On Monday

r
circles, to be
the yachts
long announced in the aquatic sporting
cove
yachts of this club, for a silver cup Lint
h
'presented by Earl Fitzhardinge, came off His Lordship
shoad Mabde
coat it conditional that the crews of the ting yachts
advuelidaltteouenttairid
elcomposed of members of the club, and that no
such
should
be derived from professional seamen, and
persons as are to be found in the fore-and-aft craft in the
river and on the coast. This made the match of more than usual
interest, and though accidents were contemplated. and measures
taken for their results, fortunately none of:Tinned. and the wh,le
match was sailed in a creditab,e manner. The copra steamer
Conveyed the company, amongst whom were the Duke of Marl-
borough, Lord Loftus, Lord Lisburne, Sir Houghton, &c., from
London.bridge to Greenwich, where the match wds to count,
and sail thence to Coal house Point and track to Gt..euwicti.
The following are the names of the yachts en ,aged in the contest
With their tonnage, tier.:—
The Phantom 20 tout ; London,
kinson,
The Belvidere, 25 tons; London. Lord A. Paget.
Prima Donna, 25 tons ; London. Mr. C. ft, Tazli
Widgeon, London. Mr T. E. Snook.
The start took place at Greenwich at ten mi, ut , past trcelcr
o'clock, the wind blowing tolerably fresh from the western.by-nor. h
Point of the compass. The Widgeon was the first to get .:was,
but maintained her position only for a moment. The Belvidere
took the lead off Blackwell, and kept it till the end of the match.
She rounded the buoy at Coal house Point at nine minutes past
three o'clock, p>w , and was pursued by the Prima Dolma, which
rounded at fourteen minutes past three o'clock. The Phantom
rouThied at fourteen minutes and a halt, and the Widgeon at
twenty-seven minutes past three o'clock. The match hack !o
Greenwich was not diversified by any incidents. The match was
won by Lord A. Paget, in the Belvidere, which rounded the flag
buoy at Greenwich at seven o'clock. The Prima Donna came in
at st x
minutes past eeven o'clock ; the Phantom at a qua. ter past
(flat hour, and the 'Widgeon at ten minutes atterwards. The
a°rotriodore, Mr. Harrison, presented the cup to Lord A. Paget,
and, amidst the cheers of the passengers, his Lordship returned
thanks. The match altogether was a good one ; the crews were
somewhat awkward, but their zeal made up for their nautical tie
aciencies, and as a whole the thing came off in good style.

THE RICHMOND FLEET AGROUND.—On Sunday
aliernocii the Richmond steamers, on their way from that place
neLondon, got aground in that part of the river called Strand Gut, r Kew. The first one that struck the bed of the Thames was
the Richmond. She was followed by the Era, and as the others
eitarae uP they grounded also. Ihe Childe Harold and the Lalla
°°kh, which run between Chelsea and Kew, were both stopped.
„
9`War on her way to Kew with two hundred passengers on board;
e other, with a similar freight, was proceeding towards London.
earner after steamer, tilled with people, came down from Hampton
e'3.-It Twickenham, Richmond, and Kew, and at last there were
:vessels aground. They were detained upwards of three hours
,41 the flood tide, which is two hours later than at London.

RAILIVA COMA' ft FEES
( ESTERDAY.)

HOUSE OF LORDS.
CALEDONIAN ILAILIIVAY.

This Committee met to-day at eleven o'clock, in the Vice- Chan-
lor's Court, Lord Radnor in the chair, when the examination of
witnesses was resumed.

Mr. Morris, who furnished Mr. Pare with a considerable portion
of his data regarding the traffic on the route of the line, gave eri-
•ence to that effect, and to its general correctness.

Mr. Nelson, butcher, of Glasgow, deposed respecting the number
of cattle that passed through the district for the English market.
The number of sheep and cattle was very large, and he had no
doubt the greater portion would be carried along this line.
Mr. Smith, factor, of Blackwood, near Glasgow; Mr Miller,
factor, of Cambernauld ; Mr. Robson, of Dumfries, and Mr.
Burrell, of Dumfries, severally gave evidence on the subject of
traffic. These witnesses were all examined in the Committee of
the House of Commons, and their evidence now was, in substance,
but a repetition of what was stated there.
Mr. Locke, civil engineer, was next examined. He went in
detail through the various engineering peculiarities of the line,
gradients, tunnels, cuttings, embankments, stations, &c., all of which
have already been fully reported. With respect to the accommoda.
Lion of Dumfries, it was the intention, he believed, to supply that
town with railway accommodation, though their branch had been
rejected in the Committee of the other House. He did not be-
lieve that the plans of the Glasgow, Dumfries, and Carlisle were
qualified for that purpose. They (the Caledonian) had agreed to
have an independent station at Edinburgh, and also to cross the
Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway at Castlecory, without touching
the railway. This was necessary, as the Edinburgh and Glasgow
Railway Company would oppose the construction of the present
line, and was now acting in conceit with the Glasgow, Dumfries,
and Carlisle, against the passing of the Bill.
Mr. ANDREWS cross.examined the witness at some length. He
admitted that the Caledonian would not give much accommodation
to the district of country through which the Glasgow, Dumfries,
and Carlisle line was proposed to be taken. The amount of ac-
commodation, however, could be much increased by omnibuses
horn the various towns to the railway stations. The Caledonian
line passed through a c, nsiderable portion of country very thinly
populated, yet, never' heless, it was a fine agricultural country.
He surveyed the south of Semiarid, for the purposes of a railway.
in 1836. and again in 184 u. He made reports of these surveys.
The seer rest gradient he proposed in 1841) was 1 in 100. In
the present plan, I io 75 was the severest. There were seve-
ral othets nearly as bovere. They could be very easily
worked by locomotive eniones. There was a gradient
on the Gloucester ami Birminglreat two ;rules in
'ungth lin 35, worked II a Neoinotive en,.; toe. It had always been
work:ti by a neortiotive Th., severeness of the pradiews was
rom,ens<eed by advantages of shortness of distance anti ,upetior
gr.- dir tits and levels on other portions of the line.
Mr. Locke was further cross.examined at great length respecting
the cti*tanco: ,t) Glasgow and Edinburgh of the line under consi-
tieretion, compared with the Gleegow, Dumfries, asid Carlisle on the
other side, and the Cal lisle, Hawick, and Edinburgh on the other,
with the view of showing that the latter lines would turnish a much
kuperier communic..tion hes w:xli the respective tetinini than the
former.

Mr. Errington, engineer, deposed to the general correctness of
the evidence given by Mr. Locke. He was examined at cot.
siderable lerigth on the in comparison with those pre,.
posed for the Glasgow. Dumfries, and Carlisle line . With respect
to these he ronsidered those on the Ca!edonia» line preterali:e, all
thing :inn:noel ed. It was only a choice between a 1 'ading giadient
of one in 75 and another of one in 100. with this advantage in
favour of the former gradient that it traversed a slimier distamie
than the lacier. There w,arld nut he a very great tnfferi.nce
between working a gradient of oin, in 75 and one in lOn each the
gnat improvement that had now taken place iii the power of loco.
motive eilgii:es.

With the es.aininativm of another witness, whose evidence was
not of a material character, the cast fur the promoters of the line
closed.

The case for the opponents of the Bill wil. come on to-morrow
at eleven o'clock, to which time the Committee adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
GROUP A.
On the Chairman taking his seat this morning,
Mr. AUSTIN addressed the Committee on the part of the pro-
posed atmospheric

LONDON, CROYDON, CHATHAM, AND OR-

PINGTON LINES,
and entered at great length into the merits of the three
proposed lines—the North Kent, the South-Eastern, and
the London and Croydon—and pointed out the fact,
that the proposed railway was in a direct line, which
was not the case with either of the other railways.
He (Mr. Austin) had been accused by Mr. Merrewether of privy
conspiracy with the North Kent Company, because he had not exa.
mined witnesses against the North Kent line; but he would de-
fend himself from that accusation by striking the death.blow to
that line. He would show that their traffic case was absurd,
it was grossly absurd, and he hoped when he had done
so, his friends on his right (Mr. Merrewether and Mr. Alexander)
would acquit him of the charge which they had made in his ab-
sence, for they dared not to make it in his presence.—(A laugh
from Mr. Merrewether.) But they need not rejoice in the fall of
the North Kent Company, for every oat in the coffin of that
Company was also a nail in the coffin of the South-Eastern, since
their case was entirely fituided on that of the North Kent Com-
pany, and was therefore as absurd ; indeed, it was more absurd.
There were d.grecs of adsurdity, and the North Kent had net
reached zero, to which point the South-Eastern Company Lad
de,cenued The tir.t great W:4urdity consisted in Mr. Vignolles
having calculated that he would draw off one-halt of the traffic from
th, r iver, though he would not com;ete with the steam boats in
I. os of prices; no man wishing to go (min London to Woolwieh,
and knuwing that ha could go by s.ealit. WA, tor a -nilii'.g, GUM
p:.y two shillings to go by the Notth Kent hue. &me id of who
had a right to live, and no mete, might put his hand Ili i i, pocket
aF:d pay two shillings for a less plea, ant passx..o than lie could get
for one, but let.him take aoy rational animal, with a co' and shoe,
on, and there was very little doubt of the nature of his en..ice.

But there was .mother absurdity. Mr. Vigil°lles proposed tee take
passengers coming to the station by laed at a rate of I ;)ii per mile,
and to carry passenger: corning by water, at a rate of>l, per mile,
though carried in the sane carriages and at the same rate. Now,
such a thing as. this had never been done on a Scotch lute, It
had never been stone on art English line, and he need
hardly assure the Hon. Member on the Chairman's right
(Mr. Roche) that it had never.
.been attempted on an Irish line.
He (Mr. Austin) was counsel for several Irish lines in other MOWS,
and he always found that if John and Peter, or to speak more appro-
priately, if they took Patrick and Phelim the same distance,
at the same ipeed, and eien in the sane car, they never thought
of charging 'Patrick a
penny Willie they charged Phelan only a
halfpenny. There we, many gentler absurdities in these traffic
tables, but he would only dwell on the most prominent. Mr. Austin
tau in several tables showing the exagg, rations of Mr. Vignol:es'
traffic tables,• and alluded shortly to the traffic tables of the South.
Eastern line.- He also enteredtutu 'a clutailea repetition of the
evidence on the sti,jevt of the estimates of Mr. Vignolles, all the
important poi, is en which have been published already in The
Sun. Mr. Austin then said hat he had but a very few words to
4ay wish regard to the South Eastern line. His friends on the
part of that line had no right to be there—they had no right
even to oppose the North Kent line, as they had no
Bill, but only a project. The oujectioirs to the tire
tables of the North Kent line all applied to those of the South_
Eastern line, and besides the objection to giving a decision in fa-
your of what is at present only a project, it must be remembered
that the South-Eastern Company had five other Bills be-
fore the Committee, and the total expense of these lines
was calculated at 7,500,00131., so that between seven and eight
millions of money were to be expended in Kentish speculations.
The Learned Counsel then entered into the question of the
gradients of the proposed atmospheric line. The question now be.
fore the Committee was not whether the gradients on the pro.
posed line were greater or less than those on the North Kent
lines, but whether, if a line through this part of Kent were
necessary, these were, or were not, the best that could be had ?
Mr. Austin then entered into a series of arguments as to the
practicability. of running locomotive carriages on gradients of
1 in 50, in case of the :allure of the atmospheric principle.
Mr. Sergeant WRANGIMI replied on the part of the
NORTH KENT LXNE,

and also spoke at some length as to the evidence on the subject of
the letters from Mr. Hignet, the solicitor of the Board of Ordnance,
and was still spvaking when Mr. Speaker was announced to be at
prayers.

The CHAIRMAN then asked whether Mr. Wrangham would be
able to conclude his address that evening, if the Committee were to
sit till five o'clock ?

Mr. Sergeant WRANGHASI thought he would.

Mr. ROCHE said he was very anxious that this portion of the
case should be concluded that night, as, being in the hands of a
physician, ant having attended the Committee for five days, in
direct opposition to his orders, he might not be able to attend the
Committee if ii adjourned till to-morrow.

,The Chairman then left the room, in order to obtain leave to
sit till five n'etock. On has return,

Mr. Sergeant WR.ANCRAM continued his address, and re-
ferred to that part of Mr. Austin's speech in which he
said that it was intended by the North Kent Com-
pany to charge 134 d. for each passenger by land, and
%d. for each passenger by water. It was their intention to charge
per mite for third-class passengers, 1 lid. for second-class
passengers, and 2%d. t'or first-class passengers. It was for this

reason that persons coming by water were set down at f4d ptr
mile, as such persons were most likely to go by the third.cl4,B

can iages

On the conclusion of Mr. Sergeant WRANOHAM'S speech,
The CIiaIRMAN 5.,.(1, that as it wa, now five o'clock, • and the
Committee KV(' not powrr to sit beyond that hour, the vote could
not he given this vveohsg.
Mr MERREfWETHER,,uggestd that the Chmmittec might intimate

their intention.
Mr. Witaxonait said that it would be a great convenience to
Coui,ei to know the intention of the Commix tee.
Mr. ALEXANDER thought the Committee could give their votes
with the consent of the parties.
The CHAIRnAN desired that the rocnni be c:eared.
After a short consultation strahgers were readmitted, and
the CHAIRMAN said that the Committee would not give their formal
vote until toanorrow morning, but it was their intention to vote

that the preamble of the London, Chatham, and North Kent Bi
wag not proved, nor wa‘ that of the London and Croydon Bill.
The Committee Rave no vote nu to thy South.Eastere as it

The Committee then adjourned till twelve o'clock to-morrow.

The Commiltte resumed the consideration of the claw.es of
these various Bills this morning, and commenced with those of the
Guildford, Chichester, and Port-mouth line.
On the clause which provided for the erection of a station " at
or near Godalming," some discussion arose, the Chairman wishing
something more definite; but the subject was eventually left to the
settlement of Messrs. Talbot and Gurney.

The provisions of the London and Portsmouth Direct (atmo-
spheric) line, were then discussed, and the Committee were en-
gaged the remainder of the day in fixing the tolls and other formal
arrangements for the rail. The time allowed for the construction
was named at five years instead of seven, as originally required. A
few technical alterations and additions were made, and the Com_
mittee adjourned at four o'clock.

THE SOUTH WALES RAILWAY.

The Committee on the South- Wales Railway Bill, which had
been referred back to them by the House of Commons, for the pur.
pose of proceeding with the remaining clauses, in order ghat the
Bi►l might be reported, assembled this morning at twelve o'clock,
Mr. E. Buller in the chair.

Mr. COCLBURN took as objection to the clauses being proceeded
with, and was about to state the grounds of his objection, when
he was interrupted by

The CnAiSmeN, who inquired whether, under the circumstances
