De BLIP, SUNDAY. It would appear that the Irish government has already begun to feel some anxiety on the subject, as the following letter from the Poor-law Commis sioners, which was read at the last meeting of the Dundalk board of guardians, is most probably a cir cular addressed at the desire of government to all the Irish hoards of guardians : Poor Law Compilation office, Dublio, Aug. 4, 1552. Sir—The commissioners for administering the laws fur the relief of the pour in Ireland are desirous of obtaining an elect report of the present state of the potato crop, it any be planted on the work house site, from each union is Ire land. The commitaionets request yes will bring this sub ject iminsuistely before the guardians of the union, with a view to their prucunng from the master of the workhouse of the agriculturist, if there is one, a precise mcount of the Mate of the crop on the workhouse site, or on my land in esenoation el the guardians. Any information which the guardians may be desirous to send regarding the state of Me mop generally in the union should be given is a sopa rate suture, which can be prepared at more lassie, the etimmimioners being desirous to obtain • report of the week , biome crop with the least possible delay.—by order, W. STLNLIT, SOCTOCIIITy. To the Clerk of the Union. Some of Lord Derby's friends think that tho blight maybe productive of at least one favourable result, that of affording government • fair excuse for shelving protection for the present. The following are a few of the accounts of the blight received to the provincial journals of to-day. The Northern Whig says: Ws regret to learn, from our reports of this morning, that throughout the surrounding counties a general feeling of ahem prevails regarding the state of the al -important potato cep. It is mentioned, as a strange fact, in attraction with this inexplicable blight, that sandy and moory moils, where the crop was hitherto most exempt from disease ap pear to be that worst off; in the neighbourhood of Liras and Islandmagee, several instances ere given to prove this so regards the former description of soil, and from about Yillinchy and beinnield as regards the latter. We are, however, still wilds g to hope that the danger may be ex aggerated, and that from under-spotted or discoloured stalks a lair proportion of sound tuben may yet bo raised ; for it is fearful to contemplate the effects upon our struggling farmers of the failure of a crop epos which they have staked so largely this year—indeed, already their cry is, bow will high rents be paid, should the crop fail I—How, indeed / The Newry Erannner, to illustrate the rapidity with which the disease develops itself, says : Oa Friday week list we saw a basket of potatoes por -011111111111 laths ranker of Dundalk, and used some of them at Maass. They ware Asa tolerably good : then was a eer- I Nis iodisation of dhow Just ea sad radar the skin, but, that Wig voisoved. the Wows were good to at, sad dry ; ' the ant day, bownor, a part of the lane lot brought to ' table woe quite walk far um, and in feet, with few excep tionss they were madams. The - Kilkenny Moderator, after describing the favourable prospects of other crops, says : To those e.heering facts, however, nothing can present • more melancholy contrast than the accounts of the potato crop, and although there is a vast difference of opinion as to the extent of the injury already sustained, and in the estimate of the future mischief to be dreaded, yet all agree that the blight of this year, in addition to being a month earlier, is far more canaille* and destructive than that of the last &MIL It appears to be beyond doubt that the late-sown gelds will be nearly if sot completely unpro ductive ; the tubers being only half formed and weak, and vegetation entirely stopped, they are rapidly rotting and Millltisi away in the ground. The bed upon which so hugs • portion of our people were dorpesding, hoping even against hope, literally disappearing frees the soil I From some districts accounts are not quite as bad, and fields are described as basing es yet altogether escaped the blight,but these an clearly isolated exceptions. The It'aterford News says : The crops, generally apeakirg, seem good and prolific, with the exception of the potato, the unfortunate potato, the tsbers of which are now as withered as they were wont in October or November. The root itself, so far as we can learn, seems as yet but little affected ; but we know not how loos this may be. The Naitleern Standard is more encouraging than any of the preceding journals. It says : Since our last the pnigress of the disease appears to have been arrested. Some few fields ham to a certain ex tent recovered their healthy appearance, and the quantity in market would not lead us to suppose that farmers were obliged to dig out and bring to market in consequence of damage. Lord Palmerston has arrived at his estates in Sligo and Donegal, and it is expected that his visit will be proloeged for some days. His lordship was received with the warmest welcome by his tenantry. - - - • - Mr. Sharman Crawford has accepted the invitati of the Tenant Luise to attend the Tenant Right Conference to be ben in Dublin at the beginning of next month, bat declines the honour of presiding as chairman. The convict Brophy, condemned for the murder at Ballymack, in the county of Kilkenny, was executed on Vfadaseday. He persisted in wetting his in note's= d the crime. Ae Walliber, though still broken and uncertain, is fin Bahl since Saturday evening, when a change d am lush place, and this morning is bright and fry, with a cool breeze blowing from the west. The Mid assellift of the potato crop are, as usual, con noting, but upoi the whole rather better than those meaved in the course of the last week. The Galway state that in many instances the disease has }seers checked, and the farmers admit that the enseti of the blight have been much more trifling rip they were led to anticipate from first appear sae/D. Reports from other quarters are of a similar Isadency; nevertheless, there is no doubt whatever did a gc proportion—at least one-third—of the h irretrievably gone, and will be totally unfit ne sustenance. The Wexford Independent mentions by way of "minion," that Mr. M'Mshon, the recently elected amber for the county of Wexford, has been ap plated by the crown to conduct the prosecutions on as of the English circuits. -..0 - S THE FATAL AFFRAY AT SIB-MILE•BRII)G On the reassembling of the court to-day, Thos. Mc Grath was called and examined. His testimony was similar to t►at of the other witnesses. He heard the shots fired and saw men killed, but did not see soy rioting, stone t►rowing, or attempt at violence on the part of the people. He identified Mr. Delmege as hewing fired a shot with • mall pistol, and swore that after firing, Mr. Delmer, went to the rear guard, and said, " Fire, fire, front and rear." He saw Mr. Delmege in court that day. Us told witness not to be staring at him, and witness said, " You are the man that are after committing all the slaughter ;" to which Mr. Delmege made no reply. The witness, on cross-examination, said that he had taken an active part in the election, and that he addressed one voter on • air guarded by soldier", sad told him to do his ants like • man. The court was then adjourned to 10 o'clock on Monday morning. THE IRDSII INDUSTRIAL ERRIRITION or 1853. In consequence of numerous offers of subscriptions from England, the contralti*e have given notice that all the funds for the Exhibi t ion of Ifti3 will be provided by Mr. Dugan, and that consequently no pecuniary contributions can be re ceived. The committee are now briskly occupied considering the numerous plans and designs that have been sent to them for the proposed building. They have called to their aid the professional services of Messrs. Lanynn, of Belfast; Hernias, C.E., engineer of the Midland Great Western Itailosof Ireland ; and George Miller, engineer of the Great Southern and Western Railway. Mr. Fairbeiro, of Manchester, has also, at the request of Mr. Deegan, pro mieed to give the committee the benefit of his great and reliable experience, and visits Dublin for that purpose neat week. ALARMING FIRE AT GRAVEREND.—On Sunday evening, between the hours of nine and ten, the inhabitants of Gravesend were alarmed by the suddren outbreak of a tremendous conflagration on the farming premises of Mr. Collier, is the sicieity of the waterworks, which burst forth with tremendous fury, and illumined tho horison for many miles distant. The barns, sheds, and other outbuild lags, together with several stack. of hay, were soon eon ' sumed, the wind blowing strong from the south-west; but suddenly shifting roans, the mansion of Mr. Clan., situated at the north-east eatemity of the farming pre mises, entirely escaped destruction. The town and custom house engines having shortly arrived, and a good supply of water being at hand, mastery was obtained over the tire Wynn 11 and 12 9"clock. Cleslog Pmlama 110. ibsre. klusra.

For the next account of the Bth September the price closed at 99/ to The set tlement of the account will engage attention during the next few days, and will probably have some influence on the market. Reduced Threes have receded to par, and the Three-and-a-Quarter per Cent. to 103:. The rise in the corn market to-day was referred to us one cause of the prevalent depression.

The advice' received by the liiiz e il:klew York, mention that the Eastern. Rai Company have negotiated with Messrs. Baring, B , and Co., for 500,000 dols.(about 100,000/. )of their bonds, at par, payable in ten years, with interest at the rate of 5 per cent. The money is of course to be expended in the construction of the line. The directors of the Beirut and County Down Railway have made a call of 2/. 10s. per share. According to the official returns, the total note circulation of ail Ilk , private banks of England and Wales, during the week ending the 24th of July, was 3,485,5511. ; in the week preceding the amount was 3,504,3551. There is consequently a decrease of 18,804/. ~ The note circulation of the joint stock banks during the same week was 2,839,536/. • and the previous week's return being 2,856,5201., the decrease is shown to be 16,9841. . .. . . . . _ . On taking into consideration the active circulation of the Bank of England, which in the week in quer tion was 23,231,410!. (being 516,3251. less than** week preceding), we find the aggregate note circula tion of England and Wales to be 29,556,4971., which shows a decrease of 552,1131., as compared with the returns for the previous week ending the 17th of, July, and an increase of 2,986,8351. compared wil l those for the corresponding week of last year. As regards the fixed issues, the private banks were 1,312,5241., and the joint-stock banks 570,4511. below the amount authorised to be issued, making a total nt 1,782,9751. below the fixed amount. The subjoined calculations show the rate per cent. per annum yielded by the various English securities sited at the average of the prices now ruling. Where the asterisk (*) is prefixed, it is to be under stood that the share rate of interest is lea the income tax. It will be seen that in every case we take the rate of interest last declared as the basis of our calculation : the forthcoming dividends will, in many cases, exhibit a difference. To render the results strictly accurate, the proportion of interest which may have accrued since last dividend period should in each case be taken into account. It should also be remembered that the Three-and-a-Quarter per Cent becomes* Three per Cent. Stock in 1854.

The Westmiuter sculls, the symbols ot aquatic superiority, were presented in 1844, by Mesers.B.Burton end B.P.Colquhoun (old Weetatinaters), for yearly competition, as an encouragement to ►onourable emulation in the science of scullion. Mr. Wright was the successful candidate in both '4ll(end '4O, and as his superiority wee so well established no race took place last year, and, consequently, being thrice the bolder, he resigned the tro phies of victory this season for competition among the chal lengers (three in number), the Hon. B. Bourke, T.B. ,; Mr. Madden, Q. 8.; and Mr. Hammond, T.B. The distance con tested was front Putney-bridge to Vauxhall, Mr. Burton, one of the dosage, himself once of the meat diatingniehed seullen end oarsmen, ohleiating as umpire. Mews. Hammond, T.B. W. Madden, Q.S. Hen 6. Bourke, T.B. Mr. Bourke got a slight lead, which he maintained gal lantly fora quarter of a mile; then they were almost all ' scull and scull again. Mr. Bourke put on a spurt, and kept a slight lead a little longer, but off Wandsworth was passed by Mr. Hammond, and almost immediately after wards by Mr. Madden, who made a smut race with the winner till nearly the end. BUCKINGUANSHIRE RAILWAY. The following is the report to be presented at the le thirteenth half-yearly general meeting of the court of pro prieton :—" The directors have to present the half-yearly la amount of receipt and payment of guaranteed divicienit Si. They regret that the bill for the proposed junction line be- 4 8 tween this company's lines and the lines of the Ozford, C Worcester, and Wolverhampton Company, near Oxford, 34 , which passel the House of Commons, was rejected in the Lords. They trust, however, that a junction so greatly e required in order to promote the interests of the district, M. will nevertheless be ultimately sanctioned by parliament. ft The directors will propose at lhe special meeting a 'mitt- 4 ;; tion authorising the conversion of FM 10s. shares into stock; a step to which they anticipate the unanimous approval of le the proprietors."

Great excitement prevails both here and in Cornwall relative to shares in the United Mines, to which we have several times drawn attention. The shares were done in Cornwall on Saturday at 7001., and the market to-day leaves of buyers at 8001. A report from these mines will be found below. Sales have taken place in Wheal Cupid, at 9; East Buller, 61; Carvannal, 4 ; East Tolwo, 20 ; South Tamar, 61; Tamar, 41; Tincroft, 131; Mendip Hills, 295. Beyond an improvement of 2s. 6d. per share in Nouveau Mendes there was no movement in the gold mining share market. West Mariposa shares were 1 done at par. The non-official quotations are as follows : Australian Consols, 1 dia. to par; Melbourne, par to prem. ; Glensolin, 7, to 1 prem.; Connemara, to prem. From a letter received to-day from San Francisco, dated the 26th June, we learn that Messrs. Hawes and Sandeman, the commissioners sent to California by the Carson's Creek Mining Company, will arrive in England about the lst September, accompanied by Mr. Morgan, the representative of the American partners in that mine, with full I)owers to enter into a new arrangement with the directors in London. The Carson's Creek Mine is represented to be equal in mineral wealth to any in California, and is most favourably spoken of by Mr. Clements, the intelligent superintendent of the Nouveau Monde Mining Coin pany, who has entered into arrangements for very valuable mines for the Nouveau Monde Company, and will shortly commence working them with great vigour. It will be nary for the Carson's Creek Company to make an entirely new arrangement for their mine, in consequence of the ore, which was re presented by the American partners to have been on the surface, and which they valued at 200,0001., having disappeared in the conflict for possession of the mine, which is now confirmed to the company. It is most probable, therefore, in the new arrange ments, that the capital will be reduced, and a much more advantageous bargain for the company entered into. THIS DAY. Two o'CLoca. The transactions in the gold mining shares to-day have been; rather more numerous, but are still far from active, and have given:ocouion to no change in prices. Cobra shares mark 40 to 401.

' A FEMALE SAILOR.—On Monday afternoon, at about half-past three o'clock, as Constable Geale was walk ing along the South-mall, Cork, in plain clothes, he remarked two sailors, who, appearing to be strangers. attracted his attention. One of them was dressed in white clothes, the other in a barragon jacket and tromers ; but from the peculiar tripping gait of the latter the suspicions of the constable were aroused. Ile accosted them, saying, " I sup you are strangers here ;do you want to he anywhere? " The sailors both thanked him, and declined, saying they knew where they were, w h en t h e constable perceived that the voice of the sailor in the bar ragon dress was that of a female. He, without manifest ing surprise, replied, " Oh, I know who you are; you arc a girl, it won't do, I know you quite well. At this the stranger's face reddened like scarlet, and elle " Keep my secret; it is true I am a woman, but don't let any one know it." The constable replied that she might depend on it her secret would be safe ; but she must at present go along with him. The constable then took her to the Tuckey-street station. He told her he wee a policeman, and that it would be his duty to arrest her, and bring her before the magistrates ; meantime she should be lodged in Bridewell. The girl, on hearing this. turned pale, and earnestly requested to be allowed to re turn home. She gave the following particulars of her history . :—lfer name is Agnes Corbett she is • native of Limerick, and 18 years of age. Her father and mother are dead, but she has three brothers, the eldest of whom is in de employment of Mr. D. Cullen, grocer, Thommill gate, Limerick. Her two younger brothers and herself re side on a little bit of ground, which is their own property, at about eight miles from Limerick. She some time ago formed an acquaintance with a young man named Alexander Moore, the mate of a vessel, and they were en gaged to be married, but she was surprised about a tort night ago at her loser's leaving for America without pre viously acquainting her of his departure. In the excitement consequent upon hearing of his flight, she left her home on Monday week, determined to get on board some ship as a sailor, with the view of seeking him in America. She accordingly came to Cork, where she procured her disguise, and was in treaty with the master of a vessel bound to America for a situation on beard as a sailor, when she was arrested and taken oft to Bridewell. On her way to prison, news of the circum stance spreading through the neighbourhood, she was sur rounded by a large crowd of persons curious to we what the "sailor girl' was like. She is not tall, of a fair com plezion, with light flowing ringlets, and delicately-formed hands and arms. Iler manner is graceful and her demeanor good; and altogether from her appearance one would iina gine she never could have had the holdness to form a reso lution to work her way to America as a common sailor, much less the strength to go through the hardship of such an em ployment. She is at present in Bridewell, awaiting the or rival of her friends from Limerick to c onve y her •home.— Cork Reporter.
