The Brighton Company declared on Thursday the largest dividend it hat , yet been able to do for the summer fislfsyear, namely, 24-. 61. per share. This is 4s. G.I. more than the dividend of the corresponding hale-year of 1845. A portion of this increase (ab tit 24.) however, must he fairly ascrib- d to the pri4it on Hastings shares. A heavy warning to engineers not to undertake we rks which they cannot fairly accomplesh has been administered by the law this week. Mr. Giles, the en it eer, has been assessed in a penalty of not lees +tm £4 51 0 for the im perfections of his plans of the Dudley, Madely, and Iron bridge Railway. The ease of the Oldham, Manchester, Liverpool, and Birkentared- -Jung:ltol3 C-,mpaiiy was opened in the Ilinure Of Lords on-Faiday. The line is seven and a half miles in let.gth, extending from Oldham to join the Manche-ter and Birmingham near Manchester. Estimated cost, £480,000. Favourable evidence was given on Friday and Saturday, EXTRAORDINARY TRA rNs.—Such was the excitement vrevatent in Oldham on Nll.mtay week, on the sulject of the free-trade celebration at Manchester, that the trains passing between Oldham and Manche-te , , in the morning and evening, were of immense length, no fewer than two and three thousand to none being conveyed in some in sta•,c, a by Singh trains.

On Stour. day the evidence was touchi g the wility of the line from Ortnskirk to Sonthport ; but to this branch the committee old-wed, and it waa w:thdrawn. The preamble of the bill was then declared proved.

The tr !fie on the latter line shows a gratifying inorease of 20 per cent. above the corresponding ;Tricot of 1845, and of nearly 40 ler cent. over the traffic nf 1841. It has still a large arti /ince to make to actual prospe ity. The directors state they offered in sell the line to the newly-c nryituted Birken. head.

The following is from De CorZov i's Alf re 'tare radii gencer :•—• 1 Our market is at this moment in a ouch more deptcssed conditi‘in than it was but two weeks ago; and, g as it is under the effects of owe r-tradir g to an t x. tent which has, until this period, been unknown here— suff,iirg from the co, fioed and narrowed state of the money market, which is producing prejudicial resulis on the sorb.lity of some dealers—and a continued want of confi fence—reeling. we retest, under all ih se adv rse cireutnst rums, we cannot picture to ou , selves a worse po sition than that in which we are now placed. shipments to this island shall entirely cease for at least three months, a great proportion of the goods now on hand n ust perish before they ciao be called into consump tion.

The too, k of flour is equal to six months' consumption, whilst th4t or pork, soap, lard, butter, n eal, rice, and corn is tar beyond the necessities of the place. Further arrivals to meet the Present overstock roust entail disastrous results on the shippers. The fine rains which have fallen within the last six or eight weeks will also cause a let further declioe in the demand for bread stuffs, as there will be soon thrown into the market very large quantities of native around provisions. We cannot too strongly impress upon shippers in general the absolute neces,.ily which exists for refraining for some time to make further consignments to this market; arid this is required not only as a means to revive the depressed and dimming cr ndir ion of our trade, hut also to enable their correspondents here to real ze their acrounts.''
