THE Provisional Directors have the great satisfaction of informing the Shareholders in this undertaking that. the Act for which they applied has passed through both Houses of Parliament, and is now waiting only for the Royal Assent. All the shares being taken, the works will be commenced without delay, and a part of the Line from London to Waltham Cross, through Tottenham and Edmonton, will be finished, and yielding a profitable return within a year from the expiration - of the time which must necessarilly be occupied in obtaining 'possession of the land, and the whole line will be completed within two years front the same period. For the information of distant subscribers, the Directors sub join some extracts from the report of the Committee of the House of Commons, which show that a most liberal income has been proved; and the Directors, at the same time, take the opportunity to point out the additional advantages' which may be expected to accrue from other lateral railways which have been projected by other Companies to flow into this the direct northern line. An act for the completion of the line from Cambridge to York, or to some point near York, which the railroads already in progress may render advisable, and also to the east, will be applied for in the next session of Parliament. The capital for this continuation of the line has been subscribed for, and the necessary surveys are in progress. Extracts from the report of the Committee of the House of Commons, May 20, 1836. " The amount of income expected to arise from the convey ance of passengers and goods is £290,702 6s. 3d., the propor tion of passengers being £199,530 2s. Bd., and for goods £91,127 3s. 7d. " The calculations of remuneration do not :depend upon the contemplated extension of the line, but it is expected that the re inneration will be much increased thereby. " There is no competing line of railway now existing, or in progress ; for although two other lines were brought before the Committee at the commencement of their inquiry, they were, both withdrawn at an early period, and without sufficient evi dence being adduced in their favour. " There is no plain -sin the proposed railway which will re quire to be worked by assistant engines, either stationary or locomotive. " The fitness in an engineering point of view of the projected line appears to be unusually great. "The amount of the estimates of the cost and expenses to be incurred up to the time of the completion of the railway, is .'1,2.00,000, which sum has appeared in evidence to be fully ade quate to the purpose. The estimated charge of the annual expenditure of the rail way whets completed, is from 40 to 41 per cent. of the gross anni:,l income, and the calculations on which this change is estimated, appear to the committee to have beeu sufficiently proved, taking into account the unusually favourable nature of the line. " The calculations proved in evidence have satisfactorily es tablished that the revenue is likely to be sufficient to support the annual charges of the maintenance of the railway, and still to allow a profit to the projectors." The Directors take this opportunity to announce that a meet ing of all the shareholders will be summoned in August. 56, Lombard-street, July I. R. W. Kennard, Esq. London John Marshall, Esq. Leeds W.

ORTON'S truly valuable CAMOMILE PILLS for IN INDIGESTION, &C.—These Pills are a pure extract of Cammomile Flowers , prepared by a peculiar process, by which all the medicinal properties of rather more than one ounce of the flowers are concentrated into four moderate sized Pills. They are mild in operation, and have proved wonderfully suc cessful in removing every symptom of indigestion, sick headache, loss of appetite, giddiness, heart-burn, costiveness, eruptions of the skin, and all complaints arising from a disordered state-of the digestive organs; they require no alterations of diet, and their operation will be found co beneficial in giving tone to the sto mach, regulating the bowels, and in promoting a healthy habit, • as fully to convince all who take them of their great utility. Persons who have suffered from indigestion for several years have by their use in a few weeks perfectly recovered, which is a convincing proof that in the smallest compass is contained the largest quantity of the tonic principle, of so peculiar a nature as to pervade the whole system, through which it diffuses health and strength. • Sold wholesale by Barclay and Sons; T.

AMERICAN SHIPS IN THE PACIFIC. —The American sloop Honduras, Captain Scott, after cruising among the group of islands around Ascension island, went into Strong's island to repair and provision. The captain and eight wen went on shore for supplies, leaving the mate and cabin-boy i n th e s hip. The deck swarmed with islanders; when it was ajprehended an attack had been made on the boat's crew ashore, as the captain was heard calling to the mate to load the muskets. The mate, hearing this, sprang on board from the natives, who bad seized .him, and with cutlass and musket succeeded in driving them overboard. He then slipped the chain-cable, and with the aid of the boy spread canvass and brought the vessel out of the harbour, making the best of his way back to Ascension island, where she arrived after 11 days, without foremast, and short of provisions. Having shipped a na t ive crew at Ascension, she sailed for Oahn, where she arrived in January. Small hopes are entertained that Captain Scott and the crew escaped being murdered.. The crew of the Thetis, Captain Rogers, had at tempted to seize the vessel, two or three of the men having en tered the cabin at midnight, and with axes approached the berths of Captain Rogers, and l-lannington, the mate, and severed off both their heads. The trading-master of the schooner, hearing the alarm, seized a cutlass, ran on deck, and encountering the chief of the revolters; after a contest of 10 or 15 minutes, killed him, and brought the remainder to subjection. The American whale-ship Independence, had been lost on Starbrook's Island. The mate and part of the crew had reached Tahitti, but nothing had been heard of the remainder, who, with Capt, Braynter on board, had gone in a second boat. - It is, stated in some of the evening ministerial journals, of Monday, that-parliament will be prorogued in the first week of August.

I'l has been subject of remark, by Persons holding Shores in Mines under the old limited system of fifths. 100ths, 128ths, 192ds, that a Market for such Shares is not always attainable, especially in the best Mines, where Shares are worth from £lOOO to £2O(X) each„and therefore not gene,rally sought after; whereas those on the Scrip Plan find a ready sale, even where the value of the Mines adventured in is not so obvious. It is therefore proposed to form a Company, for purchasing Shares in Mines, (confined to Cornwall,) yielding large present profits, and in new and promising Mines, likely to be early and permanently valuable. • Among the advantages to be derived from this Company; that of affording to persons desirous of effecting Sales of Shares in rich Mines a ready means of doing so, is only a subordinate one.

Ebe iLiberpool g.tanbarti. "GENERAL ORDER " Having learnt that at the outposts conversations, rather frequent, were kept up with deserters from the British auxiliary force, and the Portuguese auxiliary army, or with individuals expelled from the service for dishonourable acts, the Comman der-in-chief deems it proper to remind the troops that, acting in complete union with the British royal navy, all British subjects who shall be found fighting in the ranks of the, enemy shall be considered as real rebels against his Majesty the King of Eng land, and subjected to the penalty of death, which will probably be inflicted upon them, in the event of their being captured, .ac cording to the English law. " In consequence it is ordered that if any individual speak ing English, and suspected of belonging to the degraded class of persons abovtrnentioned, present himself at our outposts, he shall be immediately fired at; all communications with the enemy's outposts shall cease, and hostilities shall commence again with them until this habit be put an end to. " The Lieutenant-General Commanding-in-chief the corps d'armee of the Cantabrian coast. " DE LACY EVANS." Upon receipt of this very extraordinary general 'order we trusted, for the honour of Englishmen, that it might prove to be a fabrication. However, by our Parlia mentary report of Tuesday, the reader will find that Lord PALMERSTON, in answer to a question put by Sir ROBERT PEEL, as to its authenticity, expressed his be lief that "Some such order had been issued," although he could have no official cognizance of its existence, be cause the British government was not responsible for the acts of an officer not in the English service. There appears little doubt, notwithstanding the evasive reply of the Foreign Secretary, that the king's ministers were privy to General Evans's intention to issue the above atrocious production, if they did not actually give him instructions to do so. At all events, it only remains for government to do one of the two following. things,— either to throw General EVANS and the QUEEN OF SPAIN'S cause overboard, or, to take the responsibility of the order upon their own shoulders, and aid EVANS in putting its sanguinary threat into execution. Dare they do the latter ? We think not, although it is impossible to foresee to what extent they will carry their arbitrary policy towards the inhabitants of the Peninsula who adhere to Don CARLOS, and our own fellow-countrymen who may take up arms in his cause. But they must remember that although a British-born subject can never divest himself of his allegiance. to his sovereign, and, therefore, notwithstanding he may be resident in any other country, he becomes liable to the pains and penal ties of a rebel if in the event of a war arising between that country and England, should he be found adhering to the King's enemies and fighting in their ranks; yet, as the King of Great Britain has not declared war upon the Spanish Carlists—as his ministers have all along disavowed any intention of making war 'upon the parties who support Don CAnr.os, no British subject, by taking arms in support of the Carlist cause, can become a rebel to his king, who is at peace with the Carlists. That being the case, in what an unenviable position are minis ters and their friend General EVANS placed !. How they will extricate themselves or him we shall know shortly. "The way of transgressors is bard," and so will the contemptible knot of dishonest and imbecile creatures now forming the cabinet, ere long, find it. Dependent, (some of them almost for their bread,) upon the will of a man, who has long ago forfeited every claim to the cha racter of a gentleman, whose praise is infamy, and whose foul-mouthed slander is directed alike against friend and foe when it suits his selfish purposes; the position of his MAJESTY'S ministers is one of the most humiliating a country was ever called upon to witness. Opposed by- the property, the intelligence, the franchise of England, surrounded by swarms of needy sycophants who deceive, and assailed by thousands of flaming patriots for commis sionerships, places, embassies, consulships, magistracies, and that with the tacit threat of abandonment if refused—• beaten at every election where there has been a contest, set at defiance by the calm, dignified, and resolute con duct of the peers of the realm, who are now, more than 'ever, the "pillars of the state," objects of dislike to the SOVEREIGN, whose throne they are secretly undermining, cowed by the thunders of the agitator's bellowing,•sub miffing day by clay to the .lash of the mendicant, and writhing under the taunts and defiance of, a PEEL and a STANLEY—there they are—look at their degradation, Englishman! and contrast the miserable crew with the historical recollections of a PITT, a BURKE, a CANNING, a-SHERIDAN, or a CHATHAM. When Providence intends to punish a land, it generally permits the lowest of the people to occupy the high places, and melancholy as is the infliction, we must confess that we are almost come to that pass. The love of place, and pay, and power, and that inherent recklessness which delights in mischief, however profitable to the possessors, cannot exist long without bringing doWn retribution upon the guilty par ties. The cabinet paid the fee at Litclifikid House for the support of the beggar anti his tail, iu the promise of the Irish mutikipal reform bill. They paid it unwill ingly, but the alternative IV!ut the logs of place, and with men who had thrown principle tot he winds, and embraced the wizard of .expodiency, the ruin of protestantism and the re-erection of popery was . a trifling consideration. Whenever men seek the attainment of even laudable objects by the use of disgraceful or disreputable means, disappointment and misery in one shape or other are the usual consequences. But when men, acting in an executive capacity, wil fully and wickedly sanction measures which they know to be unjust, and for the purpose of carrying those mea sures avail themselves of the use of means which are disgraceful, the crime becomes of a deeper dye.-- To lick the dust before a man whose political character is a libel upon human nature, bad, as it is,—to sweep away at his bidding the Protestant institutions of Ireland, because the professors of Protestantism are numerically inferior to the Papists, although superior in wealth, intelligence, and civilization ;—to bully and threaten one branch of of the legislature, and wrest from their fears those con cessions which their reason could never sanction,—to bring forward motion after motion upon what is termed " appropriation," when they knew full well that no sur plus exists to appropriate—these are scandalous means which sooner or later will crush the faction, and consign then) as politicians to the tomb of the Capulets. Their miserable majority of twenty-six on the appropriation clause, the other night, is tantamount to a defeat. Right minded men, would con Sider it as such, but kick Lord John and his collegfues as much as yotv please, you cannot kick them out of their place and pay. They will submit to any indignity rather than give them ity. Why the majority is not even the number of the tail ! But, say the ministerial hacks, it is the majority of the people of England. Quite the reverse. Were the matter lea to to the representatives of England alone, the majority against ministers would exceed 40;' and when we con sider how slender were the majorities by which numbers of title radical members were returned—such as Ewart, for Liverpool, by about 200 votes only, in a constituency of 9 to 11,000; Thornely, for Wolverhampton, by about 100 votes; and the delectable Wason, for Ipswich, almost a drawn battle, it must be evident that 'as far as the church of England in Ireland is concerned, the voice of England is strongly in her favour. Will any man who is not blinded by prejudice say, that on such a miserable majority as 26 ! and of such tag-rag and bobtail mate rials too, the House of Lords has not a right to exercise its discretion ? March your majority through Coventry my Lord JOHN RUSSELL, and display their glory to the people of Eng land. Falstaff's recruits were quite as honourable as they, and you need not be ashamed, with such a squad, of following such an example. It was for the purpose of preventing a House of Com mons from becoming absolute that the upper branch - of the legislature was created, and if any tyranny can be more odious than another, it is that which the commons would undoubtedly exercise were they not under the sa lutary restraint of the upper house. They would soon vote their sittings permanent. Annual parliaments would be forgotten by such men as EWART, HUME, WAKLEY, and HARVEY, who, notwithstanding the brag gadocia of the radical prints, are all likely to be turned out of their precarious seats on the next contest, and would gladly shirk a contest, if they could. The liberty of Englishmen would soon become an empty name. Warrants would be granted to search our houses on sus picion, as Colonel Fairman can testify. Men of intelli gence would see gratuitously the inside of Newgate, if the absolute house had a suspicion that they had opinions adverse to their own. Witness the incarceration.of many respectable individuals in the case of Ipswich. The tyranny of one radical is bad enough in the com mon affairs of life ; the system is necessarily one of sus picion and dissatisfaction, and the tender mercies of a wealthy radical are contempt and cruelty. It is worse when local jurisdiction is placed in such hands—worse still when the government of a free country is found in them ; and woe be to the liberties of the English people if ever they are resigned to the absolute government of an unchecked House of Commons and a radical ma jority. The eyes of the people are fast opening to this im pression, and no stronger proof of it can be given than the late county elections, Warwickshire was a bitter pill to the O'Melbourne administration. Collision in deed ! The ministers may exclaim, like orator Simi', with his seven millions ! We are 26 !! ! But let Lord JOHN dissolve Parliament now if he dare, and we sus pect that four conservatives will walk into the house from every county in England and Wales. These are the inevitable results of unnatural coalitions. The whigs of the olden time stand aloof from the treacherous and downward course of the rump now in power, they can not, dare not join with the faction whose burning desire is to sweep away the monarchy, the church, the peerage, and every thing sacred, every thing in short which is above them in excellence. Moderate men have become alarmed at the revolutionary tendency of government measures ; and thus the band of conservatives, notwith standing the.extent of the elective franchise, has become of late materially strengthened. The elements of free dom still exist in the different classes of society, and care must be taken that these elements are not destroyed, and the balance of the state subverted, either by an un due preponderance of regal or popular power : for in either case the gate of tyranny may be opened, and the liberties of the people extinguished. That sound ness of principle, and virtuous hatred of base ex pediency which is one of the characteristics of the Eng lishman, offers a safe guarantee that the ministry which hugs with apparent delight the mouth-piece of popish rebellion, and truckles to the insolent demands of one, whom but a short period since, they honoured by denoun cing, will soon loose their remaining bald. Our readers will observe by the extended report of the Council proceedings of Wednesday, which will be found in another place, that a derision was come to which bids fair to make the membera of our Corporation still more unpopular than they are at present. We allude to their determination to exclude from the Corporation schools the sacred scriptures in an unmutilated form, and to sub stitute the garbled and Popish version at present in use in the whig-radical schobls in Ireland. The consequence of this proceeding of the socinians and political dissen ters in the Corporation has been to induce a number of •gentlemen—lay as well as clerical— to call upon the people of Liverpool to mark their disapprobation of that step by taking into consideration the propriety of erect ing other schools in which the entire word of God shall be had free access to. Upon this subject we shall say no more at present. We refer the reader to the report to which we have alluded, and also to a notice calling a meeting, to be held on Wednesday next, at toe Amphi theatre. WOOL SALE Yesterday forenoon, an extensive sale of foreign wool took place at the Exchange-rooms, E x change-buildings, in this town. The attendance of buyers was nut quite so numerous as at the sale of the 24th June, although the competition was equally as great,. and the proportion of wool sold to the number of bales offered was greater than the quantity offered for sale upon that occasion. Mr. Abram Gartside, Messrs. Hardman and Sons, and Messrs. 'l'. and H. Littledale and Co., were the parties who offered the wools, amounting in all to. 1577 bags, including in that number 636 of New South Wales, 219 of East India, 223 of Magadore, and the remainderconsisted of Spanish, German, Austrian, &c. The purchasers were chiefly from .Leeds, liudderstield, and Dewsbury, and the surrounding 'neighbourhood, and the bidd►ng was briskly kept up through out the sale. Some of the lower descriptions were bought in again, but were afterwards disposed of by • private contract. The whole.of the Australian parcels sold extremely well, and at an advance of from Id. to ld. per lb. upon the prices .of the sale of the 24th ult., varying from Is. 7d. to 2s. 101., according to their respective qualities. The East India lots, 47 bales of which went off at the sale at from sd. to 122 d. per lb., were all ultimately sold. We understand some heavy arrivals of foreign wools are expected in a short time. The practice of the Irish Rowan catholic prelates of r inttin g cross before their Dames, has led many persons, who know no better,,to imagine that their reverences cannot write, and only affix their waak. Jui,y 8, Iz," k, THE REGISTRATION. We strongly urged all conservatives, in our last publication, ❑ut to overlook the important steps requisite to be taken before the 20th instant, in order that they mar be duly enrolled as electors either for the county or borough. We cannot too often repeat to them our earnest solicitations in this respect. 71 ' s register must never be foriptien, much less at a time when it i 5 the especial duty of every conservative to stand forward in de' fence of the protestant institutions of his country. We once more urge upon them the following points connected with the registration. County Voters—claiming to vote for the first time—must on or before the 20th July deliver to the overseer of the parish or township where the property is situated a notice in the foi" lowing form To the overseers of the parish (or township) of I hereby give you notice that I claim to be inserted in the list of voters for the county of , and . that the particulars of my place - of abode and qualification are stated below.—Dated the day of in the year IS3 13. Place of abode, Nature of qualification,—Freehold house, or warehouse, stable, land, field, annuity, rent charge, &c., as the case m ay be. giving such description of the property as may serve to identify it' Where situate in this parish (or township.) If the property I .:e not situate in any street, lane, or other like place, then say name of the property, or name of the occupying tenant. A person whose name is already on the register need not send in the above claim, provided he retains the same qualifi cation, and continues iu the same place of abode described 10 the register. • _ Borough Voters.—Any person who has resided for six calendar months next previous to the last day of July within the parlia mentary borough, or within seven statute miles of the boundary thereof, and has occupied for twelve calendar months previous to the last day of July within the said borough, either as owner or tenant, a house, warehouse, counting-house, shop, or other building, being either separately or jointly with any land withia such borough, occupied by . him as owner or tenant of the clear yearly value of not less than £lO, and all rates and taxes do for the same before the sixth of April, is entitled to be placeS on the list of voters published on the last day of this month. The premises occupied thro l ughout the twelve months nee d not be the same, but may be different premises occupied in it'll' mediate succession, the rates and taxes having been paid on all. The premises may be occupied jointly, as by partners, and, each-person will be,entitled to be registered, provided the clear yearly value divided by the number of occupiers shall give to each and every one a sum of not less than ten pounds, and pro vided they are all mentioned by name on the rate. It may happen that a person may have commenced an occu , pancy of premises, at some period immediately before the lay' ing of a rate, (either in this parish or the adjoining townships, included within the parliamentary borough,) and his name maY be omitted from such rate, the overseer- having been ignorant of his being an occupier. Persons suspecting that this may b e the case should search at the rate-office, and ascertain whether their names are on the rate; if not, they should deliver to the overseer a notice in the following terms : To the overseers of the parish (or township) of I hereby claim to be rated to the relief of the poor jo the parish or township of , in respect of house, Bcc. , situate in -street, in aforesaid, occupied by Me , and I herewith tender the full amount of any rates now du e in respect of such preinises.—..Dated this day of 1836. The same precaution should also be used, and the same 1 3 °- tice adopted by individual partners in firms who are not rated by name, the house or firm being rated. A claim•to be rated, and a tender are equivalent to beirig rated. • Parties who have any doubts as to the correctness of their tax and rate-payers, and who apprehend on that account any future difficulty in obtaining their votes, should inquire at the offices of the respective overseers, and rectify any error before the 20th July. The eastern portico of the New Custom-house was finished on Friday last. _ _ COURT OF PASSAGE.—This Court opened yesterday, before the Mayor and Charles Crompton, Esq., assessor. There ale, thirty-one causes which are defended, eighteen undefende' causes, and. four inquiries. Only eight of the causes hare be° disposed of. We ale obliged from press of matter to omit el ing a report. ACCIDENT. —On Monday last, as a person named Moffit, and another man, were driving along Shaw-street, in a gig belong ing to Messrs. Richardson - and Cowburn, the horse sudde nt l became unmanageable, and set at a furious rate,. ve'eriag alternately from one side of the street to the other, and threaten' ing to precipate both vehicle and inmates into the dangero l L s hollows that line certain parts of the road. After running in this manner for about two hundred yards, the rapidity of Or s motion, together with the. shelving of the road and the weigu i of the driver, who is a very lusty man, caused the gig to he e over, and it turned completely bottom upwards.
