WATERFORD AND KILKENNY.

A special meeting of the shareholders of this coir,
pany was held yesterday at the London Tavern, to con-
sider the Bill before Parliament for making a deviation
in the line of the Waterford and Limerick Railway, and
to amend the Acts relating thereto. Major General
M'Leod was iu the chair.
The Solicitor of the company read the marginal notes
of the Bill, and stated there was nothing in the measure
at all relating to the Waterford and Kilkenny Company
until they came to the 45th clause. That clause gave
power to the Waterford and Limerick Company to use
and run over a portion of the Waterford and Kilkenny
Railway into Waterford; and there was a provision in
the Bill, that in case the latter company should not
complete the line before the 25th March, 1853, the
Limerick Company were to be allowed to make the line.
The piece of line referred to is three-quarters of a mile
long, and extends from Dankit to Waterford, and is to
be constructed by the Waterford and Kilkenny Com-
pany. The Waterford and Linierick Company are to
have the use of it by paying the former company 5 per
cent. per annum on half the cost of the line. In case
the Waterford and Limerick Company should bo com-
pelled to make it, then the Waterford and Kilkenny
Company would have to pay the other company 5 per
cent. per annum on half the cost of the line and of the
stations for the use of them. The Railway Commissioners
are to be referees in case of dispute.
The Bill was sanctioned, and a vote of thanks closed
the business of the meeting.
LLYNVI VALLEY.

A special meeting of the shareholders of this company
was held yesterday, at the offices, 449, West Strand,
for the purpose of considering the draft of a Bill now
before Parliament, and for confirming the forfeiture of
certain shares. Sir R. Price was in the chair.

vv
The forfeiture of the shares (640 in number) having
been confirmed,
It was stateo that it wv-propositt by the-Bill to re-
'lice the cipifil from 250,000/. to 125,0004 and to con•
solidute the whole of the snares into ono description of
stock, and to make no farther calls on the proprietors;
that for the purpose of settling the dispute with the
South Wales Company, 6,3001. be subscribed to the un-
dertaking; the Llynvi Company should pay them 4,500/.
in bonds, payable is five years, at 4 per cent.; the bor-
rowing powers of the company to be reduced from
66,0001. to 20,000/.
The Bill was sanctioned, and a vote of thanks having
been given to the Chairman, the meeting broke up.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
IPSWICH, JUNE 24.

With a moderate supply of Wheat at market this day, the
trade was steady at last week's rates ; but little disposition,
however, was evinced to buy, and the trade finished somewhat
heavy. Beans, the only spring corn at market, in demand,
and higher prices are given.

HULL, Juxit 24.
Messrs., Taylor and Bright's Circular states:—The ar-
rivals of grain since our last have been rather more liberal
than for some time past, which, accompanied by warmer and
more seasonable weather, has produced rather a pause in our
market. At to-day's market our farmers brought a liberal
quantity of wheat forward, for which an advance was asked,
but former prices only obtainable. For foreign the demand
has rather slackened, unless for the best fresh sorts; warehoused
stocks are not so easy to move, and indeed are held somewhat
above the market, which closes dull at last week's prices. The
nigh prices asked for barley restrict business, or the moderate
arrival would not suffice for the demand. Of oats there have
been tolerable arrivals from abroad, and the market is doll at
about is per quarter decline. Beans and peas in fair demand
at late rates. Only a limited business passing in linseed, but
we do not note prices any lower. Cakes dull, and might pos-
sibly be got at a trifle under our quotations. Nothing doing
in rapeseed ; Cakes are only a dull sale, at somewhat reduced
prices. A good supply of bones, and the close of the season has
caused them again to decline in price.
The following are the present prices of grain :-

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC,

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
In the course of the discussion by the Assembly of
the measure proposed by M. CHAPOT (which was read
a first time) to ensure more effectually the authenticity
of the signatures attached to petitions, M. EMILE DE
GIRARDIN declared that the practice of petitioning
ought to be done away with altogether, as a monarchi-
cal practice not required under a republican Govern-
ment. He then proceeded to describe the manner in
which petitions are got up for the revision of the
Constitution in the following tem:—
" Petitions were every day presented to the Assembly
in favour of the revision of the Constitution, but the
following fact would show what degree of credit ought
to be attached to them. The National had that morning
contained a letter from a correspondent in the Basses
Alpes, declaring that the Prefect had sent to the func-
tionaries under him an order, recommending them
to get petitions signed in favour of the revision of
the Constitution; that order bad proceeded from
the Minister of the Interior. When it was con-
sidered that a similar influence was exercised by
the other Prefects, and when it' was borne in mind
that there were in France 500,000 official employes, he
would ask was there not danger in petitioning, and
ought not the right to be suppressed. He held in his
hand a circular from a sub-prefect, which insisted on
the necessity of all citizens being prepared for the even-
tualities of 1852, and on the propriety. of guarding
against them by making every exertion in favour of the
re-election of L. N. Bonaparte. All well-intentioned
citizens ought to, be prepared, it laid, to rise sponta-
neously and simultaneously to put down any opposition
to the claims of the President. Sneb.a document, said
M. E. de Girardin, was highly objectionable ; first, be-
cause it attributed to the P se popularity which
he,dici-nnt ands
edaltp use ft contemplated a
course altogether in opposition to the enactments of the
Constitution, and the oath taken by the President him-
self. He called the attention of the Minister of the
Interior to the documents which be had quoted, and in
conclusion he must again repeat the opinion, that in a
republic it would be better to suppress the practice of
petitioning altogether."
Tee Sub-Committee on the revision of the Consti-
tution, charged to examine all the petitions to the As-
sembly on that subject, is already far advanced in its
work, and it is thought that it may be terminated by
the end of the week. In the sitting of yesterday the
Committee made known the result of the examination
already completed of 50 departments, beginning with
the Ain, and coming up to the Marne. In these 50
departments there are for the pure and simple revi-
sion 256,664 signatures, crosses, and adhesions legal-
ised and non-legalised; for the revision and the pro-
longation of the powers of the PRESIDENT 184,431 ;
and for the prolongation alone 10,160. The total
number of signatures legalised and non-legalised
affixed to all the petitions received, for revision and
prolongation, and for prolongation alone, amount to
394,427 ; the number of crosses is 23,247, and of ad-
hesions 32,981, making a grand total of 450,655
signatures, crosses, and adhesions affixed to the peti-
tions already received from the first 50 departments by
alphabetical order.
Considering the great exertions made to obtain
signatures by the 500,000 employes who depend for
their subsistence on the Government, the number of
signatures falls far short of what we expected.
The petitiond for the revision of the Electoral Law,
and the restoration of universal suffrage, are even more
numerously signed.
M. LAMARTINE, in the Pays, thus reasons on the
question for revision. He says:—" The question for
us is this—An agitated country if there be revision ;
a dissatisfied country demanding satisfaction from a
revolutionary opposition if there be no revision. We
prefer an agitated to an irritated country, and there-
fore we advocate revision, if the Republic have for its
judge universal suffrage."
Count DE STURMER, who has resided for nearly a
quarter of a century in quality of Austrian internun-
cio at the Ottoman Porte, and whose name is con-
nected with all the great transactions which have
taken place in the Levant during that period, has just
arrived in Paris, from whence he is, it is said, about
to proceed to London.
The Committee on the Avignon Railway Bill held
a long sitting on Monday. After a warm discussion,
the Committee maintained its previous resolutions as
to the propositions which had been presented by dif-
ferent companies. It also ratified its decision as to
the provisional execution of the line from Paris to
Lyons by the State. It afterwards decided, by a
majority of 7 to 5, that the railway from Lyons to
Avignon should be provisionally made at the expense
of the State.

STATISTICS OF PRlSONERS.—Yesterday a return
ordered by the House of Lords was printed, from which it
appears that the number of prisoners tried at the Spring
Assizes in 1850 and 1851 in the counties of Hertford, Essex,
Sussex, Kent, and Surrey, was in the first year 365, and in
the second 383. Singularly enough, in the county of Ketit
the number was the same in each year, 172, being more than
double the number in either of the other counties.

[PRICE SD.

The Committee on the Budget, altering its first
decision relative to the subventions granted to the
Italian Theatre and the Odeon, has determined on
maintaining both.
The Moniteur Algirien of the 20th contains the
following details of the movements of the expedi-
tionary column :
" General Saint Arnaud left Djidjelli on the 15th,
and on the 9th attacked the Beni-Aiwa, and burnt
their villages. After a warm engagement, in which
they were vigorously pursued, with the gmat loss of
some men, the Beni-Aissa wrote to demand the
Amen. On the 10th, the column was bivouacked
in the midst of the Beni.Maad, the strongest of the
tribes to the west of Djidjelli. All the contingents
of the Ouled-Nabet, Ouled-Ali, and the Beni-Marmi
were assembled on this point, crowned the heights,
and occupied the strongest positions. During the
10th and 11 tb, there was continued fighting, the posi-
tions were successively carried, and the village taken
and burnt; the enemy were pursued in every direction,
and lost a great number of men. A brilliant effsir was
accomplished by two companies of the 16th Light In-
fantry. They carried by assault a position which was
defended by the Kabyles, and considered by them as im-
pregnable. While climbing up the entrenchments the
Kabyles kept hurling down large stones on their heads,
but they continued the attack, amidst the applause of
all the column. Some shells, which were well thrown,
and fell amongst the enemy by the artillery caused a
division in favour of the attacking party. The re-
sults of these combats has been the submission of the
Beni-Moad and the Beni-Marmi. On the 12th General
de St. Arnaud, marching on Ziama, met the contingents
of the Ouled-Nabet and the Beni-Segoual, who appeared
disposed to dispute his passage. They were, however,
vigorously attacked and put to flight. In the evening
a deputation from these tribes came to the French camp
to offer their submission, and on the following day the
Beni-Bou-Jussef also made a similar offer. All the
tribes of the western part of the circle of Djidjelli hav-
ing thus submitted, and the country having been or-
ganizzel, the General returned to Djidjelli on the 16th,
and, on the morning of the 18th, was again to take the
field against the Beni-Siar and the Beni-After, towards
the east. In these several combats the loss of the enemy
was ,severe, whilst that of the French has been very
trifling."
At the commencement of business at the Bourse
the speculators showed some hesitation in purchasing.
Towards the close, however, when it was known that
the review in the Champ de Mars by the PRESIDENT had
passed over favourably confidence was restored, and the

Dulwich. It appeared from the evidence that Sa
female
named Theresa Jane Flayer, was housemaid to Mr. Naile,
and from appearances she was suspected of having given
birth to a chili. Search was made, and the body was dis-
covered underneath her bedstead. Sergeant Godfrey, of the
P division, was called, and on opening the parcel he found
the body of a female child recently born. There was a piece
of white ribbon tightly tied round the neck ; the tongue was
protruding from the mouth, and was much swollen. me
female Flayer was aftewards taken into custody to the
workhouse, where she at present remains. Mr. Flower,
surgeon, who had made a post mortent examination of the
body,v, said he had no doubt the child had breathed some
time, and - its death was from .strangulFltion, caused by a
ligature round the neck. The )ury,, unanimously returned a
verdict of " Wilful Murder against Theresa Jane Flayer."
METROPOLIS WATER SUPPLY,—Last evening a
meeting of the inhabitants of the united parishes of St. An-
drew, Holborn, and St. George the Martyr, Queen-square,
took place in the great hall of the workhouse, Grays' Inn-
lane, to consider the propriety of petitioning against the pro-
posed Government Bill for the supply of water to the metro-
polis.
• Mr. Tidmarsh was voted to the chair. It was resolved
to petition against the passing of the proposed Bill, and it
was further resolved that an association should be now es-
tablished to obain a better and purer supply of water ; and the
meeting, having passed a vote of thanks to the chairman,
ar:parated.

But in an increasing population a greater number of
deaths does not necessarily imply an increased rate of
mortality. The population of Loudon is now 2,363,144.
It increased at the rate of 1.551 per cent. annually in
the ten years 1831-1841; at 1.998 per cent. annually in
the ten years 1841-1s51; and P 778 per cent. annually
in the fifty years 1801-51. If the last per tentage (that
of 50 years) be taken to represent the rate of increase
during the current decennial period, and the average
deaths of corresponding weeks be raised in the same
proportion, this average will bcome 945, on which the
968 deaths of last week show an excess of 23.
The present return, compared with that of the pre-
ceding week, exhibits a continued decrease in deaths
arising from disease of the respiratory organs, the num-
ber, which was in the former week 139, having fallen to
112. The two principal diseases in this class are bron-
chitis and pneumonia or inflammation of the lungs, which
were fatal respectively in 39 and 55 cases.
The fatality of this class of diseases has now declined
to near the corrected average; that of the zvmotic or
epidemic class is not above the average, and does not
yet discover a tendency to increase with the advance of
the season. The aggregate of deaths ascribed last week
to epidemics is 205, and out of this number 20 of young
persons and 2 of adults were caused by
small-pox, 39
by measles, 19 by scarlatina, 48 by hooping-cough, sby
croup, 2 by thrush, 35 by typhus, 7 by erysipelas, one
by noma, one by purpura, 16 by diarrhoea, and one by
cholera.

whose head is powdered with tha snows of 80 winters, on
the 22d instant led to the hymeneal altar, a" blooming lase"
of thirty years! On the conclusion of the ceremony, the
venerable bridegroom evinced the youthfulness of his heart
by gaily leading off the dance !—Elgin Courier.

HINTS TO SCOLDING WIVES.—" And I dare say
von have scolded your wife very often, Newman," said I
once. Old Newman looked down, and his wife took up the
reply. " Never to signify—and if he has I deserved it."
" And I dare say, if the truth was told, you, have scolded
him quite as often." " Nay," said the old woman, with a
beauty of kindness which the world cannot excel, " how
can a wife scold her good man who has been working for
her and her little ones all the day? It may be a man is
peevish at times, for it is he who bears the crosses of the
world; but who should make him forget them but his own
wife? And she had best for her own sake,—for nobody
can scold much when the scolding is all on one side."...
Bulwer.

FATAL EFFECTS OF LIGIITNING.—The neighbour-
hood of Yarmouth was visited on Saturday se'nnight by a
severe tempest, which inflicted considerable damage upon a
marsh hill situated at Toft Monks, near the Seven-mile-
house, on the Beccles river. Four young men were eel-pick-
ing in the neighbourhood, two of whom resorted for shelter
to the Seven-mile-house, while the other two took refuge in
the mill. The former were standing with their backs to the
fireplace when the explosion of the cloud tock place. They
were forced violently against each other, but received no in-
jury. On proceeding to the door, they beheld the mill-sails
dashed to pieces, and on entering the mill they discovered
the bodies of their companions apparently lifeless on the
floor, their faces and the greater part of their bodies blackened
by the sulphurous exhalation. One of them soon recovered,
but his companion revived only for a short time, his last
words being that "he felt he must shortly die." He was a
fine powerful young man, by name Edmund Pettingill, about
25 or 26 years of age. He has left a young wife, to whom he
has been united but five or six months. The mill, it ap-
pears, was the property of the family, and is said to be un-
insured.—Essex Herald.

THE CHURCH IN ANGLESEY.—OR Tuesday a
young couple, solicitous to bear the " sweet yoke of matri-
mony," presented themselves at the hymeneal altar of the
parish church of Llandrygarn in Anglesey. To their great
disappointment they touuct that the worthy and respected
minister of the parish had been suddenly called from home,
in consequence of the indisposition of a near relative. Un-
willing that the celebration of their nuptial rite should be
postponed, and being fully conscious of the truth that " hope
deferred maketh the heart sick," some of the friends of the
happy pair suggested that the service of some other clergy-
man should be forthwith requested. This was done, and it
so happened that the next resident clergyman was no other
than the Archdeacon of Anglesey, who immediately con-
sented to do the needful for his reverend brother. Upon his
arrival in church, to his utter dissatisfaction it was ascer-
tained that the mandate produced was a certificate from the
superintendent-registrar of the district ! So disgusted was
this " venerable pillar of the Church" at the idea that he
should be expected to obey the warrant of any laical autho-
rity that he actually refused to marry the parties, alleging
no other reason for disobeying the Act of Parliament, which,
some fifteen years ago the temporal head of the Church by
law established sanctioned with her Royal assent. Should
not these highly beneficed dignitaries be taught to obey the
law, and to conduct themselves in their sphere of office with
propriety, or is it to be wondered at that a " Voice from
Mona" should complain of utter indifference to the interest.
of the Church and its well wishers?—Carnarvon Herald.
DELIBERATE SUICIDE.—PLYMOUTFI, TUESDAY.--
Yesterday morning at eleven o'clock, as the up express
train, which leaves Plymouth at 10.20 A.M., was passing
over the Battery incline of the South Devon Railway, about
a mile and a quarter this side of Totnes, it cut off the head
of a man who appears to have deliberately put himself on
the rail. '['he train was in charge of Marlow, the guard,
and consisted of three carriages only,
drawn by the Strom-
' bolt engine. At the point mentioned there is a consider-
able turn in the road, and a person like the deceased was
on the approach of the train observed in an adjoining field
running towards the line. When first seen on it he was
only 30 yards off, stooping over the left hand rail, apparently
putting something on the plates or picking up something
lions the road. The train was at full speed, and, the
descent being severe, it was impossible for Dickenson, the
driver, to stop it at the moment; he, however, sounded the
whistle, but the man kept his position, and his head was
instantaneously severed from his body. When the train
returned it was found that the head had been flung 60 feet
forward from the point of decapitation; the body was in a
ditch about 40 feet in advance with a left arm and left
leg broken. The mutilated remains were delivered to the
brother of deceased, Mr. Bidlake, a gentleman tarmac,
who resides at Whitley farm, through which the railroad
is constructed. Deceased was about fifty years of age, a
bachelor, possessed of some property; he was subject to
fits, add within the last ten days has been afflicted with
a severe seizure. Just before the approach of the 6.50 up
train in the morning a person resembling
him Was seen at
s
the same spot apparently hying something on the plate
but he suddenly absconded when detected by the
polic'eman
on duty.

thority, that gold has been recently upon good
found in the streams that
rise on the east side of the height of land, and flow into the
west branch of the Penobscot. The bead of these streams is
in the vicinity of the head
waters of the streams that flow
west into the Chaudiere. No doubt exists of the presence
of gold in thestreams that flow into the Moose river, emp-
tying into Aloosehead Lake. The whole country around the
tributaries of the west branch of the Penobscot and Moose
rivers is mountainous, and similar in many respects to the
mining regions in other countries. We do not wish to fa-
vour the excitement on this subject further than the truth
will warrant. One fact is undisputed—that gold has been
for about two years obtained in this region. The discoveries
were deemed of sufficient importance to cause a geological
survey of the Chaudiere river by the Provincial Government
of Canada. Since that survey the Government has quietly
carried on mining operations.—New York Tribune.

the hands and arms ; and he has also been afflicted
with extensive ulceration of the throat, and has
almost totally lost his voice. Both himself and his medical
adviser, after a long attention to his symptoms, are satisfied
that the primary cause of his affliction is the extent to which
the subtle poisons in the wax with which he has worked
have been absorbed into his system through the pores of his
hands, while the disease has been generally strengthened,
and one part of it accounted for, by the occasional applica-
tion of his fingers to his lips while at work. Mr. Bally says
that he has known several cases in which young ladies have
been attacked with partial paralysis of the hands and arms,
after having devoted some time to the practice of modelling;
but at the time he bad no suspicion of the cause. As all
the requisite colours can be obtained from vegetable matter,
and as the use of mineral colouring seems to lead to such
deplorable results, the subject should be carefully investi-
gated by those working with coloured wax.—Manchester
