THE PRESENT HOT WEATHEN.—The most agreeable relief during this hot weather, is the use of Ross and Sons Esprit de Lavande, as it is not only, the most durable of per fumes, but the most reviving and refreshing. It is made from the finest lavender water, perfected with extracts from the choicest flowers, woods and Oriental gurns,'and smells, if possible, more pleasant as it dries on the handkerchief, than when first applied. It has taken the sole proprietOrs2o years to bring it to its present state of perfection. Address Ross and Sons, 119 and 120, Bishopagate-street, who import the finest French perfumes, made expressly for them in the south of France, and which are four times the strength and flavour of any to be obtained in Paris.

Colonel 3: illington, commandant of the military depot at Miidstone, where there are at present depots of five regi ments, besides the riding-school, where there were, always detaCh in en t s from every cavalry regiment.Th e nuniber oftroops at present there is about six hundred. Large numbers of men were enlisted in London and sent down there. He had marched the.troops which were drafted fcr foreign service to Hkrn, a distance of eight miles, and there put them on theTailway iu pr4e.rence to going the roundabout route of the present line. In every way the proposed branch would be a benefit, but he believed the barracks and other public buildings were nearer,to the.opposing.simpapheric line. Mr—Wvlde, a solicitor, and for fourteen years deputy clerk of the peace, testified to the great inconvenience of getting to Maidstone from the east part of Kent. So great had been the change in the feeling of the inhabitants of that place, that instead of being opposed to it, they would have made the line themselves, it the South Eastern .Company had not included it in their group, and so general is the. consent of the landowners that the line might almost be made with out an Act of Parliament. The expense of conveying pri soners to the county gaol, was in 1842, 2,546/., and en an average of seven years it was 2.8921., which by the construc tion of the railway there would be a saving of at least 1,0001. a year. The witness also spoke generally as to the conve nience to the immediate district, and stated that so great is the inconvenience at present, that goods between Maidstone and - Ashford are now sent by the road instead of the railway. Mr. -George Ward Norman and several other witnesses were called, who gave similar testimony, after which their Lordships adjourned till Monday. Room D. GLASGOW, DUMFRIES. AND CARLISLE. The Committee met to-clay at eleven o'clock, the Earl of St. Germans in the chair. Other Members 'resent, Earl Ducie, Viscount Canning, and Lord Charleville; Lord Orford absent through indisposition. •The Committee having obtained leave to sit without Lord Orford, the further examination of evidence for the opposi tion to the Bill was resumed. Mr. Collister, civil engineer, was recalled, and cross- ex amitwe by Mr. Sergeant BELL/Isis—He furnished last night' all the details respecting the estimates that bad been made. He had made the calculation from examina tion of the plans and sections of the line. The plans and sections from which he calculated the estimates were not larger than those deposed in the Parliamentary office. Taking the cutting of rock at twenty miles on the line deposited, the greatest depth was twenty-five feet, and the average was twenty-four feet. (The witness was here requested to show the mode he had adopted to arrive at the average of the cutting, and the calculation he had made of the cubical contents of the cutting, as a test of the accuracy' of his general evidence on the engineering.) There were, he said, two portions of cutting near to each other at this place on the line included in the calculation. The one cutting was twenty-five feet at its greatest depth and sloped down to no thing; the other was twenty-feet and sloped down to eighteen. He made the total of the cubical contents at 33,000 feet. That was the conclusion he bad come to from the data he had given. The cutting at the twelfth mile was 60,000 yards at one and a half to one slope. He calculated this on Thursday to be 89,000 yards of sandstone cutting, but that was a mistake. He found it out the night before last. He believed it was mixed cutting, about one third of it being sandstone. Allowing the cutting now to be a'slope of a half to one, it would bring the expense to about the same. This 89,000 yards was included in the 221,000 yards of sandstone cutting he gave the other day. The correction he had made would reduce it about 60,000. With respect to the crossing of the Crawick water, he thought a viaduct over the whole of the valley, such as he estimated, would be the best and most economical way of doing it. He was sure that Mr. Myth could not cross the water at the price he named for his bridge and embankment. There was a difference of 200/ per mile for the permanent way between Mr. Miller and him. Mr. Miller's was 5,5701. per mile, and his 5,3701.. 751. per yard was the price he assumed the rails would cost. At 701. per yard, the price per mile would be about 1761. per mile less. He was not aware that the Ayrshire Rail. way had rails of 68 lbs. per • yard; 75 lbs. was the weight used on the Grand Junction and other lines in connexion with it. ‘ Ile; .price .per,, ton_. he esti mated at 91. 108., delivered at the works. They had tried both Waifs and Staffordshire for the Caledonian line, and could not get the rails for less. Rails could be got in England for less than in Scotland. He had received a letter from a gentleman who had been sent out to inquire about the price of rails, and the lowest offer was 9L ss. per ton at the works. These were rails of an inferior character. The best were 91.155., and the carriage to Ar nan would m ake them 111. He was not aware that Mr. Blyth had also estimated them at 11/. per ton.. He was not aware that iron rails were in the course of making on the route of the line. The wittess was next examined respecting the prices he had set on the turn pike and other branches. He was not aware that bridges ou the North British line had been constructed at similar prices to those stated by Mr. Blyth. Mr. Sergeant BELLASIS was about putting a contract of the works of the North British line into witness's hands in order to examine him on the bridge estimates, when Mr. Sergeant• WRANGHAM objected to any such contract being used, as it had been executed before the passing of the Consolidated Act. The contract was accordingly withdrawn. An estimate for the execution of the works on the 1aU1111104.4, line, 400 4 1411,LieL tractor to execute the bridges on the Dumfries line, was next submitted, but this was also objected to, on the ground that it was not a contract or deed, but merely an offer to do cer tain works, which had not been as yet accepted. Witness's cross-examination continued—He had estimated the bridges in agreement with the provisions of the Consoli dated Act.. He had taken Government duty on the gross passenger traffic. He was not aware that a great proportion of the passengers would not have duty paid on them. Re-examined by Mr. Sergeant \V RANGIIAM —He had himself superintended the execution of railway works. On the Caledonian line he was under Mr. Locke. He had found it invariably the cheapest and best way to get effi cient works constructed, to let the works to responsible avid trustworthy contractors, who would sublet them and guarantee their proper execution. The calculations he had furnished to the Committee, were calculations made at leisure, with great care, which had been checked four times by four different persons. That, as compared with the hasty calculation he had made in the box at the de sire of Mr. Sergeant Bellasis, showed this difference. The carefully-made calculation of the cutting at the 20th mile was at one-and-half to one, 31,000 yards; at half to one, 22,000 yards. The hasty calculation he had made to-day at half to one was 33,000 yards. He adheredto the leisurely made calculation, and his estimate of price was founded upon it. Very little malleable iron was made in Scotland. Mr. Wilson was the principal maker of it, and his tender for rails for the Caledonian was higher than they could be sup plied for in England. Mr. Wilson was a large holder in the Caledonian line. On account of the heavy en gines now used, some companies were using rails as heavy as 80 to 90 lbs. per yard. The estimate of the portion of the ithsdale scheme, from Gretna to Dum fries, was 10,000!. a mile, or 210,0001. The Caledonian branch proposed in the Commons, from Dumfries to Gretna, was almost an identical line, and he made the cost of that 338,761/. He considered this latter a moderate estimate. With regard to the error he had made respecting the 89,000 Yards of cutting at the twentieth mile, he thought it better to make the explanation to the Committee this morning than alter the whole of the figures in the calculation, and so deface the table. The result in regard to money, however, was little different, being 1531. more than the estimate made on the first or erroneous data. Mr. Foster, civil and mining engineer,,examined—He had . had considerable experience in making railways. He had been engaged in constructing the London and Birmingham line. He was now the acting engineer on the western por tion of the Chester and Holyhead line. From his experience of making railwilYs, the mode of letting the works named Mr. Coiner with, the best one. CotblittitiOh was . not • found a good mode. On the Chester and Holyhead line they had let the works (No. 9) to a responsible man, who agreed to complete the works, with all extras, at the price named in the schedale. The work by this means, he believed, would be done cheaper than almost any line in the kingdom. He had -examined the plans and sections of the Nithsdale Company, and had gone over the country. The quantity of cutting, he con sidered, had been under-estimated 300,000 yards; and, taking similar prices as those named by Mr. Miller, there would be here a deficiency of 35,0001. The tunnel at Drumlanrig, he calculated, would cost 1'.,0001. more than the company's estimate. The estimate of masonry, he considered, propor tionably small. He was sure it would be double the sum. lie had never known a line with so little masonry, or so te. occupation bridges. Ile had also gone over Mr. Collister's estimates. With theexception orthe cuttings, which he thought estimated rather high, he generally agreed with that witness. Cm.ss-examined—lle had nut been able to go over the whole line. In examining the tunnel near Thornhill, he had been prevented going over the ground of the agent of the Duke of Buccleuch. He went along the highway from Gretna to Dumfries, and thence to Sanquhar. He was in a . carriage, and got out perhaps about three times. He-was not able to get over the exact route of the line, on account of the opposition he received. With respect to the expense of any tunnel, he could not say what it would cost without a know ledge of the strata. The works he named were on the Chaster . and Holyhead line. The contract he spoke of was about eight miles in length. The extras -he spoke of included extra bridges, and making good any defects arising from defective foundations and too thin walls. Competition was the usual way of letting large contracts, and the other works on the Cheater and Holyhead were let in that way. He considered there should have been about four times as many occupation bridges, and he should think they would cost 500/. each. He had executed no works in Scotland, but lie had in Wales. He was quite satisfied that the masonry could not be done for less than 2,0001. per mile. It was twice the amount on the Chester and Holyhead line. Re-examined—He felt firmly persuaded the masonry could never be done for 1,0001 a mile. Though he did not leave his carriage often in the journey through the country, he saw sufficient to estimate, along with the sections, what the masonry would be. He had previously been through Scotland several times before. _ .... Mr. Wood, civil engineer of the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway, gave evidence to the same effect as the previous witness. He had a good knowledge of the district which the line traversed, and he was satisfied it could not be made for the sum named by the company. He generally corrobo rated Mr. Collister's estimate. Cross-examined—He had gone over the estimates of Mr. Collister in detail, in doing which he took the quantities and character•of the works from Mr. Collister. He had executed about 100 miles of railway of the Newcastle and Carlisle and branches in that district. He was direcior of, that line of railway as well as engineer. Mr. Davidson, civil engineer, followed to the same effect. He had had experience of the works on the Grand Junction line, and had been acting-engineer of the Greenock line, on which•there had been large cuttings. He thought Mr. Mil ler's estimate too low, and Mr. Collister's fair and accurate. He agreed with what had been said respecting the advan tage of the works being let to large contractors. 'He stated this from what had taken place in the construction of the Greenock line. • Cross-examined—lle bad recebtly been engaged in con tracts, and had not laid down any railways in the present year. Ile had contracted to keep the works in repair on the Glasgow and Greenock line, and was now engaged in making a pier in Rostneath. The repairs of the permanent way on the Greenock line last year was 1501. a mile; the year before it was 24 *0- wx., &wan gifit4l2 411 _/ -t~G~/ /~ ~..._, _ .., •_......„......• _ __ , '4, • .• , ,;,..-.......,‘, ' •,...., i . . .6., 4 ... __._ .. . sli ) li r 1 ... ) '.:' ~ i ~,., . i ! 41 : 444, .: . ,4:tt, ------, 7 ---- ...

Room F the Ayrshire line represented the repair of the permanent way to cost 801. a mile, but the statement did not afford the means of testing the accuracy of these items. A pause here took place from the Committee waiting for Mr. Bidder, civil engineer, to be examined, during which, Mr. COCKBURN wished to know whether the Committee had yet decided 'upon going into the question of compe tition ? The CHAIRMAN said they wished the other evidence first to be gone into. In case that broke down, it would render the latter unnecessary. Mr. Bidder having arrived, was next examined—He said, assuming the quantities of work given by Mr. Collister to be correct, he thought his estimate fair and reasonable. He had not been over_the line. but he had gone carefully over the plans and• sections; and. he 'thought the line proposed could not cost less than 16,0001. a mile. The witness here went over a number of items in the etimates which, judg ing from the plans and sections, he considered to be much under-estimated, The effect of the answers was a corroboration of the evi dence of the previous witnesses. Cross-examined—He had not gone minutely into the detail=, and therefore he could not speak accurately of the occupation bridges. In a general estimate they could ap proximate pretty nearly to the cost of a line without going actually into details. Parliament required details to test the accuracy of the general principle. lie was not aware that the North British cost but 13,000/. a mile, or that Mr. Robert Ste phenson, on examining Mr. Miller's estimates of that line, stated they Were very ample. The Committee then adjourned till Monday at eleven o'clock.

These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of inimea curable and general utility, ter they tell of matters every living crea ture able to understanl ought to know, but which. information in these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, Is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief; it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, bat It is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our owu organization, the laws whereby our existence and the is,ue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to he in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all , by the availinent hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the like advantages on our ottSpring to follow, and finally by the cultivation If our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mini as well as the body may be exulted to the summit of perfection, as bust becomes the highest of God's creations.

The Committee met at eleven o'clock ; present, the Earl of Ripon (chairman), the Earl of Wynford, the Earl of Sondes, the Earl of Montford, and the Earl of Eldon. At the commencement of the proceedings, two witnesses were called. and gave general evidence in favour of the Warwickshire branches. Mr. IlorE addressed the Committee at some length on be half of the Warwickshire branches. Mr. TALuar having replied, the room was cleared. • On our re-admission, The CHAIRMAN delared that, in the opinion of the Com mittee, the preamble of the Birmingham and Oxford Junc tion Bill was proved. The Committee then adjourned at half past four o'clock. Rco n IL BIRMINGHAM AND GLOUCESTER BRANCHES. (HALESOWEN BRANCH.) DECISION. The Committee met this morning at eleven o'clock, Lord Strafford in the chair. Mr. lIII.DvAan opened the case on the part of the pro mcters. The object of the Bill was simply to construct a branch from the Birmingham and Gloucester Rail way at King's-Norton, iu the county of Worcester, Halesowen, which is situated in the midst of an important mineral district in the same county. The length would be 5 1 A miles, and its cost 130,0001. 'Mr. Best, a gentleman connected with the district, gave evidence to show that great advantage would result from the construction of the branch, by giving an easy and speedy means of transit for coals to Droitwich and other places on the line and contiguous to it. Mr. M'Connell, supelintendent of the locomotive depart ment of the Birmingham and Gloucester, said he resided at Bromsgrove, where the locomotive station of the line was situated, and that he used a great quantity of coal there, and that the Halesowen coal would be much in request at that and other places south of Bromsgrove, if the branch were made, as it would cheapen their cost. It would bring a great deal of new traffic on the main line, and would place Cheltenham, which consumed a quantity of coal, within forty miles of this great mineral distritt. M ?.. Matthews, land agent to Lord Middleton, through whose property the line would run for three miles and a half, stated that his Lordship assented to the line, and tha it would be advantageous. _ Mr. Lluniphrey, the proprietor of a Halesowen colliery, gave evidene in favour of the line. Mr. Evans, proprietor of salt-works at Droitwitcb, said the consumption of coal in the salt-works there, 42xceecled '2,000 'tons a week, -a great- portien- .of which came from "Halesowen and that district, but which would be used in geater quantities if the line were made. Much interruption was frequently caused to the works on account of the delay in getting coals at the present moment. The cost of coals would be materially reduced, which would have the effect of increasing the trade, by c'..eapening the cost of manufacture. Mr. Sturge, an extensive corn merchant at Gloucester, considered that the salt traffic would be considerable. Mr. Berkeley, an engineer, had laid down the line under the direction of Mr. Robert Stephenson. Its length was five miles and a half, its cost 130,0004. and the steepest gradient 1 in 64 for one mile and five-eighths. It had a tunnel of 960 yards in length, which would cost 39,0004 There were gradients of 1 in 64 on main lines which had a great amount of traffic, and; therefore, could not be fairly objected to in a branch, as it could be worked without inconvenience. Unless the line had this gradient, the cost of its construction would be quite disproportionate to the revenue which the Company expected to derive from its construction.,There would be some passenger traffic. This closed the case on the part of the promoters. Sir T. PmLiars addressed the Cominittee against the branch, on behalf of the petitioners, and contended that the o—c a, a it ali:,..saalipcUll Jutclbt,i.cta <a Wt.*, important part of the mineral oi,trict than the portion more contiguous to iialesowen, and therefore did away with the necessity for any additional line, and called ou the Commit tee to reject the preamble of the Bill. _ _ _ The ammittee having passed the preamble of the Bill, the clauses, with some additions respecting the property of certain petitioners, were agreed to; and the Chairman hav ing stated that he should report their favourable decision to the House, the Committee separated. HOUSE OF COMMONS. GROUP LXVII. This Committee re-assembled at the customary hour this morning in Room 22 (Grand Corridor), Lord Lincoln in the chair. SOUTH-EASTERN (PROM HIINGERFORD- BRIDGE TO GREENWICH). Mr. Cubitt, engineer, was heard in opposition to the line which he said appeared to involve considerable difficulties, was badly laid out, and required a careful revision. Mr. Drew, clerk to the trustees of the Bermondsey, Rother hithe, and Bedford Roads, was also called, for the purpose of showing the great injury to those roads by the line which it was proposed should cross them. The thoroughfares were most important, and the trustees were decidedly opposed to the Bill. This having closed the evidence on the part of the op ponents, Mr. AUSTIN, Q C. (who appeared for the Croydon Railway Company), said he hoped he had shown the Committee that the Bill ought not to pass daring the present session. He submitted that the whole of the subject of extensions and junctions of the Metropolitan Railway ought to have been referred to the decision of a Committee of the House of Commons. A question of such considerable importance as allowing this Company to make a viaduct of four miles length, by which fifty metropolitan streets, and three turnpike reads would be passed over, could not be fully considered by the present Committee. The plan altogether was bad, and most expensive, as Mr. Cubitt had shown, and he submitted that his proposal, that the Committee should decline deciding upon this important question in the last week or fortnight of the session, and postone -the matter till the next session was but fair and reasonable. The Learned Counsel having concluded his addresF, 'Mr. MERREVVETHER replied on behalf of the promoters of the Bill. He submitted that little attention should be paid by the Committee to the evidence of Mr. Cubitt, because it was only on the previous day that he had seen the plans of the company, -and, .he.could not, therefore, be supposed to be •ftilly acquainted with the merits or demerits of it. His Learned Friend had opposed the Bill on behalf of the Croydon Company, but he (Mr. Merrewether) hoped that the Committee would consider that that Company had no ground of opposition to the Bill, because this Company had proposed to insert in their Bill a clause which would enable the Croydon Company to form a junction with the line proposed. The secret of their opposition to this scheme was their wish to prevent this Company having a western exten,ion, so that they might monopolise the whole of the traffic of that district Now he submitted that such a reason ought. not to induce the Committee to decide against this scheme. The Learned Counsel having concluded his reply, the room was ordered to be cleared. On our re-admission, after the lapse of a few minutes, The Noble CHAIRMAN said the Comm ittee had resolved that the preamble was not proved, and they had desired him to intimate that in coming to that determination they do not de sire to express any opinion adverse to a west-end eXtenssion. Mr. lERZWETHEII,—For the South-Eastern Company? The Noble CHAIRMAN—Quite so. LONDON AND SOIJTB•WESTERN (LONDON.. MUDGE EXTENSION"). The report on this. Bill (the preamble of which was de clared to be proved on the previous day) wai then adopted, after which the Committee adjourned till Monday. FRIDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE. ST. JAMES'S-PALACE, JULY 24.

COILATWAX.I. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition.) Mr. COCKBURN followed on the same side, directing his observations to the alleged imperfections of the line, its circuitous route and low levels, and the opposition offered to it by the population of the district through which it passed. Mr. Sergeant KINGLAKE replied, and dwelt at great length on the decision of the House of Commons with respect to this Bill. He said this Bill had been there discussed three times, and had each time received the approbation of the Commit tees of the Houses of Parliament. Mr. Brunel had told them that, in laying down this line the great object of the promoters had been to accommodate the district through which they passed, and that district, namely, about St. Austell acid Truro, was inferior to none in importance in population. The Learned Gentleman then went over a large portion of the evidence which he contended was conclusive of the merits of the line, and was proceeding when the room was cleared. The CHAIRMAN, on our re-admission, said, that the Com mittee would postpone their decision on the preamble for the purpose of hearing the clause of amendment which it was proposed to introduce into the Bill. Mr. Sergeant KINGLAKE said that he had no clause to propose. Mr. HUME then proposed that in the 28th section of the Act there should be inserted a clause to specify the point to which the railway at Bodmin should be allowed to come, and also to provide against any injury that might be done to the town by the cutting off of the water. Mr. Sergeant KINGLAKE called attention to the general Act by which companies were boundito construct their works with as little detriment to public and private property as possible. The clauses having been formally proposed, The Committee decided that the first, relating to the car rying of the railway to Bodmin, should be referred to the engineer, and that the latter, with reference to the water, was provided for by the general Act, and that the preamble was proved. WEST CORNWALL. Mr. TALBOT opened the case fur the promoters of this Bill, and stated the expense of the project was 500,000!., and that it was supported by the greater number of the proprietorr along the line. Some of the petitions against the Bill had been withdrawn, and the remaining petitions were of a very animportant character, it being a curious fact that among the names appended to these letters, there was not a single proprietor, they all being occupiers. There was a petition on their Lordships table, front every inhabitant along the line, from Truro to the Land's End, in favour of the BM. Some evidence es to tragic having been heard, the Com reittee adjournied. - • Rcom C. SOUTH EASTERN (CHART BRANCH). The Committee re-assembled this morning, the Earl of Devon in the chair. Mr. ALEXANDER opened at very considerable length, and stated that this was a branch of the South Eastern Company to the village of Chart, so as to form a communication through going on by Seven Oaks and Tunbridge Wells, and_ , w oo o o u l l q d not be anything the middle portion of Kent, ,-o as to cut off the large angle at Red Hill, was a tunnel of consi derableould be a rise a connexion would then be made direct witahodAshof:ordo.gioTeehre. w liii • ik h ge i d l i e ni ffi c s u o o s it) t tell tr o e ian f eb: t i : et : 1:: loi,unrgeibni The chief cc oi l awni l re d shpti .idbecoe.aehfrraletb,dhiteoehm,Ofeo there the l l, 23 , 0 00 i. a mile, while that from both ends, the gradient upon each incline to the apex would be one in eighty.
