ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY OF ENGLAND. . The Grand Annual Show of the above Society, which has been so judiciously held this year at Leicester, may be considered as one of the most successful on record, 96,653 persons having paid £6,740 Is 5d for admission. The field trials of tillage implements lasted a week, under scorching weather all the time, and watched by large numbers of agricultural and other spectators. The horsedrawn ploughs have been through the most severe ordeal, that they, have ever known. The judges have taken the greatest possible care and pains, intently watching every furrow, measuring and testing the work with rule, square, and level, clearing away the cut soil for an examination of the unmoved bottom, taking by draft -dynamometer the motive-power required to draw each implement, and finally inspecting the parts and construction of each selected plough. And, moreover, the condition of the ground has been such that no second-rate tool could possibly gloss over a piece of work that might be pleasing to the eye, but wanting in soundness of execution. * The result of the preliminary, second, and final trials has been to give Messrs James and Frederick Howard, of Bedford, the lion's share of the honours; Messrs Ransomes and Sims, of Ipswich, a second place; and Hornsby and Sons, of Grantham, a third place, but considerably lower down in the scale of awards; whilst other makers are commended or nowhere. — Telegraph.

Collis Browne was the discoverer of Chlorodyne; that they prescribe it largely, and mean no other than Dr. Browne's.— See Times, July 12, 1864.

Dr Lowe, Medical Missionary in India reports ("Dec. 1865) that in nearly every cast of Cholera in which Dr J. Collis Browne's Chlorodyne was administered, the patient recovered.
