LONDON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 4, 1864.

It must be a great satisfaction to a Minister to
quit the stormy scene of Parliamentary strife, and
the vexed questions that will admit of no happy
solution, and engage in the more peaceful pursuits
of country life. Lord PALMERSTON is always ready
for anything, and of late he has certainly shone
more in the secondary than in the primary duties
which he is called upon to discharge; at meetings
and ceremonies of all kinds he is particularly for-
tunate in winning approval and gaining popularity,
and the affair which took place at Towcester yes-
terday proved no exception to the rule, for universal
satisfaction seemed to be felt at the whole proceed-
ings. The change must have been great to the
quiet little place, which has not hitherto had a
railway, and altogether the scene was a very ex-
citing one. The whole business of the turning of
the sod was got through very successfully, and the
presence of Lady PALMERSTON, who performed the
ceremony, gave great satisfaction. Her ladyship
has set a good example in this respect to others of
her clasF.i, and the fact of one in her high position
thus coming forward to mix herself up in matters
which relate to the traffic and business of the com-
munity is interesting, and it cannot bat be improv-
log to both sides to meet thus in a frank and
friendly spirit with a source of interest common to
all, and in the success of which all are alike so con-
cerned as the construction of railways and their in-
troduction into all parts of the kingdom. The
ceremony over, there ,was a luncheon, at which
some speeches were made, Sir CUSACK RONEY:pre.
Bided, and explained the route of the line, and the
vast advantages it would promote to ail parts of
Northamptonshire. It is fortunate that the
d.fficalties which were in the way of this
line being carried out have been removed,
and there is great credit due to Lady
PALMERSTON for the pert she took in promoting the
interests of the undertaking. Sir CUSACK RONEY
brought the fact of the great services rendered to
rail weya clearly before his hearers, when he told
then that they had carried two hundred million
persone during last year. Thus, said he, " every
mac, woman, and child in the country may see, at
imagination, that they had travelled least, in by
railways at least six times during the year." It is
well that these matters should be thus set forth at
times, or persons really may forget to pay heed to
them in the whirl of passing events, and the direc-
tors and managers of railways can certainly proffer
thls excuse, that if there are more accidents now
recorded the number of travellers is far greater.
Lord PALMthTON'S remarks were appropriate,
and he seemed to take a great interest in the whole
