(Provisionally Registered), - Tie public is respectfully informed that a Company is in course of formation for establishing a direct communication between London and Holyhead and London and Port Dynllaen, thereby effecting the @hottest possible communication between London, Birmingham, and tin centre 0 England, and Dnglin sand the whole of Ireland On reference to the Railway Map of Ireland it will be seen that most of the lines in that country converge either at Dublin or Wick low, the former being nearly in a direct This with Holyhead and the latter with Port Dynllaen. This undertaking will therefore unite i n one inatll 'Weft Nils* of the Irish traffic to this country; and when the system of railway communication in Ireland is complete, will doubtless obtain a very large proportion of the American passenger traffic which will then pass by Port Dynllaen and Wicklow to Va lelitia Bay as the nearest point to the Vulteel States an our North The present line is in effect nearly identical with that recom mended by the Government Commissioners in their reports on the communication between London and Dublin, and whicb was then surveyed with much care; snaking allowances, however, foy the al tered circumstauces that haw since occnfred by the increase of railways in tills country, and availing itself as far as possible of ex isting or contemplated lines, It is intended to proceed by the London and Birmingham Railway to Birmingham, and thence by one of the now projected lines to Shrewsbury, or another course will be by the London and Birming ham, Trent Valley, Trent Valley and Shrewsbury Railways to the wine point, where his roiwv commences, and proceeds in the most direct practicabie course to a oeini near Balla, where the line forks; one branch proceeding to. Bangor, where it unites with the Chester and Holyhead ai.d North Wales Railways, employing the former lice to Holyhead, and thus avoiding the enormous expense entailed by crossing the Menai Stotts ; the other branch proceeding through a district rich in slate, stone, inin;:rals, &tu., by Tiesuadoe to Port Dynliften, where it will also unite with the North Wales Railway, which will prove a valuable adjunct to the present ptoject. The importance of the undertaking, not only to the great com panies to which It Will prove to 41113'4004 a feeder, hut uleo in a national point of view, as effecting a most considerable sav i ng of time and expense on the route to Dublin and the coast of Ireland, are too great to be overrated. and too obvious to be required to be insisted upon. It is clear that the traffic must be unusually large, and from tha surveys Ing(te Mare tppegrs pp donut that the Ike can lie constructed at an average cost. Full particulars, with the mum a of a most influential Provisional Committee, will be published as soots as a correct estimate of the requisite capital is obtained, and in the meantime no applications for shares can he reccivon, N.

Protheroe, Esq., 10, Old Jewry-chambers, London This railway Is intended to connect the South Wales Railway at Chepstow with Gloucester, Cheltenham, and Birmingham, with the projected Cheltenham, Oxford (and London direct), Gloucester, and Aberystwith, Northampton anti Cheltenham, and Manchester and Southampton Railways ; thus forming an uninterrupted line of com munication from the South of Ireland, through Fishgard and Milford In Pembrokeshire, to Gloucester, Cheltenham, Oxford, and London direct, Southampton, Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, and the North of England, by a less circuitous route than can be effected by any of the projected plans for crossing the Sevens below G.oucester, thereby avoiding the difficulties which must necessarily be encoun tered in such an undertaking, and affording the important towns and districts upon the intended lines that accommodation which their Im portance entitles them to. The whole of the traffic upon the South Wales lir* passing to the Eastward of Chepstow will be carried on this line ; added to which the coal and mineral traffic from the Forest of Dean (which, from thl Eastern side to Gloucester, has been esthnated upon authentic documents and information, at upwards of 300,000 tons ; and from the Western or Lydney and Chepstow side the same amount of traffic m►y satbly be calculated upon), amounting- to 600,000 tons per an num (the produce of the Forest alone), Mat be carried upon the line, independent of the local passenger ,traffic and an extended trade in the produce of the Forest, which will necessarily follow the facilities offered by the proposed railroad. The revenue fiom this source alone will give a very handsome di vidend upon the capital to be eXpendod. which is expected will not exceed three-fourths of the intended capital. It is proposed to make branches to Collieries and Iron Works in the Forest, to the present or any new Ports which may suggest themselves on the Severn; and to make the Illwr Wye, at Chep stow, the port of foreign export, where vessels of any size 'can enter free from the dangers and difficulties attendant upon the navigation of the Severn, consequent upon the rocks and shifting sands in that river, It Is intended to build a bridge across the Severn at Gloucester, which will in no way obstrUot the navigation; and the proposed Gloucester and Aberystwith Company will no doubt be ready to jells this Company 10 the expense, if they obtain their Act. The cost of the intended line from Chepstow to Gloucester, including the bridge at Gloucester, and the one over the River Wye, at Chepstow, to Join the South Wales, with branches to the Collieries, Iron Works, and the Sovern, is not expected to exceed 450,000/., but it is intended to provide a capital of 600,0001. to meet any contingencies which may arise. A reference to the map will show the self-evident importance of this line as essential to the perflacting the great project of the South Wales Railway Company (who have obtained their Act of Parlia ment for a railroad from Fishguard and Milford Haven to Chepstow) it connecting it with the principal railways of the kingdoms, at Gloucester, and making it the direct road to London, via Cheltenham and Oxford, for effieting which projects are now before the public with moat Influential support. The line is twenty-six miles in langth, has no engineering difliculUes ; the gradients and curves are extremely good, and works light. It may with very great confidence be asserted, that: there is scarcely a short line of railread iu the kingdom which offers greater advantages to the Shareholders than the present. Pro vlssi:n will be made In the Act of Parliament which will be applied for in the next Session to limit the liability of the Shareholder to the amount of his Shares, and to allow four per cent. on the calls.

The proposed Auckingham and London and.llirmingham Railway Company (for the construction of a line from Wolverton to Itioester) is amalgamated with this Company. Accurate surveys of the country have been taken by Mr. Robert Stephenson, and it has been ascertained that no engineering difilzulty of importance presents itself. . ....... The Illidertaking has already received the sanction and support of very large proportion of the Nobility, Gentry, and Proprietors of land through or near whose property it is intcnded to pass. It is proposed that these lines should be made with the co-operation, and under the direction and superintendence of the London and liirmingharn Railway Company; under a leaSe, in perpetuity, at four per cent. per annum on the outlay, with a eOuditlonal arrange ment as to the surplus profits. It is intended tO offer the shares in such proportion as the amount of i:Apll2O will allow of, to the holders of shares hi the London, Worcester 4101 South Staffordshire Railway Company, subject to the approbation of the Committee of Management, with the exception of suotl as way be required for parties having local interests.

The promoters of this Railway, encouraged by the favourable sup port which has been given to the project, and in compliance with various recommendations they have received, hare determined upon the addition of A branch to Birkenhead, which, although it will manifeatly tend to the advantage of the Shareholders and the public, Will be attended with comparatively little additional outlay. The project will still retain its chief characteristic of a direct railway, and by its connexion, near Warrington, with the Grand Junction Company, is sufficiently comprehensive, without resorting to a c.. — plicated system of branch lines, or materially confiietir.g tercets of existing companies. ...a the in- The line will commence at the otty of Chi'' . of Trafford, Frodabana, And Preston and proceed by way by Lymnt And Stretford direr+ ' “rook, to Warrington, thence Alain line, near Frod.. - to Manchester. From a point on the a nd Bi r k on h a o ...am, a branch will be taken to join the Chester direct - hallway, so as to unite Manchester in the most —gamer possible, with the docks now being formed at Mr. -.ahead. As Manchester, from its geographical position, is the centre of rail way communication between Scotland and the most populous dis tricts of England, so Chester, from a like cause, is the great centre of railway communication between the capitals of Ireland and of Eng land. To connect these two points by a direct and independent line of railway must, therefore, be of the utmost importance, not only in a local point of view, but to the whole commercial intercourse of the country. This line will be the most direct route, by Holyhead, to Ireland. and will be, in all respects, by far the preferable channel of inter course and transit between Ireland and the great manufacturing dis tricts of England. By the railways connecting Cheater with Wrex ham, Osw - estry, Shrewsbury, Hereford, Gloucester, and South Wales, this will be the nearest route from Manchester to the south western parts of England, and to the minerals of Monmouth and Glamorganshiro. The communication with Bristol, Gloucester, and Exeter will be speedy and direct. On reference to the map, tt •ill be seen that a very considerable distance will be saved by this line, as compared with the present circuitous routes by Crewe and by Birkenhead; the former being 52 miles, and the latter 4i miles, while the proposed line is only 34 miles, saving In the one case 18 miles, and in the other 12 miles, besides the serious inconvenience, loss of time, and expense of passing through Liverpool, and crossing the water at that place. It is confidently expected that this line will be the precursor of another scheme, of no ordinary importance—namely, to render 'heater an efficient port for large vessels. This subject was entertained by Sir John Bennie in 183.5, and sub sequently, in the same year, by the late Mr. Chapman, who wrote an able report upon the capabilities of the river Dee. It was again nvestigated, in 1837, by Sir John Rennie and Mr. George Remington, and the practicability of forming a good navigable channel for vessels of large burden, together with docks at Chtstsr, was then fully and clearly established. The entrance channel would commence at Dawpool. which is easy of access (and infinitely preferab e, in point of access and safety, to the docks at Liverpool or Birkenhead), for vessels of large burden, during eight hours every tide, both at springs and neaps ; and the all of the lock would he sufficiently low to admit vessels drawing 20 feet water to enter at all tides. This railway, therefore, in connexion with the proposed docks, will render to Chester and Manchester incalculable advantages. To the former it will restore the proper position natural to so important a city ; to the latter it will give another outlet, by sea, to the tna nufacturing districts, free of the heavy port charges, dues, and risks to which the produce is now subject. It has not been thought advisable to combine the two objects in one company at present, bat should it be found requisite, the two may hereafter be amalga- Mated. Merits of no ordinary degree, therefore, may fairly be claimed for this railway, whether taken in connexion with the proposed docks, eras standing alone, combining as it does all the advantages of any other lines, with this great addition, that it will be the high road to the most convenient outport of Manchester, and will be quite inde pendent of any associations or influences that might tend to oppose the growing desire for a moans of direct and independent communi cation between Manchester and the port of Chester. The line has been carefully examined. There are no difficult earth-works to be encountered ; on the contrary it will be cheap. and of easy formation. Power is reserved to the Committee to de viate from the proposed line in the vicinity of Manchester, should ulterior arrangements render it expedient.

THE RISE and PROGRESS of the HYGEIAN OF MORISOSIAN SYSTEM of MEDICINE. MesSrs. MOBISON, of the British College of Health, New-road, London, consider that there cannot be a stronger proof of the rise and progress of the Morisonian System than the number of vege table purgative pills which we see daily advertised under different names in the newspapers, all of which proceed upon that system. The following extract of a letter just received from Mr. William Willis, of Winchcomb. Gloucestershire, Messrs. Morison's agent for that place, shows at once the importance of the question at issue be tween Hygeists and Doctors : " I must now say that I feel exceedingly happy in being able to testify to the efficacy of the Universal Medicine ; it has done that in Winchcomb which the diplomaed doctors, under the organic theory, could not do ; it has fetched a man out of the union workhouse, and sent him to provide for himself with his own hands. The disease under which he was suffering was the Evil. After taking pills and powders to the amount of 1/. 10s. tid., he was enabled to go forth and seek his own livelihood. You may ask how did he get them ? I can tell you ; I never had anything for them. But for this I care not ; my object in becoming your agent is, not that I may get gain, but to establish a system which I believe to be founded in truth— truth always did stand, and always will. (Signed) " WILLIAM WILLIS. Ilygeist, " Aug. 19, 184 b. but no Doctor." Mesjs. ISiorisot; deem it their duty to inform the public, that Sir James Graham's Bill recognises, to its fullest extent, the medical liberty of the subject, and is quite against the principle of doctors making a trade of their medical advice. On this ground, therefore, Sir James deserves the support of all true Hygeiste. THE LATE MR. E. B. CLIVE, M.P.—The will of the late Mr. Edward Bolton Clive, of Whitfield, in the county of Hereford, has been proved by his son, the Rev. Archer Clive, clerk, the sole executor. He bequeaths to his son, Mr. George Clive, 20,000/., in addition to any sum that may be payable to him out of • his estates ; bequeaths to his daughter, Mrs. Wetherell, an annuity of 6001. a year, to be paid out of his estates in England; leaves liberal legacies to his servants; and bequeaths all the residue of his real and personal estates to his eldest surviving son, the Rev. Archer Clive. He desired by his will that he might be buried in the family vault at Wormbridge without parade, and like any private gentleman. The will is dated the 24th of April, 1845, and his death oc curred on the 221 of July. THE POTATO CROP.—We understand that in several parts of this country a sort of blight has attacked the potato crops, and in some instances completely destroyed whole fields of them in a few hours. The blight, it appears, first affects the leaves, whence it proceeds to the stems, and finally to the roots, rendering the tubers quite unfit for food either for man or beast. From the accounts we find in the public papers, this calamity is not confined to Cornwall, but extends through out the kingdom, affording a melancholy prospect for the in slustrioua poor.—Deronport Indeptiedent. SINGULAR FACT —A somewhat novel incident occurred very recently at the terminus of the South-Western Railway, at Vauxhall. A carrier pigeon was seen in an ,x -busted state; it was caught by hand, but died shortly after wards. A label was appended to one of its legs, addresssed to his wereGrac e t h t r h o e w D n uk up e a o t f t I,e island Wellington, ot which a bo, s , t a and b h r e a d t te three j u y pigeons sis. The distance is computed to be between two and three thousand miles from the place wherethe pigeon appears to have been liberated, to its destination in London. The bird, with its ap • pendage, was immediately forwarded to Apsley House, and the Duke of Wellington, by an autograph note, the next day courteously acknowledged the receipt from the party who sent the bird. It has been stuffed, and in the process it has been discovered that the bird was shot, otherwise there can be no doubt it would have reached home, and it is supposed not to have bad strength to cross the Thames. ARTIFICIAL PRODUCTION OF OYSTERS.- A letter from M. Carbonel was read at a recent meeting of the Academy of Sciences, in which he asserts that he has discovered the means of producing oyster-beds in fresh water ponds and basins, so that every man who has a few feet of ground to spare for the construction of a basin may always obtain fresh oysters ! - 2. 'Major-General Hope's official -report of the fire to Lord Cathcart, on the ingEt;of the of June, differs' in no essential' degree from the one we have already published: We must, therefor., - confine ourselves to the compliment paid by the Major-General to.the troops :—" The spot where the houses were latterly: blown up was at the point where the St. John's suburbs extend beyond the St; Louis; and owing to tholes houses being rapidly blown up, and by the utmost exertion of the troops in clearing a space, a great p art o f t h e St. Louis suburb, the whole of Clapton-terrac e , consisting of villas, and the gentlemen's seats on each side of the St. Louis-road, were saved. I wish it had fallen to my lot to report to your Excellency the services of the officers and men . employed during the progress of both the late lamentable events, on occasions more honoarable and more congenial to their profession ; but it would indeed be unjust if I did not mention the names of Cap tain Boxer, of the royal navy, whose exertions during the whole night, and particularly at the end of the tire„ in directing the spaces to be cleared, were of the greatest service; of Lieutenant Colonel Walker, commanding the Royal Artillery ; of Major Watson, commanding the 14th Regiment ;of Lieutenant-Colon, 1 Thorp, com manding the 89th Regiment.. And I have also to state that I received every assistance from the suggestions and activity of Lieut.-Colonel Ward and the officers of the Royal Engineers ; of Lieut.-Colonel Prik.hard„ Assistant Adjutant-General; of Captain Ingall, Deputy- Assistant Quartermaster-General ; of Ton n Major Knight, and of my aide-de-camp, Captain H ope . T he conduct of the. officers, non-commissioned officers, anti men, as I expressed on the occasion of the former conflagration, exceeds 'anything I can say in their praise. Though this dreadful misfortune occurred in the night, when the men were frequently scattered in various directions, they were quickly assembled at the sound •of the bugle, and never relaxed for an instant in their c 4 onions ; and I am happy to add that but one person.vias killed, - one man's leg broken, and three or four contused, 7 by the several explosions that took place, and that no pains were spared to get the people out of the way. There have been no casualties amongst the troops. 3. Letter froth Lord Cathcart to Lord Fitzroy Somer set, of the 10th July, enclosing the resolution passed by the,Mayor and Corp orat i on of Que b ec, conveying their thanks to Major-General Sir James Hope and the gar rison under his orders. 4. A general order, dated " Head-quarters, Mont real," conveying the approbation and an expression of admiration of the GoTernor-General of the praiseworthy conduct of the troops, and complinienting Major-Gene ral Hope on the judieious mettsr.rts he had adopted. 5.

(From the Naval and Afitttry Gazelle.) • We call the attention, most strongly, of all war ot/i 7e•rs to the annexed petition which has been drawn up in their favour, to be presented to her Majesty. We urgently press on them that it is a duty they owe to their own honour, and that of their brethren in arms, not to allow indolence, indifference, or ill-grounded fears to interfere with the great object in view; and that they will come forward to sign this petition, less with a view cf gaining a trifling distinction so long withheld, than as proof how much• they remain alive to the honour and renown of the profession of arms. _ We bohlly appeal to the sense of the public at large. whether there is anything in the substance of the peti• tion that can in the least degree be construed into want of respect to authority ; and ask whether the prayer it contains is not modest iu form and just in principle. TO THE WEDS'S MOST EXCELLENT MIJESTT. _ _ May it please your Mnjesty, The officers of the United Service, survivors of the late war, who served in action with the enemy but bear no honourary mark of su , :h service, dutifully approach your Majesty with a humble memorial, praying your Majesty's grace for themselves and their subordinate brethren in arws, who remain alike undistinguished. They respectfully solicit your Majesty's gracious consideration of their peculiar case, standing, as they do, alone in mortifying exclusion from those honours extended both to their former chiefs and their present, juniors. That they served well and suffered much, sparing neither thoir energies nor their blood to wiu distinction, is attested by records known to your Ma jesty, and has been acknowledged on the part of the nation by the repeated thanks of its representatives in Parliament. They have appealed to the mediation of the Houses d Lords and Commons, in order that their prayer might be laid before your Majesty ; in deference to the sense of the former noble body, as implied in the comments of their distinguished leader, the petitioners now most humbly, but with renovated hope, venture to carry their appeal to the feet of their Royal Mistress —the fountain alike of honour and of goodness. Deign, then, Most Gracious Madam, to listen to the petition of a class of your Majesty's subjects, uho to the proofs of devotedness to the service of their Sovereign and country, given in days when England was grateful under the emotions of rictorv, are ready, ehould occa sion arise, to add the sacrikee of their lives in !he same noble cause. May God preserve your Majesty in health and glory, is the prayer of your Majesty's most dutiful subjects and petitioners. The petition, which lies at our office and at the office of our contemporary, the Uniwl Service Gazette, is al ready most numerously signed by veteran officers of all !Italia.
