4EICESTER AND BEDFORD RAILWAY.
Scripholders' Regpstratiol)-cdUM 63, Meorgate-street.
Many of the --Seripholars is this iaTiway, who are of opinion that
it cannot, in the present state of railway and Government affairs, be
carried out with advantage to the Proprietors, have instructed me to
take measures for stopping the further progress of the Bill in Parlia-
ment, and for putting an end to the enormous expenses which are
now being incurred, and with that view a PETITION has been pre-
pared to the HOUSE of LORDS for the REJECTION of the BILL,
which will LIE for SIGNATURE at this office, between the hours
of Ten and Four o'clock daily, until SATUBDAY, the 27th instant, ani
also at the following places, viz.:—
Leicester—Bell Hotel
Derby—Bell Hotel
Nottingham—White Lion Hotel
Leeds—White Horse Hotel
Bradford—Talbot Hotel
Huddersfield—George Hotel
Halifax—Swan Hotel
Manchester—White Bear, Piccadilly
Liverpool—Mr. Lacy, Bold-street
Birmingham—Hen and Chickens
Glasgow—John Miller, Esq., 37, West George-street
Edinburgh—James Pringle, Esq., 79, Princes-street.
The price of Shares, now that the Bill has passed the Committee of
the Ilouse of Commons, affords no ground to hope that the market
will be improved if the Bill should eventually pass. All parties in-
terested, who concur in this opinion, will therefore lose no time in
signing the Petition, to put an end to the ruinous responsibility which
will attend the registration of their shares, and the carrying out of
the project. W. F. SPACKMAN.

LEEDS, JUNE 20. . .

STocK EXCHANGE.—The tone of the markets during this week
has been decidedly improved, although only a small business is
doing. Most old stocks are a little higher in price, and first-class
scrip has shown better symptoms, although among the holders of
the latter description of shares there is no great confidence. The
greatest advance of scrip has been in Eastern Counties, York Exten-
sions, but Matlocks, North British (Carlisles), and York and North
Midland (East and West Ridings) are all better. In old stocks higher
prices have been obtainable for Eastern Counties, Brightons, Croy-
dons, London and South-Westerns, Manchester and Birminghams,
Midlands, Newcastie and Darlingtqns, and Newcastle and Berwicks.
It is rumoured that the arrangement between the Leeds and Brad-
ford and the Manchester and Leeds Company will not be carried into
effect, which has given a strong impetus to them, and caused an
advance from 26% p. to 30 p. The sales are—Eastern Counties,

ME POTATO CROP.—SPREAD OF THE DISEASE
Since our notice in Monday's publics ition we have received
additional information on the subjei:t of the disease in the
new potato crop, information which leaves little doubt as to
statementfmththeesadin

gave.

hfionrht forth.
We have been unceasing in our ir Kin iries and in endeavours
we tWheen
to procure the most correct and trt tst worthy information, and
we regret to say that in every cast t -where the plant has ap-
proached maturity, and where arti tidal means to force the
plant have not been resorted to, tb to disease of last year has
manifested itself. We have this morning communications
from Ballymartle, as well as from Middleton and Carrigtwo-
hill, mentioning the appearance o f the blight in those dis-
tricts. In our own immediate • vicinity, in the southern
districts especially, the disease has , beyond all question, ex-
hibited itself. We could enumerat aa several places where the
crop has become affected, but the simple statement of the
fact is sufficient.—Cork Examizisr .
The Town Council of Sunde rland have memorialised
Government to introduce a Bill in to Parliament for compelling
Paving and Lighting Commissioners t xo transfer their powers to the
Corporations, who are responsibie to t be rate-payers, pursuant to the
intention of the Municipal Act. It was stated on Monday, during
the discussions on the subject, that nearly 30,0001. have been ex-
pended during the last sixteen years by the local Boafds of Sunder-
land'
alone in law, arising out of petty squabbles among the different
companies.

FRIGHTFUL AND FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE GREAT
WESTERN ItsmwAy.—On Friday r tiorning an accident of a most de-
plorable character, which has re hilted in the death of an exeellent
servant of the company, happenc xl near the terminus of the Great
Western Railway, at Paddington. It appears that the deceased, John
Vaten, was a painter in the servi re of the company, and was about
thirty or forty years of age. He I was engaged at his work on some
carriages at the time of the occurrence, and it seems he was much
afflicted with deafness, so that the signals were not very readily
heard by him ; and while thus o coupled one of the trains came up,
and before he could get out of the way he was knocked down, and
the wheels of the carriages pas: led over his legs and arms, which
were severely fractured. He was immediately conveyed to St.
George's 01, Hospital, where lie Me( lin about two hours.
