CI RENT WESTERN AND CORNWALL JUNCTION RAILWAY, from Exeter to Falmouth. Capital, 2,000,0001., in 104,000 Shares of 201 each. Deposit, 11. 105. per Mare. The line proposed by this Company commences at Cowley. bridge in the vicinity of the city of Exeter, uniting at that point with the Bristol and Exeter Line, traverses the centre of the county of Devon, and the great mining district of Cornwall to the town of Truro, whence it takes a southerly direction to, and ter.. Pnlnates at, the port of Falmouth. The line is integral between its termini, and will, by means of the Bristol and Exeter and the Great Western Railways, connect the port of Falmouth and the western counties with the metropolis and the chief manufacturing towns in the north of England. The line was surveyed, at a great expense, in 1836, by the Lon don, Salisbury, Exeter, and Falmouth Railway Company, the pro moters of which applied to Parliament in the session of 1837 for an Act of incorporation, which had, after a protracted and search investigation, the sanction and report of a Committee of the se of Commons in its layout. . The present Company has, by an arrangement with the Share holders of the former acquired the valuable plane , sections, and other documentary evidence in support of the line, and it is thus enabled to present an undertaking sanctioned by a Committee of the Legislature —a feature which distinguishes it from all the rail ways of recent projection. The Notices and deposits of plans required by the Standing Or ders of the Howes of Lords and Commons have been perfected. A deposit of 11. 10s. per share to be paid to the account of the Acting Committee with the Bankers of the Company tqfbn apro. priation. But in accordance with the arrangement entered into with the Shareholders in the London, Salisbury, Exeter, and Fal yeouth Railway Company, their Shares will be recognised on the payment of ss. per share, part of the deposit, and the further sum °r 11, per share will entitle the holder to a certificate in the pre sent Company, representing a deposit of 1/. 10s. ; the Subscribers' a greement and Parliamentary contract being previously executed. In the event of this undertaking not receiving the sanction of the Legislature, the Parliamentary deposit of 1/. per share will be returned to the Subscribers without any deduction. No application for shares can be attended to, unless made in the following ferm:— j e the PROVISIONAL COMMITTEE of the GREAT 'vESTERN and CORNWALL JUNCTION RAILWAY. G IINTLEMEN,—I request you will allot to me shares of 20/. e ach, or any less number of shares, in the Great Western and Cornwall Junction Railway Company, on the terms and conditions "the prospectus ; and I undertake to pay the deposit and sign the subscribers' agreement and Parliamentary contract, when I am called upon to do so.

The NINETEENTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING was held on Monday, the 16th of December, in terms of the Act of Parliament by which the Company is constituted— GEORGE PATTON, Esq., Advocate, in the Chair. The Report and Statements as to the affairs of the Company submitted on this occasion were highly satisfactory to all connected with the Institution ; and the Chairman, in an address to the Meet ing, directed particular attention to the following very gratifying results : The number of Policies issued singly during the year is 562. The Assurances proposed to the Company during the year exceed the large sum of HALF A MILLION STERLING—the Assurances effected being nearly 400,0001, adding from that source alone about 13,5001. per annum to the Company's revenue from Premiums. Large transactions have also been effected in other departments of the business. The Company's investments continued to be upheld at a high rate of interest on unexceptionable security, chiefly Government and Heritable, and notwithstanding the great increase of the Company's funds, the return secured still shows an advantage of nearly 2'. per cent, in favour of the Company above the rate calculated on in their Tables for Life Assurance. The number of lives which have fallen during the year amount only to one per cent. on the number of the Assured standing on the books. AND, IN ADDITION TO THESE RESULTS, The Company have added, by an advantageous arrangement, 927 policies to their lists, through a transference of the business of the YORK AND LONDON ASSURANCE COMPANY. The Reports and Statements were unanimously approved of; anti the Chairman, after drawing attention to the important posi tion which the Company now occupy among the Assurance Insti tutions of this country, and the fact of the Company never having disputed or compromised a claim, concluded by congratu lating all parties on the satisfactory results exhibited, and took the opportunity of calling attention to the important fact that the THIRD DIVISION of PROFITS among the Policy Holders was to take place in November, 1845. He was certain that the advan. tage of joining the Participation Scheme of the Company, before the balance was struck, would not be lost sight of by intending assurers, and he felt confident that there would be much reason for further congratulation when they next met together.

EXTRACT FROM THE TIMES OF 9th NOV., 1844. " _ " Mr. W. W. Simpson, the well known and deservedly respected auctioneer and land valuator, has recently published a pamphlet, entitled A Defence of the Landlords of Ireland, with remarks on the relation between Landlord and Tenant. The Dublin Evening Packet, in reviewing this work, gives the following character of its Author :" 11 Mr. Simpson, we scarc e ly ne ed remind our readers, is an En. glishman of vast experience in matters relating to the improvement and value of land in his own country. He is moreover a gentleman of most comprehensive views, and possesses an understanding natu. rally strong, and a stock of practical knowledge, and sterling sense, which falls to the lot of very few persons in his own or any other rank of life. " With the social condition of Ireland, he has made it his busi ness, almost as a matter of necesaity, to make himself thoroughly acquainted. He feels for her wants, and has contributed as much perhaps as any m an i n hi s t i me to i mprove h er resources, by encou raging the investment of British capital in every department of Irish industry. Such a witness as this, we therefore hold to be beyond the reach of suspicion, on the score either of interest or partiality. His testimony must be regarded •u invaluable, as it is unquestion ably unimpeachable." THE NINTH EDITION. Just Published, in a sealed envelope, price 2s. 6d.

This distinguished patronage has induced some unprin cipled adventurers to palm upon the public base Imitations of REID'S PATENT INSTRUMENTS, which has been made known to the Patentee by the number of spurious instruments which are daily sent him from all parts of tho kingdom, and frequently from India, for repair, some of which are not worth the expense of carriage.

Hawkins, at the late Meeting of the British Association, that these Candles are by far the cheapest light at present in use. " With regard to Palmer's and the common Dip—when the latter ,was not snuffed oftener than about every ten minutes, it took four to be equal to one of the former; and when unsnufted altogether, it required eleven pounds to be equal to one pound of Palmer's. After al. luding to further experiments with candles and also with oils, he concluded by recommending the self.snuffing candle in preference to oil."—See " Athenaeum," Oct. 19, 1844.

DECLARATION OF THE GUARDIANS OF BRENT, D ITALSE'S SCORBUTIC DROPS. A SURE CURE FOR BAD LEGS. The following case hasexcited so much interest, that the Guardians of the parish of Brent, Devon, have considere I it their duty to sign their names to the accompanying important declaration : We, the undersigned, solemnly declare that before Thomas Ro bins, ene of our parishioners, commenced taking " Halse's Scorbutie Drops," he was literally covered with large running wounds (some of them so large that a person might have laid his fist in them) ; that before he had finished the first bottle he noticed an improvement, and that by continuing them for some time, he got completely restored to health, after everything else had failed. He had tried various sorts of medicines before taking " Halse's Scorbutic Drops,' and had prescriptions from the most celebrated physicians in this country, without deriving the least benefit. " Halse's Scorbutic Drops," have completely cured him, and he is nuw enabled to attend to his labour as well as any man in our parish. From ether cures else made in this part, we strongly recommend " Halse's Scorbutic Drops" to the notice of the public. Signed by John Elliott, sen., Lord of the Manor, John Manning , William Pearce, Henry Goodman, Arthur Langworthy. June 21, 1843. The above-mentioned Thomas Robins was quite incapable of doing any kind of work whatever before he commenced taking those Drops. Some of his wounds were so large, that it was most awful to lo o k at them, and the itching and pain of the wounds generally were m ost dreadful; indeed, the poor fellow could be heard screeching by passers by, both day and night, for sleep was entirely out of the ques tion. He was reduce Ito mere skin and bone, and daily continued to get weaker, so that there was every nrobabllity of his speedy death.

An investigation before Mr. Blackburn, coroner for the borough of Leeds, relative to the death of Elizabeth Illingworth, the wife of William Illingworth, clock maker, Wortley, Leeds, was brought to a close, so far as concerned the coroner's inquest, on Friday evening last, by the jury, who had been sworn to inquire into the circumstances of the case, returning a verdict of " Wilful murder against Ann Simpson," a woman with whom the husband of the deceased had long carried on an illicit intercourse, The facts of the case will be best gathered from the following abstract of the evidence: — Mr. M. Hall, surgeon, and Mr. West, analytical che mist, were examined ; and from the evidence of the former, who had made a postmortem examination of the body of the deceased, there appeared to be no doubt that she had died from some irritant poison. Mr. West said he had found arsenic in the contents both of the stomach and of the intestines of the deceased, and he had no doubt that she had died from the effects of arsenic. Isabella Harrison, the wife of James Harrison, dyer, deposed that she lived near to Wm.ling worth's house, and knew both him and his wife very well. She had also known Ann Simpson for fourteen years, who was a married woman, but witness did not know where her husband was. Ann Simpson had lived at Illingwerth for two years, but now had a house a short distance from Illingworth's. Sho slept in that house at night, but lived at Illing worth's in the daytime. She hada child by Illiingworth about a year and eight mouths since. It was born in 11- lingworth's house, and the deceased, Illingworth's wife, waited upon her (Ann Simpson) during her confinement. Up to that tirae, and three months after, Ann Simpson lived at Illingworth's house. The deceased had been ill for some time, but at noon on Wednesday, the 11th of December, the day preceding her death, when witness saw her in her own house, she appeared better than she had appeared for many a month, was in good spirits, and complained of no pain anywhere. Witness went again to Illingworth's, about half-past three o'clock in the afternoon, and the deceased was then in bed. Ann Simpson had gone to hers. Witness went upstairs to see the deceased, and she complained of being starved and pain in her head, but refused to have a surgeon. Witness never saw deceased again till after her death, when she saw her laid on a board at Illingworth's house, about eight o'clock on Thursday morning, the 12th of December. Witness went again the same afternoon to Illingworth's house, where she saw Ann Simpson, who told her that on the previous evening the deceased, after being in bed a short time, complained that she was ill, and she asked her (Ann Simpson) to get her some thing to eat, for she was nearly " pined" to death. She got her a quarter of a pound of sausages, about half of which deceased ate ; and also gave her some gruel with gin it, which she drank at the same time that she ate the sausages. About two hours after she had had the gruel and sausages the deceased began to be purged and to vomit. She then began to complain of pain iu her bowels, and they bathed her with warm water and flannel. omplaining of being cold, her thus band and she lay down beside her, and she moaned and then settled a bit. her husband then got up 2 and went to the fire, and they found she was dead. V wasiess present when she died, which was abouttwtoheceasd n o'clock de o e Thursday morning. Witness ha d l led up have pains in her bowels before, and known had been called at night to bathe her. A nn Simpson was as much mis tress of the house as the deceased. Illingworth treated them both alike in point of kindness, but witness did not think they all three slept together. About a fortnight before her death, deceased and her husband were quar relling, and she said she would eut her throat and then she would be out of the way. She had heard her be fore threaten to destroy herself, and she believes that the woman Ann Simpson was the cause of her unhappi ness. Mr. llall, surgeon, in his second examination, said that he did not find any saus age i n t h e stomac h or bowels of the deceased. William Guy, cloth-dres ser , Wortley-lane, stated that his house was back t o back with Illingworth's. In the dead of the night, when all was still, he could hear what was said in Illingworth's house. About one o'clock in the morning, when the deceased died, while he was in bed, he heard the deceased cry out, " Oh, my belly, I can't bide ; lam killed with pain." He heard her cry out twice. Then she was still for about a quarter of an hour. He then heard her cry out again, but in a lower tone, and as if she were weaker. On her crying out, he heard Illingworth, the husband, swearing at her. De ceased said, " Bill, I have such a pain in my inside, I cannot bide." Illingworth replied, " What the hell is thou making this d—d noise about ?" and that "he could not help her," or something of that sort.

George Duckworth, barman at the Suspensi( ) 11-- bridge, stated that Ann Simpson went through the b towards Leeds on Wednesday, the day before Elizabet b. Illingworth died. Zary Catherall, a married woman, residing in Mans- • fi e ld, :- .. lolbeck, said, she had known Ann Simpson ever since she .w as eight or nine years of age.

Bhp said, "If they took her, they took her inn. stn several had gone before." She also said that sh..! ehNtke t oe sleep all night. Witness's husband then ca. - ne 11 1 , ana l s Ann Simpson went away. o t c h yell Kell, one of the Leeds police force, depos.. 4 to the fa. -t that Ann Simpson had told him that she weS not at L , eeds at all on Wednesday, the 11th , ef December • but that she was there on Tuesday, tthe 10th, and boug2 ll a lot of watch glasses of a man named Ripley. Ripley ' s son was e , lied, and from his evidence it was . 'pson was not at his father's on. very clear that Ann Sin. either the 10th or the 11th of December. Blanshard Ringoose, assist:Ant to Mr. Hall, druggist, Leeds, deposed that a woman' .like Ann Simpson asked for some arsenic at his master's SL op on the 11th or 12th. , of December, but he could not say n which day, and he• did i of let her have any, because he , did did not know her, and because she was alone. That wotek,n, he observed, on her leaving the shop, entered into cons 'creation with I) another woman at the door-stead. He & old not . positive that Ann Simpson was the woman who went into the shop and asked for arsenic, but be bei.koved she was. At the close of the evidence, Ann Simpson, afier the usual caution, was asked if she had any statement to make; but, acting under the advice of Mr. Higham, so lictor, who watched the case for her, and o William. Illingworth, the husband of the deceased, she decline& saying anything. The CORONER, in summing up the case for the eon - sideration of the jury, said there could be no doubt that. the deceased had died from the effect's of arsenic; but' the natural question was, whether it hail been adeinie tered by herself or by the woman Ann Simpson, or the latter in conjunction with some other pers. qn. The evi dence was altogether of a circumstantial esNaracter• It was calculated to create strong sugpicion Want Ann Simpson; but he doubted whether it was so e s •onclusive as to warrant them in finding a verdict of wilful ..catirder against her; and he did not like to encourage jue ( es to find verdicts which were not likely to be sustained before the tribunal where the case must be finally investigeed and decided. He then recapitulated the evidence vritk a good deal of minuteness, and particularly poinled oat those parts of it which appeared to bear upon the conduct of Ann Simpson. He referred to the fact of the drug- , gist's assistant having deposed that, as the woman who asked for the arsenic left the shop, she entered into conversation with another woman, which seemed to coin cide so exactly with the evidence of Mary Catherall, sa to leave little doubt that the woman who applied for the arsenic was Ann Simpson. That portion of the evidence also suggested another important consideration. The druggist's assistant had stated that he told the woman that he never sold arsenic unless the applicant was ac companied by a witness, or was personally known. Now, Ann Simpson had known Mary Catherall for a long time, and supposing Ann Simpson to have been the ap plicant, a suspicious circumstance was, that after what she had been told in the shop, she did not ask Mrs.. Catherall to go in with her to enable her to procure the arsenic, if as she said, she wanted it to kill vermin. After pointing out some of the portions of the evidence, the Coroner concluded by requesting the jury to give the case their most careful and impartial consideration. The jury, after consulting together for about half an hour, returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against Ann Simpson," who, on the coroner's warrant, was conunitted to York Castle, for trial at the next assizes. RAILWAYS IN LINCOLN.—(From A. local COM-- spondent.)—On Wednesday the Town-Council of Lin coln gave their assent (as owners of public pro perty, intended to be taken by the different rail ways) to the London and York line, and dis sented from all the others, except the Newark and Nottingham, to which, after some discussion, they agreed, expecting to have it as a feeder for the London and York at Newark. The London and York, alias the Leeds and Manchester people, will attempt to consider this a victory over the other lines at Lincoln, but their victories at Lincoln have al ways been obtained in such a manner that they imply defeat by the dishonesty with which they are brought about. The Lincoln corporation are for the most part either Shareholders in the Wakefield line (now joined with the London and York), or in the Witham Company, and are accordingly bound hand and foot to the heels of the Leeds and Manchester Company. Their decision on Wednesday was given in direct opposition to the wishes of the citizens, who very naturally want the line through Lincoln, and not by Newark, where it would not only be a com peting line with the Midland Counties', but would leave the eastern part of this county to go to London with a single line of rail, by the Witham side to Boston. The Cambridge and Lincoln line is the one desired by all the inhabitants of this city, and immediate steps will be taken to counteract the effects of the council's decision. The Board of Trade will be memoralised without delay, and a public meeting of the inhabitants held, and this time it will net be packed by the London and York shareholders. The citizens arc indignant at the manner in which their interests have been neglected by the corporation, and they will very soon express their opinions in a manner not to be mistaken.—Railway Record. TRADE OF MANCHESTER, TIICRSDAY EVENING.-- On Tuesday and Wednesday, the feeling in our cloth market was decidedly a favourable one, and to-day, owing to the commercial news from India, &c., being of a very encouraging character, it has given a fu rther stimulus to our market, which leaves no doubt whatever that we shall experience a better spring trade than has been for some years past. Some foreign houses which were lying on their oars for the winter, have to-day been making inquiries, s haring no doubt the general impression that prices mu st of necessity go upwards, and the consequence is, that manufacturers might make engagements to almost any extent, at a trifling advance on rates current last week. This, how ever, has generally been declined, and the market closes to-day unusually buoyant for all descriptions. The dyers were never known so busy at this season; indeed, every branch of the trade of this district appears in a most prosperous state. The spinners, too, have found to-day many more inquiries for yarns ; but they, t oo . refuse to enter into any new engagements for the present. Prices rather improving. LADY CECILIA FARRENCOURT.—Among the forth coming works of fiction, which promise to excite much interest, is a navel from the pen of Mr. Mil ton, ent i t l e d " Lady Cecilia Farrencourt.' It is represented as a pic ture of high life, with a domestic interest, arising from events of a peculiar character, that must recommend it strongly to every reader of such productions.
