THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE.- It is only a short time since this singularly efficacious article of animal diet first made its appearance ; and already its celebrity Is world-wide. It has been a subject of wonder, and has puzzled many a brain to explain how this has been brought about. Yet when we are acquainted with a few facts concerning the food, our wonder willeease. A. few days since, a gentleman wrote, stating that he had a horse which was a " perfect bag of bones." He tried all kinds of things to get the animal into condition, but in vain, lie then bought some of Thorley's food; and he says the effect was wonderful. The horse rapidly grew fat, mid in the course of a few weeks had gained no less than 12 stones. Again we find at the late agricultural show at Birmingham, Cardiff, &e., the animals which carried off the highest prizes had been partly fed with Thorley's food for cattle. Such facts speak for themselves, and we are forced to the conclusion that its celebrity arises solely from its own in trinsic merits, and the great demand for it can proceed alone from the good opinion and testimony of those who have tried it. All parties interested in horses and cattle will do well to apply to 77, Newgate-street, Loudon, for a pamphlet which is sent post-free.

TEE RECENT EXECUTION. IN NENAGII—EXTEAORDI NARY MEETING. The agitation of the Roman Catholic priests of Nenagh, with the object of proving the two Cormacks innocent of the murder of Mr. Ellis, for which they were executed, has at length eerie te n held. Soon after these unfortunate men wise hanged, the priests publicly proclaimed them from the altar te be martyrs, and ever since systematic efforts have not been wanting to spread this opinion,. and so successful was the effort, that the jurymen who convicted the Cor macks were on more than one occasion subjected to violence, and their property destroyed. The Romish press of Tippe rary, too, took the same side as the clergy, and denounced Mr. Whiteside in violent terms, accusing him with being the legal murderer of the Cormacks, who, they declared, were victimised to appease the land lords. Not content with giving currency to these un founded statements, the Romish clergy hive resolved to petition Parliament for an inquiry into the manner in - which the Cormacks ,were tried, the na.nre of the evidence on which they were convicted, and the method of administer ing the criminal law generally. Accordingly an open alr demonstration, got lip by the Rev. John Kenyon, P.P., of " repeal" notoriety, was held in Nenagh yesterday, the re quisition on whickit was convened running thus TRIAL,OF THE CORMACKS—COUNTY MEETING —REQUISITION.. "We the undersigned inhabitants of the county of Tip perary, impressed with a deep sense of the responsibility ine cured by those who wield the administration of crimitial, law in Ireland, to which the pore, .the- character; the in dustry, and the lives of the people are' consigned, requestir public meeting of this county at Nenagh, on Monday, 30th August, to' pronounce its deliberate opinions on the facts connected with the sad fate of the Cormacks, and to embody those facts in a petition to Parliament, seeking a searching inquiry into the case, and also into the method of adminis tering the criminal:l6w kenerally.": There was an immense gathering Of priests present. The site of the meeting, so far as the making of an impression on those assembled was concerned, was a striking one. A large platform was erected on a broad triangular space, opposite the court-house, and within sight of the "drop" from whence the Cormacks were ushered into eternity. The Nenagh temperance band played occasionally through the day, though not of course after the commencement of the proceedings; but about 11 o'clock it preceded a consi derable crowd outside the town to meet The O'Donoghoe, M.P. The trades' banners of the town were also brought into requisition, and these, having been used in the O'Donoghoe escort, were' fastened to the poles which supported the temporary platform. In Church-street a black flag was to be seen waving over the chimney of a ruined cabin, bearing in white letters the inscription, " Justice." From the tower of the old castle in the vicinity of the platform a large black flag was hoisted. bearing in large 'characters the inscription, " Retribution ;" but after a short time this was taken down, and another black flag run up in in its stead with the inscription In gaol until you rot,' alleging to have-been words used b, Mr. Gore G. Jones, R.M., to the approver Burke whilst in pri son, if he did not tell what he knew of the murder of Mr. Ellis._ Amongst the flags on, tire platform was a green one, bearing the words, " Welcame to Tipperary The O'Donoghoe, her chosen chief." • On the motion of the Rev. Mr. Morris, the chair was taken by The O'Douoghoe, M.P. The Chairman said—People of Tipperary, it is with feel ings of great pride and satisfaction that I take the chair at so numerous and respectable a meeting as that which I see around me representing the strength, the patriotism, the religion, and manhood of ancient Tipperary—(loud cheers) —coming forward in one great • multitudinous mass to de mand even-handed justice for the rich and for the poor. Cheers.) lam sorry that the subject which bas brought us together to-day should be one of so melancholy a nature • but it is one which h as a tt racte d t h e attent i on not mere ly Of the people of all parts of Ireland, but of the people of England and Scotland as well—(cheers)—and I believe that the result of the determination which has been shown to sift and to in vestigate all the circumstances connected with the arrest, with the imprisonment, and with the execution of the un fortunate Cormacks—(load cheers)—will be the means of bringing about a change in the criminal law which will prevent the poor man who stands in the dock—(hear, hear, and cheers)—from being made the victim of a judge who may be zealous, and very anxious to show what he can do, but forgets that evenhanded and impartial justice which should be the characteristic of every one sitting on the judical bench. (Cheers.) No matter who - may be at the helm—no matter who may bold the helm of the State—whether they be Whigs, or whether they are like the present men—Tories—we will make them do justice to the people. (Loud cheering.) There are, I know well enough, in the present Government—l believe the Irish portion of the present Government—l believe that Mr. Attorney-General Whiteside, and Lord Naas too — (groans)—l believe that they are Orangemen. ( Groans,) I believe that if they could they would crush to the earth the frieze-coated sons of Ireland. (A Voice : Three groans for them)—(loud groans)—but, please God, they never shall do that. (Never, and loud cheers.) They have two organs of opinion—two newspapers who advocate their cause, and,saythat they are zealous patriots. I don't know where thole, in , o_sform_ their OpinioUS of Irish politics; I don't kW's, ',Mere they have formed their opinions of the Irish people ; I don't know where they have learned to judge of the feelings of the Irish people, bat they have learned it, no doubt, within the precincts and ander the shadow of the Castle of Dublin. But, as I have often said and thought, these who want really to know what are the feelings of the Irish people with regard to politics, with regard to religion, with regard to anything afecting the interests of Ireland, they must leave the shadow of the Castle of Dublin to come down into the country, and they could not come to a better place than into the middle, into the heart of Tipperary. (Loud cheers.) Though we have Orangemen at the helm of affairs we will demand justice for Ireland. Who are the Orangemen ? Are they the Catholics of Ireland? No. Are they the Protest ants of Ireland? No. Who then and what are they? They at e a miserable set of isolated political fanatics, cut off from all sympathy with those in the midst of whom they dwell. I will tell you what they think themselves to be. They think themselves to be a garrison in the midst of this country, to change if they can the ancient religion of our forefathers —(cries of" Never !")—and to drive our poor people across the ocean to America or to Australia. It' you were to hear what these Orangemen say of you—if you were to read their newspapers—you would suppose that they could govern Ire land, whereas the fact is that in the three great provinces of Munster, Connaught, and Leinster there is not one single place where Orangeism in the face of day dare to erect a platform and proclaim its opinions. (Cries of " No, nor never shall !") Even in the north of Ireland they cannot hold their meetings either, but are afraid to trust themselves beyond the narrow limits of a back parlour. I say, then, no matter whether they be Orangemen or not, they must 10 justice to Ireland, and they must allow us to investigate and sift this matter to the bottom—(hear, hear, and cheers) — and they shall not screen from just opprobrium and indig nation those officials who, in their zeal to earn the wages of the State. forget the justice that should be meted to the people. (Cheers.) It was with no small feeling of pride and gratification that in the House of Commons I found myself standing up on this question and asking in the name of the people of Tipperary that justice should be done to the murdered Cormacks. (Loud cheering.) Over and over again I brought it forward in the house, and I must say— for it is the truth, with some exceptions, with some honour able exceptions—that tale of horror, for it was nothing less, fell coldly on the ears of the English House of Commons. (Cheeri.) Mr.Attorney-General Whiteside—(groans)—got up to answer what I bad stated, and the statements and insinuations which he made with regard to the state of Tipperary would have led any reasonable man who impli citly believed Mr: Whiteside, and who knew nothing of the state of Ireland, to conclude that it was a service of danger even to walk in the streets; he would have led them to believe that a man might as well have lived on the frontiers of Caffraria as in Tipperary. (Oh, and laughter.) But the only way to make the people feel a re spect for life is to make them see, and to bripress upon them the fact that their lives are as dear to the State as the lives of any others in Ireland—(cheers) —and that the poor frieze-coated man and the man who wears broadcloth ought to be treated in the same manner. I shall now let Sou hear the resolutions which have been drawn up, and which are to be presented to the House of Commons, and I think that they are such as every patriotic Irishman who wishes well to his country—they are such as every reasonable man must assent to. The chairman retired amidst loud and continued applause. Mr. Thomas L. Cambia briefly proposed the first react lion, as follows :—" That as the taking away if human life is the highestresponsibility assumed by human law, the English constitution in committing the power of life or death to the judgment of a few individuals, has jealously provided every precaution, that, in the words of a recognised an d ' when the subject shall happen to be summoned to the eci,ion r • 'I is fellow , crea of his free he the follible ennseiere , ' ora- . " ui iie t,,uy find its them advoc ates w and never witnesses of adversaries—that a partisan magistracy, rebaracter, a grand jury doubt ful veracity, or proven i e st p e etit jury o f known hostility of long-cherished prejudice., are each and all antagonistic to the spirit and letter of said constitution, and coosequently must ever pro duce deep rooted discontent, maki n g of the court and its different forms a tribunal ins p iring public distrust instead of public confidence. That such have fre q uen t l y been the characte ristic features which have marked the administration of justice in this country ; aggravated lately by the still more uneuustitutional anomaly of a judge acting adversely to the accused, thus teaching the people to regard the law as its evenly and not as its protector." The Rev. John Kenyon, of Templederry, on coming for ward to second the resolution was received with loud cheer ing. lie said—Fellow -countrymen the strongest feeling which I experience at finding myself among a meeting of Tipperary men assembled to petition the British Parliament for some fragment of justice is a feeling of shame. (Hear, bear.) lam indignant with myself, for I thought I could never descend so low. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) Time was in Ireland when the priests in Ireland, aye, and the bishops of Ireland too, would scorn to petition the Saxon Parliament. (Loud cheers.) Men of Tipperary lam here to tell you not to put your faith in Parliament or in petitions. A fragment of justice we may endeavour to get; they may condescend, in a mere mater between man and man ; that is just pos sible, that is all. More titan that, if you expect—il 3 . 0 u ex pect real justice, universal justice—you shall be surely dis appointed. The English Parliament and the English Government are not concerned for you. They may admi nister justice to their own people, but you are a foreign people. They have their Leels upon your necks and their hands in your pockets, but they have no no tion of dispensing justice to you. (Cheers.) Men of Tip perary, we are met here for other purposes too. We will petition Parliament—even I will demean myself so 'far for that little fragment ofjustice, because I believe it to be pos sible; but I would not deceive you in the least by making you believe that any real justice can be had by that means. (Hear, hear.) Yes, Mr. Chairman, justice is a thing for which the soul of man thirsts. We all love justice, and Irishmen pre-eminently love it. On the face of the broad earth stands or sits not a being more noble, approaching closer, soaring higher into an equality with the Great Creator of the woad than a jtistj udge gdministering justice. (Cheers.) LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 1, 1858. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. NEWPORT, ABERGAVENNY, AND HEREFORD. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held at the London Tavern yesterday—the Hon. Capt. Fitzmaurice in the chair. The report said—" During the half-year ending the 30th of June, 1858, there was expended and added to capital £45,733 3s. 3d. The ordinary share capital amounted to £547,260 55.; the preference share capital to £222,835 10s. 6 per cent., and £102,494 5 per cent.; and the debenture debt was £363,947. The cross earnings of the half-year end ing the 30th of June, 1858, over 50 miles, amounted to £31,676 18s. 2d., against £26,568 2s. 4d., carried over 43 miles, during the corresponding half-year of 1857. The working expenses of the last half-year are £15,888 13s. 6d., against £14,359 13s. 9d. for the corresponding half-year of 1857. The net revenue of the half year amounts to £15,788 4s. Bd.; and this added to by the net balance of the last half }ear's account, viz., £BB6 16s. 8. 1 ., gives an available ba lance of £16,675 ls. 4d. Interest on the debenture debt, amounting to £7,950 ls. 4d., to the 30ili of June last ; of which £1,323, being the proportion due on capital expended during the half-year, has been charged to capital, and the balance is debited to revenue ; and after deducting interest on 6 per cent. and 5 per cent. shares, amounting to £9,186, a net balance remains of £862 to be carried over to the revenue account of next half•year. It was not till March of the past half-year that this company became empowered, under agreement with the Taff Vale Company, to run their passenger trains into Merthyr. Pending the development of a new traffic, working expenses were necessarily increased without corresponding advantage to the revenue; but the directors are sanguine in their belief that a considerable traffic will shortly be exchanged between the two companies, to the benefit of bath. One of the results of a junction of 'this company's line with the Taff Vale line has been the supply of Aberdare coal for the locomotive engines. The directors anticipate a considerable saving in locomotive expenses from the use of this coal; and as other railway companies are adopting it, it is not too much to expect that a very large traffic will ultimately arise for the ,general locomotive service of the country. It is much to be regretted that the prostration of trade, which was felt so severely in Monmouthshire, as in all other mining and manufacturing districts, at the time of the last half-yearly meeting, still continues • but it is a source of satisfaction that, notwith standing tire low rate of freight by sea, the additional con nections established between the Newport, Abergavenny, and Hereford and other lines have enabled the company to maintain its gross receipts, and, as is now the case, its mileage earnings. It is also a matter of congratulation for the com pany that the Shrewsbury and Crewe line will be open for traffic on the Ist of September next, thus affording the long promised direct line into Manchester from the South Wales district. The bill which was before Parliament at the period of the last half-yearly meeting, for the deviation of the Aberdare Canal, has become an act, and the company is now empowered to make the desired deviation. By that act power has been also given to the company to convert their debenture debt into debenture stock; and a resolution will be submitted to this meeting, to enable the directors to effect such conversion, by creating a stock bearing a per petual and irredeemable yearly dividend of 4 per cent. The substitution of a permanent investment at a fixed rate of interest for one of a temporary and uncertain character, will doubtless induce trustees and others to avail themselves of such security; and the operation will effect a saving to the company, not only in the amount of interest paid, but in the constantly recurring expenses of renewal. The Worcester and Hereford Bill, which was submitted to and approved by the shareholders of this com pany, on the 25th day of June, under the Wharncliffe order of the House of Lords, has now passed into an act; and the Newport, Abergavenny, and llereford, the Oxford, 'Worcester, and Wolverhampton and Midland Railway Companies, are severally empowered thereby to subscribe any sum not exceeding £37,500 to the Worcester and Hereford Railway. The Midland Railway Company has been admitted a party to the traffic agree ment between this company, the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton, and the Worcester and Hereford Com panies, with such modifications as the reasonable require ments of the Midland Company suggested ; all which were approved rind confirmed by the special general meeting of the shareholders of this company, assembled for that pur pose on the same day. The subscription promised by the Midland Company to the Worcester and Hereford secured a vigorous prosecution of the works of the latter company ; and the shareholders of all the companies, parties to the agreement, having unanimously confirmed the same, the lines of the four companies will, on completion of the Wor cester and Hereford, he worked as if each were an integral part of one whole and continuous system, and the traffic proper to the Newport, Abergavenny, and Hereford will thereby be fully developed. Though circumstances have conspired to retard the completion of the Worcester and Hereford Railway, the shareholders will not forget that the directors have always pointed to its accomplishment as the contingency on which the ultimate presperity of the New port, Abergavenny, and Hereford would have to depend ; and it is to the want of this essential link in the chain of communication between South 'Wales and the Midland district of the kingdom, that the deficiency in the gross earnings of the line, and the consequent want of dividend on the original shares of the company, is to be attributed. The agreement between this company and the Monmoutb, Coleford, and Usk Company for the working of the latter company's traffic, having been terminated by notice from the 11th day of October last, and this company's stock with drawn, the two companies have since continued to exchange traffic on friendly terms; but relations have been recently established under which this company is now supplying them with locomotive power. The expenditure of the com pany has been an object of constant anxiety. In concert with tke stores committee the secretary has assumed the management of the company's stores, and is solely respon sible for that department. By this consolidation of offices a considerable saving in expenditure has been effected, and other savings in this and other departments of management are in course of being effected." The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, congratulated the shareholders on the earnings of the line already, and the prospect held out to them of much greater results. That they should have been able to meet all their engagements, and to lay by a small sum for the future, amidst such serious commercial embarrassments, could not be otherwise than gratifying. They had no enemies among other railway companies; on the contrary, they were all ready to assist them, and to afford facilities for the develop ment of their traffic, and he believed that ultimately the line would be an exceedingly prosperous one. He regretted that the cost per mile bad exceeded the estimates, but it was satisfactory to know that it was far below the average. The board looked to the Worcester and Hereford Company as their great ally, and he trusted that with its co-operation the local traffic, as well as that in the direction of London, would prove very remunerative. After a short conversation, in which it was explained that it would require rather more than a traffic of £2,000 a-week to pay 3 per cent. to the original proprietors,whilst the pre cent traffic only produced about £1,300 a-week, the report was adopted. The preference dividends were declared, and a resolution moved for converting the debenture debt into a 4 per cent. debenture stock; upon which Mr. PRICE, M.P., said that though a little out of order, perhaps he might be allowed to make a few observations. He was chairman of the Worcester and Hereford line, which was originally promoted as a continuation of their line, but Irom circumstances it had not yet been made. Though their line was open from Hereford to Quaker-yard, yet it could not be said to be fairly open to the public until it was connected with Worcester and the Midland districts; and when it was so opened, though he would rot venture to predict what it would produce, he believed it would go a long way towards making up the £2,000 a-week they so earnestly desired. In the last session of Parliament power had been given to the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhatnpton Company, the Mid land Company, and this company, to subscribe towards the Worcester and Hereford, either in their corporate capacity or individually, and an agreement had been entered into between the companies which would secure certain advan tages to the Newport and Abergavenny Company on sub scribing £25,000. They could not do so in their corporate capacity, because they had no money—(laughter)—but he urged them to consider how it should be raised. A few shareholders in the Oxford and Wolverhampton Company had taken up the £25,000 ou behalf of that company; the Midland proprietors had authorised their directors to sub scribe £37,500, and he expected to have the money in a few days. The capital of this company was already about £1,300,000, and an additional £25,009 would be but little compared with the benefit it would confer on the line. The capital would he issued at a discount, it consisting of shares formerly taken up by the North-Western line, but which had been given up on Parliament refusing them power to lease the line. There was £2 4s. per share paid on those shares, of which those who now took them would have the benefit. A SliAitEiloi.DEß said it was of nu use to ask them fur more capital, as they were already cleaned out, and asked Mr. Brown, a director, how it was the traffic which he had formerly predicted would come on the line when opened to Quaker-yard, had not yet been realised ? Mr. BROWN explained that the Taff Vale Extension line had only recently been completed, and that the coal-fields in the Ebbw Vale and the other valleys of the district being connected by tramways with the sea, the proprietors of those trams would not at first extend them to the railway, as they would thereby give up a carriage over twenty miles of tram for one of seven or eight. The Ebbw Vale Company and others were, however, now making a connection with the railway, when he believed that iron and coal owners would at once come on the line. His firm held frosts £45,000 to £50,000 capital in this company— and just about one-third of the traffic on it—though they were paying higher by ls. to ls. 3d. per ton than they would by sea, the freight by which had fallen from 9s. per ton to 4s. 6d. They also looked for favourable results from the use of the Aberdare coal by their own and neighbouring lines; but it was of that nature that it cou ld only be used by companies to which it could be conveyed direct from the pit. Again, the recent depression had prevented the tram way proprietors of the coal valleys connecting themselves with the line until they saw the trade reviving. He still en tertained the fullest confidence in the line. Mr. ROBINSON explained that the low rate of freight by sea could only bo looked upon as . ternyorary, it having cri pittatcd izi the eL'eapnrss. groin, which had f_rr!ed many of the Baltic grain vessels into the coal and iron trade. To show the development in traffic, he might state that in the first instance the Mon'gomcryshire did not contemplate carrying passengers at all, as there was not enough for a three-horse coach. This company, however, offered them £B,OOO a.year for it; and now, in less than 10 years, it vas producing £12,000. The resolution was carried, and a vote of thanks given to the directors. . _ and the time for completion of the Worcester and Hereford Railway has been extended from the 15th day of August, 1858, to the 15th of August, 1861. By the same act, the Wor cester and Hereford Company have acquired power to re• purticase from the Newport, Abergavenny and Hereford Rail way Company. as soon as the Worcester and Hereford Railway is open for traffic, the portion of road extending from the Hay turnpike road at Hereford, to a junction with the Shrews bury and Hereford line in the parish of Holmer; and the Mid!nnd, the Oxfori, Worcester, and Wolverhampton, and the Newport, Abergavenny, and Hereford Companies, have severally acquired powers to subscribe towards the Worces ter and Hereford Railway, to any extent not exceeding £37,500. The directors have the further satisfaction of stating that the traffic agreement which was reported at the last half-yearly meeting to have been entered into between this company and the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolver hampton, and the Newport, Abergavenny, and Hereford Companies, has been modified and extended so as t 3 admit the Midland Railway Company a party also to the said agreement. The construction of works has been steadily pursued under the content with Messrs. Brassey an: Bal lard. The whole of the materials for a double line between Shrub's Hill station, at Worcester, and Malvern, have been purchased." The accounts showed the receipts to have been £189,075 175., and the expenditure £171,141 17s. 2d., leaving a balance of £18,523 19s. 10d. After a short conversation, in which the position of the company with the other companies was explained ss at the Newport and Abergavenny, the report was adopted. BOSTON, SLEAFORD, AND MIDLAND COUNTIES . The half-yearly meeting of this company was held yester day at the Easton Hotel, Euston-square; Mr. Ingram, M.P., was in the chair. The advertisement by which the meeting bad been convened having been read, the following report of the directors was submitted : " The directors have the satisfaction in again meeting the shareholders of informing them, that although railway earn ings during the first six months of the year are. as a rule, considerably less than those of the second (or December) half-year, yet that the earnings of this company's line between Barkstone Junction and Sleaford during the past six months will bear a satisfactory comparison with those of the preceding half-year, and this is the more encouraging as the general depression in trade, and the consequent large falling off in railway traffic during the last half-year, has affected the earnings of this line in common with all under takings of a like character. The gross earnings of the line for the past half-year have been £3,30:-',s. 4d., and the di rectors, after providing for the debenture interest, are enabled, in respect of the line between Barkstone Junction and Sleaford, to recommend a dividend of 2s. 6d. per share for the half-year ended the 30th of June last. The permanent way, stations, and other works, between Bark stone Junction and Sleaford are now completed, and are in excellent working order. Since the last half yearly meeting the directors, acting on the conviction they then expressed, that the further capital required to continue the line to Boston would be subscribed, have proceeded with the construction of this part of the under taking, and the line is completely formed, fenced, and ballasted, and the permanent way laid to within a mile and a quarter of Swineshead Bridge (six miles and a half from Boston). In submitting the accounts to the proprkxrs, the directors have to observe that, although no charge 's at present made against revenue in respect of office expenses, yet that the entire interest on £25,000 raised by debentures prior to the opening of the line, is paid out of the company's net earnings, and that this sum included the whole of the original Parliamentary and legal expenses, the entire cost of the sidings at the junction with the Great Northern Rail way, and of the station and other accommodation works at Sleaford, a considerable portion of which charges are pro perlyiapplicable to the line between Sleaford and Boston not yet earning revenue. The directors, in conclusion, beg to state that their confidence in the success of the under taking is unabated, and they hope to be able at the half yearly meeting in February next to congratulate the share holders on the opening of the entire line." The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said the company had shared the fate of most of the railways of the country, in respect of traffic during the past half year. Certainly the receipts had not come up to their expectations; but on the whole the directors thought, looking at the short time the line had been opened, that the returns must be considered very favourable. (Hear, hear.) l i i t ea h r a . d ) During the next half year the whole line would be finished, and then the shareholders would be better able to appreciate the value of the undertaking. His opinion was, always been, that the railway would be a good paying one. (Hear.) He was satisfied that as they would not be subject to competition, the traffic would increase half year after half year, and that ultimately the proprietors would secure a fair interest on the capital they had subscribed. He then moved the adoption of the report and accounts. Mr. TOOTAL seconded the motion. After a few observations from Mr. SIMPSON the motion was carried, and a dividend of 2s. 6d. per share declared in accordance with the statement in the directors' report. A vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the pro ceedings. FURNESS. Yesterday the half-yearly meeting of this company was held at the offices, 9, Old Burlington-street. The following is an abstract of the report which was adopted :—" The depression of trade, especially in iron, consequent upon the stoppage of railway enterprises in America and India, seriously affected the commercial pros perity of the Furness district, so thr.t pee - traffic returns (,£ . 27,810 7s. ld.) of the last half-year are not so favourable as they have been during some previous half-years; but the revival of that particular trade may be anticipated before the lapse of any lengthened period, but still the directors are able to recommend a dividend at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum for the half-year ending 30th of June last. There has been a reduction in the work ing expenses, and the directors will continue to give their careful attention to the subject. The expendi ture on capital account for the half-year amounts to the sum of £19,492 18s. 10d., which includes the sum of £6,000 for calls on the shares in the Coniston Railway held by this company. A further sum of £4,000 remains to be paid on these shares. To meet the expenditure on capital account, £30,000, part of the capital authorised to be raised by the ' Furness Railway Act, 1835,' was allotted to the shareholders, nearly the whole of which has been accepted as ordinary shares. The £lO,OOO authorised to be raised by the Coniston Railway Act has been allotted and accepted as 5 per cent. preferential shares. The works at the Millwood Junction, and at the junction with the Whitehaven and Furness Railway at Foxfield, have been lately completed. The curves have effected a great convenience for the through traffic, and a saving in working it. A considerable portion of the proposed renewal of Barrow Piers is completed, and the sum of £1,487, being about half the amount of the work co ntracted for, has been appropriated this half-year fre the reserved fund of 16,000 towards the expenses of this renewal. The arrangement. with the ITlverstone and Lancaster Com pany, under which that line is worked by the Furness Com pany, continues in force, and is satisfactory tosoth companies. The Ulverstone and Lancaster Company hiving had occa sion to apply to Parliament for power to raise additional capital, introduced clauses in their new ace to enable them to sell or lease their line to the Furness Company, but the directors will take no measures tending to connect the com panies without the knowledge and sanction of the proprie tors. The permanent way, works, and roling stock are in good order. An increase of £t2oo in the expenditure on the carriage account' is caused, partly by the thorough repairs which some of the passenzer carriages req uired,anei portlyfrom duplicate wheels and axles having been provided for the new waggon stock, an expenditure which is not likely to occur again for a long time. The diversion of traffic to the Ulver stone and Lancaster Railway has naturally diminished the receipts from the steamboat between I , eetwooti and PH. It has consequently been thought advisable to lay up the Helvellyn during the winter.' In continuing or leaving off this traffic next year the directors will be chiefly guided by the result of he experienc e o f th i s year. T he i mproved d e pth of water in the approach to Barrow Piers has given great facility to trade. There has been no diminution of depth by deposit, nor is any likely to take place." The dividend, as recommended in thereport, was declared, and the proceedings terminated in the usual manner. railway company, as the coal trade, on which their traffic mainly depended, was, of all others, the one most depressed. Nor had it as yet revived, although, as one of the trus tees of Lord Bate's estates, he could tell them there was every prospect of its doing so. The same state of things existed in the coal districts of Scotland. Colliers' wages were low, and there was no demand for the mineral itself. Since the report had been printed two of the collieries connected with the line had sent them down some coal, so that they were row in p- , sesion of a coal traffic. The coal traffic mentioned in the accounts was only the amount paid to them by the Taff Vale Company for taking their coals from the junction of the two lines to the tidal harbour at Cardiff. There were seven collieries in the neighbourhood of their line, four of which were already connected with it, but from all of diem they might, when the trade improved, expect a considerable amount of traffic. The main cause of the depression of the trade had been the strike, which had told unfavourably in Glamorgansh!re, and it was not until a few weeks ago that the! got the better of it in the Rhymney valley. The Rhymney Iron Company bad derived great advantages from the opening of the line, as it conveyed their iron to Cardiff. direct. They would also avail themselves of it for sending the large steam coal to Cardiff, where, by reason of dock quarryage, where they had four coal tips, the railway com pany had every facility of shipping. Measur es o f a l ega l character would test the right of the Taff Vale Company to charge ld. per ton for the siding at the juncti on , a c h arge independent of the toll then paid for running ove r 5 miles of that company's line. Mr. PLEWS seconded the motion, which was agreed to, and the proceedings terminated. WORCESTER AND HEREFORD. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held at the London Tavern yesterday—Mr. W. P. Price, M.P., in the chair. _ _ The rep rt said—" The directors have satisfaction in stat ing that the bill which was before Parliament at the period of the last half-yearly general meeting, for an extension of time for convicting tbp line, bps been paned into au Act; CANNOCK MINERAL. The half-yearly meeting was held yesterday, at the Eus ton terminus of the London and North-Western Railway. Mr. Malins was in the chair. The following report of the directors was submitted : " Tbe directors have to congratulate the proprietors OR the very satisfactory report of the engineer, which is ap pended hereto, in reference to the progress of the works. With the view of saving the cost of a duplicate station at Cannock, arrangements are being made far the use, on fair terms, of the South Staffordshire Company's station at that place. The remaining portions of the works not included in the first contract havirg been let on satisfactory terms to Mr. 13rossey, the directors feel justified in considering that their anticipations of a fair rate of dividend to the pro prietors will be fully realised. The line is expected to be opened throughout within a twelvemonth, when the London and North-Western guarantee will come into operation. The half-yearly statement of accounts shows that the receipts, up to the 39th June last, amounted to £20,509 ss. 7d., and the expenditure to £19,468 Os. Gd. ; leaving a balance in hand of £lO4 54. ld. The directors regret that in consequence of the non-payment of the calls on 264 shares they have been compelled, in justice to the other shareholders, to declare them forfeited, and a reso. lution will accordingly be submitted to this meeting for the confirmation of such forfeiture. Mr. Wagstaff having re signed his seat as a director, the board have supplied the vacancy by the election of Mr. H. J. W. Ilodgetts Foley, M.P. The offices of the company have been removed to Euston station, and Mr. Henchman having resigned the seere , aryship, Mr. Francis Harley has been appointed to the duty. By these arrangements a very considerable saving has been effected in the :expenses of management." The CIIAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said the line, being a short one, did not call for a long speech. The railway was let to good tenants, and it might be thought that the directors had not touch interest in the works; but that was not exactly - the case, as the line had to be made i❑ a good, substantial manner ; otherwise, the London and North-Western Com pany might object to it. The expenditure shown in the accounts did nut represent all that had been done, a very large amount of work having been executod since the end of the half-year by the contractor, Mr. Brassey. The estimate had been carefully revised, an 4 con tracts entered into for the construction of the line ; and there was every probability that it would be completed for such a sum as would give the proprietors a perpetual 4 per cent. dividend out of the rent to be received from the London and North-Western Company. Resolutions for the adoption of the report and accounts, and for confirming the forfeiture of 214 shares, were carried unanimously; and the proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to the directors for their great attention to the affairs of the company. WARRINGTON AND STOCKPORT. The report of the directors of this company states that the act for limiting, defining, and regulating the capital and debt of the company had received the royal assent. The rights of the company at the Chester station being still under litigation, the accounts for the traffic in connection with the Birkenhead, Lancashire, and Cheshire Junction line was still in suspense. A dividend of 31 per cent. on the paid-up capital for the half-year ended June 30 was recom mended. The capital account showed an expenditure of £.274,162. The loans and other engagements amounted in the whole to £51,727, to meet which there was unissued stock of the value of £19,020, and borrowing powers for the remainder. The receipts from passengers, parcels, &e., amounted to £5,699, being the sum necessary to pay per cent., as guaranteed by the leasing lines. £1,723 was required for interest and chief rents, and the remainder the dividend. BRISTOL AND SOUTH WALES UNION. The report states that the contract for the whole of the line has been let to Mr. Brotherhood, and that the directors feel every confidence in the completion of the works as rapidly as circumstances will permit. Agreements have been come to with the owners of the land which will be required for, and in the neighbourhood of, the tunnel, where it is intended to commence the line. The works will be begun immediately, and it is hoped by a vigorous prose cuticn of the works speedily to render the railway commu nication between Bristol and South Wales complete. The accounts show a total receipt of £33,987, of which £10,901 has been disbursed i❑ preliminary expenses of obtaining the act, &c., and a balance of E-23,056 remains in hand. ULVERSTONE AND LANCASTER. The half-yearly meeting of the proprietors was held at Ulverstone on Saturday—Mr. Brogden in the chair. The report stated that £9,581 bad been expended upon capital account during the past six months, making a total sum of £337,314; the revenue accounts for the half-year showed a receipt of £8,794, and an expenditure, including interest, of £7,793, leaving a balance which, together with that from last half-year, amounted to £2,113; the bill for authori%ing the creation of additional capital, and contain ing powers to arrange with the Furness Company, received the royal assent on the 12th of July last, and at a special meeting of shareholders held on the 29th ult., the directors were authorised to raise the sum of £78,000 of ordinary share capital, and the proportion of debentures authoriszd by the act. The long-continued commercial depression, especially in the iron trade, had materially affected the re ceipts of the company during the last half-year; but the directors continued those facilities for travelling and com merce which they had found necessary at the opening of the railway, and they have not withdrawn the or dinary trains because of the temporary depression in trade. During the summer months more trains for passengers have been running, and the receipts from this traffic promise to be very consUerable. With returning confidence and re vived trade, it is expected the receipts will be large, and yield a good divider,d. On the motion of the CHAIRMAN the report was adopted, and the meeting separated. OPENING OP TIIE CASTLE-CONNELL RAILWAY.— Another line has been added to the chain of railway com munication spreading from Limerick. The Limerick and Castle-Connell Railway was opened on Saturday. The first trip was made on Saturday morning from Castle-Connell to Limerick, and was availed of by about 70 passengers. The train left Castle-Connell at half-past nine o'clock, and not withstanding three stoppages at Nenagh-road, Grange, and Killonan, arrived in Limerick at 10 o'clock sharp. The engine was called the Lady De Burgho. The company's secretary, Mr. Maunsell, Mr. Pratt, the engineer, and Mr. Payne, superintendent of traffic, were amongst the officers of the company who travelled by the train. Capt. Ross, Government inspector, who made a final inspection of the line on Thursday, expressed himself fully satisfied with it. The directors had a trip at one o'clock to-day to Castle- Connell. Large numbers will leave by the train tomor row for Castle-Connell.—.Linierich Chronicle of Saturday. ABSENCE OF CRIME IN THE NORTIT.—A correspon dent writes to us ( Inverness Alva tiser) from Dingwall, of the date of Monday last, that the prison of that place, a first-class one, was then without a prisoner, civil or criminal; that the gates had been thrown open ; and that there was reason to believe that the prisons of Tain, S'ornoway, and Cromarty were also empty. These facts are creditable to the counties of Ross and Cromarty, which contain a pepa lotion of about 83,000. TUB PRESIDENT OF THE TTNTTED STATES. — Familiar as our people are generally ‘v.th toe unostentatious habits of the chief officers of our Government, one cannot witness them, with the knowledge of the pomp end show of royalty to invite the contrast, without involuntarily indulg ing it. On Saturday last President Buchanan arrived at the Relay-house, or Washington Junction, as it is more properly called, en route for Washington city. There was a rumour abroad that he was to arrive, and the visitors had, consequently, grouped about the house when the train came along. We soon perceived the President coming from the cars to the platform, looking hearty, but thoroughly travel soiled, smiling, and cheerful. By his side, and evidently offering with gentlemanly deference the courtesy of atten tion, was a rather rough-looking individual, whom we took for a conductor or breaksman. The gentleman will excuse our blundering in such a matter; but, upon inquiry, we were informed he was Sir William Gore Ousetey. On ' passing into the har-room the President threw off his coat and his white neckcloth ' carelessly pitching them over a chair, opened his shirt collar, and tucked up his sleeves for a wash, conveniences for this purpose being in the apartment. At the time, however, both basins were occupied by two young men, neither of whom seemed to be aware that the President was about. He waited pa'ieutly BORIC time when some one spoke and in vited him upstairs. Ile declined, however, quietly re marking tLat lie would wait for his tura. Ault as soon as tic hi.sil - .; were vacated he "tool; his Ilan' in a jrilly good wash in the public. bar-room. This done, he seemed rather perplexed about the arrangement of his neckcloth, and seemed likely to tie his nose snd mouth up in it. Some body just then offered assistance, and the President was briefly equipped. At about this time a person who had come into the room sang out pretty near to him, " Look here, I thought the old Pres. wa s to be here to-cay --,, The sreech was cut short by a nudge, while a momentary comical expression passed across the face of that same " old Pres." A cigar was handed to him by a friend ; he took a good satisfying drink of—not "old rye," which he is said to affect, when prime—but ice -water, had barely fired up his cigar, when the bell rang, and " all aboard" summoned the chief magistrate of the United States to his sent in the cars, arAl away they went to Washington. We took our admira lion of this scene of republican simplicity quietly with us into the cars for Baltiasore, and mused with some compla cency over the sterling honour of being an American zen,—Baltintore Nun. RIIYMNEY. The half-yearly meeting of the proprietors of this com pany w as yesterday held at 28, Great George-street, West minster —Mr. John Foyle in the chair. The following is an ahridgement of the report for the half-year ending 30th June:— " The line from Cardiff to Rhymney was opened for the carriage of minerals on the 25th February, and for passen gers on the 31st March last, but in consequence of the great , depression of trade, and the circumstance that none of the coal proprietors have matured their arrangetnents for send ing their coal to the Port of Cardiff; the coal traffic on the line cannot at present be said to exist. Th e revenue h as been derived almost exelo-ivelv fr,te passengers, general goods, and iron, and indicates to a limited extent only the resources :of the undertaking. No final arrangemenre gardt has been made with the Taff Vale Railway Company to the tolls to be charged by them for the traffic passing over their line. The sum to be deducted on that account to the 30th June last may be estimate d at £BOO. The board re commend that the balance on revenue account of £2,386 2s. 9d. shall be carried to the credit of the current half-year. No difficulty has been experienced in conducting the traffic with regularity and efficiency. The passenger and general goods traffic will prove a more important source of revenue than was anticipated, and there is a steady increase in the number of through pat.sengers and in the amount of goods traffic with the Midland Counties and the north. The Rhymney Iron Company have to a grea t extent com pleted arrangements for forwarding nearly the whole of their traffic to Cardiff. When the trade improves and the shipping arrangements at Cardiff are perfected, a large revenue from the traffic in iron and iron ore may be reason ably anticipated. From strikes among the colliers, and other causes, the coal trade has for a considerable time been in a state of great depression. This has been felt at all the coal ports, and particularly so at Newport and Cardiff. The prospects of the trade, however, are now somewhat im proving. There are several collieries already connected with the line, and others in a forward state, from which, with an improved trade, a good traffic may be expected. Additional siding accommodation is being provided at the Croekherbtown Junction. The charge of Id. per ton made by the Tvii. - Valc CmTaily in rcsprct of traffic delivered by them at the Crockberbtown Junction, and which the directors have hitherto paid under protest, has materially impeded the development of the coal traffic over the dock branch. The directors have been advised that the Taff Vale Company have no authority to make this charge, and they are taking active steps for having the question decided. An agreement on favourable terms has been en tered into with the trustees of the Marquis of Bute, by which very extended shipping accommodation on the west side of the east dock will be afforded to this company." The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said it was so full and explanatory that very few words would be required from him. They could not fail to express their gladness at the completion of their line, but that joy was somewhat diminished by the fact that the general de pression of trade which had interfered with railway re tprne generally hAd Affected them more MA Any other - _ - 1 ---- ---4, :- TS PAPER _ .

(Loud cheers,)_,.. • • - . - Din, men of Ireland,- we are here for something more. It is not for nothing, at this hour of the day, that the county of Tipperary should assemble together. There is a practice in many religious orders that at the end of every seven years the members of them meet together in the church, and go through the ceremony, which they call the renewing of their baptismal vows. (Laughter.) Some of you may have seen that practised; it is a pious practice that conduces to recreate the primitive fervour of Christians. Well, it is 15 years now since we renewed the baptismal vows of our p v rio tism —(cheers)—not, I believe, since 1843; and it is time for us to come and refresh them. Since last we met in this neighbourhood delusion has come upon • ns; we have lost our trust in God and in our selves, and we have allowed ourselves to be drifted • whithersoever the winds lud the waves might drive us; and yet, my countrymtt., what was true for as then is true for us now. Truth never fades; we may grow tired, and grow cold, and despond of our country; but what was true fifteen years ago is true to-day—that we have no hope but in ourselves. (Cheers.) We come here, then, in spite of all the falsehoods that are being propagated daily—in spite of all the Lords-Lieutenant that have come here since to delude us —in spite of all the flunkies in all the towns of Ireland, that pretend that Ireland is prosperous—we come here to tell them all, and to tell the world, that there is an undying principle in our heart that assures us that all this is false— that we are not prosperous—that we would not be prosperous if we could - ; for what is prosperity if we cannot be free. (Loud cheering.) Therefore, let it be known to England and to her Parliament, to the flunkies of Derry, to the flunkies of Dublin, to the flunkies of Limerick, to the flunkies of Cork, that the men of Tipperary know that they are not well off while theydan't belong to themselves—while they belong to others—while others own you. What is a man if he feels that he is owned by another ? (Several voices—" He is a slave.") A man by, baptism is born into the Church ; we by our birth are born to be patriots ; we inherit this as an inheritance of seven centuries from our plundered sires., and we never can consent to dwindle down Into the type of a negro slave that feels not his degradation. We feel that, and while we do so no one can dispose of us, . for— _.„-‘ . ..;-. "Jr you do but waist thelour.

Let us treasure up our wrongs; let its keep them until God inspires us at some happy moment and opens a way for us. - (Cheers.) We have come here, then, to renew our duty to our country ; we all pledge our selves that we shall unite to free our trampled country. They are not to delude us; we will understand our position in spite of all fiunkydom. Well, men of Tipperary, are these our means? Am I going to tell you the means of perform ing this duty and crowning it ? Alas ! no. We are as sheep without a shepherd. The 211ases that is to deliver us has not yet appeared. We cast straining eyes around, and we see him not. But during the last 15 years a voice has grown up among us—it is intolerance. R e li g i ous intole rance advanced from that time when it was o'Councll's boast that he wished to conciliate all sects. lam net bete to say how this happened or what was the cause of it, or who was to blame or blameless in the matter; all I can say is the truth, that the brand of religious discord has been flung - amongst us, amid, unhappily, we have yielded to the temptation. Men of Tipperary, we are assembled here to state that we are not bigots, that we open our bands to all our countrymen of all denominations—we interfere not between any man and his God. If we have returned The O'Donoghoe as our member it was net because he was a Catholic, but because he was The O'Donoghoe. (Cheers.) Let us go back to that time. Remember how we felt then, and put away from ourselves this great danger and tempta tion—wailing with patience, praying with fervour to God, arming our own hearts with patience and fortitude, and proclaiming to the world that we are prepared for it, and there will be a greater object gained than ever can be gained by this petition. However, we will all condescend to peti tion for this time, and God send it may be the last. (Loud cheers.) The county Tipperary condescends once more to petition the British Parliament to take into consideration the case of those unfortunate brothers the Cormacks; but even if they grant us that, it is but an infinitesimally small instalment of justice. .The speaker concluded amid general applause by seconding the resolution, which was put and carried. The Rev. Michael Scanlan proposed the next resolution as follows :—" That the assize petit jury panel of this county has been always regarded by the vast majority of its inhabi tants as a glaring outrage on our administrative criminal , justice—that at this moment the first 50 or 60 names on that panel contain the names of some five or six Catholics only, and these usually non-attending jurors; that the foremost and available jurors therefore empannelled to try the unfor tunate Catholic accused must be almost to a man taken from the ranks of a party who have ever manifested the most open and avowed hostility to his class, his religion, and his rights—thereby couverzing the right of challenge of the accused into a mockery, and his trial by a jury of his fellow-countrymen into a mere delusion and a snare."— Passed. The Rev. Mr. Lanigan moved the adoption of the follow ing resolution :—" That the evils we complain of have had their unhappy consummation in the case of the late ill-fated brothers Cormack; that the jury in that case was not fairly chosen ; that the witnesses were not of reliable veracity, the one being an accomplice, the other an acknowledged perjurer aad an accomplice likewise, and the third a gaoler, whose more than doubtful testimony as to what he said he overheard in the prison was improperly and unconstitu tionally admitted in evidence; that the acknowledgment made by the principal witness in this case- 7 naraely, that he had been threatened to be left to rot in gaol it be re fused to give evidence—and from his subsequent confession, attested by the. affidavits of three respectable witnesses, are facts lomii.yocaning for the strictest investigation, and that we cannot let this opportunity pass without recording thus publicly our iv ter disappointment at the 'nisei able evaAion whereby the Government have sought to justify their refasal of such investigation." Mr. George Burke, is seconding the resolution, entered' into an analysis of the evidence of Burke, the approver. The following resolution was then passed, and the meet ing separated :—" That a petition be prepared and presented to the House of Commons, playing for an investigation WO all the circumstances connected with the trial and exe cution of the brothers Cormack." This agitation will do incalcu►able mischief in Tipperary. It wi►l be observed that Priest Kenyon was not content wit h asserting the innocence of the Cormacks : he endeavoured to revive the seditionary feelings of '4B in the breasts of his bearers. . TRANSATLANTIC COMMUNICATION. The Dublin Evening Mail if last night says :—" We are able to announce that authority has been given by Mr. Hamilton, the Secretary of the Treasury, to the Board of Works, to remit all port charges on the steam-vessels em ployed by Mr. Lever to ply between New York and Galway. This is a satisfactory proof that the Government will do all in their power to advance Irish and, we will add, imperial interests in connection with Mr. Lever's enterprise ; and we are glad to learn that the passage made by the Plince Albert `has never been surpassed by any steamer running on the ocean. Her passage from Halifax to New York was the fastest on record.'" THE NEW COMMISSIONER OF POLICE. Yesterday Col. Lake ((f Kars) was present at the Brard of Commissioners of Police during the transaction of bliSi- ReSi. Col. Brown presided. Whether Col. Lake was pre sent officially, or was only acquiring a knowledge of the routine duties of the office, is not known. RETURN OP THE EARL OP EGLINTON TO DUBLIN. His Excellency returned to the Viceregal Lodge, from .he north, yesterday evening. Mr. James Cooper and Col. Moody had interviews with Sir E. Bulwer Lytton, yesterday, at the Colonial office. GENERAL STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY.—The 67th half-yearly meeting of the shareholders of this C61;11- pany was livid yesterday at their offices, 71, Lombard-street, Mr. John Wilkin in the chair. The report of the directors and a statement of the accounts for the half-year ending the 30th June last were read to the meeting, and gave much satisfaction to the proprietors, who unanimously adopted the same. The usual dividerid at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum was declared, and the cordial thanks of the proprie tors voted to the chairman and directors for their continued zealous services in' the management of the company's affairs, after which the meeting separated. SALE OF ESTATES.—The estates belonging to the late Miss Lamb er t, O ver - san ds, were offered - for sale at Newby Bridge, by Mr. R. Crewdson, a few days ago, and were sold in lots at very high prices, realising upwards of £30,000, the Duke cf Devonshire (since the sale) being the largest purchaser. Important lots were sold to capitalists at Manchester, Bury, and Whitebaven. Mr. Crewdson also offered for sale on Thursday, at Ulverston, the Head Style estate and other detached prcpertie3, under a decree of the Court of Chancery. Nearly the whole of the pro perty was disposed of at high prices. Mr. Ainslie was the purchaser of a large portion of the Road Style estate at up wards of £ 4 , 000 .--Westmoreland Gazette. MARVELLOUS EscArE,On the 19th ult., e s the up express train was descending the incliue towards Beat toll, the ei . g i ue d r i ver to his horror observed a little child about four years of age sitting in the middle of the rails, along which he bad to pass, picking up stones into a small pitcher. Unable in time to arrest the progress of the train, he pushed on in intense agony till he reached the station, full of fear of the consequences. Ou inquiry, however, the infant had been found,uelther harmed nor afraid, pursuing her work, by the mother, whose attention and fears the passage erf the train excited.—Dumfries Herald. TILE HARVEST IN SCOTLAND.—We have zig-zagged over the southern half of Scotland during the last few days, and in all directions the crop is being secured under most auspicious conditions. In the eastern end of Strathmore a number of reaping machines are at work, and though occa sionally going wrong from want of skill in management, they have done valuable service, and fairly satisfied the farmer how valuable en ally inventive science can now bring into the harvest field. Experienced parties say the farmers are deficient in sharp, vigsrous working of the machines, and recommend a change of horses every two hours, sad to keep the work in a brisk state all throve!). ln the later parts of Forfarshire the crops ate all ready, and cutting goes on uninterruptedly. If there is a fault in the case, we think the fatmers are taking matters toe easily, forgetful of the dreadful hacksets and perils of the harvests of 1836 and 1857. Up through tile Perth shire straths all are busy at work, the blue bonneted, wrinkled Celts toiling away in - small bands—the fewness of the reapers suggesting ideas of impossibility its to tha ingathering of the spreading fields of grain. Around Perth the bulk of the wheat crop has been stacked. There several farmers have been doubly diligent, labouring late carried and early.
