RAILWAY BILLS.

Yesterday in Room 16, presided over by Mr.
Frere, the standing orders were declared to have
been complied with in the case of the unopposed
bills of the Great Western, the Waterford and
Kilkenny, and the Holywell Railway Bills. It was
announced that the opposition had been withdrawn
with respect to the Liverpool Tramways Bill, which
consequently passed standing orders. In Mr. Pal-
grave's court, held in Committee-room No. 17, the
examiner declared that the standing orders had
been complied with in the cases of the unopposed
Bills of the Tower Subway, the Lancashire and
Yorkshire Railways, and the Shropshire Union Rail-
ways and Canal. The consideratian of the Isle of
Wight Central Railway, and'the Sirhowy Railway,
was again adjourned. The Isle of Wight (Newport
Junction) Bill was postponed.

THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, JANUARY 31, 1868.

the 2d Royals are to be held in readiness to embark

Church electing and consecrating her own bishop
without the intervention of a Minister of State. It
seems to us that the Natal case is exactly parallel
with that of Canada, and that the proposed conse-
cration can hardly involve any of those appalling
consequences anticipated by the Bishop of London.
We apprehend that the Crown is quite capable of
taking care of its own rights in this matter, and
judging from the policy of the Colonial-office under
the two last Administrations, it will be chiefly
anxious to leave the Colonial Church perfectly
free, and to avoid such embarrassments as those
with which, thanks to the blundering of Attorney-
General Bethell, it was saddled in the case of the
N atal bishopric. At the same time we entirely
agree with the Bishop of London that Bishop Gray
is bound to exercise all possible care that every
step he takes is consistent with legality. We
have no doubt that he has done this, and that he
will proceed to consecrate a new bishop for the
Church in Natal with the assurance that he has
ample warrant for doing so."—Anglo-ilmerican

the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
nals by the closest observer.; they will never change
colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will
support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-

and other language of a corre-
sponding character. The prisoner Daley was like-
wise charged with striking Corporal Clarke of the
Royal Engineers, who was in charge of the escort
that conveyed the prisoners to the guard-room.
The Court found both the prisoners guilty, and

servitude ; the prisoner Molloy was also sentenced
to be dismissed from the army
with ignominy, to
be branded with the letters " 8.C.," and to be im-
prisoned and kept at hard labour for two years.
After the order of the Court had been read the
prisoners had portions of their uniform stripped
from them,
when they were marched to the
bar-
rack-gates,
the band playing the
"Rogue's March,"
and handed over to an escort for conveyance to
prison. _ . .

Orders were yesterday received at Chatham gar-
rison directing the following detachments to be held '

which left at times a tickling in my Throat, with other
unpleasant feelings. I was advised to try the BALSAM OF
ANISEED ; I did so, and have found very great relief ; it is
most comforting in allaying irritation, andgiving strength
to the voice. _ _

You are at liberty to make use of this as you think pro-
per, and I earnestly hope that others may benefit by it as
I have done.—With many thanks from your obedient ser-
♦ant, SAMUEL DEAR,

" The
official
appointment Innocent, Arch-
bishop of Kam t h k
a, to the dignity of Primate
of Moscow, in room of the late venerable Philarete,
is announced. The new Archbishop, who was but
a 'simple priest 35 years ago, had devoted himself
to the holy mission of converting to Christianity
the idolatrous population of that Asiatic country,
and by his untiring zeal and eloquent language
obtained results so important that in a few years
there arose a necessity to raise Kamstchatka into
a new diocese. The worthy missionary, who was
then named Jean Feniaminof, was married and the
father of several children. He repaired to Moscow
to lay before Mgr. Philarete the requirements of the
new see. During his stay in that city be received
the news of the unexpected death of his wife, whom
he had left in goof health. Having thus become a
widower, he was in the condition required for the
episcopacy, and Mgr. Philarete did not hesitate to
confer on him the dignity to which, in no circum-
stances, would his modesty have allowed him to pre-
tend. Mine. Potemkin, who is always ready when there
is a work of charity to perform, undertook to bring
up the missionary's daughters, educate them and
marry them honourably. The simple priest then
became a bishop, under the title of Innocent, and
returned to Kawstchatka, where he exercised his
apostolic zeal for thirty years. For some years past
he had become Arbishop, and has now been called to
the highest functions in the ecclesiastical hierarchy.

The report of the directors of this company states
that the gross receipts from traffic for the half-year
ending the 31st of December last amounted to
£118,738, as compared with £10,295 for the cor-
responding half of 1866, showing an increase of
£11,443, which had been earned without a corre-
sponding increase in the expenses. After charging
the revenue of the past half-year with all expenses
there remained a net available balance (exclusive of

CALEDONIAN.

The accountants to the committee of inquiry, in
reply to the observations of the auditors of this
company, state that they entirely dissent from the
statement of the auditors " that almost the whole
of the items comprised in the total of the deduc-
tions, £219,114, arise upon the question of the pro-
per apportionment to revenue and capital of the
expenditure incurred in additions to the line, works
and rolling stock, and the cost of extra substantial
improvements." The accountants to the committee
state that the only items in their deductions of this
nature for the two years under review were the fol-
lowing :—£7,026 for extra cost of steel over iron
rails, &c. ; £21,632 for difference in cost of renewal
of wood and other bridges with stone or iron ;
£3,350 difference in the cost of steel and iron
tires, &c., used in renewing rolling stock ;
£6,584 interest on unproductive capital, and
£4,508 for fish-plating old lines ; together,
£43,100. The remaining items are all ordinary re-
venue charges, and amount to £176,014. As regards
the first four of the above items, amounting to
£38,592, the accountants state that the principle of
the Caledonian itself up to July, 1865, was to
charge the whole to revenue, and it was not until
1866 that this principle was departed from, and
capital was then and subsequently charged not only
with the extra cost of renewals over former outlay,
but, in case of renewal of bridges, with the whole
cost. The remaining items of their deductions,
amounting to £176,014, are, as already stated by
the accountants, not within the debateable ground
of what may or may not be properly charged to
capital. They add that they have carefully read
and considered the " observations" of both the di-
rectors and auditors of the Caledonian Company,
but are not thereby induced to alter the conclusions
arrived at in their report to the committee of in-
quiry. They also mention that the entire cost of
renewing rolling stock, including steel tires and
axles, and increase of power and capacity, has been
charged to revenue by the Midland Railway Com-
pany, who, since June, 1861, also charged to re-
venue the extra weight of material used in relaying
and fishplating, and that no charge has been made
by them to capital for additional cost of steel over
iron rails.

PERILS OF A LOUR.

On Monday night an event occurred in Water-
ford which has thrown the Fenian excitement com-
pletely into the shade. A fine-looking fellow,
named Edwards, a sergeant of the H Battery of the
Horse Artillery, stationed at Waterford, became en-
amoured of a pretty housemaid. Matters went on
smoothly till Monday night, when a vindictive and
rather tyrannical coachman thought fit to interfere.
The knight of the whip fancied that he had a right
to monopolise the attentions of the girl, and, per-
ceiving that Phillis favoured the son of Mars and
contemned his own advances, he sought to " thrash"
her into matrimony, and with this view seriously
assaulted her. The girl had to leave the house, the
master and mistress being absent, and left word
that if Edwards called he was to remain until her
return. The coachman heard. this, and when a
knock came to the door, he opened it, and bade
the soldier " begone." The gallant son of Mars
did not resent the manner of his rival, but holding
out his hand, said, " Let us be friends." The answer
was a string of • vituperative abuse, which was
brought to a termination by his receiving a blow
on the mouth. Coachee slunk away to the
lower regions of the kitchen, and the artillery-
man departed, intimating his intention of re-
turning when he thought Catherine would be at
home. He did so ; but in the meantime the
girl had entered the house, and was furiously
set upon by the coachman. The ruffian cried
out, " I am in the house with you ; I have loved
yon madly, and in spite of -- itself that fellow
will not possess you. I would rather :see you dead
than his." He then seizing a knife, swore he would cut
her throat. The girl took refuge in the pantry, and
her cries maddened the soldier outside. He climbed
over the wall at the rear of the premises, and thun-
dered loudly at the back door. The coachman,
who heard the noise, seized a pitchfork and
placing himself en charge, awaited the entrance of
his enemy. Finding that the soldier could not
force the back dJor, he went out by the hall door,
with the intention of taking him in the rear.
Scarcely had he gone out, however, when the
woman admitted, the artilleryman, and secured
both doors. The lovers now remained together till
half-past eleven o'clock, when the gallant soldier
departed ; but his troubles were not yet over. As
he was passing John's Bridge, the coachman and
three other fellows rushed upon him, with loud
cries of " Throw him over the bridge." Edwards
defended himself gallantly with his belt, but
when that was broken he was completely at
the mercy of his foes. They grappled with him,
and were in the act of tilting him over the battle-
ments of the bridge when the tramp of the police
patrol was heard in the distance, and the ruffians,
releasing their hold on their victim, decamped.
'e artilleryman was conveyed in a state of nex-
haustion to batracks, and, according to the strict
rules of discipline, sentenced to 15 days' confine-
ment.—Saunders's Newsletter.
