PHIS Company, in addition to all the usual business of Assurance Companies, offers to the public a new sys. tern of Loans, more beneficial to the borrower, and yield ing a better return to the shareholder, than any system at present in use. Thus any person effecting an Assurance with this Company, can borrow THE FULL AMOUNT of the sum secured by his Policy, upon giving collateral security for the payment of an increased rate of Premium, fixed by the tables of the Company, according to the age of the person borrowing, and the amount borrowed, and interest on the loan for a limited number of years only, which will in effect repay the money borrowed, and main tain a policy on the life of the borrower, and he will not. as in ordinary cases, be liable to be called upon to repay, in one sum, and by a given day, the principal money lent. A reference to the Prospectuses of the Company, (which have been already advertised at length in the papers,) and which contain specimens of the Tables, will show the mode by which the Company effects this object. The Company will also advance money on Annuity, Mortgage. or other securil y. Shareholders will receive a large remuneration in the shape of Bonus, arising from the operations of the Com pany, augmented by the profits on Premiums, paid in connexion with Loans, in addition to interest upon their capital invested in shares besides, by the mode of dis tribution proposed by the Company, the certainty, in ad dition to an increasing rate of interest, of a proportionate increase in the value of the capital, by the appropriation of a certain portion of the accumulated profits to the Ca pital Fund of the Company.

There the Line will diverge into two routes, one of which will pass by Knutsford and join the Birkenhead, Lancashire, and Cheshire Junction, and Grand Junction Railways at or near Warrington ; the other will proceed by North wich and the Salt Districts to or near Preston Brook, there running into the Grand Junction Railway, and join ing the projected Railway from that Line to Runcorn, and connecting itself with the Birkenhead, Lancashire, and Cheshire Junction Railway. All the Lines of Railway projected for shortening and making more direct the route betwixt Manchester and London pass through or near to the town of Macclesfield ; and it is manifest that Macclesfield will shortly be the centre from which will radiate most of the Lines to the Southeastern parts of England from Manchester, Liver pool, and the North. A reference to the Map will show that the present projected Line is most important, as making, with other projected Lines, the shortest and best communication from Macclesfield, Congleton. Derby, and the whole of the Southeast of England to Chester, Birkenhead, Liverpool, Preston. and the North; and the traffic attendant on its route will, consequently, be very considerable, and such as to ensure a large return of the capital invested. Te Line has been properly surveyed, and has been found free from engineering difficulties; and the princi pal Landowners are favourable to its course. The lia bility of each Shareholder will be restricted by the act to the amount of subscription ; and power will be applied for to allow Interest, at £4 per cent. per annum, on all calls from the pasing of the act, previous to which the Subscribers will only be liable to the extent of their First. Deposit. Until an Act of Parliament be obtained, the affairs of the Company will be under the direction and control of a Committee of Management. Power will be applied for in the Act, and in the meantime is hereby given to the Committee of Management, to increase the proposed capital, if necessary; to abandon any part of the Line ; to make Branch Lines, or enter into arrangements with any other Company or Companies; and to nominate the first Directors of the Company. In the allotment of Shares a preference will be given to parties locally in terested and Shareholders in the different Railways communicating with the Line.

The Extension will commence at the Junction of the Main Line with the ,North Union Railway, at or near the Junction of the,teston and Bolton Railway : a reference to the Map will show its importance. This extelision will give to Liverpool, at the least cost, a direct line of communication with Blackburn, and (in connexion with Lines now proposed) to Burnley and Yorkshire, whilst the original undertaking, having regard to existing interests, will afford a direct Railway com munication with Preston and the North.

Mr. AYRES also desires to call especial attention to the emi nent success he has experienced in the prevention and removal cf BALDNESS,and to state that he is confident of restoring the Hair in all cases where the roots are not completely destroyed. His mode of treatment, which has received the highest testiconnials from the press, is never to prescribe until he has tested the Hair by analytical examination, which secures a recipe agreeably to the exact analysisegnd which, by its nutritive, strengthening, and alterative properties, will ensure its preservation and and beauty to an advanced period of life. The prepara tions prescribed by Mr. AYRES for changing the colour of the Hair will not, in the least degree, affect the skin, nor occasion a red, purple, or unnatural tinge, but pro duce a beautifully soft and glossy appearance, and a fixed and equal cclour.

THE GODLESS EDUCATION SCHEME.—The following official announcement of the prelatic move ment against the Government education scheme, alluded to in The Times of Saturday, appears in the Roman Catholic organ, the Freeman's Journal, of this morning :—" We are in a position to announce that the Irish prelates are about to make a movement with respect to the education scheme of the Ministry of the last importance, na tionally and religiously. _What the precise nature of that movement will be we shall not anticipate, but we may say that it will probably be decisive of the education question. The document itself we shall, we trust, be enabled to place before the public in a day or two." It now remains to be seen how far Mr. Wyse will be borne out in the assertion which has been attributed to him, and which, up to the present, stands on " the record" unrefuted, to the effect that many of the bishops were playing a double game ; that, in fact, while denouncing and protesting agaiust the measure in public, they were privately cheer ing on the hon. member for Waterford, as the foremost champion of this identical scheme of academic education. THE SPY SYSTEM.—The following statement is put forward by the Monaghan Standard, a high Orange au thority :—" The spy system is carrying on in Ulster to an extent of which tie public are little aware. The ex ecutive has issued orders to the constabulary to note down the names of persons assembling for political pur poses, of persons appearing in any processions. accom panied by music, or having banners or arms, so that those who attend Orange meetings, or follow teetotal bands, or processions, or repeal meetings, will be known to govern ment. Whet the ulterior proceedingsupon thisinfornsation may be, we know not. However, it is well to be prepared. This must be an unpleasant duty for the constabulary, which contains men of a high sense of honour, who, al though zealous in doing their duty openly, detest the im position of a secret task, which will make spies of them. We ourselves are aware of some communications made to Government lately, where most improper liberties were taken with the names and characters of individuals. We have our eyes upon the matter, but it is not ripe for pub lication yet aphile. However, for the present we reiterate ' ware hawk, there are kites abroad.'" THE WEATHER AND THE HARVEST.—The weather in this locality, during the greater part of the past week. has been unfavourable for the harvest. Up to yesterday morning, induced, we have had frequent heavy, cold rains, with strong winds. particularly on Thursday, which may be called the usual equinoctial gale. The labours of the field have, of course, been retarded, the ground being saturated, and the standing grain somewhat injured, but not, so far as we can learn, very materially. Yesterday was fine, and drying, and from present appearance (Mon day evening), we may expect a continuance of clear weather. A few fine days would see the bulk of the corn in this neighbourhood safely under cover. Nearly all the newspapers of England and Ireland (as well as those of Europe and America) allude in alarming terms to the ravages of the disease, or cholera, amongst potatoes ; and there can be no doubt but some mischief has been sustained by this crop. We hear little or nothing of it, however, in this quarter, and never saw or tasted finer potatoes than those now brought to our markets. In fact, we do not give credit to the gloomy statements put forth, and rather suspect many of them owe their origin to parties who aro interested in running down this parti cular crop, in ord, r that they may obtain a higher price for those articles of food of which they may be large holders. We give the following paragraph from our con temporary of the Preston Chronicle, of Saturday. whose agricultural remarks we have always found to be correct, as refers to that locality :—" The weather this week has not been so favourable for hare: sting operations as it was for the two or three previous weeks, having been for the last few days rainy and tempestuous ; still the out standing f crops hive as yet sustained scarcely any damage in coesrqiience. A great quantity of wheat has been secured in good condition ; a good deal in some places has been thrashed, but the yield is light and the sample rough. Generally, well-eulti vated lands, on naturally poor soils, this year produce the heaviest crop and finest quality of grain, while on the other hand, in proportion as the soil is rich, and where there is a redundancy of straw, on account of the wet weather, less weight will be produced, and conse quently a worse quality of grain. Various are the opinions respecting the yield of the present produce, but in all probability, with the late season of the year, and the de teriorated condition of some of the crops, it will fall short of the once general expectation. Oats are a full, if not above an average crop; beans likewise. Potatoes are looking well, but on some heavy soils they are much affected by the rot, in which cases there will be some difficulty in preserving a winter's store.—The Bolton Chronicle also states :—The fine weather with which we have been favoured has come to a close, but it is satisfac tory to know that the crops in this neighbourhood have almost all been secured. THEATRE ROYAL LIVER.—Last evening, was pro duced at this establishment the opera of " Love in a Village :" the part of Young Mawdaley by Mr. E. L. Hime, and that of Madge by Mrs. H. P. Grattan. Want of space prevents us from noticing the piece at length, but we have room to say that it will well repay a visit. A very beautiful shop (which has been entirely rebuilt) has been opened by Messrs M'Cullock and Co„ as a ge neral outfitting and ready made linen repository, in Church-street.. It is another to the many recent im provements that have been made in shop-architecture, and as the same classic character is kept up in the window as well as the exterior. it has a very harmonious effect. It is, we learn, in the Edinburgh style. A DOUBTFUL CHARACTER.—Mr. Robert Peabody— Bob Peabody he was usually called, in that popular nomenclature which always makes an abbreviated christian name an attribute of the graceless—was a very jolly person indeed. He was stated by his friends to be a " bang-up fellow," " a chick," " a bean," and " a downy card." His enemies called him " a low young man," "a disgusting bore," and some even went so far as to term him " a perfect specimen of the real gent.:; whilst one Temple brrrister in embryo, who had met him, pronounced him " a bad style of man to know."—New London Mug. A tradition is related of the family of a Count of Arge weille, to whom a fairy was believed to have given a crys tal goblet, as a token of her love. The goblet pussed, by marriage, into the house of Croy, and was accidentalty broken. The belief of the family was, that good fortune attended the pos•ession of the fairy gift, and the lady to whom it belonged had the virtue of faith . " If I cannot keep it whole," said she," I can preserve the fragments." Her faith was rewarded, for on opening the cabinet in which she had placed the fragments, she found the goblet as perfect as before the accident. —Dublin University Magazine, LAST NIGHT'S MAIL.

The supply of English Wheat by land-carriage samples from Essex, Kent, and Suffolk this morning was small, consisting al most entirely of new Wheat, and sold readily at an advance Of as per quarter over the rates of this day se'n night.

SMITHFIELD MARKET-YESTERDAY Another extensive importation of live stock for our market has taken place during the past week, nearly the whole of which found buyers at rates about equal to those obtained last week. By far the larger portion was purchased by the butchers; but a few of the beasts were taken for grazi n g purposes. Fro m our cwa grazing districts, the bullock droves, fresh up this morning, were again extensive. In the middling and inferior qualities of beef only a limited business was doing, and previous rates were with difficulty supported. The northern droves are also extensive. The numbers of sheep are F omewhat on the increase, and of improved quality. Prime old Downs com manded a ready sale, at full prices, namely, from 4s. Bd. tb per 81b.

The Lincoln and W ainfleet Hallway is progressing in public estimation. The speculators have got hold of t • , m, . already, and the shares are at a premium ! The project is looked upon very favourably at Nottingham and Derby, and it is rumoured (though we helieve without any foundation) that the Midland Company have their eye upon Wainfleet, in opposition to the port of Grimsby, which seems to have fallen into the hands of the Manchester and Leeds Company. it may, the capabilities of Wainfleet as a port ... harbour are scarcely to be equalled on the coast, and men wonder that so excellent a schethe was rot taken up years ago. it is understood that a company of coal proprietors in the north have guaranteed to deliver best Lincoln, by Wainfleet and the railway, at 12s. per ton . It will cert nnly interfere to some extent with the Grimsby Docks and Railway. A direct line from Hull to Lincoln is about being started. Be that as The Railway Times publishes the following letter, in order to show the mania which has seized men for rail way speculation •,—" I have lately felt a very strong impression, that I might be able to make money by buy ing and selling shares freqnently, and 1 should be much obliged to you, if you would favour me with your opinion whether I had better leave this place and come up to Lon don for the purpose. I hold a situation here of £l2ll a-yea - 6 which I must in that case relinquish. I have about £17,000 worth of York and North Midland Rail way stock, which I conld sell out and speculate with. Compared with the profits of speculation, if successful, my situation is of little importance. My idea is, that the present is the time .to speculate rather than invest, as until the railw iys are completed, ann the system settled, it is difficult to say which will be a guod investment. I have Dublin and Galways in view, and also Cambridge and Lincoln, and expect a rise in them nextsession when the bills pass. If I remain here, and employ a broker. h.: writes to his agent in London, who goes into the market the nest morning, and thus a day is lost. It seems to me that if I was in London I could do many things personally—suck as delivering over scrip, &c• My broker here has the prices of the preceding day to refer to, as for instance, to day (Tuesday) he refers to yesterday afternoon's London list; his agent would have his letter if he wrote to-day, to-morrow (Wednesday) morning—a distance of time which renders a reference to prices here almost useless — for speculation. Though I am aware of this, I should be more confident with your opinion, as you would know exactly how I should go on if I came to town." The writer resides in Liverpool and is unknown to us. THE PROSPECTS OF RAILWAY REVENUE ON THE . . . HALF-YEAR. — We formerly had occasion to notice the fact, that the railways of this country had afforded on the earlier half of this year, an increased revenue of £550,000 over the corresponding period of 1844. This was not at all surprising to us, for the earlier half of 1814 was marked by a gradual revival of trade, and a rapid increase in railway revenue, which was fully sustained in the latter half of 1844. This increase was naturally maintained in the earlier half of 1845, and therefore the increase of that half-year, over the earlier half of the former, was not a subject of surprise. But, as the latter half of 1844 hail the full benefit of the rise, it was by no means anecessary consequence of the great balance in favour of the past half-year that there should be a similar balance on the current one. We are, therefore, agreeably surprised at tbecostinued increase manifested in our returns; which is quite as great as that on last half-year, being already, in two months, au excess of more than £200,000. cannot, therefore, be taken at for the current half-year, over half of last year. Of the £200,00 roNo past months, nearly £20,000 The estimated exces less than £500,00(' the corresponding of i,icrease on the belong to the Midland proper, excluding - its lines on lease ; about £20,000 to the London and Bir tningham ; .g20. 6 1.i0 to the Amalgamated Liverpool. Man chester, and Grand Junction ; and £20,000 to the Dover. The increase on the Great Western is 1:12,000 ; London & Croydon, £10,000; Eastern Counties and Northern & Eastern Counties and Northern and Eastern, £9.000; London and Brighton, £9,000 ; Newcastle and Dar lington, £9,010 ; South-Western, £5,000. —Railway Chronicle. _ _ —Examiner.

UNALLOWED EXTRAS.—The horrible statement that paupers in the Andover workhouse eagerly devoured the putrid marrow and gristle of bonea they had to pound has been completely substantiated, and it is re ported that the Poor Law Commissioners regard with serious displeasure the management by which bones and marrow and gristle were placed in the hands of the hungry. It is said that they have admonished the masters of workhouses to place all such bones out of the reach of gluttonous paupers, or else to diminish their allowance of food in proportion to the quantity of marrow or gristle they filch from the bones. The Board observe that the puhlicis naturally shocked to find that paupers have been thus living literally on the fat of the land, together with a succulent food like the tendrons, which are such a delicacy in French cookery. Such an elan' fare as this was never contemplated in the workhouse system, and the commissioners are much displeased at so prodigal an excess, calculated to make the pauper's con dition an object of envy to the independent labourer wanting the extras of marrow and tendrons de ch evaux. It is a question whether paupers should hence f orth be trusted with bones, as they make no bones of whatever they can find in or on them, and whether stone-breaking should not be substituted for bone-crushing ; but the ob jection to the former is, that there is the pudding-stone, w hich the paupers might be gluttonous enough to make a meal of. It has been suggested that , as paupers have s hown that they can regale on the putrid marrow an d grizt le of dry bones. it might economically be introduced as a regular part of the dietary, in lieu of so much meat or bread ; but this proposal has been tho ug ht t o require con sideration, the price of bones having lately risen Is. lid. the ton.
