The line from Hamptad.bill to Cbaring.crose is to be wholly or, ai Colonel Yolland expremed it before the " underneath everything." The line from Len der Victoria-street, under the Thames Embank under Sew Cannon-street and Great Tower. 'oser•hill, is to be underground. So will also be m Finsbury-circus, under the Blackwell Railway, Loodon Docks, under the Thames, by way of the creel. to the south-eastern part of the metropolis ke given before the committee affords some of the difficulty of making lines in this way, to ould be well to point attention. ropolitan way was made through a quarter of ▪ : r equeozed than the peat thoroaghfares of the yet few persons, during the years it was in instruction, failed to experience the inconvenience nor which resulted from it Eminent authorities rat that could those annoyances and inoonve ie ken foreseen the construction of the hoe er have been sanctioned. Mr. Fowler, the en he Underground Railway, was examined before :onainittee u to these inconveniences. He &d -i there was great temporary inconvenient* in 1 during the construction of his works." Of MPS very much interested in proving that the inconvenience during the construction of works r would be at a minimum. It is worth while, o consider his answers. you ever practically tunnelled under a house orfering with the house! we did that in several cases. There in no diffl iug it. It is only a question whether it is more to do it or to pull down the huildiogs. fact that applications have been made to the su company for compensation for injury done to r to the lice of maw, by the vibration! since the railway was opened.

The passage of the UM= id is not, be affirms, a mourn of serious Moon houses constructed over the tunnel; but "it in whether it is better to bey the property and ✓. or to tunnel under it, when the works are in instruction." ply this to the line proposed to be coostractod ropoLtain District Railway : no difficulties of importance (says Mr. Fowler) e Monument and Blackfriars-bridge (i. e. under cau.street), and there are great facilities far line. But there are, no doubt, considerable dil a consequence of the nature of the prerty) insbury and the Monument; indee I have a importance to it, that I have had three dif surveyed and valued with the most minute care, labia me to ascertain which would be the but . From the Monument to the east side of Irene the property is of an important character, in my opinion, require to be dealt with in • saner. Some of the meet important buildinp, e, must be actually tunnelled n under, and the 'moied during the operations, and whatever nes:emery for that must be incurred. The pro some cases sufficiently important to require such haling with it. lay average are the rails ander the buildup t _'o feet. far do you %tartan with brio ssouts and other mle, the property would lure to be taken down aid that you would pus nods, loco° buildiop ing them down Those would be exceptiooal oases.

Isar the llosunient md all the churches. are the public buildings you refer to! esa buildings, Janke, sod so on. In that district Imost every room is a separate place of business, I be a serious thing interfering with such build s ; and it would be worth the while of the emu cues to execute the works, where practicable, curbing the buildings. the cannot be considered an agreeable prce citizens of London. It,. Fowler, it will be olds out no prospect of improving the streets is widening existing thoroughfares, or improving nhations.

The works at Westminster, rya Mr. Fowler, " must be , constructed during the period when parliament is not sitting." That is, during the winter months, the wont period of the year for wake of oenstrodion. The works will go within 100 feet of the Abbey ; but, " though the ground is very porous theta," Mr. Fowler is "quite sure there would be no danger of weakening the foundations." The engineer also repudiates the idea of all junctions with other stations. "All junctions should be avoided ;" they would only be inconveniences. Q. What is the difference of level between your line and the Cbarinrcroes line? A. I think 43 feet. A staircase would be made from the one to the other. Q. How many steps would be required to get up 40 feet A. About 70. A pleasant prospect for gouty members of parliament. Bur the joint committee has virtually decided that " all junctions should be avoided." RECEPTION OP OARIBALDL The Working Men's Demonstration Committee have issued the following address to the working men of London : Fellow Workmen, —ln a few days the soil of our native land will be trodden by one of the greatest, the noblest, and most se/i-sacriticing men of any age. General Garibaldi, the hero of Italy and the moldier of freedom, is on the eve of visiting this country. Yea, fellow•workmen, the most self denying patriot, the most daring and gallant of soldiers ; the man whose heroic deeds have excited the admiration of the civilised world, and struck tenor into the hearts of tyrants and their tools, and whose dirintereetednem and **lemon of purpose has been acknowledged even by his bitterest foes, is about to honour our country with his presence Let us, then, fellow-workmen, aoe and all, op-operate in giving to this truly great and noble citizen of the world a hearty English welcome ; one that, while it will he worthy of the mao, will, at the nuns time, reflect credit upon ourselves and our country. We desire that our demonstrations of welcome shall not be one of a party character, and we, therefore, invite our fellow workmen of all shades of opinion, irrespective of sect or party, to join with us in rendering • public homage to the purity of character of the Illustrious Italian. We ask you net to endorse by your presence every political or religious opinion entertained by Garibaldi, but simply to do honour to • man who has lived, fought, and bled, not for himself, but for his country and freedom. By the working classes espe cially Garibaldi ought always to be held in veueration,as the interests of that class have been his guiding star, even when be has attained • success, whose height and glory would have dazzled and corrupted • lets noble and disinterested nature. Our working brethren of Italy know this well; and hence the love, amounting almost to idolatry, they bear to the name of Garibaldi ; hence his power over the armee of his countrymen; • power which emperors and kings, and other common men, may envy without ob taining. On Garibaldi visiting London, we purpose to give him a public welcome and escort him to his place of temporary !sojourn by a proceseion, which will be followed by a public entertainment, or meeting, or both, as may hereafter be determined upon. We ask you, fellow-workman, to join us in this demonstration. Let meetings of all trades and friendly societies, or other organised bodies of working men, volunteer corps, ix., be at once convened, and let such meeting appoint representatives to the committal, to moist in carrying out ite object. The time is abort, and what is to be dote mast be done at cam. The sub-committee, with the treasurer and secretary, will sit daily at the oaks of the Trades' Newspaper, the Beehirt, 10, Bolt-court, Flest-stmet, from 10 a.m. until 10 in the evening, for the purpose a affording information and re. ceasing subscriptions for the " Demonstration and Testi monial Fund." The general committee will meet every Tuesday even ing at eight o'clock at the Whittington Club, Arundel street, Strand, to which »preventatives from any body of working meta are invited. The committee are prepared to co-operate with any other committee having ► similar object in view. A full programme of the preceediop will shortly be published.—By order of the committee, Gnaws POTTZE. Trwgxer. iiAlllll ELL, Hon. Secretary. 10, Holt.ooart, Fleet4treet, March 24. POLISH DEMONSTRATION ON BLACKHEATH. Yesterday afternoon an open air demonstration, wormed by the League for securing the National Inde pendence of Poland, was held on Blackheath, immediately opposite the lodge entrance of Greenwich-park. The meeting was attended by upwards of 5,000 persons, who ap peared to take much interest in the proceedings, and the utmost order prevailed. A large ',isogon served as • platform for We sens ; and the chair wee occupied by Mr. Edmond president of the League, who in an able address referred to the past history of Poland, and the wrongs to which she bad been subjected on the part of the despotic powers of Europe. It was unfortunate that the policy of England had invariably been to refuse the invita tion of France to act on behalf of Poland, and this noe -1 intervention policy on oar part had now arrived at such • pitch that it appeared our oldest and most faithful allies might be crushed by the despots of Europe without our active interference. He believed the Poles were yet in a oonditices to gain their independeme. The Poles had men—but they required arms to tight the battle of freedom ; and Englishmen might, by their sub scriptioes, render them essential aid in this regnant. Mr. 11. W. Marriner, of Erith, moved the first resolution, as follows :—" That the devoted and self-sacrificing heroism of the Poles in their past conflicts and present struggle for the recovery of the freedom and independence of their country entitles them to the earnest and active support of every free people, and that to allow them to draggle on =misted during another year against the atrocious war waged by Russia for their renewed subjugation, in defiance of the faith of treaties and of every princip le of justice and aatioeial right, will be • disgrace to France and Great Britain. an insult to humanity, and • scandal to christendoect."
