RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

We have much pleasure in laying Lefore
the public prospectus Of a new IA lroad
scheme, which bids far to open out quite n
new ora in railroad annals. The IN eli
gence has reached us fiom correspondent
"who begs leave to trouble us with Iine,"
the merits Of which Will be best understood
by the folIowing-
Prospectus Of the grand daiipodenH and
Mcmisphcricni junction raiiray, bctrech hLm
gos and SydnTy.-The prcj 'ctors of this
railway have determined on carrying ont
the recommendation OF the Board of Trade
IN favor of the most direct lines, and on
taking terrestrial globe-such as those
used at schools-it will he found that an
iron rod stuck into il at Glasgow and driven
completely through, Will come out at sgd

direct road TO the antipodoS would be a
straight tunnel carried through the center

to the London market.
The benefit to shc po,terics can only be
conceived 10y those who well know the value
of clay brought up in its pure state Eom the
centre Of the earth. while the chance OF all
the precious metals which may be GENE upon

proposed to carry line at present. There
will consequently be succession OF down
trains only, in he first instance, but the up
trains will be put on soon as magnetic APP

Provisional Committee, has been completely

1t will be seen that on steam being neces-
sary, no explosion need be apprcheuded,
and there being neither smoke nor hot water
the latter beng often productive of bub-

lecs cannot in this instance be looked for.

is simply this:-A platinum cruible is made
