PRELISIIN,UtT ANNOUNCEMENT.

SEVERN VALLEY RAILWAY
(SHREWSBURY TO WORCESTER),
Under the sanction of the following Proprietors of Estates upon the
Line :

His Grace the Duke of Cleveland, K.G.,
The Right Hon. Lord Forester,
The Right Hon. Lord Sutteley,
Sir John Dean Paul, Bart., &c. &c.

A Company is in the course of formatioi. for constructing the above
Railway, which is intended to afford to the districts along the valley
of the Severn the benefits of railway communication. The proposed
line on leaving Shrewsbury will proceed down the valley of the
Severn, accommodating in its course the towns and districts of
Coalbrook-dale, Ironbridge, Madeley, Broseley, Much Wenlock,
Bridgenorth, Bewdley, Kidderminster, and Stourport, near which
latter place it will fall into the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhamp-
ton Railway, thus giving a direct communication between those
places and Worcester. It will also form the shortest route between
Worcester and the whole of the south-west of England and Wales,
on the one hand, and Chester, Holyhead, and the north of Ireland
and Wales, on the other.

The landowners have been communicated with, and are generally
favourable, and their wishes will be consulted, as far as possible, as
to the course of the line.

qA preliminary survey of the line has been made, and a detailed
Prospectus will be shortly issued. Communications in the mean
time may be addressed to Morley Chubb, Esq., 22, Parliament-street,
London.

upon, or whether it was a mere blind put forward 1
in a not very uncommon name, with the object of
inducing the-bystanders to believe that the eminent
English banking firm of that name contemplated an
interference in the matter, and thus to invest the
transaction with a spurious popularity, and induce
others to take shares in a project with which persons
of such undoubted respectability were not ashamed to
connect themselves, we cannot say. Every probabi-
lity certainly seems in favour of the latter alternative.
The most obvious way of obtaining justice for
the defrauded sufferers is manifestly by show-
ing how deeply the public mind throughout the civi-
lised world is impressed with the abominable and iniqui-
tous conduct of Spain in her dealings with her creditors,
and that a determination exists not to lend her the
slightest aid in her embarrassments, not to advance
one single shilling in her most pressing exigencies,
until she has removed the blot from her escutcheon*
the stain from ber character. Any person who would
violate that general feeling, and, by lending further
sums, enable the Minister to brave and set at defiance
the feelings of general indignation, and to protract
the final settlement with the national creditors, would
become the abettor and participator in the infamous
financial policy that has hitherto been pursued.
However anxious for considerable gains and large
profits they may be, we cannot bring ourselves to
believe, until convinced by clear and satisfactory evi-
dence, that any English banker would act such a part.
The recent observations of the Noble Secretary of
State for Foreign Affairs in the House of Commons,
and his emphatic cautions to insolvent, or rather to
delinquent States, who are able, but unwilling, to pay
their honest debts, as to the possibility of a time ar-
riving when England will no longer patiently see her
children defrauded of their just rights, but may have
recourse to that dernier ressort of injured nations, the
ultimate argument by which they are enabled to en-
force that redress of their grievances which they are
unable to obtain by other and less sanguinary means,
appears to have excited a burst of virtuous indigna-
tion in Spain. Do they suppose that they are still to
be flattered and addressed with soft and honeyed
words ; that we are to feign that confidence
in their honour and honesty, which it would be im-
possible to feel ; that we are to see day by day, month
by month, and year by year still passing away with
nothing done, and to restrain the expression of our
indignant disgust at their open and unblushing viola-
tion of every moral obligation ; that we are to wit-
ness such ridiculous and delusive propositions sub-
mitted as that the absurdity of which we so recently
demonstrated, and still
.to aver our confidence in
Spanish honour and Spanish integrity? No ; English-
men are no hypocrites, and nothing but the grossest
hypocrisy could lead to such a course. Far
better is it for all parties to speak -out openly
and plainly. The Spanish pride may be hurt,
but if they feel acutely the severity of the reproach,
there is a plain and simple way by which it can be
averted, and their reputation re-established. They
may protest that they were about to adopt steps to
satisfy all parties before they were assailed by re-
proaches, but that would be too gross and transparent
a humbug to deceive even the most credulous. If
they possessed the means and inclination to pay they
would not be withheld from doing so by any re-
proaches which their consciences must acknowledge
to be but too well founded. But, in fact, it is a pre-
text such as would be adopted by a swindler, who,
when active steps were taken to make him disgorge
the plunder he had obtained, would talk of the fine-
ness of his feelings, and of his firm intention to pay
• everything to the last farthing until he was insulted
by the doubts cast upon his integrity, &c. &c. The
time for temporising has now passed. Spain must
be made to feel the real degradation of
her position, and until she has taken means
to purify herself from disgrace, her Ministers and re-
presentatives should be dealt with in such a way as to
testify in the most unequivocal manner the feelings
entertained by other Governments and nations with
respect to her fraudulent and dishonest conduct.

A letter from Constantinople of the 30th ult., in
the Augsburgh Gazette, says—
" We have received the following news from the Cau-
casus. On April 27 there were skirmishes near Niami,
and the 31st near Jukrisk. The Russians remained
masters of the field, but great losses were sustained on
both sides. On May 16 the mountaineers made an at-
tack upon Kerikaleh, a Russian fortress on the Kuban,
and g.ained possession of it, and destroyed it, notwith-
standing the arrival of the Russian army. The garrison
defended itself bravely, and a young Russian officer
blew up a powder magazine, destroying 400 men, most
of them Circassians. Nevertheless,- after a combat of
twelve hours, the place fell into the hands of the enemy;
again, on June 8, there was a severe conflict between a
Russian division, commanded by General Lipiski, and
the mountaineers commanded by Mohammed Guba, in
which 5,000 men perished. The Circassians are said to
have been so much in want of powder, that they paid
300 Turkish piastres a pound for a supply."
A letter from Limburgh, of the 14th, states that the
judgments of the tribunals upon the principal actors
in tha late insurrections in Gallicia have not only
been pronounced, but confirmed by the superior tri-
bunals, and ordered to be carried into execution.
Three have been condemned to death, and 200 to
imprisonment.
A Leipsic journal announces that there will be
shortly held at Dresden a congress for arranging a
general reform in the postages of Germany. It is
confidently expected that the first measure will be to
suppress the transit charge, and afterwards to establish
one general rate for the whole of the German States,
for letters and journals. The congress will after-
wards propose one uniform measurement of distances,
and also uniform weights and measures in general
for all Germany.

The business transactions of the Bank of England
were consequently much contracted, and the pressure
felt this week in the discount market is thus easily
accounted for. The chances are, however, that when
the Bank has the Money market fairly under control,
there will again be a slight relaxation, though with the
present Currency Bill it might be unlvise too soon to
relax the hold obtained. Some slight symptoms of im-
provement in the foreign exchanges have been exhibited
on the last two post days, and as we are liquidating a
portion of our liabilities for grain imported, by ship-

They contain an account of the grand banquet
given to M. DE LAMARTINE, at Macon, on the Sunday
preceding. The subscribers to it amounted to 2,400,
and there were more than 4,000 spectators. In the
midst of the banquet a tremendous storm arose, which
completely destroyed the marquee in which it was
held; but the greater part of the guests and specta-
tors remained on the ground. The Mayor of Macon
proposed M. DE LAMAKTINE'S health in a complimen-
tary speech. That gentleman replied in a discourse
of great length and eloquence, in which he insisted
on the sovereignty of reason, the imperishable rights
of liberty, the alliance more and more necessary of
the Government and the people, and on several other
topics of importance. Everything passed off quietly.
The Union Monarchique has the following on the
rumoured modifications in the Cabinet :
" The extraordinary convocation of the Council of
Ministers, which took place two days ago, and gave rise
among the public and in the press to many comments
bordering more or less on truth, had positively for its
object the reading of a letter addressed to Louis Philippe
by the Duke of Dalmatia. In that letter, which he had
written after a long and painful attack of neuralgia, the
Marshal excuses himself on his bad state of health for
not being able to bear any longer the burden of public
affairs, and manifested his irrevocable intention of re-
signing the Presidency of the Council. After receiving
that communication the members of the Cabinet re-
ceived from the Chief of the State an invitation to
consider the choice of a person whom it might be ex-
pedient, under existing circumstances, to invest with the
important functions to be left vacant by the retreat of
Marshal Soult. Immediately after that overture, the
Minister of the Interior rose and moved that the Presi-
dency of the Council be confided to the Minister of
Foreign Affairs. No opposition being offered, that
