supply, and may have little to spare for some time
to come. The potatoe disease has ravaged many
districts whose population was equally dependant
with our own upon that root; and the deficiency,
which it has caused, must be made up by an ex-
tended cultivation of
.grain. This, even with a
more than usually abundant crop at home, will
tend in some measure to prevent any sudden de-
cline to arise from European competition.
To America, then, we must look as alone capable,
for a year or two, of exporting bread-stuffs in suffi-
cient quantities to produce any sensible effect upon

The most extraordinary proposition, which ever
came before Parliament and the public, is one
which has just been proposed by the Chester and
Holyhead Railway Company, in a Bill intituled
"A Bill to enable the Chester and Holyhead Rail-
way Company to make certain extensions of, and
alterations in, the Line of the Chester and Holy-
head Railway Company, and for other purposes."
The title, of itself, is a modest one. Like a lady's
postcript, however, or like certain noxious mem-
bers of the creation, the gist and the sting- of the
project is in its tail, comprised in the words which
we have quoted in Italics.
The preamble of the Bill recite

held out to its enterprising farmers, we may expect
to see a largely increased amount of capital and
labour devoted to the developing of the hitherto
neglected resources of the country. "When this is
effected, and the produce of that increased capital
and labour is fully directed towards Europe, its vast
extent will most fearfully disturb the dreams of our
politicians and of that portion of our native agri-
culturists who are at present hugging themselves
with the belief that free trade measures are not to
fall upon their condition with any serious weight.

It goes on to ask for powers to build steam-boats,
to navigate them, to charter or hire them, or to
contribute towards the expense of their building
or construction, by any company or companies,
demanding for these purposes the power to raise
additional capital.
So far the anguis in herba is not plainly percep-
tible. A railway company, or any other company,
contributing the funds required for its construction,
may legitimately ask from government the exclu-
sive use of any inner-pier or harbour which may
be in its possession, although it seems strange that
a public work, undertaken by the state, should be
thus bartered, to the damage of public interests.

however, the free use thereof.
" When it is understood, that this pier offers the only
available ground for trading purposes, or where a vessel
of any kind could lay alongside in safety ; and that the
inner harbour
.is the only available portion of the whole
where vessels would be safe while receiving passengers or
goods, it will be very difficult to distinguish this case from
that of an absolute monopolo of the harbour. So fully
do this company appear to think they may secure their
own terms, that this privilege of entering the inner har-
bour is given with this reservation ; namely, that " in

fifty per cent. at least. That increase can, in another
year, be doubled; and thus all the advantages of an
abundant harvest to the British farmer will be swept
away by its rush into the markets of this country.
It may be well also to glance at another difficulty
which is approaching our doors. What are our
prospects of a sufficient quantity of butcher's meat
during the next few years. The stock of pigs in
Ireland and Scotland is almost exhausted. In some
parts of both countries not a cotters' pig is to be
seen, having been hurried to market as pork, because
there was nothing left to feed them with. In Great
Britain itself there is a great decrease in the quan-
tity on hand from the same cause. Perhaps there
never was a time when the farmer throughout the
country had less young stock to consume their
coming hay crops, it having been found more profit-
able to sell off their calves than keep them through
an expensive winter. Here, also, America steps in.

his pork, his lard, his butter, and his cheese, is

So glaring an inroad as this upon the privileges
of the public certainly cannot escape the notice of
parliament,' or to meet with the sanction of any in-
fluential section- of the legislature. The whole

thing is monstrous ; and must be scouted so soon

We refer our readers to the report, as full a one
as we could give, of the two days' discussion be-
tween the Rev. Joseph Baylee, of Trinity Church,
Birkenhead, and Mr. Miall; editor of the Noncon-
formist journal, upon the subject of the grounds
by which the connexion of church and state is
defensible. It is. not necessary for us to give an
opinion upon the question at issue; and we leave
to the reflecting portion of the public to decide
which of the able controversialists has made out
the best case. Of that result we have no doubt.
Few impartial men can read the whole discussion
through without being- satisfied that Mr. Baylee
has thoroughly vindicated his position, and that
Mr. Miall has done little more than prove how easy
it is to rant in print, to hurl anathemas against an

upon our manufacturing interest. We, shall take

LIBERAL HONESTY,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL .ITANDARD•
Sin,---I cannot help calling your attention to the report
of the discussion on Friday evening, containe in the
" liberal journal" of Saturday. Throughout the whole
of Mr. Minll's address, in that paper, there appeared to
be a continual " applause," " great cheering," and "hear,
hear;" and if you will take the trouble of referring to the
report of Mr. Baylee's beautiful, manly, and unanswer•
able arguments, disposing of every point raised, and
crushing to pieces every assertion of the specious" and
" comprehensive" imagination of his opponent, from the
beginning to the end of that report, it would seem there
was not a silvle expression of feeling and approbation:
and I only appeal to every one that was present as to the
correctness- of the report in this particular. I care not
for assent or dissent in a matter of this kind, for truth and
religion will prevail, but I think it is the height of dis-
honesty that when a speech is reported, it is done par-
tially and unfaithfully.—l am, sir, tkc.,
ONE THAT WAS PRESENT.

The Countess of Ellesmere, Lady Mary Brackley, and
Lady Alice Egerton have arrived in Belgrave-square, from
Hatchford House, near Cobham. Lady Mary's accouche-
ment is daily expected to take place.
It was stated in Chester yesterday, that the Rev. Mr.
Wood, Rector of Middlewich, has been appointed Arch-
deacon of Chester, in the room of the late Yen. Unwiu
Clarke, of Eastham.

Cheltenham, says the Railway Chronicle, is the Phi-
lippi at which the North Western and Great Western
meet again to renew the contest of 1845, with this im-
portant difference—now, the Great Western have to de-
fend—the North Western to attack.

On Saturday, Miss Outeridge, who, as may be seen from
a paragraph elsewhere, has been charged at Bristol with
arson, was discharged from custody, the evidence not hav-
ing substantiated the charge. The decision gave great
satisfaction.

From experiments lately made at the Agricultural, In-
stitution of St Germain, it appears that a sheep which. in-
creased in weight a kilogramme and a half a month,- in-
creased double that amount in the same space of time
when three kilogrammes of salt. (about the tenth of an
ounce) were added each day to its food.—Galignani.
The annual address of the Royal, Caledonian Culling
Club, contains some curious remarks on the prospective
advantage of railways to curlers or skaters, and propose*
the appropriation for skating purposes of sheets of shal-
low water in juxta-position with the Caledonian Railway,
and other lines, for the use of the curlers in Edinburgh
and Glasgow ; the club itself numbers 7,000 players.
In the October of 1845, Sir Robert Peel cut the first
sod of the Trent Valley Railway, and it is positively fixed
that the line shall be opened on the Ist of May next.
The making of a railway 491 miles long within a year and
a half reflects great credit on the contractors, Messrs•
Brassey and Co. The coals and stone of the valley may
be carried to Liverpool, and thence exported to wherever
the sun shines.

One of the on dits of Chester is, that Minor Canon
Yarker, of St. Michael's Church, Chester, has been ap-
pointed Vicar of Neston, and that Canon Eaton, of St.
Mary's, Chester, fakes the living of Eastham. There will
thus be no vacancy in the list of Minor Canons. It is also
said that the Marquis of Westminster has appointed the
Rev. Mr. Longville, of Hoylake, to St. Mary's, vacant by
the preferment of Canon Eaton. The appointment of this
Rev. Gentleman will be hailed with satisfaction by the
inhabitants of Chester.

TAtt-Ti.:-3Wpatehes have been received by the French
government from Rear Admiral Bruat, dated Tahiti, No-
vember 12, stating that on October 30, November 7 and
12, engagements took place between the nativeinsurgents
and the native allies, the latter being supported by. the
troops established at the post of Pienavia. The skirmishes
were occasioned by the necessity in which were placed
both parties of the Indians of penetrating into-the valleys

ORIGINAL TRAFFIC ESTIMATES AND PRESENT TRAF-
FIC RETURNS.—The establishment of a railway in any
district creates a traffic which, under the old system of
communication, was never thought of. In all cases where

estimates have been taken of the traffic through ,a line of
country, double the gross amount arrived at is allowed on

all hands to be a reasonable calculation of expected
traffic on the new railway. If, however, promoters of
railways were to multiply the actual returns by five
or six, and put down the sum total thus arrived
at as their .expectation of traffic, they would, even

The present returns show an average of 45,000 passengers
per week, or nearly six times as many as the original
estimate. The same increase is observable on most of
the other lines of the country,.with the exception of the
Blackwall and the Eastern Counties. In the case of the
Blaekwall, the estimate was for 35,000 passengers,, and itt
that of the Eastern Counties 40,000 per week. The actual
returns now are about the same as the original estimates.

The I NSTRUCTOR has now been for two years before the pub-
lic, and the universal approbation with which it has been re-
ceived by the Press generally throughout England, Ireland,
and Scotland, forms the best criterion by which to judge of its
merits. It rests its claims to public support on grounds dif-
ferent from publications of a somewhat similar kind, in so far
as (white it shuns all sectarianism) a due regard is on all proper
occasions paid to the Christian faith. In carrying out these
peculiar principles, it has been described as " a perfect treasury
'of stories, miscellanea, and poetry"—" the best of its kind
published"—" the best general family magazine we know"—
a safe and instructive companion"—" has ,nothing to fear
from the face of a rival"—" none is more useful or more adorn-
ed With ability' and eminently moral"—" entitled to rank
amongst the first"—" certainly one of the cheapest publications
of the kind in Scotland ; the amount of information contained
in each threehalfpenny number is really extraordinary"—" the
press, without one single exception, is loud in its praise"—
' merits all the praise and patronage it has earned''—" a clever
publication, and withal one of- sound sense."

In order to render the INSTRUCTOR still more attractive,
there will in future be continued Monthly a series of beautiful
