Count Goluchowski has placed his Sovereign in a false position by his precipitancy, and deserves a " wigging," which he is likely to get. All kinds of reports are in circulation relative to the Warsaw Congress, but the only thing positively , known here is that the Sovereigns and the Mini sters have repeatedly met in private conference. It is rumoured that Austria is trying to persuade Russia to place an army of 150,000 men on the Pruth, in order that things may remain quiet in the northern provinces of European Turkey and in Transylvania and Hungary. The Donau Zeitung tells us that the meeting of the Mon archs in Warsaw will afford an opportunity for the exchange of ideas relative to the restora tion of the peace of the world. "No one," con tinues the semi-official paper, " need fear that arrangements of an aggressive character will be made." In private letters from Warsaw it is stated that the Polish nobles and their ladies have quitted the city in order not to be obliged to witness the " fraternization" between the three Potentates. The Emperor Francis Joseph will be in Vienna again to-morrow. _ _ _ THE CONFERENCES AT jj; R SA TV. Ily Order. W. CA WKWELL, General Manager. &Won Station, October, ISBO.

Offices—No. 21, PA.RLIAMENT-STREET, S.W., London. JOSEPH STANSBURY, M.A., Hon. Sec. TILE DISTURBANCES IN PESTS. A letter, dated Vienna, Oct. 26, says—The fol owing details relative to disturbances which oc curred in Pesth on the evening of the 23d instant have been received here. On Monday the Muni cipal Council desired the inhabitants of the Hun garian capital to show their gratitude to the Emperor for having restored the Constitution by lighting up the windows of their houses. In the course of the morning of Tuesday it came to the knowledge of General von Benedek that a plan had been formed for creating disturbances if there should be an illumination, and he therefore re quested the municipal authorities to direct the pro prietors of the houses in Pesth not to put any lights into their windows. As the weather was remark ably fine in the evening of Tuesday, the streets were unusually full of people, but there was no symptoms of an intention to disturb the peace of the city until towards 8 o'clock, when a crowd of young fellows marched up the Waizner-Gasse (the principal street), whistling and hooting as they went. In the first floor of the King of Hungary Hotel there was an exhibition of stereoscopic pic tures, and behind a transparency, which was in one of the windows, was a bright light. As soon as they caught sight of this the young men began to whoop like so many wild Indians, and to throw small copper coins at the window. While so occu pied strong patrols made their appearance, and, without stopping to summon the people to disperse, they levelled their bayonets and made a violent rush forwards. About 50 civilians were more or less seriously wounded, and one officer and three or four privates slightly injured. While the conflict was going on in front of the "King of Hungary" there was a second collision between the troops and the people. The latter threw stones into the windows of General Rummerskirch, who resides on the new market-place, and while doing sothey were attacked in flank and rear by detachments of cavalry and infantry. The troops with bayonets levelled, also forced their way into the " Zrinyi" coffee and beer house, and drove the persons assembled there into the street. It is related that General Neuwirth, the commander of the city, and eight or ten officers, made use of their swords against the unarmed mob, but the report requires confirmation. A man named Rapecz, who was run through the body, is already dead, and 12 persons, who were severely wounded, lvin 2. in the hospital of St us. A few persons were arrestea, out We ';h oo ps appeareu LU be more desirous to inflict punishment than to make prisoners." It does rot admit of a doubt that the mob behaved badly, but it is equally certain that the troops behaved worse. The Wiener Zeitung of to-day contains an official article, in hick it is said that there is only an " apparent connexion" between the deplorable occurrences in Pesth and the Imperial ordinances of the 20th inst., and the Buda-Pesth Zeitung tells the very same tale; but it is known that in general the Hunga rians are dissatisfied with the arrangements which have been made for them. The assurance has to day been given me that the most influential leaders of the different parties have promised their support to Government, but it remains to be seen whether such is really the case. If Baron Eotvos and M. von Deak take office in Hungary, their doing so will be a proof that the Liberals are not dissatisfied with the Imperial ordinances; but if they keep aloof it will be clear that the Government has no adherents in Hungary but a few high nobles. The Cardinal-Primate of Hungary bas asked the Arch bishop of Erlau to become a member of the " Pri matial Congress" which is about to assemble, but it is not certain that M. von Bartakovics, who is a very warm patriot, will consent to do so. It is now very difficult to get in the taxes in Hungary, and in some places notice has been given that the goods of the persons who are in arrear will be taken in execution if the sums owing to the State are not paid within a given time. Baron Kempelen, the editor of the Szegedin Ifirado, who was sent to the fortress of Josephstadt because the Austrian Minister of Police feared he might do mischief, has been permitted to return to his home. The impression produced by the Provincial Statute for Styria has been exceedingly un favourable here. The Viennese say that the thing is a " stupidity," and after having read a summary of its contents you may, perhaps, be of opinion that they are not far wrong. As has already been said, the Estates are to be composed of six priests, 12 nobles, 12 representatives of cities, and the same number of representatives of the rural communes. The University of Gratz will not be represented at ail. The members of the Provincial Diet are to be elected for six years, and those who, being of noble birth, are in possession of a landtafliches estate, will enjoy the privilege of wearing " tire ancient uniform of the Estates." The Captain of the Pro vince (Landeshauptmann) is to preside at the Diet, which can be dissolved at pleasure by the Sove reign. The members of the 'Diet have to vow to be loyal and obedient to the Emperor. A managing committee is to be formed of members of the Diet, who are to be chosen by that body. The Diet has the right to look after and to manage the affairs of the province, and to send through the Stadtholder, petitions to the Emperor. In accordance with the Patent of March 5, the members of the Diet have to elect from among themselves the persons who are to be " proposed" to the Emperor as members of the Reichsrath. The sphere of action of the Pro vincial Diets is very confined, as all matters which concern the Empire at large will be discussed by the Reichsrath. "If the Captain of the Province is of opinion that any resolution taken or order given by the Diet could be prejudicial to the wel fare of the public, he has a right to prevent its being carried out." One Diet is not allowed to communicate with another. No Diet has a right to issue proclamations, to receive deputations, or to send deputations to the Emperor, unless it has ap plied for and received permission to do so. The members of the Styrian Diet will not be elected by all the inhabitants of the province, • but by the four Estates. Thus priests will be elected by priests, nobles by nobles, the representatives of the cities by the respective municipal councils, and the represen tatives of the•rural districts by the communes. The Diets will have to elect, three times as many persons as they have a right to send to the Reichsrath, as the " terna" system will be upheld. The meaning of the expression is, that the Sovereign chooses one out of every three persons proposed to him. The Viennese flattered themselves that the hundred " elected" members would play a prominent part in the Reichsrath, but since the publication of the statute for Styria they appear to have lost all hope. Sonic students at the Vienna University proposed to their comrades to "get up" a torch procession, and to go in corpore to receive the Emperor on his return from Warsaw, but the proposal was not favourably . received. The young men first men tioned, most of whom belong to families of rank, then went to Count Goluchowski to inquire whe- ther the Emperor would object to the students in the University walking in procession wah torches in their hands; and the Count, in the belief that the persons who had called onhim were empowered to speak for their comrades as well as for them selves, replied that he would inquire by telegraph. He did so, and, as the reply received from Wareaw was favourable, it was announced on the so-called , AFFAIRS OF TURKEY. A letter from Constantinople, dated October 17, says :—Th.e return of Mehemet Kiprisli Pasha to . Constantinople has not yet led to any material changes in the Administration. Asli Pasha, who acted as the Grand Vizier's Caimacam during his absence, has resumed his funct;ons of President of the council of the Tanzimat. He also undertakes the office of Act;ng Minister for Foreign Affairs until Fuad Pasha's return, in lieu of Savfet Effendi. So far as one is enabled to judge from the very limited expression of public opinion which obtains in this country, all hopes are centred in the pro jects of reform which it is believed the Grand Vizier will now inaugurate. Those hopes are, I fear, doomed to disappointment ; for, giving Mehemet Kiprisli Pasha credit for every good in tention, I do not see how he can succeed in his efforts to place the administration of affairs on a more satisfactory basis. Almost without exception, his colleagues are is political opponents; and many of them are even now, I have reason to believe, plotting his downfal. Foremost among his enemies is Riza Pasha, the Minister for War, and favourite of the Sultan ; his Majesty, too, is supposed to look with bat little real affection upon the onlyman who enjoys the confidence of the nation, and whose popularity might otherwise suffice to appease a gathering storm, fraught with no small danger to the throne. To make matters worse the whole weight of French and Russian influence is thrown into the scale against the Vizier. Sir Henry Bulwer will, I believe, afford him some support ; but it remains to be seen how far this will avail against the many adverse influences. Both M. de Lavalette and Prince Labanoff pro test against the decision by virtue of which Mehe met Kiprisli Pasha was recalled. They maintain that his mission has been a failure in the provinces which he has visited; and yet, with singular incon sistency, demand that his tour of inspection shall be extended to Bosnia and the Hersegovina. It is easy to listen with some degree of equanimity to complaints of oppression of her subjects preferred against the Porte by a French Ambassador ; but I confess to losing all patience when similar charges emanate from the mouthpiece of such a Government as that of Russia. Would even Prince Labanoff venture to say that the condition of the rayah is not immeasurably preferable to that of the Russian serf ? Nevertheless, if I be not mistaken, the European Powers will very shortly hear a reiteration of Prince Gortschakoff's complaints and demands against the Turkish Government. He in his ortho doxy is the man without sin who may cast the first stone. • I have, on more than one occasion, alluded to a practice, by which numbers of rayahs, after a short absence from this country, return metamorphosed ur auLLIV inner lOrelg. CitAatc. It was necessary to put an immediate and effective stop to these proceedings, and the Porte has been to blame for allowing the abuse to pass so long unchal lenged. I think, notwithstanding, that Turkish Ministers have been ill advised in issuing the circu lar sent to all the Legations here, and a translation of which was published in the Mites of the 3d inst. That circular could not but give great offence to the Russian Government, at a time when all unneces sary cause of offence should have been sedulously avoided. It is, however, open to graver objections. In the first place, it appears to me to savour of harshness to order all " these newly protected per sons" to sell their property and to leave the coun try with their wives and children. Moreover, all the blame is thus cast upon the shoulders of the recalcitrant rayahs, and none upon the unoffend;ng Governments. In the second, to decide that " these newly protected persons shall be subjected to the laws of the Ottoman Government for all affairs previous to the epoch of their change of na tionality," is, in some measure, to admit the validity of their transformation. Surely, the alter native allowed by the circular itself would have sufficed, without any intimation at all to the Lega tions. A simple instruction to the Governors of pro vinces to treat all such newly protected persons as subjects of the Porte, and not to permit the inter ference of any Consul in their behalf, would have been a more quiet and equally efficacious remedy. However, the abuse, which had assumed serious proportions, will probably be carried no further, for I am told that the Russian Minister has entirely failed to convince M. de Lavalette of the propriety of insisting upon the recall of the offending circular. A letter from a person necessarily well informed lias just reachell me from Syria. I will not trespass upon the dominion of your correspondent there by giving any detail of the operations against the Druses. 1 may, however, perhaps be permitted to say that the General commanding the French troops appears to have received instructions not quite in consonance with the protocols signed in Paris. By manifesting a disposition to adopt an independent line of action he has caused Fuad Pasha some em barrassment. Great complaints, too, are made of the atrocities committed by the Christians, who follow his march, eager to take vengeance upon their enemies now that they fancy they may do so with impunity. On the Ist inst. the French camp was at the bridge on the River Littany, on the road to Damascus by Djob-Jenin and Rasheya. Fuad Pasha had gone to Muktera. On Wednesday morning last Prince Couza left Constantinople for Bucharest. During his stay here several Poles were arrested on a charge of con spiring to assassinate him. I cannot, however, learn that there is any evidence to support the accusation. The origin of the fire which I mentioned in my last letter, and which broke out in one of the centre portions of the second bridge across the Golden Horn, has not been ascertained. The story told by the Turkish authorities is that some soldiers passed over the bridge just before the occurrence; that some of them were smoking in opposition to express regulations to the contrary ; and that it is supposed the end of a cigarette, thrown on the bridge, set fire to it. Another version is to the effect that the bridge in question having been recently opened to the public free of charge, the farmers of the re venue of one of the other bridges caused it to be burnt. I believe, however, there is not the slightest foundation for the rumour. A third, and not the least current report is, that the bridge was fired by persons engaged in a conspiracy against the Go vernment. The fleet and a considerable portion of the town were to have been destroyed, and the con fusion would have enabled those engaged in the plot to take their. measures. For this, too, I should be sctrry to vouch. One thing, however, appears certain ; had not the wind first changed, and then fallen entirely; the fleet must have been destroyed. The election of the new Greek Patriarch took place, after much violent discussion, on Tuesday last. The choice fell upon Monsignore Joaktnos, Archbishop of Cyzicus.

In that ancient city which stands ike a monu ment over the ruins of Polish indepe dente have just met the three lineal representative of the three Sovereigns who ninety years ago co enced th e work of extinction and pa rtition whicl it has bee n reserved to our own days to see fully co summated. Austria. Prussia, and Russia have met in beir second triumvirate, a conjuncture of ill o en to the liberties of Europe, as when of old i proclaimed wrath "to Poland and to man." But e spoil that they divided among theni has not hriven with them. They meet, not, as of old, to 'plot the ruin of their neighbours, and to divide among themselves that which is not their own. They meet in terror and dismay—with discontent at the present and sinister forebodings for the future. The pillars on which they believe their power immutably based are cracking and tottering beneath them. A new spirit has arisen in Europe, no longer the frantic spirit of innovation which burst forth so vehe mently in 1793 and 1848—the easiest antagonist with which an absolute Prince can have to cope, the most suicidal of all manias, which, if it suxeeds in overthrowing despotism, is sure to lay a broad foundation for a worse tyranny in its stead. The spirit of the present day is more moderate, more rational, and therefore to those who rest their claims neither on reason nor moderation more truly for midable. The spirit of modern Europe spurns at theocracy, whether in the person of a priest who has made himself into a temporal monarch, like the Pope, or of a temporal monarch who has made him self' into the head of a religious sect, like the Czar of Russia. It demands equal rights and equal laws, freedom of commerce, the abolition of invidious and exclusive privileges, and a voice tor the people in the affairs of the liaTernmeut under which they live and suffer. These things must sound to the ears of men swathed in the purple, and taught to lisp in the ac cents of absolute dominion and Divine right strange and horrible indeed, and we cannot wonder that the Sovereigns of Eastern Europe have met together to take counsel how this plague may be stayed and matters retained a little longer in their original happy state. But the Council, if we have been cor rectly informed, has ended in nothing. It has been a solemn display before the eyes of Europe of anger and impotence, of alarm at approaching danger, and of feebleness which has no power to avert it. The interview has, if we mistake not, revealed to each of the triumvirate the secret of his own and of his associates' weakness. But it has done something more. It has taught these Empe rors and Princes how little real harmony there is in their views ; how little they possess the will, even if they possessed the power, of united action. The solemn hunting which was to conclude the delibera tions of these mighty personages has been ad journed, ostensibly on account of the illness of the Empress Dowager of Russia, but really, webelieve, because the terms on which the Emperors met each other were such as to render a protracted in tercourse extremely undesirable. They are gone back, each to his own home, with little contentment with themselves or each other, and with, we sus pect, the firm conviction that those principles of non-intervention which they so cordially detest are forcibly imposed upon them alike by their weak ness and their disunion. The Emperor of Russia must be well aware that he has enough on his hands in the interior of his country without plunging into the stormy waters of Italian politics, He is standing face to face with a whole servile population, which he has taught to know and demand its rights without having devised any means of conceding them. Were he as powerful as the greatest of his ancestors, he might tremble before the domestic troubles by which he is sur rounded, and which threaten not only the subver sion of government, but the destruction of society itself. The southern half of his dominions is deso- ated by the war which the rashness of his father provoked, his army is much reduced in numbers, and even those numbers it is difficult to support. The credit of the Government is gone, and it is next to impossible for it to borrow even on the most exorbitant terms. Russia can recall her Minister from Turin, can advise the Pope to stand firm, can frame protests on behalf of that martyred saint the King of Naples, but the days when Suwarrow crossed the Alps to reconquer Italy from Napoleon are passed, not to return. Russia cannot spare her army, and, if she could, she has not the money re quired to put it in motion. The Czar may pray against, but he cannot fight against, the new Italian kingdom. Prussia must. at length be thoroughly convinced of that of which she ought to have been convinced long ago—that the arts of a truckling and ambigu• ous policy are unsuited to the urgency of the pre sent time. She has tried to persuade Russia and England, the two poles of the political world, that she is entirely in accord with both. After the failure of the conference at Warsaw, she has nothing for it but to relapse into that semi-consti tutionalism from which for a moment she seemed to wish to emancipate herself. But we should imagine that no one has returned from this abor tive meeting so utterly discontented as the Em peror of Austria. His feelings and prejudices have been as much outraged as those of his neighbours, but with him the evil does not stop there. The emancipation of Italy is to him something more than a speculative injury. It commenced by robbing him of Lombardy, and it will assuredly not terminate without depriving him of Venetia. He has played the last card in his hand by the grant of a Constitution to his discontented provinces The Constitution is scanned in a narrow and dis trustful spirit, and, as far as we can judge, has done nothing towards allaying existing discontent. His troops are collected in immense masses behind the fortresses of Venetia ; his resources are exhausted by the effort, and yet he dare not take the decisive step for which he has made every preparation. He is not sure of the provinces he leaves behind—he is not confident against the enemy whom he may have to meet in front. Something is apprehended from Hungary this winter, something the proba bility of which the Emperor can scarcely admit to himself. If Russia were only able and willing to give the same assistance in case of need as she did in 1849—but that is hardly to be thought ef. Whatever be the extent of the reconciliation of which so much has been made, it cannot give Russia the means, even if she had the will, for a second crusade against the liberties of Hungary. Then there is the question of finance, or rather the certainty of almost immediate bankruptcy. Nor is this all. The Emperor of the French adds a bat talion to every regiment, pours his troops into the Romagna, and, while ho recall his Minister from Turin, secretly approves and stimulates the very policy which he disavows. As far as the letter of treaties is concerned, Austria might invade Modena, Parma, Tuscany, the States of the Church, or t Naples, without giving Franc e a c ause of war. But France has already shown how easy it is would to be a it make a castes belli when she wants it, and very dangerous confidence which should Emperor to violate the principle ofenmo induce the n- tiintervenon phasis in the recently laid down with so much 7titionna.

[A TIVERT ISEMENT.J—Holloway's Ointment and Pills. — Experience Teacheth Wisdom.—The common consent of mankind has awarded to Holloway's remedies the palm for curing most complaints whether external or internal. During the past quarter of a century thousands have borne willing testimony to their efficiency in alleviating the suffer ings of mankind, and in expelling from the human body the first cause of disease. No other means can extract from the blood and solids any existing impurities with the same unerring certainty as Holloway's preparations, which rapidly filter out all morbid matters.

Lof the session. He expressed approval of the bill a for ilfeventing adulteration, for opening endowed schools to dis senters, and for the managgment of 'endowed chari ties. Sir W. Atherton next explained, by re fer ence to dates and facts, how the bills for the refo rm of the bankruptcy laws and for the consolidation of the statutes had failed. He then referred to other law bills that had passed—the mills for reform of the Court of Chancery, for reform' of the Divorce Court, and for reform of the Ece losiastical Court. The French Treaty had been sanet'ioned and the national defences improved. New laws for the government of the navy and for the ,a tvalgarnation of the Indian armies had also been sed.

Besides these bills, in themselves proofs that Parliament had not been very idle, t. sir W. Atherton spoke of' the subjects discusser 1 , church. rates, the Maynooth grant, the ballot, whiel i he advocated, and the paper duty. On this last point he said :—The House of Lords had the , power to refuse its assent to any and every mca sure coming from the House of Commons ; the Sovereign could refuse assent to any and every measure coming from the Lords and Commons; but if they were to do so, though acting f n accordance with the letter of the law, there would be such a departure from its spirit as to throw the state into a condition of anarchy and re volution. (Hear, and applause.) However, the Lords had frustrated by their unconstitutional rejection of the bill for the abolition of the papee duty, a part of the Chancellor of the Exchequer's budget which had been looked forw ard to with great interest. He believed there was no reas on to apprehend a repetition of such a course -sui as it must be—on the part of the House of Lords. (Hear, hear.) Now, a word about the Reform Bill- In his opinion that bill was a good bill, and if adopted by Parliament, it probably—at all events for some time to come—would have given satisfac tion to itic ..u.try. But how had it turned out ? The bill failed to pass the Rouse of Commons, and. he would explain how that occurred. The opposi tion—that was to say the supporters of the late Government—had committed themselves to the principles of Parliamentary Reform; and it would have been too bad—a thing that they could hardly well do with regard to their own Parliamentary reputation—their standing before the country—to oppose the introduction of such a bill. The second. reading was consequently allowed to pass without opposition ; but, upon the motion of going into committee, certain tactics of delay were resorted to, which made it perfectly hopeless to carry the mea sure. Sir W. Atherton next briefly referred to the Chinese war, and then to the Italian question, and said her Majesty's Government had scrupulously adhered to the determination expressed in the Queen's Speech, at the opening of Parliament, not to interfere with other countries respecting the form of government which they might choose to select. The people of this country had their sympathies, and he believed the vast majority of them were in favour of Italian liberation. (Loud applause.) A. vote of thanks to the Solicitor-General was then moved, and carried unanimously. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE, GREAT INDIAN PENINSULAR. The directors of this company state in their* re port that satisfactory progress in the prosecution of the company's enterprise was effected during the half-year ending the 30th of June last. At the be ginning of the half-year 245 miles of railway were open for traffic. This length of line was increased in the course of the half-year to 2971 miles by the opening of the following sections, viz. :—On the 2d of January, 1860, Barsee-road to Mohol, 281 miles ; on the 2d of February, 1860, Wa,ssind to Shapoor, 31 miles; and on the 6th of June, 1860, Mohol to Sholapore, 20+ miles; total, 52,!- ; Of the 297+ miles of railway open, 92+ miles are in the Concan, and 205+ in the Deccan. The Deccan portion is entirely on the Southern line, and is' separated from the Concan portion by the break at the Bhore Ghat, across which steep ascent of eight miles the whole of the traffic has to be transported by carts and pack bullocks. By the revenue state ment it will be seen that in the half-year the company realised from all sources of traffic the sum of £101,250, by an expenditure of £60,091, which leaves the sum of £41,159 at the credit of net reve nue account. This sum, added to the previous net earnings, raises the amount which the compaor havo to place against the advances made by Govern ment as interest upon paid-up capital to £256,160. The amount of those advances to June 30, 1860, was £1,034,431. On comparing the receipts, on an average of 279 miles, during the past half-year, with those on an average of 1941 miles in the corre sponding half of 1859. it appears that the receipts for passengers amounted to £40,041, againsti.:32,369; for merchandise, £53,352, against £48,607; total receipts, £101,250, against £87,607. The average receipts per mile were £363, against £450. The total expenditure was £60,091, against £39,091, or £215 per mile against £2Ol per mile; and the net profit £41,159, or £l4B per mile, against £48,515, or £249 per mile in the corresponding period of 1859. The receipts from the carriage of permanent way mate rials were 9 per cent. of the gross receipts, against 221 per cent. in the corresponding half of 1859. The last opening of 201 miles was made in the final month of the half-year, after the close of the trad ing season. The traffic of the last half-year was also affected very injuriously by the severe visi tations of cholera throughout the territory served by the railway; and, owing to the depressed con dition of the Bombay cotton-market, the traffic in the article of cotton fell off very considerably towards the end of the half-year, the merchants in Barsee and other places preferring to store their cotton rather than to send it down to Bombay for shipment. Considering these points, and bearing in mind the very peculiar position of the opened lines in being separated into two sections by the long break at the Bhore Liu t the directors regard the traffic already ob tained for the railway as highly e ncouragit op ' en permanent way, works, and stations of t line, have been maintained in good order.md!ileri.nghhee half-year, at a cost of 61.-d. per t h ra i rolling stock has also been thorc.mg y in was at the end of the half-year in a y upheld, and hl efficient state.

These have been the un f or tunate death , i n November, of Mr. Solomon T r edwell, the contractor, and two outbreaks of cholera among the people employed upon the works--th© first in January along the lower seven miles of the incline, when the labourers speedily dispersed, so that the number of hands was re duced in a fortnight from 10,000 to only 1,000 ; and the next in April, over the whole length of the incline, at which time several European agents and inspectors were cut off by the disease. These were serious causes of interruption ; butthe direc tors hope they will occasion no delay in the com pletion of this important work. Upon the 22+ miles of the north-east division of the Concan line from Shapoor to Kassarah, at the foot of the Thull Ghat incline, the works were, at the date of the chief resident engineer's report, finished with the exception of a few cuttings through basalt of the hardest description. That portion of the railway is to be completed in December next. It is also ex pected that at the same date 32 miles of the line from Egutpoora, at the summit of the Thull Ghat incline, to Nassick, will be opened, and that a fur ther section of 61 miles from Nassick to Nandgaon will be completed in the course of next spring. Satisfactory progress is being made on the other less advanced portions of the railway under con struction, with the exception of those comprised in Messrs. Duckett and Stead's contracts, in respect to which the board are taking active measures for tb° protection of the company's interests.
