Bendel, Esq., F.R.S. SECRETARY — D. I. Noad, Esq. Offices, Broad-street-buildings. At a Board of Directors of this Company, held at these offices the 22d day of October, 1845, It was unanimously resolved, First —That the East India Railway Company was formed in the spring of this year, after many months of preliminary discussion and communication with °Metal anthorities, for the purpose of carrying out the views and objects or the projectors in the introduction of railways into India. Second— That the promoters of the undertaking 'abstained from adopting any measures towards the formation of a company until they had satisfied themselves of the disposition of the Government of India to support the undertaking by 'pecuniary aid in auras shape, on which basis this Company was accordingly established, its object being (as stated in the prospectus) to execute the line of railway which should be selected by Government, with the ulterior eaten sions'and developments consequent upon it. Third—That, in furtherance of these views, the Managing Director of this Company proceeded to Calcutta in the month of July last, accompanied by a staff of surveyors, for the purpose of making the necessary surveys, obtaining the requisite information. and of ascer taining the views of the local Government, prior to the final arrange ments for commencing operations. Fourth—That the information obtained in the course of several years of preliminary inquiry inclined the projectors to the belief that, subject to any unforseen circumstances, the line from Calcutta to the north-western provinces, by Mirzapore, was the most needed by India, and most calculated to yield a profitable return for investment of capital, and it was therefore that line which was advocated in the first communication with the Government, the selection being left to the Government. Fifth—That subsequent to the formation of this Company, various projects have bees announced to the public for constructing railroads in Western India, some of them forming part and portion of the scheme of the East Indian Railway Company, and to which the surveys and the operations of the Committee In Calcutta may pos sibly at this moment be directed as an important feature in the de sign of Goverment. Sixth—That under these circumstances it appears to this Board to be their imperative duty in the interest of this Company to adopt such measures as will have the effect of securing to the Company the benefit of their original scheme in its full integrity. Seventh—That with this view, and in order to prove to the Go vernment of India their full means of carrying out any arrangements which it may be disposed to make with this Company for the con struction of railways on an extended settle (in the event of its being essential to the scheme of the Government so to commence), it is desirable that the capital of this Company should be increased to ten millions, by the issue of new shares. Eighth—That 120,000 shares of 501. each be created, en which a deposit of ss. will be forthwish payable ; that of this number 80,000 shares be distributed rateably among the approved holders of the Scrip already issued, in the proportion of one new for one old share; and that the remaining shares, subject to the necessary allotment to the new Directors, bo reserved to be disposed of hereafter, as maybe found advantageous for the interests of the undertaking. Ninth—That these resolutions be advertised in the Daily News papers, for the information of the Pr )prietors and the public. GEORGE L A RPENT, Chairman. In conformity with the above arrangement it is requested that all holders of scrip desirous of availing themselves of the above provi sions, do send in their scrip on or before the 20th November next, accompanied by an application addressed to the Secretary in the fol owing form : To the Provisional 'ommittee of the East Indtin Railway Cotnpanv.

This railway will connect the east and west coasts, and form a direct route from the ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood-on-Wyre, and Lancaster, to .Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Commencing at Lancaster, it will proceed up the valley of the Lune, by Kirkby Lonsdale, Sedbergh, and Kirkby Stephen, and thence by the most practicable line to New castle. It will run nearly parallel with the old coach road, which has hitherto been the principal passenger route from Lancaster to Newcastle. It will readily.be conceded that great benefits will flow from a direct railway communication between the coal-fields and mining districts of Durham and Northumberland, and the important towns and ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood, Newcastle, and Lancaster. The entire length of the line is rich in mineral productions—coal slate, limestone, marble, and other elements of a great local tragic abound, and cannot fail to make this one of the most remunerative projects of the day. A considerable saving of distance between the important towns on the termini is effected over any existing or pro jected scheme. It will be reserved to the Committee of Management to make suck alterations inthe line, or the amount of capital required, or other wise, as may be deemed most advantageous to the Interests - Abe Company. Power will be applied for to allow Interest at the rate of four per cent. on the calls from the passing of the Act to the opening-Of the line, as well as to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscriptions only.

T" public is most reApectfully informed that Messrs. NICOLL have received permission, according to the specification in the Act 6 a n d 7 Viet., cap 65, to alter and otherwise adapt the coat, known as the REGISTERED PALETOT, to be suitable for winter wear, and it is now being made of a thicker ma terial, viz., of milled llama cloth; it is waterproofed by the new method, which, it is well known, does not unnecessarily confine the heat of the body, but the material, when thus operated upon, remain , as porous as other that has not undergone this process, the effect being that it does not sop, and will turn a stout shower of rain, but Hot that of 21 hours' duration. Nicoll's Registered Paletot for winter wear is a garment that is warm without being heavy, which, evert for travelling, the necessity of wrapping up in a cumber• some manner, has of late years been found needless, distances being so much shortened by present railway and other conveyances. Nicoll's Registered Paletot, used alone as a mornlng frock coat, not over another, is found to be a most agreeable garment for walking exercise ; and from the skilful way it is formed, it does not confine the chest or shoulders, but has an equally neat and gentlemanly appearance when worn in cold wet weather, or in the evening over a morning or dress coat. The price is three guineas, that for summer wear being two. It may be ob served that those principles are retained that has obtained for the Registered Paletot the patronage of mere than one of the Crowned Heads of Europe. The Prince • Consort, Prince George of Cambridge, the chief members of the Court, prin• elpal families in the kingdom, who it is well known are distinguished in their takte for perfect neatness of dress. The Regis tered Paletot having th&efore necessarily excluded anything vulgar or outré in appearanca, would alone recommend itself to the notice ot the respectable members of the middle classes, was it not further as ' sisted by its moderate price, being for ready money. It may be ob tained of the principal tailors of the chief provincial cities ; but as only most of the respectable firms are appointed agents, any attempt on tke part of others will thus by the public be at once detected, and such attempts, when known, will be visited by the penalties provided in the Act beforementloned ; and In furtherance of which a reward of fifty pounds will be paid for information that may lead to the eonviation of such parties by H.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. EXETER AND WEYMOUTH. WEvatorrir, Nov. 17.—A very numerous and highly in fluential meeting was held this day in the Guildhall, to take into consideration a proposed scheme of coast railway com munication between Weymouth and Exeter. Among those present we observed R. Gordon, Esq., Captain Manning, H. William, Esq., Gooden, Esq., R. Urquhart, Esq., Tre now, Esq., Arnold, Esq., Phillips, Esq., Capt: Balston, John Cree, Esq., Swaffield, Esq., Messrs. Templar, Gundry, and Battiscombe, from Bridport ; John Henning, Esq., Ad miral Hancock, Lieut. Atkinson, Dr. Martin, Mr. John F Hodges, Dr. Knight, &c. &c., and the principal tradesmen of the town. The present was an adjourned meeting from Monday, Nov 3, at which meeting a deputation of the Exeter, Dorchester . and Weymouth Coast line attended, and stated their views and intentions. This led to a very warm and lengthened discussion, the majority being of opinion that, if the meeting sanctioned the proposed coast line, it would not be acting in good faith to the Great Western Company, by whom the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Railway Bill hal been ob tathed : and who, in addition, had announced their intention of constructing a coast line from Exeter to Bridport, therelo join the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth line. At length the following amendment was mutually agreed to:— " That the meeting should be adjourned to Monday, the 17th Nov., in order to afford the Directors of the Wilts, So merset, and Weymouth Railway an Opportunity of attending and explaining their views to the inhabitants." Accordingly the meeting was this day held; the following gentlemen appearing as a deputation on behalf of the Exeter , Dorchester, and Weymoutl! Coast line :—Mr. Crew, Mr. Hopkins, engineer, Edward E tiit k, Esq., solicitor to the line; and the following represented the Great Western Company— Sir John Aubrey, Director of the Wilts, Somerset, and Wey_ mouth Railway, Sanders, Secretary to the Great Western Company ; Slade, Esq., Director of the Great Western Company ; Brunel, engineer, and Barlow, Esq., Director of the Great Western Company. The chair was taken at twelve o'clock by Wm. Legg, Esq., the late Mai or, who, having read the resolution by which the meeting was convened, called on the gentlemen repre senting the Exeter, Dorchester, and Weymouth Coast line. War. ELIOT, Esq., desired to impress on the inhabitants of Weymouth the importance of the object which had called them together. He retraced the history of railway projec tions to the town of Weymouth, which commenced at a public meeting held a year since, having reference to the mail packets. It was there stated that other watering-places were reaping their full benefit from railways, and that it was high time to stir themselves to the formation of a railway commu nication to Weymouth. He, with the Mayor and some others, held a correspondence on the subject with Mr. Brunel and other officers of the Great Western Company, who fell into their views most cordially. The correspondence and conference with them resulted, as is known, in their offering them a line of railway known as the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Railway. Since then this Bill had passed into law. The Southampton and Dorchester line had also passed into law ; so that they were now in a different position from what they then were. He would take this opportunity of stating to the gentlemen of the Great Western Company that considerable dissatisfacti.m has been felt at the protracted delay in the construction of the line from Weymouth—(Hear, hear.) But he had no doubt that those gentlemen would be prepared to give a sati4acto - y explanation of the cause of that de lay.—(Hear.) He could not forbear impressing on them the necessity, the urgent necessity of an early opening of the line, more especially as the Southampton and Dorchester line was in rapid progress, and which will, when com pleted, cause a diversion of the trade from the port of Weymouth to the port of Poole. He referred to the formation of a company for constructing docks at Ply mouth. Where was there a port more eligible for a large export and import trade than Weymouth—from its proxi mity to the Channel Islands, to the south of France; and especially, when taken in conjunction with the proposed Go vernment harbour of refuge at Portland roads. He hoped that measures would be immediately taken for the formation of a dock company. As regards the conduct of the Gr. at Western Company towards Weymouth, it has been mos honourable throughout ;—while other lines refused to pass over Ridgway-hill, they came forward with a scheme just suited to their wants. As this was an important matter, he hoped that their decision would be such as should pro mote the best interests of Weymouth. Sir JOHN AUBREY, Director of the Great Western Com pany, :teed that he was not aware until then of any dis satisfaction existing on account of the delay in commencing the works. He was not a director of the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Railway, but was a director of the Great Western Company; but their interests were intimately con nected. He would leave Mr. Brunel to reply to the ques tion of delay, excepting that he was quite sure that the only cause was the extreme pressure of business. He thought that the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Railway should not be behind the Southampton and Dorchester. He regarded Weymouth as an important port, and particularly so when taken in connexion with the proposed harbour of refuge. He thought that the Back Water at Weymouth might be ren dered serviceable for docks, and doubted not but that the Di rectors of the Great Western Company and the Wilts, So merset, and Weymouth Railway would see that it Wes to their own interests so to improve the port. It was well known that the Government would prefer Weymouth as the route to the Channel Islands rather than Southampton. Partly in conjunction with the Wilts, Somerset, and Wey m Aith Railway, the Great Western have projected a line from Bridport to Exeter, with branches to Axminster and Honiton. This was the present road traffic, andhethought that no other line that could be p ro j ected would give greater advantages to the public. Mr. BRUNEL said that no further delay in the construction of the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth line had taken place than what was consequent on a line of such magnitude. In no line with which he was connected had the works been com menced in less time than would be the case with the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth. It was true that some lines had male their contracts before applying to Parliament, and pro ceeded with their works immediately on the passing of the Bill. But that was not the usual way, and he questioned the wisdom i of such a plan ; and if a Company or the public were gainer in the end by such haste, that minute attention which was necessary in such a work was often neglected. If he were asked why the Wilts, Somerse, and Weymouth line had not been commenced, he would say that a new and accurate survey of the whole county, with a view of improving the line, had been made, and much difficulty had thus been overcome, and many improvements effected. Between Weymouth and Dor -4/ //, 2_ - 0 , // e cheater much reran had been made, which would lead to ultimate improvement. He did not think. that the - So - ton and Dorchester line would be opened so soon as they oc pected, so that theirs would be no such great time behind them as some were led to suppose. The engagements of the Great Western Company were now very numerous and urgent, and which would not cease until the 30th of November. As for the Great Western Company having relinquished the line to Weymouth, nothing was further from truth ; no post ponement or abandonment was ever thought of. The Great Western Company was equally involved in an early completion of the line. The Directors had more than once urged him to commence, and he should think that within a month the line between Weymouth and Dorchester will be in active -- ritOg+ess:-=-(Cheers.) The Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth line was regarded as more important than ever, and they had now projected a line from Bridport, as stated - by Sit John Aubrey, that had met with the sanction and support of all the noblemen and landowners in the district through which it passes. This, with other lines projected in con nexion with the Great Western Company would connect them with every part, Se.c. Be did not think that the Exeter, Weymouth, and Dorchester Coast Junction would give them any adVantage that their scheme did not possess. As regards the improvement of the port of Weymouth, he thought the Great Western and the Bristol and Exeter Com panies would be deeply interested.in the improvement of all their termini. Few places were capable of greater improve ment than Weymouth, and he doubted not but that tivtgreat Companies referred to would lend them their best nil to this object.— (Cheers.) Mr. HoPKINS, engineer of the Exeter, Weymouth, and Dcrehe•te: Coast line, stated that the Company he repre sented were not the opponents of the Wilt., Somerset, and 'Weymouth line. They wished it success, as it would contri bute to the prosrerity of their line. The line they proposed brought them nine miles nearer Bridport than the line the Great Western offered them. Consider it is a coast line which the Government are disposed to encourage. Mr. Brunel seems to think light of a coast line, though he (Mr. Brunel) was connected with the South Devon coast, with which the line he advocated would be connected. He (Mr. Hopkins) objected to the Great Western Company endeavouring to mcnopolise the whole of the south coast, and hoped that this meeting would consult their own interests, which of the two lines will most benefit Weymouth. Their survey was made, plans advanced, capital raised, and every prospect of the line passing this session. They purpose continuing the rail to your quay, and since their intentions were known the Great Western Company purposed doing the same thing; so that Weymouth must thank the Exeter, Weymouth, and Dorchester coast line for any improvements which will follow. SLADE, Esq. (late of the western circuit, now Director of the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Railway), confirmed the statement made by their talented engineer, that the works in the neighbourhood of Weymouth would commence immediately. Re would ask the people of Weymouth if they were prepared to support them. The Great Western came to them in their extremity. Who are they that appear to advocate the Weymouth, Dorchester, and Exeter line ? Where do they come from—on the broad or narrow gauge? They speak of their proposed connexion with the Southatnp ton line; why Southampton is your greatest opponent. To that port ycn have to attribute your present depressed state. By whom were your mail packets to the Channel Islands re moved? Is it to the Great Western Company or the London and South-Western Company that you must look to replace you in your proper position? Who are likely to restore to you communication with the Channel Islands ? He asked, did they wish to be the terminus of a line which connected them with the north of England, or with a line which brought them in connexion with the competing ports of Southampton and Poole. Stick by us, and we will stick by you. Our interests are identical. If you sink, we sink—you swim, we swim—and, please God, we will swim all together. INSANITY, Tub; LANCET.—DR.

The answer is, that he is the poet of domestic life ; he brings all the endearments of Home berore us; he is the poet of Nature, which he describes in all its diversified aspects ; and lie is also the poet of Christianity, for no man contributed more to the re vival of Protestant Christianity when it had sunk to the level of mere morality.

MYSTERIOUS MORTALITY. On Monday at noon. Mr. WakleY, M.P., commenced a most extraordinary inquiry at the Middlesex Hospital, touching the deaths of Wm. Lambert, aged 17, and Henry Lambert, aged 13, forming part of a family residing at No. 33, Cum berland-market, Regent's-park, and carrying on the bUsi ness of plumbers and painters. In order to make the case perfectly clear, the reporter thinks it right to state that the father of the deceased youths died three months ago, and that a brother, aged 20, and a young sister are now lying dead at their residence, and that a fourth brother is in the hospital hourly expected to expire. They have all died, the father probably ex cepted, of the same disease, or rather of the same symptoms. One of the hospital nurses said that the deceased was ad mitted on the 4th instant, with a younger brother not yet dead, all labouring under delirium. 'William died on Thurs day night, and Henry on Saturday last. When they were brought in the mother said their disease was scarlatina. The deceased, Henry, complained of violent sore throat. Mr. Corfe, the house apothecary, addressing the Coroner, said—Sir, this is a most extraordinary case. Here is a fanilly of eight persons, four of whom have already died of the same complaint. ' Two died at their home, two in this hospital, and there is another here now, who in all probability will share the same fate. Sir, I must tell you that this case rgquires a most scrutinising investigation on your part. The Coroner, on hearing these preliminary remarks made, in a most emphatic manner, ordered the room to be cleared of strangers, when ar. examination of Mr. Corte took place, the result of which the reporter had reason to know was not conclusive af , Ito the cause of death. The bodies of the youths who died in tin hospital were opened, hut the contents of their stomachs were not analysed. The Coroner ordered them to be analysed, and also directed that a post mortem examina tion should be made of the bodies lying dead at No. 33, Cumberland-market. He then adjourned the inquest to Monday next. Mr. Wakley, at an inquest held on Monday in the New Model Prison, made the following remarks relative to these mysterious deaths:—" He said that out of a family of nine persons, four had died in a very short time. Their symp toms showed that they had died from the operation of some sort of poison, certainly not a mineral one. It was a most extraordinary case, and one that was as yet enveloped in mystery. There appeared, however, to be enough to induce him to believe that the parties died either from having eaten impure meat of some kind or other, or from having inhaled impure gases emitted by the sewers of the neighbourhood (Cumberland-market) in which they lived. There had been a most foetid discharge from the nostrils of the diseased and deceased parties, similar to that of glanders; but there had been no evidence to show that any of them had ever come into contact with a glandered animal. There were huge swellings throughout the necks of the deceased, and other very extraordinary appearances in the joints of the members. The patients, while labouring under this mysterious and fatal disease, displayed a most extraordinary appetite, eating rump steaks in considerable quantities. The occurrence was quite frightful ; and if it had ciccurred there (in the New Model Prison) they should have attributed it to something or other connected with that establishment. It showed how cautious juries ought to be in drawing conclusions not warranted by the clearest and mot positive evidence." [ ADVERTISEMENT. —BOTANIC WATER AND BEAR'S GREASE.—When the hair is becoming thin, and falling off, the only effectual remedy, besides shaving the head, is the use of the t above-named articles, app'ied alternately—the bo tanic water to cleanse the roots from Scurf and as a stimulant, and the bear's grease as a nourisher. If any further evidence was required of the virtues of bear's grease for renovating and preserving the hair, Mr. Catlin's account of the quantity used, and the length of hair obtained by some of the North Ame rican Indians, would be a sufficient answer. Ross and Sons, 119, and 120, Bishops ate-street, who first introduced the use of bear's grease in this country, and who fat and kill the ani mals, recommend the public to purchase none other but with their names and address printed on the pot, or the chances are their obtaining a spurious article. All vegetable oils applied to the hair are worse than useless.

P. Oates, Esq., the warden, in the chair, to consider the proposed line of the Birmingham, Lichfield, and Manchester Railway. Amongst the gentlemen present were the Rev. R. Mendham, the Rev. J. Packwood, Messrs. Holbeche, Horton, Baron Webster, V. Holbeche, Eccleston ' Oughton, R. Sadler, Proctor, Bodington, Kempson, and indeed most persons of respectablity in the town and neighbourhood. Several very spirited speeches were made, and the meeting, which was unanimous in the expression of indignation at the manner in which they considered the inhabitants to have been treated by the company, as well as anxious for an advantageous railway communication, stated, in the most decided terms, their determination to oppose any line through the parish which did not afford the necessary accommodation to the town.' A Committee was appointed to take such steps as might be requisite, and it was understood that no effort would be spared to make the opposition effectual. Letters upon the subject, with copies of the resolutions, were for warded the same night, to Sir R. Peel and other influential freeholders in the parish, to the Members for the county, and to several gentlemen at Erdington and Shenstone, the co operation of which places appears to be confidently looked tor.

B, Bone, Esq., coroner, at the Queen's Head, Stonehouse, on the body of an infant hild, which had been found with its throat cut, at the residence of Mrs. Salmon, a lady in Durnford-street. From the evidence it appeared that Ann Heard, servant to the above -named lady, was on Monday .Imt found to have been delivered of a child, the child being in the same room where the young woman was then in bed. A post mortem examination had taken place, by which it was discovered that the child was born alive. The jury having consulted, returned a verdict of " Wilful. Murder against Ann Heard," who is now in custody, and will be removed to the county gaol as soon as the state of her health will permit. The Lord Bishop of Rochester has taken full pos session of the new episcopal palace at Danbury; and his Lordship has already evinced that liberal spirit and kind con sideration for those around him, which are so calculated to win the good-will and affections of all those amongst whom his future residence is fixed. On Thursday, his domestic establishment and part of the family arrived at the palace, and were welcomed by a merry peal of the village bells, the ringers being liberally rewarded, and afterwards provided with a substantial supper. His Lordship has handsomely considered the servants of the late occupier whom he found upon the premises, and for such as he has not retained he made liberal arrangements till they could obtain fresh situa tions. In fact, the Right Rev. Prelate has shown an ear nest desire to make his presence amongst us conducive to the happiness and comfort of all those with whom he comes in contact. —Essex Herald. REPRESENTATION OF ANTRIM.—The death of Mr. Irving in London, on Monday last, leaves a vacancy in the representation of the county of Antrim. We have heard several gentlemen mentioned as likely to fall quietly into the vacant scat—such as the Hon. George Handcock, who would carry a large territorial influenee in his favour; and Mr. Ma zartney, of Lissanoure, who has long taken an active part in county business.—Banner of Ulster. . 11 .
