Deposit 21. 12s. 6d. per Share. At a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Isle of Ely, Wis beach, and Lincolnshire Junction Railway : ResolVed—That an extension of the Isle of Ely, Wisbeach, and Lincolnshire Junction Railway from March to Huntingdon, with a branch to St. Ives, would be profitable as an investment of capital, aril useful to the public. That the Directors of the Isle of Ely, Wisbeach, and Lincolnshire Junction Railway take measures to carry out the project, under the name of the Huntingdon, St. Ives, and Wisbeach Union Railway. That the capital be two hundred thousand pounds, in eight thou sand Shares of twenty-five peunds each. That Ilessrs. Spooner, Attwood, and Co. be the banters in London; Messrs. Rust and Veasey, at Huntingdon ; and the National Pro vincial Bank of England, at March, Wisbeach, and Sutton. The Directors of the Isle of Ely, Wisbeach, and Lincolnshire Junction Railway, having been urgently requested, leave upon mature deliberation, determined to add to the value and to the public utility of their much approved line the railway now announced. This short but important line of railway will proceed from the Isle of Ely, Wisbeach, and Lincolnshire Junction Railway, at March, throuh or near Wimblington, Deddington, Benwick, Broughton, King's g Ripton, Hartford, Chatteris, Ramsey, Warboys, and Hurst, to Huntingdon. The placing of Wisbeach, the natural port of this rich and eaten she agricultural district, in immediate connexion with Huntingdon, the focus of six railways, must be a great accommodation, and of paramount importance to that port ; added to which, it has long been desired by the mercantile community of both towns. It also gives Wisbeach and its vicinity, and the other populous places which it will traverse, the choice of two routes to the metro polis on the completion of that portion of the London and York Rail way which joins Huntingdon, giving the railway communication by St. Ives to Wisbeach, an object which the inhabitants of the town have publicly tettitled their desire to accomplish. EiPower will be applied for in the Act of Parliament to amalgamate tills Company with the Isle of Ely, Wlsbeacb, and Lincolnshire Junc tion Railway under one management. Holders of shares, in the Isle of Ely, Wisbeach, and Lincolnshire Junction Railway may have shares in the present Company, in the proportion of one share for every two, by transmitting a letter stat'ng the fact to the Secretary, or either of the Solicitors, on or before the 15th of October instant. Application for shares may also be ade in the accompanying form. No application can be received after the 18th of October, and the shares will be allotted without delay FORM OF APPLICATION. To the Provisional Committee of the Huntingdon, St. Ives, and Wisbeach Union Railway. Gentlemen,—l request you will allot me shares of 25/ each in the above company, and I undertake to pay the deposit of 21. 12s. 6d. per share thereon, or any less number yon may appropriate to me, and to execute the Subscribers' Agreement and Parliamen tary.

Offices, 26, Gresham street, London, Oct. 9, 1845. day of October, 1845, PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT. SOUTH LONDON RAILWAY. (Provisionally Registered.) ENGINEER-IN-CHIEF—John Braithwaite, Esq. SOLICITOBS.—Diesars. Russell and Mackenzie. This line will branch from the Greenwich Railway about one mile east of London -bridge, and after crossing the Kent-road, will pass through Camberwell and Brixton to Clapham. From Clapham it is intended to continue the line through Tooting to Mitcham; and power will also be obtained to carry a branch trom a point on the main line between Camberwell and Brixton to Norwood and Dulwich; and another ftom Clapham to the South- Western Railway. This latter branch will be little more than a mile loog, and will give a City terminus to the Seuth-Western Railway, the importance of which to the public and the shareholders of that line can scarcely be exaggerated. Those who are acquainted with the country to be traversed by this railway will know*, and a glance at the map will show to others, that this is the only way by which the densely populated districts of Cautlicrwell, Brixton, and Clapham can be furnished with adequate iailway accommodation. The line proposed, besides being almost straight, has the advan tage of being so nearly level as not to offer a single engineering cults ; and, as very few buildings will be interfered with, the cost oC the line will be moderate in comparison with other metropo litan Ra'dways, and small with reference to the immense traffic which must pass over it. The Norwood and Dulwich branch may probably be worked by a single line of rails, especially if the atmospheric system of traction be adopted. The principal stationS will be in the Kent-road (close to New Peck ham), at Camberwell (near the green), at Brixton (near the church), and at Clapham (near the common). Passengers will save two-thirds of the time now spent in the coaches, less fares will be charged ; and as experience has shown that the most frequent ram3ing of trains on short lines produces the largest amount of profit, the public are likely to be well served in that DREADFUL FIRE AND LOSS 0 LIFE. aespeet also. The great superiority of the London -bridge terminus for the dis tricts through which this line will pass, will be readily perceived, when it is known that nearly the entire populations of those districts are engaged in commercial pursuits, and that their places of business are - . - ngstly situate east of the Bank; and it is suppssed that the Directors of the South Western Railway will eagerly adopt the faci lity which this line will offer for the conveyance of their passengers toLondon-bridge. The prospectus, plan, and other details, will be published in a few days, and in the meantime commwaications may be addressed to the, So:idtors, at the temporary offices, 82 , ti Southwark. 4th October, 1845.

Notice is hereby given, that no further applications for Shares in tills Company can be received after TUESDAY, the 14th instant. SCHOLES and BR')DRIBB, Solicitors to the Company. Lest night, shortly after seven o'clock, a fire broke out in the Wes minster-road, on the premises known as Hengler's firework manufactory, situate on the south-side, fronting the Freemasons' School. The premises, which comprised a Owelimg-house three stories high, and adjoined other ma nufactories of a similar description, one of which shared a like catastrophe some years since, has for upwards of half a ccatury been oocupied by Mrs. Wells, better known as Med:elle Hengler, the pyrotechnist, and who, we regret to say, has 1 •st her life. It appears that the bulk of the apartments in the building were devoted to the manufac ture of fireworks, the front parlour being converted into a show-room or shop, and the first floor only kept for the ac comer-dation of the inmates. On account of the briskness of the season, Guy Fawkes' day approaching extra hands were employed on the premises to execute a large amount of country orders. The Alarm was raised at about a quarter-past seven o'clock, ,phee the workmen heard. a cry of "fire" in the house, fol lowed by slight reports similar to the explosion of crackers and s quibs. Those who were at work in the upper rooms immediately ran down stairs, and some minutes elapsed ere they could find out whence the noise proceeded. It was then discovered to emanate from the room of Madame Bendier, viz., the apartment over the shop and looking on to the main road. They instantly rushed to the door, and on opening it found a large body of fire, apparently in the centre, Lut so powerful was the volume of smoke, coupled With the intense heat, that they were unable to make an entrance. It was well known that Madame Hengler was in the room, and in a second or two she was seen from the out side at the m indow , w hich she succeeded in opening, and made gestures to the crowd to save her. The unfortunate t wo man, who was verging on to her 90th year, was helpless, and being exceedingly stout was unable to raise her•elf to the window to jump. She, however, leant over the window to avoid being suffocated. Attempts were then again made to ,get into the room, and one or two persons succeeded, but were forced to retreat ere they could reach her. In the meanwhile ladders were brought and placed again . the burning premises, but were found to be not long" eneigh to reach the poor creature. Longer ones were so.ai procured, and attempts were made to drag her oUt. She was still alive, and her cries to save her were of a truly heartrending description.; but from her corpulency, and the suffocating odour of the burning combustibles, it was impos sible, and in a few minutes she was observed gradually to 41141, and .eventually disappeared in [the burning apartment. -ndpiilice, finding there was no chance of saving the unfor tur ate woman, immediately„ commenced, assisted by the leorkpeople of the,neighbounng factories, removing the more 4.siigereins portion of the stock ; a great deal, however, they were unable to secure, which on ignition exploded with a loud report, and for a considerable time the front of the house presented a very novel appearance from the number uf blue-lights burning and fireworks darting from the several windows. The engines from the Southwark-bridge-road station were quickly on the spot, and were soon got into operation,,hut.the crowd was so great that the firemen were greatly impeded. By the aid of a further arrival of engines, and a reinforcement, of police, a better command was got over the flaming property, and by nine o'clock all danger to the adjacent premises was over. Till past ten o'clock, how ever, the firemen were occopied in throwing water on the premises to damp the combustibles. As soon as the .fire was somewhat got under search was made for the remains , of Madame Hengler, which were found by Mr. Barrow, the acting foreman of the West of England Brigade, on the floor of the room in which she was seen to sink. As may be supposed, her body was greatly burned. A shell having been procured,it was removed to St. George's Workhouse, prior to an inquest being held. She was very clever as an artist in fireworks, and for more than thirty-four years was the pyrotechnist to Vauxhall-gardens. Of late years the business was conducted by her grandson. As re gardsthe origin of the fire. it is surmised that it arose from an , explosion of fireworks in Madame Hengler's room. The dam-ge done is almost the destruction of the building; the r fire has gone through it, the lower part being perfectly consumed. INGENIOUS SMUGGLING.—The Customs officers of Mu%mile have recently discovered a quantity of goods attempted to be smuggled across the frontier, consisting of handkerchiefs, napkins, richly embroidered m us li ns, & c,, and' which were at tempted to be psssed by means of the canal between the Rhine and the Rhone. Imagine twelve oblong cases, made of zinc, secured by iron bands, and suspended in the water by means of strong cords beneath a wooden raft. These twelve cases, hermetic a ll y closed and enveloped in two covers, the one of leather, the other of iron well greased and closely packed with merchandise care fully preserved from all chance of moisture, were then floated by mean' of the raft, beneath which they hung unseen in the water, liewn the Rhine and through the canal into the Rhone. In this ingenious manner the smugglers seem for a length of time to have eluded the vigilance of the Customs, forthe h y ad w t o h u e l y d n n o o t t bee hav n e e e m n trusted so valuable a cargo to such hazar ds, I.4oldetled br it'll/ previous succees,—/3oulogna geyye, ,` .

The Cotton Marke; at Liverpool yesterday was rather quiet again, and Railvay Shares were not very brisk. The proceedings in the Court of Common Council yester day relative to the formation of a general central termini in the City of London hai been a subject of much conversation in the City to-day. The petitions presented on behalf of the Direct Manchester Ralway Committee to purchase the new Farringdon Market and one from the London and Birming ham Railway Company to buy the site of the Fleet Prison for a similar object, were read with much inte rest by the mercantile classes, and a very earnest desire is expressed that either one or both projects may be carried into effect. No person interested in trade is there to be found who has travelled by the Great Western, the Birmingham, or the South-Western lines, who does not com plain of the time taken to reach, or return, from the several stations of those railways. To parties who travel on trips of pleasure, too, a great degree of annoyance is felt, after a rapid journey by rail, to find so long a period required to reach the City, or to depart for the country, and therefore on all hands it is requisite that a central termini should be as early as possible formed. The site of Farringdon Market (winches a place of business has proved a total failure, or very nearly so) is considered very eligible, and the present structure might be re-modelled, so as in a great degree to suit the purposes for which it is required. There are no arrivals of importance in the City to-day. The Consol market has been very firm this morning. For the Account there have been but one or two transactions, at 98%, and for immediate transfer 98% and %. The premium on Exchequer-bills has been quoted at 48s. 50s. The principal quotations for the Foreign Stocks have been this morning 87% and 86 for the Brazilian Five per Cent. ; for Mexicans, 32 ; for Peruvians, 38 1 4 ; for the Converted Portuguese 61% 3 / 4 ; for Grenada, 21 1 / 2 ; for the Dutch Two and-a-Half per Cents., 60%; and for the Four per Cents., 94 3 / 4 and lA.

The Opposition journals continue the fire against M. GUIZOT and the English Govern ment, and again repeat that all the mischief has arisen from base complaisance :to England. We find really nothing new in these angry and unfair discussions- England could in no way be to blame for the treaty of Tan giers. The French Government and the Emperor of Mo- ROCCO had a quarrel about the line of boundary—the affair was settled, and what more could the Opposition journals require? They could not compel MuLEY ABDERRHAMAN to perform an impossibility, or expect that he would go to war with ABD-EDRADER, for the sake of the French. He has no wish to harbour him in his dominions, but there are certain districts near the frontier, which are still reckoned byAnD -EL-KADER debateable ground; they are not completely, nor anything like it, under the control of Morocco, and what blame then can be attached to the EMPEROR ? We have already given a specimen of the arguments used by the Republican and Radical journals, and we now furnish one from a different quarter, the organ of the Bourbon dynasty, which joins heartily with its sworn enemies in attacking the Government of Louis PHILIPPE. "If the plan of the Journal des Debars," says the Quotidicnne, "be executed MARSHAL BuGEAUD will not have to make a simple expedi tion, but a campaign, and perhaps more than one. No pru dent man would undertake to promise that ABD-EL-KADER can be attacked in the mountains of the Rif before the rainy season. According to all appearances it will be necessary to recommence next spring, and perhaps with new reinforce ments, what is about to be tried this autumn. It is besides permitted to us to predict that the war will be complicated by a revolution in Morocco. The mountaineers of the eastern parts of the em pire do not love ABDERRWAMAN, neither do they fear him, and they revere ABD-EL-KADER as a saint. 11re say this merely for the purpose of describing the real position of affairs. The enterprise in which, according to the Debars, the Mi nistry is about to plunge is precisely that which was inter rupted after the victory of Isly by the treaty of Tangiers. Thus are verified the predictions of all the writers of the in dependent press, and of all the sensible speakers in Parlia ment during the last session. They said to M. GuizoT, ' What you have not accomplished this year you will be forced to do next year. Your treaty is only a procrastination without dignity, for it leaves things just as the y were. And was not this the truth ? Are not this sudden invasion of the territory of Algeria by ABD-EL-KADER, this deplorable mas sacre of Djema Ghazaouat, this insurrection of the Flittas, this hasty embarkation of 12,000 troops for the province of Oran, a positive condemnatfon of the treaty of Tangiers ? It is now pretty evident that the treaty was imposed by exac tions, and accepted upon calculations the responsibility of which the country indignantly repudiates. We do not ac cuse the Ministry of ignorance, but of cowardice ; of its base complaisance for the English, and its insolent contempt of the honour and interests of France." Some of the papers publish a long letter, dated Oran, Sept. 29, but it relates chiefly to the position of ABD-EL-KADER, and the forces under his command, which, according to their account, are anything but formidable. It is stated in the letter, that the Emperor of Monocco was organising an army of regular troops, with the intention of marching to the frontier, in order to subdue the adherents of ABD-EL-RADER in that quarter. We subjoin miscellaneous extracts from the papers : Louis Philippe reviewed on Wednesday morning, in the Cour des Tuileries, several regiments of the line that were leaving Paris for other garrisons. " The Empress of Russia arrived at Milan on theist inst., on her way from the Lake of Como to Genoa. " M. Ronge performed divine service in thechurch of the Ger man Catholic Dissenters at Frankfort, on the 4th. The day be fore he preached in the open air, at Offenbach, to a congregation of more than 15,000 persons. " The consumption of butchers' meat in Paris, in September last, was 5,939 oxen, 2,253 cows, 6,658 calves, and 37,303 sheep. As compared with the consumption during the corresponding month of 1844, there was an increase in 1845 of 180 oxen, 676 cows, 897 calves, and 2,596 sheep. " A lighthouse is to be raised on the coast of Fatouville, near the mouth of the Seine, in place of the wooden one now existing. It is to be 96 metres above the highest equinoctial tides.

The list of the Governors of Christ's Hos pital was directed to be returned to the President, to have the Lord Mayor's name inserted in its proper place. A long di scuss ion then ensued on the important subject of providing a City terminus for the metropolitan railways, originated by a petition from the Direct London and Manchester Railway Company, praying to be permitted to purchase Farringdon Market for a railway terminus. This petition was, on the mo tion of Mr. R. Taylor,who expressed himself warmly in favour of the project, ordered to be referred to the Improvement C om mittee by an overwhelming majority, only four hands having been held up in favour of an amendment proposed by Deputy Godson, to the effect that it be ordered to lie on the table. A petition from the London and Birmingham Ra.l - Company, praying to be allowed to purchase the site of the Fleet Prison, for the purpose of forming a terminus, was then presented by Mr. R. L. Jones, and likewise ordered to be referred to the Improvement Committee.—[We have a full report of these proceedings, as likewise of various railway mee tings, in type. which we are compelled to omit to-day for want of space.

The insolvent, described as a gentleman, residing in South-stree Grosvenor• square, came up for his protection and interim order. He had been living at many fashionable hotels at the West-end, but was at present in custody. His debts were about 5,0001., without any assets., Mr. Coma appeared to oppose on behalf of a Mr. Ogle, a solicitor, as creditor on a bill of exchange for 2801., and also as trustee for a Mr. Waites, a creditor to the amount of 1,5001. Mr. Lawis, the insolvent's solicitor, contended that Mr. Ogle was not a creditor, and that as trustee he was not entitled to oppose. The Learned COMMISSIONER said that he was not prepared to say that he would not admit the opposition of a trustee with a cestui que trust. • Mr. CooKE said that the real point was to prevent the insolvent getting out of prison under the new Act, for if he succeeded in the pre sent application, it was morally certain that he would not attend again, The Learned Counsel submitted that if he made out a prima fade case, such as would bar the granting a final order then, that no pro tection ought to be granted. Mr. LEWIS urged, on the contrary, that no opposition could be made on the application. The Learned COMMISSIONER said the better way would be to grant Site protection. Mr. COOKE urgently pressed that he might prove that the insolvent was not, on the merits of the case, entitled to his protection. The fact was, he had been for a long time living at fashionable hotels, holding himself out as having abundant means, and living in the first style, but without any substantial means of meeting his eneagements. He had been drawing accommodation bills, and renewed others which he was unable to pay. The bills were for 1,0001. and upwards Under the circumstances, he considered there were good grounds to suppose the insolvent premeditated fraud, especially as he had spent a large sum given by his father and mother, without paying off his creditors, except by bills. Mr. Ogle was examined as to whether he was actually a creditor, and The Learned COMMISSIONER, after reviewing the facts, decided on not granting the protection. was clear- that although there were several persons in 01 ! shop who were served by the prisoner, she did not eass e any alarm or complaint, although she had every opportunity of doing so, but, according to her own testimony, she,,r,,,e mained for three-quarters of an hour with the man I% o°--- t she now charged with violating her. As to her statcraeu about throwing a piece of beef into the street in order tci t attract attention, he was prepared to show a far diff tre case ; for his instructions were , that when Mrs. Dell sante latte: back to the prisoner's shop with her husband, th,_ asked theprisoner if he had not take n indecent liberties wit; his wife, which was all that s he had told her husband, a'r the prisoner said, " Why I did kiss her, as I hav e known beds for years, long before you did ;" and they a ll shook 1 0 together, and parted friends. He was also prepared t h e if that when Mrs. Dell came out of the p arlour, she sat rs', down in the shop, and said,. " Now I think cif it, I'll not V till I have something for dinner. I'll have that pie ce c o roa sting beef." The prisoner said that wa s for a custornertb,"t she could not bare it ; and catered her two mutton chok s i ii gl she put the beef into her basket, and the prisoner wa s osieg ss o to take it away from her. She then took up the piece of ,''', Leef, when the prisoner said he could not put up with thatrei and she then threatened that she would go home and il ia her husband that the prisoner had ki ssed her, and therel(o be " a row." He then called 5 0 . 3' Mr. Hugh Harding, a retired golds mith, residing a,- , dor Marlborough-road. Had called upon the pr i so ner on r t s) m entioned by complainant. This witness proved b i t fyi ge door of the parlour was open, and that any perion 0 De ll into the room from the shop. Upon his entrance lqrs-• iv is was there, but did not appear excited and alarmed, nerot her apparel disordered.

LAW INTELLIGENCE SHERIFFS' COURT, Oct. 9. (Before Mr. Under-Sheriff BURCHELL.) FALSE DIFRISON3LENT—DAMAGES HALF A FARTHING. LIVINGSTON V. HAZELDINE. This was an action for false imprisonment. Judgment had been suffered to go by default, and a writ of inquiry was now executed for the assessment of damages. Mr. Hawkins Was for the plaintiff, and Mr. Ballantine for the defendar t. The plaintiff had hired an omnibus from the defendant, in the name of David Livingston, and was now described in the record as " Thomas Livingsto n, Esq." The d vehicle was seized - fur duty, and, besides losing the hire, the defendant had to pay about 30/. to get his own property back. A sum of 51. bad been paid by the plaintiff, who was given into custody on a charge of obtaining the omnibus under false pretences. He was taken to the Mansion-house, and after wards to Southwark Police - co urt, where he was discharged, as the complaint was a matter of debt. Counsel for the defence commented in strong terms on the conduct of the parties bringing the action into Court. The Learned UNDER-SHERIFF put . the case to the jury (who had previously intimated that they were agreed) as one in which the plaintiff was entitled to damages for the charge made against him, and he took occasion to remark that those who put the criminal law into force on a mere matter of debt must abide by the consequences. The jury would consider the name given by the plaintiff, and also the evidence in respect to his conduct. The jury consulted for a few minutes, and the n said, " the smallest coin will do for the plaintiff." Mr. Under-Sheriff BuncnELL--Then, gentlemen, the smallest coin now is half a farthing.—(A laugh.) The jury said it would be sufficient, and the damages were assessed at half a farthing! WATT 3 V. O'CONNOR—FASHIONABLE TAILORS' CHARGES. The plaintiff in this action is a tailor in St. James's-street, and the defendant is a furrier in Rupert-street. The semi claimed was 13/. 135., for articles of dress supplied. The de fendant paid 101. into Court, contending that that was the full value of the articles supplied. The plaintiff's assistant foreman was called to prove the delivery of the articles, and that the charges were fair and reasonable. peared on behalf of the defen - Mr. BALIANTINE, who ap dant, said he would admit that the goods had been delivered; in fact, he had a vest and unmentionables in the Court, so that tLejury themselves might judge of the value. Unfor tunately the coat had been given to a porter. As to the charges, lie must object. There was W. los. 6d. for a frock coat, and 10s. 6d. for facings ; 31.35. for a vest, and 21.85. for a pair cf the " aforesaids" and straps.—(Laughter.), The Witness—The vest is down in the bill as a rich figured silk velvet. The price charged can't be looked upon as un reasonable. Mr. BALLarrrixF , —Of course. The—those articles—l won't mention them—(Laughter)—what are they worth ? Witness-2 1 . Bs. Mr. BALLANTINn—What are they honestly worth ? Wit ness—That depends a great deal upon circumstances. Mr. BALLANTINE—IS the defendant what you term a " fashionable" man—one of those that you ought to make fashionable charges to ? Witness—l do not know what you mean. Mr. BALLANTINE—You say you do not know anything about fashionable men ; pray tell me the quality— Witness—The quality—the persons of quality? Mr. BALLANTIISE—NO, certainly not ; but the quality of this piece of cotton ? W itness—That cotton !—that's a piece of rich figured silk velvet, sled you'll find it so in the bill.—(Laughter.) The witness said theirs was a "wages house," and they allowed 15 per cent. for ready money. Mr. Raiker, of Saville-row, tailor, deposed that the charges were fair and reasonable, such as any respectable house would charge. There was, however, a greater difference between the charges at the west-end than there was between the west end and Whitechapel.—(Laughter.) Another witness said the charges were rather under than over [some of the jury shrugged their shoulders]. It was the custom also to charge interest on the account after the first year of credit had expired. Mr. BALLANTINE—Very good. It is 15 per cent. discount for ready money. Pray how much interest is put on to men of rank and fashionable men 14 ho don't pay up at the time, but are " certain?"—(Laughter.) The witness's memory did not serve him to enable him to say what has been the usual charge. In answer to the Learned Counsel's question as to the point of distinction between the Noble Duke, the man of fashion, and the aspirant, the witness said, " Dfess was all, and those who would have such dresses ought to pay for them."—(Laughter.) Mr. G. Christie, tailor, 11, Old Burlington-street, said the charge was fair according to the locality. Rents were high, and the charges in proportion.—(Laughter.) Mr. Jones, a draper, deposed that the velvet of the vest was of first-rate quality—real French, legally imported, and worth 30s. a yard. A Juror—bo you mean to say that's French velvet, and worth 80s. a yard? Witness—Yea, I do, and would say so before any gentleman. lamon my oath. Juror-II have no doubt what you would say to gentlemen, and we know you are on your oath. Mr. BALLANTINE addressed the jury, and said that he should leave the question to the jury as to whether the charges were fair and reasonable as against the defendant. Men of rank and men of fashion, who dealt with fashionable tailors, might expect to pay fur the fashion. They probably had long credit, and sometimes, by accident, the account was never settled.—(Laughter.) He did not mean to say that the tradesman should not protect himself by charging so as to make good debts pay for the bad, but it was very different in the case of one tradesman dealing with another. A tailor might deduct 15 per cent. from a nobleman or guardsman, after " laying it on" in the bill, or charge interest for six or seven years, but he was not entitled to put exorbitant credit charges on a fellow-tradesman, who was called upon to pay within two months. The jury returned a verdict for the defendant, and said the plaintiff had already been overpaid. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. Thursday being the day for the annual renewal of the music and dancing licenses (under the 25th of Geo. 11., c. 36) of the minor theatres and places of amusement in the county, the Court sat for that purpose, at the Sessions House, Clerkenwell-green. Mr. Pownall took the chair. The paper contained the names of 79 applicants. Of these ten were new applications. All the licenses granted last year, upon the appearance of the parties interested, were renewed. Amongst these, the Stadium, Cremorne-house, Chelsea, was opposed by a petition, signed by some of the inhabitants in the vicinity of the gardens, upon the ground that the extent to which " ballooning" had been carried of late by the proprietor, Littlejohn, induced a resort of idle vagabonds, which affected the respectability of the neighbourhood. The fireworks were also a matter of com plaint. Mr. Clarkson supported the application, and whilst he admitted that Mr. Littlejohn was an indefatigable caterer of amusement for the public, he represented the respec tability and the propriety which marked the internal arrangements, and contended that he could not be held re sponsible for the conduct of individuals beyond his control. The Learned Counsel presented a petition signed by about seventy of the inhabitants of the locality in favour of the application. Captain Fitzgerald spoke in favour of the petitioner. The Court renewed the license. Nothing else containing any feature of general interest occurred. _ THE COUNTY RENTAL. The annual returns of the parishes in the county of their respective rentals was this morning completed. Marylebone has an increase of 15,833/. over the precedingyear ; Padding ton, an increase of 23,4041.; St. Mary, Islington, an increase of 12,6331.; St. Leonard, Shoreditch, an increase of 8,048/. ; St. John, Hackney, Mile-end, wad St. Luke, Chelsea , an in crease of 5,0001. to 6,0001. each. The only instance of a large decrease was in the parish of St. Pancras, the return from which was less by 40,000/. or 50,0001. than that of the preceding year. The Court determined to have a new survey of the pro perty in that and some other parishes, and directed the ap pointment of a Committee for that purpose. The increase upon the entire rental of the county is about 90,000/. --_-------------_, 00 1 ' THE IRON TRAM 0,, r terif - v ia w ill' BiamiNGHAN, THURSDAY EVERINH.--The aria_ t ~ was , g en t iron-masters of South Staffordshire and ShroPswi' di ce el Pa, Town-hall of this town to-day, when the attenda. woe 10, from these districts, and from Wales, was nia ter°l9 O St 0 0 cedent. dsi s 94 0 1 9 It was understood, from what occurred sortie tit , Di e o p t if verhampton, that no advance would take place a t t he Ss al f orti, meeting; and at the opening of business to- 30 ' la il ic _TaiM''' Oi r pretty generally prevailed.

A CHILD SCALDED TO DEATll.—Yesterday after noon Mr. Carter held an inquest at the Old Bell Tavern, York street. York-road, Lambeth, on the body of Walter George Moon, aged twelve months, whose parents reside at No. 41, York-street. From the .evidence of several witnesses, it appeared that about a fortnight since the deceased was left in a room by himself, and, during the absence of his mother, he by some means pulled a quan tity of boiling water over his arms, face, and neck. He was taken to the Westminster Hospital, where his wounds were dressed, after which he was removed home, where he expired from tie effects of the injuries, on Monday evening last. Verdict, " Accidental death Item scalding." BELGIAN RAILUOADS.—An accident took place on the railway between Bruges and Ostend on Saturday night, which at first excited great alarm amongst the passengers. When within a league of Bruges a violent shock was felt, arising from the breaking of the axletrees of the front wheels of the locomotive. The machine went off the rails for a distance of about 100 paces, the train remaining behind on the rails. Aftersome time anotherlocomotive arrived from Bruges, and the train proceeded on its way without any person having re ceived injury. DEATH OF TWO HORSES BY HYDROPHOBIA.—Yes terday morning two carriage horses, belonging to George Tyright, Esq., of Cambridge-terrace, Bayswater, were compelled to be de stroyed, having been seized with hydrophobia. About ten days since a small dog, belonging to the groom, was observed snap ping at several things in the stable within his reach, and fearful that he was afflicted with hydrophobia, he was de stroyed. For some days past the horses have appeared ill, and were not allowed to quit the stables. On Wednesday a veterinary surgeon was sent for, and on examining them he pronounced them to be affected with hydrophobia. Yesterday morning they were both worse, when, to prevent further mischief, they were shot.

EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE OF VlOLATlON.—Yesterday Mr. Clement Hamblestone, a master butcher, living in Strong's place, Fulham-road, was placed at the bar by Inspector Morgan, before Mr. G. Clive, the sitting magistrate, charged on the police sheet with having violated the person of Mrs. Maria Dell, a married woman, living at Brompton. Mr. J. Bird, solicitor of Hammersmith, attended to defend the prisoner. Mrs. Maria Dell, a respectably dressed female, apparently about forty-five years of age, deposed that she was the with of William Dell, residing at No. 1, Prospect-place, Old Brompton. On the forenoon of Tuesday last, while passing the shop of the prisoner in Strong's-place, Fulham-road, she saw him standing at his door, and he called her to come in. She told him she should be back in a minute or two, as she was only going two doors further. She did return in about three or four minutes afterwards, when the prisoner was still standing at the door, and he told her he had something par ticular to say to her, if she would come in. She accordingly went in, and followed the prisoner into the parlour behind the shop. The prisoner then went up stairs, and returned immediately with a bottle of gin, and pressed her to have some. She took a small quantity. The remainder of com plainant's evidence charged the prisoner with forcible viola tion. By Mr. CuvE—Witness during the whole time kept telling the prisoner if he did not leave her alone she would tell her. husband. Witness had said, when she applied with her husband on the previous day at that court, that she had called out loudly, but she meant that she had called out loud enough for persons to hear that she would tell her husband of it. About five minutes after the occurrence an old gentleman came into the parlour. She was at that time sitting on a chair, being quite exhausted by her struggles. Told the prisoner in the presence of the old gentlemen that she would tell her husband, and the prisoner offered her anything not to tell her husband and the old gentlemen said," Oh, no ; don't tell your husband." Witness,'however, on leaving the prisoner's house, went direct home and told her husband, who went back with" her, when the prisoner acknowledged he was the guilty man, and that she (witness) was not in fault. Prisoner also said he would come up in the evening and talk the matter over. The prisoner did come in the evening to witness's house and said he wanted witness's husband to make it up. Witness's husband had a :knife in his hand at the time, and the prisoner said to him, " Run it through me, for I deserve it !" The complainant was cross-examined by Mr. Bird — Denied she had ever drunk gin or beer in prisoner's shop before. The shop was a small one, and there was a glazed window in the door leading to the parlour. Believed pri soner locked the door when they entered, and that she was in the room a quarter or it might be half an hour altogether. Witness went into the shop to try and find a policeman, in tending to give the prisoner in charge, but not seeing one she threw a piece of meat into the street, thinking it would attract attention. Would swear that she did not steal a piece of beef out • of the shop. While in the parlour the pri soner brought he: in part of a shoulder of mutton wrapped up in paper, and wanted her to take it, but she refused. Would swear that she put no beef into her basket. Would swear positively that she threw the salt beef into the street, and did not take it home with her. Did not say, when she left the prisoner's shop, that she would go home and tell her husband that the prisoner had kissed her. Did not see her husband shake hands with the prisoner on leaving the shop after she had gone back with him. Had made no communi cation to any one until she saw her husband. Had known the prisoner during the last eight years. He used to call on her at her house before she was last married. Had had .no connection with him since her marriage until last Tuesday. Had been married twice. Her first husband's name was Wayte. Would not answer as to whether anything took place between her and the prisoner before her marriage. Was last married on Whit-Monday of the present year. After it had happened, the prisoner went into the shop several times to serve customers who came in, but then the old gentleman was there. Mr. Bird submitted that the evidence of the witness was so grossly prevaricatory andntradictory throughout that no credit ought to be given to any of her statements. It , oif MA[ . - 4 , 46& - iter . 4 411011111191. . < - 'Aft • 31 0 7, tql gala (v turning LONDON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1845, Another great repeal meeting took place in Ireland on Monday. The scene was on the banks of the Lake of Kil larney, celebrated for its magnificent scenery, and the assemblage was said to amount to at least fifty thousand persons. The day was fine. Mr. O'CONNELL met, as usual, with the warmest reception from his grateful and kind hearted countrymen, and, with one exception, the cause of repeal was triumphant. Mr. MAHONEY, a gentleman of the county of Kerry, of an ancient and honourable family and independent fortune, came forward on the occasion, and, with a rare boldness, ventured to dispute with the Liberator the blessings anticipated from a ' repeal of the union, and his remarks contained so much truth, good sense, and sound discretion, that we would willingly give them at length, but for want of room. The substance, however, may be briefly stated, for truth requires no circumlocution. He came tothe meeting according to his statement to pay every respect to the Liberator of his country, because, though differ ing from him on the subject of repeal, he entertained for him the highest regard, and believed him fully determined to promote the welfare of his country. With the exception of perhaps a few bigoted Orangemen, this is the universal feel ing in Ireland, and as a proof that it is merited, Mr. O'CosnrELL's fame is not a thing of yesterday—it has stood the test of thirty years—from his entrance into public life to the present moment it has gone on increasing, and he has now more influence in Ireland than any one individual ever had in his • native country. Popularity without some firm base to rest upon could not have lasted for a tenth part of the period; it would have been scattered in the breeze, and some new idol would have sprung up for the worship of the Irish nation. But the great work of emancipation, the reform of the con stituency and the borough corporations, the improvement of the administration of justice, and, above all, his successful exertions to rouse Irishmen to a just sense of their rights, and to place them en equal terms with Scotchmen and English men, are national blessings of inestimable price, and justly merit for Mr. O'CONNELL the title of Ireland's best friend. His repeal mania we have ever denounced not only as hope less but mischievous, and we excuse him for his obstinate per severance in a wrong course on the ground that he believes it useful to frighten the Anti-Irish party in Great Britain, rather than that he has the most remote hope that it would ever be possible or beneficial to his country. The con fusion and the collision between the two countries which would ensue from separation, have often been pointed out, but never in more brief or more cogent terms than those used by Mr. MAHONEY. " The Liberator," said he, "had often argued that the golden link of the Crown should be preserved at all times; but he thought that the complicated relation which existed between both countries required more than that. That golden link would no doubt be preserved by the existence of the King, or Queen, or Regent, a Consul, or an Emperor; but the most important duties of the State were to be discharged by an Irish Parlia ment, and in doing so he had no doubt but that it would come to blows with the English Legislature. Mr. Prrr had foreseen that, and directed all his energies to bring about the union. In all their political movements it was necessary they should take such steps that it should not be deemed ne cessary to recede ; but in the present instance he thought that such would be the case, and that considerable mischief would be the consequence. He maintained that a repeal of the union would bring about a collision between the two countries, until the terms of the compact were previously ar ranged, and he looked in vain in any of the speeches in Con ciliation Hall or elsewhere for any plan in which such terms were proposed." Now here was an opportunity for Mr. O'CONNELL to defend his position, and he tried, but mi serable was the failure. He excited the good-natured au dience to laughter by some witticisms about Balaam's ass, taking a cow• to market to sell, and by asserting that the voict3.of Ireland could not be heard, for England had and w all the sett l eme nts to herself , " lock, stock, and handle," mound up these by calling upon his opponent to become a good re pealer, and "join with him in having Ireland for the Irish as well as Scotland for the Scotch, and England for the English." Was ever speaker driven to such shifts as this? Why, the whole of Scotland would rise as man to t against any the G overnmen t that would now attemptouch union. The time was, when like the Irish, they irei - e ignorant of its blessings ; when they would have fought for repeal if they could have obtained a leader of ability to conduct them, and when the question was all but carried in the British Parliament. Every Scotchman looks back on that happy escape like a man saved from a fatal precipice by a miracle. The union of the two nations has been beneficial to both ; they carry on as brethren the same trade at home as well as abroad, and the poorer country enjoys all the advan tages of colonial connexion, which, but for the union, would have been possessed by England alone. The period too is not far distant when Irishmen will be equally conscious of the advantages held out to her by union with England. All that is wanted is good government on the part of the more power ful country, and that is making rapid progress; but the ills of Ireland cannot be cured in a day. The Legislature—a Tory Legislature too—is convinced that Ireland must be sub dued, not as formerly by persecution, by Bills of pains and penalties, and by a large army, but by moderation and justice. We instance the Maynooth Bill, the Charitable Bequests Bill, the Academies' Bill, independent of others, which all show not se much the spirit that animates Sir R. PEEL as the new light which has broken forth upon the old oppressors of Ireland. Politics are now in a different position from what they were during the regime of the rotten borough sys tem. The people of England, and Scotland, and Ireland too, have a voice in the Legislature, and that voice will be raised in behalf of the sister country till • she is placed on au equal footing with her more wealthy neighbour. We have received Madrid journals of the 2d inst. The trial of ConrmA, MADOZ, and others, was still going on, but the interest in the affair had much abated, as an acquittal was fully anticipated. Accounts from Malaga state that two sergeants implicated in the military conspiracy at that place were shot there on the 26th of Sept. Some private transac tions in the Fluids took place at Madrid on the 2d, but nothing FLANDERS MAIL. BRUSSELS, OCT. 7.—The average price of wheat last week was 23f. 62c., and that of _rye, 15f. 56e. There was a pretty considerable de cline in the price of potatoes at Brussels the day before yesterday, 300 sacks were offered for sale ; the prices varied from 10f. to 13f. per sack, of 100 kilogrammes (2001b5.), which is 2f. less than in the preceding market. A letter from Mayence, published by the Rhenish Observer, says that a serious financial crisis prevails at Frankfort at this moment. Thus, on the 30th of last month, 20 per cent. was paid for the prolon gation of bills, whereas the rate of discount is generally 6 per cent. The writer of the letter ascribes this unfortunate crisis, in a great measure, to the all-powerful influence of Rothschild. He suggests the foundation of a bank, which, besides the financial advantage, would offer great political benefits to the state which should establish it. .

" SIR JOHN DE BEAUVOIR FOR Evinl Free and Independent Electors of Windsor,—Keep your powder dry. Your old friend, Sir John de Beauvoir, takes the field for the fifth time ; and, with the blessing of God on his and your united exertions, he hopes to obtain a great and glorious victory p , No other candidate up to this evening has publicly announced himself. The following are spoken of:—Colonel Reid, of the 2d Life Guards; Mr. John Walter, Bear-wood; Captain Bulkeley, Ist Life Guards ; Mr. Jeremiah Filcher, Southwark ; Mr. East Clayton, one of the sons of Lord Delawarr ; and Mr. J. E. Ansen, Private Secre tary to Prince Albert. The contest, however, is expected to be be tween Sir John de Beauvoir, Mr. Walter, and Colonel Reid, should these gentlemen come forward. It is stated that Colonel Reid will have the Government and Castle interest ; and that, under these circumstances, Captain Bulkeley will not offer himself. As, at the last election, in 1841, Sir John de Beauvoir polled only 130 votes out of a constituency of 642, his chance of being returned is supposed to be very remote. VICTORIA PARK.—The paling round the park is with a very trifling exception, all placed up, and the workmen are engaged in levelling the roads and footpaths, and in making pre parations for planting, which will commence generally in the spring. The last buildings required to be removed will be sold by auction next week, prior to being immediately pulled down. They include the Three Colts public-house, in Grove-street, celebrated for last two centuries as the most popular resort and tea-gardens the for the holiday-makers at the east end of the town.
