LONDON
Till-FtSDAY MORNING. OCTOBER 13, 1542.

It is a misfortune for England that not only
her rulers, but the bulk of her public writers are
educated at schools and colleges, much more un-
der the guidance of mere classical scholars or of
the clergy than of men acquainted with the af--
fairs of the world. Hence it happens, that while
:N. 'embers of Parliament, and edtitors of public
journals, exhibit an intimate acqr.aintance witlt

SUMMARY OF HEWS

AND
Vitbite Oit.ltittO

" Who runs may read.'

FOREIGN.

The Moniteur Parisien confirms a former announce-
ment in our columns, that the Sugar Bill would be
one of the first questions submitted to the Chambers.
It adds its belief that no decision had been come to
as to the bases of the project of law by the Cabinet,
but a belief prevailed that it would be unfavourable to
the beet-root growers.
A Cabinet Council was held on Saturday at Mar-
shal Souk's hotel. The Duke of Nemours visited
Count Mole and Marshal Valee ; and on the same
clay Count Montalivet had a long audience of the
King of the French, and M. Guizot had conferences
with several political personages.
It is announced that the Duke Decazes, Grand
Referendary of the Chamber of Peers, will bring an
action against M. Cretineau Joly, for announcing the
publication of eighty-three letters alleged to have
been addressed by the Duke to an agent in Grenoble
to provoke the conspiracy of 1816.
The Angsburgh Gazette of the 14th inst. states that
the British Admiral, Mason, had arrived at the
Piraeus, with the intention to proceed to the coast of
Syria, where it was believed Great Britain had deter-
mined to make a demonstration.

The Franconian Mercury annouces that the Prus-
sian Government was seriously occupied with the ar-
rangement of a treaty of commerce with Belgium.
The intelligence from Barcelona comes down to ten
o'clock in the morning of the 13th inst. Most of the
shops and warehouses had remained closed. The
thirteen imilividuals shot on the preceding day were all
either militiamen or civilians.
The accounts from Madrid of the 11th inst. are
without interest.

BETTS' PATENT BRANDY.—The unparal-
leled and still increasing sale of this favourite beverage,
has been attended by its natural consequence—the excitement
of envy in every branch of the Spirit trade. Hence, each sue-
weding year brings to notice competitors, whose announce-
ments, under fallacious pretences and high sounding titles, urge
upon the public notice articles, whose only distiagrv.ishing fea-
ture is their vast inferiolity to the Patent Brandy.
It is to guard purchasers against the consequences of such
attempts, and for that reason only, that J. T. Betts and Co. are
again induced to state, that the Patent Brandy is manufactured
only at the Distillery, No. 7, Smithfield-bars, leading to St.
John-street ; where it may be obtained, pale or coloured, at
Eighteen Shillings per Gallon, of the highest legal strength.

RAILWAYS.

We take the following statement regaiding the
length of railways in this country, and the capital
expended in their formation, from a pamphlet recently
published by Pelham Richardson, entitled, " Rail-
ways, their Uses and Managements :"
" The number of miles of railroad amount to 1,8601,
at a cost of 58,149,1591., being on an average about
31,2461. per mile. With 12 acres of land to a mile,
there will be 22,332 acres of land formed into new
roads, which, at 4001. an acre, would have paid
8,932,8001. If we suppose 100,000 cubic yards of
earth-work per mile, this would give 166,100 cubic
yards of earth moved in their construction, and if we
allow the cost per yard to be ls., 9,305,0001. will
have been expended in manual labour, but the 1r ,ba-
bility is, that the earthwork averages nearer 150,000
cubic yards a mile, and at Is. per cubic yard for
moving it, would give 279,150,000 cubic yards, and
13,957,5001. Suppose the weight of the rails to ave-
rage 561bs. per yard, some being lighter and some
heaver, reaching to 751b5., and taking off sets and sta-
tioas, to make all the lines as having a double set of rails,
and allow the average cost to be 10/. 10s. per ton,
13,101,440 yards of railway would give 327,536
tons of rails, costing 3,439,218/., besides sleepers,
blocks, chairs and pins, turn-plates, &c. There are
also the viaducts, bridges, stations, and works of all
descriptions ; warehouses, inclined planes, &c. All
these materials and labour are, with the .exception of
some of the timber, home produce. The number of
locomotive engines may equal in number, perhaps,
970, which, with their tenders, must have cost at
least 145,5001.; and when we look at this beautiful
piece of machinery, and see that power, equal to 70
and 80 horses, is einbowelled in so small a compass,
fitted with a delicacy and neatness more resembling a
watch than could have been expected from a draft of
such power, we must admit that some capital may
fairly have been sunk in the invention, construction,
and perfection of such a piece of mechanism. Again,
there are the carriages of all classes, giving employ-
ment to an immense variety of persons, and which
must have cost not less than 2,000,0001., besides
trucks, horse carriages, sheep and cattle pens, &c. These
machines carry yearly upwards of 15,000,000 persona,
besides goods, coals, stock, horses, carriages, letters,
and parcels ; and through these means, wherever rail-
ways exist, distance is reduced at least one-half, the
cost of travelling much reduced, and the comfort in-
creased a thousand fold."

SPAIN.

MADRID, DEC. 11.—The official accounts from Bar-
celona, published in the Gazette this morning, are of
the 7th instant. The city enjoyed that kind of thin-
quillity which defeat and necessity produce amongst
a coerced mob—and which decision and energy on
the part of the Government can preserve. Barcelona
indeed can be kept quiet; but the degree of provin-
cialism manifested on this occasion by theßarcelonese
indicates clearly that this can only be effected by a
combination of judicious and rigorous measures. The
cry of " death to the Castilians," heard pretty gene-
rally in the streets bf Barcelona on the loth and 16th
ultimo, should not be lost on the central Government
of Spain. To leave arms in the hands of the lower
orders of the population of that city would be mad-
ness. Fifteen thousand muskets, we are told, were
accordingly already taken from the insurgents. It
being supposed that there were still out five or six
other thousands, twenty-four hours more were given
for their delivery. The houses shut up and suspected
of containing arms were also to be opened and searched
in the presence of the Magistrates in their respective
districts. Of course, for some time at least, a national
guard will be dispensed with in Barcelona, and the
garrison be kept by troops of the line alone. Down
to the date of our latest news, no executions had taken
place. Military tribunals, however, had been appointed,
both for the trial of the officers of the army who had
surrendered, and the prisoners made on the surrender
of the place.
That which has been talked of as news here for the

last few days would be better called lies. Reports,
for example, of a change of Ministry, and the exile
of the Infante, cried about the streets in all shapes
and forms, come properly under this head. The trash
written in all the opposition journals, too, about our
ships having fired upon Barcelona, and laving sup-
plied Montjuich with shells for the destruction of the
cotton manufactories in the city, is all false, and de-
signedly inserted to injure the British name and cha-
racter here. These falsehoods, though most mali-
ciously intended, cannot fail to recoil upon the authors
of them, and the parties who pay for their publication.
From the provinces the news continues to be most
satisfactory. With a few exceptions, the municipal
elections will have gone in favour of the Govern-
ment and of public tranquillity. The old majority of
the Congress, or as it is now • called the minority, is
actively employed in preparing for a new election, in
the event of that measure becoming necessary.

BANKRUPTCY.-(THIS DAY.)

• IN RE JAMES SEDDON.
The bankrupt in this matter was a Manch'ster
warehouseman, and had passed through the Insolvent
Court in the year 1832, at which time he was de-
scribed as a gentleman. The amount of debts he then
owed was 2,7(0/., a part of which it was alleged had
been contracted without due means of payment. The
debts now in his schedule, as a tradesman, amounted
in the aggregate to about 12,0001., while it was calcu-
lated that his available assets would realise only about
1,1001. A number of debts due to him also appeared
in the schedule, but although they were stated to be
about 4,0001., scarcely .1010/. could be realised from
them to the estate.
The choice of assignees having been fixed for this
day, after the admission of a few proofs, MeSsrs. J.
Slater, of the firm of Slater and Campbell, and Wm.
Weston, of Bishopsgate-street, were appointed.
IN RE RICHARD NEWCOMBE.
The adjourned examination of this bankrupt having
stood over to this day, from the 15th ultimo, in order
to produce certain vouchers for goods shipped to
Bengal, and also a banker's book to show the amount
of money drawn from Coutt's hank from the 17th of
March last to the 25th of June, the date of the
issuing of the fiat ; it was again resumed, and after
affording the required information, he was declared
entitled to pass his final examination and get his cer-
tificate.

Browell, the steward of Guy's Hospital, under the
following circumstances.
The defendant having a son that died in Guy's
Hospital, went with a dozen more of his countrymen
that morning for the corpse. While the porters were
bringing the coffin down, the defendant and his com-
panions made a rush with the view of getting pos-
session of the deceased. In their attempt to effect
that object, the defendant struck the steward of the
Hospital, and knocked him down. It appeared that
the defendant and his friends had an impression that
the body of his son was going to be dissected, but this
was removed by the steward, who said that
the practice of the Hospital was to deliver up deceased
persons to their friends, and that the porters were in
the act of bringing down the corpse of the defendant's
son when the assault was committed.

The MAGISTRATE having remarked on the absurd
notion that many of the lower orders of the Irish had
with respect to persons who died in the Hospital
being dissected, the defendant was fined 10s.

POST-OFFICE.

TO THE EDl7'O7l? OF THE SUN.
Sin,—lf I were to prefer the complaint of which
I am about to inform you, directly to the Post-office
authorities, I should most likely be called upon to
point out the parties whom I should consider in fault;
therefore, I hope the case will be remedied by your
mention of it in your journal, without my adopting
the more unpleasant alternative.
Some time since the Post-office authorities supplied
the different country postmasters with placards for
public exhibition, stating that "stamps at id. each,
and covers at lid. and 21d. each," might be had at
the office. One of my complaints is that this placard
is withdrawn from the public view; and another, that
if you ask for a penny stamp,eyou will be told " We
are out of them ; ' and a further complaint is, if you
ask for a cover or envelope, you are told " We do not
sell less than a packet."
I do not mean to say that if a party being aware
of the postmaster's duty were to demand and insist
upon having a single cover, it would be refused to
him ; but parties in the country not being so aware of
the postmaster's duty, would go away without that
which he ought to have been supplied with. With
regard to the penny stamps, which the country post-
masters try to be out of, I would suggest that an order
should be given to them that whenever they had less
than a single sheet of stamps (viz. 240), they should
be' ordered to apply for more, and strict orders should
be given to them to take care that they are not with-
out

RAILROADS IN GERMANY.

We have already, on two occasions (Aug. 15 and
Sept. 20), noticed at some length the progress making
in Germany in the construction of railroads. That
progress continues, and the extent to which the system
is likely.to be carried, bids fair, at no distant period,
to exercise a most powerful influence over all Europe.
It is our intention, therefore, from time to time, to
direct the attention of the readers of the Morning
Chronicle to what is doing in this matter among our
neighbours.
Since our last report, another has been added to the
list of active German railroads, by the opening of that
between Berlin and Frankfort on the Oder. The
number of German railroads is, consequently, now
twenty-one, and the following table, made up from
official returns, will show the number of passengers
who availed themselves of each during the first ten
months of the present year, and the gross receipts
during the same time :

intended resignation of Mr. Phillips, the Under Se-
cretary for the Home Department.
It is a singular coincidence, that when Queen Mary
came from France tc her Scottish dominions, she ar-
rived in the Leith roads before the members of the
Council-chamber were stirrirg. Provost Maccalzeon
flew down the street with the silver keys in his hand, and
made as much haste as any member of a city corpo-
ration could do, but neither he nor the Baillies arrived
in time.

COURT OF ALDERMEN.

Yesterday a Court was held for the transaction of
business.

Among the Gaol Reports presented by the Sheriffs
was one from Mr. Wadd, the surgeon of Whitecross-
street prison, which stated that one very severe case
of spasmodic cholera had occurred since the period
of the last Report, and that it had yielded to strong
medical treatment ; that several slight cases had ma-
nifested themselves, but were soon cured, and that
at the present time the inmate's were in good health.
This Report satisfactorily contradicts the rumour
which had got abroad at the time of the death of
Mr. Barrett, the late keeper of the prison, that the
cholera was raging within the building.

SILVER, SUPERSEDED, and those corrosive
and injurious metals called Nickel and German Silver
supplanted by the introduction of a new and perfectly matchless
ALBATA PLATE. C. WATSON (late ALDERMAN)
41 and 42, Barbican, aided by a person of science in the ansal-
gation of metals, has succeeded in bringing to public notice the
most beautiful article ever yet offered : possessing all the rich-
ness of Silver in appearance—with its durability and hardness
—with its perfect sweetness in use—undergoing, as it does, a
chem,cal process, by which all that is nauseous in mixed metals is
entirely extracted—resist ng all acids, may be cleaned as Silver,
and is manufactured into every article for the Table and Side.

C. Watson begs the Public will understand that this metal
is peculiarly his own, and that Silver is not more different from
Gold, than his metal is from all others ; the Public will there-
fore have no difficulty in discovering the animus which directs
the virulent attacks made against him, by a party who is daliy
suffering from the unparalleled success which has marked the
progress of nis New Plato since its introduction. C. W.,
unlike this party, courts comparison, feeling confident that the
result will establish its pre-eminence.

small, of Foreign Wheat fair. There has not been
much done in the Wheat Trade since Monday, but
the prices of all qualities have been firm. In other
Grain there was also a slack trade, without any varia-
tion _from last report. Flour sold rather better at
the late advance.

The number of BeaKs and Sheep being short, and
the weather more favourable, the best qualities sold
readily at the present quotations. The demand for
