TO THE WORTHY AND INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF THE WARD OF PORTSOKEN. gENTLEAtIiN, THE Court of Aldermen have this day rejected my claim to be sworn in as Alderman of your Ward, and declared my election void. Into the motives which have led to this step I do not inquire ; it is sufflcicmt to say that the act has been done, and that your rights have been assailed, and your liberty to elect has been an nulled. I had fondly hoped that the example of the Crown, the proceed ings and appointments of her Majesty's Government, the progress of legislation, the influence of public opinion, and the ameliorations of the law, would have induced the Court of Aldermen to abstain from insisting on a course repugnant to my feelings, and which was not required by law. I had also anticipated that bigotry and intolerance which have been repudiated by , public opinion, would not have found their last strongholds in the Court of Aldermen Had I chosen to pursue a devious course (which was pointed out to me), and by a mean and paltry subterfuge subscribed to what my conscience rejected, I might now havebeen your Alderman; but believing, as I de, that it is the duty of all men in authority to set an example of the highest principles of honour and integrity, I dia_ dained to accept office on such terms. One lesson, however, will be gained by my failure. It will de monstrate the folly and wickedness of all tests like those insisted upon by the Court of Aldermen, and show that, while they exclude the conscientious, they offer no impediment to the admission of the bad and unscrupulous to office. These, however, are the remains of a false and vicious system of legislation, which the indignant voice of a free and intelligent community will soon sweep away. To you who honoured me with your confidence by electing me to so responsible an office, my heartfelt thanks are due. I shall never forget your noble conduct, nor the strenuous efforts you made in my behalf. To those enlightened members of the Court of Aldermen who did themselves the honour and me the favour, to assert your rights and my pretensions, lam greatly indebted. I hope they will long live to adorn the station they occupy, and to vindicate and support the great cause of eivil and religious liberty. Gentlemen, the contest is not over; it is removed only to another tribunal, where I am sure to meet with more able judges, and more temperate expositors of the law. Till their decision be obtained, I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your faithful servant, Shorter's-court, Oct. 15,1644. DAVID SALOMONS. ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION.

CHERTSEY, THURSDAY.—The annual meeting of this Association took place to-day at Chertsey. The ploughing match took place on the land of Mr. Wells, an extensive farmer at Addlestone, near Chertsey. Thirty-five ploughs competed in the different classes, and during the morning Sir H. Fletcher, the Chairman of the Committee of Management, distri buted the prizes to those persons who were entitled to them by long servitude. The company afterwards assembled at the Crown Inn. The chair was, taken by Mr. Trotter, M.P. There were also present—Sir H. Fletcher, Colonel Challoner, G. Best, Esq., It. Sharpe, Esq., J. T Briscoe, Esq., Colonel Sumner, T. A. Ward, Esq., Colonel Cavendish, and nearly a hundred of the principal farmers of the district. The usual loyal toasts having been proposed and cordially responded to, Mr. BRISCOE gave the healths of the " Members for that Division of the County," and he observed, that although the rules of the Association wisely prevented them from discussing politics, still he must be per mitted to say that although persons might differ from both in political opinions, it was impossible for any one to deny that they had always acted conscien tiously, and that they were second to none in loyalty to their Queen, and in their desire to uphold for all classes those rights to which, by the Constitution of the country, they were entitled.—(Cheers.) Mr. TROTTER, in returning thanks, said it was a source of unmingled satisfaction to him, that the more he mixed with his friends in the county—and by friends he meant those who were opposed to him in political opinions, as well as those who agreed with him—the more kindness he received, and he assured them it should be his study to retain their good opinion. When he retired from the representation of that division of the county, he hoped that he would be respected by all classes of his constituents, and that they would al ways remember him as a man and a gentleman.— (Cheers.) They were aware what his political opinions were, and whether they were right or wrong, he would merely assert that his conscientious opinion was, that the views he advocated were calculated for the benefit of his country.—(Hear, hear.) No private feeling ever actuated him ; and when he retired, he trusted he should leave the high office he had held unstained and unblemished.—(Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then proposed " Success to the Agricultural Associations of West Surrey." He ob served that a good deal had recently been said, not only in that county, but in other parts of the king dom, upon the subject of the allotment system ; and, without discussing the question, he must express his opinion that nothing could be more advantageous, or better calculated to improve the condition of the agri cultural labourer, than to let him have a piece of land of proper dimensions attached to his cottage. It necessarily tended to keep him at home with his family, and by his own fireside, and this was, in itself, a most important consideration. Their chief object was to improve the condition of the labouring classes ; and although these matters were, at present, merely in their infancy, there could be very little doubt, f rom the strong feeling in the public mind upon the sub ject, that, eventually, a great deal would be done to improve the condition, and increase the comforts, of that class. Colonel SUMNER, in responding to the toast, as a member of the Guildford Association, said that, in his parish of Clandon, he had tried the allotment system with very great success, and there was hardly a labourer in the parish who had not half an acre of land. At first it was given to them to make use of as a garden, but at length they grew corn, and the re sult was most satisfactory. There was not one of the tenants who, when he came to pay his rent, did not express his gratitude for being allowed to have the land ; and in his (Colonel Sumner's) opinion, the grant of a piece of land to the labourer was the greatest boon a landlord. coal I confer upon him.—(Cheers.) The next toast was the health of Colonel Challoner, and " Success to the Agricultural Society of England." Colonel CHALLONER returned thanks, and said he was gratified to perceive that the exertions of the Royal Society were appreciated, and that there was a very general opinion in all parts of the country which he hail:visited, that it had done a great deal of good. He believed it had effected a great deal of good, and that it had shown a beacon to which the intelligence and talent of England was now mainly directed. Up to a very recent period there had been but little scientific talent employed upon agriculture, or very little pains taken in its improvement. Manufactures had the advantage of scientific knowledge, but it was not so with agriculture ' and he did not doubt but if it had, there would have been an equal improvement. The improvement on agricultural implements had already were very great, and it would be handed down as a matter of tradition that six horses had been used to a plough. They now found they could do with two horses just as well, and it was mainly owing to the exertions of the Royal Agricultural Society, and those exhibitions at Derby and other places, that this had been brought" about. Each horse cost the farmer 251. a year, and of course the saving by having three horses less would be 751. a year, which was not an unimportant amount in these times.—(Hear, hear.) A great'object of these associations was to improve the character of the labourers, and enable them to get good servants ; but he was afraid this would never be accomplished until some better means of giving them a proper education were devised. He did not wish to give offenee,but he must express his opinion that in this part of the country the operations of husbandry were not very carefully conducted. Their hedges were not well trimmed. They had a great man dead hedges, and he was aware that any practical farmer would say that nothing could be more unprofitable than such a state of things. He must also tell them that, in his opinion, the ploughing was not done so well this year as it was two years ago, and they must not think them selves at all perfect in -ploughing. Now that agri culture was thrown upon its own resources, it could only rise like a Phcenix from the ashes that had been thrown upon it during the last two or three years by the united exertions of labourers, servants, and land lords. He admitted thatthe landlord was bound to take his full share of the liability—he should assist the tenant to drain, and should find the money to enable him to do so.—(Hear, hear.) He would conclude by proposing " Success to Agriculture, Manufactures, and Commerce ;" and he mentioned agriculture first, because he considered it the chief stone of the edifice, and, unless it was prosperous, none of the other great interests of the country could be so.—(Cheers.) The healths of the judges, Messrs. Newman, Jupp, and Lambert, were then given. Mr. NEWMAN, in returning thanks, said that, as a practical agriculturist, he must beg leave to differ from the opinion expressed by Colonel Challoner upon the subject of the quality of the ploughing, and to state that he considered the ploughing was very good. It had, likewise, been said, that it was very bad farm% ing not to have the hedges trimmed, and keeping dead hedges. He quite agreed with that, but he should go a little farther, and ask whether, if the farmers trimmed the hedges, the landlords would fell the timber.—(Hear, hear.) He had been a farmer all his life, and was well aware of the injury that was done to the land by trees. If they looked at the low price of timber, he was satis fied that it could never pay to plant it upon arable land, and that, if it was not done, it would be very beneficial to the tenant, and of course, ultimately; to the landlord. He quite agreed with the Hon. Gentle man who had stated that it was necessary for all classes connected with agriculture to exert them selves, the more particularly as, in addition to other difficulties, they now had steam to contend with.— (" Steam assists you," was here said by some one in the room.) He would tell them how steam operated against them. The railways had taken thousands of horses from the different roads, and thus the far mers not only lost some of their best customers for hay and straw, but at the same time compelled them to send to London for their manure, and, by the competition that was thus created, they had to pay a hundred per cent. more for it. He expressed his opinion that meadow land would not this year pay for labour, let alone rent and taxes. Mr. Newman con cluded by thanking the meeting for the kind manner in which the healths of the judges had been drank, and said they had no other view than to perform their duty impartially. Sir H. FLETCHER then proposed Mr. Edgell as the President for the ensuing year, and shortly after wards the meeting broke up. HOP INTELLIGENCE, WORCESTER, OCT. 16.—We have to note another qbick market on Saturday last, with a further advance upon last week's prices of 3s. per cwt., and the supply of about 1,400 p ockets was nearly cleared off-1,320 of new, and 13 of old hav ing passed the scales ; in addition to which, there were weighed in the week 1,086 pockets of new, and 81 of and high .

(Abridged from the Newcastle Advertiser.) On Tuesday evening a public dinner was given to William Ilutt, Esq., M.P. for Gateshead, in the New Town Hall of that borough, which was attended by about one hundred of his constituents and other gentlemen. William Kenmir, Esq., the Mayor, presided, and the Vice-Chairman was George Hawks, Esq., J.P. On the right of the chair were William Hutt, Esq., M.P.; Saville Ogle, Esq., M.P. for South Northumberland ; Lord Howick, M.P. for Sunderland ; and William Cookson, Esq., Sheriff of Newcastle. On the left, William Ord, Esq , M.P. for Newcastle ; 11. Metcalfe, Esq., M.P. for Tynemouth ; T. C. Granger, Esq., M.P. for the city of Durham ; and Sir John Fife, Mayor of NeWcastle. After the removal of the cloth, the CHAIRMAN cave in succession, The Queen," "Prince Albert," " The Prince of Wales, and his Royal Brother and Sisters," and " The Queen Dowager and the rest of the Royal Family," all of which were drunk with great enthusiasm. The CHAIRMAN said he rose to propose the next toast with pleasure, because it was to do honour to a gentle man who had given his countenance to the company. It was to do honour to their representative in the House of Commons. If Mr. Hutt was not proud of his consti tuency—his constituency ought to be proud of him. He concluded by proposing " William Hutt, Esq., M.P., and thanks to him for the zealous manner in which he dis charges his duties as Member for this borough." The toast was received with tremendous cheering. Mr. HUTT said he was certain he need not assure the meeting he felt grateful for all the compliments he had received. Under any circumstances in which he could be placed, the congratulations of so many enlightened men must be a source of satisfaction, but in his present position, united with them by so many sympathies in private life, and by the important public obligations which united the representative to the constituent, he re cognised this testimonial of confidence and regard as one of the highest ambition. He would recur for a moment to the circumstances of this country, and to the state of political agitation which had existed for some years, when he first became connected with Gateshead. At that time the Conservatives were endeavouring to lay the foundation of their power, and by what means did they effect it ? It was by a system, if he might adopt a term used by Lord Morpeth in the House of Commons, of mendacious representation. The very Court was made use of to influence the minds of the people against the Liberal policy. Prejudices the most gross were set forth as undeniable truth ; passions scarcely compatible with public society were declared at the monster meet ings of the Conservatives ; and religious intolerance. against Catholic influence was declared to be the Chris tianity of the Church of England—the Reformed Church of this country. Nor was it possible to forget that the Throne itself and its occupant could scarcely be protected from their calumnies.—(Cheers.) Free trade, now the object of so much lip-worship, was attacked by every simpleton, and became the jest of every buffoon. Lords and Commons, clergymen and laymen, newspaper and pamphlet writers, all combined to resist free trade, and declare it a monstrous delusion of the Liberal party. After noticing one or two instances of Tory inconsis tency, Mr. llutt proceeded to state, that last session the Government had been brought to a dead lock—next, session the same state of things would be revived. It is their boast the Liberals were defeated. It is true the' Liberal party was defeated, but they can look back upon their course without remorse and repining. They could tell their opponents that their path was not strewed ; with broken promi s e s , and party dissimulation, or any' of those remnants of melancholy genius and energy , which they now exhibit. It mattered little who was in power, so long as they maintained those principles of civil, religious, and commercial freedom, for which they had contended. Let them secure those principles to direct the councils of the country, and it mattered little who was Minister. Let them pursue the simple objects they had in view, and although. they might not lead to honour and preferment, they would give prosperity to the country. Mr. Hutt resumed his seat amidst great, cheering, but immediately rose and said he had a toast to propose—" Prosperity to the Electors of Gateshead." Before doing so, he wished to give some explanation on the corn-laws, and be the interpreter of his own opi nions. In his first address to the electors of Gateshead, he said it was the true policy of this country to buy at the cheapest and sell at the dearest markets ; and he ; meant these words to be applied without exception. He (lid not mean to make any exception in favour of corn, cattle, or sugar. He might not believe that total and immediate repeal would be followed by a large importa tion of foreign grain, and a large reduction in our own market; and he might not believe, on the other hand, that the total repeal would cause a large tract of country to be abandoned, and a large number of persons added' to the distressed labour market of the coantry. He was quite prepared to apply the principle of free trade to every article of commerce, and he believed protecting duties to bo an absurdity, if they were not, at the same time, an attempt to plunder one man in order to l.amper. another. Ile did trust the great constituency he repre sented would not allow themselves to be made the tools of designing men, in order to throw confusion into their ranks. It was his wish to see Gateshead give the same example on the corn-laws it never failed to give on every other question. The toast was drunk with great applause. Mr. Alderman BROCKETT had much pleasure in pro posing the next toast. It was one that would be received , with approbation—" The healths of the Members for Sunderland." He believed they had done their duty, and were entitled to the hest thanks a liberal community could bestow. One of them was now present, who was entitled to high respect for his glorious conduct in the House of Commons.—(Loud cheers.) The mayor and himself were well acquainted with the history of Gates head, and they knew the part the Noble Lord's father took in behalf and in defence of their rights, and to see that they enjoyed the rights to which they were entitled. And independent of that, from the high respect they felt for Lord Ilowick, they ought to feel proud of meeting , him and telling him how thankful they were. He said ; without flattering, and no one who knew him would ac cuse him of flattery, that he looked forward to the day when Lord How ick would fill the situation his sire once held, and have an opportunity of fighting hand to hand for those principles for which his father fought and con (piered.—(Loud cheers.) Lord Howicx, on rising to return thanks, was loudly cheered. He felt deeply the honour, but at the same time he was aware the toast was not meant as personal, but to mark their sense of the conduct he had endeavoured to adhere to. Tho worthy alderman had shown the in terests of Sunderland and of Gateshead were the same. This was indeed true, for both towns were depending for prosperity on some great branch of the trade of the country. Since he represented Sunderland, it had been his anxious wish to do whatever lay in his power to pro mote the prosperity of that town, by following those views which Mr. Hutt had adverted to, in endeavouring to relieve British commerce ofrestrictions. He expressed his satisfaction at being present, and he came simply to give a tribute of respect to his worthy friend. No one deserved it more. He had the honour of sitting in Par liament with him, and he firmly believed there was no one more honest, more independent, or possessed of more zeal. Mr. llutt had many claims of gratitude, but there were two classes of subjects of great interest and import ance, on both of which he had taken an active and use ful part. The one, in advocating the policy of com mercial freedom ; and another—a subject of less im portance, but still of great moment—colonization on enlightened principles. He could not help remarking that those were two subjects of the utmost importance, because they were symptoms that men's minds were aroused to the necessity of looking to the means of improving the condition of the great body of the people. The state of the people, which for many years was calculated to create alarm, has now become such that the careful inquirer must feel the necessity of some measure for their improvement. When he looked to the south of England, to the misery not only of one time, but of habitual continuance, amongst the agricultural population ; and when he turned his eyes to the manufacturing districts, he there saw that they had but lately experienced a prevailing period of depression—most wide prevailing distress—and he could not but feel that those periods of distress must occur at particular times, unless a vigorous attempt was made to put the commerce of the country on a sure and extended basis. This could be done by one means, and one means only, and that was to liberate commerce from its shackles. —(Loud cheers.) Mr. Hutt had expressed the opinion that protective duties were misnamed. He would term them duties proposed to enable one set of men to take a part of the produce of labour ; for let him ask how these duties operated ? If it were not for this systeM of pro hibitory duties it is probable the same amount of the produce of English labour which is exchanged for eighty tons of the coffees of Jamaica and Ceylon, would receive 100 tons from Brazil. The effect of prohibiting that exchange was to take twenty or thirty per cent. of labour to give it to some other interest. And when this system was applied to other branches of trade, when they found the same system in operation, and the producers of.goods prevented exchanging them with others, what can be theutl effect but damage to the remuneration of labour ? firmly believed that if they wished toavcohi a d n s g o e m d e o g n re a a li t calamity, this system must be spe edil y be cause, while every other • matters, but especial ' e out of the corn laws. corn-Jawsdu; ties are most mischievous , th e y ari se l s ly b . t coloniza wth description rea rdt o o f he protective _ ho thought f the popu not one of those w tion. He was would but shake off the shackles bound Lord Howick then referred to the su jec o lation too great. If the y that maintain its present population, but the no t only able to the arm of industry, this country was num b e rs of some years added. He thought colonization was most valuable, as affording a field for the enterptise of youth, who, in former years, sought occupation amidst the dangers of. war. He wished to see those energetic spirits employed in competing with the wilderness, in extending the dominion of civilization over the utter most regions of the earth—in spreading the name, the language, the civilization, and the religion of England, to the furthest ends of the world.—(Loud cheers.) He had mentioned those two subjects more particularly, be cause they seemed to be those Mr. Hutt had given most attention to, and his most useful services. He apolo gised for having entered so largely into these matters, but he did so from, feeling that they had not met merely as a source of enjoyment, but to afford them an opportu nity of expressing their opinions on public matters, with a view to ascertain what was for the public interest, so that they might be prepared, when the proper time ar rived, Lo promote the carrying out that policy which they believed to be the b est . His Lordship concluded amidst loud cheering, by proposing the health of the Chairman, whom lie complimented for the excellent manner in which lie had discharged the duties of the evening. The CuatamAx briefly returned thanks. Mr. CARR proposed the health of Mr. Saville Ogle. He was a young Member,', but none was more zealous in the cause they had all at heart.—(Cheers.) Mr. OGLE returned thanks.—Several other toasts were drunk, after which the company separated. MEETING to PETITION AGAINST THE INCOME-TAX. (From the Warwick Advertiser.) The following requisition to the churchwardens and overseers of Leamington Priors, having received a very considerable number of signatures, a public meeting was convened at the Town-hall, at twelve o'clock on Thurs day morning last, to take it into consideration : " We, the undersigned inhabitants of Leamington Priors, respectfully request you to call an early public meeting of the inhabitants, to take into consideration the present objectionable mode of assessing the income tax, and the very inconvenient place of appeal against all taxes ; and also the propriety of petitioning the Legis lature against the continuance of the tax upon income, based, as in many cases it now is, on the most unjust and oppressive principles." Upon the proposition of Mr. Stanley, seconded by Mr. Hackforth, Mr. Churchwarden OLDHAM was called 'to the chair, and after some pertinent observations, in which he pointed out the tyrannical and arbitrary conduct of the local commissioners of the income tax, he proposed the following resolution :—" That a petition to bath Houses of Parliament be presented from the inhabitants of Leamington Priors, expressive of their grievances under the operation of the income-tax, and praying for such prompt and effectual relief as the circumstances require." The resolution was seconded by Mr. STANLEY, and carried nnanimousiy. Mr. IL IlonEwrs moved, " That a Committee be ap pointed to word the petitions, and generally to superin tend and watch their progress." Seconded by Mr. lIACKFORTII, and carried una nimously. Mr. HACESORTII proposed that the petitions be signed by the chairman in behalf of the meeting, &c., which was seconded by Mr. Bird ; but Dr. Southam and other gentlemen fearing it might be looked upon as only an individual signature, Mr. Bird called the attention of the meeting to the subject. Mr. ROBERT! thought they ought to be signed by every individual and honest man in the town, an opinion in which the meeting appeared generally to coincide, therefore the following resolution was substituted . " That copies of the petitions, with sheets, be left at the libraries and pump-rooms, for the signatures of the in habitants, and that, when signed, the petition to the House of Lords shall be transmitted to the Farl of War wick, with a request that his Lordship would present the same ; and that a petition to the House of Commons be transmitted to the Members for the Southern Division of the county, with a similar request ; and that the sup port of the Members of the county be respectfully soh cited."—Carried. Mr. 11. ROBERTS then addressed the meeting in et spirited speech, stating that he should not have been the first to take so prominent a part in the matter, had he not felt deeply the object they had in view ; and ex pressing his abhorrence at the abominable and disgrace ful tax upon which they had met to express their dissa tisfaction, he concluded by' moving, " That a deputa tion be appointed to wait on the commissioners of taxes of the Hundred of Knightlovv, respectfully to request them to hold all future meetings for appeals (as far as regards Leamington) at the Public-office in Leamington, instead of its being continued at the Black Dog, at Stretton." Mr. BIRD seconded the motion. Mr. R. RUSSELL spoke warmly against the tax, stating' that bad debts were not allowed, and that they were called upon to pay a tax upon money which they never received, and declared that, although he had always been a property-tax-man, he would never again vote for member of Parliament who would not pledge himself to oppose the income-tax. • Mr. ROBERTS observed that he thought such was the general feeling throughout the.country. Upon the proposition of Mr. CLARKE, seconded by Mr. BATEMAN, it was resolved that the churchwardens and overseers be requested to form the deputation. A vote of thanks was then proposed by Mr. 'F. MAR SHALL, SCCOBded by Mr. I'. SPENCER, and carried unanimously, to Mr. Oldham, for his able Conduct in the chair, after which the meeting separated. IRELAND. CIIANGES AT DUBLIN CASTLE. DUBLIN, OCT. 17.—The removal of Mr. Brewster from the offica of advising counsel to the Irish GoVOrn• ment, is again spoken of with much more confidence. It is stated that the Irish Attorney-General and Mr. Brewster have had a serious quarrel, and that the latter is negotiating for a Mastership in Chancery, it bring understood that one or two of the present Masters are anxious to retire before the opening of November term. A provincial Tory paper, the Limerick Chronicle, states that Mr. Corballis, Q.C., a Catholic barrister, who conducted the recent palice inquiry at Dublin Cas tle, is to succeed Mr. Brewster, as advising counsel to the Government. EVICTION OF TENANTRY. A Mallow correspondent of the Cork Examiner gives a detailed statement of the expulsion of tenantry from two estates in that quarter. The total number is 51 fa milies, comprising 498 human beings. THE REGISTRIES. CITY OF STrYERFORD.—On Monday the numbers ad mitted were—Liberals, 53 ; Tories, 8. COUNTY OF LIMERICK.—At Rathkeale, on Monday, 2 Liberals were admitted. ➢ir. Smith O'Brien at tended. The Secretary at T W Il a E r, AR r l‘ T rY ho . mas Fremantle, left Dublin on Tuesday. lie h as b een i n I re l an d this last week on the object of erecting buildings for Divine ser rice for the military in Dublin, and it is supposed that capacious chapels will be built on the ground in the front of the Royal Barracks. Sir Thomas was accom panied by the Chaplain-General, Rev. Mr. Gleig, and Major Jebb, who has given plans for the erection of depots for military defaulters. The Secretary at War has stated that the intended military brevet will not take place at present. THE POLICE—ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE. The Cork Examiner gives the following extraordinary case which occurred at the sessions of Mallow, in that county. Here a common policeman takes upon himself the office of a judge, and actually abuses a jury whose verdict did not square with his notion of law:— " Six men named Madden were given in charge for an assault arising out of a disputed right to cut turf on a bog, and on the jury re-entering their box, after con sidering their verdict, they were accosted by a police man, who inquired whether they had agreed to their verdict ? To which one of the jurors replied, We have agreed to the acquittal of four.' The policeman then said, ' What kind of a verdict is that for you to ?' 'find " Mr. R. B. Barry—How dare such a fellow as you interfere ? Please you worship, 1 objected in the morn ing to the practice of allowing policemen into the jury box as:unconstitutional, and now here is one of those fel lows interfering with the verdict of the jury. If we live in a free country, will such conduct be longer permitted? " The sensation created in court was so intense, and the uproar occasioned by the announcement so great, that it was impossible to hear the observations of the court, but the barrister was understood to censure the conduct of the policeman in very strong language." ATTEMPT TO SINK VESSELS IN LIMERICK.—We are much gratified in having to announce that the exertions made by Mr. Steele, in co-operation with the local authorities, to bring the perpetrators ,of this daring out rage to justice, are most likely to prove successful. On Monday the Mayor received information on oath against Peter Liddane, the man first arrested on suspicion. This new information leaves little doubt of the accused being a principal in the diabolical plot. Liddane being out on bail to appear when called on, Sergeant Reidy was de puted to execute the warrant for his re-apprehension, in the discharge of which duty some important eircum - stances unexpectedly came out, which, it is hoped, will bring to light every particular connected with this re volting deed. Peter Liddane is fully committed by the Mayor, and at present there is a strong prima facie case for a jury.—Limerick Chronicle. PROVINCIAL COLLEGES IN IRELAND.—In consequente of the declaration of Sir Robert Peel respecting provin cial colleges, at the close of the last session of Parlia ment, a meeting of the committee was held on Tuesday at the Cork Institution; James Roche, Esq., J.P., chair man, presiding. There were also present Daniel Leahy, Esq., D.L., D. Callaghan, Esq., M.P., W. Clear, Esq., Alderman T. Lyons, Dr. D. Bullen, Dr. Harvey, Rev. W. O'Sullivan, W. Keleher, Esq., and R. Dowden (RD, Esq.

LARGE OTTERS.—That otters plentifully abound in the streams and their tributaries of this neighbour hood, there is abundant evidence. On Saturday last, while a few individuals were engaged in cutting wood on the banks of the Eden, near to Edenbank, they were not a little surprised to observe two large full-grown otters (apparently male and female) come out from the foot of the tree at which they had applied the axe, and very coolly take to the water, under whose surface they sud denly disappeared. The trunk of the tree on examina tion was found hollowed out to such an extent that a man could easily sit upright in it, and must have proved a very comfortable abode to these amphibious animals.-- Kelso Chronicle.

[ADvEansamm.]—A POOR MAN'S LIFE SAVED BY HOLLOWAY'S PlLLS.—Jeremiah Laughlin, a porter about the quays of Dublin, was afflicted for years with shortness of breath, spitting of phlegm, night perspira tions, and general weakness of body, a want of appetite, sick head-ache, besides suffering much from the liver. This man was in the second stage of consumption, and not expected to live three months, when he commenced the use of Holloway's wonderful Pills, and by their means alone he is now as strong, as hale, and as well as ever he was in his life. Sold (also Holloway's Ointment) at the Establishment of Professor Holloway, 244, Strand (where advice may be had gratis), and by almost all respectable vendors of medicine throughout the civilised world. MUNIFICENT DONATION.—Mr. Sergeant Bompas, who died suddenly a short time since, loft a widow and a large family in somewhat indifferent circumstances ; but his professional brethren esteemed him so highly that a subscription was entered into for the benefit of his family, to which Sir Thomas Wilde contributed the princely sum of 1,000 guineas.—Derby Reporter. 401 1 1000 The division of profits is annual, and the seat will be made in De cember of the present year.

In 1841 the Company declared an addition to the Shareholders of one-half of their Stock, and also added a Beanie of 21. per cent. per annum, on the Sum Insured to all Policies of the Participating Class from the time they wets effected.
