Moneys deposited with the Association, for Investment, are exempt from liabilities on account of life contingencies, as well as the expenses of management, which are borne by the Life Depart ment, in consideration of the business brought to it b p y Investment trans actions ; therefore, Depositors enjoy the entire rofits by their capital free from deduction of any kind—an advantage which no other Institution, either public or private, holds forth, or can afford, to its members.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which have produced more misery In Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at an stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated schools of medicine both in this country and in continental Europe. The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few legally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short, every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distinguished medical and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient guarantee that those who may place themselves under his care will, in every instance, meet with that delicate consideration and Inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these cases.

THE COUN TRY MARKETS. BRISTOL, AUG. 19.—The weather is still unsettled and much rain has fallen at intervals since out last.

DUBLIN; THURSDAY.---At 10 o'clock yesterday morning the Lord-Lieutenant, the Countess of Eg lintoun and suite, left the terminus of the Midland Railway at Broadstone by special train for Galway, for the purpose• of visiting the great cattle show. The journey from end to end was accomplished in or about four hours, the train reaching the Galway terminus shortly after 2 o'clock. The Viceregal party was received on the platform by a large con course of the gentry of the town and county, who loudly cheered them. His Lordship then pro ceeded to the hOuse of Mr. Arthur Ireland, at the en trance to the terminus, escorted by a troop of the 3d Dragoon Guards, and accompanied by the local committee of the 'cattle show and some of the rail way directors. There was a large number of the townspeople collected in front of the hotel. Having taken half an hour's rest, his Excellency notified his intention of receiving the addresses which it was in tended to present to him. The first was from the citizens of Galsvay t which was succeeded by those of the town commissioners, the members of the Galway Institution, the cattle show committee, an d o f the county at large, to each of which his Excellency re turned a suitable reply. The Queen's College will be visited this day, when an address from the heads of that excellent institution will be presented. At half-past three o'clock their Excellencies proceeded to visit the show-yard. On appearing in the street a cheer similar to that at their arrival was raised. Their Excellencies were accompanied in their visit round 'the yard by the Duke of Leinster, Lord Clan carty, the High Sheriff of the county, Mr. T. A. Joyce, and several other noblemen and gentlemen. Their Excellencies returned to their residence at five o'clock. GOVERNMENT INVESTIGATION. During the late contest for the representation of Mayo, the stipendiary magistrate (Mr. Kirwan), to whom was entrusted the charge of preserving the Queen's peace, had the indiscretion, to use no harsher to address in his official capacity a letter to the Roman Catholic bishop of the diocese, thanking that right reverend functionary and certain of his subor dinate clergy for • their " heroic" exertions towards -the maintenance of order tit a period of great public excitement. This, considering the position which Mr. Kirwan occupied,. naturally caused some asto nishment ; so much so, indeed, that on the first ap pearance of the letter the Nation newspaper pro-• nounced it to be a hoax. The document, however, was perfectly genuine, and, the attention of the Go vernment having been directed to it by a memorial presented on behalf of the gentry, magistrates, and inhabitants of Ballina, praying that the Lo i rd-Leu tenant would be pleased t o gran t an inquiry upon oath into the charges pr e f erre d aga inst Mr. Kirwan , an answer has been ret urne d b y the Under-Secre tary, stating that the pray er o f th e memorial shall be complied with. The i nvest i gat i on w ill take place im mediately. LORD SHREWSBURY ON JESUITISII. The Dublin Telegraph contains a lengthened report of the " collegiate exercises at Mount M elleray Abbey," in the county o f Waterford, w hi c h took place on Monday l as t. The " Lord Abbot " pre sided, and, in the course o f th e procee di ng s, the Very Rev. Dr. Fogarty, of Li smo r e , read the fol lowin g extract from a letter whi c h h e h a d received from his , friend, the " noble Cath o li c E ar l o f Shrewsbury , ' dated from Palermo, in w hi c h hi s L or dship, speaking of the system of coll eg i ate education, soug ht to be established in opposition to the Catholic system, i l db c u a it l n more averse to it than ever, for it may very . mischief which a system th e A to the academical s to7r — di s n the intellect , adem d I am in a few words in the early page' natu rally lead to all the professing dis cipline of the soul, six centu ries ago.

How different is the system here (Pa lermo)! The Jesuits hav e , and so have other collegiate school of 800 students each. They live with their fami lies and friends, but they are obliged to go every day to mass, and on Sundays to mass, sermon, office of the blessed Virgin, and Catholic instructions► and to go confessor anywhere, but they must bring through a religious retreat of at least eight days gratuitous school nually. Moreover, they are recommended to go to con fession once a month. They may choose their own having been at confession. Besides these, they have a sodality of the. most pious, who are encouraged to land there will be none of these advantages- helps as attend extra religious exercises .

The long-enduring patience of the public has at length been rewarded, and, after a waste of fourteen days, the most exemplary of cor oners deemed that the end s o f justice were satisfied , and yesterday de livered a rather elaborate charg e to the jury, who retired shortly before three o'cl ock, and at twenty minutes to five the foreman caused it to be announced in open court that twelve of their number had agreed to a verdict. At this time the court was densely crowded, and the utmost anxiety was evinced to learn Gl:e ‘ s V o e n the result of this most protracted inquiry. The jury eaJohn t " , John having come into court, the foreinan announced that twelve of the jurors had agreed to a particular finding, and they resolved to have the verdict drawn up in a legal form. The CORONER then read the finding, as follows : Thompson, John Dwyer, James sharp e, Thomas Clarke, 1 and John Carter, soldiers of the 31st Regiment, are a ( r fi e rs s o a . ti jstiaemdetsharteJstoihntig9C, W . D d e l l i m ani eg ß e guilty of the wilful murder of Jereiltah Frawley." Five jurors dissented from the verdict. Their names are—John Holman, It. B. Walton, William Mahon, William Morri 4, a nd Patrick Mahon. Mr. Willi am Mahon stated, that although the had not agreed to the abo ve verdict they did not ac quit the soldiers of all criminality, and that they would all have agreed to a verdict of manslaughter by soldiers whose persons were not identified. The five dissentient jurors also acquitted Mr. J. C. Del mege of having either fired himself or given any orders to fire. The jury were then requested to again retire and consider their verdict as to the eause of death in the other cases —namely, M ichael Connellan, Mic hael Colman, Thomas Ryan, James Casey, and James Flaherty. Mr. Graydon then applied to have the • eight soldiers admitted to bail. In consepuence of the extraordi na ry and incredible verdict which had been given in, against even the opinion intimated in the coroner's charge, it would be necessary to make such an application immediately to the Queen s Bench ; but h e appre h en d e d t h at i t was i n t he dis cretion of the coroner to allow bail to be given for them; and he submitted that it was a case in which the coroner should exercise, in favour of those men, 'the jurisdiction which he (Mr. Graydon) would show by legal authority that he possessed. Another ground on which he pressed his application was, that the jury had not been regularly impanelled, no precept having bc en issued to the sub-inspector of police to summon a jury, except in the case of Frawley. The CORONER said it should be remembered that the five dissentient jurors had stated that they would have brought in a verdict of manslaughter, in which case, ii it were civilians he was dealing with, he should have no hesitation in issuing a warrant. He could make no distinction between a red coat and a dark one, but was there to do his duty fairly but firmly to all parties. Mr. Graydon pressed the application, but the Coroner decided upon refusing it. The jury having returned similar verdicts in the other cases, the requisition was engrossed in due form. The Coroner then issued his warrant for the arrest of the persons implicated in the verdict, and it was en trusted for execution to Sub-Inspector Donovan and a party of constabulary, by whom the eight soldiers we re conducted to Ennis gaol. Mr. Delmege was not present in the court. SALE OF THE MIDLETON ESTATES. Pursuant to the order of the trustees under an Act of Parliament , 14th of Victoria, sess. 1850, Mr. Fare brother, of the firm of Farebrother, Clark, and Lye, 6, Lancaster-place, Strand,. London, put up for sale at one o'clock on ruesdayon the large room of the Im perial Hotel, Cork, part George Alan, Viscount M o . f the estates of the late Midleton. The sale has been the largest that has taken place in Cork since the in stitution of the Encumbered Estates Court, and the deep interest which was taken in it might be easily seen from the numbers of professional gentlemen, in twadiug p u rchasers, and others, in attendance. The property is situate, t he . greater portion in the county of Cork, and the residue in the county of Waterford; and it was sold, as stated above, by order of the trus tees in whom the property has been vested since the death of Lord Midleton. The conditions of sale, which were exceedingly voluminous, numbered twelve, and their stringency and complexity were the subject of comment among all present. Mr. Farebrother, who presided as auctioneer, stated, however, that the con ditions had been drawn up by counsel, and that it was to be presumed that nothing was introduced into them but what was necessary and just to both parties—to the vendor and the purchaser. The pre sent sale did not, of course, comprise the settled es t a tes of the Midleton family, but ground or head rents to the amount of 1,8551. a-year, payable out of the town of Midleton, and several detached residences, and numerous lots of accommodation and building land, and several farms, containing in the whole about 945 acres, situate in that . neighbourhood ; and other estates situate in the counties of Cork and Waterford. The Midleton property comprising the head rents, were first put up for sale, and after a sharp competi-- tion Lord Midleton was declared the purchaser for 35,0001. The county of Waterford estates, compri sing nearly 1,464 acres of arable, meadow, and pas ture land, and let at rents equal to 8321. 13s. ld., were next put up. They are subject to 311. Bs. 2d. head . rent, of which 191. ss. payable to the Duke of Devonshire, and the remainder to the vicar of Kilro nen. Lord Stradbroke was declared the purchaser, after a brief contest, at 13,0001. The next property put up comprised the fee simple estate (demesne) of Waterfall, which produced 8,5501." The Cork Examiner observes : " This terminated the sale, which it was supposed would have lasted, and certainly would have done so, had the Midleton property been put up in lots, as it would have been, had it notif be.en di .b d ought by one mpur chaser, for three days, and, it not realize ore, the fault is certainly n ot attributable to Mr. Farebro ther, who was as persuasive and seductive as man could be. The prices realized, however, were on the whole considered good, though we heard some gentlemen say that the Midleton property was worth 45,0001. As to the mode in which the sale was conducted nothing could be fairer,. as, at the outset, Mr. Farebrother announced that it would be what is known as 'an open sale,' and that neither the trustee, who was present, nor any one on that behalf, would bid, and that therefore every bid ding would be bone fide.

SHEFFIELD, TllHRSDAY.—Sheffield is again the scene of one of those horrifying murders which startle a whole country. An illigitimate child, nearly two years old, has had its head cut off by its father, who also attempted to murder its mother and another young woman. The m u rd erer ' s na me is Alfred Waddington, a grinder, residing in Lord-street, Park, Sheffield. He is about twenty years of age, the as sociate of notoriously bad charactefs, and he has him self been tried for highway robbery. The murdered child was called Elizabeth Slater, the daughter of Sarah Slater, of Brown-street, Park, and was about a year and nine months old. On Monday the mother took out a summons (which was to have been heard to-day) against Waddington for neglecting to main tain the child. He saw her in the street on Wed nesday, and he swore he would never pay another farthing towards the child. On Wednesday evening it was left in the care of a little girl named Barlow, while the mother went to attend the females' evening class at the Mechanics' Institu tion. About half-past eight Waddington appeared at the door of the class-room, and called out, " Sarah Slater, you're wanted." She went to him, and he asked, " What have you done with the child ?" She told him, and he then said, " You must go with me; it has fallen off a wall, and has broken its neck." She immediately ran out of the room with him. On ar riving in Sylvester-lane he said she need not trouble herself, for he had murdered the child. He pulled out a large clasp-knife, and he said, "Here's some of its blood." He then fiercely attacked her, and at tempted to cut her throat. She guarded her neck with her hands, which were shockingly lacerated; and a little boy, who saw the struggle, called out, " Murder." Waddington then ran up Earle-street, and the poor woman was taken home. He was shortly afterwards met by a young woman named Sarah Dobson, who resides in Duke-lane, Sheffield-moor, a companion of the young woman Slater. Having heard rumours of the murder, and the attack upon Slater, the young woman asked him what he had done with her and his child. He at once,without answering the in terrogatory, fiercely attacked her with his knife, and wounded her severely about the face. Her violent screams caused him to run away. About two o'clock this morning, however, he gave himself up to a night watchman, and at the Town-hall he described the exact place where the murdered child might be found. He said he took it from the little girl, Bar low, carried it into Cutler's Wood, Heeley, near Shef field, and there cut its head off. At daylight this morning two policemen went to the p l a ce mentioned and there found the body of the child. Its head was lying several feet from its body, The prisoner was brought up at the Town-hall to day at noon. Mr. Raynor, chief constable, having stat e d t h e charge, said the case would be fully investigated by the coroner. The Mayor (to the prisoner)—ls it your wish to go before the coroners inquest, or would you rather not go? The prisoner said he would go bef o r e th e coroner. Tne prisoner, who was in his shirt-sleeves, on being placed in the dock, looked round on the spectators with great unconcern. When Mr. Raynor mentioned the charge, his firmnessfirmness for a moment f orsook h i m, and he covered his face with his hands.

BRITISH ARCH7EOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION. NEWARK, WEDNESDAY.—As early as 8 o'clock yesterday morning a large party of the members of the Archaeological Association and their friends as sembled at the railway station, and proceeded by special train to Thurgarton, a village about seven miles from this town, to breakfast at Thurgarton Priory, the seat of Mr. Richard Mil ward. Upwards of 90 ladies and gentlemen availed themselves of the invitation, and the visitors on their errivul at the mansion, which is erected on the site of the ancient priory of Thurgarton, wore received with the greatest courtesy by the host and his wife, and their appetites having been somewhat sharpened by early rising, and by a country walk from the railway station to the hall, they evinced in the most practical manner their aopreciation of the ample repast which was provided. The mansion, although called the " Priory," is en tirely a modern building, in the moot plain and un pretending style of house architecture, but is erected on the site of the ancient priory of Thurgarton, founded in the reign of Edward I.—a conventual establishment which was formerly of considerable size and importance. Few remains now exist of the old priory, but a fine crypt, which extends below a great portion of the mansion, and which is partially used as a wine -cellar, was exhibited to the visitors. It is in excellent pre servation, and contains some springing arches of great span. Several antiq uar i a n relics, which had been di scovere d i n t h e ne i g hbourhood, including a large piece of lead, cast at Chesterfield by the Ro mans, and several curious specimens of tesselated pavement, were exhibited by Mr. Milward to his visitors. The church is of great antiquity, and was very closely examined by the more enthusiastic archaeologists. It contains some curious old stalls , with fine specim ens of oak carving, supposed to have been executed about the time of Edward 111. A double window at the east end of the church, and a door way in the tower, excited especial admiration. On the motion of Sir O. Mosley, a vote of thanks was given to Mr. and Mrs. Milward for their hospitable entertainment, and the visitors then walked back to h. . the station and resu me d their placesthe itr the -special train, which, in accord ance with previous arrange ments, proceeded t o Nottingham - The train arrived at Nottingham about 11 o'clock, when the members of the association at once repair e d rived by to the Exchange-rooms, wh ere they were Mr. W. Felkin, the mayor. Th e ancient received h rtoert the s and muniments of the borough, d a ti ng froma charters year 1,300, along with a number of Roman andotlte antiquities, which have at various peri o d s been r disco vered in the town and neighbourhood, were sub m itted to the inspection of the visitors. The Duke of NEWCASTLE, who met the associa tion at Nottingham, took the chair, and observed that they were allowed the use of the Exchange-rooms by the kindness of the Mayor and corporation of Not tingham, to whom they were greatly obliged. Those whom he was addressing were no doubt aware— though they would scarcely arrive at the conclusion from the present aspect of the town—that Notting ham was a place of very great antiquity. The Mayor, he believed, could date the genealogy—and not of his family, but of his office—to a period of about d6O years back. During that time the town had had the advantage of corporate governments, and the honour of returning two burgesses to Parliament. For 400 years Nottingham had been a county of itself, having been made a county of a town by Henry VI. But, although those whom he was addressing were arch ecologists, and lovers of antiquity, he was sure they would be ready to congratulate the Mayor and the inhabitants of Nottingham on the extensive improve ments which were now in progress in the borough.— (Hear, hear.) He was sure they would all rejoice at the present thriving condition of the town.—(Hear, hear.) If they had leisure to perambulate the town with the Mayor and corporation, and to mark those great improvements which gave it new social features, he thought they would almost fear that archaeology itself would become modernised.—(Laughter.) Al though the time they could spend in Nottingham was short, he was sure they would derive great satisfac tion from the few antiquarian objects of interest which yet remained, and which showed what the town had been in former times. The MAYOR, in responding to the Noble Duke's remarks, expressed his regret that, from the shortness of the notice which had been given them, the corpo ration should have received the society in so very plain and informal a manner. Many of his friends in that town felt deeply interested in those inquiries which elucidated the history, the manner . , and the arts of past ages. He thought it was both interesting and instructive to contrast the past and the present with regard to the physical and social condition of the inhabitants of this country, for such contrasts showed the great progress and improvement which had been made of late years.—(Hear, hear.) He was glad to say that he had been called upon to take part in arrangements for gathering together the an tiquaries of that town and neighbourhood ; and he hoped that at the next meeting of the Archaeological Association a deputation might be present from Not tingham. Mr. PLANCUE then read an interesting and amus ing paper, displaying great antiquarian research, on " the family of the Peverels of Nottingham. The party afterwards proceeded to an adjoining room, where wine and other refreshments were pro}, vided, and w here the Mayor drank to the Duke o Newcastle and the members of the association in a handsome " loving curt," which was presented to the corporation of Nottingham by an ancestor of his Grace in 1681, The visitors then left the Exchange, and inspected a very singular cellar or cave, now used as a wine vault by Mr. Crossland w , or pas s age, which is cut in sandstone, me rchant. The cave is at a depth of 63 feet from the surface o f the earth, and extends for a distance of 173 yards. There are, we understan h d, several similar excavatioa s in, or rather under t e town, though this is the largest of them, but antiqua ries have not ascertained with any certainty for what purpose they were made. The party next proceeded to St. Mary's Church, a large and venerable cruciform edifice, but time did not permit them to make more than a very cursory examination of the building. A small stone sculpture supposed to represent a pope, assisted by two cardi nals, consecrating a bishop, and which was discovered below the flooring of the church during the progress of some repairs which were made a few years ago, excited considerable attention. The party then visited the site of the old castle, to which they were accompanied by the Duke of New castle, who pointed out the various objects of interest, including King Richard's Tower and " Mortimer's Hole"—a subterraneous passage along which, tradi tion asserts, that Sir W. Eland, in 1330, conducted King Edward when he seised Lord Mortimer. There are few remains of the old castle, which stood upon a bold and precipitous rock, rising nearly perpendicu larly on the south and west to a height of more than 180 feet, and whence an extensive and beautiful prospect of the country is obtained. The of fine man sion, which was formerly the residence the Dukes of Newcastle, and which was erected on the site of the castle about the reign of William 111., was, it will be recollected, sacked and burnt during the Re form riots, and still r ema i ns as it was left after the COD. flagration—a mere roofless At two o'clock the party left Nottingham by rail way for the Linby station at about bh miles' distance , on on their way t o Newsteael A their arrival a t Li n b y, g that theey.carriltagwea s found, accomw datian provided for conveying them to N"' steed would not s u ffi ce f or h alf the party, which had obrenr increased, by access i ons at Nott i ng ham D l ' d t en d places, to about 120 persons.

A explained y .1. The numerous and minute descrip- of the comic' tions of the Abbey, which, besides those given by Byron himself, and its association with the great poet, h a ve been elicited from able and eloquent writers, render any account of the building here wholly unne cessary. Shortly after five o'clock the vi-itors assembled in the drawing-room, when the paper was read by Mr. T. J. PETTIGREW, RR.S., on Newstead Abbey. The Abbey, he said, was one of thirteen priories which existed in the county of N o tt s at the time of the dissolution of monasteries, an d priory of Black Canons Regular, dedicated God, and the Virgin Mary. Its foundation, by Henry II dated about 1170, and the priory was surren d ere d July 1, 1539. Henry VIII., by letters patent, dated May 28, 1541, granted Newstead Abbey, with a large estate in the neighbourho o d, t o Si r John and his heirs. Byron, Knight , After some remark - - , i on the origin end eteef's / 7 of eo_n c - instittaions, and communicating to the m ie'. l 'ikeme curious and interesting antiquarian inf +:. goys - 'derived from ancient records, with regard 'to e Abbey of New- • stead, Mr. Pettigrew proceediel no describe the old portions of the Abbey which stlited ‘ ilet, and have been incorporated with the modern milk. The great hall, he observed, was a fine ,ipeanien of antique style, and was form er ly th e ref e ctory. The ieresent _. drawing-room was formerly the dormitory of the monks ; the cloisters presented a most venerable appearance, and resembled those of Westminster Abbey, though upon a smaller scale. The Abbey was besieged in the reign of Charles 1., by the Parliamen tary forces, and held out for some time. Mr. Pettigrew, after stating that the family of the Byrons was to be traced from Ralph de Burun, mentioned in Domes . - day as living in the latter part of the reign of Wil liam the Conqueror, proceeded to give some historical details of the family, and then observed that, although many of its members had been distinguished in the military service of the country, it was to George, Lord Byron, of our own time, that the renown of the family would in after ages be chiefly- attributed. With New stead the late Lord Byron was iadissolubly associated, and it was impossible for them, assembled as they were under the roof and within the walls of that abode in which much of his imperishable writings was mingled emotions arising com posed, without experiencing trom admiration of his works and regret at the early decease of such unrivalled powers. Mr. Pettigrew then referred to the attachment always evinced by Lord Byron for this beautiful residence, and to the pain with which he was compelled to consent to its sale in 181 0 . It was not, however, till 1817 that a sale was effected, and the Abbey then most fortu nately fell into the hands of its present worthy pos sessor, Colonel Wildman, who, in the restorations he had effected, had not gone one inch beyond the original ground plan, the walls now standing exactly upon the old foundation.—(Hear, hear.) Lord Byron and Colonel Wildman, it might be remarked were to gether at Harrow School, and on becoming the pur chaser of Newstead the gallant colonel received a letter fr om the Noble Lord expressing his satisfaction that the mansion had fallen into the hands of his old schoolfello w and monitor. Mr. Pettigrew concluded by observing that all lovers of archeology must rejoice that a place so romantic in its character, associated with so many interesting circumstances, and so closely connected with the history of the greatest of the modern poets of England, should have fallen into the possession of a gentleman who bad exhibited so true a sense of its value, and who bad religiously preserv ed every memorial in his Lord Byron. — (Cheers.) p ow er connected with An adjournment then took place to the dining hall, a noble apartment formed by Colonel Wildman out of the ancient refectory of the Abbey, where an excel eidwtstle prop ose d t h e " H ea lth '' '''.-...464"4"' At the - conclusion of the . , - l r e e n p t as lu t, n t c b le e eo p n of' Colonel Wildman," thanking hi m f or the hospi uwkaesopir N ov hospi tality he had shown the members of the association. The Gallant Colonel returned thanks, and the "Health of Mrs. Wildman" was afterwards proposed by Mr. Pettigrew. The company left the Abbey for Linby about seven o'clock, but, in consequence of the deficiency of carriage accommodation, the railway train wa s delayed long beyond the appointed time, and did not reach Newark till ten o ' clock. NEWARK, THllRSDAY.—Yesterday morning, at ten o'clock, the members of the Archeological Associa tion and th e i r f r i en d s, to the num b er o f u p w ards of 100, left this place for Worksop by special train on Rail way, the Great Northern the seat of th e D u k e of Newcastle, had invited them t o p ay him ' ' the Pres i dent, who a visit. On their arrival at Worksop the party at once proceeded to the Ab bey Churcb, where they t i\ w_ i _ e er w e ar m kef t by the Duke of Newcastle, who h a d l e previous evening, in or d er to makeor tb C Clumber on the the necessary necessary ar rangements for the reception of his guests. The Abbey gateway, a fine specim en of G-othicarchitec ture, but which is rapidly falling into a state of di lapidation, excited much attention from the 8 a It contains a very handsome traceried vns. win dow, and several orna men ta l n iches, with figures of the Virgin and Saints: The church, w hi c h formed a portion of the old Abbey r hurcb, is a good specimen of late Norman architecture. It has two towers, and consists of a nave and two aisles, about 130 feet long. The chancel and the centre tower have long since disappeared. The church has recently been restored, both internally and externally, at considerable expense, but a portion of the ruins of St. Mary's Chapel, initnediately adjoining, and con taining some beautiful lancet windows, which are perhaps the most perfect to be seen in England, re mains in a tolerably good state of preservation. Many of the members of the association expressed a hope that measures would be taken to prevent, as far as possible, this fine specimen of ancient architecture - from falling further into decay, or from being de stroyed by the ruthless hand of modern improvement. The Duke of Newcastle, and the vicar, the Rev. Mr. Appleton, promised that steps should be taken to effect this object. A similar hope was expressed with regard to some remains of the Abbey on the north side of the church, including two beautiful Norman arches, but it appeared that contemplated alterations would render it difficult, if not impossible, to pre servj them. Soon after one o'clock the party left Worksop for Clumber-house, which is about four miles distant but was found-no easy matter, in a small country to nn, to provide for the conveyance of so many per sons, and vehicles of every description, from the smart " clarence" to the lumbering farm-waggon, were put into requisition for the purpose. The last of the party, however, reached Clumber by two o'clock, and the Duke of Newcastle, who had pre ceded his visitors, received them in the library as they arrived. The mansion is a plain edifice, of white freestone, and was erected towards the close of the last cen tury. The front fagade possesses no pretensions to architectural beauty or elegance, and its uniformity has been entirely destroyed by the addition of a small wing, which contains the chapel, and which does not correspond with the rest of the building. The interior, however, combines magnificence and comfort in the highest degree. The rooms, especially the library, the drawing-room, and the state dining room, are well proportioned, and most superbly fur nished, and contain numerous valuable paintings and family pictures by the first masters, besides many articles of vertu. The situation of the house is most beautiful. It lies in the bosom of a valley, and the surrounding hills are richly clothed with plantations of different ages and growths. The garden front of th e ho use consists of a light lonic colonnade, which has a pleasing appearance, and opens upon a fine ter race, f acing an extensive lake, on the bosom of which were reposi • ng craft of various sizes up to a miniature frigate of 40 tons. These vessels were all fully dressed in colours, and, from the great extent of the lake, and the richness of the s urrounding shrubberies and p rpas lantations, a coup dad was produced d I which c ou ld not probably be sused' could be equ a ll e d, in the private groundsif of any indee no t - bleman or gentleman in this kingdom.

At 6 o'clock, the party re-assembled, and returned to Worksop, whence they proceeded to Newark by the s pecial train engaged for the occasion. At half-past Bin the evening a meeting of the asso ciation was held at the Town-hall, the Duke of New castle presiding. Mr. PETTIGREW read a paper, written by Mr. Bateman, of Lincoln, containing notices of burial-places discovered in th e Count _early y of Notting ham. The writer described the barrows which had been opened in various parts of the c arms, ornaments, and other articlescounty, and the found in them. He also stated not longwhich had been urns, which were doubtless of Saxon ago . 15 . or _ been discovered on the Nottinghamroad origin, w ad . ark, and were found calcined human near bones.Ne to contain Mr. HEYWOOD observed that discoveries 0_ the same kind were lately made at some.Lshirewhen f a dispute arose as to whertheyinwearnectahe property of the lord of the soil or the lord of the manor. It was decided eventually that the lord of the soil was entitled to any gold coins that might be discovered, and that the property in any Roman or Saxon re mains was vested in the lord of the manor. A paper prepared by Mr. Jewitt, on ancient customs and sports of the county of Nottingham, was read by Mr. Planchia but most of the customs mentioned differed in no material points from those which exist in many of the midland nod northern counties, and, indeed, generally throughout the country.__ Mr. PETTIGREW, cn behss.f of Mr. Baigent, then read a paper written b y that gentleman on discoveries recen tly made in the church of St. John, at 'Win chester. The writer described several curious paint ings on the wall of the church, which were acciden tally discovered upon the removal of a portion of the plaster in the course of some re p a irs. They repre sent the last j u dgment, the crucifixion of St. Andrew, and other subjects, and were of very great antiquity. The pa per described other discoveries which were made in the same church. The meeting did not separate until a late hour. 10 nd sa 9—" IL 3 ' i ce, .... ar. ... Of 2, Of
