A:though tberdwere no orders on the market for the pur chase of either Barley, Oats, Beans, or Peas, for shipment to the continent, those articles were steady, and previous rates were well supported. The supply of English Barley was very small; however the sale tir it was somewhat active, at a rise in the quotations of is pn. quarter. For the best parcels of Malt we had a . steady demand, at is per quarter more money; while the value of other kinds was freely sup ported. Comparatively speaking, very few samples were unsold at the market's close. We had a very short supply of Oats on sale. For all kinds the sale was active, at is per quarter more money.

For the - primest Scots, &c., the demand was steady, at fully last week's quotations ' viz. from 3s 10d to 4s . per 81bs : but the middling and inferior breeds were a slow inquiry, at barely stationary prices. Flom the northern counties, we received about 1,600 short- horns; from the eastern districts, 300 Scots, home-breds and short-horns; from the western and midland counties, 500 Herefords, Devons, runts, &c. ; from other parts of F.rgland, 500 of various breeds ; from Scotland,. 90 Scots ; and, from Ireland, 100 Beasts. The numbers elf Sheep were but mode rate. The best half-breds sold steadily. With other breeds, the trade was inactive. In prices, we can notice no altera tion. For Calves, the numbers of which were by no means large, we had a slow sale, at Friday's currencies. Pigs were in good request, and prices were well supported. SUPPLY AT MARKET, Beasts. I 0 Sheep.

The supplies of Beef killed in the metro polis being somewhat extensive, the sale fur it is in a sluggish state, at barely previous quotations. Mutton, Veal, and Pork are in short supply and ready demand, at very full prices. A. few carcases of Dutch Beasts and Sheep have been disposed of on low terms, arising from inferiority of quality. BOROUGH AND SPITALPIELDS. In the past week about 800 tons of Potatoes have arrived at the water side from Scotland and our own coasts.

A Company has be-n brought forward fur the construc tion of a brAge - acres', the Thome., , , from a paint between Chelsa HoSpital and the Ciisvcci,or Canal, to the Surrey shore near the Red House, at Battersea. The necessity of such a structure., as it public work, is now very generally admitted, d the distance between Vauxhall and Batter sea bridges is very great, and includes an immense mass of buildings and a large population. The Commissioners of Metropolitan Improvements, indeed, in their plans accom panying their report to the House of Commons, on proposed improvements in this district, have laid down roads, appa rently with the express view of leading to a communication with the Surrey side of the river, at the point . proposed by the promoters of the Ranelagh Bridge. The proposed bridge is intended to be upon the suspension principle. Instead of the old plan of erecting two piers in the waterway, supporting a centre • chain of great span, there will be only one pier in the river, midway between the two shores. and a great saving will consequently be effected in pile driving, masonry, &c.; whilst •th.e two chains will not be of any Considerable length, and consequently, as the strain will be lees, they may either Le made to .bear a greater weight, or they may .he safely constructed with a smaller quamity of iron than Tinder the old system. The arrange ment of the structure, although very simple and obvious, is, we believe, entirely novel, and is worthy of the rising repu tation of the engineer, Mr. Bird. The expenses for ap proaches will be .very trifling. On the Middlesex side there is very little to be done, and such property at it will be necessary to purchase •on either side of the river is vacant, and of comparatively little value, and consequently, the item of compensations, usually so large .in concerns of this nature, cannot in any event amount to any considerable sum, especially as all the parties are favourable to the undertaking, on account of the great increase which it will create in the value of all property in the locality. The capital proposed is 90,000/. uhich is sufficient to pro , vide amply for the whole of the works to be executed and for every necessary expense, particularly as there is no pros pect of any Parliamentary opposition. To a very. considerable-. population it will afford peculiar conveniences, and look ing at the immense district for which it will provide increased accommodation, we have no doubt the concern will yield very ample returns on the capital engaged in it. Ac cording to the best calculations, based upon the returns of the neighbouring bridges, the tolls will not be less ,than B,OOOL, being about nine per cent. upon the proposed capital, part of which may very probably not be required. The tolls will be so much clear profit, as the out-goings after the com pletion of the bridge will be very smell, and will be met by the dues arising from a steam-boat pier in the centre of the river, which forms part of the project. On the development of the . trallic under the cheap toll system, the produce will probably amount to a much larger sum. It is a most important advantage for the scheme that it has the approval and support, not only of the owners of property affected, but also of the Lords Commissioners of Chelsea Hospital, and in consequence of the safe passage of the Com pany's Bill through Parliament may be looked forward to as certain. In conclusion, we must observe, that whilst the works will be constructed on perfectly sate and substantial princip!es, the capital is very small in proportion to the pro bable dividends to be derived from the undertaking, and we can confidently recommend it to such of our readers as may be looking out for a solid, remunerative, and permanent in vestment. —Railway Times. .s FORTIN G 'INTELLIGEN CE. (Fuom cant CORRESPONDENT . The fret cf tie. October Meetingscim hardly be said to be an imprm . cmf': - .t on its p; eticeessoi a, although one or two of the races .;et down to be run in it were prtiductive of great speculation a,:l exciting interest. The fields in most in etances were abort, owing to th e superior attractians of the programme for next week. The good effects of Lord George's taking office were visible by the introduction ofthe telegraph and the addition of the jockeys' names is the list. Several other improvements of a minor nature were carried into effect; and If the two stands are erected, which are Conternp, lated, a new era in Newmarketbistory may be said to have taken place from the date of his Lordship's stewardship. Scarcely any of the Goodwood horSes were fit; and it is to be hoped that the lot they send for the Cesarewitch will be a little more prepared, or their backers' chances will be hopeless. On Wednesnday the Old Trial Stakes actually produced a race, and Oakley put the valuable sum of twenty sovereigns into the pocket of his noble owner with the greatest ease. We then had -the brat of the Great Two Year-old Stakes of the season, viz. the Hopeful, for which only three animals were foUnd at their post, and although they bet as little as 9 to cagainst Cuckoo, she was beaten in a canter, by a mare that has been running all over the count ry and that was not trusted even with a Ever. The 1 - „rtneral impression on the heath was, that she w as amiss, and I am inclined to coincide in the opinion. Next cline the race of the meeting, the Grand Duke Michael, and the interest it excited was as great' as ever. lhe old admirers of Idas still stuck to him with confidence, and his enemies were equally active iu their operations against him. The race was entirely a match between the Turquoise colt and the favourite, ho, to the diSmay of his backers, was beaten on the post by a head. The public ought IT this time to be acoainted that a gamer animal than Lord Lonsdale's colt never st enped upon Newmaik,-t-heath. In the Iluckenham Stakes, which followed, Colonel Peel pulled out Samphire instead of Queen Anne, and the altera tion did not impair his luck, as she wen bya bead. tier success, however, is not to be attributed to much - to lier:elf as to Mr. Wieford having foolishly put .up Alfred Day, in stead of old Sam, who would have been able to have made a better finish with Nat than his young relative. • In the match which concluded this day's sport the favourite just won, and that was all. The Gallant Memberfor West minster's talent in match making was, however, not dis graced by the result. In the evening a little business was done on the Cesare witch, Wee Pet being moat in demand. On Wednesday we were gratified - and surprised by a dead heat for the sweepstakes, which actually gave us three races for the day. _ _ In the fit. Leger the Turquoise colt again followed up his success of the day before, and beat the winner of the Oaks, with 5t04 on her, by five length!. As she wag. only taken out of the van ten minutes before the race her defeat did not surprise me. _ it is worthy of remark, that ouf of the immense number of 'fuses now at Newmarket eight only came out to-day. On Thursday we had a capital day's sport, and every body was satisfied. The Town Plate was Avon by Longitude, from two very middling animals, and her stable companion, Green Pea, by Nat's fine riding, just contrived to secure the . Rutland kn. his noble owner. thought Buttress was much improved since I saw her last. The Sweepstakes of 5 sovs , for two years old, brought three to the post; and as the sum they contended for was so large, and the spirit with which they contested it was so remarkable, I shall put down their names here. The trio were Lord Albemarle's Nell Cook, Lord George Bentinck's Astern, and Mr. Bloss's Zarah. The race was won by a heal ; and after the expenses of entries and jockey, put into the pocket of Lord Albemarle jive- golden sovereigns. Who will, after this, deny to those noblemen the credit o f b e i ng lo% l e n rs th o e f racing?s. Stakes, Idas, with Glb extra, flni c h e d two lengths in advance of three others, whom, if he had not beaten, he:ought to have been boiled. Many think he won by making a waiting race of it, but .I am. of opinion he could have won any how. The match between Collingwood and Captain Placebos was won somewhat more easily than the one on Tuesday. The latter was, as usual, the favourite. The Queen's Plate, the last on the list, was won by the Bo trtling-school Miss, from Event, Longitude, and Prairie. The ring naturally patronised the Goodwood mare, and were much surprised at seeing the. Miss winning over a course deemed 'much too long fur her. The second October Meeting takes place on Monday, and as the stables are full, there is., every probability of a good meeting. On the first day, four sweepstakes are in the list, and a post match between Lord Glasgow and the Duke of Bedford, which, I think, will be won by the latter, with Prologue;, and also a post match between Lord Exeter and Lord Chesterfield which will end, in my opinion, in favour of Lord Exeter; with his Woodpigeon, the conqueror of Idas at Ascot. Five other matches are set down, and will most likely be run, so that the appetite of the most racing gourmand will be gratified. The first is between Ides and the Liverpool colt, Bst 21b each, and will be won by the former, if there is any faith in public running. The next is between Black Cat and the Beiram filly, Rst 71b, T.Y : C., in which,l think, Mr. Clarke via give to the for .. mer. The one that follows is - a most . interesting one—it is between St. Lawrence, 9st llb, against Minotaur, Bst and the latter, I imagine, will be found the best of the two. The one that follows is fur the heavy stake of 50C 1 ., and between Alarm and Old England. As "Alarm 'has not run since his accident at Epsom, his re appearance will be looked forward to with some interest. That he can give Old England slbs and beat him I much doubt, and shall, therefore, give my preference to the Stockbridge nag. In the one that concludes the day's- sport, and which is between Captain Phcebus and Duc.an-Durras, or Duck and Green. pea. , , as he is.designated, I lean to the former. On Tuesday the sport will commence with the Cesarewitch ,Stake, which, since its establishment has completely an swered the expectations of its founder. .It has always been the moat interesting race ran at iCewmarketi may be almost compared to the Derby, from the field - that it brings out, and the, money invested upon it. Last year the winner o 1 Le Leger to the surprise of 'many of stim v oldest _Newmarket stagers, pulled thri,ugli by half a length, Lightning, the great pot of the Northern division, being beaten by him that distance. In accordance with my usual custom, I N‘ ill now take to pieces the doings of those horses whose owners have de clared themselves satisfied with the handicapper's allotment The list of acceptances is headed by Mr. Surfien's Gorham imry, 5 yrs, who is ivsigned to carry Bst 121 b, but which think he will not d', as he can hardly be said to have re covered from his recent break down, and is now ou sale in Scotland. Should he go, however; I think, like the two next animals, Discord, Bst 91b, and Truebov, Bst 91b, he will find the weight too muoh for him. 1 - lad Discord's running lately been on a par with his doings in the early part of the season at Northampton, his chance would have been a better one. t s Baa ß tn e 2iel d mtla.obinal, D hil,,e e islgr e t. . r o , w B n s e t ;. 21b n e i is i very astdoi fairly ngs , ra i not tabneeiino Stomacher,es backed -- We Duke of Richmond' matched, anti a c n h cl es as te w r i e u k: n o in w g, h h e e a should aaaijniirali shilling. lea si d ang i_s ato. t h a i l li n !neob c ku e bb , fromliteN, Generalbuifu.kitspennlanaoolctst-t, ee w d l i ;e u r ffi e c a ien 3 t .o t u o n l g ive c i l n e fr is on c t e o r f ta t i h n e f t i o eld eu ir t i such glr possessedo u oc kn, furn 7 sle loi front. lifa i speed r a race as this, down in the first mile.

If the pace is not too good and the ground very heavy, he may ofm the what sp h r e i sp r ing, s ln a t t re e pi l d ( „ struggle on and get fourth or fifth. His weight (but it is al itio:.t unnecessary to mention it, fo r knows what a dliffheerCeoni!t4hthorilml.iofrno e verybody bookmakers—oncewben be e e ,avacs they put upon him) is 7st Sib. fish 1 llb, le carried off the C6lb •tra the up, and• with ex • stakes, at least we may conclude so from his running at I w c i o e n r j e e , c withtura, Wolverhampton, where, with 7st 51b, he was not even placed for the Wolverhampton Stakes. His spring victorie are to be attributed to the ground on Which he was trained, st i e ' r, being so very favourable to horses in that season Of the year, Intrepid is still supported with son e degree of c onfidence by his former friends,. bu• I cannot hear of him as a winner. The next that comes under my eye . i s the lioness of the summer, Miss Ells, whose doings are fresh in everybody's mind; suffice it to say, that, with sst 71b; she wo n the Good wood Stakes, from afield of tvirtntvttwo, and the following day, carrying 7st, the Cup, beating eleven others, being the only three years old, with the exception of Glencoe, that ever won that valuable prize. 'For the Stewards' Cup, the day after, although of course much fatigued by her severe we rk the two days previously, she yet continued to cut a good figure. She was reserved for the Great Yorkshire Stakes at York, for which race she was beaten by four lengths by Miss Sarah. Garrie as she is, I do not thinkit possible, with Ist 71b, that she can be looked upon as a likely winner. Vol-au-Vent is entitled to notice from having won the Newmarket Handicap, with Est 41b, from 1-am-not.:Aware and a small field; but as that was in the ,Craven Meeting, and the distance a mile shorter than the one on which this, will be run, I cannot say . much in - favour of his' chance. There was a good deal of noise made about him fur the Great Yorkshire handicap for which he• was drawn. lie cut up badly too at Ascot. Of Pouissin, I shall merely observe he is a very moderate plater. Teetotaller has some running about him, for lie won the Ascot Stakes from Iliona and Ik good field, but the company : he has been running in lately has been so wretched that his success does him no very great credit. His weight, 7st Mb, will not stop him. Pantasa, I imagine, will not go. Mr. Clifton's Paintbrush, from the mariner in which she has been backed, is entitled to some notice. She is by Jereed, and distinguished her self greatly at Wolverhampton . by carrying off the Patsbull Handicap fromGeneralNott, sst; Coranna, Bat i2ib ; Queen of the Gipsies, Bst 41b; and Philip, 7kt 10114 her own weight being sst 31b; and on the following d ay, with fist. 41b, she won the Holyoake Stakes, beating Arthur, sst; Hooton, Ist 1 llb ; Lightning, 7st 91b ; Roderick, isi Mb ; Nix-my- Dolly, 7st; and Jack Sheppard, 6st 121 b. Good as these doings are, I do not imagine shecan give the weight to this, or Wte Pet. The chances of Hope, Annandale, Lady 'Mi dair, Alice, m e tal, Plantagenet, Keslieng, Longitude, Laird o'Cockpcn, Ruff, and The Cook, I look upon as quite out. The extra weight upon My Mary will stop her, and I think the winner will turn out to be Mr. Etwall's /Egis„ My rea sons for preferring her are, that she has shown' herself ca pable of getting a l o ng distance, is possessed of great ' speed, is trained on the spot, and ,is supported by a party whore judgment is rarely miAplazed. As I consider The Baron, though an Irish horse, no Foig a-ballagb, I fancy his chance of winning most remote. Boarding-school. Miss, in spite of her winning the Queen's Plate last week, will be tired long before the race is over, iudging fiom her place in the Goodwood Stakes, in which, with 6st 31b, she was nowhere, and in the Brighton Stakes, for which she was likewise beaten by Pineapple and Jenny Wren. The last-named mare I consider to have the next best chance in the race to iEgis, and I ground my b elief in her mei its from her running at Brighton, and Lichfield. 'Wee Pet's figure in the Leamington Stakes was very creditable to her, but then it mnst be borne in mind that Roderick and Rochester had been a good deal knocked about previously. Had Pergularia not been so shamefully beaten at Leicester I should have thought well of his chance. Nottingham is well in, and sure to he forward. In conclusion, I fully anticipate to see Agis or Jenny Wren the winner of this great handicap. Wee l'et, Nottingham, And Red Deer will not Le f ar from these lots. After the excitement of the above great race is over, we have the Royal Stakes of 200 sow:, 4 subs, which look ' likely to be reduced to a math between the Dukes of Bed ford and Portland, and won by the former nobleman. Next comes the second of the Two Year -old Stakes, which are wont some times to bring out a Derby favourite. I expect to see at the post Princess Alice, Free Lance, Green Pea, Mecca colt, Collingwd, Cuckoo, Ilolloway, Cambaules, Deerchase, Sting, a nd W . itsend. Of these, tit'ng's doings are immeasurably superior to any cf the rest, and if lie go.ai I do not see how he can well lose; but everything depends upon a good start in a short scramble like this, and as Princess Alice is very qinck on ber legs, I am of opinion her chance is the next best to Lord Edward Russell's colt. Col lingwood's running in the last meeting must have damaged his prospects for this race. I have heard a good deal of Holloway, who is said to be afiier, rosin noes verrons. I hope after witilessingAhe evil results of putting Alfred Day upon Witerid in the Buckenharn, that old Sam will be allowed to steer her in nil!, and then her backers may look to her being handy at the Cowl pa s, I believe, in his match with Vaudeville. In the * f•!or• matches which follow; I ... , hould take Poor Soldier in preference to Heanp, Sorella to Cataract, The Cob to Oakley (as Le has very great speed for a mile, as was displayed in Lis race fur the Hunt Cup at Ascot, and in his match with the Cure), and Sir Frances to Britannia. On Wednesday . there is only a Sweepstakes of 200 sous. between Comrade, Vaudeville, and Prolouge, and a match between Celia and Espoir set down; but the list will, no doubt, be considerably increased before the day.' The Sweep stakes look best for Vaudeville, and in the match I prefer Garrvowen. • On Thursday, in the Bretley, I think the Black Cat and Ennui will be found the best of the field. Lord Glasgow's colt, 1 imagine, will be beaten in each of hismatches,certainly in that one between him and the Cobweb colt. On Friday most of the performers in the Cleanvell will re appear when the bell is rung fur the Prendergast, but as the running in the former will materially operate in the result of this race, I 'shall merely observe that as far as my judgment goes, Lord George's er Lord Chesterfield's . is most likely to own the winner c f the Prendergast. Five matches tali the COffee-Rooth Stakes concludes the week's sport. In the first, between Mis; Elis and Ciniv:lli, I like the cornier Lest. Iu the second, between Prolouge and i)eodara, I recemmend my friends to stand on the former. The third, between My Mary and I T :andel:lle, should Le won by the former. Ido net think in the next, which is between Comrr.de and The Slane colt, that the latter has a chance; nine in the last, between old Oakley and Hartshoin, would I stand on the former.

(Before Mr. Commissioner SHEPHERD.) HODGSON V. COOKE. In this case the party was summoned to show cause why he did not pay a judgment debt and costs. Mr. Lntry - D took an objection to the summons on the ground that, according to the particulars of the plaintiff's demand, , the name, address, and place of busines., was not fully set out. -.T4p, name was merely in initials, and no ad dress added. 'Mr. 'Lloyd contended that the 20th Rule of Court had not - been complied with ; and, inasmuch as the particulars cf demand were irregular, the summons must also be irregular. Mr. BUCHANAN, for the plaintiff, admitted the rule, but the Act of Parliament was altogether silent upon the subject. Mr. Commissioner SHEPHERD said the Court must be bound by the rules ; he therefore held the objection to be fatal, and dismissed the petition. Mr. LLOYD then applied for coats, but the Court declined to grant them. IN RE FOSTER. William Emerson Foster, of Enfield-wash, shopkeeper, ap plied for his interim order, and was supported by Mr. T. B. Hughes. Mr. BUCHANAN opposed, on the ground that he had re ceived a large sum of money. The insolvent, in examination, admitted that he had re ceived 30C1. under his sister's will, Lbout two years ago, and that, at the present time, he was post, }aster at .Enfield. Mr. BUCHANAN trusted the Court would direct the insol vent to put aside a small sum annually in gradual payment of his debts. The insolvent declared he was unable to pay any sum. The Court eventually granted the interim order, and named a day fOr the final order. MARLBORO UGH-STREET. (THIS DAY.) - . An elderly foreigner, said to be a Pole, who wss de scribed in the police charge-sheet as Count Yaxe Dembicke, residing at No. 16, Prince's-street, Leicester-square, was chirged with disorderly conduct in the Bavarian-chapel, in Warwick-street, Regent-street, and disturbing the congrega tion. The. defendant was dressed in a sort of foreign military style, and wore on his breast several medals and crosses. . Barnibus Flask, police-constable, 28 C, stated that about half-past nine o'clock, yesterday morning, he was sent for to the .Bavarian-chapel, and took the prisoner into custody, at the direction of the Rev D. Maguire, the chaplain, on the charge tf having placed himself on the steps of the altar, where none of the congregation are allowed r and refusing to retire when required, causing an altercation, the per formance of divine service was interrupted, and the congre gation greatly disturbed. Mr. HARDWICK inquired if the Rev. Mr. Maguire was in attendance The constable replied in the negative. Mr. llARnwicK asked the defendant why he disturbed the congregation ? A gentleman stood forward, and said the defendant could rot speak English. Ile was a Roman Catholic, and his con duct arose rather from religious zeal. It was not the inten tion of the Rev. Mr. Maguire or the authorities of the chapel to appear against him. Mr. :HARDwroc said in that case the prisoner might be discharged, and he was accordingly liberated. DEATH or SIR CHARLES ROWLEY, BART.-- Ponrsmounr, OCT. 12.—We regret to announce the death ef Admiral of the White Sir Charles Rowley, Bart.. G.C. li. G.C.11., late Commander-in-Chief at this port. The de ceased had been suffering for many years from illness, which confined him to his residence during the greater portion of the time he presided over this port: as Commander 7 M-Chief. A man more deeply respected in the service, or one' More distinguished in it, does not remain upon the list. .He was 56 years a commissioned officer, having been made a Lieu tenant in October, 1789; Captain, the Ist of August, 1795; Rear-Admiral, the 4th. of June, 1814; Vice-AdMiral, the 27th of May, 1825 ; Admiral, the 23d of November ' • 1.841. The gallant deceased was a most indefatigable cruiser during the war. He commanded the Eagle, and formed part of the squadron under Sir Sidney Smith in his active operations -on the coast of Italy, including the capture of Capri, defence of Gaieta, (where he was wounded) &c., in 1806, the Wal cheren expedition in 1809, and siege of Cadiz in 1810. He distinguished himself in the Adriatic at the. capture of Fiume, Trieste, and all the principal fortresses and islands in that sea, in 1812 and 1813. Since thewar he commanded the Bulwark, of 74 guns,- and was Commander-in-Chief on the Jamaica station in 1820. He was appointed to the chief command at this port on the S6th of December, 1842, but from increasing debility was compelled to re-ign his pest in September last, upwards of thrce months before his period of service would have expired. He died on Friday at Brigh ton, where he had latterly removed for change of air. Lieu tenant-Colonel Rowley, late of the Coldstream Guards, is the eldest son of the deceased ; Captain R. F. Rowley, of the St. Vincent, 120. flag-ship of the experimental squadron,) is the second san ; and Commander Rowley, of the Satelite, 18, (in the River Plate,) third son of the gallant deceasal Colonel Rowley succeeds to the baronetcy. WINDSOR ELECTION. Colonel Reid, of the 2d Life Guards, has issued an address to the electors, in which he states— " I am Warmly and sincerely attached to our Protestant Church, and would firmly resist any measures that might appear to me calculated by possibility to weaken or injure that sacred and invaluable Establishment. " The care of the poor, the aged, and the helpless must ever be an object of deep interest to me ; and I should re joice in any practicable improvement of the Poor-law Amendment Act." _ _ ..... Mr. Walter, of Bearwood, has also come forward, the following notice having been posted in Windsor on Satur day : "TO THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF NEW WINDSOR.

"AN ELECTOR. " Windsor, Oct. 11, 1845." There will be no canvassing, it appears, until after the funeral of Mr. Ramsbottom, which takes place on Wednes day next. The election cannot take place until after the Ist of November. DEATH OF MR. JACKSON, THE CELEBATED PUGILIST. This celebrated character, whose famo as the • greatest of Britist gladiators will render him immortal, died in his 77th year on Tuesday last, at his residence, No. 4, Lower Gros- - venor-s*.reet West. An attack of paralysis was • the imme diate_cause of death. Mr. Jackson was horn in London, and was the son of the eminent builder by whom the arch was thrown over the old Fleet-ditch. The symmetry and muscular development of ' Mr. Jackson were perfect. His height - was 5 ft. 11 inches, and his weight 14 stone. At the age of 19 he became a fre quenter of the sparring-schools. On the 9th of June, 1798, -he fought his first public battle with Fustent, a Birmingham hero, and gallantly defeated 'him in the presence of • George IV., then Prince of Wales, who ever after was Jackson's patron. Mr. Jackson's third and last battle was with the redoubtable Mendoza, whom he beat in 10i minutes, in the presence and to the gratification of the .Duke of Hamilton and a vast number of noblemen and gentlemen. Indepen dent of his pugilistic superiority, Mr. Jackson was distin guished for his extraordinary powers as a runner for a short distance; and, as a leaper, no man of his day was equal to him at a standing jump. His muscular strength was equal to his body activity, and in the'presence of Mr. Harvey Coombe, - a never-ahrinking'-advocate of the national sports of his countrymen, he lifted ten hundred weight and a quarter, and with 841 b. weight on his little finger wrote his own name! Mr. Jackson, coon after defeating Mendoza, established a school at No. 13, Bond-street, not only for giving lessons to his numerous pupils, but for the introduction of such men as had either distingui,hed themselves in combat, or were desirous of seeking fame in the pugilistic arena. He received the encouragement of the Dukes of York and Clarence (Wil liam IV.), the Duke of Queensbury, Earls Albemarle and Sefton, Marquis of Worcester (present Duke of Beaufort), Marquis of Tweeddale, Lords Byron, Craven, Somerville, Barrymorc, File, Sir W. W. Wynne, Colonel Berkeley (now • Earl Fitzhardinge), Mr. Harvey Coombe, &c. After the coro nation of George IV., at which Mr. Jackson, and seventeen of the most distinguished prize-fighters of the day were em ployed, dressed as pages, to guard the entrance of Westmin ster-hall and Abbey, which they did most effectually, he re . tired from public W, remaining still, however, the frequent companion of noblemen and gentlemen who felt desirous of maintaining the old national sport of boxing, and who, through him, distributed those rewards which the conduct of the exhibitants deserved. As a private associate, and " boon companion," his company was courted by men of the highest distinction. Mr. Jackson was a man of great bene volence, proved by incessant charitable acts. In manner he was unassuming, and in language and demeanor a gentle man. Ile lived and died in easy circumstances, and his pro pel ty will be inherited by his niece, his constant and affec tionate attendant. EXPERIMENTAL SQUADRON. PLYMOUTH, Ocr. 10.—Wind breezy from 'IV.W., veering towards S.W.—The experimental squadron, under command of Reai -Admiral Sir Samuel Pym, red at the mizen, enterea Plymouth Sound on Friday night, and dropped anchor in the following order :—The Rodney, 92, Capti in Collier, off the eastern arm of the breakwater, towards Staddon-heights the flag-ship, the St. Vincent, 120, Captain Rowley, next; then the Albion, 92, Captain N. Lockver ; the Canopus, 84, Captain 3loresby • the Queen, 110, Captain Sir Baldwin Walker; the Trafalgar, 120, Captain Martin; the Vanguard 80, Captain Willis • and the brig Daring. 12, Commander Matson, which two last vessels lay off the western arm oft'', breakwater, towards Mount Edgeumbe. The Heroine, 10- gun brig, is also in the Sound. During the second trip, which commenced Sunday, the 28th ult., the fleet have not experienced arty •weather suffi ciently severe to test their sailing qualities under such cir cums:ances. The same conflicting opinions as to their several qualities are still entertained by officers from different ships; but the following remarks are from a good practical and dis interested authority. The Queen, 110, is the best three • decked ship under almost any circumstances, the only ex ception being in very heavy weather, when she is beaten by' the Trafalgar, 120. The Queen is always ahead when going free, and it is stated that the highest authority in the fleet speaks of her in the best terms. The • Tra falgar, 120, is much improved since last in harbour; in very heavy weather she takes the lead, and during the last trip has thus been twice at the head of the fleet. The Rodney, 92, is superior to any of the two-deckers, and occasionally beats the whole squadron, except the Queen when going free. She is a good foul-weather ship. The Albion, 92, which had 50 tons of ballast taken out of her when in Plymouth Sound about a fortnight since, has thereby damaged her sailing qualities, and has thus lost the relative position she previously held in the fleet. The Canopus, 84, still holds her place, and the Vanguard , 80, ha s this trip none better than in the former. The Daring brig, 12, is, from her small tonnage and canvas, always left behind, except when on a wind under stormy stay-sails, in which case she drifts less, and is consequently ahead, followed by the Rodney, Queen, Albion, and the rest. A steam-tug, with letters, has been waiting in Plymouth Sound for the last two days, in expectation of the arrival of the Superb, 80, Captain Corry, from Portsmouth. It ii, stated that Admiral I'ym expected the Superb off the Lizard on Friday morning, and in consequence of her non• arrival, hoisted a signal to prepare fur anchoring, and eventual') bore up for Plymouth Sound. On the arrival of the fleet at Plymouth it was currently reported there, that in consequence of the breechings of some of the Albion's lower deck guns having given way, that ship had lost several hands, the number of whom was variously stated at between 8 and 50. The only occasien, however, for hoisting the church pendant, on account of the death of a seaman, occurred about ten days' since during a heavy squall, when in shifting top sails one of the men fell from the yard and was drowned. The storm was too severe to risk the lives of a boat's crew. The life buoy was thrown overboard, and, in consequence of the severity of the weather, not reco vered. One man died on board the Canopus. He cut his throat on the Ist of October, and survived until Friday, the 10th, at three in the afternoon. He was bu:ied off Whit sand Bay on the evening of the same day. It is expected that the fleet will go to sea again about Tuesday, the 14th inst. (to-morrow). The late Attorne'yGeneral for Jamaica, William Ross, Esq., who died at Bath on the 16th ult., has left no issue, and his estate at Lambridge, which by his will was left, on the death of his wile, to his nephew, William Hunter Ross, who has since died, will on the decease of the testator's wife pass to his grandniece, Euphemia Ross. The testator has left his wife also an annuity of 7001., and an nuities to his sisters and other relatives, and small legacies to all his servants.

The frequent complaints that are made of the defective arrangements on this line with respect to horses, the general wat.t of punctuality in starting from and arriving at the different stations, render a change of management in dispensable.

Thirty or forty German, Italian, and French artists have been engaged in embellishing the principal apartments in the ancient and noble mansion of Hatfield.—Herybrd Mercury. 6 THE LATE AFFRAY AT HOUNSLOW BARRACKS.— understand that Quartermaster Thomas Tarlton, who was stabbed on Sunday week at Hounslow Barracks by Lieutenant Martin Francis Kerwan, continues gradually to recover, and that there is every reason to believe he will be able to attend the next examination before the magistrates at Bretitford. Lieutenant Kerwan' is still under arrest at llounslOw IlarraCks, and will continue so until he is again examin before the magistrates. • ACCDnIcT ON THE SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY.— AnAccident occurred on the above line on Thursday night, neatthe Paddock station, between Maidstone and Tunbridge. It appears that about eight o'clock in the evening the usual signal was given on the train approaching within a short dis tance of the above station. The signal, however, uas an swered by the exhibition of the wrong lights, and the con sequence was, that the train came in violent collision with . one of the engines which was lying upon the same rail. The crash was heard by the passengers, and, as may be imagined, created the utmost alarm among them. It fortunately, how ever, turned out that the only damage sustained was the pattial destruction of the engine. ERUPTION OF MOUNT HECLA.—The Hamburgh Borsen Halle, of the 7th inst.., ccntains the following cm munication from Copenhagen, under date of Oct. 4 :—" The English journals have already stated that the largest of the Orkney isles was, during a violent storm from the north west on the night of the 2d ult., covered with fine ashes, re sembling ground pumice-stone ; and that it was thought they had been driven by the wind from Mount Hecla, in Iceland, as similar appearances had Leen observed during several years. We now learn that on the same or the follow ing night the crew of a vessel, bound to this port from Rei kiavik, observed, whilst about eighteen English miles from land, volcanic flames en the southern coast of Iceland. On September 3, two vessels near the Fawe Isles were also covered with ashes. According to letters which have been received here an earthquake occurred on the previous day in the west, north, and east portions of Iceland. More re cent intelligence has arrived from the southern part, and itlippears that the eruption was a more violent cne than any that had taken place there during the last sixty years. The latest accounts are of Sept. 13. They confirm the intel ligence (f a volcanic eruption in the southern part of the island on Sept. 2, the first since the memorable one which occurred nineteen years ago. The extent of the fall of :and and ashes is not yet known, but it is ascertained tint se riously t tle populous districts adjacent to the volcano have not b injured, except that the grass plots near the mountains were destroyed." Mrs. Fitzwilliam has just concluded a highly suc cessful engagement at the new theatre at Glasgow. It was her first visit there; the local press pronounce her to be one of the greatest favou rites that ever appeared in that city. Her benefit on Friday evening was under the patronage of the Lord Provost. She re-appears this evening at the Adelphi Theatre in " The Green Bushes." 22% 8 % P - Pi - pl 2 3 I 1513 P - I VA 219 32% 163 ,1% i 2% SING PRICES OF SHARES P TOWNS IN ENGLAND , i.ND IRELAND. 1% 187 s 'tlJ - • 107,41, 20s pi 1 Is3l 7736 d 734 773 7 3 238% 46s p 21s p! 12% 25,4 19256,1 2134 3 ,1 86 1 ) 56s p 216 40% 4%p! 5 sg ~49y 34 4M "'p 12356 60s6d 12356 3% 29% 61iP SX G - % p 1 3%1) 47: 2 p! sham. 4 - 41 r:Enoutli (baw's line) - , j p.--Ditto alea(l'.9)' 1 p.-ISetrm and Central Cornwall. 5 / 4 i).—Eic.ter mkt CrE diton, t - intstermeounties, t!.•')—Bristo!, .Yev.-, 12. • SHEFFIELD, OCT. 11.

The great thing with junction lines now is to embrace a Nvidu area, and achieve the object at the least expense poasibls• To do this there must be good surveying, good engineering, and good judgment, as to which way the railway is to throw out hs arms, so as, in fact, to embrace the whole district. We write at the moment. from recollection, both of the pros pectus and the locality, but of this we are sure--that through such a country two Siamese lines, if we may use the phrase, . the Brighton and Tunbridge Wells 22 mileS,' and the Hast- , ings and Tunbridge Wells 26 miles—must succeed and pay.: As have said before, this comes of good surveying an t i good engineering. —(F r om the London lercantileJournal, of October 7, 1845.) THE TUNBRIDGE WELLS, BRIGHTON, AND nAST neas JUNCTION RAILWAY.—This is the title of a new ptojeet for snaking a direct railway front Tunbridge Wells to lifigh- ton on the one hand, and to HaAiugs en thii ether, Oita giving to the inhabitants of the Litter town, in addition to, the rapid means of exchanging courtesies with its fashionable rivals, the great advantage of the most direct line of coin - mutt:cation with the metropolis by a jtn:ction with the pro posed direct line from Louth nto Tunbridge Wells. Of the many Lw e schemes at present befor e th e public, this to be peculiarly worthy of favourable consideration, inasmuch as it is not only in accordance with the direct principle, hut ac the Same tine that it adopts this most rational principle of great public highways, carries it out conaistently with sup - plying, throughout the en ti re di s t r i ct traversed by th e pro jected lines, accommodation to one of the richest and 'nest populous aoitions of the country. The line from Tunbridge Wells to Hastingi will be about twenty-six miles in length, and in its course will touch the towns of Frain, Wa.dhurst, lannberhurst, Etchingham, - Hurst Green, Robertsbridge, Whatlingten, and Battle, its proposed terminus 'Ring at the western extremily of Hastings. It is also proposed, we understand, to extend the advantages of this line to the Mot bitants of Winchelsea and Rye, by a branch from a point tear Battle. By 'a glance at a map it cannot fail to be Pe rceiNact that, by formation of this line, at a point taking up the - course of the direct line about to be made from London to Tunbridge Wells, there will be completed a continuous rail way to nesting:, which, when its proposed harbors and docks are constructed, must become the most ceevenicut packet station in the Channel, on the male to Paris Dieppe and Rouen. This C om p an y' s B r i g h t , n line will, ire observe, take a direct course, passi ng Mayfield, the; ', ticktiel:l, Little llorsted, to Lewes, where it will unite with the lire fr in that town to Brighton —its length being about twenty-two miles. That the whole project of the company is a good one there can be no crestion.—Radway Pakr. LONDON AND DUBLIN APPROXIMATION RAILWAY.—Tim prospectus of this Company will be found in our advertising columns of this day, and we can scarcely- do our railroad readers a greater service than to point out the principal features which distinguish this line from others which daily appear in the public journals. The importance of a direjt line of communication from London to Holyhead, has l o n, . occupied the public attention ; the benefits that would 1)7: derived from such a ready mode of comm un i cat i on it is almost needless to dwell 'upon, and the undertaking front this circumstance alone has excited a -vet') general interest throughout the country. The difficulties of o,e„„mio, the natural obstacles of a mountainous country, such a s r re sented by the northern portion of the Principality, hitherto appeared of no ordinary character, and have been - deemed by many well-informed and practical persons aimos: insuperable. The achievements of science, however, tidel by the industry of man, have rendered this bold and enter prising project not only feasible, but comparatively easy to b 3 accomplished ; and we rejoice to find that the schema for attaining this very desirable object is supported by one of the most influential committees we have ever seen appended to a prospectus. Mr. Rastrick is the engineer, a gentleman of undoubted talent and established reputation, and we have the greatest confidence in his selection of thi line, and the ability with which it will be carried out. It is to be observed that this is wholly independent of any othce line, and as it is designed for public convenience, it is entitled to public support. The saving of the distance 'between the two capitals of England and Ireland will be between sixty and seventy miles, and, in point of time, at least of two miles. The delays upon the route will be less frequent Clout - upon the existing lines, which, from their crowded state, often occasion interruptions to travellers from necessary stoppages.: Accidents, in all likelihood, will be fewer front the same ,cause, and there is little doubt that all the pas senger traffic to and from Ireland will be secured to the Com pany. There must also be a very large rortion of mei - chandise and stock constantly passing along the line. his, in addition to the former, must prove a source of gnat prof t to the shareholders. The facilities afford to the inerztant and trader, in the transit of goods of every description, will secure to this Company an immense revenue from their car riage alone.

THE IRON TRADE.—DUDLEY, SATURDAY.--T he last of the quarterly meetings of ironmasters of this district was held in Dudley to-day, when the prices determined to.= at Birmingham on Thursday were fully confirmed. Some'of the masters were inclined to make a further advance, but the more prudent resolved to abide. by the present rate of prices. It. appeared to be a general opinion that if a further advance took place the miners and ironmen would require a co: re. spondirg advance of wages, and, taking all matters into c , al.- sideration, that such a ptoceeding would be decidedly in jurious to the home trade dependent upon the iron menula.c.. ture. The folloWing may be quoted as the prices now fixed: Bars, 101.; sheets, l 11. 10.5., hoops 101. 10s., at the wo:ks, being 40s. higher than those established at the last quar ter day, and 20s. higher than those fixed at Wolvcrhuiap.. ton a fortnight ago. SCIENTIFIC EXPEDITION.—Mr. Hartwey, vt+o Ku for some years been employed by the Horticultural Society in making collections Tor their gardens, at Mexico and Gua temala, has just been tent cut to California, which was ex plored for the same purpose some years since by the late . Mr. g Douglas. The fate of this last traveller was very tracal, for on his return home by way of Sandwich there fell into a pit dug lot catching wild bulls, in iv: ich there happened to be one, when the infuriated animal g o r ed him to death. 5 9% I 87: GJ I, and Top- MEI IMO r Eli 3 11 ' awl it re l.
