clearing the village the cavalcade passed on to the
Bridge which crosses the creek that divides the Tay
• frotn its parent source, or, as Burfis described it, "the
bridge over the new born stream." In the centre of
this bridge her Majesty halted for several minutes,
surveying the magnificent scene to the : westward,
where Loch Tay forms the glassy plain between the
opposite and wooded hills. Ilere the barges of The
Noble Marquis were floating gracefully on the
From this point the Royal party drove for a mile b
the side of the Lake on an avenue made expressly in
anticipation of this visit ; they then entered the road
leading to Killin, and returned to Taymouth at half-
past six o'clock by the- north approach, .having thulS
.made a considerable circuit. over the property of the.
Noble Marquis. No sooner had her Majesty alighted
than . the 'weather which had been fair, though not
clear for an hour or two previously, again broke. In
the evening Mr. Wilson, the celebrated vocalist, who
had been engaged expressly for the occasion, sung at,
her Majesty's request, "Farewell to Lochaber,"
." The Lass o' Gowrie," "The Flowers o' the Forest,"
" Wae's me for Prince Charlie," " Pibroch- o' Donuil
Dhu," and " Cam ye by Athol," with all of which
her Majesty was pleased to express herself highly
gratified. •

The boating excursion is to take place to-morrow
(Friday), commencing at an early hour, probably
eight o clock, but the officers who are to conduct the
barges, and their men, are ordered to be at their sta-
tions at six o'clock in the morning. In the evening,
a grand ball is to take place at the Castle, for which a
band of instrumental performers from Edinburgh,
under the direction of Mr. Dewar, have arrived.
It is fixed, that her Majesty will leave this at an
early hour on Saturday for Drummond Castle, and by
the route already announced. We have learned, that
both the Queen and the Prince have expressed their
regret that their sojourn must necessarily be so brief
at a Castle which has so many charms.

FRIDAY, Six O'CLOCK, A.M.—This is fortunately
a beautiful morning for her Majesty's excursion. The
people are already assembling around the boats, and
the vicinity of the pier, where her Majesty is to
embark.

BENIO WSK I'S PHRENOTYPICS.
MEETING OF MECHANICS.
A public meeting of the friends and members of
the Mechanics' Institution, Southampton-buildings,
convened by the Committee of that Institution, was
held last week in their elegant and commodious
theatre, for the purpose of making known the result
of the experience of several members of the Com-
mittee and others as to the utility of the new system of
artificial memory, invented by the Polish exile, Major
Beniou ski, and by him designated " Phrenotypics."
The theatre was completely crowded, and the I
spacious gallery was filled with ladies, who appeared
to take great interest in the proceedings. The Chair-
man said that the object of the meeting was to con-
vince the members of the Institution, and the public
generally, by absolute experiment, of the great utility
and extraordinary powers of the Major's phrenoty-
pies. Those who had witnessed the learned gentle-
man's exhibitions of his own mnemonical powers, could
have had only one feeling of wonder and admiration,
but much doubt existed as to the possibility of similar
powers being communicated to others by means of his
system or any other. To put this to the test, some of
the Committee and others formed a class, and took a
course of six lectures from Major Beniowski, with the
result of which they were much gratified ; and one
of them had founded in the institution a class of
twenty, whose progress removed all doubts as to the
efficiency of phrenotypics. After the Chairman's ad-
dress, several members came upon the platform to
submit themselves to public examination as to their
mnemonical attainments. To one the heads of a
speech were dictated, and he repeated them in the or-
der dictated, and also backwards, after two or three
minutes' consideration. This experiment was much ap-
plauded. The other pupils repeated, in any order, the
chronology ofthe "London Encyclopaedia," giving the
facts from the dates, or the dates from the facts, with
little hesitation—the result of a power acquired in
six lessons. One gentleman, who had received but
four lessons, repeated the whole table of Chemical
Equivalents without error, or even hesitation !—a
work ordinarily of months of exclusive study, in
which, even then, it is rarely mastered with certainty.
His and Beniowski's repetition of the whole table
of Logarithms, in any order required, may be
looked upon as unsurpassed in all the records of
mnemonical feats. A gentleman, who said he had
had but little time to make a practical application of
his lessons, repeated 500 Greek and Latin roots ; and
said that he had been able to apply the system to the

Towards the close of the proceedings a Mr.
Grogcan, *ember of the Committee, addressed the
meeting in terms of glowing eulogy of the system.
He had tried it with his own children, and found
that they made more progress in their studies in one
hour than they would at school in weeks. If any one
who heard him was unable to raise the money for ac-
quiring the system, he would advise him to pawn his
coat for the purpose.—(Laughter and applause )
.:The speeches and examination elicited very great
applause throughout.

DONCASTER, SUNDAY AFTERNOON, FOUR O'CLOCK,—
Scott's horses arrived this morning ; the lot headed by
Attila, were ten in number—viz., Attila, Master Tho Mas,
The Artful Dodger, The Ladye of Silverkeld Well, Wil-

All-Fours. Mr. Wrefurd's Monimia colt, does
not run for the Champagne Stakes, but will
be kept for the 500 Soy. Stakes, for which Napier appears
Jikuly to be his only opponent. The betting hitherto
has been very dull, and has turned chiefly on the fa-

(RECEIVED THIS MORNING.)
DONCASTER, SUNDAY NICHT, 10 O'CLOCK.—The St.
Leger betting, without being by any means so brisk as
we have known it at this period, has, in the course of the
two or three days that the Rooms have been opened,
undergone several fluctuations. On Friday evening, and
again on Saturday
morning, 3 to I was laid against
Attila; in all to nearly 500/., but the offers to invest
told" so effectually on the quotations, that by midnight
2 to 1 was taken freely. Policy rose to 10 to 1, and Fire-
, away to 8 to 1, taken; Eboracum receded several points,
and Master Thomas was backed at 33- and 40 to 1.
Great anxiety was evinced for the
arrival of Scott's
string from Pigburn, and it was increased iu some quar-
ters by a rumour that Attila would notaccompany it, but
would. be vanned in on the morning of the race. Between
twelve and one o'clock, however, the lot made its appear-
ance, headed by All Fours, .Attila second, with eight
ethers in their wake, viz., The Artful Dodger, Master
Tho Mas, the Ladye of Silverkeld Well, William le
Gros (all Legerites), The Caster for the Cham-
pagne Stakes, Napier for the Municipal Stakes,
Amienne for the Two Year Old Produce, and
Baronet. The numbers fell short by five or six of
what had been expected. The appearance of Attila had
an immediate effect on the odds ; nor, in fact, beyond
bets against Master Thomas at 30, 25, and lastly 20 to 1,
to a large amount, and the advance of the Agreeable colt
to 10 to 1, was anything of consequence done until night.
The Attila party then came out in greater strength than
ever, insomuch, that at eleven o'clock, at which hour our
parcel was made up, no one could offer 6 tos on the field '
with impunity. Cabrera, who met with a slight accident
on his journey and was bled, but was sufficiently re-
covered to show this morning; went back to 25 to 1 ;
the same odds were offered against Seahorse, in
consequence of a declaration by Colonel Peel that his
horse " was a little off, and would not start for the
Yorkshire Stakes ;" ergo, as many who had backed him
reasoned, that his chance was out for the St. Leger.
The following were the general prices at the hour
mentioned above :

ST. LEGER

10 to 1 agst Agreeable colt
10 to 1 agst Fireaway

Palladium does not rnn. John Day, jun., was engaged
t) ride Fireaway, but on Mr. Ferguson stating to him
that he had made up his mind no one should know who
rode until within two minutes of saddling, and that "he
must not be surprised at being taken off his back on the
course," he very properly declined having anything to
do with him.

PORTUGUESE WINE TRADE.

LISBON, SEPT. 5.—A measure of great importance
is one pr'esented by the Special Committee of the
Chamber on wines signed by the chairman, R. F.
Magalhaes, and all the other members of the Com-
mittee. This measure has been debated two days,
and passed "in • generality", on Saturday. The
object is to continue the Douro Wine. Company, and.
endow it with a sufficient revenue to enable it to
discharge-the functions assigned to it, giving it con-
siderable control over the wine trade, but no
exclusive monopoly of brandy as it had before. The
Company is to furnish the Government each year
with an exact statement of the, quantity and quality
of wines produced in each year, according to its best
information, in the Douro districts, and the Govern-
ment will then determine the quantity of wine, ap-
proved as of first quality, which may be exported to
European ports within that year, diminishing or in-
creasing the quantity according to the state of the
deposits, and the wants of trade.
The Company to divide the quantity of wine ex-
portable to Europe as of first quality among the
farmers, in proportion to the quantity approved of
their produce. An annual fair to be held at Regoa
in the beginning of February, when the purchasers
of wines will manifest all that they have brought for
exportation ; the farmers manifesting the remaining
unsold stock which they reserve for exportation, and
receiving certificates (" guias") of the same.
A general examination to be made in all the de-
posits of wine destined for exportation, by a Commis-
sion of four persons, respectively named by the Cor-
poration of Regoa, the Commercial Association of
Oporto, the Douro Wine Company, and the Oporto
Custom-house, and certificates to be given of the
quality of, the stock, which will supersede all certifi-
cates now existing—this examination to be repeated
every year ; the expenses to be paid by the Company.
The Company to be obliged, to purchase from the
Douro farmers such wines of second and third qua-
lity as the latter may be disposed to sell them, at the
fixed price of 16 milreis per pipe of wine of second
quality, and 12 milreis per pipe of wine of third qua-
lity, commencing from the fair of 1843, and paying
for them by instalments of two, four, and six months.
If any adulteration of the wine be proved, the obliga-
tion of the Company to cease ; but if a dispute arise
between the Company and the farmer, the wine to be
reduced to brandy at the cost of the Company, and
paid for at the rate of 100 milreis per pipe of spirit
of 10 degrees of Tessa, if the wine were of second, and
80 milreis if of the third quality.
The Company to be obliged to continue its trade in
wine both abroad and for home consumption, without
any privilege or distinction over the merchants. It
will send samples to the principal marketa of Europe,
the English colonies, &c., and have a deposit in Rio
de Janeiro, for sale both by wholesale and retail ; and
may be called on by the Government to establish the
same in any other foreign countries. The Company is
charged with preventing the adulteration of the wines
exported from Oporto.
To compensate the Company for these various
charges and obligations, it is to be endowed with the
sum of 1,200 rein (ss. 6d.) on each pipe of wine con-
sumed in Oporto and Villa Nova de Gaia, and six mil-
reis (1/. 75.) on each pipe of wine exported from
Oporto to European ports; these sums being deducted
from the existing duties. The Government guarantees
the Company a revenue of 150 contos per annum,
under these heads, the Oporto Custom-house to make
up any deficiency that may may arise.
The Company to increase its funds by new shares,
or by loans, at its discretion ; and any shares or inte-
rest that foreigners may hold in it to be guaranteed
both in peace and in war. The shares, &c., to enjoy
the same privileges and exemptions as those of the
Bank of Lisbon and Board of Public Credit.

The Company may divide 8 per cent. per annum
amongst its shareholders, arid any surplus to form a
reserved fund.

The Company to prove to the Government that it
has funds sufficient to fulfil the obligations imposed
upon it, and to present its regulations for approval of
the Government; and if this be not done within
two months, the Government is charged to organise
an association of capitalists to carry the same object
into effect.

Other articles provide for the winding up of the
affairs of the Company when its duration, as fixed by
the law of 1838, will expire ; after paying off loans,
shares, &c., with interest, the residue to be applied by
the Government to making and repairing roads, and
other means of communication. Baron Tojal, having
succeeded in obtaining the necessary sum from the
