By the means of an English majority in the Imperial Parliament the two great measures for the ad vancement of popular liberty—the Parliamentary Re form Act and the Corporation Reform Act—were cur tailed in all their important provisions when framed for Ireland, and the rights of the people of Ireland have been incessantly violated by a succession of ar bitrary and unconstitutional laws, passed on various oc casions since the union by the same power. In proof of this I may call to recollection the numerous Insur rection Acts, and Acts for the partial infliction of mar tial law, the Whig Coercion Act, and the other Coer cion Acts which afterwards succeeded it, the Arms Acts, and more especially the last Arms Act, which I may designate by way of distinction, the branding Act. Disturbances have frequently occurred in Eng land, but never was she treated by her own representa tives as her representatives treated Ireland. I ask, do not such acts and proceedings as these prove that Ireland has no available representation against the danger of sepa"ate legislation by the Imperial Parliament, and con sequently no security for her rights if England has the will to invade them ? In such cases the representation of Ireland in only adequate to give to England a colour able pretext to say—" these are the laws of an Imperial Parliament." Thus Ireland holds her liberties at the will of England, " and to depend on the will of another country is the definition:of slavery—" (Grattan). SUPPLEMENT TO UIIE'S DICTIONARY.

EXAMPLES. HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO NORTHAMPTON. Bonus Bonus in added. Cash. At a public meeting of the county of Northampton, convened by the High Sheriff, held on Saturday, and nu merously attended by noblemen and gentlemen, the fol lowing address having been moved by the Marquis of Exeter, and seconded by the Marquis of Northampton, was unanimously adopted : " To the Queen's Most Excellent Majesty. " We, your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects, the nobility, gentry, elerey, and other inhabitants of the county of Northampton, in county meeting assembled, beg to approach your Majesty with the expression of the high gratification we feel at the honour your Ma jesty has done us in visiting our county. We take this opportunity of assuring your Majesty that, however much your Majesty's conduct has endeared you to every class of your Majesty's subjects, none can feel more strongly than we do the most ardent wishes for your Majesty's health and happiness; and it is our most earnest prayer to the Almighty that he may be pleased to grant to your Majesty a long and peaceful reign, during the whole course of which you may witness the increasing prosperity of your people." The Marquis of NORTHAMPTON, in seconding the ad dress, said, the fact of her Majesty honouring their county with her presence would have been quite sufficient to call forth an unanimous feeling of loyalty.—(Cheers.) When her Majesty came into the county, she would un doubtedly feel great pleasure at finding herself traversing the halls of the descendant of the great minister of Queen Elisabeth.—(Hear, hear.) She would feel proud that she, also a female Sovereign, was visiting the halls once inhabited by one of the greatest statesmen that ever swayed the destinies of this country ; and her Majesty would feel, and the country would feel, it to have been a proud thing that a female Sovereign should have been able to command the services of such a man as Lord Burleigh.—(Cheers.) Her Majesty . had always been most anxious to forward the prosperity of the manufac tures of the country by patronising them in her court, therefore that would be a reason for those among them who resided at Northampton greeting her Majesty with a cordial welcome. With respect to those who fol lowed the most important of all arts, that of agriculture, it was needless for him to say that Prince Albert was the first and greatest farmer in the land—first in station, and most anxious for the promotion of agriculture. Earl SPENCER proposed a vote of thanks to the High Sheriff for'having been kind enough to call that meet ing, and said it must be most gratifying to every inhabi tant of the county that an address to her Majesty on the present occasion should have been unanimously adopted by the great county of Northampton. Her Ma jesty, as it had been well said by his noble friend who had preceded him, deserved the attachment and devo tion, as she had them, of the people of this country. — (Loud cheers.) It was a good thing that the country should congratulate itself that her Majesty was in the habit of going amongst her people, to see what they were—to see the people over whom she had the honour to reign—a people attached to her by their loyalty gene rally, but particularly attached to her in consequence of her exemplary conduct.—(Loud cheers.) It was also important that the Sovereign of this country should see what it was that so endeared her to her subjects ; it was desirable that, being, as she was, an example of domestic life, she should see that to that princi pally she owed her popularity.—(Loud cheers.) But it was not only as an example of domestic life that she had shown herself one of the best monarchs that had ever blessed this country, it was also in her political capacity that she had signally distinguished herself.— (Cheers.) He did not recollect in the history of this country any reign in which it had not been possible for some surmises to be stated against the Sovereign as to his conduct to his administrations. They had seen her Majesty, however, in the beginning of her reign surrounded by an administration in which she seemed to have the most perfect confidence. That administration, by the will of Parliament and of the nation, was dismissed, and another placed in its stead. Had there been the slightest symp tom of want of confidence in the present administration? On the contrary, had it not been proved during the whole course of its existence that her Majesty had given to it the most careful and complete support?—(Cheers.) This was the conduct that endeared her to the hearts of a free people.—(Cheers.) It was very possible that there might have been some Sovereigns who knew that such a course ought to have been pursued, but be did not recollect any occasion when the administration had been changed that room had not been given for some surmises relative to the conduct of the Sovereign. With such principles, connected with such general good conduct as her Majesty had shown, it was very desirable that she should see what the effect of it was upon her subjects, that she might be encouraged—though she wanted no encourage -- t e — n dt pre e o ar d r s hereve to i n t h e the e o s p a l m e me of l t i h n i e s c o o f u n c t o r n y d , uacntdwhi madec h her a guardian and a blessing to them all.—(Cheers.) Such being his feelings with respect to what they ought to do, and their having voted the address unanimously, he thought there was every reason why they should concur in thanking the High Sheriff for calling that meeting.—(Cheers.) The HIGH SILERIFF returned thanks. Three cheers were then given for the Queen, and three cheers for the Marquis of Exeter, and the meeting sepa rated. A meeting of the Mayor, magistrates, aldermen, and other authorities of the borough of Northampton, has also been held, at which the same feelings of loyalty and unanimity were displayed. The following is the address voted. : " TO THE QUEEN'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. " The humble address of the Mayor, magistrates, alder men, and councillors of the borough of Northampton. " Most Gracious Sovereign, We. your Majesty's faithful subjects, the Mayor, magistrates, aldermen, and councillors of the borough of Northampton, beg leave to approach your Majesty to hail your Majesty's auspicious presence in this ancient borough.

Secondly—The laws passed by the Imperial Parlia ment for the regulation of our local institutions are gene rally full of blunders, and betray the grossest ignorance of our requirements. I need not enter here into a parti cular enumeration—l give one as a specimen of all : I shall name the Poor-law Act, and I know well that the strongest friends of the principle of a poor.law will unite in the assertion of the unsuitableness of its provisions to the wants of Ireland. In cases where this law works well, it arises not from the law itself, but from the guardians exercising a judicious administrative authority, which bends its austere provisions to the circumstances of the poor. Third—The effects of the union, and of imperial le gislation, are manifested no less injuriously with regard to the financial relations of the two countries. The pro portion of debt and contribution to the expenditure im posed by the Act of Union to be paid by Ireland were so excessively beyond her powers, that in a few years she became bankrupt. England then consolidated the exchequers. An act of bankruptcy cannot again occur on the part of Ireland, separately from England ; but, nevertheless, the drain is still going on beyond the means of Ireland to bear. The revenue is drawn, not from the luxuries of wealth, but from the means by which an impoverished people support existence—not to be spent in Ireland, to circulate and stimulate indus try—but to augment the riches of England ; and thus this drain, drawn, I may say, from the blood of Ireland, produces the most injurious effects on the progress of improvement, and increases the poverty of her people. In consequence of the poverty created by these causes, Ireland is et present exempted from certain descriptions of taxation imposed upon England and Scotland, more particularly the assessed taxes and the income-tax ; but is it to be believed, that if we continue on a system of joint expenditure, that exemption will be allowed to ex exist ? Will the English and Scotch Members agree that the establishments of Ireland should be paid out of the imperial funds, and that she should not be sub jected to a like system of taxation with themselves ? Is it just or fair to expect it ? There is nothing but their mercy and the mercy of the Minister to prevent it. What could your puny Irish representation in the Im perial Parliament do to stem the evil ? You now plead at the bar of England in forma pauperi—your plea is at present admitted ; but the moment Ireland shows symptoms of rising prosperity, her progress will be crushed by these new inflictions of taxation from which you can only be saved by a new arrangement of the financial relations of the two countries. I ask, are the landed aristocracy, and the impoverished trading interests, prepared to endure the consequences of the assimilation of taxation ? If you are prepared to submit to this infliction, then continue your slumbers—indulge in your happy state of inaction—stifle every rising thought about your country's rights or interests ; but, mark, when the tax-gatherer knocks at your door, let us hear no murmur of complaint. You will have no right to complain. If you shall suffer evil, you will only suffer the just recompense of your own deserts. Fourth—The enormous expenses and other difficulties in procuring Acts for local improvements in the Imperial Parliament, are such as a poor country like Ireland can not compass—therefore, improvement, and its necessary accompaniment, employment, is virtually stopped by this came alone.

One personal visit only is necessary to effect apermanent cure Fifth—The improvements of a poor country, where capital does not abound, would require some support from the revenues of the State. The riches of England enable the Imperial Parliament to refuse this aid to England, and, consequently, it is refused to Ireland, although the circumstances are so totally different. Sixth—l would put it to Irishmen of all sects, can they deny the evils which have arisen to Ireland from the centralization system, as far as it has been carried out, awl the increase of evil which will be produced by its completion ? Do they not see the public boards and public offices transferred one by one to the metropolis of England, drawing away to that one great vortex the whole expenditure of the country? That great evil of Ireland. the absenteeism of its landed proprietors, has been immeasurably increased; not only pleasure, but the emoluments and duties of office, draw them away from their country. The public expenditure in every depart ment of the state thus becomes a source of exhaustion to Ireland. But this is not all; the centralizers will exert every power to put down the demand of Ireland for local institutions by increased consolidation. They know that so long as any one separate institution remains to distinguish Dublin from any provincial town in England, the demand for a local legislature cannot be resisted by argument. Your Lord Lieutenancy will be abolished— the business of your executive will be done by some English-Irish secretary in London—your separate courts of law will be abolished—lreland will cease to have a metropolis. Dublin, without the stimulent of official expenditure—without commerce or manufacture—with out the means of support or employment for its popula tion—will sink into that state of wretchedness and de cline which has been the fate of many splendid cities, whose ruins are now the only indications of their former prosperity. Seventh—Conservatives talk of the evils of agitation ; they say that agitation is the bane of Ireland. I ask them what produces agitation ? Discontent. What produces discontent ? The feeling of suffering by the people, and the impression that there is no effective organ to declare their wants or wishes. Can any one say that the representation of Ireland in the Imperial Parliament is an effective organ for that purpose ? I may here refer to the words of Grattan, so forcibly applicable to this part of the subject :—" What ! when you banish Parlia ment, do you banish the people ? Do you extinguish the sentiment—do you extinguish the soul ? Do you put out the spirit of liberty when you destroy that organ, constitutional and capacious, through which that spirit may be safely and discreetly conveyed ? What is the excellence of our Constitution ? It provides an organ . . . . through which the humour of society may pass away without preying on the vitals. Parliament is that body where the whole intellect of the country may be collected, and where the spirit of patriotism, of li berty, and of ambition, may all act under the: control of that intellect, and under the check of publicity and observation." I maintain this is what Ireland requires. Can any impartial person say, that the interests of Ire , land have been properly attended to by the Imperial Parliament ?—and can it be denied that agitation has produced an attention to those interests which could not have been otherwise obtained ? I desire, then, a legiti mate organ of expression for the declaration of the people's voice—l desire a local Legislature in the two Houses of which full effect will be given to the voice of the people, modified by the moral weight of a resident aristocracy. Eighth—l would ask, can it be asserted that the Im perial Parliament is capable of properly transacting all the immense mass of public and private business which is now imposed upon it, unless some new arrangement of that business be effected ? The establishment of local legislation for Ireland would be one of the most effective means of diminishing the laborious duties of the Impe rial Parliament. Ninth—Assimilation of laws, which is essential to consolidation and real union, can only take place where there is assimilation of circumstances. Are the circum stances of England and Ireland similar ? England, the highest country in the world in commerce and manufac tures—lreland among the lowest ; the former a com mercial country—the latter an agricultural. Can the identical same laws be suitable to two countries where the difference of their condition is so great ? Can the same system and amount of taxation be borne, which must be the unavoidable result of a junction of expendi ture ? Will the same laws and institutions answer for a country in the incipient move towards prosperity, which apply to the matured condition of England's wealth ? It might as well be said the same quality and quantity of food would be fit for the infant and the adult ; the food which would be fit for the man would kill the child. Such will be the fate of Ireland if she be not treated with the indulgent care which her feeble advances to wards prosperity require, by giving her every encourage ment which is not inconsistent with the interests of the empire at large, and with that perfect freedom of com mercial intercourses between every part and portion of the United Kingdom whieb is essential to the peace and prosperity of the whole. Tenth—The truth of the foregoing positions will be proved by a reference to the present condition of this country. Ido not propose to enter into the hackneyed line of argument with regard to the advance in trade and manufacture, or in national rights, which hare occurred at different periods, both under the existence of the Irish Parliament and the Imperial Parliament ; no candid man can deny that good and evil measures have emanated from both Parliaments, lout good ones only when the external power of the public mind has coerced assent. I care not about statistics of commerce and manufactures as indexes of national prosperity, unless it be proved that the condition of the mass of the population corres pond with these indications, Now, what is the coptii- ADVERTISEMENTS INSERTED in ALL THE THREE PILFERS, Morning Noon, and Night, thereby insuring a TOWN and COUNTRY CIRCULATION, at ONE CHARGI.

Mr. Sergeant Rowley, in addressing the quarter ses sions grand jury at Thurles, on Wednerday, thus alluded to the recent murders in this county •—" I feel I ought not to pass over, without remark, the crimes—the many heavy and dreadful crimes—which have been lately per petrated within this riding of the county. If they do not carry with themselves a strong persuasion to the well disposed portion of the community, of the necessity, upon their part to awaken from their criminal in thfferatee—l will not say sympathy with the murderers —and vigorously to co-operate in the detection of the guilty delinquents, I cannot think that any means I might employ could be more effective for that purpose. How many are there who would themselves shrink from the crime of murder, think it no harm to conceal facts which might help to the de tection of offenders if promptly stated to the official authorities ? Such persons may weakly imagine that it tends to their own security not to mix themselves up with such matters—they are as foolish as criminal in thinking so. No man knows, if daring villians gain confidence from impugnity, how soon the blows may reach himself ; for every transaction of life, no matter how trivial, may lead to such crimes, and has been in this county a sufficient motive to the murderer to strike his victim and carry out his sanguinary proscription. Instances are well known of men who have refused to impart information they were capable of giving, falling in their turn victims to that system of crime which, if aid th in checkingeyha had not andtactu puttingallyp down.omotl promoted, they did not at least m be very desirable, with a v i ew to preven t the gentlemen,continuance of such violent crimes, to endeavour to trace the motives how far those cause s (if proper to be rem which ascertain may w h a b t e a s u u s p e p s o m s eady haveh apv produced dprod u ced them—to should be set aside, or be so q ua lia e d as not to st i mu late to violence may see and blood the passi ons o f t h e people. I w ill not say that those who enter u p on suc h d i scuss i ons n actuated by the b es t intentions, and with a perfectotb e desire, by the modes to which they resort, to dry up or to exhaust the springs of crime ; but I can not help thinking that it is not quite wise, while the act of murder is still recent, to raise up collateral discussions on the general causes of crime, or the par ticular motive that may be supposed to have produced the offence in question. Explanations at such a moment are too likely to be interpreted as a justification of the dreadful act, and not only to give additional boldness and confidence to the ill-disposed, but tend in some measure to keep back others from aiding in the detection of the criminal, by throwinv , round him the false colours of re tributive justice. Whilst the pursuit is hot, the only cry should be against the murderer—and it appears to me that clinical lectures on the exercise of rights over the mangled remains of the unhappy victim, are, to say the least of them, ill- t i med, and may be very mis chievous." FEDERALISM: LETTER FROM MR. CRAWFORD —LOCAL LEGISLATION FOR IRELAND. TO THE EDITOR OP THE DUBLIN EYENING POST. Sir,—lt seems to me that the time is now arrived when it becomes the imperative duty of those who are of opinion that local legislation is necessary for Ireland, openlyt o state their o pi n i ons an d t h e ir views, and the means by which t h at object can be obta i ne d cons i s t en tly with the safety of imperial connexion : the principal of local legislati on , combined with imperial supremacy, is that by which I conceive both these objects can be effected. This question has never been raised before the public mind ; but it is misunderstood by many, and misrepresented by others, while its friends leave it in the hands of its opponents to be tortured and twisted at their will and pleasure, without seeming to have the moral courage to avow their faith, or to defend its truth. I am of opinion that those who hold that Ireland requires the application of this principle are doing deep injustice to their country by shrinking at this period from its advocacy. I conceive they ought to assume an independent position, supporting their views with honest plainness, unfettered by any attempt to acquire doubtful support ; but opening the question to the adherence of all sincere friends of their country, of every party and denomination, who can see in it a mode of ameliorating her condition or securing her rights. Desirous, then, to throw off from myself the stigma of now deserting a cause which I have long ad vocated, I respectfully submit to the friends of Ireland the following observations: — I shall, as a preliminary step, refer to the practical evils which have arisen, and which it may be appre hended will hereafter occur, from the existing state of the connexion between Great Britain and Ireland. I shall class them under the following heads :- 1. Violation and insecurity of civil rights. 2. Imperfect and ignorant legislation regarding our local institutions and financial capabilities. 3 . The danger and the probability of an assimilation of taxation. 4. Expenses and difficulties in seeking and obtaining Acts for improvement. 5. Insufficiency of aid from the State for public works in Ireland. G. Evils of centralisation, and probable increase of them. 7. Inadequacy of the Irish representation in the Im perial Parliament to express the wants and feelings of the people of Ireland. 8. Inadequacy of the Imperial Parliament to do the work required, under the present system of Parliamen tary business. 9. Different e of circumstances between England and Ireland, rendering assimilation impracticable and inex pedient. 10. Proof of the foregoing, from the present condition of Ireland. 11. Present danger to the connexion of the two countries. First—There is no security for civil rights. The union was based on the theory of identification, but that identification was not provided for by the Act of Union —that identification does not exist—that identification cannot exist between countries whose circumstances are in every respect so dissimilar as those of England and Ireland. From this cause separate legislation became necessary ; and how were we treated ? Just as every country must expect to be treated, and I will say, deserves to be treated, who place the power of separate legislation in the hands of the representatives of another NEW WORK BY PROFESSOR LOW.

The Amphion, 42-gun frigate, now on the stocks, is being lengthened by the bow, by Mr. White, of Cowes, and is to be fitted with a screw propeller, with a mode rate sized steam-engine. She is getting ready for early commission. In Harbour—Victory, Excellent, Victoria and Albert, Nautilus, Volcano, Comet, Fearless, Dwarf, and Echo, steamers, and Diligence, naval transport. Captain Drinkwater Bethune, who is appointed on a special mission to Borneo, has received his instructions from the Admiralty, and will proceed forthwith. Captain 'l'. Waters, Royal Marines, has retired upon full pay, after 33 years' service. Mr. Edwards, Master, 11. N., and the Chief Officer of the Clyde Royal Mail steam-packet, died of yellow fever on board that vessel on the 6th of October. The third officer, Mr. Jellicoe, was also attacked ; he has re turned invalided in the Trent. A vessel at Scilly reports having spoken the Experi mental Squadron on the 31st ult., in long. 9. 30, but brings no report of their proceedings. The Admiralty have issued orders to build a new wooden second.class steam-frigate with paddle-wheels, at Woolwich, on the plan, we believe, of Mr Fincham. tion of Ireland after 43 years' existence of the union ? We have the statement of the poor inquiry commis sioners, that in a population of about 8,000,000 of souls, there is an amount of pattperied population to the ex ! tent of not less than 2,300,000. This statement may be somewhat exaggerated in figures, but it is undoubtedly a true description of the general condition of Ireland : our people are unemployed whilst our extended natural re • sources are undeveloped—our waste lands unimproved, and our richest lands in a state of not so much as half production. We are without manufactures or capital of our own, and nothing but a scanty pittance of the super abundance of English capital has yet crossed the channel which separates us, whilst it is applied with such profuse extravagance within the limits of her own ter ritory. We have agrarian combination among the small occupiers of the soil for the purpose of procuring that justice by their own laws which the laws and insti tutions of the state do not afford them the means of obtaining. We have a general spirit of discontent against British rule, which rule is only at this moment maintained by the power of military occupation. We have no identification of laws, feelings, right; or inte rests—all the great features of condition and social rela tions which can form characters of distinction between any two countries exist with relation to England and Ireland. The sea which intervenes between us, and which must ever check the freedom and speed of com munication attainable on land, still proclaims, as in the days of Grattan, that we are not, and cannot be identified as one country, and every reference to past and present circumstances proves that Ireland must depend mainly upon her own exertions and her own resources for the advancement of her prosperity. Eleventh—l would, in the last place, put this ques tion to the friends of British and Irish connexion. Is that connexion now in a state of security, or in a con dition which can be beneficial to either country ? Is it not a parchment connexion, liable to be torn asunder, whenever it shall be the object of any foreign State, hostile to Britain, to open the rent ? Does it not, is its present state, render Ireland the weakness, instead of the strength of Britain ? Is it not wasting her own re sources to hold Ireland in this way, instead of adding those derivable from Ireland to her Treasury ? Is it not necessary that some means should be taken to strengthen the ties of friendly union, which alone can become strong when the connexion they bind together is founded on the basis of equal interests, and mutual benefits and con fidence ? The foregoing short review of the circumstances and condition of Ireland, will, I trust, be considered sufficient to warrant me in the conclusion (and in calling on others to join me in that conclusion) that some change should be adopted to remedy the evils complained of. What that change should be I shall endeavour to point out in a succeeding section of these observations. WILLIAM SHARMAN CRAWFORD. Crawfordsbu O rn,NF DUBLIN uI3N 7, 1844. CITY REGISTRY.

BRIGHTON, SUNDAT.—Between ten and eleven o'clock last night a light was observed in the north, which was evidently the reflection from a large fire in the neigh bourhood, and half an hour afterwards news arrived that a barn on Mr. Gorringe's farm at Withdean, two miles and a half from Brighton, was on fire. On inquiry at the farm, this afternoon, we learrilthet the fire was seen by several persons about the same time, when intelligence was immediately conveyed to Mr. Gorringe. The villagers turned out, and every man seemed to exert himself to the utmost to quell the flames, which in a few minutes had completely enveloped the barn, the roof of which immediately fell in with a crash Owing to the extreme drought of the summer, huh water could be obtained, and the only thing to be don. was to endeavour to save the corn in the barn, and tc prevent the extension of the fire to the adjoining farts buildings. The latter object was accomplished, but the former almost entirely failed, not more than about a waggon load of wheat-sheaves being saved, and these are so much scorched as to be nearly worthless. The fire made rapid progress, and nothing is now left of the barn but the stone walls. The whole of the contents of the barn are now (six o'clock P.m.) a mass of smoulder ing fire. The farm belongs to the wife of Captain Ogle, son of Sir Charles Ogle, who hall insured the premises in the Phoenix ; the farming stock of the tenant was also insured in the County Fire-office. The damage is esti mated at 5004 We regret to add that no doubt exists that the fire was the work of an incendiary. Mr. Gorringe's men, on reaching the barn, discovered the flames through a gap in the door, where one of the planks of which it was composed had been wrenched off. A young man, named Lidbetter, a wheelwright in the village, and son of the bailiff of Mr. W. Stanford, in the adjoining village of Preston, was one of the first to carry the intel ligence to Mr. Gorringe ; and he stated, that having gone out of the road to get under some trees for shelter from a storm, two men passed him in a direction from the barn to the high road at the moment he discovered the fire ; and that on seeing him they threatened him with pistols, if he dared to follow them. It appears, however, that there are no trees capable of affording shelter at the spot in question ; and the strangeness of his story, the improbability of two men who had fired a building going from it towards a frequented road, when the downs in the opposite direction afforded an almost certain means of escaping detection, together with the circumstance of his passing several cottages which stand next the fire, to give the alarm at those more distant, combined to raise a suspicion to his disadvantage. Two of the East Sussex constabulary arriving during the progress of the fire, Mr. Gorringe desired Lidbetter to repeat his statement to them ; and on his doing so, they took him into custody, and conveyed him to Brighton, where he is now locked up, awaiting an examination be fore the magistrates. Mr. Gorringe invited all the men who had rendered assistance at the fire to dine at his house to-day I and after dinner explained to them, that if any one had fired the barn out of malice towards him or the owner, he had entirely failed in his object, inasmuch as the whole of the property was insured. NOMINATION OF SHERIFFS.—A. Privy Council will be held in the Court of Exchequer this afternoon, when the nomination of gentlemen to serve the office of Sheriff in the different counties of England will take place. ENGLISH AND IRISH WOMEN.—The Irish ladies have always been celebrated for their beauty. They are taller than those of England. I thought, when in Brighton a short time ago, that a greater amount of beauty, considering the number present, could not be anywhere met with, provided the ladies were brought accidentally together, than what I witnessed, evening after evening, on the pier and parade of that place. I will not say that among the same number of Irish ladies, brought by chance together, you would see a greater proportion of fine faces. The claims of the ladies in the one country and the other are, in this respect, so nicely balanced, that it would be difficult to say which of the two countries carries off the palm. But this, I am sure, will be admitted by every unprejudiced Englishman who has walked, on a fine afternoon in August, on the promenade at Kingston Harbour, that he never, in any part of England, saw, in an assemblage of women of the same extent, an equal number of fine figures. There is, too, in the carriage and manner of the better order of the Irish ladies generally, a marked superiority to the Eng lish women. There is comparatively little in Ireland of that cold reserve and distant demeanour which strike foreigners as so unfavourable a characteristic of our English women, The Irish ladies have much of the ease, gracefulness, and vivacity of the French, without any of their exceptionable qualities. There is not in the world a more modest race of women than the Irish ; a remark which equally applies to all ranks and classes among their.—bapressions of Ireland and the Irish. lIER MAJESTY'S STAG HOLTI4PS.----The Royal pack this year consists of 53 couple, 30 couple of which are old and 17 young hounds—via., 1 couple, 8 years old ; 1 eouplc, t, years ; 2 couple, 5 years ; i couple, 4 years ; 9 couple, 3 years ; 16 couple, 2 years ; and 17 couple, 1 year old.

About 100 gentle men, including Lord Rosslyn, the master of the Royal pack, were at the meet on Friday morning, at New Lodge, Winkfield, where an untried deer was uncarted between eleven and twelve o'clock, going away to Wink field Park, on nearly to the village, where It doubled to the right on the left of Hawtharn-hill. Thence it made for Warfield Chureh, and was taken at Pott-bridge, near the residence of Lady Malcolm, after a run, over a country of nine miles generally heavy, of nearly an hour. No fixture has yet been made for the by-day on Wednes day next. The meet on Monday will be at the Stag and Hounds, Binfield ti b ucl on leriday, at Littleton, near pintos SOUTHAMPTON, Nov. 9.—The Oriental 'Company's steam-ship the Tagus, Capt. Brookes, arrived in the docks at 3 o'clock P.M. this day, and landed the Gibral tar and Peninsular mails, which will be forwarded to London by the night mail train. Her dates are—Git raltar, Nov. Ist ; Cadiz, 2d ; Lisbon, sth ; Vigo, 6th. From the state of the weather the Tagus was unable to communicate with Oporto. The Dutch squadron was still at Gibraltar, as also her Majesty's .sloop Scout and Savage brig ; Danish brig of war and one steamer ; one Swedish corvette and one schooner ; one Norwegian and one Austrian corvette. At Cadiz, a Spanish line-of battle ship, 74 guns, and one French vessel, 12 guns ; at Lisbon, one French brig of war, Volage, 10 guns. Nov. 8, at noon, in lat. 48 15, long. 6 37, the Tagus saw a line-of-battle ship steering to the eastward. The Tagus has ten passengers, and a full cargo of fruit. The Eleanor, Captain Wickham, arrived in the docks at noon this day from Fayal, with a large fruit cargo, g, great portia of which was forwarded by railway this day, thus arriving in London on an averave of four days sooner than vessels going round by sea. The Eleanor left St. Michael's on the 27th ultimo, where the Qttiver and the William were loading, and expected to sail in a few days for this port. The fruit crops at Fayal are very abundant, and ready nearly three weeks earlier this season than for many years past. The railway company are about building waggons, in which fruit Cat I be loaded and conveyed to the Locdon station, and then, by a crane, be lifted off the railway trucks, and put upon carriage wheel, and transmitted to the fruit warehouses in the City without unloading and reloading into barges or waggons, thus preserving the fruit from damage. SUNDAY, IOTtt, NooN.:-The Oriental Comp - any's ship the Oriental, Captain Soys, has , arrived at the Mother bank. The East India and China mails are landed, and will be forwarded by this night's mail train. She has 102 passengers, and a full cargo of silk. The Oriental is expected to be released from quarantine on Tuesday next. THE ANTI-CORN LAW LEAGUE. This influential body is about to resume its meet ings at Covent-garden Theatre, and with tenfold vigour. During its temporary repose from active agitation, monopolist writers have been loud in their gratulations on its presumed discomfiture. A different prospect is now opening up to them. The recent proceedings at Manchester ha v e r ouse d their bile, and. some of the Pro-Corn-law organs have indulged in language of the grossest character when discussing this subject. No mind that is no t thorountased. by ignorance and bigotry can do otherwise than reject with disgust the food thus offered by those who seek to pander to the worst passions and prejudices of their readers. We will not do the Conservative party the injustice to suppose that either such language, or the vile spirit that prompts it, can be in any degree acceptable to them. Th ese remarks apply more especially to the provincial press, the London journal; with one exception (the Morning Herald) appearing to be alive to the vast influence the League is exert ing. That journal, and its joint stock companion the Standard, has for some time past been loudly proclaim ing the death of the League. This has at length brought forth the following reply from that courtly organ of the monopolists, the Morning Post :-- " Our Contemporary has, within the last six Months, repeatedly proclaimed that the League had die d a natu ral death. Not only, however, has its spirit been with out interruption active in the economical policy of our Conservative Alinisters, but the League itself—the ex tinguished League—the League which, according to the Herald, all men despised and had abandoned, is once more in the field of agitation. The leaders of the con spiracy have made their influence felt in more than one half of the borough registration courts in the kingdom ; and they are now preparing to wrest from landowners that preponderating power which they have hitherto exercised in counties. Does the Herald deny that the League possesses the power of multiplying, almost without limit, forty-shilling freeholders in a majority of English counties ? - No. Our Contemporary will not venture to deny that the dead League is snore full of vitality than ever." For a monopolist print this is pretty well. At all events, it shows that the Post possesses some of the honesty which the Morning Herald has long ago dis carded. For the comfort of both, it may be stated that active exertions will be made by the League during the present season ; and it will be fortunate for the bread-taxers, if they do not find the it fate sealed much sooner than they anticipate. So much for the defunct League.—Lancaster Guardian. CONVICTION 0F A MILLOWNER-- ACCIDENT BY MACHINERY. MANCHESTER, SATURDAY.--The first conviction of millowner in a penalty for injuries received by a party in a mill, owing to the machinery being left in an inse cure state, took place this day at the Borough Court, before Messrs. D. Maude and S. Walker, two of the magistrates for this division, and considerable interest attached to the case, in consequence of the question raised being whether a person not a worker in a cotton mill could not receive compensation fur injuries received from unprotected machinery. Mr. David Waddington, cotton-manufacturer, of Com mercial -street Mill, was summoned by Mr. Armstrong, Superintendent of Factories, to show cause why he should not be convicted in a penalty of not mote than 100/., nor less than 10L, for not having secarely boxed off and girded a s certain upright shaft in his weaving establishment, in consequence of which a girl, named Emma Hurst, had received serious bodily injuries. The prosecution was brought by order of the Secre tary of State, and Mr. Leonard Horner, the Factory In spector, was on the bench. The facts of the case were as follows :—The mother of Emma Hurst and her brother were power-loom weavers, employed in No. 5 room of Mr. Waddington's mill, and the girl, who is twelve years old, was in the habit of coming to the mill every afternoon with her mother's and brother's tea. On the afternoon of the Bth of October the girl came as usual with her mother's tea, and shortly afterwards was heard to utter a piercing scream, and was observed to be fast bound by her clothes to an upright shaft, and turning round at a frightful rate. home time elapsed before she was released, and not before she had received severe injuries about her and face. Mr. Bagshaw, of the firm of Bagshaw and Stevenson. solicitors, who appeared for Mr. Waddington, took a preliminary objection to the proceeding, his client not having had four clear days' notice, according to the Act of Parliament. He next drew the attention of the Court, to the Act of Parliament. He contended that no penalty could be recovered in this instance, the intention of The Act of' Parliament being to protect mill-workers, and not persons who might intrude themselves illtg ti cotton mill. He suggested that the only clause to which his ought to be called upon to address himself was that which referred to the not fencing off the machinery, and for which the penalty was not less than 5/. nor more than 20L The 60th section used the words " any per son;" but he apprehended that the clause must be con strued strictly, and be taken to mean " any persons ear ployed in a mill." Mr. MAUDa said, that looking at the clauses prior to the 60th, it would appear that the Legislature did not contemplate that any person not being a worker would be present in a mill ; but, looking at the 60th section, he could not suppose that the words "any person " were mere surplusage. It appeared to him that the 59th section was for the purpose of protecting the factory workers, and the 60th for the purpose of protectisc " other" persons. Emma Hurst was then called, and she stated, that on the day in question she had taken her mother's tea into the mill, and on passing the upright shaft she was caught by the clothes and twisted round in the manner des cribed, and received various injuries. On her cross examination she stated, that there was a tin casing round the shaft, but it was split open at the side, the opening being about the breadth of her hand, and it was through this opening that her clothes were caught by the shaft. She denied that she had been playing with the shaft. Mr. B. Fothergill, one of the managers at the ez:ten sive works of Messrs. Sharp, Brothers, machine makers of this town, stated that on the sth instant he went with Mr. Horner to Mr. Waddington's mill, and inspected the shaft in question. It was then performing 68 revo lutions per minute. He considered a tin casing for such a shaft as that to be very insecure, as it was constantly liable to damage. The tin casing had since been re placed by a wooden casing, Some otherwitnesses were called, who spoke to the in security of the casing. The COURT having intimated an cpinion that they thought that the defendant was liable to the penalty under the 60th section, Mr. Bagshaw urged that this was the first case, and the Act of Parliament was not generally known. Mr. MAUDR said that the opinion of the Bench was, that there ought to be a conviction, with a penalty of 201., and it was to be understood that such was the de cision of the - Court; but he would consider the law a little more narrowly, and Mr. Bagshaw would know the result in the course of a few days. MILFORD.—The Berthally, Jones, from Portmadoc to Newcastle, has arrived at this port, having narrowly escaped being shipwrecked. It appears that on the morning of the 29th ult., she bore up for Ramsey Sound, in consequence of the wind blowing hard right a-head, where she remained till the next day; when, in endea vouring to get under weigh, she missed stays and struck on a sunken rock, where she stuck for five hours. The weather being moderate she came off, with comparatively trifling damage to keel and planks. It having been deemed advisable to get the sloop George, Shearer, from Newport to Dublin, laden with coals, under weigh, being too near the ground and striking heavily, during the gale of the Ist instant, it was accordingly done—but missing stays, she came ashore under the Old Battery, where she bilged and filled with water. The cargo has since been got out, and the vessel brougqt into Ilubberstone Pill to bo repaired.—Cambrzan. APPREHENSION OF A MURDERER. — This morning about nine o'clock, Mr. John M•Laren, sheriff's officer, apprehended in Washington-street, Anderston, John M'Lauchlane, lately a plasterer's labourer, the man who, in the month of September last, assaulted a person named Dunn or Dunion, with a reaping -hook, during a quarrel, in a harvest-field on the farm of Alton, in the parish of Catnpsie, whereby the weapon in question en tered the body of Dunn below the arm, and the point of which touching his heart, he died almost instantaneously. The prisoner, who has not been seen or heard of since the fatal affray, although every search has been made for him, was quite cool and collected when apprehended by Mr. M'Laren, and intimated that it was his intention at any rate to give himself up to justice. • He ',vas conveyed by the officer on his way to Stirling Gaol, by the eleven o'clock train on the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway.— Glasym Saturday Post,
