Era - ' . /%~ L____ / ~ / l/~ ~~ _ . -"- THE VACIJUM . IN ATiIOSPIT PROPULSION PRODUCED BY THE DIRECT s .. a ACTION OF STEAM; seee , sre _ Hes se s s A ' :. 15Ir. James Nasmyth, whose indefatigable exertions 7 ! iv in carrying out improvements in machinery are so well • esssa /4. know:: all(J appreciated—whose forge-hammer and pile a._ the direct action of steam, . v driving appartitUgi works: ,enges in the various are making such beneficial et opera tions to which they are aK tied—has just needobtain a the vacuum s patent for a novel plan of produce 11 .4 sary in the tube of the atmospheric atailway, and here his favourite power, steam by direct ae!ion., is again brought into requisition. The great objectiCs.q to the atmospheric system at present is, that in consequere7e of leakage, &c., a much larger consumption of fuel is neceae sary to produce an equivalent amount of power, in compa rison with the locomotive engine. Much ingenious in vestigation has keen, and is being, exercised, either so to improve the continuous valve as to prevent the ad mission of air, or to dispense with it altogether, by the introduction of an entirely different principle for the connexion of the carriages outside, with the travelling piston inside the tube ; but , whatever success may attend the efforts to mature the several plans which are now before the public, the economising the production of that power which produces the vacuum is in itself the most important point, in a pecuniary point of view, in the system of atmospheric propulsion. By Mr. Nasmyth's invention, lie is enabled to dispense with the complex system of stationary engines and air pumps, as at present used—the whole apparatus substituted in their glace being a series of two or more large upright air-tight chambers, connected at top by slide valves, and made of boiler plate, to which the steam is admitted from a common low-pres sure steam-boiler. The bottom of these vessels open by suit able valves, into the railway main pipe, and also with the open atmosphere, to permit the exit of the air. Li order to produce a vacuum, the steam is admitted at the upper end of one vessel, and, as it flows in, does not in the slightest degree mix with the air contained therein, but forces that air out through the valves at bottom, precisely the same as tf acted on by is piston, the separa tion between the two columns of air and steam being perfect. As soon as all the air has escaped, and the vessel, consequently, full of steam, a jet of cold water is thrown into the condenser, which is connected with the chambers at the same moment ; the valve ie su re• • gulated that the vessel is closed at top, having a vacuum equal to that produced by the best steam engine, while the connexion with the main pipe is opened, and the air rushes into the vessel ; in the next vessel the steam is admitted at the top, in like manner with the first, and the alternate production of vacuum and admission of air from the main, goes on with rapidity and regularity greater than by steam-engine, as the amount of resistance from friction is absolutely imper • ceptible, end all that is requisite to cause these two large vessels (or as many more as may be considered requisite) to continue the exhaustion of the main pipe, is, to cause the slide valves at top, and the others at ottom of the apparatus, to work in their several proper positions with regularity. To render this apparatus perfectly self-act ing, the inventor has introduced two small tanks of water placed over the discharge valve, in each of which is placed a small gasometer having a hole in the top, and as the discharged air bubbles up through the e ater, some of it collects under the gasometer and lifts'it up; but the mo ment the last bubble of air is gone, and by the action of the valves, steam begins to enter at the top of the other vessel, the gasometer in conseq'ience of the hole at the top, immediately sinks, causing just at the right time the reverse action of the valve—thus giving the apparatus almost a discriminating power to act at only the properwb ringingolesaml ea o n m pe e nr n ot t. entire production O t o ne very g set noroarnyv vacuum ad number e r iso advantage augnl great e a o a ge tg ca hi b na y emd b t t h br i ys s into the condition of one vast magazine of vacuum ; and, on the instant of the signal being given to start, by opening the communication with the main pipe, the train would immediately proceed at a rapid rate on its journey—a far more certain and expeditious mode than waiting the effsct of air-pumps, with the gradual leakage, and loss of power, until the closing point is reached by the continued exhaustion. Mr. Nasmyth proposes that these vacuum chambers should be lined inside and outside with wood to economise the heat, and prevent loss by radiation, and that they should be enclosed in brick towers, or buildings, which, by diver sified architectural design, might be rendered highly or namental to the various points on the line where they are situated. The discovery is, doubtless, an important one, bids fair to produce a vast change in this yet infant mode of propulsion, and, by greatly economising the production of power, places the system in a more satis factory light before the public. -.--'----- ..V .- .. _ , •-•-•t-.. , :::-.-: . : i is ,•- I. , au' '144 •t r'--- , 1 4 .1 e .

The difficulty in obtaining a good Central London terminus has hitherto been an insuperable obstacle to a railway communication between London and the populous and important localities which this line will serve. This obstacle has now peen removed by the exten sion of the South Western Railway from Nine-elms to the foot of Htingerford Market Bridge, for which an Act of Parliament has been obtained this sessicn ; and by the proposed railway bridge across the Thames, on the east side of the Hungerford Market Suspension Bridge, for which a Company has been formed to obtain an Act in the ensuing session. Arrangements have been made with the South Western Railway Company, securing the terminus at Hungerford Market. The London, Hounslow, and Western Railway is intended to com mence at Hungerford Market Railway Bridge in the Strand, and run along the South Western line to a point near Battersea Church, thence crossing the Thames, and running through Fulham, Hammer smith, Chiswick, Turnham Green, Brentford, Isleworth, Hounslow, and the intermediate towns and villages to Staines, with a branch from Hounslow to the Great Western Railway, at or near West Drayton. The South Western Company contemplate applying to Parliament in the ensuing Session for an Act to enabls them to extend their line from Hungerford Market Bridge to London Bridge, which will afford to this Compa.ny a terminus at London Bridge as well as at Hunger ford Market. The population and the mercantile traffic with London and the West of England, of the various localities through which this Rail way will pass, far exceed that of any other district in the vicinity of the metropolis, an I no available railway communication from those localities, either to London or to the western or south-western parts oh England, at present exists. The line has been surveyed, and presents no engineering difficul ties ; the greater portion of the cmntry through which the railway will pass is nearly level ; very little ornamental and house property will be interfered with, and, as a consequence, the expense of con struction and of the ac ttisition of the ground for the line will be comparatively small. The average weekly passenger traffic of Hounslow, Isleworth, Brentford, Kew-bridge, Turnham-green, Hammersmith, and Fulham bridge, taken from the Stamp-office returns, allowing eight pas sengers to each omnibus and coach, gives the showing results : Ps. d. PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT. AI LW AY FROM MACCLESFIELD, ILA: passing close to the Towns of Leek, Cheadle, and Uttoxcter, to the Trent Valley Railway north of Lichfield. PROVISIONALLY REGISTERED. The Line will commence at the Terminus of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway at Macclesfield, and pa‘sing by the Rudyard Reservoir to Leek, will proceed by the Churnet Valley to Consall, thence close to Cheadle and Teen, and by Uttoxeter, Bigots Woods and Abbots Bromley down the Blythe, to a point on the Trent Valley Railway north of Lichfield, communicating near there with one of the proposed lines from Dudley or Wolverhampton. A glance at the map will show that this will be the most direct line for the London and Manchester traffic, uniting these two great termini by the shortest practicable route in connexion with existing railways, will completely accommodate the local traffic, and throw open several extensive Coal fields and some thousand acres of Wood land to Manchester, the Potteries, and other great marts of the COLLIERY EXPLOSIONS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—When, in September last, ninety-five human beings were deprived of existence by an explosion of fire damp, at Haswell Colliery, county of Durham, a vast deal was said and wrote about the necessity of Le gislative interference, in order to prevent the recurrence of such direful events ; and at the earnest solicitation of the miners solicitor her Majesty's Ministers agreed to send down two or three professional persons to investi• gate into that affair, so as to ascertain what could be done towards efficiently securing the lives of the miners in future. Messrs. Faraday and Lyell were selected to report on that subject, and in that report brought before Go vernment and the public their views thereon, but stating, in explicit terms that further examination was necessary, in order to establish any improvement on a permanent foundation. Shortly after the meeting of Parliament, the miners petitioned the Legislature on the subject, and pointed out certain measures necessary ; and which, if adopted, would prevent any recurrence of such calamities ; at the same time, urging the closest investigation. Knowing the tr , re strict the inquiry, the more wholesome and sound would be the remedy, the petitioners were met by the Government, assuring them that the subject was under consideration, and as soon as the report was ready (Faraday and Lyell) the recommendations of the said report should have their immediate attention. The report has now been out a considerable time, and not a word has been spoken on the matter. No doubt the excessive railway business has run them close for time, and no doubt also that the estimable and worthy M.P.'s, Lord Ashley and T. S. Duncombe, have spared the Government the infliction of repeating the question (both gentlemen having been requested to do so a short time ago) on the above grounds. yet when I perceive in the Monday edition of The Sun that another of these dreadful calamities has hurried into eternity thirty-nine of our fellow-creatures, and seeing also that a few more days is likely to close the session, I cannot remain silent any longer, for should we have to wait another year, certain I am that we shall witness the wholesale and in dividual sacrifice of human life to an alarming amount, and that in the face of the pledged assurance of her Ma jesty's Government that something should be done as soon as the report of the Learned Commissioners was published. Seeing that the serious collisions on railways have been, and very justly, brought before the House, and perceiving that the same promptitude has evinced itself in Government to make the most searching inquiry into the nature and cause of such collisions and accidents, I still indulge the hope that they will at least issue a corn mission of inquiry for the purpose of laying the lasting foundation of a measure that shall (if not perfect for that purpose) be as near an approximation for the pre , 'vention of such dreadful and extensive sacrifice of the hard toiling and industrious miners of this country as possible.—l remain, yours, in haste, MARTIN JUDE.

This Line is also in some of Its principal features the same as that already approved of by the Board of Trade, and partially abandoned by the Churnet Valley Company—will not comprise more than fifty miles of Railway, and passing through the centre of the unoccupied part of the district, does not interfere with the Grand Junction or any other existing Railway. This and the proposed Line from Crewe-to Derby will also well accommodate the Potteries, giving to that important locality a direct route to London, Birmingham, and the South, to Liverpool and the North, and to Derby and the East, and will also afford a transit for the Eastern counties traffic from Derby to Manchester.

For these important objects, to be secured by an extension of only 12 miles, to connect Bury St. Edmunds and Thetford, the Provisional Committee propose to increase the capital 250,0001., by the issue of 10,000 additional shares; and, for full particulars of the entire plan, refer to their original prospectus. • The Chelmsford and Bury line not having been projected in time to bring it before P ,rliament in the present session in a substantive forth, it has been but imperfectly, and merely incidentally, in opposing other lines, that its merits could be at all brought under the notice of the Board of Trade or of the Committee of the House ; but the strong impression made, notwithstanding, in its favour, is obviously appa rent, both In the reports of the one. and in the decisions of the other. The Board of Trade, in stating the considerations upon which it ad vised the rejection of the Norwich Direct line, reported (March 4th, 1845) that "It is necessary to advert to a railway called the Chelms ford and Bury Railway, projected, but not brought before Parliament, the plan, and section, and tratile tables of which have been submitted to the Board of Trade. This railway appears to us to accommodate a more populous district than that intended to be traversed by the London and Norwich Direct Railway. Its section shows that it may be done at a moderate cost ;" (while) "there is a strong local feeling in its fav ur, evinced by the memorials which have been re ceived by the Board of Trade from the inhabitants of Braintree, Halstead, Sudbury, and other places between Chelmsford and Bury." The Committee of the House of Commons have since not only rejected the Norwich Direct and Bury and Cambridge lines, but the Chairman (Lord Sandon) previous to giving a decision against the Norwich Direct, took occasion to observe that "the Committee was decidedly in favour of the Chelmsford and Bury scheme." To these - public testimonials .in favour of the Chelmsford and Bury line, the Provisional Committee have the satisfaction of aiding, that by a special arrangement with the solicitor ,of the Eastern Counties Railway, they are assured of the concurrence and good offices of that important Company in the formation of their line. In allotting their original Shares. the Provisional atomCmmittee ne cessarily rejected nume r o u s _applications, of which ay be pre sumed that a considerable number were from parties as highly re spectable as ally of those to whom Shares could then be given ; and in the distribution of the additional Shares a seasonable preference will be given to original applicauts, as well il Share holders.

The increased traffic on a railway has always proved to be more than double the pre-existing traffic, but taken at double will give for the passenger traffic of the above places alone, per annum .•• • • • • • £161,537 4 0 The foregoing statement does not include the passenger traffic of Staines, Englefleld-Green, Egham, Bedfont, and the numerous ad jacent villages. The present traffic by carriages, gigs, and horses may be estimated at one-half of the above amount. It has been ascertained by actual observation, that 3,264 carriages and gigs pass to and through Brent ford within a week. Many of the numerous passengers by the steam-boats now plying on the Thames between London and the intermediate places to Byentford and Isleworth, will necessarily avail themselves of the su perior advantages of railway transit. Exclusive of the passenger traffic through Brantford, there are on an average 1,850 waggons and carts to Brentford every week. The extensive merchandise traffic on the River Thames between London and Staines, and the intermediate towns, is subject to great interruption upwards from Brentford, by droughts in summer, and by floods and frosts in winter ; the circuitous course of the river and the great horse-power required to draw the barges against the strong current, render the trhflic by the river slow and very expensive. Every description of merchandise can be carried by this railway at a much less rate, and quicker than by the present water carriage. Since the opening of the Great Western Railway a large portion of the former passenger and merchandise traffic has been transferred to that railway from the old Great Western coach-road, which is parallel with this line, a great part of which will necessarily be restored to the London, Hounslow, and Western Railway.

The distance.from Callao to Linn is about seven English miles. There is open ground all the way salted to receive the rails, the gra dient uniform, and no curves, with an abundant supply of water power. It is estimated that the cost of this line will not exceed 50,000/. ; and, when it is considered that it will command the whole traffic of passengers, and the conveyance of goods between the chief port and the capital of Peru, it may fairly be assumed that the un dertaking will be one of unusual profit. Should the operations of the Company be confined to the line be tweet' Callao and Lima, no further portion of the capital will be called for than may be sufficient to construct that line ; and if the objects of the Compa'iy be not carried out, the whole of the deposit-money will be returned.

That the merits of the concern may be well understood, we print, in extenso, the " PROSPECTUS OF THE GRAND PIC-NIC JUNCTION AND GREAT ALIMENTARY CANAL Co trawr.—The capital will consist of two hundred thousand spoons, and the Company has been already provisionally registered. The object of this vast national undertaking is to develope the resources of pit-nics to a greater extent than has ever yet been at tempted. The Directors have it in contemplation to pur chase the Petersham meadows, and lay down a line of plates from one end to the other with a cold collation at each of the grand termini, and sandwiches at all the interme diate stations. It has been calculated that the Company will thus secure all the pic-nic traffic from the Great Western road ; and the addition of a branch to Hampton Court will greatly augment the probable profits of the shareholders. It is intended subsequently to open a communication between Sandwich and Ham Common, from which a large revenue may be looked for. The directors have ascertained that five hundred fillets of veal and an equal num ber of rounds of beef are annually consumed in pic-nics ; and having secured the services of a celebrated engineer, of Vaux hall-slice celebrity, they calculate that the cuttings may be conducted on the most economical principles. The provisional committee are daily engaged in trying experiments at the board on the best means of supplying the alimentary canal, and the deposits paid by shareholders will be devoted to the pre liminary expenses which are being now incurred for the pur pose alluded to. Prospectuses and further particulars may be had at the company's temporary offices on the Eel Pie Island ; nd in the mean time it is hoped that the announcement of ache Humphrey as chairman, will inspire the public withcon fidence in the solidity of the undertaking.—Punch. MELANCHOLY DEATH OF THE AFRICAN ROSCICS —LLANIDI.OES, JULY 28. —lt is with extreme regret I have to inform you of a most melancholy and fatal accident that oc curred to Mr. Aldridge, the African Roscius. From the in terest you and your friends took in him during his sojourn among you, I feel satisfied that you would sympathise in his friends' bereavement, and the loss to the stage of one of its most promising ornaments. Mr. A. was returning in his car riage from the seat of Colonel Powell, where he had been driving about, and when within half a mile of this town one 'of the horses took fright at the blaze of light from the iron-works with which this country is studded; this occurred on the brink of a precipice, over which the carriage swerved with its in mate, dragging the horses and postilion, who had net time to disengage himself. The footman had a most providential escape ; he was in the act of alighting to seize the horses heads as the carriage was precipitated over the cliff. It is needless to add that Mr. Aldridge, - the postilion, and horses were killed upon the spot—the arriag i. e beinf4' dashed to a to ms. The place where this frightful accident occurred is Kerry Evening the summit to the bottom. — Corr es p ondent oft he 10 feetm s. Evening Post. q(la r information EXTENSIVE ROBBERIES.—On'.... ur.

HENRY HUNT'S SON.—On Tuesday afternoon the remains of Mr. Hunt, the only surviving son of the late Henry Hunt, the celebrated advocate of Universal Suffrage, and who for many years represented Preston in Parliament, were in terred in the new burial-ground, near the Old Church, Lam beth. The deceased, who is the subject of this notice, suc ceeded his father in the extensive blacking-manufactory, which his father, amidst the turmoil of political agitation, established in Broadwall, Blackfriars; but as he did net possess the spirit or enterprise of his father, the business soon went to decay, and for several years past he subsisted partly upon an annuity, and partly on the bounty of his late father's political friends. The deceased was the last of an ancient family, and the only one that had obtained notoriety was his father, who began his political career as a Universal Suffrage and Annual Parliament man, and continued to advocate those principles till the close of his political career. Henry Hunt, the younger, during his father's lifetime, made the tour of Europe, and travelled through the whole of the United States of America and Canada.. For some time past he had been living in a very retired manner at No. 41, George-street, liegent-street, Lambeth. About five weeks ago he was attacked with illness, a nd he died on Wed nesday. July 30, in the 45 th year of his age. Many of his fathers political friends wished to follow the remains of the deceased to the grave as mourners, but the offer was declines! by those who had the management of the funeral ; and the mourners consisted only of his lase father's servant, a very old man, who said he had witnessed the burial of three generations of the Hunts; Mr. Mackintosh, pre irietor of the Old lied Lion Tavern, Westminster-bridge ; the brother of Mr. Mackin tosh, Mr. Braithwaite, the deceased's solicitor ; \lr. M'Der mot and Mr. Newman, his medical attendants ; and Mr. El more, the horse-dealer, of Ockendon. The deceased has left a widow, from whom he has been separated many years, in consequence of a distressing malady, under which she is still labouring. Mr. Henry Hunt obtained considerable notoriety during his.father's lifetime by driving a blacking-van, drawn by eight horses, across the Serpentine River, while it was frozen over. He was greatly respected, and a more estimable man never existed. His mother is still living at Bath, and is upwards of fourscore years old.

DEATH or BERNARD CAVANAGH, TIIE FASTING Max.—This individual, who three or four years since excited some attention in the metropolis by professing to exist without sustenance, liquid or solid, expired on Sunda) last, in Ilucoat S lane, in his thirty-second sear. He had recently kept a huckster's shop, in which he had failed. He had gone by an assumed name, and his right one did not transpire till s hortly before his death. His brother, who was with him when he exhibited himself in London, was present. The deceased was of parsimonious habit a, and often reduced to great extremities, but has left money in the Bank.
