Gene, w inee foundered, with every human being ou board. I b ; w authorities at Bombay, however, to set all doubts sr ro d, sent oat two powerful steamers in search of her, and, wo a* to the wort account, not the s li ghtest discovery had b o on made that would tend to clear up the mystery that at r ind surrounds the fats of the vessel.

Bougie, Aeo. 30.—Since the departureof the owe:deed wit a t he 19th ultimo up to the t. ho the month the business transacted in the import market was not to that ex tent that the favourable accounts from the agricultural die peole to look for, and that usually taken Mots encouragedp hoe a the approach of the fine season. The local dealers Ofd teen naming about and inquiring for most r t he staple articles of iutport from Europe, t h e w h i s k gave • semblanc e of briskness to the ra cket, but , m owing to the absence of orders from Sci - ode and whoa. subonlinate marts, their offers, although m oat instances exhibiting an advance upon the prices cur m g. in May prior to the setting in of the mins, were, with few ei:epuoos, without spirit, while importers were much firmer holders thin they were at the period mentioned. Since the celebration, however, of Cocoanut day on the 25th of this month, when the natives consider the boisterous wea ther to have terminated, there had been an improved feel ing amongst the dealers; and increased offers had been rude for tamp articles, and a considerable amount of busi aess has taken place in cotton manufactures. The accounts of the growing crops were in general favour sble from the agricultural districts, but in some puts, particularly in Ouserat, the fall of rain had been scanty, and a further supply was anxiously looked for as requisite to ensure an abundant yield. Money was plentiful, and the bulks had lstely reduced their rates of discount 2 per cent. Upon the whole, the prospects were good for the opening tenon of activity ; and when communications with the coast were freely ns.established, and the inland traders appeared in the market, there would be an extension of business and im proved prices for imports.

A notice of this meeting and of the company assembled has appeared in this and other papers; but we are indebted to the Agricultural Gazette for the following par ticulars of what took place on the occasion. The objects, interest, and beneficial consequences of such meetings, are obvious enough. Sic R. Peel invited a party of noblemen and gentlemen, large landed proprietors, dis tinguished for their seal in the cause of agricultural improve ment, together with some M or sixty tenant-farmers, to meet the most distinguished of our practical and scientific men—" men," as he observed, " who had acquired their patent of nobility by the devotion of their lives to science, and by making their talents and acquirements conducive to the Feat end of diffusing knowledge, and of practically im proving the condition of their fellow.ereatures "—that all might communicate whatever they thought likely to be useful or interesting with reference to improved cultivation As the purely scientific men have other opportunities of bringing their several experiences before the public we shall confine ourselves to the reports of the practical men ; and when such men talk, not of what may be, but of what has been, done—of inereaaisg produce from ten to fifty bushels the acre—the greater public whom we address may be as willing and attentive listeners as the farmers assembled at Drayton Manor .—• • • Lord TALBOT observed that although a farmer all his life, he was obliged to admit that he did not know how to grow crops till he this year went into Worcestershire, to visit his friend Mr. F. Woodward ; and as that gentleman was present he hoped that he would explain for the informa tion of the meeting, the principles on which he so conducted his farm as to be able to grow the splendid crops he had witnessed, for he thought that his wheat would this year average .50 bushels per sere. Mr. WOODWARD said that in his opittion thorough drain ing was the foundation of all good htubandry, without which manures and skill are thrown away. Some undrained lead had come into his occupation, heavy land, which only produced 101 bushels of wheat per acre; he immediately dmined it 3 feet deep, subsoiled it, dress ed it with burnt clay, and the first year obtained from it 51 bushels. lie re garded the extensive burning of clay land as a most im portant prestige. It rendered the mil so much more friable sod senetieffible, and enabled the farmer to work it with amok lime bores labour. The effects of burnt clay upon all green crops was wonderful, a most important fact which could not be too strongly impressed upon the mind, as being very essential to the growth of corn, especially when consumed upon the land by sheep, eating at the same time a little oil-cake or refuse corn. He had not, however, found advantage in the use of Italian rye-grass, which he thought undeserving the praise it had received. The treading of sheep was highly advantageous to the wheat crop, provided the land was thoroughly drained and subaoiled. Its order to secure the requisite amount of pressure, he had not only employed sheep, but hones, or even men, who he found could tread down land for Is. 6d. an acre. He had also found advan tage under some circumstances in the use of an instrument which he called a peg roller. This was formed of an elm-wood cylinder, studded with oak pegs about four inches apart ; it proved to be a most effectual implement when drawn over the land, imitating as it did the consolidating power exer cised by the feet of a flock of sheep. He regarded pry/ling down the land as opposing an invincible obstacle to the ope rations of grubs and wireworms. As to dead follows, he entirely objected to them as wasteful and useless. On his clay land, when in turn for fallow, he planted vetches, and on his gravel, rye, and rye and vetches. For cleaning his stubble. after harvest he employed the implement called a two edged " skim," which be strongly recommended as a cheap and most valuable modern invention. Mr. Woodward then pointed out what he regarded as the best manner of breaking up inferior pastures arid converting them into arable ; and concluded a very instructive speech by forcibly pointing out the absolute necessity of sending back to the land whatever is removed by a crop, and by ex pressing his entire agreement in opinion with Mr. Woolryche Whitmore, Mr. Huttable ' and others, that farming, properly and e ffi ciently carried out, with capital and skill, may be made as profitable an investment as railways or other branches of commerce. Being asked whether he held his land on lease, Mr. Woodward replied that he did. But even if he bad not, he, nevertheless, was of opinion that the ex penses he incurred in the improvement of his land would have answered hie purpose, for his improved wheat crop re paid those expenses immediately. Al to leases, he attached little importance to them, provided there existed something like tenant-sight, which would bylaw ensure to the outgoing tenant the whole unexhausted value of the improvements he had made; whether this was to be paid by landlord or in coming tenant was, he thought, of no importance. He trusted that the legislature would see the necessity of passing some enactment that would secure this right; otherwise it was not to be expected that tenants would expend their ca pital on land. Mr. Woodward having expreancl a desire that Mr. Mechi would bring under the notice of the meeting the result of his high farming in Essex, Mr. Macin responded to the call. His practice in agri culture coincided so nearly with Mr. Woodward's, that it was only necessary to say that he grew alternately grain and root or leguminous crops, endeavouring as much as possible to grow wheat alternate years. He had originally drained his land 2 feet 8 inches deep, with pipes and stones, at a con siderable expense; but since he had had the good fortune to meet with Mr. Parkes he had amended his errors, and war draining more deeply and effectually with pipes alone at one• third the cost. He rented some land adjoining his own; although he held but a seven years' lease, he drained It feet deep with 1 inch pipes, at a cost of from 355. to 50s. per acre. Ile could not afford to deprive himself of Me benefit of drainage. He found it very unprofitable to farm such land undrained. The very first wheat crop remune rated him for the whole cost. The result of his improve ments at Tiptree had been to double the produce of his farm and of his labour. A portion of it was formerly a swamp, not producing 5.. per acre. He had been entreated this year e l a gardener in the neighbourhood to let those 4 acres to him, at an annual rental of 5/. per acre. He had removed 31 miles of unnecessary banks and fence,. Taking the arable acreage of the United Kingdom, he thought they might safely dispense with 500,000 miles of unnecessary fencing, which, with its timber, displaced much food and labour. He considered the agriculture of this country in a very back ward and unsatisfactory state compared with its manufac tures. The agricultural mechanical appliances were rude, costly, and unprofitable. The farm buildings generally were bad, and uncentrically placed, causing a national loss of some Z 6111061; each ton of produce or manure costing an average carriage of 6d. per mile, renders the position of the buildings an important national consideration. Waggons were a most unphilosophical contrivance. It was quite clear that a long, light, low cart on two wheels, having an area of capacity equal to a waggon, and only costing half as much, was a much more sensible and profitable mode of conveyance. The question wan not now an open one, having been thoroughly discussed and decided upon at the London Farmers' Club; therefore, the sooner the waggons were got rid of the better. With regard to the quantity of seed, his experiments (con. ducted now for three years and publicly recorded) had uniformly been in favour of thin sowing, say from 4 to 5 leeks of wheat, and 6 to 7 pecks of barley and oat.. Some of the beet farmers in hi- ainghbourbooel adopted this system successfully. It was highly Important in a national point of view that this question should be settled ; for if the quan tities he bad named were available, adieu at once to the ne cessity for foreign imports. It appeared to be admitted on all hands, that if a bushel of wheat vegetated, it was an ample seeding ; and it was reasonable that it should be so, because if each good kernel produced only one ear, con taining 48 kernels (and that was not a large one), there was no allow/ince for increase by branching or tillering, which we kne would take place to a considerable extent in well farmed land, containing an abundance of organic matter. Thin sowing delayed the ripening three] or four days ; consolidation by pressure prevented the develop ment and action of wireworm and slug. He had found salt tended to a similar result. He salted all his wheats at the rate of 4 to 8 bushels per acre, and was determined to use mach more. He knew a gentleman in North amptonshire whose wheat crops could scarcely ever be kept from going down, until he used salt, which had effectually kept it standing. He (Mr. M.) salted the manure in his yards, He found that it sweetened them ; be supposed it fixed the ammonia. It was a singular fac t that whilst salt tended to preserve animal substances It on the contrary rapidly decomposed vegetable matter. ft was a cheep alkali of native production, carting only about 20s. to 30s. per ton, whilst all other alkalies were nearly eight times as dear. He strongly recommended the abundant me of bones, with and without acid, for root and green crops. It was evi dent that the bones formed in our growing animals, and in our cows from the produce of the farm, cost us sd. per pound, or 4.51. per ton. Now, if we could replace these, as we can do, by bone-dust, at 71. per ton, it was clearly pulley to use them. He considered the waste of good liquid portions of the manure in most farm-yards a great national calamity. It was a great mistake ever to allow water to fall on manure. Water was a very heavy article. A thousand gallons weighed 10,0001 be., and were ex pensive to cart. He had heard farmers say when rain was falling, that they should then litter their yards and make manure! Straw and water, in fact. He found in practice that animals did well on their own excrements and straw under Meer that they consolidated the mass until it was four feet thi ck, when it would cut out lthe a good dungheap, and be fit to carry on the land. Bat if rain water were allowed to wish this mass, an injitrious effect resulted both to the animal and to the manure. He could not afford to allow his manure to be well washed in the yards by drainage front the buildings, and afterwards to be washed dried, and mangled by putting it out in heaps and turning over. It was a waste of time and of money. He found that his crops grew better with unwashed manure. A farm yard should be like a railway terminus—covered in, but amply ventilated. There was comfort and profit in keeping everything dry. It did away with the amenity for water - cart. and tanks . the liquid portions of the excrements being , just sufficient to moisten the straw and burnt earth, or other absorbent material. He admired and practised, to a certain extent, Mr. Huxtable's system of placing animals on boards. It would answer in a compact farm with good roads, and in cold climates, to feed sheep in the yards on roots. In mild climates, and dry friable soils, it was most advantageous to consume the roots and green crops on the land by folding with sheep. There was no ex pence of carting off and carting back manure. Farmers had found out that the whole of the excrements were thus applied to the land, whereas in open yards with untroughed build ings, much was washed out and wasted. He hoped to see the time when tenants would consider it to be their interest (as in parts of Scotland) to pay 10s. per sere more rent for properly farmed, permanent, and convenient buildings, and drainage, in lieu of the miserable and misplaced dilapidations of the present time. It was, no doubt, partly this difference that caused the Scotch rents to appear higher than our own. HO was a decided anteater to the depth of at least two feet. It was a cheap and effective way of • rid of strong rooted weeds, their crowns being gene y just below the ords nary depth of ploughing. He did this in dry weather, and with lbeamillomee of a heavy Crolithill roller and scarifier, maim bleliews cheaply, quickly, and efficiently. He drilled kis eimilentintervals of about 9 inches, so as to hoe them ui Onmelei bearrhoe. 1 t mat about ls. per acre. It was flesMiffliamplalons and efficacious than the hand-hoe, and may mot emediniik the amount. He strongly advocated the obsidians didimehe e and also of chalk on heavy clays dab:kW la selmmene matter. It had b. en proved that much more prawn bed smadted from oil.cake 141611 than where an equivalent amment was expended in corn. Good high farming was by lew the most profitable ; the starvation prin ciple was • losing game. If we borrowed from the earth we must repay, or we should soon find an empty exchequer. The Hee. A. licitthit then rose and spoke to the follow ing effect :—I think this by far the most interesting agricul tural meeting that I have ever attended, en account of the variety of important views and pra ctices which have been brought under our notice. k or my own part, at so late • period of the day I must content my self with adducing a few facts that have * come within my . own fanning experience, and defending one or two points of my farming practice which have been glanced at by the preceding speakers. As I see so many landed proprietors around me I must beg permission to im press on them the duty of allowing their tenants to break up, under proper restrictions, the poorer lands now lying in graze. I think that 1 can show from my own experience that national wealth, the profit* 'of the tenant, and the in terests of the labourer, are deeply concerned in converting poor pasture into tillage. Thus, in my own parish, five years ago, there being many labourers out of employ, I obtained the consent of my landlord, Mr. Sturt, to break up the whole of the grass lands of a small dairy farm. It con sisted of 95 acres, 10 of which only were then under the plough. When 1 entered on the occupation, the farm sup ported 14 dairy cows, and pew 49 bushels of wheat and 40 bushels of beans. Now it annually produces 1,600 bushels of wheat, 40 head of cattle, cows, yearlings, and calves and 100 sheep are fatted, and tiO pigs, and where 31 labourers were em ployed, 12 are now sustained all the year round. But the taro, gentlemen, labours under one embarrassment, such • one as I wish you all felt—such en accumulation of manure that, with the fear of laid wheat crops before my eyes, I know not where to place it. Allow me to detail briefly the steps by which this surely happy result has been brought about. I began at the beginning. I first drained the land ; but of draining you have heard to-day so much, that I will only say that though it has been most successful. I yet heartily wish that I hal earlier known Mr. Parkea's deep drainage. My fields would have been far more and effectually rid of their bottom water. I trie ec d:het ilid a was done to improve the herbage of come of the better pas tures, hut neither liming, nor sheep-folding, nor guano, enabling me to cut more then 15 cwt. of hay per acre, I pared and burnt it all, and cut down, by my kind landlord's leave, all the hedge-row timber, and grubbed up all save the boundary hedge, and have now a glorious farm. The next object was to provide for the permanent fer tility of the soil by keeping • huge amount of stock ; for I hold that a farm ought to be made seltsupporting as fax as possible, and the purchase of manures alusuld be re- ' girded as only a temporary expedient—a necessary evil. My tint effort to consume the green crops grown on half my farm was very expensive, and therefore unsuccessful ; for with regard to the beasts, I was forced to purchase a ruinous amount of straw, and the sheep eating off the Swedes on clay land in winter puddled the fields, and were themselves amidst good food objects moat pitiable. But when our priu cipin are good, we must not allow alight difficulties to stop their application. I therefore determined to place my mileh and store cattle on boards, as wood is an excellent non-con ductor, and after a series of devices I have succeeded in making them tolerably comfortable, so that I am now no longer dependent on my straw for the quantity of cattle which I keep. I am only limited in the number of animals which I keep by the amount of green food grown. In like manner, but with a variation of arrangement, the sheep were placed on small boards about 31 inches wide, with an interval of about 1 inch between each, to permit the manure to fall freely into properly prepared tanks below. Ilia is by tar the most successful provision which I have made. Of 1,000 sheep so placed I have never had one lame. The pigs, in like manlier, when fat tened, sleep on a boarded stage above their feeding-place, and except in very cold weather, require no straw for litter. Thus I have dispensed with a large expenditure of straw, which my cereals (half the farm) could not sufficiently pro vide. But I hear some one exclaim, " What do you make of your straw ?" First of all, a g ood deal is still required for bedding the hones, and the young stock which are in loose boxes ; and as they never tread the green fields, they require a great quantity of white bedding. Secondly, a great deal is wanted for food, being mixed with the green leaves of the root crop and the smashed turnips. Thirdly a ton per acre is used in making clover and vetches into imperfectly dried hay, with a due admixture of salt to ar rest fermentation. 'I hese uses fully take up all the straw which I grow. I think the methods employed in preparing the manure front the "boarded" cattle deserve men tion. First the liquid manure flows into large tanks; below them is another, which I call the nailing tank, for in it the manure is diluted with water to any degree which the state of the weather may require, the rule being that, in proportion to the increase of temperature must be the increase of dilution; i. e. the hotter the weather, the weaker should be the manure applied. In order to avoid the expensive and often injurious water-can, I have laid down over the highest part of my farm a main of green elm pipe,. of 2 inches diameter, bored in the solid wood ; at every 100 yards distance is as upright post, bored in the same manner, with a aortic A forting pump fixed at the mixing tank discharges along these pipes, buried'.' feet in the ground, the fluid with a pressure of 40 feet ; of course it rushes up these pierced calunina, and will discharge itself with great velocity through the nozzle ; to this I attach first of all 40 yards of hose, and therewith water all the grass which it can reach. To the end of this hose another 40 yards of hose is atteelsk and a still larger portion of the surface is irrigated, andel:ion for es many 40 yards as are required. Wh.n enough has been irrigated at the first upright, the) nozzle is plugged, and the fluid is discharged at the next 100 yards distanced column, and so on. For this applica tion of the Lose I am entirely indebted to that most able man, Mr. Edwin Chadwick; the green elm pipe is my own contrivance. The cost of the prepared canvas hose, which was obtained from Mr. Holland, of Manchester, was le. a yard; the wooden pipes cost me only Is , and being underground they will be most enduring. By en outlay of 301. I can thus irrigate 40 acres of land; and me how inex pensive, compared with the use of the water-cart and horse, the application. A lad of 15 works the forcing pump ; the attaching the hose and its management require a man and a boy. With these, then, equivalent to two men, I can easily water two acres a day, at the rate of 40 hogsheads per acre of the best manure in the world ; I say best, because all chemists will assure you that the liquid contains the principal nitro genous and soluble salts, and therefore is far more valuable than the dung, and it is plain enough to every man, though he be no chemist, that plants can only take up the manure in a liquid form. The principal use which I make of the hose is to water the clover, and, above all, the noble, but this day much-decried Italian rye-grass. How hard Mr. Woodward was upon its soft sweet herbage! Yet his own excellent principle, that you must carry back to the land an equivalent for what is taken away, may be success fully alleged in defence of this most productive and nutritious of all grasses. It is certainly true that if you cut and carry away Italian rye-grass, and do notalso carry baile the manure made in eating it, you will not be able to grow wheat after it. But from my . own observation I know that if, after emit cutting, the hose Immediately follows, you may cutit:without wrong to the land as o ft en as you like, and an amount et fodder will be obtained which no other plant can It comes the earliest, and grows the longest reg a l grimes ; and I feel confident that with such appliances im I have mentioned, you may secure fifty tons per annum of this milk-giving, fat-producing, muacle.making, gram. I elm refer to Mr. Dickinson, of Curzon-street, as an authority fir growing at least this weight of green food, and I believe Ost more. That you can cut it, by the help of liquid manure, elm times a-year, admits of no doubt. With regard to the manure made by sheep,u previously described,you will readily perceive its value if you reflect that when you give a flock in their house twenty tons of Swedes and their top, you have minus only the increase of their bone and wool made during the three months of their happy confinement, all the inorganic and most of the organic ingredients of the crop being under tho boards; in fact you may say that on the boards you have a fatted flock, and below the boards yet twenty tons of Swedes and their tops. I think that a good deal of misap prehension prevails respecting this mode of shed-feeding sheep, for you hear frequent comparison made on the sups . rior system of feeding off crops in the fields. I have no doubt that in the summer months even fatting sheep will "do well" out of doors and at the same ' time fertilise and consolidate the l and ; but I speak of feeding off winter crops by sheep which yea wish to fat ; and here I cannot think that the two eystems admit of comparison, ea superior are the results of the house and board system. But the conditions ender which an animal is to be reared are quite different from those which you would observe in laying on fat. In the One cue exercise is absolutely necessary ; in the other case, the quieter and more still the creature is kept the better. Briefly, then, my own practice, which science surely justifies is this—the greater proportion, about two-thirds, of my he'd roots are carted to the sheds, and given to the animals preparing fer the butcher, whereas the tops and 'mailer turnips are fed off by my breeding flock on the land, waisted by oilcan, and corn when necessary, and thus the land is rendered firm, and the ewe* are kept in healthful exercise. Lastly, I must advert to the treatment of the dung made by the cattle and pigs. That on the boards is hourly swept down, and wheeled away to a long covered shed; contiguous to this is another shed containing • large store of burnt earth and other ashes. The dung is worked up with the ashes, and therewith is mixed the other manures, dissolved bones, soot, powdered chalk, ite. This, about 8 or 10 cart-loads per acre, is carted to the field ready for turnip sowing. The manure is drilled in by one of those that deliver moist manure, and thus eight acres can be got over in a day drilled on the fiat. If the field is very poor, the drill goes over four acres in the morning without seed ; in the afternoon the same quantity is again deposited in the tame ruts, and the seed upon this double discharge. The advantage of this is, that the dung ia never exposed to the drying of the sun or air; that the seed being deposited over a moist bed, germinates immediately in the driest ma son, and cures not for the fly, thoh for the prevalent grub it is certainly no remedy. The pig manure I consider the best of all ; because one half of the corn I feed them on is in the shape of beans, which contains the best mineral iagre dient for growing Swedes, as I have endeavoured to set forth in my . " lecture; on manures." These, gentlemen, then, are the principal points of the practice which has brought me In to that pleasing embarrassment of which I spoke bet .re, and which I wish may befall you all—more manure than you tan safely put on your arable land.

MARYLEBONE VESTRY.—LNCREASE OF PAUPERISM. —On Saturday, Mr. J Williams, M.P., having been called to the chair, the vestry-clerk read a communication front the directors and guardians of the poor, stating that th , re were 8,839 paupers rrceiviag parochial relief on the parish ; and that the sum of 1,0001. was required for their week's sup ! port, the treasurer of the board of guardians having only 131. 13s. in hand. The vestry-clerk read another stateroom., from which it appeared that the parochial authorities had issued cheques to the amount of 6,011/., while they had only 8331. in cash.—Mr. Wingfield expressed his astonishment at the embarrassed state of the parish, and wished to laa informed how the demand upon the parochial funds exceeded that of the corresponding period of last year by 4,0001. i—Mr. Lowe replied, that the inmates at present in the workhouse were 600 more than the number in it this time last year, while the out-door poor were daily increasing.—Mr. Stamford com a matted, at great length, upon the prevalence of mendicancy and vagrancy in the metropolis, where, he said, 120,0001. were annually given to 30,000 mendicants, who were either thieves, or the accomplices of thieves, by which means charity was diverted from its proper channel. In conclusion he gave notice of a mo'ion for the appointment of a deputa tion to wait upon the Home Secretary to induce him to give instructions to the commissioners of police and megistrates to enforce the laws for the suppression of mendicity in the metropolis, and to increase them, if necessary.-31r. Daniell brought up the following report relative to the erection of baths and washhouses : At a meeting of the commissioners, heal at the court-honer this day, at eleven o'clock; present, George Daniell, Feq., in the chair, the commissioners of pub li c bath. and muhhouses having had several communientionn from the treasurer and surveyor of the me tropolitan county courts, to the effect that the Oct...wee was em powered to purelsese the piece of ground in the Nest-road 'not warded) for the proposed bulls and wmhbouses, at the ruin of 2,1.1404 solicit sanction and approval of the board of sentry to tho pur chase of the entire piece of freehold lend on the site of the Yortradre Stingo, at the reduced sum of 5,0091, subject to out purchase, on the part of her Majesty'. government, being carried into effect ; uul the commissioners request the approval of the board to their bor cowing the sure of 3,50 -I. from the consolidated fund, puouant to the proviaions of the Bathe and Waehbouses Act. Mr. Daniell observed that he thought the commisa!oners had made an excellent bargain with the government. in get ting them to purchase the land not required, when it was considered that two-thirds would be appropriated to the baths and wash-houses and but one-third for the county court. By this proceeding a double object had been accom plished. They would not only secure the erection of an establishment which would prove of the greatest benefit to the poor, but they would have that for whichtae :nbabitants had been so long contending—namely the est shutent of a county court for Marylebone, in the parish of Marylebone. With regard to the sum required for the site of the bathe and washhouses, by the act the commissioner' could borrow the money at small interest from the consoli dated fund, and pay the amount back by such small instal ments as would carry the entire payment over for 30 years. —ln answer to a question from Mr. 11. C. Wilson, and other members of the vestry, Mr. Daniell stated tkat all the difficulties with regard to the official referees under the New Building Act had been overcome, and that no interference was intended to be made. with regard to widening Stingo. lane.—After some remarks from Mr. Nisbett, Mr. Eoles, and others, the report was received, and ordered to be considered on Saturday next. TILE TOLL-BAR NOISANCE.—On Saturday evening a meeting of inhabitants of the northern districts of the metropolis took place in the assembly-room of the Adam and Eve Tavern, Camden Town, for the purpose of aiding the agitation now in progress for the entire abolition of turn pikes and toll-bars in the metropolis and su'aurban approaches thereto. Mr. W. Collins, surgeon, of the Regent's-park, presided, and having explained the objects of the meeting, Mr. Ramsey proposed the first resolution. He proceeded to show the injurious effects the existence of toll. oars and turnpikes in crowded neighbourhoods had upon property in their immediate vicinity, and upon the rate payers, who were taxed heavily in the shape of paving and lighting rates. In the paria h in which they were then assembled (St. Pancras) there were upwards of 60 miles of road kept in repair by the rate-payers, at a cost of from 16,0001. to 20,0001. per annum, without one farthing being received from casual travellers over them, whilA on the six aod a belt mils-of road let by the commission ers of the metropolis roads to a contractor there were no less than six turnpikes, and as many side and toll bare. (Shame.) The fact was, if the toll-bars wire abo. limbed the rate-payer would be benefited, even though the rates were increased; for to evade the toll, the drivers of heavy vehicles went round the by streets, for the wear and tear of which the inhabitants had to pay. Mr. Ramsey then moved — That as the various toll-bars on the metropolis roads have been proved to be quite unnecessary, and their existence to be a great public grievance, the Inhabitant. present at this meeting pledge themselves to co-operate with other parties now agitating the subject, to their endeavour, by every leghimate mess,,, to accomplish the abolition of this intolerable burthen and monstrous inputice. —Mr. Hill seconded the resolution.—Mr. Spooner. Pro fessor of the Royal Veterinary College, understood that Mews- Pickford, 'and Chaplin and Horne, the rail way carriers, saved more than 1,0001. a year each by dragging their heavy loads down the by streets and roads to the Camden station, and thereby evading the tolls in the Hampstead-road and Park-street, cad the inhabitants had to pay for the damage done to tits reads—Mr. Craft said, only a few days since, in Brill-caw neat, be saw one of these heavily laden railway warp:MN Ia order to pass another vehicle, driven recklessly our the pavement, and the result was that three or four of the flags were broken, for which the inhabitants would have to pay. If toll-bars were abolished these vehicles would go down the public reads, their proper place.—The resolution having been carried nem. con., Mr. Boyce, in moving the appoint ment of a committee to co-operate with other committee", which had been formed to abolish the nuisance, announced that promises had been received from the member' for Middlesex and Marylebone to assist in its abolition. The motion having been seconded, and a committee appointed: with thanks bathe chairman, the meeting separated. THE INTERIOR OF SHAKSPEARE'S HOF sE.—All around is dark and heavy.—The square shop—if it may be called a shop—is rudely flagged with broad stones, round which in the winter time the water oozes up. Thu white washed walls stand about dimly under the 'lnitiate of the window.ecreen which slopes downwards to the street. A massive chimney, with its bold ingle, comes out into the floor ; and an open door at the back, reached by a single stone step, leads at once into the kitchen. This is warmer, smaller, and still more shut up in ancient characteristics. The vast fire-place on one side, and the oak stairs on the other, winding up through the wall into the room where Shakspeare was born, are unmistakeable evidences of the rude and enduring aichitecture of • remote age.—.la , a.

THE REGISTRATIONS. CITY OP LONDON.—At the sitting, on Saturday, Mr. Henry Willis was objected to by Mr. Croucher. An inty• resting point emu out of the objection. It appeared that the name of the party objecting had, in the course of the re vision, been struck off the register, and Mr. Brown appealed to the court whether, under these circumstances, the objec tion could be heard.—Mr. Smith contended that, according to the act, all that was necessary was that, at the time when he objected, Mr. Croucher's name should have been on the list, and that he should have complied with the prescribed formalities.—The Revising Barrister took the same view, but offered to give Mr. Brown a case for the Court of Common Pleas.—Mr. Brown said he would consider the matter.—The case was then heard, and the name was expunged on the merits. Henry Harris Browning was objected to on the ground that his name wan not inserted in the list in full ; the inser tion being " Henry H. Browning."—Mr. Smith contended that the deficiency ought to be supplied.—Aßer some conver sation, the name was expunged. The court will orooeed this day with the wards of Castle Baynard and Corolla MIDDLESEX.—Mr. Shadwell commenced the reci sion of the lists for the county on Saturday, at the King's Head inn, Enfield. Mr. W. James attended as the agent for the liberal party, and Mr. Payne on the part of the comer vatives.—The perishes taken were Edmonton, Enfield, Tot tenham, South Mimme, Monken Hadley, and Priem Barnet. The objections and claims advanced by the two parties respectively are much less numerous than in previous 'emit, and the questions to be raised upon them involve but comparatively slight interest. The revision of Saturday con sisted of little beyond the removal from the lists of the names of deceased persons, or of such as since the but revision bad parted with their qualifications, and the admission of some unopposed claims. In the Tottenham list, a Mr. Hive, who had been objected to last year, and proved kis qua lification, but whose name bad keen omitted by mistake, In the printed copy of the revised list, and whose vote had in consequence been refused at the last election, applied to have the error corrected. The barrister, however, decided that as the name did not appear on the list, and as the applicant had not sent in a claim to have it inserted as a new dam, he had no jurisdiction in the matter. The only course was to sand in a claim next year. —A name on the list (J. Nelson Gouty), against which no objection had been servo] Mr. Payne con tended should be struck out, on the around that the descrip tion' of residence, viz , " Brighton," without naming any street or place, was insufficient. The property qualification was not disputed.—Mr. James anted that it was not com petent for the agent, or any other party, to . go through the list at the revision for the poem* of strik.ing off names to which no objection had been served : qualified voters might be deprived of the konthist without notice, end consequently, without any opportunity of defending their right, while the objector, not laving served the objection, wield be secure against the porky imposed by the act for ohfss erhistrat reamembio ormee. In the prese nt i case, he knew fat the voter waifs egmelmaater roe Wesion street, Brighton , bat he doelinedto hare such 'den to the address made on Ids authority, preferring to rest the defence on the general pridde.—The observed that ^ tra velling abroad " been held by the superior court to be a sufficient description of residence.—Mr. Payne : That would no doubt be sufficient if it was all that the voter could give. —The barrister agreed with Mr. James that, without an objection served, the question could not properly be raise, and retained the name without altering the It was complained both by the agents and the revising bar rister that in several instances the overseers had objected to raters merely because of change of residence, the property qualification remaining the same, and in others that they had neglected their duty in not providing and publishing the lists as required by the net. The expenses of the Enfield overseers were altogether disallowed on these grounds. This day the court will be held at the New Glebe Tavern, Mile-end-road, at 10 A.M.. when the lists for the following parishes will be taken :—Bromley, Poplar, Limehouse, Rat cliff, Shadwell, St. George, Whitechapel, Wapping, Mile end Old-town, Mile - end hew - town, Tower Without, Tower of London, Trinity Minorite, St. Botolpb without Aidgate, St. Peter ad Vincula, Stratford, Bow. Loss or Two LIVES ON TUE RlTER.—Yesterday afternoon, between two and three o'clock, an accident result ing in the loss of two lives, occurred on the Thames a short distanoe below Woolwich halfway reach. A party of five, youths had engaged a boat for a pleasure excursion down the river, and they had proceeded in safety to the above-men tioned spot, when, owing to the rough state of the water , and the boat being somewhat overloaded, their passage became! I exceedingly difficult and dangerous, and the water was re peatedly dashed into the boat, to the alarm and consternation lof its occupenta. Two of the party were rowing, while a third (who perished by the accident) was endeavouring to bale out the water, when, by a sudden swell of the stream, the boat was overt urned, and the whole were immersed in the river. By great exertions, three young men were rescued, but the remaining two, notwithstanding every effort awls in their behalf, were drowned, and the bodies floated away with the tide. One of the unfortunate persons who perished was wholly unknown to his companions, but the other sufferer was stated to be the son of a respectable trades man of the nerve of Tomlinson, residing at Shoreditch.
