ENNISKILLEN and 11th instant, the anniversary of the battle of Attglir;e:, so fatal to the Irish arms, under St. RUTH, in 1691, and still regarded by the Irish people of that district as a day of traditionary mourning. After an interval of less than ten years, so little is the regard paid to the solemnly recorded and often vaunted self-dissolution of the Orange faction and discontinuance of their processions, that at this very gathering it was publicly announced that the mist vigorous measures are being taken t'or the re-estabe lishment of the one, and the periodical renewals of the other. So that we have but " scoteti'd the snake, not kill'cl it." How deeply are such manifestatiOns of unex tinguished party virulence to be deplored by all who have really at heart the welfare of Ireland. And how instructive, though fearful, a commentary do they supply, on the inevitable results of the " Monster Meetings" anti reckless agitations'of the ultra-advocates of Repeat. Thin: result is—in a word—reaction ; and of that reac tion, the unhappy victim is—the noisle country herself, the fiercest passions of whose excitable people are thus appealed t'., with equal vehemence, by parties the most diairetrically opposed, the one to the other, in their p dither! opinions, übjeets, and declarations. We are tempted to despair, almost, of the pacification of Ireland when we see how readily these latent embers of com oustioe, which we hoped the foot of legislation had ve me years Since crushed into extinction, can be again kindled by the hot breath of reckless partizanship. At the same time we are compelled to acknowledge that it would have been, perhaps. to exp. ct more of human nature—as it exists in ordinary temperaments at least—than human nature is gifted with. tc look for a perfect abstinence from obtrusive display in one of the two great sections into which the Irish community is divided, under the species of perpetual challenge and de fiance which are habitually addressed to it by the over boiling zeal and intemperate enthusiasm of the other. Why cannot the Irish people seriously emulate the ex ,mph. which has, from time to time, been set them by almost every established nation that exists, of merging party or factious objects in an *.47fieient, not a lip-na tionality—in a genuine, not a declamatory, vindication of the equal rights, neither of particular families, nor creeds, nor alliances, nor associations, but of the whole Irish people ? On this side the Channel, no advocate of those rights has looked on at the progress of political agitation on the other with a more sincere desire than ourselves that such agitation might speedily determine in the establishment of that full, fair, and true equality for Ireland which is enjoyed by the other members of the Imperial ; nor has taken greater pains to en• I :oree upon public attention and acquiescence the indefea 6:ble character of her claim to that equality. But we must fairly own that ire have seen much in the movement and the political manifestos of our Irish friends, little calcu lated to conciliate support or sympathy among their compatriots here; much that has been emphatically ex pressed in a tone, if it was not conceived in a spirit, of .nsult to the feelings and the prepossessions of the peitp!e of England ; and still more that has been said and done with the worst possible air of intended menace and intimidation_ in addressing those upon whom the arts of intimidation, or menace were in every respect certain to . fail. That which we have long been painfully an ticipa ti pg,htte. now Kt nal lyeocnuiTed.e.:.:gliat evittrapiein of politico-religious faction is abroad *Lin ; anti the 7.i?ponsibility of having invoked this display of it will ;trove far greater, we apprehend, than they imagine who have incurred it. We can find but one excuse for the part assumed by Lord GEORGE LOFTUS on taking the chair at this "demonstration;" and that occurs in The fact announced by himself from the chair—namely, that ha, is a very young. 'Men." . As•fpr the. reverend exeilitors on the occasion, they ought to have known 'over. but we suppose they are incorrigible. If we are. io have the High Protestant and the High Roman i!athol.c factione again throwing the firebrands of civil and religious discord at one another whenever they encounter in Ireland (as where do they not ?);—if we are to have processions with one set of colours and en nizances marshalled against others with other distinctive emblems ; and arrays of physical force parsded with all the " pomp and circumstance" of organization, in po ouloes districts of the country, on fair days or saints' days. a collision of parties must ensue, the horror or the event of which no man can foresee. All that has been lone tow arcs the holy work of conciliation will speedily he obscured, eradicated, and forgotten a and the vessel ef the Irish State will be fast drifting upon that lee• shore of political convulsion and social disorganization which she has hitherto so often approached but so often weathered. Were Ireland herself bodily launched by some tremendous effort of nature into the centre of the Atlantic Ocean, she would not be farther removed from her present geographical position than the revival of the fatal Orange faction in all its development, together with its inevitable eencernitant, the revival of the immense nutagenistic forces opposed to it, would remove her poli tical 1 - ind moral destiny from the track in which itscourse .:hould be steadily shaped, in order to arrive at the goal of her true welfare and her permanent prosperity. We cannot close this article, without expressing our regret at the uncivil and ungenerous treatment to which Mr. Thomas STEELE appears to have been exposedin the town of Enniskillen. The temper and moderation with which he behaved, under circumstances that would have been irritating to any gentleman, but might have been expected to be especially annoying to an individual in his position, exhibited a combination of becoming epirit and dignified forbearance which leading advocates (.// ',pinion:" and parties in Ireland might imitate with advantage. • The Universal German Gazetie states that,%"Within , :he last few days ten extensive domains have been per ei,a,,,4,d in the Grand Duchy of Posen, and there is every reason to imagine that these acquisitions have bten made for the Je:Atits.

It is said that the principal cause which led to this resolution on the part of the General was the arbitrary arrest of 120 persons by General Narvaez, while General Conchha was at the head of the army, and in pursuit of the in.turgents. General Concha, besides, protested against the interference of Chiro, who was the agent of the police in the time of the Count d'Espagne, and whom General Narvaez has taken away with him.

BOROUGH OF SOUTHWARK. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) The vacancy occasioned by the death of Mr. Benjamin Wood, will undoubtedly be filled by Sir William Molesworth, whose previous services in the cause of liberal government, and whose address now issued, amply satisfy the wishes of a vast majority of the electors. It will be remembered that when thocootesVai*. - 04(Ce between 'Mr. Wood end .- Mr. Walter, a section Of tte RadiCal party coalesced with the Tories in supporting the latter. on the ground of his ultra Opposition to the new Poor-law Bill; but that in spite of this, and of a most lavish expenditure of money, the majority for Mr. Wood was about 600, leaving many promises un polled. But now the Liberals of all shades of opinion are united in support of Sir William Molesworth, no other candi date would have the remotest.chance. Mr. Jerehtiah Pitciterc Who has announced his hopes of being selected for the honour. is one of those waverera about whom it is unsafe to assume anything. He would fain be thought to be independent; but if any public act of his may be taken as an index of his political predelictions, his vote for Mr. Baring, in opposition to Mr. Pattison, at the last City election, might be taken in proof of his Toryism. The Tories, however, disown hint, and talk of putting up some more declared and consistent supporter of their principles. Mr. Daniel Whittle Harvey is the third candidate named, but we believe by no means ascertained, as an tecedent to his consenting to stand, must be the vaca tion of his office as Commissioner of the City Police. Sir William Molesworth has the advantage of a very powerful Committee, formed of electors from every district., parochial or sectional, in the borough, having canvassing-books al ready prepared, and all the machinery of an election in active operation; for which himself, and the Liberal party at large, have to thank the Southwark Reform Registration AsSociation composed of a large number of the most active and influential electors. Among many erroneous statements which appear in the Times of yesterday, and oue of which the Morning Advertiser has not escaped, is the assertion that certain pre liminary meetings of the electors had been attended by Mr. Black, the late editor of the Morning Chronicle. That gen tleman has not taken the slightest part in the affair; and it is unaccountable how Sir William Moleswort h's friend, Dr. .1. R. Black, could have been assumed to have any con nexion with the Morning Chronicle, either past or present, as we are assured that his name, on either occasion ' was not even mentioned with reference to that journal. For our selves, we have the utmost reliance on the prudence and vigour of the Liberal electors of Southwark, and, therefore, on their success. [-MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. (From ne Sqnof Last Night.)

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. !VFSTERN I?,iiLWAY COMPANY. The half-) early general meeting or the Pi oprieters this company was held, pursuant to the Act of Parlia ment, at the Bristol Railway- station, on Thursday, for the general purposes of business. Mr. C. Russell, M.P., took the chair at one o'clock. The attendance of Proprietor: was very numerous, the large room in which the meeting was held iieine com pletely filled. The tiotice convening the meeting having een read by . Mr. Saunders, Secretary to the company, The CHAIRMAN seid. that at the last half-yearly meting of the Proprietors the i,irectors submitted to them the various scheme: they had in contemplation hitt the protection of their own interests, and forathireit.g m. re extensive accommodation to the public, and it we, most, satisfactory to the Directors that all those schemes had been practicslly carried out.—(ilear.) t.e Cornish line was the only of e in which they hod taken any arise interest which tool not pissed into Lsv ; and that t ro jea might tether be regarded as having been poscpoi,ed than as having been defeated. The Cornish line had reveived the sanction of the House of Commons, hut was rejected by the Lords, wider circumstances which justified the belief that the general scheme ;net their approval, and that their assent was with held from it only in order that it might undergo some modification and improvement. The South Wales and the Monmouth and Hereford lines were considered undertakings of such great national importance that the Legislature departed from its usual course to sanction them, though it was found necessary to postpone that portion of the project relating to the passage of the Se vern. He (the Chairman) believed that the mode in which Mr. Brunel proposed to pass that river would have effected a substantial improvement in its navigation; but the Board of Admiralty thought otherwise, and it was therefore necessary to postpone the further consideration of this portion of the plan. He hoped, however, that before the next session of Parliament the Directors of the Great Western Company, with the assistance of Mr. Brunel, would be prepared to recommend some plan for connecting the great western railways with the impor tant principality of Wales, which might meet the objec tions to the former proposition. The Oxford and Wol verhampton and the Oxford and Rugby lines had involved the Great Western Company in a somewhat severe contest with the Birmingham Railway Company; but he wished it to be distinctly understood that the Great Western Company had not been the first to adopt mea sures of hostility and aggression. —(Hear, hear.) The success which had attended the lines of railway projected by the Great Western Company was, in his opinion, and as had been stated in the House of Commons, mainly attributable to their adaptation to the wants of the districts through which they passed. Ile could assure them it would never be the policy or the purpose of the Great Western Railway Company to strain the principle of competition, either for their own undue aggraedisetnent, or for the wanton injury Of' their neighbours.—(Hear, hear.) The success which had attended the various schemes they had submitted to Parliament had rendered it necessary for the Directors to consider to what extent and in what mode the capital of the Company shy uld be increased. The Directors, taking a prospective view of their financial position for the four years from 1845 to 1848, found that they would require, during that period. about 1,600.000/. for the new works in centempletion, and about 600.0001 to pay the debentures and total notes which would fell due within that time. That amount, 2,200,000 L, was nearly equal to one-half of their present share capital ; and the Directors had, there fore, thought it advisable to issue new shares,, in the ratio of one -half new share to the holders of each whole old share. Ten per cent, only would be called for immediatei, on the new shares, and-the- eemaindee of the " calls,' he hoped, would nut be required until 1847, and 1848, by which time many of the new works would be completed, and the receipts of the Company would be proportionably increased. The ,proprietors must regard with satisfaction the steady progressive increase which had taken place in the receipts of the Company, notwithstanding the reduction of their charges upon passengers and merchandise. The projected hoe of railway from Oxford to Worcester would necessarily give rise to two other schemes—a railway from Oxford to Cheltenham, a distance of bout 20 mils, and a line from Worcester to Pert Dynllaere which would afford the most direct line of communicatien wish lrelarele The Directors had desired Mr. Brunel to survey that pate of the country, and he (the Chairm-,n) was convinced the proprietors would arm them with power to render tiny aiti and a• , sistanee to companies formed with the object of carrying out those lint.- which they might consider advisable- 'The heti. eentletean ttotti railed on the secretary to read the report. Tftr SECHFITARY then re-; , 1 the repw The Directors present on this occasion the u•ual accounts of inctme and expenditure for the information of the Pro prietors, which they trust will be considered as satisfactory evidence of the progress►ve prosperity of their affairs. The line from Kemble to Gloucester was opened f.r public use on the 12th May last ; and the revenue account, therefore, comprehends the receipts over that portion of line , 'wring the interval to the 30th June. The rent for the use of ;he Bristol station by the Bristol and Gloucester Railway Gutpany from the Bth July last, and for their use of the line between Stone house and Gloucester from the 12th of May, are included in the same account ; while the interest of money for the period antecedent to the opening from Kemble to Gloucester ►s carried to the credit of the Company, in diminution of that which has been paid during the construction of the works. The arbitration which was pending to - determine the com pensation receivable for the conveyance of mails up to the 22d of June, 1544, has been closed by an award which has brought to the credit of revenue a further sum for that service. The Postmaster-General has thought fit to require another ( being the third arbitration) in respect of the mail services performed by this Company since that date. R. s. d. The total receipts to the 30th of June are 433,296 16 2 The expenditure for the same period Leaving 'balance of ........£274,9 . 29 12 10 During the last half-year two calls have been made upon the Proprietors, which entitle them to a dividend upon an in•. creased capital of 408,056/. After defraying the interest on money borrowed, and the rent of the Bristol and Exeter Rail way, the nett income will admit of a dividend of 41. per cent being paid on the whole capital called up--viz., on 4,080,656/., and the Directors recommend that such dividend be now de. dared payable on the tat of September next. The amount of it will absorb 1612251. 44. 9d., and leave a balance of 1,6961 ss. 7d. to be carried to the nex►. account. _ _ During the last half-year considerable reductions have been made both in the fares of pas-engets and charges on inerehan dive, wh.ch, before an increased traffic can be attracted on 'he line and developed. will naturally have had some influence in diminishing the receipts of the Comrnv- The Direc,ors, how. ever, feel with co, florae.- that the result will eventually justify the steps they have taken, and that the future revenue will be improved by the lower rat , a of charge. The Dig ectors derive great sattstaetion from bring enabled to record in this repot- the success of their several important ap plications to Parliament tturing the recent seaajon.

It seems obviously the interest of th. Proprietors in any such operati..ti to keep steadily in view the m.notertailee at least of the present rare of dividend on the subscribed capital, and the Directors confidently entertain the opinion that, exercising prudent caution in that respect, a new subscription mat be now raised to the amount of one.half of the r ireaent shares in this Company. For such purpoies they rt.enmmerid that the sum of 2,325,000/ be capitalised in 93,000 quarter shares of 251. each ; and that the other be made rate 'lily to each Proprietor who may be registered upon the books on the 6th September next, of one half the amount held by him in shares, viz. :—two quarter shares in respect of the 100/. sh tre—on. quarter share in respect of the 501. share—two quarter shares in respect of five Tit shares. The Directors should be em e owered to arrange eqnitably between any Proprietors holding less than five of the fie n shares of 20/. each, so as to distribute among, them the fair value of any fractional parts of the new share , and iu the event uf re fusal, or neg:ect, to accept and pay upen the quarter shares, within a prescribed time, authority shored be given to dispose of such shares for the benefit iit the Comp, rty.
