' Tan influential MEETING of MERCHANT'S, SHIPOWNEII3, and others, held on MONDAY, Nov. 3. in the Exchange Rooms, Bull, " to receive a deputation from the Lon , ton Merchants' Committee for reform of the Board of Customs ;" Jo J[IN FOSTER, Esq., Chairman of the Chamber of Commerge, in the chi ; the following Resolutions were unanimously agreed to: — Moved by Mr. H. BLUNDELL ; seconded by Mr. T WILSON, 1. That this meeting desires to express its entire concurrene a in the Petition presented to the House of Commons last session, by the Banters, Merchants, and Traders of London, for a reform of the Board of Customs, and its sympathy with the Conunittee of Lon (ton Merchants, for inquiry !Molts constitution and manaeement, wi lii a view to a thorough reform of that board, and its willingness to s actp port and co-operate in that inquiry. Moved by Mr. Tilos. TimarsoN : seconded by Mr. M. T. Kwair. E Y ; 2. That while the Merchants and Traders of this port have 0:e -quently had to c enelain of the obstruction to business, the hard , and even injustice suffered by them from the administration of ithe customs regulations, they have been informed by the subordina tte officers charged with their execution, that they only possess a limited discretion, and were only acting in obedience to the orders of lithe board, or to the requisition of the revenue-laws, while the repre: ,n -tations of Merchants to the Commissioners, and to the Treasury• or Beard of Trade, have been often practically neglected or pore xip torily rejected. Moved by Mr. CROWTIIER HARRISON ; seconded by Mr. W. B. BROWNLOW ; 3. That the repeal of the navigation-laws, the peculiar sire a in stances of the shipping trade of this port, and the competition it ,'dies to sustain not only with foreign shipping but with British r cuts where the shipping is less heavily burdened with local dues, 'are scir cumstancrs which call for immediate and strenuous exertions for the promotion of an early and sweeping reconstruction .of the management of the collection of the customs revenues, and a seal etch ing revision of those laws, with the view of adapting both to the altered circumstances of our commerce and navigation, and the r. t pid changes which free-trade and the railway system have made in the commerce of Europe. Moved by Mr. JOHN MIDDLETON' ; seconded by Mr. H. BLUNDE EL ; 4. That the detective state of the commercial legislation and El a :al arrangements of this the trading emporium of the world, is mil stdered by this meeting as chiefly attributable to the fact that: in the choice of representatives, the mercantile classes have pospo axed the substantial interests of their order to mere party or polit teal objects. That as a commercial omntry can only be adequately governed by legislators practically acquainted with, and Subs tem tally interested in, the business of trade, it is essential that the choice of electors should be guided by a proper regard for the In era risount importance of our trading supremacy ; and that this meet Jug is of opinion that members returned for mercantile constituen cites should be pledged, irrespective of party considerations, to the aulmort only aila4ll4B.66Stirtifi 10 are calculated to.Pramote truth: commerce of this kingdom.

" A complete literary type of the original to which It refers, opening up sources of amusement or instruction to every class of taste, and proving equally at home on the drawing-room table. Inn:fled by fashionable dilettanti in the study, pored over by the scholar or the man of science, at the merchant's desk as a book of constant reference —in the factory, t' tie foundry, and the workshop, as a repertoiro fer designs, and as highly suggestive for future pro gress. A more pleasant work to dive into during an idle hour can hardly he imagined, for wherever it is. taken up there is something new and striking, and worthy of att ention."—Times. " The work is without a preceder it in the annals of literature ; and when we regard tae circumstan rep of difficulty that surrounded the task of its execution, the praise bestowed on those who under took it can searce'y be too great. Tee Contractors, in that enlarged spirit which appears to have entercid into all that belongs to the Exhibition, engaged meu of reputation and authority in every department of science and- manufac tore to contribute such descrip tive notes as should render the work: eminently instructive. It thus contains a body of annotations which express the condition of human knowledge, and the state of th e world's Indust y in 1851 ; and Is a document of the utmost importance, as a summary report of this vast international " stock-taking," wihieh no great library—nor • any gentleman's library; of those who aim at the collection of literary standards—can hereafter:be without. It is hot a work of a day, a month, or a year ; it is for all time. ' Centuries hence it will he re ferred to as authority, on the conditie•n to which man had arrived at the period of its publication. It Is at once a great Trades Directory, informing us where we are to seek ferr any particular kind of manu facture—a Natural 'HiStory, recording the localities of almost every variety of native production--and a Cyclopredia, describing how far science has ministered to the necessities of humanity, by what efforts the Crude products of The earth have been converted into articles of utility or made the medium of that refined expression which belongs to the province of creative art. The Exhibition has lived its allotted time, and died ; but this Catalogue is the snin of the thoughts and truths' to which it has given birth—and which form the intellectual ground whereon the generations that we are not to see must build. . . . . . It will be evident from what has been already stated that a more important contribution to a commercial country than the Official Descriptive and Illustrated Catalogue of the Great Exhibition' could scarcely have been offered.. . . All possible means have been taken to render it worthy of the wonder ful gathering of which it is the permanent record,"—Athenxutn. 44* This Work is also published in Five Parts : Parts 1 and 2, price 10s. each, and Parts 3,4, and 5, price 15e, each.

Admission—ONE SI3 TESTIMONIAL 0 KOSSUTH. Where there is a difference of csi pinion as to the amount of credit or discredit due to a public man, there is a great difficulty, if not an utter impossibility of proposing anything acceptable to all in the case of Kossuth. Many people thin him a hero and a martyr ; others fancy he is an enemy to monarct ty. One party wishes him at Copenhagen-fields, that they might see and hear him ; others wish him at the North Pole, that they might see and hear no more of him. What a striking difference'in the fate of men. What a wonderful odds between people who have one half the world loving and another half hating them, and people who ha` e everybody in their favour. This may, however, be for substantial 1 benefits conferred, as in the case of E. MOMS and SON, who for t he last twenty or thirty years have been saving the public half their a xpenses in dress. And how did they do this ? by investing an enon mous capital, by incurring a great risk, by trying a great expo riment. As, however, they founded their proceedings on the hope hat the people at large would see their own interest, and deal • where they were best used, they have not been disappointed. Hoe r should they be ? Every man who buys an article pays but half the ar am he has been used to before he dealt with them, and found he had a better article. Let any one go and look at the Winter Dresses, the Over-coats, Cloaks, and extra-warm Clothing, and he will ss ee such a contrast in the style and workmanship to any he has seen e lsewhere, that he cannot hut try them, and once trying is enough. Hundreds of new customers come daily, but none were ever known. to have gone elsewhere after a trial. E.

Furthermore, an additional white buoy has been laid down in the Wurster Clannel, op posite to Bremen, in this river.' " HELIGOLAND, OCT. 29.—The Eiche, from Newcastle for Hamburgh, was in contact with a cutter six miles west of this island last evening, and received so much damage that she was abandoned by the crew, being in a sinking state.

Shortly before the com mencement of the gale yesterday an English collier brig, bound for the Elbe, took the assistance of six pilots from this place, and much anxiety is felt for the Piety of the vessel.

FRANKLIN'S POLAR EXPEDITION. FROM AN OCCASIONAL CORRESPONDENT . ) A fresh effort is about to be made in a region hitherto untried to discover traces of this long missing expedition. From the remains found at Cape Riley it is now pretty generally inferred that the exploring vessels passed through Wellington Straits, beyond which and to the north of the Parry Islands it is thought by many geographers and navigators that they would meet with a more open or " Polar" Sea. It is also believed that Franklin himself bad resolved to endeavour to reach the longitude of Behring's Strait by sailing westwards in such Polar Sea. On these data Lieut. Pirn, a zealous and able officer, who has served on board her Majesty's surveying-ship Herald, Captain Kellett, in Behring's Strait, has formed the following plan of research : He conceives that when Franklin reached the longitude of Behring's Strait he would be foiled in all his efforts to get southwards through the one only passage from meeting with a great east and west barrier of ice and land on, and that consequently he may have struggled along its northern shore further to the west, until he became inextricably entangled in a region which, though entirely devoid of human beings, is supposed to abound in animals on which the navigators could subsist. Lieutenant Pim has, in consequence, suggested the following bold plan of research :—He purposes to leave London on the 18th of November for St. Petersburgh, whence, if the project should meet wit h the approbation of the Imperial authorities, he wishes to travel directly across Siberia to the mouth of the river Kolyma. Thence, accompanied by two or three persons only, he will proceed either to the islands of New Siberia and others visited by Wran g el and An j ou, or in the iin those Samoydes, who roam farthest parallels of longi tude,whatever other direction he ma y be led b y the infor mation towardsol at obtained the north dfr om there occupying himself in a thorou g h surve y during two or more year s. This arduous project has met with the approbation of many geographers, and is warmly advocated by Lady Franklin; whilst, in order to facilitate its suc cess, the President of.the Royal Geographical Society, Sir Roderick Murchison, has written urgent letters to the chief authorities at St. Petersburgh. Our own Government has also offered every assistance to the ilitrePid voyager. Lieutenant ,Pim will give a full explanation of his project this evening at the first meeting of the Royal Geographical Society: —Times., SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. DAILY NEWS.—The words Republic and Re publican are employed in the present discussion and manifestation throughout continental Europe in two vary different senses. In one signification it implies a hatred, amounting to a horror, of existing princes, d of all those who have broken feith with the people. These absolute Sovereigns have all by wretched go• :ernment forced their people to look for a remedy in a constitutional reform; at the first outbreak they have consented to their people's demands, sanctioned them, and swore to them. And thus having first toread their people to become constitutionelists, then approved of their being so, and joined even as far as Use moat solemn oaths in the establishment of such eovernments, they have turned round, brought in the military, overthrown the constitutions, shot, hanged, mod prosecuted all those who abetted them. From Yeples to Copenhagen this is the story of every Court in Europe. And the mere filets are sufficient to make every man of heart and feeling a Republican. And such a school of republicanism as this has not only taken root in Hungary and in Italy, but has spread through Germany and the whole of Central Europe with a rapidity and general accord, that may, in truth give some colour to that general conspiracy which Louis Napoleon denounces in his Message, but which ries none of the attributes of conspiracy, being neither secret nor confined to a few, but professed openly by all the world except by the functionaries and the de pendents of the several Governments. To this almost universal republicanism of sentiment prevailing throughout Europe must be added the republicanism of action ; that is, the general conviction amongst capable and eminent men that the great resistance to absolutism, and its final overthrow,: can only be achieved by a great popular movement, by a rising of the people under their own leaders, and not under the guidance of either princes or aristocracies. All know that the last movement in North Italy, and, indeed, in all Italy, was given up to the guidance of the mo narchic, the aristocratic, the moderate constitutional party in each state. Although this latter is the party to which we ourselves feel most attached, we cannot but admit that it failed in Lombardy, failed in Rome, failed in Prussia ; and that the only brave resistance was made by the democratic principle and move. went. There was more political sense, and more military talent in the defence of Rome, than in the entire campaign of Lombardy. We must not be sur prised, then, if, after the experience of 1848 and 1849, all those men, who look to the rescue of Europe from absolutism and soldier law, seek it no longer in a con stitutional struggle or in civic resistance, but in a wide, large, thorough democratic movement. Such ere now the opinions of all continental liberals, and such are the convictions of Mazzini and Kossuth: We must confess ourselves unable to gainsay those argu ments, upon which their convictions are founded—un able to deny the facts or to question the necessity ; and yet we must repudiate the name, if it be reproached to us, of being republican. For however admitting the justice of that sentiment in the soldier-ridden and s n l e s C ta es n s c l e ty , w of e recurrings tilleo s t sc o eos t ns h si e ni dg m e raasbs theel e s e f l o de r omu n eb : soldier-devoured countries o f E urope , as we ll as t h e doubts elements s o n asrequisite - for the establishment and working of a republic. When we behold France, certainly the foremost of all those countries in civilisation and enlightenment— when we behold the French literally incapable of making a fit choice of a president of their republic, and this from the utter ignorance and incapacity of the masses, as well as f rom th e se lfi sh and petty views and rivalry of men in the upper classes of society—when we see this in France, we cannot but despair of Italians, or Germans, or Hun garians succeeding in any essay of republican ;go vernment. We entertain infinite admiration for Kos suth, and considerable respect for Mazzini ; and we do not say but that both may be right in employing the democratic lever to throw off the incubi that weigh on both their countries, but we must say that we totally disbelieve in the power or ability of either to found a Hungarian or an Italian Republic. Kossuth, indeed, is not wedded to the necessity of a republic. When in Hungary he would have accepted from Europe any constitutional Sovereign that the liberal powers of Europe might have recommended. All he desired to be rid of was the incurable despotism of the Hapsburgs. Mazzini is more puritan in his repub licanism. He scouts the house of Savoy, constitutional as its proves itself to be, quite as much as the house of Hapsburg. And Mazzini in this opinion is decidedly wrong and monstrously unjust. The greatest misfortune that can Wall any coun try, is the disruption of all ties and all sympathy be tween the middle and the working classes. The mere existence of such a schism is either a raging civil war, or a state of things which is no better than civil war. France at this moment offers the example of a complete schism between the middle and work ing classes, that schism being kept from breaking into civil war by the neutrality of the soldiery; 1792 offers an example of the same schism, overawed by no army and by no authority. There is no one evil that should so carefully be avoided by politicians, whether Conservatives or Reformers, as this the greatest of all. And when we see men like Mazzini, or like the Red men of France, seeking to base their power exclusively upon the lower classes, not in con junction with, but in opposition to, the class of in dustrious middle men of society, we dread the ten dency of these proceedings and this policy, as almost certain to lead to the extreme of democracy in th e first instance, and after no great lapse of time, to that other extreme, which is antagonistic and de structive, not merely of democracy; but of all liberty and of all progress. OPENING OF THE SUBMARINE TELE GRAPH. On Saturday the following important and interest ing report was presented to the directors of the Sub marine Telegraph Company : " Gentlemen,—ln compliance with your request we beg to submit the following report of the state of the works of the submarine telegraph. "Four protected wires have been laid down be tween the South Foreland, on the English coast, and the village of Sangatte, about four miles from Calais, on the French coast. The land communication on each side of the channel connecting Sangatte with Calais on the one hand, and the South Foreland with Dover on the other, will be completed on Tuesday next, the 11th inst. " Some delay has of necessity occured in con structing the works on the English coast, arising from the question of arrangement and compensation with the different proprietors through whose lands the wires have been carried. " These arrangements are now made upon fair and equitable terms, and the telegraph will be brought into a station on the east side of the town of Dover. " We have very great pleasure in stating to you that nothing can be more perfect than the insulation of the submarine wires, and we must here beg to re cord our opinion of the excellent manner in which these wires were cased with gutta percha, under the direction of Mr. Statham, the manager of the Gutta Percha Company. " Since the telegraphic wires were submerged in the Channel last month they have been tested by daily experiments, and notwithstanding the prevalence of the equinoctial gales, and the unusual strength of the tides, nothing has occurred to disturb either their insulation or position on the two shores. "We can, therefore, with confidence recommend that the telegraph be opened for the public transmis eion of messages on Thursday next, the 13th inst. "During the progress of these works the French and English Governments have not only expressed themselves anxious for the success of the undertaking, but have in the most liberal manner placed s teamers of their respective navies at the disposal of the com pany. " We wish to take this opportunity of most respect fully offering our best thanks to Captain Bullock and the officers of her Majesty's steamer Fearless, as well as Captain Arpin and the officers of the French steamer Ariel, for their cordial co-operation, and the many kind acts we have received at their hands. "To Captain Bullock and Lieutenant Burstill we are especially indebted for much valuable assistance and advice in the actual work of laying down the telegraph. " Indeed, it has been our good fortune in every quarter to meet with kindness and aid in carrying out what may be justly termed a work of great im portance to our own nation, and the Continent in general.

LIFE BOAT AT PORT MADOC.—A public meeting was recently held at the Town• hall, Port Madoc, Samuel Holland, Esq., in the chair, for the purpose of establishing a life boat for the bay, in connexion with the Shipwrecked Fishermen and Mariners' Royal Benevolent Society. The leading gentlemen of the neighbourhood took part in the proceedings, and a committee was appointed.—North Wales Chronicle, CITY IMPROVEMENTS. On Saturday evening, upon the return of the Lord Mayor after having been sworn into office, a deputa tion, consisting of Sir James Duke, Alderman Hooper, Alderman Humphrey, Alderman 'Wire, Deputy Har rison, Mr. Waterlow, Mr. Dakin, and other members of the Gl:ninon Council, waited upon his Lordship to present a requisition jo him to call an early Court of Common Council, to consider the propriety of taking into their canskleration a most important improve ment of the metropolis, particularly of the city of London: Mr. Deputy HannisoN, who beaded the requisition ists, said the document had been signed in six days by upwards of 150 members of the court, including a majority of each of the three classes, aldermen, depu ties, and other commoners. It was a requisition quite unprecedented in the number of signatures, and demonstrated the strong conviction of the Court of the magnitude and importance of the object Mr. Pear son had in contemplation, and their sens e o f th e ne cessity of having it fully examined. The Loan Maxon said he should at all times deem it his duty to concede to the wishes of the Co Council in convening courts upon all subjects affec. ing the welfare of the City which they might think it necessary to discuss. He wished it to be distinctly understood that he should not require a requisition so numerously signed to induce him to call a court ; but when a requisition came recommended by so large a body of the members, and by the presence of so nu merous and influential a deputation, he should at once say that, without inquiring into the object of the court, he would grant it on any day that might be mast convenient.—(Hear, hear.) If it were desired to be convened during the week the 'aotirt . talter/W held within the Egyptian-hall at the Mansion-house, as the arrangements of the Guildhall would not admit of the court being held in the usual place. Alderman CHALLIS said it was important that no time should be lost, and his Lordship gave immediate orders to the town-clerk to issue a summons con vening a court for Thursday next, the 13th inst. Mr. C. PEARSON then, addressing his Lordship, re quested the use of the Egyptian-hall on the previous day . to enable him to exhibit his model, and explain his project to such of the members of the Court and their tam - ilies and friends as had not had an opportunity of attending his soirees in Park-street, when he had ex pounded his views and objects. It was impossible to convey an adequate exposition of his plan except by visual examination and oral explanation, and he felt that his official position as city solicitor would render it embarrassing for him to give the requisite explana tions before the Court, although, as individual mem bers and part of the public, they might allow him at a previous meeting a freedom of expression which, at a Court of Common Council, he should deem it improper to employ. The LORD MAYOR said he should afford Mr. Pear son the use of the Egyptian-hall with much pleastare, and, at the request of Alderman Challis, his Lordship consented to preside on the occasion. Wednesday next, at twelve o'clock, was then fixed for the previous meeting. The following is a copy of the requisition :- 1 "TO THE RIGHT HON. THE LORD MAYOR. " We, the undersigned members of the Court of Common Council, request your Lordship will convene a Court on an early day to consider Mr. Charles Pearson's comprehensive plan tor improving the metropolis—par ticularly the eity of London—by widening the internal new street from Farringdon-street to Clorkenwell; by raising it on a level with the high ground of the adja cent streets, and extending it to King's-cross; by con structing a trunk railroad in a well-lighted and venti lated subway under the surface of the street, connecting the northern railroads and northern suburbs of the me tropolis with termini in Farringdon-street and the new street; by lifting Holborn valley 17 feet, nearly on a level with Holborn-hill and Snow-hill; and by removing the wholesale meat and vegetable markets and the rail way carriers' receiving houses from their present con fined and inconvenient situations to spacious sites in the new street; by which means (as Mr. Pearson asserts) the over-crowded streets of the City will be relieved of a large portion of the railway waggons and the omnibusses from the northern railroads and the northern suburbs of the metropolis, that now throng the City, and impede its ordinary traffic. " We likewise request your Lordship will insert on the summons convening the meeting notices of the spe cifio motions it may be intended to propose for the con sideration of the Court. " November, 1851." THE LATE OUTRAGE NEAR OLDBUInt. Our readers will rejoice that the men who lately broke into the house of Miss Nicklin, Newbury-lane, and perpetrated so murderous an outrage on one of the inmates, are now in the hands of the officers of justice. The capture was a gallant though unexpected one. So far as our information goes, it would appear that on Wednesday night one of the county constabu lary stationed at Leominster, was patrolling a road in the immediate vicinity of that town when he met two men of suspicious appearance. One of them carried a bundle, but a saucy answer being given to his inquiry as to what it contained, the constable very wisely sought assistance before he attempted to act upon the suspicions he entertained. He ae cordiegly got the aid of a brother officer, and having overtaken the two men, the capture was attempted. One of the men, however, drew a pistol and fired it at the constables, slightly wounding one of them, and the constable thus injured, deem• ing himself justified in using a gun which he happened to be carrying, discharged the contents into the lower part of the abdomen of his assailant. After some further scuffling, the appre hension was effected, and the two were safely lodged in Leominster lockup. On being searched no fewer than four revolving pistols were found, two having five barrels each, and the other two six, nineteen of the barrels being loaded with deadly charges. No thing was known of the men, but their connexion with the Oldbury burglary was proved by nearly the whole of Miss Nicklin's property being found upon them, including the four 5/.-notes, the two shirts, the purse, the watch, and the silver spoons, along with five or six sovereigns. The Leominster officers brought the articles capable of being identified to Old bury on Thursday, and the result was that Miss Nicklin and a Miss Lewis, of Rowley, Regis (the latter of whom knitted the purse), went over to the former town yesterday, in order, we suppose, to give the evidence necessary to justify the prisoners being sent on remand before the magistrates of the Old bury district. We understand that the burglar who was shot is in a dangerous state, and we are sorry to learn that Mr. David Nicklin has not progressed so satisfactorily as to enable his medical attendant to pronounce his recovery anything like certain.— Bzrmirighant Journal. POOR-RATES. At the Mansion-house on Friday, R. King Fletcher, a whitesmith, from Tewkesbury, was brought before Alderman Wilson upon a warrant signed by two magistrates of that town for the apprehension of the defendant, for the non• payment of a poor-rate amount ing to Bs. Gd. Mr. Goodman (the chief clerk) informed the alder man that the expenses accumulated upon the unfor tunate man, who in all probability was not able to pay a shilling, amounted to the enormous sum of 71. 193., so that the demand was at that moment Si. 7s. Gd., the original claim being no more than Bs. Gd. Alderman Wilson—This is certainly a most ex traordinary case. How does it happen that you are placed in this difficulty for the sum of Bs. 6d. ? The defendant—l was not in Tewkesbury at the time the warrant was issued. I was in London, out of employment, but the summons was served upon my wife. I have every reason to believe that spite has a good deal to do with this proceeding against me, or why should Ibe followed to London at an expense which they must know I cannot pay ? Alderman Wilson—lf the case be as you describe e o c y e o e u d r i proceeding ifehasan (l b e e e n hil i d n r d e e n ed no a w s ? tran T g h e e one. Where f i e t n h d teh a r n ee t — aprr T he y are with me in London. I hope your worship will accept bail for my appearance. Alderman Wilson—l regret that I cannot take bail.

The defendant was then sent to the Compter, under special directions from the alderman as to his treat ment there. The defendant was . again brought on Saturday before Alderman Wire anofficer from Tewksbury having appeared for the purpose of executing the warrant. Alderman Wire having been informed of the cir cumstances of the case, asked the Tewkesbury con stable how it happened that the expenses were so large ? The officer replied that the defendant was able to pay the rates which he had refused to pay, and the authorities had accordingly sent after him, and the expenses had been incurred in travelling and looking after him. The defendant —I am not able to pay the rate, and am not able to pay the demands, and that was well known in Tewkesbury. Alderman Wire—l have no alternative but to land the defendant over to the officer. I cannot, however, do so without stating that the inhabitants of Tewkes bury are, in my opinion, b'und to inquire into the mode in which their money is expended in looking TRIBUNALS OF COMMEARCE. A meeting of the society for promoting the esta blishment of tribunals of commerce, mad reducing our various mercantile laws to a simple and intelligible commercial code, took place on Saturday at the London Tavern, under the presidency of M r . M'Gregor, M.P. The object of the meeting was to afford Mr. L eon i Levi, of Edinburgh, the author of a work on the subject, an opportunity of submitting his views as to the formation of a code of commerce for England. Mr. LYNE, as the honorary secretary, explained how it was that they had invited Mr. Leoni Levi to meet them. Although they knew that the whole commercial community agreed in the principle of tribunals of commerce, and upon the immense advan tage which would result from them, yet the magni tude of the task that they had undertaken was such that they had to proceed in it step by step. The committee had been in communication with the Chambers of Commerce of Manchester and Liverpool on the subject, which had at length been taken up by them end by other commercial bodies. It had been sugg - ested by in fluential persons that the time had =Tier' when they should think of preparing tiip draft of a commercial code for Great Britain. When the suggestion was made, the committee felt its importance, and applied to Lard Brougham to point cut a gentleman qualified to frame such a code. The Noble and Learned Lord took time to consider the subject, and consulted other authorities, and ultimately he suggested, as did also Mr. Hume, that the committee should hear the views of Mr. Leoni Levi. Upon a suggestion from so high a quarter they could do no less than act. He was aware that some prejudice might be entertained on the part of the public against a foreignerta being in vited for such a purpose instead of some member of the English bar ; but that objection had been well answered by Jeremy Bentham, who had pointed out the great advantage which woild result from per" naistieg-a-ioreigner la- , take ''fttelUld in ennipetation with the native authorities in framing such a erode. Bentham even went so far as to propose " that for the drawing of the original draught all foreigners be admitted into the competition, and that in so far as applicable, unless it be in all particulars taken to gether decidedly inferior, the draught of a foreigner be employed in preferen ce ." _ _ MX.. LEONI Live then presented himself. He said he believed the committee had undertaken a task whieh would confer the greatest benefit upon the country when it should be realized ; but it was one which could not be accomplished satisfactorily without the greatest caution, and a full knowledge of all matters bearing on the subject. A code of commerce should embrace all the several branches of commercial law by which the mercantile community, in its various relations, could be effected. Starting with merchants, it would be necessary to define what belonged to' the civil law as regarded minors, unmarried females, and idiots. Then they would have to deal with the law of partnership; and here they would have to consider the different relations of general and private partner ship, unlimited liability, and partnership with limited liability. Again, they must consider the law of gene ral contract, and contracts for sales—a subject which in itself opened a large field for discussion, inasmuch as the law was widely different in Eng land and Scotland. Next, there was the law of exchange—of principal and agent, including broker age and insurance. Then there was the law of shipping, the law of bankruptcy, and, lastly, mercantile jurisdiction. A code of commerce should define the law in all these several branches. In some points the law was established permanently, but in others it was changeable with varying circumstances, and it would be necessary in the code that these should be divided and kept distinct. It would also be essential, in dealing with the subject, that they should conciliate the various interests, and combine those which were at present permanently opposing. In bankruptcy again there was a considerable differ ence between the English and Scotch law. The Eng lish bankrupt law had been the subject of constant alteration and change, while the Scotch law had been permanent; and any one who attempted to combine the mercantile laws of Great Britain into a simple and compact code must deal with all these points, and overcome all these obstacles; The object in which the society had embarked in this respect was one of the noblest in which they could engage, for it was the chief point in all reform of mercantile law, and would prove to be the readiest means of extending information upon the subject. Though the commer cial law of Great Britain was at present frightfully confused, it wa3 yet based on sound and solid principles. Under a mass of heterogeneous materials it contained the results of profound reflection and wisdom, deep march, and the principles of a normal standard for the administration of justice. The first thing to be done was to extract from these materials what was the law, and to lay it before the public in a plain, practical, and intelligible form ; not to frame a new law, but to bring the law as it was under the comprehension of every one affected by it. The proper course would be to depute a person, qualified and able to grasp the whole subject in all its difficul ties and details, to prepare such a project of law, com prising under distinct heads the permanent law, that which was susceptible of modification, and that wherein the Scotch and English laws differed. This project should then be forwarded to the various mer cantile communities, in order that they might criti cise it, and explain the customs in different places, and the variance that there was from the law as it ap peared to be. He would allow six months for the in quiry, and would suggest that the Chambers of Com merce at Liverpool and Manchester should be re quested to investigate the law under its different heads, as the law of partnership, the law of exchange, and so on. Then, having obtained tile views of these impeetant bodies, and of the leading mercantile men of the country, he would propose that their ob servations should be compared and considered, and that where they agreed in support of any point, that article should be inserted in the code. In this way, by such gradations, a code of mercantile law might be formed which would have the concurrence of the whole of the mercantile classes of the kingdom, and which would then be sufficiently ripe and matured to be submitted for the sanction of the Legislature.-- (Hear, hear.) Committees had already been formed in Edinburgh, Glasgow, and Birmingham, and he had addressed a meeting in Dublin on the subject; and in all these places he had found that the mercan tile body were unanimous. The brief outline given by Mr. Levi appeared to give general satisfaction. The chairman expressed his full concurrence in it, and his belief that it was perfectly practicable, and concluded by proposing a vote of thanks to Mr. Levi, which was seconded by Mr. Paul, and carried unanimous ly. THE PANAMA RAILWAY. The following description of the works in progress on the isthmus by Captain Abott, of the West India Mail steamer Thames, will repay perusal : " Sir,—For the'information of the directorsJl beg to inform you that, during the stay of the Royal Mail steamer Thames at Chagres in September last, I availed myself of the opportunity offered me by the late resident engineer at Navy Bay to visit the works there and the Panama Railroad, accompanied by the Admiralty agent and some of my officers. The day I selected unfortunately proved a very unfavourable one, notwithstanding which we went about two miles m we a r d e e, m a u n c d h th g e ra s t y ifi st e e d m t a o tie se m e an th n e er p i r n og w r h es i s h theand a half, or nearly three mil es , on th e ra il road, and they had c work was going on. The rails are laid on piles, very thickly placed, and apparently very substan tial ; a considerable distance is already filled in round the piles, and under the road, with a sortof earth much resembling brick-earth, which I shouldimagine, would soon bind, and form a fine embankment. The navigators were at work at the time we visited the road carting this sort of earth from a bank through which they had made a short cutting; the waggons were transported by a locomotive engine. The line, as you may be aware, is being made in sections. The length completed to run on from Navy Bay is, lam told by Mr. Preston, the engineer, three miles, and he hopes by Christmas to have the line the na completed to Gatun, a distance of seven miles. From tune of the earth that they are filling up with between the piles, I should conceive that after it had laid for some little time and got firm, the road will be inde pendent of the pil e s, even should they in the course of time give way or be eaten with worms. At present, Mr. Preston assured me there was not the slightest ap pearance of e a thing, and many hundred of pil es su_ h had been in the ground since the commencement. I should imagine they had at least 150 men employed on the section we visited, principally, I think, nabligr of Cartlaagena. The offices and workshops on the section have every appearance of a system of deter mination to get on, and the wharfs made afford great facilities for landing materials and provisions. While we were there, a brig of about 450 tons came along side the wharf, where she had 2.0 feet of water, and although a lightThreez9 was blowing from the north ward with a swell ;;outside, the water was perfectly still and smooth in the bay. I should ,observe, also, that we saw passenger carriages, first and second of a very superior description, and nicely fitted these had been sent from America, and were at the station ready for use at an hour's notice, also several luggage vans, and another making at the station.
