NOTICE TO MARINERS.
Swedish and Norwegian Consulate-General,
Sir.— I have the honour
translation of an ordinance issued by the Royal Navy Board at Stock-
holmtoCrosby-square,
on the '2nd inst.: The Royal Navy Board hereby makes known
for the information of Mariners, that the following Lighthouses will
be constructed in the course of the present year.
1. The two coal Lighthouses placed on the Rock Nidingen,
situated in the Kattegat, lat. 59 degrees 19 minutes N., and ion.
30. degrees 6 minutes E. of Ferre. or 11 degrees 56 minutes E.
of Greenwich, will be rebuilt, the towers considerably raised, and
lentille lights of the third class placed therein. The rebuilding will
be commenced In April, and during the interval, until the new lights
can be exhibited, a sideral lamp will be suspended from each of the
towers, throwing its light towards tho Kattegat. It is expected that
the alterations will be completed by the Ist of October this year, and
the lentilles exhibited; but in case, from any unexpected impediment,
this cannot be effected, the provisional lamp will remain daring the
winter until the new lights will be ready.
2. The erection of the lighthouse will be commenced this spring

on a reek called Klafaen, and which will be provided wit)t a revolv-
ing reflector light. The period for lighting, as well as the revolving
time and bearing of the last mentioned lighthouse, will in due time

were very difficult of sale. Superfine Malt moved off freely, at ex-

Although the amount of business transacted in our market during
the present week has been by no means extensive, prices, from the

AILWAY COMMITTEES.

(THIS DAY.)

Sub-Committee, No. 1.

This Committee resumed its sittings to-day at twelve o'clock, its
Room No. 7 ; Mr. Strutt in the Chair.
GRAND UNION.

This adjourned case was the first called on.

Mr. Burke appeared for the promoters ; and Mr. Thomas, from
Dorrington and Hayward's, appeared for the petitioners against
the Bill.

Several of the allegations submitted, were declared by the Com-
mittee to be most frivolous, and of no possible service to the case for
the opposition. A few of them were allowed and others overruled.

Mr. BuaiE objected to the allegations contained in one part of the
petition being heard, inasmuch as one of the consenting parties to the
petition had withdrawn his name from it.
Mr. Thomas could not consent to such a proceed-
ing. The party who had signed the petition, it would
appear, had: been compensated by the promoters, and that
alone caused him to withdraw his opposition. Now he was
of opinion that the petitioner having withdrawn his name from the
petition, could not admit of the allegations being withdrawn, inas-
m

inch as the petition had come to the Committee from the

House of Commons, and was therefore the property of
the House. Had the petitioner been willing to withdraw
his opposition, he ought to have petitioned the House to that effect,
and failing so to do, he had no control over the petition. He, there-
fore, submitted that the proposition of his Hon. Friend could not be
entertained.

The room was then cleared, and after half-an-hour's deliberation,
the parties were called in and informed by
The enAmur(' that the Committee' had given their most
attentive consideration to the question, in consequence of the bearing
it would be likely to have on other Bills. The Committee regretted
that the standing order was not more clear upon the point, but they
were of opinion, that where a party was willing to withdraw
an opposition, the allegations in such petition only affecting his own
property, he could do so without petitioning the House to that effect.
The most proper coarse would be to petition the Rouse for power to
withdraw that petition ; but, under the circumstances of the case,
the Committee were of opinion that the petition in the present case
could be withdrawn.

The petition was then withdrawn, and the Committee declared
that the standing orders had been complied with, except in a few in-
stances of imperfect notices to parties whose property was on the
line.
