The ceremony took place in the praying-room of the
Institution de Franck : 41 members received the sacra-
me t."
The Frankfort Journal announces that on Saturday,
the 20th, was constituted, at Essling (Wirtemburg), the
German Catholic congregation of that town. The mem-
bers amount to 40, some of whom were Protestants, the
others converted Roman Catholics. The appearance of
Mr. Rouge was anxiously hoped for. Mr. Mangold was
named head of the new sect.

A new decree was issued on the 18th by the Govern-
ment of Llesse concerning the German Catho-
lics. The motive for this proceeding was afforded
by a petition of the German Catholics of Hamm,
that the curate of the town should be authorised
to officiate at baptisms, marriages, and funerals.
The German Catholics of Mat bourg had also demanded
permission to form themselves into a congregation ac-
cording to the principles adopted at the Council of
Leipsic, with the assistance of Protestant clergymen at
their religious ceremonies.
The following is the decree :—" A sect which desires
to form itself neecriling to the principles and rules of the
Council of Leipsic cannot be tolerated nor recognised in
the electorate of Hesse. The assistance of evangelical
clergymen cannot be allowed to the members of such a
sect. The private meetings of such a sect cannot any
longer be tolerated, and the members must confine their
devotions to their own houses."

This line of railway has met with Several approbation, and its im-
portance cannot bo questioned, traversing, as it will, a lecality totally
excluded from the benefit of railway communication, though, it may
be said, one continuous town, for a distance of ten miles, and a
densely-populated neighbourhood, the property around which is open,
fiat, and of a highly favourable character for the construction of a
line of railway.
In addition to the advantage of a direct communication between
the two royal residences at London and Windsor, avoiding the de-
lay and inconvenience of three different conveyances, and reducing
the time requisite for the entire journey to thirty minutes, the pro-
posed line will afford to Barnes, Kew, Islevrorth, Bagshot, Ascot,
Senning-hill, and Egham, all abounding with elegant ♦illas and a
wealthy population, an easy access to Loudon, and form the main
trunk Dar a direct communication to Exeter and the whole of the
south-west of England. It will also afford a facility to reach Hun-
gerford-bridge on the south side of the river by the Richmond Rail-
way, by means of a branch from Hounslow to Richmond.

The Committee have much pleasure in adding that the surveys are
made, the deposits have been duly paid, the parliamentary contract

LONDON, THURSDAY. OCTOBER 2, 1845.

In the Foreign Quarterly &view for the present month,
which contains an article extending to thirty-one pages, on
the French Campaign of 1813 in Germany, we find these
words :—" NAPOLEON, measured by the highest standard, was
great only as a soldier. A great man certainly we cannot
call him, who in the very outset of hiscareer, in the Venetian
business, acted in direct contradiction, or rather in lordly
despite of those laws of truth and justice, the capacity to re-
cognise which distinguishes man from the brute, far
more certainty than any superiority of merely intel-
lectual endowment ; and a great king, or ruler, he
never could be, who in endeavouring to influence
human beings never appealed to any positive passion more
noble than vanity, and whose chief reliance was on the purely
negative affection of fear." Notwithstanding some strong
proofs furnished by Colonel MITCHELL that BONAPARTE was
not quite the great man he has been usually represented, and
the glaring faults be bad committed in several important
battles, evident to men of the most common understanding,
such a partial and unjust character of one of the most re-
markable—we may say the most remarkable—man, not of
the age, but of the last thousand years, we did not expect to
find in a periodical entitled to great weight for its general
ability and impartiality. The writer scarcely ventures to
assert that he was not a great captain, for that would be
instantly disproved by the most palpable facts—facts not
admitted only by Frenchmen, but the universal voice of
mankind; but, while cautious on that point, he endeavours to
prove that in the campaign of 1813 he was hardly superio
to BLUCHER or to 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, LABAUME, who is not overpartial to
NAPOLEON, says "vie 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 ene view of the
question, and the Reviewer takes another, which is
equally remote from the truth. In fact, he describes

LONDON, TIIURSDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1845.

It wilf*he.Seen,*from an '*Official document published in
another part of the paper, that the last of the five ports to be
opened to English commerce in China, according to the
treaty of Nankin, has been placed on nearly the same footing
as Canton. This port, called Rio- chow-foo, lies nearly
midway hetiVeen that ancient mart .for British commerce
and the city. of Ningpoo. -From the accounts .published, 'it is
not likely,• at least for' some time, that this place will afford
scope for commercial . transactions on a-grand scale; but in
this we see "little "cause for Itgret, as the circumstance may
have the effect of checking over-speculation, and accustom
ing the .inhabitants by degrees to the use . of British
manufactures. • Thmigh the town is not of great extent,
when compared'with Others on that toast, it adjoins popu-
lous districts, it will give an opening into the interior, and
afford a rneans.of communication between Britislis-;;eSatli and.
the rich countries traversed by the great canal. This is the last
of the victories gained by .the Chinese war, and it is gratify-
ingto find that there is every disposition on the part of the
authorities to carry out the conditions of the treaty in
good faith, and promote d' flourishing trade with foreigners.
It requires only prudence, fair dealing, and peaceable conduct
On the part of the British traders to render the intercourse
mutually beneficial; and we leave little doubt that the firm
conduct 'displayed by Sir 11. PorruscEn in repressing
irregularities and" enforcing the conditions sanctioned by his
name, wili.be imitated by i,h4.l3ritisfi C(.4iiiis -at the different

DOLMAN'S MAGAZINE.

There are certain parties who imagine that they have
been readers of history in their youth, but discover, in
mature age, that they hare not only been egregiously
deceived in assuming that to be authentic which they
have read, but that its most important passages are pre-
cisely those which they have since forgotten. They
then endeavour to console themselves, under the un-
pleasant conviction to which they are reluctantly brought,
by finding mares' nests, in the shape of events which
they suppose the most eminent historians to have over-
looked, or the most intelligent readers to have put some
false construction upon, if they have been recorded. It
is always amusing to observe the high value they put
upon their " waifs and estrays" of history, where they
consider them to ba discoveries ; or the grave com-
placency with which they dwell upon the erroneous im-
pressions they pronounce all the rest of the world to
have entertained of the bearing of facts that are on all
hands admitted. The writer of a paper called the
" Stuarts in Exile," with which the present number of
Dobnali opens, comes within this class of readers of
history. There is as much oblivion of some facts as
there is misconstruction of others, in the following so-
phisticated attempt to palliate the treason committed by
the most imbecile of the Stuarts to the constitution he
had sworn to respect:—

With the name of James the Second, Catholicism and
erhit,rary power are, in the minds of a great majority of per-
sons, superficially acquainted with the facts .of English
history, inseparably connected : gqd ri.eygrtllelessi the worst
crime which can be laid to his Owe is; that In the exec;
cise of a prerogative which he believed himself to possess! and
of which the legal limits ha I in fact never been authoritativoly
defined, he attempted to carry out certain great principles of
qvij and religious- liberty, whereof in our own more en-
tiwes all parties have recognised the. justice and

NEW GERMAN REFORMATION,

The Universal German Gazette contains the follow-
ing :—" The divine service of th© German Catholic

curate of Hamburgb.
The ceremony took place in th-, praying-room of the
mon was presiehed by Mr. Wittig,
Institution de Franck : 41 m'embers received the sacra.
CCAfahatulhirceolhcrerh congregation atAiol 'qr.
Merit."
The Frankfurt Journal announces that on Saturday,
the 20th, was e:instituted, at Essling (Wirtemburg), the
German Catholic congregation of that town. The Meal-
ben amount to 40, some of whom wero Protestants, the
others converted Roman Catholics. The appearance of
Mr. Ronge was anxiously hoped for. Mr. Mangold was
named head of the new sect.
A new decree was issued on the 18th by the Govern-
ment of Hesse concerning the German Catho-
lics. The motive for this proceeding was afforded
by a petition of the German Catholics of Flamaq
that the curate of the town should be authorised
to officiate at baptisms, marriages, and funerals..
The German Catholics of Marbourg had also demanded.
permission to form themselves into a congregation ac-
eording to the principles adopted at the Council of
Leipsic, with the assistance of Protestant clergymen at
their religious eeremonies.

The following is the decree :—" A sect which desires
to fbrm itself acc: rding to the principles and rules of the
Council of Leip.iie cannot be tolerated nor recognised in
the electorate of Hesse. The assistance of evangelical
clergymen cannot be allowed to the members of such st.
sect. The private meetings of such a sect cannot any
longer be tolerated, and the members must confine their
devotions to their own ht uses."

SECRETART—Mr. RAM C. Sommers.

In submitting this undertaking to the public, the promoters are
influenced no less by a conviction of Its importance as a direct cols-
necting ling between the important towns of Chichester and Ports-
mouth and the metropolis, than by its grand national importance in
affording a direct communication between the two great military and
naval arsenals of Great 11 itain.—Portsmouth and Ckatham.

The projected undertaking, by proceeding to the two termini it
Chichester and Portsmouth. will extend the facilities of communica•
tion with the coast branches of railways along the south of England.
connecting itself with Brighton to the eastward, and Southampton
towards the west. By the main line falling into the Brighton Rail-
way tip, advantage of two termini in London will be secured—the
one at the Bricklayers' Arms, and the other at London-bridge—the
latter of Which, from Its proximity to the Custom House, and the

PROSPECTUS.
. .

This important line will commence at Brighton, and (passing
through or contiguous to the towns of Stapling, Petworth, Mid-
hurst, Peterslield and Airesford) will Join at the Andover Road sta-
tion of the South-Western Railway, the proposed Southampton
Manchester and Oxford Junction.

An arrangement has been entered into watt the latter Company,
and it is proposed by means of their projected line, tkat the
Brighton and Cheltenham Runway shall proceed through Munger-
ford to Swindon.

From Petersfleld a short branch will be made to Chichester
where, nearly at the same point of junction, the London and Ports-
mouth direct will intersect the line in its way to Portsmouth.
From Swindon it is proposed to proceed by the Manchester and
Southampton Railway to Chelt nham, and the North of England
by the Derbyshire, Worcestershire and Staffordshire Junction, or
other existing and contemplated lines.
On reference to the map, it will be seen that the primary object
to be obtained by the formation of this line will be the immediate
connexion of the northern, western, and the whole of the manufac-
turing counties, and North and South Wales, with the southern coast
and the populous and fashionable towns of Brighton, Hastings, and
Dover.
It le unnecessary to observe on the daily Increasing traffie between

AFFGHANISTAN.

We have intelligence from Caubul. Our last news was to
the effect that the Peshawur invasion had, to all appearance,
been abandoned, and a determination had been manifested
by the Wuzeer to proceed towards Kandahar. This, how-
ever, did not last long, and there is reason to believe it was
meant as a blind, for though there could be no chance of-pro-
thing by Peshora Singh's rebellion still the Caubul chiefs
cannot abandon the idea of relinquishing Peshawur for good.
On the 21st of September orders were issued by the Ameer
for the payment of the artillery cf his army, with the view of
their being sent down to Jellalabad, in anticipation of his
own and the Wuzeer's almost yearly winter visit to that
place, and the payment was effected not in coin, which would
have been too direct a mode of dealing with the Affghan chiefs,
but by orders on the keepers of the Government grain maga-
zines. The troops to take a certain quantity of grain at the
Ameer's valur.tion, with permission to sell it for whatever it
might fetch in the market. On the following day a similar
arrangement was effected for the payment of the infantry.
At the same time instructions were sent to Ahmed Khan
Meer Akhor, Lieutenant-Governor of Jellalabad, to extri-
cate two large guns, which had been abandoned in Bala
Bagh some time ago, from their present position, and have
them prepared for service. The Mooltanee Affghans, who
had abandoned their country and gone to Caubul in a large
body, in the beginning of the year 1844, and of whom we
have heard nothing since their discharge from the service of
the Ameer on the breaking up of the Jellalabad force last
year, having accommodated their disputes with the ruler of
\looltan, are, it is stated, about to return to their homes.
Great difficulty is said to have been experienced in realising
the local revenue, in consequence of the confusion which had
arisen dunng the prevalence of the cholera, and the customs'
officer, or contractor of customs, the well-known Surwur
Khan Lohanee, had created great dissatisfaction by raising
the several duties to enable him to realise the required
amount of revenue.

PE SHAW UR.

Our latest news from Peshawur affords little more than
confirmation and details of what we had previously heard rid
Lahore. The date of Sirdar Tej Singh's final departure from
his Government is stated to have been the 27th of September,
Dlx*rileall(had accompanying him as previously noted, under
iguard of 300 suwars. Sirdar Tej Singh met his successor,
Shere Singh .Attareewallah, on the banks of the Indus, *here
he introdueed-te the' latter the chief officers Whom he had
employed during his rule, and recommended them to his con-
sideration. Shere Singh had not reached the capital on the 3d
of October, and General Goordut Singh was officiating for him
until his arrival. Shere Singh had, however, assumed the
functions of governor, and sent orders to release all the pri-
soners in the gaols, which were complied with, except in the
instance of 17 men of the Rain Gole battalion, implicated in
the murder of the late Sirdar Maha Singh. Sirdar Peer
Alahomed had been successfully engaged in operations against
some refractory villages in the neighbourhood of Hustnuggur.
