Beans froth his seed had this year made more money, three times 'ow, the average being £33 per acre, as was well known to the meeting, his golden melon seeds were in the highest repute for this season, audit was said that Ftillard's corn was as good as two harvests in one year, which is attributed entirely to his ju dicious selection of seeds from abroad, in which he has bestowed much pains fur the benefit of British agriculturists. As further proofs of the estimation in which Mr. F 'a servi c es have been held, he is, prowl to state that he has received a piece of plate from the agriollenrists of Yorkshire, and a gold medal in the city of London. - ,%ly Seed, Wheat, and Beans I intend to send to Mr. George Preston, Nurseryman, Armagh, and Mr. Lindsay, Nursery man, Belt , st.

Prevention of so dreadful a calamity as Fire will I. always be considered of the first importance to Society, and the discovery of a Composition which renders timber and other materials indestructible by that element, will form a new era in the building of Houses; Shipping, and every erection in which wood is employed. The experiments which have been already submitted to the Public have convinced the scientific world of the extensive utility of this Invention, and of the - impossibility of burning Timber when covered with this preparation. By an easy and cheap process. Walls. Ceilins, Partitions, Staircases, &c. can be covered with this Fire-proof material. It is alike applicable to Houses under repair as well as when building—a slight coating being sufficient to secure the wood-work from . burning. It is susceptible of as fine a Polish as marble, and can be painted over or stuccoed with ornamental devices, in accordance with the taste or design of the architect or builder. • As it would be impossible for the individual exertions of the Patentees to render an invention of such immense importance,, and so truly national in the extent of its application, beneficial to the general interests of society, without the aid of an influ ential proprietary; they have therefore decided on establishing a Public Company for securing from Fire.

The Proprietors feel it necessary to advert to the intrinsic value or this Invention, further than to state, that from the satisfactory results of the experiments., the whole of the late calamitous tires in the metropolis would have been entirely prevented from extending beyond the apartments in which . they first originated, by the use of this Composition. • • • ~ A deed of settlement will be prepared, with all the usual and requisite clauses, in which will be inserted an explicit condition that no Shareholder shall be subject to any further risk or liability than the amount of the Shares he may have subscribed for.

Warranted not to contain COPAIBA,,CIJBEBS, or any deleterious ingredient. *** With each Box is viven — a Treatite.on .Venereal. and Syphilitic Diseases, with observations on seminal weakness &c. &c., containing► hints worth knowinwhy those who are, or have been stifferers to this dreadful and : devastating malady. Dr. DAY I ESON continues to dire •t his attention to those dis orders arising from the too free and indiscriminate indulgence of the passions, which not only occasion a numerous train of nervous affections. but also entails on its votaries all the ener vating imbecilities of old age. In that distressing state of de bility and deficiency, whether the consequence of baneful ha bits, excessive drinking, or any other cause by which the powers of the constitution become enfeebled, he offers a firm, safe, and speedy restoration to sound and vigorous health. It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall victims to the ve nereal disease, owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate men, who, by the use of that deadly-poison, Mercury, ruin the constitution, and when the great Doetor Swedour became Professor at Ley den University, he conferred an invaluable benefit upon man kind by the discovery of his grand Panacea, for the cure of this deplorable complaint. Never did a discovery excite a greater sensation, it was sought after with avidity, and used with the undeviating success in the most minute and intricate cases of the delicate complaint. for the cure of which they have been so long celebrated. The fame of these Pills throughout Germany, caused their 5 peplv introduction into almost every country.' The certainty with which they were continually administered can be attested by many thonsands. In fact, diiring the long conti nental war they were the inseparable companion and safeguard of the soldier, in all cases where the slightest suspicion of infec tion was entertained. What medicine-can he more appropriate than that which hnegiven such general satisfietion ? 'The flyg ian Herb Pills root out every particle of insidious poison, puri fying in their progress the whole mass cif fluids. They not only remove the disease, but renovate by their action the different functions of the body. expelling the grosser humours,. and in a manner so mild and imperceptible as to convince the most sceptical of their astonishing and unequalled powers. The neither contain mercury nor any other mineral, and may be taken without the slightest sospkion of discovery—they require no restraint of diet, loss of, time, nr hindrance of linsiness, hut effect a complete cure, without the least exposure to the patient. At any period when the slightest suspicion may exist, it will be well to have recourse to the Hygeian Herb Pills, for when taken before the disease has made its appearance it acts as a certain preventive, by moving the complaint effectually and secretly. The deplciable state in which many persons have heen when visiting the proprietor, from the use of mercury, renders it im peratively necessary to ca ution the public against that dangerous mineral when injudiciously administered.. These Pills should forma portion of all Medicine Chest 4, by sea and laid, and ought never to le omitted by any person going a long voyage or journey, their properties arc such that neither heat nor cold will injure their quality, or prevent the due effects on the constitution. Dr. Davieson will attend daily at his residence, from Fight in the morning until Ten at night, (on Si,ndavis from Nin till Tis,o,) where he gives advice to all applicanti taking any of his preparations.

DERCEIVING that Paosioti still Advertises his " stale, flat, and unillofitable" tale of woes and injuries' inflicted upon him by me, I think I am called upon to enter more fully into the statement of facts than I did in my former Advertisement. Whether Mr. Promoli persists, like the vender of Quack nostrums, to advertise upon the supposition, (as the quacks calculate,) that, for every person in the world possessing common sense, there are one thousand f0015..1 know not;-but this I do know, that Mr. Promoli has no just cause of complaint against me. I have no doubt that the Bazaar is as heavy a weight to Mr. P. as the Globe is to Atlas; and, there fore, if the interesting and soliciting Advertisement will bring support to the burden, it may be excusable; though, at the same time, I think - it-would be mote amusing if he would ring the changes upon his tale of sorrow. Au in nious beggar con tinually moves his position or alters his app ranee; and we have known instances of men making foitu es in this way, simply by imitation. Mr. Promoli will under tand how this applies, and, I trust, he will be benefitted e hint, and not make a picture of fun of himself. If my brier Thomas overcharged his statements as to the great profits that lied and , usight be real ized from this bazaar, 1 am sorry for it; but I must remark, that I had nothing, either directly or indirectly, to do 'with th'e ne gociation betweeen them, and if Mr. P. has had a hard bargain he ought not to vent his complaints on tne. 1 was in Liverpool in business long before my brother came here, and was doing well, when, at the earnest request of our late father, I took him into partnership, and, as he was the elder, !Allowed his name to stand first in the firm. We disagreed, and dissolved partner ship upon certain conditions, which my brother has not fulfilled, but which I am now compelling him by law to do. Mr. Promoli knew, at the time be was yegociating for the Bazaar, that a right was reserved to me to establish myself in the same line of busi ness as Mr. P. now carries on, and in any part of this town. Under these circumstances, I leave the public to judge whether the complaint of Mr. Promoli, put out in such a sinister way against me, is just, and whether complaint (if any) ought not to have been made by J. C. WOOLFIELD , Glasgow House, 30, Church-street. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. (From the Sunday Times.) •• • CITY, SAT U RDAY.-It is satisfactory t o s t a t e that the • indica tions of a return to activity in most branches of commerce are becoming more general. The American, the East Indian, and the West Indian trades, are, comparatively speaking brisk, as compared with their previous state. Money for commercial purposed continuer, however, very abundant. It can be bor rowed upon stock, or other approved securities at 2 to 2% per cent., almost to any amount. It is anticipated tlf/tt there will be ere long a brisk demand for specie for export to the Baltic ports, to meet the cost of Foreign .Grain. The backward state of the crops in this country, and the injury they have sustained by the severe weather, rendering it improbable that anything like an average harvest will be housed. According to the ac counts from the United States, the prospects of the farmer there were not by any means favourable, and the stocks of foreign grain were much reduced. A large exportation of wheat from foreign, as well as from British ports, to America, may there foie be anticipated during the next four months. This will, in some degree, tend to lessen the balance of trade, which is be coming rather extensive against this country. , The information brought by the Great Western steam ship from New York to the Bth instant, is of much importance. The Banks, or - at least many of them, bad commenced specie pay ments, both in New York and Boston, but it is said those of Philadelphia, including the United States Bank, would not fol low the Same course. From the latest. returns which bad been completed, it appears that the specie possessed in the aggregate, by all the banks of the United States, was nearly as great as it was six months before the - suspension took place; tnat not less than 6,000,000 dollars in gold had arrived between the Ist of January and the Bth instant. The total reduction in the circulation of the banks since the panic begun', is about 38tnillions of dollars, and the whole amount of paper money afloat (viz. bank notes), was estimated on the Ist instant at no more than 100,000,000 dollars, and the diminution in the deposits had been 46,000,000 dollars. It is not surprising under these circumstances that so long a period has occurred without any marked improvement in tnooey matte's in America. The total am o unt o f specie in th e vaults of the United States' Bank on the Ist inst. was estimated at between 38,000,000 and 40,000,000 of dollars. The Ameri ' cans continue to press forward their produce with the utmost activity, especially cotton. Front the last letters it appears that the actual shipments of this article this season, has been 982,000 bales, exceeding the exports of 1837 by 200,0(X) hales, and those at the corresponding period of 1836 by 320,000 bales. Of To bacco, Turpentine, and other articles, the quantities coning, forward are also very considerable; under these circumstances a very long period cannot now elapse before we have a brisk export trade in manufactured goods to the United States.. prices of Stock hive fluctuated rather frequently this week. The tendency of the prices has been downwards for the last few , days, money having been in increased demand. Several con siderable amounts of Stock, as wed as of Exchequer Bills, have been pressed upon the tparket by the speculators which have reduced the value of Consuls Non 94i to 91R ; of the Three per Cent Reduced, from 931 to 921 ; a nd of th e New Three-and-a- Half per Cents Reduced, from 1021 to 104 A material de cline has taken place in Exchequer Bills, in anticipation of ad ditional issues of this species of security ; yesterday sales were made at 60 premium, being 10 lower than the price obtainable on this day week. India Bonds are also cheaper, having fallen from 78 to 62 premium. Bank and India Stocks have suffered a depression of about ito per cent., but upon the lowest prices a slight improvement took place yesterday, when the former closed at 2044, and the latter at 2761. The changes on the Foreign Stock Exchange this week have been unimportant, excepting in Spanish, Portuguese, and Bra zilian Bonds. A fall in Spanish took place a day or two back to 213 1, but yesterday 21i was obtained, as the news front the northern portions of the kingdom was favourable to the consti tutional cause. It is still very doubtful what plan will be adopted by the government of Spain to obtain the supplies she requires. An opposition to M, Aguado's proposal for a new loan has been started, which was under consideration at the date of the last letters. The Five per Cent Portuguese Stock fell on the Thurs day to 341, and the Three per Cents to 241, but the market closed better yesterday. These prices are about 2 per cent., under those obtained last week. Brazilian Stock has reached 811, the advices received last week of the possession of Bahia by the Imperial troops having been confirmed. Very trifling altera tions have taken place in Russian, Danish, French, or the other European Bonds. Mexican Stock has declined to 27, in conse quence of the advices of the blockade of the portsof that repub lic by the French fleet off that station. The Share Market has been very dull this week for all se curities of this description. The Asphalte Shares have declined considerably; the London and Birmingham Railway Shares, after reaching 178, or 88 prem., have fallen to 174, or 84 prem.: the Great Western Shares have advanced to 95, or 30 prem.; and the North Midland to 411, or C 4 prem. Brighton Shares have receded to 8L or ,} prem., only. 'The Shares of the Joint Stock Banking Company command a better sale. HALF-PAST TWELYE.—We have no advices of a late date front-.the colonies or any pat tof the world, if we except the usual continental mail. There is but little doing at present in the t British Stock Mar ket. Consols . for Money and Account fetch 911.; Exchequer Bills realize 60; and India Bonds. 68 prem Bank Stock' at 201/. . • In Foreign Bonds the market is 'less active than it was yes terday. Spanish Consols realize 211; and Portuguese New Bonds 34. Belgian Bonds are worth 1011, and Dutch 21 per Cent 541. In Shares but little business is doing, nor has any material variation in prices occurred. LAUNCH OF AN MON STEAMER. On Thursday last, her Majesty's birthday, an iron steam yacht, the Glow-Worm, of nearly 400 tons measurement, was launched from Mr. John Laird's iron building-yard, North Birkenhead. She is owned by Thomas Asheton Smith, Esq., and is generally admitted to be one of the handsonest and, at the same time, strongest and best finished steamers afloat. The following are, we believe, her dimensions : Length. l6O feet Beam, within paddles 22 feet And her draft of water, with machinery and all stores, in not expected to exceed 5 feet 6 inches. the - Glow-worm is divided, by watertight partitions or bulk heads, into seven compartments, which not only add materially to her strength, but render any serious damage, in case of get ting ashore or coining into collision with other vessels, almost impossible. The security against fire in iron vessels, their great speed' with small proportionate power, their strength, buoyancy, and great capacity.for stowage having been so satisfactorily proved by the experience of the vessels already built, have, we under stand, already draw to them the attention of the parties inter ested in the companies formed and forming for transatlantic steam navigation ; and, front this and other circumstances, there is every reason to suppose, that they will be universally adopt ed. The Glow-worm will, in a few days, proceed to Glasgow to take on board her engines, making by Robert Napier, Esq . ., and we hope, when complete, will equal the most sanguine expecta tions of her spirited proprietor. George the Third used to say that he bad constant occasion to consult the best lawyers in his dominions, and not a man amongst them could do anything but refer. SHAVING SOAP.—Ruh well in a marble mortar an ounce of Castile soap with two drachms of salt of tartar. Add by degrees half a pint of fine lavender water,. with two grains of camphor dissolved in it. When the whole is well, incorported filter it, and keep it in cl ose ly stoppe d bottles. For use, put ten drops into a small wine-glass full of water; dip the shaving brush in, and by rubbing it on the chin a fine lather will he produced. To SALT BUTTER.-Beat very well up together in a marble moriar, half a pound of common salt. 4ozs. of saltpetre, and 4ozs. of powdered loaf-sour. To every pound of newly made butter (the milk being well drawn off by beating) put an ounce of the mixed powder ; incorporate it well, and put the butter in pats for keeping. In about a month—not before—it will be fit for use; and it will continue for ten years as good ad butter. newly salted. -'~ • • • 'AN DA RD. kmpcnal iiaritamEnt. MUSE OF COMMON.—WEDNEsnAY. LORD'S DAY BILL ~ _a ,4 M‘r. ,PLuAiPTHE moved the order of the day for the house going into committee on the Lord's Day Bill, but experienced considerable difficulty in procuring a chairman. The chair was at length taken by Sir G. SINCLAIR, amidst shouts of laughter from the ministerial side of the house. On the first clause being proposed, Mr. hay's said it was a most preposterous clause, for its tendency was to prevent-any work whatever from being done on the Lord's-day. A person could not even get his breakfast, or have his bed made, without violating the provisions of this clause. Mr. PLUMPTRE said be thought that the hon. and learned member must admit that there was a feeling in the country that something should be done in this matter. He was most desi rous to obviate the objections of the hon. member, and be thought that might be effected by the omission of a few words. He would put it—" Any Work in the way of trade—any selling or contracting in the way of trade." After. some . discussion, in which several members took part, The CI-Witch:Luta of the EXCHEoUEIt had very considerable doubts whether the bill could be so limited as to become practi cable; if he thought it could be, he would have much pleasure in supporting it. Because he entertained those fears he could not, either for himself or on the part of others, charge himself for the responsibility of the bill. He believed the object which the hou. member had in view was rather to be attained by Moral effects than legislation. (Heat, hear.) Sir It. PEEL entirely concurred with what had fallen from the right hon. the Chancellor of the Exchequer. He advised his hon. friend to make his enactments as precise as possible, and to avoid the necessity of exceptions, which would have the effect of a legislative sanction for the profanation of the Sabbath. He (Sir Robert Peel) thought that it was desirable to put a stop, to fairs and markets upon the Sunday, and also to the opening of shop's on the part ,flf a few in particular trades, when pulliccorivenience did not require it. (Hear, hear 1 It was intrinsically unjust that restrictions Upon recreation should he impqsed on the poor which were not imposed upon the rich. ( Hear, hear.) He advised the hon. gentleman (Mr. Pluniptre) to withdraw the bill, ;( Hear.) Mr. PLUMPTRE was willing accedo to the wishes of the house. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) He accordingly withdrew the bill. The house resumed, and the bill was withdrawn. SPIRITUOUS LIQUORS SALE BILL. Mr. GILLON moved the second reading of the spirituous liquorssale bilL . . . . Sir G. CLERK expressed a hope that hon. memberS opposite would join with those en his (Sir G. Clerk's) sid e o f the house in opposing this bill. The bill proposed to repeal a law of a most salutary charactera law which prevented persons incur ring debts in alehouses or public-houses from being used in the courts of law for debts so. incurred. He moved, as an .amend ment, that the bill be read a second time that day six months., STi.l.4irr said. that the hon. member for Elgiti, the under Secretary of State for the Flume Department, was ab sent from illness; but he could state that thegovernmentwould certainly have opposed the bill, if they had not every reason to suppose that it would have been withdrawn. The house divided :—For the second reading, 16;:for the amendment, 59; majority against the second reading, 43. CUSTOD Y ,OF INFANT'S BILL. Mr. Sergeant TALFOUR D moved that this bill be read - a third time. Sir E. SUGDEN, in opposini.7, the miition, said if this bill were suffered to pass, the'proper title to designate it would be " A bill to facilitate separation and divorce bet Ween husbands and wives." The right hon. gentleman concluded by moving, that the bill be read a thkrd_time,that day six months. After a short discussioa the !louse divided, when there ap peared—Tor the third reading, 60; against it, 14; majority, 46. The bill was then read a'third time and passed. ,The Bribery at Elections Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Wednesday. Adjourned at half-pait ten o'clock. tIOUSieF CO M MON S. THURSDAY. „. . Mr. H., T. HOPE took the oaths, and ills seat as member for Gloucester. . . POOR-LAW COMMITTEE. Mr. FAZAKERLEY, in answer to a queslion from an hon. mem ber on the opposition side of the house, said it was most likely . that the poor-law committee would Make their report this session. SCOTCH CHURCH. , Mr. WAINES presented petitions from Bolton, in Lancashire, and a dozen other places, against any additional endowment to the Church of Scotland. NEGRO APPRESITICESHTP. Lord J. RUSSELL begged to ask the hon. baronet the mem 'her for Warwickshire, whether he intenderito move for leave to bring in a bill, or to take any other measures in consequence of the resolution adopted by the house on Tuesday night. Sir E. WILMOT said his answer to the noble lord would in a 'great measure, depend on his reply to a question which he (Sir E. Wilmot) would put to him. He would ask the noble lord whether it was his intention to do any thing to carry that reso lution into effect, or to annul or to rescind it. Lord J. rt(ASELI. said that it was, in his opinion, not necessary for the government to take any steps.to annul or to rescind the resolution adopted the other evening. Monday next, should that day suit him, would be at the disposal of the hon. bart. to follow up that resolution. Sir E. WI r.moT said, that he should not to-night inform the noble lord of the course which he should adopt, but on Monday next he would give him a direct answer. Lord J. RUSSELL could only say that he really hoped that the hon. bart. would give him a distinct declaration at the earliest possible moment.—(Hear, hear.) Whether that resolution was to be left on the journals of the house by him, without any pur pose, or whether the hotice would support its decision for leave to bring in a bill, was of the utmost importance to the West In dies, and to the peace and welfare of the apprenticed negroes. Sir B. WILMOT said, that he would certainly state what course he should pursue either on Monday, or, if rossible, to-morrow night; and he would undertake, in addition, that any measure he might bring forward should be of such a nature as the forms of the house required,. Lord J. ItossEi.t. thought teat the hon. bart. might be pre pared to give him an answer to-morrow ; if he did, he was ready to meet him on the subject on Monday. lf, however, the hon. bart. was not prepared take that course, he should reserve to himself the right of stating to-morrow what course he thought it would become the duty of the gofernthent to adopt.-- (Cheers.) DANISH CLAIMS. Mr. CRESSWELL moved that an address be presented to her majesty, praying that commissioners Might be appointed to examine the cldixias of thoie Who sustained losSes on account of the seizure of ships and cargoes by the Danish government in in the year 1807. The motion was opposed 1. , v the SOLICITOR-GENERAL, the CHANCELLOR of the EiccHwEß, and Mr. GOULBURN, on the ground that the principle sought to be established in this case was contrary to the practice of nations, and would be most dan gerous if admitted. After considerable discussion, the house divided upon the question, when the motion was carried by a majority of 34, the numbers being—for the motion, 115; against it, 81. THE ROXBURGH ELECTIOiI Sir J. GilAitsst, then moved for leave to bring in, a bill to disqualify Hawick from being a polling plebe for the county of Roxburgh, and enabling the sheriff of that county to appoint other polling places in lieu thereof. In support of the mo tion he entered into long details of the extraordinary and riotous proceedings at Hawick during the Roxburghshire elec tion. Mr. E r,Ltot explained those proceedings. and declared that there was not more riot and confusion than he had witnessed in that house that night. The discussion was of a rather stormy character; but no de= cision was come to, as the debate was adjourned: HOUSE OF LORDS.—FainAi. The Marquis of LONDON BERRY intimated that he would bring forward his motion regarding Spain on the 4th of June, and that on Monday he would present a petition on the subject of the coronation. IRISH EDUCATION. The Bishop of EXETER brought forward his motion, proposing resolutions declaratory that the national system of education in Ireland had failed to realise the promises held out in Mr. (now Lord) Stanley's letter to the Duke of Leinster, as to its uniting protestants and Roman catholics, and that, ou the contraq, i$ had promoted and increased disunion. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE opposed the motion. The Duke of WELLINGTON admitted the correctness of touch of the representation of the Bishop of Eketer, but thought that, as the system had been commenced, it ought not to be irn pilled, and that the government should be urged to see realised the original intentions of the grant. His grace mo ved, as an amendment, that the house proceed to the orders of the day. After an extended discusiion the house diVided the num bers were--contents 26, rioia contents 71 majority against it 45. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—FRIDAY., Lord MORPETH reported f rom th e G a l wa y (b or ough) election committee, that Mr. Lynch had been duly elected. Mr. AGI.IONBY presented the report of the committee regard ing the rebuilding of the Royal Exchange. Lord EASTNOR reported, from the Devizes election Com mittee, that Mr. Dundas has not been duly elected, and that Mr. Heneago had been duly elected, and ought to have been returned. Mr. FAZAKEELEY, as chairman of the poor laws cdmmittee, in answer to Mr. Harvey and Lord G. Somerset, stated that, without being able to say when it could be obtained, the com mittee, were most anxious to hear the evidence of certain metro politan parishes, as St. George's, Southwark, &c., that bad taken considerable interest in the new act; and that as to the report, which would follow a necessarily protracted inquiry, it. would, he believed, be of a general character. Lord PALMERSTON said, in answer to Mr. E. Tennent's in quiry, that he had no official information of any collision having taken place regarding disputed boundary, as concerned British Guiana and the Brazils, that he understood there bad been some proceeding on such subject, and that he had directed inquiries to be made. C4PTURE OF THE VIXEN. Sir STRATFORD CANNING presented a petition regarding the seizure, by Russia, on the north-east coast of the Black Sea, of an English vessel (the Vixen, it was understood), complaining of the irregularity of the seizure, and the non-interference of the British authorities. Lie stated that he shouldbring forward a motion on the subject on the 7th June. Lord PALMERSTON observed that he would content him Self with remarking on one assertion in the petition—namely, that the expedition was sanctioned by the Foreign-office—in other language, by him ; it was totally and entirely untrue. NEGRO APPRENTICESHIP. Sir E. WILMOT stated that it was not his intention tn bring in any bill founded on the resolution regarding the jimnediate emancipation of the negroes. Lord J. RussELt. said that, had any such bill been proposed, the government must have strenuously opposed it. He intended on Monday to move resolutions, declaring that it was not ex pedient to adopt every measure which could tend to secure every advantage and privilege heretof6re enacted and contemplated for the apprenticed negroes • and that the most anxious atten tion of the house should b e directed to strengthen the condition of the negro population when they should be entitled to freedom. It was agreed, on the motion of Lord J. Ii OSSELL that.the chaplain be directed4o preach before the house on the 29th of May. troxßuriciti F.l.EcTrox. The adjourned debate on Sir J. Graham's motion relating to Hawick as a polliiigplace, and the Roxburgh election, was then resumed, and chiefly occupied the remainder of the sitting. After much discussion, in which the lord advocate, Sir Robt; Peel, Lhrd John Russell, &c. took part, the house divided on Sir J. Grahava's motion. The numberi were : for the motion . 250, againit rt 272; majority against the motion 22. The magiitrates of 1-lull have resolved to prohibit parti es from hawking and ering shrimps in the streets on Sundays, the act of parliament only 'specifying mackerel and milk us articles allowed to be sold on the Sabbath day. t. ~.~ • 'l4 'N 4N) .~ \~ ~ \ OPENING OF THE ;MANCHESTER AND HOLTON RAILWAY. The opening of the Manchester and Bolton Portion of the intendel " Manchester, Bolton, and Bury Railway" took place on 'Thursday morning, when the directois,, and a number of the proprietors and their friends, proceeded to an experimen- • tat trip from this tewu to Boltun.and back, preparatory to the line being thrown open to the public 611 Tuesday next.—A mongst the company present were James Brancker, Esq., chairman of the directors; Jelin Bibby, Esq., director; E. D. Falkner, Esq., ditto; George Parsons, ditto; W. S. Miller, Esq., law clerk; James Kitson. Esq., treasurer; John Hawkshaw, Esq., engineer; • Robert Price, Esq., (of Liverpool,) together with the following proprietors:—J a m es Hutchinson, Esq, R. C. Harvey, Esq., C. S. Parker, Esq.. John Moore, Esq., J. G. Chamberlain, ESq., John Fletcher, Esq., Benj. Frankland,Esq , Francis Gouthwaite, Esq., C. J. J u ll o tt, E sq., J o hn M c F arlan e , Esq., Jas. Tyrer, Esq., Robert Marshall, Esq., R. H French, Esq., H. H. Grounds, Esq., W. Burland, Esq., W. Dugdale, Esq., E. Here, Esq., John Hore, Esq., Crawford Logan, Esq., Win. Logan Manifold, Esq., Peter Manifold, Esq.. Lawrence Peel, Esq., J. A. Timm, Esq., Alfred Webb, Esq., Peter Wright, Esq., William Bromilow, Esq., and Arthur ThoMpson, Esq. It is, perhaps, known to most of our readers that this line of railway was originally intended to have been formed on the bed of the present canal, and that valuable property was bought by the railway proprietory ostensibly with that view; but it was thought advisable, after an act of parliaftient had been obtained for that purpose, to repair and continue the canal in use, and apply for another bill (which was ultimately obtained) to en able the company to form a line of railway independent of it. At the same time the company availed themselves of the excel lent opening into Manchester which that canal and the adja cent land, forming part of the purchase, gave them, by bring ing their railway into the town along its banks, whilst their amended act gave them the power of diverging considerably to the left of it beyond Pendleton and Agecroft. These explana tions, perhaps,,may be necessary to some of our readers, in or -der to give them an idea of the reasons which have led to the completion of the line having been so long protracted beyond the time it was reasonably supposed such a work would occupy iAconstruction. Thus, though the first bill was obtained in 1831, yet owing to the time which the company had to wait be fore they could get their amended bill through parliament, it was not till the latter part of the year 1835 that a portion of the line forming seven-tenths of the whole could be commenced; and when it is recollected that the works on this line are of greater magnitude in proportion to its length than those of any other railway in the kingdom—there being scarcely a yard of it which has not been attended either with embankments or cut tings of from three to 25, and in some places of more than 30 feet—it is not surprising that its completion has occupied nearly three years. The line commences with a temporary station in New Bailey-street,- and runs over a noble viaduct of brick work, consisting of 38 arches of about 21 feet span, and nearly of the same height, (crossing Irwell-street,) and is continued by an embankment and other arches over the company's canal and Ordsall Lane, to near ()Meld Road, under which it passes by a slight cutting similar to that on the Manchester and Liverpool line. From this point it runs by the side of the cans] under Windsor Bridge, and it'continues from thence nearly parallel with it through a part of Mr. Fitzg,erald's land at Pendleton, as far as Agecroft Bridge, w h ere it leaves it and diverges consi derably to the left. The line continues from this point over the beautiful valley of Clifton, entering Pepper Hill near to Clifton Hall, and passes through Clifton Wood to the Village of Ring ley, and from thence by way of Clamer dough, through part of which it is carried by a tunnel of 975 feet in length, to Halshaw Moor, passing through the estates of Benjamin Rawson, Esq., of Parley, Hall, and of John Bentley, Esq. A little beyond this point it passes under the Manchester and Bolton turnpike road, and aiew yards further on Under.the road to Farnworth, at a distance of little more than a mile from Bolton, and continues thrinigh Burnden, passing . Liver-street Bolton, under a stone bridge of eight arches, and t e rminatifi g at Bradford Square, near to Trinity Chuich, where a Commodiona• station, and booking and other offices have been erected. The only stations on the line are at Ringley and at Agecroft bridge, The weather on Thursday was extremely favourable for the opening excursion, and at a little before eleven o'clock the directors, proprietors, and their friends, including ladies and gentlemen from Manchester, Bolton, Liverpool, Bury, and other towns, to the number of about 150, assembled at the station in New Bailey-street, where a first class train Of five carriages, attached to the Victoria engine, and a second lass consisting of one first class and four second class carriages attached to the Fairfield engine, were waiting to convey their along the line. The first class train, containing principally the directors and a few of their friends, with the reporters of the Manchester press, left the station precisely at eleven o'clock amidst the shouts of a:concourse of people assembled to witness the event, and of the workmen on the line. The speed was gradually increased till the train had passed under Windsor Bridge, when it . moved along at a rapid rate, reachin g A gecro ft B u id ge in about eight minutes; the village of Ringley in 16; Halphaw Moor in 20 minutes; and arrived at the station in Bolton, a distance of neraly 10 'tides, in 26 minutes after leaving Manchester, having made no stoppage on the road. We believe, however, that the ordinary time of aceomplishing the. journey by the first class trains will not occupy more than twenty minutes. The second class train, which left Manchester 10 minutes later than the first, arrived at BOlton 12 minutes before 12 o'clock, having accomplished the distance in 38 ininutes including two stop pages on the road, one of fi ve an d th e other of three minutes. Great numbers of persons had as sem bl e d a t various points along the line, and especially near the terminus in Bolton, and - loudly cheered the trains is they passed. We may here mention the carriages of which the company have 15 of the first class and 21 second class, made by Messrs. Mather and Chantler, Pin-mill, 'Ardwick, Mr. Carr, Bridge : . street, Messrs. Melling and Co. Green-heys„ and Mr. Cooper, of Bolton. They are equally elegant and commodieui with those on the Grand Junction line, the second class being en closed and differing only from the first class in not being lined and cushioned, and in having no arms to the seats. They are pannelled with good bay wood, handsomely painted and var nished; the window of the doo r i s o f one large square of plate glass, and there is a smaller pane of plate glass a quarter of an inch thick on each side the door, so that the passenger can sit in comfort, protected from the weather, without been excluded from a view of the country through which he is passing. They form a striking contrast with the unsightly-looking pig-pens called second class carriages on the Liverpool and Manchester line. The company have six engines in readiness, and four others are expected to be ready in a few days. The Victoria engine, we perceived, by the name it bore, was made by Mr. Edward Bury, of Liverpool, We have before noticed that the rails on this line, instead of, .as on the Liverpool line, being laid down on sleepers placed equi-distant a few feet from each other, are laid upon a continuous line of sleepers formed of large blocks of solid stone of nearly a foot in thickness, by 18 inches in width and four feet in length, (and on a great portion of line on long balks of timber, Kyanised to prevent decay) sunk on a foundation of about 12 inches of gravel cemented with lime. The rails are of great strength, about four yards in length and slightly sunk in the stone, resting at either end on an iron chair, to which they are secured by nuts and screws. The c h a i r i s also let into the stone, being secured on each side by strong bolts running through the blocks oistone. The jbints are formed with . great nicety, and the work appears altogether of a sub stantial and lasting character. , The effect of this to thos e wh o have travelled oa other linei itpon felt, the motion of the car . riages being much easier, au specially on the wood sleepers, when it is scarcely perceptible.• For the journey back the whole of the carriages forming the two trains were joined into one long and splendid train of car riages, with the Victoria engine in front and the Fairfield in the rear; and the whole moved off at a slow pace from Bolton at about a quarter to one o'clock, stopping occasionally on dif ferent parts of the line fiir tile company to get out and view the formidable cuttings and embanktrieuts which had been required in the construction of the railway. The first of these which at tracted attention was the heavy cutting on passing under the Farn*Orth-road, about a mile and a half frOna Bolton, which runs through the park of B. Rawson, Esq. to a point near the church or, Halshaw Moor, gradually deepenin , to 21 feet below the surface, where the line enters the tunnel We have already mentioned. Over this cuttin g a r e sever al li g ht and elegant stone foot-bridges, connecting the estates through which the line has been cut. By a judicious contrivance of the engineer, the tunnel has been lighted by a shaft being sunk from the sur face, about equi-diStant from either end, whichlis covered with a glass dome ; and the unpleasant Sensation felt by many per sons in passing through the dark tunnels on other lines is thus obviated. The time occupied in passing through the tunnel by a first class train is barely 30 seconds. Pursuing the course of the line from Bolton homewards, it emerges froni the tunnel in Clamor Clough, and through a deep cutting in Stone Clough on the village of Ringley, and is carried through it upon an em bankment of great height, and More than a . quarter of a mile in length, taking its course by a deep cutting through Clifton Wood, the property of the family of the late Ellis Fletcher, Esq. Indeed from the tunnel through Ringley, Clifton Wood, Pepper Hill, and the valley of ,Clifton, a distance of several miles in length, the works are of a most stupendous nature, and created Much surprise amongst the visitors who were sttangers to the line. Nor were the company more surprised at the ob stacles which nature had fruitlessly opposed to art and the in domitable spirit and enterprise of man, than they were delighted on many points of the line with the beautiful landscapei spread before them, especially to the left [on the :ight hand of the road from Manchester]; and indeed we should imagine that to the class of paisengers bent on pleasure no portion of equal length of any line in England will afford such a variety of pleasing, romantic, and picturesque scenery. The country along the whole line (except where interrupted by cuttings), as you pass it in the railway carriages, appears like a series of constantly revolving panoramic views of the most diversified and striking character. The last great work which the company alighted to look at was the embankment, from Agecroft Hall to Clifton Hall, a distance of from 400 to 500 yards, above 20 ft. in height, and which must have been raised at an en ormo us cost, the na ture of the ground having been such that the canal had to be diverted and the enabankment raised on its former bed. The company were again taken up at Agecroft Bridge, and Afew minutes sufficed to bring therh once more to the station in New Bailey-street, from whence a considerable portion of the gen tlemen proCeeded, about two o'clock; to partake of THE LUNCH.

After a most hearty dinner, rather than a lunch,—the country 'air wonderfully improbes yoUr citizen's appetites;—the cloth having been withdrawn, the company ftirmed thernselvei into a convivial party The CHAIRMAN said he was sure it must be a source of great gratification tip all that it had so Happened that the opening of this railway had taken place on the hitth-day of our gracious Queen—(a burst of applause)—and not only so, but that it had also happened that the very engine which had taken them on their first trip along the line was named after tier majest y.

The VICE-CtiXtastAri said the company had witnessed: this .t -~ -"~ , - .._, '29, 1838. day the preparatory opening of the MancWester and Bolton Railway, a work which he hoped would repay the proprietary for the expense to which they had gone in its construction. He had pleasure in informing them that the directors had, the day previous, directed a dividend to be made upon one branch of the company's property, he meant the canal; and it would be speedily carried into effect. (Hear, hear.) He trusted that , from both, in a short time, the shareholders would derive a pro fitable return. Their worthy chairman had remarked that. the opening to-day had been most auspicious, owing to its beingithe birth-day of our gracious and beloved sovereign, whose name was borne by one of the engines. He begged to observlso that the name of the other engine was the "Fairfield;" and he could not help wishing that the proprietors might ever have a " fair field" open to them. They had had an addition to these engines with them, also the representatives of that mighty en gine which regulated and governed our social system—whose effect was felt at times in stimulating us all to do our duties — and whose mighty power was too well known and felt in this kingdom not to command respecthe meant, " the Press." (Cheers.) He might also mention as a circumstance of this day that they had been honoured with the company of the fair sex.. He would : say then let " the pre s s" and "th e fair sex" go together;—(cheers and laughter)—and he begged to propose as the next.toast, "the press and the fair sex." (Cheers.) Mr. BaosilLow, of St. Helen's, said he rose to propose a toast which he was sure the whole company would agree with him ought to .be drunk in a bumper He begged to observe that he had been one of the first shareholders in this line, and let others ferrn their opinions of 'its value as they might, he would only say for himself—and he knew something of the line that I won't sell!" (Laughter and cheers.) He begged to propose "the he a lth o f th e Wo r kin g C omm i ttee. " (Ch e ers.) Drunk with three times three. Mr. FALKNEH, having been called upon to respond, said though it was ntanv years since this line was first projected, since which tithe the Leeds and Selby Company had obtained a bill, formed a line, and were at work upon it; yet this com pan must not deceiv e themselves as to the real time this (the 13 n and Manch es t er R a il wa y) h a d occu pi e d i n const r uc ti o n. It s but abOut th ree y ears s i nce th e y o bt a i ne d th e i r bill f or the :it construction of the greater portion of the line. In 1831, it wee true, they obtained a bill to make a railway liv converting the existing canal into one. And here he might iibserre, that the purchase of that canal by this company was a master-stroke of policy. It enabled the company to obtain into Manchester such an entrance as they could not otherwise havelpossibly obtained, by the purchase of a piece of gronnd which would one day return them a honest profit. (Hear, hear.) In 1832 they went before parliament for an actito amend their former one, and to enable the Company to carry the railway along the side of the canal; finding that the benefit derivable from the latter was such as not to be overlooked, for it was seen that the canal, which cost the company only from £BO,OOO to £90,000, was likely to pay a handsome dividend. And it had indeed paid;them back a gross revenue of £12,000, or nearly approaching £13,000 per annum; enabling them, exclusive of the expense which it, had been at tended with, to divide from £BOOO to £9,000., The expense to which he alluded had been incurred in repairing. the canal, the banks of which were in a very dilapitated state at the time of the purchase. The purchase of the canal, with its banks, he had before said, was made because it gave them an excellent entrance into the town ; and the obtaining of a new bill carried them on till the year 1835, one . year having been lost ,by the parlia mentary practice requiring a year's notice of such bills being given. It was then, the proprietors went for the line overwhich the company had travelled to-day; the deviation from the former line commencing at Pendleton, and taking the railway up to the higher part of Bolton, and avoiding there by an inclined plane on the road which would have required a stationary engine and ropes to have worked the carriages up it. (Hear.) By this ju dicious change too, the proprietors had accomplished another important desideratum, by overcoming the only obstacle to a continuation of their line so as to toim a communication with, that of the Preston and Bolton railway. ' (Hear, hear.) Thus in reality three years had not elapsed since the bill was obtained, enabling them to make seven-tenths of the whole line. It would not be said that the formation of such a line had been long ill construction by those who had seen it this day carried over the. valley of Clift o n ! (He ar , h ear .) With th e p ro fit s o f th e i r cana l the proprietary, he had already said, had reason to be satisfied;: and he trusted that the traffic by railway would be equally pro% fitably to them. He would conclude by proposing to them OA health of a gentleman whose abilities, in his early as well as pre sent connection with the company, had been greatly instru mental in contributing to the success of the works. He proposed " The health of Mr. Hawkshaw the engineer." (Cheers.) Mr. HAW KSHAW sa id that if custom had not rendered it necessary for him to acknowledge the compliment uhich had. . been paid him, gratitude, at least, on his part would have cont strained him to do so, however unaccustomed he might be to public speaking. ( Hear.) He had known this railway upwards of seven years. It was true it bad been a long time in hand from . first to last; but it must be recollected that soft timber was of the quickest growth, and they must hope that, though their line had been long in construction, like the oak, it would be the harder wear, and last the longer. (Cheers.) The di ffi culties.' attending its formation, owi ng to t h e nature of its locality, had this day been witnessed and explained ; but it must be recollected that if these difficulties had been great, they were not without their use, inasmuch as they would form a barrier to the con struction of a competing line for at least half a century to come. (Hear, hear.) There was another peculiarity about the situation of Bolton. It could only be said hitherto to have been connected with Manchester by a turnpike road, only a small portion of its merchandise being transmitted along the canal: it might be said to be only a sort of suburb to Man chester rather than a distant town —a sort of bleaching croft to this metropolis of the manufacturing district; and as such it had increased in an equal proportion. And if this increase had. been so rapid hitherto, how much more so must it become now' that it was brought so much nearer? In his opinion it would now increase in a double ratio, thus securing to the line a re turn for their expenditure, increasing with every year. (Loud cheers.) The CIIAIRMAN next proposed " Success to the Town and Trade of Bolton." - —..„... Mr. JOHN M'FaRLANK said he rose not so much to respond to the toast as to make an observation on what had been said on the locality of a piece of land over which the railway en tered Salford. He happene,d to know something of that land, and any gentleman conversant with the map of Manchester must see the . me ans a ff or d e d o f making a road by throwing a. bridge across the river, to Connect Chorlton-upon-Medlock with it, and thus open a direct communication between those parts of the town. (Hear, hear.) He thought it was not difficult to see that the time was not far distant, therefore, when this land would becdme valuable to the company. He looked at the rail way as the future means indeed of connecting the south with. the north, by an union of the proposed Manchester and Binning- ' barn railway, with a continuous line northwa rd of Bolton. Mr. HAWKSHAW rose to answer a question put to him through the chairman, as to whether the timber forming the sleepers on. which the rails of the line were laid had been Kyanized ? lit stating that it bad, Mr. Hdwkshaw said he had before omitted to mention a cause which had greatly added to the expense and length of time in constructing the Manchester and Bolton Rail way. He alluded to the fact that all the cuttings, embankments, and bridges on this line had been made of more than 'ordinary width with a view to the ultimate laying down upon the road of a third line of rails. (Hear, hear.) All this could be done with. the slight additional expense of the iron, and the expense of laying it down. This was a capacity which no other railway at present constructed possessed, and was done with a view to the ultimate adoption of one of two objects, either as a means of preventing the line from being too much crowded, should it become the means of connecting libes to the north and southo' or.of forming a separate line for the carriage, at a slow rate, of heavy merchandise along it.

He saw no difficulty in its way which might not be overcome. A good deal of perseverance, mixed up with a good deal of money, was an excellent recipe for accomplishment (Laughter and cheers.)
