SATURDA Y, JANUARY 27, 1855. 



MEETINGS FOR THE ENSUING WEEK. 

 Thursday, Feb. 1—AKricultural Imp. Society of Ireland. 



. 



The Act for providing a metropolitan market in 

 place of Smithfield directed the issuing of a commis- 

 sion to undertake its execution. If this had not 

 been done by the u Mayor, Aldermen, and Commons" 

 of the City of London, it would have become lawful 

 for Her Majesty to issue this commission. In either 

 case the Act declares that unless the market for the 

 provision of which it is passed be declared open 

 within three years and six months from the date of 

 its enactment, the powers of the commission so 

 issued, and all other powers conferred, shall 

 cease and be void. That period ceases on the 

 1st of March ; and, although the declaration in ques- 

 tion was not published in last night's Gazette, yet 

 next Tuesday's edition will be still within the 

 period named, and no doubt the requisite announce- 

 ment will appear in it, in order to keep within the 

 law. The 10th section of the Act enables such a 

 declaration, although the actual opening of the place 

 should be postponed beyond the date of the declara- 

 tion in question. 



We are informed that the new market place in 

 Copenhagen Fields will not be opened for use for 

 at least a fortnight. Excepting the places for calves 



and pigs the arrangements are already complete. 



— 



We are exceedingly glad to find that the dif- 

 ferences arising out of the discussion at Tiptree, in 

 reference to Mr. Tetter's Hay or Grass crop (as 

 people choose to take it), are losing their personal 

 character ; and that the real question at issue— the 

 possibility of producing profitably those prodigious 

 growths of which My re Mill and Cunning Park 

 afford the instances — is at length separating itself, as 

 it ought long ago to have done. The subject is on 

 the list of the London Farmers' Club, for discussion 

 at their meeting in March, and the truth will, we 

 hope, be then related by eye witnesses, so that, 

 whatever it may prove to be, it shall be placed beyond 

 dispute. 



Mr. Telfer's last letter, to which we shall again
