THE CHESTER 2

AND HOLYHEAD RAILWAY.

We lately noticed some-of the proceedingi of the Ches-
ter and Holyhead Railway Company, in reference, espe-
cially to their attempt to obtain powers to construct an
inner pier, or harbour, for their own exclusive use, (at a

following clause, which in our opinion detracts most tri-
flingly from the obnoxious character of the former

inner pier and inner harbour, by or on behalf of the said
Company, shall be limited and restricted to the• purposes
connected with the said Railway and the transit of pas-
sengers, goods, cattle, and merchandize travelling or
carried upon the said Railway, and using the• works con-
nected therewith, and subject to such limited and re-
stricted use, the said inner pier, inner harbour and works
shall be and remain the absolute property of her Majesty,

It merely means that the said harbour shall, as stated, be
" limited and restricted to the purposes connected with
the said railway," and that the harbour and works shall
be, and remain to be, the property of the Crown. This
is a mere fetch, or cajolence. Her Majesty's ships have
free entrance to any port in the kingdom ; few of them
ever go to Holyhead ; and this new clause gives no further
security to the public than the former act. The truth is,

We must have no such Harbours of Refuge as these.

PHILHARMONIC SOCIETY'S CONCERT.—Last evening,
we were treated with selections from the Oratorio of "'St.
Paul ;" and we have rarely heard a finer performance.
The principal singers were Miss Stott and Miss Parsons,
the former of whom acquitted herself with great ability.

NEW ROMAN CATHOLIC CHAPEL AT THURNHAM,

Miss Dalton, of Thurnham Hall, towards its erection.
EXPORTATION OF GRAIN AND POTATOES TO IRELAND,
FROM PRESTON.—In ordinary years, very considerable
quantities of wheat and all descriptions of grain are im-
ported into Preston from Ireland ; indeed this trade em-
ploys the greater part of the shipping business in connec-
tion with the Ribble up to Preston. Since the prevailing
scarcity in Ireland, however, several of the vessels have
had to leave that country without cargoes, and for some
time back a considerable export trade of these articles
from Preston has been carried on. During the present
week, considerable quantities of grain of all sorts, includ-
ing wheat, oats, barley flour, American barrel flour, be-
sides heavy freights of seed potatoes, have gone to the
sister country.

A fatal accident occurred at Manchester on Monday
morning, by the fall of a portion of Messrs. Grey's cotton-
Jnill, Pollard-street. It consisted of a boiler-house, 40
feet by 32, on the ground-floor, and above it a room filled
with jack-frames, the whole being surmounted by a water-
cistern. The accident occurred about ten in the morning,
when about a dozen men were at work in the upper storey.
One half of the floor, with its machinery, and the corres-
ponding half of the cistern, were at once, and without the
slightest warning, precipitated into the boiler-house.
Three young men were afterwards taken out of the ruins,
from amongst the broken machinery; two of whom, being
found to be alive, were taken to the infirmary. The third
was dead. There was about £6OO worth of machinery in
the room, which is destroyed ; and altogether Messrs.
Gray will be losers to the amount of about £lOOO by the
accident.

DUBLIN CORN MARKET. MARCH 19

Our Grain market has become suddenly depressed, with
small supplies, yet very little doing; those engaged in the trade
both mere and in Liverpool being aware that large supplies of
bread stuffs—very large, indeed—are absolutely under way for
this country from America, and may be weekly, if not daily,
expected.
Were it not for the unexpected demand for Wheat in the
French market, which has latterly become higher than our
own, we would have a decided reduction before now; as it is,
Wheat is more difficult to sell, while Oats and Barley are de-
cidedly lower. It cannot lie denied but that our merchants
hold very large stocks of Flour, Indian Corn, and even Oat-
meal, all of which must soon come to market at lower prices.
Among the various bread stuffs expected from America, that
of Indian Corn, Oatmeal, and Pease, we believe, is peculiarly
adapted to Ireland, and for which, it appears, we have no com-
petitors. This being the case, there cannot be a doubt of a
prospect of plenty, when we contrast the consumption of this
country with the large quantities of food in course of shipment
from America.

An outpost of A
prised and captured in advance of Saltillo, and an offic
of the regular army (Lieut. Ritchie) with an escort of ten
dragoons, bearing despatches from Gen. Scott at Brazos
Santiago, to Gen. Taylor, at Monterey, had been cut off.

By arrivals at New'Orfeans, we have Tampico dates to
the Bth instant, Brazos to the 6th instant, Matamoras to

the city of Mexico to the 29th ult.

A detachment, composed of eighty Kentucky and Ar-
kansas cavalry, was cut off when thirty miles beyond Sal-
tillo, by General Minor:. They formed an outpost, and
were surprised and taken prisoners without resistance.
Major Borland, C. M. Clay, and Major Gaines were
captured. .

A transport, also, with a regiment of Mississippi volun-
teers, under command of Col. De Rutsey, was wrecked
off the coast of Mexico, near Tampico. The survivors of
the regiment—the greater part, as is hoped—on reaching
the land, were soon attacked by a superior Mexican force;
and at the last accounts the result of the contest was
unknown. On hearing the particulars of the shipwreck,
Gen. Patter ling Tampico, despatched a

atterson, co mmanc- at
brigade to extricate this regiment.
In the interior, a portion of Gen. Kearney's command,
probably the regiment of Missouri volunteers, had seized
the Passo del Norte after a severe conflict—this opens to

the city of Chihuahua.
The dates from Vera Cruz are to the 2nd inst., when all
efforts were making to be in condition to resist the ap-
prehended attack. From San Luis de Potosi, the dates
are to the 25th inst., when Santa Anna was still there, and

Savings' Bank in the evening.
The Great Western Railway has made a very good re-
gulation in respect to passengers' luggage. In addition
to the label showing the destination of the luggage, a ticket

with the initial letter of the passenger's name is also
pasted on it, and the luggage is sorted alphabetically, so

Lnat wnen a passenger goes to Paddington, supposing his
name is Brown, he has only to go to a bin marked B, and
find his luggage at once.

BANNING 17. WALTON

An action brought by Joseph Banning against William
Walton for goods sold and delivered. Verdict for plaintiff
for £l4O.

APPLETON V. JONES

This was an action for slander, brought by John Gaskell
Appleton against Jabez Jones.
Mr. WILKINS, who appeared for the defendant, with-
drew a plea of justification which was upon the record,
observing that his client knew as much about pleading as
he did about Arabic. He did not mean to attribute any-
thing improper to the plaintiff. The fact was, the two
gentlemen were partners—the partnership was dissolved—
the safety valve was taken out at parting—an explosion
took place • and now he hoped nothing more would be
thought about it.

M. MARTIN said that the only object of his client was
to vindicate his character, and intimated his satisfaction
at the withdrawal of the plea. The case ended by the

through a slight fog, at about nine o'clock this morning.
Her paddle-wheels are in a most dilapidated state, the
whole of her outer rims and a majority of the floats being
carried away, she having got into a bed of floating ice, on
the evening of the 4th instant, to extricate her from which

about one-third of the starboard paddle-wheel is 'com-
pletely missing; there was not the slightest damage done
to her hull, though she was detained nearly twelve hours,

during which time, the exemplary conduci' and skill dis-
played by the commander and officers, is spoken of most
meritoriously. On the following day an immense number
of monstrous icebergs were seen. The weather throughout

CROSSKILL'S PATENT ROLLER.

THE blistered surface of the Soil, from the late
severe Frosts, now requires to be pressed firm and solid,
that the Young IVheats may be securely roofed therein, before
the blowing winds lay bare the Plants.

The SpeCial Gold Medal of the Royal Agricultural Society
was awarded to the serrated toothed Patent Roller for its sib
periority in producing this and other important effects. It far
excels Sheep-treading, being more equal, rapid,and effectual in
its application. By its timely use the quantity is increased,
and the qualify improved of Wheat, Barley, Oats, Clover, Tur-
nips, Potatoes, Beet; Grass, &c. It kills the Slug, and stops
the Wireworrn. The Farmers of Lincolnshire, to multiply the
power and lcsiwn the cost of production, have purchased up-
wards of 300 Patent Rollers.
