His Grace the Duke of Leinster, the Earl of Meath, and Viscount Lismore, as a Deputation from the Farming Society of Ireland, attended by their Se cretary, waited upon his Excellency the Marquis Wellesley on Friday, and presented the following Address : To his Excellency the Most Noble Richard Marquis Wellesley, Lord Lieutenant General and General Governor of Ireland. MAY ll' PLEASE YOE* EXCELLENCY, We, as Directors of the Farming Society of Ireland, most respectfully present to your Excellency a copy of our Charter, by which we are entitled to the valued privilege of calling your Excellency our Patron. And we continently trust, that, under the guidance of such a Patron, the running Society may be made an efficient instrument • of much advantage to this country. Its objects and its labours have hitherto been directed (we hope filleCeaSllllly) to improved ploughing, draining, and irrigating— to the imyortation and growth of seed corn, the dispersion of good iniplements, and the improvement of neat cattle, sheep, and swine. Whatever advancement in agriculture Ireland can boast has been principally effected since its institution, and by ib means. Latterly, the efforts of the Society have been fettered by the limitation of its funds ' under the necessary system of general re tr e nchment. It looks torward, with hope, to better tunes, Una to the wisdom and liberality of your Excellency's patronage. The Society comprises amongst its members inmost all the rank and respectability of the country—ready to co-operate in every exertion towards agricultural improvement which your Excellency, their respected Patron, shall do thou thy honour to suggest. our Excellency's comprehensive mind, whilst it admits the importance of improved agriculture to every country, will in tuitively appreciate its peculiar value to Ireland, Us the most dlixtual means of providing permanent employment for a dis tressed population, and of turnishing to the ease the fun benefit {II her great natural reseuices. To which his Excellency was pleased to return the following gracious answer Under the authority of your Charter, I accept ele honourable charge which you have been pleased to intrust to time, with a high sense of its public iiupoitame. It will be my anxious endeavour to aftind every assistance within nay power to the Fanning society, in the promotion of its useful and salutary objects; and I sincerely 1101 N: teat you may continue to advance tne agriculture of lcrianti,siiii to dill use the spirit of honest industry. It is painful to me to learn, that the efforts of the Society have been fettered by the limitation of its funds, under the sysleril of general retrenchniun lately adopted; and I shall be nappy to avail myself of any proper means of augmenting your mods, consistently with the attention which is due to the strict montany of the public finances. But I cannot omit this opportunity of declaring, that it is nut less my inclination than my bounden duty so give every aid to the progress of that wise and necessary ill, tern of general retrenchment which has been adopted by his Majesty s Government and by Parliament, and which is as essen tial to the true dignity of the Crown, as it is indispensably necessary for the socuril of the State, and for the Ililtattbla slid welfare of the people. am deeply Illiplts,ed with the value and the importance of your Imanution ; and sensible as I must be of the utility of such establishments. in whatever country they may have beetm intro duced, I feel that they are of inure peculiar interest and advan • tage in Ireland—where tile introduction of habits of industrious Inborn is indispensably requisite for the safety of property, and for she happiness of the great body of tilt people. DUBLIN, JAN. 9.—The Marquis of Wellesley held his first Levee yesterday at the Castle. The Catholic Archbishops and Bishops presented an address of congratulation, which his Excellency was pleased to receive in his closet. The Noble Marquis assured the Catholic Prelates, that it 'was ey ilia .114eatg's particular desire they reeived this mark of special distinction. Nothing could surpass his Excellency's urbanity, politeness, and cordiality. It has innate an impression on the hearts of the Bight Rev. Gentlemen present that will nut be speeltily effaced. The address of the Catholic laity was presented by a numerous and most respectable deputation of Catholic Peers, Baronets, and gentlemen, with the Earl of Fingal at their head. This venerable No bleman wore time star and sash of the Order of St. Paula, which mark of favour and distinction he received from the hands of our Monarch, during his late visit It) Ulla cuuutly . Ills Excellency was pleased to receive the address in the must gracious manner. The levee was nuitacrouslyiund brilliantly attend ed. His laccelleacy was most niagnitieently attired •in purple velvet, :Leidy embluultred. At twelve ,~~ : 4 4 o'clock the carriages began to arrive at the grunt portal, and in less than half an hour the state rooms were literally crowded. The carriages conti nued to set down until four o'clock. The appear ance of the streets leading to the Castle during this time strongly recalled to our recollection their ap pearance on the memorable day of the King's Levee in August last. STATE or TIE COUNTRY. A meeting of magistrates was held on the 6.11 inst. to investigate the late t o6rtunate occurrence at Droniore. The Earl of Belmore presided, with great intelligence and impartiality. Several wit nes es were examined. We lament to state, that the last Clonmel papers report several new attempts to plunder arms. Se veral notices have also been posted, and sent to in dividuals in the county of Tipperary against tithes, rents, and taxes. 1t is said that tha special commission will resume its sittings at Limerick on Saturday, and that the judges and crown lawyers will also proceed to Kerry and Tipperary. The following is an extract of a letter received yesterday from a gentleman residing at Omagh : " I have got hold of a famous Captain, who com mandeal too men. who broke into houses, robbed arms, and swore people in the parish of Sydannet. He is a tenant in a property to which I am agent, and has kept the country around in u state of dis turbance for years back. This is the first attempt to rob arms in this county " ORANGE HOMICIDE.-011 Tuesday, the Ist of January, according to an account in the Dublin Evening Poll, a general meeting of the magistrates of the county of Tyrone, among whom were the Earl of Bellmore, Sir John Stewart, Major Craw fbrd, and several others of the most respectable per sons in the county, assembled in the Court house, for the purpose of investigating the circumstances connected with the murder of Michael O'Brien, at Dunmore on the 26th of December. .Ihe entire of Friday, and a great part of Saturday was taken up in the examination of witnesses, whose concur rent testimony clearly proved, that previous to the wanton attack of the yeomen, no riot or disturb once of any kind whatever had taken place, either within or without the house, when the man was killed. Lieut. Hamilton who commanded the corps had been apprehended and taken before slime magis trates, who would have committeil him for the of. fence, had not his father, who is himself a magis trate, most solemnly pledged himself to deliver his son to those gentlemen on Friday, the day of the investigation. On the faith of this assurance he was suffered to remain at liberty, and has escape'l from justice by absconding front the county. Atter the investigation was closed, application was made to the chairman, the Earl of Belmore, on the part of the much injured publican, fur military assist ance to apprehend the offenders. His lordship, however, very properly declined granting it, ob serving that the civil power must be first employed, but that if, utter their exertions, the perpetrators of the crime could not be seeured, he would then endeavour to procure for them the aid of the mili tary. lleductionqf Rents.—The tenants of Mrs.Hankev, of Grosvenor-square, London, who is nearly the sows proprietress of Essendine, near Standiird, having presented their petition a short time back tor an abatement of rent, have this week received, in and swer to it, an unouncement of the generous deter mination of that lady to return . 8(y per cent. upon her rents due at Michaelinas last, in addition to 16 per cent. returned at Lady-day, and that her te nants in Essendine shall nut be called upon tOr the last quarter's rent due at Michaeimas last, until Lady next. One of those tenants who has desired the publication of this gratifying instance cf libera lity, observes, in corroboration of the strict truth of this statement, that his half-years rent has been re duced from 1251. to 521. Ws. (or 661. per cent.) The Roman Catholics of Dublin have voted a congratulatory address to his Excellency the Marquis of Wellesley. Au address trout the liberties of the city was also vated to the Lord Lieutenant, his an swer to which is in the pure of concillasion, and perfectly in unison with the recommendation of the King to all those in authority under his Majesty. — A King's mes,ienger arrived on Wednesday iennight at Limerick, with a respite, directing that the exe cution of Martin and J. Grady, which was to take place on the following day, should be postponed till further orders. This cle menc y , it is hop santred, will hays a salutary effect up on the deluded pea y. A commercial letter of the 26th ultimo, from Trieste, states, that news had arrived there, ben vessel from Smyrna, of an embargo having laid by the 'lulls on all Greek property. Theme was, however, according to the report, no wan! of ships, of different klutopean flags, he Asehill 1360, for the protection of their commerce. ..." v. e.
