(FROM A CORRESPONDENT OF THE MECHANICS' MAGAZINE.) It is not from a de-ire to withhold any useful knowledge hat I have I bus long deferred fulfilling! that promise I some time since made, to furnish you with a method of brewing beer at a much cheaper rate than is usually done. The article I use is well known to most people by the name of mangel-wur zel, and is, in many respects, well worth every per son's attention. It is very easy to cultivate, and I will give some further account of it previous to the season for sowing. The process for brewing is, to take as many of the roots as you choose to brew, wash them well, slice them across, and fill any sized boiler with them, so cut ; add as much water as the boiler will hold, and, if possible, lay a weight of some sort on the mots to keep them under the water; after boiling them for about an hour and a half they must be taken out, well broken, and pres sed, as the strongest part of the liquor remains in the roots. After they are well pressed, put the liquor that comes from them and the water they were boiled in together, and reduce, by boiling, to any strength you please ; and then put in what quantity of hops is thought necessary, and boil for one Lour. Cool the liquor as quickly as possible, and put a sufficient quantity of yeast to work it, as ale is generally done. After saying so much, it may be thought by some superfluous to add more; but as this is intended chilly for those who have not been much in the habit of brewing, I will beg leave to give the pro cess by which I have lately brewed. I took 150Ib. of the roots, being the quantity my boiler would hold, boiled, bruised, and pressed, as above, adding one pound of hops, which I infused all night in some of the hot liquor; and by a saccharometer I have made, such as is recommended by Mr. Sodding ton, in vol. ix. p. 361, of your very valuable Maga zine, I reduced the liquor to the strength of about 281 b. of saccharine matter to the barrel of 36 gallons. I then boiled the hops in the liquor one hour, cooled it as soon as possible to 70 degrees of Fahrenheit, and then added one pound of good yeast, let it stand twenty-four hours, then beat it in, and again in twelve hours ; I then took off all the yeast. I could, after letting it stand six hours ; in six hours more I again took all the yeast off, and tunned the beer, allowing it to work well out of the barrel. When done 's ocking, I put in a handful of cold hops I reserved for the pitrpose, stirred them well in the barrel, and in a few hours bunged it down. The result is sixteen gallons of ale, apparently very strong, of a very fine flavour, and equal to any malt ale. The whole expense thereof does not exceed seven shillings, which is only 5/d. per gallon for ale which would not disgrace a Nobleman's table. The refuse left from the press is excellent food for pigs.—Laceby, near Grimsby. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. LONDON MARKETS. (From the New London Price Current of yesterday). Sels A m.—The demand for Muscovades has been limited this week, the purchases are only about 1,500 hhds. and tcs. ; the prices on Tuesday generally gave way 6d. to ls. per cwt. ; we hare since had a steady Market. In Re fined Goods there has been more business this week than usual during the holydays; the demand arises from a few orders unexecuted for the Mediterranean, and orders for low Lumps for Hamburg ; the frost at the latter port had set in severely, and the stork of Refined Goods very limit ed. Some parcels were frozen up at Cuxhaven. Mo lasses higher. Foaxtox SUQAII.—In Foreign Sugars there are no sales this week. EAST INDIA SucAß.—The purchases are confined to small parcels Bengal Sugars at the late prices. WEST INDIA MOLASSES.—There are some sales of ord. at 195., and good at 21s.

Tile Officers were perma nently stationed at Dublin ; and they respec tively made out their charge and settled their accotintt ht . the Records in the King's Auditor - General's Ofhce, to which the farmers by their patents had free access. On the determination of the farms in the reign of James 11., it was judged expedient to adhere to the course of collection established by the farmers, and accordingly new officers were appointed, under the same titles of Clerk of the Quit Rents and ACcountant-Gentral and the rents were put in charge with the Collectors of the other Revenues, all of whom were permanent officers, subject to the controul and directions of the Commissioners of the Revenue, whose ac counts of the several Revenues under their ma.. nagement were examined by the Auditor-Gene ral, and, on his allowance, passed in the Court of Exchequer. On the abolition of the General Board of Re venues and distribution of their functions among the new and distinct offices then created, the ma nagement of the land revenue devolved on the Commissioners of Excise, by whose officers the rents were thenceforth collected. The official regulations for the transaction of the business have been occasionally altered ; but the - mode of collection, and the establishment of officers in trusted with the immediate superintendence of it, and with the conduct of the proceedings relating to the demised estates of the Crown, remained nearly on the same footing from the periods at which they were first placed under the controul of the General Commissioners of Revenue. One of the objects desired to be obtained by the transfer of the Management of the Land Revenues to this Board, was to relieve the Excise Department from the duty of collecting them, which the Commissioners of Revenue Inquiry had represented to be attended with material im ' pediments to the due execution of the more im portant services entrusted to the Collectors of Excise in Ireland, and to an assimilation of their duties with those of the same class of Officers in Great Britain, and otherwise productive of much inconvenience and prejudice to that branch of the Public Revenues. To obviate these evils, we are empowered by the Act of Parliament to appoint as many per sons as shall be necessary to collect and receive the Crown rents, under the like regulations, as are in force in England. But after our discovery of the imperfect condition of the Crown rentals, to which we have already adverted, and mature consideration of other circumstances bearing on a due collection of this revenue, we felt doubtful of the expediency of an immediate appointment of such Receivers, and therefore on our sugges tion a clause was introduced into the Bill, au thorizing the Collectors of Excise to continue to receive the rents arising within their respective districts, under the regulations in that behalf contained in the Act, until we should appoint proper receivers of the same. Further inquiry confirmed us in the opinion that it Would be ad visable to defer an exercise of the power of ap pointment, until we should be put in possession of the perfect and authentic rent-roll and parti• cular of the Crown possessions, in course of compilation under the direction of the Commis sioners of Public Records, and also be enabled to make such new official arrangements as would be necessary to assure the performance of the duties required to be executed by the Receivers ; otherwise it appeared to us, however diligently CROWN LANDS, REVENUES, &c. SIXTH REPORT OP THE COMMISSIONERS. (FURTHER EXTRACTS•) OFFICES IN IRELAND TO BE REDUCED OR ABOLISHED. As some of the functions of the officers at tached to the former administration of the land revenue would be superseded by the new regu lations, and perhaps the maintenance of some of their respective offices become unnecessary, clauses were inserted in the Act of Parliament, whereby the Lords of the Treasury are em powered to abolish or reduce any office con nected with the management of the Crown estates and land revenues in Ireland, and to discharge the officers filling the same, whether their ap pointment shall have been by Letters Patent, Warrant under the Sign Manual, or otherwise; and also, to cause any records or other muni ments, belonging to such offices, to be removed to and preserved in any other office or place which their Lordships may appoint for that purpose. The powers thus vested in the Treasury have been, on our suggestion, already exercised in the case of the Forfeiture Office, to which we shall presently advert ; and there are other offices which, with a view to public economy, and the facilitation of the business of this depart ment, may hereafter call for a further exercise of them. But we have thought it prudent to defer any definitive proceedings towards such changes, until we shall have had sufficient practical knowledge of the functions discharged by the officers in question, to enable us to form a cor rect judgment on the expediency of the altera tions contemplated. In the case of the establishment of officers in the department called the Forfeiture Office, which appeared to be wholly unnecessary for any prac tical purpose connected with the management of the few fomfeited estates remaining vested in the Crown, we recommended, in a report we pre sented to the Lords of the Treasury in Septcin ber last, that it should be immediately abolished, and the custody of the records and other !miniments belonging to it transferred to the Clerk of the Quit Rents. The proposed measures being approved of, their Lordships, in pursuance of, the powers and authority vested in them as above mentioned, formally abolished the said office, to gether with the several offices composing it, and discharged the officers by whom they were re spectively filled, from the performance of any duties theretofore conaected therewith. At the same time their Lord Ships signified to us, that on consideration of the nature and tenure of those offices, and the period during which the officers had respectively enjoyed the emoluments annexed to them, they were of opinion that the offices were sinecure situations, the emoluments of which the possessors might reasonably expect to retain during their lives, and therefore, that it would be just and proper that pensions should be granted to those persons, equivalent to their Salaries, abating fractions of a pound, viz.:— Per And. To Dugald Campbell, Esq., Register of Forfeited Estates of Ireland. Mr. Charles Taylor, Clerk of ae For feiture Office, Ireland Robert Reeves, Esi., Solicitor for For kited Estates in Ireland And we werc accordingly authorized to pay to them respectively such pensions out of the re venues under our management. These measures took effect from the 10th of October last. A few days afterwards Mr. Tay lor, the late clerk, died, and the pension al lowed to him ceased. 13esides the Solicitor for Forfeited Estates, we found another Law Officer, called the Soli and zealously those officeis might endeavour to collect the rents now in regular course of pas citor for king's Rents, placed on the establish ment for the " i‘lanagement of the Land Revenue. Being further informed that several years had elapsed since the last settlement of that officer's account, in the course of which period consider able sums had been paid to him on account of the Revenue ; and adverting to those parts of the Report of the Commissioners of Inquiry, in which they had taken notice of the proceedings in that Department, and likewise to a schedule of suits for the recovery of rents in arrear, and other cases relating to the Crown estates, which had been long depending at the period of our own inquiries ; we requested the Commissioners of Excise, in August, 1827, to require the said Solicitor forthwith to state and render his ac tent, advantage would very generally be take►► of their want of information as to the estates and persons respectively chargeable with them, which it would not be in our power to commu nicate to them as occasion should require; and there would consequently arise a new and large arrear, involving not only an immediate loss of Revenue, but also ultimately expensive legal proceedings, to enforce the payment of such part of it as might be found recoverable. On the passing of the Act, therefore, we en tered into an arrangement with the Co►nmis sioners of Excise, for the continued collection of the rents by their officers, until receivers should be appointed by us ; and by maintaining the same channel and form of communication counts for the business transacted by him under their authority, up to the end of tl►e last pre ceding term, in order that they might be duly examined and settled by them ; and we thought it expedient, in the meantime, to suspend his proceedings in the suits be had commenced until we could investigate the matters to which they related, and ascertain whether it would be pro per to prosecute them. Some of those causes have since been brought to a satisfactory con clusion, without further expellee to the Crown, by the ordinary course of official communication with the parties ; but we have hitherto been un able to come to any decision on the greater number of them, for want of full information of the state of the proceedings, the documents and papers relating to them being still retained by the Solicitor, to enable him to prepare his bills of costs, and to be exhibited to the proper taxing officer as vouchers and authorities for the business therein stated to have been transacted by him. We are, however, quite satisfied that the office in question is an unnecessary appewdage to this Department, and attended with useless expence to the Revenue ; and thergfore we pro pose to recommend that it be abolished, as soon as the accounts of the present officer shall be finally examined and settled, and the muni ments, proceedings, &c., in his keeping delivered over to us, and which, we are informed, may now be expected to be shortly effected. MODE OF COLLECTING LAND REVENUE IN IRELAND. with the Excise Collectors as were formerly used, and for subjecting all new and special instructions to those officers, relating to the Land Revenue, to the previous inspection and sanction of the Local Board of Excise, we have effectually pre cluded the inconvenience which might have resulted from a distinct exercise (as would otherwise have been occasionally necessary), of the powers of control and direction over those officers now vested in the respective Boards. Under this temporary arrangement, the rents continue to be collected by the Local Officers of Excise ; and by the unremitted zealous exertions of the Clerk of the Quit Rents (Mr. Burke) a considerable amount of long outstanding arrears has been lately recovered, and the accounts in that Department are brought into a more regular state than they appear to have been during a long series of years previously. COURSE OF REMITTANCE OF RENTS COLLECTED. According to the Excise Regulation, the Col lectors remitted the Crown rents, with the Excise Duties collected by them periodically, to the Re ceiver General of Customs and Excise in Dub lin ; by whom the particular amount of the sums arisen from Land Revenue was ascertained, and then paid into the Bank of Ireland, where it was placed to the credit of the proper Exchequer account. The same course of proceeding was continued until a few months ago, when the Office of Receiver-General was abolished, and a All the Land Revenues of the Crown were new mode of remittance of the Excise Revenue, anciently collected by the respective Sheriffs of through the Agents of the Provincial Bank of the Counties in which the premises were situ- Ireland, was established ; and it therefore became ated, who accounted for the same, on oath, to immediately necessary to provide for the general the Courts of Exchequer.

The total yearly amount of the charge will probably be about 1751.; and having regard to the perfect security and acc,,m modation afforded to this Revenue by the agency of the Bank, under the existing arrangements with it, and to the reason assigned by the Com pany, we do not see any reasonable ground o objection to the charge for the service in question,. WOODS AND FORESTS. WHITEHALL AND SALCZY rotasTS. Under an Act passed in the sth of Geo. IY., c. 99, for dividing and inclosing a part of W hit tlewood Forest, in the county of Northampton, there has been allotted to his Majesty, in seve ralty, about 490 acres, in compensation for in termixed and qualified rights over 1,412 aereg, which have been disafforested by the operation of that Act : and under a like Act, of 6th Gco. IV., with respect to Salcey Forest, in the cowl ties of Buckingham and Northampton, ab,ut 1,200 acres have been acquired, in severalty, by allotment and exchange, in lieu of the undivided , rights of his Majesty over the whole Forest, containing 1,847 acres. With the exception of two small detached parts in Whittlewood Forest, containing Ithout 29 acres, with a lodge and some buildings, which have been sold for the sum of 972/. Os. 3d., the whole of the before-mentioned allot ments have been inclosed, and are in the course of being planted. NEW FOREST. In the New Forest, inclosures which► had been taken in from the waste and planted about the year 1777, and in which the young trees were l in general, past danger of browsing by deer a►;'t cattle, have been thrown open ; and portions of two inclosures, formed in the years ISO 9 and 1810, and since found not to be adapted to the growth of oak timber, have been restored to the waste of the Forest ; and a Commission has issued under the Exchequer Seal, authorising new inclosures to be made to the extent of those thrown open, the same being 753 acres. The whole of these proceedings are according to the provisions of the Acts of 9th and 10th William 111., c. 36, and 48th Geo. 111., c. 74, by which. the quantity which can be kept inclosed against deer and commonable cattle at one and the same time is limited to 6,000 acres. PARKHURST FOREST. It has also been determined to plant about 250 acres, part of Parkhurst Forest, in the Isle of Wight, which, at the time when the general inclosure of that Forest took place, in the year 1812, was reserved fur the encampment or exer cise of troops; but having never since been used for that pu'rpose, and the land having lain waste, and nearly unproductive, we thiiik it advisable that it should no longer continue in that state, but that it should be added to the quantity Of Forest Land already appropriated to the growth of timber. By these measures nearly 2,700 acres, which have not heretofore produced any revenue what ever to the Crown, will be added to the quantity of hind already appropriated to the growth of navy timber.
