( .); 1. • " The Dublin Illornir4 Register, which has been lately pressing on the attention of public men.a variety of evidence laid before Parliament at different - times, on the subject of the capabi lity of the Irish bogs to , admit of the coloniza tion in them of the redundant population df he land, at an expense trifling, when compared to that at which they could be removed to any of our foreign possessions, has, in the Number for Wednesday, addressed a Letter to Mr. Stanley, the new Colonial Secretary, on this very iin portant subject. If the population be so redun dant as to defeat all attempt at improvement, if there be hundreds of parishes that would apt be relieved without the removal of 1,200 families 1 . /bin each, it is child's play to be talking of re ! moving only 1,200 families in the way of an ex- , periment requiring four or five years to be fairly tried. In fiyur or five years, observes the. Re gister, at. the preSent rate of progression, Ireland would receive an increase of a million or twelve hundred thousand souls; so that we should be acting like a man attempting 'to clear a 'piece of ground by a small dram, while a large stream was constantly flowing into it. If expert-. -inents . are to.be made, let, us in God's name set about them at home in the first place; for there is no use in trying them in Canada, if fifteen or twenty millions be. - necessary to complete an emigration, as the , stiin'never .will be . granted and if the home . experiment succeeds, the sum stated to be requisite may be. obtained. The following is'an extract from the- DirNin• iiipni big Register, recoininendatoryof the experiment, followed by 39 reasons for a, Grant of British money to .relieve Irish distress,, from the Stine Journal : . " The people here are persuaded that the Emi pntimi scheme is idle and impracticable, and - tliat it will end in mere talk. They knoW, that to be ef fective, it would involve an . expenditure of fifteen or twenty millions, and .that we might almost as well attempt to, wipe off, the national debt itself, as to raise' and appropriate that sum under present cir- . . • VICTUALLING OFFICE, Sr.*f 25, 122/4 THE" COrnmiaSioners for Victualling his Mijesty's Navy, &c: de hereby give Noti4;e n that on Txt:resnay, th e 4 t h of October next, they will be ready to receive.

On the 7th of May, 1825, the foundation stone of the north-pier was laid by his Royal Highness the' "Duke of Sussex, with masonic honours; and, from - thenceforth, under the di rection of Mr. W. Tierney Clarke, the engineer, to whom the credit of the design is due, the labours proceeded with the utmost possible acti vity, until the ' bridge assumed its present light and elegant appearance. During the progress of the works, from the novelty of such a structure Cattle at per score Sheep, Latubii, and Pigs, per score l, 0 ,b 1 0 6 I - -6 A Meetnig of the Committee of Proprietors took, place on 7 Friday, at the Freemason's Tavern, for the purpose of arranging the ceremonial which is to be observed on the opening of the bridge. His • Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence; and his 'Royal Highness ; the Duke of Sussex, have been invited to be present,. but their answers have not yet been received ; and, consequently ; the precise fOrm of the procession cannot yet.be arranged. It will, however, be extremely splendid, and we understand 'the city of London Artillery Company will attend to fire a succession •of salutes. Several Masonic Lodges will also march over the bridge ; and the display of banners; 'flags, .and .other appropriate emblems; accompanied by bands of, music,. will, nd doubt, 'give additional spirit to the'seene.— All the Measure-yachts on the,river will be in attendance; together with the customary, flotilla of cutters, wherries, and skiffs. Several steam boats will likewise be brought into requisition ; and, upon the whole, a most gratifying spec tacle may be anticipated: A splendid .entertain ment is to be given at the City Arms, kept by Mr. Mountain, at the foot of the bridge on the Hammersmith side. All th e i n h a bi tan t s of the surrounding country arc upon the qui vine, and private partics•will, no d ou b t , b e numerous to celebrate the event. His Royal Hi g h ness t h e D u k e o f S ussex has taken a peculiar interest in the progress of the work, and has frequently visited the bridge in his walks to his smoking-box, which is situated about a quarter of a Mile from the spot, and commands a full view of the bridge.

The bridge consists of one fixture pier on each using shore, and two stone towers from the bed of the river. The chains which sustain the bridge are eight in number, composed of wrought iron bars five inches deep, and one inch thick, four of these chains have six bars in each chain, and four have only three bars, making in the total thirty-six chains. These chains are retained by the fixture piers, and from thence suspended on roller-frames fixed in the stone toWers, forming a curvitur e i n the centre o f about 20 feet Versed sine.

About half-past nine o'ef that night an accident happened to the. Ty 28, Captain Kearney White, by a Swedish timl 'ship running foul of her, which obliged her to I back.

In this positiC the Tyne, with her cutwater, was doing her gr damage, as a good deal of sea was running, and t Tyne's foreyard carried away her mizen-mast. S proved to be the ship Neptunus, a•Swede, dee laden, bound to LiSbon. Some idea may be form of the fright which seized the crew, on the Collet sion of the ships, from the fact, that after the shi were clear of each other, three Swedes were 'form on board the . Tyne, who, on being questioned, s 4 they knew nothing of the accident; they were their hammocks at the time, but feeling the shoal and imagining their ship was going doWn, • they jumped out of their. hammocks, and Into the Tyrie.' No personal casualty happened to any one except to the Swedish Captain, who received a blow on qie leg. The Ty ne was o bli ge d . ,to return, to be takOi into dock, the knee of her head being damaged, aid her foremast and bowsprit both sprung. The Swede also • arrived the same day, with the loss of her mizenrmast, bulwarks, chain-plates, and channels, and her rigging much cut. This accident is -more regretted, because it will throw the Tyne out of the fair. line of competition with the other ships.
