MIDLAND and EASTERN COUNTIES
RAILWAY.

A MEETING of the SCRIPHOLDERS of this COMPANY will
be held at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street, London, on Mo
DAY, the 15+h instant, at One o'clock precisely, when a copy of the
Bill now depending in Parliament, intitoled "A Bill for making a
railway from the Cambridge line of the Eastern Counties Railway at
Cambridge, to the London and Birininglta•n Railway at or near
Weedon, in the county of Northampton," will be submitted to the
consideratioa of such meeting.—By order,

WILKINSON' and COBBOLD,
Solicitors to the Company.
4, Queen-square, Westminster, June, 1846.

LEICESTER AND BEDFORD RAILWAY.
The Committee of Management have great pleasure in re-
ferring the Shareholders to the Report of the Committee of the House
of Commons, unanimously deciding that the preamble of the Leices
ter and Bedford Railway Bill has been satisfactorily established
before them.
The Committee of the House of Commons arrived at this unani-
mous decision after an investigation of nearly three weeks, during
which period every effort was made by the Midland Company so
procure the rejection of the Leicester and Bedford in favour of their
own scheme—the South Midland.

The very strenuous and protracted endeavours of the Midland
Company to obtain a line of railway over the same ground as that
occupied by the Leicester and Bedlord Company, affo, d most satis-
factory proof of the commi rcial importance of the line, and its value
as a permanent investment to the Shareholders.

The Committee of Management have also the pleasure to inform
the Shareholders, that they are in a position to comply with the
Standing Orders of the House of Lords requiring a deposit of 101. per
cent., without making any further call upon the Shareholders.
The Committee of Management be;,, to call the attention of the
Scriphelders to the subj fined notice of the meeting to he held on the
10th of June next, in compliance with the Sessional Orders.

from being proceeded with ; and also by limiting the time for
making the calls it would greatly tend to relieve the labour
market. But he should deny that it was in the power of the
Committee to remedy the evil, as the Noble Earl appeared to
think, because in some cases lines of railway came before the
Committee and were not opposed, and then the Committee
bad no remedy but to pass them. _ .

Lord ASH.BURTON could not clearly see his way through
the difficulty with which this question was surrounded ; but
he did think it would be a means of inflicting great hardship
upon individuals if railways which had made a certain progress
were now to be stopped.
The Duke of WELLINGTON would like to see the in-
struction intended to be proposed by the Noble Lord before he
could consent to it. He thought it would be very inconve-
nient to allow all the Bills to be collected into one mass, before
any step should be taken to limit them, and that would be the
effect of the first resolution.
Lord MONTEAGLE was of opinion that if some step should
not be taken to put a stop to these railway
speculations, the
Legislature would find itself surrounded by difficulties. Many
railways had been started, not because they were useful public
works, but because they were mere speculations. He was of
opinion that it would be well to give parties, under certain
circumstances, at least twelve months time for consideration.
The Duke of RICHMOND quite agreed with his Noble
Friend in the observations he had made about speculative rail •
ways, but he found it would be an act of injustice to some to
stop them, if they were now in progress ; but he would suggest
that some measure should be taken to remedy the evil by the
next session, and he thought the best way of doing it would be
by limiting the means of borrowing money. He was also of
opinion that the standing orders ought to be revised, and made
more decisive.

The supply of Beasts on offer was but moderate, yet the
Beef trade was in a very inactive state, at about Monday's
quotations. From Holland we received 6 Cows and 100
Sheeps; from Prussia, 20 Oxen; from Germany, 21 Oxen
and 180 Sheep; and from Scotland, 80 horned and polled
Scots. The numbers of Sheep being on the increase, the
Mutton trade ruled dull, at previous quotations. From the
Isle of Wight 200 Lambs catne fresh to hand ; from other
parts the receipts were extensive. All kinds moved off
slowly, and prices were with difficulty supported. In Calves
a good business was doing, at an advance of 2d per Blbs.
Pigs dull, at our quotations. Milch Cows Were selling at
from 161 to 18/ each. Suckling Calves, 18s to 28s ; and

market towns in our province of Austria, and celebrated
for its wines, has been almost wholly destroyed by fire.
About 200 houses are burnt, and there is reason to ap-
prehend that it is the work of an incendiary, since
threatening notices has been previously given.

MEMOIRES D'UN MEDECIN.
L'OBSERVATEUR FRANCAIS, pries 6d.,
will commence, on the 6th of June, a new Romance, by Alex-
andre Dumas, entitled " Les Memoires d'un Medecin." This ro-
mance contains a vivid description of all the principal events which
occurred at the end of the last and the commencement of the present
century, the most eventful epoch in the annals of France. The first
part contains the time from the marriage of Marie Antoinette till
the year 1786. The second part will contain the six years from 1789
to 1794, from the destruction of la Bastille till the end of the Reign of
Terror; after which will appear Le Directoire, l'Empire, la Restau-
ration, and all the contemporary events connected with that event-
ful period..—William Thomas, publisher, 21, Catherine street, Strand.

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

As customary, Don Giovanni attracted an overflowing as-
semblage, the pit being so crowded at one moment as to be
impassable. The comparative coolness of the house, with such
a crowd in so warm a season, showed last night the good
result of having consulted scientific men in the new ven-
tilation of the edifice, in all respects, essential as well as
ornamental, so admirably restored. The heat, unbearahle
in most edifices, is here kept down by currents of the out-
ward air, so subdivided and so general, that no draught
is felt. Thus is salubrity combined with recreation.
The pressure of matter will not allow of our doing justice to
the performances of the night. It suffices to say, that the
dances as well as the lyrical portion of the entertainments
met with repeated applause and encores. One encore alone
failed—it was that of the shadow dance—the treacherous
moon would not light itself again, and consequently the
heroine of the pas, although recalled twice running, and en-
ticed with bouquets, could not gratify her admirers. Le
dflire d'un Peintre, admirably enacted by Grahn, and a new
pas of the graceful Taglioni, finished triumphantly the per-
formance of the night.

In his magnificent shalamir,
In whose saloons when the first star
Of evening o'er the water trembled,
The valley's loveliest all assembled;
All the bright creatures that, like dreams,

Of beauty from its founts and streams;
Here, too, the harem's inmates smile;
Maids from the west, with sun-bright hair,
And from the garden of the Nile,
Delicate as the roses there;
Daughters of love from Cyprus' rocks
With Paphian diamonds in their locks;

On the gold meads of Candahar ;
Everything young, everything fair,
From east and west is blushing there.

With grapes of gold, like those that shine
On Cusbin's hills;—pomegranates full

LONDON, SATURDAY, JUNE 6, 1846.

The Lords met at Five o'clock.

The presentation of a petition on the subject of the obser-
vance of the Sabbath, gave rise to a short conversation, in
the course of which Lord CAMPBELL expressed an opinion
that it was unnecessary to run goods' trains on rail-
ways on Sundays. He was answered by Lord Baot-GRAM,
who showed, that under certain circumstances
it was necessary that goods' trains should run on Sundays,
and, as a case in point, stated that on one occasion the Bank
of England had been preserved from a stoppage of cash pay-
ments solely by the arrival of a large quantity of specie on
a Sunday.

The Earl of RIPON moved the Committee on Lord Gouan's
and Lord HARDUCVS Annuity Bills.
Lord MONTEAGLZ remonstrated against the pension being
kept in abeyance as long as the pensions from
the East India Company subsisted. The pensions
were granted as a token of gratitude from the country
for distinguished services, and ought to have no re-
ference to any reward which the East India Company might
be pleased to bestow to those distinguished individuals for
their services.

The Duke of RICHMOND entirely concurred with the
Noble Lord (31orazAGLE) in his reprobation of the conduct

THZ RICOGNITION.

Lalla Rookh, surrounded by her ladies, and led forward
by Fadladeen, advances. But such is the agitation of her
heart and frame, that it is with difficulty that she walks up
the marble steps, which are covered with cloth of gold, for
her ascent from the barge. Aliris, the youthful King of
Bucharia, is seated on a throne, by the side of which is an-
other, destined in a few moments for the most beautiful
princess in the world. Immediately upon the entrance of
Lalla Rookh the monarch descends from his throne to
meet her, but scarcely has he time to take her hand in his,
when she screams with surprise, and faints at his feet. It
is Feramory himself who stands before her—Feramory
himself, the sovereign of Bucharia, who in this disguise had
accompanied his young bride from Lahore, and, having won
her love as a humble minstrel, now amply deserves to enjoy
it as a king. The consternation of Fadladeen is pitiable ;
but, to make up for the false step he had taken, and to propi-
tiate the favour of his new master, be swears by all the saints
of Islam that never has there existed so great a poet as the
monarch Aliris. The ballet concludes by the rejoicings and
the floral dances of the "Feast of the Roses"
London, England, 1846-06-06

THE HIGHLAND DWARFS.

THE HIGHLAND DWARFS, who have had
the honour of exhibiting before her Majesty and his Royal
Highness Prince Albert on two different occasions, are now to be
seen in the Cosmorama Rooms, 209, Regent-street, every day from
twelve to two o'clock, and from three to flve ; and from seven to nine
in the evening. The dwarfs are three in number, twe males and a
emale (brothers and sister) ; they are fully equipped in the High-
las.d garb, and perform a series of national, mart'al, and festive
dances. The two males, who are remarkably active, excel in the
celebrated Gille Coullani, or Sword Dance ; and so extraordinary is
the muscular development of the eldest that he can with ease carry
two 561 b. weights about the room. He and his brother exhibit all
the positions of the broadside exercise with a precision that would do
honour to the first school of fence. And in addition to their other
accomplishments, they, in conjunction with their sister, sing the
beautiful airs of their native glens with exquisite taste and feeling.
As Mr. Mackenzie. who has these singular creatures under his
protection, can (in consequence of his other engagements) remain but
a short. time in town, the admirers of the wonderful in nature are
requested to pay an early visit.

SCENE VIII.-KIOSK.--CASIIMERE.

Lalla Rookh has at length arrived in the far. famed valley
of Cashmere. If anything could have charmed away the
melancholy of her spirits, it would have been the fresh air
and enchanting scenery of the valley which the Persians so
justly call the unequalled. But neither the wonders nor
glories of the most lovely country under the sun, nor the
gay pomps and processions that meet her on every side, nor
the magnificence of her reception, can steal her heart for a
minute from her sad thoughts.siiipieblonduieldisors:vi The rose. coloured bridal
veil is flung over her head ; the ambassadors come to tell
her that all is prepared for the nuptial ceremony, and that
the King awaits her. The glance of Lallah Rookh falls upon
the poet ; she wishes to refuse the hand of the proud Mo-
narch, but Fadladeen expostulates with her, reminding

her of the dangers of a refusal. She at length gives way,
and is led forth like a victim to the sacrifice.
SCENE IX.—The Vale of Cashmere and Feast of Roses.
Upon the lake serene and cool ;
All were abroad—the busiest hive
On Bela's hill is less alive,
When saffron beds are full in flower,
Than looked the valley in that hour.
A thousand restless touches played
Through every grove and island shade ;
A thousand sparkling lamps are set
On every dome and minaret ;
And fields and pathways, far and near,

And all were free and wandering.
It seemed as though from all the bowers
And fairest fields of all the year,
The lake, too, like a garden breathes.

Had fall'n upon it from the sky !
And then the sounds of joy—the beat
Of tabors and of dancing feet ;
The minaret crier's chant of glee
Sung from his lighted gallery,

LEICESTER AND BEDFORD RAILWAY.
The Committee of Management have great pleasure in re-
ferring the Shareholders to the Report of the Committee of the House
of Commons, unanimously deciding that the preamble of the Leices
ter and Bedford Railway Bill has been satisfactorily established
before them.

The Committee of the House of Commons arrived at this unani-
mous decision after an investigation of nearly three weeks, during
which period every effort was made by the Midland Company to
procure the rejection of the Leicester and Bedford in favour of their
own scheme—the South Midland.
_ _

The very strenuous and protracted endeavours of the Midland
Company to obtain a line of railway over the same ground as that
occupied by the Leicester and Bediord Company, afford most satis-
factory proof of the eomme rcial importance of the line, and its value
as a permanent investment to the Shareholders.
The Committee of Management have also the pleasure to inform
the Shareholders, that they are in a position to comply with the
Standing Orders of the House of Lords requiring a deposit of 101. per
cent., without making any further call upon the Shareholders.
The Committee of 31anagement beg to call the attention of the
Scripholders to the subjoined notice of the meeting to be held on the
10th of June next, in compliance with the Sessional Orders.

LONDON, MONDAY, JUNE i, 1846.

After a generation or so has passed away, and when
the struggle of free trade has been fully consummated
in the perfect development of its operation, the people
will undoubtedly recur to the late discussions in Parlia-
ment with a more solemn and thoughtful interest than
that with which they are regarded at present. In the full
flush of so glorious an achievement, it is indeed almost
beyond possibility to divest ourselves sufficiently of a par-
tiality fur speculations on the future, to scan, with
an attentive eye to detail, the multifarious sentiments
which have been advanced by our legislators. Of the
arguments employed by the discomfited section in the
Commons little more will be thought then inasmuch
as they indicate the excitement then paramount
among the self-elected champions of a pro-
tected agriculture ; for, with reference to the
statistics introduced in favour of the now-exploded sys-
tem, they were so fantastically specious, so miserably
mai. a-droit, and so built up upon rotten premises, as to
deserve nothing better than a passport to oblivion. It is
in the temperate, ardent, and singularly able address of
Lord SUNIZT that bits very old-Legi9uod party v 41114-
