I 'HI c naen whom we also hope to see moved by the proceedings over which the Noble Duke presided—those ho have been half frightened into admitting the ne cossity of sacrificing the interests or exis ce of Bri•ish industry by the alarm that has_heeit so loudly sounded of an impending familie. The reports ob tained by the Royal Agricultural Society from the local associations in almost 'every part of England, all concur in stating that there has been a full average of wheat and other crops, and in many cases considerably above an average ; and that though in almost every district the potato crop was more or less diseased, still that the disease had in almost all cases been greatly ex aggerated. This must put a stop, therefore, to the famine delusion—a delusion so necessary for the objects of the anti- English faction, that its leadn.g organs only yester day make it matter of indecent attack on his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, that he recently ex pri ssed his belief of that which is now vouched to us on the most competent authority. We earnestly entreat c o o u n r c a e g r r n i e c d u l w tu e ral kn r o e l a v d e n r o s d o i f s t a i n l all classes—fortion s o rran k w — h e t all are on peruse r us e carefully the report we give of the proceedings of yester day. Let them only follow out the sentiments of the Duke of Richmond by united and vigorous action, and we have no fear for the result. Without action they are lost. PUCE 50. CHRONICLE.—The accounts from Mexico by the last mail most fully corroborate en opinion which we ventured to express several months since. This was, that the possession of the Columbia River was not an isolated question, the American Government pretending at the same time, and making every effort, to possess itself of the Bay of San Francisco and of Monterey, the harbour and the ca pit a l o f Upp e r Celifornia. It seems that Mexico is no more to be permitted to preserve a dignified and pacific r e s en t men t f o r the spoliation of Texas, than England i s t o b e permitted to occupy the old forts and establishments north of the Columbia. Mr. Polk is resolved to shove us from the Pacific, at least give us warning to quit, and at the same time he forces • poor Mexico to negotiate, that is to say, to sanction and extend the robbery of its territory. We were aware that the United States would claim the line cf the Rio Bravo del Norte, with Santa Fe, as part of Texas ; but we were not prepared for the exaggerated im pudence of their claiming to take from Mexico all her empire from the 421 down to the 36th degree of latitude. Ole should think it were in the power, as it ceetalnly is in the interest of France, England, and Russia, to put a stop to such monstrous and unwar rantable ambition. But France, ashatned of having been implicated in the foolish effort tit' save Texas, has washed her hands of further trouble by an adroitly ;got-up quarrel be tween her Ambassador and the Mexi can authorities. For fear the horse-boy outrage aas nit enough, M. Alleye de Cyprey got into another fracas with M. Otero. It is scarcely possible to imagine a French diplomatic agent so forgetful of his profession, character, and schooling, as to get into scrapes that wou'd damage the reputation of an ensign for prudence, unless there was some diplomatic object to be gained thereby. It might be wise for England to keep aloof ; but Jonathan does not understand the reciprocity of '• let alone." Mr. Polk insists on placing one foot on one shore of the Columbia, the other on the Mexican bay of San Fran c isco. He provokes us at the same erntislaern continent time with Mexico, and draws his sword to bully us both into negotiation. ‘Vith all the love of peace that would upon Pacific. satisfy a Quaker, we do not see how such dictation can be submitted to, or how we can quietly give up" p . power which seizes at the same time the only other l o th rt ol o t f th e e °ul northern compensation the Columbiapn the to a From the Mexicans themselves there seem few hopes, although it is the nature of the Spanish race to endure an infinity of wrong with an infinity of patience and sluggishness, starting up at the eleventh hour, when every one deems them crushed, to assert their independence, their manhood, and their rights. But the worst of a Spanish body politic is its ever irre sistible tendency to fall asunder. Every known sample of central Government has been either so tyrannical or so imbecile, and in both cases corrupt, that the very name is abhorred. It is only after two or three years' experience that the provincial deputy begins to find his federalist prejudices wear off, and to perceive the ad vantages of a general government. But just as he. has acquired this experience, he is subjected to re-electfon, and a totally new, raw provincial returned in his place. One-third of the Mexican Congress is now in course of renewal ; the result will be the return of just such men as will fraternise with the American Democrats. In order to allow us fully to taste the advantage of Mex ico being independent, the Government has afforded to English commerce many new and valuable facilities by lowering the tariff. But with Anglo-American councils and principles in the ascendant, these facilities cannot !ong survive ; and we shall end by finding the custom house of Fera Cruz as hostile as that of Galveston has lately become. • - ADVERTISER.—The League resumes its metropo litan Meetings on Wednesday next. On this day week Mr. Cobden, Mr. Bright, Mr. Fox, and others re-appear in Covent-garden Theatre. Theirs will be an enthusi astic reception. We venture to say that no one over appeared on the boards of that establishment, celebrated as it always has been for the performances of distin guished men, who met with a tithe of the applause with which Mr. Cobden will be greeted when he next Wed nesday presents himself before a metropolitan audience: And it is right to say, that it is impossible to receive him with more enthusiasm than he deserves. Ile is an extraordinary man. He is one of the leading spirits of the age. Without any pompousness of manner, or pre tensions of any kind, he has been the main agent in in • stituting, organising, and carrying on one of the most powerful confederacies of mode rn times. The League is a sort of Opposition Parliament. If it do not actually make laws, it suggests them, and by means of the moral influence which it commands, induces another body to legislate in the way it thinks best. The corn-laws are about to be repealed ; the ports are on the eve of being permanently opened ; the long-desired advent of free trade is at the door. To whom is the country indebted for these mighty proximate benefits ? There Cali be but one answer to the question. The country's obligations are due to the League alone. The credit is solely the League's, and the League only ought to receive the praise and gratitude of an admiring nation. Our readers will share with us the gratification with which we regard the return of the League—a great and never-tiring loco motive body—to the metropolis. The presence of Messrs. Cobden and Bright is much wanted here. A mighty metropolitan demonstration against the corn-laws will be productive of infinite good at this particular juncture. Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Sheffield, and most of the large manufacturing towns have al ready proclaimed afresh their uncompromising hostility to the landlords' laws. They have raised their voice against the continuance of these laws in any shape or form. It is fitting that London should follow their example. The City is about to do so. The citizens meet on Monday with that view. At the City meeting, however, Messrs. Cobden and Bright, Rot being con nected with the City, cannot be present. What is wa nted, is one or more great anti-monopolist demonstra tions, in which the people indiscriminately may take a part, and Messrs. Cobden and Bright, as the impersona tion of the League, be the principal actors. Without., indeed, the presence of these gentlemen, anti. corn-law meetings, on a large scale, seem out of place. The de monstrations lack effect. The resumption of the metro politan meetings of the League will give a mighty im pulse to the anti-monopolist cause. It will deepen and extend the anti-corn-law enthusiasm which is every where felt. The proceedings at the coming gatherings will fan the flame of hope in every bosom in which the fire has already been kindled, and it will light it up where it has not as yet had an existence. The country looks to London : the provinces fix their eyes on the metropolis. The effect of the impending demon strations will be great, great in London—great through ' out the country. Ministers in Downing-street will all but hear the plaudits which will peal through Covent garden Theatre, while Mess rs. Cobden and Bright are hurling their withering denunciations at the bread mo nopoly, and predicting its i nevitable and immediate doom. Next morning's post will waft the speeches of these two gentlemen to every part of the kingdom, and in every spot and corner their appeals to the people to make one last grand effort to crus h the corn-laws will meet with a cordial response. It is right we should hero say a word or two by way of caution. While saying that the destruction of the giant monopoly is inevitable and immediate, it is requisite the country should be reminded that with the accomplishment of this great object, there is necessarily associated the use of means. When we speak of the repeal of the im posts on corn, as work which will assuredly be done early in the coming session, we do so on the assumption that the people, so far from slackening in their endeir yours to achieve corn-law repeal, will carry on the agi tation more vigorously than ever. Let no one, therefore retire from the conflict with the monopolists until the victory has actually been won. Every man must con tinue on the field o f action, and in the energetic use of his weapons o f warfare, until the enemy has struck his colours and flies discomfited from the . scene of conflict. The shout of vi ctor y must not be raised antil the battle has actually besii won ; far less must any soldier in the free-trade r anks, throw aside his arms while monopoly continues to maintmaintaina defensive attitude. A few weeks mo re of conflict will be all that will be required. We c onfidently expect, notwithstanding the vehement pro testations of t h e morning and evening " sisters " to the contrary, that on the first night of the session, the Pre mier will announce the day on which the landlords' laws will have to meet their doom. ripilicauniitottnoeetthhan,t Lords Select tSbe e le , c7ttho:f A : ru eolgust), TUB QUEEN OF DENMARK. —This new historical romance, which has just made its appearance, under the aus pices of Mrs. Gore, is likely to meet with warm commenda tion from all classes of readers. The principal personages and their characters, the incidents, the localities, the amusements, of the Court and its manners, are painted with such truth to nature, and the whole is in such perfect keeping, that we may well believe, as the author asserts, that the information on which he founded his narrative was derived from one who had himself been an eye-witness and actor in the scenes de scribed.

It is abundantly manifest that the position of the agricul tural interest as a class is undergoing, And must undergo, a great change. In such change the relative position of " Landlord and Tenant" will form the most Important feature, and the establish ment of a sound system of " Tenants' Rights" will be a cardinal point for " Tenant Farmers." For fourteen years THE MARK LANE EXPRESS AND AGRICULTURAL JOURNAL has been the zealous and uncompromising advocate of the Tenants' Rights, and with the conviction that the interests of the Tenantry are vitally involved in the question, the columns of this journal will be continuously devoted to its discussion and elucidation.

MACKENZIE, PATERSON, AND CO. REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS. Your Directors have tho satisfaction to announce the amalgama tion of eight principal Companies in competition for the lease of this Railway. Among these competitors, your Company occupied a proud posi tion. They not only presented a subscription list of tho ye, first class, and comprising much that was calculated to inspire public Ideuce, but a depo3it fund, amounting to 6,425,000 f., or more double the caution-money required by the Fren ch Government. F t is gratifying to your Directors that, by common consent, even amongst their competitors, the first place was conceded to your Com pany. In the actual state of the money market, and In the present de pressed situation of railway property in general, your DireCtOrS deemed It prudent to prefer rather a fraction of a concession, obtained upon the very best terms, than to run the risk of a probably reckless competition, that could not fall to be ruinous to the Company who should obtain it. To arrive at a result so much to be desired, and to include in this arrangement all the bona fide competing Companies, your Directors made many successive sacrifices. They have succeeded in retaining one-fifth of the stock, and seven Directors (four French and three English) in tho consolidated Company, viz. : CAPITAL. Francs. Mackenzie, Paterson, and Co. ......

The competition of the " Postmasters' Company" did not in the least alter the determination of your Directors as to their bidding. They had made up their minds, whatever might be the number of competitors, not to accept the lease of this railway unless for a term that could not fall to be highly remunerative to the Shareholders (considered only with respect to the actual traffic), in addition to the mathematical certainty of the repayment of the capital in the terra of the lease, by the operation of a moderate sinking fund. The result of the adjudication is, a lease to the consolidated Com pany for a term of 34 years sad 15 days, to be computed from the period of the opening ef the line to the public, throughout its entire length from Tours to Nantes. The maximum term fixed by the law relating to this railway was 35 years. As to the general conditions of the grant, it may suffice to Pay, that they are precisely the same In every respect as those of the Or leans and Bordeaux Railway, except that in the case cf the Tours and Nantes Railway the Company are bound te repay the Govern ment the actual cost of the land for the seat ef the railway and its accessories. The Company Al thus have to support only about one-half of the entire cost of an admirably constructed railway, stocked and appointed in the most efficient manner. They will, consequently, have only one-half the capital on which to provi le a dividend, with the whole net revenue of the line applicable to that purpose. After the distribution of a return equal to eight per cent. per an num to the Shareholders, the Government is entitled to one-half of albs ausplue-protus, but not wall after the first five years of the open ing of the line throughout to Nantes, and not even then unless the aggregate profits of the preceding years shall have been equal to six per cent. on the capital actually expended, plus a inking Mad. Your Directors would just observe, that a sinking fund of one and a half per cent., improved at four per cent. compound interest, (i. e., extinguishing a four per cent. stock, by paying off a certain number of Shares annually), will liquidate the whole capital of the Company in 33 years 46 days. There will then remain nearly one year ef the lease unexpired, together with the value of the stock, materials. and stores, to be reprid to the Company by the Government, or the futere lessees of the railway, within three months after the determination of the term of the lease. 'the revenue of the last year of the term, together with the amount of the valuation of-the stock and stores of the Company, will amount to several millions of francs, which will be either distributed in the shape of a bonus to the ultimate Shareholders, or the animal sinking fund may be reduced to one and a quarter per cent. on the capital from the commencement, as the Directors may determine. Considered in all its bearings, and more especially with respect to the strong presumption that the first lessees of the French railways will be lessees in perpetuity, subject to a fine of some sort on renewal of the term, your Directors are led te believe that the grant of this railway, upon the terms upon which ithas been obtained, will be one of the best, if not the very best railway property in France. The foregoing arrangements as to the distribution of the capital amongst the competing Companies will enable your Directors to give one share in the coneplidated Company for every five of the reduced shares in this Compity. Parties entitled to fractions ef shares may render them available by joining several together, and dividing the whole shares afterwards, for which every possible facility will be given. The rights MI the Shareholders will be preserved intact, although they may have omitted to exchange their old receipts 'for new encs in time for the late competition. The adjudication pronounced in favour of this Company, on Tues day, November 25th, was approved by Royal Ordinance, in the offi cial " Moniteur" of Friday, the 28th of the same month. Such is the favourable light in which this consolidated Company is viewed by the Government, that the Royal Ordinance approving the statutes of the Company, usually a work of some months, has been already obtained. The Company is thus definitely and legally constituted a secrete anonyme, by which the liability ef a shareholder is limited to the number of shares of which he is the proprietor. The first duty of ybur Directors will be to return to the Share holders the excess of the deposits paid, after retaining 51. per share on the consolidated shares, at the same time ter give a voucher for the number of shares to which each shareholder is entitled. This duty will be entered upon as soon as the necessary forms can be prepared and printed, on Friday, 12th of December. The Certificates of Shares in the names of the Proprietors will he issued es soon as they can be got ready. The statutes of this Com pany permit that the Shares may be transferred to !wirer, when 101. per Share shall have been paid up, after which no transfer will be required. The works of construction are in a great state of ferwardness nearly throughout the whole line, but more especially so on the first and most important section, between Tours and Angers. No time will bo lost in taking the requisite measures for bringing this highly pro ductive section into early active operation in connexion with the section of the Bordeaux Railway between Orleans and Tours. Finally, the capital is More than sufficient for the completion and stocking of the railway. Paris, December 6, 1845.

SURREY THEATRE. The Infant Sappho commenced an. engagement for five performances at this theatre last evening. At the conclusion of the first piece, The Minute Gun at Sea, there was a concert in which the Sappho appeared, sup ported by her father (Mr. Vinning) and Miss Amelia Vinning. We have so frequently had occasion to express our admiration of the performances of thi s wonderful child, and so flattering have been the recorded opinions of the first musicians of the day as to her - transcendent abilities, that to dilate upon her merits is now become a work of supererogation. She pos sesses the god-like gift, genius—but not untutored genius. She is a rule unto herself, and if she does not intuitively comprehend, she is at all events intuitively guided by the most exact and abstruse rules of musical science. She thoroughly understands harmony, and is a clever contrapuntist. Like Mozart, while yet a child in years, she is a giant in musical science. Her per formance was followed by the farce of The Hole in the Wall, after which we had the grand spectacle of The Forty Thitves, which has been revived at this theatre in all its pristine splendour. The house was crowded in art. WILLIAM MACKENZIE, JOHN DAVID BARRY.

The number of Isbrned cattle is not at all equal to what it was last yeite. There are certainly some very fine animals, well shaped and well fed, which cannot but strike any agriculturist, and there are some which we think might have fairly been classed amongst the extra stock which are herb placed along with the prizes. The sheep are as numerous as lest year, and in ap pearance very fine. No particular pen, however, struck us at all • worthy of special remark. The Southdowns are numerous and good; equally so the Leicester and cross breeds. The swinish de pertment of the exhibition contains the usual amount of grunting obesity, anything hilt attractive to the general observer, however pleasing they may have been to the breeders and the judges. The machine-room not being lighted.up, and, as we understood, sev , ral of the implerrents not - being properly fitted, we had no opportunity of judging either of their novelty or inge nuity. So far As we could see there was no machine ex hibited with the general principles of which we were not previously acquainted. , It would be invidious of us to select any names for remark other than those mentioned in the list of prizes ; indeed, there can be but one opinion that the judges most admirably performed their duties. The short horned ox of Prince - Albert is a fine animal, and does much credit to the feeder. Several specimens from the stock of the late Earl Spencer attracted attention, but were not entered for competition. Several well-known names as breeders and feeders we noticed ; amongst others the Duke of Bedford, the Marquis of Exeter, the Earl of Warwick, the Earl of Leicester, the lion. Mr. Nugent, Mr. Fisher Hobbs, &c. From the excellent arrangements which have been made the exhibition is certainly much more pleasing this year than last, and the animals seen to greater ad vantage.

I saw him from half-past eleven to ten minutes past twelve that night, he was then at our shop. We wished to close the shop. There was a clock in the shop. The public-house opposite to us was closed. James Gadsden lived at a public-house. About half- past one that morning I heard some one rousing Gadsden, saying, " Get up, Gadsden, your father's houses are on fire." I got up, and saw Gadsden come out of the public house, and go towards the fire. Mary Ann Glascott, the mother of the last witness, cor roborated the testimony given by her daughter.

I went down with him to the fire. John Marshall—l knew James Gadsden. On the night of the fire I was passing along at. Martin's-lane, and saw James Gadsden come out of the private house, No. 2. It was just after the public-houses were closed at twelve o'clock. I have no doubt it was him. He ran towards West-street. There was a person waiting at the corner of West-street. Gadsden appeared to join that person. I have no doubt that person was Topham, but I did not pay attention enough to know. I did pay attention enough to say that it was Topham, but I could not. swear it was him. I saw them both next morning. I said " The premises are burned down at last." Jas.

He was in bed with his wife before half-past 10 o'clock that night. Cross-examined—My house is in Great Quebec -street. By the Jursoi:--Somebody came for him on the Sunday morning The S'oucrron-GesrEstAr , then addressed the jury upon the evidence produced by the plaintiff, in reply. Mr. JEnvis then addressed the jury in reply upon the whole of the case; he spoke in very strong terms upon the fact of Waller having been kept and fed by the defendant's solicitor. It was evident that the plaintiff could obtain no information from Thomas Foale (who was closeted and locked up probably with Waller, and who was such a witness that this immaculate office dared not call him), and he had made out a claim from the inventory which had before existed ; he had, therefore, done all he could. Where was Thomas Foale? he was at this moment eating at the expense of this office ; if they cared only for their character, why did they not produce him? if they dared not trust to him, why did they keep him in good humour? They took his slander, but would not give the plaintiff an opportunity of showing the polluted source whence it came. With regard to the in terest of the plaintiff in the property. he contended that the acts of ownership exercised by the plaintiff now proved hi.; interest in the property, and that he was entitled to a verdict upon the policy. The Learned Counsel, in a speech of great length and considerable force, then insisted that the defendant had not substantiated his pleas, and that not only must those be found for the plaintiff, but also a verdict must be given in his behalf for the amount of the policy on which his insurance was effected. Mr. Justice CoLERIDGE concluded his summing up at half past nine o'clock. The jury, after a short consultation, asked to look at the lease, which was accordingly handed to them. After inspect ing it, they again consulted together for a short time, and then returned a verdict—That the plaintiff had not produced proper vouchers as required by the defendant ; that the plaintiff was not possessed of the property in respect of which he claimed ; that he had not furnished so correct an account of it as he ought to have done; that the premises were de stroyed by fire, but not by the act of the plaintiff; that after the firehe made out a fraudulent account of his loss; and that the transaction wasefraudulent one on the part of the plaintiff. The verdict, therefore, was for the defendant on all the issues, except the one which alleged that the plaintiff had set fire to the premises. NOT COMPETING. The executors of the late Right Hon. Earl Spencer, of Althorp Park, Northampton, a 4 years and 10 months old short-horned ox, bred by the late Earl Spencer, and fed on grass, hay, turnips, mangel-wurzel, and oil-cake.

What the result of such .4. a i s l t l r b u e g s g t l e a s m s i u s: t be, e t , o t h e e s t c i hoed e t e s . t an We e t h as e e t r r i i b u e m t p h h is of de l t B e a r 1_ mination to the agricultural body at large, because the speech delivered .yesterday, by the Duke of Richmond, at the annual meeting of the Royal Agricultural Pro tection Society, was so spirit-stirring an appeal to all connected with the cultivation of the soil, that he must be worse than an infidel who can doubt the indignant en thusiasm it will excite throughout the country. From this moment we may date the commencement of an agi tation, compared with which all former movements have only been the skirmishes that precede the general action. Something we might say, perhaps, of the late ness of the period at which this resolution has been taken, and something of the supineness hitherto shown by Protection Societies • but the latter error is nobly redeemed by the proceedings of yesterday, and there is still time to remedy the past, if the present be devoted to such exertions as English yeomen have shown themselves capable of making. It never occurred to us that the apparent inaction of the agricultural body arose out of any want of a consciousness of their danger, or still less that it had its origin in the cowardice of de spondency. We knew our countrymen better than to suppose such things. We knew the difficulty of pro curing a general expression of feeling, or of producing unanimity of action, amongst men scattered over the face of the country, engaged in the anxieties of a hazardous occupation, without organ Ned means of com munication, and crippled in their deliberations, when opportunities for discussion were occasionally afforded, by the absurd prohibition of any allusion to politics. Now, however, a new impetus has been imparted to the injured agriculturists. The principal protection Society has given the word to agitate ; and the affiliated institutions are no longer debarred from considering the political bearings of their position, since the Duke of Richmond has emphatically set them the example. " The Protection Societies throughout the country," says his Grace, " must be up and doing. By all fair and legitimate means you must show your determination to the Minister and the leader of the Opposition. I say nothing of the League, for the League would be nothing, were it not led and supported by such men as Sir Robert Peel and Lord John Russell." Here is no lackadaisical abstinence from politics. The Duke, like an honest t f i a o r n m i e s r, the c r a e lls in Grace proceeds to discuss the rumoured determination a tou sp eh ad in e g a o s n pa p d o e l i ti a e n al d as little owfhheensihtais emfeetit that he will mises to do his duty, and we will answer for .4 I not lack followers. These are his Grace's words : . at Ministers h e question t o proposefairly th an e d repeal without o f flinching. the c orn-laws. o . rn I a w H s e . p r Ile ? . a i g n r t ic h u e lt Lo ura w l e c r onf i t o l u tu se e . nci it es utii session is not corn-has on the first or second ay o. e . I, for my own part, do not believe it. I cannot correct. believe, upon such authority at least, that such perfidy hthoepe partand t o r f u s t t h t e h that Government n re m c e e n n t t tod report move f o t f thh a en repeal intention of the would or could enter into the mind of man. If, howes er, such should turn out to be the case, all I can say is, that I most sincerely hope that the House of Commons—that re turned for th t e at e i t x v u i s i r l e o i s f t s o t p h u u e t r pose of defending agricultural t t hh interests—willir ,* cI 'P o r e i s e o , I I ok• to the hereditary Peerage of En.. land. ' How far the Duke of Richmond's hope from the r s i t: fi t s e d at by large as w e • e main t tay venture to fore replesentatives of the agricultural constituencies may tel ; that they may, even at the last moment, retrieve the ground from which they have voluntarily re treated, is our earnest wish ; but we look ta the agri bceuljtuuof their own cause. The sentiments expressed by the Duke, we take pride in feeling, will have no novelty for the readers of the Morning Post. That they are now more eloquently expressed, we rejoice ; that they are now put forth fly one holding the highest station and possessing all the strength that is derived from extensive influence and personal popularity, is a happy augury for the cause ; and we should be indeed faint-hearted if we were to doubt the inspiring effect of hi; Grace's speech on the agricultural community.
