IPSWICH-JULY 11.

A very small show of wheat offering to-day. The trade
remains exceedingly heavy, the millers alone the buyers,
and they only for their immediate wants. We consider
that a fall of 2s to 3s per qr. took place before sales could
be made. Unusually heavy storms of rain are flying
about in various districts, and the reports of the crops
being considerably lodged are general. The absence of sun
and heat is also considered to be retarding the prospect of
harvest. All spring corn inquired for, and dear.

the number that should have been given. With regard
to the Dissenters he shrank from expressing any opi-
nion. He would only observe that the right reverend
prelates had made out a strong case on the subject, and
he had no doubt the dissenters would take the oppor-
tunity of telling their story, and the public could then
judge between the two. With regard to the Roman
Catholics, whose attendance seemed so disproportionate
to the number of sittings, that circumstance might per-
haps be accounted for by tlai fact that they had a number
of short morning services, the attendance at which would
not appear in the returns. Whilst on this subject he
might observe in reply to a noble lord who stated a few
nights ago that no one ever looked at the church school
returns, that 21,000 copies of the abstract of these re-
turns had been sold. The same noble lord also com-
plained that whilst the expense of the census of 1841 was
but 30,0001., the cost of the last census was 171,0001.
This was a natural mistake for the noble lord to have
fallen into, because he was net perhaps aware that the
expense of the census of 1841 was defrayed out of the
poor rate. The real fact was, that whilst the cost of the
census of 1841 was 51. 9s. per thousand of the popula-
tion, the cost of the last census was but 51. 45., being a
saving of 55., whilst everybody admitted that the infor-
mation was more ample. The estimated cost was
150,000/., but 127,000/. was only spent, and 9,0001. was
returned to the treasury. He thought it right to state
this, as an unfounded prejudice had been created on the
subject. He wished also to state, not on information
derived from the Registrar-General, but from the supe-
rior department, that great powers of administration
had been displayed by that officer. (Hear.)
After a few words from the Bishop of ST. DAVID'S
and the Bishop of OXFORD, who withdrew his motion,
The house adjourned at a quarter to ten.

ITALY.

It is stated in a private letter from Piedmont that
a contingent of 25,000 men has been demanded by
France from the Sardinian Government for the
purposes of the Eastern war. The Sardinian Go-
vernment is said to have declared that it did not
desire better than to co-operate with the Western
Powers, but that the present state of the finances
did not permit it to grant so large a body on foot.
25,000 men are, perhaps, too much to expect from
Piedmont, where the - entire army is about 48,000
men. The contingent, which is not due till next

YORK, NEWCASTLE, AND BERWICK.
A special meeting of this company was held at York
on Saturday, Mr. James Pulleine in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN said the meeting had been called in
order that two bills now before Parliament should be
submitted to the shareholders, in compliance with the
standing orders of the House of Lords. The first bill
which he should submit was one which enabled this
company to purchase the land upon which the Pontop
and South Shields Railway had been formed ; and,
having explained the provisions of the bill, he moved a
resolution approving it, which was seconded by the Lord
Mayor of York, and unanimously carried.

The CHAIRMAN said the next bill was to enable the
company to construct docks at Jarrow Slake and a
branch railway thereto, and to enable the Dean and
Chapter of Durham to appropriate 5,0001. of the pur-
chase-money of some land for the endowment of a
church. The quantity of land required was 140 acres,
and the profitable sum to be expended was 300,0001.
a sum that would soon be saved by the proposed altera-
tions. Having explained the operation of the various
clauses, the chairman moved "the approval of the bill,
which was seconded by Mr. Hunter, and adopted.

YORK AND NORTH MIDLAND.

A special meeting of this company was held at York
on Saturday.
The CHAIRMAN (Mr. H. Thompson) said the bill which
he had to submit was one in which their company was
not directly interested. It was to incorporate a com-.
pany for making a railway from near the Picton station,
on the Leeds Northern line, to near the Grosmont sta-
tion, on Whitby and Pickering branch. The clauses
which affected their company might be called protective
and permissive. With reference to the operation of the
new company, it was clear it would tend to improve the
Whitby district, by giving access to large beds of iron-
stone, and render that town a more popular watering-
place. He concluded by moving the approval of the
bill, which was seconded by Mr. Seymour, and carried.
A vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the pro-
ceedings.

LEEDS NORTRE RN.
A special meeting of this company was held at Leeds
on Saturday, to consider the North Yorkshire and
Cleveland Railway Bill now before Parliament, and to
sanction the application of the capital of the company to
the proposed undertaking to the extent of 30,0001. Mr.
J. Kitson presided, and, after referring to the advantages
likely to accrue to the Leeds Northern shareholders
from the construction of the pioposed line, by the open-
ing out of the iron district of Cleveland, he proposed a
resolution approving the bill, which was seconded by
Mr. Durham, and carried unanimously.

ITALY.

It is stated in a private letter from Piedmont that
a contingent of 25,000 men has been demanded by
France from the Sardinian Government for the
purposes of the Eastern war. The Sardinian Go-
vernment is said to have declared that it did not
desire better than to co-operate with the Western-
Powers, but that the present state of the finances
did not permit it to grant so large a body on foot.
25,000 men are, perhaps, too much to expect fronl
Piedmont, where the entire army is about 48)°°?

IMADAME PUZZI'S CONCERT.

This concert took place at Willis's Rooms on Friday
last, and was numerously attended. It was difficult to
obtain even standing room. Among the artistes present
were Miss Louisa Pyne, Madame Caradori, and Madame
Ama,dei, Mr. and Mrs. Sims Reeves, Signor Gardoni,
and Herr Formes. Among the morceauz which were
most admired were " Bel raggio," by Madame Caradori,
and a ballad from the Minnesinger, sung by Mr. Sims
Reeves. A French romance, "Le Chemin du Paradis,"
sung by Signor Gardoni, and accompanied by the author,
Blumenthal, received a unanimous encore. Among the
instrumental performers were Signor Puzzi, on the hdrn,
Mons. Prudent, on the pianoforte, and Signor Bazzini,
on the violin. The concert appeared to give the greatest
satisfaction to its very numerous audience.

FRANCE.

The Moniteur announces as follows the signing
of a protocol by the Conference of Vienna :
" The representatives of France, England, Aus-
tria, and Prussia, assembled in Conference, have
signed at Vienna a new protocol destined to unite the
Anglo-French convention and the Austro-Prussian
treaty to the engagements entered into in the pro-
tocol of the 9th of April."
The Sentinelle of Toulon states that it is in
contemplation to form a fifth division for the
army of the East, to be composed of the 21st, 28th,
and 42d regiments of the line, the 23d light
infantry, 14th foot-chasseurs. The same
journal adds that almost all the officers of the
marine-artillery composing the staff of the com-
panies, expected from Lorient and Brest, to be
sent to Gallipoli, have arrived at Toulon, and
aro to sail immediately for their destination,
The Fleurus and the Navarin, screw-line-of-
battle-ships, are to be immediately fitted out for
active service.

The Momiteur of yesterday contains a report to
the Emperor, from M. Bineau, Minister of Finance,
announcing the complete success of the late loan.
This happy experiment is not only valuable as a
proof of the sound condition of the public credit,
but, in the present disturbed state of the world,
becomes of real political importance. A sixth part
of the subscription only was payable ae this period,
but up to the present time the half of the subscrip-
tions has already been paid up. The subscribers
derive a benefit of 5 per cent. from the trans-

action.
The Three per Cents. opened on Saturday at 69f.

THE WAR.-LOYALTY IN THE COLONIES.

CLOSE Or THE SESSION.—On Saturday last his
Excellency communicated by Message to the Assembly
a copy of the Queen's declaration of war against Russia,
and other documents connected therewith, including an
order to lay an embargo on Russian vessels. Nearly
all the members gave expression to their sentiments on
the occasion, highly approving of the. course taken by
the Imperial Government ; and on, the motion of Mr.
Earle it was unanimously resolved that the whole of the
•provincial revenues be placed under the control of the
Governor, in case of emergency.
On Monday last the session of the Provincial Parlia-
ment was closed by his Excellency Sir Edmund W.
Head, Bart., &c., and in his speech to the House of
Assembly a graceful allusion was made to this loyal
offer. "I feel confident that her most gracious Ma-
jesty will highly value the loyal feeling which dictated
your resolution, placing at my disposal the resourc S.
of the province for the defence of the country and
the honour of the British Flag." New Brunswick is
well known to the mercantile world for the superiority
and extentof its ship-building and export of timber, &c. ;
to the public it is familiar front its having built
the Marco Polo of world-wide fame. Indeed the best
portion of the noble vessels engaged in the Australian as
well as our East India and China trade are New Bruns-
wickers. Many a British soldier is now sailing to the
field of martial glory in New Brunswick built transports;
and the European and North American R tilvvay (now in
course of construction by Messrs. Peto, Betts, Brassey,
and Jackson) which connects the United States and
Canadian Railways with Halifax, in Nova Scotia, the
first part made by the Cunard steamers, when bound for
America, is well known to flip various persons employed
in the manufacture of iron tubing, railway iron, &c.; in
this country.
We notice, in referring to the last census, that New
Brunswick " go.es'ahead"' of the neighbouring states of
Maine, New Hampshire, -Vermont, and Massachusetts,
including Boston- with its 137,000 inhabitants, in the
increase of population during the last 11 years, by about
2 per cent.,' and-this is no small boast when the rapid
rate of increase of population in America is considered,
and she has-increased her own population during the
same period nearly 26 per cent. This province is out
of debt, like her sister province Canada, as declared by
the Canadian Prime Minister, at the banquet given re-
cently in honour of the Earl of Elgin, previous to his
departure for his Government of Canada on the 6th inst. ;
and like her she is busily constructing her railways. It
is therefore not an empty offer, when a rich and pros-
perous colony devotes its resources to. aid and assist us ;
and we hope so good an example will be followed by
others of our colonial dependencies, should any such as-
sistance be required.—New Brunswick paper of 4th
May, 1854.

bill that the proposed capital of the company is 180,0001.,
and the amount of loan 60,0001. The length of the cail-
way is '9 miles 7 furlongs, and the steepest gradient is 1

CALEDONIAN (LES3fAUAGOw BRANCHES).

Mr. BOUVERIE reported from the committee that no
additional share capital is proposed to be raised under

sistant engine, the length of which is 61 furlongs, and
the inclination lin 66. The length of the main line is
18 miles 2i chains, of the North Southfield Colliery
branch 1 mile 14 chains, and of the Little Gill branch 1
mile 2 furlongs. The steepest gradient on the main line
is lin 66, and on the branch lin 32. It is intended
that the railway should pass on the level eleven public
roads. The estimated coast of the railway is 125,0001.,
and the quantity of land required 196 acres. The com-
mittee are satisfied of the fitness in an engineering point
of view of the proposed railway.

UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

CAMBRIDGE, MAY 27.
At the Congregation on Wednesday next, May 31, the
following grace (among others) will be offered to the

Senate :--

On the recommendation of the Press Syndicate, to
authorise the Syndics of the Press to carry on the busi-
ness of the press by means of a partnership with Mr.
George Seeley, of Fleet-street, London, bookseller, and
Mr. Charles John Clay, ILA., of Trinity College, and
of Bread-street-hill, London, printer; and to settle (under
the advice of counsel) a deed of partnership, which shall
be submitted to the Senate for its approval.
A report from the Syndics, together with " heads of
agreement" which it is proposed to embody in the deed
of partnership, will lie at the Registrary's office for in-
spection of members of the Senate on Saturday, Monday,
and Tuesday, May 27, 29, and 30, between the hours of
11 a.m. and 2 p.m.
It is intended to offer a grace to the Senate for affixing
the seal to the deed of partnership on Monday, July 3.
The University press and its management has for many
years past been the subject of utter astonishment to those
who have had the opportunity of seeing the yearly ba-
lance-sheet. A large establishment, involving immense
property, with the prestige of the University, has scarcely
paid its expenses. It is to be hoped that the above grace
will be carried, as there can be no doubt the press, if
properly managed, might be a source of considerable
emolument to the University.

GREECE.

The Moniteur of yesterday announces the occu-
pation of Greece in the following terms :

" The grave causes of discontent which the attitude of
the Greek Government and its evident participation in
the troubles of Epirus and Thessaly have given to France
and England are already known. The Cabinet of Athens
had received warnings, but it has had the fatal obstinacy
to take no notice either of its duties of gratitude to us,
or of the interests of the country it governs. The insur-
rection was put down by the Ottoman troops, and con-
demned by the good sense of the population. The Hel-
lenic Government, with great blindness, organizes on its
frontiers a new armed insurrection, and finds, in order
to defray the cost of this treacherous war, resources
which its treasury, exhausted by a deplorable adminis-
tration, is powerless to furnish. In a word, it has made
itself the paid auxiliary of the Cabinet of St. Peters-
burg. Our political interests, the success of our mili-
tary combinations, and our dignity required that an end
should be put to that scandal, and General Forey, com-
manding the 4th division of the army of the East, has re-
ceived the order to proceed to the Piraeus, of which he is
to take possession. A regiment of English marines, placed
under the orders of the French General, will form part
of that expedition, which at this moment must have at-
tained its object. France and England do not declare war
against Greece. They desire to withdraw the Hellenic
Government from the fatal influence to which it has
yielded, and to offer to it a last hope of security."

BELFAST AND BALLYMENA.

The report of the directors states that the traffic re-
ceipts during the half-year ending the 30th of April. I4st
amounted for paisengers to 10,5971., for parcels, horses,
&c., to 5221., and for goods, mails, &c., to 8,8961.•
20,0151. The working expenses amounted to 8,8961.,
and the interest on loans to 2,7221., leaving a disposable
balance of 8,3631., out of which the directors recommend
a dividend of 20s. per share, • which will amount to
7,7001., and an addition of 185/. to the reserve fund,
making it 2,0001. for the year, and leaving 4781. to be
carried forward to the credit of the next half-year. The
increase iu the traffic as compared with the correspond-
ing period of last year amounted to 3,1571., or 181 per
cent. The amount at the credit of the reserve fund is
now 10,2161. The extension lines from Ballymena to
Coleraine to Portrush, • and from Randalstown and
Cookstown, are in progress. It appears from the bal-
ance sheet that the expenditure on the main line amounts
to 516,6591., and on the CoOkstown extension to 4,8811.
together 521,5401. The receipts on shares and loans
amount to 493,2081., leaving 28,332/. due to the bankers
on capital account. Appended to the report is a list
of the shareholders, from which it appears there are,
including the board of 16 directors, 269 shareholders,
holding on the average paid-up capital of about
1,4001. each. Out of the' 269 shareholders, it ap-
pears, by a distinguishing- mark placed against the
.names in the list, that there are 127 shareholders, includ-
ing the present board, who are 'eligible to be elected
directors. This is one of the very few railway companies
who publish a list of the shareholders with' each half-
yearly report. The dividend for the past yezir amounts
to 41. 4s. per cent.

SOUTH DEVON AND TAVISTOCIC.

Mr. BOUVERIE reported from the committee on this
bill that the proposed capital of the company is 160,0001.,
and the amount of loan 53,000/. The length of the main
line is 13 miles, and that of the branch to Le Moor 4
miles 11 chains. It is proposed to construct the main
line on a guage of 7 feet ; the steepest gradient being 1
in 60. There are three tunnels proposed, of which
the first_is intended to be 200 yards in length, the second
572 yards in length, and the third 242 yards in
length, and the breadth of each tunnel is intended
to be 18 feet, and the height thereof 18 feet. The
amount of the estimates of the cost of the railway is
154,0001., and the quantity of land required for the
main line is 1451 acres, and for the branch 25} acres.
The committee are satisfied of the fitness in an en-
gineering point of view of the proposed railway.
