RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

TRENT VALLEY.—The works of the Trent Valley will be
commenced on Tuesday, the 11th instant, at Tamworth wi:h
the usual ceremonies. The " first sod" will be turned by the
Right Hon. Sir Robert Peel, Bart.
BODMIN AND WADEBRIDOE.—This line has just been pur-
chased by the Cornwall and Devon Central Company, and is
intended to form a branch from their trunk to Padstow, for
the purpose of opening a communication with Cork, and
bringing that city within twenty hours of London. The
purchase money is said to be 36,0001.
LONDON, DEVIZES, AND BRII:GEWATER DlRECT.—Yes-
terday the shares in this Company were allotted. The
committee state that the surveys have been undertaken by
Messrs. Sturge, and Mr. Marmont, of Bristol, under the di-
rection of the engineer, Mr. W. Gravatt, and are now in a
state of great forwardness.
CIIICIIESTER.—The line- from Chichester to Portsmouth
will be given into the contractor's hands in about ten days.
BRISTOL AND EXETER.—The London correspondent of
the Worcester Chronicle says, "I can state from good au-
thority, that Mr. Hudson has offered to lease the Bristol and
Exeter line, at eight per cent." If so, the matter will be
brought before the general meeting on Friday next.
LONDON AND NOTTINGHAM.—The shares in this company
were allotted yesterday. Mr. Charles Hutton Gregory, the
engineer, in a letter addressed to the committee, states that a
careful examination of the country between Bedford and
Nottingham has led to the adoption of a line affording fa-
vourable gradients. In the progress of the survey he has
received much assistance from the landed proprietors, and he
reports that he will be prepared in ample time for the Parlia-
mentary deposits.
Conic, BANDON, AND KINSALE.—A meeting of the inha-
bitants of Kinsale and its neighbourhood was held at the
Court-house, on Friday last, when petitions to the Legisla-
ture were adopted in favour of the Cork, Bandon, and Kinsale
Junction.

Souxii DEvox.—The directors of the South Devon have
called a general meeting of the shareholders, to consider and
determine on the expediency of contributing funds towards
the construction of an intended railway, from Exmouth
towards Exeter. to join the South Devon lb lway, at or
near the Countess Wear. bridge; to consider and determine
on the expediency of agreeing to such alterations and x-
tensions of the intended railway from Launceston to
Tavistock, as may be adopted by the Launceston ard South
Devon Company, in consequence of the projected formation of
the North Devon Railway, and of a branch in extension of the
Cornwall Railway to Launceston; and to consider and deter-
mine on the expediency of increasing the amount of subscrip-
tion to the Launceston and South Devon Railway. For these
purposes additional capital will be raised, the amount to be
borrowed by the Company on mortgage or bond, as autho-
rised by th; Act of incorporation.
GRAVESEND AND ROCHESTER.—EarIy on Monduy morn-
ing, notwithstanding the ground had been left in care of the
police, a party of labourers filled up the sawpit the Rev. Mr.
Formby had made, and the Company took possession of the
spot by placing a sentry-box and man there, since which
the chief contention has been a doorway in the wall bound-
ing Mr. Formby's premises, which the railway company
bricked up ; this work the rev. gentleman partly de-
molished, when the • other party replaced the brickwork,
and secured it by battening, and so it remains at present.
On Wednesday Mr. Hayward, on the part of Mr. Formby,
applied to the magistrates sitting at the Guildhall for sum-
monses against five of the railway labourers, on a charge of
having grubbed the roots of the sycamore trees which had
been previou.sly cut down, and they are accordingly sum-
moned to appear on Wednesday next. On Saturday Mr.
Hayward again appeared at the Guildhall, and made an
application to the magistrates for the police force, in order
to enable Mr. Formby to regain possession of the disputed
ground. To this request the magistrates refused to accede,
Captain Baker observing that it was a case which the ma-
gistrates ought not to be called upon to interfere in, Mr.
Formby having his remedy in an application to the Court
of Chancery for an injunction.. The mayor said lie bad
endeavoured to ascertain whether an amicable arrange-
ment might not be effected between the parties, but had
not succeeded, and he expressed his willingness again to
make the attempt. Mr. Hayward said his client had all
along been anxious to avail himself of the intercession of
other parties, in order that the matter might be amicably
arranged.
AMBER GATE, NOTTINGHAM AND BOSTON, AND EASTERN
JUNCTION.—This company have obtained the aid of the
Midland Company, and Mr. Hudson, M.P., the chairman,
and Mr. John Ellis, Esq., the vice-chairman, have been
added to the committee of direction, in addition to the alli-
ances with the Manchester, Buxton, Matlock, and Midland
Junction, and Lynn and Ely, and Lynn and Dereham. This
undertaking was commenced by the Nottingham and Grant;
ham Canal Companies, who have since formed an amalgama-
tion with the Nottingham, Erewash Valley, Amber Gate,
and Manchester,_ the Nottingham, Vale of Belvoir, and
Grantham and Nottingham, and Boston Companies, and will
now afford a direct line of communication from Livetpool
and Manchester in the west, to Boston, Spalding, Lynn,
Yarmouth, Norwich, &c., in the east. The amalgamated
company are to make the whole of the line from Amber Gate
to Boston and Spalding.

RZAPORE AND DELHI.—A line in respect of which only
a pr..iciaivasy re,uounctimcit, without detail, lids as vet ap-
. careit. 4,01.0,0007., in 80,000 shares of 50/. eacu.
iNfessrs. Rey, Blunt, and Co., are the solicitors.
NRWC.kBTLE- UPON - TYNE, EDINB URGII, AND (DIRECT)
GLAscow JuNcricm.—A line in conjunction with the Edin-
burgh and Hawick and Caledonian Railways. It runs from
Newca.tle, rid Coxlodge and Woodburn, across the border
and on to Hawick. The capital is 1.500,0001., in 201. shares.
Mesirs. J. and B. Green are the engineers.
BALLINAALGE AND KILKENN Y. —A correspondent of the
Irish Railway Gazette states that a company is about being
formed for the purpose of making a railway from Ballinasioe
to Kilkenny, running in nearly a straight line through Par-
sonstown, Shinroue, Roscrea, Norris-in-Ossory, Rathdowney,
Johnstown, Urlingford, Freshford, and forming a junction
between the port cf Waterford, by means of the Waterford
and Kilkenny Railway, and Galway and Sligo by the Great
Western Extensions. "A preliminary survey has been made,
by which it appears that the proposed railway will be twelve
miles shorter than the line already before the public, with
scarcely any cuttings, embankments, or difficulties of any
kind.

DARTMOUTH AND PLYMOUTH.—This line, it is said in
the preliminary announcement, "will commence at Dart-
mouth, and passing near or through Dittisham, Cornworthy,
Stockefleming, Blacksawtory, Stapton, Stokenham, Chilling-
ton, Frogmore, Charleton, Dodbrook, Kingbridge, Salcombe,
Aveton, Gifford, Modbury, Yalmpton, and Plvmpton, will
pr; reed to Piymouth." The capital is 500,0001., in 201.
si•ate,

IiD.MINGIIAM AND ABERYSWITII DIRECT. —This is a line
from the junction of the Welsh Midland and Stour Valley
Railways, aid Ludlow, to join various lines projected in
Wales. The capital is 1,250,0001., in 20/. shares. Lord
Danboyne heads the provisional committee. Engineer not
named.

ROCHDALE, lIEYWOOD, AND MANCHESTER.--A line on
the atmospheric primciple, the engineer being Mr. Joseph
Samuda. The capital is 200,0001., in 20/. shares.

CONTINENTAL LINES.

ORLHANS AND BORDEAUX.—On Thursday last the whole
of the distance between Oilcans and Tours, being 114 kilo-
metres, or 72 English mi:es, was run through by Messrs.
Mackenzie and Brassey, and a party of guests whim they
lid invited to be In esst.t on this interestiug occasion. About
fifty assembled on Wstinemday evening at a, vee' at the Or-
testis terminus at Paris, and were conveyed in ihree hours to
Orl- tips, where comfortable accommodation was provided for
them to pass the night at the Hotel d'Orleass. The next
morning after breakfast the guests set out at eight o'clock on
the experimental trip in eight carriages. Amongst the per-
sons present were the Duke de Mouchy, the President of the
Board of Directors ; Baron de Richemond, Viscount de
Cussy, General Scheider, Messrs. Allcard and Buddi-
comb, M. Thoyat, engineer of the Pouts et Chaussees ;
M. Jules Janin, Sec., besides a number of lathes. The
whole distance to Tours was passed over in three hours and
thirty-eight minutes. On the arrival of the train in the
latter own, M. NValvem, the mayor, Ise., in attendance
to receive the travellers, and invited them to a splendid
dejeuner at the Hotel du Kasen. Mr Mackenzie occu-
pied the chair of honour, and was supported by the Duke de
Mouchy on the right, and General Schieder on the left. After
the repast, the former proposed Mr. Mackenzie's health in
very eulogistic terms, to which a suitable reply was given by
that gentleman. At half-past two the train started from
Tours on its return, and arrived at Orleans in three hours and
ten minutes. -At six o'clock the guests left Orleans for Paris,
where they arrived at nine o'clock, delighted with their day's
excursion. The works of art are stated by the gentlemen
capable of judging of such matters, who went in the experi-
mental train, as admirably executed. Of the stock fur the
traction, six locomotives are already in readiness ; others will
be speedily delivered, and the remaining seven in the month
of May. The whole of the permanent way is already dawn
singly, and the other one will be very shortly completed.
The line could be opened to the public in the course of three
weeks, but the directors intend deferring the formal open-
ing until January 1, 1846.
NEAPOLITAN LINES.—The company for these lines have
just received the ratification of the concession, granted by
the Government of the Two Cicilies. Not being able to im-
mediately undertake all the lines at the same time, it has
determined to commence by the most productive one, that
from Naples to the frontier of the States of the Church by
Capua.
Swiss LINE, CHUE, Ocr: 24.--The Provisional Committee
consists of the following noblemen and gentlemen : Marquis
Giustiniani. the chairman; L. B. Migoni, Rocca, and Sons;
Bart. Barodi (these parties are from Genoa), Count Seyssel
d'Ai x. Nigra and Sons, Barbaroux and Company (from Turin) ;
Herr Von Rotta Vezoli from Milan, and Herr Cities from
Chur. These gentlemen, who are of the most wealthy in the
country, several of them having fortunes of nine millions or
more, have already subscribed a sum of 16,4000 francs for
preparatory operations. In a pecuniary view, the under-
taking offers to the public a full guarantee of its stability,
t hough the carrying of it out may be somewhat more difficult.
Several engineers of talent and character have asserted that
the restoration of the road though the pass of the Luknian,
which is the lowest of all the passes in Tessin, Bundten, or
Tyrol, and is i nly 5,650 feet above the level of the sea, would
be lees difficult than even that across Mot Cenis, through
which the railway from Piedmont to Lyons is to pass. From
time immemorial roads have been in use across the Lukman
into Italy. It is said to have received its name, Mons Lucu-
manius, from the Lucumonians, the ancient inhabitants,
who are said to have there held their religious feasts in
honour of the sun. In 1374 John, third Abbot of Dissentis,
founded a hospitiom in honour of the Virgin Mary at the
top of the pass, 5,654 feet above the level of the sea; and
four or five miles to the north lies the Hospitium of St.
Gallus. The following seems to be the direction of the line
ss at present determined upon :—From Rorschach by
Rheineck, Allstaedten, and Ragaz to Chur. To Chur, and
further on to Richeneau, there are no difficulties of impor-
tance. The construction of the line from Richeneau through
the Upper Valley of the Rhine, or through the Bundner
Oberland to the toot of the pass, will be mire difficult. The
pass ascends from Richeneau, E.N.E. to W. S.W., about 3,400
feet. The direction of the valley or pass is mostly straight,
without any important curves. Prom Richeneau to Truns the
valley is very narrow and rocky. At Ilauz, the first little
town on the Rhine, it becomes wider. From Truns the
country becomes more open, and the valley wider, until the
line arrives at the beautiful plain of Dissentis. From Dis-
sentis the line runs in a south-west direction for about thirty
miles to the Hospitium St. Maria, on Mout Luknian. Where
the line is to proceed from here and to reach the valley of the
• Blegno is not yet known. From Olne, through the valleys
of the.Blegno and Livin, there seem to be few engineering
difficulties.. The works could commence with tlt' next
spring, and the first rails could be laid down at the same
time from Rorschach to Chur, and from Locurne to-Olne. In
ten years this gigantic work might be completed, and the
railway comminiication between the Bodensee to Turin and
Genoa be complete also.

COLLISION ON THE MIDLANDS RAILWAY.—Another
collision took place early on Friday morning last, close to
the Methley junction, just below Normanton station, which,
had it been a passenger train instead of a goods train, might
have been attended with the most fearful consequences.
From the particulars which we have been enabled to collect
from the guard, and from other sources, it appears that a spe-
cial waggon train was coming from the direction of York, and
thafanother luggage,train was coming in a contrary direction.
The collision took place between four and five o'clock in the
morning, which was extremely foggy, at the time. At this
period a Midland passenger train was also due; and the man
at the Methley junction, where the Midland branches off to
York, and whose duty it is to attend to the points, thinking
that it was a passenger train coming, turned the points in
the wrong direction, by which.means he placed the luggage
train on the wrong line, and a most fearful collision took
place between the two luggage trains, three of the carriages
being entirely smashed to pieces. We are happy to state
th:a no other damage was done, nor was any person injured.
The line was speedily cleared of the obstruction, signals
having been sent to Woodlesford and Normanton stations

to stop any train from advancing until the line was per-
fectly clear.
MAIL COACH ACCIDENT.—On Monday last a
rather curious accident befel the Gloucester down mail when
about midway between this town and Neath. It appears
that the fore carriage axle suddenly giving way, the wheel
became disengaged from the coach, and rolled off with a por-
tion of the axle in the box. The suddenm ss of the jerk
thus created threw Mr. Williams, the driver, into the road
without affording him much time for consideration. The
guard likewise became disengaged from the vehicle, while
the horsesopade off at a galloping pace. "The coach con-
tinued running on three wheels for upwards of half a mile,
when one of the horses pulling rather stronger than the
others, caused both coach and horses to fall into a ditch on
the road side. The animals now commenced kicking vio-
lently until they disengaged themselves from the coach, the
front part of which they had completely battered in. Pre-
viously to this the passengers, with a single exception,
4imped off the coach one by one, all sustaining more or less
injury, but none to any great extent. The passenger most
seriously hurtwas J. Alines, Esq., of Dolcothy, who had his
shoulder dislocated, in leaping from the inside. The person
who stuck to the coach was the only individual who came off
unscathed.—Cambrian.

DREADFUL EXPLOSION IN HURST-STREET, BIRMING-
DA3L—On Friday morning, about half-past ten o'clock, the
inhabitants of Hurst-street, and the surrounding neighbour-
hood, were alarmed by a lerrific explosion proceeding from the
house of Mr. Adamson, tailor, Hurst-street. It appears that Mr.
Adamson, in addition to carrying on his own regular business,
has for some time been in the habit of. manufacturing fire-
works for the purpose of supplying dealers, and one of the
attics of the house in which he resided was fitted up for the
carrying on of this branch of his occupation. At the time
above stated, Mr. Adamson and his son (a young man about
twenty-five years of age) were engaged in the manufacture
ofsome fireworks, and while the son was mixing together
some chemical preparation, it became ignited, and the
flames at once communicated with a quantity of fireworks,
whiph caused a terrific explosion, blowing out the two windows
of the attics, and a mass of brickwork, above a yard in width,
which at once fell into the street. The window of the front
room, situate on the first floor, was aLso blown out, as was
till window-frame of the room on the ground floor. We re-
gret to say that the son of Mr. Adamson was very severely
injured, and was at once conveyed to the Queen's Hospital,
where he now lies in a precarious state. Mr. Adamson,
senior, was also much burnt about the arms and face in en-
deavouring to smother the fire in the first instance. The
roof and front of the house were so shaken by the explosion,
that it was deemed requisite to prop both up.—Birmingham
Journal.

PRICES or Fisn IN LONDON AND YARMOUTH,--A.
fishmonger in this town went down to the beach on Tuesday,
to procure if possible a turbot or two. The fish agent stated
that he had orders to forward all to London, without selling
any in Yarmouth, but as he wished to oblige the fishmonger,
he might have two for 245. This was thought much too
high a price, and they were eccordi..:l. forwarded to London,
and sold on Wedzfestiayflir 508.-8 ii Chronkk.

Sir,—For the last three or four years I have been labouring undet
a nervous deafness, so much so at times as to be almost incapable;
hearing. After trying several very eminent aurists, from whom Idr
rived scarcely any relief, I was induced at the solicitation of a friee
to try your excellent Eye Snuff. I accordingly procured one of your
is. 4d. canisters, after taking which I found considerable benefits.
much so that I sent for two more, which, having used, I found W.:l
hearing completely restored, and I have not been deaf since. I shod'
mention that the time I commenced taking your Eye Snuff weeilj
