London, England, 1845-10-22

The Leicester, Melton Mowbray, and Boston Direct Union Rail-
way, by forming a line from Melton Mowbray to Folkingham, will
supply the only link wanting to complete a direct through communi-
cation from Birmingham, Warwick, Worcester, Coventry, and the
manufacturing districts generally, to Boston, as well as by means of
existing and projected railways from Wales and the Bristol Channel,
to that seaport.
The length of the proposed line will not exceed twenty-six miles
and as it will pass through a country very favourable for engineer-
ing purposes, the expense of construction will, it is expected, be less
than the usual average. The admirable position of this railway can-
not fail, it is confidently expected, to command a large return, both
in passengers and in goods traffic.
The Company will be in a situation to deposit the Parliamentary
plans and sections in ample time for complying with the standing
orders, and enabling them to apply for their Act in the ensuing
session.
Applications for shares to be addressed to the solicitors, Messrs.
Potter and Collingridge, No. 5, Ba'iughall-street London; to the

BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

John Donnoghue, a greengrocer in Vere-street, was brought
up charged with violently assaulting Alexander Grady, a
servant of Mr. Ward, in the same neighbourhood. Grady
was driving his master's van up Vere-street, and pulled to
the left that three omnibuses in the street at the time might
pass by. In doing so, however, the van wheel came into
contact with the shutters on which Donnoghue had some
cabbages exposed for sale. No damage was done other than
a few cabbages being thrown off the shutters; but Don-
noghue struck Grady, and a scuffle ensued, in which Grady
was so severely bruised as to require medical advice.
Mr. Law appeared for Grady.
The evidence was conflicting, and the magistrate had some
difficulty for a time in acting; but one of Donnoghue's wit-
nesses, whose evidence was strong in defendant's favour, was
proved, contrary to his own repeated asseverations, to have
been acting temporarily in the employ of Donnoghue.
The MAGISTRATE, having remarked with pain on this
feature of defendant's case, fined him 40s.

[ADVBRTISEMENT.]-A CERTAIN CURE FOR SCRO"
FULA OR KING'S EVIL, BY HOLLOWAY'S PILLS AND OINT-
NT.—A FRIGHTFUL CA SE.—A young man named Bowman,
a shoemaker, living in James-street, Manchester, had been
afflicted from childhood with the most malignant kind of
scrofulous ulcers, covering various parts of his body ; besides
other sufferings, they had deprived him of the use of his left
leg ; yet, extraordinary to relate, this poor fellow has not only
had all the ulcers soundly healed, but has likewise regained the
complete use of his limbs by means of these two wonderful
medicines. Sold at Professor Holloway's Establishment,
241, Strand ( where advice may be had gratis), and by a•-most
all respectable vendors of medicine throughout the civilised
world. _ _ _ _ _ .

BRECHIS.—A rather novel piece of fraud has just
been detected in the fair partner of an individual in this
place, who has for some time past been in the practice of
disposing of her butter, along with many others, weekly, to
the Brechin Grocery Association—the quantities purchased
from the different individuals being all deposited in one place,
and served out to their numerous customers as necessity
required. On finding for sonc.e weeks that a portion of their
stock was neatly made of single pounds, which, when cut,
was found to be nothing but a large quantity of water, the
salesmen determined to discover the delinquent. Having
adopted the necessary steps, by depositing separately the
quantities bought from the different parties, and tried each,
the usual quantity of water gushed out from that portion
sent by the lady above-mentioned. The case is presently in
good hands : we shall notice the result.—Aberdeen Herald.

their Shareholders that they are on friendly terms with the existing
and projected lines in the locality, and they have reason to believe
that at no distant date they will be enabled to announce an important

CRUEL CASE OF DESERTION.—James Panther, a middle-
aged man of respectable appearance, was placed at the bar,
before Mr. Broughton, charged, at the instance of the parish
authorities of St. Luke, with having deserted his wife and
five children, who had been for upwards of two years charge-
able to that parish.
Messrs. Blake and Gregg, the overseers, attended in sup-
port of the complaint, and said that they were instructed to
prosecute the prisoner to the utmost extent, as a more heart-
less and aggravated case had never come under their cogni-
sance.
The prisoner's wife, a woman of very lady-like address
and deportment, stated that her husband had for a length
of time held a commercial appointment in the city, at
a salary of 2001. per annum, and that they had lived
together in comfort and happiness until about two
years and a half ago, when she discovered that
he had formed a clandestine intimacy with a woman
of abandoned character. About a week after the fact had
come to her knowledge, the prisoner suddenly left home
under the pretence of being called into the country upon ur-
gent business, and she had never since seen or heard of him

compelled to throw themselves upon the parish, by which
they had been entirely supported for the last t',o years.

The Belgian Grand Junction Railway will commence at the several
points orfirlemont and Landau towards the north, and Huy, Namur,
Gosselies, and Chatelinean (Charleroi) on the south, anti will directly
connect the provinces of Brabant, ilainault, Liege, Limburg, and
Namur with each other,"-and the Government lines of railway, as
also with the several lines of Liege and Namur, Landen and Hassell,
Louvai❑ and Jemeppe, Samhre anti Meuse, and the Great Luxem-
bourg•

The prJvinees which the railway will unite were found by the
census of I Alt to comprise a population of 2,188,551, and the dis-
tricts which it will traverse are sit lated in the heart of Belgium, And
comprise an area of 10 square miles. The entire length of the Bel-
gian Grand Junction Railway will be 102 English miles, and the in-
variable ride of the Belgian Government not to permit any competing
I se:, must necessarily ens :re to this Company the entire traffic of
the country thrcugh which this line will pass.
This portion of the country is ein:diatically termed the Granary of
Belgium, and, in addition t . its vast agricultural produce, Is rich In
I: onstone, lead, nimble, stone, and slate quanies. It has also nume-
rousdistilleries, extensive breweries, ironworks, and large manufac-
tories of porcelain, glass, paper, beetroot sugar, -unpowder, Ike.
The great coal-fields of Charleroi and Liege, whic gun
the most ex-
tensive in Belgium, win, by means of this line, be enabled to supply
all parts of the kingdom at a very reduced rate.
A considerable saving will be effected in the cost of iron, and of
