DIRECT COMMUNICATION WITH EXISTING RAIL WAYS, thereby securing to Merchants and Shippers the direct conveyance of imports and exports to and from any part of Great Britain without the delay and expense Of PLANS cartage, wharfage, and li g ht erage in transit AND ESTIMATES of the whole undertaking have been carefully prepared, and have been investigated by a Committee appointed for that purpose. The Reports of the Engineers show a sum of £2,000,000 will be sufficient to carry out the undertaking in its integrity, leaving an ample margin for the purchase of the properties ,• and the Engineers have named to the Directors eminent Contrac tors, who are willing to take and guarantee the execution of all the 'works within the estimates. It is intended, however,' to construct the works at Northfleet by gradual operations, according, to the requirements of Commerce, and it is not expected that more than £1,250,000 will be called up within the first eighteen months ; no call to ex ceed £2 10s. per share. IMMEDIATE REVENUE. —An unusual feature in this en terprise is that an immediate revenue will accrue to the Company from London usiness carried on at the Quays and Warehouses in , and the operations of the exist ing Dry Dock and Engineering Plant and Machinery at Northfieet as well as from the sale of chalk and flints, which will enable the Company, during the construction of the works, to declare a dividend upon the Calls as paid up. PROSPECTIVE REVENUE.— advantages to be derived from the several objects which the undertaking comprehends, and the comparatively small outlay required, lead the Directors to expect, under a system of low charges, returns of no ordinary profit. In the event of the Directors not deeming it advisable to pro ceed, the deposit will be returned to the Shareholders, less the Preliminary Expenses, which will not under any circumstances exceed Five Shillings per Share.

NATIONAL EDUCATION IN IRELAND.-0126,345 is the net tot a l amoun t ex pended on agriculture out o f th e public grants made to the Commissioners of National Ed uca tion in Ireland from the introduction of agricultural instruc tion up to the end of 1857. This sum includes the net total expenditure from the year 1837-38 to the 31st of December, 1857, under the heads of building, furnishing, and repairing of all Model Agricultural Schools under the management of the commissioners, the maintenance of resident agul to indus tural pupils, salaries of agricultural teachers, expense con nectedil cl a wi theth: uj working ties t of farm s, o t r h k e hou se and the total disbursements to model and ordinary agricul tural schools under local management, as well a s th e cos t o f inspection. The total value of all the a , grieultural property held by the commissioners on the 31st of December, 1857, was as follows—viz., capitalised interest in land, £9,341; live stock, £4,179 ; crops, D,594; implements and machi nery, £7,397; and value of buildings, £58,434. The soundings, as obtained by Capt. Pullen, were as follows :—From Aden to Maculla, from 20 to 742 fathoms ; from Maculla to Kooria Mooria, from 100 to 1,150; from Kooria Mooria to Ras-el-Had, from 21 to 897 ; from Ras el-Had to Kurrachee, from 21 to 2,020 fathoms. Except between Hallania and Ras-el•Had, where it is rocky, the entire bottom consists of mud and sand, and though the result as above given might at first sight lead one to sup pose great inequalities in the sea bed, yet I believe nothing more formidable than undulations will obstruct the successful submergence of the cable throughout the whole line. The Cyclops is at present refitting at Bombay, but will be here again before the setting in of the south-west monsoon, to accompany the Imperador and Imperatrix, and to superintend the laying of the cable between Suez and Aden. The Chesapeake, bearing Commodore Edgell's pennant, arrived here on the 6th, and left again for Trincomalee on the 14th inst. A few of the crew were attacked with cholera while in the harbour, and Corporal Harman, who was left behind in hos pital, died the day before yesterday. lam happy to report that all were well on board when the frigate sailed. The Duchayla also, with 250 French artillery on board, arrived here on the 11th from Suez and Jiddah, and left again for Cochin China on the 14th inst. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. RAILWAY COMPETITION. Much as this country has been shamed by its railway management, the crowning point of ab surdity and disgrace has only just been reached. When the Great Northern, last year, in the ss. scheme to Manchester and back, started their imi tation of the reckless and insolvent coach proprie tors of a former generation, they had at least a pro fessed object—namely, to wrest a certain amount of permanent traffic from a rival, and also to com pel submission to a particular view of some disputed agreements, and in all such contests hitherto an element of this kind has existed. A fight avowedly for no other p ur p ose th an to enjoy the sport of mutual degradation and damage remained to be witnessed. The Brighton and South-Western com panies are now exhibiting themselves in this exer cise, and, if there is no other satisfaction the public can hope to get from it, there is at least the know ledge that we have at length seen the final depth into which English railway boards can plunge. Three shillings and sixpence to the Isle of Wight and back is the charge for passengers, placarded by each company, and, with regard to freight, it is understood the contest is so keen that consignors by a little management may virtually have it carried for nothing. But the contest is for the amusement of the directors alone, and can have no other result except such as may be manifested hereafter by a mutual reduction of dividends, and by appeals to Parliament, covert or otherwise, to tax the public for their present transitory enjoyment of cheap trips by a permanent doubling of fares. Even if one company could actually reduce the other to bank ruptcy no end would be answered. The Brigh ton charge the South Western with breach of faith in taking up the new line to Ports mouth ; but the merits of that question are before Parliament, and cannot be affected in the slightest degree by anything now going on. Again, there can be no question of a permanent wresting of traffic by the one company from the other. The distance to Portsmouth by the Brighton line is 95 miles, while by the South-Western new line it is only 74. Under no conceivable circum• stances, therefore, can the Brighton, by any com petition, recover the ground or prevent the South- Western from enjoying it. At least this is the view as far as the history of the affair is generally to erally w k i n p o e m, and if either co m p an y can urg e anything the opprobrium they seem to deserve it is open for them to do so. Meanwhile it is asked, what is the Railway Association, that was so recently formed to prevent these scandals, doing in th e matter No one expected much f rom t such a tribunal, and it appears now to have shown its perfect helplessness. Stronger authority is required. It would be hard, however, to sugg es t h ow i t could be created. There was a para grap h i n the papers mass d of l stating th gh a ,a t do a s ostensibly Nfy' for hr g a teh b a o pt n o d s pvl e , a re w et i , r t ba h ui n a t e n' u o yl f din g it e gh t hteistnebg best t u o at hope ol people e b t o soe in terferedastation e policymwcYii early u dt s h pt e w l r ta e i the intention Why where morning, should pugilists th n ho i with The fight was to be for the championship. The men were to beat and disfigure each other voluntarily, and would be animated by the ambition of conquest. Moreover, no innocent individuals would be robbed in order to pay for the sport, since the damage would be limited to their own morals and persons. If there is no power to step in when the Chairman and Directors of undertakings repre senting seventeen millions of capital and the inte rests of hundreds of private families, as well as those of the community at large, choose to indulge in a battle, the more demoralising because it is merely for the pleasure of wanton blows, triumph on either side being out of the question, and to present us in the eyes of foreigners as a nation whose most prominent commercial f unc tionaries have no aptitudes that c a n k ee p th em within th e limits even of con ven ti ona l goo d behaviour, ewn a we need not be so ext reme ly p ar ti cu lar tohun t d j few ignorant creatur es who in a impulses,mueh less in uri and of ous manner act upon sim ilar whom, perhaps, —Times. many have never been taught to direct their energies into any respecta b le channel.

A letter from- Aden, dated March 19th, sass You will be glad to hear that the trip of the Cyclops along the south-east coast of Arabia has been successful. The Nakeeb at Maculla received Captain Pullen in the most friendly manner, and assured Mr. •li. Gisborne that, as the Queen of England and himself were one, he might erect a telegraph station wherever he pleased within his territory. This was said in reply to the question about payment, and reminds one of Arab dealings as far back as patriachal times ; and I doubt not that the result will be the same in both cases. The Hittites insisted upon giving Abraham the land he asked for; but the patriarch knew what they really meant and continued to press for a definite settlement. Then said Ephron unto Abraham :- 6 My lord, hearken unto me. The land is worth 400 shekels of silver" —a good round price, we may be assured; nevertheless, added the chief, "What is that betwixt me and thee ?" However, I never had any misgivings about Maculla, and as a spot has been selected for the landing of the wire not far from the town, we may consider that point as satisfactorily settled. What the company may have to pay for the Nakeeb's aid and protection may give rise to a long interlocution, wherein both parties, while striving to overreach each the other, will disclaim all self-interest; but the, issue will be satisfactory to all concerned. At the Kooria Mooria Islands , the same favour able result has attended Captain Pullen's survey. As I had anticipated, Hallania is the island selected for a station, and a safe spot in the little harbour fixed upon for the landing of the cable. Among the 50 wretched inhabitants, who are for the most part Troglodites f ate two brothers who enjoy the privilege of b.arAing the British flag, ad of representing the British Crown, at a salary of nine dollars per annum. The commission to this effect was given them in 1854 b y C ap t . F remantle , of her Majesty's ship Jun o , an d i s now worn, rolled up as an amulet in a leather case, by our represen. tatives at Hallania. There are two wells on the island, and from one no less than 7,000 gallons of very drinkable water are drawn every day to supply the shipping which are taking in guano at Jibli. Native craft trading • along the coast frequently touch at Hallania for the same purpose, and I am glad to find that my former report upon the island is confirmed in other respects. The expedition were able to procure sheep and goats from the island, the climate is said to be very healthy, and with a little trouble the soil in the valleys may be brought under cultivation. The islanders professed no fear of invasion from the tribes on the main land, but such security is attributable only to the presence of so many British ships at Jibli. As I said before, it will be very desirable that the sta tion here should be fortified, or a small vessel of war kept permanently at the islands. From Kooria Mooria the Cyclops proceeded to wards Rasel-Had, but a heavy sea off the Cape pre vented Capt. Pullen from landing. Two attempts, however, were made to obtain soundings near the coast, but the result was unsatisfactory. I believe the water near the land is too shallow, and, in other re spects, the place is considered undesirable. The large island of Museira has been suggested as a substitute, but the natives there are wreckers, and the most villanous set on the whole coast. I believe Capt. Pullen rather inclines to the idea of taking the cable direct from Hallania to Kurrachee, but buoy ing at the outset off Ras-el-Had, in order that some third station may be selected should the distance prove too long. At Kurrachee the necessary- preliminaries have been settl e d. Th e ca bl e i s to be brought in east of the lighthouse, and must be laid several miles over land to reach the town. The company must build a suitable office, none being available for the purpose at present. the uses her luld iseS was on- n, of
