MICHAEL Lord Mayor of the City of London, &c., &c. 311 r LORD,—The recent calan.itous Fire at Quebec has destroyed (l o ne-third part of the Clty. The scene o f th e _Conflagration was ,ensly inhabited, chief* , by a labouring population of Canadian T e nch, who had crowded around the manufactories, and other Places of business, where they found employment. Their dwellings and the establishments which enabled them to earn a mainte e have be en destroyed together. In the brief space of twelve hours, Property to the amount of nearly a million has been destroyed, and 12,000 human beings left without food, a roof, clothing, or a bed to lie on. The fellow-colonists of the sufferers have exerted them • es n nobly. In the course of a wee k u p war d s o f 20,000/. was col a clothe nsne4 Quebec and Montreal, besides large suppli es of provisions oep...s. But even during that week it had been necessary to en d one-fourth of th e money subscribed to supply the daily wants s° many reduced to beggary. To rebuild the ruined quarters will leq much time as w e ll as money , an d i n a f ew mon th s a C ana di an terwill close in upon this mass of destitution.

Mr. Green is attracting the public again, By taking an atrial flight, now and. then, Two journeys last week did he make in his car. And travers'd the heavenly, regions afar. • Well, what's to be said on a silken balloon ? . Don't fear,. gentle reader, we'll show very soon ; W hile gazing on Green in his lofty iosition, We could not help calling to mind competition ; Competition we mean in a' eneral sense, Which strives to attain to a " height " most immense— we can't avoid smiling at what has been done, To rise o'er the fame of E. MOSES and SON. Co Mpetition puffed out like an " airy " Balloon, Will " sink " in the public esteem very soon, And "fall to the ground," amid laughter and joke, And end all its " lofty pretension in smoke !" ,Not so , ith the Warehouse of MOSES and SON, T his will still stand as " high " as it always has done ; Ey'ry day it is "rising" in public esteem, While its prices are !` falling " as "low" as "our" theme.

Among the 10,000 in use, they have been adopted by the official authorities of the Houses of Parliament, Woolwich Dock-yard, Somerset-house, Foreign-office, Thames Tunnel, United Service, Reform, Conservative, and other Clnb-houses, the Queen's Theatre, Chinese Exhibition, and many other large establishments. Upwards of 20,000,000 cubic feet of gas have passed through some of these meters without regula tion or repair, and which are still working to the entire satisfaction of the gas company and consumers. All gas consumers who study economy and a good light are invited to avail themselves of the advantages and comfort to be derived from the use of Defries's Dry Meter, but, to prevent the substitution of im perfect imitations, it is necessary at all times to order Defries's Dry Meter, and to observe his name on the brass badge in front of all his meters. Testimonials from the most eminent and scientific men and large consumers can be had on application (or will be furwarded by post), free of expense, at the Manufactory, 67, St. Martin's-lane, London.

BETTS'S PATENT METALLIC CAPSULES possess the following properties, and are now practically admitted to be the only security for effectually preserving the con tents of bottles, jars, pots, &c. They are applicable to these vessels, of every size and shape, from the smallest phial to the mouth of a jar or pot three inches in diaraeter They are made of a metal free from every impurity, non-corrosive in its nature, and consequently, not subject to oxidation, nor pervious to moisture. They preserve the contents of the vessels to which they are applied perfectly air-tight ; thus securing them from becoming vapid, :mouldy, or fetid. They effectually protect the Corks from the ravages of insects, and the noxious influence of the musk rat and other vermin. They supersede the use of wire, wax, bladder, &c., and the uni versally acknowledged inefficiency of tin-foil ; the capsule being made of solid metal, has not only sufficient strength of itself to secure effer vescing liquids, but is much handsomer in appearance than the above useless tinsel, besides having the advantage of being applied with much greater ease and rapidity. They have also the very important property of affording absolute security against the possibility of fraudulent substitutions. In addition to the advantages before enumerated, the use of the Capsules prevents the liquid from oozing out of the mouth of the bottle, completely removes all cause of complaints (particularly in tropical climates), against the adhesion of the wax and other coating matter, to the fingers, when the cork is extracted—staining every thing with which it comes in contact; and prevents the falling of such offensive matter into the bottle or glass, which frequently dete riorates, and even destroys, the natural properties of the liquid. Exporters desirous of availing themselves of this valuable inven tion, in giving their orders for Wines, Ales, Porter, Cider, Preserved Fruits, Vinegar, Pickles, Sauces, Chemicals, Oils, Mustard, Ink, Blacking, &c., &c., need only direct their tradesmen to cover the bottles, or other packages, with the Patent Metallic Capsule, which will not incur extra expense.

J. Barrett, Esq., London J. Hughes, Esq., 1, Grenville-street, Dublin This railway is intended to connect the midland counties and towns of Ireland with the cities and harbours of Limerick, Waterford, and Dublin ; and passing through the rich district of the Golden Vale, the most productive land in the south, embraces the traffic of the best inland towns in Ireland, amongst which may be mentioned Clonmel, Kilkenny, Carrick-on-Suir, Thurles, Callan, Killenaule, Fethard, &c. The districts traversed by this line are well known for their rich ness in all articles of export, such as Corn, Flour, Cattle, Better, Pigs, Eggs, Fowls, Ste. &c., and are not less remarkable for the con sumption of the ordinary commodities forming the import trade of Ireland. This line is intended to commence in the eastern suburbs of the town of Clonmel, and thence passing by Fethard, runs close to the Slievardagh collieries, keeping parallel with, and contiguous to the coal district for upwards of seven miles ; it passes through the town of Callan, and holding nearly a direct line, enters the city of Kil kenny on the north-west side, near the new cathedral, where a fa vourable site for aconvenient terminus presents itself. At Kilsheelan it is intended to construct a branch from the Limerick and Water ford Railway, which, sweeping round the base of Slievenaman, will unite with the main line near Feshard. The Thurles branch is in tended to leave the main trunk line at Fethard, and passing near Killenaule and through the coal-fields of Slievardagh, will form a junction with the Dublin and Cashel Railway at Thurles. Until the traffic of this latter branch becomes more fully developed, it is in tended to work it as a single line, taking land, however, and making the permanent works for a double way. The present quantity of coals and cuim raised at the Slievardagh collieries, amounts annually to over 80,000 tons, the greater portion of which is brought to the towns of Thurles, Fethard, Callen, and their vicinities; and there can be no doubt that the advantages afforded by railway transit will have the effect of Increasing the present consumption of this article to a very considerable extent throughout this large and improving Agricultural district. There arc not any engineering difficulties, and the grudients arc most favourable. The absence of tunnelling, viaducts, or other works of magnitude will enable the line to be constructed at a very moderate expense. The population of the thickly-inhabited country adjacent to, and traversed by the Railway, cannot be taken at less than a million, and the Railway Commissioners' Reports, with their passenger and traffic returns of 1836 (which may be referred to) show that the principal streams of intercourse in lhe central parts of Ireland are along the course this line of railways intended to take. The value of the exports and imports of Limerick and Waterford, according to the Commissioners'•Reports, amounted, in 1836, to up wards of four millions and a half sterling. It has been ascertained that at the present time it amounts to considerably more ; and when it is considered that the chief supply and consumption of the trade of the above-named ports depends upon the localities traversed by this Railway and its branches, no doubt can be entertained that the principal intercourse through the Midland Comities of Ireland will be carried on this line. . In its course by Killenaule the line intersects the Well-known col lieries of Slievardagh (which are now worked most prosperously by the Mining Company of Ireland), and its extension to Nenagh will connect the Middle Shannon (the improvements of which noble river are progressing rapidly) with tile Harbour of Waterford, by a nearly direct line through the most fertile and populous dis trict in the Southern and Central parts of Ireland. The branch from Callen to the Waterford and Kilkenny Railway at Kells, about three miles in length, will not only form a valuable feeder to the main trunk -line, but will also afford direct Railway communication between the central parts of the county of Kilkenny, and the south and south-west of Ireland. This projected Railway, connecting Clonmel with the city of Kil kenny, being the two principal inland towns in Ireland, secures the largest and most valuable streams of traffic in the interior of the country. It will form A valuable auxiliary to the proposed lines in the south and north of Ireland now before Parliament. The data ffirnished by the Railway Commissioners of the traffic of the localities traversed by this Railway have been carefully exa mined, and they have been ascertained to be considerably below the present traffic. Without calculating on any increase of merchandise, or other existing traffic than that arising from passengers, and after deducting 40 per cent. from the gross receipts for working expenses, on a very moderate tariff of charges, there remains a net profit of upwards of 56,0001. per annum, being more than 9 per cent. on the capital.

The provisional Committee beg to announce to the shareholders that, in consequence of strongly expressed local opinion, and with a view to secure the valuable support of the Leicester and Swanning ton Railway Company, the provisional Committee have determined on depositing plans and sections for an alternative line, to form a junction with the Leicester and Swannington Railway at Desford, about six miles from Leicester. This junction will afford an equally short communication with Leicester, and save the expense of several miles of new line, and will at the same time, by means of projected communications, branches, extensions, and improvements of the Leicester and Swan nington Railway, give direct access to Ashby and Burton-on-Trent to the North, and to the Syston and Peterborough Railway, or East, affording a direct line of communication from Cheltenham, Warwick, Leumington, and Coventry, to Melton, Peterborough, Cambridge, and Lincoln.

T HE ITALIAN and AUSTRIAN RAILWAY COMPANY. The Directors have the satisfaction to inform the Proprietors that they have succeeded in obtaining from His Royal Highness the grand Duke of Tuscany, in preference to twenty-two competitors, a grant for sixty years, of a railway from Florence to Pestoja, on terms highly advantageous to the Company. This line presents no engineering difficulty, and passes through a district densely populated, and rich in mineral and agricultural productions, and will be connected with the railway already in operation between Leghorn and Pisa, by means of the line now forming from Pisa to Florence. The capital will consist of 8,000,000 of Tuscan llvres, equal to about 265,000/. sterling, one third of which has been already subscribed for in Tuscany, and the Directors have secured the remaining two-thirds, which will be dis tributed, so soon as the necessary documents have been perfected in , Italy, to such holders of the Italian and Austrian Railway Company's shares as shall have complied with the terms of the advertisement, by which a call was made of 2/. per share, payable on the 21st July instant. Under the original prospectus the Directors were authorised to take every necessary step to obtain Government grants for the railway from Verona to Ancona, and to coalesce or make beneficial arrangements with any companies proposing to construct lines of railway in connexion with the Italian and Austrian Railway Com pany or its branches, and the deputation who proceeded to Italy having found that they could, with great advantage to the Share holders, enter upon other railway undertakings in the Italian and Austrian States, besides the line between Ancona and Verona, deter mined upon doing so, and upon giving to the Shareholders the option of joining these undertakings. The Directors, therefore, tendered for the valuable grant they have now obtained for the railway from Florence to Pestoja, and also have entered upon several other nego tiations, which, through the aid of the wealthy and influential parties with whom they are connected at Rome, Bologna, and other places in Italy, they feel confident will be brought to a successful ter mination. The benefits resulting from these negotiations will, as they arise, be rateably apportioned to those Preprietors who shall pay such calls as shall be made from time to time by the Directors for carrying out fully the objects in contemplation. By order of the Board, G. H. D. LAURENCE, Secretary. 112, Bishopsgate-street, July 3, 1845. B IDEFORD and TAVISTOCK RAILWAY. (Registered Provisionally.) The Committee of Management, taking into consideration that the Cornwall Railroad Company (South-Coast) is likely to obtain its Act this session, and that the Plymouth and Tavistock Railway Com pany (atmospheric) will be postponed until next session, and also considering the very urgent recommendations made to their de putation, which recently went into Devonshire, have to announce to the Shareholders of the Bideford and Taristock Company their in tention of making a Branch from Tavistock to Liskeard, the gradients of which have, on the examination of their engineers, proved far more favourable than had been anticipated, by which Branch the Bideford and Tavistock Company will be come part of the grand trunk line from Falmouth via Lis keard and Exeter, to London. One hour 1%111 thus be saved (taking into account the half hour in passing the Ilamoaze), as compared with the journey from Exeter to Liskeard, as at present proposed ; that is to say, from Exeter to Plymouth over the South Devon line, and from Plymouth to Liskeard over part of the Cornwall line. The Bideford and Tavistock Company also propose another branch from Tavistock to Plymouth, the course of which, with favourable gradients, has been surveyed. The carrying out of this branch will secure great additional traffic, by offering a passage from Exeter to Plymouth on a line of very superior gradients r - and only about three miles longer than that on the South Devon line. . A map - and prospectus will be published' in a few days. In the meantime applications for shares may be made to the Secretary, 30, Basinghall-street, accompanied with references. In the allotment of shares a preference will be given to the present holders of scrip in the Bideford and Tavistock Company. FRANCIS CLOWhS: Secretary.

G RE AT PROPHECY FULFILLED FOR THE YEAR 1845. The whirlwind rushed; the hailstorm poured; The earthquake shook ; the ocean roared. The.lightning flashed, and the thunder rolled, As Merlin stood, in the days of old, And thns to King Arthur prophesied, • On the things which to England would betide : " When on Britain's throne there sits a Queen, And London pav'd with wood is seen ; When the muse her temple lends to aid The sacred struggle for Free Trade, . On Ludgate's mighty hill shall rise, To fix a wond'ring nation's e) es, A firm of Brothers—SAMUEL nam'd— Who soon through Europe shall be fam'd. The Trade of the City they'll cause to increase, And shape the Saxon and British fleece In Raiment rare at such trifling cost That men in amazement will be lost ! AN ORIGINAL PLAN these Brothers will trace Which enamoured Commerce will swift embrace, And by means of which the country wide Shall clothe like nobles in their pride; Yet drain no snore from their money bags Than if they wore the coarsest rags !" So spake the Prophet, in learning skilled, And mark how his words have been fulfilled. On Ludgate-hill, number Twenty-nine, The SAMUEL, BROTHERS, rear their sign ; The flag of Economy they've unfurled — Their House is the Cheapest in the World ! Far better than others they clothe the Peer, But charge not a twentieth part so dear; The Gentleman, there, with an income low, Can make a Gentleman's proper show; The striving Tradesman on Sunday now With his well-dress'd neighbour may raise his brow ; The sighing Lover can meet his maid, And not of appearance be afraid. The Youth of Fashion, the Beau of Taste; The Man in humble station plac'd ; The Shopman—Clerk—and Liveried Page— Poets and Actors en the stage,— All—all, in short, may in a trice Be served at Manufacturer's Price ! I ! With CLOTH the best throughout the land, And WORKMANSHIP of cunning hand. The Reader will ask, by what wonderful aid The SAMUEL, BROTHERS, conduct such a trade, On a plan so extensive—a system so large, And yet at a third of the usual charge? The answer is this :—They have money at will ; High Character, Judgment, Experience, and Skill; They buy up their Cloth where 'tis wove at the loom, And pay Ready Cash ere 'tis carted for home. And thus Capital gains them, by aid of this rule, A stock of best Cloth at the Price of the Wool ! I The assortment a Conoisseur's eye would bewitch, 'Tie so strong and so fine, so varied and rich ! On each piece, in plain figures, is marked the COST PRICE PER YARD, which a customer sees in a trice. He selects what he likes, and then only need take The quantity needful the garment to make.

The Mineral Waters of Homburg take their rise at the foot of the Taunus mountains, two hundred yards above the level of the sea. To the original springs, the reputation of which is so perfectly estab lished in Germany, that there have lately been Joined fresh sources, which from the intensity of their mineralisation and the energy of their action in certain morbid cases, have elevated them to Ow first tribe among the mineral waters of Germany. The springs of Homburg are five in number. They have been analysed by the celebrated Professor Liebig. lcotwithstanding the eLfferences which exist between them, they may be considered as the same medicament diversely modified. Their mineral principles re main the same, with no other difference than their quantities and proportions. This affords to the physicians the highly valuable ad vantage of applying to each individual case the peculiar water best adapted to it, and of modifying the treatment according to the course and progress of the complaint. The internal use of these waters is of constant effica^y, above all when drunk at their source, for then the vivifying air of the moun tains, the diversion of mind by the moving 'scene, and the abstrac., tier from the cares of the world, concur in assisting the action of the medicinal beverage. The waters of Homburg are stimulant, tonic., alterative, and aperient. They are suited to all cases requiring - an amcliorttion of . . the disordered state of the stomach and other Intestines, by giving a peculiar stimulus to these organs when necessary to excite the abdo minal circulation, to assist the secretory processes, and to regularise nutrition and assimilation. Their great success has been recognised in enlargements of the liver, in affections of the spleen, in'hypo chondria, jaundice, the hemorrhoids, anti obstinate constipation. It gout and all affections produced by derangement of the digestive functions, most happy results are derived from them. During the four years which have elapsed since these springs first obtained their merited celebrity, the city of Homburgh has greatly improved. A new taWli has grown up by the side of the old, and new hotels and private h‘iuses afford to visitors all the comforts re quired by invalids, and luxuries to be found in the most favourite watering places. The forests, which surround Homburg like a rich zone, are pierced with rides and drives by which the residents at the Baths may, with ease and pleasure, visit the Feldberg, the Rock of Elizabeth, Luther's Oaks, and all the picturesque sites of the Taunus. The Directors of this grand Establishment have constructed a mag nificent Casino, which—by the beauty of its architecture, the excel lence of its distribution, and the richness of its decorations — surpasses any building hitherto erected at any point on the banks of the Rhine. It contains splendid saloons for balls and .concerts treams for the games of Trente et Quarante, and for Roulette tables ; a Cabinet for reading, in which are most of the ala rancase, twice l E ) i i t v g a l n i s h, for I s t m us o s k la i n n, g gi n i a n n g , o t a t tnod a itDutche terrace jo e rra t e i r e n l n a l ff fi s e p e o t e m ; , and a grand dining-room with a table-d'hote, served a-day, viz. at one and fire o'clock.
