All the shares being taken, the works will be commenced without delay, and a part of the Line from London to Waltham Cross, through Tottenhatn 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 from 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. 'rhe 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. id. " The calculations of remuneration do not "depend upon the contemplated extension of the line, but it is expected that the re snueration 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; for although two other lines were brought before the Committee at the commencement of their inquiry, they were both withdrawn at an early period, and without sufficient evi dence being adduced in their favour.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 on the proposed railway which will re quire to be worked by assistant engines, either stationary or locomotive. `The fitness in ali.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 I:1,200,000, 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 When .completed, is from 40 to 41 per cent. of the gross annual income, and the calculations on which this change is estimated, appear to the committee to have been 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 milt 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.

Considerable facilities and privileges are _given to Associa tions of the kind now formed, by an Act of Parliament of the 10th of Lleorge IV, intituled "Au Act to consolidate and amend the Laws relating to Friendly Societies," and also an Act of the 4th and sth IVilliaut IV., to extend the benefits of the same ; and to obtain the benefits of these Acts it is re quisite to conform to certain, Regulations; but, as these are designed to promote the good order and sectirity of such So cieties, it has been concluded that the National Provident In stitution should be establiibed under their provisions. Among the advantages afforded by these Acts to Societies conforming to their Rules, are the following:- Ist. An entire exemption from all the Stamp Duties on their various transactions, which would otherwise be liable to heavy charges. 2 , 1 - . Permission to employ any part or the whole of the money in Government Securities, at a, higher rate of interest than the public funds produce. s This Institution is strictly one of Mutual Insurance for the equitable division of all surplus funds. The premiums will be found lower than most other offices founded upon the sante libe ral principles. It presents to the industrious and prudent Mechanic or Arti san all the security and benefit of a savings.' bank on an extended scale. To those engaged in business, or the .professions, or holding situations in private or public establishments, whose incomes mainly depend on their own exertions, it affords an easy oppor tunity of securing some provision for that period of life when the energies of the most robust are no longer equal to their necessities. To the more affluent, and to all classes in proportion to their ability, it will be found that this Institution, in its Life Assur ance department, promises to realise considerable advantages, as the accumulation of its funds will be for the benefit of all its Members. _ For further particulars apply to S.

AmEnIcAN 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 men went on shore for supplies, leaving the mate and cabin-boy in th e s hip. The deck swarmed with islanders; when it was apprehended an attack had been made on the boat's crew ashore, as the captain was heard caliing to the mate to load the muskets. The mate, hearing this, sprang on board from the natives, who had 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 fortmast, and short of provisions. Having shipped a native crew at Ascension, she sailed for Oahu, 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 Hannington, 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, nut nothing had been heard of the remainder, who, with Capt„ Braynter on board, had One 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. FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 8, 1836.

It is therefore proposed to corm a Company, for purchasing Shares in Mines, (confined to Carnvvall,) yielding large present profits, and,in new.and promising Alines, 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.

THE REGISTRATION.—EIectors should bear in mind that the time of preferring claims for county votes commenced on the 20th June, and ends on the 20th July ; and, with respect to borough voters, it is required, before their names can be put on the list, that all the poor-rates and assessed taxes due by each voter, previously to the 6th of April, be paid before the 20th July. lam, be iLiberpoot *tan barb. "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 abovementioned, 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, fur 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 sof 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 is 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 CARLOS, 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 leis arid - their friend General EVANS -placed I How they 'will extricate themselves or him we shall know shortly. "The way of transgressors is hard," 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, surroundedby swarms of needy sycophants who deceive, and assailed by thousands of flaming patriots for commii 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 mitting day by day 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 possessor•, cannot exist lon g without bringing down retribution upon the guilty par ties. The cabinet paid the fee at Litchfield House for the support of the beggar and his tail, in the promise of the Irish municipal reform bill. They paid it unwill ingly, but the- alternative was the loss of place, and with men who had thrown principle to the winds, and embraced the wizard of expediency, 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 fell well that no sur plus exists to appropriate—these are scandalous means which sooner or later will crush the faction, and consign them 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 consider it as such, but kick Lord John and his collegues as much as you please, you cannot kick them out of their place and pay. They will submit to any indignity rather than give them up. Why the majority is not even the number of the tail! But, say s the ministerial hacks, it is the majority of the people of England. Quite the reverse. Were the matter left 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 the 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, HOME, 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 (Melbourne administration. Collision in deed ! The ministers may exclaim, like orator SHEIL with his seven millions ! We are 26 I! ! 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 awky the monarchy, tho 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 s t ren gthened. 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 hold. Our readers will observe by the extended report of the Council proceedings of Wednesday, which will be found in another place, that a decision was come to which bids fair to make the members 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 schools 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 the Amphi theatre. WOOL SALE. Yesterday forenoon, an extensive sale of foreign wool took place at the Exchange-rooms, Exchange-buildings, in this town. The attendance of buyers was not 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. T. and 11. Littledalu 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 remainder consisted of Spanish, German, Austrian; &c. The purchasers were chiefly from Leeds, liuddersfield, and Dewsbury, and the surrounding neighbourhood, and the bidding was briskly kept up through out the sale. Some of the lower descriptions were bought in again, but were afterwards disposed of by ptivat.e contract. The whole of the Australian parcels sold extremely well, and at an advance of front Id. t 0 Id. per lb. upon the prices of the sate of the 24th ult., varying frouris. 7d. to 2s. 10d., according to their respective qualities. The, East India lots, 47 bales of which went off at the sale at from sth to 120. 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 Roman catholic prelates of puttinga cross before their names, has led many persons, who know n o better, to imagine that their rei,ereuces cannot write, and only affix their niark. JLLv 8, JG THE REGISTRATION. We strongly urged all conservatives, in our last publicatima, not to overlook the important steps requisite to be taken before the 20th instant, in order that they may be duly enrolled as electors either for the county or borough. We cannot too often repeat to them our earnest sqiicitations in tbis respect. The register must never be forgotten, much less at a time when it is 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 fol 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 163 A. B. Place of abode, Nature of qualification,—Freehold house, or warehouse, stable, land, field, annuity, rent charge, &c., as the case may be. giving such description of the property as may serve to identify it. Where situate in this parish (or township.) If the properly be not situate in any street, lane, or other like place, then gay 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 seine qualifi cation, and continues in the same place of abode described in the register. Borough Foters.—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 lust 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 within such borough, occupied by him as owner or tenant of the clear yearly value of not less than £lO, and all rates and taxes due for the same before the sixth of April, is entitled to be placed on the list of voters published on the last day of this month. The premises occupied throughout the twelve months need not be the same, but may be different premises occupied in im 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 thp. 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 be 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 in the parish or township of , in respect of house, Sze, situate in -street, in aforesaid, occupied by me, and I herewith tender the full amount of any rates now due in respect of such premises. —Dated this day of 1836. The same precaution should also be used, and the same no., 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 heir: l g 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 are thirty-one causes which are defended, eighteen undefended causes, and four inquiries. Only eight of the causes have been disposed of. We are obliged from press of matter to omit giv ing a report. ACCIDENT.—On Monday last, as a person named Moffit, and another man, were driving along Shaw-iiieet, in a gig belong' ing to Messrs. Richardson and Cowburn, the horse suddenly became unmanageable, and set off at a furious rate, veering alternately from one side of the street to the other, and threaten ing to precipate both vehicle and inmates into the dangerous hollows That line certain parts of the road. After running ie this manner for about two hundred yards, the rapidity of the motion, together with the shelving of the road and the weight of the driver, who is a very lusty man, caused the gig to heel over, and it turned completely bottom upwards." Mr. Moffit and his companion were thrown in a heap beneath it: the former had his face severely cut, and was for some time insensible; the latter providentially escaped without injury. The ho r se was immediately secured, and when released from the:gig re mained perfectly quiet. With the exception of a slight wound on the back of the hoof, the horse sustained no damage. FlRE.—Yesterday about one o'clock, as some carters were turning up a cart opposite Mr. Willis's warehouse, in Wapping, the cellar under which is occupied by Mr. Hallows, and filled with sulphur. seine part of the iron-work of the cart striking against the stone pavement produced a spark which igniting some scattered sulphur, the flame ran and communicated with the sulphur in the cellar, the whole mass of which was in stantly in a blaze. The cellar also contained thirty-five casks of oil. The fire eneines, under the superintendence of Mr. Whitty, were quickly on the spot. The smoke, however, was so intense and suffocating that there was no getting down into the cellar, and it was so thick that the firemen could not tell where to play. Hewit twice went down into the cellar with a rope tied round him, and was both times draeged, up insensi ble. w . At length a hole was b ro k en th roug h th e well and the cel lar completely deluged with water, and in about twenty, minutes, the fire was extinguished. The building itself has undergone but trifling damage: the whole of the sulphur, however, is de stroyed. It is fully insured in the Phoenix Office. THE BOILER MAKERS' CLUB.—On Monday about three hun dred of the members of this club paraded the town, "accom panied by bands of music and banners. A large number of the same club, accompanied by a band of music, arrived from Man chester by the ten o'clock train in the morning. The mem bers as a body looked very respectable and were very neatly dressed in blue coats and white trowsers. They conducted themselves with the greatest order and regularity, and in the afternoon dined together at various public houses in the town. DRUNKARDS BEWARE OF THE STOCKS.—On Tuesday, at the Police-office, a number of persons were brought up after the po lice busin ess was conc l u d e d, as i s ge n er ally the case , to be dis charged they having been fined ss. for getting drunk and •not being able to pay, had been kept in custody all day before and all night and were brought up that day expecting to be dis charged.
