EMIGRATION STATISTICS.
Every city, town, village, and hamlet in the kingdom now
participates in an enterprising spirit of Colonial Emigration. The
accounts from Australia and other places continue to buoy up the
ardent hopes of industrious adv.nturers : rich soil, healthy climates.
cheap land, and valuable mines, are unquestionably advantages of
the most important character. To articularise how many have al-
ready crossed the greet ocean would be useless; every day the tide
flows from all parts, and preparations are making by immense num-
bers. Very few Emigrants are acquainted with the articles most
necessary for their paisage, or know what clothing and utensils will
be most uscul for them in far distant countries.
The incredible amount of Business E. MOSES & SON have
dispatched in the Outfitting Department, and the many years ex-
perience they have had in preparing articles for Emigrants to every
part of the world, has given them the entire pre-eminence In the
Outfitting Branch, all Emigrants should apply to E. MOSES & SON
for their Outfits—their superiority is universally admitted—their
suitability for any country is guaranteed—and their prices are
lower than at any other House in the World. The Emigrant like-
wise saves much valuable time by selecting his Outfit at E. MOSES
& SON'S, their extensive trade in that line inducing them to keep a
del artment in their Oigantic Establishment expressly devoted to
the arrangement of Outfits for any part of the Universe.
oUTFITS can be forwarded t, any part of the Kingdom on re-
ceipt of a remittance. E. Moms and SON supply them for 3/. 155.,

LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN
RA.ILWA Y.
A special general meeting of the shareholders of the
above company was held on Friday, at the Bustou-
square termisus, " for the purpose (according to the
printed circular) of considering and approving, or other-
wise, of certain Bills now before Parliaraent, intituled
respectively--

A Bill' a railway from Worcester to
11:reford,w for m
with certain branches therefrom•, for making
arrangements with the Herefordshire' and Gloucester-
shire Canal Company, and with the Midland and Lon-
don and North-Westerir Railway

Companies, and for

" A Bill to enable the London and North-Western
Railway a Companyms
h ireßailway make
with the Oxford, Worcester,
Bueltin gh
and Wolverhampton Railway, and to confirm certain
other powers with respect to the last-mentioned railway,
to authorise the conversion of the debenture debt of the
London. and -North-Wastern Railway Company into
Three-and-Hall per Centum Stock; and for other
purposes."
" A Bill for enabling the Manchester, Buxton, Mat-
-1 ok, and Midland Junction Railway Company to sell,
or lease, their undertakibg to the London and North-
Western and the Midland Railway Companies."
Mr. G. C. GLYN, M.P., was in the chair. He was
warmly cheered by the shareholders as he entered the
room. The advertisement by which the meeting bad
been convened having been read by the secretary, Mr.
C. E. Stewart,
The CHAIRMAN said the shareholders were aware that
the present meeting had been convened, in compliance
with the standing orders of the House of Lords, for the
purpose of submitting to their (the shareholders') con-
sideration and sanction any Bill which might be passing
through that [tense, and in which their interest might
be directly or indirectly concerned. This fact
the whole of the Bills about to be submitted, were, as to
any particular powers proposed to be conferred by them,
permissive bills, and the directors were not about to
take any vote from the proprietors for any agreement
to bind the company. What they asked the share-
holders to do' was to sanction the insertion in these
bills of clauses 'that - would empower the company
to deal with the proprieters of the companies to which
they (the bills) referred, for leasing or entering into
any other agreement. It was therefore unnecessary for
him to enter into the merits of . the matters in question.
The first bill to which he would call their attention
was that for making a railway from Worcester to Here-
ford, with certain branches therefrom, for making ar-
rangements with the Flerefordshire and Gloucester
Canal Company, and with the Midland and North-
Western Railway Companies, and for other purposes.
This was a short link of railway, for which they had
had a very serious contest in Parliament. It was the
connecting link to which allusion was made in the re-
port of the directors recently; laid before . the share-
holders, and which would bring the London and North-
Western Company and the whole of the narrow gauge
interests into connexion with the mineral districts of
South Walei. He was happy to state that on the pre-
vious day the Bill passed through the Committee of the
HoMe of Commons, and after having undergone much
more serious opposition than they bad anticipated. And
here ho might observe, that they found their old oppo-
nents, the Great Western Company, openly avowing in
every direction, and without any reserve, that they were
the opponents of the Bill. At a meeting held at Glou-
cester, in the course of the last month—ho alluded to
the meeting of the Gloucester and Berkeley Canal
Company—Mr. Potter, ono of the directors of the Gres'

Westerni board, stated most unreservedly that tho op-
position of the Dean and Chapter of Gloucester, and of
Mr. Miles and others, was purely and entirely a Great
Western opposition.—(liear, hear.) The London and
North- Western Company had, however, triumphantly,
up to the present moment defeated that opposition.—
(Cheers.) With respect to the advantages to be derived
from the construction of
the Worcester and Hereford
line, he need hardly trouble the meeting with any obser-
vations, as the directors, as he had stated,
simply asked
the shareholders for powers to insert clauses in the Bill
to enable them to deal with the proprietors of the line
for leasing or entering into-any
other engagement; but
he might at the same time observe it Inuit be evident,
from the strenueus opposition of the Great Western, that
the traffic to be secured by the projected line was valu-
able.—(Hear, bear.) 'The evidence before the Com-
mittee , showed that the undertaking itself—and he
thought that the proprietors-faith° London and North-
Western Company had not, generally,. been inclined to
take in the project that interest which be thought they
might, if they wished a fair investment, safely do—he
said the evidence on the Bill proved that there was
scarcely a- line in any part of England more required, or
upon which the traffic to be secured was more likely to
afford a certain and good return than this little link of
railway bet Ween Worcestei and Hereford. As he had
stated to the meeting, it would form a connexion be-
tween the mineral districts of South Wales and the
middle and
centre
of
England- Ha was almost afraid to
deal with the economy, with which the line would be, con-
structed. As an old, railway director he woe, he re-
peated, not desirous of stating this, as it would present
a striking contrast with the cost at which the London
and North-Western works had been carried out. He
would not give the figures, but merely state that the
correctness of the estimates had been tested by a per-
severing and -vigilant opposition, and that the cost came
out at a very lOw stern. The traffic over the lino would
be enormous, and the advantage to the district through
which the lino was to pass must be very great. It would
reduce the rates in 1.1. n extraordinary degree in the part
of Wales with which it would communicate; and, in
fact. the measure preaented,one
of
the most legitimate
traffic cases he had ever teen, and offered the fairest
return of any new undertaking that had come within his
knowledge forsome time. At the seine time it was estimated
by Mr. M'Conuell, their locot"tive superintendent, that
the construction of the projected line would save the
London and North-Western Company r.,
in the article of
coke, 25,000/. per annum,—(llerte, hear.) He then
moved that the Bill be sanctioned.
The motion having been seconded, was carried.
The C ITA_i
IMAN said the next Bill was for the conver-
sion of the debenture debt of the London and North-
Western Company into three-and-a half per cent. stock.
They liii&had 'occasion, since the original Bill which
embodied this matter was brought in, to divide the two
objects, in consequence of the opposition which one
portion of' the metabure had .met with,
e --e, and the present
a SUu3 •

in the shape of substantial Bill by itself.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The grand file of " the presentation of the Eagles"
and the review passed off with great eclat yesteday,
and without the occurrence of any untoward inci-
dent. The reception of Louis Neper.Eort was most
favourable. The weather was delightful—cloudless,
with a refreshing breeze.
The PRINCE PRESIDENT of the Republic left the
Tuileries at a quarter to twelve o'clock, attended by
a--brilliant cortege, composed of the Marshals of
France, at the head of whom rode the ex-King
JEROME. The Marshals were followed by the Arab
chiefs, who attracted general notice from the richness
of their costume. The PRESIDENT arrived at the
Chiiinpa de Mitrirat twenty thiuntes ptiit two';
o'clock. He galloped in' front of the troops, who
were drawn up in line, and were in number more
than 60,000 men. He then distributed the eagles to
the colonels, and subsequently addressed them in a
short speech, in which he told them " that those
eagles were not to be regarded as a menace to foreign
Powers."

The Archbishop next celebrated mass, and blessed
the colours, which were returned to the colonels.
The troops defiled before the PRESIDENT, and the
entire ceremony was concluded by three o'clock.
The PRESIDENT returned to the Elysee at a quarter
past three o'clock. He was received on his passage to
the Champs de Mars and on his return by the im-
mense population congregated on the quays with
every mark of respect. • •
The infantry cried in general "Vise Napoleon !"
The heavy cavalry shouted vociferously " Vive
l'Empereur !"
The Union says:—" We are assured that Generals
SAINT ARNAUD, Minister of War, MAGNAN, Com-
mander-in-Chief of the Army of Paris, BARAGUAT
D'HILLIERS, and DE CASTELLANE, Commander-in-
Chief of the Army of 'Lyons, are to be promoted to
the dignity of Marshals of France."
General CARNE died yesterday in Paris. His
funeral ceremony is to take place to-morrow, at twelve
o'clock, in the church of Saint Andre., Cittisd'Antin.
The funeral of Marshal AIARMONT, Duke of Ra-
guse, took place on Thursday, at Chattillon-sur-
Seine. The body arrived only on Monday evening,
and lay in state for two days iu a chapelle-ardente.
At ten o'clock the procession, comprising the civil
and military authorities, and crowds of people from
the adjacent country, as well as detachments of
troops from the surrounding garrisons, formed in
line to do honour to the deceased. Among the per-
sons present were the Commandant de Pranconniere,
aide-decamp to the Minister of War and his repre-
sentative ; Generals Delarue, Kowierowski, Testot-
Ferry, formerly aides-decamp to the Duke of Ra-
gusa; M. Grimaux de Caux, a Member of the Insti-
tute; M. Barbier, maitre-d'hdte/ of the Marshal, and.
Countess de Daturemow, to whom he bequeathed
his memoirs. The deceased received all the honours
usually paid to a Marshal of France. M one o'clock
the" cortege reached the cemetery, and when his
body was deposited in the ground the drums beat
Aux Champs, the artillery fired salutes, and the in-
fantry presented arms—the last of the Marsh els of
the Empire held his last review. The number of
strangers, whotn the ceremony had attracted to Chas
tilloe, was estimated at between 7,000 and 8,001
M. DurLEtx, Sous-Intemitnt Militairc, died, .two
days ego, at o:.le.ins, aged 63. lie was Minister el
War under King JEROME, when the latter was King
of Westphalia; in 1810 he refused the post cf
Governor of the French prsessiona and under
the B.r,,storation was Clatf-de-I);vision in the Ministry
of War. This latter post he rts!gned, in 1830, and
auhqequently lived in retirement.
The PRINCE PRESID2NT of the 112 public has just
accorded pensions for lite to sixteen old soldiers ot
the republic and the empire residin iu the
department of the Lot et Garonne. Tee Pritsce
has also granted 6,000 f. for terminating the repairs in
the church of St. Menoux, one of the fines;: monuments
iu the, department of the Allier.
The Journel des Debttts says,—" We learn that
the warning givea three days ago to the Public was
based on the incomplete manner in which that journal
reproduced the report of the sitting of the Legislative
Body of the 3d May."
The force on the ground (says the Times corre
spowlent) is variously estimated, and some place it
at 80,000, others still more. There were 48 batta-
lions of the line, 56 _squedrone of cavalry, and 60
guns. This mess, however, does not include the
gendarmerie, mounted or on foot, the Republican
Guard, the Chasseurs de Vincennes, the deputations
from the general army, the Invalids!, &c.
After the PIIINCE PRESIDENT had presented the
regimental eagles the commencement of the religious
ceremony was announced by cannon at one o'clock.
The Metropolitan Chapter, the Honorary Canon of
the Paris Church, in full canonical ces'enne, the
Cures and the Vicars in surplices and red stoles, the
members of the diocesan seminaries in seutane, had
already assembled at 11 o'clock in the Church of St.
Peter, of the Gros Caillou, and moved in precession at
a quarter-past 11, with the Cross of the Chapter car-
ried before them, and chanting the hymn Vali
Creator, to the Chapel of the Champ de litre, and
took their places according to their rank. When the
guns gave the signal, the Archbishop, arrayed in full
canonicals, commenced the Mass of the Holy Ghost.
At the moment of the elevation, another salute was
fired ; the drums bent to arms; the trumpetst sounded, o_e
the advance ; 60,000 men presented arm,: e n

clergy responded Amen ,
Omnipotens sempiternus Deus," the Prelate sprinkled
the flags with holy water and blessed them ; and tnen
took his seat on a throne, and assumed the mitre. The
standard-bearers advanced separately, knelt on the
ground, each with the Eagle in his hand, and the
Archbishop spoke the following prayer :
" Accipite vexilla eeelesti benedictions sanctificata,
eintque populi christiaui terribilia; et det vobis
Dominus gratiam, ut, ad ipsius non:len et honorem, cum
illo becition cuneos potentor penetrotis iucolumes et
secure
When the prayer was ended the Prelate gave for
the whole army the kiss of peace, with the words
Pax•tibi ; and the foremost standard-bearer, rising
from the ground, pressed to his lips the Pontificial
ring and then resumed his place. One hundred
salutes from the cannon of the bridge of Jena amen,
panied this blessing of the Eagles. The Prelate then—
stood erect, arrayed in mitre and in cope, anti hold-
ing the crosier, raised his hand aloft, and gave an uni-
versal blessing to the army and the people, and
another salute announced that the religious ceremony
was over.
The Colonels to whom the standards were delivered
by the Archbishop descended, and defiled round the
chapel. They then proceeded to their respective
regiments, delivered the Eagles to the ensigns,
and had them recognised by the corps in the usual
manner.

The officers holding the eagles then left their place.,
and ascending once more the. steps of the centre
tribune, heard the following address from the Par-
