MESSRS. KINNEARS, SMITHS, AND COMPANY'S
BANKRUPTCY.—At the statutory general meeting of the cre-
ditors, held yesterday, statements of the affairs were produced
by the trustee, and an offer of composition was submitted by
the partners of 1 ls. per pound on the debts, with security,
payable by instalments of I Os. on the Ist December next, and
ls. on the 15th May thereafter. This offer was unanimously
and cordially entertained by the meeting as just and reason-
able ; and another meeting was directed to be called in about
a month hence (previous notice being given), to decide finally
on the offer. It was also agreed to recommend its approval
to absent creditors, with the view of their transmitting their
consents to the trustee.—Edinburgh Courant of Saturday.
THE LATE BISHOP OF BRISTOL.—This Reverend
Prelate was consecrated to the see of Bristol in 1827. His
Lordship was also the possessor of one of the " golden pre-
bends" of Durham. He was the author of the " Key to the
Old Testament," and other theological works, and was of St.
Mary Hall, Oxford. He took his degree of M.A., 1787 ;
B. D., 1799 ; D. D., July 9, 1802. This is the third English
Bishopric which has fallen to the gift of Ministers during the,
last four years. It is considered, we believe, one of the least
wealthy of the sees.

LEEDS AND SELBY RAILWAY.—Great numbers
of persons have during the present week enjoyed the pleasure
of a trip from Leeds to Selby by the railway, and still greater
numbers have been gratified by witnessing the start and the
return of the trains. On Sunday afternoon the persons who
lined the railroad for some miles from Leeds to see the return
from Selby were estimated at upwards of 30,000; indeed, so
great has the inconvenience and danger become by persons
walking on the line of the railway, that the Directors have
deemed it expedient to avail themselves of the power of their
Act of Parliament by causing informations to be laid ag •
st
several persons as trespassers, each of whom are liable to a
penalty of 20s. On the return of the last train from Selby
on Tuesday evening it was suddenly stopped in its pro
through the tunnel at the Leeds end, the
re-
ceived some damage from the falling of a engine scaffold having
which had
been improperly left by some whitewashers. The passengers
were inconvenienced by having•
