We have received the Paris journals of yesterday,
but although they all contain very lohg leading
articles there is little in them that would be found
interesting to the English reader.
The Constitutionnel attacks the Debuts for having
spoken favourably of a publication by M. Dollfus,
one of the leading men in manufactures in Alsace,
in which he recommends the removal of the pro-
hibition to import cotton thread and manufactured
cottons from foreign countries. The Constitu-
tionnel asserts that, notwithstanding the progress
that this branch of industry has made in Alsace,
it is not yet in a condition to support competition,
and must have protection to ensure its prosperity.
This journal states, in Alsace, the great majority
of the manufacturers differ from M. Dollfus, and,
therefoke, it' infers that he must necessarily be in
error. This mode of reasoning, ho ivevwjs by-no
means conclusive. Manufacturers who ohave car-
ried on their operation under the pyptectionist
system, are never the first to call for qmpetition.
Most of them are men who do not Beg far beyond
their own looms, and from habit theyliave a na-
tural dread of innovation. Even in England,
where men engaged in manufactures have more
enlarged views than in most other countries, the
protectionist system would be still flourishing, if
the government and legislature had waited for
petitions from them for the abandonment of that
system. - --
Extensive preparations are making for the Im-
perial coronation, which will take place on the
10th of May. The Cathedral of Notre Dame
will be in the hands of the architects after Easter
Sunday.

* EXAMPLE.—At the commencement of the year 1841 a person aged
thirty took out a Policy for 1,0001., the Annual Payment for which
is 241. Is. Bd.; in 1847 he had paid in Premiums 168/. I Is. Bd. ; but
the profits being 2% per cent. per annum on the sum insured (which
Is 221. 10s. per annum for each 1,000/.), he had 1571. 10s. added to the
Policy, almost as much as the Premiums paid. . •
The Premiums, nevertheless, are on the most moderate scale, and
only one-half need be paid for the first five years when the In-
surance is for Life.

Pa'ent.—Newly-invented and Patented Application of Che-
mically-prepared White India-rubber in the construltion of Artificial
Teeth, Gums, and Palates.—Mr. EPHRAIM MOSELY, Surgeon-
Dentist, 61, Grosvenor-street, Grosvenor-square, Sole Inventor and
Patentee.—A new, original, and invaluable invention, cor•sisting in
the adaptation, with the most absolute perfection and success, of
CHEMICALLY-PREPARED WHITE INDIA-RUBBER as a lining
to the ordinary gold or bone frame. The extraordinary results of
this application may be briefly noted in a few of their most promi-
nent features, as the following :—All sharp edges are avoided; no
springs wire., or fastenings are required ; a greater increased free-
dom of suction is supplied : a natrral elasticity hitherto wholly un-
attainable: and a ft:, perfected with the most unerring accuracy, are
sec.ired, Nhiie from 1,,e Lo Lne^s and flexibility of the agent em-
ployed, the greatest sup 11 is given to the adjoining teeth when
loose or rendered tender by the absorption of the gams. The acids
of the mouth exert co agency on the chemically-prepared White
India-rubber, and as it is a ron-conductor, fluids of any temperature
may with thorough comfort be imbibed and retained in the mouth,
all unpleasantness of smelt or taste being at the same time wholly
provided against by the peculiar natm e of its preparation.
To be obtained only at 61, Grosvenor-street, London ;
22, Gay-street, Bath :
34, Grainger-street, Newcastle-on-Tyne.

AFFAIRS OF BUSINESS.—In every affair of
trade, buying or selling, equality and prices, are the condi-
tions of satisfact,l7 contract. The superior quality of all goods
offered to public inspec ion, or made to order by E. MOSES and
SON, is so well known, and has been so long tried, that very little
need be said on that suklect ; but the unity of low prices, and the
very best qualities, is a system of business which E. MOSES and
SON were the first to introduce, and have been the most successful
In carrying out. This they have made applicable to every branch of
their gigantic business, and have adhered to it during all changes in

the seasons or the markets. They have never hesitated to pay the
best prices for the most artistic and accomplished workmanship
but they will by no means inflict higher charges on any of their pa-
trons. The LADIES' are furnished with HABITS the most graceful
in style, and from the finest and most fashionable materials, or
with RoSIERY, the neatest, most novel, and useful. GENTLE-
MEN are provided wail the best materials and workmanship in
every description of ATTIRE which their professions, engagements,
or the season mar. render necessary. All good or orders are charged
much low-r prices at E. MOSES and SON'S, than at any other
house In th- world.

GOLD FROM AU'S TRALI A.—The last arrival amount-
ed to upwards of one and a half millions sterling—a largo por
Lion of which was for business transactions in Australia, by E.
MOSES and SON, their CLOTHING having sold for a vast amount
of Golden Treasure," and the satisfaction it is giving, warrants in-
ve-tments to any extent. .All EMIGRANTS, MERCHANTS, or SHIP-
PERS, may avail themselves of the most SALEABLE, because the
BEST and most SUITABLE Goons, at E. MOSES and SON'S, the
prices being considerably lower than at any other house—the same
advantages are offered to Emigrants of every Class, their Outfits or
any portion of them, being charged wholesale prices A depart-
ment kept for Outfitting, and full List of Outfits and shipsailing in-
formation may be had on application, or post free to any part of the
kingdom. . .

CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to gaard the
public against imposition, having learned that the untradesman-like
falsehood of " Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's
the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and for
obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have

have also materially contributed. The traffic for the
half-year ending 31st January last amounted to
240,0221., and for the corresponding period of 1852 to
215,1751., showing an increase of 24,8471. The work-
ing expenses for the former period amounted to 93,5101.,
or 39 per cent., and for the latter period to 92,5631., or
43 per cent., showing an increase of only 9531. in the
expenses, while the increase in the receipts for the same
period amounted to 24,8471. The debenture bonds
falling due during the last six months have been re-
newed at 34 per cent. The company's relations with
neighbouring railways are on a satisfactory footing.
The identity of interest of the Caledonian and Edin-
burgh and Glagow Companies, and the fairness of
the working agreement are every day more apparent,
in the harmonious, and mutually advantageous
management of the traffic on either side. A good under-
standing has been come to with the Glasgow and South-
Western and Scottish. Central Companies. The agree-
ment with the Edinburgh and Glasgow Company has
been modified, in one respect, from the terms of the me-
morandum submitted to and approved of by the proprie-
tors on the 9th of June last. Instead of the working
expenses of the two companies being kept distinct during
the first five years, it has been arranged that the Cale-
donian Company shall work the Edinburgh and Glasgow
fines at 35 per cent. of the latter company's share of the
gross earnings, till the entire working charges of both
railways shall be brought below that rate, in which event
the percentage, will be the same to both. The report
states that the alteration will tend considerably to re-
duce the expenses of the two concerns, admitting of one
management, which could not otherwise be beneficially
carried out, and which constitutes the chief merit of the
change. The bill introduced into Parliament gives effect
to the alteration. Two other bills are being promoted
—one, for the connecting branch with the Edinburgh
and Glasgow Railway, near Glasgow ; branches to the
harbours of Greenock and Port-Glasgow; the extension
of the Barrhead line to Crofthead ; the erection
of an hotel at Glasgow ; and the funding of the
debenture debt. The other bill, for a branch to connect
Clydesda'e Nv'th the Glasgow and Paisley joint line.
The est;inaed cost of all these works does not exceed
117,0001., a portion of which will be borne by the Edin-
burgh and Glasgow Company. The report of Mr. R.
Sinclair, the manager, states that the plant has been
kept up at its full intrinsic value, and has been employed
in conveying a largely increased traffic. The passenger
trains during the half-year ran in the aggregate 478,081
miles, the goods trains 309,123 miles, and the mineral
trains 253,784 miles—total 1,040,988 miles ; and the
pilot engines 106,881 miles. The total cost of locomo-
tive power was 33,2401., including 10;130/. for repairs,
being at the average rate of 7•61 d. per mile, 'including
2•43 d. for repairs. The cost of working the carriage
and waggon stock was 1,643/., or 0•47 d. per mile, and
of repairs 1•70 d. per mile, making the total cost of
working stock 9 78d. per mile per train. The number
of passenger engines working was 59 ;. repairing, XlO ;
renewing, 4 ; total, 73 ; and goods engines, working,
43 ; repairing, 8 ; total, 51. The mean loads have been
for passenger trains 7.74 carriages, and for goods trains
25.88 waggons. The capital account showed that
7,453,6391. had been expended, leaving a balance of
188,9751. The ordinary share capital amounts to
3,147,4811., .the.preference shares to 745,1801., the loan
capital to 1,979,7271., and the guaranteed capital to
1,770,2261. ; total. 7,642,6151. The revenue account
for the half-year ending the 31st of January last shoWed
that 245,7541. had been received and 97,304/. expended,
including 3,7881. passenger duty and rates and taxes,
leaving 148,4501. Out of this sum 4,7621. is deducted
for feu duty and compensation, 45,619/. for intereat,

has withdrawn part one year he can, by a single payment, three
years, or any time afterwards. raise his policy to a greater or even
its former amount ; and by this system he can at all times regulate
his annual savings by his annual expenditure, with the facility in the
nargain of having a fund to fly to in case of necessity, the same as
in a bank, with this palpable advantage, however, that he gets Inte-
rest for his money, and in case of death his family receive mere than
the amount of his savings. In ordinary Life Offices he can do no
such thing, but his policy at enco lapses or is cancelled the moment
he ceases to pay his current premiums, and, instead of having any
fund to fly to for aid, all his hard•earned savings become forfeited to
the society, and his misfortunes serve to benefit the pockets of his
more fortunate co-assurers.

Such a system is too equitable and too striking to be overlooked
and DEPOSIT assurance is the only system of assurance which can be
universally recognised and adopt" when the principles are impar-
tially canvassed; and its palpable benefits become widely diffused. It
confers greater advantages than a bulk because it allows a fair rate
of interest in case of withdrawal, and gives twice the amount in the
hands of the Company to the representatives of the Depositor in
case of death, thus combining the
ADVANTAGES OF A BANK WITH THE BENEFITS OF
AN ASSURANCE COMPANY.

In case of endowment assurances the advantages of the DEPOSIT
system are still more striking.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
NEW YORK, MARCH 1.

The stock market was dull, with a drooping tendency
rates. No particlar change can be noticed in the de-
mand or value of money.
The sales of cotton were 300 bales, the inclemency of
the weather being against operations. Prices 91c. to
94c. for middling Uplands, and 9/c. for Mobile and New
Orleans ; classed parcels of full grades commanding ie.
higher. Good middling, 10c. for Uplands, and 104 c. to
10Ic. for New Orleans.
To-day flour was in moderate request, and firm. The
day's movements reached 8,800 barrels. Wheat ruled
quiet. The transactions were restricted to 3,000 bushels,
Western red at 1 dol. 11c., and a few lots Long Island,
at 1 dol. sc. to 1 dol. 6c. per bushel.
In the provision market pork was inactive at 17 dols.
per barrel for new mess. Beef moved off slowly at 20
dols. to 22 dols. per tierce for prime.
Scotch pig iron, on the spot, was saleable and firm,
at 38 dols. per ton usual time.
In freight engagements to Liverpool were light, though
rates continued steady. For flour 3s. per barrel was
asked, and 94d. for grain. There was no change to
notice in the rates for London or Havre.

ROYAL GEOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY.

Last evening a meeting of this society took place at
the Royal Institution, Albemarle-street ; Sir Roderick
Murchison, President, in the chair.

The meeting was very fully attended, and amongst the
company were the Marquis of Tweeddale, Earl Gifford,
Sir R. Inglis, M.P., Mr. Hume, M.P., Sir T. D.
Ackland, Bart., Sir George Nicholls, the Earl of
Sheffield, General Sir George Pollock, Sir Walter
Trevelyan, Mr. R. Stephenson, M.P., Mr. Lionel
Gisborne, Mr. Arrowsmith, Dr. Pitmann, Captain
Ommaney, &c.

The minutes of the last meeting having been read, and
various new members having been elected, a paper was
read by Captain R. Fitzroy, R.N., on the Great Isthmus
of Central America.

Captain FITZROY reverted, in the outset, to his former
paper on tlte Central American Isthmus, read to the
Geographical Society in November, 1850, and afterwards
printed in the journal, expressing a hope that the present
observations might be considered supplementary to what
he said on the former occasion, and not in itself sufficient
to expound the important question referred to. After
some general introductory remarks, Captain Fitzroy took
a

brief view of seven lines of proposed inter-oceanic com-
munication. He then alluded to the novel and impor-
tant information recently received, especially from Mr.
Gisborne and Dr. Cullen, and he showed that whatever
preference might have been given formally—in 1850—to
the Atrato and Cupica line, for a water communica-
tion, there was no argument that could be adduced in
favour of that line which did not apply with far greater
effect to the line proposed between the Gulf of San
Miguel and the almost classical locality formerly named
by Paterson (who founded the Scotch colony on the isth-
mus and the Bank of England) the Caledonian Harbour.
Captain Fitzroy then examined the geographical de-
tails of that part of the isthmus, giving a sketch of the
present state of our knoWledge of the vicinity and a
brief outline of its history. He next entered into a
consideration of the nature and feasibility of a canal
on such a gigantic scale as was contemplated by Sir
Charles Fox, Messrs. Henderson, Brassey, Cullen,
and Gisborne. He alluded to the labour attainable—
to the possibility of employing convicts, and to the
prudence of establishing military organisation to a certain
extent for the sake of order, and perhaps for defensive
measures. He then proceeded to refer to the two great
impediments to such an undertaking, viz., the claims of
the native aborigines, and the unhealthy climate, and he
showed by what means these obstacles might be greatly
lessened. He next called attention 'to Mr. Gisborne's
opinions upon the size and nature of such a canal, and
advanced others somewhat at variance with them. In
conclusion, he referred to certain legal doubts which I

THE STEAM-SHIP AUTRALIAN.

The Australian Royal Mail Steam-ship Company's
packet Australian, Captain Hoseason, R.N., put back
to Plymouth again disabled yesterday morning. She
left on Thursday, the 10th inst., at 5 p.m., and has been
as far as 200 miles west of the Eddystone. The trial
trip which she took on Thursday afternoon gave entire
satisfaction to her Majesty's dockyard and to the officers
of the company ; and Captain Hoseason and the engineer
of the ship left England with a full expectation of making
a prosperous voyage. However, the next day, Friday,
the 11th, at 11.30 a.m., it was found that the boilers
would not "feed ;" and, on overhauling the pipes and
valves, they were discovered to be choked, apparently

.HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

- -

The interior of this famed lyric temple was yesterday
crowded by an audience of a very diff,rent cliaracier
from those who are wont to assemble witT:in its ,valls.
The occasion was an attempt on the part of a gentleman,
to whom the valuable properties and fiat rcs of tee
theatre were mortgaged about four years since, for a
sum amounting with int,re.rt, to 12,000/., t > foreclose
and realise. The announcement of the int :::de I sale has
been some time b:dore the public, but e,.v per ens be-
lieved that the parties chiefly interested in the preserva-
tion of the property would allow mattes to pi o-;...ed to
so desperate au extremity. fhis impression was
strengthened by the fact of a distress hvied lo:• parochial
rates a short time ago, upon which a sde hal hen ad-
vertised by Messrs. Oxenharn, having been paid out at
the last moment. No withdrawal of the advertisement
announcing the second sale took place, however, ai.d
yesterday, at two o'clock, the portals of her Majesty's
Theatre admitted all who presented themselves, on
payment of one shilling, in consideration of which, each
person was presented with a goodly octavo of five sheets,
containing a detailed catalogue of the property to be sold
in 1,500 lots, varying from "half-a-dozen devils' tunics"
to the "superb fittings of her Majesty's box," and thus
briefly enumerated in the title-page :—" All the tenants'
fixtures, fixed and moveable machinery, scenery, the
organ (built by Flight), two piano-fortes, three drums,
the monstre bass violin, the chandeliers, the furniture of
the various boxes, dressing rooms, committee rooms,
offices, and other apartments, the valuable library of
ancient and modern music, the wardrobe of ladies' and
gentlemen's apparel, the stage properties, the fittings of
the national concerts, and all other properties belonging
to her Majesty's Theatre." There were between 200 and
300 persons present when the auctioner, Mr. Jaim.s
Scott, of Broad-street, ascended the rostrum, which
was somewhat theatrically arrayed upon the stage.
The parties in attendance consisted chiefly of gen-
tlemen connected with theatrical property, and some few
lawyers. A great deal of whispering had been gob .g on
previously, and runigurs were rife that the sale would be
prevented at the last moment. Some surprise was
therefore felt when Mr. Scott proceeded to read, with-
out preface, the conditions on which the property was
offered for sale. These conditions explained that tl:e
whole would be put up at 12,000/. ; that each bidding
afterwards must be at least 501.; that a deposit of 201.
per cent. should be paid down ; that immediate posses-
sion would be given ; and that the property must be re-
moved within a certain number of days. In introduc-
ing the property, Mr. Scott remarked that the library of
music was, he believed, by general acknowledgment, the
finest collection extant. It consisted of 130 modern
operas, 150 old operas, and the music for 100 ballets.
The wardrobe included nearly 8,000 dresses. He was
quite sure it. would be unnecessary for him to dilate upon
