TRAVELLERS BETWEEN PARIS AND LONDON.—Many
complaints have been made by travellers of being de-
tained at Dover on their return to London by the mail
leaving Paris at 7 30 p.m., in consequence of not being
able to get their luggage landed and examined in time
for the train corresponding with the mail packet. This
cause of complaint no longer exists. Passengers can now
have their luggage registered in Paris and brought direct to
the London-bridge terminus without examination ; and
since the 3d inst. no fewer than 334 packages have been so
brought'through, relieving 265 passengers from all anxiety
as to catching the train, and saving them the trouble of look-
ing after their luggage both at Calais and Dover. The great
improvement has been brought about at the earnest desire
of the travelling public, represented by the chairman of

promptly acceded to by Mr. James Wilson, the Secretary
of the Treasbry, in the early part of last session ; but the
difficulties thrown in the way by interested parties at
Dover prevented the new facility being accorded to tra-
velling until the 3d of the present month. The Customs'
officers now attend on the arrival of the mail train at the
examination room, which has been eredted for the pur-
pose by the South Eastern Railway Company,
at the
London-bridge Terminus ; and so much is the new plan
appreciated, that packages of luggage are already sent
forward in this way to wait the arrival of their owners
on a future day.
THE SHIP-BUILDERS OF LIVERPOOL AND THEIR SHIP-
WRIGHTS.—An important meeting of the ship-builders
of Liverpool was held on Wednesday, when it

ployed in the building-yards, and that the rate of wages
