The Vnitell States and Canadian Emigration So lety, under a Deed of Trust with the owner, has acquired 153,400 acres of Land to Hopkins county, Eastern Texas, latitude 33 deg. n irth, longitude $5 deg. 9i3 min., of which district the county-town is n mei Tarrant. It is proposed, in conformity to the plan of the As3ociation, and after reserving not exceeding one-fourth, to divide this Tract into 1,910 lots, of SO acres each, and to locate thereon 1,910 families. With a view to an equitable distribution of the soil, each allotment to consist of about two-thirds Prarie or lightly-timbered Park-like Pasture-land, not requiring to be cleared for immediate cultivation, and one-third of contiguously situated timbered land, on the streams and head-waters of the Sabine and Sulphur fork of Red Rivers, Which flow through this Tract. Each purchaser of one lot to be also entitled to a Town-lot of one urth of an acre in extent, the site of which is marked on the survey deposited in the Office of the Association. The allotments are so arranged as to be as nearly as possible of equal value, so that priority of choice will become unnecessary. ' Thepur chaser will have his location assigned to him in the follow ing manner, viz.: The Tract is divided into mile-square sections, designated by lumbers. The Society reserves not to exceed one-fourth. Each section is divided into lots, numbered from one to eight, subdivided for assort reent in such a manner that as each purchaser will know, on his arrival on the spot, the exact location that he has purchased, no mis understanding can arise ; the Surveyor of the Association will have the absolute power to decide on all questions of boundary. On a day hereafter to be named, and of which due notice will be given before the sailing of the Emigrant, a drawing of allotments will take place. The names of purchasers will be put into one box, and the numbers of the lots in another : these numbers will correspond with two numbers on the survey, representing two-thirds, and one-third as before mentioned, and these numbers when so drawn will constitute hle purchase. [lt is the intention of the Society to deviate from the proposed mode of allotment in favour of the first 200 Emigrant families, to Whom will be given a priority of choice in those surrounding the town site.] A Certificate of Title in accordance with the numbers drawn will 4 o delivered to the Emigrant, by which the Association binds itself to give him possession of the lot drawn on his arrival in Texas. The sum paid by the purchaser of each lot will include, First.—A free passage from the port of embarkation to the place of settlement, with rations during the water passage and land jour ney, from New Orleans to the town of Tarrant. .._secondly.—Six months' provisions from the time of his arrival there. Thirdly.—Twe bullocks, one cow, filluLcialf, and two pigs. Fourthly.—lmplements of husbandry and seeds, viz.: a plough and gears, a log_ chain and ox-yok.e, a set of harrow-teeth, ten lbs. nails, a hammer, an axe, a spade. a hoe , a grubbing-hoe, a saw, two. augurs, two chisels, a Jalkplane, a scythe, a rake, and a pitchfork, with seeds for the first year's planting. Fifthly. —A log-house, eighteen feet square by ten feet in height, in the erection ief which the Emigrant will have to assist. . A detailed Statement and Sche dule of the articles and necessaries Provided by the society, for the use of the Emigrant, will be deli lered to him with the Certificate of Title, on the payment of the kin specified, in fulfilment of his contract with the Society. Thus the payment :,of such sum as, according to the following 'lnmate, will suit the circumstances of each, will entitle the or family, as. the.case may be, C. the necesssary articles of Illbeistence, stock, and materials, for effecting their settlement on the tlebty acres of land, of which• they have acquired the Fee-siMple Ind obtained pessession.

IRELAND. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) • DUBLIN, FRIDAY EVENING.—The weather continues severe here, the Dublin mountains are covered with snow, and the whole country has the appearance of a second winter. The wind is still at N.E., and no pros pect of a change. THE CORN TRADE.—There was a dull market to-day at the Corn Exchange for all descriptions, but oats met a fair demand, and secondary qualities were rather dearer. There was more inquiry tor Indian corn, and a trifling advance was realised. THE RATE IN AID BILL—From the evidence given on Wednesday by Mr. Twisleton before the Select Committee, the opposition of the rate in aid are in hopes that Munster will abandon the measure. DREADFUL MURDER.—An industrious poor farmer named Curley was barbarously murdered yesterday, near Athlone, by a party of seven ruffian'', who first set fire to an out house adjoining Curly's dwelling, and on the latter making his appearance he was fired at by two or three of the gang, and fell mortally wounded. The unfortunate man was over 70 ears of age.

Every one gives his work—his arm, his by art—his substance. Assembled yesterday ; morning at six o'clock in the Piazza della Vittoria, this prodigious number of people, amounting to more than 30,000, and furnished with every instrument of masonry, walking through the Toledo in the most perfect order, divided in companies and battalions, carrying at the head o f eac h i ts banner, borne either by the ministers of the altar or by citizens with musical bands. And here, hovvlis it possible to describe the emotion of the people, the acclamations of the women, and of those who thronged together in the balconies? A general ' eeriva I resounded every where, intermingled with repeated imprecations on the tyrant; and these blessed sons of Etna, in the drunken ness of their enthusiasm for the salvation of their country, march e d to the place pointed out t'i them by the engineers for the con struction of defences. We cannot describe the im posing scenes which took Thee in the evening. The return of labour showed the true spirit of the Sicilian. The u omen marched to the sound of musical instru ments, the men of all classes followed, singing the tremen dous hprio, • Della pelle del Borbone it tamburo do bliam format.' (of the skin of the Bourbon mid we make our drum), until they arrived beneath the window s o f the Minister of Foreign Affairs, when Ruggiero Set time, the idol of Sicily, spoke patriotic words to the people. In the evening there was a general illumina tion; and thus finished this greatest of demonstrations-- thus Palermo responded to the ultimatum of the infa mous Ferdinand of Naples—of that Ferdinand who was not the legitimate Sovereign of Sicily, by virtue of the 104th article of the treaty of Vienna; but possessed of the simple title only, as of Jerusalem. We await the moment of the rupture of the armistice, to make a slaughter of the .Neapolitans —our only example to tyrants." .. i' /' [PRICE SD. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. The Committee on Foreign Affairs re-assembled on Thursday, and after a long and warm discussion resolved to send a deputation to the PRESIDENT of the Republic to recommend the occupation of Northern Italy by a French force. The following was said to be the resolution adopted by the Committee : " The National Assembly, jealous of ensuring the dignity of Franco, as well as the maintenance of peace, founded on the respect of nationalities, concurring in the sentiments expressed at the sitting of Wednesday by the President of the Council, and confiding in the Executive power, declares that if the Government should think proper to support its negotiations by the temporary oc cupation of a portion of Upper Italy, it may rely on the co-operation of the National Assembly." The Patric announces the arrival of CHARLES AL j° BERT at Lyons. he The Constitutionnel says— " It is announced that the Government has sent by °ales telegraph to Toulon the ord e r f ur t h e em b ar k at i on of at the the division, which is p ar tly th ere an d partly at Mar where *miles. This division i s or d ere d to Ci v i ta V ecchia. " or their In the sitting of the Assembly yesterday, the Mi nister for Foreign Affairs announced that the French Government had received intelligence of the conclu- West India sion of an armistice between the new King of PlED the West In- MONT and Marshal RADETZE.T.

Bois LE COMTE. , The words of Marshal RADETZLY are stated to have been as `follows " The abdication of the King, who, unjustly and with-, out any metii-e, twice declared war ag ai nst nay Sove reign, is the most honourable . ameridethat Austria could demand. Far from wishing to weaken or embarrass the' new King on his advent to his throne, by .the military occupation' of Turin by my troops, I s'nallle happy to act towards the young mcnarch with all the respect and delicacy due to one' so nearly connected with the house of Austria." - TURKEY. Intelligence from Constantinople has been received to the 15th. Rixt PACHA has been dismissed from his post of Seraskier, and disgraced by the SULTAN. NIEIIMET ALL PACHA, Grand Admiral, has been ap pointed Generalissimo, and SULEYMAN PACHA. has been named Capitan Pacha ; other changes are ex pected, so that the character of the future Ministry is at present doubtful. The cause of lirza's disgrace is said to be owing to differences between him and the Generalissimo respecting Wallachia, the latter having made great military preparations for taking decisive steps with regard to that province, without submitting his plans to Rua. The idea of a war with Russia is very popular among the Turks. The Journal du Commerce of Antwerp says— " Several couriers from the British Cabinet, who passed through Berlin within the last few days, were the bearers of dispatches, in which Lord PONSONSY, the British Envoy at Constantinople, informs Lord PALMERSTON that all the representations which he has made relative to the occupation of the Danubian Principalities by Russia have been repelled by that power ; and that the Porte has addressed itself to him (Lord PONSONBY), begging him to demand the active support of his Government to repel the encroach.. ments of the Russians." He has consequently agreed not to enter Turin, and the King of SARDINIA has consented to give or ders for the immediate withdrawal of the fleet from the Adriatic. The peace is to be negotiated under the auspices of the plenipotentiaries of France and England. The new King, VICTOR EMANUEL, en tered Turin on the 27th. During the trial at Bourges on Thursday, the counsel for the prisoners was repeatedly interrupted by the President, for making use of unbecoming language. _ We are assured," says the Constitutionnel, " that M. FORTH ROUEN, Charge d'Affaires of the French Republic at Canton, has written to France for two ships of war, as a precaution against certain events which are feared in China." It is stated in a letter from the Isle de la Reunion (Bourbon) that in consequence of a disease in the sugar cane, the crop of sugar this year is reduced by at least one-third. A rise has taken place in the price of sugar in Paris. PARIS BOURSE.—FRIDAY, MARCH 30. THREE o'CLocx.—The French Funds rose no less than 2f. to-day, in consequence of its being known that Marshal Radetzky had agreed to an armistice on the conditions proposed by the English and French Minis ters. The Funds were exceedingly buoyant all day. The Piedmontese and Roman Funds have also improved. In short, this was one of the brightest days the Paris Bourse has seen since the revolution of February. Ex change on London (30 days), 25 25 money; ditto (90 days), 25 123- money.

At Jamaica, things were represented as being in a very depressed state. DEMERARA. -------------- We have received files of the Colonist of British Guiana up tol the 17th of February. Governor Barkly arrived at George Town on the 13th, and immediately entered upon the duties of his office. Great expectations seem to he entertained by the colonists of the benefits which they will derive from • the rule of Governor Barkly. The Colonist gives the following account of the crops:— " The improved state of the home markets has given a slight impetus to produce here. Grinding has com menced on a few scattered estates, with good prospects of the canes yielding well; but though the weather has been very:, tavourablei for, taking off the crop, we are sorry to say that-many are in too back Ward a con dition to avail themselves of it. We think this year's crop is likely to be a late one, and taking it in.bulk, we fear it will also prove to be a reduced one also." COURT CIRCULAR.

JAMES'S THEATRE.—Last night the final per formance, betore Easter, of the Opera Comique at this theatre, took place, when Auher's Diamans de la Cou• ronne was given in admirable style, Charton singing as charmingly as ever. It is due to Mr. Mitchell again to praise the skill with which he has rendered the resources of his company available, and the excellence of his general arrangements. The artists have been so well selected, that a permanent company could scarcely have produced so varied a repertoire with so little sameness of affect, or with so general a perfection in the ensemble. The band is unexceptionable, and in the choruses there has been a manifest progressive improve ment. Mr. Mitchell's programme is still far from being exhausted. - - Mr. Hudson, M.P., has returned to town and ap peared in his place in the House of Commons. MR. JERMY's WILL—The will of the Late unfor tunate Mr. Jermy, sen., of Norwich, was deposited in Doctors' Commons on Thursday, and the property was sworn under 9,000/. DEATH OF VIE REV. HENRY CHAPLIN.—Much gloom has been cast over Stamford and its neighbour hood by the demise of the Rev. Henry Chaplin, Vicar of Ryhall, on Thursday week, after a short but severe ill ness, in his 59th year. The complaint which termi nated thus fatally was inflammation of the chest, acce lerated, it is said, by grief for the loss of his eldest son a few weeks back. Mr. Chaplin was greatly beloved by his parishioners for his unvarying affability and libe rality. He was brother to Rober Chaplin, Esq., of Blankney, one of the largest, if not the largest, landed proprietor of the county of Lincoln, to whose estates deceased, had he been the survivor, would have succeeded; consequently his eldest surviving son is now the heir apparent.—Lincolnshire Chronicle. ExEcuTION.—MAIDSTONE, MARCH 29.—Millan, who was convicted for the murder of on old man at Bethersden, in this county, was executed, pursuant to his sentence, at the county gaol yesterday. The culprit was brought out a few minutes before twelve o'clock, and after praying a short time the fatal bolt was drawn, and he died withLut a struggle. lie was only seventeen years of age, and appeared to meet his fate without re gret. The prisoner Sheenevash has been respited on ac count of his evident weakness of intellect. He will be placed in a lunatic asylum. THE FORTHCOMING VACANCY TOR SOUTH NOTTS. —NEWARK, THURSDAY.—The influential ludowners connected with this constituency have this week had re peated consultations as to who shall be selected as their representative, in the room of Colonel Rolleston, who has signified his intention to resign; and it is confidently stated, that Robert Bromley, Esq., eldest son of Sir Robert Howe Bromley, Bart., of Stoke-hall, has con sented to offer himself as a candidate. Mr. Bromley's political views are said to be Liberal Conservative, opinions which will hardly coincide with those of the tonal-Lawn of rho loth division. SPAIN. Madrid journals of the 24th have arrived. The Gaceta, publishes an order for a Court mourn ing of six days on account of the death of the King of HOLLAND. MADRID BOLSA, MARCH 24.—The Funds have somewhat declined today.

The intelligence received direct from the seat of war is only to the 25th, and consequently is not of so 'Ate a date as that which the Government has received, ar.d which was announced in the house of Lords last ThePiedinontese Gazette publishes a supplement, dated the 25th, containing several bulletins received on the 24th. The first is a mere repetition of the account of the attack upon Vercelli on the 23d. The second gives accounts up to three o'clock r.m. of the 24th, stating that the roar of artillery had been heard at Casteggio and Lu, near the Po. A third bulletin, dated the 25th, at three A M. , states that none of the messengers sent from head-quarters had been able to reach the capital; that, at half-past one A.M., one of the officers sent by Government had returned, without being able to penetrate to the Pi e d mon t ese h ea d- quar t ers , or to receive positive information respecting the army; but a letter from the syndic of Casale informs the Go vernment that a body of Austrians having appeared there, the municipality sent to parley with the Aus trian General. The latter having demanded the evacuation of the castle, the governor refused. By another :letter from the syndic of Trino, it appears that the castle of Casale was subsequently attacked at half- past eleven, and that the attack lasted till three P.M., When the Austrians proceeded to Moreno, with the intention of marching upon Trino. The supple ment also contains a circular to the curates, dated the 24th, inviting them to use their influence in call ing to arms all those who are capable to bear them, and even recommending the country people to use their agricultural implements instead of arms. It is said in private letters from Turin, dated the 25th, that RADETZKY published a proclamation after the battle of Novara, announcing that he came not to plunder the country, but to save it from anarchy. He, however, threatened to burn Turin if he met with resistance. his advanced posts on the 24th were only four leagues distant from the capital. It appears that during the battle the Queen's Brigade and the Cuma Brigade, commanded by General BUSSETTS, dispersed at the first shots, the General himself abandoning the field after receiving a slight scratch. All the other brigades fought nobly. On the 23d a court-martial was held in the fortress of Alessendria on General RAMOItINO, who was con victed of high treason, and shot the following morning. The Milan Gazette of the 244 publishes the first bulletin of the Austrian army, in which it is stated that the Austrian army crossed the Ticino at Pavia on the 20;:h at noon, and that a desperate conflict took place at 'Mortara on the 21st, ending in a vic tory on the part of the Austrians; and that another engagement took place at the same time at Gambol° ; the result of the latter is not stated. The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa, of the 24th, states from Rome that, when, in the sitting of th e Constituent Assembly of the 16th, MAZZIANI began to speak of the sacrifices the war would call for, a shower of ear-rings and jewels fell from the tribune reserved for the ladies. Letters from Venice of the 16th, quoted by the Genoa Gazette, state that a small Venetian fleet had joined the Sardinian fleet, to assist in an expedition, the object of which was suspected to be Trieste. General PETE was preparing for an expedition on the Venetian continent. Letters from Rome, of the 21st, state that before the end of the month the Republic will have 30,000 muskets, besides those she has purchased in France and Belgium. At the end of the :week the national foundry will turn out two pieces of artillery, com pletely mounted and furnished. In two months we shall have artillery sufficient for an army of 40,000 men. Fourteen more battalions of the National Guard are mobilised. The troops have received orders to march on the Po. _ _ _ The Roman Moniteur announces that the Republic will not acknowledge any passports, visas, &c., ema nating from the nuncios, who have now no authority as representatives of the Roman States. NAPLES AND SICILY. The Bulldog steam• frigate left Naples for Palermo on the 25th with new conditions of a more favourable character. It was said that Mr. Tkairts apd M. DE RETNEVAL would themselves, proceed to/ Palermo, although it is not probable that the Sicilians will accept any conditions short of absolute indagepdence. The people are actuated by the most patriotic spirit. The following extract from a Palermitan paper, de scribing the doings in that city on the.l7th, will show the state of feeling of the Sicilians with regard to FERDINAND:— " Words fail us, and our emotion is so great that we cannot describe what we have seen and observed, and taken part in. The country is in danger. The FRIDAY. The Farmers' Handicap of 50 Sovs., and 5 for the se cond horse. Heats, once round.

Oats and -oae meal moved off slowly at late rates. In barley and peas there was little done ; but Egyptian beans must be noted dearer: Only a moderate demand was experienced for barrel flour, and 23s per barrel must be quoted as the top price of Western Canal.

Yesterday ea ening, - a little ufter nine o'clock, a man, supposed to be the murderer, was brought to the police office in High-street, by Mr. Miert Samuel, outfitter, cor• ner of Stewart-street, Great Howard-street. The Pri soner had been several times during the diy at the shop of Mr. Samuel, ofreing a gold watch for sale. Mr. Samuel suspected, from the urgency with which he pressed the sale, that the watch had not been honestly obtained, and asked the man to walk to the police office. That he consented to do, and when he reached the office his general appearance raised the suspicion that he was the person for whom such anxious search had been made. His dress was changed, however. In stead of a hat he wore a cap. Ile had a pair of new blue trousers on, new stockings, and a new silk hand kerchief in his peat t. His hair is cut off straight be hind, giving it the appearance of being short. The prisoner answers exactly the d2scription given of the murderer. He had a wild and confused look, and ap peared somewhat in liquor. When asked if he had been drinking, he said he had taken a few glasses. He acknowledged that ho was at Tranmere on Tuesday; and when asked where he was on Wednesday, he said he was about the docks. The boy M‘Dermott, who delivered the letter for him at 20, Leveson-street, and who had conversed with him for some minutes, and had seen him again at the house, picked him out from amongst eight other men, and speaks positively to him. Again, the prisoner was placed in the middle of fourteen men, and another man, who had seen hint on Wednesday, was asked to pick him out if he were present. After examining the men, he said the man with the cap (the prisoner) was the. leer son, if he were amongst them, but he should not like to speak positively unless he saw him with a hat on his head. Whilst standing amongst the crowd of men, the prisoner betrayed considerable forced levity, remarked that the police should be sure of a man before they ap prehended him on suspicion, and made other confused , observations. There is a peculiarity about his mouth! , and teeth, which is more apparent when he speaks, that' would render his identification a matter of greater cer-' tainty by one who had conversed with him. The prisoner, when asked his name, said it was John Gleeson Wilson, and that he was au engineer. Mr. Cox's boy failed to identify the prisoner. When Mr. Dowling took off the cap from the head of the man he seized hold of it, and said, " That's mina; I paid foi that with my own money." (From a Second Edition of the Liverpool Mercury.) The man, John Gleeson Wilson, who was apprehended to-night, has just been ordered by Mr. Dowling to be locked up on the charge of wilful murder. Without at all attemptin; to prejudge the case, we may state there can be no doubt he is the man for whom search has been made. A person answering his description exactly called at the house of Miss Harrison, 19, Upper Pitt street, on Wednesday afternoon, and asked for lodgings, .and the same afternoon he offered the gold watch for sale at Tranmere. The mother of Mrs. Henrickson, who arrived in town from Hull to-night, has identified the watch and chain found in the possession of the pri soner as those belonging to her daughter. A purse also found upon the prisoner has been identifid by the char woman who was in the habit of washing at the house as the property of Mrs. Henrickson. The prisoner stated he bought the purse at Bristol, and also one of the shirts, of which he had three on his back, one of them having lately undergone partial washing about the sleeves. Mr. Superintendent Clough having cautioned the prisoner, told him he was charged with the wilful murder of two children. He replied, in a half-careless, half-impetuous manner, "I am satisfied to stand my trial for it." Mr. Dowling ordered the prisoner to strip, and stains of blood were found upon his black silk handkerchief. As before stated, he had three shirts on, his trousers, cap, and neckerchief were new. On Wednesday even ing he lodged in a house in Porter-street, in this town where he had given a shirt stained with blood to be washed. Police-officer Toole went to this house after his apprehension, and there found a hat with crape on. This hat answered exactly the description given in the bills, and when placed on the head of the prisoner, con siderably changed his personal appearance. When the hat was shown to him he said, " That is mine; I'll prove it." The prisoner has only been married a few months. He left his wife at Mr. Lewis's house, Lower Tranmere, about two months ago, and where he has been since his friends were not aware, although they heard he had been at London, Bristol, and other places. A police officer was dispatched to Lower Tranmere, and he ob tained a letter in his own handwriting, which had been addressed by the prisoner to his wife. On comparing the writing with 'the directions of the letter found near the poud at Windsor by Mr. Caine, they were found to correspond. l When n-ked where he got the trousers, the prisoner " That is for you to find out." The boy fronin-hj e‘ m he to. , k the pr,lat,e4.,4* the doer,. now speaks p4siiwly to the prisoner, and in teeing the differ ence in thc,..ountenance which is made by substituting the hat for the cap, there is no wonder that a mistake at first in the identity should be the consequence. Late as the hour was, the news of the apprehension of the sup posed murderer spread through the town, and there was a considerable number of persons in the neighbourhood of the police-office. Mr. Dowling, at the time the news reached him, was at the Collegiate Instituticn hearing Jenny Lind, and when the intelligence was conveyed to hirn, it soon was whispered about that an important com munication had reached the head constable, and consi derable sensation was evinced in the bull. The prisoner appeared exceedingly restless and con fused. The fingers and thumbs of his hands he moved quickly together, and although when the hat was brought into his presence he betrayed little change in his countenance, all his former levity disappeared. When asked to what country he belonged, he replied, to Tip perary, and added that he was a fitter. The prisoner has a country look, and speaks thickly. No part of this horrible tragedy is more remarkable than the so far concluding scene. That plunder was one of the objects of the murderer, no doubt now remains, but that a man (if he be the person) guilty of so enormous a crime, should hover about, as it wt re, that place where detec tion was inevitable, and that he should himself agree to walk to Bridevvell, to clear himself from the suspicion of stealing the watch, are some of those inexplicable circumstances connected with the dreadful crime of mur der which can be accounted for by no human being; but it proves that— 1 ‘ Murder, though it hath not ongue, IVill speak with most miraculous organ." LIVERPOOL, FRIDAY : The prisoner John Gleeson Wilson was this morning taken to the Southern Hospital, when Mr. Henrickson's servant girl immediately identified him as the man who had attacked her and murdered the children. He was then reexamined before Mr. Tushton, and remanded to Saturday (this day). He bears the appearance of a seaman. CITY COURT FOR THE RECOVERY OF SMALL DEBTS.—March 28. TAYLOR V. DENIS MOYLAN, ESQ.-SUING THE JUDGE OF A COUNT? COURT. Mr. B. Taylor, of the 'firm of Taylor and Co., pt inters, applied to Mr. Bullock, the judge of the court, for an order against Denis Moylan, Esq., th e Judge of the Westminster County Court for the Recovery of Small Debts, for the payment of certain fees incurred in a case in which the applicant was plaintiff and Mr. Moylan was defendant. On the day before that appointed for the hearing of the case the amount of the debt contracted by Mr. Moylan, and part of the expenses incurred, had been paid, but there were other expenses which sprang from the course adopted by the defendant, and which it ap peared by all the rules of common justice the defendant wes bound to discharge. Mr. Taylor's claim upon Mr. Moylan was for printing executed eight years ago. He had repeatedly applied for the amount without effect, and the defendant had at length given notice that he would plead the statute of limitations in answer to the demand; that subsequently a hearing of the case had been appointed to take place in that court, and that the night before the amount e the demand was paid into court, notwithstanding the special plea alluded to. Mr. Taylor said that Met Moylan had offered to pay the debt, exclusive of the expenses, upon finding that the claim was not likely to be relinquished, but the proposition was rejected, for expense and trouble had been incurred. It bad been necessary to sub peens witnesses to prove the handwriting of Mr. Moylan, and to exhibit the post mark of a letter, the date of which proved that the debt was not affected by the statute of limitations, as it proved the existence of the debt within eight years. He had been obliged to employ an attorney to meet a gentleman who must be presumed to be well acquainted with the practice of the court, inas much as he was a judge in a similar tribunal. lie had also been obliged to go to the expense of sending notices round to his witnesses not to attend on the 23d inst.; as the money had been paid into court, and their attend ance was thus rendered unnecessary. Those 'expenses Mr. Moylan was certainly bound, but had refused, to pay; andit was hoped that an order would be issued to compel tho payment. Mr. Taylor's attorney submitted that there was nothing in the Act of Parliament to prevent the judge fi om exercising a discretion in the case, if it happe ne d that any omission of form intervened. Mr. Jupp observed that the application for the addi- I tional costs sought by Mr. Taylor ought to have been made befero, and referred to the dates in his books. Mr. BULLOCK said the only question appeared to be, whether the plaintiff hid made his application in time? Mr. Taylor's attorney said he hop( d that if his Honour had any objection to make un order fur the payment of the costs, he would grant a rule to show cause why th e defendant refused to pay the extra costs into Court. Mr. BtiLocx—Of the validity of the claim there is no doubt. The point is whether you are in time. You may take a rule to show cause. At the annual general meeting of the Royal Astro nomical Society, Sir John F. W. Herschel! presented to that body a finely-executed marble bust of their late President, Francis Bally, D.C.L. (the gift of Miss Baily, his only surviving sister), with an appropriate address, which appeared in the society's transactiQns for Febru ary, 1849.
