-=-=====. A TOPOGRAPHICAL -AND HISTORICAL r < A DESCRIPTION OF PEMBROKESHIRE, BY THE REV. THOMAS REES. (To be continued.) We may therefore proceed without farther mtorruptiou to the town of MILFORD. which it* distant eight miles from Haverfordwest. This place is of very recent origin: and the rapidity with which it has grown to its present extent, and the neatness, not to say elegance, with whicn its buildings have been constructed, r.re circuMstances that must render it highly inter- esting to- every visitor. The site formed part of the possessions of the late Sir William Hamilton, who bequeathed the estate to his nephew the Right Hon. Charles Greville; and to the judg- ment and patriotic spirit of this gentleman, Vlil- ford is indebted for its creation. The act of Par- iiament upon which the town was built, and which secured to it its present privileges, was passed in the year 1790. After having determined the situation, which is most eligibly chosen in one of the finest parts of the h^ven, Mr Greville proceeded to form the ground plan of the streets. The principal of these were marked oat in parallel lines, running nearly due east and west. and in the direction of the shore, having short streets of communication intersecting them at right angles. The lower street was to be formed of one row of houses, fronting the water. A considerable portion of this has already been built. The houses are re- markably good, many of them calculated for the residence of opulent families. At the western ex- tremi, y stands the Hotel, a large and commodious pile of building, containing every accommodation which can be desired in a house of public enter- tainment in a.place of such great resort. It com- prises one (A she best establishments of the kind in the principality. This street contains another very respectahle iun much frequented by travel- lers. Two of the streets running parallel with I this, rising above it on the side of the hill, are rapidly forming, each of them containing already a great number of houses, which have in general bfen tenanted aa soon as built. The church occupies a very commanding situ- ation near the haven, at the eastern extremity of the lowest street. It consists of a nave, chan' nel, and two side aisles. The windows are orna- I mented with plated glass, bearing the arms of Hamilton, Barlow, and Greville. At the west end is a lofty tower, which forms a very con- spicuous object from the water in sailing up the haven. The edifice was consecrated on the 14th of October, 1808.* The Custom House is placed at the lower end of the town in a convenient situation by the water sicie. It is a plain edifice, well adapted to its destined pnrposee. This establishment is inde' pendent of that at Pembroke, which used to in. elude this part of the haven. rhe Dock Yards form an important feature of this place. They are situated on the shore im- mediately in front of the town Two frigates and a seventy four have already been built bore under the direction of Mr Louis Barillier but it seems doubtful whether the admiralty will deem the establishment of sufficient importance to be maintained. Its discontinuance would be a serious injury to the rising prosperity of the town. Milford has a market which is held on Tuesday and Saturday in every week. Its trade is by no means considerable. Attempts have been made ky some enterprising individuals to establish a southern whftle fishery, but the speculation has not thus far. we believe, been very productive. There are several packets stationed here. under excellent regulations, for conveying the mails and passengers to Waterford. The London mail coach arrives every evening, and returns early the following morning and the mails for Ireland are forwarded with every possible dispatch. Milford is bounded on the west by a creek or inlet called Priory pill, on the opposite shore of which stands the village of Hakiug, sometimes called Old Milford. It was lately in contempla- tion to form this creek into a wet dock by deep' ening the channel, aud erecting a dam, with proper gate, at the entrance. The pIn has, how- ever, been abandoned. Between Hakin and Hubberston has been erected a handsome observa- tory, which is under the superintelldance of the Astronomer Royal of Greenwich. At the upper end of Hubberston creek are some remains of an ancient religious house called PILL PRIORY they consist of only a portion of the church, which appears tOs, have been a cruciform building. The foundation of this establishment is ascribed to Adam de Rupe, or de la Roche, who was a man of extensive possessions in this country towards the end of the twelfth century. At the Dissolution its revenues were granted to Sir Thomas Jones of Haroldston. It now forms a part of the possessions of Mr Greville. In proceeding to the westward in the direction of the Haven, a few gentlemen's seats will claim our notice. The first is Butter Hill the neat residence of Mr Roch. Farther on is Orlandon, the seat of J. P. Laugharne, Esq. At some dis- tance to the northward of these mansions lies Walwyn's Castle, called in Welsh Casiell Gwalch- mai, where tradition asserts the body of Gwalch- mai, a chieftain of gigantic stature, was discovered in the time of William the Conqueror. Nothing is kuown of the history of this place. There are here at present no vestiges of buildings, nor any indications of erections of any kind excepting an artificial mound of earth, which may have been surmounted by a small fortress, or may have been applied to any other use military or civil which the antiquary may be pleased to assign to it. At Orlandon a road turns to the southward which leads to tbe little village of Dale, pleasantly situated on a small bay near themauthofMil- ford Haven. It i« at present chiefly remarkable for an ancient castellated manaiou of the same name, now the property of John Lloyd, Esq., of Mabus in Cardiganshire, who obtained the estate by marrying the heiress- Near this place the »5arl of Richmond, afterwards King Henry the seventh, landed, previous to his march towards hosworth field, and here he was met by his zea- lous and powerful partizao, Sir Rhys ab Thomas In theebarob is a carious vase of red Porphyry brought from Egypt. It is rumoured that this wa placed here by Lady H—with the view of being con verted into a baptismal font: bat the pious prelate who then held the see, refusing to consecrate it to that use, dreading no doubt that its former applica- tion to heathen rites might contaminate the element it wonld have to contain, and vitiate the holv ordi- nance, it was found necessary to supply its place bv a vase from the purer marble of Derbyshire.

P limCE LEOPOLD AT OXFORD? Amongst those who have come into residence far Miehadnm term at Oxford, we may enumeiate his Royal Highness Hnicc Leopold, who with Mr Collins and Mr. Campbell, his Royal Highness private secretary and equerry, arrived between nine antl ten o clock on Saturday evening, per Great \V C8tern Railway. His Royal Highness, who ap- peared much improved in health since bst term, pro- ceeded on his arrival at once to Wykeham House St. Giles's, the Royal residence, which iipd been thoroughly cleanswl and renovated since Jane by Messrs. Fisher and Hobdcll, builders n«d surveyors of this city. Prince Leopold, we learn, will very shortly hold a levee in the city Buildings, when the leading citizens and members of the university who have not had the honour ot'being introduced to his Royal Highness will be formally presented. His Royal Highness will be formally presented. His Royal Highness will, it is stated, conclude his academic career this term, but will occasionally I honour Oxford with a visit after he has left, as he is much atta'-bed to the place. His Royal Highness is a member of Christ Church, to which his Royal' brother the Prince of Wales, hi.- Royal Highness tha Crown Prince it Denmark, and his Royal Highness Has- «" Egypt also belonged. I it. is staned, has presented Cora R. N., with a handsome riai. 8.*e Commander Bullen, '-•vn, and the two +o the '> •uftMn cf t, „ l,en the »' two hundred. There must be a gross error some- ] where, either in the official lists or in the minds of those who wish to:attend the banquet. Is it not 1 possible to correct it by reference to the muster rolls at the War Office and comparison of notes by the various troop serjeant majors who are still alive ? Some of those to whom circulars have been issued bave had the manliness to admit that although they were on the ground and wear the clasp, they were not in the charge, not having been mounted that morning or having been detailed on other duty Amongst the officers who have signified their inten- Hon to be present at the Alexandra Palace are two Knights of the Victoria Cross, Mr Woodan, formerly of the 17th Lancers, and now Quartermaster of the 10th Regiment in garrison at Dover, and Mr Malone formerly of the 13th Light Dragoons and now Riding Master of the Inniskillings stationed at Dnblin. Another notable paladin of the fray who has come to light and is anxious to meet his comrades, is John Daggan of Dundalk, alias" Butcher Jack," the Lancer who rode in his shirt sleeves as he rushed fresh from the slaughter-house when he heard the trumpets sound the alarm. John has now turned his sword not into a ploughshare, but into a sexton's mattock. According to the statements of their present modes of livelihood, the greater part of the survivors appear to be tolerably well off and as many of them still carry her Mujesty's livery there will be a brave show and some pretty contrasts of colour at the dinner. There are sundry adjutants j and drill fqstrnctors of yeomanry and volunteer corps, five Ohfilsea pensioners, a yeoman of the gnard, a commissionaire, a horse policeman, several prio"'n warders, and one man who is still serving in the 8th Hussars. Among those in civil employ the majority are railway servants, next some clerk*, valets, and grooms there are a few prosperous pub- lic ins and shop-keepers, one tragedian, one journal- ist, and one master of a workhouse. Touching the latter, Mr G. Garnhim, of Warwick, we are re- quested by him to make known that Charles Smith, the tramp who cheated a gentbman at Kiddermin- ster ont of his sympathy by representing himself to be one of the warriors whom Tennyson sang, is a fraud. Mr Garnham writes I have known him for six years as a villanous imppster." The rural police are besought to take note of the warning. Many of the brave veterans are bard pushed to make both ends meet, and great anxiety was felt, when last we wrote on the subject, as to how the problem of bringing them to London was to be solved. The difficulty has now been happily overcome; close on £ 150 has been collected subscriptions are still pouring in. and free passes on their different sys- tems have been generondy granted by the following railway companies:—The Lmdon and North- Western, the Great Northern, the Great Western, the London and South Western, and the LOLdon Brighton, and South Coast.

THE ARCTIC EXPEDITION. H.M.S. Alert, at Carpi Islands, Three a.m., 27th July, 1875. Alert and Discovery arrived here at midnight, and will leave at six a.m. for Smith Sound, after deposit- iDjlli depot of provisions and a boat. We left Upnivik on the evening of the 22nd inst., and Brown Islands on the evening of the 23rd. Passing through the middle ice during a calm, we arrived at Cape York on the 25th inst. The season is a very open one, and we have every protpect of attaining a high latitude. All are well on board each ship. G. S. NARKS, Captain. R.N., in oommand of the Expedition.

ARRIVAL OF THE PANDORA. Portsmouth, Sunday ETening.-I When it beoanre noised abroad yasterdav afternoon that the Pandora sloop, captain Allan Young, had arrived at Spithead people were incredulous, as the little craft was not expected home till next year. When, however, it be- came certain that the good ship had arrived safe and sound, astonishment changed into anxiety to ascertain whether she brought anv news of the Alert and Dis- covery. Happily she did po, and thus removed any misgiving that may have lingered in the minds of some, notwithstanding the exposure of the bottle hoax respecting the safety of those ships. The Pandora left Portsmouth not longer ago than the 28th of June, and in the brief interval which elapsed, she has en- countered numerous perils, and on her exterior bears wa, km of her conflicts with the ice in the far north. H er officers consisted of the following :—First officei Lieut. Lillingston, R. N.; Lieut. Pierrie, >.N.[ navigating officer; Lieut. Beymen, Dutch Rflysi N ivy Dr Horner, naturaliet, and Mr De Wild naturalist. Mr MeGahan, special correspondent -of the New York Herald," also took voyage in the vessel. Her crew number. 24, and it is satisfactory to learn that both officers and men have returned in excellent health and spirits. On her passage to the North the Pandora encountered strong head winds and had an unusually long passage of forty days to Disco. At this place she only remained 12 hoars, it being ascertained that the Alert and Discovery had tu,i,ree, north some three weeks previously, and that the Valorous had left on her homeward passage from Disco. The Pandora went up to Waigat Strait to the ooal mines of Kridliset, where the crew ex- trncted and tor'k in forty tons of coal in twelve hours. They then proceeded north to Upernivik, where the ValoroiiG stopped an hour, merely for the purpose of sending some letters by some dogn. The Pandora hod met with ice off Cape Farewell, and up Weigat Strail they did so again, but not much. (Jpftrnirik was left on the day it was reached, viz., the 12th of Augua1. Proceeding northward, the Pandora crossed Melville Bay, which was found clear, with 'he exception of a mass of floating drift ice off Cape York, in about 71 decrees latitude, which was passed with some diffi- oolt, on tbe 17tb of August. Tha Pandora's course now lay to the westward, to warda Lancaster Sound. Captain Young, however, decided to go as far north as the Carey I-lands, to pick up any records or tet- ters that Captain Nares might have left departed there. The Pandora arrived off the North west Isladd on August 18, and found three cairns on the island, neitber of which, however, contained any commmunica, tions from Captain Nares. Thepe cairns bad doabllcaa been built by whalers who had landed ther», and it was concluded that Captain Nar«a had beeiv^t^ented tonohing here either by iempestuo.ua weatkw, iee, or fug. perhaps a combination of these. Captain Young niled the i»m» evening for Lancaster Sound reaohing the entrance on the 20th of /Vojjust The Pandora met Bome pack ice off Cape Watrender er tending acrosa the south, which she had great diffi- culty p^m*. Some people say^.hJt with a ba'vi" anv ax'*™ '1° CAarged' bat thn8C JhJJf. "penenee know that one mi*ht as well charge a rock as a mass of fl1)e i„ The only oourse to be taken is to wait and watch for an opening. This was an anxious time on board the Pandora as tha pack was about 59 milet in width. Eventually how- ever, the Pandora got throngh the pack and atarted far Beachy Island, which waa reached «n the evening of the 2fith of August. The object of the visit was to examine the state of the stores deposited here by for- mer expeditions with the double object of using then in case of need, and reporting upon their condition to the Admiralty. Upon landing Captain Young and lIi. offioera found Northumberland [loose, erected in 1849 still standing, but it had been broken into by the gristly bears of this inhospitable clime, and a large quantity of stores, dea'royed* An exit had been ob- hin'" by a window, and some of the siie boarding hid been torn away. Part of the things which had been hoarded up in strong solid barrels had remained uninjured by the bears, but some bad sustained con- siderable damage from the wet. The Mary, yacht and two life boats, whioh were left by Rosa at the same time as the supplies, were in a fair state of pre- servation, and woold be capable of going to sea after undergoing comparatively trifling repairs. It would be easily understood bow anxious the party were to put everything in order, and Northumberland Houte was also repaired. The weather was fine and olear but cold, and the sea remarkably open for the time of year. The lowest reoord of the thermometer at Beachy Island was 30, and the highest 40. Leaving the island the same day as the arrival, the Panddrl started for Peel Strait, arriving at its mouth on tbe evening of the 28th of August, when progress was stayed by th^pack, and the ship had to be moored to the ioe to a#HLevents. The crew went out on the ice to get "n(i some amusement was afforded during tbe staf hy shooting seals.

The Pandora lost jibboom and top gallant yard going out and met with similar casualties on the homeward voyage, and although she was safely moored in Ports mouth harbouth last evening her catalogue of mishaps was not completed, for this morning the Sunflower brig, dragging her anchor during a strong tid*, cam" into cnllison with her, carryiug away the Pandora's jib' boom and sustaining considerable damage to h..r own bulwarks.

She has been visited by Admiral Elliott com: mander ir chief, and Rear Admiral M'Clintjck, super- intendent of the dockyard who being an old Arctic nauigator, has heard with interest of all that she hss done.

TENBY. TOWN COUNCIL.—A speoial meeting of the town council was held on Monday. Present—The Mavor Mr Charles H. Smith, Aldermen Wells, Allen, and Bowen; Councillors Gregory, Chater, Riohards, Mends, Gilford, T. Rogers, J. Rogers, Rues, T. H, Thomas Birkin, and Davies. The miritilei of Ih,) last meeting were read and confirmed.—A I",ter wan reid from Mr E. R. Power, asking permission to make a footpath across some corp-iration properly near the slaughter house leading to his property. Th" matter was re- ferred to the surveyor to make a plan.—The plan of a hume in the Pill Field was approved of.—The Mayor said their next business Wi uld be to ennmder the re- ports of Mr Hasfard, O.F., dated May, 1874, and Oc. 8, 1876, relative to the drainage of ibi; Marsh, and the disposal of the sewage at present emptying into St. Flpreneest-cam,, Mr llassard, in his report of 1874, pro- posed to take the sewage to the Castle bill at a cost of JE7.CM by means of a tunnel beneath a part of ho town, and flhog the north beach, its total lungth being 1.480 yards and in his report of the 81h 0 tob r proposes to take the St. Florence stream by means of a tunnel from near the goods station of the railway to low water on the North Sand, at a cost of £ 9,500, with a special Act of Parliament, which would c 'st X2,000 more. Mr Divine thought Mr Hansard bad raised difficulties against the Giliar Mhrmo which would not bear inspection. He supposed Mr Hassardhad a repu- tation as a c'vil engineer which he wished to preserve; but other persons <•{ equally as good an opinion as Mr Hazard thought differently about the scheme. If tho council did not ri quire anything but a oontinual flow of the St. Florence stream, he (the speaket) had a scheme of his own that Would effect that objeot. He would make a tunnel and cinvoy the stream for a cost "f £ 5,250. In reply to several members, Mr Davies declined then to state the nature of his plan, but be would do so to a c >remittee of the council it they would walk with him to the spot. Mr Allen, at con- siderable length, reviewd the paet history of the scheme that flRd been devised for the relief of the water in St. Florence V«ll«y, and criticised Mr Has- sari*s plan for carrying the wholejof the sewage of ths t wn to the Castle hillPcinti, the chief promenade of the town, and contiguous to the principal bathing place. If brought, then it could be prevented from washing on shore either on the north or south sides of the town, an! the one- ei had no right to take a nui- sance from one part of the town and deposit it in another. Mr Hassard, in his last report, says that the present culvert clJuld be extended, and the cost would but be easy to estimate. Now he (the speaker) had gone into this question with their surveyor and others, and found that it would not be such an expensive job. Mr Joseph Roberts said that be could clear the culvert for about £ 40 or £;'0, while the cost of the irnn pipes the surveyor thought, would be about £ 1,600. He should propose that the • Flood water be disposed of by clearing out the present culver', constructing* the vatve chamb-r at its mouth,' and laying two lines of 4 feet cast iron pipes from the valve chamber 200 yards towards low water, and that the tanks nfcoessary for oonveying the sewage to the land for irrigation ho on- struc-ed.' This was seconded by Mr John Gifford.— Mr Daines then proponed that the plan of Mr flassa-d fir conveying the sewage to the Castle hill, be ap- proved of, and that he be instructed to proceed with it #and to obtain an Act of Parliament in accordance with his recommendation. The Counoil divided as follows -For Mr Diinve's amendment; Daines, Richards, Gregory, Chater, Vend*, Rees, and Thomas. Against, The Mayor, Birkin, Wells, Allen, Roger4, Davies, Giffurd, and T. Rogers, 'Jhe amendrtent was, there fore, lost. The council again divided for Mr Allen's motion, but that was rejected by a majority of one. The council then broke np.

PEMBROKE. At the county sessions 00 Saturday, the following magistrate" were present—Messrs. L. Mathias, N. A. Roch, W. Hulm, and Captain H. Loach, but there WttH no business for disposal. HIRING FAIR.—On Saturday the town was full of farmers and agricultural servants, a considerable amount of business being done in hiring Aervant8- malo and female-for the ensuing year. Wagns were about An averaue of the rates demanded for the yeirs 1874 and 1875, and there was no dearth of ser- vants of any kind.

PEMBROKE DOCK. McNTTTONs.—Daring the j a(t weok delaebmemi of men of the Royal Artillery have been employed at Hobb's Puint, loading barges with shot, shell, and otler munitions of war, to complete the armament of South Hook, litibberqton, and Popton forts. The fortification on Thorne Island, at the entrance to the Haven, will, it is said, be "entirely recoustruoted on m urovel principles, and be armed with guns of the heaviest kind, similar to those in use on tho Stack Kijotc fort.

THE WHITECHAPJBL MURDER. It was intended immediately after the committal for trial of the prisoners, Henry Wainwright and Thomas George Waiuwright, upon the charge of wilful murJer thit they should be removed to the gaol of Newgate 10 await their trial. It appears however that, after the final examination, the younger prisoner. Thomas Wainwright, felt very seriously indisposed, and he, was at once seen by Mr Waterworth, the medicay rffiocr of the prison, who considered it advisable that the removal should be delayed for a few days, be which time it was expected that the health of the prisoner Thomas would be entirely res'ored. The illness under which he ip labouring appears to havi been brought on to a groat extent by the excitemens resulting from the long ezunination to which he ban been subjected bt the poli«# oourt, the oonstitutior and physical powers being apparently much weake than thoie of his brother Henry, who exhibits his or dinary demeanour, and appears very little affeoled by the position in which be is placed.

THE DEATH OF COMMODORE GODE NO UGH. The following copy of correspondence has been issued to the press from the Admiralty Her Majesty's Ship Pearl, at Sea, Lat. 25 deg. 2 min. S., long 159, deg. 7 qpQ, E, August 19, 1876. • Sir,-I have the lowur to report, for the informa- tion of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, my pirceedisus since the;dateofmy last general lctt r No. 2t2, aaterd 31st July, 187.0.

THE TURKISH BONDS. I Tiie loss of incoinu to bo disiiibuted among the I holders of Tuikuh bonds, is about £ 6,009,000 an- j nually, il not more. That widespread distress will therefore now enece tre c&unot doubt, and the only consolation is the philosophic reflection that the public have had another lesson in financial pru •] (feaoe which some will learn, though it seems hope- less ever wholly to eradicate the folly of careless in- vestment. How a largo capitalist class which lent, money to Turkey at usurious rates, knowing well the ri«-ks that were run, will be affected, is perhapti alai1 a question of importance. The operations of this class will be crippled directly and indireolly in future and the results will not be wholly beneficial to the public. Amid much bad business that has been in- troduced to the investing world in the shape of foreign loans, it has never beeh questioned that a large amount of the investments made abroad have yielded a good return, mean while furnishing a great amount of employment for capital and labour at home. An event which increases the discredit of foreign loans and foreign investments necessarilj check the good as well as the bad business and con- sequently retards the recovery in foreign trade, the investor submitting meanwhile to poor returns for hia money, because he is afraid to put it out. The mischief of bad business is thus not only the indirect loss it cause", but the stoppage of sound business it involveB.-Daily News.

THE LATE BISHOP THIRLWALL. Mr Jobn Thirlwall, writing in the "Spectator," says:—" Permit me, in reference to your brief re- mark on Bishop Tbirlwall's Notes on contemporary questi to say that there were two reasons which tndnced me to allow their publication in the Con- temporary. There are some persons who think that D.. Thirlwall did not speak ont plainly on the pass- iog subjects of interest in the Ohuroh and wbu mis- take the reason. 1 wish to Phom that to the last, he bad opinions, and wrs not afraid of expressing them. My second reason was to prove that, though debarred from using his pen, and later, from reading, he did not lose heart, conrage, or power, but -took as keen an interest as ever in the affairs of the Church, and was as strong and as able to deal with the questions of the day as before. The moment he could throw off the burden of Ills diocese, which cramped his hand and used up his strength, he beg n again to write. If but his sight had been spared, or i( he had bat retired oarlier from hts labours, before his life wns spent, these Notes mi.)ht htve been a book. They were a fitting ending to his life. At night he thought out his subjoct, in the day he dictated. Though blind add nnable to (read, he thought and planned future work. The worda from his lips came liko the letters from his pen, requiring no correction, to the last evening of his life. Though he did not dictate them for publication, 1 can never regret that the world has his last plain, outspoken words on Conteiilporary Questions,' iaoomplete as they are."

CAN WE SUPPORT TURKEY ? It seams to be generally conceded that we cannot send an army to Turkey. In the first placa, we can scarcely get together 50,000 mon without drawing upon every available sabre and bayonet, aud leaving neither proper garrisons at home nor the requisite reliefs for India. If we did get theto together, they would be a mere handful (in a modern sense) con- tending against enemies who could put ten men into the field to our one. Unless, therefore, Austria were fighting beside us, our troops would be of little value, for the breech loader has made it impossible .for small armies to perform the feats they did against superior force, when led by Napoleon or Wellington. But Austria's future fortune depends too closely upon a good understanding with Russia Wellington. But Austria's future fortune depends too closely upon a good understanding with Russia to permit her to act with us alone. Moreover, our rusty and complicated military machinery would be unequal to the work of collecting such a force in a short time, and when all the preparations were oomplete, there would still remain the heavy task of embarkation and transport. The whole process would probably occupy six or seven weeks, and what that means in a modern war no person acquainted with the events ol 1870 needs to be reminded. We should arrive too late. Little can be expected from a Conference, unless it be the much-canvassed plan of granting Bosnia and Herzegovina a qualified in- dependence suoh as that of Bonmania or Servia. But we cannot too strongly insist that such an agree- ment would be but a stopgap,—a triumph for Bt Petersburg, which would stimulate the Rassian em baRsy at Constantinople to fresh exertions r suppose, then, that a oonqneet or partition nf Empire .uccod.

^DO^YOTJ FEED YOUK BEES. I atyl ofteA asked this question. I reply, Yes, aometittteer S >tne time siuoe I wrote to you on the subject, but I do not remember from that time until atfa I have met with one who did not approve of ''fetnliog. However, I am not convinood that it is a good tiling to be always stuffiog bees, as some advise good tiling to be always stuffiog bees, as some advise If t continue to feed my bees so that they have tbe I hive full of syrup, are they not restricted in the space for breeding ? I have several swarms this spring from hives that had no feedirg all the winter. One poor neglected stotfc, taken in haste one day last year, was placed on an old iron stool covered with a bit of old sack, Q(t a piece of sheet lead to keep it on it is a vorv 9*1 ail straw hive. From this hive I have had three Hwarrai thU itiontb-t-wo of them good and one very small. Tbey aro all doing well, and the old stock aeVuis as strong as ever. I examined the first swarm last week and found bjpi^ey in fact it seema that they had filled the ootph with li Hiey as fast as they oonstrnoted the comb Now, had I fed them what rø-Gib hinder them from filling the comb, having no space left for young bees ?' I What has made me think it not-good to toed as a rule i", that the beos are taught to look fdg^ihe bot- tie instead of going abroad for honey. Mr Patligrew argues that sugar at 3d por lb neakos it profitable to feed, as if one pound of sugar would be converted into as muoh honey. This admis.hV) that sugar may be profitably converted into honey f* a fine tale for honey-buyers; besides, it euts the, ground from under those who go honestly to work to produce honey for exhibition. = A friend of mine told me to feed at all times when honey is scarce.

LATE APPLES. Good keeping apples are the most useful of fruits. A store wbieh lasts in good condition month after s month in the spring and summer period of the year 1 is a store of great value. This is the period of thi year to test the relative value of varieties. If they keep until now in a fresh orisp state they are worthy of mention, even as mnoh (lo-dare I write it—as are sweet-scented Roses. Which are really the best late 'ofta ? I mean those which bear well and keep well withont any speoial care. It would be interesting, and particularly useful, if those having, or have had MtU recently, Bound Apples, would let us know their names and a sketch of the conditions under which they have been preserved. Mere size is not so much an object, neither is a very high standard of quality to go for too much this season. Free-bear- ing, late-keeping, good useful Apples, are the kinds of which I think information would be acceptable. There is no difficulty in having Applet in the winter but we want them now, and until Apples come again What are the beat for culinary purposes, and the best for desert? I, Jfor OOfl, should be glad to know, and I feel sure the information would b" generally aaceptable. Three Apples which I have for a number of years found the most valuable are S'nrmer Pippin, dessert, small, free beater, and keeps frenh in a dark and not too dry cellar through- out June; Striped Beefing, large, sunny side red, a good bearer, and souud until June Gooseberry Ap- ple, medium-sized, great bearer, very firm through- out June, and often useable until August.

ITINERANT VENDORS OF ARTICLES. A dbcision of great practical importance to itin eranfc vendors of articles was given recently, say the Law Times, by the Court of Queen's Bench, in Bull v. Ward (32 L. T. Rep. N. S. 170), an informa- tion under the Town Police Clauses Act,, 1S17 (10 & 11 Vict. c. 89, a. 28), again>t' B., at the Spalding petty sessions, for obstructing the thoroughfare. B. was the o.vuer of an auction caravan, which he took round the country. G-enerally it was placed in the market place, and toll was paid to the persons ttp, pointed for its receipt, namely, to the Improvem nt Commissioners. The actual obstruction in the pre- sent instance was caused by a number of people assembling iu front of the caravan during the sales. The can van itself was about a yard distant from the street. Thejustices convi ted him of an oHence within the meaning of sect. 28. on the ground that his right did not authorise the obstruction with which he was charged. This se tion enacts that any person who, by means 01 any fart or carriage, wil- fully interrupts any public i rousing, or wilfully causes any obstruction in any thoroughfare hall be liable to a certain penalty. There are other provisions, hut this appears to be theonly part of the section that has reference to the charge made. The court held that no olfenco within the words of the section had been committed. Looking at the question as a purely legal one, we think the opinion of the Court of Queen's Bench very debatable. By a rigid and strict rule of interpretation the defendant was not liable; bv the application of the sufficiently well recognised principle that everyone is liiible for the dsre t and natural consequences of his own acts, ho undoubtedly liable. On the whole, however, it is more satisfactory to find a strict rule of interpretation adopted, espe :ially in a case where a looser construc- tion of the section might work a hardship.

SHAW THE LIFE GUARDSMAN AT WATERLOO. Of all the heroes of Waterloo, Shaw, the pugilist Life Guardsmen, towers above them all. The line of cavalry," says John Scott, at the commencement of the engagement, wai drawn up a lill,le in the rear of the eminence on which our infantry was arrayed they could not in this situation see lUll It of the battle, but the shot and shell flow thi k among them, which they were compelled to sustain without moving." Nothing tries a gallaut spirit more than this. Shaw wns hit and wounded in the breast; his officer de- sired him to fall out. "Please God," says this fine fellow, I shan't leave my colours yet." shortly after orders came down that the cavalry should ad- vance; the whole line moved forward to the top of the hill. Here they saw our artillerymen running from their guns, attacked by heavy masses of Freii, h dragoons. It was agreed amongst ourselves," says a private to Scott, that when we began to gallop, we would give three t-heers, but ours was not very regular cheering, though we made noise enough. Shaw was fighting seven or eight houns, dealing de' structi >n to all around him at one time be was at- tacked by six ot the French Imperial Guards, four o- whom he killed, but at last fell by the remaining twof A comrade, who was by his side a great part of the day, noticed one particular cut, which is worth re- cording. As he was getting down the rising ground into the hollow roar), a cuirassier waited and gave point at him. Shaw parried and thrust, and before the Frenchman recovered, cut him right through his brass helmet to the chin, and his tace fell off him like a bit of apple." Shaw, says Scott, carried death to every one against whom he rode he is t-aid to have killed a number of cuiras-iers sufficient to make a show against the list of slain furnished for any of Homer's heroes. His death was occasioned rather by loss of blood from many cuts than the magnitude of any one; he had been riding about fighting the whole of the day with his body streaming, and at night he died on aheap of refuse on whiihhe lay. TREASURE TROVE.—The leases of the greater part of the propetly on the east side of High-street, S'loreditch, {having 'rjoeutl.y elapsed, nearly the whole of the shops between Bithnal-green-road and the parish church are about to be pullod dowu and lebuilt. Or, Siturday, while the workmen were en- Raged in exoavatiug the foundations of the shop known as the Boouet Box," an immense ohest 6 feet long Hi wide and 3 deep, was discovered buried at a considerable depth from the surface, in that part which has not hitherto been built upon. It was with difficulty the chest was removed, the weight beiug vory great. On beiug opened it was found to contain a large quantity of church plate, consisting, among other things, of a oiborium, two silver pyxes, an antique chalice, an elaborately- chased aanctuary-iamp of great size, and a number of articles, the exact nses of whioh have not yet beeu ascertained.

ABORIGINAL LEGS.—A discovery has lately been mtde on an island in the Missillllipi which shows that the aborigines of America were not wholly unac- quainted with mecha itoal surgery, but occasionally wore wooden leg? when deprived of their natural limhs. In a subtem.ueau one hewn out of a huge solid rock, which had undoubtedly been made thousands of years ago," was found, among several other remarkable f.ctioles, a skull as brown as a polished walnut, perfect in every respect, and of ex- traordinary size, also an almost complete skeleton with a wooden leg. Tho fastenings of the artifioal limb consisted of a petrified leather and bronze buckles. The original reg appears to hjirfp-been re- SQinovod half way between theatli and kliee.
