It will be seen by our advertising columns that the Orleans and Bordeaux Company is fairly before the public. The Anglo-French Company, formed for obtaining the line from Orleans to Tours (under the impression that that section -alone of the great line from Paris to the Spanish frontier, and upon which the Government works are nearly finished,would be proposed this year), profiting by a large excess of capital for that section, and encouraged by the very favourable terms offered to them by the Minister, have extended their tenthr so as to embrace the ninety additional leagues to Bor deaux. The whole length from Orleans to Bordeaux is 120 leagues, or 300 English miles. The first section, from Orleans to Tours (70 miles), might be opened .to the public in the course of the summer of next year. This Company differs from most of the others hitherto pro jected in two or three important particulars. First, they ars wholly independent of their bankers, either for supplying the caution-money required by the French Government, or any portion of their capital. In France, the bankers (as the chief projectors) rule the Companies : in this case the Company governs the bankers, who are strictly their agents only in financial matters, and who are very much obliged to them for their custom both in Paris and the provinces. Secondly, the stock is fairly offered to the public at large, and ample time allowed for consideration and decision, with a certainty that impartial justice will be dealt out to all in the distribution of the shares. This contrasts honourably with the system of subscription lists, opened and closed within 48 hours, and no more shares to be had, except at a premium ! This latter system is sure to re-act upon a Company, and in a recent instance it is already beginning to be felt. Lastly, and not least in importance, this Company is based mainly upon the support of local influence in the composi tion of the French portion of its capital, and upon the names of sound, practical, commercial men ' by which the Company is represented, as soumissionairet, or demandants of the base of the line.

THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY who are bound by their deed of constitution not to dispute any policy, unless they can prove that it was obtained by fraudulent misrepresentation ; the great aim and object having been to render Life Policies COMPLETE SECURI TIES and NEGOTIABLE DOCUMENTS, which shall owe their value to the certainty of the contracts upon which they are founded, and be independent of the liberality or caprice of those who shall be In the management of the affairs of the Company when the claims arise; and for this purpose the Company have, by a clause in their deed of constitution, unhesitatingly deprived themselves of the power of objecting to any policy, unless they undertake to prove that it was obtained from them by. fraudulent misrepresentation. The regulations common to all other Life Companies, which make the validity of assurance contracts dependent upon the perfect correct ness of the many statements required from a proposer for a Life Policy, and which have given rise to almost all the questions which have been argued in the Courts, and to many extra-judicial com promises, are thus entirely abrogated; and nothing but fraud, proved to have been committed against them, can vitiate a policy granted by this Company. THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY from whom the assured on the mutual principle, receive the whole of the mutual accumulations, and also a guarantee from the Shareholders for the sums assured. THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY who bind themselves to pay the sums in the policies, although the debts for which they were effected shall have been liquidated before the claims arise. The Company considering it only just towards the assured that where premiums have been paid for assuring a given amount, that amount should be paid ; and they undertake to do so without reference to the state of the accounting between the assured an his debtor. THIS IS ALMOST THE ONLY COMPANY who grant in favour of creditor% whole world policies, whereby the debt is secured, although the debtor should go beyond the limits of Europe. The premiums calculated according to the Carlisle Tables, are lower than usual upon young lives, where participation in the profits is not required ; and for short assurances, which, at the option of the assured, may be continued for life, the rates are as low as a due re gard to complete security will permit.

The Half-premium plan of Assurance, as practised by this Company, thus enables persons to retain to their own use the one-half of the premiums for the first seven years, at 51. per cent. interest. Thus, suppose the or dinary premium for an assurance of 5001. to be 10/., the first pay ment by the half-premium plan will be five guineas, being the one half of the 10/., and interest for the retained half; and, if death should occur in the first year, the sum of 5001. would be paid less the 51. retained. The assured may thus have the use for the first year of 51.; for the second, of 101. ; and so on till the end of the seventh year, when the retained sums, amounting to 351., may either be repaid, or retained at 51. per cent. interest until death, when the 351. would be subtracted from the 500/. then payab. • Vthe Company.

For while we are studying " grace" to adorn. We must not forget " use" while the garment is worn. Now the costumes which MOSES and SON have to sell Embrace these two f.atures remarkably well. - The beautiful "grace" which the gannents afford Can never be equalled at home or abroad. The style of the clothing is so recherché, That it could not but please such as "Count d'Orsay." And gentlemen often with pleasure admire The elegant style of the MOSES' attire. But,while we speak thus of the styles we produce, We are partly forgetting their wonderful " use." Let it not be supposed that we overlook this— For this is a point where there's nothing amiss. We hardly know which is deserving most praise, The " use" of the gash or the "grace" it displays. Let the public decide such a query themselves, By obtaining the clothes which ate stored on our shelves. They will then see the source of the fame that is won Be the "Pride of the Tailors"—E.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS FROM THE EVENINQ PAPERS OF_SA.TURDAY. STANDARD.—The approaching Exeter election claims, we think, from the public a degree of atten tion beyond what is generally due upon such occa sions. The character of such a man as Sir William Follett does not concern merely the place of his birth, the city that he has already represented, or even the distinguished profession of which he has long been, according to the acknowledgment of all men, the most brilliant ornament. The cha racter of such a man belongs to the whole country ; it is not the least valuable of our possessions, and the country is both . damaged and disgraced when such a possession is treated as of little worth. It is the boast of our free Constitution and of our social system, that a man may in England advance himself from the humblest rank of life to the very highest honours of the State, by his own unaided honourable exertions. We use the word honourable emphatically, be cause here, in truth, lies the grand distinction. In every country, even in countries governed by the tyrants of the East, men can advance by means less than honourable, and often advance themselves with a rapidity proportioned to their i n difference in the use of means ; but it is the pride of England, that advancement is open to those most scrupulous and delicate in the steps of their ambition, and that an honourable ascent is the only secure one. Of this truth it is scarcely possible to find a more striking ex ample than in the person of Sir William. The son of a gentleman of respectable but of middle rank, he has, by the exercise of his rare talents and in domitable industry, in 20 years from his call to the bar, wrought his way to a position in his profes sion and in the country which would be very in adequately estimated by the official s t a ti on th a t he has won, though that is the highest to which the ambition of a practising lawyer can aspire. If you would ascertain what is Sir William Follett's real rank .as lawyer, statesman, and gentleman, ask in Westminster Hall, has so great a lawyer appeared there in the memory of any man living; has a greater ever appeared there ? Ask in the House of Commons, has any practising ttaor lawyer at all approaching to Sir William Follett' s p ro f ess i ona l emi nencein thatpsa Parliament, ieol s ev s e beipnys either y rt, ask d u \ hr the Attorney-General s e o r e powerful in 'Westminster n i e m y r G e es Hall,snieo r n a o i n rs known, and prosecute the inquiry indiscriminately among Conservatives, Whigs, Radicals, and Chartists, whether a man of honour more strict, morals more pure, or manners more amiable has ever defied and distanced envy by his talents ? 'We can truly say that SirW. Follett is nearly the only public man, of whom we never heard an unkind or disrespectful word spoken by any than of any party. Such is the gentleman who, in consequence of the favour conferred upon him by his Sovereign, solicits a re-election by the constituency that he has already, served—receiving and reflecting honour—in two or three Parliaments. It is said that the state of the Learned Gentleman's wealth—which, though not alarming, is delicate—for bids his undertaking a personal canvass. Surely, the generous feeling of the citizens of Exeter must in such a case render a personal canvass superfluous. Sir William Follett is in principles and conduct" without shadow of change," the same Sir William Follett whom the citizens of Exeter returned to Parliament by a great majority in 1835, in 1837, and again in 1841. The only change in him is, that he has gTeatly extended his reputation, added to its lustre, and thus augmented the honours of his native county, which in another age will add his to the rich catalogue o f ill us t r i ous n ames of which the men of. Devon a re na t ura lly and justly proud. An opposition to Sir 'William Follett is, however, threatened—an opposition we must think insulting to the sense and honour of the electors of Exeter, and rendered especially disgusting by its utter hopeless ness, and by the supposed inability of the Attorney- General, from t emporary i n di spos ition, to fight t his battle in person. The Opposition candidate is said to be General Briggs. Who is General Briggs ? We look in vain to th e pages o f P o l e , Prince, Ris don, Dunsford, Carew, and Polwhele for evidence of any connecti on o f t h e em i nen t h o use of Briggs with the county of D evon. W e ll, b u t the candidate is a General : his name, however, does not shine in any page of the annals of the Peninsular war, or in the glorious roll of the Waterloo heroes. He is an Indian general ; but the military history of India is apparently as negligent o f his merits as the military annals of Europe, or as the chronicles of Devon are of his lineage. He is a General, and that most inconsi derable of all things----an unknown, undistinguished General. High military rank, associated with obscu rity, perfectly realises the figure of " the little statue upon the mighty. p e d es t a l" which grows less by its elevation. We can respect an old soldier, su baltern or captain, of whose name we never heard before; because, however important their services, however signal th e i r ga ll antry , b o th may have passed unnoticed in the crowd ; but we cannot extend the same charity to an unknown General, for all a General's exploits are sure to be trumpeted, and when we hear for the first time of a General, we are disposed to set him down with the class spoken of by Frederick • the Great. " These fellows," said the sarcastic hero, "have not as much claim to favour as my baggage mule, which has seen more service than any of them, and has fully as much sense and spirit. Their sole plea of merit is that they have contrived to keep a long time out of the way of being knocked on the head—a caution for which the Sovereign that must feed and pay them has little reason to be grateful." Until we hear what are the services of General Briggs we shall without hesitation assign him to this class. Meanwhile let the electors of Exeter decide between their late accomplished, able, and faithful represen tative and this intruder. - - GLOBE.—The Times City article puts forth the following statement, as serving towards the expla nation of the fall of more than 1 per cent. within these few days, in Consols: — " As it appears that the greater part of ! the sales have originated with brokers ' who usually act for th e S cotch banks, it has been conjectured that the ve r y sa gacious managers of those institutions have obtained some scent of the nature of Sir R. reels new meas ures re l a ti ve to banking, which he is to communicate after the budget, on the 30thinstant, which induces them to take up a defensive position, and by selling their stock to provide themselves with a large amount of dis posable funds to meet the emergency. The point on which they are most apprehensive is the circulation of their small notes ; and should these be withdrawn, in c order to assimilate the Scotch curreney o w n ' l i y th b th e at ob of the rest of the United Kingdom, their place must b ta e in s e u d p b p y lie a d sa w le it o h f stogeokld,and Bankwhieh o a f n England notes." It may in some degree appear to confirm the con jectured surmises of the Scotch bankers, that Sir Robert Peel has shown something like a small-note phobianootens a power, which (under the condition severalof occasions ; and has att r ib u t e d to small convertibility, and free competition in banking) we cannot conceive as belonging to them, whether for good or evil. On the last day of the session of 1842, Sir Robert Peel, after remarking on the tendency of his tariff to mitigate the existing distress, concluded by saying—" I admit that there are modes by which prosperity by the issue of 1/. earteeamtepoararteymppororaspry er ity might be created. I might notes, and by encouraging the Bank to make large issues of paper ; but such a prosperity would be wholly delusive. It is much wiser, in my opinion, to abstain from the application of the stimulus." This is quite the style of .ZEolns (or Sir Jabesh Windbag) with bladders full of that commodity which mankind were so anxious to raise. Mr. Tooke, in his recent pamphlet entitled "An Inquiry into the Cur rency Principle," remarks on this magnificent piece of flatulence of. the Prime Minister, "At the time when Sir Robert Peel made this reillark—nAm°lY, in August, 1842—the rate of interest had fallen below what it had been for several years before, and most assuredly nothinc , like a return of pros perity, however short-lived, had yet manifested itself. He cannot, therefore, any longer hare sup posed, whatever may have have been his impression when examining Mr. Page two years before, the rate of interest being then still comparatively high, that mere advances on securities, that is, loans or discounts by the Bank (always assuming that the securities are un exceptionable), could have the desired effect. How he would have proposed the extra issue to be made, with the view of creating temporary prosperity, does not ap pear." There is no reasoning with a fixed idea; and if Sir Robert Peel has a fixed idea about one-pound notes, he has probably given it, by this time, an apartment for life in the structure of his brain. In that case we take leave to consider him not a whit less mad about currency, in his way, than the Brummagem men in theirs. Time will soon show whether this is the case. Meanwhile, we will trouble the Minister to -take along with him the fact that, while the number of banks in Scotland has in creased, the notes in circulation have diminished. The same thing might be said of the country circula tion in England. If Sir Robert Peel is really going to take the field against Scotch and Joint-stock Banks, having for his banner the ragged petticoat of the Old Lady of Threadneedle-street (no embroidered garment of a Holy Virgin that), why, we can only say we wish him joy of this new and most gratuitous " difficulty" to his Government I CRITICAL STATE OF CUBA. (From the Anti::Stavery Reporter.) - The intelligence from Cuba, brought by the last mail, is one of the deepest interest ; and, while it is calculated, on the one hand, to awaken sympathy for the suffering negroes, is not less calculated, on the other, to inspire animating hopes of some salutary change. It appears that the alarm excited by the two insurrections of the slaves in the neigh bourhood of Matanzas, in November last, has induced a course of extreme severity, not only towards the parties known to have been im plicated, but towards the negroes in general. The Government and planters have made ex tensive and rigorous inquiries, with a view to ascer tain whether any concert existed among the slaves, and, if so, to what'objects it was directed; and it is said that a negress on one of the five sugar estates which followed the movement of the Triumvirato (the sugar estate on which the revolt commenced) has re vealed to her master what in the letters is called " a dreadful plot." In consequence of this there have been arrested a large number of negroes, together with three white men, the latter of whom were put in prison at Matanzas. More than fifteen hundred slaves were summoned, in order to witness the execution of sixteen of their companions, with the view of inspiring terror ; but it is stated that these men went to their death with such an air of intrepidity and triumph, that the effect pro duced on the spectators was the opposite of that which was intended. From this it has resulted that the Government has refrained from further public execu- tions, and has rather given the negroes over in a mass to be punished by their masters at pleasure, and with as little noise as possible. The consequence of such a measure may well be imagined, and yet imagination must fail to realise it. The resentment of the planters, aggravated by their fears, is without bounds, and murderous cruelties are practised without scruple on every hand. Many slaves have already died under the lash, and the whole island is said to be deluged with blood. The investigations of the Government have elicited the fact that four or five large estates between Guines and Melena had been implicated in the plot said to have been discovered. From the uniform declarations of the negroes, it appears that the opinion has spread among them that they either are free or ought to be so. Some are persuaded that the Queen of Spain has sent out two cartas to the Governor, giving them their freedom; some have been told that they are free, as having been imported since 1820, and therefore con trary to the treaty with England ; and some have arrived at the noble sentiment that they ought to be free, because they are men as well as their masters. No doubt can be entertained that the emancipation of the slaves in the British islands has become the primary source from which these ideas have ema nated ; and the prevalence of them among the slaves in Cuba demonstrates at once the impossibility of pre venting their diffusion, and the impossibility likewise of preventing their influence wherever they are dif fused. They are now permanent elements in the condition of Cuba, of a far more serious kind than have ever yet impregnated the community. Several free negroes are reported to have been implicated in the plot, and its object is said to have been known by all the negroes in the country. The destruction of so many slaves, while it must inflict on the planters a heavy loss of property, must at the same time greatly reduce the amount of labour available for the cultivation of the estates, and on this account it might be supposed that the de mand for fresh ones would be increased. The alarm felt by the planters may, consequently, be measured by the fact that they will not add to the number of their slaves. In the midst of this excite ment the brig Palmyra has arrived from Africa with - a cargo of slaves, belonging to the notorious Pedro Blanco, to the number of eleven hundred and four, and not one of them can find a purchaser. Five hun dred of them are in a baracoon near Havannah, where they cannot be sold; and five hundred are distri buted among some of his friends, who are to have their labour for their keep. In one word, consterna tion reigns in Cuba. Already a reduced crop of sugar is anticipated, and the value of real property is reduced almost to zero. The Captain-General does not dare either to disseminate his troops or to allow the organisation of local militias. He has con tented himself with purchasing several hundred iron chains for the feet, and distributing them among the plantations ! In their distress, the immediate and most urgent cry of the planters is, " Stop the slave trade ; bring us no more negroes !" But to this the Captain-General will lend no ear. The petitions on this subject, of which our readers have already heard, were got up and presented to him by men of the first rank and in fluence, some of them nobles of Spain ; but he re ceived them with the most repulsive discourtesy. It seems that a political feeling is artfully connected with this subject ; and that the Government chooses to suspect all who object to the slave trade of dis affection to Spain, and a desire after the political in dependence of Cuba. The real reason, however, why even the present calamities cannot inter rupt the slave trade is, that it yields such immense wealth to the functionaries who possess the govern ment, and who are largely bribed by half-a-dozen desperate speculators to connive at its continuance. Another circumstance indicates the infatuation of the Government. Amidst the state of things we have faintly described, the Court abandons itself en tirely to pleasure. Grand balls and splendid amuse ments are the order of the day. The city of Havannah is represented as " mad with rejoicing," in order to celebrate the arrival of the young Queen of Spain at her majority ! And to crown this melancholy business with an element almost too farcical for the connection in which we are obliged to place it, the Government of Spain has sent out a royal order, constituting five per sons into a Committee, to investigate the truth of the allegations made by the English Government as to the continuance of the slave trade, and " if existing (!), to check it by suitable restrictions, not inimical to commerce and agriculture." Of this Committee the Captain-General is President; and the other parties named are Don Joaquim Gomez, the Marquis de las Delicias (well-known partisans of the slave trade), Don Juan Montalue, the Count de Vervandina, Don Rafael de Quesada, brother to t he celebrated Genera, Quesada, and the Marquis de Donadieu.

Woodstock, Apil 19.1844." BANK OF ENGLAND CHARTER. The time is drawing near when Sir Robert Peel must break his protracted silence respecting the mea sures to be proposed to Parliament, in connection with the approaching expiration of the Charter of the Bank of England. If the rules which the Prime Minister prescribes for others could for a moment be supposed applicable to himself, we might wonder that the declaration of his intentions on a subject of such magnitude should be so long deferred. He has recently, in une quivocal language, stated to the House of Com mons what he thinks of those who delay the dis cussion of important measures till the concluding months of the session of Parliament. If the repre • sentatives of Ireland pray for a few days longer to confer with their countrymen on a proposition which is to convert their national representation into an engine for registering the edicts of the Orange landed proprietary, he gives a grumbling acqui escence, but under protest, and with an express stipulation that no one shall hold him respon sible for whatever may be the consequence of such blameable procrastination. But it would seem that in his judgment delay is an evil only when it is to be employed in deliberation ; when his purposes have been made known, he deems it im possible that the nation should require any length of time for the consideration of them. But he in variably reserves the declaration of those purposes to the latest possible moment. It is becoming the practice of the Government to have only one of its measures before the public at a time, withholding, if possible, until that one is out of danger, or re jected, or withdrawn, all knowledge of those which are to follow. The Bank Charter question has not taken the Government by surprise. Since the last renewal, in 1833, it has been known to every one that this year, if not sooner, would be the tinie to legislate on the subject. Having ample time to prepare, Minis ters accordingly gave early note of preparation. The settlement of the Currency was among the promises in the Queen's Speech ; and, certainly, those promises were neither so many nor so brilliant as to account for any tardiness in determining how they were to be fulfilled. If the Ministers had not made up their mind, during the recess, what measure they should submit to Parliament on this subject, they must be incapable of making it up, on reasonable grounds, at all ; and if they had, what prevented them from at once introducing their Bill, that its principles and provisions might have been canvassed, by competent persons, during the ten weeks and upwards that have since elapsed, and the minds of Parliament and the public prepared for an adequate discussion, before the month of June, when, as Sir Robert Peel tells us, it becomes a question what portion of the Government measures the Go vernment intends to abandon ? Instead of this, Ministers have maintained that perfect silence which they seem to regard as characteristic of statesmanship ; and we do not believe that there is one, even of their Parliamentary supporters, who can surmise, on just ground, what their pro position will be. The time, however, is past when Sir Robert Peel's silence was supposed, even by his own party, to conceal some great mystery of State craft. He profited by this delusion while he could; but, like most of the presages on which he subsisted while out of place, it did not survive a year after his accession to office. Most persons are now convinced that when he says nothing, he has nothing very valuable to say ; that, as was formerly observed of another political character, when he shakes his head, there is nothing in it. From the remarkable absence of interest, and even of curiosity, which prevails in almost all quar ters concerning the promised measure—a state of the public mind so unlike that which has so often before been experienced on similar subjects—it may be inferred that, in the opinion of the public, Ministers are not likely to propose any material alteration in what exists ; but will renew the Charter of the Bank of England, on its present footing, without extension, but also without curtailment, of any of its exclusive privileges. This conjecture is doubtless a very probable one. That a Minister will do nothing at all, when not urged to action by some powerful pressure, is generally a safe enough guess. But still this is only . a presumption, and sometimes fails. What a Minister will never voluntarily do, is to move in any direction that conflicts with the inte rests on which he relies for support. But where none of these interests are implicated, the habitual disposition of official men to leave things alone alternates, especially since the Reform Bill, with a rather strong occasional inclination to signalise themselves by meddling. One of the principal effects of that memorable measure, and of the general break-up of old ideas and associations which accom panied it, was to diffuse a notion much more widely than ever before, that the business of a Government was not to sit still and receive the taxes, but to look out in all directions for all means which could be discovered of conferring benefit on the community. The demand for improvement, and the spirit of it, have been in far more active operation upon the minds of rulers in the last eight or ten years than formerly. But as the circumstances which stimulated the desire for improved legislation could not all at once confer the capacity of it upon men who had been occupied all their lives with any kind of objects and ideas rather than those which would have qualified them for such a function, they are apt to come to their new task with minds rather ill prepared; and the very men who, when their purpose is to maintain things unaltered, hare at their fingers'-ends all the, common places deprecatory of "speculative changes," are often found, when they think the mii the :crudest and come for being reformers, to be rea dy: dupes a most superficial theories. We confess that in the case which has led us i n t o this line of remark, our fears are chiefly of this latter kind. The present system if it can be so galled, of the currency is, doubtless, far from perfect, as is implied in the fact, that it is a medley of several sys. sems, founded on conflicting principles. But we be lieve that the amount of practical evil fairly attri butable to its defects has been enormously exaggerated by most writers on the subject; while we con fidently affirm, that no theory which has been pro pounded for its improvement is sufficiently matured, or has obtained that general sanction from the opinion of those who are entitled to be considered authorities, which would justify Parliament in making any considerable changes on the faith of such a theory. Yet w e f ee l by no means certain that some attempt of this nature lfth will . not, on the present occa sion, be made. is at no f strong direc tion of public sentiment ere favour of such changes, neither is there any strong disinclination o to them while, such i s th e diversity of individual opinion on the subject, and so much that is plausible may be said in favour of almost every view, that scarcely any plan could be proposed of which, if brought forward by Government, it could be affirmed beforehand to be im possible that a considerable section of the mercantile public might be induced to give it their support. — Chronicle.

The pay of a gentleman-at-arms is, we believe, 70/. per annum, and this of a -eontan of the guaal aboutrthe same amount.- Of the French party, one is ii country banker, and Presi dent of the Tribune of Commerce of his city—a court which pronounces upon all suits and questions of a commercial na ture, and of which men only of the very first character for integrity and intelligence are chosen to the presidency by their fellow-citizens. The second is a member of an ancient and wealthy family, proprietors of extensive estates, large forests, and various minerals—himself the chief partner amongst them, and the manager, also of two of the largest iron works in central France, in which none but the best and highest priced de scription of iron is produced. It will be readily seen that he must almost of necessity, be a good man of business. The English interests are most efficiently represented in the person of Mr. William Mackenzie, of Liverpool, whose well-known celebrity as the constructor of various extensive canal and railway works in Great Britain, has been further increased by the colossal works he has already executed, and has now on hand in France. The firm of which he is the head (Mackenzie and Brassey) constructed the whole of the works on the Paris and Rouen Railway, amounting to up wards of 1,000,0001., and finished them within two years, under considerable disadvantages from delays and obstruc tions to the more rapid progress which they would have made. They have contracts for works now on the Rouen and Havre line, to the extent of 600,000/. and upwards. They have undertaken to construct the whole of the works on the line from Lancaster to Carlisle, in conjunction with Mr. John Stephenson, of Derby, another first-class contractor, both as to capital and experience ; and they have, moreover, large interests in manufacturing concerns in England and in France. The names of such representatives of a Company, com bining, as they all do, ample means with great practical experience as men of business, and an intimate acquaintance with all that relates to railways, cannot fail to inspire public confidence in the soundness of'this undertaking. Indeed, the large extent to which Mr. Mackenzie himself, and his friends and connections, are known to be interested, is a sufficient assurance upon that head. In good truth, under the present system the least productive of the French lines cannot be a bad investment ; but there are advantages pecu liar to this line which, we doubt not, will in due time be brought under the notice of those interested. We understand it is intended in this Company to have a Committee of Management, composed at first of four, and ultimately of six acting Directors, whe will reside at various points on this line, and devote the whole of their time to the daily superintendence of the affairs of the Company, subject to the supreme control of the General Board. The Directors, first ten, and ultimately sixteen in number, will be chosen in equal proportions from amongst the largest and most eligible shareholders, both in England and France.

SR valence of robberies in th e Strand, by T D women AN town,p who are continually stopping STAND.—The pre valencere for the and annoying passengers, calls most vigilant watch. About eleven o'clock on Thurs day evening , '1 as Jr. Charles Robinson, a young gentleman, residing at 27, Charles -street, Middlesex Hospital, was pass ing along the Strand, near to Surrey-street, he was accosted by a female, wh o i m p or t une d him to accompany her home. The young man, who has the misfortune to have a dreadful impediment in Isis speech,which prevents him commencing a word for full a minute, attempted ,to push on and deny her; but when at the top of Surrey-street, she pulled him down, and in a moment took from his pocket a canvas bag, contain ing 461., viz., four 5/. notes, and twenty-six sovereigns, which 1 he had received from an agent in Idol-lane. She directly ran off, and when the young man attempted to follow her, a man stopped him, and said he was sorry for the robbery, but he would du his best to discover the thief, and asked if he knew the number of the notes ? The young man was much pleased at his kindness, and they went together to the person in Idol-lane, whom Mr. Robinson had received the money from, and who was agent of his father, where it was first suspected that his companion was in the plot from his a ttempt to stop the prosecutor in pursuit. Giving no name or direc tion, he was given into the custody of the City p olice, where he now remains. On the same night, as Mr. Fiulayson, clerk in the National Debt. office, Old Jewry, was passing Charing-cross to the Strand, several women of the town g a thered round him, and in a moment his watch guard was cut, and his gold chain and watch, valued at 8/., as well a s his purse and money , were immed iately gone. He seized one woman, and held her, but a fellow who was in the plan came behind him, pinioned his arms, and thus forced him to let the female go. She ran off up Cockspur-street, and got away before the police could get hold of her. Mr. Finlaysen knocked the fellow down who held him, and he was taken into custody.
