NI COL L' S CIILAMYS PALETOT.
This is a new and patented invention, which might perhaps
be better described as the vade mecum to the traveller by railway or
steam-packet. It also maintains the Registered Paletot's character
as a fashionable morning or out-door Coat by a general resemblance
to this popular garment. The chief improvement consists in a con-
trivance called a Chiamys, a name given to an extra lining, which
affords additional warmth to the chest and shoulders when worn in
the street or on horseback in the usual manner of a Paletot ; but
When it is intended to be used as a CIILAMYS PALETOT in tra-
velling, this extra lining, by merely fixing •ne button into a button-
hole, can be made to act as a comfortable cap or hood, effectually
Protecting the head, ears, neck, and front, or upper parts of the
Chest from draughts or cold currents of air.
Not only will the probability of catching cold be diminished, but
travelling by night will thus be divested 01 its chief inconvenience, as
the we,rer of 151C01.L'S CIILAMYS PALETOT may enjoy a re-
freshing sleep, his hat or cap being hung up in the carriage or en-
tirely dispensed with during the journey, thus avoiding headache and
Other uneasy sensations caused by its compression upon the forehead.
NICHOLL'S CIIL ANIYS PALETOT can be had of all the recog-
.
lined agents, but in London only of tile Patentees, 11. I. and D.

TO THE "BARD OF THE MINORIES."
Bard erne Minories! Excuse my freedom
In writing li es to one so famed as you ;
Aid If yen think it worth your while to read 'em,
An honour to my humble pen you'll do.
My motive in the lines which I present you,
Is simply this—l wish to compliment you.
I don't refer se much to skill in verses,
As to your strict adherence to the fact ;
The trading story which your Muse rehearses
Is perfectly as Messrs. MOSES act.
Poets, 'tis said, are rather fond of fiction,
But your assertions challenge contradiction.
MOSES and SON, you say, possess great merit
As Artistes in the making of attire ;
And, Sir, my commendation they inherit,
For MOSES' dress I very much admire.
They have a claim (and every day they show it)
Not less than that asserted by their poet.
All that you say of MOSES I rely on,
Tour compliments on style and strength are due,
There's not a garment that I fix my eye on,
But proves good quality and cheapness too.
Tour verse is true, Sir , ay ! and se your prose is,
Nor have you ever overrated MOSES.

14 One half the wend are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense et right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution ani worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret an-
comprising hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hi
ndrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should. net be the only marriage set-
tlement. Ilonour and justice dentaad that health shinild form &Racial

for a single line was about 8,5007. per olile; - and tie

engineer, might be completed for 180,0001.
After some discussion the report was unariimously 4
adopted, and thanks voted to the chairman mid s 4
directors.

MIDLAND GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY (DUBLIN !ice'
MuemNomt).—The sixth half-yearly meeting of thee--
proprietors was held yesterday (Friday), at Dublin, „
and the report printed prior to the meeting stated thatt
the traffic had been carried on with great regularity,
and that the accounts exhibited a steady increase in
the receipts, the amount of the railway and the canal
together being 24,697/., exclusive of a large amount-
of mail service performed at a remuneration which
was now in course of arrangement with the Post-,
office authorities. This, considering the depression
in trade, was satisfactory, and notwithstanding this,
the directors, owing to the cordial support of the pro-
proprietors, had carried on the continuation of the flub.
to Mullingar, to which point it would be opened
Monday next.; the 2d of October, completing the firm
section of the main trunk to the west of Ireland, Rua
which of course would afford a much better oppor-
tunity of developing the traffic than by thefornfer
termini to places comparatively unimportant. - The
Deviation Bill; from Mullingar to Athlone, had re-
ceived the Royal assent, thus completing the original
undertaking in its integrity. The best efforts would, --
be made to reduce arrears of calls and economize tr
expenditure in the coming half%year. The engineer-
ing and directors' expenses would be diminished. The
report of the engineer, Mr. Hemans, stated that sir
of Fairbairn's locomotives Were. ready to work Abe
fifty miles extension, and that the working expenses -
would not be more than usual.
GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY.—NOW that the line
is open to Doncaster, the progress of the. Works on .
the unfinished portions do not, probably, excite se
much interest as they did previously. Nevertheless,
we feel satisfied that all the inhabitants of the town,
will be glad to see the whole of the projected railway-,--;
communications to Doncaster completed, and will
learn with satisfaction tLat the works are proceeding-
as vigorously as before. The pile-driving for the
permanent bridge is not yet completed, but we un-
derstand that the works on the south side of the river
will be sufficiently advanced for the laying of the first' •

- -
of the bridge will be seventy feet, and the bridge•
itself will, we are informed, consist of a wrought iron
tube, constructed on the plan of the Menai Straits
bridge, in \Vales. It is, at present, being manufac-
tured at Manchester, from which place it will arrive
here in a week or two. The bridge over the road to
the marsh is all but completed; and beyond it, in the
direction of the river, a platform is being made, to
facilitate the erection of the bridge across the river.
