took place last night, when the performances consisted of '
Mozart's "Requiem" and Handers "Dotting= Te Daum"—
a weßelilleen smeekitiou, since the bright and jubilant toes
of some portions of the latter piece are an tamable ear
trait to the solemnity which necessarily characterises the
preceding work. This effect of contrast and climax has
been sometimes overlooked in former seasons, when the
"Requiem* has formed the latter half of the performance,

THE CATTLE TRADE.

Yesterday afternoon a deputation from the
Council of the Royal Agricultural Society of England—
consisting of Mr. W. F. H. Thompson (president), the
Earl of Powia, Major-General the Hon. A. N. Hood, Mr.
Cartrell, and Mr. 11. Hall Dare (secretary)—had an inter-
view with the Duke' of Buckingham, Lord President of
the Privy Council, on the subject of the cattle trade.
Mr. THoMSON submitted to his grace the points to
which the council particularly wiahed to draw the atten-
tion of the Lords of the Privy Council, namely The
importation of foreign cattle; 2nd. The re-opening of
fairs and markets ; and 3rd. The necessity of extending the
time during which the powers granted to the Privy Coun-
cil under the seta of the last session maybe exercised. With
respect to the first point, the council believe that the exist-
ing restrictions are probably sufficient for the present,
but they think that unless they are made permanent, it
will not be considered worth while to erect lairs for the
purpose of carrying out regulations which may be only of
a temporary nature, and that consequent)y_ such as relate
to quarantine will become inoperative. With respect to
the second and third points, they think considerable
danger will be incurred by re-opening fairs and markets at
the present time.
A conversation then took place, and in reply to goes.
tions put by the members of the deputation,
The LORD PHILKIDENT said that in regard to the im•
poriation of foreign cattle, there was no power to make
the restrictions permanent. It was probable that one
large place for importation would be opened in the course
of a week at Harwich. The plans were not yet sent up,
but from two interviews they had had with the railway
authorities, the land appeared to be well isolated
and convenient for landing. There were a number of
acres of pasture land divided by salt-water creeks, which
were said never to have less than three or four feet of salt
water at the lowest ebb. The northernmost of the two
piers it was propored to set aside for the landing of cattle.
Harwich was the only port which had applied which had
sufficient area. His grace read a rough draft of the regu-
lations which it was proposed to make with regard to the
pens, and which were still under discussion. The pens
were to be entirely in charge of the Boerd of Customs,
just as if they were bonded warehouses, and it was pro-
posed that the inspector of the quarantine's certificate that
the animals had remained 38 days ind had bad no disease
should be equivalent the order ordinarily given for the
removal of stock. Wit to
h regard to the second point, the
re-opening of fairs and markets, of course that was a ques-
tion of time. They were re-opened in Scotland without
any ill consequences.
A Mem lite of the DEI'I*TATII —Scotland has been free
of all plague fur a greater length of time than England.
The UAW P11E.411,1.2.4T—The markets were opened within
one mouth of the last care, and there had been no re-sp-
pearance. As he understood, the opinion of the Royal
Society was that all hem urkets for stxwe cattle should be
clo,ed ; and that the regulations should be of a permanent
character. Ifid they apprehend great danger from animals
imported under strict quarantine?
Mr. Teonll4oN—Not if the samemachinery was keptnp.
The Loup Per:AfDENT adverted to the fact of the local
authorities getting rid of their inspectors, awl said that if,
as might possibly occur, the disease bloke out again and
spread over the country, they would bees bed as they were
last year if the procera of reduction went on. It would
take some time to reorg 'nine the staff again.
A MEN BIM of the Deer' trios—Would it not be well to
issue a &cull]. calling tbe attention of the local authorities
to the inexpediency of reducing the number of inspectors?
The LORI' Pere serer said that had been already done.
The deputation then thanked his grace for the cour-
teous manner in which he had received them, and with-
drew.
