HIGHLAND AND AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY OF SCOTLAND. ABERDEEN, Thursday.—The weather having been exceedingly fine, yesterday a very large con course of people assembled in the show ground, notwithstanding that ls. from each visitor was charged for admission. The show of implements was greatly enhanced by the addition of the trial machines that had beep used in the field on Tues day, and the working o f var i ous mo d e l s w hi c h th e exhibitors managed to put in practical operation. But the English exhibitors complain that they have not been able to do justice to their implements and machines in this respect in consequence of the rules of the show. At the Royal Agricultural Society of England each exhibitor has a space of ground for his own productions and the judges, after looking them over carefully, order selections to be made for trial, and then there is a classification of articles selected, but in this show-yard the classifica tion is made when the entries are registered, so that an exnibitor from England, if he has sent his ar ticles under the charge of one man qualified to describe them, has the mortification of seeing one thing put into one place and the other parts of his collection placed some hundreds of yards apart from it, the uses of some of the machines being necessarily more inferred than fully known by the judges who award the prizes. Here also there is a great drawback to the comfort of the exhibition from want of cover. The whole yard, containing 14 acres of ground, is exposed, so that had the weather been rainy the exhibition must have been a failure. The show to-day was the largest and most im portant of all the exhibitions of the society. There were no fewer than 450 cattle, 180 horses, 590 sheep, 79 pigs, and 366 articles of daily produce on the ground. The progress of the society will, however, best appear when we put these entries in comparison with those of 1834 and 1847, when the society exhibited their stock at Aberdeen :- 1834. 1840. 1847. 1858. Cattle . 188 .. 269 361 450 Sheep 192 .. 126 .. 230 .. 590 Pigs Horses .. 77 .. 88 105 .. 189 Total .. 515 .. 544 .. 720 .. 1,308 The cattle shown to-day presented a yet more gratifying proof of progress than the increased number of entries indicates, for instead of oxen fed up without much regard to symmetry or cost of feeding, the whole of the animals were carefully fed, and the prize stock was held by the judges to be the finest that had ever passed through their hands. In 1834 the prize ox was fed by the late Earl of Kintore, and was such a shapeless and un wieldy animal that he had to be literally drawn to the show-yard on a cart prepared for the purpose ; but no animal appeared to-day with points to com plain of, and all the exhibitors were complimented on their strict adherence to the condition which obliges the breeder to aim at producing the best possible animal at the lowest possible cost in feeding. In the department of short-horns and polled breeds the show was very extensive, and a severe competition took place between the chief breeders of Scotland and England. The first prize for bulls calved before Jan., 1856, was gained by Mr. Wetherell, of Darlington, bred by himself. Mr. Douglas, Athelstaneford, Drem, got the first prize for a very fine cow, and took several other prizes by stock which had been successful at the great shows of England and Ireland ; but the native short-horns were quite a match for the stock from the south on this occasion. The polled breed was chiefly sup ported Mr. M'Combie, of Tillyfour, who carried off the first prizes in every section, and received a medal given by the French Government, and gold medal given by the Highland Society, in addition to prizes, the former medal being given for an aged bull bred to Mr. Bowie, and now in Mr. M'Combie's hands. A prize cow of this stock brought £B5 at Mr. M'Combie's sale last year. The competition was remarkable to-day, also, as being a keen con test on equal terms between landholders and tenants, the result bein O m in favour of the latter. Lord Strathallan, the Earl of Southesk, Lord Kinnaird, and other noblemen took prizes for prime stock ; but Mr. Harvey, of Tillygreig, Mr. Hay, of She thin, Mr. Martin, Aberdeen, Mr. C ru i c k s h an k, of ittyton, and other practical farmers, in short horns and crosses, carried away the leading prizes, and for fat oxen their stock was pronounced per fect. The show of horses was a very fine one, but not equal to the Clydesdale show of last year. There were some very superior draught stallions, and, from the large number entered in competition, the progress of improvement was very evident. The sheep were much admired, especially the native breeds ; but the Cheviots were in large numbers, and the prizes were carried away chiefly by the south country breeders. The society has never succeeded in eliciting any thiitg like a general interest in the breeding of inc in Scotland; but the 79 pigs shown to-day were superior to those at former shows. There was a good display of dairy produce, and it is worthy of notice here that, after long and arduous competition among churn-markers, the first prize has been awarded to Mr. Philip Hunter, of Edinburgh, for an improvement on the old plump churn, by which butter shown to-day was made in 18 minutes. There was a large number of entries for fowls, and here again, after a severe contest, the Cochin China has had to yield to the lively Dorking and the common barn-yard fowl. As accessory to the show, there was an exhibi tion of flowers, and a remarkable display was made of an almost endless variety of native and natu ralised sorts. There have been one or two lectures on agricul ture connected with the exhibition, and to-night there is to be a public dinner, presided over by the Duke of Atholl, in place of the Prince Consort, who was at one time expected to be present and take the chair. The attendance in the show-yard to-day was the largest ever known in connexion with the exhibi tions of the society. At one time it is believed that there were from 15,000 to 20,000 per sons in the show-yard. The city is quite full, and lodgings have been for some days at a premium. The most perfect order prevailed throughout the grounds to-day, notwithstanding the immense crowd, and all the arrangements of the committee, under the able direction of the secretary, Mr. Hall Maxwell, have been admirably carried out.

The following exquisitely graphic description of a maiden speech in the House of Commons we ex tract from a brilliant article, closing the September number of Blackwood's Magazine. Few will fail to recognise the master-hand to which the readers of " Maga " are indebted for the paper in question, entitled "The Commons at Cherbourg," the hand that has already penned. "Ten Thousand a-year." The subjoined is manifestly a fragment of truthful autobiography : " I was present, too, when you made your debut," said one, turning to another, who good-naturedly gave the fol lowing account of his passage through that terrible ordeal. " I had resolved not to open my lips del ug my first ses sion," said he, "and kept my resolution linr!y during the three months, except that I had once to present a petition ; and when the Speaker suddenly called out my name, for which, at the moment, I was not prepared, a mist came over my eye, and the paper trembled in my hands, during the few inarticulate words in which I endeavoured to indi cate its object. Bring it up,' quoth the late Speaker, iz that melodious voice of his, which will never be forgotten by those who heard it; and having handed in my petition to the clerk, he crammed it, with a matter-of-fact air, into a bag, and so ended my first experiment on the indul gence of the house. At leng ih, however, I was urged by one whose position entitled him to be heard with respect, to endeavour to address the house, for several reasons ; which he urged so forcibly, that I reluctantly assented, and promised, but with an inward spasm, to speak on a particular question, when it next came before the house. It was one of great public interest and importance, but not within the category of patty questions. Shor ay afterwards I left town, and took an early opportunity of shaping my thoughts into a short address. The subject was one with which I was familiar, and yet I was so nervously appre hensive and fastidious, that I wrote out my speech eight times before I could please myself I should have gone on writing it, up to the present moment, if I had not reflected that I had just three weeks time left to commit it to memory—" " Commit it to memory ?" inquired one or two surpris edly—" why, surely, you were 110 novice in pub—" " Yes—l committed it to memory, verbatim et literatim, for breaking the ice of the House of Commons is a fearful business to any one. If I repealed it once, I repeated it at least a hundred times--whenever I had the opportunity of being alone ! I tried, moreover, to prepare myself for the awful moment at which, on my rising, the cry of New Member I' would cause every other who had risen, not so entitled, to resume his scat, leaving me standing in solitary ' possession' of that fearful house I I kept my own coun sel ; and as the appointed day drew near, and I thought of the break-down' which would be ruthlessly recorded by the truthful reporters, and amuse so many good-natured pitying friends round the breakfast-tables, and at the clubs, next morning—felt myself more and more disposed to give the thing up in despair. At length arrived the day, big with my little fate. I repeated the speech in my dressing-room that morning, as usual, but, alas I more inaccurately than ever, and felt sick at heart. I dined, very slightly, at three o'clock, andshortly afterwards took a glass of port wino, with an egg beaten up in it to clear my voice. Then down to the house I went, sighing at every step with Dalivty and apprellewip, afraid to look any body'in the face, and lapsed into a sudden taciturnity, and took my seat on one of the back benches, cold as death. Presently entered the noble lord who was to open the dis• cussion, and my heart began to beat. He was one of only two who knew that I should attempt to speak. Oh, how I en vied his perfect self-possession ! his practical knowledge of the house, and his own weight and position in it ! Then another, and another, and another rose ; I getting less and less sell-possessed, as time wore on. I had resolved to wait till the house had, so.to speak, ebbed down to dead low din ner point, viz., eight o'clock. You're going to speak— it's written all over your face,' said Sir sitting next to me, good-hrunouredly. I whispered in the affirma tive ; for at that particular moment I dared not tell a fib, ' Well, you won't rise before rine, of course, and I'll run and get dinner I That will do, won't it ?" Yes,' I faltered, inwardly adding' By that time it will do, or I shall have been done for !' Away he went; and resolving to follow the speaker who next rose, I slipped out to the refreshment stand, and took a glass of Seltzer-water, with a small dash of cognac in it, and returned to my seat. There were then about thirty members in the house, but among them, most of the leading men, on whose absence I had anxiously cal culated. I glanced at the reporters' gallery, and down again, in trepidation ; _the strangers' gallery was crowded, the one might have to chronicle what the other would wit ness—a break-down ! ' For these reasons, sir,' quoth the speaker then on his legs, lookinground for his hat, ' I shall unhesitatingly—' I heard no more ; doWn he sat ; my heart knocked against my ribs almost audibly ; I trembled front head to foot ; I took off my hat, up rose seven or eight members ; Shall I rise ?' I gasped to myself : I did rise very slowly ; then the cry new member !' appalled my ear ; every one of the disappointed members looked sternly, or at least with pique, at me, for whom they were forced to suppress their statistics and eloquence a little, it might be, a very little longer and left me standing alone. At that moment the lively image rose before my mind's eye, of a solitary culprit arrived at his last moment on the scaffold. I had my written speech in my pocket ; what world I not have given for leave to read the well-worn familiar little document, bodily, to the complaisant house ? However, I began, huskily, trembling like an aspen leaf, and got through my first two sentences ; oh ! the dismal horrid silence there was. " ' Ay, I was there, I perfectly recollect ; it was intense, and I felt for you,' interrupted the Deputy-Sergeant-at- Arms. "At the end of the second or third sentence my memory failed me ; I slipped, so to speak, ' off the rail,' and thought ' here I go!' I managed ; however, to throw in an allusion to the noble lord who had opened the debate, that enabled me to recollect myself ; and I happily got on the line again But, cette afremse silence continued. Not one solitary ' hear' from any part of the house ; nor any whispering, or any convervation, which I should have hailed as an in expressible relief ! Scribble, scribble, scribble went the pens of the ruthless recording angels in the gallery to my right. I thought of them for an instant with terror. After I had been speaking about five minutes, thank Heaven I a kindly and decided ' hear issued from the opposite side, followed by one or two on my own side ; the effect was truly inspiriting on me ; the house had seen the agitation with which I was speaking, and generously encouraged me, till at length I was enabled to get through a speech o 2.5 minutes' time, without having'missed more than a word or two of what I had prepared ; having had presence o mind, moreover, to throw in one or two allusions to what had fallen from preceding speakers, and resumed my scat ; having delivered my maiden speech, which I would not have to do again for a thousand pounds !" " How were you received when you sate down ?" " Ah, that does not signify !" " Well, how did you figure in the papers next morning ?" asked one. " At much greater length than I had the least right to expect, and in two of the chief ones, almost word for word." " Whew !" exclaimed a young member, who had lis tened very anxiously, " I'm disposed, after this, to put off my little business till the Greek Kalends--" THE COUNCIL OF INDIA. Yesterday, at 2 o'clock, the new Indian Council met for the first time. They assembled in the board room in which the Court of Directors have been for years accustomed to hold their meetings, at the India-house, in Leadenhall-street. Lord Stanley, the Secretary of State for India, arrived at the India-house half an hour before the time of meet ing. Mr. Henry Baillie, joint secretary to the Board of Control, and Sir George Clerk, the per manent secretary, were also in attendance. The members of the Council present were :—Sir Fred. Currie, late Chairman of the Court of Directors ; Sir Henry Rawlinson, General Sir Robert Vivian, Sir Henry Montgomery, Mr. J. P. Willoughby, Mr. Win. Arbuthnot, Mr. Mills, Sir James Weir Hogg, Mr. Elliott Macnaghten, Captain Eastwick, and Mr. H. T. Prinsep. The first six are nominees of the Crown, and the remainder are part of the elected members. Sir John Lawrence, one of the eight nominated members, was, of course, absent, as was also Sir Proby Cautley, another of the Cown nominees. The whole of the elected mem bers were in attendance, except Captain Shepherd, who was absent from indisposition, and Mr. R. D. Mangles, who is understood to be on the Continent and absent from a similar cause. At two o'clock Lord Stanley took the chair, and announced the names of the members to whom her Majesty, by virtue of the power conferred on her by the Act, had been pleased to nominate to the Council. A return of the members elected by the Court of Directors was also formally made, and the Council was then constituted. The sitting, which lasted upwards of two hours, was occupied chiefly in settling the future mode of procedure ; and the President, in exercise of the authority conferred upon him by the Act, divided the Council into committees, for the more convenient transaction of business, and also nominated the Vice-President, selecting for that office from among the Council, Sir Frederick Currie, the late chairman of the East India Company.
