This Railway will establish a most desirable line of cominunleatiou
between London, Dover, Salisbury, Yeovil, and the West of England,
traversing in its course many wealthy, populous, and important
districts.
It will commence at the Reigate-station on the Dover and Brighton
Railways, and pass by Dorking and Guildford to Basingstoke. From
thence it will proceed by Whitchurch, Andover, and Salisbury, to
Yeovil. By whichmeans the connexion between the East and West
Coasts of England will be complete.
A further and most important feature of the undertaking is, that
by using the line of the South Western Railway from London to
Basingstoke, it will bring Salisbury and Yeovil into an entirely direct
line of communication with the Metropolis. The distance from
London to Salisbury will be about 80 miles, ant to Yeovil 120 miles.
It will also unite four of the principal Railways in the kingdom ;
viz., the Dover, Brighton, South-Western, and Great Western, and at
the same time will most materially aid communication between the
ports of Dover, Shoreham, Portsmouth, Southampton and Bristol, a
most desirable object in a national point of view.
A reference to the accompanying map will manifestly prove that
few Railways in the kingdom will form a medium of communication
with a greater aggregate of wealthy, populous, and important places.
By it, Salisbury, Sterborne, Yeovil, Bath and Bristol, Bradford,
Trowbridge, Ironic, Guildford, Farnham, Basingstoke, Whitchureh,
Andover, Weyhill with-its extensive fair, Shaftesbury, Milborne Port,
Stalbrldgc, and Ilehester, with the numerous smaller towns and villages
in their vicinity, will be brought into immediate connexion with each
other, rendering the undertaking eminently calculated to promote the
convenience of the public, and certain to yield a large return to its
proprietors.
The country to be traversed will, as has been ascertained hom ac-
tual surveys, admit of the construction of the Railway at a moderate
cost. The portions yet to be fcrtned will comprise the country be-
tween Reigate and Salisbury, about 76 miles (less about 11 miles
proposed to be used of the South Western Railway), and that between
Salisbury and Yeovil about 40 miles, 'making the entire length of the
line.yet to be constructed no more than 105 miles.
Application to be made. for Shares to the Provisional Committee;

THE CASE OF THE BRAVE MAN
CARNIE, WHO SAVED A FELLOW-CREATURE'S
LIFE AT LEITH, WHO MUST HAVE PERISHED
BUT FOR HIS INTREPIDITY.

We copy a few introductory remarks which we find in the
Army and Navy Register of last Saturday, omitting the let-
ters to which they refer, because we have already had the gra-
tification of being, rst in the field to give them publicity. The
public, we lament to find, have responded in a very inade-
quate manner to this strong claim-51. only has been sub-
scribed, and Mr. Robins (whose perseverance is not yet sa-
tisfied) has, it should seem, been to the Directors of the
Royal Humane Society, and got from them a promise of the
Humane Silver Medal, which will be more highly prized by
Carnie than the poor little subscription about to be forwarded
to him :

" The following letters appeared in the Morning Post, of
Monday last, and we have great satisfaction in giving them
a place in our columns, as the first reflects great credit on
Mr. George Robins, the celebrated auctioneer, for the warm
interest he has taken in the cause of James Carnie ; and the
second contains the character of an excellent specimen of
that singular and clannish race known by the designation of
Newhaven fishermen, from the pen of their kind pastor, the
Rev. James Fairbairn, minister of Newhaven. The reason
advanced by the worthy clergyman to overcome the scruples
ofJames Carnie, and induce him to agree to accept a reward
for performing a good action, affords evidence that he is ad-
mirably adapted for the duty he has undertaken for the re-
ligious and moral welfare of the original class of society
amongst whom he is located. We trust the object so praise-
worthily entered upon from the best of motives by Mr.
George Robins, and so ably seconded by the Rev. James
Fairbairn, will be responded to on this side the Tweed, and
that a handsome sum will be raised to present a purse to
James Carnie, and some tangible memorial to descend as an
heirloom in his respected family. Those only who are ac-
quainted with the character of Newhaven fishermen, can
form any idea of the value of a gift to any of the members of
their body for a good action, and the veneration in which a
piece of silver plate, presented to one of them, would be held
by the whole patriarchal and interesting race—so well known
to all who have visited Edinburgh, the clean and picturesque
dress of their wives and daughters rendering them objects of
interest to strangers in the metropolis of Scotland."
P.S. We omit the letters, because we have already inserted
them ten days since.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
TATTERSALL'S.—YESTERDAY.
CHESTER CUP.
There was a slight improvement in the betting on this
race, but no striking change in the quotations. We need
only observe, therefore, that Cataract and Semiseria were in
fair demand, and so nearly level that two sovereigns were
taken for the choice of the horse in an even bet of four hun-
dred pounds. The Era was also in favour, and Obscurity,
albeit 22 to 1 was offered agst in one quarter, ave-
raged 18 to 1 until near the close, and was finally
backed for a small sum at 16 to I. Zanoni and Winesour
were not in request, and of the newly-made favourite Yheo-
mun-ac-Knuck, nothing was said to fix a price. The mar-
ket prices at the break-up were as follows
8 to 1 agst the three yrs old
11 to 1 agst Mr. W. Scott's Cataract
12 to 1 agst Mr. Jaques's Semiseria
15 to 1 agst Mr. A. Johnson's The Era
16 to 1 agst Obscurity
25 to 1 agst Mr. Parry's Zanoni—taken
25 to 1 agst Mr. Bell's Winesour
25 to 1 agst Mr. Gully's St. Lawrence
33 to 1 agst Mr. Meiklam's Trueboy
33 to 1 agst Lord G. Bentinck's Pug
40 to 1 agst Mr. Irwin's Ould Ireland—taken
40 to 1 agst Mr. Scott's Agriculture
50 to 1 agst Mr. Mostyn's Milton—taken
1000 to 15 agst Mr. Irwin's Foig-a-ballagh
2000 to 30 agst Mr. Osbaldeston's Sorella—taken
16 to 1 agat Patriot, Polish, and Pride of Kildare—
taken to 65/.
3 to 1 on the field, against the first four favourites—taken
TWO THOUSAND GUINEAS STAKES.
5 to 2 agst Lord Stradbroke's Idas—taken
9 to 2 agst Colonel Anson's Kedger—taken
9 to 2 agst Colonel Peel's Cobweb.colt—taken
DERBY.
The odds quoted against Forth's lot, Alarm, Idas, Cobweb
colt, Kedger, Weatherbit, Old England, Mentor, Annandale,
and the extreme outsiders were taxen in various amounts,
and in every instance offered subsequently. In the cases of
Clear-the-Way and Pantasa, the backers would have gone
on ; the investments were not on an extensive scale. Closing
prices :
11 to 1 agst Forth's lot
10 to 1 agst Mr. Greville's Alarm
15 to 1 agst Lord Stradbroke's Idas
15 to 1 agat Col. Anson's Kedger

1000 to 30 agst Mr. Mostyn's Pantasa—taken
33 to 1 agst Mr. Gully's Weatherbit— thken
35 to 1 agst Mr. A. Johnson's Annandale •
40 to 1 agst Mr. Gully's Old England
50 to 1 agst Mr. Coleman's Young Eclipse—taken and
afterwards offered
1,000 to 15 agst Mr. Ford's Fuzbos—taken freely
3,000 to 20 agat Mr. Irwin's The Hermit—taken
1,000 to 10 agst Mr. Theobald's Desperation—taken.
OAKS.
2,800 to 200 was laid agat Maid of Orleans (afterwards off.),
and the same odds taken rather freely about Miss Elis. Two
or three parties appeared anxious to lay against Lancashire
Witch, but no price was made.

RAILWAY SPEED.-THE GREAT WESTERN RAlL-
waT.—The muck trains commenced running yesterday on the Great
Western hallway. The journey from Exeter to Lond. n, 194 nines,
was performed in tour hours and fifty-three minutes, up to the ticket
platform, and the passengers had alighted in the Paddington station
within the prescribed time of five hours. The down-train reached
Bristol, 1181 miles, in less than three hours, after stopping ten
minutes at Swindon, and calling at Dideot end Bath. The run-
ning time is calculated at fifty miles an hour, and we are infOrmed
that the whole journey was performed with eekeilint exactitude is
to time.
