MINING INTELLIGENCE.

(From the Mining Journal of this day.)
A greater amount of business has been transacted this
week, but to effect sales, even in dividend stocks, lower
rates have been taken. Bailers, which a short time
since werea
sh 1,200/., have been done at 8001., a fall of
400/. on are paying nearly 2001. per annum in divi-
dends. Bassets have been sold at 6001. to 6201. a
fall of 1501. on a share paying 1201. per annum in divi-
dends. Alfred Consols remain firm at 221. to 221. 10s.
ex. div.

West Alfred Consols 241. to 25/. ; Great Alfred, 301.
to 35. West WheAl Alfred has been suspended, after
an expenditure of 25,0001. in about two years. In Sort-
ridge Consols, in which so much was doing a short time
since, few transactions are recorded, nor will there be
much business in the shares until the machinery is
erected. Herodsfoot shares have changed hands at 71,
being 7,0001. for a dividend mine, with machinery upon
it valued at nearly 5,0001. ; before the south lode was
cut, and which is now the best in the mine, the shares
were 201. each, showing that supply and demand have
more to do with the price of shares than
intrinsic merits. Trewetha, 31. 15s. to 41., North

BUCKINGHAMSHIRE.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held yes-
terday at the Euston Station, Sir H. Verney in the chair.
The report stated that the warrants for the approaching
dividend would be issued to the proprietors on the 18th of
August. The short line forming the junction between the
Buckinghamshire Railway and the narrow guage of the
Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Railway near
Oxford was opened early in April last, and it has brought
a considerable accession of traffic to the Buckinghamshire
line. The junction line at Bletchley will be ready for use
next month. Active exertions continue to be made by the
London and North-Western Company to develope the re-
sources of the district. The traffic on the line is increasing,
and the directors believe that, with the further extension
of the railway system, a largo additional traffic will be
brought upon the railway. The revenue accounts showed
a balance at the banker'sof 5931. after payingthe last divi-
dend of 24,683/. being at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum
on 1,245,0001.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report,
adverted to the increase that had taken place in the
traffic. The junction line had brought them a considerable
amount of traffic, and from the exertions made to de-
velope the resources of the line, they had no doubt that
the result would be very satisfactory.
Resolutions were passed adopting the report and re-
electing the retiring auditors.
The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the
chairman.

it is stated he could rely, proceeded down to Rugby and
other stations, to bring any trains up which might have
had their engines abandoned by the ordinary drivers, while
the telegraph was set to work to urge the locomotive fore-
men at the various depots to make the best arrangements
they could to secure the continuance of the traffic. It ap-
pears that the turn-out at Rugby and Birmingham had
been carried out without concert with the Loudon men,
and the latter had no intimation of what had taken place
till the telegraphic message before referred to had reached
Euston station. From,that moment it was an understood
thing that those men who had actually signed to take out
their trains were about to perform their final trip, and
that on their return they should not go out again. It was
ultimately resolved that no more should go out, and at
half-past ten last night a body of the engine-drivers went
to the locomotive foreman at Camden, and intimated to
him that no more trains would be taken out by the men,
and they were immediately ordered off the premises. The
ground for this determination on the part of the men is the
alleged unfair treatment they received when before the lo-
comotive committee on Wednesday, and their belief that
they have no hope of a redress of their alleged grievances.

of the railway system, a large additional traffic will be
brought upon the railway. The revenue accounts showed
a balance at the banker'sof 5931. after payingthe last divi-
dend of 24,6631:being at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum
on 1,245,0001.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report,
adverted to the increase that had taken place in the
traffic. The junction line had brought them a considerable
amount of treffic, and from the exertions made to de-
velope the 'resources of the line, they had no doubt that
the result would be very satisfactory.
Resolutions were passed adopting the, report and re-
electitig the retiring auditors.
The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the
chairman.

PRUSSIAN PREPARATIONS.

The Prussians, it is said, are preparing for the worst,
300,000 men will soon be under arms for active service,
with 860 guns. An instant order has been given for the

ITALY.

The following declaration, by M. Garibaldi, is
published in the Genoa journals :
"As since my second arrival in Italy, my name has
been mixed up with insurrectionary movements of which
I do not approve, I think it right to manifest my opinion
publicly, and to warn our youths who are always ready
to expose themselves to perils for the deliverance of
their country, apinst allowing themselves to be led
astray by the fallacious representations of men who are
either deceivers or deceived, and who, in urging them
to rash attempts, bring ruin or at last discredit on our
cause."

The Genoa journals of the 7th state that, for the
last three days the number of cases of cholera had
sensibly diminished. A rumour having been cur-
rent that the authorities would not permit the
homoeopathic doctors to prescribe in cases of cho-
lera, the mayor of Genoa has issued a notice that
no obstruction is offered to this mode of treatment.
The Turin journals of the Bth inform us that the
sanitary state of that city was never more satisfac-
tory than it is now.
London, England, 1854-08-12

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sia,--I pray you will pardon my referring to my let-
ter of the 11th April last, in which I addressed to you,
as an old soldier, having served under Napoleon, the
first relating to the supplying the soldier with a proper
cover of cautchouc cloth, which would keep his body,
his arms, and ammunition dry, even if he were exposed
to the heaviest rain fur a week, and which would be of a
weight he could carry without inconvenience. Being
an old experienced soldier, my anxiety for my brother-
soldiers will be well understoOd by you.
I take permission to repeat what I formerly urged
upon the public through your columns, and I trust you
will not consider that I trespass unfairly upon your valu-
able time and space. My intention is to effect a most
important object, viz., to save the lives and the health
of many thousand soldiers in the East, and of many
hundred horses also—not to mention that thus taking
care of their health will be greatly adding to their effi-
ciency.

All military men who have been on active service
know well that when a soldier has his clothes wet, and
that lie is often in such a state obliged to march, to
fight, and even to lie down, that he ilt not only unable
to render effective service, but that such wet clothes
dispose the body to receive the cholera, diarrhoea, and
other diseases, and thus is the great cause of the mor-
tality among tro2ps—far greater than the sword.
In the case of The horse soldier, nothing short of actual
service can convey to us what the poor man has to suffer
in rainy weather. Wet through, even his boots full of
water; and, when arriving at his station for the night,
he must forget or neglect himself and think of his horse
which carried not only him but also the wet and heavy
baggage,. and upon whose strength his own life depended.
There is, as I have already mentioned to you, a remedy
for these evils ; that remedy is to provide the soldier
with a sheet of disinfected caoutchouc, such as I have
seen, pure and as free from anything offensive as linen,
so as not to cause neuralgy. Caoutchouc in the state
it is used endangers health.—l have the honour to be,
sir, your most obed. servt.,

EGYPT.

The news from Alexandria, dated the 2nd of
August, informs us that Said Pacha, the new vice-
roy of Egypt, has abolished the duty on foreign
consumption raised upon corn, and has exonerated
the fellahs from the pasture-dues on the wheat
crops. It is calculated that 500,000 ardebs will
thus be thrown into the free market. M. Koenig,
formerly French tutor to Said Pacha, has been no-
minated principal of the Secretary's department of
that Prince. Mr. Green, an Englishman, is ele-
vated to the functions of director of the transit.
The foreign officers formerly employed as instruc-
tors are to be recalled, for the purpose of taking
charge of the army, which is large, but badly
disciplined. The debt will be liquidated by the aid
of the sale of the goods depot. The inhabitants of
Cairo have illuminated their city during three
nights.

LODGINGS FOR THE POOR.—This plan is take at a
rental ranges of old houses (containing 10 or 12 row, as
each), to convert the staircases of every other house in to
lobbies and accessories for each separate floor ; to bretds:
communications through the party walls on every story ;
to clear off and clean the walls ; in some cases to ad4l.
a story, or, where the curtilages admit of it, to enlarge 3
the houses, and in all cases to convert the baseman t
story into common kitchens, laundries, and cellare. I f
the rental of each house, on a repairing lease, be 504
(and this for central position is a full allowanoe ; txr
suburban sites it might be 35/.), suppose taxes to 'be
121., add thereto the interest of 1501. per house, as t he
outlay on repairs and additions, at 5 per cent., the
total amount is 691. 10s., or say 701. a year, for 1 lye
commodious suites of apartments, consisting of tli iree
rooms each, with closets, presses, and the other c am-
forts of civilized life in higher spheres. This caul* Ibe
done, then, at 141. a year for each family ; but if you
divide these, perhaps, too spacious and, therefore, too
luxurious suites of chambers in halves, the accomrne.da.
tion will far surpass anything to be found, not onky in
Seven-dials, but even in all Soho (such as are le:t to
working people), at a rental of only 71. yearly, or about
2s. 81d. weekly.—The Builder.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—Feb. 22.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
LUMLEY V. GTE.

On the conclusion of Sir F. Thesiger's address,
Lord Campbell very minutely summed up the evi-
'.ence to the jury, and in so doing said there would be
bree questions for their consideration. The first was,
whether the agreement which had been entered into
between the plaintiff and Miss Wagner remained in force
at the time when it was alleged the defendant had in-
duced her to break it ; secondly, whether the defendant
induced Miss Wagner to break the agreement, and
whether she broke it in consequence of his inducement ;
and, thirdly, whether the defendant at that time knew
that the agreement between Miss Wagner and the
plaintiff was then in existence. Upon those questions
his (Lord Campbell's) direction in point of law in refer-
ence to the agreement was, thrt the payment of the
3001. on the 15th of March was a condition precedent
and that, if it was not performed, she (Miss Wagner) was
at liberty to renounce the agreement. But Miss Wag-
ner might have agreed that the time for performing the
agreement should be extended, and it would be for the
jury to consider, upon the evidence, how far she had
done so, and whether the defendant had induced her to
break the agreement before the extended time had ex-
pired. The second question was a pure question of fact
for the determination of the jury. Upon the third ques-
tion, his (Lord Campbell's) direction was, that if the
defendant bona fide believed that the agreement with
the plaintiff had ceased to be binding upon Miss Wag-
ner, the scienter was not proved, and the defendant
would be entitled to the verdict. His lordship then read
over all the material parts of the evidence, and finally
left the above three questions to the jury, with the ob-
servation that, if they should find a verdict for the plain-
tiff, they ought to give such damages as would be a com-
pensation for the pecuniary loss directly caused by Miss
Wagner's breach of her agreement.
The jury retired to consider their verdict, and upon
their return into court found the first two questions in
the affirmstive, and the third in the negative. This
%mounts to a verdict fur the defendant.
Verdict for the defendant.

THE WAR TREATY.

Mr. F. FRENCH wished to ask the noble lord the
member for the city of London, whether the recent
treaty which had been signed between France and Eng-
land, and which bad been forwarded to Constantinople,
Applied to the free tribes of Circassia, as well as Turkey.
Lord J. RUSSELL said the treaty which had been
communicated to Constantinople had no reference to
Circassia.
London, England, 1854-02-23

PRIVATEERING.

Mr. HORSFALL repeated his question, relative to
privateering, which he put to the noble lord the other
night. He wished to know whether the Government
intended to take any steps to prevent the sailing of
privateers under neutral flags during the war.
Lord J. RUSSELL—The only answer I can give
to the question is that the relations of neutrals and the
policy to be adopted towards neutrals by this country
has been a subject of serious consideration to her Ma-
jesty's Government. The hon. gentleman, however,
must be well aware that there are certain things per-
mitted by the law of nations, and that there are other
matters by which different countries have pursued diffe-
rent policies. As to entering into an alliance with cer-
tain of these powers, it is a matter cif serious considera-
tion what should be the policy laid down for neurals, itis a
a question of great difficulty and intricacy, but the hon.
gentleman must see that it would be very unwise in us
to take any steps which should provoke the immediate
hostilities of all neutral powers. At the same time
he may rely upon everything being done for the protec-
tion of the trade of the country that it is possible for the
Government to do. (Cheers.)

SPAIN.

The Gazette of the 16th contains a circular from
the Minister of Public Works to the governors of
provinces, directing them to call on the local au-
thorities to take measures for preventing an in-
crease in the price of articles of the first necessity.
General Infante, one of the exiled generals, has
obtained permission to go to Palma, in the island
of Majorca, instead of stopping at Hisa—Palma
being a more agreeable residence.
The Ileraldo states that the adjudication of the
Northern railway, announced for the Ist of March
will not take place on that day, in order that the
government may have time to examine all the
documents relative to the line, and make known
all the information which may be useful to the
capitalists.
The Diario of the 16th has been seized in con-
sequence of the publication of a violent article on
the subject of the severe measures which the go-
vernment has thought right to adopt with respect
to Generals O'Donnell and Jose de la Concha.
News from the provinces are very satisfactory;
perfect tranquillity prevails everywhere."
