A it A E. Al One half the world are desolately single, and the other supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em hater the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea Of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un oomprosiag harry ' • but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapac it y , and broken health, are the great hiadrances to domestic happiness said social content. The dowry should met be the only marriage set tlement. Honour and justicedenaand that health should form emit= In the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or neglect wand more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if these surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little MEMOIRS "On Single and Married Life," pu:,. in 2 vols., Is. each (by post, in stamps, la. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be histdcred by misinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle curiosity, but for the closet perusal of those mere deeply interested, to whom they are offered as antago nistic to the empyrical trash put forth on the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other little publications claim your attention (same price Is. each, by post Is. 6d.) called "What to Ea t, Drink, and Avoid,. and " How to be sappy." They are not merely pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor arc they the Mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's l ife, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob servance of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as he would be done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always On the sunny side of the way."

My Lord, you"will pardon a pun on the Punjaub, When I say 'Us a bad job as well as a done job. Napier, it appears, is to start as your peer, Commanded to take the commandership here. Gough must go of, so the rulers declare, And another must settle the Sutlej affair. This decision, my Lord, may be painful to you, But I view it as proper —I certainly do. Only think o: the victims who fell by the Jhelum, I fain would restore them, and raise them, and heftl'em, And view the brave captains who now are no more, Who fought their last fight on the Jhelum's red shore. But, my Lord, I forbear, and at once I would waive A topic so touching —a subject so grave. I was thinking, my Lord, tbet the subject is one Which may give el idea to E. MOSES and SON. Though you as Commander-in-Chief must come back With something which greatly resembles the sack. St 11. still Messrs. MOSES and SON are displayed As the gallant Commanders-in-Chief of the trade. Encamped on a spot for which multitudes search, Commanding a view of St. Botolph's tall chureu. E. MOSES and SON in a mercantile war Have faced competition, and made him withdraw. THE GARMENTS OF MOSES Command admiration, As samples of fashion, whatever our station. And (el who such articles wisely procure A very commanding appearance ensure. THE HATS AND THE BOOTS Bought at MOSES depot Command approbation wherever they go ; And MOSES' command the respect of the buyer Precisely the same as they do in attire. While armies of ladles (excuse such a phrase), Honour MOSES and SON with unlimited praise : FURS, HOSIERY, SHAWLS, And in fact all the rest, Command vast support as the cheapest and best. And thus Messrs. MOSES and SON are displayed As Commanders-in-Chief in the battle of trade. LIST OF PRICES. READY MADE.

We are requested to c ontradict a report circulated by one or two of the weekly journals, thereby becoming current in the playgoing world, viz., that Mrs. Nisbett and Mr. Farren had taken the Olympic Theatre; we are authorised to state that this isonly idle gossip, without an iota of foundation. The fair and talented actress in question, together with her sister Miss Jane Mordaunt, have been playing some of their favourite characters most successfully at Bolton and Preston, and are now doing much to dispel the melancholy cast over theatri cals at Glasgow; for since the late fatal catastrophe the theatre has been almost deserted. We hear that their united talents have given life and vigour to affairs, as they are attrecti'ig again crowded and fashionable house and " doing great things" for the management. After quit ting Glasgow, they will be engaged to play a f ew wee k s at the Theatre Royal, Edinburgh, and at its expiration we'anticipate their return to the metropolis.

I then had recourse to your Ointment and Pills, which with the blessing of Providence, has completely healed my leg, and ma d e it as sound and perfect as ever."—Sold by all Druggists, and at Professor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London, S l7 N 7 MARCH 23, 1849. INSTALLATION ofMR. MACAULAY AS LORD RECTOR OF THE UNIVERSITY OF GLASGOW. We gave yesterday an outline of the interesting pro ceedings attendant on Mr. Macaulay's installation. We now present our readers with a detailed report. The ceremony excited much interest in Glasgow, and the demand for tickets of admission was, if not absolutely unprecedented, at least very brisk. The proceedings were fixed to commence at twelve o'clock, but long be fore that hour the venerable gates of the college were be sieged by eager applicants for admission, consisting prin cipally of the students and their friends. The College ball, in which the installation took place, is in nowise a remarkable structure. It is spacious, and there its merit begins and ends. The room is long and narrow ; along portion of one side runs a long elevated bench ; oppo site is a small pulpit and desk; and at either extremity, two galleries cross the hall at right angles. The floor is taken up with unbacked benches, inscribed with the names of the different classes in the University who have a right to occupy them. On the present occasion the students, togati and non-togati, marched into the hall from their respective lass-rooms, and the space appropriated for them was Teedil) crammed by as noisy a set of young gentlemen is can well be conceived. The galleries were set apart exclusively for ladies, and were well filled. The students had been admitted soon after eleven s'clock, and from that time until twelve the uproar was Incessant. Calls were continually made for cheers for popular, and groans for unpopular, personagcl. The names of the professors were mostly received with ac clamation. Then the ladies in the gallery were ho noured with three deafening cheers, and the name of the Earl of Eglintoun obtained a similar tribute. Three distinct rounds of groans were appropriated to the police (there had, we believe, been some slight altercation with these functionaries at the gates), and three cheers, and ultimately counter-cheers, were given for anybody or for nobody in particular. A few minutes before twelve o'clock the dignitaries of the college made their appearance. Mr. Macaulay, in his robes, as Lord Rector, marched behind the mace bearer; after him came the Reverend Principal, the Pro fessors, and some of the municipal dignitaries. Mr. Macaulay took the chair, supported on one hand by Principal Macfarlane, and on the other hand by Profes sor Ramsey. The other professors were ranged right and left, and amongst them sat Lord Belhaven, the Lord Advocate, and Radios Smith, Orr, and Stewart. The party was received with great cheering from the students. The Rev. PRINCIPAL opened the proceedings by a short Latin prayer. After which Professor RiMSET read the minute of election—also in Latin—by which Mr. Macaulay was declared to have been duly chosen Lord Rector. The Learned Gentle man then recited the formula of an oath, which Mr. elecaulay repeated after him, and which he signed. The LORD RECTOR then rose, and after bowing to the Principal, addressed the assemblage in the following words:—My first duty, gentlemen, is to return you my thanks for the high honour you have conferred on me.— (Cheers.) That honour, as you well know, was wholly unsolicited, and I can assure you it was wholly unex pected. I may add, that if I had been invited to become a candidate for your suffrages, I should have respect. fully declined the invitation. My predecessor, whom I am so happy as to be able to call my friend—(Cheers) —declared from this place last year, in language which well became him, that he would not have come forward to displace so eminent a statesman as Lord John Russell. I can with equal truth declare that I would not have come forward to displace so estimable a gentleman and so accomplished a man as Colonel Mere. But he telt last year that it was not for him, and I feel this year that it is not for me, to question the propriety of your decision, in a point on which, by the constitution of your body, you are the sole judges. I therefore accept with thank fulness the office to which I am called, fully purposing to use whatever powers belong to it with the single view of the promotion of the credit and the welfare of this university.—(Loud cheers.) Gentlemen, lam not using a mere phrase of course, when I say that the feelings with which I bear a part in this ceremony are such as I find it difficult to clothe in words.—(Hear, hear.) lam not surprised that, when that great master of eloquence, Edmund Burke, stood where I now stand, he faltered and remained mute. Doubtless the multitude of feeling and thoughts e hich at that moment rushed on his mind were such as even he found it difficult to arrange and to express. And it might well be so. For, to the reflecting mind, I doubt whether any spectacle be more affecting and more striking than that which a great historical place of education presents on the day of a great public solemnity.—(Hear, hear.) There is a something essentially affecting and interesting in the contrast between the venerable antiquity of the body, and the fresh and ardent youth of the great ma jority of thorn who compose it.—(Cheers.) Recollec tions and hopes crowd on the mind; the past and the future are brought near us at once in a manner in which no other ceremony links them together. Our thoughts wander back to the days when the foundations of this ancient building were laid, and forward to the times when those whom it is our office to teach and guide, will be the teachers and the guides of our posterity.— (Cheers.) And on the present occasion, we may, with peculiar propriety, give such thoughts free course, for it has so chanced that my magistracy has fallen in a great secular epoch. This is the four hundredth year of the existence of your university.— (Cheers.) At such jubilees as these—jubilees of which no man sees more than one—it is natural, it is good, that a body like this, which outlives all the transitory parts of which it is composed—a body of corporate existence and perpetual succession—should review its annals—should retrace its progress from infancy to maturity, and try to derive from the experience of generations which have passed away some lessons which may be profitable to generations yet unborn.—(Cheers.) And in this case, gentlemen, the retrospect is full of interest and import. ance. I doubt whether it would be possible to name a point of time since the Christian era more remarkable and more important to the highest interests of mankind than that at which this society began to exist.--(Hear, hear.) It was an era of a great destruction, but it was also an era of a great creation. Your society began to exist just at the moment when the Empire of the East was falling—that strange empire, which, dragging on a lingering existence through the long age of darkness, connected together two great ages of light—that empire which, adding itself nothing to our stores of knowledge —which, producing itself not one man eminent in litera • ture, science, or the arts—yet preserved, in the midst of barbarism, those monuments of Athenian genius which the highest minds still contemplate, and long will con tinue to contemplate with admiring deseair.—(Loud cheers.) But at that very moment, when the fanatical Moslem was sacking Constantinople —giving to the flames piles of Grecian eloquence—breaking to frag ments master-pieces of Grecian sculpture —at that mo ment, in a distant part of the world, a few humble German artizans, who little knew they were creating a power, compared with which that of the victorious Sultan was insignificant, were busied in cutting and set ting the first printing types.—(Loud cheering.) Your society began to exist just early enough to st e the last vestige of the Roman empire disappear, and just late enough to see the earliest printed book.—(Cheers.) At that period —a period of unrivalled interest in the history of letters—a man never to be mentioned without veneration by any lover of letters held the first place in Europe. The attachment which we feel for our Protestant faith must not present us in this place and on this day from doing justice to the memory of the founder of the University of Glasgow—the greatest of the revivers of learning—Pope Nicholas the Fiftb.—(llear.) Sprung from amongst the common people, he yet at an ealy age attracted the notice of the great. Ile studied much—he travelled far—he visited Britain, which was to his ca tive Tuscany what the vast settlements of America are to Britain now. He was the companion and the friend of those merchant princes of Florence who first en nobled trade by making it the ally of letters, science, and taste. It was he who, under the protection of the munificent and discerning Cosmo, collected and ar ranged the first public library of which modern Europe could boast.—(Cheers.) From obscurity and privacy your founder rose to a throne, but on the throne he never forgot the noble studies which had de• lighted him in obscurity and privacy. He was the centre figure of an illustrious troop, composed partly of the last greet scholars of Greece, and partly of the first great scholars of Italy. Need I repeat that bright bcad• roll ? There was Theodore Gaza and George of Trebizond— Bessarin and Silelfo—Marsilio Ficino and Poggio Brac ciolini. The great Pontiff of whom I speak founded the library of the Vatican, and enriched it with the most precious of the treasures snatched from the wreck of the Byzantine Empire. His agents were to be found in every part of the world—in the bazaars of the furthest East—in the monasteries of the furthest West— transcribing and purchasing those mouldy and worm eaten parchments, traced with words worthy of immortality.—(Loud cheers.) Under his patronage were prepared accurate Latin versions of the greatest works of the Greek philosophers and poets: but no de partment of knowledge owes more to him than history. By means of this great and good man, Western Europe first became acquainted with those two unrivalled models of historical style—the works of Herodotus and Thucy dides. It was to him that our ancestors first owed their knowledge of the lucid grace of Xenophon, and the manly good sense of Polybius.—(Loud cheers.) It was teen, gentlemen, in the midst of cares like these, that the attention of your founder was called to the intellectual wants of this region—a region now rich with cultivation —now abounding with wealth—a region of great ports t and cities—which sc nds forth, borno by mighty fle c e i t l s,l: incomparable fabrics, to parts of the world a arba g rous which was then a rude, a poor and ha geographer of the fifteenth century knew l f — w b bi re ion Hear hear.) on the verge of the known world.—( , d tract, on the verge of human civilization, aloiost a university, and he declared t Here, however, Nicholas the y m it t th th d is et d er n m iv i e n r e s r: ty to s t h o o u u e ld aand can b el ,n,ged conceiveto iv th e e rs a it a y m o e f p ß r o iv h i ) l g eg na es . over the Pontiff s face that a h na med, in juxtaposition, Bologna and G Insgow.— ss e possesstheUn pee sing smile brightened as e t r h it o le s m e [ studied. No part o f Euro p e owed more either to na- I (Cheers and laughter.) At Bolo g na, he himself had ure or to art. It was situated in a beautiful land—a coon ' try of corn-fields, and vineyards, lying beneath the t warm sun of the south. It was governe by the great [PRICE SD. house of Pentivoglio, which vied with the great house I of the Medicis—which enriched the seat of its power with temples and palaces, and munificently patronised letters and the arts. As to Glasgow, all the Pope could know of it was, that it was what he would have called an obscure and mean town, and he would, per haps, have added that it would sever become any thing else—it lay upon a soil so sterile, and under a sky so inclement—a soil and a sky which would have made an Italian shudder.—(A laugh.) But it is not upon the soil or the atmosphere that the greatness and prosperity of nations depend.—(Cheers.) Slavery and superstittion can make the country of the Campagna a land of beggars.—(Cheers.) But it is not beyond the power of human intelligence and energy, developed by civil and spiritual freedom, to change sterile rocks and pestilential marshes into busy . cities and smiling gar dens.—(Cheers.) Enlightened as your founder was, he little knew that be was himself the chief agent in a great revolution, moral and physical—political and re ligious—in a revolution which was destined to make the first last and the last first—in a revolution which was destined completely to invert the relative position of Glasgow and Bologna.—(Hear.) Ido not know that we can ;better employ a few moments than in tracing the progress of that revolution to which our country and your university owe so much. That review shall be very short ; indeed I cannot do better than pass rapidly from one centenary period to another. Look at the world one hundred years after the seal of Nicholas had been affixed to that instrument which called your university into existence. We find Europe and Scotland going through the agonies of that great revolution which we emphatically call the Reformation.—(Hear, hear.) Tne munificent patronage which Nicholas, and men like Nicholas, had bestowed on learning—and of which the creatien of this seat of education is not one of the least remarkable proofs—had produced an effect of which they never dreamed. Ignorance had been the talisman of their power, and ' that talisman they themselves had broken.—(Hear, hear.) They had called up knowledge as a handmaid to 'decorate superstition, and the event was such as it has always been, and always will be. Men's minds, refreshed by the best literature of Greece and Rome, grew too strong for the trammels of scholastic theology. I need not, of course, tell you what a great part the votaries of ancient learning, and of Greek learning in particular, the Humanists, as they were called, bore in the great struggle for spiritual freedom. They were the great leaders of the movement. Need I mention, in a Scottish University, the names of Knox, of Buchan nan, of Melville, and I may say, of Maitland, of Leth ington ? That, in truth, every great Reformer was a Humanist, and every great Humanist in the north of Europe was, according to the measure of his courage and uprightness, a Reformer.—(Cheers.) Their in fluence was not, as it might have been in early ages, confined to the highly educated classes to which they themselves belonged ; for printing had brought books within the reach of every ploughman and every artizan. Thus there was, from the Mediterranean to the Frozen Sea, a general agitation in the public mind of Europe ; and this agitation was nowhere greater and stronger than it was here. It was in the midst of martyrdoms and proscriptions—in the thick of the war of truth against power, that the first century of your university's existence closed.—(Cheers ) Pass an other century, and you are in the midsi of another revo lution. The war between Popery and Protestantism bad been terminated by the victory of Protestantism, but the result had given birth to a new war, that between Prelacy and Puritanism.—(Hear.) Each of the hostile religious sects became allied to, intermingled with, confounded with, a political party. The monarchical element of the constitution was most warmly espoused by,the Prelatist, the popular element of the constitution was regarded with especial fondness by the Puritan. Then an appeal to the sword took place. Puritanism triumphed, but it was soon divided against itself. Independents and Re publicans ranged themselves on one side, Presbyterians and Limited-Monarchy men embraced the other. It was at the very darkest moment of that dark time, in the midst of battles, sieges, and executions, when all Europe was still standing aghast at the recent spectacle of a British King standing before the judgment-seat, and laying his neck upon a block—it was when the mangled remains of the Duke cf Himilton had just been laid in the tomb of his ancestors — it was when the head of Montrose had just been placed over the Tolbooth of Edinburgh—that the second century of your university's existence terminated.—(Hear, hear.) Another hundred years, and we have at length reached the commencement of happier days. The price with which our civil and religious liberties had been paid was a fearful price; but these liberties had been actually bought—that price ,had been actually paid. The last British rebellion was over—the last battle had been fought on British ground—the last black scaffold had been set up on Tower-hill. The evil days were over, and a bright and tranquil century a century of toleration —of domestic peace a century of temperate freedom and of equal justice was begin ning. That century closes this year; and when we look back on it, and compare it with any equally long period in the history of any other great nation, we shall find abundant cause for gratitude to-the Giver of all Good. —(Hear, hear.) And nowhere, gentlemen, s h ou ld th at feeling be stronger than here; for ever the whole king dom I doubt whether there be any region which has shared so largely in the blessing of that progress as has Clydesdale.—(Cheers.) And your University has par taken in the prosperity of your city and your neighbour hood. The same tranquillity and security which have been propitious to the industry of the merchant and of the manufacturer, have been no less propitious to the indus try of the scholar. To the last century belong not all, but the greater part of those names which constitute the boast of the University. Time would fail me were I to recount every one of the eminent men who, within that period, have taught or heard wisdom within these ancient walls. There were natural philosophers, moral philosophers, metaphysicians, jurists, philo logists, poets. There were Simpson and Miller, Young and Reid, Stewart and Black, whose discoveries consti tuted an era in chemical science. Adam Smith, whose doctrines constituted an era in polical science, and Jas. Watt—(Loud cheers)—who, perhaps, did more than any man since Bacon wrote the New Atlantis, to accomplish the glorious prophecy contained in that wonderful volume.—(Loud cheers.) I may add another name—a final name—that of Thomas Campbell.—(Cheers.) I was one of those who not l ong ago f o ll owe d hi s cof fi n to ' the grave, in that illustrious transept where the ashes of Chaucer, of Spenser, and of Dryden are laid.—(Hear, hear, and sensation.) I will not carry the enumeration further. I,think I have said enough to justify a boast that Glasgow now need fear no comparison even with Bologna.—(Hear and a laugh.) Another century is now about to commence—it is about to commerce, as many well tell you, under melancholy auspices—but from me you must expect no such gloomy prognostica tions. I have heard them too long and too constantly to sbtea t scared byy country, t ry , Since a v fi e r s b t e e I n began seein g t o n o o b t s h e irnvge tbuthe growth, e erso and Butthe hearing more of and nothing thelonger but e hcontemplate our institutions, the more firm becomes myconviction that they are sound at heart, and that they have nothing of age —save its dignity.— (Cheers.) Their strength is still the strength of youth. We still see them standing ma jestic and immovable while dynasties and polities lie in heaps of ruin around.—(Cheers.) The hurricane which has recently overthrown so much which was great, and which seemed durable, has only proved their solidity, and I see no reason to doubt that by pursuing a good, and wise, and temperate policy—a policy of which the principle shall be to preserve what is good, by reforming in time what is evil—(Cheers)—that our institutions may descend, unimpaired, to a late posterity; while, un der the shade of these political institutions, our educa tional institutions may long continue to flourish. I trust, then. that, during the next hundred years, and even utter that time, that this celebrated school of learn ing will continue to deserve well of our country and of mankind. I trust that the installation of 1949 will be attended by an even larger assemblage of students than that which I have now the pleasure to see.—(Cheers.) It is possible that your desendants may not sit where you sit to-day. It is possible that these venerable walls may then have disappeared. It is possible that my successor may speak to your successors in a more stately edifice, which will be admired even amid the splendid buildings of the Glasgow of that day, as a fine specimen of the architecture which flourished in Eng land in the times of good Queen Victoria ; that though the site of your institution may have changed—though the walls of your institution may have changed, the spirit of your institution, I trust, will be ethe same. —(Hear, hear.) My successor will, I hope, tell your successors that the fifth century of the University has been not less glorious than the fourth, and he will, perhaps, point, in proof of that mastersas- as sertion, to a long list of eminent men—to: great t our of the severer sciences, of ancient learning, the native eloquence—the ornaments of the se n ate,ve pul pit, and the bar. He will, I hope anidhbe le h,fneoeulrhitmhe self' bound in justice to mentionw who highse now names of some of my young friends And he will, I hope, be listen ing to me.—(Great cheering.) ei able gxntoo lb t sl o ei naodrtdhetmh selfisha w t e t orhebai not ;t i. s g ed wb fe ie r b an b y e eously and generously employed - talent in t o b r d d e t e ba r tanbs t dee o yd promotet werehatl tourc learning rg t n h i the good g good of the s l t s i e b e n e r d: — t t y h t a c b g e e s i m i r n p s i g t r e e b e i o g d f man t s physical,an el over tyrants, andth e moral, t m s e p n a e e t c e e i r e i o s a o l f wo th r e ld ir —that they were employed for the de mand e s forof allth e d d i e v f i e n n e c ea and d f virtue human and a order laws.—(Loud — ( cheers.) . ene mies e I have given utterance, gentlemen, to a part, and part only, of the feelings of which, on this solemn occasion, my f in to o l r e d ra er tion tPo° a s n e ll x9 mind is full.

Gentleman resumed his seat amid loud and long-con tinued applause.) The Rev. PRINCIPAL then pronounced a short Latin benediction, anti the proceedings terminated. The appointment, by Government, of Mr. Froude, whose book ha attained such an enviable notoriety, to the headship of a college in Hobart Town, i s sa i d to have been cancelled. The preliminary proceedings said to have been taken to deprive him of hi s f e ll owsh i p i n Exeter College have been anticipated by his resignation, thus becoming a " fugitive from discipline." • SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

L YCEUM THEATRE. Last evening one of those sparkling little pieces for the production of which the Vestris management is so remarkable, was represented at this elegant theatre with the most decided success. It is entitled Hold your Tongue. The plot rests on the indiscretion of Lady Ryder (Miss 11. Gilbert), who is fresh from the country, and who ventures to go to a masquerade unknown to her husband (Mr. Selby). Here, without any ill intentions, she contrives to make a kind of assignation with Capt. Vernon (Mr. Parselle), who, in the dress of of a magician, has assisted her while fainting. This captain is a harmless personage, but one Lord Lurewell (Mr. Mathews), who is a sort of Lovlace, hearing of the adventure, boldly introduces himself to the lady by declaring that he is the magician. Ile meets his match in her confidential friend, Mrs. Lovejoy (Madame Vestris), one of those gay widows endowed with a good heart and a keen perception of the world, who are so frequent in the old comedies. Mrs. Lovejoy soon perceives that Captain Vernon, whom she loves, is the real magi cian, and she relieves her friend from all the embarrassment of her situation, by declaring that she herself was the lady who made the assigna tion, and bestowing her hand upon the Captain. This outline of the plot will give a very faint notion of the ingenuity with which the details of the intrigue are managed. The dialogue is elegant and pointed—just what is required for this class of drama—and does great credit to the author, Mr. Planch6. Of the acting of Mr. C. Mathews and Madame Vestris it is impossible to speak too highly, and the talented author is indeed fortunate that he has had the services of two such ac• complished artists to sustain the leading parts. We must also notice the performance of a very talented young actress—Miss J. Coleman—who sustained the part of Slipper, a lady's maid, to admiration; there was a vivacity and a pertness about this young lady's acting that was exceedingly amusing. Miss 11. Gilbert ac quitted herself with her usual ability. Mr. Selby and Mr. Parselle were each in their respective parts excel lent. Altogether it is one of the most successful hits of the season. The dresses were beautiful, and the stage appointments, it is needless to say, were appropriate. The piece was given out for repetition every evening amidst the appl ause o f a crow d e d an d fashionable audience. MR. HUDSON AND THE YORK, NEIVCASTLN, AND BERWICK RAILWAY COMPANY.-We are informed, on what we believe to be the most undoubted authority, that the committee which was appointed at the last half yearly meeting to inquire into the purchase of the shares of the Great North of England Railway by this com pany have completed their inquiry, and come to the conclusion that Mr. Hudson is entirely guiltless of the charges which have been so unsparingly made against him with regard to that purchase. We are informed, however, that there was a mistake of 2,5001, in the amount paid to Mr. Hudson for the shares sold by him, owing to the parties who were employed to calculate what that gentleman ought to receive having added, in stead of subtracted, the rebate of interest on the prin cipal sum; but there is no reason to suppose that Mr. Hudson was at all aware of the mistake having been made until after his attention was called to the particular circumstances attending the sale by what occurred at the meeting at which the committee of shareholders was appointed. ST. STEPHEN'S, WALlRROOK.—Yesterday a vestry of this parish was held, for the purpose of nominating trustees of the legal estate of the parish, in the room of Mr. Alderman Gibbs. The Rev. Dr. Cruly presided, and Mr. Rock proposed the following gentlemen as trustees:—The Rev. Dr. Croly, Mr. Roger Cunliffe, Mr. Benjamin Wilson, Mr. W.
