Bab-Committee Ito. 1

This Committee met to•day shortly after twelve o'clock. Present,
Sir J. T. Buller (Chairman), Mr. Walker, Mr. Kemble, Mr. E. Yorke,
and Mr. Bramston.;

cuzzossronn AND BURY.

The consideration of the remaining allegations in the petition
against this Bill, which was commenced yesterday, was resumed.
Those allegations stated that there were several inaccuracies in the
gradients. rate of inclination, and other engineering points, on the
plans ; and several of these on the Suffolk and Essex portioni of the
line were sustained, while several others were abandoned. Amongst
the former were the 33d mile and 7th furlong, 3d mile 2d furlong, 7th
mile let furlong ist chain, 7th mile 7th furlong let chain, &c.
The remaining allegations of this class, down to 61, were admitted.
An allegation that there was an error in the datum line, at the
point 223 miles 6 chains, which should have been marked 220 feet,
was sustained.
It was next alleged, that on the plans and sections deposited with
the clerks of the peace for the counties of Suffolk and Essex, the
rates of inclination on certain turnpike-roade, &c., were not shown.
Several instances of the alleged omissions were adduced and sus-
tained, and several more were admitted.
The next class of allegations was, that the height of the embank-
ments at various points on the line wr.s not stated in the sitme_plans.
Several instances were sustained.

Sib-Committee No. 5.

This Committee met in room No. 11, .at about half-past twelve
o'clock, when there were present, Mr. Packe (Chairman), Mr. Ca-
vendish, angier. Walker.
BI2MINGIIAII2 AND OXFORD (13IXIVIING—
HAMI EXTENSION), AND nI a MENG ✓AIMS

AND oxrazza) JUNCTION RAILWAYS.
The discussions as to these Bills, which, it will be remembered, are
part of the same project, making together but one line, were re-
sumed. In reference to the former Bill the Committee reserved two
points—that as to the datum line, and that as to the neeessity of the
sections being on the same scale as the additional plan. In reference
to the latter point, it was observed by Mr. Carter that, as the small
plans had been admitted to be incorrect, there was no other plan for
the sections to agree with but the additional plans.
Mr. CARTER resumed the discussion on the question of sufficiency
of the notices, in which there was no distinction made between the
parts of the line for which separate Bills were to be obtained, al-
though it was stated that the proprietors intended " to go for a part
or parts" of the Bill. (Mr. Carter spoke at great length in answer
to the arguments used by Mr. Burke on Tuesday, and Mr. Burke re-
plied, although the Chairman considered it unnecessary.)
This question also was reserved, the Chairman wishing to consult
with Mr. Hope Johnstone (who was not now present), and some
other persons.

STANDING ORDERS' COMMITTEE.
HOUSE OF LORDS.

This Committee resumed its sittings this day, at twelve o'clock,
Present, the Earl of Shaftsbury, in the chair:_

TA* VALLEY.

The object of this line is to conhssct Barnstable and Bideford with
Exeter. The whole length of the line ixthirty seven miles, including
an extension of six miles from Farmington to Bideford. The—main
line is from Barnstable to Creditor], where it joins the Exeter arid.
Creliton Railway. The estimated cast is 515,000/. Engineer,
Joseph Locke ; Parliamentary agents, Dyson and Company.
The Company were opposed by the proposed North Devon Rail-
way Company.
After hearing the usual evidence, the Committee decided that the
datum line of the extension was not formed from such a point as
was contemplated by the standing orders, and they theretore re-
jected that portion of the line ; with respect to the main line, they
decided that the Company had complied with the standing orders.
