Five is termed signifer, or standard-bearer, because it
is nlacal in the middle of ten, with a host on each side.
It contains more than common excellency, because it
comprehends all things seen, felt, or understood. There
are, however, five deceivers ; small wisdom, weak virtue,
distorted will, turbulent affections, and unbridled reason.
Neither should we place, confidence in five things—
beauty, for it is uncertain; health, for it is frail ; life,
for it is short ; honours, for they are transitory ; and
piersure, for it is mixed with sorrow. There are five
gients mentioned in Scripture—Nephan, Rephaim, Ana-
kitn. Og, arid Geliah ; there are also five noticed by
nr.,fane writers—Mars, Tityus, is Litmus, Tamils, and
jAtlas. A horse should have five qualities borrowei from
five other animals—the speed of a hare, the eye4ight of
a fox, the appetite of a wolf, t'-ie sure-footedness ol an
ass. and the docility of a woman who loves her husband.
Six is in every respect full, perfect, and divine. Every
Larration should consist of six elements—the person,
cause, Waste time, matter, and the thing itself. There
are six drinks, some allowable, others objectionable ; the
diet for health, th© second for pleasure, the third for
sleep, the fourth for drunkenness, the fifth for Boise,
and the sixth for madness.
Seven is the number of perfection, because it contains
three and four, the triangle and the square, by whieli
all things are measured. There are seven stars, seven
colorrs, seven champions, seven churches,. seven hills,
seven sleepers, seven sisters But hold !—we can-
not attempt follow Ingpen in his lengthened illustra-
tions of this number : one sample must suffice. He says
a clown has seven properties; the height of two pig-
mies, the breadth of two bacon hogs, the presumption of
a giant, the power of a gnat, the wit of an ape, the man-
ners of a knave, and the features of a crab. In 1502
a volume was published at Leipsic, divided into seven
books, each book containing seven chapters, and
each chapter seven heads ; all in praise of the number
seven. The ancient prestige of this number still lingers
amongst us. An alleged reventh son of a seventh son
carries on a prosperous trade, as a curer of all diseases,
in the imme'-iate neighbourhood of Seven Dials, where
children are being daily trained, not for a seven years'
apprenticeship, but for a seven years' transportation.
The collective wisdom of the nation recognises barristers
of seven years' standing ; the income tax was imposed
for seven years at seven pence in the pound.
Eight is a solid number, being created from the dupli-
cation of four, as four is made from two. We trust it is
not the ease now ; but Ingpen tells us that in his time
there were eight things common at court—namely, ter-
rible lies, false intelligence, dishonest women, feigned
friendships, continual enmity, envenomed malice, foolish
words, and vain hopes. As a threefold cord is stronger
by being trebled, so in like manner nine possesses supe-
rior virtues than three. Ten is the number of all perfec-
tion, power, and virtue, within whose compass all others
are contained. Eleven is a wicked, unlucky number ;
for is it not the first which breaks out of the pale of the
whole ten commandments ? Twelve, on the contrary, is
a gracious, just, and fortunate number. Are there not
twelve apostles, and twelve signs of the zodiac
We have had enough of this nonsense, and must now
permit our author to fall back into his well merited ob-
livion. Nor should we be too severe upon him—there
are plenty of absurd books of our own day for our
descendants to laugh at for centuries to come. Let us
conclude, then, speaking of Ingpen in the very words he
uses when speaking of Dionysius the Areopagite :—"He
writeth many things at random, others he dreameth ;
the beet he writeth are but bare conjectures—childish,
frivolous, and paradoxical." So much then for the
"Secrets of Numbers."—Chambers' Journal.

eccordingiy, to one of the most unpleasant machineries
in the world was conjoined' the most vexatious principle
I can conceive, that of an inquisitorial investigation into
a man's private affairs, under a bill of pains and penal
d• e, leaving the farmer at the mercy of any common
spy and informer. (Hear, hear.) Let me tell the public
that farmers objected to that bill, not because they were
farmers, but because they were Englishmen—(cheere)—
and my belief is that if that bill had been carried it
would have occasioned so deep a disgust and so great a
spirit of revolt among those upon whom it was brought
to bear that, instead of advancing agricultural statistics,
it would have thrown them back for the next 20 years
to come. (Hear, hear.) I don't consider this as a party
question, and therefore I represented these views of the
subject (and, as I humbly think, not without effect) to
members on both sides of the house. I own it frankly—
whatever may be thought of the intelligence, or the want
of it, which prompted such a course—l did my best in
private to frustrate the passing of the bill, just as, if not
withdrawn, I would have done my best to defeat it in
public. (Hear, hear.) Now, let me respectfully submit
to you that, although that bill in itself was thus objec-
tionable, the principle of agricultural statistics is essen-
daily good, and with that same frankness with which I
always speak to my friends, I would tell you that it
would scarcely do for any class of the commuity at this
time of day to appear opposed to that spread of know-
ledge which is the characteristic of the 19th century.
Some bill or another is sure to be introduced again upon
this subject ; some bill or another is sure to be carried
through Parliament ; and I would, therefore, earnestly
advise farmers as a body, if a good and conciliatory mea•
sure be introduced, to give it their favourable attention.
I have described what is a bad bill ; permit me to give
my impression of what would be a good bill. In the first
place it must dispense altogether with the machinery of
the Poor Law Board, or of any board connected with
rates and taxes. It should emanate from the statis-
tical department of the Board of Trade, which is rover
a taxing department, and which would put itself into
communication with local agricultural societies, and with
farmers of influence and popularity in the different die-
tricts. Every farmer should have the option of making
his returns under sealed cover to the official department
of the Board of Trade, with Me closest privacy and in
the greatest confidence ; and, gentlemen, above all, the
bill should be entirely on the voluntary principle. There
should be no pains nor penalties. Farmers should be left
to make the returns willingly, or not make them at all.
Am I speaking here without experience? No. I am
guided in this by the best experience at our command.
There are two countries in which agricultural statistics
aro collected with great -clearness and great excellence.
There is Belgium. The system in that country is an en•
tirely voluntary one, and is under the control of the sta-
tistical department. Perhaps, however, the very beet
agricultural statistics to be found throughout all Europe
are obtained in Scotland. How do they act there ? They
act through the Highland Agricultural Society, which
puts itself into communication with the local agricultural

The CHAIRMAN—It is is now my pleasing duty to give you
the familiar toast of "Prosperity to the Herts Agricultu-
ral Society." I hear from all sides that you have had an
exceedingly good show to-day ; that although the exhi-
bition of stock has not been particularly numerous, it
has been exceedingly good of its kind, and that you have
had a more than ordinary display of farming implements.
I congratulate you. I could have wished that this toast
had been assigned to one who, having addressed you less
frequently upon the same subject, might have given to
his general remarks upon the utility of these societies the
attractions of novelty, or by one who, being a practical
agriculturist, might have offered to you sours valuable sug-
gestions on points of detail. -I am relieved, however, in
some degree from my apprehension of inability by the
speech just delivered by our distinguished guest, the Ame-
rican Minister, in which, in the true spirit of Americsn
expansion, he has travelled over a great deal upon which
I might have liked to address you, and has embraced
even th esentimeat of the toast I am about to propose. I
could have wished be bad gone on, and that, in his own elo-
quent way, be had taken the subject entirely to himself ;
but still, if it be true that "out of the abundance of the
heart the mouth speaketb," I ought to be in no want of
words, when I see before me so many of my friends and
neighbours, all united in that great object of progress
and improvement by which every department of industry
not only maintains its own rank in the various divisions
of society, but contributes to the national stock of intel-
ligence and wealth. (Cheers.) It is quite true, as Mr.
Dallas has implied in the course of his speech, that the
object of these societies is not merely that of bringing us
together in good fellowship and friendly communion. It
is true, also, that their benefits do not limit themselves
to a handful of successful competitors. Every time that
we meet we not only reward the skill of the husbandman
and the cattle breeder for the onrrent 3 ear, but we make
as it were, in the highway of
each meeting a milestone,
the national progress. (Cheers.) Every year some new
ideas are' communicated, some new invention or im-
provement is exhibited wbioh furnishes reflections fer
the year that follows ; and thus each year ought to find,
and does really find, us in advance of its predecessor. It
is true the farmers may not know the progress which
they. themselves make, and it is also true that we must

MID LOTHIAN.—The weather during the past week
has been changeable, and an occasional shower, with
high winds, have partially checked harvest operations.
The wind hag proved beneficial to the grain in stock,
bringing it into excellent condition for stacking, and on
most farms the harvest carts have been in full requisi-
t on, but there is as yet little of the grain secured. Cut-
ting in this neighbourhood is now well advanced, the
upland districts excepted, where on most farms reaping
bas not yet commenced. The reports of the crops are
various, but the general tone is that the cereals are un-
usually bulky. Wheat is unequal as to soundness of the
ear, but, as a whole, above an average. Barley, where
thrashing is being proceeded with, is disappointing ex-
pectation. Oats have cut up a very full crop, and must
be much about an average. The potato crop is now
more promising ; the blight appears not to be extending,
the haulms generally showing a vigorous growth.
EAST LOTHlAN.—Reaping has gone on for the last
eight days without interruption. In the lower part of
the county spring wheat and beans are the principal parts
of the crop which remain uncut. On some farms a com-
mencement has been made on these crops, and at the
close of this week in numerous cases reaping will be al-
together finished, Tbere has been a stiff breeze for the
last few days,
stacking. On Tuesday leading-in was general, and corn-
which has put the grain in good order for
stacks are again making their appearance round every
homestead. There has been more green shearing this
year than usual, the grain having got ripe before the
straw. Reapers have been plentiful, and the wage last
week was 10s. with food.
AYRSHIRE.—Despite the backward weather harvest
operations are progressing rapidly; and should the far-
mers now be favoured with a few dry days the greater
part of the crop will be cut down.
IL:WICK. —The weather has been very favourable for
harvest operations during the past week. There have been
occasionally slight showers in the morning, but these-al-
ways clear away, and we have fine days of breeze and
sunshine. Cutting and leading are going on at all hands,
and if the weather continues good the fields will soon b.)
cleared.

WRECK OP A BRIG ON THE GOODWIN SANDS WITH
Loss OF LlM—The loss of the brig Jessie Ann, Capt.
Muison, in ballast, on the Goodwin Sands, while on her
voyage from Dieppe to Shields, has been reported at
Lloyd's. The disaster is described as follows by the
captain :—" We sailed from Dieppe on the 21st instant,
the wind westerly, moderate. and increasing 9 p.m ,
made Dungeness Light. On the 22d, at about 1.30
a.m., made the South Foreland Light, wind W.S.W.,
blowing very hard, and the weather thick with rain ;
continued our caurse, steering E.N.E. until about 2 40
, when we made the Gull Light ; also the North
Sand Light, which latter bore N.E., a little northerly.
Did not heave the lead, but finding we were too far in,
hauled off ; and in so doing struck and • unshipped the
rudder ; beat heavily, and soon filled. Then endea-
voured to get the boats clear, but whilst so doing the
ship listed over on her broadside, and both boats were
washed off the deck, the sea beating heavily over us.
We lashed ourselves fast along the starboard quarter,
except the mate, who was washed overboard. We made
what signals we could for assistance, by burning a pitch
kettle, &e. About 8 a.m. the Ramsgate lifeboat, with
the harbour tug, came to us, and rescued us with con-
siderable difficulty, there being a very heavy sea beat-
ing over the vessel, the lifeboat filling repeatedly! We -
were lauded at liamsgate about 9 a.m.':

AMERICAN RAILWAYS.—The last American papers
give a statement, made up to the end of 1855, of the
extent and cost of the railways of the United States,
compared with those of Great Britain. The number of
miles of railway in America is 23,242, and the cost of
construction has averaged 7,1001. per mile. Frr this
country the total is put at 8,334 miles (reckoning 3,076
miles nf double track as 6,152), and the cost has been
36,000/. par mile. The people of the United States,
therefore, are congratulated on having obtained nearly
three times the extent of railway possessed by Great
Britain at little more than one half of our aggregate out-
lay. The difference in the durability and general cha-
racter of the roads, and also of the rolling stock, must,
however, bo taken into account.

complaint, to alleviate which he bad applied a host of
remedies, but the results were invariably unsuccessful.
The malady at length progressed so alarmingly that it
nearly prostrated Mr. Brookhall, when be was provi-
dentially advised to take Holloway's Pills, which he did
forthwith, and with such signal success that the distress-
ing symptoms immediately abated, and in a few days he
became hale, hearty, and completely cured.--Sold

THE HERRING FISHING.—At Berwick the season of
herring fishing has terminated. Upon the whole it has
been a fair one. The number of boats engaged in the
fishing has been equal to former reasons. The average
price obtained for the fish is 1/. per barrel. One boat,
we have been told, has realised 3001. ; one, if not two,
25e1. ; while several are up to 2001. Upon the whole
fleet of seventy boats the average stands at 1001., which,
under the circumstances, is very satisfactory.—Berwick

KELSO.—The fine weather we have experienced lately
has enabled tho farmers not only to cut down most of
their crops in this district, but also to secure a large
portion of them. The injury done by the recent rains
has been almost, if not altogether, neutralised by the
sharp winnowing breezes which have prevailed. All kinds
of grain are in the finest condition for stacking, and we
have no doubt, when passed throu tithe thrashing ma•
