OFFICE IN LONDON, 7, PALL-MALL  The Directors of the Brighton and Chichester Railway Com. pany have well considered the various projects for the formation of railways to Portsmouth, by routes between the London and Brighton and the South-Western Railways; and they feel convinced that, whichever line may be sanctioned by Parliament, the extension of the Chichester line to Portsmouth and Fareham cannot fail to protect the interest of the Proprietors of the Brighton and Chichester line.  4,Z IR W. BURNETT'S PATENT Ly The cheapest and best process for the Preseryation of Timber, Canyas, Cordage, Cotton, Woollen &c. Licenses granted to Noblemen and Gentlemen to use the Preparation ; and to others for the purposes of Trade, en advantageous, terms.  The execution of the works, with a double line of rails, including Parliamentary and all other expenses, will cost 280,0004 according to an estimate made by Mr. Itastricks, the engineer of the Company,  It was then resolved to publish these resolutions in the North British Advertiser and Montrose newspapers, and the thanks of the Meeting having been unanimously voted to Provost Jameson for his conduct in the chair, the meeting separated.  On Tuesday, at twelve o'clock, an inquest was held before Mr. A. Woods, deputy coroner for the borough, on view of the body. A respectable jury had been summoned, consisting of eighteen persons. After viewing the body, which presented a frightful spectacle, they re-assembled at the police court at the Town-hall, and continued their inquiry for six hours. Seven witnesses were examined, who deposed to the facts above stated, and the jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against some person or persons unknown."  WM. JAMESON, Provost.  It is intended to take powers in the Act to let on lease or sell the Extension Line, when made, either to the London and Brighton Railway Company, to the South-Western Railway Company, or to any other Company or party, should any such arrangement be deemed advantageous to the Shareholders. The Directors have great satisfaction in stating, that they have received from the inhabitants of Portsmouth strong assurances of their approbation of the proposed extension being made by the Brighton and Chichester Company, which was communicated to them by the resolutions of a public meeting, held at Portsmouth, upon the requisition of nearly 3,000 persons. The opening of an extended coast line, taking over it, as this line must do, the great proportion of the traffic from London to Portsmouth, will ensure such an extensive revenue that a return must be produced sufficient to pay a very satisfactory interest upon the capital subscribed. The Directors have submitted their views, es regards the pro. posed extension, to the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade, and fully expect that the strength and justice of their case will ensure a favourable report from their Lordships, the approval of the Government and the public, and the sanction of Par. liament.
