Office of the Company, 4, Barge-yard, Bucklersbury. The Westminster and Deptford Railway is intended to com mence from the foot of Westminster-bridge, en the Surrey side ; whence after a very slight curve, to avoid interfering with the Arch bishop of Canterbury's ground., it will proceed in a straight line to the northern border of Kennington Common, and thence, via Camberwell and Peckham, intersecting and joining in its course the London and Croydon Railway, to join the London and Greenwich Railway at the Deptford depot. The Westminster and Deptford Railway will thus form the nearest and most direct communication between the Western and South-Western districts of the Metropolis, and the populous and wealthy districts of Greenwich, Woolwich, Blackheath, Deptford, Kennington, Camberwell, Peckham, Dulwich, Croydon, and their vicinities. It will afford to the inhabitants of Clapham, Brixton, &c., increased facilities of conveyance, by a junction near the end of the Vassal-road, or at Kennington. It will become the great Western entrance to London of all the Railways about to be con structed South and South-east of the Metropolis ; and, by means of a short Railway about to be made from the London and Greenwich Railway to Deptford Pier, it will form by far the nearest and most direct communication between the Thames at Deptford and the-Thytmes-at Wertlinsterbridge, - thereby avoiding a long and dangerous intermediate navigation. The Prospectus of this Company is now ready for delivery. The Shares will bo allocated under the superintendence of the Directors.

RESOLUTIONS on the WITHDRAWMENT of the MINISTERS and DEPUTIES of the PRESBY TERIAN DENOMINATION, from the General Bodies of. M inisters and Deputies of the Three Denominations. At an AGGREGATE MEETING of MINISTERS and DEPUTIES of the PRESBYTERIAN DENOMINATION, n and about London and Westminster, and of the Committee and other Members of " the Association of English Presbyterians and others, holding the right of the free and unlimited exercise of private judgment in matters of Religion, and of full Christian Communion on the great principle of the Divine Mission of our Lord, without any other Doctrinal Test whatever," held at Dr. Williams's Library, Red Cross-street, London, on the sth day of March, 183'i. RICHARD POTTER, Esq., M.P., in the Chair, The following Resolutions of the Body of Ministers of the Presby terian Denomination, in and about London, were read : " At an Extraordinary Meeting of the Body of Presbyterian Mi nisters, specially convened to t a k e i n t o consi d erat i on t h e necess i ty of this Body withdrawing from the two other of the Three Bodies constituting the General Body of the Ministers of the Three De nominations, residing in and about the Cities of London and Westminster, held at Dr. Williams's Library, Red Cross-street, on the 4th of March, 1836, " The Rev. JOSEPH HUTTON, LL.D. in the Chair, " Resolved,—That this Body, being one of the Three Bodies which constitute the General Body of Protestant Dissenting Mi nisters of the Three Denominations in and about the Cities of London and Westminster, feels itself impelled, at the present crisis, to take prompt and decisive measures for the assertion of its independence and the preservation of its rights and privileges. " That the Three Bodies of Protest ant Dissenting Ministers formed themselves into an United Body, upwards of a century ago, for the maintenance and extension of civil and religious liberty, upon the understanding and engagement that the Bodies should not call in question or interfere with each other's religious opinions and doctrines; the only terms of association, with regard to individual members of the respective Bodies, being their standing accepted and approved' in their several denominations. " That, notwithstanding known differences of judgment in re ligious matters between the Three Bodies, and, in some instances, between the members of the same Body, the Catholic principle of the Union was, for a very long period, sacredly observed, and the United Body consequently proceeded in peace and harmony, and by their cordial co-operation rendered eminent services to the cause of religious liberty; the Presbyterian Body being certainly not behind the two others in zeal and exertion. " That we lament that, within these few years, the Catholic principle of union has been infringed, by allowed reference, at general meetings and in public proceedings, to doctrinal differences subsisting between the Bodies, and th members of the same Body, accompanied by reflections and insinuations, to the prejudice particularly of the Presbyterian Body. " That we record with pain, that at the last election of the Secretary to the General Body, a most valuable and universally respected member of this Body, who had by the suffrages of the United Body filled the secretaryship for seven years, with such punctuality, diligence, and ability as procured for him the warm thanks, often repeated, of the whole Body, was set aside, on the ground, openly alleged, and even declared in print, of his religious views on points of doctrine, and those of the Body to rvhich he belongs, not being consonant to those of the majority of the Three Denominations. " That we perceive with feelings of deep regret the same spirit of intolerance and exclusion in the resolutio n of the Antipwdo baptist Body, not to admit to membership hereafter any ministers, though hitherto eligible, who shall not profess certain articles of religious belief; and in the subsequent determination of the Gene ral Body, upon the appeal of the aggrieved party, to take no mea sure for the relief of ministers who may be thus proscribed for con science sake. " That our serious attention has been also, and o f necess i ty, drawn to vario us public proceedings of individual s an d part i es of the t wo other denominations; proceedings notoriously assisted by certain leading ministers of one at least of those denominations,— openl y applauded by others,—and approved, it is apprehended, by the greater part of them,—the object or sure tendency of which is to degrade the English Presbyterians in public estimation ? to tie prive them of rights atid.ptivileges until this period never disputed, ittid bVeri to revive agd.hist theta; by means of legal technicalities, the penal statutes; which thf wisdmii and jiistice of the legiSlature had t'epealed, to the Otititifitetidn and joy of all enlightetied'rtten ih the hatinfi, and so far to thrust them out of the pale of civil protection. " That, contemplating theta , . . prOceedings and Various indic a ti ons of the disposititill Of the majority of the Members of the United Body of Ministers, we cannot entertain a doubt that it is the wish and purpose of such majority eventually to exclude the Presbyterian Body from the Union, or to make its relative position such as no religious body, alive to its own dignity, could consent to occupy. " That, therefore, We feel it to be an imperative though painful duty,—imposed upon us equally by regard to our own character as Protestant Dissenting Ministers, who hold it to be one of the in alienable rights of conscience, that no man shall, without his own consent, be answerable to another for his honest judgment upon the sense of the Holy Scriptures, by respect for the memory of those that went before us and laid the foundation of our freedom, and by regard to the welfare of those that shall come after us,-.-to with draw as a Body from an Union, the compact of which has been violated, and in which we can pee no prospect of equal and peaceful co-operation, or of real and effective service to the interests of re ligious liberty :—our regret, however, is lessened by the pleasing reflection that the original purpose of the Union has been, in gr e at part, accomplish e d by th e ex t ens i on o f t h e lib ert i es of Protestant Dissenters, under the sway of the august Family now upon the Throne of these Realms,—and by the conviction that, fur what remains to be desired for the complete emancipation of conicietioe, we are justified by recent experience in placing entire confidence in his Majesty's present enlightened and liberal Government, which voluntary proffers from the Throne concessions to religious freedom which our fathers prayed for with faint hopes of success. " In declaring, as we now do, the Union of the Ministers of the Three Denominations dissolved, and in resolving to proceed here after in our single capacity as the Presbyterian Body of Ministers, unless an alteration in the spirit of the Bodies with which we were lately associated should make reunion practicable and desirable,— we disavow all angry an d hostile feelin s --we tender to the two ether denomi na ti ons , w ose Members we, ai indivi duals, are and still hope to be United in the bonds of Christian esteem, our sincere wishes for their usefulness in the cause of free dom, truth and virtue ;—we preserve our sincere disposition to co operate individually with the members of the other denominations in works of charity, in so far as doctrinal distinctions are kept out of sight, and all pasties meet on terms of equality and amity;—and conscious that we have done nothing as a body to provoke this un happy separation, but, on the contrary, have attempted everything in our power to resist and retard it, we are willing to abide by the judgment of moderate and candid men in the Two other Bodies, of the Protestant Dissenters throughout the kingdom, of our coun trymen at large, and of posterity, upon this our deliberate and solemn act." And the following Resolutions, received from a Meeting of the Deputies of the Presbyterian Denomination, were also read : " At a Meeting of the Deputies of Congregations of the Presby terian Denomination, (appointed in January last to form part of the general Body of Deputies of the Protestant Dis senters of the Three Denominations in and about London,) held the sth day of March, 1836, " JAMES GIBSON, Esq., in the Chair, " Resolved, " That the Union of the Body of London Minisetrs, and that also of the Deputies of the Three Denominations of Protestant Dissen ters, were formed more than a hundred years ago, and have, till lately, been uniformly considered to be b ase d an d con d ucte d on t h e footing of the perfect independence and equality of each denomina tion,—to have for their object the promotion of the broad and ack nowledged principle of Nonconformity,—and to have no reference whatever to doctrinal opinions, distinctions, or qualifications. " That before and at the time of the formation of these volun tary associations, the English Dissenters of the Presbyterian Deno mination had publicly asserted, and have ever since maintained, the principle of perfect freedom of investigation in matters of religion, and of resistance to every species of restraint upon or interference with a complete liberty of action upon the results of such investigation. " That, in the earliest period of these associations, and down to the present time, the result of this principle of action among the Presbyterians has been, that many of their Ministers and Laymen have, from time to time, adopted doctrinal !opinions differing more or less widely from the Calvinistic standard. " That notwithstanding such known diversity of opinion, and the departure of the English Presbyterians in many particular! , from those forms of church discipline in which their name origi nated, the identity and succession of their ministers and congrega tions ha ve b een , on a ll occasions, formally and officially recognised by the other constituent parts of the bodies with winch they have been connected. " That this Meeting laments to have witnessed, within a short period, (and particularly since the establishment of the civil and social rights of Protestant Dissenters by the repeal of the Corpora tion and Test Acts,) a continued and obvious disposition on the part of many members of the other denominations to act upon ex clusive distinctions,—subversive of the equality and independence of such portions of the aggregate Dissenting Societies as do not co incide with the doctrinal creed of the majority,—hostile to the prin ciples on which they have combined their efforts and contributions, --and constantly tending to the depression and degradation of the Presbyterian denomination in particular. " That open challenge has of late been repeatedly and publicly made of the title and identity of the ministers and congregations hitherto invariably rec ogn i se d as compos i ng t h e Presbytrian De nomination ; and that legal proceedings have been successfully in stituted by Dissenters, founded on the denial of such title and identity, and seeking to inflict tho forfeiture and transfer of the endowments now held by Presbyterians, as the penalty for the ex ercise of their conscientious privileges as Christians and Protestant Dissenters. " That this adoption of proceedings operating as restraints upon the Christian liberty of congregations of another denomination is, in the opinion of this Meeting, wholly at variance with the princi ples which occasioned and justified the separation of Nonconformists from an established church ;—that such proceedings are mainly founded on inferences drawn from penal laws long since repealed, and which it is the duty of every consistent Dissenter to condemn and disregard;—that the consequences of their successful prosecu tion are personally vexatious and oppressive, in the highest degree, to those who have, for a long course of years, peaceably occupied the foundations of their ancestors ;—and that the injury is deeply aggravated by the attempt thus made to fix upon those ancestors exclusive intents, repugnant to their known principles of action, and opposed to the honest and consistent tenor of their lives and characters. " That the establishment of the legal principles thus invoked against Dissenters by their brethren, strikes at the root of that Protestant liberty for the attainment of which their forefathers made their noblest sacrifices to conscience ; and tends to convert every chapel, though founded for free and independent worship, into a petty establishment ; more objectionable than one connected with the State,—both in PRINCIPLE, because it is the work of men who profess to be free,—and in PRACTICE, because the State pos sesses the power and means of improvement in its institutions, while, on the other hand, the Dissenting trusts are to be doomed to continue perpetual and invariable. " That the community of feeling and principle which has been formerly assumed to characterize the associations of Protestant Dissenters being thus disturbed,—the freedom for which the Pres byterians have sought protection in such associations being attacked by those with whom they associated for mutual protection ;—and it being plainly necessary that they should direct their energies and resources towards their own defence, not provided for elsewhere ; this Meeting cannot but consider it useless and undesirable that the body to which they belong, should continue outwardly to main tain a connection which has ceased to have a common or consistent object, and which tends rather to strengthen an influence that ex perience shows may not improbably be directed against themselves. " That the deputies present, therefore, while they respect the characters and principles of many of those with whom they have so long co-operated, and while they greatly lament the necessity for the present proceeding, feel themselves imperatively called upon,— in conformity with the example of their respected Ministers, and with the prevalent feeling of their Co un t ry Brethren,—to ithdraw from the Deputies of the other two denominations, and, in so doing, to co-operate in the formation of a new union, founded on enlarged and consistent views, and directed to the maintenance of the great essential principles of Protestantism. " That this determination be forthwith communicated to the Chairman of the General Body of Deputies, and to the Aggregate Meeting of English Presbyterian Dissenters now about to be held." And it was thereupon Resolved, in and by the Aggregate ' Meetinff That this Meeting approves of the separate Resolutions of the two bodies of Ministers and Deputies of the Presbyterian Denomi nation now read, and of the determination which those Resolutions convey and explain. That the existing Associations of Ministers and of Deputies of the Three Denominations being so far dissolved by the withdraw . . ments communicated to and approved of by this Meting, it is ex pedient that such Ministers and Deputies should concur with the English Presbyterian Association in • maturing an effective Union, which shall have for its object the protection and promotion of their civil rights and interests, and shall be open to all those who are de sirous of concurring in the consistent practical assertion of the great principles of Nonconformity.

For twenty-five years has our peculiar treatment in cases of Nervous D e bility proved emi nently successful, and we have hitherto resisted the earnest solicitations of our patients to publish their cases in a public address: the following, however, has been so urgently pressed upon us by a medical friend, that we have yielded to an importunity sufficiently excusable by the gratitude it evinces:— " Dear Sirs—My fondest hopes are realized! Accept my most heart felt thanks; words are inadequate to express my unbounded gratitude.

F R 7 VIPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH.—Thi s is a Medicine of long tried efficacy for correcting all Dis orders of the St omac h and Bowels, the most common symptoms of which are Costiveness, Flatulency, Spasms, loss of Appetite, Sick Headache, Giddiness, Sense of Fullness after Meals, Dizziness of the Eyes, Drowsi. ness, and Pains in the stomach and Bowels. Indigestion, producing a Torpid State of the Liver, and a consequent Inactivity of the Bowels, causing a disorganizasion of every function of the frame, will, in this mot excellent preparation, by a little perseverance, be effectually removed. Two or three doses will convince the afflicted of its salutary effects. The stomach will speedily regain its strength ; a healthy action of the liver, To wels, and kidneys will rapidly take place ; and instead of listlessness, "at, pain, and j aun di ce d appearance , s t reng th, activity, and renewe d health, will be the quick result of taking this Medicine, according to the directions accompanying - each box. These Pills arc particul irly efficacious for Stomach Coughs, Col !s, Agues, Shortness of Breath, and all Obstructions in the Urinary Pas sages; and, if taken after too free an indulgencc at table, they quickly re store the system to its natural state of repose. Persons of a FULL HABIT, who are subject to Headache, Giddiness, Drowsiness, and Singing in the Ears, arising from too great a flow of Blood to the Head, should never be without them, as many dangerous symptoms will be entirely carried off by their immediate use. F OR FEMALES, those Pills are most truly excellent, removing all obstr uctions ; the distressing Headache so very prevalent wig' the sex ; Depression of Spirits, Dullness of Sight, Nervous Affections, Blotches, Pimples, and Sallowness of the Skin, and give a healthy and juvenile bloom to the complexion. To moTHERS, they are confidently recommended as the best Medi— cine that c an be taken during Pregnancy; and for Children of all ages they are unequalled. As a pleasant, safe, and easy A per ient, they unite the recommendation of a mil d operation with the most successful effect, and require no re. straint of diet or confinement during their use. By regulating the dose according to the age and strength of the patient, they become suitable for every case, in either sex, that can be required; and for ELDERLY PEOPLE they will be found to be the most comfortable Medicine e hi therto pared.

LEEDS.—There has been a larger supply of goods brought to the Halls, both on Saturday and Tuesday than has been the case for some weeks past ; the demand, how ever, keeps pace with the supply, and the stock left on hand after each day's sale was very small ; prices remain much the same as for the last few weeks. Business con tinues steady in the warehouses, and the stocks are un usually low. HUDDERSFIELD, APRIL 19.—The market to-day was like that of last week ; goods of every kind were in great demand. BRADFORD, APRIL 21.—Our piece-market to-day has not been quite so brisk, many of the buyers for the Ameri can market having completed their orders ; and as prices have still a tendency upwards, buyers in the borne trade are cautious in purchasing more than will meet their pre sent wants. There is no variation from recent reports of the yarn market ; fully as much business is doing at former prices. The report of last week's wool-market applies equally well to this. Spinners have in general considerable stocks, and are merely purchasing at present what they may require to make up their sorts. Though so little business is doing, we have heard of no depression in price, further than they may be accounted for by the loss of weight ex pected at this season of the year. Still many are of opi nion prices are at the highest. HALIFAX, APRIL 16.—There has not been quite so much business done in the Piece-hall to-day as there was last Saturday ; but prices have been without variation. The transactions in yarns, however, have been a full average of the last four weeks, and as stocks are remarkably low, manu facturers continue very sanguine as regards the future de mand and prices of manufactured goods. In the wool trade there has been very little done since last report, and prices are, therefore, at present nearly nominal ; but the sales that have taken place have been invariably effected at former prices. ROCHDALE, !Ulm. 18.—The flannel market still conti nues dull ; those wanting goods seem determined not to buy except at a low rate, and the manufacturers are equally firm for old prices. Though little business was done, the stocks in the manufacturers hands L i :Et not large , and as the raw material continues high, it is noi probable that they will submit to a reduction at present. WAKEFIELD, APRIL 22.—There has agilin been a very dull week for long wool, but the holders generiOY remain firm, under the impression that consumers for the mast part being lightly stocked, must soon be in the market again, tO less the consumption is materially diminished, of which there I are at present no symptoms ; in short wool of all sorts we have a full average business doing, with no variation in prices. It is said that bills to the amount of 3,000,000 f., intended for the Carlists, were seized on the Bishop of Leon, who was apprehended by the French police.

Five waggons, containing about one hundred emi grants, forwarded under the superintendence of the Petworth Emigration Committee, arrived at Chichester about eight o'clock on Monday evening ; and having tarried an hour or two, to bait their horses, again proceeded on their road to Portsmouth, to embark at ten on the following morning, for Upper Canada. One or two loiterers, who had indulged rather largely over the " flowing can," were seen reeling out at the Western-road after the waggons had left, asking their way to America. _ We learn from Corsica that, in the night of the 2d instant, the town and environs of Corte, in the island, suffered severely from a tremendous gale of wind, which made most of the houses rock as if they were affected by an earthquake, stripped their roofs, and covered nearly all the streets with ruins. The barracks were more particularly an object of its fury. The roof of the south wing was driven down upon the rooms beneath, but, most miraculously, no lives were lost. WHEAT.—We learn from a correspondent, who has recently travelled through several of the largest corn districts, that nothing can be more promising and luxuriant than the appearance of the wheat crops, which appear every where to have sustained no injury from the long-continued wet weather.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.—On Saturday morning, shortly, after twelve o'clock, the inhabitants of the town of Ux bridge were aroused from their sleep by the violent ringing of the fire-bells, a most destructive fire having been discovered at the extensive mills and granaries belonging to Mr. Henry Hull, situated at the High Bridge, between the village of Den ham, in Buckinghamshire, and that town. The engine be longing to the County Fire Office, stationed at Uxbridge, was immediately dispatched to the spot, followed by the engines belonging to the town, under the superintendence of Mr. High Censtable Murray, who was accompanied. by hundreds of the inhabitants, anxious to render every assistance in their power. On their arrival, the mills, which were almost entirely composed of wood, were burning with the greatest fury, the flames illu minating the atmosphere for miles round, and it soon became evident that any efforts to save any portion of it must prove unavailing. The mills being worked by water, there was, fortunately, an abundance of that element, and engines arriv ing in quick succession from Hillingdon, Wycomb, Staines, Bcdfont, Hayes, Ealing, and even from Windsor, &c. The exertions of the assemblee thousands were then directed to the preservation of the granaries and other buildings, but they being, unfortunately, composed of the same material as the mills, soon caught fire, and burned with the most terrific fury. The scene at that moment, as view e d f rom U x b r id ge - M oor, and the surrounding neiglinurhood, was awfully grand, the flames, accompanied by myriads of sparks, ascending to a great height. About twenty m i nutes past three o ' clock, two large engines, drawn by post horses, and accompanied by a party of the London Fire Brigade, arrived from the King street and Well -street Station of the London Fire Engine Establishment, the reflection of the fire having been distinctly visible at two o'clock, at the West-end of the town. At the time of their arrival, nothing remained of the mills and gra. naries but the side walls ; and the efforts of the firemen were, therefore, immediately directed to prevent the fire from ex tending from the residence of the miller, which was then in flames from top to bottom, to the stabling and other outbuild ings, in which, we are happy to say, they were successful, and about four o'clock, all fears of the flames extending furt her were allayed.

For a constant residence, I ,9hould give the preference to France or Germany. I have found no people so courteous or so easy to get on with as the former, or so little inclined to impose, provided an Eng liThman understands a little of what he is about, and can en er into their national characier. The climate of the Midi is the most genial in Europe; the necessaries of life abundant, and consetplently reasonable. The character of the Germans, perhaps, is upon the whole more congenial to the English. Provisions are abundant and cheap, and the climate not so variable as our own, but ivorma in summer, and colder in winter. Belgium possesses no advantage', save the hospi tality and .civility of the King ; everything is exorbitant in price, and the climate detestable ; the people the most b T otted, ignorant, dirty, and imposing, on the Continent. The once celebrated Spa, the rendezvous of the elite of England, Prus sia, and Russia, is now a deserted, dirty little country town ; and from the extreme poverty and m iser y of its inhabitants, the few unfortunato visitors who pitch their tents there get plucked most unmercifully. As to the waters, the same pro perties which they possess are t o be n . iet with at the various baths in Germany. For a summer sgour, for the enjoyment. of scenery, I would recommend Baden, in the Duchy of Baden, Thun, or Interlacken, in Switzerland, or St. Sauveur, in th e calculated Py rene es. The accommodations are excellent and reaso na bl e . i For the winter seas on, Nice s delightful in every resp ect , ex cept for persons t h rea tened with apoplexy: Naples i s anot h er nd tha p i e i r t i lTe ps for m m o c r r e . To Rme fo o for advancedFlorence charming situation, pulmonary complaintsatl would send t he robust antiquarian.many I ha ve k nown wh Rio have passed a summer in tuioii, and Sicily, at S orento, or Castel-a- More, without much inconvenience from the scorching - rays of a southern sun. Trusting these few hints may bo of some u se, I am, &c. &c. ' - . Galiynani. PIIILIDIA TITE R.

By WILLIAM TEMPLETON. An eminent Practical Engineer, in a letter to the publishers, gives the following encomium of the Pocket Companion :—" Nearly all the authors I have consulted, dress up their rules in the garb of algebraical formula which, to the majority of plain practi ca l men , is perfectly unintelligible ; and Mr. Templeton, by avoiding that system, has made a book more useful to thousands, than a whole library of more learned works."
