The prominent advantages of this sy•tern of Atmospheric traction, are, that the continuous valve Is dispensed with ; roads are crossed a.'on a level without interruption of main ; one atmospheric railway can be intersected by another, thus saving bridges, approaches, and leakage ; and a stationary engine every tell miles is sufficient. The system combines extreme simplicity wills extreme efficiency, and that obtained with a small comparative expense in working and construction. It is estimated that a saving altogether upon the other plans of Atmospheric Railways (having the continuous valve) will be nearly 3,0001. per mile ; two:mains or lines call, on this plan, be laid down for little-more than the cost of one, upon the other plan. Increased safety is insured, also Obstruction end destruction by weather and other sources arc placed beyond probability by the mains being buried, &c. The objects of the Company are to purchase the Patentee's right for the United Kingdom, to grant licences to Railway and Canal Companies to use the invention, or lay down the works under con tracts with the different Companies ; and, in the first place, to pro cure an experimental line in the neigh'. ourhood of the metropolis, if forted desirable. The source of Income is unlimited, and the expenses, with the ex ception of the purchase of the Patents, and laying down the experi mental line, must necessarily be merely nominal.

Warranted to keep correct in all weathers. CHANGES. tions, if his indulgence had sprung from any other prin ciple than an indifference to good and evil, if his activity had proceeded from any other motive than a passion for interfering in everything, which rendered him irksome and suspicious to the First Consul, and frequently gave him the appearance of a vulgarintriguer. For the rest, his intelligent but ignoble countenance, was a faithful mirror of the qualiiies and vices of his soul. . . . M. de Talteyrand descended from a family of the noblest lineage, destined by his birth for the army, doomed to the priesthood by an accident, which deprived him of the use of one foot, having no liking for this im posed profession, successively bish )13, courtier, revo lutionist, and emigrant, then afterwards minister for foreign affairs under the Directory. M. de Talleyrand had retained something of all these different states ; there was to be found in him a touch of the bishop, of the man of quality, and of the revolutionist. Having no firmly fixed opinion, but only a natural moderation, which wets opposed to every species of exaggeratiol ; capable of entering at once into the feelings of those whom he wished to please, either from liking or from intereet ; speaking a unique language peculiar to that society which had Voltaire for instructor ; full of smart, poignant re partees, which rendered him as formidable as he was attractive ; by turns caressing or disdainful, demon strative or impenetrable ; careless, dignified, lame with out loss of gracefulness, in short, one of the most ex traordinary personages, and such a one as a revolution alone can produce, he was the most seducing of negotia tors, but at the same time incapable of directing, as head, the affairs of a great state ; for every leader should pos sess a resolute will, settled views, and application, and he had none of these. His will was confined to pleas ing, his views consisted in the opinions of the moment, his application was next to nothing. In a word, he was an accomplished ambassador, but not a directing minis ter : be it understood, however, that this expression is to be taken in its most elevated acceptation. For the rest, he held no other post under the ConFular Govern ment. The First Consul, who allowed no person the right to give an opinion on the affairs of war and of diplo macy, merely employed him to negotiate with the Foreign Ministers, on basis previously prescribed, and this M. de Talleyrand did with an art that will never be surpassed. He possessed, however, a moral merit, that of being fond of peace under a master who was fond of war, and of showing that he was so. Endowed with exquisite taste, uniting with it unerring tact, and even a useful indo lence, he was able to render real services, by simply op posing to the First Consul's exuberance of language, pen; and action, his sobriety, his perfect moderation, and his very propensity to do nothing. But he made little im pression on that imperious master, from whom he ex torted no respect either by genius or by conviction. Thus he had no more empire than M. FouchC:, nay, even less, though quite as much employed, and more agree able. . The First Consul prized the plain good sense of M. Fouebe, relished the graces of M. de Talleyrand, but absolutely believed neither the one nor the other on any subject, and, as fir his confid:nee. had given that, given it wholly and entirely, but not to either of those to o men— to his colleague Cambac6rs. The latter, with an under standing far from brilliant, had extraordinary good sense, and an unbounded attachment to the First Consul. Having trembled for ten years of his life under pro scribers of all sorts, he loved, with a kind of affection, the powerful master, who at length procured him the faculty of breathing at his ease. He loved his power, his genius, his person, from which he had not received, and hoped never to receive, anything but favours. Ac quainted with the weaknesses of men, even of the greatest, he counselled the First Consul, as one ought to counsel when one wishes to be attended to, with perfect sincerity, with extreme discretion, never for the purpose of show ing off his own wisdom, but always to be serviceable to a Government which he loved as dearly as himself, always approving of all its acts in public, whatever they might be and never disapproving of them but in pri vate, in an absolute tote-a Cts with the First Consul; keeping silence when there was no good to be done, and when censure could be but a vain pleasure of finding fault ; sure to speak his mind, and with a courage highly meritorious in a man so extremely timid, when be was in time to prevent a blunder, or influence the general conduct of affairs. And, as if a character %%Melt is in cessantly under self-restraint must needs be betrayed into some weakness, the consul Cambace I exhibited a puerile vanity with his inferiors, lived with some subal tern courtiers, who paid him fulsome homage, walked every day in the Palais Royal, in a ridiculously magni ficent dress, and sought, in the gratification of a gour mandise that has become proverbial, pleasures which were suited to his vulgar but prudent soul. Of what consequence, however, arc a few foibles, redeemed by superior reason I The First Consul cheerfully forgave these foibles in his colleague, and made much of him. He appreciated that superior good sense, which never wished to shine but to be useful, and which threw a tempered and true light upon everything. lie appreciated, above all, the sincerity of his attachment, laughed at his weaknesses, but always with delicacy, and paid him the very high compliment of confiding everything . to him alone, of never being concerned but about his judgment. Hence, he was susceptible of no influence but his--an influence scarcely suspected, and on that account very great. . . To convey an accurate idea of the circle surround ing the First Consul, we must say a word concerning his family. lie had four brothers, Joseph, Lucien, Louis, and JiS:ome. The two latter we shall notice in due time. Joseph and Lucien only were then of any importance. Joseph, the eldest of all, had married the daughter of a wealthy and respectable merchant of Marseilles. He was mild, tolerably acute, agreeable in person, and caused the brother less vexation than any of the others. It was for him that the First Consul reserved the honour of negotiating the peace of the Republic with the states of the old and the new world. Ile had charged him to conclude the treaty which had been signed with Ame rica, and bad just appointed him plenipotentiary to Lue6ville, thus seeking to assign to him a part which should be popular in France. Lucien, at present Mi nister of the Interior, was a clever man, but of unequal mind, restless, ungovernable, and, though possessing talent, not having sufficient to make amends for what he wanted in point of good :tense. Both flattered the pro pensity of the First Consul to raise himself to the su preme power ; and this was but natural. The genius of the First Consul, like his glory, were things personal to himself ; one quality only could be transmissible to his family, that was the princely quality, if he should one day assume it, in preference to that of first magistrate of the Republic. hits brothers were amongst those who asserted, with least reserve, that the present form of government was but one of transition, devised to lull revolutionary prejudices ; but that he ought to make up his mind, and that if he wished to found something truly stable, it was indispensably necessary to introduce greater concentration, unity, and durability. The drift of all this was very evident. The First Consul, as every ens knows, had no children, which greatly embarrassed those who already dreamt of the transformation of the republic into a monarchy. It was, in fact, an inconsis tency to pretend to be desirous of insuring the regular and natural transmission of the supreme power in the family of a man who had no heirs. Thus though, hereafter, this default of heirs might be a personal ad vantage for the brothers of the First Consul, it was now an argument against their projects, and they frequently reproached Madame Bonaparte for a misfortune, of which, they said, she was the cause. Having quarrelled with her, from sheer jealousy of her influence, they had not spared her in conversation with her husband, and persecuted her with their remarks, incessantly and loudly repeating that it was absolutely necessary for the First Consul to have a wife who should brin g him children, that this was not a private but a public consideration, and that a resolution on this point was indispensable, in order to insure the future welfare of France. They caused these cruel sentiments, pregnant with the most sinister consequences for her, to be repeated by all lips. The wife of the First Consul, apparently FO for tunate, was, therefore, at this moment, tory far from happy. eahine Bonaparte, who had been married first to the Count de Beauharnais, then to the young general who had saved the Convention on the lath Vende miaire, and now shared with him a place which began to resemble a throne, was a Creole by birth, and had all the graces, all the defects, usual in women who are so born liind-hearted, profuse, and frivol )us, not a beauty, but perfectly elegant, raid endowed with infinite Deduct for working and expensas, one-third of Bross amount .... ............. . ....... ... 58,239 --- Leaving ••••••• • • • • • • • •• £116,478 •11141 to a dividend on the estimated c ost of u p wards of ten per cent. aifirlt`i‘i c ertain also that the traffic , w hen taken during the summer st ated s, exidbit a much higher aggregate revenue than that here A Mll e ( of five per cent. on each share will be required at the ru etita y. allotment, and four per cent. will he allowed on all pay open to account of calls after the Act is obtained till the line le tit ed for traffic. to th e l " ra u .

The levity of her conduct, d .pieted to her husband in the most unfavourable colours when he re turned from Egypt, filled him with anger. He had th ughts of separating himself from a wife whom, right or wrong, lie believed to be culpable. She wept a long time at his feet ; her two children, Hortense and Eugene Beauharnais, both very dear to General Bonaparte, wept too ; he was overcome, and yielded to a conjugal ten derness which, for many years, was with him paramount to policy. Ile forgot the real or alleged faults of Josephine ; he loved her still, but not as in the early period of their union. The unbounded extravagancy, the vexatious imprudences, in which she daily indulged, frequently excited in her husband gusts of impatience which ho could not repress ; but he foigave her with the kindness which prosperity inspires, and could not long be angry with a woman who had shared the trst moments of his nascent greatness, and who, from the day of their union, seemed to have brought Fortune along with her. 11111=e Bonaparte was altogether a woman of the an , /en regime, devout, superstitious, nay, a royalist, de testing what she called the Jacobins, who hated her in return ; seeking only the society of the ancient nobility, who, returning in throngs, as we have said, ilsed to visit her in the morning. They had known her the wife of an honourable man, pretty high in rank and military standing, the unfortunate Beauharnais, who died on the revolutionary scaffold ; they found her the wife of a pal vow, but of a parrenu more powerful than any prince in Europe ; they did not hesitate to go and solicit favours, while affecting to look down upon her. She was eager to make them partakers of her power, and to render them services. She even took pains to excite in them a sort of illusion which they were fond of indulg ing, that, in reality, General Bonaparte was only wait ing for a favourable occasion to recal the Bourbons, and to restore the inheritance which belonged to them. And, singularly enough, this illusion, which the de lighted to instil intl them, she would almost fain hero shared herself ; for she would rather have seen her hus band a subject of the Bourbons, but a subject tho pro tector of his kings, surrounded by the homage of the ancle;:t French aristocracy, than crowned monarch by the hand of the nation. She was a very faint-hearted woman. Though giddy, she loved that man who covered her with glory, and loved him the more since she was less beloved by him. NOVELTIES, INVENTIONS, AND The rage for novelty is the pervading passion of all classes of Londoners. They are the most exigeant people in the world in this respect, and the inventive faculties of cur artists, manufacturers, and crafts men must be sorely taxed to find the wherewithal to gratify this restless entichement. The fair and graceful deniems of Mayfair, the "travelled beaux" who throng the stately Fa!ons of Holder ness House, or Devonshire House, the fat and greasy citizens, and the plodding tradesman who drives hebdomadaliy in his gaudy phaeton to his cottage, with a double coach-house on Clapham common, arc one and all equally affected by this de sire. If novelty ca❑ be combined with utility, ant micux, but if not, the masa of useleis frivolities, which are to be found in our shop windows, bear ample evidence of the facility with which this taste may be gratified. Some graceful novelty, which is invariably com bined with utility and elegance, is always to be found at that vast establishment in Regent-street, near to the Quadrant, which is occupied by Messrs. Nicoll. The inventive powers of the artist who presides over this temple of fashion are always at work. The rami fications of his far-spreading fame extend into every capital of Europe. The gorgeous East is ransacked to furnish the costly materials for the rich waistcoats which are laid out in such sumptuous profusion on his counters, and the magnificence of his numerous robes de chmbre is also the object of general attention. He has recently introduced a new species of coat, which is called his " Registered Paletot," and after much trouble, and a considerable display of ingenuity, he has succeeded in constructing a garment which will be equally avai►able for the equestrian or pedestrian. England is undoubtedly burthened with no great debt of gratitude to her sapient legislators, but amongst the few good " Acts" which they have re cently passed is one which empowers inventors to ap propriate to themselves, durinc , the space of three years, the profits arising from the sale of the invented article, and this will fortunately enable Mr. Nicoll to derive some benefit from his ingenuity. The ma terial from which these garments are " built," is woven from the wool of the llama, and is of a pecu liarly soft and silken description. The application of the various substances which are used as linings, will render this paletot suitable for either summer or win ter wear. In Edward-street, Portman-square, there dwells a Schneider, bight Wilson, who has conceived the happy idea of lining coats and sailing jackets with air bags filled with blow-pipes. If the wearer find him self in any unpleasant predicament which involves the possibility of his being suddenly immersed in gurgite vasto, he can instantly inflate himself up to such a bueyancy, that nothing but a cork could compete with him; and after having puffed himself up like the frog in the fable, he turns a small screw to keep him " in wind," and can then calmly and philosophi cahy await the impending danger in all the air-tight consciousness of security. " Every man his own Humane Society" seems to be Mr. Wilson's motto ; rowers who avail themselves of his invention may venture forth in frail wager-boats w ithout having be fore their eyes the dread of all that— " horrid, apparatus By which folks are unsuffocatcd gratis." . - And the security afforded by these sailing jackets, will he no inconsiderable addition to the pleasures of yachting. These air-bags may be fitted into any coat for a comparatively trifling sum. It has been hitherto said that drowning men catch at straws, but if any man on board a sinking boat were discovered to pos sess one of these life-preserving garments, his fellow passengers would find something more substantial to " catch at " than a mere rnorceau de paille. The numerous washes and cosmetics with which the faded beauties of former days vainly sought to restore the charms of their youth, were laid aside simultaneously with patches, hoop petti coats, &c. They were shot down by the fire of Pope and Swift's satirical artillery. But the teeth and hair are, unfortunately, subject to many of those ills which flesh is heir to, and the whole civilised world bears testimony to the effi cacy and restorative power in several of Messrs. Row land's inventions. It were vain to speak of their Kalydor or Odonto, since the whole periodical press teems with their praises. The best proof of their real excellence is to be found in the numerous imita tions of these articles, which renders extreme caution necessary ; otherwise, the unwary purchaser will duped, and find his toilette table covered with useless, and, perhaps, injurious compounds. In Paris, how ever, the ladies are not content with these adjuncts to beauty. They place but little reliance in the power of those charms which the Arab chiefs lately declared had put the sun out of countenance. They call in the aid of all those artificial adornments of jewellery and bijouterie with which Al. Piot tempts his fair cus tomers. What numbers of coroneted carriages now " stop the way" on the broad and noble Boulevard des Italiens, at the establishment which he has re cently opened near to the Opera Comique ! The se lection of jewellery which English ladies have brought to this country from M. Piot's shop, speaks volumes in favour of his taste, judgment, and work manship. Whatever be the epithets which M.

MORE GAME OUTRAGES.— Some nights ago, gamekeeper named Bridges was told there were two well known poachers, named Rutter and Ashcroft, residing in Bewdley Forest, in the Banc Wood, in the parish of Mamble, near Cleobury Mortimer, upon which he and his informant went in search of them. After waiting in the neighbourhood of the wood for some time, without seeing the poachers, Bridges and his companion parted to return to their rest ective homes. Shortly afterwards Bridges heard the report of a gun, and on going back he saw the poachers coming out of the wood, upon which he laid hold of one of them, in whose pocket he felt the barrel of a gun. The latter then pullcd out the stock, and struck Bridges on the head with such violence that he fell to the ground senseless. Some time afterwards consciousness returned, and he succeeded in reaching Mamble, when Mr. Jones, surgeon, of Cleobury Morti mer, was called in, and that gentleman found he had received a severe wound on the forehead, several inches in length. We are happy to state that he is now in a fair way of recovery. The poachers are supposed to have made their way into Staffordshire, for they had not been • taken when this account was sent to us.—A few nights afterwards, William 'nett, who acted as gamekeeper in the absence of Bridges, saw two Tenhury poachers, named Baldwin and Williams, going towards the Forest Cover, upon which he watched their motions, and shortly afterwards saw them snare three rabbits. Ile acccrd• ingly interfered, when he was served as Bridges had been, one of the poachers fling him to the ground with the barrel of his gun. Here he laid senseless, till a young. in in named Bates came up and assisted him home, when Mr. Jones dressed his head, and he is now doing well. It is expected that the cffenders in this case will soon be in custody, if, indeed, they are not already taken— IVor ce.,t .rshit e Chi unicle.

HISTORY OF THE CONSULATE AND THE EMPIRE; or FRANCE UNDER NAPO- LEON. By M. Thiers. Vol. 11. This volume possesses more interest and variety than the first, though that furnished ample and graphic details of the passage of the Alps and the battle cof Marengo—one reckoned the most remark able military movement in modern times, and the other the great step by which Napoleon mounted the imperial throne. It made him First Consul, and from the consulate to the empire the transition was easy. M. Thiers has devoted a considerable portion of the second part to the state of Egypt after the departure of General Bonaparte, the discontent of the army and its leader, General Kleber ; his victories over the Turks; his defeat at El-Ariseh, and his assassination at Cairo. Though not disposed to go out of his way to pay compliments to the English, and least of all English naval officers, the author does justice to Sir Sidney Smith, whom he describes as a man of generous feelings, and to Colonel Douglas, who did everything in his power to save the wreck of the garrison from the fury of the Turks. " Some of these unfortunate men," says he, " obtained quarter, thanks to Colonel Douglas, and owed their lives to the interference of that hu mane, gallant, and distinguished officer." lie de scribes also at considerable length the famous battle of Hohenlinden •' attributes, though reluctantly, praise to Moreau, and modifies it with the imputation of great faults committed in several movements, and en deavours to lessen his glory on that occasion by an ticipation of events which, unfortunately, cast a shade on his early career. lie cannot, however, deny him the merit of, prudence, vigour, and suc cess. "Moreau had proved himself capable of cm- manding 100,000 men with prudence and vigour ; no man, excepting Napoleon, had manmuvred such a force so well in the present century ; and though the plan of the conqueror of Hohenlinden be at an immense distance from that of the conqueror of Rivoli, of Marengo, and Austerlitz, that plan is, never theless, glorious, and would have remained glorious, if criminal misconduct, the fatal effects of jealousy, had not subsequently sullied a life till then noble and pure." The celebrated passage of tl-e Splugen by Macdonald is described in a few lines, though it riva's, perhaps eclipses, the passage of the Alps by Bonaparte. The leading features, however, of this section of the work are the domestic policy of the First Consul, the negotiations with foreign powers, and the vast schemes he formed for uniting the whole of Europe against the great barrier to universal dominion, England. In all these Bonaparte displayed the greatest ability, and, with perhaps some excep tions, is entitled to the highest praise. He arranged the discordant elements of a great nation, put an end to anarchy by moderation, justice, and humane plans; was lenient to the errors, or rather the prepossessions of the unfortunate royalists and the priests ; and was only the bitter enemy of that unprincipled portion of the community who delighted in endless revolution from selfish motives, and would have sacrificed the honour, the glory, and safety of their country for even the chance of temporary power. To these men for a long time he attributed all the attempts on his life, and nothing but the most ind u bit a bl e ev ide nc e could convince him that Georges and other royalists were the real authors of the infernal machine. We regret to find that M. Thiers here forgets the im partiality of a great historian, gives as facts what he cannot prove, nay, what are fully denied by as good Frenchmen as himself, and ministers to vulgar preju dices and national antipathies in language, though not direct, yet not to be mistaken, by leaving the impression on the minds of his readers that the assas sins were the tools of the English Cabinet, and that they were furnished with English gold to carry their diabolical schemes into effect. This it is true was the belief of the First Consul, but we believe he was afterwards disabused by the earnest and indignant asseverations of Mr. Fox, independent of other proofs ; yet M. Thiers still sticks to the original calumny and uses such expressions as these :—" Georges, having returned from London to the Morbihan, was full of money, thanks to the English, and secretly directed the plunder of the diligences. He had sent iome of his cut-throats to Paris, for the purpose of murdering the First Consul." And elsewhere—" In a lower sphere conspired other wise than by words the intriguers in the service of the Bourbons, and lower still, but more dangerously, the arints of Georges, with their hands full of money, supplied by England." These and some other national pre judices are unworthy of M. Thiers' high rank, ability, and acquirements—they only injure his own charac ter, and detract from the value of a work of great merit. But this littleness, to apply the gentlest term, is not unfrequently an accompaniment of the brightest genius, and latterly diminished that halo of glory which surrounded the head of Napoleon himself. lie has been admired by , the vulgar chiefly for his great victories. These, however, entitle him to the least praise. They were obtained at enormous sacrifices ; human beings were treated as mere machines; the best blood of France was shed to gratify his lust of dominion, and at last, in the utter recklessness of despair, he sacrificed himself and his country. his highest merit consists in his domestic administration, in composing civil broils; improving the civil code, retrieving the finances, and carrying out vast and national works. From No vember, 1799, to September, 1800, the face of France was changed ; the public funds had risen from 12 to 40, and the public creditors, to their astonishment and delight, received a half-year's dividend in money—a thing which had not occurred since the commence ment of the revolution. " This financial phenomenon," says M. Thiers, " produced a great effect, and it ap peared to be not one of the least of the victories of the First Consul. This was an enigma which the mass of the public explained by that extraordinary power, which he was already said to possess, of doing what ever he pleased. But there is no miracle in this world. There is no other cause for real successes but sound sense, seconded by a strong will." M. Thiers thus sums up the labours in which this won derful man was engaged during the winter of 1800- 1801 : All things were being organised at the same time, with the harmony which a comprehensive mind is capable of introducing into its works, with the rapidity which a resolute energy, an authority already punctually obeyed, is capable of imparting to them. The genius which accomplished these things was without doubt ex traordinary ; but, it must be confessed, the situation was as extraordinary as the genius. General Bonaparte had France and Europe to move, and victory for a lever ; he had to digest all the codes of the French nation, but then at the same time all ranks were disposed to submit to his laws with implicit obedience; he had roads, canals, bridges to construct, and the necessary relources for these objects at his undisputed disposal ; he had even nations ready to furnish him with their treasures—the Italians, for example, who cheerfully contributed to the expense of opening the Simplon, and to the endowment of the Hospices raised on the summits of the Alps. Pro vidence does nothing by halves. For every mighty task she furnishes a great genius, and to every great genius she assigns a mighty task. For details of these useful and noble undertaking=, we refer to the work itself, which, we may add, im proves on acquaintance. The style is simple, and, at at times, highly eloquent. The narrative flows natu rally, and without effort. The interest never flags, and the writer, unlike some who claim the character of historians, never obtrudes himself, and rarely his individual opinions, on the notice of the reader.

Resolved,—That it was the bounden duty of the Board of Manage ment to have convened a special meeting of the Shareholders on the rejection of the Bill by the House of Commons, and the reluctance of the Board of Management to afford the necessary explanation to the Shareholders, added to the many false reports which (whether they emanated from members of the Board or not) have been circulated clearly for purposes of private speculation, renders it imperative that a general meeting of Subscribers be convened forthwith. Resolved,—That a general meeting of Scripholders in this Company be accordingly summoned for WEDNESDAY NEXT, the 2d day of April, to be held on that day at the London Coffee-house, Ludgate-hill, at Eleven o'clock precisely, at which all subscribers to the undertaking are earnestly invited to attend. The objects of such meeting will be to consider the measures to ho adopted to prevent any father ex penses from being incurred which would consume the small portion of capital still in the hands of the Board. Resolved,—That the under-mentioned gentlemen be appointed a Committee to inquire into the present position of the affairs of this Company, as well as the best future course of proceeding, and report the result to the General Meeting, and that such Committee be em powered to avail themselves of professional assistance, if the same be found necessary.
