The number of passengers, ' •° ., r dirig to the calculation he had formerly alluded to, was ti e ' 7, BBo. The surveys were made by persons stationed on al`,'• w- hridge between the 7th and 21st of January and at Calford between the 3d and the 10th of February, when Th rave lling was at the lowest ebb. He calculated that in sum tsr there would be an increase of one-fourth, or even one ,eirao n the summer months, as a great many were now in the q c ,abit of goincr, for sea-bathing, in the summer months, to 13olithend W b alton-on-the-Naze, Southwold, Yarmouth, and scveral other places situated on the East coast. He had b O doubt that—if the Railroad were established—the number w °aid be very much increased. In those estimates he had t4,6t t includ e d any of the expected profit from those who now e rav elled by vans, tither fish-vans, or carriage-vans. They ° a' carried on an a ve rag e f rom thr ee to four passengers each ; So'ther h a d h e i nc l u d e d t h at w hi c h wou ld no d ou b t gre at ;utces a of reven ue t o th e ra il roa d ; th e v a s t number ofpas "erlgers who would be landed at Yarmouth from the steam vessels to the northern ports of Europe, as well as the vast 111 -lather which would land at Yarmouth from the Scotch steamers, in order to effect a saving of from 15 to 18 hours in ) 0 ! Passage. The next section was the revenue expected to derived from the general merchandise and provisions conveyed by land. The number of tons, according his calculations, was 3,752,454; as in the former case he e n yieulat e d th e num b er o f journies per annum of those stage neaggons, tax-carts, meat-carts, and fish-vans, which passed Ove r Bow-b r id ge , an d th roug h Widf or d, o f 494 which passed distanc e Bow-bridge, h e su pp ose d th a t 291 t r a ve ll e d on an average 4 di o f 12 m il es ; an d t h e rema i n i ng 203, an average s i stance of 60 miles. Those waggons going 60 miles 10 ee st d calculated at three tons each, which was the rest average yet taken by any rail-road whatever. u c Shorter distance he had taken at a ton and a half, the tax h n a -meat carts at half a ton, and the fish-vans at a ton and a e , l these averages had been taken by three persons 'ationed at Bow-bridge and at Widford. He had not thought k t v o ecessery to go to any further expense, as he thought that idford, being at a distance of twenty-seven miles from Lon -041, 'would give a fair average. The gross amount of revenue elPeeted from this source was 50,456/. The next branch of e Pev enue on which he calculated, was from grain and flour now 11Ported coast wise. He bad 'made his calculations from the , t , e nt Parliamentary returns, which showed the average quari "ea of grain and flour shipped coast-ways, from Norfolk, Suffolk, and Essex. They were for 1825, 6 and 7. The im- Por ts A into Lond on f rom th ose pl aces were 60.000 t ons . bskUming that but one-fourth would be conveyed by an average distance of fifty miles would f "c a renue of 9,375/. The net branch of revenue was re°ra live- ev stock, now conveyed by x land. The Chamberlain o r London's returns, showed that annual sales of live stock in Smithfield w ere , o f ca ttl e , 150,000, o f sheep and l am b s '300,000 ;of pigs, 60,000, and of calves, 21,526.

The next and largest branch of the ex !,i!eted revenue was for the carriage of coals and manure. „,_he Railw a y wou ld carry t h ese at h a lf t h e p resen t c h arge , wh ich would be twopence per ton per mile, and he expected th at at least one half of the consumption along the line would he carried by the Railway, which would give a revenue of 14,319/. He had set down a round sum of 10,000/. f,r the _ a rriage of town manure, lime, &c. For that he had no data , r go by, but there could be no doubt that town manure would very valuable if carried cheap. These calculations gave a total of expected revenue of 496,283/. In all these calcula ti R le ° l 's he h a d t a k en th e averages muc h l ower th an an y oth e r wail•vay. and much lower than he thought was proper. From tile last census he found the population of the three counties Zonated to 1,003,595 persons ; to 740,797 the railroad would Taanilable—that was more than seven-tenths of the whole. r k ing the number of the population of those parishes ich were either intersected oritouched by the railroad, found it to amount to 517,380. He had been engaged for siri a c rly tbwo years in preparing these calculations-‘-in fact ever wi t i g t re e ar a a i r lr e oad was projected, and they had been made out rh Cr oss-eaamined by Mr. HALcomnE—He had found out MM . her of j ourn i es ma d e by stage-coaches, th en am e n the number of passengers, and multiplied them, p ee , got the number of passengers yearly.

MAYO ELECTION.—On Thursday morning the High Sheriff formally announced the retirement of Mr. J. Browne, but the friends of Mr. Robert Dillon Browne continued to poll, until his majority reach 294. Mr. Dillon Browne has been since declared duly elected. The Freeman says, " We do not remember a subject on which more of gross misapprehension and vile misrepresenta tion has been circulated than the election just brought to a close. The rejection of the Hon. Mr. Dillon has been attri buted to every cause but the right one, which we fully ex plained about ten days ago. It was entirely his own fault, aided by foolish advisers. His Grace the Most Rev. Dr. M'Hale took no part in the election except in support of the club; and we can state besides, that Mr. O'Connell authorised his name to be used for the candidate chosen by the people. The Government did not, in any way, interfere." - - . - DISLODGMENT OF THE CARLOW TENANTRY.--This system is still progressing with the most cruel and persevering heart lessness.—Dublin Evening Post. THEIR EXCELLENCIES. —KINGSTOWN, SATURDAY.—Their Excellencies the Earl and Countess of Mulgrave arrived here, at half-past twelve o'clock, in a carriage and four, with out riders. The Firebrand was in readiness for their reception, to sail for England. The people seemed, to a man, to have felt that the administration of his Excellency brought compa rative happiness to Ireland, and on this occasion they proved their characteristic gratitude. The Countess was warmly cheered, and several voices in the crowd were heard to ex claim, " We hope she is going —she is a good woman."— Freeman. FAMINE IN SLIGO AND DONEGAL..—Though we were slow to believe the extent of the privation which prevailed on the north-west coast, and expressed our doubts accordingly, we are now compelled, from the most authentic and unquestion able documents, to state, that this whole district is not only threatened with famine, but is actually suffering under its in fliction. By letters from Balynass, Rushnee, and Carlingford, we learn that the cattle arc dying all around, and that those which arc still kept alive, are fed from the scanty store of potatoes remaining on hands. This will leave the poor of these dis tricts in the most terrible state in the approaching summer. Representatiohe have been made to Government, and the lat ter, with the utmost promptitude, have sent down cargoes of potatoes, and placed funds in the hands of the local authorities, with a view of relief. PUBLIC MEETING AT LIVERPOOL LIVERPOOL, MAY 7.—Yesterday, pursuant to advertise ment, a public meeting was called in the Court-room of the Sessions House, for the purpose of taking into consideration the present critical state of the Irish Municipal Reform Bill. The meeting was advertised to be held at one o'clock. The Nisi Fritts Court, in which it was held, is not capable of containing more than 600 or 700 persons, the great body of the Court being taken up with the barristers' seats, the jury, witness, and other boxes, and the bench. Over the latter are two small galleries, which will probably hold 100 people. At a private meeting of the Tories it was resolved to oppose the resolutions intended to have been adopted on the occasion, and for this object private circulars were issued to the thorough thick and thin Tories, calling upon them to attend, and signed " Peter Wright," who is soli citor to the Conservative Association. The call was re sponded to punctually, for before twelve o'clock a consi derable number of them had obtained admission by the magistrates' private door, and occupied every convenient seat near the bench, which, on both sides of the mayor, was filled by Tories. A considerable number of their partisans were also in waiting at the door in Chapel-street, and when it was thrown open the rush was terrific. Those who'came favourable to the object of the meeting were astonished when the door was first thrown open to find the Court then half filled by Tories ; but so it was, and the fact is worth mentioning as showing the means resorted to on this occasion. The MAYOR, upon taking the chair, briefly stated the objects of the meeting. The requisition having been read by the Town-clerk, Mr. JAMES BRANCKER, rose, and was received with loud cheers, mingled with some expressions of disappro bation. He said that it /was the wish of the gentlemen who had taken the pains to get, up that requisition that they should come to an unanimous resolution, that the meet ing was deeply grateful to the Legislature of the United Kingdom for the reform effected by their wisdom in the municipal institutions of England and Scotland,' - the good effects of which had already been felt and acknowledged.— (A burst of mingled applause and disapprobation.) This was certainly not like the unanimity of which he had spoken, and which he had expected. It had already been felt that the late enactmonts which had tur::ed out a self elected Corporation—(Groans and hisses from the Tories) was a great blessing to the town of Liverpool. (Great cheering and hisses.) Seeing that the Municipal Reform which had been granted to Scotland and England had been productive of so much benefit—(Confusion)—lreland was surely entitled to a participaton in the blessing, and it would be unjust and impolitic—in fact, it would amount to a breaking up of the union between Ireland and England, if the boon were not granted.—(Great confusion.) The ob ject of this meeting was to endeavour, if they could, to turn the Lords to a sense of their duty.—(Tremendous confusion which continued for a considerable time.) Mr. Brancker concluded abruptly by reading the resolution, which was ss follows :—That this meeting is deeply grateful to the Legislature of the United Kingdom for the reform effected by their wisdom in the -municipal institu tions of England and Scotland, the good effects of which are already felt and acknowledged." Mr. JAMES RYLEY, jun., seconded the resolution, amid terrific confusion. Mr. N. C. ROBINSON should move as amendment, " That this meeting feels the utmost confidence in the House of Lords, and viewing with satisfaction the course which has been adopted with respect to the Irish Municipal Reform Bill, they most sincerely deprecate any attempts to inter fere with their deliberations on that subject." Mr. J. BRANCKER'S motion was then put, by show of hands. The Chairman declared that the result to be that the motion was negatived. Mr. T. B. IierIISFALL said, the remarks of Mr. Brancker on the subject of the House of Lords were sufficient to condemn him in the eyes of every respectable man. He believed the principal arguments of that genaleman were founded upon the blessings which England and Scotland had received from the Municipal Reform Bill.—(Hear, from Mr. Brancker.) He should not be afraid of measur ing- the old corporation by the acts of the new. Mr. ri - itomAs BOLTON should propose, as an amendment, " That this meeting is anxiously desirous of seeing ex tended to Ireland a similar measure of reform to that granted to Great Britain, being confident that it would pro duce beneficial results to the inhabitants of that part of the kingdom."—(Applause and hisses.) Mr. W. BROWN seconded the amendment. Mr. SHEIL would touch but slightly on the subject of the Corporation, as his object was to procure justice for his country. They had decided by the Houses of Parliament, ratified by the King, that a change was expedient for the good of England and Scotland. The same change was now contemplated with regard to Ireland, and there were those who refused to grant it. He asked if, after having made the alteration with a view to benefit England and Scotland, which benefit had amply accrued, it was just to deny a similar measure to Ireland? After a few words from Mr. COGLAN, The CHAIRMAN put the amendment of Mr. Bolton, which, on a show ohands, he declared to be negatived.— (Tremendous cheering from the Tories.) Mr. N. C. ROBINSON moved that the meeting be dis solved. The motion was put and carried. Mr. N. C. ROBINSON moved the thanks of the meeting to the Mayor for his impartial conduct in the chair, who, having returned thanks, this unruly meeting separated. On Thursday, the 21st ult., a dinner was given at he London Coffee-house, Ludgate-hill, by the Directors of he London and Edinburgh Steam-packet Company, to R. H. Hamilton, Esq., of Edinburgh, who, for the last 15 years, has tso much to their advantage and the satisfaction of the public, had the management of their concerns in Scotland. From our own experience of the attention paid to the public by this Corn parry, whose interest there this gentleman has conducted, we are not surprised at this mark of respect and distinction paid to his merits. There were present Vice-Admiral Sir David Milne, Charles H. Turner, Esq., James Jones, Esq., E. J. Rothery, Esq., John Roberts, Esq., A. Mitchell, Esq., &c. We regret to perceive in the Literary Gazette the announcement of the death of Mr. J. H. Wiffen, the historian of the House of Russell, and author of other works of consider. able merit. On Monday night Mr. Wiffen retired to rest at Woburn Abbey, where he held the situation of librarian to the Duke of Bedford, and whence his literary productions ema nated, in perfect health and contentment at his usual hour, and in a few minutes afterwards he was a corpse. He belonged to the Society of Friends, and has left a widow and three children to deplore his premature and melancholy decease. His esti mable qualities as a private individual endeared him to all who knew him. In the hostile meeting which took on Friday be tween Colonel Kirby and Captain Dickson, Colonel Kirby's pistol having.missed fire, he demanded a second fire. Captain Dickson said to his second, " You may give Colonel Kirby what he demands, but I shall not fire at him." Colonel Kirby replied, " Well, that ends it," and threw his pistol on the ground. Captain Dickson advanced and offered Colonel Kirby his hand, which was refused, and the parties were taken from the ground. On Monday morning the little village of Holbeton, about nine miles from Plymouth, was thrown into great con fusion by the alarm of fire. Flames were observed issuing from the thatch over the oven, in the rear of a house occupied by a baker, and such was the fury of the flames that within an hour and a half no less than 13 houscs were completely de stroyed ; and the inmates deprived of all shelter, and their furniture burnt or greatly damaged ; fortunately no lives were lost.

Before we close this article, we cannot refrain from adding a few words on the treatment which the Chancellor of the Exchequer has experienced at the hands of a certain portion of the daily press, and which has received the right honourable countenance of Mr. Goulburn. We have ourselves been parties to various applications made to the Chancellor of the Exchequer on the subject in question, and have been cognizant of, though not immediately engaged in others ; but had we not had such opportunities of ascertaining the fact that the metropolitan press was fully represented at the meetings re ferred to, we should not fear the result of an appeal, not to any individual, but to the British people, in the dispute be tween the Chancellor of the Exchequer and an anonymous writer in a Tury journal, even though the veracity of the latter be sworn to by Mr. Goulburn, and his inexperience in Tory principles supplied by the never-failing bigotry of that Hight ' Honourable Gentleman. F7Orrl the Courier.) There seems to be no occasion for our interfering in any way as to the difference of statement which has occurred re specting the proceedings of the deputations from the stamped press of the metropolis, stho waited on the Chancellor of the Exchequer, farther than to express our surprise that the gen tleman who has acted as the chairman of the meetings, who appointed the deputations, and who is in possession of the minutes of the meetings, and of the' subscriptions of those who attended them, has not set all question on the subject at rest, by publishing the correct information which he can at once ainrd. (From the Aye.) On the subject of the Newspaper - Stamp Duties, which has created so much controversy during the past week, both in and out of Parliament, we shall for very cogent reasons defer our statement until next week; ad i , z , erini, however, we must be allowed to state, for our own justification, that the various deputations to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, since July, 1835, representing themselves as delegates from the Proprie tors of the London Stamped Press, were duly authorized by the general body, and have never in any particular exceeded their instructions. The Times, the Herald, the Standard, and the Post, have at many, and indeed almost all, these meetings been represented by accredited agents ; and more over, upon some occasions, the registered proprietors of the Times, the Herald, and the Standard, have been present themselves. The extraordinary statements which have been put forth, demand, and must receive, the fullest investigation. The call has been responded to—the meeting has been called • and as it will soon be apparent whether the Corn. rnittee has or has not acted according to its instructions, we refrain for the present from any observations on the subject.— [ ED. Morning Advertiser.] THEATRES. THE KING'S. Bellini's chef d'oeuvre, La Sonnambula, was performed on Saturday night for the first time this season. The cast, with one single exception, is the same as last year, La Grisi enact ing Amina ; Rubini, Elvino ; and Tamburini, Count Rodolfo. The jealous and malicious Lisa found too amiable a representa tive in Mademoiselle Assandri. She should infuse more venom and spleen into her acting of this part to make it effective. Grisi was in splendid voice, and sang and acted beautifully. Rubini's Elvino is known to be his best acting and singing part, and he sang and acted with undiminished pathos and spirit. lie was, of course, encored in the second act. Tam burini made the most of the Count, and his." Vi ravviso" was admirably given. The three artistes were called for at the termination of the Opera;and warmly applauded. The mag nificent ballet of Benyous4 was afterwards repeated for the second time, and with every prospect of being represented every remaining night of the subscription. The Duchess of Kent, the Princess Victoria, Prince Leinengen, and a long list of fashionable , company, were present—in' fact, the house was crowded in every part. SURREY. During the last week the play-going folks at the Surrey have been amused by interesting dramas, combining incidents rather at variance with those nautical and national adventures which enabled T. P. Cooke, the dramatic hero of the sea, to display his talent in the bold and warlike character of a hardy tar. After the stories of old Charles Dibdin had been over hauled for Poll and my Partner Joe, Tom Tackle, the Ocean of Life, and other materials, a dish of novelty, under the name of The Terrible Unknown, garnished with the Inquisition, murder, treachery, and just retribution, was not a bad offering to the gourmands who have a perpetual appetite for melo drama.' Another bonne bouche was called The Gipsies of Languedoc, the scenery of which is ly.autiful. In both pieces that clever actress Miss Macarthy sustained the principal cha racters with impressive effect. The concluding story of Guy Fawkes, with 0. Smith (the best Guido on the stage), gave general satisfaction. The appearance of tlis conspirator, in his stage costume, is terrible indeed ; and many of our mo dern Senators may congratulate themselves on being safe at the present day from the machinations of such a desperado. On Saturday evening we witnessed the above performances, and observed that the audience were delighted with the efforts made for their amusement. Davidge—in his excellent ma nagement of the Theatre— has required further assistance from his able ally, T. P. Cooke, who will enter again upon the domain of Neptune, and' eep up the spirit of the British Navy. --- BRUSSELS AND GERMAN PAPERS. BRUSSELS, MAY 7.—A violent storm, accompanied with much hail, passed over Brussels yesterday afternoon at five o'clock. The claps of thunder were very frequent and loud.

The Deputation had an audience of the King and of the Minister of the Interior. The King listened to their observations with great attention, and promised to take them into consideration. His Majesty con versed a long time with them on the state of the Manufactories, of their wants, and of the means of procuring a market for their productions. The Deputies were fully convinced that the King thoroughly understands the situation of the woollen manufacture, and takes a lively interest in its prosperity. In their interview with M. de Theux, the Deputies very power fully urged the objections to the article of the proposed law which relates to the abolishing of the prohibition to import French woollen cloths we doubt not that they have shaken his opinion, and at least that he %lin not demand the speedy discussion of the law.

GREECE. (From the Austrian Obsuven) _ _ Accounts from Patras of the 18th April, corning from a re sponsible source, seem to prove that the troubles in Greek Roumelia are on the point of being wholly terminated. The judicious measures of the King's Government have not failed to produce the desired effect. The Roumeliot and Suliot Chiefs, to whom it confided the execution of the difficult task, easily collected the number of troops required. Divided int.) three bodies, they immediately proceeded to attack the rebels near Lepanto, without regard to the difficulties which the nature of the country itself opposed to them. The rebels, so long as they met with no resistance, had boldly refused obe dience to the existing order of things, but they abandoned with equal cowardice their advantageous position on the ap proach of the King's troops, by whom they were incessantly pursued, abandoned by the peasants, who had not joined them except by absolute compulsion, and even by many of their own partisans, who thought it more advisable to enlist under the Royal Standard. The main body of the rebels is reduced to 2 or 300 men, some of whom have shut themselves up in the monastery of Varitadse, near Vorictza, and were endeavouring - to put it into a state of defence. The remainder have intrenched themselves in the village of Trinochoieo ; but they are sur rounded by about 2,000 of the King's troops, and as their stock of ammunition and provisions is small, they will hardly he able to hold out long. Whether they will surrender at discretion, or endeavour, under cover of the night, to open themselves a passage by the sand, will soon appear. In the latter case they may, perhaps, try to escape into the Turkish territory, there to recommence their robberies. It seems, however, that the Vizier of Roumelia, anticipating the possi bility of such a result, has collected a sufficient force on the frontiers to prevent their entrance. Thus the revolutionary attempt of the Constitutional party has again failed. It had undoubtedly very extensive ramifications, not only in Greek . Roumelia, but even in the Peloponnesus. The majority of the disinterested party, who, in consequence of the recent regulations of the Government find means of gaining their livelihood in an honourable manner by enlisting in the King's service, are now as sincerely attached to the Go vernment as they were before hostile to it. A great number of officers, distinguished during the war at the commencement of the Greek insurrection, who have hitherto been destitute of the necessary means of support, are also restored to their former rank in the army. These and other judicious measures authorise the well-founded hope that order and tranquillity will be permanently estab lished in the kingdom.
