This railway is projected for the purpose of connectim r the im portant commercial town of Newry with its shipping port and har bour, Warrenpeint, well known as being one of the 1 cost beau tillil and romantic watering-places, as well as ono of the rarest and beet harbours is the north of Ireland. The entire leng Ur of rail way, commenciug at or near the proposed terminus of t lee Newry and Enneakillen Railway, to which this line will be an important adjunct, and the station of the Dublin and Belfast .Tuns tion Rail way, In the town of Newry, and terminating at the Qtta: r of War renpolnt, will not exceed sixty statute miles. To those a cauainted with this highly-favoured locality, and who aware of the great traffic already existing between Newry and Warrenpoin I, it must be apparent that the proposed railway svi rove one of the most remunerative lines hitherto projected. A liminary se trvey ha s already been made, from which it:appe that there, are no engineering difficulties, the whole- line- being - almost a perfect level along the margin of the Newry river; and as the line will not interfere with any ornamental grounds, and the coot of the laud required be eomparatively small, the expense of con struction will be much below the average. The xnaterials for construetion ere cheap, abundant, and convenient, and every facility and support for carrying out the proposed i-a ilway is confidently expected from the landed proprietors along the line. The Bay of Carlingford, in which Warrenpoint is situated, airo.rdu an ac commodation for maritime traffic unsurpassed by any other harbour in Ireland, and as two yowerthl and well-appointed steamers are constantly employed between /his place and Liverpool, convey ing annually about fifty-five thousand passengers, besides stock and merchandise, all of which will pass along this lino, some idea may be termed of the pi:ospereus results wl licit must attend the undertaking. And as railway intercourse will ere long be opened up from the town of Newry ,to the port of Sligo, the proposed Newry and Warrenpoint naa2way will complete the chat* of direct communication from Landon by Liverpool e1 . ."ul argument to to the west coast, and add another po those already existing for making Warrenpoint the Lliall-packet sta tion for the north and west of Ireland, by which this tuao . ..ertaKing will become ens of national interest. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. T ATTERSALL'S.—YESTERD AT . The subscription-room was thronged to excess until a late hour, but business, apart from the check it received from the Old England affair, of which we give a zeparate notice underneath, progressed languidly, and at such contradictory prices, that it was with no small difficulty we ascertained the actual state of the betting. We have reason, however, to be lieve that the subjoined quotations correctly represent the posi tion of the various favourites at the close, and from these it will be gathered that, of the first four, The Libel alone underwent any material change; his partisans were numerous, and the layers getting shy as the desire to "get on " became more evident ; he ultimately took a decided call of Alarm, and finishing almost, if not absolutely, as good a favourite as Weatherbit. The last mentioned and the crack were backed in various quarters, but left off with layers of the quoted odds. Pantasa and Pam, and Doleful, were severally backed at prices averaging those returned, nor was Old Eng land by any means so much out of favour as the bet of 2,500 to 100, laid to Mr. Gully, would seem to indicate-22 to 1 was taken two or three times, and would have been taken again at the break up. Fuzbos was very much fancied, and from the outsiders we may select Annandale as having been most gene rally in favour; his stable companion, Mentor, on the strength of a report that he was coughing, receded several points. A few bets were laid on the Oaks and Craven Stakes, but without eliciting any feature worthy of especial notice. The latest prices were as follow : Derby, May 24, 1845, PARIS AND LYONS RAILWAY. (LAFITTE'S COMPANT.) Notice iv hereby given, that all the Shares nnappliod for by the original holders have been allotted to other parties, and the whole ca pital required by the French Government, amouating to 200,000,000 f.

IEVERN VALE RAILWAY COMPANY, connecting NORTH and SOUTH WALES with CHESTER, BIRKENHEAD, LIVERPOOL, and the GREAT MANUFAC TURING TOWNS of the NORTH of ENGLAND. Capital, X 500,000, in 10,000 Shares of X5O each. Deposit, £2 15s. per Share. The line of railway intended to he formed by this Company will open a communication from the heart of North, and also of South Wales, with Oswestry, Marcham, Chester, Birkenhead, Liverpool, and the great manufacturing towns of the North of Eng-, land ; and the northern portion of the principality will, by means of the proposed lino uniting Shrewsbury with the Monmouth and Hereford Railway, be afforded a facility of intercourse by railway with Bristol and the south-western and western districts of the kingdom. The line will commence at the populous and rapidly-increasing town of Newtown, in Montgomeryshire (the Manchester of North Wales), and, following the course of the River Severn, will pass to the town of Welshpool, and again continuing the course of the river to Llay-nnech, proceed to Oswestry, in the county of Salop, there forming a junction with the Shrewsbury and Merecham Railway, give direct access by this improved system of intercommunication to Chester and the ports of Birkenhead and Liverpool, and to Manches ter, the metropolis of the manufacturing districts of the country ; and by the lines diverging from that town to the other commercial and manufacturing towns of Bic North. The intended railway will, in virtue of an arrangement to be made with the proprietors of the eastern branch of the Monmouthshire Canal, based upon a fair remuneration to that Company, follow the course of their navigation ; and, in the event of the Ellesmere and Chester Canal Company having the authority of Parliament, and converting their canal into a railway, this undertaking will terminate at Llany - mynech, and by a junction there with the Ellesmere and Chester Railway, when formed to that point, complete the proposed line to Oswestry. The prospectus, with the names of the Provisional Committee, will be issued early in the ensuing week ; in the interim, applications may be addressed to the solicitors, James Henry Frederick Lewis, Esq., 28, Essex-street, Strand, London ; and John Owens, Esq., I New Town, Montgomeryshire.

Some idea of this traffic may be formed from the number of publ4 l conveyances plying between Newry and Warrenpoint, front returns taken with great accuracy during the last month, by whick it ap pears that sixty public cars, carrying usually four persons each, run daily between those towns.

On Saturday last some strong remarks were made at Tatter sall's by Mr. Gully, the owner a Old England, a horse about to run for the Derby, respecting the conduct of one gentleman who had been betting largely against him, at odds beyond the market price, which ended in Mr. Gully giving notice to the party in question, that he should call upon him to stake to the amount of the bets which had been laid, and which had been laid on Mr. Gully's account. To this the party challenged said he had no objection, however uncourteous he might think the demand. The amount referred to was said to exceed 20,0001., and the inference drawn from the remarks made was, that some unfair play had been resorted to, with respect to the horse, or this pertinacity in betting against him would not have been so remarkable. Yesterday the matter was brought forward in a more serious shape, and at a time when the rcom was exceedingly crowded. Mr. Gully, elevating him self on a chair, called the attention of the persons present while he performed, as he said, a very disagreeable duty to himself and the public, who had, as well as himself, invested large sums on Old England. It had struck him as extraordinary that when the current price of Old England was 20 to I in that room, a Mr. Hargreaves was betting largely against the horse at 30 and 25 to 1, and had on Friday or Saturday laid 12,0001. to 4001. against him. This had naturally created suspicion in his mind, following, as it did, the operations by the same party and his friends to an enormous extent. He was told that the cause assigned for the sup posed prejudice was that the horse would not start--that he had bad legs—had been fired—and, in fact, that he had not the slightest chance of winning. As he knew these assertions were without foundation, he naturally looked for some other cause, and the more especially when he had heard it whispered that those bets had been made for young John Day, than who, he believed, a more honourable or npright young man did not breathe, a character which was equally due to his father. Seeing that his horse was thus betted against as if he were dead, he determined at once to go to Danebury on Saturday night, if possible, to ascertain the cause. On arriving there he saw both John Days, senior and junior, who professed their utter ignorance of the cause of such a state of things ; but, from private information which he (Mr. G.) had received, he had no doubt of the delinquent, and at once not only com municated his suspicions to father and son, but produced such evidence as left no doubt on the subject. The person to whom he alluded was William Day, a younger son of Mr. John Day, who, with great reluctance, at last confessed that he had been tampered with ; that he had been told by Mr. Bloodsworth and Mr. Stebbings that, after the present Derby, his father was to retire, and his brother John was to take his place, while he, William, would be turned off. To this it was added, that large sums had been laid against Old England for his father, brother, and Mr. Gully, but he was to derive no advan tage. He was thus ultimately seduced to lay against the horse at Bath, to Mr. Wm. Stebbing's 35,0001. to 1,000/. Here Mr. Gully said he had intended to start Old England at Bath, and had no doubt he had been dosed to prevent s him from doing so. He was, in fact, as had been stated at the time, seised with the eholic. As a further argument to the young man, it was stated that odds had been laid agst his father's lot, to 3001. or 4001., which had no doubt gone to Danebury. lie was led to believe that a Mr. Bloodsworth, a friend of the family. was the original seducer, and he would ask, whether, under such circumstances, he was not called upon to bring the matter before them ?—( Hear, hear.) Having made some strong remarks on such conduct, in which a son had been trepanned into a plan for the ruin of his own father, he called upon the parties accused to come for ward and explain themselves. Mr. Hargreave at once responded to the call, and taking Mr. Gully's place, he averred unequivocally that he had laid against the horse to a large amount, from a conviction that on his merits he could not win. He had been called on to stake, and however uncourteous that call might have been, he had that day deposited twenty thousand pounds in the hands of a subscriber to that room, ready to cover any bets he had made ; while he had proclaimed his readiness to hedge with any person with whom he had betted, and to stake the difference. What he had done then, he should do again. He had always acted openly and fairly, and there had been no disguise en his part. He denied most emphatically that he had had any communication with Day, or any of his family. He had acted en his own impression, that Old England could not win. Mr. Gully—Did you not state that you had laid the odds against John Day's lot, to 3001. er 4001., which had gone to Danebury ? Mr. Hargreaves admitted that he had communicated to an other betting man, that he had laid the odds against John Day's lot to 400/. for a gentleman whom he then believed lived at Danebury, and this he did not feel called upon to make a secret. He repeated, however, that he had no communica tion with Mr. Bloodsworth or Mr. Stebbings, or with any member of Mr. Day's family, and felt not a little indignant at being attacked in the manner he had been by Mr. Gully; he had always acted fairly and " above board," and denied that any ground existed for connecting him with Mr. Bloodsworth and Mr. Stebbing. He betted against the horse from a con viction of his unworthiness, and would not take a thousand sovereigns to two on the horse and stand it. Mr. Stebbing then rose, and complained of the manner in which he had been thus dragged forward. It had been said that William Day had laid him 35,0001. to 1,0001. against Old England. This was totally false—he had not spoken to William Day for twelve months. The truth was that Mr. Bloodsworth, who he knew was on particularly intimate terms with John Day's family, had come to him, and told him that Old England was a bad horse, and upon his authority he had laid against him. He believed that Mr. Day, sen., was under obligations to Mr. Bloodsworth, and that therefore he was net likely to be deceived ; and whether he laid against the h orse f or a large or a small sum, he did not see why he should be attacked. Mr. Gully said, he believed it was true he had taken 35,000/. to 1,000/. of William Day, and it was not difficult to draw an inference from such a fact. Mr. Stebbing repeated that all he knew was through Mr. Bloodsworth, and he could only add, he was ready to cover any bets he had laid ; b u t h e t h ought the proper mode to ceed in this case wo u ld h ave been to bring him beforeptrhoe Stewards if he had done wrong. Mr. Gully—Who sent the express to Danebu ry? Mr. Stebbing—l did not — nor do I know anything about it. Here the matter dropped. Mr. Hargreaves then said he was ready to la 2,500 to 100 agst Old E ng l and and give a good man y Mr. Gully—l'll take it, and the bet ;as immediately booked to Mr. Haggerty of Manchester. We understand the subject is hereafter to be brought before the Stewards in a formal shape but at present the ch arge i s confined t o th e statement cf William Day who has been dis charged from his father's stables--it is just that all conclusive opinions should be reserved till Mr. Bloodsworth has the opportunity of being beard Applications for Shares in the usual form may be addressed to the Provisional Committee, at their Office, 103, Jerrnyn-street, St. James's ; and to Messrs.

The object which has for a long time occupied the attention of every railway proprietary whose line terminates near the metropolis, viz., the attainment of some point for their terminus situated more centrally, and with readier access to London travellers than their pre sent sites, appears now to he in course of completion. Two principal lines of railway, the south Western and goath Eastern, have proposed and intend to carry into effect extensions of their lines from the existing termini to the neighbourhood of the Waterloo and Ilungertbrd Bridges, and to this point the traffic from litirminghant and the North of England will also be enabled to pro ceed, through the contemplated extension of the West London Rail way, across the Thames to a junction with the Sonth Western Line. The perfect attainment of the object in view will, however, remain unaceemplished, so long as the terminating point is kept on the Beath side of the river ; since, although a considerable improvement as compared with the present positions will thereby be effected, still the station in the Waterloo-bridge -road is remote and inconvenient to the larger proportion of travellers, and the evils new se justly complained of will be far from completely obviated. It is with the view of supplying this deficiency that the promoters of the London Central Railway Terminus lay their project befbre the pibilo. They propose to provide means whereby the passenger car riages Nom every line in connexion with the metropolis, can be con veyed across the Thames to a general station erected in the innate bate vicinity of Charing-cross. For this purpose plans have been prepared, which have received the approval of the most eminent engineers, for carrying a double line of rails over the river, adjoining the now liungerford Suspension bridge, aid supported by a simple and inexpensive addition to the nresent erections of that structure. For the vast amount of traffic which will thus be brought to the Middlesex side of the river, it is intended to provide a central statisn of corresponding magnitude. The Company, therefore, purpose to undertake the execution of part of the embankment, according to the plan of the Government for embanking the Thames, for the distance lying between Waterloo and Ilungerford-bridges, and over part of the area thus obtained from the river, to erect a station of size sufficient to supply the purposes of every separate railway, and furnished with every requisite provision for the wants of the respective Companies and the convenience of their passengers. The property of the Com pany will extend through the whole frontage of the Adelphi-terrace, the present buildings of which, as well as those to be hereafter erected, will be admirably adapted for a series of splendid hotels. This project would have been before the public at an earlier period, Nut the projectors were desirous of obtaining the full concurrence of her Majesty's Commissioners for Metropolitan Improvements ; an 4 they are now enabled to state, that the plans have been laid before the Commissioners, and as far as relates to the embankment and terminus, have met with their decided approval. On the south side of the river the proposed railway will Join the several extension lines at their nearest point of approach to the Thames and to each other, and thus will constitute a leader into the heart of London for the Birmingham, South Western, litrighton, — and South Eastern lines, at present existing, as well as for the various proposed lines through Kent, and to Richmond and Staines, which will shortly be in course of construction. The Directors of several of the above-mentioned Companies have already expressed their ap probation of the undertaking ; but the advantages it offers are so great and obvious that there can be no doubt of the cordial co-opera tion of the managers and proprietors of the other lines, without ex ception. . _ The plan presents No features of difficulty, or involving the neces sity of any extraordinary expense. The ground to be occupied by tko station will, from Its peculiar character, be obtainable at a com paratively small cost ; and from estimates carethlly prepared it is proved that a capital of 500,000/. will be sufficient for the accomplish ment of every purpose in contemplation. This capital it is proposed to rain in 23,000 shares of 20/. each. In order to favour the multitudinous travellers for short distances erg of Landon, the toll charged to passengers for any station short of twenty miles ►ill be less than that required from those bound on more extended journeys, and who are more likely to be encumbered with luggage. An average of 2d. has been assumed upon the whole number estimated. From the traffic returns of the railways now completed, together with the increase to be derived from the lines at present before Par liament, it is estimated that the annual number of arrivals and de partures If passengers from their London termini, who will select the Central Station fir their landing point, will amount to 5,500,000 ; the gross receipts from whom, at a toll of 2d. each, will be 45,0101. per annum. From this amount a deduction of 20 per cent. for working expenses, &c. (Including the rental to the Proprietors of Hangerford bridge), will be amply sufficient, as the Company will have no need of locomotives., and therefore be freed from those items which occa sion the heaviest expenditure on other railways. This will leave a net profit of 36,0101. per annum for the tolls alone. To this must be added the profits that will be derived from the various wharfs and buildings, and from the proposed pier for steam-boats, amounting on the most moderato calculation to an annual rental of at least 15,0001. With this addition, the total returns will a►aount to somewhat mere than le per cent. on the capital required. The completion of every new railway, and the opening of every extension line or feeder to the existing railways, will produce a constant 'twee,o in the revenue of the proposed line, and promise to raise it most rapidly ti an impor tant rank as an investment for capital. The Provisional Committee have also taken into consideration a plan for extending the proposed Embankment and Railway from the great Central Station to some point nearer the City, and are deeply Impressed witk the great public advantages derivable from such an undertaking. This plan has been referred to the Engineer and Surveyors of the Company, whose report thereon may be expected in a short time, when the estimates of the additional expense, and other particulars, will be duly announced.

We confidently and positively assert that our system will effect a greater saving to the public In the article of dress, than has ever yet bees realised. The Establishment of SAMUEL, BROTHERS, is the first in the world which has originated the judicious plan to which psiblicity is now given —a plan which cannot fail to b e h a il e d with sta ' tiration because, while it realises the most sangui ne h o p es of the economist, will be a source of pride to its Inventors, based as it is on the most enlightened views, and conducted as it will be upon the most honourable. principles. We will now state in what the novelty consists; although simple in its details, it is most beneficial to the public in its operation, midis neither more nor less than this,—Every customer will be enabled to ascertain the value and quantity of material required for every variety of garrisent—each and every Cloth, Cassmere, Doeskin, &c. being marked in plain figures at the price per yard, such price being the same as would be charged upon the purchase of the material by wholesale. We shall explain to our patrons the exact quantity that will be necessary for the particular article of dress wanted, and we shall charge separately for the making and trimmings. This system, as a trial of its operation will abundantly demonstrate, will effect a saving of folly one-third of the expense of the articles re quired in Gentlemen's dress. The peculiar advantages of the system of SAMUEL, BROTHERS, may be practicably exemplified RS fOHOIV8:- The average quantity of Cloth fora Coat is 15( yin's, snppoee that selected be Bs. per yard, the material Would cost 145., our charge for making and trimmings would be 18s., thus a really geed serviceable Coat completed in the best style will be made to measure for 325. Again, suppose the Cloth selected to be 12s. per yard, tke material would cost 215., our charge Would ho 20s. for making and trimmings, and thus a first-rate Coat made to measure and com pleted in the beet style will be obtained for 41.., few, if any, charge less than 50s or 525. for the same article. Tke same saving will be effected in every description of Clothing. Our charge for making and trimming a Coat for Cloths under 10s. per yard is 18s. and for the higher price Cloths 20s. In quality of cloths, variety of patterns for Trousers—richness and novelty in designs for Vestings, we flatter ourselves that we have a stock that will please every beholder. Noblemen and Gentlemen on inspecting our mode of transacting business, will be astonished at the saving they may effect in their Liveries, in many instances nearly one-half. In order to give every satisfaction, we promise that should an article, after it has been paid for, not please, we will exchange it, or return the money without demur.

BLACKWELL and WILLIAMS'S newly-in vented PARAGON MATCH, a cheap, sate, and useful sub stitute for the Dangerous Congreve or Lucifer. Has no unpleasant smell, cannot be affected by the damp, is safe in the hands of children, and may be need with lees care than the old-fashioned match and tinder-box. The following testimonial, from amongst many others, will convey a faint idea of its merits to public pa tronage : " Polytechnic Institution. " I have examined the Paragon Match patented by Messrs. Black well and Williams, and find it to be a great improvement upon all that have been brought into the market. The Lucifer matchee hitherto sold are very liable to take fire from a very small amount of friction, and also from the application of a comparatively small degree of heat, while the Paragon matches will not Ignite under a temperature of between 300 deg. and 400 deg. of Fahr. The risk of accidental tires is thus very much diminished. " JOHN RYAN, M.D. L.L.D. " ROBERT LONOBOTTO34, Secrotary. 309, Regent-street, April, 1845."

The whole Is given by, and under the management ,of, the ac complished pianists, Mr. and Mrs. Schwab. Tait CORN-LAWS.—The most specific suggestion in Lord John Eusesll's multifarious address last night was on the corn-laws. The only addition he has made to the public stock of in formation on this subject is that he has descended from his Bs. fixed duty of 1841 to 45., or perhaps 58., or perhaps Gs. It is difficult to comprehend why his original preposition should he ea slightly cor rected far so doubtful a result. As his Lordship is now rather winning adherents than choosing a coarse, he may prefer to content himself with the least possible show of change. Let him, however, save himself the trouble of an exact decisiou of a point which orb. des tly costs so much labour. I'ecl will underbid him. " The Any will corns, th' inevitable day," when reel will make a clean holo caust of the corn-laws, *tiering up what the Irish Catholics call " an unqualified and uncontaminated gilt" to the free-traders. He will not do things by halves. Cannot Lord John Russell see this in time ? henceforth it is his fate to be behludhand in the market. While he Is haggling for his odd shillings, and thinking to allure the purchaser by the doubtthl tone of his denials, a more desperate and determined salesman interposes, and throws him out of the market. PATENT CARPET.—A patent has been obtained by Mr. Sierier, the sculptor, for manufacturing the above article by power, a process heretofore unattainable. It will entirely superseded handwcaving, and although we may deplore the loss of labour, yet we must feel at the same time every im provement is ef importance to the country in a national point of view. The old method required two persons to weave a Brussels carpet, and that an average of 30 yards per week was obtained from a loom ; by the patent process one attendant will make 200 yards per week without having to exert any labour more than to fill the shuttle with weft. THE GRAND POLISH FANCY, OR FULL-DRESS BALL. —The recurrence of a Polish fete is always productive of considerable sensation amongst the votaries of fashion. The splendour with which they are got up, and the seleet company which attend them, have placed them in the rank of the first reunions of the season. But the attractions of this year will give an additional eclat to this entertain ment, from the circumstance that the Lady Patronesses will honour it with the dresses in which they are to appear at the Palace, and the formation of various quadrilles, minuets , and Mazurkas These last are to be danced in the P o li s h national costume, and M, Juli engaged in composing som e new nnisie for this brilliant Occaeioi i i ell is //2 Monday afternoon. THE THEATRES, DRURY-LAIVE. Madame Anna Thillon made her re-appearance at this • tl ieatre last evening, for the irst time since her late severe in , 1 , sposition, and never did the Enchantress appear in better iv.iice or spirits, never did she warble more delightfully, never Lid she act more fascinatingly. On her appearance she was greeted with shouts of welcome, which she acknowledged in She most graceful manner ; and throughout the whole of the Vera she was rapturously applauded, and was called for at the c e inclusion as a matter of course. The house was crowded to s ffocation. Boxes, pit, and galleries, all were crammed, and wen standing-room in the slips was at a premium before the n'sing of the curtain. ADELPHI.

Mathews) to Gravesend, determines t• enjoy h ianself en garcon, and goes out to make a night of it, leaving 1. is clerk, Fizgig (Mr. Munyard), and his porter, in charge of ti le establishment. They, too, d e t erm i ne to en j oy themselves, ai bd accordingly Fizgig, having ordered in a dinner from the pLi trycook's, invites to the dinner his lady-love, Mrs. Moonily, a widow (ex ce ll ent l y acted b y M i ss Emma Hardin), and her fi iiend, Mi ss M a tild a J en k s, a would-be pru dish young la 3q ( whose primness, arising solely from the fact th it she has not " a young man " like her friend, w given with great humour by Miss E. Chaplin.) r, he dragoon forces himself upon the party, and is very soon ins called in office, as Miss Jenks's young man. Just as they are' about to sit down, the bell rings. Sherry has returned, an 3 the young ladies are locked up in a book case. Sherry 1:S s received a note from a fair incognito, to whom he has been in eking desperate love by letter, appointing an interview at his of Ice, and dismisses the clerk and porter for the day, who, how ev vr, secrete themselves under the desks, in order to seize an clef ortunity, if possible, of releasing the fair prisoners. Tlae lady enters, veiled, and just as the con vi 'nation becomes interesting, a ring is heard. He a tsrets her in a cupboard and lets in Mr. Mellowpear (Wil k-iisson) an attorney, who comes with an order from the Court of Chancery to seal up and take possession of all Sherry's bocks it t a suit instituted against him by the executors of his late p srtner. Mrs. Bloomly and Matilda are fairly locked in and se skied up, and he is about to seal up the third door when S berry tells him that his wife is la that cupboard, and sails her o at. To his horror it is his wife, who answers to the eall, a ad who suspecting him of infidelity had carried on a cones • )ndence with him as " Arabella. This is a capital Beene, and 1 was excellently acted by Selby and Mrs. F. Mathews. g n e sees the two bonnets and accuses him of having harboured tl se. owners in the office. He stands aghast. In her search fi w the heads which fit the bonnets she drags Fizgig and the d.....igeon from their hiding places, and they confess that the be mots belong to some ladies whom they bad brought in— th sir aunts. Mellowpear is sent for, and releases the two w irds in Chancery, who, in order to calm the suspicions of th e 'jealous Mrs. Sherry, consent to make Fizgig and the dragoon hap py. This is a lively, bustling farce, and was excellently acts dby all concerned. It went trippingly off, and we have no doubt but that the Irish Dragoon will be found upon sarnde every night many weeks to come. In the eourse of t lie piece Hudson sings a new burlesque serenade, " Wake, tdy, wake," with great taste and humour. He was raptu r. sasly encored. The house was crowded. ROYAL BOTANIC SOCIETY, REGENT'S PARK.-- kt a meeting of fellows, held at the garden on Saturday, the Bishop ct Durham, Vice-President, in the chair, a ballot took place, and the following ladies and gentlemen were added to the society .

'TUE PENINSULAR MAIL.—The Queen, Oriental arid Peninsular Company's steam.ship, Capt,:in Russell, arrived at Southampton on Sunday, bringing the usual Peninsular mails and 30 passengers. The Queen left Gibraltar May the 17th ; 18th ; Lisbon, 20th ; Oporto, 21st ; and Vigo, 22d. She was de. tained on her outward passage, or would have arrived yesterday. She brings as freight, fire cases of bullion, a large quantity of fruit (principally oranges), saffron, leeches, arc. ; besides CI bales of potatoes. The news from Lisbon is without interest. The Bishop of Levria had been appointed successor to the late Patriarch. Mr. Sheridan Knowles had arrived at Lisbon (rem Madeira, and was about to give some public readings at one of the hotels. Lord and Lady Cowley celebrated her Majesty's birthday by y grand dress-ball and supper at the hotel of the British EmbaEsa on Friday. The number of invitations amounted to 1,700, and the company included the entire rank and fashion of both France and England, together with nearly every foreigner of distinction at present in Paris. With the exception of M. Guizot and M. Saivandy, absent from illness, all the Members of the Cabinet were among the the guests, al were the Presidents of the two Legist, . _ tive Chambers, and the chief dignitaries of the State. T h e Foreign Ambassadors, with the entire diplomatic bbrly, were present. M. Guizot comes every day, says the Courrier Francais, front Passy, to his office, between one and two o'clock, but remains only a short time. The Count de Salvandy is still confined by the gout. _ _ ' A letter from Lucerne, of the 19th instant, announoes that the ' Grand Council has granted Dr. Steigel a reprieve, and that hopes are entertained of his sentence of death being commuted into exile. The same writer states that eight of the political prisoners confined in the tower of the Hohenrain have e ff ected their escape, by breaking the bars of the window, and letting theinsettes d own by means of a rope. In the Chamber of Deputies, on Saturday, M. Dufaure presented the report on the Bill relating to the railroad from Paris to Lyons, and from Lyons to Avignon. The rest of the sitting, up to post hour, was taken up with the Juges de Paix Bill. In the Peers the discussion on the new Customs Bill was re, corned. The part under consideration was that which speaks of Chinese and Indian silks. Baron Dumont addressed the Chamber at some length, and proposed to prohibit altogether their Intro. auction into France. This was opposed by the Minister a Commerce. The Constitutioxnel; observes, that the report of M. Bignon on the budget of expenditure was less favourable to Ministers than that of last year. Among the numerous reductions proposed by the Committee was one of 3,000,000 f. in the supplies required for Algeria. The Courrkr Francais says, " Since the armament of the forti. fications has been voted, the works are carried on with activity. The continuous wall is nearly completed at ilprey. At the extre mity of the rampart, adjoining the Seine, a Itirmidablb redoubt Is being constructed, which will sink every boat that should 9iteanpt to descend the river without the permission of the comp der. Four large barracks are, besides, building in the Interior of the fort of Charenton, which is now occupied by a large garrison. • METROPOLITAN COMPLETE SUFFRAGE ASSOCIA.- rien.—A general meeting of the members and friends of this and. elation was held last evening, at the Guildhall Coffee-house, Ring. street, Cheapside, Ebenezer Clarke, Esq., in the chair, for the p of considering the resolutions submitted to the Hens° of Comm ons by Lord .John Russell. After sonic deliberation, a resolution was carried condemnatory of the resolations as vague and unsatisfactory, no alteration being proposed in the present unjust electoral system. A resolution was also passed approving of the amendment to be proposed by Mr. Sharman Crawford—" That the present state of po litical tranquillity, and the recent revival of trade, afford a favourable opportunity to gave immediate attention to the claims so repeatedly urged in the petitions of the people for an extension of the Parliamen tary Suffrage, as well as to consider of such measures as may tend permanently to improve the condition of the labouring classes," and a petition was adopted praying the Hons. of Commons to pass such amendment. Addresses were delivered by Messrs. Simmonds, Vincent, Dick, &c. After al vote of thanks to the Chairman, the meeting, which was very respectable, broke up. CHEAP POSTAGE IN INDIA.—It is a positive fact, that the natives of the north.west carry the spirit of wonomy to such a degree of intensity, that ten letters are often writ under one cover, which do not weigh more than the tenth of an ounce. This cover, which often contains all the letters dispatched howl a town during the day, is, according to the last privilege, conveyed a bun. dred miles for half an anna, of less than the tenth of a penny each. What is the penny postage to this ?—Alien's Indian Mail, May 24. THE GRAND DUCHESS STEPHANIE OF BADEN.— This illustrious lady, during her stay in England, expressed the warmest interest in the success of the approa c hi ng Pelishb n all t . he Her s Royal Highness requested that her name should b e pl ace d in handsome t donation towards the funds, which was transmitted by rh of Lady Patronesses : and, on quitting Ragland, she lefta e of Hamilton to Lord Dudley Stuart. - - A dreadful accident occurred near Tintrim, in the county Gal. way, o❑ Wednesday, at the house of a man named Hallinan, who had been engaged in illicit distillation. A keg of the spirits was on the floor of the house, in which there were three girls, when a man named Garvey, who was drunk, came in, and calling for a light to prove the spirits, set fire to the whole, and caused a ter. riblc conflagration. One of the girls was burned to death; the two others were dragged out, but were much injured. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sift—The Epsom week, the most important in the year to the sporting world, has at length arrived, ushered in by very rough weather, which has made the course so heavy that should the present unfavourable state of the weather con tinue, the Derbe will be a trial of strength instead of speed, in which case an outsider, mentioned but twice in the betting early in the season, will come forth and bowl the cracks over easily. This same horse has latterly been in request at very long odds, I perceive. On Tuesday the meeting opens with the Craven Stakes, which Lord Chesterfield will carry off with the Knight of tire Whistle, Crim. Con, second. The Woodcote Stakes, for two year olds, will have Lord Harry for winner, the Hero second. The Manor Stakes, John Davis or Montgomerie. On Wednesday the performances eonarnenee with that ex citing drama the Derby, about which I will be as brief a possible ; to begin with Idas, who is certainly one of the finest animals that could be seen, and who has won all the races he has started for, easily, beating a tolerable pack of second roes. I expect to ace him forward in the race. Old England, should he run, which I think he will, is a very dangerous customer, and will be found to be the best in Day's stable. There is a rumour afloat which is not alto • gether groundless ; that some underhand movement was to be attempted against Dlr. Gully's horses, and that he had determined upon scratching them. Pantasa is in capital trim at the present time, and warrants his price in the bet ting ; he will run well. hedger will nip very forward. The Laird o'Co c k pen will astonish a few; it his present price he is well worth backing; he will not be far from the mark. The Libel won the St. Leger at Chester cleverly, and as he is in capital condition, he will, no doubt, be one of the first at the finish. Pam has improved materially lately, and will run a game horse, finishing in the front. Alarm, Wood Pigeon, Winchester, Young Eclipse, Jingle pot, Clear-the-Way, Cabin Boy, Miss Whip colt, and Gwalior, will form the guard of honour to the "cracks." In conclusion, remember the weather and the outsiders , and keep a sharp look-out upon one of Forth's lot. If a fine day, the five first at the finish will be Pam, Idas, The Libel, i r Old England, and Pantasa ; the latter three will furnish the 'first and second, say Pantasa first by a neck. The Epsom Stakes to Wild Roe. The Walton Stakes to Physalis or Moonshine. The Burgh Stakes to Prince of Wales. On Thursday the Epsom four year old Stakes to Qui Tam. The 10 sous. Sweepstakes to Jessie Hammond. The Surrey Cup will bring ten or eleven to the post, Vol -1 5..-vont and Semiseria the first two. The 5 SOW. Sweepstakes to Devil-among•the-Tailors. On Friday, the Oaks Stakes will bring about seventeen to 'the post. The particulars of this day's sport I will leave to :a future article, which will be in time if it appears on Thur.- c lay next.—l am, Sir, yours, THE SPIRIT OF THE TURF ES.
