•tart watchfulness. Equal and exact justice should
characterise all our intercourse with foreign countries.
All alliances having a tendency to jeopard the welfare
and honour of our country, or sacrifice any one of the
national interests, will be studiously avoided, and yet
no opportunity will be lost to cultivate a favourable un-
derstanding with foreign Governments, by which our
navigation and commerce may be extended, and the
ample products of our fertile soil, as well as the ;mum-
factures of our skilful artisans, find a ready market and
remunerating prices in fru cign countries.
"In taking care that the laws be faithfully ex-
ecuted,' strict performance of duty will be exacted from
all public officers. From those officers, especially, who
Ire charged with the collection and disbursement of the
public revenue, will prompt and rigid accountability be re-
quired. Any culpable failure or delay on their part to
account for the moneys intrusted to them, at the times
and in the manner reqaired by law, will, in every in-
stance, terminate the official connexion of such default-
ing officer with the government.
" Although, in our country, the chief magistrate must
almost of necessity be chosen by a party, and stand
pledged to its principles and measures, yet, in his official
action, he should not be the President of a part only, but
of the whole people of the United States. While he ex-
ecutes the laws with an impartial hand, shrinks from
no proper responsibility, and faithfully carries out in the
Executive department of the Government the principles
and policy of those who have chosen him, he should not
be unmindful that our fellow• citizens who have differed
with him in opinion are entitled to the full and free ex-
ercise of their opinions and judgments, and that the
rights of all are entitled to respect and regard.
" Confidently relying upon the aid and assistance of
the co-ordinate departments of the Government in con-
ducting our public affairs, I enter upon the discharge of
the high duties which have been assigned me by the
people, again humbly supplicating that Divine Being
who has watched over and protected our beloved country
from its infancy to the present hour, to continue kits
gracious benedictions upon us, that we may continue to
be a prosperous and happy people."

STATE OF TRADE.

The brealcing-up of the frost has not yet restored ani-
mation in this market. The demand for yarn was
yesterday more limited than for some time past ;
and some of the buyers for Russia and Germany
were offening orders on lower prices. dye be_
lieve, that, at a very trifling concession fr,,m
the previous rates, a considerable amount of bu-
siness , would have been done. The spinners, how_
ever, 4g almost all under contract, refused to give
way, rica the transactions were consequently limited. In

CANADA.

There is nothing new from Canada ; but to a person
conversant with men and measures there, something
worthy of attention is observable in the movements of
society ; for, although quiet and repose seem to reign
in that province just now, there are elements at work
which will most certainly explode sooner or later, if
another policy be not adopted to neutralise their force.
A silly attempt was made to alter the Custom-house
laws, so as to extend the exemption from foreign duty
of American wheat in bond. At present that article,
when ground in Canada, is received in England as colo-
nial flour, thus bestowing a great advantage on Canada
millers and a handful of shippers. Not content with
this, they attempted to extend the law to wheat in bond,
hoping thus to evade the colonial duty on wheat imported
into Canada ; they were, however, very properly, dis-
comfited in their attempt. The railroad scheme appears
to be highly popular in Montreal.
NEW YORK MONEY MARKET.—FEB. 28.

This being packet day, there is a good deal doing in
sterling bills. There is a good supply at 1094 a 110 for
the best. Since the sailing of the last steamer, the

Pennsylvania interest has been paid ; but the news
had been anticipated in England by the packets—conse-
quently, the steamer will take nothing new in relation
to the suspended debt of the States, farther than the an-
nouncement of the arrival of the Illinois Commissioners
at Springfield.
The Committee on Finance in Illinois have reported
back the Revenue Bill, with modifications in accordance
with the message of the Governor in relation to the
$1,600,000 loan.

TRADES DELEGATES' CON-
FERENCE.—(YESTERDAY.)
The Conference met to-day at ten o'clock ; T. S.
Duncombe, Esq., M.P., in the chair.
The business of the meeting was principally confined
to the mode of conducting their future proceedings,
and the adoption of a report. The report was
not ready for circulation, and the discussion of
the several topics contained in it was put off till it
should be in the hands of the several delegates compos-
ing the conference. It was proposed that the meeting
for this purpose should be adjourned till three o'clock to-
morrow, but several delegates from the country having
stated that the societies on whose behalf they
attended were under considerable expense, it was agreed
that the delegates should assemble this afternoon, at
two o'clock, for the purpose of explaining their views to
each other ; tad that for the future they would meet at
half-past nine o'clock in the morning, adjourn at one,
and meet again at two in the afternoon.
London, England, 1845-09-29

cannot be a doubt but that preference would be given to the Great
Leeds and London Direct Railway.
The fact of the Eastern Counties Railway being connected by a
branch line with the East and West India Docks on the river
Thames, and the Railway Company having recently leased for 999
years the extensive pepper warehouses belonging to those docks,
which are capable Of receiving 12,000 tons of goods, together 'svlth
wharfs adjoining, where the shipment and trans-shipment of goods
from all parts of the world can take place, is a most important fea-
ture in favour of the direct communication from the manufacturing
towns of Glasgow and Leeds offered by the Great Leeds and London
Direct Railway, and by branch railways to the main trunk line,
through which all goods from the whole of the manufacturing dis-
tricts could be conveyed- at once to these warehouses for shipment,
thereby avoiding the present delay and expense of cartage, and in
reality establishing an almost direct and an invaluable connexion
between the rivers Clyde and Thames.

It has been ascertained that there are no engineering difficulties,
that the works will be easy, and the gradients remarkably good; and
that it will not materially interfere. with any ornamental property.
The Subscribers will be held liable only to the extent of their first
deposits until an Act of Parliament is obtained, and afterwards only
to the amount of their subscriptions.
It is proposed to take power in the Bill to allow interest at 4 per
cent. per annum on all calls until the opening of the line, and also to
extend the line to Hertford on the Eastern Counties line, in the event
of that Company not prosecuting their line to Redford.
Applications for Shares (in the form annex ) may be made to J.
R. Gibson, Esq., 9, Copthall-court, and Messrs. Owen Gray and

upon, it may be stated that the present annual income derived from
the carriage of passengers, by omnibuses alone, amounts to above
100,0001. ; under these circumstances, no doubt can be entertained of
a very ample return for the capital required for this important work.
The preliminary announcements of this undertaking have referred
to it as the London, Brentford, Hounslow, and Great Western Junc-

farther consideration, altered to the present designation, In order to
distinguish it from other schemes similar in name, but differing in

be made for applying to Parliament for an Act in the ensuing seseieu,
previously to which the plans will be laid before the Metropolitan
Commissioners of Improvement for their approval.

Goodwood stable will still be found in the ascendant, and
that the Duke of Richmond's Cuckoo will maintain her
honours. I prefer Cuckoo especially for this race, as she is
just bred for it, her clam having won it before. One of Lord
George's will, no doubt, secure second place.
In the match between Prologue and Colling-wood, P. lean
to the former.

On Wednesday, after the usual four sweepstakes, we have
the St. Leger, with only seven animals named for it. Alarm
will I hear, make his re-appearance for this stake, and al-
though I have no doubt he will run forward, still I do not
think he will be able to beat Refraction, the more so, as he
gives her 31b. Old Garry Owen (Bst. 61b.) will then give
Arcanus (6st. 131 b.) the go-by, without much alarm to his
backers.

In
the Rutland, I shall be much disappointed if Tugnet
does not prove the winner.
In the 50 Sovs. Sweepstakes, I prefer most Paultons.
The match between Captain Phoebus and Collingwood will
be won, I should imagine, by the former.

EIGHT GENTLEMEN OF SURREY WITH THREE

PLAYERS v. THE MITCHAM CLUB.

It has seldom been our lot to witness a match'of which the
interest has gone on increasing, as in this case, from the first,
till at its close it had become " intense." That such was the
case in this match will be readily conceived, when it is stated
that the three last wickets had, we think, nine runs only to
get. These batsmen then played with vast care, and ran
several runs where the ball had been placed just in the mid-
dle of the play between the wickets, and at length two only
were required to make a " tie" game. It chanced that young
Sherman hit a ball for two,..and off they set, and, as was
supposed, accomplished the feat ; but it is somewhat difficult
to describe the disappoiri(ment which was depicted on the
countenances of the supporters of Mitcham upon one of the
umpires calling .out .0 one short," for then a run was still
required to place them on a par with their opponents. The
next ball took Mr. Iloare's wicket, and thus they lost the
match by one run.
The score stood thus :

LONDON, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1845.

The religious movement which is now exciting rich
deep interest in Germany cannot fail, when understood,
to produce a great effect in this country. The contest
between Catholicism and Protestantism has been carried
on here for more than three hundred years ; it has pro-
duced great political revolutions ; cost one Sovereign his
head, and ultimately destroyed his dynasty ; it has
kept up a never•-ceasing war between Great Britain and
Ireland, led to the enactment of pains and penalties
against a particular race for their principles of belief, and
caused scenes of bloodshed and domestic murders, which
cast a great stain on Christianity. Even at the present
day, in the nineteenth century, these wounds are not
healed—religion is still the great source of all the na-
tional prejudices and antipathies which are mutually en-
tertained by the two countries, and anything like
a peaceable settlement of this question seems as distant
as ever. It is needless to say to which side we incline.
The Reformation has been of incalculable benefit to
these realms ; in fact, neither prosperity, nor independ-
ence, nor the greatest blessing which can fall to the lot
of humanity—liberty—was known till that divine light
which first appeared in Saxony spread its benign intiu-
enceson England and Scotland. What has taken place
since every child acquainted with British history can
tell. The exercise of private judgment broke the chains
of ecclesiastical tyranny, the mind became free, and
exerted itself in all those great undertakings which have
ever distinguished a free people. Colonies were formed,
good laws were established in them, as well as in
the mother country, and from the time that the power
of Rome and the STUART dynasty were expelled from
our shores, this country has taken the lead in progressive

cannot be a doubt but that preference would be given to the Great
Leeds and London Direct Railway.
The fa,:t. of the Eastern Counties Eallw,y being connected by a
branch line with the !7:tsz In :la I) , 5 cit tlc river
Thames, and the Railway Company having recently leased for 95.9
years the extensive pepper warehouses belonging to those docks,
which are capable of receiving 12,000 tons of goods, together with
wharfs adjoining, where the shipment and trans-shipment of goods
from all parts of the world can take place, is a most important fea-
ture in favour of the direct ofmmtmicatiod from -the manufacturing
towns of Glasgow and Leeds offered by the Great Leeds and London
Direct Railway, and by branch railways to the main trunk line,
through which all goods from the whole of the manufacturing dis-
tricts could be conveyed at once to these warehouses for shipment,
thereby avoiding the present delay and expense of cartage, and in
reality establishing an almost direct and an invaluable connexion
between the rivers Clyde and Thames.
It has been ascertained that there are no engineering difficulties,
that the works will be easy, and the gradients remarkably good, and
that it will not materially interfere with any ornamental property.
The Subscribers will be held liable only to the extent of their first
deposits until an Act of Parliament Is obtained, sad afterwards only
to the amount of their subscriptions.

It is proposed to take power in the Bill to allow interest at 4 per
cent. per annum on all calls until the opening of the line, and also to
extend the line to Hertford on the Eastern Counties line, in the event
of that Company not prosecuting their line to Bedford.
Applications for Shares (in the form annexed) may be made to J.
R. Gibson, Esq., 9, Copthall-court, and Messrs. Owen Gray and

THE GREAT ADVANTAGES

Of the Rugby, Derby, and Manchester Railway, ever the other pro-
jects into Manchester, among oth.rs, are—
First. That there arc only seventy-five miles of railway to be made
in place of one hundred and eighty-nine.
Second. That it is a more direct line tom London to Manchester
than even the proposed direct lines.

—ilrd. That 'it interferes with no existing railway property or
Tested interests.
Fourth. That it passes through a District rich in manufactures,
agriculture, and minerals, but which—more especially as regards-its
agricultural produce, and a convenient system of intercommunica-
tion for the conveyance of that agricultural produce, to supply the
large manufacturing towns in the vicinity—has been hitherto left to-
tally without railway communication.
Fifth. That it passes through the towns in its route, instead of
avoiding them.
Sixth. That the whole line of railway from Rugby to Manchester
will be completed and in working order within tcn months fron; the
passing of the Act of Parliament.
Seventh. That the maps, plans, estimates, and other documents
required by the standing orders of Parliament will be lodged with the
parish clerks, the clerks of the peace for the counties, and the
Parliamentary offices, on the 10th of November next, being twenty
days within the time required by the regulations of Parliament.
In the allotment of shares a preference will he given, to the ex-
tent of 10,000 shares, to the holders of stock in the London and Bir-
mingham Railway ; also, of 2,000 shares to the shareholders in the
Oxford, Southampton, and Gosport Railway Company ; of 1,000
shares to the Oxford and Rugby Railway Company ; and 2,000

SOUTHWAWK.

Several of the parochial officers of Christchurch waited on
the Magistrate to complain of a nuisance which had lately
sprung up in that parish, and which the inhabitants were
most desirous to abate. That Blackfriars-road, formerly a
turnpike-road, had within the last twelve months (since the
partial abolition of turnpikes) been under the control of the
parochial officers of Christchurch. Since then the road in
question has been inundated to a great degree with itinerant
renders of fruit and other miscellaneous articles, which were
conveyed in barrows with immense large t rays on the top, con
taming the articles they expose for sale. That those barrows were
a complete obstruction to the passengers, and although the
police have been apprised of it, still they will not interfere to
remove the nuisance. That they (the applicants) were at a
loss how to remedy the evil ; that they meant to proceed by
summons against the parties as their names were not on
their barrows. That the collection of such a number of per-
sons of the above description in the thoroughfare named, had
the effect of congregating thieves to the spot, and as an in-
stance of the robberies that were so prevalent there one of the
applicants said that a few nights since both he and his wife
had their pockets picked. That they (the applicants) had
not the power vested in them of engaging a street-keeper,
which was formerly the case when it was a turnpike-road ;
and that since then they had every reason to believe the
itinerant vendors of fruit and other articles were driven out
of Lambeth and had entered Christchurch.

Mr. TRAIL advised the applicants to make known their
complaint to the Commissioners of Police, especially that part
of it which related to the alleged frequency of robberies in
Blackfriars-road.

The Rugby, Derby, and Manchester Railway is a direct line from
London to Manchester, coming from London to Rugby, along the
London and Birmingham line, and proceeding from Rugby to Hinck-
ley through Market-Bosworth and Ashby-de-la-Zouch, to Derby,
thence to Ashbourne, by Leek to Maecles.field, and along the Mac-
clesfield and Stockport, and Stockport and Manchester Railways, into
Manchester.
A branch to Buxton is in contemplation.

The principle.of this railway is to obtain a direct through line be-
tween some of the most important districts in the kingdom with the
least possible smomit or new num.., eonseauently, the smallest
expenditure of capital.
It will also establish the shortest direct communication between
Derby and London, Sheffield and London, and between all the towns
on the North Midland Railway and London.
The Manchester, Derby, and Rugby Railway, will open a direct
communication between Manchester and Derby, and will consider-
ably shorten the distance between Manchester and Nottingham and
Manchester and Leicester.

The line from Derby to Rugby will establish the direct communi-
cation from that town to London, which has been so long considered
desirable by the inhabitants.
The same will apply to Sheffield, when the Sheffield and Chester-
field branch of the Borth Midland Railway is made.
The Rugby, Derby, and Manchester Railway, In connexion with
the Oxford and Rugby, and Oxford, Southampton, aid Gosport Rail-
way, forms a direct Manchester and Southampton line.
