Parties to whom letters of allotment have not been addressed are requested to receive this as a notification of the inabi lity of the Committee to comply with their request. By order of the Committee, MARCUS LEWIS HILL, Secretary. Mr. Rowcroft, the editor, continues his " Tales of the Colonies," and in the " Bushranger of Van Diemen's Lani" gives us a ludicrous account of a fight between a settler and a kangaroo, in which the settler got the ' worst of it. The best paper in the Number is " Lady Barbara's White Rose ; a tale of the Court of King James the First." The tale is well told, and the interest is kept up to the last. We are sorry to see this Maga zine dabbling in polities—" Corn-laws and Free-trade" is a rechauffee of the thousand-times-refuted arguments of the monopolists —arguments which even the advocates of the corn-laws in the House of Commons have them selves given up as untenable. Can it be that Mr. Row croft has engaged the Duke of Newcastle to write for Hood's Magazine? This scheme, in conjunction with the London and Worcester and South Staffordshire Railway, will afford the greatest facility of com munication to the IOWIIS and manufactories along the whole Valley of the Stour, with Birmingham and the principal markets in the Mid land districts.

The object of this undertaking is to complete the railway commu nication from the British Channel to the North Sea, by constructing a line of railway between Cheltenham and Northampton, thus open ing the whole resources of South Wales, and the West of England, to the North-Eastern and Eastern Counties, in the most direct and shortest course, and in a line with the existing traffic. On reference to the map of England, it will be seen that by the present railways, and others in the course of formation, all the traffic from Line In, Boston, Wisbeach, King's Lynn, Norwich, and Yar mouth, will be brought to Northampton ; and, on the west side of England, the railways from Cornwall, Plymouth, Exeter, and Bristol, and also from Fishguard, Milford Haven, Swansea, Merthyr, New port, Hereford, and all the south of Wales, will bring the traffic up to G'oucester and Cheltenham; and, therefore, the importance of connecting these towns by this railway is evident. This railway will commence at Cheltenham, and proceed by or near Chipping Norton, Stow-on-the %Vold, to Banbury (where it will join the Oxford and Rugby line), and from thence to the London and Birmingham Railway, near Blisworth, there joining the Northamp ton and Peterborough Railway. It will be seen, therefore, that this railway will form a main trunk line from the east to the west of England, and the south of Wales ; and will connect the ports of Boston, Wisbeach, King's Lynn, and Yarmouth, with the ports of Gloucester and Bristol, by the shortest pcesible course, and afford great facilities for communication with the south of Ireland. It will be the shortest and most direct route from all the northern countries of Europe, and the eastern and midland counties of England to the south of Ireland, and to Bantry Bay or Valentia, from whence it is expected all the Post-office Packets to India, America, and the West Indies will start, as soon as the Irish Railways are completed. It will open the important copper, tin, iron, and coal districts of Cornwall, South Wales, and Gloucestershire, as well with the mid land counties as with the eastern ports of England, for export to the northern countries of Europe. The immense exports and imports to and from the south of Wales, and this country, to the north of Europe, would, by being more expe ditiously and effectively carried on this line, traverse it in preference to the risk and uncertainty of a sea voyage round the coast ; and the small cost of the construction of this line, and of those in connexion with it, will cause merchandise, minerals, and coals to be carried by it at very low rates, and consequently a very large traffic will be created in the carriage of Welsh and Forest of Dean coals, the large iron produce of Wales, and the cloth goods of Gloucestershire, along this line to the eastern and midland counties, and to the eastern ports for export to the northern ports of Europe. A great portion of the large quantities of corn now exported from the eastern ports, must find its way along this line to the western counties, and the produce of the south of Ireland will be brought by it to the eastern counties. The proposed railway is much required by the local traffic of the populous districts through uhich it passes, and which will be found in itself sufficient to afford a fair return, but the vast augmentation of revenue which must arise from the through traffic, on the completion of this, the only remaining link, in the chain of railway communica tion across the country, must be of an extensive character, and will afford a most remunerative return on the capital invested. The traffic on the Northampton and Peterborough line, since its opening, has very far exceeded the expectations of the Directors of that Compary. There are no engineering difficulties, and the question as to width of gauge is reserved for future consideration. Power will be taken in the Act to allow interest at the rate of 4/. per cent. on the sums paid.

GREAT SOUTHERN and WESTERN and WATERFORD and LIMERICK JUNCTION RAILWAY. The promoters of this undertaking having obtained the support and co-operation of the Great Southern and Western Railway Com pany, propose to construct a line of railway from Clonmel to Thurles, via Cashel and Holycross, a distance of twenty-nine statute miles, to connect the Great Southern and Western with the Waterford and Limerick Railway, and thus establish for Clonmel a direct communi cation with the metropolis by a route the shortest of any yet pro posed. This project now appears before the public with this strong recom mendation, " That the Great Southern and Western Railway Com pany, being already empowered by their Act to make that part of the line lying between Thurles and Cashel, have consented to use the powers vested in them for the benefit of this Company." This railroad, passing through one of the most fertile and populous parts of Ireland, will afford accommodation to a district containing more than 100,000 inhabitants, and abounding in agricultural pro duce ; for which Clonmel, the first inland town in Ireland, with its extensive mills, breweries, bacon yards, and distillery, offers a cer tain market. This line will also secure to the northern parts of Tipperary, and the adjoining counties, the most expeditious conveyance to the port of Waterford. The extensive collieries of Slievardagh, worked by the Mining Company of Ireland, lie contiguous, and must prove a great source of revenue to this Company. Our engineer has been instructed to examine and report on the best mode of connecting them with the main line. Calculating from the traffic tables proved before the Committees of the House of Commons, in the cases of the Great Southern and Western end Waterford and Limerick Railway Companies, for the adjoining districts, the Committee look with confidence for an ample return for the capital invested. A preliminary survey of the line has been made ; no engineering difficulties present themselves ; no tunnelling nor deep cutting will be required • no demesnes will be interfered with, and it is calculated that 10,00(1. per mile will be more than sufficient to complete the undertaking. This is not a competing line, and has obtained the sanction and sup port of nearly all the landowners through whose property it is in tended to pass. Powers will be taken in the Bill to lease this railway to, or con tract with any other Company, so as to ensure the greatest economy in working the line. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

The Proctors have much pleasure in informing the Proprietors that a coalition with Messrs, Torlenia and Co., of Rome, and through them with the Bank of Rome, and with the house of the Marchese di Piz zardi, of Bologna, has been formed, and that other arrangements highly advantageous to the Company have been made by the Chair man and Deputation in Italy. It is expected that Stock applicable to the Papal and other States in Italy will shortly have to be created, a rateable proportion of which will be given to each Proprietor of the Italian and Austrian Railway Company, who shall pay, on or before the 21st July next, to the credit of the Company, with their respective Bankers, a further instalment of 2/. per share en the stock held by them in that Com pany ; such call is necessary to meet the demand for the deposit of caution-money, which will be required by the respective Govern ments. Parties not paying such call will be excluded from a'l ad vantages arising from the creation of new stock. The Directors have further to announce that the direction for the management of the Railways formed in the Papal States will eon sist of BANKERS Messrs, Torlonia, and Co., Rome „ PI zzarc I, and Co., Bologna „ Fenzi, Hall, and Co., Florence PRINCE ALEXANDER TORLONIA, as Chairman, with four others appointed by the Italian interest, and six to be ap pointed by the Italian and Austrian Company. Two-thirds of the stock will be divided among the Proprietors of the Italian and Aus trian Company, and the remaining one-third will be distributed by the house of Torlonia and Co., the Bank of Royce, and Messrs. Luige Pizzardi and Co., of Bologna, to influential parties in Italy. By order of the Board, 112, Bishopsgate-street. G. H. D. LAURENCE, Secretary. T HE ITALIAN and AUSTRIAN RAILWAY COMPANY. The Directors have the satisfaction to inform the Proprietors that they have suceee led in obtaining from His Royal Highness the grand Duke of Tuscany, in preference to twenty-two competitors, a grant for sixty years, of a railway from Florence to Pestoja, on terms highly advantageous to the Company. This line presents no engineering difficulty, and passes through a district densely populated, and rich in mineral and agricultural productions, and will be connected with the railway already in operation between Leghorn and Pisa, by means of the line now forming from Pisa to Florence. The capital will consist of 8,000,000 of Tuscan livres, equal to about 265,0001. sterling, one third of which has been already subscribed for in Tuscany, and the Directors have secured the remaining two-thirds, which will be dis tributed, so soon as the necessary documents have been perfected in Italy, to such holders of the Italian and Austrian Railway Company's shares as shall have complied with the terms of the advertisement, by which a call was made of 21. per share, payable on the 21st July instant. Under the original prospectus the Directors were authorised to take every necessary step to obtain Goverment grants for the railway from Verona to Ancona, and to coalesce or make beneficial arrangements with any companies proposing to construct lines of railway in connexion with the Italian and Austrian Railway Com pany or its branches, and the deputation who proceeded to Italy having found that they could, with great advantage to the Share holders, enter upon other railway undertakings in the Italian and Austrian States, besides the line between Ancona and Verona, deter mined upon doing so, and upon giving to the Shareholders the option of joining these undertakings. The Directors, therefore, tendered for the valuable grant they have now obtained for the railway from Florence to Pestoja, and also have entered upon several other nego tiations, which, through the aid of the wealthy and influential parties with whom they are connected at Rome, Bologna, and other places in Italy, they feel confident will be brought to a successful ter mination. The benefits resulting from these negotiations will, as they arise, be rateably apportioned to those Proprietors who shall pay such calls as shall be made from time to time by the Directors for carrying out fully the objects in contemplation.

SOLICITORS. Messrs Patterson, Haymes, and Hanbury, Leamington and Warwick W. 0. Hunt, Esq., and Charles Stevens, Esq., No. 10, Whitehall, London Messrs. Clay and Swift, Liverpool. The object of this undertaking is to establish the most direct and efficient railway communication that can be formed between Bir mingham and Oxford, connecting by the shortest possible route the whole of the Lancashire manufacturing districts and sea-ports with the south of England and its long line of coast in the British Chan nel. The existing lines afford but a very imperfect and circuitous communication through London, and it is singular that the com peting lines of railway now before the public do not supply the de ficiency or provide for the objects now contemplated. Under these circumstances, there can be no doubt that this railway will confer essential benefits on the districts through which it is intended to pass, as well as on the commercial and industrious classes of the north, and a very cursory inspection of the map will satisfy the inquirer that the line is so peculiarly situate as to command an unusually large amount of through traffic, independent of its local resources, which are very great. It cannot fail to be observed, that the Birmingham and Oxford Junction will save a considerable distance on the route towards the coast, besides furnishing to Warwick and Leamington the most direct railway communication for the traffic between those places and Oxford, Reading, &c., while the cheapness of construction and excellence of the gradients will enable the Company to convey pas sengers and goods at very low rates, such as would not remunerate an expensive line, but which are calculated to afford an ample return for the small capital required for this undertaking. The railway will commence by a connexion with the Grand Junc tion Railway at Birmingham, and, proceeding in nearly a straight line by Warwick and Leamington, fall into the intended Oxford and Rugby Line, near Fenny Compton ; the entire distance from Bir mingham to Oxford will thus be about 62 miles. The Stratford-on-Avon line which will be constructed simulta neously with the line by Warwick and Leamington, will join the main railway at or near to Kingswood. From Stratford-on-Avon to Moreton-in-the-Marsh, by an improvement of the existing railway, a distance of 14 miles, the communication through Stratford will be complete to the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton line, at d the Oxford, Reading, and th e s out h of En gland. It is confidently believed that this extension of the Oxford line to the Grand Junction Railway at Birmingham, taking Leamington and Warwick in its course, will flunish such strong corroborative proof of the public importance and necessity of the Oxford and Rugby line (now promoted by the Great Western Company,) as to insure its success in Parliament. If the broad gauge should be adopted, ar rangements have been made with the Great Western Company to run dispatch trains between London and Birmingham in less than three hours, and also to provide, at low rates, means of conveyance for every descripti on of traffic, whether of passengers, carriages , horses, cattle, or merchandise and minerals, The Provisional Committee, however, promote this measure as one of great national importance, and do not intend it to be contingent in any degree on the success or failure of the Oxford and Rugby Railway, but they will be guided in the final selection of the line, in the principle of construction, and in the mode of working it, by the evidence which may be adduced during the present session, and by the result of the applications now before Parliament, as far as they may appear consistent with the experience still to be obtained on the relative merits of the systems. They need only add in conclusion, that if the Oxford and Rugby line is successful, the capital of 600,0001. will be ample, as the coun try has been carefully examined. No engineering difficulties exist, and there will be no tunnel throughout the line. The landed interests affected by the proposed railway are favour able, and the Bill will be applied for in the next session of Parliament.

IN PARIS.—Some sensation has been created in the French capital within the last two days by the dis covery of an affair of this kind between one of the most celebrated, romance writers of the day, lately made a Peer of France, and the lady of a distinguished French artist, some of whose works have re cently been exhibited in London. The parties were, it is said detected by the injured husband in a situation which left no doubt of their guilt, and as he had procured the assistance of a commis sary of police, the lady was immediately committed to durance vile, a fate which the gentleman would also have shared had not his newly.acquired position as a Peer rendered his person inviolable. —[We confess we think some such mode of treating these affairs might have a good effect in England. Imprisonment and bard labour would prove a more effectual check than actions for damage. " We came through the Straits of Banca, Sunda, &c., but not without interruption from the pirates, who infest those parts, one of whom made an abortive attempt to board us in the night, by a trick that is now considered rather stale, though many crews have been murdered through such. Large portions of earth, covered with long wild grass, and sometimes with the addition of stumps of trees, are often seen in the above straits, floating down with the currents. These the pirates imitate, by constructing a raft, or something of that description, capable of holding a number of cut-throats, armed to the teeth, and over whom a covering, well calcu lated to deceive strangers, is placed, resembli ng the floating masses before named. So prepared, the pirates float down upon vessels in the night, and having succeeded in boarding them, proceed to murder the slumbering crew and plunder the cargo. While off the west coast of Sumatra. about nine o'clock one evening, one of those dens of infamy was quietly dropping down on our starboard-bow, when our look-out, suspecting its true character, ran and reported it to the officer of the watch. We had two six-pounders ready for them, besides abundance of small arms, and just as he was quietly dropping unto our bow, and within nice reach, we tired a gun to let him know we were not dozing. He still took no notice, but kept dropping on, thinking he should still deceive us with the fancy he was only a floating mass of earth. We now, however, took effectual means to put him on the right scent, by letting fly the contents of one of our six-pounders clean through him. We could plainly hear, by the howling inside, that our present was certainly not a welcome one. He instantly sheered off, by means of some contrivance we could not make out, and we saw no more of him." Captain Hippisley's account of the siege of Oporto in 132 and 1833 is continued, as is Marshal Marmont's work on Military Institutions. Lieutenant-Colonel Witkie's paper on the Defensive Force of Great Britain contains Nome valuable hints for forming the yeomanry cavalry into a really efficieht corps. We would com mend Capt. O'Connor's paper, entitled " Twelvemonths Service inWestern Africa," to the attentive consideration of our legislators. It would appear from this, that the colony of Sierra Leone is of all jobs the grossest. Not only is it the white man's grave—not only are large sums of money uselessly squandered annually in main taining a staff of officials who have nothing to do, but instead of being a sanctuary for emancipated negroes, they are actually kidnapped for the free town itself; and sold into slavery. " Oa one occasion, a soldier of the Royal African Corps, while on sentry at the east battery, was persuaded to drink some palm wine, which had been previously drugged; and, on awaking from his stupor, he found himself, arms, accou trements, and all, a prisoner at the mercy of some Mandinge slave-dealers. He made such a row, threatened so much, and fear of the consequences which might follow, operating at the same time in the robbers' mind, he was put on shore at a point near a British factory, and from which place he made his way back again to Sierra Leone." It is of little use destroying barracoons at Gullinas, while we maintain at our proper cost a magazine like Freetown, to which Mandingo slave dealers can resort whenever they want to replenish their stock. Unless Captain O'Connor's account be an actual fabrication, no time should be lost in abandoning the colony altogether —at all events, we hope the Legislature will, during the course of the ensuing session, institute a searching in quiry into its state and prospects. There are also seve ral valuable papers on strictly professional subjects in the present number of this magazine. THE RAILWAY REGISTEI? FOR JULY. The eighth Number of this useful record of engineering and public enterprise f,:r railways, canals, harbours, steam navigation, &c., imp roves upon its predecessors, and contains a great deal' of information respecting se veral important public works both in this country and abroad. Well-executed maps are published with several of the articles, for the purpose of rendering the details of projected railways more intelligible, among which we may mention " Railways in India," "Belgian Railways," " Great Eastern and Western Railway," and the " Lei cester and Bedford Railway." We extract the follow.. ing remarks on the " Battle of the Gauges," and are glad to find that the writer pays a just compliment to Mr. F. Shaw for the excellent speech he made in the House of Commons on the subject : " The Battle of the Gauges,' as the contest between th e London and Birmingham, and the Great Western interests, is called, terminated on Friday, the 20th of June, in the way every man of reason and common sense must have antici pated, namely, in favour of the latter. Not to put the case offensively to either party, it must be remarked that the question whether the Great Western, in conjunction with the Grand Junction, should be allowed to open up a line of traffic to the north, independent altogether of the London and Bir' mingham old trunk line, was a question which directly affected the pecuniary interests of the two parties, whilst it still more essentially involved the paramount interests of the public. This new line introduces a principle of wholesome competition, which, if it had been rejected, would have been hopelessly and for ever lost to the public ; for it cannot be doubted that whichever of these great interests had first possessed themselves of the vast tract of country through which this, as we may term it, interloping line passes, would have retained it for ever. In a word, if the Birmingham and Midland interests had once obtained possession of the Oxford and Birmingham district, they would eventually have obtained a direct hold upon the southern and western parts of the country, which would have, to a great extent, para lysed the energies of the Great Western Railway; and thus, whilst the existing traffic of the latter would have been con siderably affected, the power of the Birmingham Company would have amounted almost to a monopoly. "It was upon considerations such as these, more than upon the abstract question of the superiority of a broad or narrow gauge, that the decision of the Committee was come to. Indeed, this abstract question of breadth of gauge is one which the best engineers are as yet as far from being agreed upon, as in the very infancy of railway enterprise. The practical and scientific evidence which was adduced upon the subject before the Committee, we have given a careful analysis of in another part of our present number. In this paper we speak simply of the general merits of the question, as they appear to have affected the decision of the Com mitte." THE SALT-HILL MURDER.-CONFESSION OF JOHN TAWELL.—At a very full meeting of the Bucks county magis trates (upwards of 30 being present), held in the magistrates' cham ber, at Aylesbury, on Thursday last, for the transaction of county business, Dr. Lee, one of the justices, inquired of the Chairman, Sir T. D. Aubrey, Bart., if the confession signed by John Tawell, a few hours before his execution, and placed in the hands of the Rev. Mr. Cox, had been given up by the chaplain of the county prison to the magistrates, especially after the general feeling which prevailed on the subject at the late quarter sessions held for the county ? The Chairman having replied that that document wasf still retained by Mr. Cox, it was then resolved, on the motion o- Dr. Lee, that a letter be addressed to the Rev. Mr. Cox, request ing that he would deliver up the written confession of John Tawel to the magistrates at the next quarter sessions for the county of Bucks. CHILD MURDER —On Friday evening the body of, an infant, with a brick tied to its neck, was found in the canal opposite Pickford's.wharfs, Regent's-canal, Camden.town, The Royal mail steam-ship Britannia, Captain Hewitt, sailed from the Mersey on Friday afternoon with upwards of ninety passengers ; and on Saturday the Great Western, Cap tain Mathews, departed for New York, also carrying a large number of passengers. . _ The Dutch steam-ship Batavia, which was due at the St. Katharine's wharf on Wednesday morning, but which did not, owing to the extreme tempestuous weather experienced on the passage, in consequence of the high winds and heavy squalls which prevailed at sea as well as on shore, arrive until nearly twelve o'clock at night, and had thirty-six oxen, and thirty-five cows ou board, besides nearly eight hundred packages of cherries, thirteen baskets of yeast, thirteen of vegetables, and a quantity of mellons, and every other description of Dutch produce and manu facture. The cattle, half of which were in the hold, and half on deck, were landed after examination by the veterinary surgeon, and delivered by the revenue officers immediately, with the ex ception of one, which had, owing to the rough weather and heat of the hold, died during the voyage, and was, therefore, unfit for human consumption. Application was subsequently made to the authorities for the dead ox to be landed, and delivered for the purpose of being sent to the knackers. The fruit was delivered imme diately on the arrival of the revenue officers on the following morning ; and the Antwerpen shortly after arriving from Antwerp, with a number of passengers, &c., extra officers were placed on the station, to examine and deliver the baggage and effects of the two vessels, in order to examine matters, in consequence of which con. siderite arrangement, the passengers and their baggage, as well as the fruit, were dispatched in a very short space of time. Accounts are brought of very boisterous weather indeed in the Channel, and all along the English and foreign coasts, during the last few days. The death of the be tit on board was attributed to the unusually long time, in consequence of the rough weather, it was confined with others in the hold, the intense heat and effluvia of which caused it to be suffocated. The rest were all sound and in good condition, and were delivered accordingly, PROPOSED TUNNELS UNDER LONDON.—A project has been formed for uniting the Great Western Railway with the Eastern Counties line, by a tunnel from Paddington to Shoreditch, under the New-road to Finsbury.square, and then turning off. By means of branch tunnels Tottenham-court-road, Somer's.town, King's-cross, Islington, and other districts are to be benefited. Mr. Robert Stephenson is the engineer.

Military Prisoners,—lt having been officially intimated by the Secretary-at- War, that the district military prison at Fort Clarence was ready for the reception of prisoners on the Ist instant, the Commander-in-Chief has been pleased to direst that, on and after that date, all prisoners sentenced by Courts martial in this garrison to periods of imprisonment above thirty days, will be committed to Fort Clarence; accordingly, it is left to the decision of commanding officers of corps to confine prisoners in the new barrack cells. If under sentence for any period beyond that, then the prisoners are to he committed to the district prison at Fort Clarence. Since the above prison has been opened, several prisoners have arrived from different districts to undergo terms of their sentence. War-office Circular—The following circular was received at this garrison on the 4th instant, relating to the punishment of " The 46th clause of the Mutiny Act has authorised com manding officers to order that a soldier guilty of an offence which such commanding officer may not think necessary to bring before a Court-martial, shall be imprisoned for any period not exceeding seven days, either with or without hard labour, or in solitary confinement, and has further conferred upon commanding officers the power which they did not pre viously possess, of ordering that a soldier so imprisoned by their authority shall forfeit his pay for the days of such imprison ment ; the soldier having his right of appeal to a Court-martial against such order. " It has been brought to my notice that officers command. ing regiments have interpreted the words of the Act as convey ing to them a discretion to award imprisonment either with or without forfeiture of pay. " It was the intention, in proposing the clause, to confer the power of awarding imprisonment carrying with it the for feiture of pay, but not to sanction a discretion, on the part of commanding officers, to award the imprisonment but remit the forfeiture of pay. " The commanding officer has an undisputed discretion to award punishment for an offence according to the circumstances of the case. " If of an aggravated character, he may bring the offender before a Court-martial. If there are extenuating circum stances, he may determine whether anyother, and what punish. ment, that he has authority to award, may be ',inflicted. He may order the imprisonment of a soldier for any period from one to seven days ; but in no case ought a soldier, who has been punished by imprisonment, to receive, when he comes out of prison, the accumulated savings of his pay, after paying only for his actual subsistence. " By the 30th clause of the Mutiny Act, it is lawful for the Secretary-at-War to withhold the pay of an officer or soldier improperly absent from his duty • and, to avoid any future misconstruction of the intention Of the Act, I am now to ae• quaint you that whenever a commanding officer shall award imprisonment, without distinctly ordering, that pay shall be forfeited. I shall equally feel it my duty to disallow the pay for every day of absence from duty, as if such imprisonment had been awarded by the authority of a Court-martial. " This decision will not affect the authority of the command ing officer to allow the pay of a soldier, who shall have ab sented himself for any period not exceeding five days, and who shall have accounted for the same to the satisfaction of his commanding officer ; but when the commanding officer shall, by awarding imprisonment, have decided that the soldier was improperly absent from his corps, and from his duty, the pay for such day of absence must be forfeited. " You will be pleased to direct that, from the date of the receipt of this letter, no charge shall be made for the pay of a soldier imprisoned as punishmen " t. SIDNEY HERBERT." The above circular has . been forwarded t o every reg i ment and depot in her Majesty's service.
