The establishment of a first-claLs packet .station for Europe
and America, on the west coast of•lrelandi is imperatively de-
manded in the interests of the Government and of thepeople,
as the means of securing the shortest. sea-passage between
the two hemispheres, and effecting a ()Teat saving in the coot
of transport. -
The social and commercial intercourse'between this country
and America presents every year a wonderful increase, and
the intense interest lately manifested by all classes of the com-
munity in the endeavour to bind together the two continents
by the electric cable affords a fresh proof of the urgent desire
which exists for greater rapidity.in the postal service.
The port of Galway possesses unrivalled natural advan-
tages, as the western packet station for the rapid transmission
of mails and passengers from Great Bidtain to. the United
States and British North America, being 360 miles nearer to
America, than Liverpool. It is accessible for ve:isels of the
lamest class at all times of the tide. _

All those times that he passed up and down it was
good. The men -Went down the shaft with Davy
lamps. They mostly go down in the dark. If they
went down they went down with Davys. The lamps
were lighted at the bottom of the shaft. He started
the boys when he went down. Kellett came down
the shaft at a quarter-past eight o'clock. He (wit-
ness) was in the " return" at the back of the furnace.
Geo. Paddisonand Wm.Paddison were working be-
side him (witness). Kellett sent for him. He said he
smelt burnt wood. Witness could not tell where the
fire was until he got to bank. He got into a cage
to be drawn up. Kellet got into the top of it, and
the onsetter "rapped" them away. Witness when
he got into the cage smelt fire. The water was run-
ning over the brattice as usual. They then drew
away. When they had been drawn from 10 to 11
fathoms up the shaft something fell from above
into the upper part of the shaft and knocked
Kellett off the cage. Witness did not see anything.
He did not see any flash of light. He saw no fire
as he was drawn up the shaft. He got above the
surface without any stoppage, when he was stop-
ped. Smoke was comine, up, and the smoke pre-
vented the breaksman seeing him. The witness was
detailing the efforts made to extinguish the fire
when our report left. Mr. N. Wood, the eminent
engineer, had also arrived in the room. The in-
quiry is likely to be a lengthened one.

Galway has direct railway andsteam communication with
London, via Holyhead and- Dublin the passage of the Chan-
nel occupying only four hours. This Company has exclusive
privileges for the conveyance of passengers and freight over
the railway from Dublin to. Galway, at exceptionally low
rates, for a long period ; and the Government have remitted
all harbour dues and charges for the port of Galway uponves-
sels owned by:this Company.
Galway has a telegraphic communication with all parts of
Europe has three iron foundries, where steam machinery
can be repaired ; its warehouses are capable of being made the
American grain depot of the United Kingdom ;—and its hotel
accommodation is excellent. •
By adopting the Galway route, the Governments of Eng-
land and America, and the commercial and manufacturing
communities of the two countries, will effect a saving- of from
twenty-four to forty-eight hours in each- passage. The dan-
gers of the Channel navigation will be avoided, in which more
than a thousand lives, and over five hundred ships, are lost
annually. The saving in insurance premiums on ships and
cargoes, in the wear and tear of machinery, and in the dimi-
nished consumption of coal, tallow, engine-stores, and provi-
sions, will enable this Company to make such a reduction of
fares and freights as will prove a great public benefit, and
command an increasing and profitable traffic.
The importance of this route -is highly appreciated. by the
Governments on both sides of the—Atlantic ; and the peculiar
advantages which it presentswill undoubtedly secure the trans-
mission of the mails, not only to the United States and British
North AMerica, but through the Hudson's Bay territory to
Vancouver's Island and the Gold Regions on the Pacific. •
These considerations induced Mr. John Orrell Lever, of
Manchester, to place four powerful steamships upon this line,
and to despatch them all at bi-weekly intervals to the ports of
St. John's, Halifax, Beston, and New York. These•vessels
have all carried out full cargoes of passengers and goods, and
the rapidity of the sea passage from shore to shore has been
such as to be accomplished in less than six days, thus en-
abling a message to pass from London tolYashington in little
more than six days. •
A practical demonstration having thus been given of the
superior advantages and economy of this route, and the public
having called for a much larger development of the under-
taking, the Atlantic Royal Mail Steam Navigation Company,
Limited, has been formed upon a basis which entitles it to the
support of the public as a national and commercial enterprise
of the first rank.

The Company will commence. business without any of the
risks attendant upon experimental operations. Arrange-
ments have been made for the purchase, on equitable terms, of
all the vessels now running, together with the valuable con-
nexion already secured ; and the experience hitherto gained
will enable the Company to select such. other steam ships as
are best adapted to the service with the greatest economy.
Important arran,Tements have also been made for the con-
venience of travellers with the Grand. Trunk Railway of
Canada, and with nearly all the railway companies in Europe
and the United States, comprising altogether 2,167 railway
and steam packet stations, for booking passengers through
the whole extent of the lines. _ _

The rapidity with which communications have been made
by the steamships of this company between Europe and
America has led the Directors to take into consideration the
propriety of making such arrangements with the Electric
telegraph Companies of the two Continents as will secure to
the commercial- communities the advantage of at least' five
days' later information than by any other ex'sting route.
The Hon. Robert Grimston, Deputy Chairman of the Elec-
tric Telegraph Company, will give this Company his assist-
ance in directing these arrangements.
A connexion has also been formed between this line and
the American Express Company at New York, by-which the
greatest facilities will be secured for booking passengers, and
sending specie, gold dust, and valuable packages between
Europe and all parts of America and Canada, as well as
California and British Columbia.

In consequence of the present low price of shipping, the
proposed capital of £500,000 will be sufficient to supply steam-
ships for a .regular weekly packet service ; but as the assur-
ances of support which the Directors have already received,
and the prospects of a remunerative business, justify the
expectation of a demand for more extended operations, power
has been taken for increasing the capital when the success of
the working has been more fully established.
The promoters have spared neither time nor labour in com-
pleting all the preliminary arrangements, in order that the
money subscribed by the shareholders may at once yield a
profitable return. More than- one4hird of the capital has
already- been subscribed by parties practically acquainted
with the requisites for carrying out such an undertaking
economically and successfully. -This fact will afford the best
guarantee of the satisfactory nature of the arrangements
which have been made for the management of the Company.
Applications 'Ray be made for the remaining shares in the
subjoined form, addressed to the Directors at the Offices of
the Company, or to either of the Brokers.
Each
.application must be accompanied by a deposit of £2
per share.
The Directors reserve to themselves the right of allotting
shares to such persons, and in such numbers, as they may
think proper. The deposit will be returned if the application
be not acceded to. .

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the
and excesses, which have prodoced more misery in
degradation in Manhood, and premature decay at all stages
ot lift., than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to
modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended
to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condi-
tion, and who are conscious of having hazarded the 'health,
happiness, and privileges to which every human being is en-
titled.
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that
there are principles of personal management which cannot be
violated without incurring grievous penalties, . and when
wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-
indulgenc•a, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the
sting Oi their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil
and its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, that
there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional

CHARGE OF CONSPIRACY TO ABDUCT,
Mr. John Carden, of Barnane, is again in trouble.
At Kingstown Police-office this day a young and
respectably-dressed woman, named Maria Douglas,
otherwise Keating, was placed in dock to answer
an offence set forth in the following terms in the
charge sheet :

"-Maria Douglas, for conspiring with John Car-
den and others, and endeavouring to accomplish the
abduction of a lady at present residing at Lord
Gough's place, St. Helen's, she having called at the
gate lodge and made particular inquiry relating to
the lady in questien, and then and there held out a
bribe to -Lord Gough's gatekeeper, should she give
assistance in accomplishing the object sought."
The lady in question is Miss Ellen Arbuthnot,
whose attempted abduction by Mr. John Carden
six years ago must be still in the recollection of
the public. Mr. John E. Walshe, Q.C., appearecT
for the prosecution ; Mr. Rolleston, Q.C., for Mr.
Carden; and Mr: Curran for., the prisoner. Mr.
Walsh called upon the magistrate to take-recognis-
tinces both from the woman and -I..V.r.Carden to
keep the peace towards Miss T,rbAtlitiOt. After a
lengthened discussion between coiiiisel, the magi-
strate read. the sworn information of Miss
Arbuth-
not, in which, after referring to the events of her
previous persecutiOn by Mr. Carden in 1852, and
his subsequent conviction and imprisonment, she
deposed as follows :
" After the expiration of this imprisonment, the
same John -Carden recommenced the same-system of
annoyance towards -mei incessantly.following my
movements ,wherever.l went, insomuch that I could
not visit even the private residences of my friends
without his locating himself immediately in the
neighbourhood, and-Obtruding himself on me whe:i
walking or riding. He did not, however, on these
occasions venture to address me, or write to me or
my friends, until later, when I was on a visit at
Eldersley, j.n., the county .of Surrey ;. but while I
was there, while I was riding one day in company
with my brother, William Arbuthnot, Mr. Carden
suddenly rode tip ,fmn_behiud and commenced adi
dressing me in-an excited manner "by name. My
brOther thereupon interfered, and compelled Mr.
Carden to retire. On the same evening Mr. Car-
den- wrote a most insulting letter on the subject of
this meeting to myinother.William. Just ,at the
same time Mr. Pardon addressed a letter to Mrs,
Arbuthnot, my sister-in-law, residing, at Cowarth,
near.Staines, ,with the object of procuring an inter-
view to pre-Ss his suit to me. The letter was, how-
ever, returned to
,Mr. Carden, who, however, for-
warded it again; with an 'additional one, to which
I also refer,-marked-with-the letter C. I further say
that it was my intention to reside shortly with my
brothevinzlawthe ufortsaiddlon. George Gaugh, at
Loughcooter, in the county of Galway, which is in
a lonely and retired part of the country-; and I
have been credibly informed that the 'said John
Carden within a short time. said that I vas return-
ing to the neighbourhood- of Clommil, where,l
should be surrounded by friends, an ,' he had no
elfanee,lut that when I should be at Loughcooter
he would-have good opportunities of /carrying out
his views." I have recently been infemined a woman
employed by.hinj lids tken:4riesteij, and from his
previous conduct towards me, and:his objects with
regard :to meetafter: he- was)well (aware, notwith-
standing his pretences to the contrary, that I will
never consent to scre-or-hitvc--any-intercourse what-
ever with him, Itswear that I am apprehensive hat
he *will,fshould occitsion offer, again commit serious
violence to- nie,:and that I am in danger *froth him,
and that-I- positively swear that I entertain the
greatest aversion to the Said Jelin Carden; and I
have never given any encouragement to justify hiS
ddressit to me, either directly or
.iudirectly:
Ater. a lengthened argument, Mr. Porter, t 4
magistrate
_said there 'could be 'question with
regard to-the merits di the case; but he 'wished to
take time to consider -the question as to the 'extent
of his jurisdiction. He proposed, therefore, to post 7
pone the further hearing of the 'case tmtil-WedneS-
day. Mr. Carden applied that the case should be
adjourned until Monday, on the, ground that a
brother of Miss. Arbuthnot and his wife, who were
now staying at I3arnane, were material witnesses
on his behalf, and they could not attend before that
date. Mr. Walshe said that the brother referred
to was in exile from his family and a pensioner ,of
Mr. Carden's. The case was then adjourned until .
Monday next. Subsequently, upon entering upon
her own recognisances to appear when called on,
Maria Keating was discharged from custody.
