as I can clap my hands. I heard no noise or shouting before or after the firing, except the screams of the wounded and the friends of the deceased. I don't know if the people carried sticks with them. I took no notice of them. There was a crowd of persons assembled near the high road on the ap proach of the military. I saw some of them running across the fields before the army came up. I heard the noise of a horn on the same morning, but I do'nt know from what direc tion it came. Neither my son nor myself had made use of Sticks. Thank God, we have the character of being honest. It was near seven o'clock before the Court rose. WEDNESDAY—FOURTH DAY. _ _ The Coroners and Jury re-assembled at half-past ten o'clock. The Rev. Archdeacon Ryder appeared in Court for the first time since the Inquest commenced. He was soon joined by his brother, the Rev. Joshua Ryder, and Captain Bagley. Michael Hely, of Ballynure, was the first witness produced.— Having been sworn, he proceeded—l reside in the parish of Gort roe and Desert. I was present, on Thursday last, at the transac tions of the day ; I was standing inside the hedge in the Widow Ryan's haggart ; a man named Bryan was near me, but I did not know any of the other men there, many of them being strangers ; people were up from me, down from me, and around me, several were standing on a heap of straw that was within the ditch bound ing the Bohreen. 'When I got upon the ditch, I saw a man named Barry ; he was standing on the cross ditch between M'Auliff's and Mrs. Ryan's barns. I saw horsemen in the Bohreen facing the haggart of the Widow Ryan. I saw the Rev. William Ryder. There he is now opposite me. He was on horseback. I saw him first riding with force from the Widow Ryan's, till he situated himself between the horsemen. They were at this time near to M'Auliff's stable. I heard the Rev. William Ryder order the horsemen to " load." They immediately returned their swords to their scabbards, and loaded their pistols. I saw them put something into their pistols. When I saw them loading their pistols, I got on the bounds ditch between M'Auliff's ditch and the haggart. I was then close to Barry. In the course of a minute or two, or three, Mr. Ryder gave orders to the soldiers (the cavalry) to fire ; they did fire, and Michael Barry, who was on the ditch, dropped. He fell on the dunghill inM'Au- Mrs yard. I saw him bleeding in the forehead; I knew he was dead. I then threw myself into the dyke, rolled myself into the corner of the bawn, and lay there until the firing was over. About 30 or 40 people were on the bounds ditch, on which Barry and I stood, and in Mrs. Ryan's haggart. I don't think there were more than 13 or 14 horsemen (cavalry) present. The foot soldiers were, at this time, in a little field opposite the haggart, leading to the Middleton road. I saw no foot soldiers in the. Bohreen ; they might be there behind the horsemen for aught I know. When Barry was shot, neither he nor any of those on the ditch were doing any thin. Cross-examined by Mr. Wood—l can't tell `then I last paid Church rates. A warrant to enforce church rates was executed on me. I don't know who issued the warrant. The Police told me it was issued by Mr. O'Callaghan, Mr. William Ryder, and Captain Bagley. lam no adviser of the people, I did'nt speak to any people about Church rates. The Police seized my great coat-for the Church rates, and I left it with them. I can't tell whether this transaction took place a year and half ago, or two years. I have not paid my tithes to Mr. Ryder-- neither did I day Capt. Collis. Mr. Ryder told me he would make an allowance of one-fifth if I paid him his tithes. I did'nt avail myself of that offer, for I heard that few in the country paid tithe. I would not be the first man to pay in the country ; I would rot like to be the first to break the law of the country. I heard the intelligence about the break of day that morning. 1 heard many horns sounding that morning—that is, I heard two horns. I saw a little yorsoon blowing a horn when the military approached ; the military were then coming down from the cross of Bartlemy. I had not a stick in nay hand that day. Some of the people had sticks. They ware hand sticks, and some of them stouter ; but the people did not ih.row sticks or stones that day. Captain Pepper told me that the soldiei,; told him that the country people were putting stones into their pockets. I said the people were belied, for, firstly, they had no intention of throwing stones, and secondly, the place was covered with straw—(Addressing Captain Bagley. )—Do you, Sir, recollect your telling me, on the Monday before, to go for a Priest, or there would be blood shed ? Captain Bagley—l recollect it. I did say so. Witness—Did you, Captain Bagley, see a stick or stone with me on the 3knday, when the soldiers were at Magrath's ? Captain should say I did not. Witness contincied—l don't know how many of the people had sticks—some had sticks—some had wattles, as you call them. There were not many people opposite the dragoons when they fired, and the people were doing nothing. Mr. Ryder first gave the order to "load" and next to "fire." I suppose he gave the order to all the horsemen to load and fire. When Mr. Ryder gave, the word "fire" he was in the centre of the dragoons. I heard no one but Mr. Ryder give directions to fire. Others might have done so, but I did not hear or see them. I knew that the horns were sounding about the tithe businsss. I can't tell how many soldiers were pre sent ; I think over 100, cavalry and foot, were there. On my oath I heard no threats by the people. I did'nt see the infantry fire ; neither did I hear the Riot Act read. I swear that I ciie. not hear the people say that they would resist Mr. Ryder in attempting to distrain for tithes. The Court was adjourned to 11 o'clock on Friday, (to-morrow.) ELECTION MOVEMENTS. DUBLIN' COUNTY.—Mr. Thomas White and Mr. Hamilton threaten to take the field against Messrs. Evans and Fitzsimon. LINCOLNSHIRE—LINDSAY DIVISION.—The present represen tatives will not meet with any opposition.—Against the patriotic Baronet, Sir William Ingilby, every effort to procure a Conservative candidate has been used, but the tremendous overthrow experienced by Sir Robert Sheffield in 1832 has cooled the ardour of the Tories. LINCOLNSHIRE—KESTEVEN AND HOLLAND DIVISION.-The present representatives will not be opposed. LINCOLN, CITY.--Mr. Buiwer, the present talented represen tative, is secure. Mr. Heneage has retired. Colonel Sibthorpe has, in consequence, offered his services, and being supported by the clergy and the Tories, who are very powerful, there seemed to be a probability of his succeeding ; but the Hon. Captain Phipps, brother to the Earl of Mulgrave, has offered himself, and, we are persuaded, with a certainty of succeeding—powerful as is the gal lant Colonel's influence. LEEDS.—A public meeting was last called of the electors of the borough of Leeds, which, after an expression of deep regret on ac count of therCtirement of Mr. John Marshall, from ill health, una nimously joined*.in one loud and earnest call upon Mr. Baines to continue his services as the Representative of the borough of Leeds in Parliament. Mr. Baines's return is perfectly secure. Mr. Wailes' intentions are not yet known.—Leeds Mercury. MAIDSTONE.—Abraham Robarts, Esq., and C. I. Barnett, Esq. (godson of Charles James Fox, and son of James Barnett, the banker, who sustained many a good fight in the cause of liberty, whilst he represented in Parliament the city of Rochester), are both secure in their return for Maidstone, where their services during the progress of the Reform Bill have been justly appreciated. The opposition of Mr. Wyndham Lewis is deemed weak and impotent. RUTLAND will not be disturbed. RoscoancoN.—The return of O'Connor Don and Mr. Fitzste phen French for Roscommon is perfectly secure. TIPPERARY.-Mr. Shiel, and Mr. Otway Cave, who has ad dressed the electors, will certainly be returned for this county. WARWICKSHIRE (NORTHERN DlvisioN).--We understand that several influential Reformers in this division are concerting mea sures for securing the return of Dempster Heming, Esq., in th e expected event of a new election. It is intended, we hear, to get a requisition extensive;; signed, inviting him to contest the field with the Tory, Dugdale. In case proper measures are adopted, there can be no doubt that ize will be returned by a large majority. —Birmingham Journal. WORCESTER .—A new candidate for the city of Worcester has just made his appearance in the person Cf Joseph Bailey, Esq., of Glen Usk Park, near Crickhowel. He sets forth his claims by as sertiog his abomination of the free trade system, is altogether as hearty a Conservative as the most ultra-Tory cat; wish. On Thursday evening a meeting of the friends of Colonel Dav,',es was held at the Bell Inn, Worcester, for the purpose of hearing /Lc.. Gallant Colonel " give an account of his stewardship," which he did to their general satisfaction. WEXFORD. — In the town, we are delighted to state that the re election of Mr. Walker is secure. The county is addressed by Mr. John Maher, a gentleman of fine fortune, and of most patriotic principles. Our accounts from Wexford leave no doubt of Mr. Maher's return. —Freeman's Journal. YORKSHIRE, WEST RIDING.—LEEDS, DEC. 27.—Up to this day there has been no public demonstration on the part of the Tories, of an intention to contest with Lord Morpeth and Sir George Nrickland, the present members for the West Riding, the future representation of this populous division of the county of York. But to-day it has been ascertained that private meetings of the West Riding Tories have been held, and that yesterday, at a meeting held at Scarborough's Hotel in this town, it was resolved to invite the Hon. Edwin Lascelles, son of the Earl of Harewood, to become a candidate in the Tory interest for the Riding. It is understood that Mr. Lascelles promised to come forward, in case it shall appear, at a meeting of the party to be held at Wakefield, that they are determined to support him, and feel hopes of success. In consequence of this reply, dispatches have been sent off to-day to the leading Tories in various parts of the Riding, and it is probable the party will meet at Wakefield on Monday to decide whether they shall bring out their candidate or not. In regard to the issue of a contest, there can be no doubt of the triumph of the Reform candi dates. The clothiers of the West Riding are hearty and staunch Reformers, and by their energy, principally Lord Milton (now Earl Fitzwilliam), secured his election at the great contest for Yorkshire in 1807 against Mr. Lascelles, (now the Earl of Hare wood). Since that time the number of freeholders and the spirit of Reform have greatly increased. Lord Morpeth and Sir George Strickland will commence their canvassing tour on Tuesday next, by visiting the Leeds cloth halls, and addressing the inhabitants of this borough and the clothiers of the district. The Duchess of Bedford and Lady Georeiana Russell, who have lately arrived from the north, joined the party assembled at Woburn Abbey on Christmas-day. Great and extraordinary is the display of princely hospitality at Lowther Castle, Whitehaven , and Cottesmere. TILE NATURALISTS ANNIJAL.—So great was the demand for this work (containing that admirable companio n for the young " The Book of the Seasons," by William and Mary Howitt, illustrated with twelve beautiful embellishments, price only 9s. 6d.) that the whole impression was disposed of on the first day of publication. A new edition is, however, in preparation, and will be published immediately. MEANING REVERSED.--The following sentence in the letter of Mr. Mark Phillipps, the Under Secretary of State, to Lord Durham, appears to express a meaning just the ,Yeverse of what it intends :—" There has been, on the present occ:ksion, such an unusually great number of addresses, the business of answering them has been extremely heavy, and on this accouat has proceeded more slowly than usual," which lite rally means that the more work they have at the Home Office, the less they do. A RAVEN'S AND A ROBIN'S NEST IN DECEMBER. —lt is a proof of the mildness of the season, that a raven's nest was discovered, on the 17th inst., on the cliff of a high rock, by the shepherd on the farm of Auchleskine, Balquhid der, Perthshire. Two of the young ravens were killed in the nest by a shot which had been fired at it, and the other two were taken alive out of the nest, one of which has since died. They were nearly as well feathered as the parent birds, and would have taken flight in the course of a few days. A raven's nest was destroyed in the same rock, in the month of Apiil last, and it is conjectured that this was a second hatch. A robin's nest was found at the same time at the above, and it also had four young ones in it. The nest was discoiTred in a hay stack, on a farm in Glenbuckie, Balquhidder. These are extraordinary circumstances, and have seldom, if ever, been seen in that quarter at this season of the year, when the chill breezes of December used to blow with severity along the Grampian mountains.—.

HEINE, BROTHERS, Contractors, for the Great Lottery, published and drawn by authority and under guarantee of the Hamburg Government, beg to inform the public, that the 65th Lottery of 10,000 Tickets will be drawn on the 18th of March next ; and Tickets are now selling at 108 marks banco, or Si. The prizes are lof 100,000, lof 50,000, lof 30,000, I of 20,000, 1 of 10,000, 2 of 5,000, 4 of 3,000, 7 of 2,000, 20 of 1,000, 40 of 500, and 1,500 of 108 marks, which 1,578 money prizes are altogether stated in marks banco, and payable without any deduction whatever; 4,000 tickets being delivered gratis to the holders of the 2,000 first-drawn tickets, as per scheme; those purchasing one ticket, at the trifling cost of Si., may obtain three prizes : and thus, if fortune prove favourable, gain 180,000 marks banco, at the present exchange, equal to 13,000/. sterling. Owing to the gratis tickets, the number of tickets on sale is a very limited one, so that, of course, they will be cleared off very ra pidly, and a rise in price occur very soon. Those desirous to pur chase at the present first price of 81., are requested to direct, by one of the first mails, but only for whole tickets, to the above named contractors, Heine, Brothers, in Hamburg. Those remitting a 10/. note will receive an order for the balance of 21., together with the ticket, by return of mail; on the ether hand, those preferring to pay Heine Brothers' draft for the cost, are recommended to pay such draft immediately when presented. A full scheme, and every desirable information, being always sent with the tickets, those giving orders will only have to write a line, ordering the ticket or tickets, adding the money, or an order for the same, or stating the mode of payment that may be more convenient to the orderer, and giving their full and plain directions, to secure the safe receipt of the communications. Those honouring Heine, Brothers, by purchasing, may depend on the strictest secresy, as to their taking a chance or getting a prize ; such being the undeviating rule of the uld-established and most lucky Office. 8, New Burlington-street, Dec. 27, 1834.

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1834. that the Reform Act is now as integral a part of con stitutional law as Magna Charta itself; by this decla ration they tacitly acknowledge that as by the voice of *the people it was acquired, in despite of Tory opposi tion, so Reform is the nation's desire, and its principles their rule of action. The Tory Peers were com pelled to forsake their duty, that the Reform Bill should pass the Upper House ; they durst not maintain, what as good and honest senators no earthly power, not even threatened annihilation, should have prevented them maintaining, their opposition ; they abandoned their seats, and allowed the supposed pollution which they had the power to prevent. And now, we have in office some of those very men whom compulsion forced into a sin of omission, deluding themselves with the belief that they can, under any circumstances, be acceptable to the great majority of the people. Their repugnance to that measure was founded upon just and sincere grounds—we have their own words for believing it ; can it, then, by any stretch of the wildest imagination, be conceived that if official power be conceded to them, they will not deem themselves morally bound to coun • teract, by every imaginable means, the influences of a measure they must necessarily consider pernicious ? We exhort the people to be as energetic in their re sistance of Tory domination as the Tories are to main tail' it. A Tory victory now would only be provocative of a series of angry collisions that must necessarily occur in times to come—an endless strife tha‘will continue to agitate and disturb the tranquillity of the country, until that rapacious faction be wholly deposed. A signal defeat in the elections to ensue would be their death blow ; for mercy and for justice' sake may it be their's. The Tories, to be vanquished, must be met with stern and unrelenting courage ; to be beaten with any good effect, no leniency must be shown—they must be put thoroughly hors de combat. The consequence of any generous or weak-minded pity—of any act of conciliation —are visible enough in the gratitude of Tories to Whig kind-heartedness ; never more surely did the viper sting the bosom that warmed it back to life, than Tories will abuse the clemency that may be granted to them. As they hate so will they resist Reform, and as they despise, so will they trample upon Reformers—if they can. The approaching battle to be decisive, must be one of extermination. Men of England, if you do not now crush the Tories, the Tories will crush you, as surely as there is a Sun in Heaven I A Conservative Meeting was held yesterday at the City of London Tavern, for the purpose of promoting the return of Messrs. WARD, WILSON, and LYALL. The speeches delivered at this Meeting were worthy of the occasion, especially Mr. WARD'S, who seemed to ground his claims to the confidence of his consti tuency, on the fact of his having " opposed the Roman Catholic Relief Bill, and other measures of the WEL LINGTON Administration." And yet this very Admi nistration which was too liberal for the worthy candi date in 1829, he discovers to be all that it should be in 1834, notwithstanding that its professions of libe rality are far more comprehensive than when he op posed it, from a groundless apprehension that it was becoming too enlightened ! Possibly, however, Mr. WARD calculates on its falling back—whatever it may profess to the contrary—on its old favou rite system of intolerance ; and truly, if such be his expectation, we think he stands a very fair chance of seeing it realized. At any rate, there is nothing in Sir ROBERT PEEL'S manifesto that need occasion him any uneasiness. All there is as cheering to the cause of Toryism, as the .most inve terate Tory could desire. Intolerance blazes out in every line of it, while Reform is seen only through a dusky twilight. Even Lord STORMONT is satisfied with this juggling production I What cause then can Mr. WARD have for apprehension ? Yet he is evi dently desponding, and makes as many wry faces at the Reform Bill, as a school-boy makes at a dose of physic. "No Government," he observed, " could be so strong as it used to be before the passing of the -Reform Bill. That measure prevents it." Not so, Mr. WARD. That measure so far from preventing, lends strength to an enlightened Administration. It embarrasses only an intolerant one. There is nothing in the speeches of either of the other candidates that calls for the slightest comment. Mr. WILSON'S was the perfection . of twaddle ; and Mr. LYA Les was an ambitious attempt to equal it. It must be truly gratifying to the Reformers of the United Kingdom, to witness the noble efforts that are being made by their friends in every district of the Metropolis, to set them the example of delivering the country out of the deadly grasp of Toryism. In the heart of the City, in Marylebone, in Finsbury, in Southwark, and in every part of Middlesex, the Re formers are at their posts, resolved to strain every nerve, and to make every sacrifice in defence of the rights, liberties, and privileges of themselves and their fellow -countrymen, which can only be preserved by ousting the old Corruptionists, who first robbed, and afterwards enslaved, the British Empire. Among the people of all classes in the metropolis who derive no gain from the mal-administration of justice, who have no personal interest in the corruption and extravagance of a Government, and who have no secret desire to sell their country for a pension or a riband— there is an universal determination never to entrust the Government of England, to persons who would have a Parliament composed of the representatives of old ditches, brakes, and hedges, rather than of the bold and brave Yeomanry of. Great Britain. The adherents of the Tories are tax-eaters, not tax-payers—men who enrich themselves by Government Contracts, and flou rish, like weeds, on the poverty of all around them. But, thank Heaven, the fate of England depends not upon such men. The electors are the real arbiters of the continuance of the Tories in power ; and as far as the metropolis is concerned they are determined to do their dtity manfully, fearlessly, and effectually. At the great meeting of the Middle sex Reformers, held yesterday, at Lieutenant Hall's Ridi ng School, which was attended by the Sheriffs of the County, and at which several gentle men of great influence, including Mr. HUME, attended, it was resolved that the people were constitutionally entitled to Triennial Parliaments, vote by ballot, and household suffrage—a di rect blow at the very root of Toryism. In the borough of SouthWark, the electors have unani mously declared for Mr. D. W. HARVEY, whose ad dress to the people, at a public meeting held there yes terday, was received with acclamation, and will be read with interest in every part of the country. In Finsbury, meetings are daily held, at which resolutions are passed, declaring the people's want of confidence in a Tory Administration. Every thing goes on well, and in the most admirable order. The ex ample of. London is spreading fast throughout the country. In Dublin the Liberal party are com pletely in the ascendant ; in Liverpool, Man chester, and Birmingham, the Tories are unable to make any head against the Whigs ; and North of. the Tweed the Conservatives, are still in a more helpless plight. Let our metropolitan friends only persevere a little longer —we know them too well to doubt their zeal—and they may rely upon it that thay will soon hear the sound of the Conservative retreat from Downing -street. We have received German Papers of the 18th inst., with the Frankfort Mail of the 23d.

The following, from the Courrier Francais, is the only in- telligence worth giving " It seems certain that since the resignation of Marshal Gerard, the King has been negotiating without interruption with Marshal Soult. The Marshal's habits of military disci pline are perfectly adapted to the views of the King respecting the direction of the Cabinet. Marshal Soult is a kind of Major- General of the Council, willingly obliginr , the Master, provided that the Master leaves to him the command of the others. Once more, this is what the King wants to complete the constitutional fiction as he understands it. A president of the civil order will never suit his Majesty Louis Philippe. These men have two enor mous political defects ; they understand government too well, and do not sufficiently understvid obedience. It must not, however, be supposed that Marsnal Soult makes ne condition. On the contrary, perceiving how necessary he is to the King, he requires that about half of the Council shall be changed. What is curious is, that M. Thiers takes part with the Mar shal. The treaty is signed at the expense of M. Guizot and the Doctrinaires. M. Guizot knows this, and hence the despondency which has been observed in him for some days past." 141 It I.lollr . 4 \*. Zbie LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 30. 1834. DISSOLUTION PAR,LII MENT.

With a patience, whose only reward will be th'e con sciousness of good intention, we have waded through the Tory Directory for 1834-5, published as an ad vertisement in the Blackfriars broadsheet of yesterday morning. Whilst to the loyalists that , : list cannot fail to be a source of exceeding gre.: .ich r good may it do them,) it promises to pro _. acquisition to the commercial interests of the WI:Ad i❑ general, and our native provinces in particular. In this famous advertisement, (which it is melancholy to think brings not two mortal shillings to the Exchequer in the shape of duly,) all men will now have before their eyes a summary view of the whole of the wealth, influence, and character in the City of London—the accuracy of the information cannot be doubted, for have we not the authority of the subscribing parties for saying so ? Every name therein appearing is, a name of wealth, character, and influence ; the party to whom it pertains hath said it, and he voucheth for the fact by the signature of his own right hand ! The asser tion is conclusive to the end of time I Very many of the persons whose names swell the goodly muster-roll it is our fortune to know ; some, it has been our misfortune to have heard of ; a very large bulk we have heard or known no more about than about the men who people the planet Saturn. Our ignorance, however, cannot justify doubt—that they are to a man the most affluent and influential body among the citizens of London, may not hereafter be suspected. Two mighty advantages in a commercial point of view are attained by the publication of this list ; no references, (involving trouble, difficulty, and loss of time,) as to the respectability, credit, or "goodness" of trading citizens are now required ; a House has only to refer to the " Tory Directory of civic wealth, influ ence, and character," (the names will, of course, be ,alphabetically arranged and published in a cheap form as a counting-house companion to the almanac,) and it sees at a glance whether an " order" is to be sent home to the buyer, or sent back to stock again. That is one of the benefits, and a prodigiously excellent one it is. The second is scarcely less, for the names ap pearing in the other Directories—Pigott's or the Post office—not having place in this, have only to be aste risk'd off, and lo ! all the property-less and character less people in London will stand forth in naked display before the world. What a capital contrivance I Leave the Tories alone for achieving marvels for the good of mankind The estimated importance of a battle may be inferred from the preparations of an enemy. The Tories, who, a week or two ago, attempted to sneer down the " great crisis," are now themselves seriously alive to its exist ence, and actually dole out their solemn exhortationi by the very strength and momentousness of its name. We have not acted the part of mean disputants, suppressing or contorting the proceedings of our ad versaries ; fairly and honourably have we made our columns the vehicle for presenting them, as they them selves desired they should appear in their own journals. As nothing has been extenuated, so, moreover, nothing has been set down in malice : they have been repre sented in the aspect they deemed most appropriate for their own purposes : they have painted themselves in colours of their own choosing, and we have transferred the picture, undefaced by any false tinting of a spite ful opponent. It is from these proceedings that we behold the desperate energy which signalizes the present grew Tory struggle, and from them we can but coiled hat the struggle is less for patriotism than for party power. The spirit that, to a man, animates the faction is furious to the last extremity of violence ; not the calm determination of a wise and righteous judgment, but the extravagance of pas sion. In their speeches are heard the wild declamations of zealotism, the bigotry of right-or-wrong partizanship. They talk not of the people, but of their party. It is with them but the question of Duke or no Duke, Tories or no Tories. The people think not so much of men as of their country ; they name not this man or that man ; their only battle-cry is Constitutional Reform. They have_no. political puppet to plant in the niche of., a displaced Duke. They care for no name, they have • no idol ; give them but those from whose known prin ciples they can deduce a safe moral assurance of good intentions, and for this name or that name they have small regard. They do not indeed think that al mule is most likely to be obedient to a rider's will, and thence they infer that the Tories are not the most likely to obey the reins of Reform. But the Tory cry is for the perpetuation of re-usurped power for Tory ends, and not for the people's happiness. Recur to all or any one of their great Conservative meetings, and what a spectacle of raving hatred to the people is presented. Mark their " deafening and long continued cheerings"_not at the convincing arguments of wisdom in the support of truth, but at the mention of a name : a whisper of the. Duke or the Queen, and they are ready to crack their throats with nine-times nine, and the Eldonian envoy of one cheer more. Note well the disgusting display of " Reverend" attenders, who forgetful of the quiet of their own souls, and the heavenly-mindedness of their flocks, take per sonal part in these matters " of the earth, earthy." What has the man of GOD to do with the list of worldly ambition, but to denounce it ? Sir ROBERT PEEL truly observed, that the people were sick of agitation—they are, but who are the agitators? Who now are shaking society to its centre but the Tories, of whom he is the nominal head, to re-attain place and p3wer ?

The Commercial Travellers' Society held their annual meeting on Saturday last at the London Coffee-house, Ludgate Hill, the Right Honourable the Lord Mayor in the chair. After dinner the health of his Majesty was given, and received with the respect due to the Sovereign. Some of the party clapped their hands. The Queen's health followed, and the same parties attempted to show their sense of the line of conduct which her Majesty is understood to have pursued, on a late important occasion, by a repetition of the clapping. This produced some hissing, and a scene of mingled clapping and hissing ensued, which ended in the triumph of the hissers over their opponents, the latter being effectually silenced. During the uproar the Lord Mayor got up and attempted to restore order, by stating that it was not a political meeting, and entreating those who accompanied him to desist from ex pressing their political feelings. His Lordship, however, had a toast which he would have been glad to give, could he have calculated upon its cordial reception. That toast was " His Majesty's Ministers." His courage failed him. It was omitted for the first time these thirty-four years I PRIVY COUNCIL-(THIS DAY.) The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council at to-day at the Council Chamber, Whitehall.

No ship letters have arrived. The express from Paris brings the official despatch of General Cordova, in which he confirms the defeat of the Carlists, and their retreating in great confusion, throwing away their muskets. It also appears that General Mina has again returned to Pampeluna, and that General Cordova and Oraa, with their divisions, have also retired to a short distance of Pampeluna. A report prevailedatPa;i7s of the death of the King of Prussia. At Tortoni's the French 3 Per Cents. were done at 76 30, on Sunday, which is 15 cents. lower than the previous day.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT. ) The Evening Packet, generally the best informed Tal paper printed in Dublin, states that a stipendiary Magist rate has been appointed to the district of the Fews Mountain! county Armagh, and that a suggestion has been made!' the Lords Justices to place that part of the country under tn,e Coercion Act, ina smuc h as t h e P rotestant c l ergy canno t I' lect their tithes ther e 1 I t was a pr i nc i pa l o bj ect i on ur ged . / the opponents of that unconsitutional measure, that it was j°' troduced not so much to repress predial disturbance as to fay' litate tho collection of tithes, an o bj ect w hi c h t h e me mbers ° the then Government .earnestly disclaimed. HI mistake rot a clause was brought into the Bill to allay those a ppreha t i sions, by prohibiting the extension o f th e extraordinary an frightful powers which it confers to any place, merely on i aC : count of tithe or anti-tithe agitation.
