NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

Since the late war Cork has never had such a force of ships and
men within sight of its shores at one time than is now anchored
at Cove. There are no less than three three-deckers, two of 120
guns and one of 110 guns ; five two-deckers, one of 92 guns, one
of 90 guns, one of 84 guns, and two of 80 guns ; a frigate of 26
guns, a steam sloop of 6 guns; a steam-vessel of 2 guns, and two
steam troop.vessels. Total of ships in her Majesty's service at
Cork 13 sail, carrying 812 guns, and a force of officers, seamen,
boys, and Royal Marines, amounting to above 7,000.
During the past week the greatest activity has prevailed in the
different departments of the Admiralty. The dockyards are being
increased in number of artisans, and in quantities of stores of all
descriptions. A' daily report is ordered to be made of the state of
the advanced thirty sail-of-the-line, and all stores not perishable,
and furniture not liable to deteriorate by being afloat, are to be put
on board as soon as convenient. The steam guard ships are to be
brought forward immediately; in fact, some of them have already
been taken in hand. Notice for tenders from engineers has been
issued, and the tenders for screw machinery for these steam guard
ships will be sent into the, Admiralty from the various firms after
the Ist of next month. The Lords of the Admiralty, new that
they have put the ordinary into the most efficient state, are con-
centrating their attention on the conversion of the old line-of-
battle ships and frigates into steam guard ships, to be propelled by
the screw. Their Lordships have only to see their own orders
carried into effect in the spirit in which their measures were con-
ceived, without conceited objections and impertinent subordinate
interference, and they will retain the golden opinions of all parties.

The Acorn, 16, Commander Bingham, arrived at Buenos Ayres,
from ,Monte Video, on the 6th of June.
The Firebrand, steam-frigate, Captain Hope, left Buenos Ayres,
for Monte Video, on the 29th of May.
The Vesuvius, steam-sloop, Commander O'Callaghan, arrived at
Halifax, from Newfoundland, on the 24th of August, and left that
port the same day.

If M. Scribe permits it, the Duc tr Albe, an un-
edited opera of this author and Donizetti, will be brought out
in Lundon ; if not, a new libretto will be immediately written
for Donizetti's music, who has positively engaged to compose
a new open for her Majesty's Theatre, in two acts.

LONDON, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1845.

Ten years ago—prior to the appearance of the Oxford
Tracts and the " Avatar" of the self-destructive principle of
the Church, in the &bid of Dr. PUSEY, or Mr. W. GLADSTONE
as a Polemist—we should have regarded the announcement,
which we published yesterday under the head of " Confer-
ence of Evangelical Ministers," as offering matter of deep in-
terest, undoubtedly, to the highly respectable and extensive
community of Protestant Dissenters, but little calculated to
excite any sensation of solicitude beyond their own circle. At
the present day we look upon it, and we look beyond it, with
very different feelings. If the Manchester Guardian be rightly
informed, the approaching assemblage in London of "Evan-
gelical Christians of different churZhes and countries . .

for the purpose of associating and concentrating the strength
of an enlightened Protestantism against the encroachments
of Popery and Puseyism, and to promote the interests of a
Scriptural Qluigtianity," is calculated to produce more oz.

Mr. Oannxwoon (to police sergeant lS E, who had charge of
the case—Have You no further evidence. The sergeant—No, Sir.
Mr. Onnanwoon—Then why did you arrest the men ?
(The prisoners were apprehended on the previous e►ening, and
locked up until brought before the magistrate this morning.)
The Sergeant—One of them said he had been in Thanet-mews
on the night of the robbery; that he went for his *oat.
Mr. ORIMIWOOD—Why, you might as well arrest any one
passing along the public street. I must say it is not fair to arrest
men at haphazard, and then put these questions with the view of
extracting answers to criminate themselves. Let the men be
discharged.

HER MAJESTY'S STEAM YACHTS AT TREPORT.

When the Victoria and Albert royal yacht, and her little tender the
Fairy, were at Treport, the French Royal Family were much pleased
with their appearance, but especially with that of the Fairy, built of
iron, and propelled by the screw. The Prince de Joinville visited the
Fairy frequent'y, and on one occasion with Prince Albert, when his
Royal Highness introduced. Mr. Penn, the constructor of the engines
of the Fairy, who, by royal command, was on board that vessel
during her Majesty's visit to the continent. Mr. Penn accompanied
that gallant young Admiral the French Prince all over the little
yacht, and into the engine-room, when some portions of the ma-
chinery were taken to pieces at his desire. Prince de Joinville dis-
played an intimate acquaintance with the most minute details of the
screw machinery, and expressed his firm belief that a very short
time would elapse before every man-of-war should be fitted with the
screw propeller.
NEW SCOTTISH SHIRE.—When in the county of
Durham a few weeks ago, we met a farmer, who showed us a sheep
dog which he said came from Scotland. On being asked what part
of Scotland it belonged to, he said it cane from Gaelicshire !—Scots-
mon.

According to the last census (in 1845), the kingdom
of Saxony contains 1,757,000 inhabitants, consisting of 1,726,416 Lu-
therans, 30,375 Catholics, 127 Greeks, and 882 Jews.

PROSPECTUS.

The imperative necessity, alike in a social, commercial, or political
point of view, for drawing as closely together as possible the capitals
of England and Ireland, has suggested the formation of the Grand
London and Dublin Approximation Railway,—a line, the value of
which it is difficult to over estimate, since it will be found to take a
nearly direct course from the English metropolis to Holyhead. It
will pass through or near the populous and noble county town of
Shropshire (as yet unprovided with railway communiCation), and
will traverse along its whole extent districts second in wealth, re-
sources, trade, and commerce, to none in the empire ; bringing them
more nearly and immediately in contact with London and Dublin,
than has hitherto been thought possible. This project is wholly in-
dependent of any other line already before the public, and as it
possesses national advantages which none can surpass, must, when
carried out, become, without exception, the most important railway
in Great Britain.

One of the first objects of this Company will be to obtain a most
central and accessible terminusin London, and Farringdon-street has
bean fixed upon for that purpose.

NEW IRISH RAILWAY PAPER.

THE progressive extension of Railways through-
out Ireland having, to an unprecedented extent, augmented
tt.e circle of individuals directly interested in obtaining early, accu-
rate, and complete information on Railway affairs, it has been
thought expedient to publish a new Weekly Journal, entitled
THE IRISH RAILWAY TELEGRAPH.

Conscious that the support of the public can only be acquired and
maintained by industry and impartiality, the projectors of the
" IRISH RAILWAY TELR.4RAPII" will spare no expense to make
their journal a full and faithful record of Railway affairs, end pledge
themselves that it will be found honestly pronouncing its opinions,
unswayed by individual interests, and untrammelled by the control
of existing companies. Banking, Mining, and Agricultural affairs,
being intimately connected with Railway interests, will find a promi-
nent place in the columns of the " IRISH RAILWAY TELE-
GRAPH."

Subscription, IT. per annum, payable in advance.
The First Number was published on SATURDAY, October 4, at
the Office, No. 2, Church-lane, Collegc-grecn, Dublin, where all com-
munications, orders, &c., &c., may be addressed.

MT Iii.ESEX SESSIONS.

These sessions were held on Tuesday before the Learned
Assistant Judge and the usual bench of magistrates.
The calendar contains a list of sixty prisoners for trial,
fifty-six of whom are charged with felony, the remainder
with assaults, misdemeanours, &c.
DARING ROBBERY IN THE REGENT'S PARK.— Charles
Mason was indicted for stealing a Victorine (tippet) from
the person of Lucy Curtis.
The prosecutrix, a lady residhig in the neighbourhood of
the Regent's-park, stated, that on the afternoon of the 23d
ult. she was walking on one of the bridges over ths Regent's-
canal, near St. John's-wood, accompanied by two of her
daughters, when the prisoner suddenly rushed upon her from
behind, and, after seizing her suddenly, snatched the Vic-
torine off her neck and immediately ran away. She was
greatly alarmed at this sudden attack, and called for assist-
ance, but no one came, and she saw no more of the prisoner
until he was taken into custody on another charge, when she
at once identified him as the person by whom she had been
attacked.
The daughters of the prosccutrix confirmed her testimony,
and also identified the prisoner.

The prisoner was found guilt}•.
He was next indicted for stealing some carpenter's tools,
to which he pleaded guilty.
The COURT sentenced him to six months' imprisonment
in the House of Cbrrection for each offenee ; there to be kept
to hard labour.

POLIC L INTELLIGENCE.
GUILDHALI.

John Williams, a young man who stated himself to be a
law clerk, was brought before Mr. Alderman Humphery,
charged with being in the building, 1, Fig Tree•court, Tem-
ple, with intent to commit felony.
Mr. Hans Busk, a barrister, residing in chambers at the
above-mentioned building, stated that about noon yesterday,
while he was sitting at his table he heard a key working in
the lock of the door, he walked towards the door, and heard
two other keys tried. Witness then suddenly opened the
door, and found the prisoner. Witness said to him, "This
accounts for all the doors being picked here." The prisoner
clasped his hands together, and exclaimed, "Have mercy on
me." Witness took him down stairs to give him into cus-
tody, and at the door the prisoner stat ted off. Witness pur-
sued him through two or three courts, and gave him into
custody on a staircase in New-court.
The officer produced four keys he found in the prisoner's
possession.
Mr. Alderman HUMiIIERY called upon the prisoner to state
who he was, and where he lived. The prisoner said he lived
with his mother at 8, Lombard-street, in the Mot. The
keys found on him belonged to his master's door. He was a
law clerk.
Mr. Alderman HUMPIIERY asked with whom he lived?
The pi isoner declined saying, as it would disgrace his master.
Mr. Alderman HUMPIIERY asked him why he entered
these chambers? The prisoner said he was inquiring for his
cousin, to whom he had lent 10s., and who had promised to
repay him that day.
lhe prisoner again refused to state by whom he was em-
ployed, and the Alderman remanded him till Friday, that the
officer might make inquiries about him.

PROSPECTUS,

The imperative necessity, alike in a social, commercial, or political
point of view, for drawing as closely together as possible the capitals
of England and Ireland, has suggested the formation of the Grand
London and Dublin Approximation Railway,—a line, the value of
which it is difficult to over estimate, since it will b. found to take a
nearly direct conrse from the English metropolis to Holyhead. It
will pass through or near the populous and noble county town of
Shropshire (as yet unprovided with railway communication), and
will traverse along its whale extent districts second in wealth, re-
sources, trade, and commerce, to none in the empire ; bringing them
more nearly and immediately in contact with London and Dublin,
than has hitherto been Bought possible. This project is wholly in-
dependent of any other line already before the public, and as it
possesses national advantages which none can surpass, must, when
carried out, become, without exception, the most important railway
in Great Britain.

One of the first objects of this Company will be to obtain a most
central an 1 accessible terminus in London, and Farringdon-street has
been razed upon for that purpose.
It Is proposed to mate a tunnel from that point to the Great Western

GRAND JUNCTION, GREAT WESTERN,
and SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY JUNCTION.—At a
Public Meeting of the Inhabitants of Bicester, held Oct. 3, 1845,
the following Resolutions were passed :
"That a line of Railway through Accepter, connecting that town
with the Great Western line at Slough, and the Oxfbrd and Rugby
line at Hayford, is, in the opinion of this meeting, highly desirable,
and would tend greatly to benefit the town and its vicinity."
" That the line of railway to be called the Grand Junction, Great
Western, and South-Western Railway Junction, appears to this
meeting Ma toot empprel!enslyp scheme, and as affording to the
town of Bleester and its neighbourhood every facility requirod. This
ineeti-g cordially co-operates with the Provisional Committee of the
above Railway. 4

London, England, 1845-10-09

It will form a direct route from Hull to Sheffield through
Goole, Thorne, and Doncaster.
It will form a direct line from Hull to Barnsley, and the inex-
haustible coal-fields of Silkstone, Worsbro' Cawthorne, Bretton,
Billingley, Barugh, and also to the limestone fields in the neigh-
bourhood of Doncaster, which will be of great benefit to the agri-
cultural districts of Lincolnshire and the East and North Ridings
of Yorkshire,

It will, by the saving of distance and of stoppage, accelerate the
mails between Hull and Sheffield, and Hull and Manchester, at
least two hours.

The whole of the country has been carefully surveyed, and the
report of the engineer is exceedingly satisfactory.
No engineering difficulties exist, nor will any ornamental or re-
sidential property be interfered with, and the lino is comparatively
a straight one.

The cost of construction is very •much below the average, owing
to its being a surface line nearly the whole distance, and the im-
mense traffic that will pass over it must render it highly remune-
rative to the shareholders.

An influential provisional committee is now forming, and the
names of the gentlemen comprising it will be shortly announced.
In the meantime, further information may be obtained from the
solicitors ; and application for shares, in the form given below, ac-
companied with satisfactory references, may also be addressed to the
