Proceeding along the Pottery Valley in a northwardly direction, the line will form 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 Hare castle Hill, and to be 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 Lanca.hire and Yorkshire ; 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 Board 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 Ports of Gloucester and Bristol as well as the south-west of England. By the projected line, thew, 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 be 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 admitted ; 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 ap 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 Chebsey, 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 desti tute condition in regard to railway accommodation ; and it is to supply this deficiency, so grievously felt 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 instance, 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 the 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 place in that source of traffic. In respect to coals and 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 from 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 [ADVERTISEMENT.] GEORGE HUDSON, ESQ. SIR,-I now enclose a reply I have had from the friend who accompanied me at Derby, on the 20th of January, who, it appears, has not yet left England. Permit me to add, as it may give additional weight to his opinions, that Mr. Edden (the writer) is a gentle man of the highest respectability, a member of the Irish bar, and just about to be called to the English bar by the Honourable Society of Lincoln's Inn, and that I have not seen him since the 20th of January, nor have I had any conversation or communication whatever with him on the subject referred to in his letter, save a note I addressed to him on Saturday last (in duplicate to York shire and to Ireland), requesting to know if I had re presented matters correctly or not. I am, Sir, yours respectfully, ALEXANDER M'HAFFIE. Kensington Park, London, Feb. 26, 1845. MR. EDDEN'S LETTER REFERRED TO IN THE ABOVE. MY DEAR WHAFFIE,—In consequence ofyour having directed your letter of the 21st to Wath-hall, and of in) having left Yorkshire some days since, I did not receive it till now. In reply to it, I have no hesitation in stating, that I understood the remarks of Mr. Hudson, made to Mr. Beckett Denison, M.P., at the Railway-station at Derby, on the 20th of last month, with respect to the dishonest getting of money to have reference to the " London and York Railway Company," and none whatever to Mr. Denison in his private capacity. I also recollect per fectly having told Mr. Denison (after his having applied rather harsh epithets to Mr. Hudson), that I had so un derstood the latter gentleman, and that one of our fellow travellers said several times that he had put the same construction on the observation of Mr. Hudson. My impression at the time was, that all the gentlemen in the carriage entertained the same opinion. I may as well add that the conduct of Mr. Hudson on the occasion was most forbearing, and that he seemed to regret much that his remarks bad been misconstrued by Mr. Denison. I am, my dear WHatfle, yours sincerely, JOHN WILLIAM EDDEN. 6, Vaughan•parade, Torquay, Devonshire, Feb. 24. To A. M'Haffie, Esq., Kensington-park. RAILWAY BUSINESS IN PARLIA MENT.

FOREIGN. On Monday afternoon the King of the Frencl4 accom panied by Colonel Dumas, and two orderly .officers, paid a visit to N'euillv, but returned to the Tuileries to dinner. In the evening their Majesties received the Ministers of Marine and Commerce, the President of the Chamber of Deputies, the Duke de Preslin, the Marquis de PAngle, the Baron de Bourgoing, General Derainle, and Colonel Count d'Orakon. "Last night," says the Currier Francais of Tuesday, "the Court treated themselves to the amusement of a visit aux flambeaux to the Louvre galleries. Tour footmen dragged two cars with arm chairs, in which the King Until - he Queen sat. Ten footmen carried reflector lanterns, placed on the ends of long poles." The same paper states that Louis Pl,ilippe will spend a part of the summer at the Chateau d'Eu, it here works on art extensive scale are proceeding. M. Villemain (says the Recite de Paris) ham resumed his functions of Perpetual Secretary of the French Academy. The honourable member, in a short and lucid address, thanked his colleagues for the very marked sympathy which thee; had evinced for him on a late painful occasion, which .fortunately was now only a reminiscence. The results of the census of Paris in the year 1841 has just been published, from which it appears that in Paris, properly so called, including the garrison (23,228 men), the number ' of inhabitants was then 935,261. The next census takes place at the end of the present year. "Government," observes the Revue de Paris; "have re ceived dispatches from our Ambassador in Switzerland, and they have just sent him instructions relative to the crisis which the Cantons are at this moment undergoing. M. Pon tois is instructed to declare to the Diet that, in accordance with the other Powers, France will not interfere in the affairs of the country, so long as they will follow their legal course, but that she is determined on maintaining in itaintegrity the constitution of the 7th of August, 1815, which was f ree l y assented to by the Cantons, and approved fby the Eurcpeaa Powers." A letter from Zurich, of the 20th says :—" The Executive Council has desired the Council of War to dismiss as promptly as possible all the troops that have been assen.. bled, with the exception of one company, to act as a guard .1 . .. of honour to the Diet. The Vorort has invited the Canton of Lucerne to withdraw its troops from the frontier." The King of Sweden and Norway opened the Storthing of the latter country at Christiana on the 10th instant. In his speech on this occasion, after paying an affecting tribute of t veneration to the memory of his father, he assured the assem bly that his dearest wish was to realise all the paternal views of the deceased Sovereign for the welfare of his people, and the cordial union of the two countries on principles of strict ustice and equality. In addition to the comet recently seen at Berlin, Paris, and London, M. Colla, the astronomer of Parma, announces that he has discovered another; and in the log of Captain Hilafre Gautier, who has arrived lately at Marseilles, a third is mentioned. The latter is said to be placed between the two stars No. 11 of Eridanus, and 16 of the Atlas of Harding. This comet disappeared at the moment when Captain Gautier approached the equator. The Augsburgh Gazette says :—" We have before us a letter from Cairo, of the 21st January, announcing that 8 letter has been received from M. d'Abadie, dated Aden the 17th of October, in whi c h h e says t h at h e has discovered the source of the White Nile, in the Ganira country." LAW Tho m a s lt At the Carlisle Assizes Robertshaw, a quack doc tor, was convicted of manslaughter, and sentenced . to four months' imprisonment. He prescribed jalap and corrosive sublimate for a man named Coulthard, who had died from the effects of the dose. Matthew Paris, and his wife, Anne Paris, were jointly in dicted at the Middlesex Sessions, charged with having wilfully omitted to provide sufficient meat, drink, and sustenance for Robert Paris, their son ; and in a second count, charging them with having confined the said Robert Paris in a certain cellar, and refusing to sup ply him with sufficient meat and drink, between the Ist day of August, 1844, and the 12th of February, 1845. The jury were in the act of considering their verdict, when the judge intimated to the * prisoners that it would be better for them to withdraw their plea of Not Guilty, and plead Guilty. The prisoners, after some hesitation, adopted this course. His Lordship then ordered Paris to enter into his recognisance in 20/., and in the same sum for his wife, to come when called he upowne;nladndhearif henetremaeterde om eup for judgment his children with w more kindness, about it. At Clerkenwell, Thomas Shaw was charged by Mrs. Jane Johnson, of Gloucester -st ree t, Gl oucester - square, with bur glariously entering her dwelling-house. The prosecutrix, on Tuesday night last, was alarmed by a noise, and on entering the parlour with a female friend, they found the prisoner concealed under the bed. They called " Murder!" and the prisoner was given into custody. Some lucifer matches were found in his possession, and a parcel of duplicates. He was remanded. COITILT-1 1 .A.SRIONABLE. The Duchess of Kent will take her departure on Friday from Frogmore House. for Clarence House, St. James's. The Royal Duchess will be accompanied by the Countess of Wratislau, and attended by Lady Fanny Howard, and Col. Sir George Cowper, Bart. Her Royal Highness gave a small dinner party at Frogmore House on Wednesday evening. Viscountess Palmerston has issued cards for the first of a series of soirees, to commence on Saturday next, at her Lady ship's mansion on Carlton House• terrace. Lord and Lady Charles Beauclerk have arrived in Ring street from Ankerwycke House. Earl Fortescue has arrived in Grosvenor-square from his Lordship's seat, Castle-hill, near Southmolton, Devon. The Dowager Countess Fortescue is passing the winter at her seat, Wear Gifford, Devon. The Dowager Countess of Pembroke has arrived at Earl Bruce's, Pall-mall, from her Ladyship's seat, Wilton House, near Salisbury. The Countess will remain at the residence of the Noble Earl, until the repairs of her Ladyship's man slow are completed. The marriage of Miss Cecilia Neil Douglas, second ltaugh_ ter of the Commander of the Forces in Scotland, Major-Ge neral Sir Neil Douglas, K.C.8., K.C.H., with the Hon.

MISCELLANEOUS. The Commissioners of Customs have received a letter from Mr. Cardwell, one of the Secretaries to the Lords Commis sioners of the Treasury, to the effect that he had been com manded by their Lordships to state to the Board that infor mation had been received from various quarters of the preva lence of an infectious disorder among cattle, in several parts of the Continent, and to desire that they would give direc tions to their officers carefully to examine any cattle imported into this country, and in the event of their appearing to be infected with any disorder, n o t t o p erm it t h em to be landed without inspection and report as to their soundness, by sonic competent person, and to report the circumstances immedi ately to the Board. The monument which was subscribed for by the friends of the late Dr. Arnold has been for some time in the chapel at Rugby. It was executed in Caen stone by Mr. John Thomas; the figure is recumbent, under a rich Gothic ca nopy, and has given so much satisfaction to the Committee •that they have rewarded the artist with 100/. beyond the sum agreed upon. . On Saturday night, or early on Sunday morning. the tower of Brodick Castle, near Arran, fell with a terrible crash. The old Castle had been injured by the late storms, and seve ral of the lintels had been rent. Workmen were employed in repairing the damage, no fewer than sixteen being working on it on Saturday last. Providentially the fall was during the time when no one was about it. On Wednesday morning, about seven o'clock, as police constable No. 72, belonging to the G division, was on duty in Red Lion-square, he observed a bundle lying in the en closure; he got over the railings, and, having opened it. found a fine female infant, dead, wrapped up in a common stuff apron. The constable immediately removed the body to St. Giles's workhouse, to await a coroner's inquest. Lord Albert Conyngham, the President of the Archmologi cal Association. has resigned his position as the head of that association. A public meeting of the society is about to be held, in consequence of some unpleasant squabbles in the com mittee. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Feb. 27.

" A Visit to a Circassian Chief," by IL WaltPr D'Arcy, is equally worthy of a perusal, and describes a part of the world still more interesting. "Conversations in the National Gallery," evidently pro. seeds from some one well acquainted with art.

Ity the 22d of April every part of the works will be finished, when, in ac cordance with the resolutions of the general meeting of the Pro prietors, held on the 15th day of February, last year, the Directors have fixed the toll to be collected at one half-penny for each pas senger. An objection was taken to the propriety of throwbig open the bridge to the public for four weeks, on the ground that the novelty of the structure would induce a large number of persons to pass offer it for some time after its opening, and that, consequently, considerable profit would arise therefrom for division among the Shareholders. It was explained that althoagh the bridge would be in a condition fir the public to pass over it on the 24th of March, yet that it would be impossible to fix the toll-gates and tell-tales by that time ; and that the proposed four weeks gratuitous use of the bridge would be a benefit and gratification to thousands, and not result in any pecu niary injury to the Shareholders. The Shareholders, however, per sisted in their determination to oppose tho recommendation of the Directors, and a resolution was passed to the effect that the bridge, should not be opened till it was in a fit state for toll to be take,; and that the toll be a halfpenny. It was next resolved that the plan of issuing return tickets be postponed for the consideration of the next meeting. The report of the Directme thus amended. and tho engineer's report, and statement of accounts, were then adopted.

JL..11" " Mr. HALSE, late of this c ount y , 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. liaise, like a true philosopher, conceived that it may be possible to select the good and discard the evil effects of the apparatus, and after 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 tile 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 eert July are; for, a short time since, we called on Mr. liaise, and were introduced to him by a gentleman who was undergoing the operation. The patient Informed us that it was not at all au unplea sant sensation, indeed we felt it Oarselves, and there was not the least unpleasantness about it. This gentleman's case was paralysis, and he de, lared to us that before he came to Mc. liaise one leg had withered away to mere skeleton ; " but now, said he, ft yen perceive it is both stout and healthy." Such, indeed, was the case. Thve can judge by the number of patients Mr. liaise has, we should say he is making some very wonderful cares, for his house is crowded from morning till night. Persons wishing to have Mr. Raise's pamphlet are informed that it will be forwarded free, on receipt of two postage stamps.

Among the 10,000 in use, they have been adopted by the oftizial aut➢orities of the Houses of Parliament, Woolwich Dock-yard, Somerset-house, Foreign-office, Thames Tunnel, United Service, Reform, Conservative, and other Club-houses, the Queen's Theatre, Chinese Exhibition, and many other large establishments. Upwards of 20,000,000 cubic feet of gas have passed through some of these meters without regula tion or repair, and which are still working to the entire satisfaction of the gas company and consumers. All gas consumers who study economy and a good light are invited to avail themselves of the advantages and comfort to be derived from tile use of Defries's Dry Meter, but, to prevent the substitution of im perfect imitations, it is necessary at all times to order Defiles's Dry Meter, and to observe his name on the brass badge in front of all his meters.

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 Hygeian treatment he would not only have preserved his foot, but would also have im proved his 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 Is. 6d. each ! 140 wonder the trade of doctor has been so lucrative. It is solely be cause the Hygeian system does away with all such quackery that doctors have so shamefully opposed it.
