The proposed line is intended to form A connecting line between
the Great Western and the Birmingham Railways, and the most
central part of London, and thus to obviate the serious inconvenience
arising from the great distance of their respective termini from the
Clty. It will also meet the expressed wish of the Board of Trade in
fa ,amour of a central terminus. .

To accomplisk this desirable object, the line will commence at the
south-west corner of the new Farringdon-street, passing in a north-
westerly direction to Battle-bridge, and from thence it will proceed
almost In a straight line to the luggage station of the Birmingimm
Railway, at Camden-town.
The houses in and about Saffron-hill, and also on the greater part
of the line, are small, and of such a description that their removal
will greatly benefit the neighbourhood, by improving its salubrity,
and increasing the value of the surrounding property.
The ProviMonal Committee have satisfied themselves, by careful
surveys, that no engineering difficulties will present themselves in
the construction of this railway, and it may be reasonably expected
to yield a fair rollt to the subscribers, as it is calculated that, by
fares from passertgers alone, a return of more than 71. per cent. upon
the capital will be realised, without including what will be received
for ground rents, vault rents, the carriage of goods and cattle, and
also irrespective of the increased traffic which may reasonably be
anticipated from the lines already formed, or contemplated, to the
north and north-east of London, and of which the terminus of this
Company will eventually become the common centre.
No subscriber will be liable beyond the amount of his subscription,
and power will be taken in the Act of Incorporation to allow 41. per
cent. interest on deposits and calls, from the period of obtaining the
Act until the completion of the line.
Applications for shares, in the form required by the Registration
Act, as annexed, can be made, addressed to the Company's Solici-
tor, John Castle Gant, Esq., 37, Nicholas-lane, London; to Messrs.

This Company is established for the manufacture and sale of the
Concentrated Essences of Tea and Coffee under Staite's Patent, by
licence from the Patentee.

The advantages peculiar to the process for which this patent has
been granted, are very numerous ; but among the most prominent is
this, that while the properties of the material are completely ex-
tracted, its available quantity is augmented, and its virtues improved.
The distinctive qualities of the Essence obtained are, the retention
of the identical flavour and fragrance of the particular Tea or Coffee
used, and a degree of strength secured before unknown.
The method employed in preparing and putting up these Essences,
secures them against injury from the lapse of time and change of
climate, affords the greatest possible facility for portability and im-
modiate use, and so reducei the price to the consumer, that economy
itself Punishes an ample guarantee for their extensive use.
One teaspoonful of the Essence,- In a cup of boiling water, will be
sufficient for the instantaneous production of a cup of tea or coffee of
the finest quality.
The following certificate from Dr. Ure 'is, with satisfaction, sub-
joined :

" I hereby certify, that Staite's Patent Essence of Tea is a pure and
wholesome beverage; and that is Is extracted by a peculiar process,
which, while it excludes in a great measure, the bitter and astringent
matter always present in the teapot, preserves and refines all the
exhilarating and aromatic principles of the Chinese herb. Being put
up in Mr. Band's Collapsible Tubes of puro tin, it will keep un-
changed for any length of time.

(Signed) "ANDREW URE, 3f.D., FRS.,
" Analytical Chemist to the Board of Customs, &c., &c."
The Committee have also thought it right to have the samples of
the Essences submitted to high and unbiassed authorities in the Tea
Trade. The following testimonial from a well-known and eminent
judge is the result

"W. J. Bland having tested the samples of the concentrated Es-
sence of Tea, manufactured under Stalte's Patent, pronounces them
clean, full and perfect.

" By whatever process the Extract is obtained, the aroma is finely
preserved, and without the crude or fibrous property which ordinary
methods of maceration or evaporation would exhibit ; the distinctive
flavours of Pekoe, Souchong, Congou, &c., are completely preserved,
so that even critical judges of the article would not be able to tell any
number of cups of the diluted Essence apart fivm others infused
after the common method. This result may be regarded as the
acme of the invention, and its greatest protection and recommenda-
tion.

"The Coffees, extracted after the same patent, •are rich and aro-
matic in flavour, and brilliant in colour : perfectly pellucid, without
the slightest sediment—whilst the distinguishing properties of the
Mocha,.the Mountain Berry, and other known peculiarities, are so
naturally, developed as rot to he mistaken.

The friendly feeling which, from various causes, exists between
Great Britain and Germany, excites a confident hope that the exer-
tions which are being made to establish a charitable asylum for sick
natives of the latter country will excite a general sympathy, and
meet with encouragement.
Of the vast number of industrious Germans in London the ma-
jority are, from the nature of their occupations (sugar refining, skin
dressing, skin dying, and ether callings), exposed to accidents and
subjected to aliments that often reduce them to extreme want and
deep misery.
The philanthropic generosity which opens the noble hospitals of
this metropolis alike to the foreigner and the native, has proved in-
adequate to meet with due relief the innumerable applications of the
afflicted. Peculiar difficulties must surround the poor German in his
hour of calamitous illness. The inability of the sick man to express
himself in English must prevent his profiting so fully as he might by
the medical attendant's skill, impede very considerably the services
of the nurse, and in too many cases exclude the patient from those
highest consolations to be derived from his religious counsellor.
The sum of 5,0001. will be required to establish completely the pro-
posed Institution, and from 1,200/. to 1,5001. per annum will be
needed to secure its efficient maintenance. From the liberal encou-
ragement already received from the highest quarters, both in this
country and abroad, the Provisional Committee have every reason to
expect that, under the Divine blessing, their labours In this cause will
be attended with a prosperous issue.

COTTON.—The following remarks on the cotton
season are taken from the New York circular of Messrs. Wright and
Lewin, dated May 31 :--.` The cotton season is drawing rapidly to
a close. At the south, the falling off in receipts is evidence that
the crop is nearly all in, and the reduction in the stocks at the
principal shipping ports precludes the possibility of any further ex-
tensive operations until next fall. Already some of the largest
buyers are on their way to England, and from this time until the
next crop comes to market the movements in this great staple will
be void of particular interest. the receipts into the ports since
the Ist of September last amount to 2,‘299,552 bales, against in
1843 to corresponding dates, 2,251,175, being an excess as com-
pared with that year of 48,377 bales. The receipts after the dates
from which these figures are taken, '^ 1843, were 127,700 bales,
which amount, added to our present re,,lpts, would give us a crop
of 2,447,252 bales; and this amount, from all the information we
can gather on the subject, will probably exceed, rather than fall
short of, the extent of the present crop. We have found during
the past winter so much diversity of opinion in relation to the
question of crop, that it has been mere difficult than usual to form
a correct estimate, but we have held to the opinion expressed in
our circular of the 15th of November last, and reiterated in that of
the 31st of January last, that the probable amount of cotton grown
during the season of 1844 would be between 2,400,000 and
2,500,000, and that the receipts into theports would depend some.
what on the prices ruling in all the large markets. The
advance which has taken place in the article since December last
has brought nearly the whole quantity grown to market, and the
advices per Britannia, received about ten days ago, will no doubt
induce planters to send what little there may be remaining in the
interior to the shipping ports."

It appears from what we now learn that the dis-
covery of nitrate of potash and nitrate of soda in the neighbourhood
of Angra Pequina has already formed a species of speculation on
the part of several of our merchants in London, who have not
hesitated to dispatch a fleet of vessels in quest of these articles.
Some parties have been fortunate enough to enter into contract
with the masters of ships for directions to the particular spot on
the guarantee of a certain amount of commission being paid if a
successful voyage should be insured, and the cargo sell at a certain
scale of prices named in the articles of agreement. To prove that
the possessors of the secret are in no manner doubtful of the result
of the enterprise, they have, it is understood, shipped several miles
of a tram-road, with necessary carriages, for the conveyance of the
product, upon which they propose to levy a duty of 2s. 6d. or 3s.
per ton, In Increase of the funds they hope to derive from their
first commission. This new discovery has created some sensation
among the merchants connected with the trade of the coast of
Africa, and it promises in some respects to yield, like the late
guano speculation, abundant employment for shipping. Copper ore
and common salt also abound in the same neighbourhood, and the
question is, whether other mineral discoveries may not enhance the
trade of the coast.

MISTAKEN SEIZURE Or TOBACCO.—On subject:rig
the samples of tobacco and snuff seized upon Mr. Taddy's pre.
raises, in the Minories, to strict analysation at the Excise.office, it
appears they were found to be free from adulteration, and the four
officers, consequently, who were left in charge of the premises
have been removed, and the business is resumed.

L A W INTE LLIGENCE.
COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, June 16.
WANT V. GINGER.
Mr. Sergeant Channell appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Sergeant
B)les and Mr. Montague Smith represented the defendant.
The plaintiff is a builder by trade, and the defendant Is, or was
in May, 1844, the landlord of the Cape of Good Hope, Albany-
street, Regent's.park, where, in the beginning of last year, he
thought fit to start a " Thtrby sweep." The terms of the lottery
were that each subscriber should put down two guineas, and there
was to be a prize of 2001. for the holder of the first horse, and a
prize of 501, for the holder of the second, the winner of the first
prize "standing'' a dozen, and the winner of the second prize
three bottles of champagne. Among the subscribers was a person
named Saunders, formerly a clerk in the Post-office, but now a
publican, who, when the horses were drawn, had the good fortune
to get a ticket with " lonian " upon it. It will be recollected that
lonian was one of Colonel Peel's lot, and was a greater favourite
for the Derby than Orlando, who afterwards carried off the
stakes. Towards the latter part of April lonian. as a
leading favourite for the Derby, was of so much
value in the sporting circles to which the parties
connected with the case resorted, that the ticket drawn by
Saunders was at a considerable premium, and he conse-
quently commissioned the defendant, who was the treasurer of the
" sweep," to sell his chance. According to the account which
Saunders gave of the matter, the defendant told him on the first
Thursday in May that he had sold the ticket to a person for 61. 10s.,
upon which he had received 1/. deposit, and that the rest of the
money was to be made good on the following Sunday. The money
was not, however, made good at the appointed time, and Saunders,
after giving the party eight or nine days' time, agreed to return the
deposit to him, and treat the bargain as rescinded. He subse.
quently sold the ticket to the plaintiff for Si., and informed the de-
fendant of it, both by wcrd of mouth and by letter. The defendant
did not say anything about his having sold the ticket himself, but
after the race was run, and the place of lonian, as second horse,
was esttlakg4sUlythe result of the trial of `i Wood v. Peel" in
the Court of Exchequer in July last, the defendant told Saun-
ders he had sold the ticket before the race, and requested him
to return Want his money, observing " that he would sooner
forfeit 1001. than that Want (making use of a vulgar expres-
sion) should have the prize." The credit of the witness Saunders
was considerably shaken on Isis cross-examination, and if the
case had rested on his testimony alone, perhaps the plaintiff
might have had a verdict against him. He admitted that he had
left the Post-office upon a charge being made against him of open-
ing letters with a view of obtaining information about sporting
matters ; and although he denied that he had ever opened any
letters to see what "Running Rein" was doing, he declined to
say whether he had not done so to get information about " Red
Deer,'' who won the cup last year at Chester. Another witnes-,
however, named Thomas Dawson Smith, whose testimony was
above impeachment, confirmed the material portions of Saunders's
evidence, and stated that the very day before the race, which took
place on the 22d of May, he went with the plaintiff to the de-
fendant's house, and heard the letter from Saunders read, request.
log the defendant to let Mr. Want have the ticket for lonian, as
he had sold him the ticket for 8/. The defendant then said that he
could not conveniently put his hand on the ticket, but that if the
horse won Mr. Want should have the money. A notice was also
served on the defendant on the 27th of May, in which the plaintiff
requested him to retain the money the second horse was entitled
to until the stakes for the Derby were given up to the horse enti-
tled legally to the first prize.
_ _

Mr. M. SMITH addressed the jury for the defence, and called
three witnesses to show that the defendant had sold the ticket in
question for 61. 105. to two persons named Carter and Bowles,
from whom he had received that amount, and to whom, on the
9th of July, he paid 501., as the holders of the ticket. In the
course of their evidence the unpleasant fact was elicited that the
defendant had been one of the " defaulters " on the Derby last
year, and that he had offered ss. in the pound on his turf debts.
Lord Chief Justice TINDAL summed up the evidence, and told
the jury that if they believed the witness Smith, there could be no
defence to this action. The defence set up was, that Ginger had
authority from saenders to sell the ticket, and that he sold it, and
received the money. If so, why did he not pay it, or offer to pay
it to Saunders ? and why did he not, when asked for the ticket,
say that he had sold it, instead of saying " that he could not con-
veniently lay his hand upon it ?" Supposing his account to be true,
it was his own fault if he paid the money twice over.
The jury immediately returned a verdict for the plaintiff—
Damages, 501.

Attorney for the plaintiff, Mr. Pile; for the defendant, Mr.
Futvoye.

ICE IN TELLIGENCE.
SOUTHWARK.

Yesterday, Mary Crowley, a girl of 15 years of age, was
brought before Air. Trail) on the following charge :
Policeman 2M M stated that, on the preceding night, the
prisoner called at several chemists' shops in the Borough to
try and purchase arsenic, which she said was fur the purpose
of killing ver.r.in, but was refused to be served at each of the
shops. He (the policeman) followed her from the last shop,
and as he suspected from her conduct that she intended laying
violent hands upon herself, he went up, and having spoken to
her, she made such an admission with respect to the poison she
was trying to procure, that instead of letticg her walk away
in the direction of the river, to which she was approaching, he
took her to the station-house, at which place she candidly con-
fessed she had made up her mind to destroy herself.
Mr. TaA ILL upon seeing the girl at once recognised her,
although so young, as having been brought up before him a
short time since on a charge of having robbed a man of his
watch in a brothel. On that occasion, as no prosecutor ap-
peared, he discharged her ; but from her account it would ap-.
pear that the treatment she experienced at home from a mother-
in-law was the cause of her absconding, and, subsequently,
leading an abandoned life. But he (the Magistrate) advised
her, as she seemed desirous of returning to the paths of virtue,
to make application for admission into the asylum for the re-
ception of such unfortunate outcasts of society, but instead of
taking his advice it now appeared that she was endeavouring to
procure arsenic to poison herself.
The defendant said that, agreeably to the Magistrate's direc-
tions when she was last there, she called at the asylum he men-
tioned, but they would not admit her as the board did not
assemble until the following Monday • that tired and disgusted
with such a life, and not knowing what to do, she intended to
have destroyed herself with poison.
Mr. TRAILL, on finding the unfortunate young creature still

anxious to reform and leacra virtuous life, sent an officer of the
court with her to the Guardian Asylum, in the Bethnal-green-
road, an excellent institution for the reception of young females
in her destitute condition, into which she was admitted.
•
WORSHIP-STREET.

UNFOUNDED ACCUSATION.—Yesterday two young men,
named John and Isaac Hensler, were placed before Mr.
Broughton for final examination, on the charge of having en-
dangered the life of an elderly man, named Richard Howell, by
throwing him into a branch of the Regent's Canal.
It is necessary to state, that on the afternoon of Tuesday
week the complainant was found lying in a state of insensibility,
and apparently dead, on a footpath immediately adjoining the
canal, and was removed to a neighbouring public-house, where,
on recovering his consciousness, he stated that, while resting
himself on the coping-stone of the bridge, he was wantonly as-
sailed by a party of disorderly young men, two of whom sud-
denly caught him by the legs, and flung him over into the water.
The prisoners and four other men were subsequently appre-
hended by the police and confronted with the complainant, who
unhesitatingly identified them as two of the most active of his
assailants, and gave them into custody.
The complainant, who had ever since been confined to his
bed in consequence of the injuries he had sustained, was
now in attendance, and repeated his former statement as to
his having been thrown into the water by a party of young
men; but on being called upon to identify the prisoners, he
declared himself unable to do so ; and said that he was in
such a confused and bewildered state at the time he pointed
them out as his assailants, that he was not conscious of what
he was stating.
The prisoners complained; bitterly of the great injustice
and inconvenience they had sustained from the false accu-
sation which had been brought against them by the complainant,
who had since admitted that he was intoxicated at the time of
the occurrence, and had accidentally fallen into the stream.
George Gee, and another witness, were then called, and
stated that the complainant had told them, after he had been
extricated from the water, that while seated on the coping-
stone of the bridge, he had fallen asleep, and over-balanced
himself, and that no violence whatever had been offered to him.
Mr. BROUGHTON said, that after the evidence he had heard
there could not be a doubt that the accusation against the pri-
soners was wholly without foundation, and he greatly regretted
that they had been subjected to so much trouble and annoyance,
but he should now discharge them, and they left the bar with-
out the slightest imputation or, their character.
THAMES POLICE.
DA RING HOUSE-BREAE:ING AND ROBBERY.—Two re-
spectably dressed men, named John Newman, and John Jones,
alias Saunders, were charged with feloniously breaking into
and entering the house of an elderly unmarried lady, residing at
No. 3, Rodney-terrace, Mile-end-road. Newman has been
seen under suspicious circumstances, and Saunders has been
frequently on the treadwheel. It appeared that on Sunday Miss
Pickering, the owner of No. 3, went to church, giving her
servant, Ellen Flyn,permission to go also. They fastened the
house, but left no person in care of it. In about a quarter of
an hour afterwards a lady, named Miller, living in Waybridge-
place, opposite Rodney-terrace, saw Jones loitering about the
place, and another person, whom she believed to be the pri-
soner Newman, cross to him. Jones then went to the
door of No. 3, Rodney-terrace, and knocked.
Having waited a little while, he began as if trying
the lock, when the door opened, and he entered, closing
the door behind him. In a few minutes Newman went
to the door, and was admitted. The alarm having been
given, a neighbour, named Cornish, knocked at the door, but
receiving no answer, he was about to proceed to the rear of the
premises, when the door was opened by Newman, whilst the
other prisoner was looking over his shoulder. Mr. Cornish,
addressing Newman, said, " I want you, young fellow," but
the door was instantly closed. Mr. Cornish having gone round
with a constable, to whom he communicated the circumstances,
saw Jones, who dropped a jemmy getting over the fence. He
pursued, and, after a smart run, apprehended him, when a des-
perate struggle ensued, both falling and rolling over several
times. During the struggle the prisoner took a bundle of
keys from his pocket, and endeavoured to inflict serious in-
jury with them on Mr. Cornish, who, however, maintained
his held until 392 K came up. The prisoner, who con-
tinued to resist very violently, had two skeleton keys in his
hand, and twelve others were found in his pocket by the
constable. During this time another neighbour, named
Wilson, having heard that there were thieves in Miss
Pickering's house, went to the back of the premises and
saw Newman attempting to get over the wall. Finding he was
observed, Newman shrunk back into the house pursued by Mr.
Willis, who found him concealed in the water closet. He was
detained until O'Brien, 56 K, came up, when he was given in
charge, and two bl. notes, which were identified by Ellen Flyn,
Miss Pickering's servant, as her property, were found in his
sswaistcoatwhich

fence,
A. BRODIRIP said it was his duty to commit them for this
most daring housebreaking and robbery, and he must observe,
the implements found upon them would make it appear as if
it
were not their first offence. The conduct of the witness Cor-
nish was highly commendable, and he exhibited great spirit in
grappling with so powerful and violent an antagonist as Jones.
The prisoners were then committed to Newgate.

The Irish provincial journals give the most cheer-
ing accounts of the crops in all parts of the country. The harvest
is likely to be early, and very abundant.

BRADFORD MARKET, THURSDAY.—The demand for
wool runs most upon fine sorts, and full prices are
maintained. Low deep grown sorts and fleeces
are dull, and may be had a shade eh( aper. There is no
variation in yarns. There is a steady business doing
in all kinds of plain goods, particularly merinos, of
which there is no stock. The fancy trade continues
very unsatisfactory, and the manufacturers engaged in
it co:nplain bitterly.
MANCHESTER, THURSDAY EVENING.—Since Tuesday►
our cloth ina'ket has assumed more quietness; but there is
nothing in the shape of pressing sales or selling on lower
terms. Still there is not that life and buoyancy that was
so perceptible on Tuesday. Yarns are in extraordinary
good demand, and prices are fully id. per lb dearer since
the commencement of the month.

Park, in aid of the Royal Dispensary for Diseases of the Ear,
promise to be very attractive. The locality itself is well
worth visiting ; it contains a vast number of works of Gre-
cian and Roman art, curious relics from Pompeii and Her-
culaneum, and other objects of interest. The concert is under
the direction of Sir Henry R. Bishop, and supported by many
eminent musicians. Every exertion will be made to render
the fete as amusing and interesting as possible.
AINSWORTH'S MAGAZINE.—We understand that
one of the most distinguished writers of the day is engaged
upon an Historical Romance, to appear immediately in Ains-
worth's Magazine, and which, we doubt not, will add to the
literary character as well as to the popularity of this periodical.

PLYMOUTH, SATURDAY, JUNE 14.—The Great Bri-
tain steamship, Lieutenant Hosken, R.N., commander, arrived
here this evening. She left Cowes at 9 ♦.at., and entered Ply-
mouth Sound at 8 P.M. In the passage her average speed was
about 11 miles an hour. From London to Plymouth she was 33
hours under steam. During the whole of her voyage the weather
was more or less hazy. In clear weather, under favourable cir-
cumstances, the Irish steam-boats will sometimes snake their pas_
sage from London to Plymouth in 30 hours. From Elackwall she
conveyed about 75 passengers to Cowes, where 40 landed. At that
port she took on board .0, and brought in all about 00 to Ply-
mouth, among whom are Captain Claxton and several of the Direc-
tors of the Great Western Steamship Company. The passengers
express themselves well pleased with the ship, but more especially
with the absence of the tremulous motion which always accompa-
nies the paddle-wheel. Her expected arrival here has long been an
object of great interest to the inhabitants of Devon and Cornwall,
and early in the forenoon the hills by the sea.side were studded with
anxious spectators. The weather, though hazy, was fine, and the
wind blowing gently from the north-west. As the day advanced,
and doubts of her arrival prevailed, many retired, but only to give
place to others. Owing to the thickness of the weather, when first
descried she was within the Mewstone. The preconcerted signal
of ringing St. Andrew's Church bells induced the inhabitants of
this great naval port to rush in crowds towards the shores of the
Sound. The Hoe was densely covered, and the western Hoe, even
to the edges of its precipitous limestooe quarries, was deeply
fringed with persons of both sexes and all ages, who heartily
cheered the iron wonder. Outside the breakwater she was bearded
by Mr. W. Walker, the Queen's Harbour-master, who skilfully
piloted her by the eastern channel into the Sound, through which
she threaded her way among the numerous yachts, steam and sail.

Passing to the northward of Drake's Island, she entered Friestone-

bay. Outside Millbay-pier was the Severn, Havre steamer,
which fired a salute on the approach of the Great Britain. Inside
the pier lay the Tiger, Cork steamer, and the schooner Martha,
of St. Ives, discharging coal. After the Great Britain had got
pretty well inside these vessels, her stern was caught by the run of
the tide, and she swung a little to the southward. This brought
the bowsprit of the Tiger in collision with one of the ship's life-
boats, which was stove in, her starboard bulwark netting and ac-
commodation-ladder were also damaged. At the same time the
Tiger's bobstay and starboard bulwarks were injured, and some of
the collier's standing rigging carried away. The damage altogether
will not exceed 501. Although such a multitude was assembled no
personal injury occurred. A railed wooden gangway used foerncon-

barely maintained. Clothing sorts are in steady demand
at recent quotations.
WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, JUNE 13.—There is
no variation in prices of either long or short wool ; but
consumers buy the heavier descriptions of combing wool
with more confidence at the reduced rates, and the
lighter and better sorts are rather better to sell than
they were a month ago : short wool continues light in
stock, and sells readily at full rates.
YORK WOOL MARKET, JUNE 12.—Our market to-day
was very well stocked with wool, and the buyers in
attendance were extremely numerous. The prices vai ltd
considerably, and some thought that business had beon
done at rather lower rates than last week. Very few'
lots remain unsold. The following are the nearest
quotations :—Fine Hog 155., Hog and Ewe 125., 13s. 6d.,
145., and 14s. 6d. per stone.
LEEDS.—There was not quite so mach business done
at the Cloth Hall this week as last. The market,
however, was a full average of the markets generally
at this season of' the year, and there have been con-
siderable quantities of goods delivered to order.
Prices remain stationary, and the stocks in the halls
are lighter than usual at this period. This being be-
twixt the spring and fall season, few buyers have been
in the market ; in consequence, there has been little
doing in the warehouses. There is, however, a fair
amount of business doing by the.houses connected with
the shipping trade.
LEICESTER.—A fair shipping business is stilt doing both
in the regular hosiery and fancy goods. In the confidence
of a fah- autumn demanr', manufacturers are keeping their
hands well employed. Yarns are firm in price, and in more
request. Staplers hold wool with confidence, it is yet
two early to quote prices for the new clip ; but, in all
probability, it will not start at less than 30s. per tAl.—
