[ADVERTISEMENT.] DIRECT LONDON and MANCHES TER RAILWAY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—Mr. Remington has replied to my letter. lie is kind enough to say, in the opening, that if any ex pressions condemnatory of the course taken by me have been used by any parties, they have not been published by him or with his privity or consent. I was compelled to vindicate myself against a charge as absurd as it is untrue. To repel a charge of stealing Mr. Remington's line, I was obliged to use arguments to show the absence of all inducement to do it ; and for that purpose I was obliged to show that Mr. Remington - had asked the several sums of two, three, four, and five millions of money to mike his line. That he had varied that line. That he had subsequently started a London and Man chester and York line, asking seven millions to make the two. That he might as well have charged the London and York Company with having stolen their line, as charge m- with stealing a line to Manchester. Mr. Remington does not deny asking for the various stuns of money which I have mentioned, to accomplish the same line. Either his judgment was unsound, or he varied what be calls his line as often as he asked different sums. I have founded my statement on documents issued by himself. Mr. Remington says—l quote his own words : " In 1840 it was proposed to carry out the scheme alone between London and Manchester, for which I thought then, and think now, four millions sufficient." If he thinks so now, how can he reconcile with that opinion his prospectus, to which I reflr him, in the Morning Herald of the 23d of May last, asking for two millions only, in forty thowiand shares of fifty pounds each ? How does he reconcile with this his improved judg tnetit, asking three millions ? Or bis sounder judgment, asking four ? With his present opinion that four millions are enough, why does he ask five ? I have published no names in support of the line to which I have been appointed solicitor, but such as were given Lo me in or subsequent to June in this year. It is a sufficient answer to the statement about my n ai joining the Company of 1844 to say that which Mr R-mington has said for me—that I was unwilling. 1 proceed to stow, from Mr. Remington's answer, the absurdity of his calumny that I have sto'en his line. Speaking of a oir,et line, he says, " Where two pro jected lines start from the same termini, go near the some towns. cover the same route from beginning to becomes a matter of grave consideration which of t uvo competitors have the priority of conception." Now this will be seen by any one who will pause to en/13i •er it, to he nothing but a verbose mode of claim in thy- conception of a straight line ! I. is Hr. it,oo .gtoo's, mode or eio.at:rig himself into the (leat a. he !vat made a discovery, and the wan who can flatter haus, If with such a bubble, just the man to destroy himself by raising the foolish cry that another ha i robbed him of his novelty, and attracting men's attenti , e to its airy nothingness. Remington says he concedes that uo vested inte rest can exist in a line drawn on a 1:13p between two termini, but that he h is yet to learn that the pencil and the map are the only requsites in the formation of a railway. This is an admission of the question, for he had no other claim. He admits he had not surveyed the line from Leicester to Manchester, and he told me that he had examined the sect ors deposited by other engineers. His imputation induced me to make inquiry who had, us he had net, surveyed the country, and I now give him an extract from a letter written by an engineer who did survey it, and deposited the plans and sections of the greatest portion of the country:— "Birmingham, Aug. 22, 1845. " Dear Sir,—Just as I was leaving Manchester to-day you inquired of me when it was that I first made a sur vey down the Churnet Valley. I told you, as I had the plans eat! sections in my portmanteau, I would, as soon I arrived here, refer to them, and send you my answer by post. I have done so; and I find, in the'year 1837, at the request of the then-styled 'Manchester, Cheshire, and Stafford Railway Company,' I took plans and sec tions in almost every part of the country between the Grand Junction Railway and the Staffordshire Potte ries, ai well as to Macclesfield and Congleton, and also front the Potteries at Stoke and Lane End across the country down the valleys of the Team and the Blythe to Uttoxeter, Tutbury, Burton-upon-Trent, and Welling ton. I also, in the year 1839, made a survey from Stockport, by way of Macclesfield, the Rhudya Reser voir, down the Churnet Valley to Uttoxeter, Tutbury, and toe Birmingham and Derby Railway at Wellington. " And in the year 1840 I was employed by Mr. Macauley, on behalf of' the Midland Counties Railway, to set out a line from Stockport to Macclesfield and to Leek, down the Churnet Valley and the Valley of the Dove, to join the Midland Counties Railway at Derby. " The plans and sections are regularly deposited with the Clerks of the Peace. " I also surveyed a line for a railway from Stoke, in the Potteries, to join the last-mentioned line at Leek, which was also deposited with the Clerks of the Peace. "Although these plans were, as I have stated, regu larly deposited with the Clerks of the Peace, no further proce, dings ever took place upon them. I believe this is all the information you asked of me. " I am, dear Sir, yours truly, " JOHN M. RASTRICK. ." Messrs. Ashurst and Sun, at the Royal Hotel, Manchester." is now for Mr. Remington, who did not survey the courLry, to show the superiority of hi: claim against tik.ise who did. Mr. Remington says that he examined the valleys of tiht I), , rwent, the Wye, the Dove, and the Tean, and au.tistied himself that any direct route from London to Manchester must pass by one or other or both of the Batter valleys. Norr..if Mr. Remington were to tell us that he had -xamined the Cnannel between Dover and Calais, and fiad ati,fied nimself that the man ‘a-ho taished to go di rectly from the one place to the other must pass that Channel, no would give just as much information on the Fine suoje,.tt as he gives on the other, and would have just as much reason for calling it au original conception, and to cry " stop thief I" after every steamer that he did plot. there is not an enginoer or any name to practice who has not " examined" those valleys. Tiles , are traversei, or proposed to b, , traversed, by a , variety of companies, against whom and their respective engineers Mr. Remington, upon his own tactics, ought to shout " stop thief !" The plan he published, and to which he refers, in let:Tsai of going through those vallep, ran away to Derby, and this he called a direct line from London to Manche.ter. He claims to have published a direct route from Lon a.-,rl to Manchester in 1840 That ran to Derby and the hills by the Midland Coun ties Railway; the present one goes no nearer Derby than Leicester, and this deviation, he says, is easily explained, fur that he found that by carry; ,, p; the line Charnwood Forust, north o: suith of Barden Nr,rint, his line was rendered more perfect and direct, independent of the aidland Counties Railway, and con siltrab'y siiorter in distance. Ar) d this deviation, he says, he made in compliance with public opinion! IC , iw mark, art engineer, who on such a subject is to guide the public, says he bends the straight line to suit - the public taste ; and, though not born on the other side of tli,; Coannel, adds, that he found by deviating some twenty miles that he made his direct line considerably shot ter in distance ; this is another original conception. He must take care that Mr. Babbage, or some other .eminent mathematician, does not filch it. Mr. li , mington talks of meetings to support his line ; t•tero was but one meeting, that was at Bedford, got up b v himiclf to aid his project to got, York and Man- Tne people ofl3Aforil were only anxious about aline to or through their own town. They la not limos , that he had not surveyed it below Lei ester, nor was it in the order of things for them to inquire, ,or they thought, as was natural, 0' f the import ance of b > •tting a railroad, not of getting an engineer. Re ci.ose to attend, and a then active patron of his took the initiative of the business, and praised his " original moriception" most enormously. The result of conceiving to much was a miscarriage. It never entered into any body else's bead but Mr. Remington's that because a meeting at a-dford passed resolutions i❑ favour of a rail say to York an I Manchester through their town. that he theretsy acquired a fee simple in a line to Manchester, though he had not surveyed it. . I ha a shown that other engineers had surveyed the .country and &posited sections. Mr. Tltem:ngt - on has shown that he made no survey, bas that he published a map and a line notwithstanding. I don't say he filched it, but he says he did not survey it, and lip has published it as his own. Ile thus exhibits an engineer hoisting himself with hi; oAn petard, W. IL ASIIIIRST.

A trachea to this account is the following memorandum respecting sums Toid to foreign G.lyernments, and debts due by them to G t ,.-at Britain, which have been cancelled, in conse quen,pe of their relinquishment of the slave-trade PORTUGAL. No debt due to the Government of Great Britain ap Tears trp have been so cancelled ; but the debt incurred i3y Portugal for the loan raised in England, under the oonvention of 1809, and with the sanction of the British Government, devolved upon Great Britain in consequence of the annulment of that convention by Vb,?. slave-trade treaty of 1815. The particulars are brie a 3 as. folows : By the treaty between Great Britain and Portugal, conc i tic ;:,(l at Vienna the 22d of January, 1815, the Priilce Itk7ent of Portugal agreed that, from and after the ratiti?aa.'on and promulgation of that treaty, it should not be -lawful for Portuguese subjects to engage in the slave trade on the coast of Africa to the north of the Equator ; and by the same treaty his Britannic Majesty, on his part, agreed to remit, from the date at which the ratification of the treaty should be promul gated, such further payments as might then remain due and payable upon the loan of 600,0001., made in London for the service of Portugal, in consequence of the con vention between Great Britain and Portugal of tho 21st of April, 1809, which convention was declared to be ♦oid and of no effect. The treaty of January 22, 1815, was ratified and pro mulgated at Rio de Janeiro, July 1, 1815 ; from which date, therefore, Portugal was released from the engage ments which she contracted under the treaty of 1809, for the payment of the interest and sinking fund, and liqui dation of the principal, of the loan of 600,000/., raised under that treaty ; and those engagements were trans ferred to Great Britain. If the liberation of Portugal from this burden was not, in reality, the cancelment of a debt due by her to Great Britain, neither were the payments consequent thereupon, strictly speaking, sums paid to a foreign Government ; but the item will most appropriately be included under the head of payments. Assuming this to be the case, there will be to be added to the sums paid by Great Britain on account of the Portuguese loan of 1809—the sum of 300,0001., with interest thereupon, paid to Portugal, under the conven• tion of the 21st of January, 1815, and additional con vention of 28th July, 1817, in discharge of claims for Portuguese slave vessels captured previous to the Ist of June, 1814, by British cruisers; and the amount also paid as indemnification, under the additional convention of the 28th of July, 1817, for Portuguese slave vessels captured between the Ist of June, 1814, and the instal lation of the mixed commissions under the convention, viz., 265,1371. ss. 11d. THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 28, 1845. SPAIN. By the slave-trade treaty with Spain, of the 23d of September, 1817, Great Britain engages to pay Spain 400.0001., on the 20th of February, 1818, as compensa tion for all losses sustained by Spanish subjects in con sequence of the abolition of the traffic. Of the other returns, the seventh only requires special notice. It is a return of the expences of liberated Afri cans, and of the liberated African:department, in each year, from Dec. 1838, to Dec. 1844, including buildings and all contingent expenses, so far as the same can be made out at the Audit-office, comprising maintenance, clothing, medical treatment, fuel and light, salaries, hire and ex penses of buildings, and other incidental expenses, in the colonies of Antigua, Bahamas, Bremen, Cape of Good Hope, Demerara, Dominica, Gambia, Ha vannah, Jamaica, Mauritius, Rio de Janeiro, St. Kitt's, St. Helena, Sierra Leone, and Tortola. The total amount for these years amounts to 150,3541. ss. 11 td. SOUTHWARK ELECTION. MEETING OF SIR WILLIAM AIOLESSVORTH'S FRIENDS. The supporters of thi;eentremau held a meeting last evening, in the Southwark Literary Institution, which was vary fully attended. The chair was occapied by Edward Evans, Esq., who, after a few introductory observations, in'roduced the Hon. Baronet to the meeting. Sir WILLIAM MOLESWORTH commenced by going over the same topics which have formed the subject matter of all his previous addresses. He then proceeded to notice the progress of his cause with the electors, stating that his election for the borough of Southwark was all but certain. He was informed by his Committee that the canvass had hitherto been most successful. By far the greater majority of electors pledged themselves to support him. Next in number of supporters stood Mr. Pilcher, and least and last of all, with far the fewest number of electors to sustain his cause, stood Mr. Miall. He could assure the meeting that Mr. Miall had no chance.—(Cheering, with an expression of dissent from an elector whu sat on the second bench.) Addressing a conspicuous individual, he inquired if he denied the fact of Mr. Miall's utter hopelessness of success? The ELECTOR replied, that as he had been appealed to personally, he could not undertake personally to deny it. Sir W. MOLESWORTH proceeded—He should prove that Mr. Miall's friends well knew the fact that he had no chance of being returned. They knew the state of the case. And why, then, did they persevere ? Be cause some of them had said that they would rather see a Tory returned than him (Sir W. Molesworth). He repeated the offer he had already frequently made, to leave it to the Liberal electors to make their choice be tween him and Mr. Miall, and he would pledge himself to retire if the selection should not fall upon him.— (Cheers.) Why had not Mr. Miall or his friends ac cepted that fair proposal ? Would the gentleman who represented Mr. Miall at the meeting explain the reason, and tell them why ? The ELECTOR who had before interrupted the busi ness begged that Sir William Molesworth would not call upon him to sustain Mr. Miall's cause. Sir W. MOLESWORTH would not again appeal to him, as he had renounced and repudiated the cause of Mr. Miall. But he had supposed him anxious to put himself forward as an advocate. The ELECTOR jumped up again, and indignantly de nied that he had either renounced or repudiated Mr. Miall's cause. Sir W. MOLESWORTH resumed. He would explain the reason why Mr. Miall would not accept the offer. It was because he well knew that the choice of the Liberal electors would not fall upon him. It was be cause he and his friends were well aware that the choice of the majority of the Liberal electors would fall upon him. Mr. Miall's friends were perfectly aware that he had no chalice, and as he felt himself the stronger of the two, he should persevere in going to the poll.—(Loud cheers.) The trial ought to be one of principle ; it ought to be only between Liberality and Toryism, and he was perfectly sure of defeating the Tory candidate, even under the present cir cumstances. But still it was matter of deep rogret that the majority by which he would be returned would be let.seuell by number withdrawn by another professing Liberal candidate. However, in point of fact, the contest lay between himself and Mr. Pilcher, and it was there- fore with his principles alone he had to deal. He differed from Mr. Pilcher on four different or four very important questions. The first was religious liberty and equality ; the second was that of justice to Ireland ; the third was the important question of free trade ; and the fourth and last was with regard to the necessity of certain altera tions which ought to be made in the institutions of the country. Having explained his views as before upon the first of these questions, he expressed his absolute opposition to all endowments for religious purposes whether Protestant, Catholic, or other denomination.— (Continued cheering.) Ho then explained his reasons for excepting the late Maynooth grant from his general opposition to all endowments for religious purposes. Some interruption having ensued, An ELECTOR called out " That question is settled ; it is only a clap-trap to throw you out, Sir William." Sir W. MOLESWORTH—Oh, never fear. There is no fear of that.—(Tremendous cheering.) The next ques tion was justice to Ireland. With regard to that ques tion, he should say that the first vote he ever gave in Parliament upon an important subject, was against the well-known Act, called the Irish Coercion Act.— (Cheers.) Not more than half a dczen English Mem bers voted with him upon that occasion, and for their conduct they were subjected to the greatest obloquy. They were threatened with expulsion from their seats in Parliament for their vote on that question, yet, shortly afterwards Lord Grey's administration was thrown out, when the reaction took place, in the pro duction of which that very question had an important influence. He (Sir W. Molesworth) had always voted on the Liberal side of every question, and generally with Mr. O'Connell—(Cheers)---and be had seconded Mr. flume's motion for putting down Orange lodges in Ire laud.—(Cheers.) The Hon. Baronet resumed his seat amidst the most enthusiastic applause. Mr. WARBLING rose to move the customary resolution, to the effect that the meeting was satisfied with the candid and straightforward statement made by Sir William Molesworth, which had entitled him to their support and confidence ; and that they pledged them selves to use their most strenuous exertions to secure his return to Parliament as the representative for the bo• rough of Southwark. Sir WILLIAM MOLESWORTH said two questions had been put to him. The first was—What would have been the course pursued by him had he been in the House of Commons when Lord Worsley's Bill for enclosing the public commons was introduced ? To that he could only answer, that not having ever read that Bill, he was unprepared to state his views upon it.—(" You ought to have read it then.") Well, may be he ought, but the fact being that he had not, he could give no other answer. But his conduct would be ever guided by the principle of taking care of the pri vileges and providing for the wants and the amusements of the working classes.—(Cheers.) The second ques tion was —What course would he ha ve adopted with re gard to Lord Ashley's Bill for shortening the hours of labour in factories ? To that he should only reply, that the question was a difficult one, and he should feel ex treme reluctance in interfering between master and workman. —(Applause and hisses.) Mr. WARELING was then permitted to proceed with his speech, in the course of which he said that Mr. Miall was injuring the cause by his conduct, in persevering in the course he was pursuing. —(Hear, hear.) The resolution having been seconded by Mr. MAL unTT, was put from the chair and carried with but few dissentien's. A vote of thanks waq then given to the Chairman, when the meeting, which was a very numerous one, separated. MEETING OF MR. MULL'S FRIENDS. The friends of this gentleman held another meeting last evt-ring, at the Snip Inn, Long-hoe, Bermondsey, ti advance the interests of their favourite candidate, Mr. Maynard in the chair. Thy CHAIRMAN said the object of the meeting was to advance the liberties of the people, by the return of Mr. Miall to Parliament. That Hon. Gentleman would state hii political principles to the meeting, arid afterwards they would have to consider whether he was a fit and proper person to represent the borough in the House of Com mons. It was his intention to grant the fullest discus sion as to the merits of the candidate he was about to introduce, as such a course was the only one consistent with truth and justice. The Chairman concluded by introducing Mr. Miall. Mr. MIALL, in rising to address the meeting, was re ceived with great cheering. He commenced by saying, that in all the addresses he had made since the begin ning of the contest, he had put forward a question which had created much division of opinion in the borough and throughout the country—he meant the Maynooth grant.—(Hear.) He objected to that grant on principle. If he thought that such a grant would tend to advance the liberties of the much oppressed Irish people, he would most certainly have supported it. But he thought otherwise. He believed the main objeet of that measure was to stave off the redress of Ireland's Mr. MILLER, an elector of Bermondsey, moved the usual resolution, that Mr. Miall was an efficient person to represent the borough in Parliament. The Rev. Mr. BENSON seconded the resolution. As a Dissenter, he could not conscientiously support any of the candidates but Mr. Miall. Sir William Moles worth's views on the Maynooth grant and the new poor -1:7.w were such as he entirely differed from. How, then, could he consistently vote for such a man? Mr. JOHN GARRAT supported the resolution, in a speech condemnatory of the centralising policy of the Whigs. VOUSLEY made some observations, regretting the division which at present existed in the borough. He was sorry now to be separated from the friends with whom he had formerly acted, but he was so from the impression that he was pursuing the wiser course to serve the Liberal interest. Sir William Molesworth was the best man that, under existing circumstances, could be brought forward. He was a tried man, and one who had always acted honestly and consistently when in l'arliament.—(Cries of " No, no," and cheers.) Mr. WEBB made a reply at some length to the re marks of the previous speaker. He declared himself fa ♦ourable to the views of Complete Suffrage advocated by Mr. Miall, though not long ago his opinions had ma terially differed on this question. _ _ Several other speakers having addressed the meeting, the resolution was carried with but two dissentients. A vote of thanks was then given to the Chairman, when, after a few parting words from Mr. Mial , the meeting dispersed. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. EG HAM RACES.—WEDNESDAY. Another fine day, a list prolific of racing, amateur and professional, and an attendance that suffered little from a comparison with Egham in its best days.

This wonderful medicine perfectly identifies and assimi• lates itself with the blood and other fluids, while it removes from them all impurities. It acts upon the stomach, the liver, the heart, the lungs, and the kidneys, and in its course so surely cleanses and invigorates those organs as to make the return of health the immediate consequence of a few doses of this won der-working remedy. Persons of weak and debilitated consti tutions are sure to regain their health and vigour by their use, even when every other means have failed.

ELIGION IN THE COLONIES —From a bulky Par- liamentary return, just published, it appears that, according to a schedule of the grants, endowments, and appropriations made for the purpose of religious instruction or of education in the colonies (the gross total publication of our colonial depen dencies amounting in the aggregate to 4,705,739 souls), there was paid in 1842 a total sum of 226,90 W. to the Clergy of the Churches of England, Scotland, Rome, and the Methodist and Dissenting Ministers, of which 46,9641. was paid by the British Treasury, and 176,938/. from Colonial funds. The grants from the British Treasury to schools during the same period amounted to 23,117/., and that for Colonial funds to 146,2307., making a grand total of 172,407/ Of the sum of 49,694/. granted by the Treasury to the Clergy, those of the Anglican Establishment received 44,593/. ; those of the Scotch, 3471. ; and those of the Romish, 2,0241. Of the sum of 176,9381. granted from Colonial funds, 118,4431. was received by the Anglican Clergy, 296451. by the Scotch, 4,634/ by the Wesleyans and Dissen ters, and 24,216/. by the Romish Priests.

The real object of the grant, which was but the beginning of a series of similar measures, was, to detach the priests from the people, and make the latter take the side of the oppressors against the oppressed.—(Cheers.)2,He was against all forms of religious endowment whatever, as tending to subvert the liberties of the people. It was said that another candidate, who was earlier in the field than himself, (Sir Wm. Molesworth,) entertained similar opinions on this subject. In proving this he liked something better than mere abstract theory— he liked practice. Lord John Russell had uttered, in the House of Commons, some of the finest sentiments ever delivered in favour of civil and religious liberty, yet no man had done things more cilculated to do injury to the practical ad a pt a ti on o f thoslv, principles than the same Noble Lord.—(Hear, hear.) Some better test must be given of the value of a Member than fine say ings. Let them put the question to the other candidate, if he would, in the event of being elected, vote for the abolition, not only of the Irish Church Establishment, but the withdrawal of all ecclesiastical endowments, and the application of the funds so regained to secular pur poses.—(Loud cheers.) This would be the way to try him.—(Hear, hear.) He (Mr. Miall), at least, was prepared to go that length ; and in the event of his election he would pledge himself to make a motion to that effect.—(Loud cheers.) The Honourable Candi date having stated his views at length on this subject, went into the question of the suffrage, declaring himself in favour of universal suffrage, with the usual limitations. He had, he said, been charged with dividing the Liberal interest. He called on those who talked about the Liberal interest so much, to define what that interest really was, and wherein it differed from Conservatism. For the last few years, for his own part, he saw little to choose between Lord John Russell and Sir Robert Peel. Nearly every bad measure which the latter had proposed to subjugate the liberties of the people, the former had supported. lie saw no necessity for any alarm about dividing that interest ; therefore he was for no compromise ; and would be no party to any ar rangement involving a sacrifice of principle. He came forward as a candidate, to afford a rallying point for the liberal portion of the liberal electors, and to enable the Dissenters to act consistently with their professions. He differed with Sir William Molesworth not in degree, but in principle, and was willing to meet that gentleman face to face in discussion, and to maintain what he had just advanced. Mr. Miall concluded amidst great applause. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. the fillets as described in the patent ; but it seemed established that their servants took old and new brasses, and after tinning them in the usual way, had, while the brasses were hot, with a stick of tin, laid on as much as they could to the extent of from the 16th to the Bth of an inch. Many of these brasses were new, and it was not, therefore, the mere patching of old ones. Was that substantially an adoption of any pr_rt of the patent-- had they, by thus laying on the tin, smoothing it in some cases with a soldering-iron, as described, obtained some portion of the benefit of the invention; and was that part aew? The jury, after being out a considerable time, returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 1,0001. This case was the last on the list, with the exception of an action for illegal imprisonment in violation of the plaintiff's protection under the order of the Court of Bankruptcy, which was still proceeding when the report came away. NORTHERN ClRCUlT.—Liverpool, Aug. 26. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. Justice CRESSWELL and a Spe cial Jury.) DOI, DEM. HUTCHINSON, V. THE MANCHESTER, BURY, AND ROSSENDALE RAILWAY. Mr. Wortley and Mr. Crompton appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Baines, Mr. Martin, and Mr. Brandt for the defence. This was an action of ejectment, to recover a piece cf land which had been taken by the company for the purposes of the undertaking. In opening the case the Learned Counsel stated that it had formerly been occupied by the lessor of the plaintiff, who had a house upon - it, and afterwards by his tenants. He held a lease from the Earl of Derby. The company, requiring this ground, and being empowered to take it under the com pulsory clauses in their Act, had taken possession of it. The lessor of the plaintiff had, it was alleged, been willing to let them hare it on fair and reasonable terms, but these they had declined, and had, it was contended, in taking it under their Act, not complied with the provisions therein contained. The Act was passed on the sth of July, 1844, and in the course of the same month Mr. Hutchinson got notice that this land would be wanted. It was finally agreed to settle the amount to be paid to Mr. Hutchinson by arrangemont between him and a Mr. Statter, who was to act for the company. They met, and agreed that the purchase money should be whatever any re spectable insurance company might fix on as the value of the lease. The annual value, however, the parties could not agree upon, and the agent of the company wrote to Mr. Hutchin son, saying that it must be referred, as usual in such cases, to a jury. After some further correspondence, and a proposal of reference by Mr. Hutchinson, notice was given by the company of an offer by them of a certain sum, which, if he declined, was to be settled by a jury ; and, accordingly, in twenty-one days from that time, a warrant issued under the Act to empannel a jury and assess the compensation. Mr. Hut chinson wrote to request a postponement, on the ground of ill ness, but the inquisition, on the 13th of January, took place notwithstanding ; and the company, under this authorithy, took possession of the land. It was said by the company that they were entitled so to do, because the owner had neglected to make out a title, in which case the A ct veste d t h e l an d i n the but this th e L earne d C ounse l sa i d company, at once ; was not so. It was no doubt necessary, for the sake of the public, that railways should be constructed ; but the companies in exercising the very extensive powers granted them by the Legislature, must strictly act within those powers, which in the present case they had not done. Evidence was then adduced to show the possession of Mr. Hutchinson and his tenants for a great many years. It appeared also that, at the investigation before the jury, leases had been produced on the part of Mr. Hutchinson. For the defence it was said, that Mr. Hutchinson had acted vexatiously throughout the whole transaction, and that the company, who had had no disputes with any other parties but himself, were at last obliged to avail themselves of their Par liameatry powers, and take possession of the land under their parliamentary title. The various clauses of the Act were re ferred to to show that the company had acted according to its provisions, in taking proceedings before a jury. They had taken this course after having in vain tried to come to terms, and they had refused to postpone the investigation, because from the previous conduct of the party they doubted the sin cerity of his intentions. The inquiry had been conducted by counsel on both sides, and the jury awarded a sum of 4,0801. It was alleged, too, that the lease produced on behalf of Mr. Hutchinson was dated but three days before, that it was pro duced by Mr. Statter, who was Lord Derby's agent, and was retained in his possession. The company under the circum stances were, it was contended, authorised to look upon the lessor of the plaintiff as neglecting to make oat a title, and they accordingly paid the money into the Bank of England, and took possession of the land. Evidence was adduced on the part of the company as to what took place respecting the inquiry before the jury, and a long correspondence was re e d on th e su bject of M r . Hutchin son's title. It appeared that 11r. Hutchinson's solicitors had deffianded from the solicitors for the company a draught of a conveyance to be executed, while the others insisted the land had already vested in the company, and no conveyance was wanted. His LORDSHIP said the question between the parties seemed to be whether the lessor of the plaintiff was bound to show a title or the defendant to demand one. He thought the latter was the case, and a verdict was finally entered for the plaintiff, with nominal damages. CROWN SlDE.—(Before Mr. Baron RoLrE.) John Thorley Ball, Richard Cantrell, and John Holborn, were indicted for a conspiracy to defraud. Mr. James and Mr. Atkinson conducted the prosecution ; the prisoners were defended by Mr. J. Pollock. The evidence against the prisoners was very complicated and ran to great length, but in substance it was male to appear that the prisoners and others had taken establishments at Man chester, Liverpool, and Ceester, under pretence of carrying on business, and by this means, and with the assistance of cross references to oneo.notber at these various places, had obtained quantities of leather, pickles, steel, porter, and other miscel laneous commodities, which, on coming to hand, were imme diately disposed of at any price that could be obtained for them. A principal witness was a person who had been in their employ ment, and an accomplice in the fraud. The prisoners were convicted, and His Loansure sentenced Ball and Holborn - to be imprisoned for two years, and Cantrell to be imprisoned one sear. August 27. NEWTON V. THE GRAND JUNCTION RAILWAY COMPANY. This was an action to recover compensation from the com pany for the alleged infringement of a patent taken oat by the plaintiff on the 15th of May, 1843, for improvement in the bearings of the axles of railway carriages, and other axles where great friction existed. The invention purported to have been a communication from a Mr. Isaac Babbelt, an American, from Boston. Mr. Babbelt was in Liverpool in the year 1843, and had permission from the Liverpool and Manchester Rail way Company to make experiments on two of the engines on their line. The result was satisfactory, and he afterwards sold the discovery to the present plaintiff. A great number of pleas were put on the record—first, " Not guilty ;" secondly, that the plaintiff was not the first and true inventor; thirdly, that he did not duly enrol his specifica tion •, fourthly, that it was not sufficiently described in the specification ; fifthly, that the invention was not an improve ment ; and sixthly, that at the time of taking out the patent the invention was not " a manufacture, nor used and known within the kingdom," as described in the statute of James. The case commenced 'yesterday, and a great m... of ...id.... was adduced, to show the nature of the invention, its novelty, and the importance of the results in diminishing the wear and tear of locomotive engines. It appeared that the invention consisted in lining the semicircular brass " step" of the axle, which rested on the axle, and bore the weight of the carriage, with an alloy of a softer metal, of considerable thickness, which was prevented from spreading and yielding to the pres sure by a brass fillet along its edge. The step was lined by first. polishing the inside, tinning it, and then placing within it a mould the size of the axle or "journal," as it was called, running in the alloy while in a state of fusion. This alloy in cooling adhered to the tin and became incorporated with the brass step, fitting closely to the journal or axle which revolved in it. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, Assistant Judge, and a Bench of Magistrates.) On Wednesday Charles M'Donald was indicted, charged with having stolen a leathern belt, a knife, and other articles, of the value of 10s., the property of Ebenezer Speneer. Mr. Prendergast appeared for the prosecution, whilst Mr. Payne conducted the defence. It appeared that the prosecutor is a respectable tradesman in High-street, Shoreditch, and that in consequence of his suspi cions having been aroused as to the propriety of his wife's con duct, as well as that various articles had been stolen, he had engaged two of the police force to watch the premises and the procee. ings which were carried on therein during his absence. The officers, therefore, were stationed in a recess under the shop on the evening of Sunday, the 10th, upon the occasion of the prosecutor leaving the house. Shortly after the latter had quitted the premises his wife was seen to walk into the shop and then to let some one in. This individual she instantly ushered into a back room, where he had not been long ere the officers had abundant proof of the unfaithfulness of the wife. They continued watching until they observed the prisoner, for he it was who had been admitted, put a leathern belt into his pocket, whereupon they rushed from their hiding place. The prisoner, however, ran off, an example which was quickly fol lowed by the wife. They were, nevertheless, soon taken, and the prosecutor was sent for. Upon the prisoner being searched, the articles named in the indictment were found upon him. When the things were discovered, he said that they bad been given to him by the prosecutor's wife, and appealed to her for an acknowledgment of the fact. The wife replied that she had not given him either the knife or the pencil-case. In the course of the statement of the prosecutor, it was elicited that he had been married to his wife for upwards of fifteen years, sad that she had borne him seven children, of whom five were still living. With respect to the articles stolen, he denied that he had ever authorised his wife to give them away. He had commenced an action against the prisoner for crim. con. Mr. PitErrnEaGAsT eventually—having been called upon by the counsel for the prisoner to make his election as to the par ticular article upon which he would, on the present indictment, go against the prisoner, because it was manifest that the whole had been taken at different times—elected to go upon the leathern belt. The articles were then produced, when it turned out that there was not any " belt," as described in the indictment, but that it was a piece of leather only. The Learned CHAIRMAN thereupon told the jury that they must acquit the prisoner. The jury, apparently with much reluctance, returned a verdict accordingly. The prisoner was then triad upon another indictment, which charged him with having stolen a piece of merino cloth, the property of the former prosecutor's father. In this instance much difficulty arose in consequence of its being set up by the prisoner that the merino belonged to his mother. The prosecutor's family swore positively that it was his pro perty, and that it had been in the possession of his father and grandfather. - On the other hand, the mother of the prisoner produced a quantity of merino which exactly matched, and stated that the bit in question had formed a part of the larger bulk, and, moreover, that it had been in her possession for 15 years. She also said that the prisoner and his brother occupied a room in her house and that this merino had formerly been a portion of the bed furniture in that room. A number of witnesses were called, all of whom spoke in high terms of the prisoner's conduct in every relation of life. He was a member of the theatrical profession, and had occu pied situations at the Victo r i a an d Cit y of London Theatres. The Learned JUDO& having summed up, The jury Acquitted the prisoner. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Yesterday William lrinkley was again placed at the bar, charged with having illegally pawned watches left with him to be cleaned and repaired. Three cases were distinctly proved. The prisoner, who appeared to be a very young man, said he was extremely sorry, but hehad met with misfortunes which threw him into difficulties. The LORD AL/YOR said, it was necessary that people to whom the property of others was intrusted should know the serious punishment to which they would be subjected in vio lating the law, as in the present instance. The 39th and 40th of George 111., cap. 99, see. 8, stated, that if any person knowingly and designedly pawned or unlawfully disposed of the goods of any other person, he should be fined in a penalty not exceeding 51., nor less than 2Ps., and also the full value of the goods ' • and if thepenalty were not paid f or th w ith, th e o ff en d er should be imprisoned, with hard labour, in Bridewell, for three months; and if within three days before the expiration of the term of commitment the forfeitures were not paid, the magis trate might order the convicted person to be publicly whipped. The prisoner was then fined according to the Act, and com mitted in default of payment for the three separate offences. BOW-STREET. Yesterday Howard Au g ustine Styles, remanded from last week, was placed at the bar to answer further charges of forgery. No addition was made to the cases investigated at the last examination. The present inquiry related to a bill of exchange drawn by the prisoner, and purporting to be accepted by Gunter and Co., confectioners, the amount being 561. 195., at two months. It was shown to a tailor, named Cook, living in Upper Charles-street, Westminster, who was asked by the pri soner to get it discounted for him in the City. Cook procured a cheque for it, and handed ch. produce to the prisoner- who' so,. Liao au urger for two coats, and paid down 71. in advance on account. Mr. T. W. Gunter, and his partner, Mr. Bishop, (confec tioners in Berkeley -square) attended to prove the forgery. They had occasionally done business to a trifling extent with the prisoner, but never accepted a bill from him or any other party. Cook stated that he had known the prisoner many years, formerly as a chemist in Regent-street, but latterly as a general dealer. He believed him to be a respectable man up to the present transactions. There were yet several other charges against the prisoner, but owing to the unavoidable absence of a material witness, their investigation was deferred to Saturday next, to which day the prisoner was again remanded. So numerous have been these forgeries, that Messrs. Gunter and Co., harassed by applications for the bills purporting to bear their signature, were compelled to publish a caution upon the subject. A great number of witnesses were called to prove the ad. vantage of this arrangement, in diminishing friction, in pre venting the heating of the axles, in needing a smaller suppl y of oil, and in enabling the bearing to run for a much longer time without the necessity of renewal or repair.

During the first four days of the past week it was al• most constant rain, and from Tuesday to Wednesday it rained so constantly and heavily, that every streamlet, brook and burn were swollen to the highest flood-mark of winter. It was truly surprising, however, to find, when the weather settled on Thursday, how very small a portion of the crop had been lodged. The rain told chiefly upon the oats, which have been a good deal twisted about and laid. Wheat and barley have been comparatively little affected. Yesterday was the first fin.: day we have had for some time. The sun shone out brightly, and with genial warmth during the greater part of the day, and although it looked cloudy to wards nightfall, the atmosphere felt dry and bracing, and we hope that a track of favourable weather has now cone menced.l The harvest is already late, and notwith standing that there is an unusual approximation in the time of ripening in the late and early districts, yet even with greater advantages in respect of weather than can be hoped for at so advanced a period of the season, the crop can hardly be secured till some time later than an average, and every one knows the disad vantages attending a late harvest in this northern climate. The few patches, consisting almost ex clusively of barley, which have yet been cut, are too sib 11 to offer a fair indication either as to quality or produce, but in so far as they can be taken into ac count, the yield on the barn floor is understood to be fair, and the quality s itisfactory. Three or four days of bright sunshine would prepare a considerable breadth of crop for the sickle, hut even in the most favourable circumstances the harvest will not he general for at least ten days. Au unusual number of poor Irishmen are wandering about the country in search of harvest work, many of them accompanied with wives and children, who in this inclement season are suffering almost as much from cold as from hunger. Yesterday, the roads for twelve or fourt.•en miles to the east were covered with 'hem, and a number who had gone to East Lothian were again returning to Edinburgh.—Cuiedonian Mer cury, Aug. 23. Coltx.—At this most critical season the various changes in the atmosphere are naturally regarded with anxious interest, from the infilience tlie)' exercise on the condition and prospects of the harvests. It is, there tore, with considerable regret we have to notice the continuance of unfavourable weather, and the fact no longer admits of dispute, that considerable damage has be , n done to the wheat crop in most parts of the coun try—though, as yet, the other crops have not suffered co any material extent. The weather, for the last week, has been very unfavourable for ripening —harsh dry winds prevailed in the intervals between showers, and scarcely an hour of genial sunshine cheered the hopes of the agriculturist. Reapiug wheat progresses generally through the country—the deficiency in the yield is variously estimated; but we are informed that the quality of the grain is generally good. The oat crop in many places is very backward, though otherwise it cannot be complained of as yet. To-day looks as if some favourable change was at hand.—Cork Reporter. LDIERICK.—The crops in the locality of Broadford are very late. The wheat, in particular, has suffered much—a great part blind, and a large breadth lost by smut. The damage done to the river meadows by the late floods amounts in many instances to total loss. Po tato crops and pasture fields, notwithstanding, never looked better. Turnips, also, which latterly have be come to a certain emtent a poor man's crop, are holding out most encouraging prospects to the sowers of them. Oats present a very variable appearance altogether ; if the present film weather does not continue, the conse quences are to be dreaded.—Lirnerich Chronicle. TUAM. —Since our last, we have had a tolerable ces sation from rain; but the cold and wind which generally precedes the showers, are almost as great as in October. However, the crops in this neighbourhood are in gene ral looking very well, and ripening fast. Already the sickle has been at work in several fields near this town. —7'uata _Herald. WEXFORD.—We continue to hear from all parts of the country very favourable reports of the state of the crops. The weather proves highly propitious, yet the seeson is a remarkably backward one throughout every district. The proprietor of this paper has cut three acres of barley, and about the same extent of wheat, both of which are of prime quality, and some of both are now in oar markets. Prices are very variable, and wheat has fallen fully three shillings a barrel during the week. Potatoes are rather higher, the employment of the farmers rendering the supply somewhat less. SLIGo.—The weather has, on the whole, been un favourable singe our last publication—yesterday and to day, however, are dry and sun-shining—the thermome ter continues to go ap, and we therefore hope the harvest, which all accounts represent as abundant, will be safely jur.4, - nt44. DERRY.—VVe have hail more wet and cold in the pre -ent month of August than in any for several years past. Seemly a single day has been fair throughout, and when it has happened to be dry, the temperature was so low as to contribute very little to ripen the crops, Cor the safety of which very serious fears begin to be entertiined. The wheat is very exteeeively infected with rust, and, in many places, it was laid by the heavy rains which fell some weeks ago. The quality is likely, in consequence, to be seriously deteriorated. Flax will be considerably below an average crop, not having been sown so largely as formerly ; nor does it appear to be so luxuriant. Prices, however, will probably- rule high during the winter, on account of the demand t - i supply the spinning mills, and as the supply of foreign flax is also likely to be short. The potato crop is esseesiiine• abundant, scarcely any failures having occurred ; nor do we hear any complaints similar to those made iu England, to th,' effect that the potatoes are rotting iu the ground, and that they have to be dug, in consequence, before they have become ripe. Oats appear to he a heavy end promising crop, and they seem to have escaped with slight damage, from the unfavour able weather, but they eeqnire sunshine to bringt hem tv maturity. The barley has in several instances been hid by tht , rain.—Derry Satinet liascar.t.—During the last f irtnight the weather has been very changeable, but the crops, we are happy to find, are not much injured. The harvest wiil, however, be later than was anticipated, and the wheat crop ap pears to have suffered more than any other grain. Hay will fetch a Letter price than was expected owing to the callow*, having been so extensively &bod e d._ Leinster lz.xp,ess.

Whether we consider the chivalric heroism of the attempt, its rapid and brilliant success, or its sudden extinction, it presents one of the most interesting events in British history. Fatal as were its effects on the for tunes of so many in both Scotland and England, the spirit of Jacobitism continued to burn while the Stewart race were in existence, and to this day the memory of those who took part in the romantic campaign is cherished with feelings of the highest respect. One of the most curious records of the stir ring events of the '45 will be the work advertised in our co lumns, which is a reprint from the only copy extant of the Glasgow Courant, printed during this eventful period. Most of the histories of this extraordinary attempt, even by con temporaries, are unsatisfactory, the materials having been col lected often from hearsay, and as frequently by writers ssrongly prejudiced against the unsuccessful party; but here we have authorised details of both, and such a document will vividly record the impressions which the passing events made on the public of those days, so different in manners and modes of thinking from presynt society. A FATHER KILLED BY PLAYING WITH HIS CHILD.—On Tuesday forenoon Mr. G. I. Mills held an inquest at the King's Head, Lower-road, Islington, on the body of Thomas Owen, aged thirty-four, a porter in the employ of Mr. Tapster, landlord of the Craven Hotel, Craven -street, Strand. Oa Saturday afternoon last decea se d w as returning to London with his child, in a cart belonging to Mr. Ashley, of IS, Strand, with the driver of which he was acquainted. They were in the Holloway-road, near the end of the Camden town-road, when the driver of the cart turning round to speak to deceased, who was sitting behind him, saw him slipping off the back part of the cart. He pulled up, and found deceased lying bleeding from the head and neck, and barely able to ar ticulate "Oh, James, take care of my child I" The driver stated that deceased was playing with a young child that ac companied him, and in throwing it up with his arms, he be lieved the weight of the child caused the overbalancing of the fa , ber, and the fall from the cart. The child was unhurt. Deceased received prompt medical assistance, was conveyed to Islington, and died from concussion of the brain soon atter the fall. Verdict, " Accidental death."
