The forma tion of the society had indeed effected what had been de e:Titled by one of their presidents as making agriculture imhionable. They had turned the attention of tenant farmers to the improvement of the soil ; but neverthelms there was lII*OII to do ; for unless the landlords gave their co-opmation it could not be expected that the formal would take any 'rety gnat interest in the matter. The society had been a great benefit to the country at large; and so long as it continued to have the support of the tenant fanners, and that of such gentlemen as were present that day, he did not doubt that it would centinue to prosper. After a few words from the Hon. R. H. Clive, M.P., with regard to the agricultural college of Cirencester and its services to the cause the chairman acknowledged the coin ' pliment which had been paid him, and the proceedings then closed. iti.; — • it Ameriss.

Daniel O'Connell was the eldest son of Morgan O'Connell, of Carhen, Esq., and of Catherine, sister of the O'Mullane, of Whitechurch, in the county of Cork, a most respectable and ancient Irish family. lie was born at Car hen, a'eout a mile from the pr.sent post town of Cahirciveen, in the county of Kerry. His birth occurred on the 6th of August, 1775—a yeas rendered memorable by the commence ment of the contest between England and her American cola nine. In this place his childhood end boyhood were passed—with the elioeption of protracted visits to Derrynane, the seat d hie e'r's eldest brother, Maurice O'Connell, who being abildless himself, adopted his nephews, Daniel and Maurice, and took, in a great measure, the charge of their education upon himself. A pose old hedge•chooloms. ter, named David Mahoney, was the first person who taught Daniel O'Connell his letters. Happening, upon one of his rounds in quest of charitable assistance, to call at Carhen house, he took young "Dan," then four years old, upon his lap, and was playing with him, when perceiving that the child's hair, which was long, had got couch tangled, he took out a box-comb, and combed it thoroughly %About hurting him; in gratitude fee which the child readily con sented to learn his letters from the old man, and perfectly and permanently mastered the whole alphabet in an hour end a half. At the age of thirteen he wan sent to the school of the Rev. Mr. Reerington, the first held by a catholic priest since the pedal laws. At the end of a year his uncle Maurice took lin and his brother from this school, and sent them to the senticent. lie proceeded from Dover to Ostend, and at the farmer place Mr. O'Connell's first acquaintance with Eng land was marked by a ducking in the surf, the boat having capsized through some mismanagement in beaching her. Arriving at Liege, he was found to have passed the ago when bop could be admitted as students; and was therefore obliged to return to Louvain, to await instructions from home. While thus detained, Maurice gave himself up to boyish amusements, but Daniel, prompted by his nobler instincts, entered as a volunteer in one of the halls at Louvain, end ere the arrival of letters from home, had risen to • high place in a clam et 120 boys. They were ordered to St.Omer's, where they remained a year, when they removed to the Eng lish college of Douay for some months. At St. Omer'e Daniel rose to the first place in all the classes. Dr. Stapylton, pre sident of the college there, writing to his uncle, made the following almost prophetical remark : " With respect to the elder Daniel, I have but one sentence to write about him, and that is, that I never was so much mistaken in my life as I shall be, unless he be destined to make a remarkable figure in society." On the 21st December, 1793, the day the unfortunate Louis was beheaded at Paris, the brothers set out In s voi tore for Calais. As soon as they got into the English pac ket boat, they eagerly tore out of their raps the tricolor cockade, which the commonest regard for personal safety had made indispensable at that time in France. Mr. O'Connell has often said that the horrors of the French re volution made him very nearly a tory in heart. In this state of mind he became a law-student in Lincoln's inn, in the year 1794. He attended Hardy's trial with strong pre judice against the accused, and sympathy with Eldon as the vindicator of law and social order. In the progress of the trial, however, he was fully converted, and confirmed in his natural detestation of tyranny and in his desire to resist it. The sports in which he moat delighted at this time were fish ing and hare-hunting. His eagerness in the latter amuse moat nearly cost him his life in 1798. He remained at a peasant's house in wet clothes, and got cold, which ended in a violent typhus fever. In the delirium of the crisis, which I threatened a fatal issue, he was constantly heard repeating She following lines from the tragedy of " D,suglas:" Thinailien I die • no tongue shall speak or me : Sew noble spirits, Judging by themselves, May yet conjecture what I might hare proved ; And think life only wanting tomy tame; During the rebellion Mr. O'Connell served as a private la the " Lawyers' Artillery." His worries wee signalised by several de ed s of bravery and humanity. 1 Mr. O'Connell's first publie effort as an orator was a epee* /Ile=the Union. This was a bold step in a young men. reigned over the land—even protestant" who me 'situated any national feeling fell under the ban of a bloody 1 intolerance. Undeterred by at considerations of this catholice kind, he et delivered his maiden speech a meeting of this k in d Dublin, assembled in the Royal Exchange on the 13th January, 1800, to petition against the Union. The meeting wu interrupted by a visit from the then redoubled Major Sire, with his red coats. The calamitous occurrences of 1803 connected with " Emmett's rebellion," found Mr. O'Connell already in good practice as a lawy er. He was called on to seem in the " Lawyers' Infantry,' when a deep impression was made on his mind ey the wanton cruelty which an exasperated citizen soldiery are often tog ready to commit, of the tendency that a man has " when he has arms in his hands, to be a roffisn." In 180-1 the " Catholic Board" was dissolved by a govern ment proclamation ; but it wan revived again under the name of the "Catholic Committee." The first regularly reported debate of the Catholic body is to be found in the Dublin newspapers of January. mos. They met in what was long after called the " Exhibition House," in Willem-street; sobsequeutly, and still, the corporation house of assembly. It was they that Mr. O'Connell commenced his more active exertions for Catholic emancipation, in which he persevered amidst the greatest discieusgements, arising chiefly from the divisions and servility of the Catholic' themselves. Many of oar readers will recollect Mr. Shell's graphic description of the everyday life of the agitator about this time—of his early vigils and devotions, his dimly-lighted study, his beetle among the attorneys, his hurrying to the Four Courts, his forensic dieplays,. and kis afternoon exhibitions, when the man of legal points, formal precedents, and abstruse ergo meets was transformed into a fearless rolling agitator, de claiming in a popular meeting, playing with a meter's hand, now on the laughing faculties, and anon, on the deepest sympathies and passions of hie auditory, depicting with ter rible vividness the wrongs of his country, and launching startling denunciations against her oppressors. In • letter to Lord Shrewsbury, published in 1842, Mr. O'Connell himself gives the fallowing scarcely exaggerated account of his labours : For more than twenty years before emancipation the burden of the canoe was thrown upon me. I had to arrange the meetings—to prepare resolution—to furnish replies to He ceneeptesdeisse—to ti•Olill• tie else ef sash preen itirjrn of gunedeel pieveasen—de aria Its towilid—to sra 11 .11-moo control thwykkon at the in fesimestary—to mil Ike sisals and lamb= of ells law—fin via against maleglki otreochery—onli mt A Ilmm te at every pall, the *sorrel and nushitodhunis owl-1 = il it the cause.

I sentation. The state prosecutions cannot be defended, we think, on constitutional grounds, or on principles of sound policy. But i it must be stinaitted that they were eminently sucoeseful. They broke the heart of the agitation. From the moment of imprisonment, Mr. O'Connell was an altered man. lieseemed to see and feel that "the splendid phantom" was an lonia /shwa that was very near leading him to ruin. The idle pageant in the Rotund°, the volunteer uniform, the crown cap, the solemn pledges, were all endured for the sake of consistency, and to prevent Mr. Smith O'Brien and the young Inlanders from running away with his well earned glory. He was too glad when the whigs same into power again to get decently out of the movement. Bed to do so with any advantage it was necessary to crush young ballad, who prepared for agitation with a view to talteder gads, which Mr. O'Connell thought pernicious.

AORICVLTURAL PROSPECT9.—A correspondent, who hu been travelling in the principality, says "Though the crops have, generally speaki,,g, been retarded by the cold and =genial spring, every species of crop, now that the weather bas assumed a warm aspect, promises well. The wheat and barley plants, especially in Carroartln-nshire and Glaniorganshire, present a strong and healthy ro , peet ; and, judging from present appearances, a full average crap may be anticipated. By reason of the difficulty experienced in procuring seed, a very small portion of the land has received the potato plant. Oats are not so forward as could be wished, yet the plant appears strong and healthy. In some parts, especially in the mire mountainous districts, the fanners complain of the want of grass, ant great numbers ' are necessitated to purchase hay to fodder their stock. Distress has been less felt in Wales than in any other part of the United Kingdom. Numbers of destitute Trish are per. ambulating even the least frequented part of this country, and numbers have found employment either on the South Wales Railway now in course of construction, or in other nvirenita IRELAND. DUBLIN, MAT 22. The remains of the late viceroy were conveyed yes terday to their last resting place. The day was very fine and the procession imposing, less from the mili tary pomp than the regret which pervaded hundreds of thousands on beholding the remains of a well beloved Irish noble transferred to the grave almost in the commencement of his beneficent career. All the arrangements were perfect, and carried out with the greatest regularity. At a quarter to three the caval cade moved slowly from the Chapel Royal, the bands of the 4th and 13th Light Dragoons and 17th Lancers playing alternately the mournful " March in Saul," and other funereal strains. At four o'clock the railway terminus was reached, where the car riages, only containing the Mends of the departed viceroy, the officers of the household and of the Lord Mayor were admitted. The coffin having been transferred to a close hearse, was placed on a railway carriage, preceded by five mourning coaches containing his lordship's brother, Lord de Manley, Lord Duncannon, Hon. F. and S. Ponsonby, and a few other friends of the late Earl, when the military presented arms, and the train departed. On the am val at the station, the Park guns fired 66 rounds, the number of his Excellency's years. The royal standards at the barracks and magazines were half lowered—a tribute of respect also rendered by all the ships on the river. As the procession passed down the quays, the little children of the orphan schools of Michael's and John's parishes stood before the church with scarfs and wands—a simple sight, which touched many a hard heart. We turn from this mournful spectacle to a cheering topic. We bear nothing now of Skibbereen. All is quiet there, where all before was confusion and wailing. The times have turned in its favour, and by the muni ficent aid extended from England, the generous exertions of the relief committee, and the adoption of sanitary measures, the pestilence has been arrested. Food is more plentiful, or, rather, less scarce ; and fever having had his sweep, rests from his destructive labours. Skibbereen, in fact, is now comfortable com pared with other districts. Much has been attributed to the disinfecting measures which, though taken up late, hare proved of the utmost value. In Belfast, at tke other extremity of the island, a permanent pre caution against the effects of filth is practically illus trated on this day. Its baths and wash-houses are opened for the public use while I write. As in all useful reforms the liberality of the Belfast citizens is proudly pre-eminent ; they do not wish " God speed " to a work of humanity, they give the impulse, and leave to others the vie tejurat. The Irish presbyterian church has undergone a slight change. According to the Monaghan Standard, the general assembly has been distributed into five sub-synods; namely, Belfast, containing 9 presby teries and 140 congregations; Derry, 8 presbyteries and 100 congregations; Dublin, 6 presbyteries and 67 congregations; Ballymena and Coleraine, 8 pres byteries and 92 congregations ; and Arm agh and Monaghan, 9 presbyteries and 73 congregations. It is announced this evening that Lord Clarendon will arrive at the Castle of Dublin on Wednesday next ; a privy council is noticed to assemble on that dty, and his lordship will be immediately sworn into OffiCe.

TEE TRIPLE MORDIi; AT ErEFIELD.—On Saturday, the two men, M'Kabe and Reid, now in custody, were mu mined at Dewsbury, charge.d with the murder of Mr. Wraith, his wife, and servant. Some of the former evidence having been re-heard, H. J. Watkinson sworn Is a surgeon at Mirfield. Oa Wednesday, the 12th lost., went to the house cf the late Mr. Wraith, about ten minutes past two. Saw the body of a female laid on the back on the floor. The skull was broken, and a portion of the brain was Nattered on the wall and on the floor. There was also much blood goat where she lay. The body was that of Caroline Ellis, mks. I knew very well. Blood was sprinkled on the wall NOM to where she lay, for about a yard and • quarter kinh. In the passage saw the body of an elderly temale, ate dead, Near the head there was a deal of blood. Is the parlour saw the dead body of James Wraith. There wee a quantity of blood about the head. All the bodies were warm—and life bad been extinct but a short time ; from half en hour to three quarters. The witness then stated that he afterwards made • more minute examination of the bodies, and found the shall of each frac tured, and the throat of each cut. The bruises on the heads had evidently been inflicted by a blunt instrument ; and the throats cat with a sharp instrument. In the case of Mr. Wraith it appeared as if the attempt to cut the throat had been made with an instrument not very sharp, but finished afterwards with • sharp one. In his opinion sack case of ; death had been produced by the blows on the bee end head. The throats had been cut after the bodies woe deed, ar ve nearly so ; for the blood had not flowed in atea the severed arteries. None of the these esuid possibility have committed suicide, fan the mi ner and cause from which death bad in each owe occurred. The bodies were stripped in the place where they were first found ; and when that of Caroline Ellis was stripped, it was found that one of her garters was missing : The other garter was taken off by one Betty Sheard, and given to me. I have bad it in my possession ever since, and now produce it. Know the house where the prisoner M'Kabe lives. Went there in the afternoon of Saturday the lath, along with constables Whittaker and Leadbeater ; assisted to make a search; was shown a box by prisoner's wife, who said it was their box. Found in the box a pair of stocking feet, and part of a garter. The garter I took possession of, and tare had it ever since; I now produce it. In my opinion it corresponds with the garter that was taken from the body of the deceased, Caroline Ellis; it is of the same description of fabric, and the wear of each appears to be about the same. Several witnesses proved that prisoners, M'Kabe and Reid, were in the neighbourhood on the day of the murder. They were selling earthenware, and nothing unusual was noticed in their appearance. They were not in company, but both went down • lane leading to the house of the murdered family.—John Barker Lives at Lee Green, about a quarter of a mile from Mr. Wraith's. On Wednesday week had two " warps out " in a field adjoining Mr. Wraith's field. I was in this field at different times from nine o'clock till twelve. At the latter hour, I looked up into " Matheralleld hoyle," and saw it threatened for rain, and wusfraid it would catch me. I therefore took the warps in;• and while engaged with the last, I heard a kind of a shout, or a " shrike." I thought at the time it was front Mr. Albrecht's scholars, in a school in the neighbourhood.—Mr. Watkinson was here recalled, to produce the two garters before deposed to. They were submitted to the examination of two gentlemen to court ; and the following evidence was the result :—Joshua Ellis, of the firm of 'James Ellis and Son, Botley Carr : Have ex amined the one garter, and the p art of another garter, now produced, and am of opinion that they are neitberof the same material nor the same make. They arc neither of the same wool nor the same spinning. In this opqiion I am confirmed by Mr. Mathew Hale, merchant and manufacturer of Dews ' bury. A conference now took place on the bench, which the prisoner M'Kebe interrupted, by asking: " Clentlemeo, would you allow me to speak a word or two ? "—Mr. Ingham, the chairman : " No, don't ; I would recommend you not."—Prisoner " Very well." The magistrates re tired for a time ; and while they were absent, the prisoners had a little refreshment in the dock. kl'Kabe divided his with his fellow-prisoner, and also with the constable. On the magistrates' return, the chairman, addressing the pri soners, seid, " Muheel M'Kabe, and Patrick Reid, you will be remanded fur • week, when the examination will be continued."

There is no prospect of any opposition at present. The country gentlemen round Derby ascounteaance a contest, but the borough toriet would very much like to find a can. didate willing to dispute the election of a liberal. The ultra-dissenters talk of withholding that votes, and they have even gone so far as to endeavour to obtain a candidate for the hustings, but have not succeeded. The anti-state church party numbers about 80 votes. BERKSHIRE. ..... REPUESENTATION or REaDINO.

ADAPTATION OP Gurs-COTTON 10 THE PURPOSES OP Bturrixo.—During the put weekvariou experiments hare been made along the line of the works of the Stour Valley Railway, now in wane of construction In Birminghans, with the view of testing the efficacy of gun-cotton for blast ing. The experiments were made under the direction of an agent ef Mews. Hall and Co., of London, to whorls the right of using Profaner Schonbein's patent in England has been conceded. The spot where the fleet experiment took place was in a heading forty feet from the surface, the rock consisting of compacted Land, somewhat difficult of azure tion ; but from its peculiar character not favourable to the action of the cotton. With the view to ascertain the com parative powers of the cotton and the powder, shot-holes were formed in opposite headings, as nearly u possible alike in their depth and situation. Into one of these apertures a charge of gunpowder, weighing 50 ounces, was placed, and in the other 8 ounces of cotton; the arrangements having been completed, the cotton was fired, and a sharp report, accompanied by no perceptible vibration, and no smoke (excepting that train the fuel which had been introduced at the end of the cotton, whi•zb was enclosed in a pasteboard case) followed. The powder, of course, canoed the usual noise, smoke, and vib: titian ; here the powder dis lodged the greater quantity of sand. A second and third experiment were made at an open tutting in another part of the works, and the results were MOTE satisfactorily and ruceesifully tested. Here, however, the soil was not so compnet. Into holes 5 feet 6 intim deep, charges of 50 ox. of powder to 10 on. of cotton were placed. In the case of the cotton, the rock wart heaved at once from its bed almost in one compact pass, whilst the powder seemed to shake ani disarrange the soil so far as its action extended. So far the experiments were considered to be in favour of the powder in its application to this description of blasting, inasmuch as although the cotton upheaved an im mense mess, it was net broken up into the conveniently res movable portions like those dislodged by the powder. In the third experiment, also in the open tutting, charges of 62 os. of gunpowder and 15 oz. of cotton were used, being a trifle more than a proportion of four to one. Here the advantages were much in favour of the cotton. The fourth experiment was tried in a tunnel with charges of 62i oz. of powder to 13 or. ef cotton, the latter being placed in the hole loose ; the result was in favour of the powder, which was placed a greater depth in the hole than the cotton. The contractors of the Stour Valley lice have resolved on blasting a sunders able portion of their town tunnelling with cotton, in order to thoroughly test the amount of its utility. CENTRAL MILITARY DEPOT AT HANDSWORTII, NEAP litemirromist.—lt appears that government have, for the present, abandoned the idea of erecting the greet central barracks at Handsworth, as the land purchased with that intention has been let to yearly tenants.

CAYBILIDOI COUNTY ELICTION.—A requisition from the freeholders having been presented to Lord John Manners, with which his lordship has complied, settles, we believe, the stair for the county as quietly and as snugly u my Lord Hardaicke and the Duke of Rutland could wish. The blare members will, therefore, no doubt, be Mr. Eliot Yorke, Mr. Allis, and, instead of the present member, Mr. Raton, who is labouring under a most distressing malady Lord John Manners; being the first return of a member, or nominee, of the Rutland family to this town or county since the passing of the Reform Act, previous to whi ch time the noble duke's influence was paramount. There can be no doubt that the overpowering influence of the county, at the ensuing election, would have been in favour of our kisser respected representative, Mr. Townley, if be would have consented to come forward.—Cambridge Independent Prom . f Tao •VTICIPATID COIREIPT 10/ Tn "Wiwi Dm- SION Of *it (maw la, it swam sot t• take phew Lord Costa% i l ai r ie tati ea midrib to the demon =it tbe "!todeft ase with voy own,' yet OM tbe bey 110-19p111•111“ of Mr. Freya* ankle ebobat thot ". = Mbla a baba ia white samb boarrosa esalla. would s ettebalrb by • Mottles exams ell Maria' wide eheatesteme anabtod with *lea ma having recanate bmy ItoDy, forbid no at Shit asawst to abb.".
