BROMLEY'S PATENT EMPIRE SOAP,
which heretofore has been difficult to be obtained, as very
few of the grocers will keep it. To use their own words, by way
of explanation, they state,---" Were we to buy it, it would reduce
our mks fully one third,. as two pounds of the Empire Soap will
go as-far as three pounds of any other soap ;we should also lose
our profit on soda and washing powders, as neither of these
articles are required when the Empire Soap is used, in either the
hardest wafer or in sea wafer." What the grocersare displeased
at in, this soap is its strongest recommendation to the notice of
the large consumers, private families, hotel keepers, laundresses,
&c... It only requires tabs used with a light hued.. And besides
the above advantage it saves half the usual labour, consequentlylea's friction and wear, in the clothes, and will ;Kit injure the
colours in the most delicate prints ; and is eqwilly valuable for
every other domestic purpose, even for toilet use, as it is a pure
soap, free from rosin, and other useless ingredients, which not
only add unnecessary weight to the soap but detract from its
cleansing properties.
To be had wholesale at the Works, No. 22i Cherry-lane, and
from the followin&dealers:—Mr: Edward Davies, chandler, No.
84, London-road ;-_Mr. John Dixon, grocer, No. 48, Pembroke;

seeks to close the hostile undertaking in such a
way as will neither humiliate nor weaken Russia.
Having settled in his own mind that the inva-
sion of the Crimea was a blunder, he proceeds,
with a degree of coolness similar to that required
in demonstrating a geometrical problem, to criti-
cise, and, in many points, condemn the disposi-
tions of the Allies at the battle of Alma. He ad-
mits that the celebrated " flank march' after that
battle was well made, but thinks itwas, ina military
sense, a mistake. General Klapka, in common
with many other military authorities, censures
the impropriety of attempting the siege of Se-
bastopol without a full investment of the place,
and expresses a conviction that, had the fortifica-
tions been boldly assaulted when the Allies first
came before it, it must have yielded to the blow.
As his observations on such a subject are entitled
to considerable weight, we submit the annexed

ACT OP BENEVOLENCE.—Many of our readers will regret
to learn that Mr. Edward Gray, who has grown old in the
service of the parish, and in whom the public had one of the
best servants that ever lived, lies in a very precarious state at
his residence, Tue-brook, so precarious that his life is in great
jeopardy. He labours under two most distressing maladies—
dropsy and disease of the heart, and, at his time of life, recovery
from such an attack is hardly to be looked for. * * ' On
one occasion he solicited a pecuniary loan from Mr. William
Rathbone. Hearing of his indisposition, Mr. Rathbone, with
his customary philanthropy, called to see and to solace the old
gentleman in his sufferings. Mr. Gray's attendant informed
Mr. Rathbone, in a private and subdued manner, that the in-
valid was extremely distressed in his mind respecting this loan.
Give me ink and paper," said Mr. Rathbone, and he wrote a
discharge for the amount, £170; leaving at the same time a
cheque for £l3O, to soothe the sick man's sufferings. Acts of
this kind are of daily occurrence in the life of Mr. Rathbone,
and the only person who will feel any annoyance at the pub-
lication of this noble act will be the benefactor

LORD PALMERSTON AT MELBOURNE.
-C>----
TUB arrival of Lord and Lady Palmerston at Melbourne
Hall, on Thursday afternoon, was the occasion of demon-
strative proceedings on the part of great numbers of the
inhabitants, who lined the road along which his Lordship
passed to the mansion.
On Friday Lord Palmerston received a deputation charged
with an address, congratulating his Lordship on the happy
coincidence that the visit of himself and Lady Palmerston to
the dwelling•place of her Ladyship's ancestors should be
marked by an event which shed so much lustre on the admi-
nistration of which he was the head. After dwelling on the
glory and success which had crowned the efforts of Lord Pal-
merston and his colleagues, the address concluded with the
expression of wishes for the personal happiness and health of
his Lordship and Lady Palmerston.
In reply, his lordship said that having come there upon pri-
vate business, and for only one day's inkr ,ral from business of
a public and therefore more important nature, he was not pre-
pared for such a reception as that now given him. Having
uttered a few sentences in acknowledgment of the compliment
paid him, his lordship proceeded to speak on the subject of the
war.
We have (said his lordship) struck a heavy blow at an enemy
whose aggressive policy threatened the whole ivorld, and par-
ticularly the interests of this country. We have sustained
great losses ; but it is a consolation to those who have lost
relatives and friends in this contest in support of liberty against
despotism, that their names will be enrolled in the annals
of fame, and will be associated with the imperishable glories
of their country. And great as our losses are, lamentable as
all feel them to be, we know that the losses of the enemy are
infinitely greater; and though the war has been undoubtedly
attended with losses and privations on our part, if we give cre-
dit to the information derived from various sources we have the
satisfaction of knowing that those losses and those privations are
surpassed in magnitude by those against whom we are patrioti-
cally contending. Final success must attend our arms. Our se-
curity for that arises in the undaunted valour of our troops and
those of our allies. We have a security also in the good faith of
the Emperor of the French, who is with us heart and soul in
this contest. We have an additional security in the alliance of
the kingdom of Sardinia, and history reminds us that small
states have played an important stake in the world. We re-
member the part played by Holland, by Venice, by Genoa—
smaller states, territorially, than the kingdom of Sardinia.
Well, then, with this prospect before us—with the valour of
our troops in unison with the troops of the Emperor of France
—nations that have laid aside ancient antagonisms, and who
are now actuated by no other feelings but an honourable
rivalry as brothers in arms, fighting for a common cause,
bound together by the indissoluble ties of Friendship, and act-
ing in the truest spirit of good faith—and above and before
all, relying upon the justice of our cause, it is impossible to
believe that the war can be brought to any other conclusion
than that which will secure to Europe safety against the fu-
ture aggressions of Russia—a peace that shall not only be
honourable and satisfactory to the allies, but which shall re-
dound to the honour and interests of the country, and justify
the great sacrifices by which such a peace shall have been at-
tained.
The speech was received very warmly by those to whom it
was addressed, and, on the conclusion of the proceedings, three
times three cheers were given for Lady Palmerston, who
bowed her acknowledgments.
BRITISH ASSOCIATION.—The twenty-fifth annual meeting
of the British Association for the Advancement of Science com-
menced on Wednesday, in Glasgow, being the second time the
association has met in that city, the former being in 1840.
The general meeting met in the Merchants'-hall, and amongst
those present were Prince Lucien Bonaparte, the Earl of
Harrowby, (who presided,) Count FrBlich, (from Sweden,) and
Sir R. J. Murchison. The report of the council was read; it
noticed the probability of various scientific societies being
located in London at the public expense, in Burlington-house,
Piccadilly. The report was received, and the various officers
appointed to the different sections. The treasurer's report
showed a balance of revenue on hand of £Bl7, and that the
property of the association was estimated at £6,002, and its
it
liabilities at £647. At 5 o'clock the Lord Provost gave an

CARROTS FOR MILK Cows.---I have tried feeding
carrots to milk cows, and will give you one of my
experiments. I have (April 15) seven cows in milk
--;one calved in June, the rest in September and Oc-
tober. I raised 80 bushels rutabages and 400 bushels
carrots, and fed them to my cows, commencing the Ist
of December. I gave them about 2* bushels per day,
at noon, the rutabages first, and when they were all
fed out,'the same quantity of carrots. I found when
I had fed the latter a few days, that my cows were each
giving from two to three pints of milk more per day,
than when fed on rutabages. I was feeding my cows,
meanwhile with cut hay ; and 21bs. oilcake and meal,
and Webs. wheat screenings, ground. The thought
of
struck me that I should like to know the
vallL
carrots, for making milk, so I selected the eovi 7,
calved last for the trial. I weighed the haY,,11;91,
and carrots, and fed 271bs. of hay, 4lbs. raileult. of
and 221bs. of carrots, and she gave 351bs. ofin'ot
day. I then left off the carrots and gave the iiic
amount of meal, and all the hay she would eat, `r4 1
was 331bs. per day. After feedinc, so for a w ,'ct
found she gave 231bs. of milk per feeding theefot
her the carrots as before, and in eight or ten,cl3lslloo
came up again to 351bs. of milk per day. This is pe
that carrots are worth to me to feed cows 82 cello
1 lbs. Hay is worth 20 dollars per ton in the
and at three cents per quart, or one cent per P°l eil

CONSEQUENCES OF NEGLECT.—There is, perhaps, no part
of the body that ought to be more interesting to us than the teeth,
and yet there is also none which is more generally neglected.
Were a little ordinary attention devoted to these organs, we should
no longer find toothache and other diseases of the mouth so pre-
valent; nor would our senses be affected by offensive breath and
similar disagreeable concomitants. Art, however, is here neces-
sary to assist nature; and in such case it is that a preparation
like Rowland's Odonto becomes peculiarly advantageous as an
infallible preservative of those indispensable attributes of beauty,
the teeth and gums, in balmy fragrance, freshness and beauty.—

the Gout was considered a romance ; but now, the efficacy and
safety of this medicine is so fully demonstrated by unsolicited
testimonials from persons in every rank of life, that public
opinion proclaims BLAIR'S PILLS as one of the most important
discoveries of the present age; and in testimony of its efficacy,
JOHN J. GILES, Esq , of Pritnley, near Bagsbot, says:—" Having
suffered much from acute Rheumatism, I was induced to try your
Blair's Pills, and beg to bear my testimony to their efficacy."
Mr. WILLIAM COURTNEY, of Barton Stacey, Hants, says
" Having suffered much from Gout, I had resort to Blair's Pills,
and within two hours I was quite easy. The use of these Pills
ought really to be known all over the world."
Mr. W. TAYLOR, bookseller, Warminster, Wilts, writes :
"Wm. Penny, of Corton, Wilts was afflicted with Rheumatism,
to such an extent that he could not move hand or foot ; he was
recommended by a gentleman to try Blair's Pills, and accordingly
procured a box at Mr. Taylor's, from which he derived so much
benefit, that he sent for another, which effected a complete cure."
GARRETT FOSTER GILL, Esq., 157, New Bond-street, London,
writes :—" Whenever I feel any symptoms of Gout approaching,
I have instant recourse to this medicine, which to me is so valua-
ble that, were it not that the days of magic have ceased, I should
certainly attribute the relief I obtain to that cause. Moreover, I
rejoice to say that my health has not in any degree suffered ; but
on the contrary, I believe the tendency of Blair's Pills is towards
its improvement."
These Pills require neither attention nor confinement, and are
certain to prevent the disease attacking any vital part ; and in
consequence of the great and increasing demand for this useful
Medicine, the Proprietor has obtained permission from Her Ma-
esty's Commissioners of Stamps to have the name and address of
"THOMAS PROUT, 229, Strand, London," impressed upon the
Government Stamp, affixed to each Box of the Genuine Medicine

THE MIRACULOUS REMEDY!!!
HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT.
TEN YEARS' INTERMITTENT ATTACKS OF ERYSIPELAS
EFFECTUALLY CURED.
Copy of a Letter from Mrs. IL Trimmer, of Compton,
near Winchester, dated lath Sept., 1853.
To Professor Holloway.—Sir' —I suffered, for a period of ten
years (until the last six months) with the most dreadful inter-
mittent attacks of Erysipelas, which confined me to my bed
during the whole of the summer months in each year. I consulted
the most eminent medical gentlemen in Winchester, but was
from time to time doomed to be disappointed in my hopes of
obtaining any relief to my sufferings, although I complied strictly
with the directions my advisers gave me. At length I was per-
suaded to give your Ointment and Pills a trial by a female friend
who bad been cured of a bad leg by using them ; to my surprise
and delight, a change for the better was quicklyproduced, and In
a very short time they caused the Erysipelas totally to disappear.
and my health was entirely resuscitated, which has remained good
ewer since.—l am, &c., (Signed (HARRIET TRIMMER.
ASTOUNDING CURE OF SCROFULA.
Wm. Pogue, of Emyvale (a man well known in that neighbour.
hood), was afflicted for three years pith Scrofula on the left arm :
there were four ulcers which discharged continuously, and reduced
the poor fellow to a mere skeleton. He was for a long time under
the care of one medical gentleman, and consulted many others.
but derived no benefit whatever. At last he had recourse to
Holloway's Ointment and Pills, and by persevering with these
remedies, in the course of eight weeks his arm was completely
well, and his health thoroughly reestablished.—The truth of this
statement can be verified by many of the inhabitants of Emyvale,
and particularly by Mr. Patrick McKenna, druggist, of that place.
ASTONISHING CURE OF AN ULCERATED LEG AFTER
THREE HOSPITALS FAILED!
Copy of a Letter from Hr. W. Hare, of Exeter, dated
22nd September, 1854.
To ProfessorHolloway,—A man named Win. Hall, in the employ
of Mr. C. Sclater, nurseryman, of this city, has desired me to make
known to you the benefit he has received from using your Oint-
ment and Pills. For three years this poor man suffered terrible
with a severely ulcerated leg, and during this time he sought
relief at Guy's, King's College, and the Devon and Exeter Hos-
pitals, and was finally told by a Surgeon that amputation of the
limb was necessary to save his life ; however, instead of this
advice, he immediately had recourse to your Ointment and Pills,
and they have done him more good than all the other medicines
put together, he being now able to follow his occupation, and
rapidly gaining health and strength,—l remain, &c.,

PAINS IN THE BACK, GRAVEL,
LUMBAGO, RHEUMATISM, GOUT, HEADACHE,
NERVOUSNESS. DEBILITY, &c.
DR. DE ROOS' COMPOUND RENAL PILLS (as their
name Renal, or the Kidneys, indicates) have been long established
as a most safe and speedy remedy for the above dangerous
complaints, Discharges of any kind, and Diseasesof the Kidneys
and organs therewith connected generally, &c.,which, if neglected,
frequently end in a lingering painful death. For Depression of
Spirits, Excitement, Dislike of Society, Incapacity for Study or
Business, Loss of Memory, Confusion, Giddiness, Blood to the
Head, Drowsiness, Sleep without refreshment, Nervousness, and.
even Insanity itself, they are unequalled. Possessing tonic pro-
perties, they agree with the most delicate stomach, strengthen
the digestive organs, increase the appetite, and improve the gene-
ral imam'. They require neither confinement nor change of diet,
and in three days will effect a cure when mercury and all other
dangerous medicines have failed. One trial will convince the most
sceptical of their surprising properties.
Mr. Letellier, Etruria, Potteries.—." Your Renal Pills have done
wonders with me and others to whom I have recommended them."
11. C. Post-office, Stafford.--" Your Renal Pills are a moss
splendidmedicine.,,
J. Murphy, 70, Upper Sterin-street, Dublin.—" I never met the
like of them before, they are really a surprising medicine.".
W. Chartres, Esq., Newport, Mayo.—" I have a degree of mental energy and vigour such as I did not feel these two years. Mx
memory is wonderfully improved, so that I can recollect all the events of each day with the greatest degree of clearness. It is
astonishing how 1 got out of such awful sufferings, lyt I think I
owe it altogether to the use of your Pills."
PERSONS GOING ABROAD, CAPTAINS and OTHERS. can-
not store more important articles of health than the above, which,
by regulating the Stomach and Bowels, and tranquillizing the
Nervous System, will prevent those fatal diseases so prevalent
abroad, as also Sea Sickness and other complaints incidental to
long voyages and irregular living. No Emigrant's Chest can
be properly furnished without them, for when far removed from
medical aid, they will find in these Pills a never-failing restorative.
IMPORTANT.—The immense demand for the above has induced
an unscrupulous person to imitate them, and to assume the name
of De Roos. Some unprincipled Vendors, when asked for Dr.
DE Roos PILLS, have attempted to foist upon the public the spu-
rious Medicines or trash of thei rown compounding, from which they
obtain a larger protit. The GENUINE have the words, " WALTER
DE ROOS, LONDON," in white letters on a red ground, printed
in the Stamp affixed to each box; by special direction of Her
Majesty's Honourable Commissioners, to protect the Public from
Fraud, and to imitate which is felony.
May be obtained through all Medicine Vendors, at Is. lid.,
25. 9d., 4s. 6d., Ils., and 335. per Box, with full directions for
use; or by enclosing Post-office Order or Stamps to Dr. DE
ROOS, 10, BERNERS-STREET, OXFORD-ST., LONDON, they
will be sent per return. At home for consultation daily from 11
till 4 o'clock, Sunday excepted. Advice and Medicines

allowed a liberal Commission, may make handsome addition to
their income by selling these Pills, which are very justly becoming
avourite Medicine with the Public.
OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND'S AMERICAN
SARSAPARILLA.—This is one of the most extraordinary
and valuable Medicines in the world. Its superiority over other
preparations of like character, made in this country, arises from
the mode of manufacture, and the advantage of obtaining and
working the root in its green and fresh state. The root, when
brought to this country, is dry, vapid, and almost tasteless, its
virtues and juices having all evaporated; while it often becomes
mouldy, musty, and partially decayed, so that it is quite unfit for
use. ENGLISH TESTIMONY.
We give a few of the many communications we have received
since we have been in England, from those who have experienced
the great benefits of using this celebrated medicine. They must
have some weight in convincing the public of its great value.
49, Davies-street, Berkeley-squere, Sept. 1,1851.
Gentlemen.—l have much pleasure in testifying to the nume-
rous thanks I have received from various persons who have taken
Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, many of whom will be
happy to give you testimonials should you require them. I am
doubly pleased to be able to speak to the good effects I have seen
myself produced by the Sarsaparilla ; for I must confess that,
although I was not prejudicial, I was rather sceptical as to its
virtues, which I would not have believed it possessed, bad I not
seen it.—l am, your obedient servant, JOHN JAMIESON.
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co.
FURTHER IMPORTANT TBSTIMONY.—OREATCURE OF PILES.
17, Phelps-street. Walworth, Feb. and9s3.
Gentlemen,—l was afflicted with the blind Piles, was under
medical treatment for three months, but obtained no relief.
Hearing of Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, I obtained
some, and, after taking it a short time, the accumulated corrupt
matter copiously discharged, and I almost immediately obtained
relief. I still continued its use for a time, and not only found
relief, but a cure, and am now free from pain. I most sincerely
recommend it to all who are similarly affected. Was. HYDE.
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co.
8, Ashley-terrace, City-road, London, June 9, 1852.
GENTLEMEN,—PIease send me again three quart bottles of Old
or. Townsend's Sarsaparilla. I feel much better, and the general
system greatly improved, and I hope I shall be all right with the
three now ordered.—Yours very respectfully, JOHN W. MUNCH.
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co., 373, Strand.
William Wearn, 1, High-street, Southsea, writes, "I have taken
several bottles of Old Townsend's Sarsaparilla, and
derived benefit
from it." Rev. J. W. Wilson, Wesleyan Minister, at Bigglesvrade,
writes, June 7, 1852, " I have derived much benefit from taking
Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla."
FEMALE COMPLAINTS.—OREAT CURE OF NERVOUSNESS.
London, June 10, 1852.
Gentlemen,—My wife has been long afflicted with a nervous
complaint, from which she suffered severely. Able physicians and
many remedies were tried in vain, but I am happy to inform you
that she has entirely recovered by using a few bottles of Old Dr.
Townsend's Sarsaparilla.
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co. J. R. PETERSON.
PIMPLES, BLOTCHES, ERUPTIONS, &c.
The same may be said of these as in the cure of the severer
chronic maladies •, the Sarsaparilla and the Ointment will effec-
tually wipe off all disagreeable eruptions, and render the surface
clear and beautiful. Ladies troubled with rough, pimply skin, or
a gross, masculine surface, will do well to use these Medicines, if
they wish clear, delicate, and transparent complexions. Nothing
can exceed their efficacy in this respect.
CURE OF A DISORDERED STOMACH.
Lower Grosvenor-street, Grosvenor-square, July 31, 1851.
Gentlemen,—l beg to inform you that 1 have been using your
Medicine, Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla, for a complaint in my sto-
mach, from which I suffered a long time, and I am happy to say
it has cured me. I shall to answer any letter of inquiry, as your
Sarsaparilla is worthy of all the recommendation I can give it.

CHESHIRE AND WALES.
THE ANNUAL MEETING and show of stock will be held at
Ruthin. on Thursday, the 27th inst. The main ploughing
will take place in a field near the town of Ruthin, at nine in
the morning.
CHESTER CHEESE FAIR.—At the Sept. fair on Wednesday
there was an average supply of cheese for the time of year.
There were many buyers on the ground, and the sale was very
brisk, and prices ranging from 50s. to 605., 685., 725. and 735.
ON TUESDAY, Patrick Kelly, a labourer employed at the
Birkenhead graving docks, fell a distance of about 30 feet and
sustained very severe general contusions. He was taken to
the Dispensary, where be yet remains in a very precarious
state.
ON TUESDAY, Thomas Meek was taken before Sir E. Cust,
on a charge of having embezzled various sums of money, the
property of Mr. Robert Hughes, house agent. He was re-
manded. On Thursday he was again brought up and dis-
charged.
CHESTER CATTLE FAIR.—A few fat cattle were shown,
which sold at 7d. ; not much mutton on offer. Sheep 7d. A
large number of store sheep were on sale, but did not change
hands readily, as high prices were asked, and many remained
unsold. Fat pigs fetched from 511 to 6d. ; store pigs were
also very dear.
AN INQUEST was held at Egremont on Thursday, on the
body of a child which had been washed ashore. A verdict of
found drowned was returned, but since the inquest certain
facts have transpired, from which there is reason to believe
that some further investigation will be made in the matter.
The child was full grown, and when found was wrapped in
some pieces of cloth.
PENMON, ANGLESEA.—The ancient and most interesting
church at this place has just been restored, in good and cor-
rect taste, under the auspices of Sir R. W. Bulkeley, Bart.,
and the zealous and indefatigable rector of the parish, the
Rev. P. Constable Ellis. It is to be re-opened, we learn, to-
morrow ; and as a sum of nigh £2OO is still wanted to clear off
the expenses incurred, some exertion should be made to raise it.
FATAL ACCIDENT.—On Wednesday, a child, five years old,
named Joseph Welsh, residing in Albion-street, was run over
by the Oxton omnibus. He was playing in the street, and
got too near the vehicle, one of the wheels of which passed
over his thigh and fractured it. He was taken to the hospital,
where he died the same night. It was considered that no
blame rested upon the driver.
FALL OF SEEISTOPOL.—The glorious news of the fall of
Sebastopol was received in Chester with every loyal demon-
stration of joy ; the bells of the cathedral and the other
churches rang out animating peals ; flags were displayed at
the Exchange and other public buildings, and many private
residences also "hung out their banners on the outer walls ;"
while each man congratulated his neighbour on the welcome
intelligence.—Chester Courant.
HIGHER BEBINGTON.—At the special general meeting of
the ratepayers of Higher Bebington, held for the purpose of
appointing an assistant overseer to fill up the vacancy oc-
casioned by the flight of Mr. John Dakin, jun., two candidates
were proposed, Robert Dobson and Richard Oxton. A poll
took place, which resulted in the election of Mr. Dobson, by a
majority of 52 persons and 114 votes.
A CHILD BIIRNED.—On Friday afternoon, Sarah Murray,
who resides with her parents in Leicester-street, Birkenhead,
was putting some shavings on the fire, when her clothes be-
came ignited, and she was very severely burned about the
chest. She was removed to the Infirmary, where she is pro-
gressing favourably towards recovery.
THE LATE CRIMINAL CHARGE AT EGREMONT.—It will be
remembered that the application to the local magistrates to
admit James Dalziel to bail, on the charge of having assaulted
Jane Jones, a domestic in the hotel kept by his brother, was
declined. Since then application has been made to the judges,
and on Wednesday a judge's order was received, admitting
the prisoner to bail, himself in £3OO, with two sureties of
£l5O each, or three in £lOO each. On Thursday the bail was
tendered and accepted.
CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD RAILWAY.—The traffic for the
week ended September 9th, 1855, was as follows :—Passengers,
parcels, &c., £4,103 2s. 4d.; steam-boats, £527 ss. 10d; goods,
£2,102 lls. 11d.; total, including Carnarvon traffic, £6,793
Os. ld. Corresponding week last year : —Passengers, parcels,
&c., £4,009 Bs. ld. ; steam-boats, £558 16s. 4d. ; goods,
£1,582 9s. 7d.; total, including Carnarvon traffic, £6,149
Od. Increase, £613 Os. ld.
THE HARVEST IN NORTH WILES.—The harvest in the
various counties of North Wales is rapidly being gathered
during the present magnificent weather, and there is every
probability that the season this year will be an unusually short
one. In the more forward districts the major portion has been
housed, while upon the hills and later districts operations will
soon commence. There is no doubt that the yield of all cereals
will be a very abundant one, and the grain is full, firm, and
very sound, More cheering harvest weather could not be
imagined, and the farmers have taken every advantage of it.
THE AREA OF THE DIOCESE or CHESTER.—From a
schedule appended to the last report on cathedral and colle-
giate churches, it appears that in the diocese of Chester the
population numbers over a million of souls, that its area in
acres is one and a-half million, and that its ecclesiastical bene-
fices are 4:36. The diocese of Manchester has the largest po-
pulation of any see save that of London, and the acreage of
York is tha most extensive with the same exception.
AWFULLY SUDDEN DEATM-A gentleman named Ro-
binson, a resident of Liverpool, making a tour through Wales
for the benefit of his health, arrived at the Uxbridge Arms
Hotel, Carnarvon, on Thursday evening, having travelled in
a carriage, accompanied by a friend and a servant, from Con-
way. About eleven o'clock the same night he was attacked
with apoplexy, and expired in a few minutes. His body,
placed in a coffin, and enclosed in a box, was conveyed to
Liverpool the following morning by steamer.— Carnarvon
Herald.
. .
day morning, the 7th inst., the inhabitants of the Bute dis-
t”lot of the town of efirdiff were alarmed by a loud explosion,
which turned out to have been occasioned by an explosion of
steam coal on board of a Dutch vessel, called the Jacob
Hunger, which was lying in the port preparatory to her sail-
ing. The force of the explosion tore up and shattered the
decks, throwing fragments of the woodwork to considerable
distances, and actually hurling the anchor overboard into the
water. The captain was very much burned about the head
face, &c., and the first mate was also scorched considerably.
CONGLETOY.—The Lord Mayor of London, Sir Francis
Moon, being on a visit to Mr. Thomas Johnson of Buglaton, the
people of Congleton seized upon the opportunity as a favour-
able one for the exercise of hospitality, and invited his Lord-
ship to an entertainment of cakes and sack at the Town-hall
at two o'clock on Friday. His Lordship arrived at the Town-
hall at the appointed hour, and was introduced to the Council-
room, when, in the absence of the Mayor from family affliction,
Alderman Hogg presided. After an introductory speech from
the chairman, Alderman Goods proposed, and Alderman Sut-
ton seconded, the presentation of an address to the Lord Mayor,
which proposition being unanimously approved, the address was
read and suitably acknowledged by his Lordship. The cor-
poration and guest then adjourned to the Assembly-rooms,
where a handsome collation was prepared, consisting of the
time-honoured cakes of Congleton, and dessert wines.

HOSPITALITY OF THE RITSSIANS.—The Russians in
general are very hospitable; and in the country, where
they lead a very solitary monotonous life, are glad to
see any one who can procure them a little variety, as
they have no sources of amusement whatever except
shooting or coursing ; but when a man is not a
sportsman, even these fail him, for books are very
rare, very expensive, and not very interesting, on ac-

SUPPLEMENT TO THE LIVERPOOL STAN
108
which bewilder a student in a great bookseller's
temptation-hall ?
How easily one may distinguish a genuine lover
of books from the worldly man ! With what
subdued and yet glowing enthusiasm does he gaze
upon the costly front of a thousand embattled
volumes ! How gently he draws them down as if
they were little children ; how tenderly he handles
them ! He peers at the title-page, at the text, or
the notes, with the nicety of a bird examining a
flower. He studies the binding ; the leather—
Russia, English, calf, morocco ; the lettering, the
gilding, the edging, the hinge of the cover ! He
opens it and shuts it, he holds it off and brings it
nigh. It suffuses his old body with book-mag-
netism. He walks up and down in a maze, at
the mysterious allotments of Providence that gives
so much money to men who spend it upon their
appetites, and so little to men who would spend
it in benevolence, or upon their refined taste !
It is astonishing, too, how one's necessities mul-
tiply in the presence of the supply. One is sur-
prised to perceive, at some bazaar or fancy and
variety store, how many conveniences he needs.
He is satisfied that his life must have been utterly
inconvenient aforetime. And thus, too, he is in-
wardly convicted, at Appletons's, of having lived
for years without books which he is now satisfied
that one cannot live without.
Then, too, the subtle process by which the man
convinces himself that he can afford to buy. No
subtle manager or broker ever saw through a
maze of financial embarrassments half so quick as
a poor book-buyer sees his way clear to pay for
what he must have. He promises with himself
marvels of retrenchment—he will eat less, or
drink less costly viands, that he may buy more
food for the mind. He will take an extra patch,
and go on with his raiment another year and buy
books instead of coats. Yes, he will write books
that he may buy books. He will lecture, teach,
trade ; he will do any honest thing for money to
buy books ! The appetite is insatiable. Feeding
does not satisfy it. It rages by the fuel which is
put upon it. As a hungry man eats first, and
pays afterward, so the book-buyer purchases, and
then works at the debt afterward. The paying
is rather medicinal. It cures for a time. But a
relapse takes place. The same longing, the
same promises of self-denial. He promises him-
self to put spurs on both heels of his industry ;
and then, besides all this, he will somehow get
along when the time for payment comes ! Ah !
this somehow ! That word is as big as a whole
world, and is stuffed with all the vagaries and
fantasies that fancy ever bred upon hope. And
yet, is there not some comfort in buying books to
be paid for ? We have heard of a sot, who wished
his neck as long as the worm of a still that he
might so much the longer -enjoy the flavour of
the draught!! Thus it is a prolonged excitement
of purchase, if you feel for six months in a slight
doubt whether the book is honestly your own or
not. Had you paid down that would have been
the end of it. There would have been no affec-
tionate and beseeching look of your books at you,
every time you saw them, saying, as plain as a
book's eyes can say, " Do not let me be taken
from you."
Moreover, buying books before you can pay for
them promotes caution. You do not feel quite at
liberty to take them home. You are married.
Your wife keeps an account book. She knows to
a penny what you can and what you cannot
afford. She has no " speculation " in her eyes.
Plain figures make desperate work with airy
" somehow." It is a matter of no small skill and
experience to get your books home, and into their
proper places undiscovered. Perhaps the blunder-
ing express brings them to the door just at evening,
" What is it, my dear ?" she says to you.
"0, nothing—a few books that I cannot do
without."
That smile ! A true housewife that loves her
husband can smile a whole arithmetic at him in
one look ! Of course she insists, in the kindest
way, in sympathising with you in your literary
acquisition. She cuts the strings of the bundle
(and of your heart) and out comes the whole story.
You have bought a complete set of costly English
books, full bound in calf, extra gilt ! You are
caught, and feel very much as if bound in calf
yourself, and admirably lettered.
Now, this must not happen frequently. The
books must be smuggled home. Let them be
sent to some near place. Then, when your wife
has a headache, or is out making a call, or has
lain down, run the books across the frontier and
threshold, hastily undo them, stop only for one
loving glance as you put them in the closet, or
behind other books on the shelf. Clear away the
twine and wrapping-paper, and every suspicious
circumstance. Be very careful not to be too kind.
That often brings on detection. Only the other
day we heard it said, somewhere,
" Why, how good you have been lately. lam
really afraid that you have been carrying on mis-
chief secretly."
" Our heart smote us. It was a fact. That
very day we had bought a few books which we
could not do without.' After a while, you can
bring out one volume, accidentally, and leave it
on the table."
" Why, my dear, what a beautiful book ! where
did you borrow it ?"
You can glance over the newspaper, with the
quietest tone you can command.
" That ! oh that is mine. Have you not seen
it before ? It has been in the house these two
months"—and you rush on with anecdote and
incident, and point out the binding, and tkpecu-
liar trick of gilding, and everything else-3= can
think of ; but it all will not do—you cannot rub
out that roguish, arithmetical smile. People may
talk about the equality- of the sexes ! They are
not equal. The silent smile of a sensible, loving
woman, will vanquish ten men. Of course you
repent, and in time form a habit of repenting.
Another method which will be found peculiarly
effective is, to make a present of some fine work
to your wife. Of course, whether she or you
have the name of buying it, it will go into your
collection, and be yours to all intents and pur-
poses. But it stops remark in the presentation.
A wife could not reprove you for so kindly think-
ing of her. No matter what she suspects, she
will say nothing. And then if there are three or
more works, which have come with the gift-book,
they will pass through the favour of the other.
These are pleasures denied to wealth and old
bachelors. Indeed, one cannot imagine the pecu-
liar pleasure of buying books, if one is rich and
stupid. There must be some pleasure, or so many
would not do it. But the full flavour, the whole
relish of delight, only comes to those who are so
poor that they must engineer for every book.
They sit down before them, and besiege them.
They are captured. Each book has a secret his-
tory of ways and maims. It reminds you of
subtle devices by which you insured and made it
yours, in spite of poverty !

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1855.
FRO3I OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENT.
MONDAY MORNING-.
THE past week has been a demonstration of nearly frantic
joy throughout the British Isles. Early on Monday last the
of the metropolis were roused to an ecstasy of delight
by receiving intelligence that the Allies, after a severe struggle,
on the preceding Saturday, had obtained the mastery and retained
possession of the Malakhoff Tower and batteries. As every
one had been fully informed that this dominated all the de-
fences of the city, and commanded the batteries on the south
side of the harbour of Sebastopol, no doubt was entertained
that, ere many days were over, the doomed city would be in
full possession of the Allies ; and this conviction afforded uni-
versal delight. Some diminution of the general joy was felt
on account 'of the inexplicit yet conclusive announcement of
General SIMPSON, which merely stated that "The attack of
the English against the Redan did not succeed." While men
of all ranks were anxiously canvassing the meagre brevity of
this ominous intimation, a second communication spread with
lightning speed in all directions, creating such a tumult of
excitement as has not been witnessed in the metropolis for
two-score years at least. The report this time was, that the
Russians, driven to desperation, had abandoned the town of
Sebastopol, and that the whole south side was actually in pos-
session of the Allies. At first the impression created was
that the news was too good to be true; the rumoured capture
of the stronghold immediately after the battle of the Alma
had not ceased to act as a caution on the public mind, and a
fear predominated widely that there was some exaggeration
if not absolute mis-statement in the report. The publication
of the despatches in the evening papers, which were eagerly
devoured, gave an air of stability to the rumour, and when,
about nine o'clock, the Tower guns, as well as those
of St. James's-park, gave utterance to their thundering
notes of victory, the tidings were no longer doubted,
and the people gave themselves up to tumultuary expressions
of delight. At all the theatres the intelligence was communi-
cated to the audiences, by the respective stage managers, and
in each instance cheered till the walls vibrated with the wild
acclaim of joy : the " National Anthem," "Partant pour la
Syrie," " See the conquering Hero comes," being instantly
performed by the orchestras, and re-demanded by the excited
audiences. Joy is rarely niggard in its expression, and as
each delighted individual earnestly and quickly communicated
the welcome news to all he met, a whirling wave of enthusi-
astic happiness was speedily in motion through all the arteries
of mighty and sensitive London. The welcome news was
speedily flashed along the electric wires, and with a speed
which rivals thought the grateful accents of the hymn of
victory were poured into the royal ear in the Highland home
of our beloved Sovereign amidst her domestic circle at Bal-
moral. Ever mindful of her people's pleasure, the QUEEN
caused the gratifying intelligence to be spread as fast as
possible in all directions. Adopting the ancient telegraph of
the country, the joyful tidings were speedily proclaimed by a
vast bonfire kindled or the summit of Craig Gobbain, under
the immediate auspices of Prince ALBERT and the Prince of
WALES, which was replied to by many an answering blaze
from the peaks along Braemar, spreading southwards and
westward through the craggy Grampians, and the rolling
Ochils, till the fiery signal was replied to by the joy-bells of
the Scottish capital. Through every town in England the
news spread and was welcomed with a kindred joy ; and long
before the echoes of the night had died away, the fall of
Sebastopol was known from the Land's End to John O'Groat's ;
and from Dingle-head to Yarmouth. A little before twelve
o'clock the whole concourse of gillies and peasantry descended
from Craig Gobbain, and, assembling before the castle windows
of Balmoral, invoked a blessing on the royal slumbers, finish-
ing with " God save the Queen" as a mountain serenade, and
concluding their lullaby with three stentorian cheers.
The first and gratifying burst of satisfaction over, the sober
inquirer, civilian as well as military, propounds to himself and
to his neighbours the questions, what has been gained by this
decisive stroke of prowess ? What will be its immediate effect
and ultimate result upon the issue of the Crimean campaign
and upon the war itself ? The first question is much more
easily answered than the second. The stronghold of Russian
power in the Black Sea, and in the south of Europe, has been
rescued from the despot's grasp, by the perseverance and ener-
getic bravery of the allied armies after a siege of three hun-
dred and twenty-seven days. After this protracted conflict,
the first great prize of the war has been won. The sanguinary
struggle has ended in a victory, no longer honoured with
merely barren laurels, as the other Crimean victories had been.
In this instance the victors can point to substantial trophies,
which include all the bastions, earthworks, and granite forts
south of the great harbour—the Malakhoff, the Great and
Little Redan, the Flagstaff, the Central Tower, and Quaran-
tine Batteries—the sea defences, including Forts Alexander,
St. Nicholas, and St. Paul; the second line of defence, con-
sisting of the Garden and Barrack Batteries, the dockyard,
harbour, and Careening Bay, together with the full cannon
sweep of Sebastopol Roads. All these are in the hands of the
allies ; but a triumph, probably not inferior in value to all
these, will be found in the entire destruction of the Russian
Black Sea fleet, which has utterly perished. In addition to
all these solid spoils of the conflict, the enemy was compelled
to evacuate the strongholds with a celerity so striking as to
prevent the possibility of his destroying the vast stores of war-
like materiel which had been concentrated in the city. Stores
so vast and valuable to the conquerors, as to have seemingly
bewildered the comprehensive faculties of General PELISSIER,
now created a Marshal, who after a casual inspection of them
writes on Monday, " The imagination would strive in vain to
realise the full extent of our victory ; nothing short of actual
inspection on the spot could supply an idea of the extent and
multiplicity of the works and material means of defence, which
very far surpass all that is recorded in the history of war."
Defences so multiform, and an arsenal so stored, were not
likely to be abandoned by the Russians without a desperate
and a deadly struggle ; and, even when their defenders could
no longer hold them, to quit them in an ordinary evacuation
of the place would have been antagonist to all the policy of
Russian tactics. To destroy what they can neither use nor
carry off, has always been a portion of the military strategy of
Russia, and this was attempted on a large scale in Sebastopol.
Long before the close of the seige operations, Prince GOBI'S-
CHAXorr declared that, if the Allies were ever successful in
capturing Sebastopol, they would find it only a " heap of
blood-stained ruins," and after his defeat in the Malakhoff he
did his utmost to reduce it to that condition. The conflict
was too sharp—the victory too decisive—to enable him to
carry his threat into execution. The assault, it now appears,
was made on four different points, viz., on the Malakhoff, the
Great Redan, the Little Redan, and on the Central Bastion. The
English portion was to storm the Great Redan, the other assaults
being undertakenby the French. All the attackswereinthefirst
instance successful. The redoubts of theMalakhoff, andthe sail-
ents of the Great and Little Redans were all of them carried
in the first impetuous onset ; the first only, of all the positions
named, proved tenable, but that fortunately was sufficient to
ensure the triumphant issue of the siege. " Six times," says
the Russian commander, "we repulsed the enemy." This,
indeed, was true; from the peculiar construction of the de-
fences of the Great Redan, after our brave soldiers had carried
the salient of this battery, it was exposed to the sweeping
storm of heavily-armed lines of earthworks, and in endeavours
to hold the position they had won and silence these earth-
works, two thousand English heroes fell before the command
to retire was obeyed. A similar cause compelled the French
also to abandon the Little Redan after they had gained a
footing similar to that obtained by the English. The Malak-
hoff was three times stormed by the French, and twice re-
taken from them, even the desperation of the Russians being
unable to repel or withstand the determined gallantry of the
third attack. From point to point the French troops advanced,
the Russians contesting every inch of ground, and resisting,
vainly, as Prince GORTSCHAKROFF writes, " to the last ex-
tremity ;" in spite of which the French flag was borne slowly
but steadfastly onward till at last it was planted securely on
the summit of the tower. The carnage in the different as-
saults was terrific, but the victory was won. The French
remained masters of this important work ; the other portions
of the allied forces returned to their entrenchments, leaving
eight or nine thousand killed and wounded on the mounds
and walls of the fortress. The Russians, driven at the Malak-
hoff Tower from their last hope of effectual resistance, re-
turned into Sebastopol.
The curtain of night now fell upon the exhausted com-
batants. The Russians, dispirited by their defeat at the
Tchernaya, had proposed to evacuate the town of Sebastopol in
the event of any decisive reverse, and before Saturday
morning had prepared the means for doing so. Reduced to
utter despair by the capture of the Malakhoff—the fort which
commanded all their works—it only remained for them to
abandon what they had so long and so resolutely struggled to
retain. The town, in fact, was ours before a street of it had
been entered by the allies. This important fact was revealed
to
the
slumbering camps of the victors during the silent
watches of that memorable night ; vast conflagrations threw
their lurid light on the sky over and around Sebastopol, and
these, accompanied by the dull rumbling concussion
of
enor.
mous and violent explosions, told too surely that the work of
voluntary destruction had commenced. Impelled by a resist-
less panic, the defeated Russians were hurriedly, and conse-
quently imperfectly, destroying the defences and the
stores they could no longer hold. While the artillery of the
victorious besiegers was still playing on the place, the whole
of the Karabelnaia suburb was suddenly blown up by the
Russians, who had also set fire to the town in many places,
and were busily engaged in destroying all that remained of
their boasted fleet of war-ships—so formidable at Sinope—
objects of such anxious care and punctilious solicitude at
Vienna. The work of destruction being thus hurriedly
pushed forward by some, others were marching by a bridge
of rafts from the south to the north shore of the harbour.
This latter operation was executed with such great celerity
as to make Prince GORTSCHAEHOFF claim for it the character
of " an extraordinary success," because he only lost a hundred
men in the operation ! More singular still, the happy dis-
positioned gentlemen who indite the Russian columns
of La Nord designate this nocturnal flight as indicative of
the " energy of a great commander." "It saves Russia," they
say, "from an inextricable position into which a false interpre-
tation of the point of honour would have thrust her." What
advantage Russia may derive from such a " success," it is not
easy to conjecture ; and many will be equally at a loss to
understand the beneficial " energy" displayed by the great
commander in effecting that manoeuvre, in the execution of
which he confesses with regret he was compelled to abandon
five hundred of his wounded soldiery !
The conquest of Sebastopol effected—for, according to most
accounts, there appears little doubt in any quarter that the
events of Saturday se'nnight must inevitably lead to that
result at no distant day—the important question remains,
What is to come out of it ? Already there seems reason to
apprehend that the Russian portion of our statesmen and di-
plomatists will once more seize the opportunity of endeavouring
to let Russia down as gently as possible. The non-humiliating
doctrine of Lord JOHN' RUSSELL, Sir JAMES GRAHAM, Mr.
GLADSTONE, and other members of the " new political union,"
have made their appearance in divers forms through the me-
dium of the press. The Times having provided itself with a
" peace column," treats its readers to very gently-spiced pota-
tions of frothy sentiment, in which the plan of waiting a
" little longer " for the " good time coming" in Russian politi-
cal morals is deftly recommended. "We can now rest awhile,"
and watch the effects of the chastisement already bestowed on
the "naughty boy," who having attempted to rob his neigh-
bour's orchard was put hack and whipped; and this course the
Thunderer vouchsafes to recommend. Experience has long
ago proved that the most dangerous period for a victor to re-
pose is the moment of victory. The allied arms have been so
far crowned with success, as to put it in the power of their
armies to achieve a signal and decisivevictory—a victory which,
by humiliating and crippling the foe, will for the future render
him both harmless and obedient. To leave off short of having
accomplished this object now, is not to display magnanimity,
but to exhibit weakness. The object of the war is still far
from being achieved. Dismantling Sebastopol and the destruc-
tion of the Black Sea fleet, although in themselves in the
right direction, are far, very far from being a consummation of
the objects intended to be achieved by a successful prosecution
of the war. These, if conceded at the beginning, would have
been admitted as ample, because they would have shown that
Russia had no aggressive designs against Turkey or other
nations in the southern portions of Europe. The war when
undertaken,lowever, had a larger object in view than preserv-
ing the integrity of the Turkish empire. The war was un-
dertaken because Russia was making inroads on civilization,
and building herself up in such a manner as to make her
dangerous to Europe. It was to repress these inroads and to
diminish that dangerous strength that the allies espoused the
cause of Turkey, and the object of the combination was to
weaken and humiliate Russia. Till these have been compassed
the objects of the war cannot have been attained, and if they
are not achieved the next generation will not see the termina-
tion of the struggle which must yet ensue. This feeling ap-
pears to be the guiding one in the councils of our French
allies. In proof of which a rumour is current in Paris to the
effect that Marshal PELISSIER telegraphed for instructions to
guide him, if Prince GORTSCHAICHOFF should capitulate, an
event which the Marshal thinks far from improbable, as the
Russian army is understood to have but fifteen days' provi-
sions, and to be very short of ammunition. The import of
the Emperor's answer is said to have been : " Our conditions
are that the Russians must surrender at discretion, lay down
their arms, and give up to the allies all the fortified
places in the Crimea, including Odessa, with all the,
munitions of war contained in them, and without any
damage being previously done, either to the towns or the
fortifications." This bold and resolute course of policy is-
undoubtedly the true one ; and so far as reliance can be placed.
upon anything so futile as the declaration of our own Minister,
a similar policy seems to animate the British cabinet, as it
unquestionably does the nation. On Friday last, the noble
PREMIER being on a visit to his estate of Melbourne, in Derby-
shire, was waited on by a acp”fation of the influential in
habitants of that beautiful little town and- neignuo...,
who presented to him an address of congratulation in which
the fall of Sebastopol cut a conspicuous figure. In reply,
Lord PALMEESTON said in allusion. to that circumstance,
"It is impossible to believe that the war can be brought
to any other conclusion than that which will secure to
Europe safety against the future aggressions of Russia."
These few words have created a great sensation in metropolitan
circles, and their effect has been equally magical all over
the kingdom. The people are from them taught to believe
that the flimsiness and sham of pretended hostility, bat real
friendship for Russia have been banished from the Cabinet,
and succeeded by a sentiment akin to that which animates the,
nation. Possession of Sebastopol has entirely removed the pres-
tige of the Russian military prowess—it has dispirited and,
demoralized their army—has despoiled them of mighty war-
like resources—has relieved the besieging army of great and
exhausting and dangerous toil—has placed them in a position
to avail themselves of their numerical, physical, and moral
superiority. The conflict may still be a sharp, but it can
scarcely now be a long one. True the advantage has been
gained by a sad and sorrowful amount of sacrifice. Thousands.
of our brave countrymen, and of their equally brave allies,.
have been immolated on the altar of stern duty; but to the
survivors who sorrowfully mourn over the mangled victims of
the ruthless onslaught, it must be some consolation at least to-
know that the sacrifice was not made in vain—that the blood.
so profusely shed upon the ramparts of Sebastopol has in its
crimson tide washed out the foot-marks, and swept away the
resting-places of aggressive slavery.
So completely absorbed has the mindof every one been with,
the magnitude and importance of "the victory achieved in the
Crimea, that every other topic seems forgotten, and it is with
difficulty that listeners can be found. for conversation on. any
subject foreign to the war. Even amidst this all-engrossing
appetite for war, some few are found to grumble and protest
against an abuse of patronage just perpetrated by our pure,
self-denying, and merit-loving Government. Some time ago
it was announced that Government was prepared to- expend
£5,000 on a marble statue to the Duke of Wma,rstexoN, to
be erected in St. Paul's. In pursuance of this resolution, four
distinguished sculptors, viz., Messrs. BAILEY, FOLEY, GIBSON,
and the Baron MAROCHETTI, were invited to send in com-
peting models. Two of them—GinsoN, in compliance with a
rule he has laid down for his own guidance, and MAROCHETTI
—declined to compete ; FOLEY and BAILEY produced
models—whether meritorious or not would seem to matter
little ; the mind of Government was made up in a direction
opposite to them, and its patronage was bestowed upon the•
lucky Italian Baron. The term " lucky" may with truth be
applied to this artist in its most legitimate sense. His first
public appearance in this country was at Glasgow, where, as.
in the present instance, without competing, and in defiance of
competition, he was thrust over the heads of all British sculp-
tors, and complimented with the commission to con-
struct the " Wellington Testimonial" for that city. Again
his knot of Glaswegian patrons secured for him the
equestrian statue of HER MAJESTY, which has been
recently erected there. Of the last it is impossible
for me to speak, as I have not seen it ; in regard to the former
no such ground for silence exists. As a piece of carefully-
laboured statuary it is admirable : as a specimen of tastefully
and skilfully-elaborated moddelling it is excellent ; but as a
work of art it is nought. Common-place in design, it does
not rise in any degree above the level of very ordinary
portrait sculpture, conveys no idea of dignity or grace,
and but for its magnitude would offer no salient point to
distinguish it from the herd of everyday equestrians. Yet,
such has been the good fortune of the Baron, that he has been
preferred to the execution of numerous public statues in this
country, while native artists have sighed for opportunity and
languished for lack of employment to celebrate their country's
heroes, and to enrich the country with the creations of their
intellect.
THE lIIVINGTON WATER WORKS.
VISIT OF THE TOWN COUNCIL.
WEDNESDAY last was one of the marked days in the history
of the extensive and interesting works, situated at and near
Rivington, for the purpose of supplying Liverpool with an
adequate quantity of pure water for sanitary and domestic
purposes, and also for the use of the shipping and other
branches of its rapidly increasing trade. Some doubts having
arisen in the public mind, and having also found expression in
the Town Council, as well as out of doors, as to the progress
made in the construction of these works and the probability
of their being made available for the purposes of a water
supply for a long time yet to come, the Water Committee
deemed the present a fair opportunity for ascertaining the
condition of the works, their gigantic magnitude and impor-
tance, and the existing state of their progress, from actual
inspection. Proceeding on this conviction, the Chairman of
the Water Committee, at the last meeting of Council, invited
the members to visit and inspect the works, and Wednesday
last was fixed on as the day on which they should proceed.
In accordance with this resolution, invitations were likewise
issued to members of the Dock Committee, of the Pilots'
Committee, and of some other public bodies, interested in the
ultimate success or failure of the Rivington water scheme ;
sand, as representative of the public interests in general,
members of the newspaper press were also freely invited to
attend.
A special train was provided to convey the party, seventy-
one in number, from the Tithebarn•street station to Bolton,
and precisely at a quarter before eight o'clock (the hour fixed
in the programme) the train started. The morning was most
auspicious, the weather being beautifully fine; and the com-
pany, elated by the aspect of the charming scenery through
which they sped, and animated by the anticipations of a day
of unmixed pleasure, arrived at the Bolton station precisely
at nine o'clock. A substantial as well as elegant breakfast
was provided in the refreshment rooms, and to this the party
did ample justice. Having partaken of the necessary refresh-
ment, the company took their places in five omnibuses, each
drawn by four horses, provided by Mr. Greenwood, postmaster,
and headed by that containing Mr. George Holt, chairman of
the Water Committee, they started for the upper section •of
the water-works operations, near Witlinall.
Shortly after leaving Bolton, the route lay through a dis-
trict undulating in outline, and lovely in its indications of
fertility and good culture, heightened by the manifestations
of an abundant and generally well-secured harvest the
only drawback upon this pleasant prospect being found in the
unmistakeable evidence of "potato disease," afforded in the
numerous fields and patches of this invaluable root which skirt
the roadside, and which, in nearly every instance, showed
traces, more or less marked, of the ravages of the " disease."
In passing from Bolton towards the higher districts of the
county, the picturesque and wild beauty of the scenery at-
tracted general attention; the heathery hill-sides and deep
intersecting ravines, together with the rugged peaks and
feathery clumps of woodland, enriched with the brilliant glow
of the mountain ash berry, and the deep green of the larch
and sycamore, lending a peculiar charm to a landscape inte-
resting alike from its appearance and associations. About half-
way between Bolton and the picturesque town of Belmont
the party, in passing by, scanned with curioas interest the
reservoir for supplying Bolton with water. This reservoir
presents to such a body of excursionists features of more than
merely visual importance. It has been for a long period in
existence, and, as such, furnishes valuable data as to the
quality of the storage water to be collected in the district,
and in that respect has been referred to by all parties advo-
cating or opposing the Rivington scheme. Further, at this
reservoir, or in connexion with it, has been constructed a rain--
gauge, which has been in operation since 1842, and which has
been referred to by all parties in the dispute, as- furnishing
the best data as to the absolute rain-fall of the' district in
which the Rivington water-works are situated.
Having passed Belmont, and still pursuing a devrensroute
through a hilly and rising country, the party reached the 'first of
the works connected with the Rivington system ofwater supply.
This consists of a culvert-bridge for carrying the publicroad,
which has been diverted to some extent, across the Rake
Brook. From this bridge the cortege' passed rapidly forward
to the Hare and Hounds Inn, where the carriages were left,
and at which point the visitors were met by the gentlemen
having charge of the upper portion of the. works, and by Mr,
Statham, general superintendent on behalf of Mr. Hawksley.
The company now assembled comprised—His Worship the
Mayor, Councillors Anderson, Crosthwaite; Woodruff, A. C.
Stewart, Moss, Nicholson,. Godfrey, Bradley, C. Turner,
Littledale, Avison, Holt, Fernihough, James. Holme, Banner,
Mann, Jeffreys, John Gladstone; jun., Alex. Shand;- Wagstaff,
Fleming, Johnson, Hodson, Kitchen, Clint, Beckwith,
Robertson, Halhead, Hall.—Aldermen Langsdale; Bennett,
Robinson, Cooper, Shand, and S. Holme.
Among the borough officials present were Messrs:- W. Shut
tleworth, Town-clerk ; James Newlands; Borough Engineer
Lieut. Lord ; Thomas Duncan, Willer Engineer ; Mason
G. V. Tanton, Thomas Venn, Alfred Quick, and W. Statham.-
-Dock Committee : J. K. Rounthwalte, Smith, Rivkin,
Barber, Mondell, and Lockett.—Pilors' Committee: Messrs.
Wm. Potter, George Kendall, Blythe, Rowlands, and Coolie,—
There were also present Messrs. H. C. Eeloe; P. B. M`Quie,'W.-
Blackstone, and several other gentlemen.
Immediately on arriving at the Hare and fibunds, the com-
pany, leaving the vehicles, proceeded to inspect the works,:
commencing at the Rake Brook embankment. The' woria,
which are very extensive; were generally admired by the-
visitors, as judiciously planned, and carried' oat in a spirit
of corresponding energy. They will be understood by a care-
ful perusal of the 'annexed report, drawn up-by Mr: Statham :
The collecting and. storage-works of the Rivingtbn scheme
of the Liverpool Corporation: Waterworks, commence in the
RIR% oLthmtist, I&4dcamodli,,,Apizt nine miles from
Bolton and Preston, and extend thence to a distance
of eight miles) where the main pipe commencers: Near to the
commencement of the works-the river Roddleswerth takes its
rise, and runs down a precipitous valley, having lofty hills on
each side towards- Moulden water.
There is also upon this river, and entering lat the point
before•mentioned, a stream called the Rake Brook c.and, at a
few hundred yards above the j action of the river Roddles-
worth and the Rake Brook, the first important engineering
works, of theßivington scheme;-for supplying-the town of
Liverpool with water, are visible; These consist`of two large
embankments, carried each across the valleys of the river
Roddlesworth and the-Rake Brook; by which the; descending
waters of these two streams -willbe impounded and connected
together by a govt; or canal, of abbot twenty feet wide at the
bottom, and about ten feet below-the top-water level of each
of these reservoirs, thus always-preserving their waters 4o a
uniform level to the depth of tan feet below ththi highest, or
top-water mark.
-The•objeet of these-two -reservoirs is to impound the waters
from the watershed or gathering:ground in their vicinity; and •
to distribute so mach of the surplus water as is above the ten •
feet level, before, mentioned, down .to the larger storage re-
servoirs of Anglexark and Ririagton, retainingthe remain-
der in storefor compensation, to be given out down the river
Roddlesworth, as- required by the act of Parliament.. The
surface capacity of these two reservoirs is about fifty acres,
and holds about 200 millions of gallons. The embankments
forming them are, about 90 feet high, constructed of earth,
with a watertight puddle. wall: in the centre, of-clay properly
worked and tempered.. The Roddlesworth embankment has
been entirely completed, as far as the earthworks are con-
cerned, and the Rake Brook embankment is very-nearly so
[The process of formation, at the Rake Brook .embank-
ment is being pushed forward with all the rapidity possibly
applicable to such.nwork. It wants now about four feet of
material laid on before it- is. completed to its full height
The difficulties.to be overcome in the formation of such a-
structure may to some extent be guessed from the annexed;
details,. gathered from personal inspection.. To secure the
embankment from the possibility of leakage, a solid wall of
well-puddled clay is constructed, stretching_ ongitudinally
from one extremity of the embankment to the other. This.
puddle wall. is. carried:up from a well-secured foundation on
water-tight strata, to obtain which, a-trench has been ex-
cavated across the valley, till the solid rock or the immoveable
arid impervious clay of the district has been reached. In
the instance before us this excavation was carried, 29,feet
below the surface at the bottom of the valley. The-clay
wall is then carried up, commencing with a thickness. of. IA
feet, and gradually diminishing. in thickness- till it ter-
minutes 6 feet thick at the upper surface of the embank-
ment. This puddle wall is a feature common, to all the
embankments.; the only variety in its character being to be
found in the greater or less degree of depth. required in the
foundation, Exterior to the puddle wall, on both sides, the
embankment is strengthened by the deposit of earth and
stone, sloping upwards on the side next to the water, at an
angle of three feet to one foot of height ; and on the outer
side at an angle of two feet to one foot of height, and
finishing on the top with a width of 18. feet. In the con-
struction of the Rake Brook: embankment alone, not less than
180,000 cubic yards. of material have been used ; these have
been chiefly derived from the excavation of the goit which
connects the Roddlesworth and Rake Brook reservoirs with
the lower works, and from side cuttings.]
From the western end of the Rake Brook embankment, near
to the Hare and Hounds Inn, on to the old Bolton and Preston
turnpike-road, a goit, or canal, has been excavated, and is now
in process of completion. This goit, or canal, is about twenty
feet wide at the bottom, and six feet deep, and perfectly water-
tight throughout. It extends from the Rake Brook reservoir
to the top or northern end of the large Anglezark reservoir, a
distance of about 31 miles. The bottom of the goit has, of
course, a regular fall or inclination, all the way from the Rake
Brook reservoir to the Anglezark reservoir.
This goit will enable the Corporation to draw off all the
flood and surplus water from the Roddlesworth and Rake
Brook reservoirs into the large storage reservoirs of Anglezark
and Rivington. It will also intercept and collect in its pas.
sage all the rainfall between these two localities, which may
descend into it, and which comprise several thousand acres.
The goit passes through or near the villages and hamlets of
Withnall, Brinscall, White Coppice, &c., at which places there
are weaving, bleaching, and spinning manufactories, which
have been established here for many years, on account of the
plentiful supply of pure water which they will receive in fa.
ture from the Corporation works at regular and convenient
times, and not as heretofore in large quantities, and at uncer-
tain periods, whereby they could not very frequently be re-
tained and made available for the purposes required,
[ln this instance, Mr. Statham must mean that the manu-
factories to which he refers were attracted to the spot by the
excellence and abundance of the water. to be met with in the
neighbourhood. This water being taken possession of by
the Liverpool Corporation, the manufacturers will, in future,
receive their supply from the Liverpool Water Works, which
supply will be delivered in regulated quantities instead of in
the intermittent and irregular manner in which it has
hitherto been received.]
The scenery along the goit is of a wild and in some places
rugged and precipitous character. The goit runs for some
distance along the valley adjoining the Withnall and Angle-
zark moors, where grouse are plentiful, and whence the towns
of Chorley, Preston, and the whole Fylde district, including
Blackpool, Lytham, and Southport, and the sea beyond, can
oftentimes be distinctly seen.
The engineering works upon the goit consist of earthworks,

CATTLE.
LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 17.—With only a slight difference In our
supply to-day from that of last week, we have a much worse mar-
ket for both beef and mutton, and for middling sheep in parti-
cular the demand was exceedingly slack. A considerable number
of beasts and sheep left unsold. Beef, 6d to 60 ; mutton, 6d to
Gid. 2,433 cattle, 15,727 sheep.
SALFORD, SEPT. 12.—There being a larger show of beef, prices
were a little easier. Lamb and mutton being much smaller in
number, they fully maintained last week's prices. Best beef 60
to 7id, middling sid to sid, cows 4d to 4id, best wedders 6id to
70, heavy weights 52d to 6d, ewes 4id to sd, lambs, 6d to 7d,
calves 5d to el. Beasts 1,170, sheep and lambs 9,200, calves 60.
DUBLIN, SEPT. 13.—The supply was considerably larger than
any we have had for several months; in fact, the first heavy sup-
ply during autumn, especially of sheep. Good meat sold fairly,
but all kinds of middling and inferior were lower. Beef, in sink,
50s to 60s ; prime, 63s per cwt. ; mutton, sicl to 60 ; veal, 7d to
lid per lb; lamb, season virtually out, 208 to 30s each. Pigs in
active demand at 55s to 56s per cwt., with increasing supplies of
good kinds.

WAR DEPARTMENT, Sept. 13.
Lord Panmure has this morning received the following in-
telligence from General Simpson, dated
CRIMEA, Sept. 12, 10 40 a.m.
The enemy have destroyed the remainder of their fleet.
Nothing now remains in the harbour.
An Imperial decree published in the Moniteur nominates
General Pelissier Marshal of France.
The Moniteur announces the Imperial decision for the
immediate liberation from service of the soldiers of the army
under Firm's.
The Moniteur of Friday announces that Marshal Pelissier,
in a telegraphic despatch dated September 11, informs the
Minister of War, that about 4,500 wounded, of which number
240 are officers, have gone to the ambulances.
As regards the number of dead (killed on the field of bat-
tle); it has not yet been possible to get an exact return, but it
is the opinion of the Commander-in-chief that it does not ex-
ceed the ordinary proportion—that is to say, about one-third
of the number of the wounded. •
THE RUSSIAN ACCOUNT.
The following is a copy of the despatch of Prince Gortscha-
koff:—
SEBASTOPOL, Sept. 9, 8 p.m.
The enemy receives constantly reinforcements of fresh troops.
The bombardment is fiercely violent. _ _
10 AT NIGHT
The garrison of Sebastopol, after sustaining an infernal fire
(feu d'enfer), repulsed six assaults, but could not drive the
enemy from Kornileff Bastion (the Malakhoff Tower).
Our brave troops, who resisted to the last extremity, are
now crossing over to the northern part of Sebastopol.
The enemy found nothing in the southern part but blood-
stained ruins.
On the 9th of September, the passage of the garrison from
the southern to the northern part was accomplished with
extraordinary success, our loss on that occasion being but 100
men.
We left, I regret to say, nearly 500 rnen,grievously wounded,
on the southern side.
THANKS TO THE ARMY.
The London Gazette, of Friday, states that Lord Pan-
mure has addressed the following telegraphic despatch to
General Simpson :
WAR DEPARTMENT, Sept. 12.
The Queen has received with deep emotion the welcome in-
telligence of the fall of Sebastopol.
Penetrated with profound gratitude to the Almighty, who
has vouchsafed this triumph to the allied army, Her Majesty
has commanded me to express to yourself, and, through you,
to the army, the pride with which she regards this fresh in-
stance of their heroism.
The Queen congratulates her troops on the triumphant issue
of this protracted siege, and thanks them for the cheerfulness
and fortitude with which they have encountered its toils, and
the valour which has led to its termination.
The Queen deeply laments that this success is not without
its alloy in the heavy losses which have been sustained ; and,
while she rejoices in the victory, Her Majesty deeply sym-
pathizes with the noble sufferers in their country's cause.
You will be pleased to congratulate General Pelissier, in Her
Majesty's name, upon the brilliant result of the assault on the
Malakhoff, which proves the irresistible force as well as the
indomitable courage of our brave allies. PANMIIRE.
THE FRENCH EMPEROR'S THANKSGIVING.
ON Thursday the Emperor went in state to the Cathedral of
Notre Dame, and was present at a Te Deum, in acknowledg-
ment of the downfal of Sebastopol.
The interior of the Cathedral was decorated nearly in the
same style as on the marriage of the Emperor. The choir was
covered over with the oriflammes of France,England, Piedmont,
and Turkey, and glittered in the sunbeams which passed
through the Gothic windows.
The altar in the middle of the transept appeared like a mass
of carved, gold, encircled by hundreds of candelabra. The aisle
and transept were furnished with benches covered with velvet
for the officers of the Crown, the various constituted corps, and
the representatives of foreign governments, Among the most
prominent were the Prussian and Austrian ambassadors. The
diplomatic corps and the Ministers of the Crown were to the
right of the Emperor, and on the left the Marshals of France,
the Grand Crosses of the Legion of Honour, the members of
the Institute, and other dignitaries and high functionaries. A
certain number of ladies who had been specially invited were
also present. The side aisles were left for the occupation of the
public, who filled them at an early hour. At 11 o'clock the
church was nearly filled. At half-past 11 the Archbishop of
Paris, with crozier and mitre, and followed by the chapter, pro.
ceeded to the entrance, where a canopy had been erected, and
under which he awaited the Emperor's approach. The greatest
interest prevailed as the ambassadors arrived. The personage,
however, whose presence was hailed with marked welcome was
Abdel Kader, who perhaps was the least astonished at finding
himself in'a Christian temple thanking Heaven for the triumphs
of France.
At half-past twelve the drums beating to arms and the
shouts of the crowd gave note of the Emperor's approach.
Within the church every one rose, the orchestra struck up a
triumphal march, and the troops presented arms.
The Emperor was received at the porch of the Cathedral
by the Archbishop and clergy of Paris. The Archbishop,
having presented the holy water and incense to His Majesty,
addressed him as follows :
" SIRE,—I come to receive your Majesty at the threshold
of this august temple, which vibrates to-day to the sound of
the glory of France. Let our solemn thanksgiving ascend to-
wards God for the brilliant success with which he has
crowned our arms. So much heroism will recieve its recom-
pense. The great object which your Majesty, in concert with
your allies, pursues with so much firmnesss and wisdom, will
not fail soon to be attained ; a glorious and lasting peace will
be achieved. But, Sire, that which adds to the nation's
joy under present circumstances in the thought that Heaven,
after preparing for you all these triumphs, is preparing for
you over and above, domestic joys, which will be the more
precious to your heart that they will also he the source of
public happiness."
The Emperor replied :
" I came here, Monseigneur, to thank Heaven for the
triumph it has granted to our arms, for I must acknowledge

ROUSER-OLD ECONOMY
To MAKE BLACKBERRY JELLY.—II-mipe black-
berries, picked from the stems, boiled in a jar three
hours, pulp them, and add double the weight of sugar,
or rather less.
GREEN-GAGES.---PriCk them with a needle, green
them with vine leaves, leave on the skins and stalks,
make a strong syrup, and put in the green-gages, and
make them hot several times, until they are green and
the syrup adheres to them.
THE BA EIEWELL PUDDING.—Having covered a dish
with thin puff paste, put a layer of any kind of jam
about half an inch thick, then take the yolks of eight
eggs and two whites, half a pound of sugar, half a
pound of butter melted, and almond flavour to your
taste ; beat all well together ; pour the mixture into
the dish an inch thick, and bake it about an hour in a
moderate oven.
VEGETABLE SOUP.—Peel and slice six large onions,
six potatoes, six carrots, and four turnips ; fry them in
half a pound of butter, and pour a gallon of boiling
water on them. Toast a crust of bread as hard and
brown as possible, but do not burn it, and put that
with some celery, sweet herbs, white pepper, and salt,
to the above ; stew it all gently four hours, and strain
it through a coarse cloth ; have ready sliced, carrot,
celery, and a little turnip, of which add to your liking,
and stew them in the soup till tender. An anchovy
and a spoonful of catsup may be also added.
RAISED APPLE PlE.—Select a good sized pudding
or jelly shape ; let the inside be well buttered ; then
line the top and sides with paste about the third of an
inch in thickness. Pare, core, and scald as many
.apples as will fill the mould; beat them up in a little
rose-water over a gentle fire, till reduced to a pulp ;
add two tablespoonfuls of quince marmalade ; sweeten
with powdered sugar to your taste. Fill the mould
with this and cover the bottom with paste. Set it in
the oven, with the top downwards, and a tile well
buttered to keep the bottom paste flat ; in half an
hour take it out of the shape and put it again in the
oven, till the crust is quite brown ; glaze with egg,
and ornament the top with various coloured dry sweet-
meats.

,EMENT TO THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
The same unwillingness to have recourse to legal pro-
ceedings showed itself on another occasion. He one
day missed bank-bills to the amount of upwards of
£3,000, and he suspected that his pocket had been
picked by M. Whiston, a nephew of Whiston, who had
bought an estate in land of that value without any
visible means of paying for it. Notwithstanding the
magnitude of the loss, he could not be prevailed upon
to prosecute the supposed delinquent, and when Mr.
Conduitt asked how much he had lost, he only answered,
" Too much." His liberality, indeed, was in some
instances excessive. On one occasion he offered
Cheselden as a fee a handful of guineas out of his coat
pocket, and when he refused them, saying that a
guinea or two was the most he ought to have, Si
Isaac, laughing, said, " Suppose I do give you more
than your fee." To Dr. Cheyne, who refused to take
money from him, he was less indulgent. According
to a statement made by Dr. Arbuthnot to Conduitt,
he one day told Sir Isaac that Dr. Cheyne had written
an ingenious book on mathematics, but that he had
not money to print it. " Bring it to me," said Sir
Isaac; and when the manuscript was brought to him,
he offered Cheyne a bag of money, which he refused,
and " Newton would see him no more."
CROMWELL AND MILTON.—Look at Cromwell and
Milton. Here are two men having so striking a family
likeness that they may be considered brothers. They
were both men of genius ; men of stern and earnest
temperaments ; men whose days were spent in strange
and unknown ways, with precipices and deep waters
on every side ; but who were always upheld by a so-
lemn enthusiasm and calm determination, that made
them set at naught all the powers of the world. For
them the ordinary attractions of life had no charms.
They were sent into the world for other purposes than
to eat, drink, and be glad. What to them were
seventy years of luxury and pleasure, if they were to
be purchased by an eternity of misery ? Was the
Bible true or false ? Were heaven and hell truth or
lies ? They looked into their hearts, and a fluttering
spirit told them that the Bible was true, that heaven
and hell were true, that life, death, and eternity were
true. Each then laboured under his great Task-
master's eye. But how different were their lives, and
yet how much the same ! How unlike are their por-
traits, and yet how like ! Yet could Cromwell have
been anything more than the statesman and the sol-
dier ? Could Milton have been anything but the philo-
sopher and the poet Was not Cromwell essentially
a man of action, and Milton not less essentially a man
of speculation P Could Milton have won the battle of
Worcester ? Could Cromwell have written " Para-
dise Lost ?" It was not assuredly for want of op-
portunities that Cromwell was not a great poet,
for his youth and early manhood were spent in re-
tirement and obscurity, such as were very likely to
nourish habits of thought and meditation, and induce
the mind to apply itself to the quiet study of literature
and philosophy. We know well that Milton devoted
his life to study, and how conscious even in his early
days he was of his vocation. The design of some
great work, which posterity would not let die, was
formed in youth, health, and happiness, and carried
out in old age, defeat, blindness, poverty, and ruin...-.

UNDER THE ROSE.—There has arisen much pretty
controversy about the common expression " under the
rose," and two different origins have been assigned.
Some people assert that it ought to be spelt " under
the rows," for that in former days almost all towns
were built with the second story projecting over the
lower—a sort of piazza or row, as they are termed,
and which may still be seen at Chester, and some
other old English towns ; and that, whilst the elders
of the family were sitting at the windows gravely
enjoying the air, their sons and daughters were
making love where they could not see them, " under
the rows." The other is much more elegant. Cupid,
it is said, gave a rose to Harpocrates, the god of
silence ; and from this legend originated the practice
that prevailed amongst northern nations of suspending
a rose from the ceiling over the upper end of the table,
when it was intended that the conversation was to be
kept secret ; and this it was, according to others, which
gave rise to the phrase "under the rose."---Notes and
Queries.
TEN PER CENT.---There is a great distinction be-
tween ten per cent. on any given sum, and interest at
the rate of ten per cent. per annum : the monies
borrowed in loan offices being repaid in equal monthly
or weekly instalments in the course of twelve months
from (repayment commencing immediately after) the
time the loan is obtained, are actually only owing six
months ; hence, ten per cent. on any sum thus repaid,
amounts to twenty per cent. per annum. This per
tentage, exorbitant as it appears, does not, however, by
any means show the rate of interest actually charged,
because the fees and fines almost always amount to
more than the sum deducted for interest ; but, even
taking it at an equal amount, which is far below the
average, the borrower would pay interest at the rate
of forty per cent. per annum, if he received the whole
sum deducted on which interest is charged ; but,
inasmuch as the interest and fees are deducted in
advance, the sum actually lent becomes diminished,
and the rate of interest increased thus :---If a person
borrowed £5O and repays £55., he pays ten per cent. ;
but if he only receive £45 and pays £5O, he pays
upwards of eleven per cent. In most cases where
small sums are borrowed, the repayments are made in
forty equal weekly instalments ; hence the whole
amount borrowed remains actually only owing for
about twenty weeks, and taking the above items into
consideration we do not overstate the case in esti-
mating the average cost of money borrowed from loan
offices to be at the rate of upwards of fifty per cent.
per annum.---Sharpe's _Magazine.

Napier prints letters, in defiance of the " private"
written thereon by the late Lord of the Admiralty.
We hear that Sir James expresses himself as perfectly
shocked at Sir Charles !
OUR FOREIGN RELATIONS.—EngIand and France
have turned pawnbrokers in favour of Turkey, offering
to lend it so many millions upon such and such se-
curity. In honour of this monetary alliance, we
should not be at all astonished if, for the future,
every Mont de Piete in Paris, and every pawn-
broker's in London, were to take for its sign—La
Tante Cordiale.
EMIGRATION OF THE LAWYERs.—The Bench and
the Bar may be said to be at present on their annual
Continentalcircuit, and in the majority of legal motions
the venue is laid in Italy, France, and Switzerland.
Several judges may be found sitting in banco under
the verandahs of Italian hotels, and various members
of the Bar are asking in vain for a rule to show cause
why there should not be an order to tax the bill of
some exorbitant Swiss landlord. Our learned friend
Briefless, has converted his blue bag into a sac de nuit,
and was much hurt at being asked at the French
custom-house, if he had " nothing to declare," which
he regarded as a satirical allusion to his not having
much to do in the way of drawing declarations. When
he was last heard of he had just attained a very con-
siderable eminence—geographically speaking— and
was looking back on the Jura mountains, which he had
just crossed, when with excusable emotion, he burst
into a strain of eloquence, characteristically commenc-
ing with the words " Gentlemen of the Jura." He has
since been heard to observe, that the difficulty would
be altogether removed, if the parties on both sides
would consent to have a Jura withdrawn.

ACT OF BENEVOLENCE.—Many of our readers will regret
to learn that Mr. Edward Gray, who has grown old in the
service of the parish, and in whom the public had one of the
best servants that ever lived, lies in a very precarious state at
his residence, Tue-brook, so precarious that his life is in great
jeopardy. He labours under two most distressing maladies—
dropsy and disease of the heart, and, at his time of life, recovery
from such an attack is hardly to be looked for. * * * 0„
one occasion he solicited a pecuniary loan from Mr. William
Rathbone. Hearing of his indisposition, Mr. Rathbone, with
his customary philanthropy, called to see and to solace the old
gentleman in his sufferings. Mr. Gray's attendant informed
Mr. Rathbone, in a private and subdued manner, that the in-
valid was extremely distressed in his mind respecting this loan.
" Give me ink and paper," said Mr. Rathbone, and he wrote a
discharge for the amount, £170; leaving at the same time a
cheque for £l3O, to soothe the sick man's sufferings. Acts of
this kind are of daily occurrence in the life of Mr. Rathbone,
and the ,only person who will feel any annoyance at the pub-
lication of AU noble act will be the benefactor himself,—

TO GAS CONSUMERS.
THE PATENT GAS REGULATOR insures a
saving of 25 per Cent. upon former consumption, while at
the same time a more brilliant light is obtained, and the un-
pleasant effects upon respiration, gilding, colours, &c., resulting
from the escape of unconsumed Gas, are, by a more perfect com-
bustion, avoided.
Gas is generally delivered from the Street Mains at a pressure
of 1f inches of water, often reaching to 3 inches. Experiments
have demonstrated that when of good quality it is most economi-
cally burnt at a pressure of four-tenths of an inch.
The Patent Regulator, when once adjusted, continues to furnish
Gas at one uniform pressure, unaltered by the constant fluctua-
tions of the street supply, and in its action is entirely independent
of the number of burners it supplies.
At the undermentioned Offices an Experimental-room is fitted
up to demonstrate the results as above stated. The Regulator has
been thoroughly and practically tested at the numerous Railway
Companies, large Establishments, Public Institutions, and Private
Mansions, to which we can with pleasure and satisfaction refer as
the best proof of its utility and value.

CORN.
LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 14. —At market to-day there was a
moderately fair demand for good fresh foreign wheats of most
descriptions at the full currencies of last week, but any parcels
out of condition were wholly without inquiry. A few parcels of
new Irish sold at rather more money. A fair supply from the
farmers was slowly taken at last Tuesday's prices. Flour, both
English and Spanish, sold less freely than of late. Barley in
moderate request, at late currency. Beans are scarce, and with a
good inquiry bring an advance of Is per quarter; and white peas
have sold in fair quantity the last two days, at an enhancement of
Is to 2s per quarter, Danish being worth 475, and Danzig 48s.
The market continues very poorly supplied with oats, which, as
well as oatmeal, command the extreme rates of Tuesday. Both
yellow and mixed Indian corn sold slowly to-day, with difficulty
supporting Tuesday's rates ; white was in fair request at previous
value.

MANCHESTER, SEPT. 13.—A firm market at the following
advanced prices, say 3d per bushel on wheat, 25 per sack on
Spanish flour, and is to 2s on English, is per load on oatmeal, Id
per bushel on oats, and 6d to Is per quarter on Egyptian beans.
In the value of barley, English beans, and Indian corn, there was
no perceptible change.
PRESTON, SHPT. 15.—There was a fair kupply of English
wheat at market this morning, chiefly of this year's crop. Old
sold readily at a trifling advance, and a few small lots of fine dry
nava rekm to nded last Saturday's extreme currency. but the
general bum was much out of condition, and some of it poor in
quality, so that there was a wide range in price, vary from 65s to
755, and from sos up to 84s per quarter. Flour is per pack dearer
on the week. Old oats are held for 2d per bushel advance, which
checks sales. No new offering. Owing to the scarcity of both new
and old oatmeal, the former commanded 375 to 395, and the latter
Is to 2s per load above the last quotations. Other articles com-
manded a little more money.
WAKEFIELD, SEPT. 14.—01 d wheat was in moderate demand,
at scarcely over lest week's rates. New being in better supply
did not sell relatively so high. Prices ranged up to 903 for best
red. New barley was inquired for. Beans were rather dearer.
In oats and shelling there was no change.
WISBECH, SEPT. 13.—We have had another week of brilliant
weather, with the exception of Thursday, which was cold with
slight rain. The harvest in this neighbourhood is nearly all
secured in the best possible order. The supply of old wheat
to-day is small, and of new several samples are showing. The
quality better than that of last week. Value ranging from 70s to
80s, and for old 783 to 82s, white 85s, with a good demand for all.
Scarcely any other grain offering, and former prices readily paid.
- •
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, SEPT. 15.—T0-day there was a
moderate supply of home-grown wheat, which sold briskly at an
advance of from is to 2s per quarter on the week. Some samples
of new were exhibited, quality generally fine, but various in con-
dition. and fetching from 76s to 885 per quarter. Very little
business doing in south country and foreign wheats, at an im-
provement of Is per quarter on the terms of this' day week.
Grinding barley scarce and dearer, holders asking 37s to 38s per
quarter 561b5. per bushel. No alteration in the value of beans or
peas. The supply of oats was small, part of the new crop, which
brought from 30s to 34s per quarter; old, is per quarter dearer,
with good demand.
CORK, Sam 15.—The sale of fine flour is very moderate, and
it is difficult to establish any advance. Bakers all complain of
limited consumption. Inferiors have improved demand, and
advanced los per ton. Foreign wheats are in few hands, and held
firmly for is advance, at which there is a small sale. Indian corn
has speculative buyers at full quotations.
DUBLIN, Sam 14.—There was rather a brisk market to-day.
Wheat realised an advance of 3d to fid ; barley, here. oats, and
rapeseed moved off at about the currencies of Tuesday last.
Scarcely anything doing in Indian corn; but holders are rather
stiffer.

A DELICATE DOMESTIC GRIEVANCE.--A. B. is a
married lady ; age not given. Has been married five
years. Her husband has been in the habit, during
that time, of giving dinner parties, to strengthen, as
he says, his professional connexions. Doesn't believe,
for her part, that they ever did any good, and thinks
balls much more likely. (Here the witness began to
wander, and was brought back with difficulty to the
matter of investigation.) During the whole of her
married life has been compelled to carve at table in
consequence of Mr. B.'s deplorable ignorance. Is in
delicate health, and is advised by her medical attend-
ant to breakfast in her own apartment ; but is com-
pelled to descend every morning to protect the sym-
metery' of the ham from his all-maiming hands. Mr.
B. is considered a well-informed man, but cannot
carve a fowl. Took what they call honours, she be-
lieves, at college, but don't know the difference
between a mayonnaise and a marinade. Is of opinion
that the government ought to do something in the
matter, and is certain that the evil is of wide growth.
C. D. is a young gentleman, aged twenty-four. Goes
to dinner-parties sometimes, but oftener to balls. Can
carve, of course. Has done so frequently. Don't
mean to say he •is a good carver. (This witness gave
his evidence with considerable hesitation.) Can carve
fowls at supper. Of course he can ; he's sure he can ;
has done so hundreds of times. Admits that they had
been previously cut up and tied together with white
satin ribbon. Well, then, carved them in fact by un-
tying a ribbon. Has offered at a dinner party to re-
lieve the hostess of a partridge. Hasn't done so
often. On her declining, upon the plea of not wishing
to trouble him, has not repeated the offer. Doesn't
think he was bound to have done so. Can help pota-
toes, of course, but admits doubts about asparagus.
Would use a spoon for both purposes. Thinks carving
a bore, and ought always to be done at a sideboard.
(Here the witness became so restless, that any further
examination was found impracticable.) In order to
remedy the deplorable state of social ignorance
evinced by these and other equally distressing cases,
it is proposed that a carver's college, supported by
donations and annual subscriptions, be founded in a
central situation, and select classes for the instruction
of adult pupils.—Dickens's Household Words.
TOWN AND COUNTRY BnED.—Constantly, by poets
and romance writers, do we find the " pale student"
referred to as the type of perfection ; in reality he is
an exceedingly poor creature, weak in body and diseased
in mind, and dares not venture to " swagger with a
Barbary hen." Send him to the country, and instead
of betaking himself to manly athletic exercises, he
keeps poling about ditches for weeds, which he digni-
fies with a name as long as your arm, or hunts the
pools on the sea shore, for infinitessimally minute
molucs, or knocks dqwn and impales butterflies on pins,
or is guilty of the atrocious meanness of abstracting
eggs from the nests of the singing birds during the
absence of the mothers. He writes verses too, and
never in the whole course of your existence did you see
such pitiful stuff. There is not in them, from begin-
ning to end, a single manly, brave, or spirited idea.
They consist of what he calls reflections on his moods
of mind ; and as you read you are filled with amaze-
ment that any human being can be at once so silly,
conceited, and depraved. Not so the youth whose
energies, physical and mental, have been developed by
early athletic exercises. At the university he works
like a tiger, with the more success and the greater
power of work, because the body and brain are healthy,
and he has no affections of the nerves. Down he goes,
when vacation arrives, to the hall or grange, with me-
rited honours ; and, a week after, you may see him
following the hounds in all the glory of pink, or stork-
ing the red deer up the mountain corrie, or waist deep
in the rushing river, with a twenty-pound salmon on
his line. Such are the sports which have made the
British gentleman what he is, and we should regard
their abandonment as little short of a national mis-
fortune.---Blackwood's Magazine.
DUELLING AMONG FEMALES.---As the -Helen of
Homer was the chief cause of the Trojan war, and of
consequenceresponsible for the duels between itsheroes ;
as the Roman maids and matrons went in throngs to
witness the fights of the gladiators ; as the women of
Greece were competitors for the prize in the Olympic
games; as the Turkish ladies crowded upon the ram-
BARD
109
parts of Regal to witness the combats between Smith
and their own champions; as the wives and daughters of
Denmark were once compelled by custom personally to
revenge their wrongs, and fight, according to prescribed
rules, those of the other sex who assailed their honour;
as the high-born dames and maidens of all Europe, in
the ages of chivalry, instigated and honoured the
tournament and the joust, so have the women of France,
and England, and America given countenance to the
modern duel. In. the time of Henry the Fourth of
France, relates Lord Herbert, the English ambassador,
the ladies of the French court,- at a mask under the
auspices of the Queen, invited the attentions of a
duellist who had slain eight or nine adversaries, and
each one of them, anxious to enjoy his society, would
not allow any lady to engross more than a certain
share of his time— And in the reign of another Bour-
bon, we are told of countesses contending with pistols
for the possession of a courtier whose amours and
affairs of honour were so numerous as to excite our
astonishment. In England, Elizabeth created Mary,
the high-toned wife of Sir Hugh Cholmondely, a knight,
and she was known throughout the realm as the "Bold
Lady of Cheshire." The queen herself possessed a
most chivalrous spirit. When the negociations for a
matrimonial alliance between her and the Archduke
Charles were finally broken off by his marriage to a
princess of Austria, the imperial daughter of Henry is
said to have exclaimed that, "So great an insult had
been offered to her, that, if she was a man instead of a
woman, she would have defied him to single combat!"
—Sabine's Notes on Duels and Dielling.
A MAN-EATING HORSE.—I was driving in a buggy
one morning through one of the finest streets of
Lucknow. A friend accompanied me ; and we were
proceeding from the vicinity of the Goomty to one of
the king's palaces. The deserted condition of the
streets as we advanced surprised us. There was no
inhabitant to be seen for a considerable distance, and
where one was visible, he or she was hurriedly de-
parting from the broad line of road on which I drove.
" Some execution," we whispered to each other ;
" some fresh example, nothing more." At length, in
the middle of the road, we came upon a trampled
bloody mass, bearing still some resemblance to a
human figure. We stopped the buggy to inspect it.
It was the corpse of a poor native female, but terribly
disfigured. The body was bruised and lacerated in all
directions, and the scanty drapery torn from the form.
Apparently she was quite dead, but we did not delay.
On we went ; still no sign of inhabitants ; the houses
everywhere closed ; breathless terror reigning on all
sides. It was not long before we came upon the
figure of a youth,. similarly mangled and destroyed,
lying also in the road—more towards the side, how-
ever. On the top of an adjoining house we saw one
of the King's trooper's standing, looking intently up
the road along which we were advancing. " What is
the matter ?" I asked. " The man-eater is loose,"
was the reply ; " wallah ! but he has turned again.
Look out for your safety, sahibs ; he is wild to-day."
I had heard of a savage horse belonging to one of the
King's troopers that went by this name, " Admee
kana wallah," the man-eater, because he had been the
destruction of many men. " He's coming," shouted
the trooper from the house-top ; " take care ! take
care !" Far along the road in front of us we could
see the wild brute—a large bay white horse he was, as
we afterwards found—shaking a child whom he had
seized, as he held it in his mouth; shaking it savagely,
but evidently coming towards us. In another mo-
ment he had seen the vehicle, threw the child upon
the road, dead, no doubt, and rushed forward with
savage fury to attack us. There was still a consider-
able space to be passed by him; but not a moment was
lost. We turned rapidly round, our horse, almost un-
manageable from terror, flying over the ground ; and
away we went in a mad gallop down towards an en-
closure with iron gates that we had passed a short
time before. The man-eater pursued with hearty
good will. We could hear his iron hoofs clattering
over the road as he advanced. We gained the en-
closure—turned into it—my companion leaped from
the buggy and shut the gate. The whole was the
action of a moment. It fortunately shut with a heavy
bolt into a socket, and just as the fall of the bolt se-
cured our safety, the man-eater came tramping up.
His head was covered with blood ; his jaws steaming
with recent slaughter ; his cheeks horrid with coagu-
lated gouts that had most probably spirted from hi,s
110
SUPPL
victims. There he stood, looking savagely after us
through the iron railings, with distended nostrils
and glaring eyeballs—altogether as ferocious-looking
a monster as any wild beast. Our horse trembled
at the sound of his impatient snorting—trembled as if
shivering with cold.-114 Travels, by Capt. Chamier.
AN ORATOR.---The following is the peroration of a
grand effort made by a stump speaker desirous of
representing his fellow-citizens in Congress. It is
grand, lofty, stupendous : " Time is critical,
blood's goin' to be poured out like soap-suds
outen a wash tub, and every man that's
got a soul as big as the white of a nigger's eye
'll fite, bleed, and die for his country. Them's the
times—you want men in the councils of the nation
that you can depend on---that's me ! Elect me to
Congress, and I'll stick to you through thick and thin
like a lean stick to a nigger's,. skin ! I'm not
goin' to make a electioneerin' speech. I'd scorn the
act. You know me---I've been fotched up among ye ;
already upon the wings of toplifted imagination, I
fancy I see you marchin' up to the polls in solid pha-
lanx, and with shouts that make the ear ring, ' hurrah
for Jim Smith ' come down on my opponent like a
thousand o'brick on a rotten pumpkin."
THE BURNING OF OLD DRURY-LANE THEATRE.--•
Accounts as to the origin of the fire vary. The day,
the 24th of February, 1809, was a Friday in Lent,
when there was no performance. The fire was dis-
covered about eleven o'clock at night ; in ten minutes
it extended from the front lobby—to which one ac-
count states that it was at first confined—to the
boxes ; and in one quarter of an hour from the first
discovery, it had extended over the whole house. In
another quarter of an hour the Apollo at the top fell
into the pit, and very soon after the roof fell in. In
about four hours from the first, the whole was de-
stroyed. This extraordinary rapidity of destruction
might afford a very useful lesson—one which was
attended to in the subsequent building, more than it
has been in still later theatres. There was, we should
state, an unfortunate system of construction in the case
of Holland's theatre. Under the idea of advantage as re-
gards sound, the skeleton of the fabric was made more
essentially a matter of carpenter's work, even than was
usual at the time. The complete framework, indeed,
was' all fmished, and stood for some considerable period
before the spaces were filled with brickwork. One
story tells how, that during the time of the fire, Mr.
Sheridan was discovered in one of the taverns hard
by, calmly enjoying a pint of wine. A friend dis-
covering him, expressed surprise that he could sit
there under the circumstances. Sheridan replied,
" What ! cannot a man take his glass of wine by his
own fireside ?" This 'story, in most of the lives of
Sheridari, is denied, and on the ground that when the
news of the fire reached the House of Commons,
Sheridan was there, and was able. to observe, on the
motion for adjournment, that "whatever might be the
extent of his private calamity, he hoped it would not
be suffered to interfere with the public busineis of the
country." That it would appear quite certain that
Sheridan remained at his post, and that different
anecdotes are therefore disposed of, would, however
seem to be not the necessary inference, since other
accounts say that the House did adjourn, many of the
members going towards the theatre. The fire oc-
curred five months after that at Covent-garden.—
Builder.
SIR ISAAC NEWTON'S GENEROSITY.—His generosity
and‘charity had no bounds, and he used to remark,
that they who gave away nothing till they died never
gave at all. Though his wealth had become consider-
able by a prudent economy, yet he had always a con-
tempt for money, and he spent a considerable portion
of his income in relieving the poor, in assisting his
relations, and in encouraging ingenuity and learning.
He was scrupulously exact and regular in all matters
of business ; and though he disregarded money, allow-
ing his rents often to remain unpaid, he had a deep
sense of justice, and was very strict in demanding
from his tenants at Woolsthorpe, even in very small
matters, a rigorous performance of their obligations.
His conduct, however, was not always influenced by
this principle. When he had been imposed upon in pur-
chasing an estate at Baydon, in Wiltshire, for which
he had paid double its value, and was told that "he
might vacate the bargain in equity," he replied, " that
he would not for the sake of £2,000 go into West-
minster Hall to tell that he had been made a fool of."

SCIENCE AND ART.
How TO CATCH FLIES.—Take a number of vessels,
such as jars or tumblers, and half fill them with soapy
water, covering them with paper the same as you would
preserves. The paper must be rubbed on the inside
with something sweet, and a small hole left in the cen-
tre of each cover just large enough for a fly to enter.
Place the vessels thus prepared in different parts of the
room or other place infested with flies, and the insects,
attracted by the smell inside the covers, will settle on
the tops, crawl through the holes, and feed upon the
sweets inside. Heat of the weather having caused
the soapy water to ferment, a gas is thrown off which
soon overpowers the flies, and they drop into the
vessel.
FRENCH COTTAGES OENEE.—I was much pleased
with some newly-erected villas and cottages ornees
which I saw at Passy and Auteuil, in which a highly
picturesque effect was produced by the employment of
black and red brick and stone without any elaborate
decoration. Some of these were in the Late Domestic
French Gothic style—a style peculiarly adapted, I
think, for modern residences, and of which there are
numerous specimens existing in good preservation.
Its adoption and introduction to this country would
give one more element for those new combinations of
known forms which must henceforth in architecture
take the place of originality.—The Builder.
DANISH ANTIQUITIES.—COPENHAGEN, SEPT. B.
The. King is now at Ringstad, the ancient capital of
the kingdom, to be present at the opening of certain
tumuli, containing, according to the popular legend,
the graves of the first Kings of Denmark. The first
that was opened was supposed to be that of King
Canute Laward, but nothing of importance was found
in it. The next tumulus opened was the grave of
Canute VI., where was discovered a long box or coffin,
with a leaden cover, which was immediately opened in
the presence of the king. There is no doubt that the
remains were those of the above-named king, from va-
rious regal emblems and the size of the skeleton---for
history records him to have been a very tall and power-
ful man. In the grave of king Waldemar 1., a very
interesting discovery was made. Under the head of
the body, which. was enveloped in a monk's cowl, was
found a square leaden slab, not only confirming this as
the grave of King Waldemar, but recording the prin-
cipal acts of his life.
THE STREETS OF PARIS.—The grand effect of the
street architecture of Paris, arising from the immense
height of the houses, is very striking to a Londoner,
who rarely sees three stories exceeded. The new
buildings in the extension of the Rue de Rivoli are
quite palatial, and, unlike our new streets, are con-
structed of stone, and not brickbats cemented over.
The balconies (of which there are two, one above the
entre-sol, and a second formed by a bold projecting
cornice, to the fourth story) are gilt, which mode is
probably as. durable as paint in the pure air of Paris,
and adds much to the gaiety of the general effect of the
new street. Nothing can be more admirable than the
arrangements for cleaning and watching the streets.—
The Builder.
CLAY AND BRICK IN ENGLISH ARCHITECTURE.—
The art of the bricklayer is at a very low ebb in Eng-
land : compo and contracts have left us but little of it.
Saying nothing of the rows beyond rows of unsubstan-
tial structures reared throughout the suburbs simply
to sell, the existence of which might be most suffi-
ciently explained by supposing that—
" Casual bricks in airy clime,
Encountered casual horsehair, casual lime,"
in our most extensive and important buildings of brick,
anything more than solid work is seldom if ever at-
tempted. From time to time, and • for a long time,
we have sought to turn the attention of architects and
brickmakers to the use of clay, to which we are restricted
as a material for building in so many parts of the
kingdom, in other and more ornamental forms than a
would-be rectangular parallelo-piped 9 inches long, 4-1-
inches wide, and 21 inches high, without a sharp arris,
or a, square side. Here and there endeavours have
been made, and are being made, to effect an improve-
ment in this respect. Hitch, of Ware, did something
in this way very long ago ; then Bakewell's screw
presses for the formation of moulded bricks, good and
cheap, were looked forward to. Messrs. Bowers, of
Tunstall, patented a method of making brick orna-

OFFICIAL DESPATCHES.
(A Supplement to the London Gazette of Tuesday, contains
• the following.)
WAR DEPARTMENT, Sept. 12.
Lord Panmure has this day received a despatch and its en-
closures, of which the following are copies, addressed to his
lordship by General Simpson :
BEFORE SEBA.STOPOL, Sept. 1.
My Lord,—The siege operations during the past week have
progressed slowly, the brightness of the nights rendering the
work to be performed a task of great difficulty. The head of
the sap is now about 150 yards from the salient of the Redan,
and the enemy interrupt the work by every means in their
power.
On the night of the 28th, a 13-inch shell fell into a magazine
on the left face of the Mamelon, which exploded, causing some
few casualties, but in no way interrupting the continuance of
the fire.
On the night of the 30th ult., the Russian pickets made a
rush at our advanced trench, upset a few gabions, and un-
fortunately killed Lieutenant Preston, of the 97th Regiment.
In this affair Captain Pechell, of the 77th Regiment, who
commanded the advanced party, and Lieutenant-Colonel
Bunbury, of the 23rd Regiment, who commanded the supports,
behaved with great gallantry.
Great activity prevails on the part of the garrison in making
use of the new raft-bridge across the harbour, and stores of
all kinds are daily transported to the north side.
Large working parties are employed in throwing up works
on the north side, but as yet they are in too unfinished a state
to judge of their exact nature.
From the information we continue to receive it appears that
the enemy is concentrating his force between the Mackenzie
heights and Fort Constantine ; and although several minor
changes of position have been made, no movement of im-
portance has occurred to indicate a positive intention to
attack.
All our accounts confirm the reports of the great losses of
the enemy daily in Sebastopol, and that some discontent pre-
vails in their ranks.
I have the honour to enclose the lists of casualties.
I have, &c.,
JAMES SIMPSON, General Commanding.
The total casualties from the 27th to the 30th of August
were, 1 officer, 1 sergeant, 20 rank and file killed; 6 officers, h
sergeants, 152 rank and file wounded.
NOMINAL RETURN OF OFFICERS KILLED.
Aug. 30.-97th Foot : Lieutenant G. B. Preston.
NOMINAL RETURN OF OFFICERS WOUNDED.
Aug 28.-3rd Battalion, Grenadier Guards : Captain the
Hon. W. Forbes, slightly.
Aug 29.-Ist Battalion, Scots Fusilier Guards : Captain J.
R. Farquharson, severely.-41st Regiment of Foot : Brevet-
Major L. Graham, severely.
Aug 30.-90th Foot : Captain G. J. Wolseley, assistant-en-
gineer, severely.— 97th Foot : Lieut. M. Brinkley, severely ;
and Lieut. G. H. H. Ware, severely.
KILLED AND WOUNDED AT THE ASSAULT.
WAR DEPARTMENT, Sept. 12.
Lord Panmure begs to forward the accompanying list of
officers killed and wounded at Sebastopol, which he has this
day received from General Simpson.
Lord Panmure thinks it right at the same time to observe,
that in the transmission of the list by telegraph several mis-
takes occurred in the names of the officers wounded, and he
cannot therefore hold himself responsible for its accuracy :

THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
chiefly of a light and easy character, and it is crossed by
bridges of stone or iron, at the necessary roads and occupation
crossings. Several heavy and important puddle trenches
have, however, been executed on this portion of the works.
These have all been completed, and now the well-smoothed
slopes of the various cuttings and embankments present
nothing to the eye to indicate the great engineering skill and
labour that has been bestowed upon these really important
portions of the undertaking—the constant object of the engi-
neer throughout the whole of the works having been to have
them so constructed that not a single drop of water, to which
the promoters—namely, the Corporation—may by their act be
entitled, shall, if possible, be allowed to escape.
The southern termination of the goit, or canal, brings us to
the first extensive storage reservoir, called the Anglezark
reservoir. This reservoir is about one mile and a half long,
and will, when full, cover a space of about 185 acres. Its
capacity for storage is estimated at about eleven hundred
million gallons, which will be supplied by the goit before
described, and by the watershed, or gathering ground, from
several thousand acres, including also the river Yarrow, which
takes its rise on the eastern side of it, in the hilly district of
the Anglezark Moor, and passes through the lower portion of
the reservoir, where its progress is now arrested by the
Knowsley embankment.
The locality of the Anglezark reservoir, and the various
works therefrom to form it into a reservoir, are as follow :
namely, the reservoir commences at Heapey, near to where
the canal or goit debouches into it, and is in fact a valley of
about one mile and a half in length, lying between hills, the
eastern side being the Anglezark Moor, with some fine wooded
and pasture lands at the foot, extending to the borders of the
reservoir, and on the western side are the wooded and pasture
lands of Heath Charnock, Anderton, &c. This reservoir ter-
minates at the Knowsley embankment, near to an elegant
mansion lately erected by Peter Martin, Esq., a county magis-
trate for the Bolton district, and which mansion is situated on
the banks of the Rivington, or lower reservoir, tobe hereafter
described.
For the purpose of enclosing and retaining the waters in
this reservoir the following works have been constructed, and
almost completed :—First, the Heapey embankment, at the
top or northern extremity of the reservoir. This embank-
ment is about 100 yards in length, and about ft feet high
from its base. It extends across a narrow pass, and will re•
tan the waters which used to flow from the Anglezark Moor
down the Ileapey Brook through the'}feapey valley westward.
The nest work on this reservoir is the Heath Charnock
embankment, now complete. This is an extensive work,
being about - 840 yards long, and has a side bank made to re-
rain the waters in the reservoir on the western side, where the
hoUndary of the valley was not sufficiently high for this pur-
pose. Its greatest height is about thirty feet above the old
natural surface of. the ground.
Opposite to this bank, and on the eastern sid of the reser-
voir, there' is also a side bank called the Leicester Mill bank.
This is not a water4ight bank, and has in the middle of it a
three-arched bridge; of light and elegant design, over the river
Yarrow. Through' chip bridge the waters will haveaccess on
both sides of the' embankment, upon the filling of the Angle-
zark reservoir: This embankment also carries theread that
used to pass along the' bottom of the valley from Anglezark
Moor and Leliester Mill to' ehorley.
The new road is- now continued:from the southern' end of
the Leicester All Bank, alonwthe side of the reservoir,- over
the Knowsley embankment; inth• the old road to Chorley.
We now come to the heaviest and, most expensive work that
that has been executed to enabfe• this•reservoir to be formed;
the Knowsley embankment.
This embankment is about 270' yards long, and crosses-
thevalley at a height of about fortyfive feet about its sun;
face: This embankment, as are also' the Heapey and Heath,
ChArnock banks, is perfectly water-tight, having a puddle-
wall running along its. entire length: The puddle-wall it'
founded= a water-tight stratutn, which; in several places in
this-embankment, is above twenty feet below the bottom of
the'ralley, or above 115 feet in its-total height to the top of
the embankment. Through the embankment on the western
side is-carried a tunnel, provided with a shaft and proper
valves and apparatus for discharging the waters-of this reser-
voir-into the'Rivington, or lower storage, reservoir.
[The Knowsley embankment, although not the most ex-
. teseive, was-in reality the most difficult andformidable of
all the embankments to construct. The chief difficulty
being-to nbtaim access to a really water-tight stratum for
the -foundatiOnifor the puddle-wall, which was not obtained
till theworkmen had excavated to 'a depth of seventy-two
ft;et below the 'surface of the valley ; and here 'a substantial
flundation.' was• found upon the' solid shale. The 'experi-
mental boring at this point gave some interesting geological
features -Or detail. The mass of shale was found to be-fifty feet
deep•withatit a joint; •through an additional depth of eighty
feet more the shale-was found a littlejOinty, and below this
enormous mass the millstone grit, the' prevailing formation
of the- district, was reached, whereas•at the lower end :of
the goit; the grit was reached at a depth of eighty feet, with-
out any iniperincumbent Shale.]
The Rivington or lower'reServoir commences immediately at
the foot of "the Knowsley embankment, and 'thence proceeds
along the valley, of the -Yarrow under the house of Peter
Martin, Esce Following the valley of thefirrow; the reservoir
is held up bYethe Yarrow embankment, at a point a little below
Mr. Martin's -house, and their is continued along the Rivington
valley, nearly north and south, having on its. eastern side the
village of Rivington, and the well-wooded and pasture lands-
at the foot of the famous Rivington Pike, which may be seen,
throughout the whole of this- reservoir, towering -above the-
low lands to the.south and west of it.
The western side of the reservoir is bounded by the western
lan& of Anderton; and across the valley at the lower end next
to Harwich has been constructed the Norwich embankment,
an extensivoze/kohout fifty:eight feet in height, which ter-
When full,. wilt cover about 268 acreseanh nalitorage
capacity will be about. 1,900,000,000 gallons,. which, added to
the Anglezark reservoir, gives a total average of above 450
acree, and a storage capacity of abent 3,000,000,000' gallons, for
the two large reservoirs alone.
The principal engineering works on the Blvingten Reser-
voir. an • the side-bank across the-river Yarrow, before men-
tiOned„which is in peogress, and only wants the.pitehing and

finished and which crussesthe reservoir opposite to. Rivington,
earryingthe road from that village to Anderten and Chorley,
which road used to run -along the valley, past the old Black-
bey,-or Black-a-moor'sehead Inn. This house ii-now under-
going.the process of demolition. Ita-suceessor, the intended
new, Bbiekboy Inn, has -been erected and completed imme-
dlatelY under Rivington ehitreh, and close to the=side of the
new-road, carried across -the valley by the Blackboy embank-
ment„by Robt. AndrewseEsge lord ©f the manorof Rivington,
and a county magistrate..
Nature has there assisted : the engineer, and:: saved the
pockets of the Corporation, by the depth of the valley down
which the reservoir will. be formed,. for we meet, with no fur-
ther artificial boundary- to the reservoir till we arrive at the
Millstone embankment,: a 'wayside bank„acrostea low dip in
the Anderton side of the valley. This embankment is about
800 'yards -long, and has been for some time completed. Its
greatest depth is about 30 feet. It also carries the turnpike-
road: from Bolton to Charley and Freston over its surface, in
Hsu, of the old road, which is now inside the reservoir.
The. final great work-. of this reservoir, is the. Horwich em—
bankment, which commences. at the southern extremity of the-
Mill Stone Bank, and is,. indeed,. partly a . continuation of it,,
and , proceeds by the- side of the Bolton .and Chorley road .
aouthreard for some distance, and then °turns nearly at right.
angles from the Anderton side-across-the valley to the Riving!!
ton side. Its length is about 640 • yards, and its greatest
height is about 68 feet above the Rivington-valley.
At the foot of the., Horwich embankment, without the
reservoir, and immedkttely adjoining. it, are the filtration
workes. These consist. of ;six compartments for filtering,_ and:
two pure water tanks,.. with which the main leading to Liver- -
pool communicates..
The above works-comprise the whole of the scheme for the
collecting, storing, and filtering the water for the supply of
the-town of Liverpool; and are altogether rapidly apprcaching
completion. There are at.present employed upon these works
abeut 1,400 men each day, and about 100 horses.
[Each of these embankments-is furnished with,a waste-
weir for allowing
.the surplus_ water- to escape, and so ,pre-
venting it from overflowingtheembankments ; yet these are
so constructed as to run the-waste water directly into the next
lower reservoir: to that from which it has escaped, except
the Horwich embanlonentio the waste-weir of which commee
nicates directly with the-brook. The embankments are •also
furnished; with apparatus. admirably suited,for running off
the supply, and also for-compensation water, both of which
will be,regulatedr with, the nicest accuracy,l

works,,as.far as theßlackboy embankmer.t, in, the middle of
the Rivington reservoir, the company Kit down to & somptu-
ous.oollation in, the-sew House, Blackboy
After tbe.cloth had been removed, the Chairman gave the
health of " Her Majesty the Queen," which was. drunk with
all, the honours. Mr. Alderman S. Holme next proposed
" The Emperor of the French," remarking, on the excellent
moral and social qualities of the, French people, as he had
himself seen and experienced. The health of " The Mayor"'
was drank with all the honors,, which his worship tastefully
acknowledged. " The Dock Committee" was then proposed
by Mr. Fernihough, and, having been duly honoured by the
company, was responded to. by Mr. C. Turner, chairman of
the Dock Committee.
The company then proceeded to inspect the filtering beds,
and other portions of the works in that vicinity.
The filtering beds occupy the eastern half of the valley,
immediately to the south of the Horwich embankment, to
the extent of about 1000 feet, the western half being occu-
pied by two equalizing or pure water tanks. The filtering
beds are large excavated tanks, each 350 feet long, and 150
feet broad, separated from each other by an embankment
about ten feet wide at the top. They are each about ten feet
deep, and the filtering apparatus commences by a covered
drain sunk about two feet below the general bottom of the
tank, on each side converging in the middle to a sluice valve
communicating with the pure water tanks by a tunnel and
tube. Above the drain referred to is laid a bed of rough
broken stones, two feet in thickness ; this is covered by suc-
cessive layers of gradually finer broken stones and gravel, till
having reached a thickness of nearly five feet, when it is to be
covered by a stratum eighteen inches thick of washed sand.
The pure-water or equalizing tanks are each about 450 feet
in length, by about 300 feet in width. They are puddled all
round, and covered on their floors and sides by thick and well-
set masonry. They communicate with each other by sluice
valves, and are so constructed that either one or both may be
used, according as convenience may require. They are also
famished with a bye-wash for taking off the surplus water;
and, likewise, they have a means of communicating this sur-
plus water with the compensation water to the mills, which
runs into a brook. In the bottom of these pure-water tanks
there is an admirably contrived means of keeping the water
in a ceaseless current.
Most of the works are nearly, and some of the most impor-
tant, completely finished, those in the Anglezark reservoir
being so far advanced that they will be finished by Saturday
at the farthest. The contractors are busy with their respec-
tive works; an extent of fifteen miles of the large pipes has
already been laid, and only nine miles remain to be put in.
The chief difficulty hitherto experienced in the laying of these
pipes, by the committee and their contractors, has been over-
come in reference to the St. Helens deviation, and the work
will now be completed without further interruption.
Having completed .their tour of inspection, the excursionists
were again assembled at the Horwich Station, where, having
re-entered the carriages of the special train, they started on
their homeward journey, and arrived in Liverpool about half-
past eight o'clock, having spent a day of unalloyed pleasure,
each one impressed with the importance and scientific skill
displayed in the magnificent works which they had inspected.
Several of the gentlemen present, in all probability, from
the circumstance of not being very much acquainted with the
nature of such works as those they had been inspecting,
seemed to doubt the probability of a large supply of water
being collected in the different reservoirs ; an impression
further borne out by the dry condition the works were in at
the time of the inspection. To obviate any misconception on
this point, it may be by many deemed sufficient to state that
the area of the basin which is drained into these works is
9,847 acres, or nearly 15 square miles. As some difference
of opinion existed on this point of supply, prior to the
undertaking being proceeded with, Mr. Newlands, the
Borough Engineer, and Mr. James Simpson, C.E., were
requested to investigate the matter, and draw up a report
on the subject, which they did, and presented to the Town
Council early in 1819. From that report it appears that a
computation, extended over an average of six years, gives for
the district a rainfall of 21,800,000 gallons per day, which,
after deducting 8,200,000; the amount required for compensa-
tion, would leave 13,600,000' gallons per day for the supply of
Liverpool. It is true, these gentlemen state that such an
average is excessive, as it does not take into account the defi--
ciency caused by the extra dry seasons. They further express
an opinion, that the probable deffeiency,arising from the cause.
referred tq will be aggravated by the storage of the reser=
voirs not being sufficient to equalise' the water for ma'tn-
taining such a supply. These gentlemen, in their very able
report state the aggregate contents of the' three reservoirs at
2;849,497,575. gallons, while Mr. Hawkeley estimates their
capacity at 3,156;000,000 gallons. A disagreement on this
and other points of vital interest in connexion with so impor-
tant an undertaking having been thas brought under notice,
the Council referred the matter to the arbitration of Mr.
Robert Stephenson, the celebrated engineer. That gentle-
man, after a most minuteand painstaking investigation into
all the details of the question, and delivering a very elaborate
opinion concerning them, thus summarises the results of his
examination
" The contested parts of the.project have had my- uninter-
rupted study, and I believe it has been made evident
" That the Rivington schemele adequate to the supply of
an abundance of water to meet both the immediate watts of
the town, and alsc•the prospectice•demands which may arise
from any probable increase of population for the next twenty
ycdrs to come.
"That the reservoirs are fitted for such a storage as will
secure an uniform and•copious supply"at all seasons."
As the terms of the above report appear considerably antago.,.
nistic to the opinion carefully formed: and deliberately ex-
pressed by the Borough Engineer, it is•but right to give also
Mr. Stephenson's remarks •as to the discrepancy* in the com-
puted extent of storage. He says, at page 34 of his report :
" The capacity of the resertoirs -is •stated by Mr. Newlands to
be 2,849;1)00,000 gallons, and by Mr. Hawksley, 3,156,000,000
gallons ; which difference is.cansed by the addition, when re-
quired, of 6'76 feet to their depth by moveable shuttles, or flush -
boards= the weir, an intention probably unknown to Mr. New-
lands." Again, in respect to the anticipate& daily supply as
estimated by Mr. Newlands, Mr. Stephenson; at page 37 of
his report, Gays :—" I feel it but justice to Messrs. Simpson
and Newland.; to state, that when they made their calculations
on this subject they were unacquninted with several arrange-
ments contemplated by Mr. Hawksley, which arenot apparent
on the face of the parliamentary plans, although having a
decided bearing-upon the final results."

CORN.
LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 14. —At market to-day there was a
moderately fair demand for good fresh foreign wheats of most
descriptions at the full currencies of last week, but any parcels
out of condition were wholly without inquiry. A few parcels of
new Irish sold at rather more money. A fair supply from the
farmers was slowly taken at last Tuesday's prices. Flour, both
English and Spanish, sold less freely than of late. Barley in
moderate request, at late currency. Beans are scarce, and with a
good inquiry bring an advance of Is per quarter; and white peas
have sold in fair quantity the last two days, at an enhancement of
Is to 2s per quarter, Danish being worth 475, and Danzig 435.
The market continues very poorly supplied with oats, which, as
well as oatmeal, command the extreme rates of Tuesday. Both
yellow and mixed Indian corn sold slowly to-day, with difficulty
supporting Tuesday's rates; white was in fair request at previous
value.

In the value of barley, English beans, and Indian corn, there was
no perceptible change.
PRESTON, Sm. 15.—There was a fair supply of English
wheat at market this morning, chiefly of this year, a crop. Old
sold readily at a trifling advance, and a few small lots of fine dry
general bulk-item Aze Anritvaidahr,Pin EATlSlivatKitig,
quality, so that there was a wide range in price, vary from 65a to
755, and from 808 up to 84s per quarter. Flour Is per pack dearer
on the week. Old oats are held for 2d per bushel advance, which
checks sales. No new offering. Owing to the scarcity of both new
and old oatmeal, the former commanded 37s to 395, and the latter
is to 2s per load above the last quotations. Other articles com-
manded a little more money.
WAKEFIELD, SEPT. 14.—01 d wheat was in moderate demand,
at scarcely over lest week's rates. New being in better supply
did not sell relatively so high. Prices ranged up to 90s for best
red. New barley was inquired for. Beans were rather dearer.
In oats and shelling there was no change.
WISIIECH, SEPT. 13.—We have had another week of brilliant
weather, with the exception of Thursday, which was cold with
slight rain. The harvest in this neighbourhood is nearly all
secured in the best possible order. The supply of old reheat
to-day is small, and of new several samples are showing. The
quality better than that of last week. Value ranging from 70s to
80s, and for old 78s to 828, white 85s, with a good demand for all.
Scarcely any other grain offering, and former prices readily paid.
NEWCASTLE-UPON TYNE, SEPT. 15.—T0-day there was a
moderate supply of home-grown wheat, which sold briskly at an
advance of from Is to 2s per quarter on the week. Some samples
of new were exhibited, quality generally fine, but various in con-
dition, and fetching from 76s to 88s per quarter. Very little
business doing in south country and foreign wheats, at an im-
provement of Is per quarter on the terms of this day week.
Grinding barley scarce and dearer, holders asking 37s to 38s per
quarter 561bs. per bushel. No alteration in the value of beans or
peas. The supply of oats was small, part of the new crop, which
brought from 30s to 34s per quarter; old, Is per quarter dearer,
with good demand.
CORK, SEPT. 15.—The sale of fine flour is very moderate, and
it is difficult to establish any advance. Bakers all complain of
limited consumption. Inferiors have improved demand, and
advanced 10a per ton. Foreign wheats are in few hands, and held
firmly for is advance, at which there is a small sale. Indian corn
has speculative buyers at full quotations.
DUBLIN, SEPT. 14.—There was rather a brisk market to-day.
Wheat realised an advance of 3d to 6d; barley, here, oats, and
rapeseed moved off at about the currencies of Tuesday last.
Scarcely anything doing in Indian corn; but holders are rather
stiffer.

MARKETS FOR MANUFACTURES.
MexcirEsTEL—Yarns have been in less demand, but the
orders in the hands of spinners, the improved tone, and an
upward movement in cotton, combined to render the market
a more difficult one to operate in at the beginning of the week ;
but since, prices have been rather easier. Whether for India,
Germany, or the Mediterranean, the demand has been more
moderate• Yarns for the home trade, though more was asked
for them early in the week, can now be obtained at slightly
reduced rates ; still, much firmness is maintained. Cloth re-
mains without much change ; the demand has been steady, but
as the week has worn on, there has been less inquiry.
ROCHDALE.—Rather a quiet market in flannels, and without
any change in prices. Pieces are taken off the market as fast
as they are made, and there is no accumulation of stocks.
Wool steady in price as well as demand.
HUDDERSFIELD.—The important news from Sebastopol
has had a favourable influence upon our market. While the
attendance of buyers has not been larger than usual, there has
been more activity both in the and the manufac-
turers' shops, and plain goods of all kinds have met with
readier sale. The operative classes generally, throughout this
district, are now in more regular and constant employment.
LEEDS.—Prices are firm, with a.tendency to advance. The
stocks are very low for the season in the clothiers' hands, and
in consequence the mills are in active operation. Business has
also been of the like active character in the warehouses for the
home trade ; and there are rather more orders giving out for
goods for shipping for the spring trade.
BRADFORD.—WOOI : The trade shows great firmness, and
the prices sought act as a barrier to business being done.
Noils and shorts without change.—Yarns : The increased price
for wool makes the spinners firm, at the quotations sought at
the opening of the month.—Pieces : The demand is steady,
and the goods as produced go into delivery. Prices very firm.
NOTTINGHAM.— No visible improvement in the lace or
hosiery trades. The home demand is at present our principal
business, but this is not so great as may be reasonably looked
for a week or two hence, when shopkeepers usually make their
autumnal purchases in London, Manchester, and other manu-
facturing towns. Yarn is still held at firm prices, though
there is not much doing for either lace or hosiery.
AMERICA.
ARRIVAL OF THE PACIFIC.
Br the United States mail steam-ship Pacific, Captin Nye,
which arrived in the Mersey at 3 10 p.m., on Saturday, we
have intelligence from New York to the sth inst. The Pacific
brought 130 passengers, and $370,000 in specie.
There has been no further arrivals of steamers from Eng
land; but we learn that the steamer Tennessee, from Havre
bound to New York, put into Halifax short of coal, on the 4th
of September. She had also sustained some damage, having
encountered heavy weather, but she would proceed on.to New
York on the same day.
A despatch from lialifax informs us, that owing to some
mismanagement in laying the submarine cable between New-
foundland and Cape Breton, it was lost when the vessel was
40 miles from Newfoundland. There is no intelligence of how
it was lost.
The crops of corn, grain, and cotton exceed all former esti-
mates.
We have received intelligence from Oswego, N.Y., of a
horrible tragedy—the murder by a young man of his father,
mother, and younger brother. It appears that the family con-
sisted of M. and Mary Fitzgerald, and their three sons, Patrick,
John, and James, aged 22,18, and 14 years, respectively. John,
the murderer, is a wayward young man, and often quarrelled
with his parents, and the last originated in consequence of
John refusing to attend the funeral of a brother, and he ridi-
culed the ceremony his parents being Romanists ; and
remarked, that if lie had a gun he would shoot the cross from
the hearse. On Wednesday, the 29th of August, he refused
to go to bed. About three o'clock in the morning he mur-
dered his father, mother, and brother, with an axe. The
prisoner was shortly afterwards arrested, and an inquest was
held on the bodies. The prisoner confessed that he did kill
his father, mother, and brother with an axe, about three
o'clock on the morning of Thursday, August 30th. That since
the funeral of his brother, on the 27th of May—which he did
not attend—his parents have been displeased with him, and he
became angry with them for their course, which anger had
grown upon him, till about a week ago, he tried to poison
them by putting some strychnine into a tumbler of sugar. It
was from the same bottle which was found in his trunk. He
said no one knew anything of his intention to kill them.
A terrible accident occurred on the 29th ult., on the Camden
and Amboy railroad, between New York and Philadelphia.
The morning mail train left Philadelphia at ten o'clock, and
reached Burlington ( twenty miles) a few minutes ahead of
time—say a quarter of an hour after eleven o'clock. There
were six passenger cars in the train. By the rules of the rail-
road company, the train first arriving at Burlington, which is
the place for the meeting of the trains, is required to wait ten
minutes, and if the other train does not arrive then the first is
entitled to the road : both trains to run, looking for each other.
There is but a single track.
The up-train waited, according to orders, for the train from
New York, and then came on. When about three miles this
side of Burlington, the trains met, saw each other in season to
reverse, reversed rapidly, and the train which had left Bur-
lington a few minutes before ran back for two miles, until it
had reached a cross road half a mile this side of Burlington.
At this point a waggon with two horses, driven by Dr.
Hennegan, an old physician, residing just out of Burlington,
was crossing the track as the train backed. The hind car
struck the horses, killing them instantly, and this caused that
car to be thrown from the track, while those in front piled up
on the top of it. Four out of the six cars were thrown off the
track in this manner, and three of them were utterly destroyed.
They were all well filled with passengers, nearly all of whom
were injured more or less seriously.
The number killed is stated to be 21 persons, and about 70
others are morsfror less seriously wounded. Many of the per-
sons were residents of Philadelphia. Among those killed on
the spot are mentioned the names of Major Boyce, of the
United States' coast survey, with his wife, and the Baron de
St. Andre, French Consul at Philadelphia. Mr. John F. Gil-
lespie, of Natchez, one of the wounded, had his left leg ampu-
tated, and the right foot taken off. His position being very
critical, this gentleman made his will, and deposited therein
his property to the value of $600,000, directing that in case of
his death or that of his wife the railway company snouiu ne
prosecuted to tho last cenC. of his fortune. Dr. Hannegan was
accompanied by his wife and two children, none of whom were
seriously injured.
On the morning of the 31st ult. another accident occurred
on the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad. The express train
ran over a cow, and three carriages were thrown off the line in
consequence. Ten persons were more or less wounded, four of
them seriously.
A third accident happened on the Brooklyn City Railroad,
caused by the breaking of a break chain when descending a
hill in Sands-street. A passenger who jumped from the carriage
was dangerously injured, and the conductor was also very
much bruised.
The Boston and Stonington Railway had been the scene of
an accident, in which ten persons were very severely injured.
It was caused by the removal of a rail, apparently by design.
A Boston paper publishes a communication from a German
recently from Halifax, giving an expos 6 of the progress of
enlistments to the Foreign Legion in the United States. He
states that the amount paid by the British Government up to
the middle of July was $25,000, and the number of recruits
enlisted was only about 600. The writer states that the
government has not relinquished the recruiting system in the
United States, but on the contrary, has a large number of
agents employed for the coming winter, who are expected to
induce many poor working men to visit Canada, under pro-
mise of employment. The recruits, on reaching Halifax, are
said to be cheated of half their promised pay, and imprisoned
and flogged for grumbling.
A telegraphic communication from Baltimore, of the 4th,
says :—" By the boat from Norfolk we have the most awful
account of the ravages of the yellow fever in that city yet
received. A letter from Dr. Morris says that there were no
less than 64 deaths in Norfolk on Monday. The Herald
gives the names of 35 persons who died on Sunday, and says
that 50 bodies were buried on that day. 50 coffins were sent
down from here on Saturday, and orders have been received
for 100 more. The boat up brought up a large number of
people who are flying from the scourge, some of whom have
taken refuge in the rotunda of the Exchange until they can
procure lodgings. A committee of citizens of Norfolk, headed
by Dr. John M`Cabe, passed through here to Washington, to
ask the President for permission to remove the remainder of
the inhabitants of their city to Fort Monroe. At Portsmouth
the fever is abating, the deaths averaging about ten a day."
Subscriptions for the relief of the sufferers by the yellow fever
were being collected in various parts of the Union.
A Washington writer, referring to the right of the Danish
Government to levy Sound dues, says :—The present treaty
will terminate in April next, when, if the toll continue to be
demanded, American shipmasters will be instructed not to
pay. If they do not pay, Denmark may attempt to collect the
tax by force. Thus the casus Lein will be clear, and Captain
Hollins will be immediately ordered to Copenhagen with the
Cyne, and will batter down that ancient capital exactly as he did
(Ireytown.
The flight of Santa Anna from Mexico is confirmed, and his
arrival at Havana reported. The cause of his abdication, it is
said, was a desire to save his private fortune, which is immense.
He is avaricious, and took his measures so well that he suc-
ceeded in his object. The skirmish at the National Bridge is
said to have been occasioned by the attempt of the pursuing
party to capture a particular box of gold, which, although
marked as the private property of Santa Anna, was claimed to
be government funds. But his highness had taken his mea-
sures too well and got off with the gold. It is the opinion of
my informant that Santa Anna ran away sooner than was ne-
cessary, that his course was by no means desperate, and that
his flight may have been a part of a secret arrangement with
his opponents, who preferred negociation to fighting.
Brief advices from Havana, to the 28th ultimo, report the
arrival of Santa Anna there, with his family, on the 24th. He
left again on the 26th for Caraccas.
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
NEW YORK, sth Sept.
No material change had taken place in the money market
during the past three days. The supply and demand were
about equalized, and the current rates were quoted 7 to 8 per
cent. for first-class commercial notes and call loans. In
exchange the business for the Pacific was very brisk, and the
supply of bills was equal to the demand. The closing rates
were :—Bills on London, 9k to 10 per cent. premium; Paris,
f. 5.121-, 60 days, and f.5.08L short sight; Hamburgh, 36i
to 361.
The New York Shipping List, of September 5, says :
September opens auspiciously as regards finance and trade.
The business community is strong in credit and resources,
and throughout the domains of commerce a growing activity
is apparent. Owing to the universal contraction of trade for
many months past, in connection with the diminution of im-
ports, amounting to upwards of thirty-seven million dollars
since Ist January, it is not very probable that there will be
any great or sudden unfavourable change in the money mar-
ket this fall, though temporary fluctuations in the rates are to
be expected as the volume of business increases and enterprise
receives a new impetus. The foreign trade of New York con-
tinues in a comparatively healthy condition. The total
exports for the eight months, exclusive of specie, is but
$2,381,553 less than for the corresponding period of last year ;
and the falling off in the specie exports is shown to be
$1,049,127. There can be no doubt now of abundant cereal
crops to increase the general wealth of the country, should
Europe need our surplus, of which there can be no reasonable
doubt.
CoTTox.—The market during the past three days has been
characterised by the same inactivity and languor as noticed
for several weeks past, and the market closes tamely. The
telegraph advises a decline of -ie. in the New Orleans market,
consequent upon the large receipts of the new staple, but the
effect of this reduction seems to have been neutralised by a
corresponding rise in freights. The sales for the week do not
probably exceed 5000 to 6000 bales.

Decrease 95,092 49,086 65,951 4,733
In regard to the growing crop, Messrs. Talcott and Co., in
thdr CirClthir Otli instant., state :—" Our advices pre more
favourable since our last, as the wet weather complained of in
Alabama has been succeeded by a warm dry spell. In the
Atlantic States it is stated that the plant is a week or ten days
later than last year, but thrifty and well fruited. From the
region tributary to New Orleans the accounts are very favour-
able, and our correspondents generally disposed to estimate
very largely. Although we are well aware that it is very dif-
ficult to approximate the probable yield at this period of the
season, yet, as showing the opinions now entertained of the
prospects of the crop by some well informed parties at New
Orleans, we annex an extract from our correspondent's letter
of the 22nd ult.:—` The news about the Cotton crop is favour-
able, although we occasionally hear of some complaint from
different sections. Upon the whole it is generally supposed
that the crop will be about 3,300,000 to 3,400,000 bales, which,
added to the remainder of last year's crop, will show the
largest supplies ever received.' "
BREADSTUFFS.—The flour market had been depressed
throughout, and prices given way 75c. to 87ic. per barrel since
the 28th ult. There had been some purchases for shipment
both to England and France at the reduced currency, but so
far not to an extent sufficient to give firmness to holders, who
still evince anxiety to sell. Wheat had declined 15c. to 20c.
per bushel, the supplies being still confined to imports from
southern ports. The prices of Indian corn were 2c. to 3c. per
bushel lower than on this day week, but there was still no
accumulation of stock.
PROVISIONL—Pork was 12ic. firmer for mess, and 25c. to
372 c. for prime; the demand moderate, owing to extreme high
prices ruling, which were sustained solely by the reduced
pply and light arrivals. There was a decrease in the stock
during the month of 24,659 bbls. The market for beef was
firmly supported ; the stock was but 6,762 pkgs. on the Ist
instant, against 15,119 same time last month. Butter and
cheese continued in fair request. _
SALT.—Liverpool was in better supply, with an active de-
mand, prices are well supported. _ _
Co&L.—Liverpool, with light receipts, continued firm. 236
tons Blundell's sold, to arrive, at $8,75.
IRoN.—Scotch pig, in view of the small supply and favour-
able accounts from abroad, continued to advance, and some
300 tons had changed hands at 05, cash, and $36,53 to $37,
6 mos. Bars were very firm, with sales of refined English at
$67,50, and common $62,50, 6 mos. Of scrap, which is scarce
and wanted, we notice 175 tons West India No. 1, at $37,121,
cash ; and 100 ditto extra City, $4O, 6 mos. English sheet was
firm at 31c. to 4ic.
FREIGHTS.—There was an increased business, with an up-
ward tendency. Liverpool :—Cotton, 5-32 d. to 3-16 d.; flour,
per barrel, ls. 6d. ; rosin, per barrel, is. 9d. to 2s. ; heavy
goods, cheese, &c., per ton, 15s. to 20s. ; grain, per bushel,

THE WAR.
THE
FALL OF SEBASTOPOL.
TELEGRAPHIC DESPATCHES.
WAR DEPARTMENT, Sept. 10.
Lord Panmure has received the following telegraphic
despatch from General Simpson, dated
CRIMEA, Sept. 10.
The casualties, I regret to say, are somewhat heavy.
No General Officer killed.
Names shall be sent as soon as possible.
A supplement of the Moniteur of Monday publishes the
following :
The Minister of War received to-day (Sept. 10), at 3 p.m.,
the following telegraphic despatch from General Pelissier
BnANcrox REDOUBT, Sept. 9, 3 a.m.
Karabelnaia and the south part of Sebastopol no longer
exist.
The enemy perceiving our solid occupation of the Malakhoff,
decided upon evacuating the place, after having destroyed and
blown up, by mines, nearly all the defences.
Having passed the night in the midst of my troops, I can
assure you that everything in the Karnabelnaia is blown up,
and from what I could see, the same must be the case in front
of our left line of attack.
This immense success does the greatest honour to our troops.
I will send you detailed account of our losses during the
day, which after so many obstinate combats, must be consi-
derable.
To-morrow I shall be enabled to form an estimate of the
results of this great day's work, a great portion of the honour
of which is due to Generals Bosquet and MacMahon.
Everything is quiet on the Tchernaya, and we are vigilant
there.
The Minister of War at Paris received, at 10 o'clock on
Monday morning, the following news :
CRIMEA, September 9, 8 p.m.
This morning I ascertained that the enemy has sunk his
steamers. Their work of destruction continued under the fire
of our shells. The explosion of mines successively and on
different points makes it our duty to defer our entrance into
the place, which presents the spectacle of an immense confla-
gration. Closely pressed by our fire, Prince Gortschakoff has
demanded an armistice to carry away the remainder of the
wounded near fort St. Paul. The bridge, as a precautionary
measure, has been broken down by his orders.
I am collecting the returns of our losses, and you shall have
them as soon as ready. All goes on well. We are vigilant on

themselves are sold at a low price.
A CAST-STEEL BELL, weighing 5 cwt., has been placed in

FALKIRK TRYST.—The September sheep market was held
on Monday last week, on the usual stance at Stenhouse-muir.
The show of stock was the smallest which has been witnessed
at a September market for the last quarter of a century.
There were few dealers on the ground, and the sales were any-
thing but brisk.
A PRIVATE in the Royal Artillery, John Neale by name, has

forced into Glasgow 87,780,000 gallons, being on an average
14,280,000 gallons per day. Adding to this the daily supply
furnished to the south side of the river by the Gorbals Water

WHAT THE GERMANS THINK OF THE FALL OF SEBASTO-
roL.—The correspondent of the Daily News, writing from
Hamburg, on the 11th instant, says :—" The glorious news of
the fall of Sebastopol was received here with great enthusi-
asm and general rejoicing. The quotations of all descriptions
of funds, shares, and other securities—with the exception of
Russian stock—have advanced, and large purchases have been
made. It is generally expected that in consequence of the
great success in the Crimea, something more will be attempted
in the Baltic before the close of the campaign. It is consi-
dered here not too late to strike a blow at Cronstadt or Revel,
and now is the time, when the enemy is panic-struck by the
loss of his supposed impregnable strongholds in the south."
Loss OF A TRANSPORT.—The Tagus, arrived at South-
ampton, brings intelligence of the loss of the Canterbury
transport, No. 80, off Viana, on the sth instant. She was on
her passage from Corfu to Portsmouth, with 63 rank and file,
49 women, and 58 children, all of whom were saved. The
crew, consisting of 30 men, have arrived home by the Tagus.
'JOHN CARLISLE, who had embarked with his wife by the
fitwernzcz- for Southampton, was noticed by the
passengers to be in a state of lutoxioation, and was frequently
remonstrated with by the captain and others. Presently he
was missed, and on arriving at the latter port on Sunday, it
was found that he had fallen down the hold amongst some
forty or fifty horned eattle, where he had been trodden upon,
and suffocated in the animals' filth.
CURIOUS CHARGE or FORGERT.—A young man of respect-
able family, named Boiron, was lately tried by the Court of
Assizes for forgery, and two other respectable young men,
named Seailles and Piquet, were tried with him as his accom-
plices. The case was rather curious :—Seailles and Piquet,
who are students, had to undergo examinations, in order to
obtain the degree of bachelor of sciences ; but fearful of being
rejected, they got Boiron to personate them, and he passed
the examination for them under their names, and was passed
in their place. To obtain a degree it is necessary for the can-
didates to sign certain documents, and Boiron, on one occa-
sion, signed the name of Seailles, and on another, that of
Piquet. The jury acquitted Seailles and Piquet, and convicted
Boiron. The court sentenced the latter to three years' im-
prisonment, and 100 fr. fine.
ABD-EL-KADER IN PARIS.—Abd-el-Kader has arrived in
Paris. His health continues to improve. He brought with
him some magnificent presents for the Empress and the
ladies of the court. The present for the Empress consists of
a pair of slippers so richly set with precious stones as to be
worth 20,000 piastres, and a rich carpet for the side of a bed.
The Princess Mathilde is to receive a rich coffee service in
chased silver, in the fashion of Constantinople, and on the
salver the Emir has caused to be engraved some Arab verses,
complimentary to the Princess. A splendid embroidered
napkin covers the salver, and it alone is worth 5,000 piastres.
Accompanying the service is a quantity of Mocha coffee, and
also a mill to grind it, so that the Princess will be able to
drink coffee exactly as it is prepared in the seraglio. The
other objects brought by the Emir consist of pipes, nargilhos,
carpets, scarfs, and other oriental articles.
A "GENTLEMAN" SWlNDLER.—Considerable excitement
has been caused in Shrewsbury during the past week. An
individual who had, some twenty years ago, resided in that
town, returned thither recently, and renewed his acquaintance
with several families. He was accompanied by a young lady,
represented as his daughter, and both received invitations to
partake of the hospitality of many of the principal residents.
The "gentleman" stated that he had just succeeded to a large
fortune, and purposed settling down in Shrewsbury; and suc-
ceeded in obtaining loans of money to the amount of several
hundred pounds from professional gentlemen, giving as se-
curity bills drawn by his " Irish tenantry?' Circumstances,
however, awakened suspicion that the bills were not genuine,
and the "gentleman" was watched by the police, who followed
the young lady from her lodgings in Shrewsbury to the rail-
way station, and thence to Birmingham, where she was joined
by her " papa." Subsequent events dispelled the relationship
of the parties, and the police took the gentleman into custody,
toThperosyecouuntge
and before the magistrates. Concealed upon his person was

Monday last about 120 of the boys
employed in some of the ship-building yards in the town
struck work for an advance of wages of from 4s. and 4s. 6d. to
ss. per week. In thus following the reprehensible example
sometimes set them by "children of a larger growth," they
were unfortunately the cause of throwing several men out of
employment, whose work depended in some measure upon the
presence of the boys. In other respects the strike—though
bearing heavy enough upon some of the parents of those con-
cerned in it—was rather amusing than disastrous, so long as
it lasted, and a little mirth was created by the firmness which
they threatened to display before they would "give in," and
the annoyance to which they subjected all "blacklegs" and
" black faces," it might be added, who would not "come out "
and aid them in their struggle. On being talked with on the
subject they expressed themselves quite as sanguine as their
seniors usually do on such occasions regarding the result of
their strike. 'Ay," said they, " the masters can get men, but
they cannot get boys, aud • then wha'll beet the rivets ? The
ship may joost lie for twa or three weeks; it 'ill no spoil, and it
does us guid to be idle a wee." The result showed that they
had not miscalculated very widely, for on Wednesday the
asked-for advance was made, and all hands went to work.

FATAL EXPLOSION.—A sad accident occurred on Friday
afternoon, at Messrs. Booth and Vickers' naphtha works, Hors-
ley-fields, Wolverhampton. Shortly after two o'clock a terrific
explosion was heard, and a sheet of flame rushed through the
houses adjoining the works, driving out the windows and
scorching the rooms. One of the houses was occupied by a
woman named Christina Garrality, who was near her confine-
ment, and who, with her child, four years of age, were alone
in the house. On hearing the noise, she caught up her child
and rushed out of the house ; but the devouring flames de-
prived her child of life, and burned her body so fearfully that
her recovery is hopeless. The other house was occupied by
Elizabeth Harley, her daughter, and an infant. Harley
snatched up the child, and wrapping it in her dress, ran into
a pantry, which preserved them from severe injury; but the
daughter was severely burned, and conveyed to the hospital.
On the opposite side of the house, the volumes of smoke and
duopwwoitfht flames.

A ladder was sent for, but before it arrived, he sank down
into the burning mass, and perished. Several engines were
shed, but
speedily on the spot, and with a copious supply of water from
the canal the flames were prevented from extending, and in
about an hour were subdued. It appears probable that the
accident was caused by a cinder or spark from the furnace
falling into a cask of naphtha, which ran n tLe pipes and re-
sulted in the sudden explosion. Large casks of nap4ha out-

THE CHARGE OF PARRICIDE AT BATH.-Thomas Tutton,
charged with attempting to poison his father, was finally exa-
mined on Friday last. The presence of arsenic in the food
given to the father was clearly proved. The prisoner, who
reserved his defence, was committed for trial.
las. NORTON, the wife of a clerk in the goods office of the
South-eastern Railway, expired on Saturday morning from the
effects of the collision, and another of the sufferers, Mrs.
Snowden, remains in a most critical condition. She has a
compound fracture of the left leg, and the bone has not been
set. Mr. Skinner, who received a compound fracture of the
left leg, and the other sufferers are going on favourably.
RECANTATION OF SIR WILLIAM DUNBA.R.-Sir William
Dunbar, who some years ago was excommunicated by Bishop
Skinner, for schismatical practices, and who defeated the
Primus in the civil courts, and put him to costs amounting to
some £1,500, having some time ago resigned his incumbency
at St. Paul's, Aberdeen, and returned to England, with a view
to take English preferment, has been refused institution,
until the process of Bishop Skinner should be withdrawn. In
consequence of this he applied to the College of Bishops in
Scotland, with a formal expression of his sorrow and contri-
tion " for having seceded from the Scottish Episcopal
Church," whereupon Bishop Skinner has, with the unanimous
consent of his Synod, granted him absolution.
A YOUTH was charged at Bow-street on Saturday with
stealing the watch of an Egyptian engineer, M. Chahata Issa.
The magistrate decided on committing him for trial. " Give
me my watch," said the Egyptian gentleman, who spoke what
little he knew of the English in an animated style. "Me no
be bothered in dis way. Me no appear again. I have wasted
mush time since already, and I waste no more unless you pay
to me a guinea for every hour !" The worthy foreigner was
assured he would not be detained long at the Old Bailey.
" The old who ?" The process of the trial was explained to
him, but it was long before the officer could get him to accept
the notice to attend at the sessions. The prisoner avowed
his innocence, and complained that the Egyptian nearly
strangled him.
LONG SPEECHES IN PARLIAMENT.-Speaking of Lord
Stanley's plan for terminating the session in June, the In-
verness Courier says :-" A great deal might be done if the
newspapers would unite, and agree to cut down the reports
to mere summaries, except in the case of a statesman who
really had something to say. There need be no fear of
difference of opinion arising -leave the question to the re-
porters' gallery, where there is only one opinion, namely,
that the members are nearly all humbugs, and that all the
speeches are three-fourths too long. If a talking bore could
hear the comments that come between his sentences, I don't
know whether he would be amused. ' That's right, say it
again-you haven't repeated it more than nine times yet.'
`Bah ! trying to pick out a long word, because a short one
would make it clear; he is talking nonsense.' Why, the
last speaker said that; what are you stealing his notions for?'
`Looking up, actually, as if he thought anybody would take
down such bosh,' &c. Another way would be to print, for a
fortnight, all that the members say, and exactly as they
say it."
HORRIBLE MURDER IN FRANCE.-A horrible murder has
just been discovered at Belville, close to Paris. On Saturday
last, the inhabitants of the Rue des Annelets, having re-
marked that a lady named Gaillard, aged 55, living at No. 7,
had not made her appearance for a couple of days, called the
attention of the police to the fact. The house, which con-
sisted of but one story, and had no porter, having been
opened by order of the magistrate, the body of the unfortu-
nate lady was found lying upon the floor in a pool of coagu-
lated blood. It was ascertained that the murderer had used
some heavy instrument to inflict the wounds which caused
the death of his victim. The chest of drawers, desk, and
every other kind of repository, had been ransacked, apparently
for the family papers of the deceased ; but a pair of diamond
ear-rings and a diamond ring were still on her person, and
two gold watches were hanging up near the bed untouched.
The murderer has not yet been discovered.-*Gilignani.
THREE YOUTHS DROWNED.-A very deplorable casualty
occurred on Thursday afternoon, in the neighbourhood of He-
versham, which has occasioned much painful excitement in that
neighbourhood, three of the youths belonging to the Hever-
sham Grammar School having met with an untimely end by
drowning, while bathing on Heversham-marsh. It appears
that the head-master had given permission to a number of the
scholars to bathe at the spot mentioned, and one of the elder
pupils, Edward Joseph Godwin, who was about 20 years of
age, and who was one of the unfortunate three who perished,
went before to look out for a proper spot ; the under-master,
Mr. John Parker, shortly after followed, with a number of the
other scholars, in company with the music-master, Mr. Hud-
son. Godwin and two other youths named Cowell and Rigby,
18 and 19 years of age respectively, were in the water when
the second-master arrived, and were seen by another youth,
Edwin James Horicks, an acquaintance of theirs, but not a
schoolfellow, to launch a piece of wood into the water. It
floated, and they were about it, when Godwin, who was
nearest, called out for assistance, appearing to be out of his
depth, and Cowell and Rigby immediately went to his
aid. Cowell reached him first, and Rigby came up just
afterwards, but they both went under water, as did also God-
win. Both perished in their effort to save their companion.
Another scholar, John Taylor Mawson, about 15 years of age,
went into the water to look for the bodies, but nothing could
be seen of them, and it was not till after 8 o'clock that they
were recovered near where they were observed to go down, a
number of people speedily repairing to the spot, and two boats
being procured to assist in the search. At the place where
the bodies were found there is a break in the sand, and it is
very deep. The second-master had examined the spot the day
before, and did not observe then any break in the sand. An
inquest was held the following day, at Heversham, on the body
of Mr. E. G. Godwin, and a verdict returned of " Accidentally
drowned."-Kendal Mercury.
POPULATION AND TILE POOR Liw.-On Tuesday a return
was published of the population of the unions and parishes
(without unions) in England, Scotland, and Ireland, showing
the amount of workhouse accommodation in each, for the year
ending the 31st of December, 1854. It hence appears that in
England and Wales, the population amounting to 17,827,407,
the workhouee .ecommodation in 1854 was 211,669. In Ire-
land, with a population of 0,552,055, the workhouse accommo-
dation on the 30th of December, 1864, was 214,281. In the
return from Scotland, as is generally the case, the secretary of
the Board of Supervison has not taken the trouble to cast out
the grand totals. The following is the amount of populat ion
and workhouse accommodation in the counties of England-
viz.,
in Bedford, 129,430 (population), and 2,080 (work-
house accommodation) ; in Berks, 199,139 and 4,031; in
Bucks, 143,629 and 2,489 ; in Cambridge, 191,338 and

Riding, 192,222 and 1,751; and in the West Riding, 1,293,798
and 6,921.
TRIAL OP THE LUXEMBOURG RAILWAY DIRECTORS:.
The " tribunal of first instance" sat on the 6th instant at
Brussels, for the purpose of trying Messrs. John Ashwell,
John Masterman, and Sir William Magnay, prosecuted, ex
officio, upon charges of fraud, in connexion with Luxembourg
railway shares. Mr. Ashwell, who has long been in prison,
and subject to rigorous seclusion, was the only one present of
the three accused. Among the English witnesses for the pro-
secution heard were Messrs. Matthew Uzielli, Thomas Cox-
head, and Thomas Klose, of Nottingham, all three immedi-
ately connected with the Luxembourg line. The main charge
against the defendants appears to be—for having converted to
their own benefit and purposes, or to other purposes considered
illegal, several thousand shares, amounting to 3,000 in 1849,
and 7,500 in 1851; for having received interest on portions of
the same ; and for directing these misapplications to be en-
tered in the books or balance sheets of the company as sums
disbursed for purchases of land, and for defraying legal, engi-
neering, and parliamentary" expenses. In reply to the
question from the judge, " Whether the shares which were
sent to Belgium by the defendants were accounted for in the
company's books under the latter head ?" Mr. Coxhead ob-
served, Yes ;in England, when railway grants are made,
divers secret expenses ensue. They are regarded as perfectly
regular, and are entered as " parliamentary" expenses. They
may be thus explained :—" When a line is to be constructed,
the first thing done is to employ an agent called parliamen-
tary. He is a person learned in the law, but not a regular
barrister recognised by the courts. He is a sort of private
agent. When a railway grant is conceded in England, it is
necessary to give shares to landholders, to owners of property
on river banks, and to newspaper directors. If they choose to
pay up the first call, they may. In case shares rise, they do.
If shares fall, they are not asked for the difference. The
company then purchase of them these shares, and pay the
difference in order to balance the general account of share-
holders." This system, so detrimental apparently as regards
the general interests of bond fide shareholders, seemed to asto-
nish the court, and all the uninitiated, and may be fairly said
to be founded upon that reversed of " tails you lose—heads I
win." On the 7th the Tribunal Correctional acquitted the
directors of the Luxembourg Railway of the charge of em-
bezzlement :—John Ashwell, as being already proscribed ;
William Magnay and John Masterman, because offence not
sufficiently proven by evidence.
AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS.—The report of the Select
Committee of the House of Lords on the best mode of obtain.
ing accurate agricultural statistics from all parts of the
United Kingdom, with the evidence taken before them, has
just been issued. Mr. Leone Levi, who attended the Statis-
tical Congress, held at Brussels, two years ago, which took
this question into consideration, was one of the witnesses ex-
amined. He had prepared a plan for the collection of such
statistics, which lie submitted last year to the Society of Arts.
He proposed the establishment of a central board, authorised
to collect annual returns of the total acreage, and also the
acreage of the several crops, of each parish in England and
Wales, through the local Boards of Guardians, and in Scot-
land through the Highland Society. In his evidence, how-
ever, Mr. Levi stated that he had seen reason to doubt the
_ -
expediency of using the agency of the Poor-law Guardians,
owing, as he says, to the unpopularity which surrounds them,
and the reasons which they have themselves given, that they
cannot obtain the co-operation of the agriculturists, and that
gentlemen refuse to co-operate, owing to the small remune-
ration and the prevalence of party feeling among them. Seeing
what has been done by the Registrar-General in the collection
of the census, Mr. Levi considers that would be the best
medium through which to collect these statistics, which he
thinks might be obtained in the same way, by leaving
schedules to be filled up with the required information, and
forwarded to the Central Board on or before the first of June
in each year. Inspectors should also be appointed on the
recommendation of the Inclosure and Copyhold Commis-
goners, to make an inspection and estimate of the crops in
September, and transmit the latter to the Central Board.
This board should be in connection with the Board of Trade,
in order that nothing of a political character should be as-
cribed to it. The committee recommend, in their report, that
the Board of Trade should be entrusted with the general
superintendence of the collection of the statistics in Great
Britain, through the medium of the Poor-law machinery in
England and Wales, and of the Highland Society in Scotland ;
and that the Irish Government, in continuing to superintend
the collection for Ireland through the constabulary, should
consult with the Board of Trade from time to time on the
subject, for the purpose of securing uniformity in the returns.

AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS.
ATTENTION has again been called to the importance
of obtaining. more correct information as to the supply
of agricultural produce, by the publication of the
recommendation of the committee of the House of
Lords on the subject. Great difficulty appears to be
made about the unwillingness of farmers to afford the
necessary information, many of them believing it to
be against their interest to make known the extent of
their produce or the productiveness of their fields,
upon the supposition that it may influence their land-
lords in the question of rent. The most, however, that
can be expected from such returns is an approximation
to the truth, such as the extent of acreage under
different crops and the probable 'yield, and this
information might be obtained without reference to
the prejudices of individual agriculturists. The
machinery is already provided by the Poor Law, and
might be made available with very little additional
expenditure. Once a year the overseer, constable,
or other parochial officer of each parish, should make
a return to the 'Clerk of the Board of Guardians, of
the munber 'of acres in his parish under each several
crop, with appended remarks as to the estimated
yield, which might be near enough to the truth for
all praCtical purposes. These returns, collected in
each tnien, should be forwarded to the Central Board,
and,the gross totals pablished for general information.
By pursuing this plan for several years, comparisons
might be easily made of one year With another, and
then 'taking into amount the foreign supplies from .the
returns of importdtion, some data would be formed for
'judging the amount of annual consumption, and the
means' of supply. It is not very difficult for an-expe-
rienced agriculitarist to average the acreable produce
of a large district, and all that is wanted is a 'correct
return of the -cumber of acres under cultivation.
