The new Charing-cross Bridge will compare advantageously with any structure of its class. It is a lattice bridge, resting on cart-iron columns, with spans of 154 feet between each opening. The roadway is laid with four lines of rails, and the foot passenger traffic is provided for ou each aide the bridge, by carrying out two seven feet paths, resting on iron brackets and divided from the railroad by a low railing. The colouring of this bridge has been the subject I of many experiments ; but at length an effect has been produced which is generally regarded as extremelfutiitable. Venetian red buboes-selected llt for the general colouring, with a gilding for the ornamentations and for all the bosses and pin heads of the iron work. The general effect is admirable, especially under the effect of sunshine The bridge itself has been well adapted to railway purposes, but it may be questioned if its architec tural effect is not somewhat marred by the station signals with which it has been found necessary to surmount it. The great extent and diversity of the traffic which is expected at the Charing-cross station renders these station signals desirable ; otherwise, as the South Eastern line itself is worked by telegraph from station to station, such elaborate precautions would scarcely appear necessary. After crossing the bridge to the Lambeth shore, between Messrs. Goding's Brewery upon the left and the new range of buildings erected as store warehouses for the India government upon the right, the passenger will begin to appreciate the very different character of the property on either side the Thames. He has just left " the finest site in Europe" on the Charing-cross shore ; on the Lambeth side he reaches a most wretchedly dilapi dated district, extending from the southern bank of the Thames to the point in the Waterloo-road at which the Charing-cross line forms a junction with the South Western. In this limited journey several skew bridges are thrown across the streets ; and here it may be observed that whilst on the street aide those bridges by no means present an attrac tive appearance, from the railway they are distin guished by the superior character of their engineer ing construction. A curve from the York-road to the Waterloo-road brings the Charing-crces line to the point at the east front of the South Western station, at which the two lines are to correspond. If the correspond ence is to be complete, there must, however, be more convenient accommodation at this junction. At present the passengers for the two lines will have to change carriages and pass across a platform in order to effect a communication : in fact it does not yet appear bow the two companies will work their lines so as to give the passengers on the South Western line the advantage of passing to Charing-cross, or those from the City and Charing cross the advantage of using the South Western. This is a very important matter ; and it may be especially commended to the attention of the South Western directorate. It cannot be expected that when the Charing-cross line is opened their short traffic passengers from Richmond, Kingston, Hamp ton Court, Leatherhead, &c., will be content to be landed in the dirty purlieus of the Waterloo-road, although the manager of the South Western does think, as he told the House of Lords, that "the Waterloo station is • very convenient station indeed," and that "it is not so necessary to get to Charing-cross, because," as he says, "1 think the Waterloo is sufficiently convenient for that part of London. It is just as well to say at once that the public do not agree with Mr. Scott. The South Western passengers will demand to be carried toCharing-eross, although Mr. Scott " does not think that it would be any ad vantage to them." The question between the com panies is probably a question of terms. Without professing or desiring to know anything on that head, the interests of the public demand that the terms should be settled. After passing the Waterloo junction, the Charing cross line proceeds to the east, with three lines of rails, one of which is intended to be exclusively appro. printed to the traffic from Charing-cross to Cannon street, when the Cannon-street branch is finished. The first crossing after leaving Waterloo is at Broad wall, on the west side of the Blackfriars-road. The Blackfriars-road station is on the east side of that road, and immediately adjoins what is best known as "Rowland Hill's Chapel." The Blackfriais-road station is handsome and commodious, with double platforms of great length. Evidently a large traffic is expected at this point, both for east and west, and considering the population iu the immediate vici nity, it can scarcely be doubted that there will be a very great number of passengers in each direction, if the fares admit, and if trains are run with sufficient frequency and despatch. This Blackfriars road station, it may be observed, is the great in termediate station of the line. Just beyond the Blackfriars-road the Charing cross line is crossed, ou a still higher level than its own, by the Loudon, Chatham, and Dover Railway from the Elephant and Castle to Blackfriars-bridge. At this point a tine view is obtained of St. Paul's Cathedral, which, despite the elevation of the rail way, looks higher and more majestic than ever. Passing ou from the Blackfriara to the Southwark bridge-road, the hue passes through a district which it is of immense advantage to the metropolis to open. For years past the property on what was known as the Winchester-house estate, in South wark (the ancient site of the episcopal palace of the bishops of Winchester), has been an opprobrium of the metropolis. Air and light have now been let into this filthy locality, and a number of works have also been revealed the very existence of which in Southwark had previously only been known to the initiated ; amongst others, some very extensive iron foundries, which come close up to the railway, and demonstrate that all "the Borough" is not devoted to the manufacture of silk hats. Just before the line reaches Union-square, Messrs. Potts' extensive vinegar-ground is passed, and a distant view ia obtained of Southwark-bridge. Shortly after the line reaches the new street, formed, under the direction of the Metropolitan Board of Works, to make as approach to Loudon-bridge from Westminster, and which is to be opened on the same day as the railway. A sharp curve NEW RAILWAY PROJECTS. THE CHARINO-CROSS AND LONDON-BRIDGE LINE. The government inspector, having been over the line from Charing-croon to London-bridge, has repotted it to be in a condition suited for traffic, and the lot of January, 1841, has accordingly been appointed for opening the railway to the public. It is to be hoped that the resolution may be carried into effect. The only obstacle that can arise will proceed from the backward state of the works at the Charing-cross station. The line itself is finished; the bridges, the permanent way, the points and signals all in perfect order. At the stations, how ever, the works are incomplete. At London-bridge much remains to be done to provide for the accom modation of the public. At the Blackfriars-road the bricklayers and carpenters have finished, but the painters have only just commenced their work, whilst at Charing-cruse everything is at present "in course of construction ;" and, with Christmas holidays intervening, it certainly looks as if it was impossible that that station could be ready in a fortnight. Anticipating, however, that wonders can be done where money and energy are both abundant, it may be interesting to the public to know with what facilities they will be accommodated on the let of January next, and what they will meet with in the new and expeditious route which will then be opened to them between Charing-cross and London• bridge. The extensiveness of the Charing-cross station every Londoner has seen from above the hoarding. At present it is so incomplete that it is not easy to know what to make of it ; but the engineer assured the House of Lords, some months ago, that "the Charing-cross terminus would be a handsome thing that would not disgrace the metropolis," and every reliance may be placed on that assurance. Certainly there is every reason why this ter minus should be what it is described. Of necessity it has costa vast amount of money. It coven the whole site of Hungerford Market, and all the land from Vtlliersstreet to Craven-street. Those who may have passed under its arches, on the old line of route from Scotland-yard to the Adelphi, cannot have failed to notice the immense breadth of ground it covers. If they will take the trouble of walking down Villiers-street from the Strand to the banks of the Thames, they will be equally sato iislied at the length of ground the station occupies, and at its great height and substantial appearance. The exterior of the Charing-cross station is, however, at present in the rudest state, and there fore quite unfit for criticism. Passing through the booking-offices and other buildings to the station itself, the works will be found to be at present almost equally unfinished. The station, however, into which the passengers will enter from Charing cross will be obviously a very fine one. Our Lou don stations are remarkable for their extent ; but this will be the largest of any at present erected. Its dimensions will measure 460 feet in length, 170 in width, and 100 in height ; and it will, therefore, be admitted to be very large and very lofty. Per haps its great size will be its chief characteristic. Travellers accustomed to continental stations know that whilst ours at home are distinguished for the solidity of their aspect, those abroad are remarkable for their aerial character. The Charing-cross station [Stamped, id. Additional.) brings the new railway to its junction with the Cannon-street line. Here we may pause to asy that this CI extension and station are planned for construction on the most enlarged scale. The new railway-bridge across the Thames at Southwark will be of five spans, three of 136 and two of 125 feet each ; it is to be 6t feet in width, and will be laid for no less than five lines of rails. The station into which it will conduct will be one of the finest in the world. It will be 580 feet long, more than 200 feet wide, and nearly 150 feet high. This portion of the railway is only in course of construc tion ; the bridge is only jest commenced. It will require a year and a Lalf or two years to complete, but when finished it may be expected to be unsur passed. From the point at which the Cannon-street line diverges the new railway becomes particularly in teresting. The new thoroughfare of the Metropoli. tan Board of Works is here crossed by a lattice bridge of very elegant construction. Seen through this bridge, on the right, are some of those huge granaries and hop warehouses which are so common on the south side of the Thames. On the left a building is thrown opeisof great aktesatzedof more than ordinary interest—to wit, Barclay and Per kins' Brewery, from which a fragrant scent of " porter-beer " arises to stimulate the palate of the thirsty foreigner. Just beyond this point the Borough market "is reached—a wretched agglo meration of potato merchants and greengrocers' stalls—which having for a long series of years been a decided nuisance in a confined locality, is now deriving importance from the position in which the new thoroughfare and new railroad have each con tributed to place it. At this point works of construction of an interesting character have been undertaken for the improvement of the market, At this point, also, the superb Church of St. Saviour's, Southwark (or St Mary Ovary, as it was called in days of yore), is for the first time com pletely thrown open to public view, presenting the finest specimen of early English architecture in ' London, and actually rivalling Westminster Abbey in many of its architectural peculiarities. The line panes through two high bridges, over Bridge-street, Southwark, and the entrance to the London bridge station. A curve, however, brings into sight the Brighton and Crystal Palace station, the new hotel at the London-bridge terminus, and the terminus of the South Eastern Railway itself, where the passenger is bid to observe that be is on the " new and direct overland route to India" —between which and Charing-cross he is left to imagine that there are " no stoppages." At this point the passenger from Charing-cross reaches his terminus. It is the old one, of yore devoted to Greenwich traffic, but now very much enlarged and improved. Having set him down at this point, let us say a few words upon the line in general. All who travel over it will, we have no doubt, ad mit that tbeCharing-croes new line is magnificently constructed, that it effects great public improve ments in the district through which it passes, and that it promises to afford a vast amount of public accommodation. Will it relieve the streets, and will it pay T These are the two great problems affecting it which have to be decided by experience. Too much must not be expected of the line at first. It is only when its communications with Cannon-street are finished that the real value of the metropolitan traffic of the line will be developed. If it should be open to London- bridge on the Ist of January next the line will also be subject to disadvantages arising from the unfinished condition of the Charing-cross station, which we cannot hope to see in working order by that date. But, on the other baud, if this Charing cross Railway, by the time parliament meets in February, should be exercising a wholesome in fluence on the street traffic of Fleet-street and the Strand—if it should be found that it offers facilities for both metropolitan and suburban traffic, and that the number of passengers using it are likely to secure a return for the immense outlay its construe tion has invo!ved—in such case there can be no doubt that the results of this line will greatly affect the decisions of parliament upon the important subject of metropolitan communications, and will lead to indications of public opinion in its favour as marked as those which, in January, 1863, fol lowed the opening of the line from Farringdon street to Paddington.

Their Royal Highnesees the Prince and Princess of Wales arrived at the Royal Clarence-yard, Gosport, yes terday afteesoon at two o'clock, and embarked on board the screw yacht Fairy, for conveyance to Osborne. The old formalities were dispensed with, and there was nothing to indicate the royal presence. The Lyra, 9, sore. sloop, was commissioned yesterday morning for 'eyries on the Past India station. The Octavia, 36, screw frigate, is ordered to be docked, and brought forward for the let division of the steam re serve, so as to be ready for the pendent when required. The Hector, 32, iron screw frigate, got up ber steam alongside the dockyard on Monday for a preliminary trial of her machinery, and to-day made au official trial of her speed at the measured mile io Stokes Ray. The Hector differs from all the iron-caned ships at present in commission, chiefly in . the construction of her stern, which is not built square or round, word ing to the old plan, but is brought to an eagle MlN thing like the stein and stern of the old floating batteries. Her trial to-day was at full boiler power, and she realised a mean speed of llyknots, which is under the estimate ol what she would attain. She, however, draws more water thee wee intended by the official drawings, and the in. creased dispLicenieut would of course tend to affect her rats of speed. The half boiler trials will be made to-morrow, if the weather be favourable. CHATHAM, Dec. Arrangements had been made for launching the iron-clad Mote Achilles at high tide today, but in cones queues of the depth of water in the dock being insufficient to float a vessel of her dimensions and tacos's, the attempt was not attended with success. 10 COllOOllOOOOO of the strong northerly wind yesterday the tide on Tuesday rem to an unusual height, end had the whole of the arrangements' been completed the Achilles might have been undocked without any difficulty. The work of cutting away the pro jesting granite sides of the dock and the removal of ti e 011.100 at the eotraaoe bad not been completed is sufficient time, the workrueu having been employed in those opera tions the whole of last night. On the water being admitted into the dock last evening the Achilles Boated for the first time, her draught of water being ali.htly over twenty feet. In consequence of a change in the wind the tide this morning was several feet lower than that of yesterday, the depth of water in the dock belies issufficiein to float the iron ship. The launch, consequently, did not tale place, but attempts will 1 / 4 1 made to undock the Achilles to-night, should the tide be ■ufli oleotly high, and several hundred workmen are ordered to remain in the dockyard all night to saint in the operation of launching the imafrigate.

The appeal points out that the ultimate decision of the dispute would not be brought about in Frankfort, but in the various States. The people should operate upon the governments by every legal means, and press for the convocation of all the Diets not at present sitting. Each man should act as if all depended upon his single exertions.

Magnin was declared valid. The report of the committee on the loan was read to-day in the Corps Legislatif. The com mittee declares that if it accepts the loan it is no way to afford the government the means of easily entering upon an exaggerated expenditure. "We insist, on the contrary," continues the report, "that, in order that the government may confine itself to the ordinary resources in our budgets, it shall cot incur extraordinary expenses, which would have the most serious consequences iu future. Let us be able to resist the allurements of glory, and enjoy what we have acquired. With this we can honourably desire the peace which the people so greatly need. (At this point in the reading of the report much approbation was manifested in the Chamber.) Let us have peace, and the state of our finances will ameliorate. We shall then be able to employ larger sunis upon public works, a fruitful source of the wealth and prosperity of our population. The report then proceeds to examine several forms of negotiation for the loan, particularly that of public subscription, and also discusses the rate of emission, but leaves the decision on these points to the government. The committee propose the rejection of the amendment reducing the emission of treasury bonds in 1864 to 100,000,000 francs, but admit in principle the necessity for this reduc tion, and will fix the amount of it during the debate on the Budget. The government has already declared that it will reduce the maximum f0r1864 to 1.150,001/,COO franc*. The debate on the loan is fixed for to-morrow. PARIS, Dec. 23, 3.31 r.m.
