CROYDON AND EPSOM ATMOSPHERIC.—The works are progressing rapidly, and a quantity of iron tubes have been conveyed from the New-cross station te several portions of the line. A commodious engine and boiler-house are being built near the Dartmouth Arms station. The boiler house is constructed to contain six gigantic boilers, nearly fourteen tons in weight each. Both of the buildings are covered with an elegant iron roof. The style of the building is pointed Gothic ; and the chimney, which is to be rained to an altitude of 120 feet, is a curious specimen of its class. A considerable number of labourers and others are employed in raising and levelling the read, and in laying the necessary rails, for some distance beyond the point at which the new way will diverge from the Croydon and Brighton lines. The ap paratus for telegraphic purposes is fixed for se veral miles, and, from the general activity:dis played throughout the works, an early opening may be expected. Three of the boilers made at the manufactory of Messrs. Maudesley and Co., in the Westminster-road, lie ready for fitting near the new building on the line nearest the Dartmouth Arms. At Annerley the works assume an elaborate cha racter, long rows of piles being already driven for the purpose of forming an inclined plane and viaduct over the South-Eastern line near that village. Dur ing the last few days the works have been inspected by several noblemen and gentlemen interested in the atmospheric principle. SUSPENSION TUNNEL—Probably- one of the boldest rsilway projects of the day, is that suggested by Mr. Robert Stephenson, the engineer, of era ssing the Menai Straits by means of a tunnel in the air. Mr. Stephenson proposes to throw an iron tube over the Straits, by means of suspension chains, using the. Britannia Rock as a buttress in the middle; the tube to •be 25 feet in breadth, by 15 in depth, constructed in the same way as an iron ..ship, composed of large plates p u t t oge th er i n t h e form of a great iron tunnel. lie also proposes to have two tubes, one for each line of rails, and expresses himself satisfied upon the strength and safety of the tube, having tried experiments on an iron vessel 220 feet in length, suspended by the stem and stern, with a weight of 1,200 tons in her centre, without the slightest straining effect. The plan would be calcu lated effectually to prevent interference with the navi gation, the great difficulty to be encountered in car rying the Chester and Holyhead over the Menal Straits. General Palley, we understand, coincides with Mr. Stephenson in the safety of the method, and Mr. Rendell, who has reported to the Admiralty on the practicability of effecting such a passage of the Straits, so as not to obstruct the navigation, appears to he of opinion that the proposed tube tunnel would be preferable to a bridge, since from its having no joints , it would possess mare rigidity than a common bridge, - and be less liable to the oscillation of the trains. BRISTOL AND BIRMINGHAM LINES.—The Midland Railway has entered into possession and taken the entire management of the Bristol and Gloucester and Birmingham and Gloucester lines ; besides assuming the entire responsibility, an arrangement has been concluded for commuting the dividend to be derived from the current half-year front the revenue of the line between Bristol and Birmingham, at the sum of 26,000/. The Midland Company are, pursuant to the agreement, to pay six per cent. per annum on the united share capital of the two lines, amounting to 1,800,0001. The standing orders in the case of the Birmingham and Gloucester have been dispensed with by the Select Committee, provided no right is con ferred on the Midland to lease the line.

I am still inclined to think so as to some cases. NAMUR and LIEGE RAILWAY. The Directors have the satisfaction of informing the Share holders in the above line, that their Bill was passed by the Belgian Legislature on Friday last, by a majority of 63 to 2. They have the further satisfaction of stating, that the Deputation empowered by them have succeeded in extending the amount pay able to the Shareholders from Six to Seven per cent. before the original " Concessionaires" can participate in any portion, and then only in otice is hereby given that not the Board, after Monday, the instant. such proportion of the surplus profits as was previously agreed upon. It will be perceived that this is more advantageous to the Share holders than the arrangements generally adopted with Foreign Rail ways ; and it is satisfactory to find the conviction of the Fondateurs hi the value of the concern so strong that they did not hesitate thus to postpone their prospect of remuneration.

More recent inquiries, however, have induced me very much to modify this opinion, and I have lately beard a greater willingness to do so expressed by poor persons in my immediate neighbourhood, than I had anticipated. If this be so, there can be no doubt that a means of keeping the expenditure within something like endu rable bounds may thus be attained, while it is universally admitted that there are many classes of the poor, the solitary, the infirm, the idle, and the dissolute, for whom such relief is the most efficient. a~Br T G.

ON ENTIRELY NEW PRINCIPLES, TAILORING-, ►VOOLLEN-DRAPERY, and OUTFITTINGESTABLISIIIIENT, 29, LUDGATE-HILL, Should such houses be encouraged, I trust, however, that the Board of Supervision will find some mode of sparing parishes the heavy charges for architect's bills, in which the counties are mtected in the erection of prisons ; and that the Board, having procured such variety of plans as way suit all parts of the country, parishes may be allowed to remain unacquainted with the architects who drew them ; and permitted or directed, by the Board itself, to build new, or improve old, houses to the form and scale presented to them. 3. I have long been of opinion that a valuable and useful test of pauperism exists, which does not appear to have excited sufficient observation, and which may be turned to good account. I allude to the possession of land.. I do not wish to enter into a discussion on what is called the allotment system, nor of many topics connected with it; but I think that the possession at a fair rent, the limit of which may easily be specified, of a certain portion of land—l leave to others to say how much—should be held to disqualify the individual, or any of his family, who holds it, from claiming parochial relief, and that the receipt of such relief should at once put an end to his holding. Such an enactment would, on the one hand, much relieve the landlord, who has land to give, and not money ; while, on the other, it would be a protection to the poor from those ejectments of which we have heard so much in Ireland, and even in Scotland.

The indisputability of tke policies granted by this Company; . . . v l e t i OT a l s l s E. , r if t St,b ,that troopurr m proprietors. will effect a . We confidently A3 a l r l id TE p r o ' s , y greater saving to the public in th e article of dress, than has ever yet been realised. The Establishm ent of SAMUE L , BROTHERS, is the first in the world which has originated the judicious plan to which publicity is now given —a plan which cannot fail to be hailed with admiration, because, while it realises the most sanguine hopes of the economist, will be a source of pride to its Inventors, based as it is on the most enlightened views, and conducted as it will be upon the most honourable principles. We will now state in what the novelty consists; although simple in its details, it is most beneficial to the public in its operation, and is' neither more nor less than this,—Every customer will be enabled to ascertain the value and quantity of material required for every variety of garngent—each and every Cloth, Castunere, Doeskin, &c. being marked in plain figures at the price per yard, such price being the same as would be charged upon the purchase of the material by wholesale. We shall explain to our patrons the exact quantity that will be necessary for the particular article of dress wanted, and we shall charge separately for the making and trimmings. This system, as a trial of its operation will abundantly demonstrate, will effect a saving of fully one-third of the expense of the articles re quired in Gentlemen's dress. The peculiar advantages pf the system of SAMUEL, BROTHERS, may be practicably exemplified as follows: — The average quantity of Cloth for a Coat is IN yards, suppose that selected be Bs. per yard, the material would cost 145., our charge for making and trimmings would be 18s., thus a really good serviceable Coat completed in the best style will be made to measure Mr 325. Again, suppose the Cloth selected to be 12s. per yard, the material would cost 215., our charge would be 20s. for making and trimmings, and thus a first-rate Coat made to measure and com pleted in the best style will be obtained for 415., few, if arty, charge less than 50s or 525. for the same article. The sante saving will be effected in every description of Clothing. Our charge for making and trimming a Coat for Cloths under lOs. per yard is 18s. and for the higher price Cloths 20s. In quality of cloths, variety of patterns for Trousers—richness and novelty in designs for Vestings, we flatter ourselves that we have a stock that will please every beholder. Noblemen and Gentlemen on inspecting our mode of transacting business, will be astonished at the saving they may effect in their Liveries, in many instances nearly one-half. In order to give every satisfaction, we promise that should an article, after it has been paid for, not please, we will exchange it, or return the money without demur. LADIES' RIDING HABITS MADE IN A VERY SUPERIOR The obligation to pay the sum assured, although the debt for which the policy was taken out may have been paid before the claim arises; Whole world policies not con:ined to the limits of Europe ; Option of half-premium payment for the first seven years— These form a combination of advantages which can be obtained only from the London, Edinbarlili, and Dublin Life Company.

The proposed branch of this Railway is intended to open a direct communication between the towns of Cavendish and Clare, and the navigation of the river Stour, affecting for the inland district of Suffolk what the Dlaldou branch does for the Interior of Essex, ensuring a cheap supply of heavy goods, and a considerable back carriage of agricultural produce. The levels of the country are highly favourable, and the existing traffic sufficient to return an ample dividend on the outlay. Subscribers desirous of taking their portion of the additional Shares must communicate to the Secretary, on or before the 15th instant, the numbers and dates of the Banker's receipts they now hold, otherwise they will be considered as having waived their optian, and the unappropriated Shares will immediately afterwards be allotted to the public, preference being given to the Shareholders in the Eastern Counties and Northern and Eastern Railways. ADVOCATE OF SCOTLAND. TO THE RIGHT HON. THE LORD ntl of My dear Lord,—lt was natural that the House of Commons should hear with admiration, not unmingled with surprise, your clear and able statement upon our Scottish poor-laws. That the former feeling should be general was nn more than all your friends anticipated when they learned by whom the subject was to be pre rented to the House ; and the latter was the equally na tural result of the ignorance which too widely prevails in the Legislature regarding the institutions of a country which, pursuing the peaceful career of industry and im provement, has not, by agitating and perplexing men's minds, compelled, as it were, every citizen of the State to a more accurate and unavoidable acquaintance with them.

An obvious disadvantage, however, attends this good reputation, and it has been frequently visible in the little attention which has been given to the discussion in Parliament of Scottish questions ; and, so strongly im pressed am I with this fact, that in a matter of such importance, great and inconvenient as are the evils of delay, it were far better, as I think, that any measure on this subject should b e we ll cons idered in this session, with a view to its being passed in the next, rather than that, in the short interval of two months, it should at once become the law of the land.

B. MARSDEN has at present a model machine on view, and respectfully solicits orders for the patent ma chines which can be used with equal facility and effect for the finest muslin and the thickest carpets and blankets. 15, Guildford-street, Park-lane, Leeds, May 6, 1845. HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS PRINCE ALBERT has of late taken great interest in the breeding of the Llama, from which a very tine wool is obtained. The cloth made of this is of a peculiarly soft and agreeable texture, and as some curiosity has been raised by the announcement of the registry of a coat under the new Act, by Messrs. NICOLL, of Regent-street, Tailors to the Court, it may be marked that such was made of this material. The coat itself is termed the REGISTERED PALETOT, and in its appearance there is nothing very singular beyond a very gentlemanly neatness and an absende of all unsightly vulgarity. Upon being submitted at Court, it met with high approbation."— Morning Post, April 19. " This garment is so great an imrove ment on the old wrap-rascal, that its general acoption by men of taste is inevitable."—The Sun, April 30. "Amongst the registration of designs, according to the new Act, that of a coat is to be found. The notions of securing the particular substance and out of a coat is cer tainly a new one, but it speaks well for the working of an Act which thus secures the profits of a good judgment and well directed ingenuity to those to whom alone it is due."—The Times, April 4. Registered Paletot, two guineas. 114, Regeut-street, London, four doors north of Quadrant. GOVERNMENT PROTECTION, under 6 and 7 Vie., cap. 65, for three years, obtained by H. J. and D. NICOLL, COURT TAILORS, 114, Regent-street, London, for their new introduction, the REGISTERED PALETOT, which is a summer overcoat, light in weight, embracing the convenience and comfort of the wrapper of tweed and its moderate price, without its inelegant and universally admitted common appearance. The material is of a peculiar softness, made expressly of the finest Llama wool, and in its fashion is neither trop neglige ni trop habille, but whilst showing to advantage the proportions of the figure, it can not encumber flee movement, worn riding or walking ; it will also, from the neatness of its form, admit its being used as a light Frock Coat—a desirable advantage in our warmest summer months,or abroad, where heat is found oppressive. H. J. and D. Nicoll, sensi tive to the importance of that vade mecum—a moderate light over coat—in a climate so changeable as that of Great Britain, would not submit to the public the Registered Pa]etot till themsetves satisfied of its being perfect, and that when used as a pardessus, riding or walking, or as summer frock, the above firm might pledge a reputation, which, g hied by matured skill and honoured by royal patronage, is of some standing. This they can do with safety ; as their new introduction, they respectfully submit, will not compromise that charafteristic of an English gentleman, the unassumed neatness of his attire. As a wide extended sale is sought, the very moderate price of Two Guineas is fixed. Respectable firms will alone be treated with relative to an agency for the sale of the Registered Paletot, to whom alone a discount can be allowed. There being a large and increasing demand, many are kept ready in the extensive wareroona, 114, Regent-street, four doors north of Quadrant. CAUTION TO C ONSUMERS.—DRY GAS METERS. DEFRIES'S DRY METERS have successfully stood the tests six years' trial. Among the 10,000 in use, they have been adopted by the official authorities of the Houses of Parliament, Woolwich Dock-yard, Somerset-house, Foreign-office, Thames Tunnel, United Service, Reform, Conservative, and other Club-houses, the Queen's Theatre, Chinese Exhibition, and many other large establishments. Upwards of 20,000,080 cubic feet of gas have passed through some of these meters without regula tion or repair, and which are still working to the entire satisfaction of the gas company and consumers. All gas consumers who study econemy and a good light are invited to avail themselves of the advantages and comfort to be derived from the use of Defries's Dry Meter, but, to prevent the substitution of im perfect imitations, it is necessary at all times to order Defries's Dry Meter, and to observe his name on the brass badge in front of all his meters. Testimonials from the most eminent and scientific men and large consumers can be had on application (or will be forwarded by post), free of expape, at the Manufactory, 67, St. Martin's-lane, Loudon. Warranted to keep correct in all weathers. MILLER and JONES, 158, Oxford-street Corner of Marylebone-lane. WORKING MEN, beware of those who offer you clothing at what appears to be very low prices. Before you purchase from them reflect a little on the moral consequPaces of the act, and let the fol lowing facts assist you in your reflections : Very cheap cloth Is made chiefly from old woollen rags torn up and re-manufactured. Low-priced, hut rotten, clothes, are made from this cloth, by un fortunate men and women, who receive for their labour a most wretched pittance. The advantages of this fraud and oppression are entirely absorbed by the men who practise it—hence rapid fortunes and palace-like premises. Are you working men inclined to be the encouragers and the dupes of such dealing? Are you disposed to assist these men in grinding the faces ofthe poor? Pay no attention to the puffs, whether in prose or doggrel, that recommend these abominations. Messrs.

THE CURRENCY AND THE ANTI CORN-LAW LEAGUE. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Office of the Society for the Emancipation of Industry, 15, Exeter -hall, May . 10, 1845. SIR,—I request the favour of your giving insertion in your columns to the accompanying correspondence between the Committee of the Society for the Emanci pation of Industry and the Council of the Anti-Corn law League. The object of the Society will be obvious, namely, the development of the truth on an all important social ques tion, entering as it does most certainly into the consi deration severally of " Free -trade" and " Protection," now so much discussed within and without the walls of Parliament. As the Council of the Anti -Corn-law League have shown themselves either unable or unwilling to justify a princ:ple to which they are publicly pledged, the Com mittee of the Society for the Emancipation of Industry, after waiting more than a m ont h w i t h o ut receiving the requested communication, have determined, wit h y our permission, to give publicity to t h e correspondence through the medium of your p a p er . In taking this step, the Committee of the Society are making another attempt to point out the true and only means of alleviating the distress acknowledged on all hands to prevail among the labouring classes, and to ex pose the fallacious character of the system of currency now existing in England —a system which, in its exten sion as proposed to Scotland and Ireland, modified even as it is by the abandonment of an important fl ature, will but aggravate the misery of the industrious popula tion, and accelerate the ruin which, as a c onsequence of the Monetary Bill of 1819, and its " c oraVernent " of 1844, impends over the whole British empire.-1 have the honour to remain, Sir, your obedient servant, ANDREW SPOTTISWOODE, Chairman. No. 1. Office of the Society for the Emancipation of Industry, 15, Exeter-hall, Feb. 18, 1845. Sir,—Perceiving an inconsistency between the prin• ciples on which the Anti-Cornlaw League is founded (viz., those of perfectly free trade in all commodities), and the public and Parliamentary votes of some of the principal members of the League, with reference to one particular commodity, " gold," the C o mmittee of th e e Society for the Emancipation of Industry favoured with answers to the following que stions, vie.:— First, Is the Anti-Corn Law League pr e p ared to ad mit b that the commodity " gold" ought to be subjected to the law of supply and demand, and all the consequences of that law, as well as cotton, iron, or any other com modity? Second, If so, is the League prepared to maintain that when the Legislature select COLD as the money of the country, it should, as COIN, be exempt from that law of supply and demand to which it is so admitted the mer chantable metal ought to be subject? I am requested by the Committee of the Society to ask the favour of an early reply to this communication, and I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient servant, (Signed) ANDREW SPOTTISWOODE, Chairman. To the Chairman of the Anti-Corn - Law League. No. 2. National Anti-Corn -Law League, 67, Fleet-street, London, February 28, 1845. Sir,—l beg to acknowledge the receipt of your favour of the 18th inst., and I am directed to refer you for a solution of the questions you have proposed to the ac knowledged authorities on political economy, as the Council are not desirous to enter into controversy on such points.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, A. L. SAUL. Andrew Spottiswoode, Esq., Chairman, &c. &c. No. 3. Office of the Society for the Emancipation of Industry, 15, Exeter Hall, March 3, 1845. Gentlemen,—l am requested by the Committee of the Society for the Ema nci p ation of Industr y to ac knowledge the receipt of the reply of the Council of the Anti-Corn-law League, thr ou g h Mr. A. L. Saul, to the commun ication made to them on the 18th of last month. As the Council of the L ea g ue and their lecturers h ave d the wages of la bour, the Committee of the Society, as part of that pu blic, felt themselves j ustifi ed prices an in structorspl acd themselves and interpreters prominently of the effects with all courtesy in asking a reply to the questions pro pounded in their former co mmunication. Anxious to investigate the truth, and not being aware who are the writers whom the Council consider to be the acknow ledged authorities on political economy, the Committee request to be informed. The Council of the League must at the same time be aware that the fundamental principles of any society can never be identified in the miscellaneous writings of other parties, and that unless the Council are prepared explicitly to avow.and explain their own opinions, they Will never be able to maintain that position in public es timation to which they have aspired. The Committee of the Society for the Emancipation of Industry, with a view to the establishment of correct opinions on tho u s ubject in quest ion, p ro pose to give pub licity to this correspondence ; and, in order that the Council of the Anti... Corn-law League m4 y fully under stand the object of their former questions, they beg leave to add one raore 3. If gold, the measure of value, be excluded from the ' l w of supply and demand, and its price be fixed as it Inow is, dues it not inevitably follow that all prices whe- The current Of popular feeling is, at the present mo ment, against any one who may do so, and my language may be attributed to feelings of self-interest, to which I do not pretend to be insensible, but which Ido not in the least fear your assigning to me to any undue extent; while, I entertain a hope that a long residence in the north of Scotland, and I know not why I should not say it, a devotion of at least an average contribution to the claims of poverty and sickness, may, where I am known, procure for me a similar acquittal. Premising, then, that in what I have to advance, I speak solely with refirence to rural and landward pa rishes, and chiefly, though by no means exclusively, to those in the Highlands. I. I fear that it is not by many very clearly seen, what may be the effect in such districts of the new law ; and that a result ruinous to the landholders, and, conse quently, to other classes, will arise from the endeavour to raise its superstructure too exactly upon the widil and straggling, and, as now considered, the uncer tain base of the old one ; and the difficult endea vour to make one enactment serve alike for north and south, for town and country. I take at once, as a fair instance, a parish near this, and presenting no very peculiar features. In this parish, it has been the practice of the Kirk session to endeavour to give aid to as great a number as possible of those who appeared to require it, and though the sums given are not large, there will, in these twelve months, have been so relieved, about 180 persons or families. I may here observe, that should it be said that all these cannot possibly be bona fide paupers, I reply that it has not been the usage of Kirk-sessions in the High lands to be guided by the most rigid rules as to this. In truth, they are not without excuse ; for it has so long been held, and by no mean authorities, that parochial relief in Scotland is given rather as an aid than for maintenance ; that it is not wonderful, that small as these funds frequently are, they are often very widely diffused ; and I will not assert, that possibly an English Poor-law Commissioner might not say, on examination of this list, " I find of these ISO, not more, according to the Scots law, than 40 real paupers—of these 10 should have out-door relief ; 30 should go to the workhouse ; and as for tile other 140, they may be poor, but they are not paupers." He might, however, come to a very dif ferent conclusion, and, at all events, the numbers re lieved in the parish are as I have stated. Of course, there are diversities of condition among these ; but I take it there are few of them who could not make out a board of gentlemen sitting in Edinburgh, a case of poverty. The distinction between the regular poors' roll and that of the occasional poor, it may be remarked , has in practice never been much attended to in the highlands, the poor being rather disposed in classes, according to the amount paid to them, than divided into two distinct sections ; and under these cir cumstances, there is not one of these recipients who, in the present day at least, would not call himself a pauper, or be so called by the agent who might take him by pe tition to the Supreme Court. If, then, with the numbers of the poor thus deter mined under the whole law, you proceed under the new law to adjust their rates of allowance, let us see what will be the result in this parish. Five guineas is, I believe, a fair quotation of the aye rage annual sum which the promoters of these changes demand from each individual or family. This gives 9451. and the expense of management, me dical attmdance, and education of poor children being added, it is clear that 1,0001. will not be an over-esti mate. The nett laud rental of the parish, or rather the rental after paying Kirk, King, assessments for prisons, roads, 84e., ordinary management, and unavoidable re pairs, may be stated at 2,700/. Ido not deduct mort gages incurred in improving the productiveness of the soil, legal provisions to widows and children, bad debts, or any of those ordinary drawbacks which a liberal pro prietor may well consider unavoidable ; but, taking the nett rental as I have stated it, the charge for the poor will be 37 per cent. I am, of course, aware that part of this is payable by the tenantry nominally, but, it is very obvious, really by the landlords—and as for what is ex igible from feuars and the like, it will not in many in stances be worth collecting. These, in varying proportions and degrees, I know to be the circumstances, not of one, but of fifty parishes, or, possibly, many more ; and I desire to assure you, that I am unconscious of exaggeration in my statement. Its correctness is well known to hundreds, who, how ever, are, unfortunately, not legislators, and will only be attempted to be denied or explained away by those who, being acquainted with none but more wealthy countries, are ignorant of it ; or by others who may be seeking no more than a cheap reputation for philan thropy. I may be told that I am more alarmed than is neces sary ; that things will not be so very bad ' • that we may have implicit faith i n th e b oar d, an d so forth. It may he so ; but this assurance will hardly have much value till the figures I have given are disproved ; and, as to the proposed board, several of whom are my valued friends, while I beg to say of one and all of those who as yet compose it, that I do not think it possible to select, in the kingdom, the same number of individuals, better fitted by character and ability, for this or any similar duty ; nevertheless, as I cannot tell how long we may have their services, and am equally ign m'ant of the rules by which they or their successors may he guided, I must be permitted to express my be lief; that few will be content to hold their estates under any such doubtful tenure. But, if such be the state of matters in parishes like the one I have referred to, what will be the fate of many who possess estates in the north-west highlands and INlands ? I firmly believe, that in many of these the nett rental will not give to the whole of those whom the kirk session would w ish to r( Have, any thing approach ing to the allowance which is contended for ; and, if this be so, there can be but one result. Such of these unfortunate proprietors as have no other source of in come, must follow the footsteps of those whom the an nihilation, by legislation. of the kelp manufacture, drove to Australia and elsewhere, of whom several occur to my memory, at this moment, and will, as readily, to yours. The owner of ten thousand a-year may contrive to surrender 37 per cent. ; the owner of one thousand can hardly do so ; and ite natural unwillingness of all men tp descend, in their own neighbourhooti 4 from the toT to the bottom of the social scale, will cause their estates to tp be handed over to their creditors, who will become known to the residents or them, only through the medium of un agent, whose more stringent management may per haps induce them to doubt if they have, after all, been gainers by the change—while the und ra i ne d , neglected, and wood-stripped soil, and ruined mansion, will, remind To close these remarks, I beg leave to make the fol lowing suggestions—: 1. That it be expressly enacted, that the receipt of relief, under the existing law, shall, in itself, constitute no claim whatever under the new one ; but that the local Board, or the paid inspector, be directed, as the first act of their administration, to make a new survey, and submit, to the general Board, their opinion as to those who come, in law, strictly under the denomination of paupers ; dividing these into two classes, viz., those to whom out of-door relief is more suitable, and may safely be given, and those to whom a Poor-house is a more fitting asylum. 2. That in all parishes, without exception, a poor house be permitted, and that unions of parishes, for this purpose, be also allowed, without limitation as to popu lation; and that existing buildings may be temporarily , fitted up, and used as poor-houses, till the wants and con venience of the parish or union are ascertained. 3. That the possession of land, under the circum stance, and to the extent above alluded to, be held a bar to parochial relief being afforded to any one residing upon it, and 4. That some reasonable limit of so much in the pound on the nett or gross rental of the parish be fixed as that beyond which poors rate shall in no case be leviable ; and that this limit be varied in different pa rishes in the ratio of their rentals, which generally afford a fair indication of their relative circumstances. These amendments, if I may, without great presump tion, so style them, appear to me indispensable to pre vent consequences, which, I fear, are hardly contem plated, and which, I am sure, you do not desire. I am well aware that there are many other aspects in which the whole of this subject may be viewed, but so much has been addressed to the public, and may con tinue to be so, with reference to these, that I gladly confine myself to that which has more specially given ' rise to the foregoing remarks. I have striven to give to the subject of these an accu rate, and, I hope, an impartial, examination ; and now, in common with others, await, in deep and natural anxiety, the final resolve of the Legislature upon this momentous subject.—l have the honour to be, my dear 14 , rd, yours very faithfully, - GEORGE DEMPSTER Skibo Castle, April, 1545. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. (From the Morning Chronicle.) ELECTRIC TELEGRAPIL—We understand it is the intention of Government, in conjunction with the Chester and Holyhead Railway Company, to have the electric telegraph established on that line, reaching from London to Holyhead, a distance of be tween 200 and 300 miles, and embracing in its route the commercial capital) of Liverpool, Manchester, and Birmingham. The success of the apparatus in the South Western and the Adiscombe, between London and Portsmouth, 88 miles, is said to be the super- inducing:cause of its proposed establishment on the Chester and Holyhead line. The adoption of this invention on a scale of magnitude bids fair to effect a radical change in the entire correspondence of the country, by bringing as it were momentarily into close consolidation and communion, the ex changes of London, Liverpool,' Manchester, and Birmingham, conveying with lightning like velocity every fluctuation of affitirs, and tele graphing from mart to mart, with marvellous exactitude, and over areas of hundreds of miles, intelligence that may be received and reciprocated almost simultaneously by every , mercantile community in the kingdom. Great ad vantages have already been developed to the Admi ralty and commercial world, by its adoption between London and Gosport. The old semaphore system is now nearly superseded, and important Government orders and intelligence, that formerly occupied hours in transmitting by the ordinary semaphores between London and Portsmouth, are now forwarded and fulfilled in little more than a few seconds, the com municating wires which will shortly be carried from Nine-elms to the Admiralty, at Whitehall, terminat ing in the very barracks of the garrison at Gosport. The establishment of telegraphic communication be tween Liverpool and Holyhead, Lloyd's and London, will give every facility for shipping purposes ; and in this respect the invention has worked most efficiently between London and Southampton, where, as at Gos port, there is a telegraphic station, telegraphic notices being daily dispatched, on the arrival of important mails and merchantmen. The advantages, moreover, that may accrue from a line of wires to Holyhead, in establishing a closer connexion between the metro polis and the sister isle, is of a nature not to be overlooked, either in a political or social point of view. Lines of telegraph, we understand, have been or are about being adopted on the following amongst other lines :—On the South Western, as a Government tel eg r a ph f or th e Ad m i ra lty t o Ports mouth, 90 miles. On the same line, as a commercial telegraph, from Nine Elms to Southampton, 77 miles, with branch to Gosport, 21. On the South Devon atmospheric line, now in progress, 52 miles. On the Great Western, from Paddington to Slough, 18 miles. On the Yarmouth and Norwich, 20 miles. On the Dover line, from Tonbridge to Maidstone, 15 miles. On the Croydon, atmospheric. On the Blackwell ; on part of the Manchester and Leeds and its branch to Oldham; on part of the Edinburgh and Glasgow ; upon the Dalkey atmo spheric branch of the Dublin and Kingstown, appli cable alike to the conveyance of commercial intelli gence, and to the safe conduct and working of the line. The above embraces an extent of nearly 250 miles, over which the telegraph principle is already in operation ; and its adoption between London, Liver pool, Manthester, Birmingham, and Holyhead, will add about 300 miles more. ExcnasioN TRAINS.—London is likely to receive this week a large influx to its pleasure population, arrangements Having been made for running cheap excursion trains from nearly all the great cities and towns, north, south, east, and west. The Birming ham, Great Western, South Western, Dover, and Brighton, we believe, dispatch pleasure trains, for one fare each way, and the northern lines run short ones to the various localities on the route. The Liverpool and Manchester provide cheap waggon trains fzor n Manchester to Liverpool and back, furnisluel with seats, and have entered into arrangements with the conductors of the various Sunday schools for con veyance of the scholars. The Manchester and Leeds propose to convey whole Sunday schools from Man chester to Wakefield, and other places on their line on fo s r a 2 t 5. 6 6 d d .. a eac h i e l, ad in , b se oth I va c'ra s s ' s a c n a d rri t a h g ei s t: . cote - t in ea N c v h a e g r g s The Manchester and Bolton run special trains at reduced fares, every quarter f o an hour, to the liersal Moor races, and make trips from Manchester to Preston an d Fleetwood, at which latter p.e 1 lace pleasure steamers are to ply in different sea • th journey • excursions during the day, ,„. : e from Manchester to Fleetwood to be per formed in little more than two hours, allowing visitors nine hour s at Fleetwood.

They also r un t ra i ns to the Chester races, in each ease by special train, so as to prevent a recurrence of the de lays of last season. The Hull and Selby and Midland lines are to send excursion trains, with free trade freights of visitors to London, from Leeds, York, CHELTENHAM AND GREAT WESTERN.—TO-dAy this line, which starts from the Swindon station, opens as far as Glou, - ,ester for passenger traffic only, with intermediate stations at Tetbury-road and Stroud. The remainder of the line will, we under stand, be completed without delay. The minor sta ' Lions at Branscoinbe and Stonehouse will be opened by June. By this line two complete routes will he accessible—namely, via Birmingham and Swindon. Swirr TRAINS.—It is proposed, we hear, to start another fast train on the Great Western, to accom plish the distance between Exeter and London in 4} hours. On Wednesday, one of the express trains on the London and Birmingham ran the 112 miles in 2:1 hours. It is expected that the distance between Liverpool and London, nearly 200 will pre sently be r.cl in 4, 1 2 hours. The Midland lines have joined in the general acceleration. TEsTimoNiAl.s.—On Wednesday last a service of plate, value 200 guineas, vas presented to Mr. Alder-' man Carr, a director, by a number of shareholders in the North Midland, in testimony of the sense they entertained of his services in effecting economical re forms in connexion vs ith the Company. On the pre vious Friday a silver tea service was presented to Mr. P. Clarke, late superintendent of the Midland Rail way, by the officers and heads of the establishment, as a testimony to his efficient services. A similar testi monial has also been presented by the shareholders to Mr. J. B. Badham, secretary to the Bristol and Exeter line, of the value of 100 guineas, accompanied by a purse of 1,150 guineas, subscribed for by nearly 400 shareholders. Mr. Linn, superintendent of the Glasgow and Coal-bridge, was last week presented with a watch and a purse of sovereigns by the officers associated with him. We trust it is by an oversight of the Committee of Selection that Mr. Gibson Craig has been placed at the head of the committee on the Porismouth lines. In this committee is to be decided the question be tween the atmospheric and a locomotive line ; and to have placed at the head of it a former member of the atmospheric committee, one echo has signed his name to Lord Hewick's report, and who, we perceive, in a majority of cases, vo t e d w i t h Lord Howiek and against Mr. Hodgson Hinde, in that committee, is to have overlooked all the principles by which men are usually guided, who wish to provide for a disputed case an impartial tribunal.—llailway Chronicle. The Midland Company have purchased the Melton and Oakham Canal, at 60/. per share. THE GRAND JUNCTION AND THE BROAD GUAGR. —There has been, during the last few days, a rumour to the effect that the Grand 'Junction Company will, in the event of the Great Western Company proceed ing with their line from Oxford to Rugby and Bir ming, carry on the broad guage from the latter town to Liverpool and Scotland, tl - ereby reducing the journey from the metropolis to this town to three hours and a half.—Liverpool Times. As a: specimen of the unscrupulous manner in which evidence is got up before Railway Commit tees of the House of Commons, it was asserted last week, before the Committee on the North Lin colnshire that since of the Hull and coach running be tween Nottingham and Hull. The witness was from from Nottingham to Barton-upon-Humber • and yet there is a daily thiscoach self-same Barton waterside ; besides which, the Nottingham and Lincoln mail con nects with the Lincoln mail to Hull by way of New Holland.—Notts Journal. BRIGHTON. —Yesterday morning the office of the London-bridge terminus of this line was besieged by persons anxious to avail themselves of the oppoi• tunity of visiting Brighton, and returning the same day fbr as., the sum charged by the Directors yes terday, and which they have given notice will b e continued during the present week, for the thira class trains. Upwards of one thousand persons were conveyed by the first train, and nearly the same number by the second train, the other trains during the day to Croydon and other places on the line were also filled, nearly two thousand persons passing up and down. GREENWICH.-Up to seven o'clock last night up wards of 20,000 persons proceeded by the trains from the London bridge station to Greenwich. RAILWAY BATIIS. —The Dub;in and Kingstown R a il wa y Company announce that they will receive proposals from persons wishing to become tenants fur the present season for the Company's bathing places at Salt-hill, Monkstown, and Blackrock. Ail sub scribers to the line, holders of railway, bathing, and morning tickets, to have free cold bathing at any of the Company's baths, the tenant Providing attend ance, towels, and all necessary accommodation, free of charge.
