THORLEY'S FOOD FOR article CATTLE.- It is only a short time since this singularly efficacious „ of animal diet first its a ; analread Z c elebrity is world - wide. It ade has been a earance subject of wonder, b ro u has puzzled many a brain to explain how this has been p n light about. Yet when we are acquainted with a few facts i'neerning the food, our wonder will cease. A few days si nce, Zentleman wrote, stating that he had a horse which was ti terfec . t bap; of b coones." He tried all kinds of things to get annnal into ndition, but in vain. He then bought some y food ; and he says the effect was wonderful. The h orse rapidly grew fat, and in the course of a few weeks had "'fled no less than 12 stones. Again we find at the late agri enltural shows at Birmingham, Cardiff, &c., the animals which prried off the highest prizes had been partly fed with Thor iteY's food for cattle. Such facts speak for themselves, and we Jon i forced to the conclusion that its celebrity arises solely joni its own intrinsic merits, and the great demand for it can ; r oe, eed alone from the good opinion and testimony of those " 0 have tried it. All parties interested in horses and cattle Will do well to apply to 77, Newgate-street, London, for a Par nAhlet which is sent post-free.

BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, 37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Hono rary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Li centiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &C., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fear ful consequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Manhood, and premature. decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condi tion, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health happiness, and privileges to which every human being is en titled. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self- Indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigate 1, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure,_ Published by J.

There was a splendid show of fat cattle and poultry, at Darlington, a few days ago, being the sixth annual exhibition of the South Durham and North Yorkshire Society. The various specimens exhibited very general admiration and did great credit to the breeders. We extract the following excellent report of the doings in the evening from the Darlington and Stockton Times. That excel lent reformer, Mr. Howard, of Corby Castle, pre sided on the festive occasion with becoming eclat:— THE DINNER. In the evening about 200 gentlemen dined at the Sun p o p f o C rt o e rb d y o C n as h t i le s , Cumber land, Inn. Major-Generaloccupied Philip c H hG o a Lc r , White Melville, Esq., W. H. W. Todd. Esq., J. N. Collyer, Howard, beinghe Esq., su Duke of Cleveland, K.G., Esq., of Hurworth-upon-Tees, and Col. Coiling, of Red Hall; and on his left by H. Pease, Esq., M.P., T. Wilkin. son, Esq., J. Miller, Esq., and the Rev. J. G. Pearson. The vice-chair was filled by Lord Harry Vane, M.P. Among other gentlemen we also noticed th e Rev. Canon Dugard, of Barnard Castle, the Rev. G. G. Lynn, vicar of High Coniscliffe, Joseph W. Pease, Esq. J. Dodds, Esq., of Stockton, E. Scarth and J. F. Scarth, Esqrs., of Kever stone, T. Al , lison, Esq., J. Coiling, .Esq., G. Richmond, Esq., C. L. Bradley, Esq., of Richmond, and Captains Coates, Sherlock, and Bradley, of the North York Rifles; Messrs. W. Thompson, J. Stephenson, R. Thompson, &c. The cloth having been drawn, and dessert introduced, The CHAIRMAN rose in the midst of enthusiastic cheer ing, and said—Lord Harry Vane, my Lord Duke, and Gen tlemen, the first toast which I have the honour to propose is one which you all anticipate with feelings of affection and loyal homage. I give you the health of her gracious Majesty the Queen. (Cheers.) During the fleeting visit of her Majesty to the town of Darlington ' I know the inhabi tants of the town and neighbourhood availed themselves with eagerness of the opportunity afforded them of seeing her Majesty, the Prince Consort, and the Royal Family. A very great event has recently taken place in a far distant dependency, the Queen having been proclaimed the supreme ruler of thst rich and vast empire for which Alexander sighed in vain. (Loud cheers.) I know her beneficent sway will be attended with renovated peace and prosperity —(renewed cheers)—and, as everything will have to undergo a thorough and seareilieng investigation, we may be allowed to hope that the poor toiling cultivator of India will not so exclusively have to bear the weight of taxation as he now has. (Hear hear.) I trust, gentlemen, we shall long continue t o drink this toast with enthusiasm, and I am sure you will all respond to it with hearty good will and loyal affection. (Loud applause.) The toast was drunk with all the honours. The CHAIRMAN next proposed the health of the Prince Thefiel d Princeand at Birmingham , a C o s or thadl t e i and Consort, the Prince of W a l es , an d th e rest o f t h e roya l . family. ys a u n c o c t e h s e sf r ull ye y ar exhi he t t i i t i t e d ch at ai ti an th; trusted he would deign to enter the hsts as a competitor at Darlington. (Loud chee rs .) Hi s R oyal H i ghness well knew that this district was the cradle and classic ground of the shorthorn breed of cattle, mid were he to enter the lists they would than very likely be able to see specimens of those Devons and Herefords which under his auspices had won premiums elsewhere. Besides taking ' an interest in agriculture, his Royal Highness was an eminently scientific man, and a promoter of the fine arts. (Applause.) The CHAIRMAN then called upon Lord HARRY VANE to propose the next toast. That nobleman said, in obedience to the call of the chairman, who, however was able to perform the duty better and much more gracefully than himself, he begged leave to propose the health of the prelates who preside over the diocese of Durham and the adjacent diocese, namely, that of Ripon—and of the clergy. We, of the diocese of Durham, had had the good fortune of having had appointed to preside over the clergy a right reverend prelate who long presided over the diocese of Ripon, where he gained the affection, alike of the clergy and laity, and now that he was installed in our diocese, the same feeling existed towards him. (Applause.) In saying this, he was sure he was only expressing what he under stood to be the general feeling of regard and attach ment entertained for the right reverend prelate, and for the most part of the clergy, by the community at large. (Applause.) He would have them acknowledge, by their response to the toast, the exemplary manner in which the clergy discharged their duties, and the beneficial re sults of their preaching and teaching. (Applause.) The Rev. J. G. PEARSON rose to respond. [Here a call was raised for Mr. Dugard by Mr. W. Robinson ' clerk to tbe'Board of Guardia ns, and Mr. R. Benson, but this was oveipowero d a counter call for Mr. Pearson, whoa, name appeared on the toast list ; the meeting thus enipha tically endorsing the arrangements of the council of the society.] Finding his name, he said on the list of toasts, he presumed he should have the pleasure of returning thanks on behalf of the prelates and clergy of this tttul the ittligtt= boning diocese. lie should have been glad had the task fa'len into better hands, but he might say that no one ap preciated more fully than himself the kindness with which the toast had been received. With respect to the Bishop of Ripon, the highest compliment which could be paid him was, that his appointment to the see had given much happiness and infinite pleasure to his venerable and revered predecessor, Dr. Longley. Regarding Dr. Longley him self, he could only echo the words of the vice-chairman — they knew him to be what he . said he was. (Hear.) This was fully proved on the occasi a of his coming to Darling ton. He came over and gave us one of those admirable addresses which he (Mr. Pearson) was perfectly certain will be remembered many years to come, and his only hope was that the effect of it will be manifested among us by in creased attention to the interests and education of our. people. (Loud cheers.) He would also take that day as a specimen of the bishop's life. After giving us a deeply im pressive sermon, did he retire to his palace as Thackeray or Dickens would paint a bishop, and spend the rest of the evening in his comfortable dining-room, sipping his cool bottle of claret ? (Applause.) No Ihe went to a colliery village to speak words of comfort to the widow and the orphan, and to warn the too reckless miner of the necessity of preparing for death and eternity. Our bishop, he would assure them, had thrownnew life into the minds of the clergy, and his example had been such as was well worthy of imi tation. (Cheers.) His having visited first one place and then another inhis diocese showed clearly that his intention was to redeem the pledge he had made on first coining among us, that he hoped two years would not pass by without his having preached in every principal church in the diocese. (Applause.) He (Mr. Pearson) felt deeply the honour done to the bishop, and also to the clergy, who desired nothing better than to identify themselves with their parishioners. It was their wish to do so. (Hear.) They were highly flat tered to be placed on the platform with the nobility and squirearchy of the country, but equally glad to meet their parishioners on such occasions as this. With their pa rishioners they were identified—they looked upon them as their friends, and with their co-operation he had no doubt the Church would greatly advance in utility . (Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then gave the v.,Army and Navy." He was sure the sons of agriculture and the whole of the Bri tish people were deeply grateful for the exertions put forth by the army and navy in times of peril. Whether as lately in the Crimea; or amid the tragic scenes enacted in India, they had equallydistinguished themselves. (Cheers.) He was sorry no member of the naval profession was present. but with the toast he had the honour of connecting the no bleman who sat on his right hand, and who it will be re . membered occupied a yeti; distinguished position in the army. (Cheers.) He had long served the country most as siduously with his regiment. He was sure they . all had heard with feelings of satisfaction of his Grace having offered his services to his Queen during the Crimean war—(applause) —of course with an adequate command. His Grace was known to them in many ways, and not the least was his being the patron of the South Durham and North York shire Fat Cattle and Poultry Society. He (the chairman) trusted they should long have the pleasure of drinking with feelings of respect the health of his Grace the Duke of Cleveland. (Applause.) The Noble DUKE was greeted with enthusiasm. He said : The toast which stands upon the list and which has just been proposed from the chair is the toast of the army and navy. As regards the former service you are all aware, and I must say I have the greatest satisfaction in being a member of that profession, and I may now say a very old member. Therefore, gentlemen, in whatever society I may be placed, whether it is the military society or the agricultural society, I feel equally proud to respond to such a toast as that of the army. (Applause.) I need hardly say also that it is more satisfactory to a person in responding to a toast to know that that toast is popular with his audience, for we must be aware that nothingeanbe so disheartening and discouraging to a speaker, as when he finds he is addressing an audience on a subject which he knows is unpopular. My only reason for making this remark is that I am old enough to remember when the toast of the army and navy was almost as unpo pular as it is now happily the reverse. For many years after I first entered into public life, which was on the occasion of my being returned to the House of Commons as a represen tative of this county,. I can say that a standing army was not only decried against, but many people were displeased even with the sight of a red coat. (Laughter.) Now, you may say, "why was this ?" This was just at 4he end of the Peninsular war, in which our army, instead of having disgraced its colours, had always been led to victory and at tained more glory than was ever achieved before under one man, the immortal Duke of Wellington. (Cheers.) All this seems very strange, but I think I can very soon solve the difficulty if permitted to do so. Well, then, we were at that time just at the conclusion of a very long war which had lasted 25 years. All classes more or less were engaged in war—so much so at all events that those persons who made up the ranks of middle life had scarcely ever heard from their infancy of anything but war, and the consequence was the whole country was tired of it. It had led, as you are aware, to very great expense—there was created a very large amount of misery and debt owing to that war—(hear, hear) —trade and industry were in a very dormant state—there was great distress and great discontent among the lower orders generally and added toall these evils there was avery grievous taxation to be borne, which operated to such an ex tent that trade and commerce were at a stand-still—the greater number of the lower orders were without employ ment, and even those svlja, were in work were receiving wages by no means proportionate to the high price of provisions., (Applause.) Now, gentlemen, circumstances are happily and totally the reverse. (Hear.) Instead of having any distress and discontent in the country, I believe it never was in a more healthy or prosperous state, and never did greater happiness exist than at the present day ; the channels of industry are fully open—full vent is given to employment of every sort, by the skill and capacity of some, and by the amount of capital judiciously employed by others. It is principally owing to the circumstance of there being no war that happily this state of things exists, and never, I believe, did greater happiness and contentment reign than at the present moment. (Cheers.) Before, how ever, I say anything more, permit me, gentlemen, to dwell for a moment on what had been done by our army in India. In that country the fighting has not been like fighting a common enemy—there is no glory or honour to be obtained in conquering an inglorious foe but yet they have been employed in suppressing the spirit, not of rebellion, but of mutiny in our own troops, whose acts have been as unpa ralleled in atrocity as astounding in their cause. Applause. Not one favourable word can you utter regarding the men who have risen in open mutiny and murdered their own officers—European officers. Why the very men who have so risen against our rule have been treated in the kindest manner, absolutely pampered, subsisted and clothed by our means. That they should rise in mutiny in the manner they have done by a general combination—by a simultane ous rising in every part of the country—was perfectly mon strous. Conscious of their strength—and that strength was mainly owing to the constant attention of their Euro pean officers—they had no doubt that by a general combi nation they could overwhelm and destroy the handful of men put in authority over them, as well as totally extermi nate the whol e o f th e hostile race, and then they intended to revert to their old rotten systim and place the Mo gul emperors again upon the throne. Their intention was beyond doubt to murder every European man, woman, and child. Happily, however, the rebellion has been suppressed by the superior skill and force of our little handful of soldiers. (Loud cheers.) How such an achievement was accomplished by such small numbers was most wonderful, but I think I may safely say it was entirely owing to the indomitable courage and perseverance which every English soldier is known to possess. (Loud cheers,) We all know, gent l eme n, that courage is a most useful quality, but rely upon it mere brute courage will not command success over superior n umbers — (hear, hear)—as they w h o know anything of military Pr"' tice and have studied military tactics and history well know, the more especially, as it very frequently happens, when those against whom the battle is waged have courage equal to themselves—and we all know the Asiatics are not with out courage, but would light to the very death. But wh at made the British army superior to their foes in this instance, and, what makes it 4 iPorier to every o ther army in the whole world ? Its discipline. (Applause.) It is dis cipline and discipline alone, which makes the Britis h soldier superior to any other soldier. (Applause.) That discipline is engrafted into 1, ..illl from his very first entry into the service. From the his. -sliest to the lowest, both the corn missioned officer and privat e must learn to obey the orders of his superior in command. It is this and this alone which has always commanded success in the field of battle and I trust ever will. Turning from th e past to the future, I may say I do not think that discipline is likely to deteriorate. The person who is now at the head o f the army is closely con nected with the throne. That Prince has had the good fortune to make himself beloved ky the soldier, and equally respected by every commissioned officer. (Cheers.) He makes all his appointments with discretion and much judg ment. (Hear, hear.) Il vantage of foreign service. Hi s He is E ng li s h, an d h a s had the ad whole heart and soul is devoted to the interests of the army, and I feel confident that so long as he reigns over the army, instead of deterio rating, it will, if possible, advance in efficiency. (Cheers.) I have to apologise for having detained you so long on a subject of this sort, but 'I feel deeply interested in it, and perhaps it may be the warmth of my feelings which has caused me to go so far. (Loud applause.) I trust if there is any truth in the remarks I have made, that you will not refuse to join with me in dri n ki ng heartily to the welfare and prosperity of the British army.—His Grace sat down amid loud and prolonged cheering. Th e CHAIRMAN—The next toast on the list is the " Lords Lieutenant of the districts and the magistrates." I trust that the Earl of Durham will on a future occasion be in duced to divide his support between this society and one which has recently made its appearance in the city of Dur ham. (Hear.) I believe he was formerly a contributor to this, and I trust he will at our next meeting deem it right to divide his favours between the two societies. As regards the Earl of Zetland he has been a supporter of this society front its commencement—(applause) —and though we are sorry not to see him here this evening, I believe he inspected the show this morning. I have l ong k nown hi m , an d I am sure he has the interest of agriculture at heart. (Cheers) I beg to propose the health of th e L or d s Lieutenant an d th e magistrates of the district. Col. COLLING briefly returned thanks, and said he was sorry not to see more of the magistrates prescnt. The Duke of CLEVELAND again rose, for the purpose of proposing the health of the chairman. (Appl ause. ) He be lieved that many there had not the advantage of the very long acquaintance with the chairman that he had had. He wished to introduce him to their notice, and he was most proud in doing so. A great number of them were known to him, but to a still greater number he was a total stranger. As regarded himself he might well speak of the chairman's worth, as he had had the advantage of his acquaintance now little less than 40 years. (Applause.) He recollected per fectly well when he met him at Florence and afterwards at Rome. He (the Duke of Cleveland) was at that time quite a young man travelling about for his own amusement, and their chairman was scarcely arrived at the age of manhood and was travelling with his father and mother. (Applause and laughter.) Since then the chairman had certainly turned the tables upon him, because he was in the prime and vigour of his life while he (the noble Duke) was an old man and fast going down the hill. (" No, no.") Though that was the first time they had met under the auspices of their present chairman, he certainly hoped it would not be the last time, and he was sure he would again do himself equal credit and give as much satisfaction as he had done that day. He asked them to drink the toast with three times three. (Im mense cheering.) The Cliagt4 44 i §slid, it was very true, as the Duke of Cleveland stated, that hehad not the pleasureand satisfaction of being known personally to many of those he saw before him, but he trusted that future opportunities Wotild occur of extending that acquaintance. (Applause.) He was sure he had heett deeply gratified by the kind and genial manner in which his tifddd had introduced his health to their notice. He had revived in his mind the stiffly ineinories of Italy, and in one point only had he been not quite itailrrifa ; that was in describing himself as past the age of exertion. (Laughter.) He was sure that if they saw his Grace in the hunting field—(cheers)--and saw him as they did then, at the festive board, they would not agree In the piece of au tobiography with which his Grace had just favoured them. (Loud laughter.) He would now take the leave of proposing the toast of the day, " Suc cess t o the South Durham and. North Yorkshire rat Stock and Poultry Society." (Cheers.) They must all have been'gratified that the show that morn ing was so fully attended, and he was glad to see s o nume rous and highly respectable a meeting that evening. On the renowned breed of Durham short-horns it was not ne cessary for him to expatiate. (Applause.) It had been long known to every one connected with agriculture both in this country and in. the colonies. He met the other day some gentlemen from the United States, who said they were inta porting the short-horns with eagerness. (Hear.) Specimens of the breed had been sent to Australia, and bought at a high price ; and our ally, his Majesty the Emperor of the French, had, they had heard, purchased many animals of that kind, which were shown at the exhibitions of Paris, and always with renewed admiration. (Applause.) As regarded the show of sheep, it was perhaps rather weaker and exhibited less variety than they could have wished. It had boon well said that .sheep had golden feet, that was, they fertilised the land - on which they trod. Although there may be counties other than their own which may perhaps be more exclusively devoted to the rearinti of sheep, he trusted that on a future occasion he might see them in greater number. He was sure' they were all in debted to the ladies and those who exhibited so splendid a , show of poultry. And he was also sure, whatever the rival show might be, that 'they on that head were unrivallcd. (Cheers.) They saw the stately Spanish fowls ; they saw the quaint cochins of China;' and they saw beautiful speci mens of that superlatively useful breed of poultry, the dork ing . The show not only did great honour to them as a so ciety, bat reflected upon their wives and sisters infinite cre dit. (Laughter.) He was glad to see so full and numerous a display of that useful animal the pig, which had. been de scribed by a French writer as a Proteus, because when on the table his flesh could be turned into every variety of. form, and you could use every inch of him. (Applause.) Generally, he thought they might congratulate themselves upon the exhibition, which was one, he trusted, that they should see repeated and even improved on anotheroccasion. They must make a phil oso phi ca l allowance for the eagerness of early rivalry, but there was no reason ythy this and the North Durham Society should be more t)ean rivals. When the first eagerness of rivalry had passed, he trusted matters would be so arranged with the othel soe:ety as to leave , a greater interval between the two shows. (Applause.) He trusted, at all events, that the competition would lead to the joint advantage of agriculture and its attendant benefits. He could not do better than connect with the toast the health of one who might be termed the founder of the so ciety—the High Bailiff of Darlington, Mr. Mewburn. FRANCIS Mewnmor, Esq., on rising, said he thanked them most sincerely for the honour conferred upon him by the company in drinking his health, as being connected with the society from its foundation, but ho had advanced in years, and though on former occasions he used to be talkative, he would confess he did not feel equal to the task now, but he would take the liberty of asking a favour which ho trusted they would readily grant him, and that was that his son might be allowed to respond to the toast at greater length than he prudently could. His son had laboured with assiduity on behalf of the society, and they were greatly indebted to him for its success ; and he thought he should not be going too far in saying had it not been for his and the secretary's exertions, who had acted with him, in getting up subscriptions, they should not have been. able to stand the competition they were now contending against. (Applause.) F. MEWBURN jun., Esq., then rose, and said that to the subscribers of this society, seeing that a rival society had held its first exhibition only the other day, the present was an exceedingly important epoch; perhaps he might be al lowed for a few moments to Fe into the origin, the progrese, and present position in winch they now stood. Owing to circumstances of which many of the agriculturists present were perfectly aware, a few years ago, previous to 1853, owing to the central position of Darlington, having commu nications by railway with almost every part of the kingdom —having easy access to places such as Hartlepool, Stock ton, and Middlesborough, and knowing that in the course of events it was more than probable those railway commu nications would be extended into Westmoreland and Cum berland—it occurred to the, secretary that for these several reasons Darlington was a place in which so useful a society as the one now existing might find a home. (Hear.) He mentioned the fact to the Chief Bailiff, who energetically took it up, considering the immediate supply of early ma tured food to an increasing and already large demand was worth the consideration of agriculturists as well as a point in political economy of the highest importance. After hearing the opinions of persons best able to give them, a public meeting was called, which resolved on the formation of this society, whose sixth annual exhibition they might well be proud of that day. Very shortly after that occasion they obtained the full sanction to the undertaking, and the adhesion and thorough co-operation of one of the best land lords of the kingdom, his grace the Duke of Cleveland, their patron. (Loud cheers.) At their first show they had 216 entries. Since then they had progressed with great satisfaction, because he believed few societies had given more encouragement to what this society really required to see, and he had no doubt both producers and consumers would shortly find out that it was food and not fat which did the greatest amount of good. Depend upon it, if deve lopement could be arrived at in any particular animal only by disease the food could not be good. (Hear.) He did wish to say one word against the practice of that useful but nearly defunct race of cooks, but animals whose develop ment had been arrived at in the manner named ran more to dripping than was required. (Laughter.) Well, then in accordance with a suggestion of his Grace a deputation came over from Durham for the purpose of amalgamating a North Durham society with this one, and he must beg to say, having been chairman on the occasion, they were re ceived as any person ought to be received whose mission was at the suggestion of his Grace. Notwithstanding what they had said to the contrary they were received with the utmost courtesy. (Hear, hear.) It struck the Council that if the society was to be well managed and economically carried on it could only be done by the determined co-ope ration of the town and country, which it was impossible to secure in case first one town and then another was to be visited. (Applause.) He looked upon this question not in any degree with personal animosity, but as a commercial transaction, in which the parties engaging did the very best for themselves. Mr. Mewburn then alluded to the fixing of the North Durham show on days so near those on which this society has invariably held its shows, thereby prevent ing exhibitors at the one taking advantage of the other, with one brilliant exception, Mr. Gell, of Grimston, who was mOre fortunate than his fellows. (Loud applause.) He was qufte.convinced that this act on the part of the pro moters of the North Durham society was a great error in judgment. ' He was also convinced that the chairman at their dinner (Lord Adolphus V. Tempest, M.P.) did not in any way share such a notion of rivalry. He (Mr. Mewburn) remembered distinctly at the interview with the deputation, saying that so far as any society was concerned the Council had nothing whatever to do—that they could not have any objection to another society being formed. All they refused to do was simply from a conviction that it would be impolitic to part with a positive benefit for a very uncertain future. (Loud applause.) That morning he had had a letter from Lord Adolphus V. Tempest stating his utter inability to be present that evening, but at the same time adding how very much he approved of such societies, and how much he la mented there had been any m isunderstanding between the two. Certainly that misunderstanding was not on the side of the South Durham society. Mr. Mewburn then noticed the consideration which Darlington and the neighbourhood ought to have when such occurrences take place as he had alluded to, from the fact of their subscribing such a large amount of the prize money. Then he remarked upon the features of the present show, stating that he was grievously disappointed in his expectations that there would be a good display of capons. Why in the world people in the north could not have those luxuries as well as people in the south of England and in France ho could not understand, but it rested with the exhibitors. and not with him who wished to encourage that produce for commercial purposes. Then as regarded butter, this part of the country, as everybody knew, was notorious for bad butter. (Cries of " No, no," and great uproar). Well, he was very sorry to differ withthem on a matter of taste. However, the entries for butter had proved to be greatly superior to last year. Mr. Mewburn again thanked thorn for the honour conferred on the society, and in doing so reiterated the hope that as the rise or fall of the society rested entirely with them they would closely watch its interests. (Applause.) The CHIEF BAILIFF then proposed the health of his Grace the Duke of Cleveland, which was responded to with all the honours. The noble DUKE said his health had already been proposed as a member of the military profession, now it was as a civi lian. Mr. Mewburn had referred to his services as a member of Parliament. When he first entered the House of Commons ho was a very young man, and while serving the great num ber of years he had done in that House, ho was ever trying to learn the duties of parliamentary life, and he hoped he was assiduous in the performance of those duties until called to the House of Peers. (Applause.) In whatever capacity he was placed it was always his wish to discharge his duty to the best of his ability. (Cheers.) And he would further say no thing gave him greater pleasure than to meet them on the present occasion, and witness the interest they all took in the society, and the exhibitionthen holding — not interesting Merely to those in the immediate neighbourhood, but to those situated far and wide. They had had this year, as in former years—and it was more than he had expected from circum stances which had been alluded to--competitors from very great distances, one of them coming from the north of Scot land. (Hear.) This certainly told well for a cattle show, and here was what he conceived to be the difference between a fat cattle show and a county agricultural meeting, inas ranch as at the former, if it was to exnd its usefulss through the country, persons from a distance must be II n vited to show their specimens of breeding cattle which shall be the most likely to acquire early maturity, and which shall do credit to the breeder and feeder as well as the butcher who purchased them. Now, it was not his in tention to draw a distinction between the two kinds of so cieties in order to show which was the more useful. He should certainly say both were equally useful in their way The county agricultural meeting was confined to the county in which it was located, being merely a concern for the im provement of the breed of cattle and other kinds of stock M its peculiar district. They all knew that for a great number of years those meetings had been held in every part of England—in fact they were now universal, whereas at cattle shows were not established until very recently. The Smithfield Club was the only society of this kind which had existed for any very great length of time. It had opened its doors, from the very commencement ho believed, to every description of cattle, shorthorns, Doyens, cross breeds, in fact whatever sort exhibitors chose to send. Next in importance was the Birmingham society, certainly the ' most fitting and proper site for the object, being situate in the centre of England, and in the midst of an extensive manufacturing district, which, as a natural consequence, was densely populated. Since the establishment of that society, one had been founded in Darlington, and had now been in existence six years. (Loud cheers.) It had gone on progessing ' and he hoped it would continue to go on progressing. (Renewed cheers.)

He was written to quite unexpectedly when in Len.. don, about a fat cattle show to be established in Durham, so naexpeetodiy that he had never heard of any likelihood of ',nether society being established. Hp was asked to be come connected with it. He said he had his dour se to' two societies having a similar object in view and being in the same county, succeeding, and ho remembered also that ho belonged to this society and was its patron. (Applause.) He could not give his sanction to a society which might enter into a spirit of rivalry with the one of which he was already a member. (Loud applause.) At the same time most desirable if some amalgamation could be effected, but he was sure that the people of Darlington would never agree to such aniggamation—(laughter and applause) — although hedid not say so. He offered thatsuggestion as a remedy. As soon as he heard of what took place at Dar lington, he said he had given nothing more than his advice as a remedy for the evil, and as his advice was not taken he should not say one word more upon the subject, except that he meant to adhere to this society. (Cheers.) He did not think fat cattle shows should be multiplied in the same pro portion as agricultural shows. However that and other things which (concerned the public must be left to the pub lic themselves, who should endeavour to avoid any spirit of rivalry springing up amongst them, for it would in the end drive one or the other to the wall. His Grace againthanked them for drinking. his health, and resumed his seat, when the loud cheers by which he was greeted on rising were again raised. Mr. OUTHWAITE, Of BakleSSC, proposed the " Successful Eibibitors." Mr. GM responded, and concluded a humorous speech by giving the " 'Unsuccessful Exhibitors," which was re sponded to by Mr. STOWELL, of Favordale, who convulsed the company with laughter by the rich humor which ran through his speech. The CHAIRMAN next gave "The Judges.". Mr. C RRAII returned thanks, and in doing so characterised the show Of gook as very good, there being nothing but good animals exhibited, The CHAIRMA.N then propeeed the health of the noble man who had filled the vice-chair, and who had travelled all the way from Sussex in order tp be present on this occa sion. Without trenching on politics, hie (the chairman) thought -he might refer to Lord H. Vane having acted as sponsor to the speaker of the House of Commons, and gen tlemen would be aware that - that office was only entrusted to a member of long tried ability, integrity, and standing in the house. (Cheers.) The Noble VICE-CHAIRMAN was received with enthu siastic plaudits. After thanking them for the compliment they had paid him, he said ho was happy to see Mr,Howard in the position he then occupied, particularly as there had un fortunately been a rival to this excellent society. (Cheers.) It was owing to this circumstance that he (Lord Harry)) was anxious to be present on this occasion, because he knew the interest that Darlington felt in the continuance of its annual shows, and because he knew they were all deeply indebted to Mr. Mewburn, and the townsmen of Darling-- ton generally, for the suceem of those shows. (Loud ap plause.) It had now existed some years. He had not always had the advantage of being present on its anniversary occasions, but this year he certainly was anxious to be here, because it seemed to him that it was ungenerous, after a society was established and had reached so high a position, for any gentleman, however high he might stand in an agri culturist's estimation—and he was far from depreciating or . saying one word derogatory to the character of Mr. Spear man as an agriculturist—but still it appeared to him as hardly wise in . him to attempt to establish in the same county a rival to this society, which was certainly the third in the kingdom, Smithfield and Birmingham only taking precedence. (Cheers.) It was a happy , inspirationwhich had suggested Darlington as the place of meeting for this society, inasmuch as it was the centre of a large agricultural district comprised in Yorkshire and Durham, and had the advantage of transport from the Lothians, the south of Scotland, and Northumberland, which has ceased to have an agricultural society of its own. It was left to Mr. Spearman to adopt a sort of principle of jealousy of one town towards another, which we must know will be attended with a painful effect. (Hear, hear.) In Italy theinhabitants of one town called their neighbours in another foreigners. It was left to Mr. Spearman to establish that system in this county, in order that Durham might be considered as a rival to Dar lington. (Hear.) It sounded to him somewhat strange, re gretting as he did any spirit of rivalry should exist between the two places. He could not but say that such endeavours should be discouraged, and although Durham may be en titled in many respects to a society if it pleases to establish one—and no one would dispute that a society may be esta blished providing the funds are forthcoming—yet it is quite evident that it must injure the existing society, but it was doubtful whether it will maintain itself . : (Cheers.) A very large sum of money was contributed by the town of Dar lington towards the support of the present society, and therefore it ought very largely to partake in its benefits. He was happy to learn the exhibition was superior to its predecessors, that there were no symptoms of falling off, that although one or two competitors had not, as usual, at tended the show, it was still as good as ever. The society had progressed beyond their anticipations, and he trusted it would still continue to do so. He felt as much interest in its welfare as they did—(applause)—he contributed his sup port towards it, and he should continue to do so,—and he had no doubt the spirit evinced by the North Durham people would incite persons interested in this society to con tribute much more liberally than hitherto. (Loud cheers.) He concluded by giving the next toast, " The Agri culture, Manufactures, and Commerce, and the prosperity of the town of Darlington" and then resumed his seat overwhelmed by loud plaudits. HENRY PEASE, Esq., M.P., on rising to respond to the toast, was the cause of a fresh outburst of hearty applause. At that late hour, he said, it would be very unbecoming to begin to tell them how cattle should be fig, what amount of turnips they should have each day, and so forth, neither did he suppose his audience would be at all edified by his informing them how many revolutions of his spindles were required to convert a piece of wool into cloth. The most interesting question which could come before them on that occasion was whether fat cattle shows answered the purpose for which they were intended. If we judged from the progress of our owe shows they did give satisfaction, and he thought they did furnish the best beef. (Applause.) If they reverted for a moment to the Birmingham show, which he had the pleasure of visit ing last week, they would find there were 130 entries of cattle, 90 of pigs. 63 of sheep, a very large number of poultry, and about 200 of pigeons. It was a magnificent show ; to see the pretty sights that were to be seen would, as the saying went, have made one's mouth water. Even the pigs were gems. (A laugh.) They were truly so, for they were so fat that they were obliged to have pillows under their noses. (Loud laughter.) Then the Smithfield show, which he had the pleasure of visiting yesterday, it was excellent. He would however leave this subject, merely remarking that if he, in making a piece of cloth for a lady's gown ,did it to his own mind he should say it was per fect, and so when breeders and feeders produced a good animal they might say it was perfect, no matter what other people thought. What did all this competition result in ? `Why, first in the improvement of agriculture, for they did not expect to get their animals well fed unless they cultivated their land—(hear)—and they did not expect to get their land well cultivated unless it was well drained, and if it was well drained it would be well managed, and so they might go on. (Cheers.) How interesting it was to see that agricultural science was endeavouring to keep pace with mechanical science ? (Applause.) It had been said that farmers were asleep—he must say he could not see that they were. The amount of capital invested in agri cultural implements alone was almost incredible. In a very few houses there was not less than two millions. He should like to know how large the benefits which even these two millions were conferring on the country at large. This large amount circulating about the country was the life and spirit of a griculture. (Applause.) Mr. Pease then called their attention to the good results which would follow from the planting of hedge rows and other kinds of shelter to high lands, and hoped they would examine the ques tion and judge for themselves whether it was a good sug gestion or not. Ile also noticed the present agitation respecting the manuring of grass land with bones, and con cluded by alluding to the paper read by Mr. Hawdon to the farmers' association at Staindrop, which, he said, was deeply interesting to all who had the interests of agriculture at heart. (Loud cheers.) JOSEPH DODDS, Esq., proposed, in a short but highly eulogistiospeech, " The Stewards, Committee of Manage ment, and the Honorary Secretary." Mr. HODGSON responded, and in making mention of the trial the society had had to pass through, said that the ap peal of the officers for additional subscriptions was nobly responded to, no less a sum than £l3O being subscribed. WHYTE MELVILLE, Esq., then gave " The Lady Pa tronesses of the Poultry Show, and the Ladies," a toast which the noble vice-chairman r. sponded to in apt terms. The toast list was now completed, and the company se parated about nine o'clock, highly delighted with the happy and triumphant termination of this the sixth annual meeting.

', 47, in the parish of Loughton, for the purpose of further ,K a s proceeding with the investigation touching the death of the female and child whose lifeless bodies were found 12 a pond in the Forest, about a mile ! distant from the Wake Arms, about three weeks since. THE 311 STERIOUS TRAGEDY IN _EPPING FOREST. The dreadful affair continues enveloped in the greatest mystery, and the utmost excitement pre vails throughout not only the neighbourhoods of Waltham and Epping, but the whole of the sur rounding district, and this has been enhanced through a suspicion gaining ground that the shock ing occurrence is not simply one of murder and suicide, but the act of a third person. Mr. Superintendent Clark, of the county consta bulary, together with Mr. Inspector Thompson and Sergeant Brenchly, of the K division of police, who have been most actively engaged endeavouring to glean some clue to the identification of the deceased and the circumstances under which they came by their deaths, attended the investigation. The Coroner, upon interrogating the officers a to whether any identification had taken place, was informed that although the bodies had remained exposed at the Waltham Cemetery, no person had as yet come forward to identify the deceased. Mr. Inspector Thompson handed in a description of the deceased, which had been sent round to the various police stations. The notice described the woman as stout•built, with dark hair, and about 25 years of age, while the child, a male, was about four months old. The latter was neatly and re spectably clad, while the woman's attire betokened that of a person in a humble station of life. Owing to the painful mystery hanging over the matter, it was thought necessary to have the pond emptied in which the bodies were found, in order to see if any bludgeon had been thrown in, or if there were any stump* at the .bottom that could account for certain severe injuries about the female's head. This operation was commenced on Saturday, and was proceeding with to-day, a large body of men being enpa[zed at the work, in the hope that the pond might have been emptied in time for the Court to receive evidence in the matter, as to any discovery that might be made ; but the pond is a large and deep one, covering about a quarter of an acre, and between seven or eight feet deep in some parts, so that it will take some time to draw and pump the water off. The clearing of the pond and an examination of the bottom is rendered essen tially necessary, owing to the turn the medical evidence has taken, which distinctly proves that the child met his death by violence prior to immersion. The principal witness examined was Mr, Joseph Clegg, surgeon, of Epping, who deposed as to the result of the post-mortem examination he had made of both deceased, and stated that he had found marks of blows on the person of each. As regarded the child, his opinion was that its death was attribu table to a blow on the head. The woman had died from suffocation in the water, but there was a blow on the forehead which he could not say had been inflicted before or after immersion. The inquiry was again adjourned. - THE HUSBAND OF MANY TYIT'ES. Mr. Leonard, an inspector of the City Police, and Green, one of his detective officers, attended before Mr. Beadon, at the Marlborough-street Police Court, yesterday, upon a charge of polygamy against - Gloucester Gale, whom they apprehended on Sun day, at a place called Marble Hall, one of the pri soner's residences, Egham. The prisoner, who gives his age 35, but looks older, is a slight-built man, has a somewhat sinister cast of countenance, and wears large whiskers and small moustache, which are of a light, or sandy colour. He had one arm in a sling, and walked with a stick, or rather limped, which he said arose from a recent attack of paralysis. A brief outline of this case may not, from the nature of it, prove uninteresting. It appeared.that he married, ten years ago, in the name of Gale,a Miss Gee, of Turnham-green, and this lady, so far as can be ascertained, appears to have been his first wife. She always understood him to be a travel ler, and therefore has never been surprised at the lengthened period., of his absence, and states that she certainly never lad the most remote suspicion of his marrying any one else. The second marriage was solemnised at Islington church, and then he married, in the name of George Gordon, a Miss Celia Mary Wye, of Kensington , a young lady of considerable property ; and in this instance, it as said,.he prevailed upon her to settle,, in the event of survivorship, an that property upon himself, with the exception of a legacy to a relative of the lady as testatrix. This marriage was in November of last year. The third marriage is shown to be on the 3d of January of the present year, at Old Trinity Church, Sloane-street, Chelsea, in the name of George Thomas. The deceived one in this case was Miss Lydia Murch. The fourth marriage was to Miss Sarah Drewitt, on the 3d of May last, at St. George's, Hanover square. The fifth marriage was on the 13th of July, t Miss Martha Gover, at All Souls' Church, Lang ham-place ; and the sixth (it is hoped the last, and the only other case, though the officers say there is great reason to believe that those mentioned are not all) took place on the lith of August (the en suing month it will be observed), in the name of Edward Gordon, to Miss Fanny Farrell, or Tarrell. The prisoner Was in the habit of representing to those he so infamously duped and imposed upon that he was the mate of a ship which traded to Malta, Oporto, and other foreign seaports, and that this sometimes obliged him necessarily to be away a long time. He left one of his wives on a late oc casion, and said he should be away a few days, having brought over from a foreign country a rare animal, in a wild state, which no other person could touch or handlebut himself, and that he was going with it to the Queen, intending to make her Ma jesty a present of the same—the only specimen in this country. Miss Wye always thought him tobe a collector for a large mercantile house, and was in no way surprised at his frequent absence. He appears, however, to have been more constant in his visits to this lady than to the others—it has been stated above that this was the moneyed lady. The morning of the marriage with Miss Tarrell or Farrell, he sent her into Devonshire to hire a house, and furnish it, telling her he would directly join her there. She never saw him afterwards. 'From October last, when Mr. Coleman, clerk to the Registrar of Merchant Seamen, waited upon the late Lord Mayor, in consequence of numerous ap plications after this supposed mate of a , ship, and made known the case so far as suspicion rested, the officers have been indefatigable in their search after this fellow, frequently being close upon him in country and in town, but never close enough until their fortunate capture of him on Sunday, at Eg ham. Mr. Bcadon inquired where the second marriage took place ? Inspector Leonard said in Islington, but two of the subsequent marriages having taken place within the jurisdiction of this Court, he had brought the case before his worship, and because it would be more convenient to go into those cases first, the witnesses being present to prove them. Mr. Beadon said the law was that the hearing should be either in the district where the second marriage occurred, or in that of the place where the apprehension took place, and therefore he must refer it to either Clerkenwell or Southwark. The further examination was accordingly referred to Clerkenwell Police-court, and the officers con veyed the prisoner thither, accompanied by the witnesses. Two of the wives were young ladies of considerable personal attractions.
