GLASGOW PIG IRON TRADR.—To-day and yes-
terday no iron has been offering under 80s. per ton ; but at
th price no transactions have taken place. From the num-
berisof sellers to-day, at the above figure, we consider the rise
from 725. Gd. to 80s: as temporary, and caused by one or two
buyers appearing in the market on the intimation of the
7'imea on corn-law repeal. In the face of a stock at pre-
sent considerably over two hundred thousand tons, and
makers now in a position for making fresh contracts, we
cannot see how prices can advance, but will decline. It is to
be expected that tightness of money will increase for a month
at least; in which case, consumers' wants will alone require
to be supplied, which is a trifle compared with the present
daily production, which is ten thousand per week.— Glasgow
National.

The town of Brakel, in Rhenish Prussia, with its
magnificent Capuchin Convent, was almost entirely destroyed
by tire on the 21st ult. The church and a few stone build-
ings were alone left standing.—Galipaai.
London, England, 1845-12-13

THE

NEW MINISTRY.

Lord JOHN RUSSELL left town for Windsor at two
o'clock to-day, accompanied by the Marquis of
LANSDOWNE. His return is not certain, and until
he comes back nothing will of course be known.

It is generally believed, in the best-informed circles,
that the caution requisite in taking so important a
trust is the only cause of consideration ; but no
doubts are entertained in any quarter that the PEEL
Administration is totally and for ever at an end,
and that a new Government will be formed as
quickly as possible.
It is also believed that Sir ROBERT PEEL, and the
more rational of his Cabinet, will be found sup-
porters of Lord JOHN RussELL's measures.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)

Lord JOHN ItussicLL left town this afternoon for
IVindsor Castle, to have an audience of her MAJESTY.
The Duke of BEDFORD arrived in town to-day
from Woburn Abbey, and visited his Noble Relative
in Chesham-place.

It is understood that Sir JAMES GRAHAM had an
interview with Lord JOHN RUSSELL on Thursday.
Rumours have been very prevalent during the day
that Lord JOHN RUSSELL is not likely to form an
Administration.

LONDON AND CROYDON RAILWAY.
The Proprietors of this Company are respectfully informed
that since the Meeting of the Proprietors of tile Brighton Company,
on the 9th inst., the following correspondence has passed between
the twe Boards

London and Brighton Railway, Loudon Terminus,
Dec. 11, 1845.
Dear Sir,—This Board having submitted to their Proprietary the
present position of the negotiation for settling the detailed terms of
amalgamation of the Croydon Company with this Company I am in-
structed to express a hope that the negotiation may still be brought
to a satisfactory issue. It is the opinion of the Proprietors of this
Company that the terms contained in my letter of the sth ult., of
which a copy is inclosed, should be again submitted to your Board,
and I will therefore thank. yen to bring the subject under their con-
sideration, and favour ma 'with their decision.
I ain, dear sir, yours truly,
(Signed) T. I. BLICKTON.
R. S. Young, Esq., Secretary, London and Croydon
Railway Company.

London and Croydon Railway Company,
Fecretary's Office, London Terminus, Dec. 13, 1845.
Dear Sir,—l am requested "to acknowledge the receipt of your
otter of the 11th inst., and to assure your Board of the continued
desire of the Directors of this Company to bring to a satisfactory
issue the negotiation for the amalgamation of the two Companies.
With respect to the terms contained in your letter of the sth ult.,
and which are again submitted to this Board, I have to state that the
Directors remain of the same opinion, that the resolution passed at
the meeting of the Delegates of the two Boards ought to have been
adhered to. As, however, the Directors of this Company never did
consider that circumstance of sufficient importance to justify the
breaking off of a negotiation, entered into at the unanimous desire
of the Proprietors of both Companies, they are prepared to resume
the negotiations which were interrupted by your letter of the 21st
ult., and to meet the Brighton Directors on the terms now proposed.
I am, dear sir, yours truly,
(Signed) R. S. YOUNG, Secretary.

IRISH GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.

Mr. ESTCOURT brought up the report of the Standing

proposed to be added might be adopted by the House.
Mr. WARBURTON presented a petition from the Grand
Canal Company against the clauses.
Mr. F. FRENCH said that the petition was only intended
as a repetition of the annoyance to which the promotersof the
Bill had been subjected.
Lord G. SOMERSET could not conceive what objection
could be made to the clauses.

The clauses were then brought up, read a first, second, and
hird time, and ordered to be added to the Bill by way of r►der.
The Bill then pa-sed.

RAILWAY GA UGES.

Colonel DAWSON DAMER appeared, and presented a
message from the Queen, announcing that having received an
address recommending uniformity of gauge in the construction
of future railroads, her Majesty would take the matter into her
gracious consideration.
Mr. HUME wished to knew what was the revenue and ex-
penditure of the province of Sinde ?
Lord JOCELYN said that fifty-three lace of rupees had been
received, and twenty-one had been expended.
CONFLICT WITH THE POLICE AT BALLYHASIG.
In answer to a question from Mr. BOUVERIE,
Sir T. FREMANTLE said that he had every reason to
believe the report which had been circulated of the unfortunate
catastrophe at Ball)hasig was correct. It was true that several
lives had been lost. With respect to the police, he trusted,
from the information he had obtained, they were not to blame.
From the appearance of the case, as it at present stood, it was
evident the police had acted in defence of their lives. A pri-
soner was attempted to be rescued, and the police would not
have acted consistently with their duty to have offered no re.
sistance. An attempt had been made to rescue the prisoners,
and it was only when the police considered their lives in danger
that they fired on the people.
Mr. SHEIL—I wish to know has any inquiry been directed
by the Government on the subject of this outrage?
Sir T. FREMANTLE—A coroner's inquest was held on
Thursday (yesterday), and if the investigation on the inquest
did not bring out all the circumstances, or the result was consi-
dered unsatisfactory, the Government would consider it to be
their duty to institute fresh inquiry.—( Cheers. )
Mr. M. GIBSON wished to ask the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer if he meant to take the report on the Bill of Exchanges
Bill this evening? If so, it was his intention to move that the
report be re-committed, so that several alterations might be
made.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER could not. at
that moment state what course he would take on the subject.
FOREIGN SUGAR.

Lord J. RUSSELL wished to know from the Right Hon.
Gentleman at the head of the Government (Sir R. Peel),
whether or not it would be in his power to lay upon the table
of the house those papers relative to Cuba sugar, of which his
Right Hon. Friend (Mr. Labouchere) hail given notice o mo-
tion for the isroilu2t ion on the previou evening.
Sir it PEEL said he thought he could, without preju-
dice to the public interest, lay on the table of the House ex-
trao:s from the papers to which the Noble Lord (J. Russell)
adverted.
PROVISION FOR RETIRED NAVY CAPTAINS.
Calvan PECIIELL begged leave to ask a question of the
Chancellor of the Exchequer. Ile understood last session
that the First Lord of the Adminitc intended to propose a
measure providing fur the retirement of certain naval captains.
Now, he would v'iah to alt the Right Hon. Gentleman
whether he intended to bring forward a supplemental vote to
that effect this session?

THE IRISH SOCIETY V. THE LORD BISHOP OP DERRY.

Sir THOMAS WILDS resumed his arguments in this case on be-.
half of the plaintiffs in error v. they Irish Society. The question
in the case was, who had the right of presentation to certain
livings in the county of Coleraine, in the diocese of Derry—the
Irish Society or the Bishop of Derry. The case came before their
Lordships upon a writ of error from the Court of Exchequer
Chamber in Ireland, which Court decided in favour of the right of
the Bishop of Derry. The case appears likely to occupy several days.

THE HARTLEPOOL RAILWAY COMPANY V. THE CLARENCE RAILWAY

COMPANY.
The arguments in this case, which came before the Court upon
two demurrers and motions, occupied his Honour the whole day.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, July 3.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Gou Lau )
IN RE JOHN AND JOHN R. BRAY.
This day was fixed for the adjourned last examination of
the bankrupts, who carried on business as wine-merchants in
Mincing-lane, and whose bankruptcy caused a panic in the
trade that has not yet subsided. The Court was crowded to excess.
Mr. Bovill appeared to oppose the bankrupt's application
upon the part of the assignees, Mr. E. James for John Reay,
sen., and Mr. Lloyd, as solicitor for John Robert Reay, jun.
The joint balance-sheet commenced on the Ist of January,
1844, when the partnership took place, on which day there
was a balance in the ledger to the credit of John Reay of
95,722/. 6s. 2d., which had been reduced in the bal ince-
sheet by writing off bad debts previously. The following is
the result :
The creditors amount to •• £ 97,340 5 1
And the liabilities to

£212,700 2 3

The mots consist of debts ... . £16.932 19 0
Good bills 1,799 7 6
Stock

£32,584 14 1
But a great deal of this stock belonged to John Reay before his
nephew joined him, and is now in his name in the docks, and
it is a question whether it belongs to his separate estate. The
official assignee said that his report mentioned several facts
which were highly creditable to the bankrupts. After a great
deal of discussion, it was agreed that all objections should be
reduced to writing, and that the bankrupts should be allowed
time to answer them.
