THE GREAT Esmurnom.—Notwithstanding the
very bad weather which prevailed during the greater part
of yesterday, the Crystal Palace was visited by about 48,000
penoma
THE GALWAY RAILROAD AND AMERICAN Ma-
itittlans.—lt is understood that the Lord-Lieutenant has
expiated his readiness to attend at the inauguration of the
railroad to Galway, on theist of August ; and the Advocate,
which makes this announcement, adds that it is in contem-
plation to solicit her Majesty's presence on the auspicious
occasion. The railway company will have preparations
made for the conveyance of the passengers of the North
America, on her amvsl, with the utmost speed to Dublin;
and should that vessel make the voyage, as it is expected,
in eight days, there is no reason, although the railway will
not be completed throughout in time for the occasion, why
her passengers may not he in the Crystal Palace within the
ninth day after leaving Ncw York.
LANC.ASIIIRE, CilesnutE, AND STAFFORDSHIRE
RAILWAT.—In the report of the proceedings in this matter
yesterday the name of the solicitor to the company should
have been Burdett, and not Bradley.
ESCAPE OF FIVE CONVICTS.—About 2 o'clock on
Wednesday afternoon five convicts Irionging to the Jus-
titia, convict-ship, at the Royal Arss nal, Woolwich, were
employed in the gig of the vessel in taking on hoard Cap-
tain Voules, who was on a visit of inspection. The convicts
generally employed on that duty arc selected from the
well-conducted class, and consist of men whose general
good conduct would soon ensure their liberation, and con-
sequently greater confidence is placed in them. In this
ease the confidence has been found to be misplaced, as
shortly after Captain Voules went on board, and the con-
victs were lying on their oars lit readiness to take him on
shore again, the idea of escaping entered their imagination,
and o-e of them enveloped himself iu the do ik of the gal-
lant officer, and, taking charge of the rudder, the other
four convicts rowed with great sp rd, and soon reached the
Essex side of the river, where they landed and left the gig,
making the best of their way isnot Barking for Epping
Pored. In their progress they came near a constable of the
K division of the metropolitan police, who immediately
Save chase, and having obtained the aid of several of the
inhabitants of the district, succeeded in apprehending three
of the escaped convicts. The other two have not been
taken. The attention of one of the Custom-house boats
was drawn to the rapidity of the rowing of the four con-
victs when making for the Essex shore, bat the self-con-
fidence of the convict steersman enveloped in Capt. Voules's
cloak prevented them from following the gig. They, how-
ever, made the circumstance known on board the convict
ship, bat any pursuit from that quarter after the escaped
convicts had got on shore and some way into the country
would have had little chance of success.
