RAILWAY COMMUNICATION WITH THE EASTERN
Frarnes.---A public meeting of the inhabitants of PIM t-
ttie and neighbouring districts was held la.t evening at
the Drill-room. I Miaow. for the purpose of securing
increased railway accommodation between that ir-
hr and the City. The Rev. Mr. Scott took the chair,
and adverted to the fact that there were a number of
empty houses in the district, and it was suggested that if
'rioter facilities were offered to travel on the railway
which tweed through the town, it would tend much to
get these dwellings inhabited, and so promote the interests
not only of the railway company, but the comfort of a
loge number of people and the trade of the place. It
was most desirable that reasonable accommodation
should he afforded the working classes to reach
their field of employment, and with a view of
meeting the present want it was urged that au
earlier train should be run in the morning to Fen-
cturs 11-street. Mr. Smith next addressed the meeting,
and pointed out the disadvantages under which the
working men living in that neighbourhood laboured, the
first train in the morning not running to town until 7.28.
If the labouring man could travel by the Tilbury line as
on some of the other railways, and arrive in London in
time to commence work at the usual hour, it would prove
a gnat boon to the bard-working community. Mr. Littler
then gave some details of an interview which a deputation
of the inhabitants had had with Mr. Louth, the manager of
the London, Tilbury, and Southend Railway Company, Ulthe
hope of securing an earlier train to the City for the working
chimes, and the stopping of more trains at Plaistow in
the course of the day. Mr. Louth informed them that the
present traffic would not justify the running of an earlier
train, and that they were asking him to put his hands
into his employers' pockets to assist the deputation in
letting their houses and selling their land. If, however,
the inhabitants would guarantee 151. a week he would
start an early train. After some discussion he also un-
dertook not to withdraw for the present the 7.28 train.
Mr. Fisher, Mr. Worth, and other gentlemen addressed
the meeting, and a resolution to the effect that the district
be t unvassed, with a view of uteertaining bow many per-
t. Jr, would barrel by au early train, and that the maierger
of the railway ex nil any be requested to grant return
tickets at the tate of Its. a month, was sAoptisl. Another
resolution tugiug the expediency of running early trains
to Lett the requirements of the working-clays was passed.
Follll LONDON INDUSTRIAL Ex DIBITION.—
I art t‘eiting a crowded public meeting was held in tho
I clot gleioad Congregational Chapel as an inaugural
in aig of the winter season at the Lambeth B ithr, and
in fort) ertinee of the proposed Industrial Exhibition for
South I onden, to be held at the baths early in the ensuing
vi str. Mr. Thomas Maybes, M.P., occupied the char.
sir. (Lll.lllll, lily opened the proceedings by reiditer the
pr gran me for the erming season at the Lambeth Baths,
nhit li, iu addition to the ui eat proceedings, include, a
snipe ( f keturen on the application of science to the re-
spilt. mints of daily life, to be illustrated by mulela die
gnaw% mid spi ClmenN, lent by Mr. Twin' er from the
`I risks idiom Muteum, and in connexion with which
rtires were to be given to working men. In March nixt
it was also intended to hold an Industrial Exhibition
on a large and improved scale, which would be
under the direst patronage of Lord Shaftesbury, the
Right Hon. Mr. Ohulatone, Mr. John Bright, M.P., Mr.
I ayard, M.l'., and other gentlemen, with Mr. Samuel
Morley, as president, and under whose auspices the
Lambeth Baths were to be opened. The name of Mr.
Morley was received with loud cheer+. Mr. T. Hughes,
M.P., raid he had listened with great interest to the pro-
gramme read by Mr. Murphy, especially that portion re-
lating to the proposed exhibition. He strongly approved
of there industrial exhibitions as instructing working men
in what was called technical education. He was of °pi-
nien that working men who exhibited on theme oocanions
should confine themselves to the production of articles in
their own special handicraft, by which their capabilities
as workmen would be improved. A resolution approving
of the proposed exhibition, and pledging the meeting to
support it, was carried unanimously. A resolution
was then adopted, thanking Mr. Samuel Morley for his
liberality, by which the Lambeth Bath macro was kept
up, and Mr. Hughes for presiding tin the oiximiest after
Which the meeting ettparateti.

SPEECH OF THE KING OF PRUSSIA.
lIAIIBURA Barr. 21.

The King of Prussia paid avi it to-d ty to the
I3ourse. In reply to a oongratulatory aitbress his
Hsjsasty said :
" Wi.at you want, we all want, namely, peasi;
and I f ntertain the most confident hopes that it
will not be disturbed. The language I have
already used at Kiel should have been accepted m
a most imphatic expression of my confidence in
its maintenawle, and it is inexplicable how an
opposite interpretation could even for one moment
have titian.'

OPENING OF THE DUTCH CHAMBERS.
THE HAWK, Bm. 21.

The chambers were opened to-day by the King
in person. Hie Majesty delivered a speech from
the throne, in which he said :—" My relations
with foreign powers are most satisfactory. Meye-
rs] bills will be submitted to you, among others a
bill for increasing the number of deputies to the
Lower House, and a bill fur the abolition of the
stamp duty on printed matter, for which an equi-
valent will be substituted. The revenue suffices
to meet the expenditure of the state without hav-
ing recourse to any extraordinary means. A
report on our colonies will be presented to you at
an eatly day of the cession, and I hope the budget
of our East Indian possessions will be speedily
discusted by you. I expect that towards the sprint
of next year the questions of the cultivation of
sugar and the leasing of land holdings in India
will Lc settled."

BURGLARY AND ATTEMPTED MURDER AT NOT—
nNo.mthh.—About 2 o'clock yesterday morning dreadful
shrieks were heard proceeding. from No. 6, 'Tavistock-
crescent, Netting-hill, the residence of Mrs. Langley. a
widow lady, of about 30 years of age. Shortly after-
wards her bedroom window was raised and she threw
hertel into the Redden beneath. When picked up by
crier
those attracted by her she was found to be in a
shocking condition. Her face was ga hed in • terrible
manlier, and part of her skull had been chopped off.
There was also a severe gash on the leg. Medical assis-
tance was at once obtained, but though she was found
to le alive, she is in such a condition that uo hope is said
to be eateitained of her recovery. Upon a search of the
house being made it was found that thorn Li 1 boon a

Tit ECARRIAGE OF PETROLEC M. —The London awl
North Western Railway have issued a notice to the effect
that they "will not cony in any of their boats trading
between the ports of Holyhead and Dublin any potro-
h um, Range u oil, Buisnah oil, an product of them,
Cr any oil of petroleum, peat, or other bituminous sub-
stance, or any gunpowder, aquafortis, oil of vitriol, or any
other goods which in the Judgment of the company are
of a dangerous character." Terser who may attempt
to evade this regulation by sending dangerous consign-
inmate covertly, are threatened with prosecution under
the 320th section of the Merchant Shipping Act,
1864, which imposes a penalty of 100/. for every such
offence. It will be noticed that no reference is made
to the carriage of petroleum, or other dangerous goods, by
run, but the closing of the mail packets to this traffic will
in some measure have the effect of stopping such consign-
ments 17 the Chester and Holyhead Railway, which from
its proximity to numerous chemical works has hitherto
done a considerable business in this line. Thera is, how-
ever, nothing in the new regulation which would
.pre-
vent a manufacturers having • largo oraisigtonent, from
despatching his goods to Holylowd by the ordinary lug-
gage trains, and thence to Ireland by means of a small
vessel of his own chartering.
