a total of 2,000. The paragraph did not state what the reason
for the notice was, but suggested that it might be for the pur-
pose of creating larger farms.—(Hear, hear.) He hoped the
Right Hon. Baronet would bring the attention of the Lord
Advocate to the subject, in connexion with the proposed new
Poor-law for Scotland.—( Hear.)
Sir J. GRAHAM said he had read the niragraph, and he
hoped that it had no foundation.—( Hear, hear.) The Lord
Advocate had instituted an inquiry. But the Right Hon.
Gentleman must know, from his official experience, that he
( Sir J. Graham) had no power in the matter. But, he must
say, that he could not conceive any right that any landlord, or
any number of landlords, would have to cause so much misery
—(Cheers)—and, as far as admonition on the part of the Go-
vet nment could go, it should not be wanted.—( Cheers.)
Mr. F. MAULE was aware that the Right Hen. Gentleman
had no official authority, but he was sure that the declaration
of the Right Hon. Gentleman in the House of Commons
would check the disposition to effect such removals.
The remaining orders of the day having been disposed of, the
House adjourned at Twelve o'clock.

This dosed the evidence against the Bill.

NEWCASTLE AND BER WICK LINE.
(Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.)
Mr. Brown, a surgeon at Newcastle, was then examined as to the
value of land on the line. The valuation of land on the main line
from Newcastle to Berwick, including the value of lands and hokises,
and tenants' damages, was 87,2021. The Ainwirk branch was
valued at 5,6241., the Kelso branch, 36,5751., the Illrh branch,
5,200/., making a gross aggregate of 134,601/.
Cross examined by Mr. ALEXANDER—That valuation did not in.
elude any of the house value in Newcastle. The number of acres
that would be required for the main line would amount to 800,
779 acres for the line, and 21 for stations, which was valued at
87,2021.
Mr. Nicholson, on his examination, stated that he valued the
house property at Newcastle through which the projected line
would pass at 102,6371. 65., and believed it to be a very reasonable
valuation.
Cross-examined—The average width of the line through the
town was 32 feet. The number of houses to be destroyed or injured
by deterioration were 120 in Newcastle, and 12 in Gateshead.
He would not separate the value of deterioration from the value of
those houses that were destroyed.
Mr. Atts-rts said that, with reference to the traffic tables, he
supposed they might be put in when the Committee came to con.
sider the answer they would give to the resolutions.
Mr. ALEXANDER opposed this plan, and said that he wished to
understand the method on which the traffic tables on the other side
bad been prepared.
A discussiim then took place, and the Committee said it WAS their
desire to have the tables.

(YESTERDAY.)

GLASGOW AND EDINBURGH RAILWAY (BRANCH TO

ALLOA).
Group DD.
(Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday).
The examination of Mr. Miller was resumed by Sir T. Putattes—
The line would greatly facilitate the communication between Alloa
and Linlithgow, and thence eventually to Glasgow ; and would pass
through a more densely populated neighbourhood than the Scottish
Central, which did not possess any advantages to counterbalance
these. The distance by the proposed line from Alloa to Edin-
burgh was 37 miles, and to Glasgow 31 miles. The length of the
Stirling branch is 14 miles, and the branch extending ►o Altos is
421 miles.
The CHAIRMAN interrupted Sir Thomas Phillips in his examina-
tion, and stated that the Committee were anxious that the wit.
ness should proceecd to give evidence as to the engineering capa-
bilities of the proposed line.
Mr. Miller's examination was then resumed—The branch from
its junction with the Glasgow and Edinburgh Railway proceeded
under the Forth and Clyde Canal, and thence passed through the
valley of Canon, within a quarter of a mile of the iron works—
then avoiding a considerable ridge of country, it swept
round its base and reached Stirling by a curve. There were
no tunnels, and the gradients and radii were generally favourable.
The two severest gradients were 1 in 100 and 1 In 82. The
smallest radius of a curve on the main line was 60 chains, and,
generally speaking, there was no unusual engineering difficulty.
The cost of the construction of the works would amount to
211,0001. The working expenses had been contemplated
at 30 per cent., to be arranged in conjunction with the main line.
The mode of junction with the Edinburgh anl Glasgow Railway
is convenient, but the mode in which the two forks communicate
Is not satisfactory, as it delays the transmission of traffic coming
front Edinburgh, and is in other respects inconvenient.
This witness was subjected to a long cross.examination by Mr.
Holm on behalf of the Scottish Central Railway, but the main fea-

tures of the evidence remained unaltered.
Mr. Miller was a'so cross-examined in opposition, on the part
of Lord Dunmore, by Mr. WILDMAN, who stated that the pro-
posed line passed through more than two miles of his Lordship's
property. The evidence of the witness tended to prove that rather
less than a quarter of a mile of Lord Dunmore's estate was inter-
fered with, and the line did not pass within a mile of his mansion.
At the close of this witness's cross.examination Mr. Tasker
provel the assents and dissents for the Scottish Central Railway,
and Mr. Bligh proved the assents and dissents for the Edinburgh
and Glasgow branch lines.
Mr. AUSTIN then said that the case for the Edinburgh and Glas.
gow branches was closed.
Mr. COCKBURN, on behalf of the Scottish Central Railway, rose,
and said he should be able to prove to the satisfaction of the Corn.
mittee that the landholders in the district through which
the Scottish Central line will pass had same time since
made a proposition to the Edinburgh and Glasgow Com.
pany for a branch line to be made from their rail-
way to Stirling, but the Directors of the Edinburgh and
Glasgow Railway distinctly refused to have anything to do with
the formation of the proposed branch. And it was only until the
circulars for the construction of the Scottish Central Line had
been issued, that the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway advertisee
the formation of their branch. It was therefore clearly a matter of

rivalry on their part. He then proceeded to call his witnesses.
Mr. Galbraith proved that at a meeting of landowners, at which
Lord Dunmore and other influential residents were present, a pro-
position had been made by them to the Edinburgh and Glasgow
Company for a line to be made to Stirling, and that the answer
of the Directors was, that they would decline making the line,
and that no steps would hereafter be taken in making the line with.
sot previously consulting the resident landowners.
At the close of the examination of this witness a messenger
entered, and announced that the Speaker was at prayers.
'ihe Committee then adjourned till twelve o'clock on Monday.

LEEDS AND WEST RIDING JUNCTION LINE.
TRAFFIC EVIDENCE.
(Continued tlom our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.)

On cross examination, he said It Ird.class passengers had to
porter themselves. He did not know that their bills stated that a
pig and a third-class passenger were charged the same. He never
recollected having given instructions that the third-class carriage*
should be cleaned too often for fear they should become too corn.
Sortable. All that he knew as to the convenience of these car-
riages was, that 73 per cent. of their passengers went by these
third. class trains.l3Thit d-class trains ran through three times a_day.
Mr. Bright, M.P. for Durham, was well acquainted with the
arrangements upon the Leeds and Manchester line, and, in his
opinion, it had always given great accommodation to the public.
No line in England conveyed so large a number of the working
classes as the Leeds and Manchester; and he was inclined to
think the third-class carriages on the line were as commodious and
comfortable as could possibly be found on any other line. With
regard to goads, all that he knew was that the Company had a
character for getting businegs if business were to be had. In
Lancashire rites of carriage had invariably fallen on the introduc-
tion of railways.
On cross-examination he confessed that he had frequently
travelled by the third-class carriages, and found them in no way
objectionable.

Mr. Attam, an accountant at Manchester, had been employed
by the Leeds and West Riding Company to make traffic tables on
the route of their line. The total estimate of traffic be esrpected
to come on their lines was 88,7801.

On cross-examination he said he calculated the traffic in De.
cember last.

Mr. Houldsworth, the Chairman of the Leeds and Manchester
Railway, said that company was first contemplated in 1831, but it
was not until 1836-7 that the company was sanctioned by an Act of
Parliament. The capital in that Act was stated at 1,309,000/., but
they had to go to Parliament again to get it considerably incrcase.l.
One of the tunnels at Todmorden cost about two.thirds more than
the original estimate. The original estimate for tunnelling on the
line was 58,0001., but in the progress of the work it was found
necessary to increase it nearly 60 per cent. The witness, after
detailing the difficulties the Company had to contend with
in constructing their line, went on to state that the line
was opened in 1841, and the line, taking into ac
count all the debits and credits since the commencement
of the Company, had not paid Si. per cent. on the actual
expenditure. Lord Stanley was the Chairman of the Committee
that sat on the line, and that Noble Lord reported
to the House that the estimated traffic in passengers
on the whole line would be 116,000 at 2d. per mile,
and the assumed tonnage was 112,884 tons at an average charge of
Els. per ton. During the last year the line had carried four times
as many passengers, at an average cost of one penny four.tenths
per mile, being a saving to the public of 60000/. per annum
on the original estimate. The tonnage had increased in
proportion, and had been carried at one-half the original
estimate, being a saving to the public of from 175,0001. to
200,0001. per annum. They had been actutted by the principles
laid down by the Board of Trade, and their lines were eon-
structed not so much with a view to accommodate throne!)

traffic, but with a view of affording railway communica-
tion to imrortant local districts. The traffic of the dis-
trict both of the West Riding and of the Leeds and Manchester
was decidedly of a local, and not a through, character. For in-
stance, on the latter line each passenger averaged only fifteen
miles, but on the London and Birmingham line each passenger
averaged sixty.two miles. The Leeds and Blanchester Com.
parry was the first that had tried the experiment of pay-
ing a•tention and giving an importance to thirst.
class passengers. It was the interest of the Leeds
and Manchester Company to have all their engines of one
power, and the same locomotives could be made available without
the least difficulty on the West Riding lines. At present they

were 15-inch cylinder engines, but the result of their increasing
the power would depend upon future experience. Mr.
Hawksworth, the engineer, however, strongly recom.
mended them to adopt engines of I 8-inch cylinders.
To refute the objection urged against their third-class accornmoda.
tion, he could only state that, within the last two years, their first

class traffic had increased six per cent., their second class fifteen
per cent., and their third class 28 per cent. If Parliament
sanctioned the West Yorkshire lines, he should consider it an act

of cruelty to the Leeds and Manchester Company, seeing that Parlia-
ment had, years ago, advised them to make their line in a circuitous
route, and they only now sought for powers to shorten the distance
between Leeds and Manchester, and to accommodate traffic which
they had always looked upon, and which the majority of the in-
habitants in the West Riding admitted strictly belonged to them.
The witness underwent a lengthened cross.examination, but his
evidence remained unshaken. He, however, admitted that their
porters were positively forbidden to attend to third-class passengers.
Oa re-examination, he said the Leeds and Manchester Company
were 100,000/. in debt, and applying in the present session of Par.
liamerit for power to get rid of other liabilities.
This closed the case for the promoters of the Leeds and West
Riding Junction line.

TRENT VALLEY RAILWAY.

(Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.)
Mr. Williamson, a manufacturer in the Potteries, gave evidence
to the s tfect that the proposed line of railway would not give stiff'.
eicnt accommodation for such a populous district as the Potteries.
Mr. Samuel Alcoa, manufacturer, Plurslem, gave evidence to a
similar effect. Ile would have to go three quarters of a mile before
he could got to the proposed station at Longport. lie considered
that a line from the Potteries to Macclesfield, through Congleton,
would be much better than one to Bassforcl.
Mr. J. Mason, manufacturer at Fenton, was next examined.
His manufactory would be a mile and a half from the station at
Stoke, as proposed in the present scheme of railway. He thought
the proposed line would not give that accommodation which the
district required.
Mr. Ricardo, M.P., said that he was Chairman of the North
Staffordshire, Potteries, Churnet, and rant Valley Junction Rail-
way. The origin of his connexion with this Company was, Mr.
Copeland coming to him, and saying that the Potteries never
yet had got a hue for their accommodation, and wishing him (Mr.
Ricardo) to take some steps towards carrying out that object. He
consented to co.operate with that gentleman, and a committee of
gentlemen In the Potteries, for this purpose. This was In
February, to the best of his recollection. Overtures were in
consequence made to the Trent Valley Company, which
were favourably received. Arrangements were also made with
the Churnet Valley Company to abandon that portion of their
line from Uttoxeter and Tamworth, and to join with them in
carrying out a line from Macclesfield through the Potteries to
Colnwick. Terms were conic to with the Trent
Valley line before a conclusion was made with the

but it would be impossible not to do so, for the
Churnet Valley line had already taken steps to break up their old
company and to incorporate itself in the new one. He considered
this new line would be the best one to serve the Potteries, or he
would not have joined it.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE

The CiialkNtasr—ls it the intention of this new Company to
construct the line from Leek to Willingham ? Mr. Ricardo—Cer.
taiiily. The only part proposed to be given up of the original
Churnet Valley scheme is that from Uttoxeter to Tamworth,
The CIiAIRNIIN—WouId not the line fro:n the Potteries to
Bassford be of great service to the export trade of the district ?
Mr. Ricardo—Any line would be of advantage to a district that
has no line , but certainly one to Crewe, instead of Bassford, would
be infinitely better,
The CIiAIR,IAN—IS the whole of the capital subscribed? Mr.
Ricardo—Yes; and I have no doubt that whatever may be the
future state of the money market, this lino wtJ3 be tonsttuCted
or if and hoe can be made to pay, this cats.
