DUBLIN. (PROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) Some politicians of the party now ascendant talk with gravity of a repeal of the Irish Reform Bill, and such a modification of the Catholic Relief Bill as shall reduce it to a nullity. These aspirations are by no means confined to breasts secured by strait-waistcoats, but are acknowledged and entertained amongst persons of sanity and experience, who would think themselves insulted should you ask them to prevent the corn sown in spring from germinating in summer, or bringing forth its increase in due season. In reality it would be quite as rational to propose such a scheme, as to at tempt the backward steps which these silly ones medi tate. Nevertheless they are neither few - nor contempti ble in influence and station who dream of such things. On the contrary the high gentry, the greater part of the clergy, and the small fry of Orangeists concur in pro posing these points as the test of the Duke's Conser vatism, and have some thoughts of exacting pledges to the same effect from their candidates at the general election. Heaven keep them in that demented state till the elections are over, for the good of their country Such notions are infinitely less dangerous to liberty than the mock liberality and moderation professed by the cunninger members of the party. They show, however, what justice may be expected, should the per sons who hold them indeed get the upperhand, an event which still depends upon the will of the people. O'Connell is proceeding with admirable tact and discretion in organising his new Association for the second downfall of the Duke. He has very properly forbidden the banns which Mr. Pat Lalor had pub lished, for a union of counties, to be solemnized on the classic ground of Mullaghmast. In the speech which he made on Tuesday, you will find a detailed account of the case of the late Lord Strangford to which I alluded in my letter of the preceding day. The enemies of Lord Plunkett, who are neither few nor inactive, have circulated a report that he is to retain his place on the Irish Chancery Bench, under the Duke of Wellington. Such a rumour, without con firmation, is incredible, and can be only attributed to malice. Even Lord Londonderry must confess that it is " too bad." Lord Wellesley has been guilty of the presumption of filling up the office of Assistant Barrister to the County of Limerick, which became vacant after the dismissal of the Whig Cabinet. His Excellency was at the time the Chief Governor of Ireland, still per forming the functions, and in full possession of all the privileges of his high office. He had therefore a per fect right to appoint to the vacancy ; and what is more —he would have been guilty of a vile breach of trust had he left the nomination for his successor. It is a judicial post and would have been given to one of the blatant orators of Tims's Society, to the great perver sion of justice and scandal of the whole country. Why should Lord Wellesley tarnish his character by lending passive assistance to any such arrangement ? The Go vernment Organ, the Evening Mail, is in hysterics on account of this disappointment, and splutters most heroically about the indecency of the affair, which it declares must be rescinded. The Oracles on your side of the water will of course hark in with that conclu sion, forgetting, or not choosing to remember (which is equally convenient), the celebrated case of Mr. Bathurst, the Clerk of the Privy Council. But it is " past praying for." Mr. Murphy is the Chairman, and holds his seat by a much more secure tenure than the Duke of Wellington bears the sceptre. Mr. Grogan Morgan, a young man who came un expectedly into the possession of a large fortune, and is now an aristocrat of the County of Wexford, has been long playing fantastic tricks before high Heaven, and the Baronies of Forth and Bargy. His last prank has been to insist on his tenants at will paying the tithe due on their holdings, although he himself is bound by law to pay it ; and a Wexford paper, the Independent, declares that his tenants, on the Monk and Grogan estate beyond the Slaney, " tendered the rent to the very penny, but it would not be taken without the tithe money." I hope, if this be true, that they are prepared with legal proofs of having made the tender ; in which case they will be able to make an open show of their precious landlord. The Wexford lndependent goes on to state that two tenants are believed to have paid the tithes ; and adds, " If they have acted, in this trying emergency, the base part of base renegades, their conduct will not long remain a secret ; and all the cloaks (we use the word significantly) in the universe will not protect them from the just indignation of their neighbours." I quote this passage to mark it with reprobation. It is an atrocious Rockite notice, worse and more wicked than any cruelty of which bad hearted or infatuated landlords have yet been guilty. Such sentiments should be branded by every one connected with the press, as a reproach to our order. But the fact of their being avowed by a journal in most exten sive circulation among the farmers of Wexford, shows what a dangerous feeling exists, even amongst educated people, on the tithe question, and what a madman the Duke of Wellington must be, if he encourages those landlords who are endeavouring further, to provoke it. THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1834. STATE OF PUBLIC OPINION IN THE COUNTRY. POOLE. FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT. ) In my last c told you the Reformers would have a meeting to address the King, whether the Sheriff consented to call it or not. From this you may have collected doubt whether he would follow the example of my Lord Mayor of London. The doubt was realized, and under a pretended plea of "dic tation," the Sheriff refused to convene a meeting. Application was then made to the Mayor for the use of the Guildhall, and although usually obtained without difficulty for almost any pur pose, was in this instance refused. The Reformers conse quently convened a public meeting at a large room in the principal Inn, taking care to give all due publicity. The Tories have been very active in raising the cry of " Church and King," and not content with this, have been industrious in circulating bills addressed to the labouring poor," with a view to raise their indignation against the promoters of the Poor Law Bill. The real intention of the contemptible cabal was however to get a mob at the meeting, but all would not do. The meeting took place this morning, Lieutenant-Colonel Pedlar, a county magistrate and man of fortune, in the chair, supported by men of the highest respectability. The room, capable of holding about 300, was crowded by men almost exclusively electors. A more respectable public meeting was admitted by elderly gentlemen present never to have been held here—but where were the Tories ?—not a man of them would show. Resolutions were passed condemnatory of the conduct of the Corporation, and in favour of an address to his Majesty, approving the principles and measures of the late Adminis tration, and against placing confidence in men of opposite political principles. Many excellent speeches were delivered, to report which at length in the present crowded state of your columns would, I fear, occupy too much space. Suffice it to state, that the feeling was unequivocally and decidedly against giving any support to the Administration of the Duke of Wel lington, the idol and champion of Toryism, the determined defender of every abuse in Church and State, the declared enemy of Reform, the sworn supporter of Toryism; a man whose whole political existence has been a war upon the people (except in the few instances in which justice has been wrung from his reluctant hands), and who, together with the whole of his party, is irredeemably pledged to a treasonable conspiracy against the liberties of mankind. What have the idolators of the Moloch of military despotism contented them selves with doing here ? Have they called a public meeting ? No ! and yet they have sent up an address to the King signed, as they say, by 900 respectable persons. If you will allow me space, I will state a few circumstances as touching the vaunted address. The first intimation of its existence was an anony mous hand-bill, stating that it was lying at the Guildhall (no difficulty in obtaining it for this purpose,) for the signatures of the supporters of the King. Finding, however, a great lack of zeal in the public, blank sheets of paper were supplied and disposed of as follows :—One placed upon the Church vestry table, another in the shop of a loquacious barber, a third to a notorious frequenter of public-houses—another is carried round the town by attornies' clerks—and yet another is en trusted to the special care of two or more Clergymen. Men, women, and children, all who could and would write, were en l;sted, and, in some instances, I am credibly informed, the same individual subscribed the names of four or five persons, some of them so represented being one thousand miles dis tant. Two or three Clergymen so entrusted were seen to stop three carts on the high road, and obtain the signatures of the drivers written at the bottom of the carts—blank sheets of paper, recollect. I could add to the list of enormities such as these ; but I sicken at the recital—and all this in support of the Church I Could the worst enemies of such men have devised or desired any thing which should have covered them with a more loathsome or incurable infamy ? . A. NEWPORT. (From the Monmouthshire Merlin.) It is needless to describe the sensation created in this inde pendent borough by the recent untoward act of his Majesty, in so unceremoniously dismissing his late Ministers, and placing the reins of Government again in the hands of those very per sons whose former illiberal conduct and professions had roused an indignant people to that unprecedented display of strength and unanimity before which intolerance and corruption sus tained so signal a defeat, that many flattered themselves the faction had " fallen, never more to rise." The first announce ment of such an unexpected ministerial revolution was received with manifest incredulity ; nor, till it was reiterated in such terms as showed there was " no mistake," could our reformers believe that the infatuation for place could have so blinded any set of men to the precipices towards which they were has tening—to the impassable gulph between their anti-reform principles aad the ardent, firm, and dearly cherished opinions of the nation. The feelers put forth to ascertain the beat of the public pulse, in vague announcements that " there was reason to believe the Duke of Wellington had become con vinced of the necessity for moderate and safe reforms," were treated with that contempt which such indirect and question able assertions deserve. It was felt that dear-bought expe rience of the immutability of Toryism, and its antipathy to the extension or confirmation of popular rights and liberty, were matters too frequently and fatally confirmed to be made obli vious by second-hand protestations of liberality, which could be disavowed or qualified with even more facility than the apostacy of papers in which they have been inserted. A requi sition was accordingly presented to John Owen, Esq., Mayor, signed by a laige number of the most respectable inhabitants of this borough, requesting him to convene a public meeting as early as possible, for the purpose of taking into cons Aer ation the propriety of addressino•. his Majesty on the present state of public affairs ; and that gentleman, with his usual promptness, fixed on the following evening, at the Westgate Inn. The attendance was both numerous and respectable. After some very able speeches, the following address to his Majesty was proposed and carried unanimously : arrest this march of improvement, and that your Majesty ivill admit only to your Conncils such statesmen as possess the confidence of the nation, and will carry forward a gradual but effectual Reform of the Institutions of our country." " Signed in name and by appointment of the Council." The address being read, Bailie THOMSON moved that the same be adopted, and as soon as it was extended and signed, forwarded to Lord Brougham for presentation. Bailie SHEPPERD seconded the motion. Mr. MACTAVISH opposed it as uncalled-for, unconstitutional, and a direct interference with the King in the exercise of his prerogative. Nothing should be done to embarrass the Duke of Wellington in his high and responsible duty. His Grace had incurred a personal risk and responsibility which no other man would have undertaken. Mr. Thomson had said that he did not dispute his Majesty's right to select his advisers, but the people had no right to dictate to his Majesty who those advisers should be. It was their duty to impeach his Majesty's advisers, if they did wrong ; this right the British Constitu tion recognises ; but not to interfere with the King in the discharge of his undoubted prerogative. But there is also a threat contained in the address. It speaks of " weighty in dividual responsibility." It does not tell his Majesty how it will affect his fame with future times, but it threatens him with the fear of personal danger. Mr. Mactavish said it was his opinion that Lord Brougham would not venture to present the address to his Majesty, and concluded by moving an amend ment embodying the above sentiments. Mr. STALKER seconded the amendment. He conceived the address involved a principle which he could not recognise, namely, an interference with the due exercise of the Royal prerogative. He had heard much of freedom of acting and thinking, and no person was more friendly to such freedom than himself ; but are we to deny his Majesty the same right we claim for his subjects ? When he considered the high ta lents and judgment of Sir Robert Peel, and considered him as the purifier of the criminal law ; when he associated the Duke of Wellington with Catholic emancipation—he might say the emancipation of Europe—he could not deem them unfit to con duct the affairs of the country. Mr. CAMPBELL ROSE (in reply to Mr. Mactavish) read an extract from the Globe, showing that the Administration was still unformed, and depended on the countless chances that might befall Sir Robert Peel in travelling from Italy. The vote being taken on the amendment, it was negatived by 14 to 4. . . . - Mr. DENOON said the address was of an unconstitutional na ture, and not in accordance with the opinions of the consti tuency. He moved that the following be adopted in its stead : " UNTO THE KING'S MOST GRACIOUS MAJESTY, " May it please your Majesty,—We, your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects, the Magistrates and Town Council of the Royal Burgh of Inverness, beg leave, most humbly to convey to your Majesty the assurance of our devoted attach ment to your Majesty's person, and of our unfeigned desire to protect the just prerogative of the Crown, as well as the true rights of the people. " That heving learned that your Majesty has deemed it fit to call for new advisers to your Royal Councils, we are pre pared, as dutiful and loyal subjects, to acknowledge, in the ex ecution of that purpose, the undoubted right of your Majesty's just, and constitutional prerogative.—And while we would humbly express our confidence in your Majesty's desire to pro vide for your people, the blessings of paternal and judicious Government, we would beg to add our earnest hope, that your Majesty may not be thwarted or embarrassed in the ac complishment of that high object, tnd our fervent prayer, that the King's Throne, may be surrounded by wise and faithful Councillors, who will fear God, honour the King, and have ever at heart the true interests of the people.—Signed in the name, &c." Mr. RENNIE seconded the motion of Mr. Denoon. He considered the other address as unfit to be presented to the King. Respecting the dismissal of the late Ministry, (as it was termed in the address) how was it known that the King had dismissed the Ministry ? He had read in a paper that Lord Melbourne informed his Majesty he could not face the next Session of Parliament with the then Administration. What could his Majesty do but apply to statesmen who could face parliament, and who so natural to apply to as those his Majesty found in office when he ascended the throne ? Mr. Rennie also announced the alleged violation of the rule of the Council, to which Mr. Mactavish alluded. Bailie SHEPPERD denied that any expression in the address could be fairly construed into anything like a threat ; after which Mr. Denoon's address was negatived by fourteen to four. Mr. MAC'PAVISH complained of the address going forth as the address of the Town Council, it being only the address of a majority of the Council, and moved that it should bear to be the address of the undersigned Magistrates and Councillors.' Dr. FORBES having entered the Council said he appyoved of the Address, with the alteration suggested in the amendment. The vote being taken, 4 were in favour of the amendment and 15 against it. The original motion by Mr. Thompson was then put to the vote, and the address adopted by 15 to 4. The dissentient Cooncillors intimated their intention of protesting against the proceedings. BURGH OF DINGWALL. UNTO THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY, The Humble Address of the Provost, Magistrates, and Council of the Royal Burgh of Dingwall. " May it please your Majesty,—We, the Provost, Magis trates, and Council, of the Royal Burgh of Dingwall, presume to approach your Majesty with the expression of our loyal, du tiful, and most sincere attachment to your Majesty's person, anti of our heartfelt gratitude fctr - the - rnany benefits-which we, and all your Majesty's subjects, have received from your Ma jesty as a common Father. " In those benefits we recognize your Majesty's anxious care for the welfare of your people, for their enjoyment of their le gitimate rights, in peace at home, and for their preservation from the manifold evils of war abroad. " For these blessings we were, in the first place, indebted under Providence, to your Majesty, and in the next to the Ministers, of whose enlightened Councils your Majesty had given your people such signal marks of approval. Judging from the ameliorations actually effected by them, under your Majesty's liberal and paternal sanction, and relying on the de clared intentions of your late advisers, steadily to proceed in the reformation of all recognized abuses, w e con fid ent l y anti cipated, that the prosperity of the country would be firmly established, and that contentment among ourselves, and a solid and honourable peace with all other nations would re main unshaken. W e , therefore, deplore, that your Majesty has deemed it necessary, in the exercise of your Majesty's most undoubted prerogative, to dispense with the services of those who were pledged to measures having these great ends in view ; but we humbly beseech your Majesty, with that love for your people which assented to the great measure of Reform al ready accomplished, to ensure to them the enjoyment of its legitimate effects, whereby your Majesty's Throne will be rendered as stable as your empire is great, and your claims on the warm and devoted loyalty of your subjects, are im perishable. " That your Majesty may be long preserved the Ruler of a free, a happy, and a faithful people, is our most fervent prayer. si g ned, and sealed, with the common seal of the Royal Burgh of Dingwall, in our presence, and by our ap pointment this twenty-fifth day of November, 1834." TAVISTOCK. (From the Devonport Telegraph of Saturday.) On Monday last a meeting of the electors of this borough, pursuant to a numerously signed requisition, was held in the Market-house, for the purpose of adopting a requisition to Lord J. Russell and Sir Francis Knowles, Bart., to become the representatives of the borough in the event of a dissolution of Parliament. G. Cudlipp , Esq., was unanimously called upon to preside, and having opened the meeting by reading the re quisition, Mr. FLAMANK came forward and stated that unfortunately Sir Francis Knowles, whose presence they had anticipated, was prevented from being there, but, instead, had sent a letter expressive of his regret, which, with the consent of the meet ing he would read. Mr. F. then read the letter. J. RUNDLE, Esq., banker, then read the following from Lord John Russell : " Holland House, Nov. 20, 1834. " Dear Sir,—l have long intended writing to you on a sub ject which will not admit of further delay. On the occasion of the last election for the borough of Tavistock, you told me that you thought the electors would be likely to attend to my recommendation in the choice of a representative. I accord ingly proposed Colonel Fox, who was elected ; I felt much gratified by the honour thus done me, which I considered as an acknowledgment of the part I had in forming and carrying the Reform Act. But after that single election I shall not consider you or any other person in the least bound to attend to my wishes, respecting a second Member for Tavistock, and hope there may be always found one of our family deserving the confidence of the electors, and that unless he deserves it he will not ask it. " Your faithful servant, "J. RUSSELL. Mr. CARPENTER then said, that the public avowal of his sentiments was the last thing from which he would shrink. He bad never solicited their support. The gentlemen who had signed the requisition had done it upon the principle that no pledges should be given ; he therefore felt bound, before he expressed his opinions, to relieve them from their pledges. He then stated that be was favourable to the ballot, that though he was opposed to the further extension of the elective franchise, yet he should wish to see those per-. sons who now enjoyed it protected in its exercise,—but he must beg leave to decline being put in nomination for the representation of the Borough of Tavistock. After some further observations from Mr. Flamank, Mr. Bridgman, Mr. Harness, Mi. Rundle, Mr. Phillips, Mr. Willesford, &c. the motion was put and carried with acclamation. A vote of thanks was then given to the Chairman, and the meeting separated with three times three, for Lord J. Russell and J. Carpenter, Esq. The requisition above alluded to was immediately pre pared and numerously signed by all parties. IRELAND. —DUBLIN, SATURDAY, Nor. 29. (FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.) IRISH ANTI-TORY ASSOCIATION. This Society held its fifth meeting this day at the Corn Exchange Rooms—Sir Francis Mac Donnell in the Chair. Upwards of an hour was occupied in the admission of mem bers ; when the Rev. Mr. Bouge, P. P., and member of the Monaghan Club, addressed the meeting, in a speech of much eloquence and point, in the course of which he said the inde pendent interest was strong enough to return Messrs. Perrin and Westenra, provided the Rossmore family joined the people, and identified their interest with Sergeant Perrin. Mr. O'CoNNELL pronounced a high eulogium on Sergeant Perrin, and said it would not do for the Westenras to hoist the Orange flag in Monaghan, and the green one in the King's County. If they adopted this plan, they would be ejected from both counties.—( Hear, hear.) Mr. O'CoxNaLL said he rose for the purpose of reporting from the Election Committee. The first part of is report related to a principle which the Committee were unanimous in recommending, namely, the pledges to be taken by candidates at the coming election. The first pledge which should be required of candidates is, that they should vote for the total abolition and extinction of tithes. This is the entire question upon which the Administration hinges. The question, then, at the ensuing election should be—Tithes or No Tithes. Let that be the watchword from Connemara to Cape Clear.— ( Hear, hear.) He perceived a great deal of good news in the packet which had just come over. The Corpo.•ation of London had voted that the Duke of Wellington was not fit to be Prime Minister.—( Cheers.) After this manifestation of feeling in England, it was quite impossible that the Iron Duke could come into, or at least maintain himself in, power. With respect to the report, he should commence with Kilkenny. This county was, lit was happy to say, safe ; and if Mr. Sullivan did not stand for the city, Colonel Butler's eldest son would offer himself to the electors, and there could be no doubt of his success. The next county was Wicklow. This county, he regretted to say, was in danger. The parties were nearly balanced, and the Fitzwilliam interest could turn the scale either one way or the other. If, therefore, Lord Mil town is true to his party, and prevails on Mr. Challoner, his agent, to act honestly, the return of Mr. Howard, and the eldest son of Henry Grattan, is safe. In the county of Dub lin the success of his son-in-law, Mr. Fitzsimons, was beyond all doubt, and unless Lord Brabazon came in to divide the county, Mr. George Evans would also be again returned. If Lord Brabazon was guilty of such a course at this period, he would forfeit for ever all claim to the representation of the county of Dublin at any futdre period. In the city of Dublin he believed his own re. election was secure. He understood the Conservatives would not oppose him, but they were deter mined to make a run at his colleague, Mr. Ruthven, who was certainly better entitled to be called the member for all Ireland than himself ; for when most members, worn out by fatigue, had retired to their beds, Mr. Ruthven was always to be found at his post, counting out the House, when the number was below forty ; he would therefore take his stand with his Hon. Colleague at the next election, and both their interests should be identified.—( Cheers.) He had now con cluded this day's report, and should move that they should report progress, and be allowed to sit again. The Learned Gentleman also moved that the Roman Catholic clergy of Ire land all be honorary members of the Association. Mr. MARCUS COSTELLO expressed his entire approbation of the course pursued by Mr. O'Connell at this eventful crisis, and promised to render all the assistance in his power to aid in ousting the Iron Duke from power. Thanks were then voted to Sir F. MacDonnel, and the Asso ciation adjourned to Tuesday. John De Beauvoir, Colonel Vyse, Sir John Pechell, Sir John Walsh, and Sir John Phillimore. Out of the list, the two first named are alone, we think, likely to start. Sir John Pechell, one of our present members, has, we understand, declared off; of Colonel Vyse's intentions we know nothing, and have heard nothing ; and as for the two latter gentlemen, their names ap pear to be introduced for the sole purpose of completing this catalogue of " Sir Johns."— Windsor Express. WHITBY.—The dismissal of Lord Melbourne's Administra tion, rendering an immediate dissolution of Parliament highly probable, will bring forward a new candidate on the liberal in terest for the representation of the borough of Whitby. On Friday last, Captain the Hon. C. B. Phipps, brother to the Earl of Mulgrave, announced to the electors of Whitby his intention to offer himself as a candidate at the ensuing elec tion ; and he has since canvassed the borough with the most flattering prospects of success. On Saturday, Captain Phipps addressed a numerous and respectable assemblage of the electors and inhabitants of Whitby, from a temporary hustings erected in front of the house of Mr. William Morley, a staunch and well-known friend of reform. Captain Phipps, attended by a numerous body of his friends, was introduced to the meeting by Richard Moorsom, Esq., who recommended him to the choice of the electors as a zealous advocate for the fullest extension of civil and religious liberty, as one.who la boured effectually to promote the emancipation of the slaves, and above all, as the uncompromising champion of reform, and of all those improvements which it is the necessary tendency of the Reform Bill to produce. Captain Phipps then addressed the meeting in a manly, energetic, and excellent speech, which, both by its substance, and the manner of its delivery, has made a most decided impression in his favour. YORK CITY.—In answer to an application made by some of the electors, letters have been received from Mr. Petre and Mr. Dundas, the present members for the city. Mr. Petre declares his adherence to the opinion upon which he has heretofore acted, and his determination again to offer him self to the electors, in the event of a dissolution. Mr. Dundas also declares his political sentiments unchanged, but says, that it would be premature to offer himself as a candidate, while the question of a dissolution is unsettled. It is understood that Mr. Lowther will again offer himself on the Tory interest, in which ease a sharp contest may be anticipated, the reformers being determined not to yield an inch of ground to the Tories. " TO THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. " May it please your Majesty,—We ' your Majesty's d ut if u l and loyal subjects, the inhabitants of Newport, in the county of Monmouth, in public meeting assembled, at which his Worship the Mayor presided, humbly approach your Majesty, to express our apprehension and alarm at the information we have received, that your Majesty has been pleased to call to your councils men in whom the people of this country have no confidence, who have ever been the supporters of measures which we, in common with a vast majority of the subjects of your Majesty, deem prejudicial to the interests, and destruc tive of the prosperity, of the empire. " We, therefore, while bowing with all submission to your Majesty's just and undoubted prerogative of choosing and dis missing your Ministers, humbly represent to your Majesty our profound conviction, that the dawning prosperity of these realms will be overcast, the public tranquillity endangered, and deep and general dissatisfaetion among all classes of your Majesty's loyal subjects, will be produced, if the persons to whom the Administration is now entrusted, be suffered to direct the affairs of the empire. " We, therefore, humbly pray your Majesty to entrust the Government only to those in whom the country can confide, as persons who will carry out the expected beneficial results of the Reform Bill, and effectually redress all acknowledged abuses of Church and State." BER WICK. During the week a requisition to the Mayor has been nu merously signed, requesting him to call a meeting of the in habitants of the parliamentary borough, in order to address his Majesty at the present alarming crisis. The requisition, we believe, was to be presented this afternoon, and it is likely therefore that the meeting will be held early in the week.—. Berwick Advertiser, Saturday. INVERNESS. (Front the Inverness Courier, of Wednesday.) SPECIAL MEETING OF THE TOWN COUNCIL. A special meeting of the Town Council was held here yes terday, for the purpose of taking into consideration the pro priety of addressing his Majesty at the present eventful crisis. The subject had been introduced at the usual meeting of the Council on the previous day by Mr. Campbell Rose, when it was opposed by Mr. Rennie, Mr. Mactavish, and Mr. Stalker, on the ground that agreeably to a resolution of the Council, it could not be taken up without notice of the motion having been given eight days before it was discussed. On the other hand, it was maintained, that addresses to the King or to Parliament were exceptions to the usual business of the Council, and did not fall under this rule ;—that Edinburgh, Leith, Glasgow, Aberdeen, and various other towns had already moved ;—and that no time was to be lost in manifesting the feeling of the Council on this momentous subject. The vote being taken, thirteen were in favour of a meeting next day, and three against it. Two of the Councillors had left the room, and one ( Dr. Forbes) declined to vote. Bailie TuomsoN, as Convener of the Committee appointed for framing an address, said he should read to the meeting a draft of the proposed address to his Majesty. He hoped it would be approved of by the Council; it was necessarily of a general nature, for in the imperfect degree of information they possessed, they could not be definite. It was his Majesty's undoubted prerogative to dismiss his Ministers at his pleasure, but it was also the bounden duty of every loyal subject to come forward at the present crisis and express his sentiments. This was the more necessary as the change in the Government was said to be the spontaneous act of his Majesty's own mind. Mr. Thomson then read the following address : " To TIIE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY, " May it please your Majesty—We, your Majesty's loyal and dutiful subjects, the Magistrates and Town Council of the Royal burgh of Inverness, the capital of the Highlands of Scotland, in presuming to approach your Majesty at this event ful period, humbly offer the assurance of your unabated loyalty and attachment to your Majesty's person, with our ardent wishes for the long continuance of your Majesty's tranquil and glorious reign. " It 'is, however, with no ordinary feelings of anxiety and alarm that we learn the important fact of your Majesty having dismissed from your Councils, all the Members of an Adminis tration, not only possessing the confidence of the country, but pledged to carry into effect such measures of Reform as are ne cessary to restore our Public Institutions to a sound and healthy condition.—We lament that the recent change has occurred under circumstances attaching,—in the eyes of the Nation, — such weighty responsibility to your Majesty individually,—nor can we conceal from ourselves the danger and insecurity that may result from this change,—especially if the late Adminis tration be succeeded (as there is too much reason to appre hend) by one opposed to that liberal and enlightened system of policy, which we believe to be the only sure defence of the Throne and the Constitution. " Your Majesty has earned a high and lasting fame, both at home and abroad, by supporting the principle of Constitutional Reform, in seasons of difficulty aad danger.—The nation is now improving peacefully and rapidly,—through all its ranks and professions,—in knowledge and strength,—Commerde and Manufactures. We pray, therefore, that nothing may occur to THE ELECTIONS. BEVERLEY.—Henry Burton, Esq., the present M. P. for Beverley, has again addressed his constituents, declaring his intention of offering himself to their notice at the ensuing election. Bnawicx.—There is a good deal of excitement in the town arising from the prospect of an immediate dissolution of par liament. Sir Francis Blake will arrive with the mail to morrow, and it is enough for us to say that a more faithful representative than Sir Francis never sat in the House of Commons. He has maintained his political principles incor ruptible whoever might be minister, and under whatever cir cumstances he might be placed. The friends of Sir Rufane Donkin are also on the alert. Sir Rufane has been a most faithful and useful representative, and was an independent supporter of the late Ministry. We were not aware until the other day that some of his friends entertained the belief that he did not vote for the third reading of the bill for admitting dissenters to the Universities. We think it our duty therefore to state that Sir Rufane supported and voted for the bill through all its stages, and took a lively interest in its progress through the Commons. Colonel Beresford we hear declines coming forward on the Tory interest, and we hear others spoken of as being anxious to come forward, both Tories and Liberals. EDINBURGIL-Our two able and faithful representatives are again to stand, and on this occasion Edinburgh will have the honour, for the first time, of returning two Opposition mem bers, and by the undivided suffrages of the Reformers of all classes.—Scotsman. HASTINGS.—Mr. Elphinstone again comes forward on the Reform interest. Mr. Planta and Mr. Briscoe (two Tories) have also declared themselves. The present members, Warre and North, intend to renew their claims. HANTS ( NORTHERN DIVISION).—We have just heard, through a channel that is entitled to reliance, that the Marquis of Douro and Mr. Walter Long, will again contest this divi sion against Mr. Lefeuvre and Mr. Scott. We trust this in formation is correct, as we think it is not probable there will this time be any mistake in the numbers.—Hants Advertiser. HuLL.—Mr. Hutt and Mr. M. D. Hill, the present patri otic members for this borough, have addressed their consti tuents, declaring their intention of again seeking the honour of their suffrages. Mr. Hill, in his address, declares himself an advocate for a thorough Church reform, for the abolition of church-rates, complete relief to the Dissenters, triennial par liaments, and vote by ballot and household suffrage, and for a complete corporation reform. A Tory candidate is spoken of, but his chance of success is desperate. LEWES.—Sir C. Blunt, and Mr. T. R. Kemp, have issued addresses to the electors,. expressing . their determination to come forward. LANCASHIRE.—Lord Molineux has declared his positive in tention to retire, unless some extensive exertions are made by' the Liberals. Mr. Heywood, the banker, who formerly repre sented the county, has been strongly urged to allow himself to be put in nomination, but has declined the proffered honour. It is now proposed to forward a requisition to Mr. Spring Rice, and the proposition has been most cordially received. Mr. Spring Rice has also been mentioned for Liverpool, and it is possible that a requisition may be sent to him from that town. We understand that the requisition to Sir Francis Egerton, requesting his Lordship to allow himself to be put in nomination for South Lancashire, will be presented to his Lordship to-day.— Wheeler's Manchester Chronicle. LEEDS.—The electors of Leeds " favourable to reform and economical government," assembled on Friday last, in the large room of the Commercial Buildings, to meet the mem bers for the borough, and to " consider the steps necessary to be taken to secure its proper representation in the anticipated event of a dissolutionof Parliament." John Marshall, Esq., formerly the member for the county, filled the chair ; and the two borough members, John Marshall, jun., Esq., and Edward Baines, Esq., with great numbers of their friends, were pre sent. The meeting returned its thanks in an extremely cor dial manner to the members for their services, and expressed towards them " unabated attachment and regard." The can vassers for Sir John Beckett, the Ministerial, Corporation, and Lowther candidate, have been extremely active.—Leeds Mercury. LEITH.—The friends of Mr. Murray in Leith are deter mined to take the most efficient steps to secure the re-election, if a dissolution of Parliament should take place, of their pre s'nt talented and excellent representative. It is whispered that Aitcheson is to be laid on the shelf, and Mr. Baring brought forward—mere idle talk, we believe I —Scotsman. NORTHALLERTON.—On Thursday morning last, W. B. Wrightson, Esq. arrived here, direct from Dublin, again to offer himself a candidate for the representation of this borough, in the event of a dissolution of Parliament. He commenced to canvass the town of Northallerton the same day, and was generally received by the electors with the most flattering as surances of support, so as to leave very little doubt of his being returned should the borough be again contested ; but it has just transpired that Captain Boss has declined becoming a can didate, so that the field is entirely left to Mr. Wrightson, and the result will be his unanimous return, as no other opposition is anticipated. NOTTINGHAM.—An address is in the course of signature, among the electors there, to Sir John Cam Hobhouse, Bart., expressing their approbation of his conduct in declining the invitation of the electors of Westminster, which is already re presented by two Reformers, and inviting him to offer himself again. PONTEFRACT.—Mr. Gully, the present Member for this bo rough, has issued a spirited and able address to the electors, in which he announces his intention to stand again, should a dissolution take place. PLYMOUTII.—A meeting of the friends of J. Collier, Esq., M.P., for Plymouth, took place in the Mechanics Institution of that borough on Wednesday last, when it was resolved that the electors should do all in their power to secure his re election in the event of a dissolution of Parliament. On the following day, a similar meeting took place at the Freemason's Hall, in favour of Thomas Bewis, Esq., the other representa tive of Plymouth. Both these gentlemen are Reformers. RIPON.—It is said that it has been proposed to Mr. Wool verley Attwood, son of Mr. Matthias Attwood, M.P. for Whitehaven, to stand for Ripon. ROCHDALE.—Iobn Fenton, Esq., the present member, and John Entwistle, Esq., a Tory, have both pledged themselves to stand a poll, should there be a new election. The friends of both parties have commenced a canvass.— Wheeler's Manches ter Chronicle. Sussia—OVEsTEßN DIVISION.—There is not the most remote chance of any change in the western division of this county. It is as close as ever was the most rotten borough under the old system of misrepresentation ; and it is corn pietely under the control of the aristocracy. In the eastern division it is supposed that the present members will walk the course. The late changes may, however, have revived the spirits of the Tories, who, it is hinted, have been endeavouring to induce Mr. Villiers Shelley to come forward. SHEFFIELD.—The two sitting Members will, no doubt, offer themselves again. SOUTH DURHAM.—The Duke of Wellington is in very bad odour in this part of the country. The liberal electors are bestirring themselves, and we understand that steps are already taken for calling into the field again, in the event of a dissolu tion, Joseph Pease, Esq., and John Bowes, Esq. Both of these gentlemen are tried Reformers of a very liberal cast, and are deservedly popular among their constituents. At a meet ing held at the Fleece Inn, Darlington, on Thursday last, it was stated to be Mr. Pease's intention again to offer himself. SOUTHAMPTON.—The Tories are very active here, and a severe contest is expected. The Reformers are looking out for a candidate to join the present Liberal member, Mr. Pen leaze, and are very confident of being able to return both. Mr. Atherley retires. WAKEFIELD..—D. Gaskell, Esq., the present reform mem ber for this borough, has stated his determination to offer him self at the next election. WIGAN.-R. Thicknesse, Esq., M. P. for Wigan, has circulated an address, stating that from age he is not able longer to perform the duties of representing the borough. WINDSOR.—There is a rumour of six candidates being pre pared to take the field—namely, John Ramsbottom, Esq.. Sir DENHALL MARKETS. *, the Carcass.

'2 2 3 0 Veal EXECUTION THIS MORNING. This morning, at nine o'clock, the sentence of the law was carried into effect on the lodge of Horsemonger-lane gaol, upon the body of Frederick Finnigan, who was convicted at the Central Criminal Court, on Friday, of the wilful murder of Charlotte Matilda, his infant daughter. Yesterday the convict was visited by the Rev. Mr. Mann, the chaplain of the prison ; but being of the Catholic religion, be preferred the attendance of a priest of that persuasion, and Dr. Doyle was the person he selected, and that gentleman spent several hours with him during the day,• at the conclusion of which the convict appeared resigned to his fate, and even cheerful. He retired to rest early, and slept soundly until five o'clock this morning, when he partook of a hearty break fast. A little after six o'clock Dr. Doyle arrived, and performed those religious duties which are observed under such circumstances by the ministers of the Church of Rome, and he appeared to have received great consolation during the solemn service. In the course of the morning he wrote a note to a friend, of which the following is a correct transcript, orthography excepted _ " 111 y dearest Friend,—l write you this as a token of my cares which are brought on through a base and imprudent wife, and which has laid me open to the laws: I could with ease have borne her false and bitter reflections. My wife— my only wife, has been the cause of all my pain and sorrow ; but now I freely forgive her all, and I'll lie silent in the grave." A few minutes after nine the convict was conducted from the chapel to the fatal platform : immediately as the proces sion arrived at the roof of the prison the rain commenced and fell in torrents for several minutes, so that every person was completely drenched. The executioner having adjusted the rope, Dr. Doyle read some prayers to the convict, which occupied some time. As soon as the Rev. Divine withdrew, the platform fell, and after a few struggles life was extinct. The unfortunate man was possessed of a freehold at Cam berwell, and at the death of his father his property would have been encreased. He was very much respected in the neigh bourhood, and the inhabitants consider that there are many circumstances attending the case of a mitigatory nature. The corpse of the convict will be buried within the precincts of the gaol. Notwithstanding the unfavourable state of the weather, the concourse of spectators was very great. THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. The arrivals of the pest week were tolerably good of most kinds of Grain, but of Barley there was a considerable quantity ; of Flour the supply was good. The trade throughout the week was dull for most articles. This morning there was a good supply of Corn in general. The Wheat trade continues dull, and except for superfine samples, may be reported one shilling per quarter lower. Barley for malting is Is. per quarter cheaper, but fur grinding is unvaried in value. Beans, both old and new, have declined full Is. per quarter. Boiling Pease are dull at last quotations. Grey Pease firmly maintain their value. Oats meet buyers slowly, but the last rates are fully maintained. In the Flour trade transactions are limited. and the sale is dull at last week's decline. PRICES ON BOARD OF SHIP.

A meeting of the extensive and wealthy parish of St. Marylebone took place this day in the court-yard of the workhouse, in the New-road, having been convened by the churchwardens, in accordance with requisitions numerously signed by rate-payers in the different divisions of the parish, " to adopt such measures as may be considered necessary in the present eventful crisis of public affairs." From the feeling which has been evinced at the preparatory meetings of parish ioners, there appears no doubt of the unanimous adoption of re solutions similar to these passed last week in the adjoining parish of St. Pancras. 5217 :s OF r:;:~ 7
