THE ROYAL TRAINS. Mr. Eborall, general
manager, Mr. Ashcroft, engineer, and Mr. Knight,
traffic manager, of the South-Eastern Railway Company,
attended yesterday at Woolwich Arsenal, and conferred
with Major Scratchley, R.E., director of works, on the
necessity of counselling Her Majesty's advisers to abandon
the plan of conveying the Court from Woolwich to
Windsor by rail on the arrival of tho Royal family
from the Continent as adopted throughout the lino on
their departure. On a survey and examination
of the rails through the Royal Arsenal it was
pronounced that in their present state it would
be exceedingly injudicious to risk the chance of an
accident. The numerous curves along the line in its pre-
sent state somewhat obstruct the passage of an ordinary
locomotive, and render considerable amount of caution
requisite to avoid running off the rails. A new line of
rails will, therefore, in all probability be laid down as sug-
gested, and the line will be retained for her Majesty's per-
manent use.

COLLIERY DEMONSTRATION AT BARNSLEY.—YeS-
terday (Monday) one of the largest assemblages of
miners ever held in Yorkshire took place at Barnsley. From
an early hour in the morning the streets were crowded, the
whole of the pits in the district having been closed for the
day, and there were fully 7,000 persons present. About 12
o'clock a procession was formed, which extended for nearly
half a mile, and the vast body, who were accompanied by
eight bands, with a vast display of flags, banners, &c
proceeded to the grounds at Beechfield, where a platform
was erected, The chair was taken by Mr. J. Normansell,
the secretary of the Miners' Association, who, in introduc-
ing the proceeding; remarked on the financial position of
the society. After having paid more than £l,OOO to carry
out the provisions of the Act of Parliament relative to the
weighing of coal on the pit bank; and large sums for other
objects, they had now a cash balance in the bank to the
credit of the Barnsley district of £2,150. The following
resolutions were adopted :—" That the operative miner
of the Barnsley district are fully satisfied of the advantagcs
of union in promoting their physical, social, and moral
elevation, and therefore pledge themselves to support
the rules and regulations of the society, and also to spread
its principles in the districts not yet in connection with it.
That this meeting pledges itself to support the executive of
the Miners' National Association, and also to assist in pro-
moting the forthcoming Parliamentary inquiry into the

fear that when the savans and visitors troop into the town
as they will do on Wednesday morning, some of them may
be unable to obtain satisfactory accommodation. Under
the circumstances, we would recommend tradesmen in the
centre of the town having a few spars beds to place them
at the disposal of the local committee for a consideration.
