PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT. MANCHESTER and BIRMINGHAM and TRENT VALLEY JUNCTION RAILWAY. PROVISIONALLY REGISTERED. A railway through the valley of the Churnet, being the shortest and best route from Manchester to London, having been defeated on the Standing Orders during the last session of Parliament, and afterwards abandoned by its projectors, when at a high premium, notwithstanding the decided report of the Board of Trade in its favour, it has been determined by a large number of Shareholders of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway, in conjunction with other influential parties, to snake the line. It will com mence at the terminus of the Manchester and Birmingham Rail way, at 31acclestield, and will proceed by the towns of Leek, Cheadle, Uttoxeter, and the most eligible point on the Trent Valley line ; thus, by means of that railway, giving the shortest and best route from Manchester to London. This line being a natural extension of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway, the preference will be given, in the allotment of Shares, to the Proprietors of that Company, but a fair proportion will be reserved for the landowners on the line. A more detai:ed Prospectus, with the names of the Pro visional Committee, Engineers, and Solicitors, will immediately be aril, i 1 the mean time, all communications must be ad dressed to Messrs. Sale and Worthington, Solicitors, Fountain-street, Manchester. August 26, 1845. MANCHESTER AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY.

This Estate presents to capitalists and others desirous of a safe in vestment, a most favourable opportunity, as the Laud abounds In minerals, and the certainty of uniocking the resources of the country by the projected itailivetys, enhances its prospective value to an in cslculable extent. The Mansion House of Goppa on Lot 1, with a trifling outlay, would form a suitable residence for a geticman of fortune ; severe: trout streams pass through and adjoin the property ; and the covers are notorious for eerie woodcocks. Every Lot on the Estate has the advantage of having extensive Sheep Walks attached, and on most of them are Labourers' Cottages. The property is situate on both sides of the turnpike road leading from Dolgelley to Maentwrog and Tanybwlch, and is distant from the former place twelve miles, and from the latter live miles. The lots may be viewed on application to the tenants. .111 further information, together with particulars and lithographic plans may be obtained from Walter Powell Jones, Esq., Cern Rug, near Curwen ; Mr. Robert Roberts, Bodtegin, near Cerrig-y-druidon ; Messrs.

WORCESTER MUSICAL FESTIVAL WORCESTER, THuRSDAT•—The eoncert last night again liettofis ' for thil occasion were the Madrigals " Now is the month of maying" (Morley's, of the date of 1597), and " All creatures now are merry-minded'? (Benet, 1601). Miss Rainforth appeared in the utmost perfection in Weber's most brilliant scena from Oberon, the recitative " Ocean, thou mighty monster I" and the air, " Still I see thy billows foam ing " The accompaniment of the band here was of the finest order. The Misses Williams and Miss Whinall, in cavatinas, arias, and ballads, added to their already well-earned laurels. Herr taudigl again astonished and delighted in Mozart's beau tiful air— " In diesen heil'gen itallen, Kennt man t ie Rache nicht," as also in Hatton's magnificent song, " Revenge," and that from Dee Frieschute—" Haste. nor lose the favouring hour." Mr. Yearsali was somewhat weak in the cavatina from the new nro.re, The Enehantress—“ Oh. what are rank and glory!" H 4 -, b' d lighted us w, h tris beau iful rendering of that delicious song by eellamy, •• Eulalie," and the other members of the force were in excellent voice, Machin especially rendering abundant service to the cau-e of hilarity by the exquisite style in which he led on the laughter-moving air and chorus from Handel, " Haste thee, nymph" (see Milton's Allegro); the picture of " Laughter bolding both his sides" was rendered a All such emphatic and startiiog truth by the combined force of singers. • hat a large majority of the audience were compelled et necessitate to get up an opposition in the shape of a real. p 1 axle, and unmistakable laugh. long. loud. and general.

Mr. Hobbs led off the recitative " Comfort ye my people," in his usually chaste and effective style, and Mr. Machin ac• esmplished the difficult air "But who mi.y abide," in a manner most satistactory to his warmest admirers. Mr. Young sang with great purity the air " Behold a virgin." This was succeeded by the massiv.,, rich. and sonorous voice of He, r Staudigl, ringing and beautiful even in its lowest depths. in the recitative " For behold darkness." The chorus, " For unto us a child was born,' was given with almost electrical effect, and so perfectly under control was the immense volume of sound, that pictured to the mind's eye the awful greatness of the " Wonderful counsellor; the mighty God!" that the company simultaneously rose and demanded a repetition.

II LA !am ►as Pt P.n.—After the expenditure of a con.itterahte sum of money we are informed that this pier eannet 'ea* be opened to the public. It will be in the re c.dlection of our readers that Vlore is a suit in existence be tween the Crown and the Corporation of London relative to the oweer.hip of the soil and of the river. The case wa, in the Court, and the Corporation having demurred to the proauciten of their title, and their demurrer having been overruled no.ice was given some time ago of their intention to appeal against the decision of Lord Langdale to the House of Loma. On the notice being given the law officers of the Crown very properly required that until the decision of the House of Lords could be obtained the Corporation should abstain from the exercise of all acts of ownership. This proposition was objected to, and on the 12th inst. thi s o bj ect i on was argued before L ord Langdale, and the following is the re sult of his Lordship's decision :—" The Corporation are not to erect or license the erection of any additional pier, jetty, or landing-place, nor to embank or license any embankment, nor drive piles or give permission to drive piles, or exercise any other acts of ownership in or over the banks or bed of the River Thames until after the expiration of a week after pre. vious communication with the Commissioners of her Majesty's Woods and Forests, except only for the purpose of repairs or restoration, or to provide for any sudden emergency, in which case immediate notice is to he given to the Commissioners." We understand that at this new pier there is not adequate frontage, that only one boat can approach the pier at the same time, and that applications have been made to admit nearly sixty boats an hour. The decisions of the City authorities for preventing the accidents to which all steamers are liable have been so very tardy, that we trust the Government will adopt some more efficient means to protect the public, and prohibit the opening of this pier. THE WHITECHAPEL DISTILLERY CASE.—We are informed, that although the cause with respect to this affair has been concluded. and the penalty inflicted on Messrs. Smith on acct.unt the Fxcise authorities for the imputed irregu larities with which they were charged has been paid, yet the firm arc not permitted to transact the smallest amount of business, either in the shape of manufacturing operations, or of the tii4osai of any portion of their stock, until that part of the establishment appropriated to rectifying purposes has been entirely removed. We do not vouch for the correctness of this statement, but we have reason to believe that it is per fect y so. It is understand that if the firm think proper to re move the stock to the premises of another distiller, the Exci,r make no objection to its bring permitted, at the le.outre of the owners, into the stocks of retail dea:ers; but ~e : i,fue t emits to any portion of it to be delivered from :lie klvli teeha i el ptemisss until the conditions before rucntioeed shal have been complied with. It is further under stood that the firm object to this, on the ground of the immense expense e st:tend isaremoval, independently of the iiic , evet,ience of • ueli a p , oceeding, and therefore they are ca. po,ed to the 'enormou• expense of sustaining the greater por ti-n of their extensive estabii-hment until the whole of the rectifying-house shall be entirely removed. Tine A ftTLEIEN 11 ELL AT SOUTHAMPTON.—The operations for boring for this well, which has already attained a greater depth than any other in the kingdom, have for some time been suspended. Although the present depth of upwards of 1,300 feet has been obtained only at a very great outlay, the present supply,of water is quite deficient for the purposes of the town. nor does it appear that the hilt in which the bring has t,,ke e place :voitain" any ad. ousts water reservoir. It has been '-'774 stet; that it the boring lie continued about 200 or 300 feet il , eper he lower gr-i n 'and. the supply may be found suf ficiently ate is. The well is sunk at the top of the hill or which the race-course is situate, about two miles from Southampton. THE S UN, LON DON, FRIDA EVEN ENG, AUG UST 20, taiS on the Government side. An Irish county has lately been called upon to exercise its franchise. The county of Down, where the present Lord DOWNSHIRE has been succeeded by his brother ; and how far the Devon • shire family support the policy of PEEL may be gathered from Lord DEVONSHIRE'S having lately presided at the great Orange Enniskillen demonstration. The voices of small boroughs are Sir R. PEEL'S consolation for the disclaimers of county and large borough constituencies. He takes care to select and to shift the members of his Government, so that a powerful patron or a large purse shall secure their small constituencies, however the opinions of the Government may change ; and the mighty public mind of Chichester, Cir.. ncester, and the like gives its sanction to the Peel policy. The recent appointment of Mr. DARBY to be one of the Inclosure Commissioners will make a vacancy in the rep-e-entation of East Sussex, and there is no doubt that East Sussex will follow the example of other comi ties, in making it a sine qua bon for the Tory candidate to abjure the Peel policy. The Sussex caper announces Mr. FREWEN as a candidate, who lately hid for Kent on anti-Maynoeth and agricultural prott cti grounds. Mr. PREWEN'S estates in Sussex are more extensive than in Kent, and he vial probably be the Tory candidate to succeed Mr. DARBY. It is well known that Lord DELAWARA has coveted this seat for his son Lord CANTALUPE, since Lord CANTALUPE'S rejection at Lewes; but the son of Lord DELAWARR would have to go to the Sussex far mers a thorough supporter of PEEL; and that would be "no go." The West Sussex farmers do not benefit by Lord ARTHUR LENNOX'S good berth at the Ordnance, and the other jobs which the Duke of RICHMOND'S show of opposition to the Government policy enables him to effect with the Government. So the west Sussex farmers are not likely to acquiese so quietly in the re turn of a Peelite as is convenient for the Duke of RICH.. Noma at Chichester. It is some time since we first endeavoured to impress upon the public our own conviction that the " Woods and Forests" department of the Government, under the chief commissionership of the Earl of LINCOLN, required to be narrowly watched. The successive specimens it had afforded of incapacity, vacillation, bad taste, and misapprehension of the public feeling and sentiment with reference to the erection of the NELSON column in its present kcality ; the difficulties thrown in the way of executing that beautiful work according to the original design of the architect ; the insulting reason assigned for refusing to allow the long-promised banquet to be given at its base to the surviving veterans of Trafalgar (namely, that the festive re-union of so many ancient tars might compromise the public peace!); the monstrous puerilities perpetrated under the Department's express patronage and encouragement, in the shape of the tiny fountains which disgrace, and the enormous basoes which encumber, the " finest site in Europe" (the one bearing to the other much the saute relation as Falstaff's halfpennyworth of bread to all his gallons of sack); the mock-asphalte pavement of the great, starring, deso• late plajonde or rea, already disintegrating, and subsiding into unsightly hollows and patches ; these were so many accumulated evidences of inveterate Vandalism in a public board which (by an extravagant official fiction) is supposed to be specially competent to the direction and superintendence of such of our national edifices, streets, parks, &c., as come within its ample jurisdiction or statutable commission. But the volunteer crusade undertaken by the Earl of LINCOLN against the hereditary rights, at common law and by custom, of the poor of this country in common and waste lands, we have, as often as the matter ha• been brought under VW notice, denounced, as about the most unjust and unpopular measure which a member of any Government, professing to act in a generous and popular spirit, eter set in motion. By dexterous management the Com•uons luclosure Bill, after attract ing in the Lower House a great deal of abstract con demnation, and being impeded in its progress by the practical obstacles of a few stout divisions, was adroitly dawdled on, through all its preliminary stages, till, by reason of the very weariness excited in those who had resisted it by reiterated postponements, explanations, &c., it slipped through a third reading and passed, with out disturbing the slumbers that Lord LINCOLN'S eloquence had succeeded, as usual, in producing. In the " Lords" we did, at one time, confidently hope that it would have met with that repu diation which it so richly merited. We were de ceived. It was put into the multitudinous division of the Bills composing the " arrear business from the Commons," and so, in the last moments of the expiring session, was passed—(pitch-forked, rather)—in the mass with half a hundred companions, through its final read ing, and received the royal assent. Tuesday's Gazette BLAMIRE had been nominated by her MAJESTY'S Com missioners under this inauspicious Bill. With good salaries attached to their offices we may well presume, for without these what " motive" power could have removed out of their previous positions, a county Mem ber and a Tithe Commissioner. Is there no chance of drawing off; from his present " holding" at Whitehall, the tenacious Earl ? Is there no other snug berth, by the offer of which he might be detached from a post in which his opportunities are so great, and his will ap pears to be so good, to commit serious mischiefs ? We see that, if not the Noble Earl, some kindred spirit is now at work in Greenwich Park. Some official authority or other, delighting in those stealthy infringe. ments on the elbow-room of the people whose fate it is to be denizens of this densely populated metropolis, which were a little while ago attempted on a small scale in the extended inclosures of the green-sward of the Green Park, immediately adjacent to the houses of the aristocratic residents in that quarter, and which are now to be pushed on a much more gigantic scale throughout the country, under the powers of the Waste and Com mons Inclosure Bill—has already commenced the dese cration of one of the most beautiful spots in Greenwich Park, in impudent defiance of the implied pledge given in the House of Commons but a few weeks ago, that the work which had beets begun here should be abandoned. Just behind the Ranger's house, a vast circle is in pro cess of " scalping," prior to the excavation of a huge re servoir for the supply of Greenwich Hospital ; a purpose that can be infinitely better accomplished by laying down a main and some length of leaden pipe in the town itself, at a very inconsiderable charge to the magnifi cently endowed foundation in question. Those of our rt adsrs who remember the beautiful expanse of lawn in the Purk betwt en the upland glades that run at right angles to the Blackheath-wall, will at once appreciate the execrable offence of the eye-sore which is thus about to be produced on one of the most perfect features of asylvan retreat, the equal of which few European capitals can boast, whether considered simply in relation to the beauti: ful contrast it presents to the busy city from which it is so shortly rem wed, or in respect of the variety and effect of its mingled glimpses of woods and waster, its hospital palace, and the incessant transit of its shipping. A re servoir in such a spot is a perfect abomination. The Park of Greenwich is a national as well as a royal de mesne, and it is an ill return to the people who annually contribute whatever is required for its maintenance, and attest the pleasure they derive from their free access to its healthful enjoyments by the eagerness with which they resort to them at all seasons of the year—to cut up one of the finest expanses which the Park comprises for a purpose so inadequate to justify such spoliation —so easy to be better answered, in the town itself, by other and quite unobjectionable means. We are quite sure that the new Ranger, the Earl of ABERDEEN, cannot be aware of what is being proceeded with, during his absence in attendance upon the Sovereign abroad. But since it is evident that the design is to put all reclamation and protest, whether founded on the pledge we speak of as having been given in Parliament, or on any other grounds—out of date—by making the quickest pos sible progress with the excavation, we do trust that the inhabitants of Greenwich will adopt the promptest possible measures, by memorial or protest, or petition, as may be agreed upon at any public meeting to be convened for the impose in their town, to induce the authorities under whose orders the work has been undertaken, to desist from all further proceedings in it. At the re-assembling of Parliament we hope to find some spirited Member, — Mr. NEWDEGATE for example, who lives in the neigh bourhood, or the borough Member, calling for informa tion as to the parties with whom this unseemly business has originated. If Government value the reputation of their own promises, they can scarcely refuse to afford such information upon (:eniand Accounts have been received from Greece, which state that the Minister of Finance had presented to the Cl►arnbers a project of law to the effect of prohibiting the circulation in that kingdom of American dollars. According to the project, that coin is to be received in the public treasury for its present value (six drachms) only during the fortnight following its promulgation. This delay once expired, the dollar will continue, during two other months, to be worth 5 drachms and 75 lepta, after which its circulation is to be altogether prohibited in Greece. No intelligence has arrivea from Madrid of a later date tha❑ that we gave vest , rday. We have r.ceived toe Paris papers of Wednesday They all of them comment on the recent cinlnge in the Turkish Ministry, which is by all parties looked upon 83 a step in the right direction. The Pi esse, speaking of the suddenness with which the SULTAN came to the reso lution of diSmissing Rua PACRA, says— " The cause of this sudden resolution of his HighneFs is not known. Some loyal servant, invested with his entire confi dence, no doubt apprised him of the numerous misdeeds of Riza Pacha, whose prolonged favour was a scandal for all Europe. The Sultan, left to himself, is animated with ex cellent intentions. He is easily deceived, but she moment his eyes are opened he does not hesitate to sacrifice the men, be the post they occupy ever so elevated , who have been wanting in their duties or abused their positions. Suleyman Pacha, the successor of Riza, is one of the creatures of the latter ; but he is a far more intelligent, enlightened,: and ho nourable man. Whilst Riza remained in office, Suleyman Pacha could nut give effect to his personal views, which are favour able to progressive and wise reforms. But now that he is free from the yoke which pressed upon him, it, is to be hoped that he will be guided by his ovin judgment, and make it a point to remedy th evil inflicted on Turkey by the narrow, ignorant, retrograde, and bigoted policy of his predecessor. A letter from Vienna confirms the dismissal of Riza Pacha, and informs us that Rifaat Pacha, the last Minister for Foreign Affairs, a moderate and irreproachable man, had been appointed Presi dent of the Council of Justice, in the room of Suleyman Pacha." _ _ the Duke and Duch.ss DE NEmouas arrived at Paris on the 22d, and w,, , re received with the greatest enthu- sla sm. Thirteen of the journeymen carpenters out on strike have been convicted of an illegal combination to obtain an advance of wages, and have been severally sentenced to different terms of imprisonment, varying from three years to as many months. Marshal BUGEAUD, who seem.; determined to set the Government and Chambers at &fiance, has taken upon himself to address a circular to the officers in command of the different military divisions in Algeria, calling on them to forward, as much as lies in their power, the practice of military colonisation in the French posses• sions in Africa. Accompanying the circular is a plan of colonisation, holding out to the settlers certain ad vantages, which may be thus summed up :- " Such noncommissioned officers and privates, as shall on their own application be chosen as military colonists, are to be allowed a six months' furlough to go and get married. They and their wives are to have their travelling expenses paid both in going and returning. Whatever furniture or goods they may possess, are removed to the colony at the ex pense of the state. The state undertakes to pay all the ex• pense of building villages, and will furnish alt matters not found on the spot, the colonist being expected to give only his own labour and that of his wife. The state engages to give to each family a pair of oxen (or tillage, two cows, ten sheep, a sow, two ploughs, a cart, and a sufficiency of the smaller agricultural implements. The military colonists are to receive food, pay, clothitig, and all the allowances of infantry sol diers for three years. &zit colonist will receive ten hectares of land fit for tillage, of which be is to remain full owner when once married and settled. The officers, whose presence may be judged necessary far carrying out this plan of military colonisation, are to receive land in the following proportion:- Colonels or Lieutenant-Colonels,five portions, or fifty hectares; Chef de Battalion, four portions ; Captain, three; and Lieu tenant, two. Their houses are to be built at the expense of the State, but they are not to receive any indemnity for fur niture or agricultural implements. The colonists are to re ceive trees of all kinds, and seeds for their first crop. An ad vance of 400 f. may be given them for indispensable articles of furniture, on condition that they repay it either in money, ee the produce of their land, in a space of three years. The colonists are authorised to bring back with them some indi viduals of their family. If they return wiih their wife only, they are to be joined in the cultivation of the land with any one of their comrades that they may prefer. After three years, the colonists will not be entitled to either pay, pro visions, or allowance. They must thenceforward provide for their own existence." The publication of this circular has called forth con siderable animadversion from nearly all the Opposition press. They declare his conduct to be illegal, and directly opposed to the wishes of the Government and the Chambers. We subjoin a few extract., to show how cur Contemporaries regard this act of the Govern.,r- General. The Autional uses; the following languatte:- " We defy Marshal Aoult to defend by his silence this new vagary of the African hero. Hitherto the admonitions ad dressed to the adviser of the roasting of the Daiwa, the recom mender of the crapaudine and the eon rouge, have been able to remain unknown; but at present in face of the publicity imprudently given by the Governor of Algeria to his agricul tural conceptions. the disavowal must be public, and it cannot be ton quickly given to satisfy the public mind, impatient to know if there is anywhere a man more powerful than the con stitution itself." The Siecle uses nearly similar language. From a report by Captain ORMAND 13ARBAYAN, which appears in the Journal du Hume of the 26th, we extract the following " A short time previous to my arrival in the River Melia core, the Messange, Government schooner, dispatched by M. Baudin, commander of the African station, had arrived, in order to effect a treaty of commerce with the chiefs of that river, by which the French were to enjoy all the privileges accorded to ether nations. As .soon as the English knew of this they sent a Chargé d'Affaires to the ch.efs to induce them to cancel the treaty concluded with us, and make another, by which all nations but England were to be excluded from trad ing in the river. It was only by the positive refusal of Amarold, one of the principal chiefs, that they were com pelled to abandon their project. This occurred during my sojourn on the river." According to the Courtier Francais the Minister of Commerce had arranged with the Chamber of Commerce of Paris to send out to Mayotte, samples of the various -Imre • v von ment Court of Justice, when traders and the natives of the coast of Africa and Madagascar may inspect them. The delay fixed by the Minister of Public Works for sending in the registers, lists of subscriptions, and other documents relative to the adjudication of the Great Northern Railroad of France and the Fampoux and Hazebrouck branch line expired on Monday, Aug. 25, at midnight. A single Company has complied with the required formalities for the Northern line. The princi pal subscribers are- Ales.srs. de Rothschild; Brothers ; Hot tinguer and Co.; Baring, Brothers, and Co. ; Laffitte, Blount, and Co.; Fillet Will and Co. ; J. Lefebvre and Co.; Gouin and Co.; P6pin-Lehallsur ; Dccan ; Baron Atthalin ; Admiral de RC.samel ; the Duke de Tre/ise ; and a number of the Receivers. General. The capital for the Northern line is fixed ut 150 millions ; it is to be raised to 170 millions in case of thejunction of the Fain poux line, and to 200 millions in case of the ulterior junction of that of St. Quentin. All the shares are deli vered at par. The ode de secrete, deposited with the Minister of Commerce t'ne same day, constitutes the Board of Directors as follows :-Baron J. de Rothschild, President; Admiral de Rosamel, Peer of France; P. Hot tinguer; C. Laffitte; Pepin-Lehal leur; A. d'Eictbal, Re gent of the Bank of France ; E. Pereira, Director of the St. Germain Railroad Company; A.Thurneyssen, banker; Caillard, sen.; A.

Punch. t%IONEY and COMIER( lAL NEW CITY, QUARTER TO THREE The accounts received by the Cambria are generally con• sidered at Liverpool to be in favour of cotton advancing in price. The market yesterday was consequently very grin. About 8,000 bags wer,i sold, 2.000 being on iTecula,ion, at full nriePs. There wai a large business doing sh,.res, at good prices. he aecults from America are of chief interest in connec tion with political matters, and what will be the upshot of the Mexican quarrel few can determine. State securitie: have brightening prospects, it would seem, from the following : " A few years will suffice to create in the public mind a confidence in American securities, almost as great as ever existed, but this confidence will not lead capitalists into the extravagant loans heretot'ore so easily obtained by specu lators from the United States. Our State stocks are daily improving as securities fur permanent investment, and as such hold out great inducements to the capitalists of Europe, on account of the high rate of interest compared with the stock investments of other countries. The bankruptcy that have overtaken many of the States of the Union will ultimately have a favourable effect upon the whole. The delinquency of a few has operated as a check upon the others, and com pelled them to pause in the financial policy they were pur suing. Had the extravagant expenditures made for several years by many of the States been continued a little longer, or had not some of them been overtaken T. ith insolvency as they were, many of the States that have by the most rigid economy, and an abandonment of expenditures upon their public works, been able to promptly meet the interest on their debts, would have become bankrupt and fallen with the others. A few were sacrificed to preserve the rest. Had the States of New York and Ohio gone on a short time longer in the course they were pursuing when the revulsion came and swept away those cf less strength and more limited resources, they must inevi tably have been swallowed up in the storm, and have ranked with Pennsylvania, Maryland, and other delinquent States. It was only with the greatest difficulty they were able to weather the storm, and only by the exercise of the greatest skill in the :management of their finances have they been able to sustain their credit." The market for the English Stocks has been rather de pressed to-day again, on account of the warlike tenor of the news from Mexico. Consols have receded to 99 and 98 3 % for present transfer, and to 99 1 / s and 99 for account. Ex chequer-bills have been at 475. to 495. premium. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 102 1 ,% to V t , and the Threrper Cents. 99% to N. Bank Stock is worth 211% to 212%, and East India Stock 271. There is not a large business doing. The most sensitive: foreign investment at the present moment is necessarily Mexican, which has been at a decline of 3j4 to 1 1 / s per cent. on yesterday's value—viz., to 33 3 / 4 and 33. Spanish Stock is nominal, the Five per Cents. being 271 %, and the Three per Cents. 38 1 / 4 to %. Peruvian Bonds are 39. The market for Railway Shares has not been affected to any extent by the partial reaction in the Funds. The new lines, however, all seem to come out at a fair premium, and some of the companies which are recoestituting themselves for a fresh struggle eext session, find good support, notwith standing the expense incurred, and which, in some cases, is less than might have been supposed. The North Kent Com pany have re-issued their shares, and the list below wili show that the shareholders have not lost confidence. The Dublin and Galway Company too, which, but for mismanagement, must have obtained its Act last year, is profiting by experience, and besides a thorough weeding out of the doubtful subscribers or applicants, will benefit by the delay, if we may judge by the advises from Dublin, in con 7 sequence of having leisure and onportunny to lay out a per fect line. i❑ which work Sir J. Nl 4 Neil and an immense num ber of assistants are said to be now engar,ed. The railway is a most important one for the sister kingdom, and receive. , such countenance there as must, with common prudence, wt should think, render it entirely independent of mere specu lators and premium-hunters. The shares of - the old corn panies.are much the same to-day, and those of the new line: have been in some instances higher. PRICES OF BRITISH FUNDS.

AUGUST 29, 1845. The accounts of Sir WILLIAM MOLES WORTH'S canvass are most gratifying ; and but that, while two Liberal candidates are in the field, every possible exertion must be continued, and expressions of confidence might in duce inactivity, we believe his election to be certain. Mr. Marplot MIALL will repent his refusal to retire or to submit with ►Sir WILLIAX MOLESWORTH to a ballot o? the Liberal electors, when such a step would have been an act of grace ; and Mr. Protestant FILCHER, whose only hope of success has arisen from Mr. MIALL'S intru . will have to thank his brother anti-Maynoothian only for leading him into the expense of an unsuccessful c mtest, which, but for Mr. MALL, would have been all along utterly hopeless. It is a funny state of things, when the Government candidate is the opponent of the Government policy, and the candidate whom the Government oppose is the eulogist of their measures, and owes his only difficulties to befriending the measures of the Government whose organs vilify him. Yet such is the state of things in Southwark. Mr. FILCHER is the Government candidate, and Anti-Maynooth is his war-cry. Sir WILLIAM MOLEs. WORTH defends Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Maynooth Endowment measure, and for his pains is turned upon by one of his own party, Mr. MIALL, whom the Government organs try to prove better than Sir WIL LIAM MOLESWORTII, knwiing that every vote gig en by a L;boral to TALL, will be a vote in aid of FILCHER. But fumy things have ceas►'d to be funny under the reign of PEEL ; and however funny the state of the Southwark candidates, it is now by no means singular. W , st Kent would not hear of a Tory candidate sup porting the Government measures, and sent up CAonel AUSTIN to swell Sir ROBERT PEEL'S numbers- in faction-fights, but to oppose his Irish and commercial policy. West Suffolk has done the same. Mr. KERRISON was to come forward as a Peelite. father represents Eye ; onA brother-in-law, Lord HEN NIKER, sits for the eastern division of Suffolk ; and another brother-in-law, Lord MARON, is a distinguished , upporter of Sir ROBERT PEEL. But Mr. KERRISON, with all his powerful connexion, would not g ► down in IVeat Suffolk, and Mr. BENETT was returned to pro t► ct. agriculture and the Church agu.in,t Sir ROBERT PEEL. But Mr. %NETT and, Colonel AUSTIN both sit - S ig7 5 ,„, , , • , , --- -.---w xr ~..., Itt," _At, 0 ,'C. , '•3 4 It 'oft • i•;:k,-,11 ' } -.,_ t, :." -1 -. '/• .4' , ' i' ~ ,Cti' N 4 ,, . , ~„,,,, A.

The accounts which have reached us this week from nearly all of our wheat growing districts, but more particularly from the southern and western conLties, are, on the whole, of a favourable character. In Essex: Kent, Hampshire, De vonshire, tie., large quantities of wheat have been tarried In in good condition. North of the Humber, ';'ery little wheat has, as yet, been cut. duce Monday the arriN-418 of `Wheat of home produce for our market have exhibited dfalling off, compared with those reported in several previot.'s weeks, nevertheless they have proved seasonably large. Ale a•,;:lecula tive purch aseA having been effected in this article on Wedni:Y last, the show of samples here to-day was by no means large; yet fully adequate to meet. the wants of the buyers. On the whole, the factors were firm, and would not submit to lower terms; "consequently, very little business was transacted, 'lt unaltered figures, and a clearance was not effected. The duty on Foreign Wheat having remained stationary at IBs, very few parcels have been entered for home consumption this week. For every description—free as well as in bond — the sale was very dull, yet prices were unaltered. The im ports have amounted to 7,880 quarters. We had a very limited show of Barley, the sale for which was tolerably steady, at previous figures. There was an increased supply of Malt offering, yet the sale for it was steady, at very full prices. A very large import of Oats has taken place from &road, viz., 26,200 quarters; but from our own coasts, as also from Ireland, scarcely any par cels came fresh to hand. The Oat trade was extremely in active, and previous rates were barely supported. Beans, Peas, and Flour moved off slowly, at unaltered figures. We had a few parcels of new Seeds offering, in fair condition. The Seed trade ruled dull, yet prices were not lower. The accounts respecting the Seed crops are somewhat more fa vourable. ARRIVALS.

The supply of Beasts on offer was, for the tittle of year, moderately extensive, but of middling quality. For all kinds the demand ruled heavy, and Monday's prices wore with difficulty supported. From Holland we received 66 Beasts, 60 Sheep, and 24 Calves ; from Scotland 100 Scots, mostly in fair condition. The number of Sheep were larger by 1,000 than those exhibited on this day se'unight. The Mutton trade was very dull, and the rates had a downward tendency. In Lambs, next to nothing was doing, at a de pression of 2d per Blbs. Calves moved off slowly, at late rates.

COLLISION AT SEA.—This was an action brought t o recover compensation for damages done to the City of London steamer during a collision at sea. Mr. tY.IMES appeared for the plaintiff, and stated the case. The plaintiffs were owners of the above vessel. which was a fine iron steamer, trading between Aber. deem and London, and was nearly a new vessel, having only made eight voyages. The damage for which com pensation was now sought occurred during the only part of the morning of t h e B t h of llovembec last. When off Orfordness, the watch on board the steamer perceived a collier brig, or snow, bearing dowi upon her larboard bow at a spanking rate. It was ah u; two o'clock and hazy. The helm of the City of Londot was ported, which we nal have prevented the calli-io: had the brig not alter( d her course. The brig wa cane.' the opring. He would ask the jury it some of them lap not observed that colders passing Gravesend did not g at a greater rate, ar.d more carelessly, than any tithe' vessel ? Colliers having discharged their cargo wee. back with only just sufficient ballast for the sail they intended to carry, and it was pretty welt that homeward• bound colliers sacrificed almost everything to expedition, tied there etas a wealthy club, which paid all damage done or suffered by them. Tne defendant had not denied his carelessness, and wil fulness was not imputed ; the only question was the amount of damage sustained. It would be proved that a proper watch had been kept onboard the City of Lon don, but that when she was run into the wizen-mast was knocked and the rigging of the jib-boom in jured ; the brig was also greatly damaged, as she was going with a free wind, and the steamer was going with great impetus, although the steam had been shut off. The ultimate consequence was, that the collier sunk whilst being towed into Harwich by the City of London, and, unfortunately, from some acci dent, one of the crew of the • collier was lost. The da mage done to the vessel wss not the only loss sustained, as the insurance had to be paid, and the crew who were attached to the vessel were useless for 15 days, and one voyage was lost. It would be shown that her average net profits had been 2881. per voyage, and her latter voyages had . prod uce d 3501. The Learned Counsel then called several witnesses to prove that a survey of the vessel had been made by order of the magistrates at Aberdeen, and that the damages were up wards of 2004 She had been struck about fifty feet from the stem on the larboard side. The secretary and clerks to the Aberdeen Steam Navigation Company proved the vessel belonged to the Company, and the profit, as stated by the Learned Counsel. Captain Curgill admitted that they had been mu into about an hour before the accident complained of, but the hull of the vessel did not touch ; there was merely a slight injury done to the rigging. Mr. nut then addressed the jury for the defendants, and, in the first instance, submitted that the plaintiffs were only entitled to nominal damages, as the vessel occasioning the damage had gone to the bottom. He contended that this was according to the maritime law. Mr. JAMES—That is in cases where the action is brought against the ship. The SECONDARY was of opinion that this objection did not apply to this case. - Mr. FISH said he could hardly expect the Learned Secondary to decide in his favour in such a point, as it was one which must in either case come before the court above, and the defendants had been well advised. The point being held against him he should to the jury on the question of damage;. Survey°. s apl ointed by prop- r authority had been examined. end he did not intend for au instant. to question their judginelit, but he would leaveTt to the jury wh..ther m. re damage had been dune by the first collision than had been given in evidence. Then, again, there was a charge tor the loss of the voyage, al though another vessel had been put on. 56Z was also charged for the crew, who had been banging about Aber deen when they could have hevn put on the extra vessel. Mr. JAMES said they were i-ng,geil th, that The SECONDARY summed up, an,l said the question was ent&rely for the jury. The jury, after a short deliberation, gave a general verdict for 2511.

SPORTING IN'VELLIGENCE. - (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) The York Meeting fully repaid those who toots the trouble to visit it. .The attendance was much larger than usual, and the fields of horses were more numerous and of a better calibre thaa has been seen of late years. The result of the Great Yorkshire Stakes clearly showa that the Oaks was a more correct run race than the Derby—Annandale, the second in the latter race, being nowhere, a hile Miss Sarah, the third in the former race, beat the Goodwood mare by four lengths, and was, therefor., justly raised to toe distinguished rank of first favourite fur the St. Leger. As I like to take credit to ,nyself when suecessful in iny predictions, I am not the less ashamed to own that in this race I was most corn plewly out in my calculations, Annandale and Jingle i lot tht: two last in the race. But as I stated, my reason for fancying them was on account of their public unning, and from " always adopting that alone as the f ululation of opinion, which has been so frequently correct during the Loofahs, that I trust I shall not con d em ned by ,my readers.

The Prince of Wales' Stakes. as I fancied, brought rl capital field to the post, and the race was won by that fortunate sportsman, Mr. Ramsay, with his colt Mal combe, in such a manner as to raise still higher the hopes of the Midlothian party for the great northern race. The Liverpool Luminary was completely extinguished to-day, and her numerous friends burnt their fingers smartly by touching her. The other races call for no particular observation. Sweetmeat's match with IV' heritress was a nearer thing than many imaginto it would be, and it required all Nat's fine riding to wititk a head. Tho entries for the Egham Meeting were of so in ferior a calibre, and the horses engaged in the different stakes having met so often, that any person taking the sliehtest interest iv, raeino w must hive been quite u, well I aware of their qualities as myself, I thou g ht I would not take up the space in your paper, or the patience of your readers, by recapitulating them. The Warwick Meeting commences on Tuesday next with a rather thin list; still, however, from the aura** tions that the place holds out, and from the fact of there generally being some important alteration in the St. Leger betting, the betting men are sure to visit it in great force. The meeting commences, ns most meetings generally do, with a trial stakes, for whiciz the entries close to morrow. We then have the Guy Produoie Stekes, to which there are eight subseribers. Of the :nit-oats engaged in the race, three are from t'ee &oek bridge/ stable, and the property of that lucky twe year-old gentleman, Mr Wreford ; and ae bee elite) vvon this stake, I think it most likely that one of Eis lot will be foleod superior to the field.

To Wed- Oitig Dey and (Gwaltoe I think I must assign this raele, with a preference for the former. Next comes the Lea:elegem &eke-, which excites less ;11tetiot than usual in the e eerthig world, probably on ...ccouot of the tiz Leese- eettifee extending over such g large field of tirses. Few naadizaps have furnished tatter races than this has done. Last year Lord Exeter won it with Algernon, beating Advice,- another three year-old, and a good field, by a head. In 1843 Mr, Perth won it with that game three-year-Ad .eating Gret•nfificti and I,lllly Banks. I doubt, how,ver, 1 a three-) esreold call to found to fhlloa- their example :iii this .ccasion. The acceptaf c-a are seventeen in aid (eel:menet, wite eel Genuine, who has been favoured by the hentheapper with 9st., and altheugn he ride been running about the country se much lately, ete I think he will be found better than many that are left in. His forte is exactly two miles, and no further. Lord Warwick's Yardley, Bst. 61b., comes next under my eye. He is a useful sort of horse, but with Bst. 61b. I imagine will find the course too far for him by a quar ter of a mile. • For the Wolverhampton Stakes, with 7st. Silt.. Glossy at the same weight beat him a length. Of Mr. Meik lam's powerful lot, two only have been left in,. vis e Trueboy and Freeman. Of these the former is a useful sort of horse, and can, when he likes, run extremely well ; but his temper lately seems to have entirely spoilt him, and he wont run a yard. The latter horse's pretensions chiefly rest upon winning a plate at Chester, beating, after four heats, Lord Stanley's Psalmsinger, winner of tl-e Stewards' Cup at Goodwood, and of the two, I must say, I prefer Freeman infinitely. Roderick, the second for the Goodwood Stakes, with 7st. 91b., must be a very different animal from the Ro derick, with 6st. 111 b., that I recommended to public attention for that great race. With the present weight upon him, I think his chance a most slender one. Lightning, 7st. 71b. seems to run worse and worse on every occasion he comes out. I think he has been too much hacked about to be successful here. I now come to my old favourite Glossy, who, were she to run on the terms imposed upon her by the handicap per originally, would, I have not the least doubt, turn out the winner. But, as she has to carry 10Ib. extra for winning at Paisley and elsewhere, and having so favour ably run •at Doncaster for the Great Yorkshire Handi cap, I doubt if she will start ; if she does, hoWever, I think, even with the extra weight, there will be nothieg found to beat her, unless it is Pythia. Mr. Peel's Jack Sheppard, with 7st., is cursed, like Truehoy, with a temper that makes .it datigerous for anybody to trust him with a sixpence ; added to which, he is a horse of a very mediocre character. Mr. Clifton's Nottiegham (the Mundig co!t, purchased at the stiff price of 1,000 guineas) is very faveintOdy at 6 to 12, and ought to take a good dial of teetiek I extact that he will be found very hued . ). at the finish. Rochester belongs to a gentleman who has won many a race on this ceurse, but I do not imaeine the Leetninsrer Stakes for 1845 he ~rill be able to count among them.

Wee Pet, with 6.1 t. 81b., cannot follow Algernon's example last year. Old George's, Elixir's, and Glendower's prospects of winning I should pronounce hopeless.
