems that the directors are daily expecting official intelligence of the grant of 20,000 acres of land, situated near Reedy Creek, where large quantities of copper ore have been found, which intelligence was only delayed till the claim of " royalty" was settled, The samples of ore received yield an average of 30' per cent. re marke LI beavi. POST.—There was to-day a fall of unusual magni tude in the public securities. The Government brokers purchased 5,000 Three-and-a-Quarter per Cent. stock, at 95k, for account of the savings'- banks, 5,000 of the same stock, at the same rate, for account of the unclaimed dividends, and 1,200 Old South Sea Annuities, at 931, for account of the Commissioners for the reduc tion of the National Debt. At the close of business Bank Stock was quoted 204 k to 205 k; Three per Cent. Reduced 93i to -1 , -; Three- an d- a -Q uarter per Cent. Stock 951 to I; Consuls 941 for Money, and 94+ to afor Ac count; Exchequer-bills 9s. to 12s. premium. The supply of money was abundant for all ordinary purposes, and, that the markets should have given way to the extent witnessed, was a matter of some surprise, particularly as there was really little appearance of business. Consols were at one moment as low as 94k for Money, establishing a decline of fully i to 1. per cent., and, sympathising with these, almost everything else was quoted nominally lower, such as foreign stocks of various kinds, and, in a very minor degree, rail ways and other shares. Different rumours were in circulation to account for the fall, but the ap prehensions of the public having been once par tially awakened by statements announcing impor tant movements in our arsenals and dockyards, there can be little doubt that an advantage was taken by un scrupulous speculators, of the opportunity afforded them of working as strongly as possible upon sensitive minds, by the employment of all kinds of inventions and ex aggerations for the promotion of their own selfish ob jects. The state of Portugal was the leading topic of the day. In the facts which have been made matter of newspaper comment, connected with the recent revolu tion, good reason is thought to have been found for the belief that there must now be a total severance of the amicable relations which have for so many years sub sisted between France and England. All the mischief is ascribed to the intriguing propensities of his Majesty the King of the French, and hence it is that a cause belli is considered to have arisen, which may adequately ex plain the motive for the increase spoken of in our naval and military forces. The marching of a Spanish army into Portugal, and the preparation for foreign service--the departure, in fact, of an English fleet, the throwing up of additional defences at Gibraltar, and the like, were among the subjects of the many agreeable rumours to which it was the fate of timid stock-holders to have to listen from about eleven o'clock until nearly the close of the markets. gventually, however, a stand was made by influential parties, and the reports of the day being essentially vague, there was at length a rally, the home securities recovering themselves to the extent of about 4 per cent. The intelligence upon which the earlier operations were based seems to have been derived almost exclusively from newspaper sources. As such is the case, our readers may be able to judge for themselves of the merits of the reports in question which have a political bearing. The condition of Ireland is still a cause of solicitude, and the foreign exchanges having turned against this country, there may be some exporta tion of the precious metals. We are of opinion, never theless, that the fears entertained on these, as well as on the other heads alluded to, have been needlessly grea RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS, MANCHESTER, OCTOBER 29.

TESTIMONIAL TO MISS HELEN FAUCIT.—Most of our readers will remember that, upon the revival of the Greek drama in Dublin some two years ago, a number of gentlemen, distinguished in literature and ar t, and admirers of Miss H e l en Faucit 's noble impersonation of Antigone, presented her with an address expressive of their high estimation of her talents. With this address was intended to have been presented an ornament, a de scription of which, from the design of Mr. Burton, we gave on a former occasion. This ornament, which is in the form of an antique brooch, has, owing to the costly and elaborate nature of the workmanship upon it, been necessarily a long time in the artist's bands. It has, however, been completed for some months, and the delay which has since occurred arose from the desire of the committee to present it to Miss Faucit in person, on the occasion of her next visit to Ireland. On Friday, there fore, it wag presented by a deputation from the sub scribers, when Miss Faucit expressed her extreme gra tification at the beauty of the ornament, and returned thanks for what she considered the proudest memorial of her professional career. The brooch is entirely of native gold, and measures about three inches in dia meter. In the centre is an exquisitely formed figure in high relief of Antigone bending over the urn of Polynyces, set in a concave disc of white enamel, bearing the word " Antigone" around it in ancient Greek charac ters. On either side of this medallion are tragic masks of Antigone and Creon, entwined within the coils of the Cadmian serpent, surrounded by a concave fillet, in which are set three large emeralds of the finest water ; the whole enclosed in a wreath of the sacred olive. In dependent of the classic elegance of the design, it is a specimen of workman :hip, and that too of the highest order, of which any country may be proud, and speaks well for the present rising condition of the arts amongst us. It reflects great credit on the house of Mr. West, and particularly on Mr. Teare, who, we understand, is the workman who has thus so successfully carried out the original design. A suitable inscription, expressive of the admiration which the lovers of the drama enter tain of Miss Helen Fancies embodiment of the highest and noblest conceptions, both of our own and ancient times, will, we hear, be engraved on the reverse of the ornament. We recognised the brooch as clasping th e folds of Antigone's drapery on Saturday night last.— Lublin Freeman's Journal.
