Doors open at Six, to commence at Hall-past Awning LOND')N, SATURDAY. OCTOBER 2, 1847. A. strong feeling has been excited in all parts of the 1101111 try, but chiefly in the manufacturing districts, as to the ab so l ute necessity fur a general suspension of railway calls, an d as a natural consequence a tem porary stoppage of all the works now in progress of a construction, and resolution . not to enter upon any new works until the n of the present monetary crisis, and the re storation of our financial system to a healthier c on di t i on Leeds, and lience the resolu tions at Liverpool and on theimportant meeting held at Manchester, Thursday last, of bankers, merchants, sharebrokers, andothe rs report of which:appeared in The Sun o f y e s t (a ye s t erday The subject is undoubtedly one of the deepest inter to almost all classes of the community, and t he welfare and prosperity of thousands, or thei r Q 0: parative ruin, is involved in the result. The q ues ti on , too, for the decision of the directors of the several railway companies is of no ordinary difficulty; they have been elected for the purpose of watching over and guarding the interests of their con stituencies, the shareholders, of advancing those in terests by every means in their power, and we can readily enter into the feeliflgs of the gentlemen who state that they can suffer no other element to be ad mitted into the calculation, that they can consider nothing but whether it is for the advantage of the company which they represent to continue or suspend their operations. The latter course may, under peculiar circumstances, which must vary in each case, be attended with very considerable loss and inconve nience. They may have entered into engagements with their contractors which, as honest men, they are bound strictly to adhere to, and which they cannot alter in the slightest degree without the assent of the other parties to the agreement, and for th• due TEE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY ZYprING, OCTOBER •, 1347. ....., filment of which they themselves, in common with every shareholder, may be made personally responsible. Again, considerable expenditure may have already taken place, which would remain utterly useless and unproductive, but which a mo derate additional outlay would render exceedingly valuable, not only in yielding considerable dividends to the shareholders, but also in the increased facilities for intercourse and traffic, facilities that are so essen tial to our trade and commerce, and to the national prosperity. Another consideration must also be borne in mind, that such a suspension would throw thousands, aye, hundreds of thousands, of hard-work ing and industrious men out of employment, and reduce them from comfort and independence to com parative destitution and misery. All these points must be reflected upon maturely before those to whose administration the shareholders have con fided their interests can decide upon stop ping the works already in progress, and must be weighed against the evils of proceeding with vigour, which can only be done by making new calls, or acting on the powers conceded to them by the Legis lature of borrowing to an extent proportioned to their capital, which can be done when a certain por tion thereof has been paid up and duly applied. The almost invariable result of making a call, in the present state of the money market, has been to depreciate the value of the shares to the full amount required to be paid up, or even to a still greater de gree. The whole capital of the company becomes deteriorated in value. Proprietors who, under ordi nary circumstances, could readily pay the entire sums for which they are responsible, will sooner make considerable sacrifices by selling their shares for anything they may bring than withdraw their capital from other and more important undertakings. Others are wholly unable to pay the sums demanded, they are therefore compelled to throw their stock upon the market ; the supply, therefore, greatly ex ceeds the demand, and prices must fall, and continue to do so until those convinced of the utility of the un dertaking, and possessed of surplus capital for that purpose, come forward to purchase largely, and thus arrest the downward tendency. The injury done to the trading and manufacturing interests, which must be seriously affected by the additional demand for money occasioned by railway requirements in this period of general pressure and emergency, will inevi tably recoil on the value of the railways themselves, and smaller returns and a diminished traffic will be inevitable ; and this will equally be the case whether the sum necessary to carry on the works should be obtained by calls or loans. Loans, too, if it should be decided on thus procuring the means of continuing their operations,must necessarily be contracted on terms very disadvantageous to the borrowers, and at a much higher rate of interest than that which would be de demanded at another time. And as the directors would in every case be bound to retain the money for a certain period, generally five or seven years, they would have to pay probably one third more than if they consented to wait for a short time until after the meeting of Parliament, when the nature of the proposed financial measures, which are undoubtedly under the consideration of the Ministry, shall have been announced to the country. All these considerations must be duly weighed and reflected on before any decision can be arrived at by those who only take into account their own individual interests. But in any case of doubt, the benefit should be given to that side which is for the benefit of the people in general. Directors, too, should not forget that although their first duty is to the company which they represent, they are also as Englishmen deeply interested in the national pros perity, and that it should not be for any trivial or contingent advantage, that they would increase the general distress and difficulty. Unless, therefore, the suspension of these works would be attended with serious and undoubted injury to the company, they should comply with the general request that has been so strongly urged upon them at the several meet ings. As we have already stated, there can be no general rule. Every case must depend on its own peculiar circumstances. This, however, appears to be certain, that no new undertaking should now be commenced. It is clear that the Legislature would readily consent to an extension of the time originally granted for the completion of their line to every company that, in deference to the public opinion, so strongly and unequivocally expressed, had con sented to the postponement of their operations. Per haps a special meeting of each company should be held, in order that the directors may know the senti ments of the body they represent before the course they are inclined to adopt is finally decided on. It would be a fitting mark of respect that could not fail to be agreeable to the shareholders. The Great Scourge of humanity —a scourge more awful than ATILLA and his Huns —more terrible than the eruptions of a volcano—more devastating than the throes of an earthquake—the Great Scourge of the Cholera is at this moment advancing towards us with silent but indomitable rapidity, if we may believe the intelligence received almost daily from the frontiers of the Russian empire. Its course is described as being north-westerly, and it is said to have already penetrated into the interior of Europe. GOD defend us from the agonies which desolated the world in 1832 ! Those agonies are not yet forgotten. Nor can years obliterate the recollection of a pestilential malady so mysterious in its character, so inexorable in its diffusion, and so inexplicably dismal in its progress through the nations of Christ endom. It pressed forwards like an aveng ing fiend and decimated the millions, as at the breath of a Nemesis. For fifteen summers the earth has been rid of its tormentor. At the end of that period it is again startled by the rumoured re appearance of this most horrible and destructive plague. After ravaging the territory of the Cal mucks, it has disseminated its contagion among the serfs of NICHOLAS. It has travelled from the walls of Astracan to the hovels of Charkav, an 3 appears to have already descended like a curse upon the inha bitants of Kiev, on the banks of the Dnieper. There may unquestionably be much exaggeration in the accounts received from Caucasia, namely, that during an interval of nearly nine months no less than 17,050 individuals were attacked with the disease in that kingdom, and that out of these 6,310 perished. There may be likewise a certain degree of exaggera tion in the assertion that during its passage through the streets of Astracan 137 persons were smitten down with the cholera in a single day, namely, upon the 30th of July. But, heightened as in all likelihood the intelligence is by the fears of its recipients, there cannot be a moment's doubt but that the pestilence is again abroad upon the wings of the wind, and that it is stealing gradually towards the central portions of continental Europe. With the experience of 1822 before them, it be comes the bounden duty of the Legislature to provide such measures of precaution as may tend to mitigate the miseries resulting from the Cholera in the event of its advancing so far in a south-westerly direction as to assail the population of these islands. Better even than the vigilance of the most stringent code of quarantine are those simple measures of sa nitary legislation for which we have clamoured so long and so earnestly. A contagion that defies the obstacles of quarantine may be deprived of a consi derable proportion of its virulence by the systematic cleanliness introduced among a whole people by a proper scheme of sanitary legislation. Is not this self-evident? And, being self-evident, shall its im portance be depreciated when the Great Scourge of the Cholera is for a second time impending over the plains and cities of the eastern hemisphere ? God forbid Cron forbid that men sho u ld b e so bli n d to the dictates of reason, or, rat h er, t h at they should shut their eyes ag a i ns t t h e trut h w hi c h i s forced upon their compreh ens i on as if by instinct ! The warning voice which comes to us from the waters of the Dnieper tells us of the danger ' • the combi ne d arguments of experienc e , reason, and instinct, pro claim to us how that dan ger may be in the readiest manner avoided, or, in the more terrible extremity, how its anguish may be in the most e ffi cient manner assauged. A total and (not to employ the word with any conventional meaning) a radical change is necessa ry throughout society before the health of the multitude can be considered in anything like security. Mean while preliminary efforts should be made to diminish the evil consequences which are hourly flowing from the miserable state of disarrangement by which our villages and towns are characterised. For example, it were hopeless to anticipate a thorough ro.organiza tion in the sewerage throughout the kingdom, but until that re-organization can be properly effected, let such simple precautions be adopted for the diminu tion of the pestilential exhalation from public drains as that of periodically pouring into those lairs of fever and infection a given quantity of the disinfect ing fluid. That extraordinary advantages result from the employment of this most important disco very, we can ourselves attest, having very recently witnessed experiments which proved the existence of a powerful disinfecting property in the liquid concocted in the laboratory of the philanthropist. A bucket full of water drawn from a tan-pit, and im pregnated to such a frightful extent with decayed animal matter, that the stench was absolutely unen durable, was in a few seconds rendered as inoffensive as a cup of spring water, by adding to it a small portion of the disinfecting fluid. Immediately the two liquids are combined a thick scum rises to the surface, thereby adding to the advantage of destroy ing all the pestilential exhalations that of afford ing to the agriculturist a wholesome and nutri tious manure. It is such sanitary precautions as this of the disinfecting fluid that we would willingly see adopted in every city, and town, and hamlet in the United Kingdom. Were they to be enforced upon every municipality and local guardianship by an enact ment preliminary to a comprehensive law of sanitary reform, the ordinary mortality of the country would be very considerably diminished. Then, indeed, we might await the dispensations of DIVINE PROVIDENCE without any undue fear for our poorer brethren, and tarry even the dread arrival of the Cholera with calmness and resignation. We learn from Berlin that the trial of the political prisoners implicated in the late Polish revolution was going on rather more rapidly than at the commence ment. About eighty cases had been decided, but few of the sentences had been promulgated. M. MIIIRO.• LAWSKI has been condemned to death. The defence of this gentleman was bold and animated, and in some parts so affecting that his judges shed tears. The Pallade of Rome announces that Pizzo, in Calabria, has joined in the revolt, and that the insur gents have put to death the family TRENTA CAPILLI. The banner of the insurgents of Calabria bears a red cross on a white ground, surrounded by as many green crosses as there are States in Italy. A letter from Italy, in the Augsburg Gazette, an nounces the death of Admiral BANDIERA, the father of the two unfortunate officers who were executed at Cosenza. The cholera is making rapid progress. The Em peror of RUSSIA has deferred his proposed visit to Poland, in consequence of the approach of the disease to that kingdom. The number of the persons who died of cholera between the 16th October, 1846, and the 14th June, 1847, in the Caucasus, amounted to 6,318. The cholera reached its greatest intensity in Astracan on the 25th July. On the 31st of that month 131 persons died. It still raged in Georgia, and so great was the apprehension felt in Trebizonde, that all communications had been interrupted between that city and Batoum, where it was believed to have manifested itself. At Erzeroum the number of victims was inconsiderable ; not more than 20 or 25 cases occurred daily, one-third of which were fatal. The poorer classes were principally affected. The disease had appeared at Redout Kale, but was of a mild character. After quitting Persia, it had re entered that country by the Carabagh. A general armament is taking place in the Canton de Vaud and some others, of all men from eighteen to forty years of age. It was feared that this mea sure would produce a collision between the cantons previous to the assembling of the Diet. Accounts from Athens have been received to the 20th of September. General KITZO TZAVELLAS, Minister of War, has been appointed President of the Council. CoLETTI was buried on the 12th Sept. The whole diplomatic and consular body, the civil and military authorities, and the deputies and senators attended the funeral. The KING issued an ordonnance on that day, com• manding all the civil and military employes of the State to wear mourning for five days for COLETTI. The French steamer from Alexandria arrived at Malta at three P. M. on the 24th ult. She reported that the India steamer had arrived at Suez, and that the Ariel, with India Mails, would leave on the 21st. Madrid papers of the 25th ult. have arrived. They publish the letters addressed by ESPARTERO to the QUEEN and the Ministers. The letter to the QUEEN is as follows : " Senora,—On receiving the royal decree of the 3d, my first impulse was to express my gratitude for the favour your Majesty deigned to confer on me by calling me to occupy a post in the Senate, and also the lively satisfaction 1 feel in being permitted to address myself to your Majesty. " Your Majesty being graciously disposed towards the conciliation of all Spaniards, hitherto divided by political oscillations, the majority of the nation will sustain with enthusiasm a desire as benevolent as it is generous ' • but if there remain obstacles to over come, your Majesty may permit your generous heart to yield to its own impulse. Let not your Majesty lay aside the valour inspired by sublime actions, in the certainty that thus, who, with so much constancy, combated, even before the time when your Majesty could comprehend their sacrifices, to defend the throne based on the constitution of the State will never abandon your Majesty in the hour of danger. " The nation, Senora, hopes much from your Ma jesty ; counting on a support as noble as it is pa triotic, your Majesty will not forget that you are called to restore its splendour to the monarchy, and that the reward which awaits your Majesty is as great as the work you have undertaken—a glorious renown and the benedictions of an entire people. " Senora, on giving expression with so much frank• ness to the sentiments which animate me, I do so in the hope that your Majesty, convinced of my respectful veneration, will benignly receive the words of one who with loyalty served your Majesty and the State —of one who, though far from his native land, has never ceased to pray for the preservation of your Majesty, because on your preservation depends that of Spanish independence. "At the royal feet of your Majesty, " THE DUKE OF VICTORY. " London, Sept. 12." The communication to the Government is addressed to the Minister of the Interior : " Most Excellent Sir,—l have received the Royal order of the 3d instant, which your Excellency has done me the honour to transmit to me, and which in forms me that her Majesty has been pleased to name me senator of the kingdom, the duties of which office I shall endeavour to perform worthily. "I trust that your Excellency will be so good as to place the accompanying letter in the royal hands of her Majesty, and at the same time express to her my unalterable sentiments of gratitude and of loyalty. " Those sentiments, as your Excellency will per ceive, are in complete harmony with the generous and patriotic principles of the preamble of the Royal decree of the 2d of September, which does so much honour to the Ministers who subscribed it. "May God preserve your Excellency many years. "THE DUKE OF VICTORY. " London, Sept. 12." According to the Eco del Comercio, her MAJESTY received Colonel GUERRA, ESPARTERO'S Secretary, in the kindest possible manner, and inquired with great interest 89 to the health of the Duke and Duchess of VICTORY. In reply to the laudations of the disinterestedness of France, in which the Heraldo is wont to indulge the Clamor Publico says— " Our colleague may have excellent reasons for not bringing into public discussion the too notorious pro jects of the neighbouring kingdom; but it will per suade no one that our powerful ally, regardless of its traditions, no longer interferes in our affairs, or that it respects the independence of Spain. Neither exer tions nor force have beers diminished merely from the fact of the question having changed its ground and aspect. With the same perseverance the Cabinet of the Tuileries endeavours at this very moment to carry out its favourite plan of placing a crown on the head of the French Duke, as its old designs of placing under its dependence constitutional Spain, beginning from the death of Ferdinand, and ending with the double marriage which sealed its Machiavelic system. And we hazard nothin g in assuring that at this day its efforts are still greater to reap the fruits of the nego tiations and cabals of ao many years, all directed to introduce into our royal race a scion of the fortunate family raised up by the revolution of July. It is net possible for France to desist from its constant policy at the very moment when it touches, as if with the hand, the realisation of its golden dreams." The Three per Cents, were done at 28 for eaishi the Four per Centc., at 1G;; the Five per Cents., at 17i; end the Debt without Interest, at 511. We have received the Paris papers of Thursday. —.--- The ex-King of Westphalia, Prince JEROME B01(1.. PARTE arrived in Paris on that day, The govenorship of the Invalides has been declined by Marshal SOULT. The Duke DE NEMOURS assembled the officers of the various regiments at Compeigne, and addressed them as follows previously to the breaking up of the camp : " Gentlemen !—You have by your labours been exercising the two great powers which direct all others—the intellectual and the corporal powers, and thus you have attained those solid as well as brilliant results which merited and received from the King the high approbation he express,d at his recent visit. The country also applauds these noble exercises whence it derives its confidence in you, as you derive the means of serving it. There is no doubt, gentlemen, ano ther service in which the feats are real—a service ob tained by some, desired by all —a service which our brothers in arms in Africa are now performing, and which you have performed, and which you are ready at any time to perform again. But, however glo rious it may be to pay the debt of blood, it is not to that the services of the army are limited. Guardian of the domestic hearth, as well as of the open frontier of the country, let it not be forgotten that it annually receives into its ranks, from their paternal thresholds, and returns back to them, an im portant portion of the population of France, formed in this virile school to habits of sacrificing themselves for their country. On regarding you, everybody must at once conceive what will be your worth in war — but permit me to tell you what is your worth in peace. The flag, gentlemen, is not only serviceable in the face of an enemy, if it then leads on to safety and to victory—it still remains in times of peace and calm a symbol of honour and discipline, of disinter estedness and duty, amidst the citizens. A. crowd of honourable, virtuous, and patriotic feelings are at tached to these coleurs, to their cherished image, and it is not without benefit to our hearts that, even in peace, our eyes become enlivened, as they are to-day, in following the motions of the national banner. It is, then, useful that we should unfurl it at times, and rally ourselves around it in num bers, in these exercises which moralise as much as they improve our minds; which, by assembling and uniting the different branches and corps of the army, prove the mutual dependence of every part of the great military family, and confirm their union by the identity of its object, the energetic sympathy of concurrence, and the common joy of success. Thus, gentlemen, not only the good and dear recol lections, but the real advantages of this assemblage will rest in the minds of all—we shall have derived from it, in various ways, liberal instruction, which each of us hereafter will employ in the service of the country. Before we part, gentlemen, accept my best wishes, with the eulogiums I am so proud to bestow upon you. Report them to your non-commissioned officers and soldiers, those modest but faithful and devoted companions of your labours and partici pators in all your glory, an d t o w h ose ears I regre t I cannot make my vo i ce reach. Not one of you, not one of them will ever escape my memory or lose my affection ; and I shall be happy if you, in re turn, with the remembrance of the days we have just passed together, shall preserve for him who was your chief a feeling of friendship and a confidence which is proof against time."

REGISTRATIONS.—(THIS DAY.) CITY OF LONDON. (Before Mr. T. Y. M'Cualsm.) Mr. Henry Willis, residing at No. 76, Lombard street, was objected to by the Liberals. It appeared that the objection was made in the first instance by Mr. Croucher, the agent of the Liberal party. Mr. Brown contended that the objection was not a valid one, on the ground of the objection having been made by Mr. Croucher, whose name did not ap pear on the register, it having been previously struck off. Mr. S. Smith held that the objection ought to be allowed to stand, as at the time when the objection was made Mr. Croucher's name was upon the list, which was quite sufficient to meet all the require ments of the Act. Mr. M'Cuaisnn said, that he would give Mr. Brown a case for the Common Pleas on the subject, if he thought proper to adopt that course. Mr. Brown did not feel justified in acceding to the proposition of the Court at that moment; he would give a positive answer in the course of the day. The person objected to was subsequently proved to reside at Epsom, which was beyond the distance allowed by the Act, and his name was expunged on that ground. Henry Hart, residing at No. 3, Bevis Marks, was objected to on the ground of his not having paid the full amount of the rates, he having on the. plea of poverty obtained a compromise of them from the overseers of the parish. Name expunged. SOUTHWARK. (Before S. C. C. Fisia, Esq.) ST. GEORGU'S. Andrew Loutan claimed to he admitted on the list. The reason of his name not being inserted by the overseer was, that he had misdirected his residence, which should have been 146, Stanhope -place, instead of Sussex-place, Southwark-bridge road. Claim allowed. Mr. J. lulison (overseer) here observed that he had reason to believe that some 2,000 names were on the list which were in the rate- books ; some of them paid only ss. week rent. Mr. Day (vestry-clerk) denied th a t such was the case, and w as p ro ceeding with a statement, when he was interrupted by The BARRISTER, who said that if the statement of the overseer was correct, a gross violation of the law had been committed ; and recommended the gentle men to investigate the matter themselves, and com municate to him the result. Mr. Tallson subsequently stated that he had dis covered several cases of error w hi c h he alleged. Mr. Day lu p al ay d s e a d to said dh hd eawas prepared t o s h ow t h at the parpaid the rates. The BARRISTER said—That it was incorrect to put on the list the names of every person who had not claimed to be rated. The list on the church door, which was the one he had to revise, must be made up from the rate books. Mr. Levy here produced the rate book for October, and it appearing that the landlords of the persons alluded to had paid their rates the matter dropped. NON-ATTENDANCE OF OVERSEERS. The BARRISTER inquired, whether the overseers for the parish o f Rotherhithe, who had not attended last Thursday at Bermondsey, were present ? Mr. Dourant (one' of the overseers) said—That arrangements had be en made for t h e atten d ance of one of the overseers, w h o had atten d e d , b ut d i d not arrive until the Cou r t was over. The BARRISTER—Is he here to explain the cause of his non-attendance? Mr. Dourant answered in the negative. The BARRISTER—Then he must appear and explain he matter him-elf. The lists of the other parishes in the borough were gone through, to which there were no objection of any importance. The Lords Commissioners of her Majesty's Trea sury have directed that lentils and yams be added to the list of articles with regard to which the navigation laws have been suspended until the Ist of March next. The Earl of Ellesmere and the Bridgewater Trustees have commenced the rebuilding of Bridgewater House on a splendid scale.

RIM EXCELLENCY TIM COUNTESS OP CLAREN DON.—The following bulletin was issued by Dr. Evory Kennedy on Wednesday morning, at the Viceregal Lodge :—" Her Excellency and infant passed a good night, and are going on most satisfactorily." EMIGRATION TO NEW ZEALAND.—Yesterday the New Zealand Company appointed two vessels of 600 tons burden, to convey 200 settlers each, from the Clyde and the Port of London on the 30th of October next, to their new settlement, Otago. MONEY" and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was very heavy, and throughout the week has been drooping, although partly sustained by the accounts from America. Sales yesterday 3,000 bales. Railway Shares at Liverpool have been declining, and were yesterday very gloomy. The Bank of England averages for the week, to the 25th ult., show the following results on a comparison with the previous week : Notes issued now .£22,190,675 Decrease 14,530 Rest, now Increase Public deposits now 9,457.851 Increase Other deposits now Increase 298,969 Seven day and other bills now 819,785 Increase Government Securities, the same. Other Securities now 20,007,232 Increase Notes now Decrease . . 160,650 Total now Increase Bullion now 8,782,703 Decrease 97,787 Active circulation now Increase The above return is not different from that given on this day se'nnight in its main features. The circulation is being augmented, and the Bank is still liberally disburs ing the resources placed at its command by the accumu lated deposits. The reserve of Rotes has also been made available, and until the dividends are paid, we trust the Bank will persevere in its present course, and afford, by advances upon mercantile paper, in preference to Stock or Exchequer-bills, every possible accommodation to the mercantile community. Everybody now flies to the Bank, and although not half the bills offered can of ne cessity be accepted, we may judge that the additional advance of 2,000,000/. upon other securities within the last fortnight, even at si, 6, and 64 per cent., the charges made, must prove an essential relief. Very little can be judged of concerning the trade of the country, or the balance in our favour by the present quotations of the foreign exchanges, which, however, are nominally favourable. The demand for money in the Stock Exchange has been very urgent this morning, and in the discount market also there is a " squeeze," owing to the prepa ration making for Monday, the " fourth," we appre. head that the wholesale houses will have more difficulty than the mercantile establishments. A writer in the Banhers' Magazine, makes some re marks upon railway expenditure which are judicious and apposite. It is the business of shareholders them selves, and with the power vested in them, one cannot but express the most unfeigned astonishment that they exhibit such apathy, while openly and unceasingly com plaining. The writer observes, " That the calls already, and he process of being, made on railway shareholders, have been far too numer ous and heavy is not denied ; but the remedy for this evil is simple of itself, and easy of application. Let meetings be called by requisition, and resolutions passed, restraining directors from making further calls without the consent of other meetings called to consider their expediency. In May last, I addressed a letter to directors, through the railway press, upon this very subject ; in it I recommended that—' Where contracts have been made, the abandonment of which would occa sion loss, the amount their completion would require should be calculated, and made known to the share holders ;" that where contracts have been made (but the works not commenced), and can be called without loss, they should be so;' Where none have been, none should be made ;' Where works have been engaged to be completed within a cer tain time, that time should be extended ;' and last and chiefly, that in all cases the amount that would be re quired to be paid up during the next nine or twelve months should at once be advertised.' Prophets have no honour in their own country ; so the foregoing was, of course, disregarded. I then called upon the share holders to take the matter into their own hands at the ensuing half yearly meetings, and pass resolutions bind ing directors to commence no new works, to make no fresh calls, without the consent of a special meeting to be convened for that purpose, but all in vain, directors continue to call, shareholders to slumber. Hine lachrymm.' " The Public Securities have been exceedingly de pressed, and the difficulty of raising money has induced forced sales of Exchequer-bills to an extent that has reduced the value to 10s. discount. Consols are 84k to for Transfer, and 844 I for Time, though since 844 4. East India Stock has been 228 to 223, and Bank Stock 195 to 197. India Bonds have been 10s. to 20s. discount!

Dutch Two-and•a-Half per Cents. are 524 to 534. Railway Shares have all been again most seriously depressed, and it seems useless just now to press sales. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY Al' ONE O'CLOCk.

John Jackson, a carman, was p'aced at the bar before Mr. Jardine, on a charge of knocking down and running over a man, whose name we did not hear. It appeared that the prisoner was driving a heavily loaded cart through Bow-street, and the injured man was drawing a truck a little in advance of him. The prisoner overtook and passed the truck, and in doing so ran against the man and knocked him down. The man was immediately taken to the hospital, where he is now lying. He is severely but not dangerously hurt. Mr. JARDINE remanded the prisoner till next Saturday, admitting him to bail in the meantime. LAMBETH.—(THIS DAY.) Thomas Cheswick, a town traveller, was charged before Mr. Norton, with embezzling 41. lOs. and other money, the property of Mr. Alexander Blres, of Buckingham-street, Strand, and also of Dresden, wholesale stay-niaker. The fact that the prisoner received the sums stated from persons in the stay trade on account of the prosecutor was proved ; but it appeared that he acted in the capacity of an agent at a salary of 10s. per week and a commission of per cent. upon the orders which he obtained, having no authority, however, to receive money, all accounts being collected by Mr. Blres himself. Mr. Games, who attended for the prisoner, sub mitted that as there was no authority to receive, there was an end to the charge of embezzlement. Mr. NORTON said—Certainly so ; but it gave rise to a graver charge. He thought that in the case of the 4/. 10s. received from a Mrs. Coney, of Oxford street, there was clearly a fraud. But it was in favour of the prisoner that there had been account between him and the prosecutor, and that the latter would have been satisfied if be had called and given him an account of his proceedings. He (Mr. Norton) would remand the case for the attendance of Mrs. Coney, who was unable to attend through illness ; but admitted the prisoner to bail in two sureties in .5/. each. ROBBING COFFEEHOUSES AND HOTELS.--A man, who gave his name as John Philip Morris, was that the prisoner was last charged with stealing a quantity of sheets, s hi rts , an d other property, from numerous c o ff ee h ouses an d sma ll hotels, in which he slept. Itsuspicious circumst ances , appearedtht nightpth house in under inanemy Walworth-road, and when taken into custody he tore up a great number of duplicates, which he took from his pocket. B ut Inspector Arnold, of the L division, contrived to put some of them together, and dis covered that they related all to property taken from different houses in which the prisoner had lodged from night to night. Mrs. Smithery, proprietor of a coffee-house in Cam bervrell-green, proved that two sheets pawned by the prisoner, and now produced, were taken from her house by him on the morning of the 29th September, he having had a bed there the night before. On the same occasion he also took away a clean shirt belong ing to another lodger, and left in its place a very dirty one indeed. Other cases of the same kind were gone into, but as the inspector hoped to find the owners of the re maining property described in the duplicates, the prisoner was remanded. DUTCH CATTLE.—A screw steamer, newly placed on the station, to run between the Dutch port ot Harlin gen and the British metropolis, has brought 1,205 sheep, the production of Holland, being the largest quantity imported on a single occasion from any port of the con tinent of Europe, and, necessarily, from any portion of the globe. Notwithstanding the large number of this description of cattle, the vessel was not deficient of other kind of live stock. for she had also on board a goat, 23 calves, 113 cows, 100 cheeses, 113 bags of oats, and the large quantity of 1,295 casks of butter, the whole the produce of Holland. in hi sick page, Mad, Hele old.? reefs the t by h mace 0 sitic crit It t anc t 3°l'l ski
