IRELAND. Dublin, September 14. • POLITICAL UNION.—The Trade Union held their weekly meeting last night. The conduct of Mr. Reynolds in agi tating the Repeal question met with general and decided reprehension. After some discussion on this topic two reports of a very favourable description, emanating from the deputations that recently went through the county of Dublin, were read. A public meeting has been held in Tullamore. The people have nobly done their duty with regard to the Re gistration, and the Justice Rent is also in progress of collection. A letter has been received in town from Lord Minto, First Lord of the Admiralty, stating that the Madagascar Frigate, Captain Sir J. S. Peyton, K.C.H., of forty-six guns, has been ordered to Kingstown, and might be ex pected to arrive on or before the 14th inst. She will re main for a week, after which she proceeds to Milford to join the Galatea—D. E. Post. ENGLISH SYMPATHY FOR IRISH WRONG.—This dig.. puted question is warmly discussed in the Irish papers. We give the conclusion of an article on the subject from the Freeman's Journal of Wednesday. The Examiner, after quoting the paragraph in Mr. O'Connell's letter, in which he gives so much sound and wholesome advice to the Whigs as to their future conduct, says,—" On one most important occasion Mr. O'Connell's advice would have committed the Ministry to an infamy unparalleled and to certain ruin. It is notorious that he wished Ministers to accept the Irish Tithe Bill without the a ppropriatian clause, and thus to waive the principle by holding which to be indispensable they had broken up the Government of Sir Robert Peel. It is equally notorious that after the Irish Corporations Bill had been eviscerated' by the Lords, Mr. O'Connell went about the town saying that it should be accepted, and he only changed his lan guage when he found that Government spurned the very notion of so shameful a submission. On these occasions had the Ministry been influenced by Mr. O'Connell, it would have been disgraced and ruined, and its conduct was far more honest and courageous than his promptings. Let us cite another instance with a different result." Now it so happens that we had the best possible oppor tunities of ascertaining the truth or falsehood of the fore - going, and we have not the slightest hesitation in declar ing, in the strongest and most emphatic terms, that the very contrary is the fact. Is it not notorious that he (Mr. O'Connell) wished the ministers to accept the Irish Tithe Bill without the appropriation clause? It is quite true that the Tory journals asserted that ministers had determined on abandoning the clause, and that in this determination they were-likely - to be supported by Mr. O'Connell ; but the writer of this heard Mr. O'Connell publicly declare, in the Westminster Club-house, that it was a libel on the Ministry to suppose or assert that they ever contemplated such a proceeding. Again, it is not true that Mr. O'Con nell went about town saying that the Irish Corporation Bill, after it had been eviscerated by the Lords, should be ac cepted by the Commons. Mr. O'Connell is seldom on 'town. Whatever his opinions may be of a public question or of public men, he keeps them to himself till he has an opportunity of promulgating them in public. It is, howe ver, unfortunately for the Examiner, notorious that a cer tain portion of Ministers were most anxious that the Bill should he agreed to. The liberal Irish Members know this to be a fact ; and they know that Mr. O'Connell was just as anxious that it should be rejected. It may be said that this, like the accusations of the Examiner, is mere asser tion. To this we reply that we have the means of esta blishing the accuracy of everything we have advanced, and —if necessity requires—we are ready arid willing to come forward with abundant proof, in support of our assertion, TRANQUILLITY.—The perfect- peace which prevails ge nerally throughout the country, and in those places too ` which here forMerly the theatre of agrarian outrages, is proved by every day's post. We take the following evi dence of improvement in the temper and habits -of the people, taken from the last number of the Killi•ensty.lournal. At the monthly petty sessions, on Saturday last, at the Llinetree, there was not a single case, either civil or criminal, Mr trial, The district for which these sesgions are held contains eight parishes, and extends through nearly the whole barony of Shillelo,gber. -It is certainly a most extra ordinary fact that iii so large and populous a district, after the lapse of a month, there should not be a case of any de icription to go before the Magistiates. Such a gratifying state of things is owing to many causes—ta the exertions of the Catholic clergy—the good sense of the people tl-wm . selves—and, in a great measure, to the peaceful and judi cious conduct bf the respectable and intelligent presiding Magistrates of that district. 'We trust .tbat the existing tranquillity, not only in the Limetree dietrict, but through out the whole county of Kilkenny, will never ha disturbed by the revival of the ascendancy of the vile and sanguinary Tory faction. YOUGHAL ORANGEMF.N.—There is a small clique of Orangemen in Youghal, who took it into their heads lately to hold a feast and to make speeches. It'would appear tI4 there was present at the entertainment (inter alias) a person who rejoices in the name of O'Driscoll, and delights in being considered as a Roman Catholic. Until fother day, we had no idea that your Papist born and bred—your man having an idolatrous father and anti-Christian mother— would-belong to the holy brotherhood of Orangemen ; their leading rule and 'principle—the very ground of the associa tion—being that no person descended from Catholic parents could become a Member. Our ignorance, .however, has been recently enlightened . the rule has more than once been modified, in order to let in certain apostate Papists, who had rendered themselves peculiarly-obnoxious to the co-religionists of their fathers and mothers, and whose rene gade shamelessness had recommended them in a peculiar degree to Orange patronage. We doubt not that the De; lanys, the Crottys, and a fellow we have heard (if in Mona ghan, who is desirous to follow in the profitable wake•of these apostles of the True Faith, will forthwith be received into the generous arms of the Orange Confederacy.—Dub list Evening Post. Between 10 and 11 o'clock Thursday morning, a man, named James Oliver, dropped down dead, as he was car rying a sack of flour into Mr. Wymans, baker, Leather-lane. Yesterday at a meeting of the Board of Guardians, of the parish of St. Marylebone, one of the assistvit overseers stated that a sturdy Irishman, Cornelius Barry, had been no less than seven times• sent home to Ireland with two of his children, in the course of three or four years, •and he,as_often returned to that parish. The Oay before yesterday the same two children were left by their father at Lisson Grove, and from thence they-were brought the workhouse, where they had been inmates off and on since they were born, about nine years ag'p. Barry, he observed, was well known to the officers of the establishment as well as to the police, and although a de scription of him had been forwarded to the different police stations, he had hitherto contrived to, escape. As the only .effectual•means, therefore, of securing his apprehension, the Board directed that a reward should be offered, which might quicken the vigilance of the police.' The *erseer also stat e d that when I3arry was last sent telreland,. he had not a shilling in his pocket, b - ut 'he understood that there were societies in the sea-ports in that country who paid for the passage of their paupers to Liverpool or Bristol, as the case might be, and from - thence they begged their way to the metropolis. Yesterday, pursuant to an order from the Board of. Overseers of the parish of St. Luke, Chelsea. issued upon the representation of Mr. Wilson, one of the parochial surgeons, Catherine Thomas, alias Steele, a female who evidently had possessed great personal attractions, - formerly under the pro tection of a merchant in the city, was removed on a litter from a wretched hovel in Blacklands-lane to the infirmary ward of the workhouse, being in the last stage of consumption, brought on in the opinion of the medical officers of the parish by the want of the common necessaries of life, and great mental suffering.' It appears by a statement in the New York papers on the subject of the gold coinage, that in the years 1826, 1827, and 1828, it amounted to only 15'4,655 dollars annually. Since that period it has been as follows 1829, ' 295 717 ll • dollars ;in 1830, 643,105 dollars ;in 1831, 714,270 dollars in 183 2 , 798,435 do llars ; i n 1833 , 978,550 dollars 3,954,27 0- dollars; in 1835, 2,186,175 dollars ; an in 1834, ' d in the first six months of 1836,.1,006,575 dollars. In the last s i x months of the present year it was expected to be much larger. In the next year the means, of the Government for co i n i n g will be increased by the completion of three new branch Mints. On this subject it i may be remarkedof that illat it is now the declared policy of the Government to charter no oo;the e lated to banks, and to connect itself to no establishments na ture, but to confine its monetary operations eoina to. thp i i ssu ingavery large and perfect gold and silver c form the proper basis for the whole circulation of try. Mr. Van Buren, who is expected to succeed General Jackson in the Presidency, in a public declaration has o e f x l p i r s e o ss p r e i d l . nions which be has been called upon to-make, similar sentiments on this question-of the currency. "It is high time," he says, " that we should re turn to the Reform is policy,, -and the first step in the way of is that the Federal Government confine itself to the crea tion of. coin, and that the States afford it a fair chance for c i rcu l a ti o n. Can any one inssign even a plausib le reason why the United States cannot maintain as stable a cur rency as either France or Great Bfitain ? None, I imagine, other than it has not been the policy of the Government that it should be so. In all material respects, so Mr as I can judge, we are in at, equally favourable, if not a superior condition. Whilst both those countries must rely on importations from abroad for golf for their Mints, we derive three-fourths of a jeillion annually from our mines, and are besides .nearer the great su pplies of it in South Am er i ca .

A very sudden change has occurred in the state of things at the Stock- Stock-Exchange, ange, and there i s a di s p os ition abroad to give the credit of it to the m easures o f th e B an k Directors, in contracting the currency, which have thus early, according to this class of reasoners, brought about the restoration of pub lic confidence. A more mistaken notion than this cannot be formed, and th e a l tere d appearance o f th e St oc k-Exchange is, in fact, a proof that the Directors, out of subserviency to the Government, and in order to get Mr. Spring Rice out of the di ffi cu lt y w ith hi s E xc hequer-bills, are already beginning to deviate from the only course which could set them and the country right. The late pressure which they brought on at the Stock-Exchange, against which, and not against our commerce and manufacturing indus try, their efforts should from the first have been directed, was already beginning to produce the best effects. Those importations of foreign securities which had been so much overdone, and led to so much mischief by turning the exchanges against us, had begun to turn in a contrary direction ; the exchanges were recovering, and trade settling down into its healthy natural state ; b ut they are now evidently proceeding to renew that evil which, however clumsily and awkwardly they had set about it, was in a tolerably certain progress of cure. This has fre quently been adverted to before as an error i nto which they were very likely to fall, if that can be called an error which is rather a wilful blindness or a desertion of their duty to the public. Their original blunders in the early part of the year, in lending their absolute aid to stock operations, the tendency of which ought at that time to have been obvious to them, will be venial com pared with these, because they can only be imputed to their fear of Mr. Spring Rice, and their wish to reconcile their masters to all the errors of their administration, which give them, it must be confessed, an awful power over them. This conduct is commented on in the city, among the superior class of merchants, in terms of the utmost 'indignation. They have submitted to the incon venience they were themselves exposed to by the rise in the rate of interest, and even become reconciled to it by the advantages it was beginning to work in other respects, when they see the same hands which produced the scarcity employed in making it again abundant, carrying on, in fact, a double course of policy at the same time, contradictory to itself, and calculated to bring on again the mischief from which we were beginning to escape. No reason exists why the Government alone should escape the consequences of the general rise in the value of money ; a wise Ministry would have been among the first to submit to it, but the Bank persist in endeavouring to secure for them such an exemption for motives of their own, and they throw the whole commerce of the country into confusion by it.— Times. The Prince and Princess of Capua left Marseilles on the 9th inst., for Malta, on board of the Napoleon steamer. According to the Messager de Marseille, an individual called on the Prince of Capua, at the Hotel Beauveau, on the pre ceding day, and offered to raise the kingdom of Naples in his favour. The Prince, however, whether he was offended at his loyalty being doubted, or suspected the honesty of the man, gave information of the fact to the authorities, and the man was arrested. It is said that the Grand Duke Michael, between whom and the Emperor a coolness has existed for some time, has been again taken into favour, and is destined to play an important political part in European affairs. The Duke's mis sion to the Hague may therefore be looked upon as special. It is said that M. Galiano, the colleague of M. Istur;z, has succeeded in making his escape from Madrid, and has landed at Rochefort, in France. The number of Colonels of Marines is now reduced to three ; namely, the Hon.

A shocking accident happened at Yeovil on Sunday evening, as the congregation were returning from church. A horse, belonging to Mr. B,ullen, who hail just returned' from the country with his wife and child, in his gig, was left to itself a few minutes whilst they were alighting ; but whilst Mrs. Bullen was getting out, the animal started off and ran with great violence through the street towards Hendford turn pike. It had not proceeded far before it came in contact with a wheel chair, in which Mr. Tucker, a very infirm old gentle man, was returning from church. The chair was smashed to 'pieces, Mr. Tucker thrown out, and his leg broken above the knee, from which accident it is feared it will be a very long time before he recovers. There were hundreds in the street at the time, and it was a providential escape that no other ac l-cident occurred.—Shei borne Mercury.

The 26th printed report of the Committee on Public Petitions was delivered on Wednesday morning, and with it the labou'rs of the Committee conclude. The total number of petitions presented to the House of Commons during the past Session, to'the 9.oth of August inclusive, was 5,831. An interesting-looking young woman, about eighteen years of age, dressed in a style of fashionable elegance, at tracted the attention of several persons Thursday morning in Oxford-street, by the singularity of her demeanour. She held in her hand a work basket, in which were small bundles of straw, which she exposed for sale to the passengers, asking them at the same time, if they would " buy any matches." So extraordinary a circumstance soon drew a crowd round her, and many, from curiosity, purchased her little bundles, for which she returned the most grateful ackitowledgments. At length an elderly gentleman, in great agitation, forced his way through the throng, and catchingg her in his arms, he was for a moment lost in the greatest anguish. 'Several gentlemen of fered their assistance, and a coach being procured, the unfor tunate maniac was placed in it. To this she made no re sistance, but continued crying her matches.

I ~y ix Zfn nn+ LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 17, 1836 The QUEEN of PORTUGAL has accepted and pro chimed the Portuguese Constitution of 1820. This Most extraordinary and unexpected event took place at an early hour on the morning of the 9th inst., under circumstances which-will be found minutely detailed in a communication which has been received by express — and published in second editions by two of our Morn ing Contemporaries. The Constitution of 1820 was thrice solemnly sworn to by JOHN VI., and as often by that hopeful heir to all his Royal virtues—Don MIGUEL. The KING first ac cepted the Constitution in Rio Janeiro'; the second time when he landed in Lisbon, having been restored to his kingdom by Great Britain ; the third time, in October, 1822: and yet, on the 20th of June, in the year following, his Most Faithful MAJESTY formally abolished it by his Royal proclamation ! The abo lition of the Constitution was effected by the most barbarous and perfidious means. The KING, who was himself little better than an idiot all his life, was pre vailed upon to tamper with the army through his secret agents ; and it was not long before the regiment commanded, by Brigadier SAUZA DE SAMPAN , ' and several other companies, were brought over to the side of the Absolutists. Neither money nor promises were spared. The Cortes were sounded, each apart, and to all, hopes of individual aggrandizement and titles were held out. General SEPULVEDA was one of the most active instruments on this occasion. The QUEEN, who was publicly and notoriously opposed to the Constitution, secretly urged on the Absolutists, and it was said, at the time, that she went so far, as to make a sacrifice of her virtue to remove the scruples of one of the leaders. On the morning of the 27th of May, 1823, the first open movement was made by the troops in Lisbon to put down the Constitution, and on the sth of June following, the - KING, attended by DON MIGUEL, as Generalissimo of the army, and surrounded by a licen tious and drunken soldiery—most of them half naked —went to the cathedral to %return GOD thanks for having succeeded in abolishing the object of his thrice repeated perjuries ! But the .inhabitants of Lisbon were not so ready to forswear themselves. Despite of the menaces and curses of the clergy, .and the system of terrorism adopted by DON IVIIGiAL, they remained faithful to their oaths, and only forbore to proclaim the Constitution on the accession of Queen DONNA MARIA, out of respect for her Majesty's Imperial father, 1)on PEDRO—then Regent of the kingdom. Emboldened, however, by recent events in Spain, and taught •by that brave people - that the constitutional liberty of the subject might be asserted without danger to the person or the prerogatives of the SoVERtIGN, the in-- habitants of Lisbon ; resolved to anticipate the meeting of the Cortes, which was fixed for the 11th. We are truly happy to be able to announce . that they acorn.; plished . their object without any very reprehensible de gree of unnecessary violence. • . What effect the proclamatiot; of the Constitution may. have upon the Portuguese nation, or what means may be emplOyed to cause . ‘the QUEEN to revoke her Sanction of it, are questions upon which it is premature to pronounce any .opinion,hefore the Cortes shall Wave assembled to deliberate upon the change that .has taken place: The shock, however, of so sudden a move ment will be felt in Paris. The CITIZEN . KING will be the first to feel it ; though, for reasons well under stood by - his subjects, he will he the last to appear sen sible another consequence t he ,no n-i ot e of r . Sible of the danger with which it th reatens t h e ORLEANS' dynasty.olioy This is which dictated that preposterous p vention system in the affairs of .Spain. Had the CITIZEN KING kept faith with Queen CHRISTINA, the Constitution of Cadiz would not have been heard of on the other side of the Pyrenees ; and, as . the necessary result, the revival of the Constitu tion of Portugal would •not. have taken place for ten years yet to come—if even so soon. But, fortunately for the cause of Constitutional liberty,' ,NGE YESTERDAY.

LOUIS PHILIPPE'S treachery only accelerated the events it was intended to crush for ever. The poisoned chalice has returned to his own lips, and he must now quaff it without a mask. His attempts to betray the liberties of Spain, and to involve Switzerland in a war with the absolute Governments of Europe, are all discovered. Since the above was written, we have received pri vate assurances from a well-informed quarter, that the Queen of PORTUGAL was always favourably disposed towards the Constitution, and that at no time since her accession would it have required force to cause her to accept it. On the contrary, she has frequently expressed surprise that the people did not call for it, and as often stated that she would be delighted to comply with their wishes. With the Constitution given by her Imperial father to the Brazilians in 1823, she is well acquainted. The change of Ministry, by which the proclamation of the Constitution of 1820 was accompanied is an event of minor importance. Count LUMIARES is mentioned as the new President of the Council ; but nothing positive is yet known respecting the reconstruction of the Cabinet. We shall await with some anxiety the next arrivals from Lisbon. Among our extracts from the Madrid journals of the 7th instant, will be found a remarkable article from the Gazette of that date, officially contradicting the various rumours respecting the insecurity of life and property in the Spanish capital, which frOm time to time appeared in the Moniteur and other French Papers. The writer of this article deliberately asserts, in the face of Spain and the whole world, that, since the Constitution of 1812 was proclaimed in the capital, no disturbance, except a drunken brawl between some soldiers, has taken place ; that the Royal Palace is as much respected, as it was in the most peaceable days of the monarchy ; that the QUEEN-REGENT is not subject to the slightest restraint ; and that, in a word, all that has been published to the contrary, are pure inventions of the enemies of Spain. This article is written in a too vindictive spirit, for good to result from it. Instead of conciliating, it will exasperate not only the French Press but the Government. The whole of the French Journals of Thursday have been received. Their contents arc unimportant in a political point of view. They contain, however, various accounts from Spain, which will be found un der their proper head in another part of The Sun. The Conservatives have been more busy within the last few days than they have been for some months past. They have been getting up a storm in a slop bason, with a success proportioned to the magnitude of the tempest, in Essex, Lancashire, Yorkshire, and Northamptonshire; and have succeeded in enlisting all the respectable inhabitants of those counties under the ban ners of rampant Toryism. Such is their version ; but as we are well acquainted with the Munchausen qua lities of the faction ; as we have a vivid recollection of their " lies of the day," so indefatigably propagated during the past Session ; of their anti-O'CoNNELL calumnies and anti-MEL BouRNE insinuations, of course we pay as much attention to their assertions, as we should to those of a FERDINAND MENDEZ PINTO, whom CONGREVE so lavishly eulogized as a " liar of the first magnitude." It is not because a few zanies make long, dull speeches at Beverley, Peterborough, and Chipping-Ongar, that we are to infer that the counties in which these towns are situated, are converts to Conservatism. No, we are to look to the registrations, and more especially to the sentiments of the majority, and these, it is notorious, tell a far different story. Our Tory Contemporaries, we perceive, dwell with peculiar complacency on these Conservative Meetings. According to them, there has not for years past been such' an influential array of rank, wealth, intelligence, and respectability, as was assembled last week at Be verley and Peterborough. Certainly the Meetings at both these places were well attended, as far as mere numbers are concerned ; but if common sense and right, feeling are to he taken into consideration, never were such arrant failures. Not a syllable was spoken worth speaking ; not an argument advanced worth refutation. This was particularly remarkable at Beverley; for there a clergyman was one of the chief speakers ; and of course the burden of his lamentation, was the dilapi dated state of Mother Church's finances. The good old gentlewoman, observed the Rev. Mr. COLTMAN, was in the most piteous plight possible, being " ever the first object of attack in the crusades made against the venerable and valuable institutions of the country." We thank the Reverend Speaker for this 'word " cru sade." It is the most appropriate phrase he could possibly have selected; for the crusades, it may be re membered, were wars carried on for the purpose of rescuing the Holy Sepulchre from the hands of In fidels ; and in like manner the crusades of the Re formers against the Church are for the purpose of rescuing it from the hands of Mammon. We have no desire to destroy the Church ; far otherwise, we desire only to purify it. We would not deface one stone of the sacred edifice ; we would only prop up those parts which are weak, and require strengthening. But this, of course, the 'Conservatives will not hear of. This, in their opinion, is downright sacrilege ; and if such be indeed the case, then was MILTON, whom Englishmen hitherto have been taught from their cradle to look up to with a reverence bordering on idolatry, one of the most sacrilegious wretches that ever lived. The Rev. Gentleman went on to lament that " the elergy of this kingdom were passing through a fiery ordeal." We do not exactly know what Mr. COLT MAN means by this, unless it be a pathetic allusion to the case of the Archbishop of CANTERBURY, who, it may be remembered, passed through the Re form " ordeal" a few weeks since, and came out of it, unsinged, - with fifteen thousand per annum in his pocket—if this be the Rev. Speaker's meaning, surely it would be more becoming in him to rejoice, rather than shudder at, an " ordeal" attended with such sa tisfactory results to those who have already passed, or may yet have to pass, through it ! But clergymen are never satisfied.' Improve the Church ever so much, or ever so little, still these rooks must have their croak. Like the drummer when flogging the negro, the Reformers are always hitting the parsons in -the wrong place—either too high or too low. The Earl of WINCHILSEA chaunted the same touching ditty- at Peterborough that Mr. COLTMAN ' chaunted at Beverley. He too bewailed the afflictions -of Mother Church, and sat weeping among the ruins of_•the " ter! Irish Bishoprics,'.' like MARIUS among, those of Carthage. We • had fallen -upon evil times, observed this disconsolate Peer: The spirit of anarchy was abroad; the very, air we breathed was tainted by it ; but thank GOD there was still a Housd of Lords, -which had registered a vow in Heaven to do its best to clear our political atmosphere. His Lord ship must have surprising confidence in the obtuse ness of his hearers' intellects, to utter such nonsense as this. The Commissioners, we are happy to find, have lost no time in setting the new machinery to work for the commutation of tithe into a rent-charge. 'lt will be recollected that the direct interference of the Com- ; missioners is not required, until it shall have been ascertained that the tithe-owners and land-owners are not disposed to avail themselves of the provision which the Act makes for a voluntary adjustment of the mat- ters at issue between them. The first step in the pro cess is to bring together those two parties in the seve ral parishes, for the purpose of fixing what is to be the amount of the rent-charge in cumulo to be in future substituted for tithe. This general amount having been agreed upon at a parochial meeting, called by at least one-fourth (in value) of either land-owners or tithe-ownero and comprising not less than two-thirds (in value) of both these classes of proprietors, and the agreement having been approved of by the Commissioners and the Bishop of the diocese, the next step is to allot to each portion of land in the parish the quantum of rent-charge with which it ought to be burdened. This is, perhaps, the most difficult part of the whole business. It is a task requiring in those who perform it no ordinary degree of practical knowledge in agricultural matters, as well as the strictest moral integrity. It is indeed hardly to be expected that the " valuers," were they angels from heaven, would give satisfaction to all. Some will think that their land pays too much, and that of their neighbours too little. But every reasonable ground of complaint has been removed by vesting the appointment of the valuers in the land owners themselves, and giving them, besides, the power of objecting to the apportionment and bringing it under the revision of the Commissioners, by whom it must be confirmed. The Ist of Octoben 1838, is the limit fixed by the Act for a voluntary settlement between the owners of land and of tithes. If no proceedings with a view to an amicable arrangement shall have commenced by that time, the Commissioners take the matter in hand, and do that for the parties which they have refused to do for themselves. The Commissioners are Mr. BLANfIRE, late Mem ber for East Cumberland (on whose suggestion many im portant amendments were made in the Bill in its passage through the 'House of Commons), Captain BULLER, and Mr. JONES, of King's College. These gentlemen have entered upon their labours by framing and sup plying, in terms of the 22d clause of the Act, forms of Notices, Agreements, &c., to the Churchwardens of the different parishes in England and Wales. This promptitude is highly commendable, and we would re commend that it be met by similar promptitude on the part of those whose interests are more immediately concerned. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (THIS DAY.) TOWN-HALL. Charles Marlin, a bulky Frenchman, was this morning brought before Mr. Alderman BROWN, charged by Joseph Lavellee, also a Frenchman, with striking him at the White Hart Inn, in the borough. Mr. Alderman BROWN—WeII, Mr. Lavellee, what com plaint have you to make against the man at the bar ? Mr. Lavellee—Complaint !

Mr. Alderman BROWN—WeII, Kitty, what did you see of this ? Kitty—See, your wurtship, I saw nothing of it barring the beating.—(Laughter.) Mr. Alderman BROWN-Oh, that will do for us. Well, Ann, what have you got to say ? Ann Murphy—Why, I have this to say, that I saw that man bate the other enough to stag nify.him.7-(Laugllter. ) Mr. Alderman BaowN—Well, prisoner, what have you to say to this ? Marlin—Dat man dere comes to dis house, de White Hart, where I live, to do nothing but quarrel with me, to call me bad names, and do all he can to vex me. Lavellee—l do no such ting ; he do all he can to vex me he say lam de man dat struck his wife in France. _ _ Mi. Alderman BROWN—WeII, you must find bail for the assault. Marlin—Bail ! What's that ? If you want one or two hun dred pounds I can get it. Mr. Alderman BROWN—No, no. I want two respectable persons to answer for your keeping the peace towards this man. The prisoner then brought two half starved objects forward, who were declared ineligible, and the prisoner was locked up till Monday. SHIPPING.-(THIS DAY.) (FROM LLOYD'S.) DEAL, SEPT. 16. Wind E. N.
