As a disinfectant it is infinitely more efficient than Chloride of Soda ; and, when diluted with water, It forms a delightful wash for the face and hands, imparting a Clear and healthy bloom to the complexion. It consists of an extract of various medicinal herbs, mixed with the purest spirits of wine. It posSesses a pleasant taste and a delightful perfume ; and forms an elegant appendage to the toilet.

ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SO CIETY OF ENGLAND. SOUTHAMPTON, 'TUESDAY EVENING.—The proceedings of the Society at this place commenced this morning with the exhibition of implements, the number of which was greater than on any former occasion. The present exhibition is not, however, so much distinguished for novelty, in this respect, as for the decided improvements which have been made on former inventions. This being the case, it might perhaps be invidious to particularise ; and we shall, therefore, content ourselves with subjoining a list of the prizes, and proceed at :once.to describe the trial of the implements, which was de cidedly the most interesting feature in the day's proceedings. We should, however, premise that, although not yet so full as had been expected, there have been many distinguished arrivals at Southampton.. The Duke of Cambridge will ar rive to-marrow, and be received by the Mayor and Corpora tion with all.the honours due to a Prince of the Blood Royal. Fhe Duke of Richmond, the Duke of Devonshire, the Duke of Beaufort, the Marquis Conyngham, Earl Dude, Earl Spencer, Lord and Lady P a l merston, an d a num b er o f other fashionables arrived this morning, but the great influx of company is expected to-morrow, when I will send you a more specific account of the arrivals. EXHIBITION OF THE WORKING OF THE IMPLEMENTS. This was the •most interesting portion of the day's pro ceeding, And attracted universal attention. The time fixed for. the public ..trial. of the agricultural implements to take place :Was twelve o'clock. For some hours previous to that time the road leading from Southampton to the trial ground was thronged with vehicles of every description, conveying the interested and curious to the appointed place, distant about four miles from Southampton, on the farm of Mr. C. Caters at. Swathling.. Many thousand persons were on the ground, consisting of the agriculturists of Hampshire and the adjoining counties, as well as of numbers from the extreme western counties. The Queen, Brunswick, and two other steamers arrived in the morning from Plymouth and Corn wall, full of passengers. All the steamers from the Isle of Wight-were also full, notwithstanding many persons were prevented from coming in consequence of the races. Among the parties on the ground we noticed most of the noblemen and gentlemen whose names we have already given, and the landed proprietors of the county. The test trials to deter mine the merits of the several implements took place yester day and Saturday, but were strictly private, the public not being allowed to approach nearer than the outside of the fields in whickthe implements were tried. These trials were conducted with great care and fairness, and even the exhibi tions of the various implements were confined to the attend ance upon their own implements, and were not allowed to inspect the working of the others. The judges were Messrs. Outhwaite, of Cathrick, York shire, and another gentleman, who conducted the proceedings Most impartially, and in a manner which gave general satis faction. The implements selected for the public exhibition of their working,. were those previously selected for compe tition before the judges in the private trials, which had occu pied the two previous days—those adapted for light land, at Mr. Cater's farm, at Swathling ; and those adapted for heavy land, at Mr. Spooner's, at Eling. The field selected for the public trial to-day is a level one of considerable extent, ad joining the railway, apd is a clover ley. The ground was not in good order for working, in consequence of its being un usually hard from the long drought. Precisely at twelve o'clock the ploughing match commenced. There were six teen ploughs started, among which were two specimens of American ploughs, presented by Professor Col. The con trast between the working of these transatlantic ploughs and the English ones was most striking, and was the most per fectpractiCal refutation of, the self - congratulating remarks of Daniel Webiter, wlio, on his return from E ng l an d, s t a t e d that 'he had not seen any implements in England worthy of comparison With those of America. We particularly ex an'iltied 'the work of these plOitghs, and, compared with the level and accurate furrOWs made by the English plough, which appeared as though cut out by a plane, were coarse, rough, and irregular. The work of the competing plough, with th e t wo excep tions we have alluded to, was generally good, especially so, considering the state of the soil. One of the ploughs was a new implement made by Messrs. J. R. and A. Ransome, of Ipswich, and was in consequence of having a moveable nose piece, which adjusted the pitch of the share eith er t o t a k e more or less hold of the ground or literally to give it an in clination more or less towards the land. This plough won the prize of 10/. and a silver medal, in competing with the others as a heavy land plough ; and also won th e p r i ze o f 10/. and a silver medal, in its competitiou on the light land. Another of the ploughs was also a new instrument, by the same exhibitors, the ,peculiar feature of which is, that the mould board of this plough is adapted for turning furrows four and a half inches deep, and nine inches wide, so as to leave the angle of the furrow-slice precisely at forty five degrees. There was another and a strong plough, by the same exhibitors, fitted for deep ploughing in tenacious land. Mr. Lowcock's patent plough for laying furrows all in one direction, and which was awarded a prize Of 5/., was another of the competitors. An iron two-wheel pulverizing plough, invented by Wil liam Mason, , constructed -for a light soil with the mould • board - made to jet wider or narrower as required, and pulverizing knives attached for breaking up old pas tures, stony soils, or land that required, harrowing and bringing to a finer tilth, was one of the ploughs tried, and the remaining others were A One-wheel or sowing plough, by Messrs. Taskor and Fowle, of Waterloo Iron;works, Andover, which may be used With or without the skim coulter. An iron sowing plough, by. the Earl of Ducie, which oti-- tained 5/. at the Royal Agricultural Society's meeting at Bristol. A two-wheel wrought-iron plough, with patent coulter, by Messrs. Saunders, Williams, and Taylor, of Bedford, which is fitted for wheel or swing plough, and is worked by two or four horses. A one-wheel plough, by Mr. Hugh Carson, of Warminster, suited for-light lands. A patent iron plough for sand and other light land. It is made principally of wrought iron. An iron plough, trussed beam, and steel breast, invented by Itansothe, and manufactured by Messrs. Sims and Brown, of Tollard Royal, Dorsetshire. A one- wheel plough, invented by the exhibitors, Messrs. Barratt, Exhall, and Andrews, of Reading, which is filled with an open turn furrow for ploughing loamy and other ad hesive soils, as it breaks the lower part of the furrow, and thus admits the air. This plough is extremely light, and has very great ease of draught. Immediately after the termination of the ploughing match, the other implements, consisting of drills, harrows, clod crushers, and numerous other articles, were tried in an ad joining field, all of which seemed to excite general attention. Throughout the day the trains continued to bring in a great number of cattle for the show on Thursday, as the exhibition of stock will be the next great point of attraction. The Council dinner will take place to-morrow. ROYAL SOUTH LONDON FLORI CULTURAL SOCIETY. Tuesday the Royal South London Floricultural Society held their second grand miscellaneous show at the Surrey Zoological Gardens, on which occasion the display of fruit, flowers, and vegetables was on a scale of unusual magnitude and excellence. There vi ere numerous tents and extensive marquees arranged in various parts of these beautiful grounds, in which the splendid specimens offered for corn petition were placed. No fewer than seventy-four prizes were offered and awarded, consisting of gold and silver medals, a silver cup, &c., in addition to various sums of money. These prizes were awarded early in the day, before the public were admitted ; and the following are the names of the successful candidates :—The first class consisted of amateurs, members only ; and those who carried off prizes for the piccotees, carnations, heartsease, &c., were Messrs. Edmonds (gold medal), Procter, jun., G. Leach, R. Headly, Trevers, jun., J. Hunt, W. Hall, J. Edwards, Schroder, F. B. Garty, and S. J. Cox, and the Rev. A. H. Matthews. The prizes to the second class (gentlemen's gardeners, entering in their own names), for flowers, fruit, and vegetables, were given to Messrs. Atlee (gold medal), Hemp, Ilatterton, A. Parsons, J. Bruce, C. Embleton, Welsh, and Parsons. The third class consisted of specimens sent in by nurserymen, market gardeners, and florists, The - gold medal was awarded to Mr. Jackson, and the various Silver ones to Messrs. Fairbairn, Bushell, Jackson, Paul, Willmer, Norman, Bates, Keynes, Brown, Bursill, H. Chapman, J. Gains, and Flicker. Other prizes, open to all classes, were given to the Rev. A. H: Matthews and Messrs. Plant, Dan, Schroder, Bruce, Chuchill, Lyred, and Norman. The silver cup, value 5/. 55., offered by Mr. John Dickson, for the best twelve white-ground piccotees, dissimilar blooms, was won by Mr. Barnard ; and the 5/. given by Mr. James Coppock, for the best collection of miscellaneous plants in the gardens, was awarded to Mr. J. Bruce. Mr. Turner was the successful competitor for the Linnrean medal, for the best collection of cut indigenous plants in flower. The above enumeration will give an idea of the extent of the prizes bestowed under the auspices of this Society; and many of the persons men tioned gained more than one medal, some several. The flower-show was allowed on every hand to equal all, and to surpass many former exhibitions, and the fruit was likewise remarkably fine. The vegetables, too, deserve high, praise. There were some magnificent specimens, especially of cucum bers, some of which were of enormous size. The Duke of Cambridge, and the Prince of Mecklenburgh Strelitz visited the Gardens early in the morning, and were highly gratified with the exhibition. The company was extremely numerous throughout the day, and towards evening the extensive grounds were completely thronged. The attraction was truly sufficiently powerful, for, in addition to the splendid exhibi tion of the day, and the usual promenade concerts, the colossal 'representation of London in the olden time, and the great fire thereof, there was displayed (for the first time) the beautiful and highly interesting model of Venice, which is so well known, and has become so celebrated for its perfect and elaborate workmanship, which shows every palace, church, and even house, in that city of the waters. This great addi tional attraction to the Gardens will continue to be exhibited throughout the season. The amusements were not concluded until a late hour of the evening. THE EARL of MANSFIELD'S FETE CHAMPETRE' at CAEN WOOD. The Earl of Mansfield gave a fete champetre, on Tuesday afternoon, at his Lordship's seat at Caen Wood, Hampstead, which was honoured by the presence of their Royal High nesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Duchess of Glou cester, and the Hereditary Grand Duke and Duchess of Mecklenburgh Strelitz, and above seven hundred of the lead ing aristocracy. The preparations for the fete had been in progress during the whole of last week, for it was necessary that a spacious temporary structure, sufficiently large to accommodate the numerous circle invited, should be erected. The weather was most propitiotis, and crowds of respectably-dressed per sons congregated on the heath and at the lodge-gates, to witness the arrival of the severAmembers of the Royal Fkmily and the noble visiPers; a strong body of the police being sta tioned at different points of the road to preserve order, and to remedy any confusion that might arise from the number of carriages which would, of necessity, collect in the immediate vicinity of the house. At half-past three the carriages began to set down com pany, and for two hours and a half there was a constant —.e Th WE'r. ry attractive those of the Duke and Duchess of Beaufort. Earl and Countess of Powis, Marchioness of Ailesbury, Earl and Countess of Beverley, Earl and Countess of Eldon, Countess Brownlow, Lord Foley, &c., demanding more espe cial mention. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge, accom panied by the Hereditary Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Mecklenburgh Strelitz, and attended by Baron Knese beck, was first to arrive, the royal carriage entering the ap proach to the mansion at ten minutes past five, preceded by outriders in their scarlet liveries. The Earl of Mansfield was at the entrance to receive the royal guests as they alighted from the carriage, and the Dowager Countess of Mansfield had advanced to the lobby to greet the illustrious visitors as they arrived. The royal party were forthwith conducted through the suite of saloons to the library, where many of the leading company had met to offer their congratulations. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester came shortly after, her royal brother the Duke of Cambridge bearing her Royal Highness company. Lady Caroline Murray and the Hon. Captain Liddell were in waiting on the Duchess. As those respected members of the Royal Family descended from their carnage, the Dowager Countess of Mansfield, having been timely informed of the royal approach, received them, the Duchess of Gloucester and her Ladyship exchanging an affec tionate salutation, when their Royal Highnesses were ushered to the library. The suite of drawing-rooms, with the music-room, corn-' prising seven elegant apartments, were all opened for the re ception. The Duke of Wellington was among the visitors, the Noble and Gallant Duke arriving shortly after the Royal Family. As his Grace entered the lodge gates he was warmly Cheered by the assemblage of persons mustered there from curiosity: Their Royal llighnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cam bridge, Duchess of Gloucester, and the Hereditary Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Mecklenburgh Strelitz, with the Earl of Mansfield and Dowager Countess of Mansfield, pre vious to dinner being announced, promenaded the terrace and went through the flower gardens, all laid out in the pure' English style, and'with which the royal visitors were much gratified. The company dined at seven. There were at the table her, Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester, whe sat on the right of the Earl of Mansfield; the Duchess of Cambridge sitting on the left of the noble host, with the Duke of Wel lington sitting on her Royal Highness's right hand eis-a-ris sat the Dowager Countess of Mansfield, with the Duke of Cambridge and the Hereditary Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Mecklenbargh Strelitz. In addition we, observed the Duke and Duchess of Beaufort, his Excellency Baron Nieumann, Marquis of Salisbury, his Excellency M. Dedel, Marchioness of Ailesbury, Marquis and Marchioness of Ahercorn, Marchioness of Londonderry, Earl and Countess of Jersey, Earl and Countess ,of Westmoreland, Earl Dela warr, Baroness Brunow, &c. Covers were laid for upwards of thirty. We now come to the grand feature of the fete, the enor mous marquee at the eastern extremity Of the terrace lawn. It was a wonderful structure, about 150 feet long by 50 feet wide, the dome in the centre rising to the height of 50 feet. The interior was lined with scarlet and white draperies, fes tooned all round, confined by rosettes of the same colours. Suspended from the roof were some 60 chandeliers, which were of course lighted up at dusk, contributing to render the interior a gorgeous spectacle. The exterior was sur mounted by several minarets, from which floated banderols. It was boarded throughout, for it must be understood that it was subsequently to be converted into a salon de danse, and three tables, extending the whole length of the marquee, were arranged for the sumptuous fare. Above 600 persons sat - down to dinner at the same time, so the magnitude of the marquee may be imagined. It was shortly before eight when the dinner party in the tent retired, and the grounds were promenaded by the ma jority of the visitors. At dusk the grounds were illuminated by more than 15,000 variegated lamps. The parterres of the flower gardens were bordered with coloured lamps, and in the trees various coloured. lamps were suspended resem bling artificial fruit. Her .Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge and the Hereditary Grand Duke and Grand Duchess retired about eight o'clock to go to the Italian Opera. -Their Royal Highnesses the Duke of Cambridge and Duchess of Gloucester remained to a' more advanced hour. There was a superb display of. fireworks at nine o'clock on the verdant lawn, at the.verge of the lake, : which lasted nearly an hour. . . Dancing was-kept up • with untiring zeal until after midnight. Wheat reaping will commence in this neighbour hood in the next week. During the last few days a great change has taken place, and a few more warm days will render the greater part of the wheat on the chalk hills fit for the sickle.— Hants 7'elegraph. The wounded men from the army of Gwalior dis embarked from the ship Windsor, on the morning of the 22d instant, and proceeded forthwith to Chatham, in medical charge of Surgeon Wood, 9th Royal Lancers, and Assistant surgeon Mapleton, her' Majestf,s 40th Foot; who were selected at Gwalior for this arduous duty. It would appear that the result has been most satisfactory, only one casualty having occurred amongst those brave fellows on the voyage. It is gratifying to learn, too, the very great kindness and attention that were evinced towards the wounded by the authorities in India, in proof of which we need only mention, that the Governor-General himself visited and comforted them in the field of battle, and repeatedly in their respective hospitals, and subsequently, when at Calcutta, he personally superintended the arrangements that were being made for their embarkation. It &IL WAY INTELLIGENCE. INCREASE OF RAILWAY TRAFFIC. The following is the increase on the traffic returns for the half-year ending June 30, 1844, as compared with those for the same period last year : Birmingham and Derby Birmingham and Gloucester... 1,094 Chester and Birkenhead ..... . .. 1,294 Edinburgh and Glasgow • Glasgow, Paisley, Kilmarnock, and Ayr 7,737 Grand Junction Great North of England Greitt Western Liverpool and Manchester London and Birmingham.... 18,026 London and Brighton ' London and South-Western 8,513 _ ___ Manchester and Birmingham 10,349 Manchester, Bolton, and Bury Manchester and Leeds 18,347 Midland Counties . North Midland ... 11,591 North Union 7,208 Sheffield and Manchester Ulster.. York and North Midland 2,287 Total increase for the half-year, on the above 21 railways, 196,322/. The large increase in the Great Western traffic is partially accounted for by the opening of twenty-two additional miles of the line within the last six months; but even taking this fact into consideration, the addition to the previous income of the company is still very considerable. The most remark able advance, having reference of course to the length of the line, only fifty miles, is presented, however, by the Man chester and Leeds nailway ; and the two weeks which have elapsed since the above return was made up go to prove that the income of the company is still rapidly tending upwards.. The receipts for the week ending July 6 were 7,493/., against 6,222/. in the same week of last year, and those for July 13 were 7,9011. against 6,2751. in the corresponding week 0f1843, a ratio of improvement which leaves every other railway far in the rear. We allude to these circumstances because the position of the Manchester and Leeds line, and the system on which it has been managed, are peculiar. Third-class carriages, at extremely low fares, have been employed upon it to a greater extent than on any other railway in the king dom ; and it 'is gratifying to find that the great share of public accommodation thus afforded has resulted in a large measure of prosperity to the company. THE LONDON WEATHER. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir,—Since my last, many changes have occurred in the weather, as the provincial and the foreign papers will attest; but still there is an extraordinary influence prevailing, as the thermometer presents. There have been the same circuitous currents, arising from the south-west or north-east, crossing each other at different altitudes, and subsiding with storms; but this has continued so long;that we are led to think of' some unusual planetary influence is prevailing against the ordinary course. This day the thermometer stood' in the sun, south aspect, 109 deg. When placed, at 4 o'clock, upon wood, in opposi tion to its rays, the spirit reached 121 deg., whilst the other, which was longitudinal, was only 102 deg. The shade ther mometer indicated, in the sheltered position, 84 deg. 5 min. ; and the most extraordinary indication was the heat of last night, which `vas not, less than 63 deg., being 8 deg. above temperate heat, being a very unusual heat in the night, even in eastern nations. Seven o'Clock.—There are now signs • of wind, from the at tenuated state of the atmosphere, and there will be, probably, a storm of thunder, from the currents of electric fluid which has been generated. I remain, Sir, your subscriber, H. P. Bermondsey -square, July 23. AGRICULTURAL. LABOURERS, &c (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) Since I wrote yesterday I have seen a farmer, who paid, before the commutation of tithes took place, 28/., and who had paid since for the-same land 42/. ; that is, you see, 50 per centl Here are twamore clauses from the agreementd referred to, having relation to game. Ask yourself how a man, who IS subject to the clauses already sent you, accompanied by these and others like them, can afford to do anything with his labourers but grind them. Once a man consents, and has signed an agreement like this, he is degraded in his own eyes ; and I know several who, have signed them, but are unwilling to own it. But all these things brings the one fact into operation--; making single men work for less than the married ones, and unquenchable heart-burnings as the result : " That the said , his executors, administrators, or assigns, shall not without the permission in writing of the said —, bis heirs, or assigns, shoot, course, net, fish, or otherwise sport or destroy game, fish, or wild fowl, on the( said premises ; nor give leave to any other person or person i so to do ; but shall from time to time, and at all times, at th request of the said , his heirs, or assigns, sign notice discharging persons from doing so, or from otherwise tres passing on the said premises; and shall permit his name t be made use of in any action or actions which shall b brought by the direction of the said —, his heirs, on assigns, against any person or persons for trespassing on thd said premises, being indemnified by ,the hii heirs, or &signs; from and 'against all'txpebses thereto re lating; and shall and will, in all other respects, use his best endeavours to preserve the game, fish, and wild fowl on the said estate." Is not this tolerably stringent. when cooled with the clauses I sent you yesterday? Here is prov3ion 'bade that the farmer shall give keep to any quantity of game the land- 1 lord eati a d j a7Vac — rt the kl`p=3 , " Whereas the poor have been of late deprived of the ad--; vantages of gleaning by the custom of mowing instead of reaping the wheat crops, it is hereby agreed that the said —, his executors, or administrators, shall not in futurd mow any wheat crop without permission in writing from the said , or his agent, under forfeiture of the presest agreement." You will understand that mowing (the word has not thl same meaning here as in Scotland), by leaving less stubbl than reaping, leaves less cover for the game, and hence th farmers adopt it. As a matter of fact, all the farmers agr that it does not make the pretended difference in gleaning. Norwich, July 23. THE RUSSIAN FRIGATE AURORA) WITH PRESENTS FOR THE QUEEN, AND! GOLD. On Monday (as we stated yesterday) the above fine vessel commanded by a Vice-Admiral, came to anchor off the Cus tom-house, G;avesend. Tuesday morning, at four o'clock, several boats, con taining eighty boxes, bound with red tape, and impresse with the Custom-house seal, were landed at the wh4rf, an immediately packed in three uncovered light waggops, dra each by Ibur horses, furnished by the landlord of the Falcol Inn, Gravesend. . • Shortly before five, o'clock a Russian non-commissioned officer aml several soldiers entered the waggons, together with a police-constable from the metropolitan force in each wag-. gon, the whole being under the charge of acting Inspectoi Taylor, of the A division. The escort started, followed by the Russian Consul-Generali the Chevalier Benkhausen, and some Russian officers, and the chief officer of customs at Gravesend, in two carriages, From the weight of the boxes the waggons did not reach Blackheath until nine o'clock. They halted until half-past nine, and then went forward, escorted by some mounted police of the Greenwich, or R division,' to the Bank of Eng 4 land, which they reached at half-past ten o'clock, and en.; Jered the north gate of that establishment. The packages were then taken from the waggons,and sealed in the presence of the principal officer of Customs. The whole of the vain. able property contained in wooden boxes weighed just six tons, and were safely deposited in the vaults of the Bank of England. It was rumoured at Gravesend that the gold was sent to this country for the purpose of being refined, and that the frigate would remain three weeks in the river, for the purpose of taking it away when so prepared.

York, June 12, 1844. JAMES BIAMERTON, Chairman. CHEAP LIGHT, FDWARD PRICE and CO., Patentees and Sole' A Manufacturers of the COMPOSITE CANDLES, respectfully call the attention of the Public to the fact, that, although the price of these is somewhat higher than that of ordinary mould Candles, they are in reality much cheaper than these latter; one real Composite Candle giving about the same quantity of light as three of the moulds. They require no snuffing, and burn more brilliantly than the best wax. The purposes of economy and luxury are therefore both served at the same time by the use of these Candles. Parties intanding to try them for the first time, are earnestly requested to take care that they are served in the shops with " PRICE'S PATENT CANDLES:" the reason for this caution is given elsewhere. They are sold by most of the respectable tallow chandlers through out the kingdom, and wholesale to the trade by Edward Price and Co., Belmont, Vauxhall; and by Palmer and Co., Sutton-street, Clerkenwell. l A EA and PERRINS' c WORCESTERSHIRE Prepared from the recipe of a Nobleman in the county.

A special meeting of the Court of Sewers for the City and Liberty of Westminster and part of the County of Middlesex; was held, at the Sewers' Office, Greek-street, Soho-square„ on Tuesday, at twelve o'clock', for the purpose of receiving communication from the Hon. the Commissioners of the Mods and Forests. relative to the metropolis improvements, and for other business. Donaldson, Esq., in the chair. After a variety of minor business had been disposed of; on the motion that the Court do sanction an order of the 25th June, for rebuilding 985 feet of sewer in Wellington-street, North, Upper Wellington-street, and Bow-street, at an esti-, pate of 1,4001.95., it was intimated that Mr. Pennethorne, the surveyor to the Commissioners of Woods and Forests,; was in waiting in an adjoining room ; he was accordingly called in, and The CHAIRMAN said that he believed the proposition of the. Commissioners of Woods and Forests to the Court of Sewers! was a sum of 10s. per foot on 500 feet, and the reply by the: Court had been that 1,0501.95. ought to be their fair and just proportion of the expenses. He wished to know if Mr. Pen-, nethorne was, on the part of the Woods and Forests, pre pared to amend his offer ? Mr. PENNETHORNE begged to remind the Court that the proposed line of sewerage extended 'to other property than that of the Woods and Forests. The Mercers' Company were parties benefited. There were other parties also ; and they must remember that in making the sewers at an in creased depth, they were not so much benefiting the pro-, perty of the 'Woods and Forests, as they were consulting the interests of the district generally. He had allowed 500 feet as the extent of their proper frontage ; but a reference to the section. would show that it was really within that length.' He (Mr. Pennethorne) based .his offer to the Court of Sewers on a calculation of the cost of the work if executed by his own contractor. Mr. LESLIE begged to draw Mr. Pennethorne's attention to . the 'lBth section of the 3d and 4th of Victoria, where he thought be would find that by the terms of the 'Act the Commissioners of the. Woods and Forests were compelled to, build the new sewerage. . - • Mr. PENNETHORNE contended that the Act did not require . them to do so, and he was convinced that ho had offered every penny he was entitled to. Alter some further discussion, in which Mr. Unwin, Mr. Allanson, and Mr. White took part, it was suggested by An Hox. CommissfoxEn that Mr. Pennethorne should re .tire until the Court had determined upon the matter in question. Mr. LEiLITt said that that being an open Court there could be no necessity for such a procedure, Mr. Pennethorne was ultimately allowed to remain. The CHAIRMAN then at some length argued that the pro ' posed line would be of vast general utility, and that it should be at once commenced before the approach of winter put a stop to the undertaking. He would inform Mr. Pennethorne that it had ever been a rule with that Court in such cases as the one under discussion, where a street was widened, and one side of it entirely rebuilt, to allow the inhabitants of the standing houses the advantages of the new sewers. without a farthing of additional cost; and for this reason, that those persons were supposed to have been at the expense of the old sewerage, and it wax therefore deemed but fair to g :ve them the advantages of any new sewer which ht be ruidered necessary by an extended neighbourho his line, he was - of opinion, was essenti necessary, an Ir. Pennethorne would advance his off•rto 1/.. per fo io thought that they might then sink minor objectionS, and at once set about the undertaking. This was the time to do so, while, the street was in a disorganised stake, for, indepen dently- of the additional expense, it would be rather foolish to wait until the street was completed, and the pavements laid, before they commenced their excavations. Mr. PENNETHORNE would, in order to avoid any difference make an offer on the part of the Woods and Forests of 575 L towards the expenses of the line. Mr. Wiliam was of opinion that the offer was a very liberal one, and ought to be accepted by the Court, and he would put into writing, and move, a resolution to that effect. Mr. LESLIE thought that _the Act of Parliament he had quoted decided that the Woods and Forests should, in this case, build the sewerage at their own expense. He had no idea of entailing- an expense upon the district for the mere s purpose of benefiting the property of certain parties. Ile believed that Belton-street had formerly been a miaow and inconvenient thoroughfare. Now it - was to be widened twenty-four feet, and the old sewers would be quite inade quate to answer the purposes of the new improvements, and therefore he contended that the Act . was quite explicit on the point, and that it was imperative on the Woods and Forests to do the work themselves without applying to that Court for assistance. If they allowed this work to be commenced without the sanction of ether parties interested, it " might be afterwards a matter of considerable diffi culty so to equalise the demand upon each, that all would be satisfied. They might then argue that they could have constructed better sewers at a less expense, and they might think themselves justified in consequence in deducting a certain sum or sums throughout the piece. He thought the wiser course would be, before they commenced this undertaking, to have a specific report from their own officers accompanied with drawings; and they should have all questions upon the subject. satisfactorily answered to the Court. He thought they 'should not go into this question on the present occasion, and one principal ground of his objec tion was that they bad no proposition before the Court to rescind - the - former order, which required the works to be commenced if the Commissioners of Woods and Forests ad vanced 1,050/. 9s. The CHAIRMAN said that Mr. White's motion approved of the offer made by Mr. Pennethorne. Mr. LESLIE begged to ask a question of Mr. Pennethorne. If the Mercers' Company, and the other parties interested in this line, refused to be their fair share of the expenses in curred,:wouldhe. in the event of his proposition being ac cepted by tire Court that day, expect that the Court would _complete the work, irrespective of the other parties ? Mr. PV.NNETHORNE said he Lb mild expect so assuredly. The . CHAMMAN said that Mr. Pennethorne mustunderstand that it was in the power of the Court to rescind any resolu tion of to-ddy if they deemed it advisable to do so. But he thought they might proceed with the lower part of Welling ton-street, and, in the meantime, come to some arrangement with the Woods and Forests, the Mercers' Company, and the other interested parties. Mr. ALLANSON suppOrted Mr. Leslie, and an amendment was moved on Mr. White's motion. The- original motion and amendment were put by the Chairman, when the former was carried by a majority of 3. Mr. begged to congratulate Mr. Pennethorne on his good days' work.—(Laughter.) The CHAIRMAN then proposed that the works'should be at • once commencedat the Wellington-street end, and an amend ment was moved by Mr. Leslie, which was, however, nega tived, after some discussion. Mr. LESLIE then moved the motion of which he had given. notice--" That the works (nom Wellington-street to Char lotte-street, Bloomsbury, ordered 1)3 the Court on the 25th Jitney on the eastern division of the Westminster sewers he the subject of a special contract after public advertisement, and that the excavations aad the construction, &c., be sepa rately tendered for." Mr. BrsG seconded the motion, which was opposed by Messrs.Unwin and Hawkes, on the ground that the Court had entered into an agreement with the present contractor until ➢lichaelmas next, and that it would therefore be unfair to turn round upon that gentleman now in the way ➢lr. Leslie wished. The motion was ultimately lost upon being put from the Chair. The Court, after disposing of several reports, examining he contractors' books, &c., adiourned at a late MaiOr-General Morison has paired off for the remainder of the session with Sir John Yarde Buller, Bart. THE IRON STEAM-BOAT COMPANY.—The Directors and Shareholders of this Company had their annual trip to commemorate its formation on Tuesday. The trip on this oc casion was from London-bridge to Purfleet. The company, consisting of the Directors and their friends, both ladies and gentlemen, were embarked at half-past ten o'clock, on board the Queen of the Thames steamer, and landed at Purfleet at two o'clock, whence they proceeded to the grounds of Mr. Whitbread, which were very kindly, by.leave of the proprietor, placed at their disposal, and in one part of which 'an . elegant marquee, the property of Mr. Lee, was placed for Weir accommodation. The company, after view ing the grounds and promenading through the walks cut in the woods were regaled beneath the marquee with an elegant repast, at which Mr. Chaplin presided, and at which they were plentifully supplied with ice, prepared by artificial means by Mr. Sweeting, whose patent apparatus was put in requisition, and somewhat severely tested. During the re past, a military band played some pieces of concerted music, which added much to the pleasures of the day. Several vocalists also favoured the company with their songs, &c. Dancing was then commenced, and continued till past seven o'clock, when the company re-embarked in the Queen of the Thames, and returned to London: This trip was excel lently arranged. Everything that could conduce to convi viality and good feeling was provided, and great praise is due to those who had the immediate - direction of the celebration.

LONDON SOCIETY FOR THE PROTECTION OF YOUNG FEsiaLe.s.—On Tuesday the ninth annual meeting of the supporters of this Society, which is established for the purpose of re cuing from vice and restoring to society young creatures under fifteen years of age, was held at the asylum, Tottenham, the Rev. George Greaves, 31. A , rector, fierne Bay, in the chair, Amongst the company present. were se veral ladies of . the Society of Friends, and the following gen tlemen :—The Rev. John Glanville. 11. F. Richardson, W Astbury, 11. Thompson, E. Brewster, Esqrs., & e . Mr. J. 13: Talbot, the secretary, read the report. The last year was one, of unprecedented prosperity, the receipts having exceeded those of former years by 7001. Her Majesty the Queen Dowager had been graciously pleased to become patroness, giro nlia,nr A tcanntad_tlas. ;n o 'IC I f year eig h t temates were restored to their families, six were sent to service, four left of their own accord, and forty-seven remained in the asylum, where they were receiving a sound, moral, religious, and useful education. Several letters were received from the parents of the recipients of the charity's bounty, acknowledging the beneficial effects upon their chil dren of the discipline of the asylum. Since the formation of the Society 101 brothels were put down, two procuresses were convicted, and 346 young females were rescued from infamy through its instrumentality. The late Mr. Earles Somers, of Chertsey, bequeathed the Society 2001. Th e rece i p t s amounted to 2,0111. 2s. sd: and the expenditur e figured at 1,3261. The report,,in cp . nclusion, regretted the failure of tho Bill introduced by the Bishop of Exeter, as if it had been carried it would have nisisted the Society iu suppressing brothels, and prosec"ufing traffickers in vice. The report having been adoptetT, the officers for the ensuing year were elected, and thanks voted to the chairman. At the close of the - meeting the-Committee led the ladies and gentlemen at tending it over the building, which presented peculiar ad vantages for its object, and is capable of affording accommo dation for 1.50 inmates, with every convenience for domestic and other purposes. REDUCTION OF FARES ON THE GRAND JUNCTION AND LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM BAILWAYS.--We have great pleasure in announcing that a considerable reduction of the fares between Liverpool and London is about to be made almost immediately, the Directors of the Grand Junction and the London and Birmingham Railway Companies having both decided in favour of such a step. This is one of the first results of the cordial understanding which now exists be tween the two companies. We believe that it will be found equally 'advantageous to thd public and to the companies themselves. Coupled with the. acceleration of the mail trains just effected, it gives the public greater accomnioda tion at a cheaper rate, at the same time that it must add to the influence and popularity of the companies, and, in the end, tq their .income also.—Liveipool Times.
