At a SPECIAL MEETING of the PROVISIONAL COMMIT TEE, held this day, it was resolved That, being advised that serious objections are likely to be raised in Parliament against that part of the scheme of the Association re lating to Life Assurance, as involving the principle of a Tontine, the Committee, therefore, deem it expedient to abandon that part of their original plan for raising the capital of the Association. That the capital be raised by the issue of 3,000 shares of 1001. each, not subject to a contingency upon life, and that the profits of the Association be divided annually. That those subscribers who have paid their deposits upon the plan originally announced, may, on or before Monday, the 24th inst., re ceive back the same, without deduction, upon application at the Office, and those who are desirous of transferring their subscription to the present scheme, are requested to signify the same on or before that day. That applications for the unappropriated shares will be received until Monday, the 24th March inst., when the same will be forth with allotted. Prospectuses may be obtained and plans may ho seen on applica tion at the Offices, No. 30, Bucklersbury ;- and of the solicitors, Messrs. Bischoff and Cox, 19, Coleman-street.

The Provisional Committee of the Paris and Lyons Railway Com pany having ascertained that it is the intention of the French Govern ment to lease the line to a company able and willing to reimburse the State for all expenditure hitherto incurred, and to undertake all flu ffier outlay which may be required for the entire construction of the line, have determined upon Increasing the capital to the full amount necessary for this purpose. In conthnnity with the terms of sub scription contained in the circular of the 10th August last, which con templated such a contingency, they have resolved upon offering to the Shareholders Two New Shares for every Old Share, sub ject to all the liabilities of increase or diminution hereafter, as in the former case, and subject also to any further call which may be found necessary. All Shareholders who may wish to avail themselves of this option are requested to apply at the office, and to produce the original receipts, between Tuesday, 11th, and Saturday, 22d inst. Notice Is hereby given, that all parties not applying within the pre scribed time will be considered to have waived their claim to the ad ditional shares, which will be otherwise appropriated.

EXTRACT from the REPORT of the RAILWAY DE PARTMENT of the BOARD of TRADE, on the Schemes for EXTENDING RAILWAY COM 3IUNICATION in the COUNTIES of NORFOLK and SUFFOLK. Ordered by the House of Commons to be printed, 4th March, 1245. "With respect to the London and Norwich Direct Railway scheme, an inspection of the map will show that it does not fully accommo date even the thinly-peopled district through which it passes. It goes through Bury, but the convenience of the smaller towns between Bury and Stansted is sacrificed to obtain a short line. We are con vinced that the through-traffic will not, in this case, be suffich nt to maintain the railway ; and we believe that both the through and local traffic must be called into action to ensure a moderate return on the outlay. "It is necessary, in this part of our report, to advert:to a railway sailed ' The Chelmsford and Bury Railway,' projected but not brought before Parliament, the plan, and section, and traffic tables of which have been submitted to the Board of Trade. This railway appears to us to accommodate a more populous district than that in tended to be traversed by - the London and Norwich Direct Railway. Its section shows that it may be done at a moderate cost; there is a strong local feeling in its favour, evinced by the memorials which have been received by the Board of Trade from the inhabitants of Braintree. Halstead, Sudbury, and other places between Chelms ford and Bury, who are of opinion, that if the direct line be sane tioned by Parliament, they will be debarred from all chance of being at a future time placed on a line of railway ; moreover, its promoters allege that even as to distance, It gives as short a communication to London from Bury as does the London and Norwich direct line. However, while speaking thus of the Bury and Chelmsford scheme, we must guard ourselves against implying that we have formed an opinion on its merits or demerits, or to whether or not it is required by the district. We now only advert to the scheme in order to show that, supposing a direct and short line of railway between Bury and London were required, # line alleged to bo as direct and as short may be formed, which, at the same time, will accommodate a more extensive population. And, further, that as the London and Nor wich direct line traverses a district but thinly inhabited; that as-it does not even afford the best accommodation to this district; that as the traffic which might come upon it, supposing the Ipswich and Norwich extension line were made would not be sufficient to support it ; and that even if it were, required, an equally, if not more useful line might be found, we are of opinion that there are public reasons whirh ought to he decisive against it."

This Railway will establish a most desirable line of cominunleatiou 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 Whitchurch, Andover, and Salisbury, to Yeovil. By whichmeans the connexion between the East and West Coasts of England will be complete. A further and most important feature of the undertaking is, that by using the line of the South Western Railway from 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 80 miles, an t 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 will form a medium of communication with a greater aggregate of wealthy, populous, and important places. By it, Salisbury, Sterborne, Yeovil, Bath and Bristol, Bradford, Trowbridge, Ironic, Guildford, Farnham, Basingstoke, Whitchureh, Andover, Weyhill with-its extensive fair, Shaftesbury, Milborne Port, Stalbrldgc, and Ilehester, with the numerous smaller towns and villages in their vicinity, will be brought into immediate connexion with each other, 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 hom ac tual surveys, admit of the construction of the Railway at a moderate cost. The portions yet to be fcrtned 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.

THE CASE OF THE BRAVE MAN CARNIE, WHO SAVED A FELLOW-CREATURE'S LIFE AT LEITH, WHO MUST HAVE PERISHED BUT FOR HIS INTREPIDITY. We copy a few introductory remarks which we find in the Army and Navy Register of last Saturday, omitting the let ters to which they refer, because we have already had the gra tification of being, rst in the field to give them publicity. The public, we lament to find, have responded in a very inade quate manner to this strong claim-51. only has been sub scribed, and Mr. Robins (whose perseverance is not yet sa tisfied) has, it should seem, been to the Directors of the Royal Humane Society, and got from them a promise of the Humane Silver Medal, which will be more highly prized by Carnie than the poor little subscription about to be forwarded to him : " The following letters appeared in the Morning Post, of Monday last, and we have great satisfaction in giving them a place in our columns, as the first reflects great credit on Mr. George Robins, the celebrated auctioneer, for the warm interest he has taken in the cause of James Carnie ; and the second contains the character of an excellent specimen of that singular and clannish race known by the designation of Newhaven fishermen, from the pen of their kind pastor, the Rev. James Fairbairn, minister of Newhaven. The reason advanced by the worthy clergyman to overcome the scruples ofJames Carnie, and induce him to agree to accept a reward for performing a good action, affords evidence that he is ad mirably adapted for the duty he has undertaken for the re ligious and moral welfare of the original class of society amongst whom he is located. We trust the object so praise worthily entered upon from the best of motives by Mr. George Robins, and so ably seconded by the Rev. James Fairbairn, will be responded to on this side the Tweed, and that a handsome sum will be raised to present a purse to James Carnie, and some tangible memorial to descend as an heirloom in his respected family. Those only who are ac quainted with the character of Newhaven fishermen, can form any idea of the value of a gift to any of the members of their body for a good action, and the veneration in which a piece of silver plate, presented to one of them, would be held by the whole patriarchal and interesting race—so well known to all who have visited Edinburgh, the clean and picturesque dress of their wives and daughters rendering them objects of interest to strangers in the metropolis of Scotland." P.S. We omit the letters, because we have already inserted them ten days since. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S.—YESTERDAY. CHESTER CUP. There was a slight improvement in the betting on this race, but no striking change in the quotations. We need only observe, therefore, that Cataract and Semiseria were in fair demand, and so nearly level that two sovereigns were taken for the choice of the horse in an even bet of four hun dred pounds. The Era was also in favour, and Obscurity, albeit 22 to 1 was offered agst in one quarter, ave raged 18 to 1 until near the close, and was finally backed for a small sum at 16 to I. Zanoni and Winesour were not in request, and of the newly-made favourite Yheo mun-ac-Knuck, nothing was said to fix a price. The mar ket prices at the break-up were as follows 8 to 1 agst the three yrs old 11 to 1 agst Mr. W. Scott's Cataract 12 to 1 agst Mr. Jaques's Semiseria 15 to 1 agst Mr. A.

RAILWAY SPEED.-THE GREAT WESTERN RAlL waT.—The muck trains commenced running yesterday on the Great Western hallway. The journey from Exeter to Lond. n, 194 nines, was performed in tour hours and fifty-three minutes, up to the ticket platform, and the passengers had alighted in the Paddington station within the prescribed time of five hours. The down-train reached Bristol, 1181 miles, in less than three hours, after stopping ten minutes at Swindon, and calling at Dideot end Bath. The run ning time is calculated at fifty miles an hour, and we are infOrmed that the whole journey was performed with eekeilint exactitude is to time.

THE EEL AND THE ANCHOR.--A curious but not a very uncommon discovery was made in Hamoaze last week. The moorings lately occupied by the Actaeon, 26, off St. John's Leke were examined for the purpose of repairing their detects, when, on heav ing up the anchor, a small hole was perceived in the stock on the surface, which on a close inspection was seen to be tenanted. The anchor was brought on shore for inspection, and on driving off the hoops and taking the stock apart, out came a tine black congor eel, above four feet in length, and weighing above ten pounds. lie must have entered when very young, as the hole on the outside would not admit one-half his size, and although he could not turn in his house, yet he must by some means have lived well as he was remarkably fine and fat.

THE LATE MYSTERIOUS CASE OF POISONING AT CAMBERWELL Yesterday George May, shopman to the late Mr. Mon tague, who, it will be recollected, had, with Mrs. Montague, been poisoned at Camberwell on the 11th of last month, was placed in the felons' dock, before Mr. Henry, at Lambeth Police -court, on the following charge, as entered inthe police sheet :—" For feloniously appropriating to his own use various sums of money received by him for and on account of his late master ; also with forging the name of the deceased to various receipts in the parish of St. Giles, Camberwell." Mr. Dodd, the vestry-clerk of Camberwell, attended to prosecute on behalf of the heir-at-law to the late Mr. Montague ; and Mr. Humphries appeared on behalf of the prisoner. _ Mr. Dodd briefly alluded to the melancholy circumstances which led to the apprehension of the prisoner, and said that since the mysterious death of Mr. and Mrs. Montague, their books and accounts had been examined, and it was found that the prisoner, who had been their shopman and confiden tial servant, had received various sums of money on account of his master, of which he had made no entry in the books kept for that purpose ; and coupling this fact with the in formation which had been obtained from the customers them selves, the nephew of Mr. Montague, who is next of kin, deemed it advisable to give him into custody on the charge of embezzlement and forgery. Evidence was then adduced as to certain. declarations of the prisoner to police-inspector Campbell, with respect to the accounts, and of the receipt of moneys, of which no entry had been made. Mr. Humphries observed that en the inquest holden after the melancholy affair, on the bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Mon tague, the prisoner had been examined for hours, and, though not upon oath, his deposition had been taken down touching these very accounts, with the greatest minuteness. He com plained that it was an indirect attempt to connect the pri soner with a charge of murder. Mr. HENRY said he had nothing to do with such irregu larities, and that he should countenance no more inferential imputations. He was of opinion, however, that there were grounds for remand, and he asked what was the total amount of the alleged embezzlement ? Mr. Dodd replied from 50/. to 100/., and added that he would be able to show on a future occasion that the prisoner had represented himself on many occasions as the nephew of the deceased. The prisoner was remanded to a future day, and Mr. Henry consented to take good bail for his appearance. CAMBRIDGE AND LINCOLN RAILWAY. A meeting of shareholders in the above line was held yes terday, at the George and Vulture Tavern, Cornhill, under rather singular circumstances. On Friday last, an adver tisement appeared in a morning paper, calling a meeting of shareholders at the above house to take into consideration the condition of the company in consequence of the peculiar difficulties in which it was unexpectedly placed, and) t Saturday another advertisement appeared, signed byi't secretary, denouncing the former notice as a stock-jobbing hoax, and stating that the company were in no difficulties, the Bill having been read a first time and standing for a second reading on Monday. Yesterday morning Alderman Vickers (of Sheffield), the projector of • the line, Issued a air• eular, caking on the shareholders to assemble at Ike, ap pointed place, as "it is expedient either to drive the oppo nents of the line into the pit they have dug for the promoters, or, if they do not attend, to place such a resolution before the public as will show this line to be beyond a doubt of first rate public and private value." At two o'clock, there being about twenty shareholders present, E. S. Kennedy, Esq., was called to the chair. Mr. VICKERS said, on Friday last his attention was called to the advertisement convening this meeting, and he hastened to the solicitors of the line, begging them not to contradict it, but to let it take place, and see if any one dared to come forward. He regretted that that course had not been fol- lowed. On Saturday, he ascertained that n• room had been engaged by their opponents, and therefore he engaged it himself, determined that, as the meeting had been called, it should take place. J. STANIFORTII, Esq., solicitor to the Goole line, moved, and Mr.VicKEas seconded, a resolution—" That this meeting express its strongest disapprobatiln of the unworthy means used by the anonymous writers ofthe advertisement to depre ciate the property of the shareholders in the Cambridge and Lincoln Railway by such calumnious and foul reports; and that they deem such conduct most disgraceful and dishonour able to the character of Englishmen ; and that this meet ing express their strong belief in the excellency of the pro jected railway, and recommend it to the, continued support of the shareholders, and the' favourable consideration of the public at large." The resolution was unanimously carried. Mr. IVALmisLEy then moved,. and Captain Cousnes, for merly- harbour-mortar of London, seconded a resolution re commending the shareholders to support the extension lines, the Lincoln, Leeds, and York direct, and the Goole, Don caster, Manchester, and Sheffield Junction, as tending with this line to ensure vtobteedputtoblicthaecheehaap supinnapnl,yitohfecmotteelst;inwgbiticdh.. was Thankselso carried.bebe i ng joumed.
