960,443/. ; Lancashire stands for 593,515/. ; Surrey for 191,0111. ;
Durham for 171,0191.; Derbyshire for 104,204/. ; and Yorkshire for
93,5191. The total amount of railway income in 1843 was, for Eng-
land and Wales, 5,417,6091., and Scotland, 181,333/. ; since which
period a material increase must have taken place. At the dete in
question no less than twenty Counties in England, and dye in Wales,
I were without railways.

TEE SLAVE TRADE.--The following is an extract
from a letter received from an officer, dated Saint Paul de Loanda,
January 23 :—" The mixed commission is held here, and several
vessels have been condemned, among which is an English brig, on
the ground that she had too much water on board. This seizure is
believed to have been altogether illegal, but you will hear enough of
it when the captain and crew arrive in England, where they key
been sent to take their trial. A large steam-vessel sailed a rho rt
time ago from Congo, with the enormous number of 1,700 slaves on
board. She was fitted out as a slaver in the Brazils, and of con rse
escaped, by reason of her speed, her )is esty's cruisers. The al eve
trade Is, bywoyerl Pat ittcliaug."

(YESTERDAY.)

HOUSE OF LORDS,

• Committee Wo. 5.
The Committee met this morning, Lord Selkirk eliaiimau.
IRISH GREAT WESTERTZ-2VIIDLAND
OR:g.IAT WESTERN.

Lord Seututx said the Connnittee had decided on reporting to the
Mouse that Bills should be passed for the construction of a line Qom
Portarlington to Galway, and a line from Mnllingar to Athbne,
strongly recommending a junction of the two lines at Athlone.
Sergeant WRANGUAN, on the part of the Mullingar Company, re •
quested their Lordship's to introduce clauses into both Bills which
would secnre the junction they had recommended.
Mr. TALBo'r opposed this, if it meant a fusion of the two Com-
panies; but if it had no other object than to secure the laying
down of rails between the two lines he had no business to interfere
with the wishes of the ether Company ; he would, however, Wed
to being compelled to come to Parliament next session, merely be-
cause the other, Company wished to construct that junction.
Sergeant WaaxonAn said he would submit such a clause as would
secure the objects of the Committee in the course of the day.
