THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE. -
It is only a short time since this singularly efticaelOns article
of animal diet first made its appearance ; and alrea 1y its celebrity
is world-wide. It has been a subject of wonder, and has ply-tied
many a brain to explain how this has been brought about. Yet when
we are acquainted with a few facts concerning the food, our wonder
will cease. A few days since, a gentleman, wrote, stating that he
had a horse which was a " perfect bag`of bones." lie tried all kis is
of things to get the animal into cond tion, but in vain. He then
bought some of Thorley's food ; and he says the effect was wonder-
ful The horse rapidly grew fat, and in the course of a few weekt, bad
gained no lees than 12 stones. Again we find at the late grim" irel
shows at Birmingham, Cardiff, &c., the animals wt 0,11., u r:, ,t she
highest pr ze3, had been partly fed with Tlin icy's food for cattle.
Such facts speak Thr 1,1^n1,1, ca cud we are foiled to the conclu-
sion, tlilt Its c ay arises solely trom its own intrin3ic merits,
auS Cile gee tt demand for it can proceed alone from the good opinion
and testimov of those who have tried it. An parties interested in
horses and cattle will do well to apply to 77, Newgate-street,
London, for a pamphlet which Is sent post-free.

APPROPRI k.TION BILL.

Sir H. WILLOUGHBY asked when it was intended
to bring in the Appropriation Bill, and if it would be
printed ?

Mr. HAMILTON said it was intend:l to bring in
the Appropriation Bill this evening, and that it would
be printed.

Mr. T. DUNCOMBE asked the Secretary of State
for War, if he was aware that certain differences had
arisen between Col. the Earl of Wilton and Lieut.-Col.
Dickson, boll of the Second lower Hamlets Militia,
with reference to the affairs and discipline of that
regiment ; and, if it was true, that the constable
of the Tower had made au application to have Lieut.
Colonel ;Dickson's name, unless be would consent to
resign, removed from the Army List, without giving
that officer, after 33 years' service st home and abroad,
any opportunity of vindicating his conduct before a
proper military tribunal ?
General PEEL, after entering into the rules and re.
gulations for the government (.7f the mil tia, said that
Lord Combermere had forwarded to'him certain charges
preferred against Col. Dickson, but as be (Gen. Peel) did
not consider the evidence forwarded to him strictly
made out the charge against Col. Dickson, he had de-
cided on giving Col. Dickson an opportunity of vindi-
cating himself before a court of inquiry. (Hear, hear.)

THE OVERLAND ROUTE.
Mr. NICOLL asked the Secre'aty.of St.•te for
if the advantages of tile overland route as a meaas of
transport for her Majesty's troops, as described in the
recent report of the kelt ct committee, would induce the
Gaverninenk to fcr ward luidian reinforcements by that
rou e during the colder months of ths year, and as would
be consistent with the opinion given to that effect by the
military authorities in Egypt.
General PEEL said that in cases of emergency
he intended to send Indian ranforcements by the over-
land route.

at 2 o'clock, in which the galiaut general stated he was
too much indisposed to attend in his place this after-

TILIMES.

AN OLD-ESTABUSHED NUISANCE.—MrR. Collyer, a
woman about 35 years of age, who has been charged at
this office with being drunk and disorderly upwards of
250 times, and has been committed to prison on 30 or
40 diffirent occasions, was again brought up before Mr.
Selfe.

Pellow, a police-constable, No. 274 K, said the pri-
soner was drunk and disorderly yesterday, and sur-
rounded by a turbulent crowd.

The prisoner, who is the wife of a gentleman holding
a iucrative situation in one of tli,a docks, and who al.
lows her a very handsome stipend, said she would not
get drunk any more, a❑d if the magistrate overlooked
thia effenca, ehe would never appear before his worship
Mr. Selfe—So you said last week. You are a married
woman, and have a family, and yin have for many years
been a nuhance to the district.
The prisoner—l will take the pledge of sobriety this
day. _

Mr. Selfe—l am afraid you are an incorrigible drun-
kard, awl nevtr will keep scber. Yuu have been pert
20 times at least,

A gentleman in court—She has been here 300 times
in the cJur,e of the last 10 years.
Mr. Sife—l am speaking of my own experience for
two years only.
The prisoner made an earnest appral to be forgiven ;
and Mr. Selfe said be would give her one more chance,
and one only, and set her at liberty.

LOCAL.

The appearance of the weather from the 18th to
the 24th of May led us to expect the immediate
commencement of the rains. The atmospheric dis-
turbance tinned out to have been occasioned by a
hurricane wl ich occurred in the Bay of 13eng,i1 on
the 20th, the third in the course of six wt eks be-
twixt the Coromandel Coast and Burtnah, and be-
twixt the 11th and 22d parallels. All appearance
of rain, which is generally pouring in torrents a
week before this, had vanished. We have at pre.
sent fresh breezes, bright sunshine, and a few
scattered clouds, with scarcely so much as a shower
within the fortnight, not a drop within the past six
days. The lino of railway betwixt Khandalla and
Poona was opened for all kinds of traffic ou the
14th, Bombay and Poona being thus com.ected by
rail, with the exception of a temporary porterage
of seven miles at the Bhoree Ghaut, where it will
take two years to complete the tunnels. On this
occasion, like the original opening in April, 18';3,
in place of making it a day of demonstration and
festivity, everything was roue about so quietly
that it looked as if we felt ashamed in being caught
in a task so new and so chimerical as this of im-
proving the country. The traffic of last 'crock n
70 mile frame rtt must aifor..l 23,000/4 The
liailableshwur Hills have been deserted by Visitors
—the.. first burst of rain converts 71vulets into
livers or catarccts, and cuts off communication,
and so make strangers scamper in alarm. There are
still a great many residents at Matheran, the Go-
vernor and members of council amongst the rest,
the cloudy weather and showers which precede the
fall there amounting to about 28 inches in 60 day ,
being the pleasantest part of the year, and the rai'.
way being accesishle at all tinv.s. A subscription is
now on foot to pesent Col. Outram with a shield,
on which his principal. feats of arms for the -past 36
years—for throughout this time he has been
mostly in harness—is to be emblazoned. Th's,
along with the 500/. sword he received in 1843,
and the other sword just presented him by the
City of London, will form as rich a trophy of arms
as can well adorn a baronial hall, and not more
rich than it is honourably won.

On Thursday, the 10th instant, there was an
official trial trip on the railway from Bombay right
through. The pariy lelt the Bhoree Bunder
Station at 8 a.m., and were back again by 10 p.m.
To Poona out and back in 14 hours, with the loss
of four hours on the Ghaut porterage both ways,
and some time for the magnificent hospitalities of
Mr. Cursetjee Jamsetjee, must be something rather
striking, not
,only to natives, but to old Indians.
Fancy the illustrious Elpbinstone, who placed the
Deccan in our hands in 1819, still alive. Fancy
a lady amongst us, then a wife, dancing with
Colonel Wellesley on his way to extinguish the
Mahratta empire in 1803. Fancy it not yet twenty-
five years since the first road up the Ghaut was
(opened. Then fancy the whole traversed by loco-

THE CITY CHAZIIBRIaiIIN.

It was at first supposed that the election of a
new Chamberlain would not take place for some
weeks to come ; but the inconvenience arising from
the existence of a vacancy with regard to so impor-
tant an office is so great, that it has been judged
advisable to bring on the election al soon as pos-
sible.

With this view the Lord Mayor on Saturday
issued his precept to the various companies for a
Common Hall, "to be holden on Saturday, the
24th day of July instant, at 11 of the clock in the
fwenoon, for the election of a fit and able parson to
be Chamberlain of this city, for the remaining part
of the year, in the room of Sir John Key, Bart.,
deceased."

Late on Saturday night large posters were affixed
to the various announcement hoardings throughout
the City intimating that Mr. B. Scott is a candi-
date in real earnest for the vacant Charaberlainship.
It will be remembered that nearly five years since
Mr. Scott contended with its late possessor, Sir J.
Key, for this lucrative civic post, and that he was
defeated by a comparatively small majority, his
main ground of reliance upon the suffrages of the
electors b his long service iu the Chamberlain's
office, where he was for several years not only the
pri uc.pal clerk, but, in fact, the locum teite»s of the
Chamhei lain, A. Brown, Esq. No other candidate
has at present V2en publicly announced, but we
understand upon good authority that Mr. Alder-
man Copeland, M.P., of the war] of Biahopsgate,
and senior alilerman (with the exception of Sir P.
Laurie, Kt.), has consented to be put in nomina-
tion to represent the aldermanic " claim" to tilt

The following are the principal passages in the

the revr.r-ae has been maintained in its present paition.

He was out the whole of Friday night, and did not

in the most barbarous manner, and ultimate'y left
her on the floor in an ius?n,ib'e and bleeding state,
all the occupants dreading to interfere as his con-

j written in a more popular style, and bad published in a
less expensive form.
The writer has endeavoured to criticise in no exclu-
sive spirit ; to appreciate excellence of every kind. At
the same time he has wished to see with his own eyes,
and to write,
Nulling ad dictus j uraro in verba ma gis tri.
The first step towards understanding a man, seems 10
be to look at him front his own point of view ; and never
to condemn him, because he has not the merits of
another. To see no grandeur in Rubens, because his
flowing outline has nut the symmetry of Raffs,el, nor hie
liberal colour the depth and warmth of Titian—to find
fault with Gian Bellini, because be has not the freedom
or science of Michael Angeln---t3 despise even the
minute reproduction of Gerard Do 4-, because it has none
of the energy of Tintoretto—to carp at the dryness or
harshness of the Van Eycks, because they have neither
the euppieness nor softness of Andrea, the grace of.Cor•
reggio, nor the gloW c f Giorgione—to forget the wonder.
fal truth of Helhein, because his fac-simile portraits have
neither the romance of Titian nor the penetration of
Leonardo—to think, in short, little of one man, because
he has not the sant of another=-involves in the first
place a e)mplete loss of all the enjoyment that a wider
range of taste would give, and noreover displays an
absolute ignorance of the first principle of all excellence
and all originality—do your beet, and dare to ba your-

Traits and Stories of Ango-Indian Life. By
Lientenant•Calunel Addison. Smith, Elder,
and Co.

We have here a volume of tales and ske'ches, re-
lating some marvellous adventures and anecdotes of
life in the E .st. It is 'not; however, as might be
supposed from its title, in any way.connectedvirith
the incidents of the late rebellion, though some of
the tragedies are scarcely less horrible than those
committed by the rebellious sepoys. Many of the
sketches have lean previously published, but they
are now collected for the first time. The author
observes in the preface that to any one who has
not been in India some of the anecdotes will ap-
pear incredible, but that in Calcutta they will be
recognised as truths, as every incident he mentions
has really occurred. This assertion is necessary, as
to the English reader, many of the statements will
appear at least exaggerated, but they will delight
the lovers of the marvellous and the horrible, be-
sides providing entertainment, though in a mori
limited degree, for the reader who seeks to be
amused as well as startled.

Practical Through-routes. By an Englishman

abroad. Longman.
This is a very uscful and intelligible.little work,
intended for the benefit of English continental
tourists. It is arranged to accompany and connect
the tyrant of British travellers, " Murray's Hand-
books." It is clear and simple in its directions and
comprehensive in its scope, giving all neces-
sary particulars respecting the hotels, tha modes
of conveyarres' the authorised charges, and
general fares. The usual &tills respecting tha
objects of note in the vicinity of the different town?,
and all :imilar information is given. It forrns an
inva!uable assistant to the perplexed traveller, to
whom a journey through the mazes of Brad,haw
and Murray is sometimes the most formidable part
of his route.

On Photography.
_By Lake Price. Churchill,

-New Burlington-street.
This volume professes to be " a manual of pho-
tographic manipulation," and it offers to the stu-
dent or amateur phiftographer a clear and concise
account of the principles and practice of the art.
An introdualry sketch of tie discovery and pro-
gress of photography gives an interesting account
of the various improvements that have been made
in the process. Th producing agents, the requi-
site apparatus, manipulation, the treatment of
different subjects, the print'ng processes, and
chemicals, are all discus.,ed uuder different head!,
and treated of fully and clearly. The practical ar-
tist as well as the inexperienced amateur may find
some useful suggestions in this work.

NOTIONS ABOUT NOTTINGHAM.

Mr. 13radaeld's meeting will attain a deserved success.
The list of sport is promising enough, and it will be suf-
ficient to attract a largo number of speculators from all
parts of the country. My time is so occupied with pre
parations for the Goodwood meeting, that I shall ref(r
with the utmost brevity to the' probable results. Should
Zitella be "all right"—and bar absence from Liverpool
justifies the suspicion that there is something amiss—
she will will win the Robin Hood Stakes. Messrs.
Barber and Saxon's lot has been leniently treated for all
the handicaps in this locality. One of their nomina-
tions I shall couple with Erperance to bring off the
Nottinghamshire Stakes. A two-year-old—Artist or
Mrs. Stowe—may win the Stand Plate. For the Sher-
wood Handicap my fancy points to Prince of Orange
and Turret. For the Castle Plate I shall select Mas-
sacre and Trabuco. To-morrow I shall fully refer to
Wednesday's events, and will extend my remarks or
sport past and present.

A FRESH MAN.

NAV AL INT ELLMENCE.
London, England, 1858-07-19

THE CITY CHAMBERLAIN.

It was at fist supposed that the election of a
new Chamberlin wou:d not take place for some
weeks to come ; but the inconvenience'arising from
the existence of a vacancy with regard to so impor-
tant an office is 53 great, that it has been judged
advisable to bring on the election as soon as pos-
sib!p.

With this view the Lord Mayor on Saturday
issued his precept to the various companies for a
Common Hll, "to be holden on Saturday, the
24th day of July instant, at 11. of the clock in the
forenoon, for the election of a fit and able parson to
be Chamberlain of this city, for the remaining part
of the year, in the room 'of Sir John Key, Batt.,
dec cased.''

Late on Saturday night large posters were affixed
to the various announcement hoardings throughout
the City intimating that Mr. B. Scott iz a candi-
date in realearnest for the vacant Chamberlainship.
It will be remembered that nearly five years since
Mr. Scott contended with its late possessor, Sir J.
Key, for this lucrative civic post, and that he was
defeated by a comparatively small majority, his
main ground of reliance upon the suffrages of the
electors being his long service in the Chamberlain's
office, where he was for several years not only the
prir,c'pal clerk, but, in fact, the locum tenens of the
Chamhetla'n, A. Brown, Esq. No other candidate
has at present been publicly announced, but we
understand upon good authority that Mr. Alder-
man Copeland, M. P., of the wars of Bishopsgate,
and senior abierman (with the exception of Sir P.
Laurie, Kt.), bas consented to be put in nomina-
tion to represent the aldermanic " claim" to the
offs. e. Aldermln Sidney has been spoken of, but
that is rumour only, whilst Alderman Humphery,
who has also been named, has personally requested
our reporter to state that he has positively re-
fused to be put in nomination.
