At a MEETING, hell at SUDBURY, on Monday, Feb. 3,
The MAYOR in the Chair,
Mr. Fearon, the solicitor for the Company, explained the plan of
the proposed line, and it was
Resolved unanimously, That it Is of the utmost importance to the
interests of this borough to prevent a diversion of the traffic from Nor-
wich to bailor:, which has so long. passed through this place.
That it appears that the Essex and Suffolk Railway, by passing to
the west,of the town, with a station at North-street, will prove the
cheapest and best line that could be adopted, avoiding the expense of
a long viaduct or embankment, and the danger of penning back the
Foods in the Stour valley, and preventing any interference with the
Stour navigation, and that this meeting accordingly pledge them-
selves to its support.
That Robert Mapletoft, Esq. Chairman of the Bury Quarter Ses-
sions, be requested to act as local secretary.
And the following gentlemen, all of whom are subscribers, were
constituted a Local Committee, with power to add to their

BUCKINGHAM ELECTION.

BUCKINGHAM, MONDAY.-To-day, at eleven o'clock,
Sir Thomas Francis Fremantle was re-elected for
this borough. There being no opposition, there was
neither stir nor bustle in the place. A little after
eleven, Mr. H. Smith, the Mayor, took his seat in the
Town-hall. He was supported by the Rev. Mr. Cot-
ton, Captain Dews, Rev. Mr. Sylvester, Rev. Mr.
Fremantle, Alderman King, Sir Thomas Francis
Fremantle, Mr. Humphrvs Humphrys, ' Mr. F.
Bartlett, Mr. Parrott, Messrs. D. King, Stowe,
Blackwell, Salmon, &c.
After the usual formalities were gone through,
The Rev. Mr. COKER rose and said—Not many
months had elapsed since the Mayor had called them
together for a similar purpose to the present, upon
which occasion Sir T. Fremantle was chosen their
representative without dissent. He expected the same
would he the result to-day, because his opinions had
undergone no change, nor had any change taken place
in the opinions of his constituents. Of course they
were aware of the cause of the vacancy. It was be-
cause Sir Thomas Fremantle had been appointed to
a higher office under Government than the one he
previously held. That promotion was not his seeking.
The Government looked out for the best man to fill
the place, and they selected Sir Thomas Fremantle.
Had that gentleman consulted his own ease he would
not have crossed the Irish Channel—he would not
have embarked on the stormy sea of Irish politics.—
(Hear, hear.) He would, on the contrary, have re-
, mained where he was, and enjoyed his otium cum dig-
nitate. He could not but admire him for the step he
had taken, and those who knew him well would
know that he would well perform the duty he had
undertaken.—(Cheers.) Even that master of vitupe.
ration, Daniel O'Connell, could only say of him that
he was a nice man for a small tea party.—(Laughter.)
Mr. O'Connell was accustomed to the blustering of
repeal dinners, and held in contempt the milder pro-
ceedings of the tea-table ; yet it came with a very bad
grace from so profound a teetotaller. Nothing
could he a stronger testimony in any one's favour than
that Mr. O'Connell, who had at command the whole
vocabulary of abuse, could say nothing severer.—
(Hear.) It might be said that his new duties might
take him away, and occupy him too much, to the
prejudice of their interests, but in those days
there were no such things as absence and space
—railways and steam had obliterated them.
They had heard of an Irish Member who was
in two places at the same time. Why, then,
should not an Irish Secretary be in three, if required?
—(Laughter.) He would not detain them any
longer, more especially as Sir Thomas spoke so much
better than he did. He would, therefore, leave him
to speak for himself; but this he would say, that Sir
Thomas would discharge his duties satisfactorily, and
would not disappoint their expectations. He con •
eluded by proposing Sir Thomas Francis Fremantle,
as a fit and proper 'person to represent them in the
Commons' House of Parliament.—(Loud cheers.)
Mr. C. D. BENNETT very briefly seconded the
nomination.
There being no other candidate proposed, the
MAYOR declared Sir Thomas Francis Fremantle duly
elected.
Sir T. F. FREMANTLE said he almost feared he
was presuming too much on their kindness in offer-
ing himself as their representative for the second time
in nine months.---(Cheers.) His doing so was the
result of no ordinary occurrence, or he would not
have put them to the trouble and inconvenience at
that time of the year. The result, however, of that
day's proceedings had justified him in doing so. He
could assure them that he had not ventured to aspire
to so high a post as the one which he then had the
honour of filling, which was one of the highest in the
i'lrovernment of Ireland, and second only to that of
Prime Minister—(Hear)—but there were frequent
occasions, both in public and private life, when they
were obliged to submit to the wishes and judgment
of others. It was under some such circumstances
that he had accepted the office that had been offered to
him.—(Cheers.) It was most gratifying to him that
the day had passed without an expression of un-
kindness; and the honour they had that day con-
ferred upon him was doubly gratifying on account of
the way in which they had conferred it.—(Cheers.)
He could not help feeling highly proud that he had
been for the ninth time elected Member for the bo-
rough of Buckingham. So short a time had elapsed
since he had last addressed them, that few events had
transpired ; but those few had been of the most gra-
tifying nature. The misunderstanding which at one
time threatened a rupture between England and
France had been settled, and the peace subsisting
between these two nations had been renewed and
cemented by the gracious visit of the King of the
French to our Queen.— (Loud cheers.) The Emperor
of Russia, from his distant empire, and the King of
Saxony, had paid deferential visits to our Gracious
Sovereign.—(Cheers) The interchange of visits be-
tween ambassadors was likely to do good, but the
visits of Kings and Queens were better indications
of the maintenance of peace.—(Loud cheers.) He
would also mention the visit of her Majesty paid to a
loyal nobleman in that county.—(Loud cheers.) As
they had so lately had an opportunity of reading her
Majesty's speech, he would not then!enter into de-
tails of the state of the country ; the commercial,
manufacturing, and shipping interests were highly
prosperous, but it was with, much regret he would
admit that agricultUral produce was much depressed.
The seasons had been against them ; the produce had
been short, and the prices had not risen up to what
might have been expected; in consequence, the seve-
rity of the time was felt to a greater extent than
perhaps any of them present had ever recollected
If any remedy could be applied by Parliament

The Line of Railway now submitted to the Public, rests its claims for
support on the strong general ground of its passing through important
districts in Essex and Suffolk, whose interests haye been almost entirely
neglected in the laying out of the different Railways hitherto executed
or projected for the bene at of the Eastern Counties of England, but
winch possess, nevertheless, population, vealth, and traffic, amply suffi-
cient to defray the charges of forming a direct railway count-mica-
, ion through them, and to afford a.good return for the capital required
for the purpose.
Commencing, at Chelmsford (at the station of the Eastern Counties
Railway), this line will pass close by Braintree, Rocking, Halstead,
Sudbury, and Lavenham, to Bury, running, throughout its whole
extent, of thirty-nine miles, nearly conterminous with the ancient
and most frequented highway from the Metropolis into the heart of
Suffolk.
It will have, for its termini, two important market and assize
towns ; and for its principal intermediate stations, places which are
the seats of considerable and thriving manufactures.
The towns of Bury andSudbury are the two largest in the county
of Suffolk, next to Ipswich ; and Halstead and Braintree, the two
largest in Essex, next to Chelmsford and Colchester.

The population of the hundreds which 1%111 be directly intersected
by it amounts to 133,131, and that of numerous places to which it
would be more available than any other Railway, to 43,500, making
the total population which may be reckoned upon, as necessarily
tributary from local vicinage to this line; not less thau 176,631.
Between the Metropolis and all the places which have been named,
as well as between these places themselves, there is a large existing
traffic, to which the facilities of the railway system could not fail to
give, as in all other cases, a vast extension.
The Chelmer and Stour Navigations, through which the districts
traversed by this Line now receive their supplies of coal, lime, timber,
iron, &c., and which are also the principal outlets for its agricultural
produce, will not only have their own operations greatly facilitated,
and their revenues increased by its formation, but contribute consi-
derably to the income of the Railway. They would be feeders, but in
no respects rivals to it.
But, besides the above local traffic, the Line would command a
very considerable through traffic between London and all the
Northern parts of Norfolk. From time immemorial more than one-
third of all the coach traffic. between London and Norwich, has
passed over the line of road with which this Railway will be con-
terminous.

An extension of the line to Thetford, and also a branch from Brain-
tree to Maldon, by the way of Witham, have been surveyed, and will
form part of the scheme, if required by the Board of Trade.

From calculations which have been very carefully made of the
existing tratllc alone, it appears that, assuming that it would be
trebled by the facilities afforded by railway communication, which is
less than what all railway experience would warrant, the total re-
turns from the projected Railway would amount to 105,4051.
The Line selected for the Railway is the result of an engineering
survey, on which much time and pains have been expended, and will,
it is confidently believed, be found to be not only the very best of which
the nature of the country admits, but one admirably adapted to meet the
wants of its traffic. It will be a Line at once cheaply made and cheaply
worked. The gradients are easy, and well balanced ; the earth-work
will be less than the average earth-work on railways ; and there will
be no constructions of much difficulty or magnitude. The land re-
quired for the Line will be mostly farm-land, of moderate value, and
in no place will it pass through any parks.or ornamental grounds.
Deducting 40 per cent. from the groos returns for the expense of
working the Line (a liberal allowance for a Line of this character), it
would leave a net annual revenue of 63,243/., which would be equal to
8 per cent. on the invested Capital.
Power will be reserved in the Act to allow 4 per cent. interest on
deposits until the completion of the line.
Applications for Shares, in the annexed form, may be made to any
of the Solicitors or Local Agents above-named, or to L. M. Simon,
Esq., Broker, Warnford-court, Throgmorton-street ; or to Thomas
Forsyth, Esq., Broker, Liverpool.

it; but he believed that any Parliamentary mea-
sure that could be proposed would be delusive, and
he would not have them to look to that for help.
He would be always at his post, always ready
to consult the true interest of the British farmer •
and when he ceased to do so, he would cease to be
their representative.—(Loud cheers.) He was per-
sonally unacquainted with Ireland ; but having been
a Member of the House of Commons for seventeen
years, and having taken part in the legislative mea-
sures connected with that country, ho felt the
greatest interest in its prosperity. Taunts had been
thrown out that the English people disliked the Irish;
nothing could be more unfounded.—(Hear, hear) A
more warm-hearted people did not exist than the
Irish—(Cheers)—treat them with kindness, and you
would make them friends. Ireland was an integral
part of the empire, and was to be treated like the
counties of York or Cornwall. Unfortunately there did
exist in that country a strong distrust of the Bri-
tish Parliament, British rulers, and the people.
He, however; did not despair of seeing the day
when the people of that country would look to the
union with this kingdom as their best safeguard.—
(Loud cheers.) , Everything must be done to conci-
liate the people of Ireland, laying down the rule that
the legislative union should be maintained, the Church
upheld, and the laws respected. They were prepared
to hold out the right hand of friendship to their fellow-
subjects, and make friends with them. They might
fail, but it would note be from want of honest inten-
tions or active exertions. He placed the greatek de-
pendence on the nobleman who was Lord-Lieutenant
of that country, and hoped to effect much good there,
notwithstanding the difficulties with which they were
surrounded.— (Cheers.) He was there to state man-
fully his opinions, and to answer any questions that
might be put to him.—(Hear.)
Three cheers were then given for Sir Thomas Fre-
mantle, M.P., and the meeting quietly dispersed.

C. WATSON, 41 and 42; Barbican, and 16, Norton Folgate, aided by
a person of Science in the amalgamation of Metals, has succeeded in
bringing to Public Notice the most beantilhi Article ever yet offered ;
possessing ah the richness of Silver in appearance, with all its dura-
bility and hardness—with its perfect sweetness in use, undergoing, as
it doe. 3, a Chemical Process, by which, all that Is nauseous in mixed

C. WATSON begs the Public will understand that this Metal is
peculiarly his own, and that Silver is not more different from Gold
than kis metal is from all others—on its intrinsic merit alone he
wishes it to be tested, and from the daily

article of universal wear.

THE HISTORY or MARGARET CATCUPOLE, A
SUFFOLK GIRL.—We observe that this work, which has
been for some time announced for publication, is dedi-
cated by the Rev. R. Cobbold to the Marchioness Corn-
wallis who, we understand, is fully acquainted with the
circumstances under which the remarkable history of
the heroine has been prepared for publication. This ex-
traordinary female, born of humble, but honest parents,
underwent the most singular vicissitudes that perhaps
ever marked the career of woman. She was connected
with the captain of a band of smugglers that infested the
Suffolk coast, at the close of the last century, and com-
mitted a crime for which she was tried and condemned
to death at Bury assizes, in the year 1797—was re-
prieved, broke out of prison at Ipswich to join her lover,
was retaken, sentenced again to death, and her punish-
ment changed to transportation for life. Retrieving her
character in Australia, she distinguished herself in many
new adventures, obtained a free pardon, and married a ,
wealthy settler, who left her sole mistress of an im-
mense fortune.
The Grand Munster National Steeple Chase, an
event to whiCh so much interest is attached, vi ill came

There seems to be but little chance present
that we shall be able to sing, With Horace,-solv.tur acris
hyems. One would think-that the winter had made up
its mind to -pass the spring in London; and, as Na-
poleon's grenadier said, on his .riettira from Moseow,
" Si ton attroppe des coups, ce n'est. pas Ck 9 COVB de
Soleil." This return of the fai4lity Thor to knock us
down with his, icy haminer'his treated much stir and
commotion in the magnificent: establishtnent Of Swan
and Edgar, who have been gradually, rolling on in slow
and solemn grandeur like a,zfughty ocean, until the vast
houses in Regent-street, and as-many in Piticadilly, each
in itself as big as a bazaar, have been sWallevied up by
their encroachments. If ':the gen-maker., round the
corner were to follow the 'example of his own double-
barrels, and "go OE4" this would be the most stupendous
shop in the world. .EVery foreigner . is : overwhelmed
with astonishment and admiration atthe florid concep-

magazine which faces Regentsstreet,witk its hing'range
of plate glass, behiad-whfels--the- costliestprOductioas of
Manchester, Lyons, and Paris, are-hung around in
crystal portals, and if your gaze can penetrate through
you will find the same magnificence pervading every de-
partment—the. round..and

buzz, the.stir;the bowin& the measuring,
dieedoo:o2)pythorPri;C:candfroil&lhra;
morn till dewy even, render. it as amusing a scene as if
we were in the bazaar at Constantinopierwhilst the rich-
ness and variety of the silks, which are strewed about
as if dropped in careless haste, ,although-eseh al has
been studied, and the gorgeous splendour of the shawls
and other productions of eastern mauufacture, tend to
heighten the illusion. We generally_ find.- that- every
establishment which his); the good fortune: to attain
celebrity, monopolises the. market for .some .particular
article, but here we find umbrellas, shirts, neckcloths,
and other items of male_attire-in equal excellence and
profusion, with silk; muslin; or cambrics. On leaving
Swan and Edgar's, and' driving rip -Piccadilly, the, eye is
at once attracted by the sumptuousness and elegance of
the various nicnacs which-are plat; it in the windows of
Barry's " temptation shop'..l7-the..Egyptian-hall. What
crowds of passers by and lotinging idlers may be seen
gazing listlessly upon the articles of pia to and beautiful
novelties of Barry. But, if Yon..ventare in take,Shak-
spere's advice, and " put money in thy purse," for there
is enough within this fairy. domain ,to, shake the saint-
Alp of an aechorite, or tempt a miser to loose his purse-
strings. Barry always contrives to outstrip his rivals in
the race for novelties. Something new is always to be
retied in his shop. His bijou de jamille is his last in-
vention. This is a screen of rich crimson velvet, en-
circled by a gilded frame, standing on a-pedestal-of the
same costly material; to several rows.- of hooks are sus- -
pended tiny frames for minatures; so that a whole gallery
of family portraits may be enshrined in the narrow
compass of the glass shade which shelters this elegant
and graceful fabric, lest the dust, or, what is still worse,
aukward servants shall visit it too roughly. Several
buhl desks, some- superb papier de luxe, satchels for
scenting, stamps for marking linen, and a novel kind of
fan, which possesses the power of a peacock, and
spreads itself suddenly into a circle, resembling the tail
of that bird, are amongst the most.recent additions to be
found there.
Notwithstanding all the late new•fangled inventions
wh.cf., under the name of improvements, tried to destroy.
the " power of sound," we find that Broadwood still re-
tains, undiminished, the immense reputation which he
has so long and so deserved)), enjoyed—his.kianos are
to be heard in every corner of the world, their fame is
not confined within the narrow limits of an European
celebrity, for scarcely a ship now, leaves the Thames
without bearing three or four of these instrumental°
our far-distant Indian possessions.
In society, now-a-days, the congregated men look like
a backgammon board. Black waistcoats and white are
only to be seen, and yet near the Quadrant, at Nicoll's,
the famous tailor of Regent-street, there are costly stuffs
for waistcoats, which are as eblouissant as the Bade light
opposite to the United Service Club-house. Some of
these stuffs are positively startling in their magnificence
—none of those vulgar waistcoats which are to be fond
in the Palais Royal, for the endintanches epiciers to sport
at the Prefect's balls in the provinces, but real splendour,
chastened by the most exquisite taste and subdued by
the careful blending of colours, so as to attract attention
without offending the eye l;), over display. Some of
the materials are curiously rich, with the precious metal
worked into the fabric, whilst there are others more
simple, in immense variety. A robe de chambi e, which
they have just completed for an illastriOus personage,
realises our dreams of the Field of the Cloth of Gold.
Besides all this, there are rich Oriental shawls and
cashmeres for morning waistcoats, and velvets in suck
variety as would lead us to suppose that the Lyons and
Spitalfields manufacturers would speedily exhaust' their
ingenuity.
