THRHATICKLHO TO SHOOT A RAILWAY AGENT.-
At the Macclesfield Police Court, on Wedoesday, William
Dixon, a young man, respectably connected, was charged
with sending a threatening letter to Mr. Gorge Walker,
goods agent to the Loudon and North-Western and Nord;
Staffordshire Railway Companies. Yr. Walker said the
prisoner had been in the service of the two railway com-
panies for seven or eight years. Witness had occasion to
raspect him on the 29th July of doing something moil,
and on that day the prisoner left his employment and did
not return. On the 31st, witness received the following
letter by poet, written in the prisoner. handwriting:
" Manchester, July 30.—George Walker, 1 intend shooter
thee. I shall certainly be thy end, if it takes twelve months.
You scamp ! ball you off when you little think of
it. You discharged me the other day without cause, but it
will be the cause of your death. I shall put an Ire Lind touch
on you. If I can only say I have shot George Walker. thee
I die content, you villain !" There was no signature to
the letter. The defence was that the prisoner had given way
to intemperate habite, and had probably 'written the letter
whilst in a state of excitement brought on by into:notice.
He was committed for trial, hail being refused.

MARYPORT AND CARLISLE.

The directors have issued their half-yearly report.
After giving tablea of receipts and expenditure for the half-
year ended June 30, 1862, as compared with the half-year
ended June 30, 1861, the directors state as follows : ' By
the half-yearly statement of accounts to the 30th June,
1862, it appears that the receipts have amounted to 28,166/.
Is. 2d. ; and the expenditure, including rates and taxes, to
11,3691. 11,. 6d. The whole outlay of the half year has been
charged against revenue. The engineer and locomotive super-
intendent continue to report favourably of the condition of
the rolling stock sod way and works. In common with other
lines the receipt. have suffered from the depressed state of
trade now prevailing throughout the country. It is
very satisfactory, however, that the passengers, goods,
and parcels' show, in each case, an increase. The decrease
in weight carried has enabled the °Moen to reduce the work-
ing expenses several hundred pounds- The balance for the
half-year, after carrying 1,5711. fe. Ild. to the credit of the
renewal and contingency account, is 12,2111. 8.- 9d., which
enables the directors to recommend a dividend on the ori-
ginal shares at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, and on the
preference shares according to their respective guarantees.
The directors have much satisfaction in reporting the com-
plete success of their proceedings in parliament during the
present session, the new branches bill having received the
royal assent. The directors who retire at the ensuing meet-
ing are Mr. Hartley, chairman, and Mr. W. Lawson, M.P, •
being eligible, they offer themselves for re-election. Mr.'
Richardson, auditor, also retires by rotation, and is re-eli-
gible." The engineer's report, the report oa the state of the
railway stock, and the auditors' report follow, as also full
statements of the financial position of the company,

ITALY.

In consequence of the agitation in Italy the
Patric states that the Austrians are strengthening
all the military posts on the frontiers of their Italian
territory. The line of Grazie, Montanan, Borgo-
forte, Suzzara, and Gonzsga is guarded by two bat-
talions of the 40th and 50th Regiments. The Hun-
garian garrisons of Ostiglia, Rovere, and Sermide
have been changed. Troops are being concentrated
at Rovigo, which is the base of the defensive line of
the Po. The works of the three forts that are being
built round the town are proceeding rapidly, and
will soon be completed. All the houses within the
cannon range of these forts have been pulled down.
A Palermo journal (the Compana della Gamin)
says that the King's proclamation has caused a
" painful emotion" in the island. This Garibaldian
organ initiate that, by virtue of the pact which
unites the Sicilian people to the monarchy, the
elect of the nation is bound not to ask for Rome,
but to take it." It concludes as follows :
What we want is Rome, and not French bondage. We
want Rome, and not brigands. We want Rome, and not
diplomatic notes. We want Rome, and not lies. We will
have Rome or death.

The Paris Pattie pretends to be " able to affirm"
that Baron Ricasoli's friends know nothing of a
letter said to have been written by him, in
which he takes part with Garibaldi. But it is
quite clear that the Pattie knows nothing on the
subject, and merely echoes, without acknowledging
its authority, a hesitating denial given by the Turin
Gazette, and which does not command implicit
belief at Turin. The following version of Baron
Ricasoli's declaration, which differs somewhat from
those published in other quarters, is given by the
Lombardo :

The monarchy is in danger. Its only chance of salvation
is now to follow that movement of Garibaldi which it had
not the sagacity to initiate. For my own part I declare,
on the part of myself and my political friends, that we are
ready either to follow or to lead this agitation, which is the
offspriag of neceeeity—the necessity for or to have Rome.
Whether the above letter be authentic or not,
the immense sensation it ham created in Italy
augurs ill for the stability of the Ratazzi cabinet.

INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.

The rain had a very depressing effect on the for-
tunes of the Exhibition yesterday, the attendance
not much exceeding 40,000 at three o'clock. The
schools and public establishments, however, con-
tinue to muster strong, and the railways to send up
their contingents from the country. The schools

of excursionist, by the Great Western Railway yes-
terday was 2,500.
The Council of the Society of Arts have decided
to invite the opinion of the jurors, the commis-
sioners for the colonies and for foreign countries,
and the exhibitors at the International Exhibition
on the question of awards of merit in connexion
with international exhibitions. A series of ques-
tions on this subject has been drawn up, a copy of
which will be furnished to any exhibitor on appli-
cation by letter to the secretary of the Society of
Arts, Adelphi, London.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON AND 800TH WESTERN.

After the close of the report in yesterday's
Emma
The 011111MA7 moved a resolution, declaring the divi-
dend at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum, payable on and
after the 26th inst.
The motion was seconded by Mr. Daiw, and carried.
Resolutions were afterwards proposed and passed for the
disposal of the further amount of share capital authorised
to be crested by the London and South Western Railway
(Additional Powers) Act, 1862, and for the convenion of
the debenture debt of the company into debenture stock to
the amount of 623,6531., making, with the company's
present debenture stook of 316,4471., the sum of 1,000,0001.,
to bear a fixed guaranteed dividend at the rate of 4 per
cent. per annum, payable half-yearly.
Drafts of leases of the Exeter and Crediton, North Devon
and Bideford Extemion Railways to the South Western
Company, were submitted and sanctioned, as was also an
arrangement for the ultimate amalgamation of the two last-
mentioned undertakings with the South Western Com-
pany.
A resolution confirming the purchase of the Wimbledon
and Dorking Railway was also proposed and agreed to.
A vote of thanks was then, upon the motion of Mr.
Miceru., accorded to the chairman, and the meeting
separated.

NEW SOUTH WESTERN STEAM PACKET

COMPANY.

Yesterday the half-yearly meeting of the share-
holders in this company was held at the Waterloo Station,
Mr. DILLIVI in the clam

The Cease I.N, in opening the proceedings, explained
that the only object of the meeting was the declaration of
the usual dividend at the rate of 5 per oent. per annum,
which be would now propose for adoption.
Mr. Hrrcenis seconded the motion.

Mr. LIIIIVELZ could not understand why, receiving 5 per
cent, per annum, they should enter into a new agreement
with the South Western Company, under which they were
to receive only 4 per cent, per annum. He bad originally,
fourteen years ago, opposed connecting the Steam Packet
Company with the South Western Railway Company, but
the South Western Railway Company then pledged itself
to pay them 5 per cent, per annum so long es they retained
the company's boats. (No, no.) They were bound by the
terms of their agreement, if they did not like to continue
to pay 5 per cent., to return the company its ships, but that
they could not do. The reduction which would, under the
bill of last session, take place in their income, was Naive,
lent to 20 per cent., and that deduction from their
income was a matter of serious importance to the share-
holders, especially to many ladies, all whose property
was invested in the company, and on which they were con-
sequently dependent for an income. He complained that
the stock was unknown on the Stock Exchange ; and there-
fore when, in consequence of the death of a proprietor, his
shares found their way into the market, they were picked
up at a low price by the directors, who were therefore in a
far better position than the ordinary shareholders when they
proposed to exchange the 5 per cent. for the 4 per cent.

The CHAIRMAN repeated that the only object of the meet-
ing was to declare a dividend. The new arrangement with
the South Western Company was an accomplished fact, so
that the present was not the time to discuss its
Mr. MORTIMER told Mr. Lefevre that, so far from his
regarding the stock as depreciated in value by the new
arrangement, he was willing to take at par all that gentle-
man held.

The motion woe then agreed to, and the proceedings
closed in the usual manner.

further, that this sum corresponds very nearly
with the amount of the deficiency in the year's

dulness experienced in our export trade during
the past year was almost wholly occasioned by the

of the business of Mr. Cleaman, a merchant is the City,

of her own circle, regularly "kept company" with

Wes% who described himself as an engineer,

and held out the confident hope that be would
in a short time make ber his wife. She fully be.
lieved him, and saved her earnings to contribute
what she could in the way of furniture to their
little establishment. Under these promises and

profession be succeeded in seducing the poor girl
about two months before her death. Subsequently
Wass's conduct appears to have confirmed a sus-
picion already entertained by her sister that he was
a married man, and she began to fear she might
have been fatally deceived. About a fortnight

before her death she told her sister if this were so
she would be revenged, and talked vaguely several
times about committing suicide. Last Monday
week, the last day of her life, it appears that
she received • short onto signed "W." appointing
a meeting for eight o'clock in the evening. She
left home at that hour, excusing herself from
doing an errand for her brother on the ground of
being already late, and was never afterwards seen
alive. The only trace we have of the poor girl after
she left home is six hours later, and that is one of
the most tragical and affecting kind. At two o'clock
in the morning a gardener living near the canal
heard "a about or loud exclamation, followed by a
" piercing scream." The dogs of the neighbour-

hood began barking furiously,; and he went out to
"bee what the matter WWI, but in the darkness
could distinguish nothing. The body of the poor
girl was found in the water near the spot five
hours afterwards.
Masse circumstances are sufficiently mysterious.

what happened to the poor girl during that long
interval of six hours from the time of her leaving
home to her fearful death we cannot tell, and
no light was thrown on the fatal mystery at the
inquest. But it is not for the purpose of fixing
attention to the suspicious circumstances connected
with her death that we bring this poor girl's awe

under the notice of our readers. It is the course
of heartless deceit and deliberate villany which
produced this fatal issue that we are anxious to
drag into open light, the more so because, though
one of peculiar aggravation, it is far from being an
isolated came. Several other cues of the muse

MR W. Z. FORSTER, ALP., AT BRADFORD.

Mr. Forster, M.P., Iran among the speakers at the
annual meeting of the Bradford Liberal Registration Society,
on Thursday evening. He said the circumstances of Lame
shire would probably occupy the attention of parliament
on their again meeting. If this question should come before
parliament, he thought he should not be departing from
what he coneidered to be the feeling of this constituency
if he took these two principles for his &damn :—First, that
whatever distress might arise in any district el this country
in consequence of the withholding of cotton, we moat
do all in our power not to interfere in any way in
the American quarrel Secondly, that if it appaim
neceniary those who were in distress should be as.
sisted--and he was sure that the exemplary patience
with which those who were placed in this unfortunate
position had borne their sufferinp entitled them to the
qmpathi of_ the nation—(applause)—he did not believe
if be rends support to such a measure. Whether it
would be brought forward or not, he did not know. The
ggeentlemen in the House of Commons connected with
Lancashire had a high-spirited feeling which inclined them
to object to come to the nation for asiustance, and appeared
determined themselves, if possible, to cope with this_ great
distress to the end of it. (Hear, hear.) They could not
forget that the nation gave assistance to the Irish people
when • great calamity befell them ; and he was mare that
if they were called upon to give assistanoe to our own
fellow-countrymen, who had borne their sufferings with
=oh extraordinary patience, the nation would gladly
afford it. (Hen, hear.) The very fact that they had no
borne these sufferings, must create the deepest interest
in their behalf. They knew the cause of their calamity,
and wore disposed to endure it patiently, till relief came
by the termination of this terrible war. Mr. Fonder next
observed that the prospect was favourable, especially in
the present state of the continent, for the consideration
of the question whether we could not reduce our large
national expenditure. He thought it desirable that we
should seek to control and check that expenditure ; at the
same time taking care, while saving money, we did not
leave the country without complete protection. Mr.
Bonier observed that it was the opinion of many that
then would be no election this year, while some thought
there would be one next year, bat both might be mistaken.
He thought, however, there might be one next year, and
that they ought to take such en interest in the Registration
Society, that they would be in a position to take the Lisa

LONDON, SATURDAY, APRIL 26.

Tar Carower's Inquest held yesterday on the
body of MAROARIT ELIZABETH HALLIDAY, a young
woman found in the Regent's Canal upwards of a
week ago, furnishes another and profoundly touch-
ing example of that moat heartless 'pixies of vil-
lany which is often more fatal to its victim than
the worst form of violence. It is the story of a
girl in comparatively humble life, but respectable,
industrious, and of blameless character, regularly
courted for nine months, and eventually ruined
under a solemn promise of marriage, by a man
who not only had a wife, but had actually been
married only three months before he commenced
this deliberate, revolting, and fatal attack on the
virtue of an honest girl and the peace of
a respectable household. The use is, in-
deed, not altogether free from suspicions
of a darker kind, the mysterious circumstances
connected with the death of the poor girl not
having been cleared up at the inquest ; but the
main outlines of her sad story are sufficiently
clear and may soon be told. She lived with her
parents and sisters in Cleveland-street, Mile-end-
road, was employed during the day as a bugle-
trimmer, and appears to have been not only regular
and industrious at her work, but careful of her
Gaming., as she bad bought some furniture in
anticipation of her marriage with the man Wses,
wbo so cruelly wronged, outraged, and deceived
her. Her sister describes her ea having been " a
4' very correct, moral girl ;" and, apart from the
fetal step which led to her &Mb, there is nothing

THE BROMPTON CEMETERY.

Mr. H. BERKELEY asked the Secretary of State for the
Home Department, government having purchased the
Brampton Cemetery in the year 1850, on the strength of a
decided opinion expressed in a report of the Board of Health
that it was one of those which, for sanitary purposes, ought
to be closed, why had government kept that cemetery open
when twelve yeses had added to the density of the popu-
lation and the consequent danger.
Sir G. GREY said the cemetery was purchased not with
the view which his hon. friend had assumed. It was pur-
chased by the then Board of Health, in order that it might
be made available as a substitute for certain churchyards,
which it was oonsiderered desirable, on sanitary grounds, to
close. From the reports of Dr. Sutherland and Sir H.
Holland it appeared that for a considerable number of years
burials had taken place in the Brompton Cemetery with
perfect safety, and that there was no apprehension of any
danger arising from the continuance of the practice.
