square, London.
Sncasx.sar (pro tem.)—Mr. Alexander Hay.
Offices, 29, lilucklersbury, London.

The object of this undertaking is to form a direct communication
between the important town and port of Carmarthen, the northern
parts of the county, and Cardiganshire, with the rich mineral die-
Vida in the south and east of Carmarthenshire.
The projected line will join the South Wales, Welsh Midland, Car-
marthen and Cardigan, and Great North and South Wales Railways
at Carmarthen. It will be connected at the Great Motentain with
the Llanelly Railway already constructed to the Cross Hands, and
a branch will extend into the Gwendraeth Vale to the Colebrook
ironworks, there joining the Kidwelly Canal. It will thus unite
several important railways and other means of communication, and
afford ready transit for the supply of coal and lime to very extensive
districts, the costs of conveying which will be less than the toll pay-
able on the present roads.
The southern terminus of the Great North and South Wales Rail-
way is at Carmarthen, and no provision is made by the promoters for
any communication by it with the coal and lime fields. These pro-
ducts, before they are conveyed from Carmarthen, must first be
brought to that town.
The South Wales and Welsh Midland Railway; describe a consider-
able circuit in communicating, even in an indirect manner, with the
heart of the mineral districts. The distance from Carmarthen by
each of these lines to the Great Meuntain will be about twenty-flee
miles ; the distance by the line now proposed will not exceed twelve.
It is therefore evident that the immense traffic in coal and lime
between Carmarthen and the mineral districts must be carried on
by the intended railway. The line will follow the Vale of Towy as
far as Cappeldewy, and then diverge, by way of Porthyrhyd and the
Illansell's Arms, to the coal districts. The branch into the Gwen-
draeth Vale will be two miles long, which, with the trunk line, will
snake the whole length to be constructed fourteen miles.
In consequence of the peculiar features of the country, the pro-
d lice can meet with opposition from no other scheme, as the
bold shain of hills running from east to west to the south of the
Towy are quite impracticable at all other points between Llandilo
and the sea, a distance of twenty-live miles. This line will follow
the only valley intersecting the hills, which presents the most striking
facilities for constructing a railway along it, as none of the gradients
will exceed 1 in 100, and there will be no occasion for any tunnelling.
The capital required will be 140,0001.
CalCulationa have been made of the tonnage carried along the pre-
sent road's, and an ample remuneration for the capital invested would
be secured even without increased traffic.
The South Wales, Welsh Midland, Carmarthen and Cardigan,
and Great North and South Wales Railways radiate from Car-
marthen to the west, north, and east of the county; and
the latter lines will open communication with the whole of Car-
diganshire. All these extensive districts are now mainly
supplied with coal aid lime from the vicinity of Carmarthen.
The traffic in these staple commodities is at present very consider-
able: ail many as 1,000 tons of lime have passed in one day through
a single gate on one of the great thoroughfares into Carmarthen.
With the facility of conveyance afforded by railways, added to the
large extent of country which will be opened by means of the lines
alluded to, this traffic will be immensely increased.
• The project was first mooted about ten years ago. A meeting was
held at Carmarthen, attended by a large and influential body of
gentry, landoWners, and merchants. Resolutions were then unani-
mously adopted approving of the scheme, pointing out its advantages
to the country and its value as a safe investment. Surveys of the
line were afterwards made, which proved that the gradients were
easy, and that the country was free from engineering difficulties.
Some objections, however, arose, which led to the temporary aban-
donment of the undertaking ; these cannot again occur. A
large body if influential persons have already signified their appro-
bation of the scheme. It will meet with the strenuous support of all
the mineral interests in the localities referred to ; and the authori-
ties, merchants, and influential residents of Carmarthen, will afford
every support to carry out an undertaking so beneficial to the inte-
rests of the town and neighbourhood.
The Earl of Cawdor and the other principal landowners on the pro-
posed line have been consulted, and their consents and approbation
have been obtained.
The corporation of Carmarthen has just had a careful survey of
the river matte by an engineer of high standing, with a view of
effecting material improvements in its navigation It appears suf-
ficiently evident that, with the outlay of a comparatively small
plyinealf tfioeciligiterStirwernet "ftViliVrolrini`ihMersols-
to avoid the intermediate shoals and sinuosities, all difficulty to its
free navigation will be removed, and with this facility a very large
report trade will be insured in coal, iron, and other produce of the
country. These improvements (since the prospectus of this Company
was first Issued) have been undertaken by the North and South
Wales Railway Company, who have pledged themselves to an effec-
tual oonstruction of the necessary works. Feelingly alive to the inte-
rests of the trade of the town and to the wishes of the corporation,
the Committee of Management have gladly acceded to this arrange-
ment, whereby the objects of all parties will be secured. To the
promoters of this Company this result is highly satisfactory, as by
these means a considerable outlay of their funds will be avoided.
Extensive ironworks are now in operation in the Gwendraeth Vale,
anti others on a large scale are about to be erected in therVale of
Ammon. The stores of coal and lime are inexhaustible : several
Important collieries have been lately opened, and are now ready to
pour their teeming wealth into tire market, but a want of commu-
nication with the distant districts of this and the adjoining counties
prevents the proprietors reaping the fruit of their enterprise. The
line now proposed, forming a junction at Carmarthen with the great
trunk lines, will afford the accommodation so much desired
Preparations have been made so as to insure eomplianee with the
standing orders in time to apply for an Act in the ensuing Session.
The gauge to be adopted will depend upon the report of the Govern-
ment Commissioners.
In order that every attention may be secured to local interests,
arrangements are now being made to add the names of other gentle-
men of influence and property in the county to the provisional com-
mittee.

The liability of the shareholders until the act is obtained will be
limited to the amount of deposits, and after incorporation to the
amount of their subscriptions.
A preference will be given to the hoidens of shares in the South
Wales, Welsh Midland, and Great North and South Wales Railway
Companies.

Power will be tarn in the Bill to allow interest at 4/. per cent. per
annum on all Deposits and Calls thie the time otpayment until the

have disfigured, according to the tardy admission
of the Premier himself, " the noblest site stfered
by any capital in Europe." But the dvf -nit of
Trafalgar-square exhibit their culminating en ,ilwty in
the still unfinished monument to the ill-requited but illus-
trious saviour of his country, the immortal NELSON—to
that sublime genius, and that undaunted spirit, which pur-
sued the naval power of the most victorious enemy we had
ever coped with, over every sea, to every shore of the habit-
able world in which the standard-of France was successively
unfurled, in flight 8r in aggression, and broke and triumphed
over all its might and all its valiant resistance ;
—to him whose crowning victory rescued this
mighty kingdom from becoming a mere province
of that universal empire, which, but fur this over-
throw of the combined fleets of France and Spain, the
stupendous ambition of NAPOLEON would have achieved and
established.

But these are not times when either the aspect of our foreign
relations, er the relative power and state of preparation in
which foreign powers are maintaining their forces—especially
their maritime service—will tolerate any longer any indig-
nity to the memory of that great man, whose renowned
name alone will'yet act as a spirit-stirring spell, a trumpet-
tongued inspiration to the navy of Great Britain, under all
circumstances and in every exigency. The common sailors
will rush into action, whenever the fatal necessity for action
shall arrive, with the indelible name of "Nelson " engraven
on their memory, as the undaunted and affectionate com-
mander who led their fathers and their brothers into every
engagement with the assured confidence of victory, and
the irresistible determination to distinguish themselves. The
young officer and the veteran commander will be animated by
the same impulses, heightened by reminiscences of the tena-
cious ;generosity with which this illustrious Chieftain—far
from coldly discouraging the just demands of his brothers
in arms for distinctions in proportion to his own rewards—
warmly, importunately, fervently pressed, even to his own
prejudice and the incurring official rebuke, on the reluctant
attention of Lords of the Admiralty, Prime Ministers, and
even the SOVEREIGN, the ample rewards and honours due to
those whom his heroic affection always designated as forming,
with himself, "a band of brothers." Let this signal reflection
on the national gratitude, on its sense of true glory, its sense
even of its own political interests, be instantly effaced, we say,
by the completion of the "Nelson" memorial. And since Chan-
cellors of the Exchequer, and First Lords and First Commis-
sioners seem inaccessible to anything like kindred emotions of
sympathy in that feeling which first prompted, among private
or professional "individuals," its erection, let all the great
communities of the kingdom repair the evil by furnishing the
supplies vainly demanded of the Government. The spirited
little town of Greenwich, dignified as the locality of the
noblest home and retirement which public gratitude. has .yet
provided in this country for our decayed sailors, has
set an admirable example, that may be instantly
and efficiently followed by every other town in Great Britain.
It has originated a penny subscription among its 14,000 in-
habitants. A penny subscription among the millions of our
large marts of manufacturing, and even agricultural and com-
mercial industry, would realise ample funds for the comple-
tion of this monument and the erection of another, which, in
point of grandeur, extent, utility, and beauty, might put to
shame all that the Legislature has yet decreed er the Execu-
tive erected,

story !

has taken place between Baron DE BOURQUENEY, the French
Ambassador at Constantinople, and the Ottoman Porte, rela-
tive to the murder of a French Missionary in the Lebanon.
Some English correspondents from that quarter had stated,
that the French Consul at Bey-rout had demanded that the
person chiefly implicated in the death of the priest should be
put to death without trial—a demand not at all likely to be
made by the representative of a Constitutional Government.
The account given in the Constitutionnel is very different--
we are inclined to think more near the truth. "We shall
give," says that paper, " the following extract of a letter
from Father FRANCOIS DE PLOUGHE, prefect of the Cupucins
of Syria, written on the 10th of last June, in which are de •
tails of the death of Father CHARLES DE LORETTE. His
character is a sufficient guarantee for the truth of the recitals
this letter contains ;---' A chief, named HAMMED ABER
MACHAT, came with his followers and attacked our convent,
in which was Father CHARLES DE LottErrE. At the
sight of these barbarians the missionary fled, but was
pursued, overtaken, and cut down by the sabre with des
perate wounds on the head and shoulders, and being finished
with musket shots, and his body torn open and burnt after
taking out the entrails.' Our agent at Beyrout demanded of
the Turkish authorities-Ist, that the chief author of this act
of barbarity should be brought to trial, and, secondly, that
the tribunal called upon to try him should present guarantees
for the justice of its judgments, which are not to be ordinarily
found in the Turkish magistracy. The issue of this affair has
proved that our Consul has had good reason for not relying
upon the impartiality of the judges of Beyrout. The details
contained in the letter of Father Froacurs DE PLOUGHS
above cited show that the murder of Father CHARLES was
not an accident of war, that the sufferer was a French subject,
and therefore that our Consul had an incontestible right to
interfere in the process against his murderer." The
Presse gives nearly the same account, and according
to that paper, no arrangement had been come to, and the
state of affairs in the Lebanon was daily growing worse,
chiefly owing to the despotic conduct of the Turkish
PACHA, and his partiality to the Druses :—" The mission
of CHEKIB EFFENDI, which was represented as one alto-
gether of conciliation, cannot fail to bring forth new disturb-
ances. It is now averred that the Ottoman Plenipotentiary
has taken under his protection the man whom public rumour
had designated as the murderer of Father CHanuts, and that
he does not intend granting any of the indemnities claimed
by France for the tw• convents burnt down during the
civil war. But that is not all. We learn that, at the date
of the 11th, CHEKIB EFFENDI was preparing to attack the
Libanus, in order to effect the disarming of the moun-
taineers. The foreigners established in the mountain, sum-
moned by him to quit it, refused to comply with this
injunction if their property was not guaranteed. This de-
mand, supported by thd Consul, was at first favourably re-
ceived by CIIEKIB EFFENDI, but soon after he objected that
the guarantees ought to be given by the Porte, and not by
him. The Europeans then declared that they would remain
in the mountain ; that CHEKIB EFFENDI was free to act as
seemed fit to him, but that they reserved to themselves the
right of making good their rights. Such was the state of
matters when the last account left." The following appears
in the Constitutionnel, relative to the precarious position of
French residents in Mexico:—
" The French naval station in the Gulph of Mexico has
(says the Constitutionnel) at this time only two twenty.gun
ships, LA Perouse and Le Mercure—a force far from sufficient to
command respect. The number of French in Mexico, according to a
census taken in 1835, exceeds 12,000 persons, established chiefly
in the towns of Mexico, Vera Crux, Xalapa, Puebla, Acapulco,
Orizaba, Santa Fe, Zacatecas, Campeachy, Tabasco, and Tam-
, pico. M. de Ciprey, on quitting Mexico, left his fellow.coun-
trymen under the protection of the Spanish Chargé d'Affaires, who
has at his disposal only a Spanish sloop of war. With the well.
known character of the Mexicans, the situation of the French
may be well conceived to be precarious, in a country whose in.
habitanfis bear an inveterate hatred to foreigners, although they
are the sources of all its commerce and industry."

The vast extent of the British possessions in India, their
wealth, population, and growing power, as well as their
supply of native productions to this country, and the con-
sumption of articles of British manufacture, must place
them in the highest rank among all our foreign possessions.
Indeed, England, so famed for her system of colonisation,
and so successful, especially during the last two cen-
turies, in establishing her sans in almost every
clime of the habitable globe, can boast of nothing at all to
be compared with her dominion in India. It is altogether
an anomaly in every point of view. Such a cluster of great
states—many of them large enough for kingdoms—attaching
themselves to a foreign power, and remaining faithful tribu-
taries, almost 'without compulsion or restraint ; more anxious
for admission within the English pale than to remain subject
to their native chiefs; requiring but a handful of European
troops, rather as models kr imitation than as guardians of
public order or instruments of subjection, altogether exhibit
a picture of Government hitherto unknown in the his-
tory of the human race. The Romans extended their
conquests only by force of arms ; the Greeks were
more civilised, planted colonies, and made progress
rather by the influence of arts and sciences and theirsuperior
skill in civil policy, than by their warlike habits, and in this
respect formed a precedent for the progress of British power
in India; but the extent of their colonial possessions was
nothing compared with the vast expanse where the
English language is spoken, English habits in-
troduced, and bonds of friendship established which
hold out fair prospecti of long and uninterrupted
duration. A speedy and secure communication, therefore, be-
, Omen these countries and the parent state, is of the very
first importance, and ought to occupy the serious attention
of the Government. Even within a few years, entirely by
means of steam, a vast change in that respect has been

is accoruplished in one month, and by and by we
shall hasty monthly, or weekly, if necessary, intelligence
from Bombay in about the time which travellers in
weeks of yore required to pass from London to Edinburgh.
Mr. WAGIIORN, who has already done wonders, engages
to complete, the journey at an average of three
weeks from Bombay to London, and, we have no
doubt, when such great interests are at stake,
lie will receive the utmost support both from the East India
Company and her ISLiaesn's Ministers. Speedy intelli-
gence from that quarter must be obtained. We have
lately acquired a brrge territory to the north of Bombay. A
new source of trade and commerce has been opened up with
the inhabitants on the banks of the Indus ; the Pun-
jaub itself is a kingdom now of primary influence
in our operations in the north, and more particularly in our
relations with the Affgbans and Persians. An Anglo-Indian
army of fifty thousand men is about to assemble on its fron-
tier, for purposes which will require not only all the calm
reflection and ability of Sir H. HARDINGE, but the early and
positive instructions of the Rome Government. Rapid
communication with that army becomes absolutely indis-
pensable, and a few thousands of pounds wisely expended
in furthering such an object may save as many millions.
To be niggardly in such an undertaking is not only mean, it
is impolitic and dangerous, and neither Parliament nor the
Company, merchants and
country would grudge any expense to render quick and punc-

long remain uninterrupted, are not, it must be
admitted, so little liable to be disturbed, as those
with Germany, where there is mach less jealousy of
England, and where the people are more commercial and less
warlike than their excitable neighbours in the west. The
Governments, too, as will be seen from Mr. WAG-
Roßx's letter, are fully disposed to render every facility,
and even break through their ancient laws and cus-
toms (a vast concession for an Austrian Cabinet), in
order to establish a line for the Indian mail, through
their States. The following extract confirms the assertion and
describes one of the many wonders of the day :—"I may
mention," says he, " an extraordinary instance of Austrian
alacrity and attention. His Excellency the Governor of
Trieste, count STADION, Chevalier DE BRUCE, the bead of
the Austrian Lloyd's Company, and all the elite of the mer •
chants, &c„ of Trieste, were waiting for me at Dwino,
though at the hour of half-past twelve at night, and one of
the darkest I ever experienced ; we were guided only to
Dwino by the rockets sent up by them. My passport was
given by order of the Emperor of AUSTRIA, and countersigned
at Vienna by the representative of Belgium, Prussia, Baden
and Bavaria, countries through which I passed; indeed:
I was not asked a question throughout the journey."
The French journals, in order to create a counter-
balance to this, are urging the Government to hasten the
completion of the Lyons and Avignon lines, because, when
these are finished, the passage will be made in much less time
than through Germany. But the German, as well as the
Italian States under the dominion of Austria, are also ac-
tively engaged in forming railways; that from Ostend
to theßhine has long been completed,so is one from Bruschel
to Manheim, and it is not too much to anticipate,
in these days of improvement and change, that there will, in
a short time, be a continued railway route from the English
Channel to the Adriatic. Even in the present state of the
Coeds, the journey was performed with most extraordinary
si seed, when it is known that on the voyage from Alexan-
dri.e;\ to Trieste the steamer experienced a tempest
whi ich caused her to be a day and a half longer than
usu Al. With the plans now in progress for shortening the
the ie occupied in the journey between Bombay and Suez, no
don bt can remain that the whole journey may be accom-
Plialled in twenty-one days, and, with the aid of railroads, in
a. fortnight.. News thus could be brought from Militias,
on the borders of the Punjaub, by steamers down the Indus
its Bombay .;n ten or twelve days, and the entire journey
from Ferozepore to London made in little more than a month.

Madrid journals of the 29th October have been received.
The Gazette of that date contains a royal ordinance by
which two Spanish officers, SANDOVAL and MADERA, who,
bad been serving with the French . army in Africa, are
directed to join the Russian troops in the Caucasus, and re-
port upon their operations. The arrest of Colonel SOLER,
commanding the Regiment San Fernando, in the public
streets, by orders of NARVAEZ, had given rise to some talk
in the metropolis. The story is, that the Commander of the
Forces had intimated his intention to review the regiment on
the 28th, but not arriving at the time appointed, the colonel
had left, concluding that the inspection would not take place.
It appears that the priest who had been ordered to quit
Madrid in twenty-four hours, was the confessor of Don
FRANCISCO DR Paut..t, but the cause for this step has not yet
Wanspired.
Some public business was done on the Bourse on the 29th.
'The Three per Cents. were not
,quoted. The Five per
Cents. were done at 22i cash, and the Debt without Interest,
at 74, cash.

Several of the Paris journals are chiefly occupied with the
affairs of Syria, and the serious misunderstanding which

At the opening of the Paris Courts of Law for the
session on Monday, M. DUPIN the Procureur-General, made
a long speech on the history of the rise and progress of the
common law of France. It contained nothing political, and
was interesting chiefly to the lawyers. In the Journal des
Debate there is a well digested article on the trade of France
With foreign countries, from which we give these brief ex-
tracts:—

" Let us remark, in the first place, that our exchanges with the
north of Europe amounts to 820,000,000, whilst those in the
south are only 710,000,000. The superiority, which was for.
merly in favour of the Mediterranean, is now passed to the North
Seas and the Baltic, and this has arisen from the progress which
Germany has made in commercial and manufacturing enterprises.
Our trade with Belgium has increased from 156 millions to 179
millions, and the difference has been entirely in the purchases
which we make in that country.

" With England our situation with regard to the exchange of
manufactured products is more favourable. Out of 145 millions
of merchandise which she sells us, 54 are manufactured articles, of
which 121 are consumed here ; whilst, out of 144 millions of our
products with which we supply her, 72i millions are articles of
our own manufacturing. What merits particular notice is certain
weakness in our affairs with the Italian peninsula, with Turkey
and Greece. Frem 76 millions our exchanges with the whole of
the Mediterranean have fallen to 65. In 1844 our trade with
the United States, the most important of our commercial allies
next to England, amounted to 33 millions; in Africa (not including
Algeria) our relations make sure but slow progress, and we already
begin to reap the fruit of that foresight of which the Government
gave proofs in multiplying and strengthening our factories on the
coast et Africa between the Seregembic and the Bay of Gabon.
" To sum up, the foreign trade of France, a moment slackened
"r 044 tare given's-Stitt iiVeliefimpulse. Increase appears through-
out every branch, and the progress of neighbouring countries in
manufactures has not by any means injured our exportation. This
is a result which responds in the most satisfactory manner to our
internal activity, and prepares us in a worthy manner for the open.
log of the legislative session of 1846."

The Money and Share Market was very heavy on the
Paris Bourse on Tuesday, owing chiefly, it was said, to a
scarcity of money, as well as some unfavourable advices from
London.

A Cabinet Council assembled soon after two o'clock this
afternoon at the private residence of Sir Robert Peel in
Whitehall-gardens. The Lord Chancellor arrived from his
Court at twenty minutes past two o'clock. The Duke of
Wellington and all the Ministers in town attended.

MORTALITY IN THE METROPOLIS.--We regret to state
that during the week ending Saturday, Nor. 1, there has
been a great increase in the number of deaths, as compared
with several previous weeks. The total number; was 948,
exceeding that of last week by 174. The increase has taken
place chiefly in contagious diseases, and those of the lungs,
and other organs of respiration. The deaths from
measles on the previous week were 52, average 31, while
during the last week they amounted to 87. Those caused
by bronchitis, pneumonia, and consumption, had also in-
creased considerably. The violent deaths were 32, of which
12 were from fractures and contusions, 4 from drowning, 7
from hanging, 6 from burns, and the rest from wounds and
poison. Of these 6 were suicides.

The squadron under the orders of Admiral Par-
seval Deachenes, which was erroneously stated to have been or-
dered to the coast of Morocco, has arrived at Toulon.
BROMSGROVE.—RISE OF WAGES.—It gives us
much pleasure to state that the wages of the operatives at the ex.
tensive works at Stoke Prier were raised last week 10 per cent.
The men's wages were reduced by that amount more than two
years ago, to meet the difficulties of the times, and it is creditable
to the proprietors to find them conceding this increase when better
times had put it within their power.—Worcestershire Chronicle.
CELERY FOR DUCKS.—A writer in the Brigid°
National Pilot says :—" The common duck of the poultry.yard, it
fed (while fattening) copiously upon the tops of the celery plant,
will attain a juciness and a flavour that must call forth unqualified
approbation from every epicure. It is the wild celery plant that
gives peculiarity of enchantment to the canvas back, and the
celery top will add a charm to the duck of the yard that cannot he
conceived. You cannot make a tame bird equal one with the wild
flavour of freedom and foreign travel, but still you can reline on
poultry."

_
THE POOE-HOUSE SYSTEM OF ENGLAND.-
WRETCHEDNESS OF THE MASSES,--,A !ilea heartrending expose
of the misery—the abject wretchedness of the English poor, has
recently been made in the course of an investigation into the con-
duct of the Governor of the workhouse of a place called Andover.
The most sickening details of the sufferings of the unhappy,
wretches confined in this " bastile " are given in the evidence. It
appears that the poor creatures were daily in the habit of fighting
for the putrid fragments of cartilage that adhered to the bones
which came from the " Governor's" table S The sick were robbed
of their necesaries—the female inmates subjected to beastly assaults
—and a systematic course of outrage and cruelty perpetrated for
years under the very noses of the " Guardians of the poor !" And
this is only a sample—one solitary case—of the abject poverty and
misery of the English masses. What a contrast to the condition
of the same classes in this ciountry_!"—:4lmerkon paper.

Earl De Grey has sold his valuable estate ( f
Bracewell, in the West Riding of Yorkshire, together with the
advowson, comprising from 1,200 to 1,300 acres, to Robert Hop.
wood, jun., Esq., of Blackburn.
Land for gardens has lately been offered to the
public near Peterborough, at 101. per acre per annum. This rent
was by some persons considered exorbitant ; but what will those
persons say when they are informed that a small piece of garden
ground has this week been let after the rate of 201. an acre, for
one year P—Lincoln Chronick.

Scripholders a full statement of the receipts and expendit
up to the present moment, and the future anticipated pay-
ments that may be required in the prosecution of the various
Bills before Parliament. In so far we are ready to go
with the Times, and trust that the course adopted
by a few Committees, may be very generally adopted. We
cannot, however, consent to the arguments of our powerful
Contemporary, that the payment into the hands of the Ac-
count-General will c:.eate such a scarcity of money as to de-
range very greatly commercial operations, or to interfere,
to a " panic point," with the state of the currencey•
There is infinitely more in a deficient yield of the
crops to account for the present heavy state of
the Funds, and rise in the value of money, than in
warnings of the Times, which now so complaisantly assumes
to have first put a veto to the formation of any new plans for
railways, and to have checked bubble speculations. The last
principal failure in the Stock Exchange has thrown a gloom
over the market, and which is likely to have an influence for
some days to come, although the party will pay everybody,
and have a large surplus. It is a very important fact that
ought to be borne in mind, that the country markets for
shares have maintained themselves pretty well.
A new Company, the Grand Junction, Great Western,
and South-Western Railway Junction, has appeared in the
market, the shares commanding a slight premium. Pro-
ceeding through Bicester to Slough, it completes the shortest
route from London to Birmingham, Liverpool, and Man-
chester.
Accounts of August 27th, from the Cape of Good Hope,
describe the colony as progressing well, and the result of the
wool sales here excited much satisfaction. The farmers,'
however, complain that Sir Peregrine Maitland's views have
not been carried out, and that cattle thefts were becoming as
frequent as ever, though previously abating. Natal was to
have a lieutenant-governor, judge, recorder, and more
troops.
A higher rate of duty bad been imposed on French Brandy
and other spirits imported into the Cape, and not the growth
of England and her colonies, Is. being the new impost.
