lAILWAY COMMITTEES,
(THIS DAY)

No. 2.
This Committee metSub-Committee to-day shortly after twelve o'clock; present
Sir J. Y. Buller (Chairman), Mr. G. Craig, Mr. Kemble, Mr. Bell,
and Mr. Bramstone.
DIRECT LONDON AND MANCHESTER..
The Committee resumed the consideration of the remaining alle-
gations in the second petition against this Bill.
The petition alleged that in the plan deposited with the clerk of
the peace for Hereford, the piece of ground adjoining No. 70, and
marked 68, was not marked on the said plan.
There was another allegation, and the Committee found that in
both cases the standing orders had not been complied with.
It was alleged that the boundaries of the counties of Derby and
Stafford were not marked on the plans deposited with the clerks of
the peace for the said counties, which was not sustained.
It was further alleged that certain portions of land through which
the line wats to pass, numbered 1,2, 3, were omitted in the books of
reference, and that there was a similar omission in the section
marked 34, in the parish of Tutbury, both of which were admitted.
The next allegation was that the property marked No. 128, within
the limits of deviation, was not in the books of reference or in the
plan depositedin the Private Bill-office, which was sustained.
It was aleged that numbers 2 and 3, in the county of Stafford,
and the properties 8 and 9, were not marked in the manner required
by the Act of Parliament. These allegations were sustained, the
former being admitted.
The next allegation was that the property No. 136, and adjoining
No. 135, was not marked on the plan deposited in the Private Bill-
office.

It was contended on the part of the promoters that the ground in
question was included in section marked No. 138.
The CHAIRMAN considered that this plea could not avail the parties,
and, therefore, the Committee were of opinion that the standing
orders had not been complied w ith in this case.

Sub-Committee, No. 4,
The Committee met at twelve o'clock ; present Sir W. Heath-
cote (Chairman), and Messrs. Evans, Shirley, and Legh—and pro-
ceeded with the consideration of the Bills on the list.
THE DONCASTER, vrAzzrxELD, ANa
LEEDS

Was again postponed, as Air. CubiTt,---the engineer to the line, could
not produce his original estimates of the expense, but only copies of
them, at present:

DERBY AND CREWE JUNCTION.
This is a Bill to make a line from Derby to Crewe, with a branch
to Burton-upon-Trent, and forming junctions with the Midland
Counties and Grand Junction Railways. The estimated cost is
950,000/. ; the length of the line is 46 miles, and that of the branch
five miles. Messrs. Locke and Meek are the engineers ; Messrs.
Dyson and Co., tke Parliamentary agents; and Messrs. Simpson and
Co., the solicitors.
There were against this Bill ne less than five petitioners, but rill
appearance was made in support of either of them, and the Com.-
mittee therefere desired Mr. Coates (who appeared for the proMoterB)
to proceed with his case.
Mr. CoATEs said that as this was an opposed Bill, he thought it
hardly fair to take advantage of the absence of the petitioners. Be
only expected one appearance to be made, and that was on the pair
of Mr. Joseph Parkes, a landowner in Derby.
The Cniaattex said that surely, if it was intended to oppose
the Bill, there must be some person present who would be
able to amount for the absence of the petitioners, and if so, they
ought to come forward.

As nobody did come forward the case was proceeded with, and the
usual formal proMb having been given, the Committee declared the
standing orders complied with.

Sub-Committee No. 6.

This Committee resumed its sittings at half•past twelve o'clock
this day. Present, Captain Jones (in the chair), Mr. gdvrard Buller,

FRENCH PLAYS-ST. JAMES'S
THEATRE.
M. Felix, perhaps the most finished vaudeville actor of the day,
made his debut here last evening, as Robin, in Les Men oires du
Diable. He is certainly a great actor, possessing, in a superemlnent
degree, the power of so throwing himself into his part as to lose as it
were all personal identity. He is an artiste of the highest order, hls
style being exquisitely relined, and thoroughly and completely
polished ; he is at the same tuna as effervescent as champagne, and
in his general style renlineled us of what Ralston was in his beat
days. He is, moreover, an excellent singer, and " makes tip"t
ad-
mirably. Of
success was complete, and to all lovers reallyvisit intel-

to be appreciated by the public.—Greenock Advertiser.
