Ist until the 10th the barometer fell gradually from 30 to 29.30. During the height of the gale the baro meter marked 29.28, and on Oct. 12, the day after the gale, it had reached 29.60. The following ships, which are supposed to have not yet arrived home, desired to be reported :—On Julylo, in lat. 4 41 N., long. 94 25 E., the Atherican ship Mary Russell, from Moulmein, 35 days out; Sept. 11, in lat. 1 47 S., long. 22 28 W., the Northern Belle, from Bom bay for.

The Rinaldo will transfer her troops this morning by Government steam tender to the Royal Victoria Military Hospital at Netley, and to Portsmouth garrison for regimental depots, and will immediately afterwards sail for London to deliver her cargo. At a naval court-martial held on board H.M.S. Victory, at Portsmouth, on Saturday, Mr. William Rogers, paymaster, of H.M.S. Basilisk, was tried on a charge of drinking intoxicating liquors between Sept. 20th and Oct. sth last, so as to incapacitate him from fulfilling his duties. The court sentenced the prisoner to be dismissed from her Majesty's ser vice, but in consideration of his previous good con duct, and the very high certificates of character he produced, the court recommended- him to the mer ciful consideration of the Lords Of the Admiralty.

Agricultural Prospects. 41.' , After six weeks of drought and fine sunny and summer-like weather a complete change took place on the first day of the past week, rain having fallen ' at 7 a.m. while it was very wet at 9 p.m. On Mon day morning it was apparent much rain had fallen in the past night, and the forenoon was showery, with the afternoon very wet. This will prove a most ac ceptable change, enabling the farmer to set the ploughs at work on all the heavy soils and to proceed with wheat sowing on the lighter lands, giving an op portunity of getting the seed into the ground in fine order. On Tuesday there was not much rain up to 2 p.m., when it became showery, and the night was very wet. Our advices on that day from the West Riding of Yorkshire state—" After two showery:days and a rainy night, we have aflow of waterin our river again, which is very acceptable. Farmers too will now be able to plough and to sow wheat and tares, as weather permits ; and if it keeps mild, turnips will improve in some cases, though too far gone to do so generally. A good breadth of rye will no doubt be sown, as it was last year, and came in well for the sheep. Ido not hear much complaint of potatoes, and the finest of the wheat is what the public will have." Wednesday morning was foggy, and heavy showers fell at intervals throughout the day. Wind S.W., thermometer 60 deg. ; barometer as low as 29.20 inches, with boisterous weather on all the east coast; and the "drum" signal generally hoisted, with a rough high sea up to Scotland inclusive. One account from Wales makes the fall of rain within 24 hours to register 2.32 inches, and such falls would soon balance accounts of the dry weather previously. Thurs day was a fine breezy day, freshening the atmosphere and doing much good. The farmers were busily engaged in all directions with their autumnal tillage, and will now make up for lost time in waiting for a fall of moisture. Our advices from Warwickshire, on that date, remark—" The weather in this district was fine until Sunday ; since that day we have had continued rain, which was much wanted, and will be of immense benefit to the country generally, but more especially to farmers preparing for wheat sowing." In the west of Eng land the rain has been welcomei ; and in Somerset shire it was remarked—" The weather has at length undergone a change, and we have had several heavy storms of rain, which were much needed." From Suffolk our advices say—" The weather has changed, and already some quantity of rain has fallen." From the East Riding of Yorkshire it was observed—" After about six weeks of continued dry hot weather, rain has at last set in, and we have had about a couple of days of heavy downfall ; but still, with a high range of temperature for the time of year the benefit to the country must be great, as seldom has such dry summer-like weather been experienced at this season." From Northumberland advices run—" The weather continued fine up to Sunday afternoon; since then it has been very wet; wind varying from south-west to south •east." From Lancashire it was stated—" The long-continued drought has at length been relieved by a plentiful fall of rain last night, and the barometer this morn ing has receded to a point indicative of more wet. The drought has naturally affected the production of flour in France, by the stoppage of many mills de ; pendent on water power." From Suffolk, on the coast the advices say—" Since our last we have had some heavy rain, w hi c h wa s greatly need e d . " I n Scotland the weather broke on Sunday last, since when there has been rain and wind. All accounts agree in the great activity going on throughout the length and breadth of the land with autumnal tillage, and some fine samples of white wheats have been secured, with those from Scotland in the best order. The red straw white and Chidham from the Lothians are very fine; rough chaff qualities are to be met with in England, and very select red nursery, and occa- ~._..." . ai ~..,,,, a ( 0 - -- v,--A i'-.

The island of Portland is, perhaps, one of the most curi ous natural formations to be met with around our coasts. It is about four and a half miles long, two in breadth, and nine in circumference. Towards the south it slopes grad ually towards the sea, where it forms a blunt point, which, seen more especially from West Bay, assumes tho appear ance of the bill of a huge bird—hence its name Portland Bill, so well known to all sailors who frequent the English Channel. With the exception of the southern extremity all the other portions of this remarkable island aro raised a great height above the level of the sea, the cliffs in many cases being precipitous, while in others yawning chasms, huge rocks scattered about in confusion ages ago by some great convulsion of nature, and the debris of quarries, all attest the fact that it is for the most part one solid mass of stone against which the waves have beaten for centuries without making any serious impression upon it, though in all probability they scooped out a passage for themselves between West Bay and Portland Roads, and which is now blocked up by that marvellous ridge of shingle called Che sil Beach, where the fishermen hand in their seines during the mackerel season, when as many as 50,000 fish aro some times captured at a single draught. The Romans, who had extensive settlements at Dorchester, Ham Hill (Somerset), Ilchester, and numerous other places in the west, un doubtedly occupied Portland. The inhabitants are rather a peculiar race, retaining many primitive customs, and some persons even go so far as to say that their forefathers came from the Basque Provinces. The soil is for the most part thin, very much subdivided, except in a few in stances where property has been consolid a t e d b y f am il y arrangement irnd - threoltivation on the whole is any thing but satisfactory. The Portland sheep is a small horned animal, with a long tail, such as may be seen on the Welsh mountains or on the wilds of Donegal , well known to the epicure; but wo are obliged to dissi pate that pleasing myth so generally believed about its eating the little shell snail which pervades the grass in millions, and to which is ascribed the delicious flavour of Portland mutton. Every shepherd whom I questioned told me that there was no truth whatever in the popular notion prevalent on this subject. The wheatear, or British orto lan, abounds on the island, and builds its nest among the rocks. It is rather larger than the skylark, and is much esteemed as an article of food. Lobsters and crabs are very plentiful all along the rocky shores, greatly to the advan tage of the fishermen. Portland Roads form one of the finest harbours of refuge in the world. Land-locked on all sides except towards the east, or sea-ward, they only re , • qmred the present breakwater, which as such may now be said to bo almost completed, in order to render them a place of safety for war or for merchant ships to enter during stress of weather when passing up or down Channel ; and it must be borne in mind that there is no other haven of the kind all along this rugged coast from Torbay to Ports mouth. After the Duke of Wellington called public atten tion to the defenceless state of the kingdom, at least so far as the fortifications of our shores and dockyards were con cerned, it seems to have occurred to military men that the occupation of Portland by an eneniy would, if it over oc curred, cause us great trouble and anxiety. If once esta blished there, even in comparatively small numbers, fur nished with modern artillery and having the command of the ocean for a short time, he could have been furnished with ammunition and provisions, and, from the towering heights which dominate the sea as well as Chesil Beach, he might have been enabled to resist all attempts to expel him. Now this stronghold, or at least those portions of it which command the approaches to the island, have been bought by the Government, and fortified in every possible way which military science and engineering skill can suggest. The Verne forts which aro erected on the highest point of the island, could, with their guns, maintain a terrific plunging fire against the vessels of an enemy entering the " Roads," with a view either to cut out merchant ships, or to land troops ; while the Nothe fort (the works on which are being actively prosecuted by the Royal Engineers) would, from its prominent position close to Weymouth harbour, be competent not only to protect the town and the shipping, but also to use its guns in de fending the roadstead. At the extremity of the breakwater there is a circular fort now in course of construction, which is already several yards above the sea level, and which, when finished, will bo armed with guns of the heaviest calibre. The bottom is composed of stiff blue clay ; and some idea may be formed of the quantity of stone necessary to lay its foundations when we say that the depth at low water is 63 feet, while at high tide it is 69 or 70 feet. Last winter, owing it is supposed to the foundations of this structure not having been broad enough, and to the tides having washed away portiOniof the loose stones that had been thrown in on which to erect the superstructure, a crack occurred in the work, extending right across it. Additional materials were added to widen the base—the fissure was closed up by heavier blocks of stone than those that had been used before, and the fort is every day pro gressing towards completion. The materials for construct ing this great artificial ridge (as it may be termed) of rocks, the result of convict labour on the island, were conveyed to their destination on trucks drawn by locomotives along a tramway erected on piles, and afterwards discharged by the withdrawal of a spring, which caused the bottom of the carriage to give way, when the contents, consisting of irregularly shaped pieces of rock of various size; the re fuse of the quarries, dropped into their places, causing a noise and splash which were a never failing source of in terest to the numerous visitors who came to inspect this great national undertaking. There is an opening in the breakwater sufficient to admit of two large vessels passing ono another, which is likewise commanded by two forts, one of which is completed. The tido rushes through it with considerable velocity, scours the bottom of the road stead, and will enable vessels to proceed to sea without going round the breakwater. The staging and rails are still standing, as they aro necessary to the completion of the fort to which wo have already alluded, and doubts have been expressed as to the propriety of removing them. Storms, it is asserted, may be expected to wash away or to displace certain portions of the outer foundations of the structure, which must be replaced. Were the staging and rails taken away, some people fear that there would be no means of conveying materials to the spots whore damage might be done, except by lighters, which would prove a very tedious and expensive process as com pared with the present plan of locomotives and trucks. It has been proposed to close the opening in this great work; but what effect such a step would have on the depth of water in the roadstead is a problem which actual trial alone could determine. The tides here aro peculiar. There are four hours of flood, four of ebb tide, and four of low water. During the continuance of the latter the " guldur,'' or half-tide, sets in for about an hour; and after it has re tired, the regular flow commences at the usual time. The cause of the " guldur" is, we believe, involved in consider able obscurity, though by some it is supposed to originate in the influence exercised in some way or other on the currents of the English Channel by the peculiar form and position of Portland. Under any circumstances, it is to be hoped that Government will complete the outer break water by erecting a see -wall similar to that already built on the inner. Were the rails and scaffolding removed, a drawbridge might be constructed of sufficient strength to span the opening, and a tramway extending from one end to the other of the entire structure would enable the authorities to convey ammunition and provisions to the troops stationed in the forts, and in other respects tend to render this scheme of national defences, noted for utility and strength, and of which the breakwater forms a very material element, one of the most efficient in the United Kingdom. The distance from the Verne to the fort now being built at the extremity of the breakwater is, speak ing roughly, about one mile and a half ; that from the latter to the Nothe two miles and a half ; and from the Nothe to the Verne about throe and a half or four miles, as the crow flies. These forts, forming a sort of triangle, command the roadstead, which has a depth of water, even at low tide, to float the largest vessel that has ever yet been built, as the Great. Eastern remained at anchor here for severa l d ays during her unfortunate trial trip down the Channel, after she was launched, and when an explosion took place which killed several persons, wounding others, and might have blown up the big ship. The bed of the bay and roads is a stiff blue clay, forming excellent holdin g groun d ; b u t it is said that if a vessel once b e gins to drift, the fluke of the anchor becomes so clogged with this stiff adhesive sub stance that unless it cants or turns over there is little chance of her being brought up again. However, casual ties of this kind must always bo extremely rare, as the roadstead is both safe and capacious. The approaches to the Verne from the shore are all scarped, while a deep and wido ditch, cut out of the solid rock by convict labour, isolates the fort on the land side, and an overwhelming fire could be poured across the island in tho direction of the Bill, on which, if an enemy had the temerity to land and afterwards attempted to advance northwards , he would speedily be annihilated, as all rocks and other obstacles capable of giving shelter to invaders have been removed, and the space south of the fortifications rendered com paratively level. Chesil Beach is commanded by guns placed at a great elevation above the village of Fortune's Well, and it is believed that in the event of a hostile force attempting a landing from West Bay on this mountain of pebbles, the shot and shell from Verne, in addition to the havoc which they would commit among a body of men more or less confused by the very act of landing, would also be greatly aided by tho showers of stones which on striking them would be raised ; and every one of them, at short range, would be almost as destructive as a bullet. Tho lower portions of the island intervening between the Verne fort and the shore have been made available for the erection of batteries. Earthworks have been con- strutted on the most commanding positions, and nature and art have here combined their resources with a view to make this one of the strongest places in England. It has been suggested that, in order to render this system of fortifications complete, forts should be constructed on the opposite side of Weymouth Bay, as the distance across either from the Nothe or from the breakwater fort is, it is feared, too great for even the heaviest guns to keep up an accurate fire on an enemy attempting to land at or about the Preventive Station. Guns placed on the heights either of Osmington or White Nose, or on both, would, it is sup posed, acid greatly to the completeness of the great scheme of these defences, of which Portland may be considered the key. The public, we believe, are convinced of the im mense utility and prodigious strength of these works. The harbour of refuge will be useful not only for our war ships, but also to our merchant vessels under various circum stances, and of late years it has been much resorted to by the latter. The Eviction of Colliers at Cramlington. —4. Some further disturbances occurred at Cramlington, near Newcastle-on-Tyne, on Friday, in connection with the eviction of the colliers who are on strike from their cot tages. The Newcastle Chronicle says :—" About half-past nine o'clock a special train was seen approaching with the candy mon, or bailiffs, and a protecting body of police. Behind and within a very short distance of this train was an engine and van, conveying another lot of constables. Upon the arrival of theso trains opposite to the landing place, the mob, which consisted of about ono thousand men, crowded round to see the parties alight, and showed their disapproval of their coming by reviling, hissing, and hooting. The candy men walked in single file between two rows of police officers, and were pre ceded and followed by stronger bodies. As they were passing in at the gateway leading to the farmstead, the rush was so groat that the order of procession grow irre gular and was well-nigh broken, so that the objects of attack—the bailiffs—were likely to receive merciless treat ment. The police, who were pushed to and fro, at last forced back the colliers. Stones were thrown at the bailiffs and constables on the turnpike by men in ambuscade, and the colliers who were on the same track got into the carts, determined not to be left behind. The drivers good naturedly bore with the intrusion, and the long and thick black line so formed moved sluggishly to the row of about fifty dwellings which was to furnish them with work. The inhabitants were on the look-out. Some might be seen peering out of a small attic window, and others, more courageous, were ready upon an approach to turn in and shore up the door. This precaution had been taken in many instances, so that entrance was any thing but easy of accomplishment. First one door and then another was tried without avail, and upon each suc ceeding disappointment there was an outburst of cheering, of laughter, and derision. Mr. Potter and Mr. Telford came up, and orders were given to batter the doors down. About 14 of the candy men were in this respect assisted by some of the officials of the colliery, amongst whom was the blacksmith. The dwelling of Mark Robinson was the first house assailed. Tho free application of the heavy ham mer of the blacksmith made the place resound. Its re peated blows were followed by the groans, deeper and deeper still, of the irate men. The wife and three children came out, and the place was left to be dealt with by the bailiffs, who proceeded to bring out the effects. The horsemen formed a semicircle in front of these premises to keep a clear space for the carrying on of the business. The pit men pressed forward, and as they did so the horses wore backed by their riders, and many men and boys were jammed against the walls or received other slight injuries from being thrown down in efforts made to escape. Spades and pick axes were to be seen here and there, and the pos sessors of those implements of industry converted them into weapons of warfare, with the former striking the horses on their flanks, and with the latter threatening their riders. The windows of nearly every house were broken, the spout ing was pulled down, and the doors and other woodwork smashed to pieces. A large butt, which owing to the late rain, was full of water, was overturned, and wet slush was thrown in the faces of some who bore a badge of distinction such as rubbish of that sort striking a man on the face might be supposed to confer. A few women also endeavoured to frighten the steeds by rattling upon blazers, and making other discordant and alarming sounds. One man was badly squeezed against a wall, and an older one had his hat knocked off, and was toppled to one side. A third, who was backed upon by a constable in the same way, uplifted a pick axe and with angry expressions avowed that he would deal a blow at the neck of the horse if not at the rider. The house inhabited by John Richard son, a widower, and his daughter, which adjoined, was de serted, the removal having been to the Fox and Hounds, in Cramlington village, not far from the Traveller's Rest, to which Robinson had gone. The task which ilm-oandy men had before them in breaking open the house of William Mycroft was a hard one. Strong props had been placed behind the door, so that it had to be battered for some minutes before it showed any sign of giving way. The iron catch bent but would not break, and the panels had to be knocked into pieces before an opening could be made and admission gained. Mycroft, his wife, and three chil dren, and their furniture, were taken out. Attention was next directed to the house of James Lee, who had a wife and two daughters, as well as three daughters of a relative who had gone to Australia. The furniture hero was re moved in the midst of a row similar to that which wo have narrated in conjunction with a preceding case. James Simp son was then dealt with, and after him George Armstrong, who had an elderly and motherly woman living with him and one child as well as three workers. The greatest batthi of the day, however, was fought in front of the house of John Carr, who had a wife and four children. The door was well shored up inside, and seemed to defy the blows of the blacksmith. The people, too, became infuriated by the pushing about which they were subjected to by the police, and stones, earth, brickbats, and pieces of wooden railing were showered upon those who guarded the candy men and the housebreakers. This cottage was full of men—it literally swarmed with men. Three or four faces could be seen close together, watching anxiously the ope rations of those below, and at length tho window was opened, and some broken ware and small articles were thrown out. The constables outside had great difficulty in keeping their ground, their horses being either pricked or punched. Meanwhile lots of men got over the rails into some gardens in the front, and commenced pelting stones. They wore helped by the great throng of pit men on the main road, and the order was given to charge. The constables drew their staves, and a gene ral nzelde followed. Tho men, however, found some stones, and used them as fast as they did so from their hands, or little stones which they had in their pockets. Had the police charged further on the road in the direction which the men were tempting them, a huge heap of paving stones was to have boon the place of for midable resistance, and the consequences would have been fearful. Several persons were injured. One was struck on the left temple and the other on the crown of the head by the policemen with their staves, and Dr. Davidson had to be sent for. Their wounds bled profusely, and caused faintness and illness. When the police entered the house about a dozen men jumped rapidly in succession from the window, others escaped through the roof of the pantry into the field adjoining, and many got out at the top of the house where the tiles had been swept off for the purpose in case of emergency. Only one small shattered piece of hanging wood remained of the door; the window frame was broken to shivers, the walls damaged, and the building given up as a total wreck, as an enemy would leave a fortress useless for the conquerors. A table had been broken up, and the legs of it were in the hand of the invaded party for protac lion. The police captured a few mon, but in several in stances they broke away, or it was not thought advisable to retain them. In addition to this exploit, there were other circumstances as untoward. Five or six of the loads of furniture had been stopped, and a score of men untied and put into the same or other houses the goods only a short time before taken out with so much trouble. It was decided to give up for the day, and the candy men were conducted by a posse of police to t h e train which was wait ing to carry them to Newcastle. They left, as they arrived, amid derision and danger, after about three hours' work, which had only ended in one real removal from the place. The Terrace Row is a wreck, and bears testimony to the destruction is this the third act of a painful drama." Foreign Mail Packet List. MAILS DUE. Australia and New Zealand, via Southampton..

An atrocious offence was committed on Sunday morning on the railway near to Wolverhampton. On the south side of the Great Western Railway station near to that town the systems of the Great Western and the West Midland unite, and there are the customary junction signals, one set of them worked from a signal-box, the occupant of which, through the intervening of a bridge, cannot at all times see the lights and the arms respectively. At a certain time, between two and four in the morn ing, two trains pass the junction in opposite direc tions at nearly the same time, but are prevented from colliding by the signals of one or other of the lines being kept up at danger. On Sunday morning the Great Western train found the signal by which it was regulated down, and the driver therefore brought his train on ; but he perceived that at the same time the West Mid land signal was down also. On passing the box of the signalman he called his attention to the subject. The signalman then found that he could not work the levers of the signals iu question ; on examina- tion, he discovered that some one had, by operating upon the lamps without entering the signalman's box, put the signals of both lines at " Safety ;" and, to keep them in that position, had so hung the weights of the base at the signal-posts that the levers could not be worked in the box. Suspicion rests upon a discharged servant. .~ ~~ f z . —: .- -- =•-, - ..7 l' 7 ' s -‘„ ` r \ 4- , - . 2 - W ri, 5 ,F ., *..,' - ' , ...,.-... ~.. / sionally a prime lot of golden drop. tn.: _-: Saturday were fine days, with a much e perature, on the latter day do wn t o 56 degree.j'l-: i., _ -• S barometer much higher, up to 29.80 inches, with the wind variable, almost all round the compass, , always an indication of rain, an d a t 8 p.m . th ere was a return of wet.

The weather now will be suitable for the inaltsters, who will want a greater supply of barley, and they must pay full prices for the best qualities. Other sorts may go lor grinding purposes, but the present low rates for these are far from being re munerative.—Mark-Lane Express of yesterday. THE CHOLERA IN MALTA. VALETTA, Oct. 11. It will be seen from the acoompanying daily re ports that the cholera still lingers among us, pro bably owing in some degree to a return of very sultry and oppressive weather. The cases continue to be almost entirely confined to the poorest villages. Indeed, the epidemic may be said throughout the present visitation. to have spared the wealthier classes. The alarm which its advent at first created has long since subsided, and many persons who took the opportunity of travelling on the Conti nent are returning to Malta. It is only justice to say, however, that we have witnessed none of those scenes of blind panic which ap pear to have occurred elsewhere. There have been no instances of families abandoning their cholera-stricken relatives, of officials neglecting their posts, of priests refuring to assist the dying ; and if it has happened that a medical man has shown the white feather, such has by no means been the rule. The Relief Committee, who have sat daily at the Exchange, under the presidentship of an honourable member of Council, deserve great praise, they having by their personal example and influence done much to allay the fears of the popu lation, and, with the funds charitably placed at their disposal, have been enabled by timely medical assist ance and wholesome food to relieve a great amount of distress. The following are the returns for the civil com munity of Malta since my last communication was despatched : Oct. 5 Attacks.

In Gozo the decline during the same period has been seven attacks and four deaths. I have not heard of any fresh cases in the regiments, which after the first rains were removed from their temporary encamp ments into their old quarters. But a soldier of the Bth Regt., in• Pembroke Barracks, was attacked the day before yesterday and died in a few hours. He was a man of very irregular habits, and was always undergoing some kind of punishment for breaches of military discipline. He had recovered from an attack of cholera some time ago at Gibraltar. The barracks are situated at St. George's Bay, in one of the healthiest spots in the island. The Governor has issued a notice prohibiting the importation of all kinds of cattle, as well as horses and dogs, from the United Kingdom, in consequence of the cattle disease existing there. The same no tice also orders that s 001, hides, horns, bones, and hoofs coming from Great Britain and Ireland shall be subjected to sanitary measures for the purpose of disinfection. Clean bills of health are now issued at Alexandria, but gessels are not yet admitted to pratique on account of cholera still existing at Cairo. The Cattle Plague, WEST RIDING OF YORKSHIRE, Yesterday the Michaelmas Quarter Sessions for the West Riding began in the Town-hall, Leeds, Mr. Wickham, M.P., presiding. A letter was read from Mr. T. G. Baring, of the home-office, dated Oct. 12, in which that gentleman said he was directed by Secretary Sir George Grey to inform the magis trates that it had occurred to him that it might be desirable that the attention of the justices of the West Riding should be directed at these quarter sessions to the order of the Lords of the Privy Council of the 22d ult., with reference to the cattle plague. After reciting the terms of the 19th section of that order, by which, after notice, justices can make it unlawful to bring animals to a market or fair from infected districts, the latter pointed out that the power given therein had already been exer cised in several instances, but it had been repre sented to Sir G. Grey that the advantages to be derived from it would be materially impaired if, while the power was exercised with reference to some markets" or fairs, no action was taken with respect to others in the neighbourhood. It was clearly desirable that the various local authorities should, as far as possible, act in concert,with a view to the effectual exercise of their power ; and Sir G. Grey would be happy to be the means of communica tion, if necessary, between the justices of the West Riding and other local authorities, as defined in the or der,with respect to any proceedings which the justices might think it expedient to take on this subject. As it was obviously important that ample information of any order made for the purpose of preventing ani mals being sent to any market or fair should be given to the public, not only in the immediate neigh bourhood of the market or fair, but also in the dis trict from which the market or fair was supplied, Mr. Baring said he was to suggest that means should be taken for the widest possible circulation of infor mation by means of the chief constable of the county or counties concerned, or otherwise, as the justices might think expedient. No discussion ensued upon the reading of the letter, but the Court directed that a copy of it should be forwarded to the clerk of the peace to every petty sessional division in the Riding. The chief constable stated, however, that according to the information he received the cattle plague was extending in certain localities. OXFORD COUNTY GAOL.—At the Michalemas Quarter Session held yesterday, and which an unusually large number of magistrates attended, the deputy governor of the county gaol (Mr. Calverly) was unanimously elected governor, in the room of Major Ogilvie, resigned. At the same time Mr. Mores, who had officiated as clerk at the gaol for the last sixteen years, was unanimously elected deputy governor.

Dr. Rout)), physician to the Samaritan Hospital for Women and Children —the best au' hority on such matters —in his admir able publication on Food, says—Amongst the vegetable sub stances, that which comes closest to milk in its composition is, without doubt, Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica Food, con aining both phosphoric acid in abundance and chloride of potassium ; it also includes casein, the same principle which is found in milk in its constituent part. No wonder, there fore, that under its influence many children affected with atrophy (wasting away of the body), and marked debt Py, have completely recovered. I have given it with the greatest advant,ge in such cases; and so far as I may judge from my own experience, practice fully carries out what theory, from a knowledge of its composition, led us to anticipate.— In tins, 1 lb., 2s. 9d. ; 21b., 4s. 6d ; 51b., 11s. ; 121 b., 225. ; 241 b. 40s.—Barry Du Barry and Co., No. 77, Regent-street, London; also Phillips, tea dealers, S, King William -street ; likewi e at 61, Grae,echureh-street ; 4, Cheapside; 49, Bishopagate street Within ; 63, 150, and 298, Oxford -street ; 330, Strand ; M, Upper Baker-street ; 103, Tottenham-court-road ; 96, Upper-street, Islington, N. ; Harvey, Notting-hill ; Close Brothers, 85, High-street ; and Stubbs, Queen's-terrace, St. John's-wcod, London ; and all respectable grocers and che mista.—Beware of spurious imitations.
