Whether this .lifferer ice of five and a half miles can be realised by Sir John Ren: tie's tine is yet to be proved, and, if realised, whe. ther suet+ ra diffe renr.e would be compensated for by the London and York line 'trading its course through the towns of Hitchin, Hunting& +n, Pr tecborough, Grantham, Newark, Tuxford, Retford, Bawtry, ar d nv.:aster, not one of which is approached by Sir John Rennie's li ae, 'rtif3 public will be able to determine. To the s , mend and third allegations the Committee of Direction of the Lond on s nd York Company reply, that while Sir John Ren nie and Co. stab a that their surveys were commenced in October. 1843, and t heir prospectus published in April last, the project for a new railway between London and York was formed by Mr. Gibbs in 1836, an kin that year carried into Parliament. That in 1840 Mr. Gibbs age': I brought his scheme before the Parliamentary Commis. sioners, any lit is detailed by them in their report of 1841. That such scherr g was never abandoned by him, but in February of the present ye: w the details of the London and York Railway, as now, with modifi c ;Lions adopted, were explained by him to Mr. Beckett Denison, M P , who suggested several alterations, and Mr. Francis Mowatt, floe Vice-Chairman, and arrangements were made for per fecting the I lan by levels and surveys, which were completed in the month of 11 arch following, and on the 16th of April the project was annour led by advertisement in the Times, under the name of the " Great, Northern Railway," before any advertisement of Sir John Reims 3 had appeared : and the Committee of Direction dis tinctly afEr. II that the course over the first seventy miles from London was adopted on actual surveys made by Mr. Gibbs, and not suggeste d t4' them by any other parties; and they beg further to observe, it is only now within these few days, that after the Lon.. don and 'York Company has been before the public for a period of five mo: iths, after its whole capital of five millions has been sub. scribed, *no its shares has attained a high premium in the market, that Sir John Rennie and Company have come forward with what is inter aled to be a counter.project, and with the mis-statements here di spared of.

The question has been often repeated with more or less scepticism and superciliousness, " What is Young England, and what does it mean ?" All that people knew, or affected to know, was, that half a dozen per sons lad agreed in the very ordinary project of decrying things as they are, and wishing back again things as they were. There was nothing in this, or at least there might be nothing, but a very irrational excess of a very com mon sentiment. " Once on a time," is the delightful era of the fables which filled the mind of infancy, and colour even the speculations of manhood. A craving for the past is natural to many, for the simple reason that it is not practical, and, so far from involving us in the painful responsibilities of action, is a ready excuse for doing nothing, Then it must be remembered that history is always dressed up ; the best things are best told, and naturally leave a more abiding fragrance behind them. So, all things considered, the above project, if project it could be called, seemed to many about as stale, common place, and idle an affair as could be pretended or con fessed to. Then, when people came to look for actual results, if they were unfavourably disposed at first, they were not satisfied afterwards. The workings of Young England seemed as .incongruous as they were objectionable. One of the party was for restoring monasteries and the Book of Sports, and for repeal ing the Statute of Mortmair. Another appeared anxious, in his own person, to bring controversy to the trial by wager. Another wrote .a hook, showing up in very good style the Peers and politicians of these our gentile times, but containing nothing serious or intelli gible, except it were the praises of Judaism. It was difficult either to approve these things severally, or to reduce them to a common term. So, what was Young England, and what did it really mean ? Now it may be fair to ask this question, but not to insist on a dis tinct and immediate answer. A school of opinions may be very good and sound, and pregnant with great re sults, without being as perfectly producible as so many pounds, shillings, and pence, in answer to a pecuniary demand. Some projects there have beer, and are now, which a man can put into your hand at once, without their being necessarily all the better for it. Everybody who takes the trouble may ascertain to the smallest iota what:Mahomedanism or Mormonism is. Socialism and Chartism glory in their explicitness. Religious dogmas, true or false, are, of course, meant to be clear. But when you come to schools of opinion, they must start with broad principles or preferences. Time works them into shape, and gives them their actual objects. But no school, no party whatever, will stand the test of a scrutiny pushed as far as hostility or suspicion may choose to push it. No school can at first say what it will do, or what it will be. Was Pitt th i r ot same- from first to last, or could he have laid down in 1780 the exact course he intended to take, or even the exact principles on which he intended to act, for the ensuing six and twenty years ? What is Toryism ? Yet Toryism is no longer a future scheme, but a past history. You may sit down to analyze it, if you can, in your study ; and put into the crucible every man, every deed, and every word of the whole party from be ginning to end. It can only be resolved into a few ge neral preferences, most inadequately and inconsistently followed out. Conservatism is something too hazy and fugitive to talk about. It has passed off like the tail of a comet, about which the astronomical world was exactly divided on the question whether it had a nucleus or not. The statesmen now in power know so well the perils of superfluous particularity, that they neither answer any questions nor indulge in any distinct anticipations. Their underlings who fall into the error, either through the ardour of sincerity, or the stratagems of the foe, are sure to be severely snubbed by their leader, than whom futurity itself is scarcely- more dark and inscrutable. Such is the course of Providence, and such Sir Robert seems to think ought to be the course of those who, under Providence, conduct the affairs of empire. " Prudens futuri temporis exitum Caliginosii nocte premit Deus ; Ridetque si mortalis ultra Fas trepidat. Quod adest memento Componere mqutts: That is all the comfort the Premier offers to the trepi dations of his followers. "Don't inquire beyond your mortal capacity. Make up your minds to what you see, and be content." The wisdom of his course is not to be disputed, as we do not see how the Government, under existing circumstances, can otherwise be carried on. His opponents are becoming equally sagacious, and in deed have never shown any disinclination to trim their course to events. It is impossible to say what either party is aiming at—i. e., in the way of principle, for place and power are objects intelligible enough. Of course, in such an universal mist of opinions, every party is anxious that some other party should show itself. " Only let us know who you are, and what you are, and what you are going to do," is the universal expostulation, though often a very insidious one. It generally means nothing more than " show yourself, and be shot at." The object is to induce some political rival to precipitate and founder his plans, or perhaps to make plans which events are not ripe for, and which can be more easily demolished now than ten years hence. On the whole, therefore, we think that " Young England" is quite justified in standing to a few general preferences, and waiting for the slow and natural developments of time. It cannot be a tree all at once. At present, we readily grant its light is somewhat hazy and prismatic. New and old, Chris tian and Jewish, Papistic and Protestant, monastic and sportive, literary and belligerent, commercial and aris tocratic, popular and feudal, it presents a very remark able specimen of those many-refracted hues which are always found more or less in the light transmitted through various terrestrial media. But so long as it prospers and gains fresh suffrages ' it can well afford the imputation of indistinctness in a day when nothing is distinct, when every man and everything is changing, no one knows or seems to care into what. In such a state of things it is evident that general principles, ex cept, and in subordination to, the express canons of sacred truth, are the safest and the only guide. Thus far these gentlemen have been quite as forward to embrace oppor tunities and show themselves as their most impatient ad mirers could desire. On two occasions within a week, at Manchester and at Bingley, have they presented them selves personally before two very different auditories, and said—not quite all they had to say, for with imagi nations so fertile, and memories so stored, that would be no easy task, but—as much as could be ex pected. On both these occasions they have _shown themselves the friends of improve ment, and, if one may use that much-abused word, of progress. They have advocated with extraordinary eloquence increased attainments and increased comforts:_rehleerveataiorne both of mind and condition, for the many lovers of comfort who commend ordinancethe i o n fd i e t st w it e uii tion, and there are lovers of learning who t think for others to be ignorant. There are also those who wish others to be as themselves, but will not go through the Heaven. Such roug h work of communicating the gifts of are not the men of whom their enemies have called, and who are not ashamed to be called, " Young England." If we might resolve their recent acts into any one prin ciple, we should say it is an acknowledgment of the great but neglected truth, that man is the masterpiece of the creation and that for him all earthly things are made and should be administered. He is better than money, or house, or land, or rank, or learning, or any work, or quality, or instit u ti on o f men. As far as the bulk of our fellow -creatures does not partake of these, or of the benefits flowing from them, so far are they a disgrace and a burden to the possessors. The gifts - of Heaven live and flow. Favoured their channel, and the menand classes are many their most rightful reci- TABLE OF DISTANCES. Present Distance by existing,' Railways.

"We regard the work before us, The Silent Friend,' as a work embracing most clear and practical views of a series of com plaints hitherto little understood, and passed over by the majority of the Medical profession, for what reason we are at a loss to know. We must, however, confess that a perusal of this work has left such a favourable impression on our minds, that we not only recommend, but cordially wish every one who is the victint of past folly, or suffer. ing from indiscretion, to profit b y t h e advice contained in its pages." —Age and Argus. The Authors of The Silent Friend' seem to be thoroug hl y conversant with the treatm ent of a class of complaints which are, we fear, too prevalent in the present day. The perspicuous style in which this book is written, and the valuable hints it conveys to those who are apprehensive of entering the marriage state, cannot fall torecommend it to a careful perusal."—Era.

We subjoin the promised details of the race for the Cesarevriteh:— Croton Oil jumped off with the lead at the top of his speed, but had not gone two hundred yards before Semi seria broke away, passed him, and in a few strides was at least five lengths in advance, her followers being Coal- Black Rose, Lightning, Jamal, Glossy, and several other light weights, Foig-a-ballagh and lonian lying in the rear, away from their horses. Semiseria went on with the running at a tremendous pace to the R.M. post, where she was beaten, and the lead fer a moment was left with Coal-Black Rose and Jamal ; at the New ground, however, Lightning went in front, Foig-a-bal lagh, who had joined the ruck of horses before they were through the gap, following him ; behind were the Emperor, Algernon, Vibration, and lonian ; and in their wake Venus. Lightning went down the hill with a clear lead, and had he been ridden judiciously, would have made a most respectable finish, but, for want of a pull, was fairly run to a stand-still, and Foig-a •ballagh, galloping past him in the bottom, went on by himself, and won with the greatest ease, by three lengths, Lightning having swerved the moment he was headed. Venus passed her horses in the bushes, and finished a bad third, the Emperor fourth, Algernon fifth, and Vibration sixth. The others were spread all over the course, and either walked or cantered home, the last to reach the chair being Croton Oil, lleslington, and David. The Souvenir filly, William le Gros, and Scalteen, never could live the pace, and were beaten be fore they had gone half a mile ; in short, in the opinion of those who had stationed themselves at the ditch, the race, from the moment Semiseria had given up the lead, was reduced to a match between Foig-a ballagh and Lightning, and any odds on the former from the bushes. Looking at it altogether —the weights, the distance, the pace, and the ease with which it was accomplished—we may safely de clare this to be the most extraordinary performance for a three years old that has ever been placed on record. The heavy rain that fell during the whole of the even ing was not a more effectual damper than the result of the race—none but those immediately connected with the stable believed it possible that a three years old could win at such weights ; hence it was looked upon as " coin ing money" to bet against Foig-a-ballagh ; and the up shot is, that " the ring" is hit to the amount of at least 20,0001., of which Dlr. Irwin alone wins upwards of 13,0004 ! To make matters worse, 25, 30, and 40 to 1 has been laid against the horse winning the Cesarewitch and Cambridgeshire, and 1,000 to 12 against these events and the Grand Duke Michael. Two of them have come off in his favour, and for the third (the Cambridge shire) even betting between him and the field. After such an " agreeable surprise," the metallics were not much in request ; the only bets, in fact, that were made were 50 even on Foig-a-ballagh against The Cure, Rowena, Evenus, Walpole, Counsellor, and Sir Ab strupus for the Cambridgeshire, and 30 to 1 each against Connaught Ranger and Fitzallen for the Derby. The Ratan investigation was resumed after the races, and adjourned, after a long sitting, until to-morrow morning. WEDNESDAY. The rain poure3 down in torrents throughout the night, alai did not cease till nine o'clock this morning, producing a great change in the state of the turf, which became thoroughly softened. The Stewards resumed their inquiry into the Ratan affair, and continued thus engaged till twelve o'clock, when a further ad journment took place till after the races. It is extremely doubtful, however, whether any decision will be given during the present meeting. The gentlemen who are charged with betting against the horse on Sam Rogers's account had not been heard ; it is therefore impossible to form any opinion as to the probable result. The settling took place in the course of the day, and all passed off satisfactorily, with some few exceptions. The best judges have been deceived, and they have paid dearly for the pertinacity of their opinions. This and Mr. Tattersall's sales afforded ample sources of attraction till three o'clock, when the sports commenced, and came off in the following order:— The Town Plate of 501. for three yrs, 7st 41b; four yrsi Bst 41b; five yrs, Bst I Ilb ; six yrs and aged, 9st Ilb.

A. GREAT SAVING TO TEA-DRINKERS. It is a most astonishing fact that the celebrated PIQUA PLANT is now sold at 3s. 6d. per lb., and is three times the strength of Tea, and is also equal in flavour, more delicate in taste, infinitely more healthy, as is proved by physicians and chemists of high standing, as Dr. Bryant, &c., also by persons in great num. hers with the most delicate lungs and stomachs, and yet many per sons have not tried nor ever heard of this celebrated morning and evening beverage. It is most pleasant and invigorating, and is recommended to the debilitated for its invaluable qualities, to ad vanced age for its strengthening properties, and to the public generally for its moderate price and intrinsic excellence. It neither has the stimulating and heating effect of Coffee, nor the nervously exciting effect of Tea, and is more strengthening than Porter, without the deleterious effects, while it is beneficial to the whole nervous and circulating systems. Pim Test—the proof of the efficacy and healthful effect of the plant in preference to Tea or Coffee.—Let a nervous or dyspeptic patient use two or three cups of strong Tea upon retiring to rest, and the effect will he nightmare, disturbed sleep, and other violent symptoms of indigestion, &c. The Proof—let the most debilitated, dyspeptic, asthmatic, con sumptive, and nervous patients use two, three, or more cups of a very strong infusion of the Piqua Plant, and in the morning they will awake refreshed with their repose. It is highly recommended by Physicians to Invalids and Children, as a most invigorating and pleasant beverage. The following are reasons why the Plant is superior to Tea, viz ;-- Ist. Because it is beneficial to health. 2d. It does not injure the nerves. :3d. It does not prevent sleep. 4th. Children may use it with advantage to health. sth. It is strengthening and nutritious. 6th. A quarter of a pound will go as far as three-quarters of a pound of the best Gunpowder Tea. 7th. It is recommended by Physicians, and Tea is disapproved of by them. Sir,—The beverage sold by you, under the name of Piqua Plant, I have drank for some time; it was first recommended to my notice as a salutary beverage by a friend who is a great dyspeptic, and I have since recommended it to several patients suffering from Chronic affections of the Digestive Organs, Heart, and Lungs, with manifest advantage. And am, Sir, yours, Sec., July 1,1843. JOHN BRYANT, M.D., 50, Edgware-road. To Mr. W. Evans. Numerous Testimonials from Physicians and others of undoubted authority may be seen at the Depot. The Plant is patronised by many of the first families in the land. _ . The amount in economy derived from the nse of the Piqua Plant, compared with Tea, is as follows :-.—Suppose a family using one lb. of Tea per week, worth 4s. per lb., substitutes the Plant at 3s. 6d. per lb., which requires but one-third the quantity to make the in. fusion of equal strength, the saving would be, per week, 35., and the cost to the family Is., instead of 45.; for one-third of a lb. of the Plant will go as far as one lb. of Tea. Sold at the Depot, No. 1, Savoy.street, Strand, London, in Quarter -pound tinfoil packages, at 3s. Bd. per lb. None is genuine unless each package bears the signature of WM. EVANS. It greatly improves the voice; it is recommended to Singers and Public Speakers. One agent is wanted in each town where there is none; any respectable trade approved.

FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH The manifold advantages to the heads of families from the possession of a Medicine of known efficacy, that may be resorted to wOh confidence, and used with success in cases of temporary si-k. ness, recurring in families more or less every dar, are so obvious to all, that no question can be raised of its importance to every house_ holder in the kingdom.

The weather this morning is very fine, I and the seaa comparatively smooth. The French steam squadron. , with the Reine Amelie brig yacht, and La Favorite cut tl/4-r, left their anchorage this morning a t a quarter past eta o'clock for their own harbours. The Inflexible and Be lk, Poule sent up top-gallant masts and top-gallant yards ~:his morning, and hoisted the blue peter for the ; n o o f ; ,, , 1 1 officers and seamen from the shore, as early as lialf-03t. six o'clock. The Belle Pottle got under we i gh at ha ti4,,:st eight, and the Inflexible at half-past. nine o'clock. They yere soon out of sight. Spithead is now solely occupied hy lis::itish men-of-war. The line-of battle ships, St. Vincent, 120, Captain Rowley, flag of Admiral Sir Ciarties Rowley, Bart. ; Caledonia,. 120, Captain Milne ; and Queen, 110, Captain Martin, will leave Spithead in a "ew days for a short cruise, and, to gether with the Albion, 90, Commodore Lockyer, if then can fall in with her, try their sailing qualities. Rear-- Admiral Bowles, C. 8., will vacate his seat at the Admi— ralty for the time, and holst his flag (blue, at the mizen) on board the St. Vincent, as Commander-in-Chief of the squadron. Captain Rowley wiil not go oast in his ship; ' the St. Vincent, on this cruise, taut will remain ashore to assist his gallant father in tlw flag duties of the port, the very precarious health of Sir Chivies render ing assistance in his office necessary. We are not aware whether the experimental brigs will join the sq uadron or form one of themselves : we should imagine tl ie latter. Portsmouth has been the scene of several s hock ing acci dents during the late rejoicings. On Moilday, about. half-past ten, a labourer in the dockyard, nam, scr Thomas Smart, was struck by a ladder, which was blo "al down by the violence of the wind, by which his skull Wag hor ribly fractured, and he died soon after being con 'eYed to Ilaslar Hospital. lie was aged about sixty, and h ii; hcen a number of years in the dockyard. Last evening, whldst the jury had retired to allow time for the Coron. lir to draw up his inquisitions in the case of the accident on .;the King's Bastion, information was brought to the Corm* r that a few doors off, at the sign of the Valiant ifoffil, an elderly man was standing at the bar drinking, artl4 talking about the .French to the landlord, when he cavil-. denly vomited a mouthful of blood and fell upon the floors a corpse. An inquest was held upon the body tbiseven-4- 10g, and a verdict of " Died by the visitation of God ' 4l returned. A young woman was dragged out of the sea near Point beach on Sunday night, during the terrific storm which prevailed about one o'clock ; which, toge ther with the two soldiers killed by the gun, and one at the same time severely injured, and the accident ( n board the Reine Amelie, form a catalogue of disasters seldom paralleled in so ;bort a space of time in ore locality. The pay-boat went out about twelve o'clock . to take the advance wages to Spithead for five of the brigs. The wind to-day was, at daylight, north-west, and this afternoon west-north-west, with every appear ance of a dry night. THE LATE SIIOCKING ACCIDENT ON THE KING'S BASTION AT PORTSMOUTH. - - - - TUESDAY, 9 P.M.—An inquest was yield this evening before Mr. Cooper, the Coroner for Portswouth, on the bodies of the unfortunate young men, Michael Walker and Alexander Miller, gunners of the Royal .Artillery, who were killed on Monday by the accidental discharge of a gun they were loading whilst announcing ti ;e ar rival of her Majesty and the..King . of_the French at. this port by a royal salute. The jury having viewed the bodies, which.we?e iden tified by a comrade of the Royal Artillery corps, William Henry Bent was sworn, and deposed—He was a captain of the Royal Artillery, and commanded the detachment stationed at Portsmouth ; he was oat duty on Monday, the 14th instant, on the King's Bas tion, on the Portsmouth lines ; the deceased men,. Michael Walker and Alexander Miller, belonged to his company, and were under his command on the bastion. Ile was there for the purpose of directing the royal salutes for her Majesty Queen Victoria and the King of the French on their arrival at Portsmouth. At about a quarter to four o'clock in the afternoon, in accordance with preconcerted signals, a salute was commenced firing, and the deceased, together with anothi r gunner, Archibald Guthrie, were on duty at No. 3 gun. The gun had been once fired (there being only four guns on the bastion it was necessary to fire each gun file times, and one of them six, to produce a Royal salute). He was going to give the word of command to " fire,' when suddenly the gun was discharged without the word. On the smoke clearing away, the bodies of the two ,nier, Walker and Miller, were discovered lying on the ram part in front of the guns, at some distance from their muzzles, each having an arm torn away, their thighs shattered, and Walker, his head horribly disfigured from the blast of the powder. He had the bodies imme diately conveyed to the works below the bastion, and covered over. The bones protruded through the skins of the bodies, where the blast of the charge had taken effect. By a juror—lt is usual to stand upon the works to . charge the guns upon the King's Bastion. By the CORONER—The guns mounted on the King's Bastion are 32-pounders. Witness—Walker was never heard to speak or utter any sound after the accident. lie examined the gun im mediately after the accident, and there was no defect whatever in it. They are all new guns on the King's Bastion ; and, in order to prevent the possibility of ac cident, the sponge to clean out the guns was wet, and a bucket of water was kept close at hand to keep the sponges well wet, notwithstanding the heavy raia which was descending. His inference was, that a piece of the flannel cartridge had remained in the gun after it was first discha,rged, which ignited the second charge on its being rammed home. By the Foreman—No blame whatever can possibly attach to the soldier who stopped the vent with his thumb. The rammer was blown away, and bas not yet been recovered. Cannot answer the question " whether the man who stopped the vent did his duty 7" He is a very steady man, and was at hi s p os t. I b e li eve h e i s thoroughly careful, and that no blame whatever attaches to him. lie is an old soldier, and has seen service ; he is a very good man, and understands his duty perfectly. John Saunderson was then called, and stated that he was master-gunner of the lines. He went on dutyalit the King's Bastion on the 14th inst. His duty was to see the guns loaded, under the direction of Captain Bent. Ile saw Miller and Walker, deceased, load No. 3 gun, having sponged it and turned the sponge. Archibald Guthrie had charge of the vent ; saw his hand over the breech, but cculd not tell whether his thumb was on the sent or not. He suddenly heard a discharge, without the order to " fire," and on the smoke clearing away, he saw the bodies of the two men, whom but a moment before he had observed loading the gun, lying on the rampart, blown to pieces. A similar accident occurred when saluting his Majesty William IV., as Lord High Admiral, in 1838 ; but then the gun was not well sponged, nor the vent well served, which, doubtless, was the cause of the accident. (The other part of this wit ness's Lstimony was merely corroborative of that given by Captain Bent.) Archibald Guthrie deposed—ls a gunner of the corps of Royal Artillery quartered in Portsmouth. Has been gunner for nearly nineteen years. Was on duty on the King's Bastion on the 14th inst., and served the vent Of No. 3 gun, the samo which caused the accident. The bodies which the jury had viewed were those of Michael Walker and Alexander Miller. Is No. 4 of No. 3 gun. The duty of the deceased was respectively to sponge and load, and his to serve the vent. The gun had been once fired, and deceased were engaged in reloading it. He had his thumb upon the vent, his bare thumb, when the gun exploded. He saw the gun previously sponged by No. 2, Alexander Miller. The sponge was carried to the breech, and it appeared to him the gun was properly sponged. Walker loaded the gun. Saw him put the cartridge into the muzzle, and a few moments after he did so witnessed it explode. There was scarcely time fur the cartridge to have been thrust up to the breech be fore the explosion took place. He had his thumb upon the vent in the way in which gunners are taught to place their thumbs in serving the vent. The ignited wadding, &c., was flying about from the other guns as they were discharged, the wind was blowing so very strong at the time. Could not remember any accident having occurred in con sequence of the sparks or wadding from other guns hav ing blown into the muzzle of a loaded gun. It is the duty of Saunderson to see the guns are properly served. On the explosion taking place it blew his (witness's) thumb from off the vent and burnt it very much, laying it open from the hand to near the top (witness appeared with his left arm in a sling). The deceased were blown from each side of the muzzle of the gun. His experience a gunner did not enable him to explain accurately tl e cause of the heartrending calamity. By a juror—Thinks such a circumstance might have happened as a spark flying upon the flannel cartridge be. fore being put into the gun. This being the principal evidence touching the direct cause of the death of the young men, the Coroner summed up, and the jury returned an unanimous verdict of " Accidental Death.'• A wrist and two fingers stuck together, believed to belong to the body of Walker, were picked aufdtes from but about twelve o'clock on the beac h, about 10 y_ I n i e i i n t g b ' e s r Utbaestoiothnerinmaemlinbeerwsibthlotwhne mafrountohrstohfethrame_gumnear, have yet been i‘ i o°s eriyil:reGeat : landing d g ------- -This establishment was "' aware that it is situate in .
