London, Soc. • SIT LOIII3,—TIIe recent calamitous Fire at Quebec has destroyed one-third part of the Clty. The scene of the Conflagration was densely inhabited, chiefly by a labouring population of Canadian French, who had crowded around the manufactories, and other Places of business, where they found empl , 1 heir dwellings and the establishments which enabled the, to earn a mainte nance have been destroyed together. In the brief space of twelve hours, property to the amount of nearly a million has been destroyed, and 12 .000 haman beings left without food, a roof, clothing; or a bed to lie on. The fellow-colonists of the sufferers have exerted them selves nobly. In the course of a week upwards of 20,0001. was col lected in Quebec and Montreal, besides large supplies of provisions and clothes. But even during that week it had been necessary to expend one-fourth of the money subscribed to supply the daily wants of so many reduced to beggary. To rebuild the ruined quarters will require much time as well as money, and in a few months a Canadian Winter will close in upcn this mass of destitution. The necessity of the case has compelled the Citizens of Quebec to appeal for assistance to their fellow-subjects in the mother country and sister colonies. Under these circumstances the undersigned respecttblly request that Your Lordship will be pleased to convene a Meeting of Merchants, Bankers, and others, to originate a Subscription for the relief of the Sufferers in Quebec, and that you will also be pleased to preside on the occasion.

At a Meeting held on the 29th ultimo, of the Committee appointed by the County of Inverness, for promoting the erection at Inverness Of a Lunatic Asylum, for Pauper and other Lunatics of the Northern Counties of Scotland ; We, the undersigned, William H. Colquhoun, Advocate, Sheriff- Substitute of Inverness-shire, and John Mackenzie, hanker in In verness, were appointed a Thputation to solicit Subscriptions in Loll. don, in aid of the proposed Asylum. And being now arrived here, in pursuance of our mission, we beg leave to send you some particulars regarding the proposed establish ment, in the hope that you will be pleased to give it the benefit of your support by contribution or otherwise, Under that impression, we will do ourselves the honou.r of waiting on you, in a day or 1 , •o, to learn you r d e t ermination; but should we .e so unfortunate , :s2 not to have an opportunity of seeing you p e r sona lly, we h o p e yon will oni be kind enough to favour us with your views, to the above address, or before 12th instant. lunatics in poor c r The primary object of the projected Institution is the t a c e n c i o n , s n t m a lion of pauper inn aics, and of other e cl e a s In the northern counties of scofi s ani. eocompass' an extent 01 s urface equal to one-third of all .cc tland, tn,l have a population of about 250,000. Yet, with the wxcepton of a very few col s a tacked to the Infirmary at Inverness, there is not any provision made in all this wide district for the secure confinement or meeical treatment of the insane, the poorer classes of whom, amounting in number to up wards of 700, are left in estate of wretched destitution, either burden some to their poor relatives and paralysing their industry, or roam • trig about the country in search of a precarious subsistence—pitiable on account of their calamity, often alarming and dangerous to the community from their furious conduct, at once the disgrace, the in- Nry, and the terror of the country. To abate this crying evil, this heart-sickening and frightfill neglect and destitution, it is proposed to erect at Inverness, as the most celtral and convenient point, an Asylum for pauper lunatics, and for other lunatics in poor circumstances belonging to the northern coun ties. As a subsidiary and ulterior measure, provision will be made for the addition afterwards of apartments for richer classes of patients. The funds for this purpose can only be obtained by the voluntary c ontributions of such benevolent persons as are interested in the wel fare of the wide district of country referred to, or in the mitigation of human suffering renerally. It is estimated that at least 8,000/. will be required to erect the necessary buildings, and to form a fund for the permanent endowment of the Institution. Already considerable progress has been made, principally in the North of Scotland, in pro curing subscriptions ; and hopes are confidently entertained that with Metropolitan, and perhaps Colonial aid, the necessary funds will be obtained to secure this invaluable boon for the poor, and re move one of the worst blots on the humanity of our countrymen. The-rules for the government of the Institution will be of course de termined at a general meeting of the Subscribers, and will be sub mitted to them on principles fitted to secure a liberal and efficient system of management, comprehending the chief official funtionaries of the district, but giving to tha Subscribers due and ample powers of control and recommendation. We are, respectfully, Your very obedient servants, (Signed) NV. H. COLQIYHOUN. JOHN MACKENZIE.

This short but important 'railway will commence by forming a junction at the viaduct over the river Trent, near Alrewas, on the Birmingham and Derby Railway, and proceed in nearly a straight line to Dudley, being a distance of about twenty-one miles, forming a direct and unbroken railway communication between Derby and the North Midland Counties and Worcestershire, Herefordshire, and the other South-Western Counties of England. This railway includes in its course the city of Lichfield and the large and rapidly increasing town of Walsall ; leaving which it will continue through the manufacturing and mining districts of Wednee bury and Tipton, to its terminus at Dudley, where it will unite with the railways connecting Stourbrldge, Kidderminster, Steurport, and Worcester, and the whole of the south-west district. Near Itescot Bridge it will join the Grand Junction Railway, so as to form the shortest route to Birmingham ; and by means of a branch through Darlaston and Bilston, to join the proposed lines from Bir mingham and Dudley, will also form the most direct line to Wolver wv - • transit of manufactured iron, &c., from the centre of the vast mineral and manufacturing districts of South Staffordshire, to Gains borough and Hull, and to Sneflield and the other great markets of the North. The ironstone and other produce of the Derbyshire mines will also lee brought by means of this railway direct to the furnaces of Stafford shire, and the coal tbain Cannock Chase and Brownhills (the best for domestic purposes), will be conveyed at a small cost to supply the towns of Walsall, Wolverhampton and Birrei_ gham. The Hay Head lime, and that of Rushall, the former considered the best for hydraulic works, and the latter fbr agricultural purposes and for the manufacture of iron, together with the blue bricks and tiles of Walsall Wood, at pT scent so much in demand, but nearly excluded for want of railway access, will all be brought directly into the proper markets, and will form an immense tratile for this railway. Some estimate of the Passenger Traffic my be forme...! when it Is stated that the population of the towns emlirs;c, d by this unth , rtaking amounts to nearly three hundred thousand; 'nd when the enormous traffic which must result from opening up tie mo'.t feveured district in England is considered, there can he no doubt that the construction of this railway, beelde, the great benefit arising to the public, will pi r o ,, N i • i e m , l l7 a a rv n sauivr.,,..eierg,tit amply remunerative to the Shareholders. have wit.de, and the line is favourable both as r 'trarAs gradients,. economy of construction, and ffiture working. There are no . exp. n.sive earth works or engineering difficulties, and the estimate is under the usual average per mile; and the Brie is so laid out as not to Interfere with any ornamental property.

THE JERSEY - CASE:L.-Mr. WILSON.—The course so unexpectedly adopted by the Jersey authorities, and the refusal of the writ of Habeas by the Court of Exchequer, equally unexpected by all Mr. Wilson's legal advisers, have thrown increased difficulty in the way of Mr. Wilson, in obtaining redress for the wrongs inflicted upon him. A few gentlemen, friends of Mr. Wilson, considering that after the unequivocal admission of the illegality and injustice of their pro ceedings, made by the Jersey authorities themselves, by their re lease or rather forcible ejection from prison of Mr. Wilson, there can no longer exist any doubt as to the manifest wrong and injury com mitted by them, and considering, too, that Mr. Wilson has, in his own person, at considerable anxiety, expense, and personal suffering, establi , hed a great constitutional privilege, which was sought to be attacked, have formed themselves into a Committee for the purpose receiving subscriptions, and otherwise assisting Mr. Wilson in obtain ing the most complete redress of which his case is capable. The Committee will sit daily, from One till Five, at the Southamp ton Tavern, Southampton-buildings, Chancery-lane, and will be happy to afford information to all persons who may favour them by making inquiry. G. W. BRADY, Hon. Sec. NEWARK and SHEFFIELD RAILWAY' The Committee of Management beg to announce to the Shareholders that they have every reason to believe the Bill was de feated in Committee by the production, on the part of their oppo nents, of an alternative line, the plan and section of which the pro moters of the Bill were not allowed any opportunity pf testing before the case was closed ; they have since done so, and ascertained the section to be most incorrect—in fact, twenty chains longer than it ought to have been, by which the gradients were, of course, propor tionably flattened. The discovery and proof of this error have not, however, been deemed of sufficient importance to warrant a re-committal of the Bill. The very general support which the Newark and Sheffield line, with its extensions, has received, coupled with the strong recom mendation from the Board of Trade on public grounds, affords the best assurance that it must obtain the sanction of the Legislature in the next session of Parliament. In the meantime, a new and careful survey of the whole line will be made by skilful engineers, and every requisite means adopted by such modifications of the original line and additional extensions, as will render the scheme as perfect as possible, and secure the inte rests of the Shareholders. An account of the expenses will be made up as soon as possible, and the Shareholders who wish to withdraw from the undertaking are requested to give notice of their intention to the Secretary before the Ist of August next. All persons who do not give such intima tion previous to that date, will be held as participating in the amended project. By order, JOHN DENNISTON, Secretary.

Messrs Patterson, Haymes, and Hanbury, Leamington and Warwick Hunt, Esq., and Charles Stevens, Esq., No. 10, Whitehall, London Messrs. Clay and Swift, Liverpool. The object of this undertaking is to establish the most direct and efficient railway communication that can be formed between Bir mingham and Oxford, connecting by the shortest possible route the whole of the Lancashire manufacturing districts and sea-ports with the south of England and its long line of coast in the British Chan nel. The existing lines afford but a very imperfect and circuitous communication through London, and it is singular that the com peting lines of railway now before the public do not supply the de ficiency orprovide for the objects now contemplated. Under these circumstances, there can be no doubt that this railway will confer essential benefits on the districts through which it is intended to pass, as well as on the commercial and industrious classes of the north, and a very cursory inspection of the map will satisfy the inquirer that the line is so peculiarly situate as to command an unusually large amount of through traffic, independent of its local resources, which are very great. It cannot fail to be observed, that the Birmingham and Oxford Junction will save a considerable distance on the route towards the Etattrf besides and Oxford, Reading, &c., while the cheapness of construction and excellence of the gradients will enable the Company to convey pas sengers and goods at very low rates, such as would not remunerate an expensive line, but which are calculated to afford an ample return for the small capital required for this undertaking. The railway will commence by a comexlon with the Grand Junc tion Railway at Birmingham, and, proceeding in nearly a straight line by Warwick And Leamington, fall into the intended Oxford and Rugby Line, Lear Fenny (7on.pton ; the entire distance from Bir mingham to Oxford will thus be about 62 miles. The Stratford• on-Avon line which will be constructed simulta neously with the line by Warwick and Leamington, will join the main railway at or near to Kingswood. From Stratford-on-Awn to Moreton-in-the-Marsh, by an improvement of the existing railway, a distance of 14 miles, the communication through Stratford will be complete to Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton line, d the Oxford, "ending. and the south of England It is confidently believed that this extension of the Oxford line to the Grand Junction Railway at Birmingham, taking Leamington and Warwick hi its course, will runtish such strong corroborative proof of the public importance and necessity of the Oxford and Rugby line (now promoted by the Great Weetern Company,) as to insure its success In Parliament. If the broad gauge should be adopted, ar rangements have been made with the Great Western company to run dispatch trains between London and Birmingham in less than three hours, and also to provide, at low rates, means of conveyance for every description of traffic, whether of passengers, carriages, horses, cattle, or merchandise and minerals, The Provisional Committee, however, promote this measure as one of great national importance, and do not intend it to be contingent in any degree on the success or failure of the Oxford and Rugby Railway, but they will be guided in the final selection of the line, in the principle of construction, and in the mode of working it, by the evidence which may be adduced during the present session, and by the result of the applications now before Parliament, as far as they may appear consistent with the experience still to be obtained on the relative merits of the systems. They need only add in conclusion. that if the Oxford and Rugby line is successful, the capital of 600,0001. will be ample, as the coun• try has been carefully examined. No engineering difficulties exist, and there will be no tunnel throughout the line. The landed interests affected by the proposed railway are favour able, and the Bill will be applied for in the next session of Parliament. t, w - .

Mr. Green is attracting the public again, By taking an serial flight, now and then, Two journeys last week did he make in his car, And travers'd the heavenly regions afar. Well, what's to be said on a silken balloon ? Don't fear, gentle reader, we'll show very soon ; While gazing on Green in his lofty position, We could not help calling to mind competition ; Competition we mean in a general sense, Which strives to attain to a " height " most Immense— We can't avoid smiling at what has been done, To rise o'er the fame of E. MOSES and SON. Competition puffed out like an " airy " Balloon, Will " sink " in the public esteem very soon, And "fall to the ground," amid laughter and joke, And end all its " lofty pretension in smoke !', Not so e, ith the Warehouse of MOSES and SON, This will still stand as " high " as it always has done ; Ey'ry day it is " rising" in public esteem, While its prices are " falling " as " low " as " our" theme. With this we conclude the few rhymes we have spun, On the " Nassau Balloon," and E. MOSES and SON.

OFFICES OF THE COMPANY Scotch-street, Downpatrick Trevor-hill, Newry 26, uonegall-street, Belfast 13, Leinster Chambers, Dublin This Rail 37, Moorgate-street, London. y proposes to afford to the entire county of Down a complete system of railway communication. Commencing at the quays of Warrenpolnt, and prising through the commercial town of Newry (where it forms a junction with the Newry and Enniskillen and Dublin and Belfast Junction Railways), it traverses the entire length and breadth of the county Down, termed in the Land Commis sioners' report ‘. tie garden of Ireland." Proceeding from Newry in a northern direction, in a line almost parallel with the mall coach road, to a point about midway between Newry and Banbridge, the trunk divides into two great arteries, the one running north-westerly through Banbridge, the scat of the linen and flax trade of Ireland, fails in at Moira, on the Ulster line, thus effecting the speediest route from Dublin to Belfast ; while the other, taking an easterly direction by Reath-Hand, Castlewellan, and the assize town of Downpatrick to Comber, is there met by a most important part of this under taking, namely, a branch from the mail• packet station and port of Donaghadee, through the richly populated district and town of sew tonards, and terminates at the quays of Belfast. It will be thus seen that this comprehensive undertaking embraces every important town in the county, and affords the only dfrect and continuous route through Newry to the port of Warrenpoint ; while the branch to Donaghadee, in connexion with the proposed British and Irish Union Railway, f rom Portpatrick to Stranraer, Dumfries, a nd Glasgow, accompli shes the most expeditious and safe communica tion between Great B r i tain and Ireland. Power will be taken to extend the line from Downpatrick to the port and harbour of Ardglass, whenever it may be deemed advisable by the shareholders. The traffic tables guarantee a return on the whole line of at least seven per cent. on the proposed capital. The liability of the Shareholders will be limited to the amount of their shares, and interest at the rate of four per cent. will be allowed on the depostts and calls until the line is opened. The detailed prospectus and map can be obtained at the respective offices Company, and applications for shares may be made to thesol o ic f it t o h r e sad secretaries, as above ; and to the following brokers : —Mr. F.

WARM WEATHER, NIC OLL'S REGISTERED PALETOT, 6th and 7th Victoria t :cap. 65, twenty paces north of Quadrant, is well adapted over another coat for bad weather or evening wear, and alone during the slum; days without. The Registered Paletot is prepared, and can only be made by H. J. and D. NIC , )LL, 114, Regent-street. The material is the cloth of llama, which, in variety of colour, resembles superfine cloth, but is lighter and softer in texture. ha neat yet not formal cut gives freedom across the chest and shoulders, yet requires no sacrifice in personal appearance for 'the sake of comfort; indeed, a more graceful bearing to the figure is the result. " In the Registered Paletot there is a gentlemanly neatness, an absence of all unseemly vulgarity. It has met with the highest ap probation in the Court circle."—See the Morning Post, April 19. Price Two Guineas. The Paletot unlined is by many of our patrons surnamed " The Dustah," Thirty Shillings. From its elastic softness, it will readily fold into the small compass of the rdinary pocket. Can be sent. per post, to any part of Great Britain, for eighteen stamps. Being inexpensive, not much grief follows, if, by accident, exchanged in the hall, or left in a railway carriage. Its loss can be supplied in nearly all the principal cities in the United Kingdom. As only respectable firms are appointed agents for the sale of Nicoll's Registered Paletot, a caution is, perhaps, unnecessary. es being honoured by royal patronage, and its general popularity, there are many who desire to imitate; such persons, it is need less 0 remark. cannot be respectable, but they are warned, that by using the same name only, and though the garment itself may be altogether different in its construction, yet they are subject to the penalty, which will be enforced according to law.

Clement, Esq, At the last quinquennial meeting there was added a bonus to the Life Policies equal to 25 per cent. on the sums paid, and a bonus of 5 per 'cent. to the Shares, in addition to the payment of the annual interest. For the convenience of parties wishing to assure for a specific sum, without a prospective bonus, a new table at lower rates has been calculated, en which, as well as on the participating scale, one-half the premium may remain on interest at s,per cent. for five years, thus enabling a person to insure his life for 1,000/. on the immediate payment of the premium for 5001. only. The following are the annual Premiums for the Assurance of 1001. for the whole Life, one-half of which may remain for five years by merely paying the interest annually at five per cent. ; and should the Policy become a claim in the interim, the amount due will then be deducted.
