At a meeting of the Provisional Committee of this undertaking, held at Radley's Hotel, on Wednesday, the sth instant, it was una nimously resolved to apply for powers to construct a branch line about four miles in length, from Ehnsted to Alresford, thus connect ing the town of Colchester with the deep water of the river Colne, at the nearest point, and where vessels of 500 tons can discharge their cargoes with safety, by means of which Colchester will be com pletely established as a seaport town. The engineers reported that the cost of this branch, with all suit able works, would not exceed 50,000/., and it was resolved to increase the capital by that amount accordingly, and instructions were given for the necessary survey being forthwith proceeded in. As the allotment of shares will not take place until the standing orders are complied with previously to the 30th instant, applications for prospectuses, plans, and shares, will continue to be received by the solicitors and brokers already advertised.

This railway will connect the east and west coasts, and form a direct route from the ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood-on-Wyre, and Lancaster, to Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Commencing at Lancaster, it will proceed up the valley of the Lune, by Kirkby Lonadale, Sedbergk, and Kirkby Stephen. and thence by the most practicable line to New castle. It will run nearly parallel with the old coach road, which has hitherto been the principal passenger route from Lancaster to Newcastle. It will readily be conceded that great benefits will flow from a direct railway communication between the coal-fields and mining districts of Durham and Northumberland, and the important towns and ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood, Newcastle. and Lancaster. The entire length of the line 13 rich in mineral productions—coal slate, limestone, marble, and other elements of a great local traffic abound, and cannot fail to make this one of the most remunerative projects of the day. A considerable saving of distance between the important towns on the termini is effected over any existing or pro jected scheme. _ _ It will be reserved to the Committee of Management to make such alterations in the line, or the amount of capital required, or other wise, as may be deemed most advantageous to the Interests ithe Company. Power will be applied for to allow interest at the rate of four per cent. on the calls from the passing of the Act to the opening of the line, as well as to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscriptions only. Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be had of the Solicitors, and of the following brokers : Messrs. Peppercorns, Old Broad-street, City, London ; Messrs. Jos.

SECRETARY—WiIIiam Ranyard, Esq. _ . _ The first object of this line is to connect the town of Birmingham Coventry, and Leicester, with the eastern coast by the nearest route and to supply an important link of communication between the town of Spalding and the eastern coast, and the western aud midland districts. Commencing at the Spalding station of the Norwich, Dereham, Lynn, and Holbeach Railways, the line will proceed by Bourn, Witham, Castle Bytham, South Wytham, and Wymondham, to a point on the Syston and Peterborough line of railway near Melton- Mowbray, thus forming, by the Syston and Peterborough and Mid land Counties Railway, an almost direct route to Leicester, and thence to Coventry and Birmingham by the proposed Coventry, Nuneaton, Leicester, and Birmingham Railway. The projected line will form the most direct communication be tween the eastern and midland districts of the kingdom, and will, by means of the proposed lines across the county of Leicester, via Bur ton-upon-Trent, to Stafford, bring the markets of Lincoln, Norfolk, Shropshire, and North Wales, nearer to each other by many miles than any other line of railway_ It will form, with other projected railways, an almost direct line across the kingdom, from Yarmouth, via Norwich, on the east, to Aberystwith, via Newton and Shrewsbury, on the west: The entire length will not exceed thirty miles. There is note:mei ling, cutting, or embanking of any importance necessary; the line from Bourn to Spalding, a distance of about twelve milled, 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 the means of transit. The central midland districts have felt greatly the want of direct communication with the coast; and this line will at once supply tire deficiency to the greater part of Staffordshire and Leicestershire. It will afford a transit 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 tages of an unlimited supply of lime from the Leicestershire works, to the agricultural districts of Lincoln, which are at present only supplied at very high rates; and, in return traffic, tins midland dis tricts will obtain 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 be sufficient for the construction of the necessary works and every subsequent expense ; and the income derivable from the traffic in passengers between Birmingham, Co ventry, Leicester, Derby, Melton, Spalding, and Boston, the trans port of corn, cattle, and other 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 be sufficiently ample to warrant the outlay. Tire Parliamentary surveys have been commenced, and are now in active progress, and contracts — have been entered into which en sure sufficient time for compliance with 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, Tra falgar-square, Charing• cross, where applications for shares, accom panied by respectable references, may be addressed to the Provi sional Committee.

At the dinner of the Williton and Dunster Agricultural Association, which took place at Dunster on Thursday last B. Escett, Esq., M.P.,in the chair, ,th a t gent l eman , i u allusion to the failure f the potato crop, and to the measures to be adopted in consequenCe, spoke as fellows (we quote the report of the Somerset County Gazette) :—" At this moment, from most careful inquiries which he had made, he found that the article of potatoes formed one half of the food of the people residing in this neighbourhood.—(' No, no,' from the Rev. Mr. Ralph.) One gentleman said no, but he (Mr. Escott) had endeavoured to ascertain what the fact was.— (A Farmer—' More than half.') He had inquired of the large landowner, of the tradesman, of the farmer in every condition, of artificers in towns and villages, and of labourers is all classes, and the conclusion to which he had been led by those inquiries was, that one half of the food of the people consisted of potatoes.—(' You are quite right.') He would be happy if any one could prove that he was wrong, but until his worthy friend (Mr. Ralph) had tl-n ied what he had stated; he had not heard one practical man dispute the fact.—( Mr. Ralph —‘ I view the question as a national one.') It was a national question, and as such it s h ou ld b e Viewed.—(Loud cheers.) There was a great national calamity impending, and that fact should not be stifled.—(Mr Ralph here made an observa tion, which did not reach us.) He begged his Reverend Friend not to interrupt him. Up to this moment he bad heard no denial, except that by Mr. Ralph, of the fact that potatoes formed one half of the food of the people.—(A farmer, ' And more too.') One gentleman now said more,' but taking it as he (Mr. Escott) had stated, how much of that crop had been destroyed—how much of it had ceased to be food?—(' More than three quarters.') He believed that in the whole case it would be found that four fifths had been destroyed, rendered totally useless.—(Hear, hear.) And were they (the agriculturists) in such a state as not to be able to tell the truth? Why, when the time came that bitter want pressed upon those who now chiefly lived upon potatoes, would those who suffered be satisfied to have the matter stifled? Would they be satisfied to hear that it was a visitation of Providence, and that all that could be done was to endeavour to avert the consequences? He was not a reasonable man who endeavoured to stifle inquiry, and the fullest inquiry, into the case.—(Cheers.) Ile bad asked what portion of food had been destroyed, and he was told three-fourths. He himself stated that four-fifths were nearer the mark. How, then, he asked, were those to live who had been accustomed to use potatoes to the extent of one-half of their food, now that three fourths of that crop had been destroyed ?--(Hear, hear.) He knew what had been done in former times, in cases of similar emergency—he knew that in the case of the oldest nation of which we have any record, the inhabitants sent to the granaries of other countries for food. He knew, also, that whenever the people of this country had been distressed, one of the principal causes of that distress always was the high price of provisions in our great trading communities.—(llear, and cheers). He advised those who heard him to consider these things; he advised those who were in the government to consider them ; he advised such men as his hon. friend (Mr. Arland), than whom there were few more able or honest. he ad vised all to use the influence which rank and station, educa tion and ability, and honesty gave them, to endeavour to ward off or to mitigate the evil that was impending.—(Loud cheers). Let them tell those who were in power, to beware how they tampered when such an imminent danger stared them in the face.—(Enthusiastic cheering). He had said nothing as to future famine—he prayed God to avert it; but he did tell them that there was danger of it; and it was madness in the government, in members of Parliament, or iu the public, to shut their eyes to this fact, which was staring them in the face."—(The hon. gentleman sat down amid loud and long -continued cheering.)

They commenced by draw ing the preserves by Virginia Water, Mr. Corfield's planta tions, and the Belvinere Gorse, all of which were drawn blank. The hounds then proceeded to the Forest, which, after some time, produced a fine fox. The scent at first was very cold and bad, and the hounds had great difficulty in picking up the scent, but the hounds stuck right well to their work, and their perseverance was rewarded by an improved scent. After ringing about the wilds of the forest, the fox crossed the road to Bray-wood, went through it at a racing pace, and broke covert opposite St. Leonard's ; he was headed in the open and returned to Bray-wood, where, however, he had no intention of remaining, but passing through the wood, broke covert again at New-lodge, made across the country round by Captain Blanc's Park, and Fyfield, where he was headed by a shepherd dog back towards the Forest, and after running two fields in view, the hounds ran into him, after a fine hunting race of one hour and twenty minutes. Sir John Cope sent the brush as a birthday present to his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales. AN EXAMPLE FOR LANDLORDS.—The Duke of Hamilton has had as much turf cut this last summer, on Nateby Moss, near Garstang, for the purpose of being applied in the construction of drains on his Ashton estate, as would cover a drain from Lancaster to Preston, a distance of 22 miles.

He is not now in a private house, but in Hotel, where he keeps quite secluded in his own apartment, preparing, it is said, something for the press. Yesterday he celebrated Divine service at Esslingen, which was very well attended, and will officiate on Sunday night at Stuttgard, and, on his return to Silesia, again visit Frankfort. Official notice was given' yesterday to the German Catholic clergy men here not to perform any acts which relate to civil life. Baptisms ,and marriages, therefore, must be solemnised by the Protestant clergymen of the parish. The administration of the Lord's supper, and attendance at funerals, are permit ted. It is said that this notice was given to Ronge some days ago at Clm. The Constitutionnel stated, some days ago. that Prime!! Jerome de Montfort, nephew of our King had become insane, :and had been taken to his family at Florence, whereas he is here in Stuttgard, in good health both in body and mind.

BRESLAW, - Ocr. 30.—Those Roman Catholic citizens who remonstrated' with the magistrates against the grant of 1,000 dollars for the support of the Catholic community, and whose application did not succeed, then addressed a unti l:Nut to the Government, being still of opinion that the resolution of the deputies of the city was decidedly illegal, and that it was an injury to the Roman Catholics. The Government, however, is not of this opinion, and has like wise refused the petition of the applicants. Scuralmust, Nov. 4.—Her Royal Highness the Grand Duchess and her Royal Highness the Duchess Louisa will leave this city on the Bth of this month, to go to Italy to visit her Majesty the Empress of Russia.

BERLIN, Nov. 4.—The Universal Prussian Gazelle has the following article:— " The tariff of the Zollverein, published in the bulletin of the laws of this date, for the year 1816-1848, contains no change in the duties on all kinds of yarn fixed by the pend ing tariff, which is still in force. Many persons will be dis • satisfied, and more surprised, at this result of the long and animated discussion of the Congress at Carlsruhe. It must, however, be considered that every change in the tariff must have the assent of every member of the Church, and Co quently that a difference of opinion either on the question whether any change shall be made, or what shall be the ex tent of the change, leads to the conclusion that the old duties shall be retained. In the present case the difference of opi nion seems to have turned on the latter point ; some Govern ments having wished and proposed augmentations on the duties so great and extensive in which other Governments— and these too the most interested in the branches of manu facture in question—could not accede to, while no disposition was manifested by the former Government to agree to the proposals that were repeatedly made to reconcile the several whines and views; and there was not time to settle the exist ing difference before the time positively fixed by the statutes for the publication of the tariff. Though it is doubtless to be lamented that the yarn manufacture in the Zollverein must bedeprived for a time of an increased protective duty which has been proposed, it will be gratifying to those who are in terested to know that the Prussian Government, on this un expected issue of the conference at Carlsruhe, has been in duced to declare that it cannot consider the questions as postponed till the next revisal of the tariff, but reserve to itseT.f the option of regarding those questions as still pending, and of resuming the discussion for the purpose of deciding them at any future time. The necessary steps are already taking to act on this reservation. (We have already stated that ether accounts announce thatconferences to this effect are held at Berlin.)—Humburgh Papers, Nov. 6. SEDBERGII..--ENGINERRING DIFFICULTIES.--Our usually quiet village was on the night of Thursday, 30th Oc tober, " frighted from its propriety" by the continuous ar rival of omnibuses, gigs, can, and chaises, crowded with passengers, at the door's of the principal inns. Night caps overshadowing wondering eyes were thrust from chamber windows, and urgent inquiries as to the cause of this invasion were made by our disturbed denizens, who, unsatisfied, were compelled by the cold to retire shivering to their beds again. ➢horning, however, cleared up the mystery, for at the first streak of day, forth from their quarters issued a large party of surveyors, headed by a railway engineer from Lancaster, and attended by upwards of one hundred and fifty men,. amongst whom were a goodly number of most truculent visaged navies. Having achieved something like order, they marched direct to the estate of one of our neighouring gentry, who has made himself conspicuous by his pertinacious opposition to rail ways, and his fixed determination to " do what he likes with his own." Arrived here, they immediately commenced ope rations, levelling, &c., and notwithstanding an opposing muster of tenantry, led by gamekeepers, who actually threat ened to shoot the instruments! and so commit level-icide, the preliminary works necessary for the formation of a rail way through the land were soon completed, and at three o'clock, P.m., three rattling cheers announced the discomfi ture of the vermin-preservers and their suzerain.—Lancaster Guardian REPRESENTATION OF CASHEL.—The eleetors have decided on Sir Colman O'Loghlen as their representative.

FIRING AT Ma. BARTON, OF CLONELLY.—We have been favoured by Messrs. Johnston, of Eden-quay, with the following account of an atrocious outrage in Fermanagh : As F. W. Barton, Esq., of Clonelly, in that county, was re turning home on Friday last, about half-past nine o'clock, from dining with his friend, Counsellor Barton, of Kelsh, when within half a mile of his own house, he was fired at and dangerously wounded in the breast. The latest account from Enniskillen, Saturday afternoon, states that the doctor has just returned from Clonelly, and reports that Mr. Barton is going on favourably, but is very feverish. Two men have been taken up on suspicion. —Freeman. [lt is stated that this attempt arose out of private pique, or from some deci sion given by him on the preceding day, in his capacity as magistrate.—Limeriek Reporter.] THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL OF CANADA.— We regret to learn that the latest advices from Canada give a most unfavourable account of the state of Lord Metcalfe's health. Indeed we have seen a private letter from a gentle man whose official duties give him daily opportunities for observation, which represents the distinguished person in question as so worn down by suffering as to make it utterly impossible that human nature can much longer bear up, unless the cruel disease (cancer of the face) to which he has so long been a martyr should_ take a most unexpected change. Lord Metcalfe had, up to the last possible moment, persevered in his personal attention to the duties of his important office; but on the day on which the letter to which we have alluded was written, he was for the first time unable to bear the pain and fatigue of removal to the Council-room, and the indispensable business was necessarily transacted in his absence. The writer of the letter expresses an opinion that a month, or, at the furthest, two, must see the conclusion of this afflicting tragedy; and he proceeds to express a hope that the Government at home will be prepared to send out the beat substitute they can supply in the place of one for whom it would be vain to ex pect an equal. The sufferings of the Governor-Gene ral ra have d latterly been so agonising, that even his best frien d s could scarcely scarcely wish the struggle to be much longer protrac te d.— ract ed Britannia. and realised high prices, PRESTON CATTLE Fars.—The usual T he w as held in the Cattle-market calving cows was previous. —Preston unusuallyyesterfl a a r y ge, (Friday). tock of the bests sorts fetching about 18/.
