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 restrainin g Alfred Hooper Nevill, and his agents, under a penalty of £5 ,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.

The meeting was then declared special to consider the agreement with the Charing-cross Railway Company, such 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 for completion of the arrangement, subject to for feiture to this company in case of failure. A resolution empowering the directors to eh the seal of the company to the deed of arrangement was proposed and carried. VEMENT. THE NIH. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. you kindly insert the enclosed in your next paper ? Yours respectfully, 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 reduction 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 tho 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 estaUlkhnients 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 dare themselves slaves by agreeing to the follow ing declaration 'No. . 9.. Trollopo.and—Sois. • • " I declare. lam not now, nor will I during the conti nuance of my engagement with you become, a member of or 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. " Dated of 18 . "' Londcn, 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 rob us of those benefits which our thrift has provided for sickness and old ago. 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 arc 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 Coins 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 'ourselves ? " Our cause is your cause; our cause is the cause of truth—our request is founded on justice. " Rally round us, then, and by resisting the temp tatiors of our employers' agents enable us to gain this boon both for ourselves and you. " Signed on behalf of the United Building Trades. " It. W. GRAY, Mason. " HY. NOBLE, Bricklayer. "W. M'NAMARA, Plasterer. " THOS. G. FACEY, Painter. " PETER CRESHAM, Labourer. " GEORGE POTTER, Secretary." (From 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 one poin t 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 multittideits are now out on strike can bo 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 determine this 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 his 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 ess would the part-idle builders be the oppr.orshus of it. T other labourers, if they could carry t heir 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 industry have hours of labour in one great branch of 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 Le 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 increased 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 of the world. But, unlike of this added costliness as noagtghroeereoXwet°ihtPliline:th,lelaesya restsp gain, eak as wealth ! Let any poor the agricultural lab ourer rather have 12s. a m an say what he think s on this question. week when wheat is 80 s. a q uarter, and other provisions are dear in proportion , o r 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 ca n feed his children better, and yet have money over for clothes, rent, and fuel. 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 mare people must go without. People 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 R e ply 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 sinki n g into poverty, and " the nation" with them. So much for the increase of "value." We trust the men on strike will not be misled by such' gross error. It appears, however, that there is yet a further delusion in the minds, 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 o-i 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 in :4. 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. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. WESTERN CIRCUIT.—BRISTOL, August 17. (Before Mr. Baron Bramwell.) ARREST OF A WITNESS. Mr. Collier made au application on behalf of W. Neck Pecking, who was a witness in one of the special jury eases, but who had been arrested on a warrant whilst waiting upon his subpwna to give evidence under a warrant. His lordship inquired what the arrest was for, and it appeared from the statement of the officer and its production that the warrant was for non payment of certain Queen's taxes, and directed the Tarty 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 Ero before a judge at chambers, where the Crown might appear. Mr. Collier submitted that that course would be very inconvenient, as the witness would probably be required to-morrow; and ultimately the learned judge ordered the discharge. GALLOIS V. CORNIER: SINGULAR CASE. Mr. Cole appeared for the plaintiff, who said she was a young Frenchwoman, named Adele Gallois. The declaration 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 same 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. Gallo is a letter in French, of which the following is a translation : " My dear Adele,—Our ideas on life in common are 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 ma your regrets of the past, I in my turn become miser able—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 np 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 but 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 turning 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 and live with him, which she did, and remained with him till May, when they separated after " a scene," in which ho 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 hg said lie 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 sho 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 statement in the declaration was. that the parties agreed to li ve a p ar t, w hi c h was , i n 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 imm ora l ac t. A ccor di ng t o th e 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. Sluff! _ . Mr. Cole asked whether his 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 TRAGICAL 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 pf frightful lacerations, produced, it was believed, b instruments used by Mr. Carnell, in an attempt to procure abortion. On the fact of her death being communicated to her 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 l an dl or d, 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 ease 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. Walley said it would be remembered that small box containing letters had been placed in his hands at their last sitting. There were only three in any way herring 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 pleased to hear that you were happy within yourself, and I hope Ton 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. lie 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 shedied of hemorrhage 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 murder. 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 AUGUST. DUMBARTONSHIRE.—The grouse are strong cm the wing and very wild. The breeding season has been good in this country and the West Highlands generally. Sir James Colquhoun and his brother, Mr. William Colquhoun, bagged 58 brace on the 12th. PERTHSIIIRE.—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 Auchingarrick, Mr James Bayne, of Edinburgh, killed 25 brace. The birds are strong on the wing and in splendid condition. The 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 Auchnafre2 as at present. FIFESHIRE.—Mr. John Balfour, of Balbirnie, and party passed over the grounds at the Bishop 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 birds 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 aro 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.

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 Stisff 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. Tho pay of the men will not, however, bo so high as in the old corps, the first class orderlies of which r e c ei v e as much as 2s. per day, exclusive of rations, a rate of pay which has given rise to some dissatisfaction is 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 Hosrital Corps the rate of pay will be more assimilated, p rivates o re ceiving ls. per day clear.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—ThOrie 8 Food for Cattle is now beginning to seriously attract the attefitimi of the farmer, breeder, and feeder of stock. ' Two years 'of unremitting care and attention have enabled its inventor to take high Freund as a benefactor to these interests ; and notwithstand ing the many drawbacks, the malevolent shafts hurled against it and its probable utility, the food, from its admitted value, will become a necessity to the agricultural interest. Experience has proved, first, that it effects a considerable saving in the consumption of provender; secondly, _ to et t h .it produces health and vigour in all animals subjectede itsan influence : and lastly, increases in a remarkable d early - development of fat. Mr. Thorley, erigl,nacati,neg, this singularly efficacious food, aimed at e to supersede, to a certain extent, the tedious and expensive beasts. In this mode then prevailing of fattening stall-fed he happily succeeded ; and successprompted a very natur a l so as to make it desire to improve upon the invention,ap plicable to every description of domestic animal. The Eng lish farmer was slow to encourage its use, fancyingand m b anif e po efi s ted sese an ed unwillingness to rely t pon its efficacy, 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 certai n sav i ng 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 of food i it is, however, much questioned whether wheat 3 a nourishing and proper food for the working horse, certainlY it is not f or cows or pigs. Mr. Thorley's Food, besides the health possessing the advantage of greatly invig° ; t rai g s, is a tonic and increasing the physical power of all ed ani with their other and gentle stimulant, and when mix od consequence assists their digesti d a ou P bted wer V et great , since it isanti a hat e r th e s f food is lost, conse quent contained in theire ord i nary pecatrtiOincuOlfartlhyebedingOeSfiriVeiael organs upon it w th m e i condition horses which have in restoring to good working a m ls i Vbe red f? e found d ci fec to ti b ve e constitution.

Such has been its marked success, that at all our great cattle shows, Royalty, noblemen, and others who have fed their cattle on Thorley's Food, have invariably carried off the principa. prizes, whilst cards of commendatie,n have been awarded. Th e patronage of Royalty, of 017 r principal nobility, the clergy, and of our leading agriculturists, must prove A great incitement to this gent' Leman to pursue his onward course ; and he may confie , m tly rely, in producing so highly-favoured a compir an d, on a continuation of such high and diAtinguisheci ' patronage.:
