The fearful dangers to invalids from spurious Imitations of DU BARRY's invaluable HEALTH-RESTORING REVA LENTA ARABICA FOOD led to an investigation, and, upon application in 1854 for protection, the High Court of Chancery granted an injunction restraining Alfred Hooper Nevill, and his agents, under a penalty of £6,000, from selling any article resembling or being a colourable imitation of Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica, of which we are the sole pro prietors. Now, therefore, this is to give notice that the above reward will be paid, upon conviction, to anyone giving infor mation of any breach of the injunction.

Information was on Monday received at Wool wich announcing the intention- of his Royal High ness the Duke of Cambridge to inspect a portion of the Artillery Corps on Wednesday, and to witness a course of experimental target firing with the battery guns. Th e R oya l stan d ar d was ac cordingly hoisted on the flagstaff - in O - ArkEal at 12 o'clock yesterday, and the usual arrangements for the reception of the Commander-in-Chief were made throughout the garrison. Three batteries belonging to the 4th field brigade, selected for the experiments (in which some newly invented shells were to have been brought forward), were drilled on Tuesday on Woolwich-common for the occasion, under the inspection of Major-General Sir Richard Dacres, K.C.8., commanding the garrison, and were yesterday drawn up on parade at 11 a.m. The troops were subsequently marched down to the practising range in the Plumstead-marsh, where they re mained till 1 o'clock, when a telegram from the Horse Guards announced that his Royal Highness's visit was deferred to some future day, in conse quence, it was stated, of the heavy fog, which it was presumed would preclude the possibility of witnessing the experiments with due effect. Each battery was mounted with the full complement of 18 and 24-pounder guns. The General and Staff, in full uniform, awaited the arrival of the Duke in front of the artillery barracks, and the order was given to fire a Royal salute from the saluting bat tery at a given signal. On the receipt of the mes sage from the Horse Guards the orders were imme diately countermanded, and the troops returned to barracks. Active preparations have been in pro gress for some days past in the Rpyal Marine bar racks and the dockyard, Woolwich, in anticipation of an official inspection by the Lords of the Admi ralty. It was yesterday announced that their lordships have decided on being at Woolwich at 11 a.m. this morning.

Since the publication of the Royal warrant au thorizing the formation of a new branch of the service, to be called the Army Hospital Corps, and directing the present Medical Staff Corps to be disbanded, the volunteers from the depots and regiments of the Line have been so numerous as to lead to the expectation that by the Ist of September, the day on which the corps is to be organized, the whole number of non-commissioned officers and men will have been obtained. The new corps is to consist of exactly 1,000 non-commissioned officers and men, or considerably more than double the number of the Medical Staff Corps. The pay of the men will not, however, be so hi g h as in the old corps, the first class orderlies of which receive as much as 2s. per day, exclusive of rations, a rate of pay which has given rise to some dissatisfaction in the other branches of the service. The non-com missioned officers, most of whom are in receipt . of pensions for service in other corps, also receive a higher scale of pay than their brethren of the Line. In the new Army Hospital Corps the rate of pay will be more assimilated, privates re ceiving Is. per day clear.

[ADVERTISEMENTI—ThorIey's Food for Cattle is now beginning to seriously attract the attention of the farmer, breeder, and feeder of stock. Two years of unremitting care and attention have enabled its inventor to take high ground as a benefactor to these interests ; and notwithstand ine• the many drawbacks, the male-vol.-4 .a.....e... .t.T-Leu value, will become a necessity to the agricultural interest. against it and it. i s....)—bzu umity, tne Mod, from its admitted Experience has proved ? first, that it effects a considerable saving in the consumption of provender ; secondly, that it produces health and vigour in all animals subjected to its influence : and lastly, increases in a remarkable degree an early development of fat. Mr. Thorley, originating this singularly efficacious food, aimed at a compound calculated to supersede, to a certain extent, the tedious and expensive mode then prevailing of fattening stall-fed beasts. In this he happily succeeded ; and success prompted a very natural desire to improve upon the invention, so as to make it ap plicable to every description of domestic an i ma l . The Eng lish farmer was slow to enco urage it s use , an d manifested an unwillingness to rely upon its efficacy, fancying he posse sse d in the produce of his farm, ample materials whereby to feed and fatten his cattle at a cheaper rate thanby the employment or addition of artificial food. The tests to which this food has been subjected have proved its perfect admissibility as a cheap addition to the natural produce of the farm ; inasmuch as in all cases a subtraction of one-third may be safely submitted to in the usual food of animals ; and that the produce will be realised, and rendered marketable in two-thirds of the time usually consumed in developing fat ; it, therefore, becomes apparent that a certain saving is effected by a fair application of Thorley's Compounded Food. It is believed that the present unprecedented low price of wheat has induced its very gene ral use, in preference to any other of the usual articles B ofl food; it is, however, much questioned whether wheat is nourishing and proper food for the working horse, e 1 " it is not for cows or pigs.

SM,-Will y - oil kindly insert the enclosed in your next paper ? Yours respc ctfully, on behalf of the United Trades, GEORGE POTTER, Sec. Paviours' Arms, Johnson-street, Westminster, Aug. 17. "-TO THE BUILDING TRADES OF THE UNITED KINGDOM. "Fellow Workmen,—The public press and our communications with your different societies have made you acquainted with the nature of our de mand for a reaction of the working day to nine hours, agitated by us in a calm, peaceful, and legal manner during 20 months. By the same means you have also been informed that having failed to induce our employers to grant us an interview or give the slightest consideration to our appeal, and having exhausted every moral probability of gain ing our desires, we had no other alternative left than the workman's last resource. Accordingly, the men in the Messrs. Trollope's employ deter mined to cease:working until the nine hours should be conceded them as a day's work. You are aware that the employers of London immediately deter mined on closing the whole of their establishments and casting their men in idleness on the streets, with a determination of keeping them there in idleness and misery unless they consent to give up the benefits of their benevolent societies, and de clare themselves slaves by agreeing to the follow ing declaration : " 'No. . " G. Trollope and Sons. " I declare lam not now, nor will I during the conti nuance. of m.y engagement with you becom6,* Mettle fir' support any society which, directly or indirectly, interferes with the arrangements of this or any other establishment, or the hours or terms of labour, and that I recognise the right of employees and employed individually to make any trade engagements on which they may choose to agree . " Date m d of 18 . "' London, August, 1859.' " The stump counter of this is left in the book, with the name of the applicant attached. To make such an agreement would be to give up our free dom, and to IA us of those benefits which our thrift has provided for sickness and old age. This we are determined not to do, and we call upon you to as sist us in opposing the infliction of this slavery which the employers are seeking to impose on us. " The employers are sending their agents among you for the purpose of inducing you to come to Lon don to supply our places. Recollect that it is they. who have forced us out of work, who have endea voured, by robbing us of the means of living, to rob us through our necessities of our liberty as men. Will you play the parts of Cains and Esaus ? Can you not see that if you enable them by the assist ance of yOur labour to crush us you will be rivet ting their fetters more closely on yourselves ? "Our cause is your cause; our cause is the cause of truth—our request is founded on justice. "Rally round us, then, and byresisting the temp tations of our employers' agents ~ .Inable us to gain this boon both for ourselves and you. " Signed on behalf of the United Building Trades. "R. W. GRAY, Mason. " HY. NOBLE, Bricklayer. "w. 'ITIVAmARA, Plasterer. " THOS, G. FACEY, Painter. " PETER CRESIIIII, Labourer. " GEORGE POTTER, Secretary." (Ftom the Daily News.) The Reply put forth by the United Building Trades Conference to the Address of the Master Builders must have been read with deep and melan choly interest by a large number of persons. It is a document which supplies ample material for com ment; but onepoint of this strange manifesto stands out so conspicuously as to throw all the rest into the shade. We cannot tell whether the authors are aware of this. We know not whether they are sensible that they have committed their cause to two or three sentences of this declaration, so that by the accuracy of these few lines of their reply it must stand or fall. If they can be made to see what a mistake they have fallen into they must do one of two things—admit their error and go to work again, or make themselves subject to the re proach of continuing the Strike in defiance of rea son and justice, and therefore under the imputation of bad feelings. We own ourselves fairly puzzled as to whether the leaders of such a multitude as are now out on strike can be so utterly ignorant of what it is most important for them to know, as would appear by the concluding paragraph of the Reply to the Masters, or whether they are trying to practise on the ignorance of their followers. It is not necessary for us to determinethis point. But it is necessary for us, as for all sincere friends of the working classes, to expose the ignorance, real or pretended, which brings such fearful conse quences after it. The masters believed they were saying something " trite" when they said, "As for the Nine Hours Movement, it is a mere device for compelling other trades to toil more that the builders may labour less—for raising the rent of the poor man's cottage and reducing his wages, by enabling the bricklayer to abstract from the common labour-fund more than s share." The authors of the Reply have disin genuously stopped at the word " wages," omitting the rest of the sentence, and going on to answer the first part in a different sense from that which we here see that it bears. The meaning is plain enough. If the men who build the cottage were to work only nine hours in ten, of course a tenth man, or a tenth day, must be added to every nine to do the former amount of work. This is the express pur pose of the strike—or one of the several express purposes avowed by Mr. G. Potter. The tenth man's or day's wages are a new cost added to the expense of building a house; the occupant must pay a higher rent in consequence ; and he must toil the harder to earn the means of paying it. Thus would the part-idle builders be the oppressors of other labourers, if they could carry their point ; and thus do they make it the duty of every just person in society to oppose their encroachment for the sake of other classes of working men. And how do the spokesmen of the strike answer this plain statement of the masters ? They say (stopping short at the words quoted) : " Wherever the hours of labour in one great branch of industry have been reduced, a corresponding reduction has followed in others; and a rise in the wages of the building trade will as surely be followed by in creased value and increased wages in other trades as a rise in the price of bread leads to a correspond ing increase in the price of t .e other necessaries of life. Thus, the common value of all things would become increased, and the wealth of the nation greater." Such is the paragraph which professes to deal with " fallacy" on the part of the masters, but which is itself so charged with confusion and mistake as to require to be set up as a warning to all who are committing their fortunes to this des perate strike. In the first place, the reduction of the hours of labour, in factories and elsewhere, is rendered prac ticable only by the same amount of work being done in the shorter time, or by the wages being reduced in proportion to the shortening of the time. In fac tories, where the people used to work far too long, they became languid and exhausted ; and when offered an earlier dismissal they found they could do as much work in eleven hours as in twelve ; and they did it. The other argument in favour of the shorter hours was, that smaller wages went further, from the strength, and spirit, and time of the worker being greater at the close of' the day. It was on these grounds that shorter hours were found to be practicable and good, and that the good spread from one employment to another. But it never was, and never can be, possible for one trade after another to employ workmen for a shorter time at the same wages, and without i ncrease d briskness to make up for the time remitted. If we could for a moment suppose such an arrangement made, we should see how the plan would lead to the ruin of the country, and of every trade in it. We have seen how the rent of the workman's cottage would be raised—and the cost of the noble man's mansion would be increased in proportion-- by the reduction of the hours of labour, or (what the Reply very properly treats as the same thing) the raising of the builders' wages. If the process spread through other employments, as the Reply suggests, everything produced by them would be come dearer. There Mr. Potter and his comrades agree with the rest of the world. But, unlike other people, they speak of this added costliness as a t good thin, as a gain, as wealth ! L e t any poor man say what he thinks on this question. Had o the agricultural labourer rather have 12s. a week when wheat is 80s. a quarter, and other provisions are dear in proportion, or 10s. with wheat at 40s. ? In the one case, his entire earnings must go in food for his family, who are otherwise destitute ; whereas in the other case he can feed his children better, and yet have money over for clothes, rent, and LI. Ask the bricklayer whether he had rather work ten hours a-day for 30s. a-week, and pay as usual for everything he buys and uses, or have one-tenth more pay or less work, and pay higher to the same amount all round for his rent, his clothes, his fuel, his food, his furniture, and whatevever he needs. In the former case he may live comfortably ; in the latter, he must go to ruin. Yet Mr. Potter and his comrades actually speak of this increased dearness as a good thing —an an in crease of what they call "value"—as an increase of wealth in the country ! It is when the wealth of the country is small that people have to pay high ; not when. it is great. When labour is dear, so that the farmers of a country cannot produce all the corn and beef that they would if labour were cheap, there is less wealth of bread and beef in the country ; the price is higher, and more people must go without. P eop l e have been in the habit of thinking that the wealth lay in the other direc tion ; that the moderate cost of labour, and the plentiful production of food— the existence of a great wealth of food in the country—was a good thing for everybody, and especially for the labourer. We suspect Mr. Potter and his comrades have been misled by the word " value "—strange as it seems that they should be in so plain a case. " Value" is one thing when it means convenience, and another when it means the money price of a thing. Air and water are valuable to everybody ; but they bear no price, and do not, as the Reply says, make " the wealth of the, nation greater." By value, then, they mean the money-price of things ; but how can the wealth of the nation be increased by dearness of price, any more than the welfare of individuals ? • The high prices are an effect of scarcity, not of wealth—a consequence of poverty; and we need not explain that they are also a cause of poverty to purchasers. If other trades followed the course of the builders in making their labour dearer,•builders and all would presently be sinking into poverty, and " the nation" with them. So much for the increase .of value:" We trust the nten on strike will not be misled by such gross j error. It appears, however, that there is yet a further delusion in the Painds, or snare in the statement of the authors of the Reply. They seem to suppose that there is some unlimited source of wages in the country from which any quantity can be got, as men could get water from the sea. Let their fol lowers consider for a moment, and they will see that this is not true, and never can be true. The masters have a certain amount of capital. A large proportion of it is invested in shops, machinery, and the material of their works ; and the rest is em- ployed in paying for labour. If the employer can buy with it sufficient labour to build what will yield him a profit, besides replacing all expenses, he can live on that profit, and go ou to new con tracts ; but if the labour is dear, so as to yield him no profit to live upon, he cannot go on building more. So far is the masters' capital from being a fund that will answer any calls upon it ! The Reply says that the capitalist who can employ 1,000 men is as powerful as those 1,000 men, who must therefore combine against him. Here is the same misuse of the word " power." :The capi talist has the power of paying 1,000 men if they chooso to work for him ; that is all. If they do not choose it he will probably obtain others, with reluctance and at great inconvenience, from some other neighbourhood. The end of such " power," " wealth," and " value" is, that capital is wanted, employment lessened, commodities are made dearer, and wages permanently reduced by the introduction of new competitors into the labour market. Such is the dreary prospect of the build ing trades, while the leaders of the strike are talk ing about the dearness of houses, clothes, and food, being a way to wealth instead of poverty. Their followers had better:see whether this is what they mean their spokesmen to say on their behalf. Won by a length. The Chesterfield Handicap of 10 soya each, with 50 added, for all ages.

A report, of which the following are the principal features, was read and adopted : " The receipts and expenditure on account of income during the past six months present the usual average result ; the general receipts for that period being £3,325 19s. 7d., and the payments £2,225 75. 11d. ; leaving a surplus on the half-year of £l,lOO lls. Bd. The total receipts for the year ending 31st July, 1859, amount to £6,460 18s. 6d. ; and the out goings during the same period to £5,089 15s. 3d. ; leaving a profit upon the year of £1,371 3s. 3d. Of this amount the sum of £1,140 has been applied in reduction of the mortgage and bond debt of the company, thereby reducing the same to £13,500. The miscellaneous outstanding claims, including Mr. Wood's balance as solicitor, amount to £1,08 2 18s. ld. The directors congratulate the proprietors upon the passing of the act for making a railway from the London-bridge station to Charing-cross over their bridge. The pendency in Parliament of that bill induced your directors to enter into an ar rangement with Messrs. Tillett for the termination of proceedings which those gentlemen had instituted in Chancery against the company, to enforce the performance by the latter of their contract to pur chase the line of property intended to form the ap proach from the York-road—the arrangement being that the agreement with Messrs. Tillett should be cancelled, on payment by the company of £415, in full of all demands." The meeting was then declared special to consider the agreement with the Charing-cross Railway Company, sad' agreeMent having for its object the, ultimate transfer to the railway company of the property of the bridge company, on terms which, when wholly carried out, will secure to the latter company the maintenance of the guaranteed stock for ten years, and the payment of the additional sum of £lOO,OOO, making a total payment of £125,000. The amount is made up of two sums, viz., £40,000 for the property, exclusive of the tolls, and £85,000 as ascertained compensation for the tolls. A clause in the agreement requires that £20,000 should be deposited as a guarantee fund far completion of the arrangement, subject to for feiture to this company in case of failure. A resolution empowering the directors to affix the seal of the company to the deed of arrangement was proposed and carried, ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. WESTERN CIRCUIT.—BRISTOL, August 17. (Before Mr. Baron Bramwell.) ARREST OF A WITNESS. Mr. Collier made an application on behalf of W. Neck Pecking, who was a witness in one of the special jury cases, but who had been arrested on a warrant whilst waiting upon his subpvena to give evidence under a warrant. His lordship inquired what the arrest was for, and it appeared from the statement of the offier and its production that the warrant was for non payment of certain Queen's taxes, and directed the party to be detained in custody till paid. His lordship said he felt some difficulty in order ing the release, the Crown having no power to ap pear, and he proposed that the matter should go before a judge at chambers, where the Crown might appear. Mr. Collier submitted that that bourse would be very inconvenient, as the witness would probably be required tomorrow; and ultimately the learned judge ordered the discharge. GALLON V. CORNIER: SINGULAR CASE. Mr. Cole appeared for the plaintiff, who said she was a young Frenchwoman ' named Adele Gallois. The declarati on alleged that the defendant had seduced and debauched the plaintiff, and induced her to cohabit with him, and that afterwards it was agreed that they should separate, that she should live a chaste life, and that in consideration thereof he should allow her £5 per week. The breach was that he had not paid the money promised. The defendant pleaded, first, that he did not promise as declared; and secondly, that after the promise and before the payment had become due the plaintiff violated her promise of chastity. Mdlle. Gallois, the plaintiff, had lived in London, and up to the end of last year she earned her bread in an honest and creditable manner. About that time she be name acquainted with Mr. Cornier, the defendant, who was the secretary to a company for making gas out of water, or some scheme of that kind. Whether the defendant would ever illuminate the world with his gas he (Mr. Cole) could not say, but he hoped that he would be made to keep his promise with the young lady. He debauched Mdlle. Gallois as alleged, and induced her to live with him as his mistress ; but he was an old man and she was a young woman, and there was an old saying, " May and December can never agree." That say ing proved true as regarded the plaintiff and de fendant, and after they had been living together some time Mr. Cornier wrote Mdlle. Gallois a letter in French, of which the following is a translation : " My dear Adele,—Our ideas on life in common aro not at all the same; the difference in our age is the cause of it ; you are young, and I am old ; you have done everything in your power, and I acknow ledge it, to conform your ideas to mine; you have now, I may say, perfectly succeeded, but this was not without great sacrifice on your side, which often made you wretched, and when, in consequence of old recollections, you tell me your regrets of the past, I in my turn become miserable—miserable indeed. What follows from all this ?—that we neither of us are happy. Well, my dear friend, in this position of affairs I make an appeal to your common sense—to your reason especially. If you don't feel yourself strong enough to continue the calm and quiet life, which would be happiness for me, which is besides necessary to your health, so much shaken already, tell it me openly, and very openly, because I should then see nothing better for us both than to live each of us on our side, ac cording our tastes. Not that it is my intention by this proposal to give you up to yourself; I wish to remain your friend, and a good friend. It is my intention, so far as you need it, to yive you all that is reasonably necessary. It is my wish, as soon as possible after my affairs are wound up, and when I shall have been able to realise, to place you in an independent position—the position you long for above all. Thus you see, my dear Adele, my wish is to make you happy; as for myself, I willingly sacrifice myself, as I have now no happiness to hope for out in my family, and there I shall go as soon as possible. I kiss you with all my heart.—Your sincere friend, CORNIER." In his letter the old gentleman talked about re taming to the bosom of his family, but so far as the young lady could ascertain, he had taken to his bosom another young woman. He had never paid Miss Gallois any of the promised money, and she having pledged her property to support herself on credit, was at length driven to bring the present action. Mdlle. Adele Gallois was examined through an interpreter. She deposed that she first became ac quainted with the defendant at the end of Dec., 1858. He persuaded her to go ma. live with him, which she did, and remained with him till May, when they separated after " a scene," in which he struck her. He came to the house afterwards, but not to visit her, and kept keys of the rooms. She asked him for money to go to Paris, and he said he would allow her £5 a week and the house she was in, whether in London or Paris. There was no agreement come to about their living. All she wanted was not to see him again and get her money. Mr. Baron Bramwell—l believe you are speak ing very truthfully. The witness, in reply to other questions, said she had had no improper intimacy with Mr. Cornier since. Mr. Cole—That is the case. Mr.:Baron Bramwell said then he must direct the jury to give a verdict for the defendant. The PRICE 4 D . STAMPED, P. statement in the declaration was, that the parties agreed to live apart, which was, in point of law, no consideration at all. It was merely an agree ment that they should not do an immoral act. An agreement not to cohabit was merely an agreement not to do an immoral act. According to the plain tiff's case, if a man promised another that if he did not do an illegal act he would give him £5 a week, he would be bound by the promise. Nonsense ! But the case had not been proved in point of fact. The thing was absurd. £5 a week was £260 a year, and the unhappy Frenchman was to be liable for that for life. Stuff! Mr. Cole asked whether hii lordship would give him leave to move, and called attention to a dictum of Mr. Justice Pattison ; but his lordship said he certainly should not do so. His ruling was on the ground that the case had not been proved. THE TIMOICAL OCCURRENCE AT BALL'S POND. Yesterday afternoon the adjourned investigation as to the death of Miss Elizabeth Freshfield, said to be the daughter of the Mayor of Harwich, was resumed before Mr. Wakley, at the Mildmay Tavern Ball's-pond-road. It will be remembered that the deceased lady occupied apartments with Mr. Clement John Car nell, whose wife she passed for, at'Mr. Webster's, at No. 65, Mildmay-terrace, and that, on the morn ing of Sunday week last, she died, in the presence of two medical gentlemen who had been called in, as was afterwards discovered, from the effects of frightful lacerations, produced, it was believed, by instruments used by Mr. Carnell, in an attempt to -procure abortion. On the fact of her death being communicated to ger supposed husband, the un fortunate man rushed out into the garden, and after groaning and running about in a frantic manner, cut his throat with a razor, and fell dead in the presence of the landlord, who endeavoured to pre vent him from committing the dreadful act. The inquest was opened upon the bodies of both the de ceased persons, and in the case of the male con cluded in a verdict being returned, to the effect that he had committed self-destruction in a moment of frenzy, caused by the death of the other de ceased, in whose case the inquiry was adjourned, for the purpose, if possible, of discovering the in struments which had been the cause of her death. On the re-assembling of the jury, Sergeant Crisp, 3 N, said he had searched every part of the premises, and, assisted by a bricklayer, had also thoroughly searched the drains leading thereto, but no surgical instruments had been found. He had nothing further to communicate. Mr. Freshfield, brother to the deceased lady, in reply to the Coroner, said he had no additional tes timony to offer. Mr. Wakley said it would be remembered that a small box containing letters had been placed in his hands at their last sitting. There were only three in any way berring upon the present case, from which he proposed to read extracts. They were each addressed to Miss Freshfield, and Mr. Fresh field having identified the handwriting as that of the deceased, Mr. Clement John Carnell, the Coroner read them. They were as follows : " June 2, 1859.—1 was much plea s ed to h e a r th a t you were happy within yourself, and I hope you will continue to be so, as your continual worrying yourself tends to prevent your object and your re covery. If you find it necessary take some more of the same medicine." " June 6, 1859.—Darling,—If you find the medi cine makes you sick take less of it, and not on an empty stomach, as it is then more likely to make you sick." On the third letter there was no date, but it contained the following : " I hope, dearest, the note arrived all safely en closing the medicine. Tell me in the next how your last medicine agreed." The Coroner observed that these letters showed that the deceased lady had been taking medicine under the guidance of the male deceased. The ques tion, however, to be decided was, whether the in juries that caused the death of the unfortunate lady were inflicted by herself or by the male deceased. If by the latter he had been guilty of the crime of wilful murder. He could not in this instance pcint to a single part of the evidence that did not show Mr. Camel! to be perfectly rational up to the time of Miss Freshfield's death. There was no possible doubt but that she died of haemorrhage produced by an attempt to procure abortion, and that a wound was thus made two inches in length and of a most frightful character. He feared the jury could come to but one conclusion, and that was that Mr. Carnell had committed this shocking act. That being the case, although the deceased lady was a consenting party, it did not alter the fact in law, that the man alone was liable for the offence, and if Clement John Carnell in this attempted to procure abortion he was . guilty of the crime of wilful Inurder. The jury deliberated for about three-quarters of an hour, and ultimately returned a verdict, " That Elizabeth Freshfield was wilfully murdered by Clement John Carnell." THE TWELFTH OF A UG UST. DUMBARTONSIIIRE.—The grouse are strong on the wing and very wild. The breeding season has been good in this country and the West Highlands generally. Sir James Colquhmin and his brother, Mr. William Colquhoun, bagged 58 brace on the 12th. PERTHSHIRE.—AII the information about the opening of the shooting season which reached. Perth up to Monday afternoon agrees in describ ing the sport since the 12th as excellent, and far beyond anything experienced for a number of years back. The grouse are numerous, strong, and very wild—the young birds being strong on the wing. As yet we have heard nothing definite as to the number of braces falling to particular guns ; but generally the bags have been well filled. The weather on the moors has been everything that the sportsman could desire. In very few quarters has there been any trace of the grouse disease ob servable. At Auchingarri c k, M r James B a y ne , o f Edinburgh, killed 26 br ace . Th e bi r d s are s t rong on the wing and i n sp l en did con diti on. Th e Crief _Herald says :—Reports from all quarter are favourable. The birds are numerous on every moor. We are informed that there never were so many birds seen on the hills of Monzie and Auchnafreo as at present. FIFESHIRE.—Mr. John Balfour, of Balbirnie, and party pass e d over th e groun d s a t th e Bi s hop Hill in quest of grouse, which abound there, and several shots were obtained. WEST OF SCOTLAND.—From what little we have learned we have reason to think that fair average bags have been made. On Glenowther Mr. Allan Gilmour killed 24 brace. On Skelmorlie Mr. John Graham and Mr. John Graham, jun., bagged re spectiVely 23 and 28 brace. The Arngomery party had 10 brace before breakfast. The birrig vary considerably in size on some moors, showing there have been an early and late brood. ABERDEENSHIRE.—There is great promise, from all we can hear, of sportsmen having a very sue• cessful season. DUMFRIESSHIRE.—Our district is well stocked with grouse this year, and partridges are said to be very abundant. MORAYSHIRE.—In Morayshire fair sport is ex pected. The birds are more numerous than for some years past, but in consequence of the dry season, are very strong, and sportsmen may have some difficulty in coming within range. STIRLINGSHIRE.—It rained heavy in the morn ing, whereby many gentlemen were disappointed in their sport. The keener hands were, however, on their legs, and some good execution was done at Touch and other moors, irrespective of the weather's inclemency. ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. DEVONPORT.
