To TILE LADIEs.--The high and universal cele-
brity which IlowLAND's BAIA-non. continues to main-
tain, as an active yet mild and soothing extirpator of all
impurities of the skin, is, during the present period most
pleasingly evinced. This preparation eminently balcande,
restorative, and invigorating, is equally celebrated fur
safety in application, as for unfailing efficacy in remov-
ing all impurities and discolorations ; and imparting a
healthy freshness to the skin and complexion. Its uni-
versally great demand excites the cupidity of ttnprin:
cipled Shopkeepers, who give the title of " Genuine •'
KALYDOR to some compounds of their own manufacture,
of the most deleterious character, containing mineral.
astringents utterly ruinous to the complexion, and, by
their repellant action endangering health. It is, there-
fore, imperative on purchasers to see that the words
" ROWLAND'S KALYDOA" are on the wrapper. All others
are FRAUDULENT CoUNTERFBITS I !

RAILWAY COMMITTEES.
(YESTERDAY.)

HOUSE OF LORDS.
TELE CORNWALL IFLAMWAY.

Their Lordships met at eleven o'clock in the Lord Chancellor's
Court. When their Lordships took their seats none of the opposing
counsel were present, whereupon
The Earl of ELLENBOROUCH (the. Chairman), whose pdnctuality
'is remarkable, observed that the counsel ought to beat their places
at eleven o'clock. The Committee ought not to be dilated ; they
were punctdal, and so ought the lawyers to be.
The cross-examination of Captain Moorsom was resumed. The
land on the line would cost 58,1601. ; the fencing about 26.0001. ;
the earthwork 158,6081.-; 'masonry, 157,0661.; tunnelling,
29,000/. ; permanent way, 254,118/. ; stations, about 51,0001.
The expense of the branch to Bodmin was—land, 3,5501.; fencing,
1;473/.; earthwork, 8,3331.; masonry, 6,0251.; permanent way,
15,1211. The line would be a doublelecomotive line.
The cross-examination of Captain. Moorsom was continued
during almost the remainder of the day, hat nothing was elicited
but dry engineering local details, which have been already before
the public.
A question arose respecting the assent of the Admiralty to one of
the bridges on the projected line, which creases a creek. It was in.
sinuated by Mr Rowe that that assent had not been obtained,
whilst Mr. M-rrivale objected to the disclosure of any arrangements
which had taken place between the officers of the Admiralty and
the promoters of the present Bill.
Mr. Rows contended that the knowledge of the assent or dissent
of the Admiralty to any part of the line which interfered with
navigation was absolutely indispensable to the Committee, for
otherwise the Committee might be uselessly consuming their time in
examining into the merits of a line which, after all, the Govern-
ment might throw out.
There was a long argument on this head, and a great deal of
legal ingenuity expended.
Tne Committee decided that questions on this head might be put
generally.
Mr. Mows then resumed the cross examination of Captain Moor.
som on this head, but nothing of interest or importance transpired.
Mr. Bastrick, engineer of the London and Brighton Line—Exa
mined the projected line. The ruling gradient in one part of the
line was one in sixty, and another one in forty. There would be
no more difficulty or danger in working a light train on such gra-
dients than a heavy train on better ones. Tne curves had nothing
to do with the gradients. The worst curve was one of fifteen
chains radius.

The remainder of tele day was occupied in the cross-examination
of this witnets, and the Committee aijourntd at four o'clock.

SC 0 1"I' IVIIDI.III. D RAILWAY.

The Coinmittee re-assembled this morning, and soon after pro-
ceeded with the further cOns.deration of the Bill before them.
The evidence of the traffic was gone into, and Mr. Byers, who
had superintended the making up of the traffic tables, was exa-
mined at considerable length. He went minutely into the details
of the manner in which he had instructed the persons employed
how to take the traffic, and explained the mode by which the tolls
on various tumpike-roads might be evaded by passengers travelling
along the by roads.
At this stage of the proceedings, Mr. ANDREWS objected to the
evidence being proceeded with, on account of the absence of some
of the books from which the traffic tables had bean compiled.
After some discussion, the objection was overruled, and the exa.
mination was allowed to go on.
The examination of the witness was resumed. It appeared that
the annual income expected to be derived from the passenger-
traffic amounted in the whole to 9,9091, 125., which, being
doubled rding to Parliamentary usage on railway matters,
would give a twat result of 19,8191. 45.. annually. The income
from goods, including cotton, cloth, flax, wool, stone, elate, wood,
potatoes, and geueral merchandise, amounted to 4,1521. 16s. lAd.
'From c .als and lime a return of 4,553/. per annum would be
realised. Far and lean cattle and sheep, exclusive of lambs, would
y;c,rl a•• income of 3 7111 10s. 7d. The gross total revenue de..
"r We, rr,rn tt,esc d•f?_•rent sources, including the revenues of the
two sma' railways which the Company intended to purchase, and
parcds and m tits, would amount to 36,8581. 12s. 3d.
The examination and re-examination of this witness occupied
their Lordships nearly the entire day. All the facts which he stated
have aiready appeared in the report of his evidence before the Com-
mittee of the House of Commons.
Mr.. Pare was examined, and corroborated the evidence of the
previous witness in every particular.
At the ca.ise of the evidence their Lordships adjourned.

o;.:rarrD, WOR.ZIZ3II.E2, AND WOLVERr

Et ArtICPTOIIT.

The Committee met to.day at the usual hour, Lord Radnor in
the cnair, when the examination of witnesses was proeeeded with.
[We have to correct a misprint in our report of yesterday, in
which Mr. Bond, of Kin-winford, in speaking of the carriage of
coal from that place to the south, is represented to have said that
the carriage to London was Is. 7d.—it should have been 171.]
Mr. Harrington, of Oxford, was the first witness called this
morning, z.nd examined by Mr. TALBOT—He represented the feel-
ing of Oxford tc be generally in favour of the present line of rail-
way. They considered it was the one best calculated for the wants
of the district. By the Tying line the traffic from Worcester to
London did not touch at Oxford, whereas the Great Western line
did. He considered it would confer great benefit on the town and
neighbourhood. There was a great demand for coals in Oxford-
shire, while agricultural produce was sent in large quantities to the

north.
The cross-examination of the witness did not elicit any point of
material importance.
Mr. Hannon and Mr. Steel deposed as to the local traffic, which
they descrin.-.1 would be much better accommodated by the Great
Western Company than by the London and Birmingham.
Mr. James Lemon, of Chipping Norton, gave evidence as to the
traffic of that place. The sale of barley annually in the Chipping
Norton m irkei was 15,000 quarters. The district was an im-
portant agricultural one, and for its produce there was at present
-no cheap or easy mode of searching the mineral and manufacturing
districts. In the ev nt of a railway being formed, the agricultural
pio.lut;e of the south would find its way at a cheap rate into the
po,atious distriots of the north. By this means both north and
south would be benefited. He considered the line promoted by the
Urea, W, stern scheme much the best of the taro.
Mr. S,ssions, brewer of Charle.ley, near Oxford, was examined
respecting the trade and traffic of that town. The population of
. the town and neighbourhood was 7,700 The consumption of
coal was at present about 6,000 tons yearly. This cost very high
prices at present. it was his conviction that it the present line
were formed, it wou'd create a reduction in the price of coal equal
to all the poor-rates of the district. There was a large manufac-
tory of gloves in the town employing about 600 persons. These
:goods cost in carriage from 2001. to 3001. yearly. The annual
*mount of groceries, received principally from London, was in
weight 130 ions. There was a considerable amount of glass used
lathe town and neighbourhood, which at present was charged at a
•ery high rate of carriage.
Cross-examiked by Mr. Hom—His estimate of the reduction
in the price of coal that might be expected by the construction of
the line was founded on the supposition that coals would be charged
Id. per ton per mile.
Mr. Lancaster, ironmonger of Lancaster, deposed to the advan.
tage which the proposed line would confer on the trade in which he
was engaged. He did a large business with Wolverhampton in
ironmongery goods. He considered that a saving would be effected
of 21. 3s. per ton. He estimated that they would be bought by
the present line at the rate of 1/. 10s. per ton. He paid at pre-
sent fora ton of goods from Wolverhampton 31. 133. 3d., 21. 1 ls.
to London, and 11. 2s. 3d. from thence to Southampton. He paid
alone for carriage to the South. Western Company the sum of 3501.
annually.

Cross- examined by Mr. HOPE—The South-Western Company
took off a considerable discount for large quantities of goods, from
30 to 40 per cent. on quantities above five tons. The charge without
the discount was about 3d. per ton per mile. That was their maxi:num.
Ha was not aware that the Great Western line gave any discount.
"They charged, he believed, 3d. per ton per mile. He once had great
Objection io the breaks on the lines, on account of the transhipments
of go.pds. He give evidence to that effect last year, but having
.chine for fatilitating the change of goods, his
opiu.t,n of tile difficulty iiad much altered.
Mr. Tnuluas,Cougreve, near Rugby, was next examined. He
fattened beast for the London market, but could not send them there
',by railway, on account of the high charges. He travelled them
'Alla to London at present. His neighbours did the same.
• captain Finish, secretary of the Grand Junction Railway Company,

panics. He stated that, in self.defence, the Grand Junction was
under the necessity of taking steps to effect an in-
dependent communication to London, because the Lon-
don and Birmingh,im, through the Churnet Valley, and
other schemes, were seeking to reach Liverpool without corning on
the Grand Junction line. He likewise bore evidence as to the ease
with which transhipment could take place from the broad to the
narrow gauge.

• Mr. Brunel, civil engineer, was neat called—The evidence,
which was not closed at the rising of the Committee, was
?generally the same as that given before the Commons'
Committee. He started, on the map, with the line beginning
.at 'Oxford, and tracing it through its route, past Moreton-in-the-
Marshes, Evesham, Worcester, Droitwich, Kidderminster, Stour.
bridg., Brierley Hill, Dudley, to its final termination in the Grand
...TUnctio, lin, at Wolverhampton. The engineering peculiarities
ate tie.scriord to be very favourable. There were only two tun-
nels, one 860 yards, near to Moreton, and another at Dudley, 946
Bards. After explaining the mode in which the line connected itself
with the various towns, and the sites and peculiarities of the vari-
alus station 4, the Committee adjourned till Monday at II o'clock.
