ton. His estimate for a similar distance traversed by the
Manchester and Southampton, and taking in the important
town of Andover, was only 494,0001. For the 494,000/.
the line might be made .from Marlborough to Romsey, a
distance of thirty-seven miles and a half, besides saving four
miles in distance. The gradients on Lacy's line were lin
80, and those on the Manchester and Southampton 1 in 100,
and had better curves and less tunnelling. Went over the
line, and rejected it.on account of the better route he selected
by Andover, and on account of the opposition of landowner 3.
Bethel's line was equally open to objection, as it was longer
between those parts, and more expensive on account of the
extreme heaviness of the earthworks, and the great length of
tunnelling, there being as much as on' the London and Bir •
mingham.
The Committee adjourned until Monday.

GROUP XVIII.
The Committee met at twelve, Mr. B. D 011.8311 in the chair.

The Committee assembled this day, and, after a brief re•
capitulation of the evidence which was given before the Corn•
mittee of the House of Commons, they decided that the
preamble was proved, alt opposition being withdrawn. There
was, however, one clause in the Bill which was to be sub-
mitted to the consideration of the Earl of Shaftesbury, that
it may be made consistent with the regulation of the House
of Lords.

-YORIESHIRE AND LINCOLNSHIRE COlll-

IVIUNICATION.

The Committee on the Sheffield and Lincolnshire Junction,
and the Manchester, Midlands, and Great Grimsby Commu-
nication, re assembled this morning, at eleven o'clock, when
The evidence of Mr. Vignoles, the engineer of the line,
was taken, but it varied little from that of the other line, and
showed that it was only seven-eighths of a mile longer than
its opponent. He went through a long examination and cross-
examination, the end of which was to show that the gradients
on the line were unusually favourable for the country through
which it passed, thld that• the viaducts were not only less
numerous, but also hardly half the height of those
which were formed on the neighbouring lines.
He spoke also to the facility of the management
of the Company, and stated that there had been such
arrangements made as would entirely prevent anything like
impediment to the transit of merchandise from London and
the west through the whole of this line of communication,
while on the other side there were no less than six different
Companies to be combined for the accomplishment of one
object.
The long cross- examination which this gentleman went
through seemed in no way to affect his evidence.
Mr. Hawkshaw, who appeared in the place of Mr. Braith-
waite, who is engaged to construct the line, but who is con-
fined by illness, confirmed the prinCipal points adduced by
Mr. Vignoles.
Mr. BAINES, Q.C., then addressed their Lord,hips at con-
siderable length, rerapitulating the chief facts which had
been adduced by the witnesses, dwelling particularly on the
assent of the noblemen and men of large property, who were
assentients to the line of the Sheffield and Lincolnshire Junc-
tion Company.
At the close of his address the room was cleared, and on
the re-admission of parties,
The CHAIRMAN stated that the Committee had decided in
favour of the Sheffield and Lincolnshire line, and against its
opponent; but full justice was to be done to the opposing
landowners.

GROUP XVII.
The Committee met at the usual hour.

MANCHESTER AND SOUTHAMPTON.

LONDON, TX.EUTM:73IIr, AND BATH.
Mr. MERREWETHER stated to the Committee that the pro •
moters had closed their evidence, and now left the case with
the Committee; but after tho very plain intimation they had
had from the Committee, they expected nothing else than
that the Bill should be negatived, and his clients now assented
that it should be so.
The CILS.IRMAN said it was for the promoters themselves to
withdraw their Bill or to continue their evidence before the
Committee, as they chose.
Mr. MERREWETIIER said they had closed their case, and
now asked for the decision of the Committee, but with no
sanguine hope that the preamble of the Bill would be
passed.
The CHAIRMAN wished to know of Sergeant Wrangham,
what course it was meant to pursue with regard to the other
Bills before the Committee, as in ordinary. circumstances the
Committee would not have given any decision until they had
the evidence given on the other schemer. But he begged it
distinctly to be understood, that whatever arrangement might
have been come to between the present company and the Wilts,
Somerset, and Weymouth, the. Committee would not in any
way be guided or influenced by that arrangement. Although
this opposition was withdrawn, the Committee would cer-
tainly not pass the other as an unopposed Bill.
Sergeant WRANGIIAM said that an arrangement had been
come to between the two compani"the London, Newbury, and
Bath, and the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth, in consequence
of what had fallen from the Corkmiltee,
.who. as a body, had
suggested an arrangement betwtcm them., no did not mean
to-imply that the Committee had committed themselves as
parties to any arrangement, but he said an arrangement had
been come to, based on the intimations of the Committee,
and that his clients withdrew their opposition in consequence.
The Committee gave no decision, and proceeded to hear
evidence in the case of the

WILTS, SOMERSET, AND WEYMOUTH.
Mr. Austin, Mr. Denison, and Mr. Slade, are retained for
the promoters of the line, and Mr. Hill, Q.C., Mr. Cockburn,
Q.C., and Mr. Merrewether, appear against it, on petitions
from the South-Western Railway, the Southampton and
Dircheiter Railway, the London, Salisbury, and Yeovil
Railway, from the inhabitants of Wareham, Andover, Salis-
bury,, and, Exeter, and from Mr. F. T. Egerton.
Mr. DENISON, in 'opening the merits of the schemes, said
the Bill was for extensions and deviations on the Wilts,
Somerset,,and Weymouth line, which was passed last year."
The first was the Weymouth Quay Extension, a rail 71,2
furlongs in length, carrying down the terminus from
Weymouth to Weymouth Harbour; it was proposed
in consequence of a requst from the merchants
of the place, and was unopposed, The second
was the Herringstone Deviations, near Dorchester, ex-
tending four miles and 12 chains, and intended for the
accommodation of landowners; it was unopposed. The third
was the Frome Deviation, by which it was intended to carry
the rail of the main line nearer that town than it was at
present, being six miles and 25 chains long. The fourth
was the Redstock Branch, a quarter of a mile in
length, and was unopposed. The fifth was the
Bishopstoke Junction to Salisbury, effecting a junc-
tion between the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth line at
Salisbury, and the Great Western at Bishopstoke, by which
the Bristol and Bath people could be conveyed down to
Southampton. It was a junction advised by the Board
of Trade in their report of last year, and was two
miles five furlongs long. The sixth was the
Laycock deviation for the accommodation of landowners,
and the Corsham extension, to effect a junction with the
Great Western. The seventh was the Bath branch, between
Bradford and Bath, which had been :projected after
the company had been memorialised to that effect by
the towns in the neighbourhood, and in consequence
of the recommendation of the Board of Trace, who had also
been memorialised on the subject. The eighth was the De-
vizes branch, which was intended to run nearly due west
from that town, and join the main line near Bradford, by
which a more direct communication would be opened be-
tween Devizes, and Bradford, and Bath, the old branch to
near Miltsham being abandoned for this. The estimate for
these branches, in addition to the capital of the existing
line, was 240,0001.
Mr. Brunel, the engineer of the line, was called, and evi-
dence having been heard, the room was ordered to be
cleared.
The Committee, after consulting, intimated that the pre-
amble of the Bill was proved for all the branches, except for
that between Bishopstoke and Salisbury, which was not
passed ; and that the prearOble of the London, Newbury, and
Bath Bill was not proved.
ThecCommittee then went through the clauses of the Bill,
and adjourned.
This concludes the group.

GROUP XXXVIII.
The Committee met at twelve; Mr. Acton in the chair.
WEST SIDING UNION (No. IL)

Evidence was continued this morning in favour of the line.
Mr. Horn, at the conclusion of the case for the promoters,
addressed the Committee against the project on behalf of the
Huddersfield and Manchester (Bradford branch).
The room was ordered to be cleared.
The CHAIRMAN informed parties on their re-admission that
be decision of the Committee was, that the preamble of the
We,t Riding Union (No. 2) Bill was proved, and that of the
Huddersfield and Manchester (Bradford branch) Bill was not
proved.
The Committee having gone through such clauses of 'the
West Riding Bill as were unopposed, adjourned till to-morrow
at twelve.

GROUP XLVIII.
THE TAMP VALE.
The Committee un this Group met at twelve to-day, Mr.
Aldam, chairman.
➢lr. Sergeant WRANGilinu opened the case for the preamble
of the above Bill. After a brief address, the Learned Ser-
geant called witnesses in support of the merits of the line.
The opposition to the Bill is expected to be arranged.

Contents :—How to ensure perfect digestin, tranquil feelings, a
good night's rest, a clear head, and a contented mind. By an ob-
servance of the instructions herein contained, the feeble, the ner-
vously delicate, even to the most shattered constitution, may acquire
the greatest amount of ph;sical happiness, and reach in health the
full• period of life allotted to man.
" How we sho,ild live—what eat, what drink, what shun,
To reach in health foil threescore Years and ten."

Mr. Tew, who had been a contractor at Southampton, and
Captain Bowyer, gave evidence in favour of the opposition
of Mr. Roe—namely, that the railway would run in front of
his wharf, and that it would cut off access to his " water
frontage." The last witness considered that a better termi •
nos than the one proposed might be made at King John's
Pond, because it would serve both railways, and because in-
terference with the pier and quays would be obviated. He
admitted, however, that he was a shareholder in the South-
Western.
Mr. Canning, a tenant of property in Ogborne St. George,
in vk iltshire, stated that the line would intersect it for three
miles, and interfere with its best parts, and that a better line
might be obtained by a slight deviation.
Mr. Bryce, boat-builder, and tenant of the West Quay, at
Southampton, stated that the line would cut off a portion of
the quay, and injure the ferry.
In his cross-examination he stated the West Quay was in
a ruinous condition—that a stranger would not,on first seeing
it, think that it was a quay at all, and that the ferry-boats
started every quarter of an hour.
Mr. SMITH said he stated in his address to the Committee
the other day, that there would be a considerable saving by
adopting the deviation line. What he meant to say
was this, that the difference of saving would be
upon the land, and not upon the works. As Mr.
Brunel considered that the accuracy of the sections prepared
under his direction of the Oxford and Rugby was challenged,
he had investigated them, and not only found that they
were strictly correct, but that the sections prepared by the
engineers of the Manchester and Southampton were incor-
rect in the levels, and that the estimate ought to be increased
to the extent of 2000/.
After some discussion,
The CHAIRMAN said, as the sections had already been
before two Committees—the Committee on Petitions and the
present Committee, and as the opponents of the line
had cross-examined the witnesses at great length with re-
spect to them, and their accuracy not disputed, the Commit-
tee would not further investigate them. They wished to
have the accuracy of the sections of the deviated line by
Ludgers-hall verified, which Mr. Locke did in a very few
words.
Mr. Meek, Mr. Locke's assistant, stated that the sections
of that deviation were perfectly correct.
This closed the case on the part of the landowners.
Mr. ALEXANDER said he was most unwilling to interfere
with the arrangements or duties of any Hon. Member—(the
Chairman stated a few days ago that he should be absent on
Thursday and Friday, in order to fulfil his engagements as a
chairman of the Quarter Sessions)—but unless the case
on all sides was closed on Friday they would be unable to
get their Bill into the House of Lords this session.
The CHAIRMAN, after consulting the other members of the
Committee, said the Committee darirg the whole of the.
period they had sat had felt this difficulty; that the evidence
iu.cluced before them proceeded from parties interested either
in the Great Western or South-Western Railways. Now
what they wished was, that some impartial person, uncon-
nected with either of these lines, should be brought before
them, to state that the line was required by the wants of the
district throwill which it was proposed to traverse.
The Counsel for the promoters of the line appeared em-
barrassed at this proposition, and declared that they knew
not where to obtain more impartial evidence than that they
had adduced.
After some conversation as to what course the parties and
the Committee should adopt,
The CHAIRMAN said the Committee would require some
time to go over the evidence and to come to their decision ;
therefore it would be impossible to finish the case and give
their decision by Friday.
Other members of the Committee said it would be also
necessary to consult the Board of Trade.
Mr. Sergeant WRANGIIAM applied to the Committee to sit
on Saturday, on which day both himself and Mr. Hill would
commence and finish their address.
The CHAIRMAN said the members of the Committee had
made arrangements which precluded their sitting on that

These interesting little volumes, although tearing upon subjects of
very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea-
surable and general utility, for they tell of matters every living crea-
ture able to understan I ought to know, but which information in
these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through
questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount.
In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of
nature, of human disappointments and their ways of' relief, it is not
contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician
any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we
should know the simple principles of our owu organization, the laws
whereby our existence and the issue thereot in their several healthy
states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual
capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and
happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely.
By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted,
health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness
within the attainment of all, by the availment hereof in fulfilling
our duty to ourselves, we secure the lili e advantages on our offspring
to follow, and finally by the cultivation if our faculties, which is in-
consistent with degenerate health, the mini as well as the body.may
be exulted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest
of God's creations.

GROUP LIII.
This Committee met at eleven o'clock this morning, in
Room 26 (Grand Corridor, New Houses of Parliament). Pre-
sent, the Hon. E. Lascelles (chairman ), the Earl of Arundel
and Surrey, Mr. R. Clayton, and Captain Dalrymple.
IMMINGHAM, WOLITERHAIVEPTON, AND
DUDLEY.
Mr. M'Lean, the engineer of the line, gave the remainder
of his evidence this morning as to the general description of
the line. The worst gradient on the line, he said, was one in
100. The length of the first tunnel was 605 yards, and
of the second 340 yards; but in these there would
not be required any peculiar system of ventilation,
The amount of, the estimated cost of the line was 618,4181.
The expense of working the line would be 401. per cent. on
the gross receipts, and on the whole he believed that it
would be worked with advantage to the shareholders and the
public.
Mr. Saunders gave the formal proofs required by the House
on the 30th of April last.
Mr. Kershaw gave an account of the number of shares
subscribed for, &c.
In reply to Mr. Laing,
Mr. COCKBURN, Q.C., said that his clients were not pre-
pared to acquiesce in the arrangements made on the previous
day, unless the party whom Mr. Laing represented consented
to abandon the Stour Valley.
Mr. LAING said his clients would not not do any such
thing.
Mr. COCKBURN—Then we cannot acquiesce in the arrange-
ment, and will oppose you to the utmost.
The preamble of the Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and
Dudley Bill (as altered) was eventually declared ;o be
proved.
