SECRETARY—WiIIiam Ranyard, Esq. first object of this line is to connect the town of llirrningham, I.o::.ester, with the eastern oast by the nearest route, supply an important link of communication between tho town :oalding and the eastern coast with the Western and Midland C,nmencintr at the Spalding station of the Norwich, Dereham, Ly,, 7) , and Holbeach Railways, the line will proceed by Bourn, Withim, Castle Bytlunn, South Wy!ham. and Wymondham, to a on the Syston and Peterbomugh line of railway near Melton -31-o,,'‘ray, thus forming, by the Syston awl Peterborough and 3lid, lam': Counties Railway, an almost direct route to Leicester, and the • to •oventry and 11l mia 4 ham by the proposed Coventry, Nun 11011, Lei ester, and Birmingham Railway. 1 - !: • nrojected line will form th, most direct communication be• tae, the eastern and mill ,nd districts of the kingdom, and will, by of the proposed lines across the county of Leicester, via 8ur :0,,-,-,00-Trent, to Stafford, bring the markets of Lincoln, Nortblk, ,;! rJ -hire, and 'Nor h Wah , , nearer to eath other by many metes • ny othur line of '1! form, with oth,r ro cctc 9 ral!ways. an almost direct line acr tt - w kinzdOin, from Yarmouth. via Norwich, on the east, to Aiwry , twitb, via Newt,n and Shrcwsbur. , , im the west. 1;1,y ,!! vri:: not exact thirty miles. There Is no tunnel ,111::11', or c, , lftliking of any importance necessary ; the line from Bourn to Sit,,idintr, a distance of about twelve miles, is very level, and may be constructed at a small cost. . . . It will secure the advantages of railway communication to a tract of country at present destitute of this accommodation, besides open ing out sources of trade undeveloped for want of it" means of transit. The contra! inY!:, - ,,1 districts have felt greatly the want of direct communication the coast; and this line will at once supply the deficiency to th, _ • - ~ r part of Staffordshire and Leicestershire. It will afford a , for the Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and Lei :cestershire coal into districts heretofore entirely dependent upon supply from the north at high prices: it will also secure the advan tag, of an unlimited supply of lime from the Leicestershire works, to the agricultnr,il districts of Lincoln, which are at present only supolied at very high rates; and, in return traffic, the midland dis tricts will n.tain the advantage of a direct transit for the stock and agricultural produce of Lincolnshire and Norfolk. Several proposed lines of railway converge at Spalding, which is the nearest point on the eastern coast for the midland counties, and connected by the River Welland with the German Ocean. ... . The proposed capital will he suffi,lent for the construction o; the necessary - works and every subsNiucnt expense ; and the income derivaide from the traffic in passengers between Birmingham,.Co ventry, Leicester, Derby, Melton, Spalding, and Boston, the trans port of corn, cattle, and ogler produce of the great agricultural districts through which the line passes to the principal consuming districts, and of coals, lime, and staple commodities for the Inland districts, will he sufficiently ample to warrant the outlay. • ~ The Parliamentary surveys have been commenc,d, and are now in active progress, and contracts have been entered into which en sure sufficient time for complia,ce wills the standing orders. Forms of application for shares, plans, and prospectuses may be had of the Solicitors ; also at the offices of the Company, 4, TN faivr-ivare, Charing•cross, where applications lor shares, ac cow panied by respectable relereme.i, may be addressed to the Previ sional Committee.

Hitherto, at whatever expense 1 they have been formed, the aggregate of millions in 7 vested in bond fide lines now in full operation, has yielded a very handsome return of interest The amount of accommodation for the simple objects of travelling from one part of the kingdom to the other—the facilities for, I and consequent enlargement of, the domestic and, to a great extent, the foreign trade of the empire—the removal of pre judice4—the diffusion of that knowledge and those en lightened views which are the results of personal observation only, and, therefore, identified in a peculiar manner with the establishment of railr oa d s — t h e enormous an d economical machinery they supply to Government fir the transmission f troops, stores, intelligence with almost intellectual rapidity; these are properties that would alone entitle them to that respect and patronage which they FO largely receive from a liberal public Now, if the prodigious sums expended on the promotion of the lines that are partially or entirely completed and work ing. have turned out to be so well invested, the fair presump tion is in favour of a sitnilar result. attending the outlay of that capital which will be called for by the numerous pro jects lit will, next year, be commenced our of the multitu dinous number of those announced to the public, that will be either abandoned, or speedily relinquished, after a few steps of preliminary progress shall have been made in them. It is found that the receipts on working lines have already so wonderfully exceeded all that was anticipated from them; that the mere surplus of the returns over the market rate of interest, represents a new and realised capital of very many millions sterling. When we reflect to how large an amount of engineering talent, and mechanical industry and labour, and landed and chattel property that had previously, lain dor mant, and but for these great works must, in all probability, have continued to do so, these railway undertakings have given development, retnunerating wages, and unremitting employment, we must acknowledge that domestic capital has never been more wisely or beneficially employed among us, irrespectively of the consideration of the superior profits it has earned in these applications of its productive powers. We may be thought bad political economists for doing so, though we should find little difficulty, we think, in esta blishing the validity of the grounds on which our appre hensions are founded—when we confess to the painful im pressions under which we regard the immense and yet growing application of British capital to foreign railways. No temporary advantages which our countrymen may derive from investing their money in them can compensate for the impolitic improvidence with which we are assisting other nations to rival, with an implement supplied by ourselves, our own success in extending and consolidating, by means of railwaye, the foundations of our domestic prosperity and national grandeur. But to devote all the energies of that implement to these beneficial ends in our own country, and at the same time to impart the full benefit of their exercise in the shape of an immense outlay of remunerating wages on our own domestic labour, does seem to us to be among the most salutary, and wise, and permanent efforts upon which British enterprise can employ its all but boundless resources and sagacity, as well as its capital. We wish to direct the attention of our readers to a corre• spendence between Mr. CHARLES PEARSON, the City Solicitor, and Mr. W. H. ASHURST, Chairman attic Committee of City Lands, and Solicitor of the Direct London and Manchester Railway Company, which appears in another column. on the subject of providing a Central City Ter minus for all the great northern lines. The sub ject is one not of mere local, but of vast national im portance. As has been justly observed by Mr. ASHURST in his letter to the members of the Corporation, transmitting Mr. PEARSON'S communication to himself, " the economy of time is to a man of business as important as the saving of expense in the transit of the goods in which he deals," and at present it is a matter of universal observation, that from the distance of the stations in the outskirts of London, and the time consumed by stoppages in the streets an d o th er accidental causes, this comparatively insignificant journey takes wore time and causes more trouble than travelling on the railroad for thirty or forty miles. But not only will the construction of this great Central Terminus be an economy of time—it will be an economy of money also' " The cost of cartage to the rail at Manchester and from - the terminus in the outskirts to the City amounts to more than one-sixth of the charge for the whole one hundred and ninety-seven miles. Upon goods from manufacturing towns nearer to London, the proportionate expense of cart age of course tells with still greater effect." In every point of view, therefore, as regards railways themselves, and a ll connected with them, whether as shareholders, passengers, or transmitters of golds, a Central City Terminus is a thing greatly to be desired. We all remember the furious opposition which, some years since, the Corporation of London, backed by the citizens, made to every pro position for bringing railways into the heart of the City. Their vehemence on the subject forced the rail way companies then struggling into existence to form termini in the outskirts of the City, and the citizens congra tulated themselves that they had, by their public spirit, saved themselves from the noise and smoke and dirt of railways, and preserved their city pure and uncorrupted. But now " a change has come o'er the spirit of their dream." They begin to perceive, that " where the honey is, there the bees are found"—that the termini of the rail ways in the outskirts are, in fact, the centres of so many improving towns—and that the localities in which these im provements take place will (if the City do not provide it self with similar accommodation) speedily draw around them business establishments of every description, and will ultimately drain from the City a large portion of the trade, which, if it be allowed a fair start in the race of improvement, its central ;situation aid existing commercial pre-eminence will infallibly secure. -4 o that for their own sakes the citizens of London will no longer oppose a proposition which is fraught not only with benefit to the community at large, but which must be also of incalculable advantage to zhemselves ; besides, the success of the atmospheric principle has removed all objections on the score of noise, smoke, and danger of fire—the only reasonable objections that could be made to the bringing a railroad into the City. With regard to the line which Mr. PEARSON proposes to take, we consider that its formation will confer a great benefit, both morally and physically, on the inhabitants of the City of London. It will be surely no small benefit to the health of the community to do away with the present un wholesome, ill-drained, and worse ventilated neigh. oourhood of Field-lane and Saffron-hill, and substitute for it a covered railway, well lighted and ventilated, with a public thoroughfare running along its roof, flanked by wel!- built houses, in which, in the open light of day, a legi timate and honest commerce will be carried on, instead of the present dishonest traffic for which Field-lane is so noto rious. A moral and a physical pestilence will have been removed, and this alone ought to secure to the proposition the -upport cf every philanthropist. The raising of the level of llolboin-bridge, and thus diminishing the declivity of Snow and Holborn-hills, will also be a great public benefit, •tnd prevent those accidents by which at pre sent many a valuable horse has been rendered utterly useless, and not unfrequently life itself has 'seen destroyed. For these reasons we trust that the City Lands Committee will at once accede to the petition of the Direct Manchester Company for the purchase of Farringdon inarket as a railway terminus, and to that of the Binning 'tam and London Company for the purchase of the site of the Fleet Prison fsr a similar purpose. If these companies obtain termini in the City the other railways must do the same thing, and we may shortly expect to hear of the Great Western extending their line from Paddington to London. i'he sooner they do so the better. - Madrid journals of the 13th have been received. The ac •ounts from the provinces relative to the collection of the ;ew income-tax are very favourable—the contribution: oming in with wonderful punctuality. At several places, among others Barcelona and Falset, earthquakes had been felt, and at the latter place the inhabitants became so Tightened that they repaired to the church in crowds and 'tiered up prayers for the preservation of the place. No Atblic transactions took place on the Bourse, According to the official French journal, the public anxiety respecting the movements of ABD-EL-K &DER had Inch abated. No new attack of importance had been made Ind General LAMORICIERE had, by great exertion and di,- ,)atch, sent troops to those quarters where any hostile ope .ations might be expected. That journal contains the follo%. lig extract from a letter on the subject, dated Algiers, Oct. t i :—" The accounts from Oran are more favourable. The rebellion seems to be for the present confined to rather a Darrow circle, or between the four sides of the square formed , y the sea, the Tafna, the parallel to the sea running through flemcen and Lalla Maghroia, and the frontier of Morocct. this great movement, the commencement of which had been narked but by disasters, had struck everybody, and demo •alised the bulk of the people of this city ; the Marshal's tbsence from Algeria, and that of General DE LAMORICIERE 'rom the province of Oran, were real and serious Ctuses•o' anxiety. Confidence lms now revived. ABD-EL-KADEV, after being bold and skilful, has stopped and hesitated, either pontaneously, or owing to the nature of the army he con:- 'lands, and has not gone on with decision. Time has beell or us, and now the evil will not increase. On arriving at )ran, General DE LAMORICIERE has assemble.' about him soinc .olated c , rps; the towns or posts are sheltered against ah, drions attacks, and the General in person was, on the sts istant, in front of ABD-EL-KADER, ready to combat hill. vherever he might move. We await with impatience th‘ arrival of the Marshal, and of troops from France." The domestic news in the Paris papers is generally without utere,st. According to accounts from St. Petersburg, the .ustom-houses between Russia and Russian Poland were to be removed at the commencement of the new year, so thai for the future there will be a free commercial intercourse be tween the two countries. The Journal des Debuts publishes it length the address of the Municipality of Berlin to tin KING, relative to the German Catholic Church, with hi: MAJESTY'S reply. We have already published an outline o' these documents, and find little new in the KING'S answe•, except his manifest disapprobation of the step taken by th 4 magistrates, and a bitter reproof for th ukewarmness hitherto in the cause of Protestantism. " I must deny," said Le, " that the civic authorities have any right to mix indi rectly or directly in the affairs of the Evangelical National Church ; but I willingly concede to them a moral competency if they had fulfilled in an eminent degree their duti, as patrons of the churche , , it th had under other circumstances, the same interest fbr church mat ten, and . bad, above all, religiously maintained the bond of Protestant brotherhood. But, gentlemen, with my hand on my heart, it is not possible for me to recognise these moral attributes in the Court of Aldermen. Cast a glance at the spiritual condition of our city. In no city, great or small, of our country, is the care of souls so ill provided for. One almost incredible but true circumstance must be particularly placed under view. It is, that under FREDERICK WILLIAM 1., when the city reckoned between 50,000 and 70,000 inhabit ants, the number . of pastors not proportionally but strictly numerically was more considerable than it is to-day, with 400,000 inhabitants , in Berlin."

The sales of cotton at LivNrl 3 oo l , yesterday, were about 5,000 bag., of which speculators took 2,000. There was no change in prices, 250 Surat went at 3d. to 3%c1.; 50 Pernam at 7d.; 50 Maranham at 6d. to 6yi. ; and 4,650 American at aid. to sd. per lb. Shares were flat, and prices lower. The panic anticipated, and worked into expectant form by the Times has yet to be demonstrated. Thing; this morning look brighter, and confidence is more appareot. For any one to have imagined that a moiety of the new schemes started lately would be brought before Parliament in the next session were a pure absurdity, but still our contemporary appesrs to think that such will be the case, when so large an amount as 50,000,000/. is stated to be required for the necessary Par liamentary deposits. If the sum to be deposited be so large, so much the better, as it shows, at least, that the people of this country have an amount of capital at command, that cannot be equalled by the population of any other kingdom in the world. As to bubble schemes, the sooner they are rooted out of the market the better; and a panic among this class of projects would prove a benefit, not an injury. We are pleased to observe a decidedly better feeling in the Stock markets today, and a reaction upwards, which, we trust, will become strengthened as the public make them selves better acquainted with the views of the panic -mongers, viz., to take advantage of a rush by sellers in order to c me in cheap, and profit by the subsequent restoration of confi dence. Consols have been 965, to 974 for present transfer, and 97% to 914 for Account. The premium on Exche quer-bills has / 13een advanced to 445. and 455.

The Foreign market is rather flat as regards Dutch Bonds, but steady for most of the other investments. Mexican have been fir-313a for the Actives; Portuguese Four per Cents. are 57 to 58 1 / 2 ; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are quoted 58% to 59 ; Brazil Stock is worth 85.

I 2V i COURT OF ALDERMEN. ,1_; t7.*„,_, ,- ttl Yesterday a Court was held for the dispatch of bugness.7i -- --= - __ 2 s, DEBTORS AND PRISONERS CHARGED WITH OFFENCE,Ii: `-=•-• Alderman 'WILSON brought up the report of the Gao , • ia Di mittee on the subject of an application to the Sectstk State relative to the Debtors' Prison in Whitecross-street, and 31. i _ stcs the Giltspur-street Compter. The report, which recommends a very important change, is as follows :—" In obedience to an order of this court. of the 7th day of October, whereby we were directed to consider the present overcrowded state of the House of Correction in Giltspur-street, the want of classification and proper separa tion of prisoners, with a view of applying an early remedy, and to report our opinion thereon; we, your special Com mittee, do certify that we have proceeded in the ccarsidera tion of the said reference and have referred to the several proceedings which have taken place with reference to the enlargement or removal of the Giltspur•street Compter and House of Correction, and it appearing that the Governors of Christ's Hospital have abandoned their idea of purchas ing the said Compter, we turned our attention to - the best course tc be adopted, and inasmuch as, by the altera tion in the law relative to debt, the number of priseners con fined in the Debtors' Prison is considerably reduced, and the said prison is built upon a larger area than is requir e d f i r it s present parp, , ses. we are of opinion that, instead of enlarging the present Giltspur-street Compter, or building a Compter at the back of, or adjoining Newuate, the most expedient course to obviate the existing- difficulties at Giltspur-street Cometer will be by appropriating the site ef the Debtors' Prison with ~ some adjoining property for the erection of a suitable House of Correction, and converting the present Compter into a Debtor's Prison; and we therefore recommend the Court to direct that an application be made to the Secretary of State for the Home Department for his sanction to this arrange ment." • Alderman Witsos, in moving that the Committee should agree with the report, said it should be immediately carried into execution, and the Committee had inquired most particularly into the circumstances and diffieotti. s w hich necessarily presented themselves in the consideration of such a subject, and as it was the opinion ef all the Committee, with the exception of one (Alderman Sidney, we believe), that they should not build a prison out of the City while they had' room for one within It, they had decided in favour of the proposition to make the alteration mentioned in the report. Whitecross-street Prison was comparatively empty by the operation of the late Acts relative to debtors, and it appeared quite obvious, that if the appropriation of the site of that prison to the building of a House of Correction were sanctioned by the Secretary of State, there would be no diffi culty to contend against - in meeting the views of those who required that the extent of the place of confinement should be spacious, and adapted to the existing demands of prison economy. The complaint so frequently made against the Giltspnr street Compter was, that • it was not sufficiently large for the classification, • and the other important arrangements relating to prison dis cipline. Now it was decidedly the fact that five acres could be had in the adjoining portions of ground for the money which one acre would coat near the site of Giltspur street Compter. Sir James Graham might- dissent from the recommendation of the Committee after all, but it appeared to the Committee that the most advisable course was that which they had thus recommended. Alderman SIDNEY said, that although he most cordially worked with the Committee in their object to effect an im proved system of prison discipline, he still adhered to the opinions he had before expressed, that there was every thing to recommend the choice of a site of a prison at a distance from the City. As, however, he observed that the other City magistrates were of quite a contrary opi nion, and be despaired of being able to alter that impression, he agreed in the recommendation of the change suggested as an improvement upon the existing plan. It seemed to be supposed by some that the present area of Whitecross-street Prison would be sufficiently extensive for the purposes of a prison for persons charged with offences. He certainly thought otherwise. Sir C. MARSHALL said, that although a considerable re • - duction had taken place in the number of persons confined in Whitecross-street Prison compared with the number with which that prison used to be crowded, still the Court should look to the consequences which might result from the very recent alterations in the Act of Parliament relating to debtors. Alderman SIDNEY knew of no Act of Parliament which was likely to increase the number in the Debtors' Prison. He looked upon every Act which had of late years passed as calculated to diminish the inmates. Alderman CHALLIS believed that if any such difficulty should arise as that alluded to by Sir Chapman Marshall, it could be easily removed by a skilful alteration in the Giltspur street Compter. Alderman FAREBROTHER approved of the report, but sug gested that it would be more prudent in the Court to seek a conference with Sir James Graham on the subject than to go to him with a plan cut and dry for his adoption. There was a great difference between these two modes of addressing a Minister, who would naturally look will more favour to that in which his own ruggestioris appeared to be an object with those who were to apply for his sanction. Alderman Wirsos at once adopted the suggestion of Alderman Farebrother, and the report was altered accord ingly, and unanimously adopted. A special Committee was appointed to seek the conference. THE POTATO DISEASE. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR ' farmer in this neighbourhood w h o h a d a b ury of about fifty sacks of potatoes, discovered that they had been a!tacked with the prevailing epidemic. To such an extent had the ravages of the dis..ase prevailed, that only six bags out of the lot were thought worth saving, and these (being more or less affected), he sold :o a tradesman of this City for pigs. This latter gentleman had them emptied into an out house, which was dry, and to which there was a free access of air, and in a very short time he found that the diseased parts- were completely dried up, and the remainder fit for culinary purposes. This suggests the propriety of keeping the potato out of the damp, and in places where there is Este ventilation ; and I trust this communication will be attended to by potato growers, who have the accommodation of barns, out-houses, &c., to enable them to try the experiment.—Tours, &c. Worcester, Oct. 20, 1845. p . if. THE LITTLE FoUNDLING.—Some few weeks ago a tine little girl was left in a band.box at a gentleman's house in Skircoat. from whence it was removed to the union workhouse. During the past week two 5/. notes were inclosed to C. Barstow. Esq., clerk to the Halifax union, accompanied by a neatly written note, evidently by a female hand, as follows:—" For the main tenance of the foundling —a little girl—left between the Sowerby. bridge station and Halifax, in the beginning of September. First Year." It would seem, therefore, that the subscription will be an annual one. It is intended to christen the little foundling in a few days; perhaps the lady who forwarded the above note would intimate what name she would wish it to be baptised ? Halifax Guardian. THE ISLE OF JERSEY RAILWAY. —The prelimi naries connected with the " Isle of Jersey Railway emit Pier Company," are now being rapidly proceeded with. We have now before us an accurate plan of the whole scheme. It would be dif cult to conceive a line of railroad, even of much more limited dimensions than that which now engages the attention of our islanders, capable of being constructed at a cost so comparatively trifling. We understand that since the recent meeting at Loxey's hotel, many of the previously most bitter enemies of the scheme have become converted to an idea of its utiVt7. Not a few inquiries have been made of ourselves, in relation to the probability of a rise in the rate of premium —inquiries evincing the sleep interest entertained with respect to the affair. We are happy to record the generous offer of Mr- Wallis, Second Master on board %he Excellent, win very kindly volunteered his services to the Muter-Attendant of Portsmouth Dockyard, to .conduct the ill-fated Eclair, from the Mothetbank to Stangate creek, should any difficulty occur in obtaining a pilot. United Service Gazette. Sir R. Peel has appointed Mr. W. T. Thornton to be Receiver General at the Board of Excise. POTATOES AND SCRlP.—There was a sort of slight panic on the Stock ExchAnte here, on Wednesday, caused, it was said, by the partial failure of the potato crop —and the joke was kept up by a drummer or two goivg through and warning the citizens not to eat what were of them, because they were bad. "Phis small depreriion did not last, of course, and it was laughed over next day under the designation of the " potato panic."— Glasiow Constituti.nal. TILE NAIL TRADE.—The Bromsgrove nailors re ceived on Saturday last, 2.05. in the pound for t7..eir labour. During the depression of the trade the nailors were subject to a discount of 20 per cent , and a short time ago they struck for a reduction of the per centage, aiAl were &lowed 18s. for the pound. They now reeeive their money in full. At the quar terly meeting of the nail ironmongers, held at the Hotel.

Preparations are now mbking for comrrenc•ing the stupendous work of the High Level Bridge across the Tyne.

It says little for the gratitude of the inhabitants of London that, while in so many provincial towns monuments have been for twenty or thirty years erected, forty years after his death the monu ment in Trafalgar-square is still unfinished. DRINKING FOR A WAGER.—On Tuesday a per son called Thomas Lister, a shoemaker, living at Barnesley, un. dertook, for a trifling wager, to drink two quarts of ale and a pint of rum in ten minutes, which he accomplished, but was so ill after, that a surgeon was obliged to be sent fir, and narrowly saved his life by the application ef the stomach-pump.—Leeds Intelligencer. SHAKING A WO5l AN IN A SACK.-- At the Blacl - Petty Sessions on Wednesday, Sylvester Whalley, Thomas Taylor, William Whitehead, and George Heap were charged by Mary Pollard with having shaken her in a sack. All the parties were employed at the print-works of Mr. Hargreaves, at Broad Oak, Accrington. The complainant stated that on Monday week a person who had previously courted her had got married, when the defendants, who worked in the same room in the mill as her. self, came up to her, and said, as she had " lost her chap," they would shake her in a bag if she would not pay them some money ' for drink. She refused to comply with their request, when Heap got hold of her, and Taylor found a sack, and they all forced her into it, and shook her. Her person was very indecently exposed while she was being forced into the sack. The defendants ad mitted having committed the offence, and said in extenuation, that the complainant had laid hold of one of them by the nick and tried to kick him. The magistrates expressed their surprise at the cowardly nature of the assault, and the pitiful excuse offered, and fined each of the defendants in the penalty of '206. and cogs. The defendants expressed themselves very dissatisfied at this de. cision, as "shaking in the bag" was a custom on such occasions as that referred to by the complainant, whereupon the magistrates re. called them, and increased the fine to 50s. and costs, and ordered them to find two sureties to keep the peace for twelve months. Subsequently, however, at the intercession of Mr. Hargreaves, who pleaded the ignorance of the defendants and the custom spoken of, and on the defendants declaring their contrition for the offence ctohlet._li they had ai comm itted, .r Guardian. the penalty was mitigated to '2os. each and A RAILWAY CASE DECIDED WITH RAILWAY SPEED. —Yesterday morning a youth, named John Silvester, was charged before the mayor with having stolen a carpet bag, containing a variety of articles of wearing apparel, the property of the RC,. Matthew Henry Farrer, of Shirley, Croydon, Surrey. The rev. complainant said that, upon the evening of the 7th inst., be arrived by a train at the London railway station in this town, on his way to Lancaster. On alighting from the carriage he placed his carpet bag upon the platform while he went to look for his portmanteau, and on his return he found it was gone, and bad seen nothing of it till that morning, when it was pointed out to him in the possession of Mr. Inspector Edmonds. Inspector Edmonds stated that on the evening of the Stb inst., from information be had received, he apprehended the prisoner in New Summer-street, and found upon him part of the property that bad been stolen. The carpet bag and the remainder of the articles claimed by Mn; Farrer Jere found at the prisoner's lodgings. After hearing the above erdence, and the property having been identified, the mi.- sonar wits committed to the sessions, then being held, and in d h th a an vin t i rta o h e o ad u ed rs he was btrUthgebtbe charge,fore twheasLes;a:nritEdi;d:ecmotorjotuwrn,,,,,lialei:do: menthe! imprisonment with hitrdlabour.—B , OCt. - - - - - 7'" 7 ,* , k-T ; ,ONDON, WEDNESD AS, OCTOBER 22 1845 Tha extension of rallway enterprise continues to form onc of t he most n-markable and best defined features of the times. It is not only the numi:er and variety of the schemes—the vast magnitude of the capital required for their execution— he spirit with which the most expensive preliminaries are embarked upon . long before that stage of progress has been attained which, under ordinary circumstances would alone seem to justify such an outlay—the facility w which the great landowners, on the lines of pT ojccted railways, arc now induced to patronise a class o undertakings to which they were formerly opposed, almost to a man, with uncompromising hostility—it is not one, or any, or the whole of these circumstances, which consti tutes the most notable aspect that these undertaking, present. Any one who N 1 ill peruse the various summaries of the projects from time to time brought forward in the pro vectuses which appear in our advertising columns, canner fail to be struck with their development of improved plans ti railroad communication between points as to which they who have not made the projection of railway bases over given portions of the superficies of the country, their peculiar study, inight erroneously suppose that the most eligible and avail able trunk lincs had been already adopted. Branch lines. and lines of junction and continuation are continually gene. rated by the same certwin and imperative wants which called the first executed railroads into existence. Towns, villages, and rural hamlets, which until now never dreamed of divertim, the ordinary high roads even . into more convenient proxi mity to their own position, are now entirely sensible of Ot. manifold advantages to be derived from multiplying their points of contact with other places, more or less remote, that are likely to prove advantageous markets for the disposal of heir manufactures, their agricultural products, their grazing , tock, or for the supdly of their own immediate wants. Ex periencc has long since demonstrated that communications .take neighb turhoods, but neighbourhoods do not necessa ,tily establish communications. The greater or the more re ricted the facilities of access to any plate, the more-posi tive are the advantages which result not to it alone, tut to some other place or places from which that access is effected. So true is this position, that the present t•affic or population of any given locality, to or throngl which no railway has yet been run, is ro longer an infalliblt test by which to determine the expediency of constructini ,one of these very costly and extensive. works. Places that tad no previous trade or importance have sprung up, fron the mere accident of their vicinity to railways passing nea their site, into sudden favour—into the residences of increasing populations, and the seats of rapidly accumulating opulenc... ill that has been fabled of the magic powers of the ring, ant• the lamp of Aladdin, in Oriental story, has been realist-0 ny the marvels which railway enterprise has worker :'nom wild or neglected tracts of country in the thre. :ittgdoms within the last ten years.

Witinsort, TuEsDAY.—The Queen and Prince Albert walked to Frogmore this forenoon, and returned to the Castle in the Russian droshka. Her Majesty and his Royal Highness again walked out in the afternoon. Her Majesty the Queen Dowager, attended by the Vis countess Barrington, took an airing at noon, and.paid a visit to her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, at Frogmore House. The Royal Family were all taken for their accustomed early rides this morning in the Home Park and the pleasure grounds around the Castle. In the afternoon their Royal Highnesses the Priuce of Wales, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice were taken out walking. The Duke of Wellington left the Castle for Strathfield saye in the morning, and returned in the afternoon. The Prince and Princess Nicolas Esterhazy, the Earl and Countess of Jersey, and the Lady Clementina Villiers arrived at the Castle to-day, on a visit to her Majesty. The Marquis and Marchioness of Worcester took their departure from the Castle to-day. Captain the Hon. Nelson Hood has arrived at the Castle, and has succeeded Admiral Sir Robert Otway as the Groom in Waiting to the Queen. _ _ The royal dinner party will include her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, Lady Anna Maria Dawson, Baroness de Speth, and Colonel Sir George Couper. The band of the 2d Regiment of Life Guards was in at tendance during dinner. Her Majesty's private band after wards attended in the Castle, and performed the remainder of the evening. The Earl of Dalhousie left town yesterday, for Deal Castle. PRINCESS'S THriA TR E. A new version of the French vaudeville on which the farce of Next Door is founded, was pro !need here last evening, under the title of Jark o' Bcth Sides. Oxberry enacts the part of the hero, the double lover, who is en gaged to be married to Miss Lathem (Miss E. Honner), the musical and sentimental daughter of a rich old papa, while at the same time he is making love to Mary Anne, the lively milliner next door, which character was admi rably sustained by Miss E. Stanley. The leading inci dents of the original of course are preserved. We have the dinner scene at Mary Anne's, and the depository of the various articles of provender is the bonnet, and we have at the conclusion the bursting through of the thin partition between the houses by Jack, and the discovery of the sentimental and musical cousin (performed with great humour by Mr. A. Harris) at the feet of Miss Lathem. The adapter, however, in treating his subject, has made sundry judicious altera tions to suit the peculiar talents of the different mem bers of the Princess's company. He has taken an accu rate measure of them, and has fitted them exactly. Fer instance, he has introduced a laughable bur le,que on the mirror dance in the Marble Maiden, and Oxberry and Miss Emma Stanley, to quote the words of the firmer, ‘• come the Albert and the Dumilatre" in the most ludicrous manner imaginable. They also dance a capital burlesque Polka, which con vulsed the house with laughter, and the repetition of which wit-. vehemently demanded. Taking it altogether, Jack o' Bah Sides is an amusing laughter-moving trifle, and it n ill, no doubt, have a run. Emma Stanley and Oxberry were both honoured with the usual ovation at the full of the eurt&n. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. CHESTER AUTUMN RACES.—MONDAY.
