SOUTHAMPTON, PETERSFIELD, AND LONDON DI-
RECT RAILWAY.—A numerous and influential public meet-
ing of the inhabitants of Petersfield was held in that borough
on Wednesday last, John Ring, Esq., the mayor, in the chair,
to consider the propriety of supporting this line. The De-
puty-Chairman of the Company, Joseph Lobb, Esq., addressed
the meeting at great length in explanation of the details of
the undertaking, after which a series of resolutions (which

DIRECT BIRMINGHAM AND LEICESTER RAILWAY.

—A meeting of the Provisional Directors of
the above Com-
pany was held yesterday (Friday), at their Offices, Upper
Temple-street, Birmingham. There was a full attendance
of the Directory, in consequence of its being known that Sir
John Rennie, the engineer-in-chief of the Company, would
attend to give his opinion of the plans and surveys that
had been completed by his employees. We are happy to state,
from the opinion expressed by Sir John Rennie, the Directors
are fully satisfied with the measures that have been taken to
complete the preparations which the present month renders
necessary, in order that the standing orders may be complied
with. It will be seen, on reference to our advertising
columns, that the financial affairs a the Company are in the
most flourishing condition, 51,937/. having been received as
otAO/. are now out at
interest. No

every way to complywith the rules and orders of Parliament,
and therefore will, we have no doubt, be in a different posi-
tion to many other projected companies.ofbtweh xicishtsutpLatrdthse o

WINDSOR. ELECTION.—From the extraordinary
exertions (to obtain the supportof those electors Who still remained
unpledged up to a late hour on Thursday eveldng) made en behalf of
Colonel Reid, joined to the power which has been brought to bear
against Mr. Walter from an influential quarter, that gentleman, by
the advice of his friends, consented to withdraw himself, and to leave
the field open to Colonel Reid. This announcement, which was not
made until late on Friday evening, by means of a hand-bill issued by
Mr. Walter, appeared to take the electors by surprise. The nomina-
tion, which is now contemplated to prove a very quiet affair, will
take place this morning, at eleven o'clock.
