CORN WALL.

The half-yearly meeting of this company wa3 held
on Saturday at Truro, Mr. M. Williams, M.P., in
the chair.

The report ste,ted that the works at the Royal
Albert Bridge, with favourable weather, may be
completed during the present year ; while the other
works on the line are in such a state of forwardness
that they may be proceeded with comparatively at
leisure. Tile undertaking is now so far advanced
as to warrant a hope that at the next half-yearly
meeting the time for opening the line from Ply-
mouth to Truro, may be statrd with confidence.

The report of Mr. I. K. Btunel, the engineer,
states 'hat during the last half-year the first or
western span of the Saltash bridge had been floated
into place, landed on the piers, and the raising
commenced. Upon the whole of the rest of the
line little beyond the superstructures of the Lis-
keard viaduct, the timber viaducts between Ply-
mouth and St. German's, and the piling and super-
structure of the St. German's viaduct remains to
be completed. The laying of the permanent way
is now about to be commenced.
Resolutions were passed adopting the report of
the directors and engineer.

(Before Mr. COMMi6BIOIIIr Goulburn.)
IN BE PAGE.

This bankrupt is described as of Hythe, Kent, grocer,

IN BE HILL.

This bankrupt was described as of Quidhampton
Railway, contractor, and to-day was appointed for con-
sideration of his certificate.

The balance-sheet, prepared by Messrs. Butler and
(tannings, commences May 25, and ends December
4, 1857, and debtors to creditors' unsecured 6921. To
creditors who took possession of sundry stores, &c.,
without consent, 2741. To ditto holding security,
112/.95. sd; profits, 117/. ; capital, 2,687/, but which
consist principally of a disputed debt of 2,6001, Credi-
tor—good debts, 173/. ; disputed debts, 2,600/. ; pro-
perty, 1451. Debtor—held by creditors, 250/. ; property
held by creditors on security, 12,1841, The disputed
debt is claimed of Messrs. Hoof and Hills, of Brentwood,
for extra work on the Birmingham, Dudley, and
Wolverhampton Railway, caused by the alteration
of the sections by the Railway Company's engineer.
His Honour referred to the report of the official
assignee, and said the accounts were very unsatisfactory,
and he hardly knew how the bankrupt could have been
allowed to pass his examination—at all events, the con-
sideration of the certificate must be adjourned to see
what the estate would realise.

friends reside at East Cottage, Barking, Essex. It ap-
peare that the deceased by some means ignited her dress,
when she ran screaming to the front of the Lire, where
she met a man, who extinguished the flames. She was
conveyed to the London Hospital, where she was found
to be severely burnt. She was placed under the care of
Mr. Birtwhistle, the house surgeon, who rendered every
assistance, but she expired from the effects of the in
juries. —A. second death occurred from firs to a little boy

RAILWAY IA TELLIGENCE.

NORTH BRITISH.
The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
at Edinburgh, on Tuesday.
The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption of the report
and congratulated the shareholders on the results of
the last half-year's working, and on the steadiness
which their traffielad maintained, notwithstanding
the late commercial crisis, which had in many cases
injuriously affected railway property. The increase
in their receipts bad enabled the directors to add
I per cent. to the former rate of dividend on the
consolidated stock ; and had it not been for the
sudden and severe collapse in commercial affairs in
the latter part of 1857 they would, no doubt, have
been enabled to recommend a dividend of 3, instead
of 22 per cent., as they now- did. Their working
expenses had been slightly increased, but were still
under 39 per cent. of the gross receipts.
The motion was unanimously agre©d to.

GREAT YARMOUTH AND HADDISCOE:
'l he half-yearly meeting this company was held
on Tuesday at Great Yarmouth ; Sir E. H. K.
Lacon in the chair.

The report of the directors stated that Parlia-
mentary sanction was almost certain to be obtained
to an ama gamation of the company with tue East
Suffolk undertaking. The balance-sheet showed
that the expenditure on capital account for the
half-year ending December 31, 1857, had been
11,2791., and 4,4001. remained due to the contrac-
tor, Sir Morton Peto, for the construction of the
line. The balance at the bankers was 5371.
The report was adopted unanimously.

IN BE BROOKS.

This bankrupt was described as of Tichbourne.street,
auctioneer, and to-day was appointed for choice of
assignees. The petitioning creditor alone proved, and
on die application of Mr. Dalton, on behalf of Mr.
Barton, who claimed a debt of 9,0001., the choice was
adjourned to enable him to prove, as he was not satis-
fied that the bankrupt had given up the whole of his
property.

(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.)
coNmermo JURISDICTION - BANKRUPTCY AND INSOL-

VENCY - A HARD CASE-IN RE BLACKWELL.

The bankrupt was described as of Portsmouth, up-
holsterer, and to-day came up fs)r his certificate, which
was unopposed.

Mr. Lucas, for the bankrupt, said the bankrupt had
been in business for thirty years, and had been
going on successfully, until a fire broke out on his
premises, by it he lost considerably, his stock having
increased far beyond the amount of his insurance, and
from other losses, he was obliged to apply to the Insol-
vent Court, and at the same time proceedings were
taken in bankruptcy, and the property was taken by the
official assignee and sold, and the loss on the realisation
was 6401. He submitted this to be a case of unavoidable
loss and misfortune, and the bankrupt had already been
in custody nearly three months.

His Honour granted an immediate certificate of th•
2d class.

A question then arose as to a claim by the broker
of the Insolvent Court for making and keeping pos-
session.

Hip Honour said only one charge could be allowed,
and the parties had better agree.

IN RI ACKHRMAN.

The bankrupt was described as of Beaufort-buildings,
print-seller, and to-day was appointed for choice of
assignee.

From the statement by Mears, Sedgwiok and God-
dard, Mary-street, it appears the debts are about
1,250/. ; property, valuable engravings, portraits, &c.,
valued at 600/. Assignees were chosen.

much experience in these districts, and acquainted
with the people. I have therefore ventured to give
the sanction required, subject to your lordship's
approval.
The destruction of the Nawab's palaces is in pro-
cess. I think it right that not a stone should be
left unturned, in all the residences of the rebellious
chiefs. They are far more guilty than their mis-
guided followers.
A brigade will proceed to-morrow to visit two
very mutinous villages, at a distance of some twenty
miles from Futtehgurh. A garrison has been left
at Mynpoorie, consisting of her Majesty's 38th
Foot, 2 field battery guns, and 200 Wall's Horse.
This garrison will furnish the escorts from Myn-
poorie to Agra so long as such precautions are ne-
cessary.
I have intimated to Col. Fraser, the Chief Cora
missioner, North-West Provinces, that it is not
expedient to leave a small detachment by itself at
Etawah, but that that place should trust rather to
the influence of the Mynpoorie garrison on the one
side, and the last arrangements made by me in the
Cawnpore district on the other. That arrangement
consists of a moveable column which is now being
organised by Brigadier Inglis, at Cawnpore, for the
purpose of marching about the district in aid of the
civil power.
Having reached this point, and the communica-
tion being fairly established between Calcutta and
Agra, I await your lordship's further instructions.

Commander-in-Chief.

LYCEUM TREATRE.

A. new farce, entitled "Double Dummy," was pro-
duced here last night with complete success. The piece
belongs to a class which depends for its effects rather on
broad situations and demonstrative action than novelty
of plot or dovetailing of incident, and in which the
actors have at least as large a share as the author in
eliciting the mirth.of their audience. "Double Dummy"
rests its interest in the jealous squabbles of Mr. Wel-
lington Priddle (Mr. J. L. Toole) and Mrs. Priddle
(Mrs. A. Mellon, late Miss Woolgar). The husband, a
hairdresser and perfumer, and the wife, a milliner and
dressmaker, have one shop, each half of which ice appro-
priated to their respective occupations. The wife's
absence on business excites the husband's jealousy, and
in order to follow her he leaves one of her own work-
women in charge of the shop, transformed into an apparent
"dummy" by the aid of a wig and mantle. No sooner does
the husband go out than au inebriated medical student
enters in the endeavour to escape from the police, and
the wife returning at the moment, is concealed behind
one of her dress dummies. The jealous hairdresser,
having suspicion of the medical student, returns disguised
as a German, one of his own customers, and, learning
that the medical student is biding, conceals himself
in order to watch. Of course it is speedily discovered
that there are no real causes for jealousy on either side ;
and al being amicably arranged the .curtain falls to an
appropriate "tag." Mr. Toole, as usual, spared no
efforts to make the most of his part, and his unflagging
vivacity and grotesque humour were powerful aide to
success. He was well seconded by Mrs. Mellon as the
pert affected dressmaker; and their united efforts brought
the curtain down amid unmixed applause. Mr. Toole,
in announcing the farce for repetition every evening,
stated it to be the joint production of Messrs. Herring-
ton and Yates.

THAMES.

D♦RING RONIIRY IN ♦ DwiLLING-HOUsR.—A well-
known thief named Wm. Hodges, 20, was brought
before Mr. Selfe charged with stealing a coat and a
child's frock, value be., from the dwelling-house of Mr.
George Padfield, of 31, Jubilee-place, Stepney.

Last night about 9 o'clock Mrs. Padfield, the wife of
the prosecutor, was engaged in her domestic duties when
she heard a noise in her parlour, and upon going into
the passage saw the prisoner and two other thieves
leaving the parlour. She endeavoured to stop them,
when the prisoner, who had her husband's coat and
her child's frock in his band, pushed her aside
and fled from the house with his companions.
A cry of " Stop thief" was immediately raised, and
the prisoner was pnrsuod by Mr. Samuel Butler,
of No. 31, Jubilee-place, who soon overtook the
prisoner, awl he then threw away the coat and frock.
Batter seized him by the collar and the prisoner threw
him ou the ground and entered into a violent struggle
with him. A police•constable named Pittance, No. 247,
K, came to the spot and secured the prisoner. The coat
and frock were Soon recovered.

A police-constable said the prisoner was an old
offender and had been imprisoned one month for picking
pockets.

The prisoner first said he was innocent, then that he
wished the case to be sent to the sessions, and, lastly,
said he was guilty.

Mr. Selfe sentenced the prisoner to four months' im-
prisonment and hard labour.

POLICE TELEGRAPEC.—The police committee of the
City of London have resolved, as a preliminary arrange-
ment, to unite a few of its stations by an electric tele-
graph, according to the plan submitted by Mr. Waterlow,
and upen the over-house system, as constructed by Mr.
0. Rowland between Messrs. Waterlow and Sons' estab-
lishments in Birchin-lane and London-wall. Contrary to
the opinions expressed at the time, some seven months
since, the wire then pieced up has not been in the least
affected by its exposure to the smoke, or by any of
these atmospheric influences which it was supposed
would have impaired wires so suspended over large
towns.

off the platform, intending to cross the lines
reach a train, when he was knocked down by another
train which he did not see- He fell with his body
between the rails, and his head and neck upon the rail
next to the platform- The wheels of the engine and
carriages passed over him, literally grinding his head off,
and separating it from his body. The deceased, we
understand, was Jasoes Yates, of Mire-lane, Wigan,
and it is said that he was a collier, an elderly man,
and the father of eight, or nine children.—Mgnacsecr

BELFAST AND COUNTY DOWN.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held

chair.

RAILWAY COMPETITION.
The Warrington and Stockport Railway Cora-
puny, in pursuance of their Act of 1853, having a.
powers to run over and to use the Birkenhead
Company's line from Warrington, through Ches-
ter, to Birkenhead, gave notice last week to that
company that they would commence to run trains
from the Chester station three times each way per
diem, in connexion with their own traffic and the
through trains now running between Liverpool,
Mauchesler, and London. The route into London,
as is well known, is over the Great Northern. On
Monday an engine and carriages of the Stockport
Company, in pursuance of this notice, took their
place in the Chester station for the purpose of
starting to London at a-quarter to nine o'clock in
the morning, the time advertised for the first trains
when the station :uperintendent accompanied by'
two solicitors, warned the driver that he WO
trespassing, and desired him to leave the station.
This he declined to do without his passengers, and
a passenger having entered one of the carriages he
prepared to depart, but then found a rail had 1001
removed, and that the exit from the station 'ice
barred by signals. Subsequently, however, ab°u.
9.50 a.m., the rail haiing been replaced, the arg
nals were withdrawn, and the train was allow;
to dep in for Warrington. The return traln.fr%
Warrington on its arrival was shunted on to a siding,
but ultimately this train was allowed to take 'ta
place at a side platform, and discharge its passers'
gers. Since this time the trains have been allowed
to start regularly, and thus a new through route
from Chester to London has been opened, by which
passengers can make the journey there
21s. first class, and 12s. 6d. second class, three times
per day, in sin hours and a quarter, while the Lon-
don and North-Western and the Great Western
fares remain at the previous sums. and back at

DARING ROBBERY IN A DWELLING-HOUSE.—A well-
known thief named Wm. Hodges, 20, was brought
before Mr. Safe charged with stealing a coat and a
child's frock, value 55., from the dwell►ng-house of Mr.
George Padfield, of 31, Jubilee-place, Stepney.
Last night about 9 o'clock Mrs. Padfield, the wife of
the prosecutor, was engaged in her domestic duties when
she heard a noise in her parlour, and upon going into
the passage saw the prisoner and two other thieves
leaving the parlour. She endeavoured to atop them,
when the prisoner, who had her husband's coat and
her child's frock in his hand, pushed her aside
and fled from the house with his companions.
A cry of " Stop thief" was immediately raised, and
the prisoner was pursued by Mr. Samuel Butler,
of No. 31, Jubilee-place, who sson overtook the
prisoner, and he then threw away the coat and frock.
Butler Wass' him by the collar and the prisoner threw
him on the ground and entered into a violent struggle
with him. A police-constable named Pillance, No. 247,
K, came to the spot and secured the prisoner. The coat
and frock were soon recovered.

A pclice•constable said the prisoner was an old
offender and had been imprisoned one month for picking
pockets.

The prisoner first said he was innocent, then that he
wished the case to be sent to the sessions, and, lastly,
said he was guilty.
Mr. Sells sentenced the prisoner to four months' im-
prisonment and hard labour.

POLICE TELEGRAPH.—The police coreraittee of the
City of London have resolved, as a preliminary arrange-
ment, to unite a few of its stations by an electric tele-
grapb, according to the plan submitted by Mr. Waterlow,
and upon the over•house system, as constructed by Mr.
0. Rowland between Messrs. Waterlow and Sons' estab-
lishments in Birchin-lane and London-wall. Contrary to
the opinions expressed at the time, some seven months
since, the wire then placed up has not been in the limit
affected by its exposure to the smoke, or by any of
those atmospheric inflaences which it was supposed
would have impaired wires so suspended over large
towns.

GENERAL CHANGARNIER.

The hadepandance Beige contains the following
ntter from this distinguished Frenchman

"MALINES, MAROJI, 1, 1858.

"To the Editor.—Sir,—l have just read in your
seoond edition the following telegraphic despatch :
The iloniteur announces that Generals Changarnier
and Bedeau are authorised to return to France.'

" Amid the blessings of peace, France, justly proud of
the glory of her incomparable army, which I have so
many seasons to love, ham no occasion for the services of
one of her most devoted soldiers ; she will therefore
prefer awaiting his return, to enjoy the ineffable happi-
❑ess of seeing him again, until she shall be in the pos-
session of laws protecting the dignity and safety of her
inhabitants.
" I pray you to insert this letter in your next number
and to accept with many thanks, the assurance, &c.,

a
steamer with a m til on the Ist and 15th of every
mouth, returning on the same days of the month
from New York to Hamburg. . The iciamtnonia,
Which should have sailed to-day, is fast in the ice,
and notice has been given that her departure is
deferred until the 15th inst. The vessels intended
for this service are of a very superior class, having
been built in the Clyde after the.model of the
Cunard mail steamers between Liverpool and the
•TJui ed S.a,es, and during last season they per-
formed their voyages with perfect regularity, and
proved to be of great advantage to those engaged
in the American trade of this city, which, although
temporarily checked during the late crisis, is a moat
important branch of its commerce.
_Latterly the intercourse with Sweden has been
almost altogether confined t' grajAiic communi-
cations,
the ice iu the Baltic having put a stop to
the passage by the steamers. No mail has arrived
from thence since that of the 21st ult., and even
with Cop, nhagen there is, fr m ti,e same cause, a
geueial arrear 4.f three or four d.iys ; but this
cannot now be of lung continuance.

Loss OF Two Livzs By FlRE.—Yestez day forenoon
Mr. W. Baker, the coroner, received information respect-
ing the death of Emma Gunnery, aged 6 years, whose
friends reside at East Cottage, Barking, Essex. It ap-
pears that the deceased by some means ignited her dress,
when she ran screaming to the front of the house, where
she met a man, who extinguished the flames. She was
conveyed to the Londo❑ Hospital, where she was found
to be severely burnt. She was placed under the care of
Mr. Birtwhistle, the house surgeon, who rendered every
assistance, but she expired from the effects of the in-
juries. —A. second death occurred from fire to a little boy
❑amed George Rowland, aged 3 years, residing at 3,
New-court, Wapping. The deceased stood upon the
fender to reach a toy from the mantelshelf, when his
frock became ignited, and he was so shockingly burned
that when moved to the hospital he died. The coroner
I will hold inquests on the bodies to-morrow.

PARIS, WEDNESDAY.
The Moniteur publishes an imperial decree, bear-
ing date the 24th of February, to the effect that en
and after the 31st of March next the law of 1829
is abrogated, and the butchers' trade in Paris is
free.

Several groups of persona belonging to the work-
ing classes passed the greater part of the night near
the prison of the Roquette, in the full expectation
that the execution of Orsini and his accomplices
would take place yesterday morning. They re-
turned home disappointed. It is not easy to say
what day ►ill be nawed for the execution. Satur-
day or Monday is spoken of, but nothing positive
is known. The appeal has come bef 're the Court
of Cessation, but tuis w►ll not take long, as it is
not believed that any informality will be detected
in the trial. The strictest orders have been given
to the Governor to suffer no one to approach the
convicts except the chaplain. Orsini has received
permission to write to his family. Gomez, it is
said, will be sent off on Thursday to the bagne at
Brest. There are rumours of the probability of a
coMmutation of punishment for Rudio.
The Moniteur promulgates the New Penal Law
in these few words, _ _

" The Senate dOes not oppose the promulga. ion
of the law relative to measures of general Fecurity."
The troops to be collected at the camp of Chalons
are to be provided with improved muskets, made as
light as possible.
The Minister of Marine has decided that the
French naval squadron stationed off the banks of
Newfoundland is to be composed this year of three
steam ships of war, in place of two, as formerly.
These vessels are the steam corvette the Gasseniti,
which will carry the flag of De la Ronciere de Noury,
who will command the division ; the steam ender
Tenare, and the steam cutter Sesostris.
Admiral Rigault de Genouilly proposes that after
