PROCLAMATION of SANTA ANNA. 1 Address of GENERAL ANTONIO LOPEZ D E BANTA ANNA to his countrymen upon the subject of the plan proclaimed for the real regeneration of the Republic. (Issued at Vera Cruz, Aug. 16, 1846.) Mexicans,—Called by the people and the garrisons of the departments of Jalisco, Vera Cruz, and Sinatoa, South Mexico, and other paints of the Republic, I quitted Havannah on the Bth instant, at nine in the Evening, with the sole object of coming to aid you in savibg our country from its enemies, internal and ex ternal. Great has been my joy when, on arriving at this point, I learnt that the former had been overthrown by your forces ; and that I was already proclaimed, on all sides, as General-in-Chief of the liberating army. A proof olio much confidence will be met by me with the ut most loyalty ; but on accepting the plan proclaimed, al low ,me to enter into some explanations, which I con sider necessary, in order to dispel any suspicions founded on a past, the recollections of which are so painful to me. _ _ _ Desiring to consolidate peace in the interior of the re public, in order to make it flourish and prosper, and to insure by that means the integrity of our immense terri tory, I have devoted all my efforts in consequence of the events of 1804, to establish an Administration endowed with vigour and energy, and capable of keepicg down the spirit of turbulence and disorder. Without ever going beyond Republican forms, i 'endeavoured for this purpose to support myself on property, on high posi tions, on creeds, and even on the few historical memorials existing in the country, hoping thus to moderate by the inertia of Conservative instincts, the vehemence of po pular masses. But without ascendancy and prestige as I was, and the elements assembled by me being viewed with distrust, resistance was made on all sides, which I, however, expected to overcome in time. I call God to witness that in this I acted with patriotism, with since rity. and with good faith. After some years of trial I began to remark that the republic did not advance, that some departments showed tendencies of separation from the others ; and that the public) discontent was daily increasing. Wavering then in my convictions, they afterwards lost all their power, when a part of the country had been occupied by strangers, and our national existence of the whole was endangered, I called on the people to the rescue, and they answered me with threats ; as if any other misfor tune could have been preferable to that in which the country then was placed. Urged by the firm determi nation that we should be a sovereign and independent people, and knowing, on the other hand, the vast re sources on which we could rely for support, I then be came convinced that our Government, being organised in a manner by no means conformable with the wishes of the ation, and governed by a secondary Legislature not added for the advancement of its interests, the people revenged themselves in that way by seeking for an oc casion in which they should be called on to take care of their own good, and to organise their Government in the manner which they should consider most proper. In our time we have seen another nation, in a similar conflict, employ similar means to oblige its Government to promise the representative system, which it was anxious to have established, and when that had been ob tained, we have seen its moral apathy changed into heroic enthusiasm, against the foreign invader who en deavoured to subjugate it. Is there anything, therefore, strange in the idea that our people should, in this in stance, do as much to recover the full enjoyment of their sovereignty, acknowledged by all governments, though trodden under foot by all, in the practical administration of affairs ? On this point I owe to my country, in consi deration of the part which I have taken, to declare frankly and honestly, upon this critical and solemn occa sion, that it can be saved only by a return to first princi ples, with entire submission of the minority to the sove reign will of the majority of the nation. Upon proof so clear and peremptory, of the serious difficulty attending - that which I had considered best cal culated to secure to the republic respectability abroad, I found it right to recede, and to yield to public opinion, and follow it with the same ardour and constancy with whieh I had opposed it before comprehending it. To discover the most effective means of raising the spirit of the public, and predisposing it to the war, with which we are threatened on the north, was my employment ; and I was beginning to develop the measures for that pur pose, when the events of the 6th of December, 1844, oc curred, and plunged the republic into the miserable situ ation in which you how see it. Expatriated from that time for ever from the national territory, with a prohibition to return to it under the hard penalty of death, the obstacle which I was sup posed to present to the establishment of an administra tive system, conformable with public exigencies, being removed, I believed that the men who had succeeded in placing themselves in my . stead, by calling public opinion to their aid in effecting it, would respect that opinion, and summon the nation to organise its government ac cording to its own wishes. Pained, as I was, not to be allowed to take part in the real regeneration of the country, I still most sincerely desired it, because I be lieved that, whilst our political horizon was daily becoma ing darker, no other means were left to save us. My prayers for this were redoubled on seeing that, in consequence of the development of the invasive policy of the United States, stimulated by the perfidy of the Cabinet of General Herrera on the serious question of our northern frontiers, the European press began to in dicate the necessity of a foreign intervention in our domestic concerns, in order to preserve us from the am bitious projects of the neighbouring republic. That, however, which raised my uneasiness to the greatest height, was to see in a newspaper of credit and influ ence, peblished in the Old World, a proposition made in dcfbber last, to bring us back by force under the yoke of our ancient masters. My conviction was, never - theless, still strong, that no Mexican, however weak might be his feeling of attachment for his country, would dare to favour such ideas openly, and still less to recom mend them to the consideration of the people. Meanwhile, news reached me of a resolution projected by General Paredes, which revived my hopes ; fur though he had been the determined enemy of every re presentative popular government, I supposed that he had altered his opin*ns, and I honoured himso far as to believe him incapable of advancing schemes for European inter vention, in the interior administration of the republic. He succeeded, and his manifesto declaring his adhesion to the plan proposed by the troops quartered at San Luis Potosi, increased my uneasiness, because I clearly saw in it a diatribe against the independence of the nation, rather than the patriotic address of a Mexican General, seeking, in good faith, to remedy the evils of his country. His perverse designs were in fine fully revealed, as well as by his summons (for the assemblage of a Congress) of the 24th of last January, issued in consequence of this revolution, as by the newspapers showing the ten dency of his administration to the establishment of a monarchy under a foreign prince, in the republic. As one of the principal chiefs of the independence of our country, and founder of the republican system, I was then indignant at this endeavour of some of its sons to deliver the nation up to the scoffs of the world, and to carry it back to the ominous days of the conquest. I thereupon took the firm determination to come and aid you to save our country from such a stain, and to avoid tfie hofrible consequences of a measure by which its glorious destiny was to be reversed, carrying it back to what it was, and to what it never should be again. To execute this determination was to offer up my blood to any one, in case of failure, who might choose to shed it, in compliance with the terms of the barbarous decree which drove me from the republic ; but I preferred to perish in this noble attempt, rather than appear indiffe rent to the ignominy of my country, and see the countless sacrifices made for our independence, and the right to govern ourselves rendered illusory. Mexicans, the real objects of those who, while invoking order and tranquillity, have constantly endeavoured to prevent the nation from organising its Government as it chose, have now been laid open; and the time is come when all true republicans of all parties, the body of the pcbplc as *elit as the army, should unite their efforts sincerely, in order to secure entirely the independence of our country, and to place it at liberty to adopt the form of Government most suitable to its wishes, each sacrificing his own individual convictions to the will of the majority. How, indeed, can the minority, however wise and opulent, and powerful they may be, pretend to assume to themselves the right to regulate the affairs of the community, or to govern the majority, without an express delegation from the latter, given of their own accord, not presumed, nor still less extorted by force? This may be among people who are ignorant of their own rights, and where the want of the means of inde pendent subsistence subjects the many to" the few, who have monopolised everything; but it is not to be effected among us, in whom the democratic spirit in the midst of many favourable circumstances, has been developing itself for thirty-six years, and now renders imperious and decisive, the necessity of concentrating by practice the political axiom of the sovereignty of the nation. This most essential circumstance has been disregarded and, despised in all constitutions hitherto given to the country; and in the only one which has appeared most popular, the antagonism of the principles adopted has rendered it ineffective ; so that democracy, which alone can serve as a solid basis for our social edifice, has been unable to develop itself, and thus to afford the peace which is its instinctive law, and the other benefits in effable; which it produces. Hence the convulsions which have so long agitated us, and of which some European writers have taken advantage, so far as to depreciate our race ; opposing the liberty and independence of the republic; manifesting the necessity of inter ference, in order to strengthen it against the febrile in vasion of the United States ; and declaring, in fine, that it would be as easy to conquer Mexico with a por tion of the troops now quartered in the island of Cuba, as it wis in the time of the native Mexican princes. My blodll boils on seeing the contempt with which we are thus treated, by men who either do not know us well, or who, interested in transplanting among us the fruits of their old social system, and of the times in which tfiey originated, consider America in the same state in which it was during the sixteenth century. Should any attempt be made, as indicated, to carry these mild plans i t nto effect, all interests of race would be silenced, and but one voice would be heard through out the Continent. The one hemisphere would then be seen arrayed against the other, and for the disasters which would fall on the rash agressar who should thus attempt to interfere with the internal administration of other nations, he alone would be responsible. To pronounce thus against the many nations which form the great Ilispano American family, to declare them incapable of enjoying republican institutions, is, i n fact, to be ignorant of, or not to conceal, what is p_roved by the testimony of Chili, New Granada, and Venezuela, in contradiction of such assertions. It is to attribute, no doubt with evil intentions, to men of a certain race, defects of administrative forms which, not being entirely democratic, have produced the bitter fruits of monarchical forms engrafted on them, without adverting to the fatal influence of the latter on the lot of the others. the nation by To expect, more over, to strengthen u e p u p t o u s n e d th in e a e i : : mon archy, under a foreig n p rince, istencein it of elements for the establliti THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, OCTOBER, tenalue of that au stein ; or that, wearied by its.struggle to conquer its lib erty', the nation sighs for European masters, or for ar.ything else than the peace which alone it wants. Erroneous, most erroneous is this idea. In the efforts of t'ne nation to emancipate itself from the power otthe few, who, in good or bad faith, have en deavoured to rule it in their own way, its democratic ten dencies have acquired such a degree of intensity and energy that to expose them, to attempt to destroy the hopes to which they give birth, by a project such as that advanced, would be to provoke a desperate measure ; to endeavour to cure an evil by the means calculated to ex asperate h. Fascinated by the example of a nation not .yet a century old, and which under its own government has attained a degree of prosperity and advantages so enjoyediby those of the old world notwithstanding their antiquity, and the slow progress of their political sys tems, our republic aspires only to the management of its own affairs, either by itself or through representatives in whom it has confidence, in order to develop the vast resources of power and wealth in its bosom. This being therefore its dominant, its absorbing idea, it would have resisted the other plan with all its might ; and if an attempt had been made to change its direction by the employment of foreign bayonets, it would have flown to arms, and war would have burst forth through out its immense territory, renewing even more disas trously the bloody scenes of 1820, and the succeeding . years. From such a state of things, the Anglo-Ameri can race would have derived great advantage for the progress of its ambitious scheme, or for forming a new republic from our interior departments, by exciting their sympathies and gratitude for the services rendered them in repelling a project no less injurious to itself. This tendency, which has been excited in some departments by disappointment from not obtaining provincial liber ties, which they desired, would have become general throughout all ; and no force would have been able to restrain them from carrying such views into effect. On the other hand, the republic being composed for the most part of young men, who have no knowledge of the past, except from the sinister accounts of their fathers, and who, educated with republican ideas, rely with confidence on a Government eminently popular to lead their country to prosperity and greatness--where are the internal supports on which the monarchy pre sented as the means of our salvation can be founded ? That which was has disappeared. Habits of passive obe dience no longer exist ; and if there remains a sentiment of religion, time has undermined the political power of . the directors of consciences. An influential aristocracy, t, so necessary for the permanence of monarchies such as . exist in old Europe, the only proper place for institu . Lions of that class, is not to be found, nor can it ever be organised here. In Europe, the misery of v the great mass of the overloaded population, which depends on its own labour to obtain what is strictly and merely necessary for its subsistence, in the midst of an industry which is so severely tasked, allows no time to the people to think of their po litical rights, nor means to free themselves from the tyranny of the patrician families, on which they depend, all the landed property being in their hands. But no well state of things can be found' in the republic ; in which all is uncultivated, virgin, rich, and fruitful, offer ing to man, in the utmost abundance, and with the greatest facility, all that he can ask for his labour, all that can lead to that individual independence which favours the development of democratic instincts. These difficulties being, therefore, of such a nature as to render nearly impossible the establishment of monar chy in our country, attempts have been made, in order to overcome them, to throw the affairs of the republic into the greatest disorder, preventing the organisation of its Government within, and aggravating the most serious question of our northern frontiers with another nation. In this manner the faction which fostered that para cidal project having attained the first of its endslby many years of artifices and manceuvering, next proposed to carry the second into effect, by provoking, in a manner almost direct, the Government of the United States to aggrandise itself - by taking our rich department of rexas, and then advancing into the very heart of our country. To involve our people in the evils of a fearful invasion has been the last resource, in order to force them to accept its painful alternative ; obliging them to become the prey of Anglo-American ambition, or to fly, for the safety of their national existence, to monarchi cal forms under a European Prince. For this object it was that this party, having the con trol of the Chambers of 1844-45, refused to the Govern ment of that period the appropriations which it asked for maintaining the integrity of the national territory, already seriously jeopardised, It did more, it raised up a revolution, in which the slender allowance made to the Government for that object, on its urgent demands, were unblushingly declared to be suppressed ; and on its triumph, it scattered the means collected for the war, and hastened to recognise the independence of Texas. The chief of this revolution, who has always acted under the influence of his own fatal inspirations, then appeared again in insurrection at San Luis Potosi, with the force destined for the defence of the frontier ; and withdraw ing that force to the capital of the republic, he there iur t e his se th i e te s m ure o r . 3 u r o o p w e e a r n , 4 began to put in opera tionintervention in our interior administration, whilst the hosts of Anglo-American s were advancing to take possession, even of the banks of the Rio Bravo. Having at his disposal considerable forces in the capital and the adjoining departments, he allowed the enemy time to advance, without resistance, through our territory, and at length—most tardily—he sent to Matamoros a small body of troops, needy and unprovided with anything necessary for conducting the campaign with success. Who can fail to see, in these perfidious manoeuvres, the bastard desigrs of attracting these forces of the enemy to our central territories, in order there to propose to us, in the midst of the conflicts of war, as the only means of safety, the subjection of the republic to servitude, the ignominy of the country, the revival of the plan of Iguain—in fine, to return to the government of the viceroys. With this object, and for this fatal moment, which every means was employed to hasten, was a Congress assembled, chosen, for the purpose, composed only of representatives of certain determined classes, forming even a sixth of our population, and elected in a manner, perfidiously arranged, to secure a number of voices suf ficient to place the seal of opprobrium on the nation. Leaving with scarcely a single representative the great majority of the nation, the eleven bishops of our dio ceses were declared deputies, and our ecclesiastical ca bildos were authorised to elect nine others on their parts, giving to the'bishopsithe faculty ofappointing such proxies as they might choose, to take their places in case they should net find it convenient to attend in person. Does not this prove abundantly that a decided endeavour was made to supplant the will of the nation, in order to give some species of authority to this scheme for European intervention in the settlement of internal affairs? The protestations of republican sentiments, made by General Paredes, after thesy irrefragable proofs so fully condemning him, were only new acts of perfidy intended to tranquillise the republic, to set its suspicions at rest, and to arrange the occasion for carrying into effect his base designs. He uttered these protestations in the middle of March last, when he saw the public discontent manifest itself against his power and plans. But what followed? Did he not continue to protect the Tiempo, a newspaper established in the capital itself, for the sole object of rendering republican forms odious, and recommending the necessity of a monarchy; advancing every argument which could be supposed calculated to lead astray the good senses of the nation? Did he con vene another popular Congress? Did he retract the summons which he issued in January, placing the fate of the nation at the mercy of the few men who remain among us of the old regime? Everything continued in the same way, and when the press was prohibited from discussing forms of Government, it was in order to give an amnesty to the writers in favour of monarchy, who were then prosecuted by the judicial power, and to en courage them to continue their criminal publications while silence was imposed on the defenders of the re publican system. Meanwhile he hastened by every means in his power the assemblage of the Congress destined to carry into effect his monarchical plan; he con centrated his forces in order to suppress all movements on the part of the people, alarmed by the near approach of such an unpropituous event; abandoning our frontier to the invaders, or rather surrendering them to the foreign enemy, by the reverses which he had prepared and arranged at Pala Alto and Resaca de la Palma. No, Mexicans! let there be no compromises with a party a hose conduct has been a tissue of cruel treachery towards our country ; have nothing to do with it, how esti r flattering be its promises, and whatsoever the forms with which it may in future invest itself. In the last convulsions of its agony, it sought to assure its safety by its accusto:ned manoeuvres. It proclaimed principles which it detested. It allied itself with bastard republicans, and exhibited itself as the friend of liberty, in order, by that means, to avoid its just punishment, to maintain itself in power, and to continue to determine the edifice cemented by the illustrious blood of the Hidalgos and Morelos. The fraudulent schemes of the enemies of our country being thus unfolded, and the true source of its mis fortunes being laid open to all, the radical remedy of the whole evil consists in putting an end for ever to the ruinous control of minorities, by calling on the nation honestly to fix its own destiny, and to secure its terri tory, its honour, and its welfare. Thus placed in entire liberty to act, as it should be, in the midst of the discussions carried on by the press, in the tribune, and even in the streets and squares, it will take into consideration the evils which surround it, and seek the means of resisting them; and satisfied in its desired mi tress of its own fate, it will display the energy peculiar to a free people, will prove equal to the conflicts in which it is to be engaged, and will come out of them, not only honourably, but, moreover, entirely regenerated. In this way the administration established, resting on, and springing from public opinion, may display all its or ganised forces to maintain its territory, instead of guar. tering them in the central towns, as hitherto, under a Government created by seditious movements, constantly at war with the nation, and occupied solely in endea vouring to save itself, without regard for our external dangers. Fellow countrymen, never has the situation of the re public been so difficult as at present. Its national existence threatened on one side, on the other an attempt has been made to subject it to the hardest of all lots, to European dominion. Such is the abyss to which we have been brought by the endeavour to govern our young society ac cording to the system adopted in the old. This is the true cause of the lon ,, struggle in which we have been engaged which has wea kened our forces, and by which the inte rests of the majority have been sacrificed to the extra vagant pretensions of a small minority. This state of things must be ended, in compliance with the wishes of the nation ; and, by opposing to the former the union of republicans of true faith, the concert of the army and the people. By this union we shall conquer the independ ence of our country; thus united, we shall confirm it by establishing peace on the solid basis of public liberty ; thus united, we shall preserve the integrity of our im mense territory. But now, with regard to the plan proposed for the revolution, it is my honour and my d u ty t o o b serve, that by limiting the • Congress therein proclaimed to.the organisation of the system of government, and the determination of what relates to the serious question of our northern frontiers, the Provisional Government of the nation would find itself required, until the system has been thus organised, to use its own discretion on other points. This would be invest ing the Provisional Government with a dictatorship, always odious, however imperious might be the cir cumstances rendering it necessary. I, therefore, pro pose, that the said assembly should come fully autho rised to determine with regard to all branches of the pnbtic administration, which may be of general interest, and within the attributes of the legislative power ; the provisional executive of the nation acting with entire submission to its determinatiOn. I consider it, moreover, indispensable that a uniform rule be established for the regulation of the interior affairs of the departments ; and that for this purpose the Constitution of the year 1824 be adopted until the new Constitutional Code be completed. By this means we shall avoid that divergency of opinions, at this cri tical moment, when uniformity is so much needed ; the national will which sanctioned that code will have been consulted, and the executive of the nation will have a guide to follow, so far as the present eccentric position of the republic will allow. I submit both mea sures to the will of the departments, expressed by the authorities, who may be established in consequence of the revolution; proposing, moreover, that the Provisional Government of the nation should adopt forthwith the second, as the rule of its conduct, until it be determined otherwise by the majority of the departments, in the form already indicated. The slave of public opinion myself, I shall act in accordance with it, seeking for it henceforth in the manner In which it may be known and expressed, and subjecting myself afterwards entirely to the decisions of the e mstituent assembly, the organ of the sovereign will of the nation. Mexicans ! there was once a day, and my heart dilates with the remembrance, when, leading on the popular masses and the army to demand the rights of the nation, you saluted me with the enviable title of soldier of the people. Allow me again to take it, never more to be given up, and to devote myself until death to the defence of the liberty and independence of the Republic. ANTONIO LOPEZ DE SANTA ANNA. Heroic Vera Cruz, Aug 16, 1846. IRELAND. STATE OF THE PROVINCES. DUBLIN, OCT. 7.—A letter dated Tuam, October 5, in the Freeman's Journal, gives an alarming account of the state to which the population of that town and neigh bourhood is at present reduced:— " I am sorry to inform you that this town, I may say, is in open rebellion—taking away cattle in the open day in spite of the police and townspeople. There was one heifer belonging to William Sinnott taken yesterday on the top of the hill of Tullynadally road, in spite of the drivers. The animal was killed and carried off, and nothing left but the hide and part of the fat. Other cattle were stopped this day. The people cannot help this outbreak, for if they even had money they cannot get bread, as the Galway people are not letting any of it come to us. Mrs. Davis, of Claremorris, was severely injured coming from Galway with flour. The people are watching the batches of bread coming out of the ovens, and almost killing each other for it. Mr. Blake's mill was kept going all day yesterday (Sunday) dressing and grinding whole flour, and they were divid ing it up to two o'clock this morning, so you may judge how the town is. Dragoons are expected here every moment." A writer in the Waterford Chronicle furnishes the 'subjoined sketch of affairs at Dungarvan : " DUNGARVAN, OCT. s.—lt is impossible for the most sagacious to calculate where the present state of things will end. The people are starving ; hundreds are living upon a meal of cabbage and salt in 24 hours. They want employment, and a rate of wages which will support themselves and their families. 10d. a day is offered them, and it is refused ; for that sum would, according to the present price of Indian meal—the cheapest de scription of food—be perfectly inadequate to support more than one man. And I ask, in the name of God, are the wife and children of the wretched labourer to starve ? Soul•harrowing as it is to think of it, there is no other alternative for them, if the Board of Works give only 10d. a day. The stubborn adherence to the ' Treasury minute' appended to the Labour Act, in not giving more than this unfor tunate 10d. a day, is already producing its effects upon the country, particularly in the rural districts in the west of this country. Great bodies of the peasantry are nightly patrolling the county, making visits to the houses of the several farmers, for the purpose of inti midating them into refunding the rents paid for conacre land this year ; alleging, that as the potatoes failed, no value was had, and, consequently, farmers should refund the rents. Already several of the inti midators have been arrested—to the number, I believe, of twenty-four. The military are out every night in search. There is a force new in this town, including police, dragoons, and cavalry, of about seven hundred —a considerable reinforcement is hourly expected. A rumour that about 8,000 armed peasantry were en camped at Ballina.mult, a distance of nine miles to the west of I)ungarvan, was afloat here to-day; in conse quence of which, I have learned, that a force of some thing near five hundred, consisting of dragoons, infan try, police, &c., under General Sir Charles O'Donnell, accompanied by P. C. Howley, Royal Marires, left town this morning at eleven o'clock, and marched towards the place of the rumoured encampment of the peasantry. I trust that no collision will take place. Sad would, in deed, be the result if there should." The accounts from Tipperary are extremely unfavour able. Agrarian outrages, of the old stamp, are daily increasing, destitution lending fresh vigour to the Rockite organisation. THE ARMY. The Queen's Bays, in the Royal Barrack 4, hare re ceived the route for Newbridge. Three troops of the 7th Hussars arrived at the North wall from Liverpool, - and on disembarking from the steamers proceeded on their route to Athlone, which will be the head-quarters of the regiment. THE CONFLICT AT CASTLECONNELL. The Nenagh papers of yesterday give the correct version of the circumstances which led to the less of life at Castleconnell on Sunday last. The military were, it seems, the leading transgressors ; indeed, nothing could be more disgraceful, or subversive of discipline, than the conduct of the draught of the 88th Regiment. The Tipperary Vindicator's account is as follows : " A draught of the 88th Regiment of Foot (the Con naught Rangers), en route to Cork to join head-quarters at present stationed at Malta, passed through Ne nag h on Friday, and appeared rather excited in consequence of drink. They attempted to create a row with the police after nightfall, but they did not succeed, owing in a great measure to the forbearance of the police. On Saturday they marched for Castleconnell, where they arrived that day; and on Sunday night after, we understand, giving annoyance to the police stationed there during the day, in which they were joibed by some of the idle scamps of the place, they proceeded to attack the police barracks, breaking in the windows both in front and rear, when, we regret to say, the police fired, and the consequence was that a poor man who was passing from a chandler's with candles, and the father of a family of seven shildren, was shot dead ; a soldier was also severely wounded, the ball having passed through the latter, who is yet dangerously ill, and hit the former, who died almost immediately. The utmost confusion and excitement prevailed during the night, and throughout Monday, so much so that two pieces of artillery and a large number of soldiers were ordered to the spot from Limerick. An inquest was held before Mr. Bennet, the coroner, when a verdict according to the facts was returned. It is to be re marked that the soldiers appeared to be under very loose discipline. Their conduct during the short time they re mained in Nenagh was by no means calculated to insp're one with a notion of thatsoldierly demeanour which should be observed by the army on all occasions. They seemed particularly obnoxious to the police, and did what lay in their power to annoy and irritate them. We should wish to see the police, too, under th a t str i ct control which would prevent their use of fire-arms in the deadly man ner they used them on Sunday night; and, while we say sn, we are bound to add that peace and order would have prevailed, if the 88th were better conducted and under proper rules ; as it is, an unofl'ending victim has fallen, and serious injury has been inflicted on more than one of the soldiery." According to the Nenagh Guardian, the conduct of the military was even more disgraceful than is represented in the foregoing account. GOVERNMENT PATRONAGE. It is reported to-day that the coast guard and revenue police establishments arc to be amalgamated and placed under one authority. It is intended to make the coast guard a purely naval service—all civilians are to be superseded by lieutenants in the Royal Navy, and the inspector-general by a post-captain—the civilians, in cluding the inspector-general, to retire on p ens i ons, and the service altogether deprived of its civil character. • DEER STALKING. The first week of October generally ends the regular sport of the deer-stalker. A few of the oldest stags will yet be selected, while they roam through the forest, bel lowing and shouting defiance to the younger stags of the herds. The following notes from the cornea are mostly the returns of the last fortnight :—At Torridon, W. 0. Jackson, Esq., stalked four red deer, killing two of the number, both stags, with right end left shots. At Dundreggan, R. Arabin, Esq., ended his sport for the season, with two of the longest range shots we have heard of—killing a stag, with royal and cupped horns, with his first ball, 267 yards distant, and, with the second ball, a hind, 284 yards from the rifle. In his forest, at Rhidorrach, J. H. Mackenzie, Esq., shot three fine stags, one of them with thirteen antlers. Mr. M. has this season killed thirteen stags, the smallest weigh ing 17 stone, and the largest 22 stone. From the same forest, J. G. Craig, Esq., took a splendid stag, with royal horns, beautifully shaped. F::.)na Corriemony, a beautiful head, with horns thickly studded with projec tions, was sent for preservation, and was shot by N. E. Vaughan, Esq. At Lochslsh, E. Buxton, Esq., got a stag and hind ; and at Dundonnel, Captain W. Boyd shot two stags and two hinds. Sir St. George Gore, Bart., stalked and shot five stags last week at Strath vaich—three of them in ono day. We hear that the Marquis of Abercorn, has bad excellent sport this sea son in the forest, having killed some very fine stags, all in capital condition. Cluny Macpherson shot one of the largest stags that has been seen this year on his Aberar der grounds, weighing, as he fell, 24 stones and 3 lbs. At Conon, Capt. B. Knight made an excellent double shot at roe, killing a buck and doo right and left, without taking the gun from his shoulder.—lnverness Courier. The railways in course of Construction in Ireland afford employment to 40,000 labourers, to whom 26,0001 are paid weekly in wages. A loan from the Govern ment to those railway companies that have got Acts of Parliament would double the above return in men and labour,—Limerick Chronicle. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, October 9. (Before Jr. Commissioner SHEPIIERD.) IN RE J. W. ELLIS. This bankrupt, a woollen warehouseman in Cheapside, applied for his certificate. His debts and liabilities are about 8,0001., and assFts • ‘! none." Messrs. Jaques and Edwards were for the assignees, and Mr. Vansandau for Messrs. Swann and Webb, to oppose. . .. ... the ground of opposition was contracting debts with out reasonable means of payment. The bankrupt dis solved partnership with his brother in 1845, and he then continued in business with a deficiency of 900/. There was no capital, but the Commercial Bank of Leeds con sented to advance 1,0001., and the bankrupt's brother gate them security. The bank held several bills to the amount of about 1,900 L, besides a very heavy debt, and about six months before the bankruptcy, the bank ob tained a warrant of attorney. With the knowl,edge of this the bankrupt got goods to the extent of 1,500/., all of which are still unpaid foi. The warehouse is now full, and the bank came in under their warrant of attor ney, and seized property to the extent of 1,400/. It was now contended that the bankrupt had got these goods for the purpose of giving the bank a pre ference over the other creditors, to release the brother's security, and that ho had grossly misconducted himself as a holder. Upon the part of the bankrupt, it was stated that the refits were 1,0001. a year, while the expenses were only 3501., and that the cause of this b an k ruptcy was the re turn of bills, and certa i n credito rs agree i ng to sell upon credit, then claim ing ready money. His lioNoun. said that under the circumstances he must suspend the certificate for six months, with pro tection. IN RE GEORGE WETTENHALL. This bankrupt was described as a stock and share. broker, of Bank-chambers, but has been largely engaged in railway speculations. This day was fixed for the choice of assignees, and last examination upon the fol lowing balance-sheet, th e . principal items in which we subjoin, commencing in May, 1845, and en di ng i n August, 1846:—T0 c!edit cred it ors , 1,4661.; to creditors, on differences, 2,3861.; liabilities, 8101.; and capital, about 1001. By debtors—doubtful, 2,000/4 bad, 1591.; and property, 6/. 103., being the proceeds of o ffi ce furniture. Lord Southampton standing as a creditor for 1,2001. Expenses attending getting up a railway company, which did not succeed (the Somerset and North Devon), which cost me 71. 10s. Sundry differences in Consols, about 300!. , Mr. Beacon said he had to complain of the conduct of the bankrupt respecting a transaction with some Portu guese bands, upon which the bankrupt had advanced 501. They were 6001., and when they were at 52/, he (Mr. Beacon) made several applications for them, but could not get a satisfactory answer. Mr. LAWRANCE (for the bankrupt)—You have not proved your debt, I believe ? Mr. Beacon—l have not. His HoNouß—Then you cannot be heard. Mr. LAWRANCE said that Mr. Beacon was a creditor for 421., which was the difference of what these bonds sold for, and what was handed over to this creditor. If he had to complain of any fraud, he could do so at the certificate meeting, after he had proved his debt. He (Mr. Lawrence) believed that the assignees required a cash account. The balance-sheet was not filed in suffi cient time, and an adjournment must be made. After some further discussion the case was adjourned till the 18th of December, in order that it might be heard before Mr. Commissioner Fane, who would have to decide upon the certificate. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. IRISH LINES. GALWAY AND MOUNTMELLICK. An influential meeting of the merchants and gentry has been held in Galway to meet Messrs. J. G. Adair, Robert Power, solicitor, and William Hogan, C.E., M.R.1.A., promoters of the Galway and Mountmellick Railway. Among the gentlemen present were Francis Blake, Cregg Castle; Nicholas Lynch, Barna; Thomas A. Joyce, Rahasane; Robert Bodkin, Annah ; James Blake, Tully; Francis Comyn, Woodstock • George E. Burke, Danesfield; A. O'Fl a h er ty, linockbane; Major Mahon, Belville; P. M. Lynch, Renmore Lodge; John D. Bon kin, Bengarra; Pierce Joyce; Mountbazel; Rev. John D'Arcy, Vicar's Croft; Charles F. Lynch, Blackrock; Rev. John Moore; Mark A. Lynch, Nile Lodge; Thomas Coming, Ballybrit; James Costello, H.C. ; James Mahon, William N. Nally, Lambert Mahon, J. Stephens, T.C., &c. Upon the motion of the Rev. Mr. D'Arcy, Niehelas Lynch, D.L., was called to the chair. The Rev. Mr. D'AneY said that the object which con vened them was, to meet gentlemen who had proposed to promote the establishment of railway communication between this and Mountmellick. The people of Mount mellick having procured an Act in the last session for a railway from their own town to meet the Cashel line near Portarlington, proposed to extend it now to Gal way. In every district along the line proposed it ap peared to be well locally supported, and it was to run so far southward as to avoid any jealousy from any other company, and to traverse districts rich in agri cultural and manufacturing industry, and where the population was not only numerous, but generally very comfortable. These were great advantages ; and all they were now called on to do, in order to have this project put in a proper train, was to subscribe about 1801 to pay the cost of making out maps of the preliminary survey and some other unavoidable incidental expenses. (Hear, hear.) He thought they would be very culpable, and that it would be a great blot upon their character, if, under such circumstances, they did not support the project now submitted to them. Mr. ADAIR said that he was connected with Mount. . mellick, and that the inhabitants were anxious to effect a railway communication with Galway. For this pur pose they sought the support of influential parties along the proposed line, and he was happy to say that in every case that support was most cheerfully tendered. Lord Clanricarde first proposed that the line should run through Portumna, but upon further explanation of the advantages of its running more northward, he at *nee consented to an alteration in the original plan. The promoters of the line did not wish to have it appear that they wanted in any manner to derive the least private ad vantage from the project.—(Hear, hear.) They wished to leave it in the bands of the parties interested in every locality.—(Hear, hear.) Several solicitors expressed themselves anxious to undertake it, taking chance for their remuneration to the passi ng of th e this ßill could ;bludt a s regarded the eng i neer i ng department, not have been done, as some expense would be necessarily attendant upon p rov idi ng as sistants to aid the principal engineer in hi s sur vey, as well as to lithograph the ma p s . U pon a articulation it was found that this would cost about 6001. The people to the east of the Shannon had sub scribed 2801., which they ,placed in the hands of local trustees. Lord Clanricarde had al so su b scr ib e d , and the inhabitants of Loughrea, who placed th e amoun t i n th e INilaonudnstofc Air.iceli o bert D'Arcy an d Mr. James ,Smith. In w they placed the subscriptions to the credit of Colonel Dunn and Mr. Pim. They had now come to Galway, and all they wanted was about 1501. The pro moters were anxious, under every circumstance, to avoid the handling of the money themselves, and therefore they hoped, that in case this amount were subscribed, it would be placed in the hands of ge n tl emen l ocally in terested, and who would, on the part o f t h e i n h a bi tants, have the entire control of the disbur sements, as i n the other formed, d s t t h r , i e c t s ila gentlemen. — holders, would be allowed for it in the amount of their shares. Mr. Adair then read the form in which the subscriptions were to be subscribed, w hi c h -did away with every fear as to future risk. I n t h e paper which ho held in his hand h e cursor i ly de scribed the principal features of th e un d erta ki ng which was now submitted to them. 1. It was the most direct and practicable line from Dublin to Galway. 2. Th e least expensive in its construction. 3. It accommo dates the best traffic towns in the di s t r i ct. 4. It crosses the Shannon at the most favou ra bl e po i nt for accommodating its great traffic. 5. B e i ng the most direct, it is' the best adapted for becoming the high road to England and Europe generally with America. 6. Its terminus, Galway, being the most westerly port of Europe, and which has been reported by the Tidal llar bour Commissioners as the best harbour for trans-Atlan tic communication on the coast. 7. It will afford to the fisheries on the west coast an outlet and a market— (Hear, hear)—all that is wanting to render them the most prolific districts of the west to be advantageously worked. 8. It will generally tend to the development of the industrial resources of the country—it will stimu late enterprise—throw open to enterprise and capital a county and a harbour which only require to be known to possess the greatest mercantile and manufacturing en terprise and wealth. 9. In conjunction with the Shan non it will afford the greatest and least expensive com munication between Galway and Limerick, and Cork. 10. It will enable the inhabitants in the eastern and midland districts to enjoy the bathing and noble scenery which the various watering places on the western coast present, affording a striking contrast in their cheapness and grandeur of situation to those of tho east coast. 11. It is prom ote d b y t h e unan imou s d es i re o f th e gentry, merchants, and i nha bi tan t s o f th e coun t ry . The survey s and necessary Par li amentary p l ans b e i ng made and l odged at the expense of those parties most directly i nterested in the welfare of the country, sup ported by th e ev i dence of the P ostmaster . G enera l , M r. Williams, a n d of all others best acqua i nte d w i th the wants and present communication with the country—by the unanimous consent and anxious wishes of all the pro prietors along the lino--of the citizens of the towns along its route and its termini, it comes before the public fully challenging inquiry into its merits, with a certain pros pect of success in its execution, and prosperous return for the capital that may be invested in it by its pro moters. Th e old proposal, or Irish Great Western, was 1331 stat u t e miles in length, between Dublin and Gal way, and h a d 93 miles of new railway to effect ; the Mullingar, 1 27 statute miles in length, w i th 76f miles of new railwa y to construct ; but the project which he (Mr. Ad a i r ) now brought before them was only 12 lf statute mil es i n length, and had only 73 m il es of new line to complete.— (gear hear.) These were advantages which nu o th er undertaking yet proposed for connecting this town w i t h the metropolis could present, while it formed the best route for railway communication with the various other districts which it could not ex actly embrace. Parsonstown was far superior to Athlone, for it had a comfortable and numerous po pulation, while Mountmellick was the best manufac turing inland town in Ireland. He saw himself there ono thousand hands engaged in manufacture, and as a proof of their flourishing condition, they were about erecting a gas-house for lighting their ware-rooms alone. Instead of importing cotton from Liverpool, they could directly import it from America by Galway. Were he a Galway man, he would almost go mad to see their magnificent port neglected, but which he was confident was before long destined to become the greatest em. porium of manufacturing industry in these king doms. Mr. Adair then alluded to the Employment Act, and the necessity of limiting its operations, as far as possible, to productive works, and upon a sugges tion from Mr. Spencer Lyndsey, recommended that at the various baronial sessions along the route of the line proposed the magistrates and cess-payers should present for works in that way, which could be after wards purchased at valuation by a company, to lay down rails upon them, or have them set up to auction for that purpose, as in France. He himself would serve notices on the various districts along the line for this object, and would communicate with Mr. Redington upon the subject. Mr. D'Ancv intimated that such a course would be proposed, as far as the town and county of the town of Galway was concerned, at the baronial sessions to be held on Friday next. The plans now lodged with the clerk of the peace for the former railway projects into the town could at once be made use of, and enable them to set the people without delay upon works which would exercise their skill, and be sold hereafter to any company obtaining a Bill for a railway to Galway. The CHAIRMAN expressed his dissent from the sugges tion until it could he shown that there would be a guarantee for their being purchased. After some further conversation on this point, Mr. HOGAN read the report he had drawn up from his provisional survey :—" That the railway will commence at Mountmellick. forty-eight and a half statute miles from Dublin, and will proceed in a direct westerly course, pass ing through Rosenalis, and north of Clon•islee, approach ing within six miles and a half Irish of Tullamore ; thence continuing, it will pass north of Kinnitty and south of Frankford, reaching Parsonstown at a dis tance of twenty-five statute miles from Mountmellick. Keeping to the north of Parsonstown, the line then follows the valley of the Brusna, and at Meelick, two miles and a half Irish south of Banagher, crosses the river Shannon at this point, communicating with the extensive traffic of Limerick at the Middle Shannon ; proceeding from Meelick, the line passes south of Eyrecourt, from whence will diverge a branch to Ballinasloe; then passing north of Kellimor, the line in a straight direction continues, passing through Loughrea and Oranmore to Galway, termi nating there at a distance of 73 statute miles from Mountmellick, and 122 from Dublin, being the best and five miles the shortest line yet projected for Galway. Independently of the advantageous communica tion the line will give Galway to Dublin; it also opens to the town a railway communi cation to Cork, Waterford, and Wexford, a water steam communication with Limerick, Killaloe, and Athlone. I have taken a cursory view of your har bour, and cannot but regard it as admirably qualified, by its situation and advantages, for becoming the port of communication between Europe and America. The ex penditure of a trifling sum would render it the best and eaftest harbour in the country. The future traffic which will arise from the trans-Atlantic communication must form an important feature in the ultimate remuneration to be expected from the formation of this railway. Its vastness will exceed the most sanguine expectations ; but with out taking into consideration this inevitable result, the present existing traffic gives sufficient data to show that the line would be remunerative without any contin gencies. I have made a preliminary survey of the line ; it is the most favourable of construction I have ever been over ; and I can pledge myself that a single line, making provision in the purchase of land, and in the construction of bridges for a double, should the traffic hereafter require it, as I have no doubt it will, in this way can be constructed for an estimate of 7,0002 per mile ; and I think it . is important that railways, which are yet an experiment in this country, should be made in the most economical manner. The crossing of the Shannon has been fixed at Meelick, the cost of which will be of a comparatively trifling amount; it is the most favourable point on the entire of the Middle Shannon, as well for crossing as the accommo dation of the increasing traffic of that noble river. Mr. STEPHENS requested Mr. Adair to state how they were prepared to commence. Mr. ADAIR said that their plans and sections would be lodged, as usual, in his own and the names of other gentlemen as registered proprietors—that then the pro ject would be submitted to the new Railway Beard ap pointed last session, and if they reported in its favour they would then proceed to the formation of the com pany for carrying it out. Mr. ROBERT BODKIN inquired whether they were to form an independent company, or to be supported by any other, as the Mullingar Company appeared to depend on themselves? Mr. ADAIR said the Cashel Company, by their last report, was alleged to support any company projecting a railway from their trunk westward. If the new Railway Board reported in favour of the project, he had not the least doubt of their being able to raise the requisite capital. Mr. ROBERT POWER said that when they were in a positisa to do so, they would call upon the parties in terested along the line to form the company, in order to give them a direct interest in it, and prevent the possi • bility of its being regarded as a gambling transaction. Mr. STEPHENS then detailed a conversation which he had had with Lord Dunsandle and Mr. Ennis, in which the Noble Lord and that gentleman stated their deter mination to extend their line to Galway. After some further conversation, a subscription list was opened, when the gentlemen present at once entered their names for various sums, to be lodged in the hands of P. M. Lynch and John Ireland, Esquires, as trustees, the balance to be collected from those unable to be present. IRISH SOUTH-EASTERN. The directors of this company are determined on pro ceeding, with the line between Carlow and Kilkenny with all possible activity. The lines of railway embraced by this amalgamated company are all in intimate connexion with the Great Southern and Western Railway,.and when made we have no doubt will be rented at a very remunerative profit by that company. The lines are from Carlow to the point of junction with the Waterford, Wexford, and Wicklow line about four miles from Enniscorthy—from Carlow to Kilkenny—and from Kilkenny to Clonmel. There can only be one opinion as to the resources of the districts in traffic through which these lines run. The directors have prudently resolved on undertaking the construction of these lines in divisions ; and fint, they will proceed with the lines from Carlow to Kilkenny, which will undoubtedly prove one of first-class character. It is capable of being very economically constructed; and worked, al it will be, in conjunction with the Carlow branch of the Great Southern and Western Company, the directors may reasonably anticipate a very high rate of dividend, without calculating much beyond the traffic that already exists. When the line is opened it will command the whole traffic of the counties of Waterford and Kilkenny to Carlow and Dublin; and this in itself independent of other resources, will make it a first-class line. By the amalgamation of the Wexford and Carlow, and the Great Leinster and Munster, under the new name of " The Irish South-Eastern," it is manifest that the inter - 'ests of the shareholders have been consulted in the best possible manner, and the most effectual means have been taken to render the lines to be constructed beneficial to the country, and equally so to the proprietors. The line to Kilkenny joins the Waterford and Kil kenny about two miles north of the city, and this por tion is already constructed.--Irish Railway Gazttte. JONDON AND YORK.—At the last meeting of the Lia colu municipality, a memorial to the London and York board, praying them to commence with the loop part of the line, received assent, the corporate seal was affixed, and the document was ordered to be transmitted in time for the important meeting of, the directors on Tuesday, the 6th instant. A committee was then appointed to watch the proceedings of railways, atut to report to the council, with a view of preventing two Mossings over the High -street—the present impression being that the Lon don and York and Great Grimsby and Lincoln purpose to have separate crossings. The navvies engaged on the Lincoln lines during the excavating of the drains leading to Podehole, have had some luxurious meals from the large quantity of eels that have been captured, some of them weighing 51bs each. Hundreds of stones have been taken. Nearly 300 persons went from Lincoln on Tuesday last by railway to Derby races. A Scarborou g h correspondent, alluding to tho fright ful accident recorded in these columns the other day, when a shower of sparks from the chimney of the engine seriously burnt the apparel of several of the passengers, suggests that all third-class carriages should not only be protected, but male fire-proof. TERMINUS OF THE LYNN AND ELY.—Tho terminus for the Lynn and Ely, at the former place, is fast ap proaching completion. The building, which is exceed ingly light and graceful in app arance, has been erected under the superintendence of Mr. Sugars. The covered way for the carriages is upwards of 150 feet long, while the platform for general purposes extends to a much greater length. Convenient and spacious waiting rooms have also been added. It is not intended that the present structure shoull be the permanent ter minus. The rapidity with which the structure was erected is almost incredible, as scarcely a month since not a hammer was heard to resound where now an extensive range of buildings rise. When the line will be opened the entire distance to-Ely, which the forward state of the works indicates will take place within a very short period, the port of Lynn can be attained in something about four hours, making a saving of more than three hours. The hitherto total absence of railway communication to Lynn and its neighbourhood has had a very injurious effect upon the trade of the port; but judging from the increased traffic on the Yarmouth line, it may be reasonably conjectured that Norfolk's second seaport will share in the prosperity which a cheap, safe, and rapid mode of conveyance is sure to bring in its wake. OXFORD, WORCESTER, AND WOLVERHAMPTON —THE WORCESTER STATION.—WORCESTER, FRIDAY.—A great deal of anxiety is displayed on the part of the inhabit ants of this city with reference to the Worcester station of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton R2.ilwa3•. At present the site fixed on by the company is half a mile (or rather more) from the cross, to the east, and is not very easily accessible, the roads being narrow, and a steep hill interveni ng . N umerous suggestions have been made for bringing the line into the centre of the city, near to the cross, an d ma ki ng t hi s locality the station also of all future lin es o f ra il way b rought into Worcester. Yes terday there were held mee ti ngs of the Worcester Town council and Chamb er o f C ommerce, at which this subject was mooted. At the Chamber of Commerce meet ing it was resolved that a deputation should wait upon the directors of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton. Railway Company, and demonstrate to themthe conve nience which wo u ld b e afforded to the Worcester traffic, both in passenge rs an d goods, by having astation in the cityinstead of the suburbs. At the Town-council meet ing there was a similar feeling exhibited, but all active measures in promoti ng t h e object in view were deferred until the next meeting, in order to comply with the ne cessary forms req u i re d . GREAT NORTEERN OF FRANCE.—From the returns made of the receipts of this line, which opened only in July last, the amount received for the week ending the 25th of September shows a remarkable decrease in the sums received the previous week ; this decrease having been 28,512 E 71c., or more than 4,000 f. per day (160/.), the whole amount received for the week for passenger,' conveyance of goods, &c., having been only 259,4281. 89c., or 37,075 f. per day ; 1,4031., or a total of 9,8211. for the week. This decrease in the traffic of one of the most important lines in France cannot Le accounted for, as it joins Paris, running through Beauvais, Amieni', Arras, Lille, Tournay, Valenciennes, Mers d'Auzin, le the Belgian frontier, and the Brussels line, passing through a very commercial, agricultural, and mineral portion of the northern part of the kingdom.
