EVENING SIJN_ PIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE DAILY PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—Sir Robert Peel has done us the honour to ..vote no small portion of the speech, which our readers ill find in another part of our columns, to noticing two -ragraphs, which he has found in the Globe. We that we have really conferred some obligation on 17 T Right Hon. Baronet by furnishing him something to .1k about,—and we are not surprised that he prefers run .ng down such very small deer as the little bits of )ssip in question, which greatness might afford to dis pgard, to meet the more important objections ,nought against him by even Conservatives of sincere haracter, like those of the British Critic, and which, leo, we have transferred to our columns. We are quite fee to say that we believe Sir Robert Peel spotless from he stigma of secret instructions to his steward to with old sixteen and sixpence ; we do not think that our :amworth correspondent intended to make such a charge ; ,ut if he did, we utterly disclaim intending to entertain I t. As to the other club gossip, that Sir Robert means e convert the Queen, on that point also, we agree with l'ie Examiner that it is not likely Sir Robert should have id so, as he is not so apt to say what he thinks. No; as Sir lobert says, that would be " acting the part of an irregular ,eactitioner, the part of a quack doctor,and not of a profes onal man, who should profess that he had some inva eable nostrum which, without being consulted by the patient, or allowed to feel his pulse, would prove a per fect remedy for whatever disease he might labour under. I therefore, gentlemen, must continue steadily to refuse to offer my advice until I have access to the patient, and ill those advantages of consultation, without which no pro :er advice can be given." Sir Robert Peel says he refers e these things without anger or irritation. We can ~, a dily believe him : we can well believe that "if they do ejury to any one it will be to those who occupy them selves with such contemptible matters." We can assure the Right. lion. Baronet that they form no part of the elements of the judgment we have endeavoured to form, ea larger grounds, of his public character ; and we only hope that, since his researches into the columns of the Globe are so vigilant, he will contrive to find there thins of more importance than ephemeral on dits. The Right Hon. Baronet's regard to our humble labours tempts us to hope that instead of his converting our Queen to To ryism, we may possibly have the honour of assisting his conversion to Liberalism, and gently correcting the less auspicious tendencies of his character and connections. STANDARD.—One of the arguments against Lord "•;tanley's Bill chiefly relied upon was, the rapid diminu tion of the freeholders' registry in Ireland already. We explained at the time that this diminution, whatever it was, might be the consequence of causes unconnected .vith any modification of the law, or any particular line of conduct on the part of landlords ; in short, that if • t happened not to be a pleasant thing to be a regis tered freeholder, the registry would , of course, dechne. Yow, we copied yesterday from the Carlow Sentinel a report of a trial, which furnishes inter alia some eneedotes of the "wild sports" of the priests, that we. think must prove very clearly the condition of an leish registered freeholder to be the reverse of agreeable. tenting has been always a favourite recreation with our epecies, but it is hunting in the active, not the passive application. From the days of Nimrod down to the last rszzie of General Baraguay d'Hilliers, or Fathers Mahon and Murphy, or of a contractor for the United States elave market, no human being ever took delight in being ;'!anted. Nevertheless the trial to which we refer proves 'eyelid all doubt that a registered freeholder is in Ire- Ind regarded exactly as a beast of chase, whom reverend pastors of the Church of Rome .asy pursue for their exercise and solace, or any ether purpose, hunt at pleasure, and having run him 'town, tie him and dispose of him as shall seem to them Indeed, the reverend sportsmen do not even allow an" law which is secured to the nobler class of animals of tis forest. They do not scruple to take him in his form, 7ad even to stop the taniere to ensure that he shall have e ,„ -ensue of escape. This is droll; but what is not droll in where, having knocked a man's brains out, they garnish ;he corpse with bow knots, tastefully formed front i s smaller intestines ? Droll, however, as is the holy ant of f eee fa e ldere, it is not more droll than certain. .'he trial to wInT.: I I we refer proves the existence of ,lie practice, and the extent to which it is indulged in. COURlER.—Nothinea it appears, short of the most -xplicit declaration of principles, and a definite exposition of .-hat measures the yet unformed Conservative Cabinet stew deem expedient in the present state of the country, .m now satisfy the AiThii_.; Press, Their longings in this eexpect are, we think, as unreasonable as their upbraid ne.s and coraplaints are gratuitous and groundless. ,'rlierever and whenever occasion demanded, or a legiti --an:-e opportunity offered, we are not aware that Sir lobee •Peel, or any prominent member of his party, see s ln;miz from a candid and manly avowal of general nrinelplee, More on their parts were uncalled-for end un‘visse So far from shrouding their opinions in ny , stery, or cloaking their meaning under the !ivenient form of vague generalities, as the Whig prints .'wisely alleg e, t fi e Conservatives have at a ll times been remarkable for the facet, the clearest, and most em phatic enunciation of their opinions and principles. There i 7, no question of the day, whether appertaining to fiscal regulations, or the higher tenets of general policy, on Alicia the leading members of the Coneervative party have not placed on record their sentiments, with mire e‘rved, and as some might think, unguarded eendour. 10-ve perfectly groundless is then the charge of a want of explicitness in their exposition o f principles, and how tiareasonable is the demand now made upon them for a programme of their intentions and measures. As far as is consistent with propriety in 141* present position, with prudence as the head of a Ministry yet to be formed, and with respect for those destined to be his future col leagues, Sir R; Peel has already laid before the country a clear and complete outline of the principles he will recog nise and act upon when in office. The formula in which this has been expressed ,is as comprehensive as it is ac curate. " The Conservatives are resolved upon main taining on their ancient fouedations the institutions of the country, in Church and State? This, which is the true interpretation of Conservatism—t he very essence of its creed— rp is not, forsooth, sufficiently exP.':lelt to please the morbid curiosity of Ministerial prints. NEW MACHINE FOR BLOCK PEINTING. The extraordinary improvements which have of late Tears been introduced into the various branches of the cotton manufacture; have so entirely changed the dif ferent modes and processes of production, that scarcely any resemblance can now be traced to the original methods. Block-printing, however, seems, until very recently, to have been left behind in this march of im irovement, and the printing shop presents almost the same appearance now which it did when the art was first introduced into this country from the East Indies ; and for aught we know to the contrary, the precise mode was still followed which was practised by the ancient Egyp tians, with, perhaps, a slight increase in the size of the blocks. In cylinder printing very extensive improve aients have been effected, and are now very generally in use amongst the trade ; but when brightness and purity )f colouring are required, block or surface printing is the mode by which it is effected; and in the article called mous selines de laine, and other mixed fabrics, which require to be well saturated with the colouring matter, the original mode of printing has hitherto been practised.- On Wednes day last, however, we had an opportunity of seeing in opera tion at the print-works of Messrs. Thos. Kennedy and Cq. at Little Govan, a machine invented by a Mr. IliiTch, engineer, of London, which is likely destined to make a grett revolution in the printing business, and may eventually enable printers to execute the most elaborate patterns in block-printing equal in facility with the cy inder machine. The machine which we saw was adapted or printing patterns in four colours, which it performs with blocks precisely similar to those in ordinary use, except that they impress the whole breadth of the piece at once, and the oper a ti on i s per f orme d upon a ta b le re sembling in appearance that used by the hand-printers. Each block, after having b een tw i ce di pped upon the c olour sieve, (each time in a different place, so as to meet a fresh surface charged with co l our ) , is carried on to the printing table, when it is im pressed on its exact position upon the cloth ; and i n cases when the colour upon one block is thicker than what is necessary for another, the consistency is re gulated according to the fineness or weight of the objects upon the surface of lthe from block.arethe cin T oal h od e tel y r, t r o e o. require fallu mordant,ire I a p o bl n o w tahna t d o t make them weights, in producing a sound a set of maids pa , rt o f r re w e ei particular block, which assists the im pression.

We were shown some perfect specimens of six . colour work which had been printed by one of these icachines in London, and we understand that one of them may be seen printing patterns, in six colours, at the establishment of Messrs. Sharp, Roberts, and Co., engi- Iteers,. M anc h es t er . W e find that the inventor and patentee of this ma c hi ne h as a pract i ca l k now l e d ge o f th e printing trade, which must have been of intimate use to him in constructing this beautiful piece of mechanism. The machine at Messrs. Kennedy's is worked by half a horse Doter, and bei ng attended r by two men and a boy, pro duces as much work as twenty men and twenty boys innler the old or usual system ; and it is expected that .iiiieriority of work will be added to the cheapness and faci Ity or execution.

Frona the progress which has been recently made in calico printing on the Continent, something like the invention of Mr. Burch -,vas extremely desirable to enable the British printers to ..stain their superiority ; and there is nothing in which workmen .so much excel their continental rivals 5.3 in the skilful. management of machinery. A Swiss, ai , rman, or French block-printer, is quite a match at an tine in skilful manipulation to an Englishman, but non e ,f them could compete with him in the quantity or qua of the work to be obtained from an ingenious ma like that which we have been describing.—Glas jow Ilei•tild.

P . POPULATION OF THE CITY OF • GLASGOW AND COUNTY OF LANARK. In our first page will be found the Census returns for the City of Glasgow and the county of Lanark, showing a total of 280,676 souls for the former, and 433,912 for the latter, inclusive, of course, of Glasgow and the other burghs within the bounds of the county. While the vast increase which has taken place in the population since 1831 must form matter of consideration to every one, as indicative of the progressive advance of com merce and manufactures within our bounds, it is not to be regarded without a somewhat painful alloy or draw back. The returns prove that in those parts of the city, which are principally inhabited by labourers or the humbler class of operatives, the increase in the number of dwellings has borne no proportion to the increase of the population which inhabits them ; or, in other words, that as the number of people have increased their comforts have decreased. The Irish population, it will be observed, has increased vastly during these last 10 years, and the fol lowing remarks on the subject by Mr. Strang are well worthy the attention of those who pursue statistical inquiry with the view to ameliorate the condition of the mass who lie at the base of society :—" While, therefore, (says he] there appears only to be an increase [in the ancient burgh bounds] of 3,495 in the present Census above that which the Irish bore to the population of 1831, the real amount of inhabitants who are imbued with Irish charac teristics, habits, feelings, and religious sentiments, is in finitely greatei. Whether or not this vast infusion into our city population, of a people whose ideas of comfort are so far below the level of this nation, has had the effect of altering, in any degree, the tastes and habits of those with whom they are in daily intercourse, is somewhat problematical ; but it cannot be denied, that this con stant Irish immigration is producing a more densely and closely packed community, and is tending to a less com fortable condition in the dwellings of the labouring classes of our city." While on this subject it may not be uninteresting to give a vidimus of the population of Glasgow and of the county in which it is situated, at various antecedent periods, evincing, as it does, an advance which has only been equalled by the rapid, though less extensive, growth of some of the American communities which have sprung into thriving towns and cities within a few years after the axe was applied to the forest from which the first location was hewn. There is reason to believe that at the time of the Reformation, in 1560, the population of Glasgow amounted to 4,500 ; but there is no authentic data on this subject till 1610. In that year (1610) Epis copacy having been re-established, the population was taken by Archbishop Spottiswood, and ascertained to be 7,644. At the restoration of Charles 11., in 1660, the population numbered 14,678. At the period of the Re volution, in 1688, the population had declined to 11,948. The civil wars are assigned as the cause of this decrease, and it is a matter of historical fact, that the iron hand of persecution fell upon no part of Scotland more heavily than upon that part of it in which Glasgow is situated. It is not wonderful, therefore, that the numbers fell off immediately after the restoration of the Second Charles, and that it required more than half a century to make up the defalcation. In 1708. immediately after the Union, the population amounted to 12,766. This enu meration was made by the Magistrates, to ascertain the amount of the decline which they had anticipated. In 1712, an enumeration was made by order of the Conven tion of Royal Burghs, and the population was found to be 13,832. In 1740, the numbers were taken by the Magi strates, and found to be 17,034. In 1753 the population had increased to 23,546, but this total included persons livingin houses adjoining to, but beyond the Royalty. In 1763 an enumerationwas made by Mr. J. Woodburn, city surveyor, and found to give a total of 28,300. In 1780, the suburbs of Glasgow were for the first time included in the enu meration, and the total numbers were 42,832. In 1785, soon after the termination of the American war, the Magistrates took the population, which was 45,889. In 1791, the population was taken for Sir John Sin clair's National Statistical Account, and found to be 66,578. In ISOI, the first Government Census was taken, and the result was—Males, 35,007 ; Females, 42,378—T0ta1, 77,385. Including part of the Suburbs, however, which had been omitted, the total population of Glasgow now amounted to 83,769. In 1811, the Government Enumeration gave—Males, 45,275 ; Fe males, 55,474—T0ta1, 100,749. By adding those parts of the suburbs, which had been omitted, the actual total was 110,460. In 1819, an enumeration was taken by the-late Dr. Cleland, giving the following results— _ Males, 68,994 ; Females, 78,203—T0ta1, 147,197. At the Government Census of 1821, the numbers were— Males, 68,119 ; Females, 78,924—T0ta1, 147,043. In 1831, the fourth Government Census was taken, and the population was—Males, 93,724 ; Females, 108,702 — Total, 202,426. In 1841, the fifth Government. Enume ration gives a total of 280,676. The population of the county of Lanark has pro gressed as follows :—ln 1801, it amounted to 146,699. In 1811, it was 190,924, showing an increase from 1801 of 31 per cent. In 1821, the total was 244,387, show ing an increase from 1811 of 27 per cent. In 1831; the population was ascertained to be 316,790, showing an increase from 1821 of 30 per cent. In the returns which we publish to-day the gross population of Lanarkshire in 1841 is 433,912, showing an increase from 1831 of 117,122 or 36'9 per cent. , ---Glasgow Herald. THE LATE FAST APPOINTED BY THE SCOTCH KIRK. " Dearly beloved brethren—Grace be unto you, and peace from God our father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. It has seemed good unto us, being assembled with one accord, to invite and call all the flock, over the the which the Holy Ghost math made us overseers, to join with us in devoting to the solemn exercises of hu miliation, of thanksgiving, and of prayer, a convenient day which, in virtue of the authority committed to us by our King and Head, we have set apart for that holy end." Thus commences a pastoral address, signed by Robert Gordon in the name of the General As sembly of the Presbyterian Kirk of Scotland, and read in all the churches the Sunday before last. Such is the apostolic style, and far more than apostolic impe riousness assumed by a body of clergy, one-third of whom do not even profess to preach the doctrine of the Church with which they are associated, but just the opposite — n third of whom, whilst they promulgate its creed, exhibit :ione of its influence—and the remaining part of with the others in practically unchurch whom concal l.

" Met with one accord," they divide by narrow majorities ; and "in virtue of the authority committed to them by their King and Head," they, as State-Churchmen, usurp the authority which, in all former times, their church has recognised as vested in the Civil Magistrate. More than half the flock over which, with canting impiety, they declare the Holy Ghost has made them overseers, is their's only because they arrogantly claim them, and the afflictions on account of which they call upon the nation to humble themselves, are the afflictions of clergymen who cannot retain state pay without submitting to state interference. Whether this be blind self-delusion, or nauseous hypocrisy, or both, WC know not—but this we do know, that it is a complete burlesque upon religion. The address goes on to state that " the Lord has a controversy with his church on account of their sins," and asserts that " the troubles and perils of an ex ternal nature in which their beloved Church is involved, being connected in respect of time, and partly also in the way of natural consequence,' with particular mea sures adopted, or with a particular line of conduct fol lowed, although it might seem to be the mark and token of God's disapprobation of what has been done, must not be so interpreted by mere human and earthly wis dom—and that if, in repairing the breaches of former generations trouble and danger come, so far from thinking that any strange thing has befallen them, they who thus suffer are still called , upon to testify that the Lord is righteous, and that all his ways are just and true." We confess, our blood boils with indignation as we write their monstrous perversion of Scripture sentiment and language. Why what, in the end, are these men threat ened with? neither more nor less than the loss of their endowments. The State claims to interfere in the Church's affairs simply because the State finds the estimation money. Would they but throw up their compulsorily exacted emoluments, they would enjoy the spiritual in dependence,l the invasion of which calls for a day . of spe cial fasting and prayer. uiiliation. But spiritual independence is in their too exensive to be sacrificed at the cost of teends. And of gold, they will obtain from heaven, if possible, what they cannot consent to have at the ex penseleave us the mon ey t 0 0 ,,, y " We cannot surrender over whelmed with distressent "Give :is the independence and tion.

" The answer supplied by t h emselves is equallyell3 characteristic." These things are manifest evidences of there being some accursed thing in the midst of us— so me root of bitterness —some blot cleaving t o our Lands." Aye ! the wedge of gold and the Baba,- lonish garment explains all—this is " th e accursed thing," and the imp risonment of conscientiou s men because they will not bow the knee to the imag e w hi c h clerical tyranny has set up, this is " the blot clea v i ng to their hands." The foul stain has sunk into the skin, and . nothing can wipe out. The mark of the beast is upon the arrogant, persecuting kirk—mad she is doomed to fall by her own misdeeds. She is now feeding upon the as h es of her own pride, and drinking the nauseous cup which her own ambition and avarice has mingled. Down to the dregs will she be compelled to - drain it, and none will rity her calamity. Let her but loose her hold upon the teinds, and her troubles would cease. We cannot pursue this address further. The confor mity to the world which she professes to deplore, she produces by her system and encourages by her exam ple. A church living in the embraces of the State can no more keep up earnest religion, and separation fro m the world than can the immodest, promote and sustain the virtue of chastity. When the-General Assembly thinks fit again to appoint a day of fasting for the nation, on account of ecclesiastical difficulties, we recommend to their serious notice a passage of Scripture-far more ap propriate than any quoted in this pastoral address.

FASHIONS FOR AUGUST. (From the London and Paris Ladies' Magazine of Fashion.) Materials of silk or worsted are now so varied and beau tiful, and also so moderate in price, that in Paris they are more fashionable than the coloured muslins, or cottoit manufactures, bareges, foulards, persannes, chine, &c. &c., and a new article imitating lace, lined with•colours, with robes of tarlatane in pink or blue, embroidered in white tambour, are all fashionable at this moment, in consequence of the late cold weather. Peignoirs of muslin lined with silk have been slightly wadded, the wadding being placed between two breadths of silk. Deep tucks are much in favour for organdys, tarlatanes, and muslins ; but for gaze de laine, cachemere, barege, and silk materials, two and three flounces are preferred. Gimp trimmings continue to be used for walking dresses and morning negliges. The newest corsage is high, and full all over, with sleeves fulled their entire length by means of runners ; the corsages a la Grecque and en Gerbe are also worn. Cannezous and fichus are made of plain net en bouil lons, with inlets ; high cannezous with long sleeves are made in this style, the cannezous Camargo with long cords, embroidered, and the demi decollate with small sleeves ; and the waist encircled by small basques trimmed with lace have a pretty • effect ou the co loured skirts. Chemisettes of muslin are plisse en guimpe, and finished with a ruche. Scarfs continue in universal favour in Paris ; on account of the coldness of the last month, muslin scarfs: were lined with pink or blue cachemere, and trimed with fringe to correspond. The cap a la Pompadour, with the lace drawn toge ther on the centre of the forehead, plain at the sides, forming wings on the throat, with a bunch of pink daisies, green currants, &c. on the left side, and rosette of pink gauze ribbon on the other ;—lace lappets inter mixed with flowers—the small paysanne cap—and the pointe, or half handkerchief a la fauchon of point lace, placed very backward on the head, the ends inter mixed with flowers, form the newest style of cap at this moment. The youngest ladies now, even in the summer, adopt coiffures, a sort of medium between the coiffure of hair and the cap, composed of lace, gause, and ribbons. Bon nets do not undergo much change at this season. Capotes of poult de soie are ornamented with ruches, and sometimes covered by a voilette of lace : the straight form is much in favour, either for poult de soie, bouil lonne, embroidered organdys, &c. Straw bonnets are used for morning wear, trimmed with narrow bands of velvet laid on flat, sometimes confining small lace veils ; the velvet ribbon is arranged in a line of toques at the back of the bonnet. Pale blue gloves are all the fashion in Paris ; both long ones and mittens are made in this shade, closing with a small double button called gitanos, united by a chain, which admits of their hang ing a little beyond the button-hole.

Mr. LOTT declared that the Court was pledged to widen Watling-street, which was a more dangerous Thorough fare than any that had been or could be mentioned, be fore it would consent to make any other improvement, and he appealed to its humanity to commence operations in that place before it listened to any other suggestion.— (Hear, hear.) There were, in Wading-street and its neighbourhood, accidents occurring daily, and deaths occurring periodically. For his part, he should oppose every other improvement until that which was so loudly called for by humanity was carried into effect. The reports were then severally agreed to, upon the understanding that all the improvements alluded to should be undertaken as soon as the Corporation funds could be made available for such purposes. REPORT OF PIRATES. The following has been posted at Lloyd% : " Intelligence by the schooner Apparition, of Jersey, J. G. Gruchy, •master, from Monte Video, arrived at Cork :—On the 2d July, lat. 17, lon. 28 30 W., boarded by two pirates, who, after overhauling the ship, left us, taking with them a cask of water. Eleven men armed with pistols, knives, &c., came on board ; the captain of one of them was a short stout man, having a pair of white flan nel trousers on, and pistols in side-pockets, dark complexion, black whiskers, and wore a cloth cap. The other captain was a tall man, grey eyes, yellow look, sandy whiskers, wore a yellow shirt and old gold-laced cap, and was armed with a knife and pistols. He spoke French fluently, and appeared to be the Commodore. The interpreters were a middle-aged man, having gray hair and mustachios, a pair of white trowsers, and wore a white Manilla hat ; he was also armed ; he spoke a little English and French. The other interpreter appeared to be labouring under the sickness common on board of slavers ; he was dirtily dressed ; had a dirty straw hat on ; wore large gold ear-rings in his ears ; sort of coarse bread-bag frock and trousers on ; and had the appearance of a confounder, thief, or pirate ; spoke a few words of English ; and was armed with a long knife, &c. Amongst the remainder were some blacks and a man whom we took to be an Englishman, wearing a French white round-topped hat, and shirt and canvas trou sers. The remainder were also armed. They were two schooners, carrying no top-sails ; one of them having no bulwark but a light rail, and round her painted black outside, and two gilded stars on her stern. The other was a large vessel, about 50 tons burthen, having a gilded figure-head, and had a yellow stripe round her. The decks of both of them were crowded with men.

TREATMENT OF CATTLE IN SMITHFIELD MARKET. Mr. TEGG said that he had noticed a report in the newspapers, in which serious complaint was made of the ill-treatment of cattle, as regarded the small allowance of water to them in Smithfield Market.—(Hear, hear.) He hoped that the Lord Mayor would cause such notice to be taken of the matter as would lead to the correction of so great an evil, if it really existed, or to the correc tion of the report, if there existed no foundation for it. The LORD MAYOR said he felt convinced that the Corporation would most willingly afford every requisite accommodation for the cattle which were brought to Smithfield, and whose distressed condition had been represented to him in the communication al luded to, as calling aloud for some compassionate inter ference.—(Hear, hear.) It was not for him to point out the means of remedying an evil of the kind ; but the Chairman of the Market Committee, whose intelligence and humanity he relied upon, was in Court, and would, no doubt, give a satisfactory public explanation, and suggest an efficacious plan. Mr. HkEs (the Chairman of the Markets Committee) said that the subject was by no means a new one. It had been frequently mentioned to him, and he had been waited upon by several of the members of the So ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, all of whom he satisfied by his answer with the exception of one. The complaint was, he assured the Court, without foundation. It was a common feeling with the public when they saw oxen with their tongues out and evidently suffering from excessive heat, that thirst was the cause. The facts were these. The ani mals were driven to market from distances round Lon don varying from 60 to 140 miles ; upon their arrival on Saturday at some distance from London they were placed before tanks of water and an abundant supply of hay, and on Sunday they had the same sort of refresh ment without the least stint. It was true that upon being placed in the market for sale no water was given to them, but it was erroneous to assert that they re mained for 13 or 14 hours in a deplorable state in Smith field. Great numbers of cattle arrived between three and four on Monday morning, and by twelve or one in the day were all cleared away. Now, his opinion, de rived from a long experience, was, that to give cattle water in Smithfield during the hours of business would be extremely injurious to them. He knew that he was stating what would probably make an unfavourable im pression on the public mind ; but he considered it to be his duty, and should not hesitate to maintain the result of his experience and judgment.—(Hear, hear.) While the animals were in a hurly burly condition, baited by dogs, and shoved about by drovers under a hot sun, to fill them with cold water would be productive of the most serious mischief ; and if they were slaughtered with their bellies in such a state a great portion of the meat would become almost immediately putrid.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. Mellish, when he supplied the navy, never allowed the cattle to have water for twenty-four hours before they were killed, for he knew that if they drank the salt would lose its efficacy upon the carcases.—(Hear, hear.) He (Mr. Hicks) repro bated in common with every other man of humanity the cruel treatment of the brute creation • but here was, in reality, not the slightest ground for the imputation. He would show to any persons who might be appointed a Committee to inquire into the merits, of the question, that the very thing complained of was a proof of the hu manity of the Smithfield system. Something, it would be admitted, was due to the owners of the cattle as well as to the public, who were deeply interested in the wholesomeness of the meat, and to the cattle themselves, and the alteration of the existing practice would soon show itself to be prejudicial to man and beast.—(Hear.) Mr. ANDERTON said that he had every reason to place confidence in all that Mr. Hicks had stated. He did not know whether any of his brethren of the Corporation kept pigs.—(Laughter.) He was the owner of pigs some time ago, and he sent them to a butcher to be killed after they were fed. " No," said the butcher, "if you don't let them be without eating and drinking for a time, they won't be worth killing.' So that he was obliged to starve his pigs to save his bacon.—(Laughter.) Mr. LAWRENCE said it appeared from what had been just said that the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was in the wrong in their conjectures about what was really cruel and what was humane. At all events the question seemed to be, which was to be preferred —humanity and putrid meat, or denial of food and drink to the cattle, and unexceptionable food.—(Hear.) What ever the Court said,, or the public might think upon the subject, the complaint proved in the strongest manner that the heart of the city of London was not the place for :laughter-houses.—(Hear.) If the beasts were slaugh tered in Northampton, they would not be over driven in London, and there would have been no occasion for the present discussion ; but while the present corrupt sys tem prevailed, the abuse could never be expected to be removed or diminished.—(Hear, and cries of " Oh.") Mr. Hicxs said that if the beasts were killed at Northampton, or at any other place, they must be fasted one day before they were killed to be worth any thing.— (Hear, hear.) THE ROYAL EXeHANGE AND GRESHAIII TRUSTS. Mr.LAWRENCE, in the absence of Mr. L. Jones, brought up the following Report : To the Right Honourable the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and Commoners, &c. &c. We, whose names are hereunto subscribed, your Com mittee, in relation to the Royal Exchange and Gresham Trusts, do certify, that since our detailed Report, pre sented to this Honourable Court on the 22d day of October last, of the several proceedings of the Joint Committee on Gresham affairs, from the 14th of May to the 16th of October last, we have had laid before us the further proceedings of the Joint Gresham Committee, connected with the re-building of the Royal Exchange, ' and the arrangements for letting portions of the struc ture to some of the former tenants of the late Exchange, and other public Companies; and William Tite, Esq.;the architect of the new building, having made arrangements for appropriating part thereof for the Gresha m Lctures, an intimation had been made to the Joint Committee that a public body was desirous of treatirr , for that por tion upon terms highly advantageous to the trust ; and, under these circumstances, they deemed it most advisable to find some other suitable accommodation for the Gres ham Lectures ; and having conferred with the Lecturers upon the subject, the Joint Committee entered into a treaty with the London Bridge Approach Committee to take a plot of ground at the corner of Cateaton-street and Basinghall-street for the purpose of erecting a hall for the Gresham Lectures, and ultimately agreed to take the same at a rental of 1801. per annum, and to purchase the fee-simple thereof at thirty-two years' purchase, sub ject, nevertheless, to the approbation of this Honourable Court, and of the Mercers' Company, the joint trustees under the will of the late Sir Thomas Gresham, and also to expend a sum not exceeding 6,0001., in equal moieties, in the erection of such College, subject to the like sanction and approbation. That we, your Committee, having taken the said pro ceedings into consideration, agree therewith, and recom mend this Honourable Court to give their sanction ac cordingly, the. Company of Mercers having already been pleased to agree to a similar recommendation from their Committee. And we have caused extracts from the proceedings of the Joint Committee on Gresham affairs, so far as the same are connected with the re-building of the Royal Exchange, to be made, and to be hereunto annexed, for the further consideration of this Honourable Court, and in continuance of our before -mentioned Report of the 22d day of October last. .

TAYLOR moved the following amendment, seconded by Mr. W. Joss,—" That in order fully to enable the Court to form a correct judgment as to the most advantageous provision to , be made for the separate establishment for Gresham College, there be laid before the Court, and printed for the consideration of the mem bers, a statement of the cost and of the extent of ac commodation to be afforded by the proposed building in Basinghall-street, and likewise, together with such state ment, a copy of the Report made to the Joint Grand Gresham Committee on the 10th of October, 1839, by the Sub-Committee appointed on the 4th of January in the same year, to confer . with S. J. Capper, Esq., and Miss Hackett, relative to Crosby-hall being taken for the purposes of Gresham College, and to which Sub- Committee was also referred a memorial of the Profes sors for the re-establishment of the College, the said Sub-Committee having, after full inquiry and considera tion, and in furtherance of the business entrusted to them, resolved, That Crosby-hall is a suitable situa tion for the College,' and therefore directed a communi cation to be made to Miss Hackett that the Sub-Com mittee would recommend the purchase of her lease of ninety-six years for 2,5001., which terms were acceded to by her ; when the negotiation was suspended and postponed from time to time, in consequence of the urgent business which engrossed the attention of the Committee connected with the building of the Royal Ex change. Also, that the Royal Exchange Committee be directed to lay before this Court, along with copies of the said Reports, a statement of the accommodation to be afforded by each of the two sites, and an estimate of the cost of each •, and that the further consideration of the Report be deferred until the said statements have been laid before the Court." After considerable discussion the amendment was negatived by a majority of 2, the numbers being, for the amendment, 20 ; against it, 22. The Report was then agreed to. CITY IMPROVEMENTS. Reports were brought up, on petitions from merchants and others, for a new street from the Mansion-house to Southwark-bridge, and on considering the practicability of forming an avenue from Great Eastcheap to St. Mi rhael's Church. They represented that at present the state a the funds would not admit of carrying into effect improvements so desirable ; that the extensive im provements in progress from Lad-lane to the Post-office occasioned an expenditure so considerable, as to prevent any of the City cash being made available for these pro jects ; but that it was hoped the former would soon be undertaken, and that other great improvements would follow as speedily as possible. After some observations from Mr. Wire, Mr. Ander ten, and Mr. King, Mr. R. L. JONES said that the Southwark Bridge Im provement was an object of great consideration and in terest in the Parliamentary Committee, before whom it would be revived early in the Session. There would, however, be no use in throwing open that bridge without having proper avenues to it.—(Hear, hear.) In the Committee it was ascertained that the improvements at the we end of Cheapside and at Southwark Bridge could be aceomplit:l4 for the sum of 20,0001., and that sum was not considered any serious bar. He regretted that the Corporation- had not larger funds at command to go on with more extensive improvements, in preportio INTERMENT OF THE DEAD WITHIN THE CITY. Mr. ANDERTON said that he rose to submit a motion of interest and importance to rich and poor. He was able to show, if the Court thought it necessary, that there was the most unanswerable arguments for applying to the Legislature to prevent the sepulture of the dead in future in the City of London, the only great city in the world, he believed, in which the practice was per mitted.—(Hear, hear, and cries of " Refer it at once to a Committee.") He should take the hint, as the Court appeared to be unanimous on the subject. He then moved—" That it be referred to the City Lands' Com mittee to examine into the means of sepulture in the City of London, and the state and condition of all the churchyards, places, and vaults, for burying the dead therein, and also whether it is expedient that an end should be put to the interment of the dead within the City, and to report thereon to this Court." The motion was carried unanimously. fir PETER LAURIE gave notice of a motion, "that it be referred to the Committee for general purposes, to consider the propriety of removing the unnecessary and unsightly attic projecture over the pediment of the por tico of the Mansion-house, and to report their opinion thereon to this Court."—Adjourned. SHERIFF'S COURT. SESSIONS-HOUSE, NEWINGTON—JULY 29. (Before Mr. Under-Sheriff ABBOTT.) THE SURREY ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS-BOYS V. CROSS. This was an action for trespass, the damages being laid at 1001. Mr. James, the barrister, said the plaintiff in the case was a gentleman of the name of Boys, belonging to the mercantile establishment of Messrs. Baring Brothers and Co., and the defendant was Mr. Cross, the proprietor of the Surrey Zoological Gardens, and the action was brought to recover, at the hands of a Jury, compensation in damages for the injury done to the plaintiff's premises by the defendant, who, in his plea, admitted he was guilty of a nuisance. Mr. Boys was the occupier of a detached cottage, situated at No. 5, West-street, and within twenty or thirty yards of the Gardens. Of these premises he had an unexpired lease of forty years, having already occupied them for nearly twenty years. He men tioned this to show that instead of his going to, the nuisance came to him. The nuisance complained of was occasioned by Mr. Cross in the exertions which he made to amuse the public, Latterly Mr. Cross had thought proper to extend the amusements of his exhibition by adding the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, the novelty of which nightly brought some 12,000 or 16,000 persons to the gardens for the purpose of witnessing the display of fireworks. About eleven o'clock at night this exhibition took place. Amongst the discharges were a description of fireworks called maroons, and which he believed were discharged from mortars. These were filled with gunpowder and other dangerous substances, and as they fell into the plaintiff's garden in an ignited state, he was nightly ap prehensive of having his house set on fire. This was not all, for huge rocket sticks (some of which were six feet long, fell into his grounds, and if any of the family ven tured there they stood the chance of being transfixed by them. Mr. Boys being anxious to be upon good terms with Mr. Cross, had repeatedly remonstrated with him, but to no purpose ; and finding the nuisance not abated he had offered to let Mr. Cross have his premises, find ing it impossible to live in them with any degree of com fort, although Mr. Boys was only paying a ground rent of 101. a year ; the place before the wild beasts and Ve suvius came there was worth 701. a year, whereas now it would not produce 501. a year, and that the lease was de preciated in value 3201. With these remarks he would call witnesses in support of the case. Mr. James Greenstreat, of the Stamp-office, stated ,that he was the occupier of No. 4, West-street. For two years the "Eruption of Mount Vesuvius" took place, varying from two to four nights in each week during the season. Rockets were discharged. There was plenty of smoke, and a sulphurous smell, unpleasant and obnoxious. The rocket sticks which came down perpendicularly had broken the skylight. A hundred of them had fallen in his garden, all of them ignited, and some in a blaze. Misses C. and E. Humpleby, relatives of Mrs. Boys, gave evidence as to the constant state of alarm the family was in. Mr. C. Hoggart, auctioneer, proved the value of the premises previously to the introduction of the fireworks, and the depreciation since, which was upwards of 201. a year. He very much doubted whether a purchaser could now be found for them. Mr. COWLING, on behalf of the defendant, said that notwithstanding the powerful and able address of Mr. James, he considered that this action might have been spared. Taking the statement of the plaintiff's wit nesses, the exhibition of the fireworks had gone on for four years. Was it not evident that, being tired of his property, he wanted Mr. Cross to purchase it, and because he declined doing so, he commenced the present action. No action had ever been brought against the proprietors of Vauxhall for a similar exhibition, and there it was midnight before it took place. It was only when the wind was high that the fragments of paper were carried into the plaintiff's ground, and over that element they had no control. From the pleadings the verdict must be for the plaintiff; at the same time a farthing would be suffi cient. Under• Sheriff ABBOTT explained the law of the case to the Jury. After consulting together for some minutes, the Jury found for the plaintiff—Damages 301. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME ClRCUlT—Maidstone, July 29. CIVIL SIDE. GEORGE V. BANKS, ESQ., AND ANOTHER. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a dentist, in Old Burlington-street, against the defendant, the High Sheriff of the county of Kent, and one of his offi cers, for alleged false imprisonment. Mr. Platt and Mr. Petersdorff were for the plaintiff, and Mr. Sergeant Channell and Mr. Clarkson for the de fendant. Mr. Platt, for the plaintiff, stated the case, and said that the plaintiff was a respectable gentleman, a member of the College of Surgeons, and at present carrying on the business of .a dentist in Old Burlington-street, and he brought the present action against the Sheriff for having, by his agent, restrained his liberty in the most unwarrantable manner. The Learned Counsel theft went on to say that a person named Bressy having some claim upon a gentleman named Cartwright, a cousin to the plaintiff, he instituted proceedings against him and obtained in due course a writ for his ar rest. That gentleman denied the justice of the claim made upon him, and having settled all his other affairs, he was on the point of proceeding abroad, and it was arranged that he and the plaintiff, and some other friends should dine together at Graves end before his departure, and they accordingly did so, and, in the midst of the entertainment the plaintiff 'was called out of the room by Arnold, a sheriff's officer, who insisted that he was Mr. Cartwright, and, not withstanding the plaintiff's friends assured him that lie was mistaken, and that he was warned by the plaintiff of the consequences, he persisted in ar resting' him and conveying him to a lock-up house, where he was kept until the next night, when - some persons said to Arnold, " God bless me, you've got the wrong man," and the plaintiff was then set at liberty. The Learned Counsel then, at some length, pro ceeded to comment upon the illegal character of the act that had been committed, and said that the conduct of the officer was most unjustifiable, and that his proper course would have been to have taken some one with him to identify the party who should have been taken in execution, and not have laid hold of the first man he met with, as he appeared to have done in the present instance. Witnesses were called for the prosecution, when ' Mr. Sergeant CHANNEL addressed the Jury, and said he had the honour to appear on behalf of the Sheriff on the present occasion, and, notwithstanding what his learned friend had said, and the evidence that had been adduced, he had no doubt that when the Jury were made acquainted with the real facts of the case, that they would say by their verdict that the plaintiff had no claim for compensation at their hands. The Learned Counsel then went on to say that he should be able to satisfy the Jury that the arrest of the plaintiff, and all the subsequent proceedings on his part, were a mere trick to defeat the law, and to enable Cartwright to make his escape and evade the payment of the claim made upon him. lie then called a number of persons to prove these statements, when The Chief Justice TINDAL summed up, and the Jury, after deliberating for some time, returned a verdict for the defendants. NORFOLK ClRCUlT—Norwich, July 28. (Before Mr. Baron ALDERSON and a Special Jury.) PALMER. V. IRVING. This wits an action upon a policy for the sum of 1,5001., effected upon the life of one Thomas Howes, in No vember last. Mr. Thesiger, Mr. Andrews, Mr. Palmer, and Mr. Byles, were counsel for the plaintiff ; Mr. Law (the Re corder of London), Mr. Gunning, and Mr. O'Malley, for the defendant. The trial occupied the entire day, and at a late hour adjourned until nine o'clock to-morrow. The case excites unbounded interest in the county. The plaintiff is a person of great respectability ; he is at present Mayor of Great Yarmouth. The defendant is the chairman of the Alliance London Assurance Com pany. The defence rests upon an alleged fraudulent concealment by Howes, the assured, from the office of the fact of his being at the time of effecting the policy addicted to habits of intemperance, and of his being afflicted with that most dreadful disorder, consumption. The evidence for the plaintiff was concluded to-day, and Mr. LAW addressed the Jury in a most able and argu mentative speech on behalf of the defendant, after which the Court adjourned. CuowN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice WILLIAms.) . John Self stood charged with the murder of Jemimali Stimpson, on Saturday, the 17th inst. Mr. Evans! conducted the case for the prosecution, and called a great number of witnesses, who established the folloWing horrid tale, the particulars of which, from the .recent occurrence, are rife throughout this extensive county, The prisoner is a labourer, aged 20 years, and resides in a cottage near Wymondham, with his father's family, about two 'miles from the dwelling of the deceased, a girl of 15, with whom, however, lic7(lid nut seem `,..o.hae had any acquaintance before the day of her death. This being the position of the parties, it appeared from the testimony of a boy named Duffield, that he and the girl were at work, cutting thistles and " keeping crows" in a turnip field, about a mile frogs the dwellings of the deceased and of the prisoner, who was also at work on a drift-way called " the Doke," just by the turnip field. Having worked all day, the boy Duffield left the field to get his dinner, leaving the prisoner and the deceased, who had struck up tda acquaintance at their meal, near the embers of a fire, the deceased being seated on a bundle of old sticks which Duffield had picked up for her during the morning. At this time they both used a knife. On the return of the boy they had resumed their labour, and so continued till four o'clock, when the deceased quitted the field with Duffield, who accom panied her as far as a gate in an adjoining field, from which he watched her on her path till she came up to a gap leading into a barley field called " the Gaires Close," where the prisoner had just before arr i ve d, the boy having seen him proceeding thither from his own work with the spade over his shoulder. After this the prisoner and the deceased entered the close, and were hidden from further observation by the intervention of a high hedge. The prisoner was next proved to have been seen in a somewhat circuitous path homewards, by two or three labourers, with his spade on his shoulder as before, just at half-past four o'clock, a fact whi c h was e li c it e d by the production of the prisoner's watch, in answer to a query of a passer-by. He was next shown to have reached his home, when he sat down to finish braiding a straw-hat for his brother, in which occupation he passed the evening, and retired to rest at his usual hour. Not so, however, the poor deceased, whose absence from home caused, as might be imagined, not only:great anxiety, but a prompt search. This was ineffectual on the Saturday, but on Sunday her distressed father and uncles, accom panied by other friends, proceeded to the turnip-field and so on to the gap already mentioned, where they found traces of the " old sticks," while a large spot of blood and the trampled grass indicated the enactment of some horrid deed at a very recent period. A further search led the party to observe a track across the barley, and following this they came to a pond, in which they found the body of the deceased, which presented evident proofs of her having been most foully murdered. The body, which was with difficulty extricated from the water, was taken to a neighbouring farm, and thence to the humble home which she had so recently quitted in health awl happi ness. In the mean time the police proceeded to the house of the prisoner, who was then absent from home. A search, however, was instituted, and in his room was found a pair of trousers behind his bed, while a coat, which contained the knife of the deceased, waistcoat; bloody cloth, wet stockings, and a spade, were discovered in an outhouse. The trousers and spade on being shown to the surgeon were pronounced by him to be deeply spotted with blood, whereupon a constable set out in pur suit of the supposed offender, who was soon after met with, walking about as usual in the neighbourhood. On being met by the constable and asked by him whether he knew anything of the murder, he said " No ;" and ac counted for the blood on his trousers by saying that he had been working together with J em Wright, who had " cut his finger with some stubbs," a statement which Wright to-day denied the truth of. In addition to these facts, the brother of the prisoner was called to prove that the clothes found at his father's house were those worn by the prisoner on the day in question. He on cross-examination asserted that his brother had never changed a single article of his dress on the evening of Saturday, the 17th, and he said that the trousers were not concealed, but hung over the bed ; that the stockings, which were supposed to have been wet through immer sion in the pond while worn by the prisoner, were the property of his father, who had worn them while at work in a wet ditch on the' Friday, and the awkward ap pearance of the bloody cloth (which was supposed to have contained the prisoner's dinner) was explained by this witness, who swore that a bag was always used by the prisoner for that purpose ; and, further, that the cloth in 'question had been used for the purpipse of staunching the flow of blood from a wound accidentally inflicted upon the hand of his little nephew, in whose possession he had seen it all bloody on FiAday. Mr. PRENDERGAST, at the close of the case for the Crown, which occupied the whole day, addressed the Jury in a speech characterised by great force of reason ing, and called several witnesses, who, as well as almost all the witnesses for the prosecution, gave the prisoner the benefit of a most exemplary character for kindness of disposition. His LORDMIP having summed up the whole evidence with great care and perspicuit', the Jury considered to gether for about a quarter of an hour, when they found the prisoner Guilty. The Learned JUDGE immediately sentenced the un happy youth to die, holding out not the slightest hope of mercy on this side the grave. The prisoner conducted himself throughout the trial, and at its conclusion, with singular apathy, precisely, indeed, as might have been expected from one who had shown so little consideration or feeling after having committed the murder. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARYLEBONE. _ _ _ Yesterday Elizabeth Maxwell was placed at the bar for final examination, on the charge of having attempted to murder her husband, James Maxwell, by plunging into his back a dessert knife. A few particulars connected with the case have already appeared, and it will be reme m b ere d th a t a t the firstin vestigation, which was gone into on the 12th inst., the sufferer was unable to attend in consequenc e o f his being confined to his bed in Middlesex Hospital, in which In stitution he remained for some time in so dangerous a condition as to render it doubtful if he would recover. Ever since the period of the first remand the prisoner had been in a very desponding state of mind, and on her being brought into the court yesterday burst into a flood of tears, at the same time covering her face with her hands. The wounded man, who still seemed to be suf fering very much from weakness, got up with some dif ficulty into the witness-box, when his wife looldr.. stead fastly at him, and, on his turning towards he:' n _ e eared so much overpowered by his f ee lings AS be scarcely able to stand. The prosecutor, the driver of one of Hansom's patent st"..',,ed with consider a %l e re l uctance cabs, on being sworn, the particulars of :lie case, and with tears in his eyes, informed the Magistrate that he did not wish to press the charge. Geor6 Hunt, Gloucester-mews, deposed, that on the day in question, between one and two o'clock, he went home and found the prisoner sitting in his house crying ; he asked her what it was for, when she said, that for two hours she had been following her husband, who was in company of Mrs. Cooper. They were out eating and drinking together, and her (prisoner's) feelings were more than she could endure. Edmund Weller, one of the .party at the public-house, said that he saw the prisoner look in at the parlour-door. She went away, and in a qua of an hour afterwards she returned. She immediately quitted as before, and at the same moment prosecutor exclaimed " See what's the matter with my back." Witness told him he was stabbed, and drew from his back a white handled dessert knife ; he then led him to a surgeon's in the neighbour hood, and subsequently conveyed him in a cab to the hospital. Mrs. Cooper, the female previously alluded to, stated that, while sitting in the parlour of the City of Here ford, she saw the door open ; one of the company said to Maxwell, " that's your wife, " when he replied, " No, it's not, she wouldn't do meet a thing as come after me." .Soon after this she (witness) board a voice exclaim— " Take that," and at the SUM* instant the door, which had been opened by some one, shut to. Maxwell fell with his head across the table, miring to Weller, " Oh, take that out !" Weller then took from Maxwell's back a knife, and witness saw no mire ; she was so much ter rified that she left the house. .. _. The surgeon from th e h os pital was examined, and his evidence went to show that_ the wound inflicted was of a very serious and alarming description. The prisoner was fully committed for trial. PoisoNs:—Cotsiderable sensation has been cre ated in the scientific circles by the report of the commis sion of the Academy on the experiments performed by M. Orfila for the discovery of poison in the human body by the use of Marsh's apparatus. The commission, which is composed of the first chemists of France, unhesitatingly declares that the pretended proofs of metallic stains pro duced by this apparatus are for the greater part fallaci ous ; in other words, that the persons condemned to death on charges of poisoning upon the experiments of M. Orfila, without other proof, were judicially mur dered. M. Orfila having fre vently declared as a wit ness on the trials of those pers6ns that his experiments were infallible,—a declaration which carried conviction to the minds of the Juries, he naturally attempts to con trovert the opinion of thecommission; but he does so with much feebleness, and for the present, at least, he is lost in public opinion. You will remember that in the case of Madame Laffarge, the counsel for the defence were triumphant until M. Orfila went down to perform his experiments, and that the Jury returned a verdict en tirely on his evidence, although several eminent scientific men then declared, as the commission now does, that his experiments were not proofs. But for M. Orfila, Madame Laffarge, against whom legal proof was wanting, what ever might be the moral impression of the Jury, must have had an acquittal ; for in her case the Circumstan tial evidence bore as much in her favour as against her. The feelings of M. Orfila now are not to be envied for although no man doubts his conscientiousness, it is the general opinion that in the endeavour to establish his theory, and convey to the public the impression which he himself felt as to the certainty of his experiments, he bore in all cases with unrelenting severity upon the ac cused. So great is the sensation produced by the report of the Academy, that it is not probable he will again have an opportunity of turning the scale of justice in favour of the prosecutor by such evidence as has hitherto been received.—Letter front Paris. Sir Thomas Wilde visited Birmingham on ThursdaY, and, accompanied by one of our townsmen, inspected a considerable number of our more interesting manufactories. Sir Thomas was accompanied by his lady. In the course of his inspection we rather fear Sir Thomas would find, . with much that was curious and instructive, a degree of depression for which he was but indifferently prepared. We are much mistaken if, in his perambulation, he listened to one individual from whose mouth the earnest complaint of trade, ruined or ruinous, did not fall upon his ear. We believe, indeed, that at no period in its history has the industrious trader of Birmingham felt more difficulty in keeping his way than at this moment—Birmingham Journal Bell's Life in London: of Sunday, August 1„ will contain a most copious account of Goodwood Races, with Engravings of the Cups, Matches of Cricket at Lord's, Regattas, and all other Sporting Matters.
