H ER MOST GRACIOUS MAJESTY THE QUEEN Haring been pleased t 4 send a Donation of 20/, to the Fund now raising in consequence of the late Calamity on the Scrohy Sand ; and the Subscriptions already received from several Noblemen, Public Companies, Insurance Societies, Private Individuals, and others, to gether with the Inhabitants of Yarmouth and the neighbourhood, amounting to a considerable sum ; the Committee confidently hope that the benevolent objects contemplated in the following appeal, and .4tated in the concluding paragraph, may be fully realised through the increased assistance and sympathising liberality of the public at large. • AUTHORISED STATEMENT OF THE CALAMITY AND LOSS OF LIFE ON THE SCROBY SAND, OFF YARMOUTH BEACH, On SUNDAY, JANUARY 2i. 1545. TO THE NOBILITY, GENTRY, AND CLERGY. AND TO THE SHIPPING, MA ,UFACTURING, AND TRADING POPULA- MN OF ENGLAND. It is well known to those acquainted with the Eastern roast of Norfolk. that, during heavy gales, the immediate vicinity of Yarmouth !toads is one of ike molt dangerous parts of the entire coast of England. . The number of wrecks which occur on the Barber, Cross, Corton, and especially the Scroby Sands, has long ago induced a-hardy; brave, and intrepid race of ►nets to devote their entire lives to the saving of property and life along the coast. A. number of boats called yawls, measuring from 50 to 80 feet long, and from 30 to 50 tons burden, have, at an expense of from 3001. to 4001. each, been built by the joint contributions of the Beachmen, who have f rmed themselves into companies for that purr,ose. With these they often leave the shore at the most Imminent risk of their lives, not only when the chance of saving property holds out to them the hope of a large reward in the shape of salvage, but with no less earnestness and intrepidity when the only satisfaction they have In prospect is rescuing from a watery grave some of their fellow creatures. On no occasion is it remembered that this noble and disinterested daring was more magnanimously displayed than on Sunday, the 26th of January, 1845, on which day, during a veryheavy gale from N. W. and by W. no lass than five brigs were in distress, four upon the Scroby Sand and one upon the Barber. In no one of these cases was there, at the time of their condition being discovered, the slightest probabi lity of saving anything like property. Nothing, therefore, but the warm prompting: of humanity could offer any inducement to the iieachn►eu to man their boats yet they hesitated not a single mo ment, but at once launched their gallant barks and set forward to the rescue. Happily their efforts, in four Instances, were successful la saving all the crews. The Cnister henchmen, with their yawl, Storm, succeeded in saving the crew of the Elizabeth, of Scarborough, nine in number. The ilolkham Company, in their Tewl, the Red hover, 38 tons, went off to the brig .True, of Whitby, from which, although the yawl sustained considerable dainne, they succeeded in rescuing the crew, nine in number. The Young Company, with their yawl, the Sailor's Friend, of 48 tons, succeeded, at very considerable risk, in taking off the crew of the brig Choice, or Newcastle, also nine in number. The Star Company, in their yawl, Pleunix, went off to the Ann, of Sunderland, from which, after splitting the stein and carrying away the mast of the yawl, they rescued and safely landed the creve of nine men. Raving thus far been enabled to record the meritorious and sue cemsful conduct of these gallant men, who, in addition t• the im►ni nent risk of their lives, have suffered considerably in the injury done to their property—for which no remuneration can be anticipated but from the benevolence of a British public, it remains to relate the me lancholy catastrophe which forms the climax to this statement. The Beachmen of the " Pluenix" having safely landed the crew of the " Ann," and being themselves much exhausted, a fresh crew of the same Company re-manned the yawl, and immediately proceeded to another vessel lying in distress on the Scroby ; the what was then blowing a hurricane. On nearing the vessel, they found the sea running over her, and made an unsnCcessful attempt to reach her ; falling to the set, they let go their anchor and veered down ; unfortu nately the Ibree of the sea drove the yawl upon the brig and dashed her to - pleces;.when the Beachmen--with the exception of one man (named Abraham Wetherell), who sank with the yawl—got on board the brig, which was now drifting, and every sea breaking with tre mendous violence over her bull. The accident being witnessed from the chore several men belonging to the different Companies manned the life-boat and flew to their as sistance. The danger of all was extreme, and those on shore trembled alike for the poor fellows on the brig and those in the life-bout. Hap pily she reached the brig though too late for runny, some of whom were carried overboard by the falling of the brig's masts, and some drowned on the wreck. Six only of the " Phomix's crew were saved;; Mel of the brig's crew, who were in a state of exhaustion when the " Pluenix" first reached her, the whole perished. Thus in the noble attempt to save the lives of their fellow-men, seven of our gallant beachmen thund a watery grave, leaving behind them font - widows and fourteen children (ten of whom are under twelve years of age) totally unprovided for, as well as the aged mothers of the three single men. Their rt: es were Abraham Wetherell (leaving a widow and nine children), James Shreeve (widow and three children), ( - Wiliam (alias James) Wiling (widow and two children), James Boulton (widow), William Warner, George Points, and James George, single men, but upon whom their widowed mothers, or aged parents, depended for subsistence. To provide a flual to relieve the necessities of the bereaved—to re ward the noble fellows who so gallantly risked their lives for othefie- , - to assist in replacing the serious loss suffered by the boatmen—said to form a nucleus for a permanent Auld for the relief of sufferer' muter similar calamities in future—is the object of the present' appeal. Subscriptions will be received at the banks of Messrs. Barclay and Co., and Sir R. C. Glynn and Co., London ; and at any of the banking houses In Norfolk and Suffolk. Signed on behalf of the Committee, W. HURRY PALMER, Mayor of Great Yarmouth, Chairman. Committee-room, Town-hall, Feb. 24, 1845.

Ace to Members whose Premiums itat the same must be paid within Here, then, are conflicting testimonies which we can not put to any proof that will be thought satisfactory. Our means of inquiry do not enable us to give any de cisive opinion on this doubtful point; and in directing the attention of the Committee upon the Bill to the question, whether a line of railway through this district may be justified by the prospect of receiving upon it sufficient traffic to support it, we can only say, that the country generally has been much improved since the Commissioners made their report; that we cannot take on ourselves to state that the traflic will be inadequate to maintain a line cheaply made and economically worked; but that we have no doubt whatever on our minds that only one line of railway between Galway and Dublin, whether it proceed by Athlone and Mid linger, or by Athlone and Tullamore, can he supported under the present circumstances of that part of Ireland. ..The question, therefore, is narrowed into asking which of the two proposed schemes is preferable; and here a more minute description of the opposing projects be comes necessary. The Mullingar line commences on the north side of the city of Dublin, near the basin of the Royal Canal, and is intended to be carried along its towing-path, with such deviations only as are required to keep the curves to a moderate radius where angles of the canal present themselves. As might be expected the gradients are unexceptionable, and the work is light, except at one point, where a viaduct, 250 yards long and 69 feet in extreme height, is to be constructed. The line finally leaves the towing-path at about one mile from Mullin gar. which is nearly 50 miles from Dublin. From Mullingar to Athlone the distance is about 29 ~milea...and the line does not appearto - prelm iany forint.; - stable engineering obstacle or unusual difficulty in its construction. The branch to Longford from Mullingar is about 251 miles long : the earthworks upon it are heavy for about 11 miles, but the remeindar being easy of construction, the entire branch may be classed with moderate lines as regards the formation. With respect, however, to so much of the line as runs by the side of the canal, it is necessary to remark that the section which has been deposited with the Board of Trade does not give an adequate representation of the extent of the work required, as, unless the towing-path be twenty-eight feet wide, (the ordinary breadth of a railway) it must be widened, and all the inequalities of the original surface of the ground become essential in gredients in the labour of the earthworks. It must also be remembered that the expense will be increased by the necessity of forming a new or additional towing , - path for the traffic of the canal, which it is imperative on the projectors to provide for, when the present towing-path shall be converted into a railway. The Royal Canal, on the banks of which this line is proposed to ha made, was formed by a Company in corporated in 1789 ; but after large sums both of public and. private money had been expended, it became bank rupt in 1812, and fell into the hands of the creditors, who were incorporated by Act of Parliament, and are now the Royal Canal Company. With them the promoters of the Mullingar scheme have entered into an agreement for the purchase of the canal, in case they should obtain their Act ; and it is expressly stipu lated that the canal is to be maintained, and every facility which is now afforded for the navigation to be continued by the purchasers. The promoters of this scheme have also lodged plans for an alternative line from Dublin to Mullingar, irre spective of the canal, which line would be easy of con struction ; but as the promoters rest their case on the merits of the project immediately connected with the canal, there is no necessity for giving a detailed state ment of the circumstances of the alternative line. From Athlone to Galway the line, for which plans have been deposited by the same parties, passes by Bal linasloe and Oranmore to Galway. Its gradients are generally good, except at one place, where there is an ascent of 41 miles long at 1 in 130, and a descent of three miles at the same gradient. Parts of the works are heavy, especially where the river Shannon is crossed at an elevation of 22 feet, the river being 700 feet wide ; and between the 18th and 27th mire, where the earth works are considerable, one cutting being more than two, miles in length, above half a mile of which will exceed 40 feet in depth. It is to - be observel that Loughrea is ornittnl by the proposed scheme, which passes about ,six mileslerthes north of that town. Having made their surveys and estimate', both with regard to construction and traffic, the promoters have come to the conclusion, that a railway of this description between Athlone and Galway cannot succeed as a spe culation ; and, therefore, they are not desirous of making it. But at the same time, should any strong wish be entertained by Parliament that, for national purposes, railway communication should be established entirely across the island from Galway to Dublin, they are pre pared, through the means which they hare taken, to meet such a wish, and thereby prove that they hare not been regardless of what might be thought right of them to do, in carrying out their scheme for the benefit of the p ublic. The line of the rival Company, commencing at Galway, passes by Oranmore, Loughrea, Ballintsloe, Athlone, Monte, Tullamore, Phillipstown, and Edenderry, to join the Great Southern and Western a short distance west from Naas. Such is the line for which the plans be been deposited ; but under an arrangement with ..se Great Southern and Western Company, the promoters have decided on abandoning so much of their scheme as is comprehended between Tullamore and Naas, and instead thereof they will apply for powers to make a line from Tullamore to Portarlington, there to run into the Great Southern and Western Railway, in order to de crease, as far as they can, the extent of new railway to be constructed, and at the same time to obtain from the Great Southern and Western Company assistance and support. The gradients for the most part are 1 in 200, but not continuous, as they _arc divided into a great number of short planes, ascending and descending alternately, and chiefly at the above inclination. The line runs nearly on the surface of the ground, and the earthworks, conse quently, will be very light. Crossing the canal and the Shannon involves expense ; the bridges for this pur pose will be nearly the same as in the scheme just de scribed. It is quite clear, from this short description, that, as regards the two lines between Athlone and Galway, the one which is proposed by the !promoters of the Dublin and Galway scheme is preferable, both with respect to gradients, the extent of earthworks, and the cost of for • mation. Between Athlone and Tullamore the lino will be inexpensive, and between Tullamore and Portarlington (the portion for which plans are not lodged, but which the promoters hope eventually to obtain the power to make) it will be of the same character. It is necessary to allude here to the Grand Canal, which, commencing at Dublin, traverses the same dis trict with the Dublin and Galway line, as far as 13allina sloe ; but, with the exception of Tullamore, no inter mediate town is directly served by both, so that, though they might compete generally for the traffic of the dis trict, they could not be said to compete directly for the traffic of the towns close to which they respectively pass, except' with regard to Ballinasloc and Tullamorc. The Grand Canal Company, alarmed by the prospect of a railway so close to them, have proposed to construct a railway along their banks, but have not lodged any plans for the purpose ; they have only intimated their intention of doing so at a future period, as a defensive measure. But into the particulars of this scheme it is needless to enter : with respect to it we can only say, that so far as we now see, it does not appear to be at all desirable. It is necessary also to notice a project for connecting Gal. way with Dublin, by way of Loughrea, Parsonstown, and Roscrea, falling into the Great Southern and Western Railway, near Borris-in Ossory ; but no plans have been deposited for this purpose with the Board of Trade, beyond what may justly indicate an outline of the scheme. The projectors desire that time may be afforded to examine fully into the merits of all the schemes in connexion with this district. But we are of opinion that delay, in this case, is unnecessary, as the project presents to our view nothing sufficiently valuable in itself to give it an undoubted preerence. Thus, then, we have two schemes before us, both easy of construction; one giving railway accommodation to Mu linger, to the counties of Westmeath, Longford, and Leitrim, but practically bounded by the line of the Shannon; the other having the advantage of a trunk line about forty miles in extent, into Dublin, made by another company, and reaching across Ireland to the Atlantic. The Mullingar scheme might be extended at a future time beyond Longford, and branches from it might be thrown off to the north if required; but on the o d t i l a i te er ly h a b n r d in t g h e th D e u d b is li t n ri catndwGal way important garrison town of At hlone into railway con. traverses sehem e w i s% i d m m t h e ; nexion with the whole of the south of Ireland by means of its junction with the Great Southern and Western Railway, at Portarlington. The Mullingar scheme in volves the following quantity of work to be executed : Dublin to Athlone Mullingar to Longford Athlone to Galway 4B. Total railway to he made while by the Dublin and Galway scheme there will be required from Galway to Tullamore BO miles Tullamore to Portarlington (about) 15 Total railway to be made 95 The promoters of the Mullingar scheme believe that a great saving will be effected by constructing their lines on the bank of the Royal Canal. But considering that the canal must be maintained, that in some places addi tional land must be purchased, that the bridges must be altered, and that in those places where the towing-path occupies the bank which is to be used for the railway, a new towing-path must be made on the opposite side of the canal, we doubt whether any such saving as they contemplate could be effected ; and we are of opinion that the cost per mile of the line from Dablin to Athlone by the canal, together with the branch to Longford, will not be less than the cost per mile from Galway to Por tarlington by the.publin and Galway scheme. We have, therefore, fur the purpose ut connecting Galway with Dublin, the Mullingar scheme, involving I 1271 miles of new railway, as compared with o nl y 95 t miles of new railway required by the Dublin and Gal way scheme. But, if the extension of the Mullingar 'scheme from Athlone to Galway be set aside, we then have a proposal to accommodate Longford, Athlone, and Mullingar with 104 miles of new railway, to be com pared with the project for accommodating Athlone, • Ballieesloe, and Galway with 95 miles of new railway . But though it is highly necessary to be fully aware of the extent of accommodation which is afforded, it is also advisable to see which scheme leaves most undone, and what probability there may be of the remainder being accomplished at a future period. The importance of this consideration, with regard to Ireland, cannot be overlooked. The Commissioners were fully alive to it. They state, Part 111., p. 93 "There can be no doubt that parties might be found ready to undertake certain portions of these lines, which hold out special prospects of advantage ; such, for ex ample, as the first twenty or thirty miles leading out of Dublin, over which all the traffic with other places, near as well as remote, must necessarily pass. But since, ac cording to our calculations, the return of profit on the whole system could not be expected for some time to exceed 31 or 4 per cent., it is manifest that, if the best and most productive portions arc taken possession of un conditionally, there can be no reasonable hope that the remainder will ever be carried into effect. This would so completely frustrate the most important of the ob jects contemplated in issuing this Commissioe, by op posing a bar to the future improvement of the country, that we trust it will not be in any case permitted. It would be even more advisable that no partial line should be sanctioned, until the country should possess, within itself, the means of und n-taking the whole system to its full extent, than at once, and for ever, to obstruct and paralyse all future exerions for its accomplishment by abandoning, to parties having particular and distinct in terests, the monopoly of seine of its most productive de tached portions." We have abundance of evidence in the fact of the pro moters of the Mullingar scheme not believing that their extension from Athlone to Galway would be reinunsra tive, that if it depended on theme railway communication to the westward would be limited to Athlone for some time to come ; they would continue to be satisfied with the profits arising from the traffic with Dublin ; and the oppertunite of extending to the utmost that accommo dation which is now so strongly desired by the district would be lost ; whereas the Dublin and Galway scheme fulfils the recommendation of the Commissioners, inas much as the proprietors of 40 miles of the trunk line nearest Dublin are the supporters of and subscribers to the undertaking—they are, in fact, parties to it—and in alliance with them the promoters of the scheme possess within themselves the means of carrying out a system of intercommunication betweCn Dublin and Galway. It has been objected that in case the Dublin and Galway scheme be carried out, the two great canals, on which so much money, both public and private, has been expended, will be ruined ; and the authority of the Com missioners has been cited to establish that, in those locali ties where navigations have been completed on a larg e scale, and in a superior manner, at the cost of more tha 3,000,0001., it is injurious to the best interests of th e country to promote other speculations having a tendency to injure or destroy them. But, with the principle in volved in securing a vested interest to the proprietors of canals, Parliament has already dealt,' and we are not called upon to express an opinion whether the case be altered by the fact of the funds being derived from public or private sources. After a full consideration of all the circumstances, we are of opinion that a greater extent of accommodation Is offered by the Dublin and Galway than by the Mnl linger scheme : that the former, involving the formation of a fewer nnmber of miles of railway than the latter, may be accomplished at a less cost ; that the former, being supported as it is by the Great S >uthern and Wes tern Company, is likely to be more remunerative in connection with that Company than the latter could be as an independent line ; that there is no particular ad vantage to be derived from the promoters of the latter using the bank of the Royal Canal for the construction of the railway ; and, therefore, we think that there are public reasons for preferring the -Irish Great Western (Dublin and Galway) Railway scheme to the Great Wes ' tern (by Mullingar) Railway scheme. In conclusion, we beg to -draw attention to the pas • sage of the Fifth Report of the Select Committee of last year, in which it is stated, in recommending that reports should be made to Parliament by this department upon railway schemes, " That no such report should be held to prejudice the claims of private persons, the examina tion of wh;ell should a ltow , ther to of the legislature." In submitting to Parliament, in conformity with the recommendations of that Committee, the results at which we have arrived, with a view to the information and as sistance of Parliament, in forming a judgment upon the schemes in question, in so far as our reportmay be avail able for that purpose, we are anxious that it should be distinctly understood that we have arrived at these re sults solely upon public grounds, and to the exclusion o all considerations how far such results might require to be modified by a due regard for private rights and in terests. DALHOUSIE. C. W. PASLEY. G. R. PORTER. D. O'BRIEN. S. LAING. LAW OF DEBTOR AND CREDITOR. A public meeting of the Equitable Debtor and Creditor Association was held yesterday nt the Dis pensary, in Aldersgate-stieet, " to petition Parlia ment, and to secure the passing of an Act whia shall place the giving- of credit on a much better footing than it is now.' The chair was taken at two o'clock by Sir Peter Laurie. The CHAIRMAN said he had great pleasure in presiding over a meeting which had been convened for so laudable a purpose. That was not the first time that he had endeavoured t 3 prevent an interruption to credit, impressed with the feeling that witkout credit there could be no commerce.—(Hear, hear.) He had formerly belonged to a society, which held its meetings in Cockspur-street, and the object of which was to protect the creditor against this kind of legis lation. He had always looked at these humanity Bills with great suspicion. —(Hear, hear.) He would be glad to know how many of the relations of those who had supported the Bill of last session in Parlia ment had benefited by its operation.—(Hear, hear, and laughter.) They all said that their friends at college were very extravagant, and complained that it WJS very cruel to put a man in prison. Was it not also cruel to ruin a tradesman, and, perhaps, in the end, cause him to go to prison ? —(Hear, hear.) If the tradesmen of the metropolis did not stir in this matter, they would presently find a Bill brought in, limiting the sum for which arrest could take place to 401. instead of 201.—(Hear.) He was quibe aware that it was considered an act of cruelty to imprison a debtor. There was, at that time, a maudlin sensibility prevailing which extended to the case of every man who happened to be a rogue. —(Laughter.) —And when they found rick-burners turned into heroes, and so much false sympathy ex isting, it became them, as rational men, to see what could be done to protect themselves. The result of this measure which they sought to have amended was, that debts were contracted in all directions below 191., and the small tradesmen of the country were set at defiance. He knew several instances which afforded this illustration of the effect of this measure. There was a society formed, he was happy to say, meeting in Soho-square, which had for its object, as they had, the protection of honest tradesmen against designing men.—(Hear, hear.) That society already consisted of 1,500 members. Let them co-operate with this society, and organise the tradesmen throughout the metropolis, for the purpose of securing their object. Ile had referred to the maudlin sympathy which had such extensive pre valence. There was no greater proof of its existence than the manner in which culprits were admired. They had all heard of a man named Oxford, confined in Bedlam. He pledged his honour that he had been applied to by ladies of rank, as a governor of that hospital, for a lock of that man's hair.—(Great laugh ter, and a voice, " The name," followed by cries of " No, no.") He had asserted that, to the truth of which he pledged his honour.—(Hear, hear.) —He had not seen the resolutions which were to be pro posed; but he presumed that the object of all present was to protect the honest tradesman—(Hear, hear) — and that being the object, he hoped that the trades men of all parts of the metropolis would unite to se cure its accomplishment. Mr. W. D. SAULL proimsed the first resolution which was as follows : " Ilesolved,—That in the judgment of this meeting legislation has for years past been giving the debtor advantages over the creditor; until ultimately, by this Act of last year, these advantages are made so palpable and unjust, that in moderate and small businesses which form the greater portion of trade, the creditor is entirely at the mercy of the debtor, whilst in large businesses and great transactions, the creditor is much more efficiently protected." • He said the Legislature had for years past been giving the debtor advantages over the creditor, until, at length, by the Act of last year, these advantages were made so palpably unjust that in all small businesses in which credit was chiefly given, the creditor was left entirely at the mercy of the debtor.

REPORT OF THE RAILWAY DEPARTMENT OF THE BOARD OF TRADE ON RAILWAYS PROPOSED TO BE MADE IN IRELAND,. WESTWARD FROM DUBLIN. Railway Department, Board of Trade, Whitehall, 20th March, 1845. The Board constituted by minute of the Committee of the Privy Council for Trade, for the transaction of railway business, having had under consideration schemes deposited with the Railway Department for ex tending railway communication in Ireland into the dis trict west of Dublin, have decided on submitting the following report thereon for the consideration of Par- liament - These schemes are two—viz., The Great Western (Ireland), Dublin to Mul- No. 1, linger and Athlone. Ditto, ditto, Alternative line to Mullingar. Ditto, ditto, Galway Extension from'Athlone. No. 2. Irish Great Western Railway (Dublin to Galway). To avoid confusion we shall call the first the Mullingar scheme, and the second the Dublin and Galway scheme. The Mullingar line is proposed to he carried along the, bank of the Royal Canal from Dublin to Mullingar, there to divide into two branches, one taking a north-west direction to Longford, and the other a south-west direc tion to Athlcne. The promoters of the scheme have lodged plans and sections to enable them to continue their line from Athlone to Galway ; but it is not their intention to do so unless urged by cireumstances, which will be explained hereafter. The plans, sections, and notices belonging to the Dublin and Galway scheme, deposited at the Board of Trade, are for the purpose of enabling the promoters to make a railway from a point about miles from Dublin, on the Great Southern and Western line, to pass through er near the'towns of Edenderry, Phillips town, 'l'ullamore, Athlone, Ballinasloe, and Loughrea, to Galway. A portion ofeibis line will be dropped, how ever, in consequence of arrangements made with the Great Southern and Western Company, which will be presently mentioned in detail. In this, as in our two former reports on projected lines of railway in Ireland, we shall find it neces sary to quote extensively from the second report of the Commissioners appointed to consider and recommend a general system of railways in that country.. When, in 1837, the Commissioners examined into the state of the country now under our consideration, they found it "overspread with small but exceedingly crowded communities, sometimes located in villages, but more frequently in isolated tenements, exclusively com posed of the poorest class of labourers, who, removed from the presence and social or moral influence of a better and more enlightened class, were left, generally, to the coercive power of the law alone to hold them within the bounds of peace and order. No system of constant and remunerative industry was established among them. The cultivation of their patches of land and the labour of providing fuel were their sole em ployments, which, occupying but a comparatively small portion of their time, left them eeposed to all the tempta tions of an idle, reckless, and needy existence." Much change, however, appears to have taken place since that period in the aspect and condition of the dis trict. A visible and steady progress in improvement is said to be apparent ; signs of increasing wealth are manifest ; and the labouring population are necessarily beginning to benefit as the general prosperity advances. Evidence to this effect has been given to us by per sons, among whom are noblemen and gentlemen inti mately acquainted with the localities, conversant with the subject, many of them without a Tingle share in the competing railways, and whose undoubted voracity could be as little questioned as their means of procuring the information they imparted. But in the course of progressive improvement this portion of the Irish people have still to struggle with want of continuous employment, and with inadequate re =iteration for their labour. Agricultural knowledge,th o ugh beginning to be diffused among them , is y et in its infancy, and it needs the stimulus of a more exten sive market than it can now command before the culti vator can obtain such a return for his labour as may induce him to pursue a course of habitual industry and frugal forethought. Steam-vessels have done much for those parts of Ireland whose geographical position per mits of an easy communication with England. From this advantage the district in question is debarred, and railways are now proposed to accomplish that to which steam navigation cannot extend. With reference to this subject the Commissioners ob serve that " A well-arranged system of railways in Ireland would have the effect of continuing and extending throughout the country the benefits which the outports have thus obtained by the introduction of steam-vessels. The subsisting relations of business and commerce would be thereby extended and enlarged, and others formed, opening fresh resources to the industry and enterprise of the trading portion of the community ; while an ob ject of no less consideration would be immediately at tained, in rendering agricultural produce, which may be called the grand staple of this country, at the same time more profitable to the producers, and accessible on easier terms to the principal purchasers and consumers. We have already mentioned that a considerable traffic has been formed since the application of steam-vessels to purposes of commercial transport, in the exportation of fat cattle. The direct benefit, however, derived from this trade, on the part of Ireland, is confined to counties adjacent to the eastern ports, or connected with them by canals ; for the condition of the animals would suffer so much by their being driven any considerable distance, that they are necessarily disposed of in spore neighbour ing market. A railway intersecting the country from Dublin would place the cattle of those rich pastures within reach of Liverpool, Manchester, and Birmingham, thereby insuring to these markets a larger supply and'of a superior quality, while the profits of the Irish feeder would be proportionably enhanced. A similar advan tage would be secured, through the same means, to the growers of corn ; that the prices of produce being thus equalised through the whole country, land would be of nearly equal value to the cultivator at a distance from the metropolis as in its immediate neighbourhood, and hence the inducement to expend capital and labour upon its improvement would be as strong in the ono case as in the other." Further on they add—" .Although a railroad itself, as a mercantile speculation, might not all at once fulfil the sanguine expectations of the projectors, it would still be an invaluable source of general wealth and prosperity." We have been induced to dwell on this topic so long, in consequence of the Commissioners having stated their decided opinion that a line in this direction could not be attempted without ruin to the speculators ; while, at the same time, they are convinced that railway communica tion through the country ought, if possible, to be esta blished. On the point of traffic, therefore, does the question of some line of railway being sanctioned turn ; and yet we have two opposite statements respecting this important matter, besides that which we have quoted from the Commissioners' report. The promoters of the Mullingar scheme show by their traffic tables that between Dublin, Mullingar, Longford, and Athlone, there is sufficient traffic to support a rail way ; but that between-Athlone and Galway there is not sufficient traffic to support a line ; while, on the other hand, the traffic tables of the promoters of the Dublin and Galway scheme go to prove that there is not only sufficient traffic to support a railway between Dublin and Athlone, but also to support the more extensive line be.

He appealed to every tradesman present, whether wholesale or retail, whether it would have been possible for the commerce of this country to be conducted without a facility in giving credit?—(hear, hear.) It was remarkable that the Legislators had taken care to protect themselves in matters of this nature. Rents must be paid before any other kind of debt.—(Hear, hear.) But such conduct was not just to the creditors generally. The small tradesmen who were injured by this Bill were the most numerous and industrious of the trading class ; they were the chief distributors of all the necessaries and comforts of life; they had the greatest share of toil and anxiety. It had been shown to one of the landlords who had been applied to on this subject, that, in one case of debts amount ing, within the last twelve months, to 21,000/., 18,000 consisted of debts under 201.—(Hear, hear.) He was astonished at this fact, not being aware that the proportisn of small debts was anything like so large. Having been in business himself upwards of forty years, he believed that half his debts were below the amount which restricted the power of arrest.— (Cries of " Hear, hear.") He believed that the measure of last session was meant as a feeler, the intention being ultimately to abrogate the law of imprisonment altogether. He deprecated incarceration for debt; but then there was no reason why the creditor should bc deprived of the power of taking his debtor's property. Let the cre ditors be allowed to take what a man had, including books, and he had no wish to see him imprisoned.— (Hear, hear.) It had been admitted by one of the law Lords that there was some great defect in the Act of last session. His own opinion was that it was altogether one-sided. It was passed with feelings of mock humanity, rather than with a proper sense of what was required for the support of trade and com merce ; whereas what was wanted was a law to punish those who acted dishonestly and fraudulently, while, at the same time, proper sympathy was shown for the unfortunate debtor.—(Cheers.) Mr. Cieksineas seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously. Mr. ELLIOTT moved the following resolution : " That the frequent modern alterations in the Insol vency Laws, which have so harassed the commerce of this country, have been unsolicited by the merchants, bankers, and traders, are unsupported by any evidence, arc in direct opposition to the judgment of most practical men, are false in their principles, mischievous in their operation, will continue to cause a large confiscation of the wealth of the middle elmse, and will produce an exteneive deterioration in mercantile morality." Ile said there was a diseased sentimentality abroad which was excited in favour of the idle, the roguish, and the spendthrift, but left the honest, careful and industrious man to take care of himself. Though no advocate for persecuting an unfortunate debtor, he thought the cause of commerce, of honesty, and of public morals required a very different law from.that now in force. The whole legislation respecting in solvency for the last forty years was a disgrace to a eivili,ed country; it was a long series of maudlin and miserable measures. With regard to the Act of last session, no man except Sir James Graham could be found to defend it; it was repudiated by Lords Cottenham, Brougham, and Lyndhurst, neither of whom would acknowledge themselves to be its author. What they wanted was to have the power of bringing the debtor before a competent tribunal by a writ of summons. Under present circumstances, whenever it was a man's interest to be a rogue, he could be one with impunity.—(Hear, hear.) The great masa of insolvent debtors were not persons who had become so through misfortune; persons who took their plea sure instead of minding their business, who kept no accounts, who lived at the rate of 1,0001. a year, when their income was 300/. ; and who gambled, if not with dice, yet in tea, pepper, hope and other articles. The CHAIRMAN-1n railway shares ? (Laughter.) Mr. ELLIOTT—Yes , zind,in railway shares. Insol, vency was a catchingdiseaskand a man was never more likely to do a dirty act himself than when he had been cheated by another.—(Hear.) At this period of the meeting, Sir Peter Laurie was compelled by another engagement to leave the chair, which he did after giving his name for 101. lbs. towards the object of the meeting. Mr. W. D. Sattll was chosen as his successor. The resolution, after a short discussion, was passel unanimously. Mr. ISl•Coxsion proposed the last resolution, which was as follows : Resolved--That this meetine , pledges itself to support the Equitable D. btor and Creditor Association to its utmost in an application to Parliament, by petition and Bill, to secure the representation of the error gs of trades men, and the remedies which their wrongs require." „ He said the Association was based upon two principles, from it could not be driven : one was, that the creditor had a right to the payment of a debt; tht tnat it tnereThva.l or property to psy it, he had a right to know why that was the case.— (Hear.) Upon those principles they must base their operations, and he felt that there could be no doubt_of their success. Mr. F. 13AILEY seconded the resolution, whieh was carried unanimously; and a vote of thanks having been given to the Chairman, the meeting dispersed. GENERAL NAPIER IN GUERNSEY. (From the Jersey Gazette.) The true key whereby to unlock the hidden mys, teries of Normanism is to be found in this Channel Island axiom—" All poor and sinful persons area spe cies of feral natural, to bellunted down at the will and pleasure of any man or boy that happens to be clothed in a little brief authority." It is a sufficient reason, according to this rule of misrule, that a 04 2 - son is helpless that he should be trampled upon ; that he is at the world's mercy that he should be treated mercilessly. This is a strange code, sounds rudely upon ears accustomed to hear that the safeguards of law were principally intended to protect the help less from the contempts of the powerful; to award to crime only such a due measure of punishment as may* protect society from danger. A man who can give a cheque for a thousand pounds has little need of the law as a defensive safeguard. The rich man has at his command innumerable ministers who will peril soul and body to protect him for a consideration. The lowly have no such refuge, and if tja portals of the temple of justice be closed to them I..tie rude hands of subordinate officials, whence are they to expect redress? From the thron nly, or froth the repre sentative of the throne. T an eternal truth , daily o , becoming more and more aniftrite . ,.. , The case of Maria Hatch, Ala poor wretched Eng. lish girl, which, as we iriermerbur readers on Merl, day evening last, had been referred to the Royal Court of Guernl,f; by tie-Governor oft Island, General Napierrts a striking. illustration of the truth of what we VAT advanced. She was seized after her confinement of a son-born child, by mere policemen —no warrant issued justifying such violence, and im prisoned-in a' hospital previous to being sent to Eng land—she, neither solicitieff.alms, nor being in a state which rendered it probable that she might become chargeable -to an Island which owes all of wealth and privilege it pos sesses to the generosity and favour of that poor wretched girl's countrymen. General Napier insisted upon inquiry into this gross outrage upon the per sonal liberty of one of the Queen's subjects, who, whatever her sins and misfortunes, however she_ be poor and destitute, is as much entitled to be protected against brutal violence as the chastest matron whose brows arc encircled by a coronet. The Royal Court, after long deliberation, at last decided that the constables were not to blame, but there existed no sufficient reason at present to send her to her pa rish. Was ever judgment more absurdly contradictory than this ? The complaint is that the girl is 'died and imprisoned, in order to be sent out of the Island —the magistrates decide that there was no justifying reason for imprisoning or sending her out of the Is land, but those who thus acted without justifying cause are not to blame !! The Solomonsl Virbstia privilege to be allowed to elect such people.
