PAPIER MACHEE.—When this material was first in troduced to public notice, it was admired for its exact imitation of the most elaborate carvings in wood ; but so rapidly has it risen to perfection, and so beautifully deli cate yet durable are many of the articles produced in it, that it cannot now be compared to any thing that has pre ceded it. A most he utiful specimen of workmanship in this material is now exhibiting at Mr. Key's, in 80ld -street. It is a splendid Chimney Glass Frame, of foliage sur mounted by a basket of f. uit--the graceful effect of which cannot be described in the limits of a paragraph. CIGARS.-it will he seen by an advertisement in another column, that in addition to the extensive tobacco manufactory recently established by Messrs. W. Percival and Son, in Dale-street, these enterprising gentlemen have commenced manufacturing cigars. Extensive alte rations have been made in the premises, so us to facilitate in every way the drying and seasoning ; a nd the specimens we have seen are quite equal to most of the foreign manu facture. Nor can we see any reason why they should not he, when they are produced from exactly similar material. The greatest chtference is in the price.

(A true cop).) J. 11. 11UMFREY, SECRETARY. Sheffield, 2nd November, 1844. EDINBU RGII AND GLASGOW RAILWAY. TO THE SHAREHOLDERS. GENTLEMEN, QOM E one has publicly addressed you under the ano nyrnous s'gnature of " Plain Dealer." From the whole tenor of his letter, I think I am justified in stating that he is not one of us, but a Caledonian Shareholder ; and I challenge him to a disclosure of his real name. If I am mistaken, and it he, notwithstanding, dislikes pub lishing his name and address, let him send them to our Secretary, with his a , surance as a gentleman, that he wrote the letter in question, and I shall he satisfied. My name and address are already communicated to the Secretary. I wish I could believe his statement, that the projected Caledonian Railway would not injure rhe Edinburgh and Glasgow Ra , lway. But he admits that it is a parallel line between the two termini at Edinburgh and Glasgow, only ten miles longer than ours. Farther, hi- cannot deny (although he is cautiously silent on the subject) that the Caledonian and Scottish Central Lines will also afford an independent rival communication, as short as ours, from Glasgow to Stirling, and thence to the whole North of Scotland. Such being the case, I think it requites no argument to prove to you that these two undertakings, if sanctioned by Parliament, would affect seriously the prosperity of our undertaking. It seems to me quite un necessary for us to consult any neutral Engineer or Agent on such a subject. Indeed, every Shareholder has now the admitted farts bef o re and ran judge for himself. I think, therefore. that " Plain Dealer," in place of writ. ing an anomrmous letter to you in the Newspapers would have done better (it he really is one of our number) had he attended the late Special General Meeting. and sup ported his friend Colonel Graham, the Chairman of the Caledonian Line, who, although he holds only one share in the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway, came to protest against our proceedings. Colonel Graham, when at our meeting, intimated his intention, as he had no supporter there, to endeavour to stir up opposition among you to the resolution of the Special General Meetine, and I presume this letter of " Plain Deakr" is the fir,t advance of the forlorn hope. The Chairman's circular to }on, and the plan of the Rival Lines which accompanied it, put matters, however, in too clear a light to admit of your being misled by any such attempt. Plain Dealer," like Colonel Graham, states that the injury to be inflicted on our Railway is Unintentional If it were so, toe fact would still be no consolation to us fur the loss of our money. But how do these gvntlemen reconcile the unintentional charketer of the injury with the recent al'eration on the point of divergence of the two forks recommended by the Commissioners in 1841, the only object of whch evidently is to shorten the distance between Edinburgh and Glasgow ?—or with this other fact which has just now come to light, viz., that in the Parliamentary Notices of the Caledonian Line, V:ere is a branch intended to cut off the apex of the triangle near Lanark, and there. by still farther shorten the distance between Edinburgh and Glasgow ? When the plans arc deposited next month, we shall probably find that tlw actual difference of distance is even less than is now given out. Tnere already exist, besides the turnpike roads, two great lines of communication between Edinburgh and Glasgow —one by the Canals, and the other by Railway. There is invested in these undertakings about three mil lions of trowy. They are pet feet so far as frequency of opport unities, speed. cheapness, and safety, an. concerned. In none of these respec's is it even alleged that this new undertaking will benefit the public ! There being, there fore, no advantage guaranteed to the public—there being no possibility of gain to the promoters of this Caledonian Railway (for there is not traffic to support the triple com petition), can it be expected that Parliament will ever sanction such an unjust invasion of private property ? It is superfluous to notice to you the statement of " Plain Dealer," that there are some of those who are officially connected with this Railway who are also pro moters of tie proposed Glasgow, Dumfries, arid Carlisle Line. The statement itself is exaggerated, but it is well fur us that it is even in part true, and I hope the effect of the intimate union of the two undertakings will be a con tinuance of the cordial co-operation of all parties against the common enemy. I beg, however, to state that I my self have no connexion whatever with the Glasgow, Dum fries, and Carlisle Line, or with any of the other under. takings named in the preceding letter, excepting your own. I shall only notice in conclusion what " Plain Dealer" has caid as to the map circulated by our Chairman, show ing (as he says) an actual connexion between the Edin burgh and Glasgow and Ayrshire Railways. It does not do so. On referring to it you will find that the " con nexion" is a dotted line, as are all the other proposed lines shown on the map. The Glasgow Junction Railway, however, is meant to connect the termini of these two lines, and will be before Parliament next session. 1 am, Gentlemen, Your most obedient servant. SHAREHOLDER. Glaxgow, 23d October. 1844. • SECOND EDITION. Standard-office, Ten o'clock. LAMENTABLE SHIPWRECKS. By the Mail from Dublin we have received news which shows that the storm has been very disastrous on the Irish coast, chiefly between Dublin and Drogheda. The brig Shannon, of Whitehaven, struck do a reef of sharp pointed rocks, about two miles north of Balbriggan. F , :ur of the men took to the boat, and though it was swamped the men were drifted ashore alive. Five men remained on board the vessel, which was at length capsized by the vio lence of the waves, and the men for a few minutes were seen clinging to the keel—the next wive swept three of them away, and they were drowned ; a fourth caught hold of a spar, and was saved. Tire tifih held on to the keel, but when reached the vital spark had fled. A large brig, name unknown, laden with wheat, sup posed to be from Wexford, and bound to Liverpool, was totally wrecked, at Clogherabont, and all hands supposed to be lost, es there was no account of any of them. Another wreck took place at Annagasson, near the same place. Name of the vessel unknown. She was dashed into pieces. A large vessel, about 700 tons burthen, named the Rose, of Belfast, Montgomery, master, was driven violently on shore at Skerries, but most fortunately the crew, consisting of fourteen men and one woman, a passenger, were all got off safely from the wreck. She was timber laden. and left Quebec this day five weeks. She was bound for Barest. A large qeantity of timber, and other things belong ing to skips, were picked up be tween Balbriggan and Droghed.; the figure load of a ship and a piece of board with the name " Fairy Queen" was found at Balbriggan. Several small craft were more or less injured at Baldoyl.., Malabide, and along the coast. A large vessel, supposed to be an Indianian—but en inquiry proved unsuccessful to ascertain anything about her—was seen in a wreck. al condition off Ireland's Eye. At Kingstown Harbour, a timber vessel, the William and Isabella, of Sunderland, was disn.asted close to the quay, against which the surge of the waves drove her • with violence: beyond her vies a coal-vessel, which had completely settled down, her masts standing above water. At the entrance of the inner harbour lay the Kingston, of Liverpool, bound to Africa, which had put in for shelter at the commencement of the storm ; she was secured by a hawser to the fur side of the harbour, and by it cable to the quay, and bad every appearance of riding out the storm in safety, when a cry was beard that ani.ther vessel was dragging her anchors ; this proved to be the Capri corn, of Liverpool, a 'West Indian vessel, from San Do. mingo, with a valuable cargo of rum and sugars on board. She had been anchored at a distance of about 400 yards ahead of the Kingston; it was about ten minutes to three o'clock when she began to drag her anchor ; it was fully half-past three before she reached the devoted Kingston. As soon as it was perceived that the collision was inevita ble, directions were given to cut, away the cable of this latter vessel. and to get her round, so that there might he less resistance ; before this maticeavre could be accom plished the stern of the Capricorn had dashed against the bows of the Kingston, the hoed of which went crashing and grinding right through the bulwarks of the former; at every gust of. wind this scene of destruction was re peated, the enormous bowsprit of the Kingston spring ing and starting from its seat, as though it were a lath. It was now evident that were the vessels to con tinue in this regard to each other, both would be speedily dashed to atoms. The crew on board the Capricorn had done nothing ; it was reported they had been ill, and were unable to move. The greater part of the crew of the Kingston leaped on board, and commenced cutting away at the rigging to the windward. Whilst doing this the remainder of the craw got on shore, w ith the exception of one man, who, with great foolhardiness, remained on board. As soon rr the rigging was cut away, the maws snapped across and tumbled over on the Kingston ; to all appearance one (ell right on the man who remained on board, but he with much presence of mind contrived to give a leap away, and his arm only was caught. We be lieve it was only bruised, net broken. At eleven o'clock on Saturday night an alarm of fire was given on hoard the Kingston. An opinion generally prevailed that there was a grrat quantity of gunpowder on board, and this naturally had the effect of preventing the necessary exertions to exticierfsh the fire. The comic,. quence was, that the devouring element got head ; it burned during the en'ire night, and on Sunday the vessel appeared completely consumed to the water's edge The Capricorn, which lay near, had the side net the fire con siderably injured—the burning mast and rigging of the Kingston fell across her duck, set tire to everything w;tb which it came in contact, end wr.re it not for the timely assistance afforded, she would, no &min, hate shared the fate of the other. Opinion is contradictory as regards the origin of the fire; however, the prevailing supposition is, that some persons contrived to get on hoard with dishonest. intentions, and that having made rather too free with rum, of which there was a large quantity in the vessel, the fire took place by accident. This idealits strengthened by the fact that a boy, in a deep state of inebriation, was. found concealed between the rocks were the brig lay. The• Kingston was the property of Charles liorsfalt and Sons, of this town, bnt we have not been able to ascertain i. the vessel or cargo were insured. In additio - n to the above, we have ascertained that " The Success," from Demerara to Dublin. with sugar. experienced a heavy sea and violent gale on Saturday evening, at five o'clock. She had her main top-sail and reef fore-sail blown away, and the consequence was, that she was ►hrown on her beams, and was tiling wi!b water when assistance was afforded ; she was brought into har bour without sustaining any additional injury. A large portion of the cargo is much damaged, and part of her ground tier of sugar was wholly washed away. At Bally breck, midway between Killiney and Bray, a seaman's hat was picked up, in the lining of which there was written—" John Trait, Liverpool, September the 16th, 1843, three." _ _ . . _ The particulars of the remaining disa , turs are given w:th sufficient detail in our Monday's shipping news.
