SECRETARY (PRO TEM)—Mr. Thomas Phillpotts, jun.
It is proposed that the course of this line shall be from the Wor-
cester station of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Rail-
way to a point near Malvern, where the line will be divided into two
branches ; the one branch proceeding through or near the parish of
Bostbury (from whence there will be a branch to Ledbury) to Here-
ford, where it will run into the station of the Great Western Com-
pany's Monmouth and Hereford Railway, and the projected Hereford
and Shrewsbury Railway.
The other branch will proceed from the point of division near Mal-
vern straight to Gloucester, and will join the Gloucester and Dean
Forest Railway near that city.
This line Will pass rather more than half a mile below Great Mal-
' vern, and not far distant from the town of Upton-on-Severn, both of
which places are at present entirely shut out from the benefits of rail-
way communication.
The country has already been inspected, under the direction of the
engineer, and it is found that there are no engineering difficulties of
a serious character to be overcome ; and indeed the greater portion of
the line presents a course extremely favourable for a railway, the
gradients being very easy.
Near the point of division at Malvern the Hereford line will cross
a portion of the Malvern range by one or more tunnels; but the
whole length of the tunnelling will not much exceed one mile. From
the other side of Malvern to Hereford the surface ofthe country is as
favourable as could be desired.
The Gloucester line, from the point of division to its terminus, will
pass through a country peculiarly favourable, the surface being
throughout nearly one continuous level.
With regard to the immediate local advantages offered by the
proposed railway, it will effect the most direct communication be-
tween the cities of Worcester and Hereford, and Gloucester and
Worcester, and between those cities and the delightful watering place
and favourite summer residence of Great Malvern, to which it will
also give an ease and expeditious access from other popolous but
mere remote districts.
The Important market town of Ledbury, with the rich corn, fruit,
and hoc district around it, will also be brought into closer and more
profitable connexion with the three cities ; and it cannot fail to make
a considerable addition to the traffic between Worcester and the Port
of Gloucester.
The facilities presented by the proposed railway for increasing oust
developing traffic in a more general and national point of view, are
of a very extended character. Joining the Forest of Dean and Mon-
mouth Railways, it will afford a ready means of transit to South
Wales, end by its junction with the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolver-
hampton line, and with the projected line to Port Dynnlaen, it will
give railway communication with the manufacturing and mining
istriets of the north of England—especially of South Staffordshire
and Worcestershire, and also with North Wales and Ireland ; and by
means of the Great Western Railway, which it joins at Gloucester, it
will complete an unbroken broad gauge line from Wolverhampton to
Exeter in the one direction, and from Pembroke to 'Wolverhampton
in the other. It will effect a considerable saving in distance between
the port of Gloucester and Wolverhampton, and all parts of the north ;
it will be the nearest possible route from the extreme west of Eng-
land, and from South Wales, to all places north of Wolverhampton.
The enumeration of the places and districts to he traversed by the
proposed line, and a description of its course, sufficiently indicate that
it may fairly be expected to command a remunerating amount of
traffic.
It will supply to the port of Gloucester important anitliulky articles
of expert, drawn from the mining and manufacturing district of
South Staffordshire and Worcestershire; and will still further deve-
lop the resources of those districts by increased facility of communi-
cation with their natural port. The importance of this branch of the
traffic can scarcely be over-estimated : in one portion of the district
alone—viz., between Wolverhampton and Stourbridge, there are
about 100 blast furnaces in work, producing nearly 500,009 tons of
pig iron annually, and it is admitted that the want of railway facili-
ties have hitherto greatly hindered the development of an important
export trade from this district. The wmks at Droitwich and Stoke
Prior can flirniah any quantity of salt. The carpet manufactories of
Kidderminster, the iron and glass works at Stourbridge, Dudley, and
their populous neighbourhood, will also supply an important amount
of traffic—certainly far beyond that now carried on with the present
insufficient means of transit between those places and the district to
be affected by the proposed line.
The Hereford branch of the line offers to the agriculturists of the
counties of Hereford, Raynor, and Brecon the advantages of cheap
and ready means of access to their principal markets. It will be an
important advantage to them to have their cattle, corn, hops, fruit,
wool. and other produce, speedily and cheaply conveyed to the great
markets of Worcester and Birmingham, and the towns in the centre
of the great manufacturing population of Staffordshire and Worces-
tershire ; the advantages, too, will be mutual, as the line will afford
equal facilities for the conveyance of the mineral and manufacturing
Produce of the north to the rural districts.
The population of the districts affected by the proposed line, rec-
koning from Wolverhampton to Gloucester on the one hand, and from
the same place to Hereford on the other, is not less than 400,000 ; and
from the position of the country traversed, the line must be fed by
all the railways constructed, or to be formed, on either side. There
can, therefore, be no reasonable doubt ofthe Worcester, Hereford,
and Gloucester line commanding a traffic so considera'sle as to yield an
ample remuneration for the requisite Oapital.
The usual power will be taken in the Act of Parliament to allow
int 'rest at 4 per cent. per annum on the deposits, and no subscriber
will be answerable for more than the amount of his deposit of 21. 2c.
per share until the Act is obtained, and then not beyond the amount
of his subscription.
Prospectuses may be had of the respective solicitors, or at the
London Offices of the Company, 449, West Strand, London.

prove that in the campaign Of 1813 he *as hardly superior
to BLUCIIER or tc any third- rate General. That he committed
a grievous blunder at Leipsic no one can deny. He allowed
his army 'to remain in a dangerous position till it was sur-
rounded by twice its numbers; he sacrificed in vain the lives
of his bravest soldiers, and with wanton recklessness of his
own fate or that of the French army, he had made no pre-
paration whatever for a retreat, from which nothing
but a miracle could save him. In this certainly
there was no generalship, there was a foolhardy
daring which he had often tried, and in which
he had often been successful. We know not that the battles
of Bautzen and Lutzen are deserving of great praise, but cer-
tainly they are not entitled to the encomiums passed on them
by some writers. They both led to great slaughter,
and to no results, though they displayed abilities which
appeared sadly wanting at Leipsic. Speaking of
the latter battle, LanAumE, who is not overpartial to
NAPOLEON, says "we may place this battle in the rank of
his finest military combinations, and consider it as the most
brilliant of all those of which the annals of war
preserve the record." This is one view of the
question, and the Reviewer • takes another, which is
equally remote from the truth. In tact, he describes
it as a disgrace to the EMPEROR'S talents. "It presents,"
sap he, "but two very simple things—a gross and dangerous
blunder—ignorance, or rather disregard of the presence of an
enemy—the most culpable rashness, and the most inexcusa-
ble vain confidence ; then, a decided and successful
attempt to remedy that blunder by no extraordi-
nary inspiration of genius, but by doing the one only
thing which a soldier of common sense could do on this
occasion." While these doctors disagree so widely we will
not attempt to settle the difference. The military character of
NAPOLEON L placed far above the reach of minute criticism ;
he accomplished with raw troops wonders in Italy, which in
some respects outshone even the deeds of HANNIBAL; he
raised the French army to the highest pitch of military
glory, and was crushed at last, though not without a giant's
struggle, by the united forces of Europe. To say, however,
that he was great only as a soldier, is contrary to facts,
about which there can be no dispute whatever. Ills admirable
civil administration after France had been broken up by the
madness of countless parties in the great revolution, and more
especially his civic labours during the peace of Amiens, en-
title him to the very highest rank as a statesman and a legis-
lator. The new Code of TAWS was almost entirely his work
—he superintended the investigations of the. Commissioners,
discussed with them the most abstruse and intricate points of
law with a readiness and ability which struck some of the
veteran Solons with more wonder than even 1115 great victo-
ries; he settled the commotions in LI -Vendee, reconciled the
great majority of the royalists to his Government, employed
many of them in the army and in civil offices—in
fact, rendered France more united than she
had ever been under any, even the best of her legitimate
Sovereigns. These, independent of other grand measures of

must not allow England, under the pretext that her flag has
been insulted at the same time as our own, to get before-
hand, and assume the part which belongs exclusively to
France. In a word, we must not allow England to assume a
sovereignty over a land which we maintain to be our own ;
and the best means of. preventing this usurpation is, on the
one hand, to declare to the English Cabinet, that the co-ope-
ration of the English navy at Tamatave was accepted only
with reservation and as a friendly act, involving no conse-
quence of a nattire to Comprtimise our official Nsition, and
on the other hand, to send to Madagascar a large force to
inspire upon the Hovas the respect which our flag is entitled
to. The expedition which we recommend would besides have
the effect of proving and reviving our too long forgotten
rights over the island of Madagascar. We must not Mate=
ourselves with a sterile vengeance for our defeat; we must re-
establish cur fellow-subjects who have been expelled, by
placing them under Sufficient protection; and then the blood
of our troops will not have been shed in vain for their
country."
The Si&fc makes these remarks on the same subject :
" The Ministry is at length convinced of the necessity of
sending a formidable expedition against Tamatave. The
behaviour of the natives since the attack conducted by M.
ROM-UN DEsrossEs has been such as to admit of no hesita-
tion The sovereignty of France has been denied and in-
sulted. We have at the same time to avenge our dignity
and to enforce the execution of treaties. The sovereignty of
France over Tamatave cannot be contested, even were our
claim to the whole island of Madagascar called in question."

The Monitenr publ►shes returns of the Customs' duties for
the month of August last, which amounted to 12,413,503 f.,
being 1,366,959 f. less than during the same month last year.
The amount of customs for the eight months ending Aug. 31,
1845, was 101,203,157 f. (4,000,0001. x, showing a slight
increase, as compared with the previous year. Thus,
reckoning the other four months of the year at the same
rate, the total amount of Customs for" 1845 would
be about 6,000,0004 or less than one third of the Customs
duty in this country. The KING on Friday left the Chateau
at Eu hi his carriage, at three o'clock, attended by the Minis
ters of Justice and Commerce, Generals JACQUEMIXOT, GOUR-
GAUD, and HOUDETOT, the Marquis DE STRADA, and M. DP.
BRAIIA UT, 'orderly officers, and took a drive, visiting Treport
in his way, and returning to the Château at six. In the even-
ing the Minister of the Marine left for Paris. On Saturday, at
three o'clock, after the ceremony of the baptism of the young
Prince of SAYE Concha GonrA, in the Chapel of the
Château, at which the Royal Family were present, the KING,
accompanied by General GounoAvn and his orderly officers,
took an airing in his carriage, and returned to the Château at
six. The Prince and Princese of SALERNO left Eu for Paris
on Saturday.

It was, if we mistake not, one of the charges brought against
Mr. O'CorrNELL, in the monster indictment, that he had en-
deavoured to excite the hatred of the people against the law,
and bring the administration of justice into contempt.
Now, if these be offences, then do we commend the justices
of Rochester, and Sir JOHN MARSHALL, KnE, K.C.H.,
of Gillingham, and all the other parties concerned
in the prosecution of JAMES MELLUM, at Rochester, on the 29th
ult., to the kind and considerate attention of her Mants-ry's At-
torney-General. It would appear that on the morning of that
day, a little boy, named JAMES 3IELLusr, was placed in the
felons' dock of the County Court, at Rochestea, before
W. M. Small, Esq., Chairman, and four other jus-
tices. Now, what does the reader. imagine to have
been the crime, the commission of which had brought
this precocious specimen of juvenile depravity into the felon's
dock of the County Court of Rochester. He was charged
with having knocked down some walnuts from a tree,
the property of Sir JOHN MAnsuALL, Knt., K.C.H., at Gilling-
ham. The fruit was valued at sixpence. The little boy pleaded
guilty. Now, there is something excessively rich in the idea
of five full-grown justices being assembled, in all
the dignity of robes and fur, to investigate
concerning the fate of sixpenny-worth of walnuts,
the property of Captain Sir Jonx MARSHALL, K.C.H.
" whose only object," as the Chairman observed, " in bring-
ing the prisoner before the Court was to protect his orchard
and his fruit, which he has a right to do." True all this " Much
ado about nothing" has a tendency to bring the administra-
tion of justice into contempt ; but up to this period
the whole affair has been so richly ridiculous,
has been such a perfect burlesque, that it is impossible to do
otherwise than treat it as an excellent joke. But now comes
the more serious part of this case. The little boy had pleaded
guilty, and the CHAIRMAN observed that he should
inilict a penalty on him for stealing those walnuts ;
rnd the magistrates, therefore, adjudged the prisoner to pay
the penalty of Is. 6d., the value of the walnuts, together with
the costs, 13s. 6d.—making a total of 15s. The mother of
the boy, on hearing this decision, burst into tears, and said she
could not pay that sum, she having a large family of children,
and nothing to support them except what she worked hard for
as a laundress, and 6s. per week she received from her
husband, who is a marine artilleryman. The Chairman
said that, as she could not pay the money, he must com-
mit the boy to the common gaol for fourteen days,
Does the Chairman know what is the meaning of committing
the boy for fourteen days ? Does Sir Jonx MARSHALL, who
was present the whole time, and who does not appear to have
interfered at all to get the sentence mitigated does
Sir JOHN MARSHALL know the meaning of those words ?
They mean that the boy is to be ruined here and hereafter—
that he is to be destroyed, body and soul—that he is to be
for ever deprived of that by which alone he can ever earn an
honest livelihood—character ; that be is to be cast
loose upon society a tainted, corrupt, immoral, gaol-bird, from • ,
whose touch every honest man will shrink with loathing
-- that he shall be forced to adopt crime as his
calling, to sustain a miserable existence, to be
ended at last amidst the horrors of a penal colony,
or perchance on the scaffold. These must be the inevitable
consequences of exposing a 'boy to the contaminating influ-
ences of a prison. Is Sir J. MARSHALL prepared to inflict such
a punishment for such mere piece of boyish mischief?
Has he never, when a schoolboy, himself been engaged
in robbing an orchard ? Have none of the magis-
trates who sentenced this boy been equally guilty ?
They need not be ashamed to avow it. Wiser
and better men than they have done such
things and have not been ashamed to confess it.
JAMES MELLAM can quote high authority in extenua-
tion of his offence, for Lord ELDON has recorde'.l
of himself that in his schoolboy days there was
no freak in which he took such delight as in robbing an
orchard. The Chairman eventually gave the mother a month
to pay the money in, declaring that if the money was not
then paid the boy must go to gaol. Let us hope that
some charitable person will, in the interval, pay the money,
and save the boy from the utter destruction with which he is
threatened. But whether the money be paid or not, there
can be no doubt but that proceedings such as these are emi-
nently calculated to excite the hatred of the people against
the law, and to bring the administration of justice into
contempt.

Madrid journals of the 2id September have been re
ceived. Several of them are occupied chiefly with at-
tacks on the Ministry, and especially on the Finance
Minister, for his contract with the Bank of San Fer-
nando, which the Heraldo described as ruinous to the
State. These attacks, however, fall harmless on Senor
Mort. He is evidently a man of some energy, and his
perseverance in enforcing the new tax deserves great
praise. No people pay taxes with such a bad grace, or
so unequally, as Spaniards, and it is therefore natural
that great opposition should be made to a plan which
will allow none to escape from their fair share of the
burdens. One of these journals states that the two car-
riages supposed to be presents from the Queen of ENG-
LAND to the Queen of SPAIN, belonged to Mr. BULWER,
the British Ambassador at Madrid. The following in-
telligence appears in the Barcelona journals:—" The
Mediterranean squadron, under the command of Ad-
miral PADSEVAL DESCHENES, composed of the Ocean of
120, Jemmape3 of 100, Inflexible of 90, Diadems of 82,
Alger of 78, Marengo of 78, Triton of 78, and the
steam-frigate Descartes, arrived on the 15th at Palma,
in the Island of Majorca. At the moment the Diadems
brought up in the roadstead, her main top-mast, which
was found to be rotten, came down, and in its fall killed
three sailors.
No business was done on the Madrid Bourse on the
23d. Exchange on London, 371.

We subjoin miscellaneous extracts from the Continental

papers :

" A letter from Athens of the lath gives an account of the ar.
rival of the Duke de Montpensier in that city on the preceding
day. The Prince was received with the usual marks of distinction,
and in the evening the King gave a grand banquet in honour of
his visit. The same letter states that accounts had been received
of an attack by 200 rebels on the fortress of Coron, in the Maine.
The assailants were, however, repulsed.
" After a cruel captivity of five years,' says the Mode, 'the
King and Queen of Spain, recovering a liberty of which they had
been unjustly deprived, have at last been permitted to choose the
place of their exile. The Queen will meet at Rome her brother
King Don Miguel, another victim of revolutions; at Naples her
son, the noble Infant Don Sebastian, who so valiantly fought for the
cause of Spanish legitimacy. The King will End at Genoa the two
Infants, his sons, with whom he parted 12 years ago, to join the
royal army in Spain.'
" A Berne letter of' Sept. 25, says: -' The President of the
Communist Club of Berne, who was a simple workman at one of
the printing-offices, has just been arrested. The club was imme-
diately closed. A formidable coalition of workmen has been
formed at &Acme. The artisans at Argau are drawing up a peti-
tion against the liberty of manufactures, and against the introduz.
tion of' foreign manufactured produce.'
" The Empress of Russia left Berlin on the 23d by the Anhalt
railroad. Early In the morning guards were stationed to prevent
the court-yard of the station and the approaches from being en-
cumbered by the crowd, and none but personages of high distinc-
tion were admitted. 'At 7 o'clock her Imperial Majesty arrived at
the station, accompanied by the King of Prussia and the Princes,
the Grand Duchess Dowager of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, Princess
Frederick of the Netherlands, the Duchess of Dessau, with her
children, and the Duke of Anhalt-Cothen. In a few minutes the
train started with the Empress, accompanied by the King and
Princes, who went with her as far as Cothen, and then returned to
Berlin, where they arrived at four in the afternoon. The King
of' the Netherlands and the Duke of Cambridge were expected at
Berlin, where apartments had been prepared for them, and also at
Potsdam.
" Welearn from Posen that, on the 21st, the members of the
new German Catholic Church in that city celebrated divine wor-
ship publicly for the first time according to their tenets. A dis-
turbance had been expected, but everything passed off quietly.
" The Government of Electoral Hesse has strictly forbidden the
congregation in places of public worship of the members of the new
German Catholic Church, and declared that persons of that sect
must restrict themselves to religious worship in their own houses.
It appears, however, that in Wurtemberg and in Prussia there is
a greater spirit of toleration.
" The Constantinople State Gazette publishes the text of the two
hatti-scheriffs addressed by the Sultan to the Grand Vizier, notify-
ing the dismissal of Rita Pacha and Saofete Pacha. They are
very bile, and make no me...t.r. of the estnaea which have led to
the disgrace of these func:ionaries. The Sultan states simply that
it had become necessary to deprive them of their offices. The two
ex-Ministers live isola:ed in their houses on the Bosphorus; but
Rita is treated with score indulgence than his late colleague. He
is remitted to go tothe mosque, and to take exercise in the coun-
try, while Saofete niche is closely confined to his house."

PRICE. or Gor.n.—The premium on gold at Paris
is 144 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s.
104 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of
25 51; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being
25 60, it follows that gold is 0.35 per cent. dearer in London
than in Paris. By advises from Hamburgh, the pries of
gold is 432 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of
3/. 17s. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange
of 13 84 ; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at
short being 13 9i, it follows that gold is 0.40 per cent.
dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The course of ex-
change at New York on London is 110 per cent. ; and the
par o exchange between England and America being
109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 0.43 per
cent. in favour of England. But the quoted exchange at New
York being for bills at sixty days' sight, the interest must
he added to the above difference.
THE WEATII ER.—Since Sunday last the weather
has been beautifully fine, dry and bracing during the day,
with slight frosts at night, and is consequently most favour-
able for those who have not yet succeeded in getting in their
crops. The change has taken place at a most critical time,
for a continuance of last week's wet would assuredly have
placed in jeopardy a large portion of the crops in the less ad-
vanced districts. All danger however is, we would hope, now
at an end.—Cork Examiner.

The extension of railway accommodation in Wales will he
in all probability greatly accelerated by the adoption by the
Legislature of one or more of the projects that is now, and has
been for some time, before the public. The range of country
to be travel:A by the Great North and South Wales and
Worcester Railway, is exceedingly favorable, em-
bracing a large population (a most material in-
gredient in estimating probable returns for the
future), and abounding, too, with agricultural as well
as With mineral sources of profit, all of which are of the most
legitimate character. At the present time the great internal
resources of this part of the principality is wholly unpro-
vided with a railway or other convenient inland communi•••
atidn. tt is a fact, too, of considerable importance that thd
owners and lessees of the rich and important mines and
quarries of North Wales desire a cheaper and.
better communication with the central and southern
districts of the principality. The payment of the
first instalment has been completed in the most prompt man-
lier, acid there can be little doubt but that the Provisional
Committee will make out a sound case for the concession of
the line by the Imperial Parliament.

SECONDARIES.-(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Secondary POTTER.)

WELLS V. SIIAW.
i, This was an action to recover the sum of 101. 4s. 4d., for
medicines supplied.
Mr. THOMAS appeared for the plaintiff, and contended that
his client was entitled to payment for medicines supplied in-
cidental to an operation.
The question raised in defence was, that the production of
the diploma was not proof, but that the beadle of the company
ought to be cnlled to certify the seal of the company.
The Learned SECONDARY said that rule had been avoided
by law—the common seal of a cornimpy was admitted.
Mr. THOMAS said that the learned Gentleman must have
lien asleep i uring the passing of the Act.
Verdict for the plaintiff:

CLERKEN WELL.-(THIS DAY.)

feet high, was charged with stealing a jug and one penny
from a child, five years old, the daughter cf Mr. Langmore.
a respectable tradesman in Woodbridge-street, ClerkenwelL.
The offence is a very aggravated one. The girl had beers
sent by its mother fur half a pint of porter, and on the road
to a public-Lowe the prisoner stopped her, and pointing to
the residence of a gentleman, requested her to go there and
ask for " Sarah," at the same moment taking limn the child
the jug and the money. When she returned the prisoner
had left, and from the description given by the child of the

The constable in answer to Mr. Combe, said that he had
reason to believe be could bring forward several other charges
of felony against the- prisoner, who consequently was re-
manded.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
(THIS DAY.)
Thomas Smith, atont 40 years of age, wearing a very long
beard, whose appearance denoted the very extreme of human:
wretchedness and defilement, and clad in filthy tatters
swarming with vermin, was charged with vagrancy.
Police-constable C No. 127, stated that between four and
five o'clock yesterday afternoon he saw the prisoner int
ficcadilly, sitting on the step of a door; a crowd of persona
were around him, attracted by
.his singular appearance, and
many, compassionating the miserable condition he was in,
gave him money. Witness, knowing hint to be an old
offender, took him into custody.
. _

Mr. liannwicsE—Then the prisoner is a known beggar?
Constable—Yes, sir; he has been about the town for years;
he does not ask for anything, but places himself in the most
public thoroughfares to excite charity, and generally reaps
a pretty good harvest, which he speedily dissipates in
drunkenness.

Mr. HAnDwroc—He will find that he is not to subsist by
public mendicancy. To the prifoner—How many times have
you been sent to prison ? Prisoner—About once as I can re-
collect ; but as I may be mistaken I'll :ay I'm quite sure its
not more than twice.

Mr. HARDWICK asked if such was the ccse ?—Wilks, the
gaoler, said he had Lean committed from thi3 Court dozens
of times.

Mr. HARDWICK asked the prisoner if he had any home or
habita•ion ?—Prisoner said he lived in Fitld-lane, Holborn,
and worked for his living when he cauld get anything tio do.
Ile was committee fon ten does. On his reception at the
prison his hair win ue CUL snort, anu flak int; r+•-• •

apparel will be supplied to him.
Rosina Bird, a strong, gaunt female, was charged with
committing a most violent assault on Mary Anne Miller,
whereby her life was endangered.
It appeared that between three and four o'clock this morn-

ing, a-quarrel having ensued between them at Hyde Park-
corner, the prisoner attacked Miller in a savage and furious
manner, tore her c'othes from off her, and, after inflicting
several severe kicks about the lower part a her person,
seized her head between her hands, and beat it violently
and for many, times, first against the iron railings cf the park,
and then the flag- stones of the foot-pavement. The police
coming up terminated the affray, and the prisoner having
been taken to the station-house, it was found ir,:eessary to
procure surgical aid for Miller, who was unable to ai:eild this
morning. _ _

The Prisoner was remanded until Weclacsday next.

Two Houns' TROTTING MATC2i —Yesterday the
match between Mr. Williams's bay horse and Mr. Wentley's
black horse, came off over five miles of the Godstone road.
The terms of the match were, that the horses should start
together in harness, and continue on the road for two hours,
and the horse traTelling the greatest distance within fae
stipulated time to be entitled to the stakes, which were 204
a side; the drivers of the horses to be permittdd to proceed
and stop at their discretion during the contest, and the
agreement was, that in case of breaking from a trot, the
horse to be immediately pulled in and again to cover the
ground not fairly trotted. The horses went away at a
steady pace, and turned the first five miles in 24 minutes, the
black leading at 200 yards; they concluded the next fives
miles in 22% minutes, and were pulled in and refreshed, and
then went on the road. They kept together the next flve
miles, and occupied 23 minutes in covering the distance.
They were then brought up to the starting mark ; after com
pleting 20 miles in 91% minutes they -were allowed 15
minutes breathing time, and then started for the remaking
distance, quite fresh, and the great struggle now commenced.
The bay horse took the lead, and performed this five miles in
2114 minutes, and at its completion was 300 yards in ad-
vance. They then rattled away, and the black horse was
brought up, and was soon in advance, and at the expiration
of the two hours was 400 yards ahead, having covered 261 A
miles in the specified time. The bay horse accomplished 2614
the 15 minutes stoppage exclusive.
ROWING MATCH ON THE MERSEY.—The scullere
contest for SC/. a side between Henry Clasper, of Newcastle-,
upon-Tyne, and Thomas Carrol. of Liverpool, came off last
Monday, on the Mersey, but was, altogether, a very hollow
race. The match had created considerable excitement at
Liverpool and Newcastle, and partially so in London; anti
from the reputation the men had acquired as scullere, a very
first-rate contest had been expected. Though both men had
been for a length of time in active training, they had each by
turns been very unwell. Clasper, however, bad recovered
by the day of rowing, but his opponent was still suffering
much. The distance to be rowed was five miles, and betting,
which had stood for some time at two to of e on Clasper, was
materially increased in odds as the time approached for start-
ing. The start, which took place in the presence of an im-
mense assemblage, was very evenly taken, but immediately
afterwards Clasper drew ahead, and went rapidly away from
his opponent. In the first two miles Clasper was a third of a
mile in advance, and in three miles was half a mile ahead.
He then relaxed, and, taking it gently, won by two minutes.
Carrol never stood a shadow of a chance.
PRESENTATION OF THE NEW SHERIFFS.—The new
Sheriffs of the City of London and county of Middlesex,
William J; Chaplin, Esq., and J. Laurie, Esq., were on Tues-
day, agreeably to ancient custom, presented to the Cureitor

It will be the means, perhaps, of preventing many similar
disappointments to state that, during the sojourn of the
Court at Windsor Castle, the state rooms will not be open to
visitors on Tuesdays and Fridays.

THE GRAVESEND POST-OFFICE ROBBERr.--SIN•
GULAR DISCOVERY OF TILE STOLEN BAGS.-It will be re-
membered that the mail bags were stolen from the post-office
at Gravesend, on the night of Friday, the 27th of June. ITp
to Saturday last no trace of missing bags or any portion of
their contents could be obtained, when on that day they
were discovered within a hundred yards of the spot from
whence they had been stolen. An uninhabited house in
Edwin-street being about to be occupied, sweeps were em-
ployed to cleanse the chimneys, and from one of which the
bags and rifled letters were brought to light. It is said that
some of the notes obtained by this robbery have been nego-
tiated in France,
