PARlS.'Wensr,:uAr, f 30 p m. The present Minister of the Interior, M. ltecurt, is showing some disposition to correct the flagrant abuses practised by his predecessor, M. Ledru- Roll in. Among the doings of the latter gentleman during his provisional ministry, one of the most notable wa, the notninatioa of an individual named Ilonniss, one of the mo-t furious orators of Illanqui's club, to be Prefect of the department of La (lard. M. Recurt has very unceremoniously dislodged this per son, by a telegraphic despatch, dated the 19th, which announced simply that M.'llouret was nominated pro visional Prefect, and that Bunnies was dismissed. It appears that the announcement of M. Elias Regnault to be Chief Secretary of the Prefecture of Police has been unfounded, or at least premature. Yesterday a waggon was stopped at the barrier, loaded with six barn Is of gunpowder. In the house to which these were addressed a search being imme diately made, forty-four cases of muskets were found. The number of troops of all arms now in Paris is 45,000.

The alarming rep:rts that were current yesterday at the ,leis Bourbon were not repeated to-day. The report of the resignation of the Executive Commission has °sued wholly to be credited. The number of troops that guard the Chamber was to-day reduced to the ordinary number. The sitting was opened at one o'clock. It commenced with the presentation of a host of petitions and propositions of no geeeral interest. when an untzpected incident arose, which excited much attention. The Peet:weer announced that he bad received a letter from the Prince de Joinville and the Duc d'Aumale, and another from the Duc de Nemours, which he proposed to refer to the committee of the decree as to Louis Philippe and his family. A great number of Voices: Read! read! (Lively curiosity was excited in all parts of the Assembly.) The Pueet neer then read the following letters, received from the Dukes of Nemours and Aumale and the Prince de Joinville: Ilkfty 19, 1849, Y. le President, —The public journals inform us of a projected decree to exclude us altogether front France. The RCatimeuts with which that project inepirea us removes the re-erve which till now we had imposed upon ourselves. Wc had hoped that this reserve, en tirely patriotic, would have ben appreciated. The Assembly met ; it proceeded, in Ito independence and its sovereignty, to vote the new constitution, and we did not with in the most of its deliberations to occupy it with the expremion of our personal wishes. We considered that, in quitting Algiers at the fleet appeal to oar pats iottom, we hatinthed to the country a solemn Kea of our firm intention not to disunite France, as we had t stifled the respect with which we accented the appeal made to the nation. We flitter ourselves, thereicre, that the country cannot think of repelling us who hove always loyally and faithfully wry"! it, In our professions, whether naval or military. The pr. ject of the decree, however, showy that some have thought otherwise, and the moment chosen to produce it constitutes, besides, an assimilation which we cannot accept. Exempt Irsro all personal ambition, we protist, before the repro. tentative. of the tuition, against a meiwure from which a knowledge of our previous services and our sentiments should have guaranteed ws. Deign, Sir, to place that letter beore the National Aasembly, sad receive the liallranCe of our high consideration. (signed) FRANCON D'ORLRAIIR. lions, o'Onuties.

No observation being made on this incident— M. WALIMCK ROE: VE4I; prevented his repot on the pro positien of M. BILL& ULT for an investigation into the con dition of the working c.asses. The report admits that the inquiry is practicable; that these classes, expiated at all tines to suffering., are now particularly so frost temporary teems. The report of the committee aims at explaining whet are the chiel CWI.O• of the prevailing distress. The Chamber remiss' d that the author of the proposition slisuld develop it to-morrow in the Assembly. The committee on foreign affairs by M. Drouyn de I lluys, proroed to recomm, nd to the Executive Commission, to continue to follow a course conformable to the unanimous wishes of the Assembly, which it declared to be A fraternal agreement with Germary.

A die usstou the n took place on a decree of the gowns. meet, which eppited difIC:COt sums for different kinds of work bur the no . ional worshops ; which decree was voted, with some modifications, by the committee charged with its examination. The sitting was terminated at 4 o'clock. ITALY. The Phdniontese Gov , tte of the 20th quotes a bulletin of the 18th, anuouncing that the lire was opened spinet Peschiera on that day. The principal Week was directed against the outworks of Fort 31andells ; the batteries established on the pro longa.ions ef the sides began to weak. n its defen”es with their fire. The fortress answered the tire vigorously, but without effect. The same paper quotes a letter from Modena, relating the fol "log particulars : On the evening of the 14th, a' numerous public being ant mbled in the theatre, Sig. Creme, who had emigrated in 1831, appeared after the first act in the royal box, with two standards, one bearing the arms of Savoy, and the other the inscrip ban : Ile Carlo Albert() ! Ho then after a *bort speech proposed the following plain question, "Rill you have Charles Albert for your King, yes or All answered, "Yea! yes!" "Then," said he, "let us go and hoist these two standards upon the ex ducal palace. Let the band precede us, and the public follow." The whole theatre soon was empty; the banners were hoisted amid loud acclamations, and the town illuminated. ! Letters from Venice of the 13th say— An engagement has taken place near the Piave. Udine ut been r e t a k en by the Italians. A retreat of General errari, the thy before yesterday, before a more power lul Austrian force, with more artillery, has alarmed the inhabitants of l'adua, Treviso, Inestre, and Venice. Still the Italian trcops increase. Yesterday a Srious :Raps:lent took place, but PS yet, we know no par. eo tut. Victory, however, has declared for us, as A emus are in our power ; cannon were heard, ar.d from the tower of S!. Mare the firing and smoke could be seen. To-day some Neap limn and Pontific II troops will he coneeyel by railway to Tn vies. The Austrian are mid at Pole. Trey would set sail for Vet.ice, but are looked after by the French, English, and Venetian ship. In the aittit.g of the Chamber of •Turin, of the 19th, the minister declared that th.• King had not had the intention a neither would negotiate so long os a single Austrian re mained in Italy. The Citntemporanen of Rome of the 18th sly.: It is reported that Count Lutsow, the Austrian ambles starlet, boasted, on quitting Rome, that he had placed the Pontifical government in great difficulty, from which it could not escape. Others have held the same language, but Italy, in abandoning the alliance of princes, will adopt a more power ful alliance, that of the people, anti amongst them of a people whose youth ►re eager fur fight and thirsting to wash out the stain of Waterloo. Who, then, can atop the torrent ? To the sovereign who would alarm us with her fleet, nay '• Ire land !" To thine who menace us with hordte of Fruesians or Cossack•, say "Germany, or Poland!" The Italian people know•: how to reconquer, and it will:reconquir its nationality. The Austrian papers announce from Innspruck, May 17, that Treviso had been taken on the 12th. We pee yesterday, from the Italian papers, news from Treviso up to the 14th, at noon, at which time it still held out successfully against the Austrians, who had retired. The In h' of Palermo of May 10 says : A demonstration having been made against the Minister, he has tendered his resignation. which has been accepted by the President. The National Gaard has sent en address to the President, expressing their regret ut this step. The same journal, of the 11th, says: The Professor Francesco Deluca de Mesains has been appointed Minister of Grace and Justice. The Mill NW. eerie is appointed Minster of the Interior and Police. A message of the President to the Chamber, proposes to name a captain fustian for the city of Palermo. The Chamber has voted this unanimously.

On Sunday a collision took place between the Prus- sian soldiers stationed in the fortress of Mayenee and the citizens, aided by the Burgher Guard. Six of the Prussian soldiers were killed and about sixty woundt d, whilst on the part of the citizens the numbers killed were four, and about twenty wounded. The soldiers, who had been for some time annoyed by the abuse which they heard on all sides of the present King of l'russia, becoming excited by drink, drew their swords, and attempted to take possession of the Caserte of the Burgher Guard. It was in this attempt that the coeflict occurred, and the milli was the defeat of the l'eussian soldiers, who had to fly to their barracks. The governor, General Von Hum, knowing that the inhabitants are mostly republicans, and apprehensive of their committing ex cesses, issued, at ten o'clock on Sunday night, by beat of drum and torch-light, a proclamation de claring the town of Mayenee in a state of siege, and threatening to bombard it in case the arms of the citizens were not delivered up in two hours. Upon the representation of the burgomaster and other authorities, the governor we, subsequently in duced to postpone the period fixed for bombardment till 12 o'clock next day ; but he had the railroads stopped. as well as the steam-boats, so that no means were affordad to the citizens of either obtaining aid or of procuring provisions, all the gates being beset by soldiers. Such was the state of things in Mayence on Mon day morning, when the burgomaster had the go vernor's proclamation printed, to which he appended an address, in which he said that it was plainly the interest of all the inhabitants instantly to deliver up their arms at the town-house, and to follow implicitly the commands of the governor, as alone on these con ditions could the miserable condition of the the tows be put an end to. The proclamation and the address produced their desired effect. The citizens saw that they were locked in a town the bombardment of which was inevitable. The Burgher Guard was dis solved ; all the arms delivered nearly at the time prescribed ; and by half-paid one the governor Issued orders which permitted the communication by the railroads and the Rhine to be re-opened. • The state of exasperation prevailing between the Prussian garrison and the people of Mayence, the subjects of the Grand Duke of Hew Darmstadt, con tinues. It was stated at Biebrich (on the Rhine), on Monday last, by a passeager from MaTence that day, that in the course of Monday morning, whilst the siege continued, a citizen, venturing to approach the fortress, was deliberately aimed at by a Prussian soldier from the walls, and shot dead on the spot. ST. JAMES'S BENEVOLENT AStiOCIATION FOR THE PROPAGATION or vita GOAPEL IN FORRION PARTIL—A , meeting of the members and friends of this society was held yesterday, in Willies Rooms, St. James's. The Bishop of London presided, and opened the proceedings by ebserving that the society was the most ancient almoner of the church in dispensing spiritral consolation in different parts of the world. The Church of England was essentially in its nature a missionary society; and the duty of propagating the Gospel being incumbent on the church it was equally the duty of every individual to carry out the principle. Ile considered that by supporting the society they would but show their I gratitude to the great head of the church fur the preserva tion of their natioual privileges while other countries were losing their own; and the same reason increased a hundred fold the obligations of this country to eupixtrt the cause of Christian missions.—Gad Lyttelton moved the first revolution, which was to the effect that the spiritual destitution existing in the colonies, and the increase of emigration from these shores, tailed on the Christians of this country to make increased efforts to obtain for their countrymen in other parts of the world the means of grace. His lordship dwelt upon the present condition of the colonies with respect to religious instruction, considering them to have been greatly neglected by this country, in being considered merely as a medium of commercial ad• vantage, which was not the true object for which they should have been established. He alluded particularly to Australia and Ceylon. To the latter place a bishop had recently been sent out ; but up to that time it had been annexed to the enormous diocese of Madre.. The North American posses sions of this oountry had also been most unjuuly treated, the government having for a series of years refused the este. elishment of a bishopric there, notwithstanding the urgent solicitations which were made for that object. With regard to the financial condition of the society, he was hippy to say that though its income had not been increased its ex penses had been brought to some extent within the amount. --The Rev. J. Anderson seconded the resolution, which was a3opted unanimously.—The Bishop of Madras proposed the next resolution, which was to the effect that this country, being calle I on to head dominion over 120,000.000 of heathen idolaters, is hound to use its utmost exertion to disseminate among them the faith of the Gospel. His lord ship d. scribed the mode of life pursued by the Muasulman population of India to be most degrading, profligate, and revolting to Christian feeling; and why was such the case ? Because this country did little or nothing to correct the evil. Contrasted with the heathen population the native Christians present d a picture which WAS truly a matter of congratula- ' tion ; and this was mainly attributable to the labours of the society—which only need d increased means to enable it to render increased blessings. At prevent they were only ena bled to employ 22 missionaries fur the whole of southern Indic —Sir J. Kirkland seconded the resolution, which was also carried ; as well as another revolution calling on the in habitants of the parish to support th, society, towards which a collection was made at the doing. DEMONSTRATION AT BRADFOItD.—On Tuts lay evening a preconcerted demonstration of the chartist forces in that neighbourhood was made at Bradford. by the assembling of a very large meeting of the unemployed opera. tiers anduthers, in Peekover's Walk, in the eastern suburbs of the town. Shortly before six o'clock, the hour appointed, considerable bodieaof men marched into the town from Bow ling, Ilvrton, White Abbey, and the adjacent districts. They marched in a sort of military array, with tri-colour flags, and grey n banners. One body had a black flag edged with white fringe ; another had a band of music ; a third had a flag inscribed "Down with the Aristocracy;" and in the several processions might be seen many men bearing long spears, and pikes, and weapons resembling the ancient battle-axe. It was estimated that upwards of 12,000 per. sons were assembled. Each of the speakers addressed the meeting as " Brother Guards." John Shaw, of Leeds, having spoken in a declamatory style, Mr. Lizht owlet delivered a violent address, recommending the employment of physical force as the only means of ac complishing their ob,tet.—Aftcr several ether speeches of a similar character, three cheers were given for the national guard, and the several sections left the ground as they at , riv.d, in military array, a little before nine o'clock. TIIE IRISH BRIGADE IN AMERICA.—Our Irish citizens haver been for some time past engaged in holding me. rings, collecting money, and enrolling volunteers for an Irish brigade, which, we are told, will assume the tack of liberating Ireland from the dominion of England. How this little pi, cc of business is to be accomplished by this Irish brigade, even if it ware really contemplated to form an armed force of such d, scription here, and even if its formation did not contravene the laws of nations, we have not been able to learn; for England, as low as she is, has yet a little strength, and, besides, possesses a few vessels of war in her seas which this Iri,h brigade would rind it impossible to escape. The fact is, that this tempest in a teapot never did amount to much and never will. A few hundred dollars have been collected, and when it is expended in battle by the Irish brigade, it will be in a sortie on oysters, roast duck, and champagne, in one of the fashionable eatinK.houses, at which no blood w.ll be spilt or lives lost, unless the brigade drink too freely of the ammunition and get to fighting with fisti cuffs among themselves. Loud-mouthed patriotism has always been Ireland's curse. It was by eternally talking of patriotism that O'Connell succeeded so well in leading the Irish wind and collecting the Irish pennies on the promise of procuring repeal, and we are sorry to find parties attempting the same game here.—/Veto York Bored. MADRID, MAY 18. An express arrived the day before yesterday tram Seville, with aceounta of a revolt of tho troops stationed there on the 13th. Shelley, the Captain-General of Andalusia, is said to bave pursued the revolted troops, overaken 'hem, and come to a decisive engagement, in which he entirely routed them, and took a great number of pti.oners. The common soldiers carurid were immediately tried by a drumhead court martial and decimated. The Akers were, at the entreaty of the Infante, placed under arrest till the pleb ore of the government could be known. N would hens of no mercy, and wrote back, so I understand, to shoot them all. Sonic say that Genoa was the only officer taken. Mean while a letter to the lieralito gives the following account of the Mainers: "Sv.vit.LE, MAY 14. " Last night, at half past nine o'clock, a battalion of the regiment (I understand the whole regiment) of Goode lemma raised the cry of rebellion in this city, and marched upon the extramural cavalry barrack. There they were joined by some soldiers of the latter arm, and, after shutting up the officers in the guardroom, the rebels retutned to the town and attacked the l'rincipsl, where the political chid, was stationed. After a quarter of an hour they were bedew beck, many of the revolted soldiers returning to the loyal ran km and affirming that they had been deceived. "The insurgents, commanded by the son of General Omura then got out of the town into the suburbs of Triana, from whence they were dislodged and put to flight by the loyal troops, "The Captain-General Shelley sallied out in pursuit of them with a considerable force. No civilians had joined the revolted. The cry of toe latter was, Viva le Repub lica !' " Ktme of these particulars were announced in the Popular of last night, which appends to them • scandalous libel on Sir Henry . Bulwer, in which tin epithet of insult or outrage is spared, imputing the seduction of the Commandant Ocana to the English minister, and accusing the latter of having employed for this end a mediation, the supposition of which sacrifices the reputation of an honourable family in order to deal a blow at the character, both political and domestic, of our representative. The Senora de °cans, accompanied by her two sisters, repaired yesterday evening to the palace, and throwing themselves at the Queen's ieet they implored with tears and passionate supplications the life of their brother. Some sup pose that thin unfortunate Oliver had already suffered the extreme penalty. In any case his life, if not yet sacrificed, ha. Ittie hope of being spared. Tht• Infanta took re:uqe on board a steamer in the Ouadah quiver, where she paused the night. The d ty of the prommenimenfo was the King's birthday, in coast gutnee of which a besantanes had been held at the Altus tr. A friend of mine bee received a private letter informing him of the death of three artillery officers, two of whom were colonels, one Colonel Aguilar, whe were fired at by the in surgents as they were retiring, attended by their ayadantee, from the levee. The same fri, nd tells me that the greater part of the two revolted battalions escaped. They took the rood to the port of Huelva by Nieblas. No accounts.un which the least reliance can be placed have arrived of the amount of casualtiu. _ The cavalry in the cars mural barrack appears to have amounted only to a small part of the regiment of the In (ante. The i n surgents appear to have attacked the palace as well as the Principal. The other news is of lota importance. Gen. Iriarte and Col. Gwadar& are said to have offered their services at IlAyonne to the Carlin General Elio in favour of Count Moutemolin. A party of insurgents, amounting to some hundreds, who had appeared upon the confines of La Mancha and the Sierra Morena, ns said by the government journals to have surrendered to the command inte general of Jaen. A decree appears in the Gazette giving a more efficient organisation to the preventive service and cwahineerv, the customs having exhibited a great falling off since the aboli tion of the custom-houses of the interior by Salamanca. A second decree prolongs the term given Carina officerffito swear allegiance fir another month. A third cashiers Bri gadier Amettler from the army, for his flight from Badajor. A longish document was sent with the passports of Sir II Bulwer firming the reasons which had actuated the govern mint in takiog that step. These reasons were mostly the very calumnies for which the ministers would have apolo gised till symptoms of dieunh.n appeared among the whiga. lie was accused of conspiring with members of the pro gresista party, who found refuge in his house. These gen tlemen, being invited to the embassy for that purp os e , for mally denied, in the presence of Sir llenry, and all the secretaries and attachis of the emban. , that they had ever given the least reason for inch a charge. Finally, it was said that such was the state of excitement which prevailed among the inhabitants of Madrid and all loyal Spaniards against the British minister, that the government was unable any longer to answer for his safety, and was obliged to send him his passport to calm the agitation which reigned. The following passage from a government paper will, per haps, best express the sense of this document : " It is not only the coincidence that the Commandante Portal, who revolted with his battalion in Seville, enter tains this or that connexion with Mr. Bulwcr—it is not only the fact that this diplomatist has used this or that language in notes passed to the government under critical circum stances—it is not only this correspondence ' and the debate in the English parliament thereupon , with the lights thrown upon the subject by the speeches of English ministers—it is not only that Mr. Bulwer happens to have despatched an officer, attached as it appears to the embassy, with instruc tions to withdraw, as we understand, the moment he ascer tained the unfortunate result of the Seville insurrection—it is not only the fact of two ships, bearing English co lours, freighted most certainly with arms and ammunition, having sailed from Gibraltar, and appeared off Denis, ma. nasurring suspiciously—it is not only what the public says, what in all parts is heard, and from all persons, respecting the belief, almost unanimous, that Mr. Bulwer agitates, abets, end pays the revolution; receives, protects, and hides fugtives, and those sought for by the authorities as revolu tionary penrms—there exist a thousand other motives, a thousand other reasons, for the government having taken the resolution to give Mr. Bulwer hie passports." I learn to-day, from better authority, that the reports which I sent yesterday, as to the success of Shelley at Seville, his pursuit of the insurgents, victory, and the deci mation of the prisoners, are false. The rest of my intelli gence was correct. The accounts of the government puh lished in the Espetgna and Herald() are of course not to be relied upon; and there are no others printed. I hear, how ever, from a private letter received by a friend to-day, from Seville, that although the government troops remained masters of the fiefa, they had by far the worst of the fight ing. It is not true that Portal (or (leans) was the only offic.r ; there were, as I hear, five others with him. The affair broke out in this way 3—Accounts had been received in Madrid of the disaffected f the regiments of Goa datums and the Infante, and in consequence it was deter mined to break the six officers above-mentioned. Portal, getting inf irmation of this, although perfectly well-dis posed previously towards the government, saw no way of saving himself but by joining the revolt, ofd his companions followed his example. It is not true that he has been taken prisoner. His mother contacted a second marriage with General Ocana, who was lately promoted from the rank of brigadier to that of mariscal de campo, through the same influence which the government journals calumniously sup pose to have been employed by the British minister for the purpose of seducing the son from his allegiance. l'Al.Enmo, May IO.—A ateameriafnet on the point of star ins for Malta, and we avail ourselves of that opportunity, the communication with Naples being still uncertain.

A LABOURER KILLED BY A FARMER.—An imbe cile old man, named Barnes, living at Checchi, on the bor ders of Worcestershire, has met his death at the hands of a fernier, named Luke Bull. An inquest was held on Tuesday, at which a great number of witnesses were examined, the chief of whom were Mr. and Mrs. Cole, in whose cottage the violence upon the person of the deceased was committed by Bull. Mrs. Cole deposed that a few evening. before the de ceased's death, Barnes came to her husband's cottage on his way home from work, and brought with him a hedge stoke, which, it appears, he had taken out of a hedge on Mr. Bull s farm. Deceased sat down in Cole's cottage for a few minutes, at the expiration of which he was followed by Mr. Bull, who charged him with taking the stake out of his hedge. Before a reply could be made to the charge it was followed up by Bull seizing the stake and striking Barnes repeatedly with it across the arms, legs, and body. He then left, taking the hedge stake with him.—John Cole, husband to Mrs. Cole, an old man almost blind, corroborated his wife's testimony, and added that the deceased was 50 years old and affected in his intellect —The stake was p:oduced by the parish constable It was a formidable-looking weapon. —Other witnesses proved that the deceased had lingered for nine days, when he died Irom the erysipelas brought on by the injuries received in the violent beating he had had from Mr. Bull.—The jury found a verdict of manslaughter against Bull, who was com mitted to take hie trial at the next assizes. NEARLY a HUNDRED CHILDREN WERE POISONED on Tuesday at Bristol by rating some berries which were strewed upon the quay, having fallen there front a druggist's package. When the young creatures began to sicken, much consternation was created in the city. The infirmary was crowded with applicants for relief, and private surgeries were equally besieged. Although much suffering was caused, it appears by the account furnished by our correspondent that none of the cases are expected to terminate fatally. THE PROPERTY QUALIFICATION.—The absurdity of any property qualifieation was, says the Glasgow l'ose, hurnourowly illu.trated by Franklin, when the question was under discussion in the United States, by the categorical course of reasoning which the great American statesman was famous for. "You would have a qualification based upon property, would you %" said Franklin to an opponent with whom he.was discussing the bases of the franchise for the state of Pennsylvania. "Yes," was the reply. " Then you would consider an ass property," said Franklin, " and you would enfranchise the owner ?" " Most certainly," was again the rejoinder. " Well," said Franklin, "a voter is enrolled with an ass as his qualification, the ass dies and the man loses votes, consequently it was the fin and not the man that wee represented." This view of the case is unan swerable, and the project of representation based on a house is very much akin to the ass representation thus so success fully ridiculed by Franklin. IRELAND. DtinuN, MAY 24.—A placard has been posted in this city, and through several of the neighbouring counties, calling upon the people to march upon Dublin, and see that Mitchel gets a fair trial ; and, if condtnincd, to avenge him and themselves. iLie 613r11 543.] LONDON, THURSDAY, MAY 25, 1848. [THREEPENCE NATIONAL BANK OF IRELAND. The annual meeting of the proprietors of the above i honk wan held yesterday, at the office of the establishment, No. 13, Old Broad-street. Mr. L. Murray was in the chair. I The advertisement by which the meeting had been eon- 1 versed having been read, the following report of the directors was kid b; fore the proprietors :—" On the occasion of the annual general meeting the duty devolves upon the directors of submitting to the proprietors the result of the operations ; of the bank for the past year. The annals art banking do not present a period of greater difficulty or excitement, or one which hie required more anxious care and attention on the part of those having the responsibility of large monetary establish ments The fluctuations in the veue of money, securities, and produce, the large importation of grain, and a tendency to undue speculations, with the full prospect of an abundant harvest, indicated early to the directors the danger that the year would wind up with panic and disaster. In the early part of the year, while the country was under an absolute deficiency of food, the directors willingly lent the facilities of the bank to its importation; taut they considered it their duty to withhold undue accommodation from those who were disposed to pushept culatioa beyond a certain period. la eating with ineraseed vigilance and decision on these views, the directors have the satisfaction of stating that but few of the customers of the bank have suffered, and the bar k itself was enabled to pass through the period of diffi culty with abundant means and without much anxiety of loss. At the same time the continued deficiency in the p data crop in 1847, a produce so essential in the present condition of Ireland to the punctual discharge of local en gaeemente, the disease engendered by the deficiency of food, diminished exports, and increased imports, pressed with unusual severity on the agricultural resources of Ireland. The people hare met these trials with an admirable courage and rt•signetien, and it is hoped that another abundant har vest may restore the country to its previous condition. Not withstanding these and other subjects constantly hefore the attention of the director.. the progress of the hank has been satisfactory, and Its profits have exceeded firmer year , . Public confidence, in its ample resources and manage ment, is steedily increasing, and its future prospects aro sound and healthy. The bad debts having been written off, the directors have, out of the nett profits of the year, amounting to 33,4961. 9a. Id., paid the two helf-vearly dividi rids, and there remains a surplus of 10,9961. 9s. Id. At the but meeting the proprietors having concurred with the directors in the opinion that a reserved fund of 60,0001. wan sufficient, the directors have come to the conclusion of declaring a bonus of 10,000!., to be divided rateably amongst the proprietors, and which will be paid them with the next hall-yearly dividend. During the latter part of the year, it having been intimated to the directors that the London and Dublin Bunk wt re destroue of distolv,ng that company, nego- elation* were entered into with the directors, which terminsted in this establishment succeeding to its connections in the towns of Dundalk, Carrickmacrine, Wicklow, K(114, Athy, Nlulliegar, and Parsonstown, with every prospect of ad vantage to the bank. The whole of these localities are, with the exception of Parsonetown, within the circle from which all banks of issue, except the Bank of Ireland, had been excluded, until the extinction of the monopoly by the Banking Act of 1845. By this arrangement the vacancies in the direction were filled up by three of the directors of that establishment—vie, Sir Ralph Howard, Bart., M.P.; Oda , viol Ommanney, Esq. • and Francis Carnsc Brown, Esq ; ' wbese appointment by the directors will require confirmation by the proprietors. There are now to he elected four direc tors, in the room of A. P. Johnson, Esq. ; Fowler Newsam, E.g.; F. IS Heashaw, Esq. ; and Cites. Bianeoni, Esq. ; whose time of office has expired, but who are re-eligible, and offer themselves accordingly, and three other proprietors have signifit d their intention of becoming candidates fir the office—vis, John O'Conni 11, E.g., M.P., Augustus Vigne ' litq , and ltowand Ronald, Esq., and whose names are slat: .

The whole of these obstacles and their consequences had now been most successfully surmounted. The entire losses of the hank, during the 11 years of its establidtment, amounted to 17.5,0001., but he was happy to be able to state that the whole of this loss had now been entirely written off. (Rear, hear.) They had written off during the last year, and out of their profits, the sum of 29,1661. 4s. 6d., independent of a sum of 10,0001. that they had made beyond the amount ap propriated to dividend. (Hear, hear.) Therefore the profits of the bock for the last year, had this proportion of loos not been written off, would have shown the sum of 62,0001. In 1841 the prt tits of the bank were, in round numbers, 42,0011 ; in 1842, 31.0001.; in 1843, 28.0001.; in 1844, 30,0001. ; in 1845, 36,000/. ; in 1846, 48,0001. ; and in 1847, 61,0001. (Cheers.)

SERIOC , I ACCIDENT ON TILE BRIGHTON AND DOVER RAMA' AY.—Ye,terday afternoon a serious accident happened on the Brighton and Dover Railway, to • man named James Finch. From what could be gleaned, it ap pears that he was emplord at the Reigate station as a porter, and, whilst engaged in the removal of goods to an adjacent warehouse, he had occasion to jump upon one of the trucks attached to an engine, and as he was in the act of getting up his feet slipped, when his right leg got entangled in some portion of the machinery, and before the engine could be stopped, the limb was most fearfully mutilated, and nearly severed from his body. The poor fellow was extricated and carried to the station, where a neighbouring surgeon ren dered the necessary aid. ACCIDENT OS THE LONDON AND BRIGHTON RAIL WAY.-I.Ast evening, shortly before six o'clock, an accident too's place near the Sutton elation, whereby a man, named William Manson, received such serious injuries that his life is at present despaired of. The unfortunate man Will a guard in the service of the company, and shortly Wore the accident the train Mopped at the Sutton .station, to take up puisengtr6. The signal being given, the engine-driver started the train, and Manson mounted the r.mf of one of the carriages, but before he could get to his mat his head come in contact with the arching of a hridge, by which he sustained shocking injuries in the head and other parts of his person. The violence of the collision toned him off on to the ground, and when raised up be was found ti be quite inrensible. lie was conveyed with all speed, by the next train, to London-bridge, and from th ence to the accident ward of Guy's hospital, where the house. surgeon pronounced him to be labouring under concussion of the brain. THE LATE ItATLWAY ACCIDENT.—SIVINDON, May 23 --Another death hu resulted front the late melancholy accident on the railway near this place. The unfor tunate deceased is Mr. Maunsell Micham, a gentleman of property. He sustained a slight concosrion of the brain when the collision took place, and up to the date of his death had r. mained under medical advice at Swindon. An inquest was this day held on the remains of the de ceased, before Mr. Whitmarsh, coroner for Wiltshire. The evidence as to the accident having b :en repeated by the various witnesses, and the identity having been proved by John Fennell, a servant of the deceased, Mr. E. Rogers, sur.eeon, of Swindon, stated that he hod attended Mr. Micham since the accident on the 10th of May. He con sidered the proximate cause of death to be erysipelas, brought on by exposure to cold. Mr. Rimers stated that Mr. Micham had completely recovered from the concussion of the brain, under which be had previously suffered, when attacked with erysipelas.—The jury, after considerable deliberation, re turnell the following verdict:—" That Maunsell Micham died on Monday, the 22nd of May, 1848, from erysipelas, CAUtI d by imprudently exposing himself to cold air on the gallery at the Swindon station, when in a delicate state ot health, resulting from previous injuries received at Shrivenham." INQUEST, YESTERDAY.—DEATH IN A WATER. TAN ii. —By Mr. Bedford, at the Royal Yacht, Stanhope-street, Clare market, on the body of W. H. Denise, aged 4 years. The father of the child stated that he was a groom employed at the Angel Inn Yard, in the Strand, On Monday after noon, between 2 and 3 o'clock, he noticed deceaa. d playing in the yard of the Angel Inn w;th two or three more boys. Hering attended to his horses he went Mail* into the yard, when a person informed him that his son's cap was fi acing on toe surface of the water in a tank four feet high. Witness *lnt there, and on 'looking saw the deceased lying at the bittom of the tank. He got him out and tent for a surgeon, who, up .n his arrival, pronounced life extol, t. Witness bad made every inquiry, but no one had been found who could tell bow the deceased got into the water. He was in the habit of playing about the yard, and the only reasonable conclusion that witness could come to was that he had been playing at "cat" and that the toy had popped into the water, and on climbing up to look for it he had overbalanced him self and fell into the tank.—The Couner said it was very strange that in such a busy place no one had seen how the child got into the water. It was impossible for the deceased to have fallen in without first climbing up the aide of the tank, and the father did not suspect any one of having thrown the deceased into the water; but as they had no direct evidence on that point, he should suggest that an open verdict should be returned.—The jury returned a verdict of "Found drowned."

Tae Jews' HOSPITAL.—The governors and sub strikers to this institction held their anniversary dinner on Tuesday at the London Tavern, F. li. Gioldsmid, Esq., in the chair, in the absence of the Duke of Cambridge. The chair. man, in giving the toast of the evening, alluded to one fact which, more than aught else, entitled the Jews Hospital to support. The difference between the Christian and the Jewish Sabbath would of course present almost ir.surmuunt• able difficulties to Jewish youths becoming apprentices to any but Jewish tradesmen. To remedy this difficulty all kinds of trades were taught in the establishment, and that in their minutest details. In the early part of the evening the children entered the room, the greater proportion of the boy. bearing in their hands various articles, such as ornamental furniture, and shoes and boots of their own manufacture, the execution of which fully justified the cha eman'a obese vation as to the accuracy with which the various trades were taught. The statement of accounts showed that the receipts of the past year amounted to 3,2871. 148. 4d.. of which 2001. proceeded from the year's subscriptions, 6481. from dona tions, 1,3881. from dividends on stock, and 1,0001. from three different loans, namely, 3001. from the London and West minster Bank, 2001. from A. Joseph and L. Myers, Esqrs., treasurers, and 6001. from Sir Anthony de Rothschild, Bart. The expenditure had been 3,1691. 13e. 6d., out of which the loans from the Lonuon and Westminster Bank and from the treasurers had been repaid. The balance remaining was 1181. Os. 10d. The subscriptions during the evening amounted to 4611. COMM EIiCIAL et- X A RIC ETS. MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.
