Amon the numerous railway publications lately produced, there Is not one which Seems to meet the necessities of the UNIVER:',AL INTEREST created by the present extraordinary movement iii the extension of railway locomotion. They are all exclusively class papers, and convey no other information than that which immedi ately concerns, individually or collectively, those who are wholly absorbed in railway affairs. But railways are now a catholic, not a class interest ; they have become the daily concern of an entire people; scarcely a man ce business, of whatever class or wherever tak p aortr professionally—not the te ssi o e n r a e t a h t , _ r a n t 0 17 az undertakings located, h of as thehe been day ie called ;—not nP 'si practically t(' the exclusion or suspension of his ordinary pursuits but . nexion with that which constitutes his locum stands in the great social scale of the country. The present - Railway Papers are not adapted to the imperative wants of the public at large ; they are instituted to subserve the ob jects of a class, not the interests of a community. The public, in the most comprehensive sense of the term, will henceforth have a permit nen t interest in RAILWAY INFORMATION ; and, to combi ne t h at information, rendered Italy and accurately, with the GEN RAL E NEWS - OT? THE DAY—in which they have also an interest—is the design of THE RAILWAY COURIER AND STOCK-EXCHANGE PRICE-CURRENT. But it is intended that thii Journal shall be in advance of its Con temporaries even in the supply of Railway Intelligence : it will , con min the most ample and authentic Share Lists, in the form of a PRICE-CURRENT, which will present , atleading one view, the simulta neous closing prices of the London and the Provincial Share at I iver that is, the Scrip quotations , Markers of the previous night; te as those of the London pool, Manchester, Leeds, &c.—rendered as la c before the open- Stock-Exchange--will be in the hands of the publi ing of the market en the morning of Phblicati°-• n In so far will the RAILWAY COURIER AND STOCK-EXCHANGE PRICE-CUR RENT serve the purposes of the Metropolitan public. • For the Country there will he an Edition issued on TUESDAY night, posted at the latest period allowed by the Post-office, giving the close of the Railway and other Markets of that day, with the usual extracts from the " London Gazette" of the same evening. A WEEKLY REVIEW OF EVERY • NEW PROJECT brought before the public will form the leading subject of editorial notice, and will be accompanied by occasional comment on the progress of the great work of Railway extension, as well as on its general influence and opperatiou upon co-existing interests, while the miscellaneous columns of the Paper will always afford ample space for reports of Public Meetings and every other kind of Railway Intelligence. The RAILWAY COURIER, and STOCK EXCHANGE PRICE CURRENT will be printed on a broad sheet, similar in size and form to the double "Morning Herald" newspaper; and, in addition to its important features of Railway News already noticed, it will be to the weekly what the " Herald" is to the daily reader—AN AMPLE GENERAL NEWSPAPER. The comprehensive character of THE COURIER offers especlal advantages for the publication of all Railway Advertisetnents ; cir culating, as it must, in every channel wherein Railway Information is sought.

We cannot grow it for that price. 'We think in all conscience we have been fattening the manufactures: long enough. They have become over grown, and will be mighty hard to handle." We are re joiced that the farmers of Pennsylvania are learning wisdom from the " teaching of experience." That they are beginning to discover that a " protective" tariff is but a scheme for protecting the few by plundering the many. That the bounty conferrcd upon the manufacturer and iron-master, by arti ficially raising the price of their productions one-third, is taken from the pockets of the farmer, by depreciating the results" of the preseisitohric e‘tvarpiffentnostyhweafnairameera,nthceontrol prices of his produ ce i n a lik e rat i o.

This railway will commence at Sheerness in conjunction with a short steam-ferry communication from a point at or near to South end, on the opposite Essex coast, and win proceed from Sheerness by Queenborough to Faversham, where it will form a junction with one of the proposed lines from London by that town to Canterbury and Dover. The integral line will be continued from Faversham to or near to Herne Bay; and from thence to the South-Eastern Extension Railway (now being made), at a point near Sarr, and will then pro• teed on that line direct to Ramsgate eastwards, and direct to Peal south-eastwards. From a point between Herne Bay and Sarr the line will also be carried by a short extenston to Margate. By this project Margate will be placed within 76 miles of the me tropolis, instead of more than 100, as at present, and that too by a direct line through Faversham, at which place it will meet the Lon don lines. . The important town of Ramsgate, now so extensively connected with continental communication, will also be thus afforded a much nearer overland route to London ; and Deal, Ramsgate, Margate, Herne Bay, Sheerness, Chatham, Rochester, Gravesend, Woolwich, Greenwich, and London, will all be placed in immediate or easy con nexion upon one continuous line of railway. By means also of this undertaking, in conjunction with the exist ing and projected railways proceeding to the south coast of Essex, the whole of the passengers and traffic from Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Hull, York, and the Northern, the Midland, and the Eastern Counties, will be conveyed to Dover and the Conti nent via Sheerness, in preference to a lengthened and cir cuitous route through the metropolis, whereby the journey will be shortened more than 50 miles, travelling expenses will be curtailed, and the serious inconvenience and delay of transhipsment and con veyance from one part of London to another wholly avoided. A glance at the map also will show the immense advantage which the metropolis itself will enjoy by its being thus afforded other routes to the coast of Kent. The millions who annually seek pleasure in excursions to Gravesend, Sheerness, Southend, Herne Bay, Margate, Ramsgate, Deal, and Dover, will have a choice of different routes. They may proceed by railway, on the Essex side of the Thames, to the Thames Haven, Tilbury Fort, or Southend—pass over to Sheer ness by water, and thence proceed direct by this railway—or they may reach Sheerness wholly by water, and then ayoid' the sea—or, may pass at once from London, on the Surrey s'de of the Thames, to Sheerness, Herne Bay, Margate, and Ramsgate, by railway in a direct line, consuming only about two hours in the journey, and may vary their pleasure by going m one direction and returning by another. Independently of the vast multitudes who will thus seek health and recreation, the importance, as a national object, of connecting all the above-mentioned towns, and giving a Direct Line from Sheerness to Dover, together with the immense existing traffic in the direction cf the undertaking, and the great increase which the improyed and enlarged modes of communication throughout: Kent will occasion, must be too apparent to need further observation; and the Commit tee from careful inquiry feel confidence in stating that no scheme of railway has yet been offered to public attention combining greater public and private advantages. About thirty-six miles of new railway only will embrace all the above important objects—viz., from Sheerness to Fay. rtham about Faversham to Herne Bay ..... ...... .....

The Committee reserve the power of making branches to Canter. bury and to Deal, if circumstances shout . hereafter render It ad visable. The liability of the shareholders will be restricted to the amount of their subscriptions, and power will be applied for in the Bill to alloiv interest, at 4 per cent. per annum, on all calls from the passing of the Act until the opening of the line. -Applications for prospectuses, maps, and shares, may be made to the solicitors or secretary, at the temporary oftioas, 34, Coleman street, or at No. 2, Hercules-passage, City ; and the following share brok ers Mr. Miles, Worcester • Mr. Thomas Henry Wheeler, Worcester Messrs.

MGR WATER AT LONDON-BRIDGE TIM DAY. .. 35 minutes after 4 I Evening . 56 minutes after 4 sufferers from the want of the commodity, this " salt duty" has never been collected. The plain fact is, that at present there is a deplorable want of high roads, even of a practicable kind, throughcut the Peninsula. The system and the scale on which the land-tax is collected in India leaves to the Government little or no pretext for demanding, of those who would c'th fly benefit by the extension and improvement of these high ways, further contributions on account of the expenses incident to the construction and mainte nance of such roads. Now salt is a very bulky commodity. Without the advantages of roads for its transport, of what value to the ryot who toils in the most sequestered villages within the Madras presidency, or to the midland cultivators of Behar, of the Mysore, or the Doab, are the salt treasures of the north-west and the north east, the eastern shores and the western, and the south-eastern provinces of Hirt dostan ? If railroads existed, how different would be the aspect of affairs in this instance ! That which is now loaded with " transit." and other charges would be delivered, at any or every village of the Peninsula, with only a fractional charge to the consumer for its carriage beyond the Government duty, which latter already is much diminished, as well as the transit dues (io unaccountably revived after their abolition by Lord ELLENnonouou), will no doubt soon be finally extin guished. What would thus occur to salt would, of course, equally take place with regard to treasure and stores. The conveyance of the former, owing to the great bulk of the currency of the country being in silver rupees (not to speak of the cowrie shells, one thousand of which represent but a solitary coin of this kind, but which are not so much the object of transport out of one district into another)--this conveyance is a most formidable item of charge to private individuals, especially if they be engaged in factory property connected with the cultivation of indigo, in inland trade, &c. But to the Government it is one of enormous magnitude. The almost general impractica bility of the roads is aggravated by the tedious character of the navigation of the great rivers, in boats which every night are brought to an anchorage in the stream, and delayed till daybreak text morning. Before the introduction of steam-boats on the Ganges, an officer, ordered to Allahabad, consumed as much as three er four months in the inland passage from Calcutta with his b.iggage, &c. But we rejoice to find that the present Governor-General, deeply impressed with the wisdom and necessity of consolidating the permanency of British power in India on firmer and more expansive bases than those to be supplied by military conquests, is directing all the energies of his powerful mind—in the very first place, after maturing his noble plans of native education and advancement—to the application of steam navigation on the Ganges and the Jumna, and even the Indus, and to the organis ition of a grand and comprehensive plan of trunk railway lines throughout the length and breadth of his magnificent government. Thus, over those fair but benighted regions, which have slumbered for ages in the disgraceful moral lethargy—encouraged, for their own bad purposes, by the crafty ministers of a degrading and idolatrous superstition—through the wide em pire bequeathed by the first Mogul Sultauns to their degenerate successors,—and amidst the fertile but neg lected territories ravished from their original possesiors by the fierce and faithless Mahratta, or the piratical and unscrupulous Rajpoot, European invention and capital are about to extend the peaceful but nobler and more enduring invasion, and triumphs of European science and arts, and institutions. Railroads will bring the timid and effeminate inhabitant of the plains of Bengal into a safe, and by degrees a cordial commurion with his fiercer compatriots of the mountainous regions of the north-west. The military tribes of the Upper Provinces will gradually assimilate their more predatory and violent pursuits to the tranquil occupations of the cultivators and the merchants of the Lower.. Railroads have, al: ready, so far triumphed over the prejudices they had at first to encounter, that they are now universally ad mitted to be adapted for the most rapid, most certain, and most extended career of eivilisatioe, in an empire, which, like India, has witnessed in an era which even tradition does but dimly reach, the highest point of re finement, of luxury, perhaps even of letter:. From that lofty position sherapidly declined, under the iron rod of her Moslem masters; and eight or nine hundred years of unmitigated despotism had almost blotted out her grander recollections from the page of history, when the association of her native soldiery, with those of Britain, once more opened for her a field of noble distinction, and acquired for her people new rights and establishments. Railroads, alone, were wanting to give combination and effect to her reviving energies, in order to make them available to the progress of her ameliorated civil and social instituti ins; and she has now the happiness to possess a Governor-General who is urging on that noble work with all the profound sagacity and administrative vigour of his bold, capacious, and unfettered intellect. We hear from various quarters great complaints against the late decision of the Court of Aldermen on the election of Lord Mayor for the city of London. We are not surprised at the general feeling on the subject, for anything so derogatory to the character of the City, so contrary to the established practice of the Corporation, and so unfair,,selfish, .and revengeful, has hardly ever disgraced a civic community. But we aro surprised that the affair has been allowed to pass by with solittlenoise, and that the Lisery and the different wards represented by the junior aldermen do not bestir themselves, and assert the honour and dignity of what was regarded.once as the most powerful, influential, and independent cor peration of Christendom. The time was when a vote of that body carried with it an effect not much inferior to that of the House of Commons, when it was looked up to by all the civic bodies throughout the United Empire, and could no: be-treated with indifference either by the Sovereign or the Legislature. It gave its opinion on questions of peace and war, on any great domestic event,. whetherit was a Bill of Pains and Penalties instituted by a libertine Sovereign against his Queen, or a State prosecution against some obscure individual who risked his property and his life in the cause of freedom—and that opinion,, not unfrequently, was echoed by a vast proportion of the community. Within eitintienhzeli tastex. few e years, however, there has beetnithg of V h ae Asaiedyefitelelitnhg g o r ff ant tn , a ti n li d s respect. If we recollect right, the pre sen t L ORD p M re a s sr s o t n he t i r r ied dis to ap g p e r( t ib u l p tion a meetin of some resolutionS to that effect were passed, but it made so little noise at the time, and was regarded with such complete indifference, that the impression has been almost effaced from the public mind. But this is only one obscure instance. On all the great topics of the day the voice of the city of London is rarely heard. The income-tax, the corn-laws, the new tariff, the re= dress of Irish grievances, and twenty other public mean sures, that would, under &nailer circumstances, have oc cupied the attention of the City Parliament, have been allowed to pass unnoticed, while their time has been oe capied with personal affairs, or corporation jobbing, tending little to raise the character of the City, ur benefit the population over whom they have almost supreme rule. Looking at their acts with the utmost impartiality, we must say that their very last-i , —the election of Alder man JOHNSON to the Mayoralty—is the least excusable and the least creditable to the City. We will not enter into the merits or demerits of Alderman Woon. The hasty, rash, and, perhaps, unfounded attack made upon him by Lord DENMAN raised the cry against him, and we are not surprised at it, considering the just respect entt rtained by the great body of the people to wards the judges, and the impartial manner in which they perform their duties. But Lord DENMAN'S opinions will not always bear a strict scrutiny. He is, perhaps, more than any other judge on the bench carried. away by the impetuosity of his temper or by a hasty con clusion, anrl, as in the affair of the privileges of the House of Commons and the rights of the subject, shows a vacillation which lessens in a great measure the effect of a dogmatic opinion, though delivered in a hall of jus tice. We will judge Alderman WOOD rather by his own compeers, by his colleagues in (Bee, men who have known him long, and who have besides devoted no little time to ascatain the weight of the objections urged against him. Ile was returned by the Livery along with Alderman JOHNSON, and judging from the display in the Common Hall, had a very large majority. The Court of Aldermen, however, departed from the usual course by sleeting his junior, but only by a majority of two. An 1 how was that majority obtained ? By the vote s of tie asp rants to office who would not forego for one year this rich prize, but like a brute her.l, ran down and trampled on the stricken deer to make themselves more secure. Of the seni. r alder men, those who had served the Office of Lord Mayor and knew its duties, seven voted for him and only five against him. Alderman LUCAS would also have voted for him, but was prevented by infirmity. The same cannot be said of Alderman THOMPSON, but possibly he had some other reason for not recording his vote. The n of those who 'spoked to the civic chair only, two had the -^lf-denial to forego their own claims, and that for one ^ot fewer than seven, including his rival, year, *lib. ''a.ve remained neuter, if be had who sl;ould in ?ernes. '.•dd their - votes amainst not courage to be gcnerouP, recut.— - him. We kn )w:not how Aldermen nooPE4. L n ' : would have voted, but %hey htla at all vents the disere tion and goo i sense to keep away, and, as far ' a I themselves, left the dEclsion to parties who bad no selfili interests to serve. Tt.e pub lic cannot rest satisfied %%WI such a result. It is not only unfair to Alder, an Woan, but an sat of co ,tempt towards those whom he re presents, and holds out little encouragement to men of respectabily to court civic honours. We need not, there fore be surprised if citizens of great wealth and high character stand aloof from these civic contests, when they find, that after undergoing all the canvassing and drudgery attendant upon inferior offices, they may be deprived at last of the highest by some popular clamour, or unfounded accusation, and be rejected by the votes of men who have a personal interest, and who in every court properly regulated are not allowed to vote at all. But there is another circumstance which could not fail to operate in the secret conclave. Alderman Jot:maw./ is a wealthy man. Turtle, and venison, and champagne are indispensable requisites at City feasts, and without them the Egyptian Hall would lose its character. It is for the interest of the citizens, however, as well as the country at large, that the great Corpora tion of London should aim at a higher character, and that its decisions should not lie liable to the charge of partiality and oppression. The Mad, id Gazette of the 27th and 28th of Sep tember contains three official documents. The first is a treaty of peace between Spain and the Republic of Chili, formerly a valuable colony of the mother country. By this treaty a full amnesty is granted to all Spaniards and Chilians who may have taken part in the hostili ties between the two countries. The independence of the republic is fully recognised by the QUEEN of Spain. The second is a royal ordonnance for the organization of the Council of State, which is almost a copy of that established in France, and the last contains instructions for the formation of the new universities. According to these, the rectors and the directors of the faoulty ormedicine are to resign their functions into the hands of the political chiefs of the provinces. This regu lation applies to the Universities of Salamanca, Val ladolid, Santiago, Seville, Valencia, Granada, Bar celona, Saragossa, and Madrid. The accounts from the provinces are said to be satisfactory, though several ad ditional arrests had taken place. Uolonel ORTEGA, a Member of Cortes, who had been arrested at Saragossa and carried to Madrid, had been set at liberty, without being able to obtain from the Government any reason whatever for the proceeding. On the 26th the execu tion of a bandit, called PEDRO VINALS, took place at Gerona. It appears he had for a long time been the terror of the province, and when hardly"pressed has made his escape into France, but was delivered up by the authorities in virtue of existing treaties. After his conviction he confessed that during his short career, for he was only 34 years of age, he had murdered nine pt.r sons and wounded many more. He had joined the Car. lists at the age of 14. On the Madrid Bourse on the 28th business was done in the Three per Cents. to the amount of 6,384,000 reels at 32i cash. Colonel MornAurae, which leaves no doubt that he had been allured into a snare laid for him :—" Colonel MONTAGNAC, who commanded at Djemmaa Ghiazaouet, being informed by an Arab chief, who had never'before given any reason to doubt his fidelity, that ABD-EL KADER, at the head of only a few men, had come to seek refuge in the environs, and was then in a spot where he might be easily surprised, set out with a small column of 430 men, composed of the Bth battalion of the Orleans • Chasseurs, and two squadrons of Hussars. On arriving at the marabout of Sidi Brahira (four leagues from Djemmaa Ghiazaouet, he was suddenly surrounded by an enormous mass of horsemen and Kabyles of the country, and of the fron tier of Morocco, whom he charged resolutely, with the intention of foreleg a passage. The melee was terrible, for in a moment officers and soldiers were stretched life less on the earth, with the exception of eighty men of the Chasseurs, at the Lead of whom was Captain Go- REAUX, the only officer who had not been killed. Not withstanding the efforts of the enemy, these eighty men got possession of a neighbouring marabout, and shut themselves up in it. ABD-EL-FADER in vain attempted to force the place. He was constantly received by a fire of musketry through the loop-holes which our soldiers had made in the walls with their swords and bayonets, and the Emir was compelled to raise a siege which had cost him so many lives. For two days our men were there pressing against each other, without sleep, provisions, or water. Three times did ABDEL KADER call upon them to surrender, swearing that no harm should be done to them, " For," said he, "you are humane towards Mussul man prisoners." Although reduced to the last ex tremity, our eighty brave men would not listen to any terms, and under these circumstances ABDEL- Emma retired, leaving, however, a large force to blockade the marabout. Scarcely was the bulk of the besieging force out of sight of the besieged, than they attempted a sortie, and penetrating with bayonet the line of natives who surrounded them, they directed their course towards Djemmaa Ghiazaouet. At a league from that place a host of Kabyles fell upon them. The captain was one of the first who fell, and his soldiers, in order that his body might not fall into the hands of the enemy, fell by the side of him. In the meantime the fusilade was heard at Djemmaa Ghiazaouet, where the alarm had besides been given by a hussar, the only one who had escaped from the massacre of the two squadrons. When the garrison of this place reached the scene of the combat, only twelve men were stand ing. They were all easily disengaged and taken back to Djemmaa Ghiazaouet—in all, fourteen living out of four hundred and fifty I" These unexpected outbreaks had caused great uneasi ness, as they were believed to be connected with a general plan for attacking the whole frontier. General Lemon- CIERE, who succeeded Marshal BUGEAUD, had left Al giers with a strong reinforcement on receiving the in telligence. We subjoin miscellaneous extracts from the papers:— A Royal Ordonnance has been issued, raising to the peerage the following persons :—Lieutenant-General Fabvier ; M. Jard Panvillier, Counsellor, Master of the Court of Accounts ; M. Laurens Humblot, formerly Deputy, Member of a Council-General ; M. Legag neur, First President of the Cour Royale of Toulouse ; M. Mesnard, Counsellor of the Coen of Cessation, for merly Procureur-General ; M. Paulze, formerly Pre fect ; Baron Roederer, formerly Prefect and Member of a Council-General ; and M. Rousselin, First President of the Royal Court of Caen. The Duke DE MONTPENSIER reached Toulon on the Ist inst. in the Gomer. steamer. The Prince having per formed quarantine at Malta was immediately admitted to pratique, and proceeded to the Prefecture, where apartments had been fitted out for his reception. A grand banquet was given to the Minister of Finances at Havre, on Thursday, by the principal mer chants, manufacturers, and shipowners of that port. The table was laid for seventy persons, amongst whom were the Mayor, the Presidents of the Tribunal and Chamber of Commerce, and the Foreign Con suls. The health of the KING was proposed by the Mayor, and was responded to by the company with great enthusiasm. The President of the Chamber of Commerce having, in a highly compli mentary manner, proposed the health of the Minister, M. LACAVE LAPLAGNE replied, in a speech which pro duced a great sensation, and was highly applauded. The Minister, after thanking the company for the kind way in which he had been noticed, and complimenting the commercial interests of Havre on their spirit of enter prise, one of the effects of which, he said, was to create a nursery of seamen for the royal navy, added— If, thanks to the peace which we have enjoyed for thirty years, the prejudices which divided nations are becoming weaker—if nations are beginning to discover that what is in jurious to one is prejudicial to all others, and that if one be comes rich the others participate in the progress—if, in short, it is permitted to us to hope that the well understood inte rest of each will contribute to the maintenance of that peace which is so favourable to you—it is to you, gentleinen, the instruments of international relations, that these happy re sults are due." " Letters from St. Petersburgh of the 23d ult. contain some details of an affair which occurred subsequently to the last operations of Prince Woronzow. The Russians having returned to a cantonment after the taking of Dargo, wert busy in completing their means of defence, and adding some new works to the forts of their line of occupation. Tne enemy took care not to attack them on this point, but this was not the case with the division of General Schwartz, which operated against the Lesghis. That division had to sustain a sanguinary conflict with the, determined mountaineers. After having severely chas tised the village of 'resell, which •at all times has distinguished itself by its invincible energy, the General marched on the • 11th of August • towards Auzuch and Kapuchin.- The former place, when summoned, replied that it would only yield at the last extremity. Kapuchin, which had been reinforced by the surrounding population, was also placed on a formidable footing of defence. Hardly 'bad the Russian vanguard begun to display the fir s t tiles of its battalions • when the moutaineers, under the shelter of the entrenchments which they had made upon all the ele vated points, began to roll down enormous stones upon the aggressom. This proceeding threw disorder into the ranks. and wosaided a great number of men. The Russians were beginning to give way, but at the voice of their officers they again rushed impetuously to combat. At length, after ex traordinary efforts, they succeeded in taking possession of the entire chain of hills and fortified mounts, with the exception of one position, from which a dreadful fire of musketry was kept up. Tnia point could not be carried until the following day. The Circassians did not abandon it until they were at the last extremity, and then, as at Dargo, they retired in good order, leaving about 100 dead behind them. The Russian troops displayed rare intrepidity in this affair, but the result is not of a nature to compensate the check of Prince Woronzow at Dargo."

Zoological Gardens, on the occasion of a deputation of the artists of the establishment waiting on Mr. Tyler, and pre senting him with a massive silver salver, bearing the follow ing inscription :—"Presented to William Tyler, Esquire, pro prietor of the Royal. Surrey Zoological Gardens, by the artists of the establishment, as a testimonial of their high sense of his generous and gentlemanly conduct to every person under his employ. Oct. 4, 1845." As no previous intimation had been given to Mr. Tyler, he was taken quite by surprise, but returned his acknowledgments to the deputation, Messrs. Godfrey, Southby, and Foster, in a very feeling manner ; and after partaking of the hospitality of Manor House, those gen tlemen retired highly gratified with the result of their labours, which were in fact almost impromptu, the subject having ' only been broached two days previous to the presentation. The salver, which was much admired for its simplicity and elegance, weighed nearly 100 ounces, and was furnished by Mr. Cox Savory, Cornhill.

The last advices from India tend to confirm, in their fullest extent, the most sanguine anticipations we have ever formed of the speedy diffusion, throughout that magnificent country, of railroads. The most anxious and profound attention of the enlightened Governor- General—a man whose career in developing the arts and realising the blessings of peace seems destined , to eclipse even that of his military renown—is _constantly devott d to extending and multiplying the application of steam power to facilitate the communication between all the "countries, nations, names, and languages" which compose our continental empire in Asia. We need not dwell for a moment on the physical, geographical, and political accidents of surface, extent, and institu tions, Which are so many reasons why India requires nothing so much as a well digested anksubstantially con sti tiered scheme of railways in order to eliminate her resources in new and multiplied channels, and to an extent not yet witnessed even in the palmiest periods Of her eventful history. Such a scheme we need not doubt that the administrative genius of Sir HENRY H AR . DIRGE will successfully superintend, and usher into exe. cution. Without this marvellous application of modern science, on a grand scale, the almost innumerable diffi• eulties interposed by natural or artificial obstacles scat tered over an area of enormous territorial extent, and the still more formidable impediments established by the force of habits consecrated by the lapse of from two to three thousand years—by the power of prejudices to Iv Melt superstition has ascribed a character of sacred and unimpeachable permanency —those difficulties we uld have operated, for ages to come, to the same bad results which they have produced for ages past. Differencesofcaste' of usages, of popular feeling —the extreme remoteness of even the most wealthy and enlightened districts from one another—the perils of the journey between them ag gravated by bad and imperfect high roads, and by the want of all unity of action in the sources of internal go • vernment and protection ;—these have been among the main causes which have hitherto effected a more com plete isolation of one province of Hindostan from ano ther than that which separates Hindostan from the Andamans. Of the of e hundred millions of people who sojourn over the vast countries comprised under the vague designation of India, at least one-fourth are iil supplied with salt, and occasionally great sufferers from the want of it. Yet there is no country under heaven which pro. duces that great necessary of life with more facility, or might le made to raise it in larger quantity. Not to mention its salt lakes, its salt desert even, (the ",ilutin," extending over a square of about 240 miles in the Got.jerat), or the plains of salt that occur north and west of the north shore's of the Indus, the ircdigious extent of the Malabar anti Coromandel coasts is dotted with natural reservoirs ^'•tllised by the intense beat of the sun, and of salt, with ar ificial "pans" so,. ' works, in which the mann ----ied on by facturing and purifying processes are native industry and capital. Enormous quantities oz salt are annually made, again, in the huge alluvial tract called the " Sunderbunds "—sand islands forming the Delta of the Ganges, at the north-easternmost extremity of the Indian Peninsula. Now it is not enough to ac count for the scarcity of this invaluable condiment to say that it is occasioned by the Government monopoly of salt—by that duty which, together with the " Land' ' and " Sayer"—the " Ayeen" and " Akbarry" revenues— have, during so many years, formed so large an item in the financial resources of the East India Company. In some of the tributary States, which are among the great ;,Vr-Aleaor .• 4 0 4 . DISTURBANCES IN ITALY. The Paris journals announce another isolated and ill contrived attempt to bring about a revolution in the States of the Church. It appears that, on the 24th of September, an insurrection broke out at Rimini, in which certain of the inhabitants, and some Spanish and Pied montese refugees were implicated. On the night of the 24th about one hundred of these refugees landed near Ri mini. The insurgents immediately proceeded to the fort of Sun Leo, situated at a short distance from the town, and in which they ere supposed to have had partisans. They penetrated into the fart, and set at liberty the political prisoners, •who were very numerous. They next entered Rimini, where they stopped the couriers, and carried off the dispatches. The Cardinal Legate of Forli im mediately sent troops to Rimini. On the 27th, at their approach, the insurgents, who without doubt had found no support in the people of the town and environs, hastily quitted Rimini, after abandoning their arms ; some of them re-embarked, the others took refuge in the mountains. It does not appear that any other movement whatever took place throughout the Le gations ; but the fact has excited the attention of the authorities, and also the Government of Milan. Oa the report of the attempt reaching Marshal BA DETZKI, the commander of the •Austrian forces, he re inforced the garrison of Ferrara, and the Papal Govern ment had ordered the garrison of Ancona to be strength ened and the coasts strictly watched. The volunteers had been called out, and every preparation made for.act ing with vigour against the insurgents. We regard this as a most melancholy affair. These deluded people seem to act entirely without concert. They have heavy grievances to complain of, for the Government of the POPE is the very worst in Italy; and it would be -difficult to describe it in stronger terms ; but these partial risings only give additional power to their oppressors, and bring down on the victims the most terrible punishment. A Papal Commission will forth with be constituted, and some twenty or thirty execu tions will be the melancholy result. RE-APPEARANCE OF ABD-EL-KADER. The accounts from Africa received at Paris OR Sunday, as published by two of our Con temporaries, are of a disastrous character. Ann:- EL-KA DE R bad again appeared in the field near the frontiers of Morocco, had completely surprised the French troops, and taken terrible vengeance on all wh.) opposed his progreas. The MoniteuiAlyerien, Sept. 30, an official journal says :—" A general insurrection had taken place among the native tribes in that quarter, and ABD -EL•KKEER; placing himself at their head had , opined the campaign, by cutting to pieces a body Of 450 French troops." It appears the' scheme had been well planned, and the French were attacked by strong bodies of Arabs on two separate points at once. One of the French divisions was under the command of Lieut. Col, MONTAGNAC. He had been basely allured into an ambuscade by the 'Arabs, who pretended to claim his protection. He was soon attacked by ADD-EL- KADER with all his ; forces, and the column, surrounded on all sides and overpowered by numbers, was almost entirely de stroyed. The other division was under Colonel Bonn JOLLY, and was more -successful.- The following are the particulars of these disastrous encounters as published in the Mon teur Algeren "It would appear that the tribes residing on the western frontier have risen in arms against us. Colonel Cavaignac, who had advanced into the territory of the Traras with a .column of 1,300 infantry, had two encounters with the enemy. In one of these engagements M. Peyragai, chief of battalion of the Zoaaves was killed. On the 21st of Sep.' tem ber, Lieutenant-Colonel of the fort of Djemmaa Ghazaouet, acceded to the entreaties of the neighbouring tribes, who pretended to be menaced by parties of the cavalry of Abd-el-Kader, marched out at the bead of 450 men of the Chasseurs of Orleans, and of the 2d, Hussars towardathe Marabout of Sidi Brahim, situate three leagues from Djemmaa, and one and a half to the west of the Nedroma-road. On the .22d he advanced to Dar-el-Foul about a league further. " The report of a brisk fusillade having been heard in that direction from Djemmaa Ghazaouet, the captain of engineers, in command of the fort, sallied out with 150 men to recon noitre, and open a communication with the column. He was, however, obliged to retrace his steps before a numerous body of armed men, and to provide for the security of his post. Colonel Montagnac, basely betrayed, was allured into an am buscade by the very Arabs who, claimed his protec tion. At a distance of four leagues, within our fron tier he was surrounded and attacked by Abd-el- Kader, followed by - all his forces; -and assisted by the numerous contingents of the savage tribes of that part of Morocco. Our small column, overpowered -by numbers, was almost entirely destroyed. O n receipt of that intelligence General . Lamoriciere, Governer-General ad in terim, embarked on the 27th in the Tartare steamer for Djeinmaa Ghazaouet, bringing with him the 3d battalion of the 6th regiment of Light Infantry, Two other battalions and a battery of mountain guns followed ,the Lieutenant- General on the same day, in the steamers Euphrates and Etna. In _ conclusion, we will content our selves' with observing that the Bth regiment of Chas spurs of Orleans, and the 2d Hussars have a sad but most glorious page to add to their military history." We subjoin official details from the same authority relative to the division ur.d.-r Colonel Bopn.roLLy. In one of the charges it will be seen Colonel BERTHIER, Aide-de-Camp of Louis PHILIPPE, was killed:— " General Bourjolly had entered the territory of the Flittas to punish the individuals who had plundered a cara van of Arabs of the Desert, on their way back to their coun try, with the grain they had purchased in the Tell. He little expected to find the entire tribe in open revolt. On the 21st he was vigorously attacked, and after a very warm engagement he succeeded in reaching the camp of Ben- Atia. Hostile groups showed themselves during the whole day in the environs. The General had given a rendezvous at Ben-Atia, on the 22d, to the chief of battalion, Mansion, Commander of the fort of the Khamis of the Beni Ourags, on the Rion where that officer was sta tioned with his battalion. Fearing that the enemy might attack that small column with a superior force, he marched on the 22d to meet it, with two battalions and his cavalry, leaving two other battalions for the defence of the camp. The junction took place without any difficulty, and General Bour j olly returned in the evening to the camp of Ben-Atia, after several- encounters with the revolters in the narrow passages through the mountains. The co lumn of Mostaganem had taken a supply o f pro visions and ammunition fur an excursion of ont.y a few days, in a country where some disturbances had occurred but which he did not expect to find entirely under arms, and roused to fanaticism by the presence of a Cheriff. To advance still farther with the sick and wounded would have been im prudent. General Bourjolly resolved consequently to retire on Bel-Acel, and there prepare to sesume the offensive. On the 23d he encamped at Touiza, in the country of the, Beni Dorgoui'as, having been constantly harrasFed by the enemy in his retrogade move merit. The rear - guard, consisting of 200 men of. the 9th Chasseurs of Orleans, was repeatedly engaged, and the squadrons of the 4th Chasseurs were obliged to execute several charges to support them. Lieutenant-Colonel Berthier, formerly Aide-de-Camp of the King, was killed in heading a charge, and Commander Cle r e, o f th e 9th Ch asseurs , was wounded in the knee by a musket ball.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were only 2,000 bales, including 500 bales for export. The market was dull and heavy. The Stock Exchange was closed on Saturday. The subject of the establishment of railways in the Dot Imlies has obtained more attention from our capitalists in the City since the receipt of the last letters by the Overland mail. It appears from the best information that can be obtained, that the matter has been taken up most warmly in the several presidencies, and there was but one opinion en tertained as to the practicability of connecting me t of the important districts of the East Inaia by means of railways. We are informed that the Boni" bay Government has approved of the plan for the construction of the Great Indian Peninsular Rail' way, and of the Indian Railway Association of Bombay The parties here who have taken up the former, have con certed measures for a junction with the latter, as well as to extend the influence of both in the East Indies. It is wor thy of remark that the names attached to the prospectus of the Great India Peninsular Railway are chiefly of several official have traversed the whole of India in their several official capacities. The principal point in the first instance to be obtained appears to be a trial upon a fair scale, which is to be made under the auspices of the Government of India, persuant to dispatches sent out by the India Board and the Directors of the East India Company, some time back. There are not any arrivals of the least interest to-W. The state of the grain markets is a subject of much interest at present. We believe that upon the Meat authentic information it may be stated that the whole yield of the United Kingdom will be an average. Th e present high range of prices is principally caused, we are assured, from the fact that the new Wheats at market are unfit for grinding without a very considerable admixture of the produce of the last and previous year. The prine of beans and peas rule extremely high, as the export demand is very considerable. The Consul Market has been firm to-day, the ruling prices for the Account having been 98% %, while, for immediate transfer, 98 1 4 has just been pa id .
