The Provisional Directors of the two Companies, formed for making
a direct railroad from London to Manchester, announce—
That, deeming it injurious to the interests of their constituents to
expend their money in double applications to Parliament for the same
purpose, they have agreed that the Direct London and Manchester
Railway Company shall alone apply to Parliament for a Bill for
making the railway.
That the two Companies shall be united into one, when the Bill for
making the railway shall have received the royal assent.
That the proceedings of the two Companies shall be governed by
an equal number of Directors.
That the present Chairman of the Direct London and Manchester
Company (John Dillon, Esq.), shall be the Chairman ; and that An-
drew Caldecott, Esq., and the Hon. Colonel Leicester Stanhope, shall
be the Deputy-Chairmen of such twenty-four Directors.
That Sir Jan Rennie, J. U. Rastrick, Esq., and George Reming-
ton, Esq., shall, be the engineers of the said two Companies.
That Messrs. Ashuist and Son, Messrs. Sudlow, Sons, and Torr,

panies.
The Directors also think it right further to state that the engineers
have given the most positive assurances that the surveys will be
ready for Parliament.

On Saturday Edwin Power, a-yoath 19 years of age, was
charged beflze Mr. Burrell with being disorderly and threat-
ening the life of his mother, Mrs. Rose Rosina Power, the
proprietor-of the New Grenadier, Crescent-mews, Belgrave-
square.
Mrs. Power said that defendant, who was a youth of
most ungovernable disposition, resided with ber, and
if at all thwarted in his wishes. resorted to extreme vio-
lence. On Friday afternoon be was particularly so, because
she objected to give him live shillings to buy two rabbits,
and took up a carving knife and said he would do for her
and his sisters. With a view to have some peace in the
house she informed defendant that she would give him some
money if he would go away and get himself some situation,
and upon his agreeing to do so she gave him two sovereigns,
and he left the place. After passing a very restless night in
consequence of her son's misbehaviour, she was informed at
ten o'clock on that morning that he was in the house, and
had showed a pistol to the pot-boy, and that the police had
been sent for. In consequence of what she was told she gave
the defendant into custody.

Escot, a policeman of the B division, produced a pistol,
powder, and flask, which he had found in prisoner's pos-
session. ,

Defendant made no reply to the charge.
Mr. BURRF.I.I. considered this an extreme instance of bru-
tality on the part of defendant, and called upon him to find
good bail.—He was locked up.

STATE OF TRADE.

FOREIGN WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, Nov. 14.—There
has been only a limited amount of business done in Fo-
reign 'Wools this week, and no apparent variation in
prices.
ENGLISH WOOL MARKET, LEEDS,. Nov. 14.—The
sales of combing and clothing wool this week have been
limited, and rather lower prices have been snbmitted to
than could be obtained a month age.
WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, Nov. 14.—There is no
relief to the dull state of the trade both for short and
long wools noted in our last week's report, but on the
other hand an increased degree of flatness, and in order
to effect sales lower terms must be submitted to.
LEEns.—There has been rather more business done at
the cloth halls this week than for the last two or three
weeks. More goods have also been delivered to order
to the shipping-houses, than for some time past. Not-
withstanding the dull markets of the last few weeks,
there has been no matprial accumulation of stocks, and
prices are firm. The shipping houses are a little more
busy than of late, and on the whole a fair amount of
business, considering the late period of the season, is
doing in the warehouses.
BRADFORD MARKET, THURSDAY.—WO cannot add
anything different to the monotonous description of the
wool market for many weeks past ; the most rigid care
is manifested by the spinners to buy only for present
wants. Notwithstanding the great diminution in the
consumption, there is no giving way in the country as
yet to enable the staplers to meet the prices offered here.
Since last Thursday, a great number of highly respect.
able spinners and manufacturers have commenced run-
ning short time ; besides, a large additional quantity of
machinery is wholly stopped. The amount of produc-
tion must now, from the prevalence of short time, and the
total stoppage of machinery in various directions, be
fully 30 per cent. less than in ordinary times ; and al-
though this state of things presses heavily upon the ,
working classes, yet there is no other means likely to
bring business to such a point that it can be carried on
profitably either to masters or men. In pieces there has
been quite as much business done as for several weeks
past, and by the precautionary measures adopted in re-
ducing the quantity brought to market, increased stock
cannot now take place, and the chances of an early
amendment are rendered more probable.
MANCHESTER, THURSDAY EVENING.—We have to
report a very heavy and still declining cloth market.
The demand is really small in comparison with the
healthy demand some two months ago ; nor is there the
least appearance of the slightest improvement. Even a
reduction on the lowest point quoted to-day would not

tgmpt any low--

.„. purchaser to buy. The winter pros-
tor the power-loom weavers are gloomy enough,
without any addition in the shape of dear food. Many
manufacturers are only working their machinery in the
day. Spinners, too, find it difficult to effect sales at last
week's currency ; indeed, the prices are the turn lower.

CROYDON.

On Saturday Win. Ful'er, one of the letter-carriers attached.
to the Croydon district, attended before Messrs. Reid,
and Sutherland, the presiding Magistrates, at s.l..ie Town-
hall, in discharge of his recognisances, to ar—

of
having unlawfully embezzled and a letter containing
a sovereign, the property of her..fgaj,t3„.*'s Postmaster-Ge-

money, upon a certain day, to addresses within the four
different deliveries comprising the Croydon district. One of
these letters, containing a sovereign, was addressed to a
gentlemen at Addiscombe-house, and this letter formed the
subject of the present charge. The four letters arrived in
due course at the Croydon post-office, and the defendant and

STATE OF TRADE.

FOREIGN WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, Nov. 14.—There
has been only a limited amount of business done in Fo-
reign Wools this week, and no apparent variation in
prices.
ENGLISH WOOL MARKET, LEEDS, Nov. 14.—The
sales of combing and clothing wool this week have been
limited, and rather lower prices have been submitted to
than could be obtained a month ag,t).
WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, Nov. 14.—There is no
relief to the dull state of the trade both for short and
long wools noted in our last week's report, but on the
other hand an increased degree of flatness, and in order
to effect sales lower terms must be submitted to.
LEEDS.—There has been rather more business done at
the cloth halls this week than for the last two or three
weeks. More goods have also been delivered to order
to the shipping-houses, than for some time past. Not-
withstanding the dull markets of the last few weeks,
there has been no material accumulation of stocks, and
prices are firm. The shipping houses are a little more
busy than of late, and on the whole a fair amount of
business, considering the late period of the season, is
doing in the warehouses.
BRADFORD MARKET, THURADA.Y.--WO cannot add
anything different to the monotonous description of the
wool market for many weeks past 1 the most rigid care
is manifested by the spinners to buy only for present
wants. Notwithstanding the great (limb:titian in the
consumption, there is no giving Way lit the country as
yet to enable the stAplcm to meet the prices offered here.
Since last Th'fsaay, a great number of highly respect-

though this state of things presses heavily upon the
working classes, yet there is no other means likely to
bring business to such a point that it can be carried on
profitably either to masters or men. In pieces there has
been quite as much business done as for several weeks
past, and by the precautionary measures adopted in re-
ducing the quantity brought to market, increased stock
cannot now take place, and the chances of an early
amendment are rendered more probable.

EAST AND WEST CUMBERLAND
JUNCTION RAILWAY.
In pursuance of the power reserved to them in their prospectus,
for the formation of a railway from Penrith to Cockermouth, the East
and West Cumberland Junction Railway Company have made the
following arrangements with the Westmoreland and Cumberland
Union Lakes District Railway Company, viz., that a portion only of
the proposed line, extending from Penrith to near to the town of
Keswick, shall be made by this Company, and that.: the Westmorland
and Cumberland Union Lakes District Railway Company shall com-
plete the remainder of the line.
N.B. The latter Company have also abandoned that part of their
scheme which extended from Keswick to Ambleside, and have as-
sumed the name of the Cockermouth and Keswick Railway Company.
Botjs Companies will be prepared to go to Parliament in the ensuing
session.

body. His own breast is the sole depository of his secrets,
and his Cabinet possesses not a key with which to unlock
it. Cautious to an extreme, he suspects where no ground
for suspicion exists ; and possessing only fifth-rate
talents, h- refuses to avail himself of the counsels of
better -nd more able men than himself. It will be
well if his obstinacy about Oregon does not result in mis-
chief. Yet, with nothing but disaster before his cps,
he is not a man to forsake a course which he has once
determined to adopt. He will proceed in a wrong course
because he will. Having been unexpectedly made Pre-
sident, he seems determined to have his own way in
every thing, and as lie is not considered to be very far-
sighted, his own friends tremble for the results.
Mark that striking looking man near him, with an
abundance of snow-white hair floating over his fine fore-
head, and half hiding his coat collar, and whose dark,
piercing, lustrous eyes are bright with the fire of in-
tellect. His face is highly coloured in consequence of
some cuticular disease, and his frame is very spare, but
he walks the marble floor with the dignity and grace of
a monarch. What a contrast does his tall, commanding
form present to the little pinched up figure of Mr. Polk.
That is George M. Dallas, one of the soundest scholars
and ablest lawyers of the United States, of which he
has just been chosen Vice-President. Mr. Dallas has
long been one of the leading members of the party to
which he belongs, and enjoys the esteem and respect of
even his political opponents. He has long been engaged
in public life, and although holding so high an office in
his native land, he still practises as counsellor-at-law in
the United States Courts. lie is a beautiful speaker,
and very effective in his addresses—in short, he is in all
respects, with the exception of his political opinions, the
very opposite of Mr. Polk.
"Here is the inaug-ration speech of President Poke,
which he spoke at the capitol," shouts a newsboy, within
five minutes after the speech has been delivered. The
crowd begins to break up, and as it is raining as if a
second deluge were about to drown the collected
iniquity at Washington, let us be off to Coleman's, and
there brush up our recollections of a greater than Polk—
Daniel Webster. - WHIZ.

Ilnussims, Nov. 24.—. The Chamber of Representatives
has concluded the long debate on the address to the King, in
answer to his Majesty's speech on opening the session. The
cause of the great length of this discussion was a speech of
M. Van de Weyer, the Minister of the Interior, who at the

and moved the substitution of an amendment in the name of
the Government. In the debate on the several articles.
when the Chamber came to the last of them, the amendment
was read.
The President declared that this amendment was to be
voted by appel nominal.
Eighty-eight Members replied to the call of their names,
and the amendment being put to the vote, was carried by a
majority of 59 to 25; 4 Members declined to vote.
The vote on the whole Address followed. Eighty-nine
Members were present ; it was carried by 65 to 23 ; only one
declined voting.
The Company constructing the railway from Louvain to
the Sambre has chosen Mr. Watson, an English engineer, to
make the plans, and conduct the operations. Mr. Watson is
the same who directed the construction of the tunnel
on the branch from Tunbridge to Tunbridge Wells.
Mr. Watson arrived at Louvain on the 22d, and will there
fix his offices. The working-class is impatient for the be-
ginning of the works, which will give them employment
during the winter.
A letter from Vienna, of the 17th, says—" The Hereditary
Prince of Lucca and his young bride arrived the day- before
yesterday from Frohsdoi-f, at the palace of the Duke of
Lucca, at Vienna. They dined on the same day with the
Emperor. They will stay here a week, and will then go tc
Lucca. The Duchess Xngouleme has resolved to leave
Frohsdorf, to pass the winter at Vienna, where she will
occupy a part of the hotel of the Countess Esterhazy, her
dearest friend and foster sister, who was brought up with her
at Versailles.

DEATHS OF Two CHILDREN BY FIRE.—On Thurs.
day night Mr. W. Paine held two inquests at Guy's Hos-
pital, on the bodies of John Bannen, aged two Tears, and
Tamer Johnson, aged six. In the former case it appears
that the parents of the deceased reside in Green- bank,- St.
Olive's, and on Monday forenoon last the child was at play
with some other children in a room in which there was a
fire, and in poking a piece of wood amongst the burning
coals, his pinafore ignited, and he was shockingly burnt be-
fore the fire could be extinguished. He was removed imme-
diately to the above hospital, where he expired on Tuesday.
In the second case the deceased's parents have the care of
chambers in Great Tower- street, City, and on Tuesda y fore-
noon she was sitting before the fire when a burning coal flew
out of the grate and into her lap, and ignited her pinafore.
Her screams brought assistance, but the Eire was not extin-
guished before she was dreadfully burnt. She. was taken to
the hospital, where she expired on Wednee4ay. Verdict,
in each case, "Accidental death."

ACCIDENT AT THE BOX STATION
OF THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.

Thursday night the luggage-train, drawn by three en.
gines, and consisting of upwards of 40 trucks and two third-
class passenger carriages ;started from the Box station.
Almost immediately s _bock was felt by the passengers,
which was followed Is 'some minutes by a fearful tgrating
sound and terrific jerks of the carriage. All was alarm and
consternation, when suddenly they were thrown off the line.
The night was intensely dark, the wind blew a hurricane,
not a solitary lamp to point to safety or warn of danger.
The night-man bad arrived, and had promptly disengaged
the alarmed third-raters, but lie was as dark as to the cause
of the accident'as the night around him. On proceeding
down the line a short distance from Middle-hill Tunnel, the
mystery was unravelled, the great cause was apparent. The
engine lay in distress, unable, with all her immense power, to
do more than puff and fume, and smoke and hiss.
The driver and stoker, though frightened within an inch
of their lives, had most fortunately that inch left to relate the
cause, and marvel at the effect.
They had literally fired a broadside into the passing train.
It appeared that at this station, an engine called the bank
engine, is kept for the purpose of following the luggage
train, and assisting it up the inclined plane, which con-
tinues through the Box Tunnel. The wind being excessively
rough, had blown out the station lights, and the driver hav-
ing heard the whistle and seen the head lights pass, started
his engine from its place, and in an instant almost it was
thrown down, having struck the train about eight or nine
trucks from its end, and one only from the passenger car-
riages. The force with which the engine came, drove both
itself and the following trucks in the train completely off the
rails, and, strange to say, they. were dragged on for a quarter
of a mile, ploughing up in their rugged course the transoms
and the framing, when the couples having given way, the
leading truck went over into the bank above.
"All hands" were immediately called. The mail train was
stopped, and the passengers, unhurt in body, but unhinged
in mind, being transferred, were shifted to the down line,
and proceeded to their destination in safety.
Upwards of 50 men were very shortly at work, and by
nine o'cl.ck, under the able direction of Mr. Clarke, of Bris-
tol, who were early on the spot, all appearance of accident
had almost vanished.
It appears that not the slightest blame can be attached to
Temple, the driver, who bears the highest character, the
tempestuousness of the night and the length of the train
combining, as it were to deceive him. had he been only
half a moment later in starting how dreadful might have been
the result !
Strange to say, the luggage train continued its course to
Chippenham before the guards were conscious of their loss or
the accident.

LIARS AND SON.

This day, pursuant to circular, a meeting of the creditors
of Messrs. Richard Williams and Sons, bankers and stock-
brokers, was held at the counting-house of the firm, in Dame-
street, in this city. The result, we are happy to say, fully
bears out the anticipation of a satisfactory arrangement. All
the principal creditors were in attendance. The claims
against the firm amounted to about 100,0001., their assets
to 116,000/., leaving a very considerable balance, and a rea-
sonablo time only was required to meet every engagement
in full. This statement of the affairs of the firm was so
favourable, that general surprise was expressed at the sus-
pension of business, when, if moderate accommodation were
obtained from the Bank of Ireland, there need not have
been any interruption. IVhether such accommodations wore
applied for did not transpire. The creditors at once con-
sented to give even more time than was asked, and ulti-
mately it was arranged that the payments should be made
at periods of six, twelve, eighteen, and twenty-four months.
This is the only failure, if failure it can be called, of an
extensive firm that has taken place in this city for a con-
siderable time; and as the firm of Williams and Son has been
one of long standing and of the highest character, it is very
gratifying to find that it will be able fully to meet its en-
gagements. The firm will continue business, as stock and
sharebrokers, as well as notaries to the Bank of Ireland.
