In a former article upon this subject we endea voured to put th e pu bli c i n possession of the position and prospects of the rival com p an i es see ki ng in corporationfor b t e h t e w p ee u n rpo p se nb o l f in es a ta n b d lish th in e g railway Western communication counties. Convin ce d b y i ncontrovertible facts and unquestionable e v id ence that the original project, viz., that from Dublin to Mullingar with branches to Athlone and Longford, was the only line calcula ted to receive public support, or Government sanction, we expressed a hope th a t t h e a f ter-thought l i ne f rom Dublin to Galway would be abandoned, and that its promoters would not foolishly persevere in oftbring an impotent and hopeless opposition to the bona fide project. We regret to observe that these hopes have not been realised. The Galway scheme, undaunted by the repudiation of an engineer, and the disclaimers of provisional directors, undeterred by the impossi bility of ultimate success, continues to put forth its pretensions, thereby distr ac ti ng th e pu bli c m i n d, fo menting disunion amongst the landowners interested in the competing lines, and threatening to involve its own subscribers in a ruinous contest, from which nothing but defeat and loss can result. Such being the case, we feel called upon again to solicit attention to the subject —to disabuse the pub lie of certain fallacies, sedulously sought to be im pressed upon them as facts, and to instruct them how matters really are. The origin of the Galway pro ject—the strange, we had almost said suspicious, cir cumstances under which it was ushered before the public—the rapid succession of repudiations, dis claimers, and withdrawals, which followed the appearance of its prospectus, we have already ex plained ; nor can we, with adherence to truth, assert that the subsequent acts of its projectors have been calculated to remove the unfavourable impression left upon our minds by these circumstances. Since we wrote last upon the subject, Lord Castlemaine has notified through the press that he had no connexion whatever with the undertaking, and never authorised the announcement of his name as a provisional director. Mr. Campbell, we understand, has also publicly repudiated the concern ; in fact, we are informed, upon unquestionable authority, that he and _his family are large shareholders on the Mullingar and Athlone line. How far others have similarly disclaimed, we have no means of ascertaining, as the company, though pro fessedly provisionally registered, with most praise worthy caution has latterly refrained from putting for ward any names whatever, as provisional directors, and all statements and announcements are now put forward in the name of" the promoters," without con descending to bestow "a local habitation or a name " upon any of those personages, Such an arrangement, we doubt nut, has its advantages, and, under some circumstances, may be exceedingly judicious; for instance, we question whether . a committee of gentle men whose names were authoptatively published as a direction, and exposed to public animadversion, would have been found bold enough to hazard the following announcement, which we find put forward by " th e promoters" in Ilerapath's Railway Journal of the 9th instant :—" That the Irish letters of allotment were issued on the 31st ult., the deposits upon which were limited for payment to yesterday, the Gth ; on the sth, however, they had been universally paid upon, with two exceptions only, and these would be likely to be paid on the 6th." We would not for the world charge upon " the promoters" a design wilfully to mislead and impose upon the public, 'but we cannot avoid saying that a more reckless or unblushing statement never was issued by any holy of men. The deposits paid upon all the Irish allotments, with two exceptions only ! Verily " the promoters" must have calculated largely upon public credulity ; contradiction to such a statement would be as absurd as it is unnecessary, and we would only as k " t h e promoters " one or two plain questions —questions, too, which must be ex plicitly answered if they would expect the public to grant credence to any other statement coming from them. Shares, as a matter of course, were allotted to the Marquis of Downshire ; the O'Connor Don, M.P., Mr. Grogan, M.P., and Mr. Daniel Henry Ferrall, all whose names appeared on the last list of the provisional committee we were favoured with. We would ask have any or either of those parties paid the deposit, or signed the deed ?—a simple straightforward question, and we expect a candid answer. Again, " the promoters" assert that on the sth all the Irish deposits were paid, with two ex ceptions ; how then was it that letters of allotment were a full week afterwards publicly hawked about the Dublin Stock Exchange, and exposed for sale without being able to find a purchaser, even at a most enormous discount, and with the aid of Mr. Leber touche, the committee-man and stockbroker of the company ? How is it that to this day we look in vain for any quotations of their stock, in the several share lists ? And lastly, we would respectfully ask Mr. Fitzstephen French how many of those who have paid the deposit, have done so upon the faith of his personal guarantee passed to exempt them from risk or loss ? These are questions which, if honestly answered, will enable every one to estimate the undertaking at its proper value ; and, left unanswered, not even the au spicious sponsorship, the laboured letters and mystified statements—the offers of purse and patronage by that worthy Mayo Baronet, Sir Samuel O'Malley—not even the Marquis of D owns hi re ' s pr i nce l y o ff er o f Edenderry-sand, will suffice much longer to blind the public or conceal the real merit of the undertaking. So much for the share list. On other matters we find " the promoters" equa ll y ungu arded in their statements. It was announced by them some ten days or a fortnight since, that the Dublin and Cashel line had offered them every facility, and given them every encouragement and support—and lo! in a day or two after, we have an authorised contradiction from the Cashel Board, denyin g th a t th e y had anyconnexion with the project, and stating that they had refused to pledge themselves to the support or encouragement of any particular line. A ga i n . a ne gotiation is being carried on between the original Great Western Com pany and the Directors of the Royal Canal. " The promoters" desire to prevent the transfer of the canal to the railway company, and with their customary accuracy announce to the public that the purchase cannot be perfected if even one holder of canal stock should object to the arrangement. A moment's re ference to the 58th Geo. 111., cap. 35, sec. 39 and 40, would have convinced them that full power is vested in the directors, with the sanction of the Lord- Lieutenant, or the Board of Control, to mortgage or sell the canal without any authority from the pro prietary. For what purpose can these clumsy and transparent mis-statements be so perseveringly in dulged in ? In judging between rival companies, the public can best be guided by the character of the projectors of such schemes. In the present instance, we have carefully examined into the constitution of the Mul lingar and Athlone, and of the Dublin and Galway Railway Companies ; in the former, we perceive a provisional committee composed of men of un doubted respectability, acknowledged wealth, and great business-experience, as a single glance at the list will testify. In the latter the Messrs. Bryden, Parliamentary agents and London secretaries; the Messrs. Labertouclys. and Stafford, committee-men, sharebrokers, and Dublin secretaries, appear to con stitute the greater portion of lie executive, and cer tainly in the distribution of offices the members of those forms have not been overlooked. We have also con trasted the present position of the two companies. The one, we perceive, is yet struggling with preliminary difficulties—its deposits only in course of collection— his surveys not completed, and all, as yet, doubt and uncertainty, whilst the other has the necessary capi tal subscribed, and at their bankers for some time— the surveys completed, and everthing prepared for go ing before the Board of Trade ; and having received the sanction of the Government to the transfer of the Royal Canal into their hands, no reasonable doubt can exist in any unprejudiced mind, but that the recom mendation of the Boad of Trade will follow that sanc tion, and ensure the passing of the Bill for the incor poration of the Dublin, Mullingar, and Athlone Com pany, in the ensuing session of Parliame n t. We would therefore again earnestly entreat of the promoters of the Galway line to pause era it be too late, and to retire from the unequal contest with a good grace, while yet there is room for retreat—re spect for themselves, and justice to their subscribers, point this course ; we hope they will have the good sense to adopt it. SUSPECTED MURDER.—The crew of a boat from an adjacent island landed of late at a place called Strand, in llarris, and there accidentally fell in with the body of a young female, after having been apparently thrown into a spring or bog of water. The body pre sented all the symptoms of the sad effects of violent hands. The face was dreadfully cut and mangled, and other parts of the body indicated that foul play had been cruelly resorted to. It is said that two medical gentle men inspected the remains of the unfortunate female, and discovered that she had been enciente. The authori ties are using all the means in their power to discover the perpetrator of the fearful deed, but as yet are un uccossful.—lncerness Courier.

A meeting was held on Monday at the Temperance Hall, in the Blackfriar's-road, in order to obtain sub scriptions in aid of the fund which is in the course of collection for the purpose of relieving the embar rassments of the Rev. Mr. Mathew, into which he has fallen in consequence of the sacrifices incurred by him in his successful efforts to encounter the baneful effects of intemperance amongst large classes not only of his own countrymen, but also of natNes of England. The handbill which announced the meeting contained the following energetic appeal : " Irishmen, Englishmen, rally round the great moral regenerator of his own nation and people, and the benefactor of man in every country. Uphold and prove your gratitude to the man who has generously sacrificed his time and his fortune to emancipate his fellow-creatures of every creed and country from the horrid slavery of intemperance. Come, therefore, and make a sacrifice to support him." On the motion of Mr. F. O'CONNOR, Mr. BUCKINGHAM took the chair, and announced the object of the meeting. He exhorted those pre sent to assist in for warding the great purpose for which they were assembled. lie presumed that the reason why he had been elected to fill the chair was, that he had been a coadjutor of Father Mathew in much of his labours both in Ireland and this country, and was thus enabled to speak on his behalf both as a witness and an advocate. Many persons of greater importance might have been appointed to the post to which he had been called, but none who knew better the character of the man to whom he had to refer, and in doing so he should confine himself to the most strictly truthful representations. Having ad verted to the general prevalence of intemperance in the British islands until of late years, and borne tes timony to the invaluable services of Mr. Mathew in eradicating the evil in some quarters, and greatly mitigating it in others, Mr. Buckingham in illus tration of the extent of the evil and the necessity of checking it, stated that the amount of the premature deaths from drunkenness in these kingdoms was not less than 60,000 a year. lie then described the origin and progress of the temperance movement, interspersing the narrative with a variety of appro priate statistical details. lie passed a high eulo gium upon Father Mathew for his zeal, disin terestedness, and enthusiasm in the cause, and ac counted for the pecuniary embarrassments in which he is involved, by explaining that he had sacrificed large sums of money in supporting and ministering to the wants of those pilgrims of temperance who re sorted to his house from remote distances. This, and the expense of the temperance medals, which he dis tributed gratuitously in large numbers, and of the foundation of temperance halls, and the establishment of temperance bands, and other measures which were necessary to perpetuate the great regeneration which he had originated, but which occasioned a large ex penditure, for which he was responsible, had placed him in his present difficulties. The result of Father Mathew's efforts was that 5,000,000 out of 8,000,000 I of people were made converts to temperance. What was that worth? He did nothesitate to say 5,000,0001. sterling at the least—there being 1,500,000 of tee totallers in England and Scotland, and 5,000,000 in Ireland. This was a benefit far greater than the emancipation of the negroes, for which we had paid 20 millions of money. He could not think that there would be any difficulty in raising a sum of money sufficient, not only to relieve Mr. Mathew from his difficulties, but to provide for him a handsome annuity, when he reflected upon a calcula tion which had been made, and which proved that a suns of a penny a month, from every teetotaller in the three kingdoms, would create a fund of 250,000/. a-year. After another handsome tribute to the exer tions of Mr. Mathew, the Chairman called upon Mr. PURVIS to move the first resolution, which consisted of a declaration of the great value of Father Mathew's services, and the justice of rescuing him from the straits in which his benevolence and philan thropy had alone placed him. Mr. Purvis announced his own readiness to contribute five guineas for the purpose. The resolution was appropriately seconded, and earnestly responded to (even before it was for mally adopted) by the eager liberality of those pre sent, who flocked in crowds to deposit their contribu tions in a plate prepared to receive them. Mr. F. O'CONNOR supported the resolution, and said that the support of Father Mathew was incum bent not only upon teetotallers, but also upon every man who drank a drop, and even upon the drunkard himself. He then expressed his satisfaction at the change which Mr. Buckingham had described as having taken place in his country, and stated that in the course of his former practice at the bar in Ireland, which had not been slight, he had never been called upon to defend a sober man against an impeachment for crime. If the .5,000,000 in Ireland would, sub scribe a penny a week each, it would amount to up wards of a million sterling a year. Father Mathew had given ears, eyes, and comprehension to Ireland. He thanked God that drunkenness was now the ex ception in that country, where it had hitherto been the rule. He then called upon the meeting to be liberal in their efforts in support of the temperance martyr, and invoked them with the pithy sermon of Dean Swift :—" He that giveth to the poor lendeth to the Lord. If you like your security, down with your dust." The resolution was unanimously adopted, as were also some others, which were introduced with speeches in furtherance of the object ; and a considerable col lection was made on the spot. A committee was ap pointed to keep the subscription books open till the end of the year. DUNBAR.—The North British Railway operations in this district are proceeding with the greatest rapidity. We are sorry to say that the contractors find it cheaper to ship stones from Fife, and land them here, paying all expenses, than to procure them in the neighbourhood.— Berwick Pap'''. The Attorney-General then went on to observe , that in several charters, granted by various Sove reigns of England, it was expressly stipulated that no summons, or order, from any of the Courts at, IVestminster ran in this island. His Majesty George M. ordered all Acts having force of law in this island to be registered, for the better information of his sub jects in these islands. The habeas Corpus Act Ind never been sent for registration until the year 1832, when it was transmitted to both Jersey and Guernsey; but the States, fearing this would encroach on their privileges, sent deputies to London, who made such representations as induced the Government at that period to abandon the subject without pressing for the registration. Th e c h,;:ters of Queen Elizabeth and of James 11. assured to the authorities of the island of Jersey full power in aft .;udicial matters. In the latter, more particularly, it Was stated— as he would show the Court—that they we; fully empowered to treat all causes, "personal, mixtes, pecuniary, criminal, and capital, wherein a native was concerned, and that without any interference. summons,' writ, letter, warrant, or order from any tribunal in Great Britain, except in those cases where his Majesty or his successors reserve to themselves the right of hearing and deciding any appeal made to them from the judgments of the jurats, said causes to be treated according to the laws, customs, and usages of the island, all orders, warrants, or sum monses from any other court notwithstanding ; the natives not being compelled to answer such orders, warrants, or summonses, but being allowed to rest in quiet to await justice in their court without fear of fine or penalty for contempt or contumacy." The Learned Gentleman concluded by remarking, that in consequence of what had taken place on Monday, and considering the importance of the subject as re garded the privileges and immunities of the islands. he would move the Court to take the matter into their serious deliberation and consideration and to resist the writ, at the same time grounding their judgment on the documents he had quoted and on all other such as had bearing on the question at issue. Of these there was a great number to read at present, but he would show that at a later period, when the code of 1771 was confirmed, these charters were as serted and the plenary powers granted to this tribunal recognised. In fact, all the Sovereigns had, if not added to, at least confirmed them. The Bailli observed, that as this writ would seriously militate against our privileges, it was de serving of serious and mature consideration. The subject being of an important nature, he thought the judges had better retire in order to consult together. MI the judges present concurring in the Presi dent's opinion retired, with the exception of Mr. E. Nicolle, who stated that his opinion was already formed, and he did not think it necessary to retire. After a deliberation which lasted exactly three hours and a quarter the jurats returned, and, after silence had been restored, the clerk of the Court read their decision, which was of a very lengthy nature, embodying the substance of the various charters and the constitution of King John, by which the judges of this Royal Court, in conjunction with twelve itinerant English justicers or judges, are pronounced a sufficient tribunal, from whose decisions lay no appeal but to the Sovereign. On the authority of all those various documents, and considering that the said C. C. Wilson could, if he thought himself in jured by the judgment given against him, have it re examined by presenting a remonstrance, and, if not satisfied then, could appeal by doleance to her Ma jesty in Council, the Court ordered the gaoler to take no notice whatever of the said writ of habeas corpus, and expressed it as their opinion that Justice Patte son had been deceived respecting the question of jurisdiction. All the jurats approved of the written judgment. Jurat E. Nicolle, in giving his opinion, said that the l3ailli, forming part of the deputation sent in 1832, must necessarily know what was said by Government on the subject. The Bailli—They abandoned it. Jurat E. Nicolle—Then I presume the Adminis tration of 1844 will do the same as that of 1832. I did not think it was necessary toi the Court to notice the matter. This ease will, of course, set the matter at rest as to whether the writ cloth or cloth not run. THE SLAVE TRADE. (From the Devonport Telegraph.) Extract from a letter from her Majesty's ship -Hyacinth, 18, dated August 27, 1844 :—Our orders have been to look atter sio.voc, coming in our way, and to detain every suspicious vessel. While on the south coast the boats have been dispatched four times, fourteen days each time, cruizing close along shore examining eve:y sail. Up to the 13th, nu shots were fired in earnest, but only "in a quiet way, desiring them to heave to." One vessel had been detained by the Hiacinth, and she having several Government guns with some English prisOners on board, &c., was sent into Loando for trial at court, but acquitted, owing, I believe, (but of course this is but a matter of my own opinion), to our English Consul having committed suicide, while delirious from fever, fourteen days before. She was called the Flir de Fago. On the 12th of August, Tottenham, the mate, was sent in the second gig, with four hands to pull in shore, and reconnoitre close in until he arrived at Fish Bay. On the 13th he saw a vessel at some distance, near the land. He immediately " gave way" towards her—when he got within musket shot he fired a gun, in order to make her heave to. No notice, however, was taken of this, the vessel keeping her way without altering a sail. Mr. Tottenham continued firing, and it being nearly a calm, be gained rapidly on her, and when within a hundred yards, he was not a little surprised at noticing the people on board busy in hoisting a large gun on the poop, and directing the same at his boat. Several muskets were also discharged at him. Thinking it was now time for him to do something, he deliberately aimed at every head he saw above the gunwale. At length he succeeded in getting alongside, and all the crew of the vessel shoved off on the other for the shore, which was not 200 yards distant. As he and his crew got on deck, one fellow leaped over and swam ashore. Mr. Tottenham immediately took pos session of the vessel, and found only one man there, who was dreadfully wounded—he died within forty hours after on board the Hyacinth, which anchored in Port Alexander, the bay where the engagement took place. The prize turns out to be a very tine brig, of 190 tons, called the Aventuraro. The captain, with 18 men, after fighting for three hours, ran his vessel on shore and deserted her. Fearful odds, five to nineteen ! The conduct of Mr. Tottenham deserves, as it will no doubt receive, its reward. CORONER'S INTMEST.—SUICIDE.—Monday after noon a jury was impannelled before Mr. William Carter, coroner for East Surrey, at the Rose and Crown, Long lane, Bermondsey, to inquire into the circumstances, at tending the death of Mr. William Jonathan Pragnall, aged 35 years, a master brass-finisher, carrying on an extentensive business at 98, Long-lane, who committed suicide :—Mr. Robert Tremaine, of 23, White-street, Borough, said, that in consequence of information he re ceived on Friday last, he was induced to go to deceased's house. He there found him in bed and apparently in great agony. Ile appeared perfectly sensible and knew witness, who asked him if he had taken anything -? De ceased replied that he had swallowed a large quantity of arsenic and corrosive sublimate Messrs. Wagstaffe and other medical gentlemen were called in, and did all that the nature of the case would would permit, but deceased died at four o'clock the following morning. John Wise, the sexton of Bermondsey, said he saw deceased on Fri day last ; he was then in a very excited state, and le said that what he had taken was owing to the miscon• duct of his wife. Mr. Sharp, a surgeon, was sent for, but that gentleman believing he had not taken poison, nothing was then given to him, and Mr. Gibson advised him to return home and live comfortably with his wife. Deceased and his wife walked away together, apparently reconciled to each other. Miss Caroline Tremaine said she saw the deceased alive on Friday afternoon last. He then called at her brother's, whom he asked to see. On witness telling him that her brother was out, he replied, " I am sorry for that, for he will never see me alive again." He afterwards shookl hands with witness and her sister, saying as he left, " Good bye ' God bless you both, I am now off to my long home." He also alluded to his wife's sniseondnct, and said he had taken poison because he could bear it no longer. Verdict, `! Tem porary insanity." a ale ' n w e i h n o d r s from and S.S.E., during COLLISION or VESSELS.—The ship George, CAI t. o y st g f Roberts, from St. Vincent, arrived in Kingroad late on Wednesday night, during tie l a h eav day l cables off the havi ng Nass Point ; having, moreover, another over the bow ready to let go. In ranging up past the quarantine ground, off Portshead, the night being very dark and dirty, the schooner Nora Creina, Orfeur, 173 tons burden, which arrived on the 10th from Smyrna, with a cargo of valonia, and lying at quarantine, was run on board of, end on, and immediately sank. All hands were providentially saved, but the vessel and cargo are a total loss. The schooner is sunk in 8 fathoms low water, and was anchored with 45 fathoms chain, in charge of a steady careful pilot, James Ray. The George is in charge of Mr. Joseph Bunn, licensed pilot, and was towed up to Cumberland Basin this morning by two steamers. She has lost top-gallant masts, and ap 7hars to day bare sustained other damage.—Bri s tol G ase tt e of . Age.
