LONDON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1845.

The death of Earl SPENCER, better known as the
good and honest Lord ALTHOEP, apart from his private
worth and consistent political conduct, can excite no in-
terest throughout the country. His relatives, however,
and personal friends, cannot fail to lament the loss of
one so upright and fair in his dealings, and so calcu-
lated, by his kind manner, honesty of purpose, and un-
assuming conduct. to make a favourable impression on
all who came within the circle of his acquaintance. The
time was, too, when the people of the United Kingdom
would have lamented his death as a great public calamity,
and many would have regarded with despair the progress
of that great measure of Parliamentary Reform which ex-
cited such universal interest, and of which Lord ALTHOBP
was thr, great champion. Earl GREY, and Lord Josh
RUSSELL, and the Earl of DURHAM, were, perhaps, more
active agents in constructing the plan, but the great--the
difficult, and peculiarly delicate task of carrying it through
the House of Commons, and bringing it to a successful
issue, fell to the lot of the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer, and nobly did he perform hie duty. His personal
character, his position in society, and consistency were
all that could be desired. The most rabid Tory could
find no fault with the leader of the Treasury bench and
the majority of the representatives of the people. His
integrity was above suspicion, his manner was of the
most affable and conciliatory kind, his temper was
never ruffled; no violent attacks from the most
sarcastic of the boroughmongers--the most un-
scrupulous of that faction, who were to be stripped
of their unjust privileges; could disturb the

. Mentor of Health, by Dr. Tissot, is one of the most valuable
an tractive little works on the subject of disease, resulting from
indi ion, &c. ever perused. It contains plain and simple descrip-
tions of the anatomy and physiology of the organs liable to be affected
by such diseases, and every information to guide the unwary and
inexperienced from the temptations to which they are exposed. To
those requiring a ' Mentor,' we most strongly recommend this work
and it is well worth the perusal of those who are so fortunate as not
to need its advice."—London Mercantile Journal.

MASTERS OF THE ROYAL NAVIN—It is the inten-
tion of that gallant and meritorious class of officers, the
masters in the Royal Navy, to petition the Lords of the Ad-
miralty for a complete removal of the barrier between them
and promotion, which they have endured so long with such
exemplary patience. These officers are thorough practical
seamen and skilful navigators, and to amalgamate them with
the executive branch of the navy, instead of continuing
them as a separate and anomalous class, would tend very
materially to benefit the service, taking it either as a whole
or in detail. The petition lies for signature at the office of
the United Service Gazette.

The Directors have the satisfaction to inform their Shareholders
that arrangements have been concluded with the Norfolk Company
for an extension of the line from Wisbeach, via Downham Market,
to Brandon, thus completing an independent line of communication
from Yarmouth and Norwich to Nottingham and the manufacturing
districts, and securing by the alliance the passing of the traffic over
the entire portion of the Grand Union and Extension Line referred
to. The distance between Nottingham and Yarmouth by the pro-
posed extension will be as short as by the Lynn and Derehain and
Lynn and Ely lines, while the traffic to and from the north, from the
central, west, and south parts of Norfolk, the north of Cambridge-
shire, and the counties of Suffolk and Essex, will be secured for the
united undertaking.
The Extension Line will be made by the two Companies jointly,
and the shares will be apportioned amongst the respective share-
holders of each.
It is intended that the Norfolk and Grand Union Companies should
guarantee four per cent dividend, with a division of profits to the
shareholders of the new line.
The direction will consist of an equal number of gentlemen from
the Norfolk and Grand Union boards, and Mr. Robert Stephenson
will co-operate with Mr. Vignoles as engineer of the line.
Further particulars will be shortly advertised.

the powerful influence of Court favour. It has long been a very
scarce book, and in great request among literary collectors.

Lei'd Portman,President of the Royal Agricultural Society,
and -Williath rierapath, Esq., the eminent analytical chemist
of this city, in reference to seed potatoes for 1846. His Lord-
ship, in a subsequent letter, requests that the correspondence
may be made public, and it has been handed to us by Mr.
Herapath for that purpose. The subject is of vital import-
ance, and is worthy of the deepest consideration :
" Bryanston, Sept. 13, 1845.
" Sir,—l observe in the newspapers that you have directed
your attention to the potato disease, and have advised as to
the use of starch, &c. As I o..v.ik specially bound, during
this year of my holding the cftlee Or President of the Royal
Agricultural Society of iiAi:gland, to promote inquiry and to,
notify observations, eA subjects relative to the produce of '.ne
soil, I trouble you with this letter, and ask if any D'.etbod
has..ocourred to you by which the potato may be "preserved
for the planting of 1846 ? I have found that Pot.atoes, appa-
rently sound and free from disease thowli.
den which 1:., `as been partially tliwasecr . ..1 a field or gar-
have, after being
stored a‘,7fly, shown sigl ofthe dises.7.Je and rotted off; and I
fear that the greatest quantities of potatoes will thus perish,
and continue the distress. •
of the poor to another season. I
have directed some pots to be stored in slaked lime, in
the hope that iii"..ty preserve them,. but have, of course, yet
had no time to, judge of the effect. I, therefore, ask for your
opinion; IS one of our most eminent chemists, upon this point,
awl would ask leave to -make known your reply, if you are
able to offer an opinion sufficiently explicit to be useful.

HAMMERSMITH:

LIABILITY OF KANJRFT TO TOLL.—Henry Clarke, toll-
' collector at the Notting-hill gate, was summoned before Mr.
T. Paynter, the sitting magistrate, for having on the 16th
inst. unlawfully demanded and taken toll to the amount of
2s. 3d. for a waggon and two carts laden with manure, the
same being exempted from toll, and the exemption claimed.
Mr. George Wood, a farmer at Hanger-hill, Ealing, with
James Willis, his bailiff, were present to support the summons.
Joshua Day deposed that he was a carter in the employ of
Mr. Wood. On the 16th inst. he was with a waggon drawn
by three horses, and two carts, each drawn by two horses,
belonging to his master, and laden with brick rubbish, which
they were bringing from town. When they came to Not-
ting-hill gate the defendant stopped them and demanded the

toll. Witness asked him if he demanded toll for manure?
when the defendant said it did not signify what was going to
be done with it, he should demand the toll, and he must have
it. Witness thin paid him 2s. 3d.
By Mr. PAYNTER—Witness got the rubbish from the ruins
of Raggett's Hotel, Dover-street, and saw it shot on the land
for manure.

The defendant, in answer to the charge, pleaded, first, that
the exemption was not claimed, as required by the Act of Par-
liament; secondly, that it was not all rubbish, there being
bricks amongst it, which might be used for other purposes;
and thirdly, that part of what was brought down on the pre-
vious day was still in the waggon in Mr. Wood's yard.
Mr. Wood's bailiff said the bricks when broken with a
hammer were as useful for manure as mortar, and with re-
gard to the waggon, the ground was yet too wet for it to be
drawn upon it.
Mr. PAYNTER, having examined the Act of Parliament,
decided that rubbish for manure is exempt from toll, but the
exemption must be claimed on passing through. As the
proof was not clear that the exemption was claimed, he
would not convict, but would advise the defendant to return
the toll and pay the costs, which he did.
London, England, 1845-09-26

form a junction with the great Western Railway of Ireland, proceed-
ing by Frankford to Parsonstown, and from thence to, and termi-
nating at or near, Portunana-bridge, in the county of Tipperary. The
line will traverse a rich and populous country, and by its junction
wills the Great Southern and Western, and the Dublin and Galway
Railways, complete a chain of direct lines of railway between the
metropolis and Ireland, and the river Shannon ; and afford the ad-
vantages of the improved system of intercommunication to au exten-
sive district untouched by any existing or other projected railway.
This facility of intercommunication is imperatively demanded
to connect the populous towns of Frankford, Kennitty, Clonaslee,
Parsonstown, Banagher, Eyrecourt, Cloghan, Ferbane. Shinrone,
Poriumna, and Borriskane, with the City of Dublin on the east, and
the port of Galway on the west, which object will be effected by the
construction of a direct Railway, not exceeding thirty-five miles in
length, passing through a country free from engineering difficulties,
and avoiding competition with other lines.
The large amount of traffic at present existing between Dublin and
the towns in immediate connection with the proposed line, with the
great increase which must flow as a necessary consequence of the
completion of the work, ensuring a highly remunerative return on
the capital required to be embarked.
A detailed prospectus will be issued on Tuesday. In the interim
application may be addressed to John Julien, Esq., Lower Mount-
street, Dublin ; to Alexander, M'Neil, Esq., stockbroker, Dublin ;
and to William Andrews, Esq., at the office of the Company, 41,
Moorgate-street, London.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

(Before the AESITA.NT-JUDGE and a Bench of Magia
trans.)
THE SPA-FIELDS' BURIAL-GROUND.

An indictment was preferred by Mr. Wakeling, on be-
half of the parochial authorities of Clerkenwell, against
the parties engaged in the perpetration of the outrages
of public decency at the Spa-fields' burial-ground, which
are at present exciting so much attention.
The grand jury returned a true bill against Rober,
Vinall, William Langford, Francis Green, William Chas
Bird, William Green ; Tom Smith, and Stephen Bishop
labourers, for opening the graves, removing the dead
bodies, destroying the coffins, and interring in the burial-
ground a greater number of deceased persons than the
place could decently contain, in ♦iolation of public
decency, and against the public health.
The trial, it is understood, will not take place this
session, which will have terminated probably before the
parties cau have surrendered in due course of law.
