DUTCH MAIL. THE STATES-GENERAL. THE HAGUE, Nov. 13.—The Second Chamber of the States. General met this morning at eleven o'clock, and resumed the debates on the resolution to be taken in consequence of the refusal of the First Chamber to agree to the proposed address in answer to the King's speech. Our readers know that in the evening sitting, the day before yesterday, the votes on this question were equally divided. This morning, after five Members had spoken, the Chamber again pro ceeded to vote, and the proposal, slightly modified, in conformity with an amendment moved by Mr. Vervey Mejar, was adopted by a majority of 28 to 26, Mr. Van Naamen, who had before voted against, having now voted for it; consequently, the address will be again sent to the First Chamber, as such as it was originally drawn up, excepting the 11th section, which is now expressed in the following lines : " We expect that the country will reap the fruits of the period of tranquility and peace, the blessing of which Providence now bestows on us." " The Second Chamber expressed a wish that during this period the revisal and improvement of our constitutional institution may be taken up at a season able opportunity. " The first Chamber, on the contrary, without en tering on the examination of the question whether it Is desirable to proceed to such revisal and improve ment, found, in Act 227 of the fundamental law, an obstacle, which hinders it from agreeing to the ex pression of the wish of the Second Chamber." The Chamber then passed, by a majority of 47 to 7, the project of law relative to the repayment of the Three-and-a-Half per Cent. bonds of the late Syndi cate for 1844. The next subject in the order of the day was the debate on the project of law relative to the re-payment of the debt of the Government to the Commercial Company. Two Members having asked for some explanation, the Minister of Finance replied, that not only had the resources which had been calculated upon for the:suc (less of the voluntary loan been obtained, but that they had exceeded what was expected, as will appear from a project of law which will shortly be pre sented to the Chamber relative to the completion of the ways and means for 1844. On promulgating the law of the 6th of March, the receipt of forty-five millions was calculated upon, and up to this time the amount of the expenditure is only twenty-one and a half millions, consequently , the repayment of twenty-two millions to the Com mercial Company may be easily effected • and the Government (added th e Mi n i ster ) intends that repay ment shall take place before the end of this year. The project of law was then agreed to by 51 to 2. THE HAGUE, Nov. 14.—The First Chamber of the States-General is convoked for the 22d of this month. His Majesty's frigate the Jason, and the brig S ne llh u d , under the command o f Prince Henry, have arrived in the Texel from the Mediterranean.

COURT CIRCULAR. LORD HARBOROUGH AND THE no l t l i a ce rb t o o r t o h u e gh a MIDL AND RAILWAY COMPANY. (From the L e i ces t er Ch ron i c l e. ) Lord railway h his m s t e p w a n a y r d, that isl r t . h eyd Fabling, w oui had givennot permit any one to enter the park and lands to survey. The railwayists mustered seven strong on Wednesday, and were about to approach the forbidden ground by the Oakham Canal towing -path. Lord Harborough's party, in number nine, met the whole of the enemy on the towing-path, and took them prisoners. They were con veyed, with their flag-staffs, chain, and spirit level, towards Cold Overton Hall, the residence of T. F. Tur ner, Esq., a magistrate, but two of the head men were permitted to go to Oakham for the professional assist ance of Mr. Hough, who proceeded in a chaise to the magistrate's dwelling ; but, unfortunately, Mr. Turner was from home, and on the prisoners asking what was to be done with them, - Dawson, the keeper, said it wou ld be better for all prinks to separate for the Eight, which they accordingly did, leaving his Lordship's party in pos session of the spirit level. Another skirmish took place on Thursday. The scene of action was Saxby-bridge, adjoining his Lord ship's park. After the defeat of the surveyors on the previous day, it was generally understood that another attempt on a larger scale was to be made on the fol lowing morning. Consequently, by nine o'clock between thirty and forty of his Lordship's servants assembled at the spot above-named, to prevent the surveyors of the company taking their levels, &c., on the towing-path of the Oakham Canal, and along Stapleford Park. Very soon parties of gentlemen in the employ of the company arrived in chaises, &c., from Melton and Oakham, heading a number of reckless-looking ra gamuffins, carrying flag-staffs, &c., and looking in the distance very like a regiment of soldiers coming to take the place by storm. A lengthened parley took place on the bridge, between his Lordship's steward and solicitor, the clerk and treasurer of the Oakham Canal Company, and the solicitors and surveyors of the Railway Com pany, as to the mode of proceeding to be adopted. Mean time, Lord Harborough's men made preparations for a determined stand on the towing-path on each side of the bridge, by fencing the paths with trays, &c., close to the water's edge. An attempt was then made by the sur veyors to force their way through the p ar ty stat i oned on the Oakham side of the bridge, but th e b arr i er was too and Stamford whi c h ot h er this, bfioretsoo some be e m fe b u r nr o tkfhreeonrm, delayaon d k t t h it a e o y had to be a t a retreat. After mo k place,tamford were add e d to the railway regiment, and a fresh reinforcement joined his Lordship's standard. Four or five of the county police now also came up and stated it to be their inten tion, if possible, to prevent a breach of the peace, and that they should arrest the first person who committed an assault. Both parties were then desired to lay aside their weapons, consisting of " stout shillelaghs," &c., and ordered not to strike any blows, but simply to try their opposite strength by pushing. A " grand stand" was then made by Lord Harborough's party below the bridge, and nearest Melton, who stood " wedged together," and forming a living and very formidable looking barrier. The surveyors next placed rows of their men with their backs to the faces of the Earl's party, and set others in an opposite position to force the way. An almost indescribable scene now took place. The railwayists exerted their utmost strength, but so firm did his Lordship's party retain their ground, that more than one were actually forced up " high in the air" between and rolling over the heads of the contend ing parties. Others were forced through the hedge, tumbling over each other, and nearly filling the ditch beneath, amidst the shouts of the " leaders" and the laughter of the numerous spectators. Great confusion now ensued, the two parties mixing together, and in the tumult and dirt becoming almost undistinguishable by each other. In the midst of this confusion the surveyors succeeded in getting the chain on the forbidden ground. Lord Harborough's men then took forcible possession of the chain, which, in the scuffle to recover it, was broken in one or two places. A fine chase was then had for about a quarter of a mile down the towing-path, afford ing to the numerous spectators on the bridge almost as amusing and exciting a pleasure as a " run after rey nerd."' Another barrier was then about to be formed, when a truce was shouted by the railwayists, and it was finally agreed that each party should withdraw their forces, and that the matter should be judicially brought before tho magistrates by issuing a summons for assault against one or two of the men of each party, which, it is understood, will be heard at the petty sessions in Melton on Tuesday next. The clerk and treasurer of the Oak ham Canal Company were present during the whole time of the skirmish, sanctioning Hord Harborough's proceedings, they having some time previously given his Lordship an exclusive right to the towing-path. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) Late on Friday night Mr. Fabling, the steward, heard a rumour that the railway party intended to make another attempt on the following morning. As early as four o'clock on Saturday morning arrangements were making by all parties to muster their forces, and prepare for attack and defence. The railwayists obtained large bodies of stout men from Stamford, the Peterborough, and the Midland Railways, part having been during the night in the public-houses in Oakham, others at Melton and the distant villages. The attackers had furnished themselves with staves, in addition to the staffs with iron points at one end, an d a formidable bill-hook used by the surveyors, Messrs. Cope, Colthurst, Parker, and others, in their busine ss . T he steward and solicitor had pro cured waggons a n d strong hurdles as barricades, and a fire-engine to pump on the enemy at the point expected to be first attacked. The following letter was served upon one of the clerks of Messrs. Borridge and Macaulay, at the Crown Inn : " Oakham, Saturday morning, quarter-past six o'clock. " Lord Harborough, the Oakham Canal Company, and the Midland Railway Company " Dear Sirs—l was very sorry . to receive information early this morning of your intention of again attempting by force to go along the towing-path, and Lord Har borough and Mr. Fabling's land, contrary to the provi sions made by you and your agents on Thursday last. You then agreed that all hostilities should cease till we had been before the magistrates. I beg to give you notice, although I much dislike physical force, that we are fully prepared for you. We have barricaded the towing-path, and have in readiness a few cannon from his Lordship's yacht. If you force us to use them, as a last resort, the blood be upon your heads. " I am, dear Sirs, yours faithfully, " WILLIAM LATHAM." At seven o'clock, an attempt was made by a party of about ten men, on that part of the canal towing-path, adjoining the park, nearest Melton, but this small party could make no impression. At the same time (seven o'clock), a party of nearly one hundred men climbed over the park paling on the front nearest Oalsham, headed by Mr. Morrison, solicitor, Mr. Cope, Messrs. Cope, Rooper, Colthurst, and other surveyors, and com menced measuring with three or four chains, the party being so formidable, and his Lordship's retainers having been dispersed at several points in the park, containing 800 acres of land. The force at the part where the breach was made was too small to resist them, and were mere spectators. By the time the surveyors had reacheti opposite to his Lordship's beautiful cottage where he resides, Mr. Fab ling, on a pony, came up, bringing with him a few of his troops. Mr. Cope told him that, if he wished not to be hurt, he had better retire, and on his refusing to do so the railway men were ordered to remove him. Mr. Fabling ordered the chains to be taken up ; his situa tion at that moment was a perilous one, but his Lord ship's tenants and servants rallied round him for his protection, began lo feel confidence in their leader and their own strength, and the fight became general. The noise was so great that it was heard in the village two miles off. The spikes of the railway party were thrust into the sides of the defenders of the park ; and, after a battle of about five minutes, and many broken heads, wounded faces and sides, the lower grade of the intruders gave way. At this moment Lord Harborough, accompanied by Lady Harborough, ap peared, but being so weak from a very severe illness, was not able to get near to the scene of action. The noise of the affray having brought together more parties of his Lordship's men, it was evident the railwayists must beat a retreat, their staffs and chains having been broken into many pieces. Expresses were sent to the magistrates and police early in the morning, informing them of the contem plated attack, but some of them being from home, and the affray taking place so very early, they were not able to reach the spot in time. Threats were used of fetching more men by the railwayists, but as the first party be came dispersed, and the strength of his Lordship increased every minute from the villages of Freeby, Saxby, Wymondham, Whissondine, Teigh, and other places, the day closed leaving his Lordship in undisturbed posses sion of his park. We are informed that it is essentially necessary that the survey and levels of Stapleford Lordship, through the park, should be taken, so that the plan can be depo sited by the 30th of this month ; and this accounts for the determination of the solicitors and surveyors. Warrants for the apprehension of several of the rioters have been granted by the Rev. G. E. Gillet, and it will be ascertained whether a powerful railway company's agents can thus act with impunity. WINDSOR, SUNDAY.—Yesterday the Queen and Prince Albert took their accustomed early walk in the morning. Her Majesty and his Royal Highness again promenaded in the pleasure -grounds in the afternoon, returning to the Castle in a pony carriage. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales and the Princess Royal were taken out on ponies, and the Princess Alice was taken a walk yesterday morning. About noon his Royal Highness Prince Alfred went out for an airing. In the afternoon the Royal Family were again taken for walking and equestrian exercise. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent visited the Queen and the Prince at the Castle in the afternoon. HAMBURGH and FLANDERS MAIL. STOCKHOLM, Nov. I.—For some time past, we have had numerous street robberies and burglaries. The magistrates are considering how to improve the nightly watch in the city. STOCIMOLM, Nov. 3.—Great sensation has been caused here by the declaration of insolvency presented to the Sweabourg tribunal by the well-known Baron Norden. Both the debts and assets amount to large sums. Baron Norden's debts are stated at 600,000 dollars, and the assets at 800,000. COBLENTZ, Nov. 4.—lt is difficult to form an idea of the excitement which has been caused by the letter of the Catholic priest Rouge, which several German papers have copied from the Saxon Vaterland's Blattern. The superior authorities are not without apprehension on this account, and while the cen sors see reason to allow pretty free circulation to the polemical articles directed against this letter in the Roman Catholic journals, we hear that the highest provincial authority will institute proceedings against those of our own journals which have inserted that let ter. Violent altercations have arisen on this subject in several companies ; and the Anzeiger, published here, calls on all Roman Catholics not to admit into their fa milies journals which contain such calumnies against the Romish religion. In general, particular attention seems to be now paid to the newspapers, and we learn from good authority, that on Sunday next, by order of the Bishop Arnoldi, sermons are to be preached in all the churches against the Treres Gazette (Trierscht Zeitung.) HESSE CASSEL, Nov. 4.—Some journals have hinted that Hesse Cassel would withdraw from the Zollverein, and from Hanover. There is no foundation for such a re port. Hesse Cassel is indebted for the few advantages it derives from its trade and manufactures to its acces sion to the Zollverein. It certainly seems that there is some difference between Cassel and Berlin, but they origina teountry. in It cannot u e h nie d d, do not however,directly thataffect the ou r pros perity of Hesse Cassel has greatly d ec li ne d , and that the most vigorous measures are req u i re d t o ra i se i t again. Only the town of Hanover, which ha s some manufac tures, appears to thrive, though it cannot boast of en joying any particular favour. Cassel loses much by the Elector, with his great revenues, being abroad, and the Electoral Prince and co-Regent is obliged, in some degree, to limit his household establishment. We have now given up all hope of the return of the Elector to Cassel Lord Glenlyon arrived at the Castle yesterday, on a visit to the Queen. The Right Hon. Sir James and Lady Graham also arrived in the afternoon, on a visit to her Majesty. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent and Lady Charlotte Dundas joined the royal dinner party at the Castle yesterday. The band of the Royal Horse Guards was in at tendance during dinner. Her Majesty's private band afterwards attended, and performed the remainder of the evening. This morning the Queen and Prince Albert walked out as usual.

Among the company were their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, and the Hereditary Grand Duchess of Mecklenburgh Strelitz, and Baron Knesebeck. Sir James Graham had an interview with Sir Ro bert Peel on Saturday. Sir James and Lady Graham left town in the afternoon for Windsor Castle. Sir Robert Peel left his residence in Whitehall gardens on Saturday afternoon, for Brighton.

Dispatches for the Governors of the West India Colonies, and also for the Governor of British Guiana, were sent off from the Colonial-office on Saturday evening. A MAN SUFFOCATED DT SLEEPING ON A BRICK KILN.—About eight o'clock last Saturday morning the dead body of a man named Richard Hudson, a sizer, late of Burnley, was found lying on a brick kiln belong ing to Mr. Thomas Banton, in St. George's-road. The smoke from the kiln bad been very dense all night, and it was supposed that the unfortunate man had lain down to sleep, and had died through suffocation. Mr. Banton caused the body to be removed toithe King's Arms public house, St. George's-road, where the inquest was held before Mr. Chapman, on the same day ; and it appeared from the evidence of Mrs. Ogden, of Collyhurst-bridge, that the deceased called at her house to ask for relief about half-past four o'clock on Friday afternoon ; but there was no evidence that he had been seen afterwards. It was stated by a relation of the deceased's that he was a man of very irregular habits ; that in consequence of his conduct he was not able to keep any situation. He was forty years of age, and unmarried. The jury re turned a verdict to the effect, " That the deceased was found suffocated on a brick-kiln."—Mancheater Guardian. ST. PAUL'S CATHEDRAL.--The Lord Mayor at tended Divine service yesterday afternoon at St. Paul's Cathedral. His Lordship did not come in state, nor did he wear his official robes. He took the seat appropriated to the chief magistrate of the City, and at the close of the service retired in the same private manner in which he entered. It was stated in the Cathedral that many years have elapsed since a Lord Mayor took his seat in the Cathedral except on State occasions, and when the judges attend the service, which happens twice a year. The sermon was preached by the Rev. Thomas Dale, canon residentiary of St. Paul's, and vicar of St. Bride's, Fleet-street. BANK OF ENGLAND. The Bankers' Circular, which may be considered al most as the oracle of the private banking interest, con tains, in its Number of yesterday, various remarks on the present state of the country issues under the new system, and the recent proceeding of the Bank of Eng land with regard to the charge on transmitting money to different parts of the country. After quoting the details of the plan, as published under this head on Wednesday last, the writer observes, that the disregard manifested by the Directors for the interest of those country bankers who have stipulated to issue the promissory notes of the Bank and no other, is one of the most remarkable fea tures of the proceeding. Most of the bankers have, it is said, faithfully adhered to their engagements, and have paid the Bank at the rate of 3 per cent. per annum for the use of money during a protracted period, whe❑ they could have obtained the accommodation in the money-market at little more than half the rate, and now the Bank makes use of its newly acquired power by offering premiums to the customers of their confiding agents, to bring business to the Bank of England. These words, which are merely abridged from the original article, seem to convey a charge of ingratitude against the Bank of England, and, further on, that establishment is expressly charged with " grasping at a monopoly." For all remarks of the sort the Bank of England can find a ready answer —namely, that having been deprived of their functions as managers of the cur rency, they must throw all their energy into the banking business, and, in justice to their proprietary, must adopt all measures that will increase the amount of their trans actions, and keep up the rate of their dividend. If the premium which they offer for keeping accounts with them answers the desired end, it is hard to see on what principle they are to shun adopting it. They consider themselves as exactly on the same ground as private bankers, and that all methods that would be legitimate for these may be followed by themselves without hesi tation. SALE or GAME. - When the law was passed legalising the sale of game, the public were given to un derstand (and led to believe too) that it was for their accommodation •, they have since discovered it was a grand scheme of the game preservers to make a large profit of their surplus game, and which they have do ne to some purpose, and increased their preserving system also, in order the better to fill their pockets ; whilst, by all this, the farmer has additionally suffered in destruc tion of his crops, and he, along with the rest of rate payers, had to pay dearly for the abominable gam e -l aws being, not only brought into full play, but outstretched. Who can have forgot the extreme joy of the preserving gentry when a law was passed, sixteen years ago, mak ing night poaching a transportable offence ? There are those who would rather transport a man for killing a solitary head of game than stealing a horse. The abo minable game mania and its attendant consequences must be abated. Some of these keen game gentlemen, from many of their " bagging" systems, may fairly be termed certificated poachers,—From a Correspondent, The " Circular" reports, that the country issuers are put to much inconvenience by the change of system, the license for a maximum of 8,000,0001., proving not much more than one for an average of 6,000,0001., considering the amount that the banker must keep in his till to avoid risk. Hence the same paper recommends them to adopt any " legitimate means" to supply a deficiency, espe cially in places where there is a reluctance in taking Bank of England notes on account of the alleged difficulty in detecting forgery at a distance from town. Thus a plan which, it seems, is in vogue among the bankers of the north is recommended for general adoption. These bankers, instead of drawing a bill, say at 20 days' sight, have printed letters of credit, in which they say, "On the day of —you will please to honour the draught of A.B. for and place that sum to the debit of our account." Another plan is for a banker to write " ac cepted" or " allowed" across a cheque presented for pay ment, and then to return it to the presenter, that he may use it for any local purpose as an ordinary note. All these plans of adopting a substitute for a note circula tion seem to mark a strong spirit of opposition among the banking interest to the provisions of the new law. —Times. WESTMINSTER. HOSPITAL.—ELECTION OF A DEN TIST.—On Saturday the election of a gentleman, to fill the office of dentist, took place at this Institution. Mr. Clendon and Mr. Ghames were the candidates. At two o'clock the poll closed, when it appeared that Mr. Chu.. dolt was elected by a majority of fifty-two, The employers of Mr. Archibald Anderson, com mission-agent and salesman of cattle and sheep, at New castle-on-Tyne, have presented him with a handsome old watch as a token of their gratitude and esteem. - THE INCOME-TAX.—It i 3 -11 positive truth that, though Sir Robert Peel is in receipt of two years' in come-tax, the surveyors of taxes have not yet had one farthing remuneration for their excessive labours and unpleasantness ; nay, oven the health of some have been impaired through close application, and deep anxiety. This is " too bad," and, if those officers be not ade quately compensated before Parliament meets, we trust this just ground of complaint will be brought forward. t Sir Robert and his class take care to be well paid for their work (and their " friends" unmerited pensions lavished upon them), but those who have the labour, toil, anxiety, and hazards of unjust dismissal to run, are niggardly paid. Injustice, now-a-days, stalks through the land, lout a change must take place.—From a Cor respondent. The returns of the Bank of England being now gazetted weekly, the public will require at the hands of the press no special exhibition or comparison of fluctua tions, unless, perhaps, occasionally, and at somewhat distant intervals, say intervals of a few weeks or months, the precise periods for the purpose being selected as circumstances may render expedient. To be pointing out with operose minuteness the petty variations occur ring between one week with another, and suggesting far fetched causes for the same, would be no less ridiculous than wearisome, an extract of the items themselves, as given in the Morning Post, being all that is needful for the guidance of the country, in regard to the tendency of the circulation, and of the policy of the Board of Directors. The figures presented by the return pub lished in Friday night's Gazette, and copied into the Morning Post of Saturday, show some further diminu tion in the stock of bullion in the hands of the Bank, the total, applicable to the two departments of the establish ment, having decreased to 14,025,6291. With the ex ception of this reduction in the effective means of the institution, the falling off, which is one amounting to no more, however, than about a million in the course of many months, there is nothing in the recent returns to t o —Pos which it has t appeared necessary to direct general atten tion.—Post.

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

WOLVERHADITON, SATURDAY.—An investigation is now going forward in this town, in which a lady of hitherto respectable character, together with a married sister and a young surgeon is charged as b e i ng im plicated in a case of i n f a nticide. On the 28th ult., the body of a female child was found dead in Queen -street, at the back of the house of Mr. Quinton, surgeon. It ap pears that for some time previous to the finding of the body, Mr. Hildreth, printer, residing in the town, had paid daily visits to Mr. Quinton's surgery, always in quiring very particularly for Mr: Sheriff, Mr. Quinton's assistant. Mr. Quinton interrogated his assistant as to the cause of these frequent visits, and was informed Mr. Hildreth wished him (Mr. Sheriff) to procure abortion "for a person of great respectability, secrecy being gua ranteed, and money no object" Mr. Sheriff a s k e d M r. Quinton if he wo u ld a tt en d ? but that gentleman refused to do so. Mr. Sheriff informed Mr. Quinton that the party was Miss Railton, of the Post-office ; and subse quently applied to Mr. Doubler, of the same place, to procure abortion for a party, describing her in terms similar to those he had used to Mr. Quinton, but omitting the name. Mr. Doubler also very pro perly declined to attend. Since the finding of the body at Mr. Quinton's, the suspicion at tached to Miss Railton that the child was hers, and she was eventually apprehended by Colonel Hogg, of the county constabulary. She at first denied having had a child, but since her apprehension has made disclosures seriously affecting Mrs. Hildreth (her si s t er ) an d M r. Sheriff, Mr. Quinton's assistant. From her statement it appears that on last Sunday night three weeks, at Mr. Hildreth's house, at about twelve o'clock at noon, Mr. Sheriff went and performed an operation, and she was in dreadful pain and agony from the time he had done this until she was delivered of a child. The body was taken away three or four nights afterwards, and the material question in the investigation is, whether the body found is that of the same infant. From the post mortem exa mination made by Mr. Fowke, there appears no doubt that the child found upon Mr. Quinton's premises was born alive. Mr. Sheriff, Miss Railton, and Mrs. Hil. dreth are in custody. Colonel Hogg and the police have been most indefatigable in their endeavours to further the ends of justice with regard to this mysterious affair. A coroner's inquest, under the presidency of Mr. Phillip!, one of the Coroners for Staffordshire, has been held some days, and stands adjourned until Thurs day next. In the present state of the inquiry, it is not deemed right to publish the evidence until the conclu sion. It is almost needless to add, that the subject has created the greatest sensation in Wolverhampton. ELECTION of LORD RECTOR of the UNIVERSITY of GLASGOW. (From the Glasgow Argus, Friday, Nov. 15.) The election of Lord Rector of the University of Glasgow took place this day, Professor Hill presiding, in the abs e n ce o f P r i nc i pa l Macfarlan, who was unable to attend from indisposition. The candidates were the Earl of Eglinton (Tory) and Andrew Rutherfurd, Esq., M.P., late Lord Advocate for Scotland (Liberal). The votes in the four nations, into which the University is divided, were as follow : Natio Glottiana Natio Loudoniana Natio Transforthana Natio Rothseiana. , Rutherfurd. Eglinton. • 114 ... 79 30 30* 29 ... 25 104 ... 52 277 185 Majority for Rutherfurd The Liberal candidate was thus elected by a majority of the nations, and by a gross majority of 92 votes. Last year the Liberal majority was 59. * in this nation the numbers being equal, Professor Ramsay, who presided, gave his casting vote in favour of Lord Eglinton. THE INNHOLDERS' COMPANY AND ALDERMAN GIBBS.—REFUSAL TO DRINK THE HEALTH OF THE NEW LORD MAYOR.--The annual dinner of the Inn holders' Company took place on Friday evening, at their Hall in Dow - gate-hill, and nearly 200 of the Livery be longing to the Company attended the festival. The pro ceedings exhibited up to a certain period the greatest conviviality and harmony, but when the officiatilz Chairman, Mr. Tanner (in the unavoidable absence of the Master of the Company), gave as a toast the health of the present Lord Mayor (Gibbs), the proposition was met with one of the loudest bursts of indignation that ever rang within the walls of that venerable building.. Several members of the Livery of this Company ad dressed the Chairman in opposition to this toast, and ex pressed in no measured terms the feeling of disapproba tion which they declared to be general amongst the Livery at the conduct of the Court of Aldermen, who were really the instruments in the election of' this unac countable Mayor. It was explicitly and emphatically denied that the Livery had anything to do with the elec tion of Aldermen Gibbs, but asserted that it was a gang of hired persons packed into Guildhall that had carried the show of hands in favour of Mr. Gibbs and Alder man Wood. Had a poll been demanded, the result would have been that both the latter mentioned parties would have cut a most contemptible figure in point of numbers. The Chairman declared that the toast he pro posed was complimentary to the office of Lord Mayor, and not to the man who filled it ; but the opposition was persisted in after this announcement still more furiously than before, and ultimately the Chairman was compelled to withdraw the toast, amidst the cheers of nearly the whole assembly. The asperity created by it speedily became softened down, and the remainder of the evening was spent in great hilarity. RAILWAYS IN GERMANY.—The twenty-four German railways, on which circulation is now established over an extent of about 1,660 miles, carried during last August 1,183,553 passengers, and earned 825,631 thalers. In August, 1843, at which time some of them were not opened, the number of passengers amounted to 1,063,014, and the receipts to 705,383 thalers. The German railways have carried from the Ist of January to the 31st of August, 6,718,108 persons. It is said that the order has been given in high quarters to construct a railway from Cologne to Minden, from Dortmund to Bielefeld, by Camen, Hamm-Adlen, Oelde, with a branch to Munser, and at the same time another from Cassel, by Neechares, Lippstad, Soest, Warl, Vunx, with a branch to Dortmund. By this means the railway would form a direct communication from west to east, without going out of the limits of the Zollverein.—Railway Chronicle. UNJUST ACCUSATION FOR FELONY AT YORL ASSIZES.—IIARD CASE.—At the Yorkshire Assizes last year, a person named Joseph Mason, who resided at Clifton, near York, was tried for having burgiariously entered a house at Hall Moor, and was sentenced to twenty years' transportation. From the man's previous good character and some other circumstances which were stated to Sir James Graham at the time, a strong feeling prevailed in the neighbourhood where he was known that he had not committed the crime imputed to hire, and strenuous exertions were made by Mr. Simeon Hutchinson, Captain Darnell, and other respectable individuals, to obtain a reprieve of his sentence. Their efforts, however, were unsuccessful, and the poor fellow was sent to Norfolk Island. This week, however, two men who have been committed to York Castle for feloby have confessed that they, together with two other persons now at large, committed the burglary at Hall Moor for which poor Mason has been transported. The two pri soners have also confessed that four other persons have been unjustly transported for offences which were perpe trated by the Hall Moor burglars. These extraordinary statements have been promptly communicated to the Secretary of State.—Leeds Mercury. CHARGE OF CHILD MURDER.—COMMITTAL OF THE PRISONERS.—WiIIiam Welton and Mary Charlotte Field Larkin, the parties in custody on suspicion of having caused the death of a male infant child, born of the latter prisoner, of the body of which, however, no traces have been discovered, were on Friday brought up before a very full bench of magistrates for final examination. The case excited the greatest interest, and the justice room was inconveniently crowded during the investiga tion, which lasted nearly three hours. The facts of the case have been frequently before the public. At the close of the evidence Mr. Durrant applied to the bench to hear the examination of witnesses, who he said were present, in proof of an alibi on the part of Welton on the evening of the 13th of October. The prisoner expressed his anxiety that they should be heard ; but the bench, (who had the assistance of John Disney, Esq.) declined to adopt that course, the Chairman observing that the defence of an alibi might be made in another quarter.— The prisoner declined saying anything at that time, but repeated that he wished to have the matter cleared up by his witnesses as quickly as possible.—Mr. Thompson, on the part of the female prisoner, stated that she in tended to offer no defence upon her examination.—The room was cleared of strangers, and after a consultation of about half an hour, the bench came to the decision of committing both the prisoners for trial at the next assizes. Upon application the bench consented to take bail for the appearance of Welton, fixing the reeogni zances at himself in 2001., and two sureties in 1001. each; but we believe up to the time at which the bench rose the sureties had not been submitted for the approval of the magistrates.—(Abridged f rom th e S econ d Edition of the Chelmsford Chronicle.)
