The dwarfs are three in number, two males and a emote (brothers and sister) ; they are fully equipped in the High laml garb, and perform a series of national, martial, and festive dances. The two males, who are remarkably active, excel in the celebrated Me Coullam, or Sword Dance ; and so extraordinary is the muscular development of the eldest that he can with ease carry two 561 h. weights about the room. He and his brother exhibit all the positions of the broadside exercise with a precision that would do honour to the first school of fence. And in addition to their other accomplishments, they, in conjunction with their sister, sing the beautiful airs of their native glens with exquisite taste and feeling. As Mr. Mackenzie. who has these singular creatures under his Protection, can (in consequence of his other engagements) remain but a short time in town, the admirers of the wonderfhl in nature are requested to pay an early visit.

LONDON, SATURDAY , _ , ,_ ENING __ .., IN WARWICKSHIRE THE PET FREEHOLD ESTATE OF THE COUNTY, WITH THE MANOR AND ITS EXTENSIVE RIGHTS, THE ENTIRE HAMLET OF WILLENHALL, A RESIDENCE IN THE ELIZABETHAN STYLE ; FIVE SUPERIOR FARMS, 750 ACRES, WITH A TENANTRY QUITE UNEXCEPTIONABLE. • THIS FINE PROPERTY APPROACHES THE CITY OF COVENTRY, IS BOUNDED BY TWO RIVERS, AND THE TURNPIKE ROAD DIVIDES THE PROPERTY. IT IS, BESIDES, ALL TITHE-FREE, AND EXTRA-PAROCHIAL. MR. GEORGE ROBINS is favoured by in structions from the proprietor, to announce for public competion, at the Auction Mart, London, on TUESDAY, the 16th of June, at Twelve o'clock, in One Lot, A FREEHOLD PROPERTY AND DEMESNE, Of which it may well be said it has no fear of rivalry throughout this admired county—indeed, the advantages are so many, and press in such rapid succession upon the mind of the composer of this very imperfect outline, that it is not a little difficult to state where to begin. However, the effort must be made ; firstly, IT IS DECIDEDLY, FOR ITS SIZE, THE MOST ELIGIBLE, AND CERTAINLY THE MOST COMPACT PROPERTY THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY. There can be no scepticism arise out of this assertion. No one can with justice gainsay this high panegyric. It extends to THE WHOLE HAMLET, TOGETHER WITH THE EXTENSIVE MANOR OF WILLENHALL, which is within two short miles of THE ANCIENT. CITY OF COVENTRY. FIVE CAPITAL FARMS, WITH SUPERIOR BUILDINGS AND WARM FARM-YARDS TO EACH, AND ALL WITHIN A RING FENCE, TITHE FREE AND EXTRA-PAROCHIAL, extending to about SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY ACRES OF 111011 MEADOW. PASTURE, and ARABLE LAND, entirely and strictly within a ring fence, including the prolific woods. The rates are unusually small, arising out of the fact that they are paid by a compromise with the There are LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY COMPANY, whose line passes through WiUmbel]. The soil is of first-rate quality, as the crops annually demonstrate, and the rick yards verify. Every Farm possesses a superior dwelling, with large garden, and the build ings essential for agricultural purposes are unexceptionable, in fact, everything is in the most perfect apple-pie order. A microscopic eye could hardly discover a single thing out of place, and with it: A TENANTRY THAT MR. ROBINS PROCLAIMS CAN NOT BE EXCELLED THROUGHOUT ENGLAND ; AND HEAR IT ALL YE OF LITTLE FAITH IN THE STAPLE COMMODITY OF THE COUNTRY, "THERE IS NOT NOR HAS THERE 'BEEN AN ARREAR OF ONE GUINEA DURING THE LAST TEN YEARS." It may now be asked, " Where is to be found a corresponding case?" AND ECHO REJOINS " WHERE." In respect to the auxiliaries not immediately sought in the shape of income, it should be said THE ADJOINING MANORS ARE STRICTLY PRESERVED BY LORDS CRAVEN AND HOOD, as also the Bagiaton and Brandon property. There is an abundance of game, and field sports extend to a gentleman's fondest desire. The Estate is bounded by two large rivers (the Avon and Sowe), which furnish constant annseafent to those inclined to recreate in fishing. THE ELIZABETHAN VILLA is altogether adapted to a gentleman's occupation. It probably might be improved by a finishing stroke from the hand of an artiste. There is, besides, one of the farm-houses where the proprietor would be but too happy to take up his quarters occasionallydaring the sporting season. The next point requiring a commentary is the rental—it must be premised—there are no leases. The present low rental is 1,550/, a year; but it is quite manifest that SEVENTEEN HUNDRED POUNDS A YEAR will be conceded as a MODERATE rent, and this should be secured to the PRESENT GOOD MEN AND TRUE, by givng to each a fourteen years' lease. James Mellor, Esq., who has so long domesti cated with his family on the hill, and whose quiet abode overlooks Coventry and its beautiful spires, it would be in bad taste to refuse a lease for his life, although it will probably, and it is to be hoped, be a very long one. Longevity prevails on this healthy property, and some time since this was prov4d by MR. BLUE (close by) retiring into a better world, at the advanced age of 108. Mr. Mellor's grounds are beautifully disposed, and more especially the wild flower-garden, (under the worthy lady's especial care), which gives to it a pleasing variety- LORD CRAVEN AND LORD HOOD are close allies ; AND THE ESTATE OF THE BROTHER OF SIR ROBERT PEEL, BART. _ is close at hand. The farms are very productive in the soil for white crops, especially wheat and barley, with some admirable turnip land ; but as dairy farms, and to fatten bullocks, they have even a higher claim. The contiguity to one of the first markets In England, and the facility to return manure, whenever the good folks of Coventry are indulged with a portion of the produce of this highly cultivated soil, are ad vantages that a good agricultttrist will' not overlook. And now, by way of conclusion, Mr. Robins will ask, and with earnestness (taking into the scale the great curiosity that prevails everywhere to get into good farms now-a-days), if the every day observation, resound ing now from all quarters, that THE AGRICULTURAL COMMUNITY HAVE BEEN MORE FRIGHTENED THAN HURT, is not rendered most manifest by the above unassuming recital of facts ? The particulars are ready, and will be distributed, with a draw ing, on the plan with the Elizabethan Villa, by Mr. Phillips, Jun., of Coventry. His father (the eminent practitioner of this great city) will also take the trouble to give all essential explanation, and appoint af t man to go over the estate. Particulars also of Mr. Paine, solicitor, No. 4, Furnival's Inn; the Auction Mart, and at Air. George Robins's offices, London. IN SURREY. A FREEHOLD INVESTMENT, PRODUCING 2861., arising from a DELIGHTFUL PROPER EY, the WOODMANSTERNE MANOR FARM, with CAPITAL RESIDENCE, GARDENS, and GROUNDS, and 122 ACRES of ORNAMENTAL and PRO DUCTIVE LAND, and valu a bl e M anor i al Rights. MR. GEORGE ROBINS i s d i rected to submit to public Sale, at the Auction Mart, on TUESDAY, June 23, at Twelve, in One Lot, A most desirable FREEHOLD ESTATE, pleasantly situate about three miles.from Carshalton, five from Croydon and Epsom, two and-a-half miles only from the Stoat's Nest Station on the Brighton and Dover Railway, and IN IMMEDIATE PROXIMITY TO THE OAKS, so justly celebrated as the most attractive and salubrious part of THE COUNTY OF SURREY, especially to those inclined to field sports, the Surrey Fox Hounds meeting in the neighbourhood: The estate is known as THE WOODMANSTERNE MANOR FARM, comprising a very inviting residence, delightlUlly situate, command ing extensive views, perfectly dry, and possessing every accommoda tion for a family of consequence ; approached by a carriage drive ; seated in its lawn and pleasure-grounds, which are tastefblly laid out and adorned with flowering shrubs, ornamental timber, and planta tions, with sheet of water ha front. The offices are admirably arranged. Double coach-house, five stall stable, and every essential for domestic comfort ; together with 122 ACRES OF PRODUCTIVE LAND, divided into arable, pasture, and wood; the greater portion very compact excellent agricultural buildings, and others yielding a source of profit.

MR. GEORGE ROBINS has pleasure in stating he has been selected to TRANSFER, without a limited price, at the White Lion Hotel, Bristol, on Thursday, the 25th of June, at one, for Two o'clock, precisely, in Two Lots. A SINGULARLY DELIGHTFUL and altogether a MOST ELIGIBLE PROPERTY. is well known and highly appreciated as THE SEVERN HOUSE DEMESNE, four miles from Bristol and Clifton, on the road to the splendid river Severn and the passage Into - Monmouthshire. A description of this villa abode is a matter of necessity, but the writer feels that his representation must necessarily be 'very incomplete, inasmuch, as although it will be conceded that there are to be found a little host of elegant abodes in progressing through the romantic drive of four miles, yet it is confidently stated that there L nothing to present itself that can be put in juxta-position with Severn House. The position is remarkable for the capability it affords to partake in an unusual degree of the extent, and what may really be justly termed TRANSCENDENTLY BEAUTIFUL SCENERY. It would almost wear the patience of the reader to extend the descrip tion of all the writer saw, and strived to appreciate, but it is believed a very few gleanings will suffice to call up the attention of all such as would enjoy the pure, unsophisticated air of Gloucestershire, in a villa which it is universally conceded, stands alone both for situation and prepossessing appearance. It is placed on a lofty and beauteous eminence, but the luxuriant shrubberies and plantations that encircle it, keep the cold winds at a most respectable distance, arid in accomplishing this desideratum, it would appear that fairy land has been sought to aid the great design. On perambulating through these splendid grounds the views are (en verite) magnificent, and the extent almost without a limit. THE CONFLUENCE OF THE SEVERN AND THE AVON is immediately in view, and the perpetual moving scenery in the dis tance must be seen if the realer desires to appreciate it, for it is quite certain this imperfect account will leave an immeasurable host of ob jects entirely disregarded.

The road from Clifton is full of variety, and on arriving at the Severn Mansion, it will be perceived much of ingenuity must have been brought into the field to accomplish the delightful ascent to be encountered ftom the very pretty entrance-lodge -gate but the reader is invoked, and with no small portion of anxiety, not to rely on anything short of ocular demonstration ; as the fame of this residence has extended far and near, It necessarily renders it a work of supererogation and lightens the necessity to go into a more minute detail than this hasty compo sition will furnish. Clifton, the great feature of Gloucestershire, is close at hand, and becomes an auxiliary that it would be an injustice to overlook. The neighbourhood is prone to good-fellowship, but if the fortunate occupant prefers quietude and repose to the gaiety that will surround him, he may enjoy it here uninterruptedly. All the great lions of the county are close at hand. THE FAMED PIERCEFIELD is only a short drive, and Barnsville-park, a minor candidate for fame, is not far off, the verdant seenery which interposes itself in the progress to these highly commended properties extends over a vale so rich and lovely that its beauties seem to exceed the powers of commendation, and be it remembered all this (and very much more than has been asserted in this brief analysis) is within four hours' pleasant drive of the metropolis of London. This delightful abode has not yet been noticed sufficiently. " THERE IS THAT WITHIN WHICH PASSETH SHOW." It is a building of considerable pretensions in its outward and visible signs; and a family, although numbering very many, will find the most ample accommodation within ; it may be added, that it lacks nothing that can be understood in the comprehensive term of com fort. The out-offices are most complete throughout, the court yard is worthy of admiration, and a sporting gentleman will find in the stabling and coach houses all that ingenuity can suggest. The kitchen-gardens are very extensive, inclosed by lofty brick walls, and the soil is exceedinglyprolific ; the fruit is considered unusually high flavoured.

He sub mittel that these two Bills ought to proceed independently of each other. Mr. WELL, having replied, and Mr. HOPE having rejoined, The Committee ord4red the room to be cleared. On our return,- The CHAtastAs said the Committee are of opinion that the London and Birmingham (St. Alban's and Litton), and the:London and York. (St. Alban's, Luton and Duststable), are competing lines, and have resolved that they be treated at such. Mr. DErixisox then proceeded with the cross-examination of Mr. Sibley. Mr. Howse, of Wheathamstead ; Mr. Lewin, of Harpenden ; Mr. Rogers, of Dunstable; and Mr. Richardson, Mr.,lfarris, and Mr. Wingrove, of Luton, the two first being farmers, and the others straw-plait manufacturers, gave general evidence in favour of the London and York (Luton French). On Mr. DENNISON rising to cross-examine Mr. Lewin, Mr. WELLS requested to beallowed to ask a question of his Learned Friend. He wished to blow how it was that his Learned Friend so soon had forgotten the good resolution he had made in the early part of the morning, not to cross-examine any of the Luton wit nesses ? It was hardly fair for his friend to take this course after the implied promise contain, d in his assertion that he did not mean to cross-examine any Luton witnesses. Mr. DENNISON wished to know whether much time would be saved by his friend being allowed to cross-examine him ? lie proceeded with the cross - examination of the witnesses. Several other witnessesfroinSt.Albaws and Luton Ns ere then called, and gave general evidence as to the straw-plait, road., and other trades of those places. This class of evidence occupied the whole of the remaining part of the day, and at about twenty minutes past four o'clock the Com mutes adjourned till Thursday, the I I th of June, when they will meet at twelve o'clock. The engineering evidence and some formal busi nus will then be proceeded with. GROUP XXIX. ELY AND BURY. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.) Mr. H. C. Lacey:, chairman of the Ely and Bury Company aid chairman of the Huntingdon Company, as well as a director of the South Western Company, stated that the project was first conceived in 1844, and would have been brought sooner before Parliament, but for the illness of Mr. Buck, the engineer. The object of his evidence was to show that this being a branch line, the establishment of a staff for; management Would answer for other lines as well as this, and the expense, therefore, be economised. The Learned Counsel then went through a detail of the population on the line, the villages silv showing w a i n c h aggregate i 11 c o country between Sowham and Ely. The difference between the length of the two lines is two miles; on one line the ruling gre client is 234, but on the other line it is lin 132.

Mr. Kerling, the steward of Sir H. Bunbury, who has more than 8,000 acres at Mildenhall, where the sessions are held, said in the neigh bourhood there are extensive gravel pits, the extracts of which are largely used in the repair of the few roads, and if this line were es tablished, the cost of carriage would be reduced by 28. a ton. Mr. Gwilt, an extensive landowner on the line, testified to the quantity of gravel which is obtained for the improvement of the roads of the neighbourhood. Mr. Robinson, vestry clerk of Mildenhall, gave evidence to the same effect. taiisLynifl:.lll'°°°°. exclusive of the Mr. B. Jennings, of Bury St. Edmund's (which is one of the largest seed markets in England, and the largest corn market in Suffolk), stated that from the 9th April, 1845, to Ist April, 1846, there were 162,000 quarters of corn sold; and of seeds there are between 3,000 and 4,000 tons sold every year. The line is of vital import ance, for should this railway not be made, the inhabitants of Bury would become the servants of the merchants at Lynn and Ipswich. Mr. O'MALLEY appeared for the Corporation of Bury, and put in an interlocutory, as the line affected Bury. Mr. Croft; au auctioneer and surveyor, stated that the line would intersect the town, and that the distance tot he Marsh Gate was 567 yards, and generally testified as to thed ifferencelof the advantages of the two lines with respect to Bury, especially with respect to the cattle market and Brook-street. A conversation ensued with respect to the communication with. Monday we cl. GROUP XXXII. The Conunittee met thif day at two o'clock, Mr. J. P. Denison in the chair. OXFORD, WORCESTER. WOLVER.. ITA.T4I. TO Z.T )3 NCS ). Mr. SELVE, for the ironmasters of the district near Dudley, stated that what they principally objected to in the matters of tolls was the six miles clause, which gave the company power to charge for one mile as for six miles, and the per centage clause, which allowed the Company to charge 25 per cent. more when the carriage was under 23 miles. They wished in the one case a two mile clause. Witnesses were called to give evidence on the subject of tolls. After considerable discussion, Mr. COCKBURN offered for the Companyafcar mile clause, but this was rejected. The room was then cleared. on re-admission parties were told that the determination of the Committee on the six:mile clause was that that clause should be left undisturbed on the main line, but in reference to the side line the Committee were prepared to recommend, atter what had passed, that not a four mile but a three mile clause should be adopted. Some debate afterwards arose concerning saving clauses as to the interests of the Warwick and Birmingham Canal. But the Committee seeing they could not go through all the clauses tonight, adjourned at half-pant live o'clock .till eleven o'clock to'. morrow. GROUP Lill. This Committee met to-day at half-past one o'clock, in room 26 of the New Houses of Parliament; present, the lion. E.

MAY 30, 1846. to the prejudice of the vested interests of a line that had secured the sanction of the Legislature, merely to benefit them in their indi vidual position of great landed proprietors. The Learned Gentleman of his address, concluded by calling on the Committee to rej ec t t h e having amplified further on these points, and recapitulat e d t h e heads preamble of the North British (Carlisle Extension), and to pass that o f the Caledonian (Langholm Branch). Mr. rammer then replied on the part of the North British line, and on behalf of the petitioning proprttors, the Duke of Buccleuch and Sir James Graham. He would, in the first place, deal with the affirmative advantages of the Bill f r which he appeared before he replied to the eloquent statement of his Learned Friend. The preamble of the Nerth British (Carlisle Extension) line sot forth that great public advantages would result from the pasging of the Bill in question. They pronahed at the opening of the proceedings that they would establish a strong case of lqcal traffic, and they had amply redeemed that promise. They had shown that the district to be accommodated was a rich agricul tural and pastoral district, which was, in regard to the woollen tra le, desirable. By the railways already the West Riding of Scotland—a district, moreover, which as yet had been placed on the apex of a neither canal nor railway accommodation. It had, he submitted, the is south, in to th a e cco m m a m m od ter : been proved that the trade of the district was very great, and that the only thing that interfered with the ample development of the this was the natural course of traffic, and all clearly district was a cheap and abundant supply of coal, which at was an ocritledt not It was on the point of traffic confluence from Edinburgh and Berwick last sanctioned Hawick had te an th d e at mi :r e al priceand triangle in raga t' to accommodation. of the two lines sanctioned showed that that was required now agricultural rauduce of the district. had been taken, it h ad been shown t t a s t at least one-third far " evidence of the agricultu ra l produce went west and south quired the present li ne o f railway accommodatiosen, and re was clear that th e p ro d uce of Roxburghshrre went in l The q proof titles to Dumfriesshire, and that at least 3 , 3 00 tons of grain e -lian went from the former to the latter county for se e d and for other It had also been shown that cattle and sheep were fattenerl rPese el s. y in Roxburghshire, and that they a b so l u t e l y required a southern rail way accommodation like the present line. They had called the best witness in Scotland on the subject, Mr. Scott, who de posed that he sent south to Liverp oo l and Lancashire generally about 4,000 fat sheep yearly, besides a large quantity sent from East Lothian, via Glasgow to Liverpool. It had also been proved that there would be large traffic in lean cattle and sheep that would, pass 'along the line, arising from the large fairs held in the county of Roxburgh. The evidence of Mr. Scott on this head was fortified by the evidence of Mr. Nelson, who had been actually examined on a similar point the year before by the Caledonian Company. He was, therefore, an unimpeachable autheel.ty- 11 0.(Mr-J,040t) 12 4 41 now dealt ''nitil ' the attriettutal exports, anti he would - flow= briefly call their attention to the question of imports in order to effect improvements In the cultivation of land. The area of country around llawick required tiles, Sr, at Last, clay, to make them of, and coals by which to burn them ; and these would be sup plied in large quantities, and at a cheap rate, from Canobie. It was also necessary to have railway connexion in order to obtain supplies of guano and other manure, from the adjoining ports. Then, with regard to the southern limb of the scheme, they had the evidence of the Duke of Buccleuch and Sir J. Graham, who spoke strongly in fa vour of the line as a means of supplying the demands of the agriculturists of that part of the country. So much for the agricultural features of the scheme ; now for the those of a manu facturing character. It had been proved that the quantity of foreign wool."_especially wool from New York, was increasing every year at tlawick, and also that a large trade was carried out in manufac tured goods with London. In these days of competition short and direct routes were indispensable for manufacturers. It had been shown by Mr. Locke, the Tweed draper, that no line of communication would be advisable for the district, unless it connected it in a direct manner with Liverpool and Manchester. It was therefore absurd, and out of all • character, that the inhabitants of the district should be sent thirty or forty miles round, by way of Berwick. Again; it had been proved that in Galashiels and Herrick the water-power was almost taken up, and that a cheap and abun dant supply of coal was necessary, in order to apply steam as a motive power ; and it bad been further shown that the supply of this mineral could be best had from the Canobie coal-field. Such was the outline of the case for the line, presenting a case of strong local want for the line in question. One remarkable fact in their case was, that of the 42 miles in extent, they had on 37 miles of it the assent of the landed proprietors, while on the whole they had bat a single mile of dissents. The Learned Gentleman hav ing dwelt on the points of the case as developed in evidence, went on to reply to the observations made on behalf of the Caledonian Com- I 'Any, by Mr. Cockburn. With regard to the Caledonian line, he must say that it was useless to the district through which the Hawick line passed, and it would be worse than useless if it were to be protected, during all time future, from any line passing from Carlisle to Hawick. He submitted the Caledonian had no standing before the Committee, and had only sneaked in by their proposition of the Langholm branch. In doing this they submitted the principle of the Hawick line, though they.stopped short of giving that accommodation to the district which it required. Beyond the portion of the Hawick line that competed with their Langholm branch, they had no locus standi, and had no right to appear against the twenty miles from Langholm to Hawick. He repbdiated the notion of the Caledonian line talking of vested rights. He hoped the day had gone by when vested rights, except in well-established cases, and not on such as the Caledonian had submitted, had gone by, and that the public interests were to be sacrificed to the selfish policy of a grasping company. The Learned Gentleman then went over the various points adduced in support of the Caledonian. He denied that the present line was put forward as a competing line with that, though he did not deny but that some parties might come along this one, in preference to the other. But the wine through traffic was estimated at about 21,0001., and the utmost that might be taken from it could not be more than 4,0001. or 5,0001.:; yet on the hare contingency of that they were led to belieVe that the Caledonian was a company that could be extinguished by the slightest blow. Then they were assailed that the North British Company would not have enough of traffic to support their line, but he submitted that was no business of the Chairman and directors of the Caledonian Company, though he admitted it was a subject for the consideration of the Committee. His clients had produced along the route of the line witnesses who knew the wants of the district well, while those called oil the other side, with the exception of that notable member of the fourth estate, Mr. Steele, who had all along been a partisan of the Caledonian, had no local connexion with the district whatever. He submitted: that manufacturers and agriculturists, who knew all about the district and mineral agents, residing at Canobie, were witnesses more to be relied on than Mr. Pare, who had been employed to get up a case, and the other parties, who had merely run over the district once or twice, and who had no knowledge of the real wants and traffic of the country with respect to the Canobie coal-field. Evidence had been clearly given to show that there were ten seams of coal, of which but three were now working ; that the supply was most ample; that so far from coals from Berwick suppL.nting Canobie coal at Hawick, it was mo; e likely that Canobie coal would go to Berwick, en account of the saperiority_of the article. All the Com ntitte-e—ebilld on this point was compare the one evidence with the other, and judge between them. On the passenger traffic it was a remarkable fact, that where these estimates could be corrected by way bills, it was found to agree in the main with the other side, as shown in the evidence of that euphoneous pair, Messrs. Piper and Tyther: and it was only when the romantic calculations of Mr. Pare were introduced that a discrepancy was made out. On the engi neering differences in the estimates he would rot the established character of Mr. Miller against the evidence on the other side, with the high observation that Mr. Locke, in his original esti mate, set down the Caledonian line at, 2,100,0001. Taking away 130,0001. for plant, and dividing the remainder of the number of miles, the amount per mile would show actually less than the estimate of Mr. Miller. This would show how the matter stood between the rival engineers, and how much this alleged discrepancy was worth. The Learned Gentleman then addressed himself to the Langholm branch and the junction at the station, with reference to the evidence of SirJ. Graham, that the line ought to run upon the south( bank of the Eak, and that with respect to the junction at Carlisle, the promoters of the Bill were willing to leave the matter to the adjudication of the Board of Trade. The Learned Gentleman concluded by strongly impressing on the mind of the Committee the necessity of passing the preamble of the Bill. The room was then cleared for a division, IMPORTANT DECISION. After an absence of about half an hour the parties were called in, when The CHAIRMAN said the decision •f the Committee was, that the preamble of the Bill of the Langholm branch of the Caledonian Rail way had not been proved; also that the preamble of the North British (Carlisle Extension) had not been proved. They, however, reserved that portion of the North British preamble that related to the small branch to the Canobie coal-field, so as to aseerta'n whether by the forms of the House they could retain it, so as to form a junc tion with the branch of the Dumfries line. Practically, however, the decision was the rejection of both schemes at present before the Com mittee. The consideration of the Cansble Branch and the clauses of the Glasgow, Dumfries, and Carlisle Bill were adjourned till Monday week. GROUP XVII. BOVISET AITD REDBRXDGE BRANCH. (Continued front our Afternoon Eciitiou of yesterday.) _ . . - Mr. C. Stovin, the traffic manager of the G rea t Western, was then examined. He said when the traffic bills were printed he invariably examined them. He had a copy of the passenger tables issued about the Ist of January, 1841. He was not sure whether the line was opened to Northern or Southampton at that period ; but the distance between London and Southampton, as stated in the bills of that period, was seventy-six miles and three-quarters, but the gds traffic distance seventy-six miles. Winchfield was looked upon as half-way between Southampton and London. and was considered thirty-eight miles from Southampton. The time bills were published about every month, and little variation was made in them, except in May and in the fall of the year. He could undertake to say that no change took place in the bills between May and September 1844. By the May bill of that year the dis tance was set down as seventy-seven miles and a quarter, and the distance from Southampton to Winehtield was thirty-nine miles, or from Southampton to London seventy-seven miles and a quarter. By the bills of January and March, 1845, the distance charged for passengers between Southampton was forty miles, and for goods thirty-nine. The abatement for carrying twenty tons for forty miles was thirty per cent., and for thirty-nine 20 per cent., making a difference of 10 per cent. They were entitled to charge for forty miles, if the distance was a fraction over thirty-nine. Nothing, however, was gained by this, as it had nothing to do with the charges. The line was, however, re-surveyed last year, and this seeming discrepancy was rectified, and the fares for both passengers and goods were only charged for the net distance. Mr. Davis—Then the passengers;by the Parliamentary train should pay Id. more than they do. and the Company gain 10 per cent. by having charged 40 miles for passengers, and only 39 for goods ? The witness said under the old time bill referred to by Mr. Davis that was actually the case on the face of It, but the company really derived no advantage from it. between Winchfield and Southampton. Coals taken from the wharf at Nine Elms to Southampton were conveyed at 2%c1. a ton, but 3d. a ton was charged IYom Southampton. Examined by Mr. HATHERTON—The distance in 1845 was found to be 78. The heavy traffic of all kinds did not exceed five tons a week between Winchfteld and Southampton. The charges for con veying coals were regulated by the large quantity sent from London, and the small quantity sent from Southampton. The arrangement made the with the dock p ropr i etors at Southampton was made for purpose of improvin which trade of Southampton But an alteration had been made equalised the expense to 10s. a ton at both docks and pier ; but the carriage of goods to and from the pier was 2s. Gd. more than the docks. John Davis re - examined—The charge of carrying 10 tons from Southampton to Winchtleld tivas former y 21. 16s. after deducti ng th e " rebate" of 30 p er cent., but now 31. 14s. 2d. was charged, thus in creasing the expense to 18s. 2d. After a few observations from Mr. Davis, the case of the opponents of the Bill was closed. NiII.NCLIESTER. AND SOUTHAMPTON. The formal proofs in this Bill were then adduced, and the Com. mittee adjourned till Thursday next, at twelve o'clock, when Mr. Servant Wraugham will open the case of the promoters. GROUP XVIII. EXILTER. ATM WESTERN RAILWAY. B. Denison, Esq , chairman. J. Jones,: Esq., vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, Guern sey, was examined on behalf of the Great Western Company, but his evidence was not of a nature even to benefit the South-Western Company. The principal parts of his evidence went to show the convenience of a railway from Weymouth to the northern, western, and eastern parts of the country. In cross-examination, however, ho admitted that all the railways were at present constructed from which he cou'd derive any advantage. Capt. White, commander of a steam-vessel between Southampton and Jersey, proved the superiority of Weymouth over Portsmouth as a harbour for the trade of the Channel Islands. hlr. Devenish was next examined—Di the course of his examina- tion, however, The Citammax stated that his evidence, in his opinion, went as much in favour of the Exeter and Yeovil Company as for the Great Western. 3fr. Cullen and Mr. Fox were also called on behalf of the South- Western Company. At the conclusion of the last witness's examination, the CuAnnus ordered the room to be cleared. On the parties being re-admitted, the Cneramax announced that the Committee had desired hint to intimate to the parties that they should endeavour to ascertain whether it would not be practicable to construct the line between Exeter and Yeovil in such ammeter that it might suit beth gauges. They wished it at the same time to be dis tinctly understood that the opinion of the Committee was not to be considered as favourable to either one scheme or other. The Committee then adjourned till Monday week. GROUP XXVIII. The Select Committee on this group met thLs morning in Room 33 ; Lord Dalmony in the chair. LONDON AND YOUK (ST.

Mr. DENNISON, on the part of the London and Birmingham (St. Alban's and Luton), before cross-examining the first witness (a farmer at Harpenden), wished to suggest to the C omm i ttee that, in truth, these were not competing lines.

Persons assured in this office may change from one country to ano ther without forfeiting their policies. Mr. GRAHAM, agent for the promoters, informed the Committee that there was only one opponent to the measure, whose consent to the Bill had, however, been obtained, and final arrangements were proceeding to allow the Bill to pass unopposed. After some conversation the Committee adjourned to three o'clock, to give time for preparation of the clauses, according to the arrange ment stated. A Bonus, amounting to thirty per cent, on the actual value of the policies, was apportioned to the.assured at the First Septennial Meet ing, held in the year 1844. JOSEPH C. BRETTELL, Secretary.

The Bill as so amended was passed, and the Committee rose having gone through all the Bills in the group assigned to it. GROUP XIII, PUBLICATIONS. The Committee met to-dejai twelve o'clock, Sir Wm. Clay in the chair. The other members present were Earl Jermyn, Mr. P. Ains worth, and Mr. Curteis. C.ILLEDONVIN (La NGHOLPT 132,ANCH). On the assembling of the Committee, Mr. Hors, in the absence of Mr. Cockburn, who was not present to sum up when called on, and whose speech was therefore deferred, proceeded to address the Committee against the North British Extension in respect to the junction proposed at the Carlisle central station. If the Com mittee would sanction the junction in question, he hoped they would place his clients, the Lancaster and Carlisle Company, in a very awkward position. That company had already entered into an understanding with three other eompanies for station accommo dation, and were the North British allowed to come in, in addition to those, the public Inconvenience would be very great. So many lines crossing at the station, and the influx of passengers, would be so great, as not only to endanger the safe working of the station, but to damage to a great extent the whole arrangements of the Lancaster and Carlisle Com pany. His clients thought such a junction unjustifiable, as the public convenience did not require this liawick line, the whole wants of the district being fully supplied by the great line of the Cale donian Company. Their opinion was that the Hawick line was not at all required, and they prayed the Committee would not allow the line in question to come into the station, occasionally an alteration of the level, depriving the Company with which arrangements had been already made in regard to station room, and deranging the whole affairs of the Lancaster and Carlisle Company. On these grounds, therefore, he prayed that, even did the Committee tee fit to pass the preamble of the Bill, they would allow the line to come r#4 further present than the outside or the w a lls or Carlisle; leaving it to d' future session to legislate as to the mode in which it should enter the city. Mr. commume then proceeded to sum up the case on behalf of the Caledonian Company. Ire submitted that no case had been made out to justify the large amount of capital named by the promoters of the Ilawick Company. They proposed to expend from 600,0001. to 700,0001., the principal portion of which would have to be spent in that part of the line between Laugholm and Ilawick. Two-thirds of the capital would be required for that part, against which he submitted that no case of traffic had been made out. This extent of country was purely an agricultural district; little traffic in respect to it had been made out, and so the case had been made to depend on the manufacturing character of Galashiels and llawiek. Then, in regard to these, the largest of which had only a population of 8,000, the necessity of the line was urged in regard to the traffic going to the south. With respect to Hawick, it had been shown that the whole value of the manufactures of Hawick, per annum, was about 2,50,000/., or in weight, 520 tons, of which it had been shown not more than eighty or ninety tons would find its way to the south. In the case of the Hawick and Edinburgh line of last year the great point dwelt on was the intercourse to the north—to Edinburgh and Glasgow—and not that to the south, lint even with regard to the small Southern traffic now shown it had been proved that railway accommodation could be had to the south by way of Bernick and Newcastle; and with regard to heavy commodities to London, they would still have the steam and sailing vessels from Leith and Berwick. The same principle in respect to the course of trade applied to the imports to Hawick and Galashiels. The principal import was wool, for which it was alleged a railway communication was required in order to get the article from Liverpool. Now, it had been shown that it could be got from Hawick to London by steam and land conveyance for 225. a ton ; whereas, being a bulky article, it could not be brought from Liveipool by railway, a distance of 168 miles, for less than 3d. a ton per mile, making 425., thus showing a balance in favour of the other route of 20a. a ton. He apprehended with this kind of bulky commodity the water con veyance would always be preferred to that of land. Hawick and Galashiels had already communication with Edinburgh and Berwick, and they had the full benefit of the water conveyance from those parts to the various ports of the United Kingdom. Reviewing the whole manufacturing evidence of traffic, there was no case made out to warrant such an enormous amount of capital. The next point of the promoters, and on which they had laid great stress, was the local traffic along the line, especially coals. On that article alone they had estimated 24,000 tons to be carried to Hawick for annual consumption, though last year they endeavoured to prove that that place would be supplied in a great measure from Mid-Lothian. The witnesses of his clients, Mr. Wil liamson anctMr. Wood, had proved that the extensive coal-fields of Berwickshire, of- which the produce was superior to that of Canobie, would supply Hawick in a great measure, and that supplies would be had also from Northumberland and Mid-Lothian. On this article of mineral, as well as on that of lime, it had been shown that the North British promoters had greatly exaggerated their case. The same applied to the alleged traffic in grain from Itoxburghshire to Dumfriesshire. The reason for this expected traffic was, that prices were higher in the latter county than in the former ; but it had been subsequently preyed that prices between the two districts were fast assimilating, and that no such traffic as they took credit for could be had on . the various heads. The North British took credit for 60,561/., but certainly no case had been made out warranting such an amount of traffic. The Learned Gentleman then went through the items of passenger traffic, contending that from the evidence of Mr. Piper and Mr. Tither, coach proprietors, of Carlisle, and of Mr. Pare, the traffic taker, no such traffic existed on the line of road as they had taken credit for. Not only had they swept the road of every person seen upon the road, but they had in addition assumed that the traffic would be developed to the extent of 150 per cent. more. It was most unprecedented to sweep the road, and then add 150 per cent. for increase. The proper correction, therefore, was two thirds less than that they had taken credit for. Not only had the various Items of traffic he had referred to been monstrously exaggerated, but the same applied to the items of stone, bricks, timber, and small parcels, on an of which Mr. Pare had, from correct data, made large deductions. Mr. Pase's calculations were the result of observations made at a fair average time of the year, and they had every ap pearance of being fair and reasonable. With regard to the item of fish, which it was alleged would pass from Dun bar, he never heard a more monstrous assumption. They were to bring the fish a long journey over the Scotch mountains, as if there was no sea on the west side of the island, and Liverpool at present had no fresh fish. It was most absurd to suppose that 2,100/. would be pro duced by any such means. Not only was Liverpool to be supplied with fish, but also with slaughtered meat; but, at present, at all events, no such traffic existed, nor did he think there would. But, supposing even this traffic to arise, it was the legitimate traffic of the Cale donian which was now constructing on the faith of an Act of Parlia ment obtained last year. But, supposing a case of local traffic was made out, what was the result in regard to the Caledonian line already sanctioned ? It was no longer disguised that they intended to be a through competing line with the Caledonian, and to take away the traffic that was expected to come upon that line., He sub mitted, whatever might be the view of the Committee in regard to granting accommodation for local traffic to any place that could make out anything like a case of traffic, that on the grounds of equity and justice the claims of the Caledonian should be considered. That company was in a position from which they could not recede, as a million of money would not re-instate that Company in its former position, and therefore he did hope the Committee would not grant a direct competing line through to Edinburgh. With regard to theNithsdale line, the case was made to depend on local traffic, and he believed the Committee decided it on that view of the question, but in the present case of the North British there was no disguise; the object was avowedly to compete through to Edinburgh, against which he hoped his clients would be protected by the decision of the Committee. If the matter of through traffic was set aside, then he was quite sure no case of local traffic had been made out. And then let them look at the character of the estimates. He had called witnesses to show that 190,000/. more than the capital of 660,0001. would be required to complete the line. Ther was no doubt a conflict of authority on these p o i nts, still it Is e matter for their grave deliberation, as the co rrec t e l results were given by experienced enginee rs , who were actually en gaged in making a li n e o f railway :throag h milar tract of country. Assumin g th a t the one estimate wa s too high the other mast be consider ed too low, and viewing this in connex i on with the corrections made I n th e tra ff ic tables —assuming that both sides were exaggerated, let the Committee_ Calmly consider whether there was any case made Ou t t o Warrant the construction of such a line. The Learned Gentleman having amplified on these points, proceeded to compare th e portion of the Ilawickfrom Lang holm to Carlisle with the Caledonian scheme the same points. Th e only difference be tween th( b s e n tw w ee a l s i 2% miles ; and while the Ilawick promoters would have to construct 19 miles of railway, the Caledonia!' would only have to make l 3 miles of new railing. Whil e the 234 miles of length was in favourof the Hawick scheme, the vadients on the Caledonian line would more than compensate for that difference ; for while the gradients on 1111 former were one in 140 for two miles, one in 130 for one and three-quarter miles, and one in 175 for two and a half miles, the heaviest gradient on the latter was one in 150. The difference in point of expense would also be one-half less in favour of the Caledo nian line. The only point between Langholm and Carlisle that the Caledonian did not touch was Langton; but he would, with all deference, say, that there' was not a sorrier place in her Majesty's d om i n i ons—there was not the Ines" of getting a single dinner in the place. Sir James Graham submitted the inn in the place was shut up. He did not think, therefpre, that there was much necessity for r a il way accommo d a tions I,r such a place. He could well understand how the Duke of Buccleuch, through whose property the line ran for 26 miles, and Sir James Graham, whose estate was intersected for 8 miles--he could well understand how they supported that scheme. It would n o doub t be an advantage to them, but he submitted, the national ing the high character of these proprietors, that capital should not be applied without a Pr9sPeCt Of remuneratinn, and L OOK OUT FOR THE " DERBY ERA: GRATIS, next Saturday.

The London and York, including the loop, was 283 miles. The Eastern Counties Extension was 227 miles. The expense of constructing the London and York line, would almost construct the London and Birmingham and Grand Junction lines, which were heavy lines, and the York and North Midland lines, which were comparatively light lines. The cost of railway construction was higher now than it was last year. As there was a portion of the line easy and cheap of construction, eight millions would be a fair estimate for constructing the London and York line, according to Mr. Cubitt's plan. The original estimate did not include the miscellaneous expenses, such as law, Parliamentary, and surveying ; these expenses would exceed 2,0001. per mile. The cost of constructing the Eastern Counties Extension would be, including all expenses, about 400,0001. The: gradients .on the Eastern Counties line were favourable. The gradients on the Cambridge line were almost a level. They were as 1 In 1,700, 1 in 1,900, and lin 2 , 000;. with these exceptions it was a perfect level. The gradients on Mr: Cubitt's line were as lin 200. Practically speaking, the differene4 of distance in the two lines would be but little, considering the superiority of the engines of the Eastern Counties line ovr those which could be had by the London and York line. The gradients on the :Eastern Counties were so favourable that the engineers would be able to get over more ground, and the ultimate result would be that the difference in distance would be almost anni hilated. The delays and stoppages which took place on many lines of railway were owing generally to the character of the gradients, and this would he the case with the London and York line. GROUP LIV.

The flirther investigation of this scheme was proceeded with this nArning by the Committee, who did not assemble till one hour alter their usual time of meeting. Mr. Ellison, a civil engineer, was the first witness called, and corroborated the engineering evidence that was given before the Committee yesterday. rilr. Harris, of Leicester, deposed as to the value of the land that would be required for the purposes of the railway, and stated that the cast of the land would not exceed the amount set down in the estimate- With the last witness the case for the promoters was finished. Mr. CALVERT, on behalf cf the promoters, said that he had to state to the Committee that he proposed to amend the preamble by with drawing that portion of the line which was net included in the com munication between Nuneaton and Wigston. The formal proofs of assents and dissents were then put in. Mr. M. D. HILL, on the part of several landowners on the line, wished to propose some alterations in the clauses, and to introduce new clauses ; and a discussion ensued, which occupied the attention of the Committee till the hour of rising.

The only saving clause by which he can well seek to soften the reproaches of an enlightened and deeply-Teed community is :lune to be found in thev liberty the com poser will take with authors so highly gifted, that he must Indeed be a bold man who will not yield assent to his researches. Dugdak is no mean authority, and with this, and a few introductory facts, the herculean task must be approached. THE FORD ABBEY DEMESNES are to be traced back to a very distant day, and it has ever since maintained its proud superiority over EVERY OTHER MONASTERY IN ENGLAND. It is a splendidly grand and uniquo building, altogether realising Lord Byron's glowing description of Norman Abbey-- An old, old monastery once, and now Still older mansion, of a rich and tare Mix'd Gothic, such as artists all allow Few specimens yet left us can compare. Its classic front EXTENDS TO NEAR THREE HUNDRED FEET. The order of architecture is in the Tudor style, and may be dated about the time of Henry VIII. ; but to describe it as it deserves is felt to be far beyond the reach of the limited capacity of the com poser and even much wiser head s would be puzzled in the attempt to do it justice—it is indeed THE GREAT LEVIATHAN OF THE WEST. Its fame has been held in the highest veneration from generation to generation, and it is now avowed to have no successful rival amid the vast variety of monasteries to be found throughout the country. The first impression on beholding this ANCIENT AND CLASSIC PILE the writer feels can never be obliterated from his memory; his mind on the instant seemed to be subdued into a most devout and reli gious state —one of absolute wonder—mixed up with bound less admiration ; it was a joyous spectacle, but Mr. Robins cannot too earnestly invoke all those who possess a soul congenial with ob jects of antiquity to go to the Abbey, and then judge for themselves ; they will, with one accord, proclaim how absolutely impossible it is to convey in suitable terms the panegyric which would be awarded to it. However, these preliminary remarks must arrive at a conclu sion ; the form prescribed to the length ofan announcement will not ad mit of more, but the writer promises, in his printed particulars, to go into a little historical statement that will be acceptable, at least to the learned, and all such as are well versed in our history; and he is fortunately enabled, by the assistance of a very highly talented lady, to aid the historical account of Dugdale by selections of her own, and guided by ajudgment and cleverness that has never been held in doubt. To gratify the learned and the curious in distant parts, Mr. Robins has determined to append to the explanatory par ticulars of the several farina and lands a plan of the whole, with a beautiful drawing of the Abbey, to be ready six weeks antecedent to the sale. The situation of this monastery is familiar to most of rs. It is on the borders of the three line counties of Dorset, Devon, and Somerset, 15 miles from Taunton, 3 from Chard, about 50 miles from Bristol and Bath, and within a delightful ride of E.% hours from Loudon, which the approaching railway through Chard will reduce to about 4 hours, and also bring it within fifty minutes' ride of Exeter. Th e county in which the Abbey is placed will not yield to any other. The reader needs not be reminded that, in days of yore, the taste of the monks in the selection of their lands was never questioned, and, amidst all the good things of this world, they were remarkable for the accuracy of their judgment. In selecting the best of everything, even THE FAT OF THE LAND was not ACCOUNTED TOO GOOD FOR TIIEIR REFINED TASTE. This princely property is all freehold of inheritance, surrounded by lawns and pleasure-grounds, with gravelled walks between rows of umbrageous trees of great size and stateliness, interspersed with or namental waters, cascades, and waterfalls sparkling with foam, and here and there a statue to diversify the scene. The Park, which Is one of great beauty, is stocked with deer, whose venison has ob tained the highest celebrity for its fatness and fine flavour, while the soft undulating foliage of •its magnificent and TIME.HONOURED TREES is perpetually deluding the eye into a belief that it was of almost boundless extent, and imparting just such an air of tempered witti ness as would gratify the lover of scenery, without offence to thoie who are Inclined to look rather for the evidences of the superintend ing hand of care and cultivation. Indeed everything scorns to In crease the charms of a spot so rich in nature's beauties. Of the orna mental waters in front of the Abbey it is recor d ed-- Before the mansion lay a lucid lake, Broad as transparent, deep and freshly fed By a river, which its softened way did take In currents through the calmer waters spread. THE RIVER AXE _ _ So renowned by the disciples of Isaakliralton for Its placatory pleasures and delicious trout, winds, in serpentine beauty, through the fair demesne. Lost for a space through thickets veering, But broader when again appearing. It was here that The branching stag swept down with all his herd, To quaff a brook which murmured like a bird. It may still be asked, "WHAT MORE CAN MORTALS NOW DESIRE ?" • . The sporting qualities extend to everything a gentleman's heart can contemplate ; by the way, THE MONKS' CELEBRATED WALK is in high preservation. And to omit a panegyric upon THE ANCIENT TAPESTRY THAT ADORNS THE STATE ROOMS . . would approach sacrilege. It really and truly may be accounted the W ONDER AND ADMIRATION OF THE WORLD.
