FRANCE. The Mouileur du Leiret gives the following account of the arrival of the President of the Republic at Orleans : " The President arrived at Orleans at seven o'clock lad evening. As the journey of the President was ex zlasively for the interest and amelioration of a country hitherto neglected, it was wished to avoid the loss of time , :sttsed by official presentations, and for that reason the exeunt of his intended arrival was contradicted by the journals. The Prince, on arriving at the terminus, was received by the Prefect of the Loiret, and the Prefects of the Cher and the Loir-et-Cher. General Cesar, the Commandant of the Gendarmery, and other authorities, were also present. Several carriages were in wait ing for the Prince and his suite. Among the persons who accompanied him were the Ministers of the Interior, Public Instruction, and Justice; M. Dumas, ex-Minister of Commerce; Dpi. Becquerrel, Member of the Council-General of the Loiret, General Roguet, aide-de-camp of the President; M. de Beville, orderly officer of the Prince; M. Regnault, member of the In stitute; M. Derry, Inspector-General of the Ponta et Chaussees; M. de Franqueville, chef de division at the Department of Public Works, &c. The President and his suite on entering their carriages immediately drove t o h e p re fecture, where a grand dinner was given. Daring their passage no cry of any kind was raised. No presentation took place, except that of the of fisers of the 27th Regiment, by General Coeur. The President expressed to the general his happiness at meeting the officers of so fine a regiment as the 27th, with whose brilliant services in the maintenance of order he was well acquainted. The general at ' terwards resented Captain Lireqn-, of that ri.ginaent, for whom *demanded the er.)ss of the Legion of Honour. The resident replied that be was well acquainted with the ame end servlc4s of Captain Lereqne, and that he was well deserving. of the regard ciemaucted, and he was on the spot named Chevalier of the order. At this mo ment, a poor private of the 27th, holding a petition in his hand, endeavoured to gain admission to the President to solicit his kindness in behalf of his aged father. A young sub-lieutenant saw the soldier, and, feeling for his embarrassment, took him by the arm, and led him towards the President, saying!--‘ Monseigneur, here is a soldier who wishes you to receive a petition, in which be supplicates your kindness in behalf of his aged father.' rhe President took the paper with the greatest kindness, and in a few minutes after handed to the sub-lieutenant a two hundred francs note for the father of the soldier. The President slept at the pre fecture, where an apartment had been prepared for him. This morning (Thursday) he will leave at six o'clock by a special train for the Sologne. He will stop at Monte-Beauyron, Brinon, Sanvigny, eec., and return in the evening to dine at La Ferte de St. Aubin, from whence he will return direct to Paris, without stopping at Orleans. He is accompanied in his excursion in the Sologne by all the persons who came with him from Paris, by the Prefects of the Loiret, the Cher, and the Loir-et-Cher, by ill. Machart, the engi neer-in-chief, and by several of the ordinary engineers, &a. It is to be hoped that this visit of the Chief of the State into the Sologne will not be without advantage to that country, which has so long anxiously waited for improvement, and that the plans long since submitted to the approbation of the Government will at length be carried into execution." It is positively stated, says the Constitutionnel, that the Legislative Body is to have a Bill before long submitted to it, having for object to modify Arts. 5, 6, and 7 of the code of criminal instruction. These articles relate to crimes committed by French sub jects in foreign countries. The new Bill is above all intended to complete the legislation, by applying it not merely to crimes, but also to certain misde meanours (offences of the press for instance) com mitted in foreign countries. This Bill is now under examination of the Council of State. According to the treaty passed — betweeen t h e Mi nister of Public Works and the parries applying for the concession of the Paris to Cann Railway, the line from Path to Caen and Cherbourg is to join the Rouen Railway above th e t unne l o f Rolleboise. The line is divided into two sections, one from Rouen to Caen, and the second from Caen to Cherbourg. The first section is to be executed in three years, the expense being estimated at 52 millions. As the State gives a 'subvention of 16 millions, the capital to be raised by the company is 36 millions, of which 24 are to be in bonds. The State guarantees for 50 years an interest of four per cent. The execution of the second section is to commence at the end of the term flied for the first, and is to be concluded within a delay of three years from that period. This section is to be executed in the conditions of the law of June, 1842 (1). Three-fourths of the capital the 24 mil- 1 lions have been reserved to the shareholders of the Rouen Company, two Rouen shares giving a right to one share of the Caen and Cherbourg. The Vierzon Railway shareholders, at a general meeting, held on Wednesday, voted by a majority of 589 to 7 the amalgamation of the company with the Orleans line. BELGIUM. The works for the establishment of a submarine telegraph between England and Belgium will be commenced without delay. The wires are ready. The erfreme points of the line will be—in England, at Dover ; in Belgium, at Nieuport, and not Ostend. As soon as the Dover•Nieuport line of telegraph i 3 established Mr. BRETT will return to Russia, whither he has been summoned by the Emperor NICIIOLAS. Brus9els journals state that there was such a severe frost in the night of Monday in that city and its vicinity that several cart loads of ice were ob tained. The Independance of Brussels says--" A grave fact has just occurred. The sovereign families whose in tsrests were compromised by the decree of the 221 of January against the Orleans property, presented through their Ministers some remonstrance to the French Government ; but they are told that no notice could be taken of them, and that the decree must ab solutely be carried into etT,'ct." SWITZERLAND. The final examination of the ballot opened at Berne, as to whether the present authorities should remain in power, has given as a definitive result:— Against e revocation For the revocation The Conservative majority has therefore gained by 5 ,845 votes. The success of the moderate party at Berne has been received with acclamation throughout all Swi zerland. This is the rudest check which the Radical party has ever experienced. TURKEY. The SULTAN has appointed SULEYMAN PACHA, member of the Divan, to the post of Governor- Ge ne al of Brussa ; RESCRID PACIIA, general in cotrAnand of Anatolia, to be commandant-general of Ginstantinople ; and Hartz PAcHA to succeed to the ...Zee held by RESCUID w the B r i t i s h Secretary of Legation, Mr. AwsoN, was sent acme time ago to Belgrade, fur the purpose of arranging the differences which had arisen between the local Government of that place with the British Consulate, has returned hither by the steamer from Galatz, after having succeeded in the accom plishment of his mission.

DREADFUL COLLIERY ACCIDENT.---01 1 Monday l oer night a terrible calam it y o ccurred at the Marehay C ll• av in the township of Ripley , Derbyshire, by which tw o ' human beings, and probably three , lost their lives. A young man named John Bacon, whose duty it is to go down one of e pits for mending the ventilation fire, was about to descend the shaft at the usual time for that purpose, when twe lads who worked at Denby Pottery, asked to be allowed to ae: company him. They prepared to do so, when almost as s)on as the engine was set in motion, the machinery on which the rope was wound became detached, and they were dashed to the bottom with fearful velocity, the rope and drum falling upon them. A considerable time elapsed before they could be reached, which at length they were by another shaft, when a frightful spectacle presented itself. Bacon was almost roasted, having fallen into the fire. H e i i was quire dead. A second, Darned Hamlet Smith, son o f 1 Mr. Daniel Smith, painter, died the following morning, an d the third is not expected to recover.

THE EREBUS AND TERROR.—We have reason to be lieve that Sir Edward Parry, and other experienced Arctic voyagers, entertain the opinion that the ships seen by the merchantmen attached to the iceberg, off Newfoundland, were in reality the Erebus and Terror, abandoned by Sir John Franklin and his companions. LE VOL DE Ad'AlGLE,—Great excitement has been produced during the week at the Royal Military College, Chelsea, in consequence of the discovery, on Friday, that the eagle which was captured by the 87th Fusiliers from the French, at the battle of Borrosa, was stolen from the chapel of that establishment. To all appearance, the culprit must have been well ac quainted with the approaches, for he entered through the trap-door in the roof over the chapel, and descended the belfry stairs; he then obtained access to the organ loft, and appears to have hooked up the staff and sawed off the eagle. He must have been disturbed in his oper ations, for he left his boots behind him, and threw the greater part of the flag staff into the field, only retaining the eagle. No clue has yet been obtained that might lead to the apprehension of the offender. The whole of the eagles captured from the enemy in the Peninsnlar, and at Waterloo, were originally deposited in the Guards' Chapel at Whitehall, but, during the reign of William the Fourth, it was considered that Chelsea Hospital, being the retreat of the warriors from all the army branches of the service, was the most proper receptacle for such trephies, and they were consequently removed, and many other captured standards are to be found in that establishment, in addition to the Imperial eagles. ME COMMAND IN AUSTRALIA.—It iS with much pleasure that we have to notice this week the step taken in the right way by the Horse Guards, which effaces some of the faults committed by them in an opposite course, and on which we have felt it our duty to com ment in severe terms. We allude to the appointment of Major General James Campbell, K.H., an old Peninsular soldier and a Regimental Officer, upwards of 20 years commanding the 95th Regiment, to the command of the Troops in Australia and its dependencies, which includes New Zealand. Major General Campbell, we understand, will leave England about July or August next, by one of the new line of steamers, for Sydney. MILITARY INQUIRY.—A court of inquiry assembled at Templemore Barracks on Tuesday, the 20th instant, to investigate charges brought against Lieutenant G. Ackland, Barrackmaster, by Major Hart, commanding depot, 49th Regiment, at Waterford, for barrack damages, wherein he charged the Barrackmaster with " perfect fraud;" Brevet Lieutenant-Colonel Thorold, 92d High landers, president; the Commanding Royal Engineer of the Kilkenny District, and Major Macintosh, Barrack master of Limerick, members. . STAFF.—Major-General R. C. Mansel, R H., left Dublin, for Cork, on 21st April, to assume the corn. mand of the district. SOUTH-WEST DISTRICT.—Mayor-General Simpson returned to Portsmouth from leave of absence on the 18th inst., and resumed the duties of the district.

Macartney, of the 15th Hussars, employed upon the recruiting service in London, has received orders to join his regiment in India. THE ARCTIC SEARCH.-- With reference to our state ment last week, we have reason to believe that Sir Ed ward Belcher has left England with instructions to de tach a portion of his squadron to Melville Island, with the view of anticipating the arrival or, or meeting with Commander M'Clure and the Investigator. THE COMMITTEE ON THE PURSERAGE SYSTEM-- The three officers, viz., Messrs. Grant, Permeter, and Bell, who attended the funeral of the old purserage sys tem, are still in London, arranging matters for the due introduction into the service of its successor. Wo un derstand that the new active list is to consist of 300 officers. DEATH OF MRS. CRAWFORD, DAUGHTER OF ADMIRAL DUNDAS.—We regret to have to announce the sudden death of Mrs. Crawford, the youngest daughter of the estimable Commander-in-Chief in the Mediterranean. The sad event took place on the 20th inst., at Overton, in Lanarkshire. The committee appointed to examine the dockyard accounts, composed of Mr. Murr a y, c hi e f en gineer, of Portsmouth; Mr. Rice, master shipwri g h t ' s ass istant, of Portsmouth; and Mr. Laws, storekeeper, of Sheerness; have arrived at Chatham, and are engaged in examining the accounts of that establishment. The new Admiralty, we are glad to find, are deter mined to carry on and complete the new works of the dockyards. Their Lordships have this week given orders for the works of the North Camber, at Ports mouth, to be proceeded with. The good service gratuity of 501. has been awarded by the Admiralty to Mr. Whitten, foreman of Portsmouth Dockyard. We regret to hear that fever has broken out amongst the men of the 31st Regiment, stationed at Ballyshannon Barracks, and a portion of the detachment is under orders to join head-quarters at Enniskillen.

Ronde!, Esq., President, in the chair), the Pip er rea d was " Tn e E con omy of Rail ways, as a Means of transit, compris i ng t h e c l ass ifi cat i on of the traffic, in relation to the most appropriate speeds for the conveyance of passengers and merchandize," by Mr. Braithwaite P oo l e, Assoc. I nst . C. E. After referri n i to the influence which cheap and rapid communications had on the prosperity of a na tion, the anther alluded to the rise of the railway system in this country, expressing the belief, that it would have been economical and wise if the Legislature had, in the first instance, determined the line on which the system of railways should have been constructed throughout the ki ng d om , so as to have avoided the present ruin ous competition. Tne passenger traffic now exceeded, autuall y , f our t i mes the entire population of Great Britain, and was conveyed at three times the speed and one - third the fares former l y c h arge d b y t h e old stage, or mail coaches, whilst the cost of conveyance of merchandise, minerals, and agricultural produce had rthings to been reduced f u ll fifty per cent ., as compar e d w ith th e rates charg e d on canals and turn pik e ro a d s fift ee n y ears ago. The ordinary fares for passengers ranged from twopence tb ree-fa a halfpenny per mile, and for merchandise from one penny to 6d. per ton per mile. which might be introduced into the working of The author t h en proceede d to consider the e c o no m y railways, an d div i ded the su bject into sixt een diffe rent heads, each of which referred to some particu lar point, w h ere it was thoug h t a reducti on of ex p enses might be made. The pr i ncipa l point advanc e d was t h e amalgamati ng , or wor ki ng , of all the railways in four great divisions, and ensuring unity of management in every department, in the maintenance of the permanent way, and of the rolling stock, as well as in their manufacture, several improvements in the construc tion of the waggons being suggested. It a general classification of trains were arranged throughout the kingdom, separating each class, and running them at different speeds whenever practicable, it was thought that it would be conducive to the interest of all p ar ti es , as i t was urg ed to be a manife s t i n j ust i ce towards those who paid the highest fares, to find third class passengers arriving arrreigvuiniagritay requited to b e strictly t the same tim e w i t h them. Punctuality at tended to for the maintenance of a certain definite speed. Numerous instances were adduced to show the vast advantages and economy of the railway system, without which the penny postage could not have been achieved, or the Great Exhibition rendered available to the multi tude; tho prod uce o f the land and sea in vegetables, fruit, meat, fish, all provisions and fuel, would have re mained as limited in consumption as heretofore; and the poor man's fireside in the rural districts would never have been warmed by coal. _ _ The . paper announced to be read at the meet i ng o f Tuesday, April 27th, Railway Accideets, their cause and means of prevention.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. VICE CHANCELLOR'S COURT, April 24. (I.3Bfore Vice-Chancellor TURNER.) LUMLEY V. WAGNER -HER MAJESTY S THEATRE AND THE ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA. It being undeNtoud that on application would be mldo this morning to dissolve the injunction which was granted yesterday against Madlle. Wagner and Mr. Gye, the court was crowded at an early hour by persons anxious to hear the answer which would be made to the affidavit of Mr. Lumley read yesterday in court. The public anxiety was, however, disappointed, for no men tion was made of the case during the day, and though, es wo are informed, the defendants had been engaged during the whole of the night i n prepar i ng aff i davits, i none had been filed n the case at th e t i me o f t h e r i s i ng of the Court. The minutes of the order of yesterday have been served on Mr. Gye personally, and on the solicitor of Mademoiselle Wagner, and on the part of the defendants, a notice of motion to dis solve the injunction was served on Mr. Lumley's solicitor so late as eleven o'clock l ast n i ght. At this point the matter rests for th., present. EXCHEQUER CHAMBER, April 24.. (Sittings upon Crown Cases R eserve d . —P resent-- L or d CAMPBELL, Chief Baron PoLLocK, Mr. Baron PA.B/LE, Mr. Justice ERLE. and Mr. Justice WILLIAms ) TEE QUEEN Z . NASH Mr. H. T. COLE stated that in this case he had at tended before the Recorder, and suggested to him that the case should be amended; his Lordship had kinily attended to his request, and had amended the case, 'but he (Ur. Cole) had not received it till late last night, He had not, therefore had an opportunity of altering the case which had been laid before their Lordships. He would therefore submit that the case might stand over. Mr. HUDDLESTONE said, as the case bad been altered, it presented a different feature for consideration, and law was not, therefore, now prepared to argue it. The COURT directed that it should stand over. ARCH COURT, April 24. (Before Sir J. DoDBoN ) THE OFFICE OF THE JUDGE PROMOTED BY HODGSON AGAINST GLADSTONE. Mr. Gladstone appeared when this case was called on, and,addressing exprebsed his regret that he wasnot prepareldhe g to ju h d an e d , iu his alle ga ti on , as h e h a d been admonished to do. The allegation was of great importance in reference to the trial of the case. The documents which he had to consult and to procure, es pecially with reference to the time of his residence in the diocese of Norwich and his incumbency there, were voluminous, and he prayed to be allowed to deliver in his allegation on the next court day, Monday, May 3. Sir J. DODSON said he would so far indulge Mr. Gladstone as to give him till Thursday, April 29, to deliver his allegation, if ha would undertake to be ready then. Mr. Gladstone gave the required undertaking, and so ,he matter rests for the prt,seor. POLICE IN TEL LIGENCE. MARYLEBONE. Mr. Charles K rnble, the veteran actor, attended at this court, before &tr. Long, in pursuance of a summons obtained against him by a cabman named St}les, the amount of who:.e claim agtinst defendant was 2d. Mr. Kemblo, who looked remarkably well, took his seat by the bench. Complainant stated that on last Monday week he took up defendant in the Old Bailey, and drove him to his residence, No. 6, Albany -terrace, Regent's-park, where he alighted, and the servant who opened the door for him gave him (witness) is. 6d. as his fare. He observed that he was entitled to Is. Bd., upon which the servant went into the passage to speak to his master, and presently returned, telling him (complainant) that he would have no more. Complainant added, that having ascertained the name of his fare, be wont away, and shortly after wards spoke to some cabmen upon an adjacent rank, and he felt bound in justice to himself to take out a sum mons; the distance fur which he claimed was two miles and a quarter. Thomas Chamberlain, Mr. Kemblo's servant, deposed that complainant made a positive demand of 25.; had he mentioned that his fare was lg. Bd., the extra 2d. would in a moment have been paid to him. Mr. LONG felt satisfied from what he had heard that complainant would, if he 'awl demanded his proper faro only, readily hare had the same paid to him, and or dered that he should receive the 2d. which he sued for but he would not under the circumstances be allowed any costs, either as regarded what be had paid for the summons or for his attendance. tenAltior.n to Kem th b e cle,att, quittederthan thankingcourt. the magistrate for his at- LAM Mrs. Elizabeth i:infield, BET H. a singular-looking old woman, who shut five years ago acquired considerable notoriety by her commitment from thii court on a charge of wilful mu r d er, iu having caused the desth of a re spectable young woman, by using instruments to cause abortion, but who wa s acquitted at the Old Bailey, ap plied to the H on. G. C. Norton for protection against a young man, whom she had brought up from infancy-, and wham she had always treated as her son, The ap plicant said that t h e young man had been for some tim e subject to fits, and had also a violent attack of cholera, and both bal so impaired his mind that he had on more than one occasion attempted suicide. Latterly, however, his malady had taken a different turn, and ho now de clared that nothing but her blood would satisfy him.

On that ua , ruin; he locked her out of her house, and from the viol2nce of his manner she very much feared that if he caught her alone ho would carry out his threats, and murder Mr. NORTON—Is this the same young man who some time rgo had been charged wita you at this court?— Mrs Liefie/d—Yes, Sir, the same. Me. NORTON—Ik I mi , Atke uot, there Was some mys tery c3caeoted with his h:5;;;:y. Have you any objec tion to state what it was? Mrs. I, nfield—Not all all, Sir. The f,ets are that I had been called in to attend a female in her confinement, and it was the intention of the mother• to have thrown the child into the canal, and no clothes were provided for it. It was such a fine child that I undertook to bring him up as my own. I ac cordingly to, t him, and sent him to nurse, but, after some years, the mother found out where he was, and took away the poor child. Instead of taking care of the little fellow, she nearly starved the poor boy, and for this I had her punished at the :Union•hall Police-court, and have not since seen her. The real name of the boy is DAvis, but he has always gone by the name of William Lin&ld. Mr. NollToN thought the case was one which the officers of the parish of Newington ehnuld take cogni 'A once of, and have the young man taken proper care of, and directed Lockyer, one of the summoning officers, to accompany the applicant to Newington Workhouse, and request one of the relieving officers to attend to it. COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. On Thursday a court was held for the dispatch of business. THE NEW CORPORATION BILL. Alderman SIDNEY rose to call the attention of the court to what he considered to be a breach of one of the most important of the privileges of the corporation. It was well known that the new municipal Bill, which it was agreed upon all sides was calculated to operate beneficially for the citizens of London, had been in • troduced to Parliament, after having undergone the most grave deliberation and discussion, had passed through certain stages in the House of Commons without opposition, but had been suddenly ad journed from the 6th to the 29th instant.—(Hear, hear.) For that postponement, which looked very much like the result of a confederacy between the clerks of the companies, to which some of the clauses referred, and those to whom the office of superintending the passing of the Bill was committed, no cause was assigned; but he considered that such a delay was likely to be fatal to the measure during the present session—an event which would be greatly to be deplored. Ho thought the corporation ought to defend their own course of proceeding in the most determined manner. They had, after haviug re-argued the clauses afr.cting the City companies, resolved to prosecute the bill in its entire condition, and referred it to the freedoms committee, with perfectly intelligible directions. In the House of Commons Selection Committee, of which Mr. Bernal was chairman, however, ho found that the long postponement had taken place notwithstanding the anxiety so unequi vocally expressed that the necessary measure should, as soon as possinle, become the law of the land. As u member of the Corporation, and of the House of Com mons, he considered it to he his duty to write to Mr. Bernal upon the occasion, and the following was the answer he had received from that gentleman : " 93, Eaton-square, April 12. TJy dear Alderman Sioney,—l am not able to give you the information you wish for. I am not aware of the cause of the postponement of the London Corpora. tion Bill. When I sat lately in my tribunal the party in charge of the Bill mentioned that he was not ready to proceed, and he applied for and obtained a postpone ment as a matter of course.—Believe me yours very truly, " R. BERNAL." Ho then wrote to the City Remembrancer, who had the charge of the bill, on the subject, stating his apprehen sion that the delay would be, in all probability, fatal to the accomplishment of the great object of the corpora tion in the present session of Parliament. To that com munication he received ihe following reply : " Guildhall, 13th April, 1852. _ " My dear Sir,—ln eons, quence of the Court of Com mon. Council not having determined upon the form of the bill until the 2d instant, I was unable to settle the bill with Lord Redesdale by the 6th instant, and It was in consequence postponed. I particulary request‘d Mr. Bernal to fix the earliest day he could after the Easter rece.s for the committee on the bill, which I have no doubt he has done. " If Parliament continue long enough to pass the ge. neral private business, I see no reason why the Corp°. ration Bill should not pass.—l am, dear sir, yours truly " E. TYRRELL. _ _ " Mr. Alderman Sidney." He subsequently wrote again to the Rembrancer, repre senting that there was a mistake as to the actual condition of the Bill, the principle of which had been a,treed upon in aoeber, and had never been disturbed since, notwithstanding the efforts made to esicluae the companies from its operation. It however up peered teat the proceedings of the court were to be disregarded; and ho had been just informed that it would be an act of policy to give the exemption to the companies, in order to secure the success of au important measure, the most imetortayt part of which tended to the diminution of the power winch those companies had usurped.—(Hear, hear.) He had given notice of a mo Slim upon the subject to the Town Clerk, but that officer had not complied with his request to place the motion upon the paper of business. Now he would seriously ask the court whether they would surrender their Bill in consequence of the machinations of what he might a little c,nspiracy within doors? whether they would al low their proceedings, calculated as these proceedings were, to extend to their fellow citizens generally the right to vote for the highest municipal offices, to be tam pered with and rendered of no avail?—(Hear, hear.) Alderman Sidney concluded by moving the following re solution : " That this court having been informed that the Corporation Election Bill has been introduced into Parliament, and was on the 15th of March last read a second time in the House of Commons, and committed and referred to the Committee of Selection without op position; that the time fixed for its further consideration by that Committee was the 6th of April, but at the express instigation of Mr. Remembrancer was post. poned, and is now fixed for the 29th instant; that this delay iu the consideration of the Bill endangers its pass ing through Parliament during the present session, and thereby defeats the intention of this honourable court iu seeking to rectity the acknowledtghe conductedevilsof o th i e present state of the municipality; that membrancer, as the Parliamentary officer of the corpo• t h e passing of this mea s u re i nto a raft n, in delaying law, is unauthorised, and is in contravention to the de cisions of this court." (Strong expressions of disapprobation, and lo u d cries of " Wi t hdraw, withdraw.") Mr. BENNOCU seconded the resolution. The TOWN -CLERK—The principle upon which I acted in not mut i ng Alderman Sidney's notice of mot i on upon the paperr of business is that upon which it h as b een the invariable practice of the Court to act. The question w as a question of privilege, which, by right, tak es pre cedence of all o ther matters, a n d w i thout any notice vithatever, and if I had placed the notice upo n t h e paper of business, such act would have been an unwarrantable interference with the rule and practice,._(Hear, hear.) The R EBIENBRANcER described, in a manner which called forth the loud and unanimous approbation of the Court, the whole of the proceedings adopted by him for the purpose of facilitating the pro gress o f t h e mew s ure in Parliament. He show e d t h at he had acted, .not hastily nor negligently, but deliberately, cautiowly, L ed energetically, in the performance of his duty; that t ile delay which had taken place was unavoid.ble, and t ie at everything had been dune to carry out the inlets- L oa's of the Court—an object which could not be accom pi i 4 b e d without a very close and judicious attention to t h e , ~everal stages of the bill; 1 iii. ANDERTUN said it was quite evident that the re geo,l on upon the conduct of the Reasembrancer was quite an e ,tror, and Mr. Alderman Sidney would not hesitate to wi tOdraw that part at least of his motion.—(Cheers.) Alt,4 Than SIDNEY nodded assent. Mr. WILLIAM JONES said if the complaint bad been made 1,3' any one except a member of Parliament he would look upon it as being too ridiculous to be noticed. ---(Lou I laughter.) He was quite satisfied that the Rernemi arancer had acted upon the important occasion with the judgment which that gentleman never failed to exhibit i is the performance of his duties, and he believed that in Parliamentary proceedings of the nature to which chi fir Attention had been drawn, policy was the better part of valour.—(Hear.) Mr. G ODSON said he thought the delay which had taken place, would be of advantage to the Bill, which would, no doubt, come out of Parliament somewhat alter, d in a Nape and condition. Mr. R. 'AYLOR said he saw from the Remembrancer's statement tl sat the Bill had been taken to Lord Bodes dale, and hi wished to know why that course had been pursued, id en the Bill had not as yet passed the Com mons. The RE3IB MBRANCER said it was the invariable prac tioe of Paris smentary agents to apply to have Bills settled in the A 'louse of Lards before the passing of such Bills in the IYouse of Commons. Mr. STAci :said it was obvious that the Remem brancer had ac, 'cd by the direction of the committee, that there was a difference of opinion between the Court and the committi ',O, and if the Court attached blame to the Remembrance T for the act of the committee, it would have been more n asonablo not to have appointed a com mittee at all.—(H , tar, hear.) Mr. HENRY BLA Ka said the fault lay with the QOM mittee, whose duty it was to advocate the Bill in its in tegrity; instead of doing which, they had taken out its essence. Mr. Deputy Bow ER pleaded guilty to the charge o f having agitatiA the necessity of altering the Bill to meet the difficulties wb ich presented themselvesile,i'llieatrhe) threatened oppositio in of the companies.—(float, Ile was convinced t hat the corporation wo u ld, b ac k e d . by such a power as the new Bill would give them, b• soon enabled to car ry the clauses whicri lay in thew; of it 4 success. _ _ _ Mr. b. PHILLIPS anti Mr. TOWSE approved of the whole proceedings Pf the itemeinhrancer upon the Bill, and look,cl to the e 1 - nt with confidence. ' Mr. Deputy Flat tstisoN defended the committee from the attack which Ell considered Alderman Sidney bad made upon thew, thi'ough the medium of the insinuatioss against the Remert ;brancer, and moved as an amend ment that the expl.el cation of that officer was most satis tactory.—(ll.ar, 'not ) Mr. Deputy S. rEv ENS seconded the amendment. Alderman Sr ONEY said he had sought several oppor tunities of with drawing his motion, but :su ch had been the excited st a t e o f the court t h at h a could not make himself under& .00d. There wc.3 some objection to the o ff,'. of Alderman Sidney to wi s h d raw t h e reso lution, but ultimately the court agreed to a motion to that effect. NEW STREET FROM EARL-STREET TO CANNON-STREET WEST. Mr. I'. H.

Sir,—According to your report of the Bishop of Cashhl's speech in the House cf l,rds, on Tue.day night, he states (quoting the Quarterly Review) that there are 3 000,000 souls, born in Ireland, now in the United States. According to Parliamentary returns, commencing 1826 and ending 1850, it appears there emigrated from Great Britain and Ireland, to The States Canada, &c. ... 1,483,325 ... 841,7u[ 2 324,026 Previous to 1826,1 believe, there was scsre , ly uny emi gration from Ireland to America; consequently the num ber of Irish, natives of Ireland, now living in the States, who wont previous to 1826, must be a mere fraction. Suppose we nay that of the 2 324,026 one-third are British, and this will be within the mark ; this will make the Irish emigration amount to 1.549,351. But of thi We must take tnat portion of Irish settling in the Bri dab colonies, am. , un , inv, to not less than 250,000, and also the deaths of all Irish emigrants since 1826, which cannot be less than 250,000. Thus we have, in round numbers, at tho clut.o of 1850, total number of Irish emigrants— Ser tl« d in America.. De4d since 1826 .. ... 1,549,351 ... 250,000 Settled in Canada, &c. 1,299 351 ... 250 000 Natives of Ireland now living in the States ... 1,049 351 And as I believe about 200,000 Irish went to the Sates last year, i; appears tnat instead of 3 000 : 000 natives of Irelann in the States, there is no! 14 million ; and instead of 7 millioes of inhabitants of Irish blood, there are considerably I. ss than 3 ; 000 000. lam sur prised that these " Irish" exaggerations sh, , uld not have seen sifted and contradicted b) some of the Noble Pre late's hearers.--I am, sir, your obedient servant, A CONSTANT READER. Royston, West Yorkshire, April 22. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. CORNWALL. A special meeting of this company wits held at Truro on Wednesday, Mr. W. Williams in the chair. The Secretary then read the report, The CHAIRMAN. in m.,viog the adoption of the report, said be had nu doubt that the railway could now b, s4tely proceeded with, provided the ccnapany were fairly supported by the labdowners. The directors were perfectly satit,fied that ihe line could be con structed I. r a sum within the estimates. Uoless he could see his way perfectly clear to the accomplish ment of the object they had in view, he would not pro ceed with it. tie made up his mind not to be in strumental in involving either the shareholders 'r the dtrectori, or the public at large, in a railway project that could not carried out and c millet d. Sir C. LEMON, Bart., M.P., seconded the motion, which was puc and carried. Mr. G. SMITH ent,-red into a long statement to show that the Cornwall line could be completed and opened for traffic at, a cost to he company of lose than 1,000,0001. He said that the West Cornwall Railway had con structed thirteen miles of railway Iv a cost of under 6,000/. a mile, and the p , )rtion of the latter company's line from Redru , h to Truro, which was similar to that of the intended Cornwall Railway, would 'be completed for less than 6.000/. a mile. From an estimate of tbe traffic that had been carefully made it appeared that the net revenue on the Cornwall line would amount to 58,000kper annum, being equal to a dividend a 54 per cent. on the outlay. A long discussion ensued on the merits of the under taking and the possibility of completing it within the o.tiwute, in which Mr. I'. J. Robarts, M.P., Mr. H. 0. Wills, Mr. B. B. Fox, Mr. J. Allen, Mr. Darke, and other proprietors took part. Resolutions were passed approving of the proposal to allow the shareholders, on or before the 10th of May, to reduce the number of their shares to the extent of one-fourth of the shares now registered in their names provided the call now made shall be paid on the other three-fourths; autholizlng the directors to accept a for• feiture of such shar•-s, and to re•is,uw the same on such terms as they shall consider expedient; and that s teps be taken to in s u re t h e ear li est p ract i ca bl e r e sumption of the works.
