T HE WINTER COAT AID THE SUMMER COAT. - A winter coat and one for summer weather Were heard the other day, in chat together. " Pray can you tell me (said the Winter Dress) Why I am daily noticed less and less ? A short time back (as no one disbelieves) I and my master were as thick as thieves' On all occasions he would put me on, And say I made him look a downright don;' And often would my master condescend To designate me as his faithful friend. But things are alter'd now. What shall I do ? I cannot tell the reason, Sir, can you ?" " Yes (said the other), I have got your place ; There's nothing more than common in your case. Our master read of MOSES" summer wrapper a, And knowing they were nothing short of cappers, He went to MOSES 'newly open'd Mart, And purchas'd one particularly smart. I am the very coat he bought of MOSES. You see what style my modern make discloses. MOSES and SON have pleas'd him so, with me, That you are quite forgotten, don't you see ? Besides, I'm suited to the summer sea , on, And that's, of course, a most important reason. The cold of winter now is tar remote, And hence our master needs a summer coat."

I resolved on having another, and ob tained another bottle, and, before the whole of which was used, I had, and have now, as handsome a head of hair as ever man en joyed, and I earnestly recommend all who have not tried this most excellent Oil, will not fail to do so.

The newspaper the intellectual life of the nineteenth century. Not to speak of the moral and political safeguards which it affords, it places all, whatever their varieties of position, on a level as to in formation. Only by its means is the small capitalist enabled to con tend successfully against his wealthy rival for a knowledge of those changes which affect prices. Without the daily newspaper a family might as well be located in the back settlements of Canada as within ten miles of the great centre of European civilisation. These facts are felt—the gain is understood. It is remarkable, then, that more than a century since there were eighteen papers published in London, daily, or three times a week—while now there are only fifteen ! though the population has trebled, and, by means of the post and other facilities, the whole kingdom has been brought within the easy range, and under the direct influence, of the London press. In the city of New York more dallypapers are published than in all England, Scotland, and Ireland, put together. The circulation of papers in Paris exceeds that of London twenty-fold. Of a fact so startling, where lies the explanation P—Price 1 That the public know the advantage of having a Daily Paper, is manifest from the thousands who pay 3d. for a paper the day after publication. What, then, are the causes which maintain the high price? First, the amount of capital required to be invested in a Newspaper speculation. Next, the various talent, knowledge, and experience which must combine to produce the result. The number and greatness of the requirements have, in truth, occasioned some thing very like a monopoly—and monopoly always commands its own price. Thus, whilst capital and competition have been doing good its n London service in all other things, nothing has been attempted, in the direc tion indicated, for the political, social, and intellectual wants of three great nations; and a Daily Paper still remains a costly luxury, i n which only the wealthy can indulge. Daily Newspaper, The experimenton h i s nowte highest about t o scale b e triedof completeness of establishing iingn a all Lo de partments, which shall look for support, not to comparatively few readers at a high price, but to many at a low price. Its success de pends upon the Public. THE DAILY NEWS, From and after the Ist of June, Will be published at TWOPENCE HALFPENNY. The paper will be of the same size as all other journals were within seven years; it will be larger than many of the high•priced daily journals are now ; and, in every particular of interest, it will con tain as much information as the most successful amongst its contem poraries. But it will be expansive : and double sheets will be given whenever an important Debate, or a pressure of News or Advertise ments, seems to require it. The marking features of our scheme are, Ist. We give to the reader, in what we hope will be an improved and more convenient form, all that he can find in the most approved of our competitors; enlarging always our surface to embrace whatever of unusual inte rest the times may present. The difference between them and us will be only in that host of Advertisements, which we, too, will be happy to give in an additional sheet, whenever the publlc shall supply us with the occasion. 2ndly. To the reader who now pays Fivepence for his paper, we offer the same thing at half the price; and to the man who hires his paper, a paper of his own at about the cost of the hire. It, then, only remains for the public to justify the experiment ; remembering that their interest in the issue is no less than our own. Let him who would support us in the seasonable attempt subscribe without delay. Every news agent will, we hope, supply the paper at twopence halfpenny, where payment is made in advance ; the same propor tionate allowance as with other papers —something more than twenty-four per cent.—being allowed by the proprietors to the trade. When credit is given, it is a matter of private arrangement, with which the proprietors have nothing to do. As, however, in an undertaking so bold and so novel, it is advisable to guard against possible inconvenience, the proprietors of THE DAILY NEWS will undertake to get all persons supplied who shall forward a post-office order payable to Joseph Smith, Daily News Office, Whitefriars, London.

J. J. HOPE JOHNSTONE, Chairman. JOHN MARR, Secretary. 28, Parliamentostreet, Westminster, May 14, 1846. CALEDONIAN EXTENSION RAILWAY. V The Committee of Management have the satisfaction of an nouncing to the Shareholders, that the Bill for incorporating the Company having passed Standing Orders, has been introduced into the House of Commons, and will be forwarded through Parliament with the least possible delay. A Meeting of the Shareholders has been called, in accordance with the Sessional Orders recently passed by both Houses of Parliament, at which It is necessary that one-third of the capital of the Company should be represented. Shareholders who are unable to be present are requested to lodge their Scrip with any of the following parties, who will give a receipt for the same, and return the Scrip after it has been produced to the Meeting, viz.:— Mr. John Marr, Secretary to the Company, 28, Parliament-street, Westminster ; Messrs. Hope and Oliphant, W. S., Princes-street, Edinburgh; Messrs. Grahame, 3laxwell, and Co., St. Vincent-street, Glasgow. In consequence of the works being now limited to the Western Extension, the Directors will be enabled either to reduce the amount of the shares or to restrict the sum to be called upon each to a very considerable extent. The project, as now limited, consists, first, of the Branch from Lesmahagow to the Clydesdale Junction Railway at Hamilton, opening a direct communication from the most valuable mineral held in the West of Scotland to the city of Glasgow, from which a very large return may be expected, as:the gas coal of Lesmahagow is well known for its superior quality, and for that description of coal there is now an unlimited demand for exportation, as well as for home consumption. The funds already in the hands of the Di rectors will be applied, in the first instance, to the construction of this line. The other portions of the line will open a direct communication in conjunction with the Caledonian Railway from the important town and neighbourhood of Ayr, with Edinburgh on one hand, and Carlisle and the manufacturing districts of England on the other. These lines also pass through extensive mineral fields, and the local traffic will be considerable, but the Directors do not look on the im mediate formation of these works as equally pressing, inasmuch as the traffic cannot be completely developed until after the com pletion of the Edinburgh branch of the Caledonian Railway. Under these circumstances it will not be necessary to press incon ♦eniently on the shareholders by early or frequent calls. A question will come before the meeting as to the propriety of inserting, a clause in the Bill, authorising the Directors to allow in terest on the amount pf calls from the date of payment. J. J.

A brief history of the Gauge question—The modern form of Rail ways originated by George Stephenson—Uniformity of Gauge* (I. e. of width of each pair of rails from each other) required to render Railways as free as common roads—Question—shall the Gauge be adapted to the Engine, or the Engine to the Gauge?—Projection of the Broad or Seven-feet Gauge on Great Western Railway—Robert Stephenson reports against it, to Directors of Rail—Objections theo retical and practical—Consequent abandonment of joint station at Euston-square for the two Companies—Disjunction to be regretted— Shareholders alarmed by expense of making Great Western road— consul, Mr. Nicholas Wood and Mr. Hawkshaw—they report against 7 feet, and in favour of 4 feet 8% inches—lntermediate Gauge of 5 feet adopted by Mr. Braithwaite for Eastern Counties—aame Gauge adopted for Northern and Eastern by R. Stephenson to preserve uniformity—both reduced to prevailing Narrow Guage, with Mr. Braithwaite's approbation, to secure uniformity with Northern lines —Fh st case of Break of Gauge, on junction of two Railways of diffe rent widths, at Gloucester—Evils brought about by break of Gauge —Compels a transfer of passengers from Broad Carriage to Narrow, and from Narrow to Broad—like the old stage coach system —com pels transfer of private carriages —of horses and cattle—of mineral ore and coal—unpacking of merchandise—repacking—difficulty with cattle—breakage with merchandise—pilferage—injury to coal—delay and expense—a Break of Gauge a barrier to trade like a Custom House—a tax of time—a tax of money—all taxes paid by the public —Birmingham Manufacturers agitate against Break of Gauge—Me morialise the Board of Trade—Mr. Wyndham Harding's pamphlet— Opinion of—from education—from experience of the two systems —as an eye-witness of the effects of the Break, a competent witness on the effects of Break, and on comparative value of the two Gauges— he prefers Narrow Gauge as being, at least, as safe—as speedy —more convenient to commercial public—cheaper to make and to work Board of Trade report in favour of 4 feet 8% inches or Narrow Gauge —Uniformity of Gauge advocated by men of all parties in Parliament—Motion for Commission to investigate Break and merits Of the two systems made, by Lord Dalhousie in the Lords, and Mr. Cobden in the Commons—Unanimously voted—Commissioners report in favour of Uniformity of Gauge and of the National (4 feet 8% inches) Gauge. ANALYSIS OF Evanlicz.—Narrow Gauge in England in proportion of nine miles to one of Broad Gauge—Narrow Gauge universal—in France—in Belgiam—in Brunswick—in Saxony—in Bavaria—in Italy —in the United States.— Messrs. Brathwaite, Bidder, Fernihongh, Hawkshaw, Locke, M'Connell, Rastrick, Stephenson, N. Wood, and E. Woods—Engineers, all in favour of Narrow Gauge and Uni formity ; —Messrs. Bruyeres, Creed, Ellis, Harding, Huish, Hudson, Laws, Sand , rs—Railway Managers, all in favour of Narrow Gauge and Uniformity ;—Messrs. Bass, Chaplin, Horne, Hayward, Jones — Carriers, and Messrs. Brown and Budd—Welsh Miners, all in favour of Narrow Gauge and Uniformity ; —Generals Gordon and Burgoyne in favour of National Uniformity. Mr. Isambard Kingdom Brunel, Engineer of the Great Western Railway ; Mr. Charles Alexander Saunders, Secretary of the Great Western Railway; Mr. Seymour Clark, Manager; and Mr. Daniel Gooch, Locomotive Superintendent of the Great Western Railway, in favour of the Broad Gauge and the Break of Gauge.

A Great Fact in favour of National Uniformity—Continental Philosophers, and England's Wealth—concluding Remarks—Abridgment of Evi dence, arranged under separate heads—Narrow Gauge Witnesses— Intermediate Witnesses—Broad Gauge Witnesses. POINTS ESTABLISHED BY THE EVIDENCE TAKEN BE FORE THE GAUGE COMMISSIONERS. The Broad Gauge only suitable to certain districts—this fact ad mitted by Brunel—with Broad Gauge Break of Gauge inevitable —Remedies for Break of Gauge proposed by Mr. Brunel—loose boxes—loose bodies to carriages—narrow carriages to be carried on broad trucks—Paddington lifting machine—Loose box system tried on Liverpool and Manchester Railway —at Bolton at Erewash—at Newcastle-on-Tyne, always failed in practice—Pad dington lifting a machine, a toy—would not answer in prac tice—a narrow carriage on broad trucks would make 200 per cent. dead weight—Evidence overwhelming in favour of Narrow Gauge and Uniformity—Obstruction, such as Break of Gauge, de feats the object of Railways and of Roads—continuous traffic. Break of Gauge prevents competition—protects great lines at public expense —obstructs tree trade at home—diversity of Gauge contrary to common sense—prejudicial to the ultimate interests of the country employing it—Broad Gauge approved by no Engineer in England or America, except its projector Mr. Brunel—Narrow Gauge supported by all practical Engineers in the world—A Gauge, eleven inches and a half narrower than the Narrow Gauge, found safe, economical, and profitable, between Ghent and Antwerp —Narrow Gauge En gines have taken from Gloucester loads the Broad Gauge En gines could not move—Mr. Brunel admits sixty miles an hour at tainable with perfect safety on the Narrow Gauge—more than any Road will bear, and more than is practically accomplished on any Railway on any Gauge—Mr. Brunel has adopted Narrow Gauge on Taff Vale Railway, and on Italian Railways. Dead weight on Broad Gauge enormous—two tons of waste Weight to half a ton carried by Narrow Gauge—nine passengers in a carriage with seventy-two seats—the result, high fares and change of carriages at every Junc tion. Broad Gauge big trucks—no accommodation for farmers —too wide for Mining Districts—local traffic neglected on Broad Gauge lines—broad truck requires broader load to fill than Small Stations can supply —more men to move than a small Station can afford. What should a Railway be? powerful, punctual, economical, and swift—the Narrow Gauge can draw a thousand tons of merchandize - the the Narrow GaugeNarrow Gauge ca can run sixty miles an hour with passengers— n travel thr ugh all mining districts— The Narrow Gauge can carry the largest loads carriers ever t•end— 'l he Narrow Gauge goods' waggon, seven f e et wide, is wider by two feet than the widest waggon used on common roads. The Broad Gauge costs more money to make—far more to keep in repair —carries far more unprofitable loads in passengers and in goods, and conse quently charges far more for the work done. By the Broad Gauge the West of England cat off from the rest of Eng land—its local traffic undeveloped, its hamlets, its agriculturists neglected. Broad Gauge charges exclude coal from the West —high price coal excludes steam —steam excluded excludes manufactures — Coal and manufactures the wealth of England. The Break of Gauge weakens the national defences —punctual celerity, the soul of modern warfare—steam on land the true mode of repelling steam on sea.
