THE NEWRY AND ARMAGH RAILWAY PROJ EC P. A. few days ago a meeting was held at the. Clarendon . 'Rooms, for the purpose of promoting this proposed under. taking. Alluding to the matter, our cotee , ..porary, the Bella:4 Daily Mercury, makes the following sting;ng re marks upon the London management o the Newry . railway : " The Bill for the construction of a Lies of Railway from Gorah to Armagh, having pass-A the Commons and Lartis, now awaits the Boval Assent, but it appear-3 that the principal promoters of the Biil are averse to proceeding further with it.: unless they are indemnified to the extent of the interest flier have in the project. The position in which the matter at present stands is this :—The Standing - Orders of Parliament require that, before proceeding with• a Railway Bill, three fourths of the capital must he ,subscribed, and a deposit ofcl.o per cent, lodged, in order to give some security that the parties are in earnest in promoting the Bill. The ComMittee on the Bill has also the power to im,ocund this dep4sit as an additional security, but the promoters can withdraw it, • on entering into a bond to r , pay it, incase the Railway should not i►e constructed. Now, in the case of the Newry and Armagh Bill, three-four.hs of the capital wus not subscribed i6-nc4:l"ide According to the first sub. , crip ion contract, which is the only 0110 we have seen, the subscription stood thus : • Cap'tal. £‘24,181) 110,000 Subscribed bona fide, Fictitious, . Deposit: £2 ; 418 11,000 Total, . . . . • £l--1,180 £13;418 There was a supplemental contract, however, which we lave not seen, but we believe that it contained been fide subscriptions for some 7,000 sharer out of the 18,000 of which the new Company is to consist. The London Directors who did not sub tribe bona fide, but only for the purpose of a fictitious compliance with Standing Orders, are now alarmed -at the impounding of the deposit. The men who ere placed , in ouch an unp'easant predicament ere — Charles H. Lattimore, who signed for L'563 ; 000 James And roan, s, 71 2;000 John R. Burbridge, „ „ 2 , 8,000 Wan B. Heaeon, 20,000 Wm. Lewis, 19 VI 10,000 And we believe that Mr. ;fames S erling. of the , U'eter Carrying Company, subsequently signed for 510,000. Thus, the subscription contract was prepared for compliance with Standing Orders. The next thing to be done was to gee the money to lodge as a deposit. The sum of £13,500 was not exactly an amount that any of the-above parties would severally or eollect'•vely find it very convenient to part with, even at an exorbitantly high rate of interest. The matter, therefore, was arranged through the Union Barth of London, and the%se,bs:soo lodged as a deposit. That sum is now to the credit of the Accountant-General—it has been ordered to be impounded by the Committee, as a security that the line for which the Bill was sought will be made, and hence the alarm of those gentlemen, who never imagined they would be placed in such a dilemma. Such are the circumstances under which an appeal is now made to the parties interested in having a line of Railway from Newry to Armagh direct—the threat is held out to them that, it they do not subscribe for the shares so as to relieve Lattimore, Anderton, Rerbridge, Heaton, and Co , from the liabilities they have incurred, and in which they will be legally involved, should the Bill receive the Royal Assent, they will stay its progress—abandon it altogether. 'Under such a threat they now appeal to the Irish subscribers to double their subscriptions, and use all their influence to get, the necessary shares taken up. We must say that, on the face of it, this whole mater wears a very suspicious aspect. Knowing.as we do, the history of those gentlemen in connexion with public companies, it causes no surprise that they should now turn .round in so short and sharp a manner on the bona Ade subscribers to the Company, and endeavour to extort from their fears what they failed to obtain from their calm apprecia tion of the undertaking as calculated to prove a remunerative speculation. On a fotreer occasion, we warned the Irish subscribers against those London gentry, as parties in whose management no confidence whatever could he safely reposed. Their single•ohject is to sell their interest in the old Newry and Enniskillen Company, with its four miles of railway, which, under exeellent London management, has cost some £36,000 a mile—this alone is their object, and, in furtherance of it, they are quite willing to sell the interests of all concerned in the direct line to Armagh, if by so doing they can obtain a better bargainefor themselves. The characterless and scandal ous jobbers, who originally usurped the management of the Newry and Enniskillen Company, not only ruined it, and sacrificed every:. Irish interest, hut they did more, they deprived the promoters of the original project df the most remunerative portion of their.undertaking—the extension from Armagh to Enniskillen. They lend no wish to mike the line ; all they desired was to .job and defraud, and certainly they succeeded to a very lamentable extent. Flom first to last, the Company has bee❑ swindled and mismanaged on all hands, and all the interests connected with it have been betrayed. What we would, therefore, impress on the Irish subscribers is this— have nothing further to do with London management. If the parties locally interested are determined to construct a line from Gorah to Armagh, why let them enter Leo the speculation with their eyes open, and carry it out like men having an ordinary regard for their own interests. There is no use in talking sentimental trashery on such a sub ject. The remunerative character of the speculation is a matter about which no second opinion that is worth listening to can exist. Bat, with all the difficulties, engineering and financial, before them, if they determine to undertake the pro ject, and carry it out, we do not see that either the Ulster Company or the Junction can reasonably object—certaiuly, ss regards ruinous competitio'n, or anything approaching thereto, the Ulster C .mpeny has no very serious grounds for appre hension. Wiih respect to the Junction Company, the case is very different. The Directors of that Company have pur sued such a short-sighted and vexatious policy, that the com petition with which they are now threatened may be fairly -enough said to be of their own creating. Some years ago the y -had an opportunity of purchasing the line .from Newry to ;Comb indeed, we understand that, since the Newry and Armagh Bill has been before Parliament, the offer to sell was -again made to them—but they had not the sense to understand how essential it was to tile interests of their shareheiders that they should secure it, and theta effectually guard ag inst ail competition. Their policy has been to mike little of Newry —to disregard its wants and its interests; and the cmse (peaces of their blind neglect will now be visited on their Shareholders. Had there been men among the Directors with comprehensiveness of mind sufficient to understand the per manent interests of their Company. they would have, even at a sacrifice, purchased the line from Newry to Gorall, and taken active and liberal measures to develops fairly the Newry traffic—they would have laid down their own railway to Poi ta downewith a double line of rails, and, in conjunction with the Ulster Company, adopted every legitimate means to accom modate and develope the traffic between Newry and Armagh. Had such a policy been acted on, there is little pre bability, we would ever have heard a word about the formation of a Company to construct a direct line between Gorala and Armagh. The policy that was pursued was not only unjust to Newry, but injurious to the interests of the Junction Com pany. hey expended some thousands in erecing the main line station, and their excuse for this piece of ex'ravagant folly is, that they did so at the solicitation of certain parties in Newry. But, even if correct, such an excuse must go for .nothing. The Directors should have been capable of under standing their own position, and the interests of their Com pany—they should have had comprehension enough to resist all importunities to commit such a blunder ; and it is perfectly obvious that, had they consulted the true interests of Newry, and, of their own Shareholders, such a station never would have been erected. It is cot probable, however, that they will gain much practical wisdom at the eleventh hour. Not many days ago, we believe they could still have purchased the line from Newry to Gerali—a line avhish, to them, would he worth double what it is to any one else—and their neglect in doing so constitutes a blunder they will never he able to retrieve. We have only ono word of advice to give the subscribers to the new temp any. If they obtain their Act, and are determined to ply,up the capital necessary to eonstruct their line, with their eyes open as to its character, why, then, let them take the management of the Company into their own hands? heave th 3 London gents overboard altogether —have nothing whatever to do with them. Remove the seat of the " Direction to Newry, and elect resident Directors, so that the Shareholders may have at least the satisfaction of expending their own money." LIGHT GOLD CAIN.--There- has been published a return by the Bank of England of light gold coin withdrawn year by year from circulation from May, 1842, to Dec., 1856; together with its value, at 31. 17s. 10i I. per ounce. The total tkurah4?.r of ounces withdrawn during that periol is 5,274,500,510, the greatest quantity occuring in the first three years, when the respective amounts werc. 2,067,106,542, 657,436 646, and 851,:38,979.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES. answer to Captain Samuel's letter res -oecting the ship Dreadnought, we regret that • the absence of Captain Enright prevents his reply ing. :at is quite new to us that the Dreadnought ever beat the Lightning, or in fact that they ever hail a race at all—the more particularly as they have never sailed in the same direction—the one • ship always going to Australia 'and the other to New York. Our idea of a fast ship, however, is— the one that is the shortest time between her port of departure and her port of destination. Now the Dreadnought has never been in our trade, but we have once been in her's, and the Lightning and her sister ship the James Baines made the pas -sage, in 1855, from Boston, U.S., to Liverpool, port to port, in 121 days,and 13 days 17 hours, respective- We have yet to learn that the Dreadnought, out of all her numerous passages across, has ever done lit in less.—We are, sir, yours, JiMES BAINES AND CO NEW ACT ON LOAN SOCIETIES.—The New Act on Loan Societies, just passed, "revive," and Continues the law relating to them until next August.

Six Joner POTTER, M .—A rumour has been prevalent for some days, which was referred to by a correspondent in our pnblication of ycsterday, that the resignation of Sir John Potter had been placed in the hands of his com mittee. We are desired to say, on the best authority, that the rumour is untrue, and that Sir John's health is such that there is little or no doubt he will be able to resume !his duties next session.—Manchester Examiner. PUBLIC Ancrioer OF CROPS. —Oa Monday, Mr. Robert Martin, auctioneer, CEonegall-street, set up and sold by auction, on the lands of Mr. Lawther Burnside, Dunadry, wheat at £l5 10s. per acre; oats at £l4 per acre; and potatoes (white rocks) at Is.

It will be seen by the above that the farmers are getting on prispereusly.—BelfastNews Letter. LAND SLIP ON THE Bovril YORKSHIRE RAILWAY.— , Owing, no doubt, to the late excessive rains, an immense mass of rock, consisting of earth and stones, fell in the deep cutting near Warmsworth, on the South Yorkshire Railway, on Saturday night. The greater portion of the material dropped into the large stone quarries at the end -of the cutting, but sufficient fell on the line to completely block it up. Relays of labourers were kept continually employed in clearing the line up to Sunday night. The line was again in work on Monday, but a large projecting point of rock, left unsupported by the slip in the cutting, hangs over the face of the cliff at Warmsworth in a very dangerous position. FATAL ACCIDENT TO A MANUFACIURISR.-0a Tuesday, Mr. 'Ferranti Dearden, coroner, held an inquest at the Rostron Arms, Bridge Mill, Rochdale, on the body of Mr. Daniel Butterworth, aged forty-four years, a cotton manufacturer at that place. Oa Thurs lay the 18th inst., deceased was at his mill, and one of his carters was employed in throwing trusses of hay from the hay loft. Prior to throwing a truss down, the carter looked to see if any one was in the way, but saw no one, so he threw down a truss. Just at that time deceased was passing from his counting-house under the place, when the truss caught him o❑ the head, and injured his spine. He was removed home. Messrs. Wood, of Rochdale, Gillespie, aed Taylor, of that neighbourhood, all surgeons ware called to his aid, but he died on Monday morning last. A verdict of " Accidental death" was returned. THREE BOYS DROWNED WHILE BATHING.—OR Sunday afternoon, a melancholy occurrence took place at Cliffe, near Rochester, by which three lives were los'. The deceased la Is whose names were Alfred Burgess, aged 13 years ; Robert J sines Burgess, aged 11 ; and Thomas liemptoo, aged 12, proceeded to a place called C.iffe Creek, in the Adedway, for the purpose of bathing. Robert Burgess it appeared entered the water first, ard not being acquainted with the river was soon out of his depth. The other two lads went to his assistance, while a fourth ran off to some cot'age near to obtain help. On his return he found them all struggling together in deep water, and immediately afterwards they sank. The body of Alfred Burgess w.is got out almost directly, and the other two soon afterwards, but all attempts to restore animation were o no avail. MANSLAUGHTER f•T YOEK.-012 Monday evening, an inquiry took place before the coroner for the eity of York, touching the death of Margaret Burns, aged four teen years. Her father is an Iriehman, living in Walm• gate, a locality much frequented by the Irish. On Sand ty evening she was standing in the street, with another girl, when an Irish youth, named Conway, give B Ins some -slight provocation, which she resented. The parties then commenced fighting, and 010 es were ex changa don both aides. At length Conway struck the girl a severe blow on the breas - . ; she staggered, and fell heavily on the footpath, and died in a quarter of an hour or twen . y minutea. On a post mortem examination of the body being made, a bruise was found on the breast of the deceased, and medical evidence showed that death had been produced by the blow inflicted .by Conway. A verdict of manslaughter was returned against him, and he was committed for trial. VENTILATION BY THE EITEDI JET.—A somewhat novel application of the steam jet for the purpose of ventilating a coal mine has just been made by Mr. F. H. Pearce, of the Bowling Ironworks, near Bradford. The Leeds Mer cury gives the following account of the application : " The application is at present in operation in a pumping shaft, 120 yards in depth, the ventilation of which bad been stopped by the water rising at the bottom of the pit during the time some alterations were being made in the pampa The water having stopped the air-courses, the pit, to within a few yards of the ;tor, became Lull of the gas known to miners as black or choke damp, which appears, to have been discharged freely from some old workings, and thus it was rendered an impossibility for the workmen to descend until the removal of the gas had been effected, and a cnistant current of pure air produced in the pit. Mr. Pearce has succeeded in maintainieg so perfect a ventilation of the above-mentioned pit, simply by allowing a small jet of steam to issue into the atmosphere at a few feet from the top of the pipes through which the water is forced up when the pumps are at work, and the pit can be worked with perfect safety. The workmen were enabled to descend thirty minutes after the steam had been turned into the pipes. The principle is exceedingly simple. The jet of steam issuing from the top of the pipes produces in them a partial vacuum, which thaws the foul air up these pipes, and thence out of the pit with very great velocity. The cost of applying the steam jet into the above mat.- ner is very trifling ; and this method of ventilation will doubtless be found a safe and useful one in many instances, particularly in sinking deep shafts. In addition to other advantages, wood or any other kind of pipes may be used. It requires little or no attention, no machinery to get out of repair, produces a powerful current of air, and can be regulated at pleasure. As the steam is discharged into the atmosphere above the top of the pi', it doss nut interfere tv th the men woe k rag in the shaft. MR. Janne( BARKER AND THE MAINE LAW.—III letter, slated °metres City, Isfebrselea, 18th July, 1857. Mr. Joseph Barker denies that he ever represented the Maine Liquor Law to be a failure, and exoresies the fol lowing opinion regarding that measure :—I do not know that it will he of any use, bat as my name has been pub• Hely used against the Maine-law men, I would like you to send a few words on this subjeet to the Alliance paper. It is a feet, that most of those who cry out against the Maine law, and who represent it as powerless, are the friends and advocates of the drinkieg system. I have met with some sober people —some truly sensible and good men—who have expressed themselves strongly against legislation on the drinking system—but not many. I think 19 20ths -of those who in this country oppose Maine laws are really enemies to the temperance reform, or under the iefluenee of its enemies; and I imagine —ray, it is past doubt—that those who pronounce the Maine law ineffieient, do sa because they know it to be the contrary. The Maine law was not repealed in Maine by the friends of temperance, but by its enemies. The strenuous oppo nents i f Maine laws in Ohio and Indiana are distillers, brewers, liquor sellers, free drinkers, and the classes natur ally in alliance with them. The friends of temperance go, with very few exceptions, in favour of prohibiting the traffic in intox'casing drinks. As to moral suasion, I hare never met with any Maine-law men who rppose it or undervalue it. The temperance men all use moral suasion, Tney try to enlighten and elevate men's minds. Their efforts to get Maine haws passed cause a vast amount of discassiou on the temperance question, both in print and public assemblies, in private circles and legisla'ive halls, and thus aid the spread of temperance truth among the people.

The Cotton Market continues very active, and prices exhibit an advancing tendency, being now about *1 per 4b. higher than on Friday last. The sales to-day were 15 000 bales, including 3,000 on speculation and for export. There was a better ieeling manifested in the Liverpool Share Market to-day. There was rather more busin3ss done, and prices were a shade higher than on yesterday.

The Market for the Public Fun Is and Securities to-day was very steady. The demand for money was not so active, and the supply in all quarters is described as being abundant and in excess of the requirements of the commercial public. The bill brAers are, therefore, inclined to negotiate paper under the Bank rate ; and so confident are many of the permanent character of these symptons of relief, that the possibility of a decline of half per cent in the Bank eff England minimum has been discussed. Looking at the extraoriinary effiux of silver to the East, however, and other contingencies, it cannot be expected thrt any sn3ll movement will take place at present, because the Bank of Eng land, as shown by the recent returns, has lately become weaker, and some time must necessarily elapse before the directors, under the most favourable circumstances, will be justified in in extending their discount operations. It is satisfactory, however, to notice that the withdrawals from that establishment have received a decided check, and if all the specie arrives that is expected in the course of the next month or six weeks, we may probably find the bullion again increasing. One matter for consi deration in a financial point of view, and to which attention is now drawn, is the position of the Bank of France, which it is feared may probably compel the administration of that establishment to renew their purchases of Gold. If this, unfortunately, should prove the case, the two-fold draining to the Continent and to the East cannot fail to cause considerable disturbance. The steamer Colombo, to leave Southampton to-morrow, will take out about 1,200.0001. sterling, and it will be therefore impossible that an additional drain can be sus tained without a serious displacement of our metallic supplies. Consols for Money closed this afternoon at 911 to 913. and for the Account at 9I to 913 ; Exchequer Bills 4 dis. to 2 par., and the New Three Per Cents 91Z to 92.

By a report addressed fo the Board of Trade from the British Consul at Bahia, respecting the cause of the preference given to foreign vessels over British, it appears that misters of the former are more careful than those of the latter, and de liver their cargoes in better order. If, therefore, the Brazil trade is to be retained in our hands, he seggests that more care be observed by both mas ters and shipbrokers. A. report addressed to the Board of Trade men tions that colonial vessels are too much accustomed to leave port with very inefficient anchors and cables—it is alleged, in the hope of b e i ng su p p li e d by any of her Majesty's vessels they may be fortunate enough to meet with. It appears by the advices just received from America that the crops of Grain throughout the United States will fully realise the expectations of those who have reported upon their appearance. There is no reason to doubt the statement that the harvest will be the most abundant ever known. The Cincinnati Gazette has the following estimates of the crop of 1857, compared with the production of 1849, in the nine great grai❑ growing States of the West. It says the estimates are based on a sound data in relation to increase of popu lation and ratios of production, and on the assumption that the crop of this year will be a full average : Estimated Wheat crop, of 1849. Wheat crop of 1857, Ohio ... . ... 14,500,000 Indiana Illinois Kentncky .... 2,200,000 Tennessee .. 1 ,650,000 Michigan ~ .. 5 000,000 Wisconsin .... 4 200,000 Missouri .... 3,000,000 lowa Aggregate 47,550,000 This shows an advance of 55 per cent. on the pro: duce of 1840. The increase of population is about 35 per cent. ; so we have allowed a large margin for more favourable crops. Looking to the con sumption of Indian corn bread, thecconsumption of wheat for flour and seed in these States will not exceed 45,000 4 000 bushels, so that there will be, assuming an average crop, 28,000,000 bushels for expDrtation. This is probably double the amount which went out of the north-west to the Atlantic coast. Corn crop of 1849. Corn crop of 1857. Bushelp. Bushels. Ohio .. Indiana Illinois .... v ... 57,650,000 Kentucky .... .. 53,700 000 Tennesse Michigan .... . 5 ,600,000 Winconsin . .. 2,000,000 Missouri ... .. 36,200,000 .... lowa 332,450,000 . ...443,000,000 This is an increase of 33 per cent , or about the same with the population. Of this great cereal crop full one-half goes into surplus, partly in bulk, partly in pork, lard, whiskey, and cattle. There will bo a greater surplus in 1857 than in 1850, by full 60,000,000 bushels, which is equivalent to an increase of $30,000,000. There %%ill be half the same increase on wheat, and one-fourth as much on oats. The advance in hay, which is already much cf it gatlexs,4,l, will be lull 15,000,000 more, which chi€fly appears in the weight of cattle, horses, Sze. In addition to all these considerations, we must remember that the crop of 1856 fell below that of 1849 very much. If our hypothesis of a full average crop should turn out true, we think the surpluses of the west- will be from $80,000,000 to $100,000,000 better than in 1856. There is a full demand for these, and our railways furnish a ready and cheap outlet to all markets." The following is a report of to-day's London Wool sales :—" Messrs. Southey and Son, and Mr. H. P. Hughes, have sold Wool to-day. The attendance of buyers was less numerous, and the biddings were not so active as of late. In prices, however, we have no change to notice. The imports of Silver from the Continent con tinue very extensive, and fully account for the continued remittances of gold thither. Within the last day or two, the steamers Panth er an d Triton have arrived in the Thames from Boulogne, the Clarence, from Antwerp, and the Rainbow, from Rotterdam, bringing a total of 172 cases 8 barrels and 25 bags of silver, estimated value of which is about £lBO,OOO. These arrivals help to account for the recent fall of 1,1 per ounce in the price of silver, which. may tend to render the future withdrawls from the Continent more moderate. It is understood that, in addition to the silver brought by the Magdalena, a consider able quantity of the metal drawn from the conti nent will remain over, after the departure of the ColomLo, and will, of course, be available for the ensuing steamer of the 4th September. There is an impression that the shipments on the 4th of September will be considerably less than those by the Colombo, but much will depend upon the next advice's from India. With reference to the market for American rail way securities, Mr. E. F.
