The object of this undertaking is to connect the port of Fal mouth with the Naval Station at Plymouth, and by the South Devon and Bristol and Exeter Railways, with Bristol, where the great lines of railway communication with the Metropolis, and the North of England now meet, and thus to bring Falmouth, the most Westernly Port in the Channel, within eleven hours of London, and fourteen hours of Liverpool and Manchester. The works of the South Devon Railway from Exeter to Ply mouth, being now in rapid progress, with a view to completion in two years, the time has arrived when it becomes essential to bring forward the plan for a western extension in conjunction with the Great Western, Bristol and Exeter, Bristol and Gloucester, and South Devon Railway Companies. The Provisional Committee having laid the plans and estimates of construction, and the traffic case in detail, before the Directors of these Companies, they have agreed to unite in contributing 250.0001. to the capital of this Railway. The Associated Companies having thus Identified themselves with this undertaking, the Cornwall Railway Company will have the advantage, in its operations, of the advice and assistance of Members of their Boards, and the works will be carried on with the approbation, and under the supervision, of the experienced and talented officers of these Companies. A large proportion of the leading landed Proprietors in the County, have given assurances of support in Land and Money—a considerable local connexion has been formed, and a large number of Shares have been taken up, and no opposition 'or difficulty is anticipated in obtaining the Act. The necessary steps have therefore been taken to bring a Bill before Parliament in the next Session for constructing the Corn wall Railway. From the surveys that have been made by Captain Moorsom, C.E., it appears that the line would pass through Torpoint, within three quarters of a mile of St. Germans, touching Liskeard, near to Bodmin and Lostwithiel, through Par, and St. Austell, by St. Stephens and Tresillian to Truro. From Truro the course of the ling would be towards Bissoe and Pollean Cross, to connect with the great Mining and Western districts of the County, and from thence by Ponsnooth and Penryn to Falmouth. The proposed line will pass through.. the richest and most densely peopled Mining. Commercial, and Agricultural districts of Cornwall. In the principal parts of these districts, the habits of the people are peculiarly locomotive. A large 'and constant passenger traffic already exists of a description which would be immensely increased by the facilities of Railway communication. The line will be connected on the north with the Wadebridge and Bodmin Railway, the Newquay Railway, and the Caradon Railway, and on the south the Par and Pentewan Railways, and the Looe and Liskeard Canal, from each of which a considerable amount of valuable traffic will be brought upon the Cornwall Rail way, and the communication nith the ports on the north and south coast greatly facilitated. The Eastern mining districts of Cornwall and Devon, around Caliington, Tavistock, and Liskeard, are much connected with the central and western Mines of St. Austell, Tywardreath, Gwen. nap, Redruth, Camborne, and Penzance, and between these popu. lous and important districts a constant and increasing intercourse exists. The completion of the Railway from Penzance, which passing through the great western mining districts, will join the proposed line of the Cornwall Railway between Truro and Falmouth, and for which a Bill is to be brought before Parliament next Session, will bring a great accession of traffic from those districts. The Cornwall Railway will not only be in itself important and of great local advantage, but will in fact be the terminus of a metropolitan trunk line, and also the terminus of a line from the great manufacturing districts of the North, so that the carriage which leaves London in the Evening, will be •t Falmouth in the Morning, after eleven hours' journey, and the Passengers from Manchester or Liverpool, may arrive at Falmouth in fourteen hours. It will also be the westernly link of the great chain of coast lines now formed, or in progress, from Dover on the east, to Penzance in the west, and will thus eventually receive the traffic of these sources, flowing to and from our western possessions. The well-known advantages and capabilities of the Port of Fal. mouth and the opinions unequivocally expressed by the Commis sioners appointed b} Government in 1840, to inquire into the com parative merits of the Ports then suggested by the Mail Packet Station, " That if a Railroad existed to the South-West Land's. end, and a harbour were constructed in that neighbourhood, where the mails might with facility be put on board and landrd, they would unhesitatingly recommend that harbour to the adoption of Government," make it evident that the construction of the pro posed Railway would render Falmouth the best Port in the kingdom for the embarkation and landing of the Mails for the West Indies, the Peninsula, the Mediterranean, and all our transatlantic pos., sessions.—That this Port will be largely used by passengers pro. ceeding by these Packets, and also by passengers arriving from and departing for our Foreign Possessions in sailing vessels, is evident from the anxiety always felt by those who have endured a long sea voyage to reach the shore, and from the desire which most persons feel to avoid the delays and danger of the Channel navigation. The reasons which now induce outward-bound Indiamen to call at Cowes or Portsmouth to embark their passengers, will apply with greater force to a more Western Port, when a Railioad shall bring that Port within eleven hours of the Metropolis. The largely increasing number of vessels, which even under the present mode of travelling, call, whether for passengers or orders, at Falmouth, shows that expectations of traffic to a large extent, may be well founded on these grounds; but in the calculations now submitted, the Committee have confined themselves to the usual increase upon the existing trade, which is alone sufficient to show that this undertaking will prove a highly advantageous investment. The estimated expense of the line, including the cost of land, preliminary and Parliamentary expenses, stations, and working stock, does not exceed the sum of 900,0004 which is to be raised by 18,000 sham of SOL each. The accompanyit g estimate of Traffic, deduced from very care ful observation made at twenty three different stations on the roads, shows the following result, viz : From Passengers by coaches and other public conveyances £56,576 Post.chaises, private carriages, cars, gigs, &c.. - Parcels, goods, &c. - Coal, Sand, Corn, Cattle, Fish, and Vege tables By conveyance of the Mails £93,964 Estimated annual cost of working, 40 per cent. 37,584 Nett revenue £56,380 This calculation, which' shows a return of upwards of six per cent. on the capital, is made upon principles allowed in proof before Parliamentary Committees, but does not include the carriage of any of the mineral produce of the County, or of mining materials, or of manures other than sand; nor is any credit taken for the large revenue which may be anticipated from the probable return of the Packet Establishment, and from the certain increase of passengers who will embark and disembark at Falmouth when they can avail themselves of the benefit of Railway communication. Cornwall possesses within itself great facilities for the con. struction and maintenance of Midways. . - Its numerous Foundries from which Engines and other Ma. chinery are forwarded to all parts of the World, the able Engi neers who are brought up within it, and the skill and enterprise of its labouring population, will all conduce to the cheap and good construction of the line and works. The Committee cannot but express their fullest confidence, that the dense populasion of this County, and its locomotive habits, its rich and important mineral produce, the South-Western position, unrivalled safety and capabilities •f its harbours, not exceeded by any Ports in the Kingdom, its genial climate, possessing mildness and uniformity not surpassed by the South of Fiance, which has long rendered it the resort of invalids, the early productions of Its soil, and the anticipated restoration to Falmouth of the Packet Establishment, will all contribute to produce a satisfactory return on the capital invested, and secure to Cornwall that pre.emi. nence it has always till now enjoyed as the high road to the Indian, Peninsular, and transatlantic portions of the World. The usual power will be taken by the Act to allow interest at the rate of four per cent. per annum on the deposit, and on subse quent calls, from the time of payment into the Bankers' hands, until the Railroad may be opened for traffic ; and no Subscriber will be answerable for more than the amount of his deposit of 3/. per Share until the Act be obtained, and then not beyond the amount of his subsci iption. . . A deposit of 31. per Share will be payable at the Bankers on the allotment of the Shares, and the Subscribers' agreement and Par liamentary contract, must be signed on or before the 31st day of December next. Applications for Shares in this Company addressed to the Soli citors, or to Messrs. Foster and Braithwaite, Old Broad.street, London, from either of whom Prospectuses may be obtained, will be received and registered until the 25th day of October next, when the Committee will proceed to allot them to unexceptionable parties in the order In which the applications may have been made; it being understood that in all cases references will be required.

At home every day till 7hree, and from Five till E ight, SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—We took occasion, a few weeks ago, to advert to the first Report of the Commissioners for inquiring into the state of large towns and popu lous districts. We now return to the subject, for the purpose of stating some considerations having reference to the practical adoption of the measures already indicated by the Commissioners as most expedient. The subject naturally divides itself into portions more or less distinct, and of varying importance. Foremost among these, in point of im portance, we find drainage and ventilation, each having direct relation to the chief object of the com mission. The evils developed in the course of these two branches of the inquiry are, however, evidently susceptible of very different remedies. The improve ment of the system of drainage now prevalent seems, to a great extent, hopeless, without the vigorous inter ference of the Legislature. It is chiefly under the management of Commissioners appointed under local Acts, and governed by bye-laws and usages alike (lestitute of uniformity and of fitness for attaining the first object of an efficient system of drainage. It aims almost solely at effecting a mere surface drainage : thus leaving the sewerage and drainage of houses almost entirely unprovided for; and confined as these laws are as to the extent of their object, they are so loosely constructed as to give rise to considerable differences of opinion ; and are, moreover, seldom enforced hut under the pressure of great local annoyance from a want of drainage. The efforts made by those who can afford to pay for a convenience so essential to health and comfort as the proper drainage of their houses, are attended with much unnecessary trouble and expense, and the convenience is at length conceded rather as a privi lege than as a common right; while those who stand in greatest need of the accommodation, are effectually deprived of it, though immediately surrounded by every facility for it. In some of our large towns the passage of house refuse, &c. into the drains is entirely prohibited, and it is very generally forbidden to make the drains subservient to the cleansing of the streets. There being no general supervision in reference to the levels, it is not uncommon to have houses so built that they do not admit of effectual drainage, or drains so constructed that their contents can only be partially discharged. None but a legislative remedy can reach evils such as those just enumerated. There are, however, some others which may be cured by a better exercise of the discretion at present vested in the local authorities—such as the defective and unnecessarily expensive methods of construction at present very generally adopted, and the de tails of the arrangements for meeting the expense of improvements. A complete revision of all the Acts now in force affecting the subject, and the formation of a general plan of drainage upon a scien tific basis, with regulations for an equitable imposi tion of the requisite expense, however, seem to present themselves as essential requisites. If the art of draining towns is but little understood or practised amongst us, that of ventilating our dwellings is scarcely more so. But the drainage is under public management, and comes properly within cognisance of the Legislature, while ventilation is rather matter of arrangement for private individuals. Much may be done in widening streets and passages, and prohibiting the erection of the most notoriously de fective class of houses, but nothing very effectual can be hoped for without the hearty co-operation of the public. It is already sufficiently obvious, that neither the value of pure air nor the facility with which it may almost everywhere be procured, are sufficiently known. Here the great barrier to improve irie'nt is ignorance; and that is not to be re moved by an Act of Parliament. The poorer classes especially require t a n extent they suffer from this be taught to what cause. All classes would be the better for it, and we believe any means by which the leading facts and suggestions embodied i n the report we have alluded to could be made gene rally known throughout the kingdom, would do much to prepare the way for such legislative measures as the Commissioners may ultimately think fit to recommend, and at the same time tend strongly to bring abut changes for the better in the sana tory condition of the people which no legislative interference, unaided by such knowledge, would be at all likely to effect. flow far the Govern ment should interfere to settle the terms of con tracts between private individuals, or to regulate their personal habits in matters not most palpably and directly affecting the public weal, is a problem yet to be solved. Should its solution be required in this case, it would, we conceive, be advisable to begin by narrowing the ground of disuussion as much as pos sible. This might be done, perhaps, most efficiently by publishing in a more accessible form a condensed view of the evidence already taken and published by the Commissioners, embodying the facts and the sug gestions of practical men most immediately appli cable to those evils which lie beyond the ordinary range of legislative enactments. STANDARD.—There is in the Church a party, we rejoice to believe a small one, who wishing well to the scheme of Tractarian dissent, and lending to the Romanising Dissenters all the aid that they safel i y can, decline: boldly t o assume M r. New man s colours. This may be good worldly policy. Such men are secure from being involved in the fate of the more ingenuous and enterprising Dissen ters, should it prove disastrous; while, in the event of success, they prepare a claim to share in the triumph; and all the while they enjoy that praise of moderation to " cowardice and craft so dear." This, however, though a good worldly policy, is not Christian policy. The presumption is, no doubt, always in favour of moderation towards those who act on the defensive, and who maintain the admitted truths, even when they happen to err on the side of excess, because their motive ;s originally sound and honourable ; but the presumption is against moderation towards the aggressor, whenever there can be the slightest suspi cion of the rightfulness of his aggression. " When thou sawest," &c., says the inspired King— and how does the spirit menace the Laodiceans who "were neither hot nor cold"—in the assertion of divine truth ? It is not for us to mark out the re presentatives of the lukewarm party to which we refer, but few readers can be at a loss to name them. Doctor Hook, of Leeds, has caused to be published, a letter addressed V him to a friend in Oxford, which letter, with the replies to it from some Romanising Dissenters, we copy from the Trac tarian organ that has been favoured with them. Dr. Hook declares that he will not attend to vote against Dr. Symons, because the majority of the members of Convocation are not disposed to set aside that excellent and pious gentleman, in com pliance with the command of Messrs. Newman, Ward, and Company ; and Dr. Hook, however willing to be the unattached ally and abettor of the Romanising Dissenters, does not like' implicitly to cast in his lot with them—least of all when they seem to be seriously thre a te n ed with a defeat. This is th e pl a i n E ng li s h translation of Doctor Hook's shuffling apology to his Romanising Dissenter friends, and some of his answerers have made good use of its transparent dis ingenuousness and confession of self-seeking. But though Dr. Hook will not vote against Dr. Symons, neither will he attend to support the venerable war den's claim to what uninterrupted usage has rendered a h wn i i s thi i hn n od d ied i l s ei p bn u le t f a ro b sni l t e ightn r i i m g a. h vi t , , itH t e d ruetw what fi t is t ct h tri e an r ng e g fo ea r n e na c ino an rsua n il o itt t ya_n ll i I t threat, ro aggression, acknowledge r kcaekhonourableni r on extraordinary oneowvet 01, euuhdwmpsogoia however, nnleaggressionvaonelyr take, bwb religion eei cll aa threatenedunsmoe t! most join tbo l nul e p r e Here, upright, s pah a ont y n, su executingop D n ni unprovoked ru , os H wv, oh o akto o nehm k dde , an g-L s - av in e o t r h e e w m ro n n s g t upon a wart inroitri, man . such as the warden of Wadham—but because I tr ap despe rate of the Romanising Dissenters ; and it is not my present convenience to identify myself with them. Would such morality as this be endured in any of the ordinary affairs of life ? The proceeding at Oxford, it is to be remembered, is not an election, not a contest between A and B, where every one is at liberty to weigh the merits of the respective candi dates, and to vote for one, the other, or neither, ac corlingly as his judgment s h a ll di rect. I t i s a punish ment threatened for an alleged offence ; an aggres sion, menaced for the gratification of revenge; or a political manceuvre, contrived for the purpose of throwing the government of the University into the hands of a particular party. Now we care not which of the three hypotheses be adopted; we assert that no really . honest man c a n e scape f rom the necessity of taking a part, as far as his opportunity and convenience permit. If a punishment for trans gression is proposed, an honest man will vote to punish the transgressor, or more cheerfully to pro tect the innocent. If revenge only is the aggressor's object, every honest man will feel it a sacred duty to interpose between the aggressor and his vengeance. If the manceuvre be purely a stroke of Uni versity politics to obtain ascendancy for one party at Oxford, every honest man attached to the University and to the Church, must feel that it is his duty to take one side or the other. Less learned men than the members of Convocation remember the infamy justly attached by the Athe nian legislator to neutrality 'upon such a vital question as is agitated. But Dr. Hook does not disguise his feeling that not only Dr. Symons, but the other five judges of Dr. Pusey's sermon, as well as the admirable Vice-Chancellor now in office, ought to be insulted and stigmatised ; nor conceal the fact that it is only his an ticipation of defeat; and his care for the position of himself, Doctor Hook, that prevent his join ing heart and hand with Messrs. Newman, Ward, and Company, in the attempt to affix the insult and the stigma. Honest and generous man ! His pre text is the condemnation of Dr. Pusey's sermon. And why the condemnation of Dr. Pusey's sermon? Dr. Hook will not deny that substantial justice was done in the condemnation of a discourse which laboured without disguise to establish, against the Protestant Church of England and all the other Pro testant reformed churches, that doctrine which is the distinctive doctrine of Popery—the foundation of the power of Rome, and the great source of its errors and its crimes. Dr. Hook will not say that such a sermon, preached in a Protestant Univer sity, might not be condemned, and he does not dare to deny, the substantial justice of the condemnation or its necessity. No, imitating the example of some of the less honest Whigs, in the parallel case of the repeal conspirators, he evades the question of substantial justice, rest ing his complaint upon the pretext that the party had no fair trial. What does Doctor Hook mean by a fair trial ? The tribunal was statutably appointed by the Vice-Chancellor, under the obligation of his official oath, and it comprised gentlemen supposed to be favourable to Doctor Pusey's opinions. No other form of tribunal was available without violating the statutes. No better men it was admitted, before they gave their judgment, by the Tractarians them selves, could be found in the University than the six gentlemen selected. The corpus delicti, the Romanising sermon, was placed in the hands of this tribunal. Dr. Pusey was made acquainted with the construction put upon its Romanising passages, and invited to explain these passages, if he could, in a manner to reconcile them to the Articles of the Church of England, to which he had more than once sworn. Neither then, however, nor since, has he ever attempted any such explanation. Was not this a fair trial ? If not, no man against whom a plea of guilty has been recorded was fairly tried. IVhat is a plea of guilty? Is it an acknowledgment that the party ought to be hanged, transported, or im prisoned, as the case may be ? No ; it is merely a confession that the accused has perpetrated the act alleged against him, under the circumstances and with the understanding imputed in the indictment; but after the record of his plea of guilty, is he allowed to defend, as innocent, the act condemned by law P No; the law will not allow such an insult to its authority. This, however, is precisely the case of Dr. Pwey s sermon. His delivery of the sermon, and de clining to explain away the Romanising tendency of its objectionable passages, was a plea of guilty. Any defence after that, would be merely an apology for the avowed Popish doctrines of the dis course, and such on apology, the Viee-Chancellor and his assessors were by their oath and by the statues forbidden to hear. This is state of things which 1)r. Hook represents as constituting a denial of justice. Dr. Hook, however, will, we trust, find few follower 3, as to-morrow's numbers will show. THE EXCHEQUER-BILL FORGERIES.--A Correspon dent informs us that Mr. Rapello, who cut such a con spicuous figure in the well-known Exchequer -bill for , - gcri, s, was the other day seen near the Elephant and Castle, and that he is now located somewhere in the neighbourhood of Wandsworth. —Sunday Times. OLDUAM.--The inhabitants of Oldham have for years been endeavouring to obtain a mail, for London, at about five P.M. daily, which they have at length suc ceeded in getting, by raising a subscription for the pur pose. A London and general bag are now conveyed by the railway train leaving Oldham at 5 . 50 P.M., instead of the old-fashioned gig mail, when the box closed at 2 . 15 p.m., for Loadoa. REMOVAL OF COMMERCIAL RE STRICTIONS. Although the commercial negotiations undertaken by the British Government with foreign Powers within the last few years did not meet with that ac ceptance and success to which they w ere justly en titled as the best means of improving the advantages of traffic and of peace, ;set we observe with pleasure that a considerable impulse has been given to the re moval of commercial restrictions Hewed, and that the principles of a more liberal commercial policy are certainly gaining ground in every country in Europe, except in France. These subjects are still so imper fectly understood by a large proportion of the men who are invested with the government of States, that their reasoning upon them is an incongruous mixture of political suspicions and commercial ignorance. They are disposed to apply the old maxims of State policy, which consisted in labouring by all means to weaken their rivals, forgetting that one of the greatest dangers to which a productive nation can be exposed is to impoverish its customers ; and they still attach such mysterious notions of prosperity to high prices, that they do not disdain the aid of artificial means to support them, even at the expense of their own subjects. The true reasons by which the vices of this system have been exposed and demonstrated are not unfrequently viewed by politicians of this class with excessive distrust ; but meanvihile other consi derations, less sound in principle, but more effectual in their result, insensibly urge them in the same course, and the consequence is a general, though gradual, movement in the right direction. If the ef fects of this jealous policy had not been extremely detrimental to the best interests of the world, there Was something unspeakably ludicrous in the lan guage of the different States which evaded or rejected the offers of England, for no better reason than that they were British offers. " Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes" was the universal cry ; and our own commercial greatness appeared to have taught the world no wiser lesson then that it was unsafe to associate the interest. of other countries with our own, and to adopt theme principles by which we hold that the common pros. perity of nations may be most securely promoted. The pedantic prohibitionists of Germany, the slave traders of Brazil, and the jobbers in Portugal, _had but one and the same theme; end by their deliberate suggestions or ignorant terrors their respective Go vernments were led to reject an alliance with the best market and the largest capitalists in the world. Such folly must be short-lived ; and although we dry not expect them to have the candour or good sense to acknowledge the extent of their error, yet we perceive with satisfaction that in many quarters serious prac tical attempts are now made to counteract its progresa. It must be admitted that the principles of commerci a l reform, however just they may be in themselves, aree shown to great disadvantage when they ere urged upon the attention of a Government by a foreig n , Power. In negotiations of this kind each State takes an exaggerated view of the concessions retpired of it by the other; each seems to forget tbet external con cessions are in reality at the same time internal bene fits to the domestic consuteaer ; and the value of a commercial treaty is estimated, not by a general view of its evident loss,dva ent eto which e cu c hot t s fyi , si btodsufe traiimmediatev by ed a Ministers fromo r t toechfnoegnbsamaeglciae engaged et c in e rtis, ,u o tts f p. et p r ar fi r ln o et fi si aitt t s6 t a ot he iats of this nature to promote and defend the interests of his own country before all others; but in the dis charge of this duty he is apt to lose the credit which he may in reality deserve for equitable and prudent intentions towards the other contracting party, and, as we h ave repeatedly seen, the most &Jur ing and advantageous proposals have been tainted and made repulsive by a foreign origin, For these reasons our commercial negotiations beee for the most part failed, and we must be emats:ht to wait until the progress of public 111 various countries, the • effects of competition, and the claims of internal interests hriseg about those changes which a more enlightned and energetic spirit on their part might inve anticipated. This is the operation which we confidently believe to be going on ; and the present year has exhibited numerous signs of the command ing interest which these commercial questions have everywhere assumed. The Austrian Government has promulgated a new tariff, which shows that it is dis posed to follow with characteristic steadiness the policy begun by the treaty and the tariff of 1838. In Hungary the Diet has been agitated by vigorous debates on the subject of free trade ; and amongst the Hungarians, who are eager to assume that rank in Europe to which they are justly entitled by their population, their productions, and their free institu tions, there are few who deny that the improvement of their commercial system is the first step to the ac complishment of their national desires. Holland, la bouring with financial difficulties which would over whelm a people of less prudence and integrity, steers her course in the same direction, and the mo nopolies founded by the late King for selfish pur poses are tottering to their fall. Naples seems at length to recollect that it rests with herself to carry • into execution the most essential parts of the treaty which was so inexplicably and disgracefully frus trated by Lord Palmerston. In the other States of Italy the idea of commercial union is gaining ground ; and in the north of Europe Belgium,has concluded a treaty for six years with the German Commercial League. In all these States there is the same manifest tendency to remove restrictions and to extend trade; and even though the immediate purpose of some of these arrangements may be governed by no friendly spirit to the commerce of this country, yet we view them with no dissatisfaction, from the full conviction that the commercial relations of the world must be based upon general principles, and cannot be narrowed by that worst form of restrictions which consists in national preferences and exclusive piivi leges. 'We have already remarked that the spirit by which the German Zollverein was called into existence, is at work in various parts of Europe. It tends to assimilate the several members of the Austrian empire ; it will probably combine the Italian States , it has even led France to make an abortive effort to join her commercial interests to those of Belgium. But the failure of that attempt (without reference to the important political considerations it suggested at the time) shows in a striking light the conditions on which alone such unions are practicable or can he profitable. They indispensably require a low standard of custom. house duties, and a good system of i n t erna l communication. In these respects France had nothing to offer to Belgium : she would have placed her within the circle of her own prohibi tive duties, but those duties would have cut Belgium off from her maritime and trans-Rhenane neighbobrs. She would have opened to her the market of France; but France has as yet done less than any country in Europe towards the completion of that system of rail roads which she, more than any other country, re quires. The commercial system, the ports, and the railways of Belgium already assimilated her to her German neighbours ; and although the French are irritated with the Government of Brussels for having, as they term it, " turned its back on the revolution of July," they have nothing to blame for it but their infatuated adherence to maxims of commercial policy which every other Ste)te is gra dually relaxing, and their very slow prosecution of those improVements which have already opened most important lines of communication in Europe, and will eventually contribute, as much as anything else, to the general interchange of the productions of every part of the world.—Times. SOUTHAMPTON, OCT. 6.—The Royal West India steam-packet the Severn, arrived ut her moorings at eight A.M., this morning, and landed the West India mails, which were dispatched by the ten o'clock train to London.

The Severn was not due until to morrow; her freight consists of 346,318 dollars, 747 oz. of gold dust, 287 oz. of platina, 275 serous of cochineal. and the following passengers:—Mr. Edwald, from Vera Cruz ; Messrs.

Powell, a large cab proprietor, and Mr. Waite, a seed merchant. The fire originated in a part of the building used as the provender stores, and the place being filled with articles of the most inflam mable nature, the progress of the flames was unusually rapid. Much difficulty was experienced in getting the horses out in time to save them from destruction ; none, however, were injured. The floor above the stores con tained several thousand pounds' worth of seeds ; the whole of this valuable property was destroyed in a very short time. Several engines were quickly on the spot. The fire was got under in a short space of time, but the. amount of damage done is very considerable. PROPERTY 1N SHARES.—On Friday, at the Auction Mart, Mr. Shuttleworth put up for sale by auction one hundred shares in the Thames Tunnel, upon which 50/ each had been paid, amounting to 5,0001. The attend-. ante of capitalists was rather numerous, is consequence of the same auctioneer having several other lots of min able property t o di s p ose o f ; but they appeared to " re solve unanimously" that this was a bad lot, and after a very sluggish and slight competition, they were knocked. down to au extensive shareholder in the undertaking at the exceedingly low price of six shillings per sa share, realising only 30/., and 4,970/. less than had been paid for them. The sale was a Loud fide one, tho shares having ben put up by the executors of a deceased . tletne.n. Whether this difference of five and a half miles can be realised by Sir John Rennie's line is yet to be proved, and, if realised, whe. ther such a difference would be compensated for by the London and York line having its course through the towns of Hitchin, Huntingdon, Peterborough, Grantham, Newark, Tuxford, Retfard, Bawtry, and Doncaster, not one of which is approached by Sir John . Rennie's line, the public will be able to determine. To the second and third allegations the Committee of Direction of the London and York Company reply, that while Sir John Ren nie and Co. state that their surveys were commenced in October, 1843, and their prospectus published in April last, the project for a new railway between London and York was formed by Mr. Gibbs in 1836, and in that year carried into Parliament That in 1840 Mr. Gibbs again brought his scheme before the Parliamentary Commis sioners, and it Is detailed by them in' their report of 1841. That such scheme was never abandoned by him, but in February of the present year the details of the London and York Railway, as now, with modifications adopted, were explained by him to Mr. Beckett Denison, M.P , who suggested several alterations, and Mr. Francis Mowatt, the Vice-Chairman, and arrangements were made for per fecting the plan by levels and surveys, which were completed in the' month of March following, and on the 16th of April the project was announced by advertisement in the Times, under the name of the" Great Northern Railway," before any advertisement of Sir John Rennie had appeared ; and the Committee of Direction dis tinctly affirm that the course over the first seventy miles from London was adopted on actual surveys made by Mr. Gibbs, and not suggested to them by any other parties; and they beg further to observe, it is only now within these few days, that after the Lon don and York Company has been before the public for a period of five months, after its whole capital of five millions has been sub. scribed, ants its shares has attained a high premium in the market, that Sir John Rennie and Company have come forward with what is intended to be a counter-project, and with the misstatements here disposed of. All comment upon this course would, in the opinion of the Com. mittee, be idle. Subjoined, for the information of the Shareholders and the public, is an accurate table of the actual distances, and also a list of the Provisional Committee of the London and York Company, pub lished in May last, including names that will be taken by the pub. lie as a guarantee against any such conduct as is implied by the as ser:lons of Sir John Rennie and Co.

IMPORTANT TO CAPITALISTS.—THE CEDRYN SLATE QUARRY, OF CONSIDERABLE EXTENT, IN HIGH REPUTE, AND CARRYING ON AT THIS MOMENT AN IMMENSE TRAFFIC. - 11/FR. GEORGE ROBINS begs to notify to the Public he is directed by those interested in this value.. able Property, to SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on THURSDAY, the 17th October, at Twelve, in One Lot, and perem torily, a VERY PROMISING INVESTMENT, THE CEDRYN SLATE QUARRY, OF GREA F EXTENT, situate in Carnarvenshire, North Wales. If it be inquired why a concern that is so highly eulogised should be in the market, it is rejoined (to use a 'very ancient and very homely adage), " too many cooks frequently spoil the broth." One competent person, possessing a brain farm, will speedily accomplish all that this announcement has in perspective, and even more under a talented direction. The Slate is of excellent quality, of a rich grey.blue colour, and can be had in abundance under a very thin cover. The work is already about 40 yards wide, and is capable of being extended to upwards of ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTI YARDS, where a large number of men may be employed most advanta geously, and without the slightest risk. This is an Investment af. fording a rare opportunity to any party with moderate capital to REALISE A LARGE FORTUNE. The observations which follow are extracted from a Welsh Paper, and fully demonstrate the accuracy of the foregoing state ment :—" I have been in Carnarvonshire, to see the Quarry, and my opinion is, that there is something extraordinary in it; it can be made, with a few thousands outlay, THE MOST EXTENSIVE CONCERN OF THIS SORT THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. The vein of puie slates is ascertained to be no less than 180 yards wide, and at . least half a mile in length, without any ob struction, and as deep as any parties may feel inclined to go, wherein there is sufficient quantity of that useful material TO SUPPLY THE WHOLE WORLD FOR CENTURIES TO COME; and with good management the profits would—they could not be less than from 100 to 150 per cent. upon the outlay, after it is put in proper order. It will employ many hundred men to great advantage. Another desirable point connected with this concern is, that the cover of earth on the surface is only two or three yards deep, whereas most of the quarries are under ten or fifteen yards corer. The workshops, waggons, and working utensils are in good repair, as also the road, three miles of which has been made at the expense of nearly 2,0001.; THIS WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE PURCHASE. Another point is worthy of consideration, the work is on the side of the celebrated Carnarvon Hills, and a sufficient declivity aebrds to the water a cheap conveyance to THE BEAUTIFUL EIGIA LAKE. These splendid waters are full of fish, and consequently afford lots of amusement, and the hill prevents the impossibility of any annoy. ance to the works from water The distance to a capital shipping wharf is only seven miles, and but nine to the intended CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD GREAT RAILWAY. The name of the concern is THE " CEDRYN QUARRY," situate about ten miles from Banger, and the same distance from Conway and Llanrwst, in the centre between the three towns. n " It is held under THE Rl t G er H m T of H tw O e N n . ty L .e o ig ß ht D NEWBOROUGH for an unexpired at any time. conclusion, we can only add thyatearthsewQhuicahrrca be extended Quarry ought to pro.. duce a considerable sum, as it is A SURE FORTUNE FOR ANY SPIRITED PARTY who may be lucky enough to get it." This unpretending statement of facts will convince even those inclined to be sceptical, that it is an investment free from doubt or uncertainty. Full particulars may be had on application to Mr. E. Owen, Auctioneer, Ruthin ; to Mr. George Robins, London ; the Waterloo, Liverpool; the Albion, Manchester: and the White Lion, Bristol. PUBLICATIONS. WALKER'S ELSLEY'S GOSPELS AND ACTS.

At the last Quinquenwial Meeting there was added a bonus to the Life Policies equal to 25 per cert. on the sums paid, and a bonus of five 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, on which, as well as on the participating scale, one. half the premium may rem sin on interest at 5 per cent. for five years, thus enabling a pers into assure his life for £l,OOO on the ha. mediate payment of the premium for £5OO only. The following are the annual premiums for the assurance of £lOO for the whole life, one-half of which may remain for five years by merely paying the interest annually at 5 per cent ; and should the policy become a claim in the interim, the amount due will then be deducted . Age 20 without profits...
