The announcement of the contemplated visit of the Queen to the Dublin Exhibition is HOW officially confirmed, and has diffused universal joy throughout all ranks in the country. On this occasion it ►s said that Mr. George Roe, chairman of the Exhibi tion committee, will be made a baronet by her Ma jesty. A similar honour has been offered to Mr•. Dargan, who, however, respectfully declined it. The number of visitors is gradually increasing, haling averaged from 4,000 to 6,000; and ever• day Dublin is tilling, and the a►riv'als of strangers by rail and steamer appear to be never-ending. There is, in fact, ever• prospect of a "season" such as the fast-fading Irish metropolis has not witnessed since the best days of the " old Parliament" in College-green. The emigration, since the opening of the spring, has been upon an immense scale; but the season is now drawing to a close, and there is a manifest decrease from some of the outports. Since the be ginning of the year the emigrants from Cork alone amounted to 20,154, of whom 16,4111 went by Liver pool. Only two law students are to be called to the Irish bar• during the present. Trinity Term, and there is but one law student entered for that term, as cor►►- mencing. both facts show the very depressed con dition of the bar as a profession, at a time when other classes in the country are steadily improving. Mr. Conway, for many years editor and proprietor of the Dublin Evening Post, tile leading Whig jour nal in this country, died on Tuesday morning, at his residence, St. Kevin's, near Dublin. Another Roman Catholic synod has been an nounced. It is to take place in the Metropolitan (impel of Marlborough-street, on the 2nd of next month, and is to be a "provincial" one, but the ob ject fur which it will he held has not been stated. Obituarg. Stu RICHARD Iluextxv Comm Knt., expired on Monday night last, after a protracted illness, at his house in Sitting-gardens. The deceased, who was born in 1791, was third son of the Rev. Thomas Contyn, vicar of Tottenham, and ownploted his educ tion at St John'o college, Oxford, at which he took the degree of A.M., and was called to the bar in 1814. He was appointed a Puisne Justice of the Supreme Court at Madras in 1825, where he was shortly after wards created a knight, and in 1835, a vacancy occurring, he was appointed Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. In l 84•2 he resigned, and soon afterward' returned to his native country. He was the author of several learned woks, among others " A history of the Western Empire, from the Birth of Charlemagne to the Accession of Charles V." GOVERNMENT EDUCATION Ittu..—LONDON UNION ON CHUReII MATTEIO4.—At a meeting of the ccm mittee of the London Church I7nion held on Tuesday, the 24th day of May, at their rooms. Adam-street, Adelphi, it was unanimously resolved, " That to leave the parents of children admitted into church schools the right of withdrawing them from such portion of the instruction as they may consider to be at variance with their own religious views would be utterly subversive of the discipline of the school, and injurious to the effect of religious train ing upon the children of Churchmen ; and that the 10th clause of the proposed bill for the promotion of education is, therefore, highly objectionable and ought to be entirely expunged." VAUXHALL OPENED ON WEDNESDAY, the Detby night, with a grand lud mosfita% The dancing COM menced about ten o'clock, but it was nearly twave o'clock before the mass of the company arrived. At that hour the grounds were crowded. Every kind of garb, distinctive either of nation or profession, was to be seen in the motley multitude. There were Ureeks, Turks, Jews, English sailors not a few, Male pretty VivandiiTes, and graceful columbines even charity-boys and omnibus conductors. At midnight the dancing was at its height, and was proceeding with great animation and due decorum.
