Carlisle and Newcastle Railway, in length about 60 miles, which is partially completed, 17 miles having been opened to the public in 1834. Before it enters the valley of the Tyne, it encounters some difficult country the remainder ol the line has no heavy works.

Forty-nine miles will be opened, it is said, in May next, twenty-two of which only will have double lines of rail. The cost of the entire railway, and its esta FUNERAL OF THE LAT.E COL. OLLNKY. On Saturday last, the funeral procession of this lamented gentleman moved from Cheltenham to the Cathedral, Gloucester, where his remains wore deposited, agreably to his own request. Notwithstanding the boisterous state of the weather, there was a very large assemblage of tho carriages of noblemen and gentlemen.

The cortege moved about twelve clock rmm r.mk,n,i inn ths Into residence ot the de So much of the public at cntion is now directed to the subject of Railways, while proposals for their construction arc springing up and demanding contributions on every hand, that we are induced to present lo the readers of the Athenicum an Outline Nun of England, obligingly drawn for us by Mr. Arrowsnnth, in which the principal railroads are laid down, and lo oiler some account of what has been done, and is now doing, in tins, the newest great branch ol national enterprise. The general convenience and usefulness of iron roads as the means of communication, may be considered as pretty well ascertained. How far tho cost of their formation will, in every instance, be repaid to the proprietors, is another question and one that, we imagine, has not been sufficiently examined by the projectors of many of the schemes now brought forward. Witli this questi-, however, we have little to do our business is with the public consequences of those undertakings the shareholders must look to themselves and as we are not called upon to decide how many of the schemes appealing for support will enrich, and how many will impoverish their supporters, our present purpose is chiefly to enumerate the principal railways in three classes, viz.

Those completed, and iu operation Those not yet completed, but in progress of formation Those existing only in prospectuses and engineers' surveys. Of all these classes, but especially of the latter, (many in which, we prophesy, will hardly survive the present winter,) we do not profess to furnish a complete detail. In South Wales, and the mining districts of Durham and Northumberland, as well as elsewhere, there aro numbers of minor communications by railway, which do not seem to require separate notice. Those only which appear to deserve public attention will be mentioned. The earliest considerable project of this kind, established with a view to general traffic, was The Stockton and Darlington Railway, begun in 1822, and opened in September 1025.

It is said to have cost, including the variousbranches to Ynrm and beyond Stockton, about the length of way travel leu by locomotive engines is anoutt miles, hut there are, including five or six miles chiefly worked by fixed engines, on the whole, about 37 miles of railway laid down. Tho levels are very irregular, descending, however, in the direction followed by the hulk of the traffic. The chief purpose of this line was the conveyance of the coal, raised near Darlington, to Stockton, the shipping port but the number of passengers ob tained, even during the tune when horse power alone was employed, soon became important, and is said to have now iucreased thirty fold since the opening of the communication. Previously to this there was hardly travelling enough to support one coach three times a week there now pass from 150 to 200 persons daily along the railway. 'The quantity of coals carried daily is stated to average more than 1,500 tons.

Two-thirds of these come to London. Besides this, limestone and other articles are also conveyed. Considerable sums have been lately expended in improving the lino the concern, however, is understood to be prosperous, returning about seven per cent. it is an object of public interest, as havinir un doubtedly furnished by its example and experience, a main inducement and guidance to the establishment of the Liverpool nnd Manchester Railway. This, the most important undertaking of the kind hitherto constructed, was begun in 1820, and opened in September 1830.

The cost, including the expenses of a carrying establishment, stations, is said to havo exceeded 1,200,000. The distance, about 30 miles, is performed in lh. 25in. to Hi. 40., including a stoppage for a few minutes at the half-way station at Newton.

It was on this line that the employment of locomotive engines, at high velocities, was first introduced and in this and other costly experiments, an immense expense, from which subsequent undertakings will be exempt, was necessarily incurred. The accommoda tion it lias afforded to Liverpool and Manchester can hardly be over-rated as an evidence of this, it will be sufficient to state the fact, that the number of passengers between these towns was trebled in the firsl year after it was opened, and has since gone on in- creasing. There were conveyed in 1832 356,045 1833 38C.482 1834 437,802 In spito of tho enormous cost of its formation, and its Heavy current expenditure, tho enterprise has been a prosperous one, returning to the proprietors abou: on a 100. share annuallv. It must, however bo observed, that it possesses peculiar local advantages in the active intercourse long e.xisling between the towns at its extremities, and as a link of communication between Ireland, Liverpool, and the dense manufacturing population of East Lancashire and Yorkshire It is also fed by various tributary branches the Kenton and Leigh, and Bolton and Leieh Railways, connecting it by a line of about 12 miles, with Bolton.

'The collective cost of these branches was about 150,000. they are not supposed to have been very prosperous, having to contend with the opposition of a luiig-usiaoiisneu canal, tlie conveyance ot goods, while the number of passengers is not considerable. Two other branch lines fallinsr into the Livnmnnl and Manchester Railway, one from Wigan, tho other from Warrington, having been recently incorporated with other more considerable branches now in nro- gress of formation, will bo mentioned in another place, I he traffic in manufactured goods, coals, timber. and foreign imports, on the Liverpool and Manchester lino, is extensive and nrofitable. Tho trains with mer chandize are conveyed from Liverpool to Manchester in about two hours.

The average number of passengers at each trip is about 60 or 70 tho heavy trains carry from 80 to 120 tons of goods each. Proceeding southward, we find in Derbyshire the Cromford and High Peak Railway begun in 1825, open in 1829. '1 he object of this line was to connect the Cromford with the' Peak Forest canal, between which, owing to the difficulties ofthe country, a water communication appeared impracticable. Its length is about 33 miles, and it cost 180,000., presenting a succession of inclined planes and tunnels in its ascent to the high ridge near its northern extremity. Jt derives its chief support from the cunvevance of min ing produce, but is understood to have been hitherlo wholly unprosperous.

Another mining railway, known by the name of the Leicester and Swartningiwi, proceeds from the first-mentioned town to a point near Ashby-de-la-Zouch. It was established for the conveyance of coals, limestone, Sec. to the neighbourhood of Leicester, and is worked by locomotive engines, at the rate of about 9 miles an hour. The length is IB miles few passengers travel by it, and there are no separate trains for their conveyance at a swifter rate. The quantity of goods conveyed weekly may be about 2,500 tons on an average; the number of passengers about 400.

Jt has been in ojieration since 1831 it cost 135,000., and is said to be now making a profitable return. By aflordimr a chcan snnnlv nf nmnllnnt Miy ueignuoiirnou 01 Leicester, it has been of great public utility, and, it is said, that arrangements are in progress by which this traffic may be extended to London on terms of great advantage to the consumers in the metropolis. The Leeds and Sellni Railway was begun in February 1831, and opened for passengers in September, and fur merchandize in December, 1834, It has cost 360,000. The length is 20 miles. 'Che passenger trains perform the dislance.exclusiveofsloppages, in an hour.

On tho average there are carried, 3000 passengers daily 500 to 600 tons of goods, 700 tons of coals 250 tons of I ime. weekly. The dividend for the first half vonr is snid tn nearly reached the rate of five ner cent, ner while the business of the road is increasing. An extension from Selby to Hull has been contemplated this would increase both the prosperity and the usefulness of the Leeds line, and obviale the necessity of lighterage on the goods now ennvevnd hv wafer tn ri Iroin Selby. By this means a communication between the great manufactories of Yorkshire and the Baltic would he established on the most favourable terms, and the public- convenience greatly consulted.

Admiral ok the Red. We announce with regret the decease of this distinguished Officer, which took place at his seat in Ireland on Tuesday last. The deceased Admiral was son of Thomas Lord Longford by Lady Elizabeth, who was made a Countess after his death. He was certainly one ofthe most distinguished Officers of the British navy, a man remarkable for talent, uromot ilnoisinn. couraee, and judgment.

He first went to sea in 1770. A letter from Mauritius of the 21st of October states, that the system of free labour for tho cultivation of sugar estates had been introduced there with entire success.

Justice Pnltcson, who sat in Gray's Inn-hall on Friday morning, confirmed the judgment of the Vice-Chancel lor, thereby establishing that Unitarians are not eligible to receive any of the benefits contemplated by Lady Hewley's charity, which was intended for those only who fully believed in the doctrine ofthe Trinity. Itisnow ascertainedthat the explosion in Hetton colliery, by which 20.human beings were hurried into eternity, was occasioned by the negligence of a boy who had the care of a trap door, and whose duty it was to keep it shut as much as possible, and the neglect of the men in using the safety lamp. It is melancholy to think that the lives of our fellow men should be thus exposed to such chances. Love. Thomas Hutchins, a pot-boy at the Buf-faloe's Head, New Road, London, was discovered in the wafer in the Regent's Jark, breast deep, by a policeman, who was attracted to the spot by an exclamation of God forgive me for the sin I am about to commit." With small persuasion he got out and accompanied the policeman to the Marylebone infirmary, where he lies in a very weak state.

It appeared that he was over head and ears' in love with a girl who slighted his pretensions, and had gone up to his neck in the water to cool his fever.

THE LATE WILLIAM HUGHES, ESQ. Uied, at Northampton, on the 18th of January last Win. Hughes, Esq. civil engineer. Though his name was not oflen before the public, Mr.

Hughes had perhaps no equal in his profession, either scientifically or practically, He was of an ancient Welsh family, born at Peu-y-clawdd, in Monmouthshire, in 1779. When a mere boy, the late Mr. Ouncombe solicited to have him as a pupil and at that early age he was cnimcd in nlnninnr l-viMiin- it.A 0 5 me JMiesmere canal. When the Caledonian canal was to bo executed, the late Mr. Telford considered the presence of Mr.

Hughes indispensible, and accordingly he saw that great work beeun and conioleled mXn.n tions for executing all the more difficult parts of it-He executed many othei important works in the North ol Scotland, and gave an impulse to public improvement there. Subsequently, he was employed in deepening the Clyde, in the drainage of Lough Neaoh and in numerous other works and when death deprived his country of his valuable services he was engaged in executing a every extensive contract on the most difficult part ofthe London aDd Birminc-ham Railway. In fact, after the death nf ir, I and Mr. Mimmo, the latter of whom was an eleve of Mr. Hughes he was at the top of his profession as an engineer on the grand scale.

It may rurtherbesaid that Mr Hughes never lent himself to anything that even malice could consider a job-that, much as he did he never had a case referred to arbitration-and tl at from usnnnnrtnn i no i Moo-iiearieuncss and liberal, lad not been equal to his talents), his fortune might have been enormous.

If this array of military force be really designed to affect the action of the Government and people of the United States, on the questions now pending between the two nations, then indeed would it be dishonourable to pause a moment on the alternative which such a state of affairs would present to us. Come what may, the explanation which France demands can never be accorded and no armament, however powerful and imposing at a distance, or on our coast, will, 1 trust, deter us from discharging the high duties we owe to. our constituents, to our national character, and to the world. The other passages of the message merely recapitulate tho negotiations with France pending this question, as before recited in the message on the opening of Congress. Music in Alt.

At the Mayor's Court, on the fair day of Clonmel, Mr. Williams was examined on behalf of one Farrcll, who was accused of breaking windows. Farrell's defence was a iciis-key "Mi- 1 was s0 drunk, your Worships, that I could not handle so heavy a stone as that." Mr. Hodges, an attorney, examined his witness to the following effect What are you, sir Why, in tlie matter of what I am perhaps it would be a difficult passage to perform. But if you ask me what is my profession, I can inform you that I am an aerial banker, otherwise a dealer in notes, otherwise a musician, ifit be more agreeable to you.

Do you perform on the violin Why no, your honour, I nm not quite au fait at that. It is rather soprano, for my faculties requiring a digital dexterity and manual volubility which I have not just the casement for. Why, youareamost accomplished sort ofagentleman Indeed, so they say. I am rather a favourite among amateurs, to whose concerts I am often invited. The vulgar, too, consider me an Orpheus, who bent the knotted oak." But you have not yet told us on what instrument you perform Avery classical one, Sir, called the "pipes," but commonly known by the name of bagpipes.

I am frequently engaged for soirees and free and easies. Well, Mr. Musician, do you know any thing about this affair that we are trying 1 Indeed, I do, and I'll tell you all about it. I was engaged for a soiree, at Phill Hogan's. Performing on my instrument, ad libitum, I heard it loud crash, which proceeded from glasses.

'oti know, Sir, that The jingle of glasses All music surpasses, as the old song has it. But that noise caused a great discord and every one stared I among the rest; in the doing of which my eyes came in contact with my friend Parrel, now in trouble but then in a state of liustelj intoxication, lie was so drunk your Worships, as to be incapable of breaking the the glasses, or any other thing which is frail and fracturable. This evidence was quite satisfactory, in the absence of something more positive, and Mr. Farrell, in regard for his having been bastely drunk, was dischaaged free and and guiltless of the crime laid to his charge. Cruelty to Animals.

We request the attention of masters andservants, in fact of all persons, to the following abstract of a most important Act of Parliament, which became a law at the close of the last session. We trust that the power therein given against the cruel wretch who wantonly abuses the brute creation, will not be suffered to steep the Legislature have done their duty it is now for the public to do theirs. 5 and 6 Will. IV. c.

59 9th 1835. An Act to consolidate and amend the several taws relating to the cruel and improper treatment of animals, and mischiefs arising jrom the driving of cattle, aad to make other provisions in regard thereto. lieciting that frequent accidents arise from improperly driving cattle, and many and great cruelties are practised by improper driving and conveying to, at, and from public markets and otherwise, as well as in slaughtering and keepingand detaining thesamc without food and nourishment, to the great needless increase of the sufferings of dumb animals, and to the demora lization ol the people, and whereby the lives and property of his Majesty's subjects are greatly endangered and injured enacts that any person wantonly and cruelly beating, or otherwise ill-treating any cattle, or improperly driving the same, whereby any mischief shall be done, shall, upon summary conviction, be fined not less than 5s. nor more that 40s. or in default of payment, be committed.

3. And as cruelties are greatly promoted by persons keeping houses, rooms, pits, grounds, or other places for the fighting or baiting of dogs, bulls, bears, or other animals, and for lighting cocks, and the same are great nuisances and annoyances to their neighbourhood, and tend to demoralize those who frequent such places; inflicts a penalty, for keeping such places, of not exceeding 5. nor less than 10s. per day; and the person who shall be the manager of such houi-e shall be deemed the keeper. 4.

And as great crueit es are practised by reason of keeping horses, asses, and other cattle, and animals impounded and confined without food frequently for many days; directs every person so impounding, to find food, and gives a summary remedy for the recovery thereof from the owners. 5. Any person may enter pounds fur the purpose of feeding cattle confined without food for 24 hours. 6. Penalty on parlies neglecting to feed impounded cattle, 5s.

There lias been a total change of Ministry, tlie entire of Ihe Doctrinaire cabinet having suddenly resigned, not one of whom it is said will enter into the new ministry.

Tlie demonstration of disaffection ofthe Chamber of Deputies afforded by the resolution to take the proposition of M. Gouin into consideration led to this determination. The Gazette de France expresses satisfaction at the downfall ofthe merciless system. In a nation so generous and intelligent as ours, it only required the Chamber to pronounce the amnesty and economy to upset an administration composed of men opposed to the reconciliation of all parties. One single vote of majority brought to the ground all that fabric of illusion and confusion, called the immutable system.

France will now breathe freely. The public enemies of all parties (the Doctrinaires) shall not again appear in our country, and the abyss they have opened is about to swallow them. We know not by what men they will be replaced, but no matter who succeed them, they will have a noble task to accomplish, if they merely confined themselves to repair the errors of the most violent party that ever was at the head of affairs since the convention. COURT OF PEERS, Saturday, Feb. 6.

(eighth day concluded.) Lieutenant-Colonel Ponclmrrat (of the Artillery) was examined touching the manner in which the barrels ofthe infernal machine were loaded, lie was of opinion that they had been charged by a nerson little acquainted with such a process, or with an intention that they should burst, for the balls were not rammed home to the powder, It will be recollected that Morey, whom Fieschi states loaded the principle part ot the bar rels, was an expert rifle-shooter, and of course conversant with the loading of fire-arms. This evidence would tend, therefore, to confirm tlie horrible surmise of Fieschi that his allodged ac complice intended his destruction as well as of his victims. Fieschi then again entered upon a detailed account of his feelings before firing the machine, towards the close of which he became in some degree affected, repeating that he was a patriot-net an assassin that he was imbued with sentiments of gratitude, Mr. Lapage, the celebrated gunmaker, proved that the bullet-mould and ball found at the house of Morey did not correspond with the bag of bullets found at the Barribre de Montreuil which Nina Lasave said that the prisoner had there deposited. This point in favour of Morey, Fieschi would not suffer to stand, for he immediately said that the balls found at the Barrifere had been cast from the mould lent to Morey by Swartz, the porter, examined on Thursday.

The smith from whom the bar of iron was bought (and the wife, two journeymen, and an apprentice of that witness) were next examined. Mr. Levaillant (the Deputy) followed, and confirmed some of the statements of Fieschi respecting the dinner at Pepin's, but positively denied the metaphorical phrase attributed to him by the assassin Lasser bouuttr le mouton. Adjourned. COURT OF PEERS Sunday, Feb.

7. At half-past 12 o'clock the prisoners were brought in by their guards and placed in the usual order. Fieschi appeared as unconcerned as ever, and on entering tlie hall turned round and kissed hands to Nina Lasave, who, in replying to his civilities, blushed immoderately. The two other mistresses of Fiesehi were in the box of the witnesses, but he took no notice of them. At a quarter to one the Court was introduced, and the Recorder called over the names of the Peers.

Immediately afterwards, M. Ponchara, a Colonel of Artillery, and an armourer, were examined, who proved that the powder found in several gun barrels of theinfernal machine, was the same as that discovered in the possession of Morey, and that the balls extracted from Colonel Rieussec's body had been made with a mould belonging to the same prisoner. AMERICA PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE. NON-INTEUCOURSE WITH FRANCE AND HOSTILE PREPARATIONS. SPECIAL MESSAGE.

We hasten to lay before our readers the Special Message of the President to Congress. Its firm and dignified sentiments will be responded to and sapported by every American heart. Non-intercourse and immediate preparation for the worst, are the measures recommended to meet the unwarrantable demands of France. (To the Senateand House of Representatives.) Obliged by the precise language used by tlie French Minister to view it as a peremptory refusal to execute the treaty, except on terms incompatible with the honour and independence of the United States, and persuaded that, on considering the correspondence now submitted to you, you can regard it in no other lio-ht it becomes my duty to call your attention to such measures as the exigency of the ease demands, if the claim of interfering in the communications be tween the different branches of our Government shall be persisted in. This pretension is rendered the more unreasonable by the fact, that the substance of me lequued explanation has been repeatedly and voluntarily given before it was insisted on as a con dition a condition the more humiliating, because demanded as the equivalent of a pecuniary-consideration.

Does Franco desire only a declara tion mat we nad no intention to obtain our rights "al 'ears miner man to ner justice She has already had it, frankly and explicitly given by our Minister, accredited to her Government act ratified by me, and my confirmation of it officially communicated by him, in his letter to the French Minister for Foreign Affairs, of the25th of April, 1835, and repeated by my published approval of that letter after the passage ofthe Rilloflnd emnifinnfinn nnn. France want a desrradins-. servile, rprmihinn nC Act, in terms which she shall dictate, and which will involve an acknowledgment of her assumed ritrht to interfere in our domestic concerns? She will never obtain it. The spirit of the American people, tho dignity ofthe Legislature, and thefi I'lll executive Government, forbid it. It is time, that this unequal nosition ofnft'nirs cease, and that legislative action should be brought to sustain executive exertion in such measures as th? iei uues.

The woman reflecting, us it were, the glory of the man, being funned his counterpart, nnd the most honourable subject ol'bis delegated authority, ougm to avow her willing subjection by wearing the veil. For the woman was not originally created separately, but taken out of the man; as part of him, yet inferior to him neither was the man created for the woman's advantage but the woman forthat of the mini." On this account therefore, the woman ought to be covered witli her veil, even when praying or prophesying, as an emblem of her being the authority of the man. Many conjectures have been formed concerning the moaning of the following expression, because of the angels" but, probably, the apostles referred to the presence of holy angels, who hud witnessed the creation of man us spectators, or were even in some respects joint worshippers witli believers, in their publick assemblies which therefore ought to be regulated with the most exact propriety, that these heavenly worshippers might not witness any thing unbecoming so holy an occasion. Scott. "The margin roads, "That is, covering, in sign that she is umlcr the power of her husband." A Scene is the Alps.

Trag (tho guide) had disputed tho propriety of the path we pursued, nnd descended more abruptly towards the lake to reconnoitre, intending to proceed towards the rocks from the bottom of the glacier. Cannot had no confidence in him and continued his march. Soon Trug's voice thundered up the glacier, announcing that it would be certain destruction to proceed by the coure which Gnriuot was taking for from where he was he could see immediately below ns fissure in the glacier half ti mile long, in width from one to five or six feet. This was concealed from ns like tt haw-haw, because the lower side had sunk below thupln.no of the upper. Garinot, however, persevered, after desiring us lo stand firmly where wo were.

Trag prayed, entreated, and cursed his obstinacy. At length the Syndic saw his danger, and gelling the lad to assist him attempted to turn the miilo and retrace his steps. In doing so the poor beast slipped from them, and rolled over and over down the glacier to our horror. It crossed the crevice at a spot where it was fortunately narrow, but continued its Irighllul descent towards the lake, imbedding and leaving our luggage as it rolled over. Garinot lost not a moment; but dashed downwards in a sitting posture, witli greater spued than the mule rolled, and shot safely across the fissure.

Trag also slid forward, perfectly understanding Guri-uot's action. They met below the mule, and when near the bottom succeeded in stopping it. Our situation during thissccne cannot be imagined. We stood perfectly still the lad had rushed down to aid the men with the mule and at length one lifting it by the bridle and the other by tho tail, me poor beast was poised and placed trembling upon his legs, and left there to allow it time to rest and recover itself. We looked into the horrible abyss of the crevice, unableto perceive its bottom, probably a hundred feet below us but the beautiful and brilliant display of every tint of hue from the most delicate azure near the surfaie, to the intense blue in the darkness of the depth, was most striking.

liluckuvutl'i as v. blishment, when complete, it is expected will beabout 540,000. The original estimate for a double line all the way, was 300,000, At the first glance it might appear that a line, with one of its iennim in a district thinly peopled, and not remarkable for manufacturing or commercial activity, could hardly bo successful we are, however, assured, that as far as the experiment has hitherto been tried, it has more lhan realized the expectations of the parties concerned. Coal, stone, and agricultural produce, are the chief articles conveyed. Under the head of Railways now in progress of construction, we find several schemes surpassing magnitude any that have hitherto been accomplished.

Our notice of these must be confined to the most important the review of which will most appropriately commence at the southern extremity of the great line, proceeding from the shores ofthe Channel to the north of Lancashire, with the Icmmm und Southampton Railway. 'I'll is lino proceeds from Southampton, passing near Winchester and Basingstoke, to the north of Guildford, by Wimbledon, to Vauxhall, London, a distance little short nf 75 miles for which the estimate was, as far as we remember, 1,000,000. From the excessive difficulties of the country, and the consequent heaviness of the works, we should be inclined to suppose it win pro bablv reimiie at least 2.000,000. for its completion it remains to be seen whether there is sufficient trade and Iravellini' between London and Southampton to make a iirnfiiabli! rutnrn on this large outley. The Act of Parliament was obtained in 1834 we have not heard lately what progress Mr.

Giles is making with the works. A project, under the name of the Great Western Railway, for connecting Loudon with Bath and Bristol, a distance, by the proposed line, of about 120 miles, with an estimate ol was nrstenier- tained two years ago. The eastern termination is on the Birmingham line, about four miles from the sta tion in London. The Act was obtained in the session of 1835, after a contest of almost unexampled severity and we perc ive that the works, some ot which are heavy, including a long tunnel, on an inclined plane at Box, are in progress. The next in succession, northward, is the London and Birmingham Railway, passing by the valley of the LSrent, Watlord, Lcrkhampstead, fenny Stratford, near Kortbamiilon.

Davcnlrv, Rugby, and Coventry, to Birmingham, a distance of 11 1 i miles. The estimate for this line, which, from the nature of the district traversed, must be expensive, is two millions and a half and the whole distance will, probably, be completed in the course of the year 1838. The works are proceeding with great act.vity, anil, at eacn enu ofthe lino, a certain number of miles will be opened tins year, as we learn, lhere will be several tunnel required to carry the line through the different ridges that cross its course one oi these, at vvatiorii, wn exceed a mile in length an objectionable, but, it ii said, inevitable, feature of this railway the chief de pendence of which must, of course, be on passenger Jiy this means, however, good levels have been secured, and the distance will easily Do periormeu in live noun and a hall. From Birmingham the line is continued northward by the Grand Junction Railway, proceeding from the London Jiailway by Wolverhampton, renKruige Stafford, to the west of Newcastle, and the Potteries through Cheshire, to Warrington at which point it takes up a branch railway already made, and pursues it to Newton, a point on the and man Chester Railway, eouidistant from these towns. The total length, including the Warrington and Newton line, is about 82 miles the estimate of its cost it will probably require, including the expenses of a carrying establishment, a million and a half.

The district traversed, presents, in general, fewer obstacles than are met with on the London line, and will require no tunnels there are, however, some works of great magnitude at different points, among which may be named the great viaduct across the valley of the Weaver, in Cheshire, consisting of twenty arches, of sixty feet span, and more than sixty feet above the level of the valley. The works are rapidly advancing, and the road, it is expected, will be opened, throughout its entire length, in the summer ot 183. About tour Hours win De occupied in traversing it. At Newton another branch line, formerly known as the Wigan Railway, has been incorporated with one at present in progress, which will complete the entire distance of 21 miles, from Newton to Preston, under the title of the North Umon Railway. Tho cost of this, including the improvements which must be made in the Wigan and Newton division, will not be much less than 500,000, the works have already made some progress, and will, it is expected, be com pleted in 1838.

'There are a few heavy excavations on the line, and a viaduct, now building across tho valley of the Ribble, at Penwortham, which will be a hand some but expensive work. A Priest's Seumon.

was addressed as follows by Mr. G. Thomas, one of his parishioners Reverend Sir, 1 am deputed by my neighbours lo congratulate you on tho happy event which has recently taken place in your fondly, namely, the mar riage of Mr. .1 oh 11 Glynne Mytton to the amiable and accomplished Miss Davies, a lady to whose worth the surroundingcountry has borne corroborative testimony happy are wc, and thrice happy is he that has made so judicious a choice. Nature, Sir, has bound all her children together with a lie more strong than iron, and more precious than gold, that tie is sympathy, which prompts man to shed a tear for the misfortunes of his fellow-creature, and to rejoice in his well-doing pitiable is the weakness of that being, be his situation in life what it may, who boastingly says ho cares for nobody." All here are Conservatives who fear God and honour the King, and all that are put in authority under him men who are willing to yield tribute where tribute is due men wanting no visionary or speculative changes, and men who knew, before the schoolmaster came abroad, that tithes cannot become the property ot the tenant.
