It ar pears that se long ago as the litth of Queen 'Elisabeth, other means besides the barbarous instrumentality of the sword were contem plated as essential to the maintenance of an Eighth and Pro testent power is that Island. Rdhcatien, free of expense, was pro vided by law—that is to say, by an authority not perfectly enforced, nor, coosequently, much respected, throughout. Ireland, by an act for the "erection of free schools," one of which was to be in each of the thirty-four dioceses of the kingdom, now held by twenty-two Archbishops and Bishops ; and that " the schoolmaster should be an Englishman, or of the English birth of Ireland;" and moreover that the expense of these welt-intended establishments should be borne, one-third by the Bishop of the diocese, and two-thirds by the remainder of the Clue,. In the reign of King Witruu an Act passed, stating that the former Act had failed to produce the desired effect, and that it should thenceforth be strictly eat/reed and executed. Notwithstanding the enactment of several laws for the further advancement of this object, from the reign of Wausau to the 46th of °maim 111. include., it was found by a riven from the Board of Education, published in the year ISO*, diat only Is effective schools then existed throughout the 54 above- Millttioned dioceses, and that the whole number of scholars therein rotated did not exceed 560! The highest salary allotted to the masters, so late u the year MO, did not amount to more than 401. per annum. Some were so low as 45/. By an Act passed in the 115 d Games 111. many important provisions were made with a view to the more completely realising this system ofeducatice by tie establishment of free diocesan schools. Among these provisions ache above law, was one for empowering the Grand Juries to levy 60 their respective counties whatever sums " they should think proper." towards building or repairing school-houses where re quired - and the working of this clause is, foe a serious subject, not altogether without amusement, inasmuch as the Commissioners, lo the year Ifle6 (the present Gentlemen), are compelled to report to the Limo Wormiest: that the Grand Juries in assay Counties did not " think proper" to raise my sums at all, for such an unworthy object ! After a fuU and minute sccount of each diocese in the kingdom, as to the condition and circumstances of the school, the Commissioners wind up with an elaborate serhts of suggestions and retontrnendadons for an extensive system of public schools in Ire land, the details of which would not interest, nor much enlighten, a reader pramically unacquainted with that country.

OXFORD COMMEMORATION. OXFORD, Maul The Oratorio yesterday aitersaaaratisastreissely attended. The Theatre, which felatains, when full, three thousand person% was &warded in all the parts mist favourable to the hearing - of the perforMance:— The Ladies being in full dress, and all the Members of the University to their academicals, the appearance of the assemblage was very imposing. The building is not favourable to musical effects, and the warm weather rendering it necessary to ,hare all the windows and doors open, added to its common disadvantages. The Orchestra hts been erected upon this occasion by Mr. HAIM/ILL. Miss STZPHIINS sang her songs with the purity of feeling and expression worthy her highest reputation. Mad. CARADORI also executed some of the pieces which Mrs. SALMON originally sang, with much ability. PHILLIPS gave his bass songs in that finished • and chaste style in which he is without a competitor. Mr. TAILOR was also very effective in displaying the fine quality of his voice. Mr. VAUGHAN, and Mr. and Mrs. Kavvirrv, gave the valuable assistance of their best exertions to the general effect. Dr. Curren infused great spirit into some of the best parts of his fine work, by his masterly efforts at the organ. After the close of the Oratorio, there was a general ball for God save the King from the audience, which was then performed with the usual honours. The BaU given at the Town Hall in the evening was numerously attended, and the arrangements of the rooms, refreshments, ate. were highly creditable to all under whose management that part of the public en• tertainments had been placed. At an early hour this morning Oxford was alive with the bustle of preparation. Carriages were constantly arriving from the surrounding country, and all was anxiety as to the means of obtaining good places io the Theatre to hear the *ration from the Professor of Poetry, and the recitation of the Prize Poems.—Very judicious regulations had been printed and circulated, with a view of preventing confusion in admitting to the Theatre. The gates pointed out for the admission of the parti cular classes were beset long before the time; and it was with some difficulty that Ladies of tained a passage through the Great North Iron Gate, where the consta• bles had a hard task to maintain themselves against the impatient attacks of the Under Graduates and others. When the hour appointed for the geneial admission arrived, the rush was tremendous, and the Theatre was instantly full. Upon these occasions the junior members of the Uni. versify are in the habit of indulging in expteuions of feeling towards the different authorities, and it is easy to understand that those whose duty it is to impose re strictions or severe regulations, are n o t a l w ay s the m os t popular. The proceedings are now going on amidst frequent and no rely measured interruptions of that nature. But beyond this common cause of excitement, the political feelings of the University are being mani fested in the warmest possible manner towards Mr. Pam., who is present. The cheering, and the shouts of his name, are deafening in the interior of the Theatre, 'and resound through the streets to a considerable dis. tante; they ate continually renewed and excited to greater enthusiasm, by individuals calling out Mr. (Lumina's name in different parts of the Theatre.

'to be certain on this point, Mr. Robert Humphrey Manta and Mr. Hartle, two very active and efficient Members of the IlJard, yesterday vi-ired the Welk:, for the pur pose of inspecting them. There is still, in the Wm , - diate neighbourhood of the shield, about nine feet of water, and it is, therefore, necessary to approach the boxes by means of a boats In this host Mr.-Morten and Mr. Harris seated themselves, and it being a routed. bottomed boat, the slightest jerk, when heavily laden, is calculated to overturn it. On arriving at one of the. openings, Mr. Marten hastily rose, for the purpose of in. specting the brick-work, when his weight so turned the boat that he lost his balance, and was precipitated into the water; but fortunately so near the middle pier of the arches, as to be enabled to seize hold of the plinth (which is a small abutment of the brick-wort), and by this he held until assistance was procured. Immediately on his falling, the boat flew upwards,and threw the whole of its inmates, including Mr. Hairis, into the water s on the other side. Dowling, a youth engaged on the works, was the last person who remained in the boat; but finding it rapidly sinking, he too *cured himself by clinging to one of the brick openings. A scene of the greatest alarm and confusion ensued. The names of the persons known to be in the boat were called over, and all answered but a man named 3. Richardson; fortunately, another boat was in the arch, and while this proceeded to rescue Mr. Marten and Mr. Harris, Mr. Brunel, jun. and Mr. Gravat threw off their clothes, and, accom. panied by a man named Short and another, jumped into the water, and kept swimming and diving to discover what had become of Richardson. The't efforts were, however, unavailing, until the arrival of the dracs of the Humane Society ) when he was found ; but having been upwards of ten minutes under water, no hopes wereenter tamed of restoring anitnation. He was carried into Mr. Graeaes private moue, and the usual remedies resorted to, but without effect. Mr. Marten and Mr. Harris, on -being extricated from their perilous situation, which was effected by means of theit clinging to the stern of a boat which was forwarded to them, retired to Mr. Brunet's house, and' after receiving proper medical . assistance, wrapped themselves in blankets and went to bed. Mr. Marten, though not in any danger, suffers very materially; the suddenness of the shock has bad a very strong effect upon his frame. Mr. Harris was much less affected. A fire broke out in the Opera House on Tuesday afternoon, which threatened destruction to the whole edifice.
