The third-class train which has been running on
the Ifondon and Brighton Railway since Friday last is
productive of much convenience to the public. In
accordance with the Act of last session, the carriages
are enclosed from the weather by wooden slides ; and
the fare is only one penny per mile. The seats run from
end to end, like those of an omnibus. One great advan-
tage arising from the new train is the arrival of the
morning papers an hour and a half earlier than hitherto.
The papers are now in hand by ten o'clock.—Brighton
Gazette.
A somewhat curious incident, in the way of sending
letters at sea in bottles, occurred lately. On the 4th inst.
a letter was received at the Admiralty, inclosing a paper
which had been washed ashore in a bottle at Berry
Head, Brixham, and picked up by a man belonging to
the Coast Guard on the 3d inst. This paper was as fol-
lows :—" Bound to England from China and the Cape of
Good Hope, her Majesty's ship Cornwallis, off Portland
Bill, bearing S.E. by S. seven miles, blowing fresh, Nov.
1." No advice had been received at the Admiralty of
the arrival of the Cornwallis when the foregoing paper
came to hand, and it was not for three hours afterwards
that the above ship was telegraphed on running
_into
Spithead.
