The Mt cling was mt.st numerously attended, the Church being- 'nearly full, as the subject bus ex cited great interest in the purists. At halt-past five o'clock, the Chair was taken, when Mr. Wood and other Gentlemen made long and able speeches against the proposed measure, observing, that by the parishionet3 being rated for such erections, the parish would be greatly injured; that they had near 6000 pour to relieve weekly, and that the present state of the parish could not afford any such measure. A series of resolutions were then read, strongly deprecating the proposed erection, which were earr;rd with only eight dissentients. Another re sol:itiOn was theu proposed and carried, that a So licitor should be appointed to oppose the Bill in ratliament in all its stages.

An Inquisition was taken yesterday, at the Bri tannia, in Berwick -street, before A. - GhLL, Esq. the Westminster Coroner, on the body of Mr. Richard Jennet, a currier and leather-seller in the above 3t r ect, who hung himself on Monday. It appeared from the evidence that the deceased had been labouring for some time previously un der a dejected state of mind.—Verdict—" Insa nity." A DISTRESSING CASE OF SUICIDE.-Yesterday an Inquest was held at the Maley Mow, Mount street, Groseetior,square, on the body of Jane Elliot, the wife of a carpenter, who put a period to her existence by taking a quantity of laudanum. This case disclosed circumstances which were extremely distressing, for it appeared that the deceased had been impelled to the rash act under feelings of finer sensibility than gene rally charactetize women in her humble sphere. She had been only four months married, and was a fine young woman only 20 years of age. tier husband took her to a lodging, No. 5, Reeve's-mews, Grosvenor-square, where not being able to pay the rent, as he could get no work, and wanting even the common necessaries of life, they were oat long allowed to remain; and the deceased, before they removed into a dis mal apartment in an adjoining house was tempt ed to steal some feathers from the bed they had previously lain on, and put them into a sack, which was to serve as a substitute for a bed in the cheerless abode to which their wretchedness had driven them. The theft, however, was dis covered, and though the owner of the property humanely declined to prosecute, still so acutely did the poor woman feel the loss of cha racter she had sustained, and which got her Inthhand dismissed irons a temporary employ ment, that she came to the dreadful purpose of making away with herself in the manner describ ed. It appears that she purchased the laudanum in small dozes its different apothecaries' shops.— tier nnfortunate husband was seen yesterday morning weeping bitterly, and exclaiming that he could 110 t Waite his wife.--Verdict--" u4q." IRELAND. LIMERICK, JAR. 22.—Between the hours of and 9 o'clock last night, a mob, consisting of up wards of 50 men, went to the house of 11Ir. Csn who keeps an inn and yard, in Upper Wil liam -street, broke open the gate and stole from oti a car, which was laden with corduroys ; &c. from Cork and Bandon, for sale in this eity,goods to the amount of upwards of 801. Mr. Benson, a high constable, directly brought a parry of the mili tary front the main guard, but the villains escaped, after demolishing the windows of Coomey's house, and cutting More of the same goods which had been deposited therein. Informations have been taken of this shameful Outrage by Alderman lVat son, and we hope that the perpetrators will not long elude justice. - A Gentleman who has travelled through the disturbed districts, in this county, has this day informed us, that matty country Gendenten, have for the present, abandoned their rest fences, and taken tefuge in the towns adjacent to their houses ; so apprehensive are they of being at tacked by those nocturnal incendiaries, who so unhappily distuth the repose of this heretofore tranquil county.—(Connaught Journal.) A young man named Morgan, of Rillowan, was lost in the snow on 'Tuesday night, near the Three mile Lodge, on the Narrow-water road, Newry, and, notwithstanding the exertions of several hundreds of his friends and neighbours, his body has not yet been found ; the fences on both sides of the road have been searched without effect.-- 7 The snow in many parts of the road is as high as be fences. ESCAPE OF WADP, FROM NRWOATR.—On Friday night last, about t ►vo o'clock, Wade, whose trial for forgery on the B a nk o f I r eland ex cited so much public attention some time back, effected his escape from Newgate. Wade, it is said, got out of the prison disguised with a red wig, his eye-brows painted red, and false whiskers, &c. Mr. B 3 urns, the keeper of the prison, has beets confined to his bed since Wednesday last with a fever, and Mr. Hendon, the Deputy Gaoler, ivas at the time in another part of the prison, seeing the different apartments locked up ; he had seen Wade about half-past ten that night. It is supposed he went out at the same time that some visitors were going. Every possible effort has been made to. secure his arrest. The Deputy Gaoler is on the alert ; a reward of 1001. has been offered for his apprehension ; or 501 for such pi ivate informa tion as may lead to his discovery.—(Dublin Corre spondent, Jan. 24.) With feelings of deep concern we have to an trounce a circumstance that has just reached us of a most painful nature. A funeral passing from the shore to a small island in the great Lough above Killaloe, the friends and relatives of the deceased thou.,,tht the ice suffiziently, strong to carry the corpse across, when it unfortunately broke, and, shocking to relate, the remains of the deceased were precipitated into the water, and number of people, who were conveying the corpse, fell in and perished. The numbers that suffered are differently stared ; but as a - circum stance of this kintl - is generally over-coloured by the feelings it excites, We shall forbear mention ing the number, until we are better infor used as to tie extent of the calamity.—(.Limerick Advel ) VIGEON SIIOOTING.—The first Meeting of the 1 Midgliam Club took place on:f nesday, in Crows..., ley meadows, when the silver tankard was shot for by fifteen Members of the Club, at fifteen birds each, twenty-one yards distance from the, trap. The second prize was ten guineas, and five to the thild best shot, cut of the Club funds.

The industrious habits of our working classes are again in full activity from the breaking tip of the frost. No other circumstance could prove more exhilarating to a benevolent mind, unless it were the near approach of the Drawing, which will positively take place NEXT SATURDAY, when the Two Prizes of 20,0001. will be decided, and impart joy and happiness to numerous adven turers. The last Prize of 20,0001. Sterling, and the last Prize of 20,000 Guineas, were Sold in Shares at No. 19, Cornhill, and 26. Oxford -street, the fortunate Offices of G. CARROLL. EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCE , ..--A man, named Dutton, who is a pensioner of t wenty• pence a day, living in Nottinghamshire, having spent at once the whole of his quarter's pension, concealed himself upor► the top of a hay-stack, where he lay ten days, without any other sustenance than, no..sr and then, a drink of water and a quid of tobacco. Dutton had entreated the man who brought him the water, not to discover him to his friends, t:r to the overseers, assigning► as a reason for this re quest that they would fetch him, and deduct from his next quarter's pension the expenses of his maintenance. Upon his being taken home at last., he soon recovered.—(Chester Courant.) Two caverns were discovered, last week, at Gravesend, by the sinking of the earth. These excavations are most probably ancient chalk-pits of Roman origin. Oit the south side of one of them are the remains of a flint arch, about two f eet wide, leading into the other. ;MIGRATION' TO CANAbA, (From Ike Waterford Cio'onicle.) The followi4g important Document has been transmitted to us from a most respectable source, and we have the sincerest satisfaction in laying it before the Public. It contains much new and valuable information to the inhabitants of these Countries, and it. is powerfully calculated to pie vent a recurrence. of those calamities which it de plores in simple but energetic language. The principles on whcli Emigration to Quebec ought to be undertakep, and the consequences which may result front :such a plan to ameliorate the condition of life,,..are fully and explicitly describ ed. There is no. concealment. The good and the evil are honestly and candidly set forth, and those who wish to leave't heir native Country are thoroughly apprised of the evils with which they may have tp contend, and of the only substantial grounds on which they may rest ti•eir hopes of prosperity. A large field of enterprise is opened up—but the candidates, Eke soidiets to the bat tle, must enter upon it ,deft adequate prepara , . Lion ; the attempt will otherwie prove nt telly abortive. Emigrations have hitherto been frequently made upon hazardous grounds, with out that knowledge, and without that prepa tation which are indispensable to success; and it is here, especially, that the great importaptc of the Quebec Emigrant Society manifests itself in the most striking light, and that their recommettdatoa to form Associations in Englaod and Ireland, comes upon the Public oitli ittesistihle force. The Members of that Society, emioent both for station and character, have urformed >to illustrious and salutary duty tO the British Empire ; and it be comes the unavoidable obligation-ot England and Ireland to follow, without delay, an example of generous and redeeming utility. The Quebec So ciety have solicited pecuniary anti the efforts which they themselves have made cannot but meet with the warmest concurrence of every liberal and patriotic mind; but there is something in their Appeal of even greater mAgnit tide than pecuniary aid. Multitudes tvho desire to emigrate have not that information which is requisite to their future happiness, and may, therefore, expose themselves to the privations and afflictions against wLich the Address so solemnly and so emphatically w airs them. Let Associations, " composed of ins lli- gent and" benevolent individuals," be estai fished in Englanti and lieland, who will correspond with the Quebec Association, and who will furnish Ad venturers with the necessary knowledge—and the distresses which have already been experienced, will, in a great measure, if not totally, be avoid ed in time to come, Numerous charitable insti tutions exist in Ireland, which have exalted her reputation, almost above that of any other coun try in the world. A new source of benevolence is here disclosed, which announces in its princi ples, and promises in its issues, blessings of a pe culiar excellence, and which are likely to endure through many generations—but we forbear ; the subjoined Document speaks far more strongly than any thing we nee able to urge, and we rest satisfied, that its claims will be duly and effectually appreciated :-- At a Special Meeting of the Emigrants' Society, held in the Grund Jury Room of the Court•house ' at Quebec, the llth October, 1819, Present —The Lord Bishop of Quebec, the Hon. Mr. Justice Kett . , the Hon. W. Pe Colt. man, the Hon. W. Scott, Lieut.-Colonel Harvey, C. B. Dep.-Adjt. General, Commissary-Getieral Wood, John Wright, M. D.

Jebb, Royal Enltincers, John Stewart, Benjamin Tremain, Henry Black, John Neilson, James George, Esqrs. Resolved—That it appears expedient to the Meeting, that an Addre,;s S hcsul l be drawn up to the Public in Great Britain and Ireland, solicit ing the contributions of the charitable in aid of the funds of the Society ; and, at the same time, stating the actual Cirr tiffibt fleeS of distress which ' man y Emigrants have been placed in, and the resources of which they ought to be possessed upon their arikal, to give them a fair chance of uHrnate success in establishing themselves in thi s Country. ADDRESS. The Members of the Qtcbec Emigrants' So. ciety, in c,:trying the above Resointion into ef fect, are anxious to have it understood, in the first place, that it is by no means the principle of their body, nor the object of the present measure, to discourage Emigration. On the contrary, they profess themselves (I , 'eply sensible of the benefits thence resulting to these Colonies ; they truly appreciate these benefits ; they would rejoice also in contributing to relieve their Molber Country from the evils of a redundant population ; and they would feel that they had much to answer for, were they to become instrumental in check ing this valuable influx of inhabitants into a Country, the very face of which invites them, as it were, to the experiment, and opens to their industry vast tracts of land unreclairned from the wilderness, which are capable, finder the hand of Art, of yielding the means of sustenance, ~nit the comforts of life, to many millions of hu- man beings. But the local experience of the List few years has amply shewo, that some measures are neces sary to place the system of Emigra . ion under proper regulations—to provide. against many evils and much misery ;rising from the ignorance and mismanagement of the persons who emigrate— and to preserve, with the smallest possible de ductions, the advantages on either side accruing. Tinder the infl,!ence of these impressions, the Society proceed to state, in a specific form, the objects of the present Address—the first of which rndce an appeal to the Compassion ft n d gene rosity of the British and Irish Public, in behalf of their own countrymen, arriving as strange's in ;his Province. The number of Emigrants who have arrived t the port of Quebec, since the opening of tl►e tut vigation for the presvnt season, amourtts to up wards of 12,000, whidi probably exceeds 2-thirds of the populatlon et the City itself. It ,vill readily be believed, that a very considerable proportion of these ate utterly destitute upon their arrival;
