We have been requested to publish the following cor.
respondence :
" London and South-Western Railway,
Secretary's Office, York-road, 3/larch 24, 1854.
" Sir,—Your letter of the 11th inst. wai,3 laid before the
court of directors at their meeting yesterday.
" In reply to the various questions put by you I am de-
sired to give the following explanation :
" On the arrival of the excursionists in the docks, it was
represented to some of the directors of the company, who
were present on the occasion, that it would be a groat con-
venience and accommodation to the party, but particularly
to those who were members of the House of Commons, if
they could return to London at an earlier hour than the
one originally advertised.
"It being understood that this was the general wish of
the whole party, with the-exception of a few, who preferred
remaining later, and whose tickets were marked at their
request permitting them to return by any train during the
evening, the earlier return of the train was arranged ac-
cordingly.
" I am desired to express, on the part of the directors,
their great regret that through any cause this alter3tion in
the arrangement should not have been made known you,
or the other parties to whom you refer, and that you si`iould
have experienced any inconvenience in consequence.
"I am to acid that no danger could arise to the excursion
train in consequence of the change of the hour, the usual
notice of the special train having been sent to all interme-
diate stations of the altered hour of starting it.
" I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
" L. CAOMBIE, Secretary.
" J. S. Pakington, Esq., 10, Eatou-terrace."

" 10, Eaton-terrace, March 25, 1854.
" Sir,—l beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letter
of yesterday's date, written on behalf of the directors of
the London and South-Western Railway Company, in an-
swer to mine of the 11th inst., mid to express my sense of
the courteous terms in which their explanation is con-
veyed.

"I have the honour to remain, Sir,
" Very faithfully yours,
" J. SLANEY ?ARINGTON.

" L. Crombie, Esq.," &c.
