RAILWAY LEGISLATION.

_
The following protest against the new sessional orders 110
been entered by Lord Radnor upon the journals of the House
of Lords :

" DISSENTIENT.
"1. Because I think it is unseemly, impolitic, and of 14
example, that the House should, to meet the supposed ewer;
gency of a particular case, alter by ex post facto resolution
its own established regulations, and thus enable certain Pt;
ties to violate engagements which others had entered into
with them ou the faith of those regulations.
"2. Because such a proceeding impairs (if it does not
totally &Amy) the confidence which should be reposed on
the regulations of this House.
"3. Because the real purport and ultimate effect of the,..
se
resolutions are not to bring about any public or national o°,
ject, connected with the constmuction of the proposed ra!'ll
ways, but gratuitously to relieve parties (whether corapanis:
or private individuals) from engagements which they bal
wantonly and heedlessly contracted.
,c 4. Because if it were expedient to put an end to thes°
engagements, the responsibility and onus of taking the fleas,
sary steps for that purpose should be left to the parties theill
selves, and not be undertaken by the House.
5. Because the House thus goes out of its way to inter
pose in, and intermeddle with, the affairs of private parties.
" 6. Because, in truth, the parties intended thus to be
.re-
lieved have in many cases incurred their responsibilitl
without any view to the public good, but merely in the ePir,„.l
of reckless gambling, for theiripwn private gain, and llev:;
therefore, no claim to so unusual an interposition oa the'
behalf.

" 7. Because the House thus holds out an expectatio3o
that on future similar occasions it may be induced to afibr
similar relief; and thus, if it does not directly enconrag
such a spirit, it does not discourage it, or throw stic,l!,fs
stigma on it as according to every principle of sound ,
and good morals it is bound to do.
"8. Because this unprecedented and mischievous proceed;
ing appears to me the more uncalled for, even in the vievioil
its supporters, as there is now before the House a Bill wiuto
will enable the persons to whom these resolutions apply „p
effect the same object directly for themselves, and there iS
reason to anticipate that it will not pass into a law."

The court was densely crowded. The accused, whell
placed at the bar, displayed unusual composure.
Evidence having been adduced before the petty jury On
the day previous, the prisoner was found guilty, and hay'

The BAILrFF then

deep feeling,address the wretched woman at t'-'3

The prisoner, apparently unmoved, was then conducte

to the gaol, amid the hootings and execrations of the crow,o

A DESERTED VESSEL Y UP AT 0.,... „tiff
Monday, two fishermen from Eastbourne, while out in their boat of
the channel, discovered about twenty miles from land a vessioti
between 300 and 400 tons burden, and from her drifting about it
00
evident there was no one on board to manage her. They wentll-
board, and found her entirely deserted. She wasladen and !,P„iart.-
rently homeward-bound. On the return of the fisherman to B to
bourne, they gave information to Lloyd's agent, who cara',s
Brighton, and with Mr. Black, our indefatigable and intelliCer
packet agent, proceeded to Shoreham, when the Magnet step of
was dispatched at half-past one yesterday morning on a voYaeitto
discovery. She steered eastward, and in the evening was 11.0.
