SIGHT AND UEANING,--The Messrs. S. and B. So'omens' newly-in-

fect vision. We give them the decided preference to every other
kind of Lens. The clearness of the transparency brings every ob-
ject very distinct, and enables individuals to view the most minute
particle with perfect accuracy. They are particularly pleasant by
candlelight, as they appear cooling to the sight, and soften bright

THE RICHMOND RAILWAY.
(THIS • DAY.)
The:Richmond Railway was opened to the public this day.
The station-houses are still unfinished, but the directors
have most properly determined to lose no time in affording
the public the benefits derivable from the improved means
of transit. The journey to Richmond may now be performed
by the ordinary trains in half, and by the express in a
quarter of an hour. There are four intermediate stations,
namely, Mortlake, Barnes, Putney, and Wandsworth, at each
of which the ordinary trains take up passengers. The di-
rectors have already entered into arrangements with one
of the steam-packet companies for a boat to take passen-
gers to and from the terminus at Nine Elms at a reduced
price. We trust that this will be extended, and that boats
calling at all the important stations on the river may meet
every train. In no way can they confer so great a be-
nefit on the company whose affairs they manage. Trains
are to run every hour in the day from eight o'clock in
the morning until half-past nine at night. The facilities
thus afforded will, we doubt not, induce many professional
gentlemen, who have hitherto been unable to spare the time
consumed by slow modes of conveyance, to take up their re-
sidences at places contiguous to the stations, or at least occa-
sionally enjoy a purer air than that of the City. We under•.
stand that proposals have been made by the South-Western
Company for the purchase of the line, but that the Richmond
Company have postponed the negotiation urtil they have
had some experience of the returns likely to be yielded.

Two folio columns of particulars of the Royal
Christening were given in yesterday's Observer.
The marriage of Lord Henley with Miss Augusta
Peel, daughter of the Dean of Worcester, wi:l take place on
Thursday next.

HER ROYAL HIGHNESS THE DUCHESS OF KENT.—
There is nothing definitely settled as to the Royal Duchess
going abroad this autumn. The only rumour in circulation
likely to be well-founded is, that after the visit of the King
and Queen of the Belgians, her Royal Highness will go to
Brussels for a month, on a visit to their Majesties, and at the
close will return to this country.
STALEYBRIDGE, JULY 23.—CAPTURE OF A SUPPOSED.
MURDERER.—In the month of September last, a so!dier,
named M‘Pherson, of the 64th Regiment, then stationed at
the Richmond barracks, was found in the Grand Canal.
Dublin, with his hands tied behind his back with a black
silk handkerchief, and his pockets turned inside out. No
money was found upon him, although it was well-known.
he had 6s. put into his pocket on the night of his death. At
that time an inquest was held on the body, and a verdict of
.• wilful murder" was returned. A navigator, named John
Conroy, was the last person seen with the deceased, and he
immeniately absconded from his lodgings and his employ at
a late hour of the night of the murder, leaving his boots be-
hind him, and came to England. From information given to
the Stayley- bridge police, this person was apprehended by
M-. Ilickeb the deputy constable, and his assistant constable,
Mr. Bodd, in Ramsbottom-street, Staley-bridge, about ten
o'clock on IVednesday night last. When charged with the
murder, the prisoner admitted that he knew the deceased,
and had been drinking with him on the night of hi death
at a late hour. He was brought before E. Sidebottom,
?(1., on Thursday, when a sergeant of the 56th Regiment
proved seeing the prisoner with the deceased a short time
previoui to his death. He was remanded until the police,
who are in possession of soma important information had
made some further inquiries. Major Brown, Commissioner
of Police, Dublin, has been written to on the subject.

THE RICHMOND, RAILWAY.
(THIS DAY.)
The:Richmond Railway was opened to the public this day.
The station-houses are still unfinished, but the directors
have most properly determined to lose no time in affording
the public the benefits derivable from the improved means
of transit. The journey to Richmond may now be performed
by the ordinary trains in half, and by the express in a
quarter of an hour. There are four intermediate stations,
namely, Mortlake, Barnes, -Putney, and Wandsworth, at each
of which the ordinary trains take up passengers. The di-
rectors have already entered into arrangements with one
of the steam-packet companies for a boat to take passen-
gers to and from the terminus at Nine Elms at a reduced
price. We trust that this will be extended, and that boats
calling at all the important stations on the river may meet
every train. In no way can they confer so great a be-
nefit on the company whose affairs they manage. Trains
are to run every hour in the day from eight o'clock in
the morning until half-past nine at night. The facilities
thus afforded will, we doubt not, induce many professional
gentlemen, who have hitherto been unable to spare the time
consumed by slow modes of conveyance, to take up their re-
sidences at places contiguous to the stations, or at least occa•
sionally enjoy a purer air than that of the City. We under-
stand that proposals have been made by the South-Western
Company for the purchase of the line, but that the Richmond
Company have postponed the negotiation until they have
had some experience of the returns likely to be yielded.

Two folio columns of particulars of the Royal
Christening were given in yesterday's Observer.

IMPORTANT DECISION.

GOOLE.

The Committee on the above Bill met yesterday for the last time,
in room No. 5 (Abindon•street). Lord Radnor took the chair, as
usual, and all the other members, namely, the Duke of Leinster, the
Earl Clancarthy, and Lords Caithorpe and Keen, were present.
The hour appointed for the meeting of the Committee was half-
past four, but :heir Lordships were in attendance a little before that
time. The whole business was disposed of in a few minutes.
The amendments, &c., having been settled, and the whole of the
clauses adjusted and read over, their Lordships passed the Bill and
agreed to report it to-morrow.
They then rose.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
GROUP LXVIT.

The Select Committee aipolt;ted---t; consider the merits of the
Bills comprised in this group re-assembled at the usual hour this
morning, Lord Lincoln in the Chair.

EASTMAN COUNTIES (CITY EXTENSION).
Mr. AUSTIN opened the case for the promoters of this Bill. It was
for extending the Cambridge line of the Eastern Counties Company
from Tottenham to the north side of the City-road, just above the
Regent's Canal, a distance of four miles and four chains. It was
originally intended to continue the extension en to Farringdon-street,
but the Metropolitan Commission having reported against this
part of the scheme, it was abandoned by the promoters.
The extension was to accommodate an ektending and increasing
traffic coming from Norfolk, Lincolnshire, and Cambridgeshire, and
it was estimated that it would not cost more than 800,0001.
Mr. Duncan, the solicitor of the company, gave general evidence
of the importance of the project; and its engineering features were
afterwards described by Mr. Itobert Stephenson and by Mr. Borth-
ick, the engineers of the Eastern Counties Company.
The Committee then adjourned.
