Nov catty at all the Libraries. by the Projectors, Managers, and Shareholders of Railways, &c., Considered ;" and Mr. CIIAILLES WORDSWORTII'S COM pilatioa on " Railway Law." These are really valuable con tributions to one of the most important departments of our economic literature. f What with the monster repeal meetings in the south o Ireland, and the manifestoes of the Orangemen in the north, the Government of Sir R. PEEL must find no little difficulty in preserving anything like impartial dealing between the two factions. The Premier, however, is fortunate in his choice of a Lord-Lieutenant, who is a man not likely to be swayed either by abuse or flattery, who has had much ex perience in settling the disputes of contending parties in foreign states, and who can bear a great many hard words without reply or even suffering his temper tO be ruffled. Such a patient disposition is much wanted at the present time, for abuse is heaped either upon him or his employers almost without intermission, and it is a curious fact that of the two accusing bodies the most violent by far is that repre sented by the mild, religious, and Protestant Earl of RODEN. He has just issued a proclamation to the Protestants of the British empire, which though not so violent in its language, far surpasses any document of the kind ever issued by Mr. O'CONNELL in regard to the grievous charges made against Sir ROBERT PEEL. From beginning to end it. is one continued theme of abuse, with perhaps the exception of episodes setting forth the loyalty of that Orange body, which, under its distinguished patron, during the last reign had been all but convicted of high treason. The Noble Earl recounts with evident sorrow the suppoit given to PEEL at the elections - which turned out the Whigs. "There were indeed," says he, " misgivings among some sagacious observers of events ; but the greater number buried the past in oblivion, and again trusted those who had disappointed them ." This alludes to the Emanci pation Bill, when they were betrayed by the Minister whom high Orangemen delighted to call the " traitor Judas." We have then a long list of grievances which they impute still to • that obnoxious personage. Among others _the grant to Maynooth, the national system of education, the refusal of PEEL to grant public money for the education of the children of the Protestant poor, the Academies Bill, the dis missal of loyal Protestant magistrates, and the encourage ment of the " bold and the bad." Such are the epithets ap plied by Lord RODEN to seven millions of his fellow-subjects "ln fact," exclaims the persecuted Orangeman, "we are compelled to the startling conclusion by manifold proofs, that the policy of the Minister is to attempt to govern Ire land by the Roman Catholic party, and cannot but appre hend that heavier blows and greater discouragements are still in store for us." In other words—"MELBouENE scourged us with whips, but PEEL scourges us with scorpions." It i s gratifying to find, however, that punishment has not been inflicted without good results. There is no recommendation to restore the old dangerous and treasonable Orange Club, but there is an injunction to remain united, and give their principles effect, not in secret conclaves, but in the arena of the House of Commons. It is, in fact, Sir ROBERT PEEL'S own recipe—Register, register—a fair and legitimate mode of serving their ends, and to which no other party can rea sonably object. Let Lord RODEN adhere to this scheme for protecting Protestant interests, leave off the rabid abuse of his neighbours, and the insolent vanity of claiming all loyalty, all true religion, and all merit to himself and col leagues, and then he will find even those who oppose him ready to meet him on fair terms, and not a few cf them go along with him in support of the Protestant faith.

The accounts from the provinces were favourable, and the capital remained tran quil. Despotism, it appears, suits the Spanish taste better than liberty. night. Accounts from Paris announce a great fall in the funds and shares on Monday. A sort of panic, in fact, had taken place at the commencement of business, which was rather moderated towards the close, but still everything was flat, end prices were greatly depressed, as compared with those of Saturday and the whole of the preceding week. Every one offered to sell, and scarcely a buyer was to be found. The Three per Cents. closed at 50c. and the Fives 40c. lower than on Saturday. The railway shares, espe cially those for important lines, have fallen much more in proportion. The Northern line had suffered most, and in the course of a week had fallen fully M.; and the sub joined at the following rates :—Boulogne and Amiens, 30f. ; Avignon and Marseilles, 25f. ; Rouen and Havre, 22f. 50c. ; Orleqns and Bourdeaux, 20f. ; and Rouen nearly 19f. From the excitement that prevailed still lower prices vi ere anticipated. No political cause is assigned by the papers generally, though one of them seems to infer that the retirement of Marshal SOULT may have had some effect. The principal causes seem to be the fall in the English funds, and the notice of the Bank of England for raising the rate of discount. Relative to the anticipated re signation of Souisr, the Presse says If we are rightly in formed, all the earnest representations made yester day, in the Council of Ministers, to Marshal the Duke DE DALMATIE, could not prevail upon him to re nounce a resolution that he laid before it, to retire and devote himself exclusively to the care of his health. His col leagues are said to have ineffectually urged him to retain at least the Presidency of the Council, giving over to a succes sor in the Ministry of 'War the burden of that department. The Marshal, however, persisted in declaring that he had amply paid his debt of duty to his country, and acquired a right to repose for the rest of his days. However incon testable the grounds of this answer may be, the Cabinet has not yet lost all hope of retaining its illustrious Presi dent." The difficulty of finding a successor has been in creased by the late strange conduct of Marshal BUGEAUD, who was said to be destined for the situation, and who, ac cording to the National, continues as unmanageable as ever. " It is affirmed," says that journal, "that Marshal Bu- G EAUD has addressed to the Cabinet, before his departure from Marseilles, a note relative to the disavowal of his letter to the Prefect of the Dordogne, and to the instructions which have been sent him as to the conduct he is to pursue in Algeria. This note is not less haughty than his famous letter, loth in substance and shape. He insists, above all, with much irony upon the impossibility of pursuing and capturing ABD- EL-KADER, as the Ministry instructed him "to do, with the view of escaping before the Chambers the heavy responsibility they have assumed by the treaty of Tangiers. As for capturing ABD-EL-KADAB, he acknowledges that so important a capture would create in France a prodigious sensation; that it would confer peat weight on the Cabinet, and enable it victoriously to answer such as will reproach it with the deplorable consequences of the treaty of Tangiers; but to dream at this moment of capturing ABD-EL-KADER, and of an expedition into Morocco until he he overtaleen and destroyed, one must never has - e set one's foot in Algeria, and not have the slightest notion of the country. Marshal BUGEAUD has, it is said, displayed the utmost verve, and the utmcst irony in this part of his dispatches. In communicating it to the Council, M. G UIZOT maintained all. his composure, but M. Cusus GRIDAINE, whose indiscre tion has disclosed the details we have published, said that the bearing M. &GE-11;1;S letter read had made him perspire!' In truth, M. Buurssuu has treated the Ministr3 with great disdain, and so far from having removed some of the odium causer . ' by his confidential epistle, he has but aggravated it, by a manifestation more familiar, it is true, but more direct and scornful. The Ministry has, however, bent more humbly under the remonstrances of its revolted vizier." According to the papers, the Emperor of RUSSIA had takenl another of those rapid and unexpected flights for which he has become so celebrated. This last exploit beats completely that y which he surprised the Queen of ENGLAND, no less than I is loyal subjects at St. Petersburgh. But the other day he was on the shores of the Black Sea, and by this time , probably, he has surprised the EMPRESS by his sudden ap pearance in Italy. The following letters from Sebastorol and Milan, leave no doubt of this new freak : " SEBASTOPOL, SEPT. 26.—The Emperor of Russia arrived in this town by sea, on his way from Nicolaief. In this latter town eleven ships of war were launched in his presence. He afterwards paid s visit to the Rosklaff ship of war of 84 guns, which he ex amin-d minutely. The following day a frigate called the Kovarna, and a brig of war called the Orpheus, were launched in his pre. sence. in these two days thirteen ships of war were thus added to the Russian navy in the Black Sea. The greatest activity is ob served in all the arsenals at Sebastopol. The Emperor had an in terview with Prince Woronzoff before leaving Sebastopol. The Emperor has given up his intended voyage to Moscow, and goes from 1 are by Karkef, Kief, and Cracow, to join the Empress in Italy. The Emperor has published an ukase appointing the Here ditary Grand Duke regent in his absence. Count Ncsselrode ac companies the Emperor on his journey, and will remain in Italy till the end of the year." " MILAN, OCT. 14.—1 t has been already stated that the Empress of Russia was expected here to day. We have just learned that she will probably be accompanied by the Emperor himself. This news ws Ino doubt astonish you ; for, according to the latest ad. vice, his Majesty was on the shores of the Black Sea, where he had ordered Prince de Woronzoff to meet him. It appears that the journey of the Emperor has been as rapid as that which he made in his visit to London. He studiously avoided Vienna, and would not, it is said, pass through Prague, where is the Archdae Stephen, Governor of Bohemia, who declined, as is well known, the honour of entering the Imperial family of itussia, by refusing to marry the Grand Duchess Olga, an alliance which the Emperor desired so ardently. His coming to the Empress, however unexpected it might be, has probably surprised neither the Empress nor the persons of her suite, fes these sudden visits of the Emperor are not un usual. He sometimes even comes in disguise, and has himself, as a courtier, handed a letter to the Empress. He has assumed the dress of a private brigadier of gendarmerie, and it is said that once, when the Empress went with her suite to visit the cabin of a military colonist, isr a country where she happened to be for the first time, she was /*tuck with astonishment at beholding under the coarse cloak oft private soldier the Emperor, holding by the hand his two children, also disguised. Hence, when travelling, the Empress, and all the persons who accompany her, are always on their guard. A courier who arrives, a stranger presenting himself suddenly, a clew' of dust on the road, give birth to con jectures relative to the !emperor's arrival, and this continual ex.. pcctation of surprise causes an anxiety and emotion to every one, which embarrass considerably the courtiers and household of the imperial family of Russia." The following a,e cellaneons extracts from the papers : " The Dcbats states tha the French cruisers for the coast of Africa will leave the French ports successively for Goree, where Rear-Admiral Melatagn es will take the command of the division. LONDON, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1845. " On Saturday Marshal Soult receivcd the visit of all the Ge. nerals and superior cificors of the troops in Paris and the ban lieue, with Gcneral Schastiani v commandant of the first division, at their head. " The Minister of the Interior arrived in Paris on Saturday _ " Count Rambutesu, Prefect of the Seine, returned to Paris on Saturday from London, and immediately resumed the exercise of his functions. " A letter from Vienna of the 13th states that the Emperor of Russia hal arrived on the previous day in a small village three leagues from Vienna, and proceeded immediately for Inspruck. " We learn by a letter from Berlin, of the 14th, that there Is great scarcity of money iu that city, and that the bankers have all raised the rate of discount. "The following is an extract of a letter from Carlsruhe, dated the 16th of October M. Ronge, and his colleague, Devial, left here yesterday for Constance. Some of the inhabitants accompa nied him to the railway station, but the enthusiasm in his favour was not very great. The Archbishop of Trybourg, the head of the Catholic party in the Duchy of Baden, still refuses to cele brate mixed marriages, notwithstanding the orders of the Govern ment, if the parties do not agree to bring up the children in the Catholic faith. Steps are to be taken against the Bishop in the course of the approaching session." , On the Paris Bourse on Monday the Three per Cents. closed at 82f. 70c.; the New Loan, at 82f. 95c. ; the Five per Cents., 117 f. 60c. ; the rlear.s Railroad shares, 1,195 f. ; I,olof. ; Great Northern, 7801. ; Havre, 8401.; Avignon, I,oo o f. ; Vierzon, , 730 f. ; Fampoux, 515 f. ; Bordeaux, 647 t.

DISTURBANCES AT THE MARYLEBONE THEATRE.-- Yesterday a man named William Ashmore was brought be fora Mr. Rawlinson, at Marylebone, upon the following charge :—On the previous evening the Royal Marylebone Theatre was much crowded, owing to a vary attractive bill of performance which the management had issued, and amongst the pieces played was the favourite drama of Oliver Twist. In that portion of the second act in which Master Oliver is ushered into the presence of the renowned Mr. Fagan, one of the "gods," occupying the centre of the front seat aloft, and who felt most oppressively warm from the squeezing and pushing he was subjected to, threw off his coat, when, in en deavouring to lay it down by his side, it somehow or other slipped from his hand, and fell into the regions below. A number of persons, with the view of recovering the said gar ment, tied together as many pocket-handkerchit fs as would extend nearly from Temple-bar to Bridge-street, and amine diately lowered the knotted string of bandannas, &c., amid loud cries of " Tie one end round the coat, my boys, and we'll haul him up in a twinkling !" Some little delay was caused in transacting the business required, when the prisoner swore that he would have his coat returned to him at all events, at the same time saying that if he didn't get it directly he would throw himself over ar d get it: He had scarcely uttered the words, when he laid hold of the iron rail ing round the gallery, and, clinging thereto with both hands, threw his legs over to the outside. The pitites beneath him seeing him in such a situation, were in the greatest alarm and confusion, and many of them, fearing that he would put his threat into execution, climbed up the boxes, and in other ways made their retreat. The prisoner was taken into cus tody, and made use of such extremely violent and abusive language as to render it absolutely necessary that he should be conveyed to the station-house. Mr. Rawlinson ordered the prisoner to find bail for his keeping the peace for the next I six months. LOUGH CORRIB IMPROVEMENTS.—We have noticed with much pleasure, during the summer season and up to this period, the improvements in progress on Lough Corrib, and we have beheld, with no little satisfaction, that while the bed of the river has been considerabley deepened, and the obstructions removed, employment has been afforded to a very numerous body of our labouring population. It is now our duty to state that the embankment has been completed, and the remainingp art of the operations are in such a state offorwardness as to give an assurance that they will soon be brought' to a close. When first this undertaking was commenced, we did not look upon it in the most favourable light, but, as it advanced, we saw its usefulness, and while the government survey gave us a few figures along the banks of the river, in return for the money advanced for the prosecution of their inquiries, we have, under the present management, substantial im- Kovernents to point out. We trust, that, before the spring, we shall have the entire work finished and the waters of the splendid lake made available for the purposes of commerce. It is an inland sea, which now runs almost waste, but must shortly become useful and profitable to the community.— Galway Mercury. PRICE OF lioLn.—The premium on gold at Paris is 1 per male, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25 44 ; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25 511, it follows that gold i 5.0.53 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh, the price of gold is 430 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 7i ; and the exchange at llamburgh on London at short being 13 8, it follows that gold is 0.23 per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburgh. THE NEW PIER AT DLACKFRIARS-BRIDGE.—This pier, which has been for a considerable time in progress, was opened to the public yesterday. It is a most commodious and substantial structure, being 140 feet in length, with a dumb lighter placed in a right angle to the river of 130 feet. They have both been so constructed as not in the slightest degree to interfere with the navigation or current of the river. Two waiting rooms have also been built, which, with the pier itself, will be lighted with gas. Six persons have been appointed to attend the pier, who were on Monday sworn in at Guildhall as constables, to act in that capacity if deemed necessary, and be entirely under the control of the City autho rities. Their dress will be uniform, and each will bear a number, so that any complaint may be at once inquired into. The sum of 6d. will be charged every time a boat calls at the _ pier until such time as the cot of its construction is defrayed. MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXC HAN GE.-W EDNESDAY Only a moderate supply of English Wheat has reached us since Monday ; hence the show of samples here to-day was rather limited. The finest qualities of both red and white commanded a fteady sale, at full rates of currency. In other kinds comparatively little business was transacted. Free foreign Wheat was in fair request, and previous quotations were well supported. For corn, under lock, there was more inquiry, and prices had an upward tendency. The sales for all kinds °Marley were firm,but we can notice no alteration in value Superfine Malt moved'off steadily ; other kinds slowly, at late rates. The Oat trade was very firm, at fully the advance noticed last week. Beans, Peas, and Flour, were more in request, and the turn dearer. ARRIVALS. Barley. 1,220 qrs. 16,020 1 - I Malt. ),410 qrs.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were rather limited, and (lid not exceed 1,000 bales. The market was quiet and prices were steady. The Share Market was very heavy, and prices in some instances much lower. The Times may take credit for its advice to the public not to engage in speculative railway schemes; and the advice is really goal. And so have we, under this head, done the same on many occasions before our Morning Contemporary took up the question. But there is a point which the " City Corre.spondent" of the Times puts forward, to the prejudice of an extension of the railways, which is Lot warranted by facts. The deposits upon allotments already closed hare been made, and without question the caution-money, as the term is, is ready for handbag over to the Accountant-General upon nineteen out of every twenty of the projects started some time back. To assume that the private and joint-stock banks have been recklessly advancing money upon scrips deposited with them, and that, when pay-day comes, there will be difficulties, is a position which will not be realised. As the deposits upon the principal companies for new railways that are likely to pass the standing orders are already made,', it is not anticipated that any other severe . pressure upon the Money' Market will be expe rienced than which may, to a limited extent, be said to be felt The letter of Mr. Charles Pearson to the Chair man of the Committee of City Lands on the sub ject, and in approval of termini being formed for the Direct Manchester and the London and Birming ham Railways, in Farringdon-street, and, which appeared in The Sun of last evening, has been a subject of very general conve - sation in " City circles" this morning. Mr. Pearson most truly and correctly asks those connected with the Corporation to " look at home," and improve, by all means in their power, the interests of those who gave them power and ikfluence, whether as Aldermen or Common Coun cilmen, and not be so lavish in lending their names to ad vance railway and other schemes, which, in many instances, if carried out, must tend to damage the interests " of the City of London and the trade thereof." The admonition of the " City Solicitor" is considered by most reflective people to be exceedingly well timed. There are Graham's Town papers, at the North and South American Coffee-house this morning, to the 25th August last. The Katirs continue their depradations upon farmers, and a general meeting had been held, at which resolutions were passed, claiming further protection from the Government. It ought to be mentioned that the chief of the Kafir tribe com pelled restitution to be made when the robbers were traced, or the cattle, &c., identified. The markets in Graham's Town were brisk. The Cousol Market has been rather firm to-day. Money stock is less plentiful, and the Bear party apparently indis posed to operate further. Consols for Money have ruled from 97% to 97%, and for the Account from 97% to 97 1 ,4. The premium upon Exchequer-bills has been rather steady at 425. to 455., and India Bonds have advanced to 595. premium. The Reduced Three-per-Cents. have rallied a fraction. Bank Stock has advanced from 205 1 A to 207, and the Three and-a-Quarter per Cents. from 98% to 98%. In the Foreign Stocks the transactions continue to be very trifling. Spanish Stock has fallen from 26 1 4 to 2514 for the Actives, and the Deferred to 15 3 %. Dutch fwo and-a-Half per Cents. opened at 58% %, and have since receded to 58. Old Portuguese are quoted at 51. Mexican met with a heavy sale at 31%; and the Equador Stock, at 4 1 4. Great caution is shown in the Railway Share market in entertaining bargains in any but the best shares or scrips. All doubtful projects will soon be at zero.

Aug o.„.it , LONDON, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 22. 1845. It is gratifying to perceive that hitherto the railway share market for bond fide transactions has sustained itself in a manner not merely to justify the favourable prepossessions of those who have embarked very large investments in it, but to remove the alarms and misgivings of many intelligent lookers on,who had anticipated some serious disorganisation from at tempts that have been made to found disastrous auguries upon the aspect of the commercial world in general, and the recent notice of tbo Bank of England's intention to raise its rate of interest, especially. In our last paper on this subject we pointed out what we con ceive to be the permanent principles that now impart, and are likely to communicate, stability and safety to rail way speculation. We have already shown that vast as are the ramifications into which it has branched—stupendous as is the capital which it has already absorbed—the wants, the wishes, and the interests of society are a guarantee for the consolidation and expansion both of the one and the other to an extent infinitely more colossal. It would be folly in us to deny that we retain the opinion we have so often proclaimed, that the railway market, in common with every other branch of invested capital, must, at some period or other, participate in that general calamity and dislocation which our monetary system, as established by Sir R. PEEL'S Currency . legislation, will inevitably entail upon the country. But—looking to the amount of commercial expe rience and administrative sagacity, as well as of hitherto hoarded capital, now engaged in connexion with railway management, and having regard to the salutary influence of this combination of opulence and talent at no distant clay with the Legislature, with the Government, with the Councils of the Crown itself — we are tempted to anticipate a revision and remodelling of those fatal laws, which have so mischievously interfered with the adequate representation of property and the free operation of capital. Now we believe that if those power ful organs for the direction of public opinion, which com mitted so irreparable an error in 1525 and 1826 by the mode in which they exerted all their energies to ex cite, precipitate, and extend the " panic" of that me morable epoch, can be only induced to exhibit more of candour, prudence, and moderation, in their dealing with the march of events, all the engagements and liabilities of the railway market will adjust and arrange themselves with as little displacement and disorganisation as can possibly happen in a sphere of such multitudinous and widely ex tended operations. The ground of those apprehensions on the part of some of our Contemporaries seems to be, mainly, the number of the new projects of railway communi cation ; but, lest these misgivings should be found too readily to give way before the tests of unprejudiced inquiry and dis cuesion, they have lately provided themselves with another set of apprehensions, which regard the liabilities of a set of men who have but very recently excited their sympathies, namely, the directors and provisional committees of such com panies. As to the number of new undertakings, we can add nothing to the reasons on which we have argued, already, that the experience of the enormous benefits derived from railroads already constructed is an irresistible inducement with com munities that have not yet participated in those ad vantages to secure the future enjoyment of them by the construction of similar works for them selves. Of course in every district and portion of a dis trict where this want shall be felt, and this determination arrived at to supply it, railroads will continue indefinitely to multiply themselves. As to the liabilities of com mitteemen and directors, those too, beyond all ques tion, are absurdly exaggerated. It seems to be for gotten that the scope and conditions of these rail way adventures have assumed of late years features of entire novelty. The very members of a provisional com mittee list are to some extent on the corporate principle of a joint-stock company or bank : a guarantee to each individual of such body fur a very limited amount of responsibility on account of his connexion with it; and, to the public, for the ample responsibility of the whole associated com pany. With regard to liabilities incurred before the formation of companies, and after their formation by pro jectors, managers, and mere subscribers, prior and subse quently to the issue of prospectuses, settlement of regulations, delivery and transfer of shares, &c., &c., these subjects in volve points too numerous and complicated to allow of our discussing them here. But we not only with great con& deace, but with great pleasure, refer all our readers, who may be inter.sted, more or less immediately, in these matters, to two well-timed and able little publications, which will afford them, we think, not only amusement and information, but grounds of well-founded and confirmed confidence in the general safety of railway investments.

John Donnoghue, a greengrocer in Vere-street, was brought up charged with violently assaulting Alexander Grady, a servant of Mr. Ward, in the same neighbourhood. Grady was driving his master's van up Vere-street, and pulled to the left that three omnibuses in the street at the time might pass by. In doing so, however, the van wheel came into contact with the shutters on which Donnoghue had some cabbages exposed for sale. No damage was done other than a few cabbages being thrown off the shutters; but Don noghue struck Grady, and a scuffle ensued, in which Grady was so severely bruised as to require medical advice. Mr. Law appeared for Grady. The evidence was conflicting, and the magistrate had some difficulty for a time in acting; but one of Donnoghue's wit nesses, whose evidence was strong in defendant's favour, was proved, contrary to his own repeated asseverations, to have been acting temporarily in the employ of Donnoghue. The MAGISTRATE, having remarked with pain on this feature of defendant's case, fined him 40s. HAMBURGH MAIL. HAmnunGfr, OCT. 16.—The much. talked-of address of the magistrates of Berlin to the King of Prussia, on the state of religion, and his Majesty's answer, are Now published by the King's permission ; they fill seven columns of our papers. His Majesty, in some points of his answer, expresses extreme dissatisfaction with some passages in the address, which he says have grieved and offended him. At the beginning of his answer he says that as he had given the magistrates sufficient time to reflect in on wl!at they ought to do, he hoped they would change their views, and become sensible that it was a strange idea to read in his presence, and face to face, a longtheologicallecture. _ __ • _ FRII3OCRG, OCT. 12 . . - 1 —The Gazette of the Upper Rhine saye, in a letter from Frybourg—" The authorities of this district have given orders and directed the gendarmes to arrest the Reformer Ronge if he should come into that district, and deliver him up to justice. CHRISTIANA, Our. 6.—According to a general view of the public expenditure for the three years from Ist July, 1845, to let July, 1848, the amount is 2,634,495 dollars. The receipts are estimated at the same sum. The Stoithing has voted for the completion cf the royal palace at CJiristiana the sum of 308,000 dollars, and for furnishing it 90,00 e dollars. The household and the appanages of the King are set down in the budget at 90,000 species dollars; the a , my at 754,000 species dollars, and the navy at 316,000 species dollars ; the public debt at 190,000 species dollars. In the estimate of the reve nues the Customs were set down at 1,900,000 species dollars. MussrEn, OCT. 6.—On the evening before yesterday we received the unexpected news of the death of Baron Joseph von Dreste Vischering, Lieutenant Field. Marshal in the Aus trian service.

BRIDGENORTH, MADELY, SHIFFNAL AND LIVER FOOL DIRECT RAILWAY.—This company, which comes before the public under the support and influence of some of the great ironmasters and local gentlemen of high respect ability and wealth, will effect a saving of distance of 32 miles between Liverpool and Bridgnorth. It will also open a quicker communication between Manchester, Stockport, Chests r, Crewe, and all the important manufacturing towns of Lancashire, and bring Shiffnal, Madeley, and Bridgnorth in immediate connection with the north, enabling the great manufacturers to forward their goods direct to the western coast. The line will commence at the important borough of 13ridgnorth, proceeding along the valley of the Severn, through the Coalport China Works, to the mineral district of Madeley, and from thence proceed in a straight line to the agricultural town of Shiffnal, and there form a junction with the Liverpool and London Direct Rail way. The line, it is said, will pass through no ornamental property, and being within twenty miles in length, is likely to experience difficulty in getting through Parliament. The consent of the landowners along the course of the line has been obtained, and no engineering difficulties present themselves. The capital required for this important little pro ject is only 300,0001., divided into 15,000 shares of 201. each ; deposit 21. 2s. per share. The board of management is small compared with the legion of names attached to many of the recently projected railway schemes, but, which is of more im portance, is select, being composed chiefly of those gentlemen who, when the line is finished, will become some of its great supporters. The Committee include ten leading ironmasters of Westhromwich, Bilston, Dudley, Salop, &e. WILTS, SOMERSET, AND WEYMOUTH RAILWAY COMPANY. e have received a communication from a correspon dent, complaining of the non-delivery of the sealed certificates of this Company, and stating that many heavy transactions remain unsettled for want of them. BRIGHTON AND CHELTENHAM RAILWAY.—The shares were quoted yesterday throughout the day at to jr, a good premium, when we consider the great depreciation in the real value of the soundest schemes. WILTS, SOMERSET, AND SOUTHAMPTON RAIL • WAY.—This sterling line of railway :is highly thought of, and its stock is sought after by those safest to follow in such matters. GERMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH, DRESDEN, OCT- 13. —Our First Chamber deliberated the 11th of this month on the report made to its extraordinary committee, concerning the mo tion made by the Dean, M. Dittrich, and which motion was to the effect that every Christian individual who wishes to join the German Catholic church should be held to produce an affidavit signed by the clergyman of the church he before be longed to, and stating that the said clergyman had endeavoured to dissuade the person from so doing. The affidavit to be then laid before the Minister :,of the Interior by the commit tee of the German Catholic community, before the person in question be allowed to become its member. But although all the members of the committee agreed in the suitableness of putting a stop to proselytism in some way or other, they could not still agree as to the precise means to be employed. The majority of its members proposed to leave it, on the whole, to the care of the public authorities, but to impose at the same time a fine upon all such persons who by violence, bribery, or other objectionable means, should attempt to make proselytes to the German Catholic Church; whilst the minority of its members insisted that no one should be allowed to become a member of the German Catholic congregation, nor even to he present at its Divine service, who is not provided with a certificate of his having intimated to the minister of his former church his intention of so doing. How. ever, this latter proposal was objected to by the Minister of Public Worship, on the ground that too great a police force will be thus required to be kept on foot for the purpose, and he proposed to the First Chamber to adhere to the proposal made by the Committee. The Dean, M. Dittrich, then withdrew his original motion in giving his adhesion to the majority, whose measures were adopted by the Chamber, which latter declared also, on that occasion, that all the petitions relating to the German Catholics are thus to be considered as having been disposed of, and that it gives its full sanction to the temporary regulations concerning the German Catholic Chutherch and its members which we re brou g ht in by the of Crown. ALLEGED INFANTICIDE. —Yesterday forenoon Mr. w. Payne, concluded an adjourned inquest at the Fleece Tavern, Queen-street, Cheapside, r elative to the death of a new - born male child, which was found on the evening cf the 12th inst. at the door of Mr. Alford, No. 9, Ironmonger-lane, one of the churchwardens of St. Martin's, Pomeroy, Cheapside. On the re-assembling of the jury yesterday, sergeant Munday, of the City police, who has the case in hand, stated that 400 bills hadbecn placarded in and around the City by the churchwardens, offering a reward of 10/, for the discovery of the person who so exposed the body. He had also made minute inquiries throughout the neighbourhood; but, up to the present time, he had received no clue to the discovery of the guilty parties. The Jury, by the advice of the Coroner, returned a verdict of "Found dead." _ now. ' GRATIS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Rotherl am. Oct. 20, 1845. Sin, —An Old Subscriler would be much olliged by an swers in your next paper to the following questions:— Case—A.B. has been allotted shares and signed the deed of a railway company (whcse Act is not obtained), which scrip he has sold. _ . . . _ Query No. I—lf the Company do not obtaintheir Act, and the expenses exceed the deposits, who are liable for the further amount incurred—the directors and allottees, or the directors only ?—[The allottees, as by signing the contract th undertake to pay all further calls.] query No 2—lf the Act be obtained, are the Company bound to register the holder of the scrip as proprietor, whether a man of straw or not ?—[ No ; they may, if they like, fall back on the•original allottee.] Query No. 3—lf the scrip holder be registered does the further liability of A.B. absolutely cease, or does it only cease until the registered holder has gone through the Ga zi ?—[The liability ceases when the scrip holder is registered.) Query o. 4—lf there be several further transfers and regis trations of change of holders, and the then holder be put through the Gazette, can the Company hold A.B. the ori ginal allottee liable? Or, must they not first put through the Gazette the previously registered holders, in the order in which they have been registered?—[A.B. is the only party liable until the Act is obtained.] At Greenwich Police• court yesterday, Richard Folly, aged 15 years, apprentice to Mr. Landels, of Bride. court, Fleet-street, was brought up for final examination at this office. It will be recollected that the prisoner wa3 charged some days ago with forging two cheques in the name of Mai or and Wallace upon Messrs. Barclay and Co., the bankers, of Lombard-street. The case was clearly proved against the prisoner, who was fully committed for trial. A letter from the prisoner to his brother-in-law, written white lie was in Maidstone gaol, which was intercepted by the governor, fully admitted his guilt, and exonerated his fellow apprentice from any participation in it. RAILWAY EXCITEMENT.—'rwo persons, in the dress of officers of the buildings about the Stock Exchange, applied to the Lord Mayur at the Mansion-house for information as to the manner in which they should proceed to clear away the enormous crowds of jobbers and stags, who thronged the interior of the Auction Mart. It was, they said, quite use less in any of the servants of the concern to address them. They only gave the names of their attorneys, or treated the requests to leave the place with contempt. The Lord Mayor said that he could not interfere, as the persons spoken of did not commit obstructions in the streets or thoroughfares. The officers departed evidently disappointed. RIOT AT CHARLTON FAlR.—About nine o'elcnk on Tuesday night the visitors to Charlton fair were much annoyed and alarmed by the appearance of nearly two hundred of thecadets, attired in various disguises, some armed with cudgels, who com menced attacking several persons indiscriminately. They were partially resisted by a body of ropemakers and some few others, who were, however, speedily put to flight, many of them taking shelter in the Crown and Anchor booth, into which the cadets at tempted to force an entrance, but being foiled in this, they delibe rately smashed the whole of the exterior illuminated devices. A body of the police endeavoured to arrest their riotous and destruct live progress, but without effect, and they further proceeded to damage and destroy several gingerbread and other stalls. A party of the artillery were sent for, which the rioters having ascertained, contrived very prudently to make their retreat before the military had arrived. About five years since a similar disturbance took place, from which period, it is understood, the cadets, until this occasion, have not been allowed to visit the above ancient suburban fair. THE LONG VACATION.—The long vacation, in legal phraseology, " will cease and determine" on Thursday next, the 24th inst. Since the 10th of August there has been a legal cessation, except in some trifling matters, in law proceedings. Term begins on Monday week, as the 2d of November, the ap pointed day, falls this year on a Sunday. A VETERAN.—A Spanish journal notices the existence of a veteran of the army of Spain, who was born in 1731, and consequently is now 114 years of age. He remained in the army till he was promoted to the rank of sergeant, and afterwards received his discharge. In 1815, when 84 years old, he married a young woman of 21, by whom he has one child, aged 21. He is said to be still so strong and active that no one would think him to be more than 70. His only inntmity is total deafness. ACCIDENT TO CAPTAIN PooßE.—We regret to state that a severe accident betel Captain Poore, of the 15th Hus sars, yesterday afternoon. While riding on the Loose-road, the gallant captain's horse stumbled, fell, and rolling over him, caused a severe injury on the head, and a fracture of the leg in two places. The unfortunate gentleman was immediately carried to his real dence, and was placed under the care of Dr. Gordon.—Afaidstont Journal. Nov Er. FRAUD—We wish to caution the public against a parcel of fellows, the number of whom is unknown, who have for some time been going about the country carrying on their deceptive practices with, in many instances, a considerable amount of success. The mode in which this novel and impudent system of fraud is managed is the following :—One or more of these rascals manage by some means to make themselves ac quainted with the fact of parties having friends or relations living abroad in distant climes, and in some instances even obtain pos. session of the actual whereabouts of the parties abroad, their names, and even the town or place wherein they dwell. This is no sooner accomplished, and which in some instances must be a very difficult task, than one of them repairs to the party hue, mostly a person in humble, if not straightened, cir cumstances, to whom a present of any kind in the shape of edibles or otherwise is of much importance, and states that a parcel has artived by a ship from their relatives, men. tinning fully the names, residence, Szc., of them, in order better to deceive the person, and for the time disarm suspicion, and that-- it is lying in the baggage warehouse of either of the docks in Lon- don, waiting the payment of the proper duties due thereon, and the dock charges, freightage, and other expenses, at the same time proffering his servicos to pay the whole and possess the party of it, if, as may be expected, a certain sum of money be.advanced to reimburse him for toe outlay which he will thereby incur. This being generally proffered in the seeming kindliest manner, the fraud succeeds in many cases, and the pasty of course finds to his or her cost that he or she has been duped, and that no such package, so directed, is in existence. An instance of this was discovered a few days since at one of the great outports, where a party receiving such a piece of informs. tian did not fortunately accede to the money portion of the bargain, but made his application to the proper authorities, and the collector of the revenue, wisely suspectng the fraud, advised the party to wait until a communication could be made to the d w e h p e a n r t o m f e c n o t u r a s et itw h w i as ch f t o h u e n d p t a h rt a y t n s o ai s d u e t h h e pa package ex w is a t s ed d , e a po n d sited, the attempted fraud on the individual made at once evident. The practice of these fellows is to state that they receive their informa. tion from the mate of the vessel, mentioning a fictitious name both respecting the man and ship. It is firmly to be hoped that, after this caution, the fellows will have no further opportunity afforded them of pursuing their vile practices, which have for their object the plunder of those who are ill able to spare it, and the excitement of feelings of a private and family nature, which are raised in the most cruel and heartless manner only to be deceived and dis appointed. MORE HARDSHIP.—An Act was passed during last session of Parliament, allowing parties who had formerly com pounded upon their as , essed taxes to renew their contracts, and authorising parties who have not hitherto compounded to do so before the sth of next April. This Act will impose much in creased trouble on surveyors, clerks - to commissioners, and asses sors ; but not a syllable is there in the Act granting any one of those officers a single farthing for their increased trouble. Is this the way, Sir Robert, that you expect officials to perform their duties cheerfully ? What would you say to be thus served ? This is a " second edition" of the inadequate allowance under the In. come-tax Act. THE POTATO CROP IN lIANovER.—The potato.- disease has not, as far as is at present known, done much injury in this country, perhaps owing to the sandy nature of the soil; the export, however, is forbidden to those provinces bordering en Hob. • land where the damage done Is very great. EXPORT OFYOTATOES.—Considerable bustle pre vailed at Dundee harbour last week in shipping potatoes for the Continent. Various vessels were loading with this staple produce, and it is probable that several more will be put in requisition for the same traffic.— Caledonian Mercury. FATAL OCCURRENCE."-NEGLECT OF A ROAD Corruncron.—Yesterday afternoon, an inquest was held before Mr. St. Clair Bedford, Coroner for Westminster, at the George, Wardour-street, Soho, on the body of Mr. Alfred Richard Harrison, aged 30, girVersmith and jeweller, of Pickett-street, Strand, - whose death occurred under the following melancholy circumstances. George Hill, tailor, No. 9, Doune-terrace, Hackney, stated that about ten o'clock on the night of Saturday, the 4th instant, he was walking along Portland-place, Clapton, when, hearing a shout from behind, he looked back, and saw a gentleman (who proved to be the deceased) on horseback corning along, and. the rider at that time seemed to be righting himself in his saddle. Presently the gentleman passed him, and had. only proceeded a few yards before his horse stumbled over some dirt in the road, and he was thrown head foremost to the ground. Witness, on the accident occurring, went up to the deceased, and asked him if he was hurt, but receiving no answer, he raised an alarm, and assistance arriving, deceased, who was found to be insensible, was carried to Mr. Howell's. surgeon (in the neighbourhood), and from thence home to his friends in Wardour-street. By the Coroner : The road had been taken up to repair the sewers, and the mound of dirt over which deceased's horse fell was between. three and four yards from the pathway, and about eighteen. inches in height. There was no light to warn any person of danger, but on the other side of the heap of dirt there would have been plenty of room to have passed. The horse, when witness first saw it, he should judges was going at the rate of from ten to twelve miles art hour. Deceased seemed to have perfect control over it. There was a gas lamp about 30 yards from where the; accident happened, but it did not show a light on the spot. Mr. J. Moncriff Amott, surgeon, No. 2, Burlington-street, said, that he attended the deceased from the sth instant till his death, on Saturday last, at his brother's, a gold•• smith, Sze.. in Wardour-street. On first seeing him he Wll3 labouring under concussion of the brain, and paralysis of the left side, which injuries caused his death. It furth' r appearing that subsequent to the accident to deceased others, though not of a serious nature had occurred, and that the road was considered to be in a very dangerous state, The jury, many of whom felt inclined to return a verdict of manslaughter against the contractor of the roads, under tl,e commissioners of sewers (Mr. Crooks), eventually ad journed the inquiry, which lasted four hours, till Priday next.
