By order, F. W. M'BLAIN, Secretary. London Offices, 5, Gresham-street, Bank, Aug. 1, 1845. The united company will be called "The Coventry, Nuneaton, Birmingham; and Leicester Railway Company." The line will commence at Coventry, and. proceed by Bedworth and Chllvers Coton to Nuneaton, thence to Hinckley and Leicester, with a branch from Nuneaton to Birmingham. Care will be taken to provide the most complete accommodation for all the intermediate places. The superior advantages of the projected line are already exten sively known, as was shown by the great demand for the original shares of this Company, and has teen thither proved by the circum stance that a rival scheme, with nearly the same project, .has been since started. This Company, however, is in possession of such exclusive advan tages, by the local support of influential landowners and other parties, added to priority of project and a favourable report of the Board of Trade for a very important portion of the line (being the only part which has yet been submitted to that department), that it is obvious that this Company will go to Parliament with every prospect of success. In order to comprise the two schemes. in one Act, and to invest the Provisional Directors with the requisite powers, they have de termined, under the advice of counsel, to have a new Parliamentary contract and Subscribers' agreement executed, and to issue new scrip of the " Coventry, Nuneaton, Birmingham, and Leicester Com pany," in exchange for the scrip of the Coventry and Leicester Junction Railway Company, the Coleshill Extension, and the Coventry, Bedworth, and Nuneaton Company. By the terms of the arrangement with the Coventry, Bedworth, and Nuneaton Company, the Shareholders in that Company will receive ono share in the Coventry, Nuneaton, .Birmingham, and Leicester Company, in ex change Rot - each share held by them in the Coventry, Bedworth, and Nuneaton Company, on payment of a deposit of 11. ss. per share, and signing the Parliamentary contract and Subscribers' agreement. • By order, HENRY CASSIN, Secretary. 3, Church-court, Old Jewry, London, .July 23, 1845.

It haS been for some time the object of her Majesty's Commis sioners of Metropolitan Improvements to carry out the important plan of an Embankment of the Thames, so as to iMprove the naviga tion, and,' at the same time, provide a splendid drive and prome nade along the Middlesex shore, from Whitehall;place to Blackfriars bridge. The attainmenta these great objects has hitherto been impeded by various difficulties, and it is now proposed to obviate the most im pdrtant of them, by the formation of a company to execute Mr. Page's plan of the embankment, being that which was selected by the Metropolitan Commissioners, and to combine with it an Atmos pheric Railway, from Hungerford-market, or its neighbourhood, to the vicinity of London-bridge and the Bank, and from thence to the Blackwall Railway, near Fenchurch-street, with a branch across the liver, to join the various railways terminating at the London-bridge station. It is obvious that this great undertaking cannot be carried into effect without the sanction of the Government and the City authori ties. For the purpose of obtaining this the Provisional Directors have been for some time in communication with the Metropolitan Commissioners, to whom proposals have been submitted regarding the execution and management of this work, for, which they have every reason to expect a favourable consideration. Fully impressed as the promoters of this scheme were, from the beginning, with the importance of the extensions to the Blackwall and London-bri ige railways, it was not their intention to have pro ceeded, in the.tirst instance, further than the vicinity of London bridge and the Bank; but they have received such offers of support and eo-operation from many influential parties anxious to promote a junction with these lines, that they have resolved, after the fullest consid, ration, to enlarge their original plan, in order to include the whole of these objects in one complete and comprehensive scheme. Considering the advantages which must naturally result from con necting so many railways, viz., the Blackwall, Eastern Counties, and Northern and Eastern on the one side, and the Brighton, South Eastern, Greenwich. and Croydon, on the other, with Charing-cross and the intermediate stations, there is every reason to expect that a plan so comprehensive will receive the most cordial support from all parties interested in these various lines. From the community at large the promoters of this scheme rest their claims for support on the following important public grounds :- 1. The fordaation, without expense to the country, of a river-side terrace, equally striking in point of appearance and utility, affording a spacious drive and promenade, available for the purposes of health anti recreation, and at the same time relieving one of the greatest thoroughfares to the City from part of the ♦ast traffic which now obstructs it. . _ . . . 2. The improvement of an important part of the navigation of the river, together with the sewerage, and the removal from its northern shore of the unsightly accumulations of mud and unwholesome mat ter which new so disfigure it. 3. The connexion of the prinCipal towns and sea-ports of the southern and eastern colsta with the centre of the metropolis- Great pains have been taken by the engineer, in connexion with the public accommodation, to provide for the interests of those whose property may be affected by thIS work, and by the adoption of the atmospherie principle all inconvenience to the passengers and public frem noise, smoke, &c. will he avoided. The engineer has estimated the works to be constructed, and, as far as possible, valued the properties that itwill be necessary to purchase, and, upon these data, be feels satisfied that the proposed capital may be relied upon for covering every expense. The trovisional Directors have endeavoured, by the closest inves tigation, to come to some accurate result as to the traffic between the projected termini ; but this is one of those peculiar cases in which it is exceedingly difficult to form an estimate which may not appear exaggerated, and they are, therefore, induced rather to submit the following general calculation. and to state that they feel quite con fident that an ample return will be realised to afford a very good remunerative interest for the capital invested. Nobody can reason ably doubt this, when they see the multitudes that are continually passing and repassing to and from the City, on foot, in omnibuses and other carriages, steam-boats, &c., without taking into considera tion the very largely increased traffic that must accrue by the junc tion with the above-mentioned railways and their many projected extensions. When it is remembered 'Also that the transit will occupy less than five minutes, instead of, r6ifit present, twenty minutes to half an hour, this saving alone of valuable time to men \of business, arc., must insure a powerful support to this undertaking.

RAILWAY FROM MACCLESFIELD, passing close to the Towns of Leek, Cheadle, and Uttozeter, to the Trent Valley Railway north of Lichfleld. PROVISIONALLY REGISTERED, The Line will commence at the Terminus of the Manchester anti Birmingham Railway •at Macclesfield, and passing by the 'hlyard Reservoir to Leek, will proceed by the Qhurnet Valley to Conseil, thence close to Cheadle and Tean, and by Uttoxeter, Bagots Woods and Abbots Bromley down the Blythe, to a point ou the Trent Valley Railway north of Lichfield, communicating near there with one of the proposed lines from Dudley or Wolverhampton. A glance at the map will show that this will be the most direct line for the London and Manchester traffic, uniting these two great termini by the shortest practicable route in connexion with existing railways, will completely accommodate the local trail* and throw open several extensive Coal fields and some thousand acres of Wood land to Manchester', the Potteries, and other great marts of the kingdom. already This f i nbysot.mhee Boardofits of principal Tradte fcaeciaa:4plissrettib‘,„7ol ysioeanoottihaith,allitilifietadt, by the Churnet Talley Company— 0 pmanairtyles JL l t i in t i o ice c t e i o u fi p ri o i unoccupied and passing not t throughie l r i f is vrie with and the teent the p re : o (o4 p o fn u s t d d e Crewe to Derby will also well accommodate the potteries, giving to that important locality a direct route to London, Birmingham, and of e o here Railway, existing district, Railway. the §outh, to Liverpool and the North, and to Derby and the East. and will also afford a transit for the Eastern counties traffic from Derby to Manchester.

Since the formation of the Company for making this railway, and the allotment of the Shares for that part of the line between Chelms ford and Bury, the practicability, paramount importance, and supe rior advantages of its plan have been so uneolvocally recognised by the Board of Trade, and by the Committee of the House of Commons for the railways of Essex, Suffolk, and Norfolk, that the Provisional Committee have determined to now, at once, adopt the extension of their line, originally projected, from Bury to join the Norwich and Brandon line at Thetford; thereby to complete the shortest and best communication between London and Norwich, in the direction of the old road, through all the chief central towns of Essex and Suffolk, and at the same time to open a very direct communication with the great trunk lines of the north and west. For these important objects, to be secured by an extension of only 12 miles, to' connect Bury St. Edmunds and Thetford, the Provisional Committee propose to. increase the capital 250,0001., by the issue of 10,000 additional shares ; and, for full particulars of the entire plan, refer to their original prospectus. The Chelmsford and Bary line not having been projected In time to bring It before Pz'rliament in the present session in a substantive form, it has been but imperfectly, and merely incidentally, in opposing other lines, that its merits could be at all brought under the notice of the Board of Trade or of the ComMittee of the House ; but the strong impression made, notwithstanding, in its favour, is obviously appa rent, both in the reports of the one and in the decisions of the other. The Board of Trade, in stating the considerations upon which it ad vised the rejection of the Norwich Direct line, reported (March 4th, 1845) that " It is necessary to advert to a railway called the Chelms ford and Bury Railway, projected, but not brought before Parliament, the plan, and section, and traffic tables of which have been submitted to the Board of Trade. This railway appears tons to accommodate a more populous district than that intended to be traversed by the London and Norwich Direct Railway. Its section shows that it may be done at a moderate coat ;" (while) " there is a strong local feeling in its favt ur, evinced by the memorials which have been re ceived by the Board of. Trade from the inhabitants of Braintree, Halstead, Sudbury, and other places between Chelmsford and Bury." The Committee of the House of Commons have since not only rejected the Norwich Direct and BUry and Cambridge lines, but the Chairman (Lord Sandon) previous to giving a decision against the Norwich Direct, took occasion to observe that "the Committee was decidedly in favour of the Chelmsford and Bury scheme." To these public' testimonials in favour of the Chelmsford and Bury line, the Provisional Committee have the satisfaction of aiding, that by a Special arrangement with the solicitor of the Eastern Counties Railway, they are assured of the concurrence and good offices of that important Company in the formation of their line. In allotting their original Shares, the Provisional Committee ne cessarily rejected numerous applications, of which it may be pre sumed that a considerable number were from parties as highly re spectable as any of those to whom Shares could then be given; and in the distribution of the additional Shares a reasonable preference will be given to original applicants, as well as to original Share holders. Applications for Shares, in the annexed form, may be made to the Secretary, at the Company's Offices, 61, Moorgate-street, Lon don ; to the Solicitors, or any of the Local Agents ; or to the fol lowing brokers :—Messrs.

It was also manifest that the reasons assigned by the Railway Board preferring the scheme of th e South Eastern Compan y no t on ly were without weight with th e P arliamentary Comm i ttee, b u t were in all important respects entirely unsustained in proof. The Provisional Committee of M anagement h ave o bt a i ne d a valu able advantage in their present scheme by securing the co-operation of Mr. Locke, acting in consultation with Mr. Vignola, their en gineer, in fixing the capital of the Company, and settling the line and the engineering features. '-no project, of which the outline is now put forth, will, of course, be subject to such modifications as may hereafter be deemed desirable. For the purpose of carrying out this complete and comprehensive sc h e me, it is proposed to raise a capital of 3,300,0001., to be divided into 66,000 shares of 501. each, and that these shares shall be allotted on a present deposit of 21. 10s. per share. It is proposed that the owners of Scrip Certificates in the original scheme are to have the option of receiving an equal number of shares in the new project, upon surrendering their present Scrip, and upon payment of 10s. 6d. returned per share, which , Ivith the MlKScrip, will make up the r equ i red depos i t of 2 / . 105. per share; remaining to be on the o ma r n e i are thereupon to be enti t l e d to a preference i n the allot dginttnilaoelfyt-he remaining shares to the extent of three new shares for every two original shares so exchanged. In default of payment of the deposits at the time to be appointed, or of the subsequent in stalments to be called for after the Act shall have been obtained, the s h a res will be forfeited. All persons desirous of availing themselves of this option and pre ference, are required to give notice thereef by letter addressed to the Prov i s i on al Committee, 011 or before the Bth of August next, and s t a ting their proper names, residence s , a n d descriptions; according to the subjoined forms , Nos. 1 and 2, and are to deliver in their existing when required, or in default they ge of such option and preference.

The great attraction of the evening, however, was Taglioni. It was her last ap pearance, and long before the doors were opened, the avenues to the Opera were crowded by the admirers of the deesse assembled to tray homage at her shrine. Never did Taglioni appear to greater advantage than on Saturday evening, and never were bouquets more plenti fully showered upon her. Can it be that she is about to quit the scene of her triumphs now, whilst she is in the zenith of her powers ? Let us hope that, for once, those veracious chroniclers, the bills, have unwittingly deceived us, and that this is not the last appearance of Taglioni.

CHARGE OF SHOOTING. AucusT 2. This morning, a little before the. litN. R. Moore, incumbr.t t 4 Efio county magistrate, was walking up Fishergate, he was fired at by a men opt" the. l3ennatir.. Het was instantly apprehended by Mr. Moore, and handed to a policeman, by whom he was brought to the Town hall, and examined before a full bench of county magi strates, including Mr. J. Cunlitre, in the chair, the Rev. C. E. Kendal, Mr. R. Newsham, Mr. S. 110 - crocks. and Mr. G. Jackson. The Rry. R. Moore, Who sat upon the . bench, was sworn. He said :—As I was walking np Fishergate this morning, at alittle before II o'clock. from Messl-s. l'ilington and Walker'soflice, to the i rtiwn-hlll, I heard a report of fire•arms when about half-way up Fishergate. The gun or pistol, whichever it was, was discharged close to me, and the smoke came about my head. Im mediately afterwards I was struck with a hard substance upon my right breast. Looking round to see who had thrown it, I saw that man (pointing to the prisoner). Richard Bennett. He looked conscious of having done something wrong, and, knowing his character pretty well, I went up to him and seized him, when several per sons Caine about us. I called for the police. Two men came up,. and one man brought a pistol and said, " Here's the pistol." He said, "He (the prisoner) shot it. I saw him shoot it, and then throw the pistol at you." A policeman came up, and I told him to take him to the Town-hall, where I was going, and the magistrates would investigate the matter. This is all I know. The Rev. Gentleman's evidence having been taken down and signed, the prisoner was asked if he had any questions to ask the prosecutor, but he declined asking any. John Harrison was next examined. He said, I am a carder, and live in Riley-street, Preston. I was in Fishergate this morning about five minutes to eleven o'clock. I saw the prisoner fire a pistol at that gentle man (Mr. Moore), and afterwards throw the pistol at him, which struck him upon the right breast. Saw 'aim take aim at Mr. Moore. The prisoner was close to Mr. Moore when he fired. I was just behind the prisoner. The prisoner faced Mr. Moore. I picked the pistol up on its falling after being thrown against that, gentle man's breast, and have since given it to police-constable Williams. The prisoner declined asking the wit'aess any ques tions. Adam Capstick, carder, of London-road, said—l was in Fishergate this morning with the last witness, John Harrison. I saw the prisoner fire a pistol at Mr. Moore; he was close to Mr. Moore, perhaps three yards distant. Prisoner then threw the pistol at him, and hit him ton the right breast. The ball from the pistol passed Mr. Moore's coat, and went across the street. The prisoner said he would not ask any questions. Mr. Cunliffe—The last witness says he saw the ball pass Mr. Moore's coat and cross the street. Prisoner—He has very quick eyes then. William Kirby, Christ Churchyard, reeler, being sworn, said—l was in Fi s h erga t e this moaning, and saw Mr. Moorel and the prisoner. I saw t}:e prisoner take a pistol out of his pocket. He fired tnstantly, but I can not swear that he aimed at Mr. "ttloore ; he then threw the pistol at him, and hit him on the right breast. Robert Sneyd Williams, 'olice-constable, said—l re ceived the prisoner into wastody, and charged hith with having tired at Mr. Moore ; he replied, " We will see about that another day." I received the pistol from, John Harrison, which I now produce ; the smoke I saw arise was, apparently fr6m fire-arms. The prisoner said—lle (Mr. Moore) has accused me of a crime lum not guilty of. I only want to make it known. The Chairman then said—You are committed to Lan caster Castle to take your trial at the assizes for shooting at Mr. Moore. HOLY ISLAND.—During the past week sonic dis coveries have been made upon the island which are likely to be interesting to the antiquary. The workmen employed in forming a road-way from the lime-kilos to the place of ship ment came upon the foundations. of some buildings, and as neither tradition nor history assign any habitation or structure to that part of the island, the workmen's curiosity was very much excited; and along what is called the Snook, on the north side of the island, they traced a line of foundations which oc cupy in extent about an acre and a half. In the course of their operations they found two coins of the reign of Ethelred, and, supposing that to have been the period when these foundations were formed, they must have existed for upwards of a thousand years. 'f he cathedral was built in Ihe reign of William Rufus, 200 years after Ethelred. The coins have been shown to us, and are certainly a great prize to the antiquary. We were in formed they are Saxon sticas; they are in wonderful preserva tion, the superscription being unmutilated. The coin is made of a composition apparently, being neither silver nor brass. A stica, we understand, was worth about 2d. or 21d.
