NEW RAILWAY CARRIAGE TOR THE QUEEN.

The London and North-Western Company have
provided, at • out of 3,000 t., a new carriage for the use of the
royal party. It it thus desenbed in the Observer :—" Exter-
nally the state carriage, with the exception of its very tasteful
and elaborate carving and decoration, does not much diffeg
in shape from the newly-designed first-class carriages
now in use on the line ; it to, however, larger
in every way. The framework upon which the body
of the carriage rests is coortructecl of solid oak, hand-
somely carved and highly polished, resting upon wheels
of Mansell's patent ; the centres are also composed of the
strongest solid oak, the tires of which have been pot on
cold, and hammered, as affording a greeter amount of
security than these manufactured under the ordinary pro-
cess. The carriagebody has three floors, first that of the
usual material. secondly • flooring of oak, and thirdly a
flooring of cork, which Lai the effect of reducing vibration
awl of destroying deadening to a groat extent the noise
• the wheels while travelling. At each corner of the solid
oak frame or buffer plank are projecting shoulders con-
sisting of elaborately carved and gilded leaves. The body of
the • has its panels painted of the beautiful dark
or royal colour, bearing in the centre the royal arms,
and ma the side panels the ceders of the Garter, the Bath,
and the Thistle, exquisitely painted, the upper portions of
the body round the windows being delicately picked out in
white and gold. The roofs, for there are two, are divided
by a cornice composed of festoons of flowers carved and
picked out upon a white ground, the projections of the roof,
the upper one of which is circular, having their projecting
edges elaborately gilt. The interval between the two root
is also perforated for ventilation. The interior of the royal
'skean presents • coup dmt coeobiaing the most refined
taste and elegance. The lining is of silver grey moire
antique of the richest description, festooned and fluted, the
Name material covering the roof, divided into panels marked
out by • rich cad of the same colour. From the apex
of the roof descends a beautifully constricted lamp of
very elegant deep, encircled by a carving of satinwood,
in which materiel the whole of the carvings are executed..
At one mid of the saloon is a sofa, covered with the emu
material as the lining of the carriage, and two easy chaise
are fixed on • revolving axis, so that, while they cannot be
upset, they can be moved in any direction at the will of the
m direct, party cramp • them with the greatest ease. Above the
cork floor described in the first instance has been
pieced • thick and this is covered over by a rich
velvet.pile carpet, ground colour of the royal purple,
with • lundsomely figured border, manufactured exproaly
for the saloon. At the other end is the retiring room, fitted
with • cabinet, wasithsedetand, and all the appliances of a
boudoir the carvings of the furniture being io unison with
those of the carriage, and executed in satinwood, inlaid
with tulipwood. An elegant axed table, of the same mate,
rial, stands in the centre of the saloon, which, eith the
mirror, gives the interior the appearance of a very elegant
little room. The sseeefary pocket. for the deposit of books,
papers, ke., ue appropriately arranged ; but, in addition
to this, there are aps for converting this magnificent
eiWntroore irate • apartment by means of • very
clever contrivance. Beds are introduced, which can be
removed with the greatest facility, and it is understood
they will be used by her Majesty and the Prince Consort
daring the journey on their return from Ireland to Scot-
land, thus avoiding the neesseity of staying • eight at any
hotel on the route. The whole carriage is believed to be
the most
on the
complete that hes ever been core
streaked ; on the designs being submitted to her Me
jade, ft is un that she expressed her moat cordial
append of them. There will be two other royal saloon
aerriages in the train, one for the princesses, and the other
for the Josenzeitale branches of the royal family and their

swer could be given to the question. When the late bishop
entered the ministry he did not regard himself—looking
back to that period—as in the faith. lluriog his residence
at Kenilworth, however, he was called upon to preach a
special sermon in the neighbourhood. A brother dew-
man heard him preach, and in the afternoon of the day
sought his company, and with great plainness sad effectioe
punted out to him the deficiencies of the sermon, sail told
him that, though it was earnest and affectionate, yet it
lacked that without which no soul could bo laved—the
Gospel. Mr. Villien listened with that openness and cas
dour which so eminently marked him, end was led carefully
to examine the subject for himself. The result was that
his mind was enlightened to see wherein he had before been
in error, and to regard Christ in • wry he had not don
before. One of his first actions after this change in his
seetimeate and conduct was to stand up among his own
people and declare to them that hitherto he had been teach-
ing them error, but that from henceforth he was determined
to bow nothing among them save Jesus Christ, and Him
crucified. The sermon in the evening bore reference more
