TUTS OF LIMITATIONS.
This snit related to certain settlements of which
bad been made zany pan ago is the amtly of Lord
Petri. It appeared that the rectory of Brayton, in York-
shire, consisting of leasehold tithes, MM for lives renews-
Ile for ever, had been sett"ed by Lady atowrion epos her
graadeoe, the ninth Lord l'etre, for life, aid after his death
to such of his younger wins as he should appoint, but in
default of appointment to the younger sons in tail male.,
The ninth Lord Petite, upon his second marriage, in 1788,
induced his younger son, fteorpte William, to join with
him in settling comas freehold property upon the children
of that second marriage. Orono William died son after-
wards, and from that period the leasehold tithes sow in
natation bad been pund through various hands and by
verbose deeds ss if they had been included in the settle-
ment of 1788, together with the freehold property. It bad
lately termed out that these leaseholds bad mover been is-
eluded, and this biU was glad by the neperentatire of the
younger son of the ninth Lori Petra fee the wpm of ob-
taining possession of the property. The ileibms set

and several parcels of native Ceylon have been sold at Os.
to 47i 6d., other kinds have gone off steadily. Rice bee
been rather more inquired for, and some sales have been
made privately, at better prices. Nutmegs and Mace are
about 2d. per lb. lower, and Pimento has declined fully Id.
per lb. In Ter, a fair amount of bus;ness has been done in
Congous out of the late arrivals: the chief sales have been

RAILWAY TRAFFIC DURING THE PAST WEEK.
London, England, 1852-08-02

BELGIUM.

The Praise says it has received the following in-
formation from Brussels :—" '1 he present ministers
will remain in office, including M. Frere-Orban.
Only M. Teich, whose health is seriously affected,
will retire. He is named Prefect of the Luxem-
bourg in the place of M. Smits, who will, it is said,
be appointed to the vacant governorship of the pro-
vince of Namur. The successor of M. 'I each in the
Ministry of Justice will probably be M. Orts, a mem•
ber of the Chamber of Deputies and Prokssor of
Political Economy in the University. It was M.
Orts who, in the discussion of the bill on succes-
sions, proposed to introduce into it the proves-
sire principle. As to the treaty of commerce
with France, it is said the negotiations will he
resumed, and that the Belgian government will
grant protection to literary property. It is un-
derstood, however, that the present ministers
continue in office only provisionally. It is proposed
to convoke an extraordinary sessio.i of the Chambers
fur the despatch of business, and to avoid in it all
cabinet questions. MM. Rustier and Frere will
carry on the business of the government until the
new session, which is in November, and then the
ministerial crisis will be settled, either by a dis-
solution of the parliament or a change of the
ministry."
London, England, 1852-08-02

SWITZERLAND.

The Suisse, of July 30, says it is evident that the
report circulated by several Swiss and foreign jour-
nals, that General Dufour and Dr. Kern were
charged with a political mission to Louis Napoleon
at Strasbourg, relative to Neufchatel, is without
foundation. It is true, however, that some woida
were exchanged between the Swiss envoys, and the
French President upon political subjects generally,
and upon the Neufchatel question in particular.
There was a familiar conversation between per-
sonages long known to each other, but there was
no diplomacy.
The Council of the States decided on the 29th,
after a long debate, to suspend the guarantee to be
given to the constitution of Shaffhausen.

ITALY.

TUSCANY.

The Tuscan Moniteur announces that the Council
of State will be the " Council of the Pr'nce," distinct
from and independent of the Council of Ministers.
The new council will consist of a paid president and
eight paid ordinary councillors, with an indetermi-
nate number of extraordinary councillors without
salaries, and a first and second secretary. The
council is not to have the power of initiating any
measures. It will only meet at the command of the
sovereign, to consider, discuss, and prepare questions
which may be submitted to it by the Grand Duke,
and then only to give their simple advice or consul-
tative vote on them. Another decree appoints the
vice-president, Vincent Gramini, to be the president
of the council.
A third decree announces the termination of the
ministerial crisis. The minister Boccella is relieved
from the duties of minister of public instruction, to
which office M. Cosmo Buonsrotti is appointed. M.
I3occella is much praised in this decree for his past
services, and is charged with a mission to the court
of Naples.

MADEIRA.—Most disastrous accounts are received
of the future pmepects of Madeira. It accrue not impro-
bable that the celthrited wine of Madeira will be a matter
of history. A blight °Cisme sort hos rntirely destroyed
the vintage for this tear, soil seems likely to destroy the
vines themselves. It appears, in the shape 01 a thick white
powder, which entirely corers lb: clusters of grapes. The
inhabitants have MI inoriulised the Portuguese to be per-
mined to cultivate tobacco.

SCOTCH PIO-IRON TRADE.—Our iron market has
been depressed throuuhout the week, and the price has de-
clined fully 2e. per ton. An i crease in the production,
and a falling off in the rhipmeats, combined with a dispo-
sition on the part of holders to realise at the present ad-
vanced rater, and very large stock, now about 38.5,000 toss,
is the cause of the d. pre.oon. Three are now 110 furnace.

make is curtailed, a healthy and perma. •nt improvement
in the trade need not be looked for.-2 oefA Brouh Daily

DEFRAUDING POOR EMIGRANTS.

MANSION-HOUSE.

h eassequesea of an application from Capt.:!.ean,
the aoraramatt emigration agent, summonses were Paned
curly last week to the remitet directors of the " Australian
Oold Mining and Emigration Company," formerly held in
Cornhlll and Austin Friers, and recently held and broken
up in Harp-lane, to attend on Saturday upon the re-exami-
nation of Montague and Tripe, for having obtained monty
under false pretences, and for having conspired to defraud •
number of pour emigrants. Captain Lean attended to pro-
secute, and • Mr. Hudson, a solicitor, attended also upon
the part of the complainants, who, in answer to the 41,A-r-
-atan's observation that it warn never contemplated to put
them to expense in the legal proceedings, said, they, as
countrymen, ignorant of the London practice, had engaged
the assistance of the gentleman, in order that there might
be no question ea to the sincerity with which they meant
to do justice to themselves. Mr. Owens, a solicitor, at-
tended for the directors who had been summoned
but not one of whom appeared. Mr. Sleigh attended as
counsel for Montague, and Mr. Sorrell, solicitor, appeseed
for Tripe. Csptain Smith, the reputed secretary to the '
company, was present. Alderman Sir Robert W. Carden
presided, and woo occupied upwards of four hours in the
investigation, which assumed a deeper interest from the
general report that some of the gentlemen wham. names
were exhibited in the prospectus were involved in the ugly
transactions of the company, and had been engaged in other
speculations of disputable respectability.
Sir R. W. Cullen said it was his intention. if any diffi-
culties presented themselves in the progress of the inquiry,
to direct the City solicitor to take the case under his super-
vision, especially es the emigrants could not, without
serious expense to themselves, take the necessary measures
in • case which might be made complex and perplexing by
professional ingenuity. The emigrants should certainly re-
ceive the most complete protection.
Captain Lean said they were so perfectly satisfied with
the manner in which the proceedings bad been conducted,
that they had given no instructions fur the employment of
legal auistauce. They felt that the alderman, with the
legal aid immediately at his command, would give the
highest satisfaction to the public from the beginning to the
termination of the proceedings.
Mr. Sleigh not having been prevent at the first examina-
tion of Montague and Tripe, the depositions of John Junes
and James Ooerland, the first of whom had paid money to
oat of the prisoners, end the second of whom bad paid
money to the other, in consideration of their passage to
Australia, were read over, sad the learned gentleman ernes-
examined them so ingeniously as to require • very active
vigilance upon the pan of thine who were anxious for the
impartial administration of justice. It ie proper to observe

GERMANY.

The Voss Gazette states that the Superior Royal
Tribunal of Berlin has recently declared itself in
favour of coercive measures to be adopted against the
editors of journals and other periodical publications,
who refuse to point out the source from which they
receive their articles.
The New Prussian Gazette of Berlin, of the 14th,
says:" We learn that M. Von der Heydt, Minister
of Commerce, will have a conference at Saarbruck
with M. Magne, the French Minister of Public
Works. The two ministers will probably come to
an understanding on the question relative to the
navigation of the Rhine. M. de Heydt is accom-
panied by Privy Councillor do Heehne." The meet-
ing of the Chambers of Prussia is Lied for the 20th
inst.
The police of Munich has prohibited the wearing
of the Hecker hats. A domiciliary visit was recently
made at the residence of a person who appeared in
one, and the hat was seized.
The ministerial Austrian Gazette states that the
government of Austria will acknowledge the new
form of government about to be established in
France, but in recognising accomplished facts, Aus-
tria has no intention of placing herself in contradic-
tion to the principles of legitimacy. At the conclu-
sion of its article the Correspondence suggests that
Louis Napoleon will do well not to thrust forward
for recognition by foreign powers, titles, and desig-
nations, which do not essentially belong to the
imperial dignity, and a hich are neither to be recon-
ciled with history nor European international law.
In the sitting of the First Chamber of the States
at Darmstadt on the 13th, a motion was made that
the government should be requested to enter into a
treaty of commerce and customs with Austria as soon
as the renewal of theZollverein shall have been gua-
ranteed. The motion, however, was withdrawn, on
a declaration from the government commissioner
that he was convinced the Zoliverein would be main-
tained.

in the funeral as mourners hurried, fleet taking their seats
in th- meaning coaches. And the parade ground was con-
sequently a centre of great interert, and beats and standing

TURKEY.

The French boat, with the Levant mail, left Con-
stantinople on the 6th, having been detained twenty-
four hours by the French ambassador, who was
anxious to remit to his government the result of his
conferences with the Sultan concerning Abd-el-Kader's
internemerof at Brusea. In these interviews the
Sultan proved himself nervously anxious to fix with
great precision the terms on which he is to receive
' his uninvited guest before the arrival of the Emir.
No important fact in connexion with the loan is
reported. The Austrian legation had come no
nearer to • good understanding with the
Porte. The refusal of the presents appointed
for the Emperor had much offended the Sultan, who
was not at all inclined to acknowledge the preten-
sions of Austria to an exclusive protectorate over the
Bosnian Christians. The old fanatical Turkish
party elated with the victory which, unhappily for
the kingdom it has lately gained over Iteschid Paoha
and the reformers, now proposes to itself nothing
less than the al-olition of the Tanzimat and the
revocation of all the concessions made to Christians
by Abdul Medjid and his father the Sultan
Nlahmand. The Sultan's mother is at the head of
this movement, and the prospects of its success are
such as to fill with anxiety all who had hoped
in the regeneration of Turkey. It is unnecessary to
say that no better pretext than sock • measure could
be desired by neighbouring powers anxious to inter-
vene in Turkish affairs. The differences between
Turkey and Persia are terminated. It has been
agreed that the representative of the Shah shall be
treated as on the same footing with the ministers of
other powers, and that the same rule shall be reci-
procally observed in Teheran. No more exhibitions
of offensive symbols will take place. The Journal de
Constantinople contains lengthened particulars of''
the presentation of Count Baeciochi to the Sultan, a
dinner given to the count by M. de Lavalette, at
which Fund Effendi was present, and to the same by
Fuad Effendi, when M. de Lavalette was present.

GREECE.

The King of Greece returned to his dominions on
the 2nd inst. Hie Majesty's return was the occasion
of a very brilliant exhibition. It was 10 o'clock at
night when the Othon, with the King on board, en-
tered the port of the Pinatas, and all the vessels in

Tbe half-yearly report of the directors of this coMpany
states that of 111,8691. disbursed on capital account during
the past half year the principal items are for works, per-
manent way, and land, amounting together to 99,7561. The
directors have limited the expenditure to the discharge of
the liabilities of the company contemplated in the estimate
of 1949, to the construction of the Bacup branch.
and to furnishing such additions to the station 'coon-
modation and working stock me the increased treble
of the company absolutely moire. The gross treble
for the past half-year shows an IMMO@ of 2,8601. in the
passenger teak, and 8,81.81. in the deeds treble, us com-
pared with the corresponding period of 1851. The loss on

isllianee into which this company catered must be its inde-
pendence and the power of maintaining it, by bringing
their truMe to London end working it independently, whir-
Cher in eonarsion with the North Western or the South
Welters, or with both. (Year.) Ile could conceive that

Mr. Themes oencladed by morading the modem se th.
chairman.

_Major LOUIIT emplaned that by net fellowing out the
agreement with the Great Western Company the directors
bad put the shareholders to needless expense. (No, no.)
Yes, it had occasioned the enormous parliamentary expen-
diture incurred last year, and the outlay for the narrow
gauge line. It was absurd to talk of perfect independence,
for if this company got its line from Oxford to Brentford it
meat still be dependent on the Great Western for the con-
veyance of the traffic between Brentford and London. Au
arrangement with the Great Western for working the traffic
es had been proposed by them, and to divide all the receipts
over 200,00 W., they taking one-third and the Onford,Wor.
eester, and Wolverhampton twi-thirds, would be for the
advantage of both companies. Subsequently Major
Court moved an amendment directing the beard to
open negotiation. with the Great Western for o Ade ur-
pose of carrying into effect the agreement by
them in June 15.11, but there being no seconder the origi-
nal resolution, coofirming the report, was put and carried,
the accounts being postponed to the next battles:ly meet-
ing. Mr. Cohen having urged that his brother, one of the
auditors, had been too ill to go through them.
Mr. THOMAS, in reply to Mr. Cohen, explained that
the traffic contract entered into with Mr. Williams (referred
to in the report) was at the rate of 130, per mile for pas-
senger trains of seven carriages, and 17fel. per mile for
goods trains of 2d carriages of six tons each.
Resolutions were then passed to convert or consolidate
the 601. shares and the 151. preferential shares, when fully
paid up, into general capital stock, to be divided amongst
the two classes of shareholders according to their respective
iateresta,—to triable the directors to deal with the forfeited
shares,—and to pledge the proprietors to subscribe to the
new company for forming the continuation lines from Ox-
ford to Brentford, and from Oxford to Cheltenham,—and •
vote of thanks to the chairman being passed, the proceed-
Lop terminated.

THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY

fashion, after disaster. Procrastination prefers
squandering and killing its way to permanent im-
provement.
To strike therefore at the root of the remedy
we would earnestly entreat shareholders (who we
sincerely believe dislike railway accidents as heartily
as piesengers do) not to clamour too greedily for the
extra, and only just possible, half per cent. of half-
yearly dividend ; but to leave rather a liberal fund
tor the efficient working of their lines, and, let
them remember—for the certain improvement of
future dividends. We would remind directors that
the life and essence of their being as railway mana-
gers are their permanent way, rolling stock, and
executive officers. When they have put all these
upon a thoroughly oomplete and effective footing
accidents will bu hardly possible; then, and not
until then, will they ho justified in spendirg
the money of their constituents in art and in
law. Competition will, in such a state of effi-
ciency, cost nothing; fur the most overwhelming
weapons with which they can arm themselves
against their rivals is public confidence in the punc-
tuality of their trains, in moderate fares, and in such
management as will ensure unexceptional immunity
to life and limb.

On the other hand, while accidents on railways
continue to be caused by too few or underpaid ser-
vants, by ill-constructed stations, because "stamped"
in their construction, by ill-secured fire-boxes and
other deficiencies of plant, the stereotyped sentence—
"No blame attaches to any ono" must convey an
unqualified falsehood. Blame belongs somewhere in
every railway casualty, but the whole secret of the
fallacy lies in this fact—that, properly, the fault is
distributed over a great many persons, not infre-
quently beginning with the shareholders and dirge-
tors, and ending with a policeman or a pointsman.
As two negatives become an affirmative, so, con-
versely in such a case, a great many entities become
a nonentity. An injured public does not know
upon whom to fix the blame—there is no distinct,
tangible, knock-downable delinquent; for out of a
crowd of participating criminals, consisting of direc-
tors, secretaries, station-masters, inspectors of en-
gines, drivers, firemen, policemen, and pointsroen,
Mr. Nobody niagnunimously steps forward and takes,
the entire blame on his own shoulders. Then the
government inspector, the coroner's jury, and even
the vigilant, omnipresent, acute newspaper reporter,
arc all happy to inform a confiding public that " not
the slightest blame attaches to anybody."

EGYPT.

A correspondence from Oenoa announces that Col.
Roses secretary of the English embassy at. Constan-
tinople, has been instructed by Sir Straford Canning
to accompany Mr. Murray, the British consul at
Alexandria, on his return to Egypt, in order if pos-
sible to put the differences between Abbas Pasha and
the Porte in train for an amicable settlement. The
ability displayed by Colonel Rose, when consul-ge-
neral at Beyront, in conducting the negotiations on
the Syrian question, is an auspicious pledge for his
success upon the present occasion.
Private correspondence of April sth, from Genoa,
states that considerable surprise is expressed at the
weakness of the English naval force in the Mediter-
ranean, at a moment when the Egyptian question
more than ever excites general interes►. Abbas
Pacha is arming the fortifications built by M. Gallic.,
the French engineer, who was sent to Mehemet Ali
in 1840 by M. Thiers. These fortifications extend
from Alexandria and Aboukir, as far as the Da-
mietta. This correspondence speaks of the concili-
atory manner which Fuad Effendi has exhibited
since his arrival in Egypt. But this is inconsistent
with the accounts by the Levant mail, which state that
Faad Effendi had not left Constantinople on the 24th.
This mistake probably "rime from the notoriety of
the courtesy which Fuad Effendi has shown upon
other missions. However, it is positively stated that
Fuad Effendi, who was to leave Constantinople in a
few days, has orders to command immediate execu-
tion of the tanzimetat, and, in case of refusal, to
declare war.

RECTOR OP ROW.

"London House, 29th March, 18.52.
"My dear Sir,—l have just seen an announcement of a
sermon to be preached in your church on the 7th of April
by the Rev. J. R. Gladsbene. I take it for granted that
you are not aware of his having been formally inhibited by
me from preaching in my diocese, as I cannot for a moment
suppose that you ...fluid intentionally act in definer of my
authority. 1 think it right to appriiie you of the fact, and to
desire that you will not permit Mr. Gladstone to officiate
In your church.
" I am, dear air your faithful servant,
(Signed) "C. J. LONDON."
THE UT. 0. T. DRIFFINI.D TO THI6 atelier OF LONDON.
" My Lord,— " Rectory, Bow, March 31, 18a.
1 have received your lordship's letter refer-
ring to the announcement that Mr Gladstone, of Long-ecre
I Chapel, is to preach in my church on the 7th of April next.
Permit me to mention under what circumstances I have in-
Tiled him so to do. For the last five years I have hoiden
evening service during the first four days of l'assion Week,
as well as the wind services out Good Friday. It has been
my custom to request some of my personal friends, whom
views of doctrine were in accordance with my own, to
occupy the pulpit on these occasions. I invited Mr. Glad-
atone to the present instance as a personal friend of many
years st ending, and as having by a sermon which ho preached
at Bow last year rendered himself highly aeeeptalile to my
congregation. From these considerations, and in purse'
ante of a wish long previously formed, I some weeks ngo
requested Mr. Glarlstone's services on the 7th of next
mouth, and not from any intention of disregarding your
lordship's authority. As, however, your lordship s letter
renders it necessary to advert to the position in which it is
understood that Mr. Gladstone is placed, I would simply
say that the validity of your lordship's inhibition, as
against that gentleman, being a matter of doubt, and form
ing the aubjeet of legal discussion in the Court of Arches, I
think your Lordship will agree with me that it is an open
and consi.dent course to me, in a moral as well as a legal
point of view, to admit Mr. Gladstone, under existing cir-
cumstances, into my pulpit. I would therefore hope that
your lordship may not feel it necessary to remark furtber
upon the arrangement which has been made. Regretting
that incessant occupations have prevent:d my replying more
promply to your lordship.
" 1 remain your lordship's faithful servant,
(Signed) " U. T. Dittrrixmi."
The Bishop's reply:—
" London House, April I, 1/152.
" Dear Sir,—The question to he settler! in the Court of
Arches is nut whether I have power to inhibit Mr. Glad-
stone, about which there in no doubt, but simply whether he
has disobeyed my inhibition. As you appear to be deterre Med
to set my authority at defiance, notwithstanding your oath
of canonieul obedience, I have directed proceedings to be
instituted for the purpose of enforcing it, and of recalling
you to a sense of your duty.
I am, dear sir, your faithful servant,
