of the glens, where the crop sometimes entirely fails,
there will be nothing seen but stubble in less than
three weeks, provided the weather continues in the
least degree favourable. Prom all the information
we have gathered, the grain crop will, upon the whole,
be rather more abundant and heavier than was at one
time anticipated.—Aberdeen Herald.
SouTu. D E YoN.--The genial showers which have
fallen have proved very beneficial to the turnip and
potatoe crops, and although they have somewhat im-
peded the progress of sowing barley, nearly the whole
of it is carried (as well as the wheat) in excellent con-
dition. There are a few fields of barley, on very high
situations, that are not as yet cut. WTasps have been
so numerous here this season, that many hives of bees
have been destroyed by. them. Plums are again in
abundance in Dittisham, this being the fourth conse-
cutive plum year with that place. —Devonport Tele-
graph.
The harvest in the neighbourhood of Wooler is
nearly completed, the crop is a good one, and excel-
lent in quality.—Berwick Advertiser.
Ross-suntE.—The weather continues uncommonly
favourable to the farmer. Reaping is progressing with
uninterrupted rapidity; and already some of our corn
yards show a goo ily array of conical stacks. If this
sort of weather continues for some time longer, an
abundant crop will be housed or stacked in safety.—

JAMES KIRKPATRICK, late of Newport, Banker'
recently submitted to Public Competition, in Lots, the VA-
LUABLE MANOR and ESTATE of NITON, on the
Southern Coast of the Isle of Wig,ht, the result was a Sale of
more than 40 Lots. The Assignees have been advised that
the remaining part of this unrivalled Property should be fur-
ther sub-divided ; they have adopted the suggestion, and having
set out new Lines of Road, now propose TO SUBMIT TO

MONDAY, the 19th day of September, 1842, at Three o'Clock
in thg Afternoon, the unsold portion (in Lots wore convenient

will comprise Four compact and excellent Farms, of from 50
to 350 Acres. The Lands under the Cliff, on which the new
roads have been set out, will be offered in more than Forty
Lots, and thus un Estate which combines picturesque scenery,
excellent bathing, situate in England's mildest clime, the place
which has long been wished for is now to be obtained. The

To those who are mot familiar with the Estate, a sufficient
direction will be, that it includes the line of coast from near
St. Catherine's Lighthouse to Puckaster Cove, on the southern
shore of the Isle of Wight. It may not be immaterial to add,
that good roads, very easy parochial rates, vicinity to a church,
excellent neighbourhood, good inns, and the most romantic

BENIO WSKI'S PHR
MEETING OF ME OTYPICS.
CHANICS.
A public meeting of the friends and members of
the Mechanics' Institution, Southampton-buildings,
convened by the Committee of that institution W;

th
iof the and commodious
of the experience of several members of the Com-
mittee
artificial memory, invented by the Polish
h exile, Major
Beniowski, andy by him designated " Phrenotypics."
The theatre was completely crowded, and the
spacious gallery was filled with ladies, who appeared
to take great interest in the proceedings. The Chair-
man saki 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 phrenotv-
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 iu 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 of the " London Encyclopedia," 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
recollection of the succession of notes in musical com-
positions so effectually, that he had, since his course
of six lessons, mastered 320 tunes, with the names
and times of the authors.
Towards the close of the proceedings a Mr.
Grogean, a:member 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 grew
applause throughout.

four hundred pounds at 2 to 1 and 10 to 6, and this
evening at 6 to 4 ; the other starters will be—A British
Yeoman, Winter, Lady Skipsey, Birlime colt,' Maria
Day, and The Orphan Boy.
The weather yesterday was stormy, with thunder and
lightning ; but to-day has been perfectly tine. The town

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.
Before Mr. WALEsur, Chairman, and a full Bench oi

Magistrates.)

The Rev. Thomas Boddington 'and Matilda Tippet's
were indicted, charged with having assaulted } rede-
rick Penn Tippetts, the husband of the latter.
Mr. Clarkson conducted the prosecution, and Mr.
Payne appeared for the defendants.
Mr. CLARKSON having stated the case, called
The prosecutor, who said that he had first become
acquainted with the rev. defendant about two years
since. Their acquaintance had commenced at the
Crown coffee-shop. The female defendant had at
that period lived as nursery-governess in the family
of the rev. gentleman. About the month of April
Mr. Boddington had oTered to procure him such en-
gagements in Sydney as should realise a pecuniary
remuneration of 3/. per week. The defendant then
suggested to him the propriety of his marrying ere he
set out, and eventually introduced him to the female
defendant, as a suitable match for him. Ultimately
they were married, last May. Finding, however,
that the rev. gentleman did not carry his promise,
of sending him over to Sydney, into effect in six weeks
time, he went into the country in search of employ-
ment, having previously taken a place for his wife
at 14, White Conduit-grove. In the meantime
it so happened that the rev. defendant had re-
moved to York-street, City-road. After an absence
of a month he returned from the country, and on
going to White Conduit-grove, he discovered that his
wife had left, but whither he for some time was un-
able to learn. In consequence, however, of the in-
formation he received at that house, he was induced
to watch the rev. defendant, and followed him to
No. 3, Spencer-place. On the 25th of the last month
he accordingly went to the house, and upon knocking,
was admitted by his wife, who told him to wait in
the passage. She appeared to be very cross, where-
upon he affectionately patted her on the head, on
which she seized hold of a pair of bellows, and struck
him violently across the shoulders, exclaiming that
she would soon get some one who would settle him.
At this moment the rev. defendant entered the house,
and immediately struck him with his clenched fist on
the chest, his wife crying out, "here is the villain !"
an exclamation she instantly followed up by striking
him and pulling his hair. The rev. defendant then
t,,ok up the poker, and was in the act of striking him
over the head, when a man of the name of Dawes
rushed into the room and wrested it from his hands,
his wife crying out " Murder." He then ran away, and
on the 27th he obtained the warrant for the assault.
Cross-examined—Prior to the commencement of
his acquaintance with the male defendant he had been
engaged in the linendrapery and butchering trades.
It was not until after he was introduced to his present
wife by the male 'defendant, that he had held any
communication with her. When he went into the
country to seek employment, he had left his wife
without any means of support. When he went to
Spencer-place, he told her she was no better than she
ought to be, but that was after his wife had desired
him to wait in the passage. After the rev. defendant
had come in he struck him on the face, and made his
nose bleed. ' He also struck his wife, and called her
names.

Re-examined—On the night of his marriage h
had found the rev. defendant in the bed in which he
and his wife were to have slept, and was obliged to
obtain the assistance of his brother to pull the de-
fendant out.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

This matter was subsequently explained by the an-
swers to questions put to the witness by the counsel
for the defendant and several members of the bench,
when it appeared that the wedding festival was held
at the house of the rev. defendant, who had offered
the " happy pair " a bed for the night. At this en-
tertainment the father and mother of the prosecutor
were present. It unfortunately chanced, however,
that the rev. gentleman having been too indulgent in
the good things, became ill, whereupon he had walked
off to bed, and, as ill luck would have it, took his re-
pose in that room which had been appropriated the
bridal couple. The prosecutor; on making the dis-
covery, waxed wrathful, and called his brother to
assist in dislodging his host. His wife was in another
room. She had been the nursery governess in the
family, and he had entertained some suspicion that all
was not right between the rev, gentleman and the
young lady. After some further evidence,
Mr. PAYNE addressed the Jury for the defendant,
when

The CHAIRMAN, at great length, summed up the
case, and directed the attention of the Jury to some
discrepancies in the evidence of the prosecutor, and
that which had been given by the other witnesses.
They had heard the way in which the prosecutor,
whose duty, let it he
.borne in mind, it was to make
out and substantiate his case, had given his testimony.
It would be for them to say whether he had done so
to their satisfaction. If he had, they would find a
verdict in his favour ; but if he had failed therein,
then it would be their duty to lean to the side of
mercy, and return a verdict of acquittal.
The Jury retired, and, after an absence of upwards
of three hours, returned with a verdict of Not Guilty.

DONCASTER, SUNDAY NIGHT, 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 1 was laid against
Attila, in all to nearly 5004, but the offers to invest
" told" so effectuallyon 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; Eboracuin receded several points,
and Master Thomas was banked at 33 and 40 to 1.
Great anxiety was evinced for the arrival of Scott's
string from Pigburn, and it was increased in some quar-
ters by a rumour that Attila would not aceampany it, but
would be yenned 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
others in their wake, viz., The Artful Dodger, Master
Thomas, 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
en immediate effect on the odds ; nor, in fact, beyond
bets against Master Thomas at an, 0, and lastly 20 to 1,
to a large amount, and the advance of the Agreeable colt
to 10 to 1, was anything ofconsequence done until night.
The Attila party then came out in greater strength tilai4
