The Secretary read the report, and the Chairman moved its adoption. Mr. IRONSIDE inquired whether the Blackburn Valley branch would be opened for passengers as well as for coal traffic, and when ? The CHAIRMAN replied that it would be opened for both on Monday next. Mr. TRONSIDH hoped they would give every company the privilege of working over the line, that Sheffield might be better supplied with coals. The report was adopted unanimously, as also were resolutions declaring the dividend f)r the half-year. After some obs , ,rvationx, the arrangements with the Great Northern specified in the report were adopted. A vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the business.. MANCHESTER, BUXTON, AND MIDLANDS. The half yearly meeting of this company was held at Derby yesterday ; Sir Joseph Paxton presiding. The report stated that the hal;•year's rent, amounting to 5,266/., had been received from the lessees, and the directors proposed to pay the usual dividend of ls. 4d. Der share for the half-year. During the last session of Parliament an act had been obtained by a company in corporated as the Stockport, Disley, and Wha!ey-bridge Company, for constructing a line of railway of about 10 tulles, and passing over the same ground as the line for which this company obtained Parliamentary powers. A dividend of ls. 4d. per share was then declared, and the election of Mr. Condell, as director, confirmed. A vote of thanks was then passed to the chairman and directors, and the meeting separated.

It was hoped that the first 30 mil line would b e o p ened for traffic in a few "of the months, w h en a considerable business in the carria g e of timber wo uld immediately commence. The directors, acting d authority given the m, had raised 7,5001. in anti cipation r of calls, in order to sustain the contractors. The direc tors had been anxiou sl y en g a g ed for some time p ast h negotiations for the increase of capital required to coin. plete the works and to provide the rolling stock, and this subject would occupy their best attention during the next session of the colonial legislature. • The statement of accounts showed a balance in hand of 2,383/. The CHAIRMAN briefly moved that the report and statement of accounts be adopted. Mr. W. S. FEATHERSTONE seconded theimotion, which was agreed to. After some other formal business, the meTting separated. Mr. Pullen, instructed by Mr. Corner, appeared for Mr, Pillow and Messrs. Fenning ; and Mr. Stutchbury, from Vie office of the City Solicitor, appeared to prose cute the charges. The latter gentleman stated that the present charges were made under the 21st section of the bye-laws passed in 1851, and sanctioned by the Lord Chief Justice, for the government of the harbour-master of the port of London, which rendered the parties so offending liable to a penalty of Si. The section set forth that no vessel should be moored in the inshore passages, &c., on the River Thames, so as to obstruct the free transit of ve , ,- sels in the said river, &c. Now, on the 23d and 24th ❑ltimo, the defendant, Mr. Pillow, moored, or caused to he moored, a barge called the Camel across the stairs on the east side of London-bridge, adjoining Fenning's wharf, so as to obstruct the free navigation of all vessels, and preventing the landing passengers from boats that may want to use those stairs. He was therefore guilty of the offence imputed to him, and it would he for his worship, after hearing all the evidence, to inflict what ever penalty he might think fit. Witnesses were then called, who deposed to the exist ence of the obstruction on the day named. They were cross-examined to show that the passage of the river was not impeded. Mr. Pullen then submitted to the court that there w as no p roo f o f obstructing, and asked hiru to dismiss the summon- , at once. The object of the Act of Parlia ment and the bye-laws was that a free channel shall be kept in the River Thames, and it had nothing whatever to in between high sod low-water mark. Mr. Combs, in giving judgment, said the case was quite clear, and it was a waste of time to come to him. The simple question is whether the free trinsit of the river was clear, and that an obstruction had taken place. The place had been ni , a-mred, and all admitted the ot)- strnction, and en doubt, the transit of the river was blocked up. The stairs and that part were the public ways, and mug be kept clear. If a pier were to he erected or placed there it would be a greater obgrue• tion, but the hirbour master could take it down and remove it, as he might have done in this case. There fore I think a nominal sum will do to meet the case, and prevent any further aggression by any party. I shall fine the defendant in the mitigated penalty of 20s. and costs, and I hopA the harbour master will do his duty should another obstruction be attempted, and that the peace of the neighbourhood be not disturbed. The fine and costs was immediately paid, and Mr. Ha-lewood declared, notwithstanding his worship's opinion, it was their intention to construct the pier. He had the authority of the Lord Mayor, and that was enough. Mr. Combe—Yon must not commit a breach of the peace, and I have no doubt the harbour master will do his duty. ED MONTON.—Yesterday Mr. James Bruce, licensed victualler and proprietor of the Two Brewers, lanner's end, Enfiel , :, appeared before Messrs. Bush (chairman), and James Meyer, magistrates of this division, to a summons taken out against him by Sergeant Barber, acting inspector of the district, for having permitted per sons in his house between the hours of half-past two and six o'clock of the afternoon of Sunday, the 27th ult., contrary to the statute. In answer to the bench, the sergeant stated that the persons were all strangers to him. Mr. Norton, for his client, observed that his defence was that the persons in the defendant's house were bona fide travellers, within the meaning of the act, as he would be able to prove that they all came from London. One of the four who were on the premises proved that they all came from London. The Chairman observed that the bench decided they to were travellers, a n d h e remar k e d t h a t t h e po li ce oug ht endeavour to ascertain who were and who were not ti avellera.

DONCASTER RACES.—These races, which will com mence on the 12th inst., promises abundant sport, the entries being excellent, and the amount of added money unusually large-1,600 guineas. Applications for lodg ings have not been made so early as in former years, but within the last day or two numerous engagements have been made and every post is adding to the number. There will, doubtless, he a falling off in one class of visitors at the approachinv meeting ; we mean the military turftnen, so many of whom are en gaged abroad, but the quickening. of harve-t operations by the present splendid weather, the increased facilities of railway communication, and the attractions of an " open" Leger will doubtless have their effect upon the attendance, which in point of hulk will not prohibly be inferior to what it has been of late years. Considerable alterations are now twin! effected i❑ the interior of the grand stand, and some additional accommo•lation is beli; male in the enclosure in front of that building, both of which improvements will tend to prevent much of that over-crowding and confusion which usually take place immediately after the decision of the more important events of the week. The Electric Telegraph Compaq will have a direct communication with all parts of the country from their office in the clerk of the course's stand. THE FIRST OF SEPTEMBER.—The accounts from the Midland Counties represent the game as unusually abundant this season. Partridges are very strong, and the coveys are large—fourteen to twenty in a covey. This is attributed to two causes—the scarcity of last sea,on leading gentlemen to abstain from shooting, and Vie unusual favourable season fur hatching this year. Hares are plentiful—too plentiful for the farmers—and pheasants are strong. CONSUMPTION OF WINES IN THE UNITED KINGDOM.— From a Parliamentary paper just published it would ap pear that, although the population of the united king dom has almost doubled itself durirns the present cen tury, the quantity of foreign and colonial wine con sumed has decreased rather than increased during that period. In the year 1800, 7,224,752 gallons of foreign and colonial wines were charged with duty for home consumption, hut in 1853 only 6,813.830 gallons were so charged. In the intervening years the consumption has fluctuated between the two amounts, rarely rising to the higher one, but frequently falling below the lower. The largest consumption was in 1803, when 8,226,464 gallons were charged with duty. Only one other year, 1825, registers 8.000,000 gallons, and after 1800 only three years, 1802, 1828, and 1839, reach even to 7,000,000 gallons. The lowest consumption was in the year 1816, when only 4,057.038 gallons appear to have paid duty, whereof 3,698,998 gallons were foreign, and 358.040 gallons colonial wines. THE EDUCATION QUESTION. —This important subject is at present occupying a large share of public attention in the provinces, and, indeed, promises to be the leading topic for discussion during the recess, to the exclusion of almost Avery other topic. The value of trained teachers and competent masters in the rural and manufacturing districts is already recognised throughout the kingdom ; but in no district has the machinery which supplies them been more practically appreciated than in the West of England. In the city of Exeter local benevolence, with the mutual help of the friebds of education in Devon and Cornwall, has raised a training institution of noble pro portions, which is now nearly completed, and intended to be formally opened in the middle of October next. The work has been carried out through the co-operation of parties of all shades of politics, whose object was the promotion of an educational establishment for school. masters and mistresses which should be worthy of the western district ; and the large number of pupils in the 'present training-school renders an early occupation of the now building absolutely necessary. The Lord B shop of Exeter has consented to preach on the occasion, and the LordeLieutenant of the county, Earl Fortcseue, will preside at the dinner. The Right Hon.

Cox in the chair, when the question of the brokerage on sugar came under consideration. The total import of sugar into Liverpool in 1853 was stated to be 66,500 tons, of which 41.000 tons were colonial, and 25.500 tons foreign (of the bonded value of 1.330.0001.), the brokerage on which, at one-half per cent. on the duty paid price (valuing the former at 325. and the latter at 20s. per cwt.), amounted to 9,1101. gross. Presuming the same quantity of sugar to be sold at the bonded price, the amount of brokerage thereon, at one-half per cent., would be 6,6501. A resolution to the following effect was adopted unanimously :—That a brokerage of one-half per cent. upon the bonded price is inadequate to the service performed, and to the expenses indispensably attendant upon the management and sale ; and that a deputation from this meeting shall wait upon the chair men of the different associations intere-ted, to pro poce that for the future the following rates of broker size on the sale of sugar shall be allowed :—Either oue half per cent. on duly paid price, or three-qitaiiers rer cent. on the I.oneled price, aed one-h-elf per cent. on the 81101 t price of .11 fl.Jatii.g e.trgees And that a copy of these proces.dinl,s he transmitted to all the imnortere of sugar. It is said that the brokers are firm. and that the suggested compromhe of five-eighths has been rejected una:iiittou4y.— Liverpool M ercury.

ELOPEMENT AND SEDUCTION. —An extraordinary case of elopement and seduction has within - the last few days been brought before the magistrates at Bath. It appears that about the.latter end of April or the beginni , g of May, Mr. Jones, livery stable -keeper, at Weston-super- Mare, had a daughter, who employed her time in dress making, being engaged by the most respectable persons in the town. While she was so employed at the house of a lady, a note was taken to her by a ragged bly to meet a man called Pearce, with whom she was familiar, in what was called " the Lover's Walk." She accord ingly did so, and was taken away in a cart, on the pre tence that she was going to a pic-nic,' but nothing was heard of her till a few days since, when her family dis covered her at the Railway Station Tavern, Bath, where stn., and Pearce had been living together as man and wife for several months. Her father and brother went there to her, and persuaded her to leave; but the landlord in terfered, saying that she was of the Queen's aze, an d could not be molestel. He also struck her brother. In the midst of the excitement which occurred the young woman took u p a carving knife, and was in the act of dashing it into her side, when her hand was arrested I,y a person st an di n g near. The landlord then succeeded in Pushing the father and brother out of the house ; and by the tim e they had returned with a puticeman their relative had been spirited away, and nothinv has eee I , E.arc.l of her.

The revenue was going on steadily increasing, and the works and plant were in an efficient and perfect state. The capital account remained nearly in the same state as formerly ; they were, however, gradually going on de eireaging the liabilities.
