This Company is formed for establishing works for the manufacture of rails and merchant iron. The Provisional Committee have succeeded in securing for the Company productive coal and iron mines in actual operation, and a large extentof valuable mineral property, on which there is a furnace erected, which* will be in blast in two months. These proper ies arc situated in the midst of iron works, which are in the highest state of prosperity. At the present cost of raising the minerals, rails and bar iron can be manufactured, at the proposed works, for 41. ss. per ton, or less; and there can be no doubt that the iron trade will long remain in its present prosperous condition from the number of railroads now in execution and projected ; the profits, therefore, of the proposed Com pany must be enormous. There is, In fact, every probability that the present healthy state of the iron trade will long continue, and for the reason that the old mineral districts of Great Britain are not capable of increasing their productions to any considerable extent, many of the celebrated mines in Staffordshire being nearly exhausted : added to this, iron is now so largely applied, not only for railroads, but also to building, to naval architecture, and to such numerous other purposes, that it appears certain many years must elapse before the supply of iron can exceed the demavd. At the present time, although the orders for the railroads, for which Bills have been obtained and those for the iforeign railroads now In execution, have not come into the market, yet all the large stocks of Iron have been consumed. The price of merchant iron is now firm at 81. per ton; and when it is considered that every twelve miles of the ordinary railroad, or eight miles of that on the atmospheric system, will absorb more than one blast furnace will produce in a year, it may be fairly estimated that there will be a further and extensive rise in the price of that metal. The Committee have pleasure in stating, that such is the confidence of the vendors in the undertaking, that they have signified their in tention of connecting themselves with this Company, by taking, in shares, a considerable amount of the purchase mone y . The Provisional Committee refrain from giving any particular esti mate of profits, as such must, in a great degree, depend on the state of the iron trade ; from reports of the engineers and mineral sur veyors, however, it would appear that should the price of rails fall, even as low as five guineas per ton, yet a profit of 12 per cent. might still be relied on. The Company will be registered under the Joint-Stock Registration Act, which virtually limits the liability of each Shareholder to the amount of his shares. The first call of 2/., after the legal deposit, will be payable Imme diately on the complete registration of the Company in conformity with 7th and Bth Vic. cap. 110; it is not anticipated that more than 10/. per share will be required, and no calls will be made at shorter intervals than four months, and in sums not exceeding 21. per share. The plans of the property and the reports of the Engineers and Mineral Surveyors may be examined at the Offices of the Company.

The death of Earl SPENCER, better known as the good and honest Lord ALTHOEP, apart from his private worth and consistent political conduct, can excite no in terest throughout the country. His relatives, however, and personal friends, cannot fail to lament the loss of one so upright and fair in his dealings, and so calcu lated, by his kind manner, honesty of purpose, and un assuming conduct. to make a favourable impression on all who came within the circle of his acquaintance. The time was, too, when the people of the United Kingdom would have lamented his death as a great public calamity, and many would have regarded with despair the progress of that great measure of Parliamentary Reform which ex cited such universal interest, and of which Lord ALTHOBP was thr , great champion. Earl GREY, and Lord Josh RUSSELL, and th e E ar l o f DURHAM, were, perhaps, more active agents in constructing the plan, but the great--the difficult, and peculiarly delicate task of carrying it through the House of Commons, and bringing it to a successful issue, fell to the lot of the Chancellor of the Exche quer, and nobly did he perform hie duty. His personal character, his position in society, and consistency were all that could be desired. The most rabid Tory could find no fault with the leader of the Treasury bench and the majority of the representatives of the people. His integrity was above suspicion, his manner was of the most affable and conciliatory kind, his temper was never ruffled; no violent attacks from the most sarcastic of the boroughmongers--the most un scrupulous of that faction, who were to be stripped of their unjust privileges; could disturb the SUPPLEMENT TO THE EVENING SUN, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1845, serenity of his mind, or make him forget for one mo ment that he had only one paramount duty to perform —to march straight forward, regardless of all interrup tions, to the goal so ardently desired by nine-tenths of the population. Neither the taunts and unfounded statements of Jourtwort C RORER, nor the bois terous and frensied declamations of Sir CHARLES WETHERELL, nor the cautious, deep, calm, insidious, and plausible policy of Sir ROBERT PEEL, turned him from his purpose. Perhaps in no period of Parliamentary history have we such instances of excited orators, reckless declaimers, and treasonable plotters, as during the lengthened discussions on the Reform Bill. If ALTHORP was not personally attacked, all bis colleagues were—charges were brought against the Ministry, as if they had taken advantage of the KING'S peculiarity of mind, and purposely, for their own selfish interests, roused to madness a nation, that but for their wicked instigations would have been satisfied with the smallest possible measure of reform. When these and more grievous charges were made night after night, and aggravated at every repetition, hopes were enter tained that even this prudent leader would become dis concerted and thrown off his guard. Never were hopes so completely falsified, for when the opposing body ex pected some outbreak from STANLEY or GRAHAM, or the more irritable of the party, ALTHORP anticipated them, rose with his usual calm demeanour, and after a brief and civil reply to any objections urged, proceeded in the quiet tenour of his way, and moved the adoption of the next clause. When he was at last found impreg nable, they resigned themselves to their fate, and con soled themselves with the reflection embodied in a phrase of their own coining, that " ALTHORP'S d—d good nature did it all." There were some clauses in the Bill, however, of an objectionable character, which he either opposed too meekly or gave up without opposition, among others the Chandos clause, or, more properly speaking, the Sibthorp clause, for Colonel Sin- THORP first brought it forward. The Marquis of CHANDOS had as much claim to it as AMERICUS VES PUCCIUS had to the discovery of the New World. If ALTHORP consented to that mischievous amendment, it cannot be denied that he was in good company. Mr. HUME, and many others of the Liberals, approved of it; it was not resisted with any courage by the press, and many well-meaning people believed that it was desir able that the suffrage should be extended as widely as possible, without suspecting for a moment that .the Tory landlords would make such a tyrannical use of their power. When the Reform Parliament assembled Earl GREY, timidly afraid of the work of his own hands, did everything in his power to check the popular impulse, and during the rest of his Premiership thought more of controlling and curbing the Commons than using the vast power which they possessed for reforming the Church, reforming the law, cutting down useless expen diture, and rendering justice to the long-oppressed Irish. In all these great faults, we are to presume that Lord ALTHORP concurred, for he retained his seat in the Cabinet till the death of his father removed him to the House of Peers. But ALTHORP was not fitted for a great leader ; he neither bad the daring nor the ori ginal views suited to such a character—he could fight well under a chief—he made an excellent general of a division—and as a proof of his great merit in this re spect, the country at large owe more gratitude to him than to the whole cabinet together. We have dwelt at this length on the part he took in reforming the Commons House of Parliament, because it forms the main feature of his political life, and will be remem bered when all bis other labours, either as a statesman or an agriculturist, are forgotten. In his last character he some years ago gave great offence to the_ agricultural body, by advocating the principles of free trade, and consequently the reduction or abolition of the corn-laws. But that was only another proof of his honourable and independent conduct, and such respect was attached to his name that the offence was speedily forgotten. In modern times it would be difficult to find a public man so free from reproach, or so universally beloved— " Bonum virum facile crederes, magnum libenter." Among the many items of intelligence which give tb the last extraordinary express intelligence from India and China an unusual degree of interest, and of poli tical importance, we have only time, to-day, to notice the very strong rumours which they advert to of Russian intrigue being once more at work, in. Persia, against British supremacy in India. It can hardly be necessary to direct the vigilant attention of our readers to any in timations of this kind applying to such quarters. The very remarkable and hitherto wholly unexplained pro ceedings of the Russian agent at Herat, in exciting the Arab and Seikh soldiery to the several attacks and demonstrations against that fortress, which were so gallantly, defeated by the late Major, then Lieutenant Porrixozn, sufficiently detected a sinister community of purposes in the secret councils of Russia and of Persia. Nor is the significance of the presumption weakened either by the manifest conclusion, that in any case Russia is acting by Persia as her unresisting and convenient tool, nor yet by the ostensible disavowal by the Cabinet of St. Petersbnrgh of the acts of their agent in Herat. The fact of that unhappy rnarfa having laid violent heads -upon himself on the night preceding the day, or On the very morning in which he had been summoned to appear before an Imperial Council, will in no way weaken the inferences which establish the fact of this compacted intrigue. They who have been at the trouble of informing themselves upon the morals and the measures of Russian diplomacy, will easily understand how the Imperial Agent may have been justified in anticipating the treacherous disclaimer of his employers. Neither the mutual confidence, nor the feeling of honour, which in the business of other Cabinets renders confidential instructions binding on both parties, the issuer and the recipient, is a plant that grows on the banks of the Neva. The agent, doubtless, too clearly foresaw the cruel doom that the failure of his mission would entail upon him, and which, therefore, his own band anticipated. Certain it is, that the British Legislature and people have never been favoured with the sight of any official disavowal, on the part of the Russian Government, of at least a guilty knowledge of this man's attempts and cabals against our flag at Herat. But we now learn that at that same Herat, between the agents of the Schah of PERSIA, and YAR MOHAMMED, the usurper, intrigues have been long carried on, founded upon representations of the overwhelming influence of Russia in the Persian Councils, and allegations of a peace for thirty years having been concluded between the two Powers, of which a main condition is said to be— that Russia shall assist the Government of the latter "in overcoming all its enemies in Central Asia." With her usual disinterestedness, Russia, it is reported, stipulates, as the price of her active alliance, for one-half of the conquests which may be made by the arms of Persia; and the reigning SCRAM, with his usual infatua tion, is said to have acceded to,these terms. In all this there is quite enough to justify—nay, to demiind—the most prompt and energetic measures on the part of our Government, both at home and in India. THIS time the cabal must be rigorously watched. Explanations must be demanded in a tone to admit of no paltering or eva sion; and it is high time that Russian duplicity should succumb, despite itself, to the plain speaking of British honour. If the charges be unfounded, Russia will have no right to complain of being called on for a categorical and distinct disavowal of them, after the unremoved presumptions against her good faith, left by the former transactions at Herat. If the charges have any founda tion at all, the sooner the acknowledgment is exacted from the Russian Government the better. The sooner, in that case, will the necessary attitude be assumed by ourselves for vindicating our own rights, and preven.ing future tampering with them by enforcing satisfaction for, or, in the alternative, by punishing present attempts upon them. It should not be endured for a single moment, that this ambitious Government should, with impunity, renew those treacherous and un principled designs against the dynasty and authority of Great Britain in the noblest empire of Asia, which, in the judgment of all Europe, we believe, only escaped de tection two years ago by the suicidc—or the violent re moval—of the Russian agent who then set them in motion. r In the continued absence of all official dispatches concern ing the affair at Tamatave, the capital of Madagascar, in which a conjoint force of English sailors and French soldiers and sailors were fairly beaten back, though not until after they had accomplished the main object of their enterprise (to rescue the persons and property of the Europeans resident in the place), we forbear to offer any commentary on the facts which attended the operation. We must, for the present, ab stain, for similar reasons, from animadverting on the bar barous tyranny of the native QUEEN—the widow of the noble RADAMA, our ancient ally, and, in his life-time, a generous convert to the policy of discontinuing domestic slavery and the trade in slaves with foreign Powers. As we should rather say, perhaps, that we will treat these matters, for the present, hypothetically only—as establishing the inferences necessary for our purpose ; namely, that the QtrEEx had been guilty of intolerable oppressions and cruelty to the French and English subjects settled, under the faith of treaties, in her dominions—that the English and French au thorities of the Mauritius and Isle of Bourbon were fully jus tified in demanding, on the behalf of those Europeans, that these cruelties and vexations should be discontinued ; and, in the event of that satisfaction being refused, in p ß u y n itsihtiien timeg i n h e we carrying off t h e objects of their infliction by force, and mdeouslt,tsifolta l t hmea failurenn erth o e f tnative original r opera tionsssoi•s. has been amp l y and memorably repaired. Sir Wm. GOMM, we all know, is not a man to put up with failure • Or to furl the flag he has once planted until it,has fluttered the breeze of victory. But we a re atit i ous, on the - in tiori that the tyranny and contumacy of this Malagash, QUEEN have been such as they are reported in the last ad vices, to extract a lesson of political experience for those maritime powers which, oflate years, in various regions of t i ne globe, have been over forward and under scrupulous in enforc ing from feeble states or unarmed-savages excessive reparation for trifling injuries. The last voyage of discovery by an ex ploring expedition fitted oat by the United States, com manded by Captain WILKES of their navy, supplies us with the last instance of one of these wholesale and indiscriminate slaughters which civilized man, armed with the terrible en gines of destruction and death that modern science has helped him to, can at any time inflict on naked islanders for offences, or even for crimes, the natural consequences of their untutored impulses, their benighted ignorance, their head strong wilfulness. We could not help contrasting, on lately perusing Captain 'WILKES'S " Narrative," the conduct of the United States' officers in command of this expedition with the generous forbearance and thought ful humanity of our own FRANKLYNS and LYONS, under similar or more exciting circumstances of provocation- The French, in their excessive exactions in the Rio Plate, on the pretence of compensation to a compatriot pastry-cook, whose pattypans had been pillaged, in a popular tumult; in their seizure of one of the Marquesas, is their chivalric enter prise against Otaheite, and other such operations, have lately been busied in enlisting the indignant sympathy of the Eu ropean public in the cause of those who have been the vic tims of their superior and overmatching force. They have gained nothing by their successes. Loss of life, damage of character, and large outlay of money, have been the only realised results at which they have arrived after wading through a dreary series of acts of injustice and aggression for their attainment. Is it nothing to have weakened the moral influence of their name in Madagascar, where it has stood so bigb, for upwards of a century, by a species of piratical " occupations " really not more justifiable by the law of nations than Captain Mozaca's seizure of Panama whilst ransom was being collected, or the earlier peccadilloes in this sort of Sir FRANCIS DRAKE, or the later operations of Sir JOHN NARBOROUGH, or Old DAMPIER ? The facts of the Marquesas and Otaheite affairs had been as well known, for months prior to this conjoint expedition of a French and English force at Tamatave, as they were in London or in Paris. We were assured, long ago, by parties connected with the trade of Madagascar, and who have occasionally resided in that magnificent island, that there was a feeling of jealous animosity towards the Fren.:ll, half fear and half hatred, growing up among the Malagashes, which had its immediate origin in apprehensions of their ultimate designs on the inde pendence of the country. This feeling, we have no doubt, was that which emboldened the ferocious and licentious " RANAVOLA MANJAKA" and her black OnLOFFS and Po- TESIKINS to refuse, with insolent contempt, all previous con cessions, or even negotiations, when applied to by an officer of her Britannic MAJESTY'S navy. Now, the lesson we read in these facts is—that that retribution which all of us recognise in the system of the moral, equally pervades the scheme of the political world. If this be so, in deed, we would fain hope that the Government of France, taught by the experience of the past, will in future find no reason for acknowledging in catastrophes of this kind that its own conduct has challenged them. The Madrid Gazette, of the 25th of September, publishes a royal decree of some importance, relative to the Univer sities of Spain. A royal college is to be - established at Madrid ; the Universities of Barcelona, Grenada, Madrid, Oviedo, Salamanca, Santiago, Seville, Valencia, Valladolid' and Saragossa are to be maintained; and those of the Ca nary Islands, Huesca, and Toledo are to be converted into secondary institutions. The Universities of Madrid, Oviedo, Seville, Valladolid, and Saragossa are to have faculties of theology, and those of Madrid, Barcelona, Santiago, and Va lencia, faculties of medicine. The decree appears to give general satisfaction. Colonel D'OrcrEcu, a member of the Cortes, had been arrested at Saragossa, and sent under escort to Madrid, but the charge against him is not published. According to accounts from Gibraltar, of the 18th or Sep tember, the treaty conducted by Sweden and Denmark with Morocco on the sth, respecting the suppression of the tri bute hitherto paid by those two Christian Powers, were ex changed at Tangiers on the 14th. Nothing was done on the Madrid Bourse on the 25th. The Paris Opposition journals can at last boast of one of their candidates being returned during the recent elections, though the victory has not been obtained in a very legitimate way, The High Royalists and the Republicans and Radicals clubbed their votes together, and defeated the Ministerial candidate at Douai. M. CIIOQUE, the Opposition candidate, had 264 votes; M. DANEL obtained 255, only 9 short of his opponent, and these were given by the Legitimatists. The Opposition papers of all parties rejoice in the result. The Quotidienne, a Royalist journal, thus proclaims the triumph, and holds out the promise of still greater victories The elections which have just taken place prove that the Royalist party draws fresh force and courage from the wretchedness of the present state of things. They show that the electoral body is un dergoing an important transformation. In all the colleges, which met on the 20th and 27th, the number of the Opposi tion votes has increased. We must, in conclusion, repeat the assertion, that it is to the Royalists that in a great mea sure is due this cleverly managed struggle. Let us hope that their example will be followed. France seemed to be shut ting her eyes to the perils which surround her; now, that she beholds where she is being led, she comprehends the necessity of action. Our friends in all the pro vinces will consider it their duty to initiate the IteYeiCtB of Blois, Coutances, Douai, and 174,,,deine. CAM letters an•aounce to us a firm resolution to exhibit on the occasion of the general election the same activity, the same union, and the same fidelity to engagements." " Thus, then," says the National, "it is seen that the Opposition has gained the victory, and the Ministry is de feated—beaten precisely in the college upon which it most confidently relied. Poor M. MARTIN (du Nord) is also cast down ! Poor man! His good town of Douai has failed him! He had answered for it with his head, and it has refused to redeem the pledge which was so precious . to him ! Good Gon! whither can he fly? Thus the Opposition may dis pense with blowing the trumpet of victory in honour of his success. The election of M. CsloquE will not certainly put down the ' Ministere de l'Etranger,' nor the Penske du Regne.' Still it is not without importance." M. TRIERS' journal thus joins in the song of triumph:— " Here is a complete check for the Ministry. The election took place in the seat of a Cour Royale, and in an arrondisse ment of which the other half sends M. MARTIN (du Nord), Minister of Justice, to the Chamber. It was against M. DA'SEL, a member of the parquet of the Cour Royale of Douai, that the Opposition candidate had to struggle, and M. CliocluE gained tht victory. Let us add up : M. MARMIER is elected at Jussev, against M. AMEDEE TIIIERRY, 111. GIIIZOT'S can didate; M. DELZERS is elected at Espalion, against M. Pons, the Ministerial candidate, who had just been promoted to a function of the magistrature. Out of the nine re-elections which the promotions to the peerage rendered necessary, eight are known; the Ministry has received two checks. M. DERELLETME, jun., was only elected after havingsigned a de claration drawn up by the Opposition. 111. CLIOQUE has ob tained a triumph so much the more remarkable, that his po litical opinions were clearly marked, and that he struggled against the most active and most direct Ministerial influence. We shall again refer to the result of these partial elections, which may beforehand allow an opinion to be formed of the definite result of the general elections." The Ministerial journals merely state the result of the election. On Monday the KING, accompanied by the Mi nister of Commerce and Generals GOURGAUD and D'HOUDE TOT, took his usual carriage exercise at Eu. "It appears," says the Memorial de Rouen, " that the works for extending to Eu the port of Treport, which will assume the name of Philippe Port,' are about to commence. It is also said that the railroad from Rouen to Dieppe will be immediately pro longed to the same royal residence." The Prince and Princess of SALErmo had arrived in Paris, and were lodged at the Elyge-Bourbon, in the apartments which the EMPEROR occupied during the Hundred Days. They are to remain about ten days in Paris, and will then proceed to Fontainableau, where the KING will also repair, and thence they return to Italy. The France, a Royalist journal, thus points out the critical state of the savings' bank of Paris The last weekly return of the savings' bank of Paris is really frightful. The total amount of the investments was only 501,135 f, whilst the reimbursements made, and the demands for reimbursements during the same period, amount to the enormous sum of 2,367,728 f. This comparative result, which is certainly without precedent in the annals of the savings' banks, will appear more frightful, when it is known that the innumerable mass of all the small capitals abstracted from economy are about to be lost in the new disorders of jobbing in shares. The gambling in the railroads enters for at least nine-tenths in these deplorable speculations. Was this the object of the law of 1842 ? Could the legislator forsee that the railroads would be the fruit of the investments of the small capital of the precious savings of the laborious classes, which we would call the fortune of the indigent? Could the legislator desire that the denier of the poor, earned by the sweat of their brow, and reserved as the means of bread for the days of non-occupation, should be scandalously adven tured in all the risks of the agio, and be carried off by spe culators more clever, more practised, and frequently less honest? At the approach of a winter which appears to pro mise much rigour and misery, this mad displacement of small capitals, these continual and constantly increasing subtrac tions from the savings of the poor, ought to fix the special attention and solicitude of the Government. It is to the Minister of Public Works in particular that we address our selves, for it belongs to him to put an end to these scandalous disorders. By advancing at least the moment of the last adjudications which remain to be made for this' year, and putting an end to the delays contrived for the advancement of isolated interests, he will the more speedily quench the fever of speculation which has for some time menaced the fortunes of the public, and which transforms society into a coupe-gorge industrhl." In reference to the gamblings in railroad shares the Revue des Deux Mondes says : " A single question at present engrosses attention—that of the railroads. We may even say that that question bas, for the last month, seriously; pre-occupied the public mind. The enthusiasm felt for railroads continues unabated, and the confidence of capitalists in the advantages offered by_those im mense enterprises, so far from diminishing has perhaps increased. But it is nevertheless true that the present situation calla for the consideration of the most enlightened men, and the greatest vigilance on the part of the Government. Two extensive lines, Strasburg and Lyons, are to be adjudged in the months of No cember and December. It is to be apprehended that several of the Companies which have constituted themselves to bid for their concession are not serious, and that it would be out of their power to complete so gigantic a work. 'What occurred relative to the northern road, the prospect of joining a powerful Company, perhaps also the hope of carrying the adjudication by a rash offer, give birth awry morning to new companies, whose competition becomes a danger for public credit, and compromises the very existence of railway communications. The Government is warned. The law furnishes it with sufficient means to disarm an irregular and immoral competition, and it must use them. We trust that the superior Committee, guided and supported by public opinion, will display the utmost severity in the examination of the titles of each company. • Serious competition must be expected; such is the object of the law; but jobbing is not competition. It was not the desire of the Chambers that railroads should fall into the hands of hawkers of premiums and insatiable gamblers. A crisis in the railroads might cause serious financial embarrassments, and probably bring about a political crisis of which it would be difficult to cal culate the consequences. The anarchical factions openly speculate on such a crisis, and the Government would assume a very great responsibility if it did not adopt the measures necessary to moderate er prevent it." We subjoin miscellaneous extracts from the continental papers :- The Presse says that it appears to be certain that a new creation of Peers will be made very shortly. A Marseilles journal announces that Don Carlos and the Princess de Beira were to leave that city on the 2d, for Nice. The Dusseldorf and Aix-la-Chapelle Gazettes publish a Berlin letter, stating that the Prussian Cabinet has decided upon not recognising the present order of things in Spain until a marriage of conciliation with the Prince of the As turias has given a certain guarantee to Europe. The official organ of the deparment of foreign affairs of Russia has just published an article explanatory of the Im perial ukase - of June 19, which has been considered by the French merchants as an act of reprisals against the modifica tions made in our customs' duties, in what concerns some of the articles which come to us from Russia. We read in the Leipsic Gazette :-" Letters from Odessa confirm the accounts of the reverses experienced by the Rus sians in the Daghestan. The army of Prince Woronzow had arrived at Gersel, a fortress on the extreme frontier of the Caucasus." The Cologne Gazette states from Berlin, that a project of convoking a general council ofthe clergy of all sects in Prussia, with a view to hearing their opinions on the religious ques tions which agitate the public in that country, is under con sideration.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was exceed ingly dull. Sales 2,504 bales, all to the trade. There was no alteration in prices.—Shares were quiet, but steady, and prices were fairly supported. So numerous are the issues of new railway projects, that it is with Very considerable difficulty that we can, in the ordinary space allotted to this department, to keep pace, so as to notice those projects, which rarely have the appearance of bona fides about them. In such cases as these we must consider it a duty to refer to them, and alsolto point out the liabilities of failure when upon the face of the scheme doubts of success exist. The prospectus of a Direct West End and Croydon line has just been placed before us, and it is well supported. As the whole details will appear in the advertising columns of to-morrow (the arrangements being scarcely yet com plete), we would rather defer comment upon the matter for a day or two, so as to afford time for full consideration. The Wheat trade has been scarcely so brisk to-day as it has been, though there is an apparent firmness in prices The duty is on the advance, and considerable samples have been taken for home consumption, but moreespecially for exporta; tion. The wholesale departments of trade continue in a satisfactory state. The anticipations of the yield of the re venue for the present quarter in the City are of the most satisfactory character. The Consol Market has been rather flat this morning, with an inconsiderable amount of business going on. At present, however, there is more firmness, and money is pretty plen tiful. Consols for the Account are at 98 to 98%, and for Transfer 98 %. There is no alteration in the value of Ex chequer-bills. The Foreign Funds are more in request. The Portuguese Converted Stock is firm. Spanish and the other Bonds have varied but a little. The Railway Shares are very firm, but the official list of prices has been issued so late that an extended reference to quotations is impossible now. ONE CLOSING PRICES OF BRITISH FUNDS. O'CLOCK.

DENDRE VALLEY RAILWAY - AND CANAL COMPANY. —The Directors of this Company, which, connects both by rail and canal some of the most important towns in Belgium, will shortly publish their report. The estimation in which this line has stood, is fully shown by the fact that the shares have always been at a premiuth. /lie operations have been commenced, and are in active progress, and junctions with the State lines may be expected to be announced. The ad vantage of rail and canal carriage is very important for the peculiar tray of this district: MARKET' NEWS --(THIS DAY.) --~-~--- CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY. The arrivals of English Wheat for our market since Mon day have been on a very moderate scale ; hence the show of samples of that description of grain here was by no means extensive. However, as the attendance of buyers was com paratively small, the demand for it was in a sluggish state. The finest parcels of both red and white mostly sold at full rates of currency ; but all other kinds could not be sold ex cept at a slight depression in value. Very little fine Foreign Wheat was on offer, yet it was fully adequate to ; meet the wants of the buyers. In all descriptions very little was doing, at barely late rates. The demand for bonded Grain for export to Holland hay ing ceased, scarcely a transaction took place, and prices were almost nominal. No new English Barley at market. Grind ing and distilling sorts were without alteration. We had only a retail trade for Malt ; but, as very little was on oiler, late prices were maintained for the best parcels. A full average quantity of Oats has reached us this week from Ire land, yet the trade was steady, and the quotations were well supported. In Beans, next to nothing was doing, and the currencies had a downward. tendency. Maple and Grey Peas were dull and cheaper to sell. In Flour no sales reported. English • • • • • • - ARRIVALS. Wheat.

Owing to the unfavourable state of the weather for slaughtering, the Beef trade was extremely dull, at barely stationary prices. The supply of Foreign Stock consisted of only 50 Beasts and 20 Sheep. The numbers of Sheep were small, yet the sale for them was heavy, at late rates. For Veal, the inquiry was very inactive, at a decline in the quotations of 2d per 81bs.

J RE MILLS. This insolvent, who had kept the Blue Posts public-house, Southampton-buildings, came up for his adjourned final order. Mr. DUNCAN appeared on behalf of a Mr. Shar pies to oppose, on the grounds that there had been a vexatious defence to an action and an improper dis posal of property. It appeared that an action had been brought for a balance of account for 251., but the verdict was only for 51., but on the execution being put iu it was dis covered that the whole of the property had been swept away by a previous writ, at the suit of the insolvent's mother. Mr. Duncan pressed for an adjournment. The Learned COMMISSIONER said that, as this was an ad journed meeting, he did not think it ought to be adjourned .again, as it would be forming a very bed precedent; the opposing creditor should have been prepared with his case. As, however, it was a case fraught with suspicion, he would adjourn it at the cost of the creditor, and the insolvent's mother should be called. Mr. DUNCAN said that Mr. Sharpies would consent to pay . the costs -Adjourned. SECONDARIES.-(THIS DAT.) (Before Mr. Secondary POTTER.) WILLIAMS AND ANOTHER V. GALLIARD. The plaintiffs in this action are managers of a loan society in Red-cross-street, City. The demand was for fit 13s. on a bill of exchange, of which the defendant was alleged to be the acceptor. The defendant, who conducted his own case, pleaded non-acceptance. On the part of the plaintiff, a witness was called who de posed that he was present in May, 1844, when he saw the defendant sign the bill. The witness was rigidly cross-exa mined on that point, but persisted in his identity of the de fendant. He was further questioned as to whether the loan for which the bill was given had not been paid. The Learned SECONDARY said that the defendant must confine himself to the plea of non-acceptance; he could not now be admitted to prove payment. The defendant said it was very hard on him ; he was too poor to employ a professional adviser. He then addressed the jury, denying most positively that he ever signed the bill. He said the acceptance'was not even in his name, as there was an error in the spelling. The Learned SECONDARY said that the defendant had un fortunately not taken the steps to try the issues now raised ; it was a simple question whether or not he accepted the bill. The defendant said, the truth was, a lodger of his had re presented him without his knowledge, but that the amount of the loan had been paid. It was strange twelve months were allowed to elapse before he was called on. The SECONDARY said that the jury bad but one issue to try, and he did not see how they could set aside sworn evi dence on mere assertion. Verdict for the amount claimed. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. (THIS DAY.) Mary Evans, a female of homely look and meanly clad. was charged with intending to drown herself in the Serpen tine River. She was observed by Charles Griffiths, one of the boatmen belonging to the Royal Humane Society, who gave informa tion to John Hawkins, police-constable, No. 157 of the A division, who took the prisoner into custody. On her way to the station-house she admitted that she intendedto drown herself. _ _ -------- The prisoner, in answer to inquiries put to her by Mr. Hardwick, stated that she was 24 years of age, and had been living in service in the family of Mr. Scrivener, butcher of Reading. A farmer's son, who visited the family, seduced her, and induced her to follow him to London, a short time since. She lived with him about three weeks, in some place in the City. About a week ago he deserted her, leaving her pennyless. She was forced to quit the lodgings they had oc cupied, and wandered about until she got a lodging at Pad dington,which she was obliged to leave the night before last ; her only change of apparel being detained for the rent. Mr. HAnDwicx—ls the account you have given of your self true? Prisoner—lt is, I assure you. My father is a col lector of rates, and parish lerk of Wellingford. Mr. HAnDwicK—Why not, rather than purposing this most wicked act, sinning against the laws of God and reason, make an effort to get back again to your family? Prisoner (crying)—l wish to do so, Sir, but my shame— Mr. HAnnwicK—lf you will promise not to repeat the wicked attempt you have made on your life, the means shall be furnished you of returning to your family. Prisoner— I am verry sorry, I assure you ; I'll never do it again. Au inspector of the C division said she was literally famishing when brought to the station-house. She had no tuoney about her. Scott, the principal officer for serving the processes of the Court, was ordered to attend to the unfortunate young woman's return to her parents. THE WEATHER.—During the last few days we have had a foretaste of winter. From Saturday night till Monday morning we experienced a succession of stormy blasts from the south-west, accompanied by hail showers of unwonted severity, which rendered it unsafe for any one to be out of doors during their prevalence. Such was the vio lence of the storm that it sent the hail against the windows in exposed situations with a force that threatened to demo lish every pane of glass. In the upper districts of the county, where unfortunately the greater part of the grain is still out, the stooks were laid totally prostrate, and the uncut crop has suffered considerably from the deluge of rain that fell. This backward turn of the weather, it is to be feared, may endanger the safety of many parcels of crop in late lying places. The storm, we perceive, has been extensive in its range.

DEATH OF EARL SPENCER. It is our painful duty to announce the demise of Earl Spencer, on Wednesday last, at his seat Wiseton Hall, Nottinghamshire. The Noble Earl was ill only a fort night. His disease is understood to have been gout in the stomach. His medical advisers in the neighbour hood bad called in Mr. Keate and under their united care the Noble Earl was progressing, it was hoped, towards recovery, when on Tuesday unfavourable symptoms again manifested themselves, and on Wed nesday the Noble Earl breathed his last. Earl Spencer was born on the 30th May, 1782, and, after the usual course of preliminary study, he entered at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he took the degree of M.A. At the age of twenty-one he, as Lard Althorp, entered the House of Commons, being returned for Okehampton ; and in 1806, on the death of Mr. Pitt, started as a candidate for the representation of Cam bridge University, in opposition to Lord Henry Petty (the present Marquis of Lansdowne) and Lord Palmers ton, on which occasion he was defeated by Lord Henry Petty by a large majority. In the same year he contested the county of Northampton, and was returned at the head of th.. r at, —Lt.!. represent until called to the Upper House by the death of his father, in 1834, During the Fox and Grenville Administration Lord Althorp was a Lord of the Treasury; he resigned his office when that Ministry was broken up, and continued steadily in opposition until 1830. During this period Lord Althorp had acquired a high character in the House of Commons as a sound, steady, practical man of business. A statesman, rather than orator, he spoke seldom, but when he did speak he was always listened to with great attention. On financial subjects and on matters connected with agriculture Lord Althorp was always looked up to as an authority, and whenever questions on either of those subjects were under discussion, Lord Althorp always spoke, and be always spoke well. Kind-hearted, benevolent,' tolerant, and humane, his private cha racter was excellent, and this gave him a weight and an authority which even the most trim scendant abilities fail to bestow, unless joined with honesty of intention and kindness of man ner. When Earl Grey came into power in Novem ber, 1830, Lord Althorp received the appointment of Chancellor of the Exchequer, and at the Same' time officiated as Ministerial leader in the House of Com mons. The death of his father, on the 2d of November, 1834, called him to the Upper House, and this removal was made the excuse for breaking up the Ministry, of which Lord Althorp was at that time the most idluential member. From the time he became Earl Spencer he retired altogether from the political world, appearing only at agricultural meetings, and then in general cautiously eschewing all allusions to party politics. About two years since, however, Earl Spencer, who had previously been in favour of a pro tecting duty on corn, announced that he had seen reason to change his views on that subject, and from that time he has advocated free-trade principles. Although during late years Earl Spencer mingled not in the busy affairs of life, he was not idle. His agricultural pursuits afforded him amusing, mad healthful, and useful recreation, and his mind was employed in the study of "Divine philosophy." That these studies produced good fruit, we have ample proof in the very interesting conversations between him self and Lord Brougham, which have been so minutely recorded by the latter Noble Lord. The deceased Nobleman is thus,described in Lodge's Peerage :—" John Charles Spencer, Earl Spencer, Vis count Althorp, county of Nottingham, and Viscount and Baron Spencer, of Althorp, in the same county, in the Peerage of Great Britain ; P.C. ; a Commissioner for the Duchy of Cornwall ; and M.A. ; was born on the 30th of May, 1782, and succeeded on the 10th of No vember, 1834. His Lordship married on the 14th of April, 1814, Esther, only daughter and heir of the late Richard Acklom, Esq., of Wiseton Hall, in the county of Nottingham, by Elizabeth Bernard, sister of the first Earl of Bandon, but her Ladyship died without issue on the 11th of June, 1818." His Lordship is succeeded by his brother, the Hon. Captain Frederick Spencer, R.N., C. 8., Cross of St. Louis of France, Knight of St. Anne of Russia second class, and of the Redeemer of Greece, Equerry to her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, who was born on the 14th of April, 1798, and married on the 23d of Sep tember, 1830, Elizabeth Georgians, second daughter of the late William Stephen Poyntz, Esq., of Cowdray House, Sussex, M.P., by whom he has issue three chil pdroeynn,tzGe(ourogwianavFisrcaunucnets,AbiotrnhorpA)p, April 0 2 r 5 n , 0 18 c 3 to 2 b ; er Jo 2 h 7 n , 1835 ; and Sarah Isabella, born April 7, 1838. The mortal remains of the late Marquis of Ely will be interred at Kenmore churchyard, about four miles from Ely Lodge, but the precise day for the funeral will not be fixed until the arrival of the present Marquis, who was expo cted on Wednesday, from Scotland. WILL OF THE LATE MARQUIS OF DOWNSUTUE.— Probate has been granted by the Prerogative Court to the Marquis of Downshire, on the property of t he late Mar q uis, who died intestate, and the personalty sworn under 200,0001. The duty on taking out probate was 4,0501., the largest sum ever paid in any single case in this cou ntr y . So hi g hl y esteemed was the late Marquis in King's County and neigh bourhood, where he had property, and always acted as a kind and considerate landlord, that both Protestants and Catholics are uniting to raise a fund for the erection of a monument to his memory.
