Board Room, Fleet-street, Dublin, 15th Nov. 1836. At a Special Meeting of the Board of Directors, the Right Hon. the LORD MAYOR in the Chair; Resolved—That having paid in Dublin for Notes and Orders, since the Sd day of October to 14th November, upwards of 537,0001., and the Provincial Bank of Ireland having on yesterday (Monday) presented upwards of 11,0001. for payment at the Royal Bank of Ireland in Not and Orders, and the Bank of Ireland having presented Drafts and Orders for upwards of 10,0001., the Board being deprived of the assistance of any of those Banks, con sidered it would be useless longer to struggle against a combina tion of circumstances which, added to the peculiar crisis in the Money Market, rendered it essential, for the benefit of the Share holders and welfare of the country, to suspend the Exchanges in Dublin until the circumstances which led to the sudden pressure on the Company, during the period mentioned, shall be fully in quired into and ascertained. Resolved—That is but an act of justice to the Bank of Ireland to state, that during the past week they gave anxious attention to the representations of the Directors as to the claims of this Com pany upon them as the chartered Bank of the country, for assist ance at a crisis requiring their peculiar attention, and the Com mittee are convinced that had the state of the Money Market per mitted it, the Bank of Ireland would have rendered such assistance as would have enabled your Company successfully to withstand the press upon them, without any cessation of ordinary business in Dublin. Resolved—That the assets of the Company are abundantly ample to pay all the demands upon it, and to leave the paid up capital of the Company untouched ; but tho:lapse of the month will be neces sary to allow the Bills falling due to come in, and thus enable the full discharge of the Company's liabilities. Resolved—That the National Bank of Ireland have, during the recent pressure, displayed a very laudable anxiety for the welfare of the Country, and the sustainment of public credit. The Board of Directors feel convinced that they will act in such a manner as i s becoming to a great institution, acting for the welfare of the people. That, viewing the Joint-stock Banks, consisting of numerous and solvent partners, with large Subscribed Capitals, as intimately con nected with the prosperity of the country, we consider it the duty of every well-wisher of Ireland to sustain their credit, and to rally round them at this peculiar crisis. That the prompt payment of the third instalment (as called up) on the Company's Capital Stock, amounting to 150,0001., will at once enable the Company to resume business, under cautious limits ; and we, therefore, earnestly call upon the Shareholders, in England, Ireland, and Scotland, to come forward, without delay, to pay in their instalments, and thus promote the benefit of their own property. That a statement of the Assets and Property of the Company be posted up at each Branch, for the information of the Shareholders and the Public, who may be interested therein ' • and we earnestly impress on the Noteholders, that the Capital of the Company is untouched, and, independent of the responsibility of upwards of 5,000 registered Proprietors, present undoubted security for all ex isting claims. That the Notes of the Company be received at the various Branches, and in Dublin, in payment of any bills falling due to the Company, and in payment of any Debts due to the Company—and the public are impressively cautioned not to allow designing indivi duals to injure, by depreciating the value of their property. That these resolutions be published and acted upon. William Hodges, Lord Mayor, Mansion-House. T. M. Gresham, Raheny Park. Philip Jones, Dame-street. James Dwyer, Lower Gardiner-street.

DEAFNESS. —Mr. WEBSTER Inventor of the OTAPHONE, having restored the hearing to many persons of the highest rank, on sound physiological principles, with out the use of medicine or any painful application, has published a familiar treatise on the EAR and DEAFNESS, price 55., in which some of these cases are recorded, and the internal parts of the ear represented in drawings of their natural size. The author may be consulted daily at 102, New Bond-street, where the work can be obtained. It is also sold by Messrs. Simpkin and Mar and all Booksellers. DEAF PERSONS experience many privations for want of a convenient and suitable acoustic apparatus for conveying, sound; but the HEARING CORNETS lately intro duced by DR. SCOTT being universally sought after, the manu facturers of the same respectfully intimate that the want, so long felt and complained of, is now happily supplied. These Cornets are small and light, retain their position upon the ear without any aid, may be slipped on and off in an instant, and for assisting the hearing at places of public worship, theatres, public meetings, courts of law, offices, counting-houses, and shops or other places of business, and for conveying conversation in general, they have been found to be truly desirable. Manufactured (under Dr. Scott's per sonal superintendence), by SAVORY and Co., Chemists and Medical Mechanists, 369, Strand, three doors from Exeter Hall, where the same may be procured, or printed descriptions, illustra ted by diagrams, obtained, or will be forwarded into the country as a letter, by ,- ilications, post paid. y app CHAPPED HANDS AND LIPS. MAY'S MEDICATED HONEY, for Soften ing the Skin, and Curing or Preventing Chaps on the Hands and Lips, Scc. Prepared only by C. May, Reading. If by the use of hard water or ex posure to cold winds, the face becomes rough, or the hands or lips chap ped, one or two applications only of the Medicated Honey will prove an infallible remedy, and show a decided superiority to Cold Cream, Lip Salve, or Pomade Divine. It may be used on the most delicate infant; imparts an agreeable perfume, and if used, as directed, will not leave the skin in the least degree sticky or uncomfortable. Gentlemen who are inconvenienced by shaving, and mothers who suffer by nursing, would be spared much inconvenience and pain by using the Medicated Honey. Sold in London by Sanger, 150, Oxford-street ; Stradling, Royal Ex change Gates, Cornhill ; itarclay and Sons, Farringdon.street; Edwards, St. Paul's Churchyard; Sutton and Co., Bow Church-yard; and may be had of all respectable Medicine Venders in Town and Country.

" I care not how I am physickecl, so it be not by the adventure of a quack, but advice of a physician, who I am sure will prescribe no more for me than may consist with my safety, and need doth require."— Old Divine. The Possessor of the Prescription from which these Pills are prepared, solely for him, by Mr. John T. Eddy, a scientific Chemist, obtained it from the late Dr. Armstrong, (Lecturer at Bt. Thomas's Hospital, London, and Author of the celebrated Works on Typhus and Scarlet Fever, &c. &c.) for his Wife, who, in 1827, became the Doctor': patient, when evidently labouring under confirmed Liver complaint, and to all appearance in a deep decline. She had not long taken the Pills, at the prescribed inter. vals, before she was perfectly restored to health ; and has, with the occa sional use of them, continued free from pain, and in perfect health and cheerful spirits ever since. The Possessor of this admirable Prescription (a Gentleman of private fortune), having distributed the Pills with the most extraordinary success amongst the Poor in many Counties in England, in 1835 determined to offer them, at a price, to the public; his personal observation and expe rience having convinced him that they would prove a real blessing, if taken according to the Physician's Advice and Directions in the wrapper, to all—both old and young, children as well as adults women, pregnant, and after the month of confinement -who suffered from an inactive Liver, and thence all the attend • nt miseries of Indigestion; Bilious Affec. tions (so called); Flatulence, Jaundice, Dropsy; Pain in the sides and under the Shoulder Blades; Difficulty of Breathing; distressing Sensa tion of Choking ; with the complexion, and white of the eyes, yellow. The very first two pill s genera ll y a ff or d suc h relief--such ease from every distressing pain —that the patient is at once surprised and delighted. The Medicine is gentle, though certain in it: benign effects. The quantity prescribed to be taken is small, and not oftener than alternate nights. In Boxes at Is. I yt d , sad 2s. 9d. each. The large Box contains the quantity of three small ones. 'Prepared solely for tho Proprietor, by Mr. J. T. Eddy, Bishop Stortford, Herts, who is appointed Wholesale Agent to the Proprietor.

Last night, about a quarter before 5 o'clock, a fire broke out in the premises of Mr. John Reeve, furniture broker, Primrose-street, Bishopsgate-without, and in a very short time did damn* to a considerable extent. Tho fire commenced in a back room on the ground floor, ap propriated as a wareroom for the furniture of a house, in cluding books, china, and glass, the property of a lady gone temporarily abroad, all packed in matting. From the greet quantity of matting used, the goods were almost instantly in a blaze, and there being many f ea th e r-b e ds, they yielded a peculiarly suffocating smoke. The parish engines of Shoreditch and Bishopsgate were first on the spot, and soon after a great body of firemen arrived with the engines from Jeffrey-square, Watling-street, Wellclose-square, and Farringdon-street. The parish engines alone were brought into play, while the firemen were all busily employed in getting the goods out of the wareroom, a work of much difficulty and danger. One fireman was so overcome by the smoke, that he fell among the burning goods, and was obliged to be carried home, and surgical assistance pro cured. The goods of Mr. Williams, a lodger in the front part of the house, were hastily got together, and carried into the street. ---- ----- Yesterday morning it blew a complete hurricane, and much damage bas been done in many parts of London. In the City-road, at Commercial-buildings, where the re cent great fire was at a coach-builder's and wadding manu factory, the lofty wall of the latter premises, the property of Messrs. Hyde and Co., fell in about five o'clock in the morning, with a frightful crash. It completely choked up the gateway leading to the side entrance of Bunhill-fields burial ground. There are workshops, •f various kinds, down the gateway, and it is fortunate that the accident occurred so early in the morning, as, otherwise, the pas sabe beinEr merc!:, of one carriage-lireit4th, it is scarcely possible but Soule personal injuries would have been sus tained.

There will be five eclipses in the ensuing year, two visible and three invisible. The visible ones are both of the moon—the first will take place on Thursday, the 20th of April, at 47 minutes past five o'clock in the afternoon ; and the second on Friday, the 13th of October, at 32 mi nutes past eight in the evening. During the night of Thursday last the diligence from Angers to Paris, belonging to the Messageries Royale:, was overturned between Menug and Saint-Ay, four leagues from Orleans. The concussion was so violent that the imperial was undermost, and the wheels in the air. One woman wi killed, and several of the other passengers severely wounded. The accident is attributed to the care lessness of the conductor and postillion, both of whom were asleep at the moment.—Gazette de France. On Saturday morning Mr. Jasper Holmes, residing at Groat's-place, Blackheath, committed suicide by cutting his throat. The unfortunate gentleman has been for some time past labouring under low spirits. He was the trea surer of the Greenwich Saving Bank, and one of the prin cipal subscribers to the Blackheath Bible Society. The deceased has left a family and a large circle of friends to lament his untimely end. A letter from Naples of the 23d ult. says :—" Pro fessor Zahn has this moment returned to town with the in telligence of a most curious discovery that has just been made at Pompeii. A complete table service in silver has been found. It consists of forty-four plates, a large dish, three small vessels, two spoons, and four forks. The work manship is admirable, and the articles are all in the highest state of preservation.—Nationel. COTTON-SPINNERS' TURN-OUT.—As we an nounced last week the whole of the cotton-mills in this town were locked up on Monday, and hands to the number, it is estimated, of about 15,000 have been unemployed during the week. The turn-out hands held a meeting on Monday morning, and passed a series of resolutions, indicative of their determination to persist in their demands for an in creased rate of wages. Their conduct upon this occasion, as well as during the remainder of the week, has been of the most orderly and peaceable character. We have reason to believe (and we state it with extreme regret) that no progress has been made towards an adjustment of th e dis pute, and, consequently, that thereis not at present any reasonable ground for the supposition that its settlement is at hand. On Sunday last the undermentioned troops arrived here ; their billets were previously prepared, and it is expected that they will remain with us some time—thirty-one of the Ist Dragoon Guards, commanded by Captain Tyson ; and a company of fifty-five of the 7th Fusileers, under the command of Captain Ha milton and Lieutenant Mildmay. They are quartered in different parts of the town.—Prczton Chronicle.—Up to Wednesday night, (the date of our correspondent's letter) the spinners remained out, and no terms of conciliation ap pear to be entered into up to that period. Spinners and their piecers are leaving the town daily ; and should this difference continue long it will be a very difficult matter for masters to collect their hands together when the dispute is ended. We hope this affair may be settled soon. The number of persons now out of employment is estimated at 15,000, about 600 of whom are spinners, who are supported by their unio ns ; a ll t h e res t are near l y d est i tute. M essrs.

On Tuesday evening the following melancholy and fatal accident occurred at Brompton :—About seven o'clock a female ab ou t 54 years o f age , name d A nne Ro binson, residing at N o . 2, Y or k C o tt ages , Old B rompton , went while in a state of intoxication to the Bell and Horns public.house, in the Fulham-road, but was refused being close by, offered Rhoads, the landlady, who, knowing that sh e e to see 'Mrs. Robinson home, which she did, as s i s t e d by h er servan t. I n a b ou t a quarter of an hour afte rwar d s M r . R o bi nson came runn i ng to t h e served r s i b d y e d M ir Bell and Horns, in a state of great alarm, and saying that his house was on fire. Mr. Rhoads and other persons im mediately ran to the spot, when, on Mr. Robinson, w h o was also intoxicated, opening the door, the passage was found to be in flames, which were extending themselves up the staircase. Mr. Rhoads instantly rushed in, and, with the assistance of his companions, tore down the paper hangings and extinguished the flames. After the smoke had some what subsided a melancholy spectacle presented itself, Mrs. Robinson being found lying at the bottom of the stairs quite dead, with the upper part of her person dreadfully burned. On going up stairs an elderly gentleman, who is insane, and of whom Mr. and Mrs. Robinson have for some time had the care, was found in bed in one of the upper rooms, in a state of insensibility and nearly suffocated by the dense smoke ; he, however, soon revived. It was most fortunate the fire was so soon discovered, or the consequences must have been far more lamentable than they have proved. M. de Lamartine, the French poet, has been suffer ing for some time from a painful luxation of the knee. There is, however, nothing alarming in the state of his lit ; only deprived of exercise, as the 'physicians have recommended the patient to remain in the most abso lute repose. EXTRAORDINARY SUICIDE.—On Tuesday an inquest was held at the Adam and Eve public-house, Rotherhithe, before W. CARTTAR, Esq., the Coroner for Surrey, on the body of Mr. William Goodwin, jun., aged 30, the son of a respectable tradesman in Paradise-street, who was found drowned in the Surrey Canal, near the Plough Bridge. The circumstances stated on the inquest are of a romantic character. The deceased, who up to that time was of a cheerful disposition, about three years ago contracted an acquaintance with a young lady whose parents reside in Bermondsey. Their affections were mutual, but their union was opposed by the friends of the lady, who con sidered his situation in life inferior to hers. In a fit of despair the young lady put an end to her existence by hanging herself, and her lover was by this melancholy oc currence almost driven to distraction, and, it appears, never recovered his self-possession. He wore mourning for up wards of a year, and his manner was reserved and me lancholy. Soon afterwards his father was thrown out of his gig, and suffered such injury from the accident that his life was for a long time despaired of, and about the same time his mother was attacked by a serious illness, which deprived her of the use of her limbs. These misfortunes appeared to have increased the deceased's despondency to a most alarming extent. About three months ago, he, how ever, attended the wedding of his youngest sister, and gave a handsome sum towards her marriage portion. and at the earnest solicitation of the bride and bridegroom he joined the wedding party on an excursion to Gravesend, where it was agreed they should spend the honeymoon. The - desceased appeared, howeier, to have no relish for the pleasures with which he was surrounded, and left his sister and friends to return to town in the Medway steamer. During the passage there was an alarm among the passengers that a man was overboard. The steamer was instantly stopped, and, by the praiseworthy exertions of Captain Turner and his crew, Mr. Goodwin was taken out of the water in an apparently life less state. There was much difference of opinion amongst the passengers as to whether Mr. Goodwin had fallen into the River by accident, or thrown himself in. It was seve ral weeks before he recovered from the effects of his im mersion, and he remained till his recovery at the house of his brother, a tradesman, in Southwark. On his return home, he found his sister, who had so lately been married, labouring under a dangerous illness she had contracted by sleeping in the draft at one of the boarding-houses at Gravesend. She died on Thursday, the 10th instant, and on the melancholy news being related to her brother, he appeared much dejected ; he left his house the same evening, and was not seen after. On the following day it was ascertained that he had been observed the previous even ing proceeding to the Plough-bridge, with some iron weights in his possession. A 14Ib and two 71b weights were shortly afterwards missed from his father's warehouse. After much time spent in searching in all directions for the de ceased, on Sunday it was determined to drag the canal, and the deceased's body was then found near the Plough-bridge, with a 141 b weight attached to it. The unfortunate man was attired in the same suit of mourning he had so long worn for his bethrothed, but which he had not worn for many months previous. There could be no doubt but the death of his sister, to whom he was fondly attached, had tended to augment that mental depression of which he had been so long the subject, and had induced him to commit the rash act, under the mistaken idea of ending his life and miseries together. The deceased was much beloved by his family and respected by his friends, and the circumstances attending his death has created feelings of deep interest amongst the inhabitants of Rotherhithe. The jury, after expressing their sympathy with the friends of the deceased, returned a verdict of—" Temporary de rangement." At the Deptford Petty Sessions yesterday Mary 211‘Carthy was charged by Pearce, a cheesemonger, re siding in High-street, Deptford, with having stolen in his shop, between nine and ten o'clock on Saturday night last, a large Cheshire cheese, weighing nearly thirty pounds. Tze prosecutor having noticed that the prisoner was longer in his shop than is usual, having only purchased a small quan tity of bacon, his suspicions were aroused, and on watching her he saw her take the cheese under her shawl, which was af terwards found on her person. The prisoner pleaded that she had mistaken the cheese for the bacon. She was com mitted. It having been for some time past in contemplation to present the Marquis of Breadalbane with a piece of plate in testimony of the approbation of the Liberal electors of Perthshire of his services while Member for the county, Monday last was fixed on for the purpose, when a de putation of the conveners of the Election Committee pro ceeded to Taymouth Castle, where they were sumptuously entertained. The plate was presented by the Hon. Fox Malik. It consists of a target, a broad sword, a dirk, and a case of pistols. The shield is of beautifully wrough t gilt silver. A. double cable moulding surrounds it at the edge, a wreath of flowers being betwixt the mouldings. The boss of the shield has a dead ground, ornamented with enriched studs. On the middle, in beautifully wrought relief, are the arms of Breadalbane—the galleyed shield, the boar-head crest, and stag supporters of the Campbells. The claymore is a fine old Ferara, re-fitted with a splendid gilt hilt and scabbard. The dirk is of a very rich and beautiful work manship. The pistols are of blued steel, inlaid with gold ; on the one side is a Marquis's coronet, on the other the boar-head crest. The inscription runs thus :—" This Shield is presented to the Most Noble John Campbell, Marquis of Breadalbane, Earl of Ormelie, Viscount Glenorchy, &c., by the Liberal Electors of Perthshire, as a testimony of their esteem for his private worth, their admiration of his public principles, and their gratitude for his distinguished services in the great cause of Liberty, and as their Representative in their first Reformed Parliament of the United Kingdom, to which he was triumphantly returned on the 29th of December, 1832, by a Majority of 574." THE HARVEST.—We are now in the middle of November, and have still to report the progress of the harvest in the upland districts. This week corn cutting has been going briskly forward at the Path of Condie, and in other places among the Ochills there is a good deal to cut as well as to carry. Both oats and barley are better crops than could have been anticipated after so long a pro tracted season and extreme weather. The barley which was not secured before October storm, will, of course, be unfit for malting ; but at the advanced price of oats and potatoes, and the general bad quality of the latter since the frost, barley is likely to be greatly in request for domestic consumption.—Perth Courier. SEAL HUNTING IN CAITHNESS.—This truly manly and exciting sport has, it appears, been lately pur sued with considerable success at Latheron-wheel, in the parish of Latheron, in this county. On Tuesday, the Ist inst., a party, consisting of the Hon. Mr. Fitzroy, son of the Earl of Southampton, Major Frazer, Captain Sinclair of Lybster, the Hon. Robert Dunbar, and Mr. B. Wemyss, resolved on trying this adventurous amusement, and hav ing procured a boat, sallied out at midnight for the purpose of waging war with the monsters of the deep in the enemy's own citadels—the caverns that abound on the coast of Latheron-wheel estate. Some of these caverns are very narrow and difficult of access, many of them running not less than 300 feet under ground, and to m a ke this sportin teresting, no inconsiderable share of both courage and dexterity is required on the part of those engaged in it. In the course of this expedition the party visited no less than seven caves, in one of which were found no fewer than tea seals ; here the engagement was truly fierce and sanguinary, and the scene wild and terrific in the extreme. The despe rate though unavailing struggles o f the monsters ; their sa vage howling ; the noise of the assailants' bludgeons, as they dealt out death ; the cries of each combatant, as success or defeat crowned his labours, joined to the hi deous glare of the torch light that was required to explore the caverns, formed altogether a scene of the most pic turesque description, and greatly more than compensated the amateurs for the dangers and risks they had to encounter. On one occasion the Hon. Mr. Fitzroy had a narrow escape ; he attacked an enormous seal, which he was on the point of felling to the ground, when the torch-light, which one of the seamen held, was suddenly extinguished, and the animal, in m aking a desperate plunge to regain its native element, very n early threw him i n t o th e wa t er ; i n this predicament his friend Major Frazer came to his assis tance, but notwithstanding their united efforts, the animal finally made its r etreat good. M uc h d anger ex i sts from t h e rapidity with which the water runs out of the caves, and if the weather be not particularly favourable, it requires every precaution on the seaman's part to prevent the boats being crushed or upset. Major Frazer, not aware of this circum stance, had at one time leaped out of the boat before it was pro perly secured,. and was expose d t o th e d ange r of its run ning over him, had no t one o f t h e seamen , a t considerable risk to himself, re scue d hi m f rom hi s perilous situation. This was the first time that either Mr. Fitzroy or Major Frazer had enjoyed this animating sport, and . both expre sse d themselves hi g hly d e li g ht e d w ith th e expedition. The p ar t y did not return to Mr. Dunbar's, at Latherton-wheel House, until eight o'clock next morning. The seamen considered that the seals would at the very least produce thirty pints of oil each.--John o'Groat's Journal. Tuesday evening a conversazione was heldl of this Institution, Wellington-terrace, \Vat road. The spacious and beautiful rooms of the institdrolici were crowded with a most respectable company of both sexes, and we may say of all ages, parents and children, all enjoying, with evident delight, the feast of reason so taste fully provided for them. The walls of the rooms were covered with pictures both of ancient and modern masters, and tables placed along the centre of the principal room con tained a great variety of the specimens of vegetable and mi neral kingdoms. After the company had spent some time in examining the various articles placed for their inspection, a paper was read by Mr. Handey, the Hon. Secretary, on the character and influence of the fair sex in the production of human happiness, in which the celebrated poets who have most distinguished themselves in paying homage to Heaven's last, best work, were invoked, and their warmest praises as warmly responded to by the male portion of the auditory, and probably very sincerely assented to by the other. Cer tain it is, that all appeared highly gratified, and Mr. Han dcy's eloquence, which united sound philosophy with warm hearted feeling, was loudly applauded. At intervals, after the reading of the first paper, Mr. Francis and Mr. Handey entertained the company with some excellent singing, accompanying their voices on the piano : the performances of both gentlemen were highly, and certainly very deservedly, applauded. Mr. Cowper delivered a discourse on Terra Cotta vases, a great variety of which he exhibited from Pendon's manu factory, Adelaide-street. He explained, by figures, how they could be made of the most graceful forms, by all the lines being portions of ovals, and showed how tastefully they could be painted to represent any form of sculpture—a beautiful art, in which ladies could speedily acquire great excellence. Dr. Truman, in conclusion, delivered a discourse on the utility of such institutions ; the great attractions they had for the young, and the great facility they afforded for the acquisition of scientific knowledge. In such institutions the lecturers generally confined their instructions to a more li mited portion of science than was the practice in our public institutions ; and as this division of scientifi c instruction was also the practice of the most celebrated schools on the Con tinent, the practice of these voluntary institutions in this country would probably lead to an improved system of ge neral instruction, under the sanction of Government. An other great advantage of such institutions would be, that they would become repositories for standard works of lite rature and the arts. He had it from good authority, 'that the Americans are now making the greatest exertions to procure from Europe the greatest possible quantity of such works, for the establishment of literary and scientific insti tutions in all their towns. He hailed with delight the pro gress of knowledge amongst a people descended from our selves—the countrymen of Franklin, of Washington Irving, and of Cooper—a country, too, which had lately sent us one of the greatest actors of the age, and he wished that their highly honourable exertions in the pursuits of litera ture and science might operate as a stimulus to our own. The company, which consisted of between 400 and 500, throughout the evening presented a most happy and joyous appearance, and were evidently highly gratified by all that they heard and all they saw ; for, as Mr. Handey well observed in the introduction of his address, the managers had provided pictures for the eyes, articles of vertu for the, connoisseur, treasures of the animaal and vegetable king doms for the scientific, and concord of sweet sounds for the delight of all.

He was immediately conveyed to his hotel, and it was at first thought that his wound was not mortal, but this hope proved vain, as he has since expired. The deceased was 25 years of age, and a lieutenant of artillery. His rash act is attributed to his having received an order for his exchange to another regiment, quartered at Strasburg.— Galignani's Messenger.
