MOLESWORTII at the nonaina- Lion ,a candidates for the borough of Southwark con-1 trasks nobly with the speeches of his two opponents.' The clear enunciation of facts and the manly spirit *high adoringduished this hustings' oration, would have bee n by the most fastidious and refined attilience. It abounded with truth. There was no suffling, no attempt to please the bigots, no flinching trona his declared and honest avowal of his sentiments vespecting the grant to Maynooth, nor any wish to a pologise for his literary labours in editing the works of .loriets. "I might," said he, " have avoided all the danger of the contest if I would have shrunk from the tide ofjustice to Ireland. I was asked how I should have voted with regard to the late grant to Maynooth. 1 might have evaded that question. I might have said that I was not in Parliament when that measure was teased that it was settled and gone by. I felt, however 0 l !t it was my duty to you honestly to state my 4,Pe101l with regard to that grant, and I felt that in jut igen to Ireland I must have voted for it." Such open et°4(biet deserves great praise, because its object really isth4::toletdetahleweiltehc,tors of Southwark know the man they and prevent all misunderstandin g on ttleartelirrence of similar religious questions.

The Queen, 110 gu the Albion (90), the largest on twthos teee4t I n her MAJESTY'S service, appear tilt, cr uise to have retrieved their former discom es, aud to have outsailed, on a comparison of all fee testllts of 411 th e the various trials on which they were engaged . ititits.other ships of the squadron ; though, in some__ e t ot of beaten by two or three of their consorts. W t4ratUlate Sir WILLIAM SYMONDS on the success ofbe sort kis vessels on this cccasion ; yet it is to e 14ited that the distanced Superb (80), and the hailt" ( 80 ), were also constructed by the same e t t , 041.,and on his same favourite principle. In just c of thesec,rres we must observe, too, that the performanc h e t s ecitkl, Sue and 'Vanguard on this occasion, and the Aib,":47funfortunate behaviour of the Queen and t e 046 4 ' .. _ 0 . the former cruise, abundantly and irresistibly pri t 2 , the objections so often urged to the "intuitive'' of 40to-y_i.e and its wedge-lie model.

The Queen, it must be allowed, has also been judiciously handled at last, and alterei in dock in the interval that has elapsed since that period, so as to have exhibited sailing qualities of a much superior order to any that, up to this time, she had ever been found to manifest. We are too thankful for a good first-class man-of-war rot to rejoice at the distinction she has attained ; and for that distinction Sir WILLIAM SYMONDS is entitled to take credit, as a set-off aiainst the very seirious account which Sir CHARLES NAPIER, Captain BERKELEY, and other not "ex officio," but professional " auditors of the navy esti mates" have brought against him for wasteful disburse ments of the public money on his own unprofitably con structed ships. And this allusion to the Gallant Com modore reminds us of a certain " Return " moved for, last session, by another naval officer of distinction in the House of Commons (Lord INGESTRE), and just distri buted under the title of " Navy : Ships--the Queen, &c.," ordered to be printed Bth August 1845, (N 0.634). Among this mass of papers is the " Return," we allude to, " of the expenses in building and repairs of the ships undermentioned, distinguishing those built by the Surveyor of the Navy, &c., &c." In this list we find the Queen (110), built by Sir W. SYSIONDS, in 1839, at a cost of 83,0001., and repaired in 1843 ; again repaired in 1844 ; and again TWICE in the present year, 1845. Notv, it is curious to observe how the changeable and extensive character of these re pairs has increased in the present year SINCE the former trip of the Queen with the Experimental Squadron. The Queen is only six years old, and she has undergone repairs during the last three years of that term no less than four tines. In 1843 her repairs cost 4641 only. In 1844 her further repairs cost 1,8531. This year the cost of her first batch of additional repairs, &c., was 1,5201., being for " alterations of gripe, additional false keel, rudder, post, and stations of masts." These, we apprehend, were "alterations" very clearly conneeed with those defective sailing and steer ing properties that had been to sensibly ex perienced on the former cruise. But what is the amount of the last repairs—the second demand on that account for the fist seven months of 1345 ?-6,2701. (1) for "repairs and fittings ; CAULKING, COPPERING, build.. ins magazines according to the new establishment, &c.' , So that here is a total expense of 10,000/. in three years, for repairs of a new first-rate, which, prior to her cruise of last year, can scarcely be said to have seen the sea. If alterations of gripe, additicus to false keel and rudder, and changing the station of masts, bespeak original errors of draught and construction, in what regards the steering and sailing of a ship, the caulking and new coppering and other most extensive and expensive repairs to her hull bespeak, with equal significance, vices of construction that have, caused her timbers to strain and her frame to labour.. Let us then be permitted to hope, at least, that if Sir WILLIAM i 5 to be continued in his post of Surveyor of the Navy, he will in future condescend to learn from the ascertained deficiencies, faults and errors of construction always complained of in his ships, and now tested and irrefragably proved by the success which has attended these radical and elementary alterations of his original draughts, estimates, and designs, what he has so long and obstinately persisted in refusing to be taught by the practical example of other systems adopted by other builders. Whilst the yards of our private builders at Cowes, in London, at Southamp ton, at Greenock, at Douglas, have been turning out vessels of all sizes and capacities, from pleasure sailing yachts to steam-frigates, designed with so much theore tical science, and laid down, and built with SO much technical judgment, skill, and compactness, as to be models unrivalled for the combined qualities of symmetry and sailing, of easy steerage and hardi ness, compactness and capacity, unrivalled by the naval architects of any other country ; our Government ship-building is so notoriously inferior to that of our most formidable rivals, that an old French 84 is still in our vast navy an unequalled ship of her own class ; and new 74-gun ships, like the Scarborough, no sooner take the sea than they are iliscovered to be so worthless as to be compelled to be broken up, and their materials sold at a loss of probably 35,0001. to 40,0001. on one such ship to the country. The official survey on the Scarborough, made in 1836 (as we learn from another of the returns before us), reported that the re pairs she then needed would amount to 47,113 Z No doubt, therefore, it was far better to sell the materials of such a worthless hull at once ; but is it not intolerable, to say nothing for the present of the public peril incurred by such scandalous mismanagement, that the nation should have its money squandered on such blinders of professional incapacity? From a " Return o the expenses on the building and repairs of the Ships undermentioned, distinguishing those built by the Sur veyor of the Navy and other constructors," some of Sir WILLIAM SYMONDS' favourite craft appears to have re quired very speedy and very costly cobbling. The re pairs of the Queen, as we have already shown, in six years cost 10,1071. without any service ; 124 per cent. on her building cost of 83,000/. The Vanguard, one of Sir William's eighty guns, which was built for 62,115/, cost for repairs, in ten years, 11,6001, or within a fraction of 19 per cent. The Pique (only saved from foundering on her home ward voyage from Quebec, by the seamanship and intre pidity of the Hon. Captain Roars and her gallant crew), a 36 gun frigate, cost 33,0001. for building in 1834. In eight years her repairs bad cost 6,0471., after getting on shore, 3,6701 more ; together 9,7171., or 30 per cent. The Vernon (50), completed in 1832, cost 48,4871 She was built in twelve months. In the first three sub sequent years her repairs were 5,5471. In the next three (1835 to 1838), 12,4701 ; in the early part of the present ",Tar, 3,534/. Thus, in thirteen years, the repairs of this new] crack experimental ship, the Surveyor's mas terpiece, it was said, before he brought out the Queen, have stood the country in a sum of 21,5511, or 44i per cent. on her building cost. But Sir WIL, Lulu's Vestal (78) has proved, comparatively speaking, a still more chargeable affair. She was built in 1833 for 21,383/. In eleven years her repairs had amounted to 12,8701., or 60 per cent. on her build ! We suppose we are not to have these results inflicted On . us in future, otherwise the exceptional superiority in experimental cruising of the Queen and the Albion will be dearly pur chased at the expense of entailing a renewal of Sir WIL LIAM'S extravagant searches after " the practical." The Madrid journals of the 3d instant contain abun dance of rumours, but no intelligence of interest. Two of them affirm that a marriage between the QUEEN and the Prince of ASTURIAS has been arranged, and will shortly take place ; while a third, the Herald°, pro nounces the match impossible, and adds, that not the slightest symptom of such a result has been evinced dur ing the royal progress in the Basque provinces. The Globo, on what authority is not stated, anticipates a fa vourable sett!ement of the sugar question between the Spanish and British Governments ; and the Clamor thus denounces the NARTAEZ Ministry:—" All parties arc hostile to the Government ; every class of men ex ecrates it. Liberals, Conservatives, Carlists, Apostoli cals direct against it their just resentment. There does not exist an independent journal that does not oppose it ; there is not a political party that does not consider itself outraged by it." The QUEEN arrived at Pampeluna on the 3d ; on the following day the French Princes entered the palace, and were received by the Court with:every demonstration of enthusiastic welcome. Little business was done on the Bourse. The Three per Cents. were quoted 33 for account, but nothing was done in the other stocks. Most of the Paris papers contain brief comments on the arrival of Queen VICTORIA at Eu, which was an nounced to the good people of the capital in the follow ing telegraphic dispatch : " EU, SEPT. 8, 9 O'CLOCK, " The Queen of England has just arrived. The King pro ceeded to meet her Majesty, and went on board her yacht. " The Queen afterwards entered the royal barge, with the King, Prince Albert, the Prince de Joinville, Prince Augustus of Saxe Coburg Gotha, and M. Guizot, and landed at Treport at nine o'clock, the weather being magnificent, amidst the acclamations of the entire population." The remarks of the Opposition journals on the event are not in the best taste. A strange delusion prevails among the monopolists of France that the QUEEN in making friendly visits to her relatives at Coburg and to the French Court, had something else in view than per sonal gratification—that, in fact, she was on a diplomatic commission, got up expressly for promoting the com mercial interests of her country. The Presse infers that she was not successful in Germany, for, says that jour nal—" It is affirmed that the QUEEN returns little plecsed with her journey to the banks of the Rhine—a journey which has concluded more abruptly than was anticipated." The Commerce, alluding to this statement, expresses a hope that " her MAJESTY had not gone to France to seek compensation for the failure, and to renew the nego tiations for a commercial treaty between the two coun tries." These appear to us very contemptible paragraphs in papers that profess to contain information for men of common sense, and certainly are not at all in keeping with the usual gallantry of the French character. The Constitutionnel, in rather a better spirit, thus alludes to the nterview betweerA her MAJESTY and Prince MitrrEatvicn : —" The QUEEN'S journey from Frankfort to Antwerp presented nothing worthy of remark. At Frankfort her MAJESTY dined with the King of BAVARIA, whom chance had brought to that city, after a visit to the Grand Duke of HESSE DARMSTADT, at Aschaffenbourg. M. DE MET TERNICH also happened to be . (no doubt likewise by chance) at the royal table, and by the side of the Earl o f ABERDEEN. ,It was observed,' says a Frankfort letter, " that those two statesmen had an animated conversation which was protracted long after dinner.' A charming espieglerie is told of the QUEEN, who, observing the vivacity with which the Austrian Arch-Chancellor spoke, rose, and went and presented him, with her own royal hand, the cup of coffee intended for him." The National makes the following remarks on the amusements prepared at Parnpeluna for the French Princes : " The innocent Queen Isabella and her august mother, Madame Munoz, are not contented with witnessing the shoot ing of deer, they must have a spectacle of higher gait, and the Presse initiates us precisely in a former number into the na ture of their ingenious and delicate amusement, which con sists in seeing horses ripped up, and men killed by bulls, which are eventually slaughtered, after being stabbed, pierced, and burnt in every way. We consider these scenes as quite equal to the hunting in the German fashion. In both cases the spectacle is odious and ignoble. At Pampe luna, however, it is men, and in Germany deer that suffer. The difference is not in favour of the protegee of the Presse, and if blood must be shed, we prefer that of the deer of Gotha. What makes these royal enjoyments most strik ing is there having been got up to fete the Duke and Duchess do Nemours, who are much diverted by them. The Physician of the lPlalade Imaginaire offered his mistress the pastime of an autopsy ; the innocent Isabella amuses her visitors by a cruel slaughter of men and animals. In , our amphitheatres they operate on dead subjects-in Spain on living ones; it is much more amusing. England is moved at seeing her young Queen acquire a taste for blood in a deer-hunt. In Spain and in France-at least amongst the friends of the daughter and the widow of Ferdinand VII.- nothing wrong is seen :in a bull fight; nay more, the scene is related in a picturesque style, as if it were a simple thing. It is then that the massacres of ? Barcelona, the shootings at Madrid have so far strung the nerves of Spanish royalty that there is no longer anything to fear for them in witness ing bull-fights? In this case, however, it would, in our opinion, have been well to have shown more consideration, if not for the feelings, at least for the eyes of the Regent promised to the pacific destinies of our country." The Paris Bourse on Tuesday was crowded to excess by speculators in railway lines. Before the adjudication of the Northern line, the prices were all higher than on Monday, and ROTHSCHILD'S were once done as high as 920 f. This price was, however, soon reduced to about 900 f., at which it remained to the close. After the ad judication, the price of the ROTHSCHILD rose to 910 f. ; after some transactions at that price, fell to the old quo tation 900 f., at which they closed. All the other nor thern promises closed about sf. higher than yesterday's prices: Fampoux to Hazebruck rose to 530 f., at which they closed. The general effect of the adjudication was less than might have been expected.

The sales of Cotton in the Liverpool market, yesterday, were 6,000 bags, including 1,200 American and 200 Egyptian on speculation. The market was rather quiet, but in other respects there was no change. Sales, 600 bales Surat at 3d to 3%d; 800 Egyptian at 6%dto 7 1 4 d ; 150 Bahia at 6d to 6%d; 100 Mstranham at 6d to 6 3 / 4 cl; and the rest American, at 3 3 / to s'(d per lb.—There w as a goo d d e mand for Shares at full prices, but principally for the scrips. There has been lately rather an improved speculative de mand for a few of the choicest (if choice there be) of the United States' Shares and Stock. A move in the right di rection has been made by the state of Pennsylvania, and our hope is that she may continue to rise from the lowly posi tion'her adhesion to repudiative principles once placed her in. We are informed that Pennsylvania Stock is worth now a much higher value than it realised a few months back. Still there is not a great deal of business doing here. There was not any Colonial arrivals of interest announced this morning. The pool is much crowded with foreign as well as colonial shipping, and a v as t am ount of business is at the present moment d o i ng . It i s v ery satisfac tory to be enabled t o represen t th e woollen and the cotton manufactures as being most active. The abolition of the duty upon the importation of foreign wool has, contrary to all the anticipations of the croakers against Sir R. Peerst;tarift; proved most satisfactory to all branches of the woollen trade. If such beneficial results have followed the opening of the Wool trade, (and there is no doubt that very considerable advantag e has resulted from .the abolition of this duty), what excuse can there be why the Premier should not try the effect of a free importation of foreign wheat ? Accounts from Belgium state that there was an import of potatoes from Scotland owing to the high price of the article here. FromiSweden - and Moscow we are advised that their potatoes looked well, though wheat at the latter place was deficient in yield. The Continental states are doing their best to forward their crops, a proof of the attention which they would withdraw from manufacturing pursuits, provided they had sufficient ennouragement to send their produce here. A highly influential agricultural association exists in Prussia, the subscriptions to which amount to 21,000 francs per annum, each member paying 6 francs, and receiving the so ciety's reports in return. The State is said to afford aid also to the association. There is not a single price for Consols for the Account this morning. For Money 98 1 4 % are the only rates at which business has been done. The premium on Exchequer-bills is steady at 465. East India Stock is dull at 269 for Money, and at 269% for the Account. Mexican Bonds in the Foreign Stock Exchange have fallen to-day to 33, and the Deferred to 17. Coludibian are a shade lower also. Portuguese are steady ' • the Four per Cent. Dutch have rallied to 99% ; and Spani s h Consols are still quoted at 27%. The holders of Shares here in the several Companies which are now represented by Messrs.Rothsehild of Paris, to whatn the concession of the Great Northern of France Railway has been made, arg naturally desirous to Levee fairprinciple established in the division of shares among them ; but we fear that a sort of favouritism is likely to be too general. From this remark we must not embrace either the principals of the Rothschilds, the. Lafittes, the Hottingeurs, or the Rosamel Companies. The subject• is one, however, to which A considerable degree of interest is attached here and in Paris. The Laffitte's Shares are at 23% 3 1 4 premium to-day, the Rosamel's at I%tand 1%, and the Pepin le Halleur at r s premium. The principal changes in the British railways this morning have been as follows, first premising that the demand is fair for established and the new and well-selected fresh lines. The London and Birmingham Shares have been quoted at 221—the present price nominally. The Bir mingham and Gloucester hare realised •as much, in the course of the morning, as 132. The Direct Manchester are • nominal, at 4%. The Great Southern of Ireland, 26% ; the Dublin , and Galway ' 5 1 / 2 ; the Edinbugh and Glasgow, nominal at 89 ; the Great Western ditto, at 168 ; the Half Shares, at 94 ; the Limerick and Waterford firm, but nominal ; the London and Croydon at 25 1 ; the Manchester and Birmingham were heavy at 72 ; the Midland also at 170; the Trent Valley and Holyhead Junction are on the rise; and the York and North Midlands have receded a point or two. - In the other Shares the altera tions have been but slight. - ONE CLOSING PRICES OF BRITISH FUNDS.

At three o'clock, the latest hour at which we could get a return from Mr. Miall's committee in time for publi cation, the poll stood thus : Molesworth Filcher Mini' Giving Sir William a majority of 662 Mr. Pilcher's Committee issued no regular returns during the day, though, at half-past three o'clock, a written placard was put out giving Sir William Molesworth a majority under a hundred. This was evidently a mere feint to rally straggling voters, in order to give a respectable minority to their candidate, as it was evident from an early hour there was no chance of his return. The advantage which the friends of Sir Wm. Moles worth gave him the first hour of the morning by placing him at the head of the poll, was never for a moment lessened, but gradually increased as the returns of the various hours will show, till four o'clock, when the poll finally closed ; the numbers then being : For Sir William Molesworth 1,942 Mr. Pilcher . 1,176 Mr. Miall Majority for Sir William Molesworth -766 Majority for Sir William Molesworth over Mr. Pilcher and Mr. Miall --413 At the time of going to press all is quiet though an immense crowd is collected in front of the Town-hall in expectation of an address from Sir William Molesworth.

A comparison of the traffic of the half-year with that of the corresponding half-year of 1644 will show an increase in pas senger traffic of 13,457/. 6s. 7d. The change in the mode of conducting the merchandise department, which commenced on the Ist February last, has been attended with complete success. The public have received the advantage of fixed and moderate rates of carriage, while the Com pany's gross receipts have increased from 7 2 819/. 3s. Ild. in the corresponding half-year of 1844, to 18,1031. 14s. 3d. in the last half-year, and the additional expense to the Company has not amounted to more than 53(i/. 10s. 7d. The Directors have to coneratulate the Proprietors upon the result of the leasing of the Greenwich and Whitstable lines: the former of these has already produced a considerable profit, and the latter, although still unconnected with the branches of the South-Eastern Rail way, and therefore not yet in a position to have its resources fairly developed, has yielded a small net surplus beyond expenses. The Directors have much satisfaction in reporting that the dis pute with the Brighton Company respecting the cost of con struction of the twelve miles of railway between Croydon and Reigate has been amicably terminated. It will he in the recol lection•of the Proprietors, that the sum of 326,137/. 28.3 d. ster ling was invested by the South-Eastern Company, in the Three per Cent. Consols in the year 1842, to meet the Brighton Corn pany 's claim ; arbitrators were subsequently appointed under the provisions of the Act of Parliament, but as the settlement of the question, in strict accordance with the terms of that Act, seemed hopeless, it was finally adjusted by a compromise under authority given to the Directors of the two Companies by their Proprietors. The sum originally invested had been by the accumulation of dividends, and the profit arising from the in creased value of the Consols, augmented to 385,791/. Is. 3d. The compromise provided, that the Brighton Company should receive 340,000/., and that the balance of 45,7911. is 3d. should revert to the South-Eastern Company. The original investment with the dividends thereon amounted to 358,574/. 4s. 10d., so that after discharging the claim of the Brighton Company there remained a sum of 18,5741. 4s. 10d. to revert to the South-Eastern Company, in diminution of the sum invested by them for the construction of the twelve miles of the joint line. The Directors have added to this sum the in terest accruing upon it during the three years it was invested, amounting to 1,671/. 13s. tl. and the total 20,2451. 18s. has been credited to the general construction account. The ba lance which has arisen from the profit of the invest ment amounts to 25.3961. ss. 4d. and is placed to the Reserved Fund. The total disposable balance presents a sum of 65,322/. Is. 9d. ; out of this the Directors recommend that a dividend be declared of 16s. per share (less the income-tax) upon the paid-up Shares, and of the proportionate amounts of 4s. upon the No. 1 shares, and 2s. 2d. upon the No. 2 shares. This will amount to 54,9501., and will leave a reserved fund of 30,372/. Is. 9d. to be carried forward to the credit of the next half-year's account. The Proprietors are aware that the dissolution of the present Joint Locomotive Committee has been determined upon, but that it will not be completed before the end of the year. In the meantime, however, a divi sion has been made among the three Companies of the loco motive engines and carriages, and the men in these departments have been placed under the control of that Company, in whose service they are employed. None of the en gines ordered by the Directors for the exclusive use of the South-Eastern Company have as yet been received ; but their early delivery is now certain, and the Di rectors will then be provided with a sufficient stock for opening the branch line from Ashford to Canterbury and Margate. Ti.e difficulties arising from the possession of a joint property were found to be so great that the Directors had no hesitation in disembarrassing their position wi'h regard to the Bricklayers' Arms Branch and Station, by purchasing from the Croydon Company the right of that Company to a third share in it. This purchase was completed on the 10th July, and the amount paid to the Croydon Com pany appears in the Construction Account under its proper head. During the last session of Parliament the royal assent was given to ib, !Mier ing five Acts, viz.:—An Act for the per petual Lease of the Greenwich Railway to the South-Eastern Company ; an Act for the widening of the Greenwich Railway an Act fur the construction of a line from Tunbridge to Tun bridge Wells; an Act for the construction of a line from Ashford to Hastings and St. Leonardo ; and an Art for the construction of a line from Minster to Deal, which includes also powers to the South-Eastern Company to purchase the Canterbury and Whitstable Railway It is must satisfactory to the Directors to be enabled to state, that of the projected schemes for new railways inimical to the interests of the South-Eastern Company, which were brought forward in the last session, not cne has been successful. The Directors have re-considered the measures tobe taken in regard to the projected lines of railway to be brought forward in the next session of Parliament, and they recommend only such extensions as appear to them to be legitimately connected with the existing lines of the South-Eastern Company and the Branches which it has powers to construct, and as they believe are most likely to work to the public advantage in their bands, under one system of management. They feel confident that in adopting a liberal and comprehensive policy, and in supplying to the public the utmost amount of accommodation, they will best promote the true interests of the Company, and that these views will receive the cordial support of the Proprietors. After the decision of the Committee on Group A, in the past session, they instructed Mr. Robert Stephenson to review the entire scheme, and to offer any suggestions which he might think desirable for its improvement and more complete development. This has been done, and the surveys are in art advanced state. The projected lines will affcrd the most direct and perfect communications from Hougerferd and Waterloo Bridges through North Kent, and every important town in that district, to Canterbury and Dover, with a branch to Sheerness. There will be a direct line through the Crays to Maidstone and Tunbridge, and through Maidstone to the main line near Ashford,, with a connecting line from Maidstone to Rochester; a branch line, from Reigate to Dorking, and an extension of the Tunbridge Wells branch to Hastings, where it will join the Ashford and Hastings line. " The Act for snaking a branch from Tunbridge to Tunbridge Wells received the royal assent en the 31st July last ; and the line will be opened for public traffic on the 20th instant. The experience which the Directors have had of the difficulty of working to advantage a single line is not such as to warrant their recommending the adoption in future of lines of that description. They have, therefore, given directions that the Canterbury, Ramsgate, and Margate Branch shall be converted from a single to a double line. The expense of this will be comparatively moderate, as land is purchased and the works are designed for a double line. The works on this branch are reported by the engineer to be in a forward state; it is expected that the line from Ashford to Canterbury will be opened by the end of this year, and from Canterbury to Ramsgate and Margate in a few weeks after wards. The Directors have it seriously in contemplation to lay down a second line of rails on the Maidstone branch, to make it also a double line. The electric telegraph hav ing been laid down between Tunbridge and Maid stone, the Directors have had an opportunity, of appreciating the advantages which may be derived from such a means of communication, and have come to the resolution of having it laid down over the whole of the South-Eastern Railway. The use of propelling engines is forbidden on every part of the South-Eastern Railway. The Directors attach great . . importance to a connexion being made between - the South-Eastern Railway at Reigate and the other parts of the railway system in England. As a step towards the accom plishment of this object, the Directors projected the Reigate and Dorking Line, and will be prepared to proceed with it if necessary. The importance of a connexion through this district has not, however, escaped public notice; and: companies have been formed for the construction of lines of railway, commencing at Reigate, and termina ing at convenient points of junc tion with the South-Western, Great Western, and the London and Birmingham Railways. The Directors are in close communication with the respective Committees, and have no doubt that such satisfactory arrangements will be made as will enable them to give their co• operation and support to projects, which, when properly matured and carried out, must prove highly advantageous to the South-Eastern Railway Company. " i he Directors are happy to . acquaint the Proprietary that the South-Eastern and Continental Steam Packet Company has been formally established and registered, and is now in active operation. Four steam-boats, of the most improved construc tion and unexampled speed, are now plying between Dover, Folkestone, and the Continental Harbours. A fifth boat has been built, and its arrival is daily expected, when it will be placed upon these stations. " The execution of the Great Northern Railway of France is proceeding rapidly, and the concession of the lease has, pro bably, by this time, been obtained. This will enable the Great Northern Company to adopt the most energetic measures for opening it for traffic. The Proprietors cannot fail to have observed the great extension which the railway system is now receiving, both in Great Britain and on the Continent, and will have no difficulty in conceiving that this will be at tended with an immense increase of travelling in each country, and with a corresponding benefit to the South-Eastern Rail way, which forms the direct line of communication with the Continent." The report (which frequently elicited applause) having expressed the regret of the Directors that Sir J. Kirkland arid Mr. C. K. Murray had retired from the Board, concluded by congratulating the Proprietors upon the advancing pros perity of the Company. The CHAIRMAN then asked—Did the Proprietors present wish to have the accounts of the half-year read? Several Proprietors said that it was unnecessary, but that they thought the copies of the accounts ought to have been distributed earlier. The CHAIRMAN said that the delay should be avoided in future.—(llear, hear.) He congratulated the Company upon its increased prosperity. The receipts of the last half-year exceeded the receipts of the corresponding half year in 1834 by 13,4571.—(Hear, hear)—of which 8,1871. were derived from the increase of traffic upon the Greenwich branch (Great applause.) The opening of the Great Northern line of France would add greatly to the prosperity of this Company, and would realise the most sanguine expectations of the Pproprietors. indeed they might calculate upon an increase of revenue from every improvement in rail way communication in the northern and western part of the Continent. The Honourable Gentleman then went through the details of the report, hiscom ments upon which were very much applauded throughout. A PROPRIETOR said, that before the report was agreed to, he wished, with the permission of the Proprietors present, to offer a suggestion which he thought to be of very great impor tance. Much complaint was made of the high charge for the carriage of parcels.—(Hear.) A small parcel which would be charged but 6d. for carriage by post, was charged Is. 4d. by the railway.—(Hear, hear.) He was sure that a reduc tion of the charge would not only increase the popularity of the Company, but add to the revenue.—(Hear.) He did not wish for any discussion, but only threw out a suggestion Sir J. KIRKLAND then addressed the meeting, and ex plained, amidst much applause, that the only reason for his resigning the chairmanship of the Company was that he differed from the other Directors as to the appro priation of the fund arising from the settleme n t of the Com m. s p h a o n t y ild w m ith ai t n h tai e 13 n r f i o g r h a to e n , ai friendship for his late co lleagues in the Directory, and he would continue to exert R hi a s ilway, personalki e maintained still, and himself as a Proprietor for the interests of the Company. A series of resolutions embodying the views of the Direc tors as set forth in their report was, after a desultory con versation, unanimously agreed to. The CHAIRMAN moved a vote of thanks to Sir J. Kirkland for his services as chairman of the Company. Mr. WitsoN seconded the resolution, which was carried with very great applause. After the dispatch of some routine business, thanks were voted to the Chairman and Directors, and the meetill separated in very high spirits.

CONFERENCE OF EVANGELICAL MINISTERS.—A proposal having been made that a great meeting of Evangelical Christians, of different churches and countries, should be held in London, for the purpose of " associating and concentrating the strength of an enlightened Protestantism against the en croachment of Popery and Puseyism, and to promote the in terests of a Scriptural Christianity," it has been thought de sirable that a preliminary meeting of the various denominations in Great Britain and Ireland should be held ; and it has ac cordingly been decided that this preliminary conference shall take place at Liverpool on the Ist of October. It is expected that 1:00 ministers will be present, and that the proceedings will occupy three days.—Manchester Guardian. Grt Ncrthern of France (Laffitte's) Ditto (Rosamel's) 3X Do.

The Hono rary Silver Medal of Lloyd's to Lieut. William Gould, R.N., and votes of money to seamen ipstrumental in saving the crews of vessels wrecked on the coast, were proposed and carried at this meeting. PRINCE CHARLES STEWART.—A controversy has arisen regarding the orthography of the name Stewart, it being maintained by many that it should be spelt Stuart. There is nothing more subject to the caprice of individuals than the manner in which they spell their proper names ; the origin of appellations being entirely lost sight of. This is seen very ob viously in the word before us. Robert 11., Great Steward of Scotland, gave, from his office; the name by which the Scottish royal family were afterwards distinguished, and the substitution of t for d arose merely from its being more suitable to Scottish pronounciation. It is is said that it was Queen Mary who first altered the mode of spelling, and having been brought up in France it was very probable that she did so; indeed, there was no other way in which French writers could. spell it. There is an announcement of a reprint, with ample notes, by William Meikleham, Esq., LL.B., of all the passages in the Glasgow Co:Jane of 1745 relating to Prince Charles, which will be exceedingly curious, as that gentleman's copy is the only one known to be extant. We perceive that he has the name printed " Stewart," in which he is perfectly correct in reference to its origin. The Italians, with whom Prince Charles spent his youth, could not otherwise spell this word, and the Highlanders having also no w in their alphabet, were compelled to use the same orthography. It- is, therefore, affec tation to retain a mode of spelling which nations were forced to adopt from the defect of their alphabet.

The Court was occupied the whole of the morning in hear ing Mr. Cooke in opposition to this bankrupt, who came up for examination on adjournment from the 15th of August. The bankrupt, who was described as a coal merchant, of Tysoe-street, Wilmington-square, is well known in the sporting circles. Tl.e examination to-day was principally directed to the dis posal of several valuable guns to Messrs. Brawn, Boydell, Richardson, Dutt, and Co. One gun alone was valued at 80 guineas. The bankrupt said some of his books had been destroyed by his children. He store that the guns had been given in satis faction of bond fide debts. He had not parted with any dogs. The COMMISSIONER said tkat, on the whole, he considered an adjournment advisable, to afford time for further inquiry, and he considered the case had better stand over till he could hear it himself. In the interim, the bankruptmust content him self with an order for subsistence-money from this time, but in prospective to be paid, if on his next examination all the doubtful points were cleared up. The case was not over till two o'clock.: GUILDHALL.-(THIS DAY.) A person, who was stated to be most respectably connected, but who was most miserably dressed, and who gave her name as Sarah Pennell, was brought before Alderman Kelly, charged with breaking two squares of glass, value 51. Jane Niel, of the Red Cross public-house, said that about eight o'clock that morning the prisoner came into the house and threatened to break all the windows en Mr. White's premises. Orders had been given far same time past not to serve her with liquor. She left the house, and presently afterwards wit ness heard a great smash, and on going outside observed a crowd about the prisoner, who had a stone in her hand. A police man shortly came up and she was given into custody. There mere two squares of plate-glass broken, which would cost from 41. to 5/, to replace. She was not intoxicated, and used most violent language Police-constable 163 said that she was well known. Alderman KELLY said she must pay the 51., which not being forthcoming, she was committed to prison for two months, and on her release to find sureties for her good beha viour for the next six months. • BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.) Wihiam James, a cabman, was charged with being drunk and disorderly, and with assaulting a young woman named Emma flaywood, who was also placed at the bar charged with being drunk and disorderly. Policeman F 65 found the prisoners, at half-past eleven o'clock last night, at the door of the public-house, the Coach and Horses, in Bow-street, from which they were turned out, where James was beating the other prisoner. violently. . Hay wood called upon him to take the man in charge, which he did. Inspector Logan, of the F division, laid . that the policeman brought the prisoner James to the station a little before twelve o'clock: He received the charge, but the girl Haywood using very_foul language, insisting on his liberation, he (witness) thought it necessary to lock her up also. - • The prisoner Haywood denied having been drunk: She bad been beaten severely by the other. prisoner, and she went into hysterics at the station. She denied using any bad language. Mr. jARDINE said that he must sentence both prisoners to seven days' imprisonment. . , The prisoner Haywood asked whether there was any fine, as she had an infant at home to which no one would attend during her imprisonment. Mr. JARDINE said be would not fine the prisoner. He would send to the house she lived at to ascertain whether she had a child there, and if se, it should be taken care of during her imprisonment.

A meeting of the shareholders in this railway was held this day at the London Tavern, for the purpose of submitting the plaa'of their proceedings in tne ensuing Parliament. The advertisement having been read, Mr. CAPPER was called to the chair, and in a few re marks stated that their engineer, Sir John Rennie, bad resigned, and Mr. John Miller was elected in his stead. He was happy to say, that although their expenses in the late contest in Parliament had been very heavy, they had still money and money's worth left, and the prices of shares in the market at that time were higher than when originally issued. He should call upon the Secre tary at once to read the Directors' and the Engineer's report. The Secretary then read the reports alluded to, After stating the course pursued during'the last session before the Committee of the House of Commons, and their defeat by the London and York, the report thus proceeded : " Holding it to be now settled, leeyond doubt, that a new line from London to York would be sanctioned, irrespective of existing routes, and being convinced that the scheme of the London and York does not satisfy the main conditions which ought to attach to such a line, as a communication of great national importance, your Directors instructed Mr. John Miller, the distinguished engineer of the North British Railway (to whom they have now committed the entire charge of the engineering department) to examine the country between London and York, and to report to them bikopinion, with a view to future proepedings, ..• " let his opinion the Directors most heartily concur, and they propose acting upon it, by carrying out the system of railway therein recommended. " To the North British, the Great North of England, and the other lines which form the eastern route to Scotland, the formation of the shortest line from London to York is of vital importance, and the Directors think themselves justified in anticipating that the scheme recommended by Mr. Miller will receive the cordial support and co-operation of these Companies, as well as of the population generally of the north-eastern portion of Great Britain. "In Mr. Miller's hands the Directors are confident that they will be enabled to submit to Parliament a main line which shall be at least ten miles shorter than that proposed by the London and York, and which, combined with the necessary branches, will give a greater amount of local ac commodatien. " The Directors are enabled to state that the gross amount of expenses incurred will be about thirty shillings per share, and, consequently, to such Shareholders as may desire to withdraw from the further prosecution of the undertaking, there will remain the sum of, say from 17s. to 11. per share on their original deposits of 21.105. per share to be returned. "Having maturely considered all the circumstances of the case, the Directors have conic to the determination that the original project of an integral line from the metropolis to York on the direct principle, and under one management, ought to be resumed and proceeded with in the ensuing ses sion of Parliament. " For this purpose the Directors propose that the required capital of 4,000,000/. shall be divided into 160,000 shares of 251. each, those Shareholders who may desire to continue their interest in the undertaking being entitled, with the sanction of the Directors, to exchange their Scrip Certificates of 50/. each for two new shares of 25/. each, on paying up such further sum per share as, with the remainder of the former deposit, will make up 10 per cent. upon the capital now required to be deposited by the Standing Orders of the House of Lords. As to any shares that may,remain at the disposal of the Directors, after carrying out this arrange ment, they will consider a preference to be due to approved holders of the present Scrip." The report of Mr. Miller, the engineer, was then read, recommending a direct line from London to York in pre ference to a line which should more particularly study the local accommodation of the district. He proposed that those local disadvantages should be met by a system of branch lines. Mr. J. BLACK proposed that the reports should be re ceived and adopted, and that the thanks of the Share holders be tended to the Directors for their exertions. Mr. CROMBIE, after a few observations, seconded the resolution, which was unanimously adopted. Mr. ROBERTSON proposed a resolntion to the effect that the capital of the Company should ho 4,000,0001., divided into 25/. shares, with a deposit of V. los. per share, the holders of present scrip to receive the first allotment. • This resolution was seconded by Mr. LAWSEN. After a few questions from Mr. Gore, as to whether any opposition might be expected to their schemes from the Cambridge and Lincoln and the North-Eastern Railwa) s, to which the Chairman replied in the nega tive, the meeting broke up after a vote of thanks to the Chairman. . LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY EVENING. TIIE WEA THER.—Both yesterday and to-day we have had splendid weather.
