In the course of last Saturday, though too late for
insertion in our first edition, we received from the correspondent who supplied us with information respecting the Report of the Irish Railway Commission, and whose statement was nunlestly foul veraciously denied by the Mont- hly Chronicle, circumstantial eorrolsoration, that in every important regard that statement was correct. It in unnecessary, however, to give in detail the cirelimstances mentioned by Burr correspondent, as we find in the Northern Whig of 13elfast. received this morning, positive con- firmation of the main fact as stated in the Spectator of the 7th. The article in the Belfast paper is in all probattility by the proprietor, Mr. FIN!. AY. who was lately in London.
