PARLIAMENTARY PAPERS.

The Seventeenth Annual Report of the Commissioners
of Woods and Forests was published on Tuesday ; the
following are the most interesting notices. The report
is dated the 25th of August last, and contains full parti-
culars, together with the minutest items, of all their pro-
ceedings during the preceding year :
PUBLIC SALES.—There have been five sales of the
land revenues of England, producing 18,2201.
PRIVATE SALES.—The total of these sales during the
year yielded 88,7661. lls. 6d. Amongst the items is
mentioned that of the Fleet Prison, which had been
offered for public competition, but for which only nine
tenders had been sent in, varying in amount from 8,2001.
to 18,0001. As, however, the minimum price had been
previously fixed at 25,0001., none of the tenders were ac-
cepted ; and, in consequence, the purchase was finally
made by the City of London for 25,0001., which In-
cluded the entire freehold estate, such sum to be paid
by the Corporation free of the conveyancing expenses.
METROPOLITAN IMPROVEMETS.—The purchase money
for the following improvements is thus stated by the
commissioners:—

be paid, for property required for the formation of this
park, amounts to 86,8731. 3s. ld. The park is now en-
closed, and partly laid out and planted. The commis-
sioners state that 20,000 persons have frequently resorted
to it in the course of a day, for recreation and exercise.
YEARLY REcEwrs.—During the year ending January
5, 1846, the land revenues of the Crown amounted to
120,000/.; the monies arising from the sales of Crown
land amounted to 37,1551. 14s. 2d.; and 6,9541. Os. 2d.

TEMPTATION AND ATONEMENT.—The new story
by Mrs. Gore, just published, under the title of "Temptation
and Atonement," will be generally acknowledged to be one
of the most touching, as well as picturesque, narratives that
have ever proceeded from her practised pen, and one likely
to make a powerful impression on all classes of readers. The
scene is laid in Sussex, and the interest of the plot is strictly
domestic, forming a striking contrast with the former produc-
tions of the same popular writer.

ETHER APPLIED TO VETERINARY SCIENCE.—The
vapour of sulphuric ether has, we hear, been employed at the
Royal Veterinary College, Camden-town, on a sheep and a
horse, with the most decided success. The first-named
animal was affected, and had been for many months, with an
incurable disease of the hock-joint. The pain was so severe
that the poor sheep was quite unable to put her foot to the
ground without much suffering. On being brought into the
theatre she was caused to inhale the vapour of ether through
a tube, and in about five minutes after it was evident that
she was under its influence. The leg was then amputated
by Mr. Symonds at the thigh without the slightest indica-
tion of any pain whatever. The operation occupied about
six minutes, and within twenty minutes from the commence-
ment the animal was removed from the theatre restored to
sensation aad consciousness. The horse was labouring
under a chronic affection of the near fore foot, commonly
known by the name of the " naricular disease," for which
the operation of " unnerving" is generally resorted to as a
remedy. This is necessarily a very painful operation, and
oftentimes the operator has to contend against the violent
struggles of the animal, particularly at the instant when the
division of the nerve is effected. In this case the ether
vapour was inhaled for about 13 minutes, when the horse
fell forwards, and the nerve on each side of the leg was
divided by Mr. Spooner without the least manifestation of
pain; a slight convulsive action of the limb, similar to that
which takes place when a nerve of a recently-killed animal
is cut through, alone giving indication of any sensation.
Within 23 minutes this animal also had perfectly recovered
from the effects of the ether. No restraint whatever was
resorted to to keep the animals in the required position for
these operations, and the inhaler employed was not one
invented for the purpose, but an apparatus temporarily
djusted by Mr. Morton until a more perfect one was
btained.

The good people of Paris will have it that Louis
Philippe has been cruelly taken in with respect to the Spanish
marriage. They have been all along convinced that the wily
monarch brought it about principally, if not solely for the
sake of the fortune of the young lady; and they now say
that he is moat disagreeably astonished to find that the
amount of the dot not 30,000.000 francs, as he had hoped and
believed, but only 30,000,000 Spanish reals, that is, about
three-fourths less than had been calculated upon. If this be
true, King Louis Philippe's mortification must be extreme;
for it is really no joke to get only 30,000/., when one had
counted on receiving 1,200,0001.—
