IBRAHIIVI PACHA.

His Highness Ibrahim Pacha did not loom his hotel
until shortly before eleven o'clock on Mondat morning, at
which hour he proceeded, accompanied by bis suite, to Hyde-
park, to attend the review of the household troops.
On returning from the review, his Highness retired to
his apartment, where he enjoyed slight repose during the af-
ternoon.

His Highness dined with the members of his suite at five
o'clock, and subsequently drove to Cremorne House, Chelsea,
for the purpose of witnessing the ascent of Mr. Charles
Green's Nassau balloon.

It is much to be regretted that his Highness was advised
to visit this establishment, for owing to the defective ar-
rangements Which prevailed, the Pacha, as well as his at-
tendants, suffered greatly from the rudeness and indecorous
conduct of the mob.

On leaving the gardens, which the Pacha did with much
difficulty, his Highness drove to his hotel, and did not again
ride out during the evening.
His Highness attended the Thames regatta yesterday,
the Lord Mayor having granted him the use of the civic
state barge.
After inspecting the aquatic amusements, his Highness
honoured the Duchess of Northumberland's fete, at Sion
House, with his presence.

MEETING OF THE LEAGUE.

MANCHESTER, JUNE 29.—A very full meeting of the
executive council of the League was held in the
Council-room, in NewalPs-buildings, on Saturday after-
noon, George Wilson, Esq., in the chair. Mr. Cobden
was present, and took part in the proceedings. The lead-
ing question brought under the consideration of the
meeting, was the immediate or future dissolution of the
League. Some discussion ensued, and Mr. Cobden,
we understand, expressed himself in favour of an
immediate dissolution. It was contended, however,
by other parties, that it would be injudicious and impo-
litic to break up the association so long as the ob-
ject for which it had been rganised, namely, the repeal
of the corn-laws, had note yet been fully and entirely
accomplished. It was
that the act of dissolution should be postponed, to be
rendered coeval, perhaps, with the expiry of. the corn-
ultimately agreed
laws in 1849; but that its otehrearefore; functions should
with as little delay as
at. once cease, and that its affairs should be wound up
possible
understood that, in case of future. It was also distinctly
emergency, the League
should be recalled into existence.
It will be recollected that in respect to the quarter of
a million fund, the first
payment from the subscribers
required to be made was
an instalment of 20
i per cent.
on the respective subscriptions. No further instalment
than this will be called for; but that portion of the sub •
scriptions will be absolut l
League to meet all its monetary engagements before its
operations shall cease.
A meeting of the general council is convened for
Thursday next at the Town-hall, at which all the sub-
scribers of 501. and upwards will have the privilege of
attending. The object of
this meeting is to ratify the
proceedings of the executive council at their meeting on
Saturday.
Nothing definite is yet known as to the Cobden testi-
monial. A few gentlemen in their private capacity,
have met together to discuss the subject, but no plan has
hitherto been determined upon. A testimonial worthy
Mr. Cobden's distinguished services will doubtless be
agreed upon, and the eminent labours and talents em-
barked in the cause of free trade, of Colonel Thompson,
Mr. 'Villiers, Mr. Bright, and Mr. George Wilson, the
chairman of the League, will be acknowledged by the
presentation of some appropriate reward.
There is a strong public feeling in favour of a popular
demonstration, that all classes of the people may partici.
pate of a general holiday, in celebration of the event. In
a few days, perhaps, something may be proposed to I
meet the wishes of the community.

PUClLlSM.—Maciaren and Jones, both heroes of the

settle an old grudge, and decide the winner of 40 Boys, duly
staked on their behalf. The fixture was Honley, 25i miles
on the Brighton rail, and thither, by the nine o'clock trains

" Auld Tom Oliver" having made the necessary arrange-

followed suit, and at the half hour before noon the men
crossed hands, and were quickly at work. Jones, despite s

LONDON AND BRIGHTON RAILWAY
(WANDSWORTH BRANCH).
The Committee assembled this day, and, after a brief re-
capitulation of the evidence which was given.before the Com-
mittee of the House of Commons, they decided that the
preamble was proved, all opposition being withdrawn. There
was, however, one clause in the Bill which was to be sub-
mitted to the consideration of the Earl of Shaftesbury, that
it may be made consistent with the regulation of the House
of Lords.

GROUP LIII.

This Committee re-assembled this morning at twelve
o'cloL:k, in Room 36, Grand Corridor; present, the Hon. E.
Lascelles (in the chair), the Earl of Arundel and Surrey,
Captain Dalrymple, and Mr. R. Clayton.
SBIZZIVS.I3I3MY AND BIRMINGHAM, AND
niraziN GE AM, WOLVZILIIADTP TON, AND
DUDLEY.

Mr HOPE opened the -proceedings of the clay by saying
that he had now to state, on the part of the Shrewsbury and
Birmingham Company, that in pursuance of the intimation
which he had given to the Committee the previous day, they
hivi endeavoured to come to terms with the Opposite party.
Those endeavours had been hitherto fruitless. On the part
of his comp my, he had not the slightest indisposition to
submit to the -Committee the terms which - they were pre-
pared to enter into; but of course those terms could not be
considered until the terms of the other party were laid before
the Committee. He did not feel himself at liberty to call
upon the oryo,ite party to lay their terms before the Com-
mittee, but if they should think fit to produce those terms,
he was perfectly ready to go into a comparison of the two
propositions before the Committee. Of course it would be
left in the hands of the Committee to decide upon the merits
of those propositions.
The Hon. Mr. T.u.noT, Q.C.—There is no indisposition
whatever, Sir, on our part to enter into any arrangement
that shall be just to both parties. We have not the slightest
ohj,•ction t. this matter being candidly laid before the Com-
mit:et, in the way proposed, and my own opinion is, that
unecr the direction of my Learned Friend there will be no
substantial difficulty to the Committee adjusting the points
betweeq us. Thqt is my opinion. But we have to deal with

" pHOTOGRAPHY.—The recent improvements
made by Mr. BEARD in this magical department of
science certainly place it beyond comparison with other methods of
taking portraits. The glaring effect, of which many complained, is
now entirely obviated ; and the ensemble of Mr. Beard's portraits
now presents, in colouring, the appearance of a most exquisitely
finished miniature painting, with an expression and effect which art
can never hope to attain."—lllustrated London News, May 30.
Mr. Beard's Establishments are at 85, King William-street, City
(where application for Licenses should be made) ; 34, Parliament-

TOED.

This was the next case called On.
Sir. T. l'inu.lPS, ln• a brief address, opened the case for
the promoters. The Learned Counsel said that it was a line
of railway which would open up a rich coal and mineral
traffic. After going into the merits of the scheme, the
Learned Geneeman called

Mr. Blythe, civil engineer, who explained to the Com-
mittee the engineering merits. The gradients and curves
were most unexceptionable, with a small exception of where
the junctions took place; but the difficulties at those points
were not more than ordinary difficulties, to be met with on
many lines.

Vie Committee, after the examination of this witness, de-
clared the preamble of the Bill proved.
The clauses were then gone into, and the Bill declared to
have passed.

twelve o'clock.

LANCASTER AND PRESTON.

Mr. BAINES, Q.C., opened the case for this Bill.
A long discussion then ensued between counsel as to the
right of the petitioners against this Bill to be heard. After
which, the proofs of compliance with the resolutions of Mr.
Duncombe were given, and the evidence was proceeded with.
Mr. HOPII, who appeared on the part of the Lancaster and
Carlisle and Preston Junction Railways Amalgamation, ap-
plied to have these two Bills heard together, as the former
had been leased to the latter Company.
A long discussion then followed, which terminated in the
Committee recommending Mr. Hope to withdraw his opposi-
tion to the preamble of the Bill, reserving his right to open
the question on the clause relating to the appointment of
directors.
The Learned Counsel acquiesced in the recommendation of
the Committee, who decided that the preamble of the Bill
was proved.
The clati.es of the Bill were then gone through seriatim
and the Committee adjourned.

Indeed, as it respects both the land and the tenant, It recalls to

The residence is really worthy of a nobleman's occupation. Its

contains five upper chambers, four best bed-rooms. The drawing-
room floor has four elegant rooms. The entrance hall is capital.
This story is used for the bazaar, and there are lots of useful
appendages, and accommodation for twenty clerks, who superintend
this profitable ready money vocation. On the basement is a large
kitchen' a dining-room for the establishment up stairs, and a sleeping
room. There is also a larder, a pantry, good cellars, &c., &c. To
conclude, Mr. It. flatters himself enough is before the moneyed world
to incline them to compete for this thoroughly well-secured estate.
It is net an everyday affair to possess a present clear income of 200
guineas, with a certain addition of 100/. a year, when the present

FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.—THREE MEN KILLED.
—Between two and three o'clock on Saturday afternoon
last, Jackson Wilkinson, of Penrith, labourer, aged twenty-
six years, and Bernard Dean, aged fifteen, were killed in a
most shocking manner on the Lancaster and Carlisle Rail-
way, near Plumpton Hall, about three miles north of Pen-
rith. It appears that Wilkinson was the brakesman of the
waggons which were taken down by the steam-engine from
the ballast-pit near Kettleside, to the filling up of a boggy
place in Plumpton Back-street, and he was conducting a
train of loaded waggons down the incline to the tip end, the
engine having just before been disconnected from them,
when two of the foremost waggons run off the rails and
upset with a most dreadful crash, and the two men
were thrown off with great violence. The waggons ran over
them and literally smashed them to atoms. Wilkinson's
head was nearly split in two, and he was otherwise most
dreadfully crushed. Dean was sitting on one of the fore-
most waggons when the accident happened, and was killed
in a most shocking manner, his head being all but severed
from his body, and his arms and legs smashed to pieces. The
brains of these two unfortunate individuals were scattered on
the spot. The bodies were soon afterwards removed to Mr.
James Heskett's, Plumpton Hall, and afterwards they were
conveyed in a cart to their respective homes at Penrith, to
await the Coroner's inquest. Another man, it was rumoured,
the same afternoon, was killed on the same line between Hes-
ket and Carlisle, but the particulars of whose death, had not
come to the knowledge of our correspondent.
FREE TRADE.—The intelligence of the " Corn Im-
portation Bill" having passed and received the Royal assent,
consequently now forming part and parcel of the law of the
land, was received by the farmers at market on Saturday
with anything but discomfiture. The feeling prevalent
amongst them appeared to be, that as the Bill is now become
law, the best way to treat it is to wait and see its effects
before they express any further opinion with regard to its
operation. Although the accounts of the London markets oi!
Friday were rather discouraging, they had very little effect
upon the wheat market here, as the decline did not, exmr
Is. per quarter, except for the inferior qualities. This
shows that the farmers who have corn to sell no IN 17

being alarmed at the change, and entertajn,, mock for

Mr. BROUGHTON said, that such circumstances were cer-
tainly very alarming. Under the circumstances, he should
require the prisoner to find bail, two sureties for 301. each,
for six months, and unless he could procure such bail, he
would have to remain in prison for that time.
The prisoner was committed accordingly.
SOUTH WARK.

UTTERING FICTITIOUS GWEQ UES. George William Draper,
late clerk in a Government office, was brought before Mr.
Seeker for re •examination, charged with obtaining money by
forged cheques. _

ft appea;ed that on the 4th instant, the prisoner, who
was previously known to a Mr. Wills of Great Charlotte-
street, called on him, and, producing a cheque for 51. is. 6d.
drawn on Messrs. Curries, the bankers, of Lombard-street,
requested he would give him cash for it. Mr. Wills, know-
ing the prisoner to have filled a respectable situation under
Government, obtained change fur the cheque, which was sub-
sequently presented at the above banking-house, the drawer
of which, a fictitious one, having no effects there, it was re-
fused payment. On a subsequent day, the prisoner obtained
from another tradesman cash tbr another cheque of 8/.14.9.6d.,
drawn upon the same bankers, and which turned out, as in
the former case, to be valueless.
A witness was then examined, who stated that he was
clerk to Mr. Gamble, a stock-broker, No. 5, Bank Chain-
bars. On the 3d of June the prisoner called at the office, at
which time Mr. Gamble's cheque-book was lying on the desk.
Witness had ecc.ision to quit the office, leaving the prisoner
there, and during his absence the latter had full op-
portunity of cutting some leaves out of the cheque-book.
The policeman produced Mr. Gamble's cheque-book, with
several of the blank cheques wanting, and on comparing those
uttered by the prisoner, it appeared they corresponded with
those taken from the cheque-book. As other evidence was
wanting to complete the charge against the prisoner, he was
remanded.

MEETING OF THE LEAGUE.

MANCHESTER, JUNE 29.—A very full meeting of the
executive council of the League was held in the
Council-room, in Newall's-buildings, on Saturday after-
noon, George Wilson, Esq., in the chair. Mr. Cobden
was present, and took part in the proceedings. The lead-
ing question brought under the consideration of the
meeting, was the immediate or future dissolution of the
League. Some discussion ensued, and Mr. Cobden,
we understand, expressed himself in favour of an
immediate dissolution. It was contended, however,
by other parties, that it would be injudicious and impo-
litic to break up the association so long as the ob-
ject for which it had been organised, namely, the repeal
of the corn-laws,
had not yet been fully and entirely
accomplished. It ww, therefore, ultimately agreed
that the act of dissolution should be postponed, to be
rendered coeval, perhaps, with the expiry of the corn-
laws in 1849; but that its operations and functions should
at once cease, and that its affairs should be wound up
with as little delay as possible. It was also distinctly
understood that, in case of future emergency, the League-
should be recalled into existence.
It will be recollected that in respect to the quarter of
a million fund, the first payment from the subscriber..
required to be made was an instalment of 20 per cent.
on the respective subscriptions. No further instalment
than this will be called for; but that portion of the sub
scriptions will be absolutely necessary to enable the
League to meet all its monetary engagements before its
operations shall ?.ease.
A meeting of the general council is convened for
Thursday next at the Town-hall, at which all the sub-
scribers of 501. and upwards will have the privilege of
attending. The object of this meeting is to ratify the
proceedings of the executive council at their meeting on
Saturday.
Nothing definite is yet known as to the Cobden testi-
monial. A few gentlemen, in their private capacity,
have met together to discuss the subject, but no plan has
hitherto been determined upon. A testimonial worthy
Mr. Cobden's distinguished services will doubtless be
agreed upon, and the eminent labours and talents em-
barked in the cause of free trade, of Colonel Thompson,
Mr. Villiers, Mr. Bright, and Mr. George Wilson, the
chairman of the League, will be acknowledged by the
presentation of some appropriate reward.
There is a strong public feeling in favour of a popular
demonstratio,:• that all classes of the people may partici.
oliday, in celebration of the event. In
pate of a general
a few days, perhaps, :ometbing may be proposed to
meet the wishes of tha coma,,itY' 1

MONSTER TRAIN.

The Eastern Counties Railway Company had an
excursion train from Yarmouth and Norwich on Mon-
day last. Upon the arrival of the train at Shoreditch
station it consisted of fifty-one carriages—all quite full
—drawn by two of the most powerful engines of the
Company. The number of passengers (exclusive of
children under three years of age, amounting to about
200, who travelled free) was 1,871, making a total of
more than 2,000 persons. The cheapness of the fare,
and the option allowed all persons of returning any day
during the present week, were the inducements that led
so many to avail themselves of it.

FATAL OCCURRENCE NEAR ERlTR.—Yesterday fore-
noon the following loss of life took place :—lt appeared that
a lighterman, named Newman, had charge of a heavily-
laden barge of chalk, and was proceeding up the river for
the purpose of dis Charging his cargo at one of the City lime
wharfs. Having met a young man on shore, the latter asked
Newman to give him a cast up to London, but they had not
proceeded far up the river when the vessel instantly filled
with water, and, having no boat, they were both obliged to
trust to swimming ashore, which was some distance. The
barge, of course, sunk, and Newman and his companion
made for land, which the former was enabled to reach, but
the latter was lost.

FEARFUL DRAY ACClDENT.—Yesterday morning, be-
tween eight and nine o'clock, an accident of a most fearful
character occurred to a young man named Blackie, aged
twenty-nine, living at No. 4, Summer's court, Gray's Inn-
lane. He was running along Queen-street, Lincoln's Inn,
when in turning into Holborn, he suddenly came in contact
with a brewer's dray, was knocked down with great force,
and the wheels passed over his leg. The poor fellow was at
once taken to the King's College Hospital, with not only a
fractured leg, but a broken arm, and other extensive in-
juries. It was considered that amputation must be resorted
to, although but very slight hopes are entertained of his re-
covery.

ALARMING FIRE AT THE BANICSIDE SAW MILLS.—
This morning, shortly after one o'clock, a fire of a very
alarming character broke out upon the extensive range of
premises belonging to Messrs. Blockett and Co., termed the
Bankside Saw Mills. A large pile of timber stacked in the
store-rooms was soon enveloped in flames, and some consi-
derable time having elapsed before water could be obtained
to work the engines, the fire progressed most fearfully, com-
pletely illuminating the whole of the district. At length,
however, water was obtained, with which the firemen set to
work most vigorously, and by half-past two o'clock they suc-
ceeded in extinguishing the fire, which was happily confined
to that portion of the works in which it commenced.
The day before yesterday a fire broke out in the
studio of M. Gaspard Lacroix, the eminent landscape painter,
in the Rue de Chabrol. Before it could be extinguished pic-
tures of the value of from 25,000 tc• 30,000 ft no were do- ,

science certainly place it beyond comparison witb other methods of
taking portraits. The glaring effect, of which many complained, is
now entirely obviated; and the ensemble of Mr. Beard's portraits

THISTLE-GROVE, OLD BROMI"rON.
A COTTAGE VILLA, QUITE UNIQUE, en a MODERATE
SCALE, ENTMONED by its DELIGHTFUL GROUNDS, DIS-
POSED in UNUSUALLY GOOD TASTE, and the VILLA so
CHASTE as to be WELL WORTHY of IMITATION.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS is deputed by the
respectable proprietor to OFFER to PUBLIC COMPETI-
TION, at the Auction Mart, en THURSDAY, the 30th of July, at
Twelve o'clock, a
SINGULARLY ELEGANT MODERN VILLA,

upon a scale not too large.
IT IS A BIJOU OF THE FIRST WATER,
and will not be appreciated save only by a personal review of it,
when it will be confessed it stands alone for the infinity of charms
which surround it. Thistle-grove is at Old Brompton, with ready
access to Kensington-gardens and Hyde-park, and the de-
lightful abode is placed in a little sequestered spot, just removed from
the noise and bustle of the public road. It partakes of the quietude
and repose so essential to good taste and a country life, with a prox-
imity to the metropolis of little more than a short mile. The Villa
displays a proud distinction over all its neighbouring rivals. It is a
solid piece of architecture, based on the Corinthian order, adorned
by a conservatory in capitalLlTTL taste, E
ELY with painSlUted glass. And within
THIS M
comfort is conspicuous in every department, and finished with a
degree of taste that will amply repay a ride from the metropolis.
The tact that prevails is of a peculiar cast ; it disdains the prevailing
order, and takes the lead without any fear from a contemporary ;
indeed, ingenuity may be taxed, for it would be puzzled, to discover
a single want, and Mr. Robins invokes all those who would
POSSESS AN INCOMPARABLE GEM
to seek ocular demonstration, and thus confirm this moderate report. It
stands within an acre (or perhaps less) of ground, laid out in such
good taste, that Repton would have gladly hailed it as his own off-
spring, and the ingenuity of separating the kitchen garden from the
extended and beautiful lawa is a master-piece of of ingenuity. At
the extreme end In
