Testerslay, at half paq twelve, a meeting of int: a bit aets, owner , ,f, and ether eersons interested in, residences, wharves, aed othei• paspoley adjaceot to, and lip the vicinity of, that portion of the IlestenCe Canal banding the Regent's park, was held at the York and Albany Tavern, Gloucester gate, Regent's-Park, "to consider and determine," as the ad vertieernent set forth, " upen the most effective and decided opp o sition to ttn. ale ye railway recently plop° ed to be sub stitilted for the ednel." The meeting. a very full and respectable one, was pre sided over by Mr. R. Cumberland. The advertisement calling the meeting, with the pro spectus of the Regent's Canal Railway Company, were then real. Mr. Dnyrox, the secretary of the weetino, said the bush ness being fully set forth in the adverti-jteent, he should be happy to hear ally observations on the basiness advanced by the gentleman who were present. The CIIAIRMAN intimated thas he would be very glad to hear the sentiments of the meeting. It appeared Mont the prospectus of the Company that the idea of compensation to the residents on the banks of the canal had not been con sidered, and hence he thought it was necessary they should take meesores to protect their interests. It was the usual couree fur railway companies in making aline to grant compensation, but in the present instance there appeared to be no intention of such being done. Mr. STANLEY took the liberty of saying a few words, as one of the oldest residents in the ne'glinourhood. The question for the meeting to consider was not so much an opro , ition to the constructioo of a fine of railway, as one of compensation to themselves. They might depend upon it, that if the Government and the Commissioners of Woods and Forests decided in favour of the construction of the line, their opposition would go for nothing; but if those parties acted otherwise, then their objections would be alto gether useless. He considered, therefore, they should confine themselves entirely to the damage that was likely to be done to their own property. Park Village,. where he resided, was one of the places that was likely to sutler the most from the construction of the railway. Still, he was against anything in the shape of a general opposition to the line. lie, for one, was of opinion that the railway, in many respects, would be.a benefit to the neighbourhood. It would, he believed, enable them to be supplied with coals from the Midland Counties at a much cheaper rate than they could be abtained from the port of London. Besides, by the line, and the construction of a central terminus, uty would get rid of the greatest nuisance at present in the locality, the Camden station. They should, therefore, consider the ques tion of compensation alone. After a pause, Mr. STANLEY said that a resolution had just been put into his hand which he considered quite in agreement with the views he had expressed; he would there fore propwe it. It was, " That this meeting having consi dered the project of converting the Regent's-canal into a railway, and the effect of that pr jt ct, if carried into execution upon the various houses, wharves, buildings, and premises, commercial and orn . miental, along its hanks, is of opinion that no meature could be mere prejudicial to the various in terests of owner, lessee, and occapier than the c. aversion of the present waterway into a railway." The Motion being seconded, Mr. Grunessnow wished to keow if any communiestion had been made to the others of . the Pntineay Company to elicit their sentiments oa the stin:e.et of compensation. If so, he should be very glad to hear the result. M. DENTON intimated that such a course bad not yet been taken. Mr. GREENtiow said, if there - was no satisfactory prospect of justice being done the proprietors, he would recommend each tenant under the Crown to write to the Commissioners of Woods and Forests. It appeared to him quite certain that if the Crown wan against. the conversi In it could of take place, a Rill could not be introduced into Bar as liament without its consent. It was therefore one of the cheapest, anti he believed one of the west effect •al ways of opposing the project, namely, the writing individually, and protesting against it to the Commissioners of Woods and Forests. Mr. DANIEL, churchwarden of the parish of St. Maryle bone, said lie had attended the present meeting simply to watch the proceedings. He might state that the parish had an extensive dock on the conal, which the proposed railway would seriously injure. Its - construction in this respect would be a loss to the parish of 1,2001. yearly. After some farther discussion, Mr. YATES wished to give his opinion against the course recommended, as he believed the conversion of the canal into a railway would be a great benefit to the locality. An objection was here taken to Mr. Yates being heard, on the ground that he was not a resident in the locality, and the question was put to the meeting, when, on a show of hands, it was decided by a large majority that he should be allowed to proceed. Mr. YATES contended that no injury would be done to their property by the construction of the railway. He therefore thought they were taking a very impolitic course. A-sum - ing, however, that damage would be done, he considered they should have first consulted with the Directors, instead of flying in the face, as they were proposing, of a powerful body like the railway company. He did not agree with Mr. Daniel that the railway would cause a loss of 1,2001. a year to the parish of Marylebone, but rather, he was of opinion, it would be 1,200/n gain. The railway would be a great benefit, and therefore lie proposed as an amendment that a deputation of f ur or six persons, from the present meeting, be appointed to meet the Directors of the Railway Company, to dixtess the question of compensation. Mr. lIEYWOOD considered such a course most advisable, and would therefore second the amendment. The amendment on being put was negatived by a large majority, and the original resolution carried, with but four dissentie nts. After a vote of censure on the proprietors of the Canal for agreeing to sell it to the Railway Company, without consult ing the feelings and interests of the inhabitants on its banks, and the appointment of a committee to carry out.the objects set forth in the resolution=, the meeting separated.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1845. RA *IWA % IN ; ELLIGEN CE. TONBRIDGE AND RYE HARBOUR, AND LONDON AND SOUTH WEALD OF 'KENT, nn Monday evening an important meeting of landowners and re , iclent gentry of South Kent t0.. , k place in the market room ,-f the Bull Inn, C;a.tliriolc, for the purpose of con sidering fle sul t ject c.f railway cummunicatiuns projected through that. part of the country - . The meeting was an exceedingly crowded one, and among't the gentlemen present locally interested were Lord Viscount Beresh,rd, Cawain King, R.N., Alexander Janies Beresrord Hope, Esq., M.P., Thomas Law Hodges, Esq., Major Curteis, Captain 3loneypenny, Thomas Twisden Hodges, Dq., Captain Tweedle, Edward Poynder, Esq, Sackville Phelps, Esq , Thomas Walton Roberts, Esq. , Major Hurst. George French, jun., Esq., &c. THOMAS LAW HonGEs, Esq., was called to the chair. He said it would be remembered that two or three weeks back a meeting on the important subject of railway communication between Rye, Hastings, Tonbridgr, and other places of con s-quence in the southern weald of Kent had been held, and that in comequence of the plans submitted, and the destruc tion of valuable property which they involved, the meeting had been adjourned in order to give the gentlemen employed sufficient time to make a more perfect survey of country through which it was contemplated these railways should be car; ied out. Mr. GmEs (the engineer) said, since the last meeting he had had levels taken over the whale country, with the view of ascertaining the best line which could be adopted between Rye, Hastings, and Tunbridge, passing through or near Cranbrook. From Paddock-wood, at which point it was proposed to join the South Eastern Railway up to Winchet hill on the south-western side of Cranbrook, he had found the levels very good and easy, but front Winchet-hill to Goddard's-green, the rise of the country was found to be extreme; such as to require an incline of railway to be made at a gradient of at least 1 in 100. A railway could not be accomplished through this part at a gradient flatter than that he had mentioned ; and it also involved the necessity of a deep cutting of from 40 to 60 feet. After having passed through this point at the depth he had mentioned, the line would arrive at Minever, and get down to Mill-street Mill by a similar gradient to that by which they came from Winchet-hill to Goddard's-green—n mely, lin 100. Now it was not only passenger traffic, but heavy goods traffic which would pass on this line, and therefore he need not impress upon the meeting the necessity of their having a line as level as possible. This line he (Mr. Giles) must admit was the most direct line which could be adopted from Paddock-wood towards Rye, as it was, if not entirely, next to the straight line. Although this was the case, he (Mr. Giles) had felt it his duty to survey another line, which, although not so straight as the line he dtad just mentioned, had other advantages of a better level—(Hear) — and under all the circumstances, be felt it his duty to recom mend the adoption of the latter line to any body of gentle men who proposed to carry a railway between Paddock-wood and Rye, rid Cranbrook.—( Hear.) The CHAIRMAN, addressing Mr. Kirkman, one of the de putation from the Direct London and South Weald of Kent, Tunbridge. Romney, Folkestone, Rye, and Hastings Rail way, inquired of that gentleman whether the company he represented had amalg,mated with the gentlemen represent ing the Toabridge aid Rye Harbour Direct Railway? Mr. KIRKMAN said as tar es the line from Cranbrook to Packt-,ek-wood. :bey 'IV amalgamated, but not with the pro : posLo i lio heyund Cranbrook in the direction of Rye. Mr. LAMB thought it tu ,, st thot a plan should be devised for reaching H:o ings, by passing through the Bother level, then throuJi Telshant, which was also a level, and thei;ce through the Tillingdon level, and so on to Rye This plan would be the means or opening Hastings to Maid stone, and the whole of Central Kent. Captain MONTGOMERY wished to know bow Mr. Giles in tended to carry the railway nn to Rye harbour? Mr. GILLS said he proposed to carry it through the town of Rye on the north• east, and to the north of the old harbour. 711 ajOr CURTEIS was desirous of knowing the exact route by which it was proposed to get to Rye, for if it came through his lancl, or that way which was likely to be detri menta: tip the property throughout the line, lie should op p• se it, and there were several other landlords ready to do the sang, Mr. WILSON said the question was whether the Hastings I traffic woukl not be of paramount importance, as it would be the most dire.'t means of affording communication with that most important town and Dungeness. Captain TWEEDIE said it was the understanding with re spect to the proposed lines, that any injury to _private pro perly should be avoided as much as possible. He wished to know if that pledge was adherei to by the plan laid down? Mr. GILES said it was. The line was intended to pass in a direct course from Tonbridge via Paddock Viro,,d, and from the atter place to the port of Rye, passing through Brench ley, Horsmonden, Goudhurst, Cranbrook, Benenden, Hawk hunt, Sandhurst, Rolvenden, Newenden, Northian, Beckley, Peasemarsh, lden, Ployden, and Guildford, to the town and harbour (f Rve.—(Hear.) The Hen. Capt. KING said—After the useful statements which had been made, there coukl he no doubt of the great benefit which would result from the establishment of railways in that part of the country such as those proposed, and he felt great pleasure in moving "That a railway from Ton bridge via Paddock-wood, to the town and port of Rye, passing through or near the parishes f Brenchley, Horsmon den, Goudhurst, Cranbrook, Berenden, Hawkhurst, Sand hurst, Rolver.den. Newenden, Northian, Beckley, Pease marsh, Iden, Ployden, and Guildford, is most desirable, and the meeting is determined to give such a line their cordial support." Captain MONEYPENNY seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously. Mr. BERESFORD HOPE, M.P., moved that the line as explained by Mr. Giles, passing to the north-east side of the town of Cranbrook, is the best line to be adopted. Mr. TUKE having seconded the resolution, Mr. JENNINGS moved, as an amendment, "That it is im portant in bringing the intended line before Parliament, to propose a line to Hastings in connexion with the proposed line-to:Rye, with a view to such line to Hastings being car tied into effect or net, as may hereafter appear expedient with re 6 rence to any other line likely to be adopted to Hastings." Considerable discussion ensued: ultimately the amendment was withdrawn, and the motion carried with but two dissen tients. Lord BERESFORD having been called on to preside, a vote of thanks was passed to Mr. Law Hodges for his conduct in the chair, and the meeting separated. • GREAT EASTERN AN L WESTERN RAILWAY. A few days since a meeting of the inhabitants of Bryn mawr, Nantvglo, and other towns in South Wales, took place at the Griffin Inn, for the purpose of expressing their approval of the Great Eastern and Western line, which pro posed to give the shortest transit to the great markets of Liverpool, Manchester, and Birmingham ; and whose en gineers, contrary t 9 the published opinions of the engineers connected with other companies, had demonstrated the prac ticability of a railway line between Merthyr and Abergavenny, accommodating their several extensive works, and connect ing them with the agricultural districts. Mr. KEINIIAW, of Bryn.oawr. moved the first res&ution, "Tint Brynmawr and it , nri.:;l - oiourhoitt would be much behel'ed by having the line passing so close to them, and giving them each 'acidly of communication with important places." Mr. PARRY, of Beaufort, said, that as fir as regirded the trading interests of Brynmawr and the thickly-populated districts around, the line they were met to consider was de cidedly favourable; no other projected line came near them. It was then their interest and duty to support the Great Eastern and Western line. He thought the engineering dif ticulti, s of the road were great, but the engineers employed by the Great Eastern and Western Company had pubiicly declared the line practicable, in opposition to the opiliion of those connected with rival lines. The •Gieat Eastern and Western Co:npany took their line between Abergavtnny and - Merthyr, through districts containing a pupulation of at least 120,000 souls. Commencing at Llaiielly, they passed to Brynmawr, Nantyglo, Coalbrook Vale ' ' Cwut Celyn Blaina, Ebbw Yale, Beaufort, Rhyniney, the Lute Works, Dowlais, and Merthyr Tvdvil. This part of the line, he understood, would be 20 mites of trunk and 12 of branches, 32 miles in all, connecting the largest mineral Works in the world with the agricultnrA districts. Whatever company_ held forth such adva:itages deserved the public support. He was sure such a line would pay well from its conveyance of minerals, passengers, nnd agricultural produce. The resolution was put and carried unanimously. Mr. W. UNDERwOOD, in moving the second resolution, said it was most importmit that they should have such a line as that projected by the Great Eastern and Western Company. It was the hest yet proposed to give them a direct communication with the northern and eastern parts of England. Mr. THOMAS DAVIES, in seconding the resolution, said he considered a line between Abergavenny and Merthyr one of absolute nece,sity to the trading interests in the various dis tricts through which it would pass, and he thought it the duty of every person interested in such trade to support the Great Eastern and Western scheme. The CITAIRMAN said the line whose merits they were met to consider would afford them every possible advantage that could arise from a direct communication with the great ma nufacturing and commercial towns. It would afford also a shorter means of travelling to London than their present mode, ti;c2 Newport, and every one, he thought, would join with him in appreciating the advantages of having goods by land. He had no doubt the traffic on the line would be im mense. The resolution was carried unanimously. The third resolution was proposed by Mr. Thomas Davies, of Brynmawr, and seconded by Mr. Mr. E. J. Williams, and, like the preceding ones, it waa passed unanimously. GREAT WELSH CENTRAL RAILWAY. On Monday a meeting of the Managing Committee of this Company tea place at their offices in Clement's-lane, Mr. Ellis, M.P. for Leicester, in the chair. The principal busi ness which came before the meeting was the report of Mr. Galloway, the engineer. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, said he had every reason to believe that the report would be most satisfactory to the great body of the shareholders, as well as to every one interested in the pros perity of Wales, or the well-being of the kingdom at large. The reports which they continued daily to receive from the principality afforded the directors in London a full as surance that the inhabitants of the district through which the railway was intended to pass were most cordial in their support of this great undertaking; that many of them quitted their harvest work in order to assist the surveyors ; and it appeared to be equally certain that the landowners along the line were quite as favourable as their tenants to this important na tional work. It was with much pleasure he perceived that the names of several gentlemen connected with the prin cipality had been added to the provisional committee. Amongst the most prominent objects of the Company was that of affording the means of transit for goods and pa s sengers between Liverpool and Swansea. At present vessds are often five r six weeks in passing from the Bristol Channel to Liverpool—a fortnight was rather a short passage ; w h erea s by, the intended railway ten hours would suffice for the traustniss7on of any amount of goods from either of those important ports to the other, and thus a vast saving would be effected in the expenses of shipping, the wages of seamen, and the cost of marine insnrance. The DEPUTY-CHAIRMAN observed that there was not one project of the many. now afloat which had so signally earned for itself the tills of .‘ .irect" as the " Great Welsh Central Railway ;" and when the mountainous nature of the contitry was considered, it appeared marvellous that a direct and practicable line could have been traced. Fortunately that object had been accomplished in a manner which even exceeded their most sanguine hopes. It was impos sible to lOok at the map, or take into view the statistics of such places as those between which it would open an inter course without feeling that that must be one of the greatest werl:s in the United Kingdom which facilitated the traffic of ;sets places is AtllleileSter, Leeds, Sheffield, Birmingham, Liverpool, the mineral districts of South Wales, and all the important ports of the principality and of England. The report of the engineer was then ree. It stated that the line from Liverp , •ol to Sovons•a would measure about 150 ini;es, the branehts to Warrington and Neath being I 1; miles ailditional. It would j , ,in the Liverpool and or at 134ckhow-liall ; then proceed by Overton, Oswe,. - -try, Wa,hpoz , l, Newtown, to the Neath line, and on ward to Swansea, t lir!ugh R hyade , - ' l.ltnphangel, Ll an gammca-ch, Ll ndulas, Llywel, Cape! Celwyn, Ystralggnlais, and Clybdydfechan. He described the engineering diffi culties as being of very limited extent, and the tunnelling as very unimportant, only three-guar ers of a mile in length; that the gradients were easy, and the deviations from a direct course much less than is to be found in the generality of long lines. The report was then received, and the meeting broke up. HALIFAX AND QUEBEC. At a meeting held in favour of this line, which-is to con nect Halifax and Quebec, to settle entants of land upon the line, and to make branches to St. John, Frederickton, and other places, Mr John Joseph Sheene in the chair; Mr. WILLIAM BRIDGES, the secretary and projector of the line, read the report of the Committee, from which it appeared that a memorial drawn up by Sir Richard Brown and Mr. Bridges, was addressed to the Prime Minister, urging on the consideration of Government the great benefits likely to accrue from the enterprise; that upon an inter view with Lord Stanley, his Lordship referred the deputa tion to the local governments, but • expressed. an opinion that, in the event of local support being secured, the Government would not refuse their sanction to the under taking. Memorials were addressed to Lord Metcalfe, Lord Falkland, and Sir William Colebrook, the governors of the respective provinces of Canada, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick, of similar tenor to that submitted to Sir Robert Peel, and cotrespondence was entered into, the result of which was a cordial expression of approval, and promises of sup port from Lord Falkland and Sir William Colebrook, who had also addressed Lord Stanley in recommendation of the enterprise, from the Honourable Mr. Almor, a member of the Executive Council and President of the Bank of Nova Scotia, Dr. Gesner, of Cornwallis, and various others of character and influence in British North America, and that maps • and other engineering information had been transmitted to the colony. That Mr. G. R. Young, a member of the Legislature of Nova Scotia, had been applied to, and had used his influence to ascertain the feeling of merchants in the city connected with the Canadas relative to the project, and had addressed letters by the last mail to various correspondents in the colonies, with the view of eliciting public expressions of opinion, and a guarantee of local monetary support, if ap proved of by the public_ intelligence. That Captain Moorsorn, who had formerly made extensive surveys for the Government in the North American territory, had also assisted the promoters with much valuable information, had furnished an estimate of the probable cost and returns, and had consented, in conjunction with Mr. Valentine, to be the principal engineer. That Mr. Street had been in negotiation with various persons in New Brunswick, who were desirous to constitute a company to cons ruct a railway from St. John to the Grand Falls, to connect with the trunk line to Quebec ; that extensive local and Government patronage had been secured to the undertaking, and that no less than 100,0007. , of stock would be locally subscribed for that portion ; and that the Legislature of New Brunswick, in their opinion, are disposed tir give a b , nus of 10,0001. to 15,0004 a year for five years. Resolutiens proposed and supported by Messrs. Sam . bert, Hoare, Whitney, Moorsom, supported and others, were carried - unanimously for proszeuting the recommendations contained in the report. PROGRESS OF NEW RAILWAYS. BERIZS AND HANTS RAILWAY.—This line, which is to connect the Great Western and South-Western Railways, iia;beenl;idQ — under the superintendence of the Coin pany's engineer, Mr. Beecham. In length it is upwards of thirty-nine miles, branching off from the Great Western Railway near Reading. passing adjacent to the towns of New bury, Hungerford, to near the station of the South-Western Railway at Basingstoke. The purchase of land is nearly completed, and in every quarter operations are going on rapidly. The directors of the Great Western hive let the while of the works (between Hanged( eel and Basingstoke) to responsible and most experienced contractors, whose work. men are engaged in shaft working. in order to ascertain the nature of the soil to be worked through. SHEFFIELD AND MANCHESTER RAILWAY.—The works upon this line of railway are for the most part corn' leted. and the rails laid ; the tunnel, however, remains unfinished, but nearly 2,000 werkmen are engaged, fixing the masenary. PRESTON AND WYRE BRANCH RAILWAYS—The report by the engineer, Mr. Bidder, as to the state of the works of the Preston and Wyre Branch Railway and the Black pool, Lytham, and Lytham Docks is as follows :—The Ly tham line, the length of which is four miles and eix fur longs, I fully expect, should the weather keep favourable, will be completed in about three weeks. There is no work of any magnitude on this railway; the quantity of excava tion is 100,000 cubic yards. The highest embankment is eleven feet, and the deepest cutting twenty-seven feet. Along the line there are three timber bridges, also one of stone, and another constructed of bricks. The station is also fast approaching completion. The Blackpool line will be com menced as soon as the harvest is over, and we are in hopes it will ha accomplished for traffic by the Ist of March next. Visitors can then visit their favourite watering-places from Leeds, Manchester, and all intermediate stations, without leaving their carriages, and in a very short space of time. We are laying down the electric telegraph on this line, and have every reason to believe that early in the Spring there will be a communication throughout the lines from Fleet wood, a distance of two hundred and forty miles ; and as our packets do not exceed ten hours in their voyage to Belfast, a message to London from Belfast will be made in a few mi nutes more of that time. The capital is 50,090/. ASHTON BRANCH RAILWAY.—The works connected with the Ashton, Stalybridge. and Liverpool Junction are ad-; vanced considerably, and already branch into the Sheffield and Manchester line. The electric telegraph is likewise being laid down on this undertaking. LANCASTER DEVIATION.—The Lancaster Deviation of the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway, which is three miles in length, will, when finished, connect the two with the Carlisle and Newcastle Railway. The most important work on the line is the Lime Viaduct. This consists of three timber arches, of 120 feet span, over the river Eden, and seven smaller land arches in masonry. The land piers and the river abutments are well advanced, all these piers hay • ing been founded nearly twenty feet below the surface of the ground, and are now built about eight feet above the sur face. There are five other bridges in progress in other parts of the line, and the earth-works are commenced at several points. OXFORD AND RUGBY.—The arrangements for the con struction of the Oxford and Rugby, in length fifty miles and a half, are in a very advanced state. The preliminary ope rations for surveying, sectioning, shaft-sinking, and staking out are complete. The capital, according to the parliamentary return, is 600,0001. BRIGHTON, LEWES, AND HASTINGS RAILWAY.—This line is progressing rapidly, particularly between Willingdon and St. Leonard's, where the rails are laid for a considerable dis tance, over which a locomotive is running to convey ballast trains. There are between the above-mentioned places no fever than eleven embankments, the mast important of which are the following : Povensev-marsh extends three miles and a half in length, for the formation of which it re quires 50,000 cubic yards of earthwork ; and the quantity already removed amounts to upwards of 30,000; Stonecross embankme- t, as also the Marine Cottages, the Bulace- Glynde Gap, the Chinting, and Redditch, average from 19 to 23 feet in height. The cuttings in that particular part are almost as numerous. There are ten cuttings, called the Bulverhithe, Galley-hill, Bexhill, Fatland, 'White Little ' Common, Louden, Westham, Redditch, and the Stonecros s, The most laborious are the ulverhithe, the Galley-hill, and the Stonecross cuttings • the latter is 40 feet in depth, and the quantity of earthwork alre =di , removed is 54 000 cubic yards. The quantity required to be excavated before corn- pleted is 106,000. There are several bridges completed; among them may be enumerated the Iliilsham and East bourne turnpike-roads, which pass under the railway; the span of the arch is 35 feet. The works exhibit great solidity, and in their construction show much judgment on the part of Mr. Kirby, the resident engineer. The IListings, Rye, &c., Railway, an extension line to the above, for which au Act. of Parliament was obtained last session, is not y et com menced. The termini are to be at Hastings a nd at Ashford. LANCASTER AND CARLISLE RAILWAY.—The important works on this line of railway, under the superintendence of Mr. Errington, the engineer, are fast completing. The lengthy embankment near Carlisle is formed, and a loco motive is employed on it. Eamount bridge and Lowther bridge are finished. They have a noble appearance. Re specting the viaduct at Docker Gatthil and the embankment at Clifton, its progress is mast favourable. The engineer's attention is now directed in removing the ponderous mass of stone in various parts of the line by forcing gunpowder. This operation is excessively tedious. NEWPORT AND PONTYPOOL RAILWAY.—This line, which will be thirteen miles in length, with termini at Pontypool and at Newport, has been commenced. Working surveys are in progress, and the line is being set out preparatory to letting contracts for works. Trial pits have been sunk to as certain the nature of the cuttings. The cuttings and em bankments will not be any great obstacle—the country being undulating, they are consequently frequent, but of no great Night. They vary from forty feet in height and under. One tunnel is proposed, which will not exceed 100 yards in length. Through the town of Pontypool the railway will occupy the site of a canal, which will shortly be drained for that pur pose. The capital of the Company, is 119,0001. Mr. Thomas E. March, the engineer, has the construction of the under taking. - - On Friday. at a meeting of the merchants, traders, and in habitants aLi v erpoal, resolutions were passed in favour of the Newry and Carlingford Railway, as calculated to pro mote commercial intercourse between Liverpool and the north-west and north-east of Ireland. Surveyors and their assistants are busy on the South Wales line, prior' to the issuing of contracts. The borings fur the foundation of the bridge at Chepstow have been com menced. Operations are being commenced upon .a large scale for the construction of the proposed high level bridge over the Tyne, in connection with the. Newcastle and Berwick Rail way. The borings in the bed of the river for the pier foundations have been commenced as a preliminary requisite. Melton is said to be besieged with surveyors, and fears are entertained that, should one-half of the proposed projects be carried out, Leicester will entirely lose its prestige for hunting sports. A direct line, shortening the existing route by five miles, is projected between Darlington and Hartlepool. The progress of the works on the Chester and Holyhead is said to have had a remarkable effect on the number of applicants for parochial relief in the Comray, Bangor, and Beaumaris Poor-law unions. The works on the Middlesborough and Redcar, a line to connect those places with the north and south, have been commenced, and the road is expected to be opened in three or four months. A woodcock was shot in the parish of Halwell, near Totness, on Tuesday, the 7th inst.—Western Times. SMUGGLING BY A PASSENGER. — A day or two since, in the course of the usual examination being made of the baggage and effects of the passengers by the Antwerp steamer, the revenue officers on duty discovered that a port manteau or other package belonging to a foreigner, and which was stated to contain nothing but old wearing apparel, was sadly deficient of contents in proportion to its size, and on further examination it was found that the pack age contained a false bottom, ingeniously contrived, with between seven or eight pounds of cigars, or manufactured to bacco, concealed therein. The package was immediately seized and- the matter represented to the authorities. Had the cigars been merely placed among the wearing apparel, or even underneath it, they would of course have been delivered to the party on payment of the proper duties; but it being considervd that the fact of their being adroitly concealed under a false bottom fitted into a box afforded a complete proof of an evident intention of avoiding the payment of the proper duties, the package, with the whole of : the con tents, hJ been ordered to be conewcated.

DUTCH MAIL - THE HAGUE, Oct. 15.—We have accounts from Copen hagen of the 3d of this month, which state that the disease in the potatoes is spreading more and more in Denmark, as in Funen, Lolland, Falster, and likewise Sealand, especially in Amak, near Copenhagen. It has likewise appeared in the Durhie. It is stated that the disease is beginning to show itself in Sweden, and as the crops, particularly of the later kinds, are more backward than in the Netherlands, it is feared that the disease may sp7ead wider. It will therefore be advisable to take measures in the discharging of cargoes from that country to ascertain the quality of the potatoes. Information from Genoa of the 3d of October announces that very large consignments of Piedmontese wheat and other provisions are preparing in the ports, destined for the Netherlands. THE HAGUE, OcT. 16.—IIer Majesty the Queen returned to the Hague yesterday. The J,lva paprs to the sth of July have been received. BaTavet,Ju 1.-T, earls the tnd of' May the Governor of Macassar was infortned that pirates were assembled near Saleyer, ar.d it W 55 reperted that they were collecting a eon siderche force, with the intention of attacking Boneratta. His Majesty's brig the Haai, commanded by Lieutenant Hoar, was dispatcbcd to the place where the pirates were supposed to he, and a detachment of twenty-five soldiers sent oa board. It appeared that the reports were well founded; the commander of the llaai succeeded in surprising eight pirate vessels which lay under the island of Kalaten, and to destroy most of them. The ordinary session of the States-General will be opened on Monday, Oct. 20, by his Majesty in person.

If the Government should determine at the same lime that every one shall be bound in payment f his contributions to have one-third in paper, as in Ger many, it would be a great advantage, now that gold and silver are so high—Dutch Papers, Oct. 18.

The only transactions which have transpired privately, worth reporting, consist of some large parcels of crushed (amouning to about 200 tons); which have been sold at 35s to 35s 6(1, being a further reduc tion of is to 2s. The quantity of British Plantation landed last week at the East and West India Docks was 229 hhds 90 tierces 339 barrels, and there were taken for home consumption 1,807 hhds 195 tierces 323 barrels. The stock in the same places is 16,800 hlids 2,170 tierces 3,165 barrels. COFFEE.-4,190 bags 30 casks Ceylon (about one-half British Plantation kinds), and 250 bales Mocha, offered by auction. The better sorts of the British 'Plan tation kind of Ceylon sold readily at 54s to 70s for fine ord to mid colory quality, being fully former rates; the remainder was chiefly taken in at 45s to 50s for common mixed good ord to fine ord, which are about previous prices. Nearly all the Mocha was likewise taken in chiefly at 56s to 58s for mid clean garbled, RUM.—The quantity landed last week at the East and West India Docks was 1,279 puns 44 h'ds, and there were taken for home consumption 282 puns 28 hhds, and exported 55 _puns.

SUGAIt.—To-day importers of British Plantation Sugar insisted upon former prices for all descriptions, but there was only a limited business transacted. At auction 100 hhds of Barbadoes sold at the full worth.

EAST INDIA.—This afternoon four parcels of Bengal Sugar, amounting to 8,171 bags, were submitted to public compe tition ; the whole found purchasers. Of Ceylon 100 casks were sold. Madras is wanted, and at auction 203 bags were sold at full rates. lota - AG:v.—Any material decline in the value of Foreign Sugar is still prevented by holders continuing to supply the market sparingly; but the demand is still falling off for all descriptions, and stocks are increasing. The business trans acted privately in yellow Havannah has been extremely limited, although there aresellersat afurther decline in prices. REFINED.—To-day several parcels of Refined goods were taken by the home trade, in consequence of 64s being ac cepted fur brawn, and 65s per cwt for standard lumps. The value of bonded crushed Sugar is 35s per cwt, but at which a fair business has been done in the best quality. MoLAssEs.—West India is wanted, and full prices are offered, but business has been checked by the stock being principally in second hands. The quantity here is much less than it was last year. Bengal Treacle is wanted, and tine fetched 20s per cwt. COFFEF.—This afternoon there was little desire shown to purchase Ceylon Coffee, and 1,660 bags at auction were only in part sold at rather lower rates for Native, good ordinary selling at 46s to 475, very good ordinary 50s, black 8s to 17s, bold Triage 40s. The Plantation barely sustained Os th 6d e former value, fine o rdinary pale went at 603 to G, good ordinary g rey 55s 6d to 575, pea berry 66s to 68s 6d, sea damaged of the various sorts went at 24s to 635, country n cla 'ed 475. The inarkzt is quiet for Mocha, and 35 bales at public sale were taken in, middling brownish at 565, bold Triage 43e to 45e 1 and inferior 4/06, 100 bags of I
