No stronger recommendation of this proposed line need be given than the fact that, since it was provisionally registered on the Bth of August last, the idea of the project has been pirated by Companies to whose cupidity the lines appear to hold the strongest temptations. The object of this Company is to form a direct communication between the extespive ports of Lynn and Wisbeach, and the manufacturing Midland dainties of England, by means of a direct railway from Lynn, through Wisbeach to Peterborough, thereby completing the line from the Eastern. coast of England to Northamton and toLincon and Bir mingham, Manchester and Liverpool. The inhabitants of Lynn, Wisbeach, and Peterborough will then enjoy the advantage of • cheap and direct intercommunication between their respective towns, while the important commercial interests connected with the manufacturing and export trades between the Midland Counties and the eastern parts of the coast, will have very valuable additional facilities afforded them. Lynn and Wisbeach should be, and by the proposed line will be come, to Birmingham and the Midland Counties, what Liverpool:is to Manchester, Lancashire, and the counties in the north. More over, by the proposed line a direct railway intercourse will be estab lished between Lynn, Wisbeach, Southampton, Bristol, Gloucester, !cc., as also between Lynn, and Swaff ham, Durham, Thetford, Nor wich, and Yarmouth. On the other hand , proceeding northwards, the line at Peterborough falls into the others which constitute the great northern railways of England. This line will not interfere with either of the proposed lines to Wisbeach, as those lines will proceed t ow ards London, through Iluntingdon, St. Ives, and Ely ; while this line is intended .to afford the means of direct comm unication with all the manufacturing and midland districts. In addition to the various and undeniably great advantages upon this line which render a profitable amount of traffic certain, the facilities afforded by nature for its construction arc greater than those upon any other English line. The cheapness of the construction of lines in Belgium, and the safety upon them, arising from the level character of the country, are proverbial. The districts through which the line will pass possess all the advantages of a Belgian course, together with the additional facility afforded by the established dead level of the Nene navigation. A survey, by a distinguished engineer, has resulted in a report that the expenses of its construction will be small beyond all precedent, and that in an unusually short space of time the various towns and districts which it will affect may be in possession of the commer cial, social, local, and general benefits which it is so calculated to confer. Public meetings will promptly be held in all the towns along the line, at which a deputation from the promoters will attend to give whatever information may be required.

The line will traverse a rich and populous country, and by its junc tion with the Great Southern and Western and the Dublin and Gal way Railways, complete a chain of direct lines of railway between the metropolis of Ireland and the river Shannon, and afford the advantages of the improved system of intercommunication to an extensive district untouched by any existing or other projected railway. This facility of intercommunication is imperatively demanded to connect the populous towns of Frankford, Kenniffy, Clonaslee, Par sonstown, Banagher, Eyrecourt, Cloghan, Ferbane, Shinrone, Por tumna, and Borrisokane, with the city of Dublin on the east, and the port of Galway on the west, and the object will be effected by the construction of a direct line of railway, not exceeding 25 miles in length, passing through a country free from engineering difficulties, and avoiding competitioa with other lines. The large amount of traffic at present existing between Dublin and the towns in immediate connexion with the proposed line, with the great increase which must flow as a necessary consequence of the completion of the work, insure a highly remunerative return on the capital required to be embarked. A detailed prospectus will be issued on Tuesday.

This important line of railway is intended to commence at a point in the Tean and Dove Valley Railway, at or near to Snareston, and to extend to Leicester. _ _ R will thus furnish a link necessary for carrying on the traffic brought to Leicester by means of the South Midlands, the Bedford, and the Peterborough Railways (all of which terminate at or near Leicester), to the Staffordshire Potteries and the great towns of Lan cashire and Cheshire, and complete an unbroken line of railway, by the best and nearest practicable route, from the various important railway termini at Leicester to Manchester and Liverpool. This great line of railway, it will be observed, traverses the finest coal-fields In the country, and embraces the towns of Burton-upon- Trent, Uttozeter, Cheadle, Leek, Macclesfield, Lane End, Stoke upon -Trent, and Newcastle-under-Lyme, and the important and rapidly-Increasing potteries of Swadlincote and Gresley, as well as those of Staffordshire. An inspection of the map will show that the junction line now proposed is essential for the accommodation of the public, and it can not fail to be exceedingly remunerative to the proprietors. The undertaking has the cordial support of the Tean and Dove Valley Railway Company. In the allotment of shares preference will be given to Shareholders in that Company, and to parties locally interested in the line. The capital of the Company will be 300,0001., divided into 15,000 shares of 201. each ; a deposit of 21. 2s. per share must be paid on al lotment, and each original subscriber must execute the usual Parlia mentary and Subscription Contract, or his shares will be forfeited.

Morning .. 59 minutes after 10 I Evening .. 33 minutes after 11. of the astonished Governor. *Upon the general contents of these we have not leisure or space, at present, to offer any commentary. It is, however, impossible not to remark, by the way, that for the life of us we cannot see in what the of:•nce of these civilians consists. If the authorities and their servants in all our other colonies, turned their money to no worse account, and devoted their leisure to no more objection able pursuits, than to purchase lands in those colonies, and to superintend their cultivation, we fancy that even the mis chievous ingenuity of Lord STANLEY'S administrative mis management would be neutralised. If public servants in our colonies, in addition to that average amount of common 'sense which does not seem necessarily to attach to those whom Lord STANLEY calls " their official superiors" at home, were at once practically conversant with, and personally interested in, the agriculture and husbandry of the regions in which they happened to be established; we rather believe that the very happiest consequences would follow. A few scions of our best aristocratic gentry, in the colonies—the trans planting of some such intelligent men of family and business and first-rate farmers as Mr. PUSSY, for example, the Pre sident of the ROYAL AGRICULTURAL ASSOCIATION—wouId not a little improve the transaction of Government business, and very largely advance the science of practical agriculture throughout the Government jurisdiction. Indeed, we are bold to believe that the settlement and example of one such individual, in a country so abundant in all mineral wealth and tropical products as Ceylon, would accomplish more for the interests of that fine island in ten years, than the continuance of Lord STANLEY in office, in Downing-street, could accomplish in a thousand. By a happy fatuity it is upon Ceylon that Lord STANLEY commences his experiments of official reform ; be cause no example can be adduced of a colony in which the mismanagement of the great officers of the Crown at home has been so signally contrasted with the more sagacious treat ment extended to it by the servants of a commercial com pany, as this island of Ceylon. But let that pass for the present. It is imagined in Downing-street, that if gentlemen holding civil appointments there presume also to possess and look after estates on which they have coffee plantations, their attention must be mischievously distracted from the due discharge of their public duties. If the fine old hunting establishment at the Oaks were still maintained, and Lord STANLEY himself were now out three times a week with his late grandfather's hounds (as we have known him to be since he knew Downing-street), we are much mistaken if one word would have emanated from him, on this occasion, touching the incompatibility of official duties with the ordinary ma nagement of landed property. But those days of more in nocent and—we really must add—much more harmless excitement seem to have gone by for Lord STANLEY. His evil star will not permit him to leave well alone. He could not keep his fingers off. New Zealand, but he first raised a poli tical blister on its system in the shape of his chosen Governor, Captain FITZROY ; and has since, in his efforts to reduce it, operated by such a counter-irritation as the encouragement afforded by his imbecile proceedings to the gentle HEEL Ceylon was doing somewhat better than of late, when Lord STANLEY issues his fiat that civil servants holding landed estates there must dispose of them within two years. Why' my Lord ? Your accusation against the parties is not a posi tive one ; you do not venture to tax them in terms with the specific offence of having neglected their public duty in look ing after their private property; for in a subsequent dispatch, alluding to the "incidental mention" you have found "in a letter, of several officers of the Government being constantly absent from the capital at their coffee plantations," your Lordship proceeds thus :—" I am happy to feel myself relieved from the necessity of inquiring into the truth or falsehood of this statement." Good. But why, then, act upon it precisely on the assumption that it is true? If you suppose it false, why inflict this arbitrary, this Oriental sentence of alienation of their property on the parties? If you are uncertain whether the statement be false or true, why deal with it exactly as you would if every tittle of it were affirmatively substantiated by your own con viction? There is much of the characteristic irritability, precipitancy, and (we add, with pain) injustice of the Noble Secretary in this inconsistent proceeding. But let us look at what his Lordship's charges are, when they are re reduced into something less ambiguous than a Sybilline denunciation. His Lordship imputes to the gentlemen con nected with the Cingalese Civil Departments, " a low state of public feeling." What, does lie imagine the public at large, and the Conservative party in particular, think of the tone of his own public feeling, when it leads him to , exhibit him self, for years together, in the leading-strings of a political nurse of no higher character than Sir J. GRAHAM? The civil servants are reproached further, "with a want of energy and proper pride." (Strike us " New Zealand " and " Jamaica," out of the failures recorded of official imbecility and disingenuous tampering, my Lord, and then, if you please, talk of " energy " and " proper pride.") They are reproved for being wanting in the zeal, without which ser vices cannot be advantageous to the people, or acceptable to the Government." What is his Lordship's construction of zeal? No reproach, for ought that he states, justly attaches to them for any defect of honest and even hearty intentions in the cause of their country. The feeling which engenders these intentions we respect as a generous zeal. But if Lord STANLEY quar rels with these gentlemen because they are not bigoted par tizans in all the movements of religious or political party— because they express themselves with temperance and moderation, and a solicitude for the feelings of others, instead of with ill dissembled resentment, vehement rashness, and a bitterness reckless of all the pain it may cause or the mis chiefs it may sow, we congratulate the gentlemen of Ceylon for having left behind them in England—even if Lord STANLEY should happen to have taken to it—such an unworthy and mist atesmanlike qualification. Intelligence has been received at Liverpool from Monte Video to the 10th of July. It appears from this that an ultimatum had been sent in on the previous day to RosAs, demanding a categorical answer in 72 hours. On the after noon of the 10th this was confirmed to the British merchants by Mr. TURNER, the British Charge d'Affaires, who read to the Chairman of their Committee a dispatch from Mr. OUSELEY, dated the 9th of July, to the effect that " the Baron DEFFAUDIS and Mr. OUSFLEY had finally demanded the withdrawal of the Argentine troops from before Monte Video, and the retirement of the Argentine squadron ;" that they also offered their mediation to the Monte Videan Government for the purpose of arranging a definitive peace between the two republics. The result remains to be seen, but it is not likely that Rosns will continue to brave the power of England and France. By the arrival of the packet-ship Henry, we have ac counts from New York to the 6th inst. There is a good deal of discusssion, mixed with a little boasting, in the papers about a war with Mexico, and preparations are in prvgress for the anticipated contest. A call has been made on the Governor of Florida to furnish 800 men to go to Texas. The New Orleans papers give detailed accounts of the movements of the milit.ry in and for Texas, from which it appears that troops are fast gathering in that country for the purpose of opposing the Mexicans, and according to accounts from Vera Cruz, the Mexican troops, amounting to between 10,000 and 15,000 men, including a large proportion of cavalry, had received orders to march to the Texan frontier, and take their position ten leagues east, or on the Texan bank of the Rio del Norte. The domestic intelligence in the American papers is without much interest. The Caledonia steamer, which reached New York on the 4th inst., had brought out large orders for flour and corn. The cotton market was firm, with prices a shade higher, and the exchange on England at 9 3 / 4 to 10. The Madridjournals of the 19th are chiefly occupied with discussions relative to the marriage of the QUEEN and her sister. According to most of them the most probable result will be the marriage of her MAJESTY with Prince FERDI NAND of Saxe Coburg, and that of the Infanta LOUISA with the Duke DE MONTPENSIER. The former is not a matter of very great importance, for from all accounts the QUEEN is of a very weakly constitution, but the other, should the report be well founded, ;will cause no little ex citement throughout Europe. It is one of Louis PuiurrE's darling objects, and he seldom fails. The Castellano, Heraldo, and some other journals, urge no ob . ection against the mar riage, in fact advert to it with satisfaction ; and, probably, for a6' sufficient reason." It would be difficult, however, to reconcile Austria, Russia, and Prussia, not to mention Great Britain, to such an alliance. On the 19th no business was done publicly on the Bourse, which is thus adverted to in a letter from Madrid : " The state of our Bourse is certainly curious ; but it does not appear to be well understood in foreign countries. As the official list contains no quotations, it is supposed that no business is done, and that our Funds have fallen to the very lowest point of degradation. This is quite a mistake ; it is true that the Bourse of Madrid is ex ceedingly paralysed, but it is not exact that no operations take place. Brlsiness is done, but the account of it is not published." The Paris journals announce the return of another Con servative candidate to the Chamber of Deputies, M. DE BELLEYME, by the electoral college of Vendome. There were four candidates in the field—two Conservatives, one belonging to the Left, and the fourth a Legitimatist. At the first scrutiny the two former, namely, M. DE BELLEYME and M. DESSAIGNES, were highest on the poll, but as neither bad an absolute majority, a second contest took place, when M. DE BELLEYME was returned by a majority of 42, the numbers being respectively 286 and 244. The other candidates were in miserable minorities, to the great mortification of the Opposition journals. The Journal des Debats contains an article on the protest of the Irish Catholic prelates against the Academies'Bill, in which it states that the newinstitutiotiwill, in all probability, triumph over the hostility of Mr. O'CONNELL and a part cf the bishops, and this protest will serve no other purpose than to bring to light the division which prevails even among the chiefs of the Irish Church. According to some of the jour nals, Marshal 131:GEM:I'D having been got rid of by the Go vernment, a new system will be adopted in the management of Algeria, by which the supreme control will rest with., the Ministry, and no longer be virtually given up to the military governor. On this subject the Presse says : " Hitherto the affairs of that colony have been exclusively under the control of the Minister of War, and consequently the Governor of Algeria has been necessarily under the War depart ment the arbitrary dispenser of power, and the sole administrator. All this is to be speedily changed by the French Government in general, and not the Minister of War exclusively, taking it into its hands, according to its respective departments, the administration of the colony, and treating it as it does the departments of the in terior, each Minister having his special control over the branches which regard his oftke. When this project shall have been com pleted it can matter comparatively little who is the Governor. General of Algeria, for he can have no opportunity of trying a system of his own, either with or without the concurrence of his )3 ominal superior," The following are miscellaneous extracts 4 , A letter from Eu Oates that the Duke and Duchess de Ne. mours had arrived at the chateau on the evening of the 23d inst. It is said the King will not remain much longer at Eu, but that his Majesty and the Royal Family will reside at St. Cloud for some time be:ore they take up their residence at the Tuileries for the winter. The Duke de Montpensier is expected home before the Gth of next month, in order that he may be present at the family fete on the occasion of the anniversary of the King's birth-clay. The Duke d'Aumale arrived at Rouen on Wednesday morning, and immediately proceeded to Eu. " The State Gazette of Lucerne gives an account of a Congress held on the 15th and 1 Gth instant at Zug, of fifty-seven of the most distinguished Catholic inhabitants of the thirteen Catholic cantons; 'at which,' says that journal, 'all declared themselves ready to sacrifice their lives and properties in defence of their faith, against the attacks at present made on it.' They also unani mously declared that, while exacting every guarantee for the rights of the confessional, and the free exercise of their own wor ship, they would not in any wise infringe on the rights of the Pro testants.' "On Wednesday, about two o'clock, Antoine, the man who mur dered Lieutenant Aubree, was seen, by a corporal of the same re giment, crossing the Place d'Armes at Versailles. The alarm was given, and he was immediately pursued, but before hands could be laid on him, he took a pistol from his pocket and blew his brains out.

That he will be returned by the Livery to the Court of Aldermen by a triumphant majority, as be always has been, there can be no doubt ; and we are at a loss to conceive what reason the Court of Aldermen can give for rejecting him. We shall, doubtless, be told of his connexion with the Talacre Company, and the dangerof disgraceto the City from the fact of one whose liabilities, as connected with that Company, are so great occupying the Civic chair. This argument has been used with powerful effect on former occasions. It is, however, now perfectly inapplicable. We have reason to know that Mr. Alderman Wood has discharged every liabi lity to which he was subjected in consequence of his con nexion with the Talacre Company; that he has a legal dis charge from every creditor of that Company who had any legal claim . upon him ; and that Sir Peter Laurie himself is in quite as much danger from the creditors of the Talacre Coal Company as Mr. Alderman Wood. Is it because he embarked in that speculation that he is to be considered as an improper person to bold the highest civic office? Let the other " most potent, grave, and reverend seignors" of the Court of Aldermen beware ! How many of them hold shares in various joint-stock companies at the present moment ? Do they consider themselves disqualified thereby; or is it only when shares are at a discount that the holder of them is " not to be endured?" We are obliged to make these "guesses" in the dark at the cause of the pertinacious rejec tion, by the Court of Aldermen, of the claims of Mr. Alder man Wood, because, although his opponents have dealt freely in insinuations and inuendoes, they have been very chary in making distinct charges. Whenever they have ventured to do so those charges have been invariably met and refuted. By his legal acquirements Alderman Wood is exactly suited for the office of Chief Magistrate of the City of Lon don, and that is most probably the reason why the Court of Aldermen reject him. How else can we account for those straining at Mr. Alderman Wood who could gulp down Gibbs, the "unaccountable." His Royal Highness Prince Albert arrived in town this morning, by a special train of the Great Western Railway, and attended a meeting of the Duchy of Cornwall-office, in Somerset House. The Prince lunched at Buckingham Palace, and in the afternoon took his departure on his return to Windsor Castle? LLOYD'S SHIPPING-(THIS DAY.)

The importanee of establishing the most direct railway communi cation between Leeds and Carlisle, and, by means of the Caledonian Railway, between Carlis e, G'asgow, and Edinburgh, is too self evident to roquire anything to be urged in its support. The existing and projected lines of railway in Yorkshire, which pursue a westerly or north-westerly direction, are intended rather to benefit particuiar towns 'and districts, than to effect this object. The present railway accomplishes it to the utmost possible extent. The line now proposed proceeds by the Leeds and Thirsk Railway (for which an Aet has been already obtained) up Wharfedale to Otley, Kettlewell, and Hawes, thence it passes through or near Kirby Stephen and Appleby, uniting with the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway near Penrith. A branch from Otley to Bradford will extend to that important town the advantages of the undertaking. In comparison with the existing lines the Leeds and Carlisle Railway will effect a saving of more than forty miles ; and it is considerably shorter than any other projected line. The great national and local importance of the Railway will be evident. It affords the shortest and most direct route between the manufac turing metropolis of Yorkshire and the commercial metropolis of Scotland; and through the medium of the railways which have their termini in Glasgow and Edinburgh, the line will be connected with the several Scotch Trunk lines, extending from these cities to the northern, western, and eastern counties. The traffic in goods between Leeds and Glasgow alone (independ ently of that with the other towns and ports in Scotland) is of a very large amount ; and the facilities afforded by the proposed line will necessarily attract to the intermediate towns, and to Scotland gene rally, the supply of goods from the manufacturing districts in York shire. The distance between Leeds and London will be very materially reduced by the lines already in progress through Parliament, and the Leeds and Carlisle must necessarily form a portion of the Trunk Railway for the traffic between London and Scotland. The line will connect Hull and the Humber directly with the Sol way Firth, a mercantile object of vary considerable importance. A new and cheap mode of transit will be obtained for the extensive agricultural produce of the rich vales through which the line passes, and which produce, at present, notwithstanding the demand in the manufacturing districts cannot be forwarded to the different markets for want of railway communication. A large and profitable traffic will be derived from the produce of the extensive mineral districts opened by the line, and the working of which has hitherto, in some instances, been rendered impracticable by the cost of transit, and in all has been greatly impeded. A survey has been made, and the Parliamentary plans and sections are in progress, and the engineers have undertaken to have them completed in the course of next month.

This line will traverse a rich and popUlous district, as yet perfectly untouched by any railway undertaking. The vast importance of the project will be readily understood by the most cursory reference to the position and statistics of the several counties through which the proposed lines will pass. The county of Leitrim is at this moment in process of be coming the rival of many other counties in Ireland, and the advantages it must derive from the operations of the Shannon Commissions are obvious. The River Shannon has heretofore been an utterly neglected medium of communication between the internal districts of the country; and, as regards Leitrim and Cavan, this desideratum has not been supplied by any railway project whatever. The proposed line will commence at Dundalk, in the county of Louth, and by the shortest and most direct course imaginable, will traverse and connect the counties of Louth, Cavan, Leitrim, Roscommon, and Sligo, and open the communication between the port of Sligo in the west, and Dtualalk in the east. • The tOandonment of the Great North-Western Line, consequent upon the report of the Board of Trade of the Kells Branch not having been ceded to the Dublin and Belfast Junction Company, by reason of its not being a national adjunct to the latter line, leaves at this moment the whole of the county of Meath utterly devoid of any railway com munication with the adjoining counties. The projected line IN:11 pass in its direct course within twenty miles of Kells, and the branch to that tow.a, which it is in contem plation to construct, will pass the important towns of Balieborough and Virginia, Kells and Trim, forming a junction with the Mullin gar line at Longwood. The traffic tables of the Great North Western exhibit the largest section of the trade to exist between the above-mentioned towns, and the profit upon the undertaking must consequently be presumed to be much greater than on the proposed Great North Western line. A detailed prospectus will be published in the course of a few days, with the list of the Provisional Committee. In the interim, applica tions are to be addressed to the Secretary, Robert Ralph Ryley, Esq., at the offices of the Company, 41, Aloorgate-street, London. PARIS AND STRASBURG RAILWAY.

In some correspondence between the Colonial Department and the Governor of Ceylon, which has just been issued from the Parliamentary Paper-office, we observe that about the month of May last Lord STANLEY was favoured with certain startling revelations touching the enormity of civil servants of the Crown, resident in the fine colony we have named, holding landed estates there.

CARRIER PIGEON EXPRESSES —On Sunday after noon last, Mr. Davies, one of the ushers at Lambeth Police court, while in his garden at Camberwell, observed a pigeon at a considerable height hovering about and flying to and ..fro, as if at a loss to find its way. The bird was at such an altitude at the time that he thought it almost impossible to bring it down. He, however, fired at it from a powerful gun, and in an instant it fell close to his feet. Upon examining the bird, which is one of what is commonly called the skinner kind, he found a neatly cut slip of parchment tied to its leg, on one side of which 'there were W. P. H. 4, and on the other C. N. 1-5, which, there is very little doubt, was in tended to convey some information for stock-jobbing or rail way share speculators.—Post.
