(From the Calcutta Monthly Journal.] Dgc. 9, 1022.—We have seen several letters from Persia, received within the last few days. One of them, dated Ta breez, 28th August, states that the cholera was prevailing throughout the country, though its ravages had ceased at Ts breez, where 60 in a day had been the maximum of deaths. Observes the writer of the letter—" The Prince of Persia gained a great victory of the Turks at Topra Nulls, neat En. van ; it was rather a flight..intleed, than a battle; but the disease making its appearance very violently in his camp he took fright, retrograded, and has returned to the vicinity of Ta. breez. His army is dispersed ; indeed, it is now almost ajoke to talk of a regular army here. The Turkish army was totally dispersed, and did not stand a moment.. The old Caimultan, Prime Minister to the Prince here, died by the Epidemic ; a great loss to this country, for he was an honest, and, for a Persian, a wonderfully patriotic man. His son succeeds him. ' " Persia is just now in a fair way of becoming terribly disor ganized and falling into confusion. The crisis, I suspect, will be the King's death,..-an event that cannot be far off. Kho. rasan, since I left it, I hear is In open revolt, and the disaffec tion to the reigning family is increasing every day, as is their extortion. It will not be a country for any Englishmen to go through soon, and I would decidedly advise any one who con stilts his ease, to keep out of it, and prefer the way by Egypt, or a good Indianian." The Russians. (states our other Correspondent) are going to fix a Council Qeneral at Auzace, in Milan. The Persians don't like it, but dare not object to any thing the Northern Autocrat dictates. Dr.c. 12, 1822.—Accounts brought by the brig Louisa, re. cently arrived from Acheen, state that an attempt lurd been made to poison the King and Queen of Acheen, by a Nave dab, who have been seized and put into prison.

Mr. Macnowatscs, the Secretary, then submitted to aie clety a general view of the business which had occupied the: attention of the Directors since the Anniversary Meeting In January, and recapitulated shortly the premiums ofibred from the funds placed et their disposal by the Society. From the Secretary's Report it appeared that the usual classes of pre iniums in matters connected with Agriculture and Rural Eco nomy, bad been continued; namely, for encouraging improve ment in the breed of black cattle, horses, anti sheep, byyre roiums to bq awarded under die direction of the resident Members at district shows,—for raising green crops ttf clover anti other grasses, and saving clover seed,—for cultivating waste lands, or improving them by draining, raisinglilantas tions, promoting the manufacture of kelp, and eenvertlng certain marine plants found. on our shores to other weld Nurses :—Under , these several heads, premiums had been ad vertoted to a large amount, and in addition to which, consider able sums had been offered on new subjects, to which the atten tion of the Directors had been lately called, and among these, for essays containing the best account of the present state of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, and the changes affect ing their condition,—for experimeots in salving sleep,--for ex periments with manures,—for the gre atest quantity of cloth made from ;Merino wool in Scotland': This latter premimn has been offered, with the twofold object of encouraging the home woollen manufacture, and of ascertaining whether the flocks of Merino sheep which had been introduced Into this country had continued to sustain their characters fur fineness of fleece :—and as connected with the fineness of fleece the Dis rectors had not overlooked the merits of a native race of sheep, which was in some danger of becoming extinct,--those of Shet land. With the view of forwardi ng t h e !s ystematic improve ment of this interesting breed, th e prentsums were proposed to extend to a course of years. In tine ' the Secretary observed that the Directors, as was their duty, had not omitted to call the public at tent i on to the a d vantage s which might arise in the promoti on of agriculture , from such facilities as were afforded front time to time in the acquisition of articles of home produce • with these views the reduction of the salt duties had lately induced them, in addition to the p re * miums offered for experiments with salt in the feeding of stock, to recommend the curing of provisions, as likely to be intro duced with advantage into some districts of this country. In the first instance, they bad offered a premium for the greatest number of tierces of beef cured in the counties of Aberdeen and Kincardine, and it' this was f oun d to b e atte nded with sa tisfactory results, premiums would hereafter be exteutled to other districts and to other descriptions of provisions. On the subject of the general allow of fat stock atEdinburgh, t p h os e al Se o c f re t ta he ry D r i e re p c o to rte re d, for tta n t eo t u h r e ag li t b n e g r i a t l i s n u t u h t e placed at the dis enabled them, in addition :u premiums, fin. the p e r a e r s i r o n u t s Y n e l a ii r ir i o la y L . l offbreeds of cattle rested In Scotland, to extend these prenutinis to several varieties of Sheep and .plies. The terms of all the premiums had been adjusted under the advice of eminent prec deal agriculturists, and the sh ew , i n or d o , to a ccounuodete the wishes of both sellers and buyers, had tie of December next, when it was ex p ecte d fine display of stock. The Me et i ng was much gtatified, with ln er fixed ixwed would d er b d e i a 10th very e the report of the proceedings of the Directors, and the distinct view thereof given by the Secretary. Mr. SMALL. KErtt, of kinmouth, from the Committee on the Distiller)? Laws, reported the :steps taken by that Com mittee since last General Meeting. lie etated that it must he gratifying to the Society, whose exertions for obtaining an ame lioration of crest laws had been continued kroni time to time since 1807, to learn the prospect which It now presented of their being put on a proper footing—that the provisions of the Bill now in progress through Parliement were so generally known, that it was unnecessary to advert to them farther than to say, that they met the views of the Society's Co mm i ttee; and t o e Directors trusted that the liberal views t:k o e f n c b ou y o l t i r i y s .Majesty's Government, the Legislature, and in the Report of the Parliamentary Commiseienete, would be aided by the best exertions of gentlemen resident in those districts where smuggling prevails, in carrying into effect t h e m i tiatry provisions of the Bill when passed into a law. The Secretary mentioned, that the Direetces, aware of the advantages that might attend a course of leonine in this c i ty on the veterinary art, embracing the knowledge of the causes, pre„ vention, and cure of the diseases of hems, id 4C, cattle, and sheep, had made some progress in the businem the Diree• tors had particularly in view the great necessity, which was universally felt to exist, of affording the meruts of better infor mation to country smiths and farriers, who were in general very deficient in the necessary knowledge'. The matter was remit ted to a committee, of which Dr. Barclay wrie coov enee ,' ase i sts , al by Dr. Coventry, professor of agriculture, end other gentle men conversant in the subject. From th a e rt r :, cp cp. o co r eo t e of this coins mitten, which was read at desire of the Meeting, it appeared, . that London, Dublin, and also many of the Prnicipiliiiititpicniutsesies,uobinn. ci:la l ted for jirtivti the Continent already possessed tiw fulvantlw tie lectures delivered on the veterinary nioet instances, with the necessary anatomical demonetrations ; to t r e , rearing of the fi ner breeds of allaying a similar :mil the committee gave is decided opinion on die importance ipnioSs,,c4onticialts:lll.l e'ae committee stated, that, if a proper esteblishment could be formed in thi s city, 'bonded on scientific that the increasing attention Cal ende l the hest results might he eapeetid to Attend it, and live stock powerfully recommended the :subject to notice, anti to swane degree of support from the Society, Itt eo far as might be consistent with ' a doe attention to other . e bj ects, ye es _ ante of the suggestions in the report and the pe oceedint ,'" s P o M e Directors thereon, the Society placed a sum, not casting MU. tit the diepoaal of the Directore for promoting public instruction M the ensuing seeson ' in the vetermery art :Lod the dis eaties o f live stock, under such regulations as ma) , be approved of, or, the understanding, that the subject, as regiirds the. Society, is entirely experitnental. , At last General Meeting h a d been rem i tteti to the Direeter% with instructions to present a memorial to his m a j esty ., verament name of the Society , steting the appreheneions a entertain: that thq Act paned ,at. the 0 ).4 of the last *slim of Parliament, reducing the Duties on Barilla, would be. at.. tended with serious consequences to the kelp manufacture, and the numerous population engaged in it. It was reported from that Committee, that the remit to them had been' carried into effect, and that in consequence of the representations made on the subject, a Bill had b een i ntro d uce d in t h e presen t S ess i on, and had just been passed into a law, for the proteethen of the kelp manufacture. Mr. basis of Middleton then rose, and said that the satis faction which had been derived from this 'measure threatened to be very short lived, for he had just received information. that another BiII'IVEM in progress, which must defeat the provisions of the Act lately passed; for by this Bill the importation of Barilla, under the reduced duties of the Act of the last Session of Parliament, was proposed to be extended to the 6th of January, hilt, seven months later than the period when the new duties were to be charged, in terms of the Act alluded to by the Secretary which had just received the Royal assent. Mr. Inglis concluded by Moving a resolution, declera-' tory of the Society's opinion, that this second bill of the present session must completely counteract the salutary provisions of the previous one, anti that measures should : be taken to eubmit those sentiniente in the yroper quarter. This gave rise to sonic discussion, which terintnatedin a remit to the Directors, with instructions to take such Dleaxurri es might appear expedient under the circumstances or the case, and on tiVitni of Mr- Mann> Binning, they . were ittAired to meet ()utile folloiving' day,. so as no time m i ght ba.losi. alr. MACDONALD of St. Martins, a Member of the COITI. mitten on the Gaelic Dictionary, in the unavoidable absence of Henry Mackenzie, Big. Chairman of that Committee, front bad health, stated the roceedings of the Committee since la t e ,General Meeting. fi l e mentioned that the now satisfactory state of progress of the work would be sufficiently ohvions, when the Society was informed that It out of 17 letters of the Gaelic alphabet were transmitted as finished by the learned. Gentlemen employed In the compilation; that the three re enaining letters were also far advanced; and, in fine, that mea sures would immediately be taken for subjecting the.wliole to final revision, and putting the work to press. As connected with this subject, Lord Ratmatyne laid on the table proposals by the ltev, Mr. M‘Giblion of Inverary, for re publishing by subscription, from a copy at Invorary Castle, the only one now known to exist, the forms of the Church of Scot land, by Bishop Carsewell of Argyll, printed in Gaelic at Edinburgh so far back as 1567. This ancient and curioua book, publialied in the Gaelic language at so early a period, must be highly interesting, not only to the admirers of that languege, but to the antiquary and general scholar. On his Lordship's motion, the proposals were remitted to the Cominittee on the Dictionary. Sir JOUN SINCLAIX called the attention of the Society to the expediency of offering 4 premium for information founded on practical experiment, to regard to the state of maturity at which the several sorts of grain might be cut without injury to the crop, and avoiding the risks to which it might otherwise be exposed. Some authorities refereed to by the Right Bon. Baronet appeared to suggest that die grain was frequently left for some time uncut, in tht view of receiving more of the ripen ingprocese than was necessary. Thu Meeting referred the subject to the Directors and to die Committee for. suggesting ' 'premiums, amid in the mean tune recommended to the Mem. hers of the Society, and agriculturists in general, to attend to the subject in the course of the ensuing harvest, and to com municate to the Society the result of any experiment they may be led to make„--Another suggestion by Sir John, for offering a premium for information front pracucal experiments as to the nature cause, means of prevention, and cure of the disease called the !waxy, frequently so fatal to sheep flocks, was re. fared to the same Committee. Letters from Sir Henry Steuart, of AlLinton, Bart. were laid I on the table, stating ins having for some years practised sue cessfully the operation of transplanting fult-grown trees, with.' out mutilating their branches or •injuring their appearance; that he had been induced to undertake the drawing. up an ac. count of his practice ' to which his attentiou had been more particularly called, by observing that the Society had offered a premium for information on the subject. Sir 'Henry states, that he proposes to dedicate his publication to the Society, anti in the meantime requests that a Ci mmittee. of the resident Members may be appointed to inspect his operations, and re. port. The Directors having reconunended that the request should be agreed to, and having named Comenittee Lord Belhaven. whom failing. Alexander Young, .I:sq.. of ' Bar. burn, was appointed convener, with a recominimdotion to re port in the course of the ensuing harvest. The Secretary mentioned that Mr. John Archd. Murray had lately called the attention of the Directors to the expediency of having inquiry made into the advantages of the flnivalt scythe, Used for cutting down corn in Flanders. From the accounts of travellers, it appears that the grain is cut and collected with much comparative ease and neatness ; anti it was thought tie. *nerving of inquiry whether it would not be of advantage to have the Instrument introduced into &inland. This subject, and a notice by Sir John flay, Bart. at the same meeting, in regard to the difficulty he had experienced from the state of the existing laws, in importing into this country from thp cond. nent, specimens of the improved breeds of rattle or sheep, were recommended to the attention of the Directors. it appeared that Sir John had lately found it impracticable to get permis sion to import some fine woolled sheep front Saxony, of which he had wished to make trial. The Secretary laid on the table copies of the reports of the Commissioners appointed to consider the subject of weights and measures, and of the Bill introduced into Parliament in pursuance of these reports;. and a copy of the condonation of, the transaction s of th e Society for the encouragement of art*, Ste. London, lately transmitted for the Society's Library. The thanks of the Society were voted to the Royal College of Physicians for the continued use of their Hall, Worded for the general meetings of the Society ; and on the motion of Sir John Sinclair, seconded by the Lord Provost of Glasgow, the thinks of the Meeting were given with great approbation to the Earl of Elgin i the Vice-President, in the Chatr, for his Lo r d. ship's parucular attention the business of the day, and gene rally to promoting the views of the Society.

CORPORATION. - On the question that the Limerick Local Taxes Regulation Bill be read a third time, The Earl of CLARE expressed his entire approbation of and his conviction that the measure was necessary for the wel, fare of the city of Limerick. The LORD CHANCELLOR felt great 011114:n14es upon the subject ; for though he improved of some tiarts of the Bill, he did not know where the prtnciple it establish ed', of interim.; ence with chartered Corporations, would stop, There . was. not a Corporation in the empire that might mast Int #44biuoca. 0, such a mime:tare tomorrow. It might be verT lit to remedy ttbust-s, if any such exivied ; but highly improper to re.rundel the whole Corporation. Ile d:id not wiilt to oppohe the progress of the Bill, so much as to prevent its being drawn into price_ dent in future. Lord REDESDALE, at some Length, stated his objections to the principle and to the details of t h e measure..

The 'Marquis of LA NSDOWN (on the briteeing up of the Report of this Billy renewed his objection on behalf of the" holders of agistment land. In a parish where two.tithide of I,l l c land waatitheable, and the other third agistutent, the agistment land-holder was sure to be. bound by a majority ; anti tlus-eforth the Bill wascompulsory upon hint, arid comp. tisery upon him only. Ile (Lord 14anstiown) would nut have opposed a general compulsory measure, but he did very strongly object to a par tial ono : he should therefore move that the clause alai-respect to agistment land should be lett out of the Bill, The Earl ef WESTMORLAND said, that if the assess. ment was retold without taking in the at:lst-inept hind, theholders of such land wouhl, afterwards, be ettbled to turn their land to other purposes and [it) free fume the tithe, While their neighbours wart paying it. The Lori of RI SSLIIN saw to equivalent which the agise ment bondholder was to get in lku of his exemption ; and the agistment landhelders were quite :titre to letiNpOund in the vese try, because the other proprietors lightened their own tithes by' saddling them with a share. The Lail of LIVERPOOL' said, that the Act perrniued a. man, according to his property, to have m many es votosin the vestry. Now as the agisttnetA landholders were sitnost universally among the rich, they had every chance of being fairly represented. Lord MAItYI3()ROLTOII thought that it was one great ad_ vantage of the Bill, that it threw part of the general burden upon the holders of ngistment land. The Earl of BLESSINGTON declarF3l, that, from the pm- , sent state of agriculture, many proprietors were compelled to keep large tracts in the state of agistment land. To pay tithe upon such land would absolutely rain them. The Earl of BE LAI()RE could see no reason why the *gist. ment landholders should be more hardly dealt with than other classes. The Bishop of DOWN thought that the clergy of Ireland . would be ready at all times t 4 give up a portion of their pro• peaty, in order to preserve the public peace anti welthre. Ile was of opinion that this Bill would prove bencticial in its re sults, and as *ugh would give It his sopport. , The Eari.ot;p RN concurred in the wish that hod just boon 00 by the iteveress4 PrOlatet but vort feasts that lie di4 not ii/nelt look farward to soy ffrott amelioration: of the tithe system, as 'crowing out of this Bill, As she croso now stood, the owner of agistinent tithes was clearly the only party who. was liable to be compelled to part with his property. Lord CLIFDEN was earnestly desirous that' the 11111 might produce the beneficial effects which some Noble and Reverend Lords anticipated ; but really he doubted the fact. It appeared to hint that ihe best and shortest conise which could be Joined would be this—to Nell tho tithes, at the full value, to the land owner. • The Marquis of LA NiiDOWN, in explanation, said, thg seeing what appeared to be the general sentiment of the House, he would not press his proposition; and the Noble Marquis withdrew it aecordinglY• The Bishop of Dow): and Lord Ct. trillerr having mutually explained, the Report was rectived, and it was agreed to take the third reading of the Bill to-marrow. IRISH CHURCHES' 81/.4 The Earl of LIVERPOQI., in ninviogth — e 'third reeding of the Irish Churches Bill, fetid, that this; Bill would operate as a measure of relief, as the hater part of it contained a proviaion for reducing the rates for the rebuilding and repair of churches from 6 to 4 cent. Lord 11OLLAND said this was a most extraordinary Bill both In its thape anti in its provisions. The object of. this measure was, to make a considerable number of hie Alajeety's Ittenan Catholk subjects pay fpr the building of Protestant Churches ; and it was a little whimsical, therefore, to call it 11, measure of relief. It might be a measure of justice or necessity, but to call it a measure of relief was a very Irish description of it. It came before their Lordships, too, in a very questioneblo shape, for it had no fewer than eight preambles.. This manger animal, with lot eight legs, had crawled as far an the - thitd. reading, and was upon the 'pint of jumping into an Act ,of l'arliament, when a Noble Friend of his who was somewhat curious in ado ka'anch of natural philosophy, happened to look into this Bill, and detect some tifits monstrous proeisions. Their Lordships were, in tact, called upon to pase eight bills, with out knowing what they contained. , The Noble Earl itiruseil; be believed, did not know Must WS llill contained, .anet he had accordingly contented himself with calling it a rutaattra of relief. The first part or the llnl to away the potAti which Justices now. 'bed, of forbearing to give itotettrieset. in cakes where the rates were disputed, unless tin 14111,X.

But the great of jeet of the Bin toss to raise rates in parishes where there were no churches, for the building and repairing of churches iu contiguous Perishes. The effect of this measure would be, to throw a great hurthen uperi Cetholics, to which they wore not at presentliable, k ine convenience of tine PrOLeatianti of a COtlttpliala Iniriall. t k a of the cliaeses in this Itill was of a most insidious and suepi:. onus character. It declared, that all persons who should, be called upon to contribute to the rebuilding or repair of churches in a neighbouriug, . parish, should be admittto to the vestries of that parish. Tine appeared to be an important ion cession; but its a subsequent part of the Bill there was anothei clause, declaring that no person should be allowed to vote, at vestries, who was preVented from voting by the general live of the country, so that. the first provision became (*Pi.; , plettly nugatory, aud wars, in fact, . a .piece of ' 17444 and chicanery as. it respected the Catholic perimhoe-re.' 4.4 trested their I...ordehipe would not pine! a Antasnre r r..4ent leAtil so much danger, and involving so many importai.t coradderii tions, without esurninatiOrl, and as the stintion syn, too fe.s Oil. ranted w WOYt for - ini re-committal, he should ii,..v..t ti,,t t, tit read us third time that day_thtee yells.
