ANTI-LEAGUE MEETING in BUCK-
INGHA3ISHIRE.
Shortly after three &Ade on Wednesday afternoon las', a
meeting-of about 200 tenant: farmers was held at the Swan
Hotel, Newport Pagnell, for the purpose of forming an asso-
ciation for the protection of agriculture.
111 r. R. C.; ILEAVF,S, of Haveisham, was called to the (:!hair,
and said that he thought the farmers had remained quiet muck
too long, and had thereby, given an opportunil to their ene-
mies to acquire a rosition .in the country which they nper
wild have attained had they been vigorously appoisd. If they
were to have free-trade, let it be in everything—in tea, coffee,
mine, &C.:, and not in agrihiltural pr, duce alone. The agricul-
tural interest was the most important in the country; producing
as it did-800,000,000/. per annum, whilst manufactures only
3ieleed 1-73,000,0001., of which 126,000,800/. found a market
at home: Again—the number of persona employed in agricul-
ture above t a rusty years of age was 2,470,411, and only 710,551
in manufactures. Looking at those statements, would they allow
themselves to be trampled under foot by the League ? Ile was
sere they would,not, for they would unite heart and hand, and
opeose tha'; dangerous combivati.n.
Resolutions to the following
_effect were then moved, and
carried unanimously
" meeting participates in the now a!rnoat universal
feeling of-abhorrence excited by the false and insidious state-
ments put forth by the Anti-Corn-law League, with a view •co
obtain free trade in corn, but to preserve the protection en-
juyed by the manufacturers.
" That the protection now given to agriculture is but an in-
adequate equivalent for the burdens imposed upon land.
" That this meeting do form itself into an association for the
purpose of opposing the proceedings of the Anti. Coro-law
League, and for securing to the farmers of Buckinghamshire
that fair share of protection to which they are entitled."
.Several exci Rent speeches were delivered ; and, they a Cora•
mittee bad been appointed, the meeting separated. •
A considerable sum was subscribed in the room, and it Ives
estimated that the subscription for the County would-amount to
several thousand pounds.

but in vain ; the unfertunate gentleman expired on Saturday

LATE REPAIRS AT RIPON CATIIEDRAL.TIIO
venerable cathedral at Ripon has, during the last two years,
undergone several refairs. The south-west tower has bed its

the nails tied together s ith large ircn bars, thus rendering it
more fit to sustain the peal of baba which hang therein. The
apex of the middle con-Tartu:Ent 6f the •west front, dovsn to the
