LYCEUM THEATRE.

A powerful, but somewhat coarse, drama, entitled
" The Drunkard's Glass," was produced at this theatre
Last evening, with complete success. It consists but of
one act, and the story is soon told. Tvto workmen,
Michael and David (Mr. Emery and Mr. Meadows),
are seduced by Hulks (Mr. I)iddear) into a course
of drunkenness. Their wives, in order to reclaim them,
forge a story that each has died in consequence of his
drunkennesi. The plot succeeds, and the drunkards
are reclaimed. Mr. Emery as the tragic drunkard was
very effective, and Mr. Meadows as the comic and hen-
pecked drunkard was very humorous ; and the piece
was decidedly successful. The piece was announced for
repetition amidst loud applause.

RAILWAYS.

Lord BROUGHANI presented a petition from a
nobleman in Ireland, which was prompted by e
tenant of his in consequence of the line entirely
destroying his farm. He also presented a petition from
the sister of a nobleman, who complained that the line of
the proposed railway would not only pass through the gar-
dens of the cottages in which she resided, but would also
cut off all the supplies of water from the whole of the
village. There were so many other instances of trespass
ing on private property, that he should feel it his duty,
to-morrow, to take the t,cnse of the House upon several
classes of the new Railway Bill, which in his opinion
went to systematise this encroachment on private pro-
perty.

On the motion of Lord WIJARNCLIFFE this Bill
was read a second time.

HER MAJESTY'S THEArRE.

There was another great musical performance at this
theatre last night, consisting of The Desert, preceded by a
Miscellaneous Selection. The concert commenced with
Beethoven's Symphony in C minor. It had evidently been
carefully rehearsed, and the large orchestra, under the away
of Senor Costa's baton, moved with a degree of unity and
smoothness that could not be surpassed. The sudden burst
into the grand triumphal march seemed to electrify the au-
' dience. Mademoiselle Brambilla sang Gluck's fine contralto
air, "Che farb senza Eurydice " with graceful simplicity.
Lablache gave great effect to "Non piu andrai," from the tire
with which he gave it. and the volume of his unequalled
voice. Madame Castellan, in the beautiful "Non mi dir ot
Mozart, exhibited the taste and style of a most accomplished
artist. 'Rossini's very pretty chorus, called "La Carita,
was well perform d. This is a recent composition ; one of
three, entitled "La &delta," "La Speranza," and "La
Carita."

The Desert went off well, and was received with much ap•
plause. Some of the movements were encored, particularly
the description of sunrise. The house was well filled.

LYCEUM THEATRE.

A powerful, but somewhat coarse, drama, entitled
"The Drunkard's Glass.," was produced at this theatre
last evening, with complete success. It consists but of
one act, and the story is soon told. Two workmen,
Michael and David (Mr. Emery and Mr. Meadows),
nre seduced by Hulks (Mr. Diddear) into a course
of drunkenness. Their wives, in order to reclaim them,
forge a story that each has died in consequence of his
drunkennes4. The plot succeeds, and the drunkards
are reclaimed. Mr. Emery as the tragic drunkard was
very effective, and Mr. Meadows as the comic and hen-
pecked drunkard was very humorous ; and the piece
was decidedly successful. The piece was anno►►nced fur

GREAT NOVELTY IN PERIODICAL LITERATURE.
On the Ist of May next,
THE- ILLUMINATED MAGAZINE
will be issued as a Bound Volume, without extra charge.
The issuing of a Magazine in bound volumes monthly will remove
the great objection to periodical publications when sent out in paper
covers. They are always unsightly, are frequently lost by being scat-
tered about, and give an appearance of carelessness and neglect to
the drawing-room or library table, where neatness and elegance
are,

'augment are so desirable.
The plan on which the New Series of the ILLUMINATED MAGA-
ZINE will be issued will obviate these objections; it will furnish
every month, to the book-case or library,

. . A HANDSOME BOUND VOLUME,
(Price One Shilling and Sixpence)
in small Svo., which will be enriched with the best Artistic and Li-
terary talent of the day.

Lord WHARNCLIFFE rose to call the attention of the

on Thursday last, respecting the progress that was making in
the erection of the new Houses of Parliament. His Noble and
Learned Friend, on Thursday last, made some very severe re-
marks on the architect of the new buildings. His Noble
Friend on that occasion said, " I don't regard the as_
surance of Mr. Barry as being so much worth as
the paper on which it is written." Now that was an

GROUP V.

The Committee met again this day at twelve o'clock, in room
No. 9—present the O'Conor Don, chairman ; Mr. J. Davies, Mr.
Hope Johnstone, Sir Denham Norreys, and Sir John 11 ae Reid.
The Committee proceeded with the adjourned case for the

IMPORTANT DECISION.
MANCHESTER, SHEFFIELD, AND MD.
LAND JUNCTION, AND THE ALTEENA-

TIVE LINE.

Mr. listNEs replied to the whole case on behalf of the promoters.
The Learned Counsel went through the evidence adduced on both
sides, with a clearness and precision which laid the merits of the
inquiry before the Committee, and concluded his arguments by
calling upon the Committee to come to a decision founded on the
character of the evidence.

The room was then cleared fur the Committee to deliberate en
the preamble of the Bill.
After a deliberation of one hour, the parties were called, and
The CHAIRMAN said—lt is with feelings of deep regret
that I have to announce the following decision of
the Committee. They hare come to the decision that the preamble
of the Bill from

NEWARK. TO SHETTICI
is not proved, and the preamble of the Bill from

CHESTERFIELD TO SHEFFIELD
is not proved.

This decision requires some little explanation ; the only Billcut
of the group was passed some days ago, namely,

THE NOTTINGHAM TO LINCOLN,
THROUGH NEWARIL
The moment the decision was given, the room emptied as if by
magic, and a rush for cabs to the Share Market followed.
The Committee then disiolred.
The Committee on this group has been sitting for five weeks,
and during this protracted period their patience and attention has
been most unremitting, and their urbanity and courtesy deserving
of great praise.

This line of railway will form the continuation of that from Paris,
Creil, and St. Quentin, to the Belgian frontier, and when c..mpleted
will join the Charleroi and Erquilinnes Railway.
In offering this undertaking to the public, it is important to re-
mark that the Belgian Government ceded to the above-mentioned
Directors, by Royal Ordinance of the 28th May last, the branch line
of railway above referred to, from Charleroi to Erquilinnes (the
French frontier), and consequently this line from St. Quentin to
Maubeuge will give a direct communicaton by railway from the
Seine to the Rhine—from Paris to Boulogne.
These facts are sufficient of themselves to establish the importance
of the St. Quentin and Maubeuge line, which has been careffilly sur-
veyed, and offering no engineering difficulty will be promptly exe-
cuted.
Prospectuses will be ready for distribution on Thursday, the 12th
instant ; meardime applications for Shares can be addressed to
Messrs. Charles Graham and Co., 20, King's Arms-yard, London;
Messrs. Hill, Fawcett, and Hill, 29, Threadneedle-street, London ;
Messrs. D. and T. B. Neilson, Liverpool.
FORM OF APPLICATION.
To the Directors.
Gentlemen,—l request you will insert my name for Shares of
201. each in the capital stock of the above-mentioned Company, and
I hereby undertake to accept that or any less number of
Shares that ma, be appropriated to me ; and I farther undertake to
pay the deposit and calls, when required, and to conform to the
statutes of the Company, and to all regulations duly authorised by the
laws of France, and to execute all deeds as and when called upon so

GROUP QQ.

ASHTON, STALEYERIDGE, AND LIVE--
POOL ZUNCTXON HAILIAATAY-(A.EXIIATXCH.
BRANCH).

This Committee met for the first time to-day, at one o'clock,
Mr. Round in the chair, when the Ashton, Staleybridge, and
Liverpool Junction ( Ardwick Branch), was entered into.
Mr. HMOS-ARO opened the case on behalf of the projectors of
this branch line, which is proposed to be taken from a point near
to the terminus of the Leeds and Manchester Railway in Man-
chester, to the terminus of the Manchester and Birmingham line
in Ardwick, one mile and a half in length, thus connecting together
the latter line and the Ashton and Staleybridge with all the other
lines at present radiating from Manchester. There were no en-
gineering difficulties, and the cost was estimated at 60,0001., on
which, the tables of trite proposed would show an ample return.
There was no opposition to the preamble of the Bill.

Mr. Silverwood, Mr. Opeushaw, engineer, and Mr. Carver, were
examined very briefly in support of the preamble, when the Com-
mittee decided that it was proved.

The clauses of the Bill were then taken into consideration, and
agreed to without any opposition, with the exception of one, which was
opposed by Mr. Maws, on the part of Mr. Bennett. This clause
is one sought to be introduced by the Corporation of Manchester,
giving them the right of making a street, eight yards wide, from
Chancery-lane to Princes-street, close to, and alongside of, the
railway, and upon the land of Mr. John Bennett. The objection to
the clause was, that it was an unjustifiable interference with the
right of private property, and would interfere with Mr. Bennett
using his property for the erection of mills and warehouses.
Evidence was called in support of the objection, when the
matter was compromised by substituting the word "road" for
" street," and reducing the width from eight to four yards.
The report was then agreed to, and the Committee adjourned.

CALEDONIAN RA ILWAY.
The Provisional Directors congratulate the Shareholders on
the decision pronounced by the Select Committee, to whom the Ca-
ledonian Railway Bill was referred by the House of Commons; and
beg to express their confidence, that the success of the measure in
the present session of Parliament is now seeured. The result of a long
and patient inquiry by the Committee is, that the Biil and compli-
cated schemes of the Glasgow, Dumfries, and Carlisle Company, have
been entirely rejected ; while the Caledonian system of Railway com-
munication between England and Scotland has been adopted in its
integrity by the passing of Bills for the Caledonian Clydesdale Junc-
tion and Scottish Central and Midland Lines. The omission for the
present session of the Dumfries Branch of the Caledonian Company,
was desirable when coupled with the rejection of the rival Line, and
was only intended by the Committee to afford to the Caledonian Com-
pany an opportunity of reconsidering the best connexion with the
town of Dumfries, irrespectively of the projects of other parties, an
opportunity of which the Directors will avail themselves without
loss of time. By order,
D. RANKINE, Secretary.

THIS ELEGANT VILLA

is placed on a lawn of great beauty, adorned by American plants,
flowering Shrubs, and many stately elms. There is a very prolific
kitchen garden, excluded from view by management and dexterity.
The views are many and varied—Caen Wood is in direct commu-
nication—Harrow Spire and Windsor Castle in the distance. The
Heath and its refreshing atmosphere close at hand, and although it
can at all times partake of the bustle of the passing scene, it has
a privacy that could not be exceeded one hundred miles from
London ; and yet at a distance of only four miles from town. In
respect of the Villa abode, it possesses all the accommodation a
family of pretension will aspire to. In the court-yard is every
essential for a large establishment—stabling for six or seven horses,
double coach.house, dairy, and piggery. The neighbourhood is
greatly favoured by the good feeling that exists everywhere.
Particulars at Jack Straw's Castle, on the Heath ; of Messrs.
Cameron and Booty, solicitors, Gray's Inn ; the Mart; and in
Covent-garden.
