On Wednesday lan we submitted to our readers
some specimens of the peculiar claims which Mr.
HUDSON has at the confidence of shareholders and
the railway world in general. They related to his
dalicp with the York, Neweastk, and Berwick
Railway Company. It most not, however, be
imagined, that his treatment of that body was an
exceptional ease. Mr. HUDSON appears to have
treated all the railway companies who plaited them-
selves under his guardianship with acruptilone impar-
tiality. Doke and Tyrian received the same mes-
sere of justice at his hands.
It may probably be in the recollection et the rail-
way world that in the year 1846 the Great North of
Ragland line was punned, at Mr. HUDBON'S in-
stance, by the Newcastle and Darlisiten Railway, at
a most exorbitant pries—at a prise, Indeed, which

The 6ton Exchange of Leedom, and indeed the
whole railway world, stood aghast at this statement,
and it was immediately asked—" who were the sell•
ere?—why had such extravagant prices been paid r
At the half-yearly meeting which ensued, Mr. HUD-
sox, after some evasions and indirect threats of Noir I
main, confessed that he, the chairman of the company ,
had sold 3,790 shares to it (2,800 of them without
the intervention of a broker) at a rate considerably
above the market price. He accompanied this admis-
sion by a promise to retina any mew he might have
received, which was scouted, and a committee of in-
vestigation appointed.
It appeared from the evident* tainted by that
committee that : On the 26:11 of October, 1846, after
the close of a general meeting of proprietors, the
directors resolved that the shares of the Great North
of England Railway goad be bought by the York,
Newcastle, and Berwick Rahway Company, and that
Mr. HUDSON alone should have the management of
the purchases. No record of this resolution was en-
tered on the minutes of the directors' proceedings.
Mr. HUDSON had early in the =oath of October
begot to purchase the various classes of Cheat North
of England railway shares on his own account ; and
on the 27th of October (the day after the directors
came to the resolution mentioned above) Mr. HUD-
Sox sold the company his shares to the value of
131,867 k 9s. 3d. Oa the game 27th of October
Mr. HUDSON reamed, in part payment tor these
shares, a check on the York Union Banking Com-
pany for 61,00 W. At that time ho egad not
have paid more than about 26,0001. on amount of
the purchase of the shares, so that they were to a con-
siderable extent paid for in the first instance with the
money he received from the company. The priors at
which he patronised the shares, and the prices for
which he sold theinorill appear from the following

Somarurso must be done, and that speedily' to
reform tbe gram evils in the pollee system of this
eity—evile that, if not corrected, will end by render-
ing the polies es a body, not call abhorred by the
lower maks, bat even dreaded and comidered
salaam, by oar middle climes. New are more
ready than ourselves to admit the vveerryy great benefits
that have anmued from the iostigtloa of what is
still called the new pollee. The animated eseurity
of our sheets sad abodes, the almost total absence
of riot and disorder, and the infrequency of great
erimea—however the criminal ream may be swelled
by small and Poodle miedemsassans all these
attest the great advantages of a compact and dis-
ciplined body of police.
Bat in acknowledging all this, it is impowlie for
any eitisen to walk the streets, especially at sight,
without perceiving that the public and the risers
by are completely at the many of individual
policemen, who from whim or caprice may com-
mit the greenest acts of tyranny and injustice
with complete impunity. Their functioas may no
doubt be difficult. To keep peace and order in cer-
tain praline, it may be necessary to be rough ; but
we see in the OM of Sergeant Boomer. to what re-
sults such roughness leads. An inoffensive and in-
dustrious artisan of good character, nowise intoxi-
cated, is arrested in the street fir some supposed
misdemeanour, and so bridged, beaten, and maltreated
by the police,thst the man takes to abed of sickness and
dies. Cases quite as bad in the circumstances, though
not in the results, are of daily occurrence, yet when
brought before the. magistrates, there one and all take
pert with the pekoe, against whom the pabllo have
thus no means of redeems or justice, unless indeed a
man is killed, and then and there a ooroner's jury, as
in the case of GEARY, makes a serious matter of it,
and brings in a verdict of manalsoghter.
The most disgusting part of the system is, how-
ever, the relations that exist between the police and
the women of the town. Par these unfortunate beings
there is, of Doane, no law or consideration. No one
likes to take up their wrongs. No one has the courage
to exandae them, or become the advocate of such
clients The law fears to prohibit, yet dust not re-
cognise, their exists's& And the fact is, that this
horde of human beings are left completely at the
mercy and arbitrage of die poliee,who can molest,arreet,
imprison them, and get them flned by the magistrates
at pleasure. It is utterly importable for men, in
the rank of policemen, not in many instances to
grossly above such powers. It is probable that the
great majority of the police do not do so. But the
reports of what has paned at the police offices and
before the magistrates daring the last month suffi-
ciently evince the necessity of inquiry and of cor-
rection.

The great evil lies in the public—in the wronged in-
dividual of the publio—having no impartial tribunal to
apply to for redrew. The magistrates evidently =-
eider themselves mere policefudges, and look epos the
police force aspen of their establishment. They ooesider
d a principle of loyalty and order to sustain the
even in its errors doe as the clerical tribunals of Rome
adhere to their clergy through thick and thin. It is
these lower clergy who at Rome perform many of the
fanatics' of the polio*, and the oonaequeare le not
