The town of Harwich is 68 miles from London by railway, and its port is the most convenient for direct communication, between London and all the great seaports in Holland and Belgium, and thence to the northern and central parts of the 4 katinent of Europe. Passengers proceeding to India via Trieste, by Harwich, rotterdam, and the Dutch-Rhenish Railway, will effect a saving of 48 hours, as compared with the route via Marseilles; the line from Rotterdam to Trieste being on the eve of com pletion without a break. The harbour of liarwich is safe, commodious, and easy of access in all weathers and states of the tide—advantages .which no other port possesses on the eastern coast south of The Humber. By the opening of this route via Harwich the dangers and delays of the intricate navigation of the Swin and the mouth of the River Thames are avoided, whereby a saving of time is effected to Hamburgh, Rotterdam, and Antwerp of from 10 to 11 hours ; whilst the route to Oberhausen and thence to the northern parts of Europe is four hours and a quarter less by Rarwich and Rotterdam than that by Dover and Ostend, as per tabular statement, and thus the former must become the direct route of postal communication.

The com mittee met this morning and adjourned until the 27th of March, upon which day they would be ready to hear the petitioners, or any other persons who might come forward to give evidence, or assist the committee in any wsy. Toe following are the names of the select cmunittee :—The Lord Cherie. Mir, the Lord Privy Seal, Earl Stanhope, Earl of Carnarvon, Ea-1 Grey, _Lord LyttElion,,Lord Lyndhurst, Lord Brougham, Lord Campbell, Lord Overstone, Lord St. Leonards, Lord Wensleydale, and Lard Belper. THE . MURRAIN IN FOREIGN CATTLE Lord POLWARTa asked the Goeerninent whether they had received any information on the subject of the alleged existence of the murrain amongst the cattle in certain pans of Germany; and if whether any measure had . bren taken to prevent its being cominut:icated to the cattle of this country. Lord STANLEY of .A LDEB,LEY said the Go vernment had not received any official infur matiou on the subject, but having her:rd of the report the Foreign-office hid fur v. arded instructions to the consuls at the difkr,fnt ports of the continent to communicate immodiat 1., , all the infurna tion they posse=sed on the sulject. (IL-ar.) Tne Mard of Customs were emp )wered to inspect all cattle imported into this country, and to destroy sll such as might be found to be diseased. Their lordships then adjourned.

SIR J. M'NEIL AND COL. TULLOCII. Mr. PALK gave notice that on going into committee of supply on the arniy e-timates he should cal attention to' the report of Sir J. M‘Neil and Col. Tulloch, and move a resolution thereon. EDUCATION. Mr. HADFIELD asked the right lion. Sir J. Pak ington whether he would Bring on the second reading of the Education Bill on Wednesday mit, being► s-cond in the paper of that day, or w••ul•l allow timo tor cities and boroughs, or the ratepayers thereof proposed to be affected by it, to consider its intended enactments ? Sir J. PAKINGTON said it wea his full intent'on to move the second rending of the Education Bill, unloss the previous order of the day occupies the whole or greater portion cf the day, which be thought uuldcfly. The bi!l being permissive in its operation, the cities an I boroughs would suffer no injustice from as being read a second time that day. BANKRUPTCY, &c LAWS. Mr. CROSSLEY asked the Attorney-General if it was the intention of the Government to introduce any measure during the present session to amend the Law of Bankruptcy, by which the present costs may be greatly lessened ? And, if it was the intention of the Govern ment to introduce any measure by which creditors, by means of deeds of assignment, which should not as at pre sent be deemed acts of bankruptcy, might be enabled by themselves to wind up insolvent estates The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that the Govern ment bad no intention ot bringing in a b.ll this session to lessen the costs ot proceedings in bankruptcy. The Go vernment had under consideration a b:11 with reference to winding up snob estates as that referred to by the hon. member. ARCTIC EXPEDITION MEDALS. Admiral WALCOTT asked tha Vitst Lord of the Admiralty whether, as it was believed some objection seemed to be made to granting clasps to those who were to receive the Arctic Expedition medals according to the number of times they bad served in the Polar ftegionß, he would have any objection to bare the number of times stamped on the bar of the medal in lieu of ciavps. Sir C. WOOD said tkat sineo the ann.,nocernent of granting an Arctic medal, applications were made for medals for the Antarctic Expedition, and also for the Niger expedition, which the Government had no inten tion to give. A gallant officer had caiLd on the Achill.; ralty, and inquired if a medal and bars were to be given for each voyage and number of years, because if so, he was entitled to nine medals and 20 clasps. He (Sir C. Wood) thought the Govern ment had gone too far towards diininisl.rinc; the value of inedals—(hear, hear)-- - -and thought the case of this offi cer a reductio ad absurdarn, and that to give so many medals to one person would be ridiculous. The Go vernment had decided on only giving one medal irre spective of the number of voyages or years engaged. EDUCATION (SCOTLAND). Mr. E. LOCKHART asked the Lord Advocate if he had any intention to introduce a measure on the sub ject of education in Scotland, or for regulating the sa hries of the parish schoolmaster, The LORD-ADVOCATE said he cmild not give a definite answer till Monch.y. DESTITUTE SOLDIERS' WIVES AND FAMILIES. In reply to Sir J. TYRRELL, Mr. PEEL said he hoped to be able to produce Gen. Gascoigne's report relative to the destitution of soldier.' wives and families at Colchester on !Monday. COMMISSARIAT STORES-SARDINIA. Lord WILLIAM GRAHAM asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he would lay on the table a re turn of the amount repaid by the Sardinian Government for Commissariat Stores supplied durin4 the war ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that tho question was still under adjustment. The amount claimed by this country from the Sardinian Go vernment was 17,0001. ; Sardinia admitted 15,0001. The diffe:ence of 2,0001. was still under consideration. THE IRISH CONSTABULARY. Mr. CONOLLY asked the Chief Sz , cret.try for Ire land, wht ther it was the intention of the Government to bring in a bill for the re-distribution of te Irish consta bulary with reference to the area and population of the counties of Ireland ? Mr. HORSMA.N said it was the intention of the Government to bring in such a measure this session. (Hear, hear.) COL. TULLOCH AND PERSIA. Mr. LAYARD asked the First Lord of the Treasury if it was true that at the end of last week the Govern ment made an offer of 1,0001. each to Sir J. M'Neil and Ca. TuPoch as an acknowledgment of their service 4, and if these gentlemen did not indignantly refuse the offer. (gear.) 'Re wished to ask also if the noble lord had received any information relative to the treaty be tween Russia and Persia, to which he (11r. Layard) called the attention of the Government last week ; and also whether it was true that the negotiations with Per sia were completed, and when Cie papers would be pro duced. (Hear, hear.) Lord •PALMIISTON said it wag true that the Government made an offer of 1,0001. each to Sir J. M'Neil and Colonel T,ullocb, and that they had refused it, but not indignantly, as had been stated by tl a hon. member. With regard to the treaty he had made enquiries of the Russian Minister at this Court and also (,f the Minister for Foreign Affairs, and in the words of the Russian Ambassador, "the whole was a fable." The Persian negotiations were st il l g oin g o n , and under the circumstances he hoped the hon. member would not press for the production of the papers. THE LAND TRANSPORT CORPS. Sir J. FERGUSSON asked the Under-Secretary for War whether it was inten ded to giv3 the officers of the Land Transport Corps, whose services were no l onger required, any ball - pay or pension ; and whether that half-pay would be on the sa me scab as that giv en t o ffi yen; 4 corre sponding rank in other branches of the ser vice General CODRINGTON bore testimony to the ex cellent conduct of these officers, and the advantages of the Land Trasport Corps in the Crimea. Alter some remarks from Sir Da LACY EVANS, Mr. F. PEEL entered into the formation of this col ps, and stated that when they came home they re mained upon full pay for some time. Since the corps had been broken up all the officers but 20 or 25 had been a ppointed to a new military train that had been orga nised ; that with regard to those who could not be em ployed application had been made to the Treasury for a scale of allowance for them higher than that to which they were entitled, which had been granted. It was a difficult thicg how to deal with these officers, be cause they had been taken from the ranks, and from the period of aervici, there was difficulty in promoting them, as they now ranked as officers. THE MURRAIN. Mr. STAFFORD again called the attention of the house to the cattle disease on the continent. Mr. LOWE said that the subject did not come within his department, and he could give no other answer as to the measures that had been taken to prevent its spreading over this country. If the hon. gentleman would give him notice of what he really wanted he would do his beat to give him the informa tion. Lord NAAS informed the house that all the [PRICE 4D. STAMPED 5D c - ntioEntal dales had prohibit e d th e i in p rtation of \ catt'e from the diseased districts, and c)htentica that the Government ought to ad pt a similar precaution. He teminded the house that in 1745, when they had the cattle disease in this country, it lasted eight years. It then arose from the importation of two diseased cattle, and they. were yesterday Unformed that a diseased calf imported from Amsterdam bad been destroyed on the Thames. Mr. PACKE addressed the house on this important subject. It affected not only the breeders and feeders of castle, but the consumer also. Lord PALMERSTON said that inquiry should be made relative to the disease, and that precautionary measures should be adopted. An HON. MEMBER said that he understood the disease was in this country. He bad heard of a person who bad lost 29 head of cattle out of a herd of 60. After some fuitber remarks from Sir J. TYBELL, The subject dropped. CRIMEAN MEDALS. Colonel GILPIN asked the Under-Secretaty for War when the medals were to be distributed to the families of the British soldiers who died in the Crimea ? He understood that GOO of the families of the Grenadiers a'orie bad not had their med,ds. Mr. FREDERICK PEEL said that the distribution wouli shortly be completed. CHINA—ADJOURNED DEBATE. The adjourned debate was .resumed by Mr. S. WARREN, who said. that the motion was now disembarrassed from the second branch of it that embairassed hon. members last night. He liokeduponitas a momentous question, and tie could assure the house that, he did not consider it a party question. The Go vernment having identified itself with the matter before the house, it was right there ,shoull be no misunder standing on it. After referring to the paragraph in her Majesty's gracious speech in reference to China, which statel that the insult s , & c ., o f t h e Chi nese h ad been met by her Msjesty's representatives with forbearance, he asked where was the forbear ance alluded to, because it was impossible to discover, it in the blue books that bad been presented to the House. He had no fau , t to find with the British army dr navy in Cuina—(hear, hear)—and with refer ence to S r J. Bowring, he said that what he had done had been done as a flimsy pretext for carrying into effect long cherished notions—(hear, hear)—and added that he (ILI not consider that Sir J. Bow ring would have done it" without be was rerfect:y certain that he was acting with the full knowledge of the authorities at home, and that his conduct would be rati fied by the home authorities. (Hear.) He should abstain from the legat part of the argument, that having been exhausted by noble lords in another place. He con curred in the epigrammatic and terse description given by the learned member for Sheffield some nighta since of - the mode of conducting business in this house, for they were told they were too soon, and would interfere with negotiations, or were too late in endeavouring to obtain information from Government r. lstis e to the state of important mat ters connected with peace or war. He considered they were at war under circumstances (not to use a figu rative expression) at which humanity shuddered. The bon". gentleman then proceeded to consider whether or not the Chinese had given occasion for this war, and said that he challenged the Attorney-General to dis prove the lsw relating to this case, as had been laid down in another place. (LEFT SPELICING.) EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY. MEETING THIS DAY. This afternoon the half-yearly meeting of this com pany was held at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate street ; Mr. Ralph Waters, Chairman of the Board of • D;rcctors, in the chair. Tne rep , rt and statement of accounts, already pub lished in The Sun, were taken as read. The CHAIRMAN in moving the adoption of the report said he had much plaasure in congratulating the meet ing that they had no oi better prospects before them. Everything had - been done, during the byegone half year, for the benefit of the company, so far as devising schemes and plans for that purpase. The directors might have erred—doubtless they had on some particu lar points—but everything had been done by the direc tors to benefit the proprietors of this great company. (Loud cheers.) in - moving the adoption of the report he did so with great pleasure, inasmuch as it exhibited to them a great deal more information than had ever bean presented to them before at any pre vious half-ye;rly meeting--(hear, hear)— atid lie told them that ao far as he knew and believed the report he held in his hand contained " the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth." (Cheers.) The hon. gentle man then referred to the accounts. The gross earnings of the company for the half-year bad been 77,8561., and the sharelitflers would see from the accounts that those receipts bad been well applied. Tne charges on the debit side of that account showed 374,332/. 16s. 3d., leaving 343,5281. 12s. sd. for divi-ion viz., Rtstern Counties Railway 5-74,11, 245,374/. sd. ; Norfak, 1-7 , h 49,074/. 161. "; and the Eastern Union I.7th 49,074/. 16s. The reduction of expenses during the half year had engaged the earnest consideration of the directors, and with that view they had abolished the office of treasurer, as being unnecessary, and the direc tors were t.lio of opinion that it would be to the interest of the shareholders that an amalgamation should take place. (jiear, hear.) The capital accouni. Lad increased, but not to the extent that might have been expected last half-year. By abolishing the office of treasurer, and appointing a cashier a saving had been effected, and a more efficient check had been introduced, The hon, gentleman . next referred to the alterations in troduced in the management of the line, and said in con sequence of what bad occurred, he bad examined the register of bhares, and he was happy to say that he had found everything correct. (Hear, bear.) He next alluded to the permanent way de partment, which was being put into an efficient state, and in reference to passenger fares and season tickets re-echoed the paragraphs in the report in regard to it, observing that the inconvenience complained of by many gentlemen was necessary, it having been found that one person had travelled for 17 months over the hne with an old season ticket. He then went through the various paragraphs in the report ac to stones, coal traffic, &c., and with reference to the latter said that every person using the l'ne should be placed on the same footinc , as regaried charges. (Hear ) In conclusion he referred' to the East Suffolk Railway Bill now before Parliament, and in speaking of the London, Harwich, and Continental Steam Packet Company, referred to it in encouraging terms, and assured the meeting that what the directors had done with reference to that company, had been dono with a view to benefit the Eastern Rail way shareholders.

We understand there is a project, supported by very influential naives, under the above title, for establishing a telegraph to India in continuation of the system of tele gr-aphs decided on by the English Government for the Mediterranean, and which is to terminate at Alexandria. The proposal is to lay a number of wires across Egypt and down the Red Sea to Aden, whence they will run parallel to the south coast of Atabia and terminate at Kurrachee, to which the Indian telegraphs extent'. C•'mpfete powers have been very lately obtained from the Ottoman and Egyptian Governments for the above pur pose, and the conditions secure complete independent action on - the part of the company of the governments through whose territory the line is to pass, and are in every respect most favourable. The stations ate so chosen that 490 statute miles is to be thegreatest distance between any two of them, and they will be at places where there is a military fore, such as Kosseer and Jeddah, or on British territ ry, as Aden and the Kooria Mooria Is lands lately ceded to us, or on the territory of the Imium of Muscat, who is our close ally, at Rasil Hadd. The Red Sea is the regular commercial route, it free from any danger of interruption, and our influence on it has been so long and•so completely established that, irre spective of the security afforded by the stations them selves, no possible danger of interruption can arise. Our steamers will be able to receive and send instantaneous news at Aden and Suez. Complete charts and soundings, taken under the orders of the Eist India Company, exist all the way from Suez to Kurrachee, and across Egypt a railway and highway exist, so that the only thing to be done is to manufacture the cable in England, and then to lay it in latitudes where the winds are temperate and steady ten months of the year, taking as a guide the existing soundings. The proposed line will excite no political jealousies, and the cost of protection may be said to be nil. The communication from Kurrachee to Alexandria will, by means of relay batteries, be instantaneous. — Daily News. BIRTHS.
