The. proposed railway is intended to connect the assize town of Omagh with the important city of Armagh, now the centre of all the railways in the north of Ireland. The line will commence at Omagh, where it will connect itself with the Londonderry and Enniskillen station at that town, and, passing through or near to Ballygawley, Fintona, Clogher, and Augher, Auchnacloy, Caled on, and Killylea, terminates at _Armagh, where it will form a junction with the Ulster Railway to Belfast, the Inland Line to Dublin, the Newry and Enniskillen, and also the Armagh, Co'.e raine, and Portrush Railways. By this line of railway, the inhabitants of Tyrone and the adjacent counties will be afforded the most direct and expeditious mode of ac cess to Armagh, Newry, and Belfast; and as the distance between Omagh and Dublin will be by this line twenty miles shorter than that proposed by any other company now p-ojected, the whole goods and passenger traffic from the north-western and north-midland parts of Ireland in the direction of the metropolis will pass over this railway. To those acquainted with the county of Tyrone, and the ordinary course of its traffic to Belfast and Newry; it must be obvious that this railway will afford faeilities for the transit of goods and pas sengers, which mast be at once a great accommodation to the public and most remunerative to shareholders. The entire lengh of the line will be about 35 statute miles, The traffic 'returns justify the expectation that the Shareholders will derive at least 8 per cent. interest on their capital for the present, with every prospect of a progressive increase from the improved traffic.which railway communication invariably produces. Power will be taken to allow interest at 4 per cent. per annum on the deposits and calls till the line be opened. The detailed prospectus and map may be had at the Company's offices as above.

This Company is established under an Act of the Parllaraent of Canada, 8 Vie. c. 25, royal assent 17th of March, 1845, ter the pur-_, pose of forming a Railroad from the city of Montreal, the capital o f _ that important colony, through the most populous and fertile part of Canada East, via Sherbrooke, in connexion with a railroad to be con structed from the city of Portland, on the Atlantic Ocean, an d Which connects it by an existing railroad with Boston. not This line of Railway, while it gives important advantages, only to the provinces, but to the community at large, at the same time promises a safe and remunerative investment for.capital. e long The present communications with Canada are either by th and uncertain navigation of the River St. Lawrence, entirely ob structed byice during six months of the year ; or by the tedious land journey across from New York or Boston, the shortest of which ex ceeds 330 miles of mixed stage and steam conveyance, and can be- used for passengers only. Whilst by the cons truction of this ran road, an uniform and cheap route from the Atlantic, not exceeding 240 miles in length, will be established, available at all seasons the of the year, and forming the connecting link between the Ocean and vast chain of canal and lake navigation-westward of Montreal. By Acts lately passed by the Congress of the Un ited States, British goods are permitted to pass through their territory, under bond, And o by treaty the Canadian mail is transmitted from-Boston overland t once Montreal. Under these arrangements this railroad-win be at the p s o h e o s rt en e g st e , re e , as m ies w t, e a l n l d o s ch f ea or p; b s e t oa communication m th o a r t e can be opened tish manufactures, West India produ r ce, and various foreign l goods, now imported by the St. Lawrence, or sent in by the long and expen sive route from New York to Montreal. • To this country, as well as to the nume rous emi g rants who proceed. yearly to Canada, it must be, ever an object to have their communi v a ua r cations accelerated accelerated and improved. This railroad will bring Montreal within a few hours' trave' of the excellent and spacious harbeurs of Pei hand and Boston, ever open, and only ten or twelve days by steam from Great Britain, avoiding altogether the hazardous navi gation of the Gulf and River St. Lawrence. - The Act of Incorporation has already been obtained, whereby all preliminary expenses are saved, and one-sixth of the capital required has already been subscribed by persons of the first standing, as re spects intelligence, influence, and property, id the colony, thus affording the strongest guarantee of the confidence there entertained in the project. • . From the point of junction with the railroad to Portland, arrange ments are now ill progress giving the assurance that no delay will arise in carrying out the charter granted to parties in the United States, for the construction of that part of the work. The whole line has been carefully surveyed by experienced engi neers ; its practicability-fully demonstrated, no tunnelling being re- Attired throughout the whole distance, and the cost of construction in the most permanent manner, including purchase of land, and ex penses of every other description is estimated, will not exceed 450,000/. sterling ; being under 4,0001. per utile for 120 miles of single line, being the distance in the province to be constructed by this Company. And it may be remarked that forty- miles, of which twenty-two are of a maximum grade of eight feet to the mile, may be in operation by the latter end of next summer, at an estimated cost not exceeding 100,000/. sterling, which part adjoins Montreal, and will, it is not doubted, immediately yield a profitable return. The traffic returns obtained from the colony, deduced from actual sources, after the most careful investigation, and framed exclusive of Sunday traffic, on which day it is only proposed that the requisite mail train should travel, show a present expected income of 95,6001. currency, equal to 79,833/. sterling, when remitted to England, while the expenses of working the railroad, estimated by similar works in the United States, will not exceed 30,0001. sterling per annum. It may, therefore, be safely concluded, that the annual surplus of income over expenditure will, at its completion, amount to about 50,0001. sterling; or equal to ten per cent.' on the capital subscribed; while the Proprietors have the certainty that, in a Country whose resources are daily becoming so enlarged and developed, this rail road, forming the principal highway to the extensive and fertile regions bordering on the great lakes, comprehending Western Ca nada, the States of New York, Ohio, Michigan, and Wisconsin, and being the trunk to which local branches will from time to time be cometf bp e s i d tr t btai inl m edb ersu, be s i n t i tgsitsseuapb obse r ved drsieel prepared subscribed d n dt d b gra that, a f rom - t o i si n tn productiveness.ln which thi s eo i m t n t willhpeau Company I cay i ns im w m id ed be iately ttotremminstealnmeee required nt ratio Im mediately expended on the wort.

Richmond—Messrs. Stapleton and Co. . Settle and Clitheroe—The Craven Bank. Newcastle-Upon-Tyne—The Northumberland and Durham District Bank. The object of this railway is to form a directline of communication from Neweastle-uPon-Tyne, the ports of shields, Middlesborough, Tynemonth, and Sunderland, Se.aham Harbour, the rising ports of Hartlepool, Stockton-on-Tees, and the other ports on the north-east coast of England, to the important towns of Clitheroe, Preston, Black bunt, Bolton, Bury, Wigan, Chorley, Manchester, and Liverpool, and the'other great manufacturing and commercial towns of Lancashire. Commencing at Preston, it will proceed by the Valley of the Ribble to Clitheroe, where it meets With the proposed extension of the Blackburn, Darwen, and Bolton line from Blackburn to Clitheroe ; it will thence proceed to Settle and Hawes by the most direct course, and by the Valley of the Ure and the Wensleydale, to the towns of Askrigg and Richmond, near which latter place it will form a junc tion with the Great North of England and Neiveastle and Darlington Railways, by means of the Richmond Branch of the former Railway. The population of the districts thus placedin direct communication with each other, inpependently of the intermediate population, may be safely considered to amount to 570,000 on the north-east—and, on the south-west, 1,670,000. , This line, forming the most direct route from the northern and eastern districts of England, via Fleetwood, to Belfast and the north of Ireland, will greatly facilitate an interchange of commerce be tween the two countries. It effects - a saving of upwards of forty miles over the shortest existing route between Newcastle And Liverpool. The immense population at its termini is a sufficient guarantee of • the passenger traffic which may be. anticipated. The line will also afford the greatest facility for the transmission of coals from the mines of Durham and Lancashire to the towns and districts between the termini. In this article alone a very large traf fic may undoubtedly be anticipated, the . price of coals at Settle and its neighbourhood . now varying from 20a. to 225. per ton,, while by, means of the Railway coals of the best quality may be suppliedto. Settle and the northern district of the West Riding of Yorkshire and Lancashire in any quantity at from 10s. to 12s. per ton. 'The want of direct means of communication between the ports in the north of England and the towns of Liverpool, Preston, Fleet wood, and Manchester, has been long felt ; the importance also of a. system of easy railway communication around Manchester, extended to a much larger radius than at present is occupied by any , lines to wards the north, has been fully explained by the Board of Trade, as' affording a greater choice of sites for the erection of mills and factories. • The important local elements of traffic in 'slate, lead, ironstone, freestone, and lime, which will be derived from the immediate vici nity of Wensleydale and Swaledale, and the other. great mineral rallies along the line; are sufficiently obvious to all who are acquainted with the district, independent of the traffic in cattle and agricultural produce from Durham, Darlington,. Richmond, Settle, and other grazing districts, which is now very considerable. It is believed that these aud sources e dto,will of yi p ei ro d fi a t, m tog st e a t m he p r le w r i e t t li ir t n he on o e u p g r h opo t sed raftl e c ap a it lr e eady through traffic already alluded tç, 'ill yield a most ample return on th A preliminary survey has been taken of the line, and the sections ' are nearly completed. The length of the line between Preston and Richmond will be from seventy to seventy-live miles, and no peculiar engineering difficulties exist. The capital determined to be raised has been estimated to be more than sufficient for the comple tion of the works. The liability of each shareholder will be restricted by Act of Par liament to the amount of his subscription, and power will be applied for in the Bill to allow interest at 4/. per cent. per annum on all calls from the passing of the Act until the opening of the line. Arrangements have been made with existing railway companies now in connexion with this undertaking, by which a portion of the capi tal will be required to be reserved for them. Further arrangements are pending with other companies ; the Provisional Committee, therefore, reserve to themselves the right of making such extensions of this project and of increasing the capital for carrying out any such extensions as they may consider advantageous, with the view of ' forming a comprehensive system of railway communication from the northern and eastern coast with Liverpool and Manchester, and the manufacturing districts generally. • Applications for shares must be made to the solicitors, of whom, ,also, prospectuses may be had, and should be made in the annexed form, accompanied by a reference to some member of the Provisional Committee,' one of the Solicitors, or a Banker. Applications from persons locally interested will have a preference. The Committee have received a communication through Mr. Robert Stephenson from Mr. Hudson, in connexion with the Great Northern Lines ofßailway, to the effect that he will give to this pro ject all the assistance in his power. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES. To the Provisional Committee of the 'Liverpool, Manchester, and Newcastle-upon-Tyne Junction Railway. I request you'to allot to me share* of 251. each in the above undertaking, and I hereby engage to accept the same, or any less number which may be allotted to me, and to pay the, deposit thereon, and to execute the Parliamentary Contract and Subscribers' Agree meM when required. Dated the _ The importance of such a line is obvious, both from the nature of the district (embracing, as it d oes, a most extensive population within its limits) as also from th e absence, at present, of any ra il way or goo d canal communication fo r th e conveyance of merchan di se. This railway will eff ec t an absolute saving i n di s t ance b e t ween Kidderminster, Broms grove, and London, as compare d w ith t h e existing or any proj ec t e d line, of at least ten miles ; and it will afford the most direct conv e y ance between Bewdley, Stourbr i dge, Bridg north, Ludlow, Tenbury, D roitwich, and the South Sta ff or d s hi re dis tricts and London. a n d a l so to the numerous and large towns accom modated by the Welsh railways and other connecting lines. The distance by the present routes between Weedon and Leaming ton or Warwick is thirty-three miles, and one of the advantages re sulting from the construction of this railway will be that It effects a saving in distance of upwards of eleven miles between those places. By means of this line the Kilsby Tunnel (which is more than one mile And . a quarter is length) will be avoided ; and by the facilities which will be afforded by the proposed branch from the London and Birmingham Company's line between the Hampton station and Warwick and Leamington, this railway must obtain the through traffic from the Warwickshire and Leamington districts to Tam worth, Stafford, Liverpool, and Manehester (via the Birmingham and Derby and Trent Valley Railways) as well as the trafficof the South Derbyshire districts. By its junction with the Warwick and Chel tenham, Railway at Warwick it will also open the traffic from the Humber to the Severn, placing the counties of Northampton and Bedford in direct communication with the ports and cities of Gloucester, Bristol, TT --er" , rd, Tewkesbury, and Worcester, and by Its connexion with the Oxford and Rugby line afford communication with the Oxford a nd Ba nbury districts and the south of England.

IsIICOLL, twenty pae - es north if the Quadrant LiELTERS WATER, commonly known in 'Eng-. - laud as SET.TZER. WATER. „ Messrs. Schweppe and Co , importers of the .above Waters, beg respectfully to Inform the public, that they continue to receive, as heretofore, regular importations of the freshest fillings from the springs of . Nassau, through their resident Agent, who personally su perintends the packing and forwarding them to their Address in London, in baskets of 60 quarts and 100 pints each. The cork of each bottle is stamped at the bottom, with the ducal crown, and the words, "Nasser', Setters, &c.” sealed at the top, with the date, spe cifying the year when filled. This will be a far better proof of the freshness, as well as the genuineness of the water, than any additional covering to the cork, which may as well be ap plied in this country as at the springs, and which affords, therefore, no security to the public beyond the respectability of the parties adopting such a fancied guarantee. The Duke of Nassau, by any recent arrangement, has placed no impediment to the waters of his celebrated springs reaching this country, through resident agents, and Messrs. Schweppe and Co. continue, without the slightest interruption, to import large quantities through the same agent, on the Rhine, whom they have employed for twenty years past. They received their first and second shipments on the 12th and 31st of May, being the first parcels that reached. this country, a portion of which went to Buckingham Palace, for the use of her Majesty and the Court, and the rest, as usual, distributed among the first classes in the kingdom. They expect their third shipment in a a few days. These waters are obtainable together with their well-known Soda and other Aerated waters of their agents,'in nearly every town in the United Kingdom. 61, Berners-street. - - - SHALDERS'S ALL-POWERFUL FOUN TAIN PUMPS, CONSIDERED BY EMINENT MEN TO .BE THE GREATEST ADVANCEMENT IN THE USEFUL ARTS IN MODERN TIMES. These Pumps, with the same motive power, by acting without fric tion or leakage, are found in practice upon an average to be seventy per cent. more effective than the best Friction Pumps. N.B. When a Friction Pump raises 61bs. and a Fountain Pump 10lbs. of water per stroke 20 feet high, a man can make as many strokes with the one as with the other is the same time. What a noble stride in the art of raising water truly, after the world for 2,000 years had been struggling with Pistons st uckl fast in Cylinders. Happily, however, for a lasting public benefit, Pistons are now completely liberated by the new Conical Pumps, and one of the most glorious victories ever achieved obtained over both friction and leakage. Whilst both those frightful defects, that probably tax the world annually some millions sterling, must abide with the old Cylindrical Pumps for ever. If George Stephenson, Esq., places a Friction Pump by the side of a Fountain Pump upon his Yarmouth Railway for constant trials by manual power, he will rectify his judgment respecting the two Pumps, and gladly discover, after all his great experience in Pump work, that the best Friction Pumps are but poor contrivances for raising water, when fairly tested against Fountain Pumps well car ried out, which for the last twenty years have never been equalled, nor can ever be surpassed. Tombland public Fountain Pump (Norwich) raised 30 tons of water per day for watering the streets, and supplied the inhabitants with water for two years, before the first connector failed, when a new connector was fixed in two hours, and the Fountain Pump again performed the same work with half the labour of the former Friction Pump. THE RIGHT WAY OF RAISING WATER IS FOUND OUT. Therefore, could all engineers at once learn to carry out well this simple invention, the God-send would prove one of the most im portant discoveries ever made. In its infancy even mark its BEICENT RESULTS : Numbers of houses and numbers of ships, hundreds and hundreds of lives, thousands and tens of thousands of pounds worth of pro perty have been preserved from destruction through the instrumen tality of the Fountain Pumps and the Portable Fire Engines. " We may now consider the Six Guineas well laid out for Shal ders's Portable Engine, as it saved the Union office above a hundred times that sum at Mr. Neaves, Agricultural Incendiary Fire, Wind ham."—The Agent's remark to the Norwich Secretary : STOKE MILLS ON FIRE. " On Wednesday last, about nine o'clock In the evening, a fire was discovered at the mills occupied by Messrs. Colman, of Stoke, four miles from Norwich. Information of the occurrence soon arrived in the city, when the Corporation and Union tire-engines were sent in great haste to the mills, but when halfway on the road, information was received that the fire was got under. Fortunately Messrs. Col man a lbw months before bought one of Shalders's admirable Por table Fire Engines, which being brought to bear immediately on the blaze, the fire was speedily extinguished. Part of the flooring was burnt, and a quantity of wheat in the granary injured."—Norfolk Chronicle, July 5, 1845. At Norwich twelve destructive fires have been extinguished by Shalders's ever-ready Portable Fire Engines. For further information and abundant proof that Fountain Primps are most durable machines, see Mechanics' Magazine, Nov. 16, 1844. Bank-place, Norwich, July 16, 1845. T HE TWO COUSINS. A TALE.

SAMUEL, BROTHERS, explain to their patrons the quantity that is necessary for the particular article of dress wanted, and charge sepa rately for the making and trimming. The peculiar advantages of the system may be practically exemplified as follows :—The average quantity of cloth for a coat is 1% yards. Suppose the cloth selected to be 12a. per yard, the material would cost 21a., our charge would be 20$. for making and trimmings, and thus a first-rate coat, made to measure, and completed in the best style, will be obtained for 415,; few, if any, charge less than 50s. or 525. for the same article. The sane saving will be effected in every description of clothing. SAMUEL, BROTHERS', charge for making and trimming cosfts for cloths under 10s. per yard is 18s., and for the higher price cloths 20s.

TIIE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY OF ENGLAND. SHREWSBURY, THURSDAY, JULY 17.—The attendance to the exhibition of implements yesterday was greater than that of the preceding day, and the sale of the articles was com mensurate with the numbers at the show. The council dinner took place in the Music-hall of the town, in Market-square, at five o'clock. The dinner, which was supplied by Messrs. Bathe and Breach, of the London Tavern, was of the first description, and was served up in an ad• mirahle manner. Three hundred noblemen and gentlemen were present. His Grace the Duke of Richmond (the President of the Society) took the chair, the vice-chair being filled by Earl Spencer. The cloth having been withdrawn, the Noble CE•tema at gave the usual loyal and patriotic toasts. The Noble CHAIRMAN then read the award of the judges in relation to the cattle to be shown to-morrow . . The Noble CHAIRMAN then said, that having read the list, it now became his duty to propose the health of the successful competitors in cattle, and as the Hon. Mr. Nugent, of Hybam ground, had gained the greatest number of , prizes, he pro. I posed to couple his name with the toast.—(Hear, hear.) He was in hopes that he should have had to couple the name of his Noble Friend Lord Hill with this toast, but as it was know n that his Lordship disliked speaking very much—(Laughter)— he had no doubt he willingly gave up any right he might have is this respect to the Hon. Gentleman to whom he had already referred. He gave, " The Hon. Mr. Nugent, and the success ful competitors in cattle."—( Applause. ) The Hon. Mr. NUGENT acknowledged the toast. He most cheerfully came forward, though at the same time he could not forget that he stood there in the glare of a nobleman, who was not only one of the most successful competitors in this depart ment, but who was the representative whose memory would ever remain unstained in the affections of the people of that neighbourhood.—(Applause.) It was of course a matter of exultation and pride, to know that he was called upon to speak to this toast, because he felt that he owed it to his attempt to improve the breed of long-horned cattle, which had almost been forgotten.—( Hear.) He had fostered that breed under peculiar circumstances, and at considerable expense, but he was pleased to find that their importance was now generally acknowledged, and that they were now in a position to main tain their capabilities and points along with the other breeds of this country.—( Cheers. ) Earl SPENCER next rose. He said he was sure the com pany would not think he did his duty as their Vice-Pre sident if he allowed the Noble Chairman to propose the next toast, which would otherwise fall to him, and need not tell them, that when it was found, as the last list of awards proved, that his Grace was the most successful competitor in the award, it would be rather awkward to call on the Noble Duke to propose his own health.—( Laughter, and cries of " Hear, hear.") He was sure that under such circumstances they were all satisfied that their Noble Chairman's health ought to be drunk coupled with the toast of the successful competitors in sheep. He-bad acted as steward in this department, and in that capacity he had seen all the stock, which scarcely any body else had done ; and he would tell them that it was no mean honour to have won a public one. The show of Southdown this year was equal to any that they bad ever had, and the whole show, although it might not be so numerous as on some former occasions, was equal to any former one in the excellence of the specimens shown ; and he was sure every gentleman wt uld say, when he saw them to-morrow, that there never was a show more worthy the attention of the agriculturist than this was. He begged, in conclusion, to propose " The health of the Duke of Richmond, and the successful com petitors in sheep."—( Great applause. ) The Duke of RICHMOND said he was extremely obliged to his Noble Friend for having proposed his health on that occasion. He was about, when interrupted by his Noble Friend, to pro pose the health of Mr. Handley, who had gained more prises than he had for sheep ; but the Noble Earl having proposed his health, and the company having responded to it in so marked a manner, he could not but feel much gratified at the circum stance.—( Hear.) In reply to such a compliment he begged to be permitted to say that he was proud on every occasion to send stock to the shows of the Royal Agricultural Society, because he believed by doing so, and by sending that stock from a distant part of the country to this looslity, they would, by comparing, think their own stock not so good as they might otherwise suppose them to be. He bad gone that day with his Noble Friend, the Earl of Powis , over a portion of his estate better farmed estate he bad not seen in any part of the country—and doing so they called upon one of the Noble Earl's tenants, who showed them his sheep. He (the Duke of Richmond) observed that the sheep were not of the most perfect symmetry. The farmer denied this, and offered to show as good wethers as any that he (the Chairman) could produce.—(A laugh.) He recommended him to salt till he had seen his, the next afternoon, and he would venture to say that when he had seen them, he would be obliged to him for ant entering into the bargain which he had proposed.—(Loud laughter.) • It was natural for every farmer to think that the stock he was daily in tke habit of seeing in his own farm-yard were the best in the world, and it was only by comparison that they could see the mistake under which they laboured. This was one of the great advantages of this society, and he believed much good bad resulted to the country in consequence. He had long been a Southdowner. He had shown his stoat on many occasions. He had often been beaten, and he had won sometimes. He would still continue to show, whether beaten or otherwise, because that by showing he did good to the agriculture of the country.—( Hear.) He had told them that he was proud of being a competitor there, but be felt more pride at receiving from gentlemen to whom he was, he might say, unknown, such a mark of their esteem as that which they had displayed towards him that evening. He hoped they would accept from him the expression of his heartfelt gra titude for the compliment they had paid him.—( Applause. ) The Noble Chairman having read the prizes awarded respect ing pigs, said that the contest was a " (lead heat" between Lord Hill and Mr. Fisher Hobbs, who was, by the way, as honest and straightforward a tenant-farmer (as any in England. Ile had great pleaslue in proposing the healths of Lord Hill and Mr. Fisher Hobbs. Lord Hitt expressed his acknowledgments, and said that but for the existence of the Royal Agricultural Society, he' should not have done anything to advance the interests of agriculture.—( Hear.) ' Mr. FISHER Horses ilso expressed his acknowledgments. Mr. (hussy GORE proposed " the health of the exhibitors of implements." In doing so, he said, in reply to the argu ment used as to the use of machinery being calculated , to di minish labour, that, on the contrary, it bad, wherever it was brought into operation, increased the demand for manual labour.—(Hear, hear.) He had no hesitation in saying that the more improvements,t . hat were made, and the more valuable the implements became, the greater would be the call for manual labour.—(Hear, bear.) The engines employed in agriculture had been used with great advantage in our colonies, and the result was, that hundreds and thousands of acres had been brought into useful operation, which would not otherwise have been the case.—( Hear.) He congratulated them upon the very great exhibition of implements which had been shown on the present occasion. Mr. RAacsowa, of Ipswich, expressed his acknowledgments, on the part of the exhibition. He proposed " the health of the stewards of departments."—(Applause. ) Mr. SHILLEY, on the part of the stewards, returned thanks. The CHAIRMAN said that Lord Kenyon had offered a pre mium of 201. for the best essay on the use of gorse as food for cattle, horses, and sheep, and the award was now about to be read. [The seal of the letter which contained the award was then broken, when it was found that the successful essayist was Mr. 0. Robots.] In continuation, he said-be was sure that they would agree with him in thinking that this was a subject of great importance in a healthy district, and one that.had not hitherto occupied much of the attention of the agriculturist.— (Hear.) He would here observe that when the British army were engaged in the Peninsular war, they were, frequently without corn or hay for their horses, and without having much experience as agriculturists, they gave them what they could get, and that was only bruised gorse. The essay would be published in the journals of the Society, and he had only now to propose: the health of Lord Kenyon, who had so liberally come forward with a premium in reference to a subject, the exposition of which must be of great value and importance to his neighbours and tenants.—( Hear, hear.) Lord KENYON returned thanks. The compliment which had been conferred upon him was greatly increased in conse quence of the source from whence it had emanated.—(Hear, hear.) The motive that influenced him in giving the prize was, that it was important to the small farmers of Wales, being adapted to the soil, and requiring nothing but labour. Though neglected at home, it was not so abroad, for in the Peninsula. where the Noble Chairman had fought side by side with the great men who had preserved the liberties of Europe— (Cheers)—in that country they had a saying, " That an acre of gorse was better than an acre of oats."—( Hear. ) The Hon. Mr. Cit.rvz proposed the health of Earl Spencer. —(Cheers.) Whether as President or Vice-President of the Society, or as Steward of the Yard, or indeed in any situa tion in which the Society was interested, there would the Noble Earl be found, working out its welfare. The Society did good in various ways. By these annual meetings they formed friendships—they removed prejudices, and caused an interchange of opinions ; and, in short, they brought farmers from all parts of the kingdom to become united together ; and he would remind them that the tenant-farmer would not be ex pected to undertake experiments unless there was a prospect of his being remunerated thereby. —( Hear, hear.) It could not he supposed the farmer would expend his means for the benefit of the country, without any regard to his own interests. Let the landlord then endeavour to promote the welfare and comfort of the tenant by an improved understanding between them. There should be a fair understanding in the way of agreements, which would enable landlord and tenant to be united in carrying out these advantages. He was in hopes that an opportunity for this would shortly be offered.—( Hear, hear.) Let them en deavour to follow the example which had been set for them by the Noble Earl, whose health he was about to propose, by ex tending the sphere of usefulness through the districts in which they might reside creating a spirit of emulation from ono and to the other. -( Hear, hear.) lie begged most cordially to give the health of Earl Spencer.—( Loud cheers. ) Earl SPENCER said he was much gratified by this mark of their esteem. if credit was to be given to him for endeavour ing to promote the success of the Society, he would only say that he would continue to deserve that credit by every means in his power. He felt how important it was to the agricul ture of the country that meetings of this kind should be held, to promote the cultivation of the soil, and thus to better the condition of the people.—( Applause.) The Society, he was happy to say, was now in a most flourishing condition, and every one admitted that it was useful and beneficial to the in terests of the country. Mr. Clivo had alluded to the mechani cal skill which had been brought to bear upon the interests of science e ti n gd t that agriculture. He believed that almost every be brought to bear upon their profession:but he was s mechanical science would accomplish the to impress upon the all. There was one point which he wished greatest good of them bine ou ht to Society, and that was, that the price of a mac g to it, because, if their be considered in awarding a pr ize othernot afford sscience c to e of the country, they must object was to improve the condition buy.—( Applause.) fie believed not encourage implements wh.ichitei°t e th f a a t un e e v r e c r7 hl thanks and to assure t em tat he would benefit by th ese meetings as well as agriculture.tur lie begged again to re to assist the county to the utm h oat of his s hould ever be r eady w L ou d applause.) po ; e h r e . ( "Judges of the Show," " His Grace the Duke of Richmond, President of the Royal Aprieultural Society of England, and thanks to him for presiding over us," and other toasts, followed. His GRACE returned thanks, and concluded by giving "The Ladies," which was warmly responded to. I The company then retired. ad ROYAL BIRTH AT PAISLEY.—In days of yore Paisley and its neighbourhood were occasionally favoured as the residence of Kings and Queens, and royal births, under peculiar circumstances, have taken place there. The birth referred to in the present notice is not, however, amongst the sovereigns of the human race, but the kings of the forest. On Saturday morning, about four o'clock, Mr. Wombwell's fine lioness Duchess whelped three fine cubs in the County-square, which, with the parent, are in good health. We learn that this accession to Mr. Wombwell's wild family numbers about two hundred of the lion species which have been whelped and reared under his care. It is the first occur rence of the kind that has taken place in Paisle y —we may not only say during the memory of the oldest liver, but since it has existed. The father of the young family Is the majestic lion Wallace, one of the progeny of the famous animal of the same name, which was one of the first lions whelped in Scotland, an occurrence w hich took. place In 1817.—Glasgow Argus.
