The Provisional Directors beg to inform the Subscribers that it has been determined to carry out the original plan of this undertaking by extending the line from Market Harborough to Bedford, where It will unite with the Northern and Eastern Railway, and from the North ampton and Peterborough line, near Ditchford-bridge, to Huntingdon, where it will unite with the Cambridge and Huntingdon and Ely and Huntingdon Railways, thus completing a direct communication by means of existing lines between the East of England and Birming ham and the manufacturing district!, without any infringement upon vested interests. The proposed extensions will also furnish a supply of coal, iron, and other articles of heavy merchandise, to a district at present but ill supplied with land or water carriage. The heads of an arrangement of a highly satisfactory nature with the Midland Counties and London and Birmingham Companies having been made, it is intended that the entire line shall be laid down under the able superintendence of Mr. Robert Stephenson. Edmund Peel, Esq., Chairman of the Trent Valley Railway, and Henry Teotal, Erg., have joined the Committee of Management, and other important measures are in progress, the details of which will shortly appear. The greater part of the increased capital being placed at the dis posal of the London and Birmingham and Midland Counties Coln panics, the remainder will be appropriated amongst the landowners and parties locally interested and holders of the present South Mid land scrip. No applications from the public can, therefore, be euter taMed. Detailed particulars, with estimates of traffic and plans, will shortly be issued, and may be obtained at the offices of the Com pany, 1, Gray's Inn-square, London. By order, GEORGE NEWTON BROWNE, Secretary. South Midland Offices, 1, Gray's Inn-square, July 31, 1845. RUGBY, DERBY, AND MANCHESTE . RAILWAY. (Provisiohally registered pursuant to 7 and S Viet., c. 110.) - This Railway will commence at the Rugby station of the London and Birmingham Railway, and will proceed in nearly a straight line to Derby, using so much of the Leicester and Swannington Railway as lies in its course. From thence it will join the High Peak and Manchester, Buxton. Matlock, and Midland Railways. The principle of this Railway is to obtain a direct through line be tween some of the most important districts in the kingdom with the least possible amount of new railway, and consequently the smallest expenditure of capital. The proposed Railway will form a direct continuation of the Lon don and Birmingham Railway to Manchester, and thus supersede the necessity of any direct Manchester and London Railway, as the distance to London by this route will be as short as by either of the proposed direct Manchester and London Railways. It will also establish the shortest direct communication between Derby and London, Sheffield and London, and between all the towns on the North Midland Railway and London. The Manchester, Derby, and Rugby Railway will open a direct communication between Manchester and Derby, and will consider ably shorten the distance between Manchester and Nottingham and Manchester and Leicester. The line ftom Derby to Rugby will establish the direct communica tion from that town to London, which has been so long considered desirable by the inhabitants. The same will apply to Sheffield when the Sheffield and Chester field branch of the North Midland Railway is made. The support of the London and Birmingham, the North Midland, and Manchester, Buxton, and Midland Railways, may be expected for this line. A report on the line by one of the most eminent engineers of the day is iii course of preparation, after which a detailed prospectus, with the names of a most powerful directory, together with the amount of capital, &c., will be published. In the meantime com munications may be addressed to the Company's Solicitor, T. G. BREWER, Esq., 13, Gray's Inn-square. LANCASHIRE and NORTH YORKSHIRE RAILWAY.

The Lords met at Four o'clock. The royal assent was given, by Commission, to seve ral Bills. The Earl of BESBOROUGH drew the attention of their Lordships to the evidence which had been given before the Committee appointed to inquire into the petition al leging fraud against the promoters of the Dublin and Galway Railway Bill, with a view to promoting a prose cution against one of the witnesses for perjury. Lords CAMPBELL and COTTENBAM thought there would be great difficulty in conducting the prosecution to a satisfactory termination. Lord MONTEAGLE and the LORD CHANCELLOR thought the House ought to proceed against the individual, and eventually, on the suggestion of the Earl of BESBOROUGH, the matter was referred to a Select Committee. The Merchant Seamen's Bill was committed pro forind. In answer to a question from Lord BEAUMONT, the Easl of ABERDEEN went into a lengthened statement relative to the affairs of Greece. He admitted that the present state of Greece was anything but tranquil and orderly, but still the excesses said to have been-com mitted on the frontiers had been grossly exag. gerated. Ile gave such advice to M. COLLETTI as he thought prudent and useful, and he did not at present feel called upon to interfere further. It was un true that the Greek Government had encouraged in cursions across the Turkish frontier, and the supposi tion that a bankrupt State like Greece anticipated going to war with Turkey, was most absurd. It was also untrue to say that the English interests had declined in Greece. There were English, French, and Russian parties in that country—the great misfortune was, that there was no Greek party. The Coal Trade of London Bill was read a second time. After a short discussion, in which the Marquis of LONDONDERRY, the Earl of DALIIOUSIE, and the Marquis of WESTMINSIER took part, The Lunatics Bill was read a third time and passed. The other Bills on the table were advanced a stage, and the House adjourned. The Commons met at Four. A new writ was moved fur for Kirkcudbrig h t, in the room of Mr. MURRAY, deceased. Mr. TUFNELL gave notice that Lord JOHN RUSSELL would move for a return of the Bills which had passed during the present Session. The reports of the Committee on Ways and Means, and of the Committee of Supply, were respectively brought tip. On the order of the day being read for bringing up the report ou the Brazil Slave 'Trade Treaty Bill, Mr. M. GIBSON said he oomidered the measure calcu lated to excite hostility and resentment ag..dnst this country, and he wished to know whether any remon strances had been addressed by the Brazilian Govern ment to the British Government on the subject, and if so, whether they would be communicated to the House. Sir R. PEEL assured the Honourable Gentleman there was nothing in the present treaty at variance with inter national law. It merely recognised a principle already incorporated in previous treaties and acted on by other nations. After a few remarks from Mr. HUTT and Captain PECHELL, the report was brought up and the Bill ordered to be read a third time this day. After several other measures had passed through their respective stages, the CHANCELLOR of the Ex- CHEQUER moved that an Address be presented to the Crown, requesting the grant of 20,0004 in aid of the , sufferers by the late fires in Quebec. The motion was affreed to, without opposition, and shortly afterwards the [louse adjourned. In four or rive papers on the " Oregon" questiol, we have, from time to time, endeavoured to lay bt fore our readers a general outline of the incidental points con nected with its principal bearings. On the last occasion of our adverting to the same Yery important subject we undertook to demonstrate the unsoundness and futility of the title set up by the United States on every one of the grounds upon which it had been asserted and argued by Mr. GREENHOW—by far the ablest champion which that title has yet found, and himself a salaried servant of one of the civil departments of the American Government. Want of room and the press of more urgent matters have since combined to prevent us from recurring to, or fulfilling our pledge. But we read in The Journal (a Washington paper, generally understood to be the official organ of the President's party and opinions) the following pas sage ; and we find it so apropos for our purpose of refu tation, that we will, on the first occasion that offers to us, take each of the several assumptions that we print below in italics, and prove, by incontrovertible facts and docu ments, the absolute and utter falsehood of such assump tion. We may, then, feel disposed to inquire what must be the condition of moral feeling among the readers and supporters of a "Journal" which can wilfully propagate such gross misstatements and deliberately attempt to deceive and irritate the public mind of America into hostile excitement upon them ? We must entreat our readers not to lose sight of the grave and malicious of fence thus perpetrated, in the merriment which we may be tempted to indulge in by the bombastic egotism of this arbiter of the disputes of nations. "As the property of the United States has been fully proved and rightfully attached, bold must be the Executive, and Anti- American must be that Cabinet officer who would draw, or recommend the drawing, of the American Boundary Line below the line of the Russian American Settlement (54 deg. 40 min.), and thereby give the British Government an out let, even, to the Western Ocean. From 42 deg. to 54 deg. 40 min. N. latitude, the United States by discovery, by occu pancy acknowledged on the art of Great Britain, by the .p French cession of 1803, and by the Spanish cession of 1819, IT IS THE OWNER." Some men, it is said, have greatness thrustupon them; and of this class we presume that the present Chan cellor of the Exchequer—we have had, ere now, to make the same remark of a Comptroller of the Exche quer—is one of the most astonishing individuals. He fills—and not for the first time in his life—that exalted and responsible office which has, ever since the Revela tion, been assumed to indicate the highest class of official ability, financial knowledge, and general statesmanship. His robe is a mantle which has clothed, in succession, the shoulders of men who have rendered their names an illus'rious bequest to posterity. Without distinction of party, it has ever been one of the most honourable ele vations that an English gentleman could attain to in the service of his country. To exemplify this fact would be to name almost every great political leader who has appeared in Parliament during that interval. Nor is this sort of general rule marred by such occasional exceptions as have been afterwards pitch-forked into the House of Lords—in times past, and in our own espe cially—by titles which it might seem invidious here to recapitulate. Whether or not Mr. GOULBURN is des tii.ed to increase the number of these anomalies we do not purpose now to inquire. But we wish to show how unworthy sentiments may be avowed in the House of Commons, by so high an officer of the Crown, with perfect impunity in the year 1845. Mr. FIELDEN brought under the notice of the QUEEN'S Ministers and of the House the vexatious, unjust, and arbitrary usage which he had received under the operation of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Income-tax Act. The house in which he was himself a partner, FIELDEN, Brothers, had been assessed for profits at the capricious valuation or exactly 12,0001. a-year—not, for aught that appears to the contrary, that the assumption might not have been made with just as much probability, that these profits were 8,2001., or 9,150 L, or 10,6701., or 11,7604, or 12,0001. a year. But the local " Commis sioners," or " Assessors," or by whatever other name the people are called who do the dirty work of the Paul- Pry machinery created under this odious and inquisito rial statute, preferred to take the amount of 12,0001. in the fist instance—as a round number, we suppose. Mr. FIELDEN and his partners protested and appealed against this assessment of income, and offered to produce their books to the Commissioners, and proceeded to show that for the year over which the assessments demanded ex tended, they, so far from realising profits, had, in fact, sustained large losses on the balance of the year's trans actions. Another notice was served, accompanied with an intimation, in the usual Imperative style, that it must be paid forthwith. Again•the Messrs. FIELDEN remon strated ; and what was the reply ? That they were im mediately served with notice of assessment, increased in the proportion of exactly 100 per cent. ; that is to say, on an assumed income of 24,000/. per annum. Very arbitrary—very insolent, beyond all question—in the officers, whoever they were, who presumed to try so un authorised and impertinent an experiment en the easi ness or the purse-strings of the Messrs. FIELDEN. Doubtless there was the same excuse for this, as for the original assessment—that 24,000/. was " a round number." But there was even less defence to be made for this second assessment ; and we do trust that the Messrs. FIELDEN will not relax their ex ertions till they discover, and pursue to punish ment (if any punishment have been reserved by our constitutional Premier for such an offence, al though we suspect the common law would not be slow to deal with it as a conspiracy to defraud), the authors o this gratuitous impertinence. Like most of those over-a, alous and offewive subaltern authorities who are called " Jacks in office," they grew alarmed the instant they discovered that these gentlemen were in earnest in their resolution to resist this unheard-of and most dis graceful attempt at extortion, and when Exchequer pro ceases were issued against the firm, they were issued for the assessment, lid on the 24,0001., but, strange to say, for the original one on the 12,0001. Can any fact more clearly demonstrate than this the arbitrary, despotic system, on which the commissioners and surveyors fabri cate their assessments of income derived from profits on trade ? And yet it is to these people that Sir ROBERT PEEL has the serene assurance to refer the tax payers for redress, forsooth, who may feel themselves aggrieved by over assessments I It is almost as bad as constituting a Board of Officials for the assessment and levy of a tax ; pa) ing them by a per centage on the aggregate product of that tax realised through their devices and exertions ; and then intimating to the over-charged tax-payer that he will always be secure of redress at the hands of the same disinterested functionaries. The Exchequer pro cesses were enforced against the Messrs. FIELDER, they still refused, on the principle of " no profits realised," to pay ; and chattels and goods, their property, were taken and sold in execution by the QUEEN'S officers, to the amount of the claim of the Crown. This is, shortly, the grievance of which Mr. FIELDER complained in the House of Commons. In replying to his speech, the Chancellor of the Exchequer was betrayed into an ob • nervation which we trust will not be lightly forgotten by the British public. The difficulty in which Mr. FIEL- DEN found himself, quoth Mr. Got:minim, " would not have arisen, if the Hon. Gentleman had shown a hale less of that 131itish viy tue which had led him to resist, with more than ordinary firmness, what he considered an im proper intrusion into his private affairs." This " sneer," as Mr. 11Awts well called it, at " Bri- tish virtue," was uttered with singularly bad taste in reference to Mr. FIELDEN, than whom a. man of higher probity in private life, or of purer purpose in his public career, is not to be teund within the walls cfif the House of Commons. The architect of his own fortune, and himself the centre and mover of an enormous amount of industrial labour, in the very district which has wit nessed his gradual advance from the position of a simple artisan to the head of one of those enormous private establishments which are the wonder of their age and country, Mr. FIELDEN has long acquired, and enjoys, unclhillengtd, an enviable reputation for his kindness, his charity, his liberality, and enterprise. To have "re sisted," as he has done, the assessment of the Income tax Commissioner, on the principle incorporated in words, though not, it should seem, in spirit, into the very Act of Parliament under which that assessment was made out, and to have risked and suffered, too, so costly a sacrifice of property as he has endured in contesting a demand which, either in its original or its subsequent shape—as charged on an income of 12,000/., or one of 24..0001.—must have been iniquitous and illegal—was, indecd, a reach of " British virtue " such as an over pensi, fled official might challenge, in a tone of disparage ment the more sarcastic from the consciousness, perhaps ; of inability to imitate it. But is this "Briti s h virtue expounded by him who reflects upon it even, as having been elicited by " what the party considered an im proper intrusion into his private affairs "—is this con stitutional principle to be twitted and mocked at, in that House of Commons which is to this day conse crati d by the memory of that HAMPDEN whose resist ance to tho payment of an illegal exaction for ship-money was the first step taken in the great work of consolidating the rights and liberties of Englishmen, in respect of the limitations of their liability to taxation, on their present broad and constitutional bases ? Let us hope that this ill , timed sneer Hiil arouse, even at this late hour, the Common, t.. a sense of their duty to their constituency-_ that it may teach them haw little they can be justified in trusting to the pledges or the promises of a Govern ment particularly with .regard to: ale, duration of so odious but productive an impost —one of whose chief offiers can thus venture to ridicule a principle of action, which our fathers not only recognised, but were prepared at all times to vener.ite as " British virtue." We do not permit ourselves to imagine for a moment that Mr. FIELDER will be cajoled by the hollow and meanless civilities of Sir ROBERT PEEL (who probably perceived the slip which his "managing man" had made) into the abandon= nt of that claim for redress which he is as suredly able to establish in this case ; or forego the satis faction of discovering on what principle his assessment was raised from one upon 12.0001. to an ass , ;ssinent on 24,000 L ; and again dropped from 24,000/. to 12,000/. ? The Mad: id journals of the 24th and 25th have arrived. The ileraldo advocates the marriage of the Infante Don HENRY with the QUEEN, and states that a letter from Ma laga, of the 16th, mentioned the fact that a courier had ar rived there, with au order fur Don HENRY to repair imme diately to Bilboa. The Glob() and the Tiempo both urge upon the Government to follow the example of Brazil, and to retaliate on England fur her exclusion of Spanish sugars, contrary to the just re clamations of the Duke of SOTOMAYOR. Accoiding to the Castellano, the only object of the QUEEN'BI journey to the Basque provinces is to meet the Duke and Duchess of NEsioun.s. El Clamor states positively that the Count of MONTE MOLIN, the son of Don Cant.os, had received passports for Behobia, close to the Spanish frontier, and within a quarter of an hour's walk of Irun. According to El Espectador some modification was likely to take place in the Ministry—tianvAEz, however, would still remain at the head of affairs. The QUEEN reached Saragossa on the 23d, and would re main there a week. An extensive conspiracy has been discovered at Malaga, according to La Esperanza, and several arrests bad taken place in consequence. The conspiracy originated in the pro vincial regiment of Jaen, the officers of which wished to bring about a Progressista pronunciamento. The Three per Cents., on the 24th, closed at 29 for cash and 29i at sixty days. The other securities were not quoted. The 25th being the feast of St. Jago, the patron saint of Spain, there was no Bourse on that day. We have received the Paris Papers of Wednesday, that is to say, the Debces, the Presse, and the Courrier Francois, these being the only papers published on that morning, in consequence of the celebration of the 15th anniversary of the revolution of July the day before. These papers are filled with descriptions of the concerts and balls, and fireworks and illuminations, of the day before. Fortunately the evening was fine, and the people therefore thoroughly enjoyed them selves. The KING was present at the concert monstre in the Tuileries gard, ns. We are rejoiced to learn that he looked "hearty and well." The Presse, which on such a subject may be considered as an authority, states that the object of the QUEEN'S visit to the 13asque provinces is to endeavour to procure a settle ment of the much vexed question of the fueros, a question which it states " may one day call forth grave discussions." The Duke and Duchess DE NEMOURS were at Gueret on the 27th, and set out the next day for Limoges. Through out their progress they have been received in the most en thusiastic manner. Admiral Baron LA SussE is named inspector of the ships of the line at Brest and Rochefort. The Toulonnais quotes a report from Admiral TURPIN, Commander of the French naval station in the Levant, addressed to the .Minister of Marine, in which the Admiral expresses his regret that the commercial interceurse be tween France and Patras, which is one of the most im portant of the Greek ports, has been suffered to dwindle away to perfect insignificance, while between seventy and eighty British ships arrive and depart every year. Some years back, the report says, the whole of the trade was carried on in French bottoms. The same paper contains the following news from Algiers, to the 20th ult. : " Affairs seem to have taken a serious turn in the east (of Algeria). For some days past troops have been moving it. that direction. Six battalions of infantry have embarked for Dellvs. The cavalry and artillery proceed by land. The brigade, under the command of General Gentil, had sonic sharp work with the enemy on the 18th ; however. they finally routed them ; but it appears that Ben-Kassem bad caused it to be-announced in the interior that he had gained the victory, and this had created great enthusiasm among the Kabyle tribes of the mountains near Bougie. The cause of the present move towards Dellys is owing to Ge neral Gentil's having informed the Governor that the enemy had received considerable reinforcements, and that the in surrection daily gained ground, and, consequently, that he found the small brigade under his orders insufficient for the protection of the allied tribes encamped before Dellvs. It is generally believed that Abd• el-Kader bad promised Ben- Kassem that lie would come into Kabylia, but the Kabyles are too jealous of their independence voluntarily to take a master, except in the case of urgent danger." The Paris Bourse was again animated on Wednesday, the Share market in particular. Fresh vigour appeared to have been imparted to the speculations in those securities. The improvements in the Funds are also somewhat important. The Three per Cents. closed at 83f. 80c. ; the New Loan, at 84f. 10c; the Five per Cents. at 121 f. 90c.; Orleans Rail road Shares, 1,235 f. ; Rouen, 1,0771. 50c ; Vierzon, 7871. 50e.; Havre, 9001.; Avignon, 1,0351. ; Basle, 270 f.; Spanish Domestic Debt, 29k..

We are confident that our readers will peruse, with much satisfaction, the speech of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, last night, in moving an address to her Majesty praying her Majesty to recommend the appro priation, of the sum of 20,0001. to the relief of our suffering fellow-cc untrymen—victims of the two dis astrot4 cooff sgratlons that have recently desolatrd Quebe. The terms of sympathy in which the Right lion. Gentleman introduced the motion to the House, and the unanimous affirmative with which his appeal wa3 respondi d to, were honourable to all parties. We sincerely trust that such an exhibition of condolence, and so munificent a contribution to the private funds already subscribed for the relief of this large body of houseless, and homeless, and ruin,•d outcasts, will cement the reciprocal affections of the colonists, and their com patriots of the mother country in indissoluble bonds of good will and respect.

Atter the speeches several songs and duets were sung by Mrs. Adams, Mr. Shoubridge, and Mr. Collet, and there were also several instrumental performers. The company in the ball did not exceed 120 in number ; but they were all of a must respect able class, very quiet and orderly, and seemed most thoroughly to enter into the spirit of the proceeding.. At the close a vote of e..anks was awarded to Mr. G. '1 hump son, and he havie g returned thanks, the meeting then separated.

The following letter of thanks has been addressed to the Editor of the Morning Advertiser by the recent Deputation from the Licensed Victuallers of Ireland : TO DR. SHERIDAN. AND THE INCORPORATED SOCIETY OF LICENSED VICTUALLERS OF LONDON. FROM STEPHEN Fox DICKSON, ON BEHALF OF HIMSELF AND THE LICENSED VICTUALLERS OF IRELAND, FOR THEIR RIND ATTENTION AND DISTINGUISHED SERVICES TO THE INTERESTS OF THE LICENSED VICTUALLERS OF IRELAND. Dear Sir, and Esteemed Friends,—After the consumma tion to so great an extent of the claims and desires of tke Licensed Victuallers of Ireland u is now effected by the passing of the Act 8 and 9 Victoria, which is now the law of the land, restoring to 13,000 Irish traders their trade rights, I feel that I should be guilty of a total derelic t on of duty to you and to those proved friends, the Licensed Victuallers of London, were I to omit offering to you and to them, on behalf of myself and the Licensed Victuallers of Ireland, our best thanks. Indeed, from the magnitude of the cue, embracing the trade rights of 13,000 Itish establish ments, with capital invested to the extent of some millions of money, and the protracted seven )ears ' duration of struggle for what is now effected by this new Act of Parliament, I feel that I best discharge my duty by adverting in a brief narrative to some of the facts which so demand from the Irish traders a letter of thanks to our English friends. I have the honour to he one of those that took a most active part in this struggle for the rights of the Irish traders, and who called to their aid the rights and privileges enjoyed by their fellow-traders of England, on the terms of the Treaty of Union between Great Britain and Ireland for maintaining a complete identification of Irish with British trade rights ; and I am happy to say that those views have been uniformly regarded with favour by the several and respective noblemen and gentlemen who presided in the Government of Ireland, as well as by the most distinguished professional gentlemen whom we had occa sion to consult on points of law to which the Irish traders were driven by the resistance of their claims by Parliament, though now conceded. On the refusal of the claims of the Irish traders by the Legis lature, the advocate of the legal rights of the Irish trader, ir respective of legislation, fell back, as was natural, upon the statutes in existense, and on the Treaty of Union between Great . Britain and Ireland, and established a case not only protective of the trade right to the Irish traders, but unanswerably prov ing that as some 3,753,0001. more, had since January 1, 1801, been levied on these very traders in Ireland, for their licenses than on the same number of their fellow traders of England or -cotland in 45 years, and this in violatiOn of the 6th and 7th articles of the Union between Great Britain and Ireland, there was an additional grievance and claim established for the Irish traders. The proceedings taken at law by the Irish traders in the case of '‘ McKenna v. Pope," to have the judgment of the House of Lords, upon the validity of their claim to their trade right, to continue to sell their coffees, team, &c., notwithstanding the 3d sections of the 6 and 7 Wm. IV., c. 3S, led to my coming to London early in this session of Parliament, with the view of forwarding the cause by devoting my services to attendance on the professional gen tlemen engaged in conducting the writ of error Twirling before li•tuse of Lords, a...d communicating to the Irish traders and merchants circumstances as they arose, to effect which it , became desirable that the agency of a public newspaper should be afforded, as through such only could the whole of the traders J 1 Ireland be duly made acquainted with the proceedings in what so nearly concerned them. I had the hon.#ur of knowing Dr. Jordan Lynch, of Farringdon, to be a high-minded citizen, and favourable to the identification of It eland with England in every right and privilege. I mentioned to that gentleman my desire to be introduced to some gentleman connected with the London press who would afford me the desired facilities of so communicating, through his journal, to the Irish traders and others. The Doctor asked vie if I had applied to Doctor Sheridan, who edits the Morning Advertiser, to which I replied that I had not the honour of being introduced to that eentleman. Doctor Lynch rejoined, lam persuaded, Dickson, that no other introduction will be found necessary than for yourself to go and mike the application to ' Doctor Sheridan ;' but if my assistance should be deemed of any u=e, it will be at your service, and the service of Ireland." On that I proceeded, waited upon Dr. Sheridan, and was re ceived with that frank courtesy which even anticipated my wishes. At this much-desired interview I narrated the circum stances which constrained me to solicit such favours, and handed to him some of my works, as a sort of credential or proof of my efforts to be useful. The Doctor at once forbade me making any apology, stating that he felt much pleased at my having waited on him, whereby I afforded him an opportunity of perhaps serving the Irish traders; at all events, of endeavouring to do so. It was to him pleasure, instead of a trou ble. to place whatever I desired on behalf of the Irish traders in the columns of his journal. Doctor Sheridan in sisted that I should name a day and time when it would be con venient for me to be introduced to the Committee of the Li censed Victual!ers' Incorporated Society of Loudon. 1 felt and appreciated the favourable opportunity thus presented of serving my country. I availed myself with avidity of the fa vours offered—filling a large space in the Morning Advertiser, from time to time, without any expense, and enjoying the hos pitality of Dr. Sheridan and the Licensed Victuallers of London. There is one circumstance which occurred in your aid in this struggle of the Irish traders for their trade rights, which appears to me to deserve particularly to be noticed. By the 55 Gee. 111, c. 19, and the 6 Geo. IV, c. 118, teas and coffees are expressly mentioned as of the good wares and merchandise in the Irish petty chapman's license, and on taking the opinion of some of the most emi nent counsel of the bar of England and Ireland, they agreed that under the protection of this license the licensed vic tuallers of In land could carry on the trade of selling teas, cof fees, &c., irrespective of the excise; but the Irish should have to pay to the Board of Stamps 21. 2s. per year for this license, while their fellow-tradesmen of England and Scotland had theirs from the excise on the payment of lls. sp. a year only. Yet the trade right being secured to the Irish traders, resistance was at an end, and the grievances of the Irish traders became re duced to the question of whether the Irish should be obliged to pay a tax of 21. 2s. per year for license under the stamps to sell tea, &c., whilst the traders of England and Scotland had theirs for I Is. 6 1 , d. per year? This was manifestly too outrageous to be defended, as es clearly demonstrated and published in your journal of the 241 of June, with the opinions of the eminent counsel ; and on the 9th of July, 1845, the Government brought into the House of Commons the new Bill now an Act of Parliament, expressly repealing these restrictions. During all this time I had the honour of receiving the aid and energetic services of Edward Grogan, Esq., M.P., David '.Robert Ross, Esq., M. P., and Morgan J o h n O'Con nell, Esq., M.P., and several other Members of Parliament, who took deep interest in the sufferings of the Irish traders, and laboured to effect the relief now afforded by the pass. itig of the Victoria Act, which is now law. All these circumstances are eminently ealsulated to excite in Irish !muds gratifying assurances that the British people and the Imperial Parliament will join in affording relief to proved Irish grievances, without regarding or being contr o ll e d by pre viously expressed opinions. As the Irish traders only asked for an identification in rights and privileges, which is now conceded, it is difficult to see why the Government should hesitate to provide by Act of Parliament that every statute upon each respective matter or subject in England should be made to extend to and embrace the same or like subject or matter in Scotland and Ireland, whereby a perfect identifica tion and interpretation of the laws. rights, and privileges of the English would be secured to Ireland and the Irish people. The Treaty of Union, if dt is to be maintained, recognised a claim which the Irish have purchased by giving up their own Parliament, for the strength of the empire generally. I beg again to repeat to you. Gentlemen, on behalf of myself and the Licensed Victuallers of Ireland, my best thanks, and I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your most humble and obedient servant, STEPHEN DICKSON. 59, Millbank-street, Westminster, London, and 52, Townsend-street, Dublin, July, 1845. Upon receiving this address, Dr. SHERIDAN expressed him self to the deputation as follows:—" My friend Dickson and Gentlemen,—l receive with profound emotion this most gratifying testimony of your feelings towards the licensed victuallers of London and myself ; but in limine allow use to correct a little inaccuracy in the address of this letter in placing the editor's name before that of the licensed victuallers of London, whose officer he is. I regret that the haste in cidental to the important claims upon your attention, and the limited time, I might indeed say suddenness of your intention being conveyed to me, should have prevented me from even acquainting any Governor, and the more influeniial members of the Committee and incorporation of your grateful and generous purpose, or I am sure they would be now present to receive, in a more suitable manner than I can, this proud and glorious tribute, not to them and me only, but to the irre sistible lower of the public press when applied to the general interests of man, and directed by the unerring skill of truth and justice. Mr. Dickson and gentlemen, for myself I most cordially and heartily thank you, and shall esteem it the most glorious triumph an humble citizen like myself can ac complish, if I even effectively aid, in carrying that great sug gestion, to identify, in a spirit of co-operation, the trading, industrial, and honest interests, not of England and Ireland only, but of the world. Should Ihe so fortunate as to aid in the achievement of this object, it is not the most refractory or insubordinate man in Ireland, or in the world, even though he were the most powerful, that dared to raise his voice for a re peal of the Union—for my union would be the union of man in one bond of universal brotherhood. This would be my in carnation of the three cardinal virtues—FAlTH, 11( ez, and CHARITY. AUDACIOUS IMPUDENCE !--An accredited Cor respondent informs us, that at a recent dejeuner, a modest, but not very retiring gentleman conneeted with the press, whose name was —. was asked whether he was any relative of a celebrated character who bore the same name, when the mode:t man s id , "I do not know,—l believe he was descended from a spurious or collateral branch of mine —the original family ; but the must celebrated man of that name has now the honour of addressing you." One of the most distinguished guests of this distinyud party, excited by such presumption, immediately said, " There is certainly some truth in that, for the man before you now is incalculably ' the most notorious of the name at present in existence 1" THEATRE ROYAL, DuimiN.—Mr. Baile's opera of The Enchantress, which was produt ed on Monday night for the benefit of Mr. Harrison, was repeated on Tuesday evening with the most complete success ; after which a one-act piece, founded on the celebrated Curtain Lectures of Mrs. Caudle, was performed.

The private accounts which have been received from the East Indies and China are somewhat of a more flattering character than those published in the public journals. We are assured that a steadily increasing demand existed at the date of the latest advices for British manufactured goods. The notification which had been received out from hence, of the starting of companies to establish railways in India, had taken the natives by surprise. The more wealthy merchants of the various Presidencies of India were most ready to take an interest in what may be called a bold and novel enter prise. We have every reason to believe that more than the shares reserved for the natives of India will be required, as, notwithstanding the Court of Directors of the East India Company have fairly set the difficulties which they believe to exist before the public here, there is not a doubt entertained by practical :nen in India, that such difficulties will be most easily overcome. The prospect or rapid communication between the various presidencies of India had afforded a vast degree of satisfaction to all those interested in trade and commerce. But, of course, the Directors Hof the East India Company, the Board of Control, and the Go vernsr-General will receive the report of the eminent en gineer who has been deputed to survey the country , ere any final opinion shall be expressed as to the practicability of the construction of railways in British India. There were not any arrivals in the City to-day of im portance. The Consul Market is rather more firm to-day, the price for the Account being 98% 3 / 4 , and for Money, 98% %. South Sea Stock has been quoted at 113, the Government brokers continuing their purchases in them. Bank Stock is a shade higher. The other Bonds remain much the same as yesterday. Not much has been transacted in the Foreign Funds to day. Peruvian Bonds have fluctuated baween 36 and 37 ; Portuguese Converted from 65% to 65; Spanish Actives from 27 to 26%; and the Dutch Four per Cents. from 99% to 99%. The settlement of the account in the Railway Share Market is progressing, and, all things considered, satisfac torily. The prices were pretty firm this morning. ONE CLOSING PRICES OF B/tITISII FUNDS.
