RKPEAL OF THE UNION .—This important question is the topiv of conversation in every circle. In no part s of Ireland, we believe, have the baneful erects of the disastrous measure of the Union been so r.iaitifest as in Kerry. It is its peculiar misfortune to be afflicted with the :urse of absenteeism to a gusset degree than any other part of Ire land. The poor impoverishcd tenantry are harrassed by a cruel and ty rannical set of agents. Our maritime county, of 400 miles of sea coast, is wholly deprived of the advantages of foreign trade. With.the best rosition in the united kingdom for foreign trade, our population snow as little of its importance as if they resided in the Queen's County. To the people of Kerry the repeolof thellnion is of the most sisal importance. The return of the absentees to Tralee, Kenmore, and Listowel, and the former residences of our nobility . and gentry, would speedily follow,—and Tralce would become in reality the Livemool of Ireland.

He is decidedly opposed to the repeal of the Union, and is sensible that the agitation of such a measure, es peclally'at the present conjuncture, affords jolt ground for alarm. At the same rime, he has had the satisfaction of observing, that it bas had the effect of awakening attention throughout the empire 'to the state of :rebind, and to the imperfections, corruptions, and abuses, of the ge need ti seen of government ; and he is not without hopes that the alarm excited by an impracticable project may produce real good, by quicken ing‘the progress of general' refotm, and rivetting attention oa the date. to condition of the great mass of the population of Ireland. With these view's Mi. Brady begs leave respectfully to decline' the Duke of Leink4r's incitation to attend the meeting at Morrison's Hotel, being . unified that no such select assembly can And means' to discountenance effeettillY the agitation of this measure, and that this end can be attained only through the wisdom of the legislature, promptly' etc:caned in re dressing the numerous grievances of this country. • - • • isfEco-Dasass .

Our fickle climate, yet with all its faults one of the safest and best to live in, his, during the current month rendered us good amends for its former wayrardnesa. Indeed, Wit body of farmers been constituted atmospheric regulators, they wild not possibly have chosen wee. they more suitable to the operatione nf latter harvest, including every species of produce, and to the most important process of wheat sowing, than such as we have been blessed with during the whole of the -three weeks past. The change occurred on the 4th instant, a dry and generally cool' temperature succeeding with north-west or northeast winds, yet alternating with a considerable degree of solar beat. This state of the atmosphere, the wind about the 19th veering to the south and west, and producing delightful weather, has had the most beneficial effects upon all the corn, puke and seeds abroad, drying and hardening that ; and abo 'upon the heavy lands, rendering them accessible and, friable, and adapted to the operations of the season. Great apprehen.l sions are entertained of the prevalence of the slug, after such continual rains. EEarlly in the month whcat.sowing became general, where har. vest was finished. sod has proceeded throughout apparently with a de termination to make the most of a season so favourable. According to -genera report, a great breadth of wheat, that most precious crop, will be sown this year too much, if not the greater part, upon land in a very foul, unfit, and disadvantageous state for its reception. It is still the re. calved opinion that wheat will prove a fair average throughout the three kingdoms, the quality various as the masons have been, anti the soils upon which It was sown. Oats are now ascertained to be the most exuberant crop. Barley is in sufficient quantity, but, in some dis trict', nearly three parts of it is stained. and of Interim quality, though fortunately but little grown or sprouted. Potatoes, with some excep tions in the north, come well out of the ground on-all proper soils, and their husbandry is nearly finished. Of seeds there la nothing to detail ar present, but that of late the weather has been highly favourable fur them, and that much clover was left for seed. Of that precarious ar.' tide the hop, the quantity will be as great as could be expected - from al season like the past; namely, about half an average crop, fine quality, at no rate abundant. The stock of old hops of late-years seems geneially to have been very considerable, and such they are at present. Twenty pounds per cwt. have hoen given for the finest Farnham Imps ; common price 81. to 121. We have observed some Swedish turnips promising, but in general that root is deemed a failure as also is col. seed. In some parts the backward growth of the turnips appears, in • great mea. sure, attributable to deficient culture. Of beans the crops Will be large, both in pod and straw ; but although this pulse when shocked and tied takes less harm in the field from rain than any ether produce, yet much of the crop la too damp and soft for immediate use, and will be kept until spring, with more advantage stacked abroad than in the barn. Of peas the early judgment was correct; they are on the whole the most 'deficient of this year's crop. Marigold, or cattle beet, perhaps the ' smallest breadth which we have had of late years, looks at present in a healthful state. Winter vetches (tares) sowing in vast quantities, for spring feat which it may be expected will be an article in great *quest. Mugatins. Zafr RSPOIIIT: • COURT OF CHANCERY—Nov. 1.

This eause,which has been so often before this Court, and with the facts of which the public are already acquainted, came on spin this morning, upon an application for a supplemental injunction to restrain 'the defendant from completing the new sluice, or cut, from the defend. ant's mills (called the " Town Mills") to the river Medway, and from making any new cut, sluice, or slip, from the said rWs , Which might tend to injure or obstruct the navigation of the river.

NICHOLLS' Mr. Biotrottax stated that this was an action to recover compensa tion in damages for an injury sustained by the plaintiff at the hands of the defendant, by a libel published by the latter. The plaintiff had published a work of great labour and expense, entitled " Heraldic Visitations and County Genealogies." In reviewing this work in the " Gentleman's Magazine, the defendant had thought proper not only to attack the plaintes private character, but also to impugn the character of the wutk, which he described as not having been compiled from au thentic sources, and in fact that the genealogies it contained were not true ones. He (Mr. Brougham) would prove that the pedigrees had been many of them composed and presented by members of the families• tl 'nutlet' from family record., and that others had been composed from registers and monumental inscriptions. The Learned ('ounsel, after some remarks on genealogy, and the rights that a reviewer ought to as , mime. put in the libel in question: After the libel had been read. Mr. Baotroxam called several wit nesses to prove that .Mr. Berry had been for several years employed In the Herald's College as itts„;istrar's Clerk; and also to proic that use pedigrees were fouhded in truth. The A TORN cv. Gs x c nat. in reply ' observed, that his learned friend had favoure d the Jury with a dissertation on the art of Heraldry, and in accordance with his well known, and venatile talwt, had also favoured them with a long dissertation on the art of reviewing.—( A laugh.)' He (Sit. J. bcarlett) could not help obeening, that at the re viewer who had reviewed the plaintiff', work had touched tenderly on his bung hi thought that, by his learned friend's lecture, a reviewer had no right touch his own work tenderly.—(Laughter.) It was only b 7 the modal!, that the practise, said to be pursued by certain very clever publications published quarterly—he did cot mean by that name The Quargerly--in which some very, clever critical articles had appeared, and had Wen ascribed— • Mr. Bibussnale, in a tone of great anger, " Falsely ascribed— Falsely." „ • • Sir J.

Scaimmirr friend says " falsely I " I did not mean to ire. ;Wye it to him, but it would appear he knew something about it. The -leisined Counsel then contended in defence, that the review was in fact just, as the pedigrees of theplaintiff were imperfect with regard to dates. tic. and also that the plaintiff had not proved his case sufficiently to entitle him to a verdict: 1 • Lord TEter minim in summing 'up, left the following question to the Jury : et Whether the alleged libel was falsely injurious to the chancier of the Islaintlff?" . - Tile Jury returned a treidk: for the Defendant.
