His Excellency the Lord Lieutenant held his first levee at Dublin Castle this day. The atten dance Iran very numerous, and embraced nearly all that is to be found of rank and respectability in this city and the surrounding country, numbers of persons having also :come to town from remote parts of Ireland to be present on the occasion. Previous to the levee his Excellency, who was accompanied by the Countess of St. Germans, re ceived in the Council Room addresses from the Lord Mayor and Town Council of Dublin, and from the Provost and Fellows of Trinity College University. The following address from the c?rporatton with his Excellency's reply, which I subjoin, are looked upon ' here with the deepest interest from the unexpectedly popular views expressed on the vice-royalty and Dublin Hospital questions ; May it please your Excellency— 'vim= We, th e lard Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses of Dublin, approach your Excellency, to ender the assurance doer devoted allegiance to our most gracious Sovereign, &odour congratulations on your Excellency's arrival in this wenn se her Mejmty's representative. It has recently been our pleasing duty to offer to your Excellency's predecessor the tribute of our gratitude and respect, not merely for the earnest anxiety which he had manifested to promote the material prosperity of this nun try,but for Indistinct and unequivocal terms iawbicb he had announced on the pen of his colleagues and himself the de twathation of the government to presen• the high office of whack his Excellency had illustrated the importance to every pito( this coseary ; and we now desire most respectfully to amen your Excellency that we most fully concur in the eentimeste expressed by the Earl of Eglinton on that ocea- Sin—" that the proposed abolition of the lord.lieutenancy would 'Whet irreparable injury on this city ; that it would be a wanton outrage upon the people of this country ; that it would be impossible to carry oat satisfactorily the changes which it would render necessary ; sod that it would be an unworthy act of imperial parsimoey.'• Your Excellency's intimate acquaintance with this coun try, acquired during • former residence amongst us, ren ders it ValifelPiellty that we should advert to her many irgislative and administrative requirements. Your Excel koce will, we are aseurtd, consider it your imperative duty, sot merely to amain by every means ia your power the industry sad enterprise of our people, but to protect then by • fair and impartial adaioistrattha of the laws. On one subject, however, we desire to convey to your Excellency the unanimous opinion of the citizens of Dublin ornery ensiled party, that a perseverance to the policy den lan few years to withdraw from the hospitals, the l't!ollell of the suffering poor, and the schools of medical swam is this city, the public grants so long bestowed on them, will be regarded by every individual acquainted with rtes units of 010 subject as • measure of severity and in justice which every Irishman should deeply deplore. In conclusion, we would respectfully entreat your Excel leacy's attentive to the great laduatrial Exhibition of 1863, which is likely C. contribute so importantly so the advert tat , not only of the metropolis, but of the sentry at large. We would earnestly bespeak your Economy's especial Patronage for thi s nobl e undertaking, se calculated to Icier us is the race of honourable dairy with the enlace lad intelligence of the world, end to primate the reatifokl blowup which result from MS pehOollal later mars' of aattoaa. la We gasmen we vesture to saticipste the esedlal moistens ef Resslisasfs /11- V l tted Countess, 106000 *KEW swaps se hes .6.lbied 90 away to appreciate her kindly iaterest is the Welfare of this vitality, and whose extensive patronage of tor ulnas is stall gratefully remembered. •riswar. Ily Lad Major arid Gentlunen,—l acknowledge with %Weak& tkc assaiancea you give me of your devoted aliegiance to our must gracious Sovereign, and I thank fay swept the congtatulatiolis which you offer me on my arrival in this o.untry as the repnocntative of her Majesty. us glad that you have paid a tribute of respect and Pentad° to fl my noble piedecessor, cot only because I flunk It must have gratified the Earl of Eglintoa, whom I bay and regard, but also because I look on it as • Pal that the citirius of Dublin observe and appreciate any arm that is made to promote the prosperity of Ire loal by thine who stand is the position in which I have been Said. ~y l sa ptnusded that the abolition of the office of Lord urtlianst would be productive of much practical loco's rtiMilei sad of little countervailing practical advantego. .L ll , i annoyer, persuaded that the maintenance of this desired by the great body of the Irish people. 'Aerators think that its abolitioa would be highly in ittitat • opinion I exprrned in the Rouse of Commons nine " I n ago, and 1 hay • sofa so roams sines to alter it. It is my intention to foster every undertaking which shall appear to me eeleulated to call into useful action the ener gies of the Irish people. It will be my duty to protect them is the prosecution of such undertakings by a firm and im partial administration of the law. The knowledge that I formerly acquired, as Chief Seer.- tary to the Lord Lieutenant, and that which I shall here after derive from official conres, will, I trust, enable me to determine what legislative and what administrative met ' sures are best adapted to supply the existing wants of Ire land ; but I shall listen with attention to any represents :Dens that the corporation of Dublin may think fit to address to me on that subject. I should see with regret the discontinuance, or even the diminution, of the grant which parliamen t hitherto made fur the support of the hospitals in the city. These institutions Lave, in my opinion, a peculiar claim to the aid which they receive from the public purse. The lutlustrial Exhibition of 1853, which you justly de scribe as being likely to contribute to the advantage of the country at large, as well as to that of this metropolis, 2nd as tending to promote the peaceful interconna of nations, shill have my especial patronage. So laudable an under taking is, indeed, entitled to all the countenance which I can give it. The terms in which you speak of Lady St. Germans have afforded me sincere gratification. She continues to take a lively interest in the wilier* of behind, and will be happy to encourage to the utmost of her power the skill and in dustry of Irish artisans.

Last night a numerous meeting, promoted by the committee in aid of European freedom, was held at the British School-rooms, Cowper-street, for the purpose of petitioning parliament against the occupation of Italy by French and Austrian troops. Mr. La Bitown in the chair. Mr. BIALI proposed the first resolution, to the effect that the cause of European freedom wu the cause of every true Eaglishman, as the liberation of the oppressed nations wee the sure guarantee of progress at home, and that the meeting pledge itself to further the object of the European committee. _ _ _ Mr. Irmo"( seconded the resolution. He thought that the occupation of Rome by the French was one of the foul ' est acts ever perpetrated, out it could not be denied that the English government—not the English people—were guilty of complicity in that act. (Hear.) That was one fault committed. Another fault was that they did not protest against Russia interfering in the straggle between Austria and Hungary. (Heir, hear.) He believed if that hadbeen dune earnestly and boldly, Russia would have held back, and Hungary and Italy would now have bean free. The resolution was put and carried unanimously. Mr. MATSON, the secretary, having read the petition to parliament, Mr. Navrros proposed its adoption. Mr. C. F. NICHOLS seconded the motion, which was car ried unanimously. The meeting concluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman. THE LAIR FATAL BURGLARY AT SHOREHAM.— The mystery connected with the unknown burglar, who was shot while in commission of his crime on the night of Wednesday last, at Buckingham-court, near Shoreham, hasbeen cleared up or partially so. Ile has been recog nised as John O'Hara, or " Dublin Jack," who had been living in Brighton, with a girl named Smith, and was the companion of thieves. Yesterdaj morning the Brighton I magistrates (John Borrer, W. Partridge, Forster Smithe, W. Darner, Esqm, and Mayor Carr) were engaged in in ' vestigating the case. The young woman Smith, together with Joseph Duncan (alias McGee) and his wife, and also George Prosser, were in custody. Evidence was given that all four prisoners were companions of thieves, and that they had boon seen early and late in company of deceaaed ; sad then a considerable number of garment., which had been found in possession of some of the prisoner, or had been pledged hy them, or persons believed to be sm, at the shops of Mr. Folkard' ' and Mr. Lyons, were produced and identified by the ser i Tants of Mr. Bridger and the Rev. W. Wheeler (vicar of ' Shoreham), as portions of the clothing stolen in the late bur glaries. At the request of Mr. Somers Clarke, of Brighton, who prosecuted on behalf of Mr. Bridger, the magis trates granted a remand of all the prisoners to enable the police to seek further evidence. Shooting a burglar seems to have little operation in the way of warning ; for during the night of Sunday the residence of Captain Bungard, of the Semaritan,near the Diseenting Chapel, on the Brighton road, Shoreham, was attempted. The captain was awoke, and from his window distinctly saw two men leave his premises. The house had been attempted both back and front. The site is a short half mile from Buckingham. STRIKE OP AGRICULTURAL LILBOUREIALL-STRAT- Phan Bea-CAITLS, MBAS S41.11111111:11Y, FMB. B.—Yester day the farm labourers of this extensive parish turned out for higher wages—the whole of them assembled in a body together, and waited on their employers to demand two shillings per week more ; the wages they had been receiving was from seven shillings to eight shillings per week. Their employers refused to raise their wages, and consequently they proceeded to the Old Castle public-house at Old Sarinn,whers they:were regaled with liberal petatioasof,prinse October ; after this they went to Salisbury in a body, and commenced begging (um door to door in order to enable them to carry out their object. In several instances liberal sums were given them by tradesmen, and which is to form a fund to pay them wages. One of the large farmers sant to Salisbury yesterday for his men to see if be could arrange with them, but the labourers would not go unless in a body. Wisundirstand that the farmers generally have offered an advance of one shilling, per week, but the men are determined to take not leas than two shillings. The re cruiting °Meer' are successfal in this respect. It is believed that the men will succeed. The stream of emigration has been rolling swiftly.on in this neighbourhood, and glittering accounts have be. n received from those who Sr. at the " diggings," which, together with the miserable pittance before received by them, are the causes of dissatisfaction, mere especially seeing that the strikes at llsrford St. Martin and Bishupstone last week hare beta so successful; in both cases an advance of two shillings per week has been acceded to. There i. no doubt but that other parishes here will follow the example. LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENINI SHARE LISTS. TCBSDAT ETZNIXO. There was a further rise in the railway market to-day, which was well supported until towards the official close, when there was a partial reaction. London and North Western stock reached 119; to 120, but was then more offered, and receded to 119 to York and North Midland stock was very buoyant, and in most cases the closing official quota tions show a sensible advance on those of yesterday. Caledonian was tho exception, closing 10s. worse. After the official hours the market was generally rather weaker. ii t ; m 1 on - f 1 6 SO 20s lie i 2 3 3 THIS DAY.—Two o'CLocx.

There was rather a revival of business in the gold mining shares, the public coming in in the hope of good advice. from Australia. The inquiries were chiefly for Port Phillip, Colonial Gold, Nouveau Monde, New Grenada, and British Australian. The shares of this last named company closed 9-16 to 1-16 prem., owing to the directors having com pleted an arrangement for the working of a valuable auriferous estate in Australis, without purchase, but giving the owners of the estate 15 per cent. nett royalty on the gold found. The company are thus saved all the risks attendant on purchasing any property. The British Iron Company's shares are 11. lower. Those of the United Mexican and Old Australian Cop per Companies were better. Santiago shares also left off better, at 64 to 74.

The tendency of the stock markets to-day was again in the direction of an improvement. The English funds met with more demand, and main tained a very firm appearance, whilst in the railway ' market considerable buoyancy prevailed until towards the close of business, when there was a partial reaction, the marked advance that has taken place during the last few days inducing a renewal of sales. Much of the buying has again proceeded from the late operators for a fall, and the market has derived additional support from advises of a further improvement in the country markets, especially at Liverpool. It is understood that the next return of the Bank of England will show a decrease of bullion at least as large as that exhibited in the last balance sheet of the institution, but this result had been expected. done today r.--A Consols reached 99t, for cash to-day, but the pre- I valent and closing quotation was 994 to 1 for money and Thursday. The contengo for March ruled without change at 1-1 G to 4. Money stock is still scarce in this market. Business was moderately ac tive, and included a purchase on government account at 991. The official report includes :—Threo per Cent. Consols, for money, 991, 1,1, ti ; ditto, for account, 994,1. Three per Cents. Reduced, 1004, k. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 1031, 4.

India Bonds were done at 60s. prem. Foreign stocks remain firm, and Spanish and Mexican were better. Mexican Bonds closed 221 to 23, the bondholders expressing a hope that in the universal anarchy which now prevails in the republic things have seen their worst, and that the upshot of the present confusion may be the establishment of a stronger government. Turkish Scrip receded to to dis., and Granada Deferred Bonds were a shade flatter. Sales are thus marked:—Brazilian Old Five per Cent.

To-day and during the last two or three days the money market hu been rather easier, although with no marked change in the rates. The dividend on the York and North Midland Railway Company for the last half-year was offi cially announced in the Stock Exchange to-day as at the rate of Three per Cent per annum. The amount of gold brought over by the Bloomer, which has just arrived at Liverpool, is 10,700 ounces, valued at 42,8001. She left Sydney on the 3rd of November, so that her dates are not so late u those received via India. The quay earnings of the Southampton Dock Company for the month of January were 2,4331. against 1,393/. in the same month last year, being an increase of 1,040/. Australian Agricultural shares were firm. South Australian Land reached 514, and Van Diemen's Land were also better. The shares of the South Australian Banking Company rose 11., closing 44 to 46. There were also dealings as follows : Bank of British North America, 594 ; Chartered Bank of Asia (51. paid), 41 ; London Joint-Stock Bank, 201 ex div.; Oriental Bank Corporation, 451, 46 ; East and West India Docks, 169, 1684 ; L ondon Docks, 129 ex div. ; St. Katharine Docks, 99; toria bock.

There were bids of prem. for the shares of the Atlantic and Pacific Junction Company, just announced, but this price is as yet scarcely more than nominal. The petition for a charter for the London Bank of Australia and India, praying for incorporation for carrying on business in the Australian colonies, was, yesterday, presented to her Majesty in Council, the preliminary forms having been gone through. The quotations of stocks at Amsterdam on Mon day are thus reported by telegraphic express:- Dutch Four per Cents., 95 3.16; ditto Two-and-a- Half per Cents., 641. Spanish Deferred Three per Cents., 23. Mexican New, 231. Portuguese New, 34 The Spanish Committee's Certificates, 4! per cent. Spanish Old Three per Cents. (English), 471. At Vienna, on Monday, the Five per Cent. Metallies were quoted 941, and the exchange on London descended to 10.47, a favourable interpretation being put on the news from Montenegro. There is at length an improvement in the foreign exchanges, though as yet not very decided. The most satisfactory feature was the number of drafts which remained undisposed of after having been offered at higher rates than were paid at the beginning of change. This was especially the case with bills on Hamburg; 13.6 was at first freely paid for this paper, but bills subsequently remained over at 13.61. St. Petersburg was done as low as 38d., following the movement from the other side. On Paris there were more drawers at short than for some time past, and although the rate remains 25.05, paper was a good deal offered. Vienna and Trieste and Leghorn were rather lower, and other places scarcely changed. Our list of the prices negotiated is annexed : Slme. Print IS negotiated this day. Bine and M. Money.

MUSIC. MR. PERRY'S CONCERT. Mr. Perry gave his annual benefit concert last evening, at the Music-hail, in Store-street. The principal part of the performance consisted of Handel's Oratorio (or rather Cantata)'eallcd " The Triumph of Time and Truth ;" a forgotten work, the revival of which, we suspect, it is vain now to attempt. It is the last of the author's produc tions; bearing, according to Dr. Burney, the date of 1757, within two years of flandel's death, and when he was aged, infirm, and blind. One of his juvenile works, composed before he came to England, was an Italian Cantata, called " Il Trionfo del Tempo," of which this last work of his old age probably contains reminiscences. As otten hap pened with Handel. he was unfortunate in the ant ject of this Cantata. The poem is a frigid allegory, of which the person:tom are Beauty, Pleasure, De ceit, Counsel, ant Tinss. Pleasure and Deceit try to allure Beauty into a life of voluptuous enjoyment; while Counsel and Time advise her to follow the path of wisdom and virtue. She hesitates for a while, and at length follows the better course. This sermon is couched in very heavy and prosaic verses, little calculated to kindle the genius of the musician. Still, however, there is room for musical effects. The gay and alluring strains of Pkasure and Deceit, with the grave dignity of Counsel and Time, pre sent contrasts of which the composer has not failed to take advantage; and though tho piece, as a whole, is exceedingly dry and uninteresting, it contains passage- of considerable power and beauty. There is, in particular, an air, t' Mortals think that Time is sleeping," sung by Miss Dolby in the character of Counsel, which is a perfect gem ; and there are two or three other pretty things which might be introduced with advan tage into our concerts. Tho choruses are slight ; and, though ingenious, have little or nothing of Handel's characteristic grandeur. The meaner in which this piece was performed merits praise. There was a small but c Iti cient orchestra ; and the additional parts tor wind instrii menu, added by Mr. Perry, had a very pleasing effect. The solo parts were well sung by Miss Messeut, Miss Dolby, Miss Chambers, Mr. Benson, and Mr. Bodda ; and the choral voices were very good. A short sacred Cantata, composed by Mr. Perry, was afterwards performed ; a well written and musician-like piece, but without any remarkable feature; and the concert concluded with a selection of miscellaneous music, chit tly popular songs, glees, and ballads. The ball was well filled GOLD FOUND IN ARRAN.—We learn that a CORM of prospecting has been going on of late on the island of Arran, under the instruction of the Duke of Hamilton, the proprietor, and that gold has actually been found near the north end ; to what extent, however, we aro not yet able to say.—North British Mail. FRENCH GOODS FOR BUENOS AYEES.—Upwards of 100 tons of the choicest of French merchandise were de spatched, a day or two ago, from Dune to Southampton, to be shipped on board the Brazilian and Buenos Ayres mail , steamer Tay, which leaves the latter port to-day. The French mail for Brazil and the River I'late, despatched from llavre on Monday last for the Tay steamer, was uit• usually heavy. THE SCREW STEAMER BENGAL, belonging to the Oriental and Peninsular Company, made uno:ber trial trip yesterday down Southampton Water, at Spithead, and in the Solent.
