It will at the same time afford, in connexion with other lines, accommodation to the counties of Limerick, Clare, Galway, May, Roscommon, Longford, Leitrim, Fermanagh, Cavan, Monaghan, Londonderry, Antrim, Armagh, and Down, and passing by or near to the Arigna iron mines, and the great coal and limestone fields in Connaught, it will essentially promote the agricultural and commercial in terestsof those places. It will also complete an important chain of railway communication between the port of Galway In the west (one of the most capacious ha the United Kingdom, and which must, ore long, become a packet station for steamers to and from America, &c.) and the port of Bel fast In the northeast, where there are constantly steam packets pro ceeding to Glasgow and the ports on the western coast of Scotland, and which will be brought Into sheap and rapid - eommuntsation with each other. It is to be observed that whilst almost every other line of railway hitherto projected diverges from Dublin, no line is as yet proposed which intersects the inland counties. By crossing, as it will, other main lines, it will be a feeder to them, and it will, in return, receive from them.a considerable - amount of traffic in passengers and mer chandise. A preliminary survey of the district is being made ; the line will pass fir nearly the entire length through the table land of Ireland, so that the gradients are particularly favourable ; there will, moreover, be no tunnelling, nor any engineerkig work of diffieulty. From the estimates which have been made it is confidently expected that a return of 10 per cent. on the capital will be realised. The act of in corporation willlhnit the liability of the Shareholders to the amount of shares which they may take. Appliealion for shares to be addressed to the Committee, at the Company's Offices, 63, Moorgate-street, London, or to the under mentioned brokers :—Mr. Anthony Lawrie, Liverpool ; Mr. May, Liverpool ; Messrs.

Sir,—For the last three or four years I have been labouring under a nervous deafness, so much so at times as to be almost incapable of hearing. After trying several very eminent aurists, from whom I de rived scarcely any relief, I was induced at the solicitation of a friend, to try your excellent Eye Snuff, I accordingly procured one of your 40. 4 d. canisters, after taking which I found considerable benefit, so much so that I sent for two more, which, having used, I found my hearing completely restored, and I have not been deaf since. I should mention that the time I commenced taking your Eye Snuff was in April last, and have continued taking it sluee.—l am, Sir, your obe dient servant, W. 11. ADAMS. To Mr. W. Grimstone. Any quantity of Eye Snuff can he forwarded through the General Post, by sending money orders. A 2s. 4d. canister, with directions, Trill cost 31., and so on iu like proportion THE LITERARY FUND. Wednesday the 56th anniversary of the Literary Fund was celebrated by a public_ dinner in the Freemasons' Tavern, Great Queen-street, Lincoln's Inn fields. The Right Hon. the Earl of Ellenborough officiated as chair man, and was supported on the right by the Archbishop of Dublin, Chevalier Bunsen, Lord Colchester, Lord Mahon, Major-General Pasley, and Mr. James, and on the left by Lord Brougham, Mr. Murchison, Mr. M. Milnes, Sir- H. Ellis, Mr. Sergeant Talfourd, the Rev. Dr. Russell, Mr. Wa'Aer, Mr. B. B. Cabbell, Ste; The company, which comprised some of the leading literary characters of the day, numbered about 100. The cloth having been removed, Non nobis was chanted by Messrs. Hobbs, Francis, Chapman, and Hatton. The Noble CHAIRMAN, in rising to propose the first toast, intimated that her. Majesty had been graciously pleased to permit the royal crown to be borne on the arms of the Literary Fund Society ; and it was stated in the communication of this her Majesty's 'gracious favour towards the society, that her Majesty and Prince Albert entertained the most lively interest in its welfare. —(Loud cheers.) He had now -to propose that they should drink her Majesty's health, and he was sure they would do so, not merely giving a cold expression of their bounden duty as subjects, but an expression coming from the heart, knowing, as they did, that her Majesty illustrOted her great station by the high qualities alio brought to the performance of her public.duty.— - (Cheers ) Indeed, in whatever station she might have been borri—hawever low—she would have illustrated that station by the highest points of domestic virtue He gave her Majesty's health, which was drunk with all the honours. The CHAIRMAN next gave " The health of her Ma iesty the Queen Dowager, the respected consort - of the Late Sovereign ; of Prince Albert, the chosen and beloved consort of our excellent Queen ; the Prince of Wales and the rest of the Royal Faniily ;" which was drunk with three times three. The CHAIRMAN next called upon the company to drink to the health of the Archbishop of Dublin, who was not only one of the first dignitaries and luminaries of the Church, but himself a man most distinguished in literature, who had devoted for a series of years the tenth of the produce of all his literary works to. the ser vice of that society.—(Loud cheers.) He asked them to combine with his name that Church of which he was an ornament, in which at all times there were found men of the most distinguished learning and literature, and that which was above all other advantages, the first of Chris tian virtues—charity . .—(Loud cheers.) The Archbishop of DUBLIN acknowledged the com pliment in a long and able speech, advocating the diffu sion of knowledge, and the cultivation of human intellect —a cause in which the clergy, as servants of Him who said " Let there be light," contributed to the full extent of their scanty means. As the most expedient mode of bestowing patronage on literature, and one he had inva riably adopted himself, he recommended those who had the power not to encourage persons to enter any field of literature whose compositions were not likely to be en couraged.by the public. His practice had been, when he found literary men having a 'particular work in view, in a department in which they were likely to succeed, to encourage them by guaranteeing them against loss, and in this way he had found the best results, not only to the individual, but even to the cause of literature and science. The CHAIRMAN next proposed " the Health of Lord Colchester, and the Navy,' and " Major-General Pas ley, and the Army." Than the former the navy had not a warmer friend; and he particularly congratulated the officers of the East India Company on the fact that they had the advantage of being examined by Major- General Pasley as to their fitness for the situations they would be called to fill in India. There was not a more highly educated body of officers than those whom the Gallant General was called on to examine. Lord COLCHESTER and General PASLEY severally re turned thanks. The CHAIRMAN next proposed "Prosperity to the Literary Fund." It was now, he believed, 21 years since he became a subscriber to this charity—certainly not as a literary man, for he could not pretend to lite rature. In that society of men of literature and science he was, in fact, the last to fill the chair—(Cheers)—but he recognised the vast influence of literature on the happi ness of mankind, and to the best of his ability he would at all times encourage those who, with good characters, honestly pursued literature as a professional pursuit.— (Cheers.) He would not attempt to exaggerate the advantages (f that society. He did not apprehend that say.man would devo'e himself to literature from the expectation of deriving assistance from such a fund; nor did he think it desirable that such should be the case. It was far better that men should take that line which their own genius and disposition printed out to them as that in which they were most likely to succeed. The great advantage of the Literary Fund always appeared to him to be this—that in the occasional distresses and calamities which might overtake almost any man in the course of his life, the literary man might resort to it, and at the same time preserve the dignity of his per sonal character and independence.—(Cheers.) He valued literature as highly as any man although he did not possess it—he valued science as highly as any man—but he valued independence a character in the man possess ing either the one or the other highly too.—(Cheers.) In conclusion, the Noble Chairman strongly recommended the interests and objects of the society. The Rev. Dr. RussELL, the treasurer of the fund, then t gr ed an b t e s tw a e w e a n rde n d in i e n te l e B n 44 m , a en nd a s n t d ate t d we tt wt r h e oe a xa d seu a nn sdst six of oi t b h f u e the latter. being authors and six th e widows of authors, amounted to nearly 1,0001. He also read the new list of contributions, from which it appeared that the Noble Chairman, in addition to his annual con tribution of 10t 10s.. had added a second subscription of 25L—(Cheers)—Lord Brougham, 2.o.—(Cheers)—Che valier Bunsen, 5/. ; Lord Mahon, a third donation of 101. 10s.• Sir P. Shelly, 101.; Lord Colchester, 5/. ; M r . Macready, 5/. ; Mr. Twigs, 51. ; the Bishop of Ely, 51.; Mr. Macaulay, 101; Mr. Hallam, SL; Mr. D'lsraeli, lot; Mr. B. B. Cabbell, 10/4 Mr. Walter, 10/. ; Mr. J. Walter, .jun., 10L, &c. The CHAIRMAN next proposed the health of Cheva lier Bunsen, and paid a high compliment to the King of Prussia, whose representative the Chevalier was in this country. The toast was drunk with great applause. The Chevalier BUNSEN, in acknowledging the toast, bore testimony to the liberal an d generous spirit in which the Literary Fund conferred its grants, irrespective alike of party and of country, and instanced the case of Chateaubriand, who in the day of misfortune, almost un known personally in Engl an d, w hi c h still, however, ap preciated his merits and his genius, received that assist ance from the funds of this Institution which enabled him to emerge from embarrassing difficulties. The CHAIRMAN next proposed the health of Mr. Monckton Milnes, and the Members of both Houses of Parliament who had favoured the fund with their pre sence.—(Cheers.) Mr. MILNES was glad of the opportunity of extending his view, even on political subjects, further than the at mosphere of the House of Commons. He would rather, in fact, be among them as a writer than as a Member of the House. He eulogised the conduct of the Noble Lord in the chair in presiding over the des tinies of India, and looked forward to the distant futurity when that race of men, different from ourselves, but growing up under our rule in India, would enjoy the advantages of a common situation with ourselves. He was also glad to look to the west, and see not only " a little cloud," but a great and magnificent empire, with the same laws, literature, and language, which, whatever collisions might happen, must be a bond of sympathy between the two countries. He lamented the wretched pittance doled out by Parliament to literary men, and hoped the time was coming when more ample provision would be made in this matter. He eulogised the most judicious and kind manner in which Sir Robert Peel had, in the cases of the sister of Burns and the late Mr. Thomas Hood, afforded the means in the one in stance out of his own funds, and in the other by a pro vision for life, and after death fur his widow, secured the comfort of two most deserving persons. The claims of literature were becoming every day more generally and justly appreciated, even when combined with other pur suits. No one ever heard that Sergeant Talfourd was the worse laWyer because he had written poetry. Lord Brougham was not the less idolised in the Upper House of Parliament because he had sown broadcast the seeds of knowledge in almost every field of science and phi losophy. Lord Mahon and Mr. Macaulay were not less able Members of the House of Commons because they had written history ; nor was Mr. D'lsraeli less attended to because he wrote such very clever novels.—(Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN, in proposing the next toast, said— He really knew not how to propose it, for how could he attempt to describe the great claims possessed by Lord Brougham to honour from men of literature and science? —(Loud cheers.) He was about to propose " The Health of Lord Brougham and the Writers on Science." But with what class of writers might he not almost with equal justice associate his name ? It was not only in every branch of literature and science that Lord Brougham had been distinguished ; he had done much more—he had not only benefited the existing race and future races by his own writi ngs, b ut he had done more for education, more to e x t en d t h e pleasures derived from the improvement of the human mind amidst the middle and even poorer classes of his countrymen, than any living man.—(Cheers.) Contemporaries dorn.ght rail or ag a t i h n a s t t s w a h h. a i e t ot his ; N o a o l b o l u e s Friend in i m g i ci er t h - a t t say te mpt r to a u n p d o e n r r t t i v s his great abilities and great actions; but he might deride all those futile attempts to interfere with his right to eternal fame, which would be acknowledged by all pos terity.—(Cheers.) He did not speak in the language of exaggeration ; he told them that which they all knew —that be the man of his age whom he might, he would find it difficult indeed to contend, in the opinion of pos terity, with the name of Lord Brougham.—(Cheers.) Posterity would do justice to his great exertions in the cause of civil liberty—in the cause of the general happi ness and improvement of mankind. .He could not trust himself with this subject ; but this ho w ould say of his Noble Friend, that •be thl position of a man struggling to come forward _in life An any profession, or in any ' Bonus in Cash. g iro Pei branch of literature or science, what it might, he could find no better adviser, no kinder friend, than Lord Brougham. People might fancy, froth what he some times said in the House of Lords e ettiat his Noble Friend was not a very good-tempered Man ; but let any mart try him out of the House, and, whatever the real diffi culties in which he might be placed, he would find there was not a better-natured, kinder-hearted man in the world. His Noble Friend had had but little justice done him ; but he (Lord Ellenborough) had felt it, right to do him justice. He had said nothing more than he knew to be true, and which, if not now, posterity wouldac knowledge to be true. Without detaining them longer, he proposed the health of Lord Brougham, which was drunk with three times three and one cheer more. Lord BROUGHAM thanked the company for the very kind and indeed affectionate manner in which they had received his health. He felt a peculiar pride in consi dering himself a literary man, although accidental cir cumstances, professional and political, had estranged him for a season more than he otherwise wished from literary pursuits. He regarded it as a peculiar privilege and happiness to have cultivated literature and science fur now so long a period, and he attributed the honour now conferred upon him by coupling his name with the writers on science, to the tact that he believed he was at that moment one of the oldest cultivators of science now living in this country; it being just half a century since he first became known to the mathematical world by a publication in the Philosophical Transactions on subjects of mathematics and natural philosophy.-- (Cheers.) He was deeply sensible of the value of this admirable and useful institution; and he agreed parti cularly in the grounds on which his Noble Friend, the Chairman, had rested its commendation; he meant, its tendency not to encourage men who had no natural cell to devote themselves to literature—for that was not de sirable on the part of others; above all, it was not de sirable on their own particular account. Indiscriminate charity was no part of the object of the Literary Fund. Certainly it was no part of its object to teach literary men to rely on the benefactions of this or any other institution. But, as men of letters were perhaps more subject than others to reverses of fortune, to losses and calamities, to penury and privation, its object was to hold out the .helping hand occasionally, temperately, discriminately; and, after full examination and cautious inquiry, to give its assistance secretly, and not to wound the feelings of the most sensitive of nature's sons. To befriend such an institution became not only a duty, but ought to be a peculiar pleasure and highest gratification of all who had the means. The Noble and Learned Lord then complimented Lord Ellenborough on the manner in which he had die ! charged the duties of Chairman, and the debt of gratitude the institution owed him for his energetic advocacy of its claims. He spoke in a noble presence ; and, i looking around him for one whose name he might pro pose as a toast, he beheld those who had fought and bled in their country's service. Here were divines, lawyers, poets, masters of sacred song ; here ware pious prelates. whose lives were pure as the faith they professed and preached ; here were men who had adorned and culti vated social life by the arts they had invented ; here were they who had also stamped their name on the end less memory of the world, for the services they had • rendered mankind : among all these, whom was he to choose—whom but their most distinguished Chairman %. —(Loud cheers.) He had a grateful recollection.of those countless millions over whom his Noble Friend had borne sway with such illustrious distinction, that he would venture to say, in neither ancient, middle, nor modern times, had there been any example of a more brilliant vice royalty than he exercised in India.—(Cheers.) Un der his protecting influence, guided by his masterly councils, and inspired by that without which no states- . man, be his wisdom ever so profound, could hope to suc ceed, because it would not merit success, and could not earn it,—with that steady and unflinching firmness which, in statesmen as in warriors, is the grand title to success, our armies in that country had been led to victory and renown. Without further preface, he would prose " their Noble Chairman."—(Cheers.) Lord ELLENBOROUCII, in acknowledging the toast, spoke as follows :—I thank you most sincerely for the kindness with which you have been pleased to drink my health, and I owe especially a debt of gratitude to my Noble Friend for the very much too flattering a manner in which he has proposed it. But I owe a debt of gratitude to my Noble and Learned Friend far beyond that. I have to thank him, not for having praised me in my presence, but for having defended me in my absence. Gen tlemen, this is not the place for me to say one word with respect to the measures which led to the success that attended my administration in Irelia. This only I will say, that success was unbroken by one single mo mentary reverse. Every measure succeeded ; and I owe a debt of everlasting gratitude to those noble hearts by which that success was achieved. I never had to com plain of any civil servant of the company with whom I Came into personal communication ; I never had to corn • plain of any military officer. Every one served me with the utmost zeal and the most unbounded devotion. No time shall ever obliterate or diminish my gratitude to them for those services. Gentlemen, I drink all your good healths, heartily wishing prosperity to this Society; and I hope every year will have a r• port yet more favourable than that we have heard to-night.—(Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then proposed the health of " Lord Mahon and the Writers of History."—(Cheers.) Lord MeHoe acknc,wlidged the compliment in a neat speech, which was lourily applauded. Mr. M URCHISON, 1 eing called upon by the Chairman, proposed " the Health of Baron Leopold Von Bea, and the Writers on Geology," which the Baron briefly ac knowledged. The CHAIRMAN, in an eulogistic speech, tit - -xt pro posed " Mr. Sergeant Talfourd and the II( ets ;" to which tl e Learned Sergeant responded in a long and energetic harangue. The next toast was, " Mr. James and the Novelists," to which Mr. James replied in a speech of considerable length. " Mr. Komble and the Dramatists" was next given, and duly honour e d b y the company. Mr. Kembie replied, also at great length. A second list of contributors having been read, Lord ELLENBOROUCH said it would be very ungracious if they did not drink the health of those visitors who had favoured them with their company. Perhaps. there fore, Mr. Walter would allow him to associate his name with that toast. Mr. Walter had contributed a great deal to literature—a great deal more in one week than others in a year.--Cheers.) Mr. WALTER said, that any services which he might have rendered to literature, or any cause which 'item; ture knew best how to diffuse and defend, were amply repaid by their kind reception. Though he was a stranger to the meetings of this society, he was not ignorant of its merits. Dr. Johnson said, that the best patrons of authors were the booksellers; and, in truth, from the period when flattering dedications to princee and rich nobles went out of fashion to the present time, and the support of literature was thrown upon the mass of the people—(" Hear, hear," from Lord Brougham)— upon the daily increasing number of readers and students —from that time to the present the advantage had bees mutual; to the public, by a more ready access to science and literature ; and to authors, by a greater number of readers, and of course more ample means of support. If, speaking generally, in our day there had been less of great genius than in preceding times, there had certainly been a more extensive diffusion of minor intelligence. whick was perhaps more necessary than even genius itself for the ordinary purposes of every-day practice. Hence they had throughout the coun try a great number of literary institutions ; and where there wore so many professors of literature, h there must, of course, be a proportionate number of failures. The d u ty, therefore, of every one who re distinction a to consider well their e v n e e t. e e n o c n e dle mankindar i ngoabnl obliged e s d c science for f t o o r theirendbeneficial assistance where I . ldiu e . recommendationthose t u o r occurred; aspirants ; talents, and whether they had re a lly the vocation they supposed — (Hear , hear)—for if there but it should t o literary be with were error in this respect in the first instance, the less distinguished walks of life would be deprived of mem bers who might be useful—and families, of exertions which might at least repel want and procure moderate comforts. It was the object of that society, and of others of a similar character, to heal the evils which resulted from such a state of things, and it would be extremely hard if those who had dedicated their lives to the im provement of their countrymen should, when life sp. proached so near its close that they could make no further exertions, be left to suffer want, either in their own persons, or in the persons of those who had looked up to them for support. He, therefore, heartily wished. prosperity to the benevolent objects of this institution, which he hoped would long continue to be the resource of unfortunate merit in literary pursuits of every kind, " The Stewards" was the next toast, which w as responded to by the Rev. Sir John Wood. The final toast of the evening was "The Ladies," given in right gallant style by the Chairman, elad heartily responded to by the company. The meeting broke up about half -past 11 o'clock. THE THAMES TUNISEL.---11 HITSTni HOLIDAYS.-- Upwards of 33,000 persons have passed through the Thames Tunnel during the last four days, viz., on Whit -Sunday, 8,590; Whit-Monday, 8,320; Whit - Tuesday, 7,290; and Wednesday, 8,190; the great majority of whom were chil dren. Bands of musicians were stationed at either end, but the principal attraction was a Welsh family named Thomas (a father and four children), the youngest of whom was on l y five Years of age. ROY POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION. ---At this fee tire season of the Year, when so many are seeking for amuse ment, no place is better adapted for that purpose than the above institution ; but the greater number visit it for a higher purpose—that of instruction—and it will amply repay all those who are anxious to learn. Among the numerous specimens of natural history: works of art and science, we mentions Messrs. Clegg and Samuda's working model of the atmospheric railway, which has created so much atten tion. Models in all their complicated and varied features ; steam-engines, fixed and locomotive; diving bells ; diver, who exhibits various life preservers in the great tank. Among those which excite the most atten tion, we may mention Mr. Wilson's life coat, and many others too numerous to name. Lectures on chemistry and natural philosophy, by Doctors Ryan and Backhoffner, who deserve great credit for the simple yet effective manner in which they convey their ideas, and at the same time blending in struction with amusement. The Physioscope, the Crorna trope, and most beautiful dissolving views, all of which hr a great degree enhance the pleasure which the Directors offer to the public, by the very liberal manner in which every thing novel, both for amusement or instruction, is displayed: and explained. IVIIITSUN HOLIDAYS. WOOLWICH. Notwith standing the enormous influx of visitors to Greenwich during the earlier part of the present week, the vessels of the Watermen's and Woolwich Steam Companies have'bronght down immense freights of passengers, most of whom visited the great national establishments, the Royal Dockyard, Royal Arsenal, and the Royal Military Repository.
