AT a Meeting of Ministers and Elders connected wi Churches of different Denominations in Glasgow at its Neighbourhood, held at Glasgow this 23d day ofNovem ber, 1841, called to receive an Official Communication in reply to the Memorial addressed by them to the Honourable Board of Directors of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway Company against the Running of Sabbath Trains, — WILLIAM COLLINS, Esq., in the Chair,— _ _ . . The Rev. Dr. SYMINGTON opened the Meeting with prayer. The Meeting having fully considered the said communica tion, unanimously resolved as follows : I. That this Meeting have learned, with profound regret and serious alarm, that " the Directors have come to the determination of leaving the question of Sunday Travelling to be decided by the Shareholders, intimating at the same time their own opinion, that there ought to be a Train in the morning and evening, but under such regulations as shall enable the servants of the Company, and all persons travel ling by the Railway, to attend Divine service." . . . 11. That, adhering to the views on this vitally important question, which they had felt themselves called upon, as guardians of the moral and spiritual welfare of the commu nity, to press in their Memorial upon the attention of the Directors of the Railway Company, they now consider them selves bound to urge the same views immediately, and with equal earnestness, upon the Shareholders, with whom the decision of the question is to rest, in the hope that they may be induced to withhold their sanction from a course which would do direct violence to a Divine command, contravene, as is confidently believed, the law of . Scotland, outrage the best feelings of the Scottish people, and inflict a serious and lasting injury on the welfare of this part of the United King dom. 111. That, as the running of Sabbath Trains on the Edin burgh and Glasgow Railway would prevent a large portion of the Christian public of Scotland from making use of it at all —bound, as very many would feel themselves to be, whatever personal disadvantage, to withhold their countenance and support from a Company which sanctioned and required, be Sabbath traffic, the desecration of the Lord's day—this Meeting feel that, in order to be provided against the possibly disappointment of their anxious wishes on this subject, they are driven to the necessity of adopting measures to ascertain what other lines of communication may be open to them, in the event of so great a calamity taking place. IV. That a Committee be appointed to prepare the Me morial to the Shareholders, and generally to adopt all com • petent means for giving WILLIAM CO bo LLINS, Chairman. .4•/--CA ce ,--Ctt (44. ;LeOY - 71 ya~cC~ ,{ J 5-f'e E c '/ TO ARCHITECTS THE GUARDIANS of the PRESCOT UNION, being about to erect a CENTRAL WORKHOUSE, on the south side of the Turnpike-road, and nearly opposite the Green Dragon, in Whiston, in the county of Lancaster, hereby give Notice that they are ready to receive PLANS and SPECIFICATIONS for the ERECTION of such WORKHOUSE.

(Signed) WYNDHAM HARDING, Secretary Railway Office, Greenock, 23d Dec., 1841. EDINBURGH AND GLASGOW RAILWAY. A MEETING of Merchants, Manufacturers, and others .L 1 in Glasgow, who disapprove of Railway Travelling on the Lord's Day, was held in the RELIGIOUS INSTITUTION Rooms, on the 14th Day of December, 1841, for the purpose of considering what measures ought to be adopted, in conse quence of the Directors of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Rail way Company having declared their opinion that there ought to be a Train on the morning and evening of Sabbath. WILLIAM CAMPBELL, Esq., in the Chair. The Meeting having taken into their serious consideration the subject of Railway Travelling on Sabbath, and especially the threatened desecration of that holy day by the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway Company, unanimously adopted the following Resolutions : . . . . 1. That this Meeting deeply regret the opinion to which the Directors of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway Com pany have come at a late meeting, at which, in terms of their own Minute, they state, that " the Directors have come to the determination of leaving, the question of Sunday travel ling to he decided by the Shareholders, intimating, at the same time, their own opinion, that there ought to be a train in the morning and evening, but under such regulations as shall enable the servants of the Company, and all persons travelling by the Railway, to attend Divine Service." 2. That as this Meeting regard the running of Railway trains on Sabbath as a violation of God's law, and a desecra tion of God's holy day, they disapprove of that opinion, and however desirous they are of availing themselves of the faci lities and conveniences which the Railway is fitted to afford, and anxious as they are to promote the prosperity of an en terprise so well entitled in other respects to public approba tion, and of which some of them are Shareholders, yet should that opinion be concurred in, and finally sanctioned by the Shareholders, which they earnestly hope will not be the case, they feel themselves constrained, by a sense of duty, to with hold their countenance and support from the Company, and resolve to give a preference, both in travelling and in the transmission of goods, to other modes of conveyance, con ducted by Companies who refrain from desecrating the Sab bath. _ . . 3. That as the final determination of the question has been referred to the Shareholders, this Meeting resolve to address a Memorial to them, in the earnest hope that they will see it to be their duty to withhold their sanction from a measure which would involve disobedience to a Divine com mand, do violence to the religious feelings of the people of Scotland, and inflict a deep and lasting injury on the best in terests of the people in this portion of the United Kingdom. 4. That a Committee be appointed to obtain the signatures of all those Merchants, Manufacturers, and others who con cur in the views of this Meeting, and who are willing to co operate with them in giving effect to these Resolutions.

Me Corporation of Liverpool having granted the site of the late OBSERVATORY, ST.

THE PRICE FOR EACH PORTRAIT, INCLUDING A FRAME, IS ONE GUINEA. JOHN RELPH, Manager. Specimens may be seen, and Orders received, at Mr. LA •- CEY'S REPOSITORY OF ARTS, 100, Bold-stieet. The Invention was recently introduced into England, at the ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION, LONDON . ; and the following are a few extracts from the leading Journals relating to its merits : (Prom the Morning Chronicte.) When we formerly described this process, the titne requi site for taking a portrait was, generally speaking, about four minutes ; but in consequence of the great improvements that have been made, the time has been reduced to about five se- conds on a clear day ; but during cloudy dull weather tho operation may require from aminute and a half to two minutes. The portraits taken by this means are really extraordinary• as likenesses ; they are true to nature, for nature here is her own delineator. The features are timirably marked out and delineated, and the likenesses at first sight are so extraordi nary, that they are really startling. (From the Morning Advertiser.) PHOTOGRAPHIC LIKENESSES. — One of the most inter esting sights it is possible to conceive is now attracting crowds daily to the Polytechnic L►stitution, Regent-street. The patentee has christened it the " photographic mode of takine likenesses." By this process, in the incredibly short space of five seconds, the likeness of any individual is taken down on a piece of metal, and the portrait is a perfect fac simile of the sitter. It is nature herself that is called in to be the artist, and her performance is truly astonishing, leaving immeasurably behind it everything that human skill could effect. (From the Times.) THE PHOTOGRAPHIC MINIATURES.—The princip. been so far perfected as to be almost incapable of fur improvement. The novelty attendant upon the fact being furnished in the short space of five seconds with more correct miniature likeness than the most accom plished artist could paint on ivory, after days of laborious study, coupled with the fineness of the weather. drev together a host of curious fashionables, at the Poi technic Institution, so many, indeed, that notwitho the short period of time occupied in the open was crowded for hours together, by parties anxiously their turn. The apartment appropriated for the magic process—for so it may be termed—is well calculated for object desired, beinc , on the highest story of the institution From the roof, which is constructed of blue glass, of abou a quarter of an inch thick, a very powerful light i's obtained, and it is so ingeniously contrived as to revolve with the sun. In a portion of the room, nearly in the centre, an elevated seat is placed, on which the party whose likeness is to be taken sits, with his head reclined backwards. In this posi tion the sitter is told to look into a glass box, in an opposite direction, about five from him, in which is placed the plate to be impressed with the portrait. Having done so for a few seconds, he descends, and in a few minutes afterwards a likeness is presented to him. The likenesses which we saw were admirable, and closely true to nature, beauties and de formities being alike exhibited ; therefore those who are ashamed of their personal appearance had better kaiip from the influence of phOIOgTaPhY• (From the Morning Herald.)

(From the liforning Post.) The patentee of this invention has adopted the principle o giving these " reflections" to the public at a very moderat, cost, compared to the ordinary price of miniatures, trustima for his return to a general desire to possess them, which h, anticipates must be felt by all persons who would cherish thi best memento of a dear friend or relative.
