THE CHAMBERS.

The Chambers will be constructed on an Improved principle, and
be supplied with office, furniture, desks, book-cases, &c. Water will
be laid on to every story—there will he a complete system of venti-
lation and heating throughout the building, and gas-lights fitted to
each apartment. The whole will form one of the most commodious
offices in the City, available for public Companies or private in-
dividals.

THE GENERAL GOODS DEPOT AND RAILWAY
WAREHOUSES.
These will be on a most extended scale, and established on the
same principle as the dry docks at Liverpool, which, it is presumed,
will be found most convenient for the country manufacturer, and the
export and Import merchant for the warehousing or transit of home
or foreign produce. To the London merchant and metropolitan
commercial trading establishment this department will prove very
useful and economical, as goods can be forwarded to the Central
Depot, and from thence be conveyed to any of the termini of the
metropolitan railways for country destination or foreign shipment ;

M RE MAJOR.

In this case an insolvent came up for his protection order,
so as to enable him to take the benefit of the new Act.

Mr. HuGnEs appeared to support the application (which
would rescue the insolvent from further incarceration). The
question was -whether a party in custody on an' attach-
ment for contempt in not paying costs was entitled to the
benefit of the Act? He contended that directly costs were
taxed they became part of the debt.
The Learned COMMISSIONER—Yes, but it is not a debt re-
covered by judgment, and this act does not satisfy it.

-
Sin,—The First October Newmarket Meeting for sport is
decidedly not first-rate, yet it equals, if not surpasses, many
of its predecessors. It commences on Tuesday with, as usual,
the Trial Stakes, the winner of which I think Lord G. Ben-
tinck will furnish. Colonel Peel will win the Buckenham
Stakes with Queen Anne. The Grand Duke Michael Stakes
will bring out the following, viz.: Wood Pigeon, colt by Jerry
out of Turquoise, colt by Slane out of Cobweb, Leopard, Idas,
Sir Francis, Worthless, and perhaps Pug and sister to Ma
Mie. Now of these I consider sister to Ma Mie, Sir Francis,
Leopard, and Cobweb colt to have not the shadow of a chance.
W orthless and Pug have a respectable outside chance, nothing
more. The race will lay entirely between the Turquoise
colt, Wood Pigeon, and Idas, which I expect will be rather
close, giving a slight preference to Idas.
The Hopeful Stakes looks well for Cuckoo or Princess
Alice, Mr. Gratwicke's filly being close up at the finish.
The match between Prologue, Bst. 131 b., and Collingwood,
sst. 131 b., will be won by the former.
On Wednesday, Kent's stable will carry off the St. Leger
Stakes. _ _ _ _ _ _

Colonel Peel's Garry Owen will receive forfeit from Lord
Maidstone's Arcanus, or should the match be run, it will go
to the former for a certainty.
On Thursday, Tug-Net, or the colt by Slane, out of Volup-
tuary, will make sure of the Rutland Stakes.
The 50 Sovs. Stakes to Ides, Faunae finishing a good
second. •
In the match between Captain Phelus and Collingwood
over the T.Y.C.,1 expect the latter will be very near winning.

LONDON, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER so, 1845

The election of a Chief Magistrate of the City of
London, at all times an object of natural curiosity and
excitement, may be easily converted into a question of
personal instead of party interest. We lament to find
that Mr. Alderman T. WooD is destined again, for the
third or fourth time, to experience, in his own per-
son, the unscrupulous eagerness with which political
animosity will enlist into its service the most
unwarrantable assumptions of private prepossessions or
prejudice. On a former occasion we entered so largely
into the exposition of the injustice which we conceived
to have been brought into play against this gentleman's
legitimate pretensions to the highest of civic honours,
that we should feel ourselves guilty of dispa-
raging the force of those pretensions were we to
renew our exposure of the miserable objections
on which they have been hitherto challenged. But, in
the course of his very sensible address of yesterday to
the Livery, Mr. Alderman T. WOOD reduced them to a
simple and forcible statement, which adequately demon-
strated all their absurdity. After noticing the fact of
his own rejection and the election of Mr. Alderman
JOHNSON to be Lord Mayor, he apprised the Livery that
he understood there had been, in the Court of Aldermen,
two objections distinctly taken to him—the one, that he
was not sufficiently wealthy duly to discharge the
important office of Lord Mayor ; the other, that he had
some years ago embarked in a speculation that turned
out a failure. It is impossible not to feel astonishment
at the latter circumstance being relied on for a ground
of disqualification at a time like this, when the
whole City of London is steeped to the very lips
in a full tide of scrip speculation. Mr. Alderman
WOOD'S account of his unfortunate connexion with the
Talacre Company, has always appeared to us so
frank and explicit, that we could never, for our own
parts, comprehend the reasonableness of that scepticism
which made it expedient to refer his case to the
minute inspection of third parties. But their
examination and report resulted in that which

DISTRESSED CONDITION OF THE

•
SHOEMAKERS OF NEW YORK.
(From the New York Tribune.)
There is no class of mechanics who average so great
an amount of work for so little money as the journey
men shoemakers. The number of journeymen out of
employment is also large, and out of all just proportion.
There are hundreds of them in the city constantly wan-
dering from shop to shop in search of work, while many
of them have families in a state of absolute want. One
by one the articles of their furniture have been sold to
supply bread which the dishearteiwd workman could not
earn, and at last the family are turned out of their
miserable garret or cellar because they cannot pay
their rent. Even those who work fare badly enough ;
as to deprive life
andit ginhdt a I:h
ge of breath. But
for those entirely out of situations the case is still worse.
We have been in more than fifty
ofa evmearxoinfgthseamveltivhee in

cellars, in different
parts of the city, each inhabited by a shoemaker and
his family. The floor is made of rough plank laid

both. In one corner is a squalid bed, and the
room elsewhere is occupied 17 the work bench, a
cradle made from a dry-goo s i.
oox, two or three
broken and seatless chairs, a stewpan, and a kettle.
Here is the whole of that thing so noble in the abstract,
so lofty in the destiny intended for it, so full of every
source of joy and gladness—a family of human beings.
Here they work—here they cook, they eat, they sleep,
they pray—if to pray they have not forgotten. They
procure a little something to eat by the chance jobs of
gentlemen's or children's mending brought in by the rich
people above ground in the neighbourhood, who are not
celebrated for paying a poor cobbler

Now this picture is faithfully drawn—not over-coloured
in any one particular. We have written nothing that
we have not seen over and over again with our own
eyes. We permitted our correspondent to state his case
in a former number, in his own laugdage. It is doubt-
less well as far as it goes ; but it does not touch the dark
shades in the condition of the shoemakers in this city.
They are the worst paid, and live the least like life of all
men who have spent years in learning trades that they

The geographical position of Worcester has caused its adoption as
the point where the broad gauge trunk:lines of the west are te have a
common terminus. From Oxford the Great Western Company have
decided on constructing a line of rail :—anether project under the pa-
tronage of the same powerful direction is now before the public.
uniting Worcester with Warwick ; and, that the broad gauge will be
carried from Worcester into Wales, and to the Irish packet stations
on that coast, is now no longer doubtful. This undertaking will com-
plete a series of great avenues of iron-road, whose ramification
from Worcester will render every part of the kingdom directly
accessible from that city. Passing up the Severn Vale, where
it will disclose a succession of picturesque scenes, it reaches
Stourport, and proceeding thence through Kidderminster, arrives at
Rewdley. This district is one of the chief seats of our carpet manu-
factures, and in the towns here named, exclusive of the inter►ening
districts, upwards of 30,000 persons are located. Leaving Stourbridge
a little te the east, the line is taken to Itridgenorth, a town enjoying
an active inland trade, and possessing woollen manufactures and iron
works, that give employment te a population of about 15,000. Pass-
ing through or near to Much Wenlock, Broseley, and Madeley, from
which place there will be a branch to Shrewsbury, the line ascends
Colebrook Dale, and approaching in its course Wellington and Wom
enters Whitchurch. From this central place a branch will be formed
to Norwich via Stoke, forming a junction with the Liverpool and
Crewe Railway. The trunk line will continue from Whitchurcb, and
passing through or near Malpas, have its northern terminus in the
city of Chester.
_ _ _

In estimating the probable amount of revenue which the Worces-
ter and Chester Railway may be expected to yield, many sources of
profit present themselves, such are the dense population located along
the length of the Severn Vale, and the enriching works of industry
in which they are engaged. Amongst the latter may be mentioned
the china manufactories of Worcester, the iron, coal, and earthen-
ware works at Broseley and other places ; the agricultural produce
brought to Stourport market ; the inexhaustible fields of coal and
mines of iron ore in the vicinity of Colebrook Dale, Ironbridge, and
the districts to the east of Shrewsbury generally.
In calculating the cost of construction unusual advantages are also
obvious. The line traverses a district affording levels of several
miles in extent, and with a surface peculiarly favourable. The resi-
dent population, disappointed by the postponement of promised pro-
have warmly espoused the present, and the labouring popula-

Mr. HUGHES appeared to support the application (which
would rescue the insolvent from further incarceration). The
question was whether a party in custody on an attach.

taxed they became part of the debt.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—The First October Newmarket Meeting for sport is
decidedly not first-rate, yet it equals, if not surpasses, many
of its predecessors. It commences on Tuesday with, as usual,
the Trial Stakes, the winner of which I think Lord G. Ben-
.

thick will furnish. Colonel Peel will win the Buckenham
Stakes with Queen Anne. The Grand Duke Michael Stakes
will bring out the following, viz.: Wood Pigeon, colt by Jerry
out of Turquoise, colt by Slane out of Cobweb, Leopard, Idas,
Sir Francis, Worthless, and perhaps Pug and sister to Ma
Mie. Now of these I consider sister to Ma Mie, Sir Francis,
Leopard, and Cobweb colt to have not the shadow of a chance.
Worthless and Pug have a respectable outside chance, nothing
more. The race will lay entirely between the Turquoise
colt, Wood Pigeon, and Idas, which I expect will be rather
close, giving a slight preference to Idas.
The Hopeful Stakes looks well for Cuckoo or Princess
Alice, Mr. Gratwicke's filly being close up at the finish.
The match between Prologue, Bst. 131 b., and Collingwood,
sst. 131 b., will be won by the former.
On Wednesday, Kent's stable will carry off the St. Leger
Stakes.

Colonel Peel's Garry Owen will receive forfeit from Lord
Maidstone's Arcanus, or should the match be run, it will go
to the former for a certainty.
On Thursday, Tug-Net, or the colt by Slane, out of Volup-
tuary, will make sure of the Rutland Stakes.
The 50 Sovs. Stakes to Ides, Paulton's finishing a good
second.
In the match between Captain Phelus and Collingwood
over the T.Y.C.,1 expect the latter will be very near winning.
I am, Sir, yours, &c.,
THE SPIRIT OF THE TURF.

Monday, 2 P.M.
P.S. Jenny Wren, Pantasa, I-am-not-aware, and Wee Pet,
are my pick for the Cesarewitch Stakes, the first and third
being in splendid trim, Jenny Wren will be near winning
this stake, if well on the day. Semiseria, Nottingham, Croton
Oil, and Mongrel are the best " in " for the Cambridgeshire
Stakes, all four being in first-rate condition.

The usual effect of railways is to treble the amount of
traffic. From the im'nense back country which will
be opened by the great lines to lead fro "a Carmarthen,
and from the great accommodation thus afforded to a
trade at present carried en under the peculiar disad-
vantages of mouytainous roads and heavy tolls, even
this increase will in all probability be much exceeded
on the proposed line ; but as the object is rather to
under-estimate than to exceed the traffic, instoad of
adopting even the finial computation, the probable
