THE WAR. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. On Saturday afternoon the town of Deal presented a scene of gaiety and festivity on the occasion of the de parture of the French transport screw steamer Prince with the 3d Regiment of French infantry of the line for the Baltic. The Prince had anchored in the Downs, ill consequence of having received some injury. The yard was crowded with thousands of spectators who thronged there to witness the happyunion of England and France. The band performed several celebrated airs, after which Mr. Reeks, the ex-Mayor, came forward and made an appropriate address to the alliance of France and Eng land, concluding with three cheers, in which the specta tors joined, for the Emperor Napoleon, &o. After the last piece, composed in honour of the union of the two countries, had been sung and played with great enthu siasm, ~b rod save the Queen was repeated, and fol lowed by loud shouts of " Viva Victoria." The band then adjourned to a spacious building in the yard, and partook of an English e ntertainment. After the repast they paraded the town arm-in-arm with our English sol diers. At 8 p.m. they commenced embarking for the screw steamer Prince, amid loud cheering and waving of hats and handkerchiefs from the crowd assembled along the beach to witness their departure, the band playing si God save the Queen. On Saturday notice was given by the High Marshal of the Court of Admiralty that the undermentioned ships t a k e n breaking the blockade of the Gulf of Finland would be condemned within 20 days by the High Court of Admiralty, as lawful prizes to their captors—namely, the De Vrow Alada, Liver late master, prize to her Ma jesty's steamer Archer ; the Steen Bille, P. H. Beck late master, prize to her Majesty's steamer Conflict; and the Annechina Jantina, Simon J. Oostra, late master, prize to her Majesty's steamer Archer. The following Russian ships taken in British ports sailing under simulated papers, will forthwith be con demned as droits and perquisites to the Admiralty : The Amalie, Alroe late master ; the Baltica, Pygelstrom late master ; and the ..Eolus ' Ludivech Schildwach late master, seized at L e ith ; an d the Ernest, Iferk, taken in the port of Hull. The notices required by the Court of Admiralty in re spect to the Russian ship Oton, F. Voss late m as t er , prize to her M a j es t y ' s s t eamer Alban, having expired, she, with her cargo, will be sold for the benefit of her captors. The following officers, taken in the Tiger, will be ex changed for the Russian prisoners carried to Odessa in the Fury—namely, Lieutenants A. Hamilton and Wills E. Stone ; F. Egington, Master ; Lieut. Angell, of the Marines ; the Surgeon, Mr. Domville ; Paymaster Lance ; the Mate, Mr. Wilkinson ; Second-Master Sol flat ; and Midshipmen J. E. Scudamore, T. Sullivan, Wood, Kent, Beatson, Hammond, Rowden, Nind, and Robinson ; and warrant officers Quin, Delaney, and Beckford. The Waterloo, 120 guns, flag-ship, Captain Lord Frederick Kerr. The officers and crews of vessels de tained under charges of having broken or attempted to break the blockade, continue to arrive at Sheerness ; on Friday evening last eleven officers and seamen were sent to the Waterloo to await further instructions. On Saturday morning last Captain Beck, late in command of the Danish schooner Steene Bille, was sent up in charge to be examined in regard to the seizure of his schooner. They are all to be shifted over to the Devon shire to-day, and she is to be berthed at No. 7 mooring on the west shore, being at all times under the notice of the guard-ship in ordinary, and flag-ship. The screw steam-ship Exmouth, 91, having received her boilers and machinery, left the floating basin at Key ham on Thursday, and was taken in the middle of the day, in the presence of Rear-Adrairal Stopford, Mr. W. Edye, and other officials, into the new basin dock, so long under construction in the Devonport Dockyard. The Exmouth is to be fitted by the riggers of the yard. On her being taken into the dock, three hearty cheers were given by the artisans—it being the first ship placed in the new dock. The Hornet, 17, Captain Campbell, sailed for Yar mouth on Saturday going eastward. ; she is intended to reinforce the White Sea squadron. The Vulture, 6 guns, paddle-wheel steam-frigate, Capt. F. H. H. Glasse, on Saturday last took in more than 30 tons of shot and a large number of live shell, in addi tion to which she takes the new projectile gun with a bountiful supply of shells for it. She is so deeply , laden with ammunition, &c., that she draws 18 inches water beyond her usual marks. Her mails were made up on Saturday at the Post-office, Sheerness, and she only awaits her orders from the Admiralty to leave direct for the Baltic. Her crew were paid wages on Saturday. Mr. Henry William Grose, assistant-engineer of the third class, has taken up his commission and joined this ship, vice Mr. D. H. Bennett, on sick leave of absence. The United States sloop of war Preble, 18, Commander Thomas T. Craven, from Norfolk, and last from Ply mouth, arrived at Spithead on Saturday morning, and saluted the national flag, the Port-Admiral, and the - United States Consul, Mr. Pappalardo, by whom the commander has been introduced to the naval and mill authorities to pay his respects. The Preble has 36 naval cadets on board, who will be practically instructed in all the duties of seamanship on the voyage, and will sail from Spithead to-morrow for Cherbourg and Brest, and thence to the - United States. The Industry screw steam store-ship, Master-Com mander Bradley, arrived in Plymouth-sound on Friday evening with her coal bunkers on fire. On her passage from Woolwich she narrowly escaped the fate of the unfortunate Jasper, and, but for the fine weather and the presence of mind of her commander, would most likely have been destroyed. Wheu off Margate smoke was observed rising from the top of the boilers, and holes for the admission of water were immediately cut in the deck each side of the funnel, and the engine set to work. This had the effect of suppressing the fire, but, whenever extra power was neces sary, it recommenced. The Industry is iron -built, of 640 tons, and was originally intended to carry coal, for which purpose she has a large hold forward. Her two oscillating engines, by Bolton and Watt, are of 40-horse power each, and capable of obtaining 42 revolutions per minute at full speed. They do not appear suitable to the requirements of the ship. The stoke room is at all times exceedingly close, the thermometer having been, it is said, from 113 to 120 on the trial trip off Queen hithe. The midship plate of the coal bunker, instead of being five or six feet, is only two feet from the funnel, and the deck is much too close to the boilers. When ever there was occasion to force the necessary pressure in the engine -roo m some thi ng too k f i re, and through this the leggings or linings of the boilers ware consumed and the coal in the bunkers was ignited. On Saturday afternoon, after being surveyed, she left Plymouth sound for the dockyard, where she was inspected by Admiral Superintendent Stopford, Mr. Turner, and other officers, when fire was again discovered in the engine-room, to which the dockyard hose was immedi ately conveyed. Her funnel is in front of the mainmast, from which it is only 7 feet distant, so that no sail can be hoisted on this mast ; and during the Channel pas sage, in consequence of the copper not coming low enough down, it became necessary to fix some tin plates in front to prevent the spar from taking fire. The Industry came in ballast from Woolwich, and is inten ded to be laden with bread, at the Royal William Victualling-yard, Plymouth, for the use of the forces in the Black Sea. The Medway paddle-wheel steam-vessel came down the river on Friday to Woolwich dockyard, and on Sa turday dropped down to the Royal Arsenal to take on board a quantity of the munitions of war for active service. PLYMOUTH, JrLy 23. FIRS AT THE GOVERNMENT WORKS AT KETHAM.— On Friday evening, shortly after five o'clock, a shed, situated in the unfinished new steam yard, in which workmen of the contractor, Mr. H. Baker, were em ployed placing deals for roofing the new shop in course of erection, was discovered to be on fire. The engines from Keyham-yard, and two from the magazine, under the direction of Mr. Streeter, the foreman of the works, were speedily brought to the spot, and in full play. Every assistance was rendered by the workmen, who exerted themselves in the most praisworthy manner to arrest the flames, but without success, until the shed and its contents, including a very large number of valu able deals, w ere ent i re l y destroyed. But for the exer tion of all pre sen t , t h e loss, however, would have been much more serious, as at either end of the shed was a stack of deal with which the fire communicated, but which, through the perseze e r c ing efforts of the men, were mostly s ave d . Th e vicinity of the often and residenc e was situated in the of th e ti me -k eeper , storehouse, and s t a bl es, and hacite fire occurred a few hours later, when ready assistance would not have been available, these wou ld undoubtedly all h ave b een de stroyed, and possibly the magazine in the immediate vicinity might have s h are d t h e same fa te. everything was favourable ,• there was wuainnnliddheeourwuspter,avtiatehhdreel supp l y of water was good, and in abou t e fire was completely subdued, with a loss, we of property to the value of about 300/. the fire is not known. The on of The Calcutta, 84, Captain Stopford, was towed in to the Sound yesterday afternoon by the Pike and Confi ance steam-tugs. The flag of Rear-Admiral Stopford, superintendent of the Victualling yard, was Struck on board the Calcutta, on Friday evening at sunset, and re-hoisted on board, pro tem., the Plymouth pay yacht. Lieutenant Holmes took up his appointment on board the Meander, 40, frigate, yesterday, vice Leigh, sen.. tented by court-martial to be dismissed the service. The Sea Nymph and the Industry, hired steam trans ports, arrived here on Friday evening, to take provi. awns to the East, The Avon, s t ea mer, Veitch, master, arrived yesterday morning from th e eastward, and sailed again in the evening for Falmouth, to enter men for the navy. The Andromache sailed yesterday morning for Pem broke, where she will be used as a powd er magazine. Mr. Brown, assistant master attendant, and a party of riggers, navigates her to that port. She was towed out of harbour by the Confiance and Pike steam-tugs. His Netherlands Majesty's brig of war sailed again this morning for a cruise, for the exercise of her crew. She is an instruction brig. SHIPs IN HAMOAZE.—lrnpregnable, 104, flag-ship ; Calcutta, 84 ; Maaander, 44 ; Indefatigable, 50 ; Sylph and Confiance, Hamoaze, Tortoise, Camel, and Aid, lighters.

Mr. John Trickatt, chief engineer of the factory at Keyham, has been ordered to proceed to Manchester to purchase tools for the new factory connected with De- Tonport Dockyard. Mr. Hughes, assistant to the chief engineer at Somer set House, left London on Saturday evening for Paris, to examine some new machinery. The Jason, screw steam-ship, is daily expected at Woolwich, to embark field-batteries of the Royal Ar tillery for service in the East. MILITARY. At 6 o'clock on Friday morning two detachments of the 63d Regiment, consisting of 1,000 men, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Swyny, marched from the military barracks to Merchant's-quay, Cork, accom panied by the band of the 91st Regiment, and a large number of soldiers from other corps. Three of the river steamers, the Prince Arthur, the Prince, and Royal Alice, were then moored to the quay, and in a short period the whole of the men were placed on board. Both bands then struck up " Auld Lang Syne," and the boats moved from the quay amid the hearty cheering of the assembled multitude. On their arrival at Queens town the troops embarked on board the Avon, trans port, which is to convey them direct to Varna. Second Captain J. M. F. Brown, Royal Engineers, at present stationed at Kilkenny, is ordered to join at Chatham. A general order has been issued that in each com pany, of every regiment, from 10 to 12 of the privates shall be instructed in the manufacture of cartridges. On Saturday the sentences of the garrison court-mar tial held on Friday at Sheerness, and confirmed by Col. V. P. England, R.A., Commandant, were promulgated. William Smith, gunner, for desertion, and Geo. Oswell, private, for striking a gunner (not a sergeant) when off duty, were each sentenced to 5 . 6 days' confinem en t a t Fort Pitt, under the military discipline of that depart ment. THE HIMALAYA. LIVERPOOL, July 22.—The Himalaya arrived in the Mersey yesterday evening from Ki igstlwn, ha,vingon board two detachments of Scots Greys, with 158 horses, 64 of which were remounts for cavalry in Turkey, and the following officers :—Major Sullivan, Captains Wil liams and Freeman, Lieutenant Buchanan, Cornet Pren dergast, and 70 non-commissioned officers. The Himalaya left Kingstown at 5 a.m. yesterday, and steamed to the Bell Buoy in nine hours, making on the average, by fair steaming, 131 knots, or 15 statute miles, per hour. She was obliged to remain outside for water, which prevented her from maki ng h er a pp ear ance in the river till about 7.30 p.m. yesterday. It was intended to take her into the Wellington Dock basin to-morrow—an arrangement however, which the low state of the tides will preclude. She will therefore remain in the river until an early hour on Tuesday morning, when she will be laid alongside the floating landing stage, at George's pier, where the main body of the Scots Greys will embark. The bulk of this fine regiment still remains at Manchester. They will leave that city on Monday, and proceeds as far as Prescot, where they will probably billet fur the night, renewing the march hither at an early hour on Tuesday morning. After embarking the whole of the troops and horses the Himalaya will immediately take her de parture for Varna, which she is expected to reach in about 12 days. MILITIA. The Hampshire Militia is to be embodied. It is un derstood that the Marquis of Westminster, in conse quence of ill health, intends to resign the command of this regiment. The - Bedford Militia muster for permanent duty on Tuesday, August 1 ; they go into garrison at Porte mouth. On Wednesday the men of the East Suffolk Artillery Regiment of Militia, having completed their 56 days' training, were dismissed to their homes. They were re viewed by Colonel England, of the Royal Artillery, on the two previous days. The gallant colonel expressed his admiration at the men as a body of militia, and con gratulated the Colonel-Commandant, Col. Adair, and his officers, upon the efficient training of the men, and also paid a compliment to the men themselves for their good behaviour while enrolled, and for the martial efficiency they had displayed. COURT-31A.RTIAL AT WINDSOR. SECOND DAY. On Saturday the court re-assembled at eleven o'clock. The cross-examination of Lieutenant Perry was re sumed, when he stated that he might have struck the prisoner more than nine times in the affray. He did not know (the candlesticks which were placed on the table were both broken, and one was battered and smeared with blood) that he had not been engaged in play for money since be bad been in the regiment more than twice or so. Had net been engaged in gambling trans actions in Cork. Had merely played at billiards for small points with a friend, a civilian. Considered playing merely for Gd. was not gambling In his cross-examination by the Court witness said that the affray took place at the Sheet-street Barracks, Windsor, on the night of the ?Bth of June. That he did not go into Lieutenant Greer's room on his own accord. He went at the invitation of the prisoner to drink sherry with his woman. That the prisoner first proposed play whilst he was there. That he won of the prisoner a large sum of money, when he became excited. That at billiards prisoner won of witness 6s. ; but at prisoner's request to play double or quits witness won 51. The large sum of money was afterwards won of the prisoner in his own room. Witness had not been to prisoner's room more than three times in his life, and was only on this occasion engaged in play with him. He went into the room without the most remote idea of playing ; the game payed when he won the large sum of money was with a small roulette box. He considered prisoner was not drunk or sober. He had seen him on duty in a worse state. Esther Major, the dressmaker, deposed to the follow. ing effect—She was in Lieutenant Greer's room between twelve and one on the night in question. Mr. Perry came into the room whilst she was there. Heard Mr. Greer ask Mr. Perry to get a pack of cards. Mr. Perry went out of the room, and shortly afterwards returned, say ing he could not get any. Mr. Greer then took a small roulette box from the dressing-table and asked Mr. Perry to play, who said he did not understand the game, when Mr. Greer said, " It's easy enough," and they began playing. Mr. Perry won first, and then Mr. Greer cot quits within 5/. Mr. Perry then left, but was fetched back by Mr. Greer. They played again, and Mr. Greer was the loser. During the time he was losing, he called Mr. Petry names, and used bad language. Shortly afterwards Mr. Perry left the room again. Mr. Geeer followed. Afterwards heard them laughing and talking in Mr. Perry's room, and then heard them talking in anger. Heard a scuffle, and ran upstairs and saw Mr. Greer leaning against the waststand, and his face stream ing with blood. She said, " Pray don't." Mr. Greer groaned, and she ran away. On her cross-examination by Colonel Garrett, the prosecutor, witness, in answer to a question, whether the language of Lieut. Greer to Lieut. Perry was of a provoking, insulting, and disgusting nature, said that Mr. Greer called Mr. Perry " A fool, &c," and when he was in Mr. Perry's room, she heard him call Mr. Perry, before the scuffle, by a horrid name. On the prisoner being called upon for his defence, he called Assistant-Surgeon Dempster, who deposed to Lading the prisoner leaning against the dressing-table in Lieut. Perry's room, his face and head almost covered with blood. There were nine wounds on the scalp, and a slight wound over one of the eyes ; there was a contused and lacerated wound near the temple, and another also of a serious nature. The others he considered trivial. It was impossible to say with what degree of force the wound near the temple was given. This concluded the surgeon's evidence, and the Court was adjourned to eleven o'clock this day, when the pri soner will conclude his defence. TIM CHOLERA AT TRIMDON.—Since the outbreak of the epidemic in this village, 24 cases have occurred, of which 10 have proved fatal. Of the remaining 14 cases, some of which are diarrhoea, the greater portion are ex pected to recover. Every exertion has been made by the board of guardians of Sedgefield union, and also by the owners of Trimdon colliery, to arrest the virulence of the epidemic, by rendering proper attention to the sick, and adopting such precautionary measures as can be devised to stay its further progress. A house-to ho,use visitation was commenced on Saturday through. out the village.—Newcastle Guardian.

The SPEAKER took the chair at ten minutea after 12 o'clock. BOROUGH RATES BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. SALE OF BEER, &c., BILL. On the motion for the third reading of this bill, Mr. HENRY BERKELEY objected to the bill as interfering with the enjoyments of the poorer classes on Sundays, as it would deprive them of obtaining refresh ment after one o'clock. That which was sin in the poor man was virtue in others, or why were the London clubs and large hotels at Richmond, Blackwall, and Greenwich, not closed with the rural taverns on Sun days. This one-sided legislation was a disgrace to Par liament ; it was mainly directed against the excursion trains, the travellers by which were not treated as tra vellers, according to the statute, and thus by this bill they would be unable to obtain refreshment in the country. Mr. WILSON PATTEN said the bill dealt equally with the rich and the poor, and the time for opening public houses on Sundays had been extended expressly to meet the case of excursion trains. After some observations from Mr. L. HEYWORTH and Lord D. STUART, _ _ _ Mr. W. J. FOX complained that, if this bill passed, the present ruling of the Police Courts would shut out passengers by excursion trains from obtaining refresh ments in the middle of the day on Sundays. Mr. HENLEY said it was quite ridiculous and ab surd to say that a passenger by an excursion train was not a traveller. If he was not, he could not tell what the term traveller meant. The bill was then read a third time and passed. REFORMATORY SCHOOLS (SCOTLAND) BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. ECCLESIASTICAL JURISDICTION BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. INCLOSURE OF LANDS BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. COMMON, &c., RIGHTS (ORDNANCE) BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. FRIENDLY SOCIETIES CONTINUANCE BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. MEDICAL GRADUATES (IRELAND AND SCOT LAND) BILL. On the motion for the third reading of the bill, Mr. GOULBURN hoped the bill would be post poned, or that an opportunity would be given for dis cussing its provisions. Colonel DUNNE, who had charge of the bill, de clined to accede to this request. Mr. E. LOCKHART moved that the bill be read a third time this day three months. Mr. CRAUFURD seconded the amendment. Lord NAAS supported the bill, contending that it was sufficiently discussed upon the third reading of the London University Bill. Mr. ELLIOTT said the bill would be most unpalata bleto the people of Scotland. After a brief conversation, Lord J. RUSSELL approved of the bill, but at the same time heithought it would be better to postpone its discussion until Wednesday next, when his noble friend at the head of the Home Department would be in his place: He therefore moved the adjournment of the debate accordingly. Colonel DUNNE objected to any adjournment, and insisted upon going to a division on that question, as it was evident the Government were anxious to commit a breach of faith in this matter. The house divided, when there appeared — For the adjournment Against it 43 Majority The debate was then adjourned until Wednesday next. SPIRITS (IRELAND) BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. BURIALS BEYOND THE METROPOLIS BILL. - On the motion for the third reading of the bill, Mr. HADFIELD moved an adjournment until Mon day, which was seconded by Mr. Frewen, but ulti mately this amendment was withdrawn, and the bill was read a third time and passed. BRIBERY BILL. The committee on this bill was then resumed. The original bill having been got through, Lord J. RUSSELL moved the insertion of the fol lowing clause, viz. :—" And whereas doubts have arisen as to whether the payment of the expenses of conveying voters to and from the poll, as also the giving of re freshment to voters on the day of nomination or day of polling, be or be not according to law, and it is expedient that such doubts should be removed, and that the law should be settled in these particulars, be it declared and enacted, that from and after the passing of this act, it shall be lawful for any candidate or other person, subject always to the provisions of this act as to the payment of election expenses, to pay or cause to be paid the actual and rea sonable expenses of bringing any voters to the poll." Lord R. GROSVENOR opposed the clause on prin ciple, and declared his intention to take the sense of the committee upon it. Mr. L. HEYWORTH objected to the clause as open ing a door to bribery and corruption of the worst kind. Mr. V. SMITH was afraid this clause, like the whole bill, would only have the effect of legalising wholesale bribery, and severely punishing retail bribery. Mr. CRAUFURD moved as an amendment, to insert in the clause, after the word "shall," the word "not," so as to make travelling expenses illegal. If the com mittee assented to this amendment he should then move the omission of the words "actual" and "reasonable." After some discussion, in the course of which it was contended that this clause would make the payment of thesg expenses compulsory where it was now optional, \lr. FITZGERALD agreed that the preamble was untrue, because there could be no doubt that, under the existing law, a candidate could legally pay the reason able expenses of bringing voters to the poll if he ■o thought fit. Mr. CAYLEY said he believed it would ultimately be discovered that the real solution of this question was to live the votes collected at the residences of the elec- , tors. After some further discussion, it was agreed to strike out of the clause the words " as also the giving of refresh ments to voters on the day of nomination and on the day of polling." The committee then divided on Mr. Craufurd's amend ment, when there appeared— For the amendment Against it Majority —6l The amendment was consequently rejected. The clause was then agreed to. Mr. HEADLAM then moved the following proviso to the clause :—" Provided always that it shall only be lawful at elections for boroughs for the candidate to pay the expenses of bringing up to the poll from their resi dences within the borough, or, with respect to freemen, from their residences within seven miles from the borough, of aged or infirm voters, and reasonable pay ments for the purpose shall be legal." After some discussion the committee divided, when there appeared— For the proviso Against it Majority On the question that the clause be added to the bill, the committee again divided, when there appeared— For the clause Against it 47 Majority The clause was accordingly added to the bill. Lord J. RUSSELL then moved the insertion of a clause to the effect, that the giving, or causing to be given, to any voter on the day of nomination or day polling, on account of such voter having polled, or being about to poll, any meat, drink, or enter tainment by way of refreshment, or any money or ticket to enable such voter to obtain refreshment, shall be held and be taken to amount to bribery or treating, as the case may be, within the meaning of this act. Mr. Walpole, Mr. Hildyard, Mr. Henley, and other hon. members suggested practical difficulties in the way of adopting the clause, and ultimately the clause was deferred for the report. Some other amendments were made in the bill, and it was finally passed through committee. The Admiralty Courts, the Highways (Public Health Act), and the Chancery Amendment Bills were consi dered as amended, and ordered to be read a third time. The Land Revenues of the Crown (Ireland) Bill, the Land lAssessed and Income Taxes Bill, and the Duchy of Cornwall Office Bill were passed through committee. The house then adjourned. ARRIVAL OF THE CHATHAM TROOP SHIP. FALMOUTH, Friday.—Put in, the Chatham troop ship, Captain Wharton, from Madras and the Mauritius, with invalids, bound to London. She lost 13 persons on her passage. After obtaining supplies of provisions she will proceed for London. Off, and landed a mail and passengers, the ship Queen of Sheba, Captain Heyston, from Port Adelaide for Lon don ; amount of gold on freight unknown. Also off port the troop-ship Flora, from London for Cork. STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian of Saturday.) MANCHESTER, July 21.—1 n yarns, the home con sumers are buying rather more, and the foreign merchants are executing their orders with somewhat greater freedom than was the case last week. The consequence is a harden ing tendencyin warps and cops, and to some extent also in bundles, particularly the lower counts for the Mediter ranean ; but in 16s to 24s water the want of a demand for China continues to be felt. In goods, we have also to report a slight indication of improvement, which shows itself in somewhat more of confidence and cheerfulness rather than in any noticeable increase of demand. BRADFORD, July 20.—Wools—The buyers are ope. rating with unusual caution, and only supply themselves for immediate use. Noils and brokes command good prices. Yarns—There is more doing in reeled yarns of all counts, and the stock in hand is very small. In spools the fluctuations are not so great, but many have been accepting orders in anticipation of average full bred wools being bought at 21s. per tod ; and at the prices now demanded for wool it is impossible to cover the c os t o f top. P i eces —Th e su pply is very low, an d there is no disposition to increase the quantity brought oratfd pinnursfi • to market. TRADE OF LEICESTER.--Hosiery—There is more busi ness doing to order, and confidence in prices is resumed. take large orders are tin in p fur future delivery. The Government order has given t heir rice noi will they • full employment to a great many opera trim RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. LONDON AND SOUTE-WESTERN. A special general meeting of the proprietors of this railway was held on Saturday morning in the Assembly rooms, York-road, Lambeth, to consider the Salisbury , and Yeovil Railway Bill. The attendance of share holders was pretty numerous. MT. Chaplin, the chair man of the company, was in the chair. The SECRETARY read a report, narrating the circum stances attending the progress of the Salisbury and Yeo vil Railway Bill through the House of Commons, and the proceedings taken in regard to it by the directors of this company, and containing the following statement as to the agreement proposed to be made between the two companies : "The arrangement, which it is prope9ed that this company shall make with the new company, on their obtaining their act without the objectionaLle running powers against which the company petitioned, is to make them an allowance in respect of all traffic brought by their line on to the South-Western line at Salis bury, provided such traffic be brought from a point on the Salisbury and Yeovil line, distant ten miles at least beyond, or west of Salisbury, and, also, that such traffic be conveyed the whole distance over the com pany'', line to London, or within ten miles of London. It is proposed that such allowance shall be 25 per cant. on the gross receipts by this company from such traffic, not in any year to exceed 5,000/. And that it shall cease altogether on the new company's gross traffic, on their own line, reaching 40,000/. during the time it is a single line ; or 45,000/. if the new line be made a double line ; and the term of such arrangement is limited to ten years, in conformity with the provisions of the act." The SOLICITOR read the clauses of the Salisbury and Yeovil Railway Bill affecting this company. These clauses empowered the Salisbury and Yeovil and Lon don and South-Western Railway Companies to enter into arrangements fur various purposes, and to renew such arrangements upon their expiration. The CLIAIIMAN WaS sure that the intelligence of the meet ing would show them that the construction of the Salis bury and Yeovil Railway, joining this line at Salisbury, multi increase the revenue of this railway, and the result would be attained without any cost to this company. He moved a resolution expressing the approval of the meeting of the Salisbury and Yeovil Railway Bill, sub ject to amendments. He also read, at the request of the meeting, a second resolution, expressing approval of the terms of agreement recommended in the report. A PROPRIETOR seconded the resolution. Mr. SNELL objected that the Salisbury and Yeovil Company was not one of such substance as would war rant this company in entering into close partnership with it. To a great extent that company was a fictitious one, and its shareholders sham shareholders and dummies. In confirmation of this assertion he referred to the report of the committee of the House of Commons, and the evidence adduced before that committee. [These refer ences excited a great deal of opposition, and for a short time much disorder prevailed.] Several persons who had subscribed as shareholders of the Salisbury and Yeovil Company had stated before the committee that they had an agreement with the solicitor of the company that they should not be responsible. The capital of the company was short of what would be required to make the line, and the company would therefore require ex traneous assistance. He doubled whether this line would bring - as much traffic upon the Scuth-Western line as was supposed, and at the same time he re minded the meeting that the proposed line would compete with three branches of this railway. That unsupplied districts should be supplied with railway commu nication was very desirable, but it ought not to be done at the cost of existing railways. It was urged that this undertaking was of national importance. If that were so, then go to the national exchequer. This company had led the railway world in opposition to extensions, and if they had remained firm to that prin. ciple, the Government must come forward to provide railways for the unsupplied districts. He concluded by moving an amendment disapproving of the clauses, and . instructing the directors to oppose any clauses conferring running powers upon the Salisbury and Yeovil Railway Company. The amendment was seconded by Mr. Woo"). Mr. CASTLEMAINE supported the original resolution, and contended that the solvency or insolvency of the Salisbury and Yeovil Company had nothing to do with the question under discussion, because if that company fell through, the proposed arrangement would fall through too. By that arrangement the income of this company could not suffer, because it was only asked to pay to the Salisbury and Yeovil Railway a' certain portion of a cer tain new revenue which that railway was to bring to this. Mr. :MORTIMER recalled the attention of the meeting from the proposed agreement to the first resolution ap• proving of the clauses. He recommended the meeting to adopt these clauses, and warned them that if they did not do so it was probable that more objectionable clauses would be inserted in the bill. Mr. HERAPATH also supported the clauses and the proposed agreement. Mr. TITS hoped that the meeting would agree to these clauses, which were the price of peace, and recommended Mr. Snell to withdraw his amendment. This company was in bad odour with Parliament. If there was an in clination in Parliament to be harsh towards any com pany, that feeling was entertained towards this one ; and if these clauses were rejected, the bill would be passed with clauses most perilous to this company. Before concluding, Mr. Tite referred to a rumour that the Great `Westin u fought its battles in that room—(cheer4)—and paid the expense of the contests. In answer to catego rical questions, Mr. Snell contradicted both these insi nuations. gergeant GASELEE appealed to Mr. Snell not to use proxies which he had obtained upon a representation that the agreement might be sanctioned by a bare ma jority, now that a provision had been inserted requiring the sanction of three-fifths of the shareholders to such an agrement. It did not signify to the South-Western Company whether or not the Salisbury and Yeovil were a good company. He was convinced that the company could suffer no injury from these permissive clauses, and warned the meeting that if they rejected these clauses, Parliament would probably give the Salisbury and Yeovil Railway Company much more objectionable powers. Mr. PUNCHER recommended Mr. Snell to withdraw his amendment. Mr. SNELL said that lie should himself vote against the clauses, but he felt that, under the circumstances, he should not be justified in using the proxies which he had obtained. After communicating with the seconder of his amendment, he consented to withdraw it, and not to oppose the motion. The original resolution was then put, and agreed to with only one dissentient. The CHAIRMAN then moved the second resolution, approving of the agreement set forth in the report. After some rather irregular discussion, Mr. PUNCHER desired that the agreement should be printed and circulated before the shareholders were called upon to decide upon its rejection or acceptance. (No, no.) Mr. SNELL, thinking that it was not necessary to con sider the terms of the agreement, which had not been accepted by the Salisbury and Yeovil Railway Company at present, moved the adjournment of the meeting for a fortnight. The CEIAIRIIAN explained that, unless the Salisbury and Yeovil Company had some security for what they were to receive from the company, they would not be satisfied with the clause which the meeting had just approved. Mr. TrrE urged the immediate confirmation of the agreement. sergeant GAMLEN recommended the meeting to sanc tion the agreement, as the least onerous which they could make. Mr. LOCKE informed the shareholders that he did not approve of the terms of the agreement. Mr. SNELL withdrew the motion for adjournment. The resolution was put and agreed to. After a vote of thanks to the Chairman, the proceed ings terminated, having lasted three hours. LONDON, BRIGHTON, AND S OUTH COAST. The report of th e di rec tors to be prese nted at the ensuing half -yearly meeting states that the capital ac count for the half-year ending 30th June, shows that the amount of capital raised to the 30th June, 1854, is 7, 439 , 6151 ., consisting of mortg a g e debt, 1,786,385/. ; preference capital, 1,037, 5961 . ; consolidated stock, 4,615,634/. ; total, 7,43 9 , 6151 . Th e total amount ex pended duri ng th e h a lf-year has been 95,158/. of which 65,2421. has b een e xpended on the f ourth line and the Crystal P a l ace b ra nch, and on th e London-brid ge terminus ; 12,515 on additiona l rollin g stock ; and 15,170/. on wor k s r endered necessa r y to p rovid e for the safety a n d con venience of the g eneral traffic, which is so rapidl y increasing.

These resolutions have been acted upon, and the directors anticipate no difficulty in raising the amount of capital which is at present required. The gross revenue for the half year has been 318,6937., showing an increase of 46,748/. over the corresponding half-year of 1853, which, it may be observed, was 23,136/. in excess of the cur. responding h a lf-year of 1852. The increase of the pas senger traffic of the line amounts to 36,269/., a consider able portion of which arises from the Crystal Palace traffic, and from the great development of traffic on the Croydo n and Epsom line, caused indirectly by the con struction of the Crystal Palace. The goods traffic shows an increase of 10,588/. over the amount for, the corres ponding half-year of 1853. The details of the expenditure for the half-year are fully given in the usual comparison with the preceding and the corresponding half-year, which shows that in the half-year ending the 20th of June, 1853, the total traffic receipts, excluding cartag e, were 265,143/. ; the expenses, including 6,6961. for cartage, were 125,364/. In the next half-year the traffic receipts, including cart age, wer e 353,927 1 . ; the expenses, including 8,328/. for cartage, 148,3411. ; and in the last half-year the traffic receipts, also excluding cartage, were 307,366/. ; the ex penses, including cartage, 147,3341. The principal causes of increased expenditure arise from the great amount of work done, which has been even in a higher ratio than the increase of receipts, most of the additional traffic having been carried at low rates ; and, also, from the general rise in the price of coals, iron, and all articles which enter largely into the consumption of a railway company. only reii.Lins for the directors to cor.w...,t.fiate pr:,• prietors on the general prosperity of the company, and more especially on the very favourable results, which may be eonaidered as already realised, from the 'policy Qf aiding the establishment of that great national undertaking, the Crystal Palace, in the vicinity of this company's line of railway. The net amount at the credit of the revenue account for the half-year is 174,1181. ; whereof is ap- propriated for interest on the mortgage debt, &c,, 39,7421. ; for dividend on preference capital, 27,907 : total, 67,6491. ; leaving a balance of 106,4691. Out of which the directors recommend a dividend of 21. 6s. per cent. for the half-year, amounting to 106,1601., leaving a balance to the credit of the current half year of 3091. STOCKTON AND DARLINGTON. A special meeting of this company was held at Dar lington, on Friday, Mr. H. P. Smith in the chair, for the purpose of taking steps to raise 200,000/., as au thorised by the company's act of the present session. The CHAIRMAN briefly explained the object of the meeting, and The SECRETARY read a series of resolutions autho rising the creation of 8,000 shares of 251. each, the amount to be payable by instalments of 21. 10s. every half-year up to February, 1859. The shares are to be offered to the present holders of ordinary shares who are to be at liberty to pay in advance of calls, and recive 5 per cent. interest. The instalments called up are to receive equal dividends with the ordinary shares. The resolutions were passed, and the meeting se parated. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

LEEDS, July 21.—There has been a good business done in the Cloth-halls this week. On Saturday, in the white market, there was a brisk demand for seasonable goods, of which a large quantity changed owners ; and in the coloured hall a steady t ra d e was done. On Tues day a fair average business was done in both the Cloth halls. The trade in the warehouses is equally regu lar with that in the public market. There have been several buyers in the town this week, and the home trade houses have done a good business. HUDDERSFIELD, July 18.—The market to-day was generally thought to be flatter if anything. Wools have rather an upward tendency. Fancy vestings continue in dull request. ROCEIDALE, July 17.—We had a better demand for pieces to-day, and a greater willingness on the part of the merchants to purchase. There is not much doing in the wool market. The London wool sales have had their influence on this market. HALIFAX MARKET, July 15.—For some kinds of wool a little more money is asked, but generally we cannot quote decidedly higher prices for either yarn or the raw material. Lieut. General the Hon. H. E. Butler, father of the gallant defender of Silistria, has arrived in London, after a lengthened tour in Italy and other continental states. The gallant officer is deeply affected at the loss of his youngest son. He has two surviving sons in the army —one (alluded to recently by a special correspondent) in Turkey, the other in India. It is already proposed to erect n cenotaph to Captain Butler's memory in the churizh at Thomastown, county of Kilkenny, where so many of his ancestors sleep—a locality, by the way, so feelingly alluded to by Dean Swift in his remarks on TiiOnaaatnn.
