DAKEYNE ; seconded by THOMAS lissrrissunr, Esq.— Resolved,—That this meeting has heard with the utmost satisfac tion the decision of the Board of Trade, as it regards their inten tion to report to Parliament against the London and York Railway, and in favour of the Cambridge and Lincoln, so much of the Direct Northern as lies north of Lincoln, the Nottisgham and Lincoln, and the Grimsby, Gainsborough, and Sheffield Railways. That the line from Cambridge through Lincoln to York will be much more speedily accomplished, and at a much less cost, than the proposed London and York line, while from the extremely favour able nature of the country a rate of spec kits travelling may safely prevail which secures to this line a nitgirdeaded advantage over the London and York line. , That the extension of the London extremity of the line to Earring don-street offers the graziers of Lincolnshire immediate access to Smithfield ; whereas the terininus of the London and York is at the distance of two miles front that important market. 2 hat this line southward wi rd the cheapest and relest ace es . to the m, tropolis and its various ma.kets, and northward will con nect r.. , n• oinshire wi It Rotherham, Sheffield, and Ma• eh ster, and by crossing the proposed %% akefleld, I ontetract, and (bole line, and the Leeds, Selby, and Hull line, will su ply a r:ady c mmunicatien with all the other West hiding v ark ts, while the prepo ed line from this city to Nott nOtain will brio this great rgricultural county into connexion with the populous and import sit mantifiecturing d s tricts of Birmingham, the Pott ries, the Derbysid c and Notting mstrire coal-fields, &c., and thur becoming the channel through which tits great str. am a traffic r tinning north and south wi 1 tioW— Lincoln will b in de a g eat and central depot for manufacturing and agricultural produce, and a station of tit: first importance. That no e of the existing modes of c, mmunieation will be closed ; where as, should th t London and York lint be constructed, tin • traffic nor tit and son h would be carried alo g a the several miles west of the' city of Lincoln, nts railway ace mmodation wou d be confined to an inconvenient and circuitous branch lino, alms which little traffic would flow, and the periods of transit would be few and restricted, at the same time that a monop dy of the most grievous and hurtful na ture would he perpetuated. That for these reasons It is of the highest importance that all per sons interested in the prosper. ty of the town should use every exer tion to support the decision of the Board of Trade, and to secure to themselves t ae incalculable advantages which will be derived ftom the formation of the railways above-mentioned. On the motion of Mr. W. FISHER; seconded by Mr. T. NEWTON — That copies of these resolutions be forwarded to the Members of Parliament for the city and co arty of Lincoln, and the boroughs of Stamford, Grantham, Boston and Grimsby, with a request that they will support the above railways; and that petitions in accordance with these resolutions be prepared forthwith, to be presented to both Houses of Parliament, in support of the saute. On the motion of Mr. T. J. N. Buounvi ; seconded by Mr. OLDFIELD— That this meeting has heard with the utmost indignation that par ties connected with the London and York line arc hiring hordes of labouring men at 2s. each, to attend at the County. meeting in the Castle-yard, on Friday next, to hold up their hands in favour of the London and York line. That this course of action Moue shows that the supporters of the London and York Railway are conscious of their weakness, and attic unpopularity of the line which they advo cate ; and that C. Seely, Esq., be respectfully requested to attend the County meeting en behalf of this assemblage, to expose to the gentry of the county the means taken to bring together the bands of labour ers selected to hold up their hands ; also to advocate the interests of the City at the meeting in question. On the motion of Mr. FRESHNET ; seconded by Mr. THORNTON— That the following gentlemen be appointed a Public Railway Com mittee, to watch over the interests of lids city, with reference to railway matters, end to call public meetings of the citizens on the subject, if they should think circumstances render such a course necessary, and that the following gentlemen do constitute such Com mittee : Joseph Moore, Esq.

In submitting to the public a scheme for the construction of a rail way along the south shore of the Moray Frith, and connecting the towns of Inverness, Nairn, Forres, and Elgin, the Committee con sider that there is no situation in Scotland which affords a more cer tain prospect of profitable investment. The col ntry through which it passes is nearly a perfect level. The length of the line, with the branches to the ports, is 441 miles. The main line passes from Inverness to Elgin, through the towns of Nairn and Forres. The whole adjacent district is rich and fertile, and con tains a large and thriving population. It includes ten of the most im portant market towns of the north of Scotland, in which at least fifty considerable markets are annually held. Within this district, also, and branching off to the south of the main line, lie the fertile valleys of the Spey, Findhorn, and Nairn, and the Great Glen of Scotland, between which and the different towns along the line, and the sea-ports, there is an extensive and daily Increasing intercourse. This district is so situated, that all the main highways from the north and west, including thwe by the ferries of Kessock and Fort George, centre upon it. Besides the ports of Inverness, Nairn, Dm:thorn, Burghead, and Lossiemouth, it comprises the basins and quays of the Caledonian Canal, and the military station of Fort George. Along the main line from Inverness to Elgin, besides a large pas senger traffic, by posting and private conveyances, there are eight daily coaches (four each way). 'The traffic must be greatly increased when a more rapid communication is opened up between the termini and the intermediate towns and villages. Another and large additional traffic will be brought upon the Hue by the London, Leith, and Aberdeen steamers, which call at Lossie mouth and Burghead, landing their passengers for Inverness, Nairn, and the country beyond, at either of these ports, instead of taking them, as at present, by the circuitous route to Invergordon, where, they are detained for several hours. The line will also afford great additional &citifies to the trade which has hitherto been carried on by a steamer and sailing vessels, plying between the Moray and Nairnshire coast and the Little Ferry in Sutherlandshire, as, on the opening of the railway, regular and efficient steam communication between these points and others on the Sutherland and Caithness coasts will necessarily be established. By these arrangements, in addition to the existing traffic by land, and that carried on by steamers to Inverness, the greater part of the traffic, both In goods and passengers, from Inverness to Sutherland and Caithness, will be brought along the line.

Notice is hereby given, that no further applications for Shares will be me:dyed after the 31st instant. 831,145 0 0 The engineering works of the line, from the unusually level nature of the country, and its passing over a light gravelly soil, are of a very simple character. There are no tunnels or viaducts, and the country abounds in all the materials, with the exception of iron, necesaary for the construction of a Railway. The capital has been set down at 300,0001., and the revenue, as above stated, after deducting the usual allowance for working ex penses, and assuming one-third of the capital to be borrowed, ac cording to the ordinary practice of Railway Companies, at the usual rate of interest, shows a clear return of upwards of eight per cent. It is proposed, in the first place, to lay down a single line of rails, with the usual passing places, until the traffic shall be more daffy de veloped. The bridges are, however, to be built, and the land pur chased, for a double line. Besides the advantages above enumerated, arising from the local traffic, there are other and important sources of revenue, to which it is proper to advert. The west end of the line will connect with the Caledonian Canal, which originally cost 1,000,000/., and on the im provement of which 200,000/. are now in the co , rse of being ex pended by Government. These improvements, which will be com pleted before the railway comes into operation, will greatly increase the navigation, both of steamers and sailing-vessels, on the Canal, along which, even at present, two s'eamers ply twice a week, while a large and powerful steamer is to be placed, on the opening of the Canal, in the direct Liverpool trade, The whole of this extensive traffic from Glasgow, Liverpool, &c., towards the counties of Banff, Nairn, and Moray, must necessarily pass along the proposed Railway. On the other hand, towards the east, the line will be continued by the contemplated railway from Elgin to Aberdeen—thus connecting all the towns and manufacturing districts on the west of England and Scotland, through the Caledonian canal, with - the rich agricultural country to the east of Elgin, and onwards to the city of Aberdeen, and'other towns on the east coast of Scotland. Besides constituting an important link in the direct east and west communication of this part of the kingdom, the present railway must of necessity form the northern outlet of the contemplated great direct Central Railway from Perth to Inverness, in continuation of the Scottish Central and Caledonian Railways, thus completing the si:ortest possible line between England and the southern counties of Scotland and the north ; and, from its position in this respect, the Inverness and Elgin Railway will become the channel through which will flow the whole traffic between the north and south. The Capital will be divided into 15,000 Shares of 20/. each. The Parliamentary Deposit of five per cent. to be paid upon the shares being allotted, and the Subscribers to sign the Parliamentary Con tract and Subscribers' Agreement when required. Power will be taken to pay interest at four per cent. on the amount of the subscription paid up till the line is opened, and no subscriber shall be answerable for more than the amount of his subscription.

The Board of Trade has reported in favour of the line from Aber deen to the Borth. The Bill for this line is now in progress through Parliament ; and, with the already existing lines, and others recom mended by the Board of Trade, will form a continuous chain of rail way communication from Aberdeen. to London, in connexion with Dundee, Perth, Edinburgh, Glasgow,' and the important towns of England along the line. The Report of the Board of Trade on Rail way Communication in Scotland, and which has been laid before Parliament, states that" the Aberdeen line southward is a proper and necessary part of a system of railway communication for the northern portion of Scotland ; that this line appears to be well laid out, with a view to the objects which it Ims to attain and that the impor. tance of it is increased by the consideration that a cheap and easy line, Vaversing a district of considerable population and losal traffic, is stated to have been surveyed from Aberdeen to Inverness. communi Should this he tile case, it seems no t improbable that railway tion to the more northern counties may be extended in this direction." In accordance with the views thus indicated in the report from the Board of Trade, it has now been resolved to extend the means of railway communication northward from Aberdeen to Inverness. The line will commence at the Aberdeen Company's Station, in the centre of Aberdeen, and will proceed by Old Aberdeen, along the fertile valley of the Don, through the burghs of Kintore and Inverury, from thence through Kinnethmont, and the towns of Huntly, Keith, Elgin, Forres, and Nairn, on to Inverness, where a very suitable station CAR be obtained, and where a convenient cornmunication can also be formed with the Caledonian Canal. It will thus be seen that the line passes through the rich and flourishing counties of Aberdeen, Banff, Moray, Nairn, and Inverness, districts of the highest agricul tural and manufacturing' importance. The local traffic with the city of Aberdeen, which is the great outlet for their produce. as well as the market for their supplies of all kinds, is very large ; and the traffic of the whole northern counties towards England must pass along this line. It is also proposed to fortn three branch lines in connexion with, and at the same time as the trunk I. The first to Banff and Portsoy, leaving the main line at Strathisda. 2. The second to Fochabers, leaving the trunk line near the point where it crosses the Spey. 3. The third to Lossiemouth or Burghead, from Elgin. The counties through which the trunk line and branches pass com prise within themselve s a p o p ulation (as appears by the census of 1841) of 384,094, in additio to Sutherland, opulation of the four northern COunties of Ross, Cromarty, and Caithness, to which this line will afford an outlet. At various points along the line are to be found limestone and slate, of the best quality ; also ironstone, man ganese, and other minerals, the value of which is very great ; re quiring only facility of transit for its development. The line has al ready been specially approved of by almost every landed proprietor through whose estates it passes. Mr. Gibb has made great progress with the Parliamentary surveys, which will be ready to be placed before the Beard of Trade on an early day, and all necessary steps will be taken to insure the intro duction of the measure into Parliament next session. From the favourable nature of the, country, the gradients will be excellent, and the expense of construction far under that of any rail way of similar length ever yet executed in Great Britain. There will be no tunnel whatever, nor cuttings of any extent throughout the line. In fact, the rails for nearly one-half of the line may almost be laid on the existing levels. The cost of executing the main line and branches Mr. Gibb esti mates at under 1,100,0001. And from a report which has been ob tained from competent parties employed to value the traffic on the line since the month of October last, the revenue is computB3o3 ed to be — From passenger traffic alone •••• • • • ....... • • X 9, From goods traffic •• . .... ...••• • • • • • 78,413 Application for shares to be made, in the form annexed, to Messrs.

ROYAL LONDON OPIITHALSII4I HOSPITAL, MOOR FIELDS.—On Wednesday last a beautiful marble bust, from the chisel of Weekes, the successor of the late Sir Francis Chantrey, was erected to the me mory of the late John Cunningham Saunders, Esq., in the principal room of this institution, on which occa sion a dinner took place, which was attended by the medical officers of the institution and about 20 gentlemen, members of the Committee. Mr. Saunders, whose name is probably little remembered now, except by his con temporaries in the medical profession and a yearly lessen ing circle of warmly attached friends, was the founder of the institution, the parent of all others of the same description, which was opened to the public on the 25th March, 1805. He died shortly afterwards, and was denied the satisfaction of witnessing the prosperity of this his favourite offspring. A few of his early friends presented his bust to the institution, as a tribute of respect to his memory. The justness of taste and beauty of execution displayed by the sculptor elicited from the company the warmest expressions of approval. MORTALITY IN THE METROPOLIS.—The number of deaths during the week, ending Saturday, March 22, was 1,197, exceeding the average by 158, and that of the previous, week by 128. The excess is still chiefly among diseases of the lungs and other organs of respi ration, chiefly bronchitis, asthma, and consumption. Violent deaths, also, are very numerous, amo un ti ng t o not less than 42, of which 16 were from b urns an d scalds, 3 from poison, and 4 from suicide. The deaths from small-pox occurred at the following ages :—six under 1 year ; eight 1-3 ; three 3-5 ; five 5-10 ; ene 12 ; four 20-30 ; and one 20 years.

TRADE.—k rumour has gained very exten sive publicity in the City—more particularly amongst those engaged in the India trade—that the well-known house of Evrington and Graham, whose extensive deal ings in the Eastern markets have obtained for them, high name, had removed to other premises.. - It is but justice to those gentlemen to state that such is not the fact, the more particularly as premises have been opened in the immediate neighbourhood, the title, of which* establikhincnt has a tendency to mislead the public. The abolition of the duty on glass, and rediction of that up )n sugar and other articles of consumption, will have the elect of dispensing with many officers of the e.xclie department, but they will be entitled to half•pay on retirement. Letters to this effect have been addressed to the excise districts in Ireland, from the London. Board. (.;,1 HREWSBURY AND BIRMINGHAM It 4ILWAY. GENERAL MEETING OF SUBSCRIBERS.

This Railway will establish a most desirable line of communication between London, Dover, Salisbury, Yeovil, and the West of England, traversing in its course many wealthy, populous, and important districts. It will commence at the Reigate-station on the Dover and Brighton Railways, and pass by Dorking and Guildford to Basingstoke. From thence it will proceed by. Whttchurch, Andover, and Salisbury, to Yeovil. By whichmeans the connexion between the East and West Coasts of England will be complete. • A ihrther and most important feature of the undertaking is, that by using the line of the South Western Railway film London to Basingstoke, it will bring Salisbury and Yeovil into an entirely direct line of communication with the Metropolis. The distance from London to Salisbury will be about SO miles, an 1 to Yeovil 120 miles. It will also unite four of the principal Railways in the kingdom ; viz., the Dover, Brighton, South-Western, and Great Western, and at the same time will most materially aid communication between the ports of Dover, Shoreham, Portsmouth, Southampton and Bristol, a most desirable object in a national point Of view. A reference to the accompanying map will manifestly prove that few Railways in the kingdom w:11 form a medium of communication with a greater aggregate of wealthy, populous, and important places. By it, Salisbury, Sherhorne, Yeovil, Bath and Bristol, Bradford, Trowbridge, Frome, Guildtbrd, Farnham, Basingstoke, ;Whitchurch, Andover, Weyhill with its extensive fair, Shaftesbury, Milborne Port, Stal bridge, and I lchester, with the numerous smaller towns and villages in their vicinity, will be brought into immediate connexion with each otlker, rendering the undertaking eminently calculated to promote the convenience of the public, and certain to yield a large return to its proprietors. The country to be traversed will, as has been ascertained from ac tual surveys, admit of the construction of the Railway at a moderate cost. - The portions yet to be formed will comprise the country be tween Reigate and Salisbury, about 76 miles (less about 11 miles proposed to be used of the South Western Railway), and that between Salisbury and Yeovil about 40 miles, making the entire length of the line yet to be constructed no more than 105 miles.
