TO THE ELECTORS OF SHEFFIELD. GENTLEMEN The invitation that you hays been so kind as to send to me, requesting me to become a candidate for your suff rages at the coming Election, I at once accept —thanking yo u most sincerely for this signal and unexpected mark of your esteem and al , - Probation. I say approbation, because I thus construe your invitation. Of my political life you have taken note—and noting, have approved. You say that my past actions have been such as to win your confi dence. To those acts I must refer you, as the best and most com plete evidence of my political opinions. Eighteen years ago, when for the first time I was about to solicit the Suffrages of my country men. in the hope that they would place me in the proud position of a representative of the people, I stated at some length the principles 'which would guide my conduce upon all the great questions of policy which then occupied the attention of the-nation. To that statement I could now refer, and for the same purpose : I could refer to it, not only as an exposition of my private opinions, but as a test by which to try the consistency of my performance and my prolessions. The experience of many years has, I hope, made me wiser, and taught me the mode most conducive to the practical application of the prin ciples which I profess—but from the principles themselves I have not sported. The years that have elapsed since 1832 have indeed settled very few of the questions which at that period interested and divided the whole people. We have advanced— and are advancing—but at every step the contest of opinions is renewe,l, aneacwe t separate have almost victory has every day to re-state the arg uments I,y which h been obtained. On the gre at end leading questions of constitutional reform, though Much as been done, much remains to be accomplished. The many anomalies of our electoral system have yet to be removed —a fuller scope must be given to the popular will—and numerous classes who are now unwisely excluded must be brought within the pale of the Constitution. Every statesman who really desires here after to provide for the well-being of the people will seriously con sider the question of the suffrage, in order to bring about speedily, though cautiously, a large extension of it. sty opinion as to the best mode of taking the votes at-elections I have seen no reason to change. In order that opinion may be freely expressed, the ballot seems to me absolutely indispensable. In short, though the Reform Act was a great step in advance. still the increasing intelligence of the country demands, and will in its proper time attain, a reform of the Reform Act. Although we cannot hope to win and retain complete good govern ment itself without perfection in the means, yet we must not pos:- pone all other reforms until those of the Constitution are attained. Our endeavours may at the same time be directed to many objects, and I therefore proceed to -touch upon some which appear at the present moment of the highest importance. Though, in my opinion, a Government cannot do much directly to procure wealth and comfort for a people, it can, and - unfortunately does, do much improperly to diminish their substance, and thereby their comfort. Unnecessary expense —unmeaning, mischievous re strictions upon the industrious labours of the people, have in all ages been the-vice of Governments. But the vigilance of the popu lar leaders must now be directed to curb this evil—not only must we, then, enforce a rigid economy, but we must require that a perfectly free trade should give full scope for the active energies of an indus trious nation. Connected with thls subject In manY ways, and with the well being of mankind in many more, is the great subject of colonization. The colonies of England have been planted in spite of the mischie vous interference, and not by the aid of the Government of England. It is high time that the intelligence of herpeople should act upon our rulers, and make them directly useful in extending oar name, our language, our institutions, and the blessings of an enlightened religion, over the vast regions which nominally own our rule, but which lie useless to us and to mankind To this end, it appears to me that the whole subject of our colonies calls for a complete and immediate revision. While speaking of expense, and the impolicy and hajnatice of our conduct towards certain outlying portions of our territories, I must not forget a part of the empire itself, an integral and most important portion of the United Kingdom—l mean unfortunate Ireland. Our conduct to Ireland has been, till a few years since, one continued act of terrible injustice ; and we now wonder that the people, whom we have treated as slaves for centuries, should not have the •virtnes'and habits of free men. There is now but one course of wise policy as regards Ireland. We must establish rigid justice throughot the land. W e must suffer no party, no sect, no class to er n edomin ver any other ; and to this maintenance of pea de among heishitherto contending sons, our efforts must be confined. If we do More, we shall do serious injustice to the people of England and Scotland, and render 110 service to those of Ireland. It' we were to morrow to trimmer the whole wealth of England to Ireland, we should only create waste, idleness, and vice. A people must work out their own regeneration, and acquire wise, frugal, and virtuous habits, by leading a wise, frugal, and virtuous life. The wealth th a t is not acquired by labour is but too often squandered in ex. travagance. I have spoken above of extending over our wide and yet unsettled territories the inestimable benefits of an enlightened religion. This naturally calls my attention to the situation of religion among our selves, both as regards doctrines and establishments. lam myself a member of the Church of England. I was ein• cated as a member of the Established Chosen ; and after a care' ul consideration I have seen no reason to leave the fellowship of my childhood and youth. But this determination ha- been formed after consideration, and is the result of rrtS• own evil', uttc ly independent of that or any other man. What, then, I have demanded for myself —the right that I have vindicated in my own person—l d- man fo all others.. I insist upon religious as well as civil liberty. If my mind be enthralled by arbitrary will, and I of lal by the suasion of reason, I am more a slave than if you put my body in chains. While I demand for all this freedom, wit' ch I have exercise • myself, I proceed yet further. I hold every coercion on this subject impolitic, as well as unjust. You may compel to outward observance, snd to fa se declarations ; you may create hypocris , and discontent ; but at w- rd of command you cannot make men believe. With this view, therefore, I am led to deprecate, on all proper occasions, every attempt to make establishments which exist for the purpose of promoting any. pecaliar religious opinion State establish ments. In a country like ours, of complicated relations, of long established habits and opinions, I cannot expect that my opinions on such a subject should be immediately acceded to; and I am not prone to feel hurt or to take offence when 1 find men differ from me concerning it. But though we ca nnot change at once what has been long established, we can far more easily prevent new steps in a wrong direction • and, therefore, to any extension of such religious estab lishments'l shall direct unceasing opposition. Within the narrow limits of an address like the present. I cannot do more than indicate my views, and touch upon the leading opinions I hold. From this general view, however, an accurate conception can be attained by you of the political character of the ro n you have invited; and an op'portunity will, I hope. be soon afforded me of explaining, to the satisfaction of all whom the matter may in terest, my present feelings and future plans respecting our domestic policy. Any exposition, however general. which emitted a reference to our foreign relations and policy would be indeed incomplete. My belief on this subject is, that our true policy consists in abstaining from all idle intermeddling with the affairs of othe- nations. Every nation in Europe has at this time enough to occupy its attention in settling its own affairs ; and the history of Europe. from the year 1830 to the present time, when compared with tee history of Europe ftom 1793 to 1815, is the best argument which historical experience can offer in favour of leaving a people to regulate and arrange for themselves their own internal affairs. Interference in 1793 kindled the flames of war over the whole world—a war unequalled for the blood that was shed and the wealth squandered in its terrible and disastrous conflicts. Non-interference in 1870 has allowed Europe a chance of peace, and holds out to us a hope that the struggling people will, in every nation of the great European faintly, eventually attain the inestimable benefits of a well-regulated popular Govern ment. I must end, Gentlemen, as I began, by expressing to yon my hearty thanks for the honour you have conferred on me, and by placing myself at your dispose', fa' the coming election. I am ready, when it shall so pl ase you, to present inyself to your notice, and submit to all such inquiry as you may think right. Raving nothing to conceal, I have no fear of Inquiry. I beg to remain, Gentlemen, Your most obliged and faithful Servant, J. A. ROEBUCK. ARCHITECTS', BUILDERS', and 11 GENERAL FIRE AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, 69, Lombard-street, London.

BIRIIINGIIAM ' MONDAY EVENING.- This morning: the opening of the above line from this town to Burton-upon-Trent took place in the presence of a considerable number of persons. At eleven o'clock the directors held a board meeting at the Quee'n's Hotel for the transaction of ordinary business, after which they were joined by a number of friends and gentlemen interested in the undertaking, and at twelve o'clock they left the station of the London and North-Western Railway and proceeded at a steady pace to Walsall. Amongst those in the first car riages of the train were C. Foster, Esq., chairman of the company ; Mr. Chawner, deputy-chairman ; Mr. Smith, agent of Lord Ward; Mr. Potter, Mr. Charles Geach, of the Midland Bank; Captain Dyott, R. C. Green Esq., banker of Litchfield; Capta in Ma j end y , Mr. Robinson, of the London and North-Western Railway ; Mr. James Wareing, Mr. Bacon. At Walsall the party were joined by Philip Williams, Esq., ironmaster, and many other gentlemen of the neighbourhood, and, after a lapse of a few minutes, the train again set out, and in a short time reached the station at Litchfield. The day was unfortunately very unpropitious, rain having fallen through out the whole morning. A short run of six miles Ito Burton and back closed the opening trip, which, notwithstanding the unpleasant state of the weather, was witnessed along the line by , a great number of persons. The country being principally the seat of mining operations, is anything but in viting in appearance, but the works of the line appear substantial and well executed. From Walsall to Litchfield the line is nearly all on embankment, and, considering the freshness of the work and the heavy rain, there was very little oscillation in the carriages, aed the trip was carried through in the most success ful manner, under the able superintendence of Mr. J. D. Payne, the general manager of the line. The line is 25 miles in length, from the Dudley terminus to the junction with the Midland line at Alrewas., and runs through the following places :—From Bir mingham to Litchfield, Walsall, Alrewas, Burton upon-Trent, where it joins the Midland, Leicester and S wannington, and North Staffordshire Railways. This line, although comparatively short, affords very great advantages, saving, as it does, a great distance between East Worcestershire and South Staffordshire, and the counties of Derby, Nottingham and Leicester. The interesting event of the day was celebrated by a dinner at the George Hotel, Litchfield, there being present Mr. Dyott, mayor; Lord Talbot, Lord Anson, Lord Lewisham, C. Forster, Esq., Philip Williams, Esq., and about 150 gentlemen of the • neighbourhood. The dinner was of the best descrip tion, and the entertainment passed off with the utmost hilarity. The Estates may be viewed ; and particulars with plans may be had at the Auction Mart; of Mr. Simpson. solicitor, 45, Bedford row; and of Messrs. Daniel Smith and Son, Land Agents, Water loo-place, Pall-mall; and of their agent at Windsor.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. wish to call the attention of the metropo. titan public through your widely disseminated journal to an important and interesting fact. You have given a page of The Sun to a report of a public meeting convened to expose the evils of in tramural interments. I regret that I was prevented from attending that meeting. Had I been present, though I could have added nothing to the masterly reasonings of Lord Dudley Stuart and the intelligent Members of the Lower House who were present, I should have been glad of the opportunity of stating that very recently one of the aldermen of this city was interred within the walls of Christ Church, Ne wgate street, and that between the slab forming part of the floor of the sacred edifice and the upper surface of the coffin, not more than seven inches of soil intervene. I have not seen the spot, but can rely upon my in formant. In connexion with this fact, I wish to remind you that a prescribed part of the daily service of the Church is thus worded—" From plague, pestilence, and famine, good Lord deliver us." What, then, is the incongruous anomaly ? The ministers of religion, the priesthood of our Establish ment, are directed to invite crowded assemblages to meet for Divine worship over the reeking and steam ing masses of putrefying remains brought for inter ment, originally from motives of the weakest super stition, within consecrated walls, where it is presumed the enemy of souls has been exorcised and dare not enter. Immediately under the pavement lies, in this instance, the rotting carcase of a City alderman, and over the spot kneel the irrational survivors, who ask Almighty God to suspend and alter in their favour the laws of the material and physical universe. The slowly de composing mass of putridity is brought and depo sited at the very foot of the reading-desk, and with an avaricious greed of burial fees, most insultingly to the Supreme Intelligence over that spot, and while hun dreds are collected to inhale the raiasm , the officiating priest is made to pray that the natural consequences of so revolting an absurdity may be adverted. How does infidelity blush for suc h appeals to the God of truth and goodness, how contemptible is the perver sion of common sense and duty ! If considerations drawn from so profane a perver sion of the known laws which God has imposed upon ma tter will not check eit her the monstrous evil, or at l eas t expunge that p ra y er from the service of the Church, possibly there may be other motives which, appealing to tenderer emotions of the human heart, m ay ultimately abate the nuisance and consequent injury to public health. Let an Englishmen fancy the deceased and once fondly loved wife of his bosom subjected to the poking of the iron borer:—" Within 14 or 16 feet of this grave," observes Mr. Walker, " I counted 27 similar holes made through a mass of human remains, the object being to dissipate the effluvia." Benevolent aged ladies gather contribu tions for our hospitals, which mostly in later years have been got up as stepping-stones to private prac tice in favour of individuals who charitably officiate gratuitously, and clergymen write prefaces to the annual reports ; meanwhile the " borer" disengages the effluvia, clerical rapacity insults the unchanging God with inconsistent petitions, we produce evil and suffering, build fever hospitals for its alleviation ; and, as though the Infinite One were " altogether such an one as ourselves," we first impose upon our own better knowledge, and next vainly and wickedly try to impose upon Him.—l am, Sir, &c.

This same inner Ruing, o hen detached, of itself forms a most comfortable reading or dressing jacket. There are many other advantages con ained in THE NICOLL, rendering it as a garment a most valuable adjunct in a variable climate, also for travelling, &c., but it should be seen and worn to be fairly appreciated, but it can be had in Lon don only at 114, 116, 120, REGENr-STREET, and 22, CORNIIILL, and IT is perhaps unnecessary here to state that Messrs.

A GHOST IN LOVE.—The Abeille Cauchoise tells the following story:—" A few nights ago a worthy farmer, living near Yvetot, who has lately become a widower, was aroused at midnight by the loud barking of his dog. On going to it the animal displayed extreme terror, whereupon the farmer took his gun and pro ceeded to an inspection. All at once he saw a horrid phantom clothed in a white sheet, rise behind the hedge. The farmer turned deadly pale, and his limbs shook with dismay. He however contrived to ejaculate, 'lf you come from God, speak; if from the Devil, vanish !' Wretch !' exclaimed the phantom, lam your deceased wife, come from the grave to warn you not to marry Marie A—, to whom you are making love. She is unworthy to share my bed. The only woman to suc ceed me is Henriette B---. Marry her, or persecution and eternal torment shall be your doom !' This strange address from the goblin, instead of dismaying the farmer, restored his courage. lie accordingly rushed on the ghostly visitor, and stripping off its sheet, discovered the fair Henrietta B— herself, looking excessively .foolish. It is said that the farmer, admiring the girl's trick, has had the banns published for his marriage with her."

I heartily wish the Church had a worthier representative to return those thanks. Bat the Church does not rest upon its representatives or its advocates, but upon itself.—(A:oud cheers.)

I thank you very much for the compliment which you have paid to my poor efforts in support of the cause of charity this morning. I had particular pleasure in endeavouring to do so; and that not only upon general grounds, but incense your charities are extended, most of them, to persons of all creeds, and therein show the large and liberal spirit of our Church. —(Loud cheers.) And I do indeed think that a mi . - nister of the Church can never be better employed than when engaged in advocating the cause of a large, a li beral, and an enlightened charity.—(Renewed cheers.) The next toasts were "Her Majesty's Judges," to which Mr. Justice Erle replied, and " The Members of the House of Commons," which was acknowledged by Mr. Bernal. The Loan MAYOR—I am honoured to-day with the company of a Right Hon. Gentleman who has long en joyed the confidence of his Sovereign as her representa tive at a foreign Court. It is not necessary for me now to advert to the circumstances under which he has re turned to this country; it is sufficient for me to say that he comes here with his character unsullied, and that he still enjoys the respect and esteem of this great com munity. He is again about to proceed upon an impor• tent mission as the representative of her Majesty, and it affords me much gratification to have this opportunity of assuring him most cordially that he carries with him the esteem, the confidence, and the good wishes of the people of England. I have very great pleasure in proposing to you the " Health of the Right Hon. Sir Henry Lytton Bulwer."—(Cheers.) Sir HENRY BULWER replied to the toast—My Lords, ladies, and gentlemen, it is a well known maxim that the best qualification for a diplomatist is silence, and in rising at this late hour of the evening I shall exhibit that qualification by returning my thanks in the briefest possible manner, first to you, my Lord Mayor, for the honour you have done me in proposing my health in connexion with the profession to which I belong, and next to you, ladies and gentlemen, for the cordial way in which you have responded to that toast. The best and only return I can make is to promise you that, whatever may be the destination to which my Sovereign may be graciously pleased to appoint me, I Asa hear with me the desire and determination to maintain the na tional honour and promote the commercial prosperity of our common country.—(Cheers.) If there be one other return which I can make to you, and which I know will also be acceptable, it is that of proposing to you as a toast, the health of the lady who sits at the Lord Mayor's side. I give you the " Lady Mayoress." The toast was received with enthusiastic cheering; and the Lord Mayor having . acknowledged it, the Lady Mayoress and the other ladies ,present soon after rose from the festive board, and retired. The Lord Mayor then gave " Prosperity to the City of London," and " The Health of Mr. Jones Lloyd." Mr. J. LLOYD responded. Several other toasts were subsequently proposed, and the company did not separate until a late hour. The entertainment was of the costly and superb cha racter for which Mansion-house dinners are so famous. It was provided by Messrs. Ring and Brymer, of Corn hill. Mr. Harker performed the onerous and important duties of toast-master in his usually efficient and judi cious style. GRAND ENTERTAINMENT AT THE MANSION-lIOUSE. Yesterday the Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress gave a splendid entertainment in the Egyptian Hall, which was fitted up for the occasion with great elegance.

The visitors amounted to upwards of 330 persons. After dinner, " For these and all thy mercies, Lord," was sung in exquisite style by an efficient corps of vocalists. The LORD MAYOR then rose and said—My Lords, ladies and gentlemen, this is one of the ancient festivals of the chief magistrates 'of the city of London, and in proposing to you the health of our Most Gracious Sove reign, the Queen, I am anxious, on the part of the citi zens of London, to express the great satisfaction that we feel, that amidst the changes which have taken place in I every country of Europe, except our own, we continue to live under our ancient institutions with those sentiments of attachment and loyalty to our gracious Sovereign which she so well deserves.—(Cheers.) I am sure that you will most cordially join with may in drinking "The Health of our Gracious Sovereign Queen Victoria, and may she long reign in the affections, the esteem, and the love of a grateful, a united, a prosperous , and a happy people."—(Loud cheers.) The toast was drunk with three times three, and one ;peer more, and was followed by the National Anthem. The LORD MAYOR again rose and proposed " The Health of her Majesty the Queen Dowager."—(Cheers.) The LORD MAYOR then gave " The Health of Prince Albert, Albert Prince of Wales, and the other branches of the Royal Family," which was responded to with all the honours. The LORD MAYOR next gave " The Army and Navy " (three times three). General Sir WILLIAM BROTHERTON returned thanks for the army, and Admiral the Marquis of THOMOND for the navy. The LORD MAYOR—It is one of the advantages of the official position which I have the honour to hold, that it enables me to have the gratification of seeing here many eminent and distinguished men; and I know that the citizens of London are never more pleased than when their Mayor invites to his hospitable board the distin guished foreign Ministers who are resident in this country. On the present occasion we have the honour of seeing here his Excellency the Turkish Am bassador and the Danish Minister, but I regret that, owing to sudden indisposition, we are deprived of the company of his Excellency the French Ambassador.—(Hear, hear.) lam sure the citizens of London would have been happy to have had the honour of assuring the French Ambassador how much they are gratified by the kind feeling which has sprung up be tween the two nations, and that they hail the appoint ment of his Excellency, who is so well known to nter• lain the most friendly disposition towards this country, as proof of a desire on the part of the President ot the French Republic to cultivate and maintain amicable re lations between the two countries.—(Cheers.) I can assure the illustrious Minister (the Turkish Minister) on my right hand, who is almost a stranger to this country, that he comes here with a most cordial welcome — (Cheers) —and we trust that he will find the citizens of London and the people of England, whilst they are satis fied and happy under their own excellent institutions, most desirous to show respect, courtesy, and esteem to all the distinguished Ministers with whom they may cone into communication.—(Cheers.) I have great pleasure in proposing to you "The Health of his Excel lency the Turkish Ambassador, and the Danish Minister, Count Reventlow."—(Three times three and one cheer more.) The Turkish Ambassador briefly returned thanks. The LORD MAYOR—Though everything like political feeling is carefully excluded from the convivialities of this house, yet we are nevertheless most anxious at all times to pay a mark of respect to her Majesty's Govern. ment. Upon the present occasion I will venture to say that the citizens of London ought more especially to be gratified with an opportunity of drinking the health of her Majesty's Ministers, because they enjoy the honour of having the Prime Minister of the country as their representative in Parliament.—(Cheers.) Without asking you to adhere to the views or opinions of the Government, I think it must be admitted, not only by the city of London, but by the country at large, that there never was a Government which took upon itself the administration of public affairs in this country in times of more perilous difficulty, or who has done more to preserve the honour of the country abroad, and peace and tranquillity at home.—(Cries of "Hear. hear.") We have not the pleasure of seeing here to-day any of the Members of the Cabinet; but when we consider the arduous duties of their office and their laborious attendance in Par liament, I am sure we can make allowance for their absence.—(Hear, hear). Still I have the honour of seeing now present some gentlemen connected with her Maji s ty's Government; and I am especially pleased to have this opportunity of showing a mark of respect to a gen tleman who has for some time ably filled a responsible and difficult post, and who is about to take upon himself a still higher office. Whether we regard that gentleman's conduct as an eloquent and independent Member of Par liament, or look upon him as a useful, an indefatigable; and an efficient secretary to one of the great departments of the public service, I take upon myself to assert that no one can leave this country and carry with him a greater amount of respect and approbation for his past conduct than will that Hon. Gentleman. his particularly gratifying to me to have this opportunity of speaking ot Mr. Ward, because we have seen him in very difficult positions with reference to the city of ,London, and I am sure that h* conduct has left upon our minds the most pleasing and grateful impressions.—(Hear, hear.) I beg to give" The Health of her Majesty's Ministers and Mr. Ward." The toast was drunk with three times three. Mr. WARD, M.P., in reply said—l thank you most sincerely for the kindness which has dictated this toast; but I beg you will excuse me if I say that I little ex pected, as a subordinate member of Lord John Russell's Government, that I should have been called upon to ad dress you to-night at your hospitable board to return thanks for her Majesty's Ministers. Still less did I con ceive that to my very humble services you, my Lord, would have made such flattering allusions, or connected with my name an appointment which, however prema turely it may have been circulated, has not yet received that confirmation which entitles me to speak of it as certain. You have accounted in a just and proper man ner for the absence of these members of the Cabinet wlso might, had they been here, have addressed you upon the policy which this Government has pursued— returned you thanks for the kindness which has prompted the toast you have given, and expressed their gratitude at having been enabled during a trying and critical period to conduct the affairs of the country in a manner which, I may say, has given general stitisfactioa.—(Hear, hear.) . More than this I dare not say at a meeting from which politics are excluded; but certainly there never was a period in which the capabilities of men in power for wisely ex ercising that power with promptitude, firmness, and vigour, and yet with that gentleness which the critical position of affairs demanded, were more severely than were the capabilities of her Majesty's Ministers during the year which saw all Europe base, except a country where we had fo u rs ential reforms tion , by the adoption of timely n . es that we have shattered s t to its ( in acchceoerdrsa.reswucihth othnley that it is not for witnessed in this country; d generalar s and I d s a h sua p if the community. when c almly and deliberately the opinion of the countrys)twill not further intrude upon the Government to hurry arnasbly a head, but to follow expressed.—CChef the toast.

Th DINE replied to the toast, and gave " The health of the Lord Mayor." The toast was drunk with three times three. The LORD MAYOR briefly responded, and 'proposed " The Clergy of the Church of England, and the Bishop of Lichfield," at the same time thanking the Right Rev. Prelate for his " Spital Sermon," delivered in the morn ing at Christ Church."—(Cheers.) 'rho bishop of Lics.raw-1y Lord, I thank you COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, MONDAY. The Queen and Prince Albert took their usual early morning walk. The Royal Family took walking and pony exercise to day in the grounds adjacent to the Castle. Her Majesty's private band was in attendance in the Castle after dinner this evening. His Serene Highness Prince Ernest of Leiningen ar rived at the Paddington terminus of the Great Western. Railway yesterday morning, from the residence of her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, Frogmore House. Windsor. The Prince proceeded to Marlborough House to pay a visit to the Queen Dowager, and partook of a dejeuner with her Majesty and the Princesses of nohow. lohe Schillingsfurst. His Serene Highness, attended by Sir George Couper, afterwards went to the Waterloo bridge terminus, and took his departure by the South. Western Railway. HULL. FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) Since the'very memorable epoch in the annals of the town of Kingston-upon-Hull, when its governor, Sir John Hotham, refused, on his knees, to admit his Maje,ty King Charles, no royalty has ever approached the precincts of that large :9A-tort, and it has been now upwards of two hundred years tabooed to the reigning families of England. It was thought when the Royal Consort visited the agricultural show, at York, some effort would have been made by the mayor, sheriff, magistrates, aldermen and common councillors of a port claiming to rank as the fourth port, at least, in the kingdom, to induce his Royal Highness to visit it; nothing, however, was then done. Another opportunity presents itself for the great men of Hull to raise their town in the estimation of their fellow-countryrmn. His Royal Highness will visit Grimsby on the 17th instant to lay the first stone of the dock there, and it is reported he will visit New Holland, the northern terminus of the Grimsby and Sheffield Railway, on the bank of the Humber, nearly opposite to Hull, and distant only about three miles. There seems at present but small chance of these worthies seizing so favourable a moment; either their ideas are so extravagant as to the requirements requisite to afford entertainment to Royalty, or they are nut quite so loyal as many of them boast themselves. The inhabitants certainly would be highly gratified by a visit from Prince Albert, and the inertness of the authorities is loudly complained of. The Mayor, whilom, was a free and open-hearted man, but latterly, and since the last election more particularly, he appears to be tainted with a portion of the old leaven, following rather in the wake of others than fearlessly carrying out what his own thoughts and feelings dictate. Let him remember that it is to him the inhabitants look for promptitude in all matters relative to the welfare and exaltation of the town, and he alone must be the party to blame, if blame accrue. It has been said by some of the wise ones that his Royal Highness's visit being to Lincolnshire, it would not be right to invite him into Yorkshire. Perhaps when he visited the city of York it was not right to ask him to visit the town and county of Kingston upon-Hull, or should his Royal Highness ever honour Hull with a visit, he must not see the Victoria Dock, being situate in Drypool. ROBBING A RAILWAY COMPANY.—On Thursday, John Ileyes, clerk at the Newcastle station of the York, Newcastle, and Berwick (North Shields) Railway, Ro;- bert Bowie, guard, Alexander Alexander, ticket-collector at Percy Main, and Robert Codling, ticket collector at North Shields, were charged before J. Bulman and G. T. Dunn Esqrs., with having conspired togeth er to de fraud the company of proprietors. Mr. Newton, of York, solicitor, appeared for the prosecut i o n. Tickets, he stated, instead of being sent from Newcastle to York for comparison with the receipts in money, had been issued over and over again, the company only receiving payment for a single issue. Mr. Al!port stated that the affair had come to his knowledge through a servant who examined tickets before the trains started.§Ticketo were marked consecutively, and his informant had dis covered to his surprise that lower numbers were issued in the afternoon than in the morning. The clerk's ex planation was that he numbered some hundreds in the morning and put theca into a bowl, the lower numbers being at the bottom. A watch, however, was set, the explanation was ascertained to be false, and tickets issued at eight and nine o'clock in the morning were found upon the clerk's person at a later period of the day. The reissues had always taken place on the same day, so that there was nothing to excite suspicion at York. Upon the person of the guard and at his home money was found sltio e ow z w iti t : e ene n ,g t fla o t f h .e 4 r ll o / f . ; the and femaleupo the , Percy Main collector, 501.

The old lady adopted this course, but on the return of her husband a search was made, and it was found that the money had been re moved, and the two prisoners had absconded. Inquiries were immediately made, and a clue having been obtained to the fugitives, they were apprehended on Thursday in this town. The girl had 401. upon her, and her husband 15/. an i some silver. The prisoner in her defence said her father had promised to give her 70/. on her mar riage. A brother to the female prisoner appeared in court, and said he would convoy the prisoners back to Ireland.
