[ADVERTISEMENT.J—BOTANIC WATER AND BEAR'S
GREASE.—When the hair is becoming thin, and falling off,
the only effectual remedy, besides shaving the head, is the use
of the two above-named articles, applied alternately—the bo-
tanic water to cleanse the roots from scurf and as a stimulant,
and the bear's grease as a nourisher. If any further evidence
was requir.d of the virtues of bear's grease for renovating and
preserving the hair, Mr. Catlin's account of the quantity used,
and the length of hair obtained by some of the North Ame-
rican Indians, would be a sufficient answer. Ross and Sons,
119, and 120, Bishopsgate-street, who first introduced the use
of bear's grease in this country, and who fat and kill the ani-
mals, recommend the public to purchase none other but with
their names and address printed on the pot, or the chances are
their obtaining a spurious article. All vegetable oils applied to
the hair are worse than useless.
CRUEL ROBBERY BY A YOUTH.—At the Ilford Petty
Sessions on Saturday, James Hatfield, the son of a drover, re-
siding in Whitechapel, was placed at the bar charged with
obtaining a sum of money from a poor woman residing at
Stratford, under false pretences. Elizabeth Purkes the wife
of a Smithfield drover, residing in Boyce-yard, Stratford,

DItOSSAN,

The preamble of which was, it will be remembered, passed on
Thursday, the Committee having adjourned till to-day, to give time
for an arrangement among the patties.
The Counsel on either side having been enable to agree, and being
still unable to settle their differences, occupied their Lordships for
some time in a fruitless discussion, which ended in their leaving the
room to make an arrangement amongst themselves.

The disputed clauses-being settled on the return of the counsel,
this Bill was passed finally. The Committee proceeded with the
CamASGOW, DAREIIEAD, AND N:aIIESTON.

Mr. AUSTIN opened the ca:,e, and called several witnesses whose
examination occupied the Committee up to four o'clock, at which
hour they rose, and adjourned till to-morrow at eleven.

EnrivnußGEt AND NOILTHETZN.
(Continued from our Afternoon Edition.)
The case for the promoters occupied the Committee up to four
o'clock, when the Committee rose and adjourned till to-morrow,
with the understanding that Mr. Hope would not call any more wit-
nesses.

Room D.
SVIINTON AND LINCOLN.

This Committee resumed its sitting at eleven o'clock in Room D ;
all the Members present.
Mr. Demsoti addressed their Lordships at considerable length
against the proposed line, which is a branch of the Doncaster, Wake-
field, and Leeds, on behalf of Sir Joseph Copley, whose mansion
would be incommoded by the proximity to the line, which was tes-
tified to by Lord Francis Egerton, Lord Grey, Mr. Charles Wood,
M.P., Mr. Denison, M.P., and several other 'witnesses, though it was
admitted to Mr. Hildyard that a. wall might be built so as to shut
out the railway from the dwelling and grounds; after which
Mr. Serjeant WEAN-Guest addressed the Committee on behalf of
the London and York Railway, urging their Lordships to defer their
decision till next session, when the merits of the South York line
would have been brought before their Lordships, and a fairer estimate
of the merits of the competing lines wont,' then be arrived at.
Mr. HILDTABD contended that a great injustice would be in-
flicted on the public if their Lordships suffered the South York
line, which had been rejected by a Committee of the other House,
to interrupt their deciston with regard to the Swinton and Lincoln,
which was to connect four towns with large populations, namely,
Doncaster, Sheffield. Rotherham, and Barnsley, by 1014 miles only
of railway. Rotherham was the greatest cattle-market in the north
of England, and the coal for 4 orb miles round Barnsley was ten
feet thick, of excellent quality, and low in price. A preference would
not be given to the Derbyshire coal as had been alleged, and the
company were ready to do anything in reason to remove Sir Joseph
Copley's objections.
Mr. DENISON stated that even were Sir Joseph Copley not con-
nected with the' South York nothing would reconcile him to the pro-
posed line.
The Committee deferred their decision, and intimated that they
would to-morrow morning take the Sheffield and Lincolnshire line,
which also asserts its right to be considered a competing line.
Their Lbrdships then adjourned at a quarter-past four o'clock.
