" Gentlemen,—Sbaring as we do most fully with your.: selves in the disappnintment produced by the recent check experienced in the first attempt to lay the cable across the Atlantic, we cannot, nevertheless, as Americans, omit to leave in England some record of the many pleas ing recollections and feelings which have been evoked by sojourning with our brethren on this side of the Atlantic. "To yourselves we would express our admiration of the earnestness of purpose and rectitude of in . entie n with which you appear to us to be animated. "Towards your countrymen. whose kindness and hos pitality during our stay in England has been so un bounded and so cordial as to win entirely the respect of ourselves and the officers under our respective commands, we entertain the warmest sentiment., and we would de sire to convey to them our best acknowledgments. "We would 'especially also, and in the most hearty manner, make mention of the very high esteem and re gard which the constant and agreeable intercourse we have bad with Captain Wainwright, Mater-Commander Noddall, Lieutenant Dayman, and all the officers of her Majtsty's navy engaged in this service has caused us to feel for them, and the great respect we feel in contem plating their talent and ability, and the never tiring clergy they have severally displayed in forwarding the work we have been engaged. in. Their frank and cordial co-operation has b. en greatly instru mental in making the endeavour to establish an Atlan tic telegraph that which it really should be—a great international effort. "In respect to Lieut. Dayman, it is dua that in addi tion we should make special mention of the very great advantage that has been derived to the enterprise by the careful and admirable manner in which his labour of making the soundings and running the circle sailing line across the Atlantic has been performed. " We can only, in conclusion, express our most earnest and cordial hope that your great work, the perfect prac ticability of which (in spite of the temporary check you have experienced) is now fully established, will be com pletely successful whenever your next attempt is made. —We remain, gentlemen, your obedient servants, "JOSHUA R.

RAILWAY INTELLIQENCE. GREAT NORTHERN. The committee of shareholders appointed at the half yearly meeting of the company on the 12th of March have issued their report. It is signed by Messrs. C. F. Giesler, chairman, Wm. Maline, and E. T. Waters. They state that they bad received every assistance which the officers of the company had it in their power to give, bosh as regarded furnishing accounts and the straight. forward manner in which they gave their evidence. These remarks apply not only to those connected with King's-cross, but all the stations on the line visited by the committee. The Redpath frauds are reported on by the committee as follows : " In consequence of the arrangement iu 1846 for the constitution of the Great Northern Railway Company, by joining two projected companies fighting for the bill to autLoriae a line of railway from London to York, it was agreed that the secretaries of the two companies should be retained ; that Mr. Mowatt should continue the office of secretary, and Mr. Clark should undertake that of regis trar. Shortly afterwards Leopold Redpath was engaged as chief clerk in the registration department under Mr. Clark. It appears from the examination of the registers that the first fraud of 20)1. was committed between Feb ruary and August, 1818. The amount increased half yearly, until in August, 1850, it had reached the sum of 16,875/. At this period, the shares being all paid up or forfeited for non-payment of calls, the accountant ap plied to the registration department for a statement of the capital to adjust the accounts. In answer to the applica tion, he received an answer from Redpatb, fixing the amount at 4,808,2!51. ; and upon this he adjusted' his account by the short memorandum furnished by Redpath, eithout comparing his books with the registers. This amount was increased in December, 1852, by a transfer of 212/. 10s. preference stock the original stock. making the amount 4,808,4351. 15. If at this period, or any other subsequent date, the registers had been compared with the accountant's books, the frauds must have bee's discovered, inasmuch as the register presented to the shareholders for sealing at the half-yearly meetings did not agree with the books of the company, bat this was never done. As the capital in creased by the creation of the various preference stocks, the frauds extended to them, and also to the guaranteed East Lincolnshire stock ; having thus increased half-yearly, as is shown by the examination of the registration, until the fraudulent stock issued by Redpath amounted to 219,t321. 10s. This loss has been increase I by 21,294/. 6s. 9 1 . for payment of the dividends on the fraudulent stock, making a total of 240,931 1 . 163. 91. " In August, 1854, it appears that the warrants for divi dends which had been paid by the bankers exceeded in amount the sum due on the various filli,cks of the company, This fact was communicated to the aeditors by the ac countant, notwithstanding which the zegisters were not checked, but a communication was ma le to Redpath on the subject. who retorted upon the accountant that the cause lay with him ; and still the auditors issued the half yearly certificate under their hands of the correctness of the accounts, althomee thus warned that such was not the case. The reason assigned by one of them was, he thought it might create unnecessary alarm' if mentioned to the shareholders. _ _ "The accountant had been aware of a discrepancy in August 1854, but it was not until April, 1855, that it was made known to the secretary, although he signed and isssued the dividend warrants to the shareholders. " The mode of proceeding was this :—" The warrants having boon prepared in the registrar's department were sant to the secretary in bundles, without a list or certiQ cate, who signed them without any,examination by himself or any of his staff, and without noting ev,n the amount, so that had he been required to state on the following day what sums he had drawn from the banker there was no record to give the information. The accountant states that there were no means of discovering an over-issue, as there was no check until the draughts we paid and returned by the banker. The auditors declare that it Was no part of their duty to audit either the registers or the dividend warrants until the latter were paid and came back to the Secouutantas office. The manner of issuing transfers was as follows :-- "It was the duty of the registrar to prep tre the transfer and sign the same, lent this was not valid until counter signed by the secretary. For this purpose a stamp was adopted, but it appears that this stamp was not kept under the control of the secretary, although it represented his signature, and the deed was of no value until this was applied. The stamp was placed in the registration office, and was used by any of the clerks as a mere matter of coulee, the secretary knowing nothing of the matter, although it represented his signature, and was evidently intended as a check on the registrar; and thus this vast property was left at the mercy of the man who bets eyed his trust. " Thus it appears thetas. "1. No committee of directors had any supervision over this important department, nor did they (the direc tors), individually or otherwise, examine or cause any ex amination to insure that the proper checks were ntained. " When Redpath became registrar the whole duties of the office were left to him and his clerks, without super vision or check of any kind. "3. The auditors, although they were aware in 1854 that payments were made in accordance with the amonn due on dividends, continued to sign the accounts issued to the shareholders, declaring them to be correct. "The secretary signed warrants for payments for large sums, not knowing even the amount for which he was issuing those warrants, and without instituting any ex amination or check of any description ; nor was the amount upon which dividends were issued ever compared with the authorised capital upon which they were due. " 5. As the accountant had no list of the warrants issued he only knew the amount of those which hal been paid by the bankers, either by the pass-book or the cancelled warrants returned after payment." With regard to the balance sheet for the half-year ending December 31, 1356, the committee state they believe that it eitbibits a sound financial position, that the large amount of cash in hand bearing interest will be viewed with satisfaction, that the debts of the company are good, and that the over-paymenti of div Vend, amounting to 9,3621., are to be written off. A loss woul I accrue of 15,845/. if the shares held by the company in other lines were realiz-d at the market value. In the examination of the disbursements on capital account it was found that many items placed to capital account appeased to belong to revenue, the number being considerable, and many of them small in amount. In objecting to a half year's account of the engineer's department, amounting to 10,6031 . the commiatee found items to the amount of 6,8451. which they consider as belonging to revenue. Tney state that sufficient has been seen to prove that so long as the capital account is left open items of every description are carried to it at the option of the directors nominally, but really by the servants of the company ; this swells the apparent profits, and thus the shareholders are kept in ignorance of the real amount of the revenue of the company. As a general rule the committee are of opinion that on all completed lines the capital account should be closed, and every expenditure on those lines should be borne by revenue. The committee consider that the passenger traffic is well managed on the Great Norther n, and that thffieoi fares n Y are as good as on other lines , a nd general! su_ The committee recommend that all t ei he fu nd as financeof the company should be under the su p typo f w committee, and all checks be si g ned by odirectors.

I have much pleasure in adding to the above named reports a copy of a very gratifying letter, re ceived by the directors this morning, from the com manders of the American .hips engaged in this service, which will show that; although a present check to operations has temporarily postponed the successful laying of the cable, yet, at all events, the first fruits of the great work have already appeared in the form of an extension of mutual respect and kindly feeling between the two nations engaged in its accomplishment.

TBE GREAT GENERAL CODRINGTON. (From the Times.) Sir William Coclrington is appointed to the com mand of—the Prince of Wales. The " Court Circular" announces that this distinguished Gene ral has gone to Konigswinter, on the Rhine, to be in attendance on the youthful Prince. The public will perhaps, in these times of war and tumult, have anticipated other commands for the great Crimean soldier,—not more honourable, of course, but perhaps more arduous. We will not believe that his youthful Royal Highness really requires a first-rate General to manage him. He is, from everything we have been able to hear, a most good natured, amiable -young Prince, endowed with a sweetness of disposition which softens down all the siffness of rank, and endears him to all who are placed around him. We allow that sixteen is a trying age ; it is the age when manhood first dawns, and life begins to open out with its new impulses and activities. Sixteen is, indeed, pro nounced by the authorities of the drawing-room to be an intolerable age. Mothers, aunts, and sisters fear sixteen, and resign themselves meekly to the approach of a period of trial. Sixteen puts the schoolmaster on his mettle, and keeps his nerves and courage braced, ready for the fight. We do not underrate the difficulties of its management and proper control. Still, even at its worst, "sixteen" might have Leen controlled by somebody who had not blown up Sebastopol, and, softened as it is, if not quite subdued, by Royal rank and the best of dispositions in the present case, it would most pro bably have yielded to the tutorial guidance of a quiet, stoacious civilian, who had never brandished a sword, or sent battalions to mortal strife. Even clergymen have been known to undertake the task of superintending our young Princes, so peaceful an occupation has it been thought, and so little con nected with the art of war. Some rather less formid abh and less co:on - landing personage, then, than Lieut.-General Codrington,K.C, 8., Grand ross of the Sardin;an Order, Companion of the Legion of Honour, of the Order of the Medjidie, &c., and late General of the English Forces iu the Crimea, could have directed the young Prince's lour up the Rhine, could have pointed out to him the principal towns and castles, and conducted him to the best hotels. The General, we observe, has crone to Konigs winter,' doubtless to be in time to head the arduous ascent of the Drachenfels, which his Royal Highness has resolved upon.. We do 'not say that a great commander might not be of service in this under taking ; we know from our own experience that it is not wholly devoid of difficulties. The - race of donkeys is not always to be depended on; some tunes a humour of disobedience comes over them, an inclination to do anything but facilitate your progress, a determination in the tribe to congregate in corners, with their riders upon there, and block up their own pathway. Some address is required to untie these Gordian knots, and no ascent, we are quite sure, wss ever made in this world—not even an txsoent of twenty minutes—which did not task iu some degree the virtue of patience. Still, a less di tinguished General than Sir William Codrington could restore marching order on such occasions, and lead the way successfully up these stupendous heights. It is true that terrific legends and tradi tions of war hover round the top, and the story of the awful combat between Siegfreid and the Dra gon might come suitably from military lips. But, whatever may have been the horrors of the past, the present view from the top of the Drachenfels is eminently peaceful, exhibidug the am:)le reaches of a magnificent river, flowing betwe n cornfields and vineyards. And the same may be said of the whole of the Rhine ; it is an eminently peace ful river now ; with the exception of Ehrenbreit stein, its fox tresses belong to the past ; its present is an era of high cultivation and adornment, grapes and gardens, s'eamers and hotels. The decli vities of the banks exhibit the triumphs of spade labour, by which not a foot of the invalu able slope, with its - precious soutLern aspect and sunshine, is lost to the ' husbandman. The Prince would not, probably, look for much in struction in the art of war from the monuments of the old medisev tl robbers who sallied forth to levy blackmail upon merchant ves , els. These picturesque ruins only heighten the luxurious peacefulness of the scene, and probably Sir W. Codrington will be the last person to " improve the occasion," like Dugald Dalgetty, as he passes them, into a lecture l upon the science of war to his Royal pupil. H be the first to yield to the triumphant peacefulness of the scene, t ) wave war with its terrors aside, v, dfrential convert himself into the iale " " w hat need of companion of future Royalty.geli such a mighty warrior at all, an d Then,hy enlist the plume in "adadsienrgvihcoerprs" of a Crimean Generals the We must frankly confess that this appears rather a "drop" for G en.

When th e late Arc nupon g of the Court Circular, " to attend trice his Archbishop of Canterbury was raised from the position of a pri vate clergyman to that of &shop of London, an old peer asked what the qualifications of the fortunate accomplishments,hesi tated, t a talked aboutscut theologicalholars h rz c a . un known were.

The old peer was immediately satisfied. "Oh, if he managed Abercorn he could manage anybody, or any dio cess." Here is a rise from the management of one to the management of many. Sir Win. Codrington reverses the process. He rises from the government of many to that of one. Ho has prepared himself , 9 247 .04g11-."

THE DIVORCE BILT, A ND THE AMEND MEIVTS PROPOSED TN THE LORDS. Most of our readers will have been grievously i w ca i t referent© i separate cllis e perplexed by the report s o f th e discussions in both it , ) u s , s eosr t o f P s a p r e l a i a k m t e e n c t h , the de t s of the Divorce Bill in committee of the whole house,' and on the last stage of the Bill in the House of Lords, on the question of agree'ng to .the amend ments of the Commons. With the view of throw ing some light on the matter, and dealing away the uncertainty which must have clouded the minds of persons unaccustomed to the very peculiar forms of Parliamentary procedure, we gave on Saturday a copious abstract of the Divorce Bill, in its last amended form. It is probable, however, that the - report of the debate on Monday night in the Homo of Lords will again have mystified the subject, and we therefore proceed very succinctly to explain, on the authority of the official "minutes" of the House of Peers, what was actually done by the'r Lordships on Monday evening. First of al, Lord Redesdale made an attempt to shelve the Bill by moving to take the amendments of the Cominons into consideration six months hence ; but his mo tion to that effect was negatived by a majority of 46 to 44 votes, proxies not being called for. On referring to the clauses of the Bill, Lord Granville gave up the jurisdic' ion in cases of divorce conferred by the buss of Commons on courts of quarter sessions, and in this case, of course, no di vision occurred. On clause 25 Lord St. Leonard's moved to disagree with the amendment of the Com mom .assigning as one reason for divorce "adul t -ry committed" (by the husband) " in the conjugal residence ;" and on the question " whether to agree" (i.e. to the amendments of the Commons), the " Contents" were 27, and the " Non-Contents" 44. So that the words above quoted were ex punged fi om the clause. The word " rape," how ever, as another ground for divorce from tlie hus band, was retained in the clause by a majority of 45 to 29. And then, on clause 28, which Provides for the dismissal of a petit on for the dissolution of a marriage if the court shall find that the petitioner has during the marriage been accessory to or con niving at the adulte.y of the other party, &c., the Bishop of Oxford moved to reinstate the words (struck out in the Commons) "guilty of adultery," thus making the commission of a lultery at any time during the marriage a cause for the dismissal of the petition, or, in other words, the refusal of the relief of divorce. Their Lordships having divide don the question " whether to agree to the Commons' amendment," the " Contents" were 39, and the " Non-Contents" 35, so that the words were not restored as ertoneously stated in our impression of yesterday ; but, on the contrary, the Commons' amendment, which expunged the words in question, affirmed. Was not this clear frem the text of the " Minutes," the fact that the Bishop of Oxford, who was the author of the motion f , r reinsttaving the above words, voted with the " Non-Contents," or minority of 35 (togeth-r with his episcopal brethren of Chichester, Lincoln, Rochester, and S slisbury), wou'd dispel all doubt on the subject. The Bishop of London voted with Ministers in the majority o in this occasion. The next division was on Olausit F (added by the Commons), allowing husbands to claim damages from the adulterous seducers of their late wives, and this claim was ordered to be retained by 77 to 67 votes (proxies were here called for). The Bishops of London, Chichester, and Rochester voted in the majority, and the Bishops of Oxford, Salisbury, and Lincoln with the minority, or "Non-Contents." On clause 53, containing the famous proviso about the refusal of the clergy to remarry divorced adulterers and adulteresses, the Bishoplof Oxford moved to omit the words " on the ground of his or her adultery," the effect of which omission would have been tantamount to exempting the clergy from the duty of solemnising the marriage of any person whose former marriage might have been dissolved for any can e whatever, and thus affirming the privilege of scrupulous cler gymen to refuse to remarry in any case. The word, however, were ordered to stand put of the clause (i.e., were retained) by 37 to 32 votes, the Bishop of London voting in the majority, and the Bishops of Oxford, Lincoln, Chichester, and Rochester with the " Non-Contents." The Bishop ' of Oxford next moved to disagree to the proviso added to clause 53, and to the clause G, the one relating to the privilege conferred on the clergy t 3 refuse to remarry parties divorced f , r adultery, and the latter to the saving clause enacted that if the minister of any church or chapel refuse to perform that service, another clergyman may. Their Ler:ships, however, affirmed the proviso and saving clause of the Commons by 37 to 27 votes. On this occasion the Bishop of Lon ' don again voted with Ministers in the majority ' and the Bishop of Winchester a dd e d hi s name to the list of the "Non-Contents," or mino rity, in conjunction with his brethren of Chiches ter, Oxford, Rochester, and Salisbury. It follows from this explanation that in only two cases were the amendments of the Commons disagreed to— first, as regards the jurisdiction of the courts of quarter sessions ; and, secondly, as regards the " adultery committed in the conjugal residence" as a ground of divorce for the husband. The rest of the bill remains intact and inviolate as it went up from the House of Commons, and by the time these lines meet the eye of the public the bill will doubt less be ready to receive the Royal assent. Naval and Military Intelligence. The Ist division of the 56th Regiment embarked at Queenstown on board the Southampton trans port sailing vessel on Monday, which sailed direct for India next morning. They were conveyed front Cork direct on board by the river steamers Royal Alice and Prince, and on leav;ng the quay were loudly cheered by the crowds assembled to witness their departure ; also, as they passed the railway steamers on the river, they wore s tinted with a hearty and sympathetic cheer from those on board, which they returned with treble energy. The di visit:n consisted of four companies, comprising 351 non-commissoned officers and men, un der the command of Major P ea ty, an d accompanied by the following offi c e r s :—Ma. j .1. Anderson ;. Captains Pye, T o l c her, and ' Clatterbuck ; Dents. Turner, Bythell, Huskisson, Monk, and Baxter, with Dr. Knox, assistant-sur geon. Two other transports were expected in. Queenstown on Monday, to convey the second di vision of the 56th, with detachments of other regi ments, to the same destination. The transport Alipore went down to Woolwich yesterday evening at high tide, and moored along side the Arsenal pier, in readiness to embark the troops under orders for Kurrachee. The removal of the monster cannon from Wool wich arsenal to the marshes was commenced yester day, one single segment requiring the assistance of a team of 18 horses.
