I ' , Lawson& TRAFFIC —The first subject that has engaged the attention of the committee eas been the passenger traffic; and the following state was delivered, which shwa the Hodes of the station aid the wharf traffic, during three years, from the lot of July, 1846 : Amount. Men let July Maid Detembse, 1110... I,7 Pl ril, It .. .421.31 It 1 From tot Jensen to 30th Jose, 1617 1,331,1113 .. 22,060 13 0 hem let July to Met Dreseelser, lel7 1,543,113 ... 26,11.57 II 10 From Ist January to 20ta June, 160_ 1,171110 ... 22,022 17 10 hese let July to Met Dtemater, IMS 1,426,141 ... 21,303 13 2 From tat January to NM June, MM 1,916,1 N ... 1',631 12 6 It is to be observed than s teat the actual decline of of thwtraffic is somewhat gnaw ppean on the hos this gate man, imamate as the later roam addi the traffic on the atessies lice. The oossaiuee made an inquiry as to the supposed canals of the decline of this traffic, and it was stetted to them that they were considered to be the great deepreesion of trade which has prevailed during a large portion of the time ; the attraction of other Stuns of a envoy aim, mid of other pints of public resist ; and latterly the epidemic. But although each of these circumstances may have contributed to the di minutia of the traffic, your committee are nct diapoied to lettribute lb. whole of the decrease to these senses alone. • rpm a comparison of the dates of the decline of the bails in each divisin, it would appear that a large parties of the decrease took place before see of the alleged names rearctively 'needed them came into open - ion; and the trafile moreover of this railway, appears to have declined in a very mach larger proportion than that of say other railway in the kingdom: it is, therefor*, dif- Moult to suppose that the whole effect can jarly be eseribed to the untoward eircumsteans_which. have been enumerated. The committee made an inspection of the whole line, and it occurred to them that the mode of conducting the tick S depar ment was open to groat o'l sties. It appeared that the proceeds might be deceased by • frandalent we of the tidies, by the abuse of giving free passages over the =Sway, or by negligence la allaying persons to pre with ese paying their tan; sad the system pursued woad not died ass, of detection. The committee terve no actual Itrownd fur the imputation of the first of them offences, but Shay neve great reason to believe that the plastics of greatiog free passages has bees extended beyond its Jast emit, and they know that due are has not been remised Is preventing persons from entering the carriages without paying their tares. The careerism of the rouse taken in delivering sad receiving the tickets might be ascertained by counting tlo- number of pssons in a train, and com periog the number with the return made; but the slates of the tickets and by the company renders this imposeble. Although there are fiety•eight trains nosing daily, the tickets do not contain the hosts for which they are teased, sad they have hitherto been taken from the penengers almost the instant they were d‘ limed to them. With a view to correct this evil, and for the purpose of introducing a stricter economy is the expenditure, the com mittee were disposed to recommend a limited and imperil. mental trial of s negation which had bola made some time dams by • member of the Board et Dire dars, vie., that of introdoeing tamales ; bat somas, isosavenienees are, as itemised to the sommittee, justly stated as likely to re sult hoes etskieg this experiment, even en a limited scale, that they unmated themselves with advising that the hour of departure should be marked on the tickets. Bat they regret that the apprehension of its acessioning too mach trouble appears to deter the dkestors from adopting this measure. 1 The directors have indeed sow eo arraawd the bow that , the ti c kets, instead of being sakes sway instantly, is hero tonne, are retained by the passenger until their hydra 1 proms ea the platform, and are then delivered to one of the clerks. This mode probably renders more difficult any attempt at fraudulent collusion in wing the same tickets • second time, but it does not assist in detecting any aegligence in allowing pews. to pas* without paving their fare*, or auy endue et:tension of the privilege of granting free pamezes. It would seem also that eaten the directors be made acquainted with the number of passengers in s ch train, they must be deprived of the pomades aeons of Tualatin; the number sod hours of the Palo eetair 'oily with the advantage of the railway and as essvenience of the public.

EASTERN CoutnTias RAiLWAT —When the Blackwell - extension line was first pnieeted, it was intended to be me rited on to Epping. TWO schema was opposed by the Eastern Counties Company, and an arrangement was subs. quently entered into beton; the two compaske, by wb cb the ex tension line was not to {mewled beyond Bow ; an act of para.. men* was passed to this effect; and by • douse in the act, the Zenon Counties Company have the power of running on the Blackwell line from Bow to Stepney ,• and if any question should arise respecting the fares to be charged, it is to be decided by the railway sommiestonera. The Eastern Counties Company, it appears, made an agreement with the Blackwell Railway C empany, signed on their behalf, by their solicitor, engaging to grant all facilities in their power to parties wishing to travel from the stations on deli line to Femchureltatteet, in preference to Shoreditch ; and they further agreed that the terms upon which these facilities should be given should be left to the adjustment of Mr. Stephenson and Mr. Locke. It is to be regretted that the substance of this agree. melt in favour of the Blackwell Railway was not embodied 'in the act of parliament in a manner a sitar to the el me inserted in favour of the Eastern Counties Com pany. It is not intooded to say that this circumstance affords ground for apprehension that the age• omens will prove has veld on this account ; hut the committee are of opinion, that an agreement of this fortresses ought on all occasions to be put in that form by which it can, in else of necessity, ha most readily and least expensively enforced. I Differences have arisen between toe directors of the two companies respecting the coast:action to be put neon, and the meaning to be ameba to this agreement. This quo.. le„, it appears, has been In dispute sines July, 1645. Das hog one interval of several months the vats of the liasterni, Cowen, Company n•csosarily precluded its being con. 'tiered; but the committee are not aware of the other IDlDUDiatanee• witch h.ve prevented its being brought to an earlier issue. The committee finding the question amps randy In abeyance, recommended to the director, if they could not at ones sire, to request the donators of the ' &dent Counties Company to refer the matter, according to the tenor of their agreement, to the adjustmeot of Mr. Stephenson and Mr. Locke, for the committers felt satisfied tit the necessity of to raging the question to an immediate Wee. After some further negotiation, the directory on the 14th of Nod tabor, 1819, made a propositiou to the directors es the Eastern Counties Company to refer the subjects in dispute to the adjustment of Mr. Lode and Mr. Stephan sou in conformity to the agreement, but the committeere gret to find that at the date of this report no answer to the pi op ridden has yet been reotived.

BLACKWALL RAILWAY. MEETING OF AGRICULTURISTS AT BUR TON-ON-TRENT-ADVICE TO YARBIERS. 011 Thursday evening an ibfluenlial body of agri culturists, to the number of 50, eseemhted to dinner at t h e Three Queue' Hotel, Bertomon-Trent. M P. B• 111. Ii q., 3d. P., was in the chair. T. Grahame*, E-q. (late M.P. for North D.abyetire), W. Peel, BA., H. Clay, Esq. (of Sud bury Ball), and many other agriculturists of influence, were present. The VICE PRESIDENT proposed "The Members for Derbyshire and Stalindshire "—a tout which meld not be regarded as political, as the members entertained dive:se I opinions. They must, however, tit rmit him to say, teat whatever party held the reins of govankent, et quired a 'Seed watchdog at its tail. (Coeere and laughter.) Mr. COLVILLE, K. I'., askaowledged the toast. T. HISSORNE, lisq , propose 1 the or a toast. He said : Headsmen nu chin maa Ma desired me to propose Pro- I *parity to Agriculture." (Cheers.) In ghetto; that toad I lied myself in diNculties on every side. In Li., first plats ~ I believe it's a rule at these meetings that we must not talk tb_ 'R ice: it's • rule moth oftener insisted at teen übe i reed. Now, I declare Ido not know what it mess,. (Laughter.) If I it means that I am not to say such a governor eat is bad, that we ought to substitute Sir Rob rt Peel for Lori John Russell, or Mr. Disraeli for Sir Robert Pest—that is polities, and might create a deal of acerbity. But it it means that we are nut to talk about oar social position—that if the shoe pinches we are not to say oh !"—(laughter) —why, then, from that rule I decidedly dement, and with all deference to the hon. president, it is a rule 1 intend to infringe in almost every sent :nee of these few which I rurpoae to address to you. (Cheers and laughter.) Well then, gentlemen, I am desired to propose " Prosperity to Agriculture." Agriculture is not prosperous. It Is not the first time that I have said so. I said so publicly—in print—is a way it is my habit of d log—in the most deter mined possible manner. (Hear, hear.) I repeat it no w, — agriculture is not prosperous. Ido not tome here presum ing to teach you how to term. lam not so preaumpteous es to think that I can teach you whose whole lives have beta spent in daily habits of farming. I have no doubt you know as well how to farm your own tarots as I can tall you ; and I can (um my own term as well as you eau tell me. And therefore I do not come here ta tell you that you can improve agricultural prospects by improved terming. But aftricuirese is not prosperous. There is one class of people who tell you that you are not pram porous—that you are a stupid set of felines, and that you might have doubled your produce. Others—certainly more moderate—will tell you that there is land out of cultivation, and that land in some parts of England is badly farmed, and is capable of producing much larger crops. Now, Ido not mean to say that in some instances the produce may not be doubled. Ido not mean to say that there are not badly cultivated,:larms, anti that considerable more produce may nut be realised. But I do not see the way pointed out by my hoc. friend (Idr. Base) from the daft collies which beset us simply by improved cultivation and double produce. Suppose the produce was doubled on two thirds of the land; toe consequence would be that far mers, instead of bruising 300 quarters of wiwat to Burma weskit to-day, would have brought 600 quarters. Do you suppose that would not have reduced prices in Borten market? (Hear, hoar.) Suppose, instead of bringing 300 cwt of cheese they bad brought 600 cwt., would not prices have bees reduced ? But my hon. friend says we must drive out the foreigner. Well, then, we must do that by making your price lower the& his. Do you thit.k he will not meet yeu limo' way I You caret incrsaae mouths as you ceu c ern. The questioo, then, is how tan yea produce corn cheater than my other country in the world ? I said tell you. I see no 11•1011 why corn and agricultural produce should not be pro mised as a +sap here, except for the burthens on land. Our etiolate may be inferior to some; but we have other edvant. sits over the foreigner, greater farilities at market, better roads, bet er implements, and so or.. Therefore, Ido not see why it should r.ot be grown as cheap here as in any other country except, as I have said, the burdens en land. Now what me those burdens ? I need nut ray anything about reat. You fir your own—at treat lem much ashamed of you it you don't (Laughter.) If you take a cow to the lair dote the seller or buyer ask the price ? The buyer Sus the price he will give for the cow, and if the sober wont take it he is not obliged to bays her. It rents are too high, it's the tanners own *dolts. (Cheers.)l 1 always tell them so. 1 will give you an instance ut what farmers do. A tenant of mine—sot • very small one either, for ha holds 600 acres of land came to me one day. He didn't take off his hat and say, " I beg your pent .n, sir," or anything of the sort. Ile said. " Mr. Chattorne, I can't pay this rent, and unless you'll take less I must leave the term." Well, it is not tiarttcularly plea sant, 1 admit, to lower one's income; but I thought this an iudt pendent tallow, and I was pleased with him. and I said I would take it into consideration. I dil not consider it ern- Umentally. (Cheers and laughter.) I want to get rid of sentiment out of agriculture as much as it is got rid of out of trade—(than)—beeause I am sure it will be as Medicaid in agricultural as is comments' transactions to get rid of it, and both parties will derive benefit. (Cheers.) Now treated this question exactly as! would the selling of a pig. Here is this man will give me 7s. 6d. • atone for my I pig; I know another man who will give me 7e. oi., but be wants credit, and payment is ratner uncertain ; so 1 think the best thing I can do is to bargain with this fellow at 7.e. 61., and I'll take the pries he offers me for the farm. (Cheers and laughter.) New what did this man do? Withia halt a year alter this transaction a farm adjoining mine dropped out of occupation. ; it was *either aa good • farm se mine, nor as conveMeat, nor were the buildings so good ; and yet this tenant took it for his eon at a higher price than he hail bee* pelts, for mine: (Laughter.) What • Sat that tenant must think me! (Laughter.) It is be cause people do such things as these that they pay more rest than they ought to pay. Dating referred to the land tax and puttlie expenditure, the speaker e tueluded by saying: advise you to eu on improving your farms to the utmost of y o ur power; but that is eot the only way in which agricul ture sentrally in this country is to be relieved. The only way is by our owa exertiocs to get • diminution of burdens, and partiouluiy to instruct your representative Mr. Colette tossup per& every manure for economy, whether it proceed from Joseph Hums or from any other person. (Cheers.) Several whir toasts were given, Mr. WORTHINGTON, in reply to one of them, said he was • tory, • radical tory, and he agreed with Mr. Oistiorne as to the necessity of cutting down expenditure. IRELAND. Bosun, Nov. Our accounts of the threatened Orange exposure are atilt eat a negative kind. The pamphlet has not yet made its appearance, but the Evening Packet mores ur, " on authority," that the de lay arises from " the necessity of adding an appendix to the volumi nous report prepared by the committee." The Packet adds : We have also authority tor announcing, and we do so with the utmost gratification, that the ru mours of ' compromise' at.d doctoring,' in referring to which we performed an imperative though a die a4m able day, are entirely without foundation. The Evening Herald, another Orange organ, repeats something to the same effect, but the public have had such " announcements " titre ad nauseam, and for some time have cared very little what the " rePort • may turn out to be.

On Wednesday last the prisoner was examined before the Rev. J. Pearson, at the magistrate's office at Brentwood, on some of the charger, when it appear, d he had beta in the habit of taking hones up to a repository in London, and Ours di.posing of them; and it was discovered that in order to disarm suspicion, and prevent his being stopped on the road, he adop ed a stratagem with which it may be useful to nuke officers generally acquainted. la proceeding to Loudon with the horse, he lly carried with hint • letter addressed to Mr. Dixon, the owner of the repository, and signed by some respectable per.on in the county, stating that the horse was sent to him for sale, and he was to return the money by the bear , r, which letter, when shown to any olden on the road, who happened ye stop him, would operate as • sort of passport, and enable him to ',nosed.

Bouts% at Leigh ; informa tion was given to Mr Low, who at once commenced a put suit, and in the course of the nest day travelled between sixty and seventy mils without obtaining any tidings of it ; but on returning to Rayleigh about 7 o'clsk, learned that Cris had returned from Wnitshapel, on Saturday evening, the 3rd instant, in a hay cart, b lunging to a person named Bartlett, which was going to Wicktord ; that he got down at Leind in about 3 o'clock on Banday morning. and took away with him tk' eartes's coat, which had been lent him on the way down ; and further, that in the tonne of the journey, in a conversation with the carter, he stated that he had taken up a hone to Dison's repository for Mr. Finch, at Rayleigh, and was going to take up another on Monday for the came person. Following up this information, Mr. Low traced Cris to Pi sea, and within a mile and a half of Mr. Bentall's, of Leigh. Suspicion was thus 1330 fit sled, and the nest morn ing the officer left Rocbford at 3 o'clock, taking the back roads leading to London ; at Bowers he traced a horse an sweriog the description of *seta's and a man riding it, trivial/ on a coat droller to that stolen ISOM Bartlett on the Saturday Might previous; he was also traced Mother parts of thawed. Having reached Whitethatiel, Mr. Lsw gave Taylor, be street keeper there, full partical ,n of the mare and of the suspected party, with directions for Taylor to be in attendance at Aldridge's repository, on the following more leg, whilst he himself returned to complete his inquiries for the purpose of ascertaining where Cris lived in London. While matters were in this state, on We ;nesday, the 13th mat., Low received information of isnot' er robbery—a cart colt, rising tho • years, had been stolen front Faa-hall, Bath Bendiest, the property of Mews anemia and Fulford.
