Never, perhaps, since the establishment of this valu able department of the public service has so much acti vity prevailed in rendering it mechanically, officially, and genera ly convenient to the public. Although but a short period has elapsed since we last noticed the im provements which had been, and were about to be intro duced into the whole of the working system, still since that time we find others developing themselves of the greatest importance to the service, the public, and the revenue. To these we shall, in this notice, call the at tention of the public at large. First in the order of improvement in the establishment in St. Martin's le-Grand has been the introduction of a new system of assorting the correspondence, the effect of which has been very much to simplify and faci litate the duty. Next comes the out-door inspection of the men, by which all delays arising from any neglect or irregularities in the delivery of the letters " inwards" will be most effectually and promptly checked. Then the establishment of district offices, through the means of which the business of the outer branches will be local ised, and the facilities given to the public in consequence be of incalculable value, while the revenue will, of course, be materially benefited. But, in addition to these most advantageous advances in " the right direc tion," we have now to record others, of not less impor tance. The old tramway, underneath the "central hall," has been taken up, and a spacious subterranean pssage, constructed for communication from the north with the south sides of the chief office. It is in depth 7 feet, and of proportionate width, so that messengers en foot will be constantly employed in conveying the foreign and colonial correspondence separated from the inland department. In order to effect this change, several work men have been put on to bring out to the pillars on the south side of the hall the front windows of tho now called " London District Office." This department will nut any longer bear that name, both it and the. "Inland Office " being amalgamated throughout the whole mo dus operandi of the service. At the present time, the north side is devoted to two purpose , , the posting of letters and newspapers ; in future— that is to say, after the alterations are completed—the whole of that side of the ball will be appropriated to posting only. On theother side it is intended to construct an open office, similar to that of a banking establishment, with folding doors, which will he fitted up in the most convenient manner fur the public who have to pay for letters to those parts to which postage is required to be paid in advance. "Window" letters will also be received within this office, and thus the pubic will be materially served, as the alteration in the newspaper duty has caused a complete change in the work ing of that department, and afforded, necessarily, much more room for stamped and other correspondence. The hook post has much increased, and is so increasing daily, that the bulk now sent in this form requiresa much larger degree of accommodation than any other part of the ser vice did hitherto, while, at the same time, the reduction, in the rates of foreign and colonial letters and papers has extraordinarily swelled their numbers. The gigantic weighing•machine at the north end of the building is rapidly approaching completion, and a large body of men are now employed, both day and night, to effect other and still greater alterations, notice of which we shall furni:h from time to time. Before we conclude this brief notice, we wish to call t! e attention of the public to one most important sign of progrers i❑ the administration of this gigantic establish ment. Time was when the major part of the "rules and regulations" of the Post•otfice were only open to those actually and officially engaged in the service, or excluded chiefly from the public eye until they found their way, annually, into the then privileged " Post °nice Directory." Now the system is change i. Chained to the exhibition-board containing the addresses upon letters, the owners of which "cannot be found," is a " Postal Directory," furnishing every particular as to the departments which may be of public utiiity, and which is hung there for the inspection of all who think fit to examine its contents.—Morning Adve tiser. THE SEA SERPaNT AGAIN! The following is an extract from the log-book of the ship Princess, Captain A. $. N. Tremearne, in the L.aidon Docks, on the 15th inst., from China, viz. : " Tuesday, July 8, 1856. Latitude accurate, 34 deg. 56 min. S. ; longitude, accurate, 18 deg. 14 min. E. ; gentle breeze, fine weather. At 1 p.m. saw a very large fish, with a head like a walrus, and 12 ,ins similar to hose in a blaekfish, hut turned the contrary way ; the Lac:: was from 20 to 30 feet long, also a great length of lad. It is not improbable that this monster has been taken fur the great sea serpent. Fired, and hit it near the bead with rifle-ball. At 8 wind fresh and fine." We submit that the repeated accounts of seeing a marine monster, whatever be its correct name or kind, yet harmonizing in some leading descriptions, forbid ►onger doubt of some such creature existing, and we en c:th-e you a rough sketch (as this one appeared), signed by Captain Tremearne, who has been six years in our employ and is otherwise well known. His own private 104 contains a similar record, and we have interrogated others of the Princess's crew, who assert the fact of such appearance. Captain Tremearne states that Captain Morgan, a pas senger by the Princess, but who at St. Helena joined tho ship Senator, to command her to Liverpool, (where she is daily expected), also saw this monster, and can corro borate the statements. Until the 13th of October the Princess will be at London•dock jetty, loading for Me bourne, and natural ists or other scientific persons can there make further inquiries, provided they do not subject Captain Tre 'bourne to ,correspondence or interrupt ship's duties, which are urgent for her speedy departure.

In addition to this we are now in a position to inform our readers that an extensive commercial company has been formed, whose ships are to sail between this country and the East Indies. Th e first determination of the company, in which some of the principal commercial names of England are t o b e f oun d, is, that their vessels are to start from Milford Haven.—ne Welelortan. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. EAST SUFFOLK. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held on Tuesday at Haleswortb. The Right Hon. the Earl of Srradbroke presided. There was a foil attendance of shareholders. The CHAIRMAN read the report of the directors, which congratulated the meeting on Parliament having autho rised the construction of the lines from Lowestoft to Beccles, and from Yarmouth to Haeldiscoe, which, if amalgamated with the East Suffolk Railway, would be of great advantage to the three companies and the pub lic. The directors recommended this amalgamation and the acceptance of the offer made by Sir Morton Peto to extend the lease of the lines from 14 to 21 years, at 6 per cent, per annum ; to lay down a double line of rails from Yarmouth to Woodbridge ; and to increase the amount of security for the payment of the rent of the line from 50,0001. to 100,0001., to be deposited with Lord Stradbroke and Mr. J. H. Gurney, M. P. The report further stated that the works were proceeding satieacturily and with despatch. The report was adopted.. A special general meeting was then held for the pur pose of considering the above, which, after an explana tion from Sir M. Peto as to the cost of doubling the ines—of the arrangement he had made for paying the nterest of 6 per cent, from the Ist of July next, whe her the line be open for traffic or not—and for securing he efficient management of the working of the line, and ontinuance of the interest in case of his death, were unanimously adopted by the meeting. The proceedings concluded with votes of thanks to the Chairman, and to Sir M. Peto for the liberal manner in which he had treated the company. GLASGOW, DUMBARTON, AND HELENS- BURGH. The third ordinary meeting of this company was held on Wednesday at Glasgow ; Mr. Colin Campbell, jun., in the chair. The report was held as read. It requested the meeting to confirm anarrangement made with the Forth and Clyde Canal Company for an alteration of the original mode of crossing their property. All the land settlements bad been completed, though the sums paid were in excess of the ParliamentFy valuation. The progress of the works was reported by the engineer to be on the whole gratifying, and it was under consideration to open that part of the line between Dumbarton and Helensburgh next July. From the large monthlypayments to the contractorsand for land, the directors liad no alternative but to make another call on the shareholders. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said he had only to explain that the arrangement with the Forth and Clyde Canal Company was rendered ne cessary in order to raise the level of the line to that of the Edinburgh and Glasgow line. The only other part was in regard to the call. It was necessary to provide funds, and previous to the making of the call they had only 7,0001. at their credit. If any further explanation were required he should be happy to give it. Mr. W. BUCHANAN seconded the adoption of the re port, which was unanimously agreed to, and.the meeting broke up. NAMUR AND LIEGE, AND MOWS AND MANAGE. A special general meeting of this company was held yesterday at the London Tavern, for the purpose of ra tifying the provisional convention for leasing the Mons and Manage line to the Northern of France Railway Company for the remainder of the term of the concession, Captain Parry in the chair. Mr. MOATES, the London agent of the company, read the advertisement convening the meeting. The CHAIRMAN said they would probably remember, when last the directors had the pleasure of meeting them that upon the subject of leasing the line being dis cussed he then informed the meeting that two proposi tions had been received for that purpose. He also men tioned that it was his opinion if one of the propositions should be somewhat modified a successful and advanta geous negotiation might be the result. The directors also suggested that a committee of shareholders should be appointed to advise with them on the subject. Mr. roppe and himself were requested to coneinue the nego tiations with the Northern of France Railway Company, and he felt bound to allude to the straightforward and liberal manner in which they were met by the directors of that powerful company. The negotiations resulted in a provisional agreement which was signed on the 29th of Aug. last by Baron Rothschild, chairman of the com pany, the deputy chairman, and other directors on the part of the Northern of France Company, and by Mr. Blagden and himself on the part of the Mona and Ma. nage Company, whereby the railway was definitively leased for the remainder of the concession to the North ern of France Railway Company, subject to the ratifica tion of the same by the shareholders of both companies, and it was for that purpose they were now called together. The reasons that induced the board to recommend the measure he would state. There could be no doubt that the Mons and Manage Railway, for its length, might be considered one of 'the best lines inißelgium. Taking into account the cost of its works and plant, it was now pay ing a good dividend, and its prospects under the manage ment of the Northern of France Company were very good, and the line would, he had no doubt, amply repay that powerful company for the arrangement they had entered into. He was at the same time bound to state that he thought the bargain was equally advantageous to the shareholders of the company. They must bear in mind that their small line had to support an enormcui capital expenditure, of which 200,0001. consisted of Preferential capital, bearing 6 per cent. interest ; and that it being a small company they were weak, sod con sequently unable to obtain those local advantages in a foreign country which they had a right to expect. Their expenses of management were as great as those of a line double the length. They were also threatened by new concessions which the Belgian Government ap peared disposed to grant. One already granted would abstract a portion of their traffic. Tne outlay f a the renewal of the permanent way would have to be borne. The formation of companies to introduce British coal into Belgium and France would also have an adverse influence on their prospects. Taking all these matters into consideration, he would ask them whether it would have been wise of the board not to agree to the lease of the line, or prudent of the shareholders not to ratify it. Those reasons, he thought, amply justified the board in the steps they had taken. As a large shareholder be would give it his support, in which opinion he was joined by his colleagues at the board, as well as by the members of the committee of share holders. The principal points agreed upon in the con vention were as follows :-1. That the Northern of France Company were to take possession of the Mons and Manage line on the Ist of January, 1857. 2. That a guaranteed annual payment of 301. per share per annum on the 10,000 preference shares would be made, being equivalent to the 6 per cent. they now received. 3 That a clear net and final dividend of 14f. per share on the 26,595 ordinary shares of the company could be paid, being equivalent to 21. 16s. per cent. He should be happy to answer any questions on the su:)ject. Ictr. HERA2A.TH wished to know whether the divi- dends were to be paid in francs or English money, as that might make some difference. He hoped that they would be paid as early a possible after they were due. The CHAIRMAN stated that the payments would be in francs ; and that the payments by the Northern of France, in respect of the Namur and Liege line, were paid on the day they were due, and he had no doubt they would do RO in respect of the Mons and Manage line. He olncluJed by moving a formal resolution ratifying the honvention and authorising the directors to carry the same into effect. Mr. BLAGDEN seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. In reply io questions it was stated that the affairs of the company would have to be wound up, as there were certain liabilities in respect of contracts to be settled, and there were eartain assets to be realised in the shape of stores and surplus land which it was believed would more than cover the liabilities. Some of the liabilities that were to have been spread over five years would have to be met in one year, owing to the altered circum stances of the Company. The rolling stock would be handed over with the line to the Northern of France Company. After some observations from Mr. J. Field, Mr. S. Herapath, and Mr. Harrison, a cordial vote of thanks was passed unanimously to the committee of v.bare holders for their services to the company. Mr. S. HERAPATH wished to know when it was pro bable that the shareholders of the Northern of France Railway would ratify the convention. The CHAIRMAN believed a meeting of the Northern of France Company would be held in December next, when the question would be submitted for the approval of the shareholders. The proceedings then terminated with a cordial vote of thanks to Captain Parry, Mr. Poppe, and the other di- rectors of the company for their valuable services. GREAT WESTERN OF CANADA. It appears that the general meeting of shareholders in this company, held at Hamilton, Canada West, on the 11th inst., duly eleeted the directors named by the Enzlish shareholders, and passed a resolution declaring a dividend of 4 per cent. fur the half year on the ordi nary shares of the company. LEEDS, BRADFORD, AND HALIFAX JUNCTION. appears that the' traffic on the Gildersome branch of tuts line, the opening of which was announced in The Sun a few weeks ago, is likely to prove remunerative.

(Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.) THE HEMEL HEMPSTEAD AND WATFORD BANK. - - This was the first meeting. under the bankruptcy of Sic William Smith, banker, of Hemel Hempstead, and of Watford, The adjudication was made on the 26th August, on the petition of Mr. Charles Wilkinson, coal merchant, of Watford, who claims from the bankrupt a debt of 611. 9s, 9d., the balance due on his banking ac 50 - count. The bankrupt is described on the proceedings as L 6 l " William Smith, of Hemel Hempstead and of Watford, both in the county of Hertford, banker, trading under ' 1 the style or firm of 'Smith and Whittingstall,' and for- 271 merly carrying on the same business in partnership with . 1 . 2 Edmund Fearnley Whittingstall, since deceased." The 25 act of bankruptcy was the closing of the doors of the cb bark both at Hemel Hempstead and Watford. The bankrupt is also a solicitor. He had been in partnership dt. with Mr. Whittingstall from 1839 up to the ,death of A. Mr. Whittingstall, in March last. The bankrupt admits 53 that be then knew that the bank was not solvent, and 5 -41 says that he should have stopped earlier but for negotia tions which were going on w ith th e executors o f Mr. l(:)) Whittingstall, and with other banks, including the Bucks 10 and Oxon Bank. 50 Toe liabilities of the bank are estimated at between 15 60,0001. and 70,0001. Mr. Smith's assets will probably st, be about 10,0001. ; but the question is to be raised ?0 whether the solvent estate of the deceased partner can- St. not be made answerable for the liabilities of the firm up .3ts to the death of Mr. Whittingstall. 26 Proofs were taken to the amount of nearly 20,000/. ; 25 and the following creditors wer e a pp o i n t e d t ra d e as.ig- '". nees :—Mr. Shadrach Godwin, farmer, of Hemel Hemp -10 stead, and Mr. C. W. Moore, gentleman, of Watford. St. The allowance to the bankrupt was fixed at 71. 10s. In per week. St. Mr. Bagley said he appeared on behalf of the trustees so of the deceased partner; and as assignees had now been 10 chosen, he had to apply that separate accounts should 3t. be kept of the partnership debts and assets, and of those s t. of the bankrupt. St. Mr. Linklater, on behalf of the assignees, said that 8 1 . there could be no objection t o th a t. A separa t e accoun t it. should be kept of everything having reference to the firm of Smith and Whittingstall. A. question would e arise as to the liability of the estate of the deceased 50 partner, or rather as to that of the executors. The ail will of Mr. Whittingstall merely authorised 164 the executors to raise sufficient money for the St. purpose of discharging the liabilities of the 3 bank ; but the creditors contended that the executors 23 of Mr. Whittingstall had so interfered in the con tlt - duct and management of the bank, that they had either rendered themselves personally responsible, or bad made 20 the estate of Whittingstall still liable. Of course that 10 was a question of considerable nicety. At the death of iv Mr. Whittingstall, a very large sure was owing by the St. bank ;it was then clearly in a state of insolvency, but 25 the business was continued just as though Mr. Whit- 25 tingstall bad not died. Notes continued to be issued St. bearing his signature, and the executors interfered with 8/2F the managemeut of the bank. 10 His Honour observed that Smith had stated on a pri- 10 vate examination that the executors did not interfere in St. the general management of the bank, but only for the it. purpose of guaranteeing the payment of such loans as 50 were necessary to wind it up. 15 Mr. Linklater said they advanced money with refer- 100 ence to the affairs of the bank. He did not mean that 2f they interfered with Mr. Smith's management of the '0 bank, but they were there from day to day, and knew tO precisely what was done. What effect that would have upon the executors would probably be a question to be considered elsewhere. There were several creditors who were creditors of the bank at the time of the death of Mr. Whittingstall ; and as the bank affairs were carried on just the same as during his lifetime, their accounts were continued ; payments were made into the bank as usual ; in some instances the balance was increased, in some it was diminished ; and the question might arise whether, Mr. Vithittiegetall having died, the creditors had any right to resort to his estate for the balances then due, or whether the moneys paid out subseq'iently to his death were to be applied in discharge of the amounts then owing. Under these circumstances it would be fair that the proofs of the creditors should be admitted without prejudice to their claims against the estate of Whittingstall. It would be difficult in some cases to determine whether certain notes had been issued in the lifetime of Mr. Whittingstall, or since his death. They all bore date in his lifetime, many of them bore his sig nature, and the creditors were, of course, unable to say whether they were issued after his decease or before. If his Honour would permit that course to be adopted it would clear the way for a great many creditors who were desirous of proving. The Commissioner—l do not see that their proving against this estate will at all interfere with any remedy which they may have against the estate of Mr. Whit tingstall. At all events there is no harm in saying that their proofs here are without prejudice. There is the Celebrated case of "Devine v. Noble," which has settled that point. Mr. Murray (who appeared for Messrs. Currie, the bankers) said the only objection to their proving was, that if they got a dividend of 103. out of this estate they would only be entitled to other 1411'1. from the estate of Whittingstall ; whereas if they did not prove here, but went against the estate of Whittingstall in the first in stance, they would get 20s. out of that estate, and Mr. Smith's estate would be relieved to the extent of these claims. The Commissioner—That will be for their own con sideration. Mr. Murray—l don't see how their c3ming her!: with out prejudice can at all help them. I appear for several creditors of both classes, and I am only anxious that there should not he any misunderstanding. The CJinmi.4i,ioner suggested that the examination of Mr. Smith, taken at a private meeting a few days ago, should be read for the information of the creditors pre sent. Mr. Linklater read it. The bankrupt stated that there were executors appointed under Mr. Whatingstall's will, but he was the sole executor for the bank affsirs. There was no change outwardly to the world in the manage ment of the bank until the 14th of August last, when the bank suspended payment. He then owed the bank between 3,0001. and 4,0001. Messrs. Currie and Co. made two advances of 5,0001. each, to enable him to carry on the bank, taking security for one in mortgages, and for the other the guarantee of the executors. The Bucks and Oxon Bsnk also advanced 8,0001., which was covered by securities. He had not consulted the other executors abut those arrangements. They had. not taken any part in the management of the bank. The notes in circulation at the date of the stoppage amounted to 12,8751., and at the death of Mr. Whittingstall to 23,070/. About 10,0001. of these were issued in the lifetime of his partner ; some of which w ere s i gne d b y hi m, an d some t„ too by the witness. The execut ors mus t h ave k nown that too some of the notes were re-i ssue d a ft er M r. Whittin;- 120 stall's death, in Mr. Linklater said that this being so the creditors 20 would now be permitted to prove their debts against this esta'e, and their doing so would in no way prejudice 22 their claim against the estat e o f Whit t ingstall. 106 The Commissioner —You will require an account of too the spcific assets belonging to th e p ar t ners hip a t the 10 time of the death of Wnitti ngs t a ll — an accoun t o f the 20 subsequently acquired effects —and an account of the t o separate effects of Smith. 20 Mr. Linklater—As the bankrupt proposes to employ 200 Mr. Turquand to prepare his accounts, he will doubtless zu arrange everything in paper form. tro The ConiiiiissioCier—lt appears to me that the credi• 110' tors will have to be ranged under the following heads:— 1 0 creditors who never had any dea;iogs with the bank in 1-I ' ° Wbittingstall'a lifetime ; creditors in respect of debts 10 owing by the bank at the death of Whittingstall, upon which there have not been any payments 20 since, or which have been paid in part only by the 20 surviving partner ; creditors in respect of debts owing 5 at the death of Whittingstall, which have been increased 3; since by payments to or monies received by the surviv- 20 log partner, but on which no payments have been made, !. 0 distinguishing the amount due at the death of Whitting stall, and the amount of increase since his death ; 0 criditors who ;were such when Whitti ngs t a ll di e d, an d ` 3 ' 3 who continued their accounts with the surviving partner, in • by drawing and making payments as occasion required, tO so that between the dissolution of the partnership and 20 the bankruptcy of the surviving partner, they had drawn 16 froth the surviving partner various Aims, amounting in 10 some instances to more, in others less', than was due, 2n but yet remaining creditors by reason of their payments 20 having exceeded their drafts ; creditors who at 'Whit- 20 tingstall's death were debtors to the bank, but who like- 10 wise continued their acc oun t s w ith the su rv i ving p ar t ner I :, and by their subsequent dealings with him have turned 5 the balance in their favour. 21.) Mr. Turquand promised thatithe accounts should be made out on tbe principle indicated, and the further proceedings in the case were adjourned till the examin ation meeting.

In less than an hour I found relief, and my recovery was very rapid.
