RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

MIDLAND.

The adjourned special meeting of this company
was held yesterday at Derby, for the purpose of
considering several bills now before Parliament ;
Mr. W. H. Hutchinson presided.

The CHAIRMAN said the first bill he had to submit
was for conferring additional powers on the Midland
Railway Company for the construction of works and
otherwise in relation to their own undertaking and
the undertakings of other companies. It was an
omnibus bill, and contained a great variety of powers
to enable the Midland to construct small branches.
They proposed to abandon the Valley line and sub-
stitute for it the Staveley works line. There were
also powers to cross several streets at Burton-on-
Trent, and to purchase land in London, Bristol, and
other places.

Mr. Beale, the solicitor, read the heads of the bill,
which, after some discussion, was approved.

The CHAIRMAN said the next bill was to authorise
the Stonehouse and Nailsworth Railway Company to
extend their railway from Dudbridge to the Great
Western Railway at Stroud.

The bill was approved, and the meeting was ad-
journed to the 7th of June.

LONDON AND SOUTH-WESTERN.

A special general meeting of this company was
held yesterday at the Waterloo station, Captain
Mangles in the chair, to consider a bill now before
Parliament.

The CHAIRMAN said he was happy to tell the
meeting this would be the last occasion upon which
they would be troubled this session. The bill was
promoted by an independent company, and the rail-
way was intended to form a junction between the
Porton station of the London and South-Western
system and the Berks and Hants Railway at Pewsey
and Woodborough.

Mr. Burcham, the solicitor, having read the heads
of the bill,

The CHAIRMAN moved a formal resolution ap-
proving it, which was adopted unanimously.
In reply to Mr. llerapa.th, the CHAIRMAN said
the South-Western company had adopted the scheme,
believing that it would bring grist to the mill.
The proceedings closed with a vote of thanks to
the chairman.

MEMORIAL TO THE LATE ARCHBISHOP
WISEMAN.

The following appeared in our late Edition of yesterday
evening :

This afternoon a public meeting of Roman Catholic
noblemen and gentlemen was held at the Hanover-square
Rooms, for the purpose of providing a monument to the
memory of the late Cardinal Wiseman, titular Archbishop
of Westminster.

The large " Queen's Concert Room," in which the meet•
ing was held, was filled, most of the Roman Catholic no.
bility and gentry being present.

The Most Rev. Dr. Manning was called to the chair.

Amongst those present were Lord Petre, Viscount
Campden, Viscount Fielding, Dr. Gilbert, Sir C. Clifford,
Canon O'Neal, Mr. Pope Hennessy, M.P., Sir G. Bowyer,
M.P., Mr. Blake, M.P., Canon Morris, the Marchionesss of
Londonderry, Sir Pyors Mostyn, the Very Rev. Canon Rock,
Welby Pugin, Esq., &c., &c.
The Archbishop of WESTMINSTER elect said he thanked
the meeting for the kind manner in which:they hadaccepted
the nomination of Lord Petre, seconded by the Hon. P.
Mostyn, that he should have the happiness of presiding. He
knew when a former meeting took place a delicate feeling
prompted those who were present to suggest that it would
be better to wait until a new Archbishop of Westminster
should be elected, lest any proposal might be adopted
which might not receive the approval of the new arch-
bishop. (Hear, hear.) It was now his pleasure to give
the Catholic people of England an assurance on that
subject. It had pleased the Holy See to appoint
him to fill the see of Westminster—(hear, hear)—
and he Could say that there was not an object that could
give him greater pleasure than the erection of the proposed
memorial cathedral—(cheers)—connected as it would be
with the memory of one of the kindest, the dearest, and
best friends he ever had. (Cheers.) He would, without
further occupying their time, call upon Mr. Patterson to
give the meeting an outline or narrative of what had al-
ready been done, and how matters stood at the present
time.

The Rev.Mr.FATTERSON, in relating the causes that had
led to the present meeting, said that 12 months ago a paper
was circulated amongst the friends of Cardinal Wise-
man with a view of presenting that eminent man
with a testimonial of regard for his personal
and public virtues on the occasion of twenty-five
years of his episcopal consecration. (Cheers.) It was
subsequently thought that the first suggestion—that of a
picture—should take a larger form, and a service of church
plate was proposed as the form of testimonial, and that
design would have been carried out, but the event which
Providence decreed • separated his friends and admirers
from him for ever. A committee, as soon as possible after
the death of his Eminence, was formed, and a meeting was
afterwards held at the Stafford Club, at which resolutions
for building a cathedral as a memorial was unanimously
agreed to. After the application was made to Rome for
advice, and at this moment, although nothing could be done
to forward the object of the memorial until after the selec-
tion of the late cardinal's successor as Archbishop of West-
minster, yet his correspondent assured him that that
point had nearly been settled, and that he had great
pleasure in announcing that the person appointed would
heartily second the object in view. (Cheers.) That as-
sumption had been verified—(cheers) ; and although they
had been actively engaged for the last five or six weeks,
yet the subscriptions to aid in carrying out the proposal
amounted to £ll,OOO. (Cheers.) That, of course, would
be but a small portion of the amount required, but
he felt assured that with earnestness and per-
severance success was certain. He had letters from
Lord E. Howard, Lord Arundel of Wardour, Lord C.
Thynne, Mr. Wright, of Kelvedon, and the Rector of May-
nooth expressing their regret at not being able
to attend the meeting ; and also letters from
America, India, France, Germany, Belgium, Spain,
Italy, and many other places, all promising cordial
support. Count Montalembert also had sent stat-
ing his inability to attend, but expressing his deepest sym-
pathy with the object in view. He had within the last
few days received a letter from Vienna, containing a con-
tribution of £l,OOO towards the proposal, but he could not
tell them the name of the generous donor. This was a world
wide sympathy with them, and success could not but be
certain. It had been thoughtby some that the erection of a
cathedral would entail such a call upon charity that other 4
laudable objects would suffer, but after the fullest considera-
tion, it was finally resolved that the cathedral should be the
object decided on, and that it shouldbe such an one as would
be a standing advertisement of the existence of the Roman
Catholic Church in this country. (Cheers.) They had
only to appeal to the world in the name of Cardinal Wise-
man, and success must follow. All that now was wanted
to accomplish the task was energy and well-directed
work. (Cheers.)
The CHAIRMAN then called upon _

Mr. J. POPE HENNESSY, who on rising was received with
loud cheers, said he had to more the following resolution :
"That their lordships the Bishops of the Province, and the
most eminent, most rev., and the right rev. prelates in Ire-
land, Scotland, France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Italy,
Spain, Portugal, North and South America, India and the
British Colonies, and elsewhere, be invited to co-operate
as vice-presidents of this work with the provost and chap-
ter of the cathedral church, and the noblemen and gentle-
men and members of Parliament present at this meeting, at
home and abroad." The hon. gentleman, in moving the
resolution, said he believed it was true what had been
said of Cardinal Wiseman, that he was not of one
country, but of all nations, that his labours had never
been confined to one district, but that they had
been cosmopolitan. The memorial proposed to be
erected to the late Archbishop combined both greatness and
simplicity. While he was always teaching, the late Cardinal
was always the intelligent student. The late Cardinal was
never actuated either by compromise or coWardiee• He
had nothing to be ashamed of in his religion, and the
cathedral they were about to erect would be a proof 6f the
faith the clergy had in him throughout the world. (Hear;
hear.)
Mr. BAGSHAW, Q.C., in seconding the resolution, said
in the first place, before he proceeded to acquit himself of
the duty that had been placed upon him, he had to explain
to them that had not Justice Shee had to attend the Lord
Chancellor's levee ha most certainly would have been
present. (Hear.) He could not but say with what pleasure
he attended there that day, because he cherished
with the utmost affection the memory of the late
Cardinal Wiseman. It had been wisely said that the Car-
dinal was not a man of one particular country—he was a
man of the world. (Cheers.) He was one of the kindest
and best of men, and he sincerely believed that the Al-
mighty never created a more amiable man. (Cheers.) He
begged cordially to second the resolution, and in doing so
promised, on the part of the Catholics of Wales, that as
much as could would be raised in that poor country, for
poor it was. (Cheers.)

The Rev. CHAIRMA.N then put the resolution, and it was
carried unanimously.

Mr. BLAKE, M.P. for Waterford, moved the fourth reso-
lution :--" That subscriptions for the object proposed by
the meeting be at ones entered into." He should not, after
the very excellent address they had heard, trespass long
upon their patience, but he must be permitted •to say that
he felt certain that his country would well respond to the
proposal to erect a metropolitan cathedral, and he felt cer-
tain the fears that other charities would suffer from the
great exertions that would have to be made for the memo-
rial were entirely groundless, and that no other work
of usefulness would suffer. (Cheers.) The committee
to be appointed to carry out the wish of the meeting
would, he felt certain, be worthy of the memory of the
great man whose name it was sought to perpetuate.
(Cheers.)
Sir G. BOWYER said it had been the good fortune of the
former speakers to perform the agreeable part of the
proceedings, but it had come to his and his hon. friend's
share to do the other, but not less important, part of the
meeting, viz., the announcing of the opening of the sub-
scription lists. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) After all that
had been said, ho would not occupy them with any length-
ened observations in eulogy of the late Cardinal Arch-
bishop, because all knew his goodness, and all cherished
his memory in their hearts. (Cheers.) There had been
some objection to the proposed memorial cathedral, and
some had objected to subscribe because they had already
done so, and were in the habit of subscribing to schools,
convents, and chapels ; but they would not, he felt certain,
be unprepared for a little opposition at the outset of their
labours. (Cheers.) He felt certain that other churches would
not suffer by the proposal. With respect to the object now
before them all could give something, and if all gave that
something the cathedral would be erected. (Cheers.) If
people did not resolve to do great things, great things
would never be done. All present wanted something great
done, and the best thing was to pass the resolutions to
do it—(cheers)—to strike while the iron was hot. (Loud
cheers.)

The Rev. Chairman then put the resolution to the meet-
ing, and decided it carried unanimously.

The Rev. Mr. PATTERSON said that all who wished to
take advantage of the suggestions of the last speaker, viz.,
to strike whilst the iron was hot, would find the anvil pre-
pared for them at the doors, (Loud laughter.)

Mr. ESMOND, M.P. for Waterford, moved the next reso-
lution—viz., " That the Archbishop Elect (chairman),
Lord Edward Howard, Lord Petre (trustees), Viscount
Campden, Canon O'Neal, Sir C. Clifford (treasurers), Dr.
Gilbert (vice-chairman), and the Rev. J. Patterson (secre-
tary), be the committee for carrying out the wishes of the
meeting. (Cheers.)
Father GALWEY seconded the resolution. He said all
they wanted now was the funds to erect the cathedral.
That they were all agreed upon. There would be quite
time enough for discussion when style and position were
to be decided on. (Cheers.)
The resolution was carried unanimously. _ _

The Secretary (Mr. Patterson) read a list of subscriptions
up to the present time :--Anonymous, £2,000 ; Viscount
Campden, £l,OOO ; V. Fielding, £l,OOO ; E. Bailey, £5OO :
E. Bailey, £5OO ; E. Firth, £5OO ; W. Sills, £2OO ; R. Dely,
£2OO ; Rev. A. Paul, £lOO ; J. M'Cabe, £lOO ; Mostyn Sir
Pyers, £2OO ; Sergt. Bellases, £lOO ; T. Ward, £lOO ; Sir
Chas. Clifford, £lOO ; Mr. North, £lOO ; Mr. Wetman,
£lOO ; Mr. Dnmphy, £lOO ; Miss Tasker, £l,OOO ; Stuart
Mill, £250 ; Mr. Edward Blunt of Paris, £5OO ; besides a
large number of subscribers ranging between £5O to £5,
Sir P. Mosnat moved, and the Very Rev. Canon BOCK,

D.D., seconded a vote of thanks to the Archbishop Elect,
for presiding over them that day. (Cheers.)
The meeting agreed to the proposal unanimously, and
gave three vociferous and hearty cheers for the newly-
appointed Archbishop.

Dr. MANNING, in returning thanks, said he should do
very ill if he was to detain them after the length of time
they had been already in that room, but he should do still
worse if. he did not give free 'utteranc.e to the fulness
of his heart on the matter before them. (Cheers.) He
thought there should be a cathedral erected in London.;
and although they could not expect to.equal Notre Dame,
yet. they could erect a building in which their holy
religion, could be properly celebrated. Such' an
edifice they had not at present. He had thought.
of the objections to the plan of those who proposed schools,
but he felt that the clergy and laity must exert themselves
to the utmost in the cause of education, and that, as the
erection of the cathedral was a transient act, to be done but
once, it would be well to set about it in earnest ; and he
begged to assure every one present that the memorial,
dedicated as it was to the memory of one of the most
learned, kindest, and best of men, should have his most
earnest and best support. (Cheers.)
The proceedings then terminated.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE,

TATTERSALL'S-LAST EVENING.

The "off " day preceding the Epsom week is an excep-
tion to the rule, and falling, as it did to-day, between the
Bath and Harpenden meetings, it could not fail to produce
some features of interest in the Derby betting. Members
began to assemble early, and from the first settling on the
Bath meeting was proceeded with, alternated by some
transactions—on the quiet—on the Derby. When specula-
tion began in earnest 6 to 1 was taken about Gladiateur,
7 to 1 Breadalbane, 9 to 1 each about the Duke and Archi-
medes, and 10 to 1 about Wild Charley, seVeral of the re-
mainder being supported at various prices. Shortly
before five o'clock, however, it was officially announced
that The Duke had been scratched at 4.14 p.m.,
a declaration which was received with blank asto-
nishment by all, and with dismay by a great many.
For some time the news was too ugly to believe, but the
presence of Mr. Weatherby in the subscription-room, to-
gether with the well-known Burlington-street sign manual
on the " notice board," soon dispelled the fondest doubts.
As might naturally be supposed, many deplored their own
personal losses by the scratching of a horse that had oc-
cupied so unequivocally firm a position in the betting from
the first day he was backed for the Derby ; bjit, despite
their own disappointment, they did not forget to express
their sympathy for the noble owner, who, they said,
though the heaviest sufferer himself, never attempted
to recoup himself to the amount of a single guinea when
he found that his horse had gone amiss. For this act
alone the Marquis of Hastings will be regarded as a true
and worthy supporter as well as patron of the Turf, and
it may be some small recompense for his sudden dis-
appointment to know that of the numerous backers of the
Duke there is no one who will not mingle with his own
chagrin his individual regret for the baffled expectations of
the young English nobleman who has sacrified so much to
secure that coveted trophy, the " Blue riband" of the
Turf. On the withdrawal of the Duke the betting under-
went a complete change. 9 to 2 was taken 'and offered
about Gladiateur, and 11 to 2 accepted about Breadalbane,
while Archimedes advanced to 7 to 1, taken freely. But
the most noteworthy changes were anent Christmas
Carol, Longdown, and Oppressor, who shot ahead with
such suddenness that 13 to 1 and 14 to 1, each to
£lOO, were taken about the first two respectively, while
1,000 to 70 was vainly sought for about Mr. Mackenzie's
horse. Chattanooga was again sadly knocked about. The
first bet booked about Mr. Naylor's horse was 2,200 to
100, but, after the scratching of The Duke, the opposi-
tion had another shy at him, when 20 to 1, 18 to 1, 20
to 1, and 18 to 1 again and again were laid in "tens,"
"ponies," and fifties"—a state of things which tended but
little to establish this still mysterious horse in public
favour. The Marquis of Hastings's second string, Kan-
garoo, said to have escaped the influenza which struck
down his stable companion, was inquired after, 1,000 to
20 being taken twice. The remainder of the transactions
will be found amply detailed in the subjoined list of
closing prices :
