lILWAY COMMITTEES.
(THIS DAY.)

HOUSE uF LORDS.
Room B.

Their Lordships met this day at eleven o'clock, and
proceeded with
TH7O CALEDONIAN (GLASGOW, GA.TLIIT
HUIK, AND COATBRIDGE, BRANCHES TO GLAS-
GOW AND STATIONS).
Mr. M‘Guffie, railway contractor, and Mr. Alexander
Black, surveyor, Falkirk, were called to speak to certain
borings on the railway, for the purpose of showing that
the strata was of such a soft and friable character, that
a etc nger would be incurred if the company were allowed
to execute their works on the Glat,gow and Edinburgh
Railway's tunnel.
Mr. Adie, C.E., gave evidence to show that great
dander would arise from the construction of the works.
The clay they would have to deal with was of a very
soft and friable character, and it would, on the admis-
sion of water, be apt to come off in large flakes. This
would be apt to occasion the sides of the tunnel to col-
laps.) and tall.
Mr. John C.E., corroborated the preceding
witness's evidence.

Mr. ANDREWS replied for the opposition.
Tne Committee decided that the preamble was proved,
and then adjourned.

Room C.

EZRNE BAY AND CANTERBURY JUNC-
TION,

The Committee appointed to examine into the merits
of this line met this day, at eleven o'clock. The Duke
of Duceleuch presided.
Mr. HOPE examined several witnesses to prove that
very little traffic existed between Canterbury and Herne
Bay.

Robert Johnson, a van proprietor and driver, was
examined, who stated that during the winter weather
he obtained no profit from his occupation, and that it
was only by the business which he did in the summer
months that he was enabled to make a living. The
principal part of the visitors to Herne Bay came by
water, It was formerly very much visited, but since the
opening of the South-Eastern Railway it had declined.
The Rev. G. Dawson, vicar of Whitstable, was next
examined, who proved that there was a gradient upon
the Whitstable line which required three or four runs of
the train backwards and forwards to enable it to
overcome it. This gradient was not the only
one which required such an effort of the engine.
Herne Bay had fallen into disuse as a watering place,
and the steam-boat service was not carried on well
from want of traffic, and he considered that the popula-
tien of Herne Bay had greatly decreased, partly from
the facilities of communication to other places, such as
Rauisgate and Margate, and partly from the imposition
,of the innkeepers.
After a ir cry lengthened argument, the Committee de-
cided that the Bill had passed.
