provided for the capital of the company being kept
distinct from that of the Great Western. The com-
pany were to have the same priority in respect of
dividend as before the amalgamation.
The CHAIRMAN moved a resolution approving the
bill, and it was carried.

SUPPLY.

On the motion for going into committee of supply,
Mr. CHILDERS, as it had been intimated by the Chan-
cellor of tho Exchequer last night that no Government
businiss would be proceeded with at the morning sitting,
moved that the house go into supply to-morrow (Wed-
nesday).
The motion was agreed to, and the sitting was FAA-
pended until six o'clock.

The house resumed at six o'clock, before which
hour the attendance in the house was very great.
The galleries around the house were crowded, and
not a seat was unoccupied in the places usually
occupied by the Peers.

Just before six o'clock Col. Taylor, the Conser-
vative whipper-in, entered the house and was re-
ceived very warmly by the Opposition.
Mr. Bright, very shortly afterwards en-
tered, and was received with cheers, but they
had scarcely subsided when Mr. Disraeli made his
appearance, and immediately the Opposition
cheered the right hon. gentleman most vociferously.
Reports from several committees having been
brought up by Mr. POLLARD URQUHART and Mr.
WALPOLE,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
entered the house, and the cheering with which
he was received was most vehement. The right hon.
gentleman looked very thoughtful and seemed
totally regardless of the cheering of his friends.
After exchanging a few words with Sir G. Grey the
right hon. gentleman left his seat and entered into
a conversation with the Speaker for a short time,
and then resumed his seat, and the usual business
proceeded. •

An HON. MEMBER asked the hon. gentleman
the Under Secretary for India when he proposed
making his statement.
Mr. STANSFELD said he had intended to make
it last Friday, but circumstances had transpired
which would delay it for a short time longer.
TILE MINISTERIAL STATEMENT.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
said, in consequence of the vote the house came to
at an early hour this morning, the Cabinet had
assembled that day to consider the nature and
the condition of that vote and the state the sth
clause of the Reform Bill was left in by the vote.
The consequence of that meeting had been that a
communication had been made to her Majesty,
but he could not state the nature and result of
that communication for some time—for two or
three days at least ; therefore he should move
that the house, at its rising, do adjourn until Mon-
day next. The committees, however, would con-
tinue their sittings ; but with respect to motions by
several hon. members, he hoped they would not,
under the circumstances, be pressed forward.
This announcement was received with cheers by
the Ministerial side of the house.
The motion for the adjournment was then agreed
to, and the ordinary business was then proceeded
with.

The right hon. gentleman shortly afterwards left
the house,
and on his emerging from Wesminster-
hall, arm-in-arm with the Hon. Mr. Kinnaird, a
large crowd assembled in Palace-yard recognised
him, and received him with tremendous cheering.
The crowd followed the right hon. gentleman up
Parliament-street to Downing-street, and as he
entered the official residence the crowd gave another
tremendous parting cheer.

CANTERBURY HALL.—
Mr. W. H. MORTON begs to inform his friends and
the public that he is about to retire from the position of
Deputy-Manager of the Canterbury Hall, and therefore
takes this opportunity to offer them his very sincere and
grateful thanks for the kind and liberal patronage he has
received during the last fourteen years.
At any future time should Mr. W. H. MORTON again ap-
pear before their notice, either as a proprietor or as a
caterer for the amusement of the public, he trusts he will
be able to merit a renewal of their kind support.
In conclusion, Mr. W. H. MORTON also thanks the ladies
and gentlemen who have from-time to time appeared under
his management, and whom he has always found ever
willing to carry out his views.

ROYAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY, SOUTH KEN-
SINGTON.—At the fortnightly meeting of the fellows
of this society, held yesterday, Mr. Sigismund Rucker,
F.L.S., in the chair, the most prominent feature of the
show was a collection of zoned pelargoniums, which were
most striking. Amongst plants in pots were three curious
species of Drosera, from Messrs. Veitch, and Eriogonum
umbellatum, from Mr. Thompson. Amongst cut flowers
were several beautiful orchid; and splendid specimens of
the rare Framontica Californica (on which Mr. Bateman
gave a lecture), a sterculiaceous plant, equally remarkable
for beauty and botanical interest; also a collection of double
Pyretly-a„ from Mr. Salter, which anticipate and alniost
equal tho China asters of autumn. Several now fellows
were elected, and the Buckingham Horticultural and Floral
Society admitted into union.

ROYAL lI.OIITICULT URAL SOCIETY.—His Grace
the Duke of Buccleuch, president of the Royal Hor-
ticultural Society, gave a conversnione last evening in the
conservatory at South Kensington. Their Rayal High-
nesses the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Edinburgh
were present, attended by Colonel Teesdale. Lord Henry
Gordon Lennox, M.P., received their royal highnesses at
the entrance in Exhibition-road, and conducted them to
the conservatory, where they spent some time in contrersa:
tion with Mr. IL Cole, and remained to listen to the strains
of Weippert's band, which performed during the evening.
The conservatory was, as on former occasions, illuminated
from above, but the effect did not seem so brilliant as at
other times, probably owing to the large number and ex-
tent of creeping plants, and the almost universal green
colour of all below the roof. The number of visitors Was
about two thousand, among whom were the Chinese Com-
missioner and several of his suite, osnt

CITY' BROKERS.

The CITY SOLICITOR (Mr. Nelson) reported to the
court that since their last meeting Mr. C. Borth-
wick, whose application to be admitted as a broker
of the city of London without finding the usual
sureties was reported a short time back, and refused
by thig court, had made an application to the Court
of Queen's Bench for a mandamus to compel the
court to admit him, and the application had been
unanimously refused.

Alderman COPELAND moved that the statement
of the solicitor, and a copy of the shorthand writer's
notes of the proceedings, be entered in the journals
of the court, and also printed.
The motion was agreed to.

It may be stated that the rights of the corpora-
tion in this matter appear to be now so well under-
stood, and having received the confirmation of the
Court of Queen's Bench, a great many persons who
have been for a considerable time improperly acting
as brokers, have thought fit to come to the Court of
Aldermen and comply with its regulations.

MIDLAND.

An adjourned Wharncliffe meeting of this com-
pany was held yesterday at Derby ; Mr. W. H.
Hutchinson in the chair.

The CHAIRMAN said the first bill he had to submit
was for enabling the Midland Railway Company to
construct railways for improving the communication
between Ashby-de-la-Zouch and Nuneaton and
other places. The lengtli of the main line, with its
junctions, was about 19 miles, and the length of the
branch to coal-fields about nine miles.

After some discussion, a formal resolution approv-
ing the bill was carried unanimously.
The next was a bill for enabling the company to
construct branch railways and other works, and for
conferring powers on them with reference to the
undertakings of other companies. The share capital
was £350,000, and borrowing powers £116,000.
The bill was approved, as were also bills for autho-
rising the Bedford and Northampton Railway Com-
pany to construct new lines of railway ; the
Halesowen and Bromsgrove branch railways ; to
amaleamate the Lynn and Suttonßridgo"nil the
Spalding and Bourn ; to authorise the Spalding
and Bourn to extend their railway to the Midland
at Saxby ; to authorise the North British Railway
Company to make several railways ; and agree-
ments with the Midland Railway Company as to a
goods station at Carlisle.

IVEL LAND.

The traffic returns on this company's line in
Canada West amounted for the week ending the
18th of May to £791, against £337 for the corre-
sponding week last year, showing an increase of
£454.

IMPERIAL MEXICAN (LIMITED).
The report of the directors states that great pro-
gress had been made in the construction of the works
of the railway. Mr. Samuel, the consulting en-
gineer, had informed them that the earthworks had
been completed on 217 miles of the railway ; that it
was probable from recent despatches that the sec-
tion between the city of Mexico and the junction
with the branch line to Puebla at Apixaco, a distance
of 85 miles, had been completed. The engineer's '
estimate of the traffic receipts on the Mexico and
Puebla division showed a probable minimum of up-
wards of £5O per mile per week, and an estimated
rate of working expenses of 33 1-3 per cent., and
that the additional expenditure to expedite the com-
pletion of this portion of the railway it was expected
would be amply repaid. The electric telegraph was
now completed on 133 miles of the railway. Con-
siderable progress had been made in the erection of
the workshops at Vera Cruz and Orizava. The re-
ceipts from traffic on the Vera Cruz section, 47 miles
in length, for 12 months ending March 21st last,
amounted to £86,703, or an average of £35 9s. 6d.
a mile per week. During the last three months of
the 12—namely, January, February, and March
last—the receipts had been £29,636, or an average
of £4B 10s. Id. per mile per week. Upon the Gua-
dalupe
section, 3 miles in length, the receipts for
passenger traffic in the 12 months amounted to•
£7,647, or an average of £39 6s. 91d. per mile per
week. On the Vera Cruz section the actual amount
of profit had not been finally ascertained, but was
estimated for the year at about £17,000, to be shared
between the company and the contractors. On the
Guadalupe section the profits had amounted to
£4,074, three-fourths of which belonged to the
company, and one-fourth to the contractors.
It was estimated that the local and through
traffic on the Mexico and Puebla division, 1121
miles in length, would average £52 per mile per
week, or more than £303,000 a year, the working
expenses £lOl,OOO, and the net revenue more than
£202,000 a year. The directors felt that their re-
port would have been entirely satisfactory to the
shareholders but for the Mexican Government
having unfortunately allowed their payments to the
company to fall recently into arrears to the extent of
about £220,000, and for the political state of the
Continent, which, with the condition of the money-
markets of London and Paris, had made it impos-
sible for the company to proceed with the arrange-
ments for raising part of the capital on bonds. It
would be necessary to raise immediately by deben-
tures the funds required for the completion of the
upper portion of the railway. Lite expenditure on
railway to the 31st of December last amounted to
£1,534,241.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 20, 1866

The announcement made last evening by Ear
RUSSELL in one House, and by Mr. GLADSTONE in
the other, can have taken no one by surprise. The
exact nature of the communication which the
Ministry have felt it necessary to make to her
Majesty cannot, indeed, be explained to the House
until Monday evening, owing to the Queen's ab-
.sence from London, but there is little doubt as to
its nature and object. Mr. GLADSTONE observed
that they had taken into consideration not only the
vote of the previous night, but the character of the
whole debate and the former divisions on the bill.
The Government has, in fact, been living "from
hand to mouth" for some weeks. Every
night's debate has been tedious and difficult,
every step in the progress of the Reform Bill has
been taken almost under protest. Such a state of
things could not be otherwisd than humiliating to
the Government, who had reason to doubt on every
important division whether they would find them-
selves in the majority or the minority. Their first
victcry of five was so small that many doubted
whether they would continue in office or would go
on with the bill. Mr. GLADSTONE, however, has
more than once plainly intimated that the
two conditions are inseparable, and that he at least
• thinks himself pledged to the country not to
retain his position unless he can carry
the measure. So that there was, in fact, only one
coarse open, and by a retribution, which is cer-
tainly not undeserved, the Reform Bill of 186 G
proves fatal to Earl RUSSELL'S own Cabinet, even
as the Reform Bill of 1859, thanks to Earl RUS-
SELL'S kindly intervention, proved fatal to Lord
DERBY'S Government. The head of the Cabinet,
if he passes into Opposition, will not carry many
regrets with him. On the very point of Reform
itself, which was once his stronghold on the respect
and affection of the people, Lord RUSSELL has
failed to satisfy or conciliate the public. His
(c rest-and-be-thankful" policy sufficed so long as
the personal popularity of Lord PALMERSTON sup-
ported the Administration, and the sagacity and
tact of the late Premier kept a tottering and
not
divided Cabinet together. But the country did
fail to reckon the years of Liberal administration
against the actual results, and .nen were not slow
to notice that, in spite of all professions, our Ad-
miralty affairs were as costly and as unsatisfactory,
and that neither economy nor efficiency
ap_
peared to be the ruling powers. Our Board
of Trade might have done a good deal
more with respect to the condition of our
harbours, and certainly neither the inhabitants of
Queenstown nor of Newhaven will have much cause
to regret the removal of Mr. MILNER GIBSON from
his post. Daunt's Rock may wreck many another
good ship before it moves our present Government
to action. Neither will Captain COLES be inclined
to waste much sorrow upon the abdication of the
Duke of SOMERSET and his subordinates, who may
have the satisfaction of seeing by the American

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ENDANGERING LIVES IN THE STREETS.—A GENTLEMAN
INJURED THROUGH A DRUNKEN DRIVER.—Henry Darling,
a carman, living at 23, Denmark-street, Bloomsbury, and
Joseph Walker, of 24, Dean-street, butcher, wore charged
before Mr. Tyrwhitt with being drank and furiously driv-
ing a horse and van in Regent-street; and John Osborne,
of 26, Bodfordbury, butcher, and Edward Bazley, 7, New-
port-market, smith, worn charged with being drunk and
incapable. _ _

Mead, 126 C, said that on the previous evening, about
7 o'clock, ho was coming down Regent-street, and saw
Darling driving a glass van at a furious rate, Osborne and
Bazley, who wore both drunk, lying on the top. In con-
sequence of a gentlemax coming up and telling him that
Darling had driven over a gentleman, ho went after
the van and stopped it. Darling then went back with 214
C to a doctor inVigo-street, where the gentleman was taken.
Osborne got down and tried to make off, but ho secured
him and gave the van over to a boy to join him at the sta-
tion. Walker then went up to the boy and took the van
from him and drovo off.

In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the constable said tho gon-

tleman who went home was not in attendance. lie was
going at the rate of 10 or 11 miles an hour. There wore a
number of carriages about at the time, and if he had not
stopped it, it would have gone into a carriage near Mr.
Dolby's. He saw Darling strike the horse with the reins-
Walker also drove the horse as fast as ho could.

Woolway, 214 C, proved taking Darling back to the
doctor's shop in Vigo-street, where the injured gentleman
was taken, and afterwards to the station. The gentleman,
who ho believed was not seriously injured, was after-
wards put in a cab and taken home, and would attend if
necessary.

Darling said the horse started off through the reins
touching it.

Walker said that seeing the horse in charge of a boy and
not the police, ho thought ho would drive it home as he
knew Darling.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said he thought the locking up Bazley had
undergone sufficient for him, and he would discharge him.
Osborne would have to pay a fine of 55., as he had been a
little disorderly. Walker would be fined 40s. or a month
for driving off with the van at a fast rate, endangering
life. lie would never pass over any case of the kind in
future. Darling would bo remanded on two bail of £2O
each to see whether the injured person was seriously hurt,
for if he was ho would send the case to the Sessions.

CITY BROKERS.

The CITY SOLICITOR (Mr. Nelson) reported to the
court that since their last meeting Mr. C. Borth-
wick, whose application to be admitted as a broker
of the city of London without finding the usual
sureties was reported a short time back, and refused
by this court, had made an application to de Court
of Queen's Bench for a mandamus to compel the
court to admit him, and the application had been
unanimously refused.

Alderman COPELAND moved that the statement
of the solicitor, and a copy of the shorthand writer's
notes of the proceedings, be entered in the journals
of the court, and also printed.
The motion was agreed to.

It may be stated that the rights of the corpora-
tion in this matter appear to be now so well under-
stood, and having received the confirmation of the
Court of Queen's Bench, a great many persons who
have been for a considerable time improperly acting
as brokers, have thought fit to come to the Court of
Aldermen and comply with its regulations.

The rain,
hourin,w onhich
Monday morning, continued throughout the day, and made
the course very heavy and holding,, and as the weather was
awfully threatening to-day numbers stayed away from the
race ground. The company in the enclosure was perhaps
the smallest over seen at the Summer Meeting, and as the
sky looked dull and leaden, and tho rain kept falling at
intervals, the aspect of affairs may be readily conceived.
There were eight races on the card, and four of these filled
well, but the fields were small, and the results must have
boon terribly disappointing to the lessee and the few local
people that assembled to witness the sport, which calls for
no comment.

LONDON AND NORTH WESTERN. •
The adjourned Wharncliffe meeting of this com-
pany was held yesterday at Euston Station Mr.
J. F. Brown-Westhead in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN said the only business was the
consideration of a bill to authorise the Wolverhamp-
ton and Walsall Railway Company to make devia-
tions from their authorised railway, and to construct
certain short branches. He was happy to say that
the Great Western was associated with them in
arrangements sanctioned by the bill.
Mr. DEAN seconded the motion for the approval
of the bill, and, after a few remarks from Mr. Wil-
liams, it was carried, and the meeting separated.

A COUNTY RATE IN THE CITY.

Aldernian WILSON brought up a report from the
Committee of Visiting Justices of the City of Lon-
don Pauper Lunatic Asylum, which stated they had
expended the £5OO which had been placed at their
disposal by the court for the purpose of making cer-
tain payments in connection with the asylum, and
asking for a further sum of £2,000. It should be
stated that this money will not eventually come out
of the funds of thecorporation, but will be repaid by
the different unions who have sent patients to the
asylum. Alderman Wilson moved that the report be
agreed to.
Alderman COPELAND said he should support the
motion, but he could not help at the same time put-
ting it to his brother magistrates whether, when the
Court of Common Council had just agreed to an
improvement rate, and large sums were required for
other matters, the time had not arrived for making
a county rate in the City of London to defray the
expense of these lunatics, police, and administration
of justice. It had long been his opinion that this
ought to have been done, and a:county rate had been
proposed in quarter sessions many years ago by one
of his brother magistrates, which motion he sup-
ported; but although they were at that time in a mise-
rable minority, he still thought that this was the pro-
per course to be adopted. If a county rate had been
agreed to at the time he mentioned the south side of
the Poultry would have been down long ago, and
many other important improvements would have
been effected. He concluded by stating that if he
could obtain the support of his brother magistrates
he should certainly, at their next meeting in quar-
ter sessions, propose that a county rate should be
levied in the City of London. (Hear, hear.)
Alderman J. C. LAWRENCE expressed his opinion
that, as the Court of Common Council had already
agreed to expend a large sum of money for the pur-
pose of effecting improvements in the City, .it was
hardly the right time to propose to levy a county
rate. If they were to have a county rate, the amount
proposed to be expended by the Court of Common
Council would not be required ; and he thought
that they ought, at all events, to wait until they
saw the effect of the carrying out of the proposition
of the Court of Common Councilbefore they agreed
to levy a county rate.
The motion of Alderman Wilson was then agreed
to, and after the discussion of some business of a
private character, with closed doors, the Court ad-
journed.

MIDLAND.

An adjourned Wharncliffe meeting of this corn-
pup was held yesterday at Derby ; Mr. W. H.
Hutchinson in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN said the first bill he had to submit
was for enabling the Midland Railway Company to
construct railways for improving the communication
between Ashby-de-la-couch and Nuneaton and
other places. The lengtli of the main line, with its
unctions, was about 19 miles, and the length of the
3;anch to coal-fields about nine miles.
After some discussion, a formal resolution approv-
ing the bill was carried unanimously.
Tho next was a bill for enabling the company to
construct branch railways and other works, and for
conferring powers on them with reference to the
undertakings of other companies. The share capital
was £350,000, and borrowing powers £116,000.
The bill was approved, as were also bills for autho-
rising the Bedford and Northampton Railway Com-
pany to construct new lines of railway ; the
Halesowen and Bromsgrove branch railways ; to
amalgamate the Lynn and Sutton Bridge and the
Spalding and Bourn ; to authorise the Spalding
a,-id Bourn to extend their railway to the Midland
at .'3axby ; to authorise the North British Railway
Comvany to make several railways ; and agree-
ments With the Midland Railway Company as to a
goods station at Carlisle.
