A direct communication between the metropolis and the en . trance of the Thames, where a safe and commodious tide-dock, ac tessible at all times of tide, May be constructed for steam-vessels, ' Whether bound to foreign ports, c:astwise, or to the watering . Places on the opposite shores of the coast of Kent, with a landing- Place for fish, at an hour's distance from the market of London, is desideratum attainable 'only by means of a Railway. From a caieful survey it has been ascertainedthat Shell Haven (proposed to be called Thames Haven) offers such a situation, with a depth of Water sufficient for the largest ships, and presenting advantages for the construction of docks not to be found in any other part of the river. As the inelinations of the Railway will tie peculiarly favour ;, it has been calculated that coals may be brought into London k considerable diminution of the present prices. It is proposed that the Company should avail themselves of the 'astern Counties Railway as far as Romford, from thence the Thame s Haven Railway ev ill proceed through a rich and highly cultivated country, within an easy distance of Southend, and the fertile hundred of Romford to its terminus, but no change of con veyance will be required from London to Shell Haven. Althogh the extent of the probable income cannot be stated With acc u uracy, the basis of the calculation is sufficient to justify the conclusion that it will be large and liberal, as will be seen by consi dering. that the returns will be derived : 1 . From the conveyance of Passengers to and from all parts of the Line, exclusive of steam-boat passengers. 2. F rom t h e conveyance of Goods and Parcels. 3. From the conveyance of Agricultural Supplies, meat, and ge nerally the produce of the country, in all the varieties required by t he great market of London, and of the supplies required in return. 4. From the conveyance of Fish to the London market. 5 . From the conveyance of Passengers to and from steam-boats, . a distance of 26 miles by land, in little more than one hour, at a moderate charge ; the distance by water being 35 miles ; And, eventually, from the carriage of Coals, particularly for the consumption of the metropolis. The annual number of Passengers to and passing Gravesend by , c _ t eam-vessels, being calculated at 1,700,000, of whom about nalfone proceed below Gravesend. This calculation is entirely exclu sive of the Scotch, Irish, and Foreign Steam-boats, and it may be fairly considered that the advantages which this station will offer to ttlem of perfect security under any weather, and at any period of tn e tide, as well as the facilities of landing their passengers and g n °{ l s, will be speedily appreciated, and consequently may rea sonably contemplated as a source of great revenue to the undertaking. A Railway, as projected from Herne Bay by Canterbur to "-Rfer, would complete the chain of communication by steam- P O wer between London and those places by a direct route, and Haven completed, cannot but add materially to the use of the Thames "asen Railway. It is intended to make application to Parliament for an Act of In corporation in the ensuing Session, the requisite notices having been given, and the Plan, Section, and Book of Reference lodged 'with the proper authorities. The Provisional Committee will now Proceed forthwith in the appropriation of Shares. All measures deemed necessary preparatory and previous to the ,Passing 'of the Act, will be conducted by the Provisional Com - ,„ "ttee, who are to have the control and disposition of the fund con stituted by the deposits. a Applications for Shares to be made (if by letter, post paid) to ele , srs.

GLOUCESTERSHIRE, NEAR THE FOREST OF . DEAN. TO BE SOLD, BY PRIVATE CONTRACT, - . THE very valuable and beautiful FREEHOLD ESTATE of HIGH MEADOW This property comprises the site of the residence of the Noble family of Gage, a site which commands one of the most extensive and celebrated prospects in the district, and descends thence, in the windings of a lovely and well wooded valley, to the village of Redbrook, upon the river Wye. It is situated in the parishes of Newland and Stanton ; one mile from Coleford, four from Monmouth, twelve from Chepstow, and only twenty-two from Gloucester. This Estate affords a very eligible investment, while, at the same time, it presents two or three de lightful spots for the site of a villa residence, being pleasantly si tuated in a very salubrious as well as very picturesque country, with every facility of communication and carriage, terminating, indeed, at a short distance from the banks of the Wye, where it is naviga ble. The views on the banks of that river require no other des cription than that, in the immediate neighbourhood, they compre hend Tintern Abbey, Pincefield, and Chepstow ; but it may be added, that the new and excellent road which now connects these objects, is in the whole line, one of the most picturesque in the Kingdom. The property comprises the capital farms of High Mea dow and Cherry Orchard, Redbrook (Higher and Lower), Grist Mills, and the newly-erected Lime Kilns at Bellsgrove ; containing in the whole 393 a. In. 2.0 p. of fine red loamy soil, in arablt, mea dow, pasture, and wood land, excellent Farm-houses, and suitable agricultural buildings, all in good repair. The lands lie compact, are well enclosed, and sheltered by the thriving plantations belong ing to the Crown, and are situated close to Lime and Coal, and to the best Markets in the Kingdom for the sale of produce.

ANADIAN and PATENT BRANDIES.— Whatever pretensions the grasping monopolist or his servile agents may arrogate to themselves, we undertake to supply the finest CANADIAN BRANDY ever imported into this country, twenty per cent. stronger than the confessedly impure spirit which our envious rivalsare offering at a price, in itself, calculated to excite the suspicion of every considerate person. For Punch or Toddy our STRONG CANADIAN BRANDY at 20s. per gallon, or 3s. 9d. the bottle, is peculiarly adapted; but where excessive strength is not an object, we can offer a really good article at 3s. the bottle, or 16s. per Imperial gallon. This Canadian Brandy is not introd uce d as a substitute f o r COGNAC; neither is it intended to supersede our IMPROVED PA TENT BRANDY, the merits of which are too well known to require the fictitious application of testimonials, purchased seven years ago at twenty guineas each, and referring, in fact to a spirit no longer in existence. On the contrary, those who have expe rienced the fallacy of such deceptive allurements, need only to make trial of •ur Brandy to satisfy themselves of its decided superiority to the article ludicrously as ostentatiously pronounced "the only known pure spirit in the world !" BRETT'S IMPROVED PATENT BRANDY may be bad in sealed bottles, 3s. 6d. each, 40s. per dozen, or 18s. per imperial gallon, en application to HENRY BRETT and Co., No. 139, Holborn Bars.

Opinion of the Editor of the Albion, 12th Sept., 1835:—. We have witnessed that Grimstone's Eye Snuff' has justly excited such notice in almost every quarter of the globe, as to induce Don G.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff against the defendant to recover damages for criminal conversation with the plaintiff's wife. The damages were laid at 3,0001. Mr. PHILLIPS stated the case. Mr. Hodges, the plaintif, was an eminent insurance-broker, residing in Bolton -street, Piccadilly. He was married to his wife, the lady who had fallen the victim of Mr. Walsh's misplaced, ill-advised, and ungoverned affection, in 1818. They were married with the consent of the near relatives on both sides, and lived on terms of mutual love and affection. Mr. Walsh, who is in the dawn of life, had been at the Bar four on five years. He - was introduced to Mr. and Mrs. Hodges about seven years ago, at the house of Mr. Lane, a friend of the family. Mr. and Mrs. Lane had opportunities of observing the terms upon which Mr. and Mrs. Hodges lived, and the Jury would find they were such terms upon which a man and wife ought to live. From 1818 to a very late period the slightest suspi cion never glanced across Mr. Hodges' mind of the purity of his wife. She was handsome, amiable, and accomplished, and, at that time, in the enjoyment of youth, but happily for her and her husband they had no children. They were in the habit of making excursions to various parts of the Continent, and, painful as it might appear, Mr. Walsh, on those occasions, generally accompanied them ; in fact, Mr. Walsh was upon such terms of intimacy with Mr. Hodges that they had no company at home, nor engaged iu any parties of pleasure, in which Mr. Walsh did not accom pany them. The fact of adultery, lie believed, was not denied. Mr. Charles Heathcoat Taturn, of Elizabeth-street, Hans-place, Chelsea, architect, knew Mr. and Mrs. Hodges intimately. He was present at their marriage in 1818, and bad been intimate with them since. They always appeared to him to live as man and wife ought to live, in perfect har mony. He appeared attached to her, and she to him. He believed the marriage took place with the consent of her family. Mr. Richard James Lane, of 25, South-bank, Regent's Park, married Mr. Hodges's sister, and had been in the habit of visiting constantly at Mr. Hodges's house more than ten years. Mrs. Hodges was about thirty-three or thirty-four, and handsome. Mr. and Mrs. Hodges and Mr. Walsh met abroad, but they afterwards met at wit ness's house, and the re-introduction then took place. Mr. Walsh was a constant visitor at Mr. Hodges's house, and he was received with unbounded confidence. Mr. Francis Neate Walsh, cousin to the defendant, said the defendant's property produced a trifle under 2001. a year. He did not in that include the defendant's profes sional income. He always understood the defendant to be a gentleman of considerable talent. He had been at the Bar about five or six years. Mr. CLARKSON, on the part of the defendant, said the Jury had heard that the defendant had been acquainted with Mr. and Mrs. Hodges some years. Mrs. Hodges was a young woman of great personal attractions, and she was in the habit of going to places abroad with her husband, and accompanied by his poor friend Mr. Walsh. He (Mr. Clarkson) wished for Mr. Hodges's sake it had been other wise, and he wished Mr. Walsh had seen, before it was too late, the consequence of associating with a beautiful young woman. His client was a young man with an in come of 2001. a year ; his profession lost, and out of that income he had to support himself, to meet other engage ments that might occur, and to pay the consequences of the decision which the Jury might pronounce against him. He (Mr. Clarkson) could not justify him ; he had been guilty of an offence, and he had subjected himself to such a de gree of damages as the Jury might think he ought to pay. One of the witnesses had stated that Mrs. Hodges was now thirty-three years of age, and was married in 1818, consequently she must have been married seventeen years. Mr. PHILLIPS observed that Mrs. Hodges was only 16 when she was married. Mr. CLARKSON had it in charge from Mr. Walsh to as sure the Jury that up to the time that this ill-fated Lady was placed in his hands, no criminality had passed between them. Up to the time Mr. and Mrs. Hodges separated no criminality had taken place. What was the case ? The defendant, a young man, Just entering into life, became ac quainted with the plaintiff and his wife on the Continent. How long they lived there together he did not know, but the Jury had heard that a re-introduction took place on their return to this country. That acquaintance was con tinued, and the defendant accompanied the plaintiff and his wife on their Continental excursions. He thought it was a little unguarded in the plaintiff taking this unmarried man into his family, and the result had been that the plaintiff's wife had g one to reside with the defendant. Mr. Under-Sheriff BURCHELL was proceeding to sum up the case to the Jury, when one. of the Jury inquired the age of the plaintiff ? Mr. CLARKSON replied that be was about thirty-four or thirty-five. The Jury, after remaining in consultation about half an hour, returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 1,200/. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARYLEBONE. Friday morning, information having been previously re ceived at Scotland-yard police station that a prize-fight was to take place that day at Harrow, between two well-known Westminster men, named Bryant and Wood, several police constables of the T, D, arid S divisions, were sent off at an early hour to prevent its taking place ; but finding, on arriv ing at their destination, that. they had been misinformed, and that the scene of combat was Edgebury Common, Edgeware, they proceeded thither, and arrived about twelve o'clock, just at the moment when the winner was pro claimed. Thby, however, entered the ring, when they were attacked, and beat about in a most dreadful manner, and it was not till after a desperate struggle, and several of the constables had been severely injured, that the combatants and fifteen others, were secured, and conveyed to the sta tion-house. In the evening they were brought to this office, when nine of them were discharged with a caution, five of them, including the principals, held to bail, and the three others, named Parsons, Bevan, and Chester, who were re cognized as the ringleaders of the assault on the police, were ordered to be detained till the next day. Accord ingly, yesterday, at one o'clock, the three prisoners, who had been confined at the station-house, were brought up from . thence, and placed at the bar, before Messrs. SHUTT and Hosmics, when the following evidence was given against them : Police constable Walker, T 173, whose head was covered with adhesive plaster on the wounds he had received, stated that he and the other constables of the T division were the first to arrive at the scene of action, and found that a twenty-four foot roped-ring had been formed, and that Chester was engaged with a large whip in keeping the spectators from pressing it in. lie saw the pugilists getting into coaches to leave the spot, and, having called to ha brother officers to secure them, he jumped into the ring and went Up to Chester, who ran away. He followed him, when the prisober Brown came up to him and struck him a ter rific blow on the crown of the head with a thick knobby stick and knocked him down, the blood flowing from the wound he had received. While down the prisoner Parsons struck him violently with a stick, and Chester kicked him severely in the ribs. At length the prisoners were secured, and he was removed to a surgeon's, where his wounds were dressed. . Police constable Pringham, T 137, confirmed the pre ceding testimony. In reply to the charge, Parsons and Brown denied what had been stated against them, and Chester said he was drunk at the time mentloned, and had no recollection of what had occurred. The Magistrates, after commenting in severe terms on their wanton and outrageous conduct, and the disgraceful practice of prize-fighting, ordered them each to pay a fine of 31_, and in delimit committed them to three months' im prisonment and hard labour in the House of Correction.

It appeared that Messrs. Ridgway recently discovered they had been robbed of books to a large extent; and im mediately on an inquiry being set on foot, the prisoner, who was in their employ, rag.;ortt of the house without coat or hat, and eluded captufe until Thursday evening, when he was taken into custody by the officers of this establishment. Mr. II umphrieS who-attended for Mr. Ridgway, requested that the two booksellers might be kept in custody until - the neat day, when the case would be fully gone into before : the Magistrate who heard the first part of the charge. • The solicitors, on behalf of the booksellers, begged fiat bail might be taken for their appearance, as it would be a very serious injury to -the characters of two., respectable tradesmen if they were locked up. • - Mr. Ridgway having signified 'his intention of not oppos ing the application for bail, Mr.CONANT remanded the pri soner Holland, and ordered the others to find sureties for their future appearance. • Two men, named Oakley and Milton, were charged with baying been found carrying each a large placard, with the words " An Enl arge d Di s p a l c h nex t Sunday" on them. This by a clause in a local Act, relating to St., James's parish, is an offence which both •the defendants pleaded jg no!'ance of. It was, however, proved that Bilton had been warned and had not attended to it. • The Magistrate, therefore, fined Blon and dis charged the other. LAMBETH. STREET. Yesterday, Susannah Blake, a middle-aged female, who has been in custody for the last week on a charge of having made a most desperate attempt to murder her mistress, Miss M. Scott, a lady of considerable propertv, residing on Stepney Green, was brought before :Messrs. *ARTON and NORTON for final examination. Miss Scott, who bore several marks of the prisoner's violent attack upon her, stated that on the evening of Thursday week she went to hear a lecture at the chapel of the Rev. Mr. Fletcher, leaving the prisoner at home. On her return, shortly after eight o'clock, she proceeded to the kitchen, and asked the prisoner how she had got on with her work, she being making some caps. The prisoner held the cap up to show her, upon which she (Miss Scott) ob served that she would not go to bed so early as usual on Chet-sigittomi would sit down and do some of the needle work. She accordingly sat down and commenced working. The prisoner asked if she was to do any more, and she (witness) replied she might if she liked. The prisoner at the moment got up from her seat, went towards the dresser, and, in an instant, she felt her pulling her by the hair of her head backwards, and she• then dashed a carving knife which she held in her other hand into her mouth. Wit ness screamed out " murder " several times, and how she reached the street door she did not know, but she recol lected having unbolted it, and some person forcing it open and coming to her assistance. Mr. WALKER—Can you account in any way for the prisoner's attack upon you ? Miss Scott—Not at all, Sir, except madness. The prisoner has conducted herself in a very strange manner for upwards of a twelvemonth, and I had been frequently advised by my friends to get rid of her lest she should attack and murder me ; but I never supposed for a moment that she could entertain such a thought towards me, and, believing that her delusions and eccentricity of manner were perfectly harmless, this, toge ther with her having been nearly twelve years in our ser vice, induced me to treat their advice with indifference, and retain her. Mr. Laux, a cooper, of Stepney-green, on the night in question, shortly after eight o'clock; heard loud screams of "murder," and on going to the house of Miss Scott, from whence they proceeded, he found the door partially open, and could see Miss Scott endeavouring to pull it open, and the prisoner in the act of dragging her from it into the passage by the hair of the head. Witness put his foot between the threshold and the door, and, by great exer tion, forced it open. On entering the passage, he found Miss Scott covered with blood and the prisoner still drag ging her by the hair. After some difficulty he extricated the prosecutrix from the prisoner's grasp, and the latter was taken by a policeman to the station-house. Inspector Ham, on examining three large trunks be longing to the prisoner, found in them a great variety of property belonging to the prosecutrix—such as tea, sugar, coffee, candles, &c. He also found a largo rattle and a new tinder-box, containing a large quantity of tinder, which had evidently been recently made, and which was not neces sary for the use of the house, as there was another tinder box. He had also found the following extraordinary docu ment, which the prisoner admitted was in her own hand writing, and which was carefully folded up in a piece of paper, on the outside of which was written the word Anecdote :" " Mr. Chant, senior, stockbroker, of the. letter S.—Please to pay Susannah Blake, or more generally known as the daughter of Zion,_the interest of her ladyship's property, Mrs. E. Scott, lately received by Miss Mildred Scott; also the in terest of her Ladyship Mrs. Georgiana Gagen's property, which is a portion of the above-named property ; but if it is not divided in the bank books I must trust to your honour and ho nesty to deliver to me the interest of the whole, for I am not furnished with an account of the exact sum. I, therefore, be seech you to deal fairly with me, by paying into my hands the same sum that was lately received by Miss Mildred Scott, for I am authorised thus to plead for it by the free will and com mand of my Lord, Mr. George Reader Gegen, who is the only surviving son, by the union of marriage, of her Ladyship, Mrs. Elizabeth Scott; but if this account is not believed by the Gentleman who is the stockbroker, I am wining to wait until7a Messenger is sent to - My own residence, No. 5, Cross.:row, Stepney-green, Mile-End Old Town, and also my Lord:s residence, that himself and family now occupy, No. 11, Row laud's-row, Stepney-green, Mile-End Old Town, thus to prove that I am in very deed the same person whom my Lord bath, with the joint consent of his Lady, Mrs. Geor giana Gagen, been graciously pleased to give me the power, first to pay into his Lady's hands her own private property, and the remainder for my own. use. I have, therefore, pre sented my own person, and as a witness to my Lord's word, " SUSANNAH BLAKE." Mr. G. R. Gagen, the brother-in-law of Miss Scott, in explanation of the above extraordinary document, said that Mr. Chant was the stockbroker, who generally managed the property left to Miss Scott and her sister, Mr. Gagen's wife, by their late mother, and the prisoner's object, no doubt, was to get possession of it in case she had succeeded in her diabolical project. There were one or two circum stances connected with the case which went a great way to prove the prisoners dreadful intention. The first was, that at the time of the murder of the Mars in Wapping, some years ago, and which excited considerable alarm in the minds of many families, particularly at that part of the town, Miss Scott had provided herself with the rattles now produced, and placed them in a small closet in hei' chamber, close to her bedside, to give an alarm in case of any attack being made upon her. These the prisoner had removed and locked them up in her box, where they had been found by the officer, no doubt to prevent her mis tress giving any alarm in the event of the prisoner attack ing 'her. Another circumstance was, that the prisoner had' some time ago carried up and heaped alarge quantity of wood in the upper rooms ; but this being perceived she Was obliged to take it down again. Mr. - ALKER—Then do you think it was her intention. to set fire to the hoUse after she had committed the murder?- Mr. Gagen—lt is of course impossible for me to state po sitively ; but it certainly looks very suspicions. sorer could give no satisfactory reason for taking the wood , there. In reply to a question from Mr. WALKER, Mr. Gagen ; said the prisoner was generally in. the habit of addressing • him " My Lord," and her mistress, " My Lady." The prisoner could not account for the attack, and thA it was quite - accidental. She begged her mistress would forgive her, and, thinking the suffering she had already en dured sufficient for her offence, addressing the Magistrates, she said, " I hope, my Lords, you will remember mercy in the midst of judgment." The MAGIsTRATEs were of opinion that the prisoner Lad a long time meditated the act of murdering her tois- • tress ; but had fortunately attempted it at the wrong time to succeed in her purpose. They accordingly committed her :to Newgate to take her trial for the capital offence Of ' assaulting with intent to murder.

A considerable piece of a ten foot garden wall was carried off by the same stream in rather a singular manner. At a spot near Causevside, where the burn winds round the garden in question, the water got into the garden at the upper side, and after accumulating to a depth of from three to four feet, its pressure was so greet that it carried several yards of the wall fairly across the, burn, and so completely was the breach made in mass that had the shock of the •wall against the opposite banknOt: broken off that part of it above the bank of the stream,' r would have stood entire about four or five feet from its former position.—Ayr Observer. _ Sixth Edition, price Is. 6d. bound, IFIHE ANTI-SPELLING BOOK.
