11,1 U '47 .1% 17{,„ t -A "A AND COLMEROTAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, Two o'CLocK. Lett era from Liverpool repor that th Cotton Alarket yesterday closed with a very (life appear ance, and prices of all descriptions were wi hout any Material alteration. The sales were estimated at 5,000 bales, 500 of which were taken on specula-. tier). The Railway Share Market closed dull, but Prices were steady. For a week past the failure of Messrs. Taylor and bright, as a consequence of the stoppage of Messrs. garrison and Watson's Bank, has been spoken of 55 imminent, but it was announced yesterday after noon that the suspension had actually taken place. At present nothing has been ascert lined with regard to assets or liabilities. The more. favourable ad vices received yesterday from America have pro duced increased confidence among the manufac turing interests, and several failures, which were expected to follow those reported in New York, will, it is now thought, be averted. A small quantity of gold, viz., 8,000?., was.taken into the Bank yesterday, and it is believed that Some of the Australian supplies just announced will be similarly appropriated, but the greater portian or the remittances by the True Briton has already been purchased for the Continent. The advices received from India have formed the leading topic of couversstion in city circles since their arrival, and judging from the tenor of the Various opinions expressed they would appear to Lave given general satisfaction, because it is evident that the rebels have been unsuccessful in most of their movements. The commercial intelligence i 5 also rather favourable, the Banks having lowered their rate of interest, and most of the Principal import markets are reported to have exhibited signs of improvement. The exchanges On the whole are rather more encouraging, both in India, and China, and it is, con sequently, presumed that our monthly exports of Specie will be still further diminished. The last two or three steamers have conveyed a smaller quantity than for some time previously, and every variation in the exchanges of a satisfactory cha racter ten - Is to create confidence in the future specie movements. The arrivals from Australia continue large ; and, although the remittances from New pork are restricted to a very insignificant total, the aggregate imparts of gold and sliver are still in excess of the shipments to the East and elsewhere. In the discount market there is no abatement of Pressure, the demand on commerci'd account still being exceedingly active. Provision is being made for the 4th proximo, when a heavy amount of mer cantile bills becames due. The arrangements con nected with the specie remittances at the same Period, and the liquidation of the half-monthly ac count in stocks and shares, also augment the gene -51 inquiry. The reaction of s per cent. which occurred in the Paris Bourse yesterday is ascribed to the decl i n e 'ere, and some realisation of profits after the recent advance. It has been announced that the dividend on the Great Western of Canada Railway shares will be at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum. The English Stock Market partially has re gained the decline which took place yesterday, since more favourable construction is now put upon t he advices from the East, and some of those 1 / The sold upon the arrival of the intelli genee have re-purchased. This has strengthened t he tone of the market, and as there is some de kand for stook on behalf of the public, the ten ' dents is upwards, but an attempt, which appears anccessful, is made on the part of the dealers to Prevent a decided movement in that direction. koney is worth 6 per cent , and the attention of the brokers and jobbers is chiefly occupied with the a ettlement. Consols have been 90 to 90k for money, and 90k 1. for the 14th proximo. They are how rather flatter, viz., 89k 9J and 90 to 90k re aPectively. Exchequer Bills are 10s.- to 6s. die., and the Bonds are 98,4. A. moderate business has been recorded in the Foreign Market, but there is no speculative activity. Turkish 6 per Cents. have improved to 94-, 7 to 95 k , and the 4 per Cents. guaranteed are 958 ; Dutch 2 i •per Cents. are 651 ; Mexican, 211 ; Grenada New Active, 21 ; and Brazilian, 5 per Cents., 101 4 ; Russian, Spanish, and Belgian Stocks are at nomi nal values. The dividend on Turkish 6 per Cent. Bonds is clue on the 18th proximo. The following are tire nominal prices of Foreign stocks :—Grenadr. Deferred Bonds, 52 6 ; IVlex - can, 21i ; Peruvian 4i per Cents., 78 '79i ; ditto 3 per Cents., 55 56 ; Portuguese 3 per Cents., 'hi 45 ; Russian 5 per Cents., 109 111 ; ditto 4 5. per Cents., 97 99 ; Spanish 3 per Cents., 40/1 ; ditto New Deferred, 253 -g ; ditto CertlicAtes, ; ditto Passive, 51 6. The arrangements connected with the settlement of the half-monthly account in the Railway Sh►re Market have occupied the chief attention of the dealers and speculators this morning, and the trans actions in most instances have had reference to that event. Prices generally show a slight improvement. Caledonian, Eastern Counties, Great Western, Midland, North-Eastern, York and North-Western have advanced about 10s., and North-Eastern Ber- Wick it., Manchester, Sheffieldond Lincoln declined s a-, North British and South-Eastern 103., Chester and Holyhead, Edinburgh, Perth; and Dundee, and Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton were at previous quotations. The Foreign undertakings Were at almost nominal value?. Namur and Liege declined about ss. In the Colunial market prices Were rather firmer. East Indian improved 108. Grand Trunk of Canada, Great Western of Canada, Geelon.; and Melbourne, and Great Indian Peniu- Pular were a shade higher. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares are Much neglected, and there is no 'change to report 1 , 1 1 prices. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK.

RACE BETWEEN CHARLES LEWIS (OF BETHNAL-GREEN AND THOMAS ROBINSON (OF m ILL-END) —This race came off on Monday at Mr. Robert Sadl.T's, Gerratt-lane, Wandsworth. The distance Wel 120 yards. Lewis bad the impel' ant advantage in his favour of being several years younger than his opponent, and his had the effect of causing his friends to be so confident of victory that they et once made him a decided favourite in betting. free.y laying'the odds of 7 to 4; and in some icstances 2 to 1. After making one false attempt they succeeded in bounding off, and a finer or more even start could not have been possibly effected. No sooner had they got fairly to their stride than the struggle was commenced at a tremendous Pace, the competitors in splendid style keeping well together until about 60 yards of the die tnneu had been accomplished, when Lewis, despite the ehrts of his opponent, gradually stole from him, and n t in a winner by three yards.

The election of Lord Mayor for the ensuing official year took place this morning at Guildhall. There was a Large attendance of the Livery and the public ; and in consequence of the notoriety gained by Sir R. W. Carden (the senior alderman next the chair, and next in rotation for the Mayor; lty), in the evidence given by him before a committee of the House of Commons, rela te the opening of public-houses on Seindays, greater in terest was manifested in the proceedings than usual. At 12 o'clock the Lord Mayor, accompanied by the Sher:ffi (Mr. Ald. Laurence and Mr. Allen), the Com mon Sergeants, Alderman Sir P. W. Carden, Alderman Kennedy, Alderman Wire, the City Rernem brancer and the other officials, in their robes of office, proceeded to St. Lawrence Church, Old Jewry, where the prayers were read by the Rev. Mr. Calvert. The set mon was preached by the Rev. Albert Alston, M.A., of St. John's College, Cambridge, chaplain to the Lord Mayor, from let Cor., ctap. iV.; 2d verse—"lt is required in stewards that a man may be found faithful." It is a singular circumstance that the procession to the church was beaded by Mr. Thomas Rose, in his robes of office as deputy bridgemaster, the gentleman against whom Sir R. W. Carden obtained a summons on Satur day at the Mansion-house for publishing libellous matter against him. On the return of the procession to the Guildhall, shortly after one o'clock the Lord Mayor took the chair. There were present besides the aldermen at church Alderman Cubitt, Alderman Rose, Alderman Carter, Alderman Sir J. Musgrove, Alderman Humphrey, Alderman Sir J. Duke, M.P., Alderman Sir G. Carrell, Alderman Copeland, Alderman Sir G. F. Moon, Alder man E. H. Muggeridge, Alderman Salomons, the Recorder, Mr. J. J. Mechi, Mr. Keates, the late sheriff, Mr. Crossley, the late senior under-sheriff, Mr. Potter, Secondary, Mr. Nullard and Mr. Parker, the two new under-sheriffs, Sec._Sec. The Crier having made the usual proclamation— The RECORDER came forward and addressed the meet ing. He said they had now to exercise the important privilege of electing a Lord Mayor for the year ensuing. The livery would be left in the possession of the Hall for that purpose, and he was sure they would well know bow to discharge the duties that would devolve upon them. (Cheers.) The Lord Mayor and Aldermen then returned. Three cheers were given for the Lord Mayor (Alderman Finnis), and a groan for Alderman Carden. The Common Sergeant next came forward and read the nomination of the aldermen below the chair who bad filled the office of Sheriff and were eligible for Lord Mayor, viz.:—Alderman Sir R. W. Carden—(cheers and hisses)—Alderman Wire— (loud cheers)—Alderman Carter—(" Another time")—Alderman Cubitt— (cheers) —Alderman Muggeridge—(cheers)—and Alderman Kennedy, whose name was received with hisses, cries of "Oh, eh," and "How about the British Bank ?" Mr. Anderton stood forward, and said that be ap peared before the Livery for the pus pose of opposing the election of Sir R. W. Carden. (Loud cheers, hisses, and great confusion.) Mr. Sheriff LAWRENCE appealed to the livery to give Mr. Anderton a fair and impartial hearing, if it was his intention to propose a candidate in opposition to Sir W. Carden,; otherwise he would be out of order. (Hear and cheers.) Mr. ANDEBTON again attempted to address the livery, bet was met with hisses and cries of "Down," inter mingled with some cheering. He then said that without consulting Mr. Alderman Finnis he should propose him for reelection, and in the event of his declining to accept it, they should elect Alderman Wire. He had no obj:•otion to Alderman Sir U. W. Carden personally, but he had a great objection to. Lim as a public man. He disapproved of his politics and conduct as a magis trate, especially his arbitrary conduct towards the publicans. (Cheers.) At the conclusion of his address he exhibited a placard " Vote for Lord Mayor and Alderman Wire." The CITY CRIER then called over the names for the selection of the livery, which from a rough guess of those in front of the reporters, appeared to be as fol- lows Alderman Carden, 100 ; Alderman Wire, between 200 and 300 ; Mr. Alderman Carter, none—(Cries " Wait his time")—Alderman Cubitt, between 80 and 90 ; Alderman Sir 11. Muggeridge, 2 or 3 ; Alderman Kennedy, uone— (Hisses and cries of " How about the British Bank")—A lderman lose, none—(Yes, in his 13 I turn.) 13 13 For the Lord Mayor nearly evtry band was held up in his favour. Mr. Sheriff LAWRENCE after consulting with Mr. Sheriff Dillon, and the officials, declared the selection to 131070 fallen on Alderman Sir R. W. Carden and Mr. Al derman Wire. The announcement was received with great disappro bation, from its being considered that the great majority of hands held up were in favour of the Lori Mayor (Fionis), and Mr. Alderman Wire. The Sheriffs then retired to the Court of Aldermen and informed them that the Livery hal decided in favour of Alderman Sir It. W. Carden and Alderman Wire. On the retr.rn of the Court to the Common Hall, The RECORDER announced that the Court of Aldermen had ticcted Sir R. W. Csrien Lord Mayor for the year ensuing. (Cheers and hisses.) Sir It. W. CARDEN then returned thanks, and after a vote of thanks to the retiring Lord Mayor and Sheriffs, the proceedings teruonated. THE LATE Aintuur, BOXER.—The gallant admiral boat, holdiug his Lain awl bilking to every one he met. was about 65 years of ag e . In a second be was in his his boat was seen in every' part of the harbour, and often in the bay, even in rough weather. From day break till sunset he might be seen rowing about like a hunted pirate, rather short in statue, very active, quick, an , l expeditious. Sailor-like, blunt, straightforward, and by report generally liked. Such I found Admiral Boxer. —Sayer's Culinary Campaign. THE RECRUITING SERGEANTS LAST RESOURCE.— 35 27 14 4i Several recruiting parties belonging to her Majesty's t.rtes have been sejaurning in the neighbourhood of Taunton for corns weeks past. Surely there ought to be no lack of enlistment where fl.rning placards, in all the colours of the rainbo w, meet the gaze of "smart young men," in such language as the following:—"Englishmen! You who have strong arms and stunt hearts, have you not heard the dying wail of your outraged and murdered countrymen, calling up >n you to be up and avenge them? You that have sisters and sweethearts that you love, can you hear that hundreds upon hundreds as fair as they have been given up to treatment worse than death, and then to death, with all the ingenuities of torture that hell can devise, and then hesitate ? Can you unmoved list. n to their agonising ehtieks, and hear the cry of their poor slaughtered babes ? Arise, Englishmen, arise ! Lay down your sickles, for your work is done, and cold winter conies upon you. Take up the bayonet of good British steel, and go forth to reap a harvest of vengeance upon the cowardly miscreants who roam over the fair land of India, laden with the spoil, and red with the blood of England's outraged daughters ! " The Madrid journals of the 24:h have arrived. The Espana, though a semi-official journal, had been seized. Among the reforms projected by the Minister of Finance is one, it is said, for increasing the stamp duty, and ren dering stamp receipts obligatory in the payment of rent. The Ambassador of France bad given a grand banquet to Mane. Ristori, the eminent tragedian. The Weser Gazette of Bremen says :—" It bas recee:tly been reported that it was intended to fortify Berlin, but the statement is unfounded. It it is true, generally admitted that the fortification of the capital is desirable, but the expense would he too great. It has accordingly been decided that the fortifications at Spandau, which 1r ,test the capital, shall be considerably augmented, and works for that purpose are being carried on with activity." _ THE LATE fiENRY ROGERS.—A letter has been sent to Mrs. Rogers, wife of Captain Rogers, who was exe cuted at Liverpool for murder on the high seas, and for whose family a subscription is now being raised, by Mr. S. B. Pike, of 8, John-street, Minories, inclosing 401. from the American shipmasters and their friends now in the port of London. The writer says :—" We are a few of the many who believe that Captain Rogers was no murderer, and that such a foul stain can never attach to any of his family." VERY LIKE A WHALE !—The Perthshire Advertiser states tbat one day last 'week an old man, of the name of Bell, who acted as gate-keeper at a crossing on the Dundee and Perth line, perceived a hare on the line, gave chase to it, and was so absortel in the pursuit as not to hear a goods train which came up behind him, and threw him down, killing him on the spot. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. VIOLENT ASSAULT.—Thomag Burt, a well-:tressed young man, who described himself as a clerk in a colonial office in the city, was placed at the bar; c'natiked with violently assaulting Emtua Fisher, an un fortunate girl, residing at No. 7, Great Barlow-street, Marylebone. The prcsecutrix, who gave her evidence with great propriety, deposed tliat about 2 o'clock this morning she and another young woman le ere proceeding down Regent street, when the prisoner, who was in c: mpany with three other men, carne and-accosted her. She told him his company was not required, and he then, with a stick which he had in hi, band, lifted up her clothes in a very indecent manner, several times , . She requested him to desist, when he assailed lit r with a volley of the most obacere language, and then struck her in the mouth with his stick, cauiirg the blood to flow pretty freely. She called out " ptl;ce," when he again struck her just as the officer came up. She then gave him into custody. Margaret Earle was with last witness, and fully cor roborated all she had stated. The prisoner emphatieal y denied the accusation, and called a witness in support thereof. The witness, how ever, admitted that he was intoxicated at the time, and knew nothing at all about the affa'r. Mr. _Bingham severely admonished the defendant, and said that women of the prosecutor's class must be pro tected as well as others. Prisoner Lad been guilty of a most violent assault, for which he must c mimitted for one month under the Aggravated Assaults Act. The Rev. Hugh Hanna having announced h:s intention of again setting the authorities at defiance by holding forth in the open air on Sunday (yester day) the Belfast Presbytery met on Friday with the special view of 'taking the rev. disturber's case into serious consideration. The Rev. Dr. Cooke was present, and after four hours' solemn•delihert tion with c'osed doors, the public were admitted, and Dr. Cooke rose awl proposed the annexed re solutions, which were seconded by Dr. Edgar, and pass'_ol nem. con., after which the Presbytery ad journed, a committee having been formed, consist ing of Drs. Cooke, Morgan, Edgar,. and Mr. Mac- Naughten, to confer at 10 o'clock next day with Mr. Hanna on the subject of open-air preaching. " 1. That the preaching of the Gospel in the open air as well as in our churches, had been customary during theentlre history of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland: " 2, Teat Ibis custom we hold to he founded on our Lord's commission and on Apostolic practice, " 3. That we are res3lved, by all legitimate means, to maintain for ourselves, and transmit to posterity, this right, which we have hitherto uninterruptedly enjoyed. "4. That, while we are r, solved, we nevertheless feel conscientiously bound, as ministers of the gospel of peace, to do all in our power, even in the exercise of our rights and the performance of our duties, so to live as a giving no offence in anytl2ine., that the ministry be not blamed?. (2 Cor. vi. 3., &c.) "5. That, under the existing circumstances of this town, we do affectionately entreat our brother, Mr. Hanna, as a matter of Christian expediency (1 Cor. vi. 12) to desist from open-air preaching till, in the mercy of God, a reasonable time be afforded for excited pas sinus to cool and subside, an event which we hopefully anticipate, because, until within these few weeks, no organised obstruction or annoyance was experienced by any of cur ministers during theiropen-air services in any part of the town and country. .a 6. That we most earnestly remonstrate with our brother its to the language he has occasiona ly employed in lett,r4 to his Excellency the Lord-Lieutenant and to the local magistracy. "7. That a committee be appointed to confer with Mr. Hanna in r eference to these resolutions ; and that they be, and Lerehy are, authorised to hake such 'mea surer as to them shall seem desirable, for maintaining by appeal, either to the Executive or the Legislature, the constitutional privileges of this church. The com mittee to consist of the Moderator, Drs. Cooke, Morgan, E le.ar, and Mr Macnauehten." Undaunted, however, by Presbytery or public opinion, the Rev. Hugh Hanna 'still seems deter mined to show fight. In a brief note addressed to a friendly local journal he says : " The meeting of the Belfast Presbytery has com plicated the question of open-air preaching in Belfast. What I may specially do I cannot just now say. The resolutions of the Presbytery are entitled to a respectful consideration. I have not yet seen them; but I shall act according to my own sense of duty, looking for Divine light to guide me." " Divine light" to guide a rum, to create riot and ill-will—if not worse—on the Sabbath-day Mr. Hanna, however, on second thoughts, adopted the - wiser course, and made no attempt to repeat his dangerous experiment,. leaving the field open to Mr. Matico, the gentleman who has already gained some little notoriety as one of the apostles of street preaching. There was not, it appears, the slightest disturbance yesterday. TAMPERING WITH THE MILITARY. In connexion with the state of Belfast the Ban ner of Ulster tells this story "The 30th Regiment, which arrived here this week from Dublin, had scarcely occupied their com fortable huts in our infantry barracks for the second night when some of those disaffected persons by whom Belfas - , has been kept iu a state of tumult and disorder for months past, took advantage of the social moments of some of the corps, in public houses, i o enlighten them as to the causes and history of our riots, attributing, them, of course, entirely to the Orange party, who, as the soldiers were informed, had not only gone the length of wrecking Roman Catholic_ houses, but had even attackedand nearly destroyed the chapels themselves and the dwellings of the priests. The soldiers, whose religious prejudices and national feelings were thus worked upon, were, in several instances (as they were heard to boast), Tipperary ' boys,' of whom there are a considerable number in the 30th. Belfast is, or is made to appear to be, bad enough in a social view, without any infusion of the Tippe rary element; and, though our Protestant citizens have as little fear of being . driven into the Irish °flannel by a column of irregulars' from that dis tant and di ring country as ever they had, we can well appreciate the motives of those who would pre pare excitable soldiers for taking part, while under the influence of drink, with such mobs as have lately brought dipgrace upon the metropolis of the North." EA ILW AT' INTELLIGENCE. GEELONG AND MELBOURNE. The half-yearly meeting of ibis company was held at Gee!ong on the 7th of July, Mr. C. N. Thorne in'the - chair. _ _ _ The report cougratul ,ted the shareholders . on t,lO opening of the line for traffic on the 23th of Julie from Geelong to •Williamstown, 39 miles. The only circumstances to mar thesuccess of this other whie auspicious event were the uufortunate accident which occurred to Mr. 11. Welter?, the company's locomotive superintendent, who met his death while incautieusly leusng over the side of the engine while passingunder the °cern Child bride, and the inconvenient delay t- which soiree of their Melbourne friends were subjected. Since the day of opening the passenger traffic has been augment ing, and were it not for the non-complet'on of the. six miles of the Williamstown branch of the Mount Alexander line from the junction to Melbourne t' - 'e returns would have been much more gratifying. The delay in the opening eef the six miles to.tire . Melbourne Wharf involves the less of about au hour in the journey from ,Melbourne to Geelong. As to the continuation of the line from Geelong to Ballarat, the requisite steps will be carried out. Sulycriptions fur shares haye keen opened, and. Mr. Snell, the eng:ne:r has nearly complee e et • his preparations for the survey. The amount re quired to complete the Geelong; and Melbourne Rail Way is 41,4501., which will increase the total cost to 590,4501., or, including everything, between 13,000/. and 14,0001. per mile. The goods traffic., cannot be conveyed on the line until the Govern:' meat railway from Williamstown to Melbourne is completed.. The capital account showed that 534,2891; had been received, and 530,333/. ex- , pended,-leaving a balance of 3,9561. • . Resolutions were passed adopting the report, voting 1001. towards a fund for providing for the' family of the late Mr. Walters, locomotive super inteedent ; and also voting payment to the widows or children of lite J. Feokes and J. Gard, killed in the service of the .company, of 108. weekly for 'a . period of two years ; approving a memorial td his ; Excelleucy the Governor for authoii4y., to extend • 'the railway from Geelonn e) e to -Ballarat -.The capital. account of the extension from GeelOng• t ► Ballarat , to be kept distinct from that of the Geelong 'and - Melbourne Railway. _ SOUTH WALES MINERAL. rinelf-yearly" meeting of this company vira,a held' yesterdaY at the Craven Hotel, Strand ; -the. , Visccunt Villier3 in the chair. Mr. PARSONS, the secretary, read the report,' which stated that, in consequence of the failure of the original contractors for the Gafulchi tunnel,_ it became necessary to take the works out of their hands, but to prevent delay the directors consi dered it desirable to ceutinue operations thereon under the direction of the engineer. A contract', for the formation of the entire line ready to receive the permanent way has since been entered into with Messrs. Morris and Toole. The works of the Briton Ferry Docks, with the completion of which the permanent welfare of the undertaking is intimately associated, are satisfactorily progressing• and the proprietors of the ironworks in the Llyuvi Valley are endeavouring to make arrangements with the view of securing a short and direct route thereto over the railway. The means of continuously pur suing the works of theline having been provided by fhe Glyncorwg Coal Company, the directors had been spared the necessity of having to make any call upon the shareholders during the monetary pres sure which has so long prevailed ; but, in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the coal com pany, the proprietors are entitled to a dividend • upon their deposits at the rate of 5i per e-_ , nt. per annum, and dividend warrants would be issued ac cordingly. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, saidthey had succeeded in obtaining contrae tors who would finish the line with as lit . le delay as possible. The proprietors would receive interest at the rate of 5i per cent. on the money already paid up. He congratulated the shareholders on the poai tion of their affairs, and hoped that before the next meeting considerable progress would be made in the works on the railway, and also on those of the En ton Docks. _ _ _ Mr. J. N. FOSTER seconded the motion, and' it was carried unanimously. A - vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the proceedings. EXETER AND EXMOUTH. A deputation of the directors of this company recently met a committee of the South-Weetet4 Railway to settle the terms of the arrangement be tween the two companies in respect to the Exeter and Exmouth line. The result of the conference is reported to be that an arrangement has been entered into by which the line from Exeter to Topsham to be constructed by the South-Western Company, and from Topsham to Exmouth by the Exeter - and Exmouth Company ; auct the Brie, wheu comple'ed, is to he worked by the South-Western Cowgirl at 5 J per cent of the gross receipts over the entire tine LLOYD'S EHIPPING.--(This Day.) • LONDON, Sept. 29.—Wind this day at neon, W. ; light hrtaaa, .“.141 - B uw PLYMOUTH, Sept. 2S.—Wind W.—Arrived—Ossina, from Priirce Edward's Island ; Don, Labrador.

Mr. Paynter—l shall issue a warrant for his appre hension. GENERAL - AVELUCK. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—One of your contemporaries has lately in formed the public, I presume in bitter irony, that Her Majesty's Govermilent has taken the earliest opportunity of testifying its sense of the Fervices of General Havelock by giving him a geed service pension of 1001. per annum. Sir, I am &soldier of 21 years' standing, who have endeavoured to learn my profession, and have read with passionate admiration of the heroic constancy and devotion of soldiers of the British army at all periods of its history ; but never did I read of any achievements or of any devotion or fortitude superior to those which have been displayed by the handful of heroes who have been led by the avenger of his countrywomen on their victorious march of incessant fighting from Allahabad towards Lucknow—fighting not only against those human devils, the rebellious soldiers of the Company, but against ,a deadly sun and a deadly pestilence. Sir, the great deeds of Wellington, from the be ginning to the end of his brilliant life, never lay so near the hearts of the English people, and never found so loud an echo in them, as those which General Havelock has crowded int) a few weeks. I am nit comparing the victories of General Have lock with those of Wellington in the abstract, but I do say that • English pulses never se beat for Wellington's most brilliant victories as they have done to the incidents'of Havelock's avenging march. Yet the Government insults the feelings of the country by rewarding with a pecuniary dole the man whose name is ble.sed by every English wife and mother, and to whose skill and energy, if India be preserved to us at the present time, that pre servation will be mainly attributable. I only echo the sentiments of most men in the Britlsh arniy in saying that I eleould feel it-morn glory to have formed one of Havelock's force than to have fought at Waterloo. I say .the. odds were infinitely greater against him ; the interests for which he fought were equally great, and they were infinitely nearer to our hearts. When all the circumstances of his situation are fairly considered, the achievements of General Have lock are unsurpassed by any in the history of. Dig land, and the smallest recognifon of his services which will satisfy his countrymen is that he be made a Lieutenant• General and G.C.B. But probably the routine of the service stands in the way. Our governors have shown that they e disregard routine when it suits their purpose. Let them keep routine for little deeds—these are great ones. Can any one of the batch of K.C.l3.'e made after the Crimean war compare in his services for one moment with General Havelock ? Can even Sir W. Williams of Kern, to whom the country has been so lavish, compare with him ? Must England always be open to the reproach of rewarding with iediscreet profusion or with un worthy parsimony Or does the British Government act on the cold-blooded rule of the Roman Senate, which denied a triumph to the Consuls who took Capua from Hannibal on the ground that they had. only recovered that which originally belonged to the re public ? It is, perhaps, because Havelock has only overcome Sepoy mutineers that he is not thought worthy of any reward except a pecuniary one, to which he was well entitled before. Any mail that arrives from India may tell us that this good man and good soldier has fallen in the fulfilment of his great mission. Let us not have to reproach ourselves that we did not recog nise his merits until he was no longer able to de rive comfort and encouragement from the recog nition. Your obedient servant, Sept. 27.

SINGULAR FATALITY. —Yesterday two very awful in stances of sudden death took place in the Edgware-road, the dreadful occurrences forming an awful peculiarity, from the fact of their taking 'lace within a few doors of each other, and at almost the same period. It seems that Mr. Cowderoy, carrying on an extensive businese as a butcher, in the Edgware-road, returned home from the cattle-market in his chaise-cart, after effecting some purchases, in apparently his usual state of health and spi rits. Shortly after he was seized with sudden indisposition, and immediately expired. The deceased was t reatly re -peeled by bin neighbours; but they had not s recovered from the painful feeling consequent of his melancholy death, when their horror was greatly increased by re ceiving information of the death, unr‘er as similar sudden c i rcu mstances, of Mr. Fish, pawnbroker, who resided about a dozen doors from Mr. Cowderoy's resi dence. The shutters were put up at deceased's shops in the course of the day. The distressing tranevents occasioned quite a sensation is the locality. Sge to add, the coroner was holding an inquest at the same time, in the i mme di a te- neighbourhood, on a person found dead in bed, and information was transmitted to him of the shocking fatality which had just occurred. Owing to the suddenness of the deaths it is probable an inquest will be held on both the deceased. GREAT WESTERN OF CANADA. It appears that the result of the half-year's ac counts of, this company to July 31. last shows that the net amount available for dividend, after deduct ing all charges, is 94,1361., and the dividend. which will be recommended by ie directors is at the rate of G per cent. per annum, which will absorb 93,7131., and leave a surplus to be carried over to next half year of 4231. currency.

STIRLING AND DUNFERMLINE. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held at Edinburgh on Friday ; Mr. Anstruther in the chair. The CHAIRMAN said that since the last meeting they had been engaged in callin g in and dis charging the outstanding debts of the company, and the greater part of them had been paid. They were all aware that at the last meeting o the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway Com pany a committee of three shareholders was ap pointed to• meet a similar committee of share holders of this company to endeavour to nog°• tiate a settlement of all disputes between the two companies. The directors had always been rcady to meet the Edinburgh and Glasgow Company, and, if possible, to put an end to litigation, and they were glad to see that the shareholders of that com pany had at last taken up the subject, and had named a committee of their number to meet them, The shareholders of the Edinburgh Company having taken that step, the directors were decidedly of opinion that this company should adopt. a similar course, and appoint a committee for a like purpose. He might state that the directors would be happy to co-operate with them in their endeavour to ob tain a final settlement of all disputes between :the two companies. From the state of the assets of the company, and the small amount of debts still Out-: standing, the directors ccnsidered they were Per fectly warranted in recommending an interim pay ment of Ga. per share to be made. After a short discussion resolutions were unani mously agreed to, approving the report and divi dend proposed, and appointing a committee to ne gotiat 3 with the lessees for a final setts meat of all disputes.
