Irish bar is dis tributed, upon these _important. trials, and to know the relative position of traversers and .prosecutors as to the counsel employed. Mr. O'Con ne ll , a h ost in himself; needs no description front us. Ile will address the jury in his own behalf. . Mr. Henn second to none in powe r , or in skill, an d whose authority is of great weight; Mr.'Whitesides, an earliest and enthusiastic ad vocate, who delights in . encountering difficulties that he may overcome them ; Mr. McDonough, learned, quick of perception, and always pre .pared ; Mr. Moore, a thorough lawyer, ener getic, and a sound logician; Mr. I. , 'itzgibbOn, clear - in argument, shrewd, bold, yet careful; Mic Pigott, cautious, doubting, but safe, certain, and powerful; Mr. Hatchell, penetrating, dex terous, and a terror to the prevaricator; Air. Monahan, able, quick in perception, and sound in expression; and though last, not least, Mr. Shell, whose eloquence will pierce the ears, and whose reasoning can reach the mind—fOrm the silk-gownsmen of the bar fin• the traversers. - Joined with them, as juniors, are Sir Colman O'Loglilin, Mr. Close, and Mr. O'llagan, all _of whom are learned, enthusiastic in their clients' cause, and fast rising in their procession. For the Crown, Mr. Smith, the Attorney-Ge aeral,-brave as a lion, spiteful as a cat—learned enough for ten lawyers, yet without judgment:or temper fi. one; Al r. Greene, the Solicitor-Ge neral, lucid, placid, sincere, and argumentative Mt. Brewster, powerful in sarcasm, severe, skil ful in manoeuvres, and learned iu quibbles; Mr. Holmes, whose talents are of fiat-rate order; Mr. Bennett, the leader•of the Munster bar and fit to lead it, by his mental talent s an d his 'kind disposition ; Alr. Napier, skilled in all the depths of pleading and legal proceedings; Mr. T om b, artful, crafty, and abl e; Mr. '' Freeman, Mr. Martley, Mr. Smiley, and Mr. Baker complete the array for the Crown. It is said that Sergeant Stock, the Liberal Member for Cashel, has also been retained. to aid the cause of the prosecution. Taking the two arrays, there can be no doubt that the preponderance of talent and of lee=al weight is on the side of the traversers; and if the issue depended on counsel and advocates, we should have no difficulty in tbretellino. the result.

Sllt,—.llaving read in your paper of Mon day last a letter addressed to you by " an expe rimental farmer," giving the results of . some experiments with different manures, made by himself on a film in his occupation in Cheshire, from which it appears that the use of guano was productive of injury to his pasture, and loss of crop, I am induced to offer a few observations, with a view to place the true cause of failure before your readers. I used.guano last year to a considerable extent, in top-dressing wheat, oats, and pasture:; ana, also, as the only manure for Swede turnips, and a portion of my potato crop, and found it emi nently successful in all these cases. On the pasture 1.3- cwt. of guano per statute acre, with an equal weight of ashes were strewed on the lfith of March, and produced an excellent crop, mowed on the 3a and 4th ofJuly. The wheat was dressed with similar quantities on the 17th March, and the oats with 1 cwt. of guano per acre, mixed with an equal quantity of coal ashes, which much facilitates even spreading. Both sorts of corn were strong in growth, of a vivid green, and yielded well. The potatoes were planted in rows, two feet apart, covered lightly with earth and guano, at the rate of 3 cwt. per acre, then strewed along the rows, which were afterwards fully covered in. The produce in this case rather exceeded that raised from the best dung from fattitur. pens. The tur n ip s e e d was drilled in, and 4 cwt. of guano per acre, with equal bulk of ashes, were then strewed upon the land, and the manure harrowed in with the seed. The crop was more than an average one, though the field was of very in ferior soil. The real cause of " experimental farmer's" failure was excess of guano, which contains 38.100 th of ammonia, and therut;ore no wonder that his pasture was burned, by an application of 5 cwt. per acre. Guano is a most valuable manure., but it requires to be used with judg ment, and where much is required should be put on in moderate quantities, at different times. One cwt. applied to pasture land in February, another in March, and the third in April, would he highly beneficial, but the 3 cwt. applied at one time would do harm. The work is best done in showery weather.---T am, Sir, &c. 1'.1311.0 JUSTITTAF.. Bath, .Jan. I', 1844, Will be . published on the nth inst. rrIT E ALBAN?AN; A TALE OF MODERN GREECE. A POEM.

" Oh! that's all," she rejoined; " thank you !" and, as she proceeded, resolved to try this " slape" ground against which she had. been cautioned ; but she had not proceeded far when the gardener's predictions were realised, and down she fell. " There !" shouted the noble owner of the grounds, who had observed all that had passed from a short distance, and who, on perceiving that no injury was done to his noble and young guest, laughed most heartily; "now your Royal llighness has received an explanation of the term 'slape,' both theoretically and practically !" " Yes my Lord," rejoined the good humoured Victoria, "I think I have. 1 shall never forget the word 'slave.' "—Fraser's Magazine. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN Slll,—llave the goodness to insert the follow ng, and you will oblige a subscriber and a lover 4 truth.' In the Second Edition of last Monday's Even g Sun, is a letter signed by one who styles " Experimentalist." Now I have lived the greatest part of my life within one mile of Cheadle Church, and am now Ming within three miles of the said church, but I never knew, be fore reading The Sun newspaper, that the whole parish contaMed one experimental farmer. As I know every farm in Cheadle, and also all the farmers, I was somewhat astonished on read ing the. account. I very much doubt the truth of his figures; and unless he can give the exact measure, and also the exact weight of each ex periment, I for one cannot believe him, nor am I alone in disbelieving him • and we farmers very naturally want to know win) " Experimentalist" is, that we may get infbrmation at home. An other reason why I and my brother farmers doubt the accuracy of his experiments is, the trifling cost of his manuring. I can tell " Experimentalist" that I paid is. per ton nett for stable dung in Manchester, to say nothing of the cost of carting, men's wages for spreading, wear and tear, &c. Now 15 tons at is. per ton will cost 51. 55., just the amount of " Experi mentalist's" experiment, No. 2. Is there no other expense than the, first cost, I would ask " Experimentalist ?" " Experimentalist" seems to be an enemy to guano, and that a public enemy too, or be would not have sent his glaring figures to London, where scarcely any one knows anything either about him or the state of farming in Cheadle. If he had not been its public.enemy, he would have been content to let his wonderful (query) experiments be buried. in oblivion. , But " Experimentalist" had better inquire of his neighbours for the value of guano as a manure as compared with stable dung and night soil, several of whom I know have used it two years with very satisfactory results, both upon grazing land and for turnips and potatoes, as also upon meadow land. 1 know sonic of them who could show him a sample of hay grown yi th guano against his extraordinary rich grape, as be calls it. Now, generally speaking, the heavier the crop is, the coarser it is—but that is directly con trary to 4 Experimentalises" experiment. This is another reason why I doubt the accuracy of his experiment. "Experimentalist" may vaunt forth his favourite muck to the world, but his boasting of having lost 211. by the experiment is ridi culous in the extreme ; and should he be in clined to send another account before the public, I would recommend him to be more explicit, and put his produce upon the scale, and not make a random calculation, just as his pre judiced mind may dictate. JOHN - BULL. Cheadle, Jan. 11, 1544. EASY AND EXPEDITIOUS METHOD OF LEARNING FRENCH.-Numerous as have been fhe methods intro duced from time to time for the speedy acquirement of the French language, none are to be compared with the very judicious and unpretending productions of Mons_ Le Page, which consist of " L'Echo de Paris," " Gift of Conversation," the " Last Step to French," and the "French Master for the Nursery," any one of which are sold separately, as they may be required by the progress of the pupil. • They are singularly concise and clear, and peculiarly calculated to obviate the necessity of sending young personi to France, at the risk of morals, to learn that which may as easily be acquired in this country, free from the baneful contamination ot' French manners. We arc happy to observe, from the number of editiors they have gone through, that they are getting into gene ral circulation, AGRICULTUAL IMPROVEMENTS.— A 'Long the many and varied improvements progressing in the district of South Hollastd, it is very gratifying to observe that the system of hollow or sub-soil draining is exciting general attention, anti will, when its admirable effects aro more widely known and ap preciated, secure its univerval ad o pti on .

THOMAS'S SUCCEDANEUM , Price 4s. fid. Patronised by her Majesty, his Royal Highess Prince Albert, and her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent. This valuable SUCCEDANEUM for STOPPING DE CAYED TEETH, however large the cavity is far superior to anything ever before used, as it is placed in the tooth in a soft state, without any pressure or pain, and in a short time becomes as hard as the enamel, and will remain firm in the tooth for many years, rendering extraction unnecessary. It arrests all further progress of decay, and renders them again useful in mastication. Prepared only by Mr. Thomas, Surgeon-Dentist, 68, Ber ners-street, Oxford-street. Price 4s. 6d., and will be sent free by post to any part of the kingdom. Mr. Thomas continues to supply the loss of teeth without springs or wires, and has introduced an entirely NEW DE SCRIPTION of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, which will be found very superior to all others, as they will never decay, nor become discoloured, and their perfect resemblance to nature defies detection even by the closest observer. This method does not require the extraction of any teeth or roots, or any painful operation whatever. The charges will be found much less than most Dentists.

Thus, suppose the ordinary premium for an assurance of 5001. to be 10/., the first payment by the half premium plan will be five guineas, being the one-half of the 101., and interest for the retained half; and if death should occur in the first year, the sum of 5001. would be paid less the 5/. retained. The assured may thus have the use for the first year of Si. ; for the second of 101. ; and so on till the end of the seventh year, when the retained sums, amounting to 35/., may either be repaid, or retained at Si. per cent. interest until death, when the 35/. would be subtracted from the 5001. then payable by the Company. To entitle persons to participate in the profits of the assured on the mutual principle applicable to the year from February, 1843, to February, 1844 (which profits are wholly divided amongst that class), Proposals of Assurance must be lodged at the Head-Office, or with any of the Agents of the Company, on or before Tuesday, the 6th of February next.
