CHARGES FOR CATTLE ON THE EASTERN

LINES.

On Saturday another meeting of the farmers and
graziers was held at the Norfolk Hotel, Norwich, Mr. J.
Neave, of Wymondham, in the chair, with a view to a
reconsideration of the promises of improvement lstely
made by the Eastern Counties, and for putting them in
a fair way for being carried into tangible results.
The CHAIRMAN said the complaints with regard to the
conveyance of cattle were not confined to the Eastern
Counties line, but extended to nearly all the railways in
the kingdom. In London he heard complaints of the
Great Western that cattle had been upon the line twenty-
one hours, when they ought. to have been up in seven,
and the complaints were general from the farmers send-
ing cattle upon all the other lines.
Mr. GARROD said he had complaints to make. He
sent some stock on Friday week, and should have gone
with them himself but that he dreaded the conveyance,
for they put them (the drovers) into the open carriages.
He believed the cattle went well and safely till they
arrived at Brandon, but there, and again at Cambridge,
they were stopped in the two places for the space of ten
hours, so that they were 19i hours before they arrived

SECOND TRIAL TRIP.

France—From Alcxandria to Marseilles, 152 hours
from Marseilles to London, 77i hours—total, 229
hours.

Germany—From Alexandria to Trieste, 133 hours
from Trieste to London, 1201 hours—total, 2531 hours.

THIRD TRIAL TRIP.
11 France—From Alexandria to Marseilles, and from
Marseilles to London, 246 hours.
Germany-I%mm Alexandria to Trieste, 156 hours ;
from Trieste to London, 97 hours—total, 253 hours.
Totals of the above Trips—France, 1,0251 hours ;
Germany, 999 i hours.
The average gives, for one journey, 2561 hours on
French, and 2494 on the German line; and if the
liminary trips are excluded, 250 1.6 for the first, au
247 5-6 for the second ; if it be further considered that
the Ariel sailed twelve knots an hour, and the Ardent
seldom upwards of ten, and very often only three knots,
which will be taken into consideration by those ac
quainted with the subject, as the object is not a competi-
tion between the two wholly unequal vessels, the
superiority of the German route cannot remain doubtful
another moment; and every German heart will rejoice
that it is a general co-operation for so noble an object
which hoists the standard of Germany and enables it to
float on high in this hard contest, whilst the constantly
increasing force of the well exercised disputants promises
a certain victory.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Dec. 21.

MELTON V. CAMROUX.
This action was brought to recover back the sum of
3581, paid by one, Mr. Thomas Lee ,to the National Loan
Fund Association, in consideration of two annuities, one
immediate and one deferred, to be paid by the society
to him. Mr. Lee shortly after died intestate, and the
present action was brought by the plaintiff, the adminis-
trator to his property, to obtain repayment of the more y,
on the ground that he was of unsound mind at the period
ot entering into the contract.
In support of the plaintiff's case, several witnesses
were called to prove the insanity of fir. Lee. One of
the witnesses (a solicitor) stated that he was of opinion
he was of unsound mind, because he lent several sums
of money to poor persons without sufficient security, at
the rate of 5 per cent. Another stated that he
bad a most voracious appetite, and that he was
at times very desponding, and at others con-
siderably elated by the success of his business.
Several other incidents, such as the purchase of cheap
brooches, and of a waistcoat which did not fit him,
were also brought forward to substantiate the in-
saaity. The medical adviser was called, who stated
that, in his opinion, deceased was affected with pa-
ralysis of the brain, and that it was not competent to
discharge its functions. After his decease no post-
mortem examination had been made. Another medi-
cal gentleman (Dr Goulding Bird) was called, who
stated that he had had considerable experience in
the treatment of persons affected with insanity, and, in
his opinion, deceased was what would be called a lunatic.
He was not mad upon one point, as is the case in per-
sons afflicted with monomania ; he had lost the use
of his reasoning faculties altogether, and it was his
opinion that the disease had for some period been
making insidious advances upon the deceased, and was
not induced by any sudden attack of phrenetis, or af-
fection of the brain.
Mr. WHATELEY, on the part of the defendant, con-
tended that, from all the evidence which bad been laid
before the jury then, no case could possibly be made.
The conduct of the deceased had been precisely that of
a sane person, and with reference to the evidence of the
medical gentlemen, nothing could be gathered which
would at all go to show that the deceased was, at the
time of entering into the agreement with the company, 1
of unsound mind. 1
The substance of the evidence called on the part of the

to.the organisation of the system of government, and
the determination of what relates to the serious
question of our northern frontiers, the Provisional
Government of the nation would find itself required,
until the system has been thus organised, to use its
own discretion on other points. This would be invest-
ing the Provisional Government with a dictatorship,
always odious, however imperious might be the cir-
cumstances rendering it necessary. I, therefore, pro-
pose, that the said assembly should come fully autho-
rised to determine with regard to all branches of the
pnbtic administration, which may be of general interest,
and within the attributes of the legislative power ; the
provisional executive of the nation acting with entire
submission to its determinatiOn.
I consider it, moreover, indispensable that a uniform
rule be established for the regulation of the interior
affairs of the departments ; and that for this purpose
the Constitution of the year 1824 be adopted until the
new Constitutional Code be completed. By this means
we shall avoid that divergency of opinions, at this cri-
tical moment, when uniformity is so much needed ;
the national will which sanctioned that code will have
been consulted, and the executive of the nation will
have a guide to follow, so far as the present eccentric
position of the republic will allow. I submit both mea-
sures to the will of the departments, expressed by the
authorities, who may be established in consequence of
the revolution; proposing, moreover, that the Provisional
Government of the nation should adopt forthwith the
second, as the rule of its conduct, until it be determined
otherwise by the majority of the departments, in the
form already indicated. The slave of public opinion
myself, I shall act in accordance with it, seeking for it
henceforth in the manner In which it may be known and
expressed, and subjecting myself afterwards entirely to
the decisions of the e mstituent assembly, the organ of
the sovereign will of the nation.
Mexicans ! there was once a day, and my heart dilates
with the remembrance, when, leading on the popular
masses and the army to demand the rights of the nation,
you saluted me with the enviable title of soldier of the
people. Allow me again to take it, never more to be
given up, and to devote myself until death to the defence
of the liberty and independence of the Republic.

RAILWAY FARES.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,—On Thursday last I travelled from Manchester
to Preston by the Manchester and Bolton Railway, and
was charged 6s. 9d. first-class express, the ordinary
trains being ss. 6d. I have been in the habit of travel-
ling on this line for some time past, and was never
charged more than 6s. Is it not too bad the public
should be imposed upon just as it suits the convenience
of the directors ? Your paper being an upholder of
honest and straightforward principles, could you not
advocate some general system to be laid down by Go-
vernment to regulate the charges on all railways ? By
so doing you would confer .a benefit on society.
I am, Sir, yours,

Inaritilta int

LONDON, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1846,

General SANTA ANNA has issued a proclamation
unfolding the character of his intended policy, and
nobly have the anticipations of his countrymen been
realised! After narrowly escaping from the domi-
nation of an unpatriotic dictator, and that moreover
at the very moment when their existence as an inde-
pendent principality is threatened by the rapacity of
a neighbouring Government, the Mexicans will, if
they have any regard for their own prosperity,
welcome a document which is prophetic of so many
national advantages. With a Ministry professing the
most ultra-liberal principles, with GOMEZ FARIAS as
Minister of Finance, ALmosru, Minister of War,
RE.Tosr, Minister of Foreign Affairs, PACHECO,
Minister of the Department of Justice, but espe-
cially with ANTONIO LOPEZ DE SANTA ANNA as
President of the Republic, Mexico may now take hope
to herself, that without any European intervention she
may justify the expectations of her most enthusiastic
compatriots, thwart the avaricious machinations of
her invaders, and re-establish the integrity of her
dominions, and the permanent liberality of her con-
stitution. Visionary as this beautiful scheme may
have appeared hitherto, there is now an opportunity
for its successful proseciltion. The Mexicans have
freedom, tranquillity, wealth, and happiness within
their reach, if they will only stretch forth their hand
and seize them. Courage, constancy, and unanimity
are, however, necessary before those glorious boons
can be obtained. An ordeal more terrible than
burning plough-shares must be passed before those
benefits can be effected. Let them, nevertheless, but
take confidence to themselves, and their greatness as
a nation, and their glory as a people, are already and
lastingly accomplished.
Although the Americans have established themselves
so formidably upon the frontiers and although they nave
ectually taken possession of the ports of San
Francisco, Monterey, and San Diego, there is co California,ueh
that is propitious in the character of the recent revo-
lution at Vera Cruz, that the United States may be
not merely repulsed in their subsequent aggressions,
but may have their present unlawful conquests vio-
lently wrested from their grasp. So great is the pro-
bability of such a vicissitude, that the inhabitants of
the towns just mentioned have retreated by a simul-
taneous movement into the interior so intense and
;universal is their antipathy to the enlightened annex-
.. Qrs! But that such an alteration of clrcumstacces
