RAILWAY COMMITUEES.
(YESTERDAY.)

Sub-Committee No. 1.
MANCHESTER, AND SOUTHAMPTON.
(Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.)
Mr. BURKE, on the part of several land-owners DR the
line, proceeded with the various allegations in the petitions
against the Bill.
The first allegation was, that property numbered 109 on
the plan was not correctly shown.
Mr. Lutton, the owner of the property, was called. He
tated that there was a field not shown on tb.e plan.
Examined by Mr. EmicomnE—Had signed the petition
against the Bill. Understood it to be the petition. It was
on a sheet of parchment, and its contents, he understood,
were against the Bill. Had not read it. 'One of his fields
was not shown on the plan.
The Committee decided that the standing orders, in this
instance, had not been complied with.
The next was a similar allegation against that part of the
plan numbered 115.
The allegation was sustained ; several allegations • were
overruled.
The next allegation was, that the plans did not show the
crossings of several highways in the county of Gloucester,
and that many of them numbered on the plans were not-
shown on the cross sections.
The Committee were of opinion that the allegation was
not sustained.
Several allegations against the plans, with regard to mis-
description of property, were sustained.
The next allegation was that the promoters had numbered
property en the plans as belonging to the Marquis of Ailes-
bury, whereas, in point of fact, it belonged to a Mr. Everett.
Mr. Everett examined—The promty in question be-
longed to him, and not to the Marquis of Ailesbur tiy. The
Noble Lord's property adjoined his, but there was a boundary
which divided their field..
Mr. ELLICOMBE called Mr. Collins—ls agent to the Mar-
quis of Ailesbury. He had a plan of the Noble Lord's
property, which showed that certain fields in the occupation
of Mr. Everett belonged to the estate of the Marquis. The
pl_an, it was true, was twenty years old, but it was shown to
Mr. Everett when the promoters went over the ground, and
he did not object to that plan. Witness understood it to be
the property of the Noble Lord.
The Committee were of opinion that the standing orders
had not been complied with.
The CHAIRMAN said he would report specially to the
House the circumstances connected with this non-com-
pliance.
The Committee then adjourned till twelve o'clock to-
morrow.

LONDON, FRIDAY, ispdiRIJARY 20, 1846.

Their Lordships met at Five o'clock.

Lord DACRE presented a petition in favour of a
repeal of the corn-laws, but asking inquiry into the pro-
ceedings of the Anti-Corn-law League.
The; Earl of KINNAIRD said that the Anti-Corn-law
League were only acting constitutionally, and courted
inquiry into their proceedings.
The Earl of RosEBERY presented a petition from
Linlithgow in favour of the total and immediate repeal
of the corn-laws.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE postponed the presenta-
tion of the petition,

The Earl of ABERDEEN was glad o se that the
Noble Lord had left the Eastern for the ern World.
The war in the River de la Plate was not only wicked
but sewieless. Everything had been done by England
to put an end to such a fruitless warfare, but without
effect. England and France were united on this subject,
having no other object in view but to unite all parties.
He could assure the House that on this subject the
United States disavowed the whole of the proceedings
of their agents. General Rosas had made fresh pro-
posals on this subject ; they were not admissible at pre-
sent, but he thought they woull lead to the settlement
of this question. Under these circumstances, he hoped
the Noble Lord would not press for the production of
the pa;ers.
After some observations from Lord COLSIIESTER and
the Duke of WELLINGTON, the motion was withdrawn.
A message from the Commons brought up the Grand
Jury (Ireland) Presentment Bill and the Drainage (Ire-
land) Bill.
In answer to a question from Earl GREY, the Earl of
ST. GERMANS stated that on Monday next he should
state the grounds on which toe Government justified the
introduction of the Bill with respect to the pacification
of Ireland.

Several Bills were then forwarded a stage, and the
House adjourned.

The House of Commons met at Four o'clock.

Horsford, who is himself a very powerful man, was most

several fearful blows, was kicked with desperate violence.
Eventually he was conveyed to the station-house.

Mr. HODGSON moved that the Bill be read a third time
that day six months.
A long conversation, which at times partook rather of a re-
criminatory nature, and in which Sir W. Clay, Sir De Lacy
Evans, Mr. Ewart, Mr. Curteis, and Mr. Dancombe took
part, then ensued.
The gallery was ordered to be cleared for a division. On

Mr. LOCKHART protested against the decision as one
which would prevent a proper communication between England
and Scotland. All the merchants and bankers of Scotland
were in favour of the Caledonian Railway, which was granted
last session, and this decision was granting a competing
ine contrary to all common sense, for it was well known
that there was not sufficient traffic for both hoes,
and the result must be ruinous to both companies.
The cities of Glasgow and Edinburgh, the principal cities of
Scotland, and the people generally, with but few. exceptions,
were in favour of the Caledonian line. The evidence of Mr.
Brunel, which he would read an extract from,
would show that
the country was not of such a character as to support two lines
of railway. ( The Hon. Member then read an extract to the effect,
that the Caledonian line was the one best adapted for the wants
of the country and that. it would not support a second line of
railway. )—(Loud cries of °'. ') He would not
detain the House longer beyond. saying that the decision the
House had come to would materially interfere with the success
of a great national undertaking.
The Bill was then read a third time and passed.

GROUP IL

The Select Committee appointed to consider the merits of the Bills
comprised in this group re-assembled at the usual hour this morning,
Lord Morpeth in the chair.

TAW VALE EXTENSION.

The whole of the day was occupied by the landholders' opposition,
got up by the solicitors of the Great Western Company, who were
averse to the line. They contended that the bulk of the Barnstaple
traffic came through Bristol from the north, cad a line of this sort
ought, therefore, to run in the route of the North DMA, thus saving
a considerable distance between ilarnstaple and Bristol.

The opposition occupied the whole of the day, and the Committee
adjourned till to-morrow at twelve o'clock.

GROUP XIII.

The Committee met at the usual hour this raorning. Sir William
Clay in the chair.

CALEDONIAN EXTENSION.

Mr. Miller, the engineer. was called to prove that it would be
highly inexpedient to construct the proposed line. The whole of the
day, in tact, was taken up with evidence of this sort.
At the close of the opposition the room was cleared, and the Com-
mittee having remained a short while in consultation, the parties
were le-admitted, when _ _

The CHAIRMAN announced that it was the opinion of the Corn.
mittee that the preamble to the Caledonian Extension Railway Bill
was not proved.
This closed the Ipbours of the Committee.

GROUP XXXIII.

The Committee met this morning at eleven o'clock, in
Room No. 24 (Grand Corridor). Present, Sir Robert Fer-
guson (chairman), the Marquis, of Worcester, Viscount
Newry,.Mr. Smiler, and Mr. Fellowes.
They resumed the consideration of the competing lines, the
WARVIZCIESHIRE AND LONDON (THREE
MINES), AND THE BIRMINGHAM AND
oxronn JUNCTION.

The CIIAIR3IAN informed the parties that the Committee
had come to the determination to hear the evidence yester-
day tendered against the accuracy of the levels in the plans
deposited for the Worcester and Weedon line.

Mr. Hughes, the engineer, was then called, and being ex-
amined by Mr. Sergeant KINGLAKE, gave evidence to the
effect that the levels, in the plans deposited were so inac-
curate that the railway could not be constructed according
to those plans.
Mr. HILDYARD, for the Warwickshire and London, again
raised the objeition that this evidence was inadmissiMe.
After a prolonged discussion, during which the Committee
manifested considerable impatience—(if we may not say,
displeasure)—they yielded to the importunity of counsel,
and the room was cleared.

On the re-admission of the parties,
The CHAIRMAN stated that the Committee having given
every consideration to the objection, were unanimously of
opinion that the petitioners against the Worcester and
Weedon line should proceed with their evidence on the en-
gineering defects of that line.
London, England, 1846-06-27

GROUP XVIII.

LONDON, NEWBURY, AND BATH DIRECT.
The cross-examination of the engineer to this line was resumed
this stay. The difference in favour of the London, Newbury, and
Bath, over the proposed Wilts and Somerset line, would be about two
miles. The line went through a district more favourable for the
construction of a railway than the district selected by Mr. Brunel
for the line in connexion with the Great Western. The proposed line
would afford considerable acclinmodation for the carriage of coals.
