RAILWAY COMMITTEES

(THIS DA Y.)

HOUSE OF LORDS.

Their Lordships assembled this morning at eleven o'clock in the
Lord Chancellor's Court. The Earl of Auckland in the chair.
Several alterations were proposed to be made, and several clauses
added to the Bills, which form the group upon the merits of which the
Committee have to decide. Their Lordships adjourned at one o'clock
to consider the effect of these alterations, and also to decide upon
the merits of the several Bills before them. Their Lordships will
re-assemble at half past four o'clock, for the purpose of announcing
the decisions to which they have arrived.

The Bills under their consideration are the :
Dublin, Dundrum, and Enniskerry Railway—Dorrington and Co.
agents.

The Dublin and Kingstown Extension to Bray—Barka, Pritt, and
Co., agents.

Dublin and Sandymount Atmospheric Railway—Waddy, agent.
Wexford, Carlow, and Dublin Junction Railway—L. Smyth, agent.
Waterford, Wexford, Wicklow, and Dublin Railway—Burke, Britt,
and Co., agents.
The clauses sought to be introduced are for the most part at the
instance of the Poor-law Commissioners (Ireland) and the Commis-
sioners of Customs (Ireland), for the protection of the public pro-
perty. There is also a clause proposed to be inserted to provide for
the protection of the navigation of the river Shone, near the town of
Enniscorthy, from any Injurious effects which may arise from ,the
formation of the intended railway by building bridges over the river.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
GROUP IV.

The Commit ee met to-day at twelve o'clock. Present —Mr. Hope
(chairman}, Mr. Wllshere, Viscount Chelsea, Viscount Bernard, and
Sir It. Howard.

Counsel stated that the Great North of Scotland line was opposed
by three competing lines—the Aberdeen, Banff, and Elgin, the Perth
and Inverness, and tho Inverness and Elgin Junction ; but as
neither of these three had been read a second time, it would be im-
possible to proceed with the great trunk line. The Alford Valley
line, the Great North of Scotland (Easter's Extension), and the Dee-
side line, were either parts of the system called the Great North
line, or were branches dependent upon it, and that therefore it would
be inconvenient to take them prior to the consideration of the main
trunk line.

The Oommittee were inclined to proceed with the Banffshire line.
but parties appeared for the Morayshire Railway, which had not yet
passed the standing orders, and opposed the consideration of that
line till the Morayshire v as in a condition to be placed before the
Committee at the same time.

Strathtay and Breadalbane was an unopposed line, and will, there-
fore, be referred to Mr. Greene's Committee.
At this disposal of the, whole group, the room was cleared, that
the Committee might consider whether they could proceed with the
Banffshire Railway.

When parties were admitted, they were informed by Mr. Hope,
the Chairman, that the Committee would report the circumstances
of the different Bills In the Group to the House to-Hight, and take
the opinion of the House upon them. Considering, however, that
those Bills, which would be read a second time to-niglat, could not
be taken up by the Committee till one day before Easter, It was im-
possible that the Committee, would meet till after Easter ; but of that
due notice would be given.
The Committee then adjourned.

GROUP VI.
The Committee decided, in the case of
THE SCOTTISH MIDLAND ?UNCTION
BRANCHES,

that the preamble of the Bill was proved.
The several clause were also agreed to.
PZETE AND car Err.

This line was next proceeded with,

The CHAIRMAN stated that lie was perfectly, willing to hear all the
evidence on both sides, but the opinion of the Committee was most
certainly decidedly contrary to the Bill.
