TIRE MOORS.-GROUSE SHOOTING. - It
Al has been the frequent suggestion of several Gentlemen, con-
stant patrons, that a SHOOTING JACKET and VEST, made of the
same kind of Llama Cloth as used by them in the Registered Paletot,
but ifs clours more suitable for the purpose, would give much
satisfaction ; such have been prepared; and the Jacket and Vast
together will weigh but 16 ounces. There will also be a variety in
thicker substances, but, for the extreme heat anticipated on the
moors this season, those described will be found a perfect luxury in
comparison with others. They will also be found' very useful as a
Fishing Coat, and other such purpores ; but it is necessary to observe
that they can only be had in London, of H. J. and D. NICOLL, at
22, Cornhiil, and the chief warehouse, 114, Regent-street.

RAtLWAY COAIMITTEES.

(.", ESTERDAI.7)

HOUSE OF LORDS.
There were no Railway Committees this day in their
.ordshipS' House.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
CORM AND wa.TEßronn.
GROUP LXXII.

The Committee to whom this Bill is referred consists of
the Hon. E. Yorke (chairman), Colonel Thomas Wood, Sir
D. Le Merchant, Mr. A. Smith, and Mr. Brown.
Counsel for the promoters, Mr. Sergeant Murphy, Mr.
Talbot, Q.C., Mr. Hope, Mr. Ponsonby, and Mr. Welsh.
On the petition of the scripholders and shareholders of the
Cork and Waterford, Mr. Sergeant Wrangham and Mr.
Murphy, Q.C., appeared for those parties.
Mr. Sergeant WHANCIIIIM stated to the Committee that the
ground of opposition on the part of his clients had been removed
by a satisfactory-explanation from the promoters of the
scheme. It appeared that at a meetine of the proprietors
there had been 52,000 scrip shares polled, although origin-
rely there were only 40,000 shales allotted by the Company.
This increase was accounted for by the -fact of an amalgama-
tion which had taken place wi:h the Cork and Youghal
Railway Company, who held more than the surplus number
of shares in the Cork and Waterford Railway, by virtue
of the agreement made for the cariying•out the said amal-
gamation. The petitioners, therefore, withdrew all opposition.
Petitions against the Bill of Cooper Penzose, Esq, Alex.
Deantry, Esq., and other proprietors of land on the line, were
called upon, but no patties appeared on their behalf. The
Committee then proceeded to the formal evidence (the Bill
having passed the House of Lords).
Mr. TALBOT, Q.C., then opened the case on behalf of the pro-
moters; he stated that the line would commence near St.
Patrick's-bridge, in the city of Cork, terminating at Water-
ford, and would accommodate, amongst others, the towns or
places of Cork, Cove, New Glanmire, Glanmire, Cloyne, Car-
rigtohill, Middleton, Fermoy, Glanworth, Mitchelstown,
Rathcormac, Castle Martyr, Killeagh, Youghal, Lismore,
Cappoquin, Tallow, Dungarcan, Stradbally, Kiltnacthomas,
Bonmahon, Tramore, Stud Waterford, embracing a popula •
tion of 200,000 souls,lprelusive of the agricultural districts.
The line of railway would unite two of the largest cities in
the south of Ireland—Cork and WPterford—and would also
be the medium of direct communication with all the harbours
along the south coast, securing by its junction with the
Waterford and Kilkenny and Waterford and Limerick lines,
now in progress of construction, an important connexion
with the counties of Kilkenny, Tipperary, Limerick,
and the midland counties generally; while, by its
junction with the Waterford, Wexford, Wicklow,
and Dublin Railway (which had received the
sanction of Parliament in the present session), and by means
of the South. Wales Railway, it will afford the most certain
and rapid communication between the south of Ireland and
Lon don, the distance being 55 miles shorter than by the Dublin
and Holyhead route. The proposed line would also, by means
of the Waterford, Wexford, Wicklow, and Dublin Railway,
complete a coast communication between Dublin and Cork.
The line also embraced the valuable mineral districts of the
south of Ireland, more particularly those of Stradbally and
Bonmahon; the importance of which might be understood
by considering the amount of annual increase in the produce
of copper ore from the Knockmahon mines since 1836. Not-
withstanding the great impediment which want of com-
munication opposes to the full development of its resources,
in 1836 there were raised 3,588 tons, value 33,166 L,
and 1844 upwards of 10,000, value 75,0004, and
which affords employment to from 1,600 to 2,000 people.
A direct and rapid communication will also be opened between
this district and Cove, the great naval arsenal of Ireland,
to the obvious advantage of the Government of the country.
There is no competing scheme. The support of all the large
landowners is afforded to the undertaking. The Bill has passed
the House of Lord.,. having received the unanimous assent
of the Committee, after aminute and lengthened investigation.
The districts traversed by the proposed line would be bene-
fited by a better and cheaper conveyance for grain, cattle,
and other articles of export, as well as for coal, timber, and
iron, and the numerous articles of import. The internal
communication for lime, sand, salt, seaweed, and other
articles, would also be materially benefited.. The fishing
interest would also partake of the advantages of the line.
By means of the branch to Fermoy, communication would
be opened 'with the northern parts of the county of Cork, and
the great military depot of the south of Ireland,
which contained accommodation for 14 field-officers,
169 officers, and 2,916 non-commissioned officers and
privates, with stabling for upwards of 150 horses. The
length of the main line was 78 miles 8 chains. The
Fermoy branch was 18 miles, and the branch to Tramore 1
mile 16% chains. The Bill had passed the House of Lords,
and the principal landowners upon the line had petitioned
in favour of the scheme. - Having stated these facts, he
would proceed to call evidence as briefly as possible.
Several witnesses were then called who gave general evi-
dence in favour of the line.
Mr. tßeamish, C.E., engineer to the line, stated that the
steepest gradient was 1 in 70, that there were several
curves of 20 chains radius, a tunnel of the length of 1,470
yards proposed to be made through a favourable strata, and
the total estimate for the construction of the line was
1,500,000/., which was ample.
The CHAIRMAN then declared that the preamble of the
Bill was proved.
The several clauses were then agreed to, and the Bill was
ordered to be reported. ' -

MR. RICHARD DUNN AND MISS
I3ITIZDETE COUTTS AGAIN.
From the ((Miming extraordinary and unique proceedings it
will be seen that Mr. Richard Dunn, nothing loth of the in-
dictment which has been found against him by the Grand
Jury at the Central Criminal Court in June last for perjury,
and upon the warrant subsequently issued for his apprehension,
and of his committal to Newgate, the particulars of which ap-
peared in our journal of the 6th inst., is determined to obtain
the 100,0001. which he alleges he has the authority of Miss
Burdett Coutts to draw out of the banking-house of Coutts and
Co. ; as in the course of Wednesday morning the Learned
Gentleman went to the Court of Bankruptcy for the purpose of
swearing an affidavit before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd, but
that learned functionary not sitting,. he went and swore the
following affidavit before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn, which
was signed as a matter of course, not the slightest remark pass-
ing, beyond the officer of the Court saying, this is your name
and handwriting, and the contents of this your affidavit is
true? to which Mr. Dunn replied in the affirmative. The
following is a copy of the affida /it
IN THE BANKRUPTCY COURT.
" Richard Dunn, Esquire, barrister at law, of No. 6,
New-street, in the city of Westminster, maketh oath, and
saith, that Angelina Burdett Coutts, of No. 1, Stratton-
street, and 59, Strand, both in the city of Westminster, is
justly and duly indebted to this deponent in the sum of
100,0001., by virtue of a certain authority in writing given
to this deponent by the said Angelina Burdett Coutts, to
draw a bill on the bank of Coutts and Co. for such a sum of
money. as this deponent should think a fair compensation for
the injuries and imprisonments done and inflicted on this de-
ponent by the said Angelina Burdett Coutts, and for the re-
covery of damages for which this deponent had at that time
commenced legal proceedings, and which said bill so drawn by
this deponent the said Angelina Burdett Coutts promised in
writing should be duly paid, which said bill, although drawn
for the sum of 100,0001., as compensation for the said inju-
ries, and duly presented by this deponent at the said bank
aforesaid, dated March 4, 1846, was not paid, and which said
bill still remains justly due and owing to this deponent ; and
this deponent further saith, that the said Angelina Burdett
Coutts is a partner in the said bank aforesaid, and a trader
within the meaning of the laws relating to bankrupts, as this
deponent verily believes,

,g RICHARD DUNN.

" Sworn' in the Bankruptcy Court,
Basinghall-street, this 12th day of •
August, 1846, before me
(Signed) " EDWARD GOULBURN."
As soon as the signature of the Commissioner was attached
to the affidavit, it was handed back to Mr. Dunn, who pro-
ceeded to the office of Mr. Humphreys, the solicitor to Miss
Burdett Coutts, and informed that gentleman through the
medium of his son, that he (Mr. Dunn) had no intention by
his present proeeedings to sue out a fiat of bankruptcy against
Miss Burdett Coutts, his object being to oblige her to give
bail, that she would proceed to trial in an action for debt, and
that if Mr. Humphreys would give him a written undertaking
that he would accept the affidavit on behalf of Miss Coutts, he
would be perfectly satisfied. If his proposal was rejected, then
be should have to adopt measures to enable the affidavit of
debt to be served personally on the lady, Mr. Humphreys,
however, declined interfering, causing Mr. Dunn to be in-
informed that he must adopt what course be thought proper,
on which the Learned Gentleman left the office for the purpose
of causiog his notice of debt to be served.
The following is a copy of the order for payment which has
led to the adoption of the recent proceedings
London, March 4,1846.
" Gentlemen—Pay myself or order the sum of One Hundred
Thousand Pounds. " RICHARD DUNN.
" By the authority of Miss Burdett Coutts.
" Messrs. Coutts and Co., 59, Strand."
Mr. Dunn has also sent a long statement of complaints to
Sir George Grey, the Secretary of State for the Home De-
pertinent, in which he requested the interference of the
'
Government to protect the liberty of the subject, contend-
ing that as he had removed the indictment by a writ of certio-
rari into the Court of Queens Bench, the Lord Chief Baron
had improperly committed him to Newgate, because he had
not been able to obtain two housekeepers for bail, although
one person who was rejected had 1,6001. standing in his name
with the Accountant-General, that he could qualify for a voter
the office of the clerk of the indictments
t he cn
for the city of Westminster,an that if the Lord Chief Baron
r duairnty a lbad Court, to be allowed to see the indict-
mentbeen assigned, but which had been
had the power to commit, it was to the Queen's prison, and
not to Newgate, at which latter place he was treated as a felon :
thatat
ehadwhich

It will thus be seen from the above statement that still
further legal proceedings will be adopted before the matters
connected with this extraordinsry case are finally terminated.

SALE. OF OF TIN WORKS.—On Thursday Mr. Robins of-
fered for sale at the Auction Mart the well-known and exten-
sive works situate close to the town of Kidwelly, in South
Wales, under the corporation of which borough they are held

from the sea, on the banks of gwendrath Faek river, and a

JERSEY CIDER.—An importation of this esteemed
summer beverage hasjust taken place at the port of Bristol

from Jersey, the produce of the island mentioned. The im-
portation of a quantity of the article at this late period of

of notice, as it may, in consequence of the probable conti-
nuation of warm weather, be of interest and importance to
the trade.
THE GREAT BRITAIN.--At the departure of our ex-
press from Liverpool on Thursday afternoon, no intelligence
of this noble ship had been received. Her arrival was
anxiously looked for. She will only bring one day's later
news. .
