This Company is established with a view to afford the pub. lie increased facilities in the conveyance of mails, passengers, specie, and merchandise between England, via Harwich, and the ports of Rotterdam, Hamburg, Antwerp, dlc. A traffic arrangement for a term of years has been entered I nto with the Eastern Counties Railway Company on advan- Jgeons terms, and the Directors have secured the co-opera ion of the authorities of the Dutch-Rhenish Railway Com pany, and the other inland navigation and railway establish. onents in Holland and Germany, all of whom are so convinced of the advantages to be derived from this line of communica tion, as the most desirable for passenger traffic, and the speedy conveyance of merchandise and perishable goods, that they are anxious to promote the views of this Company to the fullest possible extent. The town of Harwich is 68 miles from London by railway, and its port is the most convenient for direct communication between London and all the great seaports in Holland and Belgium, and thence to the northern and central parts of the Continent of Europe. Passengers proceeding to India via Trieste, by Harwich, Rotterdam, and the Dutch-Rhenish Railway, will effect a saving of 48 hours, as compared with the route via Marseilles; the line from Rotterdam to Trieste being on the eve of com. pletion without a break. The harbour of Narwich is safe, commodious, and easy of access in all weathers and states of the tide—advantages which no other port possesses on the eastern coast south of the Humber. BY the opening of this route via 'Harwich the dangers and delays of the intricate navigation of the Swin and the month of the River Thames are avoided, whereby a saving of time is effected to Hamburgh, Rotterdam, and Antwerp of from 10 to 11 hours ; whilst the route to Oberhausen and thence to the northern parts of Europe is four hours and a quarter less by Harwich and Rotterdam than that by Dover and Ostend, as per tabular statement, and thus the former must become the direct route of postal communication.

EAST INDIAN SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH TIA SEA. - Weir= We understand there-is a project, supported by very influential names, under the above title, for establishiv, Is telegraph te:lndia in continuation of the system of teW graphs decided on by the English Government for the Mediterranean, and which is to terminate at Alexandria. The proposal is to lay a number of wires across Egypt and down the Red Sea to Aden, whence. they Will run oartilltl to the south coast of Arabia and terminate at KurracheP, to which the Indian relegrapha extend. Complete powers have been very lately obtained from the Ottoman and Egyptian Governments for the above pur pose, and the conditions secure complete independent action on the part of the company of the governments through whose territory the line is to pass, and are in every respect most favourable. The stations are so chosen that 490 statute miles is to be thegreatest distance between any two of them, and they will be at places where there is a military force, such as Kosseer and Ji s dlab, or on British territory, as Aden and the Kooria Mooria Is lands lately ceded to us, or on 'the territory of the Imaum of Muscat, who is our close ally, at Rasil Hadd. The Red Sea is the regular commercial route, is free from any danger of interruption, and our influence on it has been so long and so completely established that, irre spective of the security afforded by the statioi.e them selves, no possible danger of interruption can arise. Our steamers will be able to receive and send instantaneous news at Aden and Suez.. Complete charts and soundings, taken under the orders of the East India. CcurpaoY, exist all the way from Suez to Kurrachee, and across Egypt a railway and highway exist, so that the only thing to be done is to manufacture the cable in England, and then to lay it in latitudes where the winds are temperate and steady ten months of the year, taking as a guide the existing soundings. The proposed line will excite no political jealousies, and the cost of protection may be said to be nil. The communication from Kurrachee to Alexandria will, by means of relay batteries, - be instantaneous.— Daily News. Country Markets. DERBY SMITHFIELD.-FEU. 24.

The details of the case were of a most disgusting character ; and it was admitted by Mrs. Craze that before and after her husband 'e death the bad had criminal intez - course with the prisoner. She wished to take medicine to procure aboition, but alleged that Mr. Hopgood toh 1 her "that no man in England woul Ido it." She sea t for a surgeon named Bedell with a view to effect hei • purpose; but, after an interview with him, she said she did not ask him to do it, and that this gentleman can. - tioned her not to take any medicine. It was proved that Mr. Hopgood had given Mrs. Craze two pills, bart they were not of a noxious character, and were not suc& as would be likely, as stated by several witnesses, te, procure abortion. After hearing a number of witnesses,. however, the magistrates committed the prisoner for trial at the ensuing Devon Lent Assizes, but acceptedl bail of 1,0001. for hie appearance.

J. Byng, Chairman of the Board of Directors, in the chair. The report and statement of accennts have a l r eady appeared in Tlce Son, and they were taken as read. The CtiAittmAtt, in moving the adoption of the repot t, - said that the statement contained in the report and ac caunts VCRS so . ample that little remark was needed by line on that occasion. The receipts were - satisfactory, and whilst there had been no increase of expenditure everything had been done to insure the safety of the travelling public. The gross rec iptes on the hail-year enabled the directors; to propose a dividend of 5 per cent. per annum. (Ceeers.) , The directors were relaying the line, which wool I incur great exeense and occupy some cunsiderable time. The hen. gentlemen then referred to the gross receipts and expenditure, the disceetiuuance of certain trains that were found not to be used by the public, and said that the loans as they became due had been paid off', and sums raised at an interest less than 5 per cent., and it was hoped that the reduced rate of ire terest wool I he still greater reduced. Referring to the steam-boets in connection with this tins the chairman said that they were in an efficient state, and had ever been so, and that there was a reserved sum of 17,5001. to meet any casualties that ini;ht Arise. In referring to the late gold baliion robbery, the chairmen said that great credit was due to Mr. Ilse for the ability he dis played in conducting the prosecution, and -aided -tliat sufficient property had been recovered to defray the expenses tf the prosecutiem and leave a surplus of 5001. (Hear.) Triey were stilt continuin4 the search for the lost gold, arid they were in hopes lef its being recovered. GOBDON THOMSON (Arector) seconded the motion. Lord A. PAGET called attention to tee etate of the harbours at Veilleestoene and Boulogne, and advised the directors to take some seeps to allow the boats to leave Folkestone at all hour's, instead of as now at tidal hours. A sum of money had,been voted for the improvement of the harbour at Folestone, and he thought if the subject was Lid tefore the Government, they would give the company some assistance towards improving the har bour. Tt e same - remark applied to Boulogne, and be thought that if a repreeeetaeon was made to the Em peror of the French he would do something to improve the harbour of Boulogne. He (Lord A. Paget) should be happy to .make one of a deputation to wait on the Emperor of the Fiench for that purpose. par, hear.) It was high time something should he done to make the communication between Folkestone and Beulogue - as it ought to be, the best points of communication between ' the two couutriee. (Gear, hear.)

It was an important amend ment relative to their extensions, and he intended to move it again that day. After some further re marks on the report he called attention to the amount paid for accidents. (Hear, hear.) Thii line, on a return of 583,000/ , had paid 10,3491. for sca'dents, wh ht the sum paid by the London and North-Western Railway, with their immense traffic, for the same period was only 8,8641. (Hear, hear.) He Complains I cf . the numerous alterations of- the time of running the trains on this line and the Greenwich branch, which, he said, was a great evil and of great in convenience to the public, often resulting in serious dis appointments. He condemned the further proposed ex tension of this line, and moved an amendment that the d:r.2ctors Ehouli not proceed with any more extensions until the original shareholders were paid a dividend of 5 per cent. (Hear, hear.) Mr. DEAVIS' seconded the amendment, and said that it was the eletension policy that had reduced the divi dends. Mr. DELL referred to the "hostile projects," as de scribed in the report in connection with this line, in the course of which he reviewed the extension policy that had besn adopted by the directors for the past ten years, and pointed out what he called the fatAl mistake that was made by them with reference to the East Kent. He counselled the company making peace with the Esst Kent and It ew Kent Csmpanies - if they wished tocoi! serve the-terests of ; the South Earn ,proprievs. - -,- Mr. ittcll, M.P., a direclor, rose Earn cotrent proprietor.

Mr. Ricer, .111. P., said that no doubt it would be satis factory to the meeting to know that Mr. Bell was a sub scriber to the East Kent to the extent of 4,0001. (Ffear, hear ) Mr. BELL said that subscribing to the contract was not tantaoiount to being a shareholder. (Cries of "Oh, oh.") Mr. Rica said that it woulJ, no doubt, be very sati factory to the Parliamentary Committee to know that Mr. Bell was not a subscriber—that it was all moon shine. (Hear, and laughter.) He asked Mr. Btll if he bad not proceeded with the scheme, and hA paid down 400/. on that contract. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) Mr. BELL dteined to answer the question. (Cries of " Oh, oh, and laughter.) It was a very important ques don, and ought only to have been Piked in the com mittee room. (laughter.) Mr. Rica said that he thought it a very pertinent question, and that it ought to be answered here. (Hear, hear.) The hon. gentleman then proceeded to remark that Mr. Bell was the solicitor to the Cray's line, and asked the meeting to defer the discussion on these exten sions until the Wharnelffe meeting, to be shortly held.

Thomson, t h e con tractors, were suddenly brought to a stand-still, in consequence of several hundred of the employed Aavvies, composed principally of Irishmen, having struck work. The ceS e,a:ion of labour by one particular branclr, which was that of filing waggons, had its effect upon the other departments , an d platelayer., tippers, engine-drivers, and overloLkers were thrown idle. About 200 navvies struck in the first instance, but this number was speedily augmented, and at present there are about 1,000 men doing nothing. Many of these consist onf tippers, platelayers, managers , &c., who hang to do xi ith the strike. The total number of workmen employed at the dock works up to Monday was 1,200. ors , The cause of the grievanc e has been variously stated. F The contractors, on the other hand, say that it is not so I much a matter of wages with the men as the " Irish againt the English," or an attempt on the part of the natives of the sister isle to drive alt Englishmen from the works. The Moser s.. Thompson have made arrangements for bringing men from their various contracts in different . puts of the country to replace those now out on strike On Taes , ay morning s'me of the workmen commenced operations, but they were soon visited by gangs of the " turn-outs," who compelled teem to desist.
