appointed by the members at the present quarterly meet-
ing, are the Rev. Mr. Goodchild, Mr. Harding, and Mr.

The allotments of a first portion of the Roehampton
estate, the Hertford estate, and the Camberwell houses on
the 18th of July, and of the Felixstowe estate in Suffolk on
the 28th of August, have been eminently successful. The
sale of land for this year, on the society's estates gene-
rally, has been remarkably large.
The executive committee have under consideration save-
ral properties in counties to which the society's operations
have not yet been extended. The near approach of the
annual meeing, when a detailed account of the proceedings
of the past year will be submitted, readers it unnecessary

eighth year, but also on the excellent commencement of the
ninth year of the Conservative Land Society.

THE LATE VIOLENT GALES-S.HIP-

WRECKS 1N TILE BALTIC.

The terrible gale which visited the northern part of the
United Kingdom on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday
last, appears to have swept with equal fury the whole of
the coast of the north of Europe, and the havoc amongst
the shipping—especially in the Baltic, where the storm
seems to have spent its full force—has been truly awful.
As yet no full details have been received, bat the telegrams
which came to hand yesterday from Lloyd's agents at Riga,
Helsingborg, Skioe, Memel, Norden, and neighbouring
ports, furnished a most fearful list cf disasters, there being
upwards of 60 wrecks posted in the books during the day.
The loss of life and property has been very great, and it is
feared that the full extent of the mischief is yet to be
learnt.
