ics to be fought in the tentedfield, the qualities demanded for a leader would no doubt be very different. The object in that case would be to deliberate and not to divulge, and to employ the powers of the mind in discovering the means of acting with effect against the enemy, rather than in seeking to produce an effect on friends. But the battles which the Catholics are now called to fight are battles wide: the forms of the Con stitution ; there C , i% be no concealment from the enemy, for friends can only be acted on by means which are equally open to the cognizance of the enemy. Mr. O'Connell, of all men living, seems the best adapted for the direction of such a warfare. He possesses great experience of business, great bodily strength and animal spirits, a restless activity, and excitability, which render the agitation, furnished by the state of Ireland, necessary almost to his existence. He -seems to have an instinctive knowledge of this necessit , „ and to be aware that his happiness is bound up wish his popularity. Hence the promptitude with which he meets every attempt of the numerous open or concealed rivals in the Association to deprive him of his as cendancy. His faults are essentially connected with the qualities to which he is indebted for his influence and popularity. For ilistane, in the Report to which we have alluded, he ex presses himself with a degree of bitterness against the Press in general, on account of the opposition of a part of the Press to one c) his schemes, while cool reflection might have suggested that without the Press, which is his only means of communicating with and influencing the people, he would never have a7tained his present popularity. But then, wi:h less irritability and sensitiveness, and more equanimity, he would not have pos.- sessrsi that restless activity which so peculiarly qualifies him for the first place among the Catholics of Ireland. - We consider the Catholic cause identified with Mr. O'Connell, and the manifestation of any mean jealousy of his ascendancy at a moment in which he is about to appear [.-song us as the representative of their cause, or any lukewarmzess or want of devotion towards him, to br.: treason towards the Irish nation. That O'Conneii is proud of the elevation to which lie has been raised, is allowable. That in devoting himself to the cause of his countrymen, he has. not been insensible to the distinction of occupying the most prominent phce in the eye of his countrymen, may well be believed. This is not the question which ought to be asked at a time like this. The question is, has Mr. O'Connell seriously in view the emancipation of his countrymen from the bondage under which they now suffer ; and is he the man who, from his qualifications, is best enabled to fill the sta tion to which he has been elevated by the suff rage of his nation ? We firmly believe that he wishes sincerely the good of his country, and that there is no man living better qualified than himself to promote that object. Had lucre been his object, he would have devoted his whole time to the practice of a lucrative profession. But the intense earnestness with which he has devoted himself for years to the service of the Catholics, proves, at all events, that lie is more ambitious of fame than of lucre. We have no doubt that from the constitution of Mr. O'Connell's mind, he would he miserable were lae not at the helm of Catholic affairs. But this necessity is an additional reason for all good Catholics rallying round him. He cannot, if he would, betray them. The applause of his countrymen is as necessary to him, as his activity is necessary to them. There is one reason for determining all good Irishmen to rally round O'Connell, and that is the peculiar hostility which has always been ex pressed towards him by all those who are the declared enemies of Ireland. The abuse of O'Connell from such a quarter is signicant. The praise and abuse of an enemy are not to be neglected. We may be sure, that if it had not been felt that O'Connell had been a formidable enemy to the ascendancy which would wish to perpetuate the degradation of Ireland, he would not have been the constant .object of their in, vective. Once more we say—let all mean jea lousies be laid aside at this int_: neat. He that is not with us is against us—he that is not with O'Connell at this time, is not with Ire- The Surrey Magistrates have done themse4 es great credit by their recent determination to lay before Government their views of the immoral and mischievous: effects of the Game Laws.— Country Magistrates are just the persons, of all others, who, is they will allow their minds to he cleared of the mist of prejudice by which they have i!itherto been clouded, ought to feel and know, even more, perhaps, in one sense, than the actual sufferers themselves, the sad effects c-. 1. a system, of which they are the organs. Every one who knows anything of mankind must have learned that they are best got at through the medium of their interests ; and how the land owners of England can have been so blind to their interest as to have suffered such a drain upon their purse-strings, as the Game Laws hare long been, to exist, we are totally at a loss to imagine. Country gentlemen, in their double capacity of landowners and Magistrates, have been unfortunately the main abettors of this . iniquitous system ; and this example, therefore, of a contrary spirit, late as it comes, is both cheering and consolatory. Seeing, as they must do, the gaols crowded, the poor and county rates increased, the labourers every day becoming more and more demoralised, our only wonder is how they could so long have suffered such a mass of experience to have had so little infiu er.a.t upon their conduct as to allow.tben to stand quietly by, the silent and inert witnesses of an evil which they might so long ago have re medied. It seems to be from custom, rather than from any season or necessity, admitted that no measure, on which there are two opinions, can be got through Parliament without being adopted by the Administration of the day. It is in vain to point out the folly of this, or in quire why - Parliament should subject itself to an imputation of dependence or of influence, where neither need exist. It is sufficient for our , present purpose to know that tne tact is so ; and the constant failure of every at tempt to modify these odious laws shows, we fear, be and a doubt, that, until taken up by Parliament, each future attemlit is likely to be equally fruitless. The Surrey Magistrates, there fore, in a body, calling upon the Government to interfere to stop this tide of mischief, are doing that, which is most likely to be effectual. Whe ther they will be followed by the Magistrates of other counties remains to be seen. We trust that they will, though we are not very sanguine that those who have so long, been blind to the exist ence of this enormous 'evil ill suddenly have their eye-sight renovated by the light which the Surrey Justices will have thrown upon the sub ject. This one appeal, however, from one of the first counties of the kingdom, will at least force the subject upon the attention of Govern ment ; and lead, we trust, to its being taken up, during the ensuing Session of Parliament, under a sanction and an influence which must insure a reform of an evil which is, at present, little better than a pestilence.—Morning Herald. The City is at the present moment as free from political rumour as from the mania of spe culation, to which it has occasionally shown some symptoms of returning; but other ques tions are canvassed in it with a degree of keen ness wholly unwonted of late, and fears enter tained which have more reference to the general interests of the country than City discussions generally have. In other words, although the Exchange is now haunted by fears of' an ap proaching panic, those who frequent it .seem to have been infected with a sort of slow fever, aris ing from the fear that our gold currency is taking flight to the Continent, and which, if it does not • produce the same direful effects as the former, and is slower in its operations, is not less baneful to commercial confidence, sad public credit. Of all the fears, however, which have ever haunted the ;Minds of the mercantile community, this is de cidedly the most groundless and silly. The im portations of foreign grain, however they may appear in the outset, are a matter on which all classes ought rather to felicitate themselves than to entertain groundless fears; for there need be no dread of our continental neighbours either locking up the sums which they receive from • us in exchange for their graM, or of their pre venting others, into whose hands they may pay it, from returning it to us in the purchase of other commodities—except in the case of panics, or extraordinary gluts, almost amounting at their momentary consequences to panics, the currency of' either gold or silver never exile , riences any check. Its characteristic is universal circulation ; and though the route which it adopts in order to return to its first holder be sometimes circuitous, it does always return. — Nay, more, as has been remarked to us by a cor respondent, the usual course of " trade, in every instance in which foreign markets have been open to us, has always brought back the money which has been exported in pro portion to the rate at which it was sent abroad ;'• so that, instead of being never returned to us, the more quickly and freely we have parted with it—the more rapidly and freely has it returned, and- in almost every instance been accom panied with a rise of prices at home—the agricultural labourer, however strangely it may sound, being generally the first to feel the be nefit of an importation of corn from abroad— the manufacturer following in due course—and the merchant in every instance reaping the fruits of a capital amply employed, and yielding fre quent as well as profitable returns. In short, as cur correspondent has remarked, neither the wages of labour, nor the profits on capital, have ever decreased in consequence of the purchase of' foreign corn ; but, on the contrary, have al ways fallen in both cases %%believer our foreign trade has been shackled by an anti-commercial policy, and the intercourse between this island and the two continents been interrupted by such measures as the American tariff', which, in in. : l uring us, does still greater injury to the coun try from whose legislature it has emanated.— We might extend these observations to almost any length ; but we trust we have said enough to convince the reflecting portion of the com munity, that of all the fears which could pos sibly be entertained, that of our falling short of a gold currency, in consequence of the impor tation of foreign grain, is the most shadowy and baseless. We augur, in fact, from the present importations, both a rise of wagon to the work man, and an augmentation of profit to the mer chant and.manutacturer. The result would of cause be".widely different were the gold which is now exported to be expestded on foreign arma ments or foreign wars , but even in that case, commerce and industry would receive a tempo rary stimulus from it.—Morning Advertiser. Every man who has the interest of the at heart must have felt the necessity of recalling the Marquis of Anglesea from the Vice-Royalty of Ireland. The encouragement given to the factious Association, which the Noble Marquis (by his letter) seems to regard as a constitutional assembly, contradistinguished from a legal one, was any thing but an act of good faith towards the English _Ministry. The measures of the Noble Marquis were compromising, and time serving, and any thing but calculated to re stole tranquillity in Ireland. The Irish people are disposed to be quiet and industrious, if the Agitators and 'their priests would allow them. But it would appear as if the interest of the latter could not tolerate quiet, for then they would sink into their proper -insignificance. This, at all hazards, must be avoided ; and to this source, more than to any other, do we owe the mischievous existence of the Popish Parliament in the Irish capital. The people of Ireland enjoy all the blessings of our Constitution and Government which are avail able to their condition ; and if they are kept out of a few political privileges, the grivance is rather fanciful than real : the Irish landlord, farmer, and manufacturer, have all the advantages of our colonial markets, and in the whole of our extended empire from east to west. There is no dis tioction made be tween English and Irish industry in any part of the kingdom or - its dependencies; and the marts of this country are impartially opened for the produce of their land, their la bour, and their looms. Our army and navy is an ample shield for their protection ; while the hand of taxation lies more lightly on Ireland than upon almost any other country in Europe, and we would not be far out of the way by saving in the whole world. But it may be asked, how will you govern Ireland ?—will you grant the Agitators what they demand ? Certainly not ; and for the most plain and intelligible reason, that they form no part of the necessary condition and happiness of the great bulk of the people of that coun try ; and we are persuaded that from the moment the Catholics are admitted into political power in this country, the downfall of our Pro te: taut Constitution will commence, and the Nun of England's glory- will set for ever. Send the to a Lord Lieutenant who will govern them as they ought to be governed, by trampling down the seeds of rebellion, and manacling the Agi tators by the strong arm of the law. Emancipa tion such as the Priests and their colleagues arc now calling for, is a dreadful farce—nothing more than a mountebank trick got up by a few, with a view to deceive the British people. Morning Post. • On Sunday week, the sexton of Dewsbury Chureh,on entering that sacred edifice about six in the evening, saw, in his "mind's eye," the late Mr. Twig, of Earl's Heaton, who was interred about three months ago, sitting in the pew which he fAinerly occupied in the church. The sexton's occasionee, by this proof of the insufficiency of his.. labours to confine the dead, was such that he immediately took to his bed, where be still remains.—. York Chronicle. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION.HOUSE. Isaac Lee was brought up for further examina tion, charged with embezzling 7501., the property of his creditors, he having been declared a bankrupt. There was not any fresh evidence gone into to &+y. The bankrupt was apprehended just as he was about to embark for America by a. vessel sail ing from Liverpool; and the way that he accounted for the 780/. was, that he had paid it to a man named Davies, of whom he Had bought goods to that extent, and he produced an invoice. Davies's son, who had the management of his father's accounts and affairs, declared the invoice to be a spurious one---for no such transaction ever took place—but his father was too ill to attend. The father was not in attendance. to-day ; and the prisoner's solicitor pressed hard for his dis charge; but 'l2tie solicitor for the prosecution declaked that Davies was purposely kept back. He was of the Jewish persuasion, and did not like to give evidence against the .prisoner, who was aISO a Jew. The LoRD MAYOR said the charge was of a very weans nature—indeed it was that of a capital felony ; and therefore he cuuid not consent to set the prisoner at liberty without having ample The prisoner's solicitor suggested that two sureties for 401. each would be crate sufficient. The LORD MAYOR—Oh no I I shall require bail for at least 1,0001. for his appearance at the next Sessions.- After considerable desultory discussion, the prisoner was remanded until Monday. MARYLEBONE. On Thursday the evidence of a Mrs. Poole was taken against Frederick Byrne. In November she kept a house in Howard -street, Strand, and about the `zOth the prisoner called to see a suit of apartments which she had to let. She rook him up stairs, ar - 1 he expressed himself saris lied with them. He said they were for his uncle, and he would call again. 'Made he was up stairs, a fair yountg man, who had called before to see the same apartments, came to the house, and was shown by Ole servant into a parlour. He stayed there by himself two or three minutes, arid then abruptly went away, and took with hint four table-spoons, two dessert-spoons, and six tea-spoous, all of silver. In the evening Byrne came again ; he went into the parlour while the servant called Mrs. Poole down stairs, and as she approached the door of it, he came out in a hurry, and appeared much confused, and said, " I can't give you a decisive answer till to morrow ;" arid directly after he was gone, she rnisse4 a gold watch which she had just taken from her side, and placed in a mahogany case upon the man tel-shelT, and she never saw him again till he was ap prehended; and these circumstances so distressed her mind, that she gave up housekeeping, and sent her servant, who also could have identified Byrne, back to her friends in Ireland. Byrne told Mr. Hoskins he had nothing to say ; and he was committed to Newgate for trial under two charges of felony, and three of larceny. The fair young man told Airs. Poole he was a lawyer in the Temple. There is no doubt he was in confederacy with Byrne, and the police are looking after him. REMINGTON AND CO.'s BANKRUPTCY. At one o'clock yesterday an immense number of persons assembled in the First List of COrnmissioners' room, and in the hope of affording more accommoda tion the Commissioners immediately adjourned to the room in which the Second List usually sit, it being considerably larger, but almost instantaneously that apartment was crowded nearly to suffocation. At half-past one, Mr. Byrig, M. P. for Middlesex, made his appearance in the space where the Com missioners sit to prove, which he did for uptvardg, as lye understood, for 1,0001. Sir G. HAmPsos observed, that he was sorry to see the Hon. Member on that occasion. Mr. BYNG smilingly said, he was a little snfferer, but he could not help it. Sir E. CODRINGTON presented himself at two o'clock. His presence excited great interest. He proved for 1,534/. A Mr. GREENWOOD from Hampshire attended with his attorney, and strenuously urged permission to prove a debt of 16,6051., but Mr. Montagu objected to it. The attorney thought no objec tions could be raised to the validity of the debt that might not be answered in five minutes. Mr. Mon tagu was sure then that they would be " Chancery minutes," because he was in,tructed to raise every Obstacle in the way of the proof being made. The question would be, whether this would have to be eons'dered a separate or joint debt; and under the circumstances, tTr. Montagu thought he would be able to persUade ti►e Commissioners that Mr. Green wood had made himself the separate creditor of Stephenson. Mr. Greenwood was finally informed, that if he would attend a private meeting of the Assignees to-morrow in Chancery-lane, at one o'clock, his account should be investigated. A great number of debts were proved, constituting in the whole we should suppose from 70,0001. to 100,000/. Sir GEO. HAMPSON considered it fair to suite that by a calculation, the petitioning creditor had made it appear that the debtsamounted to 425,0001., to which would have to be added sums abstracted by Stephenson, for which the firm was likely to be liable, to about 70,0001. To meet this, there were assets in cash securities, good debts, amounting to 350,0001.; and by this it appeared, said Sir G. Hampson, that there would 1: , ! from 12s. to 14s. in the peund paid. Messrs. Wm. Saltair, George Robertson, Wm. Strachan, and Wm. Crawford, were chosen Assignees without opposition. It was then declared that the next public meet ing would take place on the 13th of next month, at one o'clock. Mr. Remington sell. was in attendance, sitting in a most dejected condit;un. In the course of the business there was un an nouncement g-iren that there were pickpockets pre sent. One gentleman stated that he had got his pocket turned inside out, and 10/. taken out of it ; another said he had hie purse stolen with its contents; and a third, that he had been robbed in the room of four sovereigns and some silver.

An elderly female, well known to the police of, the metropolis, ‘vho passed tinder the various names of Fosg, Edwards, Lloyd, Jones, Anderson, &c., and the means of whose subsistence are constantly ob tained under false pretences and supplied by swind ling, was_ yesterday brought belore the, sitting Ma 2-istrate, Mr. ROGERS, from one of the watch-houses, charged as under : _ _ It appeared that on Thursday afternoon this Mrs. Sarah Foss, &c., who is generally attired very fa shionably, and under this exterior, joined with insi nuating manners, the more easily practises upon the unsuspecting credulity of those whom she intends shall be made the dupes of her artifice, accompanied by a female servant, went to a private house, No. 20, Castle -street, Oxford-street, and pretending that she had arrived from Bath, engaged two furnished apartments at two guineas a week, and immediately calling fur pen, ink, and paper, wrote what she pre teMded to be a note to the coach-office for her lug gage, and. sent it by her own servant.: In the course of the evening she went out, and applying to several tradesmen and shopkeepers in- the neighbourhood of Castle-street, gave orders for a variety of articles of wearing apparel, spirits, provisions, Sc.e., to be sent to her lodgings, and which orders were for the most part executed. A peculiarity of manner, however, soon excited some suspicions £l5 taller real character in the breast of her landlady, and accordingly - when she and the female who attended her next went cut together, they were watched, and their steps tracked into a hodse somewhere in the neighbourhood of Cromer -street, Somers-town. Here she was taken into custody, charged with obtaining the above fur nished apartments under false pretences, and, what is something remarkable, the entire of the property, ordered by her. from the various tradesmen above alluded to, to be sent to Castle-street, was here found deposited. • She, was ordered for re-examination on W7ednes day next. T. Sullivan t:•as charged on suspicion with rob bing Mr. William Fountain, wine and brandy mer chant, Rathbone-place, Oxford -street, of his gold watch and appendages, value 40 guineas. Mr. Fountain stated, that on Thursday afternoon, between five and six o'clock, he was passing the corner of Brook-street, Holborn, When three fellows rushed upon him, one of whom suddenly grasped tlic; clon of his watch, and having succeeded in drawing the watch put . of his fob, the three fellows ran-. off in the direction of Brook's-market. He (Mr. Fountain) pursued the fellow who had robbed him through Bell-court into Gray's Inn-lane, where he overtook and seized him ; but at this moment he contrived to deliver the watch over to another of his associates, who stood by, whom he (Mr.'Fonntain) also immediately seized hold of, but, after a violent struggle, both the fellows got away, and succeeded in taking the watch with theni. Waddington, one of the officers, stated, that npon receiving information of the robbery, and a descrip tion of the persons of the tobbcrs, he made inquiries after them, the result of which was, that he under stood the prisoner was seen to have the watch in his possession: The prisoner denied the charge; but said, that when the robbery took place, he was present, and assisted the gentleman in the pursuit of the fellows who had robbed him. Mr. Fountain could not identify the prisoner as being one of the party. It was dark -at the time, and a great number of persons were passing in the street. But after a lapse of three quarters of an hour, the prisoner did address him in Gray's-inn lane, during which time he might, if he really had any in the robbery, have changed his clothes, for he did not appear in the dress of any of those who had committed the fact. There were some inconsistencies in the defence of the prisoner, and he was remanded till Wednesday. In a field at Tilshead, several white larks may he been daily.—Devizes Gazette. The other night an unfortunate female, whilst preambulating near Westminster Abbey, met with a per son whom she entreated to accompany her home to her lodgings for the night; to which he at length acceded. They entered into coevcrsation, and, in a very short time, the female uttered a loud shriek, and fell senseless on the pavement. The gallant was in the utmost consternation' to know the cause, and . the watchman, hearing a noise, ran to the spot, when he found the unfortunate girl re covering from her surprise, and exclaiming, " Oh, G o d, my brother."

SUGAR.—The demand for Sugars has been brisk and extensive; the average sales are above 1,000 hhds. each day ; the prices of Sugar from .585. and upwards are rather higher on account of the scar city of the good descriptions ; there has been also an improvement in the request for the brown quali ties, but in the latter there is no improvement, as the holders meet the demand freely, on account of their beirig so long neglected. In Refined goods there is a general improvement, both in the demand and in the prices ; the improvement is particularly in fine goods, lately so much neglected. The quantity of pimps at market is inconsiderable, and the improvement of Is. per cwt. has been fully maintained. The market this afternoon is very firm. Bastards are higher, and in request.

There we,e no public sales of Coffee this forenoon; the inquiries by private contract appear increasing. and extensive transactions would take place, but the holders evince no inclination to sell at the present currency ; some good ord. St. Domingo has been sold at 365. 6tl. a 375. FOREIGN SUGAR.—The stocks of Brazil and Ha vannah Sugar increase.; of the latter :::,000 chests are lately arrived, but no sales of Foreign Sugar have yet taken place. EAST INDIA SUGAR.—There are no sales of East India Sugars to report. Rum, 13RANDV, AND HOLLANDS.—The sales of Rum continue limited to small parcels for shipment; there is no alteration in the prices. Brandy and Geneva continue neglected. HEMP, FLAX, AND TALLOW.—The demand for Tallow has been general and extensive; the holders are very firm, on account of the short import, and the home suppl: ':.eing much more limited there had been generally anticipated.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, J.N. 15. HALTGN, CLERK, fi. COVE, CLBRK. Mr. GEoRGP opened the pleadings. The action was brought to recover the value of the tithes, cry' luments, and profits of the rectory of Woolhansptoo• in Berkshire, from July, 1825, to February, 185.7, which, as alleged, the defendant had wrongful', received and applied to him own use. The defendant had preded the general issue, and a set-off for ‘rorl; and labour, in preaching and celebrating divine service in the parish church of Niroolhemptori. The SOLIetToR-GENURAL stated the plaintifr 6 case. The plaintiff, the Rev. Lancelot Mi:es Haltevs had, in J.;y, 1825, been presented to the rector! d Woolhampton, which was at that time void by the cession of the defendant, who had accepted the carage of Brimpton, in Berkshire, but had wrong fully kept the plaintiff out of possession of his rec tory until Felmtery, 1827. The learned counsel entered into e history of the succession to the patronage of the living from the year 1762 to 1825, when the mother of the plaintiff presented him to it, it being then voidable by the statute of Henry VIII., by which it was eneeted, that if an incumbent took a second living of mord than $l. value in the King's 'woks, such living should be void ; but if less than that sum, then it was only voidable. The defendant having accepted the vicarage of Brimpton, Mrs. Helton presented her son, the plaintiff, to the rectory of Woolharripten , The bishop of the diocess, however, refused to pro ceed with the form of induction so as to complete the plaintiff's title, and a write of quare impedit wass sued out against the bishop, and the present defend ant, who, however, did not submit to it until Fe bruHry, 1827. The defendant having held ( wet from Ji ly, 1825, to February, 1827, and wrongful', keit the plaintiff out of possession, there could be no doub: that the latter was entitled to the profit'-' and emoluments of the living during the whole of that period. The Learned Cousteel then proceeded to give evidence the will of Nirin Deane, by which the jiv ing was entailed on John Deane; also the proeeed ing4 in the action of quote halm - lit, and the presenta tion, institution, and induction of the plaintiff upoo the cession of the defendant.

(From the Glasgow Free Press.) The numerous discussions which have taken place on the subject of the Corn Laws, }move that this country is unfortunately at the mercy 0 1 foreign nations for a portion of the subsistence" of its people, under present circumstances. It evident, however, that if means could be disco vered for preserving the surplus of our crops or potatoes from one year to another, this defect would no . longer exist. Cur readers are aware that we have paid at tention to lids matter for some time, and we are convinced, from our own observation, that the very desirable object above-mentioned has been accomplished. A cheap, easy, imd•simple mean has been found, not only to preserve the surplus of any year's produce of this root, to supply the ,• deficiency of another year, but to render the whole equal in quality, and greatly superior ill quantity to wheat. The manufacture of Potatoe Flour leas made considerable progress ill many parts of Great Britain and Ireland, and we have some eviden6e that it was sold in England, last spring; at the . very moderate price of three-halfpence thepoimd- In France it is prepared on a very large scale: , --. It is stated by Chabral that 40,000 tons of this root are converted into flour or fecule annually, in the neighbourhood of Paris, where it is sold at three farthings a pound. It is true that ia this country it has been hitherto sold highs because there are very few competitors, but it rs daily falling, anti will soon come to its p r 4er level. Sir John Sinclair has paid much atten tion to this object, but his ideas differ materially from those of Dr. Maclean, to whose however, the worthy Baronet bears ample tessti molly in the following passage, which we extract from Sir John's late pamphlet on the culture and uses of Potatoes. There is nothing fanciful or imaginary in this art ; the whole is founded on p!aii and evident facts, of which every man may soon satisfy himself. " There is a very able paper on the subject of the farina of potatoes, in the thirty-first volume. of the Transactions Of the Society of Arts, p. 13, by John Whitely, Esq., of Cork, printed anno 1813 ; but the subject had been in a great measure lost sight of, until lately that it has been revived, in consc (rience of some communications inserted M the newspaper?, written by an intelligent and public spirited physician, (Dr. Maclean,) under the narnir of " Medicos," who deserves much credit for hia at tendon to this most interesting object of inquiry?' We i,kevvise subjoin the following article - O a this subject, from the Edinbitrgh Examiner At a Meeting of the Royal Physical Society of Edinburgh, held on the 13th of May last, Dr. ill`Lean, an Extraordinary Men - :,rr of the Society. read a parl on the advantages winch would result to the country from the manufacture of potatoe into dour. The excellent quality of this farina—the length of time which it may he preserved free from damage—the very remarkable fact of its being proof against the attack of vermin of all kinds—and above all, the Vast increase of food which is created by the chemical change from the ordinary team of the root into floor. This last circumstance, which many of the gentlemen could hardly conceive to be pos sible, the Doctor demonstrated most satisfactorily, in their presence, having actually prepared several dishes of a most delicious pulp or jelly in the public hall, before all the members, and completely proved the correctness of all his assertions on this most im portant and interesting subject, to the entire convic tion of all present. The moat unqualified approba tion rras expressed on the occasion, and the warmest thanks of the society were unanimously voted to the learned gentleman for his valuable communication." BIRTHS.
