COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. Yesterday a Court was held for the dispatch of much public business. THE LORD MAYOR AND CHRIST'S HOS- VITAL. The TOWN CLELIC stated that he attended at Christ's Hospital on St. Matthew's day, and found that the list of governors had not been 'made out in the proper form; but he wouid direct th?...t a proper list should be made and presented at the *.,ext Court. Some members or, the Court having expressed a wish to be informed, 'whether any misunderstanding existed between the g Jvernors and the Corporation, The LoRD. 4 MArou said that in the list which had been exh;:eited, the name of the Lord Mayor appeared under ';hose of the President and the Treasurer, and that, to he considered such a position was an insult to the Chief Magistrate and the Corporation of London, he bad refused to sit down to the dinner provided at the bor,pital. Mr. ANDERTON said that if all Lord Mayors acted in so spirited a manner, there would be no insult offered to the office.—(Hear, hear.) SCRIPTURE READERS' ASSOCIATION. Mr. WIRE presented a petition from the Scripture Readers' Association, praying for a donation in aid of their funds. The great object of the association was, he said, to aid the clergy of the Church of England in diffusing Christlan knowledge amongst the poorest, and most dese:mte, and most ignorant of the population; and for the purpose of accomplishing that object they were empl A ying persons who were competent to the task of ins,cructing, and were recommended by the officiating e.tergyman of the parish which it would be necessary to visit. The result, be was convinced, would be that a new aspect would be placed upon society.—(Hear.) Mr. R. TAYLOR thought that such an application ought not to be made to a municipal body consisting of individuals of many different persuasions. —(Hear, hear.) The society from which it came was evidently a prosely ling society. If it had come from a Catholic society the Court certainly would not for a moment listen to it. Why, then, should they entertain a petition from a body belonging to any other exclusive church?—(Hear, hear.) Mr. LAWRENCE objected to the application. The petitioners, instead of showing that they wanted money to advance their object, very plainly proved by their statement of their income above their expenditure, that they had no occasion for the assistance of the Corpora tion at all, and moved that the petition should lie upon the table. Dr. LYNCH seconded the amendment. He considered the object of the Association to be partial and proselyting, and altogether at variance with the tolerant and generous spirit' which was daily diffusing itself amongst all classes.—(Hear, hear.) He did not wish to encourage the frantic railing of journeymen shoemakers, and tai lors, and carpenters, who, under the plea of a call from the Lord, uttered all sorts of extravagant folly. Without meaning to give the slightest offence to the gentlemen at the bar, he could not help declaring that he looked upon the plan thus proposed of assisting the clergy as a most bitter satire upon that body. It was telling the lazy dogs that it was actually necessary to get up a secu lar staff to do the duties which they were bound to per form themselves.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. Hanassox said that Mr. Lawrence did injustice to the Association, when he said they were not in want of the assistance for which they petitioned,. It was but a new society, and every one knew that it was the prac tice of patrons to subscribe liberally at the beginning of an institution, in order to give encouragement to the the public to follow the example ; but it would be ab surd to calculate upon the permanency of such contribu tions.—(Hear, hear.) The Association stood in need of assistance in carrying out their object, and he trusted they would receive it most extensively. He regretted to hear the epithet lazy dogs applied to the clergy. He well knew how they laboured, and he knew that it was quite impossible for them to go round to the lanes, and alleys to the poor creatures who required religious in struction. Perhaps in the district of one clergyman there were thousands of poor whom it would be the care of the Association to supply with the instruction which, without such aid, it would be impracticable to administer. Mr. ANDERTON said It appeared to him that the As sociation did not at present need the aid of the Corpo ration. If, at any time, they should be i❑ a condition to require that aid, then they might come forward with a good excuse and good effect.—(Hear.) Mr. BENNOCH thought the ridicule cast upon those who, without being possessed of liberal education, under took to expound the Scriptures, illiberal and unjust, and referred to the great apostolical labours as evidence in favour of their zeal and energy. He was in favour of anything at all calculated to take information, religious or secular, into the miserable, benighted dens of the metropolis.—(Hear, hear.) There was no cant, in his opinion, more despisable than the cant of parsimony, when a fair d rand was made upon the funds of the Cor poration.—(llear, hear.) PEWTRESS said the question was whether the ob ject was a leaitimate object upon which to expend the funds of the Corporation. In his opinion, they had nothing to do with the subject. If the funds belonging to the Ests!dishecl Church were properly disposed of, there would he no need of application to that Court. After some observations from Mr. LOTT, who said there were plenty of poor clerg-ymen well able and willing to do the duties prescribed by the Association, and from othr members, a division took place, when the original eqrriftd, by a na3jority of nine, in a Court MC , t W under the dwellings of the poor, by which means fever, / dysentery, scrofula, and consumption were never absent. —(Hear, hear.) In summer the dead smell from the i vaults was easily perceptible in many of the best churches. People often returned home from them, affiteL d with headaches, vomiting, and fainting fits. The house of God was thus filled with poisonous exhalations. It was in fact a charnal house, and the guardian of the sanc tuary was made by the present abominable system to have an interest in its pollution. There was not accommodation or cubical space for one-fifth of the dead, without re ference to the most disgusting stratagems to get rid of the excess. Within the memory of the present genera tion, upwards of a million of dead bodies must have been interred in London. In some small churchyards there were upwards of 1,200 to the acre. Here Dr. Lynch referred to some of the statements of Mr. Walker and Mr. Kelsey, and to the notorious practices of consuming the corpses with fire to get rid of the excess, and con cluded by calling upon the Court to do itself honour by leaving no effort untried to get rid of an evil so tre mendous.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. WIRE hoped the Court would not be influenced by the gross exaggerations which they had just heard. He wished to know, after all, where the poor were to be buried.—(Hear, hear.) It was well to cry out about the burial-places of the opulent, but where was the body of the indigent man to be taken to but to the churchyard of his own parish ? The Court ought to consider the rights and interests, and privileges of the poor. If the Corporation were determined to aid the poor, let them purchase ground and give it gratuitously for the burial of those who could not afford to go to a cemetery. Mr. LAWRENCE said Mr. Wire must surely know that the parishes must find burial-places for the poor. Mr. BLAKE was strongly in favour of the motion, and pointed to the example of the cities of the days of old, within the walls of which the dead were never per mitted to be detained. The motion to petition Parliament was then carried by acclamation. Mr. ANDERTON then proposed and carried a motion for a petition to Parliament to pass an Act to prevent nuisances arising from the smoke of steam-engines and in buildings in and near London and Westminster. gineers are indefatigable, using their best efforts for the speedy and effectual completion of the works and final opening. IMPROVEMENT ON THE LONDON AND NORTH-WEST ERN.-Of all improvements now in progress on metro politan lines, the most extensive are at Euston-square. About sixty or seventy houses that formed the east side of Whittlebury and Cardington-streets have disap peared; also those in Birchmere-street, and two or three small thoroughfares that lead to it. They hare been cleared away, and labourers are actively engaged in ex cavating the area some fifteen or sixteen feet below the level of the main roadway, so as to carry out the in ter.ded alterations. Spacious warehouses, carriage stores, and repairing buildings are springing up. The principal entrance to the station in Drummond-street will undergo alteration. In a line with it, however, at the south-west corner of Whittlebury-street, a banking or receiving-house is to be erected, and ad jacent to this, at the back, running the whole length of the street, about eight hundred feet, will be formed a station, so as to correspond with the one on the opposite side, both verging into the per manent line. At the end of this edifice nearest Drum mond-street a commodious station, or pavilion, will be built for the express accommodation, it is said, of her Majesty and the Royal Family, when travelling on the line. It will be distinct from the other portion of the terminus, and will be approached by a suitable entrance. The building will be of the Doric order, and its interior will afford an elegant suite of waiting-rooms. Further up the same side of the above street, another entrance to the terminus will be formed, leading to a range of stores for parcels (a new department), and the auditor's office. They will be three stories in height, and in unison with the general style of architecture of the other parts. To the left of the extreme end of this second station, extending over the left of Cardington-street, nearly to the Hampstead-road, and beneath where Birch mere-street stood, immense buildings are in course of erection. One, the carriage-repairing department, is upwards of three hundred feet in length, and 120 feet in width, the roof supported by 50 iron co lumns. There is also a spacious smith factory, with an octagon peculiarly built shaft 80 feet in height to carry off the flues of nine forges. The line of rails leading from the station to what is termed the usual permanent way are being increased to three times their present number, so as to run into the duplicate station and meet the great increase of traffic. This addition has been, effected by removing the bridge which carried Birch mere-street over the line into Seymour-street, and about 250 feet of the bricked embankment or retaining walls on each side. The large workshop on the Seymour street side of the station is to be pulled down, to make way for these improvements. The open quadrangle in front of the present station will be considerably enlarged, and waiting-rooms, booking-offices, and a public vesti bule will be formed in a building of Grecian architecture, to be erected in the centre facing the grand portico, and communicating with the station on either side. These works will necessarily occupy a considerable period. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. WINDSOR, SLOUGH, AND STAINES ATMO SPHERIC.—PROPOSED AMALGAMATION WITH THE SOUTH-WESTERN. WINDSOU, TIIESDA.T.—A meeting of the scripholders in the late Windsor, &c. Atmospheric, took place this day in the Town-hall. Mr. J. T. Bedborough presided, and there were present Messrs. Ridgway, Wreford, Cleave, Oxley, Corfield, C. Norris, Pearl, Minton, Ewens, Clarke, Fowler, Foster, J. and G. Bedborough, Gray, Sm. The following report was read to the meeting:—" The provisional committee appointed at a public meeting of the scripholders, held pursuant to adjournment, at the Guildhall, Windsor, on the 2d instant, have to report the following result of their negotiations with the directors of the South-Western Railway Company and the Staines and Richmond, namely :—The completion of the arrange ment for the amalgamation of the Windsor and Staines, and the Staines and Richmond Companies. The basis of an agreement for a new company, to be called the South- Western, Staines, Windsor, and Farnborough Railway, or some name comprising Staines and Windsor, having for its object the most direct communication practicable from Windsor, Staines, Hounslow, &c., to the London, Richmond, and Farnham portions of the South-Western Railway. Mr. Locke to be the engineer, and to fix the amount of capital (supposed at present to be near one million). The Windsor and Staines, and the Staines and Richmond amalgamated company to subscribe not ex ceeding 350,0001 (their original capital), the remainder to be provided for by the South-Western Company. The shares to be 201.; deposit 21. 2s. The scrip of the Windsor and Staines Company, upon which a deposit of 21. 2s. per share has been paid, to be exchanged, with the balance remaining of such, for scrip in the new company. The past expenses of the amalgamated com panies to be charged to the new company. The directors to represent as near as possible the capital subscribed, namely, Windsor three, Staines four, South-Western eight. Four per cent. interest to be allowed on all paid up calls from the passing of the Act to the completion of the lines. The South-Western to guarantee a rental of four and a half per cent. on the gross outlay from the completion of the line, and one-half the profits, and to have the option to purchase the undertaking, by the transfer of 151. fully paid-up capital in the new company. It is also arranged that the railway approach to, and the terminus at Windsor, shall be made in the locality most approved of by her Majest}'s Commissioners of Woods - I,nd Forests and by the Provost and Fellows of Eton College, and may be used as a common approach and terminus by any other railway company under proper stipulations." The committee, in concluding their report, drew a comparison between the offers which had been respec tively made by the directors of the South-Western and great Western Companies in favour of the terms pro- • posed by the former: The CBAIRMiN then read an amended report from the committee, which detailed at considerable length the proceedings which had taken place at the several !meetings which had been held previously and subse quently to the dissolution of the Atmospheric Company. rhat report thus concluded:—" The committee, in al luding to the proceedings of others, are actuated solely by the necessity there exists for some decisive and united course being at once taken. The committee have named the sum of 1:50,000/. as the amount which corAstinq of €9. INTERMENT OF THE DEAD WITHLg THE - CITY OF LONDON, &c. Mr. ANDERTON rose to move that the Court d( petition both Mines of Parliament to pass an Act to prohibit the interment of the dead in churches and church-yards within the City of London, and other large cities au,i towns, and prevent the violation of graves. Eight months had passed away sine., he had put the notice of motion to which he had callA the at tention of the Court upon the paper. Since that t'rne the,subject had undergone discussion so extensively in the newspaper press, and through other sources of public intelligence, that it became unnecessary for him to enter with any degree of minuteness or particularity into its merits. He expected 9, nnaniraous concurrence on his motion. If he required any lit!e additional testimony in favour of it, that testimony ,vas to be found in the ma gisterial extlminations which had just taken place. (Here Mr. Andcrtou called the attention of the Court to the ;he Windsor scripheltiers shall be entitled to subscribe, that being the amount of the capital of the late com pany; and for this 150,0001. they will be entitled to ap point three directors, being at the rate of one director for every 50,0001. It follows, that if a large portion of the scrip of the late company is abstracted from the company connected with the South-Western, and car ried to the Great Western project, that a corresponding reduction must be made in the number of directors; and an equally correepondmg diminution of the credit and importance of the scripholders, and the interest felt in the undertaking, bill be the result. The CHAIRMAN stated, in reply to questions put to him by two or three scripholdurs., that the number of shares held by directors in the late company who sup ported the plan proposed by the Great Western Com pany was 750; that three directors had given in their adhesion to the South-Western arrangement; and that four directors had, up to the present time, remained neutral. The Chairman further stated that the terms which had been originally offered by the Great Western had been considerably modified since a negotiation had been opened with the directors of the South-Western Company. lie had no means of knowing how many shareholders had agreed to enter into the South-Western arrangements; but he thought he might say the holders of about one third of the shares had consented. Mr. MINTON, one of the provisional committee, stated that ho was strongly in favour of accepting the terms offered by the South-Western Company, considering it would he an act of madness to go on with the project if the Government or the Crown were opposed to them. Even if the authorities of Eton College were opposed to them, they ought, in his opinion, to hesitate, and be ex tremely cautious, before proceeding further. Mr. BEDBOROUGH said the South-Western Railway , Company were determined to endeavour, under any cir cumstances, to get a line into Windsor, whether the holders of the scrip in the late Atmospheric Company joined them or not. After a very lengthened discussion, it was moved by Mr. PEARL, seconded by Mr. J. CLEAVE, and carried, " That the report be approved, and that the following be appointed members of the committee of manage ment for the Windsor district of the new conapany:— Nlessrs. J. J. Bedburough, Samuel Minton, and Caleb Norris." Mr. MINTON again begged to observe that he thought it would be the height of madness to go on if they were to be opposed 'oy the Court and the College of Eton. rev:Ating scene in the Friday-street burial•ground.) Ile asked whether those who surrounded him could quietly 'listen to the unexaggerated descriptions of the horrors which :accumulated at their very doors ?--([Tear, hear.) Could they lock patiently at the violation of graves, st the exposure of the partially decomposed bodies of their fellow-creatures on the dunghill? Could they read the statements made by the sanatory Commissioners, who showed that by burying. the dead amongst us we were scattering amongst the living the seeds of pesti!ence and death—could they read these statements and remain inactive as the corporation cf the great City in which such scenes were daily enacted ?—(leer, hear.) Ile felt assured that he calculated rightly in c4lculating iron their unanimity. In 1';26 the practice of burying the dead a ith;n the City was petitioned against by a clergyman, who represented it es the remains of one of the grosiest superstitions that Ever visited mankind, and condemned it with as much indignation as if it had attained its present enormous meturiv. In 1346 the superstition existed to ba destroyed he hoped by the example of London operating upon all other places of dense pcpulation.—(C hi ers.) Mr. NORRIS seconded the motion. Mr. T.OTT did not object to the principle, but he wished for some qualification. There were certain feelings to be resrected, particularly the feelings which operated upon tha members of families as to lying in the same graves.—(Hear, hear.) lie believed that a good deal oi the opecedzion to churchyard burials arose from the monopoly of cemeteries. —(Laughter, and cries of " Hear, hear.") He would only ask the Court to look at whet was going on as to the monopoly of railways.—(Hear.) Mr. W. S. HALE said that whenever there was a crowded churchyard ili-health might he expected. Ile witnessed the effect of these burials in the very neigh bourhood in which they were that moment speaking. In Coleman-street churchyard, which was paved, the effluvia from the dead bodies escaped through holes made in the tomb -stones, and made the air pestilential. —(clear, hear.) How such an abomination could be allowed to exist so long was a thing he could not at all comprehend. Dr. Leearcu supported the motion with pleasure, The,/ were indebted to Mr. Anderton for his able and beet& though brief exposition of the evils referred to. Upwards of 3,000 years ago Abraham ordered the dead to be taken out of his sight upwards of 2,000 years ago the Roman Commonwealth did what they were about to do—passed laws against burying in cities. " In urbe ne sepelito " was an ordinance rigidly enforced,—(Hear, hear.) The horrible effects of allowing the dead to be deposited in the midst of the living, had been fully esta blished by the labours and writings of Mr. Walker. Mr. Chadwick, too, in his invaluable work, had accumulated and epitomised a mass of evidence of such a revolting nature, that the wonder was that so frightful a practice could have been so long tolerated.—(Hear, hear.) It was well known that 12-13ths of the dead human body dissipated in the air we breathed, and that disease was daily resulting from exposure to the foul and pestilential exhalation of the grave-yards. The festering putrid matter was allowed unrestricted vent and diffusion every time a grave was opened. It impregnated the atmos phere all around. In some cases 45 had been opened in a day in one churchyard. The bodies were piled carcase upon carcase until they had reached a depth of 10, 20, and 30 feet, the topmost body being only a few inches from the surface.—(Hear, hear.) St. Andrew's Chur c h was 25 feet above the level. The putrescent accumulation raised every churchyard in London upon an average 10 feet high. They were all fourfold over-charged. The number of persons dying annually in London was upwards of 50,000. Some 4,000 or 5,000 were buried in the cemeteries, and the remainder in intermural grounds. The aggregate area of these latter was under 220 acres, and the average annual number of burials per acre was 203, or about twice the number permitted in continental states. That average afforded no indica-. tion of the restriction of the evil. Were the taltrials equally distributed over the space allotted them, the consequence would be comparatively little felt, but the reverse took place. The burial grounds were mostly situated in the poorest and most crowded parts of the town. Where there were most of the living there were most of the dead—where the burial grounds were fruit ful and perpetual sources of disease, there the liability to disease was greatest, while the ability to guard against it or to provide a remedy was the least.—(Hear, hear.) There was to be seen the narrow plot of ground reeking with pestilence, its soil supersaturated with sulphurated hydrogen and carbonic acid gas, its surface strewed with bones and moist with matter and exhalations alike disgusting to the senses and destructive of health,— (Hear, hear.) That plague spot was hemmed in with hovels, in which space was economised to the verge of suffocation, and the narrow streets and cesspools aided the morbid ezucletio4 0 Percolate th.Q 411 1 Mill and PROSPECTIVE OPENINGS. The Newcastle and Berwick, between Newcastle and Morpeth, is announced to be opened in the early part of the ensuing month. The whole line is expected to be finished by February next. The bridges over the Tyne and Tweed, now in course of erection, will occupy two years at least ere they can be opened. The extension of the North Shields line to Tynemouth will be thrown ' open to the public in a few weeks. The Whitehaven and Harrington Railway is in so for ward a state as to promise its opening for public traffic in the early part of October. The South Devon will be opened on the atmospheric system of traction in about three months. The engines at the Exeter and Countess Weir stations are completed, and have been tried. The valves arc being fixed to the tubing, and the connecting pipes for the engines will be forthwith laid down. Mr. bameda was on the line on Tuesday last superintending the works in progress. The Bridlington branch, the property of the Hull and Selby, extending from Hull to Bridlington by way of Beverley and Driffield, a distance of thirty-one miles, is appointed to be publicly opened on Tuesday the 6th of next month. The Margate line, a branch of the South-Eastern from Ramsgate, is on the eve of completion, and will be thrown open to the public in a few days. The Hertford branch of the Eastern Counties was opened yesterday as a double line. General Pasley certified it last Sunday. The Hertford people arc to have the benefit of express trains. The Bedford branch of the London and Birmingham will be completed the first week in October. LANCASTER AND CARLISLE.—On the 27th, the direc tors caused two trial trips to be made between Carlisle and Penryth, being a distance of about eighteen miles, but that portion of the line is not yet open to the `... ieeted s public. General Pasley, on Friday last, 111 the line between Lancaster and Kenkl, who cer tified that it was fit for public '.:,se as a single line. As might naturally be `.';‘,pposed, the etcasion gave rise to considerabt interest and bustle both at Lon caster and KeliCial. About ten o'clock on Monday fore noon IRF.t e tt powerful engine, with a long train of car ri:.ges attached to it, which were filled up by a number of the directors, shareholders, and ladies and gentlemen of Lancaster and the surrounding neighbourhood, started from the Lancaster station. The train went off at an easy speed, which was gradually increased, and arrived at Kendal about twelve o'clock, amid the cheers of a large concourse of people who had assembled at the spot to witness the arrival of the train. Soon afterwards a lunch was spread out at the Whitehall building, to which upwards of 100 sat down. The train again re turned to Lancaster, where it arrived about four o'clock, having been joined by Mr. E. W. Hasell, the chairman of the board of directors, and other directors. The party dined together at Lancaster, Mr. Hasell in the chair. According to the statement of the chairman, made at the last half -yearly meeting, held at Penrith, the whole of the line will be opened to the public in the course of next month. Looking at the vast deal of work which remains to be done on certain parts of the line, it is almost impossible that this will be the ease at 029 time mentioned. Lis:Meyer, the exertions a the en- TilE SUN, LONDON, T_EIURSDA Y EVENING, SEPTEMBER 24, 1846: affairs in that locality into immediate consideration. Parliament, he said, should assemble in three or four weeks, and endeavour to avert the painful evils with which the people were threatened. Mr. JOHN O'CONNELL announced the resignation of Dr. Cann, of Kilkenny. It was with the sincerest sorrow that they accepted his resignation. He hoped that at a future period Dr. Cann would adopt the principle which the Bishops and Archbishops have adopted, he meant the glorious moral force principle. Captain BRODRICK seconded the motion, which passed. Mr. J. O'CONNELL said that there were others who wished their names to be removed from the books; he would move that Mr. Ray be desired to comply with have proved about equal to the demand; and the value of the article has remained almost stationary. The market has been poorly supplied with English and Scotch oats. A few thousand quarters have arrived from Ireland, but, inclusive of 7,110 quarters from abroad, the total supply up to this (Saturday) evening has amounted to only 10,963 quarters. As is usually the case when the market is bare, the principal dealers have contented themselves with buying just sufficient to satisfy their pressing wants. This they have succeeded in doing without much difficulty at Monday's quota tations; but unless supplies speedily come to hand, the absolute scarcity of good oats will, we think, cause their value to rise. The consumptive demand for beans has, as yet, hardly commenced ; and as prices are regarded as some what high for speculation, the business done in the are tide has not been extensive. Floating cargoes of Egyptian beans might have been placed at 335. ; sellers having, however, been unwilling to accept that price, few parcels have changed hands. No English peas have come forward since Monday, and prices must, therefore, be quoted nominally, as before. Indian corn has been held very high, which has in terfered with its disposal ; for yellow, 40s. to 435., and for fine white, 435. to 455. per quarter , has be en asked. On Thursday the duty fell to 3s. per quarter on barley, rye, beans, and peas. FOREIGN. In proportion as the prospects of Great Britain re quiring supplies of foreign grain increases, so do prices advance on the Continent ; and it is now certain that to obtain the quantity we are likely to want, it will be ne cessary to pay very high rates. Letters from Dantzic of the 12th instant, informs us that the finer qualities of wheat had become scarce there, the old stocks having been greatly reduced, and only trifling supplies having come to hand from the interior. Under these circumstances, holders had declined selling at former rates, and 48s. 6d. per quar ter, free on board, had been paid for high mixe d wheat, the growth of 1842, weighing 631bs. per bushel ; whilst secondary qualities had sold at equal to 465. 6d. to 475. 6d., and inferior sorts at 435. 6d. to 445. 6d. per quarter, free on board. The purchase had been principally on French and Belgian account, very little having been taken for shipment to England. Freight to the east coast of Great Britain was then 3s. 6d. to 4s. per qr. for wheat. Of spring corn none had come to market ; peas had been inquired for at 355. to 365. per qr., but there had been no sellers at those rates. At Hamburgh, on Tuesday, wheat was held at very high rates, good 621bs. red upland being then held at 535., and fine Wahren, of 62ilbs. weight, at 555. free on board. The extravagant terms asked had prevented much business being done, the English and French orders having been limited too low to admit of their execution. Seale barley, on the spot, had been held at 355. per qr., but the sale had been very slow at that rate. Small beans, to be shipped from the Jande, had been held at 405.t0 415., and fine new upland peas at 465. to 475. per qr., free on board. In the Dutch markets prices of wheat had, according to the most recent accounts, again begun to tend up wards • and at Rotterdam, on Tuesday, the article wa s in lively request at an advance of Is. per quarter, whilst rye was quoted 25., and oats is per quarter higher than on that day se'nnight. In most of the southern and south-eastern countries of Europe the upward movement in prices of grain has been more decided than in the northern markets, and there is very little prospect of Great Britain receiving supplies of wheat from the eastward of Gibraltar. We may, however, calculate on rather large arrivals of In dian corn from the Mediterranean, some pretty extensive purchases of the article having recently been made there on English account. Letters from Marseilles, of the 12th September, inform us that Indian corn had been in brisk demand for ship ment, and that equal to 28s. 9d. per quarter, free on board, had been paid. At Geuoa similar prices had, it appears, been paid; and at Triest, on the 9th instant, its value had risen to 255. 7d. per quarter. A couple of vessels had been chartered at the latter port, to load for Liverpool, at 7s. per quarter, 10 per cent. and 10 guineas gratuity. - Mark Lane Express. their wish.—Passed. Mr. R. D. BROWNE, M P. (who entered the meeting a short time previous), then came forward, and was warmly received. He said that he would not detain them long, but he could not let such an opportunity pass without fully expressing his full approval of the " O'Con nell moral force" policy, and his strong disapproval of the course pursued by the " physical force" gentlemen. —(Hear, hear.) He (Mr. Browne) was always a re pealer, and the more he saw of England and Ireland's relative positions, the stronger he was in his belief in the absolute necessity there was for a native Parliament. — (Cheers.) The Learned Gentleman next alluded to the Labour Bill, which he said he hoped would succeed in establishing the golden rule of agriculture or commercial labour—" A fair day's pay is worth a fair day's work," and " a fair day's work ought to have a fair day's pay." It was a good measure, and one of the first good measures ever passed for Ireland. —(Hear, hear.) Now he had heard of repealers being abused for supporting the Go vernment which passed it ; he would ask—why should they not support a Government which seemed disposed to do justice—and which was composed of such men as Mr. Ward, Mr. Gibson, Mr. M'Culloch, and Sir Wil liam Somerville ?—(Hear, and loud cheers)—men who were known to be the ardent friends of liberty, and whom he believed would yet be found amongst their ranks as repealers. His principle would be to take their support, and all the good measures they could get from the Whigs, and use them as stepping-stones to repeal— for nothing but repeal would satisfy them.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. LAIIGHNAN, T.C., next addressed the meeting, iu handing in some money, and expressed a hope that ere long he would see a reconciliation between the " Old and Young Ireland parties." Mr. O'CoNNELL said that they would be most happy to effect a recouciliation, but, as he had often stated before, it lay with the Young Ireland party to make the move, as they had swerved from the rules of the Asso ciation, and could only be again connected with it, by a determination to agitate by moral means alone. — (Cheers.) They had erred, and they were the parties to repent of their error.—(Cheers.) The Honourable and Learned Gentleman then alluded to the Labour Rate Bill, and the Treasury minute regulating it. He said that that order directed that the wages should, in each locality, be twopence lower than the wages given by the landlords in the neighbourhood, and if such wore the case, the people would be starved, as the wages in the county of Meath, one of the best counties in the country, were only ninepence farthing a day, in summer, and sevenpence-halfpenny a day in winter, which would leave only fivepence-halfpenny a day to support a labourer dur.ng the approaching winter. That was the calcula tion as regarded the best counties; but in other parts of the country, in the west and south, there would not be threepence a-day coming to the labourer uuder the Treasury regulation—(Loud cries of "Hear, hear") — therefore the Government should at once consider the matter, and make provision to give fair remuneration for a fair day's work.—(Cheers.) Mr. J. M. M'DONNELL, M.P., then handed in some money, and made some observations with regard to a Mr. Lynch—(Hear, hear) —whom ho denominated "the rotten Papist of Mayo," stating that he was not even fit to drive one of Croal's coaches. He said that he would not advise any one to do anything improper or illegal ; but he knew he would not starve, if food was to be got at.—(Cheers.) In conclusion, Mr. M'Oonnell proposed the enrolment of Mr. Peard, of the sth Dragoon Guards, as a member of the Association: which resolution was seconded and passed. After some short pause, Mr. J. O'CONNELL rose and said he did not know, but that it might be dangerous for gentlemen in the army joining, the Association.—(Cries of " Hear.") He would, therefore, beg to move the suspension of his ad mission for the preient, until they should have an op portunity of consulting some more legal persons, more competent to give an opinion than he was. Motion withdrawn. Mr. BOURKE postponed the reading of the report from the Repeal Discussion Committee, until Monday next, in consequence of the hour to which the proceedings had been protracted. After which the rent was announced to be 611. 16s. 4d. Mr. Bourke was called to the chair, and the meeting adjourned. THE CORN TRADE. BRITISH. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Joseph Pierce was brought before the Lord Mayor charged with having broken into the warehouse of Mr. Colville, of No. 5, Little Friday-street, shawl warehouse- man. John Lawson Ure, warehouseman in the service of Mr. Colville, stated that after having closed and locked up the premises for the night, after six o'clock on Tues day, he tried the door at half-past six, and found that somebody from the inside resisted. , Upon pushing the, door again he found the resistance gave way, ard he saw the prisoner inside. The prisoner had a parcel in his hand, which he said was for Mr. Nicholson. Wit ness not knowing any person of the name referred to took the parcel, but took hold of the prisoner, who at tempted to escape, and gave him into the custody of a policeman. The LORD MAYOR.—How long before you saw the prisoner had you locked the door ? Witness.—l locked it in the inside about three minutes before I saw him. Nothing was removed from the warehouse. Mr. Colville stated that he had never seen the pri soner before to his knowledge. He saw the last witness lock the door as had been stated. The policeman into whose custody the prisoner had been given, said that the prisoner stated, upon being ap prehended, that he found the warehouse open, and went in to shut it. He had a brown paper parcel under his arm, which he said contained a bag. Witness then took from the prisoner's hand a skeleton key, and immediately afterwards conveyed him to the station-house, and was proceeding to search him, when he said it was quite un necessary. The prisoner then produced three 1-rge bags, a screw-driver, a dark lantern, and lucifer matches, a knife, and a second skeleton key of larger dimensions than that found upon his person when in the warehouse, and which would have opened the outside door if it had been necessary. He ha.clalso in his posiessionaplect`of linen, so that he had no doubt made every preparation for taking out a good quantity of property. The smaller skeleton key unlocked the door within , behind which the prisoner had been found by the warehouseman. The LORD MAYOR—Prisoner, how do you account for this ? The prisoner (carelessly) —I thought the ware house was empty, and seeing the door open, I went in and shut it. That's all. The LORD MAYOR—And what did you want with the dark lantern and the lucifer matches ? The prisoner— The comparatively high value which wheat has lately attained has (as we expected would be the case) induced farmers to thrash pretty freely, and large supplies have been brought forward at many of the leading markets in the agricultural districts. Until within the last few weeks the quantity returned as sold weekly at the towns ,which furnish the materials for making up the general average for the kingdom rarely exceed 100,000 qrs., whereas the two last returns are, respectively, 150,000 qra. and 152,000 qrs. Large, however, as the deliveries from the growers have been of late, the demand has about kept pace with the supply; and very little altera don has, consequently, taken place in prices. Public opinion appears to incline as strongly as ever to the be lief that prices of wheat will be considerably - higher than they have yet been; and though the upward move ment has been checked by the increased quantity brought forward, we doubt much whether any material fall from present rates will take place. The extensive failure in the potato crop is a sufficient reason for coming to that conclusion, even were there no other; but it is now ascer tained beyond doubt that wheat is the only kind of grain which has produced anything like an average return, all spring-sown corn and pulse having suffered so severely from the hot dry weather throughout the greater part of the summer as greatly to detract from the yield. Under these circumstances a very large importation of foreign grain is sure to be required; and as many of our continental neighbours are no better off than ourselves, we shall have to pay dearly to induce them to supply our necessities. For the present, however, a calm has succeeded to the recent excitement; and at some few of the leading markets a slight reaction has occurred in prices. From the western and north-western markets, the ac counts are also much less animated than they have been; former prices were, however, tolerably well maintained at Bristol on Thursday, and, excepting an abatement of about ls. per qr. on wheat, very little change occurred at Birmingham. At most of the shipping ports on the east coast the de mand for wheat has been good; and though the supplies brought forward have been liberal, good qualities of red, weighing 62Ibs. to 63Ibs. per bushel, have not been sold below 545. to 555. per qr. free on board. On the whole, less impression seems to have been made in prices at the different provincial markets, by the subdued tone of the London advices, than might have been expected; and there certainly does not appear much prospect of even a temporary decline. Our advices from Scotland inform us that the harvest was fast drawing to a close even in the most backward districts, and that the extraordinary fine weather had enabled farmers to secure the grain in capital con dition; still the crops of spring corn would, it was esti mated, prove very short, and even wheat barely an ave rage. In regard to potatoes the reports from thence are as bad as at any previous period, And though the in ' clination to buy wheat had been somewhat checked by the rather dull accounts from the south, the article was not quoted lower on Wednesday, either at Edinburgh or Glasgow; while oats were held at enhanced rates at both places. The Irish letters are for the most part taken up with speculations on the probable effects of the failure of the potato crop. The disease seems to be even More general there than on this side of the Channel; and bats, a crtip of very great irdportance in that country, are also repre sented to have yielded Considerably short of an average. Rather increased supplies had, however, prevented any fhrther rise occurring in quotations of wheat. The arrivals of wheat coastwise itito tozidon have been only tilt:Aerate; and the show at Mark-lane by land carriage samples front the home counties has been small. The averages are bagimaing to show the effects of the tedelit great rise in the value of wheat; the last general return for the kingdom was 505., and that for London 545, per quartet% Either on Thnrsdity fleet, or the following week, the duty will recede a step; and, from present appearances, we are inclined to think that it will colitintie to tall Until it reaches dab loWeat point in the scale. This is, however; now comparatively of little importance,, as thete are no stocks of consequence in bend; lid is there 'Ruch prospect of foreign irtiporta tions of magnitude ) the French and Belgian markets still offering better prices than Great Britain, and the bulk of the purchases recently made at Baltic ports have therefore been for shipment to those countries, to the ex clusion of English buyers. Of foreign free wheat there are still good stocks at this port; and somewhat more anxiety having lately been shown by holders to realise the extreme rates of last week have not been supported Both on Wednesday and Friday the transactions were of a retail character, and it was necessary to give way a trifle to induce purchasers to conic forward. Bonded parcels have been held so high as, in a great measure, to check business. Orders continue to be received from France, limited rather liberally; but the high preten sions of sellers have prevented their execution. Of the 7,504 quarters of wheat which have arrived from abroad during the week, very little has been offered for sale from on board ship, importers preferring to land in bond, in expectation of higher prices hereafter. The town bakers have not bonght flour quite so freely during this as the preceding week; still there has been a fair sale for the article at the lately enhanced prices. The demand for American flour has also, in some mea sure slackened, and, in partial instances, an abatement of 6d. per barrel from the extreme rates of last week has been submitted to, to make sales. Good brands of United States flour in bond have been inquired for at 275. per barrel for export; but holders having declined accepting below 285., few bargains of consequence have been closed. The arrivals of English barley have not been large ; the malsters having, however, determined not to follow up their purchases at such high prices as those lately paid, the trade in this grain has become dull, and the trifling business done in new barley has been at slightly reduced terms. Grinding qualities, whether of home or foreign growth, have beon held very firmly, and have commanded fully as much money as on any previous occasion. Though malt has come to hand . sparingly, the receipts Only to light my pipe. The prisoner was then committed for trial to Newgate MARYLEBONE. INSOLENCE OF ; - &R0731. 1 -COrd - Thomas Pelham Clinton, residing at No. 16, Charlton Villas, St. John's wood, attended at this Court to prefer a charge against one of his grooms, named George Workman, for having (as entered on the police-sheet) refused to obey his mas ter's ord.rs, and used language of such a nature as to be calculated to provoke a breach of the peace. Lord Clinton said, at a quarter to five yesterday I or dered the prisoner, my groom, to be at the door with the Brougham, and soon afterwards I and Lady Clinton entered the vehicle. Her Ladyship found that the mat was covered with gravel and dirt, and she gave it to the page to take into the house, when the prisoner got off his box and, opening the door of the carriage, said, "Aml to whip this horse or not ?" I told him that he. Was not to whip it, as I had objected to his doing so upon previous occasions. He then exclaimed, " Oh, very well ; then I don't drive you one inch to-night ; and as to you (addressing Lady Clinton) before you married my Lord, you never knew what it was to have a Brougham to ride in." Mr. RawLiNsoN—Did he make use of any worse lan guage than that which you have mentioned ? Lord Clinton—He eontitmed his abuse, sir, and I desired him to quit My tervioe instantly. I went to look for a police man, and on my entering with oue, be (prisoner) was saying to Lady Clinton, " You're no lady, and teach you bow tO talk to me." His wife came up and begged of Lady Clinton to forgive him, when he said to her (the wife) " Don't talk to her—she's too disreputable for any one belonging to MO to speak to." Atkins, 91 D, said—There was a disturbance and a crowd of persons in front of his Lordship's residence, and I heard prisoner say, " That woman (meaning Lady Clinton) never knew anything about a Brougham till she cants to your (Lord Clinton's) house." My Lord then lifted his cane and struck the prisoner on the shoulder. Mr. EAwLINSoN (to the prisoner)—What is your answer to this charge ? Prisoner—l merely told my Lord that if I Was to drive him I must whip the horse when necessary, Whets my Lady directly made a great noise. His Lordship then got out Of the Srougham, and with his whip struck me several times; I have witnesses here to prove that he did so if you will allow me to call them. Mr. RAWLINSON—You are discharged. Lord Clinton quitted the court by the magistrate's private entrance, evidently much chagrined at his groom not being punished. SOUTHWARK. RODEIEIIY AT A RAILWAY TERMINUS.—Sarah a young woman of respectable appearance, was charged with having stolen a purse containing 13s. 2d., the pro perty of Mrs. Ann Oliver, of Norfolk-street, Park- lane, at the terminus of the Greenwich Railway. The complainant stated, that at half-past ten o'clock that morning she went to the London -bridge terminus, and in paying her fare to Greenwich, had occasion to take out her purse, which she returned again to her pocket as she supposed. She then proceeded towards the platform, and before she got up to the train she missed closehheerr i p f a ss rths heree , had and foundo h e e l s . n losoahk purse, n u g ar sd r ed o , r u nbe but d st e, shedo b thesae t r v op e nr d ci se ot answered p ee prisoner, , prisoner the negative, adding that she knew nothing about it, and she walked along, and took her seat in one of the car riages. The complainant suspecting the prisoner, went up to Inspector Woodcock, and mentioned her suspicions to him, and they proceeded together to the carriage in which the prisoner had taken her seat. Inspector Woodcock stated, that when he questioned the prisoner, she exhibited considerable alarm, and after some time said she would give it up to the owner if she promised not to proceed against her. No promise, how ever, was held out to her, and she was then taken from the carriage to the inspector's room, and there she pro duced the purse and its contents, which she pulled odt of one of her stockings which was fastened round her leg with her elastic garter. She was then given into custody. The prisoner, who trembled and was dreadfully agi tated, begged for mercy, saying she was of a respectable family, and that she never intended to have committed a robbery. She said as she passed through the wicket at the terminus, immediately behind the lady who preferred the charge against her, she (the prisoner) felt something adhering to the floss silk border of her shawl, and finding it was a purse she confessed that, instead of making the fact known as she ought to have done, she deposited it in her stocking. - • • • The complainant, in reply to Mr. SECKER, said that it 1 STATE OF TRADE. was her impression she must have dropped the purse in ' MANCHESTER, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2.—The mar returning it to her pocket, and that it was not taken out ket to-day has shown increased firmness in price, thought by the band of the prisoner.

INCITING TO COMMIT A FELONY.—John Elam, aged 35, a twine spinner, residing at No. 5, Butler-street, Green-street, Bethnal-green, was brought before Mr. Ballantine, charged with having incited Robert Ralph, a labourer, in the employ of the East and West India Dock Company, to commit a felony. The charge was preferred by Mr. Dixon, superinten dent of the Dock Company's police, and it appeared the prisoner had purchased through a broker at a public sale fourteen bales of damaged stuff called " jute," a species of New Zealand flax or hemp, and he came yes terday morning armed with the necessary warrants and documents to remove them. The bales were deposited in the centre attic of No. 2 warehouse, where Ralph, a young man, was employed, and he was directed by his foreman to " break out" the bales which were numbered according to the warrant 181 to 194, and to deliver them to the prisoner. One of the bales, numbered 189, was very much damaged and rotten, and the prisoner ob serving this, offered Ralph a half-crown if he would substitute another bale of hemp, in good condition, in the same warehouse for it. Ralph was proof against the bribe, and communicated with Mr. Bury, his foreman, immediately, and he caused the prisoner to be given into custody. Mr. BALLANTINE—I shall send the case for trial, but as the offence is a bailable one, I will take bail. COMMISSION OF LUNACY ON MRS. CUMMING. EIGHTH DAY. Yesterday morning, at ten o'clock, pursuant to ad journment, the special jury in the above case re-assem bled at the Horns Tavern, Kennington, for the purpose of hearing the result of the conference between the Lord Chancellor and the Learned Commissioner, F. Barlow, Esq., and also the terms of the arrangement between the parties. Mrs. Cumming, as has been her custom throughout, was almost the first to enter the room. She appeared gay and smiling, and was evidently in high spirits. She was accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Hutchins, and other WORKS by ROBERT J. CULYERWELL, M.D. M.R.C.S. &c.

Mr. James, addressing the jury, then said, that in ac cordance with the promise he made yesterday, he would acquaint them with the terms of the arrangement which had been come to between the parties. That arrange ment was to free the lady from all future restraint, as well as to give clue protection to the property. As to the propriety of such course he (Mr. James) had taken the responsibility upon himself. He knew the jury had paid the greatest attention to this case, and he was glad to see that they had watched it with such judicious care; yet he felt that it was his duty to communicate the result of the negotiation. The heads of the arrangement were, that Mrs. Cumming be immediately discharged from custody, and become a perfectly free agent tlhat a deed be executed vesting the property in responsible and respectable trustees ; Mrs. Cumming to have the sole use during her life ; after her death one third to revert to her daughter Mrs. Ince, or her chil dren, frt e from the control of her husband (Mr. Ince). Another third to devolve upon Mrs. Hooper, or to her children, also free from her husband's control ; the re. maining third to be at the disposal of the lady herself. The jury would be discharged from giving a verdict, and then his Learned Friend Mr. Petersdorff and himself would have to adopt the usual course for the superse donee of the Commission. It was proposed that one of the trustees be Mr. Hutchins, Mr. Ince and Mr. Hooper to appoint another, and the Learned Commissioner (if he should approve) to appoint a third. These were the arrangements. He did not ask for the sanction or ap proval of the jury. but he felt desirous that a matter in which they had been so long engaged should not be arranged in secrecy or mystery. He was happy to add that he believed the course proposed would tend to heal the differences which had prevailed between the family. Mr. Petersdorff said that Mrs. Cumming had been consulted, and had agreed to the arrangement, by which he was happy to say a large expense would be saved, and the differences between the family speedily terminated. In answer to the Learned Commissioner the counsel on both sides intimated that they retired judicially. The Learned:CosimissioNun observed that he had now no hesitation as to the course to be pursued. They were bound to make up their minds, yea or nay, upon the evidence laid before them; but the case was now entirely withdrawn ; and the moving power being thus removed, they could nut proceed in the case, and it was not ripe for their judgment. But the case had been concluded, and they could return no verdict, as both parties had re tired. If only one had retired they might have pro ceeded, but now, even if they were locked up, they could come to no conclusion. The lady having herself agreed, us well us all other parties, he saw no better mode than that of discharging them without a verdict, with thanks for the patient attention they had given to the long inquiry. The Court then broke up, and Mrs. Cumming, after a short consultation with her professional advisers, retired in the greatest spirits with her friends. This finally concluded one of the most singular and extraordinary inquiries, which, in its result, viz., that of compromise, is believed to be unprecedented, as respects all previous Commissions of Lunacy.

DUBLIN, SEPT. 21.—Theusual weekly meeting of the Repeal Association was held this day, at the Conciliation Hall; William M'Guinness, Esq., in the chair. The SECRETARY read the minutes of last day's pro ceedings, after which Mr. JOHN O'CONNELL read the following letter from his father:— " Darrynane Abbey, Cabirciveen, Sept. 17. "My dear Ray,—lt is impossible to exaggerate the frightful prospect of famine and pestilence that lies before us. The failure of the poor man's crop is known to be all but universal—indeed, the fact is so familiar that it is quite superfluous to repeat it. " The plan for affording relief through the medium of public works will be in full operation in the course of the ensuing fortnight. To be satisfactory, however, it requires the most active co-operation of the landowners and farmers. " Unhappily, in the present state of the country, it will not be sufficient to procure employment for the people. The great difficulty is, the procuring sufficient food. The great deficiency . is in the supply of food — food is already at famine price, and the leaving in the hands of the mercantile men the supplying food as a commercial speculation will necessarily keep it at afamine price. The intervention of Government is, therefore, absolutely necessary—such intervention is surrounded with great difficulties, and will impose an enormous ad ditional burden upon the Government. It must, how ever, be done, or the people will starve ; it not being, I repeat, safe to leave the people at the mercy of specu lators in bread stuffs ' " It is true that promises are held out to keep the market down, by pouring in a supply of Government provisions. Thus the difficulty meets us again ; for the Government, in heaping down the markets, will be very likely to drive the mercantile classes out of the trade, so that the supplying of the food will ultimately full altogether upon the Government. " Many plans have been suggested to meet the diffi culties, especially plans to borrow from the Government, at a low rate of interest, moneys to be laid out on pro ductive improvements on lands, to be repaid by the borrower. " Let it be remarked that there are already a million of pounds sterling in the hands of the Board of Works, to be lent for the drainage of Irish estates, and yet very few indeed have availed themselves of that fund. " One feature in the present emergency affords the greatest satisfaction. It is that which exhibits persons of every class, and of every persuasion, and of every political opinion, combining together, without the slightest reference to any irritating or party topics, but one and all endeavouring to find out the best mode of initigatin; the approaching famine. This has never happened before. It is the first time in Ireland that unanimity, complete and entire, has shown itself among men of various persuasions and different political opinions, and that unanimity has been un violated amidst the fervour of public meetings. " The consequence has been, that various plans have been suggested for alleviating the present misery, and anticipating the evils to result should another year of famine follow the present. " When we were dealing with the afflicting, but still ' partial distress of last year, we fondly anticipated relief from the promising harvest of the present year ; but it has pleased Providence to disappoint our hopes, and ag gravate the evils of our prospects. Who shall tell us with confidence that we shall not have another year of similar calamities? Judging from what has happened in other countries, we have great cause to dread the blight will not terminate in the present year, but that we shall have another famine year to provide for. Under such circumstances, every man who produces a pl in to obviate the dangers and difficulties of our position and prospects, is, to a certain extent, a public benefactor. "There is another consideration deserving attention, that the Government plan of succour is calculated to produce throughout Ireland, a more extended poor-law, necessarily calculated to extend out-door relief to all adult labourers and their families in a state of destitu tion, as well as to all other destitute poor. The English statute of Elizabeth is being extended to Ireland, and the poverty of the country is about to be placed for sup port upon the property—especially upon the landed property. " In seeking to relieve the present distress, it will re quire the utmost care and vigilance to prevent Ireland being involved in the entire detail of the English poor laws. " But the greatest evil of all is the want of combina tion and co- operation between the Irish gentry gene rally. The late meetings afford a proof of the practica bility of such a combination, but then those meetings lasted for only part of a day. " After conferring amicably, and resolving eloquently, they dissolved into their original elements, and left no combined body to carry out their intentions. " - Now, what I most ardently desire is this, that the gentlemen who resolve so well, and who talk so wisely, should make up their minds to give permanency to their efforts by the continuance of some committee or depu tation. " How delighted I should be to be able, with any prospect of success, to propose that the gentry in each locality in Ireland should appoint a delegation of their number to meet together in Dublin without delay, in order to organise the best plans for obtaining Govern ment and local relief during the impending calamities of famine and pestilence, and to embody, in practical form, their suggestions to Parliament for laws suited to the emergency. " The first duty of such a meeting as I allude to would be to address the Ministry, and, if necessary, the Crown itself, to call together, without delay, the Parlia ment ; such a demand, coining from such a body, would be irresistible. " When the Parliament met s the it:litmus of such a body as I describe would, necessarily, be all-powerful ; and every hope would arise that an effectual plate for re lief of the people of this msenlicent Ireland would be realised. I may be sneered at by some, and laughed at by others, for making such a proposal I it will be said that what I want is an Irish Parliament, and I confess that there would be some remote resemblance to ate Irish Parliament in such an assembly but there would be none which a British statesman need apprehend, or the most timid anti-Repealer object to. " There are other topics whith I would wish to sub mit to the Association, but for the present I postpone them. Let me t however, conjure the gentry of Ireland seriously to reflect that unless they adopt some plan to make their weight and importance felt by the Govern ment, the thglish plan of out-door relief in its worst form, will be almost insensibly communicated to Ire land, and their estates not only burdened, but actually confiscated. " In the meantime, let the Repeal Association con tinue its exertions—let it accumulate documents for the discussion of the repeal question in the next session of Parliament. No rational man can object to such a dis cussion in the British Parliament ; neither can there be the slightest shadow of a doubt that the union has worked badly for Ireland. Before the present distress it was proved on the ever memorable Devon commis sion, that the agricultural population of Ireland, being seven-eighths of the entire, endured more misery . than any other people in Europe. Perhaps, now that it is as certained beyond any controversy, that the plan for working out the restoration of the Irish Parliament is purely and undeviatingly peaceable—there may be such an accession to our strength as would render the repeal inevitable. "Believe me to be very faithfully yours, " To M. Ray, Esq." " DANIEL O'CONNEL. Mr. JOHN O'CONNELL, in moving that the letter be inserted in the minutes, said that he had just been in formed that a meeting of ratepayers, which was held at Cashel, had separated without doing any thing for the people. The meeting was presided over by Lord Glen gall, and they had done nothing for the starving people. The Reverend Mr. Kirnan, who had informed him (Mr. O'Connell) of the circumstance, hastened up to Dublin to lay the matter before the Lord-Lieutenant, with a View of indlicilig the Governmeut to take the ante el BIRTHS.
