THE LATE EARL OF KINORE.—His Lorch's

On his spirits, and sensibly injured his health. His death is

lie was of the most benevolent disposition. Great as his
charitable donations were known to be amongst the poor on
his own estates, and in the neighbourhood
where he tiveil,
we have reason to know that his stated charities formed but
a very small part of his benevolent exertions, which, gout the
secret manner he carefully observed in dispensing his bounty,
NV ill never be so fully known as the loss will be widely felt.
In the sports of the field he took great delight, and as a bold
and intrepid rider in the chase he had few equals ; but for
some -time hack the state rif his Lordship's health prevented
from taking part ii this manly exercise, and latterly
his pack was sold. His funeral will, agreeably to his wish,

Archangel instead of the. Ingermanland which was

ELSINORZ, JULY -13.—The Russian fleet was jollied
yesterday by a corvette, so that it now consists of
-13 ships. This afternoon the whole fleet fired a salute,
as we understand, on account of the fate of the Empress.
The fortress of Orenonburg and the guard-ship also
saluted, and • the latter had the Ruisian and Danish
flags. Many boats, with officers and men, came 3 ester-

- officers and cadets made excursions in the neighbour-
hood in carriages, on horseback, and on foot.

Imperial Family, on account of the illness of the Grand
Duchess Alexandria.
HANOVER, JULY 16.—We were alarmed yesterday
by a report that the town of Gedar was almost entirely
burnt to the ground: To-day, however, we learn that
there has been a great fire, which destroyed a church,
With a celebrated organ, and two houses. It is stated
that to the indefatigable and judicious exertions of ale

'CAUSES OF INCENDIARISM.
• (FROM CORRESPONDENT.)
NORWICH, JCLI 22.—The fact 1 gave you on Saturday is
working more practical mischief than any one unacquainted
with these districts can imagine.
1 enclose you a clause or two from agreements insisted
upon by some of the largest landowners, Wh4, too, and
when you consider that farms must be very scarce before
men would sign such agreements, YOU may infer that they
are put at a sufficient high rent, while the commutation of
tithe has increased that payment front fifteen to forty per
cent. in some parishes, over. who at it was under the old sys-
tem. Out of the operation of these things, the farmers—
the one or two hundred acres farmers especially—are driven
by stress of landlord and parson circumstances, and the com-
petition for a place to live in, to do all they canto screw the
labourers; and amongst other practices, that to which I
directed your attention is producing the greatest heart-
burning and

proportion to their opinion-of their wants, till now, it is-1
speak from knowledge 'of cases—become part of the calcula-
tion with them, in taking a farm, to reckon on a portion of
' the labour being done by single men at half the price of
married men . You don't want to be told that the landlords
reap the `)enefit, such as it is, of calculations and practices of
this kind.
Nor need you be told, that when men have signed agree-
, meats Of this kind, which first place themselves at the mercy
of an aristocratic landlord, and their wives, if they shall die
in the most degraded of all positions. All the affections
which in by-gone periods existed between the landlord and
farmer on, the one hand, and the farmer and labourers on the
other, are extinguished. You may depend upon it, much of
the heart-burning which lights the stacks and barns ori-
ginates in that fact of unequal payment ; and the
farmers- are driven by such agreements, and yearly leases
as these, to do and defend what was formerly wholly re-
pugnant to their habits and feelings.
See, from this, what folly-it is .for the landlords •in "yon
Ilonse” to vapour about the causes of fire as they do, when
they are themselves the primary cause ! There are plenty
of other causes all tending the same way, equally to be laid
at their door, but this is all to-day.

by general cheers. It was more than gratifying, he
said, to see such a man stooping from his high rank
to perform virtuous and humane actions, and to add
new nobility to the name of ASHLEY.
After some remarks from other Members, Lord
ASHLEY said, after the assurance from Sir JAME!,
GRAHAM that he would consider the subject next
session, he would withdraw his motion.

convenient course for reforming a bad law, or neu-
tralising the abuses of a good one. Yet Sir ROBERT
PEEL voted in its favour. The Duke of Rictunoein
and Lord GEORGE BENTINCK are both, with other
eminent persons, assumed to be under these informa-
tions to a stupendous extent. How the fact may be,
we do not pretend to know; but if it be as we have,
on public rumour, thus stated, we think that the Noble
Steward and Course-owner of Goodwood has a better
right to resist "qui tam" actions than Sir JAMES
GRAHAM, for his Grace was impartial enough, after
the ambulatory gaming establishments we have de-
scribed had paid for their standings, in the usual
manner, at Goodwood, to allow them to pursue their
vocations unmolested. This fact was brought under
Sir JAMES'S notice by and on behalf of the wandering
CROCKFORDS in question. But, not being " people
of mark or condition," he was inexorable. The
CaTo-like inspector of sealed letters dispersed this
wretched canaille in every direction ; but he voted for
suspending the "qui tam" actions against his Noble
and Honourable Friends. Among, as we understand,
those friends, and the defendants to those actions, is
Lord GEORGE BENTINCK. On the 10th instant this
nobleman, in the House of Commons, took part in a
debate on the Gambling Actions Suspension Bill, by
delivering himself' of a speech reflecting in no mea-
sured terms, it would appear, upon a Mr. RUSSELL, by
whom the actions referred to have been brought, and
another Mr. RUSSELL, his brother, a solicitor. Lord
GEORGE'S speech having been reported in the Morn-
ing Post and the Globe, the editors of those journals
were favoured, respectively, with a letter from the
solicitor—a Mr. J. T. RUSSELL. In this letter the
writer complains of the reported speech as containing
gross slanders upon his character. He thus addresses
the editor of the Morning Post:—"l tun Aider the
painful necessity of commencing an action against
you for libel, in order to maintain my position in so-
ciety, which I must inevitably forfeit if I permit so
atrocious a statement to pass unpunished. I only re-
gret the privileges of the House of Commons will not
allow me to punish Lord G. BENTINCK for his
attack upon me. I will thank you to forward me the
name of your solicitor to whom I can forward the writ.'
For our own part, we were so fortunate as not to have
admitted into our columns the offensive matter here
in question. We contented ourselves by remarking
in our Parliamentary Summary " that a debate of
such a kind ensued which might probably be inte-
resting to gamblers" (we forgot the " qui tam"
people). Under this impression we did not feel our-
selves called upon to give gratuitous diffusion to a
piece of squabbling in which we were quite assured
that our readers would feel no more interest than
ourselves. We have a great affection for sporting
in proper times and places—no toleration for its per-
sonal bickerings when these are obtruded upon the
business and attention of the Legislature. It
seems to us at least impertinent to the legiti-
mate objects of Parliament, for sporting Dukes,
or sporting Colonels, to solicit its interposition with
a view to protect private pecuniary interests of their
own, or their connexions. It seems to us to be in
Still worse taste for noble members of the Jockey
Club, who happen to be Members of the House of
Commons, to avail themselves of that position in order
to denounce private characters from that. place, by
reason of private injuries resulting to them from con-
nexions, whether voluntary or accidental, with the
individuals they inveigh against.
In these observations, however, it has not been our
object to express any opinion on the merits of Lord
GEORGE BENTINCK'S accusation, of which we know
nothing ; or of J. T. RUSSELeS complaint, of which
we know only what appears on the face of his letters.
Our desire is, once more, to direct attention to a
matter of far graver, public, and even constitutional
importance, than a miserable affair of crimination and
recrimination between a betting Lord and the
solicitor and kinsman of a plaintiff in certain
" qui tam" actions, of a character in them-
selves, and instituted for objects, sufficiently
notorious and appreciated. We wish the public to
observe what are the fruits of the anomalous, the scan-
dalous condition, in which the law of libel is left in con-
nexion with the question of Parliamentary privilege,
when the freedom of language claimed for, and con-
ceded to, every Member, at the opening of every
session, is transferred to the columns of our news-
papers, through the medium of those faithful daily
reports, which the wants of society, •the convenience
and information of the public, the wishes of the indi-
viduals composing the two chambers of Parliament,
and the habits and the will of the nation at
large, equally demand. This practice Parliament
has long virtually conceded and hourly recognises.
For its upright, able, and impartial exercise that Par-
liament holds all parties concerned in the business of
thus communicating their opinions and proceedings to
the world, severely and personally responsible. When,
therefore, Mr. J. T. RUSSELL talks of privileges of
the House of Commons, which prevent him from pun-
ishing Lord G. BENTINCK "for his attack upon him,"
and so turns round upon the " Globe "and "Pest" to
ask for the names of their solicitors, to receive on
their behalf process against them for giving
publicity to that attack, we want to know
why Parliament has not long ago interfered to
shield the public Press from any such iniquitous
liability ? If Lord GEORGE BENTINCK, or any other
MeieLer, cannot bring himself to see that there is
not much chivalry in denouncing men out of doors,
whilst they are ensconsed themselves behind the safe
protection of Parliamentary privilege, Parliament
ought surely to save the connexions of the Press
from all the penalties attaching to the fair and faithful
exercise of their duty to it and to the public at large.
This is a short statement of the grievance and the
remedy. To visit such a discharge of such a duty
with pecuniary or other penalties, is to give a pre-
mium to the abuse of a most important privilege
Our readers will of course have remarked the re- within

Sir J. GRAIIAM, after stating that there were
grounds for believing that an attempt was to be made
on the life of General NAPIER on the QUEEN'S birth-
day, trusted Mr. DUNCOMBE would withdraw his
motion—if not, he should oppose it. The motion
was withdrawn.

Dr. BO` RI called the attention of the House to
the state of the quarantine laws, and moved a resolu-
tion carrying out his views, which was agreed to.
Mr. Ross moved that an address be presented to
her MAJESTY, praying for the removal of Mr.
O'Datscou. frpm the commission of the peace. The
motion was opposed by Sir J. GRAHAM, and nega-
tived, on a division, by a majority of 33.
Mr. DUNCOMBE moved that the evidence taken
before the Commissioners of Revenue Inquiry be
printed, which was agreed to, with the understanding
that the copies should be for Members only.
The other orders of the day being disposed of, the
House adjourned at One o'clock.

In the course of a debate on the Railways Bill last
night in the House of Commons, Mr. TLIORNELY,
on the sixth clause being proposed, observed that
he had no wish to interfere with railways which
refused to run any trains on the Sabbath, but he
thought that in cases in which companies ran first
and second-class trains on Sundays, they ought also
to be compelled to run third-class trains. To this
just and rational proposition Mr. GLADSTONE
emphatically replied, that " he, for one, would be
no party to compelling companies to run par-
ticular trains on the Lord's day. He was aware
of the difficulty of enforcing the observance of the
Lord's day by legislation, but he would never hold
out a bonus to a violation of the Lord's day. He
was aware that railroad Companies were compelled to
carry the mails on the Lord's day, but that was a
case of necessity. The respectable working man who
wished to change his place of abode, would rather
give up a working day and the wages of a working
man than travel on the Lord's day. The ob-
servance of the Lord's day was a great support to
religion in this country, and it was the chief
support to religion in Scotland." This passage
is remarkable, not only as being impregnated with
the true spirit of the Conventicle, but as conveying
a Cabinet Minister's notion of what constitutes re-
spectability among the working classes. The opera-
tive who would wish to be considered " respectable,"
must, according to Mr. GLADSTONE, entertain a pious
horror of travelling by railway on the " Lord's Day."
No matter how pressing the necessity may be for
his " changing his place of abode," he must abandon
all thoughts of Sabbatical locomotion, otherwise he
forfeits his claim to respectability. No working
man can be truly " respectable," in the Gladstonian
sense of the term, who is not prepared to sa-
crifice a day's wages in order that he may be
enabled to stay at home on the Sabbath, and travel
on some other day ! Truly it is sad twaddle, and
still worse, if possible, is the Right Hon. Gentle
man's remark, that the " chief support to religion in
Scotland" is to be found in the general disinclination
of the people to travel by railway on the Sabbath !
Heaven help the Scotch if their piety rests on no bet-
ter foundation than this ! But though Mr. GLAD
STONE enters a pious protest against the poor man tra-
velling on Sundays, we do not find that he so much
as whispers a remonstrance against the rich man
travelling on the same day. It is only against the
running of " particular trains on the Lord's Day"—
that is to say, the cheap trains, which are intended
for the accommodation of the working-classes—that
he inveighs in a strain of very superfluous and some-
what officious piety. The rich may travel as much
as they please on the Sabbath, but for the poor to
avail themselves of the same privilege is an abomina-
tion in the eyes of the Saints. There is something
very sickening in this one-sided Pharisaical cant. It
is not dictated by devotion but by hypocrisy, and
exhibits a disposition on the part of Mr. GLADSTONE
to confound the mere ceremonial observances of reli-
gion with the sterling thing itself. We had hoped
that the spirit of Andrew-Agnewism was long since
extinct in the House of Commons, but we now find it
revived in the august person of a Cabinet Minister.
As we have more than once observed, in all matters
relating to the observance of the Lord's-day, it
is far better that they should he left exclusively to the
good sense and religious feelings of the community.
Parliament has never interfered on the subject, and
never will interfere, except to do mischief. In the
present instance, had Mr. GrAnsTosiE's opposition to
Mr. MORN ELY'S amendment been successful, it would
have had no other effect than to put money into the
purses of the railway proprietors, by compelling all
poor people who might be forced from necessity
to travel on Sundays, to travel by second-class
instead of_ third-class trains ! And this op-
position to the just and sensible amendment j
was offered by the Right Hon. Gentleman ou the
plea of religion ! Fortunately, Mr. THORNE'. I car-
ried his point, and Mr. G LADSTONE, greatly no doubt
to the discomfiture of his pious sensibilities, was de-
feated by a majority of 34. In the course of the
evening, by way of diversifying the entertainment of
Hon. Member', Sir ROBERT PEEL read a brief and

We have intelligence from Madrid to the 15th.
The Gazette of that date publishes a decree relative
to the possession of arms by parties not regularly
authorised to have them. Those placed in that situa-
tion are ordered to deliver them up within a certain
time, under a penalty of 160 ducats and thirty days'
imprisonment. The armourers throughout the coun-
try are ordered to render in a monthly account of
their sales. The Government papers state that pre-
parations are still going on for an attack on Morocco,
but the prevailing opinion was, that the affair would
he settled without recourse to arms.

The Three per Cents. were done at 27, for sixty
days ; and the Fives at 20f, for cash.

" The Chamber of Deputies has, in fact, terminated
its deliberations. The session opened on the 28th of SUMMARY OF NEWS
December, 1843, and as the Chamber will not be
closed until the Peers shall have terminated their la-
bours (probably towards the commencement of the
ensuing month), it will have lasted nearly seven
months. During this interval the Chamber of De-
puties assembled 150 times. It was presided over
three times by M. LAFFITTE, the senior Member;
105 times by M. &ADZE; its President; and 4.5
times by MM. BIGNON, LEPELLETIER D'AULNA V,
DEBELLEYME, and ns SALVANDy. This session has
been the most laborious, and perhaps the most fruitful,
since 1830, with respect to the number and the im-
portance of the Bills passed, which amount to 37,
besides 66 private Bills and 21 public Bills intro-
duced, and upon which reports have been prepared.
The Chamber experienced serious losses during the
session by the death of ten Deputies. Three resigned,
and two were created Peers of France."

The Duke de Nemours left Paris on Sunday for St. Omer.
where is concentrated a portion of the troops which are to
take part in the military operations near Metz.
The Chamber of Deputies voted on Saturday the budget of
receipts by a majority of 209 against 39. The sessional
labours of that Assembly were thus brought to a close.
M. Dupoty, who was sentenced to imprisonment by the
Court of Peers for guilty knowledge of the attempt to murder
the Duke d'Atunale, arrived at Paris from Doullens on Satur-
day, in a carriage escorted by two gendarmes. He left in the
evening for Tours, whither the Government has allowed him
to be conveyed for the benefit of his health.
It is generally believed that M. Lacave Laplagne, the
Finance Minister, will not negotiate a loan this year. The
funds in consequence are very firm. On Sunday the Three
per Cents. were quoted at 82f. 20c.
I,etters from Barcelona state that the Queen, in consequence
of the benefit she has derived from the sea-bathing, wishes
to prolong her stay, but that General Narvaez considered it
right that she should return to the capital in the beginning
of August.
A letter from Trieste says that the Emperor of Austria is
expected in that city on the 26th of August, but there is no
truth in the report that the Pope is to be there to meet him.
MAW AND POLICE.
A man of the name of Lester was charged at Marylebone-
office with having travelled on the London and Birmingham
Railway a greater distance than that for which he had paid,
and for refusing to satisfy the demand made upon him for the
excess fare, thereby rendering himself amenable to a penalty
not exceeding 40s. for the offence. He was ordered to pay a
tine of 215., and in default of payment was committed for
eight days.
John Alves, the person charged with having fraudulently
obtained two promissory notes of 1,0001. each from Lord C.
Fitzroy, attended at Marlborough-street, to meet the further
proceedings in the case. Mr. Bodkin, who appeared for the
defence, said without giving any opinion, or going into any
investigation as to the guilt of the accused party, though his
belief was that the accused had committed no legal offence
he was ready, as his Learned Friend entertained a different
view of the law, to enter into recognisances to meet the
charge at the sessions. This arrangement was agreed to by
the other party. There is one main point in the defendant's
favour. A bill" in Chancery has been filed against him and
two others, and the third section of the above Act prohibits,
in such a case, any criminal proceedings.
John Tunnachtte, a respectable-looking young man, de
scribed as a smith, was finally examined at Queen-square ma
the charge of feloniously assaulting and wounding Sarah
Powel, a widow with two children. The accused has been in
custody for upwards of a month, in consequence of the dan-
gerous state of the complaining party, who has been unable
to leave the hospital. The prisoner, who made no defence,
but appeared much affected while the evidence of the wit-
nesses was being read over, was committed for trial at the

In the City, as elsewhere, much regret has been expressed
this morning at the apparent lukewarmness which is evinced
by Government in not having secured, instanter, the inven-
tion of Captain Warner. In a commercial point of view the
supremacy of the British Navy is now, as it always has been,
a consideration of vast importance, as aiding the mercantile
marine of Great Britain in periods of difficulty, wherever the
standard of the country floats. And how great would be the
inducements of foreign powers to keep peace with us, they
knowing that our ships of war are not only able by ordinary
courses to ride triumphant, but being backed with a power of
destruction which the invention of Captain Warner appears
to possess, all attempt at resistance must be quite out of the
question. Commercial men are, therefore most anxious that
this invention should not be allowed to slip into the hands of
a foreign Government.

FAEHIONS, NOVELTIES, THE
ARTS, &c.
What a grand and marvellous creation is this monster
City of London ! How vast —how populous—how
thoroughly beautiful—how inconceivably wealthy !
He who has not dwelt in it can form but a meagre
idea of its magnitude—he who has not seen it,
in verity, knows nothing. Look at its squares, its
places, its parks, its gardens—regard the residences of
its nobility—imposing, lofty, dignified, and countless.
Is it not almost incredible that each of these stately,
mansions is inhabited by some mighty lord or rich com-
moner, who there maintains an establishment and up-
holds a state equal in splendour to the princes of other
lands ? Examine its public buildings, its churches, its
monuments, its commercial wed benevolent institutions.
Is not their number astounding—and, though occa-
sionally irregular, plain, or bizarre in their con-
struction, are they not, as a whole, massive and
magnificent ? But walk through its leading thorough-
fares—the streets devoted to its traffic—its manufactures
—its varied, and indeed universal trade. There you
see the real London. There you see that industrious,
rich, and powerful community which Napoleon sarcasti-
cally but yet truly designated " the nation of shop-
keepers." What would he call them now, when the
luxury and extent of their establishments have increased
since his time a hundred-fold ? Yes, these are
London shopkeepers ; but such shopkeepers ! Shop-
keepers, whose magazines are palaces —whose de-
pendents are numerous as those of many princes,
whose expenditures are greater than those of many
Royal exchequers. Turn to the right and to the left of
each broad and beautiful street, and note those almost
interminable lines of splendid warehouses glittering with
gold and plate glass, and filled with all the costly
products of the world. Does not such a combination of
profusion, order, decoration, and taste, devoted to the
purposes of commerce, almost surpass credence ?
But let us go a little into details, and take a few of
those princely magazines as illustrations. We are
in Oxford-street. We stand before that fashionable
and surprisingly rich emporium kept by Messrs.
Williams and Sowerby. How handsome is the exte-
rior! What an infinite variety of silks, of velvets, of
shawls, of laces are here displayed. See those coroneted
carriages that throng the entrance. In one may be re-
cognised a leader of haut ton, coming to select something
unique in which to " witch the world" at the next Al-
mack's, or at one of the Duchess of Buccleuch's charming
fetes champetre. In another reclines a blooming debutante
of the season, endeavouring to decide whether a cerulean
blue or a bright oceanic green sets off to greater advantage
her unrivalled complexion. But the proprietor of the esta-
blishment politely invites us to enter. Here is a host of at-
tendants—here is an assortment of superb and exquisite
fabrics—here is a choice of style, of expense, of elegant
design, and supreme fashion. No wonder that it is
crowded by the votaries of taste. But let us pass on to
the rear, and inspect le salon pour le tissue de verre.
Marble columns, wide-spreading arches, fine arabesques,
a painted dome—what a receptacle for merchandise !
Yet the merchandise is well worthy of the place. The
loom in its magic power never before produced such a
fabric as that to which this saloon is dedicated. Th s
tissue de verre, this damask of woven glass, is wonder-
ful as it is gorgeous, is gorgeous as it is wonderful.
No tissue of ancient or modern times approaches
it in brilliancy and beauty. Those who have seen it in
the throne-room at St. James's Palace, and in her
Majesty's closet, know how magnificent it is in dra-
peries ; they only who visit the saloon can imagine
how admirably it is suited for a variety of purposes.
But we must take leave of this superb repository of rare
and elegant fabrics. Turning from the Circus into
' Regent-street, that beau ideal of a fashionable mart,
what chaste, and sober, and imposing magazine is this,
which at once attracts the eye, wandering amidst
so many attractions? It is the extensive warehouse
founded by Messrs. Jay,, and Co., upon the model of
the celebrated maisons de delta of Palk Nothing can be
conceived more tasteful, charming, and . touching, than
this assemblage of solemn blacks and mournful grays
reposing in the midst of all the flaunting finery of
busy and bustling life. Enter and review its contents ;
you will be astonished at the pleasing variety In which
every shade and kind of sorrow may here befittingly
clothe itself. Unforced to go from shop to shop, the
sad widow or the dolorous orphan here finds all that is
necessary to outwaKdly denote her inward woo. Dresses,
bonnets, caps, cloaks, gloves—in short, everything neces-
sary for her gloomy conditi9n—will she obtain in this
warehouse, without going a step beyond, or without
having ,to mix with the noisy and distracting crowd.
That beautiful texture, known as the sole de corbeau,
which has the novel quality of retaitling its colour
even against sea water, is one of the invaluable articles
to be had in this most extensive and accommodating
" general mourning warehouse," which is patro-
nised by the Queen Dowager and the haute
noblesse. Promenading down this delightful Regent..

Much interest is shown in the discussions which take
place in Parliament with respect to the Joint-Stock Bank
Bill, and the Railways Bill. As respects the latter there is
undoubtedly a feeling that more stringent clauses ought to
have been introduced, for the purpose of checking the mono-
poly now possessed by the large companies, by which prices
for conveyance are kept up for the middle and lower classes.
The alterations in the Joint-Stock Bank Regulation Bill, as
yet made, have reference principally to the details, excepting
that which concedes the right of such establishments, within
sixty miles of London, to sue, or be sued, by an authorised
officer to be appointed.
A slight degree of apprehension has existed in some circles
of the City that. the policy adopted by the French Govern-

Government and that of Louis Philippe, and therefore the
declaration of the Premier last night that the naval establish-
ment in the Mediterranean was sufficient to meet any emer-
gency, has given satisfaction, the more so, as the French. Go-
vernment has, it appears, pledged itself not to extend its con-
quests in the direction referred to.

rile annual meeting of the Commercial Bank of London
was held at their premises in Moorgate-street, on Monday,
when Mr. Cutbill, the Secretary, read the report, from which
it appeared that the bank was proceeding prosperously. After
paying of current expenses, and making provision for bad
and doubtful debts, the net profits of the bank for the past
year amounted to 6,3031. 7s. I ld., which enabled the direc-
tors to declare a dividend of five per cent., free of income-
tax, leaving a balance of 2,303/. 7s. Ild.
In consequence of the recent decision of Lord Chief Justice
Tindal, that lodgers,paying a yearly rent of 101. were enti-
tled under the Reform Act to the privilege of voting at elec-
tions, there is every probability that the constituencies of the
metropolitan boroughs will this year be greatly increased. In
the Tower Hamlets about 1,000 claims have been sent in to
the overseers ; in the Ward of Cripplegat.e notices have been
served for 700 ; and in the borough of Lambeth there are no
fewer than 1,000 new claimants, the great majority of whom
are lodgers.
Great preparations are going on at Southampton for the
meeting of the Royal Agricultural Society on Wednesday.
Agriculturists from Scotland and Ireland, and agricultural
commissioners from France, Germany, Belgium, Prussia,
Russia, and even from the United States of America, are also
expected ; and from present appearances, it is likely that in
its powers of attraction the present show will by no means
fall short of its predecessors.
