SEIVARTARY—Major With in Amainele The formation of a Direct Main-Trunk Railway, for the Ira. portant purpose of oonnecting the north of England and Scotland, by York and Lincoln, with the metropolis, has been decided upon, after nature Investigation and conviction of the public advantages emelt a line of eornmunioatien. The line will commence near King's-cross, in the New-road, the most central situation in the metropolis, both as regards the West. end and the City; It proceeds by Chipping Barnet, Biggleawade, It. Nests, Huntingdon, near Peterborough and Market Deeping by Stamfbrd, to the west of Bourn, east of Grantham, west of Sleaford, and east of Newark, to Lincoln, and thence by Gainsborough, Thorns, Stealth, and Selby, to York. The distance by it between London and York will be 189 miles. will be about 20 miles shorter than by any other proposed line. t will reduce by 39 miles the present distance between London and York, and will consequently by the sane distatme bring New. castle and Ulnburgii nearer to the metropolis, while the distance raved between Landon and Hull will be rte less than 4S miles. It will feria the neared mate to Leeds, Selby, Hull, Halifax, Bradford, Huddersfield, Wakefield, Pontefract, arid Sheffield; thus commanding the traffic of the manufacturing districts of Yorkshire, as well as the traffic from the north of England, Scotland, Lincoln. shire, and the ether agricultural districts through which it passes. Taking its course through a highly productive country, it em braces all the market towns of importance, and connects all Lin. ealnaMre with the manufacturing districts and the metropolis. It clans an easy communication between Norfolk and Suffolk, and the West and North of England. The line, as will be seen by the map, does not interfere with the drainage of the fen country, whilst it embraces the most important aurkete and towns of that district. The inclinations are extremely favourable, and are obtained at a moderate expense, there not being any engineering work of great magnitude en the line. The guage will be the same as the exist ing lines through the manufacturing districts, and all loss of time in travelling will be avoided, as the lino will be an integral trunk fine eider one management. The expense of construction being moderate,and the distance se hitch reduced, the fares will be proportionately less, and an ample profit is suflicieutly shown by the annexed abstract of the traffic tables, which are the result of a most rigid investigation, and are prepared as evidence for Parliament. The capital proposed to be raised, namely, 4,000,0001., is a sum exceeding the engineers' estimate. It has, however, beer. thought advisable to allow an ample margin fqy any increase of prices above those of the present time. The surveys were commenced in October last, and in March last, the Direct Northern Line, and its advantages (together with many other trial lines, and their disadvantages), were carefully brought to the consideration of many gentlemen well qualified to form an opinion on such matters, and finally the:prospectsse, accom panied by a map on a sufficient scale, was published on the 4th of April, 1844. This prospectus and map show the London terminus at King'a.cross. At this date there was not before the public any other project for a direct line of railway from London to York ; but when more than a month had elapsed from the time of the publication of the Prospectus and Map of the Direct Northern Railway, the Cam. , 3 ; bridge and York via Lincoln Railway Company (who had up to that time adhered to an indirect line by Cambridge to York) changed their title to that of the London and York Railway Corn. Pany, and their stated capital, which previously had varied from 2 ,500,800/. to 1,600,0001., was then, for the first time, named at 4 ,000,000/. In their new prospectus the London and York Com . Pally also adopted Kinger-cross for their London terminus. Of the sense entertained of these encroachments by the pro. footers of the Direct Northern Railway, the York and London Company were duly apprised by a circular addressed to each mem ber of their Committee on the 18th of May last, and signed by the Secretary, Major Amsinck. A snap of the London and York Railway was, however, pub lished in the latter part of August last, which, to the surprise of the promoters of the Direct Northern Line, showed an attempt to appropriate upwards ef 70 miles from London of the published line of the Direct Northern Railway. 81111 the project ef the London and York Railway Company falls very far short of a direct line from London to the north, as will be Been from the following data:— From London to York the distance by the present lines of rail way is 219 miles ; by the proposed London and York line, stated to be 200 miles; by the proposed Direct Northern Railway, 180 Daring tile progress of this undertaking, a very large proportion of the landowners on the line have been communicated with, and consulted in reference to it, and the full concurrence of that im- Portant interest is, with very few exceptions, confidently relied on. Public attention having been lately drawn to the atmospheric Principle, the Committee wish to °beerye that they are in a con dition to take advantage of that principle, should it eventually be abown to be for the benefit of the undertaking. The sections of the country through which the line passes from London to York can be seen at the offices of the Company, 64, Moorgate-street. Every explanation, also, will be affbried with regard to the traffic and other matters. The Parliamentary plans, &c., are in course of preparation, and application will be made for an Act of Incorporation in the ensuing Session of Parliament. The deposit of 6 per cent., or 21. 10s. per share, is necessary to Lett the requirement of the Parliamentary standing orders, but the Preliminary expenses will in no event exceed 10s. per share. Interest at the rate of 4/. per cent. per annum will be allowed on all sells made after the passing of the Act till the opening of the railway. The subscribers' agreement and Parliamentary contract will be temly rot sigeatort ee tl,O e . -..t .9 the denosit. A large proportion of the shares having been already applied for, no application for shares can be received after the Bth of October next, up to which period they may be addressed to the Secretary, at the offices of the Company, 04, Moorgste.atrest, London, where prospectuses and plans may be obtained ; or to Messrs.

When we look at a coin so remarkably small, We're rather surpris'd it was issued at all; But when we examine the facts of the case, We we how the new introduction took i lace. No doubt such a thing was judiciously done, To accommodate dealers with MOSES and SON. You must knew that vast thousands repair, every day, To purchase our clothes in such boundless display. And this is no wonder. For all will confess That we rival the kingdom in cheapness of dress. To the very " last farthing" our profits were brought, And if" that" were deducted, why we should have nought, But since the " half.farthing" is such a " good hit," E. MOSES and SON will the difference split. And the public sh all purchase of MSES and SON, Choice articles lower than ever they'v O e done. As soon as we saw the small coin from the Mint, We were not at all I),cl:ward in taking the hint. But wishing, at all time. (as far as we can), to help in promoting a Government plan, We resolv'd, while we furnish'd with beautiful dress, To sell at the rate of a profit " stilt less;" And thus by " Half -Farthings" much good will be done To the numberless dealers of MOSES and SON.

GENTLIIM lOWE you a debt of unspeakabl e gra tit u d e f or your exertions evinced by the splendid majority in the show of hands in my favour over all the other Aldermen at the Cora. mon Hall this day. A Committee, consisting of several hundreds of the most influen. tial and respectable men that ewer sat in the City of London, some time since took upon themselves the onerous duty of examining every document and circumstsnce connected with the charges against me, and they came to the unanimous resolution that such charges were groundless and unfounded. The publication of that resolution has this day produced in a Common Hall of unprece dented numbers, and of the highest respectability, a spotaneous ex. pression of their support and of their sympathy with a persecuted individual. Although the Court of Aldermen have again reflised your no. mination, yet I feel that I have triumphed in your unbought suf ferages, and had it been possible for me to have gone to a poll, I have no doubt whatever that the most extended demonstration would have been made in my favour. But, Gentlemen, your rights have been invaded, and your opinions have been eontemp. tuously treated; It remain, with you to vindicate your own pri. vileges. I hayo told you upon former occasions that the time would ar. rive when TRUTH and JUSTICE MUST PREVAIL; and although the decision of this day has protracted that period, yet as I still live in the esteem of my fellow-citizens, I shall not cease to press upon you way claim to be your Chief Magistrate. To the latest period of my existence I shall retain the deepest sense of your kindness, and, undar the blessing of Divine Provi dence, I shall hope, upon the next annual election of Lord Mayor, to meet you, end to prove to you that I am, with great sincerity, your faithful servant, Sept. 26, 1844.

(From the Corh Examiner of Friday.) you see ?—Part of the antlers and the back of the neck, end the wreath, with my spectacles. Could you see the T ?—No, but the turn up. You would swear it is the turn up of the T ?—Yes, by looking at it with a mag nifier. Will you swear it is not the turn up of an F ? —No. And did you you not swear so just now ? I will swear it is the turn up of T. What's the differ ence between the turn up of T and F ?—None. And how can you swear it is the turn up of T ?—From its likeness to the other letters. You may go down, sir. Mr.O'CoNKELL—Comparisons are odious.—(A laugh.) Mrs. Captain Robinson, examined by Mr. WaLsn.—l remember making out a list of the plate sent to Captain Warren's. Mrs. Bond counted it, and I wrote the list, which was placed in the basket before it was given to Mrs. Paterson. My father resided for many years in York, and the plate was purchased in London. Cross-examined by Mr. O'llEa—Will you say it was all purchased in London ?—lt was before my time, and I can't tell. Did you write on the list the different crests ?—No. Did you see the mutilated plate ?—No. Michael Coonahan examined by Mr. NAGLE—Wits servant to Captain Warren the night of the ball. I know Lieutenant Puddicombe, and saw him several times before that night. He was at the ball. After supper the lights were put out in the room, and the screen put up in the doorway. After they all left the room Lieutenant Puddicombe went up stairs. I remained i❑ the hall during the time, and I saw him return. I re collect the plate which was got from Captain Robin son. It was in the supper-room that night as well as my master's. Some of the plate was missed next day. Four spoons with a star crest were in the room that night. Cross-examined by Mr. O'HEA—Now you are quite sure you saw him go up ?—I am quite sure. You took particular notice of the four spoons with the star ; now r. ill you swear there were not five spoonc. with a star ? —No. Wk.y did you hesitate when Mr. Nagle asked if you saw Mr. Puddioomhe go up ?—Because I was sure. Did any person else go up ?—I did not see them. Did you ever swear no person else went up ?—I swore I saw no man go up but him. Give me a direct answer sir. Did you swear nobody else went up ?—I did not see them. If you stay there all night you'll answer me. Did you swear no person else went up ?—I did not swear that. Were you examined before the magistrates ? Yes. Did you swear you saw no person go up with him? —I did. Were you not contradicted, and did not Cap tain Smike swear he went up with him ?—I did not see. Go along down, sir. To the Jury—l saw him come down, and he had his red coat open. To Mr. O'Ha♦—You say you saw him come down. Now where did he go ?—I can't say. Did he go out ? I can't say. Did you give him his hat ?—Not that I know. This case, which has created so much ei'cilement in the public mind for some weeks past, and which has been canvassed pro and con., not alone by the local press, but also by the metropolitan press of both kingdoms, came on for trial on Friday, shortly after the sitting of the court. Great interest was manifested by the public to be present at the trial, enhanced, no doubt, by the con flicting statements that have gone before them ; and the court was filled at an early hour, the audience being highly respectable, comprising a large number of ladies, ff h o occupied the grand-jury gallery. The traverser, Robert Bruce Puddicombe, sat in the counsel box be tween his agent, Mr. P. O'Connell, and his counsel, Mr. James O'Llea ; he was habited in a white frock or dust coat, with white waistcoat. His appearance is manly and prepossessing, and the proceedings were regarded by him as though but a mere spectator. Messrs. Richard Lane and Francis A. Walsh conducted the prosecution on behalf of the Crown, with Mr. J. Nagle, Crown soli citor, as agent. The Clerk of Arraigns having called on Robert Bruce Puddicombe, that gentleman rose to enter his plea, when The CLERK or THE ARRAIGNS, addressing him, said, -' Sir, you must get into the dock." Mr. WALsit (for the Crown) stated that they had no objection to allow the gentleman to remain where he was, by_his counsel. Mr. - o'llms. (for traverser)--It is the general course In bail cases. The Court concurred with the gentlemen, and Robert Bruce Puddicombe was then given in charge for that ho, on the 27th of August, at Coolgrena, did feloniously steal one silver spoon, value 55., and five •,uaces of silver, each value 35., the property of Augustus Warren ; also that on the same day ho did feloniously :teal one silver fork, ♦alue 55., and 3oz. of silver, ♦alue 3s. each ounce, the property of Thomas Pitt Robinson ; and also one silver fork, value 55., and 3oz. of silver, value 3s. each ounce, the property of Margaret Bona, to which indictment he pleaded Not Guilty, in a firm and commanding tone of voice. _ Mr. LANE stated the case for the prosecution. Captain Augustus Warren examined by Mr. W. 11.811 —I reside at Coolgrena, near Cove. I invited a party for the 27th of August, for which purpose I borrowed some plate from Captain Robinson and his sister-in-law, firs. Bond. On the next morning, when the, things were collected, he found two dinner forks with a crest of a stag's head and initials "T. M. A. ;" one dinner fork with a crest, a stag on a coronet ; and ono with a crest, lion rampant.; one dessert fork, crest lion rampant ; one table spoon with crest, star, and one with crest, lion rampant ; and a table spoon with a stag's head and ini tials "T. M. A.," missing. Those articles marked " T. M. A." were received from Captain Robinson, and were his or Mrs. Bond's. Those marked with the lion and star were my property. I have a spoon of my own present, marked with a star, the Dawson crest. Saw Lieutenant Puddicombe on the morning of the Bth of September. He came to my house about nine ' o'clock, when the servant told me he was in the drawing-room. I went in, and saw him reading a paper on the sofa, Ho got up and said—" Captain Warren, I have come to you on a most distressing business." He seemed distressed. I told him not to let it annoy him, and I would assist him if possible. He said lie had some old plate which ho gave to a woman to sell, and on taking them to Cork she was detained by gr. Hawkesworth on suspicion they were mine. He tsked if I had lost plate, and I smiled, knowing that every person was aware of it. I said " Yes, I have lost plate, aid have directed the constable to have it stopped, and that it would be stopped, for it was marked." lie said that his brother officers and servant could prove the plate was in his possession eighteen mouths. I told him there was no occasiost to be annoyed about it, that all he had to do was to go to Mr. llawkesworth and say the article§ were his, for he was in duty bound to clear the woman. lie said he gave her a certificate to that effect, and I said [ think it would be better to go himself. Ile said ho wanted to melt it to make a ball for his VAL Mr. [lawkesworth met me at three o'clock in Code. and we went to Dr. Meade's house and examined the silver pro luced by Mr. Hawkesworth in Dr. Meade's study. Ono piece had a star on it. There were also part of a fork and pert of a spoon with two small prongs of a fork and wo pieces partly burned. The spoon had the star on it. That mark corresponded with the crest on my plate. There wore remains of a crest on the other pieces, but I would not swear to it ; but I traced the letter A on the piece of the fork. All the plate belonging to myself, and that borrowed from Captain Robinson, were in the supper room, for I counted them and left them there. I gave Mr. O'Connell a list of the servants who had lived with me during the last twelve months. I directed the ,eft , tlit to be pat up to the door. .4..uer6tand thcra was:no door to the room then ?—No. You say you counted Captain Robinson's plate, and it corresponded?—Yes. Did you count the number of one kind and the number of another?—No, I did not; I am not positive but I com pared the list. Some of the plate was missing next morning?—Yes. How did you know next morning which of each was lost?—lf I had Captain Robinson's list I might know. It is not unusual to have two crests in a family?—l cannot say. You had a great number of attendants?—Yes, there were six servants in the house. The woman at the gate is Mrs. Patterson. I taxed the whole of the servants in the morning. Did you get a search warrant?—No; I mentioned the thing to the head constable, but could not suspect a single person. Did you search their place P—No, but I searched the house. How many articles did you lose?—Eight spoons and forks. Do you remember how Lieutenant ['uddicombe was dressed ?—Yes, he had a dress-coat open and white waistcoat and dark trowsers and sash. I could not say whether ho went up after supper. Do you remember Noonan saying Lieutenant Puddicombe was the only person who went up?—Something of the kind was said, and ho was taxed the next morning, but I said I would discharge any person who insinuated the like. I did not see him going away. He is very fond of dancing. Eight articles, such as those taken, would take up a great bulk. Do you know Lieutenant Smike? —Yes. Ile was one of the party?—Yes. And he is gone away?—Yes, on duty. Was Colonel Burton at the house?—No, nor any officer from Spike. Did you re ceive a communication from him ?—Yes, which was pub lished, and I replied to it. Was Mr. Puddicombe ever in your house before that night ?—I believe not. When he called at your house he was in an agitated state ? —Yes. And that is not unusual when a man is charged with theft ?—No. He wished to clear himself ?—Yes. Can you easily discover the star ?—No ' except with a glass, part of it is discernible with the naked eye. It has five waiving rays discernible by the eye, and the other by the aid of a glass. To Mr. WALsie—l did not cause the letter to be pub lished. Mrs. Margaret Bond, examined by Mr. LANE—I know Captain Robinson, who is married to a sister of mine. My father's name was Andrews. He died in 1805. My mother is dead seven years, and her name was Mary Andrews. Upon the death of my father and mother their plate was divided amongst their children, andpirs. Robinson and I got part of it. I remember the ball at Captain Warrens, and sent a large quantity of plate there by Mrs. Patterson and her husband in a large basket. They came for it. I reckoned the plate, and my sister took down the list which was sent with it. The articles in that list were in the basket. My father's crest was a stag's head, and the plate had that crest. There were some with the Bond crest. The Andrews' plate had " T.M.A." on it. The Bond crest was an open hand. Did not get back all the plate sent. Saw some plate afterwards with constable Roe, and examined it. Part of it had stag's horns on it, and the letter A. and part of the wreath under the stag's head. I could also make out part of aT. The fork was so dreadfully mu tilated it was impossible to discover anything. There was a space in the centre of the two letters. The crest corresponded with that on the plate sent to Capt. Warren. So did the initials. Cross-examined by Mr. 0 1 /TEA—Were you told to look at the silver as your own?—l don't recollect that I was. Was it brought to you as the stolen plate ?—Yes. And brought for you to find out the marks?—Yes. You say you saw part of T?—Yes, one stroke. Will you swear it was not the stroke of an I or M?—No, I will not.

To Mr. O'HEA—Did not see a cloak or outside coat with him. Edward Noonan, examined by Mr. LANE—I recollect the night of Captain Warren's party, and was attending table. When all the party retired from the supper-room, Captain Warren and Captain Stubbs remained and went down together. I put out the lights, and, the two doors being off, I put up the screens to the doors, and all went down stairs. Some time afterwards, about half an hour, I saw Mr. Puddicombe come out of the ball-room, and go up stairs and into the supper-room. I saw no person with him, and I did not se e hi m c o m e down. I saw no person else go up there. Cross-examined by Mr. 011 EA—You saw no person else go up ?—igo, I did not. Are you a teetotaler ?—I believe I am.

Did you agree with Coonahan that you saw but one officer go up 7—Yes, we did ; I saw but ono (Am , r go up.

Have you been in regular service since ?—No ; but I was at several parties since. What style do you call yourself ? —What you like. But I wish to know what you call yourself 7—A gentleman's servant.—(Laughter.) Own man 7—Yes. Well, you are five years a teetotaler, did you break it ?—That is no affair of yours.

Was the last servant that left the supper-room. Went to see where Lieutenant Puddicombe was going, and then told Coonahan wh ere he went. I saw him lift the screen and go in. I did not drink wine or spirits that day. Con sidered it a gentleman's duty to ask a servant for what he wanted. To the Jury--Told one of the servants that the gen tleman might fcdl over something in the dark. Catherine Leary examined by Mr. WALSII—Is in Captain Warren 's service, and remembers being in the hall when they came from the supper-room. I was afterwards in a bedroom, and heard a noise in the sup per-room, and a ime down and met Coonahan in the hall. While speaking to him an officer came down stairs, but I would not kno w him. He worn a red coat. Cross-examin ed by Mr. O'HEA—Is quite sure it was a red coat he wore. Did you ever swear you did not know whether it was a red or blue coat. ho wore ?—No, but I said I did not know whether it was shut or open. Was there any - way of going from your mistress's to the supper-room ? -No, unless you went out on the landing. Did you go that night into the supper-room?—Yes, after the party went home. Did any of the others go in there?—l doi know. Edward Cramer examined by Mr. LANE—I am the leading man of •the labourers in the victualling yard at Haulbowline, and know Mr. Puddicombe. Saw him on the 30th of August. near the landing place. He said " Cramer, what is old silver worth an ounce?" I said sa. or ss. Gd. He said, "I offered some to the Jew pedlar, and ho only offered 3s. Gd." I said I would recommend him not to give it for that price ; and that as my wife was going to Cork in afew days, she would sell it for its value. He brought it in a paper in half an hour, tied up in paper, and said it would weigh two ounces, There was a piece of a spoon, a piece of a fork, and some prongs, and some that appeared to have been melted. He said he wanted to melt it for a top for his boat. I kept it for some time, wad ho called on me and asked for it., as he was going to Cork, and would dispose of it. He accordingly went to the house and got it. The silver was shown to Lieutenant Wentworth, after my wife left Haulbowline on the ith. Lieutenant Puddicombe said he gave it to my wife. Cross-examined by Mr. O'HEA—He made no conceal ment of it 2—No. Had he not a boat ?—He had. And is it not usual to have a ball on some part of it ?—I do not know. Did he deny the silver in Cove ?—No ; but he acknowledged he gave it to my wife, and sent her a certificate. That was after it was noised abroad ? It was. To Mr. LANE—I got the certificate on the morning of the Bth, after the charge was made. To Mr. O'HEA—Lieutenant Puddicombe said the night before that he would exonerate Mrs. Cramer. Mary Cramer examined by Mr. NAGLE—Is wife to the last witness, and knows Mr. Puddicombe ; he gaTo me some silver to dispose of for him. After a powerful speech from Mr. O'Hea, who called no witnesses, the jury returned a verdict of Acquittal, which was received with loud cheers by a crowded Court. Julia Patterson examined by Mr. NAOMI—My hus band is gate-keeper to Captain Warren, and we were sent to Captain Robinson's for some plate before the ball, which we got from Mrs. Bond—l received the plate and brought it to Captain Warren's house, and assisted Catherine Leary to take it to the supper-room ; nothing was taken out of the basket, or the cover ever lifted, until Catherine Leary left it in the supper-room. Captain Thomas Robinson, examined by Mr. LANE-- I am a commander in the Royal Navy, and married to a sister of Mrs. Bond, who was daughter of Captain An drews, and got a portion of his plate. Some of it was sent to Captain Warren's the night the ball was given Was not present when it was sent, but I was aware it was sent. The crest on the Andrews' plate was a stag's head on a wreath, and the initials T. M. A. Saw some plate afterwards in a mutilated state in Sergeant Rose's possession, and examined it. Ono piece was the upper part of a fork, and the other piece appeared part of a spoon. I could distinctly make out part of the stag's head, his nose and neck, and nearly all the initials on the fork. It corresponded with Andrews' crest. The hall mark was also similar. There was part of a star, not very distinct, but resembling a star fish. The middle was not very distinct, as there was a dent of a hammer in the centre. Saw some of the Andrews' plate on Cap tains Warren's supper table. Captain Andrews, he un derstood, was an Irishman, but lived many years in York and Rochdale. He died a few days after his arrival in Cork. Has no hesitation in saying that the mutilated plate was part of the Andrews' plate, from its likeness to the other. Cross examined by Mr. O'HEA—You could see all those marks with the naked eye ?—No. What could ''...- ,---- "---- ----' , .--..-- 7 '''.-• . .- . - ..... 4/ i /.. ..., _ r _ ''''' 'el4' 1 . .

William Matthews, Stanstead-street, bargeman, said that he was in the barge. 'Witness, on hearing the cry of " Boat," stopped the barge, and went to-. wards a boat he saw floating upside down. A man had hold of the keel. Witness held the man up with a boat-hook till the boat came from the shore, into which the man was placed, whose name, witness , is informed, is Edwin Newman. By the CORONER—When I first ran with the hook to him I asked him if there was any one else in the water ; he made me no answer. He appeared in a state of great agitation. Upon Mr. Newman being safely landed, and while he was stripping, I agars: asked him if there was any one in the water, when he still gave no answer. CORONER—It is of importance you should be cer tain. Did he, or did he not, answer? Witness—l em quite certain he gave no answer. By the solicitor—l am not certain that be heard me, but I spoke loud. There were several perms around him, and he seemed in confusion. Thomas Taylor, waterman, in the service of Mr. Weeks, landlord of the Jolly Anglers, said that about a quarter to five o'clock Mr. Newman hired a boat. He took one which was capable of carrying three or four persons. It was a light funny. A young woman, the deceased, was with him. They both went away together in the funny. They went to. wards Tottenham-mills. The gentleman appeared a practised hand at rowing. About seven o'clock wit ness heard a male voice exclaiming " Boat, a hoy It was a cry of distress. When he cried a second time witns 'wed towards him. H was taken ness iden boat in tla immediate. lady ;" he repl. Jd, , riga, By the CORONER—I am quite certain he gave me that answer. I asked him a second time. He seemed to be in liquor, but was perfectly sensible, as he said to me, " Get ins my coat and waistcoat" (they were in the water), observing, " I am not going to pay five or six persons to pick up my things." His hat was also in the water, which he directed witness to fetch. Witness got the coat and waistcoat. Evidence—On witness landing at the Jolly Anglers, witness saw a gentleman who had arrived in a boat, who said, " For God's sake, go after that lady, for she was in the boat when I passed them." Mr. Newman was present, who replied to the gentleman upon ask ing him abaft her, "I left her in the water." Wits ness took they, drags and dragged for her 'hero the, funny was upset, but not finding her, he came back and asked Mr. Newman whereabouts she was. He said at the Point, and that a boat, in which were three gentlemen, had run over him and swamped' his boat. The gentleman above alluded to was accom panied by a lady and two children. Mr. Newman's boat was not injured. Witness picked up the de ceased about three yards from where the funny was found. About half an hour before witness lent out a boat to three gentlemen, who returned after Mr. Newman was in the house, who asked Mr. Newman where he was upset? There was no bruise on the boat, showing that it had been fouled. He was in Es chair smoking a cigar when witness went to Mr. Newman, after witness went the first time to drag for the body. Mr. John Green, Lea-bridge, boat-builder, said that he assisted to place Mr. Newman in Taylor s funny, and asked him if there was any one else in the boat. He answered, " It's all right, there was no one else in the boat but myself." Mr. Newman did not seem to witness intoxicated, nor, from his manner, did it appear as if anything unusual had taken place. Witness dragged the river with Taylor. At this point of the evidence the Coroner suggested an adjournment, which was consented to by the jury. The inquiry was then adjourned to Tuesday morn ing at ten o'clock. The deceased was the niece of Mr. Bull, landlord of the Cat-and-Mutton, Cat-and-Mutton-fields, where she assisted at the bar. The CORONER directed Runnun, the summoning officer, to use his utmost exertions to obtain the three gentlemen who left in the boat, and of the gentleman who was accompanied by a lady and twn children. ALtiLNOTTAN lUD - CULTURAL ASSOCIATION:. • This Association held their annual meeting at Newark, on Tuesday, the 24th instant. The show was held in the Cattle-market on the Castle-hill, - and the agricultural implements and vegetables were ex hibited in the Bowling-green adjoining the stockmarket. The arrangements were very goad. The weather was by no means favourable, and the thing altogether was a novelty here. The numbers and quality of the stock taken as a whole far exceeded our most sanguine expectation, and the company was both numerous and respectable, among which we observed Gally Knight, Esq., M.P., Colonel Rolleston, M.P. for the County, G. Fillingham, T. B. Hildyard, W. H. Barrow, R. Bromley, B. Martin, Esqrs., Revs. J. D. Becher, T. Cam, &c., Sir Robert Howe Bromley presided. Upwards of 100 gentlemen sat down to a sumptuous dinner pro vided by Mr. Gilstrap, at the hotel. Sir R. 11. Brom-• ley gave the Queen, Royal Family, Lord-Lieutenant. of the county, Duke of Newcastle, &c., &c. Tne com pany was addressed by Gally Knight, Esq., M.P. and Colonel Rolliston, M.P. Y. Falkner, Esq., read the awards, after which W. H. Barrow made some r*r . , important remarks respecting the few labourers who came forward to claim the premiums offered by the Society, and strongly urged the necessity of the farmers giving encouragement to the labourers' to raise themselves in society by virtuousin dustry. The judges were Mr. Wright, of Rom ney, Mr. Bartholomew, of Goltho, and Mr. Smith, of Burley Reiland. This being the day of our fat stock market, there was a considerable quantity of stock sold in the street. The show was not so large as was expected, but was select. Thera were nearly 900 people admitted at ls. each. Our limits will not allow us to particularise upon the stock. The show of agricultural implements was very interesting, and the largest ever remembered. Machines were exhibited by Mr. Ed. Tonge, ironmonger, of Newark, among which was his improved iron horse power, adapted for one or two horses, driving one, two, or three separate. machines at the same time, manufactured by A. Dew; of Birmingham, for which prizes have been a warded repeatedly, and are again at this show. Its simplicity and durability are allowed to surpass everything of that description which has been presented to the pub lic. There was also an oil-cake machine improved and manufactured by Mr. Edward Tonge, Mitred for beasts or sheep, with screen. Its construction is aura. blv simple. Mr. Tonge exhibited a very superk r sub soil plough, with the latest improved ploughs byßan. som. Dlr. Nicholson, of Newark, exhibited sonteporte able iron sheep hurdles, and an improved oil-cake mill, manufactured by himself. He exhibited Gardener's patent chaff and turnip machines, Grant's patent rake, Locock's patent plough, and Rodway's patent concaTe horseshoes. Various winnowing machines were ex. hibited, made by Wheatley, of Holm-lane, near Not. tingham ; Wade, of Syerston ; Atkins, Mukha'', Hornsby, Grantham, and Revill, of Lincoln. M r , Crostini, of Beverley, had a great assortment agricultural implements. His clod crushing machine and patent waggon, and Ducie's drag, were most prominent. There was a very useful swing plough shown by Bealby, of Collingham. The ploughing match will take place at Howton, near Newark, on the 10th of October.—Doncaster Gazette. Tho Marquis and Marchioness of Waterford, and Sir James and Lady Campbell, were among the nume rous passengers who arrived from Ostend on eaturdaY, by the Sir Edward Banks. The time occupied on the ~ passage to London a littl e excee d e d t w elve hours. WILL OF J. S CIIOLEFIELD , E s e M.P.—The will of Joshua Sch o l e fi e ld, E sq ., l a t e M.P. for Birmingham,. has just passed the seal of the Prerogative Court of Canterbury. lie is described as late of Egbaston, near Birmingham, in the county of Warwick. The will is written on one side of a sheet of paper, and occupies a very few lines, and gives the whole of his property to his two sons, in nearly the following words :—" I give and bequeath all my plate, pictures, horses, carriages, carts, linen, wearing apparel, and also my real and per sonal property, wheresoever situate, money secured on bonds, bills, and notes, to my two sons, Clement Cotberill Scholefield and William Scholefield." lie also appoints these two gentlemen executors, who have both proved. It may be observed, as a remarkable incident, that the will does not contain a single legacy. The property is sworn under 25,000/., and the will bears date 18th March, 1842. THEATRE ROYAL, DRURY.LANE.—We cannot too highly laud the excellent arrangement which has been made here on the subject of evening dress. In so elegant a theatre, the society of which is supposed to bespeak the character of the public at large, it would be disgraceful to permit any longer the introduction of Taglionis, Mackintoshes, coloured cravats, dirty boots, morning trousers, jockey coats, and other such motley gear, es pecially when, in addition to the superiority of the com pany who visit the dress-circle and stalls, the theatre has been renovated in the most costly manner. It is an observance strictly attended to in all other large the:Area abroad, and ought rigidly to be enforced here. 7 - 77% ness jumped into a boat and rowed towards [e was as described by the last witness.

OPINIONS OF TRH PRESS. o' We regard the work before us, ' The Silent Friend,' as a work embracing most clear and practical views of a series of com plaints hitherto little understood, and passed over by the majority of the Medical profession, for what reason we are at a loss to know. We must, however, confess that a perusal of this work has left such a favourable impression on our minds, that we not only recommend, but cordially wish every one who is the victim of past folly, or suffbr ing from indiscretion, to profit by the advice contained in its pages." —Age and Argue. " The Authors of The Silent Friend,' seem to be thoroughly conversant with the treatment of a class of complaints which are, we fear, too prevalent in the present day. The perspicuous style In which this book is written, and the valuable hints it conveys to those who are apprehensive of entering the marriage state, cannot fail to recommend it to a careful perusal."—Era.

Parties who are in the habit of burning two tallow moulds of four to the lb., are respeotfully requested to make the experiment whether a single " PRICE'S PATENT CANDLE" of six to the lb. will not give more light ; and whether, therefore, these Candles do not afford a cheaper source of light than the commonest tallow ones, notwithstarnding the difference in price per lb.

As soon as the Syrup is rubbed en the Gums, the Child will be relieved, the Gums cooled, and the inflammation reduced. It is as innocent as efficacious, tending to produce the Teeth with case; and so pleasant, that ne Child will refuse to let its Gums be rubbed with it.

THE NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE, for October, be gins with a capital squib at the French, called "Africa in Prance ; or, the Beard and the Pip e ," which, like the celebrated ietters in the Times, will no doubt cause an extraordinary outpouring of indignation against Eng land from the French newspapers. It is followed by a stirring tale of Italian life and character, beaaing the title of "The Last of the Contrabbandiori." "Social Piracy" is amusingly illustrated in the Adventures of the Hawke family ; and " The Talley rand Papers" ap pear to increase in interest with every continuation. Conversations with the late W. Beckford" proceed with very striking effect, as the conversations of so dis tinguished a man would be sure to do. Mrs. Trollope is carrying forward liar "Robertses on their Travels" in a manner as perfectly amusing as can well be conceived ; and Mr. Maxwell, with his " Lights and Shades in the Life of a Gentleman on Half-pay, has furnished a good allowance of pleasant reading. " The Philosophy of Waltzing" we can recommend as an excellent paper. To the author of "Peter Priggins" the Magazine is in debted for his laughable memoir of "Kitty Dangerous ;" and Laman Blanchard puts forth an essay equally good in its way, " On Cmsidering Oneself Horsewhipped !"
