WEST LONDON LINE, The Committee having adjourned from Monday last to this day, In order to give time for an arrangement between counsel to be matured, met this morning at half-past eleven, Lord Brougham in the chair. The other members present were the Earl of Scarbo rough and Lords Hawarden, Sondes, and Gage. Mr. AUSTIN stated that an agreement had been made to the effect that a clause relating to the tolls should be omitted. Lord BROUGHAM was doubtful whether such an omission would be considered as an alteration in a money clause ; if so, the Bill would be thrown out. The Members of the other House were ♦ery capricious, and it YIDS impossible to say what they would con sider a violation of their privileges. Mr. Thompson, Secretary to the West London Company, was then called to prove certain transactions at a meeting of the Direc tors of the Company, with reference to a clause to which some ob• jections had been made. It having been agreed that the Bill should be reported to the House this evening by Lord Brougham, the Committee rose shortly before twelve o'clock. CORNWALL RAILWAY. Their Lordships met at eleven o'clock, the Earl of - Ellenborough in the chair. Mr. Woolmer, Mr. Levinden, a farmer, and Mr. Shepherd, a woollen merchant, were each examined in favour of the central line, and against the projected Cornwall one. Mr. John Clench, of Exeter, hotel.keeper, knew the traffic of Exeter very well. Nearly the whole of the traffic going westward from Exeter went by Launceston, Bodmin, and Oakhampton. Ex eter was the great focus for the western traffic. The witness gave an idea of the amount of traffic by public conveyances in that part of the county by stating, from authentic traffic tables, that whereas the traffic from Plymouth to Falmouth (65 miles) amounted to 20,843/., that from Exeter to Falmouth (100 miles) amounted to 53,3241. in the same space of time. Thought the central line would very much tend to promote the interest of Cornwall and Devonshire. A strong feeling existed in favour of a direct line from Falmouth to Exeter. Some other evidence was given of a like nature, and the traffic tables were handed in, in the discussion of which the Committee were occupied for a considerable part of the day, but the details of which possess no feature of novelty or interest. Mr. Moyle, a surgeon, residing at Penzance, and Mr. Teague, a merchant, residing at Penryn, gave evidence against the Corn. wall line, and in favour of the Central one. The latter said he thought the Cornwall line would prove ruinous to the trade of Penryn. Mr. Moyle preferred the Central line, because it was more direct, but would prefer the Southern line to none. Mr. Teague stated the important; fact that the import trade of Penzance was - as follows :-615 vessels had touched there in 1844 with cargoes of 35,000 tons; the export trade in the same time, 421 vessels, with cargoes exceeding 30,000 tons. THE SCOTTISH MIDLAND RAILWAY. - The Committee re-assembled at eleven o'clock this morning, and proceeded to hear the examination of witnesses in support of the Bill. Mr. Baird, M.P. , was the first witness examined, and spoke gene rally as to the advantages which would accrue to the iron trade from the construction of the proposed railway. Mr. Smith, of Deanstown, said that the laying down of the rails along the quay at Glasgow would greatly facilitate the traffic. He spoke also as to the stone about Glasgow, which he described as being very good and of fine quality. The trade of Glasgow had been for several years on the increase, and was likely to increase still further. Mr. Aikman, of Glasgow, was of opinion that the rails ought to be laid down on a level with the quay, and the traffic to and from the harbour would not be obstructed by them. One horse, with two waggons on the rails, would do more work than six horses with the ordinary carriages. He spoke also as to the coal trade and exports. Mr. Gibbs, who was connected with the shipping trade of Glas gow, corroborated the testimony of a previous witness. Mr. M'Murray, provision merchant of Glasgow, gave a statis tic3l account of the quantities of bacon, hams, eggs, and poultry, imported from the north of Ireland into Glasgow, and considered the proposed junction would greatly facilitate their transmission from the ships to their ultimate destination. Mr. Muldgreen, bookseller and magistrate of Glasgow, spoke as to the house property in Buchanan-street, the rents of which ave raged from 1201. to 3001. per annum. He considered that the general feeling of the ii.liabitants was in favour of the measure. Mr. Lindsay, a builder, and chairman of the board for keeping the houses in repair, tendered general evidence as to the value of property in Glasgow and the traffic through the streets. Mr. Thorland, surveyor, described to the Committee the manner in which the Junction Railways in Manchester were constructed, and stated he saw no difficulty in making the Glasgow Junction in the way proposed. Their Lordships then adjourned till eleven to-morrow. WAREFIEMI3, PONTEFRACT, AND GOOLE RAILWAY. The Committee on this Bill, consisting of Lord Monteagle (chairman), Lords Polwarth, Tenterden, Sudeley, and Falmouth, met this morning. Mr. George Hudson was called and examined by Mr. HILDYARD, He was connected with the York and North Midland, and the Leeds and Selby lines, and he knew the station at Nermanton well, which was used by three companies without the slightest inconvenience being felt. He thought central stations of great importance, as giving an opportunity to passengers to diverge to any part of Eng. land. The witness proceeded at great length to explain the dif ference of rates charged by the North Midland Company and of their rivals of the Manchester and Leeds line. He would cer. tainly undertake to supply the districts between Wakefield as effi ciently as the present Company, and at lower rates, because his ex penditure in the first instance would be so much less. The witness was cross-examined at great length by Mr. WILKINS, but he adhered pertinaceously to the opinions expressed in his exa mination in chief. Lord Wharncliffe spoke to the residential injury done to Mr. Smith by the proposed railway. Mr. Edmund Wand, merchant, Leeds, Mr. Atkinson, flax dresser, and Mr. Tarbolton, foreign agent, all gave evidence that the trades of Leeds and Bradford were infinitely superior to Wake field and Pontefract, and therefore they preferred the rival branch by Brayton, promoted by the York and North Midland Company, to the Direct Wakefield, Pontefract, and Goole Railway. Several other witnesses were examined on the same point, and gave evactly similar evidence. Their Lordships then adjourned till to-morrow. oxronn, WORCESTER, AND WOLVES HAMPTON RAILWAY. The Committee resumed its sitting to-day at eleven o'clock, Lord Auckland in the chair, when the examination of evidence fur the opposition was continued. Mr. Thos. Webb, glass manufacturer, of Stourbridge, was first examined. In comparing the Tring line with the Oxford, he gave his decided preference to the former, as it was best calculated to serve the trade of the town and neighbourhood, and had the greatest amount of population on it. Mr. Timms, of Worcester, deposed that he was a Director of the Tring line, which, in his opinion, would give more accommoda tion to that city than the section proposed by the Great Western Company. Mr. Wooley, ironmonger, of Ringby, Mr. Paxton, .land agent and farmer, of Bicester, Mr. John Gazey, Mayor of Banbury, and Mr. Jakeman, carrier, of the same place, severally gave evidence as to the superior accommodation the Tring line would give to their respective localities over the rival line. Mr. Joseph Steele, of Oxford, said that the narrow gauge scheme was in much greater favour at Oxford than the other. There was a large corn trade in Oxford ; the amount which went north, principally to Birmingham, was about 50,000 quarters, or 10,000 tons. There was likewise a considerable trade in wool. Besides the trade in the north they had considerable trade in the south. He considered the break of gauge at. Rugby would be of great inconve. nience to the Oxford coal and corn trade. The consumption of coal alone in Oxford was 50,000 tons annually. The remainder of the witnesses examined gave evidence to the same effect, being principally on the inconvenience, expense, and delay that would arise from the transhipment of goods on the Great Western scheme. The witnesses examined on the subject were Mr. Hardy, formerly manager of the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway, who gave a table of the amount of miles already made, and those proposed to be constructed, on the broad and narrow gauges, somewhat different from that he gave before the Commons' Committee; Mr. Macconnell, superintendent of the locomotive de partment, on the same line of railway ; Mr. Allport, manager of the Darlington: and Newcastle line; and Mr. Houson, the agent of the Messes. Pickford, at Birmingham. The following is Mr. Houson's table : RAILWAYS CONSTRUCTED AND PROJECTED ON THE BROAD AND NARROW GAUGER. Broad. Narrow. Made In progress 52 Projected Total 1,641 This table includes all projects up till now, taking only one in a aistrict where there are competing lines. The Committee then adjourned till to-morrow, at eleven o'clock STANDING ORDERS COMMITTEE. The Committee on Standing Orders met today, and the follow. ing Bills were passed, and ordered to be reported : IVIONDSOUTH railD HEREFORD (SOUTH WALES), SOUTH-WESTLRN (TUNBRIDGE AND TUNBRIDGE WELLS), BEENZZIIGILELIVI /IND GLOUCZSTER (STOIEZ BRANCII). HOUSE OF COMMONS. GROUP X. DIRECT NORTHERN LINE—rAnniNGD ON STREET EXTial This Committee resumed to.day at the usual hour, Viscount Courtenay in the chair. Mr. Paine, C.E., who was examined yesterday by Mr. Nias, the owner of property in Shepperton-street, corrected an inaccuracy which he had mode in stating that the error in the sec tions of the Farringdon-street Extension was outside the centre line. The witness attributed his mistake to the erroneous repre sentation of Mr. Webster's plan, and now positively declared that the deviation of eight feet two, as mentioned yesterday, existed within the limits. Mr. Wak cling, the vestry clerk of Clerkena ell, stated that he now wished to call witnesses to prove the injury which the construction of the lino would entail on the rates and trade of the district he re presented. The promoters of the Company had scheduled 468 houses to be taken down, the average annual rent of which was 201. a 1 7 6 20 0 0 5 0 0 100 0 0 50 0 0 25 0 0 Stock. 10 0 0 2 3 0 50 0 6 25 0 0 6 0 0 12 0 0 2 10 0 2 0 0 2 10 0 2 10 0 2 10 0 2 10 0 1 7 6 73 0 0 32 0 0 2 0 0 3 5 0 40 0 0 4 0 0 Stock. 2 0 0 2 0 0 Stock. 1 10 0 100 0 0 25 0 0 10 0 0 2 10 0 1 10 0 12 10 0 1 0 0 45 0 0 30 0 0 12 10 0 2 15 0 1 5 0 12 0 0 1 0 0 2 10 0 50 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 2 10 0 1 10 0 1 5 0 95 0 0 8 0 0 2 10 0 15 0 0 8 0 0 7 0 0 2 10 0 2 10 0 1 0 0 2 0 0 THE S UN, LON DON,_ FRIDA 1 EVEN ING, JULY 18, Ysds, year each, and the total amount of rates 1,4161. The parish would suffer from the destruction of this property, and the trade of the district being almost exclusively that of watch manufacturing, would be considerably injured, both by the vibration arising from the passage of trains on the contiguous line, and from the distant removal of the workmen, by the destruction of the houses in which they reside. Mr. Hux, examined by Mr. WAKELING—Is a watch manufac turer of Percival.street, Clerkenwell, employing more than thirty hands, all of whom reside in the immediate vicinity of the projected line. lf, however, the houses in which they now dwell are taken down for the construction of the railway, the trade would suffer great inconvenience from the removal of the workmen. The vibration caused by the transit of carriages on the line would seriously affect the manufac ture of watches; in fact, he thought no chronometer would go cor rectly within 50 feet of a railway. Mr. W. 'Connell, examined by Mr. WAKELING, a practical chronometer maker of Gloucester-street, corroborated the evidence of the preceding witness. The fluid body in the mercurial pendulums would be seriously injured by the vibration on the railway, as it would oscillate and destroy the accuracy of observation so necessary for the regulation of chronometers. Mr. Lockwood, an escapement maker and wheel cutter, gave similar evidence. Mr. William Mason, a printer and publisher, guardian of the poor, and auditor of the parish of Clerkenwell, deposed to the rate of the 968 houses scheduled for the use of the railway being upwards of 1,5001. He considered the railway would be far from beneficial to the district, arid in that opinion he was joined by the universal resident population. This having closed the case of the parish of Clerkenwell against wanted, and easier rates are taken. Scented Orange Pekoe has been sold to a fair extent at last week's rate•, but Flowery Pekoe has further declined in va!ue. Hyson Skin is a little the 4p, r, and not much wanted. SPIRITS.—There are several purchasers of Jamaica Rum ; pekes have further advanced fur good and fine descriptions whilst all otber sorts fully support the former value. Leewarr Island fully support the advanced rates of last creek, and is sti wanted. i3emerara has been in exceilent request upon forme terms. East India is still wanted, and fetch former rates There are few purchasers of Brandy for exporta•ion, the horn demand has been limited, and speculators refrain from opreat ing, but previous rates are supported. RICE.—To-day Bengal met with little attention, and the sound c f 2,445 at auction were nearly all taken in at the former value. SPICES.—To-day the market was well supplied with Cassia Lignea—at one public sale 6,200 chests were offered ; buyers were aexieus to purchase, and the the whole soil at an advance on former rates of 2s per cwt. INnico.—During the progress of the Sale the biddings were more animated, and the prices paid hitherto fully sup. ported. Proprietors bought in 45 chests, 12,071 chests have now Massed the hammer, of which 3,632 were withdrawn, and 1,215 bought in, leaving 7,224 actually sold. Ous.—Although deal Oil may be purchased at lower rates, still the home trade have opera'ed with caution. Cod is dull of sale, and reduced rates have been accepted. The stock of Seal has been further increased. Prices rule firm for Sperm Oil, and a good demand exists. Linseed Oil is not to be purchased upon lower terms, and the demand has been limited for forward delivery, however, a good business has been transacted. For Rape Oil there are a few buyers, and a further decline has taken place. Holders of Olive Oil are less inclined to realise. TALLOW.—Holders of Russian are more inclined to realize, and have submitted to a reduction on last Friday's rates on the spot of 3d to 6d per cwt., still the demand for soap and candle making purposes have been limited. For forward deliivery prices further gave way. Town Tallow has slightly declined in value the supply having increased. All other kinds have been purchased with caution, and prices are still on the decline. the line, Mr. WEBSTER called rebutting evidence. Mr. Terry, overseer of the parish, deposed that the line would travel through the very poorest parts of Clerkenwell, and the compensation for any deterioration in the rates would be but trifling. He considered that the railway would im prove the condition of the parish, as it would afford a readier mans and a greater inducement to the poor, who were receiving relief, to remove to other districts. The Irish paupers would more especially avail themselves of these facilities, and the number of casual poor would be materially diminished. Mr. Smith, a watch and clock maker, under examination by Mr. WEBSTER, assured the Committee that, when he visited a friend at Poplar, he never found the slightest variation in the re. gularity of his watch by the vibration of passing omnibuses, and he, therefore, inferred ~that the transit of trains would be equally harmless. _ BANK OF ENGLAND. • (From this Night's Gazette.) An Account, pursuant to- the Act 7th and Bth of Victoria, cap. 32, for the W eek ending on Saturday, the 12th day of July, 1845. Mr. HILDYARD, at a quarter before two, rose to address the Committee on the case of the Farringdon-street Extension Line, then closed. He assured the Committee that, though he had not intended to speak at'any length on the subject, it was his firm con viction that it was the most important element in the whole case, and the only feature which his opponents had never attempted to contravert. On a former occasion, when he addressed the Committee on behalf of the Direct lS'orthern Line, he had anticipated a saving of 800,0001. in that, over the other lines, so far as the antagonist schemes between London and York were concerned. But since the evidence had been of late adduced in course of the Farringdon-street case, that saving of 800,0001. had been swelled to 1,300,000/. ; and although the London and York could put forward their 914 miles, which they professed would be the amount of saving effected by their line over its rivals, yet, on the whole, the Farringdon.street Extension would, as he pledged himself to show, have the advantage of shortness of time, in consequence of the superiority of their gradients to those of the London and York. And, again, the distance between certain densely populated points of the metropolis and the terminus of the Farringdon. street Extension was considerably shorter than that to the station of the competing scheme. The distance from London-bridge to the terminus in Farringdon street, showed a saving of no less than 1,738 yards in favour of that point ; from Blackfriars-bridge, 1 mile 51 yards in favour of the same; from Waterloo.bridge, 1,351 ; and from Westminster-bridge, 970 yards The House resumed at Five o'clock. _ . —all in favour of the Farringdon-street terminus. He contended that the attempt of Mr. Gibbs, whom he designated a sharp shooter, had wholly failed to disprove the estimates, as given by Mr. Stephenson, than whom a more disingenuous witness could not be produced, whose evidence was never that of a partisan, but strictly in accordance with his high character as an unimpeached and unimpeachable engineer. The computation of 800,0001. would therefore be amply, suffi. cient, and connected as it would be with a most efficient and use ful, line if the Direct Northern were conceded, he called OR the Committee to grant the preamble of their Bill. Mr. HILDYARD having closed his address, evidence was called to prove the alleged errors in the levels of the London and York. Mr. Grantham, examined by Mr. WEBSTER—Is a civil engineer, and has surveyed the line laid down by the London and York. Divided the route into ten divisions, and, on comparing his survey with that of the deposited sections, found in one part an error of nine feet near Greenwood.plaee-road, another of 12.81 on the road to Welwyn, and a third of 11.92 feet at another juncture. The consequence was a continued error of 10 feet from the first points of error to York, and the effect would be that the rail at Newark Dike and the Chesterfield Canal must be lowered to a line with the water.' Cross-examined by Sergeant Waszionam—Does not think the error could be legally rectified by raising the road at the points where the errors were alleged : no engineering difficulty would exist whatever to such a course, but he thought the alterations could not be effected so as to come within the limit prescribed by the Act of Parliament. The cross-examination of this witness will be resumed to. morrow, the Committee having adjourned at half-past five, when his evidence was not concluded. THE LONDON GAZETTE. (THIS E VENING.) ST.

He was about, when interrupted by his Noble Friend, to pro pose the health of Mr. Handley, who had gained more prizes than he had for sheep ; but the Noble Earl having proposed his health, and the company having responded to it in so marked a manner, he could not but feel much gratified at the circum stance.— (Hear.) In reply to such' compliment he begged to be permitted to say that he was proud on every occasion to send stock to the shows of the Royal Agricultural Society,, because he believed by doing so, and by sending that stock from a distant part of the country to this locality, they would, by comparing, think their own stock not so good as they might otherwise suppose them to be. He had gone that day with his Noble Friend, the Earl of Powis, over a portion of his estate —a better farmed estate he had not seen in any part of the country—and doing so they called upon one of the Noble Earl's tenaats who showed them his sheep. He (the Duke of Richmond ) observed that the sheep were not of the most perfect symmetry. The farmer denied this, and offered to show as good wethers as any that he (the Chairman) could produce.—( A laugh.) He recommended him to wait till he had seen his, the next afternoon, and he would venture to say that when he had seen them, he would be obliged to him for not entering into the bargain which he had proposed.-4 Loud laughter.) It was natural for every farmer to think that the stock he was daily in the habit of seeing in his own farm-yard were the best in the world, and it was only by comparison that they could see the mistake under which they laboured. This was one of the great advantages of this society, and he believed much good had resulted to the country in consequence. He had long been a Southdowner. He had shown his stock on many occasions. He had often been beaten, and he had won sometimes. He would still continue to show, whether beaten or otherwise, because that by showing he did good to the agriculture of the country.—(Hear.) He had told them that he was proud of being a competitor there, but he felt more pride at receiving from gentlemen to whom be was, lie might say, unknown, such a mark of their esteem as that which they had displayed towards him that evening. He hoped they would accept from him the expression of his heartfelt gra titude for the compliment they had paid him.—(Applause.) The Noble Chairman having read the prizes awarded respect ing pigs, said that the contest was a" dead heat" between Lord Hill and Mr. Fisher Hobbs, who was, by the way, as honest and straightforward a tenant-farmer :as any in England. He had great pleasure in proposing the healths of Lord Hill and Mr. Fisher Hobbs. Lord Hum expressed his acknowledgments, and said that but for the existence of the Royal Agricultural Society, he should not have done anything to advance the interests of agriculture.—( Hear. ) Mr. FISHER HOBBS also expressed his acknowledgments. Mr. ORMSBY GORE proposed " the health of the exhibitors i of implements." In doing so, he said, in reply to the argu ment used as to the use of machinery being calculated to di minish labour, that, on the contrary, it had, wherever it was brought into operation, increased the demand for manual labour.—( Hear, hear.) He had no hesitation in saying that the more improvements that were made, ar.d the more valuable the implements became, the greater would be the call for manual labour.—(Hear, hear.) The engines employed in agriculture had been used with great advantage in our colonies, and the result was, that hundreds and thousands of acres had been brought into useful operation, which would not otherwise have been the case.—( Hear.) He congratulated them upon the very great exhibition of implements which had been shown on the present occasion. Mr. RANSOMS, of Ipswich, expressed his acknowledgments, on the part of the exhibition. He proposed " the health of the stewards of departments."—( Applause. ) Mr. SHILLEY, on the part of the stewards, returned thanks. The CHAIRMAN said that Lord Kenyon had offered a pre mium of 201. for the best essay on the use of gorse as food for cattle, horses, and sheep, and the award was now about to be read. [The seal of the letter which contained the award was then broken, when it was found that the successful essayist was Mr. O. Roberts.] In continuation, he said be was sure that they would agree with him in thinking that this was a subject of great importance in a healthy district, and one that had not hitherto occupied much of the attention of the agriculturist.— ( Hear.) He would here observe that when the British army were engaged in the Peninsular war, they were frequently without corn or hay for their horses, and without having much experience as agriculturists, they gave them what they could get, and that was only bruised gorse. The essay would be published in the journals of the Society, and he had only now to propose, the health of Lord Kenyon, who had so liberally come forward with a premium in reference to a subject, the exposition of which must be of great value and importance to his neighbours and tenants.—( Hear, hear.) Lord KENYON returned thanks. The compliment which had been conferred upon him was greatly increased in conse quence of the source from whence it had emanated.—(Hear, hear.) The motive that influenced him in giving the prize was, that it was important to the small farmers of Wales, being adapted to the soil, and requiring nothing but labour. Though neglected at horna, it was not so abroad, for in the Peninsula, where the Noble Chairman had fought aide by side with the great men who had preserved the liberties of Europe— ( Cheers)—in that country they had a saying, " That an acre of gorse was better than an acre of oats."—(Hear.) The Hon. Mr. Crave proposed the health of Earl Spencer. —( Cheers.) Whether as President or Vice-President of the Society, or as Steward of the Yard, or indeed in any situa tion in which the Society was interested, there would the Noble Earl be found, working out its welfare. The Society did good in various ways. By these annual meetings they formed friendships—they removed prejudices, and caused an interchange of opinions ; and, in short, they brought farmers from all parts of the kingdom to become united together ; and he would remind them that the tenant-farmer would not be ex pected to undertake experiments unless there was a prospect of his being remunerated thereby. —( Hear, hear.) It could not be supposed the farmer would expend his means for the benefit of the country, without any regard to his own interests. Let the landlord then endeavour to promote the welfare and comfort of the tenant by an improved understanding between them. There should be a fair understanding in the way of agreements, which would enable landlord and tenant to be united in carrying out these advantages. He was in hopes that an opportunity for this would shortly be offered.—(Hear, hear.) Let them en deavour to follow the example which bad been set for them by the Noble Earl, whose health he was about to propose, by ex tending the sphere of usefulness through the districts in which they might reside, by creating a spirit of emulation from one and to the other.—( Hear, hear.) Ile begged most cordially to give the health of Earl Spencer.—(Loud cheers. ) Earl SPENCER said he was much gratified by this mark of their esteem. If credit was to be given to him for endeavour ing to promote the success of the Society, he would only say that he would continue to deserve that credit by every means in his power. He felt how important it was to the agricul ture of the country that meetings of this kind should be held, to promote the cultivation of the soil, and thus to better the condition of the people.—( Applause.) The Society, he was happy to say, was now in a most flourishing condition, and every one admitted that it was useful and beneficial to the in terests of the country. Mr. Clive had alluded to the mechani cal skill which had been brought to bear upon the interests of agriculture. He believed that almost every science might be brought to bear upon their profession, but he was satisfied that mechanical science would accomplish the greatest good of them all. There was one point which he wished to impress upon the Society, and that was, that the price of a machine ought to be considered in awarding a prize to it, because, if their object was to improve the condition of the country, they mast not encourage implements which the farmer could not afford to buy. —( Applause.) He believed that every other science would benefit by these meetings as well as agriculture. He begged again to return thanks, and to assure them that he should ever be ready to assist the county to the utmost of his power.—( Loud applause.) The " Judges of the Show," " His Grace the Duke of Richmond, President of the Royal Apricultural Society or England, and thanks to him for presiding ever us," and other toasts, followed. His GRACE returned thanks, and concluded by giving Ladies," which was warmly responded to. The company then retired. "The Mr. THOMAS DUNCOMBE moved that the Committee on the Bolton and Leigh, Kenyon and Leigh Junction, North Union, Liverpool and Manchester, and Grand Junction Rail way Companies Amalgamation Bill, have leave to report forth with. Mr. M. GIBSON opposed the motion on the ground that the people of Manchester were opposed to the measure. Mr. DUNCOMBE said three days would be lost if the House did not allow the report to be brought up new. The opposition in Manchester was as feeble as any opposition could be, and as little deserving the notice of the House. Lord G. SOMERSET thought that, under the circum stances, the House ought to assent to the motion, on the un derstandit,g that the report would be printed, and in the hands of Membsrs to-morrow. Mr. T. DUN COMBE was understood to agree to the con ditions. Mr. BRIGHT said that the interests of the public ought to be considered as well as those of the Company. After a few words from Mr. COBDEN not heard in the gallery, The report was brought up and ordered to be received. Lord JOHN RUSSELL presented a petition in favour of the Ten Hours' Bill. MESSAGE FROM THE LORDS. Several Bills were brought up from the House of Lords. NORTH WALSHAAI SCHOOL BILL. This Bill was read a second time. SMALL DEBTS BILL (No. 3). The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said'he believed that the Bill he was about to introduce had met the unanimous ap proval of both sides of the House. He proposed that as he had several clauses and amendments to add to it, that the best course would be now to read the Bill a second time, and go into Committee pro forma. The clauses and amendments could then he printed with the votes of to-night, and placed in Hon. Members hands. The further considera tion of the Bill and any discussion on it could be taken next Monday in Committee. Mr. WA KLEY was satisfied with the Bill as it stood. A Bill was very much needed to correct the evils of the one passed last year. He thought they ought before consenting to the course suggested by the Hon. and Learned Gentleman to know the character of the Bill as altered by him. Sir J. GRAHAM considered the course suggested by his Noble and Learned Friend the best that could be adopted, as Hon. Members would be possessed of the printed amendments before their consideration being entered upon. The Bill was then read a second time, and committed pro fornaci, and the Chairman asked leave to sit again on Monday. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE wished to call attention to the case of Eliza Price, who had been imprisoned for stealing a halfpenny-worth of coals.—(Hear, hear.) She had been chained to the grate of the back-kitchen of the house of the officer who had taken her into custody, and when h sister called in a few days after, she complained of the state in which she was, and requested that some soup might be given her. (1 he Hon. Member read the statement made by the sister.) He thought this a case of gross oppression—a girl confined during four days to a back room, chained to the grate ; and he thought that it called for inquiry. Sir JAMES GRAHAM said that the case referred to by the Hon. Gentleman was perfectly new to him, but he would direct a letter to be sent to the Lord Lieutenant of the county, requiring him to raise the question, and when he should be in possession of the facts, he should lay them on the table of the House. (LEFT SITTINCIL) BETTING AT LIVERPOOL. THURSDAY NIGIIT, TWELVE O'CLOCK. LIVERPOOL ST. LEGER. 2 to 1 agst Mentor—taken 2 to 1 agst Pantasa—taken FATAL EFFECTS OF WEALTH.—Yesterday afternoon an inquest was held at the Jolly Anglers, Kentish.town, on the body of George Carter, aged forty.one, late of 5, Trafalgar. place, Kentish-town. The deceased had been originally a stone-mason, and some time ago married a lady having a fortune of 5001. a.year. As soon as he became possessed of the wealth he indulged in every excess, was seldom or never sober, and, according to report, would drink thirty glasses of gin before breakfast. A disease of the lungs and liver, and ultimately delirium tremens, were the consequence. On last Sunday, while labouring under delirium, he attempted suicide, by inflicting several wounds with a razor on his throat and abdomen. He lingered until Tuesday, when death closed his career. Mr. Mullins, the surgeon, said that he died of a disease of the lungs and liver, and not from the wounds. Verdict—Natural death. SINGULAR ESCAPE FROM DROWNING AT BLACK • FRIARS-BRIDGE.—On Thursday afternoon a narrow escape from drowning occurred at Blackfriars-bridge. A boy about nine years of age, the son of a bed-sacking manufacturer, residing at No. 1, Norway-street, Old-street, St. Luke's, had been playing with some other boys at the extreme end of the common sewer, known as Fleet-ditch, on the north.west side of the bridge, when he suddenly slipped, and fell into the river. The force of the tide drove him out into the stream, and he passed under the third arch, near the pier, on the eastern side. An alarm being raised, a boat under the direction of Mr. John Ware, the pier -master, instantly put off and although the body had disappeared, the cool and deliberate judgment of Mr. Ware had the effect of ascertaining the precise spot where the boy had sunk, and with the hitcher he at once brought him to the sur. face. Having been got out, the boy was carried in an almost life. less state to the receiving house, where having received prompt medical attendance, he ultimately recovered, and was conveyed home. ALTERATION IN THE JULY LIST OF THE MORNING MAILS.—The following very important alterations have been made in the list of morning mails, corrected up to the Ist of July, by command of the Postmaster-General. The revised list bears date the 11th inst. :—Brampton, Burton (Westmoreland), Hartlepool, Haydonbridge, Hexham, Northallerton, Ripon, and Stockton-upon- Tees, are removed from the morning dispatch; consequently, news vendors sending papers, and parties posting letters for any of the above towns, must be aware that no bags for either of them will be made up until evening until further orders. It ought also to be generally known by the public that in .addition to the towns alphabetically given in the printed Post-office list, the following towns have bags made up and dispatched every morning :—Brent. wood, Chelmsford, Chester.le- street, Chorley, Colchester, Dorking, Dudley, Dursley, Gurnsey, Hythe, Ipswich, Jersey, Kelvedon, Ito. chester, Rye, Tetbury, Witham, and Wooton-under-Edge. For those places, as well as all the other morning mails, including all Scotland and the whole of Ireland, letters should be posted at the several receiving houses throughout the metropolis, by 8 a.m.; newspapers by 7 a.m. At the several branch offices, excepting Losnbard.street, letters by S a.m. ; newspapers by 7 30 a.m. At the Lombard-street and General Post-office, letters by 6 30 a.m., and newspapers by 7 35. VERY HORRIBLE.—A correspondent of the Cin cinnati Herald relates the following occurrence. It is said to have occurred near Oakland Cottage, Mississippi :—" A slaveholder, a short time previous to his death, made provisions for the liberation of his slaves. Those whe were entrusted with the execution of his designs failing, or refusing to carry out his last will and testament concerning the slaves, the latter became impatient to enjoy their long looked for boon. At length, disappointed, expecting to be sold, and incensed at their oppressors, they set fire to the overseer's dwelling and burnt it to the ground. A little child, which they were unable to rescue, was consumed in the flames. The slaves, eight or nine in number, were taken, and two of them hung on the spot. The others were taken into an old log house and chained to the floor. The house was then set on fire, and these poor victims, by a slow fire, burned to death in this most shocking manner, while the air was rent with their unavailing shrieks and ROYAL BIRTH AT PAISLEY. —In days of yore Paisley and its neighbourhood were occasionally favoured as the residence of Kings and Queens, and royal births, under peculiar circumstances, have taken place there. The birth referred to in the present notice is not, however, amongst the sovereigns of the the parent, whelpedt ,are i human race, but the king s of the forest.

ROPE ENOUGII.—We have often heard of " long yarns," and of giving a man " rope enough," but we think the rope just manufactured by Mr. Thomas Briggs, of Richmond Hill Ropery, Salford, outdoes any of which we have heard. It is 4,374 yards, or nearly two miles and a half In length ; weighs up wards of two tons and is without any splicing, and all in one piece or length. It has been made for Messrs. G. C. Panting and Co., in connexion with the works at the New Theatre Royal, Manchester.

Several Bills were brought up from the House of Commons. WEST LONDON RAILWAY EXTENSION. Lord BROUGHAM reported that the Select Committee on West London Railway Extension and Lease 13111 had fonnd that the standing orders had been complied with, and they had agreed to the Bill with some immaterial amendments. STATE OF THE COUNTY OF LEITRIM. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE presented a petition from the magistrates and others of the county of Leitrim, setting forth the state of that county, and praying their Lordships to adopt some steps to improve that condition. The petitioneas suggested that the best remedy which could he applied to the evil was to extend the law which at present granted compen sation to a particular description of property when the pro perty should be maliciouly injured, to all descriptions of property, and also to injuries upon the persons. Having presented that petition, he would proceed to put the question of which he had given notice, relative to the conduct of Mr. Watson, a Magistrate and a Deputy-Lieutentant of the county of Leitrim. It would appear that, on the 22d of June, a meeting, attended by 300 Masters of Orange Lodges, was held in the town of Lisburn, which meeting was pre-. sided over by Mr. Wilson. At that meeting the following resolutions, which were signed by Mr. Watson, were passed. The first resolution stated that the meeting deemed it essential to take immediate steps to reorganize the Orange institutions of the county, and the second stated that inasmuch as that unjust measure entitled the Anti-processions Act was about to expire, all the Orange members of the county be re quested to attend the forthcoming anniversary of the Boyne. He had received a letter from the Noble Marquis at the tab!e (the Marquis of Londonderry), in which he deprecated the conduct pursued by this gentleman. He therefore wished to know whether the Go vernment had taken notice of his conduct, and had dismissed him from the commission of the peace? If they had not, and had behaved to him with lenience, they had acted•inconsistently, as they had pursued a more liberal line of conduct towards another great political party in Ireland, if they had not made inquiry Into the circumstances as he had detailed the cry might fairly be raised that justice had not been fairly meeted out to Ireland. He wished to know if any steps had been taken in consequence of the meeting over which Mr. Watson presided at Lisburn, on the 20th of July? Lord STANLEY regretted that the Noble Marquis had not simply asked his question, and explained the object of it, without entering into the state of the country. Her Majesty's Government had seen with regret and with considerable disappointment, that through a great part of Ireland the members of Orange Societies had been so reckless in their proceedings as to neglect the cautions which had been given to them by those who ought to be entitled to their confidence and esteem. As long as both the great political parties in Ireland continued to fo ment disturbances it was quite impossible that city could be in a happy or prosperous state. The blame which attached to many processions ought not to be attribnted to one party to the exclusion of another equally to blame.—( Hear, hear.) With regard to the conduct of the person complained of, if the facts were found as they were represented. Her Majesty's Government would deeply regret that a gentleman, occupying a high station in Ireland, should have been so misguided and so misled as to lend his name and his character—and the higher the character the greater evil — to the meeting in question. He would not say, however, that the matter had been left untouched by the Government, for the Lord Lieutenat of Ireland had been in communication with his Noble Friend the Secretary of State on the subject. The question as to how he should be dealt with, he (Lord Stanley) was not prepared to say. He trusted that the Noble Marquis would not call upon him to declare the result of that communication ; but this he would say that the Government would treat the matter with the greatest impartiality. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY wished to ray a few words on the subject, as he had been alluded to by the Noble Marquis. With regard to the character of the individual whose conduct was called in question, he had no hesitation in saying that up to the present time that individual had conducted himself with the greatest prop riety. For his own part, he had urged upon the Orangemen of Ireland to refrain from those processions, and he thought that the great majority of the Orangemen of Ireland had taken no part in them. (LEFT iITTINIR.) HOUSE OF COMMONS. The House met at Twelve o'c!ock. LUNATICS BILL. The report was brought up and agreed to, and the Bill was ordered to be printed with the amendments. DUBLIN JURY PRESENTMENTS BILL. The report was agreed to, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time on Monday. ECCLESIASTICAL PATRONAGE (IRELAND) BILL. This Bill was read a third time and pawed. DRAINAGE OF LANDS BILL. This report was brought up, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time on Monday. JURORS' BOOKS BILL. The Bill went through Committee was reported, and ordered to be read a third time on Al onday. POOR - LAW (SCOTLAND) BILL. The report was brought up and the Bill ordered to be read a third tine on Monday. THE HIGHWAYS BILL. This Bill went through Committee, and the report ordered for Monday next. VALUATION (IRELAND) BILL. The House then went into Committee on this Bill, and on the first clause being read, a discussion ensued, in which Captain Jones, Sir T. Fremantle, and Mr. Sharman Crawford, took part, and the clause was agreed to. On the reading of the 2d clause, after an observation from Mr. S. CRAWFORD, Sir T. FREMANTLE said that the valuation was divided into three classes—those counties in which the valuation by Mr. Griffiths had been completed, those in which it was not yet begun, and those in which it was partially proceeded with, and he thought it would be better to w a it until the valuation was completed before they proposed any alteratio n in the Bill. After some further discussion the clause was agreed to, as was also the 3d and 4th clauses. On the sth clause being proposed, Mr. S. CRAWFORD moved that the follo w i ng clause be inserted after it And be enacted, th at in respect of all valuations of lands to be made under the provisions of this Act, the Commissioner of Valuation, or the Su b - Commissioner ap pointed to value the same, shall base his estimate of the rent for which the premises might he reasonably expected to let from year to year upon a csideratioxi o f the productive powers of the soil, according to the natural qualities of such soil under a fair application of lab our and skill in the improvement and m anagement_ of the same, and under such rotation of cropping a s such Commission ers shall deem most suitable to the quali t y of so and the c i rcumstances of the premises; calculating the valuei.l c of the produce at such prices as he shall ascertain to be the average of the prices of the five years preceding the time of such valution. And after having made such estimate of the value as aforesaid, ard of the proper and reasonable rent as founded thereon, it shall be law ful for such Commissioner (and he is hereb y so required) to take into consideration whether the pr em i ses so valued are affected by any peculiar. local ad vanta ges or disadvantages, which might operate o n the fair letting va l ue, and he shall thereupon raise or reduce his estimate of value and rent ac cordingly : provided always, , that in the return which he shall make of his valuation, tne amount and causes of such addition or reduction shall be specially stated, and also the prices of produce at which such valuation shall have been com puted; and in all casses he shall make his valuation on an esti mate of that amount of rent which, in his judgment a solvent tenant might be fairly ex pected to pay, acco r di ng to the quality of land and circumstances of the premises." After some observations from Sir T. Fremantle, Sir R. Fer. gluon, and Alr. S. Crawford, Viscount CLENIENTS objected to the Bill proceeding fur. ther ; there were only three Irish Alembers in the House, and not more than sixteen Members altogether. He objected to the principle of the Bill• the principle of the Bill from the commencement to its ter mination. The Noble Lord then moved that the House be counted, and added that he would take every means in his power to defeat the Bill. Mr. GREEN, the Chairman of the Committ ee , t h en counted the House, and there being only twelve Members present, he quitted the Chair, and The SPEAKER having entered the House, DOWNING-STREET, JULY 17.

The Average Price of Brown or Muscovado Sugar, for the week ending July 15, 1845, is 31s. 10,1. per cwt., exclusive of the Duties of Customs paid or payable thereon on the im portation thereof into Great Britain. MARKET IN TELLIGEN CE. (From the London New Pa ice Current of July 18.) SUGAR.—To-day there was only a limited business trans acted in any sort of West India Sugar, and rather lower rates were taken for the qualities at and above 46s per cwt, making the decline for such during the week of 6d to is per cwt, but inferior grey and brown kind fetched prices on a par with those of last Friday. REFINED. —To-day the purchases made in Refined goods by the home trade were extremely limited, and further reduced rates were taken ; brown lumps selling at 68s to 68s 6d, and standard lumps 69s to 70s per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar is higher, sales having been made at 41s to 41s 6d per cwt for the best. u RITIUS.—The trade have shown less inclination to pur chase, and only a limited business has been transacted in any description by private treaty. Holders however have shown firmness, and supplying the market sparingly, previous rates are sustained. At pubtic sale yesterday 544 bags were only partly sold at the former worth. FOREIGN.—To-day, at public sale, 184 boxes of damaged white Havannah at public sale were sold at full market rates; viz., good slightly damaged at 36s 6d, middling 35s to 35s 6d, low 33s to 33s 6d, and damaged low to middling 31s 6d to 345. Two boxes of sound went at 27s for very low, and at 37s for middling quality. 430 boxes of damaged yellow Havannah fetched stiff rates, goods slightly damaged 27s to 27s 6d, mid dling 26s to 26s 6d, fine 28s lid ; damaged low to goad 24s 6d to 265; and 21 cases of damaged brown Bahia brought 24s to 25s per cwt for middling. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon two parcels of Bengal Sugar, amounting to 2,273 bags were submitted to public competition, and the whole sold at an advance of 6d to is per cwt, low yellow went at 43s to 445, low middling bright 483 to 495, middling 50s to 50s 6d, fine strong and bright 55s to 55s 6d, damp and washed 39s to 555, fine sound brown 41s 6d to 425, and ordinary grey 45s 6cl per cwt. The inquiries were nu merous after Foreign and Foreign East India Sugar, but busi ness was checked by the extravagant prices that were asked. For a parcel of 20,000 bags of Manilla, including damaged, 26s 6d per cwt was refused. AlowsEs.—The market has a very dull appearance for West India, and the trifling business transacted privately has been at lower rates, the supply is on the increase. For East India a few buyers are to be met with, 13s to 13s 6d is about the value of Madras, and 17s to 17s 6d per cwt for Benga Treacle. COFFEE.—This afternoon the market presented a quiet ap pearance for home traffice Coffee. At public sale 34 bales of Mocha sold at 60s to 62s 6d for middling greenish clean garbled. COCOA.—Trinidad has been much inquired after this week, and the supply being scanty buyers were compelled to pay stiffer rates. TEA.—lmporters of green ate still desirous to realise, arid a further decline in the value has occurred. Black Tea, how ever, is still held with firmness. Congou has been purchased with caution, but little variation has taken place. Pouchong is still wanted, and at rid to 9d per lb several parcels have been sold. Twankay hai has been sparingly dealt in, but at at present no general decline is observable.

ADoLrliES.—We regret to an trounce the death of Mr. John Adolphus, the celebrated barrister, which took place suddenly at the house of his son, Mr. J. Leyeese ter Adolphus, in Montagu street, Russell square, at a late hour on Wednesday night. Mr. Adolphus was one of the oldest member, in the criminal courts of this country, and father of the Old Bailey bar. The deceased gentleman, in early life, raised himself to dis. tinction is the metropolitan courts of criminal jurisprudence, and in a few years worked his way into a large and lucrative practice. Mr. Adolphus on various occasions throughout his professional career had distinguished himself in a very remarkable manner by his extraordinary talents, judgment, and energy, especially during the memorable trial of Thistlewood in 1820, when he was only re. tained as leading counsel on behalf of the conspirators a few hours before the trial commenced, notwithstanding which, though the trial was one of the most interesting and momentous which perhaps ever took place in a criminal court, involving as it did the liberties and lives of many individuals, he displayed as much legal know. ledge, mental acuteness, acquaintance with the facts of the case, and professional talent generally, during the protracted proceed. logs, as if he had devoted an entire month to the preparation of the defence. The manner in which he acquitted himself was equally the admiration of the bench, the bar, and the public. That he was physically equal to the subject was the suprise of all who were aware of the fact that he had sat up the whole of the pre. vious night for the purpose of mastering the principal facts of the case, scattered as they were over an immense mass of evidence. His statements and arguments were as clear and ingenious u his cross-examination of witnesses was skilful and felicitous. Mr. Adolphus spoke with much ease and fluency, and on all import-ad occasions displayed talent and eloquence of the highest order. He has died sincerely lamented by a very numerous circle of friends, Among the literary efforts of the deceased gentleman may be mentioned the " History of the Reign of George III.," the seventh vs lume of which has just eppeared ; the " Political State of the British Empire," 4 vols. ; " Biographical Memoirs of the French Revolution ;" " Life of Bannister," 2 vols., &c.—Times. PRESENT TO lIER MAJESTY.—During the last few days a great Lumber of visitors have been attracted to the London Docks, owing to the fact of the Isnaum of Muscat having sent to this country four thorough-bred Arabian horses, intended as a present to our beloved Sovereign, Queen Victoria. The animals, notwithstanding the wildness of their Nature, have, by the constant attention displayed towards them, by the keepers, or grooms, whet are from the wilds of Arabia, exhibited a wonderful degree et docility and gentleness. Captain Short, of the Caroline, who has , been entrusted with the care of this royal present, assures us that though acquainted for a number of years with the charasteristic nature of these noble animals, that, during a voyage of 116 days, they have evinced a quietude hitherto unknown to those who have had more experience in the importation of this breed of horses than himself. They are in perfect health, and no doubt will be fully appreciated by her Majesty. No fewer than fifteen vessels are daily expected at Lancaster from Dantzic, all laden with timber ler the use of the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway Company. On Wednesday afternoon the Eagle, GravPsend steamer was on her way up the river with an excursion party, w;jo had been to the Nore, when one of the passengers, a young man residing in the neighbourhood of Milton-street, City, attempted to get into the boat astern of the vessel, which was suspended by the usual ropes to the davits. Some of his friends endeavoured to dissuade him from the attempt, but he remarked that it would be a ewe place to smoke a cigar in, and got into the boat, which he had no sooner entered than it turned on one side, and pitched him into the water, and despite immediate assistance which was rendered, he sank before any one could reach him, and was drowned. The occurrence happened off' Blackwell. THE TURN-OUT MILLWRIGHTS AND MECHANICS. —The tnillwrihht~, moulders, mechanics, and boiler makers, who turned out on the 6th of January, at Messrs. Walker, Hacking, and Co.'s, Bury, still remain on the strike, but their places have all been taken up by hands from other places. The number who turned out was upwards of 350, but most of them have got employment in other shops ; the number now out is from 100 to 120, who are supported by the trades' unions, Scc.—Manchester Guardian. Yesterday the marriage of Viscount Lascelles, eldest son of the Earl of Harewood, and Lady Elizabeth Joanne de Burgh, eldest daughter of the Marquis and Marchioness of Clanri. carde, was solemnized at St. George's Church, Hanover.square. The arrival of the Marchioness of Clanricarde with the youthful and lovely bride was delayed by a contre temps, which happily was not attended with any serious consequences. Oa their way to the church, near New Burlingtonstreet, the off side horse slipped on the wood pavement in Regent-street, and by his fall thepole of the carriage swerved and caught one of the hind weeds of an omni bus, when the pole was broken about three feet down. The coach man, by this accident, lost all command ever the horses, and, turn. ing round, both animals became lodged between the posts at the corner of New Burlington-street. Several gentlemen were promptly at the carriage, and assisted the Marchioness and Lady Elizabeth to alight, and they were obliged for a short time to re. main at Messrs. Holmes's. The servant immediately proceeded to the church, and the Earl of Harewood's carriage was shortly in readiness to convey the bride and the Marchioness to the church. After the ceremony the bride and bridegroom left for the Marquis of Clanricarde's mansion, on Carlton House-terrace, and the wed ding party then separated. The happy bride and bridegroom left town shortly after two o'clock for Lord Carteret's seat, fawns,. place, Bedfordshire, to pass the honeymoon.
