The royal carriage was followed by another containing the Marquis of Ormonde, Colonel Buckley, and Colonel Wilde. Her Majesty will remain at the Calle merely to take luncheon with the Noble Duke, awl will return to the Pavilion this evening to dinner. The Princess Royal was taken out for a carriage airing this morning by the Dowager Lady Lyttelton, but the Prince of NValesand the other branches of the Royal Family have re. mained within the Palace during the day, owing to the in clemency of the weather. We had a heavy snow storm here this afternoon. The Earl of Liverpool arrived this morning from Busted Park on a visit to her Majesty, and it is expected that her Majesty will honour his Lordship with a visit in the course of two or three days at Busted Park.

SIR,—I am rather sutprised that no one has drawn public attention (that I am aware ot) to the duty payable on fire insurances. Double the amount is paid to Government as tax to what the companies receive to enable them to pay for the rebuilding of all the houses that are burnt down, clerks' salaries, and all other expenses, "including a remunerating profit for themselves. If all this can be done out of half the duty, surely the other half one would think quite sufficient to be paid as duty, to insure protection to the public. Now there is a surplus revenue, would it not be a suitable time to press it upon the Premier's attention? Should you think with me on this subject, you will please to notice it in some way in your widely. circulated journal, and you will oblige a numerous class of readers, including your obedient servant, Stepney-green, Feb. 12, 1845. J. V. LATE RESCUE FROM DROWNING FATAL COLLIERY ACCIDENT.—As the workers of one of the pits at the Rosehall colliery, near Coatbridge, were de scending the shaft to their employment, on the 31st ult., the rope broke when those descending were supposed to be half way down the shaft, and they nnfortunitely fell to the bottom, and were Glasgow Herald. AT LEITH. We publish with much pleasure the following letter from Mr. George Robins, of London, in reference to this case, the particulars of which we gave in our,paper of Tuesday last. A man had fallen into the Dock at Leith, and had sunk twice, so that all hopes of saving him were at airend, when James Carnie, one of the Custom-house boatmen, bravely leaped into the water, and, at the imminent risk of his own life, rescued the drowning man. The suggestion of our cor respondent we consider a very just and proper one, and shall be happy to take charge of any sums which may be trans mitted to us in behalf of James Carnie : TO THE EDITOR OF THE EDINBURGH ADVERTISER. Covent-garden, Feb. 6, 1845. Sir,—l have just read, in one of our morning news papers a paragraph extracted from your journal, the Edinburgh Adrertiser. It relates to an act of so much bravery and kind feeling, that I think, if you will take the trouble of corroborating this. tale, there would not be found wanting in our metropolis, as well as yours, sym pathy and good feeling enough to induce a little subscription in favour of the intrepid man, Carnie, who so courageously risked his own life to save a low-creature. I feel that it is the duty of all those who possess the means, to encourage such acts of bravery and kind-hearted feeling as you have re presented, to do something that will act as a stimulus on future occasions. It is not enough to read of it and put by the paper, with the frozen compliment of " What a fine fellow," without giving a solitary shilling, as a reminder that the public will not be apathetic on such occasions; something more substantial is required to encourage him at a future period to risk his life, as he evidently has done in this case ; and my sovereign is very much at his service, if you will take charge of it ; but do pray write three or four lines in corro boration of this act of bravery, in order that others who may not yet have read this extract may see it, and do a little to encourage and reward more generally such acts of heroism. —I am, your most obedient servant, GEORGE ROBINS. Messrs. Ransom, the bankers in London, viill•kindly re ceive any contributions. • THE OVERLAND JOURNEY TO INDIA.—The follow ing details of a journey recently performed by. Lieutenant Waghorn prove that a trip to India and back is quite as practical as any of the common continental tours, and we have no doubt that in a short time we shall find it the fashion of the day. Mr. Waghorn left London on the 26th of September; he reached Marseilles on the 4th of October, arrived at Alexandria on the 11th, remained in Egypt eleven days, where he had audiences with the Pacha, left Suez on the 22d, and arrived at Bombay on the 10th of November. His stay at Bombay was 23 days. He left it on the 2d of December—got to guez and Cairo on the 20th, had another audience with the Pacha, left Alexandria on the 23d, was detained at Malta a day and a half, and arrived at the Motherbank on the 9th of January, and landed on the 11th, after performing two days' quarantine. The total absence from London to Bombay and back, including stoppages and the delays abovementioned, was 107 days, or 70 days' only actual travelling. A supplement to the Gazette of Tuesday was pub lished on Thursday, containing the names of Shareholders in the London Joint-stock Bank, occupying 14 pages, and the National Provincial Bank of England, 13 papa. • •• • . - - • IPSWICH, WEDNESDAY —To-dav the half-yearly meeting of this Company was held at the Company's offices, Brook • street, Ipswich, Mr. J. C. Cobbold, Chairman of the Direc tors, presiding. The meeting was also made special for the following purposes :—" For considering the expediency of raising capital for making a branch line to Harwich, from a point ofj unction with the Eastern Union Railway near to Man ningtree, together with a pier or jetty at Harwich, and for authorising and empowering the Directors to adopt mea sures in reference thereto, by the creation of new shares or otherwise ; for considering the expediency of and deter mining upon a junction with the contemplated Colchester Port and Junction Raaway, in the parish of Ardleigh, in the county of Essex; and for authorising and empowering the Directors to subscribe towards its formation." The report stated that nothing has occurred to induce the Directors to doubt the full completion of the line within the time specified. On the contrary, the highly respectable con tractors have promised very great vigour the moment the season opens for more active operations. It then proceeded as follows :—" The land in all parts of the line, where the works are heaviest, is in possession of the Company. You were promised, on this occasion, the statement of accounts should embrace the final settlement of all the costs of your act, but, in this one respect, your Directors, although great progress has been made in settling them, require further time. They have some small payments yet unadjusted, but the ag gregate of the whole will not exceed the sum named in De cember last. Mr. Robert Garrod, and Mr. James Allen Ran some, who were named by you in December last, are re eligible. It was a subject of great congratulation to your Board, and must have been so among yourselves, that the lines to Norwich and to Bury St. Edmund's intended - to Pin yours at Ipswich, should alone, of all thoso projected in 'Suffolk or East Norfolk, have obtained the approval of the Board of Trade. A traffic, already ascertained to be amply remunerative, must by these extensions be greatly increased ; and it may be confidently predicted that few lines in Great Britain can command greater advantages than the Eastern Union Line, both as possessed of present resources, and pro tected against future interference." The total receipts by calls, &c. had amounted to 37,8501., the total payments to 16,2871., leaving a balance in hand of 21,5431. The report was received and adopted and the retiring Di rgctors re-elected. Resolutions were also passed empower ing the Directors to proceed in conformity with the proposi tions contained in the report. RAIL WAY COLLISION. NEwc.irms.oN-Tvrin, Fax. I2.—A collision of trains took place last nigh: on the Brandling Junction Railway, the report of which excited considerable alarm in this town, until it was satis factorily ascertained that no lives were lost. It appears that the eight o'clock train from Gateshead to Sunderland was approaching Felling station, when the speed of the train was slackened to stop at the station; but before the train reached the sta tion a smart shock was felt by the passengers, who were thrown from their seats, and a general rush was made to get out of the carriages, the women screaming, and the men in a state of bewilderment. The line, it seems, is undergoing repair at this part, so that there is onlybne line in operation for a short distance. A long luggage train was coming in the op posite direction from Brockley Whins, and was in the act of leaving the one line and crossing on to the other line, where the repairs are finished. The engine of the luggage train had just got on the other line, when the passenger train ran plump into the waggons next it, which were thrown off the line, piled one above another, and scattered on all sides by the shock. The engine of the passenger train was much broken, there being a large rent through which the fire tumbled on to the ground, and a general cry arose that the engine would burst, which added greatly to the prevailing consternation, every one endeavouring to get as far from it as possible. Had the Sunderland train from Gateshead been half a minute earlier, the two engines would have met, and frightful would have been the consequences. The engine of the luggage train, which has sustained no injury, was immediately sent off to Gateshead to stop all trains leaving, and bring men to assist in clearing the line, the passengers being in the meantime accommodated in the station. In about half an hour afterwards the train ftom Sunderland ar. rived, and as it could not proceed for th• ruins, it was emptied of its passengers, and those from Gateshead get in. This train, with the Gateshead passengers, left the Felling.station at ten minutes is ten o'clock, having been detained upwards of an hour and a half, and then it proceeded at a very slow pace, as it had to pass the York train, and there was also danger of meeting any other train from Brockley Whine. After reaching Brockley Whins, the speed of the train was increased, as there was then no danger of Meeting any other engine between that place and Sunderland, where the passengers were landed in safety, at eleven o'clock. The men were a long time in clearing away the wreck of carriages, and the line was interrupted for several hours. Happily, a few slight bruises comprised the extent of injury sustained by any of the pas. sengers. Much blame is attached to the engineman of the Oates. head train, who says he did not see the led light attached to the luggage-train. However that may be, it was a fortunate circum. stance that he had slackened speed at the station, for otherwise the collision would doubtless have been fatal. HORSE-FLESH SAUSAGES. DANTMOUTII.—The Tories of this town seem to be in jeopardy every hour, in censeauence of Mr. Moffat's spirited ap peal to Parliament, to require justice for himself, and to have proved the Ile ;ality of Mr. Somes's return, while on the other hand, the Liberals confidently anticipate that Mr. Moffat will be successful in his appeal, and ultimately triumph over all the subterfuges that har be twown 1 p liis way by the Tories, to the full, fair, and honourable riprisslAstoo cif this boroneu _, ... Mr. Atcherler, a horse-slaughterer in Sharp's-alley, Cow cross, attended before Sir Peter Laurie at Guildhall, to hear a complaint that was about to be made respecting his esta bliihment by Mr. Lamplough, a chemist, at No. 88, Snow hill, and one of the guardians of the West London Union. Mr. Lamplough had, it appeared, written to Sir Peter on the subject, but the Alderman was unable to interfere, as his ro tation of duty at this office for a week had passed, and would not return for upwards of twenty weeks. Mr. Lamplough, however, finding Sir Peter Laurie was now sitting for Sir Claudius Hunter, repeated his application in person, and Sir Peter requested the attendance of Mr. Atcherler. Mr. Lamplough said that a short time since, perceiving a very offensive smell iu the New Farringdon-street, curiosity induced him to endeavour to trace the cause of it, and he dis covered it proceededfrom the knacker's yard in Sharp's-alley. He found several horses there, some waiting to be slaugh tered, and some dead. As he was leaving the yard a sight presented itself, which excited his disgust, from a suspicion which might or might not be well founded. He saw a quantity of sausage meat brought from Mr. Atcherler's dwelling-house, and remembered that while he was in the yard he heard the click of a sausage-making mill. On Friday last be and his friend again paid a visit to the knacker's yard, and on leaving it they saw two baskets full of sausages going from the same dwelling-house. They followed the man and saw him deliver them at the White Horse Inn, Fetter-lane, where he booked the baskets to go to Brighton. If the horrid suspicion that entered his mind that those sausages were partly made of horse-flesh were well founded, it would partly account for some of the pecu liar diseases that had recently developed themselves in the human frame, and which the faculty had a difficulty in ac counting for otherwise. Sir Peter Laurie asked Mr. Atcherler if it was true that, being a slaughterer of horses, he had a chopping mill for the conversion of horse-flesh into sausages =Mr. Atcherler said he had not. Sir Peter asked if he had a mill ? Mr. Atcherler said he had not. This was a very serious attack upon his character. His house was at the top of the yard, and the dwelling house mentioned did not belong to him, but to Mr. Lans downe. He certainly had a mill, and carried on the busi ness of a maker of saveloys and polonies. With regard to the smell from his premises, he: had the yard scalded out once a week, and it was kept in as good order as any place of the kind in the metropolis. The stench was as likely to come from the premises of some of his neighbours. Sir Peter asked how long Mr. Lansdowne had been his next door neighbour? Mr. Atcherler replied about four years. He did not make sausages, and it was plain, there fore, that Mr. Lamplough did not know the difference be tween a saveloy and a sausage. Sir Peter asked if he ever sold any meat to Mr. Lands downe? Mr. Atcherler said he never did. His neighbour went to market for himself. Their premises and trades were perfectly distinct. Sir Peter supposed they were not unfriendly? Mr. At cherler said they were not. He recollected Mr. Lamplough coming to his yard and talking familiarly with him, but he had no idea that Mr. Lamplough was coming to make a charge against him. He seemed to be ready to swear to anything. Sir Peter observed that Mr. Lamplough had not sworn to anything. • He had made a statement, which he supposed to - be of grave importance to the public. He had stated it as a matter of suspicion only, and it appeared he was under a mistake as to the occupier of the dwelling-house. He had reason to know other persons were labouring under the same mistake, and that an article on the subject would have appeared in print if he had not given Mr. Atcherler this opportunity of explaining. It was rather remarkable that a saveloy-maker should choose premises next to a horse slaughterer. In a recent great distillery case they had heard of a convenient connecting pipe with other premises. He did not suppose there was any such connecting pipe here. Mr. Atcherler replied it was suspicious, and unfortunate for both of them, that they should live so near. There was no connecting pipe. He hoped the guardians paid as much attention to the victuals of the poor as that sent to the folks at Brighton. Mr. Lamplough said the stench from the premises was such as in warm weather to endanger the health of the neighbourhood. Mr. Atcherler, who is a portly, robust man, replied his trade was very wholesome and particularly healthy. When the cholera was so " enraged " a few years ago, nobody hardly died of it in the workhouse adjoining his yard ; and, in fact, people with no appetite came down to his yard in the morning and went home and ate a good breakfast. He ab horred the idea of feeding people on horseflesh. Sir Peter asked if his neighbour's mill was going every day ? Mr. Atcherler said it was, but it did not work at night too. It was a horse-mill. Sir Peter was glad be had afforded him the opportunity of explaining that he had no connexion with the sausage maker ; and wished him good morning. EXCISE INFORMATION.—On Friday last, Mr. G. Watson, of Finkle. street, Kendal, Westmoreland, tobacco manu. facturer, on the information of Mr. William Walton, supervisor of excise of the Lancaster district, was fined in the lowest penalty of 501., the highest one being 9001., for selling a quantity of to bacco which was found highly adulterated with chicory. The eel. sure was made by Mr. Walton, the supervisor. ARUNDEL, THUR'DAY EVENING.—Her Majesty and Prince Albert paid a visit to their Graces the Duke and Duchess of Norfolk, at the Castle, this morning, and partook of a splendid dejeune, served up in the Russian style. The party to meet her Ma jesty was confined to the family only, it being the wish that it should be considered in every way a private affair. Soon after her Majesty's arrival, nearly two o'clock, the Duke and Duchess accompanied her Majesty and Prince Albert through the state apartments of the Castle, and it is in, re than gratifying to observe that both expressed them selves in the highest terms of admiration at the great taste shown by his Grace ;in tact, her Majesty stated explic tly that she had not seen anything equal to the splendour of the whole, more Pstrv i rd i . the library, which is supposed to surpass anything of the " Europe.

Berdamin laanbury Stuart, of -fi t surviving son of Sir 8e14i121111 tUld Lady Han, . On Thursday and Friday, the 30th and 31st ult., at the lonely village of Lammonby, near Greystoke, and about eight miles and-a-half north-west of Penrith, in the county of Cumberland, a respectable jury was impannelled on the inquest held before Mr. W. Carrick, of Brampton, one of the coroners for Cumberland, to investigate the circumstances attending the cruel murder of Sarah Ann Crosby, a fine little girl, aged about seven y.ears and a half, who was burnt to death by her own inotTier, Jane,"the' wife of William Crosby, an industrious husbandman, and keeper of the small public-house known by the sign of the Blue Miller, in the village of Lammonby. The investigation commenced a little after noon on the 30th ult., and was continued till midnight on Friday, when it was adjourned till Monday last, the 10th instant. From the evidence produced on the first and adjourned meetings of the inquest the following facts are deduced : William Crosby, the father of the murdered child, is a labourer in husbandry, and is only at home on the Saturday evenings and Sundays. He has a wife named Jane, and two daughters, namely, Mary and Sarah Ann, aged respectively about twelve and seven years, the only issue of his marriage with his wife. Mrs. Crosby is a woman of most dissolute character, passionate, and greatly addicted to drinking spirituous liquors and taking laudanum in large quantities. The mur dered child was the greater favourite of the father (the mother having poisoned the mind of the elder with indulgences and threatenings), and was in the habit of telling him on Saturday nights what her mother had done during the week; and on that account the mother, from time to time, manifested a most inveterate and inhuman dislike and hatred to her younger child. She frequently most cruelly beat her, and turned the poor child out of doors at bed tim • and kept her out all night, and on several occasions threatened to put an end to the child's existence. In order to carry this barbarous and unnatural resolve into effect, on Tuesday evening, the 28th ult., she made up a large fire in the kitchen of her own house, with the determination of sacrificing her child in the flames prepared by her own hands For reasons only known to this wretched woman herself, she stripped off all the child's clothes and hid them in a hole behind the inner door and in the ash-midden, and having done so took the child by its legs and arms and literally roasted it to death. One side of the face was much burnt and the eye nearly out, and its breast and neck and back were most shockingly burnt. It appears that the child on being held over the fire had turned its head on one side and thrust it forward, and by doing so one side of the face was more burnt than the other, and that she had thrust her breast against the red-hot bar, which accounts for the severe burn on that part of the body. The wretched woman then took the child off the fire, and held her on her knee by the fire side till life was nearly extinct, the little innocent faintly ask ing her other sister for a drink of water. On calling in the neighbours, she said that Sarah Ann (the deceased) had set herself on fire while she (the mother) was absent at a farmhouse about two miles off, and made other incredible excuses. A person was sent to the farm-house to inquire if Jane Crosby had been there that day or evening, when it was ascertained that the tale was a fabrication. Mr. Car rick, the surgeon, was sent for, but on his arrival he found the child in a state beyond the reach of medical aid, and the poor child died about two o'clock next morn ing. On examining the child's shift it was found to be burnt about the neck and back, but the burnt places had been made with a red-hot poker, and the other articles of dress not being visible, suspicion became stronger, especially when the prisoner's former bad conduct was taken into consideration. Richard Weston, one of the witnesses, searched the house, and found the clothes hidden in a hole of the wall behind the inner door. On the first investigation of this horrid murder, the elder girl seemd reluctant to give her evidence freely, alleging that, if she told the truth, she was afraid of her mother, who would ill use her. At the adjourned inquest, she gave her testimony more frankly. Fourteen witnesses were examined; and, the voluminous evidence having been gone through, the Coroner in a lengthened address, explained to the jury the nature of their duty on such a distressing ease. The jury then retired, and shortly afterwards returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder." The wretched woman was committed to Carlisle Gaol, to take her trial at the next assizes, which commence on the 22d inst. This shocking tragedy has given rise to the greatest ex,eltemen\ at Lammonby and the surrounding neighbour. Wod, and, Weed, throughout the whole of Cumberland. MORTALITY in the METROPOLIS. The folloing are the results of " A Table of Mortality in the Metropolis, showing the Number of Deaths from all Causes registered in the Week ending Saturday, the Bth of February, 1845." The Table is issued from the Office of the Registrar-General : Weekly Total. Average 01 Five Years The report minutely detailed the many advantages possessed by the project, and recommended the Pro prietors to empower the Committee, in case it should be subsequently thought advisable, to extend the expendi ture.beyond 10s. per share, the original sum specified in the prospectus of the Company. The report having been adopted, The CHAIRMAN proposed to read a memorial to the Board of Trade on the subject of the scheme, but Mr.; Alderman COPELAND objected to it, and The CHAIRMAN acceded to the wish of the worthy Alderman, and abstained from reading the document. Mr. MATHESON, M.P., who expressed himself strongly in favour of the Company, moved the first resolution, directing the Committee of Management to remove the ninth clause of the subscribers agreement, limiting the expenditure to 10s. per share, and authorising them to appropriate the funds already paid up to. . any expenses which might be incurred in applying to tha Legislature for an Act of Parliament sanctioning the project. Mr. CHAPMAN - seconded the - motton. Mr. HUNT protested against any additional expendi ture, beyond the 10s. per share, because he had pur chased largely, on.the understanding that the prelimi nary expenses were not to exneed that sum. He, there fore, should enter a public protest against the proposition. The CHAIRMAN asked the Hon. Proprietor if he in tended to move an amendment ? _ _ Mr. HUNT replied in the negative. He should simply content himself by protesting against the additional ex peuditure, because he did not think it was acting fairly with the shareholders. One of the Committee offered to purchase the Hon. proposer's stock at 2/. per share. Mr. HUNT said he should be a considerable loser if he sold them for that price. Mr. NONCE (of Norwich)—Well, then, I will give you 2/. :is. for them.—(Laughter.) The CHAIRMAN—Pray, gentlemen, don't let us con vert our meeting into a stock exchange. s the Hon. Proprietor going to move an amendment or not? Mr. HUNT—I can't say that I am. I only protest against any further outlay. MV. CHAPMAN was sure there was not another gentle man present who did not fully concur in the terms of the resolution. The Hon. Proprietor appeared to make a personal matter of the loss of his 10s. per share. Mr. HUNT—I bought them at a large premium. Mr. CHAPMAN—No doubt the Hon Proprietor did; but a lair and liberal offer had been made to him, and why did he refuse it ? It would place him in the same pesition now as when he purchased the stock with his eyes open. He trusted, therefore, the Hon. Proprietor would either accept the offer of 21. 55., or consent to withdraw his protest. Mr. HUNT preferred adopting the latter course, and the resolution was carried unanimously. Mr. CROMBY, in moving a vote of thanks to the Pro visional Committee for their past exertions, passed a very warm euiogium upon them for the zeal and attention they had paid to the interests of the Company. He only detained the meeting to relate to them the feeling enter tained in Scotland on the subject of the line. In that part of the kingdom they were all favourable to the pro ject, and the reason was obvious—it would be a great advantage to Scotland. Why at present it took him to come to London from Aberdeen, the town in which he resided, upwards of four-and thirty hours, and then he had to be out of bed and travel ling two nights. Now, if their line was carried, they would be able to leave Edinburgh at eight o'clock in the morning and reach London by eight o'clock the same evening. It was a wonderful improvement—(Cheers)— and he would defy any company to show how this could possibly be effected without the aid of the Direct Northern Rad way.--(1-rear0 Mr. REnswAr seconded the resolution, which was carried by acclamation. . The CNAIERMAN, in acknowledging the compliment, said the Committee felt that they deserved the confidence of the Shareholders, or they would not have asked them to 'go on with the undertaking. They had done their best to promote the interests of the Company, and with their continued support they had no doubt success would at tend them hi a Committee of the house of Commons. The meeting, which was very numerously attended, and occupied about three-quarters of an hour, then broke"hp. THE SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY TO. THE PROPRIETORS OF THE SOUTH-EASTERN RAIL- WAY COMPANY. Gentlemen,—Many of you may have observed tha, last night, in the House of Commons, an Hon. Member quoted a paragraph from the Economist newspaper, in which the Railway Department of the Board of Trade is charged with having reported " in favour of nearly all your projected undertakings, although the line was con sidered entirely put of court by its omission of standing or d e rs." And next, that the intention was improperly , communicated to me, and that I made use of the infor mation for stock-jobbing purchases, and bought several hundred South-Eastern shares. I feel it incumbent upon me to notice this accusa tion ; for though Sir James Graham, with a kindness which deserves my most grateful thanks, vindicated my character in a way which may seem - to you to render unnecessary any further explanation, yet I cannot con sent that you should found your opinion of my per sonal honour upon the judgment of any individual, however qualified to judge or high in character and station. I beg you will permit me to state both what I did, and my reasons. Early in the month of November I entered fully upon the duties of my situation as manager of your railway. As a matter of course I felt the propriety of having some stake •in the concern, but was desirous of waiting a short time to enable me to judge whether I could do so without much risk, and also whether, among the changes in the direction then going on, I could con sider my own position as secure. In December, all the new schemes being promulgated, I became satisfied on both points. It is true that part of our plans were not deposited strictly in time, but the reception of a deputation a week afterwards by Lord Dalhousie, implied that this omission was not considered as placing the South-Eastern Company " entirely out of court." The reasons which induced me to choose a particular moment to purchase were three :—the anticipated dis tribution of the North French shares allotted rateably to the South-Eastern Proprietors ; the high probability, approaching almost to certainty, of carrying some of our schemes ; and the fair chance of complete success. The failure of all would not have been ruinous, while the success of any one part would have been remunerative. No prudent man would have purchased without in quiry, or would have waited until these chances of profit had passed. Accordingly, about Christmas, I purchased 250 New South-Eastern shares for 2,7501 . , and these were paid for by the sale of an equivalent amount of stock in the Newcastle and Darlington, the Great North of England, and the York and North Midland Railways. This is the whole amount of my interest direct or indirect in the South-Eastern Railway—and I may add that none of my relatives ever possessed a single share in it. This purchase entitled me to a certain number of North French shares, which I lost in consequence of some technical decision of the Stock Exchange; and my broker, fearing a second disappointment wht n the opinion of the Board of Trade became known and South-Eastern shares rose in value, very properly posted the usual notice in my name, and compelled the seller to complete his contract. I do not hold, except in a foreign railway, any shares or scrip in any name but my own, nor h as any other person an interest in - those which I hold. I have shares in the Great North of England Railway to the value of 1,5001., and in the York and North Midland Railway to the value of 3,0001. I never directly or indirectly had any interest in any line except the South-Eastern Itiiilway, affected by the recent decisions of the Board of Trade. I do not possess, with the exceptions just named, any interest, direct or indirect, in any line which their future decisions may affect. Lord Dalb nisie has stated, in the House of Lords, that to-morrow the Report of the Board of Trade on the South-Eastern scheme will be made public. You will then be in a position to judge whether their opinion is based upon a consideration of what is for the public good, or upon corrupt private motives—you will judge, too, whether the framers of the schemes had reason upon the real merits of the case to be sanguine of success. I have now laid open to you my private affairs, and I am prepared to do so to any further extent you may desire. I am ' , aware that a lurking sus picion may exist that I have operated through the medium of other persons. As a negative cannot be proved, I can only meet such a suspicion by the most solemn denial ; and I call upon every person capable of contradicting this denial, to come forward and state every circumstance within his knowledge which would justify such a suspicion. My statement is now before you, and it is for you to judge whether my conduct has been that of a man of honesty and prudence, who has nothing to fear, no thing to conceal, and nothing of which he has any just cause to be ashamed. I am, gentlemen, your faithful servant, WILLIAM O'BRIEN. South-Eastern Railway-office, London, Feb. 12, 1845. CAUSES OF DEATH.

LEMAITRE.—This eminent actor, while en route front Paris to London to fulfil his engagement at the St. James's Theatre, where he is announced to appear on Monday next, met with an accident from which his escape with life was most miraculous and providential. When about a league from Boulougne the horses of the carriage in which he was travelling took fright, when descending a precipitous hill from the negligence of the postilion the carriage was overturned with tremendous violence, and one of the horses killed on the spot, but fortunately M. F. Lemaitre, with the exception of being severely cut and bruised, escaped without any serious injury. Since his arrival in London, M. Lemaitre has been attended by Dr. Willey, through whose judicious treatment there is no doubt he will be enabled to fulfil his engagement. The works on the Brighton, Lewes, and Hastings Railway are progressing very rapidly. Fahner tunnel, when com pleted, will be about six hundred yards through; a shaft has been sunk at the summit of the hill, nearly midway in the tunnel; and at the bottom of the shaft, diverging east and west, openings of about eight feet square have been made to a considerable distance. To the east, a length of about three hundred and fifty feet has been already reached; but in the western direction the progress has not been quite so rapid, in consequence of the greater hardness of the chalk. Night and day gangs are constantly at work, and not a moment is Wet. When the weather is more favourable, a great additional number of hands will be employed. The line has been commenced at the East ings end, which augurs well for its speedy completion.--)frighten Gazette.
