GREAT SOUTHERN and WESTERN and WATERFORD and
LIMERICK JUNCTION RAILWAY.
The promoters of this undertaking having obtained the support
and co-operation of the Great Southern and Western Railway Com-
pany, propose to construct a line of railway from Clonmel to Thurles,
via Cashel and Holycross, a distance of twenty-nine statute miles,
to connect the Great Southern and Western with the Waterford and
Limerick Railway, and thus establish for Clonmel a direct communi-
cation with the metropolis by a route the shortest of any yet pro-
posed.
This project now appears before the public with this strong recom-
mendation, " That the Great Southern and Western Railway Com-
pany, being already empowered by their Act to make that part of
the line lying between Thurles and Cashel, have consented to use the
powers vested in them for the benefit of this Company."
This railroad, passing through one of the most fertile and populous
parts of Ireland, will afford accommodation to a district containing
snore than 100,000 inhabitants, and abounding in agricultural pro-
duce ; for which Clonmel, the first inland town in Ireland, with its
extensive mills, breweries, bacon yards, and distillery, offers a cer-
tain market.
This line will also secure to the northern parts of Tipperary, and
the adjoining counties, the most expeditious conveyance to the port
of Waterford.
The extensive collieries of Slievardagh, worked by the Mining
Company of Ireland, lie contiguous, and must prove a great source
of revenue to this Company. Our engineer has been instructed to
examine and report on the best mode of connecting them with the
Blain line.
Calculating from the traffic tables proved before the Committees of
the House of Commons, in the cases of the Great Southern and
Western end Waterford and Limerick Railway Companies, for the
adjoining districts, the Committee look with confidence for an ample
return for the capital invested.
A preliminary survey of the line has been made ; no engineering
difficulties present themselves; no tunnelling nor deep cutting will
be required ; no demesne s will be interfered with, and it is calculated
that 10,0001. per mile will be more than sufficient to complete the
undertaking.
This is not a competing line, and has obtained the sanction
is and sun-
p-
port of nearly all the landowners through whose property it i
tended to pass.
Powers will be taken in the Bill to lease this railway to, or con-
tract with any other Company, so as to ensure the greatest economy
In working the line.

SHOOTING.—The Heather-coloured JACKET
of Llama Wool retains the principles of Shape given in Nicoll's
Registered Paletot. There are many gentlemen who have no liking
for field sports, yet would much incline to the Registered Jacket, it
not confining the chest and giving a general sense of freedom ; no
slight recommendation for the library or the early morning walk in
the country ; but the Registered Jacket, for the purpose designed,
viz., shooting, is truly good. The Heather recommended, but many
patterns may be seen at most of the agents in the principal country
towns, or at the spacious Warehouses, 114, Regent-street, London.

THE Rev. F. OAKELEY.—There was an unusually
large attendance at Margaret-street Chapel yesterday morning,
partly in consequence of Sir Herbert Jenner Fust's order that Mr.
Oakeley
suspension should be declared in the course of the ser-
vice, and panty in consequence of a rumour which had obtaincd
circulation that the Rev. W. U. Richards, the assistant minister,
would speak out somewhat
plainly on the course of proceeding
adopted by the diocesan. At eleven o'clock Mr. ftichards
from the vestry-room into the chapel
their accompanied by five or six
little boys in surplices, all of whom, with minister, stopped at
the foot of the altar, and reverently bowed to a large wooden cross
which was placed on the table. Prayers were read, the minister
standing the whole time, even during the communion service,
with his back to the congregation—a practice which, though it
may have ecclesiastical sanction, has no claim to decency. At the
close of the communion service Mr. Richards ascended the pulpit
in his surplice, and gave for his text the 11th chapter of St. Mark's
Gospel, sth verse, but the sermon contained no allusion to what
bad recently occurred :—" The poor have the Gospel preached to
them." Then came the offertory, the money being collected by
the surpliced boys in purple purses, bearing in front a large cross.
The prayer for the church militant concluded the service. At the
close of the prayers, and, indeed, at every stage of the service, the
coniregation expected the reading of the order for suspension, but
they were doomed to disappointment, as no intimation of the matter
, and the only unusual thing was the absence of Mr.
was given
Oak.eley himself.
BRITISH COMMERCE WITH CHINA.—Some very in-
teresting documents have just been presented to Parliament
by Royal command, relative to trade at the Chinese ports of
Canton, Amoy, and Shanghai, for the past year, as received
from her Majesty's Plenipotentiary in the Celestial empire.
It thence appears that there has been a great increase of
British trade at Canton, particularly in cotton goods, notwith-
standing the resort of our shipping to the newly-opened ports
of China ; and it is stated by Mr. Davis that " the previous
will on the part of the people has completely died away, the
fifth instalment of the indemnity being paid without the slightest
popular demonstration." The number of tonnage of merchant
vessels which arrived and departed from Canton, during 1844,
:from different countries, was 306 vessels of 142,099 tons in-
wards, and 296 ships of 140,182 tons outwards. The import
trade with Canton in that year was carried on in 206 British
vessels and 96 Hong-Kong " lorchas," and the various arti-
cles supplied formed a total amount of 15,929,132 dollars, in-
clusive of treasure. British manufactures and staple articles
were imported to the amount of 7,860,676 dollars, among
which were woollen goods amounting to 2,898,866 dollars,
and cotton fabrics, including yarns, to more than four and a
half millions, while the importation of raw cotton and other
products of India and the eastern countries forms an item of
upwards of seven and a half millions more. Thi
fort s is exc
thousanlusive d
of opium, of which latter article, it is stated, y
dieste were supplied last year alone by the contraband trade,
representing a capital of nearly twenty millions of dollars.
During the same period, 4,745,448 yards of British woollens
and 1,158,476 pieces of cotton goods were imported. ex-
ports. there were taken from Canton in 164 British vessels,
83,679 tons, to the amount of 17,925,360 dollars (of which
commodities, upwards of fifteen millions worth came into ports
in the United Kingdom). In speaking upon the healthy state
of the trade, Mr. Macgregor says, " If anything is wanting to
secure the permanency of the advantages to be derived from our
snonnexion with China, I conceive it would be the legalization
of the trade in opium, by allowing importation at a moderate
duty."
EVARTURE OF THE ROYAL SQUADRON.—The
Duke of Devonshire, we understand, has hired for the present week

great exertions to have them in full sailing order for this occasion.
