INTENDED VISIT OF THE BRITISH ASSOCIATION
TO SIIIIEWSTSITRY.-it is stated that a considerable number
of the members of the British Association (who this year
hold their meeting in Birmingham) intend to visit Shrews-
bury on Sept. 9, for the purpose of inspecting the museum.
They purpose afterwards going over to Wroxeter to view
the interesting remains of the ancient city of Uriconium.
THE EARL OF DUDLEY.--It is curious to observe
how ironmaking seems to have been the particular occupa-
tion of this family ; for ever since the 16th century to the
present day, it has always been remarkable for being re-
presented by ono of the largest ironmasters of its time ;
and it may be safely said that no family in England has
been so long or so largely associated with the iron trade as
the noble house of Dudley.-- Nee a Week.,

COUNTRY MARKETS

LYNN--'TUESDAY.

At our corn exchange to-day the supply of old wheat
was small. The wetness of the weather caused a further
advance of 2s per qr. to be paid ; some new samples were
shown, the quality and condition of which were poor,
weighing from 601 b. to 611 b.-per bushel. Bean; oats, and
barley were in better request at advancing prices.
New wheat, 46s to 48s ; new red, 41s to 435; old white,

WEST YORKSHIRE.

The report of the directors stated that the net re-
venue was £12,232, after providing for preference
dividends and all other charges, except income-tax,
and would give £3 17s. Id. per cent. for the half-
yeareor being at the rate of £7 14s. 2d. per cent.
per annum on the ordinary capital. The reserve fund
was likely to realise £22,000, and this would have
to be distributed by resolution at a special meeting.
The bill for amalgamating the company with that
of the Great Northern Company was passed on sth
July last.

AYLESBURY.

Yesterday afternoon the committee of the newly-
formed Association for Mutual Assurance against
Loss by the Cattle Plague held a meeting, lasting
nearly four hours, at the Crown Hotel, Aylesbury,
to draw up rules to be submitted to a general meet-
ing of members to be held next Wednesday. The
chair was occupied by Mr. W. Rose, of Eythrope,
and there was a full attendance of committeemen,
besides others who were deeply interested in the
subject, Messrs. H. Lepper and George A. Lepper,
veterinary surgeons to the Pleuro-pneumonia Asso-
ciation, being present.

Generally speaking, the rules of the society spe-
cially formed for assurance during the emergency of
the smallpox among sheep in 1862 formed the basis of
the rules, and certain points were reserved for the
decision of the body of members—such as, whether
assurance should be by poundage or at a certain rate
per head of stock, whether the cattle should be valued
at an average or a maximum amount be fixed, &c.
The rules having been drawn up,
Mr. J. K. FOWLER recommended that an appeal
should be made to the inhabitants of the county to
subscribe to a reserve fund, for he felt assured that
they, having an equal interest with the farmers in
the supply of wholesome meat, would on such appeal
substantially sympathise with them in the present
emergency. He and Mr. Fell, the secretary of the
Bucks Agricultural Society, had just had, in refer-
ence to the arrangements for its approaching annual
show, a letter from the President, Mr. Disraeli, M.P.,
who said he thought it was necessary to make such
appeal to the owners of the soil in the county, who
were, or ought to be, greatly interested iu the pros-

On the question of inspection of cattle various
suggestions were made, and Mr. DENCIIFIELD said
that the plague had come within six or seven miles
of Aylesbury, that diseased cattle were being carried
along the London and North-Western Railway al-
most daily, and that as there was a large number of
beasts brought into the Vale of Aylesbury from the
metropolitan markets every week the justices would
be justified in making some order on the subject.

due in April and October, instead of on the Ist of
January and Ist of July, to which dates the half-
yearly accounts were made up. They thought it
therefore better to carry over the present balance
than to declare a larger dividend than was proposed,
especially as a similar sum would have to be taken
out of the profits of the current half-year to make
up the difference.

The Secretary, in reply to a question, stated that
the year's interest on loans was about £20,000, and
that the arrear mentioned had existed since 1842,
but that in every succeeding year the full year's in-
terest had been paid out of revenue.
The report was adopted ; a dividend at the rate
of 41 per cent. per annum was declared on the
preference shares, and at the rate of 3,1 per cent.
per annum on the ordinary shares for the past half-
year, payable on the 16th inst.

The meeting was then made special, to consider
the propriety of sanctioning the lease of the under-
taking to the Great Eastern Company.
Mr. 'rrREMAN, the solicitor to the company, read
the principal portions of the lease, and explained
nearly the whole of it to various shareholders. The
object was to lease the London and Blackwall Rail-
way to the Great Eastern Railway Company for
999 years at a rental equivalent to 4} per cent. on
the ordinary capital of the company ; the lessees
taking on themselves all the liabilities, and guaran-
teeing 4i per cent. on the nominal capital of the
London and Blackwall and Millwall Extension
Railway, which was sanctioned in the last session of
Parliament. The first half-year's rent would be
due on the Ist of July, 1866, and from which there
could be no deduction except for income-tax or
property-tax. _ _ _

After some discussion, in which Mr. J. M. Par-
sons, Mr. Jeggins, Mr. G. Smith, Mr. Whetham,
and Mr. J. R. Frewer took part, the resolution ap-
proving the lease of the line and property to the
Great Eastern Company and authorising the seal of
the company to be affixed thereto, was carried.
After a recommendation from the meeting that the
present auditors be continued in office during the
construction of the extension lines, the proceedings
concluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman
and directors, and to Mr. Tyreman, the solicitor,
for their attention to the interests of the company.
London, England, 1865-08-17

UNGENTLEMANLY CONDUCT TO THE MAGISTRATE.—Mr.
John M. Swan, a gentleman residing at New Swindon,
appeared before Mr. Knox charged with attempting to
rescue a female from custody, and also with assaulting
Police-constable Allwood, 186 C.l
It appears that about two in the morning of the 23th ult.
two women, named Lester and Watson, were fighting in
the Haymarket. They were taken into custody by the
police, and the defendant (Swan) interfered by trying to
get ono of the females away, at the same time exclaiming
" Don't take the woman into custody." A scene of the
greatest confusion ensued, and some man in the crowd
struck the defendant, upon which he struck out and gave
Allwood, 186 C, a blow in the face. The defendant was
then taken into custody, as also was the young woman.
When before Mr. Knox, and after the constables had given
evidence, a young man came forward and said that on asking
a constable (Butcher) whether it was not a constable who
struck the defendant, he declined to say. Upon this Mr
Knox said he would adjourn the case that Butcher might
attend, and take ono bail in £5 for the defendant's reap-
pearance. The defendant said he was not able to find bail,
and, Mr. Knox not willing to send him to prison, in default,
took his word, the defendant assuring him that not only
would he attend, but send a gentleman to put in the re-
quired bail. The defendant, however, did not attend,
neither did any one on his behalf, and a warrant was
therefore issued against him, but before it was out he
attended.

After hearing evidence, which showed that it was not a
constable who struck him, the defendant said he could not
possibly attend at the time fixed.
Mr. Knox said the defendant had not treated him in a
gentlemanly way, and had deceived him personally, and
might have got him into trouble through his foolish com-
passion. The obligation the defendant was under to
attend was not only one of law, but of honour, and was of
more importance than the case itself, which after all was
only trumpery ono, and might have been disposed of on
the first occasion. He should fine the defendant 20s. or 14
days.
London, England, 1865-08-17

NORFOLK.

A meeting of veterinary surgeons has been held
at Norwich, at which some interesting facts were
communicated. Mr. Smith stated that the most
seriously infected districts of Norfolk were Trunch,
Swafield, North Walsham, and Bradfield. About
North Walsham there were six infected occupa-
tions. In some cases every head of cattle had been
lost or destroyed. In one case four were foreign
beasts, and the carcases were bought by Norwich
butchers, and forwarded to Norwich either to be
sold in Norwich or sent to London. On the same
farm he and Professor Simonds found several head
of young stock diseased and in a dying state. There II
were also some carcases buried in a pit, and covered
with a few broken sticks and leaves, the stench
from the pit being something impossible to describe.
Professor Simonds requested that mould should be
placed over the carcases to the depth of sft. or 6ft.,
or the whole neighbourhood would be infected. The
professor suggested that the dry portions of the lit-
ter made by these beasts should be collected and
burnt, and that the litter containing faecal matter
should be treated with chloride of lime, and left so
for some weeks. He also recommended that in the
event of there being any other cases and the ani-
mals should die the skins should be put in a solution
of lime before being sent off the premises. Some
Irish beasts bought on Norwich cattle-hill, and
which had been exhibited in Copenhagen-fields, ap-
peared to have carried the disease into the district.
The rinderpest was supposed to have appeared
among some cows at Islington about June 21, and
it was found in Norfolk July 2at Reepham. Mr.
Smith stated that instances of the disease had been
also met with at Wood Dalling, Foulsham, Guist,
Thimblethorpe, &c. Mr. Smith added that a suffi-
cient staff of Government inspectors would pro-
bably be appointed, and that Professor Simonds
would only recommend for appointment those vete-
rinary surgeons who held the diploma of the Royal
Veterinary College. The treatment Professor
Simonds advises is the use of diffusable stimulants
in the early stages to be shortly followed up by
doses of sulphate of soda.

Liverpool Cotton Market—This Day.

Although holders offer freely, spinners are very
cautious, and the sales will probably only amount
to 7,000 or 8,000 bales.

The biddings for bills on India took place yes-
terday afternoon at the Bank of England. The
proportions allotted were--to Calcutta, £169,300 ;
to Madras, nil; and to Bombay, £97,000. The
minimum price was as before—ls. Mid. on Cal-
cutta and Madras, and ls. 10411. on Bombay. Ten-
ders on Calcutta at is. Hid. will receive about 30
per cent., and on Bombay at Is. Hid. about 80
per cent. above those prices in full. These results
show a very slight increase in the demand for means
of remittance to the East.

The Proposed Russian Telegraphic Line to

America,

The St. Petersburg Journal publishes the follow-
ing, which it has copied from the Poste du Nord:—
" The I oste du Nord gives some curious details
respecting the construction of the telegraphic line
which will connect Europe with America, passing
through Russian territory. As far back as 1854
different companies made proposals to the Russian
Government to undertake the work, but they were
declined. The Government, at its own expense,
ordered the construction of a line which passes from
Moscow, by Kazan and Irkoutsk, to Verchneou-
dinsk, with a branch line to Kiachta. To continue
this line to Nicolaieffsk, at the mouth of the Amour,
there remains but little to be done, and then the
works can be commenced which have been under-
taken by an American company with a capital of
$10,000,000. According to the terms of the con-
tract between the Russian Government and this
company, a telegraphic line is to be completed within
five years, passing through the Behring Straits, the
Russian possessions in America, and English Co-
lumbia, to San Francisco, where it would join the
American line. The conditions agreed to by the
company are most advantageous to the company.
The privileges of the company for the line between
Nicolaieffsk and the American lines is only for 35
years. The company undertakes to erect at its
own cost, along the whole line, roads, bridges, and
stations. As regards the latter, it reserves to itself
the right of occupying them, as also the block houses
of the company, should circumstances render such
a step necessary. All the servants of the company
upon Russian territory are to be of Russian na-
tionality."

The Cattle Plague.

The following communication relating to the puri-
fication of cattle trucks has been addressed to the
various railway companies by the Board of Trade :
" Board of Trade (Railway Department),
Whitehall, S.W., Aug. 14.
" Sir,—l am directed by the Lords of the Committee of
Privy Council for Trade to request you to refer to my letter
of the 7th inst., addressed to theseeretary of your company
enclosing a copy of a communication made to the Board by
direction of the Lord President of the Council, which, with
a view to prevent the extension of the existing cattleplague,
urged on the directors of railway companies, as a public
duty, that they should take immediate steps for instructing
their officers to see that stringent regulations be made and
enforced to insure cleanliness in all matters connected with
the conveyance of cattle.
" In a more recent letter the Lords of the Council have
communicated to this department that it is imperatively
necessary that their Lordships should be satisfied that all
possible measures of prevention are being adopted to miti-
gate the severity, and to prevent the spread of this fearful
disease ; and have requested that this Board will ascertain
and inform their Lordships what steps have been taken by
each Railway Board to comply with the recommendations
made to them in the above-mentioned letter of the 7th of
August.

" The Lords of this Committee are anxious to procure
for the Lords of the Council at the earliest moment the in-
formation with respect to railways for which they have
applied.

"I am, therefore, to beg that you will immediately com-
municate to the Board of Trade full particulars of the steps
which aro being taken by your company, and of any steps
which they intend to take, in accordance with the recom-
mendations conveyed to them in my letter of the 7th of
August ;
.and I am to add, that my Lords will esteem it a
favour if you will give to this matter your earliest possible
attention.—l am, sir, your obedient servant,

"W. D. FASE.
" The Manager of the Railway Company."

NORFOLK.

A meeting of veterinary surgeons has been held
at Norwich, at which some interesting facts were
communicated. Mr. Smith stated that the most
seriously infected districts of Norfolk were Trunch,
Swafield, North Walsham, and Bradfield. About
North Walsham there were six infected occupa-
tions. In some cases every head of cattle had been
ilost or destroyed. In one case four were foreign
beasts, and the carcases were bought by Norwich
butchers, and forwarded to Norwich eithe,sr to be
sold in Norwich or sent to London. On the same
farm he and Professor Simonds found several head
of young stock diseased and in a dying state. There
were also some carcases buried in a pit, and covered
with a few broken sticks and leaves, the stench
from the pit being something impossible to describe.
Professor Simonds requested that mould should be
placed over the carcases to the depth of sft. or 6ft.,
or the whole neighbourhood would be infected. The
professor suggested that the dry portions of the lit-
ter made by these beasts should be collected and
burnt, and that the litter containing faecal matter
should be treated with chloride of lime, and left so
for some weeks. He also recommended that in the
event of there being any other cases and the ani-
mals should die the skins should be put in a solution
of lime before being sent off the premises. Some
Irish beasts bought on Norwich cattle-hill, and
which had been exhibited in Copenhagen-fields, ap-
peared to have carried the disease into the district.
The rinderpest was supposed to have appeared
among some cows at Islington about June 21, and
it was found in Norfolk July 2at Reepham. Mr.
Smith stated that instances of the disease had been
also met with at Wood Dolling, Foulsham, Guist,
Thimblethorpe, &c. Mr. Smith added that a suffi-
cient staff of Government inspectors would pro-
bably be appointed, and that Professor Simonds
would only recommend for appointment those vete-
rinary surgeons who held the diploma of the Royal
Veterinary College. The treatment Professor
Simonds advises is the use of diffusable stimulants
in the early stages to be shortly followed up by
doses of sulphate of soda.
