A PRINCIPAL feature in this undertaking is the erection at the Old, or Aust Passage, of a fixed bridge across the estuary of the Severn, adapted as well for railway traffic as for ordinary carriage and pedestrian intercourse. By the construc- tion of this bridge, and the intended line of railway in connexion with it, two great objects will be attained: first, there will be established, by means of a junction at Hereford with the pro- posed lines north of that city, a direct, unbroken line of railway communication between Bristol and Liverpool, with a saving in distance of about forty-two miles over the present route; and, secondly, there will be opened a free communication between the southern and western portions of England, on the one hand, and Monmouthshire and South Wales on the other. These important districts have hitherto been practically severed, and only rendered accessible to each other by a most inconvenient ferry, dependent on tides and weather. The want of a fixed bridge over the Severn, at the point above mentioned, has long been severely felt, and it would be impossible, whether in reference to national or local interests, to over estimate the advantages of a scheme designed to supply this want. It has not, however, been from a consideration of its impracticability that such a work has not long since been accomplished. In the year 1825, Mr. Telford, the late celebrated engineer, was con- sulted upon the subject, and gave a most decided opinion in favour of it, particularly adverting (amongst other causes afford- ing facility) to the great height of the banks at the Old Passage, to the fact of the bed^f the river consisting wholly of solid rock, and to the circumstance that suitable materials for the work could be procured within a reasonable distance. „tT,or The engineers of the present "proposed work, as well.as other engineers of eminence, are equally confident g practicability of the undertaking. Until recent times, and before the period had arm ed when Railway traffic and profits had reached their present astonishing extent, the expense of this bridge, compared with the prooa traffic-returns, naturally retarded its projection; but now, when Vvorks equally difficult and expensive, such as tunnels and via- ducts are readily constructed by railway companies for the mere traffic of their line, and sometimes only to avoid a comparatively trifling deviation, it will be at once admitted, that with a vle merely to the formation of a direct line between Bristol and 'Liverpool, (without looking to collateral or ultra terminal ad- vantages) the magnitude of the undertaking is no longer to be regarded as an impediment to its completion. The recent decision of the Admiralty against the proposed bridge at the Hock Crib, several miles higher up the Estuary, and subsequent report of the Committee of the House ot Commons, leave the Aust passage the only practicable point for 4 fixed bridge. Arrangements have been concluded with His Grace the Duke of Beaufort, and the other Proprietors of the Aust Ferry, whereby the purchase of that important interest has been se- "ured to this Company. The line will commence at Bristol, and proceed to the Aust Passage: there, crossing the proposed bridge to Beachley, it will run northward along the valleys of the Wye and Monnow, "Y Chepstow and Monmouth to Hereford, which city will form •he other terminus of the line. At Hereford the direct chain of communication to Liverpool will be completed by the lines now projected between those places. It is obvious that this route will furnish to the west and south-west of England the best and most direct means of communication not only with Liverpool and the north of England, but with Dublin and the north of Ireland. To Bristol itself the value.of the project cannot be over-esti- mated. It will secure to that ancient city the continuance of its long-enjoyed position as the emporium of commerce in the West. It is proposed to connect the line with the forest of Dean, by which means the vast mineral resources of that district will be developed to an extent hitherto unattained. Many other advantages will at once suggest themselves to those acquainted with the locality of the proposed railway amongst others it may be mentioned, that the route will em- brace Tintern Abbey and the other celebrated scenery of the Wye, which, notwithstanding the difficulty and expense of reaching them by the present means of transit, annually attract a great number of visitors. The engineering capabilities of the line have been ascertained to be excellent.. Investigations on the subject of the traffic have been made, which fully justify the conclusion that the undertaking will prove a profitable invest- ment of capital, as well as a great national and local eonve- "'Application to be made for shares to the ^visional Com- mittee, at the Company's Offices, 23, Moorg!^ticjst ]London, °r to the undermentioned Brokers: Exeter "M 32, Throgmorton-street, London; Mr. Sanfo d, Exeter■; Mr Henry Vacher, Exeter; Mr. May, Liverpool,^]Anthony Laurie, Liverpool; Messrs.

Bristol & Liverpool Junction Railway, WITH A FIXED BRIDGE OVER THE SEVERN AT THE OLD PASSAGE. THE Committee think it right to Notice an Advertisement JL which appeared in the Morning Herald of the 12th instant, announcing an Extension to Monmouth of the Line formerly proposed by the Bristol and South Wales Junction Railway Company. It is well known that the now proposed extension formed no part of the scheme originally promulgated by that Company, and It is only now put forward when the more comprehensive project of the Bristol and Liverpool Junction Company has been cordially received by the public. The promoters of the latter undertaking deem it incumbent on them publicly to state their opinion, that the recent decision of the Lords of the Admiralty against crossing the estuary of the Severn at the Hock Crib, has no applicability whatever to the proposed crossing at the Old Passage by means of a Bridge, which shall offer no obstruction to the free course of the Navi- gation, and this is the peculiar characteristic of their Bridge. The Committee, in fact, consider that the recent decision of the Admiralty will materially forward the construction of the pro- posed Bridge at the Old Passage. The Committee at present refrain from comment on the other statements put forth in the Advertisement in qwstion, knowing that ample opportunity will hereafter be afforded for establish- ing the superior claims to public and national support possessed by their scheme, when compared with that of their rival.

As a creator and conservator of a transparently fair skin, "Rowland's Kaljdor may be said to exert an almost magical power. Composed for the most part of Oriental Balsamic Exotics, to the utter exclusion of all mineral admixture, it is dis- tinguished for its extremely bland, purifying, and soothing effects upon the skin and, by acting upon the pores and minute se- cietory vessels, expels all impurities from the suiface, allays every tendency to inflammation, and thus effectually dissipales all Redness, Tan, Pimples, Spots, Blotches, Freckles, Sunburn, and other unsightly Cutaneous Visitations. The radiant bloom it imparts to the Cheeck; the softness and delicacy which it in- duces on the Hands, Arms, and Neck its capability of soothimi irritation and removing cutaneous defects, sallowness, and all unsightly appearances, render it indispensable to every toilet. It is invaluable as a renovating and refreshing Wash, intra- veiling, during the heat and dust of summer; and in cases of sun. burn stings of insects, or incidental inflammation, its virtues have long and extensively been acknowldged, To LADIES, during the period ot sucklirg, it is of great i-npor- tance it affords relief to inflamed nipples, and cools and rendeis the infant's mouth truly comfortable. To GBNTLIIMEN afflicted with a tenderness of the skin in shaving, the application of thaKalydor will be t'o md to allay all cuticular iiritation, removing every pimple and all roughness, and rendering the skin smooth and soft.

Communicated by C. R. RUTTER, Drugf-ist, &c.,Shaftesbury. A female, resident in the town of Shaftesbury, has been se- verely afflicted with Rheumatism for nearly twenty years. It has generally come on towards the end of the" year, at the com- mencement of severe weather, and has frequently confined her to bed for several tveeks together. Various remedies were tried in hopes of obtaining relief, but with so little success, that she quite despaired or cure. In the winter of 1843, finding symp- I t0.s of her complaint coming on, she determined to give Parr's Lite Pills a trial; the first box rc-iieved her much, and from stea- dily persevering in their use, her complaint, although of so many years' standing, has entirely left her, and from her commencing the use of the pills, she has not had a single attack. She was abo troubled with Shortness of Breath and Asthmatic Cough, which was, at times, so bad as to prevent her sleeping, bu. since taking Parr's Pills, this, also, has entirely left her. This person does not wish her name pul)lished, but C.R.Putter is at liberty to mention it to enquirers, and he will be happy to give every infomia:ion respecting this remarkable cure, upon ap- plication to him, either personally or by letter, post-paid..

I had been out of It ealtli. for many years; sometimes unable to work, and on the sick club. I had a bad complaint at the stomach, with a violent cough, and at various times was under different medical men, including the noted Dr. Newbold, of the Chorlton Dispensary but my case seemed hopeless, as they none of them could cure, or give me much relief, and I had no hopes left of being better on thiazide the grave however, quite unexpected, the deliverer came ff last (Old Parr's Recipe). I got a box of his pills, and round mmediate benefit from the first box, and continued them for several months with increased good until this time, and now I feel myself wonderfully well, and am strong in body, have a good appetite, and, though in my 77th year, I am able to get my own living in the employ of Air. Mee, farmer, Withington, as a farm labourer.

THE following case of DROPSY can scarcely be called a JL cure, being so wonderful and extraordinary as to be little siiort of* a mira(,Ie Mr. John Robinson, an opulent farmer at Grazie residing in Wotton, in Bedfordshire, was lately reduced to the appafent extremities of death, being at the time so bloated with water as to be increased in size to double his usual bigness indeed his legs had become so large around, that they actually burst in three places. In this most alarming and dangerous state his medical man informed hirn "that he could not possibly live more than two days longer Mr. Robinson, upon hearing this instantly dismissed his doctor, and had recourse alone to the wonderful efficacy of Holloway's Pills, which not only saved his life, but likewise effectually expelled the water irom the system and restored him in a short space of time, by a steady perseve- rance in the use of the pills, to as sound and as perfect a state of health as ever he enjoyed. N.B.—Mr. Ilobiuson, whose life has just been saved by these Pills, is well known to most persons, not only throughout Bed- fordshire, hut also in the surrounding counties. .AN ASTONISHING CURE OF A CONFIRMED LIVER COMPLAINT.

She attended the Hospitals, at different periods, for about three years, but she only got worse instead of better, and her recovery at last appeared quite hopeless but notwithstanding the very bad state of her health, she was in about two months, restored to perfect health by the means alone ot this all-powerful and efficacious medicine—Holloway's Pills.

DOMESTIC ITEIVS. The diamonds in the Queen's stomacher, worn at the recent lbal costume.' were estimated as worth floo,ooo, and the jewellery in the star worn by Prince Albert at £ 52,000. The statement that the Liverpool bankers have given notice of an intention to cease allowing taterest on deposits is said to be incorrect. A Dorset Tory paper suggests that the Conservatives should put up Mr. Buller of Downes, as a candidate for the next vacancy in the Exeter seat. As the Tories have taken Whig measures, we don't see why they should not take Whig men also.- Western Times.

SUDDEN DEATH OF A GENTLEMAN OF FORTUNE.—A jury was, on Saturday, empanelled by Mr. Wakley, M.P., at the Devonshire 'Arms, Duke-street, 'Foiev-street, f^arylebcce, to inquire into the death of the late Stafford Biist.ow Morrison. Esq., aged 75, a private gentlemau of independent fortune, who was found dead at his lodgings in Duke-street, last Thursday, having been previously in excellent health and spirits. it would appear that the unfortuuate gentleman was in the act cf dress- ing, when he suddenly expired. The coroner and jury having returned from viewing tba body, the coroner said that having ascertained that the deceased had no relatives or friends in Lon- don, and that the former, who tesided ia the country, wero by letter informed of his death, he felt bound to adjourn the inqusst until the arrival of those relatives in London, in order to afford an opportunity of having the body opened. If he acted other- wise, a coroner's inquest would be no longer a safeguard to life. The jury agreed with the coroner, and the inquiry was accordingly adjourned. Mr. Smith, the proprietor of the shooting gallery in Holborn, expired on Thursday morning last, from an abscess, caused by the wound in his back. It may be remembered he was shot last July by the Honourable Mr. Tucket, who was tried, and acquit- ted on the ground of insanity. THE LATE INHUMAN OUTRAGE.-We are eratified to hear that Mr. Fletcher, the surgeon, has pronounced the poor woman Harris, whose husband inflicted upon her such hrlllaland beastly injuries a short time ago, out of danger. She was, however, not sufficiently recovered to attend at the petty sessions yesterday, where her husband was brought up, but two magistrates, Mr. Ricketts and the Rev. W. Vernon, went to her residence at Stoke. The injured woman prayed the magistrates to bind her husband over to keep the peace. Her request was complied with, and he was ordered to find security to the amount of 1:50., failing which be was committed to prison, and taken back to Worcester, in the care of Sylvesier, one of the turnkeys of the gaol, who brought him to Bromsgrove in the morning. We hear that the reason poor Mis. Harris was anxious her husband should not be proceeded against for the capital offence, was her dresd that she should be obliged to go into the uutou woikhouse, a case he were quite taken away from her. This explains why she was desirous thai the magistrates should treat the case one ol common assault only. lhe fellow deserved to have been trans- ported for life for such atrocious conduct.— Worret-ter Chronicle. JFALUIISY AND MURDEB.—.A supeiintendent of police, named Goulee, at Durham, has been committed for murdeiing Ins wife, and attempting to murder Mr. Sciuton, deputy cleik of the plnre for the county. It appeared that jealousy prompted the attack Mr. Goulee was seen to eater his house, und words were hear t between him and his wife, who made a rush to the door. followed by her husband, and when in the passage he fired a pistol at her, which would no doubt have produced a fatal result had she net bent her head but in doing so she raised her arm, %i lich was broken by the shot. She immediately got out of the door and ran screaming across the street, and as she was cutering a neighbour's house, her husband discharged a second pistol at her, the shot from which struck the door frame through which sl;o made her escape. At this untoward moment, Mr. Sertiton unexpectedly appeared in the street, and upon seeing him, Goulee rushed on him, knocked him down with the pistol, and then kicked and jumped upon him with great violcDce. Goulee was at length secured, and as be was being conveyed to piison, he contrived to take a knife from his pocket, with which he in. flicted a severe wound in his own thioat. The injuries Mr. Goulee received brought on fever, which terminated in death, and a verdict of Wilful Murder has been returned against the husband. GREAT YARMOUTII.-Tlie total loss of life arising from the accideut at Yarmouth is 79 (bodies found 77), and mobt provi- dectially not one of that number had any psison dependent on him or her. Qoly eight or t.f the deceased exceeded twenty one years of age. Another bridge, on piles, has since been thrown over the river near the site of the former suspension- bridge, the platform of this latter being used to form the road- way of the present. SINGULAR CASE OF POISONING.-An inquest was held lately at Malvern on the body of Richard Wilkins, whose death WHS caused by his drinking cider that had been conveyed in lead or zinc pipes from the cider-house to a room where it was drawn. 1 e jury acquitted the farmer in whose employment Wilkins was rom any blame, but said that after that investigation any person using simi ar pipes for the conveyance of cider would be liable to OnT mansl*u8hter, or even murder. ■young men accidentally fell out of a boat into the river Dun, near Doncaster, and three were diowned. One of the survtrois tl still in a precarious state. F» ,°.l L AIR,—We deeply regret to announce week, of another*of tbe.^aca j^r^h- V^ i i. i which, unfortunately have of Tt,8 mlniinn recurrence in this district. The explosion took place about ten o'clock in the morning, while a number of workmen were engaged in the pit; several were severely scorched and one poor man, named David Bees, was killed by a all of coal from the roof, caused by the violent con- cussion of «lr catastrophes, Thedeceased has left a wife and young family. r LONO CRAIE AND CAPTURE or A THIEF.-On Sunday night week a man named Richard LewIs, decamped from the house of John Mansel, of Aberdare, where he was a lodger, with vario(is articles of wearing apparel belonging to the landlord and o'her lodgers. Notice having been given to Police-Sergeant Sadler stationed at Aberdare, about seven o'clock on Monday morning, that active officei immediately started in pursuit. From informa- tion obtained on the road, he suspected the thief to have taken the mountrin route to Devynoock to Brecon. On coming to DevynuOck, Sadler found reason to think he had overshot the mark, and shrewdly guessing tbe thief would, towards night, come to the road and seek lefieshments, he retracted his step?.' Taking the precaution of making inquiries by the toad side, and leaving descriptions of the thief, he came to Capel Nant DJ«, about two o'clock on Tuesday morning. He had pursued the fox to his lair, and after a diligent pursuit succeeded in capturing his man at the Hotse and Jockey, where he was plentifully regal ing himself with bread and cheese and beer. He brought him home, and had him taken before G. R. Morgan, Esq. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and was committed to take his trial at the next Assizes. On Satuiday morning last, the Wesleyan Chapel, at Liskeard, was totally destroyed by fire. The loss is estimated at £900. Aa insurance was effected for £ 500. THE MUSICAL FESTIVAL. We have the greatest pleasure in announcing that her Majesty the Queen has been most graciously pleased, through the medium of the Lord Steward, Earl Dela- warr, to accord her patronage to our approaching musical cele- bration in aid of the fund for the relief of the widows and oiphaca of poor clergymen in the three dioceses of Worcester, Hereford, and Gloucester; and also that her Majesty Queen Adelaida has signified her gracious intention to patronise the festival. Everything at present appears to hold out the most favourable promise of a good and successful meeting. The programme is the very best we have seen for many years.- fvorcester Guardian. CAMBRIDGE.

RAILW A Y BILLS.— Ihe following is the further resolution Imposed b>' Eord Brougham, to be made a standing order of the use -Lords, regarding Railway and other Bills :—" That, in every railway, road, or canal bill, after the present session, 'here shall, in the first session in which it is brought iii. bei proved in the committee thereon two thirds in number of assents of landowners on any two miles of the line, or on any four miles if there be fewer than three landowneis and that if more than one third shall dissent oa any such two miles or four miles respectively, the railway, road, or canal, shall not be suficred to pass through those two miles or four miles ot the termini, all owners of land within two hundred yards of the proposed line shall be deemed and taken to be owners, in it,ckoning the num- ber of assents and dissents. THE RAILWAY COLossus.-The Great North of England, so far as matters go at present, may be considered to be in the hands of Mr. Hudson, to the great advantage of the public and the shareholders; and it is to be supposed the Board ol Trade hardly presume to meddle with the arrangement. Some idea may be formed of Mr. Hudson's arduous labouis this session, when It IS considered that he has successfully thrown out several measures on standing orders-carried thirteen of his own bills to a safe pos ition in committee—thrown out the Northumberland, and other rival s-hainpered the London and Yoik-botlpi,,t ul) the Hull and Selby and Great North of England raihva\s, and the Oakham canal-presided at several special general laiiway meet- ings-given evidence neaily every day in commiltc-e, and at- tended on committee to help his protegees, the London and Bir- mingham, through their difficulties. The name of the railway Napoleon was not given to such a man ai George Hudson vainly. Railway Herald. Messrs.
