Some idea, however, may be formed when we state that several hundred yards of the embankment and a temporary sea walling was swept away , and sixteen or eighteen waggons, besides trucks and barrows, severely injured. Some of the waggons were found at low water mark, others were embedded in the mud, and a great number of tools are said to be lost. 'This part of the line has from the first bees deemed by persons acquainted with the locality is impracticable as an attempt to control the tide. The chief engineer, notwithstanding, thought differently, having, as we have been given to understand by a gentleman likely to know, drawn his conclusion from the fact of an old ruin known as the Salt Pans, which is situated near the spot, having preserved its present appearance for a number of years. The intention of carrying the line this way it seems is now abandoned, and a new one will be formed further in shore. This project will be attended with an expense little anticipa ted by the shareholders at the commencement of the under taking.— Whttehaven Herald. rected not to leave them without payment ; but, being told that Mrs. Locke, or one of her sons, would call and pay his master, he left them at the house. He had called at the house several times, but Mrs. Locke was denied, and he had been unable to obtain the money. A policeman, who had searched the defendant's house, proved that he had found three pairs of boots belonging to Mr. Cawthorpe. [ln the course of the proceedings the re maining four pair of boots were brought to the court by a younger son of the female prisoner.] Mrs. Locke said she had no intention of defrauding Mr. Cawthorpe, and that she had gone to his house to ask for credit for a week, as her husband was short of money. Mr. BOND released the defendants on their promising to attend at the Court on Saturday, to meet this or any other charge. LATEST PRICES OF SHARES IN BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COM- PANIES' STOCK.

COTTON.—This article has heed dull. TEA. —There has been a firm market, and the business doing is steady. INnlGo.—Large public sales are coming on next Tuesday, and this checks private business.

SUGAIL—To-day there was a larger business transacted in all descriptions of West India Sugar, in consequence of mer chants accepting previous rates, and 1,100 hhds were actu ally disposed of, making the total sales for the week 5,080 hhds and tres, being a very extensive quantity. Prices closed generally the same as on Friday last. REFINED.—An extensive demand has existed for Refined Sugar for home consumption since Friday last; the low and middling descriptions have brought stiffer rates, whilst the better qualities 'fully support the former currency. There is only a limited quantity of goods on show. MAURITIUS.--This afternoon 2,760 bags and 156 casks of Mauritius Sugar were offered at public sale ; the chief part consisted of inferior sorts under 46s per cwt, mid only fit for refining purposes ; for these the demand was limited, and the prices taken exhibited a decline of is per cwt, but the better kinds fetched former rates. FORElGN.—Although there are sellers of Yellow Havan nah upon rather lower terms, still the amount of business transacted by private treaty has been limited in all qualities. For White the market has a dull appearance, and by private treaty there are sellers at easier rates. Brown Brazil is little wanted by our refiners working under bond, and for exporta tion there are few orders. Of White Brazil none has; been submitted to public competition ; there are sellers privately under late rates, but few buyers are to be met with. Porto Rico has been purchased with caution by private treaty at 235. Muscovado has met with little attention. Public sales are expected to be announced shortly. At ihe continental markets prices are not so firm for Foreign Sugar. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the market was better sup plied with all descriptions of Bengal Sugar; three parcels, amounting to 3,736 bags, were submitted to public competi tion ; of these 702 bags consisted of Dobah kind, and went at the full value. MOLASSES.—A lively demand 'has been experienced for West India, and very fall rates have been paid; the sales amount to 700 puns. TEA.—The market has a firm appearance for Black and Green, although arrivals continue on a large scale, and have amounted to 21,829 packages at this port since this day week, yet merchants have confidence, and again refrained from offering any at public sale. The quantity upon which duty was paid at this port during the past week amounted to 475,3931b5. COFFEE.—This afternoon Ceylon was purchased with cau tion by private treaty, but holders were firm ; 299 bags at auction were only partly sold at the former value, viz., very good ordinary at 48s to 48s 6d; country damaged first class 455 6d to 475, sea damaged second and third class 43s 6d to 44s 6d, a good ordinary pale sound was taken in at 47s •, 303 bags of Padang went 2s per cwt cheaper, and sold at 24s 6d to 25s for good ordinary green, and one lot 245; 5 pkgs of Jamaica fetched 60s for the ordinary, 49s for good ordinary, ad 32s to 38s per cwt for triage.

Of new Patras Currants there is none remaining, the last cargo having been cleared off at 495, and at present are much wanted. Of new Turkey Pulled Figs a large part of the only parcel as yet arrived re mained unsold, and the price was reduced to 655. For new Sultanas there is no demand, the price, being extravagantly high. Of Red Smyrna Raisins some sales have been made, but at very low rates. • SPIRITS.—An increased desire has been shown to purchase Jamaica Rum this week ; there has been an extensive de mand for every description principally for home consumption, and the rates paid exhibit an advance on those quoted of ld to Sd per gallon. Leeward Island has been purchased with increased freedom, and an advance in the value of ld per gallon has occurred. For Demerara a good demand has existed, and stiffer rates are given. Calcutta has been sought after, and commands stiffer rates. In all descriptions of Brandy a good deal has been done, but at no further advance in prices. Geneva is wanted, and prices rule high. INDIGO.—The accounts received to-day from Calcutta are very unfavourable for the crop, it having been much injured by the excessive wet weather, the estimates being as low as 110,000 to 120,000 maunds ; holders here, in consequence, dis played more firmness, and buyers were more inclined to operate. Of Bengal some parcels were disposed of at an advance on the rates of July of 2d to 3d per lb.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. THE GRAND JUNCTION AT CREWE. CREWE, THURSDAY.—To-day, about nine o'clock, a large number of the Directors and Shareholders of the Grand Junction Railway proceeded from Liverpool, by special tram, to Crewe (the Shareholders being the invited guests of the Directors), to inspect the extensive works of the Company there, the " town," &c. Thirteen large first-class carriages were filled from Liverpool, and reached the Company's works at Crewe shortly before eleven o'clock. Other guests from Manchester and elsewhere arrived about the same time. They first visited the extensive works which, with their yards, cover an area of about seven acres, chiefly in immense well lighted sheds and rooms, in which the various departments of making locomotive engines, railway carriages, &c., are carried on. The number of men employe,d on the works is from 500 to 600, and their wives and families in the village which contains in all about 2,000 inhabitants) will make an addition of more than double the men, or about 1,500 com fortably living under the Company. The premises have been re cently enlarged, and as the Company have in all therty acres of land in the same locality, there is ample room for such ex tensions as in the increasing traffic of the line may be re quired. Amongst the company we observed the Chairman of the Directors, Charles Lawrence, Esq., John Foster, Esq., J. Bold, Esq., and lady, Hardman Earle, Esq., Brebner, Esq., Captain Huish, manager; John Swire, Esq., James Thompson, Esq., &c. A ft er viewing the work s, the company walked up the village to the new church and schools, and were highly gratified by inspecting both. The church is in the Norman style of architecture, and a well-finished neat building, with a fine tower. It will accommodate about 650 persons. The schools for boys and girls are also large and commodious, and are well attended. A news-room, lecture room, and assembly-room adjacent were next visited. These are for the use of the workmen of the establishment, and are well provided with newspapers, books, &c. Lectures or con certs are given fre q uently in the evenings for their instruction and amusement. The village is rapidly increasing in neat detached cottages with gardens, and all is beautifully clean, and betokens the greatest comf ort. The Company have corn • pleted, or have in course of erection, no fewer than ninety houses. The guests, to the number of about 200, sat down to an elegant and sumptuous dinner. GLASGOW, BARRHEAD, AND NEILSTON DIRECT. GLasoolv, WEDNESDAY.—The first general meeting of the Proprietors was held at Carrick's Hotel, George-square, Glasgow, yesterday, when, on the motion of the Lord Provost, Sir John Maxwell, Bart., took the chair. Mr. Jonx TENNENT, the secretary, read the Directors' report, which, after congratulating the Proprietors on the success of the measure in Parliament, proceeded as follows : —They have entered into a contract with Messrs. Brassey, Mackenzie, and Stephenson, for the execution of the whole of the works, within eighteen months after obtaining pos session of the land, and at a price considerably within the Parliamentary estimate. The engineer is also busily en-. gaged in staking out the line, and your Directors have al ready secured immediate possession of nearly half the land required for the construction of the railway and stations, and similar negotiations are in progress with the remaining landowners. Your Directors have also contracted for a large supply of rails on moderate terms, and looking to the for ward state of their preparations, and to the well-known energy and resources of the contractors, they consider themselves warranted in assuring the proprietors, that this railway will be completed and opened at an unusually early period from the commencement of the works. They have also entered into an agreement with the Glasgow and Greenock Railway, whereby that Company are to supply carriages and engines, and to work the lines. They cannot but regard this arrangement as highly advantageous, as they have thus secured not only the economical and efficient conduct of the traffic ; but have also avoided the serious ex pense and inconvenience of providing plant and working so short a line. The report further proceeded to state that the Directors had concluded an arrangement with the Glasgow, Kilmarnock, and Ardrossan line, entitling the latter to a use of the Barrhead line on fair payment of toll. This line, in conjunction with the proposed Glas gow, Strathaven, and Lesmahagow, with whom a similar arrangement had been effected, would bring a large accession of mineral and passenger traffic on to the Barrhead and Neilston line, and much enhance its value, by not only connecting by means of these extensions and branches, and by the shortest practicable route, the city of :Glasgow with the mineral fields and manufacturing and seaport towns of Ayrshire, and with the extensive iron works and coal-fields of Muirkirk and Lesmahagow; but also by means of the proposed junctions of the Lesmahagow line with the Caledonian at Abington, and with the contemplated Dumfries and Carlisle at Sanquhar, forming a portion of the shortest route from Glasgow to Carlisle. The Directors also viewed, with congratulation, the proposed Glasgow Central termini line, and revised surveys were now being carried on for extensions from Barrhead to Hurlet and. Paisley, with branches to our mineral districts, for which purpose further capital would have to be raised. The large premium that had been obtained on the sale of the forfeited shares, would be more than sufficient to defray the unusual opposition to which the Bill had been wantonly subjected. The report, on the motion of the LORD PROVOST, seconded by Mr. P. M. STEWART, M.P., who complimented the Direc tors on the gallant manner in which they had gained their Bill, was unanimously adopted. On the motion of Mr. JAMES GRAHAM, of Fereneze, seconded by Mr. J. J. ROBERTSON, the following Directors were confirmed in their office Sir John 31axwell, of Polloc, Bart. ; Colonel Mure, ofCald well ; Patrick Maxwell Stewart, Esq., M.P. ; Christopher Saltmarshe, Esq., of Middleton Lodge, Leeds ; Alexander Graham, Esq., of Capin° ; John Crum, Esq., of Thornliebank ; William Stirling, Esq., Younger, of Kier; John Bain, Esq., of Morriston ; James Graham, Esq., of Fereneze ; Alexander Campbell, Esq., of Bedley ; H. E. Crum, Esq., merchant, Glasgow ; Thomas Dundas Spiers, Esq., Elderslie ; and Alex ander Alison, jun, Esq., Pitern. Sir J. MAXWELL, in returning thanks, said he looked on the proposed Lesmahagow line as one of the best mineral lines of the north. Messrs. Robertson and Brown were appointed auditors, and a vote of thanks, proposed by Captain Osborne, seconded by Mr. Bain, was given to M:r. Robson, the engineer. Thanks were also voted to Mr. Graham and Mr. Tennant, for their services; and to the E and the other arl of Glasgow, Colonel Mare, of Cald well,i'a members of the Provisional Directory. LONDON AND BIRMINGHAN Niw LUGGAGE VANS.—The Director of the London and Birmingham Railway are now havi g built a set of " luggage vans," for the express and o. :aer fast trains, so as to o b v i a t e th e necessary of placing large quantities of luggage on the roof of the passenger carriages, and thus causing oscillation. These vans are divided into compartments, in the same way as the passenger carriages, and subdivided in the interior, so as to separate the luggage intended for the different stations. Vans of this construction will be placed in every train between the en gine and tender, so that the objections very justly urged against the light luggage vans now in use, of causing the very evil which they are intended to prevent, will be re moved. Some of the new vans have already been tried, and we understand that the guards speak strongly as to the greater steadiness of the trains. We believe the Grand Junction Board mean to adopt them.—Railway d, of Wednesday. BRIDGE OVER TILE TAY.—The Edinburgh and Northern and Dundee and Kinross have determined to unite in con structing a high level bridge across the Tay at Newburgh, of such elevation and span as will accommodate the naviga tion, and comply with the conditions of the Admiralty. At the Edinburgh county meeting of commissioners of supply and justices of the peace on Tuesday, Sir John Hope, the chairman, and Sheriff Spiers adverted to the truck sys temtEaonddei n n c b do u ena r t g vr h ao ue , tra to od framefi o t r w a a s m properao g rdi fie e cation t r o e a g uo i prev a ili ng on some of the lines in construciion round IN e ; let t their full pi rri w tanh er gthe to me t e h din e tsr po e.cto lic r e s The Tyne Mercury, in noticing a new and imposing project in the north, says, it is proposed to complete a double line of railway from Newcastle to •the metropolis for the carriage of goods only; these goods being chiefly coals upward, and miscellaneous packages downwards. As this line would exclude passengers, great speed is not an object. The coals would be delivered in a condition far superior to those that go by sea, and the metropolitan markets would by this means be regularly supplied at all times with superior coals, on terms that would hardly vary, and which would be lower than any that London has yet seen. We have been favoured with an outline of some of the calculations for this scheme. As to the cost of the railway we cannot judge. It is estimated, however, at somewhat above four millions, and it is proposed to obtain a subscribed capital of five millions to meet all contingencies. The consumption of coal in London alone is about 4,000,000 tons annually. The carriage upon three million tons of coal alone would yield a handsome pro,- fit, even at rates very lowindeed.As far as the coal trade of Northumberland and Durham is concerned, a transit like this, if once effected, would be a great safeguard. They might thenceforward defy all competition, and enjoy a monopoly of the supply of the metropolis. DERBY AND GAmsEonouGil RAILWAY.--We heartily congratulate our fellow-townsmen, and the Shareholders, upon the steady progress the Derby and Gainsborough Rail way is now making in public estimation. An important ac quisition this week has taken place in the accession of Lord Worsley to the direction, and we understand it is intended to make that nobleman Chairman to the undertaking. His high standing and great parliamentary influence and expe rience, fully entitle him to this distinction ; especially as he is already chairman of the " Great Grimsby and Sheffield," and the "Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railways," which, with the East Lincolnshire, command very high pre nil urns in the railway market; the former about 20/.'per share, and the two latter from 6/. to 81. premium each. If the Shareholders of theDerbyand Gainsborough should succeed in amalgamating their line with those before mentioned, they woald form what might be very aptly termed the " Eastern compact," which, with other projected lines west of the North Midland, would form a com plete east and western chain of communication throui the centre of England, from the German Ocean to the Iris Sea, and might be very appropriately termed the "Centrals Mid lands." The Share Market he already felt the impulse of these favourhble circumstances, and we most sincerely hope the spirited promoters of this useful and bond fide 9nder taking will receive th e f u ll rewar d o f their valuable an# legi timate efforts in this undertaking.—Derby Me-eury.

IRISH GREAT WESTERN (DUBLIN, PORTARLINGTON, AND GALWAY).—On Tuesday a meeting was held at Roscom mon, Mr. Arthur Browne in the chair, when resolutions, proposed and supported by Dr. Burke, Mr. Moriarty, Mr. Oliver Corr, Rev. A. Egan, Mr. G. Digby, Mr. W. Sandys, Very Rev. J. Madden, and others, were passed, unani mously regretting the rejection of the line by Parliament last session, deprecating the opposition to the line, thanking Mr. Fitzstephen French for his services, and pledging sup port to the line next session, as best calculated to serve the general interests of the province of Connaught, NEWRY AND ENNISKILLEN, AND NEWRY, ARMAGH, AND LONDONDERRY JUNCTION.—At a meeting of the committee of the former company, Lord Newry in the chair, it was re solved to co-operate with the Newry and Armagh line, which proposes either to join the Newry and Enniskillen line at about a mile on the Omagh side of Armagh, or at the sta tion of the Newry Company in Armagh, so as to have a continuous line from Derry, Strabane, and Omagh, to Newry. DUNDALK AND ENNISKILDM—On Tuesday the first con tract from Dundalk to Castleblaney, ten miles, was let for 48,0001. to Messrs. Dorgan and M‘Cormick, the contractors. The works will be commenced forthwith, Lord Roden giving immediate possession of the land. CONTINENTAL LINES. TOURS AND NAYrEs.—The works on this line are urged on most actively, and it is thought that towards the Ist of Oct. a single way will have been laid down throughout the whole distance between Orleans and Tours, and that a trial trip will be made. The viaduots of Tavers and Beaugency were finished a fortnight or three weeks back, and the laying down of the rails is going on with great celerity in their neighbour hood. A letter from Tours states that it is considered certain there that the line will be opened as far as that city by the end of the year. MARSEILLES TO TOULON.—A meeting of the Provisional Board of Directors of this Company, for a railroad between these places, with an extension to Hyeres, and several branch lines, took place at Toulon last week, the President, Count Latour-du-Pin Chambly in the chair. The capital is to be 38,000,000 f., and the shares 500 f. each. SWISS LINES.—The Committee appointed by the Swiss Government for directing the lines in that country, has de cided upon the execution of the following lines, viz. Bale to Olten, Olten to Zurich, Olten to Lake de Biel, andOlten to Lucerne, being in all 44 Swiss leagues, and requiring an ex penditure of 30,000,000 f. LOCOMOTIVE MANUFACTORY AT ST. PETERSBURGII.— There exists in the capital of Russia an immense establish. ment of the above description belonging to Messrs. Eastwick and Harrison of Philadelphia, who have entered into a contract with the Russian Government to furnish all the machinery necessary for the construction and working of the vast lines projected in the whole empire. They employ at St. Petersburgh not fewer than 3,000 workmen. To keep in good order this congregation of men, composed of Americans, Germans, Englishmen, and Russians, a company of soldiers is always stationed at the manufactory, and a special body of police is appointed to attend there. Men of turbulent con duct, if foreigners, are dismissed at once on any grave contra vention of the regulations, and if Russians, they are tied up to a triangle and whipped with the knout. MM. Eastwick and Harrison have several times protested against this mode of punishment, but unavailingly. NEW COMPANIES.—The following is a summary of the new companies, 35 in number, proposing to enter the field next session, as competitors for ministerial concession. PARIS AND STRASBURGH.—No fewer than eight com panies have started for this line ; namely—Ganneron, capital, 125 millions of francs : De l'Est, 125 millions ; Bechet, 125 millions ; Gentil and Fol, 125 millions ; Caumont Laforce, 125 millions ; Doudeauville, 125 millions ; Flury Herard, 130 millions. Touns Asa NANTrs.—Six companies ; namely—Mac kenzie and Co., 60 million francs : Carette and Minguet, 35 millions • Drouillard, 35 millions ; Raiguecourt, 34 millions ; O'Neil and Co., 60 millions ; Jacques Lefevre, 35 millions. CREIL AND Smarr QuENTiN.—Five companies, namely— Cysaeus, 35 millions ; Carette and Minguet, 30 millions ; Colbert, 35 millions ; Amoux, 35 millions ; Flury Herard, 49 millions. Paws AND LYONS.—Eleven conpanies, namely—Latitte, Blount, and Co., 200 millions; De l'Union, 200 millions ;Pau neron, 200 millions; Calon the Younger, Lapinsonniere, Du Sud Est, Messageries Royales, Decan, Chastellux, Ossian Verdeau, and Independante, each with a capital of 200 LYONS AND Avnaztom—Eight companies, namely—Le cointe des Arts, 110 millions ; Talabot, 110 millions ; Meri dionale, 80 millions ; Chastellux, 110 millions; Griolet, 110 millions ; Odiot, 4,400,0001., and amongst the English Di rectors connected with which are Mr. Hudson, M.P. ; Sir John Easthope, M.P. ; and Mr. J. L. Ricardo. " The no minal capital of these companies," says the Chemins de Fer, " collectively amounts to between four and five milliards of francs, whereas the amount required for the execution of the lines is only five hundred millions. Supposing all the sub scription lists to be filled up, and a deposit of one-tenth made immediately by the subscribers, there will be taken from cir culation for two or three months or more nearly 500 millions, instead of 50 millions, supposing that only one company existed for each of the intended lines. This large drain of capital must have considerable effect upon the money market. Several more new companies for lines which will not be ad judicated during the present year are talked of." LAW INTELLIGENCE. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Oct 3. (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND, at his Private room, Lincoln's Inn.) CROLL v. EDGE AND WEIGHT. Mr. lam moved this day, on the part of the defendants, Edge and Wright, to dissolve the exparte injunction ob tained by the plaintiff at Whitburn on the 12th day of September last, to restrain the defendants from making and selling dry gas meters similar to those made by the plaintiff under his patent of 7th of March, 1844. On the part of the defendants various affidavits were read, with a view to show that the principle of the plaintiff's patent was not new. It was admitted, that if the plaintiff's principle was new, that the defendants' metre was an infringement. Mr. Wakefield and Mr. Welford appeared for the plaintiff. The VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND--I think the whole matter is so novel that the patent must be established at law. The injunction therefore will be dissolved ; the plaintiff to undertake to bring an action to establish his patent; either party to have liberty to apply to this Court. The rest of the motion to steed over to await the result of the trial at law. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Oct 3. (Before Mr. Commissioner EvANs.) IN RE MILLS. This insolvent, who had kept the Blue Posts public-house, Southampton-buildings, came up for his adjourned final order. Mr. DUNCAN appeared on behalf of a Mr. Shar pies to oppose, on the grounds that there had been a vexatious defence to an action and an improper dis posal of property. It appeared that an action had been brought for a balance of account for 251., but the verdict was only for 51., but on the execution being put in it was dis covered that the whole of the property had been swept away by a previous writ, at the suit of the insolvent's mother. Mr. I)uncan pressed for an adjournment. The Learned COMMISSIONER said that, as this was an ad journed meeting, he did not think it ought to be adjourned again, as it would be forming a very bad precedent; the opposing creditor should have been prepared with his case. As, however, it was a case fraught with suspicion, he would adjourn it at the cost of the creditor, and the insolvent's mother should be called. Mr. DuNcAx.said that Mr. Sharples would consent to pay the costs.—Adjourned. SECONDARIES' COURT, Oct. 3. (Before Mr. Secondary Parr En.) WILLIAMS AND ANOTHER V. GALLJARD. The plaintiffs in this action are managers of a loan society in Red-cross-street, City. The demand was for 51 13s. on a bill of exchange, of which the defendant was alleged to be the acceptor. The defendant, who conducted his own case, pleaded non-acceptance. On the part of the plaintiff, a witness was called who de posed that he was present in May, 1844, when he saw the defendant sign the bill. The witness was rigidly cross-exa mined on that point, but persisted in his identity of the de fendant. He was further questioned as to whether the lean for which the bill was given had not been paid. The Learned SECONDARY said that the defendant must confine himself to the plea of non-acceptance; he could not now be admitted to prove payment. The defendant said it was very hard on him ; he was too poor to employ a professional adviser. He then addressed the jury, denying most positively that he ever signed the bill. He said the acceptance was not even in his name, as there was an error in the spelling. The Learned SECONDARY said that the defendant had un fortunately not taken the steps to try the issues now raised ; it was a simple question whether or not he accepted the bill. The defendant said, the truth was, a lodger of his had re presented him without his knowledge, but that the amount of the loan had been paid. It was strange twillve months were allowed to elapse before he was called on. The SECONDARY said that the jury had but one issue to try, and he did not see how they could set aside sworn evi dence on mere assertion. Verdict for the amount claimed. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. On Thursday James Bolton, the driver of one of Messrs. Deacon's waggons, was put to the bar before Mr. Alderman Challis, charged with causing the death of a lad whose name is unknown. Mr. Brass, jun., of Silver-street, builder, stated that he was standing opposite the house, No. 62, Aldermanbury, which is under repair, and against which a ladder was raised, when the waggon came up. There was a truck drawn by two boys on the other side of the street. The waggon had to pass between, and in keeping clear of the ladder it ran against the truck. The forewheel caught the handle of the truck, and throw one of the boys down between the fore and hind wheel. The latter passed over his head, and killed him on the spot. The prisoner stopped directly he was called to, but the mischief had happened. He was driving steadily, and he did not impute misbehaviour to him. Mr. Dunnington, of Aldermanbury, gave a similar account of the accident, which occurred yesterday forenoon. He did not consider the act was wilful or negligent. The officer said he knew the owner of the truck. A clerk from Messrs. Deacon's gave the prisoner a good character as a careful steady driver. Mr. Alderman CHALLIS said, that notwithstanding the favourable tenour of the evidence, he must take care the pri soner should be forthcoming. The inquest would probably be held the next day. It must be a consolation land satisfac tion to the prisoner to find that, though he had. taken the life of a fellow-creature, he was not considered blameable. He remanded him until Saturday, with leave to gi' bail. QUEEN-SQUARE. Maria Locke, wife of the manager, surgeon, a zeouchimr, &c., to the "Royal Belgrave Lying-in Institution " (rear,,ect ing which some extraordinary disclosures took pl ace a short time since), and Edwin Locke, her son, were on T'dursday charged with unlawfully obtaining several pair a of boots from Mr. G.

Mary Evans, a female of homely look and meanly clad, was charged with intending to drown herself in the Serpen tine River. She was observed by Charles Griffiths, one of the boatmen belonging to the Royal Humane Society, who gave informa tion to John Hawkins, police-constable, No. 157 of the A division, who took the prisoner into custody. On her way to the station-house she admitted that she intended to drown herself. The prisoner, in answer to inquiries put to her by Mr. Hardwick, stated that she was 24 years of age, and had been living in service in the family of Mr. Scrivener, butcher of Reading. A farmer's son, who visited the family, seduced her, and induced her to follow him to London, a short time since. She lived with him about three weeks, in some place in the City. About a week ago he deserted her, leaving her penny less. She was forced to quit the lodgings they had oc cupied, and wandered about until she got a lodging at Pad dington,wbich she was obliged to leave the night before last ; her only change of apparel being detained for the rent. Mr. Hartmvicx—ls the account you have given of your. self true? Prisoner—lt is, I assure you. My father is a col lector of rates, and parish clerk of Wellingford. Mr. HARDWICK—Why not, rather than purposing this most wicked act, sinning against the laws of God and reason, is i t make aneffort to get back again to my- family? Prisoner (crying wish to do so , Sir , but my shame— Mr. A nnwicx—lf yon will promise not to repeat the wicked attempt you have made on your life, the means shall be furnished you of returning to your family. Prisoner— I am verry sorry, I assure you ; I'll never do it again. An inspector of the C division said she was literally famishing when brought to the station-house. She had no money about her. Scott, the principal officer for serving the processes of the Court, was ordered to attend to the unfortunate young woman's return to her parents. WORSHIP-STREET. On Thursday Mr. Vann, the solicitor, attended before Mr. Broughton, accompanied by Mr. T. Auvache, a master weaver, living in Manchester-street, Bethnal-green, on whose behalf he solicited the magistrate's advice and assistance under the following circumstances : Mr. Vann stated that his client, Mr. Auvache, had given some important evidence at the trial of James Tapping, the man who was executed at the Old Bailey in the early part of the present year for the murder of Emma Whiter, a young woman to whom he had paid his addresses; and after advert ing to the fact which had been elicited during the prelimi nary investigation of that melancholy case, that the mind of the wretched criminal had been in the first instance inflamed and exasperated against his unfortunate victim by receiving a number of anonymous letters affecting her character, the Learned Gentleman proceeded to state, that the subject of his present application referred to a series of similar communica tions which had been sent to his client, referring to a young woman named Brooks, to whom- Mr. Auvache had for a considerable period paid honourable attentions, and was shortly to be married. The anonymous corre spondence of which he complained dated its commence ment from the very week in which Tapping was executed, and the letters having been for scme time confined to mere vague, but virulent imputations, upon the young woman's reputation, which his client was perfectly satisfied were wholly false, he paid no attention to them ; but their ;concealed author having lately given expression to alarming invectives against the object of Mr. Auvache's affections, and in the most direct and unambiguous terms incited him to murder her, his client felt that it was high time to take some decisive steps for the discoveg of the offender, and to obtain legal assistance for that purpose. His anonymous assailant, however, appeared by some means to have become apprised of the course he had adopted; for on the day after his client had placed the matter in his (Mr. Vann's) hands, he had received another letter of a very alarming tendency, in which the writer, after declaring the most deadly vengeance against the applicant's intended wife, expressed his determination, should Mr. Auvache proceed Any further in the matter, or " attempt to raise his hand or voice" for the young woman's protection, to lie in wait for him and dash out his brains, and concluded by declaring that he was fully prepared to expiate the crime upon the scaffold, and advised him to take this as a serious and final warning if the author's intentions. The system of malignant and un relenting persecution to which his client and Miss Brookes lead been subjected had occasioned the greatest apprehension and alarm both to themselves and their respective familes, tnd, considering his own and the young woman's life to be laced in imminent danger, he had determined upon seeking `lie advice of the magistrate as to the best measures to adopt 'o insure their personal safety. Mr. Vann then handed to the magistrate a large bundle of letters, all, he said, relating to the subject of the present ap plicat, n, and after perusing some of them, Mr. BROUGHTON asked the applicant if his suspicions )ointed to any particular person as likely to be the author of hem? The applicant replied, that he had not the slightest idea who could have written them ; for, although he had certainly been threatened with personal violence by a near relative of Tapping, immediately after tha latter's execution, for the evidence he had given upon the trial, the threat he had used to appeal to the law for protection appeared to have been effectual, as the annoyance had ever singe been discon tinued ; and he was, therefore, quite at a loss to say from what quarter the threatening letters had emanated. Mr. BROUGHTON said, that the feelings of apprehension under which the applicant was labouring were certainly en tirely justified by the menacing tendency of the letters which had been produced, the last of which in particular contained a direct threat against his life; and he should therefore order Fitzgerald, the warrant-offic.r, to use the most vigilant efforts to discover the author of them, if possible, in which event he would instantly issue a warrant for his apprehension. The applicant thanked the magistrate for his attention, and left the court with his solicitor. THAMES. Thursday William Chinnerworth, second officer of the Sal- Bette East Indiaman, was charged before Mr. Ballantine with assaulting Mr. :Samuel Riddell, chief officer of that vessel, at sea. _ _ Mr. Riddell stated that the ship was from Calcutta, and that owing to the serious illness of the captain he was in command of the vessel. On the 18th of September, just before entering the Channel, the defendant, who came up to relieve him from his watch, used very abusive language towards him, and eventually struck him severe blows on the mouth and eye. Evidence was given to prove the assault. The defendant said the chief officer struck him first; he returned the blow, and they had a fight. The cook of the ship, a man of colour, who was called on the part of the defendant, said that there had been much ill-feeling between the first and second officers during the passage. Mr. BALLANTINE, after observing that the conduct of the defendant amounted to mutiny, fined him 21. 10s., and costs; to be committel, in case of non-payment, for twenty days. The fine was paid. SOUTHWARK. On Thursday Mary Brooks, a stylishly-attired woman, was charged with using threats of violence towards a Mr. John Harding. Another charge of a more serious nature, that o deserting her infant, and leaving it in an exposed place, was also preferred against the accused in the course of the proceedings. From the complainant's statement it appeared that Fome time since he took the prisoner under •his protection, and that, after living with him about three months, she was de livered digs child which she admitted she had had by anothe man. The prisoner afterwards placed the child, by her ac count, with a nurse at Cheam, in Surrey; but this fact th complainant does not know of his own knowledge; and, in order to dissolve the connexion that existed between them he entered into matrimony with another lady. The moment however, the prisoner found she was discarded, she went to the complainant's house, broke his windows, and threatened him with her vengeance; and as he considered his life was in danger be was compelled to adopt the present proceedings. The magistrate was about to decide the case when one of the parochial officers of Croydon stood forward and said, he charged the prisoner with having deserted her infant, leav ing it chargeable to the parish. The facts were these,—about nine months ago a very interesting baby was found in the passage of a house at Croydon, and while in that exposed situation it had a narrow escape of being trampled to death. The child, however, was rescued and taken to the workhouse, and although every effort had been used to discover the unnatural parent they were fruitless until within the last few days, when they received such information from Mr. Harding on the subject as to leave no doubt the prisoner was the mother of the child. Mr. Harding was examined, and he stated that he re collected when the prisoner took away the infant she had by another man, and she informed him on her return that she left it at nurse at Cheam, in Surrey. He added, that he had since ascertained the child bad been deserted, and left at Croydon, that he had seen it on a recent occasion, and had no doubt of its identity, and he admitted that he was induced to give information to the parochial authorities, owing to the prisoner's misconduct to him on his marrying. The parish officers produced the clothes found on the in fant when it was discovered, and a woman was in court who proved that the prisoner was the person who had made some of them. The prisoner admitted she had a child, but that it was out at nurse, and that Mr. Harding had made the statement against her out of s pit e f or h er having expressed her dissent to his marriage with another woman. Mr. Corm/GI-we said, after the facts alleged against the prisoner with respect to her being the person who deserted the' infant, instead of his dealing with her for the other charge, he should order her to be delivered up into the cus tody of the parochial officers of Croydon, and taken before the magistrates of that place. The prisoner was then conveyed to Croydon, and Mr. Harding, who seemed unwilling to proceed further in the business, was directed to attend to give his evidence there. THE LAND RAIL.—(From a Hampshire Corm spondent.)—This very delicious eating bird has been some what plentiful among us this year, and a few brace were killed on the 25th of last month. They were one lump of fat, and came to the table in prime order. They eat like no other game bird, for they partake of a mild richness which singularly characterises their species Ido not remember ever to have seen one of these birds among the extensive and varied collection of the London poulterers, nor is it by any means a common bird in this country. It is in this neighbourhood (Milford) called the corn crake , an d it mi grates, as so on as th e O cto b er f ros t s se ts in, to Spain, where it enjoys m ore l en i ent winters than our i s l an d affords, whereas, the water rail, it s congener, s t ays w ith us all the year round and may be m e t w ith i n most o f the marshy districts.

On the day of his arrival there, from his late visit to England, a grand serenade will 1:e, given him before his house, the street will be guarded by police, and a grand fete will be held—first will be a chorus with quartets, a young Englishman (Mr. John Gregg), who is studying the art of singing there, is entrusted with a solo part ; the celebrated Strauss, with the whole of his band, about one hundred; the chorus will be from fifty to sixty persons. Staudigl is to know nothing of this ; a friend will engage him to his favourite game, chess, while all will be prepared ; it will not take place until ten o'clock at night. The whole of the street will be illuminated ; there will be an assemblage of about 1,000 persons. It will be the first sere nade given to any singer in Vienna. After the serenade there is a grand supper, at which all the principal singers will le prexut, iii fa dress, LIST OP SCOTTISII COMPANIES' PRICES Dividend Amount Name of Company. Annum.

CORN-EXCHANGE. The arrivals of English Wheat for our market since Mon day have been on a very moderate scale; hence the show of samples of that description of grain here was by no means extensive. However, as the attendance of buyers was com paratively small, the demand for it was in a sluggish state. The finest parcels of both red and white mostly sold at full rates of currency ; but all other kinds could not be sold ex cept at a slight depression in value. Very little fine Foreign Wheat was on offer, yet it was fully adequate to meet the wants of the buyers. In all descriptions very little was doing, at barely late rates. The demand for bonded Grain for export to Holland hav ing ceased, scarcely a transaction took place, and prices were almost nominal. No aew English Barley at market. Grind ing and distilling sorts were without alteration. We had only a retail trade for Malt; but, as very little was on offer, late prices were maintained fur the best parcels. A full average quantity of Oats has reached us this week from Ire land, yet the trade was steady, and the quotations were well supported. In Beans, next to nothing was doing, and the currencies had a downward tendency. Maple and Grey Peas were dull and cheaper to sell. In Flour - no sales reported. • ARRIVALS.

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

HORRIBLE CASE OF MANSLAUGHTER AT NEW CASTLE.—An inquest was held on Monday afternoon, at Newcastle, on the body of Ralph Parker, a young man, who came to his death under the following melancholy cir cumstances : On Saturday night week deceased went into an eating-house in the Pudding-chare, to procure some re freshment. Some other persons were there when he went in, among whom were Selby Green and John Bell. Bell and others were tantalising Green in various ways, some times taking a portion of the meat off his plate. Parker, the deceased, joined in annoying Green, and also attempted to take a piece of the meat off his plate, when, of a sudden, Green took the knife he was eating with, and plunged it into Parker's eye with such force that it entered the socket several inches, and he was obliged to relinquish his hold of it and leave it there. The deceased shouted in excruciating agony, and attempted to take the knife out. but could not ; Bell endeavoured to pull it out, using great strength, but failed, and Green himself, awakened to a sense of the injury he had inflicted, also tried with both hands, and at length succeeded with much difficulty in extricating it. The police took Green into custody, and conveyed Parker to his resi dence, where he lingered in great pain till Sunday, when death put an end to his sutierings. After the jury bad viewed the body, the Coroner ordered a post mortem examina tion to be made, and adjourned the inquest for that purpose. COMBAT OF BALLOONS AT VAUXHALL GARDENS.— Wednesday evening the long-announced pyrotechnic and aerial dis play, in the shape of an ascent of a number of toonstre fire and gas balloons, took place at the " royal property," which was crowded with visitors of everygrade, including a number of persons of rank and distinction. The balloons were designed and executed by Mr. Darby, the celebrated pyrotechnist, in conjuction with Mr. H. Coxwell, the editor of the Aerostatic Magazine, and Mr. Gypson, the well-known aeronaut. The Waterloo ground was the scene of action, where the aerial army was ranged rank and file. One of the balloons was a perfect representation of that popu. lar character Mrs. Caudle, and her appearance was the signal for a general shout. Then came the immortal Punch in all his glory, who was equally well received. In order to render these miniature machines and the grotesque figures more distinctly visible, the ground was lighted up by a variety of coloured fires. which mate rially added to the general display. The balloons ascended simultaneously, and at an altitude of several hundred feet exploded, discharging fireworks of every description, and ending in one gene ral conflagration, forming a coup d'ceil the most brilliant. The applause of the spectators was loud and long-continued. We per ceive that on Monday next (the last night of the season) Mr. R. Wardell and Mr. T. Holt, the lessee and treasurer, will take a joint benefit, when all the talent of the metropolitan theatres, in conjunction► with the artistes of Vauxhall, will appear, and thus render thefcte the most brilliant of the season. _ CRIM. CON. AND ROBBERY. At Worship street Police.court, on Wednesday, a young man named John Hooking was committed for trial, charged with eloping with the wife of a cab driver, named James Freeman, and with carrying oft; at the same time, the whole of Freeman's household giiods. The frail "fair one " is a complete cripple, and walks upon crutches, but she is said to be in expectation of considerable property, and thence her attractions. The youth declared that the property he was charged with stealing was given to him, and on leaving the Court he took au opportunity of kissing the complainant's wife, exclaiming at the time, " Well, good bye, old girl, never mind I" FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—On Monday morn ing last, about eight o'clock, a fatal accident occurred at the junc. tion of the Leigh and Kenyon with the Liverpool and Manchester line. A young woman, about twenty years of age, named Ellen Platt, of Tyldesley, near Leigh, started from the Bag-lane (Chow.. bent) station, with the intention of proceeding to Liverpoel by the half-past seven train. On arriving at Kenyon Junction, she got out of the carriage at the contrary side to that which is customary, and walked round the carriages on to the Liverpool and Man chester line, for the purpose of crossing to the place where the Manchester train stops, to convey the Liverpool passengers to their destination. At this moment the whistle was heard, and a train of third-class carriages was seen rapidly approaching on the track which the unfortunse woman was just stepping upon. A working man, who was travilliling from Bolton to Warrington, witnessing her danger, rushed forward to endeavour to save her, when the " buffer" of the engine threw them both a considerable distance ; they were taken up and conveyed to the railway station, and every assistance was rendered by Mr. Bradshaw, superintendent of the Bolton line, Mr. Linten, superintendent of the county constabulary, who happened to be in the train, and others. Mr. Bradshaw dis. patched an express engine to Leigh for medical assistance, and Mr. Brideoake, surgeon, was speedily on the spot, but in less than half an hour from the time of the accident the woman expired. The man, we understand, is doing as well as can be expected, and has been conveyed to his residence at Bolton.—Manchester Guardian.
