NEW RAILWAY BILL,.—The notice, of inyenneu
i!Pplication to parliament for railway bills in the session of
for
WO as compered with In for 1867, 450 for 1886,
14463 and 360 for 1864. Considering the protracted
tired% of the panic of May, 1866, and the continued want
of confidence in railway enterprise and railway securities
tenerally, it see= surprising that so many notices for the
acorporation of new companies should have been given to
tarry out what might he considered 'my doubtful pro-
; and as powers are sought to lease or sell some of
them to other companies, the object appears speculative
tad intended for private advantage. About 50 per cent.
Of the intended bills are for the extension of the time
granted in 1464, 18e.5, and 1866, for the purchase of lands
sad completion of works ; including also the abandonment
of several branch and extemdon lines, acts for which were
obtained two years ago by great exertions and at enormous
expense. With the exception of notion of application for
the extension of time to purchase lands and complete
works, and to abandon useless and fighting lines, those for
the actual recuirernents of established companies are very
few.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

(THIS DAY.)
We have a very short supply of beasts, and conse-
quently priors have advanced fully 2d. per 81bs. ; trade,
however, is dull for middling qualities. There are not quite
so many sheep as on Monday last, bat quite sufficient
for the demand • indeed a clearanoe cannot be effected.
Prices are no hefer. We have but few calves, and prices
bare advanced. Our foreign supply consists of 710
beasts, 5,870 sheep and 75 calves. From Scotland 110
beasts, Ireland:WO:and 2,800 from the Northern and Mid-
land counties.

BOROUGH HOP MARKET.—(THIS DAY.)
Messrs Patteaden and Smith report the trade con-
tinues without alteration, there being little or nothing
doing, and quotations are merely nominal.

DEATH OF SIR ROUNDELL PALMER'S MOTHER.—
It was announced this day at the Judicial Committee of
the Privy Council, that the mother of Sir Roundell
Palmer expired last night during the storm, near
Regent's-park. Sir Roundell Palmer was absent from the
committee.

SACRrLEQZ.—The new Church of St. Clement's,
Nottinthill, was broken into late on Saturday night. The
thieves succeeded in carrying off the communion cloths,
all the robes, certain', and other effects. They were,
however. diasppointerl in what was probably their object—
the finding the church plate, which, is always kept else-
where. St. Clement's is the church of the district in
which St. Andrew's Iron Church was destroyed by En
some few months since.

QUEENSTOWN, DEe. 2.—The National Steamship
Company's steamer Helvetia, from New York, arrived here
at 9 o'clock this morning. She landed passengers, and
proceeded for LiverpooL All well.
POST NUPTIAL IMPEDIMENTS TO MATRIMONY.—
A girl need not give up all her amusements because she has
captured a husband ; but the young married woman who is
to be seen, night after night, racing down a ball-room with
whiskered pandours and fierce hussars must find difficulty
in attending to her household duties in the morning. Ten
to one the husband breakfasts by himself, or in company
with the newspaper only ; not a bad substitute, it may be,
for a wife who is not more than half awake, and cress
from weariness and want of sleep. There is no reason why
the married sister should dress more dowdily than the un-
married ; but the hideously extravagant fashions of dress
which prevail in good society are too often caricatured and
burlesqued by the young English wife. The matron DOW-
a-days quite eclipses the maiden. She flirts more indus-
triously ; she waltzes more violently ; she dresses more
outrageously. " Hang it !" said 1)—, the other day,
speaking of a well-known beauty, who bas not yet ceased
to reign, "she knows as much slang as a cabman, she
thinks as much as a fish, only it's enrages, she gambles
like Fox and Sheridan together, she wears a dress which
the French police would exclude from the AM,* "Wahine ;
and it's for a jade like this that you ask me to give up my
crust of bread and liberty—my shilling whist and my pipe.
Not if I know it," D— is a cynical philosopher ; but I
suspect that in some respects his sketch is not much over-
drawn. —Fraser's Magazine for December,
