DAY or HUMILIATION AND FRAYEIL—Friday nest
being the day appointed for' prayer and humiliation, all
the Courts in the Hall will be closed, and public business
in the law department will be dispensed with on the
occasion. From the same cause the Corn Market, usually
held on Friday, will be postponed until Saturday. The
Bank of Ireland and other public offices will be closed
on Friday. _ _ _

THE CORN MARKET.-At our corn exchange, this
day, farmers being occupied at field labour, the supply of
all kinds of grain was small. Friday's picas were fully
maintained'in all descriptions, and an advance of 6d. per
barrel was paid on grinding barley.
LORD RANFURLY AND HIS TENANTRY.

The following notification has been issued to the
tenants of the Dungannon estates :
" The Earl of Ranfurly, anxious for the welfare of
the tenantry, and deeply sympathising with them in the
loss sustained by the almost total failure of the potato
crop, has directed me to make the following uncondi-
tional reduction on the rents payable to May, 1846, with.
the exceptions hereafter to be stated, namely—
" Labourers' cottages and gardens, where the rent
does not exceed 11., the full year's rent.
Rents not exceeding 201., 20 per cent.
Rents not exceeding 302,10 per cent.
" The exceptions are as follow :—No abatement will
be made in the case of tenants holding in perpetuity, or
holding town-parks or tenements ; or, if leaseholders,
having leases dated in the year 1795, or any year pre-
ceding. No allowance will be made except to those who
hold immediately from the office, and for land only in
their own occupation. Though there will bo a reduction
on the full year's rent, no part of it will be made on the
half-year due in November, 1845, but only on the half-
year due at May last.
" I trust the tenantry on his Lordship's estate will
show themselves fully alive to this unsolicited act ; and
evince an equal disposition, by the punctual payment of
the rents, to bear a just proportion of a calamity over
which only an all-wise Providence has had control.
The smaller or labouring classes of tenantry are well
aware of the extensive employment afforded by his
Lordship, not only in this but other seasons ; and it is
desirable for me to make known the great advantage to
those tenants that arises from the general rule of the
office in this respect, which is, to endeavour to give em-
ployment to all, more especially at seasons of the year
when employment with the large farmer ceases.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

ANALYSIS OF THE EVIDENCE OF MESSRS.
GLYN AND HUDSON ON THE INEX-
PEDIENCY OF METROPOLITAN TERMINI.

Mr. George Carr Glyn, chairman of the London and
North Western, states that the surveys for art extension
of the Lendon and North Western, proposed to be made
in the ensuing session, were made for the extension to
the City, and the notices given ; but the Bill not carried
to Parliament. They deposited the first plans, but not
the list. This was done just before the last session of
Parliament. The estimates were all made for the line
from the Camden station to Farringdon-street, the ter-
minus proposed. It was proposed that this line should
go eastward from Camden• town until it Caine to the high
level above Pentonville ; from thence by a tunnel under
Skinner street, to Farringdon-street. This plan, pro-
bably the one which could have been executed with the
least inconvenience and the least expense, aconsiderab:e
portion of it being carried by tunnelling in that way.
It was found, however, that the cost was so muck above
the calculation originally made, that they were induced
to give it up ; the original eetimate contemplated an
outlay of from eOO.OOO/. to 700,0001. for the line and
station. The detailed estimates amounted to upwards of
a million, and it was not thought worth while, from the
advantage to be derived from it, to incur such an outlay.
The unexpected increase was to be laid principally to
the station. The idea of a station in Farringdon-street
was merely for goods. They might occasionally have
run a train from thence for local traffic. It was, how-
ever, chiefly intended for a goods station. Mr. Stephen-
son'o model is almost entirely appropriated to goof s
traffil. They never contemplated working their long
passenger trains from thence, but thought it very likely
that two or three trains in the course of the morning,
and again in the afternoon, just for the people using the
City for business, and living in their villas, might be
convenient and useful. Their passenger traffic into the
City bears a very small proportion to the traffic to the
west-end; even taking the division of London at Euston-
square, the great proportion would be the other way.
The area of the station at Camden town is about thirty
acres ; this not all appropriated to goods ; the part ap-
propriated to roads is rather more than fifteen acres.
In addition to which, Pickfords have their separate
establishment of about two acres. The area of their
station at Farringdon-street would be two acres and a
half. A project, in lien of the Farringdon street exten-
sion, is at present entertained, in connexion with the East
and West India Dock Company, and by some parties in
the City, by which a line is to be carried from the Cam-
den station down to the East and West India Docks. As
regards the export and import trade generally in goods,
a better position than that cannot be conceived. The
export dock of the East and West India Dock Company
is very large, as well as their import dock ; there is more
accommodation there than in almost any dock in London,
and they have plenty of space to make a sufficient sta-
tion ; they can give six acres at least for that purp se.
The Dock Company join with the London and Birming-
ham Railway Company in this scheme. It is proposed
to come down to the basin at the entrance of the West
India dock on the east side. This plan will give a
water communication from the City and the other docks
to this point, either through the City basin, or down the
river, as may be most convenient. In addition to the
dock traffic, they also expect a considerable traffic from
the wharfs along the river and the other docks. They
propose carrying passengers down to the docks ; but
that is not the foundation of the plan ; they look almost
entirely to a goods traffic. They will load the trucks
at the docks station, and which will be conveyed to their
destination without breaking bulk. There will be no
transhipment, no change from one truck to another ;
but they will come from Manchester, Leeds, and so
forth, straight down to the West India Docks, where
they will be discharged. Consider this a great advan-
tage ; it is one of the best plans for the trade of the city
of London that witness ever heard of. The cost of cart-
age and of transhipment avoided by this plan ; and also
breakage of the goods and pilfering. They have not
much power of enlarging the goods station at Camden-
town ; they are enlarging the passenger station at Eus-
ton-square very considerably; they have made very large
purchases. They will nearly double the area at Euston
square ; at present it is about six acres; by the new pur-
chases it will be nearly twelve. From the experience of
the last year, it is quite certain the increased area will
not be too much. The traffic on the London and Bir-
mingham Railway is so much increased, that the York-
shire and Lancashire trade will in future be worked as
two distinct branches of business at two sides of the
station. This arrangement is absolutely necessary from
the great increase of traffic. Inconvenience and delays
in respect of mails described as arising from confined
span of station. The goods traffic going to the West
India Docks will very much relieve the station at
Camden-town. That is one object that they have in
view, as well as to save the merchants and importers the
very heavy expense of cartage. The expense of cartage
in London, compared with the expense of bringing goods
from Manchester to London, is very considerable. Pick-
fords the largest carriers on the London and Birming-
ham
,line ; Chaplin and Horne next. All the large
carriers using the north of England have establishments
at Camden-town. As far as possible, all goods intended
for exportation, would be loaded at the towns themselves
for their destination at the East and West India Docks.
There must, however, be some re-sorting, but not much.
Their waggons contain something less than five tons.
Five tons the maximum; five tons of goods, besides the
weight of the truck. Decidedly prefers a smaller load
than this; would rather put two tons into a waggon than
incur the risk of re-packing and re-sorting; breaking
bulk, till the goods come to their destination, to be
avoided as much as possible. They like them to be
sheeted over at the provinces, and not disturbed till they
come to the place of delivery. Does not consider a ter-
minus for passengers at Farringdon-street at all desira-
ble for the Birmingham Company. A central station,
unless with a large space of ground, which it is almost
impossible to command in any central point in London
will do no good whatever. In a central station the
