The Constitutionnel says the commission for the examination of the public accounts, express a con viction that the efforts of the Government to establish an equilibrium of budgets of receipts and expenditure will be crowned with success. The ocean squadron, which was to sail from Brest on the 28th ult., has received counter orders. It is, however, said that orders have been trans mitted to the squadron to be in readiness to sail. Letters from Lot, Garonne, state that the rise in the price of corn, which had become alarming, had ceased, and that th ere i s even a s light decline at Villeneuwe, Marrnande, and Moissac, owing to the effect which the arrival of foreign corn has on the market. On the 31st ult. the price of corn declined at Lille If. 50c. p er h ec t o lit re . A decline was likewise experienced in Normandy, and at Marseilles there were daily arrivals of vessels laden with grain, from the Levant. The sea of Mar mora is full of such vessels on their way to Europe. The Liberte of Lille says the Mayor of that town has just received official notice that their Majesties will not come there before September 15.

We learn from Vienna, Aug. 29, that Prince Gortschakoff was inspecting the line of the Danube when he received the dispatches informing him of the Sultan's acceptance of the Vienna Note. He returned immediately to his head-quarters, and sent couriers in various directions. The Russian officers expected the immediate evacuation of the Principalities. A letter from Vienna, of the 29th ult., in the Nuremberg Correspondent, says :—" According to letters from Belgrade, Count de Nesselrode has com pletely set the mind of Prince Alexander at rest rela tive to the project of occupying Servia by Austrian troops; but they add that, at the same time, he has ap - plied tohave the armaments which were commenced suspended, to have certain modifications effected in the administration, and some public function aries, who were displeasing to the protecting power, dismissed. This application applies in particular to the Senate, from which it is desired to exclude the members hostile to Austria. The withdrawal of the Austrian corps from the frontiers is considered as a proof of the intention of the Emperor of Rus sia to call back his troops from the Danubian Principalities. The courier of the Turkish Cabinet, who left Constantinople on the 20th, with the ac ceptance by the Divan of the project of mediation of Austria, arrived here yesterday. He was also the bearer of dispatches frOm Lord Stratford de Redcliffe to Lord Westmoreland. He made the journey in seven days." Accounts have been received from Malta of the 29th. The mail, with letters from the fleet at Besika Bay, had arrived the day previous, and it was asserted that the fleet would return to Malta in the course of the month of September. All the letters written by the English naval officers to their families were in that sense. Several transport vessels had been dispatched from Malta, with coal and stores required by Admiral Dundas. The Austrian Consul at Malta had returned to that island from Smyrna. PRUSSIA A letter from Schwerin, of the 27th ult., states that the military convention, which had been in force since 1849, between Prussia and Mecklenburg- Schwerin, has been just put an end to. BELGIUM. The King of the Belgians, - the Duke and Duchess de Brabant, the Count de Flandre, and the Princess Charlotte, returned to Bruges on Tuesday evening from Ostend. The illustrious party found the city brilliantly illuminated. The next day there was a grand historical and religious cavalcade, in imitation of those of the olden time. After it was over, the King, the Princes, and Princesses left for Ghent, and on their arrival in that city were received with most hearty enthusi asm. His Majesty and their Royal Highnesses afterwards attended a grant banquet offered by the city, and visited the theatre, and a grand fete at the Casino. Everywhere they were greeted with acclamations. The Belgian journals state that of the eight muskets which were taken from the manufactory of arms at Liege, in the recent popular movement, seven have been already returned. They add, to show the deplorable influences of disturbances on account of the dearness of corn, that several dealers had arrived at Liege from Prussia to offer grain at lower prices ; but that, on seeing the as semblage of the populace, they returned without effecting any sale. On the 30th ult. the magistrates of Liege ordered that all the public-houses and cafes in that city shall be closed at nine o'clock in the evening until further orders. They have also interdicted all assemblages of persons in the streets beyond four in number. AUSTRIA. The Government has received the Emperor's orders to modify the state of siege at Milan. The Gazette of the 28th ult. publishes a decree of the Imperial Lieutenant of Lombardy, Count Strassoldo, imposing an additional tax of 6 kreut zers per florin (about one-tenth) upon the province, in order to cover the d e fi c i ts of 1852 and 1853 in the receipts of that part of the empire. The tax is to be levied in the course of the current year, in two instalments, one payable on the 20th of Sep tember, and the other on the 10th of October. All payers of direct taxes, including and the tax upon salaries, a re liable-the income tax to this addi tional tax. ITALY Our letters from Turin, of the 30th ult., state that specie is becomin g daily more scarce in that city and at Genoa, the National Bank had thought proper to limit its metallic i ssue to 1,000,000 per week, and to raise the rate of di sco unt from 5 to 6 per cent. Since then, that alarming situation had ceased ; money had reappeared in abundance, and the National Bank no longer placed restrictions to its operations. This result was ascribed to some measure adopted by M. de Ca vour , on his return The brigades which are to take part in the from the country. manoeuvres at the Camp of Marengo were begin ning to occupy the positions assigned to them. Between 17,000 and 18,000 men will be on the ground about the 10th of September, under the command of the Duke of Genoa. The Royal family now residing at La Spezzia, and the King, who stays at the Chateau of Stupinigi, are to meet there, and to return together, after the military opera tions, to their winter residence of Moncalieri. The death of a clergyman, named Barthelmi Bottaro, had caused a great sensation at Genoa. His funeral was followed by as great a concourse of people as that of the mother of Mazzini. in w v e e ll investigatio n That priest, known for his political psalms, had beeknncoewnn sured by the Holy Congregation of Rome. Having refused to retract his opinions, he became an idol with the Democratic party. His body having been opened exhibited symptoms of poison. The causes t o of justifyiii s tragic a conjecture. were A not judiciary sufficiently had commenced. THE PENINSULAR MAIL. ARRIVAL OF THE TAGUs. The Peninsular Company's steam-ship Tagus arrived at Southampton at midnight yesterday with the usual mails. Her dates are—Gibraltar, Aug. 26 ; Lisbon, 29 ; Oporto, 30 ; and Vigo, 30. She had thirty-eight passengers. In specie the Tagus brought 6,1801., besides 642 half-chests of lemons and other cargo. The Pope's Nuncio at Lisbon was very ill, an d had received the last rites of the Church. The Duke and Duchess of Terceira have arrived by the Tagus, too late to attend the marriage of • the Duke of Brabant at Brussels on behalf of the Queen and King of Portugal. The Lisbon exchanges are quoted this mail 54f d o n a m, Lisbon, 43; a t three Hamburgh,months and Paris, ; Genoa,Amster -532 g2B. Few transactions had taken place, money bills being equally scarce. In the new Three per Cent. Stock a fair amount of business had been done, at 42i to 42 ; few operations in Portugal Bank shares, at 137 to 135 milreis per share, those rates being in Lisbon Bank notes at a discount of ai per cent. The Oporto Bank shares were at 41 to 5 per cent. premium, in metal. The Lisbon letters and papers contain the adver tisement inviting applications for shares in the General Peninsular Company of Portugal. NG, SEPTEMBER LITERATURE. Charles Av,thester. A Memorial. 3 yds. liurs. and Blackett. If it be true, as a poet affirmed, that " next to genius, is the power of feeling where true genius lies," then the author of this work has confessedly at the outset a claim on our attention, for he has thus dedicated it—" To the author of Contarini Fleming,' whose perfect genius suggested this im perfect history." The motto on the title-page is one of those " gems of thought" which Mr. Disraeli has scattered far and wide, as the fabled heroine who never spoke but diamonds and pearls fell in glittering showers around her—" Were it not for music, we might in these days say, the Beautiful is dead." The idea which possessed the mind of him who composed it must have been a grand one, the purpose of his labour partakes of the highest. The reader who enters fully into his subject, shuts out for a time the discords of this jarring world. With the young enthusiast, whose autobiography introduces us to the great and glorious of his worshipped art, he passes into the regions of harmony. The style is simple—that is necessary to the true elucidation of the mysteries described, but there are passages where it rises into the sublime, and instances in which the beautiful irradiates its character and ex pression. - Charles Auchester, the hero, is born of obscure parents, in a quiet town ; but his energies 'could not be confined in such narrow limits. The wish of his heart was to become a musician, and it re vealed itself under every obstacle. His first great struggle to enter the Town Hall, during the cele bration of the Musical Festival there, was the cause of his meeting hi s fi rs t friend, although sub sequently the young aspirant soared so high from his early associate that the one rested on earth, while the other seemed to reach heaven's gate ; yet Lenhart Davy was the one to whom he owed his first step in the mystic scale. It is not the for tunes of this dreamer in search of realities, this visionary who would behold face to face the mighty ones of his day, that give a charm to the narra tive, or shed a grace over the events. Charles Auchester is left poor ; he never distinguished him self ; and his life contained none of those touching episodes which lend romance to the plain, and make the poor need not wealth. He shines with a reflected light, and interests from his surround ing objects. The dream of his young life was fulfilled in being admitted to the Festival, and there he beheld one who served as his hero of thought and fancy. In the description of this feel ing the author is pre-eminently successful. The fervour with which an imaginative soul would at tach itself to one whose power was manifested in the supreme sway over an act which that soul adored—the excitement which would thrill the frame, the exultation which would arouse the spirit, are apparent to the thoughtful, and these are all sketched with the master hand of genius. In no nobler manner could the mighty genius be introduced to us—by no higher triumph could his advent have been celebrated, than by entrancing the heart of one born to the study of the subjects he created, and in forming the day-spring to a pilgrim bound to the glorious shrine of which he was a ministering spirit. Hero-worship belongs to the imaginative and enthusiastic. - Surely, then, it is not out of its sphere among the votaries of music. The events of that day in which he first beheld the Chevalier Seraphael were to Charles Auchester the beginning of a new life ; from then began his happiness. Still it was not all fair and smiling, for he had to leave his family and friends and sojourn among strangers; but, as he owned, it was requisite to shut out all else, if he were ever to be raised " from the valley of material life to the mountain heights of art." Aronach, the master of Charles, is a wonderful character, and some of his sayings are replete with wisdom. The scene is admirably given in which he hears the " One," as his celebrated pupil the Che valier Seraphael is called. _ _ _ 44 It was as if a stone had rolled from his heart, and it had begun to beat like a child's ; it was as if his youth were renewed like the eagle's ; it was as if he were drinking silently but deeply celestial knowledge from those young and heavenly eyes." The culminating point of Seraphael's triumph is at an oratorio in Westminster Abbey. The glory that is rarely gained even by genius was then his own, and high above his celebrated contemporaries was he ranked in the Temple of Fame. To be appreciated, this scene must be studied in the author's language, in which it is depicted con amore. The glowing zeal, the fervid adoration of the young admirer was naturally kindled at this momentous occasion, and most truly is it explained how, when the feel ings are highly strung, and the mind wrapt as it were in the clouds, that most painful was it to the senses to return to earth. Every-day life and com monplace things jarred on the nerves after such a communion with one of the brightest of heaven's messengers, who spoke in language worthy of his home on high. The overture thus began : "It opened like the first dawn of lightning, yet scarce yet lightened morning ; its vast subject introduced with strings alone in that joyous key which so often served him, yet as in the extreme of vaulting distance ; but soon the first trombone blazed out, the second and third responding with their stupendous tones as the amplifi cations of fugue involved and spread themselves more and more ; until, like glory filling up and flooding the height of heaven from the heaven of heavens itself, broke in the organ, and brimmed the brain with the calm of an utter and forceful expression, realised by tone. In sympathy with each instrument, it was alike with none, even as the white and boundless ray of which all beams, all colour tones, are born. The perfect form, the distinct conception of this unbrothered work, left our spirits as the sublime fulfilment confronted them ; for once had genius, upon the wings of aspiration that alone are pure, found all it rose to seek, and mastered without a struggle all that it desired to embrace; for the pervadingpurpose of that creation was the passioned quie tude with which it wrought its way. The vibrating har monies pulse-like, clung to our pulses then, drew up, drew out each heart deep-beating and undistracted, to adore at the throne above from whence all beauty springs. And opening and spreading thus, too intri cately, too transcendentally for criticism, we do not essay, even feebly, to portray that immortal woak of a music-veiled immortal. "Inextricable holiness, precious as the old Hebrew psalm of all that hath life and breath, exhaled from every modulation, each dropped celestial fragrancies, the fresh ness of everlasting Spring. Suggestive—our oratorio suggested nothing here, nothing that we find or feel—all that we seek and yearn to clasp, but rest in our restless ness to discover is beyond us ! In nothing that form of music reminded of our forms of worship—in the day of Paradise it might have been dreamed of, an antepast of earth's last night, and of Eternity at hand—or it might be the dream of Heaven that haunts the loving one's last slumber. "During the last reverberations of that unimaginable Alleluiah, I had not looked up at all ; now I forced my self to do so, lest I should lose my sight of hint, his seal upon all that glory. As Seraphael had risen to depart, the applause, stifled and trembling, but not the less by heartfuls, rose for him. "He turned his face a moment, the heavenly half smile was there ; then, at that very moment, the sum mer sun, that falling downwards in its piercing glare, glowed gorgeous against the flower-leaf windows, flung its burning bloom, its flushing gold, upon that counte nance. We all saw it, all felt it, the seraph-strength, the mortal beauty —and that it was pale as the cheek of the quick and living changed in death—that his mien was of no earthly triumph !" The next phase in the life of the genius is more solemn, but equally glorious. He is left in the realisa tion of his dreams of this world's greatness,but we next find him suff er i ng f rom i ts anguish. Thewreath of fame has been put off for the " Crown ef Mar tyrdom." Whil e hi s renown h a d b een spread abroad to all the civilised nati ons o f th e earth, thegifted has sunk u n d er th e burdens, of his oifts The idolised fav our it e among true. artists was removed from the a r t h e i mmor t a li se d , as if to teach them that only as a passing guest could such a spirit so journ among men. In a valley by the Rhine, far from the strife of cities, did the faithful adherent to the mighty one last behold him. There, at the midnight hour, Charles Auchester dreamed another dream of Sera phael, as he watched him borne by torchlight to the church to await heaven's rest. " That bier was carried proudly as of a warrior called from deadly strife to death's own sleep." Clara, the beloved of the dead in life, the " companion of his earthly hours," as she called herself, is supposed to perform his last composition as a requiem, while the sad procession moved on, lts thrilling tones spoke comfort to the listener at the grave, and seemed to say that " Music never dies," for he whose memory he mourned lived again in her records, that death could not touch. " With all of genius that can perish," passed the beauty of his heart's affection, and the freshness of his early days, but with the everlasting part of genius " that lights its torch at nature's funereal pile," his spirit rose to hail the glory of its chosen king, with the might and majesty of a devotion that could never pass away. Few out of the many who peruse these pages may really and truly appre ciate their purpose ; but all right-thinking and high-minded will acknowledge the sincerity of. ex pression, the consistency of judgment maintained throughout. The love of the art seems to inspire and influence the imagination of the author, and a higher and holier could not be found. " Music is a theme beyond the tongues of men and angels " is declared at the conclusion, which suggests the idea that it is the only one they have in common. Fraser.—A more extravagant contribution was perhaps never inserted in any periodical, than one which appears this month in Fraser's Magazine. It is entitled the " Toad's Curse," than which no thing sillier possibly was ever penned, printed, and published. From first to last it is what the BILLINGSGATE.

Seeing the article, here particu larised, in Fraser, as Pope did with regard to the flies in amber— "One wonders how the devil it got there." As an admirer of Regina we cannot but regret the circumstance of this preposterous paper's insertion. Happily, the credit of the ma gazine is redeemed, in the current number, by several other contributions, some of them distinguished by particular excellence. " A Ger man First of September" is a capital piece of plea santry. " Emily Orford" is continued. Dr. Bow ring makes his re-appearance as a poetical transla tor this time from the Cingalese. Under the title of " By Land and Sea," we have a sort of omnium gatherum review of some works by mo dern travellers. Besides this there is a tragedy, in one act, on the legend of " Madonna Pia," a charming little lyric on the theme " Apres Moi," and an agreeable anecdotal memoir of Mademoiselle Clairon, the Rachel of the reign of Louis XV. The September number of Fraser includes other contributions of a less noteable character, and closes with a resume of the labours of the session highly complimentary to the preKent Government. EXCLUSION OF THE "TIMIES" FROM SPAIN. (Front the Times.) A telegraphic dispatch was received yesterday in Paris, announcing that the Gazette of Madrid, of the 29th ult., contains a Royal decree prohibiting the introdu c ti on an d c i rculation of t h e Ti m es in the whole e x t en t o f t h e Spanish territor i es . We acknowledge that we do not receive with indiffer ence this homage on the part of the Queen of Spain's Government to the truth and the severity of the remarks we have had occasion to make on some ,of the recent acts of the Spanish authorities • and, as it is not in the po wer o f the Camarillo of Madrid to affect in any perceptible degree the influence or the independence of this journal, the formal proscrip tion which the Royal Gazette of Spain has deigned to confer upon us, is precisely the most flattering distinction it could have bestowed. It has not yet reached us for which of our attempts to expose those base, bigoted, and dishonest actions, which are always so painful to the feelings of a high minded and enlightened Government, this honour has been especially reserved. But several cases have recently occurred which may have been thought to deserve it. One day we had occasion to com ment on a report of the British House of Com mons, containing, in a condensed official statement the sums received by Spain, and the promises she has broken in her zealous and successful pursuit of the slave trade ; and we showed that the largest share of the profit, and the guilt aris ing from these infamous transactions may be distinctly traced to some of the highest persons in the kingdom, who feed their insatiable avarice with the blood-money of kidnapped negroes. Another day NI - e met the same persons, or their instruments and associates, in another capacity. They arrived cap in hand to practise on the i nex h aus tibl e credu- lit of our countrymen, who persist in believing mankind, and even Spanish Ministers, to be honest, and are willing, with a little encouragement, to swell the account of Spanish bonds with a few ad ditional millions for Spanish railroads. That im posture, too, we endeavoured to unmask, and we should not wonder if this turns out to be our gravest offence, for the Spanish Government is much more sensitive to our interference with its speculations than to our criticisms on its humanity or its honour. Next came Mr. Soule's mission and the correspondence which has taken place with reference to the threatened annexation of Cuba by the United States ; for we are alternately amazed at the degradation of the Court of Madrid in consenting to receive a Minister who has been selected only to menace and insult it, and at the inconsistency with which Spain still invokes the assistance of England and France to perpetuate her possession of an island which is now the last refuge of the slave trade. Lastly, we learn by Lord Howden's correspondence with the present Spanish Ministers, that when Englishmen have been tempted to Spain to defend her independence by their valour, or to enrichher by their industry, it' is her settled policy and determination to aeny them Christian burial, and to inflict a last insult on their graves. Practices of intolerant supersti tion have been disclosed by this correspondence which no other Roman Catholic country would now avow, and which even the provincial towns of Spain, appear in many instances, to have over come. At Rome, under the direct authority of the Pope, a suitable place of burial has long since been set apart for Protestants, and the obsequies of the dead may be decently performed. In Spaik alone those offices are rigorously denied, and though the Government of Isabella 11. began by plundering the Church of its property, it sanctions the full exercise of the rights of bigotry over the remains of fellow-Christians. It can matter but little to the Spanish Govern ment in what phraseology their conduct has been described by this journal, and it matters not at all to us whether our opinions are circulated in the Spanish territories. But we will undertake to assert that the terms we have applied to these revolting cases are but a weak expression of what is thought of them by the great mass of the English public, or, at least, by such part of the English p u bli c a s have thought at all on the subject. The generous enthuisiasm, the con fiding delusions, the terrible struggle, the pro longed sacrifices of long-past years, the revivin g hopes of another period, and the triumph of the constitutional cause in Spain, are still not entirely forgotten by us, though they are so, apparently, by those who were supposed to be most interested in the events to whichw - e refer. But it is infinitely more grievous that Spain should have betrayed her own cause, and failed in the work of her own regenera tion, than that she should have added the fault of ingratitude to the long catalogue of her errors and her crimes. She has often had violent, arbitrary, and bad Governments,rbut even their offences were in some degree dignified by the spirit she displayed under adverse fortunes, and the pride which still concealed as far as possible the ruin of that old and stately house. The balance of parties, the rise or fall of a st ttesman or a general, and the romantic incidents of the revolution still kept alive for some years the interest so deeply felt. But gradually every light has gone out, every liberty has been extinguished, every man who had served the Crown with honour has been dismissed, and the country remains passive in the hands of a profligate Court and a nameless Government. All national energy, as applied to the political condition of the country, has for a considerable time seemed to be suspended, and the obscure persons who affect to carry on the business of the State are neither respected in their own country nor heard of in any other. The exist -1 ence of such an administration depends on the total absence of discussion, for, if public opinion were either enlightened or consulted as to its merits, the humiliation would be too great to be endured. By one of the abrupt changes which which are suit th not un commone in Spanish history, and genius of the people better than a tena g c e i v o e u ru s perse verance in the arduous dutie s of free beod it i one day no part of our followed by the chastisementstatf things it will deserves, and duty to anticipate that event. Possibly in Spain, as well as in other countries, the revolution has still to run out its long unprofitable course, which has as yet founded nothing stable or dignified in the seat of government, and conferred little free dom or real advancement cn the people. At some future day the elder branch of the Royal family may be found to have gained some experience by its misfortunes, or the exhausted race of Bourbon Kings will be driven from the s oil ; but, as long as Spain remains what she is, these questions have a very faint interest for other countries. She has ceased to throw the slightest weight into the balance of power, or to act upon the general politics of the world, either in America or in Europe. The transient energy which Gene ral Narvaez had given to the Administration, and the reforms introduced by Senor Mon into the finances, are at an end ;—a people once the wealthi est in the world have ceased to pay interest on their debts, and an empire once the widest on the globe is reduced to a couple of islands, which will probably one day be wrested from it by a party of bucaniers. It is not because these things may be said of... Spain by foreign journals that her credit is extinct, and her last possessions menaced. She suffers not because they are said, but because they are true. It was long the ardent hope of this country, and the constant policy of the British Government, to see the Peninsula reassert all its independence and regain all its power,, for no country is better fitted by nature and by position to maintain a close and advantageous Connexion with ourselves. But in an age of rapid progress Spain has chosen to remain almost stationary ; in an age of toleration she retains the bigotry of Philip 11. ; in an age when public opinion forces its way through all the barriers of despotic power she does what she can to arrest its progress. We know not how far the attempt may succeed, but the more it succeeds the more it cuts off the Spanish people from the intercourse and sympathy they might re tain with the rest of Europe ; and we shall not be surprised ere long to see the country in a con dition which may cause it to regret the alienation of its oldest friends.

The trade generally continues steady and good. The markets on ( the Leeds change of Saturday and Tuesday were of a fair character. The business do ne was a b ou t an average. The stock of cloth in the mark e t con ti nues ver y low. Prices are without alteration. Several buyers from London, and other parts of the country, have been in the town during the week, which has given considerable activity to business in the warehouses. There is also rather more doing in the shipping trade at present. Some respectable orders have been received from Australia by the recent mails, so that, on the whole, there is a fair average trade doing in the warehouses for the season. BRADFORD, Thursday. —The market of this day was marked by dulness, which was not unaccounted for, as the wet and boisterous weather, and the strong attrac tions of the St. George's Hall festival, no doubt had a disturbing influence. Wool maintains its price, but is insufficient to enable the stapler to meet the demands of the farmer. As yarns sho wed a downward tendency, little was done in them, the spinners preferring to work up former orders, and wait the chances of the market. HALIFAX, Aug. 27.—With the exception of low mixtures, for which there is some little inquiry, the demand for worsted goods is almost at a stand in our piece-hall. In yarns there is no change, either as to demand or price ; and the wool market is quiet, at late quotations. LEICESTER.—Our market still continues in the same healthy condition it has been for some time past, and although yarns have advanced full sixpence per lb. from their prices twelvemonths since, and workmanship also above 10 per cent., still there appears no likelihood of a falling off in demand. The wrought hose branch have solicited an advance of 3d. per dozen, and are likely to obtain it, the hose being in request, and the market clear of heavy stocks on hand. There is no alteration in yarns. Wools are ready sale at a trifling advance. Farmers' lots are more sought after, and obtain from 375. to 395, according to quality. per tod, ARTIFICIAL PR OPA (CATION OF SALMON. (Front the Perthshire Courier.) A meeting of the salmon fishing proprietors in the River Tay was held in the County-buildings on Friday last, for the purpose of considering a letter by Dr. Es daile regarding the artificial propagation of salmon. The Lord Provost was called to the chair. Mr. Diossox, writer, clerk to the proprietors, stated the object of the meeting, and said that Dr. Esdaile inf othebyDr. E t misoenneat to iiLn communicate,then rose, and s said he he ha d h andono practicala dd i additional n e a x l . kpneraiwenlecdegeonhethheadsuebajneecetronfiag propagating was paga chiefly derivedtingsalmon others, and espec i ally from what had been written by Mr. Thomas A s h worth, of Poynton, Cheshire. W from That gentleman was present, and fortunat e ly he would be theregarding the Ga w m a o y d i e n a d lre opted land f . o r D propagating n th sa e l n na ro i enabled to give m uc h use f ul and practical information duced Mr. Ashworth to the meeting. A bottle was then exhibited, in which were preserved young salmon, of from three to six months' growth. It was admitted by all who examined the bottle that the largest fish in it, about five inches in length, was a par. Mr. THOMAS ASHWORTH said, he had come to this part of the country to gather all the information he could obtain, having seen the letter of Dr. Esdaile, ad dressed to salmon-fishing proprietors in the Tay, on the " Artificial Propagation of the Salmon ;" and it was at Dr. Esdaile's request that he had consented to stay in Perth another day to attend the present meeting. He (Mr. Ashworth) had entertained the opinion for a long time that it would be as easy artificially to propagate salmon in our rivers as it was to raise silkworms on mulberry leaves, though the former were under water, and the latter in the open air. He said that it was an established fact, that salmon and other fish may be propagated artificially in ponds in millions, at a, small cost, and th us b e pro t ecte d f rom their natural' ene mies for the first year of their existence, after which they will be much more capable of protecting themselves than can be the case in the early stages of their existence. His brother and he have at the present time about 20,000 young salmon in ponds, thus produced, w hi c h are daily fed with suitable food. In the course of last year Mr. Thomas Garnet and Mr. Peel, of Lancashire, informed his brother and himself that Robert Rams bottom, a fishing-tackle-maker at Clitheroe, had about two years ago succeeded in artificially filling a small pond with young salmon. The plan adopted by him was a very simple one. He with great care lifted the salmon from the river into a tub of water, and extracted their spawn, which was deposited in boxes filled with with and gravel ; they were placed in a running stream, and by this means had produced the young salmon. His brother, Mr. Edmund Ashworth, and himself having purchased "the Galway Salmon Fishery. " in Ireland, they determined to try an experiment there for the artificial propagation of salmon, under the superintendence of Mr. Ramsbottom. A suitable place have been fixed upon at Outerard, operations were com menced between the 20th December and Ist January last, which was about a month too late, yet boxes were prepared in which the spawn of the salmon were depo sited. These boxes were about eighteen inches square and six feet in length, with a zinc grating in the sluice at either end. There were twenty boxes in all, which were filled with gravel or small stones to the depth of six inches. To procure the ova and milt of the female and male salmon, the fish were taken by small nets on the spawn fords at night, and instantly and without in jury put into a tub one-fourth full of water. The female fish was first turned on her back, one man holding the tail, another running his hands down each side from the head, and pressing lightly with his thumbs, the ova was readily discharged into the tub; a similar course readily discharged the milt. About 370 salmon were treated in the above man ner. and ae• b ain returned to the river. Mr. Ashworth then ex plained how the ova and milt were mixed in the tub, and then taken out of it with a cup and deposited in the boxes, when it was covered with additional gravel Mr. Ramsbottom supposed that there was put in the boxes spawn sufficient for 40,000 ; however that might be, there are at present about 20,000 young salmon alive and thriving in these ponds , from 2 inches t o 3 i nc h es i n length. Mr. Ashwo r th then, in answer to several questions put by Mr. Graham, of Redgorton, stated that the fine zinc gratings were used to prevent both s in al t m o o th n e tir p y o . nds ll , as e t t h h e e y n trout were and very i r d is e e s e t t r s u from etive g tn ett t i h n e g detailed, at some length, the mode adopted in France for the artificial propagation of salmon, carp, trout, and other species of fish. The boxes there used were 3 feet in depth, 18 inches in width, and 50 yards in length, and without bottoms, but filled about 6 inches in depth with clean gravel. In answer to other ques tions, Mr. Ashworth said the ponds were about 20 yards in length, and 12 to 13 yards in breadth, and that it was intended to keep the young salmon in them for ten inches in when they will have grown to about four in length. They would then be able to take care of themselves on their way to the sea. He stated also that it was indispensable the young salmon should be fed daily wit h chopped flesh meat. In France they were fed on frogs' flesh pounded in a mortar quite small. The current of water running through the boxes must be pure and free from mud, and great care was required to be taken during the periods of incubation, when the rivers were flooded by heavy rains, to divert the muddy water from the boxes. It took about 100 days until the spawn gave indications of life. Mr. Ashworth then observed that a great deal had yet to be discovered in the artificial propagation and feeding of salmon. They knew but comparatively little of the habits of salmon, and in order that a greater amount of knowledge might be ob tained he had recommended to the commissioners of fishe ries in Ireland to take a portion of the fish propagated in the way he had mentioned from the ponds and immerse them annually in the sea for a period of three months, and to be again deposited in the ponds for other nine months, to be repeated for several years. The com missioners had taken about a dozen of these young sal mon from the ponds, and had had them many weeks in the Dublin Exhibition, where they were kept in a model of a wear, with a salmon ladder in it, the model being supplied by a pipe, with a constant run of water. These little creatures showed their agility by mounting the ladder, and so passing over the wear, to the amusement of the bystanders ; and he was informed they were alive and thriving, being perfectly healthy in this small run of pure water, and were fed with chopped meat every day. It was only in this way a more accurate history of the ages and habits of the salmon species might be written. The expense of this plan of artificial propaga tion he did not estimate to exceed a pound a thousand, which was at the rate of one farthing for each salmon. At the conclusion of Mr. Ashworth's lucid remarks, Sir PATRICK M. THRIEPLAND moved " That the thanks of the meeting be tendered to that gentleman for the important information which he had communicated." Colonel BELSHES seconded the motion, and which being unanimously agreed to, the CHAIRMAN conveyed the sense of the meeting to Mr. Ashworth. In acknowledging the compliment pa id him, Mr. ASHWORTH ASHWORTH said he bad no pecuniary objecvi ew he in bad made. in addressing the few remarks to the meeting__ m was, that The great consideration that weighed w a ith vast increase to by the artificial propagation of salm on ldbe obtained. He the quantity of human food would meeting the import ancethen strongly impressed upon to commence opt • for Mr . Ramsbottom of sending rations in the Tay, and instruct others as to the plants to be adopted for increasing the salmon in that river. steps Mr, CONDIE was of opinion that immediate ought to be taken t o commence operations before the close of the fishing season. The suggestions of Mr. Condie were adopted. Colonel BELSHES moved that the following noblemen and gentlemen be appointed a committee, viz., the Duke of Athol], the Earl of Man sfield , the Lord Provost of Perth, Mr. Graham, of Redgorton ; Mr. Condie, `Bell, Dr. Esdaile, and Mr. Robert Buist, with power to add to their!number ; that they take immediate step to commence operations, and report to an early meetinj- The motion was immediately agreed to, and Colonel Belches added to the committee. A. vote of thanks was awarded to the Lord Provost for his conduct in the chair, and the meeting then septa* rated. 10 I 6 12 121 10 25 10 1.0.6
