mence at the Worcester Station of the Great Eastern and Western
Railway, and, proceeding by Ilcdditch and Henley-in-Arden,
t tich Warwick and Leam'ngton, and end at Rugby, the terminus of
the Midland Counties Railway and of the proposed Rugby and Hunt-
ingdon Junction Railway. It will communicate with Droitwich,

At Warwick, it will unite with the Bizzlainglutin and Oxbrd June.

tion Railway, the Warwick and Cheltenham Railway, and the Lon-
don, Warwick, Leamington, and Kidderminster Railway ; and at
Rugby, with the London and Birmingham, the Midland Counties,
and the projected Rugby and Huntingdon Junction Railways.
The country through which it will pass, is thickly populated and
of the richest description. It presents no engineering difficulties, and
from its population, its manufactures, and agricultural produce, it
posseSses sources • of such abundant traffic arto render it highly're-
munerative to the car ;:alists. •
The object propos: _3 to complete the line of railway cominunica-
tion between the Western, Midland, and Eastern portions of the
Kingdom, aucl a glance at the Map of England will show that this
will be effected in the most direct manner by the present line ; touch-
ing, as it will, at one of its termini, a railway running direct from
Swansea to Worcester, and at the other, the projected line from
Rugby to Huntingdon—from which point a railway communication
has been already provided.

The Reformation is one of the most remarkable events in our his-
tory, whether considered in relation to politics or religion ; for its
influence was most powerful upon botk. The reading, profession,
and taste of the author have led him to regard it in the latter rather
than in the former light ; and, therefore, brief as the sketch is, it will
not be found of the nature or an abridgment of larger histories, but a
continuous though succinct account of its rise, progress, and consum-
mation, chiefly considered as a great revolution of the Church of
England.

RATING OF PRINCE ALBERT'S

_
FARM AT WINDSOR.
At a vestry meeting of the parishioners of Windsor, which was
more than usually numerously attended, held on Thursday last, the
subject of the rates due to the parish from Prince Albert, for the
Flemish Farm, extending over 300 acres, in the occupation of his
Royal Highness, within the parish, was brought before the vestry.
It appeared from the poor's-rate book, which was laid before the
vestry by the assistant overseer, that Flemish Farm, in the occupa-
tion of the Prince, was of the estimated rental of 450/., and that the
last rate, made on the 25th of May (as well as several preceding
rates), at the rate of Bd. in the pound, amounting to 15/., had not
been paid. It further appeared that three eightpenny rates for the
relief of the poor were the average number made every year ; thus
rendering his Royal Highness liable to the payment of 45/. annually
for the 300 acres of land, with a house, at Flemish Farm. Upon an
inquiry being made by a parishioner of the assistant overseer, to as-
certain the reason why the Prince had refused to pay the rates since he
had farmed the land, it was stated that the payment of the rates had
been resisted upon two grounds, viz.—that the Prince had no "bene-
ficial occupation ;" and, secondly, that the property belonged to the
Queen. Upon this statement having been made to the meeting, Mr.
Judge rose and observed, that most certainly the Prince very clearly
beneficially occupied the property ; for the two oxen, which were
sent to the agricultural show at Dublin, and which were sold for be-
tween 701. and 80/. each, the prize ox exhibited at the last Smithfield
cattle show, as well as various other cattle, were all fatted at
Flemish Farm, to say nothing about the crops and other agricultural
produce, from which his Royal Highness derived great profits. Mr.
Judge, after observing upon the injustice of the Prince being allowed
to escape scot free, while small farmers, occupying land in the parish,
were compelled to contribute towards the support of the poor, moved
the following resolution:--" That this meeting is of opinion that his
Royal Highness Prince Albert, having a beneficial occupation in Flemish
Farm, his Royal Highness is justly liable to pay all rates and taxes
due for the said property."--The resolution, which was seconded by
Mr. Harrison (of Gloucester-place), was carried without a dissen-
tient voice. The following motion was then moved and seconded,
and unanimously adopted :—" That Mr. Towers, the collector, is
hereby instructed by the vestry, in conformity with the last reso-
lution, to make app'ication to his Royal Highness Prince Albert for
all arrears of poors-rates due to the parish of New Windsor for the
property his Royal Highness occupies, known as Flemish Farm."
The arrears of pours-rates due to the parish from the Prince
amount to upwards of 2001. It is now expected after the unanimity
which prevailed at the vestry meeting on the subject, that his Royal
Highness will cause all future rates, as well as the arrears, to be
paid to the collector upon application being made to the Prince's
steward, Major-General Wemyss. Among the respectable inhabi-
tants who were present at the meeting, were Mr. Thomas Adams,
the Vicar's Warden, and the whole of the overseers of the parish.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.
OPENING OF THE TUNBRIDGE WELLS LINE.
Yesterday the Tunbridge Wells line, a new tributary to the traffic
of the South-Eastern Railway, was opened by the Directors of that
Company, who started by special train from the Bricklayers' Arms
station at eleven o'clock, accompanied by several of the Share-
holders. Amongst the Company were Mr. 31`Gregor, of Liverpool,
Chairman of the Directors ; Lord Viscount Torrington, General
Pasley, the Inspector-General ; Mr. Peter Barlow, the resident en-
gineer; Captain O'Brien, Mr. Adcock, and others. At Tunbridge
another special train was in readiness for the experimental trip over
the newly-formed line, which is a curiosity in railway construction,
from the fact of its being commenced twelve months before the Act was
obtained, and of its being complete within a few weeks from re-
ceiving the royal imprimature in last session. Its completion
places Kent and the metropolis in possession of a direct and
delightful summer rendezvous. The line is live miles long,
and intersects the headings of the ancient iron-works of the
country. At present it is only open to the temporary station
at Jackwood's spring, about a quarter of a mile from Tunbridge
Wells. The permanent station will be in the centre of the town, and
is approached by a tunnel 800 yards long, under a portion of it. The
works to the temporary station have been heavy, there having been
half a million yards of earthwork or cuttings, chiefly in rock. There
is also a tunnel of a quarter of a mile near Lomer-hill Park. The
line was commenced in July, 1844, as a single line; and in April,
1845, it was determined to make it double. The cost to Jackwood's
Spring, including land, has been 100,000/. ; and the extension into
Tunbridge Wells will be 80,0301. more. The line passes near Lomer-
hill Park, the residence or mansion of James Alexander Esq., and
near Colebrook Park, the residence of Benjamin Smith, Esq. An
elegant viaduct, 254 yards in length, with 30 arches, carries the
line over Powder Mill Valley. Mr. Hoof has been the contractor for
the works, and they have been carried out under the engineering of
Mr. Barlow, son of the professor. The whole line was flocked with
spectators welcoming the first locomotive to Tunbridge, and as the
whistle echoed back the welcome, the military band at the station
struck up " See the conquering Hero comes."
Several free train trips took place during the day between Tun-
bridge and Maidstone, giving an opportunity to the inhabitants of
experiencing gratuitously the first fruits and effects of those facilities
which the newly opened line is calculated to confer upon Tunbridge.
During the day the labourers were substantially regaled, and the
Directors and their friends sat down to a sumptuous entertainment at
the Sussex Hotel.

ARTESIAN WELLS IN TRAFALGAR- RIBA RE.—On Fri-
day workmen commenced laying down a main from the reservoirs
in Orange-street, to supply the adjacent St. George's barracks, from
whence another main will be carried across St. James's Park to
Buckingham Palace. This will complete the whole intended supply
of buildings and offices connected with the Government, by which a
very considerable saving will be effected. The supply of water con-
tinues undiminished, 500 gallons being raised per minute, which, by a
few additional strokes of the engine, is raised to 800 gallons. Whilst
this large supply is obtained, none of the wells or springs of the neigh-
bourhood have become exhausted or dry, as was anticipated.
EAST SURREY REGISTRATION.—Mr. Fish sat on
Friday at the Vestry-hall, Camberwell, to revise the lists of Christ-
church, Newington, Pfd some other polishes. Mr. E. Meyrnott at-
tended as the Consei %,ative agent, and Mr. R. Russell, Mr. Jeans,
and Mr. Davis appeared on behalf of the Liberals. The vote of the
Earl of Eldon was objected to, on the ground that he was a Peer.
The objection was allowed by the Revising Banister, and notice was
given of an appeal to the Court of Common Pleas, in order to have
. .

the ease fully tiled. - _
The approaching, public dinner to George Hudson,
Esq., M.P., at Sunderland, will, it is intended, take place
in a temporary building that will be erected for that purpose,
the estimated cost of. which has been already more than pro-
vided by subscription. It will be the most distinguished
banquet that has ever taken place • in this part of the king-

we have too long been to details of horror, to deeds of blood
and violence in all the accounts we receive from Buenos
Ayres, the increase of murders and assassinat ions, some of them
committed in open day, on the persons of foreign residents,
and too probably of foreign prisoners, also in that city, has
now become absolutely hideous. The. :worst and darkest
epochs of the " reign of terror," the most frightful excesses
of the Freneh—Raolution, .do not exceed in their blood-
guiltiness and atrocity, those which, on a smaller scale, are
being exhibited under the detestable auspices of Ros As. We
published -a day or two ago one of these fearful narratives of
murder, rape, and pillage, committed on a Scotch family of nine
persons, in broad day, in the immediate vicinity of Buenos
Ayres,, suppressing, however, some of the details as too revolt-
ing forour pages. On Saturday we gave insertion to a singularly
interesting document—touching and pathetic by its very
simplicity, and the absence of all effort, to be the one or
the other—which has, we fear, but too close a bearing on the
story of the atrocious career of Ros As. We allude to the
account by General O'BittEx, formerly a distinguished
servant and minister of the Bolivian Republic, of his capti-
vity and sufferings under the direction of RosAs, by whom he
was perfidiously kidnapped, although at that time in execu-
tion of an important mission on behalf of an independent
state. Of the pusillanimous and inconsistent conduct of our own
Minister, the Hon. Mr. MANDEVILLE, we have long since re-
corded an opinion which this paper too fatally confirms. The
ample details, however, given in the document itself render
farther comment unnecessary. "The casus &Ili," as the Times
observes, "has been already prepared by the absolute inter-
ruption of our trade with the Argentine Republic, in direct
violation of our treaties with that state."

Madrid journals of the 11th inst. have been received. Ac,
cording to the latest accounts the QUEEN was at Vittoria.
Letters from Barcelona state that the Madrid diligence was
attacked by banditti about four leagues from that place some
days previous, and that several of them had been arrested and
tried by court-martial. Four men were sentenced to death,
and one woman to the galleys for life. On the day after the

trial three of the men were shot in their native village. The
fourth was respited in consequence of information which he
gave to the authorities, and which led to the arrest of forty
persons. The French tquadron under Admiral PARSEVAL
DESCIIENES, consisting of seven ships of the line, passed Bar-
celona on the 11th, sailing towards the Balearic Islands.
No business was done on the Madrid Bourse.

We find little in the Paris papers that can interest the
English reader. The Government paper, the Journal des
Debats, has an article on the high charge for postage of
letters in France, and expresses a conviction that the question
will be brought forward by the Government next session,
and a great reduction made in the rates of postage. "If Den-
mark and Spain," it says, " have been able to overcome the
spirit of routine, and to introduce a measure which simplifies,
accelerates, and multiplies communication by letter, and
renders it accessible, by the lowness of the charge, to all
classes, it is no longer possible to defer in France such an

amelioration." The same paper publishes a letter, dated
Berlin, September 10., which professes to give a " true and
faithful" account of the impression made on Queen
VICTORIA by her visit to Germany, and at the same
time asserts that it was a " coup manqué." The
Germans thought the English came for the purpose of
introducing their cottons, and her MAJEsiir is said to have
been disappointed at not finding more crowned heads availing
themselves of her presence to meet together and welcome
her, and to have been mortified at her husband, Prince
ALBERT, having been prevented in some cases from occupy-
ing his place at her side, his title of Royal Highness not
being generally admitted in Germany. Her MAJESTY is
also said to have been vexed at the illiberal spirit displayed
in the case of her donation towards the fund for the comple-
tion of the Cathedral of Cologne. No Paris journal is so
often imposed upon by its correspondents as this official
organ. and this letter is only one proof among many others
that could be mentioned.

The KING, on Tuesday, received at the Chateau
d'Eu the Prefect of the Seine Inferieure, the Sub-Prefect
of Dieppe, and Captain LAURENCIN, of the Navy, and
transacted business with the Minister of Finances. On the
same day the Count DE PARIS, accompanied by Gen. Baron
MARBOT and M. REGNIER, visited Treport. Sir O. NAPIER has
been residing for some days at Cherbourg, to the wonder and
amusement of the good people of that royal seaport. The
Phare of Cherbourg says :—" If there are persons who at-
tach importance to elegance of dress, it is certainly not
Admiral NAPIER, who appears to be an original. It would
be difficult to find a superior officer snore ill-dressed."
We subjoin other miscellaneous extracts from the conti-
nental papers :

" The given in a letter from Venice of a terrible accident
on a bridge between Bassano and Feltre is to a certain extent con-
firmed by a Vienna letter of the 9th. It appears that when the bridge
gave way a major, a captain, two lieutenants, and 53 privates fell
into the river. One of the lieutenants and 23 of the men were
drowned, and the major was so much injured that his life is
despaired of.

" Gaptain Guerin, the diver, who is now attempting to save the
rich cargo of the George Sand, which was wrecked off Neville, near
Cherbourg, brought up from that vessel a few days since a case, con-
taining 2,000 piastres (10.6000
" Tile Sad of Marseilles states that the Duke de Montpensier will,
on his way home front the Levant, pay a visit to the royal family at
Naples, and arrive before the end of the month at Toulon, from
whence he will come direct to Paris.

"It is a general notion among all who live by the seaside, that
whatever may be cast on the shore becomes the rightful property of
the first finders, but this in France is contrary to an express article in
the penal code. On the 10th of March last the Trinidad, an English
vessel, was wrecked near Etaples, on the coast of the Pas de Calais,
and her cargo, consisting of dye-woods, indigo, wool, gum, &c., was
thrown en the beach. Part was colleetcd by the authorities, and
part clandestinely carried off by the inhabitants of the place. Messrs.
Daire and Gournay, merchants at Amiens, were brought before the
Correctional Tribunal of Montrcuil-sur-Mer, as having made them-
selves accomplices in this illicit appropriation of another's goods by
purchasing them, and were sentenced to two months' imprisonment,
and a fine of 500 fr. ; and their clerk, named Deblangy, to imprison-
ment for four days. An appeal was carried before the Superior Tri-
bunal at St. Omer, but the judgment has just been confirmed.
The Bishop of London confirmed forty-two young persons, in the
British Church, at Havre, on Tuesday ; his Lordship afterwards pro-
ceeded to• Caen, to hold a confirmation there.

"There has just been built at the Mint of Paris, for the ste aro-
engine of that establishment, a chimney, 270 French feet (287 ft. 7 in.
English) in height. It Is entirely rcund, except at the base, which
is square.

"A medical congress is to be opened on Nov. 1, at Paris, to cen-
tralise the efforts of the physicians, surgeons, and apothecaries of
France, to render the proposed medical Bill as perfect as possible. A
permanent Committee for the organisation of this congress has been
appointed by the delegates of the medical societies of Paris, and it

MARTLEBONE VESTRY.—On Sattlrdav at the
meetingof this vestry (Mr. Tabrum in the chair), Mr. Daniell,
the churchwarden, brought up the report of the deputation
as to the proceedings which-took place at the conference be-
tween the deputation and the Poor-law Commissioners on
Thursday lest. He cong:atulrted the vestry on the impres-
sion that had been made upon the Commissioners by the
arguments of the deputation, and thotiOt there was very
little doubt their wishes would be acceded tc. He concirded
by moving a vote of thanks to the Rev. Dr. Spry, the rector,
for having taken the trouble to come up from Canterbury to
join the deputation at much perzonal inconvenience. The
motion having been seconded, was carried unanimously. Mr.
Ridgway then gave notice that he should move, on the fol-
lowing Saturday, for a return of the expense of the police
force employed in the Christ Church district of the prish,
and described the police as most inefficient and neglectful of
their duties; they were employed to protect the public and
prevent crime, as well as to apprehend criminals. It was
their duty to see that the law was not infringed in the public
throughfares, and to prevent any nuisance ;tom being com-
mitted to the annoyance of the public, instead of which, they
were lounging about the streets, or courting servant maids,
supposing that they were never to interfere unless called upon
by persons who had suffered any injury.
THE LASII AT WOOLWICIL—On Friday morning',
at a quarter to seven o'clock, the troops were assembled oison n the
parade to hear the proceedings of a themartial read out against James Callow, a trumpeterrceivc one
Royal Horse Artillery, who had been sentenced t 0
hundred and fifty lashes, for stealing the sum of six shillings
and fourpcnce from Bombardier George Hunter, of the same bat-
talion, the same being approved of by her Majesty, and ordered
to be carried into e.x- ecution. The troops were then marched
off to the riding-school of the Royal Horse Artillery, where the
unfortunate
culprit was ordered to strip, and the punishment was
carried into effect. The unfortunate man received the number
awarded without imploring mercy or a remission of the sentence,
though his sufferings were dreadiul. The man was conveyed to the
Ordnance medical 'hospital, to undergo the process Of "curing,"
when he will be drummed out of the regiment with the "Rogues'
March." Gunner Laycock, of the same regiment, who received 150
lashes a few days since, is also to be drummed
