This important line Of railway will commence near the Midland Counties Station at Nottingham, whence, after crossing the navi gable River Trent, the line will proceed through or near Bridgeford, Holine, E iteliffe, and the intermediate villages, Bingham, - lot tesford, Whatton, Elton, the rich and fertile Vale of Belvoir, to the town of Grantham, thence passing, through or ilea; Folkinghum aad Bourn, or one of them, to Spalding, Long Sutton,' Sutton-bridge, and King's Lynn,and there Joining the intended Lynn and East Dereham Erilway, will form the most direct line of connexion be- tween the Eastern Counties, and the great and populous manufac turing districts of Lancashire, Yorkshire, and Staffordshire, by means of the projected Grand Union Extension line to Amber Gate,"and other lines north of Nottingham ; and by means of the line to Yarmouth will also form a communication between the Eastern and Western coasts of the*Kingdom. The Southern parts of Lincolnshire, and the Ncrth Eastern parts of Cambridgeshire, will be afforded a direct facility of intercourse with some of the best markets in England. The neighbourhood of Nottingham being the most Eastern part of the Great Midland Coal Field, this Lino will afford a supply of Coals, as well as being the medium of transit of Derbyshire Lime and Stone to the Agriculturists of South Lincolnshire, at a conside rably cheaper rate than by other existing or projected Line; in short, the vast mineral wealth of the Midland District, will be ren dered available to the whole of the great agricultural country East of Nottingham. Surveys are now in progress, and the nature of the country is known to offer no serious engineering difficulties, and a great portion of the Line will be nearly a dead level. The consideration of au ex tension of the Line from Spalding or Long Sutton to Wisbeach, will also form a portion of the scheme. The Report of the Board of Trade on the Lines through Lincoln , shire, says : " The total cost attending the transmission of a quarter of wheat tom the interior of Lincolnshire, by sea, from the port of'Boston to London, including freight, insurance, lighterage, oommission, -and other charges, is stated to amount to very near 85. The charge by Railway per quarter (allowing five quarters to the ton, at the charge of 1U d. per ton, per mile, at which the estimate of the Cambridge and Lincoln Railway is taken) would not exceed 25., and the re maining charges are calculated not to exceed 2s. 6d., thus showing a benefit to the corn growers and to the public of 3s. Gd. per quarter, occasioned by the saving of the sums now paid for insurance, delay, loss in weight, depreciation of quality, lighterage, &c." " A still more important advantage to the Farmer is afforded by the opportunity given by railway communications of availing himself promptly of the most favourable market. It frequently happens tha owing to the delay and difficulty of transmission, the Farmer is come pelled to sell his wheat at the nearest provincial market at a price considerably below the average rate, and to lose the advantage of a temporary rise." " Whatever tends to equalise prices and to prevent excessive lino: tuations cannot but he considered as a benefit both to the producer and the consumer. We are satisfied that much may be done in the way by an economical and well arranged system of railway com munication." • The same remarks apply to the whole of the great mantitheturing districts of Lancashire, Yorkshire, and Staffordshire. The great quantity of land, amounting to 100,000 acres, about to be redeemed from the sea by a company, with Sir John Rennie, as Engineer ferthe promoters, and Mr. Rendel, for the Corporation of Lynn, must ultimately prove of great advantage to this under taking. And, it it is conceived, that the Graxd Union Railway must meet with the cordial co-operation of the Midland Railways, as an immense traffic will be brought along those lines en route to Birming ham, the Potteries, and the whole of the manufacturing districts of Staffordshire. The traffic upon the intended Nottingham and Mans field, Sheffield and Newark, Manchester, Sheffield, and Midland June- Von, and the Sheffield and Manchester lines, must also &five a great increase from ithisline of railwa The Cambridge and Lincoln Rail waymust also be greatly benefited. Power is intended to be reserved in the Act to allow 4 per cent. in terest upon deposits and calls, upon completion of the line. Applications for Shares may be made to Messrs.

In the meantime, the promoters:are justified In stating that the railway will be made at an average ex pense, and that the traffic will insure an ample return upon the capital required. The Subscribers will not be liable to any further call until the Act is obtained, and power will be applied for to allow interest at 4 per oeut. upon the amount paid up until the opening of the line. The Directors reserve liberty to themselves to alter the proposed route, or to extend the railway as they may think expedient. The numerous parties who have applied for Shares having done so prematurely, are requested to renew their applications in the under mentioned terms. Applications for Shares, in the form annexed, may be made to the Provisional Committee, under cover, to the several solicitors, or to Messrs.

NICHOLAS GRUT, Secretary and Actuary. BRITANNIA LIFE ASSURANCE COM PANY, 1, Princes•strect, Bank, and 448, West Strand, Lon don, March 1, 1845. Notice is hereby given, that in pursuance of a resolution passed Unanimously at two successive General Meetings of Proprietors, a MUTUAL ASSUBANCIi BRANCH of this Institution has been established on testing peculiarly advantageous to the Assured, and That such Branch is supported by the entire subscribed capital of the CoMpiwy, together with the accumulated tbnd of Premiums derived from Upwards of Six Thousand Policies, already effected in' the Pro prietary Branch. Full particulars are stated In the Prospectus, which, with every re: quiette information, may be obtained on application at the office. PETER MORRISON, Mat:raging Director. To The ritOPRIETORS of the BRITANNIA LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY. _ - ORNTLEMEN,—In calling your attention to the annexed Notice of the establishment of a Mutual Assurance Branch, I bog leave to address a few observations to you relative to the past transactions, and the probable result of the proposed extension of the operations of the Company, • That the Britannia" Company has enjoyed the decided and (I trust >< May be permitted to say) deserved approbation of the public, is clearly proved by the unprecedented fact of upwards of G,OOO policies having been issued in the short space of eight years. In order, however, to show the high degree of credit and inthiencepos sessed by the Company, it is only necessary for me to state, that two highly respectable and well-established Life Assurance .Companies have successively transferred their business to this establishment. The former of these transfers took place in the year 1840 ; the latte-r in the eourae of the past year. It is in consequence of this last-mentioned transfer, which included 4 large number of Policies effected on the mutual assurance plan, and also in consequence of the numerous applications for Asseranees 'on this plan, which they have hitherto been compelled to decline, that the Directors at length determined on the establishment of a Mutual Assurance Branch; en the plan set forth in the Prospectus; after it had beets submitted to, and unanimously approved by, two succes sive fleiteral Meetinge of Proprietors, specially convened on the oecasion. The general objection to Mutual Assurance Societies, that (in their infancy, at least) they do not afford that complete security to the Assured which is supplied by the subscribed capital of Proprietary Establishments, is completely removed in the Mutual Branch of the "Britannia" Company; for not only are the Mutual Policy-holders protected by the entire subseribed capital of the Proprietary. Branch, but the loge and continually-increasing fhnd, accumulated from the Premiums ou 6,000 Policies already effected in that Branch, consti tutes an immediately avalable fund for the payment of the claims of the Assured, who will thus enjoy all the security afforded by an old established office, and, at the same time, become entitled to all the benefits to be derived from that system of Mutual Assurance which experience has proved to be at the same time the safest and the best. Another serious objection to the Mutual Assurance Plan (as gene rally acted on) is the high rate of premium required to be paid, in the fiJst instance, in order to form a fund—not only for the payment of the claims, but also for the distribution of large bonuses arum: the policy-holders. This objection also is entirely removed by means of o d liquida tion e the half credit system d e t a il e d i n the proveetus. }'or, by allowing half the amount of the first five annual premiums to remain f or fi ve years in the hands of the p erson assured, and apply i ng the bonus (to thie o h r l t t h e e ivO d u e l b d t otthheuns incurredb become h th entitled) e Company, h enjoys the rare advantage of a ver y l ow ra t e o f premium, in the first instance, combined with that of a full participation, cvcnttsally, in t e the gradualpolic the profits. In availing myself of this oppprivaiiy a congratulating my co shareholders on the Wri,ar.liaary success which hitherto has at tended tlw cipaations of the Britannia Life Assurance Company, I shall, at no very distant period, have still Mrther to congratu ._ . . ~ late them on the complete success of the Mutual Assuranoo P.V.11144. which, after the most anxious care and attention, bAs beim founded on a plan calculated, in every possiblo w•Ay, IA bet:Ofit and acc9.lur.^ . • - ..., date the public, . --.. _ll4Alictt l hi lo.stieti to the Dirootor*, COnehui. ~itin; /-0 . 1.1 F Attention to the able an" --' . this address without Wien afforded to me on t''''''' - oordial co-operation which has Occasion. hot - -' ..—..r part, not only on the p resent important ...... • also in every other Instance In which their advice and ~ssistance have been needthl thr promoting the interests of the Nati tntlort.

This was au action of libel. __ The plaintiff is the landlord of a public-house called the ittsitrg Sun, in Ay - r.street, and the defendant is the printer of the Era newspaper_ The alleged libel represented that the plaintiff had given information of a fight which was to come off on the 13th of August last, between two persons named Smith and Shrrnens, near Melton, and that his object in giving the information was for gain., as he had a large interest in one of the parties. It was also stated in the same newspaper that a man had been hocussed and robbr4 in the plantiff's publit.house, and that the plaintiff's affair with George Norl e y, an d ot h er shameful act., W‘rie not for gotten.

COURT OF F.XCHEQUER, May 9. (Nisi Prins Sittings at Westminster, before Baron PLATT and a Common Jury.) MEREDITH I'. MEILEDITR —SEDUCTION. Mr. AtExam:not, with Mr. Keating, appeared for the plaintiff, who, it was stated, was a farmer and dairyman residing at Twerton, near Bath, and complained in this action of the seduction of his daughter by the defendant, who was also the son of a farmer at Brislington, near Bristol, under circumstances of great aggra. ration. _The plaintiff and the defendant's father were grit cousins, and this connexion occasioned a close intimacy between the two families. So far back as the year 1842, the defendant made overtures of • marriage to Elizabeth Meredith, the elder daughter of the plaintiff; but no time was agreed upon, and the intimacy between the parties continued up to the month of January, 1844. In that month the mother of the defendant died, and the plaintiff's wife went to the defendant'i father's house, and stayed there until after the last offices were performed to the do. fendant's mother. The defendant then brought home the tiff's wife in a carriage, and at the same time proposed that the plaintiff's eldest daughter, Elizabeth, atould return with him. to take charge of his father's house. and that in about six weeks. or as soon as decency permitted, he should marry her. Under those circumstances, the plaintiffand his wife consented to their daugbfk going to the defendant's father's house. ' For a white the defen. • dant treated the young woman with respect, but shortly after cow. menced taking personal liberties With her, andlien wholly refused to perform his promise of marrying her. She left the defendant's house, and returned to her father's in, April, and in October last Was delivered of a female child, of which defendant was the father. The defendant had not contributed in any respect to the expenses consequent upon the young woman's pregnancy, and, under those circumstances, the father asked compensation from the jury. for the dishonour of his family, and the loss of his daughter's services. Elizabeth Meredith was then examined, and gave her testimony in so low a ton; with so much reluctance and apparent embarrass. meet, that very little she said was heard. She stated that she was twenty.five years of age, and the defendant thirty.flve years of age, and that be effected his object aboie a fortnight after she went to live at his father's, in the kitchen, on a Sunday night, after supper, and when the rest of the family had gone to bed. . On cross-examination the witness admitted that she had brought an action for breach of promise of marriage against the defendant. She positively denied that she had any other sweetheart but the defendant, or knew any other man. The person at whose house the plaintiff's daughter was confined. and a sister and brother of the young woman, Were also examined. Mr. HumFaLv (with whom was Mr. Gray) then addressed the jury for the defendant, in mitigation of damages. He admitted, after the evidence the jury had heard, that there must be a verdict for the plaintiff; but the defendant lived with and was wholly depen dent upon his father ; and if the jury gave a severe verdict, whilst it would ruin the defendant, it would do no service to the plaintl4 as the defendant must go to gaol. Baron PLATT, in summing up, observed that, though the defendant asked for mercy at the hands of the jury. he ought to. have thought a little of the mercy due to a father's feelings who bad entrusted his daughter to his charge. The defendant oedema the plaintiff's daughter ia a house where he ought to have felt. himself bound to protect any woman, and still more- a relation residing there under such circumstances. The jary. however. should endeavour, in estimating the damages, net to allow their feelings to. influence them in giving what might be called viedic. live damages. He was bound, also, to tell them that they were not entitled to give any damages in respect of the breach of pro mise of marriage. Atter a short consultation, the foreman said that eleven of the jury agreed, but one could not be got to agree to a verdict. Baron PLarr—Well, Gentlemen, retire, and discuss the matter. That is (ee of the advantages of trial by jury. A juror said he thought the plaintiff and his wife had both per. mitted the young woman to go to the defendant't house. Baron PLArr—Yes; but they did not conte:it to his debauching their daughter. Juror—No; but they put her very Much in the way of it. The jury then retired, and in ten minutes returned with a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 911. 6s. 9d. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARLBOROUGH-STREE7'. A JACK IN ►ND ♦ JACK OUT OF OFFICE.--.A. tall, gaunt, grizzle-haired man, who was immediately recognised as John Daniels, otherwise Long Jack, one of the Haymarket watermen, ascended the rostrum assigned to applicants who have grievances to redress, and throwing a proper quantity of " the dismal." into his face, waited until he could catch the eye ofjuslice. Well, my man, said Mr. HARDWICK, what do you want 1— Vants to know how I'm to get my third of the pump vat we water men put up and paid for in the Haymarket; cos, yer Vership„ Mister Mansell's taken avay my Haymarket badge and license, for giving hevicence agin Ratcliffe, wot's one of his own relations: As a preliminary step to afford a clear insight into the character of the application, it will be necessary to state that, a few weeks ago, a constable connected with the Metropolitan Hackney Car. riage Office, named Ratcliffe, was brought to this Court for drunken ness and misbehaviour. The charge of intoxication was mainly established by the applicant, who had treated the constable to propitiatory glass of gin. I got a letter from Mr. Mansell, wot belongs to the Hacknoy Carriage Office, Votlier day, yer Vership, said the applicant, sum.. moning me afore him, and telling me to bring my badge and license. Ven I goes, says he, "Daniel, we put another man in your place as vorterman in the Haymarket." o Hope," says 1, "there aiat nuffin agin my character." " No," says he, "not nuffin vat somhever ; but," says he, i s I sha'nt take away your license alto gether. I shall move you to the London bridge rank.." . It's werry hard lines," says I, "to have my bread taken from my mouth cos I only spoke the truth agin your relation. There's my badge and license, and I'll resign ; but vot about my third of the pump, vot I paid seven pound odd for." "Settle that there vith the man vot superscribes yer," says he; but yen I azes thin here man wot is appointed to be my predecessor, he says be vont pay a farden. Mr. a there's R D a W i C I o—l assist you ?--Vy, yo u see and buckets, my natural rights, cos I can show my receipt thirdpumphow for the money. Now spore this here, that I ketches the new man a using my third of the pump, and my third of the buckets, and my third of the vete'', and I stands up to pertect my own property, and one of the meterlolloping police constables brings me afore you for surnmut, vot'lt your Vership do to me? Mr. HAIIDWICK—I canmt give any opinion oa a hypothetical ease. If you have any complaint, why not see Mr. Wedgewhod. the Commissioner ? Applicant—" Mr. Vedgwood's too grand to see sich as us. Mr. Mansell does all the hoffice York, and it - an't no use axing him. But, yer Vership, it's a hard case to be turned out of my place, vot I've had so long, for speaking the truth. I've got a few clothes and a few little sticks—them's wot I must live on, and ven they're gone, and they won't last werry long, I've nuffin afore me but the union. Mr. Baum\ ICK--I should recommend you to lay your case in a memorial before the Commissioner. From what I know of Mr. Wedgewood's high sense of honour and justice, 1 am certain he never would sanction, on the part of a subordinate, any act of petty tyranny or oppression. The countenance of " Long Jack " brightened up, be thiAnked the magistrate, and left the Court. THE CRESCENT AND THE CROSS ; OR, ROMANCE AND REALITIES OF EASTERN TRAVEL • BY k.LIOT WARBURTON, EsQ.—A second edition 'of this work has just appeared. The Quarter 4 Review, in notic ing it, observes, " This book is vastly superior to the common run of narratives, and is indeed remarkable for the colouring power and the play of fancy with which its descriptions are enlivened. The writing is of a kind that indicates abilities likely to command success in the higher departments of literature. Almost every page teems with good feeling; and although that catholic heartedness ' for which the author takes credit permits him to view Mahometan doctrines and usages with a little too much of indifferentism, yet arriving in Pales• tine, he willingly becomes the good pilgrim, and at once gives in his adherence to the religion of the place' with all the zeal of a pious Christian. The book, inde pendently of its value as an original narrative, comprises much useful and interesting information." SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO CAPTAIN CLEVERTON.
