THE SOUTH- WESTERN RAILWAY EXTENSION.—
During the last few weeks very considerable progress
has taken place ir_ carrying into effect, by order of the
directors of the South-Western Railway °Company, the
Act of Parliament for the extension of the line by arches
from Nine Eli w, Vauxhall, to Pedlar's-acre, adjoining
the Ilungerford Suspension Bridge. There is a direct
opening made from the terminus to Vauxhall-walk, the
line being intended to pass through the large area of
ground in the front of Vauxhall-gardens. From the
Wamdsworth-road to the Vauxhall -road neatly the
whole of the piers are built, and which tare about four
feet in width. On some of them the arches are in e,tirse
of being turned. Between this distance there will be
three bridges, W h eh will be constructed with strong iron
girders. On the north side of the Wandsworth road the
level with the arches will be continued to. tic t railway
from the viaduct by a mound of earth, which is now in
the course of formation, The occupants along the
great( r portion of the remainder of the line have been
treated with, and nearly the whole of them have agreed
to terms without submitting to a jury. At the south of
the Archbishop of Canterbury's grounds, in Church,.
street, several houses have been removed, and between
that part and Vauxhall the line will be rapidly
The line will then, by the late Act of Parliament, after being
brought to Pedlar's-acre, be continued to London-bridge.
It is stated that on the compktion of the viaduct the
effect will be a diminuth;not the tolls connected with the
Surrey trusts to a sum of above 8,0001.

WORSHIP-STREET.

John Richards, a young man, about 19 years of age,
was placed at the bar for final examination, charged
with stealing a purse and a quantity of silver from the
shop of Mr. Lord, a perfumer,in Church•street, Haekn(y.
It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor's wife
that while seated in her parlour on the afternoon of Mon-
day, the sth inst., her attention was drawn to a sti=pi-
cious noise in the shop, and on looking up she saw the
prisoner running out into the street. He was intently
pursued by her shopman, who had almost overtaken
him when he was suddenly stopped by a lad who told
him that his mistress desired his immediate return, as
she had lost nothing ; but on reaching the shop he found
that the contents of the till and a purse of the value of 10s.
had been stolen. Having accidentally heard that two lads
named Flynn and Ricketts had been apprehended for
committing
,a similar robbery at Dalton, ho came
to this Court on Monday last to see if he could identify
them, and immediately recognised Ricketts as the person
who had delivered to him the fabricated message which
facilitated the escape of the prisoner. He had no sooner
made the discovery, than the prisoner himself entered
the Court, furnished with a written testimonal, setting
forth the unimpeachable honesty and respectability. of
the prisoners then under examination, and witness in-
stantly seized him, and gave him into custody. Tho two
thieves for whom he displayed such a lively interest had
since been tried and convicted at th© Old Bailey, and

THE CASTLE MILLS, SHEFFIELD.

Another of those diabolical attempts at the destruc
tion of property by explosive substances, for which the
town of Sheffield has obtained a somewhat unenviable
notoriety, was made on Saturday evening last. The facts
are these :
The Castle Mills, situate on the banks of the Don,
were erected, about seven or eight years ago, by Messrs.
Marshall, Brothers, for a grinding wheel, at an expense
of from 15,0001. to 20,0001. ; and had become a prin-
cipal resort for parties who choose to carry on their
business unconnected with the " unions," into which the
vast majority of the workmen of Sheffield have enrolled
themselves.
On Saturday evening last the works were stopped
about twenty minutes before seven o'clock, soon after
which time the premises were entirely cleared, and a
watchman took charge of the building for the night. No
circumstances of a suspicious nature were observed, but
about half past eleven ,o'clock a
Cent terrific explosion
shook the building to its very re. Mr. Marshall,
jun., being near the spot, went to the premises, and on
examination discovered that the cylinder belonging 1.0
one of the steam engines had been blown to atoms by
gunpowder, and the shattered fragments were strewed in
all directions, in addition to which the massive beam was
broken into three pieces. The top of the steam
chest was blown off, the piston considerably bent,
and nearly every portion of the engine more or less in-
jured. Upon further examination it was found that the
watchman, William Ibbotson, who ought to have been
in the most central part of the building, was in a remote
quarter, where no danger from an explosion of the en-
gine could harm him. His conduct in other respects ex-
citing suspicion he was given into custody.
On Monday morning he was taken before the ma-
nager, and after a short examination was remanded
until Thursday next.
The injury done to the engine and premises is estimated
at not less than from 1,0001. to 1,200/.

MARKET NEWS.7(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.-(MONDAY.)
The past week's arrivals of Wheat of home produce, coastwise, as well
as by land carriage and sample, were on a very limited scale, though
of fair average quality. Or all other English grain the receipts were,
comparatively speaking, small. From Ireland and Scotland the sup-
plies of Oats and ether grain were short ; but of Foreign' Wheat the
import was seasonably good—viz., about 12,500 quarters, the whole
of which passed fete the bonded warehouses. Fresh up, the supply
of English Wheat from Essex and Cambridgeshire was somewhat
more extensive than war reported on this day se'nnight; neverthe-
less it was by no means extensive, though of fair average quality.
The stands being rather scan:ily filled with samples of both Bed and
White, and the attendance of both town and country buyers on the
increase, the demand for all kinds- of English Wheat was
steady at fully, hut- at nothing" quotable beyond, the
currencies obtained on this day se'nnight, and at which a good
clearance was effected by the factors. The show of free foreign
Wheat was again small ; yet, as the holders evinced no disposition to
sell except at higher figures, the actual amount of business doing in
that description of produce was small. However, we may cell the
demand for most qualities-steady, and, in the sales effected, very full
prices were again realised, especially for the finest descriptions of
white. For grain in bond there was rather more inquiry, and prices
were well supported in every instance. The stock of Wheat under
lock new exceeds one million quarters ; of flour 600,000 cwt., nearly,
or quite the whole of which will be released for home consumption
on the passing of the measure now under Legislative consideration.
Notwithstanding several cargoes• of Barley were reported fresh up
this morning, the number of samples on offer was limited. For the
finest malting quality we had a very steady demand, at 'idly last
week's prices ; while the value of grinding and distilling sorts was
well supported. Most of the late-arrivals of Barley have been now
cleared off. Since our last report very few parcels of Malt have come
to hand. Season-made qualities sold to-day at extreme figures;
while the sale for other hinds assumed a firmer tone
-
at late rates. At the close of the market a fair
clearance of the- samples was effected. The arrival of
Oats from all - parts reported up to Saturday evening
was small, but since then several cm goes have come In from Ireland
and our own coast. The quantity on offer to-day was rather Hafted,
hence the finest parcels moved off freely at a trifle more money, the
valise of the middling aid Inferior kinds being well supported. Al-
thousch the qeantity. of Beans was-not large, the trade was in a very
sieggish state at barely last week's prices Orgy and Maple Peas
steady, but Hog were a trifle lower. The FlQur trade was heavy at
last week's prices,

THE PROSPECT OF SPRir
• Once more may we happily hail
The soul-stirring prospect of spring;
Mild breezes and sunshine prevail,
And the birds are beginning to sing.
The trees are already In bud,
And the fields are reviving again ;
And many now blossoms bestud
The garden, the hill, and the plain.
This, this is the time to lay by
The garments that winter requied,
And seek for another 'supply,
Where thousands are daily attic d.
The Mart of E. MOSES and SON.,
Which carries the sway, like a king,
Has dresses wkich ne'er were outdone,
Choice raiment—just lit for the spring.

The coats for the present spring season
Are fashion'd in quite a new style;
And, reader, you'll really have reason
To 16ok and approve with a smile.
The waistcoats and trousers, as well,
The highest approval have won ;
While the priCes triumphantly tell
Of sayings by MOSES and SON.

Lch'
Plays must be familiar, was produced here on Satur-
day under the title of The Irish Post. The adaptor,
Mr. Planche, has laid the scene in London, and has
made L'Etourneau an Irishman, and capitally was the
part acted by Hudson. The title, The Irish Post,
is derived from the incident on which the plot of the
piece turns, and which is this :—a certain Terence
O'Gradylady
dy
on
e
boarda steam(Hudson), h
clerk in
to whomnthepityL Las
ng,
met a
been
ex-
ceedingly civil, ventures to address a letter to her; and hay-
ing, as he thinks, dispatched it, he learns that her husband,
a testy, jealous old fellow, opens all ber letters, and reads
them, and moreover he will most assuredly take vengeance
dire on any one who shall dare to insult his wife.
Terence, in a fury rushes to the post-office to get the letter,
The postmistress refuses to deliver it ; he goes to the old
man's house to waylay the postman, getting into all sorts
of amusing scrapes, of course, in his pursuit after his un•
fortunate billet, and, at last, when he is brought face to
face with the husband, the lady, anti his own master, and
fancies that ruin is impending over him, he discovers the
fatal letter in his own waistcoat-pocket, it never having
been posted at all. The piece is full of bustle; the dialogue

in grand style, and was ably supported by Tilbury.,
James Bland, and Mrs. Humby (whose postmistress was
admirable) ; and the audience were kept in roars of
laughter from the rising to the falling of the curtain.
We may, therefore, venture to predict that The Irish Post
will start at the Haymarket every evening until Easter
at least.

THE SUN), X-4,0

as a literary guide of public opinion, deprived of all social and
domestic enjoyments, his exquisite talents served only •to
ensure the shipwreck of his happiness and his fame. One
brief gleam of,sunshine appears in his dark career—his vice-
royalty in Ireland; but this owed its brightne,s to his tem-
porary abandonment of his system. In. Ireland he was com-
pelled to grave aflairs; for the vices of Dublin were too
gross, and its dissipation too brutal to be enjoyed by a man
of refinement; he was far from the gaming-tables of St.
James's, from the saloons of royal mistresses, from the levees
of heirs apparent, from the circle of Lady Yarmouth, and from
the intrigues of the royal closet. Thus circumstanced, he
laid aside frivolity to adopt utility, and thus eight months
of contradiction to his own principles form the redeeming
epoch of his life."
It is not often that we meet with a paper of such
sterling character in the pages of Bentley. The " Out-
pourings" of D. Canter are continued, but the wine is
getting low and vapid. The present libation is an out-
pouring of twaddle. The next paper, " The Last Days
of Riego," by Mrs. Romer, is a spirited contribution
to the romance of history, and affords another illustra-
tion of the truth of the aphorism—tbat truth is
stranger than fiction. In addition to the illus-
tration of " Brian O'Linn," we have a beau-
tiful engraving by Cook, from Sir Joshua Reynold's
portrait of the Countess of Cork, accompanied by an
amusing sketch of the life of that indefatigable Lion-
hunter. We have the Tipperary Hall (a by no means
unsuccessful imitation of the Noctes Ambrosianw) and
the " Zoology of the Gent.," by Albert Smith, an excel-
lent paper, full of genuine satire (as contradistinguished
from lampoon) sparkling with wit, and not wanting in
wisdom. • We hope Mr. Albert Smith will continue his
popular zoology. •

BENTLEY'S MISCELLANY.

Mr. Maxwell, as author, and Mr. Leech, as artist,
open 'the present number with a continuation of "Brian
O'Linn." Mr. N. A. Wells follows, with an amusing
account of as month's residence at adrid; and then we
have a paper of sterling historical value from the pen of
D. W. C. Taylor, entitled " Chesterfield and his Times."
The following passage, with which the paper concludes,
is a just estimate of the character of Chesterfield :
" His own character was factitious; and he therefore re-
garded the characters of others as artificial, and he set about
their examination as if habits of mind were subject to the
same laws as costume and decoration. The world was to him
a huge masquerade; he played the part of the most accom-
plished diplomatist of the French and fashionable school.
There was calculation in his frivolity, and intense selfishness
in alibis actions. He was an actor in a drama; and his
whole ambition was concentrated, not in the success of the
piece, bnt of that special portion which it was his choice to
maintain. Systematic frivolity, the sacrifice of principles to
appearances, a contempt for humanity, an opinion that men
were instruments to be employed and women creatures to be
deceived, a heartless indifference to all the obligations which
can arise from sympathy and affection; such were the ele-
ments of the philosophy which Chesterfield professed, and
on which he stedfastly acted. - - _

•
"A great philosophical experiment was tried by the states-
man whose career we have been contemplating; the selfish
theiry of morals as preached by Hobbes, and practically
expounded by Rochefoucauld, was tested in actual life, with
every advantage it could derive from elegance, grace, and
refinement, contrasted with a grossness of prevailing manners
bordering on brutality. How did it succeed ? There is no
more lamentable failure in our history. Chesterfield never
gained a.triumph. Baffled as a statesman, disappointed as a
politician, super-attenuated as a leader of fashion,:rejeetsd

LONDON, MONDAY, MARCH 2, 1846.

The long and interesting dispatches relative to the affairs
of the Punjaub, which appeared in The Sun on Saturday,
throw much light on our rehttions with that country, and
leave no doubt whatever that the Indian Government was
driven by absolute necessity to make war not only upon
the Seikhs, but the present :rulers at Lahore. In' these
documents three features appear conspicuous above all the
rest—the corrupt and reckless government that now prevails,
the cruelty and lawless disposition of the Seikhs, and the firm
determination, we may say to a fault, of the Governor-
General to commit no overt act which could give the
slightest pretence for aggression. Major BROADFOOT
who appears to have executed his mission with prudence
and fidelity, describes the disgusting and horrible scenes
which occurred in the capital before the RANEE, her paramour
and Ministers, fell upon the plan of attacking the English to
get rid of the Seikh army, and save themselves from certain
destruction. Drinking to excess, debauchery of the most re-
volting character, treachery and cruelty prevailed to an ex-
tent perhaps never equalled at the most corrupt courts.

AMERICAN NEWS.

LIVERPOOL, FEB. 27.—The packet-ship Sheridan, Captain
Cornish, arrived in the Mersey thii morning, from New
York, bringing advices from that city to the sth iustant
inclusive.
With regard to the Oregon question, these advices indicate
better feelings and opinions on the part of the citizens in
and out of Congress. • Rumours were prevalent that
Mr. Pakenham had resumed correspondence with
Mr. Buchanan, and had been received with great
favour. The democracy entertained more pacific views, and
an impression gained ground that a compromise on the
basis of the 49th parallel would be effected. In the Senate
the question bad remained in abeyance, and there had been
much talk on the subject in the House of Representatives,
but no result.
The other domestic intelligence presents no feature of in-
terest. Exchange on London 108-1081, ; on Paris,
527 5 261,1. Freights were scarce. Accounts from
Mexico to the Bth had been received, announcing the ele-
vation of Paredes to the Presidency, and the formation of a
Cabinet, at the head of which was Almonte.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.
OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Baron PARKE and Mr. Justice ILkuLB.)
THE DRURY-LANE MURDER.

Thomas William Wicks, aged 20, was placed at the bar
charged with the wilful murder of James Bostock.
(Continued from our Third Edition of Saturday.)
Mr. Baron PARKE summed up the evidence, and the Jury
almost immediately returned a verdict of Guilty.
The Learned JUDGE then addressed the prisoner, and said
it was impossible, after the evidence that had bQen adduced,
that the Jury could come to any other conclusion than that
he was guilty of the foul and horrible crime of which he had
been accused, and it appeared to have been committed in the
most calm and deliberate manner. Under these circum-
stances it was impossible to hold out to him any hope of
mercy, and he therefore entreated him to make the best use of
the skint time that remained to him in this world, and en-
deavour to obtain pardon in that which was to come. The
Learned Judge then passed the sentence of death in the usual
form.
The prisoner, who during the whole trial appeared to be
quite unmoved, did not appear in the least discouraged at the
sentence. As soon as the Learned Judge had concluded, he
begged to be allowed to say a few words. He then said " that
he wished to thank the gentleman who defended him for his
exertions ; he could see, however, it was of no use, but still he
wished to thank him."
The prisoner then walked away from the Bar with a firm
step.
