Eight per cent. Preference Shares. The Company is prepared to receive Appiications for Preference Shares of 61. each, bearing Eight per Cent. interest, payable half yearly in London, Paris, or Franktot, at the option of the holders. A first instalment of 21 rer share will be payable on allotment, the second 21. on the 31st March next, and the remaining 21. on the 31st May next. The amount of these shares to be issued will not exceed .00,0001., being the amount required to open the Rue to Rudesheim, opposite to Bingen. Applications may, until the Bth March next, be made in the sub joined form to the Company's brokers, A. A. Iloghton, Esq.. 11, Angel-court, Throgmorton-street ; and Messrs. Bragg and Stock dale, 6, Throgmorton-street ; or to the secretary, at these offices. This issue of preference shares was unanimously approved at a meeting of English shareholders, held at Guildhall Coffte-house. on . the 14th February last. The effect will be to complete and open the line this spring, at a cost of lass than 13,0001. per mile ; and, as it is a continuation of the. prosperous Taunus Railway from Frankfort, and thence reaches a cenventent landing place opposite Bingen, at the point where the difficulties of the Rhine navigation begin to be most serWas. there can be no doubt as to its profitable traffic, or as 'to the security offered by the preference shareS., The Rhine Railway has obtained the concession and form , d its capital for extending Its line to Coblentz, and erecting a railway bridge across the Rhine at that city. This Will !flake the vierbaden Railway the direct route from Cologne to Frankfort, and it will thus become the connexion between the existing trunk lines of North and South slermany, when it is continued to Lahnstein. For the present the company has thought it best, under the circumst races of fin metal pressure, to limit its exertions to the first hiehly profitable section. The line is already completed to fifosbach, Schierstein, Niederwallwf, Eltville, and Erbech, and,the works on the remaining portion of the line are so far a Iv .inced as to leeve "no doubt of its prompt completion for the stun now sought to be raised.

Mr. Overand, addressing his lordship, said--In the case of Richard Rayne and John Cain, I have to ask your lordship to postpone the trial. There are certain articles it is necessary should be discovered, and up to this time these have not been discovered. They relitte to a certain branch cf the evidence ; and only recently the police have received information relating to certai,i other articles which it is important should be investis. gated. • - Vie lordship looked at the affidavit, and, after hear ing counsel, ordered the trial to be pcstponed. It is understood that the additit nal information re ceived by the police in the murder case relates to the lancets which are said to have. belonged to the deceased, and which were taken from his person at the time of the murder. 'SOUTH WALES CIRCUIT.-HAVERFORDWE3T, MARCH 4. (Before Mr. Justice Williamd.) THE WOODEN HORSE. Wm. Pennant, Jamc3 Morris, and George Price, were indicted for having riotously assembled at Solvay on the 18th of last January, and assaulted William Miller William.. Mr. Giffard conducted the prosecution ; and Mr. Coleridge defended the prisoners. William Miller Williams, the prosecutor, deposed—l am past 72 years of age. I live at Solve, in this county. I remember the 16th of Jan. last. A mob of people came to my house. They were very noisy in the street outside. They had torches, and I heard cheering, drums, horns, and firearms. The next night they came again. On the following night, the 18th of Jan., forty or fifty people entered the house. There were 300 or 400 men, women, and children in the street. They entered through the staircase window, which was fastened. I ran up stairs and hid tril self under the bed. The pr. sonar James Morris found me under the bed. He called out to his c )mpanions to assist him, and they hauled me out by my arms and legs, and dragged me down stairs. They put me on a ladder and fastened my left hand to the ladder with a rope. I had no hat or shoes on. After being carried through the village they marched me about. The prisoners Price and Pennant ware carrYing the ladders with others that I do not know. They changed by turns the carriers. The prisoner Mores said if I did not give them half a barrel of seer they would throw me over the bridge. On the arrival of the constable they lowered the ladder. Cross-examined—My wife brought me a good deal of money. I think I have treated her very well. She was sorry for the uproar. I have heard since that those people came at the instigation of my wife. I used at this time to go out and stay all night to ♦isit a sick brother. I never instead of going to my sick brother's visited a married woman named Blaney, whose husband is at sea. I swear I never was in bod with Blaney in my life. My wife hag 'no reason to be jealous of me. I was told that my wife paid some money and gave some beer to the prisoner Morris to watch me going to Blaney's house. I called ont " Murder," and " Police !" when I was on the ladder, and I swear I did not cry out "Blaney for ever !" For the defence, it was urged that the identity of the prisoners had not been established. That the prosecutor was not the best of husbands. It was a Welsh custom, that when a respectable old gentleman likethe prosecutor had misbehaved himself in the manner imputed, to mount him upon " The Wooden Horse ;" and that the wife to reclaim and bring back her husband, had resorted to this stratagem. This old gentlemen had sustained no per sonal injury ; and merely parading him through the village was a rustic mode of doing justice. The learned Judge, in summing up, told the jury that they must say whether this assembly 8N as calculated to inspire terror. If so, there was a riot, and they must next see whether the prisoners were identified as taking part in such riot. The jury retired, and after some deliberation returned a verdict of guilty of a common assault. His Lordship in passing sentence said that the Ben tence of the Court would have been one of great seve- rity, if it had not appeared that the prisoners had been probably misled by other people, and the influence of drink. They were then sentenced to one month's imprison. ment. GRAND TRUNK RAILWAY OF CANADA. The depreciation for some time in progress in the shares of the Grand Trunk Railway of Canada, and the adverse influences temporarily operating on its pr'sspects from the effects of the war and the state of the money-market, have led to a meeting being held yesterday of some of the most influential per sons interested in the undertaking to devise means for restoring its position. Mr. T. M. Weguelin occupied the chair, and the following resolutions were adopted, suggesting that under the peculiar circumstances of the case the interference and aid of the provincial Government should be solicited, and nominating a committee to co-operate with the London members of the board in promoting such an, arrangement as may be deemed most advanta geous for the shareholders and for the future wel fare of the colony. At the same time full confi dence was unanimously expressed that the line will ultimately realise the anticipations originally en tertained of it " Moved by Mr. WEGUELTN, seconded by Mr. WM: REID, That having regard to the advantages which have r.snited to the Government and people of Canada !row , the suppo s rt afforded by English capitalists to" taking of the Grand Trunk Raliwaw sidering the actual conditio - • tion of eircuirst, under. ~ u mpany, and con. in which, from a combine -.es quite irrespective of its merits, it is this meeting arc of opinion that an appeal may justly and properly be made to the Canadian Go vernment for present aid, either in the shape of a limited guarantee upon the share capital, or in such other mode a= may be judged expedient, and woull be likely to be effectual." "Moved by Mr. Drum, seconded by Sir WILLIAM CUBITT, That a committee be appointed to communicate to the English Board of Directors the resolution adopted by this meeting, to request their concurrence in the pro. posed policy, and to express the willingness of the corn• mittee to cu-operate with the board in any manner which may be considered expedient for the purpose of giving effect thereto." " Moved by Mr. TfIOIIAS CLOSE, seconded by Mr. TITE, M.P. That Messrs. %Voguelin, Hubbard, Dillon, Laing, Uzielli, R. Gillespie, and Count Strzelecki be requested to act as the members of the said commit• tee, with power to add to their number, and that the lion. Mr. Napier be requested to act as secretary to the committee." _ vV The annexed letter appears to express the gene ral feeling of the commercial publi c as we ll as of the principal banking firms regarding the bill of Mr. Apsley Pellatt for legalising the practice as to crossed cheques. At the same time, it has been suggested by a different correspondent, that the bill, which at present refers to cheques payable on demand only, should be made also to apply both to cheques payable to order and at sight ; a cheque payable to order, endorsed in blank, would require the protection of a crossing as much as any other : " Sir,—The banking and commercial community owe to Mr. Apslev Pellatt a debt of gratitude for the introduction • of his bill 'to settle the vexed question of 'crossed cheques the practice of crossing has been found to be so salutary as a protection against fraud both to the drawers and holders of cheques, that a grave responsibility rests on those who attempt to disturb it. The proposed measure, if carried, will set at rest the uncertainty at present prevail ing on the subject, and I trust Mr. Pellatt will receive the support not only of commercial men in the House of Com• mons, but that the Government will feel it to be their duty to sanction this bill and assist in passing it speedily into law, thus giving an additional protection . a , gainsikoss arising from robberies of letters at the Post - o dice, which , bankers know to their cost are so frequently occurring.

CIVIL SERVICE SUPERAN:NtrATIOn. —The committee assembled at room No. 19, at o'clock yesterday. The Chancellor of the Excheikter presided. Sir C. Trevelyan was examined in 'reference to the superannuation of county cons . .i,`,ldges. He thought the age at which civil servants should be emplyed was a matter which might be safely left to the heads of departments. Compulsory retirement he would fix at 65 years of age, and he should propose that no person should be entitled to the superior scale of superannuation who entered the pub lic service after 50 years of age. He should have suggested 45, but he thought that would be an unpopular proposi tion. No bargain had been made with persons at pre sent in the civil service, that they should be compelled to retire at a certain time. If, however, any great public advantage would result from a change, he should have no hesitation in recommending that persons at present its the service should be subjected to any changes that might be desirable, even though no arrangement bad been made with them. He believed that a man's services were of the greatest use when he was between 50 and 60 years of age. At that period of life there were great inducements to leave the service, and it ought to be strongly guarded against. People of that sort were in much request by railway companies, insurance com panies, and similar institutions. The Chancellor of the Exchequer remarked that if such were the fact, there couldibe no harm in altogether withholding superannu ation allowances from such persons. He should like to know, whether the remark made by the witness applied to the civil service generally. Sir C. Trevelyan said it did, and he thought it still more likely to be the case hereafter, as the various measures for the improvement of the civil service began to take effect. He _added, in reference to pensions, that it would be advisable to give them civil servants whether they paid the superannuation fecs or not. It had been ascertained that the fear of want in age operated very seriously upon them, and that a larger proportion of them suffered from mental diseases than was found amongst men of literature and science. The witnese underwent a further examination In refer ence to the various Treasury minutes bearing upon the superannuation fend.

Mr. Hill for the prosecution, Mr. Cripps for the defence. It appeared that on the day in question Robins, and two other boys, were trespassing on some land belonging to the prisoner's master, gathering aloes, when the pri soner warned them 'off. They immediately ran away, upon which Robins was struck by some shots from the prisoner's gun. Another boy, was also struck by some shots, but not to the same extent as Robins. It was urged on behalf of the prisoner that his gun went off accidentally as he was getting over a thorn, hedge. Tbe jury found the prisoner guilty of firing the gun to frighten the boys, but not with any malicious intent. The Judge said he concurred in the verdict, but that as it was a rash act on the part of the prisoaer, he felt it to be his duty to sentence him to six months' impri sonment with hard labour. MIDLAND ClRCUlT.—LnicneTnn, MA.ncs 6. (Before Lord Chief Justice Campbell.) THE SNAILESTONE MURDER. John Fevka, aged 45, was indicted for the wilful murder of his nephew, John Acres Fowkes, at Snareston, at midnight, on the 25th of November last. Mr. Mellor, Q.C., Mr. Cockle, and Mr. ivlerewether, conducted the prosecution ; 'Mr. O'Brien and Mr. Bell the defence. William Fowkes, brother of prisoner, deposed that his brother came to him at rake on the night in question, called him ow, said that their nephew, the deceased, had obtained 7001. of their father's money, and he (pri soner) "would bed-1 if he would not stop him that night." Deceased came home with police constable Cooper about haltpalt 11, and they, with the old man, sat down to some beer. The father being asthmatical, went to the window, and opened it to get some fresh air.. The house stands on their farm, away from the village. The old man had scarcely sat down when witness heard a crash at the window, and, turning round, saw a face which, though not positive, he believed, then tad still believed to be his brother's. Helmeted " There's But cher" (the nick-name of his brother), and, while speak ing a gun was discharged, and the deceased fell bleeding on the floor. Witness and the policeman went to the back-door, which was faetened by a pelts being placed aerwis and tied to the handle. The front door was blocked up. Some minutes elapsed before they got out. Police-constable Cooper corroborated this evidence, but did not see the adan.at the .window. . Elizabeth "iowkes, mother of deceased, who .was her illegitiniite son, deposed she slept on , the ground•floor. Hearing a gun discharged, she rushed to the window, and saw a man go by stooping under the window in the direction of a ploughed field. His coat was a dark one, similar to prisoner's. Police Superintendent Platte spoke to arriving at the house shortly after four. He went to the house of pri soner, an odd house, a mile off, and found prisoner up. Prisoner alleged he was going to thatch, and got up be cause his child had a bad finger. He denied any know- Sedge of the murder, and said he was fond of deceased. Found a gun, which was moist and black inside the bar rel, as if very recently discharged. Prisoner said his son broke the gun a few days ago. The gun appeared to be broken, but witness found it could be put in order by means of pinchers and screw in less than a minute. Found prisoner's boots, which corresponded with foot marks found along the ploughed field leading from the house of deceased to prisoner's house. The same foot. marks were found near the lumber room, where the pole which fastened the door stood on the previous after ' noon. Witness also found gates open between the two houses. AIL EdinoLd surgeon, deposed deceased died in four days from the gunshot wound. There were bits of brick and grit, as well as shot, in the wound. Two gunsmiths deposeA that the last time the gun was fired it must have been charged with stone, brick, or some hard substance, as the barrel was grazed. Several respectable witnesses were called from the neighbourhood, who spoke to having heard the prisoner previously use threats about deceased, such as " I'll be d—d if I don't shoot the pair of them ;" "I'll finish those devils before many days are over ;" " I'll serve the devil 0u , ," &c. Mr. O'Brien made a long and able defence on behalf of the prisoner, after which the judge read over the whole of the evidence, and the jury, after a few minutes' con sultation, returned a verdict of guilty. The Judge then passed sentence of death upon pri soner. The trial 11-1 , ...d 10 hours. WESTERN CIRCUIT.—WINCIIESTER. MARCH 7. (Before Mr. Sergeant Channell.) . CHARGE OF MURDER. inn.lnseN, aged 39, a ship's steward, lately returned from the Crimea, was indicted for the wilfol murder of Amelia Ansel, bie wifa, at Pot•tsea, ou the 22d Feb. Mr. Coleridge and Mr. W. M. Cooke for the prosecu tion; and Mr. Saunders and Mr. roclden fm. the defence. The prisoner has been living at No. 15, Kettering-ter• race, for the last 7 weeks, wish his wife, and although scrne slight differences appeared to have existed between i them, no positive quarrel was proved to have occarred. On the night in question the deceased was at home with one of her neighbours, and, being in a state of intox;- cation w a s assisted into bed, when t he nei,,l-‘ Shortly after, this neighbour saw 4 ' house, and, knowing V— passed. Sl - ' o —eour left. prisoner go into his tate of his wife, listened to what neard eome words between them, and then the deceased cried out 'madly, " Help, help." The wit ness knocked at the front door, and then heard another cry of "Oh, don't, don't," in a loud voice, and " Mur der, enurder," and "Make my peace, make my peace," and then there was the report of a pistol. In conse quence of the witness knocking again the prisoner came down stairs, and let her in ; and she said, " What Fare you done !" He replied, "Ph, my God ! Mrs. Farrell, what have I done to my poor wife 3" Witness went up stairs, followed by the prisoner, and there was the de ceased lying bleeding and senseless. There was a pistol and a bayonet on the table. Prisoner said it was done by accident. She had done it herself. When he entered the roam, he fell upon his wife and said, " My dear Amelia, speak to me." He appeared to be almost frantic. 'lke prisoner had brought home a very valuable trophy from Kertch, and bad bought a pistol to protect his pro perty. Au attempt had been made to get into his house, and this caused the deceased to be timid. The prisoner had talked of taking a public-house. Another witness proved that the deceased had had her head bound up for some days, and had told her that her husband bad beat her with a stick. On one occasion she was com plaining in her presence that she was afraid of the pis tol, when the prisoner said, "The contents are for you, if you do not behave yourself." Mr. Dixon, surgeon, proved that the ball had gone through the head in a downward direction, and was lodged in the right side between the ear and cheekbone. He thought it possible that such a wound might have been caused by an accident, but she could not have d one it by her own hand. The pistol, a six-barrelled revolver, was produced. Five of the chambers were still loaded. Only one had been fired. Prisoner, when t a k en i nto custody, was in a state of girt excitement, and said it was done in play, and by accident ; that h e h a d the pis tol in his hand when gettinginto bed (whe re h e usua ll y kept b it by his side;, wife touched th e coc k an d it u went state of the pist o l a t t h e t i me was the jt offf. in . h r that his y before th e court, one witness subject couTheo si inquiry stating that if it was loaded, and the cap on the nipple with the cock down, if the cock was suddenly struck upon the cap it might cause it to explode. Mr. Saunders having addressed the jury, urging that there was no proper evidence of malignity, called Lieut. O'Reilly, of the V , etribution, Mr. Balliston, of the Al bion, and other otficers of the navy, who gave the pri soner an excellent character for kindness, especially in cases of illness ; and that he bad been thanked by the Duke of Cambridge for his attention to him during an indisposition. The Judge having summed up, suggested that the cries heard by the witnesses have arisen from the timidity of the wife and the excitement of drink, and she might have tried to remove the listol herself, which caused it to he discharged. The jury, after a short consultation, acquitted the prisoner of the murder. He was then indicted on the coroner's inquisition for V 'II Z 3.
