RAIL WAY INTELLIGENCE.
GREAT NORTHERN.—Since its opening last month the
traffic has worked with great regularity, and though con-
siderable, particularly in the item of goods, it has been
found, owing to the intricate character of the returns,
impracticable to present it in the usual weekly form, in
the railway traffic list, with the other lines ; this will be
done in the course of a week or two. It has been a sub-
ject matter of remark that, since the opening, the receipts
of the York and North Midland have fallen off, owing to
the fact of the Great Northern lisle presenting, from the
north and from Hull, a shorter route of transit over any
that pre existed, though it is thought probable that much
of this falling off may be attributed to the general de-
crease in travelling, arising from commercial depression.
The new line has already proved itself of great advantage
to the agriculturists of Lincoln, as well as to the fishing
trade of Hull. 1 cwt. of fish may now be taken from
Hull to London, in eight or nine hours, for the sum of
Zs. 6d. - _ .

COVENTRY AND NUNEATON.--The London and North-
Western have made a further call of 3/. on the 13/ 10s.
shares of this line, ten miles long, in which they are in-
terested subsidiarily and by subscription to the extent
of 270,0001.
NORTH-WESTERN.—Another two miles of this line,
which runs from Skipton, and unites the Leeds and
Bradford with the Lancaster and Carlisle, has just been
opened. The works on the branch to Poulton are pro-
ceeding actively. The part just opened gives access to
large slate quarries.
SOUTH YORKSHIRE RAILWAY. The works of this
line of railway are being proceeded with very rapidly
and satisfactorily, in the neighbourhood of Conis-
borough and Levit Hagg especially. At the latter place
the work is extremely heavy and tedious, the massive
rock being to blast and cut the immense depth of up-
wards of seventy feet. A singular occurrence has taken
place in the formation of this line near to Warmsworth
Church, where it crosses a valley parallel with the river
