There may have been heroes before Agamemnon, but there certainly never were any real, ex 're, cosmopolitan, gastronomic regenerator. in the world until the illustrious Alexis Soyer appeared upon the sublunary scene. The Greeks knew little about cookery—indeed, we have no literary proof that they gave the stomach its proper high position in the animal economy, for)Comer's banquets were perfect cannibalism, and, judging from the collapsed appearance of the gastric region in their finest statues, we should be led to conclude that even Pedalos himself did not reckon a single gridiron amongst the appendages of his luxury. As for the Romans, the banquet-hall of Lumillus would be a chamber of horrors to a modern gourmet, and there is much in modern British cookery to lead shrewdly to the suspicion that his compatnots, when leaving as to the tender mercies of the Picts and Soots, did not think of taking their cookery-books along with them. But every age bas its "Representative Men," and to the nineteenth century belongs the honour of producing Alexis Soyer, to do for our stomachs what his countryman Jullien has done for our ears, that is, to give them pare , digestible, wholesome nutriment, and to teach them how to appreciate it ; in a word, to regenerate them. It is corms to trace the growth of a mere domestic art into a profession of world-wide importance, in the hands of a man of genius. In a leaky day for England the manager : of the Reform Club first introduced M. Boyer into the now famous cuisine of that establishment ; and how much of our social progress since that time, how many of our enlightened legislative measures, how moth of the abatement of party rancour, and of the diMmion of a general philanthropy, may not be uses& tothe mannertn which M. Soyer educated the stoma of third estate, to the refinement he gave to their palates, and the harmonious regularity he im parted to their digestions. It is true, he has sines then soared into higher and wider fields of nicht. nem, but he had sown the good seed, he had framed the gastronomic constitution, so to speak, and it con tinues to work well, though its administration's* now confided to less noted hands. In the year of grace 1855, one of those happy thoughts, a which only Representative Men are capable, sent M. Boyer es hie mission of culinary regeneration to the seat of war in the East He was supping one evening at the Albion, or rather waiting for his supper—the smallest particulars connected with great events are interesting-and beguiling the weary moments with the newspapers. Waiters paned and re pined with tough kidneys for their emnal vistim, and the practical mind of the gutro namie regenerator seized upon the opportunity to give a lecture on the best method of rendering those popular viscera fit for human food; but this was only the premonitory symptom of the coming burst of energy which was at no distant day to fructify in good dinners and easy digestion for an army of a hundred thousand men. A "sudden in spiration" seized upon him, and, as every one doss now-allays under a similar impetus, he grasped • pen, and at once wrote off to the newspapers, offer ing to do for the convalescents in Scutari Hospital 1111$ Miss Nightingale was so efficiently doing for the ak. His offer was at once accepted, and what Mewed is matter of history. He was sent for by the Dubs= of Sutherland, sent for by the War t:Ace, and forthwith accredited by Lord Panmure to the various officials at the seat of war. While this rapid negotiation was going on, H. Sayer was a sort of focus upon which all the rays of aristocratic curiosity were concentrated. He was questioned by the Duke of Argyll, complimented by Lord Blantyre, and had an audience of Mr. Her bert, and in short of other distinguished persona whose names and imitations are all carefully chronicled in the history upon which we now sit in judgment. But the smiles of the great did not tempt him to a moment's delay in the path of duty. He was soon on the road, armed, like other great commanders, with simply a carpet bag, and he stopped only a moment, err route, to hear from the lips of the Emperor of the French the astounding news of the death of the Emperor of Russia. His journey through France is from henceforth as the flight of an eagle; but, true to his title of gastro nomic regenerator, ho makes one swoop at Mar seilles, to taste the far-famed Bouillabaisse, a dish of which the world has no equal. The land lord of " The Reserve," proud of the presence of so illustrious a visitor, cooks the dish himself, giving M. Soyer the receipt, which is now published, and is in itself worth the price of the whole bask. At last he finds himself fairly a fl oat on " The dark blue sea," and although fully alive, as a man of taste ought to be, to the beaut i es of the scenes through which he passes, it is carious to observe how in all this hurry and excitement he never for a mo nient forgets the gastronomic regenerator, or his mission. On board the steamer he pays a daily visit to the restaurateur and his chef, and is soon on good terms with both. Who that knows the bland Alexia could doubt the latter statement? At Galli poli he notices that " the oysters are small and ill formed, but very sweet," and continues his voyage, when he is overtaken by a fog—" a thing, " said the captain, "seldom seen in the Sea of Mar more. But the fog soon cleared away, and enabled him to see the great white walla of the Scutari hospital, the haven of all his philan throphic hopes and aspirations. Landed there, and formally introduced to the authorities, his mind 'sat first appalled by the work he had cut out for himself, but as might be expected from the mall, he rises with the occasion, his brain becomes " clear as a bell " when was it ever muddled?—and, confident of suc cess, he exclaims, " If I succeed with a hundred, in a very short time I can manage a thousand, provided I meet with proper support." Henceforth he is full of his mission, and nothing else. A glance is all that is vouchsafed to the magnificent scenery of the Bos phorus, but a sure instinct arrests the gaze of the regenerator, before a certain row of small domes, whose appearance reminds him of " well-corked bot tles." Ile eagerly saki what they are, and is informed that they are the kitchen chimneys of the Sultan's palace, under whose hospitable smoke dwell two or three hundred men cooks and "the favourite sons of high Turkish families." He is not long in present ing himself to Lord Stratford, and the two great men become intimate at once. The regenerator of Turkey hands the regenerator of the world's cookery over to Signo r Roco Vido , his lordship's head manager an cook, and the first interview with the major demo gives rise to the following profound re flection, destined, perhaps, to throw an entirely new light on the history of the war ; each me the Important aloe entrusted to the guidanes of Spas Rom Vido.

Snyer's t he ory is as feasible as it is original and ingenious? " The di plomatic banquet news took place . .—tbe war did:" LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 11, 1857. why, the syllogism is complete, and the conclusion inevitable. Had the dinner ruse off—but, above aU, had M. Boyer arrived in time to cook it—it is impossible to say what effect well-cooked dishes might have produced on the constitu tional ferocity of the Tartar diplomatists. " Heaven gave me a good gizzard and I conquered the world," exclaimed Charles the Fifth ; " for the sign of sub jection everywhere is a poor stomach." It is quite clear that Alexis the First holds nearly a similar opinion, and hence his theory of first causes, and the energy and perseverance with which, through evil report and through good report, he works oat his savoury mission. But he hurries on, and we mast hurry on along with him. He is soon at work at the hospital, and in the twinkling of an eye, he re arranges the boilers, reforms the soup, and refreshes the poor invalids with good and well cooked dinners. We next find him organizing the daily distribution, reducing what had hitherto been a regular scramble in which the weakest always went to the wall, into a system which pee every one his fair share, and in such a short time, too, as to enable him to eat it while it was hot—no unimportant privilege to poor fellows who were at the time fluttering between life and death. While these operations are going on, the regenerator has daily opportunities of seeing Mir Nightingale, and he finds time amid his multi farious duties to draw the following pleasing por trait of that distinguished lady: She Is either high — in Mature, far in complexion, sad sllnt Is pram; her is heir Mows, and is worn quite plain ;kw pityllogeomy Is meet pleasing; her eyes, of • bluish tint, speak Muses, a= see siways sparkling with intelligence; bar me= is =ea sod well formed, while her tips set in =Loa, end =Me known tie impression of her tweet—oes mews the roles of the sate.

From itself the reader must learn how the regene rator fared in the Crimea ; how he established camp kitchens, which entirely satisfied Lord Raglan, and drew praise from Marshal Pelisaier ; how he hob nobbed with Omar Paths, and gave luxurious ban quets, created by his magic art out of salt jack and soldiers' rations, to the high and mighty of the campaign ; and how testimonials showered down upon him from all sides, like bouquets on a prima donna at the Opera. Farther, it may be read with absorbing interest, how kis curiosity led him frequently into " the imminent deadly breach," and how his star as pertinaciously saved him on these trying occasions ; how he was on one occasion ran away with by his horse, and on another brought to a standstill by his fever, but how, notwithstand ing all these perils, ho manfully stuck to the object for which he had set out, and finally succeeded in effecting a complete culinary reform in the camp kitchens of the allied armies. Ilia book will be read by every one with interest and instruction, but by those who know the writer with peculiar avidity, be cause they will find the impress of the man himeelfupon every line, with his strong practical mind and an ' tiring energy, his philanthropic zeal for the interior economy of rieh and poor, his never-failing bonAoines his tact, and his fertility of expedient. Shall we add, that they may also find amusement in the occa sional presence of that amiable egotism which is the weakness of great minds, and in which M. Boyer may be permitted as much es any men to indulge, because although on some rare occasions venturing I to speak well of himself, he never in one single instance can be charged with speaking ill of his neighbour. RELIEF FOR TER SUFFERERS FROM THE INDIAN MUTINIES. MEETING AT BATH, A public meeting, convened by W. Bush, Enj., the deputy mayor Ohs mayor haring for some time been facoymoitisOmfery Meow from attending to his official duties), wee held It the a.naha, Bath, yesterday afternoon, "for the wpm d ccanderiag what measure' shall be edornid for the vadat the siren by the mutiny in India."

The resolution wee carried nnanimouely. The Rev. W.

London. The rev. gentleman supported the resolubos In is dowse speech, which he concluded by otherving that we bad a duty to do, end it should be done. It was a duty th at be felt to be the special privilege of those at home, to help the sufferers abroad. There were delicately nurtured women and children without clothes to wear or food to sat, and it was fur us, not in charity, but in justice and generosity, to poor out our treasures foe them u lavishly as their hue bends and brothers had poured out their blood for cm (Applause.) Sir A. Evrorr, Berl, M.P , seconded the resolution, end said he wee rejoiced that the city he had the honour to repre sent we. among the first to come forward and stretch (oath the head of warm end esenet sympathy to their suffering fellow-count.men in India. Ile admitted that some Kelt might probab ly be laid at our doors, but he thought it would be agreed upon all hands that we had now, as Englishmen, but one duty—to join heart and hand in giving our rulers ell the support in our power to put down the mutiny, and polish the lying treachery and cruel brutality of those who had thorn themselves inveterate fees of our country. W. T. BLAIR, Esq., supported the resolution, which wee carried by acclamation. Dr. Falconer proposed, and Mr. Oliver seconded, the appointment of an influemtal committee to receive subscrip toes, and a vote of thanks wee given by acclamation to the Deputy-Mayor, upon the motion of Captain Marsh. Mr. Br on, in acknowledging the compliment, said he held In his hands a subscription list, and he was glad to be able to announce else 4401. had speed y been subscribed in the city of Bath; le had no doubt there were many present who waled aho ether their maw, and ho believed everything "Erilwell bra large subscription in Bath.

Yesterday, at noon, a meeting of the citizens of Norwich, convened by the Mayor, was held in the Guildhall, for the purpose of taking into consideration the best insane of affording relief to the suffering Europeans in India. . . Mr. RICHARD C tm, the Mayor, took the chair, and wee supported by the Lord Behar of Norwich, fith William Poster, Beet., 84z R. J. Harvey, Sir Samuel Dignold, Mr. I. H. Gurney, M.P., Proteesor Asedgwiek, the Archdeacoe of Norwich, and a large number of the leading iehabitanta of the city sad seighbourhood. It was the mast numerous and most indoentie meeting which has been held in Norwich for many years. The M sY.,K, in "suing the proceedinge, expreseed his confidence that Norwich would be among the first to render the assiatenie required by oar felloiocountryinen and coun trywomen in India. The Hon. and Right Rev. Dr. PILLIIA it, Bishop of Nor wich, rose to move the first resolution, which affirmed that the meeting, regarding with strong feelings of abhor rence the mutiny amongst the native temps, end the eme tics, they had indicted, esteemed its warmest sympathy with the sufferers in their distress, white treating to God for their deliverance, awoved of the suggestion for raising funds for their iindiate relief. Hie lu , ip remarked that throughout the length and breadth of the land there was net a person who did not feel the deepest interest in the events which were now going on in India, and which had burst so unexpectedly upon this country. What were the causes which had lad to that calamitous outbreak it would be of coterie for the government to consider, and also how far our policy with regard to India might have led to it. It wee a grave subject, and would require the gravest deliberation upon the part of those who were in any way entruated with the go vernment of India. (Hear, hear.) It we not for him, in his position as bishop, to set forth what that policy had been. AU he wished to do was to direct the attention of the meeting to the fearful atrocities which had been committed, to the sufferings which had been inflicted upon large num bers of our fellow-countrymen and countrywomen, and, if pueblo. to render them *soutane*. A great fire had, as it were, broken out, and it was their duty not to attempt to put it out, for that was the duty of the authorities • nor was it their busineso to search out the reasons which hid led to the conflagration—their busineas that day was to asset in pro viding safety, shelter, and provision for those who had been reduced to terrible distress in consequence of the calamity, and who were now almost without the necessaries of life, That he conceived to be the object of the meeting, and he was very thankful to the Lord Mayor of London fur commencing a movement, which was likely to have meet beneficial results. It moat be remembered that it was impossible for the govern ment to dell satisfactorily with the seat number of the causal distress which had been occasioned by the mutiny, and which nevertheless presented the stmogeot claims for assistance upon the sympathy of the Christian public of this country. The right reverend speaker next referred with expresaions of thankfulneauo the dieposition universally evinced, not only by the people of this country, but by the citieetia of Calcutta ass! Bombay, some of them heathens, and by our ally the Em pero r of the French, to come forward and amour oar articled brethren. He (the bishop) believed that the moral influence of these united subscriptions would be very great, and that it would very greatly strengthen the arms of the reflected forces we were sending out in putting down the rebellion, showing es it did the sympathy not only of this country, but of foreignes,with the sulterus and their honor of the conduct of the mutineers. (Cheers.) Ile believed It would also tend very materially to strengthen the govern ment of India in the retied circumstances in which it mu at latent placed.

CARDINAL lIIBJUL4N ON INDIA. In the Dublin Prsoisan's Journal of Wednesday hat we find the following remarks, published as " Estrada trots • Discourse preached in St. John's Cathedral, &Need, ca Sunday morning, by hie Eminence Cantina Wilma, ea Nitwit of the Manchester and Salford Catholic Orphan Asylums " " But, now, teisthres, let us come more closely to the cir cumstances in which we ere placed. We me looking anxi ously forward to to-morrow for we know not what news it may heft us concerning our immense Indian empire. We do not know—we trust, we hope, we pray to God, that we may have received the worst, and that we may not have to mourn over greater lowa, but, on the contrary, to rejoice that a victory, though it will be Wood-stained in our annals, may have put an end to dismal snapeoae. It may, indeed, be thus; but, under tainting circumstances, the aspect of Whin is moat serious. Now, trace what has happened to its stated source. If the acconnts that have been given to us be true, this seems to have been the cause of our propene cala mities : we have been for • hundred years striving to civilise an immense population; to cinlbe it in every way except by Christianising it. On the contrary, the very WM of all our efforts to attach those millions and millions of poor Bladece to as hat been the promise that we will not make them Christians. I will not examine this principle; it Is one which has been adopted, and upon that we have acted. We have told them, again end again, ' No, we dolnot dedte you to be Christians.' If not those exprees words, others as strong have been used. 'We do not wish you to be Chris- bane ; remain heathens as you are, provided you are faithful subjects of our Sovereign, sad provided you serve ea la our meat end of worldly advantage. Be it so. We have made the attempt to civilise according to our system but in one point only have we succeeded m making the m adopt Eu rope se ensthoda, and skill, and that is in the art of war.. We have succeeded in making them soldiers—we have taught them all the secrets of war:fere—we have trained and disciplined them under our best Atoms, and have made • powerful army. At the same time, es I have said. it Ism been under the condition of not making the slightest ap proach towards winning their consciences er their hearts to God. Now, what happens? Just observe how small a canoe may lead to groat results. If the accents which we have read be tres—and, certainly, they have been repeated, if not firnied, down to yesterday—it seems that, eo far did we carry that denim to make then geed and powerful soldiers, that the very last sm. that had been invented have been pet late tisk Yob ; and anisected with this we. the assearity of waking nee of anal unctuous substance in pre paring the charge for en. The contractor—the person who undertakes to tend& the cartridges, finding that there was a slight, a trilling gain upon using an animal substance, Mead of that which was prescribed, commits a commercial hand, for it is nothing else, of gaining a little upon his con tract . by using a substance which be thought could make no ev i cal „ c d o iffzr i zo , and d yet attempt made all pon the !t i tl e d:sr:ince of those pour people. Thus, while with u one hand we have again and agate declared to them that we should not attempt to change their religion, with the other we minister to them that whkh they consider it to be • breech of their religion to Meta. And really upon this dishonesty for a trifle—for this miserable gain—which some one or Mho. has made, we have had 28,000 men thrown Sato rebellion ; we have had °Beers murdered in cold blood by their own sol diers ; we have had men, women, and children butchered in the mast brutal manner ; we have had a large Presidency thrown into a state of rebellion ; we have the inhabitants of our greet cities trembling for their liver and wo know not what to-morrow may bring us of further 'dismay. All this may be the result of one petty commercial attempt at unjust gain. See then how small a commercial crime may produce an immense national disaster, and may poemibly rob us of an empire. Is it not then the interest of every one to establish the standard of commercial honour on such • footing as that no man should dare to violate the sacred law of his *fawned ahip ? In this case you see what it has done. God, as yet, only knows what will be the result. And, yet, does it not redd to you, my brethren, as if the Almighty spoke to the nation in some way, and said, " Give an account of your stewardship in that vent empire P" Does not everybody say so ? Do not the organs of fpnblic opinion cry out, ' The time is coma fee • thorough reform of our system of government in India ?* It is necessary that we should read and study past events, and see if we hen been governing this mitten justly end righteously as became a Cheerier' people. It ham come home to the national ten science that this is the case, and I hare endeavoured to poled out where your duty is, and what course of conduct yea should adopt, to prevent such calamities; for, if every elms wen to do the same there is no doubt we should not have theme abeam in distant colonies which lead es often to rebellion and, at length, even to separation. And now, while I ma "taking of India, oar vast mercantile em pire, allow me to come nester home in the gnostic° of national justice. I dare say Anse of you have seen, yester day, an ktereMieg extract from the life of • late ilinatriess puma, Sir Charles Napier—a life published some time ego, in which ha clearly foretold that one Indian army would rebel; that it would rise up ageism& is officers, those few English ones that remained; and that the East India Company, whom he had warned again and again In vain, would feel the disastrous consequences of such an event. Such wee his prophecy, and he orincluded by raying —' But I do not wish to lad the life of Cassandra, giving nothing but evil auguries to people who will not take notice of them.' Now, as them words of that goat men, as he showed himeelf always in India, have come thoroughly to passe, I will quote some other words of hie spoken to myself, and you will see to what extent they agree with those. A few years ago—the year before his death—l was in the Exhibition in Loader, looking at a picture representing one of his battles, in which he was in the very centre of danger, the moot conspicuous object amid the terrors of the fight. Standing clan to it was the hero of the piece, Sir Charles Napier himself. It we impossible to mistake him; but he desired to be introduced to me. I asked him • few questions shout the picture sod its correctness, and he then took me by the arm and drew me aside—there were several pennon around us—and he said— " Cardinal Wiseman, you Catholics are shamefully treated in India. I have told them again and again—l have told the government there—that a time was coming veryecioei when, to save our empire, we should require to be united combined forces of all British subjects 'about distinction, and that it was their duty to prevent any disunion many religions differ ence.% I have spoken in vain ; they will not listen to rat, and they are keeping up • eystem of disunion and separation in stead of union. I have been again and again ashamed when in India at being thanked by the Catholics as for a favour for what was but a piece of cernmoneet justice." Them nearly are the very words which he epoke to myself, and I ran vouch for the truth of every expression. Hera, again, he foretold the events which have come to pass, and declared to me that the time was approaching when it would be necessary to unite all, without dultlection, in • combined effort, to save the Indian Empire. Yet, what has been done by its rulers? Every regulation by which catholic. can be made to feel that they are • distinct ChM, that they are not to expect the muse treatment ma others, is still continued, or rather strengthened ; It is almost impossible for a catholic soldier to have his children educated in his own religion; and what is mete, if he die, he can hardly reckon on their -- - being brought up in it. so one sided are the rules for the education of orphans. So that a prior catholic hee to fight their bottles, has to fro into peril of hie life with this feeling - either he has sent his chil d against his coseclence to a arlio.7 . wiere he will letatigh - tern or for the aalieni trilling remuneration which be coubl not o th erw i se gain, or ilia. Sat ho has given his child no education, end is ;eine to have him en orphan in the hands of those who will linty ethic tie him contrary to his wishes and con victions. Is this fair? Is this public justice? Is this the stew srdship proper to sgreat national corporation, which has emphatically end publicly declared to its very heatheneubject sthat it knowsnodifference of religion in those who hithially ems it t U Boy isoogstes n spode &arch MANCHESTER AND LIVERPOOL AGRICUL TURAL SOCIETY. The annual meeting of this society was held at Warrington, yesterday. The show of agricultural imple ments, machines, horses, and cattle was one of the beet we remember to have seen. Amongst the leading gentlemen present weirs Sir Charles Tempest, Mr. T. Walmaley, of Wigan ; Mr. Henry Tempest, of Wakefield ; Mr. Torr, al I.Inoots; Mr. J. Ireland Blackburn, Mr. T. Bindles', Mr. J. Ingham, Mr. Henry Hilton, Mr. Peter Stubbs, Mr. Hwy Marsland, Mr. R. C. Lowndea, and the Rev. Hugh Qatekett, Beeetor at Warrington. There wee no less than forty-one stand, of agriculture' linglemenis, end yet, large as the collection was, it we mem select, end of a better character than vessel, and It was salishetoey to observe that these nwebses attracted not only the attention of scientific and gentlemen ferment, but were inspected with much interest by the smaller clam of tenant cultivators. This is probably attributable to the fact that inventors have re cently studied economy in price, &ad brought many of their machines more within the reach of the humbler class of farmers. Amongst the novelties was an improved chaff cutting machine, the principal feature of which is ths self etOting tooth roller, which saves both time and labour. It does the work of a man, grespior with great tenacity the feed, and holds it while it is cut, instead of often slipping it, so the old machines do. The exhibitors of this machine were Mews. Richmond, Chandler, and Norton, of Manchester, who had also • patent doable-action end reverse-motion hay making machine. It is an old machine, with some improve ment,, which render it very efficient. Mr. Thomas Stand ing, of I'reston, had a good show of the wire.netting and fencing now so much in use, the chief recommenda tion, of which ere that they are good and cheap. Mews. White and Payne, Manchester, exhibited Bradford's new " chuck " washing, wringing, and seimgling machine, the principal feature of which is its cemillating motion, which reduces the labour, and renders washing within the power of a mere girl. Mr. 11. Harkes, of Mere, Cheshire, bad two ploughs for heavy land, on the swing principle, which attracted a good deal of attention, being well adapted to the soil of the neighbourhood from its improved rasps of mould board, rendering the draft easier for the horse. Mews. Moore and Clarke, of London, exhi bited the new American Eagle reaping and mowing machine, which took the prize at Salisbury, and it attracted murk at tention, as may be supposed, in • neighbourhood when its utility in mowinggrass lends would be well appreciated. In seeds there was not awls show, there being only three samples of wheat tor competition, but the room exhibited were exceedingly fine. Mews. Francis and Arthur Dixon and Co., of Manchester, had some fine collections of dried natural greases, grass seeds, wheats, oats, and beaky" in the straw, some samples of wheat and oats from the Lothians and chalk districts, for change of seed ; specimens of fins new seed wheat, winter tares, and St. John's Deg , rye, of Paney's perennial rye grass weighing 361 M, per bushel. The dried greases were beautifully exhibited by being placed in bulk, with single specimens on screens, and the seeds in neat glass bottle.; and the society marked their wee of it, value by awarding to Mews. Dickson and Co. its silver medal. The specimens of mengold wurtzel exhibited were of fine growth, and Mews. J. Knight and Co., of the Lancashire Manure Company, exhibited a root of this vegetable, grown by Mr. J. J. Black borne, at Hale, weighing 251bs. Them manures drew • good deal of attention from vi. iron. The One specimen of umagold muted alluded tows raised bymeansof their nitro genimd bone manure, costing 81. 16e, per ton. Some fine specimens of vegetables grown from their manure by Lord Derby and by Mr. Thomas Atherton, of Bpeke (the tenant farmer to whom has been awarded the prise for the best cultivated farm by this society) were also exhibited. A new restore of tbspresent meeting waa theshow of elteese, for which the local committee had awarded special prima, the Mayor of Warrington giving two of the prizes, one of 81. and one of 31. Mr. Ralph Tickle, of Keekerick, carried off the prim of 61 for the bat three chews exhibited by any person in Cheshire or Lancashire, at produce of his own dairy, and not less than 501bs. weight. There were 15 com petitors, Mr. H. B. Briscoe, of Littleton, near Chester, win ning the second prize of 31. For beet cheeses under 50Ibe. weight Mr. P. A. Wood, Oakhonee, Over, took the first prize (51), and Mr. John Bowker, Yew Tree Farm. Aston by Badweeth, won the second prize (21. 10s.), there being 14 competitors. We observed that Mr. Tickles cheese was offered for sale at Is. per lb. For horned cattle there were 55 entries, Mr. James Dirk- Won, of Upholland, neer Wigan, taking the prize of 101. for the best bull of the short-horned breed under four years. and Mr. Thomas Atherton, of Speke, the prize of 81, for tho best short-horn under two years, a fine animal of a valuable breed. being a descendent of " The Grand Duke" and " Cherry Duchene." Mr. Samuel Clough, of Ashton, near Warrington, took the 10/. prim for the beet bull of any breed under 3 years, and Mr. Hugh Higeon, of Pendleton, the twice of W. for ditto under 2 years. For homees there were 74 entries. including some extremely fine animate among the stallions, Mr. Thomas Forebear, of Chorlaiy, taking the 61. prize for the kind best adapted to agricultural purposes, and also the 6/. prize for the beet Mal titoihonen.6forof.rpodri:irtieyek4eporur"mt.he besgiLroam:b...wjsia.inifonorp."'db.rtoenpdb.ror..:dMf aratizeNtrfrokr cah"pr..l e i ri : c t: d e ;t r o t , t u o r m ra h m e: . 5/ N ru i :f T er y.er bes ; i t ur k, m .... . , ...

Altogether, we believe that the meet ing was considered to lie one very encouraging to the efforts of the society. A dinner was to take place in the st which Col.
