or does not aspire to, it has been, and with reason, suspected that Cobbett so shrouded his incompetence. The late editor and proprietor of the Morning Herald, a warm admirer of Cobbett, so followed in his wake. We mean no disparagement to the great political Writer by the statement; it is not given to all men to he wise in all things. To come, however, to the facts of the case between the Writers of the Liberator" and ourselves. Such as they are, they lie in a small compass, and therefore shall deal as'briefly with them for those who do ns the honour of perusal must render us the justice of agreeing that our dealing is more with facts than arguments, however specious as sueh in the fast we are wholesale merchants, with the last mere retailers.

The argument, if argument there be, is that Great Britain is manacled by a set of gaolers called Fund- i she is castrated of her virility by these horse without their good-will and pleasure the horse must remain in the stable and cannot venture into the battle-field for want of the provender. Sunk though she may he through the imbecility and corruption of its riders, we are slow to believe any such libel upon the noble animal. In adverting to the fact that during the last war we contrived to carry on a glorious war with a mill-stone of more than twenty millions more taxation than is now paid, our oppo- Uents admit that so far we understated the truth, for the taxation additional then was about thirty millions. say they the fifty millions in which we are now taxed are equal to a hundred millions of such pounds as were paid in 1810, the year of Waterloo." To this we demur. We have heard, indeed, that on or ahout that period a guinea was worth a one pound and a half.

Assuming that a sovereign (there as no coinage of the denomination then,) now is equal the one pound and half of that period, the fifty millions of taxation of to-day would be equal and no ore, to seventy-five millions of the inconvertible Paper taxation of 1815 that is less in nominal value five millions than the same paper taxation really as in the same year. What becomes then of the hundred millions assumed as taxation of to-day in the currency of 1815 Great mistakes are committed daily in taking for granted that the whole of the debt contracted during the late war was so contracted in the same depreciated currency whereas that depreciation commenced only with the Bank restriction act, aud the extreme ratio of the depreciation did not arrive per saltum, but was the gradual growth of nor was it a standard depreciation, but fluctuated with foreign trade and is with imports, exports, and the balance of exchanges or trade. We throw out these suggestions for the rumination of friends of the Liberator, without any intention of diving further into the subject, which is by far too complicated to be disposed of in one or twenty articles. When the progress of the nation in Utdustry, wealth, and population is reflected on, no can doubt that we are as well, nay much better qualified now to sustain fresh burdens, to aise more loans, than at any period since the commencement of the present century; and should the case unfortunately arise by so much the enabled to resist aggression and punish wrong. accumulations yearly of profits from industry and sayings from income amount to several millions, the Ul fficulty of advantageously investing which is frequent "tatter of complaint in the money market.

The superabundance of unemployed capital is the daily theme of observation, and it has naturally led to its embarkation in schemes of very rash and ruinous tendency. In Spanish-American, Spanish and Portuguese Loans, all now unproductive, (excepting Braziuan,) not less certainly than 50 millions sterling of this superabundant capital has been risked and sunk. As much more at least is embarked in European Continental and United States Loans, from which interest continues to be derived to say nothing of the countless millions engaged in other foreign enterprises, such as hanks, canals, railroads, land speculations in Europe, hut chiefly in the United States, and our own Colonial possessions. Now all this surplus capital would preferentially have been invested at home, had there been openings for it adequate. The swollen and pent up stream naturally burst its domestic bounds when the hanks were no longer high enough to confine it to the one channel, and it overflowed, without ahvays beneficially irrigating more distant and less happy plains.

The rate of interest here was deteriorated to the lowest point hy this excess of money competition, and therefore it sought employment elsewhere, Avhere although the risk was naturally greater, the returns were more If a necessity existed for more loans at home an addition of one per cent, upon interest would suffice with the capitalist. Four per cent, at home, with the security attendant, would induce his instant abandonment of investments elsewhere with a less certain promise of five, six, or seven per cent. The twenty millions loan for the Negro Emancipation is a proof in Point at even a less rate of interest than four per cent. It was, as we all know, the affair scarcely Off a day, aud thrice the amount might have been had with as little demur. The writers of the Liberator are dreaming that fundlords are the only capitalists they might as well delude themselves with the idea that coals are to be found in Newcastle.

A new race of capitalists are springing up every day, for each year's accumulations of national or individual wealth creates them. If the established 152, or the 200,000 or 300,000 refuse their treasures, the State is not dependent on them alone in its hour of need. 1 here are thousands and tens of thousands of others with open hand, all eager and competing for the supply. Visionary therefore are the fears, or rather the assertions of the Liberator. The country is no more the miserable sport, the wretched dependent of an imaginary band of oligarch fundlords than are the coal fields and coal owners of Northumberland of that Worshipful Common Council, which is the concentrated epitome of all the twaddle, conceit and turtle gormandizing stupidity of the city of London.

This great empire, under leaders equal to the comprehension of its greatness, and to the task of wielding its boundless resources, will no more lack treasure in the hour of need than the right arms of accustomed nerve the moment of action. smews of war, and far oft fl tiie each of these she The unscrupulous hatch of Whig-Radicals who wear DnAam Livery are at their dirty tricks again; andhavesucceW Agister a host of persons the re glS trv, offer to 4hthe CoMervatoc avoid a scrutiny reBU th it is impossible to tempttble and unprincipled, that it characterise it as it deservesu 0 afc meanness and treachery of the fny time to stoop to the basest heir own selfish and the enemy can only be frustrated oy TW 6 UFSe them tG lost considerable time mere is not a moment to be ost, rpnuLsit( must necessarily elapse in for supporting" claims and a it is desirable that every it undergo a careful revision so that the completely purged of all persons not dulj qualified InSuaidUnd feints; replaced and a numberaddeTwho a Privilege.

CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN LORD PALMERSTON AND MR.

URQUHART. This very extraordinary correspondence has excited great interest in all quarters and it has heen remarked us a curious feature in the affair that the Government Papers are studiously sileut upon it. The fact is they are ashamed of the position in which Lord l'almerston is consider him convicted of the charges brought against have not a word to and the triumph of Mr. Urquhart is complete. Well may that gentleman exclaim, seeing the proud station he now holds in public estimation Magna est Veritas et pnevalebit." It has been very mud" the fashion of late to apply to some of the Ministers of the day the terms of fools, fops, and fribbles, hut now we see that there are other terms more fitting for some of the members of the present administration.

The John Hull With the state of the disagreement between Mr.

Urquahart and Lord Viscount l'ahnerston our readers generally are acquainted so far, so good but' Mr. Urquhart has, dining the past week, made a move in the game which involves some very curious circumstances and odd disclosures. As we have elsewhere said, the length of the letters entirely preclude their appearance In our columns, but a few extracts from Mr. Urquhart's reply to the Noble Viscount, will be found, we think, amusing aud instructing. The first paragraph contains evidence of the rapidity ofthe Lord Palinerston, and cannot fail to bring to mind the old story of the long-neglected protocols.

Lord Palmerston states that he is conscious that he ought sooner to have replied to my letter of the 20r.h of September, and replies to that letter on the -JUh of June, giving a reason as 1 have some reason to think "that my silencemay have been misconstrued by you, and therefore I shall no longer delay sending you a reply." After enumerating various letters that he had in the interim addressed to Lord Pahnerston, Mr. Urquhart comes out with the On the of December I addressed a letter to Lord Palmerston, on the subject of the non-settlement of the accounts of the Editor of the for which settlement Lord Pahnerston had referred me to Mr. Strangways in letter of the 25th of December, requiring a decision on this subject, remaining unanswered. The letter then proceeds to charge Lord Palmerston with various acts of omission and commission, involving such a period of time arid multiplicity of events that we are compelled to confine ourselves to this one tirst-touched-upon subject, the Portfolio publication which created a very powerful sensation, as containing unquestionably authentic State Papers, which it is clear never could have been made public without the active or passive co-operation of the most important diplomatic personages. Leaving, therefore, other things, we come to the Portfolio and to Lord Palmerston conduct connected with it, as described by Mr.

Urquhart. In Lord Pahnerston's letter denegation occurs but once. His Lordship, alluding to a periodical, the Portfolio, says, it was not, as you assert, connected with the Foreign Department" As I recollect, when on one occasion the period of publication of that periodical required a more hasty determination respecting the insertion of a despatch than could beobtained by reference to Lord Palmerstou or Mr. strangways, who were both absent from London, you, to whom I stated the difficulty, urged me to publish upon my own convictions. I replied, that not a single sheet should go from me to press without the sanction and revision of some member of tne Foreign Office: giving as my grounds for so doing the weighty responsibility involved in such a publication, extending even to the minutest cetaiis.

The recollection of this conversation has induced me to select you as the channel of this communication, because you attempted to induce me to take upon myself a responsibility of a very trifling nature indeed, as connected with it, which I refused to do. Through you also was transmitted to me on they'd ot May, 1896, a note requiring an explanation of some observation that had been made in the Portfolio on Mr. Poulett Thomson, in consequence of a complaint made to Lord Ponsonby by Mr. Poulett Thomson. If, after such communication between Lord Palmerston and one of his colleagues, Lord Palmerston denies all connexion between the Portfolio and the Foreign Department," it is clear that at least one of hi colleages in the Cabinet was so far implicated in this scheme as to enable Lord Palmerston to assert that which that colleague knew to be false, without fear of personal indignation or public exposure from such colleagues.

Even if the remaining circumstances which are within my knowledge, and some of which are here alluded to, had not impressed upon me the conviction lain forced to entertain respecting Lord Palmerston's honour as a man, or his loyalty to his Sovereign and his country, this brazen assertion respecting the Portfolio moat lead me todecline to hold any direct intercourse with at least communications of such a character and tone as are fitting for a subordinate to use in addressing one who holds so eminent a station. Though I would be no man's accuser, 1 ee myself bound in consequence of Lord Palmerston's denegation of the connexion of the Portfolio and the "Foreign Department," to prevent the responsibility, as in the case of the fijeen, of a Work of so monstrous a character from being nowaffixed on me. I therefore now distinctly assert mv right, and my determination to bring home to Lord Palmerston and to the Foreign Department" the responsibility of that publication. I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient servant, To John Backhouse, F.sq., DAVID URQUIIAKT The letter, whence the above is a brief extract, (applicable to only a minor point, yet still a strong one, under discussion) is well worth a perusal, as doubt not our readers will think after having seen the specimens which we have been able to submit to them. Such of them as are familiar with the nature of the work called the Portfolio, composed of the most important privite and confidential state Papers and despatches of and from the' Minis ters of the principal States of Europe, will doubtless hiiik the concoction and publication of such a work, at and under the sanction of the office of tbe Secretary of State to ifcta something strange.

These are queries wh lenee to the are entitled to have answered. So sw'ti, British merchants the men of Hull; so in their daily interconr dw so say of London.

Of this fact none arl eh IS rap than the Russian diplomatists.

Her already raistrt in the scale of civilization, manufactures ar ri-iilv established, her vast resources are daily developed above all the power of her nobles is undermined. Despotism is becoming strong by being, after its kind, intelligent. Whilst we are ruining our trade, and destroying the very sources of our wealth by our restrictive and anti-commercial system, our corn laws, our timber and other excessive duties, we are aiding those governments who. hy following our example, will ultimately shut out our products from the continent of Europe, and perhaps of Asia. These are tne selfish deeds of a landed aristocracy.

Our merchants and manufacturers are virtually the serfs of the squires, and it is because the aristocratic government is unsupported by the industry of the country, it dares not call the Muscovite to account for confiscating our merchant ships. The time is not, cannot be tar distant when we shall again be called ttnon to resistor succumb to Russian encroachments; every day lUsens our power to resist effectually: every hour adds to their means and increases their temptations to encroach. All accounts agree that Russia is gradually obtaining the command ofthe rind of communication in Asia, and the transactions in Persia ire tending that way. We shall finally be compelled to make til Wherein, after the expenditure of much blood and treasure w' shall probably be victorious. But wherefore is this evil ESS countered Solely because our rulers are not honest their own subjects to be just towards other nations w' 1 the products of other nations, lest the rents nfour be diminished, and then we wonder those nations make for themselves goods we will not sell to them imm, cl terms of mutual advantage.

Our daily contemporaries have l.i occupied throughout the week In discussing the genuineness of plan for the partition of France, said to have been abstracted from the Russian archives. It may or it may not be what it affects -it is more probably the work of some wily diplomatist. It is, "pelhaps, intended to excite in France and in England sentiments of hostility towards Russia, and is not unlikely to be sent forth by some German enthusiast. We find a large section of the Germans, who were formerly avowed republicans, now look forward to the creation of a German nation, and to that end are not disinclined to make use of Austrian power. And this is the source from which we apprehend the entanglements of Continental diplomacy, to be perhaps finally cut short by an European war, In which we shall again subsidize all our allies to enable them to advance their own objects.

Then we shall have our Foreign Minister, be he Palmeiston or Aberdeen, grandiloquent upon national honour, and the necessity of preserving the respect of foreign powers, for then our aristocracy will see there is plunder to be gained by a national war- whereas, what can Dukes and the sons of Dukes gain by a smail armament, small because promptly used, to avenge an injury offered to a vessel of 906 tons with a cargo ot Pooh the idea is ridiculous to aristocratic minds, and with a packed Parliament for six years to come, the grumblings and warnings of suffering merchants will be disregarded. Ihe paltering upon the Vixen has rendered it certain that a war with Russia will, ere many years have passed away, be an evil to be encountered by the British People. LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. The Mayor of Newcastle has issued cards for an Assembly at the Assembly Rooms, on Monday the 20th inst. being the first day of the meeting of the British Association of Science.

Lord Prudhoe is shortly expected in this country from the Continent, to be present at the Meeting of the British Association at Newcastle. Grouse Shooting commences on Monday morning. The prospects of the sportsman are very cheering lor the season; game was never known to be more plentiful nor stronger on the wing at so early a period ot the year. The convalescence of Lord Stormont, son-in-law Of Cuthbert Ellison, Esq. after the long and severe indisposition, with which he was attacked soon alter the demise of his deeply-lamented and accomplished lady, has enabled the Noble Lord to resume his parliamentary duties.

It is stated hy one of our contemporaries that a Baronetcy has been recently offered to Chas. m. IJ.gge, of Linden, who however declined accepting the honour. It must be admitted that a more worthy, more respectable, and more popular man does not exist in the County ot Northumberland than Mr. Bigge, and there can he no doubt that the public at large would be gratified to see his name marked hy some honourable distinction.

The following distinguished personages have passed through this town during the present the Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch, the Duke and Duchess of Roxburgh, Dowager Lady Saltoun, the Earl of Aberdeen and family, the Marquess and of Hastings, Lady Keith, and Lord Cawdor. The Weather has since our last been, we regret to say, exceedingly unfavourable, vast quantities of rain having fallen by night and by day, and at present there is but small prospect of a beneficial chance. It must be admitted that not only the ay but that the Corn crops are now placed in considerable jeopardy, as the residue of the summer season can scarcely be regarded as sufficient to bring them to maturity. A more moist and ungenial season has not occurred in this country formally years The Grey Column is now so far advanced that the shaft of the column has reached its elevation.

A meeting of the subscribers to the Victoria Blind Asylum was held in the Council Chamber, in this town, on I Thursday last, the Mayor of Newcastle in the chair, when resolutions were adopted for the establishment of the institution, and a committee appointed to procure information I as to site, plans, and estimates, for the proposed building. A deputation from the different public and scientific bodies of Glasgow have heen appointed to wait on and invite the British Asssociation to hold a meeting of the Association, on as early an occasion as possible, in that city.

Another deputation will also attend from Sheffield at the approaching meeting, to request that tlie next anniversary be held in that town. It is generally understood that the Association will meet next year in Birmingham. The following ladies have signified their intention of furnishing Stalls at the approaching Bazaar intended to be held in aid of the Building Fund of St. John's National Schools Duchess of Northumberland, Lady Ravensworth, Lady Alary Monck, Lady Blackett, High Sheriff, Mrs. Mayoress, John Cookson, Mrs.

Lister and Son, of this town, has been presented to Mr. James Pringle, ship-broker. It hears the following inscription to Mr. James Pringle, Newcastle, by a numerous circle of his friends, as a mark of esteem for his upright, persevering conduct, and assiduity as a merchant and private gentleman." Mr. Thornhill, Lecturer on Botany in the Newcastle-upon-Tyne School of Medicine and Surgery, awarded his prize on Saturday the 4th instant, to Mr.

Edward Thompson, pupil of Mr. Thornton and his honorary certificate to Mr. William Robson Shiell, pupil of W. Dawson, Esq. He particularly expressed his satisfaction at the attention and proficiency of Mr.

Thompson and Mr. Shiell, whose knowledge of the subject he considered nearly equal. The principal Corn-merchants of Newcastle have adopted the following resolution, to come into operation on the L'itth of That in consequence of general complaints from the shippers of Wheat to this market, against the system which now obtains here of selling wheat by the bushel of the cornfactors agree for the future to sell exclusively by weight, and to consider OOtbs. equivalent to a bushel of wheat, conformably with the practice in the Wakefield market; that purchasers, however, be enjoined to make their returns to the corn-inspector as hitherto, according to the real weight per imperial bushel." About sixty of the brethren of the Hope Lodge, No. 980, of the Manchester Independent Order of Odd Fellows, attended the obsequies of John Temple, tanner, of Liverpool-street, Newcastle, on Thursday.

The proceedings were conducted with the utmost decorum. The proposed Subscription Hotel at Tynemouth appears likely to receive very general support. A great number of shares have already been taken, and amongst the subscribers are Sir Chas. E. Grey, M.P., Mattw.

Bell, M.P., Johiillodgsonllinde, M. Sanderson Ilderton, Win. Chapman, John Clayton, Wm. Mather, Robert Leadhitter, Robt Watson, and other influential gentlemen. A monument to the memory of the Rev.

Alexander Shaw, late minister of Carliol-street Chapel, was erected in Hartburn Church Yard ou the lst instant. This tribute has been subscribed by a few friends, who were anxious to express their esteem and gratitude for their much lamented pastor. Gas.

Anderson, Wm. Woods, Geo. T. Dunn, W. Mountain, H.

A. Mitchell, and R. P. Phiiipson. Steps have been taken to ascertain the quality of the gas now supplied at both the Newcastle and Gateshead works, and it has also been resolved, that a general survey be made of the whole of the gas establishment's pipes and works by a competent engineer; the amount of reduction in the price of gas which shall be made after the present quarter, win form the subject of consideration at a meeting of the Directors to be heid in the course of a few days.

At an Ordination held in the Parish Church of Bishoptborpe, by his Grace the Archbishop of York on Sunday last, Joseph Henry Sutton, A.8., of University College, Durham, was ordained Deacon. There is every prospect of the Bridges so long contemplated over Brier Dean and Meggies Burn, between North Shields and Blyth, heing completed, the Duke ot Northumberland having subscribed £200, Sir M. W. Ridley, Bart. £200, and Sir Jacob Astley, Bart.

towards their erection. The estimated cost of the two is about i.i.00. My. Francis Drew, one of the apprentices of the George and Jane of this port, fell from the stern of the said ship at Shields, on the 30th when getting into the boat. His body was found, after being eight days in the water, near the place where he fell in.

An inquest was held on the body, and a verdict of found drowned returned. Mr. Greggs, his master, him an excellent character as a faithful servant. The Irish labourers employed on ewcastle and Shields Railroad have subscribed £25 from their hard earned in aid of the funds for erecting a Monastery for the followers of La Trappe in Leicestershire. Par better and more consistent with true chanty would it have been to have sent the money to their half-starved countrymen Ireland.

The licences of dealers in plate expired on Thursday sennight. In cases where the licences are not renewed, defaulters are subjected to a penalty of £20. The licences of hawkers expired on Wednesday, and persons hawking without a fresh licence will subject themselves to fine and imprisonment. Valuers and appraisers acting without a licence will render themselves liable to heavy penalties. The Barristers who have been appointed to revise the Electoral Lists for the County ot Durham, and the Boroughs within it, for the present year, are Messrs.

Deacon, Marshall, and Lutwidge. At this season of the year, when the mad dog cry is rife, it were well it' those persons who keep dogs in confinement would take care to let the poor prisoners have at all times plenty of fresh water to drink. The Master of the Faculty has been pleased to appoint Mr. Sharp, Solicitor, Notary Public. British preparations for the Scientific Meeting in this town are proceeding with great vigour, and are rapidly approaching towards completion.

It has been determined, we understand, to abandon one of the intended promenades, as the expences it is found are likely to exceed the subscriptions. There will, however, be ample accommodations iv those which are being prepared. The promenade in the Green Market will be open on Wednesday evening, and that in the Assembly Rooms on Friday evening, the other evenings being reserved for meetings in the central Exchange. The Committee have been thrown into some difficulty respecting the number of persons who are expected to attend. It was not anticipated that more than 700 persons in this district would have become members of the Association, and the Committee had made their calculations accordingly for the admission of at ij es; but it appears that the number of local members will amount to 1170- The Central Exchange is calculated to seat 2700, or with standing room to admit 3000.

800 or 1000 members may be expected from a distance, the number last year heing 1840. Under these circumstances the Committee have resolved that the number of ladies' tickets, 500 of which have already been paid for, shall be limited to 800, and that the remaining IJOO shall be disposed of to non-resident ladiesin the following manner any member who is nonresident applying for a ticket to admit one lady, who accompanies him to the meeting, shall receive one gratis but il more than one ticket is required, then such member to pay tor one extra lady £2, for two and for three £10 or up- rh different rooms and buildings have been in- CWm! i ll Phillips, who has made a report to the arr-m" 1 they have received and confirmed.

His Grace the Duke of Northumberland, patron ol the society, will preside at both the meeting and dinner. the Bishop of Durham, president, and nearly all the vice-presidents have also, we understand, already signified their intention of being present. The committee ot the society have specially invited many of the leading members of the association, who are to be in this town, to remain over the society's meeting and be present at the dinner and, as amongst the names of those who have already accepted the invitation may be mentioned Herschel, Huckland, Sedgwick, Lyall JUcLeay, Jenvns, Dr.

Greville, Sir David Milne, Gray, Dr. Lar'dner, a great intellectual treat may be anticipated, which will be an appropriate finish to the visit of the association to this town.

At a meeting held at Otterburn on Thursday, it as resolved that a Bridge across the River Reed at Otterburn would be a great advantage to the surrounding district and particularly to the proprietors of Eisdon Parish. A subscription was immediately entered into in aid of the desirable object, and several handsome sums were placed in the hands of the Committee. Blyth and Seaton Sluice Races will take place on the 30th inst. From the excellent arrangements of the Stewards, combined with the amount of the Stakes to be run lor, good sport is anticipated.

In defiance of the late unseasonable weather, which bears little resemblance to summer, Keswick, Ambleside, and other places on the Lakes of Cumberland and Westmorland were never known to be so full of company as they are this season.

Mr. Russell Bowlby best answer to the trash of the unprincipled vagabond at Durham, who has just received his discharge from the service of Lambton Castle, and in his extremity has undertaken for pay to write up the damaged reputation of Mr. Russell Bowlby, of Cleadon Meadows, is the brief and pithy address made to the unhappy culprit open Court by one of the Learned Judges ot the land and therefore we again publish it, recommending it to the attentive consideration of all and sundry, who are disposed to wage war with us upon this particular matter.

NEWCASTLE AND CARLISLE RAILWAY COMPANY THE SCOTSWOOD BRIDGE COMPANY.

An adjourned Sessions for the County of Northumberland was held at the Moot Hall in this Town, on Monday, before Sanderson Ilderton, and a bench of Magistrates, for the purpose of trying this suit, which was an action to assess the amount of damages sustained by the Scotswood Bridge Company by the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway crossing the road at Paradise, near Scotswood, and for a piece of ground required hy the Railway Company of one rood seventeen perches in extent, for which the Railroad Company offered £150. Mr. Tkmplb for the defendants, took an objection on a point of law, which was overruled, and the jury were sworn. Mr. Tkmplk then stated that it was the intention ofthe Newcastle and Carlisle Railroi.il company to carry an arch or bridge over the Scotswood road, at Paradise, and to take a part ofthe ground belonging to the Scotswood Bridge Company of upwards of one rood In extent, for which they offer the sum of £50, and for the annoyance and injury the defendants would experience a further sum of £100.

He Mas of opinion the plaintiffs had not acted in fairness to them or to the public in the transaction, and the jury were called upon to decide between them. The injury would be threefold, by locomotive engines crossing the road at the point named, by the alteration of the road from its present course or direction to a narrower and more circuitous one, and by deterring passengers from travelling along it In consequence of the alteration ofthe road, and the danger to be apprehended from the use of steam engines so near it, rendering it extremely probable that the company would be liable to indictments and prosecutions, without they were to be at the additional expence of purchasing the adjoining land in order to make the road straighter and better than it was intended to be made by the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway Company. In addition railway fora considerable distance runs parallel with the Scotswood Road, and might be liable to prosecution as a nuisance. The evidence offered went to show that the proximity of the railway to the Scotswood Road would have a tendency to depreciate its value, and that the road could not be made an efficient means of transit for passengers and carriages, and that at a moderate calculation the damages could not be estimated at less than £509. Mr.

ImmAM, fax the plaintiffs, contended that their Act of Parliament reserved to them the right to cross the Scotswood that Blaydon was a central station for those passengers to assemble at who were desirous of travelling the defendants knew a bill was before the House of Commons to enable them to build a bridge and continue their line of railway to Newcastle, crossing the water at Redheugh or above the Scotswood But though they were allowed to build a bridge for railway purposes, it as to be strictly confined to the conveyance of railway carriages, and no passenger or carriage of any description could possibly be Bttowad to pass over it, but must of necessity make use of the other bridge as usual. The Learned Gentleman then argued on the general increased means of communication between one place and another M-ould considerably increase the traffic, and that the Company are compelled by their act to make a and good substantial arch, and to make and keep the road in good repair for a reasonable time. If there was damage sustained the jury M-ere called upon to give it an expression in pounds sterling He as of opinion that they ought to have come and negociated ith the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway Company, who had the poM er to make the alteration in the road to the extent that the proprietors of it might desire; they had not the poMers to do it themselves, as the poM'ers of their act expired some time ago; and he thought a lc tlle piece of ground, hich M-as at the rate of £120 an acre, and for the annoyance and injury they might receive during the time of erecting the bridge and altering the road, was a sufficient compensation. The Jury, after some deliberation, awarded £300, as damages, to the Scots Mood Bridge Company, and to have the road altered according to the opinion of the surveyors, who were Mitnesses for the Scotswood Bridge Company, the estimated cost of which Mas xllo more. The Railway Company also undertook to keep the road in repair for the term of two years.
