RAILWAY EXTENSION IN EGYPT.

Yesterday afternoon a deputation waited on Earl ,
Russell at the Foreign-office, Whitehall-gardens, far the
purpose of urging upon his lordship the propriety of rant-
mg the sanction of the British government to the car-
et:ruction of • line of railway through Egypt to Rom Besse, •
port on the Red Sea. The deputation consisted of Sir
Herbert Maddock, Sir R. Chita', Bart., M.P., Admiral Sir
Edward Belcher, Mr. Oliveira, Mr. F. Ayrtoo. of Cairo,
Mr. Sedgwick, Mr. Staunton, Kr. Efeneags,Mr. James Ash-
bury, lir. S. Isaacs, Mr. Maher, Mr Joseph Cabin, C.E,
Mr. J. Wright, C.E., Mr. Latimer Clark, C.E., Mr. Hayes,
Mr. Harder, Mr. James Arland, and Mr. Manby.
Mr. Ouvarita, who introduced the deputation, stated
that when in Egypt some months ago be had waited on the
Prime Minister of the Viceroy respecting the proposed
scheme, but he seemed averse to taking it op, on the ground
that the British government took no interest in it. On his
return to England he bad communicatee. this to its pro-
moters, and the result had been the present depu-
tation, who had come to his lordship in order
to ascertain the views of the British govern-
ment respecting it. There could be no question
that the scheme if carried out 'would be of the greatest
advantage to this country, for the proposed line of
railway would shorten the overland rout* to India by two
days, while it would lead to a large production of the finest
cotton in the valley of the Nile, and would otherwise be the
means of creating en influence favourable to English policy
and enterprise in Egypt. He had no hesitation is saying
that the latter was au object much to be desired, for at
present the French influence and Freoch policy were very
much in the ascendant there.
Sir HERBERT MADDOCK also supported the scheme, and
pointed out the great advantage it would confer on this
country in improving the means of their communication
with India, which were at the present time in that pert of
the world most imperfect and inconvenient.
Earl Roseau. at once admitted that to be the aim. He
also had no doubt that the scheme, if carried out, would
improve the communication with India ; but the question
was how were they to carry it oot,and what expectations had
they of assistance from the Viceroy. It was necessary to
know that, because the last communication they had from
the British consul at Alexandria was to the effect that the
Viceroy would have nothing to do with it, and that he com-
plained of the expense entailed upon him by the Suez line.
Sir HERBERT MADDOCK said they did not ask the Viceroy
for his money, nor even for his guarantee, though of course
they would have to get the laud from him ; but it was con-
sidered that a favourable expression of opinion by the Bri-
tish government as to the propriety of the line might have
a good effect in hastening on its accomplishment.
Mr. F. Arms bore his testimony to the effect which
the railway system, so far as it had progressed, had pro-
duced in enhancing the value of property, as he knew of
land which previously could not have told for li. per acre
now selling for 201. and 7.31. per acre.
Mr. LATIMER CLARK stated that he bad surveyed the
whole of the line, and he never saw one which would be
easier of construction. Along the valley of the Nile the
ground was of course les el, but through the desert the wind
had blown the gravel and sand into the valleys among the
hills, which had nearly raised them to • level, so that along
the whole line there would not be an embankment required
above four or five feet high.
Earl Bustin'. said he could only say to the deputation
that the government thought well of the proposal, but that
they did not at present see how the hoe was to be
constructed.
The deputation, after thanking his lordship for his cour-
tesy in seeing them, then withdrew.

Tow= Hantrra DISPENSARY.—The triennial
festival of this charity took place at the London Tavern, on
Wednesday evening, June 24, under the presidency of Vie-
count Enfield, M.P. From the report, it appeared that ,
since the commencement of the isatitution in 1792, up-
wards of 127,000 persons bad been melted, the numbers
being, in 1860, 3,767, at an expense of 4421. 4s. ; in 1861,
4,622, at an expense of 4931. 9e. 3d. ; and in 1862, 4,136,
at an expense of 4111.105. 3d. The parishes benefited b/S
operations of the dispensary are those of St. George's
Stepney, Limebouse, Poplar, Madsen, Ratchff,
Wapping, containing 187,000 people, the vest majority of
whom are of the poorest clam. The Chairman enforced
the claims of the charity on the company present io an
able address, and referred to the large amount of good
effected at so small an outlay, each cue coating very little
more than 2s. The other speakers, including the Revs, G.
H. R. Lee, and W. MYlall, and T. Baker, Esq., me-
massively pleaded the claims of the institution on the sera-
pathy of the wealthier classes. The same ankeeribed, in-
cluding a munificent dooation of 1001. from the Marquis of
Westminster, amounted to about 6001.

PRIVATI BILL LEt?ISLATION.

The report of the select committee of the
Hones of Commons on private bill legislation was
issued from the parliamentary paper-office this morn.
Mg. Among the resolutions speed to by the com.
mittee were the following :—" That a bill or bills
founded on the principle of the Clauses Candi.
dation Acta should be prepared, and if pontible
planed this session, for the farther consolidation of
the clauses usually 000tained in railway acts sad other
classes of private seta. That a bill be prepared and brought
in for enabling new and existing railway companies, on
compliance with conditions to be contabsed therein, such
compliance to be certified by a department, to make new
lime of railway sod new railway works, when all parties
are consenting, and also for accomplishing the following
objects :—L Giving power to two or more compinies
to enter into mutual arrangements for the working or
use of their respective lines for limited periods.
2. Giving extension of time for the sale of superfluous lands
by railway companies. 3. Power for mixing farther capital,
with preferential dividends or otherwise, forZitirei off
existing lines. or for additional work', the ' of the
rightsof existing preference shareholders • secured.
That, considering the large discretion which must astiessa.
illy bevelled in any tribunal, however constituted, to which
may be entrusted the duty of reporting to the honed on
=stsprie bills, and the Anew d fined rake for the
el such trilismal, it is not expedited that this duty
should he performed otherwise than by eoumeittese ef the
house. That with a view desiring tbe expenseand lonise time
now occasioned by the double hearing of contested eases
13y committees of each house of parliament, an
asset ought to be come to by the two booms by whisk
single hearing might Ise made to serve the purpose of the
pretest doubts memny. That opposed bills having pared
through a committee of the House of Commons should be
dealt with ea unopposed bills in the House of Lords, and
vice vevsd, but that each house should, nevertheless, Mein
the power of referring any bill to a committee, if, from
special circumstances, that course should appear desirable.
That it is expedient that the number of members sondes
on private bill committees be reduced from five to three.
That, independently of the fees marked on the briefs when
delivered to the counsel, no further or other fees shall be
allowed on taxation than five guineas day as • refresher
for attendance, and two guineas a day for consultation.
That the payment of solicitors by means of fees on copies of
minutes of evidence and other documents, which entail no
labour upon them, is improper, and ought to be abolished.
That the scale of fees payable upon proceedings connected
with private legislation ought to be revised, sons to meet,
but not exceed, the expenses thrown upon the house by
the private business. That the system of charging
ad valorem fees on a male proportionate to the capftal
proposed to be raised by any private bill ought to be disc?).
tinned, and that there should be charged a uniform fee on
all private bills in their several Magee through the home.
That, with a view of deciding questions arising in privet*
bills by a more speedy and less expensive process than an
inquiry by • committee on opposed bills, it is expedient to
empower the Committee of Selection, sad the General
Committee of Railway and Canal Bills, with the consentof
all ;parties promoting and opposing, to refer the some
wholly, or with reference to particular clauses, to the
Chairman of she Committee of Ways sad Means, and that
such chairman, together with members to be appointed in
like manner as members of the Committee of Unopposed
Bills, should be empowered to beer the parties promoting
and opposing such bills, or their agents, and to report upon
the same to the home.

New ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH AT CHATHAM,—
A new Roman catholic church was opened for divine service
yesterday, by the Right Rev. Dr. Grant, Roman catholic
bishop. The church stands near the station of the Loudon,
Chatham, and Dover Railway, and though its external ap-
pearance is plain, being almost all brick, the interior is
handsome. The nave is 100 feet long by 50 feet wide ; there
are • centre and two side aisles and two lofty arcades of
five arches each. The architect is Mr. antis. The less
sung yesterday was that of Mozart, N 0.12, with ZingareUi'e
Laudate. There was full orchestral accompaniment. The
amnion was preached by the Very Rev. Dv, Manning, who
stated in his discourse that the catholic of Chatham had
long had only one very humble place of worship, but that
there was remota to expect (now that so important • step
had been taken) that there would be another opened before
long, for the catholic of the three towns numbered more
than 3,009.
GINERAL MINING ASSOCIATION.—Yesterday the
annual general meeting of the proprietors of this oompany
was held at the company's offices, Old Broad-street, Mr. A.
C. Bridge in the chair. The report of the directors stated
theses and shipments of coal had increased, but there had
been • very considerable loss in getting home the proceeds
from the United States, owing to the depreciation in the
currency. The sales and shipments of coal at all the col-
lieries amounting to 352,192 tote, but the net profits have
only realised 20,8021.. the loss on the remittance to this
country amounted t 029,159/. Adividend of 15s. per share was
paid in January 'sat, sod the prospect of demand for the
sal being amounting, the directors venture to announce a
further dividend of 10s. per share (free of income tax). for
which the warrants will be anted on July 18. The chair- •
man moved the adoption of the report. In answer to a
question it ws stated by • director that had there not been
the loss referred to in the report of 29,1591., sustained on
the remittances to this country, the profit for the year
would have amounted to nearly 50,0001. The report was
unanimously adopted. Mr. N. Gould sod Mr. H. Warr* were
re-elected directors ; Mr. W. I)igby Seymour was re-ap-
pointed auditor.
RAILWAY AND PUBLIC COMPANIES IN PARLIA-
RENT Yesterday the committee of the Commons threw
out the bill for the Blackburn, Chorley, and Wigan Rail-
way, which had been previously passed by the committee

Hemel Itempstecl and London and North Western ; Lon-
don and Brighton (new line at Croydon) ; end Osnos
Railways. In Mr. Maasey's committee the following
were passed :—Watford and Rickmansworth ; Dulas Valley
Railway ; Ok duns pton and Lidford ; and Merthyr, Tredegar,
and Abergavenny Railway.

little girl was drawing a smell four-wheeled carriage, in
which were two children. Leaving the cliff the girl,
it appears. drew the chaise on to the gap, and win in
the act of proceeding down the gap, when one of the
fore-wheels of the chaise ran off the boundary, the con-
sequence being that the chaise and the children were
precipitated to the batch beneath. Mr. Correll, an
officer of the Royal Humane Society, stationed at Kemp
Town, was fortunately near the spot, and immediately
went and picked up the two little creatures, and having
obtained the assistance of • gentleman suing the spot at
the time, conveyed them to the County Hospital. On ex-
amination at the hospital, it was found that, although the
little creatures had received a severe shaking, no bones were
broken. The cliff over which the chaise and its two occu-
pants were precipitated is about thirty feet in height, and
the wonder is how the two children escaped with their
lives.—West Muss Gazette.
THREZ DEATHS FROM LICIIITNING.-011 Wednes-
day lest Mr. Weller, a shopkeeper in Olynde, • small
village in East Sussex, accompanied by his wife and another
female, went to Brighton, about eleven miles distant, in a
light cart, to trisect some business. On their return in
the evening they were overtaken by the severe thunder-
storm that pravailed for several hours, and it is supposed
that the cart was struck by the electric fluid, and the three
inmates almost instantaneously killed, as their lifeless
bodies were discovered that same evening by • person who
was returning from Olynde to Levee.

It appears that Sir Joshua was proceeding, with a
friend, from his residence, the Elms, Parsoe's-green, Fulham,
towards his °Sloes in Parliament-street. They were both
seated on the outside of one of the Fulham omnibus's',
and when, at about 11 o'clock, the vehicle bad reached the
Haymarket, Sir Joshua complained of being unwell. It was
considered advisable to continue the journey to Charing-
cross, and, indeed, he expressed • desire to do so, but on
approaching Charing-cross, Sir Joshua fell backwards and
became insensible. He was immediately raised by
the outside passengers, lifted down, and con-
ducted to Hr. Starkie's, the chemist's at the

Sir Joshua Jebb was born i• 1793, and is therefore 70
years of age; and hie present wife is the daughter of the
second Earl of Chichester. He was appointed major in 1860,
after service in the Royal Engineers, in Canada, America, and
the West Indies. Latterly he has been more prominently

credible in the mode of life of the women who
made the dresses which came to oonrt. Some
of the particulars were too striking to be for-
gotten. We remember the long hours, when night
and day were run into one, during the season of
Drawing-rooms and on occasion of great funerals,
and how the lot of blindness fell on
a certain percentage of the makers of the
mourning, when any royal or widely connected
person died. We remember about the heated
rooms, and the long hours of gaslight, and the
fatigue of the bright colours ; and the stimulating
diet, the great meals of meat and porter to sustain
the strength for the crisis, and the strong green
tea, to prevent the inconvenient practice of drop-
ping off the chair asleep before eyes and fingers
could be let off duty. We remember how even
going to bed in the intervals, in the usual comfort-
able way, was a luxury out of reach, the sufferers
being unable to undress, unable to go to sleep in
any natural way, but obliged to sank down nine-
freahed into a stupor, more or less like what Mdme.
Eusz's workwoman died in last week. We re-
member the sensation excited at the time and for
some seasons afterwards, and the public meetings
on behalf of the dressmakers, and the anxiety
of the great West-end milliners to exculpate
themselves by statements of their own difficulties,
and the way in which much of the responsibility
was brought home to the ladies who were wont to
demand impossibilities in the way of speed in the
making of dresses. There was really a good deal
of contrition among the thoughtless, and a good
deal of influence brought to bear on them by the
more considerate, by which it was hoped that a
custom would grow up of allowing more time for
the making of the hundreds of dresses wanted for
• Drawing room, or for other great fetes of the
season. If not on those greatest and worst occa-
sions, it was hoped that the customers of the prin-
cipal establishments would distribute their less
important orders over weeks of less pressure.
Altogether, from what was heard, seen, and pro-
posed, from the public meetings, the special socie-
ties, the introduction of the sewing machine, and
the cessation of agitation on the question, we had
willingly hoped that the gay world of London bad
risen out of a depth of cruelty into which it could
never fall back. Yet what was the disclosure
of last week f On one day, Madame Eusx's name
stands in the account of an exquisite aristocratic
auction, as the purchaser of a partirc of lace, priced
at many hundreds of pounds ; and on another day
it comes out that her work women sleep in • dormi-
tory parcelled out into cella, where four sleep in
the two beds in each which occupy all the space.
When a victim dies, the only question is whether
it is over-work or want of air that has killed her,
or the combination of both. These are the things
that are happening twenty years after that
awakening which was to put an end to such enor-
mities for ever. What, then, is to be done I
The first thing always done is to denounce the
milliner on whose premises the catastrophe has

Beery Lawrence in the Aboo ebeircb, on which the words
are engraved—" As a pliant soldier, distinguished states-
man, and a true Christian philanthropist, his memory needs
no record. He was a warm friend to the British soldier,
for whose orphans and children in India he founded schools
at Busawsr sod Mount Aboo. Like institutions at Murree

subscription. In his last boar he dictated this epitaph—
' Here lies Henry Lawrence, who tried to do his duty.' "

daughter of Lord Lyndhurst, was solemnised the marriage
of Mr. Weetby Moore with Miss Fortson's', daughter of the

preceded it, was signalised by the presence of a nonagenarian
in the person of the venerable Lady Grenville, widow of the
statesman. Lord Grenville, contemporary with Pitt and
Burke and the other luminaries of that day. It is a remark-
able fact that the signature of this lady, who has attained
the great age of 92 years, immediately preceded that of Lord
