gines, inclined planes, and other modchlpf . 'ink
heavy goods, and committed to writing and
gave to the public the result of their united
labours. True it is that in 1825 it was thought even
by Mr. Wood a visionary hope that a speed of 12,
16, 18, or 20 miles an hour could be accomplished.
Equally true that in 1838 Mr. Wood acknowledged
with some surprise that on the Liverpool railway an
average rate of 15 miles was kept up with the greatest
ease, and on an extraordinary occasion nearly double
that rate, or 30 miles in one hour, had been attained.
It is by such admissions that we perceive the slow
degrees by which a knowledge of practical results is
advanced. Our present object, however, is not to
relate the history of railway progress, but to notice
the first and early efforts of the calm and patient in-
vestigator who paved the way for the illustrious
Stephensons, and prepared the public mind to listen
to and sanction innovations in travelling such as are
without parallel in the history of the world. In fact,
if we except the invention of printing, it may be said
that the discoveries of the application of steam power
and its subsequent application to travelling may
stand forth as two of the grandest achievements of
practical science. Let us then beg the attention of
our readers to the character of Mr. Wood's experi-
ments, and of the first published work in this country
on locomotive travelling. " It would be too much,"
he modestly observed, " for me to assume that I
have supplied all the information of which the sub-
ject is susceptible ; on the contrary, I wish it to be
understood that what is herein contained must be
considered only as an approximation." After giving
a general account of various modes of internal
travelling and of their successive transitions into
existing modes, he described the first introduction
of railroads (the name of " railway" had not then
obtained)—the gradual inTrevernent from wooden
to cast and malleable iron rail. lie confined his
experiments on rails to such as were then actually
in use, and described the form and construction of
such carriages as were then employed, and which
we may here observe were almost entirely waggons
for conveying coal. The various rates of inclination
of lines of railway were specially experimented on,
and numerous tables were given of the results both
as regards self-acting and other inclined planes, and
the work of the few and very imperfect locomotive
engines then known. Experiments were made on
the strength of cast and malleable iron with a view
to ascertain the proper strength of rails, and many
trials were made to ascertain the friction or resist-
ance of carriages when moving on rails. The long
and active and useful life of Nicholas Wood affords
materials upon which an extended memoir might be
based, and without further entering upon details wo
may venture to express a conviction that the memory
of this able mining engineer will hold an honoured
place in the annals of this country, and especially
so in the nortth of England, where he was so well
known and so justly respected.—Hexham Courant.

IMPERIAL MEXICAN.

The directors of this company in a special report
state their belief that the proposed transfer of the
contract for the works of the railway from Messrs.
Smith, Knight, and Co. to Mr. Crawley, the pre-
sent sub-contractor, would be of advantage to the
company, especially as securing an uninterrupted
continuance of the works under the able superinten-
dence of Mr. W. Lloyd, the contractor's engineer
and representative in Mexico, and by the staff now
employed on them, subject to the inspection of the
company's engineers. They were prepared to recom-
mend that proposition to the shareholders at the
general meeting on the 16th inst., and also to take
their opinion on another matter respecting the issue
of debentures. By the company's financial plan
the sum of £2,700,000 was to be provided by the
issue of debentures. The board had reason to be-
lieve that means existed for the issue of those
LILL, VW...Ant:int, antt iiegveumons mut
been entered into with that view ; but it appeared
that by foreign law the share capital must be called
up in full before thecompany would be in a position
to issue obligations. If the company was at once
placed in a position to issue its debentures,the works
might progress with the same despatch as heretofore,
and in order to meet these circumstances the directors
proposed that they should be authorised at once to
make a call of £7 per share, on the understanding
that arrangements would be made to meet the cony e-
nienee of shareholders desiring to pay the call by
instalments. The sum of £84,000 was received on
the 9th of October last in respect of the subvention
bonds for £1,600,000, of which £1,200,000 pertained
to the company, and also further payments had been
made on account of the 15 per cent. Customs' duties,
making the total amount of the Government con-
tributions to the share capital received in Mexico
up to the date of last advices £128,500, in exchange
for which the Government would receive an equiva-
lent number of shares in the company, untransfer-
able, in perpetuity. The total sum already paid by
the Imperial Government amounted to £212,500.

ROBERTS (THE CHAMPION) AND W. DLTF TON.
The announced intention of Mr. Roberts being about to
visit America at the end of the present week, and that his
last match previous to departure would be with Mr. VT.
Dufton at the St. James's Hall last evening, caused the
minor hall to be densely crowded, not alone to witness his
play, but also to give him a parting cheer. On Monday
evening he met Charles Hitchen at the Oval, at Kenning_
ton, and in giving 400 out of 1,000 Hitchen won, having
made up his score with the 400 given when Roberts had
only reached 826, although the latter in kis number accom-
plished the finest break ever witnessed, 175, out of which
there were 23 spot hazards.

Yesterday W. Dufton and Roberts met, the latter allow-
ing his opponent 350 out of 1,000, and notwithstanding the
defeat of the Champion on the previous evening he was still
the favourite. The game was played on the fine table
erected by Burroughes and Watts, made of oak, instead of
mahogany, as is mostly the case. They slung for the cue,
which Roberts won, and as usual each gave a miss. Roberts
scored 16 to Duftou's 362 ; and when ho had marked 100 to
403 (allowing for the 350 given) 10 to 2 was offered upon
the Champion. Roberts was 222 to 478, 303 to 531, and
401 to 558, with any odds upon him; but when, on the ad-
journment for refreshments, Roberts was 500 to Dufton's
649 ; the latter had made no great breaks up to this time,
those of most note by Roberts being a 42, 44, and a 95.
On resuming play at half-past ten, Roberts had the balls.
Gradually, from 500 to 649, the champion gained on his
opponent, and made break after break, until Roberts passed
Dufton, and amidst loud cheers the game was called, the
champion 790 to 789. It was Roberts 855 to 857, 901 to
870, and 922 to Dufton's 876. When Roberts had scored
971 to Dufton's 921, the latter gradually drew up, and
came to 971 to 974. Dufton next went away, and was 992
to 975 ; he was 981 to the champion's 976, and immense
excitement ensued ; 98 all in the last hundred was called.
An aggravating miss by Dufton gave Roberts the victory,
the latter being 1,001 to 998.

Harry Evans called and marked the game in a mos
creditable manner.

The health of Mr. Roberts was proposed, and good suc-
cess expressed for his voyage to America, and also to his
good return to his native land.

The table played upon was a most difficult one, and
capable of testing the powers of the first of players, even
the champion himself. It is of pollard oak, and does great
credit to Messrs. Burroughea and Watts, of Soho-square.

TENDRING HUNDRED.

Traffic was commenced on Monday on this com-
pany's extension to Weeley. Four trains run each
way daily.

MANCHESTER AND MILFORD HAVEN.

The first section of this railway—viz., from Pen-
cader, Carmarthenshire to Lampeter, on the borders
of Cardiganshire, was opened for traffic last week.
Pencader is a station on the Carmarthen and Car-
digan Railway, which line at present is open for
traffic from the former place to Llandyssil, about
six miles beyond Pencader. The country is en-
tirely agricultural, but the line will form an impor-
tant link of communication between the North of
England and South Wales.

It appears that the total number of persons con-

section was about 1,094,000, and that they were

A number of other witnesses were examined, all

The jury retired to consider their verdict at a
quarter to four, and at a quarter to six returned
into court with a verdict of Not Guilty.
There was a slight attempt at applause when the
decision of the jury was known, but it was in-
stantly suppressed.

Specimens of Dore's Genius.

An elegantly got up and admirably well-selected
volume has just now been published by Mr. Beeton,
of the Strand, giving as its title intimates " A Dozen
Specimens of Gustave Dore"—specimens of his
astonishing genius as an illustrator alike of the most
sublime and of the most trivial productions of the
human intellect in the world's literature. In fact--
turning abruptly from the first to the last of the
three divisions into which the twelve drawings here
given from among the countless works of Dore's
affluent and rapid genius as a draughtsman
—turning from the four sketches illustrative
of Dante's Inferno to those four others illus-
trative of Captain Castognette—it is for all the
world as though really and truly for once Ire were
taking at the behest of M. Gustave Dore, the one
proverbial step from the Sublime to the Ridiculous.
While, at the same time, intermediately, as we take
it, we aro stepping over those four other charming
embellishments from the same gifted pencil, embel-
lishments that have been culled by the way from
the pages of Dore's illustrated edition of the " The
Fairy Tales of Perrault." Anything more awful
than the weltering pool of Hell—anything more
ghostly, ghastly, grizzly than the lonely forestviai
leading to it— anything prettier of its kind than the
limning of little Hop o' my Thumb dropping the
trail that leads to his extrication, and to the extrica-
tion also of his brothers from the perils into
which they are being led by their unnatural
would-be destroyer—anything, in fine, more utterly
preposterous than each of those absurd vagaries
into which we follow with laughing eyes that
ridiculous cousin-german of Baron Munchausont
Captain Castagnette of Manuel, it would be difficult
to imagine, or even if we could imagine just next to
impossible to draw. Altogether the volume is one
for the publication of which the fast multiplying
admirers of Gustave Dore have reason to feel under
an obligation to Mr. Beeton for placing withlu,
their reach for the advancement of their occasional
tables, whether in drawing-room, boudoir, or
library.

MILITARY SAVINGS BANKS.

Mr. DISRAELI asked for some information relative to
the case of a young soldier who had
.deposited a certain
sum in one of the military savings banks iu India. Afta
informing his parents of the sum he had so placed he died,
and in place of recovering the amount the soldier informed
his parents he had saved, a few shillings only were sent
to poor people who were pesants in Buckinghamshire.
He should like to have some information on the matter.
Mr. FERRAND said a case very similar had occcurred
at his residence in the country. The mother of a
private soldier had been informed by him that he had placed
.£2.0 in the military savings bank, but after so doing he
died, and instead of the sum being paid over to her she
received but a few shillings. It being a case exactly in
point to that brought forward by the right hon. gentleman,
he hoped it would be inquired into at the same time.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, his
noble friend the Secretary for War not being in his place,
he would no doubt give some information on the matter
to-morrow evening.

es, THE ESCAPE OF STEPHENS.

Mr. WHITESIDE then called the attention of the house
to the circumstances connected with the escape of Stephens,
the head centre of Fenianism, from Richmond Peniten-
tiary. The hon. and learned gentleman detailed the cir-
cumstances that had led to the apprehension of Stephens,
and those who conduced to his escape. He said that in
order to render the escape of the great head of the con-
spiracy possible, no military guard could have been placed
over the prison. The extra guard, if it had been
so placed must have withdrawn, or else the officials of the
prison must have been greater traitors than the rebel. Ho
contended that the whole circumstances was a reflection
upon the authorities in Ireland, both military
and civil, because he believed, notwithstanding
many versions that had been given with present
the escape the true ono was that the
flight of Stephens from Richmond prison was effected by
false keys provided for him by the officials of the goal,
who were the paid servants of the Crown. The
The whole transaction was a disgrace to the
executive in Ireland. He should like to know whether
any investigation had been made into the
escape of Stephens, and whether there would be
any objection to lay a copy of the proceedings on the table
of the house.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRELAND roso and

STRIKE THE IRON 'WHILE IT IS HOT.

"All right ! shake hands on it ! I'll giva you five hun-
dred for the copyright—right away, mind !—sketch, pic-
ture, and right of engraving. We'll get it to some winter-
gallery, and you'll have another ready for the Academy.
Nothing like that, my boy ! I know the world, and you
don't. What the public likes, you give them as much of
as you can. Don't you believe in overstocking the market
with Lwllows ; that's all stuff ! Lot 'em have the Lud-
lows while they want 'em. In a year or two they'll fight
like devils to get a Jones or a Robinson, and wonder how
the deuce any body could have spent their money on such
a dauber as Ludlow. Don't you be offended, my boy ;
I'm only speakin' the truth. I buy you because the public
wants you ; and I turn an honest penny in sellin' you
again ; not that I'm any peculiar nuts on you myself,
ehher ono way or t'other. Come, lot's wet this bargain,
Ludlow, my boy; some of that dry sherry you pulled out
when I saw you last at Brompton, eh ?"

Besides the artist group, we take a passing interest
in the family affairs of the Earl of Beauport. In a
startling chapter entitled " Blotted Out," the Earl
blots the disgraced name of his second son out of
