The latest intelligence from head-quarters, some where near the Kei River, represents the Governor and Colonel Somerset as active and successful in following up Cabus Congo's people, and his obstinate brother Pato. His Excellency had crossed the Kei with a strong and well-appointed force, and with a firm determination to obtain some compensation for the losses of the colonists and the expenses of Government. His Excellency had demanded of Krell 15,000 head of cattle as a penalty for his treatment of the British resident agent,,and for permitting the cattle carried off from the colony to be driven into his territory, of which it is affirmed the Governor has the most ample proof. PRICE SD. With regard to the military movements the accounts state that Colonel Somerset has made a further capture in Kreli's country of 2,000 head of cattle, and that Pato very narrowly escaped capture. This notorious chief, with a number of his followers, got surrounded during s. thick mist, Colonel Somerset himself being so near as to discharge a pistol at him, but unfortunately without effect. O ne or two other shots were fired at him, but still he seams to have escaped unhurt. The result of this affair is stated to be about forty of the enemy killed, and the capture of the number of cattle stated. Accounts from the districts of Somerset and Graaff Reinet state that that part of the country had been visited by some o f the most fri g h t f u l t h u nd er-storms ever experienced in that quarter. Much damage has been done to the standing crops, whole corn fields being washed away in some instances. Much loss has also been done to stock. One farmer, Mr. J. Malan, in Zwager's Hoek, had 1,600 sheep washed away and drowned. Mr. Hartzenburg, it is said, has lost nearly all the stock he possessed, and many other farmers have lost stock. The hail which accompanied the rain is described as being tremendous—whole tracts of country over which the storm passed were stripped of vegetation —the Karoo bushes being literally pounded, and the bark stripped off the Mimosa trees. The Sunday river has not been known to he so full for ten years—the Vogel, Little, and Great Fish, and nearly all the smaller rivers are flooded over the banks. There is a general order, we are informed, congratulating the troops on the probable speedy termination of their labours—the tribes west of the Kei having been subdued, and the only re sisting chief having been driven with loss over that river. It is said that the 90th, 91st, and 27th regiments will go home immediately. The disratehes to his Excellency the Governor, an nouncing his supercession, and the appointment of Sir Henry Pottinger, reached him at Butterworth ; and a communication has been forwarded to Port Elizabeth for NM; to - rWEIT - Liacelrency, wire thus pllrrpmez to avoid the fatigue consequent on the overland route. ATTACK UPON MIDDLESEX HOSPITAL.—On Tues day an Irishwoman died in this hospital, whose body the surgeons deemed it necessary to open, her death having oc curred under suspicious circumstances. Thursday night her husband, accompanied by a large body of Irishmen and Irish women, went to the hospital with a coffin, and insisted upon getting the body, and when the officers of the hospital re fused, the mob threatened to take it by force, and were about executing their threat when the police arrived, and they were partly terrified and partly dissuaded from so doing. This is the second attack that has been made within two months on the hospital, with the same intent. SUDDEN DEATH FROM EXCITEMENT.—An inquest was held yesterday before Mr. William Carter, the Coroner, at the John Bull tavern, Tyer's-street, Lambeth, on the body of Margaret Molton, aged seventy years, the wife of a cow keeper, lately residing at N 0.19, Tyer's-street,who died under very sudden circumstances. From the evidence it appeared that the deceased was blind, but generally enjoyed good health. On Monday afternoon last she was engaged at the wash-tub, when she suddenly fell to the ground, as if from a fit. The landlady's son, who happened to be in the room, ran to her aid, and raised her up, but she was quite insen sible. Mr. Smyth, of Lambeth-walk, surgeon, was called in, but she never rallied, and died shortly afterwards, from an attack of apoplexy, most probably resulting from over ex citement in her domestic duties. The jury returned a verdict of " Death from natural causes." BIRTH EXTRAORDINARY.—OH Thursday last, the 18th instant, at Great Oakley, the wife of Inspector Raison, of a daughter, being her fourth child within two years and four months.—Essex Standard. ACCIDENT AT THE YEW TREE COLLIERY, KING.' SWlNFORD.—Yesterday (Tuesday) seven boys were sent down the shaft early in the morning to brush out the sulphur, when in a short time after their descent, owing to a candle being in the back ground, an explosion of gas took place, which so dreadfully burnt them, that little or no hopes are entertained of their recovery.— Worcester Journal. ExrLosioN or A COAL MlNE.—Wednesday morn ing, an explosion took place in some coal mines belonging to B. Gibbons, Esq., Shut-end, which, we are informed, burnt seven individuals, some of whom are so seriously injured that their recovery is despaired of.—:Worcester Chronicle. PARISH OF ST. GILES, CRIPELEGATE.— The Vicarage of St. Giles', Cripplegate, which has just become vacant by the death of the Rev. F. W. Blomberg, D.D., will be conferred by the Dean and Chapter of St. Paul's on the Venerable William Hale Hale, M.A., Archdeacon of London, and Master of the Charterhouse. The benefice is worth 2,0001. per annum, its actual value at the time of Dr. Blomberg's appointment being nearly 2,5001. per an num. Part of this amount, however, was given np by the Rev. Gentleman, as a permanent endowment for the poor of the parish. Divine service was performed at the parish church yesterday afternoon, and a sermon was preached by the Rev. Mr. Turner, the Lecturer on the Haberdashers' Company's gift, but not the slightest allusion was made to the painful circumstance of Dr. Blom berg's death. THE ROYAL STABLES AT WINDSOR..—Since the ar di3c uo 9 n Y cf r tile of ri t ct e ng tir s y ch r o c , 1 :1 t e t t h t rzu o g r h e o y u a t l m th e e w ex s extensive Wi e ndso a r r ( * th i ft whole of which has recently been entirely removed, and the kamptulicon substituted), it has been found that the wooden divisions of the stalls and other portions of the wood-work in the royal stables are similarly affected. In several of the stables the stalls have been newly constructed, and it is feared, in consequence of the inroads made by the rot, that the whole will have to be removed and undergo a similar process. ALARMING FIRE AT PIMLICO.—Last night, be tween ten and eleven o'clock, a fire, that caused considerable alarm, broke out upon the premises in the occupancy of Mr. Gumbleton, boot and shoemaker, Grosvenor-row, Pimlico. The flames originated from some unknown cause in the front shop, and were first perceived by a police-constable. An immediate alarm was raised, and messengers were sent to give intelligence of the outbreak to the engine-stations; meanwhile the fire continued to spread, so that in a very brief space of time the whole of the stock in the shop be ,p e o d e e i no of one n t e h e b r e o s a c d e p s e l e l e o e f t o t f h fi e a ß m o e y . a l W s ' i o t c h i e a t l y l possible e c p e x a r m o p f e e e d i c i v t t r i i o a o e i P i of Life from Fire arrived, as . well as several engines of the London Brigade, parish, and West of England office. Plenty of water was obtained, from which the firemen set to work most vigorously, but before they could get the mastery over the flames, the whole of the stock in trade was reduced to ashes. Fortunately, Mr. Gumbleton was insured in the Sun Fire-office. FROM THE GALLICIAN FRONTIERS, MARCH H.— The latest accounts from Vienna state, in regard to the future destiny of Cracow, that the important resolution has been taken to divide Gallicia into two distinct governments, viz. that of East and %Vest Gallicia, by which Cracow will be made the capital of the latter. The famine in the western circles of Gallicia, according to report, which we trust is exaggerated, has reached to such a fearful extent, that in some cases the starving people have seized upon the bodies of the dead and devoured them, in order to escape from the agonising death of perishing from hunger. WASTE OF SILVER.—To put the silver edging to muslin, which is always torn off and thrown away before converting the material to use, costs the country 20,0001. a year.— The Builder. Captain Henry Eden, R.N., Private Secretary to the Earl of Auckland, First Lord of the Admiralty, left town - this morning, for Edinburgh, where the gallant officer re mains during the Easter holidays. Mr. Cayley, M.P., is suffering under a severe at tack of influenza and fever, which disables him at present from attending to his parliamentary duties. THE LATE FATAL STEAM-BOAT COLLISION..—AII inquest was held at Gravesend, pursuant to adjournment, on Friday, to inquire into the cause of death of two men, late of the schooner Rose, which was run down by the Royal Victoria Leith steam-ship, in the Thames, off Hole Haven, on the morning of the 28th ult. It was fully proved that the place in which the unfortunate schooner was at anchor is one In which shipping ordinarily resort, as being sheltered from the wind, and out of the ordinary track of the navigation, and the circumstances of the accident were detailed in almost the same terms as when first noticed in our columns. Itwas endeavouredto be proved that the collision was produced only by the steam-ship not answering her helm as readily as might have been expected, but this evidence did not seem to satisfy the jury, who returned a verdict of Manslaughter against David Micklereid, the commander, and appended a recommendation that vessels should be navigated at less speed during the night. t aYh ° W el d5 :1;: SUPPOSED MURDER OF A YOUNG WOMANwa. — i s o n i t n e g r d a a y n a i n ft g e o r e n s oo t n i , n whilst B ath trie e S t, a k c e i r t , y t - h r e o a c d o , roi information communicated to him of such a character as to justify the supposition that a young woman had been most savagely murdered. It a ppears that between twelve and one o'clock t h a t morning (Friday) . a couple of men were engaged emptying a cesspool in a narrow court running from Golden-lane to Whitecross-street, and known by the name of Broad-yard. Shortly after they bad commenced opera tions they came in contact with what they at first imagined to be the body of a newly born child, but which upon fur ther search turned out to be a full - grown woman. The men immediately gave information of the discovery, and after considerable trouble the body was got out. Life was totally extinct. The deceased, who had the whole of her clothing on, even her bonnet, was removed to the workhouse of St. Luke, in the ;City-road, where the master of the house ordered the body to be stripped and washed. The deceased was at once identified by the master as being a poor creature ein cre i a sy t e u ta r hr e es of who had occasionally obtained relief of the parish. She had been living a dissipated life, and had been for some time co h a biting with a man whose name at present it would not be p a r g u e d , en a t na to g h i e v r e. nam Th e e E un li f z o a r b tu et n h atedeceased ,l Robinson. daughter of a respectable family living at Hoxton.

(THIS DAY.) The adjourned general licensing meeting for the parish of St. Martin's-in-the-Fields division, was held this day. The magistrates ;present were, Lord Mont ford (chairman), Mr. Graham, Mr. Welsby. In the case of an application made by Mr. Ireland for a license for a house situate in Northumberland-street, to be called the Northumberland Tavern, Mr. Ballantine appeared in favour of the application ; Mr. D. W. Wire appeared in opposition. Evidence was given of the due service of the notices required by the Act. The applicant in this csse, it appeared, carried on business as a retailer of beer and a purveyor of ham and beef sandwiches, and was also a clerk and collector at Mitchell's Scotch ale stores, ilungerford-market. The application was presented signed by nearly 100 persons. Petitions were presented praying the Court not to grant the license, from persons residing in Northumbv land-street, from the agent of the Duke of Northumber land, from other persons in the neighbourhood, and from the body of licensed victuallers, on the ground that the wants of the district were amply supplied by public houses already. Also a petition signed'hy a number of persons who had previously signed a petition in favour of the applicant, setting forth that their names had been obtained by misrepresentation, and praying the Court to refuse the license. Mr. D. W. WIRE then proceeded to argue that there was no public necessity for this additional licensed house. The house was situated at the corner of a narrow thoroughfare, of not more than 5 feet in width ; the house was not more than 106 feet from a house already licensed, known as the Northumberland Arms, and at about the same distance from the Ship and Shovel, a house which had been well conducted by the present pro prietor for the last twenty-fiveyears, and which afforded ample accommodation, by means of a commodious tap• room and parloir, for the wants of the customers visiting that house. He felt quite satisfied that the Court would not, in a quiet and retired neighbourhood of not in the sfightegii- -4 0 4,.. ! ...-...erredr — rar. -- it might be said by his Learned Friend that there was a great traffic through this narrow thoroughfare, but he apprehended that that was not sufficient to induce the Court to grant a license to the applicant. From the ex perience which that Court had had in matters of this kind, he felt assured that they would refuse the license in the present case. It did not at all follow, that because the applicant had obtained a good trade as a retailer of beer, and a purvvor of ham and beef sandwiches, that therefore it was a fit and proper house to be licensed as a tavern. He might be an industrious and enterprising person, but it might happen that by granting this license the Court would be only adding another to the list of those distressing cases which were so often brought before the Court as incapable, from want of ne cessary support, to meet the demands made upon them. He hoped, therefore, that the Court would in the present instance feel it their duty to refuse the license. Mr. noCIIE, the clerk to the magistrates, said that a letter had been received by Sir J. Marshall, the lam - Hord of the house, praying the magistrates not to grant the license. Mr. BALLANTINE, upon this, handed in a letter from that gentleman, withdrawing his letter and recommend ing the applicant to the favourable consideration of the Court. The Learned Counsel then, on behalf of the applicant, contended that this house, if licensed, would afford accommodation of a nature very much needed, not only in that district itself, but throughout the whole of the metropolis—a house that would afford the greatest possible accommodation at the least possible cost to a respectable class of people, such as those who resided in the neighbourhood. With respect to the Ship and Shovel, it could not for a moment be contended that li censing this house could affect the interests of the pro prietor, who had conducted it for the last twenty-five years in a most respectable and creditable manner. That house was principally used by persons connected with H un gerford-market. And with respect to the Northumber land Arms, that was a house principally used by barge men, coalheavers, and other persons connected with the wharfs along the river. This house, if licensed, would not, therefore, in the slightest degree affect the interests of that place. The room was then ordered to be cleared. Upon the re-admission of the parties we were informed that the magistrates had decided upon refusing the license. License refused accordingly. Several other applications were disposed of, and the Court adjourned. SCOTCH EXCHANGE BANKS. The following circular, which has lately been in course of transmission by one of the Scotch Exchange Banks to solicitors and others in the different towns in the north, will account for much of the support which the share markets (in that part of the kingdom at least) continue to receive, and for the means by which calls are paid. It will be seen that not only are deposits in vited at 5 per cent. interest, but that a commission (the amount of which is not stated, and which it may be in ferred is a matter of conscience and arrangement) is allowed to such professional gentlemen as may be suc cessful in persuading their clients to place their money at the disposal of the institution. Udder these circum stances, allowing for expenses of management and profit, it would appear that the rate charged to the cus tomers of the bank can scarcely in any case be less than 7or 8 per cent.—a fact which, taken in conjunction with the implied circumstance that the securities advanced upon are of the " best description, would indicate a degree of pressure in the north beyond anything we have hitherto been aware of. As a large proportion of these advances are made, it is to be presumed, upon shares of incomplete lines, which at the best pay no more than 4 or 5 per cent. to the holders, it becomes an important question how long these parties will think it advisable to pay the extra rate charged by the bank, rather than to raise money by selling some part of what they possess. That the bank contemplate no speedy amelioration is evi denced by the fact that the commission to the profes sional gentlemen is allowed only upon their negociatiog deposits "likely to remain for some years, or at all events for not less than twelve months." It would also be interesting to learn the precise quality of the securi ties received by the institution, and also the margin pro vided for depreciation, although it is fair to remark that this is a point which the bank is in some measure en titled to keep to itself, since the temptation held out in the shape of guarantee to depositors is not so much the soli dity of the pledges upon which its advances arc made as •' the capital of the company, and the number and wealth '66, St. Vincent-street, Glasgow, Marel - 9. " Dear Sir, —I beg leave to inform you that the direc tors of this company have come to a resolution to ad vance the rate of interest allowsd on deposits to five per cent. This will be intimated by circular to each depositor, and by advertisements in the newspapers, but I beg leave to trouble you with this special an nouncement. _ " The demand fur money in our market still continues so ample on the best securities, that although nu advance is contemplated on the fixed rate at which all loans granted by the company are charged, the directors are thus willing to allow to the depositors the full advantage of the present rise in the value of money. " In thus advancing the rate of interest paid by the company without any corresponding advance in the rate charged, there is an evident present loss of profit to the shareholders. But I hope and believe that this liberal policy will so increase the number of the company's customers and the amount of.their transactions, that ulti mately the shareholders will be greater gainers than if the directors had pursued an opposite policy. "I shall, therefore, be obliged if you will take every means in your power to make it known among your friends and clients that, for such sums as can be invested for any considerable length of time, they may obtain an interest of 5 per cent. per annum, while their security is beyond all question, Rot only from the capital of the company, but from the number and wealth of its partners. " I am, Sir, your most obedient servant, " G. KINNEAR, Manager. " I beg leave to add that a commission is allowed to professional gentlemen who negotiate deposits with the company, if the money is likely to remain for some yea's, or at all events for nut less than twelve months, and it will give me much pleasure to treat with you on this footing." MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of March 26.) SUOAa.—To•day a further fall ensued in the value of nearly every sort of Colonial Sugar, the quantity brought to market being more than the home trade could take off. Of West India Muscovado, the small quantity only of 200 hhds and tierces found buyers at lower rates, making the total sales for the week only 500 hhds and tierces, and the fall is during that time. REFINED.—To-day no further rise took place in the value of Refined Sugar, but all sorts are wanted for home use at former rates, and the supply is scanty. Bonded Crushed Sugar is with difficulty to be obtained under 37s per cwt for first quality, so scanty is the supply, and large the orders on hand uuexecuted. MAURITIUS.—This afternoon two parcels of Mautitius Sugar, amounting to 11,429 bags 339 casks and 90 trcs were submitted to public competition, a fair proportion of which consisted of strong working descriptions; for even these there was less demand, and prices fell Is per cwt; yellow sorts met with little attention, and the sales taken were is to is 6d per cwt under those of Tuesday's sale, on brown the fall ls. The chief part of the Sugar, however, sold. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon 818 bags and 76 chests of Bengal Sugar were offered at public sale, and sold at about the former value. Madras Is' littte - wanted, and 1;413 bags at auction were taken in at moderate rates.. I:oar:sass—To-day there was no, public sale, and pri vately only 150 cases of brown Macao were sold at 23a Gd per cwt. MOLASSES.—By private treaty there is only a limited de mand for West India; at public sale 171 puns Demerara were taken in at 23s for middling quality; 125 puns of Barbadoes at 25s for good ; 58 puns of St Kitts at 235, and 68 puns 6 hhds St Vincents at 245, being about the former value. COFFEE.-This afternoon two parcels of Ceylon Coffee were submitted to public competition, and amounted to 1,550 bags. There was little desire shown to purchase, and a part only sold at a fall on former rates of 6d to Is. TEA.—AII kinds are cheaper than they were at this period in 14346, notwithstanding the large consumption. Congou met with little attention, although there are sellers at mode rate rates. Pouchong is little wanted. For Souchong the demand has been limited. The better descriptions of Yoang Hyson have been operated in with more freedom, and the parcels sold were at full rates. Of the lower sorts of Green large parcels have been sold, owing to the low rates that have been taken ; in good and fine a fair business has been done at about late prices. RICE.—To - day the market was in a dull state for East India Rice ; and 1,384 bags Madras at auction were taken in Is under former prices, viz., good yellow rather dusty, Bengal grain, 18s to 18s 6d per cwt. Srims.—Although Black Pepper can be obtained rather under previous rates, still all qualities have been operated in with caution privately for home consumption as well as for exportation. White met with little attention by private treaty; at public sale 11 bags were sold at ,3isl to 4hd. For Cassia Lignea prices rule firm, the demand being good and supply small. The arrivals keep small, and the stock is less than last year ; but the deliveries are smaller, and prices are fully as high. The high rates insisted upon for Pimento caused the home and export demand to be limited this week by private treaty. At Public sale 40 bags were taken in at 5%d for mid rather coarse, 5 1 4 d was offered. For Ginger the market is im proving ; the demand privately has been good for all sorts. For Nutmegs the home demand is good, and exporters have been buyers to a fair extent. Mace is ,wanted; also the better sorts of Cloves. In the valne of Cinnamon there is no variation to is tice ' • the inferior and coarse sorts are ne glected, but geed and fine are in fair request, and the supply is small. FRUlT.—There has been several fresh arrivals lately of Currants, three cargoes of Chesme and Red Smyrna Raisins, and a cargo of Valencia Raisins from Liverpool ; the market has been rather.quiet this week, the exporters taking only small parcels of Currants. Of old Red Smyrna Raisins some sales have been made at 31s 6d to 32s for shipping. SPIRITS. — The nearest value of Leeward Island is 3s 6d to 3s 8d for proof strength; but the amount of business transacted has been trifling. East India is heavy of dis posal, and can be obtained at 3s 4d for proof with certificate. The business concluded in Jamaica has been trifling in all sorts, and prices are nominal. In Demerara scarcely any purchases have been made, and the nearest value of strong is 4s 10d to 5s per gallon. The stock of Brandy has been fur ther increased, and there are sellers upon reduced terms. Geneva is wanted for exportation, and several parcels have been sold, common at 2s 7d to 2s 8d; fine at 3s to 3s 6d per gallon. For British Corn Spirits and Gin prices remain the same. OILS.—For Linseed Oil prices have slightly given way. Rape Seed Oil cannot be quoted higher, but many parcels have been sold. Olive met with less attention, still holders remain firm, on account of the moderate stock. Of Cocoa Nut holders are enabled to obtain the high rates of 47s to 50s per cwt for fair to fine quality, Of Palm holders are inclined to realise, but the purchases made have been to a small extent. Lard Oil is in fair re quest, at 45s to:sos. For Sperm a much better demand pre vailed, and prices have improved. For Cod Oil the limited business transacted was at 271 5s to 271105. Seal is little wanted. Southern has been di spos ed of W a fair extent, but not at better prices. theT TALLOW.—Prices and .— faryo perm for oa Russian pnak e o r s n and chandlers all the week; 50s 6d to 51s per cwt are the e the demand es heve h f a s n t b h e e e v n g m v e i t n e d w prices accepted for fine Petersburgh yellow candle. For deli very in the last three months of the firma, the demand is however good and quotations range at 46s 6d per cwt. Home-made is little wanted, and there are sellers at 49s 6d to 50s net cash, the supply being on the increase. For other sorts of Tallow the market is in a dull state, and prices are Lowering. A corn circular, dated Cork, March 23, gives the following report :—" Wheat has fallen 2s. per 2801 b. ' • oats have fallen 2s. per 1961 b. ; and barle y has fallen ls. per 2241 b. Flour is now forcing on the bakers, as arrivals from England continue heavy ; prices of all descriptions are 2s. per cwt. lower. The arrivals of Indian corn are very heavy, but several of the cargoes have come in in bad condition ; no transactions are taking place, and the quotations are quite nominal : the quantity of bad corn now accumulating here is immense. Sixty-one vessels have arrived since the 16th inst., viz., 45 with Indian corn, 9 with wheat, 5 with beans, 1 with oats, and 1 with barley; the whole registering over 9,000 tons : 18 discharge here with Indian corn. The weather is variable, with a great deal of rain, which has done infinite service to the country, particularly to the young wheats. There is a large breadth under wheat, much more than usual. A good deal of oats has been sown, but nothing equal to last year, the small farmer having no means nor encouragement to do so. It is too early to judge of what potatoes may be planted, but it cannot be otherwise than trifling. Prepara tion is making for barley, the sowing for which is on a mode rate scale." PROVISIONS FROM THE UNITED STATES.—Twerity " six vessels from the United States were reported at Liverpool bagson the a 11 8,3 bushels 5 h instant, s 2 t Indian4B ,100 barrelscorn ; and Izo o barrels of flo l ur , 7 2 ()3s of Indian corn meal. 1ELll•F FOR SCOTLAND.—The sum of three hundred and thirty pounds has been remitted to Edinburgh as the proceeds of a private fancy bazaar, held at Stratheden-house, by Lady Stratheden and Campbell, with the assistance of her friends, for the relief of the Highlanders. AMICABLE ASSEMBLIES. The last for the season of these brilliant reunions took place in the large room of the London Tavern last evening, when about three hundred of the elite were assembled. The present is the eleventh season of the society, which is connected with the Literary Institu tion, Aldersgate-street, and is one of its most attractive branches. The arrangements for the supper were liberal. The greatest praise is due to the stewards, Messrs. Britten, jun., Harris, Fryer, Singer, and Bar nard. For everything appertaining to the due regula tion of such a select society the Amicable Assembly is decidedly a model. Mr. Adams' band was in attendance, and dancing was kept up to a late, or rather early, hour in the morning. SANATORY REFORM. A public meeting of the Liberties of Westminster Sanatory Association was held yesterday evening, at the Western Literary Institution, Leicester-square; the Right Hon. Lord Ashley in the chair. The attendance was not very large. The CHAIRMAN said that it gave him great pleasure to meet those assembled on the present occasion, who had for their object the improvement of the physical condition of the people, and through the improvement of the physical condition of the people, the improvement of their mental condition. Whatever facts could be adduced on this question could only go to show the false principles upon which they had hitherto proceeded. When they considered how large a portion of tfie popu• lation was affected by this question, it was sufficient to invest the question with importance. Throughout the metropolis they found a want of ventilation, and this want was well known to be the cause of want of health. He considered that the want of attention to subjects like the present was one of the greatest impediments to human improvement that existed. It was well known the effects which the noxi ous influences which were at present permitted to exist, without any control or any attempt at prevention, were injurious not only to human life, but even to the pe cuniary condition of the community. The circumstances to which he alluded were attested by the physician in their natural effects ; but there was a higher considera- tion, namely, that of the eternal welfare of the community To prove the injurious effects of what they all depre cated they had only to consult the ministers of religion, who could testify to the depraving effects of the present system. He believed there was no greater evil to the human race than habits of intemperance. But he had no doubt these very habits were induced by the perni cious atmosphere in which a large portion of the population resided, which had a tendency to produce lassitude and depression, which called for that immediate stimulus which they could obtain. He did not mean to say that the working classes of England alone had habits of intemperance peculiar, but it' it ex isted to a greater extent than in any other classes, it was owing to circumstances among which there was none more powerful than the want of ventilation, which, as he had already stated, was calculated to produce in- temperance. Ho thought that, under the s se circum stances, nothing could better deserve the attention of the public or the interference of the Legislature than the question they had assembled to promote. Dr. ALDO moved the following resolution:— " That, in order to promote the physical and moral condition of the people, the meeting concurs in the ne cessity of the entire removal of cesspools, and a general introduction of water-closets, sewers, and drains, com bined with an ample supply of water at all seasons, at as high a pressure as shall be found practicable and ne cessary, and that the health and social comforts of all classes would be improved by the daily cleansing of all streets, courts, yards, and alleys." Mr. COCHRANE seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously. Dr. Gtrr moved the following resolution:— " That in consequence of the deficiency of light and proper ventilation in the habitations of the poorer classes, as well as in all workshops and factories, this meeting believes it to be highly necessary for the improvement of the physical condition of the people that these important subjects should form a portion of any sanatory measure to be introduced into Parliament." Mr. Jorm MARSHALL seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously. Dr. BRISDONE moved, and Mr. WALKER seconded, the following resolution, which was carried unani mously:— " That, for the promotion of public health and de cency, the westing urgently recommends the introduc tion of public, or gratuitous water-closets, for the ac commodation of the poor, the promotion of baths and washhouses, and the abolition of interments in towns." Thanks were voted to, and acknowledged by the Noble Chairman, after which the meeting separated. Some disturbances, caused by the dearness of pro visions, took place at Prague on the 14th. The mob broke into four bakers' shops, and plundered them. Troops were ordered to be in readiness, in case of their services being re quired, and the wealthier inhabitants have taken measures for supplying bread to such as may be in want. The advance made by the English capitalists to the Bank of France, and which is now in course of repay ment, has been generally understood to have been 800,0007. It appears, however, that the amount was 1,000,0001., which, under present circumstances, is so much the more fa vourable. Of this sum about 800,0001. or more is believed to remain in this country, the transmission having been delayed. • bilious or sick F R AMPTON'S PILL OF ITEALTH...-...0r headache, indigestion, and for the whole train of symptoms arising from a weak stomach, or vitiated bilious secretion, are pre-eminently successful.

THE ORIGINAL METALLIC STROP (with Four sides), for KEE I'ING RAZORS In PERFECT ORI)ER• . The METALLIC TABLET STROP was invented in the year 1816, by George Saunders, of New York, and was favourably re ceived by the public as for surpassing any other Razor Strop. The first cutlers in Europe, after trial, have acknowledged its superiority, and many use it in preference to the Hone, the effect being much more powerful, and requires neither oil or water. A keen, smooth edge to a razor, so necessary to shave with comfort, 13 obtained and kept without having recourse to any other means. The American Institute for the Encouragement of Science, in con sideration of its superior value and qualities, awarded the Inventor a silver medal and diploma. To Gentlemen who shave themselves the following query is pro posed :—Why do all the first cutlers in Europe use and recommend Saunders's Four-sided Tablet Razor Strop ? The answer is, simply because it is the only one that elves to a razor a keua and smooth edge. DEPOT, 218, STRAND. ebtrry E.Dttton RAILWAY COMMITTEES. (THIS DAY.) HOUSE OF COMMONS. GROUP I. The Select Committee appointed to consider the merits of the Bills compri ei it this group re-assembled at the usual hour this morning; Lord Granville Somer set in the chair. THE SOIITH.EASTMC SCHEMES. Mr. MacGregor's cross-examilation was resumed by Mr. Talbot, but his evidence in chief remained unshaken in the least degree. At the l as t meetinlhesio, the company paid a dividend at the ra t e o f 6 per cent p e r annum, and he en tertained the hope th a t ere long be line would yield 10 increased, per cent. Under his own management the traffic had consider ably and the lines nowbefbr6 the Committee were absolutely ne cessary f or the accommodation of the public. Mr. Bl'Grego r was a l so cross - exam i n ed by several Learned Gentlemen, who repres en t e d o pposing landowners, but it was stated, that the c om p any were qu ite ready to make fair and liberal arrangements with all parties whose property would be injured by the lines. Off re-examination, Mr. Mae Gregor stated that he based his hope that the concern would eventually return 101. per cent, up on the expeetAition that the Committee would concede the lines undo discussion. Mr. T. 13. Fern, solicitor to the South-Eastern Com - pony, proved that so far back as 1834 the company pro jected lines similar to those before the Committee, but the opposition of the landholders led to their abandon ment, and eventually the company was forced to adopt their present circuitous route, The Committee adjourned at half-past four until Mon day, at twelve. WEST FLANDERS RAILWAYS. (THIS DAY.) pallfisqll'illitlifidertasini was held this day, at - one o'clock, at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street, to transact the ordinary business of the company. W. P. Richards, Esq., occupied the chair. The SECRETARY read the advertisement and the re port, from which we extract the following paragraphs:— " In laying before the proprietors the statement of the proceedings of the company during the last half year, and of its position and prospects for the future, the directors have to report that the portion of the line be tween Bruges and Thourout was completed on the 14th September last, and opened on the 6th October. The line has since been opened a short distance further to Lichtervelde, making in all a length of fourteen miles now opened. " The directors, whilst using every exertion to open the first short section . of the line, had reason to expect that a further length would very speedily have followed; in this, however, they were disappointed. The winter, which set in in Flanders with unusual severity on the 6th December, and continued with no available inter mission until the first week of March, necessarily sus pended the works of the bridge over the Lys at Courtrai as well as the brickwork on all other parts of the line. Considerable progress, however, had been made pre viously, and the piers of the Lys bridge carried up above the water level. The unfinished works suffered no in jury from the severe weather, and the whole are now advancing rapidly towards completion. The frost also materially interfered with all the earthworks, so as to make it impossible to complete the line to Courtrai by Christmas, as had been expected at the date of the last half-yearly report. " Proceeding onwards from Lichtervelde, great pro gress has been made in the direction of Roulers, distant 5i miles. This section, it is expected, will be com pleted within a week. The population of Roulers is about 11,000. " Between Roulers and the towns of Iseghem and In gelmunster the works are nearly finished, and be tween the latter town and Courtrai they are in a forward state. The earthworks, with the exception of one cut ting in Lendelede, about 500 yards in length, and a maximum depth of 18 feet, are almost entirely on the surface, and the reports of the engineer and contractors lead the directors confidently to expect, that this further section, which will complete the communication between the State lines, will be ready for traffic by the end of June. The works on the Lys Bridge at Courtrai form the measure in time for the whole " With reference to the traffic to be obtained on these lines, and the consequent success of the undertaking, the opinion of the directors remains unaltered. The calculations on which the prospects of returns were in the first instance based, were made out in 1845 from data derived from' the existing traffic aid other statistical details. These calculations received material corroboration from the work of M. Desart, published in March, 1846. Reference was made to this work in the last report of the directors, and it was then shown, that, assuming the principles of M. Desart to be applicable to West Flanders, as he had shown them to be to the dis tricts traversed by the State lines, the traffic case of the West Flanders lines would be made out to the full extent of the anticipations. " Without, therfore, drawing hasty conclusions from the partial experience on the line opened, the directors consider themselve borne out in stating, that the indica tions thus far lead to the conclusion that the average res ceipts obtained on the State lines (in 1846 they were 1,6131. per mile) will be realised on those of West Flan ders. During the year 1845 the receipts on the Govern ment lines produced a profit of 4i per cent. on an outlay of 17,5001. per mile, and it appears that in 1846 the profit amounted to 44 per cent. on that cost ;—it is clear that the West Flanders lines will not cost one half of the above sum per mile, and, if so, it necessarily that on an equal receipt the dividend will b e double that of the State lines. follows " The directors do not anticipate this result imme diately on the opening of the line--time will be required for the development of the goods traffic especially; but the directors entertain no doubt that the amounts above indicated will at no distant period be realised." The balance-sheet, made up to Dec. 31, 1846, exhibits a balance at the banker's and in investments of 73,9981. 17s. Ild., the receipts having been 288,5941. 175., and the _ _ expenditure 204,595/. 19s. Id. The CHAIRMAN said, that although less progress had been made than was anticipated, yet enough bad been shown to give some idea of the cost of construction and the expected traffic. They had not yet b een enabled to ascertain what the cost o f management wo uld be, and on these three things did the success of a railwa y de pend. The opening of the line from Brug es to Thourout gave them excellent d a t a on which to fou nd an idea of the cost of construction of the whole line. The distance was 114 miles, which involved a total cost of 67,4771., or an average amount of 5,750/. per mile. This was about the cost of the Belgian lines; and the activity already manifested in that portion of the line which was opened was quite equal to the activity upon the State lines. He did not think they were too sanguine, therefore, in anti cipating a double profit to that which re sulte d from the Belgian railways. At Thourout they met with the first impediment; for, in the first place, a difference arose between themselves and the Minister of Public Works, which led to some correspondence, and of course delayed in some degree the progress of the works. Then they had to meet the increased demands of the landlords, who supposed that time was of that first importance to them, that they wo uld submit to any thing in order to avoid delay. He was happy to sa y that this impediment was got over, and that the y were now, if possible, in a better position than the y were before. They had: had also a very severe winter to con tend against. The Chairman then paid a well-merited compliment to Mr. Desart for his ingenious principle of testing the expected traffic between towns. The prin ciple on which that gentleman founded his calculations was, that the traffic between any two towns was in the direct ratio of their populations, and varied inversely as the distance between them. That gentleman had, by analysis of the entire returns, been able to establish a number to represent every distance from one mile and a quarter to above 150 miles. The Chairman concluded by calling on Mr.Tubitt to state the present position of the works, &c.: Mr. Cunirr recapitulated at great length the state ments adverted to in the report. Mr. DISNEY moved that the report be received. Mr. CAS! seconded the motion. In answer to severa l q uestions, ou r The tr ai CHAIRMAN woudbe understated 6,00 the 01. p expenseermile. from Bruges to C The stations were very modest thing s, and onl y ad apted to sing le lines. When the nex t call should be made t h e compa n y would have a surplus sum after finish ing the line to Courtrai. A vote of thanks was given to the Chairman and directors, and the meeting separated.

Auctioneer and Lraid Valuator, has recently - published a pamphlet, entitled,' A Defence of the Landlords of Ireland, with Rernarka.on the Relation between Landlord and Tenant.' The 'Dublin Evening Packet,' in reviewing this work, gives the following cha racter of its author :—` Mr. Simpson, we need scarcely remind our readers, is an Englishman of vast expe rience in matters relating to the improvement and value of land in his own country. He is, inereover, a gentleman of most com prehensive views, and possesses an understanding naturally strong, and a stock of practical knowledge and sterling sense, which falls to the lot of very few persons in his own or any other rank of life. With the social condition of Ireland he has made it his business, al most as a matter of necessity, to make himself thoroughly ac quainted. He feels for her wants, and has contributed as much, per haps, as any man in his time, to improve her resources, by encou raging the investment of British capital in every department of Irish industry. Suck a witness as this we therefore hold to be beyond the reach of suspicion on the score either of interest or partiality. His testimony must he regarded as invaluable, as it is unquestionably unimpeachable.' " March 17. U.NITED SERVICE MAGAZINE, and NAVAL and MILITARY JOURNAL, for APEIL, 1847.
