To LET, for such a term of years as may be agreed on, TWO SEAMS of COAL lying under an estate of about 160 acres, within Eve miles of the Port of Swansea. This estate is contiguous to the Graigola and Bryndorway Collieries, and contains the same seams of Coal which have been used for many years by the East India Com pany, the Government, and at present by some Waterworks and large Brewery establishments. The ground is well proved by exten sive workings in adjoining collieries. The property is believed tube free from faults, and the workings may be opened in an efficient manner, at a moderate outlay. The Coal can be produced at a very low cost, and the transit to the Port will be easy. The consumption of this description of Coals. as will be seen by the City Annual Re turns, has greatly increased of late. SHROPSHIRE, CHESHIRE, IRELAND, BIRKF.N ____ HEAD, &c. &c.

GREAT NOVELTY IN PERIODICAL LITERATURE. • On the Ist of May next, THE ILLUMINATED MAGAZINE will be issued as a Bound Volume, without extra charge. The Issuing of a Magazine In bound volumes monthly will remove the great objection to periodical publications when sent out in paper covers.

The plan on which the New Series of the ILLUMINATED MAGA ZINE will be issued will obviate these objections ; it will furnish svery month, to the book-case or library, A HANDSOME BOUND VOLUME, (Price One Shilling and Sixpence) in small Bvo., which will be enriched with the best Artistic and Li terary talent of the day.

The Board of Trade having reported In favour of the Newark and Sheffield line, that Company have announced their intention to ex tend their project from Newark to a junction at Sleaford with the Cambridge and I incoln line. It is also intended to extend the proposed line of railway from Hol beash to Spalding, there to form a junction with the Spalding and Stamford Branch of the Cambridge and Lincoln line, which that Company have also pledged themselves to the Board of Trade to carry into effect. _ It cannot fail to be observed that the projected lines will together form the most direct, complete, and continuous communication between the eastern, western, midland, and northern districts of the kingdom, will bring the important markets of Norwich and Man chester nearer to each other by fifty miles than by any other line of railway ; and besides giving communication to the ports of Grimsby, Boston, King's Lynn, Spalding, and Sutton Bridge, with the interior of the country, and with each other, will afford the greatest amount of local accommodation to the intermediate districts; in addition to which, these towns and districts will be placed on a through line to the metropolis, by their connexion with the Lynn and Ely and the Northern and Eastern Railways. From a survey recently made by Mr. Fulton of that portion of the _ . line from Lynn to Boston, it appears there is no tunnelling, cutting, or embanking, of any importance necessary, and that the line will be practically a dead level. Under these circumstances, and from the investigation that has been made of the other portion of the line, it is confidently estimated that the proposed capital will be amply sufficient for the construction of the necessary works and every con sequent expense, and the income derivable from the great traffic which must necessarily arise, not only from the transit of passengers, but from the transport of fish, as well as of corn, cattle, and other pro duce of the great agricultural district through which the lines pass to the principal food-consuming districts, and of coaLs, lime, and staple commodities for the inland districts, will afford an ample return for the proposed outlay of capita'. It is proposed to apply ibr the usual power to allow interest at the rate of 41. per cent. per annum upon tke paid-up capital from the date of each payment until the completion of the railway. A large proportion of the capital being already secured, it has been determined to limit the period for receiving applications for the remaining Shares to the 21st instant, until which date applications will be received by the Solicitors and Parliamentary Agents, or by the undermentioned Brokers :—Messrs.

This undertaking will, in connection with existing and projected lines of railway, bring into immediate communication with Birming ham, and the whole midland and Northern Districts of England, the great mineral fields of Monmouthshire, as well as those adjoining Car diff and Merthyr Tydvil ; at the same time it will furnish to the im portant agricultural counties of Hereford, Worcester, Brecon, and M onmouth, a ready channel for the transmission of their produce to the dense population inhabiting the mineral districts of South Wales. The object of this company will be very materially aided, first, by the existing line from Cardiff to Merthyr: and, secondly, by the lines intended to be formed by the Welsh Midland Railway Company. The line will commence at Newport, and will thence proceed northward by Pontypool and Abergavenny to Hereford, where (in that direction) it will terminate. From Abergavenny a branch will ext.nd eastward to Monmouth, and another westward to Brecon. From Brecon an extension will be made to Merthyr, to join the Taaff Vale Railway, ending at Cardiff. Thus will be established, in addition to a free intercourse with more distant localities, a complete chain of railway communication amongst the important towns and districts just enumerated, and which are now wholly unprovided in that respect. The portion of the line extending westward from Monmouth will also promote the most direct passenger route that can be adopted from Monmouth to Carmarthen, and the South of Ireland. In addition to the main line and extensions above indicated, the Directors propose to place themselves in immediate communication with the proprietors of the most important works in the several dis tricts traversed, in order to fix the situation and the course of the minor branches, which will be necessary to complete the comprehen sive scheme of communication intended ; and to this object regard has been had in fixing the capital of the Company. The investigations which have been made en the subject of the traffic fully justify the conclusion that the ur dertaking is eminently ealculated for the advantage and convenience of the public, and that it will prove a most profitable investnyant of capital. In conclusion, it may suffice to observe that it is well known that the scheme of a comprehensive system of inland communication in the districts in question has already engaged the serious attention of the tribunal appointed by the Legislature for the initiatory examina tion of railway projects; and the Board of Trade has, in its report on the Tring and Oxford schemes, (Idly recognised the great im portance and necessity of the chain of communication of which the present undertaking will form a material link in the following man ner :—" The accommodation of Herefordshire, Worcestershire, South Wales, and the important districts lying to the west of the present lines of railway will evidently, at no distant perio.l, require not only a wide gauge railway along the southern coast, to place them In com munication with London, but also a narrow guage railway, to place them In direct and unbroken communication, through Birmingham, with the manufacturing districts and the great railway system of the rest of the kingdom." The engineering capabilities of the course of the line and exten sions have been ascertained to be excellent, and the capital proposed will be ample for the construction of the 125 miles of railway intended to be formed. _ .

FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—Sir Robert Peel is the male Catherine de Medicis of modern Conservatism. There is a real duplicity, as Ratike has said of his female prototype, not in his words, or in his actions only, but in his mind. He has two strings to his bow ; he is always for sitting on two stools. This dupli city of view and ofconduct, as in the lady above-mentioned,so in the present gentleman, after attempting to play one party against the other, ends at last in a violent crisis. Catherine first leaned towards the Protestants--and ended by enacting the Saint Bartholomew. Peers P:otestantisin seems drawing to its catastrophe in a similarly violent situation. He has driven his own original parts- to bay—and it stands at bay. He has thrown himself on Whig sup port ; and he will have to take it, we surmise, on Whig terms. Consistency of principle demands that the party in Opposition should speak their whole mind on the whole extent of the Irish Church question. It is forced upon them ; they have not factiously forced it upon the Government. On the contrary, they have, thus far, given the Government the most unreserved support. The public, however, has spoken out, and shown itself strongly per suaded that (as we stated) what is proposed is one thing— what is argued for is another. The Minister's act indi cates intentions which are universally received with im mense distrust. And his argumentative supporters make the matter worse. They demonstrate that much more remains behind. Mr. Gladstone on Friday, Mr. Milnes yesterday, let the cat terribly out of the bag. The country sees clearly enough that this is only a beginning of new church policy. And they will have Sir Robert Peel begin nothing of which they don't see the end. As an Irish dealer, they will buy no pig in the poke from him. Now, in this matter, the Opposition leader s h ave em b ar k e d in e same boat with Sir R. Peel. Unless, however, they mean to commit party suicide for the sake of his beaux yeux (to say nothing of the sartorial " sacrifices to the graces" which Mr. Grant has attributed to him) —they must declare all they would do with the Irish Churches, and how they would do it. The widest possible unpopularity has been already incurred by both ' parties. The patty in power may get out of it how they can —that is no concern of the party in Opposition. What they have to think of is simply to connect their present conduct with their past professions; and set forth, in their full extent, the principles on which they have followed the Ministerial move. Those principles may not be less un popular than that move is —but, if true, they must make way. The unpopularity is incurred—tout est perdu fors 1 'hon new•—it is for Opposition to take good care that honour, at least, shall be safe, and that the country shall know where to look for men—not to consult its momentary pleasure—bat to chalk out a clear future course. Sir R. Peel sits like Joe Miller's Jew at dinner, aghast at the sudden thunder-storm—" Here is a piece of work about one little bit of bacon I" But the little bit of bacon leads the public to infer the whole hog. Even that little bit is more than the public will tolerate, without knowing what is to follow. Sir R. Peel has made the great mistake that he could keep Protestant zeal quiet by treating the thing as nothing new, while the Irish majority are to take it as something new. This is adding distrust and suspense to inevitable Protestant unpopu larity. The duplicity is perceived ; and if it had not, his supporters have taken good care to disclose it. Two such speeches as Mr. Gladstone's and Mr. Milnes' involve all that Mr. Ward's motion menaced, and something more. They involve the positive patronage of the Romish priesthood, as teachers of the people, while Mr. Ward's motion only went to deal with surplus eccle siastical funds (such as those Mr. Hume last night men tioned) for general educational purposes. Mr. Glad stone, therefore, and Mr. Milnes, go farther than Mr. Ward went towards directly superseding Protestant ministry as regards Roman Catholic masses. They would directly patronise another ministry, as effec tual, where the former is ineffectual—and unless they up hold the preposterous absurdity, that where that acknow ledged inefficacy exists, and where, on that very ground, they' would erect State machinery to supply other agencies —the non-working wheels are to go on being oiled " for the look of the thing." and the public to be taxed for more oil for the working ones, as well as for putting them "in gear " at first starting—unless this preposterous absurdity is asserted, Sir Robert Peel's argumentative adherents espouse the appropriation clause, and something more. Is it for the Whigs to dissemble that a new principle is involved here • and to shrink from d ec l ar i ng th a t prin ciple, in the whole extent to which they would act upon it? This appears simply due to themselves on the part of the Opposition. Mr. Milnes stated it to be " his apinion that the country was not at the present time susceptible of the arguments which had been adduced in favour of the Bill." But he was just as great a sinner himself in the way as Mr. Gladstone. The country is sus ceptible of alarm, at all events; and such speeches have done all that could be done to alarm it. Nothing more will be lost by explicitness ; there is nothing now to be saved by silence. We once hazarded a fabled illustration of the ostrich gait of Sir Robert Peel's policy. But now the ostrich would screen itself by sticking its head in the sand, and, because it will not see its way, thinks that nobody else sees its where abouts. STANDARD.—The Times this morning has a warm panegyric upon Mr. Macaulay's speech. At this we cannot wonder ; the speech was characterised by duplicity and rancour, self-seeking and spite, clothed in coarse and offen sive language, the very qualities by which the Times itself is so disgracefully distinguished. Mr. Macaulay's position is no doubt a puzzling one ; he and his party think that by voting against the Bill before the House they would ruin the Ministry (we trust that they are mis taken), but they know that they would at the same time utterly destroy themselves. What, then, was Mr. Macaulay to do ? To vote for the Bill, and even to speak for it, but at the same time to damage the measure in the eyes of all good men, by fallacious and un-Christian arguments in its support, and to throw upon its authors all the dirt that even his practised industry could collect. An article which we have copied from this day's Morning herald, fairly we think (by a reference to facts and dates) demonstrates the perfect harmony and consistency of Sir Robert Peel's conduct towards the Church in Ireland, from the day in which he can be said to have been a political leader, whether as head of a party in opposition, or as head of a government. For fifteen years, he has steadily and constantly fought the battles of the Church against Mr. Macaulay and his faction, and never, as we firmly believe, did the Right Hon. Baronet propose any measure better calculated to fortify the temporal esta blishment of the Church, or to accelerate the completion of its sacred purpose, than the measure now before the House of Commons. What inconsistency is there here? But, says Mr. Macaulay, Sir Robert Peel has taken his party by surprise; if, however, there be a surprise, it is a surprise with twelve months' warning, and a surprise of which Sir R. Inglis, Mr. Colquhoun, Mr. Plumptre, or Col. Verner, makes no complaint. But, then asks Mr. Macaulay, with an air of triumph, where is Lord Stanley's Registration Bill ? The reproach of not introducing the Bill since 1841 must, however, be divided with Lord Stanley and Sir Robert Peel by every one of the Conservative Members who voted for it five years ago. It was as competent for any one of the number to revive the measure, as it was to Lord Stanley, or Sir Robert Peel ; for we may remind Mr. Macaulay that it was not introduced as a Government measure, but introduced by a private Member of Parliament. No reproach is, however, due to any one in the matter. The Registration Bill was a practical remedy for an existing practical evil, the fraudulent composition of the Irish registry five years ago. It was the duty of the Parlia ment to prevent future Houses of Commons being elected by a fraudulently-composed registry, and therefore it was right and necessary to introduce such a Bill as was introduced by Lord Stanley in 1840. Time has, however, done the work of the Bill to some extent—we believe to a sufficient extent to preclude the necessity of legislation upon the subject. The attention of the people has been di rected to the frauds practised with facility in the novelty of the new constitution given by the Reform Bill, and no Registration Bill seems to be now called for. If, however, Mr. Macaulay thinks one is necessary, it is as com petent to him to introduce one now, as it was to Lord Stanley to introduce one in 1840. Let us take leave of Mr. Macau lay's speech with an acknowledgment that it is in every way worthy the commendation of the Times. IRELAND. REPEAL ASSOCIATION. DurtuN, APRII. 14.—The usual weekly meeting of the As sociation took place to-day in the Conciliation Hall, Mr. E. Clements in the chair. Mr. O'CONNELL read a letter from Mr. D. Callaghan, M.P., in which he stated himself to be an unflinching re pealer, and promised to join the Association upon his arrival in Dublin. Mr. O'CONNELL said, that on a former day he had an nounced that the Committee of the Association were consi dering the best method of celebrating the 30th of May, the anniversary of the incarceration of himself and his friends, and on that occasion he had stated his own opinion to be, that a renewal of the Clontarf meeting would be the most satisfactory step that could be taken for that purpose. On reflection, however, he feared, that at a meeting so near town as Clontarf would be, they might not have the same control over a large number of persons as in the country. In town there were a large number of active persons who differed so widely from them in political opinion that it was possible confusion might be created on such an occasion. He, there fore, thought that it was best to postpone the meeting at Clontarf to the 16th of September next, the day of their discharge from prison.—(Hear, hear.) The Committee in the mean time would confer together and consider the best way of celebrating the 30th of May, because they could not allow that day to pass over without marking it with white.— (Cheers,) The Hon. Gentleman next brought forward and read a report on the Bill for the perpetual endowment of May nooth. The Committee, after giving an abstract of the Bill, stated their opinion to be, that it was framed in a just and conciliatory spirit, and offered no matter of doubt or diffi culty to any Roman Catholic, however suspicious he might have been made by the conduct of the present or any former Government. .They also expressed their belief that, circumstanced as the country is with its ecclesiastical and State revenues, originally granted for Roman Catholic purposes, it was no infringement of the voluntary principle to receive by way of restitution the means of educating the Catholic clergy, especially when tendered in so satisfactory and conciliatory a manner. Mr. O'Connell said that he was most anxious to have this Bill universally read and under stood, to enable every Irishman to judge whether it was an enactment which he, as a Catholic, o ught to accept, and also whether it contained anything derogatory to civil or re ligious freedom. It appeared to him that it contained no thing of the kind. There was to be no interference of Pro testants with education in the College ; an d this was exactly- what he desired. He conceded to Protestants the right of pursuing their own course of education, and he asked the sam e permission for Catholics for their children and clergy. —Wear, hear.) He had been asked wh y he did not advise that petitions in favour of the Bill should be got up, as it d e emed so good a measure. He was ready with his answer,l% which was this—that they had not asked for the 13111, it was entirely the voluntary act of the Government.— (Hear, hear.) The Irish people would not stoop to as k for when millio ns were owing s uch a trifle.---(hear, hear.) to them, they would not beg for a penny in the pound. (Hear, hear.) They had not, therefore, asked for this Bill, but they would cheerfully accept it if it were passed. He repeated that he was very grateful for the Bill, and he had no notion of being stingy et' his thanks, as he certainly was not of vituperation of those who deserved censure, The Bill had its use too in another respect—namely, the enabling what the real dispositionof them to ascertain of England towards this country was.—(Near, hear.) He had a species of unpleasant gratification in seeing verified what he had often stated—that the people of England had not the heart in the right place when they came to deal with Ireland.—(Hear, hear.) He was once in the habit of using the term " Saxon," when speaking of the English people, and he had often accused them of illiberality and bad feeling towards the people of this country, but lie was told that it was the Government, and not the people of England, which was adverse to Ireland. He had abandoned the use of the obnoxious phrase, and tried the language of conciliation, but what did they now see? They saw the Government acting in a friendly manner towards this coun try, and the people of England rising in masses against. them.—(Hear.) A f r i en d w h o h ad just returned from Lon don told him he never remembered to have witnessed so much excitement there as at present. "No Popery" pla cards and advertisements were encountered at every turn, and the abuse of Irish Catholics which they contained was read with applause by the groups of people attracted by them.—(Hear, hear.) Yes, the people of England were taking a strong part against this country. Who was not aware, that if they had not been always hostile to Ire land, she could not have been left so long in her present abject condition ; but, proud and bigoted as were their Eng lish neighbours (and they might well be proud of having such a people as the Irish for their slaves), they would not continue to be their slaves.—(Loud cheers.) He bad been told that he ought not to accept money from Eng lish Protestants for Catholic purposes, and had been called on to assert the principle of every denomination of Chris tians paying its own ministers. He was quite ready to adopt the principle to the fullest extent, but he wanted others to do so likewise. The Protestant clergy who opposed the present Bill on the pretext of its being a violation of principle, forgot that they were silent respecting the grant of 9,0001. a year, which they bad not opposed, and that they' continue silent respecting the Regium donum of the Presby terians, and the grants to religious communities in Scotland. Why were not these grants opposed, and why had such an outcry been raised against the grant of a suitable endowment for Maynooth ? The truth was, they hated them as Irish men, and were bigoted against them as Catholics.—(Hear, hear.) The Times spent three years in abusing the Catholic clergy and people, and raised the people of England to such a pitch of exasperation against the Ministry for favouring the Irish people, that they rose at length and turned out the Whigs. It was idle, therefore, to talk of favour to this coun try from England, and he was not sorry for their hate. He would run no race of petitions with them—if necessary, he could have millions of signatures to one. He would ask nothing, but he would take the boon gratefully as it was given graciously.—(Hear, hear.) The lion. Gentleman next proceeded to repel the charges recently made against the College of Maynooth, and asserted that out of 15,000 students who since its foundation had been edu cated there, not a single one had be en c h arge d w i t h an offence of a n y kind. He next eulogised the presidents and professors of the College, and enumerated several distin guished Roman Catholic clergymen who had filled those situations. When there was no stain either on the students or the professors it was too bad that the provision of a suit able maintenance for them should be the signal for an exhi bition of fiendish bigotry on the part of the English people. Shame on them for envying Ireland sixpence in the pound of her just debt. There was their conscience, their honour, their honesty He was glad th a t h e himself had taken the offer in the spirit he had met it with. Of course, if the Catholic clergy had condemned it, or refused it, he would have joined them ; but as they had been silent he took it for granted that they approved of it. Had they objected to the Bill, he himself would have moved that it be kicked eut of the House; but he was most happy in stating that Sir Robert Peel had consulted the Catholic authorities in the most open and generous manner on the subject. He had been accused of a factious disposition to refuse everything from the present Government, no matter how good the mea sure offered might be ; but he rejoiced that the present Bill gave them an opportunity of showing what their true spirit was. lie hoped it would be well received throughout Ire land ; but as to its being a bribe to the clergy, be defied those who thought so, and equally so those who believed it would have the effect of making them relax in their efforts to regain natioual independence.—(Loud cheers.) The Hon. Gentle man concluded by moving that the report be adopted and printed for circulation. Mr. T. STEELE addressed the meeting on the same subject. Mr. H. Gnitrrax, M.P., said, that the people of England had declared war on the Irish people by their conduct in re ference to the Maynooth grant, and he had learnt a lesson within the last forty-eight hours which he might forgive but would never forget. He took his leave of the "gentlemen of England ;" he wished them no ill, but so help him God he would never willingly draw a sword in their behalf or give them a guinea of his money.—(Loud cheers.) They had covered their country, their cause, and their Parliament with a disgrace which they could never remove.—(Cheers.) The motion was then adopted, after a few remarks from Mr. J. O'Connell, M.P. Mr. O'CONNELL announced the receipt of 2501. from Bos ton, from Philadelphia 451., and from Illinois 100/. Mr. G. PORTER addressed the meeting at considerable l m en e g nd th ed in th su e ppo o r t t ab o l f is h h i m s e p n e t cul o i f ar a v view watioannald strongl y militia i r n eco t rn hi; country. Mr. O'CONNELL agreed with Mr. Porter that a national militia would be extremely advantageous, if sanctioned by Parliament and constructed according to constitutional prin ciples. He then brought forward a long report on the sub ject of the tenant-right in Ulster, upon which he commented at considerable length. The rent for the week was stated to be 700/. 4s. 11d.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN SlR,—Amidst all the great schemes afloat for the im provement of railway communication throughout the country, the public attention appears to have rather overlooked the vast changes which are going on in the important tract of country having Chester for its centre. A new and powerful community is establishing itself on the western shores of the river Mersey, whose rising city " Birkenhead" is at once the wonder of the age and the nucleus of a commercial revolution which has no parallel even amosgst the enterprising people of the United States. Birkenhead now comprises more popu lation, more wealth, and more elements of grandeur, than most of our oldest and most favoured cities. With all the advantages of Liverpool, as regards the commerce of the world, it also possesses the same communication with Manchester and Yorkshire, and a better commu nication with Birmingham and all the south, being about 10 to 15 miles nearer, as far as land carriage is concerned. This rising community of giants will soon possess the most spacious docks in the kingdom, and it is idle to doubt their success—the very constitution of the company "ensures" success! Low charges, great accommodation and facility, and an ultimate emancipa tion of all charges whatever, will and must eomnrand an immense trade as long as the river Mersey bears on her waters the commercial navies of the world! This, then, is the keystone of the vast structure of traffic to which your attention is called. This new port, and these new docks of Birkenhead will ere long possess some of the elements of the Liverpool greatness. The communica tion by the river is safer and more convenient than on the Liverpool side, as it is sheltered from the westerly gales, and possesses the best anchorages. An influential body of Manchester manufacturers is interested in the success of the scheme, and will transfer much of their business thither, 0 escape the great expenses of cartage, porterage, dock dues, and the exorbitant charges for fire insurances now prevalent in Liverpool. Not that the commerce of Liverpool is likely to be much affected by such transfer, since the accumulating trade of the Mersey is becoming more and more developed, and the greater the facilities offered on its shores, no matter whether on the eastern or western, must tend to the in crease and permanence of that flourishing commerce. From Birkenhead there is a railway to Chester, and the merchandise and passengers brought by the vessels and steamers which will find accommodation in the docks will be conveyed by rail through a tunnel to the main line, without delay or expense, which is quite a new and a most promising feature, whether as affecting the_pros perity of the do c k s or th e ra il ways concerned. Eight miles from Birkenhead (at Hooton) the Manchester railway will diverge from the Chester and Birkenhead line, and a little further on (at Sutton) it is probable that a short line will ere long be projected to Queen's Ferry for the Welsh traffic. At Chester this important little trunk joins a collection of other railways %hi& are destined in a few years to be the tributaries to it, and the natural channels fur the great flow of traffic which this combination of facilities will create. On the west is the great Holyhead line, which under the foster ing patronage of Government will have a large convey ance of troops, mails, passengers, &c., besides the pro bable accession of summer traffic by parties visiting the beauties of Wales or the sea coast. Next to the Holy head line, though not inferior in importance, is the North Wales Mineral Railway, which falls into the former at a mile or two from Chester, and will bring on the Bir kenhead line an immense quantity of coals, minerals, &c., the value of which is almost incalculable. In coal alone it computed that an export trade will be rea lized, sufficient to pay a fair dividend on the different railways concerned. The next important railway bear ing on Chester is the projected Shrewsbury, Oswestry, and Cheshire Junction, one of the most promising little lines in the kingdom. Its cost will be extremely small, arid taking its rise at Shrewsbury with a branch at Os westry. it will join the Mineral Railway at or near Wrexham, and thus bring the districts south of Shrews bury into direct communication with Chester. The next line at Chester is the Chester and Crewe, a branch of the Grand Junction falling into the main trunk at Crewe. This line, however, is of secondary importance, it having hitherto been kept virtually closed by the con servative policy of the Grand Junction Company, whose desire has been to prevent any traffic leaving their main line on the Lancashire side to swell the receipts of the Cheshire Railways. It is said also that their policy has been to depreciate the Birkenhead Railway as much as possible, in order to acquire it on easy terms, but by a mere fortuitous circumstance this object has been de feated. Another line projected at Chester, is the Chester and Preston Brook, which is only in embryo, but bears a high premium in the market. Thus the converging of so many railways at Chester bids fair to make that city the keystone of the traffic with Ireland, North Wales, Birkenhead, Birmingham, &c., and from the great saving of distance, the cheapness of the lines, and the great natural advantages of the country, there can be no doubt that it will tend materially to the public advantage. Another similar knot of railways will, ere long, pro bably, converge at Shrewsbury, a town admirably situ ated for " through" traffic. The line already mentioned (the Shrewsbury, Oswestry, and Cheshire Junction) con nects that town with the North Wales Mineral Railway, from which it will receive supplies of coal, &c., for the South, and by its means will bring the Birkenhead, North Wales, and Irish' traffic, in: a straight line to Shrewsbury. From thence, a railway, already pro jected, and approved by the Board of Trade, will con tinue this important line of communication to Dudley, Wolverhampton, and Birmingham. Thus a direct and cheap communication will be formed between Birming ham and Liverpool, vin Shrewsbury, Chester, and Bir kenhead, the value of which can only be estimated by regarding the value cf. the Grand Junction Railway. Another line from Shrewsbury is projected by the Grand Junction Company, but as it offers no public advan tages, and is evidently dictated by the spirit of Conser vatism, to preserve traffic which is seeking a more di rect and advantageous route, it is not likely to be per , severed in, and is discountenanced by the Board of Trade. Other lines, however, will hereafter, no doubt, be made south of Shrewsbury, to connect the important traffic from Coalbrookdale, Shiffnell, Bridgnorth, Kid derminster, &c., with Ireland and Liverpool, and thus the districts which surround Shrewsbury and Chester will probably, ere long, acquire all the importance and development which their position and natural advantage& are capable of. There is, perhaps, no feature in t h e present aspect of railway affairs of such paramount im portance as this one. A new state of things is dawning on these districts, and a very few years will elapse, p ea _ bably, before these vast schemes and expectation, ant realised, in the creation of a new and lucrative traffic) which will tend to enrich those parts of the country, be sides adding to the national wealth, as well as the public convenience. _ I am yours, respectfully, concourse of person s assembled at t► le RACING AT WALWORTH.-1‘10; s lver cup.

The stakes were 251. aside. At the start Seaward took the lead, and cleared the hurdles very admirably, closely pursued by his quadruped opponent, when, after a strenuously contested race, Seaward came in the winner. FOOT-RACE AT WINDSOR.—A foot-race, for 101. aside, came off' yesterday afternoon, in the sew -road, Windsor. between a celebrated runner, named Morton, of the Royal Horst Guards (Blue) and " Young Pridie," of provincial fame, ao inhabitant of the town. The distance, 200 yards, was performed in twenty.two seconds by Morton, who beat his opponent by only three yards.
