To these who are in the immediate vicinity of the railway, the advantages will naturally be greater. Each town or village will become the point of attraction from the neighbouring, and even distant line of country, for the purpose of cornice tion with the railway. The inns and houses of public entertainment for travellers will be more resorted to.

The total amount of debts wove(' against the estate is nearly half a million sterling. The dividends already declared amount to ten shillings and tenpence in the pound on the joint estate ; and should the important question relative to the suit in Chancery and the Colosseum be compromised, a further dividend of one shilling and sixpence in the pound is expected to be declared. Singular to say, not one creditor appeared to discuss the question, and the proceedings were therefore adjourned. The official assignee and two legal gentlemen had arrived from the country to be present. AMERICAN GIMBLETS.—The Yankees are in a fair way to destroy John Bull's gimblet trade with this country. The new twist gimblet is almost as much su perior to the old English gimblet, as the screw auger is to the old pod auger. Th.-re is a gimhlet factory at West Whately which employs fifteen hands, about half of them females, and manufactures twenty-five gross per week. The steel is imported from England in round rods ; the handles are turned out in the vicinity.—New York Journal of Commerce. CHANCE OF EMPLOYMENT IN VAN DIE MAN'S LAND. —There has prevailed (says Surgeon Os borne, in his Notes on New South Wales) a slight mis take or error in the mother country about the advantage of labourers and artisans emigrating to this country. Free labour never was nor ever will he in demand where con vict labour cm be procured with so much facility as in New South Wales at present, and even mechanics now meet with great disappointment on their arrival. The firmera, all, of course, prefer prison labour, no expence, comparatively speaking, attending it, and the servant is under their controul. At this time there is no chance of a mechanic receiving in Sydney more than ordinaty wages at home; and I happen to know some who cannot get employment at all—saddlers, &c. ; and a blacksmith, who came out in the ship with me, has declared that if his wife and family were not coming out by the assistance of the Emigration Committee, he would return in the same ship, for he could do better at home than here, and would he more content in future. The large farmer never re. quires a supply of manufactured articles from the town ; he has his blacksmith, carpenter, shoemaker, &c., and he is in a better position for supplying the wants of his p oorer neighbours than consuming the surplus labour of tradesmen. It is not unusual for an artisan—a black smith in particular, and perhaps some other callings also —to earn for his master from 501. upwards per annum, by supplying the wants of the neighbouring farmers, who are glad to pay the town price to avoid the trouble and expense of going so far for accommodation. A similar error prevails respecting free young women; the situation they stand in on their landing may easily be imagined ; but it is not necessary for me to describe. Some young men, farmers' sons, lately arrived with a view of getting employment as overseers- &c., and were surprised when they were offered 201. per annum, or perhaps less; they lid not consider that their services were not av ailable at first—that it took time to acquire the method of business and above all, to learn to "battle the watch" with the convict servants before they could be useful to their em ployers. This is not quite so easy as many deluded parents imagine when they thrust forth their hopeful Johnnies to make a rapid fortune in the "El Dorado" A ustraliansis. This morning his MAJEsTr inspected the Ist Life. Guards and the let battalion of Grenadier Guards i❑ the Quadrangle of the Castle. His MAJEsTY was attended by the Duke of GLOUCESTER, Prince GEORGE, Colonel Bo- WATER, Prince ESTERHAZY, and Sir B. TAYLOR. Prince TALLEYRAND and the Duchess de DINO took leave, and left this morning for town. Their MAJESTIES attended divine service this morning in the private chapel of the Castle. The Rev. 1. GossEr and the Rev. Mr. Woon officiated. This afternoon, at four o'clock, the KING rode out in his droski. On the 7th of next month the KING will review the 3d Regiment of Dragoon Guards, which, we understand, are now stationed at Brighton, and on the same day a grand dinner will be given in St. George's Hall. The day for their MAJESTIES departure for Brighton is not yet definitively fixed, but it is expected it will be on or about the 26th of the ensuing month. DUTCH PAPERS. THE HAGUE, Sept. 19.—His Excellency the Russian Councillor of State, Potemkin, Ambassador Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary from the Emperor of Russia to the Court of the Nether lands, has arrived here from Berlin. Also Prince Solykoff and Count Fersen, both from London. (Private Corn spondence of the Handelsblad.) Sept. 18. —As may easily be supposed, little that can be depended on has yet transpired respecting the nature of the information given to the Govern ment by Baron Verstolk Van Soelen. In a quarter which may be presumed to be well-informed, it is affirmed his Excellency has been sent for to this place for no other reason than to develope the grounds of a memorial sent by his Excellency from London, respecting which no determination has yet been come to; but in which the unanimous desire of all the members of the Conference is said to be mani fested, to come to a speedy and satisfactory amicable arrangement respecting the few remaining formal questions. It is affirmed also that his Excellency, during his stay in London, has been so thoroughly convinced of this unanimous desire of the Plenipo tentiaries of all the Courts, that the hope of a definitive settlement, which is so much desired, may be considered to be encouraged by his return, rather than as some, judging by appearances, at first thought that it should be looked upon as an indication of new differences more or less difficult to be overcome. BOIS-LE-DUC, SEPT. 17.—Nothing further is at present known respecting the transferring of the head-quarters to this place, but it is supposed that it will be so before the winter. From the surveys of the ground in the neighbourhood of this fortress, it seems that the Government has it in contempla tion to extend the line of defence in this province. We learn that it has lately been decided that militia men of the years 1826, 1827, and 1828 may, if they desire, obtain from the military authorities permis sion to marry ; that militiamen absent with unlimited furloughs may, if they require it, return to their corps; that men belonging to the schuttery who have engaged to serve during the present circum stances in his INlnjesty's navy, may, if they wish it, obtain indefinite furloughs on condition of their re turning to the service when called upon; that militiamen serving on board the fleet may obtain furloughs to return to their homes, on condition of returning at the first summons, but cannot have furloughs to serve on board merchantmen. Volun teers in the navy cannot have unlimited furloughs. BERLIN, SEPT. I 6.—Their Royal Highnesses Prince Charles and Prince Augustus have returned from Magdeburg. PRUSSIAN FUNDS—BizamN, SEPT. 16.

PETERSBURGII, SEPT. 7.—The Board of Foreign Trade announces to the merchants that, conformably to the tariff now in force, large and small carpets (kovri and kovriki), whether entirely of wool or with a mixture of flax, hemp, or cotton, as also those of silk, or half silk, are forbidden to be imported if they have fringe sewed round them. Up to the 4th of this month 916 ships had ar rived at Cronstadt, and 715 sailed. POLOTSY, AUG. 23.—0 n the 21st the inhabitants of this town professing the Gre, k Russian religion were gratified by the arrival of the venerable Bishop Smaragd, in whose person the see of Polotsk is restored. This town is well known to have been the see of a bishop on the first introduction of Christianity into Russia; but towards the end of the 16th century, some bishops of the Greek com munity in the western parts of the empire were driven by constant oppression and persecution from the Roman Catholic clergy to join the western church, and from that time the Greek clergy seemed to have lost for ever the see of Polotsk, as the number of their followers in all White Russia and Lithuania decreased more and more, so that at present only a few thousands have remained true to their faith. The deplorable state of the Greek church in this part of the empire has justly attracted the attention of his Majesty the Emperor, who to the numerous favours which he has .41ready conferred on the Greek church, has added the restoration of the Greek see of Polotsk, and, consider , ng the cir cumstances of the case, his Majesty has been pleased to select himself the person who should first have the dignity of Bishop of Polotsk. It is difficult to describe the impatience with which the small community at Polotsk awaited his coming, and the joy with which they received him. The cathedral built by the Jesuits, and now converted into a Gre:k church, was filled with followers of all re ligious parties, who were addressed by the new bishop in a manner that did honour to the choice of his sovereign. ST. PETIRSBURGII, SEPT. 6.—Exchange on Lon don, 10 25.32. We take the following from the Finisterre of the 12th inst. :—" The seaweeds with which the coast f Britanny is covered bad been unapplied to any purposes but that of manure until a very few years ago, when M. Guilhem established at Conquet a manufactory of soda, a produce well known to be extracted from seaweed. This establishment, commenced upon a very small scale, has, within a very short space of time, attained a most extraor dinary state of prosperity. It produces iodine, the hydriates and the nitrates of potash, and the sulphates of soda; but another invaluabl e result is derived to the country from the ashes, which the f actory i s enabled to supply at half the price at which they could be obtained previously." The projected extension of the Railway System through various districts of this country renders it a subject, at least interesting, if not important, to the community at large. The advantages or disadvan tages of it should be ascertained, before we decide whether to encourage or repress the enterprise. If it clearly tends to evil, our opposition should be strenuous and persevering—if to good, then are we justified, nay, bound, to promote it, for the public benefit. It is self evident that three purposes may be suggested as the ordinary motives for travelling from place to place—business, health, or amuse ment ; and against these may be presented as many obstacles, arising from loss of time, fatigue of jour ney, or expense. There are two parties deeply concerned in the issue of this momentous question ; and we shall consider the consequences upon each distinctly, with the view of simplifying the argument. First, let us refer to the Proprietors, who may unite their means for the construction of the rail way, and then to the public, for whose service it may be so constructed. We take it for granted that profit is the chief motive for the advance of money to promote any public work. o,her considerations may enter into the calculation of individuals, affecting each in various degrees; but the leading, ruling principle, in money matters, is the hope of gain; and the expe rience of others, in similar undertakings, is generally the guide to lead, or the beacon to warn A mine in South America, in bygone days, may have presented a sufficient temptation to place at hazard even the fortunes of individuals; yet, after the afflicting result of recent experiments, few would be now found willing to contribute to such a scheme. Loans to Foreign States, with unsettled Governments, just emerging from the labours and difficulties of long continued civil revolt, have been too frequently the bitter tests of our national credu lity to admit of such reverses falling again to our lot in the present day. Nor have the sufferers in such instances been consoled for their own loss by the reflection, that the sacrifice has advanced the good of their country. In applying this argument to the Proprietors of Railway Companies, we are naturally led to inquire the exact result of those undertakings which may be considered complete in their execution. Upon reference to the published list of Shares, we find that— The Stockton and Darlington Railway Shares, costing 1061. 13s. 4d., are at 2971. 10s. The Liverpool and Manchester Railway Shares, costing 1001., are at 2101. The Liverpool and Manchester Railway Shares, costing 25/. are at 521. In the next place, we ascertain, from the same source, that of unfinished works— The Liverpool and Birmingham Shares, on which 101. have been paid, are selling at 11/. 10s. The London and Birmingham Shares, on which 51. have been paid, are selling at 71. 10s. Discrimination in the relative prospects of each Company will, of course, controul the value of the shares. Where large expenses may be incurred, whether arising from the nature of country through which the railway is to be conducted, or from persevering and influential opposition, the ex pectation of profit must be naturally diminished. The character of the estimates, both of cost and revenue, must also affect the prospects of the enter prise. No man of sense will blindly league himself to a cause which bears in name only, and not in essential qualifications, the appearance of a winning game. Much may be ascribed, moreover, to the virtue of names connected with the project. The inquiry should be made as to their known discretion and aptness for business. More reliance is to be placed on the distinction of commercial and general knowledge, than of rank in the management of such extensive interests. Where these various advan tages may be found to co-operate, no reasonable doubt can be entertained of an abundant gain to the original proprietors. The harvest, we know, cannot be perpetual to all who may hereafter become interested in them. The shares will become profitable to those who may first purchase them, and will, in their possession, rapidly acquire their intrinsic value; subsequently, they will be held as an investment upon terms of equality with other sources for the employment of money. The present purchaser of a Liverpool and Manches ter share will enjoy but 4 per cent. upon his capital. The original adventurer has either realised 110 per cent, on his first advance, or is annually receiving Si per cent. interest on his money: If, therefore, railroad proper ty, judiciously selected, be likely to yield considerable emolument to those who embark their capital in it, we may reasonably expect to witness an extension of the system; and it behoves us to consider, in the next place, what influence it will probably have on the public at large. It is self-evident, that three purposes may be suggested as the ordinary motives for travelling from place to place—business, health ; or amuse ment; and against these may be presented, arising from loss of time, fatigue of journey, or expense. Can we hope that the institution of any human scheme will be so perfect in itself, as to lessen at once all the difficulties, and promote all the purposes of this essential work ? IF, however, we direct our minds steadily to the effect of Railroads, we shall find that niuch of this virtue has been discovered in them. What would now be thought of au eight (lays' journey from Edinburgh, or even two days' journey from Bath or Bristol to London ? This was the ordinary labour of travelling within the last sixty years. The natural speed of horses, improved by their breeding, and combined with the ingenuity of matt, has reduced two-thirds of this severe fatigue and loss of time. When our minds revert to it, do they not shudder at the thoughts of tie toilsome journey as contrasted with the actual facility of travelling in th e p resen t day ? A n d s h a ll we then withh o ld our app l ause f rom an i nvent i on which, devoid o f a ll crue l t y to an i ma l s, in power of steam, a rate still accelerated from ten to five and furthertr o d in troduces, e s , by the twenty mles per hour ! Adam Smith justly remarks, that roads and bridges are important ele ments in national wealth, and this in proportion to their relative degrees of applicability to the uses for which they are designed. Applying this maxim to rail-roads, we must quickly discern the incalculable advantages they will confer on the public, with re ference to improving the mode of travelling. They will facilitate commerce and encourage agriculture by a saving of half the time and expense to those who, being engaged in such pursuits, have now oc casion to travel. The firmer can reach a distant market and transact his business with a compara tively short absence from his dirties at home. 1-le may, for the same cost, visit and take the advantage of various markets, with less difficulty than his attendance at one place now involves. His pro duce will be transported whither he may desire it, at a vastly reduced expense, and the requisite sup plies for his land, or his domestic establishment, will be furnished with similar advantage. The grazier can insure his cattle reaching the market in the best condition, without loss of weight, and at a moderate c harge. The tradesman must largely participate in most of the same benefits. His stock, too, may be diminished by the facility of procuring a ready sup ply, when needful, by rapid communication with It is unnecessary to point out the many advantages of this system of travelling to the country gentle man, or to those who are induced to move about for the sake of amusement. It is chiefly to th, in. firm and invalids that the diminished fatigue will be of consequence. No person who has made the ex periment can doubt the fact of that result. To all, the comforts must be obvious; but in no case more closely so, than to the industrious labour ing population of the country, who will procure their fuel at a comparatively low price, and be placed in possessiOn of many enjoyments to which they are at present strangers. The facility of intercourse will enable the higher classes to live, or at least to frequeo their residences in the country, more than they now feel inclined to do. Their presence connot fail to promote the comforts of the lower orders. Lastly, we may advert to the undeniable blessing of procuring, when in sickness, the best professional advice which human skill can give. The rapidity of travelling, the cheapness of it, and the absence of all fatigue, will render that blessing accessible to all residing in distant country villages, where, under present circumstances, it it utterly unattainable. Nor is the security of this mode of travelling to be overlooked. Under all the disadvantages of novelty in the system, we have heard only of two accidents since the Liverpool and Manchester Rail road has been opened, which is quite dispropor tionate to the number of passengers conveyed on it, as contrasted with the ordinary travelling by coaches. The fear of steam-navigation at first operated powerfully against its use, and unquestionably some few accidents, from inexperince, did then occur. The trial of many years has now proved the alarm to have been groundless ; and we know that steam vessels have been long resorted to by all classes with entire confidence as to the security of them, and are greatly preferred to any other means of travelling, no less on account of time and expense saved, than of fatigue avoided. Hence we cannot but infer that the same, if not even stronger motives, will in fluence and insure the prosperity of the railway system. We have been led into these general remarks by observing that there are several projects of this ❑ature now before the public. Local interests will of course be at work to support the schemes most closely in alliance with them, and we doubt not of eventual success to many. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORT6MOUTII, SEPT, 21. Extract of a letter from his Majesty's ship Isis, dated Cape of Good Hope, July 8, 1833: " We arrived here on the 26th nit, from the Mauritius, and found lying here the Undaunted, 42, Captain Harvey, and Badger, 10, Commander Stowe. We received the flag of Rear-Admiral Warren, C. 8., from the Undaunted, immediately on our arrival, and that ship on the 28th sailed for Madras. The Charybdis, 4, Lieutenant Craw ford, is daily expected here from the west coast. The Curlew, 10, Commander Trotter, is expected at the Cape about September, from the coast, and will then proceed direct to England, her time of service having expired. 'When we left the Mauri tius the Melville, 74, Captain Hart ; Talbot, 28, Captain Dickenson ; and Pelorus, 18, Commander Meredith, were there; the former ship had arrived on the 26th of May from Bombay, and was to re turn on the 15th of June, and the Pelorus from the Cape on the 3d of June; she was to sail on the of June for Ceylon, with money to pay the troops at Colombo, whither the Jupiter troop-ship had pro ceeded on the 30th of May, to take on board troops for conveyance to England. The Ganges Indiaman was at Port Louis when we left, having been struck by a sea, which broke five beams and twenty-three timbers, and carried away her quarter gallery ; three men and five horses were washed overboard; one woman was drowned between decks, and a lady died of fright. Our ship's company are very healthy, and we sail in a few days for the west coast." His Majesty's brig Trinculo, Lieutenant Thomp son, acting, has captured near the Gallenas, after.a chase of four hours, the Spanish schooner Secundo, Socorrow, with 307 slaves on board; the schooner was wel! manned, having the crews of two other vessels previously captured on board. Mr. Hollin worth, mate of the Trinculo, who was appointed prize-mster, has taken the vessel and the slaves, all well, into Sierra Leone, and delivered them up to the proper authorities. Intelligence had been re ceived of another slave-ship in the same neighbour hood being ready to sail, and the Trinculo was go ing i►► pursuit of her. BRITISH MEN-OF-WAR ON FOREIGN STATIONS —The Serpent, 16, Commander Symonds, arrived at Halifax on the 18th August, in twenty-one days from Spithead, and she would sail in a week for Bermuda and Jamaica. The Alfred, 42, Captain R. Maunsell, arrived at Malta on the 27th July from Tenedos, and left on the 18th August for Nauplia. The Volage, 28, Captain G. Martin, C. 8., left Malta on the Ist August for Nauplia. The Racehorse, 18, Commander Cotton, arrived at Maranham on the 6th July from a cruise, and left 13th for Para. The Conway, 28, Captain Eden, arrived at Madeira, on her way to Rio Janeiro, on the Bth August, and left on the following day. The Alban steamer arrived at Madeira, 26th July, and left on the 30th for Demerara. The Briseis packet, Lieutenant Dow►►ey, arrived also at Madeira on the 9th of August from Falmouth, and left on the 10th for Brazils. The Rinaldo packet arrived at Rio on 17th of July, from Falmouth. The Hyacinth, 18, Commander Blackwood, was in 27. S. 23. W. on the 14th of July, all well. The Challenger, 28, Captain Michael Seymour, was taken out of the basin yesterday, and will shot tly proceed to South America. The lEtna, 16, refitting in the harbour, was un docked on Wednesday. Commander W. George Skyring is named as her Commander. The Fair Rosamond schooner, Lieut. Rose, sailed from Lisbon on the 30th ult. for Sierra Leone. The Orestes, 18, Capt. Glasscock, is hourly ex pected at Spithead from Oporto. The Numa transport left Spithead on Wednesday for Deptford, with stores for the Dockyard. The Orestes transport left Sheerness on Saturday last with stores also for that Dockyard. The Court of Inquiry held on board the 'Etna to investigate into some money transactions of the clerk of that ship terminated entirely in that indi vidual's favour, and the officers composing such expressed themselves that the clerk's conduct was every way free from censure, as a proof of which he has been again appointed by the Admiralty to the saute ship. The ship Mary, in 131 days from Sydney, passed this port on Tuesday; passengers, Mr. Palmer and family, Mrs. Wills and child, Mr. Harper, Mr. Ford, Dr. Bromley, R,N.

THE COLDSTREAM GUARDS.-Since the arrival of the second battalion of Coldsteam Guards from Dublin in London Colonel Mackinnon has given orders for the men to wear their cross belts, attached to which is their side arms, when off duty, instead of wearing the common fatigue j icket This eivea them a conspicuous appearance, as the Ist Regiment of Grenadier Guards and the Royal Scotch Fusileers wear their common fatizue jackets. (From the Limerick Chronicle of Wednesday.) Two aide-de-camps on the Staff of the Lord Lieute nant are to be reduced. This day the General Courtmartial will assemble in Clonmel, for trial of Lieutenants Losh and Williams, of the 231 R , ,yal Welsh Fusileers. Lieut.-Col.

A Courtmartial, Lieut.-Colonel Hailer, 28th Regiment, President, assembled at the New Barracks on Monday, for trial of two soldiers of the bth Regiment from Nenagh. A General Courtmartial sat last Saturday in the Royal Barracks, Dublin, and tried three privates b Jo aging to the 6th Carbineers, 47th Regiment, and 60th Rifles. On Friday a General Courtmartial was hell at the Cork Barracks, on a private of the 76th Regiment, Col.

Another Courttnartial was held in the same place on Saturday on a private of the 61st Regiment, for desertion from that and other Regiments ; Col. Turner, President. The troops are much inconvenienced by the crowded .tote of the barmeks at Mullingar ; the entire of the 4 , 7 th R,gitneut, and the greater part of the 64th Foot, being there. The 14th Dragoons are suffering from cholera in Dub lin; they hive lost five or six men within the week. SYDNEY. Sydney Papers to the 18th of May have arrived. A society has been formed there, under the denomination ot . " The Australian Steam Conveyance Company," the ob ject of which is to promote the more extensive application of steam machinery to conveyance, both by water and by land. The first undertaking of the Company was to establish a steam-packet of 12. horse power between Sydney and Paramatta, the cost of which, including boat, engine, and all appurtenances, was estimated not to exceed 2,000/., and the whole was to be manufactured, as far as prac ticable, within the colony. The capital was to be raised by 400 transferable shares of 51. each, and no individual was to hold more than 20 shwas. Three hundred shares were already taken up by the residents in Sydney. The Sydney College, in its main building, was fast ap proaching completion, and a few weeks more was expected to render it available as a temporary school-house, with accommodation for a master. The Sydney agricultural report for April states, that the rain which bad succeeded the protracted drought had produced a gratifying change, making th, ground in ex. cellent order for sowing wheat ; and what was above ground was materially improved in appearance and pro mise. Much of the early maize had been gathered, and, apparently, the crop was more abundant than was antici pated. fobacco plants bad also produced a larger crop than was expected from the prevalence of extreme dry weather. Seed oats were in much request among the the agriculturists. The pasturage in general was very scanty, and it was feared that the rains of the latter end of April were too late to effect its restoration before the winter frosts set in. LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, SEPT. 21. —There was a strong disposition manifested by some holders of cotton in the earlier part of the week to sell, and they accepted pikes which were Id. to I 1. per lb. below those obtainable within the last month. This de cline tempted buyers to come forward anti to purchase; and themgh the demand of Monday and Tuesday has not been maintained for the last day or two, yet confidence has not again disappeared, and the market, though now quiet, is steadier than it was at the beginning of the week. The Surats offered by auction yesterday were for the most part taken in, and the few lots which were sold went off at d. to id. per lb. decline from the highest paint of the. market. The sales of the week, including 400 bales American on speculation, amounted to 6,720 bags—im port 12,356 bags. To-day the sales amount to only 300 or 400 bags. WooL.—The total number of pounds of sheep and lambs' wool imported into the United Kingdom . in the year 1832 was—foreign, 28 128,973 ; produce of the Isle of Man, 13,516.
