The hundreds of thousands of heads of Game reared on my system during the last ten years proves its utility ; 1 he loss from every cause has not averaged three to the hun dred. Gapes and Roup (the two most fatal diseases which attack game) the birds have been and always are free from. This is attributable to their robust constitution and excellent condition. Pheasants fed on my fond show their beautiful plumage with hardness and closeness of feather to the greatest advantage; they cannot be sur passed. The magnificent Foreign and English Pheasants at the Zoological Society's Gardens, Londoa, and his Imperial Majesty's Pheasentry at Compiegne and St. Germaius, are fed with my food.

Th a capital has been divided into shares of £lO each, and stock in sums rang'ng from £lO upwards, to suit the convenience of all ; as it is thought many may desire to takva a definite amount of stock, or to pay up in full, and thus be free at once from all future care about calls, and from all future liability, while others may prefer to pay a smaller sum down as a deposit on shares, and pay up the residue by instabnents as calls may he made. Some shares have been already allotted in India. The share capital will be called up slowly, and so as, with the stock, to maintain an expenditure at the rate of about £130,000 per annum. £2 per share during each year will be ample for this. Applications for shares may now be sent to the Com pany's Offices, 8 and 9, Queen-street-place, Southwark bridge, London, E.C., where a full prospectus and forms of application may be had ; but it is necessary that it should be understood that no application will be considered, un less a deposit of £1 on each share, or of 10 per cent. upon the amount of stock applied for, has been made either to the Bankers of the Company, Messrs.

The Town Council of Leeds have had before them various details of the preparations for the Prince of Wales's visit on the 19th inst. The regret felt at the inability of the Princess of Wales to accompany his Royal Highness was freely expressed, and it led to an inquiry whether something could not be done to induce one or more of the Queen's daughters to supply the place of the Princess of Wales. The Mayor said he was not in a position to answer the question. He was in London on the previous day, but he knew nothing more than any other member of the CounCil. He was not aware that any invitations had been sent to either of the Princesses, unless one had emanated from the executive of the Fine Arts Exhibition. He had not seen any of those. gentlemen since Monday morning, when it was first known that the Princess of Wales was not coming, and it was not in his power to give any infor mation. A week ago it was detided to be not expedient that the mayor should proclaim a general holiday on the 19th inst. On Thursday that matter was reconsidered, inasmuch as the Tuesday's market next week had been officially postponed already. Mr. Linsley, a councillor, said there was a general desire that the tradesmen should close their shops on Tuesday next, and it was felt that without it there could be no such expression of loyalty as was intended. All the shopkeepers were them selves hoping that such would be the case, but they wanted a proclamation from the Mayor to guarantee that there would be a general holiday. The Mayor said he wished to consult the wishes of the town in all that he did, and if the council thought there should be a general holiday, he would announce one. The council unanimously voted that the Mayor should take that step. It was suggested by Alderman George that there should be a slight altera tion in the route of the procession to the Exhibition; but the Mayor said it would be breaking faith with the public to agree to do so, and a strong reason why the route should not be deviated from was that ib had been communicated to General Knollys. It was agreed that the spacious flight of steps at the principal entrance to d the Town Hall be barricaded on the opening day, and the right of admission to that enclosed space be distributed among the members of the corporation. Mr. Harrison, a councillor, asked if it was contemplated to invite the Sunday Schools of the town and neighbourhood to assemble in the area in front of the Town Hall and sing " Good Bless the Prince of Wales " as the Royal cavalcade passed en its way to the Exhibition. The Mayor said the subject had not yet been discussed at all by those having charge of the arrangements, but he woul4, take care immediately to lay it before them. 'Amite newsam, a fine mansion standing on a noble elevation to the eastward of Leeds, will receive the Prince of Wales as its guest during his forthcoming visit to York shire. It is the property of Mr. Hugo C. Meynell Ingrain, who has made costly preparations in anticipation that the Princess would also be a visitor, and has invited a large circle of the aristocracy to accompany the Prince to the Leeds Exhibition. Templenewsam is the " Temple stowe" which was the scene of some of the - principal events related in Sir Walter Scott's " Ivanhoe." From 1181 to 1311 it was a preceptory of the Knights Teinpiars, but the old hall was taken down by Sir A. Ingram, who built the present stately house on the site. The noble families of Lennox, Irvine, and Hertford have from time to time been the owners of the place. The Prince of Wales on Monday will travel from London by the Midland Railway, and alight at Woodlesford, a station in a rural district which is nearest to his destination for that day. It is probable that on Tuesday Leeds will be overrun with visitors, should there be " Queen's weather." The Midland, the Great Northern, the London and North-Western, Lancashire and Yorkshire, and North-Eastern Companies, all intend to run special and excursion trains on that day. In the streets of Leeds through which the Royal cortege will pass barri cades are forthwith to be erected, and wherever space is available temporary balconies will be put up by specu lators, whose charges are likely to be reasonable. Win dows of the houses flanking and overlooking the Exhibi tion building have been let, it is said, at from five to seven guineas each, but the contracts were made before it was known that the Princess was not coming. . _ . c<7.) ....

In the parish of North Knapdale, a district far west in Argyle, washed by the pleasant waters of the Sound of Jura, dwells Mr. Peter Clark. Mr. Clark is a farmer. He is also the head of a family. He also is, or was, a com municant in the Free Church of North Knapdale, under the very earnest, though rather unearthly, pastorate of the Rev. Alexander Ferguson. Mr. Ferguson and the two elders who are associated with him in the spiritual oversight of Free North Knapdale arc very strict in their censorship of morals ; and, accordingly, when told, as we are in certain recent proceedings of the Free Synod of Argyle, that Mr. Ferguson and his elders "know nothing against Mr. Peter Clark as a man," we are at once filled with a profound respect fur that agriculturist. But it seems that there is a qualification with which this respect must be entertained. To no mortal is it given to be perfect ; and so Mr. P. Clark has a spot on his virtue --a flaw in his character—a hole in his coat. Nothing known against him "as a man," there is but too much known against him " as a communicant." He dances ; he goes to balls. For eight years past at least he has been a victim to this vice. Of the fact there cannot be a doubt. When the Rev. Mr. Ferguson, on hearing the matter averred, made inquiry as to whether such a thing could be, he was informed by one - who actually " saw him engaged on the dancing floor" that it was so—nay, he discovered that it " was generally known and commented on in those parts." A crisis came, when Mr. Peter Clark's sin began to find him out. In the spring of 1866 he applied to his spiritual superiors for a certificate of church membership. The Kirk Session met in solemn conclave. To certify unreservedly a notorious performer of reels was of course out of the question. Such practices, according to Mr. Ferguson, are not merely "un seemly in a parent and communicant," but they are "a sin and" (we quote with reference) "a bitter provocation to the Lord." The certificate, it was plain, could not he granted " without rebuking such scandal, and seeing proofs of re pentance and reformation." This, however, might have been troublesome, and so a compromise was adopted. Mr. Clark was certified as a communicant, but he was at the same time certified as a dancer. Of course, "in those parts " this was worse than no certificate at all. Accordingly, Mr. Clark offered to "satisfy" the Session, which he did by appearing before them " expressing his regret, and pro raising amendment," and then he got a new certificate, in which all mention of his saltatory offendings was sup pressed. Armed with this document he might have pre sented himself anywhere, but he was not content. It struck him that there must be some allusion to the transgression in the Session-books ; and, as he was anxious not to go down to posterity with a brand upon his name, he wrote to his late pastor to have all trace of the matter effaced. This seems to have been regarded as rather an impudent request to be made by a person who had just been forgiven the heinous sin of dancing, and an evasive answer was returned. The indefatigable Clark, however, invoked the Free Presbytery of Inverary in defence of his reputation, and that body, as well as the Synod afterwards, decided in his favour on a point of form, his success at the same time being rather impaired by the fact that his attempts to bury his guilt in oblivion had proved the means of proclaiming it fully to the world. Meanwhile, the Rev. Mr. Ferguson, who regards the decision of his Presbytery as a " winking at a practice which the Free Church once used to cast as a slur upon other Churches," is resolved to bring up the whole case to the General Assembly, when we shall learn whether, in the religious arrangements of the future, dancing, like endow ment, is to be " an open question."—Scotsman.

With refe rence to this stipulation, it has been a.;knowledged by the Government that they alone are liable in respect to the non-payment for water supplied, so that the Company are released from all fear of liability to loss of any portion of their water-rate. The value of the foregoing arrangement can hardly be too highly prized, forming as it does a cer tain and safe guarantee of payment for every portion of the water supplied for irrigation. It ha. been determined by the Directors to limit, at any rate for the present, the expladitute to about £130,000 per annum, whereby they will be enabled to make all fu ture calls small in amount and at regular stated periods, not exceeding on the whole £2 per share during each year ; at the same time they are enabled by the Act of In corporation to issue the required capital partly in shares of LEO each, and partly in stock divisible into sums vary ing from £lO upwards —a plan which will suit the con venience of those who desire to limit their liability to a fixed sum at once, and to be relieved from future calls, and also those who may prefer to pay the amount of capital held by them by easy instalments in the shape of calls. Applications for Shares and Stock may now be made at the Company's Offices, 8 and 9, Queen-street-place, South wark-bridge, London, E.C.

In addition, however, to their great value us means of transit, these two canals are not less promising as main irrigating channels, regarding which more will be said presently. onry weirs and head but little additional ou tl a y f or th e i r com pletion, oa T rsk h s o f 01.1 o wu presentrequire _state o of th e expensive works m u t , :w under construction and ultimately their cost will be apportioned over the various channels iu course of construction, and to be constructed, fur the irrigation of the land to be first sup plied, and over such additional acreage as may hereafter he piovided for.

The main works thus far executed command about 200,000 acres, requiring only the addition of some of the subsidiary channels to apply water to the land. There have been opened, suffi cient for navigation at stated periods, but not continu ously, seme portions of the Midnapore and Hooghly Canal, and the tidal canal, and during last year (1867) the tolls collected upon theth in their incomplete state, without locks and with accommodation for traffic during high tide only, showed signs of gradual and certain increase, the average of the whole year being over L5O per mile gross, and of the latter months much higher. The locks required to render these sections navigable at all times are fast drawing towards completion, and then it is confidently estimated that a vast increase of traffic will arise. The Kendrapara Canal will, the chief engineer reports, be opened for navigation to tidal water, and thus to the port of False Point by - the end of this year. As they are now planned, and being constructed, the five canals above -named will, when completed according to the estimates of - many engineers most competent to judge, including Colonel Rundall and the present chief engineer of the Company, convey water for the Irrigation of about 700,000 acres. At the outset the Company, with the sanction of the Government of India, fixed the rate to bo paid for a supply of its water at three rupees per acre for one crop, or five rupees per acre for two crops, which charges were ad mitted by all to be very moderate towards the cultivators, and capable of being increased thereafter; but it was found, as a Pleasure of policy, advisable that a temporary reduction should be m a d e, in order that the nat i ve calti va.tore might be induced to take the water, and so to be come aware of the great benefits which they would inevi tably receive from the Irrigation of their land, and which would, it was known., be such as to render a speedy return to the original rates a matter of certainty without creating dissatisfaction. _ Adopting the reduced rate of charge for irrigation, and estimating the returns from navigation at the very mode rate total of three per cent. upon the outlay (the present chief engineer has just reported that he estimates the re turns upon the Tidal Canal will be at least ten per cent.), and allowing the high charge of five per cent. for repairs, maintenance, establishment, &c., the net returns from the sec tions now to b e completed ould be altogether twelve per cent., which, by the re-establishment of the original rate of five rupees per acre for irrigation, would be made up to twenty-one per cent , ne t. These are figur es t h e accuracy o f which can be easily demonstrated, and any inquiry lade rega rdin g them at the Company's offices will bo at once replied to , and ever y information given. The prospect of an immediate and extensive spread of irrigation, and therefore of a satisfactory increase upon the existing returns, is highly encouraging. For som e little time the natives, ign oran t o f the value of irrigation, and fearing an increase of the Land Assessment, abstained from taking the Company's water, but the renewal by G period of 30 years, the judicious temporary reduction of te e g r rn ra m te en a t of ndo t t h h e er ex m i e s a ti s n Land Settlement for a further are; such as the employment by water the Company of some of the Zemindars, &c., have dis persed these impediments, and each succeeding recent mail has brought intelligence evidencing a practical eager ness on the part of both Zemindars and Ryots to secure the immediate Irrigation of their lands ; and by reports received on tho 3d of the present month, and dated the 30th/Ilfarch, it appears that there had then been signed, cOnnectect with the -ICendrapara Canal alone,. leases (prin cipaily for 3 years) for about 26,000 acres; that:applica tions froin cultivators of land under the same canal were being.received. at the rate of from 2,000 to 5,000 acres daily ; and that the natives were cutting the smaller channels necessary to convey the water to their fields With earnestness ; furthei), that in the vicinity of the high lola canal meeting's were being held by the Zemin-, dars, and other ut imistakable signs exhibited that' the same favourable state off affairs thtire 115 that connected with the Kendrapara Canal was a mere matter of a short time, and that before the coming season large demands will be made for water. Upon the Midnapore Canal the effect of the reduction of the water rate, &c., had not, at th e end of March, been thoroughly ascertained, because the irrigating portion of that canal had been closed for some time previous for construction purposes, and had then only been reopened, but the chief engineer of the Company and the executive engineer in charge reported that applications for water, in addition to the 4,000 acres supplied last year, had commenced and were confidently ex pected to be added to largely. From the foregoing it may fairly be assumed that the works already constructed have now entered upon their stage of revenue, and that they offer to capitalists not only a safe investment, but one which will, most assuredly, be very profitable ere long; and here it may bo added, as confirmatory of this ihnost immediate prospect, that the portions of the works now in hand remaining to be exe cuted, consisting mainly of channels for the distribution of the water, will necessarily be the easiest of construction, as well as the most productive, and will add materially to the percentage of returns on the whole outlay. It is important to add here that the profits mentioned in this prospectus have been estimated upon the whole of the capital expended and now to be raised by the Company, although in the event of the entire scheme of works being hereafter carried out, of which there can be little doubt seeing its promising character, much of that expenditure will have to be taken from off the present works and charged to the other sections when undertaken. There is also another feature of great importance, which must not be omitted in the consideration of the fitness of this undertaking for an investment. By the contract it is expressly provided that the Company shall be paid for the water supplied for irrigation to the cultivators—not by the cultivators themselves —but by the Government of India; and that the price to be so paid by the Government to the RECOMMENDED by the GOVERNMENT of INDIA, thus : —" We have long regarded this great scheme (the BEHAR UNDERTAKING) as one of all others in India to which PRIVATE CAPITAL should be IN VITED."

This Company was incorporated by special act of Par liament in 1861, and under the powers thus granted, and under a contract made with the In dian Government, it originally undertook the carrying o ut of a scheme of works in Orissa, styled * ".rhe Oriss:JUudertaking ;" and such has been the rapidity with which the construction of the first selected sections has been prosecuted that, at this time, water for the irrigation of at least 200,000 acres can be supplied, a rate of progress more rapid and more satis factory than has ever yet been attained in ludia. A large demand for the water has already arisen, and it is clear that, the success of that undertaking is now beyond a doubt. The D:rectors, in 1864, concluded arrangements for another contract with the Secretary of State in Council, whereby the Company were authorised to carry out a pro ject for applying the waters of the River Soane to the irrigation of the land lying on its western side as far as Chunar, and on its eastern side as far as Patna, a general sketch plan and description whereof has been submitted to and approved by the Governments of India and Bengal; invited. This second undertaking of the Com p an y has been and it is for this project subscriptions for ca p ital are now named "The Behar Undertaking." It is based upon most careful investigations and plans male during several years, under command from the Government, by Colonel Dickens, and has been styled " The Soane Canal Project;" but—and this is very important —the arrangement of the head works has been greatly improved, and in truth re planned, by Colonel Randall, in accordance with the emi nently successful Madras system. By these improvements, which have received the sauction and approval of Govern ment, the prospective profits have been greatly increased. The great value and promising nature of "The 13,har Undertaking" have, during the last eight or ten years, been so well and favourably discussed in England and throughout India, first by the Government a,.1 then by the Company's officers, and are now so generally known, that any statement which the Directors might add upon the subject would be superfluous ; th e y, th ere f ore , li m it themselves to an assurance that they are satisfied it pre sents a safe, sound, and profitable investment; and, unhe sitatingly, solicit subscriptions towards the requisite capital; at the same time they , quote, as confirmatory of their own judgment, the following: - Firstly. An extract from a de s p a t c h t o t h e. Secretary o f State in Council, dated 10th March, 186 4 , recommending the Soane Canal project should b e given - to a private com pany, which despatch was signed by th e l ate L or d Can ning as Governor-General, and by Sir Henry Bartle Frere (since Governor of Bombay and now a member of the Council of India in England), Sir Cecil Beadon (after wards Lieut.-Governor of Bengal), General Sir Robert Napier (now commanding the forces in Abyssinia), Samuel ri HonourOrissa the a e u n d a nt that - Gov it e r would n o r ba good o considers odfor that it (the Soane Canal project) hold s ou t b et t er pros p e cts than te Laing, Esq., M.P. (then Finance Member of Council for India), and the Hon. W. Ritchi e , b e i ng t h e w h o l e o f ,the Governmental Council, viz.:— "hrff the i ; s oa scheme, the but E atshtelndi projectorsa lrrigation prefer Ctohma that Company originally forys selected te coun trydby if the Compauy were to ad o pt thi s i nstea d o f the other them. " We havo long regarded this scheme as ono of all others in India to which private capital should be invited. " There is this advantage in Government taking the initiative in planning the great works of the country, that they are so placed before the public that they can be dis cussed in the light of local knowledge and experience. l'he only drawback to doing this is the risk of misleading capitalists and raising mistrust of such investments. "In the present instance no such risk need be appre hended, for there is evident throughout Colonel Dickens' report a most conscientious endeavour to anticipate the maximum cost of the work. " We therefore suggest that such means should be taken as may seem best to you to make known the outline of Colonel Dickens' scheme in quarters where it will be con sidered with a view to taking up the work, and that you should be prepared to inform any capitalists, who may offer to do so, of the terms upon which the work would be put into their hands." And secondly. Two paragraphs from a minute recordei by Sir P. P. Grant when Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal, viz.:- " The magnificent province of Behar which would be admirably watered by Captain Dickens' projected canal from the Soane. The cost here would certainly be very much less (than at Cuttack), and the returns may rea sonably be expected to be much more secure, because we know, as a fact; the value of irrigation in Behar. The soil is better and the natural rainfall is less by half on an ave rage, and much less certain in Behar than in Outtack. The most valuable crops are not the rain crops in Behar, and for the most valuable crops there it is found by expe rience to be the general case in Orissa. " I venture to recommend this enterprising Company, in whose success every person connected with India must feel deep interest, to consider Captain Dickens' scheme of irrigation from the Soane, for which complete plans and estimates are available, and nothing is wanted but the money." Adding that Sir P. P. Grant's opinions have been con firmed by many officers of Government thoroughly well qualified to judge, and who have stated that the district of Behar has a population dense!; and of a more commercial and enterprising character than that of Orissa, and already convinced of the value of irrigation, while it possesses a permanent land settlement. The Directors forbear to estimate the probable profits to be derived from " The Behar Undertaking;" they prefer to point, as a guide to a fair judgment upon the matter, to the ascertained results produced by similar undertakings which have been completed, and to call attention to the now uncontroverted fact that all similar works in India, when properly selected, planned, and executed, must in evitably yield considerable returns—leaving out of sight the profits to be derived from navigation—indeed it is diffi cult to conceive how the sale of an article so absolutely essential to agriculture and to life, as water is in India, can be otherwise than productive of large profits upon ca pital expended to create its supply. It is necessary, however, to state that in the present case the profits will be derived chiefly from two sources : Firstly. The sale to the Government of water for irri gation, at a price to be fixed, from time to time, by the mutual consent of the Government and the Company, or by arbitrators appointed by each, which price, when so fixed, must, according to the contract, represent the fair value of the water to the parties using it, and must be paid by the Government to the Company, a gua rantee of great value against loss. Secondly. Tolls levied upon all boats and vessels using the navigable water ways of the Company, and rates and fares for the conveyance of goods and passengers thereon. Irrespective of three minor, though, as shown by expe rience, promising sources, viz.:- 1. Rent for mills and factories which may be established on the banks of the various channels, and supplied with water power therefrom. The water power to be thus available will be very large. 2. Tho cultivation and sale of timber and other produce raised upon the land of the Company. And, 3. The supply of water to the various villages and towns within the vicinity of the Comj:dny's canals for pri vate and public purposes. By the contract with the Government the Company are entitled to receive and retain all profits from the sale of water for irrigation, until the dividends paid to Shareholders shall exceed 20 per cent. upon the total expenditure made, after which the balance of such profits is to be divided equally between the Government and the Company. The returns from all other sources aro to belong to the Com pany exclusively. The scheme of works to be executed has now been ,• thoroughly investigated and carefully re-planned on behalf of the Company, and particulars submitted to and ap- T HE RESCUE SOCIETY'S HOMES .tre as follows : For Fallen Women. 28, Church-row, Hamp- 150, New Kent-road. stead. 48, Church-street, Stoke 13, Camden-street, Camden- Newington. town.
