This Lac will branch from the Greenwich Railway about one mile cast of London-bridge, and after crossing the Kent-road, will pas 3 thr.aigh Camberwell and Brixton to Clapham. From Clapham it is intended to continue the Hue - through Tooting to Mit,liam ; and power will also be obtained to carry a branch tram a NMt on the main line between Camberwell and Brixton to Norwood aid _Dulwich ; and another from Clapham to the South- Western ltalway. This latter branch will be little more than a mile lon,r, awl will gice a City terminus to the South-Western Railway, the i.nportan.:e of which to the public and the shareholders of that line can scarcely be.exaggerated. Thee who are acquainted with the country to be traversed by this railway witiluow, and a glance at the map will show to others, that this is the oily way by which the densely populated districts of Cambc:rwci!, Brixton, and Clapham can be thrnished with adequate rail way ac;,ommodatloa. Tii line proposed, besides being almost straight, has the advan tage of being so nearly level as not to offer a single engineering diffi culty ; and, as very few buildings will be interfered with, the cost or the line will be moderate in comparison with other metropo litan Railways, and small with reference to the immense traffic which must pa-s over it. Th . .! Norwood and Dulwich branch may probably be worked by a single line of rails, especially if the atmospheric system of traction be adopted. _ . . _ . The principal s‘alions will ba in the Kent-road (dose to New Peck ham), at Camberwell (near the green), at Brixton (near the church), and at ClAphani (near the common). Passmp rs will save two-thirds of the time now spent in the coacle, less fares will be charged ; and as experience has shown that the icest l:equent naming of trains on short lines produces the largest amol:nt of profit, the public are likely to be well served iu that res;:cet The great superiority of the London-bridge terminus for the dis tricts through which this line will pass, will be readily perceived, when it is known that nearly the entire populations of those districts arc engaged in commercial pursuit.% and that their places of business are :mostly situate east of the Rank; and it is supposed that the Dire:dr:vs of the South Western Railway will eagerly adopt the faci lity whi;:lt this line will offer for the conveyance of their passengers to Lordoli-tridge. The pro , pectus, plan, and other details, win be published in a few days, and in the meantime communications may be addressed to the Soli,tiGrs, at the temporary offices, 82, High-street, Southwark. 4th o..tober, 1845. 7AID L AND BARNSLEY, SHEFFIELD, .17,1_ DEWSBURY, LEEDS, AND BRADFORD RAILWAY. .

Mornin .. 33 minutes after 8 Evening .. 19 minutes after 9 was done on the Bourse. The Three per Cents. were quoted outside at 32. The principal articles in the Paris papers still relate to the disasters in Africa. The Opposition journals continue the fire against M. GUIZOT and the English Govern ment, and again repeat that all the mischief has arisen from base complaisance :to England. We find really nothing new in these angry and unfair discussions. England could in no way be to blame for the treaty of Tan giers. The French Government and the Emperor of Mo- Rocco had a quarrel about the line of boundary—the affair was. settled, and what more could the Opposition journals require? They could not compel Were ABDEnnmearaer to perform an impossibility, or expect that he would go to war with ABD-EL-KADER, for the sake of the French. He has no wish to harbour him in his dominions, hat there are certain districts near the frontier, which are still reckoned byAnD EL-KADER debateable ground ; they are not completely, nor anything like it, under the control of Morocco, and what blame then can be attached to, the EMPEROR We have already given a specimen of the arguments used by the Republican and Radical journals, and we now furnish one flora a different quarter, the organ of the Bourbon dynasty, which joins heat tit) with its sworn enemies in attacking the Government of Louis Prinarrn. "If the plan of the Aurnc:l (It's Debuts," says the Quotiditnne, "be executed MARSHAL BEGEAtin will not have to make a simple expedi tion, but a campaign, and perhaps more than one. No pru dent man would undertake to promise that ABD-EL-KADER can be attacked in the mountains of the Rif before the rainy season. According to all appearances it• will be neces:ary to recommence next spring, and perhaps with new reinforce ments, what LI about to he tried this autumn. It is besides permitted to us to predict that the war will be complicated by a revolution in Morocco. The mountaineers of the eastern parts of the em pire do not love ABDERRNAMAN, neither do they fear him, and they revere ABD-EL-KADER as a saint. We say this merely fir the purpose of describing the real position of atfairs. The enterprise in which, according to the Debuts, the Mi nistry is about to plunge is precisely that which was inter rupted after the victory of lsly by the treaty of Tangiers. Thus are verified the predictions of all the writers of the in dependent press, and of all the sensible speakers in Parlia ment during the last session. They said to M. GurzoT, What you have not accomplished this year you will be forced to do next year. Your treaty is only a procrastination without dignity, for it leaves things just as they were.' And was not this the truth ? Are not this sudden invasion of the territory of Algeria by Ann-EL KADER, this deplorable mas sacre otDjerna Ghazaouat, this insurrection of the Flittas, this hasty embarkation of 12,000 troops for the province of Oran, a positive condemnation of the treaty of Tangiers ? It is now pretty evident that the treaty was imposed by exac tions, and accepted upon calculations the responsibility of which the country indignantly repudiates. We do not ac cuse the Ministry of ignorance, but of cowardice ; of its base complaisance for the English, and its insolent contempt of the honour and interests of France." _ _ _ Some of the papers publish a long letter, dated Oran, Sept. 29, but it relates chiefly to the rositmn of ..413D.EL-KADEr., and the forces under his command, which, according to their account, are anything but formidable. It is stated in the letter, that the Emperor of MOROCCO was organising an army of regular troops, with the intention of marching to the frontier, in order to subdue the adherents of ABD-EL-KADER in that quarter. We subjoin miscellaneous extracts from the papers: Louis Philippe reviewed on Wednesday morning, in the Cour des Tuileries, several regiments of the line that were leaving Paris for other garrisons. "The Empress of Russia arrived at Milan on the Ist inst., on her way from the Lake of Como to Genoa. " M. Ronge performed divine service in thechurch of the Ger man Catholic Dissenters at Frankfort, on the 4th. The day be fore he preached in the open air, at Offenbach, to a congregation of more than 15,000 persons. " The consumption of butchers' meat in Paris, in September last, was 5,939 oxen, 2,253 cows. 6,658 calves, and 37,303 sheep. As compared with the consumption during the corresponding month of 1844, there was an increase in 1845 of 180 oxen, 676 cows, 897 calves, and 2,596 sheep. " A lighthouse is to be raised on the coast of Fatouville, near the mouth of the Seine, in place of the wooden one now existing. It is to be 96 metres above the highest cquinoct:al tides. The cost will be 145,000 f. " It is stated iN a letter from Berlin, that the King and Queen of Prussia will be the sponsors of the son of the Prince Royal of Hanover.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was rather quiet again, and Railway Shares were not very brisk. The proceedings in the Court of Common Council yester day relative to the formation of a general central termini in the City of London has been a subject of much conversation in the City to-day. The petitions presented on behalf of the Direct Manchester Railway Committee to purchase the new Farringdon Market and one from the London and Birming ham Railway Company to buy the site of the Fleet Prison for a similar object, were read with much inte rest by the mercantile classes, and a very earnest desire is expressed that either one or both projects may be carried into effect. No person interested in trade is there to be found who has travelled by the Great Western, the Birmingham, or the South-Western lines, who does not com plain of the time taken to reach, or return, from the several stations of those railways. To parties who travel on trips of pleasure, too, a great degree of annoyance is felt, lifer a rapid journey by rail, to find s 6 long a period required to reach the City, or to depart for the country, and therefore on all hands it is requisite that a central termini should be as early as possible formed. The site of Farringdon Market (which as a place of business has proved a total failure, or very neerly so) is con idered very eligible, and the present structure might be re-modelled, so as in a great degree to suit the purposes for which it is required. There are no arrivals of importance in the City to-day. The Consol market has been very firm this morning. For the Account there have been but one or two transactions, at 98 1 / 1. , and for immediate transfer 98% and %. The premium on Exchequer-bills has been quoted at 48s. 500.

Another great repeal meeting took place in Ireland on Monday. The scene was on the banks of the Lake of Kil larney, celebrated for its magnificent scenery, and the assemblage was said to amount to at least fifty thousand persons. The day was fine. Mr. O'CONNELL met, as usual, with the warmest reception from his grateful and kind hearted countrymen, and, with one exception, the cause 'of repeal was triumphant. Mr. MAHONEY, a gentleman of the county of Kerry, of an ancient and honourable family and independent fortune, came forward on the occasion, and, with a rare boldness, ventured to dispute with the Liberator the blessings anticipated from a repeal of the union, and his remarks contained so much truth, good sense, and sound discretion, that we would willingly give them at length, but for' want of room. The substance, however, may be briefly stated, for truth requires no circumlocution. He came to the meeting according to his statement to pay every respect to the Liberator of his country, because, though differ • ing from him on the subject of repeal, he entertained fur him - the highest regard, and believed him fully determined to promote the welfare of his country. With the exception of perhaps a few bigoted Orangemen, this is the universal feel ing in Ireland, and as a proof t hat it is merited, Mr. O'CONNELL'S fame is not a thing of yesterday—it has stood the test of thirty years—from his entrance into public life to the present moment it has gone on increasing, and he has now more influence in Ireland than any one individual ever had in his native country. Popularity without some firm base to rest upon could not have lasted for a tenth part of the period; it would have been scattered in the breeze, and some new idol would have sprung up for the worship of the Irish nation. But the great work of emancipation, the reform of the con stituency and the borough corporations, the improvement of the administration of justice, and, above all, his successful exertions to rouse Irishmen to a just sense of their rights, and to place them en equal terms with Scotcbmen and English men, are national blessings of inestimable price, and justly merit for Mr. O'CONNELL the title of Ireland's best friend. His repeal mania we hays ever denounced not only as hope less but mischievous, and we excuse him for his obstinate per severance in a wroe.g coarse on the ground that he believes it useful to frighten the Anti-Irish party in Great Britain, rather than that he has the most remote hope that it would ever be possible or beneficial to his country. The con fusion and the collision between the two countries which would ensue from separation, have often been pointed out, but never in more brief or more cogent terms than those used by Mr. MAHONEY. " The Liberator," said he, " had often argued that the golden link of the Crown should be preserved at all times; but he thought that the complicated relation which existed between both countries required more than that. That golden link would no doubt be preserved by the existence of the King, or Queen, or Regent, a Consul, or an Emperor; but the most important duties of the State were to be discharged by an Irish Parlia ment, and in doing so he had no doubt but that it would come to blows with the English Legislature. Mr. Pyre had foreseen that, and directed all hie energies to bring about the union; In all their political movements it was necessary they should take such steps that it should not be deemed ne ceseary to recede ; but in the e present instance he thought that such would be the case, and that considerable mischief would be the consequence. He maintained that a repeal of the union would bring about a collision between the two countries, until the terms of the compact were previously are r anged, and he looked in vain in any of the s s eeches i n 'Con ciliation Hall or elsewhere for any plan in which ouch terms were proposed." Now here was an opportunity for Mr. O'CONNELL to defend his position, and he tried, but mi serable was the failure. He excited the good. natured au dience to laughter by some witticisms about Balaam's ass, taking a Coil to market to sell, and by asserting that the ' voice of Ireland could not be heard, for England had all the ' settlements to herself, "lock, stock, and handle," and wound up these by calling upon his o pp o nent to become a goad re. peeler, and "join with him in havins,e Ireland for the Irish as well as Scotland for.the Scoteh, and England fur the English." Was ever speaker driven to such shifts as ? Why, the whole of Scotland would rise as one man against any Government that would now attempt to touch the union. The time was, when like the Irish, they were ignorant of its blessings; when they would have fought for repeal if they could have obtained a leader of ability to conduct them, and when the question *as all but carried in the British Parliament. Every Scotchman looks back on that happy escape like a man saved from a fatal precipice by a miracle. The union of the two nations has been beneficial to both ; they carry on as brethren the same trade at home as well as abroad, and the poorer country enjoys all the advan tages of colonial connexion, which, but for the union, would have been possessed by England alone. The period too is not far distant when Irishmen will be equally conscious of the advantages held out to her by union with England. All that is wanted is good government on the part of the more power ful country, and that is making rapid progress; but the ills of Ireland cannot lie cured in a day. The Legislature —a Tory Legislature too—is convinced that Ireland must be sub dued, not as formerly by persecution, by Bills of rains and penalties, and by a large army, but by moderation and justice. We instance the Maynooth Bill, the Charitable Bequests Bill, the Academies' Bill, independent of others, which all show not se much the spirit that animates Sir R. PEEL as the new light which has broken forth upon the old oppressors of Ire:and. Politics aro now in a different position from what they were during the regime of the eaten borough sys tem. The people of England, and Scotland,' and Ireland too, have a voice in the Legislature, and that voice will be raised 1 in behalf of the sister c ,untry till she is placed on an equal footing with her more wealthy neighbour. We have received Madrid journals of the 2d inst. The trial of CORTINA, MAnoz, and others, was still going on, but the interest in the affair had much abated, as an acquittal was fully anticipated. Accounts from Malaga state that two sergeants implicated in the military conspiracy at that place were shot there on the 26th of Sept. Some private transac tions in the Funds took place at Madrid on the 2d, but nothing FLANDERS MAIL. BaussErs, OCT. 7.—The average price of wheat last week was 23f. 62e., and that of rye, 15f. ttic. There was a pretty considerable de cline in the price of potatoes at Brussels the day before yesterday, 300 sacks were offered for sale; the prices varied from 10f. to 13f. of 100 kilog,ranues (2001b5.), which Is 2f. less than i n th e preceding ak t e l d e c t i.i', re gm frt.l et iayence, published by the Rhenish Observer, says that a serious financial crisis prevails at Frankfort at this moment.

Your old friend, Sir John de Beauvoir, takes the field for the ditli time ; and, with the Llessing of God on his and your united exertleas, he hopes to obtain a great and glorious victory I" No other candidate up to this evening has publicly announced himself. The following are spoken of: Colonel Reid, of the 2d Life Guards ; Mr. John Walter, Bear-wood ; C4tain Bulkeley, let Life Guards ; Mr. Jeremiah Pilcher, Southwark ; Mr. East Clayton, one of the sons of Lord Delawarr ; and Mr. J. E. Anson, Frivate Secre tary to Prince Albert. The contest, however, is expected to be be tween Sir Joint de Beauvoir, Mr. Walter, and Colonel Reid, should these g.ntlemen come forward. It is stated that Colonel Reid will have the Government and Castle Interest; and that, under these circumstances, Captain Bulkeley will not offer himself. As, at the last election, itt 1841, Sir John de Beauvoir polled only 130 votes out of a constituency of 642, his chance of being returned is supposed to be very remote.

Mr. COOKE appeared to oppose on behalf of a Mr. Ogle, a solicitor, as creditor on a bill of exchange for 2801., and also as trustee for a Mr. Waites, a creditor to the amount of 1,5001. Mr. LEwis, the insolvent's solicitor, contended that Mr. Ogle was not a creditor, and that as trustee he was not entitled to oppose. _ _ The Learned COMMISSIONER said that he was not prepared to say that he would not admit the opposition of a trustee with a calui que trust. Mr. COOKE said that the real point was to prevent the insolvent getting out of prison under the new Act, for If he succeeded in the pre sent application, it was morally certain that he would not attend again. The Learned Counsel submitted that if he made out a prima facie case, such as would bar the granting a final order then, that no pro tection ought to be granted. Mr. LEWIS urged, on the contrary, that no opposition could be made on the application. _ _ The fe - arned COMMISSIONER said the better way would be to grant the protection. Mr. CooKE urgently pressed that he might prove that the insolvent was not, on the merits of the case, entitled to his protection. The fact was, he had been for a long time living at fashionable hotels, holding himself out as having abundant means, and living in the first style, but without any substantial means of meeting his en,agements. He had been drawing accommodation bills, and renewed ethers which he was uttai4e to - pay. The bills were for 1,0001. and upwards Under the circumstances, he considered there were good grounds to suppose the insolvent premeditated fraud, especially as he had spent a large sum given by his father and mother, without paying off his creditors, except by bills.' Mr. Ogle was examined as to whether he was actually a creditor, and The Learned COMMISSIONER, after reviewing the facts, decided on net granting the protection..

SUGAR.—To-day importers of West India Sugar were for the most part inclined to realise, but submitting to lower rates, and making the decline for the week Gd to is per cwt, occa sioned the demand to be fair. In all 500 were sold to-day, making the total sales for the week 2,250 hhds and tieres.

The market is quiet for bc.nded Crushed Sugar, and :38s Od to 39s per cwt is the rate of first quality. MAURITIUS.—F, r stron refining and bright grocery quali ties, a good demand has existed, and the rates are on a par with those of this day week, but all inferior and brown sorts, of which the supply chiefly consists, have been purchased with caution, and a decline in pi ices of is to 2s has taken place. _ _ FOREIGN.—The market having been sparingly supplied with all descriptions of Foreign Sugar this week, any mate rial decline in pricee has been prevented, but there is o want of demand, and stocks are accumulating. Altho%gii white and brown Brazil may be purchased privately at a furi,ner reduction in prices, still very little business has been trans acted by Exporters or our Refiners working under bond. In other sorts of Foreign there has been very little business transacted, and former rates are not obtainable. MOLASSES.—Prices continue firm for West India, and sales to a fair extent have been made. A strong desire has been shown to purchace Bengal Treacle for present and forward ddlivery, and pikes have advanced to 19s to 20s per cwt.

SPICES. —This afternoon Nutmegs were in excellent re quest, and 14 cases at auction were sold at rather higher rates. Of Mace the supply is on the iucrease—at auction, however, 18 cases were offered, and all sold at the full value.

It appeared, however, in tp- ,10 01 ,iir very short time, that certain of the leading houses had deteV ers ' a farther advance of I/. per ton, thus raising merchant of lr pu nutacturcd iron, from 9/. to IW. Every other descriptieg,ils,er a matter of necessity, a ill proportionally advance, av d „ e st ~ quoted at 11/. to 121.

Greeks and Roman s Ile per'', advantage of printed books ? The answer will be, fr° ° ,, if sot e ',,,t in 100-because the mystery of printing was not then ",,,g , P 0 But this is altogether a mistake. The secret of Pr i , ° ",. have been discovered many thousands of times belai" o l o ";/ used, or could be used. The inventive power' ' if ,p pP) ll :i i .e divine; and also his stupidity is divine-as CowPe r ,:orc e '; illustrates in the slow development of the sofa thronguhiajcbc",4 enerations of immortal dulness. It took centuries Of " 0 00% to raise a joint stool into a chair ; and it reen ded , A ,s ' s like a miracle of genius, in the estimate of e•""i i . itn", n o tions, to reveal the possibility of lengthening 8 eb2. tha t o , chaise longue, or a sofa. Yes, these were ineen ti°l l pra d ' i to mighty throes of iutellectual power. But still as re a r ' 110 eo ns admirable as is the stupidity of man, it was really Indq,- c e %vi t o the task of evading an object which stared him in the •",,, . broad a gaze. It did not require an Athenian intellect ; the °r us main sr etet of printing in many scores of proces ses wid e ( a siddi t , nary uses of life were daily repeating. To say nothing e ° o.eon'.ce at tifices amongst various mechanic artisans, all that i 5 str u p s printing must have been known to every net i°l ,. t a pri nt :De coins and medals. Not, therefore, any ward t ri ,..-- 0 0 .0 art-that is of an art for multiplying impeessemioas, st want of a cheap material for receiving such in 3 P re' a s ear el l or the obstacle to an introduction of printed books cl i p of Pisist talus. The ancients did apply printing to rec ° - testa isle and gold ; to marble and many other substances cheaP er a 0 0 0 ,1 and silver they did not, since each monument req uu ` - „.., 0 le s Le i til effort cf inscription. Simply this defect it was of a et" - ;,se ` - 0 9 for receiving impresses, which froze in its very founta in ,,, af r o, resources of printing.
