?HE AMERICAN CRISIS.]

The ninth annual show in connection with the
Guildford Agricultural Association took place on
Tuesday, followed by a dinner at the White Hart
Hotel, under the presidency of Mr. W. E. Elkins,

the Mayor.
Messrs, Briscoe and Cubitt, Onslow and Bovill,
the members for the western division of the county
and the borough, were among the guests, and there
were also present Major Onslow, the Rev. G. Portal,
Messrs. More, Melinda, H. Currie, S. Haydon,

wurray Marshall, H. Marshall, Mr. John Ellis, and
some of the best agriculturists of the county.
Subjoined are the remarks of the principal
opeakers on the American crisis :

The Rev. C. PORTAL (rector of Albury) said that
if war should unhappily arise between the two

should forgive it in the same manner as we pardoned
the grossest insult the moment it was explained that
it was not intended. (Cheers.) There would be a full
opportunity, immediately the remonstra-ce went
forth, for America to repudiate the act o the cap-
tain of the San Jacinto ; but if it should not be
repudiated, we must be prepared to assert our
honour and independence, and to protect ourselves
from insult, from whatever quarter it might
come. He trusted we should hear no more of
not being fully prepared with a most efficient
navy ; and large as the expenditure might be,
and although it might involve some increase of
taxation, or prevent its diminution, he trusted that
the Government and the country would see the
necessity of being fully prepared for protection and
to resent any insult that might be offered. (Cheers.)
What would be the consequences if at this moment
we were unprepared ? Should we have to submit to
insult, and if we did would that avert the calamity
of war? Why if this act had been committed inten-
tionally, and we passed it over, the inevitable result
would be the infliction of still grosser insults, until
at length we were forced into a war against our will.
He therefore commended the Government for de-
manding repudiation of this:act, and trusted that we
would show a bold front and take ample precau-

countries he hoped there would be no more of that
maudlin sentimentality of which we had heard so
much, about the Americans being our blood rela-
tions and that a war with them would be as bad as
a civil war at home. It was all nonsense. America
separated from us a century ago, and since then
the population had been recruited from every coun-
try in the world. In New York there were 200,000
Germans, and those who knew what " points" it
took to establish similarity of breed must be aware
what sort of similarity now existed between us and
that country. (Hear, hear.) He was very much of
the opinion of the writer who said that a Yankee
was as great a parody on an Englishman as a mon-
key was upon the human race.
Mr. BRISCOE, M.P., regretted that his sense of
duty would not permit him to abstain, in accordance
with their general rule, from all allusion to politics,
because he felt that he ought not to refrain from
saying a very few words in reference to a subject
whieh occupied a large share of the public mind
as the state of our relations with America.
Although he had no information beyond what
was derived from the daily prints, he thought
that the British public really was not at the present
moment in a position to exercise a very sound judg-
ment upon what had taken place. We were not yet
sufficiently aware how far the act which agitated
the public mind had been sanctioned by the instruc-
tions given by the Cabinet at Washington; but so
far as could be gathered from the press, it appeared
that the captain of the San Jacinto had distinctly
declared that he had acted entirely on his own re-
sponsibility. He felt that it was a subject of very
grave moment, and that the consequences might be
extremely serious to both countries. He was in-
clined, however, to entertain the hope that no rup-
ture might take place in the friendly relations be-
tween England and America. (Hear, hear.) War
was a calamity in whatever light they viewed A—
politically, commercially, morally, and socially. It
was a gigantic evil, and he should rejoice, and he
was sure every Englishman would rejoice, if with
honour it could be avoided. (Cheers.) Of course the
dignity of the country must be maintained, but he
should be glad to find any means of averting the
calamities of war consistently with the honour of
the nation. (Cheers.) The despatch forwarded to
Washington by Earl Russell contained, it was said,
a firm demand for reparation and for a disavowal of
the act which had justly excited so much indigna-
tion. Some time must elapse before the answer to
that despatch could be received in this country, and
he trusted that in the interval no attempt would
be made to inflame the public mind with a de-
sire for vengeance and retaliation. He hoped
that the Cabinet at Washington would at once
frankly disavow the act which the captain of the
San Jacinto had committed ; and, if so, he was
satisfied that all England would rejoice. (Hear.)
It was supposed that the House of Commons would
meet on the 7th of January, long before whieh
time the answer to the despatch would be re-
ceived. When Parliament met a great responsibility
would rest upon those who had the honour of
a seat in the House of Commons. Deeply sensible
of that responsibility, he should be guided by a sense
of what was duo to the honour of the British flag,
and also of what was required of a highly civilised
and Christian country, and should be disposed to
concur in any measures which would be the means
of averting the great and serious calamity of war.
(Cheers.)

tions for the protection of our Canadian provinces
from the risk of an invasion. All our preparations
would have been ineffectual if we could not have
spared the troops from this country, and therefore
he congratulated England on the possession of that
splendid and gallant body of Volunteers whose loyalty
enabled us to dispense with a large portion of the
regular army. (Cheers.) He trusted that in these
circumstances even his hon. colleague (Mr. Onslow)
would give in his adhesion to the Volunteer move-
ment. (Cheers and a laugh.)
Mr. ONsLow, M.P., said that, with respect to our

foreign policy of nonintervention, happily all
people were agreed. All were satisfied that, so long
as that was adhered to in a spirit of firmness and
decision, our conduct could not be objected to by
foreign Powers; and, so long as we did not refuse
our!moral support to those who were worthy of
sympathy we need not fear the bugbear of invasion
or the horrors of a European war. But there was no
Englishman.in existence who would calmly stand
by and see the Government submit to an inten-
tional insult ; and if there were any nation so

ignorant as to fancy that we would submit to it, it
was our duty to teach them better, and to inform
them that they could not touch us with impunity.
(Cheers.) He trusted that the difficulty with Ame-
rica might be arranged at once; or, if not, that it
might be decided by arbitration. We had very pro-
perly discarded duelling in private life. It was a
most unfashionable amusement, and he trusted that
the great duelling of nations might become equally
unfashionable and equally a remnant of the past.
In these days of foreign troubles we had fortunately
at the head of the Government our justly popular
Hampshire Premier—(cheers)—and he was satisfied
whatever might occur, that there was no man who
could better sustain the dignity and honour of the
country than the noble lord. (Cheers.) He trusted
that Lord Palmerston might be permitted to see his
time out as Prime Minister of this great and pros-
perous country, because be believed that a change
of Government at the present moment of Euro-
pean commotion and American convulsion would
really be a national calamity. Parliament would
shortly be assembled, and when they got there—
whatever might be their political differences—every
tine representative of the people would swamp his
own particular opinions in the one patriotic idea of
maintaining those principles in which consisted the
best safeguard for the interests and welfare of our
common country, (Cheers.)
No other speaker touched upon the question.:

SUSSEX.

HORSHAM, Wednesday.

The annual show of fat stock in connection with
the Horsham market, took place in this town to-
day, when there was an unusually large and cre-
ditable exhibition. In the evening a dinner took
place at the Black Horse, at which Mr. W. R.
Seymour Fitzgerald, M.P., presided. There were
also present Sir Charles Burrell, M.P., Mr. S. Cave,
M.P., Col. Barttelot, M.P., the Hon. H. Wynd-
ham, M.P., Mr. P. Burrell, Mr. C. S. Dickens
Captain Pipon, the Rev. F. Vincent, and a nume-
rous gathering of the gentry and farmers of the
district.

Mr. G. CUBITT, M.P., said that he would gladly
have avoided the subject of America ; but, as he sat
on the opposite side of the house to his hon. friend,
he felt that he must allude to it. He believed that
there had been general satisfaction throughout the
country at the neutral course which we had hitherto
adopted in the American dispute. We had seen
with great regret the States of America separating,
not without bloodshed, but likely to plunge into
the midst of a most sanguinary war. Perhaps it
could hardly be expected that the Northern portion
of that country should be ready to sever the con-
nexion with the Southern when it was looking for-
ward to the dominion of the whole continent, and
when its rise—but of yesterday—to the strength of
a first-rate Power had perhaps made it more ambi-
tions and sanguine as to the future than others,
looking to the peculiar state of its Constitution,
might have been apt to imagine. Although we
might have been prepared for a disturbance in
America, we certainly were not prepared for the vio-
lent animosity against us which had been exhibited
by a portion of Northern States. Although, there-
fore, rather taken by surprise by this recent out-
rage, the feeling of the people of England was
unanimous that those who were under our flag
should be as safe as those who took refuge on our
shores. (Hear, hear.) Mere sentiment or feeling,
however, was not of much avail upon this occa-
sion, because the question was one which must be
settled by those who were learned in international
law. The law officers of the Crown who had been
consulted were of opinion that a breach of inter-
national law had been committed. Satisfaction for
this had been demanded by the British Govern-
ment. He was sure that that had been done in a
temperate and firm manner, and we might hope
that ample satisfaction would be given. Although
we might hope, however, for a happy issue, he
feared that we must be prepared for the worst, and
ho was sure if the honour of England were im-
pugned, that there was not a man in the country
who would not feel that that honour must be vin-
dicated. (Cheers.) He had been delighted to see,
in the discussions which had taken place since the
occurrence, the calm and dignified attitude of the
country ; there had been no empty menace, no un-
worthy boasting, but we had shown that dig-
nified front which a country having ample means
of defence at command was enabled to show. We
had fortunately raised a glorious army of Volun-
teers, so that, if the necessities of warshould require
us to send a large force abroad, the country would
not be left defenceless. At the time of the Indian
rebellion an uneasy feeling prevailed, because we
were obliged to depend upon the loyalty of an ally
for safety;
and. although he trusted that we might
still depend upon that loyalty, it was for a great
country to depend
u iY nothing but its own re-
sources. He was not generally
euerai a supporter of the
Government, but on an occasion like the present,
of the people
however they might differ on such
matters as
church-rates and the representation

all ,
parties
merged into one, and it was the duty a every mem-
ber of Parliament to give them that warm support
which they might need, and which, for the happy
issue out of such a war as might be impend-
mg,
could not be too freely given. (Cheers.)
Mr. BoVILL, M.P., said that when they found a
lawyer addressing them on the all-absorbing sub-
ject of the Trent, they might expect, perhaps, an
opinion ; but he believed that the whole country
had already formed an opinion ; and certainly, after
the learned and able discussions of the daily press,
which had brought forward all the learning,
knowledge, and intelligence of the most intelli-
gent men in the country, they could have no
difficulty in forming an accurate judgment on the
matter. His opinion was that a wrong had been
committed—an outrage and insult to the British
flag. (Cheers.) If that had been done inten-
tionally we were bound to resent it, and the best
course was to resent it instantly. (Cheers.) We
should not in the first instance treat it as an in-
sult, but ask for an explanation and demand the
delivering up of those who had been wrongfully
taken from under •
the British flag. If it were then
explained that the outrage was not intentional we

The usual loyal toasts having been duly honoured,
The CIIAIRMAN, in proposing the health of "The
Army, Navy, and Volunteers," said,—lf this
toast has always been well received in this room,
and always meets with a cordial acceptance in
every assembly of Englishmen when there is every
hope that tranquillity will continue, it will be not
the less well received now, when unfortunately it is
possible that our efforts and exertions will be re-
quired to maintain the honour and dignity of the
country. (Cheers.) lam sure of this—that there
is not a man in this room—there is not indeed a
man in this country, who would not deplore as a
national calamity our being forced to go to war to
assert the rights and honour of the country.
(Hear, hear.) This does not arise from any fear.
of war. Thank God, Old England is strong enough
and she is rich enough to hold her own, be
her enemies who they may. (Cheers.) Nor s it
necessary for us to go to war for glory. Old Eng-
land has enough of that. But I believe that there
is among all classes and all ranks a general wish
to avoid war if it be possible. (Hear, hear.) We
all know the burdens which it imposes upon the
people; we know the interruption which it causes
to our trade and commerce ; we know also the grief
and distress which it sometimes spreads among pri-
vate families around us; and above all I believe
there is in this country a still higher feeling—a
conviction that a war which is not necessary for the
honour and for the interests of the country, a war
instituted merely for ambition or glory, is not only
a political mistake, but is also a national crime.
(Loud cheers.) And therefore lam sure that I speak
the sentiments of all when I say that it 'will be with
the deepest pain that we draw the sword if unhap-
pily we are forced to do so. We love peace, but
there is something that we love even more, and that
is the maintenance of the national honour. (Hear,
and cheers.) And lam sure of this, that, even in
the interests of peace, peace is not best secured by
concessions that are not due concessions, and which
are inconsistent with the honour and dignity of the
country. (Hear, hear.) In private life it is not the
bully who goes through life with respect, neither
is it the man who seeks by concession and by yield-
ing to everybody, and by being put down by every-
body, to pass what he calls a quiet life. (Hear.) It
is, on the contrary, the man who, determined to take
no liberties with others, is equally determined that
no liberties shall be taken with him. (Cheers.) And
what is true in private life is true in politics. Of this
I feel assured—that there is that spirit throughout
the land, that if, unhappily, we ar© driven to war
there will be but one unanimous feeling in every
class, and in every rank of life. We may hope—
and I, for one, do hope—that by sensible concessions
I on the one side, and by a generous forbearance upon
the other, it is possible that peace may be main-
tained ; but if that hope should be falsified, then
I feel there is that spirit in England that will
insure the full and ample vindication of our
rights and honour. (Hear, hear.) Whatever

cumstances, gentlemen, I have no anxiety as to the
result. On Saturday next the first battalion of the
Guards for foreign service sails on board the steam-
ship Persia for the shores of Canada—(cheers)—and
we well know that the flovs -er of our nobility and gene
try are officers of that
corps, and that they are consi-
dered the fortunate and lucky ones who are selected
to vindicate the honour of the country. As to the
navy, I believe there is not one here who has not
read, and has not felt his heart throb as he has

done so, the letters and addresses of the Naval
Reserve force from our outports, who have
voluntarily come forward, and in the simplest
language have said that they are ready at a
moment's notice to shed their heart's blood in de-
fence of their Queen and country. Fortunately
and happily, the Volunteers will not be required
to make any such sacrifice as that ; but I am satis-
fied that whatever sacrifice they are called upon
to make they will cheerfully make, and if every
soldier be removed from these shores the force
of Volunteers, with their courage, their spirit,
and their unanimity, is quite sufficient to in-
sure that the homes and hearths of Englishmen
will be safe as ever. (Cheers.) Therefore,
gentlemen, I know that you will do full honour
to this toast—the Army, Navy, and Volunteers.
(Loud elvers.)

Colonel BAIITTELOT, M.P., in responding, ob-
served that there never was a period in the history
of the country when England was so well prepared
for war as she was at the present moment. At the
same time he did not believe that there was a single
man in the country who was anxious to go to war
for the simple sake of glory or gain. It was, how-
ever, a matter for deep congratulation that a crisis
such as this should have found us so well fitted and
prepared to meet any emergency. (Loud cheers.)

Mr. SANCTUARY proposed " the Health of the
Members for West Sussex."

vinced of the justice of our cause and in the know-
ledge that God defends the right. (Cheers.)

"The Health of the Chairman" was next pro-
posed, to which
Mr. S. FITZGERALD, M.P., in responding, said,—
I shall not follow my hon. friends in the political
questions they have introduced, There are many
subjects upon which I should wish to address you,
but I feel that at this moment there is only one
topic which engrosses the mind and heart of the
country. But I may be permitted to say in refer-
ence to those with whom I have now long acted in
public life:that there is no such easy weapon against
a political opponent as to give him a nickname. It
has often been attempted to attribute to that party
with whom I have the honour to act a wish to sup-
port the cause of despotic Governments in Europe,
and to throw obstacles in the way of liberty and
progress. A more unfounded accusation was never
made against any body of public men. It is impos-
sible for any citizen of this free country, let him
belong to what party he may, not to feel a deep and
generous sympathy for those who are struggling
for the blessings of that free Government which,
thank God, we have so long enjoyed. (Cheers.)
Several other toasts having been honoured, the
proceedings were br might to a close.

Colonel BAILTELOT, M.P., responded. Adverting
to the American question, he expressed a strong
opinion that if the Government had displayed as
bold and determined a front to the Emperor Nicho-
las as they had done in regard to the insult just
offered to the national honour, the Crimean war
would never have taken place. At this moment
there was a black cloud hanging over the
Western horizon, and time alone would show
whether that cloud could be easily dispelled, or
whether we should drift into war. We were now
better prepared for war than we had ever been at
any other period. No one could deny that we had
received many petty insults from America. In the
case of General Harney and others we had received
such provocation that in any other country would
have resulted in war. (Hear, hear.) We had, how-
ever, been tender of the wayward child which had
sprung from us. We had looked upon her as
a nation struggling to establish herself as one
of the great Powers of the world, but she had by
her manner and conduct proved that she was un-
worthy of so high a condition, inasmuch as she had
not yet learned that toleration to others which
alone could insure peace. (Loud cheers.) But the
outrage committed by Commander Wilkes was a
final insult• It was impossible, with any regard to
the honour and dignity of the country, that we
could tamely submit to so gross an insult to our
flag, and unless the Southern Commissioners were
immediately restored we must inevitably drift into
war. He sincerely hoped that the Americans might
see that they were in the wrong, and that they
would acknowledge fairly, honourably, and
honestly that the piratical act of which we had
such good reason to complain was not committed
by the advice of their Government, but that it was
the act of a man too eager to serve his coun-
try. (Cheers.) If they confessed their fault Eng-
land was strong enough to say, am sorry you did
it, but I heartily forgive you now that you have
acknowledged your error." (Cheers.)
Mr. HENTY proposed " the healths of the mem-
bers for the Borough of Shoreham and Rape of
Bramber."

Mr. CAVE, M.P., in acknowledging the toast, said,
—There is only one topic which at this critical
period arrests the attention of the country. Perhaps
some who now hear me may recollect that this time
last year I mentioned the kindly feeling I enter-
tained towards the United States of America—a
feeliing acquired during a visit there some years ago.
But when in America I heard in the South sentiments
expressed towards the North similar to those which
have been so well alluded to in the letters of The
Times correspondent. When I heard the language
indulged in I must confess, though it is now 12
years ago, that I felt the separation of the South

front the North was a mere question of time. There
appeared to be so great an incompatibility of
temper that a divorce sooner or later was inevitable.
Therefore, when the first news of the disruption
came, I regarded it not only as a certainty, but as a
very good thing. (Hear.) I never for one instant re-
garded it as a calamity. Looking to the geographi-
cal features of the country, and to the great differ-
ence of race between the North and the South, I
thought the separation would not only be good for
America, but that it would insure the peace of the
world, because we know that when men have plenty
to do at home they busy themselves much less with
the affairs of their neighbours. (Hear.) At that time
my opinions were not shared by the people of this
country, who looked upon the contest as one be-
tween slavery and freedom, the former represented
by the South and the latter by the North. I re-
member that last session a notice of motion was given
by a friend of mine in the House of Commons asking
the house to recognise the independence of the
South. I was asked to second an amendment to
that motion, and I did so with great readiness,
though the side I took was the contrary; but I
thought the motion was premature, and that not
only should a nation first ask to be recognised be-
fore we proceed to recognise it, but that it should
also show its ability to stand alone. The House of
Commons went much further than I did in think-
ing the motion premature, and they refused to hear
it altogether, as well as a motion in reference to
belligerent rights. They thought the first would
give a reasonable ground of complaint to the
United States, and that the second would give
rise to unpleasant and irritating feelings. That
alone shows ho.,v far from the truth the
accusations of the American people are, that
we have looked on the contest with an eye
of jealous del; ht, and that throughout
we have been animated with hostility to the Fede-
ral Government. (Hear.) Next came the dearth
of cotton in Lancashire, and the fear of the manu-
facturers that their mills would be thrown out of
employment. I mention this because I saw the
other day, at a Reform meeting at Leeds, a remark
made by ono of the speakers that he thought the
commercial classes ought to be trusted with power
rather than the agricultural, because the agricul-
turists were al ways in favour of war, on the ground
that it had a tendency to raise the price of corn.
Now, that charge is as old as the time of the first
revolution, and I think Lord Byron in one of his
poems describes the English farmer as one who was—

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

GREAT WESTERN OF CANADA.

The adjourned half-yearly meeting of this company
was held yesterday at the London Tavern ; Mr. R.
Gill in the chair.

Mr. BAKER, the secretary, having read the notice
of adjournment,
The CHAIRMAN said he was there as a matter of
duty, and, being unwell, Mr. }loyes would act for
him, and give any explanation that might be re-
quired. He then moved that the report be received
and adopted.

Mr. HOYES seconded the motion. He said that,
owing to the indisposition of the chairman, it de-
volved upon him to give any explanations that
might be demanded. The chairman had very pro-
perly stated, on the last occasion of their meeting
that it would be desirable to have Mr. Brydges to
answer any questions they might wish to ask. He
was new present, and would be ready to answer
any questions they wished to put with reference
to the affairs of the company. Before he pro-
ceeded to move any resolution, it was requisite he
should explain that, although the legal meetings of
the company were held in Canada, they could
give full effect to any resolutions of their meet-
ings here if they carried out the machinery for so
doing. They had only to give their proxies to those
who represented their views, and their resolutions
would have full effect in Canada. The Legislature
had thus given the shareholders and directors the
entire control of the company's affairs in Canada.
One of the hon. proprietors, Mr, Dakin, had applied
to the shareholders for proxies to carry out some
measure he had to propose to the meeting. If the
proprietors had confidence in the directors they
would give them their proxies to carry out the re-
solutions the Board would propose, and those who
approved the measure which Mr. Dakin intended
to propose would entrust their proxies to him for
the purpose of being duly represented at the meet-
ing in Canada. The shareholders had the entire con-
trol of the affairs of the company, if they would
only take the trouble to exercise it. He was in-
formed that a few of the shareholders had re-
cently held a meeting, and passed certai❑ resolu-
tions respecting some law proceedings taken by the
Commercial Bank of Canada, and also with regard
to the re-election of directors. The directors at
the last meeting had told the shareholders all they
knew about it. They had told them that a bill
had been filed in Chancery against the Detroit and
Milwaukee Company, and that the Great Western
were made parties to the suit. Since then they
had received a copy of the bill. It did not make
any pecuniary claim on the Great Western of Ca-
nada. The bill prayed that the entire question of
the closing of the mortgage against the Detroit and
Milwaukee Railway Company might happened up,
and that a receiver be appointed. Even it' the
Court of Chancery in Michigan should reopen the
question it would not affect the Great Western of
Canada, as their claim would come in after the first
and second mortgages. Whit the bank would gain
by that proceeding he could not see. The Com-
mercial Bank at one time put forth certain claims
respecting a certain letter that had bean given by
Messrs. Brydges and Reynolds; but the direc-
tors had told the bank that the Great Western
Company had nothing to do with it ; and in con-
sequence they took away their account from the
bank for one or two years, until the latter relin-
quished all claim with regard to that letter. They
would leave the Commercial Bank of Canada to do
what it thought fit, and the Great Western directors
demurred to the thing altogether. Mr. Ross, the
manager of the bank, had a short time ago called
upon them in London, and at the interview not one
word escaped from Mr. Ross, that he had any claim
upon them. The bill was only filed 10 days or a
fortnight before Mr. Brydges left Canada. With
regard to the loan to the Detroit and Milwaukee
Railway Company, it had, so far, an unfortunate
result. The loans to the Detroit and Milwaukee
had been fully approved by the shareholders at the
time, and the directors believed that the completion
of the line would have tended to increase the traffic
considerably. _ _ _

At the request of Mr. HARTRIDGE and Mr.
CANNAN, the bill filed in the Court of Chancery
in Michigan by the Commercial Bank, and a letter
from the solicitors of the company in respect thereto
were read. It appeared that the Commercial
Bank of Canada was the plaintiff and that

Messrs. Brydges, Reynolds, and Becher, the Detroit
and Milwaukee Railway Company, and the Great
Western of Canada were the defendants, the object
being to obtain payment of a certain sum of money,
with interest, advanced by the bank to the Detroit
and Milwaukee Company, and to have a receiver
appointed. The company's solicitors were advised
that the claim of the bank had nothing to do with
the Great Western Company.
Mr. HoYEs said ho would finish his remarks by
stating tnat a deputation fr)m Glasgow had waited
on the board with respect to the working expenses.
He believed at present it was impossible to reduce
them, owing to competition. He would mention
that in 1856 they received 6e. per ton per mile for
goods, and in 1861, owing to the opposition of the
Grand Trunk and Buffalo and Lake Huron Com-

pany, they were compelled to carry at 3c. per ton
per mile. In 1861 three times the traffic of 1856 was
carried by the Grand Trunk and other lines, and in-
stead of recHving 3.2 c. per ton per mile they only re-
ceived 1.7 c. per ton per mile. Every one acquainted
with Canada knew that labour was much dearer
there than here. Their operatives were
the most efficient men in the province, and if they
reduced their wages they would be employed by the
other companies. The negotiations respecting a
fusion of interests with the Grand Trunk and Buf-
halo and Lake Huron Companies had not yet arrived
at maturity, but in the meantime they had given
permission to apply to Parliament for a IA.I giving
the three companies permissive powers to come to a
working arrangement similar to that adopted by the
three companies which now constitute the North-
Eastern Railway Company. They had all agreed
as to the expediency of such a measure, and they
were now endeavouring to bring it into shape.
They were sure that if some such measure wore not
adopted the Grand Trunk would not improve, and
the Great Western affairs might become worse.
They had three propositions to submit, namely, the
adoption of the report and accounts, the re-election
of the directors, and to decide as to the bill of the
committee of investigation. There were some of
the items in that bill that were reasonable, and the
directors would readily pay them, but there were

The shoe now appears to be pinching the manu-
facturers, and we hear muttering from Manchester,
and an earnest desire that we should at once raise
the blockade for the purpose, not of raising, but of
lowering the price of cotton. Now, to me it ~,5 a
strange thing that the Peace party of Man-
chester should actually want to fight in order to
obtain cotton for the country. (Laughter and
cheers.) With regard to the seizure of the
Southern Commissioners on board the Trent, when
the news first reached this country there was such
a thrill felt through every heart as was never felt
before. It showed that in such a cause there was
but one party in the country, with the exception of
that party which is always eager for peace unless
they happen to be on the side of the enemies of this
country, and.a second party which is showing itself
on the other side of the Irish Channel. With regard
to the latter demonstration, I would only remark
that the mover of it is a man who owes his life to
the clemency of the British Government, and that
the very fact that the meeting at Dublin was al-
lowed to take place at all, and every man allowed
to speak treason in safety, gives the lie to every-
thing of which these Irish agitators complain.
(Loud cheers.) For myself, I am a man of peace.
I know perfectly well what war is. I know that
it is a time of increased taxation, of anxiety, and
perhapsof grief to many private families. There-
fore,shouldonly be too happy to find that we can
still live in peace. But anything
is better than a
peace founded upon
only for this reason, thatg

war should take place, I shall rest perfectly con.

others of an enormous amount, and in that view

they were supported by the opinion of competent
persons in such matters. If the shareholders would
order the bill to be paid, the directors would pay
it the following morning. The company had ar-
rived at a serious crisis in its affairs, and it would
require great forbearance on the part of those who
apparently wished to benefit the company by a
change in the direction. The directors had no
desire to retain office unless they had the confidence
of the shareholders. Since he had been connected

with the company they had nothing but a choice
of difficulties, competing lines had been gradually
constructed on the south shore of Lake Erie, which
had seriously affected their traffic on the south, and
when the construction of the Grand Trunk on the
north had been completed, they had competition
from Detroit to Portland. The directors now asked
the proprietors for their confidence; they were
threatened with the evils of a war, and they had
to:conduct difficult and delicate negotiations with
other companies. Mr. Brydges would proceed to
Canada on Saturday next to attend to their affairs
there. It was the wish of the directors to be re-
elected together, or to retire together.
Mr. G. SMITH wished to have an explanation re-
specting the letter of Messrs. Bridges and Reynolds.

Mr. HOYES said the whole matter, so far as he
knew, had been explained at the last meeting. It
was not desirable to go over that question again.
The letter in question was given for a totally diffe-
rent purpose from that which the bank had endea-
voured to attach to it.
A discussion then ensued, in which Mr. Beattie,
Mr. Braithwaite, Mr. Hartridge, and Mr. Cannan
took part.
Mr. BRYDGES said he had no objection to give
any explanation with respect to the letter and the
matters now before the Court of Chancery, provided
the shareholders would undertake the responsi-
bility of so doing. He was rather surprised that
the question should be again raised, after being
disposed of in the report of the committee of
inquiry and at the meeting of the company in
April last. The letter of the 16th of Decem-
ber, 1858, so often referred to, was not intended
to be a guarantee to the bank beyond the amount
of the loan by the company to the Detroit and
Milwaukee Company, and when the advances were
repaid to the bank there was, in fact, an end of the
matter. When the Great Western Company fore-
closed the mortgage against the Detroit and Mil-
waukee Company the bank were very desirous that
the foreclosure should not be completed, and they
applied to the Courts of Michigan for that purpose,
in order to place themselves in a better position as
creditors with regard to the debt due to them by
the Detroit and Milwaukee Company, but he be-
lieved that nothing could be done to place the Corn-
tnercial Bank in the position they wished to attain
in that respect.
Mr. HARTRIDGE was desirous of information re-
specting the proposed traffic arrangement with the
Grand Trunk Company: _ _

Mr. HOYES said they were at present working,
in perfect harmony with the Grand Trunk Com-
pany.

Mr. BRYDGES believed the simple answer at pre-
sent was that no arrangement had been completed
with the other companies.
The CHAIRMAN said the arrangement at pre-
sent rested with Mr. Baring, the chairman of the
Grand Trunk Company.
Mr. BEATTIE considered it one of the greatest
evils to the company that the Canadian Legislature
should have granted to the Grand Trunk Company
powers to make competing lines to theirs. He
would be glad of any arrangement that would de-
stroy that competition.
The report and statement of accounts were then
unanimously adopted.
Mr. BEATTIE, seconded by Mr. HARRIS, proposed
the re-election of the retiring directors and the re-
appointment of two auditors.
Mr. Alderman DAKIN, in the course of an able
speech, proposed an amendment to the effect that
it was the opinion of the meeting that the Board, as
at present constituted, did not possess the confi-
dence of the shareholders, and that Mr. Gill, Mr.
Reynolds, and Mr. Brydges be omitted from the list.
Col. EVELYN seconded the amendment.
On a division the amendment was carried.
Mr. HOYES stated that those who were in favour
of the amendment should give their proxies to Mr.
Alderman Dakin, and those who wished to support
the directors would give their proxies to the secre-
tary of the company. All the proxies would have
to be sent to the office of the company, to be certi-
fied prier to sending them to Canada. It was ex-
plained that if the amendment was carried eight
out of the 11 retiring directors would be re-elected,
and that the 20th inst., at 12 o'clock, would be the
latest time for receiving the proxies at the office
prior to their transmission to Canada. The ad-
journed meeting in Canada would be held on the
Bth Jan. next.
On the motion of Mr. BEATTIE, seconded by Mr.
HARTRIDGE, the bill of the accountants employed
by the Committee of Investigation was referred
back to the Board of Directors, with pcwer to deal
with it as they might deem advisable, or to refer it
to arbitration.
On the motion of Mr. Alderman DAKIN, seconded
by Mr. HARTRIDGE, the proceedings terminated
with a vote of thanks to Mr. Hues.

LAW INTELLIGENCE, Dec. 11.

DIVORCE COURT.

(Before the Judge Ordinary and Common Juries.)

SUCKLING V. SUCKLING AND BAYLDON.

The petitioner, the Rev. Henry Edward Suck-
ling, prayed for a dissolution of his marriage with
Louisa Suckling on the ground of her adultery with
William Bayldon. The respondent and the core
spondent pleaded a denial of the adultery charged
The respondent further alleged that the petitioner
had been guilty of adultery and cruelty, and these
charges were denied by the petitioner.
Dr. Phillimore, Q.C., and Mr. Pritchard appeared
for the petitioner; Dr. Deane, Q.C., and Mr. Mer-
ritt for the respondent; and Dr. Spinks for the co-
respondent.
Di. Phillimore stated that the marriage took
place on the 27th March, 1819, the petitioner being
at the time of the marriage an undergraduate. The
respondent, then a Miss Chambers, was the daugh-
ter of a respectable West India merchant. The
marriage was in all respects a suitable one, and gave
every promise of happiness. There had been several
children, of whom only tWo boys, aged 10 and 8,
were now living. Shortly after the marriage Mr.
Suckling took holy orders, and subsequently became
master of a grammar school at Royston, Yorkshire
Mr. Bayldon was a surgeon practising at Royston
and was the medical attendant of Mr. Suckling's
family. He attended Mrs. Suckling in her confine-
ment, and he made a vile use of the opportunity
given to him by his professional duties to seduce her.
Early in 1857 Mr. Suckling, on his return from a
short visit to London, received information which
aroused his suspicions, and he caused inquiries to be
set on foot, the result of which convined him that
his wife had, for upwards of a year, been carrying
on an adulterous intercourse with Mr. Bayldon.
He had brought an action for crim con., and had
recovered £430 damages and costs.
Several servants who had lived in Mr. and Mrs.
Sucieling,'s house at Royston in 1856-57 were ex-
amined, and described the frequent visits of Mr.
Bayldon to Mrs. Suckling in the years 1855-56.
One of them, Mary Gibson, the cook, stated that one
night, when Mr. Suckling was not at home, Mrs.
Suckling sent her and the other servant to bed
about 9 o'clock; that after she was in bed she heard
a noise, and thinking there were robbers in the house
went down stairs, and saw Mrs. Suckling open the
front door and let in Mr. Bayldon, and go with him
into the drawing room, where there was a sofa.
She had also taken notes from Mrs. Suckling to Mr.
Bayldon, and Mr. Bayldon had once sent her back
with a pill box, wnieh contained nothing but a note
for Mrs. Suckling. During the Christmas holidays
in 1856 Mr. Suckling was absent in London for a
few days. Martha Wigfield was then in the service,
and a Miss Alderson, a governess, was staying in
the house. Miss Alderson generally slept with Mrs.
Suckling when Mr. Suckling was not with her, and
her little boy slept in a crib by the bed side. One
night Miss Alderson slept with Martha Wigfield, the
child was removed into another room, and when the
servants went to bed Mr. Bayldon was supping with
Mrs. Suckling. The next morning the servants who
made Mrs. Suckling's bed observed that it had been
evidently slept in by two persons. It was proved
that efforts had been made to procure the attendance

of Miss Alderson, but without success.
Dr. Deane did not call any witness in support of
the respondent's case, but submitted that the evi-
dence of adultery was so slight that the jury could
not with safety act upon it.
His Lordship summed up, and the jury found a
verdict for the petitioner upon all the issues.
His Lordship then said he should like to know
why the petition had not been presented sooner.
Dr. Phillimoro said that the petitioner was now

a curate in Buckinghamshire. He had derived his
chief means of subsistence from the school, which
was broken up in consequence of his wife's miscon-
duct upon their separation in January, 1857. The
petition was filed in 1860, and the answer was not
put in until March, 1861.
His Lordship granted a decree nisi.
Dr. Spinks submitted, on the authority of " Ling
v. Ling and Croker," (1 Swabey and Tristram, p.
187), that as the co-respondent had paid the damages
and costs in an action of trim. con. he ought not to
be condemned in the costs of the present suit.
_ _ _

His Lordship said he thought the co-respondent
had been guilty of very gross misconduct in avail-
ing himself of his opportunities as a medical man
to debauch Mrs. Suckling. Lord Campbell, in a
subsequent case, had refused to recognize that any
principle was established by the decision in "Ling
v. Ling." He would
.take time to consider the
question of costs.
Br. Deane, for the respondent, moved that the
petitioner might be ordered to make some provision
for her.
His Lordship said that the power of obliging a
husband to provide for a delinquent wife ought to
bo very sparingly exercised. What proportion of
the miserable stipend of a curate was he to settle
upon a profligate who had not brought her husband
a sixpence ? He refused to make the order.
FORMBY v. FORMBY AND AXTENS.

Dr. Doane, Q.C., and Mr. Templer appeared for
the petitioner; Mr. Sergeant Pigott and Mr. Lax-
ton for the respondent.
This was a petition by a husband on the ground
of his wire's adultery. The respondent and the co-
respondent pleaded a denial of the charge.
The petitioner was described as a gentleman of no
occupation, who lived upon an allowance of £BOO a
year from his father, who is a clergyman. He mar-
ried the respondent in June, 1860, having previously
lived with her for about 18 months. Both before
and after the marriage they lived in Portsdown-
road, Maida-hill. The co-respondent, Jas. Edwin
Axtens, was a ridingmaster belonging to some livery
stables in Glocester-crescent. In Oct., 1860, Mrs.
Formby, without her husband's knowledge, went to
take riding lessons at these stables and made Ax-
tens's acquaintance. On Saturday, Nov. 3d, Mr.
Formby went into the country, and at 6 in the
evening Mr. Axtens went to Mrs. Formby's house.
After dining with Mrs. Formby he put one of Mr.
Formby's coats on and went with her to the theatre.
They returned at night and slept together, and from
that time until Nov. 14th, when Mr. Formby re-
turned to town, they occupied the same bed every
night. Mr. Formby on the day of his return put on
his dresscoat and found a scented pocket-handker-
chief in one of the pockets. Knowing that it did
not belong to him he made inquiries, and the result
-was that he taxed his wife with her guilt, that she
did not deny it, and that he immediately withdrew
from cohabitation, made her an allowance, and in-
stituted this suit.
Mary Ann Musgrave, a servant of Mrs. Formby,
Sybella Bishop, a relation of the respondent, and
Mr. Lethbridge, the petitioner's solicitor, were exa-
mined to prove these facts.
There was no defence, and
His Lordship granted a decree nisi, with costs
against the co-respondent.

BOMBAY, BARODA, AND CENTRAL INDIA.
The report of the directors states that, up to the
date of the last advices from the managing agent,
the continuous mileage actually under traffic was
1321 miles, from Doolia to Bulsar, The bridging
of the rapid and difficult Nerbadde, river had been
most successfully accomplished, and the bridge was
opened for traffic in the last week in May. This,
and the other great bridge over the Taptee river,
had withstood, without any damage whatever, the
violence of the great monsoon, which had proved so
destructive in many parts of India, and none of this
company's works had suffered materially from its
effects. The favourable nature of the gradients,
and the efficiency of the rolling etock and other
appliances of the road, had been well tested by a
train of 72 carriages, estimated to weigh 720 tons,
and drawn by a single engine, having carried 4,000
persons from Bulsar to Baroda, 1221 miles, at a
speed of 20 miles per hour. A table in the report
showed the rates in which the number of passen-
gers and tonnage of goods increased with the mile-
age opened. For the week ending Feb. 10 last, 81
miles open, 28,994 passengers were conveyed, and
1,304 tons of goods, being at the rate of 357.95 pas-
sengers per mile, and 16.10 tons of goods. For the
week ending the 23d of June, 109 miles open,
52,303 passengers were conveyed, and 2,491 tons of
goods, being at therate of 47 984 passengers per
mile, and 22.85 tons of goods ; and for the week
ending Oct. 20, 132 miles open, 87,466 passengers
were conveyed, and= 4,803 tons of goods, being at
the rate of 66262 passengers per mile, and 3638
tons of goods. There were now 33 first-class bridges
completed upon the 132 miles of open line, compris-
ing 215 spans of 60 feet, for which both piers and
superstructure were furnished from England. The
remaining 49 bridges to complete the entire line,
comprising 250 spans of GO feet, were now in process
of erection. The aggregate length of first-class bridge
viaduct, when completed,will make about six miles.
The capital account showed that £2,857,067 had
been received, and £2,438,969 expended, leaving a
balance of £51,141 with the Secretary of State for
India, and £366,956 at bankers' and in India. The
interest account from the commencement showed
that £282,077 had been received, and £279,371 paid
to the shareholders, leaving a balance of £2,705.
The revenue account for the half-year ending the
30th of Juno last showed that £15,570 had been
received, and £9,513 expended, leaving a profit on
the working of £6,057.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

WESTERN CIRCUIT.—.WiNcsEsTER, Dec. 11:

(Before Mr. Justice Williams.)
Joseph Whitmore and Joseph Pike, two soldiers,
were indicted for assaulting and robbing Thomas
Clarke of 12s. 6d., and striking and Leafing him, at
Gosport, on the 29th of August.
Mr. Poulden was counsel for the prosecution.
From the statement of Clarke it appeared that he
belonged to the Hants Militia Artillery. On the
29th of August he received his pay, being 30s; it
was paid him in three half-sovereigns. This was
at half-past 4in the afternoon. He paid away ss.
About 7 o'clock in the evening he pent to the Roe-
buck publichouse at Gosport. The prisoners came
in afterwards. Clarke then treated all the company
with drink, and about 10 o'clock, after paying for
the liquor he found he had 128 6d left out of his 30s.
Ho then put this money in a bladder, and put that
into a neckerchief, which he put in his breast inside
his shirt. The prisoners saw him do this. Between
10 and 11 Clarke said he would go out and look for
his comrade. The prisoners said they would show
him where he was. They then all three went out of
the house up the Roebuck passage, and havingcalled
at a house they went into a dark entry, and then one
of the prisoners took Clarke by the collar, and the
other knocked him down and took out the necker-
chief containing his money. They then knocked
him down again and he was insensible. When he
came to himself the prisoners were not there. He
got up and wont into the Roebuck again.
The two prisoners were taken up the same night,
but Clarke could not then identify them, and they
were set at liberty. The next morning Clarke saw
them again, and then said the prisoners were the
men who had robbed him. The prisoners were ab-
sent at roll-call at half-past 9. After the robbery
Pike changed a half sovereign at the Roebuck for
half a pint of gin.
The prisoners bore a good character in the regi-
ment.

ADULTERATED TOBACCO.--The Bradford Inland
Revenue officers have been , making a raid on the premises
of two tobacconists in Bradford, and their foray appears to
have been perfectly successful. In one case, the tobacco-
nist was also a manufacturer, and both at the manufactory
and at the shop, rhubarb leaves were found mixed up with
the tobacco. In the second seizure, 1801 b weight of tobacco
was found, all adulterated, though the adulteration varied
from one to ten per cent. In each case, the fine inflicted
was £75, but the real' offence was cheating her Majesty's
exchequer, and not that of cheating her Majesty's lieges.
The compound might have been considered pure " weed,"
whether adulterated or not. A man who supplied one of
the defendants with the rhubarb leaves was fined £5O, as it
was considered he was a p4rticipator in the frauds on the

The learned Judge, in summing up, said there
were some extraordinary circumstances in the case
which the jury must well consider.
The jury acquitted the prisoners.
Henry Gillings, a soldier, was indicted for a bur-
glary in the house of Adolphus Nicholls, and steal-

revenue.

Throat Affections.—ln all cases of relaxed, inflamed, and

Holloway's upon the glands under the lower jaw. The
curative powers may be accepted without doubt or distrust.
In diphtheria the most marked success has attended its use,
where the disease threatened to run a fatal course in spite
of the ordinary treatment. The convenience of application
of Holloway's Ointment fits it well for application in chil-
dren's ailments, when internal medicines can with diffi-
culty be administered. When pills can be swallowed
without pain or distress, Holloway's should be used simul-
taneously with the Ointment, whose cooling, soothing,
and healing action they augment by their purifying
powers,

Mr. W. M. Cooke was counsel for the prosecution.
It appeared that the prisoner had been a servant
to Lieutenant Nicholls, who was paymaster. The
prisoner knew the money was kept in a particular
drawer. On Friday evening, Oct. 13, Lieutenant
Nicholls left his quarters at Portsea. In the evening
there was £l9 in the drawer. He returned at half-
past 12 at night. He tried his drawer, and it was
locked, but he did not open it that night. The next
day he went to the drawer, and upon opening it he
found that all his money was gone. On the same

evening artother servant of Lieut. Nicholls went
into the rot )m and found the drawer open and the
key in it. .He locked the drawer,, took out the key,
and put it he its place.
The next morning, at 2 o'clock, a policeman went
to the Cris pin publichouse. The prisoner was
there and offered the landlady a £5 note for four
severe:tree. The policeman took the note, and asked
the pr is oner where he got it. He said he had saved
it in India, and had got it from the bank that day.
He took him into custody, and found several sove-
reigns an 1 some silver in the prisoner's mouth. He
was drun:s. The prisoner gave a wrong name and
address. Lieut, Nicholls identified the £5-note as
one that ha d been taken from his drawer.
The learn ed judge said he did not see any case of
burglary, as sitey were apartments in the barracks,
and not a dwehlinghouse.
The prisoner said he had saved up £l4 towards
paying for his discharge—that ho was not in the
habit oic drinkinsT) and this was the only time he had
got drunk.
The learn,",d jittlge summed up.
The jury fotend She prisoner guilty of larceny, and
he was sentene ed to one year's imprisonment with
hard labour.
George Trusslc 'r was indicted for the manslaugh-
ter of Win. Truss ler, at Bramsholt, on the 3d Oct.
Mr. I'oul'den pr, isecuted, and Mr. W. M. Cooke
defended the prism, ter.
'Phis was a very 1 minful case, the prisoner being
the son of the deceas ed. It appeared that the de-
ceased, who had been. a sawyer, but was now an old
man, lived in a cottaget with the prisoner and his
wife and children. The prisoner was also a saw-
yer, and it had beers ers, anged between the prisoner
and a man named -Win dymoor that the latter
should call upon tleo prisoner next morning
Bober seven o'clock
to go to work. Accot
on the morning of the of O, Windymoor
called at the cottage. e prisoner came out and
said the old man was on a q‘ain about going so late
to work. The old may Cie. ne out and said, I
would not work with such ,es you, who could not
come before this time." He turned to go into the
garden. The prisoner's wife sai el, " He's going away
now he thinks he shall hear soneCthiog. The of d
man, who was infirm and passe mato, then said
something very insulting to the oner's wife, and
the prisoner appeared to be highlyito,'-ated in conse-
quence of the observation, and caught up an oven-
peel (a kind of wooden shovel), and, ho. ding it is
both hands, he struck the old man on the h.lad with
it. The old man fell from the effects of the blow.
The prisoner had rushed to his father, who was
six yards off, to strike him. The old man bled at
the nose, ears, and mouth. He never spoke after-
wards, and died in about 12 hours after. The blow
was behind the left ear. The prisoner had been the
mainstay of the house; he had three children bf
his first wife, and had married a second wife last
April. The prisoner helped to carry the old man
into the house, and attended to him with great;
kindness until his death.
The prisoner's mother was called, and said he
had been a good son and supported his father and
mother, as they were not able to work.
Mr. Cooke having addressed the jury for the
prisoner,
The learned Judge said it was a most painful case
to him, as it must be to every one who had heard it.
The deceased had used extremely provoking lan-
guage towards the prisoner's wife ; but no words
could justify a person in having recourse to violence,
therefore, whatever violence was used in this case
was unlawful violence. He could not point out any
fact which would justify a verdict of acquittal.
The jury found the prisoner guilty, but recom-
mended him to mercy on the ground of the provo-
cation the prisoner hed received.
The learned Judge said he felt sincere compas-
sion for the prisoner. He had no doubt he had
undergone inexpressible anguish, and had suffered
a great punishment, but still, under any circum-
stance of provocation, a son could not be justified in
using such a weapon towards his father. The sen-
tence would be one year's imprisonment without
hard labour.
