THE IRISH IN AMERICA.
TO THE EDITOR. OF THE TIMES.
Sir,—According to your report of the Bishop of
Ppeech in the House of L.ults, on Tueadsy
night, he states (quoting the Quarterly Review) th,sl
there are 3 000,000 souls, born in Iretund, now an the
United States.
According to Parliamentary returns, coromencinie
1826 and ending 1850, it appears there emigrated from
Great Britain atm Ireland, to
The Stites
Canada, &c.

... 811,7•)1

2 324,026
Previous to 1826, I beli.vo, there was scarei ly any emi.
gration from Ireland to America; consequently the num
ber of Irish, natives of Iriland, now living in ihe States,
who went previous to 1826, must be a mere fraction.
Supple we say that of the 2 324,026 one-third are
Briti-h, and this will be within the mark ; this will mak.
iho Irish emigration amount to 1.549,351. But of this
we mast take trat portion of Irish settling in the Bri
ash colonies, am, unfing to not loss than 250.000, anti
also •he deaths of al. Irish emigrants since 1826, which
cannot be less than 250,000. ['hum we have, in ruuu•
numbers, at the close of 1850, total number of Iris.

RAILWAY IN T ELLIGENCE-
CORN W ALL.
A special meeting of this c,..mpany was held at Truro
on Wednesday, Mr. W. Williams in the chair.
The Secretary then read the report,
The CNAIRMAN, in na.viog the adoption of the report,
said he had no doubt mac the railway could now b;
safely proceeded with, provided ths company were
fairly supported by the landowners. The director.
were perfectly satisfied that the line could be con-
structed for a sum wizhtn the estimates. Unless he
could see his way perfectly clear to the accomplish-
ment of the object they had in view, he would not pro-
ceed with it. tie h:d wide up his mind not to be in-
strumental in involving either the shareholders or the
directors, or the public at large, in a railway project that
could not b., carried out and c. millet, d.
Sir C. LEMON, Bart., 141.13., seconded the motion,
which was put and carried.

Mr. G. SMITH entered into a long statement to show
that the Cornwall line could be completed and opened
for traffic at a cost to ihe company of less than 1,000,0001.
lie said that the West Cortiwall Railway had con-
structed thirteen miles of railway at a cost of under
6,0001 a mile, and the plrtion of the latter eumpany'p.
line from Redru`h to Truro, which was similar to that
of the intended Cornwall Riilway, would 'be completer
for less than 6 0001. a mile. From an estimate of the
traffic that bad been carefully made it appeared that the
net revenue on the Cornwall line
ould amount to
58,000/.,per annum, being equal to a dividend of 5; per
cent. ou the outlay.
A long discussion ensued on the merits of the under-
taking and the possibility of completing it within the
estimate, in which Mr. C. J. Roberts, M P., Mr. H. 0
Wills, Mr. B. B. Vex. Mr. J. Allen, Mr. Darke, and
other proprietors took part.
Resolutions were passed approving of the proposal to
allow the shareholders, on or before the 10th of May,
to reduce the number of their shares to the extent of
one-fourth of the shares now registered in their names.
provided the call now made shall be paid on the other
three-fourths; authorizing the directors to accept a for-
feiture of such shares, and to re-is-ne the same on such
terms as they shall consider expedient; and that steps
be tdten to imure the earliest practicable resumption ut
the works.

The proceeding; concluded with a vote of thanks
the chsirreau end directors
