One portion of this railway will diverge from the present line of the North Union Railway at or near Farrington, and by forming a eornmantcation with the Blackburn and Preston Railway there, will accommodate the traffic both of Preston and Blackburn, and the places beyond. From Farrington it will proceed by Ormskirk, and thence past Kirby (where it will form a junction with the Liver pool and Bury Railway), and terminate at the intended new sta tion of the Grand Junction Railway Company at Edge-hill, Liver pool, from whence there will be access to the north and south docks, as- well as to the Lime-street station in that town. This portion of the main line Will be twenty-four Miles in length, and will bring Liverpool• within twenty-seven miles of Preston, and thirty-three miles cf Blackburn. Another portion ef the under taking will consist of a trunk line from Southport, passing St. John's, In the village of Barscough, near which it will intersect and form a junction with the line from Farrington to Liverpool, and proceed thence through the Douglas Valley to Wigan, where it will avail itself of the North Union station in passing through the town, pro ceeding thence by Hindley, Atherton, Tyldeslay, Ellenbrook, and Worsley, it will form a junction with the Liverpool and Manchester Railway near Eccles, and with the Manchester, Bolton, and Bury Railway in Pendleton. By means of a junction with the Bolton and Leigh RILL way at Atherton, the advantages of this line will be extended to the town of Leigh. The length of this trunk will be about twenty-eight miles of new line, bring , ng Southport within thirty-three miles of Manchester, sixteen-and-a-half of Wigan, and twenty-six of Bolton, and reduc ing the time occupied in the journey between Southport and Man chester from four hours to little more than one, and between that favourite watering-place and other manufacturing districts 14 like proportion; at the same time substituting for a dilatory and expensive means of transport, the dtspach and economy of a thorough railway communication. The line between Wigan and Manchester will pass through a popu lous district, possessing extensive manufactures ; and the coal-field it will traverse and lay open to the manufacturing districts, as well as to Liverpool, is second to none in this part of England in richness and variety. This railway will also afford increased facilities for conveying the produce of the abundant agricultural district, lying between the River Alt and the Douglas, to the manufacturing communities of Lancashire and Yorkshire. Notwithstanding the present uncertain, dilatory, and expensive means of access to Stockport, the numbers resorting thither are very great, and rapidly increasing, and it cannot be doubted that the faci lities and economy in time, as well as money, of a direct railway communication, would give rise to an accession of traffic far exceed ing the ordinary ratio of estimated increase. The benefits resulting from the construction of these lines will be obtained at a comparatively small outlay. The country throughout is easy, and of a level character, rendering the works light, and the gradients highly favourable. There are no engineering difficulties, and the advantage of terminal stations, and access to and through the principal towns, are already provided by the establishments of the Grand Junction, Manchester and Leeds, North Union, and Liver pool and Bury Companies, whose cordial co-operation is guaranteed by the participation of those Companies in the capital, and conse quently in the success, of the undertaking.

The answer is, that he is the poet of domestic life he brings all the endearments of Home before us ; he is the poet of Nature, which he describes in all its diversified aspects ; and he is also the poet of Christianity, for no man contributed more to the re- ViViil Of Protestant Christianity when it had sunk to the level of mere morality. Nor ought we to omit noticing the genuine English feel ing Sad ardeht love of his country which So frequently burst forth in the poems of Cowper.

I THE GRAND BALL at GUILDHALL Often as the Guildhall of the City of London has been the scene of festivities, and especially of balls for charitable pur poses, it was never more appropriately or more brilliantly filled than on Wednesday evening, when a grand ball and concert were given in aid of the funds of the ward schools. If there be something of selfishness, there is also much of common sense and of safety in the maxim that " charity begins at home." Some of the entertainments of this kind that have heretofore been given in the Guildhall, and under the patronage of the Corporation, have been open to objec tion, on the ground that this very necessary and salutary rule was forgotten, and that the claims of those who were at our own doors were n4lected in favour of others, who, whatever might be their misfortunes, had at least not an equal right to preference. But the ball of last night gave rise to no such complaints; on the contrary, if one might judge from the gay, brilliant, and numerous assemblage of both sexes who thronged the hall, it must have been " taken up" with no ordinary spirit and favour. PerhapA there were not so many of the nobility and gentry present as some of the most sanguine supporters of the object of the entertainment might have expected, but their absence was more than compensated fur by the th rongs o f hi g hl y respecta bl e citizens who, with their families, mingled in the pastime of the evening. As the natural patrons ,of the ward schools, on behalf of which the ball was given, they were by far the most appropriate visitors. The ball was announced as a " grand fancy and dress ball," but there was more of the " dress" in the ordinary sense of the term than of the "fancy." A few grotesque locking cavaliers and Greeks were here and there scattered among the throng, and one or two attempts at costume, the exact character of which it would perhaps have puzzled even the wearers to describe; but by far the greater portion of the company were in the ordinary evening dress. The hall was brilliantly illuminated with gas, and an excellent baud played all the usual dances, to which the fair visitors and their partners footed it to their hearts' content on toe more or less light and fantastic. The dancing was continued till long past midnight. There was also a concert in which Mrs. Alfred Shaw, Miss S. Novelle, Mr. Machin, and several other vocalists, took part. It was under the direction of Mr. Benedict, and went of admirably. Among the company present (the numbers were estimated at nearly 2,000) we observed the Lord Mayor, the Sheriffs, Lord Seaham, the Earl of Munster, Count Noailles, Count Potoski, Captain de Bathe, Captain Seymour, Lord Dudley Stuart, Sir Moses Montefiore, Aldermen Lucas, Fare brother, Hughes Hughes, Hooper, and Sir John Key, and Admiral Ross. Several very handsome donations to the schools were made during the day and evening. Among them were, we under stand, 1001. from Messrs. Masterman, and 50/. from Messrs. Rothschild. The donations during the evening were esti mated at upwards of 5001. LOVE AND ATTEMPT TO MURDER..---011 Sunday evening an attempt at murder was committed by a Young man named John Harrod, on the person of Elizabeth Shillam, a young woman to whom he had fur some time paid his addresses ; the parties all reside in the neighbourhood of Winchcomb, Harrod being a farm servant in the employment of Mr. Smith, of Irley. On the evening in •question Elizabeth Shillam was walking with two other females in the neighbourhood of Winchcomb, they were met by Harrod, who went up to her and said he had a few words to say to her; the other females walked on, but they had not proceeded many yards when they heard a scream and cry of murder, and looking round they saw Harrod with his arm round their companion's neck, who was struggling with him, and still shrieking murder. On their running back to the spot the felon made off; they found his in tended victim with her hands covered with blood, and nearly black in the face from strangulation. It appeared that on Harrod entering into conversation with her he wished to renew the intimacy between them (which had been broken off through some quarrel), and on her refusing he Seized hold of her and endeavoured to strangle her by twisting her bonnet strings round her neck; unable to succeed in this, he opened a clasp knife and made several attempt to stab her and cut her throat, but in this he was fortunately prevented by a thick shawl which she wore tied round her neck at the time; the shawl was cut through in several places, and the skin of the neck slightly grazed, and her hands were severely cut in endeavouring to ward off the hlows. Information having been immediately forwarded to Sergeant Coleman, one of the county police, that officer suc ceeded in capturing the offender, hid in a barn on his master's farm, and he will be had before the Wind - womb bench of magistrates for examination this day; the knife was found to be a very formidable looking weapon, the blade five inches long, and covered with blood.— Wilts Standard. SHOCKING DEATH OF A BOY BY FIREWORKS.— Oa Wednesday an inquest was held in the board-room of St. Bartholomew's Hospital, before Mr. William Payne, as to the death of Walter Good, aged 14 years. From the evidence of several witnesses it appeared that on the night of Satur day, the Bth inst., he proceeded to a shop for the purpose of buying fourpenny worth of fireworks, and whilst on the way home he discharged a squib, and seeing a police constable he placed the case of the squib in his pocket among other squibs, and not knowing that it was alight it ignited the whole of them. The policeman seeing the fire issuing from his pockets and the bottom of his trousers, immediately ran to him and pulled his clothing off. His shirt was in flames, which were ultimately extinguished, but not before the de ceased was frightfully burned over the whole of his person. He was conveyed to the above institution where he died from the effects of the injuries on Tuesday last. The Coro ner having remarked on the case, the jury returned a verdict of "Accidental Death." ACCIDENT ON THE LEICESTER AND SWANNINGTON RAILWAY.—LEICESTER, Nov. 18.—An accident of a most serious nature occurred on this line yesterday, to George Bott, a breaksman, in the employ of the Colliery Company. The unfortunate man was coming from Swsuinington to Leicester with a coal train, consisting of thirty-eight car riages, and having two engines and two " break wag gons" attached to it. Upon arriving at New Bridge-lane, between Desford and Thalby, the breaks were put on and the steam turned off, for the purpose of leaving a portion of the train behind, when it is supposed that Bott gave the handle of his break a sudden jerk, which caused it to break. South, the other breaksman, happening to look back at the time, saw Bott in the act of falling, and attempt ing to save himself by grasping at the carriage, but failing in that he was thrown across the rails, whereupon Smith called out to the engine -drivers, but was unable to make them hear till the train bad proceeded half a mile, when he (Smith) got down, and, with two others, went to the spot where Bott was seen to fall; upon arriving there they found the unfortunate man in a ditch adjoining the line. The poor fellow was lifted on to the tender, and conveyed as quickly as possible to the infirmary, where it was found that his left shoulder was dislocated, his right leg nearly cut through, whilst the leftileg had atransverse wound, extending from the middle of his thigh to the calf of his leg, and it was found necessary to amputate both limbs immediately. The poor fellow bore a most excellent character, and had tilled his late situation about a year and a half; he was only 22 years of age, and upon the point of marriage. A CHARGE OF MUTINY AGAINST .4. PRIVATE IN THE ROYAL MAEINE CORPS.—On Tuesday, the 18th in stant, a General Court-martial assembled in the officers' mess-room, at the Royal Marine Barracks, at Chatham, under a warrant, dated the 14th November, from the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, for the trial of Charles Wright, a private of the 25th company belonging to this division. The Court consisted of the following officers : Lieut.-Colonel W. Furgusson, Lieut.-Colonel Thos. Peebles, Lieut.-Colonel Thos. Stevens, Brevet-*ajor James Whit comb, Captain Geo. Griffin, &c. The prisoner was escorted into the court-martial room by a guard with fixed bayonets, and on his taking his station the Deputy Judge Advocate read over the following charges against him, viz. :-1. For having, at the Royal Marine Barracks, at Chatham, at or about the hour of eight o'clock in the even ing on the 9th day of November, 1845, behaved in an insubordinate manner, by laying down his arms and accoutrements, and saying that he would not soldier any more, or words to that effect, such conduct being subversive _of good order and military discipline. 2d Charge.—For having, at the Royal Marine Barracks, Chatham, on or about the morning of the 10th day of November, 1845, stated to Colonel John Wright, K.H., the Commandant of the Chat ham Division of Royal Marines, when questioned as to his conduct, as detailed in the lot charge, that he meant it, and would stick to it, or words to that effect. 3d Charge.—For having, at the Royal Marine Barracks, at Chatham, on or about the morning of the 11th day of November, 1845, again stated to the Commandant of the Chatham Division, Colonel John Wright, K.H., when cautioned upon his conduct, as set forth in the Ist and 2d charges, that he meant what he said, or words to that effect. The prisoner was again taken to the guard-room, and the decision of the Court will not be known until confirmed by the Lords of the Admiralty. NAVAL MOVEMENTS IN THE PACIFIC.—The Thalia frigate, which has arrived at Portsmouth from the Pacific, has brought accounts which seem to explain the naval move ments in that quarter, which had attracted some attention in England, and partly to confirm, partly to negative the in ferences which had been drawn from them. We announced in the month of May last, that, after some bustle of prepa ration, the American frigate, of 50 guns, and the Daphne sloop of war had sailed with sealed orders to the northward, and that they were supposed to have gone to the Columbia. So far as the American was concerned, this conjecture ap pears to have been correct, as she has proceeded to that quarter; but the Daphne returned to the southward, and has been sent elsewhere. At a later period, some interest was crrated b the announcement that Admiral Seymour, in the tollingwood, of eighty guns, with the Siodeste, sloop of war, had sailed with sealed orders from Callao. It now appears that the first object of his voyage was to meet the French admiral ar ~s Otaheite, for the purpose of settling Mr. P i fitc ce h claim for compensation ; but that, frottthetwenas to be would sail for the Sandwichs,lslands, dtenre would sail for joined by the Frolic brig, when the aq ua from these ac the coast of California.

Adding to these their vessels in the Chinese sea, they will be able to assemble a force of six frigates (each as large as an English 74-gun ship), five corvettes, one brig, and one schooner.—Manchester Guardian. FRIG FITFUL ACCIDENT IN THE BLACKFRIARS ROAD.—OnWeduesday a distressing accident took place in the Blackfriars-road, to a young man named James Watkins, residing in Redcross-street, Southwark, which it is feared will terminate fatally. He was on horseback, riding round the corner of Charlotte-street at a rapid rate towards Black friars-bridge, and in consequence of turning too sharply, the horse stumbled and threw the rider completely over his head with such violence as tc cause his head and face to be se riously disfigured, and before the animal could be secured, it struggled and f e ll upon the poor fellow. He called loudly for assistance, and was ultimately extricated in a deplorable state. He was conveyed to the accident ward of St. Thomas's Hospital, where he lies in a very precarious state. The challenge of Edward Hawks, to row Noulton, of Lambeth, has not been accepted, on the terms proposed by the former; but Noulton states that he will either give or take 10/. for expenses, and row at Newcastle or on the Thames; Tyne Mercury. SPIRIT of thO". CHRONlCLE.—eagTheaTnidmeisthsaschmieadf: whichasingu c la e r rt a a p in pe ly sil w to ou the FROM THE MORNIN G PAPERS OF YESTERDAY . Anti- R CI N - I 1 have been neither an ungenerous nor an unimportant one, if made a little earlier in the day. The modest proposal to Messrs. Cobden and Bright is neither more nor less than that they should turn Tories—not openly and impudently, as the Times itself did at a memorable epoch, but only as it playa Tory now—that is covertly, cautiously, with a sheep's cloth ing of Liberalism loosely hung over its shoulders, and with the pretence of moderation. " Free trade," exclaims that organ, which abetted the formation of a Ministry and a Parliament of monopolists, " is gaining ground, but the League is not." The League, it says, has risen and orown by Liberal support, but the Liberals have done or it all that they can do. The moderate Tories are now anxious to come round to ideas of such truth and power, which it is no longer possible to resist. The only thing, the last scruple, which prevents these Tories from making final sacrifice of their principles and prejudices, is fear of the League. They have but little objection to give up the corn-laws ; but they dread the League as " a Jacobin club," " a sectarian cliqiie," and " a combination of Radi calism and Destructiveness." But if the League, which is assumed to be " aware of its past errors," would only mend them—would first of all abandon "the sectaries," and con form to Mother Church, a thing so requisite for dear-sighted. ness in political economy--if the League " would disclaim all party connexions and obligations," and allow Tories to pass for free-traders, now that free trade has carried the day, Just as they passed for Reformers when the Act of 1832 was accomplished ;—if the League would only do this, it would deserve well of the country and the Times, and Messrs. Cobden and Bright might liot only be elected Members of the Con servative party, bet, like the great Hudson, be received as guests at Tamworth. We must say, that notwithstanding the grave impudence of such overtures, they are the best of signs. It is evident that the battle is well nigh won, the contest well nigh over, and that the more knowing of the Tories are anxious to rat from the monopps list camp, if the semblance of a flag of truce were held forth to cover their desertion. Nor are we surprised to find that the more knowing of the Tories consider the League as a more important fact than even the corn-low itself, and that they would be contented to waive the one, provided they could win over or even neutralise the other. But the power of the League is of Tory creation. The Tories sowed the dragoon's teeth, and were fully warned of the seed which they put into the earth, and of the crop to be expected from it. Their defiance of reason and right gave birth to the great principle of popular associations, whose power of achieving rightful and rational purposes has been too fully tested to be ever abandoned. One might as well hope to abolish steam pressure at the present day as political associations. We may henceforward set it down as a law of free countries, that a great and universally felt grievance will infallibly give rise to an association of the many, who feel it. to rid them selves of it by common effort. The most powerful argu ments, put forth in the ablest way, and circulated with the greatest universality and speed, can be best furnished by united funds and intellects; and the most efficient means for influencing public feeling and legislative and administra tive opinions can be put in action in this way. Such ga therings of men cannot take place without raising master spirits to take the lead; and thus classes, if wronged or op pressed, or strongly and universally move dl by ideas of ante licention, will find tribunes to represent theta. It is there ft).- a groundless fear and calumny that brands the Anti- Corn-law League as Jacobin or Destructive, especially when it is well-known how little the great class behind it is one or the other. It is puerile to call it sectarian. What matters religious opinion in the case of corn? Religious opinions have leagues of their own. The dread of the League—put forth by its enemies, even whilst they recommend a cession of the great principle to carry which the League was formed —merely implies a consciousness that there remain gross abuses which are calculated to excite associations to get rid of them, but which the Ultras are still determined to defend. However, the wheedling proffers made to the chiefs of the League being accompanied with no trifling abuse of them, shows how little the writer trusts in the effect of his elo quence. But neither Sir Robert Peel nor the Times, how ever they may turn free-traders, and abandon monopoly in the eleventh hour, can persuade men with memories for the events of even a few years back, that the Tories are friends to the fair influence and development of the middle classes, whom they have striven so long to shear and to oppress, no more than they can persuade men of plain sense that they are friends of tolerance, because they at last reluctantly ac quiesced, when the fetters of religion in both countries were struck off in despite of their long and stubborn resistance. TIMES.—It is a curious and unforeseen consequence of the institutions of the United States and of the state of parties in that country, that the destinies of the republic and its pacific relations with the rest of the world are placed within the almost absolute control of a man of whose character and abilities as a statesman scarcely anything can with certainty be known. The rival candidates for the highest office in the state at the last election were driven from the field or de feated by having acquired too much celebrity and given too many pledges. Mr. Polk was brought forward, in the most imposing obscurity, as the nominee of the predominant party in the Union ; and the result of the election revealed the astonishing fact that the country was delivered over for the next four years to a man who had acquired his power not by individual merit or exertions, but as the mere symbol of an ir- responsible faction. For purposes of mischief, and for what ever may flatter the whims or passions of the people, such a man enjoys the greatest imaginable degree of political power. If Mr. Polk be disposed to plunge the United States into war, such a measure would not be more difficult to him, in the present state of feeling in that country, than it would be to the Autocrat of all the Russias. Whatever betide, the President of the United States is certain of holding office for three years and a half from the present time ; and, notwith standing the extreme reserve which has marked the first six months of his official career, we are much mistaken if he do not prove himself in the end a worthy successor of those de mocratic statesmen, and especially of General Jackson, whose intemperate character and unscrupulous policy have already so profoundly infected and modified the spirit of the American people. In a word, the personal disposition of Mr. Polk is at this juncture of such importance that the question of peace or war may be decided by it ; and, we are constrained to add, that all we know of that per sonal disposition, and all we learn from America, tend to strengthen our suspicions rather than our confidence. It remains to be seen how far the people of the United States and the present Cabinet of Washington are advanced on this fatal track. We do not believe that they are so wicked and absurd as to desire a war, but we suspect that they are not strenuously and sincerely labouring to avert it ; and we have no doubt that upon the opening of the next session of Con gress one party at least will do all that it can to embroil the present very delicate foreign relations of the Union. With regard to the Oregon territory, the Americans seem now to be convinced that we are not to be bullied out of that part of her — Majesty's dominions ; and they fall back on the expedient of gaining time in order to promote that species, of emigration which ends like the occupation of the nests of other birds by the cuckoo. But, as we have repeatedly observed, the present position of the question renders this indefinite postponement impossible. The two states cannot allow their relations to be kept in jeo pardy by the uncertainty of tenure, and the probability of a collision on the banks of the Columbia. The treaty of 1790 recognised the principle of a joint right, and of joint occu pancy. The English Government and an English company availed themselves of that right, and resorted to the coast for the purposes of the fur trade. The Spaniards allowed their co-existing right to remain dormant, and until the current of emigration from the United States began to penetrate of late years to the falls of the Willamet, the existence of this boundary question was only known to the diplomatists who had been engaged from time to time in discussing the provi sional arrangement. At the present time England adheres to the principle of the treaty of 1790, that neither party has an exclusive claim to the country; but she declares her re solution to resist any exclusive claim hostile to her own concurrent rights, and she urges the American Go vernment to commute those concurrent and now conflicting claims to the whole country into an undisputed title to a moiety of the territory. Virtually the American Government has recognised the existence of this concurrent right by offering to divide the district by the 49 degrees parallel of latitude. That proposal reduced the ques tion from one of right to one of expediency and amount. Yet, although there are so many just causes of mistrust in the present aspect of this transaction, a statesman of large mind and patriotic views might discern in the present condi tion of England and of the United States powerful means of cementing the good understanding and the pacific interests of the two countries. On both sides there are most important commercial changes or concessions to be made. If Mr. Polk be anxious to conciliate the states of the west, their interests would be infinitely more promoted by open ing a channel for the exportation of their great article of agricultural produce—lndian corn—to Great Bri tain, than by the annexation of countless acres on the shores of the Pacific ; and if the commercial policy of England is steadily to advance in the direction which has of late years been g►ven to it, the reduction of the American tariff will in fallibly lead to the modification of our restrictive duties on American produce. On the one hand England has to offer to the United States all the advantages of a commerce propor tioned to the rapid growth of two great and cognate nations, and extending itself under the beneficent influence of peace and freedom ; on the other hand, if the most distant and un peopled tract of the British empire be assailed by force or fraud—if a just right be invaded—if a British subject be wronged, England has an arm to resist and to redress the injury, and she has the firm, unanimous resolution, of her statesmen and people to hold her own. MEETING OF LAW WRITERS.—The law stationers and writers, without whom little or nothing can be done in the preliminary Parliamentary affairs, fearing a vital injury is likely to accrue from the introductio n, by some respectable friends, of printed and lithographic documents, as a substi tute for those which have ever been considered as necessary to be the performance of the penman, called a meeting, which was last evening numerously and respectably attended, at the Ship Tavern, Chichester -rents, Lincoln's Inn. Mr. Gardner, law stationer, of Took 's-court, Chancery-lane, was unanimously called to the chair ; and various resolutions were proposed and unanimously agreed to 7 the purport of which was, that a memorial be presented to the Lord Chan cellor,nf g onro et printedy s , b i f y w c a a rni u td s t praying him to remed y th e g: o r w o a ss ne ing d li thographic cbillsoii documents tax to as b s e a allowed That all parties should withhold their assistance in the drawing of the notices from the printed or lithographic books of reference, and that the secretary of the Law Sta tioners' Society should be requested to attend the next meeting. Messrs. Marston, MCartney, Charles, Edwards, Hayes, and other law stationers and writers, having ad dressed the meeting, a business and finance committee was appointed, and the company separated, with a firm determi nation to unite and persevere for the attainment of their mutual rights and privileges. EXTRAORDINARY SUICIDE IN THE MERSEY.—As the steamer Nun was proeeeding from the George's pierhead to Woodside, about seven o'clock on Saturday night, one of the passengers, who was standing near a group of gentlemen near the helm, suddenly sprang to the side of the vessel, vaulted over the bulwarks, and was instantly carried down with the tide. The act is described by the gentlemen to have been the work of an instant, and wilfully committed. The captain, who was upon the paddle-box at the time, had the engines immediately stopped, and ordered the punt to be put out. The order was quickly obeyed, and the punt was rowed about for a considerable length of time to see if the unfortunate man could be found in any direction; but there was not the slightest appearance of him from the moment that he had plunged into the water. It is supposed that he sank even before the engines were stopped. The body has not since been found, nor is it likely to be until it floats, as the melancholy occurrence took place about 500 yards out side the floating stage, and in a very deep part of the river. Many reports have been circulated as to who the deceased is, and as to what was the cause of his committing the rash act ; but we have been unable to trace them to any accurate source. Some said he was a collector of taxes, who had been deficient in his accounts ; others that he was a railway share holder who had lost considerably by recent speculations ; but, upon inquiring in the proper quarter last night, we learned that his name and address were as yet unknown. The gen tlemen in the boat say, that he never spoke a word during the time he was on board, and that he did not appear to be in the slightest degree intoxicated. He wore a dark frock coat, and light-coloured trousers. In lumping over the side of the vessel ke knocked off the hat of a passenger. PROSPECTUS. The object of the proposedundertaking is to unite the city of Exeter with the towns of Yeovil and llridport, as forming a part of the great integral scheme for making the best direct railway cemunica tion from the metropolis, through Exeter to the important seaports and harbours in the British Channel, as well as completing the chain of south coast communication from the ports of Dover, Portsmouth, and Southampton, to Exeter, Plymouth, and Falmouth. Between Yeovil and Westbury, the Wilts, Somerset, and Wey mouth Railway will form the main line of communication, at which latter place it will join a proposed extension of the Berks and Hants Railway from Hungeribrd, carried through the Pewsey Valley, as shown more distinctly in the accompanying plan. The Berks and Hants, and the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Bills have already passed, and those lines are under construction. The Great Western Railway Company will apply for the extension from Ilungerford to Westbury, only thirty-five miles, in the approaching session. The lisle of the Exeter Great Western Railway is intended to com mence at 0, distance of about three miles from Exeter, by a junction with the Bristol and Exeter Railway at Stoke Canon, and proceed ing thence by Ottery Saint Mary and Honiton, will pass into the Valley of the Axe at Axminster. From that place, the main line, in one airection, will continue along the same valley, passing within all‘out three miles of Chard (which town it is proposed to connect with the main line by a short branch), and through Crewkerne, to wards Yeovil, near to which town it will join the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Railway. From Axminster, the main line, in the other direction, will proceed near to Lyme Regis, and thence to Uridport, where it will also join the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Railway, leading towards Dorchester and the coast line to South ampton. The fashionable watering-place of Sidmouth will be made acces sible to visitors from London and all parts of the country, by a branch to that place from Ottery Saint Mary. By reference to the map, it will be seen how effectually this line will supply the only link wanting to complete the continuity of the South Coast Lines, and will afford the best means for an entire through traffic from Cornwall and Devon to the different ports of Lyme, Bridport, Weymouth, Poole, Southampton, Portsmouth, Shoreham, Brighton, Hastings, Dever and Ramsgate. It is also a very important feature in the undertaking, which is now submitted to the public, that it gives railway communication to a line of country hitherto unsupplied with this essential means of in tercourse with the surrounding districts ; many towns of importance 1011 have the benefit of local intercommunication, besides being placed on a main and direct line of transit between the metropolis and the most valuable seaports on the southern coast of England. The inhabitants of the city of Exeter, and of all places beyond it, will be brought to a reduced distance of 177 miles between Exeter and London, instead of 194 miles, the whole being worked uninter ruptedly by one Company, on the same gauge, and on a line superior to any that can be carried for the same object, in any other direc tion, whether considered with reference to the shorter new line re quired to be constructed, or to the comparatively easy gradients that can he obtained at a reasonable cost. Under these circumstances there can be no doubt that this railway will not only confei incalculable benefits on the districts through Which it is intended to pass, and generally on the mineral and agri cultural produce of Devon and Cornwall, but will conduce to the vast national object of rendering the harbours of Plymouth and Falmouth most serviceable for every purpose of commerce, snore easily acces sible for the arrival and dispatch of foreign mails and passengers, avoiding the delays and dangers of Channel navigation, and in case of war, contributing to the security of British property, whether at sea or ma shore. A mere glance at the map will satisfy every inquirer of the com mand this line must possess over an unusally large amount of export and import trade, whether in passengers or in goods, independently of the local resources of the country itself, which are known to be very great. One important item of local traffic on this line will be the article Of colt, with which the district is at present but iMperfeatly provided on account of the high price necessarily paid for land carriage, limit ing very much tile consumption by a large Class of the population, who must be 7 4 reatly benefited by reduced cost of transit by railway. The district from which coal may be brought is in the neighbourhood of Radsto.A, in Somersetshire, to Which place a branch of the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Railway extends, and brings the coals direst from the pit's mouth on t;, the line of r a il way. The interests of the landefl proprietors have been consulted through= out the line, and It is con.llently believed, from the strong local sup port it has received, that the legislature will sanction this measure Without hesitation.

THAMES EMBANKMENT and RAIL- WAY JUNCTION COMPANY. REPORT OF PROCEEDINGS. The Provisional Directors, referring to the objects of the Company as stated in their prospectus, have now to report the result of a de putation from the Board, to the Earl of Lincoln, First Commissioner of Woods and Forests, and Chairman of the Commission for Metro politan Improvements. Ono of the objects of the Company being to co-operate with the Government in carrying into execution the plan of her Majesty's Commissioners for an embankment of the north shore of the Thames, it became the duty of the Provisional Directors to seek an early in terview with the Chief Commissioner, with a view to the immediate arrangements required for the realisation of this great public im provement ; and an appointment having been obtained (September 26), the following proposal was submitted : Thet the whole expense of the embankment should be defrayed by the Company, subject to the stipulation that the Company should be at liberty to connect with such embankment an atmospheric railway viaduct, of ornamental construction, and to continue such viaduct eastward of Blackfriars-bridge to the present Blackwell terminus, in Fenchurch-street, and also across the river by a railway bridge, or by one of the existing bridges, to join the Greenwich, Dover, Croy don, and Brighton Railways. In accordance with the usual practice, this proposal was subse quently transmitted in writing; to which communication an official answer has been received, addressed to the Earl of Devon, Chairman of this Board. The reply of the Earl of Lincoln, bearing date the 10th of October, 1845, is to the effect that a correct judgment can only be formed upon the proposal of the Company after a careful examination of the vari ous details of construction involved in a river line of railway, as affecting public and private interests connected with the navigation ; but it concludes, as will be seen by the following extract, with stat ing that his Lordship is ready to enter into such examination, and that the projected railway shall be the first subject brought under consideration at the ensuing meetings of the Commission : "It will also, I have no doubt, be evident both to your Lordship and the Company, that, at the present period of the year, with many members of the Commission oat of town, and some probably out of the kingdom, any effort that I might make to have the subject now taken up and satisfactory disposed of would be unavailing. If, how ever, after the statement I have thus frankly submitted to you, the Company should feel disposed at once to give the usual Parliamentary notices, such notices having reference to the embankment and rail way combined, I can only assure your Lordship and them that I shall feel it my duty to obtain a meeting of the Commission early in the ensuing year, and to make the construction of the projected rail way the first subject for consideration ; and I have no doubt, that having reference to the importance of an early decision, the inquiries of the Commission may be closed in ample time for any necessary proceedings et the Company in Parliament.* This promised reference to her Majesty's Commissioners, is re garded by the Provisional Directors as a most important advantage to the Company; affording an assurance to the shareholders that their funds will net be wasted, as in the case of many unsound pro jects before the public, in fruitless and expensive Parliameatary con tests. Should the report of the Commissioners be favourable, and the Provisional Directors have strong grounds for anticipating such a result, the Company will proceed with their Bill under auspices which must ensure success ; and, in the event of the plan not being recom. mended to the immediate adoption of Government, the Company will be placed in a position to meet the views of the Commissioners in the following session, or to return the deposits, with comparatively but a trifling deduction for the cost of preliminary surveys. The interview with the Earl of Lincoln, although confined to point. of explanation, was in the highest degree satisfactory, from the ob vious interest taken by the Noble Earl in the structural improve ment of the metropolis ; and the object of this Company is that of a greater metropolitan improvement than has hitherto been compre hended in any plan based upon available resources ;—one combining the advantages of railway transit with architectural embellishment, the means of healthful recreation, and the removal of existing im pediments to commercial traffic. The Provisional Directors have only to add, that the necessary steps have been taken by the Board for compliance with standing orders ; that Mr. Barry has accepted an engagement from the Com pany for the architectural elevations connected with the river front of the embankment, especially in reference to the most effective mode of passing the Temple gardens ; and that the Board, having endeavoured with success to cultivate a friendly understanding with the Companies most interested from their position in a railway em bankment of the river, are now assured that no competing line will be presented to Parliament during the next session. The deputation above described was accompanied by deputations from the Central Terminus Company, and the Great Western and Breatford Company—co-operating with this Board to complete the Connexion of the line with the whole of the metropolitan railways.

MIRACULOUS EscArg.—A man named Richard Sheane, one of the Bath city police, took his place on Mon day evening at the Bristol-station of the Great Western Railway to proceed to Bath by the mail train. Soon after the train started both he and a boy who accompanied him fell asleep, and were carried some distance beyond their destination before either awoke. The r ushing noise of the engine in the Box-tunnel aroused the man from his slumbers, and he then discovered that he had ridden some miles further than he wished. Ilh , first impression was, that the train would stop at Corsham, but it was not so. Onwards he was carried at the rate of 40 or 50 miles an hour. He at last opened the door of the carriage, alighted on the step, made a spring, and . fortunately he was not dashed to pieces. On the arrival ot the train at Chippenham, the circumstance was made knovn t biough the boy, anti immediate search was made i that m, but lie could at first nowhere be found. Hes . he recollects nothing but coming in violent contact with some thing which he supposes to be a bridge; but how long he lay he does not know, but on recovering his senses he crawled to a house close at hand, where he was lodged for the night The next morning he was well enough to walk into Corsham• to a medical man, when . it was found that . , besides being inu2h cat and bruised, his shoulder foun d as dislocated. The man bears a very good character, and it does not appear that lie was the least intoxicated at the time of the rash, ac t. H e had gone from Bath to Bristol in the morning, itt search of a man who had broken into Trinity Church, and the boy in company with him was taken to identify the thief.—Devizes Gazette. ~ `j.l L ANCASTER AND NEWCASTLE-UPON TYNE RAILWAY.
