PICELIMINAR 1 ANNOUNCEMENT. lop• AILWAY FROM MACCLESFIELD, pass;ng close to the Towns of Leek, Cheadle, and Uttoxeter, to Trent Valley Railway north of Lichfield. PROVISIONALLY REGISTERED. . , The Line will commence at the Terminus of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway at Macclesfield, and passing by the Rudyard Reservoir to Leek, will proceed by the Churnet Valley to Conseil, thence close to Cheadle and Tean, and by Uttoxeter, Bagots Woods and Abbots Bromley down the Blythe, to a point on the Trent Valley Railway north of Lichfield, communicating near there with one of the proposed lines from Dudley or Wolverhampton. A glance at the map will show that this will be the most direct line for the London and Manchester traffic, uniting these two great termini by the shortest practicable route in connexion with existing railwa3 s, will completely .I.e'ommodate the local traffic, and throw opals several extensive Coal fields and some thousand acres of Wood land to Manchester, the Potteries, and other great marts of the kingdom. This Line is also in some of its principal features the same as that already approved of by the Board of Trade, and partially abandoned by the Churnet Valley Company—will not comprise more than fifty miles of Railway, and passing through the centre of the unoccupied part of the district, does not interfere with the Grand Junction or any other existing, Railway. This and the proposed Line from Crewe to Derby will also well acco.nmodate the Potteries, giving to that important locality a direct route to London, Birmingham, and the South, to Liverpool and the North, and to Derby and the East, and will also afford a transit for the Eastern counties traffic from Derby to Manchester. The co-operation of almost all the principal landowners from near Uttoxeter to near Lichfield having been ob tained, this portion of the line may be considered as secure. A most influential Provisional Committee, consisting of land owners and manufacturers, and others locally Interested, will shortly be published. In the meantime references may be made to Matthew Gaunt, Esq., Highfield House, Leek ; or to Thomas Tumor, Esq., Abbots Bromley, near Uttoxeter. BIRMINGHAM, WOLVERHAMPTON, and STOUR VALLEY RAILWAY. The course which it is proposed that this line of railway shall take is along or near the banks of the Birmingham Canal to Wolver hampton, with a branch to Dudley. It is further proposed to carry a line from the above-mentioned line, 3:.;ar Smethwick, by way of Halesowen, Cradley, Stourbridge. and Kidderminster, down the whole length of the Valley of the Stour, to he ju:,etion with the Severn. These lines of railway will afford to the vast population, and varied in lace and manufactures of the districts throuh which they will pass, the cheapest and shortest communication with the ports of London, Hull, and Liverpool, as well as with the large and important districts occupied by the Midland Railways and the North of En•gland The line from Birmingham to Wolverhampton will form a portion of the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Railway, with the existing Com pany for the formation of which satisfactory arrangements have been made. . . The object of the rarties proposing this scheme of railways is to present to the most important manufacturing interest of South Staf fordshire and Worcestershire the greatest facility for the conveyance of their goods to and along the various trunk railways of the king dom at the least possible cost, and no effort will be spared to secure so desirable a result. The Birmingham Canal Company and the London and Birmingham and Shrewsbury and Birmingham Railway Companies have con curred to furnish the means of effecting this undertaking and the btourbritige, Dudley. and Birmingham Railway Company, with their strong local influence, have united their interests to those of this Company. Application will be made to Parliament in the next session for an Act to effect the above purposes. Information may be obtained by applying at the office of the Canal Company in Birmingham, or to Messrs. INGLEBY, WRAGGE, and COPE,) solicitors, and Birmingham.

' Sir George Cockburn had an interview with the Earl of Dalhousie, yesterday, at the office of the Board of Trade, TO THE ELECTORS OF SOTJTHWIRR. GENTLEMEN, THE Death of your lamented Representative, B. WOOD, Esq., has caused a vacancy in the Representation of the Borough of Southwark ; in consequence thereof, I presume to offer my: elf as a Candidate for the honour of being his successor. I am induced so to do by the request of a number of the Liberal Electors of your Borough, who believe that my political opinions will be generally approved of by the majority of the constituency of "outhwark. If this be the case, and I should have the honour of representing you in Par liament, my political conduct would be guided by the principles upon which I acted during the nine years that I was a Member of the House of Commons. I then belonged to that party in Parliament which was called the Radical ; and was a supporter of progressive Reform, and of improving the Institutions of this country. I steadily voted for the Ballot, Triennial Parliaments, Ex tension of the Suffrage, and for the Abolition of the Property Quali fication of Members of Parliament. On every occasion I supported, either by my votes or speeches, the principles of Free Trade; and I may boast that I was one of the first persons who declaredthemselves, in the Horse of Commons, for a Total Repeal of the Corn-la NS. On these, and all similar measures, on all Financial Questions, on all propo sitions to improve the condition and increase the education of the people, on all questions of colonial policy, on all matters concerning Irciard, and on all measures calculated to extend the commerce of this country, to unfetter its industry, and unshackle its trade. my votes have been given on the liberal side ; and so again will they given if I should again sit in the House of Commons as a Represents ti ve of the people. I have thus briefly stated what principles would guide my public conduct, if you should elect me to Parliament. In addition, it would , be my duty to attend to the Parliamentary business of the Borough, and to watch over Its interests : for the due performance of which duty, the best security I can offer you is to mention the fact that I aui coune , ted with the borough of Southwark by the ties of property. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your obedient servant, WILLIAM MOLESWORTH. 1, Lowndes-square, Aug. 14, 184 d. NOTTINGHAM AND MANSFIELD RAILWAY.

(13binivingAut+ LoNDON, FRIDAY. AUGUST 15, 1Q Often as we have had occasion to direct public atten tion to the anomalies of that which, only by a str,tch of extravagant courtesy, can be denominated " low,"—as administered by the magisterial sages of the county and t'ie municipal bench, we have never felt more strongly Called upon to discharge that duty, than by the Roches ter case, to which we devoted a paragraph, headed " Ex traordinary Costs," in our paper of Wednesday last. A man is brought " before a full bench of county magis trates" at Rochester, charged with an offence, the hei nousness of which, no doubt, it must here required all the wisdom of the Kentish squires " in the commission" to deal w ith, all the forms of a petty session to give ade quate effect to the imposing ceremony of trying. He was accused of " having damaged underwood to the amount of one penny, belonging to WILL IAM M ASTERS S MITH , E sq of Canmer." It is well that posterity should be apprised THE S LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 15. 1845 of the " title, style and dignity" of the landed proprietor whose property had been thus flagrantly and extensively invaded. It is well that " Young England" sheald have the enthusiasm of its spirit animated by " a great fact" like this, so proper to confirm its aspirations t'or the times when our country rejoiced in the significant ap pellation of " merry England." What an august specta• cle for the descendants of that peasantry who passed, but a century ago, even, so large a proportion of their leisure in out-door sports and athletic pastimes,—a hat a noble manifestation of the chivalric generosity of the Kentishmen and Men of Kent,—are presented by the trial of such a delinquent as this revived JACK CADE, LI is devastating " GEORGE LOFT" of Meopham. " The judge are ranged—a terrible show :" the case is stated, evi dence is called, and there is damning proof that GEORGE LOFT, being instigated by the author of all evil, has " at the time, and place, and in manner articulate," c‘ m mated the inexpiable trespass and danlge "to the amount of one penny," by cutting and damaging the un derwood. A witness had seen him in the act. The cul prit, over helmed by the enormity and irresistible pro' 'of his guilt, acknowledges his offence. " The case is clear," (as the Alabama Judge thundered in the ear of Silas Fixings, according to the pleasant ballad of the " Alabama Duel,")—the six magistrates who have heard it adjudge LOFT to pay the damages—one penny : toge• ther with sixteen shillings costs. This is an "equitable adjustment" with a vengeance ! The civil injury is assessed at one penny ; the costs — for the law harpies, constables, the clerk of the justices, and the great unknown, who has the residuary and larger interest in these fees,—at exactly ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-TWO TIMES as much as the damages ! That nothing may be wanting to the dignified, humane, and purely disinterested character of the whole proceeding, WILLIAM MASTERS SMITH, Esq., of Canmer, the com plainant or plaintiff, the " wronged one,"—he whose rights of underwood have been thus feloniously and des perately violated to the amount of four farthings, is stated (though this fact does appear incredible) to have been sitting all this time on the bench. In his own per son, this " tine old Kentish gentleman," (as we imagine him to be,) is there—an unbiassed, indifferent, impar tial arbitrator, it may be, or rather (if we may judge by the sentence of the bench), over inclined to extreme forbearance and humanity towards the offender; but, as it provokingly happens, in the triune capacity of plain tiff; judge, and jury, in bis own case:—a magisterial Brahma, from chose triple function and many- hat; ded clutch it was not very likely that this penny marauder should escape. So this council of six condemned the man to pay the Id. in the shape of damages, and the sixteen shillings in the shape of costs, or in default of payment to committal to the House of Correction for one calendar month. The man has not the money, the magistrates have the option, so the prison has the man. WILLIAM MASTERS SMITH, Esq., we are afraid, must now summon up fortitude enough to bear manfully the damage of his underwood, although it is thus ascer tained to amount to one penny, but he may enjoy the proud satisfaction of having provided GEORGE LOFT with subsistence for one whole calendar month, at the expense of the county, indeed, and to be sure only on prison fare. What then? Has he not vindicated the majesty of the law ? Has he not bravely upheld the sacred and indefeasible lights of property? We marvel at the scandalous disl content, the inexcusable surliness, with which the pauper labourer and the lower classes of husbandry regard the circumstances of their own condition in reference to those of the condition in which PROVIDENCE has placed their landlords and employers—the landed aristocracy of their neighbourhoods or districts. That these un reasonable and unreasoning industrial classes should look with a jaundiced eye upon the wealth, the posses sions, the luxury of the rich—should be prone to con sider themselves little cared for and less protected by their superiors—should be apt to consider their "natural protectors" (as these latter term themselves) somewhat more given to listen to the dictates of selfishness and the suggestions of self-interest, than the promptings of an enlightened and enlarged liberality to others, especially to the poor and unemployed around them ; all this is most surprising. What can evince a more anxious soli citude for their moral welfare, and their inflexible per severance in the habitual discipline of honesty than these visitings of criminal derelictions, even where they ex tend to the sacrifice of but one pennyworth of property. At the same time we are somewhat curious to know what it is that large farmers—whether tenants or free holders—and a powerful squirearchy, who are opposed to the repeal of the corn-laws, and to every other measure of that kind which would certainly reduce the price of subsistence to the poor, and multiply the few comforts which the fiscal and political exigencies of the State have left them ; what it is they propose to them selves by the merciless straining of every penal enact ment which can be brought to bear upon offences intrin sically of the most trivial or indifferent character ? We were once weak enough to hope that Parliament would not have separated, notwithstanding the important de mands of the grouse shooting and Continental tour making at this season, without at least passing some measure to reform those statutes thus elaborately dis proportioning penalties to offences and costs to penalties, under which country justices and police magistrates " play such fantastic tricks" as make the wretches weep," and which are destined (we are firmly persuaded), at no distant day, to arouse the indignation and resentment of the public, and to replace such atrocious anomalies by some more consistent, more decent, more equitable scheme of apportioning in every case the punishment to the delinquency. The Universal German Gazette states that,l" Within the last few days ten extensive domains have been pur chased in the Grand Duchy of Posen, and there is every reason to imagine that these acquisitions have been made for the Jesuits. It is well known that Father RooTEAN has been at Flock." It appears, from a letter from Constantinople, inserted in the same paper, that the French Ambassador has re ceived assurances from the Pcirte that the Sheik of the Druses, who killed a French priest, shall be punished, and that the convents shall be indemnified for the inju ries done to them. Accounts from Lisbon to the 9th instant have been received. The election of Deputies to serve for the next four years in the Cortes took place throughout the king dom on the 3d. The supporters of the Cabral Ministry were everywhere returned by large majorities. The QUEEN and Court left the palace of Belem after the elections. They were at Alafra on the 7th. Lisbon was perfectly tranquil ; there were reports, however, of &ileums in the provinces. Madrid journals to the 7th have arrived. The QUEEN leaves St. Sebastian for Pampeluna on the 18th, where the Duke and Duchess DE NEMOURS and the Duke D'AumuLE were expected to arrive on:the 24th. The Duke of SAN CARLOS is charged with making the neces,,ary preparations for their reception. The Tiempo attributes the ill-success of the Spanish negotiations at the Court of Rome to the interference of Cardinal LAMBRUSCHINI, the Pupal Secretary of State. The Fomehto of Bareelona.contains a communication from the Finance Minister, according to which ma chinery may be imported at a duty of 6 per cent,. ad valorem, to be 7 per cent. if carried in foreign bottoms. General CONCHA had resigned his command—a letter from Barcelona of the 9th, says : " The resignation of General Concha produced a great sen sation here. It is said that the principal cause which led to this resolution on the part of the General was the arbitrary arrest of 120 persons by General Narvaez, while General Conchha was at the head of the army, and in pursuit of the insurgents; General Concha, besides, protested against the interference of Chiro,_ who was the agent of the police in the time of the Count d'Espagne, and whom General Narvaez has taken away with him. This man, who has exercised so injurious an influence in Catalonia, has allied himself with the club of ultra-Moderadoes, established at Barcelona to prose cute the Liberals and exercise private acts of vengeance. " M. de Gispert, the ex-political chief, has been succeeded by M. de Enciso, who was political chief at Soria." Letters from Malaga, of the sth of August, represent that town as in a state or commotion in consequence of a rise in the price of provisions of all sorts. CAMINERO, ho had been most active in searching for arms and ammunition, had only found a few old muskets out of repair. He had however caused eleven persons to be arrested in addition to those now in prison. On the Madrid Bourse the Three per Cents. for cash were ; for account, 30g ; the Five per Cents. for account, 22*. We have received the Paris I.apers of the 7th. The Jcpirnal des Debats gives a report of a speech made by M. GutzoT, on Sut:ciay lust, at a dinner give❑ h;na by his constituents at Lisieux. This speecb, which merits an atttntise perusal, %ill be found at length in anther column. It was reported in Paris thAt Marshal SOULT was so shocked at the cruel tyranny of Bucmauro in Algeria—a tyranny exercised not only on the unfortunate Arabs, but on the French themselves—that he had determined to recal him from Algeria. The College of Justice of the colony had remonstrated with the home Government against many of Marshal BUGEAUD'S acts as illegal, and NO sent a memorial to the Minister, claiming his pro tection for the colonists against the Governor. On this subject the Algerie says : " Persons ordinarily well informed announce the recal of Marshal Bugeaud. We believe, however, that the Ministry, uneasy at seeing the Governor-General undertaking a war in Kabylia, in opposition to the will of th e Ch am b er , h as ca ll e d Marshal Bugeaud to Paris under some pretext or other, to pre vent him from engaging further in an undertaking generally blamed and disapproved of. However that may be, Marshal Bugeaud is expected in Paris towards the end of August." The same journal contains a letter from Tunis of the 21st Jul), which confirms the reports of an assemblage of Turkish troops at Tripoli with hostile intentions to 7 wards Tunis. Possession of the island of Gerbis, one of 'lie richest parts of the Tunis regency, is stated to be the object of the Turks. The Bey of TUNIS was pre paring to defend himself. The French had sent the Neptune ship-of-the-line to guard the station at the Goletia at Tunis, and had sent two ships of war to Tripoli. The Duke and Duchess DE NEMOURS, are to leave Bordeaux on the 28th to visit the Queen of SPAIN at Pampeluna. They return on the sth September. The upward movement of public securities expe rienced a slight cheek on the Paris Bourse on Wencsday.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) a a _ The vacancy occasioned by the death of Mr. Benjamin Wood, will undoubtedly be filled by Sir William Molesworth, whose previous services in the cause of liberal government, and whose address now issued, amply satisfy the wishes of a vast majority of the electors. It will be remembered that when the contest took place between Mr. Wood and Mr. Walter, a section of the Radical party coalesced with the Tories in supporting the latter. on the ground of his ultra opposition to the new Poor-law Bill; but that in spite of this, and of a most lavish expenditure of money, the majority for Mr. Wood was about 600, leaving many promises un polled. But now the Liberals of all shades of opinion are united in support of Sir William Molesworth, no other candi date would have the remotest chance. Mr. Jeremiah Pitcher, who has announced his hopes of being selected for the honour, is one of those waverers about whom it is unsafe to assume anything. He would fain be thought to be independent; but if any public act of his may be taken as an index of his political predelictions, his vote for Mr. Baring, in opposition to Mr. Pattison, at the last City election, might be taken in proof of his,Toryim. The Tories, however, disown him, and talk of putting up some more declared and consistent supporter of their principles. Mr. Daniel Whittle Harvey is the third candidate named, but we believe by no means ascertained, as an tecedent to his consenting to stand, must be the vaca tion of his office as Commissioner of the City Police. S►r William Molesworth has the advantage of a very powerful Committee, formed of electors from every district, parochial or ,sectional, in the borough, having canvassing -books al ready prepared, and all the machinery of an election in active operation ; for which himself, and the Liberal party at large, have to thank the Southwark Reform Registration Association composed of a large number of the most active and influential electors. Among many erroneous statements which appear in the Times this morning, and one of which the Morning Advertiser has not escaped, is the assertion that certain pre liminary meetings of the electors had been attended by Mr. Black, the late editor of the Morning Chronicle. That gen tleman has not taken the slightest part in the affair; and it is unaccountable how Sir William Molesvv - ortlf's friend, Dr. J. R. Black, could have been assumed to have any con nexion with the Morning Chronicle, either past or present, as we are assured that his name, on. either occasion, was not even mentioned with reference to that. journal. For our selves, we have the utmost reliance on the prudence and vigour of the Liberal electors of Southwark, and, therefore, on their success. LITERATURE. MY MARINE MEMORANDUM BOOK. In Three Volumes. By Hargrave Jennings. We should be very sorry to see any diminution of the eagerness after, and the taste for, nautical - productions, which characterised the reading world a year or two back. We are so essentially a nautical people, have done so much to render our name memorable on the sea—witness the long list of our naval worthies, and the indomitable spirit and daring energy of our gallant tars—in short, have effected so much to be proud of in our relations with the mighty element, that works which tend to foster and confirm this spirit, and this national bias, as they deserve, every kind of en c(iurag oughtemea to sailors and our s hips are fine meet, . Our sub jects for the novelist, let alone that strong and exciting interest which must always attach to the sea for its own sake. Sea life, in all its phases, and the magnificent ocean, under all its multitudinous changes, present inex haustible treasures to those naturally gifted in their ex ploration. None others should attempt them. With these books we have been greatly pleased. We do not hesitate to say, and we are sure that a perusal will con firm our remarks, that they exhibit first-rate originality and power, and a command of materials, and an ease and finish in style, and a brilliancy of imagination, which we would consider likely to bring them into ex tensive circulation and universal favour. The battle and tile breeze ; scenes at sea ; scenes ashore ; the humours of ship board, and an array of the most amusing and laughter-moving stories, constitute the staple of these volumes. All is well done • and some of the anecdotes afe irresistibly comic. The first volume comprises a story of deep interest, told in the author's happiest man ner, abounding in incident, and well sustained throughout. The description of the chase of the West lndiaman by the privateering man-of-war, and his fierce pursuit across the broad Atlantic, is detailed in such a way that it could fairly stand the test of a comparison with Cooper in his earlier and better works. Mr. Jennings, however, is no imitator. The work is full of original thought, and he possesses in a high degree that quality in which Cooper is lamentable deficient—wit. His pages absolutely sparkle with brilliant passages. Ile has a high poetic feeling. The following passage; for instance, from his observations on the decks, is true poetry, and poetry of a very high order :—" Before the suspected blood-thirsty disposition of one or two of the ships, I saw placed the prudently mollifying intervention afforded by a lowered port, one of the series of shutters which serve as eyelids, closed in I uce to those glaring balls, the A7gus optirs of the batteried ships, wh: se gances are flames." These books are full of amusement and drollery. We might multiply extracts from them. FINE ARTS. PORTRAIT OF MADEMOISELLE CERITO. We have just been favoured with a view - of a splendid engraving by Every, from the original by F. Simoneau, of Antwerp, of a portrait of Mademoiselle Cerito. As a portrait it is most truthful, and as a picture it is a perfect gem. All those who wish to have a reminiscence of the fascinating little " realist" of Naples, who is so soon to quit us, should purchase this beautiful engraving. Simoneau, the artist, was the only instructor of the late Madame Soyer, a lady whose premature loss all lovers of art have never ceased to deplore. The original painting by Simoneau is in the possession of Monsieur Soyer. COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON REGATTA. The ball was well attended, indeed all the nobility in the neighbourhood were attracted to it, amongst whom we noticed the Duke and Duchess of Beaufort and the Ladies Somerset, the Marquis of Blandford, Marquis of Anglesey, the Marquis of Donegal, Lords Wilton, Dillon, and others, amounting. to 330. Dancing wa s kept up with much spirit, and all seemed highly delighted. tin Thursday a splendid silver cup, value 501., was sailed for by large class schooners of 140 tons and upwards. The follow ing splendid yachts started at ten o'clock, with a fine breeze from the N. W.:—Xarifa schooner, 185 tons, the Earl of Wil ton owner ; Gitana schooner, 168 tons, J. Digby Murray, Esq., owner; Galatea schooner, 190 tons, C. B. 51. Talbot, 51. P., owner; Emmeline brigantine, 204 tens, E. N. Harvey. Esq., owner; Zephyretta schooner, 180 tons, Henry Hope, Esq., owner. The Queen's Course, namely, round the Isle o f Wight, passing outside the No-man Buoy and Nab Light-vessel; returning between a vessel with a large union jack at the mast-head and Cowes Castle. The Zephyretta, the favourite, took the lead, and beat down to the Needles, as stated by the tide, which she saved out, as did the Galatea and Gitana. The Xarifa could hardly have been so successful. The Emmeline was considerably astern. There was not suffi • cient wind for the heavier vessels—there was a nice breeze, but the Galatea and the others wanted half a gale. There they are at home, and can show the boasted of " Baltimore clip pers" the way over the waves. They were a fine sight up the back of the Wight, pressed on by wind and t ide. The Zephy retta in at twenty m i nutes p as t six, and the Gitana and Gala tea in sight off Old Castle. A curious discovery was made by Mr. Wright last week among the archives at Southampton, of a book contain ing the original naval laws of that port a. 5 early as the four teenth century. One of them is, that if the majority of the sailors of a vessel on the point of sailing wore of opinion that the wind was unfavourable, and the vessel was wrecked after wards, the captain was responsible for the value of the goods lost. It is supposed that these are the earliest naval laws now extant. MONEY and COMMERt lAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton market at Liverpool yesterday, was very firm. Sales 7,000 b des, at full prices ; 1,000 being on specu lation. Shares were very dull, and there was a decline in prices. We hope it may not be correct, as stated in advices from the Continent, that at the great Zollvertin meeting, now being held at Carlsrhue, Prussia finds itself, on account of its liberal principles, in a decided minority, because the whole weight and influence of that power would be thrown into the reduced duty scale, and the opposition of the other states must waz stronger if, in the present instance, the views of the Berlin Cabinet should be se. aside. If ever the injurious character of arbitrary constitutions was felt, it is in this special instance of commercial relations. Here are the poor folks of half Germany bandied about at the caprice of their princes, petty or great, merely because these are accessible to the narrow-minded influences of a few cramped manufacturers greedy for protection, and apparently the less able to support fair competition, the inure they are bol-tered up. The consumers suffer conse quent both in respect to the price they pay for their menu factim s, and the restriction they put upon the foreign out lets for their corn. The Funds are down a little, and the weather is again the cause. The renewed firmness in the corn mar ket acts as an indicator of rather an unfavourable change in the opinion of the factors since Monday and Wecinesdy last, when wheat receded in value. Consols have been down from 99 1 A to 99 for immediate transfer, and to 99 1 4 % for time, Exchequer-bills have been 495. to 51s. premium. There is some demand for money to-day on ac count of the settlement in the Share market. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 102% 3,4, and the Three per Cents. 99% 3 / 4 . Bank Stock is worth 210%, to 211 1 A. The Foreign Investments have been very inactive, and are rather flat. Spanish Five per Cents. obtain 27 1 / s , and the Three per Cents. 38%.

The Proglessif Cauchois of Fecamp mentions a circum stance which is very curious, if true. Our readers no doubt are aware that a junction between Laffittes' Company and Messrs. Rothschild has lately been talked of, but the paper above quoted asserts that a pigeon fell from exhaustion at a place called Benonville, being no doubt en route for Eng land, and that a paper taken from it announces the fact ef the treaty between the above parties having been actually signed on the 28th July.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS' DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE.-FRIDAY. During the present week the arrivals of Wheat, of home produce, coastwise, have been on a most extensive scale, they having exceeded those of any similar period during the whole of the present year, by a considerable quantity. Th e total supply has exceeded 15,000 quarters, chiefly from Essex, Sent, and Cambridgeshire. In addition to that large quantity upwards of 2,000 quarters have come to hand by land-carriage. As might be expected, the show of samplea of the above description of Grain on sale here was large ; still, however, there was an evident improvement in the de mand. At the commencement of the market several specu lators made their appearance, and who purchased nearly the whole of Monday's unsold suppli:s at that day's quotations ; hence the market wax speedily re lieved of the balk of its arrivals. Yet the millers, as for the last fortnight, were very cautious in their operations, and no advance on previous rates could be obtained by the factors. The advices which have reached us from nearly the whole of our large grain districts, are of an unfavourable character. The prevailing damp and otherwise unseasonable weather is much complained of; consequently, though the cutting of wheat has been parti a lly commence d in Devonshire, Kent, Essex, &c., very little progress has as yet been made in the fields. The imports of foreign Wheat are on the increase, they having amounted since our last to 11,340 quarters, on a portion of which home consumption duty has been paid. Holders of fine parcels would not sell to-day, except at an advance of is per quarter, and at which the market closed firmly. Yesterday the duty on foreign Wheat declined to 19s, and it is pretty evident it will shortly re cede to 15s per quarter. in Corn under lock a few specu lative purchases were again effected, at extreme quotations 'We had a fair show of Foreign Barley, but that of English was small. Grinding parcels moved off steadily at full prices, while the value of malting and distilling sorts was well supported. The arrivals of Malt this week have amounted to only 2,860 quarters. The best superfine white qualities sold freely ; other kinds slowly at late rates. Of English Oats the supply did not exceed 1,560, but of Irish and Foreign we received upwards of 14,000 quarters. The Oat trade may be considered steady, at full prices Foreign Beans being in great abundance, the demand was in a sluggish state, and prices were with difficulty supported. The sale for Peas was firm, at full currencies The same ' remark may be applied to Flour. The Seed market was ' somewhat inactive, and, in some instances, lower rates were submitted to.

For the time of yekir,The74l7l.7oF.Beasts on offer here this morning was, tuirably good, yet the beef trade was tornewhat active, at fully Monday's quotations. From Hol land we received 200 Beasts and 340 Sheep; from Germany, 30 Beasts; and from Scotland, 200 Scots. The numbers of Sheep were small, while the sale for them was steady at un altered prices.

His Honoui theNice..Channellor of England sat in his pri vate room, in Lincoln's Inn, to-day, for the purpose of hearing any applications that might press. COPYRIGHT OF DESIGNS ACT.-THOMPSON BROTHERS AND SONS V. STRACHAN AND OTHERS. Mr. ROMILLY (with whom was Chambers), applied ex parte, on behalf of the plaintiffs, whe are extensive calico printers carrying on business at Clitheroe, for a special injunction to restrain the defendants, Messrs. Holt and Bond, who are calico printers at Manchester, from printing and pub lishing the pattern of certain prints on calico, for the inven tion, publishing„and seliipg of which the plaintiffs, under the Copyright of .Designs .Act s , , had a protection of nine months. and also to restrain Strachan and Roan, two of the other de fendants, who carry on the business of warehousemen in Friday street, in the City, from selling any of the prints, which were copies or imitations of those invented by the plaintiffs. From the statements of the Learned Counsel it appeared that in the month of April last the plaintiffs invented a pattern for ladies' dresses, which they denominated a coral ornamented check, which had been very much admired, and for which there was so great a demand that the defendant thought fit to pirate it ; immediately upon discovering this the plaintiffs took proceed. ings against the defendants, and ultimately the present bill was filed for the purpose of obtaining an injunction to restrain such piracy. His 'Hostonft s :,wlth:ettt the least hesitation, granted the in junction. , No other applications of any interest were made before his Honour during the remainder of the day. SECUNDARIES.—(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Secondary POTTER.) ELLIOTT V. TAYLOR. The plaintiff in this action is a surgeon and apothecary in Finsbury Pavement; the defendant is an eating-house-keeper in the Minories. The claim was for S9l. for medicines sup plied to defendant. Mr. TA LOR, the plaintiff's solicitor, deposed to a conversa tion with the defendant, when the latter admitted the debt, and that he was furthor indebted in four bills of exchange. Mr. HORRY, fotthe defendant, elicited that the venue had originally been laid at-Bi the object was to expedite the trial. Both parties residing in London, the venue might have been laid in Surrey and tried at Croydon. Defendant did not plead to the action, and he (Mr. Taylor) then took out a sum mons to change the venue to London. Mr. Horner, assistant to the plaintiff, was called, and proved the making up of the medicines generally. Draughts were charged at Is. 6d. each; he could not readily say what the in gredients were, as they stood " repeated"—" repeated"—and he could not find the first. The SECONDARY said, in all probability the ingredients and advice were relgtr utyooh`e - r.—( Laughter.) The witne.i:Sairr only : View what was charged to patients for medicihe, and'n9o4.intrinsic value. He was nut in trade on his own account yet.—( Laughter.) Mr. HORRY then submitted, as a point of law, that the plaintiff suing 8.3 a surgeon and apothecary could not recover ; that as a surgeon he could not. charge for rne:licines, except it was incidental to an operation; and that his character as apo. thecary.was merged in the higher one of surgeon. No surgical operation had been proved. The SECONDA KY said he would take a note of the objection, but could not agree. Mr. TAYLOR objected. The SECONDARY said, there was a great difference between taking a note, and reserving the writ ; he should not stay the writ should the verdict be averse to defendant, as a summons might be taken out. . Mr. HORRY then urged that the defendant's not pleading ought not to be taken as an admission of the debt, but he had been obliged to abandon his case through the venue being laid at Bristol; although, when h e d i d not pl ea d, plaintiff could alter it lo London. Had defendant pleaded and lost his case at Bristol, he might have beer. subjected to animadversion, and perhaps punishment, for putting plaintiff to unnecessary expense. The Learned SECONDARY thought that that fact had nothing to do, with the fact of whether medicine had been sup plied or its value.—Verdict for the full amount. PA ACE CO URT.-(T HIS DAY.) FILLING F. HANNELL.-UEFUSAL TO PAY A DEBT TINDER. 201 In this case it appeared that the plaintiff, who is a coal dealer at Paddington, had supplied the defendant from time to time with coals to the amount of 16/. 16a. Plaintiff had repeatedly applied for the cash, but was often put off with nothing but promises. At length, however, defendant, addressing plaintiff, said," As the debt was under 20!., he could not think of pay ing it at all." The defendant was undefended by counsel. The CHAIRMAN (Mr. Brent) having addressed a few words to the jury, the latter returned a verdict for the plaintiff; the whole amount to be paid instanter, with costs.

She then stated back on her return, and accomplished the run down to Green vi ich in 33 minutes. '1 he engines of these beautiful vessels are constructed by Messrs. W.
