OLYMPIC.

Miss Davenport appeared last evening in the cha-
racter of Juliana in Tobin's comedy, of the Honey
Moon. There is a freshness and an originality about
this young lady's style of acting which, in these days
of dramatic conventionalisms, is really delightful. She
is the servile follower of no school. It is evident that
she thinks for herself, and, in every instance, exer-
cises her own taste and judgment; and as that taste
is pure and exquisite, and that judgment is sound and
correct, it is no wonder that her success is complete.
Her Juliana is beautiful. She depicted the wayward,
high. spirited, warm-hearted girl to the life. Her in-
dignation at the vile deception which she imagines
has been practised on her was admirably given, and
beautifully did she delineate the gradual awakening of
the better feelings of her heart, until at length she be-
comes reconciled to her fate, and really loves the man
whom she had at one time determined to hate. We
have never seen a more beautifully natural and artless
Juliana. Her reading of the part is new, but we are
satisfied that it is the correct one. Waldron, albeit
Somewhat heavy, made a respectable Duke Aranza ;
and Rayner, as the mock Duke, was first-rate. His
assumption of the dignified bearing of a sovereign
prince, as he sits in judgment, was one of the richest
pieces of humour we have seen for many years, and
reminded us of what the drama was in its palmy
days. With regard to the other characters, perhaps
the least said the better. The pantomime, which
seems to increase in attraction the oftener it is re-
peated, followed. It is worth paying a visit to see
the delight of the children at this pantomime. Mr.
Davenport has created a revolution in the nursery,
for it will be henceforth useless to attempt to awe
children into good behaviour by threatening them
with " Old Bogie." He is now their pet instead of
being their terror. The theatre was well attended.

THE STATE OF PUNCH'S REVENUE.—Contempora-
neous with the official returns of last year's public re-
venue, Punch has been looking into his own, which is
highly satisfactory. Without goint, into figures, we may
announce a steady increase in the colsumption of jokes ;
which leads to the gratifying inference that persons who
have hitherto been utterly destitute of fun have been able
to enjoy the luxury. The reserved fund (of humour)
which Punch has at command is promising for the year
that has just commenced ; and on making up our books
at the (lid of the twelvemonth, we trust the returns will
be as satisfactory as usual.—Punch.
PUBLIC RECORDS OF AMERICA.—The Legislature
of the State of New York have directed the trustees of
the State Library belonging to that city, in consideration
of a valuable acknowiedp,rment from this country, to
transmit annually to the Commissioners of Public Re-
cords here copies of the American session laws, &c.
Nearly 200 volumes or these records of the United States
arrived a few days since in a vessel from New York, ad-
dressed to "The Commissioners of Public Records of
Great Britain," and will be delivered to that depart mei
in pursuance of directions from the proper authorities,
without payment of the usual duties on foreign books,
being for the public service.

Cateract, Extempore, Hemp, and Dog Billy. The odds
quoted against Foig-a-ballagh, Valerian, Celeste, Por-
trait, Alice Hawthorn, and Zanoni, were laid only to
small sums, and were subsequently offered. Everything
warrants an expectation that the acceptances will be
very numerous, and the betting more extensive, and in
larger amounts than on any previous occasion.

1250 to 50 agst Collier and Miss Whip colt—taken
The only bets laid against the late first favourite were
at 15 and 1G to 1 in fifties, the higher odds being offered
at the close. Alarm was backed first at 15 to 1, and
afterwards at a point lower, the taker willing to go on.
Nothing done on Ides and Pam, and only one bet (to
our knowledge) of 1,900 to 100 agst the Cobweb colt.
Annandale, Newsmonger, Fitzallen, the colt out of
Calypso's dam, and Connaught Ranger, were in con-
siderable force at the prices returned. The last-men-
tioned horse was expected to reach Mitchell-grove on
Sunday.

LONDON, TUESDAY, JANUARY 21, 1845.

The state of the Protestant Church now impera-
tively calls for the interference of Parliament. The
Bishops have been appealed to in defence of the Re-
formed Religion. The heresies of Oxford, the Popish
rites and ceremonies practised in many churches, and
the commotion excited among the people by the
wicked attempts of perjured men to deAtroy the great
work of the Reformation, have all been placed before
tluir eyes in vain. Archbishops and Bishops are

BANDON AND BANTRY.—A deputation from the lnglish
Proprietary, accompanied by their Secretary, William Black,
&q., had an interview with the Directors of the Cork and
Baadon Railway and the Provisional Committee of the
Bantry Extension line on Monday, when arrangements of a
most satisfactory nature were arrived at, and the necessary
documents prepared for coming before Parliament with
couraging prospects of success. The deputation will in-
sptct the line previous to their return to London, with a view
at carrying out other objects contemplated of the most im-

THE GREAT MUNSTER.--MT. Brown, one of the en-

nine days during the present week, having completed the
ervey of and laid down the line from Listowel to Tralee.
11 a past number of our paper, we stated that the levels be-
ween the former town and Listowel were only equalled by

RAILWAY SPECULATION.

The following is a further extract from the pamphlet
we quoted in our City Article of Friday, entitled " A
Short and Sure Guide to Railway Speculation," and it
is worth attention from those who are interested in such
transactions:—

" As regards the purchase of shares in established
lines, we have simply to compare the market price of
the share with the dividend which it pays ; and the
comparison is the more easy, as railway dividends have
hitherto been less liable to diminution than those of
any other description of Stock. It will be rempm-
bored that, within no very remote period, the dividend
on Bank of England Stock has been reduced from 10
to 8, and from 8 to 7 per cent. ; but upon few, if any,
of the great lines of railway have the dividends ever
been reduced, except by spreading them over new crea-
tions of capital ; and as the shares into which this
new capital has been divided, have usually been distri-
buted amongst the Proprietors at par, when they were
selling at a considerable premium, the bonus thus given
has been more than equivalent to any reduction in the
dividend. The calculation, then, is within the capacity
of a school-boy. Taking the value of money at four
per cent., the shares in a railway that pays six per
cent. per annum are worth 1501. each. If bought below
these prices, the purchaser is receiving, pro tento, a
better rate of interest than four per cent. ; and he
will expect this better rate, in propirtion to any doubt
he may have with respect to the dividend being main-
tained. This will apply to purchasing for investment.
In purchasing the share of an established line on spe-
culation the same rule may he adopted. If shares
already at a premium are expected to rise, they may
be purchased with safety, should the dividend yield
three or four per cent. upon the price of the day, in-
cluding the premium ; as, should the buyer be disap-
pointed in his expectation of an early advance, he is
at least receiving an interest of three or four per cent.
on the amount ha has invested, and may, therefore,
wait patiently till the rise takes place. With this view,
shares of 1001. each, paying. five per cent. dividend,
may be worth buying at from 1251. to 1651. a share, and
others in the same proportion, provided there is a rea-
sonable prospect, either of better dividends, or:of any
other improvement in the value of the property. The
shares of lines which are not paying any dividend, or a
very trifling one, may be a good investment in the
hands of those who are acquainted with the causes of
the failure, and know that there is a probability of their
being removed : but these remarks are not intended for
them ; they are merely addressed to the inexperienced.

Another extensive importation of live stock for our market has
taken place during the last week ; we having received 100 oxen and
cows, together with 220 sheep, 14 lambs, and 10 calves, per steamers,
f can Rotterdam; while from Hamburgh 26 oxen have come to
hand, in, for the most part, in good condition. At the outports, in-
cluding Ireland and Scotland, about 200 beasts and 50 sheep have
been imported. There were on offer 164 Dutch oxen and cows, together
with 64 sheep, nearly the whole of which found buyers, at rates
about equal to those obtained last week. By far the
largest 'portion was purchased by the butchers ; but a
few of the beasts were taken for grazing purposes.
From our own grazing districts the Bullock droves fresh up were
again extensive, amounting to neatly 4,000 bead ; but compara-
tively speaking, of middling quality. The primest Scots, Devons,
Runts, &c., moved off steadily at prices quite equal to those realised
on this day se'imight. In the middling and inferior qualities of Beef
only a limited business was doing, and previous rates were with
difficulty supported. The northern droves, viz., those from Lincoln-
shire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, &c., amounted to 1,800
Short-horns. From the eastern counties about 400 Scots, Home-
breds, and Short-horns, came to hand. The numbers from the
western and midland districts, 500 Devons, Bunts, Herefords,
&c. ; from other parts of England 400 of various breeds;
from Scotland, 140 Scots; and from Ireland, 90 Beasts.
The number of Sheep were somewhat on the increase, and of im-
proved quality. Prime old Downs commanded a ready sale at full
prices—viz. 4s 8d to 5s per Sibs; in other kinds of Sheep,
however, only a moderate business was transacted, and currencies
were with difficulty maintained. Lambs, tile supply of which was
' by no means extensive, moved off slowly, at last week's figures.
The Veal trade was steady, at Friday's enhanced rates. The supply
of Pigs, 161—comi4ing those received from Ireland—was good:
while the Pork trade was firm, at full prices.

THE EXPERIMENTAL SQUADRON

(lfrom a Second Edition of the Deronport Telegraph of Saturday,)
The St. Vincent, 120, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral Hyde
Parker, C. 8., arrived in the Sound this morning, at about half-past
one o'clock. Ihe Gallant Admiral, we regret to state, is still con-
lined to his cabin. The Queen and Albion closely followed, these
ships (with the Trafalgar) forming the weather line of the fleet ; the,
latter, however: did hot arrive until the leward line (consisting of
the Canopus, Rodney, Superb, and Vanguard) had anchored—all
before four o'clock, the Trafalgar not anchoring until half-past six.
The Gallant Admiral Sir Samuel Pym, K.C.8., will here supersede
Admiral Parker, and the squadron will in a few days, wind permitting,
proceed on a further cruise of six weeks, at the close of which they
ra:uru to this port.

This Railway is projected to supply the only link remaining *to
complete a communication by Railway from London to Falmouth on
the broad gauge. Already open to Exeter, the Great Western Rail-
way is now being extended to Crediton, and from thence the North
Devon Company intend to construct a main line to join their North
and South Devon Line in the neighbourhood of Hatherleigh, 30 miles
directly west from Exeter ; thence the intended line will proceed by
Launceston, -Bodmin, and Truro, to Falmouth, a . distance of about
70 miles, which may thus be brought within eight hours, of London.
A branch from the main line near Bodmin n ill join the South
Devon and Tavistock line near Plymouth.
Cornwall, now divided into two great parties, will by this scheme
be united ieto one common effort to carry out the best practicable
lines on the broad gauge.
The survey is in progress ; and a further prospectus, with the
names of a powerful committee, will shortly be published. In the
interim applications for shares may [be made, and communications
addressed to Messrs. Keddell, Baker, and Grant, Lime-street, Lon-
don ; and to Mr. John Stogden, solicitor, Exeter.

BLUNT'S REFORMAI lON IN ENGLAND.
In a pocket volume, neatly printed, price 55., bound in cloth,
A, SKETCH OF -THE REFORMATION IN
ENGLAND. By the Rev. J. J. BLUNT, Fellow of St.
John's College, Cambridge: The Eighth Edition, corrected, forming
part of the Family Library.
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 both. 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 of 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.

SCOTCH LINES.
DUNDEE AND ARBROATH.

On Monday a special meeting of the Proprietors of this
Company was held in the Town Hall at Dundee, Mr. Wil-
liam Thorns, Dean of Guild, •ne of the Directors, in the
chair, to receive a requisition for the formation of a branch
from Broughly Ferry to Forfar. There was a numerous
attendance. _

The report of the Directors stated that after considering
the subject fully, and having a report by a deputation from
their number before them, they had come to the determina-
tion that it was inexpedient for the Dundee and Arbroath

to undertake the proposed extension.
.....
Mr. ARCHIBALD HASTIE, M.P., said he had expected that
some of the requisitionists would have have come forward,
and have stated the grounds on which they subscribed to the
requisition, and moved the approval of the report, which was
seconded by Mr. D. BAXTER.
Mr. GEORGE KINLOCH, thought the Directors had come
to a wise decision in rejecting it. But he would have liked
to know what led the Directors to that conclusion. At the
same time he thought it very likely that such a line would
be taken up in these days of railway speculation, but still he
considered that the Dundee and Arbroath Company should
stick to the good concern which they already had by the
hand, and endeavour to increase their revenue by lowering
the fares and otherwise promoting traffic on their line.
Lord KINNAIRD differed in opinion from the gentlemen
who had already spoken. He thought that a direct railway
communication betwixt Dundee and Forfar was of great im-
pnrtauancia,n_adnttaghaet in the hands of the existing lines it would
