SOLNITOR—WiIIiam Keary, Esq., Stoke-upon-Trent. . . _ This line is projected to afford adequate railway accommodation to the Staffordshire Potteries. Proceeding along the Pottery Valley in a northwardly direction, the line will tbrm a junction at Crewe with the three Railways that diverge from that point ; whilst an arm to be extended from the principal line after it has passed through . Ilare castle Hill, and to pe carried •by 'Way of Congleton to Macclesfield, will connect it with the Manchester and Birmingham Railway at that place. Thus to the North it will present the best and most direct communication, in connexion with railways now established. or in course of construction, with Manchester and the manufacturing towns of Lancalffre - arid l'orkShire ; with the Port of Liverpool and the North of England and Scotland ; and through Chester with the in tended new Docks at Birkenhead, and also with the Port of Holyhead and the mineral district of North Wales. At its Southern extremity , the line will unite at or near Colwich with the Trent . Valley Rail way, for which (having received the sanction of the P.oard of Trade) application is being made to - Parliament in the present session; and thus afford the best access by that line and the London and Birming ham Railway to the Metropolis and all the South of England ' • and likewise by the intended Alrewas Branch of the Trent Valley Rail way to Derby and the agricultural counties to the eastward. A short branch out of the main line at Stone will be carried into the Grand Junction Railway at Norton Bridge, which will maintain the com munication with the county town of Stafford, with Birmingham and the populous mining district in its neighbourhood, and with the Porta of Gloucester and Bristol as well as the south-west of England. By the projected line,, then, it is obvious that the Potteries will be placed In a position the most favourable as regards the advantages of railway communication. The distance from thence; to London will be reduced to 145 miles (less than by the old coach road) ; whilst Birmingham will he brought. within 45 miles, Liverpool via Warrington within 58 miles, Birkenhead within 49 miles, and Man chester within 37 miles of the Potteries - . • The claim of this district to improved railway accommodation has long been recognised, and is now pretty generally adthitted ; and various schemes have been brought forward from time to time with the view of affording it. In 1837 two rival Manchester companies each projected and rip- . plied to Parliament to construct a line of railway through the Pot teries, which would afford the best and most direct communication between Manchester and London. In the Committee of the House of Commons the two companies were amalgamated, and an Act was passed authorising the Manchester and Birmingham Railway Com pany to construct a line from Manchester through the Potteries to join the Grand Junction at Chcbsey, near Stafford, with a branch to Crewe. The main line, after being marked out and the works actu ally commenced, was finally abandoned ; and the result was the con struction merely of the existing line from Manchester to Crewe. • In consequence of the powers conferred by that Act not having been carried out, the Potteries have been left in their present (lest!. tote condition in regard to railway accommodation ; and It is to supply this deficiency, so grievouslyfelt and lamented, that the line now submitted to the public is brought forward. The rcheme embraces altogether about fifty miles of railway, and the proposed capital is amply sufficient for its construction. The Valley of the Trent, which the line will pursue for the entire distance between Colwich and the Potteries, it is well known presents unusual facilities for the formation of a railway; and the nature of that part of the country is such as not to, require, in any Matinee, a gradient exceeding sixteen feet in a mile. On the portion.of the line between Hare Castle and Crewe, although the gradients will be less favourable, they are not of a character to offer any impediment to the economical and efficient working of the line. Before the Parliamentary Committee, which inquired into the . alle gations of the petitioners for the Bill in 1837, it was proved that the exports and imports from and into the Potteries in earthenware and its raw materials, coals, ironstone, and other merchandise, amounted to 328,000 tons per annum, or after this rate of nearly 1,000 tons daily. Since that time the mines of ironstone, which abound in the Pottery districts, have been more extensively worked, a large quan tity of which is calcined on the spot, and then transported elsewhere to be smelted, whilst several furnaces have been established in the district for the smelting of iron, and thus a considerable increase has taken placedn that source of traffic. In respect 1 coats :wed earthen ware also, an increased and increasing traffic may fairly be calcu lated upon. As regards passenger traffic, from the inconvenience and obstruc tion to which it has been subject, in consequence of having to travel by a hilly road a mean distance of eight miles to the nearest station on the Grand Junction Railway, it is difficult to form any correct estimate ; but it may suffice for the present to state, that the district which the projected line will traverse between Colwich and Crewe and Hare Castle and Macclesfield, comprising the towns of Stone, Newcastle-under-Lyme, the Potteries, and Congleton, embraces a population of upwards of 160,000. Independently, however, of any local traffic, it may confidently be anticipated that a large proportion of the traffic from London and the South to Liverpool and Holyhead will flow in the channel which this line will provide for it ; and it must necessarily command the great bulk of the Manchester traffic, inasmuch as it will place that capital of the cotton district within 181 miles of London; and, taking gradients and distances both into comparison, will constitute in every way the most perfect communication between those all important places. The projected line therefore, whether it is regarded as a link in the great chain of railways which will connect the Metropolis by the best and shortest route with Manchester, as well as with Liverpool and Holyhead ; or as offering the fullest measure of railway accommoda tion to a populous district, entitled thereto, no less from being the principal seat of the earthenware manufacture, than fl'om the valu able mineral products with which it abounds, and now destitute of the advantages of that rapid means of transport which railways sup ply—is manifestly one of great - national importance, and cannot fail to afford an ample return on the capital invested. Due notice will be given when and where applications are to be made for shares. VAUXHALL COMPOSITE CANDLES, Bs. 6d. per doz. PRICE'S PATENT CANDLES, 10s. 6d. per doz.

" Mr. HALSE, late of this county, but now of 5, Pelham crescent, Brompton, London, has lately published a pamphlet on MEDICAL GALVANISM, the contents of which have really asto nished us. If it be true that galvanism can accomplish such cures as are there stated, the galvanic apparatus must take as commanding a position over medical science as the steam-engine does over mecha nical science. It is true that galvanism has long been resorted to as a remedial agent, but the old form of batteries were so uncertain in their action as to almost do as much harm as they did good. Mr. Heise, like a true philosopher, conceived that it may be possible after to select the good and discard the evil e ff ects of the apps, and years of intense study he has accomplished what he desired—viz., to regulate the power of the galvanic apparatus to the greatest nicety. We consider this to rank as the greatest improvement which has ever been made in the galvanic battery. In the pamphlet we noticed an extract from the Shipping and Mercantile Gazette' of March 14. We extract this article for the benefit of invalids Our readers may have noticed several extracts we have given from Mr. Halse's pamphlet on Medical Galvanism. We have reason to believe that every case stated in that pamphlet is perfectly true, wonderful as they cert inly are; for, a short time since, we called on Mr. Raise, and were introduced to him by a gentleman who was undergoing the operation. The patient informed us that it was not at all an unplea sant sensation, indeed we felt it ourselves, and there was not the least unpleasantness about it. This gentleman's case was paralysis, and he de dared to us that before he came to Mr. 11.11se one leg had withered away to mere skeleton ; " but now, said he, " you perceive it is both stout and healthy." Such, indeed, was the case. If we can judge by the number of patients Mr. liaise has, we should say he is making some very wonderful Plires, for his house is crowded from morning till night. Persons wishing to have Mr. Raisers pamphlet are informed that it will be forwarded free, on receipt of two postage stamps.

BAKER v. LOWE. THE 44th Number of the HYGEIST • for MARCH contains the above trial, showing that medical ad vice is all quackery, because there is but one disease, impurity of the blood, and therefore but one treatment, viz., proper vegetable purgation. If Captain Lowe had resorted to the Ilygeian treatment he would not only have preserved his foot, but would also have im proved Ids health, at the cost of 11. or 21. This case exemplifies the difference between the Hygeian and organic theories. Doctors can not get off on the plea that they were not eminent practitioners who gave their opinions in Captain Lowe's case. 437 visits at 7s. 6d. each! No wonder the trade of doctor has been so lucrative. It is solely be, cause the Hygeian system does away with all such quackery apt doctors have so shamefully opposed it.

REPORT OF THE RAILWAY DEPARTMENT OF TUE BOARD OF TRADE ON THE SCHEMES FOR EXTENDING RAILWAY COMMUNICATION FROM NEWCASTLE TO BERWICK. (Ordered, by the House of Commons, to be printed, 24th Feb. 1845.) Railway Department, Board of Trade, Whitehall. The Boar.] constituted by minute of the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade for the transaction of railway business, having had under consideration the two competing schemes for extendiug railway communication from Newcastle to Berwick, viz., the Newcastle and Berwick, and the Northumberland, have de termined on submitting the following report thereon for the cond. deration of Parliament. In this case there can be no doubt that the object of completing the eastern line of communication by the construction of the sole remaining link between Newcastle and Berwick is one highly de sirable to be attained ; and as there are two companies in the field to effect it, and the returns of traffic appear sufficient to show an expectation of a fair though mcxlerate'return on the capital re. quired, we may at once assume that the question is reduced to one of preference between the competing schemes. The Newcastle and Berwick scheme is promoted by the same parties who have carried out the remaining links in the east coast communication between Darlington and Edinburgh. The abandonment of the porting of their line beyond Darlington by the Great North of England Company, owing to the expensive nature of the works upon the line selected between Darlington and Newcastle, and the difficulties arising from the state of the money market, rendered the attainment of this object for a considerable time exceedingly problematical. At length, by the aid of a gua. rants e of six per cent, given by the several Companies interested in the Eastern route, the requisite capital was raised for completing the communication as far as Neitelstle. The success of this pro- ject led to the formation of a Company, promoted ,itc the same in: 444144, - 49 ronetruiete - the ,Notth Britfah line . Edinburghfront to Berwick, which was sanctioned by the Legislature last year. As a natural consequence of the sanction of the North' British line, the priject of a line between Newcastle and Berulek, for which sur veys h.d been previously trade, was brought forward to der the auspices of the united eastern Companies, north of Rugby ; as d from a correvondence which has been made pub ic, it ap pears that there would have been no likelihood of opposi ion to it, had net the line, as originally laid out, threatened to interfere in a particular instance with private property in a mariner considered so objectionable, that an opposition Company was got up fur the express purpose of averting the injury. Upori the details of these proceedings we shall not further enters for we think it right to state that except in so far as the actual position and relations of Companies fonted for the promotion of particular schemes may affect the -general question of public advantage, we have not thoi.ght ourselves wananted in allowing circumstances wt ich may have led to the formation of these Companies, or which may have wired place previous to the submission of their schemes in a defi nite form, in compliance with the standing orders of Parliament, to enter as an element into our consideration. We proceed, there. fore, to compare the two schemes now before us upon their public merits, altogether irrespective of the circumstances which may have led to their formation. The first and most material point of difference between the two schemes is, that the Northumberland Railway is projected as an atmospheric line, by . parties who profess the utmost confidence in the successpf the atmospheric system, and are fully prepared to adopt it, unless the contingency, which they consider extremely improbable, of an unforeseen tailtire of the experiment now about to be tried on the Croydon and Epsom line, should compel them to resort to the use of locomotive engines. It becomes necessary, therefore, that we should state, both in regard lolhis and to other schemes similarly circumstanced, how far the conclusions at which we have arrived have been formed or modified by reference to the atmospheric system. The experiment at Dalkey may be considered, to a great extent, conclusive as regards the success of the atmospheric sy. teen, con. sideteel Merely as a mechanical problem. It is demonstrated that trains may be propelled by means of it at high velocities, with safety and convenience to the public; and there appears not suffi cient reason for .doubting that, as far as mere mechanical arrangements are concerned, the same result may be at. tained when the separate consecutive portions of line over which the trains have to pass are multiplied indefinitely. This, however, is a point which - will scion be brought to the test of experience by the experiment about; to be tried on the Croydon and Epsom line. It is impossible, therefore, not to feel the highest interest in the progress of an experiment, whose success hitherto has been suffi cient to induce eminent authorities to entertain strong hopes that the result maybe an acceleration of speed in travelling, combined with the general introduction of a system of very frequent trains and low Three. • The question, however, assumes a different aspect when we are called upon, in forming a judgment upon competing schemes, to assume the complete success of the atmospheric system, not mere!) as a mechanical theory, or as applicable under peculiar circum stances, but in a practical and commercial point of view, as appli. cable to railways generally. While we wish to guard ourselves against being supposed to express any opinion whether the atmospheric system may or may not be found ultimately to be so applicable, it becomes necessary for us to state a few obvious reasons why we should not be justitiel at pre sent in allowing the assumption of such success to enter as an ele ment in the comparison of such lines as are now under conside ration. I Assuming for the Moment all mechanical difficulties to be over. come, the question still remains by which the practical success of any system of propulsion must be tested, viz., that of expense. Under this head the important question is not yet fully solved, whe. ther a double line may not be equally required with the atmo spheric as with the locomotive system for the convenient working of a large and mixed traffic over an extended line. Upon this point the opinion of some eminent authorities has been strongly expressed to the effect that a double line, with double tube, Ste., would be indispensable, unless upon a short line, where the traffic should consist of a certain number of trains starting a: regular Intervals nom ach eni ; n:r is thee ;myth ng in the experience of the atmospheric system, up to the present time, that would warrant us in assuming this opinion to be alto. gether un'ountleci. But if we were to assume a double line to be necessary, the first cost of construction under the atmo;pl - iris system v.ould be so greatly incr:astd, that no reduction in the rate of wetting expenses cou d compensate far :t, uci as the traffic was exceedingly large. The cost of the atmospheric apparatus is esti. mated by Messrs. Eamuda, in their evidence last year Mora the Croy do.. and Epsom Committee, at 4,0001, per mile of single line, independently of the cost of stationary engines, whic't is estimate.. at about 5,00 W. for every three milts, or 1,7004 per mile. The actual cost.of the propelling power by the atmospheric system was stated by the manager of the Dalkey lire, in his evidence before the Croydon and Epsom Committee, last year, to have been a frac tion over 7d. per mile ; and, Includinfi tte cost of maintenance of way, the comparison was stated, by the same gentleman, to stand as 9d. per mile under the atmospheric system, against Is. 41d. per mile muter the locomotive system. It is evident, therefore, that even if we could assume the sufficiency of a single line under the atmospheric system, we should not be warranted in assuming the success of that system, in a commercial point of view, as an esta. Wished fact, especially when the traffic is not likely to be large. It is also the opinion of many practical men, that the atmospheric system could not be applied with advantage when the traffic is of a mixed character, consisting, in a great measure, of heavy trains of goods and minerals, and there are, as yet, no sufficient data to warrant us in assuming this opinion to be altogether with out foundation. Under these circumstances, and considering that, on the one hand, a good locomotive line can always be rendered available for the atmospheric system, should that system be found to succeed; while, on the other hand, a line laid out expressly for the atmo. spheric system might not, in the event of its failure, admit of being readily converted into a good locomotive line, we have not thought ourselves justified, when comparing two rival projects presented to us, in assuming the complete success of the atmospheric system, which is still under experiment, but have thought ourselves bound to form our opinion upon them with reference to the present and not to the future or possible state of the science of railway loco motion. We shall proceed therefore to compare the two lines, apart from all considerations as to the atmospheric system. As locomotive lines, the Newcastle and Berwick has a great superiority over its competitor in respect of gradients. The gradients of the Newcastle and Berwick line are of a very superior description, having in the whole course of the line only two planes, one of 1 in 170 for 3/ miles, and the other of 1 in 150 for two miles, upon which the use of additional power might occasionally become necessary. All the rest of the line has remarkably easy gradients, and would admit of being worked over at the highest velocities. The Northumberland line has gradients of 1 in 50, 1 in 59, L in 80, and on the whole, a length of upwards of five miles, at an inclination steeper than or equal to 1 in 100, and of 8/ miles at an inclination of lin 100 to lin 150. It is true that these gradients are generally for short distances, and undulating, and are there. fore not so objectionable as if they had been for treater lengths ; still, when compared with the excellent gradients of the other line, their inferiority is manifest. Our views upon the subject of gradients have been already fully stated in our report upon the Manchester and Leeds district, to which we here refer. It will be seen, that while as a general rule, and more especially for lines of light and frequent traffic for short distances, in districts where level gradients cannot be attained with out an enormous increase of expense, we are disposed to think that undue importance has often been attached to superiority of gradients, as compared with economy in the first cost of construc tion, we do not fail to recognise the obvious advantage of good gradients, when such can be attained at any moderate cost, upon such a line as the present, which forms a great link in a very im portant and extended system of national communication. Perhaps the greatest advantage of decidedly good, as compared to inferior gradients, is, that they admit, consistently with :eco nomy, of a higher degree of punctuality. The chances of delay are considerably multiplied upon steep gradients, occurring too frequently to admit of the regular use of assistant power, espe cially in certain states of the weather. Upon short lines, and for a local traffic, this may be comparatively unimportant, but where the delay accumulates over 60 miies, and affects the whole system of trains from Newcastle to London, it may become a formidable evil. Accordingly, we can have no hesitation in pronouncing de cided superiority of gradients a strong feature of preference in a hue such as that from Newcastle to Berwick, and as sufficient to compensate for the difference in actual distance, in which respect the line on inferior gradients has the advantage. This opinion might have been modified if the superiority of gradients on the part of the Newcastle and Berwick line bad involved any disproportionate increase of expense. But this does not appear to be the case. The works of both lines are remarkably easy, with the exceptiou of the bridges across the Tyne and Tweed, and passage through the town of Newcastle. The estimated capital of the Newcastle and Berwick line is 1,400,000!.; that of the Northumberland, 1,000,000 i. The latter estimate is for a single atmospheric line, and it is th ere f ore not very certain how far it might be accurate for a double locomotive line. Assuming this, however, to be the case, the excess of capital upon the main line of the Newcastle and Berwick will not be very great, since out of the 400,000!. additional which the scheme is esti mated to require, it provides eight and a half miles of branches for local accommodation, not provided for by the other scheme, as well as a much more complete and expensive passage of the Tyne and through the town of Newcastle, to which we shall presently advert. In regard to gradients, therefore, we consider that the Newcastle and Berwick scheme has a decided advantage, and that the small additional outlay at which this advantage may be pur chased, is, in a case like the present, well bestowed. The next important point of comparison is as to the made of passing the Tyne and the town of Newcastle. The Newcastle and Berwick scheme proposes to effect this object by a lofty britlgi, and viaduct, forming a direct communication between the high parts of Newcastle and Gateshead, and uniting in one central station all the different railways which radiate from Newcastle, The Northumberland line, on the other hand, crosses the Tyne at a lqtycr lrvt 1. by a bridge approached try steep descents, and then tunnels under the town far a distance of 2,410 yards. Considered with a view to public advantage, and irrespective of the question of interference with private property. from the const- WIL SO N'S SCOTTISH ENTERTAIN- At the MUSIC -HIM, STORE-STREET, BEDFORD-SQUARE, On MONDAY EVENING, March 3, at Eight o'clock, Mr. WILSON will repeat his Entertainment of WANDERING WILLIE'S WALLET.

The adfantage of a junction of the different lines leading to Newcastle in a centrtil station must be admitted to be very considerable, more especially when it is considered that many of them carry a very large Weal traffic for short distances. The number of local passengers entering and leaving the present Gateshead station is stated to be not leis than 500,000 annually ; and on the Newcastle and North Shields Rail. way 'not less than 850,000 passengers are conveyed annually. it has been objected, that this amount of local traffic Might interfere with the through traffic of the Newcastle and Berwici line, which proposes to use the line of the Newcastle and North Shields for a shoat distance; but, as the two lines will be united under one ma nagement, and as the number of through trains wilt not be great, we do not think that any injurious amount of interference, either in respect of public safety or convenience, need be apprehended. The connexion with the Newcastle and North Shields Railway also aff'ords a ready means of access to the shipping quays at Newcastle, which is very desirab'e. ' It is proposed also to render the railway-bridge across the Tyne available for the general traffic of coaches, carts, and foot pas sengers, which will be a considerable benefit to the town of New castle, the opinion of whose inhabitants, as exPressed.by resolutions of the town-council, appears to be decidedly favourable to the mode 1 of traversing the town adopted by the Newcastle and Berwick scheme, as compared to that of the competing scheme. A similar preference appears:to be given to this scheme by the inhabitants of Morpeth, on the ground that it affords them a better station and preferable local accommodation ; and generally speak. big, both in the above respects, and in giving a communication to Alnwick, Blyth, and to the populous mining district of Killing. worth, Benton, Seghill, &c., the Newcastle and Berwick scheme important i tl fieellKelso o n superiority bficrtach:egi o I.

On the one hand, it is claimed as pne of the strongest grounds of preference by the promoters of the NOrthumberlind line, that their scheme is entirely independent of all existing railway inte. rests; while, on the other hand, the connexion betw . cen the New.. castle and Berwick scheme and the lines already 'ecropleted or sanctioned to the north and south of it, is urged by its promoters as a valid reason, on public grounds, for giving It a *fere:ice. The argument of the Northumberland Company ifs, that such an identification of interest as amounts to a virtual monopoly exiNK o nong the different lines forming the eastern line, and that t~iapoly would be consolidsted by Riving a preference to *be - 111 Newcastle and BerwiC;c !tchrtnc Rugby. It is therefore urged that it is highly important, oil grounds of public policy, to break up this monopoly by placing the important link between Newcastle and Berwick in the hands of an independent Company, to a certain extent in opposition to the existing interests. After having given the subject all the consideration which its undoubted importance merits, it does not appear to us that any. thing that can be called monopoly, in the proper sense of the word, exists at present, or would be extended or consolidated by giving a preference to the Newcastle and Berwick scheme. The different Companies forming the links of the line from Rugby to Edinburgh, i e. the Midlands Companies, the Great North of England, the Newcastle and Darlington, and the North British, are independent of each other. As regards some of these Companies, it is notorious that this independence is acted upon to n interest. n a tira lly hlnavreebgeaerdn expected o xP Ot c h ted er the fullest extent; and that there it not even that unity of manage. It h t t in i n rot n u f interest, n d those h however,.. seof nth e i s pu conso lidates ! u w erebe b i y n Companies, again, this unity does exist to a greater or less degree s founded in a great measure upon eommon interest. theirtoT went he own and suwiuntnifi p , policy c y a n w which identification tie, and might be ditssolved to-morrow by the sharehalders of any one of the Companies named, if they saw reason ta"believe that y ter o e f s promote the interests of other lines. I no sa p c e r rm ific a ed net t i o t There does not appear, however, to be the slightest ground for alleging that this has been the case, or that the unitysof interest, such as it is, which has subsisted amonethe different totnpanies on the eastern line, has been otherwise than idvantgreous to the public. The term "monopoly" cannot be ap p lied WI any justice to such a combination of the different'consectitive !Mk s of a great line of railway communication as tends to ensure the whole being worked as one concern for the purposes of ;he through traffic. On the contrary, the objection might be mordeptly applied to the existence of one of such links in a statq of absOlute independence, with both the power and the inducement to prit the 'public to in convenience, in order to extract an undue propqrtion of the profits of the through traffic. Such instances are by no means imaginary; on the contrary, many cases might be quoted where the public have been subjected for long periods together to great inconvenience, and have been heavily taxed, owing to the absence of that unity of interest between connecting lines, which is objected monopoly. sufficient to - that tins which ft persons who pool, or Dlancln quently compel mainder of the also in practice, among the ditTere.., line of communicant harmony and accurac , sure speed and also are apt to were a long con: interest. Coals long distances wit,. sufficient to remunerai or twenty miles, railways to the through lines ii advantage cans of one througl where cross lines, ported by difleree common interest, such cases it is manent nature, Jght to ..raised with extreme jealousy; but the case appears to us to be very different as regards lines which COP. stitute portions of what, for paramount public objects, must be considered as properly one system. We are of opinion, therefore, that in the case before us, such modified identification of interest as exists between the Newcastle and Berwick and the other eastern Companies cannot be considered as objectionable on public grounds; but, on the contrary, as furnishing an additional guarantee for the proper working of the ine, and full development of its resources in the manner most ad vantageous for the public, reference being had to the peculiar cir. cumstances in which the eastern chain of communication is placed by the competition both of steamboats between London, Edinburgh, and all the principal eastern parts, and also of the western line of railway communication, which will afford a route between Edin. burgh and London only a few miles longer than any that has bees proposed on the eastern side of the kingdom. t In another respect, this same identification of interest affords an important advantage, viz , in the additional security which it af fords for the completion of the undertaking in its integrity. The returns of traffic submitted to us show a sufficient .but still a moderate return on the capital that may probably be milked ; and therefore, in the event of any unforeseen accident or change in the army market, it is by no means an Improbable contingency. that a new Company, left entirely to its own resources, might fail to complete the more difficult and expensive portions of the work; such for instance'as the bridgeelleoo:3 the Tyne and Tweed. The united interest; however, of the Eastern Companies 'would at all times be amply sufßcient to carry out a scheme promoted by them in such a complete form, as to enable them to contend, at the greatest possible advantage, with the competition of the western lines for the Sco ch traffic. This consideration ap. pears to Aur - alsO to be a sufficient answer to the objection which has been urged by the promoters of the Northumberland scheme_ that if the scheme promoted by the eastern Companies is granted there will be less likelihood of the present circuitous route of the line betsseen Newcastle and Darlington being improved. The engineering difficulties of the country on a direct lime between Durham and Newcastle are known to be great, having formerly led to Parliament suctioning the abandonment of that portion of the projected line of the Great North of England Company for which an Act had been obtained; and as the present route of tbeNew. castle and Darlington Railway accommodates Sunderland, Shields. and the population of the country better, and will 'be improved by cutting off the angle at Brockley Whins, so as to be only a few miles longer than the direct line, it may be questionable whether the through traffic will be sufficient to justify the ea_ penditure necessary in order to carry a more direct line - with tolerable gradients across the difficult country to the south of Newcastle. Should this, however, appear to be the case, there can be no season to apprehend that the combination of eastern Companies, after completing the communication to Edinburgh, would hesitate about effecting any . improvement which, in the even balance of distance between the eastern and western lines of communication with Scotland, was felt to be important. For the following reasons, therefore,— . 1. Because the Newcastle and Darlington is a decidedly better line than ‘ the Northumberland, considered with reference to the established method of propulsion upon railways, which alone has undergone the test of experience; 2. Because it affords more local accommodation, and passes the principal towns, in a manner considered by the inhabitants to be more conducive to their interests ; 3. Because it affords more convenient bridges across the Tyne and Tweed ; And, 4. Because its connexion with the other railways forming the eastern line of communication, affords a better guarantee for its completion, and for its being worked in a manner the most bone.. ficial to the rublic. . We are of opinion that, upon public grounds, it deserves a pre. Terence over the competing Northumberland scheme. In conclusion, we beg to draw attention to the passage of the Fifth Report of the Select Committee of last year, in which it Li stated, in recommending that reports should he made to Parliament by this department upon railway schemes, "That no such reports should be held to prejudice the claims of private persons, the examination of which should be altogether reser►ed to the Houses of the Legislature." _ _ _ _ _ In submitting to Parliament, in conformity with the recorn. mendations of that Committee, the retults at which wo have arrived, with a view to the information and assistanceof Parliament in forming a judgment upon the schemes in question, in s• far as our report may be available for that purpose, we are anxious that it should be distinctly understood that we have arrived at these results solely upon public grounds, and to the exclusion of all con. siderations how far such results might require to be modified by a due regard for private rights and interests.

PARIS, Pxn. 20.--It was erroneously stated by one of the Paris journals that the two Englishmen, Parker and Williams, who were taken up here on suspicion of passing stolen Bank of England notes, had been re leased from custodv. They are still in prison, and it has been proved tliat some of the notes which they changed were the produce of three distinct robberies, viz., one at Bethnal-green in 1843, and two in Manchester last year. Mr. Gude, solicitor, from London, and Mr. Beawick, chief superintendent of police at Manchester, arrived in Paris yesterday, and had an interview with Lord Cowley and the French authorities. It is a curious fact that the man who was tried for the Bethnal-green robbery, and sentenced to transportation, but kept in England for a year in tho hope that he would make disclosures, had not left Cur New South Wales a month before notes derived f: , ont that rubbery were in circulation here. The amount of money found upon Parker and Williams_ is not considerable; it amounts alto g money changers here, with wh e o t n i l ler th to es l e es n s ie t n ha l l i l a:l (Xi.
