His estimate for a similar distance traversed by the Manchester and Southampton, and taking in the important town of Andover, was only 494,0001. For the 494,000/. the line might be made .from Marlborough to Romsey, a distance of thirty-seven miles and a half, besides saving four miles in distance. The gradients on Lacy's line were lin 80, and those on the Manchester and Southampton 1 in 100, and had better curves and less tunnelling. Went over the line, and rejected it.on account of the better route he selected by Andover, and on account of the opposition of landowner 3. Bethel's line was equally open to objection, as it was longer between those parts, and more expensive on account of the extreme heaviness of the earthworks, and the great length of tunnelling, there being as much as on' the London and Bir • mingham. The Committee adjourned until Monday. GROUP XVIII. The Committee met at twelve, Mr. B. D 01 1 .8311 in the chair. The Committee assembled this day, and, after a brief re• capitulation of the evidence which was given before the Corn• mittee of the House of Commons, they decided that the preamble was proved, alt opposition being withdrawn. There was, however, one clause in the Bill which was to be sub mitted to the consideration of the Earl of Shaftesbury, that it may be made consistent with the regulation of the House of Lords. GROUP D. -YORIESHIRE AND LINCOLNSHIRE COlll IVIUNICATION. The Committee on the Sheffield and Lincolnshire Junction, and the Manchester, Midlands, and Great Grimsby Commu nication, re assembled this morning, at eleven o'clock, when The evidence of Mr. Vignoles, the engineer of the line, was taken, but it varied little from that of the other line, and showed that it was only seven-eighths of a mile longer than its opponent. He went through a long examination and cross examination, the end of which was to show that the gradients on the line were unusually favourable for the country through which it passed, thld that• the viaducts were not only less numerous, but also hardly half the height of those which were formed on the neighbouring lines. He spoke also to the facility of the management of the Company, and stated that there had been such arrangements made as would entirely prevent anything like impediment to the transit of merchandise from London and the west through the whole of this line of communication, while on the other side there were no less than six different Companies to be combined for the accomplishment of one object. The long cross- examination which this gentleman went through seemed in no way to affect his evidence. Mr. Hawkshaw, who appeared in the place of Mr. Braith waite, who is engaged to construct the line, but who is con fined by illness, confirmed the prinCipal points adduced by Mr. Vignoles. Mr. BAINES, Q.C., then addressed their Lord,hips at con siderable length, rerapitulating the chief facts which had been adduced by the witnesses, dwelling particularly on the assent of the noblemen and men of large property, who were assentients to the line of the Sheffield and Lincolnshire Junc tion Company. At the close of his address the room was cleared, and on the re-admission of parties, The CHAIRMAN stated that the Committee had decided in favour of the Sheffield and Lincolnshire line, and against its opponent; but full justice was to be done to the opposing landowners.

The Committee met at the usual hour. MANCHESTER AND SOUTHAMPTON. LONDON, TX.EUTM:73IIr, AND BATH. Mr. MERREWETHER stated to the Committee that the pro • moters had closed their evidence, and now left the case with the Committee; but after tho very plain intimation they had had from the Committee, they expected nothing else than that the Bill should be negatived, and his clients now assented that it should be so. The CILS.IRMAN said it was for the promoters themselves to withdraw their Bill or to continue their evidence before the Committee, as they chose. Mr. MERREWETIIER said they had closed their case, and now asked for the decision of the Committee, but with no sanguine hope that the preamble of the Bill would be passed. The CHAIRMAN wished to know of Sergeant Wrangham, what course it was meant to pursue with regard to the other Bills before the Committee, as in ordinary . circumstances the Committee would not have given any decision until they had the evidence given on the other schemer. But he begged it distinctly to be understood, that whatever arrangement might have been come to between the present company and the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth, the. Committee would not in any way be guided or influenced by that arrangement. Although this opposition was withdrawn, the Committee would cer tainly not pass the other as an unopposed Bill. Sergeant WRANGIIAM said that an arrangement had been come to between the two compani"the London, Newbury, and Bath, and the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth, in consequence of what had fallen from the Corkmiltee, .who. as a body, had suggested an arrangement betwtcm them., no did not mean to - imply that the Committee had committed themselves as parties to any arrangement, but he said an arrangement had been come to, based on the intimations of the Committee, and that his clients withdrew their opposition in consequence. The Committee gave no decision, and proceeded to hear evidence in the case of the WILTS, SOMERSET, AND WEYMOUTH. Mr. Austin, Mr. Denison, and Mr. Slade, are retained for the promoters of the line, and Mr. Hill, Q.C., Mr. Cockburn, Q.C., and Mr. Merrewether, appear against it, on petitions from the South-Western Railway, the Southampton and Dircheiter Railway, the London, Salisbury, and Yeovil Railway, from the inhabitants of Wareham, Andover, Salis bury,, and , Exeter, and from Mr. F. T. Egerton. Mr. DENISON, in 'opening the merits of the schemes, said the Bill was for extensions and deviations on the Wilts, Somerset, , and Weymouth line, which was passed last year." The first was the Weymouth Quay Extension, a rail 7 1 , 2 furlongs in length, carrying down the terminus from Weymouth to Weymouth Harbour; it was proposed in consequence of a requst from the merchants of the place, and was unopposed, The second was the Herringstone Deviations, near Dorchester, ex tending four miles and 12 chains, and intended for the accommodation of landowners; it was unopposed. The third was the Frome Deviation, by which it was intended to carry the rail of the main line nearer that town than it was at present, being six miles and 25 chains long. The fourth was the Redstock Branch, a quarter of a mile in length, and was unopposed. The fifth was the Bishopstoke Junction to Salisbury, effecting a junc tion between the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth line at Salisbury, and the Great Western at Bishopstoke, by which the Bristol and Bath people could be conveyed down to Southampton. It was a junction advised by the Board of Trade in their report of last year, and was two miles five furlongs long. The sixth was the Laycock deviation for the accommodation of landowners, and the Corsham extension, to effect a junction with the Great Western. The seventh was the Bath branch, between Bradford and Bath, which had been :projected after the company had been memorialised to that effect by the towns in the neighbourhood, and in consequence of the recommendation of the Board of Trace, who had also been memorialised on the subject. The eighth was the De vizes branch, which was intended to run nearly due west from that town, and join the main line near Bradford, by which a more direct communication would be opened be tween Devizes, and Bradford, and Bath, the old branch to near Miltsham being abandoned for this. The estimate for these branches, in addition to the capital of the existing line, was 240,0001. Mr. Brunel, the engineer of the line, was called, and evi dence having been heard, the room was ordered to be cleared. The Committee, after consulting, intimated that the pre amble of the Bill was proved for all the branches, except for that between Bishopstoke and Salisbury, which was not passed ; and that the prearOble of the London, Newbury, and Bath Bill was not proved. ThecCommittee then went through the clauses of the Bill, and adjourned. This concludes the group. GROUP XXXVIII. The Committee met at twelve; Mr. Acton in the chair. WEST SIDING UNION (No. IL) Evidence was continued this morning in favour of the line. Mr. Horn, at the conclusion of the case for the promoters, addressed the Committee against the project on behalf of the Huddersfield and Manchester (Bradford branch). The room was ordered to be cleared. The CHAIRMAN informed parties on their re-admission that be decision of the Committee was, that the preamble of the We , t Riding Union (No. 2) Bill was proved, and that of the Huddersfield and Manchester (Bradford branch) Bill was not proved. The Committee having gone through such clauses of 'the West Riding Bill as were unopposed, adjourned till to-morrow at twelve. GROUP XLVIII. THE TAMP VALE. The Committee un this Group met at twelve to-day, Mr. Aldam, chairman. ➢lr. Sergeant WRANGilinu opened the case for the preamble of the above Bill. After a brief address, the Learned Ser geant called witnesses in support of the merits of the line. The opposition to the Bill is expected to be arranged. Contents :—How to ensure perfect digestin, tranquil feelings, a good night's rest, a clear head, and a contented mind. By an ob servance of the instructions herein contained, the feeble, the ner vously delicate, even to the most shattered constitution, may acquire the greatest amount of ph;sical happiness, and reach in health the full• period of life allotted to man. " How we sho , ild live—what eat, what drink, what shun, To reach in health foil threescore Years and ten." Mr. Tew, who had been a contractor at Southampton, and Captain Bowyer, gave evidence in favour of the opposition of Mr. Roe—namely, that the railway would run in front of his wharf, and that it would cut off access to his " water frontage." The last witness considered that a better termi • nos than the one proposed might be made at King John's Pond, because it would serve both railways, and because in terference with the pier and quays would be obviated. He admitted, however, that he was a shareholder in the South- Western. Mr. Canning, a tenant of property in Ogborne St. George, in vk iltshire, stated that the line would intersect it for three miles, and interfere with its best parts, and that a better line might be obtained by a slight deviation. Mr. Bryce, boat-builder, and tenant of the West Quay, at Southampton, stated that the line would cut off a portion of the quay, and injure the ferry. In his cross-examination he stated the West Quay was in a ruinous condition—that a stranger would not,on first seeing it, think that it was a quay at all, and that the ferry-boats started every quarter of an hour. Mr. SMITH said he stated in his address to the Committee the other day, that there would be a considerable saving by adopting the deviation line. What he meant to say was this, that the difference of saving would be upon the land, and not upon the works. As Mr. Brunel considered that the accuracy of the sections prepared under his direction of the Oxford and Rugby was challenged, he had investigated them, and not only found that they were strictly correct, but that the sections prepared by the engineers of the Manchester and Southampton were incor rect in the levels, and that the estimate ought to be increased to the extent of 2000/. After some discussion, The CHAIRMAN said, as the sections had already been before two Committees—the Committee on Petitions and the present Committee, and as the opponents of the line had cross-examined the witnesses at great length with re spect to them, and their accuracy not disputed, the Commit tee would not further investigate them. They wished to have the accuracy of the sections of the deviated line by Ludgers-hall verified, which Mr. Locke did in a very few words. Mr. Meek, Mr. Locke's assistant, stated that the sections of that deviation were perfectly correct. This closed the case on the part of the landowners. Mr. ALEXANDER said he was most unwilling to interfere with the arrangements or duties of any Hon. Member—(the Chairman stated a few days ago that he should be absent on Thursday and Friday, in order to fulfil his engagements as a chairman of the Quarter Sessions)—but unless the case on all sides was closed on Friday they would be unable to get their Bill into the House of Lords this session. The CHAIRMAN, after consulting the other members of the Committee, said the Committee darirg the whole of the. period they had sat had felt this difficulty; that the evidence iu.cluced before them proceeded from parties interested either in the Great Western or South-Western Railways. Now what they wished was, that some impartial person, uncon nected with either of these lines, should be brought before them, to state that the line was required by the wants of the district throwill which it was proposed to traverse. The Counsel for the promoters of the line appeared em barrassed at this proposition, and declared that they knew not where to obtain more impartial evidence than that they had adduced. After some conversation as to what course the parties and the Committee should adopt, The CHAIRMAN said the Committee would require some time to go over the evidence and to come to their decision ; therefore it would be impossible to finish the case and give their decision by Friday. Other members of the Committee said it would be also necessary to consult the Board of Trade. Mr. Sergeant WRANGIIAM applied to the Committee to sit on Saturday, on which day both himself and Mr. Hill would commence and finish their address. The CHAIRMAN said the members of the Committee had made arrangements which precluded their sitting on that These interesting little volumes, although tearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, for they tell of matters every living crea ture able to understan I ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of' relief, it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our owu organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereot in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all, by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the lili e advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation if our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mini as well as the body.may be exulted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations.

Lascelles (chairman ), the Earl of Arundel and Surrey, Mr. R. Clayton, and Captain Dalrymple. IMMINGHAM, WOLITERHAIVEPTON , AND DUDLEY. Mr. M'Lean, the engineer of the line, gave the remainder of his evidence this morning as to the general description of the line. The worst gradient on the line, he said, was one in 100. The length of the first tunnel was 605 yards, and of the second 340 yards; but in these there would not be required any peculiar system of ventilation, The amount of, the estimated cost of the line was 61 8, 4181 . The expense of working the line would be 401. per cent. on the gross receipts, and on the whole he believed that it would be worked with advantage to the shareholders and the public. Mr. Saunders gave the formal proofs required by the House on the 30th of April last. Mr. Kershaw gave an account of the number of shares subscribed for, &c. In reply to Mr. Laing, Mr. COCKBURN, Q.C., said that his clients were not pre pared to acquiesce in the arrangements made on the previous day, unless the party whom Mr. Laing represented consented to abandon the Stour Valley. Mr. LAING said his clients would not not do any such thing. Mr. COCKBURN—Then we cannot acquiesce in the arrange ment, and will oppose you to the utmost. The preamble of the Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and Dudley Bill (as altered) was eventually declared ;o be proved.

Sir WALTER JAMES regretted that the promoters had not called the attention of the Committee to the difficulty in which they would be placed if the Committee did not come to an earlier decision. Mr. ALEXANDER said they fully expected that the Com mittee would have been enabled to give their decision on Sa turday. It Wsd then ilrranged that the promoters should call evi dence to-day in support of the pase t and in opposition to the case of their opponents. An objection wax, taken by Mr. Hill against any evidence being adduced with respect to Lacy's line ; but the Committee considered that the evidence ought not to be limited. Mr. Bidder was then celed and examined by Mr. ALpix- ANDER, with respect to the line called Lapy's line, which was not proceeded with, and which was proposed to start from Salisbury, and to traverse after Marlborough as nearly as possible the route of the Manchester and Southampton. He had estimated the cost of Lacy's line from Salisbury to MailbOough, ii distance of 27 miles, including three miles and a half to be used at Salisbury by the Salisbury and Basingstoke line, if it received the sanction of Parliament, 431 d echisive of land and stations ? at 494,0001.. as eoitipaied wiph MQ .

For some time back considerable discussion has taken place am& ingst the Magistrates of the county of Middle sex, asset abled in Quarter Sessions, upon the subject of the addititonal Lunatic Asylum proposed to be erected at Hanwell. The Court having determined upon erecting the new edifice in the vicinage of the present asylum, and actually purchased a piece of ground for that purpose, plans and elevations of the proposed asylum were pre pared and transmitted to the Metropolitan Commis sioners in Lunacy, who had subsequently taken these propositions into their consideration, and made their re port thereon, signed by Lord Ashley, to Secretary Sir Jam( s Graham, in which they totally disapprove of the proposed plan, with reference to the building of the new asylum at Hanwell, and express it as their opinion that the new edifice should be built as near as may be to the centre or mass of the population of the county of Mid dlesex. The whole of the correspondence, together with dr.) special report of the Committee of Visitors of the County Lunatic Asylum, were laid before the Court on the last county day, when they were ordered to be printed and circulated ; and as they contain some valua ble information respecting the increasing wants of the county, we subjoin the following extracts from the re port from the Commissioners in Lunacy to Sir James Graham, upon proposal, &c., for erection of an addi tional Lunatic Asylum for the County of Middlesex, at Hanwell " It appears from the documents transmitted to us, that the Committee of Visitors propose to erect a new (or second) asylum at Haswell, at the distance of 100 feet only from the present asylum for the reception of 1,010 pauper lunatics, and to male various alterations in the existing offices, with the view of rendering them applicable both to the present asylum and to the asylum proposed to be erected. And it is estimated that the cost of the new asylum will not exceed 85,0001. " Suppasing Hanwell to be the most convenient place for a lunatic asylum as regards the western division of the county (a fact, however, not established), it is ob viously exceedingly inconvenient as regards the eastern division. Thera can be no doubt, we apprehend, but that an asylum built tit so distant "ia,place as rlanwell (Instead of being near the metropolis, more especially the eastern part thereof,) must greatly increase the ex pense and difficulty of transferring pauper lunatics to and from the eastern parishes and unions; that it must add to the inconvenience, and lessen the frequency of the visits of parishes officers ; and must, in effect, almost wholly preclude the poorer friends of the patients froth visiting them at any time during their confine ment. " We are satisfied that the asylum atlia.nwell at present contains more patients than it is capable of ac commodating properly, and more than should be en trusted to one superintending or controlling power. It is the opinion of every medical man of eminence, conver sant with the subject, and, amongst others, of Dr. Con Ally himself (the visiting physician, and, until lately, the superintendent of the Hanwell Asylum),lthat not more than 400 patients should be assembled in any one curative establishment for lunatics; and the Hanwell Asylum already contains nearly 1,000 patients. " It is desirrble, we think, on this account, that there should be no further congregation of lunatic patients at, or near, Hamwell. "In regard to the question of expense, adverted to by the justices in their published address, we , consider:the sum of 85,0001. as far too large for the objects proposed to be accomplished by the outlay. And we are disposed to think that several of the items specified in the address as savings, are peculiar, or unnecessary instances of ex pense ; and that any saving reckoned upon by the jus tices, will be more than counterbalanced by the erection of a new asylum, at a moderate and reasonable cost. "A reason for placing a new asylum in the eastern division of the county, lies in the facility with which the patients might in such case be visited by their friends. It is a great source of comfort to a large pro portion of persons afflicted by mental disorders to receive occasional visits from their relations and friends. These friends and relations belong for the most part to the poorer classes of society, and are so little able to spare either time or money, that to erect an asylum on a site so remote as Hanwell is from a great portion of the county of Middlesex, would in effect deprive a great pro portion of the patients altogether from the comforts they are fairly entitled to receive." PROTEST AGAINST THE THIRD READING OF A BILL «TO AMEND THE LAWS RELATING TO THE IMPORTATION OF CORN.' DISSENTIENT, Because the Bill for repealing the corn-laws is not ac companied, as in justice it ought to have been, by the follow measures, viz. : 1. The entire and immediate repeal of all the taxes which fall directly upon land—the land tax, the malt tax, and the hop duty. 2. The equalisation of all the rates of which the occupiers of land bear at present an unfair and' undue proportion—the poor rates, the highway rates, and the county rates. 3. An alteration of the Tithe Commutation Act, which can no longer be just or applicable. 4. A legislative enactment authorising all persons who hold leases of land for unexpired terms of years to surrender them on giving six months' notice before, any of the usual days of payment. 5. A legislative enactment directing the payment stipu lated in every contract to be reduced according to the pro portion which the average price of wheat, at the time of making such payment, bears to its average price at the time that such contract was formed, so that such payment may be of the same value as w'as originally intended and agreed to by the parties. 6. A legislative enactment authorising the cultivation of tobacco, and the preparation of sugar from beetroot or other vegetables, and exempting the said tobacco and sugar from the payment of any duty. 7. The entire and immediate repeal of those taxes which aro imposed upon articles of general consumption, of the Excise duty on soap, and of the Customs' duties on sugar and coffee, the produce of British colonies, and on those sorts of tea and tobacco which are used by the labouring classes.

LOYAL UNITED FRIENDS.—OR Monday last the 24th anniversary of this highly-respectable body of men was cele brated at the Highbury Barn Tavern, Islington, on which occasion above 500 friends partook of a dinner, served up in Mr. Hinton's proverbial good style. General Secretary Spiers officiated as chairman, and was supported by several influential past officers and distinguished members of the order. After the cloth had been drawn the chairman, in a short speech, proposed The Queen," which was drunk amid much applause, as was also " Prince Albert, and the rest of the Royal Family." "God save the Queen" was sung in ex cellent style, the company joining in the chorus with great enthusiasm ; after which the chairman, in a few appropriate words, gave " Success to the order of Loyal United Friends :" this toast was received with raptures of applause ; after which, P. P, Booby, of the No. 8 Lodge, sang a song, of his own composition, to the tune of the " Old English Gentle man," characteristic of the order. P. P. Hill, of the No. 16 Lodge, then proposed—" Prosperity to the Gift Funds of the order ;" as did P. P. Beeby, " The Pension and Friend-in need Funds." Both toasts were received with great ap plause. S. P. Huntley, in a complimentary speech, gave " The health of the chairman," which was responded to with every demonstration of respect, and acknowledged by General Secretary Spiers, in a neat speech. Secretary Burgess, of the No. 15 Lodge, proposed the health of Special President Nuntley, who, he stated, 'was justly eminent for his social and other distinguishing qualities, and who was an ornament to the order. This toast was well received, as was that of the stewards, also proposed by Secretary Burgess. The latter was acknowledged by P. Edmunds, of the No. 7 Lode. The last toast was "The Ladies," given from the chair; after which the company adjourned to the pleasure-grounds of this celebrated place of festive enjoyment. At nine o'clock a ball commenced, and was attended by a large body of the members and their fair companions, which was kept up to a late hour, when the company broke up, highly delighted with the enjoyments of the day. t:LORD FRANCIS EGER:M.—IR the Gazette of Tuesday evening it will be seen that his Lordship has been elevated to the peerage by the title of the Earl of Ellesmere and Vis count Brackley. Both those titles had belonged to the Egerton family, in the house of Bridgewater, for some cen turies descendants of the celebrated and virtuous Sir Thomas Egerton, whom Queen Elizabeth made her Lord Keeper, and conferred other hvours on, for his distinguished abili ties, particularly in thesuppression of the conspiracy of the Earl of Essex. On the accession of James I. he enjoyed the favour of that Sovereign, by whom, in 1603, he was created Earl of Ellesmere, and subsequently, in 1616, he was further raised to the dignity of Viscount Brackley, and the King further intended to have conferred an earldom on him, but he died before the patent was made out. The earldom was, however, immediattly conferred upon his son, Vis count Brackley, the munificent patron of Milton, who wrote his "Comus" expressly for the Earl when Lord Presi dent of the Principality, who had it performed by his family at Ludlow Castle, in Wales. The viscounty and barony thus became merged in the superior title of Earl of Bridgewater, and were enjoyed in direct succes sion until the death of Francis Henry Egerton, eighth and last Earl and ninth Viscount Brackley, and Baron Ellesmere, who died in February, 1829, when those titles became ex tinct. It is generally known that Lord Francis Egerton. then Lord Francis Leveson Gower, nephew of the Earl, his valuable a large portion of his extensive estates , as well as valuable collection of paintings, familiar .to ali connoisseurs of the fine arts as the Bridgewater cone wn.ln 1833 he as sumed the name of Egerton, !'" of 's patronymic Leve son Gower. In 1820 his Lordship was returned to the House o le f t s ch u i n n d g er e i 3, n a d u t d wh ill ich lB h 2 e 6 co w n a - s o el f e C ct o e m d ni to on re s Pl as 'ese M nt em t he was returned for the southern division of tinged to sit fo division 18°0- In 1535 Laßßagbip, in conjunction with the b b e e r c o f u o o n r t y B Hon.

The Noble Lord was offered a high appointme n t by Si r R o b er t Peel when he cameinto caw in 1841, but declined the honour from his unsettled state of health. MUTINOUS CONDUCT AT CHATHAM BARRACKS.— On Saturday night, between eleven and twelve o'clock, Chat ham Barracks became a scene of riot, which for a time ap peared likely to lead to serious results. Detachments of various corps, it appear; were at the time held in readiness to march to Gravesend on Monday to embark for India, and some of their comrades being placed in confinement for breach of military discipline, a number of men of the 98th Regiment united for the avowed purpose of liberating them, to effect which, they first commenced by an attack on the gnard, removing the soldiers from their posts, overturning the sentry boxes, bursting open the doors and wrenching off the iron bars of the black hole, and liberating the prisoners. At this utage of the proceedings the most serious conse quences were apprehended, a detachment was called out, and with muskets loaded with ball proceeded to the scene of riot. After some resistance the ringleaders were secured, and being put In confinement, order was speedily, restored. One sergeant received very serious injury in the affray from a violent blow on the head. On Monday morning, when the detachments marched to Gravesend, thirteen of the rioters, handcuffed, accompanied them. MUNIFICENT BEQUEST,—The late Miss Lucy Harmer has bequeathed the sum of 1,0001. to the Philanthropic As 4ociatiou for the Reformation of Juvenile Offenders. THAMES GRAND REGATTA. SECOND DAY. Many heavy engagements depended upon the issue of Tuesday's races-; there were no less than twelve upon the list, and ut the number eight were first rate. It was the grand day. or one of them ; for so brilliant were the entries that it would have been impos.•ible, had the committee of manage 'tient wished it—and their desire has invariably been not only to arrange the sport so as to afford each respective crew or individual member a lair chance of success, but to afford as much gratification as possible to the public—to have dished up less than two great aquatic banquets. Of these, however, we must give precedence in weight to that of yesterday. Upon a moderate calculation, there were at least 50,000 persons present. The Bishop of London had given permis sion for resnectable persons to enter his extensive grounds on the Middlesex side of Putney-bridge. The towing-path on the Surrey shore along the course, a mile and a halt at least in distance, was almost impassable, whilst the Thames was covered with pleasure-boats filled with company, who partook of the gratification incident to this great national pastime. The Maria Wood state barge was moored a few yards below the regatta committee boat, and at three o'clock the Lord Mayor, accompanied by the Sheriffs and civic authori ties, took their seats on board of her. Shortly afterwards his Highness Ibrahim Pacha and suite arrives, and were entertained on board the state barge. The regatta com mittee waited upon him with the magnificent prizes for the various victors, aral his Highness expressed his admiration of them. After witnessing the first three races ; he left in the Lord Mayor's state blot, to join the party given at the Duke of Nerthumbzrland's, Sion-house. He appeared much pleased with the rowing, and was received' throughout the aquatic course with loud cheers. The Vice-Chancellor en tertained a distinguished party at his seat on the banks oi the Thames at Fulham, and some of the houses were graced with fashionable company..

Lambeth crew (green) Hammersmith crew (pink) Diilibank crew (light blue). Endeavour crew (black). It was a splendid race. Green, pink, and blue dashed oft together, green showing for about ten seccnds in slight ad vance, and then they fell into as even a line as at the moment of starting. Blue then made a spirt, and went out in ad vance, and off Craven cottage had cleared their boat of pink altogether, and gave symptoms also of beginning to shake green off. Green then put on a fine spirt, and went right oar and oar into them, and pink following suit, the three boats all became level again at the Crab-tree, and made, as it night be termed, a fresh start for the race. The exer tion had, however, found out some of their " weak points ;" but pink looked most like those in a condition to. win. They continued oar and oar up to Hammersmith bridge, where green got a quarter of a length ahead, aziA, notwithstanding the exertions of their opponents, never lost it. SECOND HEAT. Wandsworth crew (ye110w)............ Chelsea crew (purple) The ..t! ars crew (stripe). "I ; ill if I Can" (red).

STRANGERS' PRIZE OF 50 SOVS., OPEN TO ALL THE WORLD, FOR FOUR-OARED BOATS. Oxford watermen (purple) Bristol crew (red) 2 Eton crew (light blue). Eton took the lead, the Oxford boat was next, the Bristol crew rowing very smartly and beautifully between the pair.

Newell, who defeated Clasper at Newcastle-upon-Tyne last week, went away with the lead, and did as he liked with them throughout. Pocock, who took the second place at starting, and kept it throughout, played much such another game with Phels, who really rowed very bard throughout. THE GRAND CHALLENGE CIA', FOR EIGHT-OAR BOATS.

Punrusm.—Maclaren and Jones, both heroes of the steel and cleaver, met on Tuesday, according to articles, to settle an old grudge, and decide the winner of 40 soya., duly staked on their behalf. The fixture was Horley, 25/ 1 miles on the Brighton rail, and thither, by the mine o'clock train, a pretty tolerable sprinkling of the partizans of both men were steamed. Little time was lost, and shortly after eleven, " Auld Tom Oliver" having made the necessary arrange ments, M'Laren threw his cap into the ring ; Jones soon followed suit, and at the half-hour before noon the men crossed hands, and were quickly at work. Jones, despite a slight visit to his olfactory organ, had it his own way from the first, and had be possessed more ring talent, and relied less on the tapping, left hand lead-off of the sparring school, the affair must have been very much shortened in its dura tion ; as it was, after a game but unskilful struggle of one hour and thirty-five minutes, during which fifty rounds were contested, Dl'Laren was compelled to cry " Hold, enough." Jones, the victor, has much to learn ; he had the game in his own hands, but certainly did not know bow to play it. He left off with merely a slight tumefaction of the lip, and little damage to his left hand. The men were again en route between three and four, and all hands reached the " long village" in safety at an early hour, after a well - con decte4 orderly, and uninterrupted mill, the losing man with . nt other damage but that of the temporary disarrangement' or the symmettfof his countenance. THE EMIGRANT'S LIFE. The following article is extracted from an interesting Letter which appeared in last week's Stamford lifer- cury :-- " Deerfield Cottage, Rattons Prairie, March 24, 1846. "We have had rather a long winter here, and much more severe than the preceding one: cold weather pre vailed from the last week in November to the first of this month, with a great deal of snow : it is now mo. derate. " I will now endeavour to give you a brief sketch of the manners and customs of this people, whose social arrangements are so different to yours. It is very frequently the case that the settler selects his location in the midst of the unbroken forest, though there are thousands of miles of rich prairie altogether unencumbered with trees : he does so on account of the facility thus afforded him in timber fir building, fencing. and firewood, by which he is saved a great deal of labour. The settler (particularlarly if a Yanked) is generally very expert with the axe, and commences his clearing by cutting down such trees as are most proper for building his house, which in most cases con sists only of one room for all purposes, built of square logs piled one upon another, and often without a win dow ; he consoles himself by promising that in a few years he will build himself a better one, though he fre quently spends the whole of his life in this, unless, in. deed, his family become large ; in which event he con structs another room similar to the one already de scribed. In such a situation, you may conceive how slow his progress must be ; yet he soon contrives to break up land sufficient to raise corn for the Use of his family. He has one great advantage in being able to keep his stock of every desoription on the lands re maining unenclosed around him: his hogs will thrive well on the acorns, nuts, and roots, to be found in the woods; and he does not pen them up till he wishes to fatten them in the fall of the year. He generally plants an orchard, which soon becomes useful and pro duces him plenty of peaches in the course of three or four years from the time of planting; while these are coming to maturity, he grows melons of several kinds, which do extremely well here, and are very nice and cooling in the hot weather. The apples in this country are in great variety, and, generally speaking , far supe rior in size and flavour to those of England. The settler keeps cows, poultry, one or more horses (for go where he may he invariably rides), and a small flick of sheep, the wool from which his wife spins, dyes, and in many cases weaves and manufactures into clothing for the whole family; this article, which is generally dyed blue, makes up into very neat dresses, and I assure you the fitting of these garments reflects great credit on the fair artiste,' whose life is by no means a sinecure. " In the old country, from the crowded state of many of the trades and professions, competition makes it diffi cult for a new beginner to succeed ; business will, no doubt, be considerably depressed until the corn-law question is settled : the farmers will be for a time panic struck, and have as little work done as pod sible ; but this will right itself in the course of a short time. " As to the advisibility of persons coming out to this country, it entirely depends upon circumstances : I believe this to be a locality in which, in point of money, few men get rich ; but it is certainly one in which-no industrious sober man need fear to obtain a livelihood : nevertheless, I speak from experience when I say, let all those who have a comfortable home, and acquire a good living, with a reasonable prospect of continuing to do so, be content to remain where they are. It is a very easy thing to break up a home, but often difficult to establish a better : early associations never fail to crowd upon us : we often think of our old and far distant home, and more, much more than all, of those kind and dear friends from whom we are separated perhaps for ever. The class of persons to whom this country offers the most decided advantages is the one whose early life has been devoted to the cultivation of land ; the young agri cultural labourer in England, though he bo ever so in dustrious and frugal, if he marries and has a family, with all his striving, can scarcely keep himself above pauperism ; he could manage a little land, but that is not to be got ; and it is a thousand to one if ever he gets to occupy an acre. He must work, always work, for a master, and think himself fortunate that he can be so employed : he must sometimes submit to the most de grading servility, and be studiously careful not to - offend even by accident: in short, he must be the patient drudge toiling on through life with scarcely a hope of bettering his condition. Here the case is widely different; if em ployed as a labourer, his employer treats him as an rclual ; he always takes his meals at the same table with his master, and is treated with respect and cour tesy ; his wages too he can spend more to the advantage of his family, and as soon as he wishes to commence farming on his own account he finds but little diffi culty respecting land, for he can get here, at a low rent, as much he wishes; or if he be able to purchase, he has plenty of choice : he may thus acquire a good living, with something more in time , besides having the plea sure of seeing a good prospect for his children around him, " With respect to the expense incurred in coming out here, it is difficult to say what it amounts to; much de pends upon the distance the emigrant may have to travel in the country after he has crossed the ocean: unex pected delays will sometimes occur, which occasion much trouble, expense, and vexation. I think the cost from first to last might be set clown at about ten pounds per individual ; for though it cost me considerably more, I hare no doubt tilers Ekro scale who perform the journey for less, " The natural productions of this climate in the way of wild fruit are the vine, which flourishes here in the greatest luxuriance, bearing grapes of excellent flavour ; wild plums are also found in the woods. I urn sorry to add that currants and gooseberries do not thrive well I here: the summer I think is too hot for them." NEW ENGINE.—We hear that a new engine, on Mr Crompton's principle, with seven feet driving wheels and some 1,000 squire feet of heating surface, is building for the narrow gauge by the Messrs. Rennie.
