e ach nonsense as this, ?which . it would be too great a comp liment to call policy, limiting ourselves to ob serve, that, oonld a statesman entertain the idea of ' ding upon such, he would deserve to be sent at once to Bedlam. Bat although Prussia is not a power of that com manding voice which can impose upon other countries, it may become so. And the king seems to discern clearly the right path to that moral aggrandisement. Prussia places itself at the head not merely of the comm ercial, but the constitutional movement of Ger many, and thereby sums up German feeling, force, and sympathies in herself, then indeed the voice of Germany, spoken through one potent mouth, mast be listened to. Tne chief obstacle to Prassia's seizing this supremacy, has been her own backwardness. Austria is an inert log that is every day hurled more and more out of the circumference of the German father-land. Bavaria, indeed, kept up some ri valry with Prussia, supported ultra-Catholicism in opposition to Prussian Protestantism, and a reign of semi-absolutism in opposition to the general tendon aim of Germany. The King of BAVARIA, however, long sick of Jesuit predominance,gained courage to break with them from the exhortations and pique of the celebrated LOLA MoriTEs. Hers is not the first female influence that has emancipated a court and routed the clergy ; and, however morality may be shocked by - the origin of her influence, liberal principles profit by its exertion. An absolutist and semi-Austrian cabinet in Bavaria, headed by one of the old enslavers of Greece, has been put to the rout, and the court of Munich, freed from Austrian influence, may unite in political sym pathies with Prussia, and give impulse and extension to the new current of German feeling. But whilst hailing any symptom of the resurrection and unity of Germany, we do not conceal from our selves the fact, that the English or their policy are far from popular in that country. For this we may thank ourselves in part, and in part the considerate kindness of Lord ABERDEEN'S friend, Lot B PHILIPPE, who has for 'ears suborned the press of Germany to malign us. And herenaturallysuggesta i:self,the singular fact, that the two most honest and simple populations in Europe, the Germans and the Spaniards, have been blessed with the most corrupt press, and that the press in both countries has been suborned by the poli tical enemies of England to undermine our popu larity and deny our worth. For a variety of reasons, therefore, much as we love and respect Germany and Prussia, the time, we should say, is not yet come for a British minister to wrap himself up and go to sleep in the folds of a Prussian alliance. It may one day be a most valu able One ; but Germany, we repeat, is, as a first-rate rower, unformed and undeveloped. France and are, en the contrary, Minervas armed and full grown. To quarrel with both, as is coolly proposed, is to place England in a position that would require mare statesmanlike science to make good and secure than is at all apparent in the late debates of thr; Hasse of Commons. WE are honoured by numerous ]utters from corres pondents, each recommending a different mode of alleviating the present scarcity of food. The proposal mast frequently made is to have a general massacre timeless animals. One would hang all the dogs, another all useless horses, beginning with race-horses. Even the Jere natura , , though =preserved, excite the animosity of some. Sparrows are denounced as .a voracious nui sance, and the Bendier in ELIA who refused to poison them, would, no doubt, in these days, be scouted as a bad political economist. Our religious reformers make war upon all the idle embellishments of religious edifices. The economists, who give in their adviece through the medium of the penny postage, would make a fell swoop of all that is orna mental in animal life. And when hares have perished with the game-laws, no greyhound tan survive, not even for the sake of his symmetrical beauty. Once for all, we must beg to dissent from our humane correspondents. We deprecate any whole sale slaughter of dogs. We would let even race horses run. And we must eschew any cleee inquiry , into which are the useful, aad which the useless, class of animals, lest the same form of reasoning and dis tinguishing might come to be applied to men. If all' mouths, but of those of beings who are of some profit to the age, ore to be closed by the executioner, what is to become of our unproductive classes ? Are the gentlemen, who keep and bet on race-horses, much more useful than the animals which form the subject matter of their calculation and liveli hood? Is the lap-dog owner always a more industrious member of society than the lapdog? Our correspondent, who would feed the dray-horse, and cut the throat of the winner of the Derby, is, in principle, the French sans culotte of 1792, who placed a carpenter at the head of the state, and sent every lord to the guillotine. We do not say, that it is decorous of an Irish gen tleman to keep a large and well-fed pack of hounds, when the peasantry are starving around him. But a deg, the friend of man, can be fed on the refuse of man's daily food ; and the horse, being herbivorous, can be fed on what does not constitute man's food. Even game, although the preservation of it in thickly populated and agricultural districts, produces an in -rable damage to the farmer, and an irresistible temptation to the peasant, whom it introduces to gaols and to crime—still we would be indulgent even to game, amidst their homesteads on the moors, where there is no need of a rigid game-law to preserve them. The rich who support dogs, who feed pheasants and parrots, have abundance fur charity, as well as for their private wants. And that charity can be better stimulated, than by curtailing their amuse ments, and forcing them to hoard. Where there_aro large fortunes, there must be expenditure in show and vanity and valeta ; nor has a sumptuary law ever been found productive of abundance or morality. The severest sumptuar7 laws against the external display of pride existed in Venice, where great wealth was accumulated, with few objects on which it could, be expended. The result was, the most ruthless and leaden tyranny that ever a poor population laboured under. _ I In the Dublin Erening Post of Saturday is an article descriptive of the wide and deeply felt distress inflicted on every branch of trade by the landed pro prietors being obliged to limit their expenses to strict necessaries, to their turning off their servants, aban- cloning even the semblance of hoepitaliy, themselves and tbeir families entering no shops. AU those' expenses that they have thus discontinued were in one sense useless ones, yet their cessation has occa sioned proportionately as much misery and ruin in the towns, u that with which the failure of the po tato crop has afflicted the country. A deeper insight into our social organisation would reader our correspondents more indulgent to things which they consider useless. What powers bath not nature shown in producing flowers, the utility of whose beauty is beyond our comprehension, yet which aso connected with the principles of reproduction, that we cannot proscribe the flowers without losing the fruit. Nor are the dumb animals, which are admitted to our hearths and grow in our affections, without qualities which plead for them even in the hour of famine. The Paris journals and correspondence of Sunday have arrived, but bring no intelligence of muck interest. The Chamber had decided in favour of the establishment of a line of steamers, between Havre and New York, on Saturday. A curious question was raised in the course of the debate on this project. In the documents, the Minis ter of Finance is designated " his Excellency." To this the opposition took exeeption, declaring that such a title w as a b o li s h e d a ft er the l ast revolution. M. Lacave-Laplague, however, refused to give up the obnoxions prefix, and the debate was accordingly adtoarned to Monday. The journals of Sunday are mach occupied with the debate in the House of Commons on Mr. Hume's motion on Thursday. The price of bread in Paris for the last fortnight of March has risen to 68 centimes per kilogramme , being equivalent to 100. for the 41b. loaf. Lord Normanby has not appeared at the soirees of M. Guizot since the mete;og at Count D'Appony's. The appointment of Herbert to be Minister of J ultic!! Proves M. Guizot's power to be firm as ever. M.bresson, who is at present at Paris, has, it is said, positively declared to the government his inten tion of not returning to Madrid. The entreaties of M. Guizot and of a still more influential personage have proved unavailing in overcoming this resolution of M. Breason, whose eyes are opened to the difficul ties of his future position at the Spanish court. This steP of M. Brillion causes the more embarrassment to' the government at the present moment, as in virtue of formal promises previously . made to him, M. Bresson insists on being appointed ambassador at Rome or at Vienna. It se e msthitls;een Christina feared meeting some hostile demonstrations at Burps, and her journey from Madrid to Vittoria was got over as rapidly u amble. She complains loudly of the obstinacy and ingratitude of her daughter, Queen Isabella, who, since her marriage, has paid little or no deference to her counsels ; thus, contrary to the expressed wishes of her mother, she insisted on the nomination of General Concha as Captain-General of Old Castile. It wu thought at Madrid that the first result conse quent on the departure of Maria Christina would be the return to power of M. Mon and General Nan nez, who have of late shown themselves hostile to the policy, RS also to the person, of Queen Christina. The communications between Bayonne and Madrid are so obstructed that, for the last few days, the mails have been one day late; that of the Bth, which was due in Paris on Saturday, did not arrive till Sunday, and that of the 9th was still due on that day. The queen not having given a definitive answer to the communications made by the ministers, the crisis still continued. As her majesty had not declined the ministerial measures, the cabinet could not resign; but, on the other hand, asst having accepted them, it could not act. The machinery of the state was, in fact, suspended. Tho following observations, from El Espanol of the Bth, give the impression which the situation produced:— The ministerial crisis still continues to be the topic of con versation, without, however, any new facts harms trans pired. The ministers have submitted certain measures for the approval of her Majesty, indicating the system of govern ment they propose following, and winch demonstrate, at the same time, that they enjoy the confidence of the crown. It seems that her Majesty has not yet made known her deci sion on the measures proposed . to her by her responsible counsellors, and this has given rise to the anxiety and doubt which is felt in political circles. The denouement of the present situation cannot be presumed until the decision of the head of the state is made known. The ministers ought not to have tendered or offered their resignations as long es her Mainly had not expressed her dissent from the measures they psoposed; and the doubt which still prevails at Madrid is owing to the feet that the resolution of the throne has not yet transpired. It is of high importance to the throne, to the parliament, and the peers, that the authorities be elected according to the terms of the constitution, and that no change should take place unless imperiously demanded as the interest of the public. The name of General Nerve's, which was pronounced Yesterday in junction with those of his former colleagues, was received with that Aiding of alarm by the public which is the natural result of Ike an nouncement of a situation which is hurtful to the 'institu tional interests of a country whose only4rard is the maintenance of its institutions end the Was opinion, which has now preekeeneed half is veer of a Ina but at the same time, a libmal rid esosilistoey government. The resignation of General Breton having been accepted, General Pavia was appointed to the Captain generalship of Catalonia. A title of Castile was granted to General Breton on his retirement. It was announced that General Manuel de la Concha would certainly be named Captain-general of Old Castile, and would have command of the army of observation on the Portutruese frontier, Queen Christina, preparatory to her departture on the Stb, dined at the palace on the 7th, and made her adieux. In the evening the Queen went to the theatre. Queen Christina is accompanied to Paris, where she was expected on Sunday evening, by her husband, the Duke of Rianzares, her two daughters, the Duke de San Carla., her household, end also by M. Isturitz, who is en routs to London to assume hie post there as ambassador. itTbc eoun. The Queen and PrinceAlhert took their usual early walk yesterday in the pleasure grounds of Osborne. Their Royal Highneues the Prince of Wales and the Princess Royal went to the see•beach yesterday morning, and their Royal Highnesses Prince Alfred and the Princess Alice took an airing in the pleasure grounds. Their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Kent and the Duchess of Cambridge honoured the performance of the French Plays with their presence yesterday evening. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent visited her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge yesterday at Cambridge House. A deputation from the General Shipowners Society had an interview with the Earl of Clarendon yester day at the office of the Board of Trade.—A deputation from the Steam Shipowners Association had en interview with the Earl of Clarendon yesterday at the Board of Trade. DEATH OF COL. GORE LANGTON, M.P.—Colonel Langton, wbo sat fur East Somersetshire, died on Sunday last, at bis house in Grosvenor-sguare. The deceased was in hi, 86th year. Col. Langton, though • large landed pro prietor, was an advocate for free tra&, and his votes were also given for Roman Catholic relief, and in favour of the Reform Bill. To use his own expression, " He saw the corn laws become law, and he would not die happy until he saw them repealed." Though suffering from extreme bodily de bility during the greater part of last session, he went down to the home, or rather was carried there, to vote fur the second reading of Sir Robert Peel's free trade measures. STATUE TO THE QUEEN DOWAGER.— A deputa tion from the wards of Bridge end Candlewick, headed by Deputy Evans, waited upon the Lord Meyer last week, for the purpose of suggesting to his lordship the propriety of raising by public subscription a fund for erecting a statue in same part of the City of London in detour of her Majesty the Queen Dowager, and to solicit his lordship's support in tarrying that object into execution. His lcrdabip stated that the proposition should not only receive his most cordial support, but that he would use every means in his power to promote it. We are given to understand that a committee has been formed with the view of carrying out the object in the most creditable meaner, and that public notice will be given in due time of the proceedings. ENFORCEMENT OF LAWS FOR THE. PROTECTION oF WOmEN.—A public meeting convened by the Associate Institution for Improving and Enforcing the Laws for the Protection of Women, was held yesterday at the London Tavern, for the purpose of assisting the progress of a bill with that object, which Mr. Spooner is about to introduce into the House of Commons. The chair was taken by Sir Edward Buxton, Bart., in the absence of Lord Robert Grosvmor, who was unable to attend. A series of resolu tions were then adopted, deploring generally the large amount of traffic in prostitution at present existing in the metropolis ; condemning in strong terms its encouragers and those engaged in it; and agreeing to a petition to the legis lature in favour of Mr. Spooner's bill. The resolutions were supported by the Rev. Mr. Hughes, the Rev. Mr. Cox, the Earl of Mounteeshel, the Rev. Mr. Munro, R. Spooner, Esq., M.P., Wm. Evans, Esq., M.P., and other gentlemen, who delivered appropriate addresses. Thanks were then voted to the chairman and Mr. Spooner, and the proceedings terminated. Tat GOVERNMENT SCHEME OF EDUCAPION.—Lent evening a public meeting was held at the Tabernacle, Shorediteh, to take into consideration the scheme of educa tion recently propounded by her Majesty's ministers. The chairman, in opening the proceedings, remarked that the protestant dissenters had always been the first to give secular education to the people ; indeed, they had often stood alone in that great work. It was bemuse they had loved educa tion and valued it, that they thus endeavoured to teach the people, and it was because they loved education that they now assembled, when they believed their civil and religious freedom was threatened. The government told them that the people throughout the country were grossly ignorant, and that it was absolutely necessary that something should be done for them. On this the dissenters joined issue with her Majesty's ministers ; they denied that the people were as ignorant as they were represented to be, and they further maintained that if they were so government was not the party to undertake their education. Mr. Josiah Conder alluded to the success which had attended the exertions of the Dissenters when Sir J. Graham intro duced his education scheme, and expensed a hope that the same decided course would be adopted with respect to the present measure. He fully believed that the present mea sure would destroy more means of education than It would create. Education was the business of the people at large. It was not the barium of the government. Dr. Davie, the Rev. Dr. Campbell. le Rev. H. Richards, the Rev. It. Per sons, and other gemlieena i severa ll y addressed the meeting, and resolutions isry of the government education scheme, and pledging the meeting to oppose it were carried. A vote of thanks to the chairman closed the proceedings of the evening. HOTEL AND TAVERN-KEEPERS' PROVIDENT INSTI TUTION.—The eighth annual meeting of the members of the above institution was held yesterday at the Craven Hotel, & mi d. Mr. Clan, late Mayor of Windsor having ta ken the chair, the secretary read the report, which'stated that the large Munn in the subscriptions and donations, during the put year, had now completed the sum required by the rules of the institution, before giving temporary relief to its mem bers. The balance at the last audit was 6e. 7d. ; the sub scriptions and donations amounted to 1,050!. Bs. 6d.; the dividend to 1551. 15s. 6d., making a total of 1,2061. 84i. 6d. The sum of 8551. 15 s. had been invested during the past year, which, added to the original funded capital, amounted to 4,1761.161. 10d. After ai amounted to 1001..05. 2d., there remained th em of 2381. 3e. 25. to he funded ; which sum completed the 5,0001. required before they could commence giving temporary relief. The institu tion now consisted of 248 members, and 785 honorary members and donors. The subscription lists at the last dinner amounted to 1761. ; end, in consequence of the unu sually small amount of this sum, it was suggested that 6001. should be raised by subscriptions of 501. each: end the thanks of the meeting were given to the gentlemen who had kindly taken up the subscription lists. The Lord Mayer's collection amounted to 1791. Bs. The amounts collected at the two hart diurnal were respectively 5301. end 1701., making together 7001. Tbo proceeds of a private ball amounted to 531., which sum had been handed M. The thanks of the meeting were unanimously voted to the auditore, sectetary, and chairman, for their unremitting attention to the well-being of the institution, end the meet ing separated.

The journals received to-day from Limerick, from Galway and Westmeath, and from some northern counties also, contain accounts of deaths by starva tion; and, as a proof not only of the increased mortality, but of the existence of the practice of burying the dead uncoffined, I may mention that Sir Randolph Routh has issued instructions to relief com mittees to appropriate a portion of their funds to the purchase of coffins. Of course, the permission, though general, is expected to be limited by the ne cessity of each ease. As might be expected, the country journals con tain records of plunder, and one or two of outrage. The Limerick Chronicle tate. that some are found so cruel as well as criminal as to steal seed potatoes and cabbage plants from the soil in which they have been planted. In the south, and to some extent also in the west, the seeding of the land proceeds. The government is entirely bestirring itself in aid of private exertion, and the secretary to the Board of Works, in a letter issued yesterday, has promulgated an order from the commissioners, for which the speech of Lord John Russell on Friday night will have prepared you. The instruction in this letter is, that as far as circum stances will possibly admit, all those who have land shall after the 20th instant (Saturday next), be dis missed from the public works to occupy themselves in the culture of the soil. _ _ From every county in Ireland there is • perfect stream of emigrants to the shipping ports, for Ame rica. A journal published in Mallingar—on the great highway from the trans-Shannonite counties, Leitrim and Roscommon, and also from Longford and portions of Cavan, as well as Westmeath—states, that the progrees of emigration is perpetual; and adds, what is lamentable for this country, though it must prove advantageous to the colonists, as well as to the colonies—" It is the hard-working and industrious class—the class we should be glad to see stay at home—who emigrate." It is said that everything public in Ireland degene rates into a job. Certain it is our Irish gentry are not slow on every possible occasion to give grounds for the accusation. It is stated that amongst the appli cants for places ander the New Relief Act, during the past week, were a baronet, heir to 6,0001. a-year; two lawyers and three physicians, each in considerable prudes. The calendar for the county of Galway for the pre seat awbees is heavy, both in quantity and quality. Among the offences there are 12 for murder ; 6 for ; 17 for highway robbery whiteboy offinaes illau t il e t r sheep stealing 71 ; and petty larcenies 70. THE SIXTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY FOR THE PROMOTION AND IM PROVEMENT OF THE GROWTH OF FLAX IN IRELAND._ - Amongst the eerie= mast of Irish agriculture ' are from their practical Tlai following remarks • of the duties on the will in future plane taking away the premium eul#Tation. The farmer serieq of crop, such dace,. and such Si will tato account the wants &said. Thus, flax 'a tendon, as being a plant our populatioa are prima shows can with that of any other country. The large amount of labour requirod in its growth and preparatioe, will operate in Ireland to give it claims above all others. Again, the mye tenons sad painful calamity with which this land has been visited, in the total destruction of the potato crop, on which two-thirds of our population have hitherto depended for food, with the probability that it will be imponible for some years, if ever, to grow the quantity of this root hitherto annually produced, will lead to most important changes in nor social economy." A remonstrance on a singular :system of waste is especially deserving of attention at the present moment:—' Your committee have yearly in their reports to on, and constantly through the prirtiesl instrut•ions of their agriculturists, urged moat strongly the imporance and value of flaxseed as lead for all kinds of live stock, and the utter folly and culpa bility of permitting this to go to waste in the steep-pools. The produce of the Irish flax crop in seed may he taken as averaging 10J,000 to 120,000 quarters annually, value above querter of a million sterling. While thin, or a large pro portion of it, has been allowed to go to utter loss, the imports of flaxseed and oil-cakes front the Continent into the United Kingdom have averaged 600,000 quarters of the former, and 80,000 tons of the latter annually, value at least two millions sterling. Your committee are, however, happy to report that, throogh their strong recommendations and the instrue tions of the agriculturists, more and more of the see 1 is each year armed, although as yet fully two-thirds are wasted. The success of those gentlemen in the east of England who have introduced, under the able direction of Mr. Warne', an excellent system of house-feeling on flaxseed, is deserving of serious atu ntion on the part of Irish farmers; and its adoption is highly recommended." The flax crop seems to have cheated the hopes of the Irish farmer as well as the potatoes, which, perhaps, so- counts for a considerable prevalence of datives in Ulster. "Partly owing to the unusual quantity of rain which fell during the winter and spring, preventing the farriers from bringing the heavier clay toils, which constitute a largo proportion in the best flan-growing districts of Ulster, Mtn that fine filth which the plant requires; and partly from the fears entertained on the seo-a of obtaining genuine seed, which were prevalent after the frauds practised hist year, the breadth of flax soon was considerably under an average. The long-continued drought of summer bad a most prejudicial effect on the growing crops, from which they did not nubsequentic recover ; arid the produce has, in consequence, been much less than usual, while the quality also has been considerably deteriorated. The crops on the continent have also suffered from the same cause, some even to a greater degree." The society gives good hints about economising manure,— "It has always been urged against flax culture, that it exhausted the ma; but this is not necessarily e core. If the feed be saved, and the cattle fed upon the bolls, a valuable addition will be made to the manure heap, as per haps the richest manure is produced by this kind of food. The putrescent water from the flu-pools should be carefully prnerred, and either used as a top-drersing for grass or mixed with the weeds and other refuse of the crop, in a heap to ferment. By these means, almost all the matter ab stracted from the soil, by the flax crop, would he returned in the shape of manure—the fibre being supplied by the atmosphere alone." We lately pablished the circular of the society addressed to the landlords of Ireland on the subject of seed. Besides guarding to the utmost against adulterations that have ha come frequent, srrangemente have been made with importers to furnish seed on credit. Tim payment is not to be required until Ist December. After such public spirited zonduct the part of this society the landlords must do their part M making use of the opportunity, when wanted, and the public will not fail to intrust means to hands that employ it so beneficially.

Weueen, &eretary. SCOTLAND. EDINBURGH, Mancrt 13. Mr. J. B. Smith addressed the Stirling electors on Thursday, and was warmly received. The topics principally touched .on were certain alleged unhand some charges made, or connived at, b 7 Mr. Allison in regard to Mr. Smith's religious opinions, and a defence was also tendered of Mr. Smith's connexion, as a director of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway, with the discontinuance of Sunday trains on that line. The meeting was also addressed by Mr. Bright, who spoke long and earnestly in behalf of Mr. Smith, and who was also well received. When three candi dates start on liberal principles for the representation of a district of burghs, partly agricultural and partly manufacturing, it is no easy matter to predict results. Mr. Smith has the prestige of the Anti Corn-Law Association in his favour, Mr. Speirs will likely have the government influence, and Mr. Allison has local connexion, so that even supposing the equality of all other things, the relative force of the salient points of strength cannot as yet be nicely estimated. A food riot took place in Ayr, on Thursday, but the furor passed off with the burning of an effigy, and the demolition of some shop windows. THE STATE OP CA.ITUNTAB.—A shrewd correspondent writes from this county, of date the 9th inst. : Nothing re quiring notice has occurred since my last, ezeept the eppre hendieg of some of the Castletowa rioters. We are now all quiet, and thn presence of the soldiers, at 111.4 regarded ns something very shocking, if not positively dangerous, is uow looked upon as necessary and proper. Yet to my mind, it is a very clumsy mode of maintaining the peace and protecting the property of the district. Our worthy sheriff says we mast increase the strength of the county constabu lary, consisting at present of three, who, with one in Wick, and another in Thurso, constitute an effect ive civil force of Sys men. I have little faith either in the military or the police scheme the schoolmaster is the thing to defy the devil, provide food, and put down discontent and riots. Yet when oho hints at such a thing, one is laughed at, and:told dist the educated dames have connived at and encouraged the recent tastiest deluge. So they have. I ascribe not a little of the discon tent and turbulence of the labouring population to the false hoods of the protectionists when hawking ab nit their peti tions for signatures. As they sowed, so are they reaping. A well-educated set of people, by which I mean men not merely taught to read and cypher, but trained to apply a few simple and eternal principles of truth, would never fall a prey to such deceptions. The quality of the article, teacher, is as bad as its scarcity is great . Surely there can be no objection to the government establishing normal or training schools to prepare—what cannot be got at present (and never will under the voluntary system) for love or money—properly qualitteal teachers. Since 1843, the number of churches and clergymen in Caithness has been at lead doubled ; every one is now (in name at least) a Calvinist if not a Chrkian ; yet until the reil.rontr came in, for some weeks, no one from the country dared to offer a basket of eggs for sale in either of the towns at more than 3d. a dozen. By the way, with all the outcry at the rise in the price of food, there is not a mur mar at the increasing scarcity of money wherewith food is bought, and tke means of producing it provided. The Com mercial Bank has just sent round a circular to the (Mist that 61 per cent. will be charged on all advances. This is an illus tration of the folly of attempting to give additional value or security to the paper issues isf the Scotch Banks by the obligation to hold so much gold." MlAlBl3lo.—Sir Evan Mackenzie bee upwards of 180 people employed on his estate at if deny, under the Drainage Act. Sir Evan commenced last week a personal inspection of all the tenants and crofters on the estate, so as to know by actual observation their real state and circumstances, and the number of individuals in each family.
