His Learned Friend Mr. Hildyard would :4. dress the Committee more particularly on behalf of the trustees, and he (Mr. would proceed to lay down the important features of Sir John Maxwell's case, consolidating it as much as possible with the other Interests. The first point which he would bring before the Committee was an objection to the manner and the matter of the proposed Bill, as related to the Polloc and tilovan Railway. The Bill had been presented as a third-class Dill, in which the erection of new works had not been contem plated. He would, however, submit that the present Bill did not come under that appellation ; that prima fade the making new works was intended, and the 25th clause of the Bill showed the position he had taken; and also the evidence of Mr. Errington, the engineer, would show it. The CHAIRMAN, at this stage, interrupted the address of the Learned Gentleman, and said that the Committee could not enter. tamed the points which had been carried, as they were a matter which came immediately undo the jurisdiction of the Committee on Standing Orders.

Mr. MAXWELL observed that lie could show that the Bill, as it at present stood, was a deception on the Committee; but as it ap peared their decision that the point could not be entertained, he would not press it further, hut would address a few observations with respect to the Polloc Railway in soother point. He would shortly detail the history of the Polloc and Govan Railway. It appeared that it was originally a tram.road on private property, and used for private purposes. In 1830 Mr. Dixon, to whom the tiam.road belonged, obtained an Act of Par liament to enable him to raise the funds for continuing the line of railway, and subsequently provided an amended Act to put them in a position to extend the line to West-street. A clause was inserted in this Act which provided that Mr. Graham should pay for the property he used for the purposes of the railway within certain petiod. This proviso it appeared had not been complied with, and the consequence had been a protracted course of legal action in the Courts of Scotland, and, finally, an appeal, which was now pending in the House of Lords. He stated this matter to the Committee in order that any decision they might arrive at wilt respect to the eligibility of the Clydesdale Junction liai!way might not interfere with the progress of the actions now pending, and contended that, even setting aside the objectionable manner of crossing the canal, it would tend con siderably to injure the interests of the parties engaged in the pre sent actions, and, therefore, he would ci.ll on the Committee to be cautious how they decided, as, in case of an affirmative decision for the Bill, the persons now engaged in litigation would have to contend with a powerful body, possessed of large capital and meats for oproition. t44,„,NeASTER. and CARLISLE RAIL AY. ain,,.,,tte Directors of /3i tzi a this undertaking having had placed at their l ss , limited number of SHARES in the ULVERSTONE ; and LANCASTER and CARLISLE RAILWAY (Mr. , fyQLancaster and Carlisle Shareholder desirous of °l,llch Shares will be so good as to forward his applica "dersigned ou or before the 10th of June next.

On the part of Messrs.

Mr. MERREWETHER said that he was instructed to say that no such arrangement had been made. Mr. Vignolles was further cross-examined by Mr. WILW'RE on behalf of the London and Croydon Railway—Was acquainted with the atmospheric principle, and was the first engine, r aho brought it into operation. He had no doubt that the London and Croydon Company could work their line upon the t mospheric principle, with the gradient of 1 in 50, which they had adopted. The atmospheric railway can be worked at times and under circumstances were a locomotive could not go. The cost of a locomotive was not so high as a shilling. In some places in w.s only 6d., and he calculated that by his arrangement he could riin the engines at an average of lid. He was, not aware that any of, the southern railways paid more than Is. On the Sheffield and Manchester line the cost was but 6 1 / 2 d. It was probable that he had stated in a former examination that the atmospheric principle could be worked at half the expense of a locomotive. In that es timate he calculated the locomotive cost at 10d. .a mile, and the atmospheric at 4d. or 41d. He considered the atmospheric princi ple safer than the locomotive. But he would admit that the velocity of the atmospheric railway would not be as great in practice as in theory. The North Kent Railway would carry passengers from London to Chatham, at rates varying from 10d., to Is. and Is. ;Id. Mr. Comm cross-examined the witness, on the part of Turd Dartmouth, but there was nothing material in the answers which has not appeared already. Mr. EMILE appeared on the part of the Inhabitants of Fevers. ham, and of Colonel Fearon, who were petitioners against the line. Mr. Sergeant SHEA objected that Colonel Fearon had no interest in property adjoining the railroad.

The CIIAIRM fiN interrupted the Learned Counsel, and said, with respectlo the operations intended to be carried on between the station and the river, the Committee did not think that the Clydes dale Junction Company had made out any case, and they had no leers standi before the Committee to interfere with rights now sub dice, and which would be prejudiced by their decision. The advantages peculiar to the process for which this patent has been granted, are very numerous ; but among the most prominent is this, that while the properties of the material are completely ex tracted, its available quantity is augmented, and its virtues improved. The distinctive qualities of the Essence obtained are, the retention of the identical flavour and fragrance of the particular Tea or Coffee used, and a degree of strength secured before unknown. The method employed in preparing and putting up these Essences, secures them against injury from the lapse of time and change of climate, affords the greatest possible facility for portability and im modiate use, and so reduces the price to the consumer, that economy itself furnishes an ample guarantee for their extensive use.

Mr. Bannatyne, one of the solicitors, inquired to know if the Commitzee refused also to sanction the branch across the river, from the Pollock and Govan Railway to the Ayr terminus? The CIiAI2IIIAN replied—Certainly not. Mr. MAXWELL then said that, in consequence of the decision of the Committee, it would be unnecessary for him to pra•eed any further with his opposition. Mr. GaEcti resumed his opposition on behalf of Mr. Graham, (through whose property the line would pass) against the Bill, and contended that the decision just come to by the Committee materially interfered with the estimates of the Bill as they stood before the Com mittee gave their decision and said that, although offers of a corn. promise had been made to Mr. Graham by the promoters of the Bill, yet they were so unsatisfactory and insufficient that they could not be entertained. " I hereby certify, that Staite's Patent Essence of Tea is a pure and wholesome beverage; and that is is extracted by a peculiar process, which, while it excludes in a great measure, the bitter and astringent matter always present in the teapot, preserves and refines all the exhilarating and aromatic principles of the Chinese herb. Being put up in Mr. Rand's Collapsible Tubes of pure tin, it will keep un changed for any length of time. (Signed) "ANDREW URE, "Analytical Chemist to the Board of Customs, &o."

Mr. BOVILE said that the railroad would pass through the cent re of the town, and very much affect the property of the inhabitants. The cross.examination was then proceeded with—There were two modes of passing through the main street of Feversham. One was by lowering the railway to the level of the street, and the other by raising the street. The latter mode would injure the property of the houses on each side. But the Company had provided no powers to purchase those houses. The railroad would not interfere with Farnham Park. In passing near the park the road would he eo much lowered as to avoid interfering with the beautiful scenery cf the surrounding country. Mr. Sergeant SHEA reexamined the witness, bat the whole substance of the evidence has been given already. Mr. Hughes, civil engineer, was next examined by Mr. GoLossitn, in corroboration of Mr. Vignolles's evidence. The examination was for the most part general, and referred to no new circumstance or feature in the project. His epinions were de. cidedly in favour of the North Kent line. W. J. Bland having tested the samples of the concentrated Es sence of Tea, manufactured under Staite's Patent, pronounces them clean, full and perfect. " By whatever process the Extract is obtained, the aroma is finely preserved, and without the crude er fibrous property which ordinary methods of maceration or evaporation would exhibit ; the distinctive flavours of Pekoe, Souchong, Congou, &c., are completely preserved, so that even critical judges of the article would not be able to tell any number of cups of the diluted Essence apart from others infused after the common method. This result may be regarded as tke acme of the invention, and its greatest protection and recommenda tion. He then called Mr. Martin, C.E., to show the injury that would be done to Mr. Graham's estate in case the line were permitted to pass through it, and also to suggest a devidtion which would avoid doing any damage to the property. The Learned Counsel then examined Mr. Buchanan, Mr. Mur ray, and Mr. Robson, who all corroborated the evidence of the pre vious witness, and the case for the opposition was finished. The CHAIRMAN observed that he was desired by the Committee to intimate to the parties c , .ncerned that they approved of .he con struction of the Hamilton branch of the Clydesdale Junction, but as regarded the Motherwell branch, its fate would be regulated by the decision on the Caledonian line. The reason that these inti. mations were given was, that the different parties might have an opportunity of preparing and arranging the various clauses that would be required when the formal proofs for the Bill would ►e fut in.

To have arrived at such a distinction it was first indispensable be erect an Hotel worthy of Royalty, and it will be conceded to Mr. Chadwick, the eminent builder, that he has succeeded al merveille, observing, en passant, that he has arrived at this climax by an ex penditure exceeding 25,0001. This being accomplished, C. Dotesie's next step was with 26,0001. more to follow in the school of taste, and secure the genius and 1311 g-tried experi-nce of the first uphol sterers and tapissiers of the two great metropolises, and he has ever and anon been gratified by the universal exclamation that he has by this exertion produced AN ENSEMBLE QUITE PERFECT. His primary object now is, however, to state that in spite of such a constellation of splendour, comfort in the most comprehensive form will be found to preside throughout every department; he will append a true fact, not a little important to make known, that his charges, which are moderate, fixed, and including every kind of attention and attendance, are formed upon a scale that will not exceed any ether hotel or tavern that seems worthy of a comparison. The motto ha has adopted will be SPLENDOUR, COMFORT, AND ONLY AN ADEQUATE REMUNERATION, . . _ observing that the grand Chef, with the first and best troop of artiste decuisine that could be found in England and France, are now en gaged to render that department of the Royal Hotel unique, and fkOVil any other public or private establishment; and the Wines have always been panegyrised as being recherche as money and good judgment could achieve, besides a variety of small and large cheerful apartments, commanding beautiful views of Windsor Castle and the country round, suitable to accommodate all parties and companies ; there are three noble Coffee-rooms with :every comfort, where a cup of coffee, a mutton chop, or a moderate repast will be given of the very best quality, in the best style, and on terms not opposed to its neighbouring:contemporaries. Wedding parties will find at the Royal Hotel every nicety of comfort suitable for the occasion, combined with the greatest privacy. In conclusion, C. Dotesio most anxiously begs a fair trial, and trusts a kind and just public will not allow misrepresentation, arising out of envy or malice, in respect to his charges, to discourage all such as are willing to lend their helping hand to support an establish ment that ever will be C. Dotesio's gratifying pride to main tain as LA PREMIERE MATSON* TOUJOURS DIGNE D'UN PUBLIC ANGLAIS. The Royal Hotel being now considered as the Great Western Ter minus, Families, and Ladies arid Gentlemen travelling to and from the West of England, will find this house a great convenience, as they will be enabled to see Windsor Castle, the Great Park, and Virginia Waters, and proceed by any of the trains the following morning, while it avoids the inconvenience of arriving in the Metropolis at a late hour of night. The Stable Department of this establishment is upon a larger scale than anything contemporaneous throughout England, and everything is ready at a moment's notice. Post-horses, Carriages, and Flys of every description, which are always in attendance on the arrival of each Train. To prevent imposition, it will be necessary, on arriving at the Slough Station, to ask for the Royal Hotel Carriages and Horses, and observe that to deceive and impose upon the public, the Hackney Flys have changed their colour to red, so as to imitate those of the Royal Hotel, which are now distinguished only by the liveries of the servants. Le tout ensemble, with the peculiarly delightful and salubrious ad vantages of the situation of the Royal Hotel, with its extensive plea sure grounds,!laid out by the celebrated Messrs. Lee, in a style worthy of ]lepton's name, and throughout the season the never-ending dis play of the choicest plants and flowering shrubs pouring forth their odoriferous perfume at every turn, C. D. trusts will leave nothing more to covet, or in vain to dream of elsewhere.

The letters brought by the Hibernia steamer from Halifax were not delivered until rather a late hour this morning, owing, we are told, to the great increase in the colonial commu nications between this country and the United States. From the published accounts it is considered quite clear that all apprehensions of a serious difference of opinion upon the Oregon question are at an end. This is most satis factory, as fears were entertained in many quarters that the commercial intercourse with America would have been interfered with, and that, too, just at a period when symptoms of a good improvement were most apparent as respects the markets for British manufactured goods. It is quite certain that the Polk party has almost lost caste among the majority of the people of the United States, and from previous accounts, We are led to the conclu sion that the peace party are rapidly rising as the ascendant, and that the extension of mercantile pursuits is now the principal object of those connected with trade and commerce. There is some interest felt in the City in favour of the plan for the construction of a railway in conjunction with the Man chester and Birmingham Continuation and the Welsh Junc tion Itailway.The Provision alCommi ttee comprise a great num. ber of highly influential names. It is, in some quarters, objected that there are engineering difficulties to encounter, but we are assured that these, as compared with those that have been overcome in existing lines, are of easy accomplishment. It is somewhat remarkable that here, as well as at the principal outports, a sudden demand has sprung up for bonded wheat for exportation ; this is especially the case with re spect to Hull. In the circular of Messrs. Wright and Young, of Hull, we find the following:— "In the foreign grain trade a decided improvement has taken place. Since our last a good demand has arisen for wheat, particularly bonded, for export to Holland and Bel gium, and prices have advanced 3s. per quarter ; owing, however, to the little that remains in this port, the transac tions have not been important. Barley, and other descrip tions of spring corn, have also been in better request, but without any material alteration in their value. "Our last Tuesday's market was moderately supplied with English wheat, which met with tolerably fair sale at an ad vance of 2s. per quarter upon the rates current on that day week, the millers being, as heretofore of late, the chief pur chasers. From the information that has been received from the Con tinent, a belief was induced that the crops were looking excessively well, and that there was plenty of wheat on hand. The former statement we believe to be true, but with respect to the latter very considerable doubt exists, and hence it is that a speculative market now exists for foreign grain here. With respect to our own crops, there is little doubt but they will prove most abundant if inything like a fair harvest weather should prevail when the sickle is ordinarily in request.

FURTHER ACCOUNT. Long before the arrival of Mr. Braidwood and his "brigade" the flames had attained a fearful ascendancy, and all hope was in vain that any property could be saved. The attention of the firemen was consequently directed more especially to the cooling of the party walls, with a view to prevent the extension of the flames. Meanwhile, Mr. Satchel and his servant had effected their escape, leaving Mrs. Satchel and her child in bed. When the unfortunate lady became aware of her perilous position, she appeared at the window, with the child in her arms, supplicating, not with her voice, for that was drowned in the tumult that prevailed, but by her gestures, for assistance. With a bravery that does them infinite credit, the fire men belonging to each corps strove, at the risk of their own lives, to save their suffering fellow-creature. It was, however, otherwise ordained, and the poor woman, suffocated by the smoke, and encircled by the flames, uttered her last. shriek, fell down, and died. After striving until five o'clock, the fire men succeeded in subduing the flames so far as to enable them to reach with their ladders the second-floor window. Proper materials having been obtained, the firemen wrapped up the mutilated remains, and conveyed them to a building connected with St. Dionis church, where they will remain until an inves tigation into the sad affair shall have been commenced by the Coroner. Language would fail to describe the frightful appearance pre sented by the bodies. That of Mrs. Satchell was literally a mass of cinder—every feature undistinguishable, the legs burnt off from the trunk. The baby was equilly disfigured. It was clasped in the parent's arms, the affection of the fond mother for her child being unsubdued even in the midst of the horrors of such a frightful death, 1 1 51 4 3,' 10$ 4A 21% 6% 3 1 4, 74% 17% 8 23% 14 On his conclusion, Mr. ALEXANDER applied to be allowed to appear in opposition to the Bill on the part of the Great Southern and Western Com pany, His ground of application was that an agreement which had been entered into between the two parties—the prosecutor and his clients—had been violated. Sergeant WRANGIIAM resisted this application, contending that the applicants had no locus standi before the Committee. Upon this question the room was cleared. The Committee decked that the last twenty wiles of railway into Limerick should be made by the Waterford Company. ' Mr. Gould, a merchant at Cork, was then called, who stated that the number of cattle shipped at theport was upwards of 8,000 ; of pigs, upwards of 70,000 ; and of boxes of eggs upwards of '2:1,000 a year ; the freight of the last article alone across the water beibg more than 5,000/. In addition to these there was a large quantity of mild cured bacon passing down the line for which it wail of the utmost importance that it should be got to market as early as possible. A considerable number of sheep were also sent by the same route. Several other witnesses gave evidence of a similar character, and the Committee adjourned till twelve o'clock tomorrow. GROUP 88. wzxrozro AND CARLOW RAIL ViTAY. This Committee met to.day at 12 o'clock; Mr. Colquhoun in the chair. The evidence in favour of this line of railway was resumed. Mr. Leckie, of Carlow, farmer, deposed that the inhabitants of that town were decidedly in favour of the line. There would be a great number of passengers from the south and south-west of Ireland, and it would tend materially to increase the traffic between Wexford and England. The markets of Bristol would be opened to the Irish farmers, and especially for fat cattle. The prices in Bristol for cattle were much better than in Liverpool. The line would, in his opinion, have the tendency of in creasing this, a large and' important branch of trade. There was a great *number of passengers travelling yearly from Carlow and the adjacent towns to Dublin. The number he esti. mated to be 85,426 annually. A portion of these passengers would be diverted into this line. There were many very large cattle fairs held in the neighbourhood of Carlow. There were 229 fairs held annually in the district sound Carlow. The circuit was from ten to fifteen miles. An immense number of cattle changed hands at these fairs, and the greater portion for the purpose of ex portation. There were forty-six lime kilns in the neighbourhood of Carlow, which supplied 76,146 tons of lime annually. The yearly sales of butter inCarlow and a small adjoining market-town was 36,000 firkins, in value 121,500/. A considerable quantity of butter was ex. parted from Carlow in small tubs, and it was generally sent by coach. All the butter sold in Carlow was for the English market. The large firkins went by Waterford, and the small tubs by Dub lin. London, Bristol, and Liverpool were tho principal points of destination. The quantity of wheat purchased in Carlow and its neighbourhood by millers and corn.dealers, was 123,000 barrels ; the quantity of oats upwards of 200,000 barrels ; and the quantity of barley, 59,600 barrels. The tons of goods sold by 180 shop keepers of Carlow were upwards of 9,000. The tcnnage of the grain sold in the district was near to 60,000. It was his opinion that a i great portion of this would go by Wexford if the railway was formed. At present Dublin and Waterford were the exporting and importing towns for those goods, The bacon trade was likewise an important branch of sale in the district. A large quantity of fine marble was quarried in the district, and exported to England. Its price in Carlow was 2s. 6d. per cubic foot; in Bristol it was ss. It was generally used for tombstones and chimney-pieces. The whole county of Carlow was in favour of this line. A resolution at a public county meeting was unanimously passed in its favour. Wexford was a fatuous fish market, and the line would greatly facilitate the supply of Carlow and the adjoining towns wittt that article. The present mode of conveyance was very imrerfect and slow. The witness was cross-examined by Sir W. Itironeu, on behalf of the competing line, the Waterford, Wexford, Wicklow, and Dublin, without eliciting any point of material importance. Mr. Redmond, of Wexford, gave evidence as to the advantage which the proposed line would confer upon the town and harbour of Wexford. The harbour was capable of great improvement, which no doubt would be effected were the railway carried out. Sir John Rennie had examined into the capabilities of the har bour, and he had reported that it might be made as good as any other harbour that he knew of. The tonnage that annually entered the harbour of Wexford was about 60,000. The number of ships belonging to it were 85, averaging about 100 tons each, or an aggregate registered tonnage of 9,000. Sir John IV/glen, civil engineer, said that he had surveyed the line, and found no particular engineering difficulties. The gradients and curves were generally favourable, and there were no tunnels. The severest gradient was 1 in 122. The estimated cost was 300,000/. The principal items were—for land, 12,5001.; fencing, 6,592/. ; excavations, 118,648/. ; ballasting, 8,726/. ; via ducts, bridges, and culverts, 56,980/. ; crossings, 1,3501. ; permanent way, 71,8631.; stations, 5,000/. ; contingences, upwards of 12,0001. The estimates were for a single line of rails at present, though the cuttings, embankments, viaducts, and mason work would be for a double line. His attention had been called to the competing line along the coast, and he was sure it never could be worked to pay, considering its great engineering expenses. Some of the gradients on that line were so severe that they never could be worked by locomotive engines. The cross-examinatson of this witness was proceeding with when the Committee adjourned till to.morrow at twelve o'clock. GROUT DD. THE CLYDESDALE XUNCTION RAILWAY. The Committee re-assembled this morning at twelve o'clock, and shortly afterwards proceeded with the further consideration of the scheme before them. Mr. Graham, the Parliamentary agent, announced that the op. position to the line, on behalf of Mrs. Douglas, hail been with drawn,ibnercosnosirocitouer and the nceofanraialrwraayngceommepn3t4.hat had been made between The re.examination of Mr. Errington was resumed by Mr. GREGG, who endeavoured to show that the course of the line through Mr. Graham's property, as at present laid out, would materially injure it. and that all difficulty might be easily obviated by a small deviation of the line. It appears, by evidence, that thirty cottage gardens would necessarily be destroyed by the proposed deviation through the village at Cambsslang. The plan did not show that more than four cottages would have to be taken for the purposes of the railway. Mr. Graham's proposed deviation would be at least 100 yards longer than the present line, and a very expensive archway would be necessary to be made, and the turn_ pike road must be altered. The cutting through Mr. Grahatn's property would diminish twenty feet from the central altitule of forty feet. On examination by Mr. HILDYARD—Mr. Errington said that he considered there would be a very increased traffic at the Ki mar nock and Cumnock station in case the Clydesdale Junction Ral way were net made The station at Glasgow could be very greatly en. larged If it was necessary. • - The CHAIRMAN interrupted the cross-examination, and observed that the Learned Counsel was bringing subjects before them on tt e arrangement of erecting a station which did not properly Come under their jurisdiction, but ought to be referred to a decision of the Board of Trade. Mr. HiLnvaansaid, in the present instance it was known that the Board of Trade entertained views which were not exactly in accordance with the opinions held by the Ayr Company. Mr. Graham, the Parliamentary agent, observed that the Clydes dale Company had offered to give a veto to the proprietors of the present station, to prevent, if necessary, the entrance to the station of any objectionable traffic. Mr. HILYARD preferred to go on with the cross-examinaticn, but afterwards the Chairman said that the Committee were resolved to close the evidence against the Clydesdale Junction, if possible, to 55 35 18y 2 4I A ,' 4a4 2G 2% 431 A 2$ 2 2 4 11% 2 49 14-4 7he heat, during the whole day, in the Committee.room was excessive, owing to the defective ventilation, and the CHAIRMAN alluded to it in stringent terms. He further observed that one Hon. Member had been reported to the House for absenting himself from attendance on Railway Committees, and Ise attributed his non. attendance to the inconvenience he felt in breathing the badly. regulated air, and the excuse of the Hon. Gentleman had bow received by the House with cheers. The Committee adjourned till twelve to.morrow. GROUP EE. ABEILDIIEN RAILWAY. This Committee met to-day at twelve o'clock, Mr. Baring Chair man, when the consideration of the clauses of the Aberdeen. Rail way Bill was entered into.' The several clauses were read, and wiit several unimportant amendments, agreed to. The Chairman was then instructed to report the Bill to the House. THE SCOTTISH MIDLAND RAILIA7IIY Mr. HOPE proceeded to open the case on behalf of this line. The Scottish Midland, the Learned Gentleman proceeded to state, via: proposed to be taken through an an important agricultural district. It commenced at Perth, with a population of 20,000, and passed up the right bank of the 'lay to Stanley, an important in-nufacturing village; from thence it left the Tay and writ up the right bank of the river Isley to Cupar Angus, a distance of I,', miles. At Cupar it joined the Newtyle and Cupar Angus Railway, and passed along it for 4,1 miles, which was to be our chased at the price of 15,750/., contingent on the passing of this Bill. Near to Melee it left the Newtyle and Cupar Angus line, and there was here a new portion to be formed of 1 miles. At the cud of this new portion it joined the Newtyle and Glanimia Railway, over which it passed Mr 4i miles, and which was pro. posed to be purchased for 20,00.1. At Glammis a new portion of line ,X'aS to be formed of six miles, by which it would be connected with the Arbroath and Forfar Railway. The total length, including the portions already made, would be 52 miles. For thirteen miles the rails were almost en a level. The severest gradient was one in 125, and there were no tunnels. The largest bride; - ... that over the Tay, would be one of ordinary struc ture. It was only proposed to lay down a single line of rails :it present, but land would be taken for a double line, so that the latter could be found as soon as the traffic justified it. The whole of the capital was 300,0091. wh:, li was amply sufficient for all the purposes of the line, and to make purchases of the portions of railways already formed, pro.. posed to be taken. There was a strong feeling in the district through which the line was proposed to be taken in its favour. The 'petitions in its favour altogether were 17, from Perth, Dundee, Brtchin, Stanley, Glammistown, and the landlords and farmers of the surrounding country. After a general reference to the nature of the opposition offered to the line by certain landholders and road trustees, the Hon. Gentleman proceeded to call witnesses. Mr. Sidey, Lord Provost of Perth, was first called.—There were a great number of fairs held in the district through which the line passed, and a great amount of agricultural produce was ear-- ried from the various markets to be forwarded to the manufac turing; districts. There was a very great cotton manufacturing establishment at Stanley, seven miles from Perth. There were likewise large manufactories at Blairgowrie. The cotton was brought from the west through Perth, and the manufactured goods returned back in that direction. There were extensive bleaching grounds at Luncartie, four miles from Perth. Strathmore was a great agricultural district, and from there and the surrounding country large quantities of cattle, sheep, wool, grain, and potatoes, were every year brought into Perth, to be forwarded to England and the manufacturing districts of Scotland. Of potatoes alone 40,00(1 tons had, during the last year, been shipped at Perth. A very great amount of this traffic would come along this line of rail way, int!, in return, coal would be a large article of transit, The Perth anti Elgin and the Perth and Inverness Railways, proposed to use the line, the one for twelve miles, the other for fifteen miles. To Mr. ANDREWS—The two lines, the Perth and Elgin and the Perth and Inverness, would, he had no doubt, be ultimately carried out. Ile was not well enough informed at present to say how far these two projects would be competing lines. Mr. Buchanan, of Stanley, stated that he was one of a firm there extensively engaged in the spinning of cotton.

GROUP FF. The Select Committee on this group re-assembled at one o'clock this afternoon, and proceeded with the general traffic evidence in favour of the EDINZURGH AND NORTHERN LINE. Mr. Marshall, who had taken an account of the existing traffic on the whole route of the line, and whose evidence in chief closed the proceedings on Saturday, was cross-examined at some length this afternoon, with the view of discovering discrepancies in his tables and calculations, but nothing of any importance, or, at all crento, nothing that appeared likely to shake the foundation of his former testimony was elicited. Air. G ranger, the civil engineer of Edi n b urg h —Had prepared the s. ui pla i n t:c, at a n n i t s i e h ct a i d on s s ur o v f e t y h ed e line under lyungdeenrertahlecoenxsaidmeirid theofalet ion county o tlleCorn. f Fife, with the view to ascertain the most desirable route for a rail way. lie considered the line before the Committee was decidedly the most favourable that could be marked out. Ihe greatest height on the whole line was 279 feet above the let el of the sea, but, comparatively, this was a low level for the district, namely that of the New Town, Ihe main line was about Unity-five miles in extent, and the branch to Cupar five mile,. The severest gradient going northward was I in 125, and going t 3 the south 1 in 100. The declivity on the Cupar branch was lin 185. The line as it approached Kirckaldy became rather steep, the gradients being lin 14, and on this part of the line it would be nectssary t 3 work the trains with a stationary engine. Generally speaking the works on the line were easy. There were three tunnels. The' first was 240 feet in length, the second 200, and the third 150. The archings on the line were 154 yards in extent_ The expenses of constructing the whole lice and works he esti. mated at 550,000/. For the working expenses he would allow 40 per cent. on the gross annual receipts of the line. He thought it highly important that this and other lines running into Perth should have a common terminus at the South Inch there, because it was quite evident to him the lines would give material feeders to each other. The witness was cross-examined at some length by Mr. WHATE- Lxv, to show that the present course of the line would materially interfere with the residence of Lord Rosslyn, and tend to interrupt the performance of Divine service at Dysart Church. It being now four o'clock, the Committee adjourned till twe!vs o'clock to-morrow. GROUP HIT. 23LACILE'URN AND PRESTON RAILWAY. The Committee met at half past one o'clock, Sir Charles Douglas lit the chair, and, after a considerable delay, proceeded to examine the additional information prepared since Friday on the subject of fares and tolls. _ . Several schedules were put in showing, in most instances, consi. derAle reductions, but in some few, where the traffic was but small a moderate increase. A clause was inserted binding ate Company to make cctnpensa. WAYS AND MEANS. There is nothing to be done at the present day, in a com mercial point of view, without ways and means ; and it is quite as possible for a man to attempt to float across the Atlantic Ocean in a washing-tub, as it is for a man to get on in business without the ways and means withal. Now, HYAM possesses all the qualifications ne cessary for carrying out to the fullest extent possible the capabilities of his Herculean Establishments ; for instance, he has a profusion of capital, with which he purchases, for sash only, his woollens and other various materials from the most respectable houses in the king dom. These materials are cut out by the most talented and expe rienced artists in England, and he employs none but the best work men ; he has likewise the largest Assortment of Clothing in the world, and at prices infinitely lower than any other house. Now, here is a striking evidence of ways and means ; and with such over whelming advantages well may HYAM retain that grdat and glorious name which he has so Justly acquired, as the only legitimate CLOTHIER FOR THE MILLION.
