CATHOLIC LAW AND GENERAL LIFE qJ ASSURANCE COMPANY, 8, NEW COVENTRY-STREET, LEICESTER-SQUARE, LONDON. The FOURT El ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the Proprie tors of this Company took place on the 25th instant, at the Head Office, at One o'clock precisely. The following is extracted from the report, which is too lengthy for publication : During the past year no claims have arisen from deaths in Englatyi, and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other for 260/.—making together 7001., which have been paid. This is far below the expected mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how severely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last year. The number of lives assured between the let of June, 1549, and the 31st of May, 1850, was more than double the number issued in the twelve months preceding. Prop ,sals were made for 138 Policies, amounting to 52,9631.25. 6d.: of these 121, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 63. gixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,048/., upon which 3201. 3s. was received by the Company in the shape of premiums.

BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D.. 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON. Doctor of Medicine. Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &C. This work contains an accurate and complete account of the ♦natomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs. It un fortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indul gence and vicious habits, while suffering from their invariable con sequences, unwisely entertains a fear of applying to aqualifie&physi clan for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erro neously entertained that those complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for assistance where alone it can be procured. Dr. LA'MERT has taken the highest medical honours, as his diplomas testify, and the great extent of his practice far many years is a guarantee for his professional experi ence, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

Oats improved Id per bushel, and oatmeal 3d per load. Barley, beans, and peas were without change. Indian corn continues to be held with energy. but the demand is not active; the best American yellow is worth 20s per 480 lbs. BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, OCT. 18.—Advanced rates have egain bean paid this week for all descriptions of sugar, and a very large business would have been done but for the limited supply offering. The estimated sales since our last are under 700 casks West India, in addi tion to about 500 boxes Havannah, and 1,000 mats Mau ritius, sold by public auction with all faults. The re aped market has been active, and is rather dearer. Rum in good demand, but not higher.—Bristol Mercury. EXETER, OCT. 18.—Cattle--There was a large supply of stock of all sorts driven in, and a pretty full attend ance of dealers, but complaints were pretty general of the dullness of the market.

Corn Exchange— The market to-day has been well attended, but holders have shown no disposition to press samples on the market, and though we notice but little alteration in prices, the market has been suffer, and the turn in favour of the seller. Warranted samples of new wheat are worth quite .53 per bushel, and in some instances a penny or twopence per bushel over that figure has been made. Old wheat is firmly held at 5s to 5s 61 per bushel. Holders of foreign ask in general late rates, but are doing no business; one factor was offering Egyptian wheat at 4s per bushel (good for feeding, but not for the miller), snd dark red French at 393 per quarter. More business h d2eft a ooai s wtcd6.h b l;: e , en done in malting barley, the maleters having commenced operations; 3s per bushel has been freely given for new, and 3s to 3s 48 for old. Oats are rather dearer—new oats being worth 2 e and old ditto 2s 3d to 2s 61 per bushel. Fine flour, 30s to 31s per sack of 2801bs. BANGOR, 0.7.

THE CLOTHING MANUFACTURES. WOOL TRADE, LONDON, OCT. 17.—The market has been rather quieter, but is still very firm for most de ecriptions, the consumption being good. The imports of wool into London during the week ending to-day have been 5,126 bales, of which 1,179 were from Algoa Bay, 1,579 from Bombay, 805 from Port Phillip, 398 from Nelson, New Zealand, 384 from Bombay, 201 from South Australia, 450 from Berdianiki, and the rest from Germany, &c. FOREIGN WOOL, LEEDS, OCT. 18.—Most descriptions of foreign and colonial wools have been in fair request this week, and prices are very firmly maintained. HUDDERSFIELD, OCT. 15.—The market has only been thinly attended by purchasers, and since last Tues day the warehouses have not had any very great de mands to supply. The small parcels disposed of to-day have been principally for the home market and goods waned to make up small stocks. The lull in the de mand for goods experienced for the past few weeks is at tributed to the season of the year more than to any fall ing off in the general market, and when a few weeks more have passed over, it is expected that the recent ac tivity will again be manifested. BRADFORD, OCT. 17.—Wools —There is a little inac tivity prevailing in the demand for combing wools, the prices being far too high for the consumers' limits, and there is no prospect at present of their being lower. Noils and. brokes are in good request at late prices. Yarns—The various rumours as to the price of yarns have tended to deter buyers from entering freely into new purchases, but for such kinds as are suitable for Russia the market is quite free, and as the spinners have been generally working to order, there are no stocks on hand. The accounts from Leipsic fair are favourable, and as yarns suitable for that market have not been so much inquired for, there is more disposition to buy if an inducement in price is offered. Pieces—The demand for heavy goods suitable for winter is pretty active, but the cost of the raw material rules so high, and the diffi culty to procure it so great, that the quantity produced must be limited. In Orleans and Coburga there is only a limited business doing to assort the merchants' stocks. MANCHESTER, OCT. 17.—There has not been much change in the market since Tuesday, the tone of the market being still rather depressed. Some improve ment was perceptible in the demand for India fur the finer counts of yarn suitable for that market. India houses are also operating more freely in 40-inch shirt. ings, and other light fabrics. There is not much busi , in the Greek ness doing for the Continental markets. There is but houses.little in q u T i rhye, home either trade for yarn are operating cloth but sparingly, and, as regards this particular district, short time work ing among the power-loom weavers has seldom been more general. Such of our spinners as are able are bundling warps for export. MINING INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDFORD, FRIDAY NIGHT. To-day having been appointed for the re-examination of the parties charged with being concerned in the murder of the Rev. G. E. Holiest, very considerable excitement prevailed in this borough in conseunence of its having become known that Hiram Smith, one of the pri soners, had made a confession since the last hearing, which, while it implicated himself in the matter, at tributed the death of the deceased to one of his com panions in guilt. Especial care had been taken by the authorities to keep all knowledge of Smith's con fession from the other parties charged; and when the prisoners were brought together this morning the three men—Levi Harwood, James Jones, and Samuel Harwood—had neither of them the slightest concep• tion that their colleague, Hiram Smith, had made any disclosures. Mr. George Best, chairman of the local bench, ar rived at the House of Correction shortly before ten o'clock. He was followed by Mr. E. Bray, of Shere, and Mr. George Gibson, of Farnham, two local magistrates. Major Birch, also in the commission of the peace for the county of Surrey, arrived shortly after ten o'clock, and joined his brother magistrates, Before the prisoners were introduced Mr. Keene, the governor of the House of Correction, at the re quest of the Chairman, made the following. state ment On Sunday morning last, as I was leaving the chapel, Joseph Sylvester, one of my turnkeys, came to me and said that the prisoner Smith desired to speak with me. I went to his cell directly, and asked him what he wanted. He said he wished to have some private conversation with me. I shut myself into his cell, upon which he said, "I wish to see Mr. Hollington, in order to ascertain from him the mean ing of the last bill issued about this Frimley affair." He referred to the bill offering a reward of 1501. and a free pardon. He said he did not speak with refe rence to the reward, but the pardon. I told him that the handbill required no explanation, and any one who could read must be able to understand it. He asked me if I thought it would be acted upon. I re plied that I could give him no information on the subject, but I supposed the bill would not have been issued had not the authorities intended to abide by it. I then cautioned him before be said anything more, and told him to under , stand that anything he might say would be taken down, and might be used against him or any other parties. The prisoner said he was aware of that. I then told him that as he had asked for Mr. Honing ton, before he said anything more 1 thought he had better see that officer, and then if he wished to say anything he could do so. The prisoner here burst into tears, and exclaimed, "I am not the man who fired the pistol." I replied, " I don't wish to hear anything more; as you have asked for Mr. Holling ton you had better see him." The prisoner saw Mr. Hollington on Monday morning, when the caution previously given to him was repeated in the presence of that officer and myself. The prisoner having ex pressed a wish to see one of the placards offering a reward and a free pardon for an accomplice, a bill was obtained and shown to him, and on seeing it he asked the meaning of the word " accomplice," and put seve ral other questions in reference to the matter. At length he said, " I have made up my mind. It be hoves every man to take care of himself, and I shall speak all I know. If I am wrong I am, and must abide by the consequences." The Chairman said he thought they. had better not receive this statement until the prisoners had been brought together. He would suggest that they should now call the accused parties and proceed with any other evidence that might be forthcoming. The prisoners were here brought from their respec tive cells, and each attended by an oflicer of the gaol. When introduced to the room where the magistrates sit, a turnkey was stationed between them, the gover nor himself taking up a position between Levi Har wood and Hiram Smith. The prisoners looked better than on the occasion of their last examination, and so little suspicion had three of them of the fact of the fourth having confessed, that one of the former, Jones, during a temporary adjournment of the pro ceedings, actually joked with a bystander on the subject of his confinement in the gaol. Mr. W. Holiest having explained the nature of the evidence to be deposed to by the witnesses in attendance, several witnesses proved that the prisoners were seen in' Guildford on the afternoon of the 27th of Sept., and that later on the same day they were seen going in the direction of Frimley. - William Penny, aged fourteen years, was next called, and said I know the prisoner Smith. He always went by the name of the " flyman." I have known him about a couple of months. I remember the 27th of September. I heard of the robbery at Frimley on the Saturday morning after it took place. Three or four days before it happened I saw Flyman standing in the Swan-yard. Oa the Wednesday be fore the robbery I saw Flyman standing in Mr. Black man's marine-store shop, in Market-street, Guildford, looking at some pistols. I knew it was on Wednes day, because my master bad been out the two previ ous days with cigars, and he was out again at Farn ham on the Thursday. I heard the prisoner ask Mr. Blackman the price of the pistols. I did not hear what Mr. Blackman replied. Mr. James Adsett, gunmaker, of St. Mary's, Guildford, examined. He said—l know all the pri soners. On the evening of the 27th of September last, as I was turning out of the Ash-road into the Frimley-road, I saw two men, one some few yards before the other. The first man had passed the Ash-road a little, and was going on the Frimley road. Smith was the second man, and it was him I met. I cannot swear to the person of the first man, because he bad passed me, but I thought at the time it was Levi Harwood; and when I hea rd of the rob bery the next morning .I communicate d m y suspicions to Mr. Biddlecombe. I saw a third man about 3.00 yards behind Smith coming in the same direction. He crossed the road before I cam e u p to him and got under some trees which overhung the road at this point. I cannot say who this man was. Mr. Thomas Freeman exam ined —He said, I am a carpenter, and live at 'Worplesden. I know Levi Harwood, and I believe I have seen Samuel Harwood and James Jones before. About six o'clock on Sa turday morning the 28th of September, as I was get ting up I saw a man pasa my house in the dir ec ti on of Guildford. He had on a green roundabout, and a kind of light coat. 1 think the prisoner Jones is that man. Richard Gyles, man servant to the deceased, next repeated at length the evidence he had previously given before the coroner. Alfred Blackman, marine store dealer, said he had had some conversation about three weeks ago with a young man about pistols, but could not swear it was the prisoner. Thomas High, police sergeant, of Chil worth, near Guildford, examined. He said—On Wednesday, the 2d instant, I received a warrant to search the lodgings of James Funnel), the prisoner Jones's brother-in law. lie lived at a beer-shop called the Malt House Tap, in Portsmouth-road, Guildford. I found a quantity of green baize ' and a small piece of white ribbon, as well as a small marble, all of which I pro duce. I also received a warrant to search the house of Samuel Harwood. I there found in a box a jacket belonging to Levi Harwood, and tan empty power , flask, both of which I produce. Examined by Mr. Hollest—The jacket looked The witness hereupon remained silent. Richard Macey, bricklayer and parish constable of Frimley, said he recollected seeing the prisoner Smith in conversation with the late Mr. Holiest, near the residence of the latter, about two o'clock on the after noon of Tuesday, September 24. Witness was at work nearly opposite where they were standing, and when the prisoner left Mr. Holiest he came over tc him and held up two small dishes, which he asked witness to buy. He said he had tried to sell them to the old gentleman he had just left, but lie was a " tight fit." He added that he had tried it on for a bit of " chuck" (food), but that was no go. He then asked witness how many servants the old gentleman kept.— (Sensation.) Witness replied he thought about three or four. Nothing else of importance passed between them. He told witness that he had come over from Farnham, and that he thought there was to be a fight at Frimley that day. lie added that he was present at the fight in which Griffiths was killed a few weeks previously near the same spot. George Everest, keeper in the service of Mr. J. F. Burrell, was next called—He proved having found the silver communion cup stolen from the deceased's house, and also two green baize masks, on the morn ing of the 34 of October, in a field belonging to his master, about three quarters of a mile from Frimley parsonage. The articles were produced by the witness. The masks were of enormous size, and with the holes cut for the eyes and mouth, properly adjusted, would have reached down to the chest of an ordinary sized man. They had all the appearance of having been made up by men and not by women. Mr. Edward Kendall, sergeant in the metropolitan detective police, was examined. lie proceeded to de tail the manner in which the robbers had effected an entrance, and all the other facts connected with the burglary. His testimony varied in no particular from that of Superintendent Biddlecombe, of the Go dahning police, a full report of whose examination before the coroner appeared in this journal of the Bth inst. Mr. Kendall produced a shirt which the de ceased had on when he received the fatal wound, a small ragged hole high up on the right breast of which indicated where the missile had perforated. Superintendent Hollington said—Oa Sunday last something passed between myself and Mr. Keene which induced me to come to this prison on Monday morning. I was informed that the prisoner Smith had expressed a wish to see me. When I arrived he was brought up from his cell into this room. Levi liar wood hero directed a piercing glance to wards Smith, who kept his eyes fixed upon the ground, and appeared anxious to avoid ok)servation. Mr. Hollington continued—When he came in Mr. Keene said, " Here is Hollington." Smith then asked to see one of the reward bills. As I had not got one with me I produced the "Hue and Cry." I after wards sent for a bill, which the prisoner read himself. After doing so he asked me to explain the meaning of the word " accomplice," and what was meant by a free pardon to any one who did not actually fire the shot ? I told him he must use his own judgment as to what it meant. He asked me if the terms of the bill would be acted up to if he was to "peach ?" Mr. Keene and myself both told him that he had got the bill before him, and he must use his own judgment. We added that we could neither of us hold out any hope to him, in consequence of what he might say. He then said he knew it was plain enough in the bill and he had made up his mind to make a statement. Levi Harwood and the other 'prisoners exhibited much uneasiness at this juncture, and looked fiercely towards Smith. Mr. Makepiece (to Mr. Hollington)—Did you give the prisoner a caution when he said this ? Mr. flollington—l did, sir, and so did Mr. Keene several tirneF. We told him that anything he might say would be taken down and used against him on his trial. Mr. Keene here repeated the statement he had made at the opening of the inquiry, and handed in a written document dictated to himself by Smith, which Mr. Makepeace read, as follows 7 - On the 27th of September last, being Friday night, myself, with other persons now in custody, named James Jones, Levi Harwood, and Samuel Harwood, was at Frimley, and broke into Mr. Hol lest's hi by taking out a bar. I entered first and Levi Harwood second. With a worm Levi Harwood bored two holes in the frame of the door leading to the kitchen, and pushed back the bolt with his knife, and then myself, Jones, and Levi Harwood went in and there looked about. Levi Harwood then opened a work-box and took 2s. from it. We then all three of us went into the sitting-room, and Levi Harwood and Jones searched while I held the candle, and there found a silver hunting-watch and a small old•fashioned gold one. We then went into another room, and I don't know what was taken from there. They then went down into the pantry while I stood in the passage. It was then about half past two o'clock. I then went out and fetched Samuel Harwood in. Three of us then went upstairs—my self, Jones, and Levi Harwood went into a bedroom and removed three ladies' dresses—two out of the drawers and one from the bedstead. There was no one sleeping in that bedroom. We then came down stairs and put on the masks. Myself and Jones put on the green ones which were produced last Saturday, and Levi Harwood put on a white one, and a white Guernsey over his wgistcoat. Jones put on a large cloak which was hanging in the passage, and I put on one likewise. The cloaks belonged to the house. We then all four of us proceeded up stairs. Jones went first with a pistol in his right hand, Levi Har wood second, with a pistol in his right hand, which he loaded on the road to Frimley. lie loaded both pistols with marbles. Jones first, Levi Harwood second, and myself third, here entered Mr. Hollest's room, while Samuel Harwood stood at the door with a screw-driver in his hand. Levi Harwood then said, Lay still, my good woman, or else I will blow your brains out.' Ile was standing at the foot of the bed at this time. Mrs. holiest instantly got from her lird, and Jones being on her side of the bed, Levi Har wood at the foot of the bed, and myself against Mr. Hollest's side of the bed, when Mrs. Holiest got out of the bed, Jones took hold of her and thrust her up in the corner of the room on her own side of the bed. Mr. Holiest jumped out of bed and tried to lay hold of Levi Harwood, when he (Levi Harwood) imme diately fired the pistol at Mr. Holiest, and I took the gold watch from off the stand in the room, and we all four then ran down stairs. 'We were in the room for about five minutes. Jones and Samuel Harwood then started for Guildford. After we had walked together across the common about five miles Levi Har wood and myself then parted from them, and we went to Kingston together. There I left him to go to London, he having the things with him that had been taken from Mr. Holiest's, and I returned to Guildford. We arranged on the Tuesday previous to commit the robbery. On the Friday evening Samuel Harwood and Levi Harwood went first, and myself and Jones met them on the top of the hill, about two miles from Frimley. It was then about nine o'clock, and there the pistols were loaded by Levi Harwood. We all four went on to the canal bridge and there parted. Levi liar wood and Jones went first, and my self and Samuel Harwood followed them in about five minutes, and then joined them on the green near Mr. Hollest's house." As soon as Mr. Makep'ece had concluded reading the document, Levi Harwood, in a half-stifled voice, exclaimed, "It's all false—what he's said is all false." The Chairman (to the prisoners)—l think you had better consider well all of you before you make any further observations. Those of you who wish to have a legal adviser will be allowed •to see such a person. Levi Harwood—l should like to have a lawyer my self. I suppose we can see our friends now. The Chairman—That must be regulated by cir cumstances. You will be allowed to see any person you may wish to consult as a legal adviser, but none other at present. The prisoner Smith here asked inquiringly, " Am I to be locked up again, sir ?" The Chairman—Yes, certainly. But pray under stand that the statement you have made is at present strong evidence against yourself. This reply appeared to take Smith by surprise. The Chairman then announced that the proceedings would be formally adjourned until Saturday next. The prisoners were then led out of the room. As Jones was in the act of turning round he looked towards Smith and called out menacingly, " I hope you will be shot yourself some day for making such false statements." Levi Harwood contented himself by whining out, " It is all false ;" and Samuel Har wood said nothing. The prisoners have been su pplied withfoo d up to the present time by their friends. Since Smith made h the enow disclosures onlygets the however prihs prison allowance. supplies have ceased, end BATFT, FRlDAY.—Considerable sensation was occa sioned in this city yesterday evening by a report that Mr. and Mrs. Coplestone, landlord and landlady of the Queen-square Tavern, better known as the Horse and Jockey, Barton-street, had been cruelly mur dered by a man who had, during the last month, been residing at their house. On going to the house we found, although the sight was a sorry one, that death had not deprived either of the parties of their exist ence. From the statements which were then made, we learnt that the bloodthirsty miscreant at tempted to leave the house of his host about half-past five o'clock, without defraying the debt which he had accumulated during his stay there. Mr. Coplestone, hearing him coming down stairs, instantly emerged from the bar, and met him, carpet bag in hand, about to make his exit from the premises. A demand was at once made by the landlord for the money owing, which was disputed by the lodger, and after a few words a scuffle ensued, in the course of which Mr. Coplestone was seriously cut and hacked over the head and face with a sharp cutting instrument, and in a short time, from loss of blood, he sunk to the ground. His wife, who was attracted to the spot by the noise, seeing the state her husband was in, immediately went to his assistance, when she was treated in a similar manner by the savage brute. A razor was afterwards found lying near the spot completely covered with blood, and was recognized as the property of the lodger. Although this horrible scene was enacted withi❑ view from the street door, yet, such is the quiet locality in which the house stands, that the fellow was enabled to walk deliberately away, without any apparent moles• tation. A lad, however, seeing the terror in which the man was, and also having procured a glimpse of the interior of the house, the passage of which was streaming with blood, was induced to follow him After walking as far as Ansley's stables, the fellow made a halt, and immediately retraced his steps in the direction of the scene he had just left, but was taken into custody on the weighing-engine. At the station-house he gave his name as Ogle Wallis, and described himself as having been an officer in the 12th Dragoons, now Hussars. From papers which were found in his carpet-bag, it would seem that he is a gentleman, and in 1848 resided in King-street Covent-garden. In that year he became possessed of upwards of 4,0001. left him by the decease of a sister. The prisoner is about five feet nine inches in height, fifty-seven years of age, and of a robust military appearance. His dress denoted anything but prosperity, and his un shaven dirty face gave him more the appearance of a foreigner than an Englishman. Mr. Coplestone was removed to the hospital upon a stretcher, and his wounds immediately dressed. The injuries inflicted, besides a few minor cuts, were upon one side of the head, reaching from the crown down to the back of the ear, one wound being about six inches in length ; the left cheek left quite open ; the thumb of one of the hands cut very deep between the lower joint and the forefinger, and the forefinger of the same hand nearly severed at the top joint. Mrs. Coplestone was fortunately less wounded than her husband, her inju ries consisting of a cut on the forehead and cheek. The forefinger of the right hand was also lacerated. Mr. Gore, of Queen-square, promptly attended, and, having ordered the husband to be taken to the hos pital, proceeded to dress the wounds of the wife, as sisted by Mr. 'William Bush, of Gay-street. This morning the market-place was crowded with anxious gazers long before the time arrived at which the magistrates assemble. The magistrates' room was also filled by many respectable inhabitants. The prisoner was placed at the bar, and during the exami nation exhibited a total indifference to the awkward position in which his brutal and cowardly conduct had placed him. Mr. Coplestone was too weak to attend. Mary Ann Coplestone, wife of the unfortunate landlord, was the first witness examined. She de posed : The prisoner at the bar has been lodging at my house about three weeks. Yesterday afternoon he came in about half-past four o'clock, and abused my husband very much. I was up stairs at the time, and my husband called me down. The prisoner then went up stairs to his bedroom, where he remained about ten minutes. When he came down my hus band went out and met him on the stairs. I was close by. My husband said to him that he should not leave the house without paying what he owed. The prisoner had his portmanteau in his hand, and also a walking •stick. As soon as my husband told him that he should not go until he had settled, he struck him with the stick. He then took a razor which he held in his hand, and commenced cutting my husband about the head, face, and hands. My husband then called me to his assistance, and said, " Missus, he has killed me—he has murdered me." The blood was flying all over the place. I then went to the assistance of my husband, and the prisoner struck me with his stick first, and then cut me over the face with the razor. The cuts and blows were done instantly, and apparently with the same hand. He did not speak at all during the fray. [The cuts upon the witness's face appeared very extensive, and ber features were hardly to be recognised from the large strips of black plaster viith which they were co vered.] Mr. Gore, surgeon, was then examined. He de posed: I was sent for last night, about five o'clock, to the' house of Mr. Coplestone, in Barton-street. I found him severely wounded on the head, face., and hands. The wounds appeared to have been inflicted with some sharp instrument. He was very faint from loss of blood, and I had him removed to the Bath United Hospital. This mornil.g I saw him. He is doing wall. There is no immediate danger. Toe prisoner was then remanded until this day week. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. GREAT NORTHERN.—This company's branch line from ilitchin to Royston, about 13 miles in length, will be opened for public traffic on Monday next. It is intended to run three trains each way on week days, and one train each way on Sundays, between London and Royston. The remaining distance from Royston to Cambridge, about 14 miles, will be per formed by coaches, running in connexion with the trains. There will, therefore, be some competition with the Eastern Counties Company for the Cam bridge traffic, which will have the effect of increasing the receipts of the Great Northern Company, and pro • bably to some extent decreasing those of toe Eastern Counties Company. GLASGOW, DUMFRIES, AND CARLISLE.—It is ex pected that the remaining portion of this line will be opened to Carlisle for public traffic early next week. The Government officer is to inspect it to-day. Oa the opening of this line fur public traffic, the amalga mation of this company, with the GlasgOw, Paisley, and Ayr Company will be completed, and the united companies will in future assume the name of the Glas gow and South-Western Company. It is believed that the opening of the above line fur traffic will have the effect of reducing to some extent the traffic on the Caledonian Railway, by competing with it for the through traffic between Carlisle and Glasgow. NORTH-WESTERN ♦ND SOUTH-WESTERN JUNC.. TION.—A public meeting of the inhabitants of South ampton was held at the Town-hall on Thursday, the Mayor presiding, to take into consideration a pro. jetted line of railway, 31 miles in length, intended to connect the London and South-Western Railway at Brentford with the London and North-Western Railway at Willesden, thus effecting a junction of nearly the whole of the narrow gauge lines, and opening to Southampton an unbroken chain of com munication with all the manufacturing, producing, and mineral parts of the country. Resolutions were passed supporting the objects of the promoters of this enterprise, which, it is asserted, can be carried out at the trifling cost of 50,000/. The construction of the proposed railway, it was stated, would lessen very materially the high rates of conveyance at present charged upon goods for export from the manufactur ing districts, by doing away with the necessity of merchandise being sent through London, where, on its transit from one railway terminus to another, heavy charges for cartage, lighterage, &c., are now necessarily incurred. THE SOUTH-EASTMAN RAILWAY TERMINUS.— A large number of workmen are now engaged in constructing this company's railway station at Lon don-bridge, for the better accommodation of their Kentish and continental traffic. It consists of a large covered-in platform, between 700 and 800 feet in length, by between 100 and 200 in breadth. The truss principals supporting the roof are 100 feet span. There will be waiting-rooms, booking• offices, managers' and secretaries' department, and in two months the structure will bo completed. [ADVERTISEMENT.] MESSRS. HARDING and Co., 81, Pall-mall, beg to intimate to the public that, in consequence of the rebuilding of their premises, it has become imperative on them to dispose of the whole of their valuable Steck, which they , have determined to offer for immediate Sale, at a very con siderable reduction of price. Messrs. 11. and Co. offer to tbs public the assurance that the Sale thus announced is bona fide.

The Sale commenced yesterday, the 10th October, to be continued for a limited period. FIRE AT TRANENT.--OR Tuesday m orning, about five o'clock, a fire was discovered in a stable and outhouses belonging to Mr. Pendrich, High-street, Tranent. A mes senger was immediately sent on horseback to Musselburgh for the fire-engine stationed there, which speedily arrived with the fire -brigade, under •• the superintendence of Mr. Smith, surveyor, whose exertions soon got it under, there being a plentiful supply of water at hand. The fire is said to have originated from carelessness on the part of a boy leaving a candle near the wall. By the well-directed exertions of Mr. Smith and the men under him, all the live stock was saved excepting a fine horse and about three dozen of poultry. A quantity of harness and stabla-furniture was also deatroyed. 1 ;.4 . ‘ ; •,. . _ . of I, boll'. ell o ven se re loo► o f ctiC e 72 l ive° It ° Con . dna W per iftb ° ' P. t oCer 0. 4), ,011 V °Ti 1 11°- held gists If. °i.
