A PRIEST'S CURSE.-CHARLES IWLAUGHLIN V. THE REV. LUKE WALSH, P.P. This case was tried at the Carrickfergus assizes on Friday, and excited a great deal of interest. The plaintiff is a miller, of the Roman Catholic persuasion, but being a very intelli gent and excellent man he was in the habit - of reading an Irish Bible to his poor neighbours who only spoke that lan guage. The priest of the parish—Father Luke Walsh—con ceived that this conduct deserved the severest punishment the Church of Rome can inflict, and accordingly, after calling on the plaintiff to desist from his " evil practices" without effect, he excommunicated him by " bell, book, and candle." The immediate consequences were that the poor man was insulted and abused by all whom he came in contact ; others avoided him on the highway as if he were a demon ; and all the Catholics who dealt at his mill left it. Several witnesses were examined, who proved the "curs ing,"—the insults M'Laughlin received after it— and the de struction of his business. The evidence of Charles Collins gave a succinct account of the " ceremony :" Charles Collins, examined by Mr. MB, Q.C.—Lives in the parish of Culteigtrin. Is a Protestant. Remembers go ing to the chapel on the 18th of August, 1844. The congre gation was assembled. Saw defendant there. Did not see any other priest with him. After the mass had been cele brated he heard defendant say that there were different ways of excommunication. He took a letter out of his pocket, which he said he got from the bishop, and said he had let things go on longer than he had authority to do, hoping that the delinquents would come forward and make satisfaction; but he would suffer them no longer. Ha said he would ex communicate plaintiff, Charles Sheals, M'Kay, and Michael Butler. Some persons entreated him not to excommunicate Butler until next Sabbath-day; hemmed the others, and said, " I give my curse, and God's curse, on all who salute them on the road, or eats at the same table, or works in the same field with them." Defendant then turned and blew out the candles, rung a bell, and closed a book which was lying open on the altar. The congregation shortly afterwards broke up. Was taken to the chapel by a neighbour to see the ceremony. Another witness deposed that he saw the defendant take a large book and read to the pele what they were to do afte r they (the plaintiff and others were excommunicated; said they were to hold no communication with Charles M‘Laughlin, Hugh Sheals, Charles M'Kay, John Donaghan, and John M•lntosh; they were not to speak to them, nor eat at the sarne.table, and if they came into the chapel while he was celebrating mass, he would have to stop till they.went out; he then took the bell in his hand, and said, "The curse of God and of Jesus Christ be upon those men, and any person who would have anything to do with them ;" he then ex tinguished the candles; there was a candle on each side of been so friendly to them e foL h e t hpeeop Ipeople excommunication. hae not Mr. NELSON, Q.C. in a speech for the de fence, maintained sthineceal as altar. the that the defendant had ' a right,to excommunicate the plain tiff for contumacious conduct—he being a Roman Catholic, and that he had the authority of the bishop for that proceeding. Verdict —Damages 70/., and 6d. costs. SURREY THEATRE Two new pieces, the one a drama of interest, entitled Ju!ii Is Dru ; or, the City Goldsmith ; the other a broad farce, en titled Tea with my Aunt, were produced here last evening with the most undoubted success. Julie le Dru (Mrs. H. Vining) is the daughter of a City goldsmith, and her hand is sought by the two apprentices of her father. Sand ford (Mr. H. Hughes), the virtuous apprentice, and Hurst (Mr. Maynard), the -vicious apprentice; of course she favours the suit of Sandford, and of course he is perse cuted by Hurst. He is tried, convicted, and con d emn ed for highway robbery, but just as h . e is on the point of being executed, the villany of Hurst is discovered, and to quote a play-bill common -place, " virtue 19 rewarded and vice pu nished." The piece is well constructed, and well acted, and will no doubt draw. As to the farce it is excellent, and we think the management may reckon upon this invitation to Tea with my Aunt being acce pted every evening that my Aunt chooses to be "at home.

After a short stay with the Gallant Admiral, their Lordships proceeded into the Council Chamber, and held a board, at which the Lieute nant-Governor, Rear-Admiral Sir James A. Gordon, C. 8., intro duced the officers of the institutions in their full naval uniform. At three o'clock their Lordships, preceded by the wardens of the hos pital, and accompanied by the Lieutenant-Governor, &c., left the Council-room, and crossing Romney-road, entered the grounds of the Naval Asylum, where the boys, upwards of eight hundred, were drawn up in military order to receive theni, the band playing and colours flying. Lord Ellenborough appeared to pay marked atten tion to the precision and discipline of the young aspirants. Their Lordships' next visit was to inspect the upper and lower schools, dormitories, &e., all of which gave great satisfaction.

At the meeting of the Philosophical Society on Wednesday night, Dr. It. D. 'Thomson read an able paper on the nutritive qualities of Indian corn, which he ranked very high, and at the same time exhibited various kinds of bread and biscuit which had been baked from it by Mr. Wilson; Gor don-street. Some of the specimens were mixtures of maize and wheat, and maize and rice, in which state the loaves can be better fermented than when maize is-used alouei- The bread and biscuits were very palatable and pleasant. Various sties to which Indian corn Sour may be applied in domestic cookery were described, and some of them illustrated on the occasion. In any fortis it is Mem ; parably more nutritious than potatoes, and may, with the smallest amount of trouble and expense, be made an agreeable article of diet. —Glasgow kVA z , . . . • ..,.• A ... ... . pi- ‘ . ~.If‘ i , -- , , i . _ ~., k •telb.,-,.. 1 1 I '4 tl; V • - € l;''' '. - .r...,. - , . 4.; ''''6 • -...-: --..,;. ,A":"* d - ; .

Regret is again most strongly expressed at the still further delay that is given to the passage of the Corn-law Bill through the House of Commons. It is now to be apprehended that it will be the middle or the latter end of next week be fore the measure will be sent up to the House of Lords. Should the same resistance be made there, an incalculable amount of injury must be inflicted upon the trade and commerce of the country. At the same time it must be admitted that very many importers and owners of goods under lock have within the last two days cleared extensive parcels of silks, icc., giving bond to pay the duties, should not the propositions of the Premier be come the law , of the land. The public sales of colonial and other produce are in the meantime checked enormously, which rent and charges are pari passu, hourly in creasing. There was .a very large timber sale at Garraway's Coffee-house, last night, but it went off heavily, as we are informed, for the reason just stated. There has recently sprung up a good demand for bullion for exportation to Hamburg, Itotterdam, Belgium, and else where-of coin to Rotterdam alone, about 16,000 entices were shipped_off in the week ending the 21st instant; and to Bel gium 1,120 ounces-of bars 44,000 ounces in the same period were sent away. and 700 ounces to Hamburgh. The Consol Market has been steady this morning. The Government brokers made their customary purchases. Con sols for Money were sold early in the morning at 95%, but they since advanced again to 96. This has been also the sale value fur the Account. In the Three per Cents. of 1726, there was a purchase made at 95%. Exchequer bills have been done at an advance to 275. premium ; but India Bonds have been rather heavy at 255. to Ns. premium. India Stock for the Account, is firm at 261. Mexican Bonds have remained rather heavy at 31. This is but a nominal quotation however. Spanish Consols are a shade lower than yesterday, being now sold at 25 1 4 to %.

I%IARXTIT NEWS.-(THIS DAY CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY Froli up to market the arrival of English Wheat was again limited, hence the show of samples of that description of produce was trifling. Although the attendance of both town and country millers was small, the demand for Wheat of home produce was steady, at fully Monday's quotations. Very little free foreign Wheat was on offer. Holders were firm and obtained full rates In every instance. Bonded Grain was more sought:after, yet owing to the high prices demanded by the importers comparatively little business was tran sacted in it. Malting Barley commanded a ready inquiry. Grind ing and distilling sorts were unaltered in value. The Malt trade was inactive at previous rates. Oats, Beans, Peas, and Flour as last advised. ARRIVALS. Wheat. Barley. 810 cps. 1,780 qrs.

Wakley, M.P., and a highly respectable jury, assembled in the board-room of Marylebone workhouse, to investigate the circumstances attending the deaths of Robert Butters and his three children. 'olice-sergeamt No. 18 D, described the discovery of the Frederick Brown, in the employ of the Royal Society for the Protection of Life from Fire, said that he had charge of an escape at Marylebene-lane. On the evening of Monday last, as soon as the call went to the parish-engine station, he ran to the fire, and made use of Parker's escape, and went up to the second-floor window. He got hold of the deceased man's arm, but the smoke obliged hint to retreat, and he could not pull him out. The same attempt was subsequently tried by a fireman and a police-constable, but without suc cess. After the lapse, however, of a quarter of an hour or so, he was enabled to go into the room, which was then full of smoke and very hot. The deceased were got out, one of the children was not quite dead, it breathed a little. Witness was certain the child was not then quite dead, as he per ceived its stomach move. 571 i 108% 25% 5% 36% 36% 934 dis 734 1.34 17 .74 1 vv The Court was cleared of strangers, and the assistant to Mr. Timpson was examined; the following is an abstract of the evidence which he afterwards communicated to the re- 1% 143 28 114 41% 8 17% 24% porter : Thomas John Hughes—l reside at present with Mr. Timp son, at No. 6, Union-place, Lisson-grove, North. I pre viously lived at Mr. Timpson's shop in Crawford-street. I used to sleep there. On the night of Monday last, I retired to bed at twenty minutes past ten o'clock, and was awoke by a violent knocking and cracking of wood. I soon found that the place was on fire. I then jumped out of bed, and laid hold of my coat, which was all that I could save. The flames were breaking through the partition of the front shop at that period. I immediately went up stairs to arouse the inmates. I called out "The place is on fire." The smoke being of such an overpowering nature, I ran to the front window on the first floor, but the smoke came in at the window almost as bad as it did from the stairs. I then got on to the balcony and passed from thence on to the blind box of the next house, and got through the shop. I was in my shirt at the time, and the only thing I saved was my coat. I afterwards left, and went to Air. Timpson's, and informed him of the disaster. He was sleeping at No. 6, Union-place, Lisson grove.

Witness—l cannot. 1U 94 46 3014 8% The CORONER—You went to bed at twenty minutes past ten; what time did you go to supper on Sunday night?

Witness—On Sunday night Mr. and Mrs. Timpson called at the shop after leaving chapel, about half past eight o'clock, and they requested me to come home et nine, as they wished to go to bed early on account of being tired. .

ROYAL VISIT TO ASTLEY'S.—Yesterday, pursuant to the "Royal command," a grand hippodramatid entertainment took place at AsUey's Amphitheatre, which was honoured by the presence of her Majesty the Queen, his Royal Highness Prince Albert, his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, and the Princess Royal, ac companied by a brilliant suite. Mr. William Batty, the lessee, fully appreciating the honour, had determined that nothing in his power should be wanting to render the entertainment worthy of its illus trious patrons. The centre box of the first circle was appropriated to the royal party. The ornaments were of the most costly description, and of exquisite handicraft. The box was fitted up with silk Silk tabaret, the prevailing colours being crimson and whit T e, The every porion of the theatre was m ost gorgeously decorated. Foot Guards lined the passages of the theatre, sentries were placed at the stage-door, and detachments in the stable-yard and at the principal entrance in the Westminster-road. The visit was strictly private. Shortly after four o'clock her Majesty and Prince Albert, and their illustrious children and attendants, arrived in three car riages, and were immediately ushered into the royal box by Mr. Batty and Mr. T. Thompson, the stage-manager. The entertain ments, of course, exhibited to the utmost advantage the whole strength and talent of the company. At their conclusion the royal party retired, Dut not before her Majesty and Prince Albert had ex pressed, to Mr. Batty and Mr. Thompson, their entire approval of the general arrangements. her Majesty left the house shortly before six o'clock, after which the doors were opened, and the rush of the public to obtain a view of the box and the other decorations (which will not bo taken down for some time) was terrific. SEED .PoTAToEs.—The following hints by .Dr. Buck land may be used at the present season :—The sets i.hould be planted early, and if the plants continue healthy until the tubers ripen, there will be no danger, because all analogy of fungous vegetable parties shows that their growth follows, and does not precede or cause dis ease. Small tubers should be selected and set entire, as cutting the unripe and dropsical potatoes of last year may endanger their decay as soon as they are put into the damp ground. I would plant even large tuber: entire, but if cut, the sliced parts should be shaken in a sieve of quick lime, until a hard skin is formed over the raw surface, as is often done in Scotland. PEDESTRIANISM.—FOUR - MILE RACE AT BIRMINGHAM FOR 501.—The interesting trial of speed between James Byrom (the Lancashire Runner), and John Tetlew (of Hollinwood), for 251. aside, came off on Monday, ten miles from Birmingham, on the old Coventry maul. The distance measured was from the 97th to the 98th mile stones. Large sums of money changed hands, the Birmingham and Manchester men betting strongly on the Hollinwood hero. At a few minutes to four, all preliminaries being arranged, the men started well together. For the first mile more beautiful 'running has rarely, if ever, been witnessed. The competitors touched the handkerchief and turned for the second mile together. It soon, however, became evident to the eye of the connoisseur that Byrom was running within himself, while his antagonist was certainly going his hardest. Strong running was kept up, which will be best shown by the fact that the men completed the first two miles in 10 minutes 25 seconds, and the second two miles in 10 minutes 20 seconds, Byrom running in a winner by 10 yards only. The stakes were given up shortly after the race, Byrom presenting his defeated rival with a sovereign, and the subscription for the losing man (collected by Temperance) amounting to 51. We wish we could see more of this spirit.

Vansittart, Mr. L. II•11and, &c. ROYAL INSTITUTE OF BRITISH ARCHITECTS.—At the ordinary meeting, held on Monday evening, W. Tite, Esq , F.H.S., president, in the chair, Mr. Poynter read an interesting description of the Church of St. Chapelle, at Paris, particularly in regard to its polychromatic developments. When brought to the rules of the art, they displayed no mean triumph in the allocation of colours, the effect of the coup d'ceil being heightened by the obscurity of the detail. The President referred with satisfaction to the pos session by this country of the celebrated marbles of Baudrau which formed part of. the frieze of the temple, and did not, as was supposed, belong to the tomb of Mansell% and which he attributed to the influence and interference of the Society. Dr. Burnet next read a paper on same moulded brick found iu the Church of St. Soissenes, in Normandy. which led to au interesting disQLseion 011 the menu facture or bricks. FREE TRADE.

A GREAT PRINTING OFFICE.—We copy from Dick inson's Almanack, for 1846, an account of his immense printing-office, in Boston :—" The office of the Rotary Press covers an area of 14,283 square feetoembracing fifteen rooms. It is lighted by day by 1,664 squares of glass set in 100 different windows ; and by night by gas shooting up from 100 different burners. In those premises we have one steam engine of ten horse power, three Adam's power presses, two Napier presses, three rotary presses, two It uggle's job presses, eleven hand presses, two copper-plate presses, two embos sing presses, one hydraulic press, four standing presses, one small power press, two paper cutters, three card cutters, one ink-mill, and four machines for shaving stereotype plates, two of which are moved by steam-power. We have more than4oo different styles of types, borders, flowers, and cuts of various sorts, in weight 30,000 lbs. These are all held in their places by means of 866 type cases, of brass galleys, 200 feet standing galleys, 330 chases, and 3 bushels of quoins. We have two large cisterns, which contain about a 1,000 gallons, or up wards of 18 hogsheads of water. This is distributed through every part of the office, by means of 550 feet of lead pipe. We use six hogsheads of water per.day, which, supposing it was brought in buckets, would take one man 13V 2 hours each day to furnish, allowing him to bring four gallons every ten minutes. Our various presses threw off in the course of the year, 6,069,480 sheets of paper, er 12,645 reams. Sup posing each sheet to be but 2 feet long, and that they were placed in one continuous line, they would stretch out to 15,173,700 feet, or nearly 2,875 miles, about the distance from here to Europe. It is computed that we have printed the past year 130,240,000 pages, of books, 64,000 circulars, 25,000 commercial and lawyers' blanks, 20,000 cheques, 25,000 billets, 500,000 bill-heads, 300,000 shop bills and band bills, and 2,000,000 of labels. We have cut up, printed, embossed, and sold 1,201,520 cards, or 24,030 packs. Our average consumption of coal is over two tons a week, or more than 100 tons a year. Besides our 100 gas burners, we use about 150 gallons of oil for extra lights and ma chinery. For our various printing it takes 1,200 pounds of ink per annum, besides gold leaf; bronze, and size. In our type and stereotype foundry we have used the past year 50,0001b5. of metal, and turned out 7,000 stereotype plates of various sizes and shapes. In our whole establishment we employ usually about 100 hands, and it is safe to conclude that our office affords direct sustenance to at least 500 per sons."—Boston paper. AN ENEMY TO IRON FOUNDERIES.—At the Drogheda assizes a Mr. Harman, who has a domicile in that town brought an action against Mr. Grendon, of the iron foundry, for injury done to his property, in consequence of the ham-, mering which daily goes on in that busy and thriving concern. At a time when Sir Robert Peel is at his wit's end for devising means to feed and employ the Irish people, and when societies, under the highest auspices, are being formed for the same object, it is certainly rich to see a person coining into a court of justice to complain that bis long ears are daily assailed by the cheerful sounds that pro ceed from an iron factory, and that he is flighted from his propriety by the flames of a blast furnace. The jury seemed to be under the impression, that if a hundred more iron foundries were in full play in Ireland, the country would not. be worse cff than it is, and very properly banded down a verdict for Mr. Grendon, the defendant. We do not know what country would suit Mr. Harman's quiet and contem plative disposition. Perhaps one of the Marquesa Islands er a valley in New Zealand, where the spirit of improvement is unknown, would be more congenial to him than the banks of the Boyne.—The World, March 16. PARIS ACADEMY OF SCIENCES, SITTING OF MARCH 16.—The papers read at this sitting were not of much interest. M. Morin read a long notice on the economy effected in the transport of hay for the supply of the army by compression, and of the presses which have been used in France for this purpose. It appears that even with the imperfect means hitherto adopted an enormous saving had been effected in the transport of hay for the cavalry in Algeria, but this probably will be doubled by the use of English presses, which have been recently purchased in England by the French Go vernment. M. Laurent read, in his own name, and in that of M. Gerardt, a paper on a controversy that has taken place between them and M. Liebig, the celebrated German chemist. It appears that these gentlemen dispute many of the conclusions come to by M. Liebig in his researches in organic chemistry, with a ♦iew to their practical application to agriculture and other purposes. The other papers were all on subjects of no importance to the public at large. Her Majesty the Queen will have an evening party at Buckingham Palace on Wednesday next, when, according to the cards of invitatien issued from the Lord Chamberlain's office, it will be a concert of vocal and instrumental music. The invitations were only issued last evening. CABINET DINNER.—The Earl of Ellenborough's en tertainment to the Cabinet Ministers, originally appointed for Wed nesday next, the Ist proximo, has (in consequence of the Lord Mayor's dinner to her Majesty's Ministers) been postponed until the Bth. In the meantime the Noble Earl removes from Charles-street, Berkeley-square, to his official residence, at the Admiralty. ARRIVALS OF GRAIN IN MA.NCHESLER.—On Friday morning, eleven vessels belonging to the Bridgwater Trust arrived from Liverpool, bringing upwards of 300 tons of grain for the Man chester market. His Excellency the Austrian Ambassador and the Countess Dietrichstein give a splendid banquet, on Saturday next, at Chandos House, when Sir Robert and Lady Peel, and most of the Ministers, dine at the Embassy. • ACCIDENT ON THE SOUTH-EASTERN ' RAILWAY.. — Yesterday morning, as the courier was conveying the dispatches, from Folkstone to London, in anticipation of the Overland mail, by special engine,' an accident occurred, which; (though fOrtunately unattended with any serious result) shows the necessity existing that some plan should be adopted by which means the engine might be enabled to clear the rails of an y impediment, wilfully or acct. icliielilietsalflr3o.ipnlaieuediibriiniliztlet,e wtheay.enfrtriagapepviea,Ars., ihtihroaist,,iiilii-hireniiifiabolilitiet,eiiiigliiat m the p ti iii c h e n t i t i te n ii e i es n g , 1 w n e h e Tts , g a o ft i e n r g aa veryvery severe z e i j t o l could f not ro b e stopped see a t t e Ps . iiii4jridohbiyiiirtheficalbdl,e atssi,eis'caanaceiiiogfeewigahstpolarcetdenonlatbohearrersails,wbilittobme•tenrge iinn au an utitit state for use, the courier rode to Tunbridge 'on the engine, where a fresh carriage was attached, and he arrived safely at London.

ROBBERY OF SIR JOHN GUEST ON A RAILWAY. — On Tuesday information was forwarded to the police that whilst Sir John Guest was at the terminus of the London and South-Western Railway, Nine Elms, on the 20th inst., at about one o'clock P.M., he was robbed of four Si. Bank of England notes and some silver. WATCHET.—HUMANE INTREPIDITY.—A noble in stance of intrepidity in the rescue of life and property has been lately per-termed by five sailors belonging to this port, viz. Allen ' Robt. Hole, Thos. Bale, Benj. Woodman. and Robt. Short. During the late gales a schooner appeared off Watchet, with a signal flying for assistance. The gale at this time was blowing with great violence, and it was evi dent that if assistance was not soon rendered, a flood tide would inevitably drive her on the rocks above the port, or on the Gore Sands, then immediately under her lee, and that total destruction both to life and property would be the consequence. It was in this extremity that the five men, with the daring characteristic of British sailors launched their boat amid the cheers and fears of those present. After repeated trials to cross the surf, in which the boat filled several times, the gallant crew succeeded in reaching the vessel, which proved to be the schooner Hydra, from Prince Edward's Island, bound to Bristol. After putting a man on board, to take charge, the boat retarned, apd when within a quarter of a mile of the shore, a violent sea struck and capsized her, and the crew only preserved their lives by great exertions in clinging to the boat, which was driven on shore by the vio lence of the sea and wind. The underwriters of Lloyd's, on being made acquainted with the circumstance, awarded the men 12/. in addition to the sum given them by the owner of the vessel, John Julies Etya 9 ristol.—Sonwriet Cow* , &Atte, // _: ~-:.
