"Of human ills and frailties I discourse.
Those taught by nature, arid by art acquied.
Of grletls conceard, and disappointments keen,
Which youth; and gentle, the matured and sage,
The lonely and :he mated—all sustain.
In kindly spirit, h. rein counsel's giv'n,
How health, how hope, how happiness to gain."

With Diet Tables tbrall Complaints. -
Contents : How to ensure perfect digestion, tranquil feelings, a
good night's rest, a clear head, and a contented mind. By an ob-
servance of the instructions herein containe the feeble, the ner-
vously delicate, even to the most shattered constitution, ;ray acquire
the greatest amount of phrsical happiness, and reach in health the
full period of life allotted to man.
" How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun,
To reach in health fall threescore years and ten."
These interesting little volumes, although tearing upon subjects of
very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be Mittel of immea-
curable and general utility, for they tell of matters everyliving crea-
ture able to understanl ought to know, but which information in
these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through
questionable channels, is 0 a very terrible discount.
. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of
nature, of human disappointments and their ways of rellef, 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 own organization, the laws
whereby our existence and the issne thereot in their. several healthy
states depend, the duties that are expected of ❑s 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 he 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 13 e advantages on our offspring
to follow, and finally by the cultivation tf our faculties, which is in-
consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may
be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest
• of Cod's creations.
The author's justitic:lion for this seeming eulogy of his own writ-
ings, and the avowal of their integrity of purpose, must be measured
by their perusal—his accredited qualifications guarantee that the
topics broached involve his legitimate study and pursuit.

RAI LW AY COMMIT EES
(YESTERDAY).

HOUSE OF LORDS.
Room D.

The members of this Committee re assembled to-day at
eleven o'clock.

lIDSWICH AND BURT ST. EDMUND'S
(NORWICH EZTE,NSION).
Mr. George B. Bidder was re-called for the purpose of
answering some questions respecting the shares in the dif-
ferent lines of railway which he had projected in this district,
which terminated the case against the Bill.
Mr. Sergeant WRANGHAM said that it then became his
duty to address to their Lordships such observations as might
appear to him necessary to put the case before them with
regard to the evidence-in that light in which it should be
viewed. Their Lordships laboured under a misfortune with
respect to this line, which the other tribunal before whom
this Bill was tried were free from, namely, that they had
not had all the rival schemes before them. Had this been
otherwise, they would have had an opportunity of weighing
in the balance with to. somA of the
,chemes for the same purpose which had been
referred to by air. Bidder and the company he
represented. Now it was in evi.ience before the Com-
mittee that the scheme then before them was calcu-
late, to give accommodation to the same district, and to
afford ample remuneration to the promoters. It had been
stated by Mr. Bidder yesterday that such was not the case,
but that it. was true of the schemes with which he (Mr.
Bidder) was associated,
Mr. AUSTIN said that he was just informed that his friend,
Mr. Bidder, had received by telegraph an account that an
express had arrived at Yarmouth iuyitee hours and a halt;
including etoppages.
Mr. Sergeant Witasteutam said he was about to state to
their Lordships what was the amount of expense that would
be incurred by these rival schemes. Why, the cost of the
first line was 440,0001.; of the second line, trout. Thetford to
Redham, 480,0001. Then there was the coast line, the
Ipswich Norwich, and Yarmouth. the capital of which was
11,950,0001. There was another line from Thetford to New-
market,the cost of which would be 350,000!.. making a total of
2,465,000!. of shares for the accommodation that district,
which, with the 40,000/. required for the establishment of a
station at Norwich, and the money they woryihi be entitled to
borrow, give altogether a sum of 3,333,0001. Such
was the sum this rival Company required to
gave the advantage of railway facility of transit to Norwich,
Ipswich, Yarmouth, and Stowmai ket. The present project
woulet cffect this object by a direct line, except with a slight
deviat jot to accommodate the important town of Stowmarket,
for a cost of little more than half a million. He should call
the attention of their Lordships to a mistake which ha,l been
committed by the only witness agai ist the Bill, -Mr. Bid:er.
That gentleman, in dealing with the question, as regarded
Yarmouth, said that he was desirous in his schemes to
connect the centre of Suffolk with Norfolk, whereas
the point to which he alluded was not in the
centre, or even the county of Suffolk. Mr. Bidder
had also stated to their Lordships in his evidence that,
though he did not think Yarmouth entitled to a per-
fectly direct line, yet that he did think it might justly re-
quire the second best line at the point he had mentioned,
namely, Di s. Now, the present scheme did give that second
best line. After some further observations as to the evi-
dence in support of the Bill, the Learned Counsel concluded
by calling on the Committee to declare the preamble proved.
The room was then cleared, and on our re-admission,
The CHAIRMAN announced that the preamble of the Bill
was proved.
