TILE NEWSPAPER PRESS 337 DIRECTORY characterises this
Journal as the " Ablest" of the " Popular Papers." It says there
is no " Paper conducted with more talent or success," and that
"It Is especially remarkable, not only for the great quantity of
news It affords, and the admirable arrangement of its matter,—well
illustrated by accompanying observations,—but for the ability and
variety of its original articles, In the form of leaders and letters.
The advantage of this ability is enhanced by its being displayed on
other than mere political questions, so that the range of topics Is
more large and generally interesting. Thus it is worth mentioning,
that it was the only paper which, during the late controversy be-
tween the Press and the Bar, took up the case of the latter, in a
series of letters marked by great talent."

THE ALFORD VALLEY LINE.

----
Mr. CRAWFOItD opened the case for the promoters of tkis Bill
which was for nip-icing a branch of the Great North of Scotland Rail-
way up ;the Alford Valley to Charleton. The length of the line,
which would accommodate a rich and extensive agricultural district,
was 16 miles, and the estimate was 100,0001. The line was only
opposed by one landowner, who was represented by Mr. Whate-
ley,Q. C. _ .

- -
The opposition, after a short discussion, was arranged, and ulti-
mately withdrawn, when the Committee virtually declared the
preamble to be proved, subject to the conditions which had been
agreed upon between the parties.
London, England, 1846-05-16

EASTERN EXT.ENSZON.

The next Bill brought under the consideration of the Committee,
R as, for making the Eastern Extension of the Great North of Scot-
land Railway. The line was proposed for accommodating the dis-
tricts between Dyce to Peterhead and Frazerburg, a distance of 46
miles. The estimate for the line was 400,0001. and the working ex-
penses were calculated at the rate of 331. per cent. per annum.
Mr. Gibb, the engineer of the line, having proved that the engi-
neering features were highly favourable, a witness residing in the
locality of the line, was called to speak to the importance of the line,
and to prove that the majority of the inhabitants were favourable to
its passing.
The Committee declared the preamble to have been proved.
MOILANSHIRE.

The next sill taken by the Committee was for making ihe Moray-
shire Railway from the harbour of Lossiemouth up the valley of the
Spay, joining the Great North of Scotland Railway at a point near to
Elgin.
Mr. Gunn, the gentleman who laid out the line, proved there were
no tunnels, deep cuttings, or engineering difficulties on the lino.
The line was 23 miles in length, and would cost 63,0004
Witnesses having been called to prove the advantages of the line to
the district through which it passed,
The Committee declared the preamble to have been proved.
This closed the labours of the Committee.

Bristol—and he was not there to deny such a necessity, or to oppose
the laying down of the narrow gauge between those points—bnt he
maintained that the proper way to effect this was by having
a mixed guage— a narrow guage combined with the broad.
The Learned Gentleman concluded by calling on the Committee if
they passed the Bill to pass it conformly with the arguments he had
adduced. lie would call Mr. Brunel to show that there would be
neither difficulty nor danger in having a mixed gauge.
Mr. Brunel was then examixed—He considered that the laying
down of narrow gauge lines within the broad would answer the
whole purpose sought by the Bill, and would not be dangerous. He
saw no necessity for the laying down of narrow gauge lines at the
side of the broad for this reason.
Mr. Vignoles agreed with Mr. Brunel that the narrow gauge could
lee laid down easily, and could be as easily and safely worked as if
it were an independent gauge. He considered Mr. R. Stephenson
prejudiced in favour of the bread gauge.
Mr. Cubitt gave similar testimony ; and Mr. Miller was called for
the same purpose, but the Committee considered it unnecessary to
multiply evidence on the point.
Mr. iiitaunders, the secretary to the Great Western, specified the
nature of the agreement between the two Companies.
The CHAIRMAN here intimated that the Committee would grant
the preamble of the Bill if the promoters would agree to lay down the
narrow within the broad gauge, in fact, agree to a mixed gauge.
Mr. HILDTARD declined to accede to the recommendation of the
Committee, and trusted that he should be able to show the Com-
mittee that a separate and entirely independent gauge was absolutely
necessary.

Sir T. Pniutps then addressed the Committee In opposition to the
lire on behalf of the Rev. Mr. Nibblet, who opposes the Bill on the
ground that it will interfere with his property to a greater extent
than two years ago, when the existing line was completed, and when
he was freed from the presence of the " naveys."
This closed the case on the part of the promoters.
Mr. finamittn then addressed the Committee, and reiterated his
arguments in favour of the Bill and an independent gauge.
The room was then cleared, and the Committee deliberated.
DECISION.

After a few minutes parties were admitted, when
The CEIIIIMAN intimated that the Committee were quite ready to
pass the Bill on the understanding that the narrow gauge should he
made in connexion with the broad; but as that proposition was not
acceded to they felt bound to reject the preamble of the Bill until to-
morrow.—Adjourned.

CORNWALL.

The members of thls Committee re-assembled to-day at eleven.
Mr. Rowe, on the part of the Central Devon and Cornwall line,
applied to the Committee with the view of obtaining permission to,
proceed with evidence to show that the bridge which the Cornwall
Company proposed to construct over the river Tamar, at Saltash,
was so low as to impede the navigation of the river.
This led to a discussion between the respective counsel, and the
Committee decided with respect to the construction of the bridge in
question, that it was a matter that rested solely with the Admiralty,
in whose hands the responsibility should remain.
The witnesses against the Bill having been exhausted, a delay of
considerable length ensued, till fresh witnesses could be sworn in.
The Committee having, then, heard some additienal evidence, ad-

Mr. T. M. GIBSON said the Bill would not in any
way affect the jurisdiction of the Cinque Ports, and he
trusted therefore the Hon. Gentleman would allow it to
pass through Committee without opposition.
The House then went into Committee on the Bill. The
whole of the clauses were agreed to, and the report was
ordered to be brought up on Friday (this day).
The House then adjourned at Eleven o'clock.

CORNIVALLL.

The members of this Committee re-assembled to-day at eleven.
Mr. ROWE, on the part of the Central Devon and Cornwall line,
applied to the Committee with the view of obtaining permission to
proceed with evidence to show that the bridge which the Cornwall
Company proposed to construct over the river Tamar, at Saltash,
was so low as to impede the navigation of the river.
This led to a discussion between the respective counsel, and the
Committee decided with respect to the construction of the bridge in
question, that it was a matter that rested solely with the Admiralty,
in whose hands the responsibility should remain.
The witnesses against the Bill having been exhausted, a delay of
considerable length ensued, till fresh witnesses could be sworn in.
The Committee haring, then, heard some additienal evidence, ad-
journed.

Cadogan, Sir Henry Webster, and the Marquis of Anglesey,
are expected next week. Lord Sandwich and family left

by it, when the animal was secured and killed in the street.

IMPORTANT DECISION.
SHEFFIELD, ROTHER.A2II, BARNSLEY,
WAKEFIELD, HUDDERSFIED, AND
GOOLE.
The Committee reassembled this morning at the usual hour in
No. 5, Abingdon. street, the Earl of Radnor In the chair.
The only witnesses examined to-day were Mr. Hindle and Mr.
Locke, civil engineers. The former deposed to the damage which the
line would cause Mr. Clarke's property, and the latter to the great
engineering difficulties which would attend its construction. lie also
expressed an opinion that the proposers never intended to carry it out,
but were merely promoting it to prevent the Barnsley Junction.
Sergeant WRANCIIIAIK addressed the Committee at great length, on
behalf of the opposition, and contended that the evidence submitted
was of such a character that the Committee could not sanction the
proposed line.
Mr. Sergeant WILKINS did not reply. There was nothing advanced
on the other side which would warrant him in fairing lip the time of
the Committee. . . . .

,
The case on behalf of the proposers and the opposition having new
closed,
The Cianufsie announced the decision of the Committee—" That
the preamble of the Sheffield, Rotherham, Barnsley, Wakefield,
Huddersfield, and Goole Railway was proved."
The Committee having thus dispatched the business before them,
broke up.

Knowing, as the Committee did, the opinion of distin-

ho thought it somewhat indecent that the Committee
