More exalted than mere passion, it sears high above every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice, but more engrossing even than ambition. No man is exempt from its intuence, er can avoid its sway; and business, pleasure, philo sophy, and divinity itself become neglected under the enthralling power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage. When union does not take place, however, this passion, this fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly poison in the heart, which now darkens, as it before bright ened, all things upon earth. How is it that men, of most un changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life time spent in the fulfilment of every engagement, snap the very con tract asunder which should be most binding to an honourable mind? It is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early habits, or the results of secret disease, knows himself to be disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has been instituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment of important ends. The wretched condition of such a being must subsequently be beyond measure deplorable Loving and beloved, he entails the most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and upon u n n at a i l t i r o a y l e a d tt h ri a b p u p t ines es srul T d h c e ha s n ub g j e e t c h t e b sce in n te e, n an su d n y g i , eld an to d d bo ese th rv a himtelf a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of attention of all.

AMALGAMATION OF THE THREE GREAT COMPANIES. The directors of the Great Western Railway have communicated to the shareholders in that company the resolutions agreed to by the deput Ition from the three companies who propose amalgamation, viz., the Great Western, the North-Western, and the South-Western. They further state that these resolutions were approved of by the board, subject to two resolutions, one of which still forms the subject of a correspondence, and therefore may be settled. The document is annexed for the in formation of the reader. It cannot, however, concealed that the intention of the South-Western Company to complete their Rich mond and Datchet line to Windsor, and the expr , ssed determination of the Great Western to offer this course of proceeding on their part every possible opposition, is not unlikely to supersede all the arrangements that have been entered into at the present moment. The resolu tions agreed to are subjoined. GREAT WESTERN. PA DDINGTON STATION, Nov. 23, 1848.—Resolutions considered at several conferences held in London, in the months of September, October, and November, 1848, be tween deputations of the London and North-Western, the Great Western, and the London and South-Western Companies, in consequence of the unprecedented demand for additional capital, to be employed in constructing, simultaneously, many new lines of railway not imme diately or imperatively required, the prejudicial effect thereof on the commercial and manutacturing interests (as affirmed by Committees of both Houses of Parlia ment), and the serious depreciation of investments in railways thus occasioned; with a view to adopt, as well fur the sake of the public as of the proprietors, some immediate and efficacious measure for counteracting such results:- 1. That it is in the highest degree important to make arrangements for uniting the interests of the three com patdes represented at this conference, in some manner calculated hereafter to prevent, so far as they are con cerned, any wasteful expenditure either in unnecessary schemes or Parliamentary contests, while they may at the same time be enabled, by maintaining a fairly re munerative income, to provide liberally for the safety and accommodation of the public, by [means of efficient establishments under a well-organized system of manage ment. 2. That upon a careful consideration of the means calculated to attain such important public and private objects the most effectual plan seems to be that of cre ating a permanent and absolute identity of interest , among the shareholders of the three companies, under the sanction of the Legislature. 3. That as some months must now elapse before the Act of Parliament for authorising such union can be ob tained and carried into effect, it is essential that an ar rangement should be forthwith made for placing the ex penditure of the three companies under control, and for facilitating such measures as may seem conducive to the accommodation and convenience of the public in the use of stations and the working of lines connected with each other, so as best to develop traffic, without interruption, and with due regard to economy. That for these pur poses, as well as for deciding any question relating to the guarantee or lease of other lines, or the general policy of the companies, it is requisite to appoint a joint board of control, consisting of seven directors of each company, with all necessary powers—that the quorum shall consist of not less than three members of each company—that at all meetings a majority shall bind the minority, elind all absent members, the chairman having at each meeting a casting vote, and being chcsen by turns from the several companies represented. 4. That a Bill shall be introduced into Parliament in the next session for the above purposes, and that the joint board shall have the charge and control of it, and shall take such steps as they may deem proper for ob taining the sanction of the Legislature but in the event of at least five of the seven directors, representirig either company, considering any provision inserted, or proposed to be inserted, in the said Bill, inconsistent with the principles herein agreed to, or detrimental to the interests of their shareholders, it shall he referred to two referees, ono chosen by the directors of the dissentient company, and the other by the remaining members of the united board, or to an umpire, previously to be chosen by them to determine the matter in dispute. The joint board to have the power, in case of need, to renew the application to Parliament from session to session. 5. That no new pecuniary engagements, excepting in discharge of liabilities already existing, or in fulfilment of present legal objections, shall be incurred by any one of the three companies, without notice to and consent of the joint board; but full freedom of action is reserved by the South-Western Company as to their extension into Windsor, the Great Western Company protesting against such reservation, for the reasons stated in the accompanying declaration (paper A), and reserving their rights thereupon, the London and South-Western Rail way Company adding as their reply to such declaration the accompanying piper B. The joint board shall not be authorised to override any existing pecuniary engage - [ menu or liabilities of any one of the contracting corn . panies, or to compel arrangemel is for the use of sta tions, er for the working of connecting lines of railway, against the protest in writing of five out of the sever directors representing any one of the companies; it being, nevcrthi less, in the power of such directors to withdraw such protest upon arrangements being made to their satisfaction. G. That nothing in these resolutions shall be under stood to debar any one of the dm e companies, previously to the passing of the Act, from applying to Parliament for ext:n sion of time respecting any railway, the powers of makit g which are about to expire, but so that no addi tional liability shall be contracted under such tie e. Act without the consent of the joint board. 7. That the broad gauge shall be laid and maintained over the lines for which it has been authorised by Par liament, or over any lines in substitution thereof, when ever such railways may be constructed; and that no steps shall be taken, by application to Parliament or otherwise, tor relinquishing or abandoning the use of the said gauge as respects those lines, subject to the ques tion of any existing engagement to the contrary. 8. That in any united board, to be created under the Act, each of the companies shall in the first instance be equally represented in number, and such first joint board shall continue in office for a fixed term of five years from the passing of the Act; and that due provision shall be made in the Act for the local administration of the several railways. 9. In the event of any of the directors, appointed by either of the three companies, being unable from any Call3o to attend any meeting of the joint board; or, when the Act shall have passed, to attend any meeting of the first united board, the directors of such company may nominate another director for the occasion, out of their own board or committee, to attend such meeting; and such director shall have the same power at such meeting as the director in whose stead he may be nomi nated would have had. 10. That the functions of the joint board shall con tinue during the proceedings in Parliament, and for four months thereafter, when they shall cease, unless re newed by mutual consent. 11. That the principle of the Act to be obtained is for empowering the three companies, or two of them (not being the London and North-Western and London and South-Western Companies), to be united into the com pany upon terms to be consented to by general meetings of the respective proprietors, specially convened for the purposo; but no amalgamation between two companies is to be authorised to take place until after the expira tion of six months from the passing of the Act. 12. That the general meetings of the three companies shall be called for Wednesday, the 13th of December next, to consider this arrangement, and, if sanctioned, to approve the draft of the Bill to be submitted to Parliament as required by the standing orders ; and that in the meantime the solicitors give the requisite notices anal prepare such Bill. 13. That it be the duty of the chairman of this day, so soon as the draft Bill is ready, or sooner, if needful, to convene a meeting of the joint board for its conside ration, prior to the general meetings, the companies being requested to appoint in the meantime their re pective members of such joint board. London. Nov. 1, 1848. C. A. SAUNDERS, Sec. DECLARATION OF THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY REFERRED TO IN RESOLUTION No. 5, DATED OCT. 31, 1848. The London and South-Western directors having sig nified their intention to apply to Parliament in the next session for a Bill to extend their railway through the Home Park into Windsor, and to authorise a separate station in that town, without submitting it to the deci cision of the joint board already resolved upon, that step is protested against as betifg at variance with the objects and principles of the arrangement, occasioning a renewed contest in Parliament, and involving an expense preju dicial to the interest of any united company. The Great Western directors having been willing to submit every question of th e i r own to the joint bo ard, can only consent to the res e r va ti on i ns i sted upon by the London and South-Western directors, upon the declara tion that such measure must receive their uncompromis ing opposition, if att em p te d i n the next session, s being injurious, if no union shall be agreed upon, to the Great Western Company; and, on the other hand, if it shall take effect, injurious to the united company, inasmuch as the scheme will render it impracticable to join the two railways, and will necessitate permanently two dis tinct stations, and the maintenance of two separate establishments in the town of Windsor for the manage ment of that traffic. REPLY OF THE LONDON AND SOUTH-WESTERN RAIL WAY COMPANY TO THE PRECEDING DECLARATION (ALSO REFERRED TO IN THE RESOLUTION No. 5), DATED IST NOVEMBER, 1848. (B.) The London and South- Western directors, having read the paper presented by Mr. Russell at the meetiu4 of yesterday, feel themselves called upon to affirm— That they did, at the second meeting of the delegates, declare their intention to aid in the execution, or to exe , cute themselves, the extension of the line to Windsor (say about one mile and a half), and that they cannot ' and never will admit that any proposition, entertained or approved since that time, precinct, s them from taking such a course, in respect of the Windsor line, as to them shall seem fit. That they do not admit the correctness of the asser tion contained in the paper deliTered yesterday by the • rea t#estern t. emptily taa sey (the Great Western Company) have been willing to submit every question of their own - to-the joint board ; on the contrary, the Great Western Company have reserved the right of ex cluding from the decision of the joint board the ques tion of the breadth of gauge on the lines which may ultimately be constructed, as they have also the right to prevent the other two companies from amalgamating to their exclusion. On the subject of this amalgamation, Herapath's Journal says:— " We hear that Mr. Chaplin, the chairmtin of the South-Western Railway, is anything but favourable to the monster amalgamation, and has openly expressed his determination to oppose it as far as he can. He knows, he says, the worth of his present line, but can form no idea of what its fate would be if linked to others; he will, therefore, not peril it. We think he shows his good sense by so doing. There is a rumour that the North= Western Company's debenture holders intend to have a meeting, for the purpose of opposing the amalgamation. We have talked with several professional gentlemen, who all conaur in the views we first propagated, namely, that the shareholders cannot legally alter the securiti e s of the mortgagees, without first obta ining their consent and, indeed, the consent of every one."

REVIEW OF THE WORE. La'Mert en the Infirmities of Youth and Maturity.—" There aro scenes in the drama of life which are acted with no spectator but Conscience ; and of these die result is ever disastrous. Happy the mortal whe meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf into which such scenes must plunge him i In the book before us such a monitor is to be found, calculated to warn an 4 instruct the erring, without impairing one idea that can vitiate a mind not al ready tutored by the vices of which it treats. It is written in a style if masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profoundest truths of philosophy and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It!. a production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally, upon all whe are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. By nn taught innocence the book is not, of course, needed ; but wherever laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breathing in these pages is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial as the admonitions of a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine." —United Kingdom Magazine.

An extraordinary meeting of this company was held on Saturday, at Birkenhead, to take into consideration the draft of a Bill for powers to abandon part of the main line and to reduce the capital; and also to consider the several matters referred to in a memorial from the shareholders disapproving the reduction of the 311. shares. Mr. Bancroft took the chair. It was stated that conferences had recently taken place between the directors and the representatives of the me morialists, and they had agreed to the following propo sitions, viz.:—That the existing 45,000 Cheshire Junc tion shares of 31/. nominal value be cancelled, and new shares of 71. be created in lieu thereof. That in con sideration of the 104 paid on the 311. shares, sad of the loss that may be sustained by the Chester and Birkenhead shareholders by the postponement of tb• works, it shall be understood and agreed that 255. per share bas been paid on such share. That one new share shall be allotted to the holder of every 311 share upon which 101. has been paid ; and every holder who may decline to accept such new share shall be paid in money 255. per share, and cease to have any further interest in the concern. That the residue of such new shares not taken up shall be rateably divided amongst the holders of the Chester and Birkenhead shares, of the nominal value of 271. 10s. and 221. That interest at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum be paid to the Chester and Birkenhead shareholders until tbo Chester Junction line is opened. That application be made to Parliament for power to revise the capital; to limit the works from Birkenhead to Warrington or Moore; and to make-ar rangements with otheocompanies. The CHAIRMAN std that for some time it had been obvious that the line could not be made throughout in its integrity—that was, from Birkenhead to Chester and from Chester to Stockport. The amount which would be required for that purpose was 450,0001. If they were to call upon those who had paid their five calls, a capital of only 378,0004 would be raised; but he felt assured that not more than from 12,000 to 15,000 shares would be paid upon. Ti inding themselves ,in this posi tion, the directors proposed to make the line from Chester to Moore, a distance of 15 miles, and no further at present. Mr. BROWNE said, that if the proposals were adopted a valuable property would be created, in which the Cheshire Junction shareholders could share. It was stated that the extension line to the docks had cost the sum of 300,0001., which had been incurred at the instance of the Cheshire Junction Company; that 371,1821. had been paid on the Cheshire Junction shares, and 303,1121 had been expended; that 93,0001. had been expended on the works between Chester and W arriugton. A long discussion ensued, in the course of which an amendment was moved, that the money to be repaid should be 10s. instead of 255. per share; but it was eventually withdrawn, and the propositions of the di rectors were carried by a large majority; after which the meeting, which was numerously attended, separated.

DIABOLICAL ATTEMPT TO BURN A HOUSE IN THE CITY.—On Saturday forenoon last, between the hours of eleven and twelve, considerable alarm was caused in Eastcheap, City, by the sudden outbreak of two fires in the upper part of the extensive premises belonging to Messrs. Knight and Fosters, stationers, situate at No. 5, in the before-mentioned thoroughfare, and, from what has already transpired, the Fire Brigade authorities have returned both outbreaks as having been wilfully occasioned. It appears that the third floor of the building was occupied conjointly ,by a Mr. Edward Rea and Mrs. Emily Joyce, and that a female servant did the household work for both parties. On Saturday forenoon the inmates were astonished at hearing a very unusual noise is the house, and the servant was rent to learn the cause. She returned almost immediately afterwards, and exclaimed "The house is on firel" and lett the premises. The engines of the parish and London Brigade promptly attended,and on the firemen entering the third floor they tound a chest of drawers and some boxes in the back room wrapped in a body of fire. They imme diately set to work, and after some trouble they were successful in getting the names extinguished, when their attention was called to the front room by seeing smoke pouring forth from under the doorway. Having opened the door, they found another box of clothes blazing away with the greatest impetuosity; that fire having also been subdued, an examination was made to ascertain the cause, wh en M r. Braidwood saw s uite suf ficient to satisfy hi mse lf t h at they were two distinct fires, and had been wilfully caused by some malicious person. During th e d ay the servan t gir l was given into the custody of th e p o li ce, and she was forthwith locked up in Garlick-hill station-house. The damage done is thus:officially reported :—"A chest of drawers, boxes, and the contents of back room third floor burned, landing scorched, window-glass broken and ceilings under da i waged by water; a box and contents burned in front room on the same floor; two distinct fires." The ser vant girl, it appears, was going to leave her situation dming the day, and, from other circumstances 'allot] came to the knowledge of her employer', they felt justi fied in giving her into custody. WRECK 01' THE BARQUE SEMIRAMIS or GRUB- NocK.—This fine vessel, of 360 tans burden, Captain Welsh, master, was wrecked at Saltcoats on Monday morning last. She was ballast laden, bound from Lon don to Greenock, and from stress of weather attempted to put into the harbour of Saltcoats, following the wake of a small brig, the Farnham), which made the harbour before her. It was at the time blowing very hard from the south-west, and not keeping a steady course, she struck on the north side of the entrance, and then came over on to the perch at the point of the harbour on the south side, lying in a very bad position. The crew, six tee nin number, chiefly runners," were all landed safely by means of ropes swung over the end of the quay—the whole crowd of people assembled having cheered heartily when the last was taken off. The vessel was entirely broke barrel;, &e., floatingupinabo tan hour afterwards—planks, boxes. on the shore. Whit remains of her is ram off the perch, the principal portion of her lying inside of it. The Semiramis had arrived lately at London from the East Indies, with a cargo of sugar, and wt,s proee, ding to Greenock to undergo a thorough re pair. Captain Joseph Ritchie, of Saltcoats, has ben very active in saving as much of the wreck as possible. air. Campbell, innkeeper, afforded every accommodation to the sufferers that hospitality could suggest; and the Rev. John Bryce not only clothed the captain, but gave dry clothes to all the crew.—Ayr Advertiser. THE POLISH REYUGEES.—An investigation is about to be made by the Treasury, with the assistance of G. J.
