plan, on a scale of not leas than four inches t 4 A mile, be de-
posited for public inspection at the office of the clerk of the
peace for every county, Ring, or division in Ireland, in or
through which the work ierproposed to be made, which plane
shall describe the lints or situation of the whole of the work,
and the lands in or through which it is to be made, or
through which every communication to or from the work shall
be made, together with a book of reference, containing the
names of the owners, or reputed owners, lessees, or reputed
lessees, and occupiers of such lands respectively, with a sec-
tion and a duplicate of the railway.
The Standing Order 23 A, also provides that a copy of all
plans, sections, and books of reference, together with a pub•
lished map, to a scale of not less than half-an-inch to a mile,
with the line of railway delineated threon, so as to show its
general course and direction, shall be lodged with the Board
of Trade, on or before the 30th of November.
There are other matters to which attention must be paid
on or before the 31st of December, such as lodging the plans
and sections, as far as they relate to each parish, with the
clerk of the union within which such parish is included, and
also depositing a copy of the said plans, sections, and books
of reference in the Private Bill-office of the House of Com-
mons, and in the office of the clerk of the Parliaments.
It is also required that before the 31st of December, the
notices enjoined by Standing Order 17 of the Commons, be
served on owners, lessees, and occupiers, and a list made out
distinguishing which of them have assented, dissented, or
are neuter, in respect to the proposed railway.
These are the principal orders which will have to be com-
plied with. There are other particulars, however, to which
we need not advert, as they are mere matters of detail. Any
company that is in a position to comply with the standing
orders, on or before the 30th instant, can experience no diffi-
culty in point of time in complying with all the other orders.

POLITICAL GOSSIP IN DUBLIN.
(From the Dublin Evening Post.)
This journal was the first which noticed the report of
serious differences amongst the members of her Ma-
jesty's Government. We did not say we had the rumour
from official quarters—such an assertion would be lu-
dicrously ab,urd. We only stated the rumour prevailed
in circles likely to be well-informed, and we gave it ac
cordingly. From that period (about a month ago)
to this, the story has been reproduced in a hundred
shapes—some of which we have noticed, as they turned
up in print. But, we do not remember that we have
seen before such a distinct—may we not say, such an
emphatic confirmation of our original statement, as we
find in the following paragraph, which we copy from
the Evening Mail of last night—the local organ, w 4
should infer, of the Castle, but, as in duty bound, the
enemy of her Majesty's general Government. We give
the article as we find it, without curtailment :
THE UNITED CABINET ! THE HAPPY FAMILY !
We are enabled, upon authority that has never yet mis-
led-us—or, through us, our rerders—to publish the fol-
lowing important communication, the authenticity of
which is intitled to implicit reliance :
LONDON, WEDNESDAY.- Each recent meeting of the
Cabinet has tended to increase the difficulty of union
amongst the members, until the scenes now consist of
criminatiocs and recriminations—dissension and differ-
ence—upon each particular point brought under discus
sion, and great bitterness of feeling on all sides in th 4
conduct of the argument. The heads of parties—for the
division is of a character so decided as to require leaders
—the Duke of Wellington upon the one hand, Sir Bober
Peel on the other. On Monday Lord Stanley openly
joined the Duke. There never has subsisted a good un-
derstanding between his Lordship and the Premier.
The consequence of this junction is, Sir Robert Peel has
been left in a minority on two most important divisiom
—the one in reference to the opening of the ports, the
other as regards the occupation of Chusan. It was de-
cided by a majority, against the Premier's proposition,
that the ports should not be opened for the imporin-
don of foreign corn (i.e., general grain crops), but
that rice and Indian corn should be admitted at nomi-
nal duties. With respect to Chusan—you may rely
upon it that Sir Robert was left in a minority ; and
that the policy to be pursued henceforward as to France
was decided upon against his views, and that the occu-
pation of that portion of the Celestial Empire wi►l bt
ceded. Sir Robert Peel is in a very delicate state of
health, and looks worn and haggard beyond belief.
This is the first time he has ever had an attack of gout ;
and it is not concealed amongst his adherents—the
place-hunters—that it has been brought on by unea-
siness of mind, and the pressure from without,' heti
at home and abroad. His satiation, politically and per.
sonally, is precarious and forlorn ; for he has left him
self without a political supporter upon principle, or a
private friend from feeling. What might he not havi
been ? What is he ? A Minister despised and de-
serted !"

The paltry spite, towards the concluson of the para-
graph, against Sir Robert Peel, is so Remyish—smells
so offensively of the shop—is so vulgar and so unmanly
—that it would excite a doubt in our minds as to the en-
tire statement, if there were not indications from other
quarters which satisfy us that there is something rotten
indeed.
that the state of Denmark. We do not think,
that Chusan has anything to do with the matter, and
with regard to the peddling about Indian corn and rye
excluding the higher grains, we look upon this accu-
rate and minute information as mere rubbish. The dif-
ference—if such there should be, as we believe there is—
did not turn upon any huxtering point of the kind, hut
on this broad one—namely, whether the ports should be
open to every kind of bread stuffs or not.
We say, we believe there are difficulties in the Cabi-
net, not upon the apocryphal and tainted authority be-
fore us, but on the plain and undeniable fact, that there
have been four meetings of the Cabinet within a week
—a thing, we believe, almost unprecedented—and that
no action has resulted. It is evident, that if the ques-
tion, as we suppose it to be, had reference chiefly to
the menaced famine, Ministers would have acted before
this time, if serious differences had not taken place.
They would have directed the ports to be opened by an
order in Council—or issued a proclamation for the im-
mediate assembling of Parliament. We do not say that
either would be free from embarrassment and inconve-
nience—but the pressure is. we hold it, irresistible. One
course or the other must be adopted, if not by the pre-
sent Cabinet, by its successors.

MINERAL SURVEY OF CANADA.
The report on a Geological Survey of Canada, pre-
sented to the House of Assembly last session, and or-
dered to be printed, is now published, and contains
matter of much general interest.
The Limestone formation, says the report, extenth at
least 30,000 square miles of the surface of the province.
It abounds in excellent materials, and its quality in
many places is sufficiently hard to take a fine polish, and
yield a good marble.
But in this vast district, we regret to say, the search
for coal will not be successful. Taking into considera-
tion the extremely moderate dip and the undisturbed
condition of the strata of limestone, and the general
even geographical surface of the country, and also the
depth of the strata below the point at which coal forrcia•
tions are found, we are not warranted reasonably to tin-
ticipate the finding of any coal between the top of Lake
Huron and Quebec.

But of iron the quantity found in the province is
likely to prove very considerable. Considering the
valuable deposits of this mineral already known !in
Marmora, sladoc, Bedford, Hull, &c., and the deflection
of the magnet over regions of great extent, it is not
unreasonable to hope that a diligent seach may diseli•se
provincial beds of equal consequence as those of New
York State.
'Tice deposit of gypsiferious shale, so valuable for
its gypsum salt, hydraulic lime, occupies nearly 611
that neck of land which separates Lake Ontaiio
from Lake Erie, skirts the shore of the former lake
through Niagara county, passes by Cayuga, Yqk,
and Paris, near Galt, on the Grand. River, and tuns
northward towards Cabot's [lead, on Lake Huron.
thickness of this depsit is estimated at three hundred
feet. About three and a half miles below Cayuga, there
is a hard solid bed of water lime, thirty feet thick. The
gypsum, it appears, is deposited in detached masses, al-
most invariably assuming more or less of a conical
shape. Adjacent to the gypsum, and indeed sonnetinlies
intermixed with it, are vast quantities of water Erne.
The beds worked in York and Paris are extensive, and
produce excellent gypsum. This part of Canada, efe
are informed, extending from Galt to Cayuga, cannot
fail in time, from the mineral contents of the subsbil,"
to become one of the most valuable parts of the pi.o•
vince.

An interesting discovery has been made of the
existence of lithographic stone at Rama on Lake
Simcoe. It is of the best quality, and the"-supply is viry
large, which is the more satisfactory, inasmuch as this
stone is only to be found in one other place in the
world—Solenhofen on the Danube—and has hitherto
commanded a monopoly price.
Mr. Murray, an assistant to Mr. Logan, the sur-
veyor, speaks in his report of ct remarkable spring,
neer Beamsville, which is frozen over in the sum-
mer months, but never in winter. " I visited it,"
he says, " on the 11th of September, when the wea-
ther was warm and sultry, and can bear testimony
that it was frozen over then, although the atmos-
phere was at eighty degrees within the distance of three
yards from its issue. It is concealed at.d protected from
the solar rays by great masses of rock that have fallen
down at the place. I have not yet teen it in winter, but
can credit the report given of it, as similar springs are
described by Mr. Murchison as existing in Russia, in
some red gypsiferous rocks of that country, but no satis-
factory solution bas yet been given of the phenomenon."
We sincerely _rejoice that Parliament has set this
survey on foot, because it must speedily disclose the
general mineral wealth with which the province is
eal Gaulle.

DoNDONALD, N0v.,3.-Harvesting can only be
said to have now been completed here. On Saturday the
last of the outsa'iding grain was secured in the barn yardr.
Many acres of potatoes still remain to be dug up, and in
many cases the farmers hesitate whether to raise • them or
not. The disease amongst them was at first-believed to be
only partial, but time has shown it to have been too general
and extensive in its ravages. With one or two exceptions,
there is not a farmer amongst us but has already lost one-
third of the crop;' some have lost the half, with the prospect
f the remainder, soon following the others; and in some
cases the crop is entirely gone. It is astonishing to witness
not only the huMble cottager, lint the wealthy and intelli-
gent agriculturist, following the very reprehensible practice
of feeding their cattle upon the diseased potatoes. Some
give them raw, others boil them ; and, though we have heard
of no injurious effects following their use, yet there cannot
be a doubt that the continued use of unwholesome food-,-
however slightly it may be diseased—must, sooner, or later,
injure the general health of the animal, deteriorate he secre-
tions—milk, for example—and ultimately generate disease
and death.—Ayr Observer.
EXTRAORDINARY CATCH OF FISH.-1311 Thursday
morning a large quantity of fine bass, the fish weighing from
7 to 8 lbs. each, were brought into Plymouth, and landed at
the Barbican, by some Cornish fishermen, who had caught
upwards of two tons weight, in Mount's Bay, on the pre-
ceding night. Most of the fish were packed in baskets, and
sent by coach to the Bristol, Bath, and London market,.
The bass, which is very similar to a salmon, is considered a
good fish.—Penzance Gazette.
WARSAW, OCT. 25. In consequence of the fear
of a scarcity of corn, the Council of Administration of the king-
dom of Poland has resolved to maintain in force till further orders
the prohibition to export rye, barley, and oats, and likewise to for. i
bid the exportation of peas, oatmeal, straw, and hay.
