The practicability and ecortrir intselengeric ThpOn cc ... 311'41ff; !toads, having been filly established to the satis faction of eminent Engineers and scientific Gentlemen, who have given their attention to the subject, a Company is now forming, to lie incorporated under the name of " The London, Holy head, and Liverpool Steam Coach and Road Company." The Capital proposed is 350,0001.; to be raised in Shares of 20/. each. A Deposit of 2/. per Share to he paid, upon Subscribers being recorded as Shareholders, and no further sum to be called for until an Act of Parliament has been obtained. Although it has been satisfactorily pawed that Steam Carriages are capable of travelling on a well- formed Turn pike Road, with a speed which is unattainable by Horses on the same Road, yet the attention of the Company will be directed to such further improvement of the Line of Road they have selected, and particularly, in the first in stance, to that part of it between London and Birmingham, as will enable Locomotive Steam Carriages to proceed with still greater facility; and it is considered that this object may be attained by a comparatively small investment of Capital. Notice his, therefore, been given of an intended appli cation to Parliament, during the ensuing Session, for the purpose of obtaining power to re-construct and improve a portion of the present Road between London and Bir mingham. The Estimates for Improving the Road between Bir mingham and Liverpool, and between Birmingham and Holyhead, not having been completed in time to comply with the Standing Orders of the House of Commons, it has been determined to submit to the Public, in the first instance, that portion of the project which relates to the Road between London and Birmingham. The estimated cost of the proposed improvement of the Road—of Locomotive Engines—of Deficits and Water Stations —together with other charges contingent upon the measure, amounts to 350,0001.—as stated in detail in the Estimate subjoined hereto. The same Estimate also shows in detail the Daily Charge to he incurred in the hire and wear of Carriages, the repair of Steam Engines, the purchase of Fuel, and the payment of Engineers and Firemen, to which is also added the Expense of the Establishments at London, Birming ham, and the Depots, and a sum to be appropriated for the purchase of new Engines, amounting, in the whol-, to 2111. 2s. 6d. per diem. If to this sum be added Interest and Profit on the Capital, at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum, and a received sum for the future repair of the Road, the total Daily Charge, including Tolls, will be 375/. 17s. 6d. Whilst these Estimates of expenditure have been de duced from calculations of the extreme prices which might by any possibility be demanded and paid for the various works and services required, corroborated by offers of the most respectable tradesmen and manufacturers, as to the terms upon which they would be willing to contract for the supply of the materials and the performance of the work—the Estimated Return has been calculated, on an assumption that only five hundred daily passengers might travel in the Company's Carriages ;—the average number of persons travelling the same road by the present convey ances, being five hundred and fifty. The Rate of Speed at which the Company's Carriages will trawl, will only be limited by a due regard to the safety of the passengers ; and it is proposed that the prices of conveyance should be about one-half the present Fares by the Light Coaches. As these Estimates show a profit exceeding one hundred pounds per diem, in addition to the interest and profit on the sum expended in road making, which is to be secured by an a dditional toll on steam carriages, it has been deemed expedient to present them in fuller detail than has been adopted in any similar prospectus, in order that men of business and experience may the more readily form an idea of the practicability of the measure. It is proposed that the Directors should be elected by the Shareholders, under such regulations, as to qualifica tion and rotation of service, as may ultimately be agreed upon, but in the mean time a Provisional Committee hats been appointed for taking charge of the Bill in Parliament, and for arranging other preliminary measures.—Mr. W. R. Keith Douglas, Sir Andrew Agnew, Bart., M.P., and Mr. Henry H indley, M.P., having consented to become Trustees for the Company, accounts have been opened in their names with the several Bankers above-mentioned, to whom deposits are to be paid.

LONDON MARKETS. (From the" London New Price Current" of yesterday.) SUGAR.-The Sugar Market continued heavy 61 towards the close of last week, when the demand rather revived; the sales for the week are 2,800 hhds. and trs. ; no general reduction in the prices could he stated, but several parcels were bought a shade under the former cur rency. The Sugar Market is firmer the sales this day, including the Barbadoes public sale, are 900 hhds. and trs. ; there is no advance in prices, but the Market has a firm and healthy appearance. The stock of West India Sugar is now 38,123 hhds. and trs., being '7,866 more than last year. The Stock of Mauritius 75,840 bags, being 19,502 more than last year. The delivery of West India is 2,976 hhds. and trs., being 641 more than last year. The delivery of Mauritius is 2,943 bags, being 2,194 less than the corresponding week of 1832, The Refined Market was very dull last week, and the holders of fine crashed appear inclined to forward sales by submit ting to a further reduction of Is. a Is. 6d. ; several par cels were taken at 30s. 6d. and at 305. ; in other descrip tions there were few purchases reported. This afternoon the Market has a firmer appearance; for fine crashed 30s. and 30s. 6d. is offered, but still there are few actual sales. MAURITIUS SUGAR.-There was no alteration in Mau ritius Sugar last week. At public sale on Friday 1,022 bags were offeie n kd ins a few were lots goad quality 495. very low, and a large pro portions fully support ed tae previousprine.. a 525. 6d. a Ea fe st w ln s d i i a a m S e ug so ar ld s 2 last 2 EAST . v ‘ 6 . e ti e . kI a l.l: 2 l s eAr s e . , Squ a uG n i t d AeR e oT w n hs ied p es a ar r al c eb e l l ince s o;f Bengals at former prices. FOREIGN SUGAR.-The only sale of Foreign Sugar l s a u st g a a v r e , ek was a cargo of Bahia deliverab le in a Dutch p ort, the Brown 201 . , the White at 245. Avera g e price of only p saercwt. f Foreign Coffee last week was a small psrcel of very old Brazil at 555. 6d., and of East India some ord. Brown Sumatra 465. a 475. 6d. ; the good and fine ord.

Brandy is firm, lon account of the rise prices in France . Geneva is still Ineglected. TALLOW.-The apprehensions that the large fleet col lected at Cronstadt will winter in the Baltic become every day stronger, and it appears now to be the general opinion of the best informed merchants connected with Russia. The accounts are to the 28th November ; 170 to 180 sail were wind-bound at Croostadt, and there were six degrees of cold. The accounts from the lower ports of the Baltic reach to the 29th, wind at east and variable. The san guine speculators for the fall think it possible that under these circumstances the vessels may have sailed from Cron stadt, but in that case they would be put in peril by the gales experienced from the westward. The price this evening is 465. 6d. on the spot, and for all the year 465. 3d. Wind west. Istnico.-There is no alteration in Indigo. FRUIT.-There has been a considerable business in Figs, 58s. a 60e., and superior quality 655. The demand for common Fruit has been brisk, and large sales of Valentias are reported at 425.

IRISH PROVISIONS.-The last week's import of Fo. reign and Irish Butter was again moderate ; it consisted of 56 casks of Foreign, and 4,027 firks. of Irish, with 2,541 bales of Bacon ; there are, however, further arrivals ye , . terday of about 2,500 casks of Foreign, and 5,000 firkins of Irish Butter, with 2,000 hales of Bacon also. The market has continued and is still in that stagnant state so frequently described of late. A very large sale of Li merick Butter is stated to be made at a low price within the last three or four days by parties who are generally sanguine in looking for extreme prices; they may, how ever, have very substantial reasons for selling just new, hut in the face of a short import of about 40,000 firkins of Irish Butter, compare.! with what it was at this time last season, a much lighter stock in London, prices so considerably lower, and the prospects of sharp weather setting, which, in general, gives a little stimulus to the market, the sale above alluded to has caused some little consternation. The following we give as this day's nearest quotations for Butter, Bacon, &c., landed and on board, but many of them are nominal :- Friesland Butter at the quay 90s. a 925. per cwt. ; Car low 78s. a 82a. on board, 795. a 85s. landed ; Belfast 78s. a 795, on board, 80s, landed ; Waterford '7os. a '7ls. on board, '7ls. a 755. landed ; Cork, as to the selection of qualities, 7 Is. a 735. en board, 725. a 745. landed ; Li- Wo - a - rd, 66a. a 675. landed ; Newry 645. a 655., and Ban bridge 655. a 675. cn board for parcels now on passage.

Captain Campbell, of the 47th Regiment, died on Monday, in consequence of serious injuries by a fall from his horse, while bunting in the early part of the day near Mullingar.—Athlone Paper. At no time within the niPmory of the oldest inhabitant have so many instances of sudden death, and within so short a time, taken place here as the last ten or twelve days have presented. Cholera (so called) which snatched its victims from among the suburbs, at last showed itself in the town, and several grievous cases have attested its malignity. On Saturday night an industrious sober person was seized, and Sunday saw him buried. His disconsolate wife, grieving for her loss, amid a nume rous family, though in robust health, followed him the same day! No remarkable cases have terminated fatally towards the end of the week, and it is to be devoutfy trusted that the violence has terminated. While this fearful malady, however, has been doing its work, fever (typhus and scarlet) has not spared age nor sex. As an instance. we must not omit a most sorrowful visitation, which of itself should be alarming. A child of Mr. D. Arnot, jun., smith, died about eight days ago ; and on Saturday and Monday last his three remai n i ng i n f ants a ll fell before thy malignant disease. The general sympathy for this unhappy family, thus by one sudden stroke for ever dissolved, has been intense, and the funeral of the three last excited a gloomy interest. The burials of other children, who ha,, also died of this trouble, seemed unheeded and common place, on Wednesday last.--Edinburgh Paper. The LORD MAYOR—What ! separate her from her husband ? Kiimprsley—Oh, my Lord, her husband is in the hospital. 'lnc LORD MAYOR—And so you'd console the unfortunate man in the hospital by sending his wife and child away from him ? What rapid marches some of us make in humanity !—(A laugh.) The Irishwoman—l don't want to go to Ireland, my Lord. I know nobody there. I want to stay with my husband. The LORD MAYOR—To be sure you do, and yott .hall stay with him. I never heard of a more cruel proposition than that of separating these poor peo ple under such circumstances. Kinnersley had a painful duty to perform, but he was expected to go through with it. Nobody but a parish officer had any idea of the gross impositions practised. yi impositions s e i x t o e n expected ed carried The LORD MAYOR was quite aware or the nume that a int p o oo eff r e m cr a , i b l u ‘ t vi i t t h c a m b ;l r d ok n e o ri t r s o u u re s l leg could support his family without the assistance of the parish. His Lordship then peremptorily or dered that the woman and her child should be re lieved until the husband recovered so far as to be able to resume his labours. Two sailors' wives. nampri. ...t ageTRS to RlTRl;u.rpf_a.shir? in which their husbands were monthly notes given to them at parting. The young women said that their husbands went away from them fully impressed that not the most distant ob jection would be made to the payment of the notes. Upon applying, however, a plump refusal was given, and they were advised then to represent the cir cumstances to the Chief Magistrate. . _ The LORD MAYOR asked '‘vhen the husbands of the complainants were expected home ? The young women said that the ship had gone to New York, and intended to go on a trading voyage, which would probably detain them two or three years. The LORD MAYOR having sent to the agents, gentleman from their office attended, and his Lord ship requested to know why the wives of the sea men were treated as had been described. The agent said that Mr. Hawkins, of Hull, who was the owner of the ship, had instructed his agents in London not to pay the monthly notes. They were therefore obliged to refuse the young women, because, if after having received such an order they honoured the notes, they never would be reimbursed by the owner. The LORD MAYOR—This is most cruel treat ment. Able young men are induced by you to go upon a long voyage, under the conviction that their wives shall have support in their absence, and the moment they get to sea you deny to their poor wives what they had every right to expect. The agent would at once write to the owner upon the subject. The LORD MAYOR—Very well. Let me know the result. BOW-STREET. MASQUERADE FROLlCS.—Yesterday Messrs. John Smith, William Johnstone, Michael Hanley, and some other young gentlemen, of all ages and nations, including a Frenchman, three Irishmen, and a Scotchman, were placed at the bar before Sir F. RoE, charged with "kicking up a row," at half past three yesterday morning, at the Lowther Rooms, at which a masquerade was given the pre- ceding night. All the defendants, in a state approaching" happy forgetfulness," went into the rooms named at the above hour intending to frolic out the morning at the masquerade; but some disagreement arising as to the terms of admission, they (to use the language of an eye-witness) " kicked up a shindy," the Irishmen evidently imagining themselves at their own dear Donnybrook. They were introduced to some police cons►ables, who very properly provided them with quarters for the remainder of the morn ing ; and, gushed with the Tuscan grape and hardly still quite sober, they were placed to answer for their doings before the worthy Magistrate. They did not deny the fact imputed, and, after a gentle admonition, some were fitted for drunkenness, and some discharged without mulct. Mr. John Smirh wished to know if he was to receive no compensation for the hours he had spent in the watchhouse; but Sir FREDERICK telling him he bad been treated " in the most legal manner," he did not persevere in this line of interrogatory, but left the office with his companions. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Sarah Butler, the woman whose case we detailed a few days since of imposing upon several of the Nobility and Gentry, was placed at the bar for re examination. Out of the charges against her one alone has been taken, that of imposing upon Mary Madden, a servant at the Quadrant Hotel, Regent street.—She was fully committed for trial. MAR YLEB OXE. A BEGGING LETTER IMPOSTER.—WiIIiam Stein. berg, alias Nartindoff, and Robert, his son, a boy about fourteen years of age, were yesterday placed at the bar for re-examination, charged with robbing their ready-furnished lodgings. Mr. James Hallett, No. 1, Charles-street, Port man-square, stated that the prisoners and the wife of the man took lodgings in his house about a month ago, which they left in the middle of last week, without having paid any rent. On entering the bed room they had occupied, he missed two blankets and a bolster, which he found had been pledged at the shop of Mr. Cottrell, pawnbroker, Oxford street. He immediately gave information to the police, who succeeded in taking the prisoners into custody. Sergeant Godwin, D 7, said, from information he received he apprehended the two prisoners at a public-house in Bear-street, Leicester-square, on Friday evening last; on the eldest prisoner he found duplicates for property pledged, some of which be longed to Mr. Hallett ; he also found on him letters which clearly showed that he obtained money from the nobility and gentry, by representing to them that he was a person who, from misfortunes, had a claim to their kindness and compassion. One of the letters was directed to Charles Woodford, Esq., Mount-street, Grosvenor-square, and ran as follows : " Honoured Sir,—Pardon a distressed man for having taken the liberty to address himself to your honour. I beg you will accept my sincere thanks for the kind pro tection you have hitherto afforded me. I suffered a great deal in my voyage to Russia, where I accompanied a gen tleman. I had the misfortune to be run over by a car riage, by which accident I was so much injured, as to be unable to continue my journey. After having been cured I was obliged to return to England on foot to my wife and chillren, whom I found in great distress, in conse quence of my having been fifteen months absent. In this deplorable situation, I have taken the liberty to make application to your humanity, and I humbly solicit you, honoured Sir, for a small donation, for which I shall be ever grateful, and we will pray for your prosperity. --I retnain, honoured Sir, your most obedient servant, " WASSILI NARTINDOFF." Sergeant Godwin added that he had waited on Mr. Woodford, who said the prisoner ha d g rossly im posed on his charity for the last ye ar and a half,but that the prisoner alway s signed h is name Steinberg. the prisoner) hat is the reason of that ? Prisoner —I'm a German ; my name is Steinberg, but iti the Russian language Nattindoff.
