TEWARK and SHEFFIELD RAILWAY, 1.1 and EXTENSION SCHEME into LINCOLNSHIRE. The Committee of Management have much pleasure in announcing that in consequence of the great and influential support they have received in Lincolnshire, as well as along the line of their original project, they will be prepared to bring forward in the next session of Parliament an integral scheme, based on the recommendation of the Board of Trade, with good gradients, and shorter than any other line projected or existing, direct from Boston to Sheffield, to be called the BOSTON, NEWARK, and SHEFFIELD RAILWAY. Engineers and Surveyors are now engaged on the proposed line, and it is confidently hoped that the enormous traffic so fully proved and admitted before the Committee of the House of Commons, in the case of the Newark and Sheffield Railway, and which will be so greatly extended by the new project, will ensure success in Parlia ment, and an ample remuneration to the Shareholders. The following gentlemen will be on the Provisional Committee, which is not yet complete, but will shortly be published with a de tailed prospectus, and include a large number of influential parties connected with the town ofßoston PROVISIONAL.

No British di plomatist ought to have lowered the moral preten sions of his country to a level with those of France in any record or notice of the proceedings of either touching the suppression of slave-trading from any date subsequent to 1807. Now this is a distinction to be never lost sight of. It raises no point of political disparagement that can give offence to France, to abstain from putting her in the same category with England, as one of the two Powers which, by the conventions of 1831 and 1833, were determined to prevent their subjects from slave-trading under their flags. The flag of England has been struck for ever in connexion with slave-trading from the year 1807. In the year 1831 that of France was notoriously and most extensively and profligately spread over this trade. Till 1831 the French Government bad manifested more than reluctance to any virtual effort to put down this shame upon the French people. For the Convention, as a treaty, we rejoice, as we shall ever do, at any other equally valid evidence of a good understanding between the two Crowns; but that Dr. LUSIIINGTON should have been inveigled into such a mode of slurring over unpleasant recollections affecting France, by degrading England into an implied (but, thank GOD, most unfounded) participation in the long-protracted criminality of the French sufferance of slave-trading, argues great tact and ability on the part of the Duc Ds BROGUE, but does not excuse the Learned Doctor for yielding to the suggestions of his flattered vanity, or his over-excited credulity. Madrid journals of the 4th instant have been received, but they bring no news of importance. The Heraldo, a Minis terial paper, announces that the French Government have permitted Don CARLOS and his consort to proceed to Greoulx, in the department of the Lower Alps ; but it adds that he will be watched there as closely as at Bourges, and that the Prince of ASTURIAS will remain in the last-named town, under surveillance. On the Madrid Bourse the Funds were flat. The Three per Cents. closed at 30 for cash, and 30% for 60 days ; and the Five per Cents. at 20% for 14 days ; Passives, 6% cash. In the French Chambers of Peers the Bill for increasing the number of French cruisers on the African coast was taken into consideration on Wednesday, when the Marquis DE BOISSY first addressed the Chamber. He considered the new treaty of a very satisfactory character, and far superior to those of 1831 and 1833, but at the same time maintained that the Government had consented to concessions that were to be regretted. He wished to know why no stipulations had been made with regard to the eastern coast of Africa. Was it with a view to favour England, that the slave trade might be carried on there for the benefit of the East India Company. He declared also that a secret treaty existed, by which France could not send more than 3,000 men to the Indian Seas. He should, therefore, be glad to have some answer from the Government on these points. The Duke DE BROGLIE said no such exception existed. The French Government could send on the eastern coast any num ber of vessels it pleased, but it had not entered into any obli gation on the point, because the right of search was not exer cised in that part of the world, the slave trade being only prac tised there under the Portuguese flag, over which England possessed certain rights, in virtue of ancient treaties. The fact was, that the eastern coast of Africa had not been included in the treaty because slavery was abolished in all the British possessions. M. GUIZOT denied the truth of the assertion of the Marquis DE Bon' relative to a secret treaty stipulating not to send more than 3,000 men to the Indian Seas. No such treaty, he said, existed, or had ever existed. The Bill was passed by a majority of 94 to 8. The intelligence in the papers is without interest, if we except the following ex tract from the Quotidienne, which relates to the fama clamosa raised-against Vicrox Iluao, with which our readers are already acquainted. The name of the married lady is not mentioned : "We have spoken with all the reserve prescribed by public decency of an event which has caused, and still causes, great sensation in Paris, and respecting which a grand trial before an exceptional tribunal was expected. The affair is arranged. A high functionary who, when he was Minister, had never a very decided taste for the policy of conciliation, has, it is said, in duced the complaining party to decline prosecuting. The Peers will not, therefore, be retained in Paris after the close of the session. The only justice that will take place will be that of public opinion." The Sud of Marseilles contains the following intelligence from Algiers, dated June 21 : " M. Leon Roche returned last night from Larache, with the Emperor of Morocco's ratification of the treaty concluded between that Sovereign's Minister and General Delarue. The arrival in the roads of three French ships of war, the Veloce, Titan, and Cygne, has promoted the arrangement, and seasonably seconded the intel ligent efforts of General Delarue, our Charge d'Affaires, M. de Chaseau, and M. Leon Roche." It is stated in a letter from Beyrout, of the 12th of June, that the Pacha was expected there on the 13th, and fears were entertained that as soon as he left the mountains the war between the Druses and Maronites would be renewed. On the Paris Bourse, on Wednesday, the Three per Cents. closed at 83f. 30c. ; ultimately the Three per Cents. closed at 83f. 30e.; the New Loan at 83f. 65e.; the Five per Cents. at 121 f. 50c.; Orleans Railroad Shares, 1,145 f. ; Rouen, 1,035 f. - Vierzon, 741 f. 25c. ; Havre, 840 f. ; A v i gnon , 957 f. 50e. ; Basle, 250 f. ; Belgian Two-and a-Half per Cents., 60i.

SALMON AND ANOTHER v. Nimmo.—ln this case, which was tried in the Sheriff's Court on the Bth, the verdict was for the defendant, but execution was delayed till next term, as stated in The Sun of that day. A Correspondent says :—" The verdict was for the defendant on the' second issue' only, and for the plaintiffb on the other issues, the Sheriff giving the plaintiffi liberty to move the court next term to set aside the defendant's verdict, on a point of law reserved, the record being stayed for that purpose." SWIMMING MATCH AT HOLBORN BATHS.—This match came off on Tuesday evening, at half.past eight o'clock, before a very crowded and respectable audience. In the first heat three competitors started—namely, Messrs. Pentus, Mr. !Poulton, and Mr. Nicholson. Mr. Pentus took the lead at the start, and kept it all through, Mr. Poulton maintaining a very good second. The second heat was between Messrs. Robertson, Turner, and Grant, which was won easily by Mr. Robertson; Mr. Turner coming in second. The final heat was contended for by Messrs. Turner, Nicholson, Robertson, and Pentus, and after a sharp contest, the latter gentleman was declared the winner of the cup, amidst loud cheering. Mr. Robinson was awarded the medal. The race was one against time, and occupied two minutes and twelve seconds. There was yesterday another of those sudden changes of weather, for which the present summer has been so remarkable. During the greater part of the night of Monday there was much thunder and lightning, with a heavy fall of rain, which lasted a great part of yesterday, and the thermometer was several degrees lower than on the preceding day.—Galignani of Wed. nesday. The eminent Roman banker, Prince Torlonia, has arrived at Milan from Rome. His journey is said to be connected with the formation of the railroads undertaken by the Italian and Austrian Railway Company. On Sunday night, about eleven o'clock, a farmer from the neighbourhood of Honfleur was caught its the storm, whilst travelling on horseback, and both man and beast were struck dead by the electric fluid. The Duke and Duchess of Nemours are expected at Libourne on August 2, to remain therejuring the 3d, and leave on the 4th for Bordeaux. The municipal council has voted B,ooof. for the entertainment of their Royal Highnesses, and the principal inhabitants intend to offer them a splendid ball. The Duke d'Au male will, it is believed, arrive at Libourne on the 3d, and pro ceed with the Duke and Duchess of Nemours, on the 4th, to Bordeaux. BIRMINGHAM, THURSDAY.—The usual meeting of the iron and coal masters of South Staffordshire and South Shrop. shire took place in our Town-hall this day. Since the last quar terly meeting, it is needless to say, the price has been very consi derably reduced. Every description of manufactured iron, within thirteen weeks, has been reduced 20 or 25 per cent. The great hope of the ironmasters is, now the price has, as they conceive, got to its lowest ebb, that the present price will remain stationary. We I do not, from all accounts, believe that it will. The railway spe culations of the midland counties, and of the entire country, now Parliament is becoming tired of the inquiries, prove to be great hoaxes to the iron -manufacturers, It is true that same masters, in anticipation of a great demand, have done well (most of them deeply involved in these speculations), but the issue will be, as an ticipated by Lords Brougham and Ashburton, that the railway mania will not only injure private speculators, but that it will be seriously injurious to the iron trade of Stafibrdshire and Wales. The attempt to supply has far outreached the probability, if not the possibility, of demand. The prices settled at Dudley, on Saturday next, will be most important to the public. DETERMINED SUICIDE AT LONDON -BRIDGE.—On Thursday night, a few minutes before eight o'clock, as a man re spectably attired was passing along London-bridge on the pathway on the eastern side, he suddenly stopped near the third recess, and threw himself over the parapet into the water. The tide was tun. ing down with extraordinary rapidity, so that before the unfortu. nate man could be reached his body had floated to a considerable distance. Just as he sunk, one of the boats neared him, but too late to save his life, as he sank to rise no more, The body of the son of Mr. Chandler, the pro prietor of the Ship, Milbank, who was drowned on Tuesday whilst endeavouring to save a man from a similar fate, was found yester day by some fishermen off the Hungerford Suspension-bridge. Yesterday morning Mr. Benjamin Blaby, the chief usher of the Thames Police-court, departed this life in the 65th year of his age. He had been attached to the old Thames police for 24 years previous to his appointment, as a " land officer." REASONABLY MAD !—The authorities of the town of Greenwich have issued a proclamation to the Neal police to destroy all wandering dogs who may be "suspected reasonably mad ;" the matter being left to the judgment of the policeman on duty. SPA -FIELD S BURIAL- GROUND.—Yesterday the arbi trator (Mr. Bramwell, barrister) commenced the hearing of evi. dente on the order of reference made on the prosecution connected with the Spa.fields burying-ground. Mr. Wakeling, the vestry clerk of Clerkenwell, attended in support of the prosecution; and Mr. Lewis, of the firm of Lewis and Lewis, represented the de. fendants. The evidence given was not allowed to be made public, nor, of course, the discussion which occurred between the parties, and which took place before any of the witnesses were called. The matter was not concluded, and the opinion of the arbitrator will be made to the Court under whose direction the order of reference was made, CouRAGE REWARDED.—On the Bth instant the General Court of the Royal Humane Society, at the recommends. tion of the Special Committee, awarded silver medallions of honour to Mr. Frederic Burd, son of the Rev. G. Burd, of Cound-lodge, near Shrewsbury, and to Henry Wood Sandford, son of the Rev. W. Sandford, incumbent of Newport, Salop, for the highly cou rageous manner in which they exerted themselves, under circum stances of extreme personal peril and difficulty, in rescuing three ladies and a gamekeeper from very Imminent danger of death by drowning in a large sheet of water on the estate of Mr, J. C. Borough, recently High-Sheriff of Shropshire, MONEY and COMMERCIAL. NEWS, CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated at 5,000 bags, including 1,000 for export and on speculation. The market was quieter, but without any other change. There was again a good business doing in Shares, and the market was firm.

There has been a ship arrival to-day from Rio de Janeiro with accounts of the 3d of May. The exchange was at 24%d., and the Six per Cents. Stock at 78. There are but one or two papers, and very few letters by this opportunity, and these add nothing of importance to our previous in formation. No news is given relative to the commercial treaty. We have more arrivals to-day from Australia, but dates are not quite so late as those already received. The particulars which have transpired relative to the job bing of certain officials in the Shares of the projected North Kent line, brought to light through the petition of the South- Eastern Railway Company, shows how the opposition to the plans of the latter has been carried on, and how little the North Kent ever was entitled to boast of the sanction of the Board of Ordnance. In standing upon its merits the South- Eastern Company, in the judgment of most parties, has best ensured the ultimate success of its comprehensive scheme for supplying the railway wants of Kent. It is gratifying to state that in addition to the subscriptions already advertised in The Sun for the relief of the sufferers by the dreadful fire at Quebec, her Majesty has subscribed 2001., Prince Albert 1001., and the Canada Company 1001. &c. No doubt the full list will appear in a day or two in another column of Time Sun. The Bank of England is likely, we hear, to give a liberal sum.

John Marshall was placed at the bar, charged with a criminal assault upon the person of Sarah Ann Strate, a child of tender years, on the 24th June last, in the house of her aunt, a washer woman, living at No. 10, Little Coram-street. Mr. O'Brien appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Ballantine for the prisoner. It appeared from the statement of counsel, that the prisoner was living in the same house with the prosecutrix and her aunt ; that upon the night laid In the Indictment the prisoner committed the offence with which he stood charged, and which would be detailed by the prosecutris. Sarah Anne Strate was then called ; her appearance created the greatest sensation; she did not appear to be more than eight or nine years old, though stated to be between ten and eleven, and of very weak and delicate frame. Having stated that she understood the nature of an oath, and was aware of the consequences that would follow a violation of it, she was sworn, and deposed that on the night in question she was alone in the house; her aunt had gone out. The prisoner came into the room and put her on the sofa, and told her not to tell, and that he would give her sixpence a week. (Here the prosecutrix described the particulars of the as sault, which were very revolting and disgusting.) The prisoner had hurt her very much and she cried out; she told Mrs. Higgins and Mrs. Parker the day after. One of them examined her and then took her to a gentleman's house, and from that she went to Worcester by the train. Cross-examined by Mr. BALLANTINE—When her aunt came in on Saturday the prisoner was present, and said, " If this charge is to be made against me, let her be examined by a surgeon ;" was examined by a surgeon. By the COURT—Is the surgeon here ? Mr. BALLANTINE-1 believe not, my Lord. Prosecutrix, then in continuation, said she had been turned away from school because she was bad, she meant by that that she would not learn the books; never mentioned at school that any one ever behaved indecently to her. Sarah Higgins sworn—Lives in the same house with prosecutrix's aunt. Remembers the 28th of June. Prosecutrix complained to her on that day and said that the prisoner had been ill-treating her. Witness and Mrs. Harper examined the child's person and found that she had been seriously injured, Police-constable James Newman deposed that he apprehended the prisoner in the house in question about one o'clock In the morning of the 29th June. One of the women present said the child had been sent away about a fortnight. The aunt said she had been sent away only that evening. Here the case closed. The prisoner's Counsel did not address any observations to the jury. The Learned JUDGE said that there was not sufficient evidence to prove the more serious offence; but he thought it would be well to remand the prisoner to the next sessions, and then have him tried for attempting a criminal intercourse with a child under the age of twelve years of age and above ten ; the prisoner to be admit ted to bail upon giving security, himself in 801., and two sureties in 401. each. ..'

Owing to press of matter we are compelled to omit the Parliamentary Summary, but it is of less importance, as with the exception of one Bill (the Irish Colleges Bill) no question of great interest was discussed. That Bill was read a third time in the Commons, and passed by one of the largest majorities of the session. Sir ROBERT INGLIS intended to have moved that it be read a third time that day three months, but was prevented, from some informality. He then contented himself with giving a simple negative, when the House divided, and there were for the third reading 177, and for the amendment only 26, giving a majority of 151. This beneficial measure is therefore safe. The House of Lords will pass it by a majority equally triumphant, and we confidently trust that both parties in Ireland will give it a fair trial, and lend their aid in the great cause of education. The debate on Tuesday night last on the objects, the terms, and the effect of the Convention recently concluded between Great Britain and France for the better suppression of the slave: trade was opened by a speech from Lord PALMERSTON, certainly one of the most able that was ever delivered in con nexion with the general question of negro slavery, within the walls of Parliament. It was :by no means faultless indeed ; for in some essential particulars we must consider it to have been deficient in candour towards his political op ponents ; and as to others, in that cardinal excellence of legislative oratory—political discretion. With these allow ances or deductions, it was still a brilliant and masterly ad dress, admirable for its comprehensive views—its condensed statements of facts and documentary evidence scat tered through many volumes of sessional papers, returns, and reports. It gave a lucid but appalling account of the unmitigated—perhaps, aggravated—atrocities of this hideous traffic as it exists at this moment, not only on the western but on the eastern coasts of Africa. It was a generous, elo quent, and earnest appeal to the moral courage, the con sistent humanity of a Christian nation, not to relax in the energy with which it had embarked upon, and hitherto persisted in, the virtuous enterprise of sup pressing the most atrocious crime on the most extensive scale, which one family of the human race can perpetrate against another. In denouncing the frightful sa crifices of life which, year after year, attend the carrying on of this execrable trade—a trade that, in ten years, depopu lates Africa, on a very moderate computation, to the amount of not less than one million of human beings—in revealing, by a few casual glimpses, as it were, some portion of the unimaginable horrors—the previous hunting, capture, and manacling of these human animals of the chase, and of booty; their subsequent packing in bulk, their privations, and the maddening thirst and delirious fury that succeed it— the unremoved corpses of the dead, from suffocation or inani tion, left to corrupt by the sides, or in the laps, even, of their sur viving companions of the middle passage—and, finally, the lan guid and weakly wretches, whose constitutions, on being disem barked, are found too debilitated for the sordid puposes of the Muscat slave-dealer, and who are therefore left on the burning beach, just where they have sunk from exhaustion and ill treatment, to be drowned by the returning tide ;—in all these passages of his address the Noble Lord spoke out with all the sympathy of the philanthropist, and all the just indig nation of an Englishman. There can be no second opinion, we apprehend, on the spirit and effect with which these terrible, though necessary, details are touched upon. It was in enforcing the immediate purposes of his motion "for the names of the witnesses examined before the mixed British and French Commission for the better suppression of the slave trade, and also of the minutes of the evidence given by them," that the Noble Viscount, in the heat of his argument, must be thought to have been betrayed into those expres sions to which we have alluded as wanting in candour and in discretion. There is no doubt that he was justi fied—unhappily justified—in declaring his solemn conviction " that slave-trading was a crime which desolated Africa, de based Asia, contaminated America, from the north to the south of the settled states of that Continent, and stained Europe with unpardonable guilt." But, surely, he was re proved not without reason by Sir R. PEEL for volunteering a somewhat exaggerated apprehensiveness of French insincerity in its adhesion to the cause of slave trading suppression, and for manifesting a disposition to speak disparagingly of the value of French aid in a common cause on so righteous an object. We are likewise compelled to acknowledge that we feel the force of the Premier's re proof that it was ungracious in the Noble Lord to seek to detract from the merit of Portugal (whatever the past duplicity and contumacy of her conduct) in respect of the good faith and even vigilance of her present exertions to put down the slaving expeditions of her own subjects. Perhaps, too, the Noble Lord may have somewhat damaged the cause he so very ably advocated, by accusing the present Government of apathy in looking to the execution of those conventions and engagements for the suppression of the slave trade, which the Government that had the good fortune to reckon among its most accomplished colleagues the Noble Lord himself, nego tiated under his Lordship's immediate supervision and ma nagement. There is as little of political discretion as of moral candour, we must repeat, in needlessly reflecting upon the counsels of a great people like the French, with regard to transactions that have passed, and as such—as being "faits accomplis "—are, perhaps, no longer within the pale of useful or fair criticism, because they cannot be conformed to any rule or proposition, however excellent, that can now be suggested ! But having entered our protest against these partial de fects, we must do justice to the general tenor, and express our full concurrence in, the general conclusions of this noble address. Whilst we fully concur in the opinion avowed by Sir ROBERT PEEL, that such a convention between the two nations, as that which has been negotiated on behalf of the respective Crowns, by the Duc DE BnoorAE and Dr. LUSHINGTON, is, in itself, and its purposes, a political good, and a hopeful augury of a happier future to the outraged races of Africa, we cannot escape from the force of the charge which Lord PALMERSTON has brought against the British negotiator of having admitted allega tions into the preamble and certain articles of the Convention, at once derogatory to the high reputation this country has justly earned by its abolition of slave-trading eight-and thirty years ago, and by the Imperial ransom which its munificence and its justice paid down, under the self-imposed conditions of the Act of 1834, for the emancipation of all the negro slaves within its colonial dominions.

We believe it Is the intention of the authorities of the Museum, in order to preserve the vase from future attacks, to keep it in a separate apartment, accessible only by tickets. This was the next case called on, and was one of a rather com plicated nature in its details. The facts appeared by the evidence to be shortly these. Two persons, named Corner and Mahon, were applied to by the defendant to advance a loan of 4001. to a Mr. Basket, a builder, upon a mortgage of some property he had ; the deed was made out in an office, on the door of which was defendant's name, but he represented himself as acting for Mr. Warren, a solicitor ; 3601. of the money was advanced by Corner, and the remaining 401. by Mahon, while the deed was alleged to have been made out for 360/. ; defendant paid Corner 81. on two occasions, in A witness named Bousfield was called to prove that he saw Cor ner get the deed from defendant, but Corner denied that such was the fact. The counsel who cross-examined the witness asked him a variety of questions from his brief, with a view to contradict him, but he answered in the negative to every one of them. The Court was occupied the greater part of the day with the case. The Queen and Prince Albert took their usual early walk yesterday morning in the royal gardens of Buckingham Palace. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice, were taken an airing yesterday in an open carriage and four, accompanied by the Dowager Lady Lyttleton.
