LONDON, FRIDAY. AUGUST 29, 1845.

The accounts of Sir WILLIAM MOLES WORTH'S canvass
are most gratifying ; and but that, while two Liberal
candidates are in the field, every possible exertion must
be continued, and expressions of confidence might in-
duce inactivity, we believe his election to be certain.
Mr. Marplot MIALL will repent his refusal to retire or
to submit with ►Sir WILLIAX MOLESWORTH to a ballot o?
the Liberal electors, when such a step would have been
an act of grace ; and Mr. Protestant FILCHER, whose
only hope of success has arisen from Mr. MIALL'S intru-
.

will have to thank his brother anti-Maynoothian
only for leading him into the expense of an unsuccessful
c mtest, which, but for Mr. MALL, would have been all
along utterly hopeless.

It is a funny state of things, when the Government
candidate is the opponent of the Government policy,
and the candidate whom the Government oppose is the
eulogist of their measures, and owes his only difficulties
to befriending the measures of the Government whose
organs vilify him. Yet such is the state of things in
Southwark. Mr. FILCHER is the Government candidate,
and Anti-Maynooth is his war-cry. Sir WILLIAM MOLEs.
WORTH defends Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Maynooth

upon by one of his own party, Mr. MIALL, whom the
Government organs try to prove better than Sir WIL-
LIAM MOLESWORTII, knwiing that every vote gig en by
a L;boral to TALL, will be a vote in aid of FILCHER.

But fumy things have ceas►'d to be funny under the
reign of PEEL ; and however funny the state of the
Southwark candidates, it is now by no means singular.

THE MOORS.

PERTHSHIRE.—The weather throughout last week was
highly favourable for the sportsman, being dry and cool,
with that tendency to frost through the night which
makes the scent lie strong. The unusual precocity of
the young broods of grouse this season, resulting in
many cases not only in second broods, but in a second
generation of birds in direct descent, has led to a
greater variety upon the same shooting ground
than was perhaps ever before experienced. A much less
proportion of cheepers, however, are to be met with, most
of the birds being strong upon the wing ; but in such
cases the covies appear to be partially broken up, the
brood having got sufficiently old to leave the parent's
care. After the first two or three days' shooting many of
these remnants-Of covies had apparently recruited their
ranks with individual stragglers, for they were met in
larger numbers Cann at the commencement. This is parti-
cularly the case on the smaller and lower range of moors,
where there being different sportsmen on every other
hill, the birds finding no rest, are driven to congregate for
solace and company. On the more extensive shoot-
ings in the north the sport continues more equal for
several weeks ; and any- falling off in the returns is
more to be attributed to greater moderation on the part
of the sportsman, than to deficiency in the sport. During
the first five days nearly one thousand boxes arrived
here from the north by coach and carrier, which at the
average of eight brace in a box, would give a total of
fight thousand passing south through this road alone.
In addition to the result of the first day's sport we may
mention that of the Earl of Mansfield, at Raanoch
Moors, 90 brace—Lord Glenlyon and Captain Drum-
mond, at Faelar, 85 brace—Dalnamine, in Athol' Fo-
rest, Mr. Cameron and party, 76 brace—Calvin, near
Blair, Mr. Graham,- 65 brace. This week his Royal
Highness Prince George of Cambridge has joined Sir
William Massey- Stanley and party, at Glenshiro; in
Badenoch—Lord Castlereagh and Mr. de Vaux have
arrived at their quarters et Invercauld—the Duke of
Leeds, at Castleton of Braemar—Lord Gray, at Stra-
loch, &c.—Perth Courier.

CUMBERLAND.—On the fells and other preserves in
the counties of Cumberland and Westmoreland, grouse
are pretty plentiful, the pouts being fine strong birds,
but the old ones, especially the hens, are only small, and
not so plump as they have been known in former years.
The coveys.are tolerably numerous, numbers of which are
already packed together, and being wild and strong on
the %ting on some moors, it was with difficulty they were
come within rawre of ; but from the accounts hitherto
received from the moors, the sport waa excellent, espe-
cially on Wednesday, which was a fine bright day, and
the packs of birds were found basking on the sides of
the hillocks, On a preserve :sear Alston moor, Cumber-

~•:ould the Libel come I imagine he will walk over : it
he dtes not, why then out of the others I prefer m
Carissima and Mr. Wreford's Economist colt.
Of the six named for the 10 Sovs• Stakes, the only one
of whom I have heard a good character is Cherry Bounce.
Twelve animals are named for the Warwick Cup, the
race for which was wont to create as much interest as the
Ascot or Goodwood ones do now. As the distance
is four miles, and as only two engaged are cele-
brated for staying a distance, I shall select them for my
winners— they are Alice Hawthorn and the Best-of-
Three, and the former, I imagine, will be found the best
of the two.

The Stand Stakes.---Mr. Meiklam can hardly NI
winning with his lot. Freeman and Hampton I expect
to see well up in front.

The Queen's Plate and a St-,lling Plate will bring to a
close the meeting at Wl'wiek for 1845.

ADELPHI THEATRE.

A new one act spectacle, entitled the Boy King, was
produced here last evening. The Boy King is Louis
XV. of France (Madame Celeste), who was married at
15 years of age, and the action of the drama takes place
on the day of his wedding. In honour of the occasion
a grand fete is given at Court, at which all the youthful
nobility of his own age (represented by Miss Woolgar,
Miss E. Chaplin, and several of the ladies of the estab
lishment) attend, and there is a review of an army of
"Infantine Infantry," who go through their exercises
admirably. The tutor of the king has arranged that his
Majesty and his youthful Court shall go to bed at ten
o'clock, and that himself and his coadjutors shall enjoy
a good supper after. The Boy King, however, demurs
to this arrangement. He determines to write " man" from
that day,and as a man tosit up to supper. He finds certain
blank letters de cachet which have been left by his Ministers
for his signature, and filling them up with the names of
his tutor and those friends whom the tutor had invited
to supper, he consigns them to the Bastile, and enjoys
himself with his youthful friends. Eventually the Regent
frees the tutor and his companions, but not until the
King and his friends have sat up to and eaten the
supper, and from that night the King not only reigns,
but governs. This trifle is put on the stage in exquisite
taste. The " Infantine Infantry" are admirably drilled,
and go through their exercise with the most laughable
precision. The curtain fell amidst considerable applause,
and the piece will no doubt have a run. It was preceded
by Sweethearts and Wives, with Munyard as Billy
Lackaday, the best Billy Lackaday that has appeared
since the days of Liston. The house was crammed to
suffocation.

The object of this undertaking is to supply railway communication
to the towns and districts lying between the London and Birmingham,
and the Great Western Railways, giving them the best means of access
to the metropolis, and connecting them also with the Northern and
Eastern lines of railway, as well as with Oxford and the South.
The main line will commence from the London and Birmingham
Railway, near Harrow; and passin to the north of Uxbridge, will
proceed up the Valley by Chalfont, near Amersham and Chesham to
Missenden and Wendover, and thence to Aylesbury; from which
place it will extend to Buckingham, and passing near Winslow, and
approaching 13rackley, v ill termit, ate by a Junction with the proposed
Warwickshire and London Railway, near Banbury.
In addition to the inc above described. it is intended also to con-
struct a Railway from the central station of the London and Bir-
mingham Railway at Wolverton to Buckingham, and thence through
Bicester to Oxford; and in connexion with the line here proposed,
the Bedford, and London and Birmingham Company, intend to make
a connecting line between Bedford and Wolverton.
The proposed Zuckingham and London and Birmingham Railway
Company (for the construction of a linefrom Wolverton to Bicester)
is amalgamated with this Company.
Accurate surveys of the country have been taken by Mr. Robert
Stephenson, and it has been ascertained that no engineering difficulty
of importance presents itself.
The undertaking has already received the sanction and support of
a very large proportion of the Nobility, Gentry, and Proprietors of
land through or near whose property it is intended to pass.
It is proposed that these lines should be made with the co-operation,
and under the direction and superintendence of the London and
Birmingham Railway Company ; under a lease, in perpetuity, at
tour per cent. per annum on the outlay, with a conditional arrange-
ment as to the surplus profits.
It is intended to offer the shares in such proportion as the amount
capital will allow of, to the holders of shares in the London,
Worcester and South Staffordshire Railway Company, subject to the
approbation of the Committee of Management, ith the exception
of such a may be required for parties having localw interests.
