MARQUIS OF LONDONDERRY AND THE AGRICULTURAL INTEREST. At the annual dinner given by the Marquis of Lon donderry to his tenantry in the county of Durham, on Thursday last, his Lordship, in one of his addresses to the assemblage, spoke as follows: — He must now call their attention to what he had stated the last time they had met in that place. He had then told them that he apprehended a great change in the agricultural arrangements of this country. He told them what had been his opinion for years before—that no Ministry of this country could long stand up against the corn laws. feeling Th e o s f e the were c opinionsountry i nfawv which r of he h a repeal d t o sta stated fthe his tenantryinlrela ulnfdsley waveanyree that sag t o. At their meet ing ast ye year he was the affairs of the country were in as p ros p erous a state as they could pos sibly be in. Commerce, agriculture, and finance were all prosperous, and there then seemed no call on the part of any for any national change. Shortly afterwards, how ever, there was issued from Edinburgh, by an individual now a minister of the Crown, a letter which set the coun try in a state of convulsion. That letter had such an effect that the minister of the day thought it necessary to take measures in consequence of the views then stated. But it must be remembered that all great politicians— public men of both parties—had previously declared their belief of the absolute necessity of a repeal or modifica tion of the corn laws.—(Hear.) And as coming events cast their shadows before, it was almost certain that Lord John Russell's launching of that epistle would be the signal of some corresponding answer from the minister of the day. It was unnecessary to go into detail of the measure which was carried in consequence. He did not mean to say that the arrangement was the most satisfac tory and agreeable to that party which had always strongly supported and assisted the Conservative cause, and placed Sir Robert Peel at the head of it. He deeply lamented—as he was sure they would all do—that there had been a great deal of violent language, and a great deal of what he would not call personal abuse, but some thing very like it. A great deal of exaggeration had also been indulged in ; but they were there as tenant farmers to judge for themselves of what had passed (Cheers.) They had seen the much dreaded measure carried into law. It was still in a state of trial, and they had, up to this time, no right to say anything detrimen tal of that individual who had carried that measure into effect. He much regretted the course which had been taken by the agricultural Protectionists, as they called themselves, in attacking Sir Robert Peel. Now he (Lord Londonderry) had considered the question as closely as he could—indeed, as lie considered every question which , came before him as a legislator—and he bad come to the conclusion, Sir Robert Peel was the Minister of . the country, and not of a party. Thoug hha h v ' m 3 holding ? en r hi s ing in a great measure to tha t party for becomeoffice, a s n t d ill lr h e e lan h d a , d a iidNvasbound Minist to r a for ct England, thelan d, Scot land, general and not for party benefit. Those w ho stood out so much e for agricultural protection were, after all, but a portionof the great landed proprietors. Th e Duke of Rich mond, Lord G. Beutinck, and some great southern pro prietors, had been opposed to the repeal of the corn laws, But look had ca ll e d the farmers together to oppo se it. look on the other hand. Look to the north. The Duke of Northumberland, the Duke of Buccleuch, and the No ble Lord present (the Marquis of Westminster) were divided in opinion from the others on the question of a repeal of the corn laws. But there was another consi deration. Notwithstanding the repeal of the corn laws, times had never been more prosperous with the farmers. Up to the last market day, prices had continued to ad • vance; and the farmers were generally in a much better condition than they were last year. He had him - elf had a proof of it, which was interesting to himself, that day, for out of his whole tenantry both on the northern and southern estates, there were but two had left any arrears, and of these two one was about to leave.—(Loud iwsha this , se h m eo o cr s a t ul os s ew a t ie i tr s ofsadhcot bwoyreydt the es o or e h fp i a m era . cheers.) That mu s t b e most grat i fy i ng to them, as it d f r l 00 l e thef r w e a n act corn h r nb a o p ipnyg laws,t d o t na s h t e a i nr t e e. was no prospect of it, whilst he knew in many instances they had been increased. These matters ha a d rty mcfor ths tT. country,na tel y c butus e d a he t split rus te di that atth it e ultimately Conservative wou p ld be i healed l up. These were the opinions which he himself enter• tained of the present position of the agricultural i n t eres t, agre e and he trusted th e y would with him—that they would be unanimous, and all work together.—(Cheers.) CXSAB BOR GIL—In the new hi s t or i ca l romance, " Caesar Borgia," by the popular author of " White friars," the characters introduced are such as the gene ral reader is sure to desire to know, from their promi nent position in the history of the eventful times in which they flourished. First among them is the famous Pope Alexander VI., with his two equally celebrated children, Lucretia and Caesar Borgia—then comes the illustrious Medici, the future Leo X.—the great Alfonso of Este, and ancestor of our own Royal Line --the oft quoted classic among diplomatists, Machiavelli—th e immortal poet, Ariosto, andithe notorious satirist, Pas chino. Those characters that are purely im ag i nary, will be found entitled to equal consideration, especially the Jewish female apothecaries of the Ghetto at Rome —the wizard Dom Sabbat—the simple-minded priest Fra Bicco c co— a nd the ruffian Castellain Migueloto, which are drawn with singular power and originality. The author h as ev ide n tly lavished the best qualities of his imagination on this admirable subject ; and the work will d ou btl ess b e cons id ere d to exceed in talent and interest either of his previous production!. Tins POTATO DISEASE.—Baron Liebig imagines the essence of the disease to consist in the conversion of the albumen, a usual constituent of healthy potatoes, into ca se i ne , a pr i nciple which, by its great instability of composition. is supposed to cause the potato to pu trify rapidly.—Th e Plough.

LO NDON FRIENDLY INSTITU- TION The twenty-Accord annual general meeting of this L society w a a n s d h esl Scientific e l n a t s i fi t e night insti tu in t i 0 n th , e A C I d i t e y rsg o a f t e l' °- s t n r d e e o t n . .T. Masterman, Esq., one of the Members for the City, presided, supported by Mr. Alderman and Sheriff 1 Challis. The CHAIRMAN briefly opened the proceedings, by callinge upon TSECRETARY to read the annual report, which commenced by congratulating the members upon the fact that the directors had to repeat the satisfactory statements of former years. Notwithstanding the pre valence of various afiections consequent upon the un usual temperature of the past season, and the larger payment of benefits, a saving had been realised in the sick fund to a very large extent. The subscriptions dur ing the year had been upwards of 2001. more than was required to meet the current payments, which, added to the interest of the capital invested in this fund, and 1501. transferred from the management fund, made the in crease nearly 5001. The number of deaths being thir teen, of these nine were insured for benefits. The claims on this fund amounted to 1351.; the increases upon' it, including interest, was upwards of 3801. Two additional medical officers had been appointed during the year, one at Burford, Oxon, and the other at Rotherhithe, in con sequence of the necessity for more help of that kind. The report pressed on the members the necessity of limit ing medical districts, as the result already had proved highly satisfactory and advantageous to the members, inasmuch as they meet with more prompt attention, and suffer less inconvenience by a nearer residence to the me dical officer. One member had been excluded from the institution in consequence of having taken relief after having resumed his occupation. The expenses of ma nagement had been kept very far below the receipts, al though, during the year, several e x t ra expenses had been incurred, which are not likely to occur again for some years. The expense of the attendance of directors had remained nearly stationary for fifteen years, although the number of members has in the interval increased nearly threefold, in consequence of the payment to the committee and auditors continuing to be regulated by the original rule, which fixed the sum at Is. for each at tendance. Many ether duties, such as visiting the sick, were imposed on the directors, in addition to their at tendance at the m ee ti ngs , b u t for these no remuneration was given, and the difficnity of faithfully complying with the rule induced the directors to recommend either the appointment of a visitor, or the giving of some compensation to the directors for performing it. The report concluded by adverting to the prosperity of the institution, as shown by the increase of 178 members, and of nearly 9001. during the year, and by pressing earnestly on the members the duty of making known generally the existence of the society, and its peculiar features, and to urge each of them to add at least one more to its numbers, on the consideration that he who induces one to reserve a portion of the fruits of his physical strength, to as suage the sting of affliction, or the cry of the widow, is the positive agent of a moral good. By acting in this way each succeeding year would surpass the present in prosperity. The report was received with great applause. Mr. Alderman CHALLIS moved its adoption. It con tained all the information which such a document ought to contain, at the same time withholding any unneces sary expression of opinion on the part of the directors on subjects not before the meeting. The increase of 2001. in the sick fund was a matter for great congratula tion, especially when he knew that there were many other societies that could tell a very different tale.— (Hear, hear,) It proved that their society was not composed of the halt and the maimed, but that it was supported by men who were disposed to take on them selves their fair share of its burdens. The limitation of the districts of, the medical men seemed to him a great advantage. They were greatly tco large, and it was wrong to expect too much from these important officers. It tended to prevent the society from receiving support which they would otherwise have from medical men, than whom he did not know a more actively benevolent class of the commu nity.—(Hear, hear.) The adoption of smaller districts would, he believed, cause offers of gratuitous assistance to be made to the society, besides the other conveniences to the members themselves, from their greater proximity to the medical officers of the society. It was also mat ter of congratulation that only one member had been excluded. He thought that it was well for the directors of a society not to be too strict in their interpretation or enforcement of the rules relative to exclusion. It was difficult always to draw the line in such cases. Men might be suffering from nervous irritation, the result of long-continued, or even temporary, illness, and nume rous other causes, might make him unwell after the doc tors had reported that there was no longer any disease about him requiring their attendance.—(Hear.) And he would, therefore, always tolerate, and gently exerciee the right of exclusion in all cases, and rather trust to their own judgments than the opinions of professional men on that point.—(Cheers.) Another point was the expenses of management. He had frequently to take the chair at meetings of Odd Fellows and similar societies, and had been much struck with the expense of ribbons, sashes, &c., for the grands, most noble grands, and other grands, of those societies ; and though these parties might not be very grand in themselves as members, they were in one sense—the expense was grand. :It was, therefore, gratifying to him to find that though their business had increased threefold, they were at the same time decreasing their expenses. The worthy Alderman, after briefly noticing other points in the report, and eulogising the directors for their disinterested attention to the affairs of the society, concluded by strongly urging the duty of aiding to increase its numbers. The greater the number the greater the stability of the society, for, as had been remarked, that nothing was so uncertain as death to the individual, nothing was so certain as its average. There was not one present who had not some influence in his own neighbourhood, and who, if he exerted it, could not send up one, two, or three additions to the society. With these views he had great pleasure in moving the adoption of the report.—(Cheers.) Dr. MIILLINDER seconded the motion in a brief address, in which he showed the great advantages which had accrued to the Mutual Clerks' Provident Society by a recent movement for giving greater publicity to its principles and objects. They had greatly added to its numbers, and the same might be done in the London Friendly Institution. He congratulated the meeting on having Alderman Challis present, who, as the repre sentative of Majesty, had the care of crime committed to him. But such meetings as that which he now attended were more important, they promoted prudence and the comfort of families. Theirs was a national ob ject, and intimately connected with the progress of moral good in the country.--(Cheers.) A MEMBER said, with reference 'to :the sum in the balance-sheet for the attendance of directors, he found it amounted to more than the Is. for each attendance, supposing only one meeting a week. How was this? The SECRETARY, in explanation, said the expense of quarterly, special, and audit meetings was included. The CHAIRMAN then put the motion, which was car ried unanimously. The SEcnETARY:then read the balance-sheet, front which it appeared that the income for the year was 3,228/ 6s. 5d., and the expenditure 2,3371. ss. 70., leav ing a balance, invested in the hands of the officers, of 7,809/. 15s. 3-id. The CHAIRMAN said, in proposing this document for the adoption of the meeting, that it would be seen, after all the expenses of the year had been met, there was a balance of 6001. in favour of the society beyond the in terest on the funds invested. This was a most satifae , to: lry state of things. ... The balance-sheet was unanimously , adopted, and scrutineers having been appointed to conduct the election of directors, The CHAIRMAN begged to leave the meeting, as he lived some distance in the country, and the election would occupy:some time. He took a deep interest in the wel fare of such societies; had been highly gratified by the state of their affairs, and, as far as his numerous engage.. tom ai ent d s tpheormm.i_cttetowuodidchdeetw.)ays be happy to attend and On the motion of Dr. 3fULLDTDER, seconded by Alder man CHALLIS, a vote of thanks was given to Mr. Master man, for which the Hon. Gentleman returned thanks. Mr. Alderman CHALLIS was then called to the chair, amidst loud applause, and an interesting conversation took place as to the propriety of an alteration in the rules, by means of which some :objectionable or un healthy professions, at present excluded from participa tion in the benefits, might be admitted. The discussion Ultimately terminated in the understanding that the directors would consider the subject, and that in the meantime the rules gave thorn ample power to try every individual case that came before them on its own merits. Mr. VARLEY moved the thanks of the society to the medical officers. Messrs. BAINIIRIDGZ and TILLEY returned thanks. The CHAIRMAN then declared the result of the ballot for directors ; and after a hearty vote of thanks to Mr. Alderman Challis for his conduct in the chair, and the great interest he had shown in the society, which the Chairman acknowledged in an appropriate speech, the meeting broke up. [ADVERTISEMENT:3 THIRTY-FIVE _ A BAD LEG or YEARS' STANDING CURED BY HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS.— The particulars of this extraordinary case are as follows :—Mr. Jas. Macdonald, a native of Ireland, now residing at No. 7, George-yard, Whitechapel, was discharged from the navy in 1813, in consequence of his leg then having been bad for two years, and pronounced in Plymouth Hospital as incurable. During the former long period he had had the advice of the most skilful surgeons in London, Dublin. and other places. Notwithstanding the dreadful state of the leg and five-and-thirty years of suffering, the limb is now soundly healed by the use of Holloway's Ointment and Pills, which are sold by s 1 dealers in medicines , and at the Proprietor's Establiehment, 2 44 Strand, London.
