the 6th instant, from the prisoner. The latter, it appeared,
asked Turner to let him " loose down some iekens," and
being informed be might, took six from his pocket, which he
asserted were his own property. These chickens were by
divers witnesses sworn to as being the very same that Pritchard
hail received from Taylor, although it was admitted that other
neighbours Lad chickens of a similar breed; but the most ma-
terial witness to this identity was one who, according to our
forms of law, could not appear in the box to give evidence, to
wit, the mother of the abstracted birds. Many bens, indeed,
would take under their wing strange chicks, but this respecta-
ble hen, said the witness Powell, was not one of those, who
would have so treated even a relative, so absolutely were Ler
affections wrapped up in her own progeny. She, the moment
she had the chickens restored to her, took them at once under
her own protection, and thereby fully, it was asserted, proved
that they were hers. Rowell was positive himself that they
were the same chickens that had bean carried off; he recognised
them at once. His sight, he indeed admitted, was weak, and
he feared he should be unable to recognise the Learned Coun-
sel for the prisoner, should they ever meet again, but he was
quite sure that if he had presided morning and evening over
that gentleman's breakfast and supper, as he had done for the
chickens during five weeks, he certainly should not forget him.
The whole question wan really one of identity.
The prisoner's counsel addressed the jury. He called a
Air. Bevan, in whose employment the prisoner had been from
the age of nine years, and who said that he had always borne an
excellent character for honesty.
His 1,-..rdship summed up, and the jury in about ten minutes
found the prisoner Guilty, but recommended him to mercy.
TLe Learned Judge then passed sentence of imprisonment,
with bard labour, for two months.

Increased Capital 800,0001., in New Shares of 201. each.

The Provisional Directors beg to inform the Subscribers that it has
been determined to carry out the original plan of this undertaking by
extending the line from Market Harborough to Bedford, where it will
unite Idth the Northern and Eastern Railway, and from the North-
atnptoll and l'eterborough line, near Ditehford-bridge, to Iluntingdon,
whertelt will unite with the Cambridge and Huntingdon and Ely and
Huntingdon Railways, thus completing a direct communication by
means of existing lines between the East of England and Binning-
lam and the manufacturing districts, without any infringement upon
Svested interests.

The proposed extensions will also furnish a supply of coal, iron, and
other articles of heavy merchandise, to a district at present but ill
supplied with land or water carriage.
The heads of an arrangement of a highly satisfactory nature with
the Midland Counties and London and Birmingham Companies
having been made, it is intended that the entire line shall be laid
down under the able superintendence of Mr. Robert Stephenson.
Edinind Peel, Esq., Chairman of the Trent Valley Railway, and
Henry Teotal, Esq., have joined the Committee of Management, and
other important measures are in progress, the details of winch will
shortly appear.
The greater part of the increased capital being placed at the dis-
posal of the London and Birmingham and Midland Counties Com-
panies, the remainder will be appropriated amongst the landowners
and parties locally interested and holders of the present South Mid-
land scrip. No applications from the public can, therefore, be, enter-
tained.

ROYAL ASSENT.

Mr. Pulman summoned the House of Commons to
attend at tke bar of the House of Lords to hear the royal
assent given to various public and private Bills, for the
names of which see Lords' report.
The SPEAKER, having been absent about half an
hour, resumed the chair, and announced that he had
been to hear the royal assent given to several Bills.
CEYLON.

Mr. TUFNELL said he wished to ask a question or
two of the lion. Gentleman the Under-Secretary for the
Colonies (Mr. Hope) relative to Ceylon. Lie wished to
know why it was that certain information and communi-
cations, relative to the civil servants of that colony, had
been withheld by the Governor; and whether in the event
of the civil servants wishing to retire from the colony,
they were to be allowed to take the property which
they acquired is the service of the Government with
them?
Mr. HOPE said that, with regard to the first point,
more was done than what was asked for, for now the
the Hon. Member might be placed in possession of all
the information connected with this proceeding when-
ever he thought fit. With regard to the other matter,
he did not think that his Noble Friend had any inten-
tion of divesting any of the civil servants of their pro-
perty. The course to be taken, however, would depend
materially upon local circumstances, and he could give
no pledge at present.
BRAZIL SLAVE-TRADE TREATY BILL.

On the order of the day for bringing up the report on

this Bill, being read,
Mr. MILNER GIBSON said he wished to make
a few remarks on this Bill. He said he had
particularly examined the provisions of the Bill,
and was unable to view it in any favourable light.
The treaty amounted to this, that it was a declaration
of the intention of the Executive Government, and they
could not hold that the subjects of that country
were to be dealt with by a mere declaration of
the Executive Government. They could not hold that
any Power could bring the subjects into a
criminal tribunals, and inflict punishments short of the
laws under which they lived. The Government of Brazil
had passed no such law as that they should be punished
for carrying on the slave trade, and the Government of
this country had official knowledge that such law
did not exist. The English Government could not
possess the power of punishing thorn when the laws of
their own country could not punish them. If there
were such a law in their own country, it then remained
a question whether they could punish them in this
country fora breach of their own law. He hold that to
be most unquestionable, and was at a loss to understand
the explanation which her Majesty's Attorney-General
gave to them when the subject was before the House on
a former evening. This measure appeared to him
calculated to bring about the evils which they were
trying to suppress. appeared calculated to excite
pwilttnot arid liogtility towards this country. He oould

RUGBY, DERBY, AND MANCIIESTER
RAILWAY.

(Provlsiohallyreglstered pursuant to 7 and B.Vict, c. 110.)

This Railway will commence at the Rugby station of the London
and Birmingham Railway, and will proceed in nearly a straight lino
to Derby, using so much of the LeleesteF and Swannington Railway
as lies In its course.

From thence it will Join the High Peak and Manchester, Buxton,
Matlock, and Midland Railways.
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 amount of new railway, and consequently the smallest
expenditure of capital.
The proposed Railway will form a direct continuation of the Lon-
don and Birmingham Railway to Manchester, and thus supersede
the necessity of any direct Manchester and London railway, as the
distance to London by this route will be as short as by either of the
proposed direct Manchester and London Railways.
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, Dec by, 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 communica-
tion 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 North Midland Railway is made.

The support of the London and Birmingham, the North Midland,
and Manchester, Buxton, and Midland Railways, may be expected
for this line.

A report on the line by one of the most eminent engineers of the
day is in course of preparation, after which a detailed prospectus,
with the namos of a most powerful directory, together with the
amount of capital, &c., will be published. In the meantime com-
munications may be addressed to the Company's Solicitor,

FREE PASSAGE ; UNDER the SANCTION of GOVERNMENT,

The undersigned are authorised by her Majesty's Colonial Land
and Emigration Commissioners to grant a FREE PASSAGE to the
above eminently healthy and prosperous Colony, to married Agri-
cultural Labourers, Shepherds, Male and Female Domestic and Farm
servants, Bricklayers, Carpenters, Masons, and Smiths, of sober in-
dustrious character. The demand for labour at the Cape is urgent,
and is well remunerated in wages, provisions, clothing, and lodging.
The passage is comparatively short, and the arrangements for the
voyage will be as perfect as they can be rendered. The first ship
will embark her passengers at Southampton on the 23rd October, for
Table Bay and Algoa Bay, and will be followed at frequent intervals
afterwards by other First-class Poop ships, of large tonnage, with
very superior accommodations for all classes of passengers ; and each
ship will carry a thoroughly competent Surgeon. They will all t all
at Plymouth for the convenience of passengers from the South-
Western Counties, and from Ireland. Persons coming by way of
London will be conveyed by railway, in three hours alongside the
ship in the Docks at Southampton, free of charge. Such steerage-
passengers as are not eligible for a free passage will be conveyed
at 121. for adults, and 61. for children. Poop cabin-passengers

All particulars will be furnished on application, personally, or by
