CALUD ON lAN. A numerous and influential meeting of the 101. Preference shareholders of this company took place yesterday afternoon, at the London Tavern,lßishops gate-street, for the purpose of naming a deputation to the board of directors on the subject of reducing the preferential claims, and of considering the recommen dation to elect delegates representing the 101. Prefe rence shareholders, to confer with the directors and conclude an arrangement. Captain PLUNKET, RN., having taken the chair, said that, considering the state of the affairs of the company, it was of the utmost importance that some thing should be immediately done to get those con cerned in it out of their present bad position. The amount of claims against the company was 570,000/., and of this sum 107,0001. were what were called land claims, and which, by the law of Scotland, were im mediately enforceable in the most summary manner, and which must consequently be met at oace. leen supposing the greatest possible patience were exemplified by their creditors, it would require seven or eight years to place themselves in a satisfactory position. Another debt of a most serious character was the Clydesdale redemption money, which, added to the floating debt, would make it ten or fifteen years before matters were made straight. Yet this was taking the most favourable view of their situation—so favourable, indeed, that he would argue nothing from it, as in his opinion the only way of keeping the company on its legs would be by raising fresh capital. The guarantees, which had been so rashly sanctioned by Parliament, were of such enormous extent that they could be no longer paid by the company without mulcting all prior claimants ; and as the idea of pay ing the guarantees " for the credit of the company," was a manifest exemplification of " robbing Peter to pay Paul," he did not suppose that such an argument would be used against the urgent demands of the directors for reduction. The statement put forth by the present board of directors said that the be looked forward to were a week ; but th e exac t a v era ge , taken from the c o m menc ement of the year, was a receipts 6soot that might weekly income of 5, 831 1. ; and their receipts might be severely influenced by the opening in autumn of the Nithsdale competing line. He concluded by moving the appointment of a committee such as whose duties would be to consider the affairs of the company, and such documents, &c., as it would be at once inconvenient and disagreeable to publish to the world at a public meeting ; to negotiate with the di rectors—to hear their reasons for the proposed reduc tions, arid to consider .whether the arrangements were for the advantage of the shareholders. The principal benefit arising from the appointment of such a committee would be, that it would give the first impulse to those arrang emen t s which now engage the attention and e nergies of the director s , ai d the example of a cheerful acquiescence in a necessary but disagreeable duty on the part of the shareholders, would greatly influence their operations, serve as the best weapon in the bands of the directors for the suc cessful prosecution of their objects.—(Cheers.) In answer to questions, The CHAIRMAN stated that negotiations had been entered into with all of the preference lines. Several gentlemen addressed the meeting on the c subj p ec a tofthe resolution and the general affairs of the company ; After which the resolution, with one or two emen dations, was put and carried. It stood amended as follows :—" That a committee be now appointed on behalf of preference stock (10/. shares) of the Caledo nian Railway Company, with power to confer with the directors of the company in refer ence to a modification of the terms under which the preference shares were issued, and to negotiate an arrangement for such a modification of those terms as they may think most advantageous—contingent on satisfactory arrangements being concluded with the other guaran teed interests; such arrangements to be subject to the approval of an adjourned meeting of the general body of preference shareholders." The committee appointed was composed of th e fol lowing gentlemen :—Mr. Thornton (Wakefield), Mr. Joseph Hough (Manchester), Mr. A. K. Baker, Mr. Deputy Corney, and Mr. Balster. After a vote of thanks to the Chairman , the meeting adjourned till that day w eek, when the committ e e would be able to report progress. The first sitting of the committee was held after the meeting had separated. ft er ;tea $1 6 of ge' S P i 0 ]er b $ Lo d t cot. „,f. otesal or oner, p* of pi .o c Ar 0 00l‘' being th d bim obo e o sis being c 1 : 1 01 of 0 30 relf P re e o o self. c ur kined is I 0 0 otes. 1 Pr L robber , s station :ea I f their roe , ard the be rt° 0 ' ;save, LW of 6814 11 be fog "t r ') :SPA [LE pit of run faunab TO THE SECRETARY OF THE BRADFORD REFORM ASSOCIATION. Sir,—On Monday the 6th, long debate on the question of recommitting the Australian Colonies Government Bill with the object of inserting addi tions depriving the Government at home of the power of a Veto on colonial legislation. It was admitted by the movers, that there were certain things which by the colonial legislatures must not be done ; and the weakness of their case lay, in the impossibility of effectually securing these by any attempted defini tion. There are things which must not be done, and nobody can tell what may be among them till it is seen. Such at least was probably the reasoning, which induced a majority of 165 to 42 against the motion. And in truth there appears no palpable reason, why a Veto on the part of the Crown under the advice of its Ministers, should not be continued in the Colonies as long as in the mother country. Useful lessons may be taken for practice in the one case, from the practice in the other. It is clearly p o li c y th a t th e exercise of such a Veto should be avoided by all sorts of precautionary prudences ; and if it cannot be so absolutely avoided in the smaller case as it has been for the last century or two in the greater, some diffe rence may fairly be set down to the different circum stances of the two. Without entering into details disparaging or flattering to any party, it is not diffi cult to see reasons in the necessary circumstances of colonies, why a last resort to a Teto under the con trol of the Imperial Government and Parliament, may usefully exist in their case, even though not exerted for the major part of two centuries at home. After this came a debate on numerous Clauses pro posed by Mr. Gladstone, connected with the position of the Church of England in the Australian Colonies. The supporters of them never got over the impres sion produced by their own exertions, that there was at this moment an equality among religious bodies in Australia, and these clauses were to overset it. It the restrictions imposed by law upon the Church of England are really such as to prevent its clergy from asking one another whether they think it best to sing a psalm before sermon or after, it is here and not in the colonies that alteration should be moved. But the truth is, that the compact made by the State with the Church which it established, and which the said Church is now doing all it can to call into hostile operation against itself, evinced a laudable conscious ness of, the necessity of controlling any Establishment which was to have the powers and revenues contem plated, with a bitt of no ordinary sharpness. It knew that it was mounting a rampant entero, which no sane man would think of riding in a halter. And this with no reference to the peculiarities of the indi vidual, but of the genus ; opinions on the real pre sence had about as much to do with it, as whether there was a long tail or a short. For reasons of this kind, it may be that the Church finds itself under a sharper dispensation than is applied to the lower in flesh roadsters by its side. But the question of tak ing it off, must not be settled in the Colonies. In the course of the debate, a Member of the Cabinet, the Secretary for the Home Department, took occasion to express strong disapprobation of the course at this moment taken by a considerable por tion of the Church, in a direction which though not very pointedly expressed in words, nobody feels at a loss to comprehend. Oa the 7th, motion was made for the Repeal of the Advertisement Duty. The circumstances were never promising, and as might be expected, nothing was accomplished. The whole subject is one which waits for coming events to make its interest confessed. After the Advertisement Duty, came the question of a Committee for the Bakers. It is a very doubtful point whether the interference of Government in such cases can be usefully applied or not; but there appe ars n o marked reason why, if the working class es w i s h it, their case should not be inquired into by a Com mittee. The proposal, however, was negatived by a large majority. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, AN OLD REFORMER.

FRASER. On his way to the House of Commons on Monday night Mr. W. J. Fox met with an accident which will pre vent him from attending to his Parliamentary duties for some days. METROPOLITAN RAILWAY JUNCTlON.—Yesterday the Master in Chancery Kindersley proceeded with the settle ment of this list of contributories liable to pay all the out standing claims of this concern, the assets in connexion with which are reported to be about 3001. Fraser opens with an elaborate Shakesperian study by George Fletcher, the subject of the present paper is the Merchant of Venice. The Quarterly Reviewer, who attacked the Queen's College and Pro lesror Maurice stigmatizing that gentleman and his friends as Pantheists and Latitudinarians, is merci lessly castigated by Fraser, and richly does he deserve it. We have a most delightful article on the fables of Babrius, which have been recently discovered in a monastry in Greece, and which have been care fully edited by Mr. G. C. Lewis.; Babrius was a Greek poet, who flourished it is supposed about the time of the Emperor Alexander Severns, and who then "wrote this series of fables in Greek verse, which for elegance, sim plicity, and poetry, are superior either to Yhtedrus or LaFontaine. The " Story ot the Requiem" is a strange tale, which, if true, would seem to show that Mozart died from poison, administered to him by a mercenary musician who had managed to possess himself of the latest works of that composer; we, however, attach no credit to this narrative. Fraser promises a series of articles on Diplomacy, Diplomatists, and the Diplomatic Servants of England ; and in the opening paper, which appears in the present number, insists on the necessity of Englishmen receiving a regular diplomatic education before they are entrusted with the exercise of diplomatic functions as the only means of enabling them to compete with the masters in ambassador-craft of France, Germany, and Russia, There are several other papers of merit in this month's Fraser. m wh e t room, 0 very qu lo l l L vi ed to leave tnes o coo t 3hsrge• 51 s t e aliog g tr it was 9 TUE WEATHER.—The daily mean reading of the barometer at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, was above 30 inches on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Fri day ; the mean of the past week was 30.040 deg. The mean temperature of the week was only 45.5 deg.. Taking, for comparison, the ten corresponding weeks of 1840-9, there is no instance in which the mean temperature was equally low, for it ranged in these weeks from 47.4 deg. to 55.8 deg., the mean having been 52.6 deg. It was on every day of the week considerably less the average of the same in seven years. On Sunday it.was less than the average by 6.7 deg. ; on Thursday, by S deg.; and on Wednesday by 9.7 deg. Except on Friday and 6aturday, the wind blew from the north and north-east. -- to in • rePlf to e t four I 1 ling e l ' a of Le ago ten S he her ge lle ol 0 Since uld w o_ . 4 the c hart; t ae u pon 0 but as. fr3o .harge It your, means suit not with your ends, pursue ,hose, ends which suit with your means.— Eliza Cook's Journal. rot efi se. ;0 0 as notb 6t as not ; til child SCOTTISH EVENING AT THE WALWORTH INSTI TUTION.—The popular Scotch vocalist, Mr. Sherer, gave one of his entertainments on the Songs of Scotland at the Walworth Literary Institution last evening. His songs were prefaced by numerous humorous historical anec dotes, which he narrated most effectively. Mr. Sherer is an excellent contour. His execution of the beautiful Scotch melodies was admirable, and elicited enthusiastic ap plause from a numerous and respectable audience. Air.

(accompanied by his brother, Mr. Barrow, of the Admiralty), is expected to attend, for the purpose. We are glad to find that the subscriptions to the testimonial already amount to upwards of 1,0001., and to notice, among the more recent subscribers, several additional names of the nobility and gentry : - the Duke of Beaufort, 5/. ; the Earl of Lonsdale, 5/. ; Sir James Graham, 10'. 10s. ; the Earl of Ripon, 5/. ; the Marquis Camden, 5/. ; Viscount Palmerston, 5/, Sc. The design selected by the Committee is that of Mr. Andrew Trimen, architect, whose elaborate work upon Church and Chapel Architecture, together with an account of the Hebrew Church, may be known to some of our readers. The stone tower designed by him is to be 100 feet in height, by 40 feet in diameter at the base; and as this structure is to 1),! erected on the Hill of Iload, which rises immediately above the town of Ulverstone, to the height of 450 feet, the effect will be striking. The tower will serve as a sea mark for the navigation of the dangerous bay of Morecambe, and will also, in all probability, be the means of saving the lives of many persons in crossing the sands at Ulverstone. Pre parations, we understand, to a great extent are i n p r og r ess at Ul ver stone, every one, from the highest to the lowest, being anxious to vie with his neighbour in showing their respect to the memory of their distinguished townsman. MONEY MARKET. —The premium on gold at Paris is 17i per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. lOid. per ounce for standard gold, gives an ex change of 25.59; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25.57 k, it follows . that gold is 0.00 p er c,-nt. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh the price cf gold is 4354 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. Mid. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13.108; and the ex change at ilamburgh on London at shore being 13.11, it follows that gold is 0.29 per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburgh. INGENIOUS SWINDLING.—On Saturday the police succeeded in apprehending a man, named Joseph Cash Gib son, who for some time past has been engaged, with others not yet in custody, in a very ingenious swindle. It appears that the parties have been in the habit of sending to auction rooms, for sale, c ases o f very handsome medals and coins, finely finished to represent gold. The matter was discovered by Mr. Thomas, the auctioneer in Leicester-square, in the following way :—A few evenings ago Gibson called upon Mr. Thomas, and produced several cases of medals, which he re presented as gold, and asked Mr. Thomas whether he would sell them for him? Mr. Thomas applied the usual tests to the rims, and, believing they were gold, he agreed to sell them, and gave Gibson a deposit. From some circumstances which afterwards came to his knowledge, Mr. Thomas was induced to test the coins on the obverse and reverse, and he then discovered that they were only electrotyped. Mr. Thomas immediately waited upon the Commissioners of Po lice, who sent Mr. Field, an expert officer of the detective force, to investigate the matter. Mr. Field at once had one of the medals broken up, and he then discovered that it had been most ingeniously made. The inside was of iron, the next layer was of copper, then a thin coat of silver, and the top and bottom gold; the rims were also gold. Some of them were much larger than a crown piece. From the de scription given of Gibson, Mr. Field succeeded in appre hending him. Many of the medals have been pledged for as much as 101., although they are not worth more than 4s. — Sunday riper. ARTISTS' GENERAL BENEVOLENT INSTITUTION: — The thirty-fifth anneal festival of this excellent institution, which was instituted in 1814, for the relief of decayed artists, their widows and children, and which has been the means of saving the families of many talented but unfortunate artists from ruin, will take place on Saturday next, at the Free masons"favern, when, as is usua l at these festivals, there will be congregated together all the greatest of our livi ng artists, and all the most influential and di•criminating of the patrons of art.

IRON ►SHIP-BUILDING IN CORK.—At the close of this month the largest vessel ever built in Ireland will be launched from the stemn•factory of the Cork Steam Ship Company, on the Glanmire-road. She is to be called the Pelican, and is to be propelled by the screw. She is over BCO tons burden, and is built on the lines of the Ajax, which is declared the best steam-ship afloat of her class. The boilers, steam-engines, screw, and fans intended for the Peli can, are nearly completed, and will be ready to be placed on board the day she is launched. This vessel is intended to trade between Liverpool and Rotterdam.—Cork constitution. r , 0I ' l'l l 3* 1 0 1 0 64 ( THE SPORTSMAN. In addition to the usual statistical information re lative to spurting matters afforded by thi s periodical, the present number contains some articles of a very entertaining nature. " A Few Thou g ht s on the Noble Science" shows the writer to be a man well acquainted with his subject.

And again, " This pink, by the way, is a great attrac tion ; banish it, and you would draft a third of every hunting field, especially at some fashionable watering places I could mention, where the great object seems to be, not to have a good day's sport, but to return in time to show the hunting costume on the evening promenade."

To some illustrations of the calumniated idiosyncracy of the fox in the latter paper we would invite the attention of the reader. " Tales of the Itoad" are, however, to our mind, the best papers which lotve appeared in this serial, rich in jollity and the genuine smack of Irish fun.

His carol f " Saint Patrick and the Heathens," surely by Father Phil, to the air of " The Night before Larry was Stretched" would have rejoiced the soul of poor Alagin. AMERICAN NEWS. SOUTHAMPTON, TUESDAY NIGHT. The United States mail steamer, Hermann, Cap tain Crabtree, arrived off Cowes at 5 P.M. from New York, which city she left on the 20th ult. The voy age of the Hermann has been protracted to 17 days by a succession of easterly winds. She brings 145 passengers, 25 of whom landed at Southampton. After transferring the mails for England and France to a small steamer, the Hermann proceeded on her voyage to Bremen. The American news by telegraph from Halifax was published in New York on the 20th. The intelligence by this arrival is not of great interest. Our Washin g t on a d v i ces ment i on th at t h e S enate had rejected Col one l I3 enton ' s amen d ment, an d deter mined to refer the subj ec t o f a d m itti ng C a lif orn i a an d forming a territorial government for New Mexico to a select committee of 13. The committee comprised Senators Clay, Cuss, Dickinson, Bright, Webster, Philps, Cooper, King, Mason, Downes, Mag num, Bell, and Berrien. The action of such a committee would probably be a re commendation to admit California, and the establish ment of a Government in New Mexico, without restriction as to slavery ; the Senate would probably, concur, but there were substantial grounds for believ ing that no such measure would become law. A disgraceful scene occurred in the Senate on the 17th ult., when, during the heat of an altercation in debate, General Foote drew a pistol from his pocket, cocked it, and coolly directed his aim at Mr. Benton. The friends of both parties interposed, and bloodshed . was prevented, a n d a comm ittee to investigate into the circumstances was appointed. The rumours of a modification in the Cabinet had somewhat died away. Accounts from St. Louis of the 19th ult. state that a band of Si oux I n di ans , h ea d e d by their chief, had recently attacked a family of Chippewa', num bering fourteen persons, at Falls Croix, and murdered them all. In the money-market sterling exchange was in re quest, and bills on London had an upward tendency, the quotations being 109/ to 109; ; money easier, and a supply of money on call more plentiful. First-class paper was much sought after. United States stocks were very firm, notwithstanding the efforts made to depress prices. The cotton market continued firm, with fair sales in separate lots. Dealers were still disposed to wait for the receipt of later foreign news before entering the market to any considerable extent. The market for New York and Western flour con tinued firm, with a good Eastern demand, and a fair amount of sales. Canadian remained about the same with moderate sales. Southern was less active, and prices were somewhat easier. Wheat was in good demand. Corn continued scarce. Prices had an up ward tendency. _ _ Pork was firmer, and sales were freely made at im proving prices. Beef continued dull, but meats were steady. Lard was firmer, with moderate sales. Good butter was scarce, and firm. Cheese was in good demand, and firm. Coffee was steady, with fair sales. Sugar continued steady, with fair sales, including New Orleans and Porto Rico. Molasses:were with out change of moment. PHILADELPHIA, APRIL 19.—Cotton is quiet, but very firm, owing to the delayed arrival of the Liver pool steamer. Flour is without much demand for export. Corn meal and rye flour remained quiet. Wheat was scarce. NEW ORLEANS, Aram 18.—Two weeks' later news from Europe being fully due has somewhat re stricted the operations in cottons, though prices con tinued firm, with an improving tendency. Middlings sold to- day at 118. The total sales are '2,000 baler. There is more firmness in corn, and the market is buoyant. The feeling in flour is still downward. Coffee steady, with fair inquiry. The New York Herald states that negotiations are going forward for an annexation of the island of St. Domingo to the United States. The project is said have been favourably ♦iewed by the Cabinet for the purpose of gaining popularity. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, MAY 7.—The value of steamers for the transport of troops or the munitions of war has been strikingly exhibited during the past week by the voyage between this and Devonport, of her Majesty's iron steam-frigate Birkenhead, Commander J. A. Stevens. On Saturday morning, at five o'clock, she arrived at Devonport, landed the left wing of the 4th Foot (em barked here the previous afternoon), and all their bag gage, took in the left wing of the 28th, and sailed again at being only four hours in making the transfer of 900 persons, and arrived with them here at five A.at. on Sunday. She proceeds next to Ireland on similar duty. The Stromboli steam-sloop, Commander Lord Aure lius Beauclerck, is under orders to proceed to Scotland to navigate the Greenoch steam-ship to Devonport for commission. The Sealark, 8, Commander Moneypenny, is return ing her last stores alongside the jetty, and will be paid off on Thursday. _ _ The Comet ;team-vessel was recommissioned here day by Commander H. C. Otter for surveying service. ♦PPOINTMENTS. Commander—Henry C.

Since our last publication, accounts have reached us from all parts of the country of th e f a il ures wh i ch h a ve befallen the agitators. Mr. Goode's reply to the Bishop of Exeter is re garded, generally, as crushing in point of argument, although the great body of the Church clergy will probably dissent from the personal views of both the Bishop and his opponent. Mr. Maskell's testimony to the existence of many open questions in the Church of England, as coming from an unwilling witness, is also most valuable : we refer to his :correspondence with the Archbishop, who is considered to have made rather too liberal allowance of what a man may hold, 113 regards absolution and confession, together with his living?, to suit the general feeling of the Church as to the meaning of Scripture. It is only to be re gretted that the publication of such correspondence, with whatever advantage attended as indicative of the gentle and conciliatory spirit of the Archbishop, should incidentally assist the baffled party in keeping alive the agitation which is already in a rapid decline.
