IMPORTANT INFORM AVON TO MARINERS.—DIREC-
TIONS TOR ENTERING SWAN RIVER.—A letter has
been received at Lloyd's from Captain David Dring,
of the Janet, calling attention to the number of vessels
lost at Swan River, which he attributes to the imper-
fect directions given by certain parties, and to its not
being generally known that a clear passage channel
fOr tlnterlng exists between Rottenesh and the Main.
He observes that, under the existing custom com-
manders of wasels pay a heavy pilotage for unneces-
sary services, and that it is not until after a ship is
clear of all dangers that she is boarded by a pilot, and
that a vessel to the northward of a patch of sand,
04110(1. The Winding Sheet," is four miles inside of
all dangers. He concludes by stating that the clear
channel through Nhich he has passed for the space-of
ten years, between Rottenesh and the Main, is about
nine miles wide, void of danger, whereas the more
intricate passages do not exceed a quarter of a mile in
width.

RAILWAY TRAIN A THIRD OF A MILE IN LENGTH.
—The longest railway passenger train we ever heard
of went along the Slammannan and contiguous lines
on the day when her Majesty passed through Lin-
lithgow. That town formed a convenient rendez-
vous for the inhabitants of the populous towns and
villages in the upper ward of Lanarkshire, who ac-
cordingly availed themselves in great numbers of
the facilities placed at their disposal by the Railway
Companies. In the course of the morning trains
from Wishaw, Coatbridge, &c., arrived with- crowds
of passengers at Rawyards, where the Slamannan
Company were provided with' their own and the Garn-
kirk carriages, besides all the coal-waggons which
were fitted with malleable iron wheels. The first
train that started for the eastern terminus consisted
of about 90 carriages, waggons, &c., full of people,
hauled by two engines, and assisted up to the head
of the Ballochney Railway by four additional en.
gines. Two other trains, one of 40 carriages, sup
ceeded at intervals in the forewent' and the whole
of the pasengers were landed in safety at the east
end by twelve &clock, and were thus enabled to be in
Linlithgow two hours before the Royal party ar-
rived. The Managers of the Slamannan, Ballochney,
and Wishaw linen, then consulted as to the best
method of getting the people home, and resolved
with the view of obviating all risk of collision by
separate trains, to send all the passengers west in
one train. The return train consisted of 110 car-
riages and waggons, which were filled by about
1,500 people. The train, which was about one-third
of a mile in length, started at five o'clock, drawn
by four engines, and propelled by one; and the pas-
sengers were all landed, without the slightest acci-
dent having occurred, at their respective stations
in the course of the evening. We doubt very much
whether a similar feat has ever been performed on
any railway in the kingdom,. although this is not a
regular passenger line ; and yet it is nothing to what
might be achieved in a case of emergency by th 3
London and Birmingham Railway Company, whi&l
has between 90 and 100 engines, and a proportionate,
number of carriages.--Scottish Guardian.
