RAILWAYS. •
It has been stated that the applications to Par-
liament, this session, for Railway Bills, will be more
numerous than they have been in any year since.
1830 ; that the lines to which the contemplated Bills
relate extend 600 miles in length, and that the pros
jectors are so confident of carrying their Bills as to
have already, in their eagerness to commence pro-
ceedings, entered into contracts for the formation of
these railways, at an expense, including stations, of
10,0001. per mile. We have so much reason to eon-
fide in the general authenticity of this statement, as
to feel it our duty to direct the earliest attention of
the public to the important considerations • which
connect themselves with the facts which it com-
prises. Could any argument more cogent be
adduced for the necessity of that preliminary controll-
ing and economical legislation touching the com-
mencement and construction of new railways, which
the public convenience has so long and so vainly de-
manded ? The public convenience—emphatically, it
is—which is immediately and most deeply involved
in these projects for enlarging and multiplying the
lines of intercommunication between important pro-
vincial towns and the capital, or the capital and the
coast—with whatever, as yet, undetermined, because
future practical results, certainly not without an ex-
pense to the public at large of very grave present
inconvenience—of serious prejudice to private pro-
perty under certain circumstances—and of the dis-
placement of a large amount of existing facilities and
accommodation for travelling.
It is hardly necessary, at this time, to guard our-
-selves against misconstruction by reiterating the con-
viction we have so often expressed as to the magical
effects of the extension of railroad communication,.
wherever it- is extensively diffused throughout a
country. It removes, or rather counteracts the
physical—and overcomes the moral—obstacles, which.
the remoteness of given points from the general
centre of intelligence and refinement would other-
wise ;present to the prompt spread of the knowledge,
'and arts, and civilization there collected. It is the
great extirpator of local prejudices. It is the in-
forming power which animates the extremities with
.the same vitality and energy that throb in the. heart
of a nation's social system. It brings the dwellers
'in the North into habitual and easy contact with
those of the South; and to the long segregated po-
pulation of the East, introduces, as it were without
'effort or difficulty, their brethren of the West. It
*erases the frontier lines described by geographical
'or political divisions ; and with them—by certain
but irresistible degrees—the antagonistic feelings
which have grown up on either side of those lines.
It approximates distances by a marvellous abridg-
ment of the time which it would heretofore have re-
quired to traverse them. For these, and other
;obvious reasons, railroads are among the most
'efficient and valuable administrators,' not merely to
`the sum or mass of human intelligence and happiness,
but to its distribution
"and the distribution of good
is as difficult a problem in the economy of ethics,
'as the distribution of money is in our monetary.
'system. But even the establishment of railways is
not an unmixed good. If it drives out of the field one
monopoly of travelling on the high road by coaches, it
establishes another, and a stringent one, on its own
un.competable lines. It annihilates altogether the
facility of moving from any nne intermediate point
to another on these high roads or their vicinity,
which are not within the easy reach of rai lwa
stations. It sacrifices; wherever it appears, a vast
portion of property previously invested in hotels and
inns, stabling, public stage-coaches horses for their
various relays, posting houses, and the cattle em-
ployed by them, together with the business of so
many coach-makers, spring manufacturers, white-
smiths' saddlers, harness makers, forage growers
and dealers ; a numerous array of shop-
keepers, and inferior chapmen (all interested in the
investments of capital under the old system), the
farmers of turnpike trusts and the unfortunate holders
of securities upon tolls. These mischiefs, extensive
and various as they are, it may be urged are still but
partial ones ; for that, on a comparison of good and
evil, of pulpit advantage and disadvantage, the
balance is clearly in favour of railroads. We may
grant all this ; and concede the corollary—that there-
fore the evil occasioned by the establishment of rail-
roads must be accepted as an inevitable consequence
;of the conditions on which only they can be estab-
lished.
But other evils, not inevitable consequences, not
necessary results of those conditions, have crept in
:with the laying down of our existing railroads,
,the experience of which justifies us in assum-
ing that, with regard to any lines hereafter
to- be constructed, they may be clearly avoided by
adopting such a previous system of legislation, for the
:economic control and direction of their original esta-
blishment as that to which we have alluded in the out-
set. We should be the last to advocate any unneces-
sary intervention, either by the Government or the
Legislature, with any investments of private capital
in this country that are permissible by the of the
land. But, railroads are a species of public works
sui generis. If they succeed, their advantages and
the benefit their proprietors derive from them, cannot
be, as hs .almost every other undertaking, interfered
with or jeopardised by the competition of other par-
ties in the same object, and over the same ground.
The Parliament will not grant to two separate com-
panies power to purchase the fee simple as it were,'
of parallel' strips of freehold throughout so many
-miles of country, in order to run their lines
from and to neighbouring termini. Separate-
companies—two or more, would not be found
to subscribe a million or two, each, of capital
in so vast and desperate an experiment of competi-
tion, were Parliament even to grant them the neces-
sary powers. But private dealers or gentlemen may
start this week the finest and the best horsed public
conveyances to be found in Europe, to run through-
out an entire line of 100 miles ; and next week a 'few
Jews may combine their capital, and produce an or-
ganised opposition of well-appointed coaches, hand-
some teams, &c., for the very purpose of being
,
" bought off the road," as it is termed, by the original
parties, at a heavy sum. If their predecessors on the
line do not consent to embarrass themselves by clos-
ing with the exorbitant proposals of their " opposi-
tion," the latter " run" against them; and then the
contest is continued a roulrance till one of the parties
gives in. Sometimes, indeed, both are utterly ruined,-
leaving to their creditors, out of the wreck of a large
property sacrificed in this insane sort of emulation' a
dividend neither larger nor more valuable than the
tips of the tails of the Kilkenny cats, of combative
memory.
In the debates of the House of Commons during
Lord Morpeth's Irish Secretaryship, it was well
shown what ought to be the supervision which the
Legislature should exercise over the preliminary se-
lection and works of a few railways. Some of the
propositions then made were finally adopted-and have
passed into law ; others, at least equally important
were passed over. But it is not enough" that eminent
engineers, civil and military, should rellest upon the
practicability of a proposed line ; there should be
better previous guarantees that it irthe best"
which could be adopted for the locality Every new
line ought to be sanctioned only in reference
to its present, or possible, or ultimate relations to a
scheme or line of railroad communication through
the great divisions of the length and breadth of the
land. It should be ascertained that wherever public
convenience may demand it, it can be joined to main
lines already laid down and in work, by branches of-
fering the best facilities of level;subsoil, &c., for. their
future construction. There should be no hazard of
bringing any two of these huge arteries of social
communication too closely into juxtaposition. .sk

the superficial outline of the. country will allow, re.
order to provide for these and other
jeess6 etenatiall3Lta' ingements, there should be organised
previously, and deposited with the Legislature or the
tiovernment, some_generel scheme or plan, showing
•the most eligible and most requisite lines of railway,
not yet constructed, over the whole British islands;
and all applications for new Bills should be enter•
tamed or dismissed, in proportion as their intended
lines might be found to approach to or be incompa.
tible with such general scheme of railway projections

We all know how much inconvenience, loss of pro-
perty, and even of life, and inadequate accommoda-
tion, have ensued on some existing railroads from the
want of such forecast and pre-arrangement as we
desire to see established in these matters. It must
lever be forgotten that of all errors of mechanic'al
'onstruction the most difficult and most expensive to
"epair are those which are framed in substantial oak
scantling-, rivette.d iri .iron, and imbedded, clamped,
and embanked iii the soil, by the incessant labour of
hundreds of artisans, and at an outlay of hundreds of
thousands of pounds sterling ! .

DEATH OF THE DUKE OF COBURG
On Saturday, at four o'clock in the morning, an ex-
press reached Buckingham Palace, announcing the de-
cease of his Serene Highness the Duke of Saxe-Coburg
and Gotha, the father of his Royal Highness Prince Al-
bert. The melancholy event, was altogether unexpected,
for no previous information of his Serene Highness's in-
disposition had been received at Court. So early as
decorum would' permit, this truly melancholy intelli-
gence was imparted to the Queen and his Royal High-
ness Prince Albert.

At ten o'clock a telegraphic dispatch was received at
the Admiralty announcing the same sad event.
It is considered as a most extraordinary circumstance
that no direct information relative to this important-
event should have been received from Germany.
Ernest Anthony Charles Lewis, Duke of Saxe-
Coburg-Saalfeld, was born on the ;2d of January, 1784,
and succeeded his father on the 9th of December, 1806.

The Mike had been twice married; first, to Dorothy
Louisa Paulina Charlotte Frederica Augusta, daughter
of Augustus, the last Duke but one of Saxe-Gotha-
Altenberg, from whom he separated on the 31st of
March, 1826. On the 23d of December, 1822, the Duke
married Antoinette Frederica Augusta Maria Anne,
Princess of Wirtemberg. By the first marriage the
issue was Ernest Augustus Charles John Leopold
Alexander Edward, hereditary Prince of Saxe-Coburg
and Gotha, born on the 21st of June, 1818 ; and
Albert, the young bridegroom elect of Queen Victoria,
born on the 26th of August, 1819, and therefore not
of the legal age of twenty-one until August, 1840. The
Queen was hem on the 24th of May, 1819, and is,
therefore, three months older than her husband.
• When, during the war in Germany, which was ended
by the peace of Tilsit, Napoleon found that the here-
ditary Prince Ernest, now Duke of Coburg, was at the
Prussian head quarters, he issued a proclamation,
declaring him his particular enemy, and caused formal
possession to be taken of his territories. All the
property belonging to the ducal family was seized, and
a very heavy contribution imposed on the country,
which had already suffered by the passage of the
French army.
During this period of distress Prince Leopold re-
mained with his mother, who, but for him, would have
been entirely deserted, attentively watching over the in-
terests of his family.
. It was not till the peace of Tilsit, that by a particular
stipulation, the house of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld was re-
instated in its possessions. Duke Ernest, however, on
his return, found the finances dilapidated by the French
authorities, the institutions entirely ruined, and his
country to the last degree impoverished. Having re-
mained at Coburg time enough to put his affairs some-
what in order, Duke Ernest went to Russia in 1808, and
resided there for some time, leaving his possessions to
the care of his brother Leopold, now King of the Bel-
gians.
On the 9th of DeCZTeber,lBo6, died the eccentric Duke
Frederic of Gotha-Altenbett by which event his estates
came into the possession of Duke Ernest, by virtue of
the Salic law, established by Ernest the kiwis. • He
shared, at that time, the inheritance of Gotha-Altenberg
with his cousins the Dukes of Meinengen and Hildburg-
hausen, and left the duchy of Saalfield to the Duke of
Meinengen. It was thus Duke Ernest exchanged
the title of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld for that of Duke of
Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.
For some time after the demise of the sovereign Duke,
Gotha remained without any regular succession, the
public administration being conducted in the name of
the widow, until, by a convention, dated the 12th Novem
her, 1826, it was agreed that the Duke Ernest of Saxe-
Coburg-Saalfeld, brother to Prince Leopold of Coburg,
should take possession, of the principality for himself and
heirs. His Serene Highness, in consequence of that con-
vention assumed the title of Duke of Saxe-Coburg and
Gotha, as such, and made his solemn entry into Gotha
on the 25th of that month.

For the last few days we have had pretty sharp
frosts, and yesterday morning a rather heavy fall of snow
came on, which continued most of the day, and so far
blocked up the roads as considerably to impede vehicles on
common roads. It appears, also, from the same cause, the
traffic was retarded on the South-Eastern Railway, as the
coaches from Folkestone to Dover did not arrive here in their
usual order. The morning papers, which usually reach
Dover by the railway about one o clock, had not arrived here
at ten o'clock last mght.—Dorer Chronicle of Saturday.
RIPON.—DEATH OF A CENTENARIAN.-011 Mon-
day, 22d ult., George Wharton, the oldest man in Yorkshire,
paid the last debt of nature, having attained the patriarchal
age of 112 years. This venerable old man, having outlived
his annuity; in September last, changed his abode at Laver-
ton, near Ripon, for the house of his nephew, a respectable
farmer, on Masham Moor-heads, where he died, and from
whence, on Thursday last, his mortal remains were removed
for interment, according to his desire, in the parish church-
j;ard of Kirby Malzeard. Until within a few days of his
death he retained: the use of his faculties. His vivacity of
spirits, the sprightliness of his person, and, above all, the
piety of his mind, will long be remembered by those who had
the happiness of paying old George a visit in his cot upon the
bankS of the Laver.—York Courant.

Frederick Charles Burnham Blackwell, a person
