CHILI.

The Panama Star contains an amount of the
arrival of a French brig, the Marie Louise, froth
Callao, whence she sailed on the 20th September.
I The steamer Chili had just arrived in that harbour
from Valparaiso, bringing the important but unplea.
I sant information that a revolution had broken out in
Chili, and that many of the troops had declared in
!favour of General Santa Cruz Mr president, that
Coquimbo and other cities were in pp,sessiou of the
new party, and that everything throughout the ro.
public was in a disorganised state. The Star say
••Wo had begun to look upon Chili as a rmxM;
southern republic, possessing more stability than any
of her neighbours--of more enlarged ideas of foreign
trade and domestic industry—as a country unusually
forward in the development and encouragement of
internal resources and improvement ; and we had
fostered the hope and nourished it, that she was
very rapidly rising to a position that would soon re.
fleet honour and glory upon republican institutions
and principles throughout the world. But the petty
intrigues of political men scent to have as much in-
fluence there as elsewhere here in the south, among
the unthinking, indolent, and ignorant mass of tho
people, as well as among the no better educated, no
higher principled, and no more reliable, soldiery.

MARK-LANE.-THIS DAY.

Our market was but moderately supplied with English
Wheat by land carriage icimples from 12.-SiveL end Kent this
morning, and an effort was made to establish an advance of
ls. per quarter, which Was not successful, and the
tea le ultimately closed firm, at prices fully equal
to those of Monday MA. Choice qualities of
Dantatic and tine red Baltic Wheat were rather dearer; Meru
w .8 less demand than of late 1•or secondary and inferior qtmli.
tics of foreign (the value of Wheat and ltye haying
declined Is. tu 2s. per qr. at some ol• tke near continental
ports) ; prices, however, remain the sante as last quoted.
Flour meta steady sale at late rates.
In some instances an advance of Is. per qr. was obtained
for prime samples of malting Barley, and the secondary
sorts were quite as dear. Old figeigii, fur grinding pur-
pu,es, was iu fair request, amid sold on fully as good terms
as last week. __ _

Ihe advance of Gil. per qr. reported upon Oats at tho
close of List week, was ussintaimal this morning, with a
rather increased supply.

LOCAL SHARE MARKETS.

L2RIM3, Nov. I.—We have again had only a limited extent
of business to-day. The market is, on the whole, fiat, and
buyers are scarce, but nevertheless about former quotations
are maintained. The closing sales are as follows:—East
Lancashire', 14 ; Lancashire and York,hires ; Mid-
lands, 471 ; North Westerns, 131 dis.; South Eastern and
' Dovers, 181.

field Pref., 111; and West Ridings, 61 dis.
BIRMINGHAM, Nov. I.—There was scarcely anything,
done in this market to-day; speculation in railways appears

Staffords at 9, 81 die.

THE DEATH OF SIR EDWARD E. DISDROWE,
Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary at the
court of the Netherlands, took place at the Hague on the
29th ult.

As INDICATING THE IMPROVED CHARACTER OP
THE TIMES, it may be noticed that during the last quarter
only one application for relief was made to the Carmarthen
Union. A similar happy state of things has been obeerverl
in relation to the Narbeth Union.
10ItAYSIIIRE RAILWAY.—This line, we are glad
to say, has now been contracted for, and for a price consi-
derably under the engineer's estimate. The contractor are
Hews. Thomas Hutchings and Co., of London, who en-
gage to have the line complete ins every department, and
fit for being opened for public traffic, within seven months
from the commencement of the work. Several of the more
important olitials have already arrived, and are actively
engaged in preparing for cutting the first turf.—North
British Daly Mail.
WILTS, SOMERSET, AND WEYMOUTH RAILWAY.
—lt is stated that Messrs. Tredwell and \l' thee, the con-
tractors, are in negotiation with the Great Western Com-
pany for the completion of the unfinished portion of the
\Tilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Railway. It is stated that
the sum at which it iseatintated the works can be completed
is 1,800,0001., and that the company's guarantee on the
outlay would be 5 per cent.
London, England, 1851-07-01

NAPLES.

Our Naples correspondent, in his letter of June 24,
states that more than forty persons arc implicated in
a trial which has been instituted to bring to punish-
ment all who were concerned in the expulsion of the
jesuits. But no sooner were the proceedings opened
than the trials were suddenly stopped by order of
the government. The jesuits themselves suggested
this hushing up of the matter, which they felt would
only accumulate popular odium against their order.
The public prosecutor demanded a sentence of thirty-
two years of galleys against the prisoners. But
they have been suddenly acquitted although not
liberated. _ _

A list of pardons for political offences is published
in the official Gazette. These yruzie are, however,
far from restoring to liberty the objects of the royal
clemency, who, instead of suffering the extreme
doom of death, or galleys for life, have hereby their
sentences mitigated to 30 years of irons.
The King is about to return to Gaeta for the sum-
mer. A large body of troops have been concentrated
there for his protection and that of the Poie in case
his Holiness should mediatate a second flight thither.
The latter eventually is considered not impossible
from the increasing uneasiness with which Pio Nono
regards the French occupation, against which a
second flight would be the most expressive mode of
protesting.

7AN_WATER SUPPLY

Yesterday this committee ro-essembled at the nasal
hour, Sir Jame. Graham in the chair. The examination
of Sir Wm. Clay, M.P., was continued and occupied
the whole day. The honourable baronet, on being pressed
by the op ;counsel, declined saying how much com-
pensatiou he thought ought to be given to the existing
companies; he had the fullest reliance upon the justice
of parliament. In the course of the proceedings the
chairman stated that it was not the intention of the

committee to allow any -evidence to be called with
reference to any new sources of supply, as any plans of
that nature formed no portions of the bill before them.
This announcement excited considerable surprin amongst
the numeroal scientific and engineering notabilities with
whom the room was crowded. It being now 4 o'clock, the
committee adjourned to this day at 12 o'clock.

of dollars down for the purchase of the land, the
government undertaking to indemnify the pro-
prietors subsetrently. Monsignor Grassellini and
Count Zacchim, of Bologna have been appointed to
report upon the line, for reference to his holiness and
to the Council of State.

A fresh fray, the most important since the Passa-
tore's death, has taken place between Castel de
Britti and Clagnano, in the Bolognese territory, with
siz of the remaining outlaws of the Passatore's band.
The brigands defended themselves in a house for
sometime against a small military force, and then
made good their retreat to the mountains, leaving
one of their number dead, but carrying off another
who was wounded. The dead robber was recognised
as Felice Scheda, nicknamed Felicionc and Auguil-
lone, one of the most notorious of the Passatore's fol-
lowers, for whose head 500 dollars had been offered.
His body was conveyed to Bologna, to he exposed
for recognition. The rings he wore had not been
taken off his fingers. Among the articles left be-
hind in the house by the banditti in their precipi-
tate retreat was a double barrelled gun of fine work-
manship.
On the 21st the artillery of the Castle of St.
Angelo fired salvos in honour of the Pope's corona-
tion. In the evening the palaces and public buildings
were illuminated; but no lights appeared in the
windows of private dwellings. Cardinal Altieri gave
a splendid banquet on the occasion.

RAILWAYS.

THIS DAY.

Two o'CLocz.
The share market is decidedly good to-day, and
prices show an upward tendency, an advance having
more especially taken place in Midlands, Great
Westerns, South-Westerns, and South-Easterns.
This being " ticket-day," the settlement of the
account is in progress. The rates of contango rule
light, which is a very favourable feature ; indeed in
I many eases backwardation has been paid,—on Mid-
lands as much as 71.
A circular has just emanated from the Shrewsbury
and Chester Board of Directors, in vindication of
their refusal to call an extraordinary meeting for the
purpose of considering the proposed agreement with
the London and North Western company, a requisi-
tion to which effect has been addressed to the board
by a number of the shareholders.

This suit was inatitntCa;;; creditor of a Mr. Deoell,
deceased, for the purpose of having his estate administered
by the court. It was stated that Mr. Detrell had at ono
time been possessed of considerable property in the West
Indies, but, owing to the property having diminished in
value, his spirits had been affected, end his death took
place under very melancholy circumstances. 'She rat' now
came on upon further directions, and an order was made
under which the estates were to be sold, and the suit wound
up according to the report of the Master.
Mr. Bethel and Mr. Lewin, Mr. Stuart and Mr. Pren-

HOME CIRCIAT.—MmusToNE, JULY 29.

The commission for the county of Kent was opemd on
Monday. and Mr. Baron Alderson afterwards chargr l the
grand jury, and proceeded to dispose of some of the crimi-
nal cases. A rather ludicrous incident occurred durisr; the
trial of one of the prisoners. The learned baron MIA about
to direct the attention of the jury to a solemn dietum of
law, as laid down by Lord Hale when, troilism= =known
circumstance, his chair slipped back, and the leased judge
measured his length upon the floor of the bench, amidst a
heap of books and papers that were displaced by his fall.
His lordship, upon recovering himself, laughed very
heartily at what had occurred, and the court, as may be
imagined, was in a roar of laughter, which it required some
little effort finally to repress.
The cause list contains sixteen entries, three of which are
special jury cases. On the crown side there are 57 prisoners
.for trial, but the cases all appear to be, with ono or two
exceptions, of the ordinary character.

In this ease the deed upon which the plaintiff's title
rested had interlineations and erasures in parts not impor-
tant. And the objection was raised at the trial that the
deed was void unless some evidence was given to show that
the alterations were made before the execution of it.
The learned judge left it to the jury to say whether the
alterations were made before or after execution, and they
found that they were made before. A rule for a new trial
was moved for on the ground that the judge had no right to
leave this to the jury without some evidence was given upon
the subject. We think that if no evidence is given the al-
teration must be presumed to have been made before exe-
cution, for any alteration afterwards would be fraudulent,
and fraud is not to be presumed. We think, therefore,
' that the defendant had no reason to complain of the course
pursued by the judge, and that there should be no rule.
The court was occupied during the remainder of the day
in hearing cases of no public interest in the special paper.

GUILDIIALL.

Thomas Whiltchura, am omnibus proprietor, appeared
to an information charging him with using an omnibus
iaseritted with written particulars specifying that it was
constructed to carry a greater number of passengers than
the carriage was really constructed to huld under the
statute, which directed that every passenger should have a
comfortable and convenient seat, measuring 16 inches in a
straight line lengthwise.
The defendant pleaded guilty, but assured the magis-
trate that he was having his omnibuses altered as quickly
as ble.
Mr. Alderman Wilson said be bad given the proprietors
time to alter them, upon the understanding that it was not
to affect the threepenny fares. But they had thought pro-
per since the lot of May to abuse this confidence by raising
the fare to fourpenee. Therefore, in every case where the
fare had been raised, and inure passengers were carried
than the act permitted, he should invariably inflict the full
penalty of 101. upon the proprietor, 51. upon the driver, and
61. upon the conductor.
The defendant stated that Isis fare had originally been
sixpence, and he had reduced it to fourpence, but never to
threepence. The magistrates said in his case then a tine
of only one shilling would be inflicted, besides the costs.
' Ueorye Dale, another omnibus proprietor, was summoned
for carrying a thirteenth passenger, when the vehicle was
only large enough for twelve passengers.
The defendant said he had understood that till the altera-
tions could be made, he was at liberty to carry the thir-
teenth passenger.
Mr. Alderman Wilson said the decision that took place a
fortnight ago was to the effect that, until the omnibuses
were made as large as the act directed, no more than twelve
passengers would be allowed to be carried, whether there
was an end seat or not.

Ihe defendant pleaded ignorance of this decision, In
mitigation of the penalty, and also that his fare had not
been increased.

The magistrate said, in consideration of the fare being
ontir.ued ut the usual rate, they would only indict the
shilling tine. They begged, at the same time, to express
their opinion that the conduct of the omnibus proprietors
in raising their fares from 3d. to 411., had been a gross vio-
lation of the understanding upon which time was granted
them for the alterations; but they would take good care
that if so large a sum of money w.ui to he taken front the
public, the public should have the proper accommodation
required by the act. The rise in the fares had put an end
to the understanding between the omnibus proprietors and
the magistrates; therefore, any omnibus that demanded
the increased tare with the 13 seats inside, would be liable
to be summoned from that very• time. The proprietors bad
used every subterfuge to evade the requirements of the sta-
tute, and they might depend upon it, that the penalties
would be must rigidly enforced wherever the extra faro was
demanded.

The Railway Times furnishes a comparison of the
Easter traffic of the present year with the Easter.
holiday traffic of last year. which fell in the first
week of April. The result is very satisfactory, the
instances of increase being much more numerous and
important than those of decrease. The chief lines
included in the table of decrease are the Eastern
Counties, Great Western, and London and North
Western, but in no case is the falling off very re-
markable.

'there is very little doubt that the effects of the
Exhibition arc already perceptible in last week's
traffic returns on some of the railways; mid, as Hera-
paths' Journal observes, the result seems to be a
diminution of the goods, and an increase in the pas-
: senger traffic. A comparison of the corresponding
weeks of 1851 and 18.50 on tour of the metropolitan
lines, shows the following results—viz., on the Lon-
don and North Wtetern, an increase of 3761. in the
passengers, and 7051. in the goods; on the Brighton,
un increase of 2,7281. in the passengers, and a de-
crease of MU. in the goods; on the South Western,
an increase of 1,702/. in the passengers, and a de-
crease of 211. in the goods; on the Soth Eastern, an
increase of 3,039/. in the passengers, and 2331. in the
g°?.(111. . . . .

From an analysis of the railway traffic returns of
the United Kingdom for the last week (published by
.hatrual) it appears that the total receipts
on 6,284 miles amounted to 264,1481., being at the
rate of 42/. per mile per week. In the corresponding
week of last year the returns were 233,034/, on 5,688
miles, or at the rate of 41/. per mile per week. There
is thus un increase in the aggregate receipts of
13,1111., or 13.3 per cent., an increase in the
mileage of 5941 miles, or 111.47 per cent., and an in-
crease of 11. in the amount received per mile per
week. The kailway Times states the total traffic
returned since the lst of January at 3,921,178/.,
which, on 6,279 miles, amounts to 624'. 19s. 4 Id. per
mile. In the corresponding period of 1850, it was
returned at 3,551,815/. on 5,717 miles, which gives
an average of 021/. ss. Sid. per mile. This shows'
a balance of V. 13s. 11d. per mile in favour of the
present year.

FRANCE.

PARIS, SATURDAY BYRNING.
The French squadron at Brest, under the com-
mand of Admiral Parseval Deschenes, has received
orders to sail on the sth of May. Its destination is
variously reported. While some say that the ships
are to sail for the Mediterranean, others, who notethe
strong leaning of the government to the cause of
Count Thomar, whisper that the fleet will stick in
the mouths of the Douro and Tagus.
The multiplied indications of the existence of a
conspiracy for the purpose of procuring an immediate
inieute, have received, to-day, the accession of a fresh
document,which is called the eleventh bulletin. This
is the manifesto which was under press at the mo-
ment when the police discovered, yesterday, clandes- ,
tine printing apparatus, from which the first ineen-
diary manifesto issued. Three out of the four offen-
ders apprehended on the spot are assumed by the
government papers to be pardoned convicts, who
were implicated in the insurrection of June, 1848.
The eleventh bulletin, which has increased the pre-
vailing alarm, from its direct exhortation to rise on
the 4th of May, is us follows:

In the Spanish Chamber of Deputies on the Ist,
M. l'idal and others proposed that the government
should be required to make known its resources for
paying the state creditors in the event of the adop-
tion of the government bill for the regulation of the
debt. M. Fidel delivered a long speech in support
of the motion. The president of the council, in a
brief reply, stated that he calculated on the increase
of taxes and on reductions of expense, and he for-
mally announced that he did not intend to propose
new taxes. M. Fidel's proposition was rejected by
127 votes to i 6. In the sitting of the 2nd, the
Chamber, after disposing of some election matters,
resumed the debate on the bill. M. Conga Arguelles,
one of the committee, defended the measure. M.
Joe& Sanchez Ocana, director-general of the public
treasury, has been nominated under-secretary of the
department of Finance, and M, Rodulfo, Inspector
of Finance, has been appointed to replace him in the
directorship.
