TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,—.I have just read with disgust the regulation of
the Lord Mayor, which excludes people walking in the
streets of the City after nine o'clock on Monday. Every
one seems to think it must be a hoax. In fact, that
was the first impression on my mind. It seems the
act, of either a tyrant or a madman, to shut up the
streets of London after nine o'clock. Let me beg of
you, Sir, to exert your beneficial influence to endea-
vour to prevent this evil.
Your constant reader,
Lombard-street, Oct 25 ' A JA

THE ABERDEEN RAILWAY.—This proposed line
is the most important that has yet been proposed
in any part of the north of Scotland, and pos-
sibly we might except the south of Scotland. It
will run from Aberdeen, containing a population of
75,000 inhabitants, active and speculative, by or near
Montrose, Forfar, Arbroath, Dundee, and Perth—all
large towns—and finally, we believe, communicate with
the Glasgow and Edinburgh Railway. The total amount
of expense, according to Mr. Cubist's calculation, will
not exceed 900,0001. If the work can be accomplished
for such a small sum, it would be of the greatest advan-
tage to those districts through which it is to pass, but
still more to the two large commercial towns at the ex-
tremities of the line, which at present have no communi-
cation with each other, except at an enormous expense.
Some of the leading men connected with the counties
through which it will pass have been appointed to the
Committee—among others, Lord Lovat and Lord Pan-
naure.

His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge,
attended by the Hon. Captain James Macdonald, his
aide-decamp and equerry, has returned to the palace
at Corfu, after a short tour in Italy. The Prince, we
believe, is not expected to return to this country, on a
visit to his illustrious relatives, earlier than February
next. It is probable his Royal Highness will receive a
high appointment on the staff in Great Britain, at the
next brevet.

FATHER MATHEW IN TnounLE.—The Cork Exa-
miner says :—" What will you think, Irishmen, when we
tell you that Father Mathew, the benefactor of your
country, the admiration of the world, has been publicly
arrested in Dublin for the balance of a debt due to a
maker of temperance medals, and that while in the very
act of administering the temperance pledge ? The bailiff,
like a second Judas, came up to Father Mathew, saying,
'Father Mathew, your blessing ?' and while the good
man called down a blessing upon the head of the wretch,
he took a writ from his pocket, and, thrusting it into the
hand of Father Mathew, told him he arrested him, and
then tusked for his forgiveness !"
