A special general meeting of the proprietors of this railway was held this afternoon at the Company's Office, Waterloo station— Mr. Chaplin, the chairman of the company preicling--for the purpose of again taking into consideration, and of approving or disapproving a bill now before Parliament entitled " An Act for authorising the execution of works by the company for regulating their capital, and for of her purposes." And further for consider ing the provisions of a bill now before Parliament for making a railway from the Manor-street terminus of the authorised Westminster terminus railway, wherein cer tain powers aro intended to be conferred on the com pany. It will be recollected that about a month since a meeting of the proprietors was held relative to the first portion of this notice, (the object of the act amongst others beim! to empower the directors to extend their line from Yeovil or Dorchester to Exeter). When the shareholders present expressed themselves strongly against the proposed extension, and the result of tie poll beim -, in their favour, it was thought neces sary and desirable by the directors this second meeting should be held, in the hope the shareholders, on re considering the sufject, would assent to the bill. The SEC:RTARY (Mr. L. Crombie) having read the notice convening the meeting and the directors' report, and the Solicitor the heads of the two bills, The CHAIRMAN said he appealed to the meeting with confidence to approve of this bill. After alluding to the meetings tha, had already been held, with reference to this question, he hoped that harmony would exist, so es sential to the crosp,rity of the company, and moved a re solution in conformity with the notice convening the meeting. Mr. LACY seconded the motion, Mr. HELPS objected to the resolution, as compre hending too much. It should be divided and put to the meeti❑g separately under its various heads. Mr. TITS, M.P., suggested that, instead of discussing the question, the chaTman should declare the number of proxies the board had received in favour of the bill ; for, after• all, the question must be decided by numbers. The Chairman said it was not usual to pursue such a course, but if it was the wish of the meeting he would do so. Mr. Sergeant GAZELEE objected, because the proxies had not yet been examined. Mr. HELPS condemned the holding a second Wham cliffs order during the same session of Parliament for one object, and proceeded to defend his conduct and that of Mr. Dickinson in opposing the extension clauses of the hill. He moved as an amend ment :—" That this meeting protests against any at tempt to reverse the decision of the meeting held, in pursuance of the Wharncliffe standing order, on the 31st day of May last ; considering that the Wharncliffe standing order contemplates the holding of only one meeting, and that the holding of a second meeting, on the same bill, in the same session of Parlia ment, and with a view to reverse the decision of the only meeting contemplated by the Wharncliffe standing order, is contrary to the letter, spirit, and meaning of that standing order, and subversive of the security which it is calculated to give to all property invested in joint-stock undertakings." Dr. MAYO seconded the amendment, and added that Mr. Baron Parke, in a conversation with him at the Athenaeum Club, deprecated the conduct of the directors in holding the second meeting as unjust and unheard of. General AITCHISON suggested to the meeting th e neces sity of unanimity in their proceedings, and that it would be better to support the directors. LLEFT SITTING.] LLOYD'S SELIPPING-(THIS DAY.)

This meeting passed off altogether quite as satisfactorily as coul d be ex p ected, especially consider ing that commercial c oncerns in the district have been shaken to an extent which has not been paralleled for the last quarter of a century at least. There were in dications of a returning healthy tone, and a more cheer ' ful feeling was evinced to-day. z-.~<f- LAW" /NTELITGENO.P..-(TILTS DAY). (BE-forc. , . file Lords J ,, ustices of Appeal.)

This was a p etition presented by parties who are the purchasers of Tart of ?,and in Worcestershire, which had been conveyed to Mr. O'Connor, during the existence of the scheme for the fo:.nnation of the National Land Com• parry, and the object of the petition was, that by the order of the Corjt Vac) official manager of the National Land Company inight be ordered to convey the estate to the petitione rs in the place of Mr. O'Connor. The Lord istice Turner inquired whether a con.- mitteo had been appointed of the person and estate of the lunatic I The counsel for the petitioner stated that no such ap pointment hal taken place, and that such was the pre carious state of Mr. O'Connor's health that it was very doubtful if ever, a committee would be appointed. Their lords'aips made the order as prayed, and directed the costs to be paid out of the estate of the National Larad Company, and not out of the private estate of Mr, O'Connor, the lunatic. ROLLS COURT. SMITH V. ARMSTRONG.-JUDGMENT. The lraAer of the Rolls gave judgment this morning in this case, which came before him a short time since upon motion, and also on the certificate of the chief c'erk. Tlie question in the case was what were the intentions of the testator in the cause, Mr. Jas. Arm strong, when he used the following words in his will : " I forgive my nephew, Jacob Appleford, the debt of 2,0001., money lent him ; and I also forgive him the principal sum of 2501., for which I held two bills from him." The testator had been in partnership with the plaintiff, Smith, and upon his retiring his nephew, Jacob Appleford, joined the firm, to whom the testator lent 7,0001., in order to enable them to carry on the concern with vigour. Of that 7,0001. 1,0001. was paid off, the debt due therefore to the estato of the testator was 6,0001. Smith's interest in the partnership was two-thirds, and Jacob Appleford's one-third ; and the principal question in the case was, whether as his nephew's debt to him from the partnership, according to his share in it being 2,0001., he intended to exonerate him from that debt or to make him an absolute gift of 2,000/, His Honour was of opinion that the words of the will made the 2,0001. an absolute gift, which the testator could not recall, and that his intention was that his nephew should be excused from paying his part of the 6,0001. The certificate, therefore, of the Chief Clerk must be affirmed, and a decree made to that effect, without costs. (Before Vice-Chancellor Wood.) RIDER V. WOOD.--JUDGMENT. His honour gate judgment in this case, in which the principal question was whether a decree of copyhold was good. The court held that it was, and decreed ac cordingly. MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. The receipts of English wheat up to our market this week coastwise and by land carriage, have been but moderate. Fresh up to-day tho supply was small, and the show of samples was limited. For all kinds we had a steady de mand, at prices fully equal to those of Monday. The imports of foreign wheat have been only 4,550 qrs. Good heavy samples realised full quotations. Inferior qualities moved off slowly on former terms. In floating cargoes a steady business was doing. Both English and foreign barley sold at full currencies. Malt changed hands to a moderate extent, at full quota tions. Large supplies of foreign oats, 39,080 quarters, having come to hand, the oat trade was dull, and damp parcels were lower to purchase. Beans, peas, and flour were lied at full prices.

DESPATCHES FROM - REA R-A DMIRAL P ENAUD. The 3foniteur of y€W.erday Fublishes the following correspondence : "The Minister of Marine has received the following despatches from Rear-Admiral Penauti, commander of the squadron in the Baltic : " On board the T.;urville,, off Cronstadt, June 30. " Sir,—Yesterday a steamer left Cronstadt with a flag of truce ; it steered for the allied fleet anchored in the pas sage south of the Tolboukin. As soon as it came near the squadron anchored north of Cronstadt,. a boat from the Duke of Wellington pulled alongside, and brought a Rus sian officer on board the English Admiral's ship. A few moments afterwards Admiral Dundas came on board the Tourville, to communicate to 1323 the despatch he had re ceived, informing me that he had thought it was addressed to him personally, but that it concerned the vessels of both nations. " 'ln this despatch, a copy of which I have the honour to enclose to your Excellency, the Minister of War of the Emperor of Russia declares that, to prevent the misunder standings to which the use made of flags of truce by the English navy might give rise, the vessels of the allied squadrons will only be allowed to communicate with the Russian authorities in the Baltic on three pointe—namely, Cronstadt, Sweaborg, and Revel. " ' The commander cf the English squadron havino , asked me what I thought of the c on t en t s o f thi s d espatc h , ° I replied that, first of all, it seemed to me that the Minis ter of War at St. Petersburg ought to have mentioned when the English abused a flag of true.) as that is the pre text made use of by the Russian Government to limit and restrict the communication hitherto iu see between the belligerent Powers. I addled that the measure notified might give rise to very serious inconveniences, and that it might be feared that it might increase the evils of war ; that, at all events, I thought it advisable to make the Russian Government understand that we threw upon it the whole responsibility of any evils that might arise there from. " This morning I went on board tho Duke of Welling ton, to concert with Admiral Dundas the reply that should be sent. That officer sent me a draught of a reply in the afternoon, which I approved by a letter, of which I also sand a copy to your Excellency. In the evening Admiral Dundas sent the reply to Croustadt under a flag of truce. " r I am, &c., " Adiairal PENAUD.' " T :e following is a translation of the letter addressed to Admiral Dundas by the Russian Minister of War : " St. Petersburg, June 16 (Z 8). " Sir,—With a view to preventing misunderstandings to which the use of flags of truce made by the English might give rise, I am charged by the Imperial government to inform you of the resolution it has adopted regarding communications which the Anglo-French fleet in the Bal tic may think to address to us. " Flags of truce will only 1)3 received on three points —namely, Cronstadt, Sweaborg, and Revel. " Vessels bearing a flag of truc3 must hoist a white flag of large dimensions, and cast anchor beyond long range, and wait until a boat goes alongside to receive a written message from them. " I must inform you, M. l'Admiral, that the Imperial Government has resolved not to recognise a flag of truce on any other point than those abovementioned or without the strict adhesion to the rules herein laid down. " I shall feel much obliged to you to make me acquainted with the regulations you may think fit to establish on your side as regards the communications we may think it advis able to send, under flag of truce, to the allied squadrons. "`I am, &c., " Prince BASILE DOLGOROUKI. " Minister of War.' "To the above Admiral Dundas sent the following reply : '" To his Excellency Prince Dolgorouki, Minister of War of his Majesty the Emperor of Russia. " On board her Majesty's ship Duke of Wellington, at anchor five miles N.N.E. of Tolbonkin Lighthouse, June 30. " Sir,--I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of the letter you addressed to me under date of the 28th inst., to inform me that, with a view to prevent any mis understanding with regard to the use hitherto made by the British navy of flags of truce, the Government of his Ma jesty the Emperor of Russia has thought fit to assign cer tain limits to communications of this description which the allied squadrons of France and England might find it advisable to address to it. " You also ask me to make it known to you what re gulations I may think it necessary to establish for the re ceipt of similar communications which tho Russian Go vernment may have to make to the allied fleets. " I take the liberty of informing you that lam ignor ant of the circumstances with respect to the conduct of my officers which may have given rise to restriction of communications by flags of truce as hitherto practised in the present war. lam perfectly aware that it is custom. ary to hoist a white flag of sufficient size, and I also admit the necessity of not approaching within range of the guns of a fortress without permission, or nearer any other point than may be necessary to attract attention; but the time and place where such communications, under a flag of truce, may be thought indispensable depend upon the cir cumstances of each individual case. I admit, without reserve, that in most cases it is more suitable to send a flag of truce to a spot where it is likely to meet with an officer of rank; and that, moreover, no advantage should be taken of such suspension of hostilities to accomplish, without danger, acts which could not have been done dur ing actual hostilities.- " By informing me that on the whole extens of the Russian territory from Tornea to Libau flags of truce are limited to the three points you have mentioned, you vir tually increase the evils of war, and deprive both parties of those means of correspondence necessary even beta een enemies. slaps. • Churchill to meet it, :mid am greatly disappinte find that the bearer of try brings in letters from Tcrki:gt prisoners.

We cdvance, and the dawn was just breaking as we came upon about 200 of our regulars and about 106 Bashi-Bazonks—the latter a good 'deal in advance, cr owning the rider; of an undulating, uneven cauntry. inquire tlay= where abouts of the Russian camp, and ride further OD to f a h., a peep. While thus reconnoitring I observe in the stiii imperfect light a large mass of cavalry appareany ad vancing, so we quietly retire on our pickets. After this body has disappeared for a time, I obseree it closer, evidently advancing, and at a further distance two other regiments on the right and left, advancing in support. Our small handful of ill armed ragged regulars com mence a retreat at a trot and canter. The enemy sinks out of sight in a valley, presently emerges within rifle shot, and comes on at full charge. Oar Bashis yell, firo their pistols, and scamper off; our regulars follow t seir example, and bolt like a flack of sheep. The R-us clans come on at a killing pace, and come up with us just as we plunge down a hill strewn with rocks. The crash of a volley of carbines, the rattle of hoofs, the blinding mud flung into my face from the hoofs of the panic-stricken cavalry, gave me a taste of the exciteraent of war, but in its most disagreeable form. Our fel owl were soon overtaken, and when the Russians had eh seed us to nearly within the range of our guns the read pre sented melancholy traces of the thrashing we bad go t, in the dead and dying, and clothes and accoutrermants, strewn along it. Some of the cuts received from the Russian sabres were perfectly frightful ; the Bashi-Bazouks suffereq the most. Our outposts have not yet ventured again so near those of the enemy. Our cavalry are armed with sabres little longer than carving knives, and carbines of the most antiquated flint and steel pattern. With these arms it is hot surprising that they should be no match. for the well-armed and well-mounted Muscovites. The Russian cavalry retreat in good order, followed by the Bashi-Bnzouks, who took heart of grace, and tried to harrass and frighten them by yelling, flourishing their spears, and firing at a very safe distance. FRIDAY, JUNE 15. _ _ This day passes very tranquilly; no news of import ance from the outposts. The Mussulreans are preparing for the rejoicing of the Bairam.

The victim was Mr. Benjamin Cheney, a ft spectable miller and farmer, of Bothwell, upwards of 80 years of age. About noon on Friday last he left home for the purpose of attending Kettering market, as was his custom, on foot, and shortly after he was found by two women, dead, and weltering in his blood, near a style on the footpath leading to Kettering, at about half-a-mile distance from Bothwell. His pockets were found unbuttoned, and some gold and silver which lie ' bad taken with him wen.) missing, but two cheques for 201. each were still on his person. From a surgical ex amination it appeared that the old man had been killed by violent blows on the back of the head with some heavy and sharp instrument like an axe or hatchet. A young man named Isaac Pinnock (a cripple, of bad character) was immediately arrested upon suspicion. From the evidence given before Mr. Marshal, the coroner, on Saturday, a verdict of Wilful Murder was returned. A hatchet was found which had blood and grey hairs at tached to it, and was proved to belong to Pinnock. It also appeared that Pinnock had quarrelled with the de ceased some time ago. PUBLIC PETITIONS.—The 53n report, including 1,591 petitions for the abolition of church-rates, signed by 149,031 persons; 921 in favour of the Marriage Law Amendment Dill, signed by 75,513 persons; 1,691 for the repeal of the Maynooth College Act, signed by 309,88 8 persons ; 477 against the Scottish Education Bill, signed by 33,471 persons ; 66 for prohibiting the sale of alco holic drinks, signed by 3,453 persons ; 519 for prohibiting their sale on Sundays, signed by 134,175 pe rsons ; a 40 for a restoration of Poland, signed 139 8,361 persona, " ' I regret that when such a notification was made to me no fact was mentioned which might have led me to make an inquiry into the conduct of those accused, and I am quite ready to institute an inquiry into the conduct of any officer pointed out to me as having violated a flag of truce. " As regards communications that may be sent -to me, I refer you to the conditions you yon rselves have made, either to approach or display a flag of truce ; a flag of truce will be received by the nearest vessel, and sent, as the case may be, to the senior officer, and I ask no other security than that which I may reasonably expect from the good faith and honour of the officers to whom you may think fit to trust such sorts of communications. " `I have communicated your letter to Rear• Admiral Penand, Commander-in-Chief of the French squadron in the Baltic. He perfectly approves the observations I have the honour to make to you as regards the restrictions you wish to impose upon communications we may have occasion to address to the Russian authorities ; and Admiral Penaud and myself think it right to point out the serious inconve niences and even evils which may be the consequence, the whole responsibility of which must fall upon those who have prevented the means of communication when such evils might have been avoided. " ' Admiral DUNDAS.' "The following letter was addressed by Admira Penaud to AdmirAl Dundas " ' On board His Imperial Majesty's ship Tourville, Juno 30. ... . . .. _ .. " `Monsieur frilly approve the letter you purpose addressing to the Minister of War at St. Peters burg, in reply to that in which he informs you of the re strictions which his Government wishes to place upon flags of truce for the future between vessels of the Anglo-French fleet and the Russian authorities. " We could not, in fact, give our consent to exceptional measures, beyond the customary usages of wrr, the execu tion of which may have unhappy consequences, and espe cially when it is given to be understood as a motive of the proposition that the English have made abuse of a flag of truce.—l am, Rear-Adrc iral PENAUD, " Commander-ia-Chief of the Baltic Squadron.' " The Momitcur also publishes a despatch from Vice- Admiral Bruat, dated on board the Montebello, 25th of June, stating that after the pillage of the Kertch Museum by the Tartar population, and by marauders of the three armies, more especially by Turks, some urns and basso•relievors bad been sent on board the Pomono by the Commander of the Phlegeten. Admiral Bruat requests instructions as to what he is to do with these objects, which are of little value. The chief ob jects of antiquity and the medals had already been sent long since to St. Petersburg, end the Admiral states that he does not think science has much to regret in the damage done to the Kertch Museum—a damage natu rally exaggerated by the Russian journals. THE TURKISH ARMY IW ASIA. K.A.RS, Just 8. This morning General Williams, with his staff, enters the garrison. His advent appears to be worth an army, as the men have immense confidence in him, knowing how well he has fought their battles and fed them, in spite of peculating pashas, who have grown rich on their misery. Young Captain Teesdale, 11. A., his personal Aide-de-Camp, accompanies him, a well-known face too, for during a long and rigorous winter he resided in the garrison of Kars, and with a judgment quite beyond his years, assisted in getting in provisions, quartering the troops, and protecting them from their worthless officers. Within the last few months the troops have been hard at work throwing up fortifications under the able direc tion of Colonel Lake, Madras Engineers. The place has now quite a different aspect from last year ; it is a most formidable intrenched camp, and, thanks to the un wearied exertions of General Williams, it is well provi sioned. SATURDAY, JUNE 9. The Constantinople post arrives, and with it the ac count of the taking of Kertch ; so we fire a salute and take care to tell all the troops of the good news. Daring the forenoon our scouts come in with the in telligence that the Russians are in full march in our di rection. We are ready, but no enemy is yet visible. The Baron Schwartzenburg, the model of a cavalry officer, comes in and reports that the enemy are en camped within five leagues. He reckons them at 20,000. The soldiers sleep at their posts, and sentinels are care fully posted in double lines round the works. SUNDAY, JUNE 10. A large force of Russians has crossed the Karschai. To-day there is a great rising of the inhabitant s of the town ; the chiefs of quarters visit General Williams and ask for arms. They are encouraged, and a largest force is is raised and muskets and ammunition Many, perhaps most, of these volunteers are armedcii ith their own home-made rifles, much batteries.

Zohrab and Rennison, interpreters. It is astonishing how the Turks confide in the energy of Englishmen in the hour of danger. MONDAY, JUNE 11, We are all in the saddle at 3 a.m., each engaged i. his respective duties. Our out posts send word that the enemy has advanced to Zlinkeni, three hours from Kars. A corps of 5,000 have marched towards Ardahan, to cut off our communications with Batoum. A flag of truce comes in. I go with Captain Teesdale and Mr. The whole population is seen dressed in the gayest costumes, each man saluting his neighbour on the oc casion of the Bairam. About 7 o'clock a.m. a horseman arrives from the outposts, " bloody with spurring, fiery red with haste.'! He reports that the Rus• sians have struck their tents, and are advancing. The alarm is raised, and the soldiers march to their posts. The gaily-dressed citizens buckle on their cart. ridge pouches and shoulder their muskets, while the women crowd on the housetops, wringing their hands and crying "Arran, aman!" In a very short time each man is at his post, when, looking out from the battle ments, we see the dark masses of the enemy steadily ad vancing over a broad plain of rich meadow land, covered with brilliant coloured flowers. As they approach a beautiful and living panorama is before us ; the enemy throw out their Cossack and Georgian skirmishers, con sisting of irregular cavalry. These are met by our own Bashi-Bazouks, and a series of tournaments occur in the grassy space intervening between the masses of advanc ing troops and the dark lines of breastworks. Two or three regiments of cavalry, regular and irregular, now advance from the Russian lines, and, after a trot of a mile or two, charge our retreating squadrons of cavalry. The rout of the latter is complete, but the Bashis fight admirably while retiring, when puffs of dense white smoke issue from the Karadagh and Hafiz Batteries, and the balls are seen to plough into the Russian masses. The enemy's guns are now brought up, but their balls glance harmlessly from the dense earthen embankments. The horsemen of both sides are mingled and rtill for the entrance, but the Cossacks fall under the deadly firs of the batteries, while the few on whom the great guns cannot play are singled out by our riflemen, or fall under the gallant charges of our irregulars. The attempt to rush into our works with the retreating cavalry has failed. After an hour's cannonading and skirmish ing the enemy retires, while this repulse raises the spirits of our garrison to a height of enthusi asm. The cunning Russians had chosen for their attack the very day, the first of the Bairam, and the very hour, about 9 a.m., when the Turks deliver themselves up to idleness and rejoicing, and when every thing in the shape of duty is neglected. Fortunately their propinquity for the last few days had kept us all in a constant state of vigilance. Our loss to-day has been trifling—perhaps 20, chiefly cavalry, while that of the enemy can scarcely have been less than 100. We are awaiting an attack to-night. SUNDAY, JUNE 17. Our inspection of the sentries to-night is highly satis factory ; everyman and officer is on the alert, and a large force is under arms all night. We learn tbat the attack ing force of yesterday was 25,000 men—a force certainly insufficient to take Kars. A spy tells us that another attack of a much inure serious description is arranged for to-morrow. We are all in high spirits, and quite ready for any amount of Muscovites. The enemy has retired to their old encampment. We learn that they brought three days' provisions with them yesterday. The Armenians of Van are said to be in a state of re volt, in consequence of the gross insults of the Pasha to Itheir bishop. A large number have crossed the Russian frontier. The reinforcements of Mehemed Cavakli Pasha are recalled, in consequence of the revolt of the Mcntefill Arabs near Bagdad. About 2,000 foot irregulars, first-rate riflemen, from the Luzi Mountains, are expected shortly to reinferce our garrison. ANOTHER, ATTEMPT TO ENCLOSE HAMPSTEAD-HEATH. A bill entitled "An Act to Facilitate Leases and Sales of Settled Estates" has passed the Lords, and stands this night for a second reading in the House of Commons. The object of this bill is ostensibly to en able tenants for life of settled estates to obtain powers of lease and sale. It is, of course, a public bill, and pro ceeds on the colourable ground that, while the expense of Parliamentary proceedings is so great, it is but rea sonable that tenants for life should be enabled to pro cure necessary powers from some more economical tri bunal, this tribunal being the Court of Chancery. On looking through the clauses of the bill one is eot at first sight at all inclined to quarrel with its provi sions, which read like those of auy similar act. Com mon sense, however, and common equity would sug gest that this bill must not be made a mere cloak for objectionable applications. Care must be taken—as this bill professes merely to deal with matters of form—that such petitions as would not upon equitable grounds have met with the assent of Parliament,still less those who have been rejected by Parliament, should be smuggled through the Court of Chancery. Nov', it but right that the members of the House of Commons should be informed that the bill for facilitating the "Leases and Sales of Settled Estates" is under another l name their old friend "a Bill for permitting the E f n r e u ; sure of Hampstead-heath." It is quits needless oli o of years past, not a ses the enclsure: for, during many _ h art of Sir T. sion has gone by without an effort on t id e p to go again into the arguments affecting the pcy have permitted M. Wilson to run some bill which wou p Mead-heath 1 • Jaye, in sitions for the enclosure of Ham- s Parliamentary nuisance as as great a .. nuisance, fact, become well-nigh a public one if the objeit through the two Houses of Legislature, The p itted it ct as the fact itself would be effect. It It has been whose interests would be most immediately by those sriielednttoto affected by the success of rT. M Wilson's immediately bill, which recognises the • desired could be car attempt that this of persons • necessity of intentions of the promoting the interests entitled under the settlement, is entirely Sir T. settlers. In a wor d , M. Wilson is desirous of presenting himself before the Court of Chancery, with -out having to argue against the grounds upon which his a pplic • a tions to Parliament have hitherto been rejected. parliament is thus made to delegate to the Court of Chancery powers which itself refuses to exercise. Another point well worthy of notice is, that the main cause of the defeat hitherto of Sir T. M. Wilson's attempts to enclose the Heath has been that the public had ample notice of his intention through the necessary publicity of a discussion in Parliament, Under this new arrange ment no such publicity would exist, and he woud be enabled 'tl quie yto smuggle through the Court of Chancery a measure which has been more than mice condemned by the judges, and over and over again rejected by Parliament. The express ground of the re jection has been that the will under which Sir T. M. Wilson enjoys the property contaips intrinsic evidence of the testator's intention that lie should not have the powers which he now seeks to obtain. Under these cir cumstances, even if the bill should be proved, such an one as should receive the assent of the Commons, it is, at least, but reasonable that all such applications as have already been rejected by Parliament should be excluded from its operation. We have done our duty in putting the members of the Lower House upon their guard ; it is for them to watch over the public interests, and to see that Hampstead-heath is not made the site of a new suburb by some speculative builder.-7istcs. n FUNERAL OF THE LATE MARQUIS OF THOMOND.— The mortal remains of this distinguished officer and deeply-lamented nobleman were deposited in the cata combs of St, Saviour's Church, Walcot, Bath, on Tues• day last, ~;.;, 20 50 50 100 100 20 50 20 25 92 628 i 1271 674 50 50 SC . 2,5 10 St. 20 50 50 12. 12. 10 543 ;
