ENGINEER. Sir John Rennie, F. R. S. SECRETARY, PRO TEM. Thomas Dyke, Esq. 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 of the river consisting wholly of solid rock' and to the circumstance that suitable materials for the work could be procured within a reasonable distance. The engineers of the present proposed work, as well as otlfer engineers of eminence, are equally confident of the thorough practicability of the undertaking. Until recent times, and before the period had arrived when railway traffic and profits had reached their present astonishing extent, the expense of this bridge, compared with the probable traffic-returns, naturally retarded its projection; but now, when works equally difficult and expensive, such as tunnels and via- ducts are readilv 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 view 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 CriD. several miles' higher up the Estuary, and subsequent report of the Committee of the House of Commons, leave the Aust passage the only practicable point for a fixed bridge. C 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- cured 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, by Chepstow and Monmouth to Hereford, which city will form the other terminus of the line. At Hereford the direct chain of communication to Liverpool will be completed by the lines now projected between t4ose places. It is obvious tha t 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 mint'ral 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 he 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 conve- nience.

AS we are now celebrated in the metropolis for supplying Good and Pure Tea*, and irr order that the advantages we hold out may be equally appieciated in the country, we feel called upon to prove the following very important facts, viz. That the higher priced Teas are ihecheapest, and that the worst trash of Teas imported into this kingdom, are not retailed in London, hut find their way into the country, and so into the lea-pot of the country consumer. With respect to the importation of Tea, it should be univer- sally known, and altva)s borne in mind. that the expense of bringing Tea over from China. and the duty, (namely 2s. 2Jd. per pound) payable to our Government on its arrival here, are the same on all descriptions, whether good or bad consequently the purity and goodness of Teas depend on the prices hrst paid for them when purchased in China irom the growers. It is necessary, thsiefore, that all should be awara that in this country the quality of Toa increases mitre than the advance of prices would appear to justify, as tor instance—the tea costing in China 2s. per pound, which (when the duty, namely 2s. 2id. per pound, and the expanse of carriage, profit, &e., is added) cannot be sold here under 4s. 6d. per pound, is evidently Twice as Good as that costing in China Is., which, when the duty &c., is added, cannot be sold here under 3s 6d. per pound 'so that whilst the price increases only aboutolle-foultit, the Teabeoomes twice as good in quality. Having now made it manifest that the fine or higher priced Teas are the cheapest, we will direct attention to the following fact as corroborative of the statement that the vilest rubbish listed on the public as J ea. has been, tu nn incredible extent, vended wllle country. Between January 1st, 1S43, and June, 1844, there have been sold, at tne lea Auctions, in Mincing Lane, at prices varying from one penny to sixpence per pound. 3,417 850 pounds of trash, dignified by tne name ox Tea," which, after passing through various hands, nas at length found tbe country its prin- cip.u channel of consumption. No one at all conrsant with the sanitary properties of the Tea-Plant, its benches] effects when good, auti its pernicious consequences when bad, can fail to be struck with the incalcu- lable injury to health that must have resulted from the known consumption of the above. i o prevent a grievance so truly deplorable in its consequences e as tiii-t now poii)ted out, we have resolved to supplv direct from NUMBER ONE, ST. PAUL'S CHURCHYARD, our good and pure leas, at an unparrelled smallness of profit, anti thls wlli enable those residing at a distance from London, to procure the best qmlity of Teas at very near the same prices they are now paying for the worxt. and so afford them all the advantages which the London consumers possess, who purchase from the direct source of supply. J 0 carry this into effect, so as to be most advantageous and most convenient, we shall be happy to put up the Tea for those families who may unite together in favouring us with an order in parcels containing any quantity they may desire, and if re- quired,the ordtrs of shopkeepers will be packed incases contain- ing two ounces and so on to a pound upwards. COFFEES. As we are those on whom the honour devolved of carrying out the philanthropic measures of Government, in the recent Re- duction of the Duties on Coffee, we are determined to maintain unequalled our character for the combination of excellence and cheapness in that article, and thus fulfil the observation of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who, in his financial statement during the last session, announcing a further REDUCTION of f&c" DtlTT~no.tSanp#!1 minst' tif>portanf: to extend The use of a ber(?'r<ige wftich is1 a gTeaftwtury to all classes, and which, in addition, is found to supersede other be- verages detrimental to health." We would now draw attention to the prices of a few Teas and Coffees that we can confidently recommend for general consump. tion, viz.:— Our fine flllt flavoured Black Tea at 4s. per lb. Ourfnll Pekoe and Souchong flavoured Tea at 4s.4d. per lb., and Our finest true rich Congou, at 4s. 6d. per lb., which is an old fashioned fille Tea, such as the East India Company used to bring over. An these Teas will give great and general satisfaction. Cnjfees mellow in ripeness atid richness of flavour at Is 6d. and Is. fci. per tb or 12 lbs. of this choice Coffee, for One Sovereign. As very important 10 the Invalid and General Consumers, we would notice our Perfectly Pure Arrouroot, imported from tlit Island, of Bermuda and Jamaica, without changing, hands. which we sell at a price leaving merely a nominal profit- Bermuda, eighieenpence the Pound Jamaica, tenpence the Pound.. In original Tins of 21bs.,4lbs.. 8lhs., and 14Ibs. The high price, namely 4s. per lb., at which good Arrowroot was formeily sold has hitherto prevented its extensive usefulness. All purchasers of 301b. of Tea will be allowed a pound more what IIIPV nat for being the trade overweight. All Goods^11 be delivered CARRIAGE FREE.. 4s no orders can be attended to unless accompanied by a resectable reference or remittance, we would slgest that pay- ment be made in the following manner:-when tne goods do not amount to more than £ 5. in value, by post-office order, when exceeding that sum. bv half-notes, or banker s order.

The Urate of the London Manure Company, FOR TURNIPS, CARROTS, AND ALL OTHER SPRING CROPS. AT the Rutland Agricultural Society*ar Meeting, in 1S42 the first prize for the best five actes Of Swede'turnips 'was awarded to Mr. Wortley, of Ridlinetonj the produce per acre being 27 tons, H cwu, 461bs. At the same meeting, in 1843 Mr. Wortley received the tilst premium for the best twelve roots of Swede turnips. In both instances, Urate was drilled with the turnips. In 1844, Mr. Robert Smith, of Burley, obtained the first prize for the best five acres of Swedish turnips, manured with fifteen loads of farm-yard manure and five cwt. of Urate per acre, being the third vear in succession in which first plizes have been obtained in Rutland by the application of the Urate. At the Bedford.and also at the Leighton Buzzard Agricultural ociety, the two premiums for the best twenty acres of Swede turnips were awarded to Mr. Thomas, of Lidlington the greater portion of which were manured with cwt. of Urate per acre. From the above, it will be seen that the Urate is a most valu- able Manure, seldom failing ro produce, iu the driest season. a good plant, and at the same time beneiftting, to a most important extent, the succeeding crops of Barley or Seeds.

They are fixed from one to a complete set. without, extracting the roots or causing the least pain, and may betaken out and replaced by the wearer with the greatest facility being- incorrodible, they have the superior advantage of never changing- colour or decaving; they are arranged on the most scientific principles, answering most satisfactorily all the purposes of mastication and aiticulation, imparting to the countenance a younger and improved appearance, protecting the adjoining teeth, fastening those that are loose, forming a new gum where the original one has receded, and the teeth remaining perfectly secure in their places. Specimens of these beautiful Teeth may be viewed daily at Mons.

Mr. Thomas B.

Mr. Walker opposed the rate, and moved the adjournment of the question to tbat day six months; Mr. Jolly seconded the amendment. On a division the rate was negatived by an overwhelming majority. Mr. Colvitle proposed. aDd Mr. Walker most willingly approved of, a collection being made to pay the C297. 15s. 10d. Several other parishioners also acquiesced in the proposition.

ATTEMPTED PREVENTION or PUBLIC WORSHIP.—In conse- quence of some differences of opinIon upon doctrinal subjects existing between the Trustees of the Welsh Independent Chape), Ebenezer-street, in this town, and Mr. Jacob, the minister, to- gether with the rest of the church, the former, some time since. sent Mr. Jacob a written notice, desiring him to give up his pulpit. at they bad appointed hit successor. This Mr. Jarob declined doing, en the ground that the great majority of the church, at whose invitation he had consented to become their pastor, were still in favour of his remaining and he maintained that, if he relinqniahed the pulpit at the bidding of a small sec- tion acting in opposition to the rest of the church, be would be doing so in contravention of the principles of Congregationalism, by which the power of electing a minister is vested in tire ma. jotity of the chnreh. The notice alluded to expired on Sunday last, when the minister and congregation assembled for divine worship at the usual time bufeMo their surprise, fouod that the gates and doors of their chapel bad been locked and chained. They were likewise informed that the trustees bad adopted this measure under professional edvice. Rather then resort to the expedient of forcibly entering the chapel, the congregation deter- mined upon holding the service in the open air, opposite the meetiog-boase, where all the proceedings were conducted with the greatest propriety and decorum. It is thought that the affair will ultimately lead to a suit in Chancery. Mr. Bailey, the eminent sculptor, has lately been in Bristol to make anangemeBts previous to executing a monumental statue of the late P. J. Miles, Esq., which is about being erected by his family to his memory in the chancel of Leigh Church. It will be remembered that William Long, the huntsman of his Grace the Duke of Beaufort, was presented with a piece of plate about twelve months ago. The gentlemen meeting with the Duke have now come forward to the number of about 270, with subscriptions to present the Whippers-in with a piece of plate each, tor their very civil and energetic conduct in the field.

SUGAR Donts.—GOVERNMENT Dn.RMatA.—A demand hot been made by the Spanish ministers in London, under the treatv of Utrecht, That sugar, the growth of the colonies of SpaiD, should be admitted into this country on the same terms as that of Venezuela, aDd of other countries which have gained access to our msrkets by the most fsvoured nation 11 clause. Her i Majesty's ministers have conceded the claim. It could not, indeed, by any possibility be resisted. So, then, the sUve-grown sugar* of Cuba-where slavery is most rsmpsnt and revolting 1 will come into consumption in this country. The war, therefore, of the tugar duties is at an end for Brszilian sugar, surely, can never be excluded, while Cuba is admitted.

In the Mining Journal, of the 7th test., we gave a tabu- let statement of the number of furnaces in existence and in ope- ration, from which it will be seen tbat, up to the end of May, the total number of fnrnacee in Scotland was 91, of which 76 were in and 16 out of blast. We now fiod, from the following ► table, that up to the ead of June there are 99 built, 12 building, and 90 in blast, being an enormous increase ia so short a time, I snd fully prove that there exist cspabilities for increasing the f make of iron in proportion to the demand, to an extent which t some of our contemporaries have deemed impossible. We have seen it asserted, that not another furnace could be blown in 1 within twelve months yet here we have an additional num- her at work, capable of producing several hundred tons of pig- r iroa per week. That an enormous and cootinuslly-increasing demsnd for i-on, for all the great engineering works proposed, I most take place, there is no doubt; but we do think that it will be fouod that there it capital aDd enterprine among the iron was- ters equal to the emergency. It is the system of speculating on the demand, buying for tbe account, and not the demand itself, which has caused so much of the unpleasant consequences which have, of late years, at intervals marked the iron trade. Were all transactions bond fide sales, and would the smaller makers aban- don the often ruinous practice of taking large orders, which it i not io their power to execute, the iron trade would be as steady as a01 branch of commercial business—paying a good per ceolag for the capital invested, and tupporting a very large amount ol the working population in comfort and content.
