A 'LL{,)e LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, MAY 11, 1836, Lord WILLIAM PAGET has arrived at Plymouth on hoard his Majesty's ship Salamander, with dis patches fur Colonel CARBONELL, the Commissioner for the Spanish Government in London. The late arrival in town of his Lordship prevents us from pub lishing these dispatches to-day. The following is the official account of the killed, wounded, and missing : Captains . Liutenants . Brigadier• Generals Co nets Lieutenan.- Colonels Majors Captains 5 sergeants Rank and File WOUNDED. 21 Lieutenants 3 Ensigns 2 Sergeants 9 Rank and File 20 Total, 823 killed, wounded, or missing. We regret to announce that in the list of danger ously wounded we find the names of Colonels T UPPER and CONSIDINE. The former is one of the bravest officers belonging to the Legion ; and such was the high state of discipline to which he brought the men under his Cotnman:l, that General CORDOVA pro nounced them a credit to the service. The' British Legion performed prodigies of valour during the engagement. The cool and determined energy with which men who had never before faced an enemy advanced to the charge, filled even their enemies with admiration of their courage. There was not a man of them who did not emulate the gallantry of the most hardy veterans—of soldiers who had won laurels under the command of WELLINGTON. The loss sustained by the Legion will be replaced be re-inforcements from thin country. On Friday the Royal Tar will sail for St. Sebastian with three hundred volunteers ; and next week five hundred more will embark from Portsmouth and Liverpool to join their countrymen on the Heights of St. Sebastian. Although the victory was dearly purchased, we cannot but - regard it as most important, and highly creditable to, this country. The war has now begun in good earnest. The 33d clause of the Tithe Commutation Bill passed the Committee in the Commons last night. Thi s is the clause which establishes the principle on which the tithe is to be converted into a rent-charge, and is therefore the most important in the whole Bill. Lord JOHN RUSSELL prcposed some verbal altera tions, in order to make the language of the clause, as it stands 'in the amended Bill, more clear and d2rmit e ; but there is no deviation frntn the oriLvin , l principle— namely, that the value of tba tithe is esimated s, , according to the average value of the 133 t s ~ o years, due allowance .being made for the expense of cr 1- lecting, preparing for sale, and marketing.; and Oat where the tithes have been compounded for, e amount of the composition shall be considered the clear val of such tithe. It was objected by some memliers that the average of the last seven years would be too heavy a burden on lands that might, eventually go out of cultivation alto gether ; which objection appears to us eminently ab surd. It is true we cannot see into the futture, and it is possible that in an age so fertile in improvements as the present, some happy genius may hit upon an inven tion to enable people to live without food ; but we do not think it would be absolute wisdom to suspend our legislative operations in the expectation that this inven tion is about to burst upon the world. We think it more prudent to proceed with such lights to guide us, as we can gather from past experience and common sense. These tell us that as mankind increase in numbers they require a greater quantity of food to support them, and as the population of this country is increasing by a quarter of a million or more every year, we take it for granted that the general rule will apply to them, and that an increased quantity of produce will be an nually raised from the soil. Those who demur to this reasoning, may find it corroborated in the evidence adduced before the Agricultural Committee, by which it appears, that the quantity of wheat raised in England has been augmented by a fifth, or even a larger proportion, within the last three or four years. As to laying down corn-fields in grass, let those who are disposed to enter into such speculations look at what is going on in the more dis tant parts of the country. The cattle that used to be sent from Scotland to fatten in the English pastures are now fattened at home, and sent direct by steam to Smithfield. This traffic is now carried on to a great extent, and is capable of very great increase. Its effect must be to create a competition with the English grazier, and to render grass land much less valuable to him than it has hitherto been. Sir E. KNATCHBULL moved an amendment, to the effect that the quality of the soil should be taken into account i❑ estimating the average. This amendment was negatived by 111 to 51. Another amendment, moved by Mr. RICHARDS, to provide against the pay ment of rent-charge, when lands shall be cut up in mining, was also negatived by 171 to 54. The Clause was then agreed to. The Ladies, it appears, are to be admitted into the strangers' gallery of the House of Commons on the first of June next—the " Glorious First of June," once remarkable for Lord HOWE'S victory over the French fleet, and now a second time remarkable for Mr. GRANTLEY BERKELEY'S victory over English prejudice. We have no doubt the ladies will reward the services of their gallant champion, by presenting him with the freedom of Almacks in a gold snufr-box. This is the very least he deserves at their hands, for no one can tell what difficulties he has had to contend against ; first, in keeping Hon. Members to their posts at " dinner-time"—see his own confession in the last discussion on the subject—and secondly, in sub duing the obstinacy of such vulgar pounds—shillings— and pence—opponents as Sir E. KNATCHBUL Li, who insisted on having " an estimate of the expence" before he acceded to the motion. But, thank Heaven, Mr. GRANTLEY BERKELEY, confident in the justice of his cause, has triumphed over all opposition ;"and henceforth we may expect to see the debates conducted with some degree of temper and decency. Nor do we imagine that the arrangements necessary for the ad mission of the fair sex into the gallery, will be attended with the slightest extra expense. Sir EDWARD KNATCIIBULL, and those who think with him, may rest satisfied on this head ; for though the erection of additional seats will undoubtedly cost something, yet the balance will be righted by the great saving that will take place in lights ; for who will need lamp or chandelier when so many bright, sunny eyes, are showering down lustre from the gallery ! The following paragraph appears in the Liverpool Times, received this morning:— " We have it on good authority that it is in contemplation by the East India Company to raise the duties upon all manu factured goods, imported into the East Indies from this country, should Ministers any longer delay to equalize the duties upon East India produce." We believe that our Contemporary has been misin formed with respect to the intentions of the East India Company. But whether or no, the question is the less important, as the Company cannot impose addi tional duties on English produce, without the consent of the British Legislature. The equalization of duties prayed for by the Company will shortly be submitted to Parliament by the Government. The Paris Papers of Monday have all been received. The Monitcur of that day contains the following tele graphic communication from Bayonne : " The Carlists have evacuated the Cerdagne. Gurrea ar rived at Marrinet only two hours after the departure of the Carlists. who were obliged to abandon part of their booty, after having destroyed a score of houses. On the 4th instant the same General attacked the Carlists at Alas, killed some of their men, and set at liberty 103 prisoners. His brigade is now refreshing itself at Seu d'Urgcl. Colonel Sebastien is pursuing the enemy in the direction of Fournol. On the 25th ult., Eguia, at the head of fourteen battalions, attacked Ge neral Espeletta in front of Balmaceda ; but this General, who bad only eight battalions, resisted until nightfall without losing his position. He was attacked again the next day without any better success, and received in the combat a slight wound. Eguia has sustained considerable loss : on the 30th ult. he bias at Llodio. Cordova left Vittoria on the 27th, marching unon Orduna and Balmaceda with 12,000 men, and was re joined at Losa by Espeletta." This intelligence is important. After the campaign has opened in real earnest, we shall hear less of de- Tees for the assassination of old women. The Gene rals on both sides will have plenty of opportunities for signalizing themselves, without being reduced to the ne cessit .king war upon the defenceless: ;e:. yof ►na. upon The following is the copy of a letter from General EVANS, giving an account of the victory gained by the British Legion on the sth insmnt. We regret to find that the Gallant General's loss has been more than double the number published in the Journal de Pari!., as communicated to the French Government by telegraph. The loss of the'Carlists is not stated, but it must have been very great. The letter is dated " Heights of St. Sebastian," and was written imme diately after the achievement of so signal a victory:— " I have only time to refer to the important success gained by Her Majesty's forces this day. The whole of the enemy's works, which they bad been for four months incessantly con structing, have been carried, after a sharp struggle, by assault. They are now in our possession, with the artillery by which they were defended, and we shall in the course of a few days have levelled or destroyed them. I lament to say this victory has not been gained without considerable loss. It has been as yet impossible to collect the list of casualties, hilt I am afraid it cannot be less in killed and wounded than 60 or 70 officers, and 600 or 700 men. The Spanish and Bri tish troops rivalled each other in their persevering gal lantry, and the difficulties of the operations required it. It is impossible for me to describe the gallant and opportune co operation Her Majesty's troops received from Commodore Lord John Hay, commanding the British squadron on this station. His Lordship came into the bay at day-break, and a few mo ments after the action commenced, having with him the steamer frigate Pficenix, the Salamander and Comet, and bringing two regiments of the Legion, the 4th and Bth, under Lieutenant Colonel Godofrey and Major Harley, which immediately afterwards rendered valuable services. The Bri tish ships opened a most effective cannonade against the enemy's last entrenchments, and the exactness with which the shells were shrown from the _Phoenix at 1,500 yards was quite extraordinary. Some of these struck the enemy's works, and made a brer.ch through them, which our troops entered. The enemy defended - themselves with more than usual obstinacy. but were eventually, on all the points of their line, put completely to the rout.". There is no domestic news of any interests in the French . Pa'pers of Monday. Their accounts from the Noah of Spain, furnished by correspondents, some of whom are engaged in the struggle now going forward on the side of the QUEEN, and others holding ap pointments under the Usurper, arc of the most con flicting character. But fortunately we are no longer dependent upon them for authentic intelligence from the theatre of war. The following are extracts from the Journals received this morning : PARIS, MAY 9. —The letters from the Isle of Bourbon are to Jan. 30, and at that time the agitation caused by the arrest of the men of colour, was beginning to be allayed. The legal investigation was proceeding, but the result was still a secret. BAYONNE, MAY 4:—ThCmail from Madrid and the Pro vinces is not yet arrived. The snow is the sole cause of this delay. It has fallen to the depth of four or five feet at Pam peluna, where the cold is excessive. It is seriously in con templation to form a new department, to be called the Depart ment of the Adour, and especially to make Bayonne the chief town of the Prefecture. It is certain that such a change has become necessary, at least as much for the interest of the ge neral administration of the Kingdom, as of that of all this country. The want of it has long been felt—it has been wished for and talked about in the country, but nobody had hitherto taken the trpuble to draw up a formal application, with the reasons in its favour, to be laid before the Government. Our Chamber of Commerce has at length taken the matter up. It is proposed, in order to form this Department, to unite with the arrondissement of Bayonne, that of Dax and that of Maullon, which are equally interested in the change. A Memorial on this subject has been in circulation for some days past,in these three arrondissements. It has already been signed by all the citizens to whom it has been presented, espe cially the electors, and others of all ranks, who have ally share in the public administration.--/Ifessayer, May 9.

The German Journals are filled with accounts of the expected festivities at Presburgh, during the coronation of his Imperial Ma jesty the Emperor of AUSTRIA, as King of HUN GARY. By advices from Constantinople to the 9th of April, it appears that some stir has been made in that capital, in consequence of the unceremonious seizure and confinement of a Doctor GLUCK, a Prussian subject, and the attendant of an Hospital, by one of the officers of the SULTAN, for not having shewn sufficient expedition in curing the patients committed to his charge, and subsequently for not consenting to be dis missed when such was the pleasure of the said officer. It was first reported that GLUCK had been bastinadoed, but it appears that he had only been forcibly confined. The affair has made a great noise among the diploma tists of Russia, Prussia, and Austria. • Letters and Papers from Madrid, to the 3dinstant, have been received this morning. The Ministry, with the exception of the Marine Department, has been completed, to the great satisfaction of the friends of MEND/ZA BAL. It is said , that General RoDIL, as Minister of War, will proceed forthwith to the North of Spain, where his presence will serve to animate the troops, and put a check upon the intrigues,of COR DOVA, who is now a general object of suspicion. The President of the Council will have a powerful opposition to contend against in the Chamber of Pro ceres, but hitherto his firmness, and the great support which he derives from public opinion, has enabled him to crush every effort that has been made for his removal fr3m office. We understand that he contemplates raising a fresh loan, with a view to prevent the sacri fice of the Church property—for at present to sell it, would be to sacrifice it at less than a fiftieth of its real value. We omitted to state yesterday in our report of the proceedings in the House of Lords, that the Bristol and Exeter Railway Bill passed the House on Mon day night. The managers of this useful undertaking, it ►s sa►d, confidently expect that the line to Taunton will be completed in two years. Forty-one miles out of the forty-four are a perfect level. Notwithstanding the frantic opposition of the Liver pool Tories, a public meeting of the Reformers of that town took place on Monday, for the purpose of ad dressing the Kin° and the House of Commons, in favour of the Irish Corporation Bill. This meeting was infinitely more numerously and respectably at tended, than the Conservative one which took place a few days previously ; there being not less than five thousand persons present, and amongst them some of the most wealthy, influential, and intelligent gentle men of the neighbourhood. The resolutions, which are four in number, were all carried by acclamation, not a dissentient hand twing held up. We subjoin one of them, as it is remarkable for its energetic, but strictly constitutional spirit :—" That this m ee ti ng laments that an obstacle should be opposed to this great and just object by the act of any branch of the legislature, and is decidedly of opinion that a refusal, on the ground of party or religious distinction, to grant to the sister-kingdom a participation in the privileges accorded, as of right, to the inhabitants of this coun try, is calculated to foster and increase that dangerous spirit of discontent, jealousy and disunion, which has so long prevailed in that unhappy country." We have no doubt that other great towns in the kingdom will promptly follow the example set by the Liverpool Reformers, and petition the legislature in favour of " equal justice" to Ireland. KING'S THEATRE. —What was least to have been anticipated in the musical world has just occurred — a rival to Paganini has arisen, and in a Scandinavian gentleman, who rejoices in the strange yet familiar appellation of. Ole, or Olaus, Bull. Mr. Bull is young enough to be the son of Paganini, and instead of a swarthy southern aspect, he has the fair looks and locks of the Baltic regions. In his manner of playing he reminds us, in some degree, of Paganini, by the familiarity, if we may use the expression, with which he fondles his instru ment. His attitude is unaffected ;he plays without a score and with fervid energy, in which he seems to lose all conscious ness of the presence of the auditory. He is quite a matter of all known difficulties in the mechanique of his art, and he uses his skill with taste and feeling. He also manages, in a very masterly manner, to harmonise three and sometimes four strings at once, and executes double shakes with as much facility as other performers would their simple notes. Mr. Bull's com positions, as far as we can judge of them, in two concertos or fantasias which he executed at a rehearsal in the King's Theatre yesterday, abound in feeling and delicacy, but they are not very coherent in point of connection. HOUSE OF COMMONS. CO.IIMI7'TEE ON DUBLIN AND DROGHEDA RAILWAY. Jovis, 5 (lie Mail,. 1836. Mr. O'CONNELL in the Chair. OPENING SPEECH. Mr. HARItISON—Sir, I am perfectly aware that the duty of any Advocate, intrusted with opening the case of a Railroa'l, is now brought into a very narrow compass ; a few years ago, all the general topics of carrying such a scheme into effect with safety and advantage, were matters of eager discussion, but experience has taught us the extended use that can be made of Railroads, by the intercourse that immediately takes place. The superiority, too, of the i n t e r c ommunication through their intervention, over the common and ordinary con veyances along the road, has been so completely proved, and especially in the instance of that Railway which was opened about two years and a half ago between Dublin and Kings town, that it would he unnecessary for me to make any fur ther observations. I had better, therefore, confine myself to the particular subject of the present investigation—the Rail road proposed by this particular Bill from Dublin to Drogheda. There is a Company petitioning here, and I thought it better to make no objection to the reception of that petition, because I consider it advisable that all petitions should come before the Committee, inasmuch as there is great doubt as to the ex tent to which Railroads in particular stages are advanced, un less they come before the House, and are the subject of inves tigation before a Committee. I therefore thought it best, as is the practice in some Committees, to take no objection to the petition ; on the contrary, thinking that there are other peti tioners who have a right to be heard, according to ancient usage, to protect their property, by showing that another line would be equally advantageous to the public ; I, therefore, preferred that all the petitioners should conic before the Com mittee, and I prefer it on another ground, with reference to the competing_ line. I certainly prefer meeting that to leaving it open ; and there are some transactions I can state to the Committee, which, I am quite sure, will place those for whom I appear upon a very high ground of advantage. Sir, the Railroad which is proposed to be established goes from Dublin to Drogheda, along the line of the coast, and maps have been handed in to show the Committee the actual nature and extent of the Railroad, and the peculiarities with reference to the line, as passing along the sea coast, which, in one of the petitions, is considered as disadvantageous, in censequence of its comparison with the inland line, which some of the parties consider preferable, because the inland line wants the assistance of a railroad more than the line of sea coast, though it may at some future stage, when the other Rail road is brought under the cognizance of a Committee be ne cessary to enter fully into the considerations of its merits. It will now suffice to observe, that its accomplishment must de pend upon the general nature and line of country going in land, instead of going along the line of coast where is not such a population as to make it possible that a railroad could be established with a prospect of its being kept up for the be nefit and advantage of the public, because I need hardly state that the Act of Parliament requires that the amount of traffic, and extent of population, and all such other circumstances, should be gone into and proved, and reported to the House. They are all founded upon circumstances existing in this coun try, that all public works should be carried on by private ex penditure and private enterprise, and it is clear that nothing can be more for the benefit of the public than works of this description. It is also evident there must be some benefit to the persons who seek to establish such works. They, in short, must receive such a fair remuneration as will enable them to keep up the works, because, otherwise, the public ultimately will have no advantage ; there will be a useless expenditure, a waste and cutting up of property, and, in fact, no benefit whatsoever will ultimately result to the public. unless the work from the traffic upon it, (and traffic arid use in the most ge neral _lse of the term) be enabled to remunerate the indivi duals who were concerned, and in its establishment :and main tenance. This must be to ensure to the public its continuance, and that it should be kept up in such a way as may be avail able for the public use. I believe it will ultimately appear, be yond all possibility of doubt, when the population of the com peting line shall be brought into comparison, one way or •the other with ours, that it is impossible the other line should be adopted. That will be one material feature for considera tion. because, if that ultimately turns out, upon investigation, to be the state of the competing line, it will be a decided objec tion, independent of any other circumstance that it might ap ply to it. I need hardly (having the honour of addressing Mem bers who will understand the locality) go into any minute de scription of one railroad with respect to the places by which it passes, than to say the vicinity of Dublin forms part of the Railroad, and that it comes near to Balriggan on its way to Drogheda. The experience of what has taken place be tween Dublin and Kingstown, by means of the increase of traffic, if I may so apply the term which is generally applied to passengers as well as goods leaves no doubt that various little branches might be made from the Railroad down to the seve ral points upon the coast, whose connection with Dublin would be most valuable to the towns themselves, whether large or small, and most valuable in another respect, because along the coast, as Hon. Members acquainted with it are perfectly well aware, there are a variety of places in which fishing boats are constantly employed in obtaining fish for Dublin mar ket. Now there is nothing in which a speedy conveyance, particularly under the circumstance of the winds being adverse, is more absolutely important. The subject is one which has been taken into very deep consideration by some of those Com mittees in which Railroads have been discussed during the Sessions. The forming facilities for 'bringing fish with speed to the market from the coast, has been in these regarded as a material feature. On the eastern coast it was considered a subject of importance to connect Yarmouth with the City of London; and on the south-eastern also, Railways were re garded as of great importance, as affording in communication with the City of London a more rapid and certain mode of conveyance than the present, whereby goods sustain consider able damage, and sometimes are entirely lost :—next Railways in going along the coast, and affording facilities to places along their lines, insure great benefits to the public by means of the market being supplied with fresh articles. Thus whilst suc cess attends the Railroad by the traffic upon it, at the same time it insures to persons who have occupations in the markets, that the articles in which they deal will be supplied to them daily. It is necessary I should now state what I shall prove hereafter; it is, that in consequence of some difficulty that occurs near Melverton, going through some difficult ground, and passing some property, it was desirable to avoid, the line is proposed to be altered according to the red mark. You see the blue making a bend towards the sea coast; for this devia tion consent must be proved ; and Hon. Members arc aware there is a standing order particularly applicable to circum stances of this description. lion. Members are perfectly well aware that, although land cannot be taken beyond the limits that have been marked out by the Parliamensary line, there is no possible objection to altering' the line of. Railroad by any deviation which may be more advantageous either to pro perty or to the line, or in any way beneficial with respect to saving expense, provided the party over whose land such alte ration is proposed, has given Isis consent. Where consent is given, the standing order requires that the plan as altered and drawn with the deviations upon it, and certified by the Speaker, should be deposited in the Bill Office, and there it remains, in compliance with the Standing Order, to which I will now call the attention of the Committee.—( The Learned Counsel read the part alluded to from the Standing Order, and proceeded with his remarks. ) That Standing Order was made ex pressly for the purpose of permitting a deviation, whenever such deviation was required, either upon the ground of con venience or saving of expense, or of getting rid of the diffi culties with reference to tunnels, or the formation of cuttings or embankments, or of what is much more frequently the case, namely, avoiding interference with the property of the person who objects to that interference. You have a right by the Bill, and an enactment in the Bill, to deviate from your line one hundred yards, because that is left to the engineer, when lie is executing the line ; therefore a deviation within one hundred yards is never noticed by the Committee. The Standing Order was made expressly to meet the case of a de viation from the Parliamentary line of above a hundred yards, and it has been acted upon in numbers of instances ; and if any doubt should arise upon it, I shall be able to show what the meaning of it is—that it is for that only—and it is per fectly useless for any other purpose, because the line within a hundred yards never was made the subject of discussion ; inasmuch as the engineer has a right to go within a hundred yards, and to deviate where it becomes necessary to suit his convenience. It is a phrase constantly used by engineers, that in adjusting their line, to speak technically, they must have a little elhow-roorn—leave to go either to the right or to the left—with the view of facilitating the construction of the Railway, and that never was made the subject of discussion or objection, and requires no case to be mentioned, because the Act itself is an express authority, without anything being said upon it. Before the Committee it is never used but for the purpose I have described. Now the next point to which I will call the attention of the Committe, is one of some impor tance—because it is one of those petitions that has been pre sented by the competing Company, and presented also by other . persons, and the point made is—whether the alleged conve nience would arise from taking the inland line. The promoters of it begin their plan of communication further north, making what is called a grand trunk communication, from which a branch communication may be made to different towns along the de scribed line. Some Hon. Members of the Committee no doubt are aware that a Report has been made this Session of Parlia merit upon the Ulster Railway Bill, and it is therein stated that the proposed Railway is a complete integral line from Belfast to Armagh, &c. &c. &c.—( The Learned Counsel read the Re port of the Committee on the Ulster Railway Bill. )—Much has been asserted in favour of an inland line, but I believe it will turn out upon investigation that there are no such means of traffic along this inland line as would by possibility lay the foundation of that line being made with advantage to the sub scribers, and that it could not be made with advantage to the public for the reasons I have stated. Now I have just alluded to the Report of the Committee upon the Ulster Railway Bill which I have described, and also there is another line that Hon. Members are perfectly aware, proposed to be made from Armagh down to Drogheda, that would in fact communicate from Belfast to Dublin. Belfast is an important point, from its position with respect to the coast of Great Britain_ CIIAIRMAN.—It is very important for other reasons, for trade all over the world. Mr. HARRISON— And then there is the communication from Belfast through the Ulster Canal to Lough Erne, and from thence, by a branch to the line proposed to be brought from Armagh down to Drogheda, and thence along the line now proposed to Dublin ; and there is the communication I have spoken of to the South Western part, there is another Report made by the Engineer of the competing line, which is just put into my hand; he says, with regard to the Drogheda ter minus, " the line may hereafter be carried at very nearly a right angle across the Boyne, at the National School on the west side of the town, and may be extended there on a favour able inclination through the plains of Ardee towards Armagh, and which is sufficiently close to the town of Drogheda fur all purposes of general intercourse ; but, in addition, we have de lineated on the map a terminus at Pitcher Line." Ny,v, with reference to the situation in which these two com peting lines stand, I will state to the Committee a cir cumstance which really does appear to me to be of very great importance with reforence to the conduct that has been pursued by the two parties advocating either line, I am not in the habit of dealing with private petition 3 until they come under consideration, nor do I desire to do any thing more with regard to any other line than may be rendered ab solutely necessary for the purpose of bringing the two fairly into competition before the Committee. They will be good enough to observe that all the resolutions which are now before them have in view the public benefit, only they totally pass by any private interests of individual speculators. They call upon the Committee to enquire, first of :ill, as to the validity of the speculation with reference to the extent and amount, and the persons by whom it is supported. They call upon the Committee to investigate most accurately, and to state in their report most minutely, all the circumstances con nected with the traffic, for the reasons I have stated to the Committee, is order that Parliament may not at this period, when so many bubble schemes, bad as well as good ones, are brought before the public, and are made the subject of specu lation in the market and in the Stock Exchange, in order that Parliament may take into consideration what the public inte rest requires, and investigate most narrowly and minutely to select the best line, without taking into consideration the inte rest of any person either on the one line or the other. To that object it is that all your resolutions are directed ; and all your enquiries under those resolutions have no other view, and can have no other view, than that which I am now humbly submitting to the Committee. It was i❑ that view those for whom I have the honour to appear proposed that both lines should be made the subject of investigation before the Board of Public Works of Ireland, in order that that public body might quietly and dispassionately consider which of the two lines were most likely to tend to the public advantage ; that was positively refused by the other side. We shall call a gentleman, in consequence of his being one of the persons making that proposition, and who wrote to a Noble Lord who was one of the Committee on the Inland Line, expressly stating the evidence he should be called upon to give, and asking that Noble Lord whether the statement contained in his letter was a perfectly correct statement : "MY LORD—I have arrived here, and as it is proba ble I will be examined before the Committee on our Rail way, I may have occasion to allude to the repeated offers made by our Committee to the Nob!emen and Gentlemen of the projected inland line, for a settlement of our differ ences of opinion by an arbitration before the Board of Works. Upon this subject I waited upon your Lordship early in January last, and on the part of our Committee made such proposal in the expedience of which your Lordship appeared to agree, when you were so good as to say you would attend the Committee and submit it at the next meeting. Having in the week before last met your Lordship in Dublin and referred to this offer of arbitration, you were pleased to say you attended the Committee, and with Sir Henry Meredith proposed such course of proceeding, but it was overruled or re jected. As I may have to allude to these circumstances, I would feel pain that any difference of recollection should exist between your Lordship and me upon these points of our conver sation, and before I may have to mention your Lordship's name I would be glad to be informed it' we agree in this statement. " I remain, my Lord, " Very faithfully, (Signed) " THOS. BRODIGAN. " Union Hotel, Cockspur-street, " April 23d, 1836. " To the Right Hon. Lord Killeen, &c. &e." The Answer to that letter is— " MY DEAR SIR,-Haring been at the Curragh Races all last week your letter did not reach me 'till yesterday ; this has occa sioned some delay in sending my reply, which I hope may still arrive before your examination on the Committee. Your re collection of the circumstances is substantially correct. At the meeting which I attended last winter both Sir H. Meredith and I mentioned what had passed when you called on us. Sir Henry proposed no specific resolution, but he suggested your proposal of reference, which certainly then did not appear to be in accordance with the feeling of the majority present, and was, therefore, not pressed; as to myself, although I feel strongly convinced that the Inland line would pro bably form the best trunk to the north, northwest, and west of Ireland, I should feel disposed to con cur, leaving the question to be decided by a competent tribunal here, which would have avoided the great and now unavoidable expense of trying the merits of each line before a Parliamentary Committee, as I quite agree in the observation you made the other day, that it would have been desirable not to spend so much money. I have to thank you for your kind ness in communicating with me, and remain very faithfully yours, (Signed) " KILLEEN. " Dublin, May 2 —To Thomas Brodigan, Esq., &c." Now I have a right to use this document for the purpose of showing the parties for whom 1 appear were looking for a pub lic benefit; they were willing to submit the two propositions which line was the best for the public, and the other proposi. tion to what they considered the most proper tribunal, namely, the Public Board of Works in Ireland, and to abide by their de cision, and I think it impossible for any parties who present them selves to a Committee of the House of Commons in a difficult mat ter of this description, to place themselves upon higher ground. They are not asking a private contract, but they are asking a public benefit, though they expect to derive a private interest themselves, and this is natural and necessary, because without the advancement of private ends public benefits never have been insured—but it appears they were perfectly willing to sacrifice any private interest of their own in reference to that particular description of line to which I have alluded, if it had been decided that it was not a better line than the other. I cannot state, I think, in stronger terms, the foundation upon which I have a right to present myself on behalf of the Com pany who direct this great public measure, than by stating what has occurred in that respect for the purpose of the Committees, the situation in which the parties have placed themselves before they came here ; the original instructions also prove that the engineer was to examine both lines without prejudice in fa vour of one line or the other, and to adopt that line which, ac cording to his judgment as an engineer, with reference to all the circumstances that an engineer is to take into consi deration, was, in his judgment, de beat line, referring not merely to the practical difficulties of the line, or the practical facilities of the line, but referring to the ex pense—referring to the facility with which it could be con structed—referring also to the places through which the line professed to pass—referring to the communica tions that will be made from the line with facility to the dif ferent places most available for the intercourse of society—re ferring to the profits that will arise from the line, and from the traffic proposed to go along the line, and those circumstances which it is so necessary for the engineer to take into consider ation when he is selecting any one line in preference to an other; because, first, an engineer is to look to the points of the two termini ; next is the intermediate country ; and to see with reference to the line which has been chalked out, which line through the intermediate country is likely to be most benefi cial, taking it altogether with a view to traffic upon it, which line is most likely to tend to the future benefit with reference to the facility of the lines to be executed, and the circumstances under which it may be kept up for the benefit of the public, and those dependent upon the extent of line to be made, and if there has been a communication of a more extended de scription with a view of creating valuable intercourse where public intercourse is so important. Now, with respect to the termini, I should also state, that, as you approach the city of Dublin, there can be no comparison between the two. I have got before me a small plan, from which it appears our Dublin terminus comes near the General Post-office. The Committee will find upon the plan the terminus of 'the Railroad of which I am the advocate, marked with red, and that terminus comes close to the docks. It can, without difficulty, be extended to the immediate precincts of the Post. office. The terminus of the other line is in the outskirts of the town, and at a very considerable distance. I need hardly do more than simply show to the Committee two lines, one terminating at a distance from the city of Dublin, and the other getting into the very heart of it ; the other at an elevation of l I J feet, with no pos siblity of getting into the heart of the city of Dublin without passing through a line of houses which makes it impossible, with reference to communication, that it ever could be contem plated. Then, with reference to a line of this short description is it not an important feature that people must go to a considerable distance before they arrive at the place where they would embark. The more central the terminus of a railroad of this description is, with reference to public communication, the better. It must unquestionably be the better the nearer it approaches the dense population of the city ; an inspection of the terminus is quite sufficient to show the Committee there can be no pos sible comparison between the two lines in this respect. I need only advert to the evidence that will be given by our engineer, who will prove the line, and will prove the investigation into which he went before he selected the line, and reported to the Committee his approbation of a line between Dublin arid Drogheda ; and he will prove the facility of communication of that first stage with a vast variety of planes with reference to a northward extension from Drogheda, uniting with the line to Armagh with the Ulster Canal, and all the tributary branches that the wants of the population may require. Now, with these observations we shall proceed, as has been the practice of Com mittees since these resolutions have been in the House of Com mons, to put, in the first instance, the list of subscribers, and the names of those who belong to the Provisional Committee, and also all those by whom 2,0001. has been subscribed ; we shall then prove the traffic by showing the difirent places along the line to be within communication of the actual traffic, because we shall prove that this is an existing line of commu nication on which all land conveyance is carried into Dublin and the northern parts of Ireland. FINE WRITING ; OR, POT VERSUS KETTLE. — The Morning Post of this day quotes, as an exquisite sample of bombast, the following passage from an Ultra-Radical Even ing Contemporary of yesterday :—" The living maggot of Aristocracy, which is sustained merely by the rancid garbage of Toryism, upon which it is fed, and which ever takes wing when the foetid atmosphere is impregnated with the tainted airs of factious corruption, fluttered about last night in the full= ness of victory, and displayed all the garish colours of those immingled hues which reflect the extent and depth of political prostitution." This is unquestionably a rich morceau,' yet it is fully equalled by a passage which appears this day in our Morning Contemporary, in a review of Boz 's " Pickwick Club." In justice to both journals, we must give this airy and eloquent tit-bit :—" Boz is a shrewd observer of all the phases of citizenship, stationary or wandering, waxing or waning, effulgent or eclipsed, and has the happiest knack in the world of delineating the glowing outlines of p ersonal sublimit y with that recipient risibility of conception which makes them un consciously waver into profiles of the ridiculous," KILLED. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, MAY 11, 1836. EXCHEQUER COURT.-(THIS D DOE DEM. PRIOR V. PIPER. This was an action of ejectment. The cas;y Mr. PLATT. In the year 1777 a grant of a large tract of land in Kennington was made by the officers of the Duchy of Corn wall to Samuel Freeman, upon the lives of Sir William Clay ton, George Clayton. and William Medwin. The last life ( Sir William Clayton) fell in, in 1834, without any renewal having been m ad e . Ihe land had in the meantime been co was stated by. vered with buildinffs. There were a great number of tenants,. and a scrambl e t oo k place amongst them, for the purpose of obtaining a leas e o f their own premises. Mr. Prior unfortu nately lost his own house, but in order to make up for the loss, the Duchy granted him a lease of the house in question, which was in the occupation of the defendant. Mr. Piper, however, set up some claim to the house, and refused to give up posseslton, and the plaintiff was obliged to bring this ac tion for the reco‘ery of his property. The lease was put in. It was dated " , lst May, 1833. It described th e prop er ty as Chester Cottage, in the occupation of Mr. Piper. and numbered 38, late No. 10, in Chester street, Kennington. Mr. CUANDLEss, for the defendant, would show that the plaintiff had not such a perfect right as his Learned Friend bad attempted to show. He would prove that Mr. Prior had negociated with the officers of the Duchy of Cornwall for the lease of the house in question, which he had built, and which he had occupied for many years. He would prove that he had got the promise of a lease from the Duchy officers, and had actually paid the fine for the renewal. He would also rove that the description of the property in the lease was in correct, for the property in question was always known as No. 11, until the alteration in the numbers took place. When the Jury found that to be the case, he was sure that under the circumstances, they would find for the pre sent Oc cupant and builder of the house. Supposing that he should fail in that defence, he would then show that the plaintiff was premature in his action, for so late as June last he h ad acted in the character of landlord of the premises. He had then sent in a broker, and demanded rent; having done so, he was not entitled to bring such an action, no notice to give up the premises having been given. The Learned Gentleman proved these statements ; but the Learned Judge held that the description in the lease was suf ficient, and that no rent having been paid, and no distress having been made, that line o f d e fence must also fad. Verdict for the plaintiff. regular CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT• (THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. John Carter was indicted for burglariously breaking O dd entering the dwelling-house of J. Glover, at the Coach and Horses, Ilford, Essex, and stealing ther e i n 31b. of cigars , and divers other articles and money, his property. The wife of the prosecutor stated that on the 6th of AP. ri _ i they retired to bed at the usual time, and in the course of tn! night she heard a noise. Upon going down they found that the house had been entered, and the bar and other rooms rai l ' sacked of a vast deal of property and money from the till, no part of which has since been recovered, except an umbrella- The prisoner called at her house the day before the robber'', and witness served him with some refreshment. Mr. Wm. Webb, a builder, stated that he lodged at the Coach and Horses on the night in question. He left his gr eat coat and umbrella in the parlour. H e wa s awo ke early in t he morning, and found the house had been broken, and his Pr c " . perty gone; has seen the umbrella since. • Thomas Shellswell, a constable, stated th a t h e a pprebeaded the prisoner, when he found the umbr e lla now produced , an t owned by Mr. Webb, the last witness. Th e prisoner s aid was his own. (The witness produced a number of skele t° a' keys, jemmies, crow-bar, screw-driver, a dark lanthorn, a n a pistol, which he also found on the premises.) He had sinc e applied the crow-bar to various doors on the premises enter' and it tallied exactly with all the marks. The prisoner, when called upon for his defence, said but bought the umbrella from Sar a h J ones , i n Whit ec hapel, u" she did not appear to confirm the statement. Mr. Justice PARKE summed up, and the Jury returned a verdict of—Guilty of stealing, but not of the burglary. The prisoner was again indicted for burlariously entering the dwelling-house of Charles Barritt, ands tealing therein I) quantity of apparel, plate, &c., his property. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty—Death.
