could not but acknowledge that a line which would con nect them with the manufacturing districts of the north would also be most beneficial to their trade.—(Hear.) There was another railway proposed, which would unite with this line, and would give them an opportunity of travelling and conveying goods between that town and Newbury, Ilsley, and Oxford, and so northwards. This conflux of railways must be beneficial to their local trade.—(Hear, hear.) The Hon. Member expressed his hope that they would make common cause with the pro jectors of the line, and do all in their power to secure the success of that desirable undertaking. Other gentlemen addressed the meeting at some length, and the motion having been carried with three cheers, The CHAIRMAN said the unanimity of the meeting was a source of great satisfaction to him. He was most anxious to promote the undertaking by every means in his power. He would represent to the Earl of Clarendon the feelings of the meeting, and he felt assured that in as far as the property of the Noble Earl was concerned, every facility would be offered to the undertaking. The petitions then received numerous signatures, and the meeting broke up.—Hampshire Advertiser. *bitten SUN OFFICE, Seven o'Clock. THE GREAT MANCHESTER, RUGBY, and SOUTHAMPTON RAILWAY.

Glyn, Hallifax, Mills, and Co. The commercial advantages and great facilities which the port of Southampton offers to the merchant and the manufacturer, clearly point out a demand for a more direct communication with it from Manchester and York, and the various manufactories of the north and of Staffordshire, than is at present afforded, either by the circuitous mine on the eastern side, through London by the Bir mingham and the South-Western Railways, or on the western side, by the Birmingham and Cheltenham Railways. Numerous influen tial and monied parties, interested ix improving this communication, have projected a direct line, proceeding from Manchester via Stock port, Macclesfield, Leek, Cheadle, Uttoxeter, Tutbury, Burton, Market Bosworth, and Hinckley, to Rugby, and then using the Rug by and Oxford Railway to Didcote (on the Great Western Railway), to form a railway thence to Southampton by way of Newbury, An dover, and Stockbridge. The distance between Manchester and Rugby by the existing rail way route is at present about 116 miles, and by the proposed line from Macclesfield to Rugby it will be only 92, so that the projected Railway wililessen the distance by 24 miles, which, as well in time as charge, will effect a most important improvement in the traffic both of passengers and goods between those places, and will afford an accommodation which is imperatively required in regard to the large population of the intermediate towns now without any convenience from railway conveyance. It is needless to remark how greatmust be the advantage which the whole manufacturing districts round such an emporium of manufae tares as Manchester will derive, from having direct access to such a port as Southampton, which has now become the chief medium of transit to all the Islands and Ports in the Mediterranean, and to India also, by mea'is of the packets of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, as also to the Colonies and Ports of the Western Hemisphere by the mail packets established for that purpose. As the scheme embraces the important feature of a direct line from Derby to Rugby, by joining the Great Manchester, Rugby, and Southampton Railway, near Market Bosworth, thereby saving one fifth of the distance, it will be at once apparent that - York and the whole northern district will, by means of the Northern Midland Railway to Derby, obtain the same direct communication with , Southampton ; and, in fact, the project will contribute a grand trunk ; communication from north to south through the centre of the king dom, and not only will the northern commercial and manufacturing towns benefit by this great undertaking, but the important coal and iron districts of Derbyshire and Staffordshire, which the line intersects, will derive Immense advantages from the convenient and extensive new mart which will be opened for their valuable produc tions, whilst Southampton and the intermediatelocalities will greatly benefit by the ready and cheap manner in which coals and other necessary productions, not only of the soil, but of northern manu factories, will be supplied, whether for consumption or merchandise. It is proposed that the Southampton terminus snail be a convenient spot in the vicinity of the new docks, independently of the South- Western Railway. The lines of the 'proposed railways have been carefully surveyed, and levels taken by skilful engineers and sur veyors, and in no part present any unusual difficulties. The gradients will be unusually good, and the general line of country may be re garded as offering engineering facilities for the import an t wor k pro posed. A more direct communication from Manchester and from York, through Derby and Rugby to Southampton, is professedly the main object of the proposed scheme ; but it will be obvious to all who study the geography of the respective places, not only that the line to Rugby, both from Manchester and from Derby, forms a more direct . communication between those places and London, by means of the Birmingham Railway from Rugby, than any other route now in use, but that it will challenge the skill of the engineer and the ingenuity of the speculator to devise a better line. It is no slight advantage in this scheme that the interference it offers to any of the existing railways is not considerable, whilst the increased traffic which it is certain to cause on the North Midland Railway, and the traffic which it is calculated to retain to the Lon don and Birmingham Railway, notwithstanding the threatened rivalry of two distinct Manchester and London direct lines ;as also ' the immense traffic both of passengers and goods which it must ! necessarily pour along the Rugby and Oxford line, now under the management of the Great Western Railway Company, appear not only to neutralize the opposition, but to entitle this project to the ` support of each of those formidable bodies. It appears unnecessary in regard to a line of railway like that pro- - posed to go into those details of passenger and goods traffic, which may be necessary where the amouet is questionable ; but as the main - feature of this scheme is the improvement of communication between, and near places, the traffic of which is known to bo immense, it would be Idle to swell the prospectus with any such particulars. It Is sufficient to state that it will be equal to that of any line in the kingdom. The Subscribers will be only liable to the extent of their deposits ; and power will be taken to allow the Shareholders 4 per cent. on the deposit and calls until the opening of the line. The names of the Committee of Management and Officers of the Company will be published in a few days ; and in the meantime any 1 further particulars may be obtained from, and all communications ( addressed to, the Company's Solicitors, Messrs.

The main schemes of the South- Eastern Company were, as you know, thrown out on standing orders. One portion of your plan, that for the accommodation of North Kent, was reported against in common with the scheme of the North Kent Company—the other, for extending accum modation to the south-eastern parts of Kent, including the only direct line to Maidstone proposed in Parliament, failed from the inability of the Committee to consider its merits, at the then late period of the session. The Croydon Enlarge ment Bill alone has received the royal assent. Under these circumstances your Directors have felt it to be their duty, in compliance with the terms of the resolution passed at the late general meeting, to limit the sum to be raised upon the new shares to 1/. 13s. 4d. per share as therein stipulated ; and they have accordingly made a final call of I/. per share, and provided for the registration of eight of these shares for one Croydon share of 201., likewise in accordance with the terms of the resolution. The Bill for a line from Epsom to Portsmouth, in which you are so much interested, after a most searching investigation for six weeks before a Committee of the House of Commons, and a unanimous report in its favour, by a Committee of the House of Lords, was, on that report being brought up to the House, recommitted on a point of form, by a majority of two, which the presence of two Noble Lords, Members of the Com mittee, who were unfortunately absent, would have prevented; and this recommittal, at the extreme end of the session, has had the effect of a postponement to another year. The B:11, however, is underetcod to be entitled to all the privileges in such cases provided by the regulations of last session, and the Directors trust that very shortly after the opening of the next session it will have passed into a law. There never was, per haps, a measure which relied so entirely upon its own merits for defence against the extraordinary and various kinds of oppo sition to which it has been subjected. It is the intention of the Directors forthwith to distribute to the Proprietors the shares in this undertaking held by the Croydon Company. Your Directors congratulate you upon the successful demon stration of the atmospheric system on your line. This demon stration has been delayed much beyond the time which was anticipated, a n d th e delay has been occasioned by the novelty of the apparatus, the desire to effect all possible improvements, and the adaptation of these improvements to your peculiar position. The result, however, so far as it has gone, has been highly satisfactory, and the ex periments which have been already tried upon its power and tractability, have surpassed the expectations of your Directors, although they had previously formed a high estimate of the system, from what they had :witnessed upon the Dalkey where it has been so long in operation. Your Directors anticipate that this success will entitle you to a preference, before Parliament, in respect of any schemes which they may find it desirable to promote for your benefit, provided those schemes are likewise well arranged for the public advantage. Of such a character they trust are the Kentish schemes, as now projected, which are in their opinion so devised as to afford the greatest possible public accommodation, at the least possible cost. Your Directors have found it necessary, with a view to the success of these measures entirely to remodel the lines and reconstitute the plan upon which they were promoted in the last session of Parliament, and in order to give the strongest assurance to the county that they shall be independently carried out, to divest them to a certain extent of their dependance upon the Croydon Company. They propose, therefore, to raise a separate fund for the execution of these schemes, which shall be distinct front the funds of the Croydon Company—but the share of which shall be distributed in the largest proportion among the Proprietors of that Company, as some compensation for the pre-emption to which they have entitled themselves by the outlay already in curred, and the efforts made in the prosecution of this object. A Provisional Committee, composed of some of the chief land ewners in the county, will be appointsd to act for the conduct of the Bill, in conjunction with your Directors. The works on the Epsom line are in active progress, the whole is under contract, and will, as your Directors trust, be ready to open in the course of next summer. Your Directors observe that several schemes have been lately proposed for affording a west-end terminus to the lines converging at London-bridge, and with the promoters of one of these lines they have taken measures to place themselves in communication. Various other schemes, more or less calcu lated to benefit the railway, have been likewise pressed upon the attention of your Directors, but none of them are as yet in a sufficiently forward state to be more publicly noticed. The Profit and Loss Acceunt shows a balance of 15,7681. ss. 10d., out of which your Directors recommend a dividend of seven shillings per share to be made on 44,400 shares. 4% 5 22% 6 10% The CHAIRMAN then moved that the report be re ceived and adopted ; in doing which he stated he would, according to usual custom, snake a few remarks. He congratulated them on the improved aspect of the Com pany's affairs, the receipts for the present half-year being fifty-seven per cent. greater than the cor responding period of last year, and the tolls eight per cent. mere. The expenses, had, however, been also higher. The dividend proposed, though still small, was an improvement, and he had no doubt it would go on progressing till ultimately it would be a full remune ration for the capital invested. The dividend was an in crease of 40 per cent. on that of last year.--(Applause.) He would now glance at the business of the bygone year in regard to their proceedings in Parliament. He re gretted they had not been so successful as he could have wished, still it was alconsolation neither had been their opponents. Upon the whole he did not think they had suffered in their position by the contest, the most of the schemes by which they had been :threatened having, been defeated, thrown out in Committee, or aban doned. It behoved them, however, to look actively to the future, as some of the unsuccessful schemes of last session mere being brought before the public in a modified form. He alluded to the North project, and that supported by the Eastern Counties Com pany. The Hon. Gentleman having referred to the report, showing the necessity of the measure as a means of raising capital to carry out their exten s i on , so as t o defeat their opponents, went into the progress of the at mospheric principle, in connexion with their line. Every step, so far as they had gone, was entirely satisfactory. Several private experiments had been made, but as the engine-power was not as yet under full command, they had not ventured on a public exhibition. Whenever all was perfected it was the intention of the Directors to invite the Shareholders to the first public experiment on the line. As many Share holders, however, present, perhaps, would not be able to attend then, a special train had been provided to run along the line immediately on the termination of their proceedings. He was quite persuaded that the atmospheric principle, when in full operation, would enable them materially to reduce their charges to the public, while it would prove highly profitable to the proprietors. Mr. Samuda, the engineer, had furnished them with a report of his proceedings, which he would read. The Hon. Chairman then read the report which was to the effect that the works had pro gressed in the most satisfactory manner, and were now nearly completed, and that the recent experiments had been completly successful. Having dwelt at some length on the superiority of the atmospheric principle over the one in ordinary use, and at the opposition and bigotry with which it had been met, the Hon. Chair man concluded his address by pointing out on a large map the proposed extensions, being one to Gravesend and another connecting Maidstone, Dover, and Canter bury with London—both to be on the atmospheric system. A PROPRIETOR asked what was the capital proposed for the new lines in Kent ? The CHAIRMAN-2,500,000i. pay stiffer rates. Cloves are wanted, and prices are looking up. In Mace several purcha!ea wade privately at 2a to 3? 2d. Nutmegs alt. it. rev ,:.;, Cinnamon. .. 1 ,11 yt SplltiTs.—To-day Rum, anJ. stiffer rates were paid; indeed, there is not sufficient at market to supply the demand ; sales were made at Is 10d to Is lld per gallon proof. Calcutta is much wanted, and fetched higher rates, vales having been made at Is 10d per gallon proof with certificate. In Jamaica the operations were on a more extended scale, in consequence of rather lower rates being taken. COCHINEAL.—This afternoon the demand was active, and, 124 bags Honduras at auction sold with spirit; si:vers fetched 5s 2d for common to fine, being again 1 d to 2d higher, black, sold at 5s 10d to 6s 7d for middling to fine, being the former worth. OrLs.—Southern has been purchased with caution, and a decline in prices of 5s to lOs per tun has occurred. In Cod few purchases have been made. Seal Oil is held with firmness, and a good demand has been experienced. In Sperm several purchases made privately, and holders mani fest more firmness. With Linseed Oil the market is largely supplied, and there are sellers at further reduced rates. For forward delivery little business has been transacted, the consumption, however, is good. In Rape a fair business has been transacted, the supply at present is but a moderate one. The market has a firm appearance for Olive Oil. Palm is wanted, and command full rates. The demand fallen off for Cocoa Nut Oil, but holders insist upon former terms. Lard Oil is worth 421 to 44/, and Ground Nut 30/ to 321 per tun. l'ALLow.—Town Tallow met with a brisk sale at 42s to 42s 6d nett cash, and the supply is still insufficient for the de mand. All other kinds ol Tallow are warted, and the supply has fallen off. 370 boxes South American sold at 41s 6d to 4ls 9d for fine ; 301 casks of N S Wales, fine 42s 3d to 43s 6d, good 40s 3d to 41s 6d, inferior 38s 3d to 39s 9d ; 78 casks of African 37s to 3es 6d ;20 tubs of E. I. 40s to 425, and 356 casks Taganrog 40s 6d to 42s 6d, and inferior 37s 3d to 403 3d per cwt. The deliveries continue on the in increase, and are greater than last year, being 3,621 casks up to this time. THE LONDON GAZETTE (THIS EVENING.) WHITEHALL, Sam 9, 1845.

Mr. David Brown (Me. Mere:it - 17,a) is a partner in a mercantile house, who mixes up 3 catiaiont and the main chance in the oddest manner possible. His partner is Mr. Whiffen (Keeley) a plain straightforward man of business who makes it his boast that he has never told a lie in his life. David Brown is surprised and disappointed at discovering that his ladye love, Miss Jenkins (Miss Dawson), a young lady with 2,0001. in her own right, has eloped with a gay Lothario ; and Whiffen is surprised and pleased at receiving a note from young Victor de Mont morency (Mr. Wigan), a Frenchman, returning him 501. which he hail borrowed of him, and in viting him to his cottage at Richmond, where he is spending the honeymoon with his young wire. Brown, who is going to the Star and Garter, gives Whiffen cast down in his aig. Now Mrs. Montmorency is the very Miss Jenkins who t. was engaged to Brown, and Mont • morency, who is awfully jealous, has discovered Brown's portrait in his wife's possession ; to appease him the wife declares it is the portrait of her brother Peter Jenkins, and Miss Clear (Mrs. Keeley), the teacher at the bearding school from which the elopement took place, and who has accompanied the lovers, vouches for the truth of the statement. The confusion which arises when Mr. David Brown makes his appearance as the companion of 117hiffen may be easily imagined. Brown, however, is got rid of before any discovery takes place, and iliss Clear, who has her own designs on Whiffea, persuades him to declare to Montmorency that Brown is Peter Jenkins. Old Jerkins, however, arrives, and when Montmorency introduces Whiffen as a friend of the family, and the intimate associate of his son Peter, the ell man is astounded. He has no son. Miss Clear again prompis 'Whiffet'. Peter is a wild dog, has outrun the constable, the father cannot bear to hear Lis name mentioned, and foe Ceet tiine Montmorency is pacified ; but Brown again makes his eppsarenee, and Mont morency is determined to bring about a reconciliation, by introducing them to each other, and then it is dis covered that Peter Jenkins is David Brown. Mont morency declares he will repuliate his wife, and annihilate Whiffen, but again Miss Clear recon ciles everything. She declares that her father hod determined to sacrifice her to arc:qv:: ; that years ago she had been engaged to Whiffen ; that they had kept up a secret correspondence ; and that Whiffen had sent her his portrait by Brown, who, for motives best known to himself, had substituted las ow❑ ; that on Montmorency fading the portrait, his wife, in order to spare her friend's feelings, had said it was the portrait of Peter Jenkins ; but that now all ob stacles being reino7ecl, she can make her dear Whiffen happy—and most happy, too, does she make Mont morency, for she-has an enormous appetite, and be is right glad to get her out of his home. This little play is admirably written and admirably acted. Air. and Mrs. Keeley and Wigan were called for at the con clusion, and the piece was announced ;for repetition amidst unbounded applause. Paris, 3 days' sight 25 CO Ditto, 3 months 26 0 Marseilles 26 5 Bourdeaux 26 10 Frankfort on Maine 122 A SHAREHOLDER asked if there was sufficient capital in hand to carry out the proposed extensions ? The CHAIRMAN answered in the affirmative. To questions from Proprietors, The CHAIRMAN said that he could not positively affirm when the Epsom line would be open, and he did not wish to give any pledge on the subject ; neither could he say when the atmospheric line would be opened, but no time would be lost by the Directors. The prospectus of the new KQnt line would be shortly issued, and he could not say before that time in what proportion shares mi g ht b e ap portioned to the Croydon Proprietors. The report was then adopted. Mr. APLAtraIN moved a resolution that the accounts of the Company should be made out on the system pur sued in 18 11 instead of as at present. The resolution was negatived by an immense ma jority. Several other resolutions in accordance with the re port were then carried, and after a vote of thanks to the Chairman, the meeting broke up. The room was very full ; at !cast 300 persons must have beEn present. Dr: Novra was calk Mr. 'I 4 ,IIALL x 414; I i it well under.steal Fcx shat it was that his euppo,lcrs were about to give their votes on Thursday morning. He came forward especially on the question of the ecclesiastical policy just introduced by Sir Robert P ee l ; an d t hi s h a d b roug h t t i p t h e sub ject of Sir W. Molesworth's opi n i ons on th e nature of religious liberty. That gen tl eman h a d con f esse d hi ms elf an admirer of Hobbes, whose system was this,—that all men are in a state o f na t ura l war one w i t h anot h er ; t h a t it is absolutely ne cessar y, i n or d er to t h e peace o f so ciety, and the due government of human beings, that there should be a central, unlimited, arbitrary power ; that the despot should have power, not simply over the persons and the property, hut over the conscience and the opinions of ail his subjects ; and that it is rebellion against law to profess any other princi ples of religion than those prescribed by the legal authority. A Mr. Maddox, too, had come forward with an address, expressing really terms of rapture on writings which in that same address he confessed he had not read through.—(Hear, hear.) The best service that Sir William Molesworth's sup porters could do to the cause of civil and religious liberty would be to sit down at Hobbes's works early on Thursday morning, aad keep reading on till four o'clock in the afternoon.—(Loud cheers.) He (Mr. Miall) should be mortified to see this election regarded as a fight between Christianity and infidelity —a controversy to be decided not by votes, but by arguments ; nor would he introduce the topic, but for tho absolute con nexion hatween religious opinion and the political sub jects that now came before them for settlement. A definite reply must be made to the Government and to both political parties, who had menaced the country with further interference with religious liberty. It was necessary to know whether Sir William Molesworth's religious opinions were such as to allow of the payment of all religioni:its, degrading the general mind of the people by making the ministers of instruction, who ought to be the first to lead them forward, the tools for effecting the purposes of the aristocracy.—(Cheers.) The Whig press was very wroth with him (Mr. Miall) for forcing his '-crotchet" of voluntaryism on the public; but, deeply interested as he was in the cause of free trade, he felt that the question of the day was, whether this policy of encroachment on our religious liberties was to be fastened upon us or nipped in the bud ? The impending danger to the country came from an eccle siastical quarter ; and if, in our ardour for the repeal of the corn-laws, a proper stand was not taken against it, the people would deserve to be treated not merely as fools, but as slaves.—(Cheers.) He had come forward, further, as the opponent of the new poor-law, and of that system of centralization which, whatever its merits in a merely mechanical and executive point of view, was Perfectly incompatible with the free movements of those institutions, whether municipal or parochial, which we regard as safeguards of freedom.—(Cheers.) On these points he differed from Sir William Molesworth ; and, lastly, on the question of the suffrage. Under the existing system, both parties were " feathering their nests." An immense sum had been squandered by the Ecclesiastical Commission—not in sustaining and helping the poorer churches, or devising fresh means to convey truth to the people, but in building noble palaces for those who ought to be " clothed with humility."—(Cries of" Shame !") The people, i f intrusted with the franchise, would in time see where their interest lay—in the mainterance of order, the protection of property, the sustentation of law, the dispensation of justice. As a believer in the great maxim, "Do unto others as you would they should do to you," and as an advocate for confiding in human nature, recognising in every man a friend and a brother, and raising his self respect by naising his position and station in society, he (Mr. Miall) was for universal suffrage.—(Great cheer ing.) Mr. Miall proceeded to urge his friends to be early at the poll, assuring them of his confidence of being, with their aid, successful. He then sat down amidst general applause. The usual resolution in his favour was moved by Mr. S. ALLEN, a member of the Society of Friends, seconded by Mr. TAYLOR, supported by the Rev. Mr. FOSTER, and carried unanimously, after which the meeting broke up. ACCIDENT ON THE BRIGHTON nAlLWAY.—Yester thy (Monday) morning, as the seven o'clock mixed train from Brighton was aprroaclung the Clayton tunnel slowly, in consequence of the slippery state of the rails from the fog, a pilot engine, proceeding to its usual station at Horley, came up with the train, and struck the last carriage, a third-class, which was unhooked from the train. The passengers in that carriage suffered a severe shock, and many of them jumped out; in so doing, Mr. Neale, of Fleet-street, printer, was cut in the foot, and others sustained some bruises, amongst whom was a lady residing at Clapham. No injury accrued to the engine or carriage. The train was immediately stopped, and the carriage re-attached, and all the passengers, excepting a lady and gen tleman, who, we believe from alarm and not from injury, re turned to Brighton, were brought forward to their respective destinations in safety. [The above account of the accident is given in an evening paper, but at the London terminus the matter was treated very lightly. It was said that the rumour of an accident had originated from the circumstance of two passengers having become alarmel by a slight " shake," and had left the train at the Hassock station, and returned to Brighton.] SERIOUS ACCIDENT FROM FIRE-ARMS. — Yesterday morning, between eight and nine o'clock, a serious accident occurred to Miss Amelia Philips, residing at North Bank, Lisson-grove. Mr. S. Philips, jun., was about leaving town on a shooting excursion, when in a joke he presented his fowl ing-piece at his sister, and imagining the piece to be only on half-cock, he touched the trigger, when the gun went off. The shot carried away a portion of Miss Philip's ear, and lodged in her neck and face, destroying the sight of the right eye. Me dical assistane was procured, and Miss Philips, though severely injured and in great danger, is expected to recover, though dis figured for life. REVIVAL or PECKHAM FAlR.—Yesterday Peck- ham Fair, which for some years has remained in abeyance, in consequence of its having been suppressed by magisterial inter ference, was revived with more than its wonted glory. The spot selected for holding the fair is on the north bank of the Surrey Canal, at Peckham New Town, the fair itself being of great extent. There are a great number of shows, and no fewer thin three booths devoted to horsemanship. Among the attractions for this day (Tuesday), a rowing match is to take place upon the canal between two clowns belonging to rival shows. SUPPRESSION OP A PRIZE FIGHT.—At Woolwich Police-court yesterday, Sergeant Glasscock brought up two prisoners, charged with having been concerned in a prize fight that had taken place that afternoon in the Erith marshes. The prisoners gave the name of John Hick and John Clark, and described themselves as iron-plate workers. The face of Hick, one of the principals, was covered with bruises, the left eye being blackened and fearfully swollen. Sergeant Glasscock deposed that last night he received information that a prize fight was to take place in the marshes. He accordingly went early in the morning with four constables. About ten minutes past one he :ate a mob of about two hundred persons coming towards the Leather Bottle, in the parish of Erith. Before he got up to them two rounds had been fought. Directly he went up the mnb ran away in various directions. The other princi pal got away, but he succeeded in apprehending Hick, who had xi - either shirt nor trousers on. Tin. prisoner at first told him they were fighting for ten sovereigns, but afterwards he said it was only for two sovereigns. Clark got into a boat, and tried to aid Hick in escaping. The defendants were ordered to find good bail to keep the peace, and were remanded till this day. SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO SIR JOHN MORDAUNT.— We most sincerely regret to state that on Tuesday afternoon last, about four o'clock, a very distressing accident occurred to Sir John Mordaunt, Bart., one of the Members for the southern division of this county,- at his seat, at Walton, near Wellesbourne. He was shooting partridges, on his beautiful estate, accompanied by his relative, A. Mills, Esq. While thus engaged they came to a hedge, through a gap in which Sir John raased while Mr. Mills was . waking behind him. The latter was in the act of unlock ing his gun, when by frame means he accidentally touched the trigger, and the whole of the charge entered the calves of both the legs of Sir John, lodging epwards of 100 shots in the left leg, and upwards of 4u in the right leg. He immediately fell to the ground, and was takers up by one of the game keepers, who was in attendance. and instantly con veyed home. We are assured that the medical gentle men do not expect he will be able to walk for many weeks ; up to yesterday afternoon, they had not been enabled to extract any of the shot from the wounds—yet we are informed that the sufferer bears all with an excellent spirit of patience, and even cheerfulness. The sad occurrence has created the utmost anxiety in the neighbourhood, among all classes, as Sir John is universally esteemed for his excellence of heart and great kindness of disposition on all occasions.— Warwick Advertiser. DEATH HY DRINKING.—On Saturday Mr. Baker held an inquest at the Three Cranes, Fashion-street, Spital fields, relative to the death of John Connell, aged forty, a labourer. The room in which the body was viewed by the jury exhibited an appearance of the most abject destitution, there being no bed, and scarcely any furniture. John Waller said that he knew the deceased, who about twelve months ago enjoyed a good state of health. He had since been left an annuity, by which he obtained about 16s. a week. Upon the receipt of that money he and his wife led a life of constant inebriation, the whole of the money being spent in drink. In witness's opinion-his death was brought on from not taking the necessaries of life.- He was offered to be'ada milted into the workhouse, but he refused to go there. Witness advised him to have raedLal assistance, but this he also ob jected to ; and he died en Friday evening. The Coroner asked if the wife was present?—Mr. Hart, the summoning officer, said she was then in a state of intoxication, and un able to attend. Verdict, " .Natural death." At the Court of Assize of the llaut-Rhin, on the 29th, ult , a man named Freyburger, of the commune of Buet wilier, was tried for the murder of M. Wagner, the Cure of that place. M. Wagner was returning from mass on the 10th of June last, when he was fired at and sturck by a ball in the head, and ten days after he expired. Freyburger was sus spected, for he was known to have uttered menaces against the Cure, who some time before had refused to read the burial ser vice over the wife of Freyburger, who had hanged herself, and had also on the following Sunday preached a sermon against sui cide. The man was arrested, and confessed that he had fired at M. Wagner from his window, but he pretended that he had done so because the Curd and some black man had been plotting against him. He gave other symptoms of insanity, but they were supposed to be simulated, and this was the opinion of the jury, for he was found guilty, but with extenuating circum stances. He was sentenced to 2) years' imprisonment with hard labour.— French Paper. THE WEATHER AND CROPS.—With the exception of a slight shower of a couple of hours' duration yesterday, end a change of wind from the west to the east, the weather for the last eight days has been as fine as the heart of man could desire. • The sun has bhene brightly forth from a sky of the purest azure, and the atmosphere although almost fiercely hot, has been dry and breezy, and of the most favourite cha racter for harvest operations. In the earlier districts great progress has been made, and the few stacks in the barn► yard give assurance that no time has been or will be lost. In the secondary districts harvest has barely commenced, but with a continuance of fine weather, all hands will be at work by the beginning of next week at the latest. In the hills, and amongst the latest gri,wing districts, there will be no general harvest before the first of October. Wheat and barley are both well spoken of as to bulk, although it is feared that mach of the former, particularly the spring sown, will be de ficient both in weight and quality. Oats, it is generally feared, will be less productive than on the av, rage, and the same apprehensions are entertained as to beans and peas, which hale shot out to an - unusual length of straw. A fete days; however, will give us some insight both as to the quality and ,produce of the harvest, antwoujaiiiaaka.care that ample in- TornsAtion on this important rfrittevit Lie infer@ our readers.— Qalidontan AfOure.

Bulkeley's Chertsey ROBBING FURNISHED LODGINGS. — Yesterday Thomas Benjamin Matthews, a man of respectable family, who was stated to have been a lawyer's clerk, but for a considerable time without other employment than occasional writing, was charged at the Worship-:treet Police-court, with his wife, with robbing their furnished lodgings. The prisoners had both of them an exceedingly meagre ard pinched look, but their apparel, though scanty and threadbare, seemed to be worn with a scrupulous re gard to cleanliness and ii,.:!riess. The charges against them having been proved, the male prisor - r said he had been driven by distress to the commission of these effencts, a:though he belonged to a family all of whom were higl.ly ropectable, and had himself been well brought up. His father, who is dead, had, he said, been a magistrate, and he has a brother a eltagyman, rector of a parish aL Dancaiter, and it was Lilt on ihauday that he received tidings of the death of his mother. He asserted that, having expectations of property, he intended to make good everything belonging to others that he had made free with under the pressure of distress, and he hoped the magistrate would deal leniently with him. He begged that, at all events, his unfortunate wife, who had acted under his control, should be set at liberty. Mr. Bingham did dis charge the wife, but he remanded the male prisoner till Friday. FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—An accident took place on the Edinburgh end Glasgow Railway on Thursday morning about one o'clock, which was attended with the death of George Macklin, one of the guards. It appears that Macklin has been employed on the line for only four months, and in ac. cordanee with a custom which provides that all new guards be appointed to the charge of luggage trains as an initiatory step, he had charge of a train of this kind which left Glasgow at eleven o'clock on Wednesday night. The train reached Linlithgow in safety, where one of the trucks was to be left, and for the sake of eonvenience it was the last in the train. It was in connexion with this particular truck that Macklin lost hie life, but as no person saw the accident, the particulars cAnnot be given with cer. tainty. From the position, however, in which the body was found, it is supposed to have occurred as follows:—Before the train had been fully stopped he had swung himself on the buffers of the second last truck in order to save himself the trouble of running forward and uncoupling the last one at the proper time; and while in this situation, he had fallen down on the rail, and im mediately the remaining truck passed over his body. The unfor tunate man;was quite unable to speak, and died in about a guar. ter of an hour afterwards.—Scotsman.

(From the London New Price Current of Sept. 9.) SUGAR.--Today a great desire was shown to purchase West India Sugar; the demand was extensive for every description; an increased quantity was taken for the 'outports, and buyers were compelled to pay an advance on the rate of Friday of Is per cwt. REFINED.--To-day the demand was active for refined goods for home con , umption, and stiffer rates were paid, brown lumps selling at as to 665, and standard lumps 67s per cwt. The market has become bare c,f goods. In bonded Crushed there was nothing doing. ....I%IAUILITIUS.—AII descriptions have been inquired after, and the rates offered are equal to those previously quoted, but the quantity on effer by private treaty is trifling, and none has been submitted to public competition. A large parcel will, however, be shortly declared. EAST Izipta.—This afternoon Bengal sugar was in excel lent request, and the parcels submitted to public competition all sold at an advance of 6d to is per cwt. 918 bags consisted of Dobah kind, and sold as follows : fine strong grainy yellow at 62s to 635, good Os to 59s 6d, middling 58s, damp 59s to 62s Gd, washed 57s 6d, drainage damaged .575, low sound grainy yellow 47s to 495, fine brown 45s 6d to 46s 6d, damp 45s to 495, washed 47s ; the remainder consisted of Benares, and fetched 511 to 52s for middling yellow, damp 50516 d to 525, washed 46s 6d to 50s 65, drainage damaged 475 6d to 49s Gd, low sound white 545. Java met with little attention, and 134 baskets, duty paid, at public sale were taken in at 56s for middling strong grey. Foam:lN.—To-day the market was in a quiet state, and by private treaty little business was transacted in any description, although some parties were inclined to sell. At public sale 171 hhds of Cuba Muscovado sold at rather lower rates. Coles - Ex.—To-day holders of Coffee manifested firmness, and supplied the market sparingly. Ceylon was disposed of to a fair extent privately, and good ord brought 47s 6d to 48s per cwt ; at auction 327 bags of Plantation were only partly sold in consequence of stiffer rates being asked. Cocoa.—West India is wanted, and buyers are willing to pay full rates, but at present there is not much in the market : Trinidad red fetched 44s to 49s by private treaty, and grey 43s to 47s per cwt. None had been offered at auction, but 200 bags of Trinidad are declared. For Foreign prices are fully as high, and there are several purchasers. TEA.—Holders manifested firmness, and have refrained from offering any at public sale. Congou has been in excellent a r l e l q s u o e r s t t s .

H n es Oran y g s e onba there s 13 haseenin good demand, been more doing at bu t he t prices do not improve. In Gunpowder a good deal has been done, but at a further reduction in prices. Of Imperial several parcels have been sold in consequence of easier rates being taken. SPlCES.—Pimento install much in request,and:buyers have been compelled to pay stiffer rates. The market is in a quiet ;state for black pepper, but holders are not inclined to reduce their prices; white is still wanted, and the prices sold privately were at former rates. 52 bales of Capsicum were taken in et 50s. East India Ginger is offered at rather lower rates by pri vate treaty, still few buyers are to bo met with. Jamaica is dull of sale, and a little cheaper.

Yesterday evening a crowded meeting of the friends of Sir William Molesworth was held in the Literery In stitution, Borough-road, at eight o'clock. The Theatre of the Institution, which is calculated to hold 1,200 per sons, was crammed to suffocation, and at least as many more were compelled to leave, having been unable to find admittance. Sir William, on entering, was greeted with enthu siastic cheering, which lasted several minutes. Mr. MARTIN was celled to the chair, and proceeded to congratulate the meeting on the prospect they had of returning their candidate, despite of the unworthy con duct pursued by Mr. Miall, in aeeking to divide the li beral interest in the Borough. Sir W. MOLESWORTH then rose to address the meet. ing, but was interrupted by a person in the body of the room, who was, however, put down by the indignant shout that arose from all parts of the Theatre. The Hon. Baronet was then allowed to proceed. He thanked them for the enthusiastic reception they had given him. In all the meetings he had held he had been equally well received, and he believed that his principles had been generally approved of.—(Cheers.) He had so often told them what those principles were that he sup osed they must now have them by heart.—(Cheers.) fie would not, therefore, go over the ground again, but instead he should, with their permission, review the leading; features of the contest as far as it bad gone. And, first, as to the reasons which had induced him to come forward. He had been asked to stand by a num ber of the electors in that Borough, and he was sorry, exceedingly sorry, to find that after his address had been published some of those gentlemen who had prayed him to come forward had gone over to another party.— (Cries of " Shame.") There were but two antagonists in the Borough, for Mr. Pitcher's chairman had pub licly stated that that gentleman's committee had called upon the Liberal electors, asking them to support Mr. Miall in his election.—(Cheers, and cries of " Shame.") and tremendous uproar.) He was, however, confident of success; and when returned to Parliament, he trusted that the angry feelings which now actuated them would be softeneedown, and that they would, even if late, do him full iustiet.—(Cheers.) But what hal first occa sioned this disunion in the Liberal ranks ? Why, the question of Maynoeth.--(Cheers and hisses.)—Bid he shirk that question ?—(Cries cf " No, no," and cheering, which was greatly increased when- a steatorian voice shouted out—" You're a straightforward honest man.") —Sir William attempted to address the meeting in con tinuation, but was obliged to sit down fora time, as it was absolutely impossible to make himself heard in con sequence of the confusion arising from the dense crowd admitted into the building. After eon siderabio exertion on the part of the Chair man, the Honourable Baronet proceeded to explain his reasons for holding that the grant to Maynooth was a just one. Would any man there find fault with a measure which provided that a proper education should be given to the ministers, who were to direct, at a future period, the religion of seven millions of Irishmen? Let them do away with the monster church of Ireland —(cheers)—that incubus which pressed upon the ener gies of the country—(continued cheering)—and then the Irish would not ask this country for their paltry grant.—(Cheers and disapprobation.) A voice, "Be quiet, lot."—(Roars of laughter.) But this con test had turned not upon the proper political questions, but upon matters peculiar and personal to himself.— (Cheers.) The enemy, finding that they were driven from the one position, the hypothetical question as to what he should have done on the subject of Maynooth if he had been in the House of Commons, had tried other ground.--(Cheers.) The last question that heel been raised—the last charge that lead been made, had been that he had edited the works of Thomas Hobbee of Malmesbury.--(Cheers, hisses, and great confusion.) At this time a person who had repeatedly interrupted the Hon. Baronet by his ill-timed and ridiculous ob servations, was ordered by the chairman to be turned out of the room. In a second the unfortunate wight was with a degree of violence altogether unnecessary, pitched over the seats to the very feet of Sir Wm. Molesworth, and thence out to the street. A second person who had ventured to question the pro priety of this coarse, was by the same summary process ejected, and the rapidity of the punishment having quieted tho other malcontents the Candidate con tinued. He explained the nature of Hobbes' works, aecl defied any of his opponents to produce from those works one line, or one sentence inimical to Christianity.— (Cheers.) Just before he had come to that meeting a paper (the Potriot) had been put into his hands, and there he found many extracts from Hobbes, but these he would inform them were garbled, and to understand them they should be read with the context. Those extracts, however, could not be tortured into anything derogatory to religion.—(Cheers.) Thomas Hobbes, he repeated, was one of the most profound writers of the times of the Commonwealth, and he (Sir Wm. Molesworth) should have thought he was doing a service to the literature of his country by spending a few thousand vends in editing the works of this great man— (Cheer ing.) But he had been charged with having opened public-housea in the Borough.—(Cheers, and hear, hear.) He indignantly denied the charge. Another imputation had been made against him—a charge of wilful falsehood—by a person well known to them all. That person was Mr. Feargus O'Connor— (Great con fusion, groaning, &c.)—and were he alone to Le satis fied he should disdain to reply.—(Cheers.) Bat he was asserted to have advocated universal suffrage.---(Cheers and confusion.) He denied it most unequivocally.— (Cheers.) Here a Chartist with the most admirable sang ,froid coolly distributed bills purporting to quote Sir Witham Molesworth's speech in favour of universal suffrage. The confession that arose egg r; description, but notwitbstaraling the shouts of " put hire out," " arrorti him over." the undaunted bill distriLutor stood his ground. Sir Williens thanked them for their hied ness and sat down. Mr. liowEnnsaid that there had be e n aclnt , i nterupt i on to their proceedings, but from whom had it arisen ? From professed Chartists—the tools of Feargus O'Ci.;n nor.—(Chsers, and tremendous confulion.) He (Mr. Howell) was that night entrusted with a resolution, pledging the meeting to the support of Sir William Molesworth ; he did not expect that it would be carzied unanimously, for he observed that there were several well known persons in the meeting banded to oppose it. —(Cheers and hisses.) Why, even they were, if they but told the truth, in faVour of Sir Willi am M o l eswort h 's principles, and on every question excepting one—the Maynooth grant.—(Cheers and hisses.) He would tell thorn what had occurred that morning to himself, and it was one of those things that, better than anything else, tested the opinions of candidates.—(Cheers.) Mr. Filcher had called upon him that morning, and after some con versation, told him that, if Sir Robert Peel brought in a measure next seasion for the repeal of the corn-laws, he (Mr. Filcher), if in Parliament, would support him.— (Cries of " Oh, oh.") Now, would they not rather put their faith in the straightforward, than in the candidate who varied in his opinions.—(C!tecra.) Ile might inform them that it had been sail that Mr. Filcher had promised, in the event of his being re• turned, to defray the half of Mr. Miall's expenses. Mr. HEARNE, in seconding the res;liiti,a, said that some gentlemen canvassing for Mr. Filcher had called upon his wife and so frightened her with stories of Sir William Molesworth's infidelity that the good hey had threatened if he (Mr. Hearne) did not revoke his pro mise to vote against Mr. Miall, that he should not have an hour's sleep—(Laughter)—and he had therefore made up his mind not to sleep at all till after the election. The resolution was carried by 'a groat majority. Thanks were awarded to the Chairman, and the meet ing broke up at ten o'clock. • I _, MEETING OF MR.
