The powerful influence of the sun on the skin at this period of the year calls for increased attention in preserving its delicacy and beauty. The most pleasing and effectual specific for this desirable object fs ROWL ANDS' K AL YDR, so deservedly, established in Royal a n d Public favour and O estimation. Its application neutralizes the effects of atmosphere, and induces that healthy action of the microscopic vessels of the skin, by which its delicacy and beauty are so essentially promoted. Freckles, Tan, Spots, Pimples, and Discolorations fly before the application of the KALYDOR, and give place to a healthy smoothness and transpa- rency of complexion. Ladies travelling or taking out-door exercise will find it to diffuse a grateful and refreshing feeling. In cases of Sunburn, or Stings of Insects, its virtues have long been acknow ledged.

HOME ClRCUlT.—Maidstone, July 25. (Before Mr. Sergead GAzELEE.) John Joseph Clark, aged 27, vas indicted for the ca pital offence of burglariously braking and entering the dwelling-house of Augustus Mulyard, and stealing twc watches, some plate, and other veluable property, and at the time of committing the burgltry it was alleged that the prisoner beat and wounded tie prosecutor. Mr. Hawkins prosecuted, and lir. Charnock defended the prisoner. It appeared, from the very clew and concise statement of the Learned Counsel for the prosecution, and the evi dente that was produced in support of it, that the offence which was the subject of the iiquiry, was committed under very extraordinary end aggravated circumstances. The prosecutor is a farmer, residing in a rather lonely position in the parish of Meopharn, and it seemed that it was his custom not to allow his men servants to sleep on the premises, and the only inmates of the house at night were himself, his wile, ands female servant. They re tired to bed at the usual hour on the Ist of June, and about midnight the prosecutor was woke by hearing a noise at his bed-room window. He at first imagined there was an alarm of fire, and on his getting up and going towards th e w i n d ow l ie o b serve d t h e heads of two men, who w er e apparen tl y stan di ng on the ladder. The men were di sgu i se d b y h av i ng t h e ir shirts over their clothes, and a sort o f w hit e cap ove r their faces, with holes in the m t o l oo k t h rotn4h an d before-the pro secutor had any opp or t un i t y to Observe ttheirparticu• . larly, or to offer any resistance, the window wail crushed in, and several men, all disguised ix the manner stated, jumped into the room and commenced a most brutal at tack upon the prosecutor with bludgeons, and one of the ruffians also struck him with an iran bar. He begged for mercy, and at length he was permitted to get into bed, and the villains then. insisted upon having the money that was in the hobse. The prosecutor informed them that there was very little moue? in the house at the time, and they then demanded the plate, and they compelled the wife of the prosecutor tc accompany them down stairs and show them where it was kept, two of the gang keeping guard over the prosecutor, while the rest went down stairs to get the property. The wife of the prosecutor then delivered up the money that was in her possession, and also the plate, and one of the gang wrapped up the property in a bundle, and took it out and delivered it to a confede rate, w hol was waiting outside. The prosecutor's wile was then compelled to got into bed again, while the ruffians ransacked the house, and while so engaged they discovered a receipt for some money, upon which they returnod to the bedroom and repeated their demand for money, asserting that they were certain there was some in the house, and one of the ruffians declared that BLACK'S COUNTY MAPS of SCOT LAND, carefully Coloured, according to their Parochial and District Divisions, with all the Railways, Places of Histori cal and Legendary Note, Memoranda of Battles, &c., &c.

The plaintiff had charged aim with injuring his character, and threatened to bring ,n action against him; and he replied, that when he could prove that bills with his indorsement upon them or 1001. were in the hands of such persons as Smith, and had been offered for so little as 151., he thought the Jury would give him a very poor verdict if he did bring 4n action. The plaintiff then Laid, that he had given .hese bills in order to enable him to take up. other bills , hat were coming due. The day after this bill got into 1 - ie possession of Smith, he called at his shop and made the following memorandum in a book, which he pro Juced:— "Dear Cubitt,—lf any one should make any inquiries of you respecting Storrar, of Southampton, make it right; I have referred the parties to you. " Yours truly, "JOHN SMITH." The witness continued-1n consequence of this num bers of persons did call upon him to make inquiries re specting the plaintiff; and this particular bill and several others were referred to. In fact, be was "dunned to death" upon the subject. He stated all the circum stances to the plaintiff, and told him that he must be aware no money had passed for the bill, and the only answer he made was, that he had got the bill, and he would make the defendant pay it, Mr. CHAMBERS said this was the case for the de fendant. _ _ The CHIEF BARON asked to which of the pleas he considered his evidence applied. Mr. CHAMBERS said he considered the plea that the plaintiff was aware of the bill having been fraudulently obtained by Smith was made out. At all events, enough bad been shown, he contended, to call upon the plaintiff to show that he had given consideration for the bill. . _ Sergeant GAZHLEE said he would prove the conside• ration ; but, after consulting with his junior, he de clined doing so, and said he would leave the case where it was. The CHIEF BARON then said, he would not take upon himself to decide that there was no evidence to support the plea relied upon by the counsel for the defendant, but according to his opinion there was very little. His Lordship then proceeded to address the jury, and after explaining the nature of the action, he observed that it was highly important in a commercial community like this, that the validity of bills of exchange should not be suffered to be disputed upon light grounds, and he said it would be much better that the law should be strictly upheld respecting them, than that it should be in the slightest degree set aside, in order to meet any parti cular transaction resulting from a combination of block heads and knaves. If a man was ass enough to accept a bill of exchange, and hand it over to a knave, he must take the consequences, and if such a bill came into the possession of a bona fide holder for value, he was bound to tell them, that is law such a person had a right to recover from the acceptor, provided that he had no knowledge of any fraud having; been practised. The only question in this cause, therefore, was, whether or not, at the time the bill got into the possession of the plaintiff, he was aware of the manner in which it had been obtained, and if the jury should be of opinion that he was not, or that he was only made acquainted with it afterwards, he would be entitled to recover. It establish hd the to facthim hthe plaintiff evidence b e iwasng aware insuffic o i insuffi cient ta any fraud, and if the jury should be of the same opinion, it would be their duty to return a verdict in his favour. If, on the contrary, they considered that the evidence es tablished that fact, tlfey would find for the defendant. The jury, notwithstanding the summing up of his Lordship, immediately returned a verdict for the de fendant.

At the last Court of Aldermen, Alderman and Sheriff Finnis presented a petition from the importers of foreign cattle and sheep and wharfingers of the city of London. The petition stated that by an Act passed in the 21st year of George 111. to prevent the mischiefs that had Arisen from driving cattle within the cities of London And Westminster and liberties thereof, the mayor and aldermen shall have full power to make rules for re gulating persons who drive cattle, &c., and to alter and emend them; that the Court did accordingly, on the 24th of September, 1839, make such rules, whereby it was ordered that no person shall drive, or permit to be driven, any cattle, &e., into any st ree t or pl ace w i t hi n one mile of Smithfield. market on any Sunday before 11 at night, under a penalty of 405.; that since the date of the making of such rules the Legislature had passed a law permitting the importation of foreign cattle and sheep into this country, which the petitioners were largely concerned in importing ; that the vessels so employed discharged their cargoes at St. Katharine's Dock-wharf, Brewer's and Chester quays, and London bridge-wharf, and it very frequently happened that, from the state of the wind and tide, and other causes, they did not arrive at their destination until Sunday morning; and, to facilitate the landing of the cattle, the officers of Customs were always in attendance on Sundays for the purpose of inspecting and passing them. That it was in dispensably necessary that the cattle should be landed immediately on their arrival, and, on being landed, be driven to a place where food and water could be given to them. That the wharfs and quays could not afford the accommodation required. That the petitioners had taken places in Smithfield for the express purpose of there sup plying the cattle, &c., so imported with food and water; but, by the existing rules of the Court, it was an offence to drive cattle through the streets before eleven o'clock on Sunday night, and that the cattle must therefore be kept on board until after eleven o'clock on Sunday ; and from the crowded state of tho vessel it was impossible to give them the necessary food and water, whereby they suffered much pain and misery, and were greatly deteriorated and reduced in value to the petitioners, and the wharfingers sustained much inconvenience and annoyance by the cattle not being immediately landed and driven from their premises. The petition concluded with the prayer that the Court would so alter and amend the rules as to the driving of cattle as the altered state of the law and the exigencies of the case might require. Aldermen llumphery, Sir P. Laurie, Wilson, Sidney, &c., opposed the motion for referring the petition to a committee, and it was supported by Aldermen Lawrence and Finnis. The LORD MAYOR said the petitioners had waited upon him on the subject, and stated some things which did not exactly correspond with the apparent object of the petition. Ho suggested that they should make some change in it, in order to enable a committee to undertake an investigation. Alderman FiNsas then withdrew the petition, but with the understanding that at the next court another appli cation should be made upon the subject. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

UNDER ROYAL PATRONAGE BEWLEY, FISHER, AND CO.'S CONCENTRATED ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER. —This Preparation contains, in a highly concentrated state, and without the addition of any more heating stimulant, all the car minative and restorative properties of this useful and grateful aro matic, separated from the ligneous fibre which constitutes the bulk of the root. As few stomachs are able to bear a sufficient quantity of the powder to produce the desired effect, BEWLEY, FISHER, and CO. conceive this form of exhibition the most convenient, when taken in water, tea, beer, wine, &c. ; or for combination with other medicine, ten drops being equal to eight grains of the powder. It is recommended to persons of Phlegmatic, Gouty, Dyspeptic, and Ner vous habits. Its beneficial effects are quickly diffused throughout the whole system, relieving cramps, spasms, flatulency, pain, and sense of oppression after meals, and restoring the tone of the stomach. Its utility is also manifested as an adjunct to other medi cines, and in correcting the chill which soda and other aerated or mineral waters give the stomach, as well as in adding to their tonic property. In bottles at 2s. 6d. and 45., prepared by BEWLEY, FISHER, and Co., 64, Dame-street, Dublin. Also their Anodyne Lettuce Lozenges, for coughs, colds, asthma, and affections of the chest. Doctor Duncan, of Edinburgh, and other leading members of the profession, have strongly recommended Lactucarium (the inspis sated juice of the garden Lettuce) as possessing peculiarly soothing and quieting properties in the above complaints, and especially in the troublesome cough attendant on consumption. To increase its efficacy, Bewley, Fisher, and Co. have combined it with hippo and demulcents, and have adopted the form of a lozenge as being the most agreeable mode for its administration.

LIVERPOOL, Jinx 27.—The arrivals from Ireland and coastwise, as well as from abroad, since Tuesday, have been quite unimportant. The exports in the same time have also been trifling. As the weather, which at the beginning of the week was extremely wet, has since become more favourable, the demand for wheat and flour has been languid, though prices have been well maintained. Indian corn has met with little attention, and some sales of prime yellow were reported at 29s per quarter, being a further decline of is per quarter. In other articles no change has occurred. At this day's market there was only a slender attendance of the trade, and wheat and flour met with an extremely slow sale, at about the prices of Tues day. Oats and oatmeal were without change in value. For barley, beans, and peas there was the usual retail demand at our late quotations. Indian corn was in very limited request, and fully 2s per quarter lower, 28s per quarter being the top price of prime yellow.

DISTRESSED NEEDLEWOMEN'S SOCIETY.—A lively interest has been taken during the last few days by the patrons of this society to show their respect to the honorary secretary, by securing tickets on the occasion of the entertainment to take place next week at the Hanover-square Rooms. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge was foremost in securing tickets for the dinner. The same honour has been conferred for the ball by the lady patronesses, amongst whom are her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester and several of the nobility. Mr. John Hart and Mr. Edward Allen bad an inter view with the Commissioners of her Majesty's Woods and Forests yesterday respecting the Quadrant 'ALS. if it was not given up he would set fire to the bed and burn them both in it. The prosecutor still persisted in declaring that he had no more money, and at length the gang of ruffians left the house, taking with them the booty they had obtained. In consequence of the effectual manner in which they had disguised themselves, neither the prosecutor nor his wifo was able to speak to the identity of any of the persons concerned is the outrage, and the only evidence they could give upon the point was that the prisoner resembled in gait and general appear ance one of the men, but the guilt of the prisoner was clearly established by the evidence of one of the gang, a man named Prior, who was admitted a witness for the Crown; and the cor roborative testimony that was adduced in support of it. From the statement of the accomplice it appeared that ho had been living in the house of the prisoner, a lodging-house at Gravesend, for a short time before the burglary, and on the Wednesdy before it was committed, the prisoner proposed to him to join in it, and introduced him to four persons who were strangers to him, but who, he said, were first-rate housebreakers, and they arranged to commit the robbery on the Ist of June. They then, he said, proceeded separately to the neighbourhood of the prosecutor's farm, for the purpose of " sounding," and ascertaining what his arrangements wore, and having discovered that none of the labourers slept upon the tarm, they resolved upon carrying out their project as they had arranged. They, accordingly, six in number, went to the prosecutor's farm, and having obtained a ladder, it was placed against the bed-room window, and some of the gang went up the ladder, for the purpose of forcing their way into the bed-room, while the accomplice Prior was set to watch another part of the house, to see that no one left the premises in that direction, and ho was instructed to knock out the brains of any one who attempted to do so. The prisoner Clark, it appeared. was at first stationed at the toot of the ladder, to give an alarm if any one ap proached, but after his companions had been in the house a short time he joined them, and assisted in the search for plunder. Witnesses were examined in corroboration of the accomplice's story, who proved that the prisoner was in his company on the day the robbery wa- committed, and that he had also been seen near the fns-n. - tfie4;-aou - wuctuer Lad Inert-servants slept on the premises; and in addition to these facts, it appeared that after he was in gaol he made a statement to one of his fellow-prisoners which was tantamount to an admission of his share in the transaction, and that he also said that Prior would have had his share of the booty if he had waited a few days. Mr. CUARNOCK addressed the jury on the part of the prisoner, and endeavoured with considerable ingenuity to show that there was no reality, no actual corroboration of the accomplice's testimony, and upon that ground he called upon them to acquit the prisoner. Mr. Sergeant GAZELEE summed up ; and the jury, after a very short deliberation, returned a verdict of Guilty. The Learned SERGEANr, after making some appro• priate remarks upon the very aggravated and alarming character of the offence of which the prisoner had been convicted, ordered judgment of death to be recorded, with an intimation that the prisoner would be, transported for life. July 26. The Chief Baron returned to the circuit this morning, and took his seat in the Nisi Prius Court. Mr. Baron Alderson proceeded to town on Wednesday evening to attend at Chambers, and Mr. Sergeant Wallinger pre sided in the Crown Court. In the course of the day a third Court was formed before Mr. Sergeant Gaselee. (Before the CHIEF BARON and a Common Jury.) STORRER U. HARMAN. This was an action upon a bill of exchange for 1721., the defendant being sued as the acceptor. A great number of special pleas were put upon the re e,,rd, but the material defence relied upon was that the bill had been obtained by fraud, and that the plaintiff was aware of the fact, and that he had given no consi deration for the bill. Mr. M. Chambers and Mr. Hur!stone were for the defendant; Sergeant Gaselee and Mr. Lush appeared for the plaintiff. The case on the part of the plaintiff consisted in merely the production of the bill, and proof that the ac ceptance was the handwriting of the defendant. Mr. CHAMBERS, on the part of the defendant, said that the defence he was instructed to offer was, that he had been swindled out of this bill, under a pretence that it should be discounted for him ; but instead of that being done, he bad, in point of fact, never received a single farthing, and when the jury had heard the evidence he should adduce, he believed they would not entertain any doubt that the plaintiff, who now sued as the holder of the bill, was perfectly cognizant of the fraud that had been practised, and on that ground he was not entitled to recover. Mr. Bryant deposed that he was the drawer of th4bill in question. In the beginning of the present year, the defendant, with whom he was acquainted, wanted to raise some money upon a reversionary interest,:and witness endeavored to get some person to advance him the amount he required, but failing to do so, he suggested that a bill of exchange should be drawn by him, and ac cepted by the defendant, and he told him that ho believed he should be able to get the bill discounted, through the agency of a person named Smith. Accordingly, on the 26th February, he accompanied the defendant to a public house in Beak-street, where they saw a brougham and servant standing at the door, belonging to Smith, and they afterwards saw that person in the smoking-room of the house. It was then arranged that this bill should be drawn, but as Smith had not got money enough to buy a stamp, he went out to borrow some. Smith came back accompanied by a person named Cubitt, and the stamp was at length procured, and witness drew the bill, and it was accepted by the defendant, and then handed to Smith who undertook to got it discounted. In the month of November previous to this transaction be saw the plain tiff, who carried on the business of an upholsterer at Southampton, for the purr ose of arranging a debt which Smith owed him, and upon that occasion the plaintiff seemed very vindictive against Smith, and said that be knew he c ou ld neve r p a y him, unless he had a "slice o f luck," or " nailed" somebody, as he generally did. Mr. Cubitt deposed that he was an upholsterer, and carried on business in Sherrard-street, Regent street. He was, to his sorrow, acquainted with John Smith, the person referred to by the last witness. He remem bered, on the 26th February, that ho came to his shop and wanted to borrow ten shillings of him. Ho refused to let him have the money then, but accompanied him to Campbell's Stores in Beak-street, where he found the defendant and Mr. Bryant, and after some conversation a stamp was procured and the present bill was drawn and accepted and handed to Smith, who took it away, saying that he was going to get it discounted by a soli citor, and that he would bring the money back in two hours. A day or two after this he saw the bill still in Smith's possession, and he wanted witness to discount it, offering to give half the amount of the bill for the accom modation. About a fortnight after that, the plaintiff and Smith came to his shop in the brougham of the latter, and Smith said that he had "nailed" the fellow at last, and had got his acceptance, and he understood him to refer to the defendant. After this had occurred, he saw the plaintiff again at his shop, and he; remarked to him that he was surprised a person who represented himself to be a respectable tradesman should mix him self up with persons such as Gadderer and Co., who were known to be the most notorious swindlers in Lon don, and with whom Smith was connected. The plain tiff replied that he had got the bills in his possession, and that he would make the people pay. Witness then told him that he must be aware that Mr. Harman had never received a shilling of the money, and he at the same time told him that the bill had been hawked about the City with his indorsement upon it, and; had been of- OXFORD ClRCUlT.—Stafford, July 26. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice ERLE.) William Hoddy, 20, was indicted for cutting and wounding Samuel Armishaw, at Stone, on the 22d May. The prosecutor, a brewer's drayman, went to a public house with some barrels, and after unloading them, he went into a room in which were the prisoner and two other men. He called for a pint of ale, and one of the men, named Carter, commenced ill-using him, backed by the other two, when prosecutor knocked Carter down. The three men went out, and prosecutor followed with his waggon on the Stone road about twenty minutes af terwards. After going some distance, he found Hoddy, Carter, and Beresford in the road. Carter went up, and tried to pull him out of the waggon. Armishaw struck him with the whip, and Beresford then seized the near leader's head, on which the drayman jumped out of the waggon, sheti Hoddy, who was standing on the footpath_ with c►uevym a nunn rin, mulcting a wound about one inch in breadth and two-and-a-halt in depth. The prisoner's defence was, that he used the knife to protect himself from the whip of the prosecutor; but the witness denied that he was struck at all. The prisoner was found Guilty, and sentenced to be transported for ten years. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—York, July 25. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. Justice PATTESON and a Special Jury.) SAYLES V. BLANK. In this case the plaintiff complained, that being the owner of 20 shares in the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway Company, of 251. each, the de fendant agreed to buy them, and pay the price, accept a transfer of them, and cause the transfer to be registered; that the defendant accepted the transfer, and paid the price, ice but did not cause a memorial of the transfer to be registered in the company's books, and the plaintiff's name being left standing in the company's books as owner, he remained liable to pay the calls, and had, in fact, paid five calls and interest, amounting to 2611. 103. There was a second count for that sum, as money paid for the defendant's use, at his request. The defendant pleaded, denying, Ist, the agreement ; 2d, that the plaintiff was the owner; and 3d, that he ac cepted the transfer. Mr. KNOWLES, for the defendant, submitted to his Lordship that the plaintiff had not only not proved, but had disproved one of the allegations in this declaration, which he was bound to prove. The plaintiff did not sell the shares to the defendant; the brokers treated each other as principals; there was no contract between the plaintiff and the defendant, and whatever the defendant said in his letter was negatived by the facts proved. Mr. Justice PATTESON said he did not see how Scho field, a share-dealer, was connected with the defendant. lle did not see that it could be possibly said that the plaintiff sold to the defendant. The alleged contract seemed to him to be negatived, and the only remaining question was, on the second count, for money paid for the defendant, and the question on that was, whether the acceptance of the transfer did not amount to a re quest to the plaintiff to pay the calls. He thought nut, but he would give Mr. Martin leave to move upon it for the plaintiff. lle plaintiff was then nonsuited, with leave to enter a verdict for him on the second count for 2611. 10s. THE LATE THUNDEIi. STORM. The house, No. 12, Poland-street, Oxford•street, in the occupation of Mr. Channon, was struck by the elec tric fluid, entirely destroying the back part of the pre mises. The chief of the massive brickwork, several ton weight, fell into the composing•room of Mr. Schulze, printer, No. 13, adjoining, where ten compositors were at work, who fortunately escaped uninjured. One man was so terribly alarmed that he leaped out of the second-floor window. A projecting out-house broke his fall, or he must have been dashed to pieces; as it was he only sus tained a few bruises. About half-past two, immediately following a heavy clap of thunder, a barge, in which were two men, was seen to founder off Nine Elms. Boats put off, but before assistance could reach them the poor fellows sunk and were drowned. _ _ _ Three of a flock of sheep grazing in a field at Green lane, West-end, belonging to a Mr. Lambutt, were found dead, having been struck by the lightning. So great was the devastation among the feathered tribe, that in the vicinity of Kennington and Camberwell dead sparrows were to be seen lying at almost every step. A man named Skinner, living in Prince's road, picked up 130. St. Paul's Church, Covent-garden, was struck by the electric fluid in several parts, and the rain made its way through, owing to some dislodgment of the outer cover ing. The ceiling, which is considered to be one of the finest is London, has received immense injury. The authorities immediately made every necessary arrange ment for its protection, and yesterday a number of work men were ordered to repair the injury done to the sacred edifice. EXECUTION AT LINCOLN.—LINCOLN, FRIDAY, JULY 27.—The last sentence of the law was carried into effect at twelve o'clock this day upon John Ward, who, at the last assizes for this county, was found guilty of the murder of his mother, Martha Ward. No sooner had the wretched convict reached the scaffold than ho became dreadfully convulsed, and upon his partial re covery he confessed to the sheriff that he shot his mother intentionally on account of her interference about the servant girl, Susan Baggs. The convict, although. he had previously confessed to the Rev. Mr. Ritchey, the chaplain, for some days previously exhibited no corn punction, but after the Rev. Gentleman had pointed out the fearful position in which he stood, ho joined daily with him in prayer, and, in the course of the Scriptural readings which took place, ho expressed his sorrow and penitence, and said that he hoped God would pardon and save him. These sentiments he repeated at the place of executioq. When asked if he had made . a full confession, whether he was truly . sorr y and penitent? the wretched parricide replied, in emphatic d ton t e h s, " Yes."

THE ROYAL BANK OP LIVERPOOL.—The annual meeting of the shareholders of this bank took place yes terday, at two o'clock, Francis Shand, Esq., in the chair. The attendance was very numerous, many gen tlemen having come from a considerable distance. The report of the directors stated that the net profits of the bank (after the payment of all expenses and the inte rest on the preference shares) amounted to the sum of 20,8911. 145. 2d. ; and that since the resumption of business no bad debts had been incurred. The sum it is proposed to carry to a reserved fund, and the direc tors had full confidence that the shareholders would confirm the propositioe, affording, as it did, the best means of providing for any possible contingency, as well as laying the foundation for greater uniformity in the payment of dividends in future. Inrealising the assets of the bank, the directors might not have made as much progress as they anticipated, but the shareholders were reminded that, from the character of the property in which the bank is interested, both in this country and in the West Indies, it would have been most injudicious, especially with so many increasing symptoms of im provement, to have forced such property prematurely upon the market. The Chairman said that it would be unnecessary for him to do more than to move the adop tion of the report. Mr. Alderman Cooper said that he cordially seconded its adoption, and had pleasure in congratulating the meeting on the position in which they then stood---so different from that in which they were placed eighteen months ago. The report was then unanimously adopted, amidst considerable applause, Several questions were asked by Mr. Dimmock, Mr.nt Jones, and other gentlemen, which were cle arly and satisfactorily replied to by the chairman ; and after vote of thanks had been passed t o the directors, to Mr. Chaffers (the manager) , to Mr. Myers,. and the Chair: Chair man, the meeting separated, all expressing their gratifi cation at the successful operations of the bank, and at its re-established position. ATTEMPT AT MURDER.—The village of Isleham, seven miles from Newmarket, was on Monday last (the 23d) thrown into consternation by a most deliberate attempt to murder. The perpetrator is Robert Norman, a turfman and carter, in comfortable circumstances, and his victim a girl of 17 years of age, named Sarah Ann Petch, the daughter of his wife before his marriage with her. The attempt was made about eight o'clock in the morning, with a large clasp kaife, which penetrated the windpipe, and made a wound of four inches in length. The girl was at the time standing with her back to Nor man in the kitchen, and his wife and son (about 10 years of age) standing by. He afterwards made a slight wound in his own throat. The prisoner had frequently taken improper liberties with the girl, and is of a violent character. Three weeks since, in a quarrel, he threat ened to play " Rush" with his wife, and said he " would not be hung for one, nor yet for two." The immediate cause of the act seems to have arisen from the girl's having absented herself from the house on Sunday last without the prisoner's consent. The girl being in a very precarious state, the attendance of a magistrate from the Newmarket bench, then sitting, was requested, and the Rev. W. Acton, accompanied by Mr. Oke, the assistant ' clerk to the magistrates, attended at Isleham to take her declaration, but she having hope of recovery, theorin preli minary inquiry was gone into in the usualom ry.aooere w the presence of the prisoner, in the_ afterro thehexamly., a attempt to murder had been made; a nd nation of the girl, the son, Mr. Addison, t he surgeon, and the constable, Ellington, he wag g irl is still (Wed as fully committed to the next Cambridge Assizes.

KIN G'S COLLEGE. - uktsetleil to this institution took in the great hall o f t h e C o ll ege, i n the Place e ,‘,senee of a very crowded auditory. The Lord Bishop of London (in the absence of Sir Robert Inglis, M.P.) presided, and was supported by Lord Rads tuck, and several other patrons of the institution. The RIGHT REV. PRELATE, in opening the proceedings, remarked upon the satisfactory progress of the College in all its departments, and especially that one wiih which the business of the day was more immediately connected. He took credit for having been one of those among the founders of the College who had thought it desirable to connect with the higher departments of the institution a junior educational vstabl'shtnent, and he rejoiced at the eminent success which had attended the school under the excellent superiatendenco of the head-master, Dr. Major. In proof of the degree of success, ho might mention that already pupils in the lower department, who had not completed their education at King's College, had obtained distinguished honours at Oxford and Cambridge. Dr. MAJOR having explained to the Bishop the prin ciples on which the prizes had been awarded, his Lord ship proceeded with the distribution.

NORTH WESTERN. —OPENING A PORTION OF THE LINE. On Thursd a y last the shareholders' opening of 25 miles of this railway.—front its commencement at a junc tion with the Leeds and Bradford extension, about two miles east of Skipton to Ingleton—took place with the usual ceremonies. The main line was originally planned and intended to extend from Ingleton to a junction with the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway, near Kendal, but the intentien has been abandoned, temporarily at least, and the junction will now be made by that railway at Lancaster by means of the Lancaster branch, which commences at the Wen ning Bank, Clapham Moor, and runs direct to Lan caster. This portion is now in course of construction, and will be opened in March next. It is 18 miles in length, and when finished it will become a portion of the main line, and shorten the distance to the north - western districts of Scotland by about 20 miles. From the commencement of the North-Western, near Skipton, to Ingleton, only a single line of rails has been laid down, but all the works are constructed with a view to a double line, when the traffic may require it. The entire cost of the 25 miles, including Parli a m en t ar y ex penses, will notamount to more than 16,0001. per mile. The stations on the line are at Skipton, Gargrave, Bell Busk, Helefield, Long Preston, Settle, Clapham, and Ingleton. The company have a branch from Lancaster to Poul ton-le-Sands, which branch has been open for some time, and has already conduced to the improvement of Foul tun as a bathing place. The train left Ingleton shortly afier nine o'clock, and was upwards of two hours and a halt in performing the journey to Skipton. Its approach was welcomed by the band, which had been engagtd for the day. After stopping at Ingleton 48 minutes, the train started on its return, rt aching Settle, distant about nine miles and a half from Ingleton, at 25 minutes before five o'clock. The directors, with a number of other shareholders, and gentlemen to whom invitations had been sent, dincd together at the Golden Lion Hotel, in the evening. The chair was occupied by Mr. Pudsey Dawson. The usual toasts were given, 6' Success to the Railway," " The health of the Chairman," and several other toasts were proposed and acknowledged. Trains started from the Settle station, conveying the shareholders to Skipton and Ingleton, about ten o'clock. A special train left Skipton for Leeds and Bradford after the arrival of the train from Settle, and it was half-past twelve o'clock b e f ore i t reached Leeds. Y N . ORK, .EWCASTLE, AND BIERIVICK. , --it appears that one of the committee appointed at the meeting of this company on the 19th inst. has subsequently expressed his determination not to act. The other members of the committee have determined to act, upon the re solution of the shareholders, with the utmost prompti tude against Mr. Hudson and , others ; but to remove any legal doubts, which the withdrawal of Mr. Shield, the member alluded to, might create, as to the authority of the remaining members of :the committee, a special meeting will be convened at the earliest day for the pur pose of confirming the proceedings to be taken by the committee in the meantime, and of vesting in the re maining members of the committee all legal powers that may be necessary. LIVERPOOL, CROSBY, AND SOUTIIPORT.—The report of the directors states that the line is still unfinished, and not directly connected with any of its leading sources of traffic. The balance to the credit of revenue account amounts to 3,130/, deducting the amounts due to the Lancashire and Yorkshire Company and to the omnibus proprietors, and leaves a net balance of traffic receipts over expenses of 2,830/. It will be for the shareholders to decide whether a dividend at the rata of 2} per cent. shall be declared for the halt-year on the amount of calls now actually paid up in full to the 30th of June. The directors propose imme diately making arrangements for the completion of the line. The cost of the extension for a double line, exclusive of land, is estimated at 43,0001. The directors do not anticipate that any further call on the share holders will be necessary this year beyond the 10/. per share already called up, as the company possess power to borrow 70,000/.; they urge on the shareholders im mediately to pay the calls already made, in order that the pecuniary arrangements in connexion with the ex tension line may be at once completed. The directors propose to declare the forfeiture of 956 shares, in con sequence of the non-payment of calls thereon, and the inability of the holders to liquidate them. The ac counts to the 30th of June show that 96,800/. had been received, and 91,764/. expended, leaving a balance of 4,036/. EASTERN COUNTIES AND NORFOLK RAILWAY ANAL GAMATION.—The Committee of the House of Lords ap pointed to consider this subject have specially reported, that it is not expedient to proceed further with the Bill; and that after inquiring into the allegations contained in the petitions, they find that no evidence was brought forward in any degree affecting the character of the deputy-chairman of the Norfolk Company. READING, GUILDFORD, AND REIGATE.—The remain ing portion of this line, between Farnborough and Dork ing, is so far completed as to allow of experimental trips being made between the termini, and the whole line will be shortly in operation.
