THE GALWAY ROUTE TO CANADA AND
TILE UNITED STATES.

The great success which has attended the through
booking system between England and Canada, in-
augurated by Sir Cusack Roney, has encouraged its
, extension in the direction of Galway, from which
port the British and Irish Steam Packet Company
have determined to dispatch their fast steamer Lady
Eglinton on the 3d of next month. The scale of fares
is so moderate that, in addition to emigrants, many
whom the new passport regulations prevent from
visiting the Continent will doubtless avail them-
selves of the opportunity afforded for an attrac-
tive and inexpensive foreign trip. First-class fare
from Galway to Montreal is only 13 guineas, and
return tickets are issued for 241. ; second-class, ten
guineas, and return tickets, 201. ; third-class, six
guineas. - As these rates include provisions, any-
thing more reasonable can scarcely be cm-
ceived. The Galway route gives the shortest
sea passage between Europe and America,
the distance to Quebec being 2,280 miles,
of which upwards of 700 are in the smooth
waters of the St. Lawrence. The distance from
Liverpool to New York is 3,100 miles. The vessel
has already made the voyage two or three times,
making the quickest passages which, up to that time
(1854), had been effectni between Europe and
Quebec. As she will snake two voyages to Mon-
treal this season, parfes taking return tickets can
either come back en the 26th of August or the sth
of October. The Canadian News suggests that, in
latter case, a most agreeable and economical trip
can be made all through Canada, and as far west as
Chicago, or even the Alississippi, by the through
booking system of the Grand Trunk Railway. Re-
turning, the tourist can. visit Niagara Falls, the
Canadian lakes, and the rapids of the St. Lawrence ;
or the more active can make a detour to Cincinnati,
Washington, Baltimore, New York, Boston, and
Portland, whence there is daily communication by I
railway with Quebec. At the above-quoted scale of
fares, a tourist need spend little more than half
what it would cost him to travel the same distance
in Europe.—Liverpool Albion.

THE MAILS, &c.—SOUTEIAMPTON, July 9.—The Royal
Mail Company's steamship Tyne, Capt. T. W. Sawyer,
took her &part me to-day with the Brazilia❑ and River
Plato Mails, 131 passeng±rP,ll,7s4l. in specie, jewellery
value 29 1001., and a fu'l cargo. A remarkable illustra-
tion of the faellitio4 rlforded at this port for dry docking
steamship of the first-class occurred an Monday list.
At 12.30 p.m., the tide being first quarter flood, the
Turkish e Paid Gebad, 2,500 tone, was floated and
taken out of the large dry dock ; the screw steamer
Thnares, 1,491 Onr, was then placed in the dock, acd
the water pumped out, to enable dimensions to be taken
for a new screw propeller; the dock refitted and the
Benares taken out, and the screw steamer Tasmania,
2,500 tons, admitted and paced upon the Idoekci, the
whole being accompished befre high water at 5.56 p.m.
SUICIDE IN THE REGENT'S CANAL.—Yesterday morn-
'frig information was received by the coroner of a deter-
mined suicide in the Regent's Caned, near the Ilarupsten,d-
road, by a female of ladylike appearance, who delibe-
rately precipitated herself into the water. The action
was observed by some women, who raised an alarm, but
by the time assistance arrived she had sank, and when
got out life was quite extinct. The body, which is clad
in deep mourning, was taken to St. Pancras Workhouse
to be owned, and for an inquest.
