The public opening of the line from Totnes to Lairs, 211 miles, took place on Friday.

After breakfast at the Se ven S tars and Seymour's Hotels, the company assembled at the Totnes station. Among these present were—Sir Thomas Fellowes. Sir Anthony Butler, Colonel Harris, Mr. T. Woolcornbe, Mr. Brown, Mr. R. Cole, Mr. Derry, Mr. C. C. Whiteford, Mr. W. Carr, the Mayors of Plymouth, Devonport, and Totnes ; Messrs. Rundle and Gribble, of Tavistock; Archdeacon Froude; the Rev. John Hatchard. of Plymouth ; Mr. Gibbs and Mr. Fripp, of Bristol; Mr. Sillifant, the high Sheriff of the county ; Mr. Brunel, Mr. Samuda, Mr. Hernmett, &c., and a great number of ladies. To ac commodate those assembled about nine carriages were provided, and these being attached to the Cancer engine, under charge of Mr. Rea, of the South Devon Railway, and vves t t e h r e n H P i a s i c l e w s a , y w , o l r e k r t e d t h e b y T . u l t l n r e . s G a o t a u t el i : ) , ofthe n at 10 G3BAre,ait. From the high land of Dartmoor, in the centre of South Devon, to the sba-side, the country is traversed with ridges of hills, which gradually diminish as they ap• proach the water's edge. Between these hills are several deep vales which originate the rivers Erme, Te i g n, Dart, Plyrn, &c. To cut through the high land and cross these vales with a railroad is a formidable work for any engineer; all present in the train on Friday 8 1 1- peered to be perfectly satisfied with the great talent and ingenuity displayed by Mr. Brunel in overcooling the natural difficulties of the undertaking. Shortly after leaving Totnes, the road enters the Marley tunnel, about 800 yards in length, cut through the grounds of Lady Carew. It then trends towards the north, and at Brent is within half a mile of Dartmoor. Between Brent and Glase is the station of Wrangerton, selected for the convenient approach of the projected branch from Kings bridge. - By curved viaduqa.l ol 4.4l44 100 feet, high, and foimed " of `heavy bilks of timber laid across massive moorstone pi ers , th e r oad crosses the valleys of Giese, Ivybridge, Blatchford, and Slade. From these portions of the line, looking down the vales towards the sea, the country presents a most de- lightful appearance, and all sense of the supposed danger on the viaducts is lost in admiration of the picturesque scenery. After passing Ivybridge the village of Cole brook and Underwood are approached, and thence the road falls into the lower roads of &thrum, the seat of the Earl of Morley. Crossing the upper stream of the Laira, the line approaches the western coast, and then, skirting the land under Crabtree, it winds through the waters of the Lairs., and passes under the embankment which protects the turnpike-road from the encroachments of the sea; it then debouches into the new station con structed in front of the Lairs cottages. Here the train greeted on a Totnes in forty-five v es e . vparrived at 23 min u t es p as t eleven A.m., having run from minut h it a s b n it e a a n r t i s ng ni Cr r a l b s t na re n e n a th n , d Lairs by thousands of the in large maj o rity o f w h om h a d never before seen a rail wa y train in moti o n.

At present there was a decided split among the Chartists of Lancashire, owing to the recent conduct of Mr. O'Connor. The delegates then resumed the consideration of the report of the organization committee, and after a long discussion, resolved to appoint, provisionally, twenty commissioners, whose appointments have all to be sub jest to the confirmation of the country. The election of the commissioners occupied the As sembly until half -past one o'clock, when it adjourned until three. • In the course of the morning proceedings, Mr. Briggs, of Sheffield, and one or two other delegates, stated that the people were getting dissatisfied with -their proceed recalled ng d t s, ma their ho o they mes.. .. were expecting almost d a il y to be CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. . _ The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was steady. Sales 5,000 bales. Railway Shares, although in but limited request, had a tendency to advance. The Belgian aed other Continental papers received to-day contain no news of particular interest. The want of specie for the payment of wages was felt as a great inconrenience by the inanutacturers who had me morialized the Goverement to order the payment in specie of the notes of the Societe Generale where the ob ject was to distribute the amount among workmen. Another arrival from the Cape of Good !lope gives us dates three days later than those already to hand. There is no political news of in tei est. The excellent precautions adopted to ensure - the tranquillity of the frontier were proving most elfec , ual, for even cases of stealing were become rare. The Kafirs, indeed, are Ilely now to be organized into useful communities, and-to be taught more effectually the arts of peace.

IRELAND. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. THE QUEEN V. MITCHEL. DUBLIN, MONDAY, MAY B.—This case, specially fixed for argument, was called on at the sitting of their Lordships. The Attorney-General and Messrs. Whiteside, Q.C., Henn, Q.C., Baldwiti, Q.C., and Perrin, appeared fur the Crown ; Sir Colman O'Loghlen, and Messrs. Holmes and O'llagen for the traverser. Mr. Mitchell WAS seated at the side bar. The case upon the information for publishing the letter to Lord Clarendon, as "her Majesty's butcher general for Ireland," was first proceeded with. Mr. PERRIN, for the Crown, in support of the de murrer, shortly stated the nature of the motion. He said the Attorney-General had filed an ex officio in formation against the traverser, who put in a plea to the ..ffect, that the court could not take cognisance of that information, because within the same time an indictment had been found against him by the grand jury upon the same charge —upon which indictment he had been duly arraigned—to which he had pleaded—and which, after such plea by the traverser, had been abandoned by the Crown. Among other causes of demurrer, it was specially demurred, that the plea was bad, on the ground of uncertainty, as it.did not appear whether it was a plea in bar or in abatement. He argued that the plea was had, even if the indictment was pending, and that if it were not bad, all objection was removed by the nollo prosequi. Sir C. O'LOGRLEN, for the traverser, submitted that upon the record as it stood, there was, in point of fact, a discontinuance, and that, therefore, the Crown, was out of court and must commence proceedings de novo. Mr. BOLDIES followed on the same side. ( Ireland) Great North of England 100 ...... Ditto, New, 401 Ditto, New, 30/ ......... 30 Ditto, New, 151......... 11 1 ,4 6..

After proceeding upwards of two miles, having passed through a tunnel, it was discovered the carriage referred to was off the rails, and the train was Stopped. The gentlemen in the next carriage, a first-class one, were for a considerable time in the greatest alarm, having discovered the cause of the fear fill jolting and clouds of gravel, &c., which was conse quently occasioned, long before the servants in charge of the train did. After a delay of an hour and a half, the passengers were taken into the. foremost carriage, the others being left behind, in consequence of the second-class carriage being se much damaged. One gentleman, from jumping out before . the train was stop ped, was much hurt about the shoulders. The above is another instance of the absolute necessity of some means being adopted w hereby passengers may commu nicato with the guards, as our correspondent was fully aware of the great danger of his situation some minutes before the officials discovered it. It is but right to men tion that the servants of the company acted in the matter with the greatest attention. SHOCKING OCCURRENCE.—This morning a shock ins occurrence took place in Little St. Thomas the Apostle : a man named William Page, a book marbler, Sx., residing at No. 1, having thrown himself out of a window on the third story. He had been ill for a con siderabk, time, and his mind was affected. On bring taken up he was found to be dreadfully injured, and was conveyed to the hospital, where not the slightest hopes were given of his recovery. THE BODY or A MURDERED CHILD SENT BY THE _PARCELS DELIVERY.—On Thursday evening a small wicker-basket was brought to the Parcels Delivery Company's Office, in Middleton-street, Clerkenwell, by .a respectable-looking young woman, who paid the car riage; it was addresed to the relieving-officer, Holborn Union, Gray's Inn-lane, where it was delivered in due course, and on being opened the body of a male child about three days old was discovered, in a shocking state of decomposition. On Saturday an inquest was held on the body, before Mr. Mills, at the board-room of the Holborn Union, when, in accordance with the medical evidence, the jury returned a verdict of wilful murder against some person unknown. Mr. A. Moxhel, the Consul General of Belgium for New York, arrived in London yesterday morning, by the General Steam Navigation Company's steam-ship Soho, from Antwerp. ___ — Ditto, Thirds Hull and Selby .. ...... 50 -......— Ditto, Half Shares ... 25 ..... -- Ditto, 1 4 Shares - Ipswich& Bury St. Edm. 17%...... ..

DESTRUCTION BY FIRE OF BITTON PAPER MILLS.—BRISTOL, MAY B.—An express messenger arrived in this city yesterday, from Bitton, Gloucester. shire, soliciting the assistance of the fire-engines of the different offices, in consequence of the breaking out of a fire in the extensive paper mills in that village, known as Bevans's Mills. The engines were dispatehtd to the spot, as were others from the more immediately adjacent town of Keynsham, but all efforts to arrest the progress 1 of the fire proved unavailing, which was not extinguished till the entire building and all the valuable machinery were reduced to a heap of ruins. There was a large stock of paper in the store-room, of which a good deal was got out comparatively uninjured. The jp remises and stock were both insured in the Sun sod Imperial offices.

The principles of the Hygeian theory are contained in the follow ing propositions :- 1. The vital principle is contained in the blood. 2. Everything in the body is derived from the blood. 3. All constitutions are radically the same. 4. All diseases arise from the impurity of the blood, or, in other words, from acrimonious humours lodged in the body. 5. This humour, which degenerates the blood, has three sources —the maternine, the contagious, and the personal. 6. Disease and pain have the same origin, and may therefore be considered synonymous terms. 7. Purgation by proper vegetable purgatives is the only effectual mode of eradicating disease. B. Experience of upwards of twenty years has amply proved MO RISON'S VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL MEDICINES to. be such proper vegetable purgative. 9. From the intimate connexion subsisting between mind and body, the health of the one must conduce to the serenity of the other. A 1 K 1 A u. E. LM. One half the wend are desolately single ) and the other supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em 4itter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un comprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, end broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set dement. Honour and justice demaad that health should form an item In the compaot ; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

Shame and the dread so rrequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seekh v or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, l ie forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the ceases of liseave, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the Inedical man who can show by his posse.sion of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profea sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended.
