The result of these feel ings throughout the North has been to give a greet impetus to voluntary enlistment. Bounties have gradually increased horn 150 dollars to double, and in some localities to treble that amount, and those among the rich who have not acquired fortunes by war contracts, and who fear that an impartial con scription may force them from their homes to share the unwelcome perils of the fled, have exhibited a liberality that may be called either patriotic or selfish at the option of the critic, and offered inducements of huge pecuniary amount, with the hope of render ing a conscription unnecessary. Meetings are daily held in every great town in the North with this view, and the result already appears to be that the first draught of 300,000 men will be obtained at a cost of something like £5O a head, partly at the expense of the Federal and State Government and partly at that of cities, corporations, and individuals; and that in some districts where labour is not in great request, and where rich men, or perhaps men who are both timid and rich, are numerous, the quota of the second, or compulsory 300,000, will also be filled by volunteers. The first draught will thus cost £15,000,000 sterling, irrespe c ti ve o f p a y the immense preventing the infliction and scandal of a draught, will cert a i n ly e a x n e d rt a i p o p n o s i cost a much larger sum. Fifty pounds down, goo d o n f tm th en e ts rloh and ar t e he su s c e c C e o s n sf d u , l ie in pay while the war lasts, a merry life if a short one,—these are the inducements, flavoured with a spice of glory, and with much " buncombe" about the " stars and stripes," and the future destinies of our great and invincible Republic, pre-ordained to rule the world and to reduce England to her natural position of a third rate Power, which are held oat to the youth and middle-age of America. The prin cipal recruiting officers for these new levies, in addition to the almighty dollar, which is the main agent, are Archbishop Hughes and Generals Sickles, Meagher, and Corcoran. All of these, by a remark able coincidence, are as violently anti-British as they are violently pro-Federal. Archbishop Hughes shares the theological as well as political hatred of the Irish Roman Catholics towards Great Britain, and blows the war blaet with no uncertain note in that direction. General Sickles is the 'person who a few years ago, when attached to the United States' Legation in London, refused to drink the health of the Queen at Mr. Peabody's table. From this little incident his animus against Great Britain may be inferred. General Corcoran is the person who, when the Prince of Wales was in this country, re fused to turn out with his company of militia to do his royal highness the honour that everybody else was anxious to bestow. From this episode in his caree his animus may also be inferred with equal certainty. General Meagher is " Meagher of the Sword," who shared in the dangers of Mr. Smith O'Brien's revolution, and is a gentleman who hates England in proportion to the mercy extended to him on that occasion. With the dollars of contrac tors and others to aid them on the one side, and the fear of the conscription on the other, these four in fluential persons have wrought to good purpose within the last 10 days; and members of the Go vernment at Washington have been known in the unguarded moments of social and convivial inter course to congratulate themselves and the country on the good luck that not only sent Archbishop Hughes from London and Colonel —now General— Corcoran from long captivity at Richmond, to aid them so opportunely, but that permitted Generala Sickles and Meagher to be simultaneously available for stirring up the Irish. Altogether the prospects for another million of men to be cast into the de vouring maw of the War Demon are brighter than they were a fortnight ago, and the inevitable end, so far as American agencies are concerned, is ad ourned sine die.

Vancouver Island and British Columbia : where they are ; what they are ; and what they may become, By Alexander Rattray, M.D., Edith, R.N. Smith Elder, and Co. Among the most useful of the works that have recently appeared on these colonies, we must class the one before us, which, unpretending as regards bulk, has been compiled with the view of dissi pating whatever erroneous ideas may exist with regard to these colonies, as well as of pointing out in what their respective advantages consist, and of indicating for what fields of enterprise they offer an advantageous opening. Of the two colonies that of Vancouver Island is the one in which the author is most at home; he has evidently spared no pains to convey accurate information respecting its climate and capabilities, and he is extremely sanguine as to its future. Still, he admits that our present know ledge of the island is very imperfect. A large part of it remains to be explored; and it is the same with British Columbia. "Fur•trading settlements have long existed in its interior, which has therefore been partially explored ; and the gold diggings of more recent date have opened up the country in the neighbourhood of the Fraser River; but the north east, north, and western districts, including nine tenths of its surface, are still unsettled, and much of it unvisited." Up to 1859 these colonies were in the hands of the Hudson's Bay Company, who dis couraged emigration, but in that year their charter of exclusive trade expired, and active colonisation commenced. The area of British Columbia is about 200,000 square miles, nearly twice that of Great Britain, and its population is from 5,000 to 6,000, of which the miners form about one-third. Whilst the area of Vancouver Island is about 14;000 square miles, and the white population of the island is about 4,000 or 5,000. "A narrow but navigable channel separates this island from the adjacent colony, too narrow and intricate at its north end to be of much use, but broad and deep along the south coast and the lower half of the east coast of the island, so as to permit of easy and safe access by the Strait of Fu3a to Victoria, the commercial harbour of the colony—to Esquimalt, its naval har bour—and by the Gulf of Georgia to Nanaimo and its coal mines—and to the Fraser River, the largest and most important stream in British Columbia, and the principal outlet for the commerce, and the agricultural, mineral, and other products of the country." The climate of Vancouver Island, of which the author gives an elaborate account, ap pears to be, on the whole, favourable. Thus from the Ist of April, 1860, to the Ist of April, 1861, 187 days were fine, the remainder being dull, showery, rainy, &c. Rain fell on 118 days, and snow fell on 12 days only, and then neither heavily nor for any length of time. The highest summer temperature was 72 deg. ; June, July, and August being the warmest months of the year ; and the lowest was 231 deg., the coldest months being December, January, and February. Southerly winds prevail, as a rule, and occur in the proportion of 67 per cent. The climate of Vancouver Island is much superior to that of Canada, and " is milder and steadier than that of England ; the summer longer, drier, and finer, and the winter shorter and less rigorous. The mean annual temperate of the former is higher by 1.38 deg. than that of the latter. During the sum mer months the hot weather of Vancouver Island is not so oppressive, and the maximum tempera. ture is less by 14 deg. than that of London; while in the winter the tempers ture never falls so low at Vancouver Island as in London ; and the annual range of the two places differs by 151 deg. in favour of Esquimait." From a table to show the relative prevalence of rain at Esquimalt and London we find that rain falls in London once every two days, and at Vancouver Island only once in three days ; and the climate is said to be remarkably healthy. Vancouver Island, the author admits, is not likely to acquire the agricultural prominence of California and British Columbia, as neither its geological structure nor general topographical features fit it for an agricultural or pastoral colony. " By far the greater part of the island is hilly and moun tainous, and, in fact, forms the prolongation of the Olympian range, which, branching off from the Rocky Mountains to the south of California, runs up along the coast, traversing its entire length so as to form its back bone. A compara tively level peninsula, containing about 150 to 200 square miles, exists at the southern extremity of the island, in the neighbourhood of Victoria, formed by the Saanich and Sooke inlets, on which several fine farms and sheep stations are actively and profitably worked ; but this cannot be taken as a criterion of what prevails over the island generally. The probability is that such another tract, equal in size and fer tility to the Victoria peninsula just alluded to, is not to be found over the entire island. The prospect from Victoria, which may be taken as a fair example of the general fea tures of the island throughout, though fine, is by no means inviting in a utilitarian point of view. It presents only a series of lofty, undulating, pine-clad hills, which rise irre gularly one behind another, and have small intervening valleys where patches of arable land exist ; but the hills themselves aro generally so scantily covered with soil as barely to afford root to the scattered and stunted trees on their sides and summits." Such land, however, as is fitted for cultivation is of good quality ; all kinds of English grain and vege tables grow readily, and it is anticipated that by ding, habrei r ge a hgimnrueweaahtlg greatly es o ig, m muap e i rr o eco f dov t m: h adf e no. lower parts of the islands will dr t willa b lFarme find labourers,home, m ready a dayndmi employment, s y s eems, ulti mately become independent farmers.

(From the Times' Correspondent.) NEW YORK, AUG. 21. London Society. Among the most amusing articles in this number is that called " A Half Holiday with the Actors," in which the late fete at the Crystal Palace in aid of the Dramatic College is described. The second part of " Cricketana" is interesting. The proceed ings at the late Wimbledon rifle meeting furnish matter for an article. There is" A Letter from the LordDundreary," showing how he intended to pro pose, but was unluckily prevented. In " Beautiful Lady Pearson," mercenary young ladies may find a moral. "Philip Morton" is continued, and there is, as usual, a liberal supply of illustrations. Whatever may be the case at public meetings and recruiting offices, Wall-street does not ardently believe in the present good fortune or the future prospects of the Republic. Yesterday and to-day the air has been thick with rumours of disaster to the army of General Pope. Stocks have gone down, and gold has gone up, under the influence of evil reports ; and, as Mr. Secretary Stanton and the Military Supervisor of the Telegraph have not per mitted the transmission of any news that might tend to allay public anxiety, rumour has had the town to herself and made the most of the opportunity. One or two things, how- I ever, have been made certain by the concurrent testimony of letters from independent and uncon nected authorities received from the seat of war during the last few days. The first series of facts to be received as authentic is that General M'Clellan has safely withdrawn his whole force—sick and wounded, bag and baggage, stores and ammunition —from Harrison's Landing to Williamsburg and Yorktown ; that he was neither harassed nor pur sued in the difficult operation ; and that he has already commenced the evacuation of the Peninsula and the transport of his forces to Fredericksburg to co-operate with the army of Virginia under General Pope for the defence of Washington. The second series is that the Confederates were thoroughly apprised of his plans—that if they did not attack him it was not because they could not, but because they would not; that their object was to allow him to get away southward from Richmond, while they, by a sudden movement northward, bore down upon Gen. Pope, with the hope of crushing him before he could be reinforced either by Burnside or M'Clellan. It is the fear that this operation, conducted by the redoubtable " Stonewall" Jackson, has been success ful, which has filled New York with uneasy fore bodings. The friends of the South—who are very numerous in New York, in spite of the Provost- Marshal and Fort Lafayette, and who may be de tected without the utterance of a treasonable syllable or wish, and simply by the unctuous gusto with which they detail the news that seems to be un favourable to the Federal cause—believe that if Jackson defeat Pope he will make an easy prey of Burnside the next day, and of M'Clellan the day after—on the principle of " one down, the other come on ;" that this done, Washington will be at his mercy, and that Mr. Lincoln and his Cabinet will have nothing better to do than to take refuge in New York while there is yet time for them to escape —or, to use the favourite American slang of the day, to " skedaddle." The friends of the North, though not without misgivings, believe that Halleck, who directs the new movements, and ordered the retreat of M'Clellan, may be safely trusted to defeat the bold strategy of Jackson ; and that if the worst come to the worst, there will be a drawn battle for the defence of the national capital. They argue that the result of such a battle must be much more favourable to the North than the South, because it will allow time for the new levies to be brought into the field, after which the combined armies of Virginia and the Potomac, increased to 500,000 men, may march upon Richmond through the old road of Manassas, and take it at their leisure. But far more calculated to excite alarm than even the news from Virginia is that which comes from Kentucky and Tennessee. Mr. Lincoln needs all the men he will raise under the new draught for the retention of the Border States, and he must levy, not alone 600,000 mercenaries by ex travagant bribes of bounty money, but a million of stanch patriots, if he would bring the very " big Kingston's Magazine for Boys.

FLOWER SHOW AT THE CRYSTAL PALACE. . Notwithstanding the threatening state of the thermometer in the early part of the day, the weather remained particularly favourable to the autumnal exhibition of flowers and fruit, which took place yesterday at the Crystal Palace, Sydenham. The directors claim the advantage of this establish ment being especially adapted to floricultural exhi bitions, from the fact that the most elegantly attired ladies can gain access to the building without the slightest danger to their costume. This advantage, however, was scarcely appreciable on this occasion, for the sun shone so genially upon the beautiful grounds that it was almost to be regretted that the greensward had not been chosen for the exhibition rather than the floor of the transept. But in what ever light the building or the flower show may be regarded, it can hardly be doubted that, amongst the many agreeable purposes to which the Crystal Palace may be devoted, there is none which more fully displays its beauties and advantages than an exhibition of flowers and fruit. All the arrange ments yesterday were carried out with that good taste and judgment which generally characterise the special attractions of this institution ; and the result was that a very large assemblage of visitors were enabled to enjoy one of the most agreeable promenades which have been presented by the directors during the present season. As regards the "show" itself, it would seem invidious to make experience certainly justifies comparisons t h e hat,n ; but testing the relative merits of the flowers and fruit, the latter might remark that, fairly claim the ascendancy. The judges appeared to be unanimous in their opinion that the present was one of the most satisfactory displays of the kind which has been seen in this building since it first opened its resources to Bach attractive objects. The collection of fruit was conspicuous both for variety and quality, and whether the standard of merit was taken to be " flavour" or " weight," it appeared that the most stringent requirements en joined by the rules were amply fulfilled. There were two pines—one weighing 71bs., the other 6illas. —exhibited by Mr. Solomons, of Covent•garden— which were sufficiently tantalising to call forth ex pressions of the most wishful admiration ; and there were some tempting peaches, sent by Mr. Monro, of Barnet, which, though not stupendous in size, were of a complexion so delicately marked, that those who regarded them allowed the appeal to the eye to overcome any desire to gratify the sense of taste. The grapes and plums also presented many exaggerated specimens of those fruits, the dimen sions of the former being, in some instances, so tremendous, that one might almost imagine they sought to vie, in point of magnitude, with the larger proportions of the latter. Amongst the exhibitors many names might be honourably mentioned, but it would be invidious to individualise where so much excellence—or at least meritorious endeavour to attain excellence—was perceptible in every direc tion. Of the flowers, the most conspicuous were the large collection of the gladiolus, in which class the prize was won by Mr. Youett, of Great Yar mouth, whose share in the exhibition of this flower was such as almost to convey the impression that that distinguished floriculturist had devoted all his energies to the exclusive culture of this particular plant. There was also a good assortment of the same flower from Paris, but as these had evidently suffered from the effects of a sea-voyage, and as they were made to show their delicate heads from the necks of beer-bottles, it cannot be said that they were in a "fair way" to compete for the honours of the day with the more healthy-looking products of our own land. The asters, German and French (quite as distinct from each other in form as the German and French language are in sound), were conspicuous for thetr manifold beauties and colour and texture, while the dahlias : hollyhocks, and ver benas (to say little of the roses, which may now be said to have "seen their best days"), presented such a combination of beauties that it was impossible for the most casual observer to wander from one stand to another without regretting the necessity which mo satisfactory, a d existed for constantly changing the direction of the eye. Considerin g th a t this was an aut u m n al show, an d th at t h e weat h er h as not b een qu i te so genial st throughou t nthtehosseeaswohno a a s re h n o o r w li ticu n l g tu e r r i i s n t g s could desire, thi s ex hibi t i on was, i n every respect, in the :metropolis whilst their more favoured brethren are basking at the sea side will be glad to learn that the collection will continue on view for the whole of this day. The following is a list of the first prizes awarded in each class CARDINAL ANTONELLI ON ECCLES'- . ASTICAL SPOLIATION. Cardinal Antonelli has addressed the following circular to the diplomatic body : " Rome Aug. 6. " The genius of rapacity which animates revolutionary governments has at all times manifested itself, more or less, by the war it declares against the Church, with a ' view to rob it of its temporal possessions. To drive monks from their cloisters in order to appropriate those buildings; to confiscate eceesiastical property, under the pretence of its belonging to the state, to be arbitrarily disposed of— such is the system pursued by governments framed on the subversive principles of the revolution. With the misdeeds of the governments which have preceded it, the conduct of that government which, by an unjustifiable invasion and a flagrant outrage against the immutable laws of justice, and by trampling under foot the rights of their respective legi timate sovereigns, has subjected to itself several states of Italy, thoroughly agrees. " The arbitrary measures of that aggressive power, seiz ing on the property of religious establishments (treated by it so hostilely and dispersed), furnished the subject of the note which the undersigned Cardinal Secretary of State ad dressed in April, last year, to the hon. members of the dip lomatic body at the Holy See. That communication had for its object the prevention of the inhabitants of the coun try as well as foreigners from purchasing any of the pro perty which the said government might offer for sale, by warning them that all such purchases were null and void. On that subject the undersigned pointed out how iniquitous, as regards justice and honesty, the purchase of such pro perty would be. He afterwards mentioned the provisions of canon law which, with a view to defend and render in violate the patrimony of the Church, visit with censure and other severe punishments, both the usurpers of ecclesiasti cal property and all who in any manner assist or participate in those sacrilegious spoliations. At the same time he ob served that every one had been warned against those pur chases by the solemn words of the Pope in the allocution of the 17th December of the previous year, an allocution in which his Holiness complained of and protested against the projected sale of ecclesiastical property, and loudly reproved and declared null and void all that might be done by the usurping government, regardless of the sacred rights and inviolable patrimony of the Church, and to the detriment of the religious corpora tions and of their properties. From that declaration evi dently results the nullity and the absolute invalidity of the purchase of property made by those who have usurped it without any right. " Since, however, in spite of the just protests of the august Chief of the Church, the government which projected that unjust spoliation persists in carrying it into execution, and that in consequence it puts forward different plans for effecting sales of ecclesiastical property, the undersigned finds himself compelled to return by the present note to a subject so much to be regretted, and once more to declare, in the name of the Holy Father, that whoever shall con clude any contracts with the usurping government, touch ing ecclesiastical property, whether it be sold or let on lease, or given as guarantee to the creditors of the said govern ment, or otherwise disposed of, will render himself an ac complice in attacks against the legitimate property of another, and in a sacrilegious violation of the ecclesiastical patrimony, and incur the canonical censures above alluded to, and find himself liable to have all the contracts com pletely nullified conformably to the solemn warning above mentioned of the Holy Father, warning to which his Holi ness intends to give full confirmation. To that end the Holy Father declares, in order that it may serve as a gene ral rule and close the door against any pretext, that the religious corporations, ecclesiastical establishments, and in general all institutions who are unjustly despoiled, that they always retain their rights over the property taken from them, and that the Church will never cease to claim the restitution from their unlawful possessors. "In addressing to your excellency, as well as to your honourable colleagues, the present communication, the ob-. ' ject of which is above mentioned, the undersigned avails I himself, &c., job" which he has undertaken to a successful close. Kentucky has been invaded by the Confederates at several points. General G. W. Morgan, of the Fedel army,—not to be confounded with the dashing guerilla leader, General John Morgan,— is sorely pressed in front and rear. Buell's rail road communication at Huntsville, Alabama, are cut off, and the whole of the conterminous States north of the 35th parallel of latitude swarm with guerilla bands, well trained and mounted, and sup ported by the ardent sympathy and ready encou ragement of the people. Ohio and Indiana are alarmed, and both are sending rapid reinforcements to the support of the Unionists across the Ohio, so that bloody events may be daily expected in those rich but unhappy countries. In Tennessee a body of Confederates, 900 strong, under a guerilla leader named Woodward, have taken the important town of Clarksville, at the con fluence of the Red River with the Cumberland, and but 50 miles from Nashville, where Governer Johnson, formerly a tailor and afterwards a senator, endeavours to rule with as inflexible a rod as Butler at New Orleans. There is also a report that Fort Donelson— of which the capture by the Federals in February last was the commencement of a run of luck that now seems to have turned in favour of the Confederates—has been abandoned as untenable. The names of guerilla chieftains new to fame are continually appearing in the journals. each at the head of hundreds, and in some instances of thousands of men. They take towns and vil- EXTRAORDINARY ROBBERY FROM A LOAN OFFICE. (From the Liverpool difervury.) William Lewis, the young nian remanded on the charge of being concerned. in the robbery of £219 in gold from the office of the Liverpool Loan and Investment Company, Duke-street, and Ann Jones, his aunt, also remanded on the charge of receiving part of the money knowing it to have stolen, were again brought up. Mr. S u p er i n t en d ent Kehoe, stating that the young fellow Thomas had not been apprehended, asked that the prisoners might be further remanded. He also informed the magistrate that an officer of the London police had been dis missed in consequence of not having apprehended Thomas when he had an opportunity of doing so. As this statement requires some little explanation, it may be mentioned that a few days after the rob bery took place Mr. Rehoe received information from the metropolis that a person answering the description of the young man forwarded from Liver pool was then staying at the Tavistock Hotel, Covent-garden, and was passing under the name of Trevor. Mr. Kehoe immediately telegraphed to London requesting that an active intelligent officer might be sent to the Tavistock to apprehend M. Trevor, at the same time forwarding for his gui_ the day or two after the robbery the detective poli ce o f dance a gentleman correct, te and d. m ost Liverpool intercepted a telegr.ani from Thomas, sent to his mother—the female wan Prisoner—inf orm i ng h er that he was staying at th e Tavistock Hotel, a n d had assumed the nano of Trev or , and directing her to give "Bill " — meaning the priso ner Lewis sufficient money to take him to Lon don ; so that there was not the slightest doubt that Mr. Trevor at the Tavistock, and Thomas Thomas the Liverpool tb!,ef, were one and the same Person. According 'to Mr. Kehoe's supposed intelligent request, a officer was sent to for the hote l the purpose of apprehending the There f scoundrel. he - o '!:nd the so-called Mr. Trevor in company with a young man from Manchester. The manner in which the functionary went about b i, 3 business certainly does not exhibit much acute toss on his part. H e saw at once that Thomas was the fellow he Wanted, went up to him, and inquired if his name was the officer as Trevor. Th e thi e f sa id it was , an d £219 th en told him that he wanted him for a robbery o fat Liv erpool. With the greatest effront ery Thomas repl ied , " Oh, you are mistaken, o fficer ; I am Captain Charles Trevor, residing near Llandudno?' The detective told him if he was Captain Trevor he had a message to apprehend him. " MY good fellow," said Thomas, "I assure 3 on you are mistaken; but I don't blame you for trying to do your' duty. What will you have to drink ?" Mr. Detective took some porter, remained drinking for some time with Thomas and his friend, and at length departed from the hotel, leaving the young men there puffing their ' cigars. When he was gone Thomas told the young man that he had purposed going to the Exhibition, but he thought he should not go then, and wished him good night, also tell ing him he might him in see the morning, or he might not see him again for ten years. Thomas then proceeded to a barber's shop, and was there divested of his moustache and a slight hirsute ap pendage to his chin, and nothing has since been heard of him. Under these circumstances the police officer—a sergeant of detectives—was very properly dismissed. The prisoners were remanded. lages not marked upon the maps, but which are re presented as thriving and populous, and valuable in a strategic point of view, from tbeir command of important lines of railway communication. It is palpable that hard work has to be done in this region, and that all the efforts of Mr. Lincoln's Go vernment and Generals, and all the men he is in a position to levy, will be needed to keep those States in the Union, and that the boast of the Southern President that he could protract the war for 2 ° years after the fall of Richmond was not utt e red idly, nor without a full knowledge of his meals,,and is opportunities and the temper of the people , i` quite no wonder that Wall-street is alarmed, tiloOghte foreign eyes it is a wonder that Americans gene rally do not fully understand and appreciate the the fortiter tLey are magnitude of the contest in which as seem in re, en gaged, and from which their own bo a incompetent to extricate them.

The Cabmen of the metropolis, desirous only of obtain. ing their just rights, and of obtaining them by legitimate means, have abandoned the idea of a strike (on Mr. Punch's hint about licences), and new wish to act reason ably. They have therefore drawn up the following heads of the Law, as they wish it to stand, and if public opinion is with them, they hope to get the Cab-Act amended next Session in conformity with the following memoranda :- 1. Free trade in cabs. Every driver to charge what he likes. 2. Tradesmen in other departments stick one price on the goods in the window and take another, and the Cabman ought to be allowed to do the same. 3. No person to ask for a ticket. 4. No number or badge of humiliation to be worn. 5. No number to be affixed to the cab. OUR DUCAL HOUSES.—With the exception of those two ducal titles which have been won by a Churchill and a Wellesley respectively, and to some extent at least, t few others which owe their existence to King Chailes 11., the rest of the titles which stand in the highest rank of our nobility are mostly the Jesuit of the fusion of two, throe, or more fortunes together by the marriage of heiresses. Thus the proud Dukedom of Norfolk has absorbed into itself the castle and broad acres of the Fitzalans, Earls of Arundel, and the Duke of Richmond has added a large Scottish rent-roll to his English estates, through his grandmother, the heiress of the Dukes of Gordon ; thus, the noble house of Buckingham (we speak of half a century ago), had grown great in the same way, by the addition of the Temple to the Grenville property, and, subsequently, by absorbing the inheritance of the princely Chandos, and that of the old Earls Nugent; the Duke of Buccleuch has united in himself, by a similar pro northern oess, the wealth of the Queensberries, the Douglasseli, and the Montagues; and thus, too, the Duke of Sutherland, of more recent times, has incorporated together with the , process in the latter case, that, ancient inheritance of the Levesons of Staffordshire. ar the Gowen of Yorkshire, the entire estates belonging t o unable to digest a further two Scottish heiresses, who brought as their marriage portions the lordship of nearly the whol© of two counties, those of Sutherland and C romartY. ind ee d , so thrown off two , vast has been the absorbing as if sated with its wealth, end supply, thelast-named most a 1 younger cadet branches, each 1T 1 1 3, 3 , endowed, in the ducal house h as persons of the Earl of Ellesmere and.
