It would b e superfluous on his part to dwell on the injurious results to the country from such a nefarious system—they b ad been. explained and commented upon frequently by the . alost illustrious of Irishmen. He felt bound to s y, that he conceived the Government had not exerted themselves to the extent they ought in the suppression of these societies. Mr. kaurice O'Connell had on one occasion furnished the Exe- 1 emive with evidence regarding the existence of these so- cieties, but the information he afforded was never acted upon. And, he would ask, why did not the detective police, who /4/vier° so active in other matters, exert themselves in this, I ° Lch was really useful, and not leave to the repeal wardens did e daty of ferreting out offenders? If the Orange Society I bc!tnot exist it would be a matter of no difficulty to suppress ibonism but the fact was, the people looked upon Rib ° li an is r ,. lll , a s a sort of protection against the lawlessness of th e df.ounders of this illegal so p siety should come from England ; its Perha,, s F he would not be very inaccurate if he attributed 104)t°Pagation to Sir James Graham, for he held that the 11 ; 1 ' 3 1 who would be so base as to open a letter would be the crclone! c ommitting any act, no matter how atrocious. In usion, he moved that every individual in Belfast or e x sewh ere, who belonged to the Ribbon conspiracy, should be expelled from the Association ; and in adopting this course , I FY were merely acting in self-defence, as the Association 'light b eict„ c ompromised by the illegal acts of its members.

Don Carlos is about to proceed to Rome, calling on his way at Genoa, in order to see two of his sons who have entered the service of the King of Sardinia. A private letter from Naples announces the death of Lady Co ventry, in that capital, on the Ilth inst. Her Ladyship died suddenly of apoplexy. M. Mendizabal, ex-Minister of Finance in Spain, and who, until recently, has been residing in Paris, arrived at Marseilles on Thurs day last. It appears by a return from the Light-house Commission, that France has at this time on her coasts and at tile mouths of her rivers 237 light-houses, or other buildings with lights, and that the cost o the erections and apparatus has amounted to 10,658,000 f. "Engineers of the army, navy, and pones et chausst•es, have," saysf the Constitutionnel, "for some time been engaged in surveying the coast of France, bounded by the ocean, and preparing plans of forts and other fortifications, for its complete defence from invasion ; and it is said the Minister of War will, in the course of the next session, present a Bill to the Chamber for a grant of credit sufficient to carry these projects into execution." A conflict has arisen between the Government of the Grand Duchy of Baden and the Archbishop of Friburg, similar to that which has existed between the Archbishop of Cologne and the Government of Prussia. The Prelate of Friburg having commanded his clergy not to celebrate any mixed marriages without his license as metropoli tan, the Government issued a declaration that this order was null and void, as being contrary to the usages of the country, Notwith standing this, the Archbishop has reiterated his order, and enjoined his clergy to a strict observance of it, under the faith of the oath they took when they were ordained, A Berne letter states that the canton of Argau is raising a second landwebr, tolerating the free corps, and allowing on its frontiers assemblages of such a nature as to give alarm to the canton of La cerue. Bale Campagne also, it is said, maintains an aggressive posi tion, and does all in its power to provoke a renewal of hostilities. In the meantime the cantons which think they are menaced are pre paring to defend themselves against attacks. General Sonneberg, having obtained leave of absence from the service of Naples, has re turned to Lucerne, to re-assume the chief command of the armed force. A considerable decline in Stocks and and .

A, 0 + 0 4 , SECOND EDITION. entnu LONDON, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1845 Some of the French journals, and especially those in favour of repeal, seem to regard as an important fact the protest signed by a number of the Catholic Bishops against the Irish Colleges Bill. The ground for this protest is alleged to be the want of any theological, or, as it has been also called, religious education in these establishments, and the Prelates consider this defect so important as to ins. , tify them in rendering every opposition to a measure which most other people rogard as a great boon to the sister coun try. In our opinion, the Bill will, nevertheless, work well; it observes strict impartiality with respect to diffe- rent principles of belief. Tad any other scheme been adopted, had the Government been so mad as to listen to the denunciations of Mr. O'CONNELL and Sir ROBERT Nous education could not have been carried on—there must have been a perpetual war of opinions, expressed in lectures, or, sermons, or harangues; one class would have been fighting against another, and, instead of reconciling the discordant elements of belief, or allowing them to remain in peace, the respective professors would have had the most of their time occupied in directing polemical discussion, and urging one sect against another. It is rare that religious sects listen to reason, still snore rare that conviction follows disputation, for we believe there is not one instance on record; and these colleges, in place of being the means of smoothing down asperities, weakening prejudices, and inculcating brotherly affection be tween Protestant and Catholic pupils, would have become a perfect Babel, and the greatest curse that could have been in flicted on Ireland. But, even supposing that the protesting Bishops had another plan in view, that impassable barriers, were to be established between the two sects, and that no, communication whatever was to take place between youths, who in after life would be eligible, with a few exceptions,' to all offices and appointments in the State, the' army, and the navy, would the evil be diminished ? Quite the contrary. There would still be an Irish, and an English, or Saxon, or Orange party, and additional incite ment would be given to the outcry against England, and the separation of the two countries. We can easily conceive, therefore, why the Goverment plan is obnoxious to the repealers. Its object is the amainamation of all classes of her MAJESTY'S subjects, independent of the blessings conferred by a liberal system of education. We regard, therefore, as a happy event the complete neutrality of the Government on this question, and the satisfaction is enhanced by the wise and liberal conduct of the more influential of the Catholic Prelates. Not fewer 'than nine of that body have declared their com plete adherence to the measure, and we have only to mention their names to show their respectability and learning. They are Dr. CROLLY, the Primate; Dr. MURRAY, Archbishop of Dublin, and the following Bishops :—Dr. RYAN, Dr. MURPHY, Dr. DEMUR, Dr. Bnowis% Dr. KEN NEDY, Dr. HEALY, and Dr. M‘Lousautm. These Bishops are among those most esteemed in Ireland, and we perfectly agree with the Evening Mail in thinking that " the quality of names is sometimes as important as their number." Thefol lowing remarks in the same journal, however, are of a more doubtful character :—" On the whole, this pro ceeding changes nothing of the position taken up by the Roman Catholic hierarchy while the measure was yet but in embryo. It is but a further specimen of the ambidextrous , policy perpetually carried on by the Church of Rome in Ireland, that of making every question connected with the Papal interests a two-handled one, to be taken up, on either side, as might best suit the occasion or expe diency of the times. Neither does it in the least elucidate the mystery connected with the expressions assigned to Mr. WYSE, to the effect that many of those prelates who, in public, were most clamorous against the Bill, were amongst the most ardent of those who, in private, urged him to per severe in the measure, and secure its completion." One part of this paragraph contains a most grievous charge, and, if founded on fact, would be of the first importance, as it would neutralise all the open efforts of certain Bishops against the Bill. We have intelligence from Madrid to the 17th inst. The city was perfectly tranquil, and the members of the Cabinet had reconciled all their differences. NABVAEZ was still in disposed, though able to attend to business. It was under stood that the Chambers would not be convoked before the end of the year. The Eco del Comercio states that several arrests had been made lately, and among other persons DOMINGO BELO, formerly Deputy for Granada, who had been confined in the barracks at Madrid. No business was done on the Bourse on the 17th, but there were sonic private transactions in the Three per Cents., at 32% cash. Exhange on London, 373/4. The Paris Conservative journals boast, and with good reason, that Conservatism is daily gaining ground in France, and instance the late elections as a proof. For nearly all the places left vacant by the late promotions of Deputies to the Chambers, Ministerial candidates have been returned. The Opposition appear to be utterly powerless, caused in some measure, as has been the case in this country, by dividing their strength, and thereby playing into the hands of the Government. Generally, however, the number of votes for the Legitimatist candidate and those of the Left did not to gether equal those given to the successful candidate. The Messager gives the following returns of Members in place of those raised to the Peerage by the last royal decree :—For Rochefort, Colonel DUMAS, Conservative, who had 269 votes. There were two Opposition candidates, M. ROY-BRY, who had 92 votes, and M. RENOU DR BALLON, who had 93. For Blois, M. BERGEVIN, Conservative ; he had 537 votes. The Prince DR CHALAIS, the Legitimatist candidate, had 206, and M. LEROY, the candidates of the Opposition of the Left, 116. For Coutances, M. QUESNAULT had 263 votes ;M. LEMENGUONET, Legitimatist,l62 ; M. MOSSELMAN, Opposition of the Left, 53. For Issoire (Puy de Dome), M. MouLar, Conservative, without opposition. On this victory the Journal des Debats of Tuesday makes the following remarks :—" The result of the elections of the 20th have reached us to-day. The Conservatives have every where been returned by large majorities. The boasting of the Opposition had almost alarmed us. We confess our weakness ; and still we ought to have had more confidence in the good sense and patriotism of the electors. Our readers may recollect that the Liberals and Legitimatists had pro mised to unite their suffrages at the second poll; unfortu nately, there was no occasion for a second poll, the Conser vative candidates having obtained more than the majority required. At Vendome alone, another ballot will be neces sary, but there the Opposition has not the slightest chance of success, the contest being between three candidates of the Conservative party. In future our opponents will act wisely in not awaiting the second ballot to give us the edifying spectacle of their alliance." On Sunday the KING, attended by General GOURGAUD, M. Dusiorr, and M. CHEFFONTAINE, walked in the park at Eu for about an hour, between twelve and two o'clock, and at three took a drive to Treport, accompanied by General GOURGAUD, Colonel DUMAS, the Marquis DR STRADA, and two orderly officers, returning to the Palace at half-past four. The Duke and Duchess of NEMOURS left Paris yesterday for Eu. The following are the only other extracts of interest in the papers : The Clot. du 111144 says, Don Carlos and his consort IaATS at • det c-,te _ • • ..t. IN RE DAVIS. This bankrupt, who carried on business in Jermyn.street, as a dealer in regimental and court dresses, came up to pass his last examination, and was opposed. His debts were very considerable, but the whale of his property had been taken under a levy. The examination this morning was principally confined to the debt of the judgment creditor, a person named Samuels, whose claim was for 1,5531. The insolvent said that he had given Samuels bills to the amount of between 4,0001. and 5,000/., on the latter promising to advance the amount to pay his creditors, and he (insolvent) was to give security to pay 3001. a year and in.. terest, but he never had the advance. He had not kept any books to explain the uni transactions, nor had he made out a detailed account as between himself and Samuels. The Learned CommisstowEß said that it was against reason to expect that the bankrupt should pass on such accounts. The bankrupt bad carried on a large trade, and was bound to give a sa tisfactory account to his cred►tors. Mr. LEwis, for the bankrupt, said that the creditors were satis fied except the one who opposed. • . The COMMISSIONER said that, supposing no one opposed, he should not consider he was doing justice to the public to pass a man and grant a certificate on such accounts, even though he was able to pay 10s. in the pound. The present dispute, however, would only, if favourable, bring in 3701. to the creditors, who, on principle, ougnt not to ask for the bankrupt to pass; . the whole claim of 1,553/. might be founded on fraud. The last examination was adjourned till the audit. Mr. Lewis applied for the bankrupt's protection. The Learned COMMISSIONER—I will grant it for a month, and let us see what he can do to clear up the matter. BOW - STREET.-(THIS DAY.) Cyprian Dufort, Edward Johnson, and Edward Fuller were placed at the bar, before Mr. Hall, charged with creating a dis_ turbance in Betts' Ch op H ouse, in the Strand, and w i t h assaulting Mr. Dormer, the landl ord of the house, and divers ot h ers of her Majesty's subjects. The landlord said that the prisoners came into his house last night, about half past-eight o ' c l oc k, an d ca ll e d for a pot of port er , which he gave th em . They afterwards had other l i quor, and one of them became so drunk that he refused to give them any more. At that moment, a stranger came in, and while he was waiting for some drink which he ordered, he challenged a person who was there when he came in to fight him. This person, a Mr. Jeffreys, who did not appear this morning, said he did not want to fight, and did his best to avoid a disturbance. The prisoners, however, en. couraged the stranger, and endeavoured to force Mr. Jeffreys into a quarrel. The stranger went away as soon as be had finished what he had to drink, but the prisoners were bent on a fight, and after endeavouring for some time to provoke a quarrel, they made a gratuitous attack on several persons who were there. Mr. Gillingham, who was present, and who had been attacked by Johnson, corroborated the prosecutor's statement, as did the waiter, who had likewise been assaulted. The prisoners denied the truth of the statements made by the prosecutor. Mr. HALL, after dwelling at some length on the peculiarly aggra. vated circumstances of the case. said he would fine Dufort 405., or in default 21 days' imprisonment; he should line Johnson 40s. for the assault on Mr. Gillingham, one of the wittesses, and 405. for the assault on the waiter. or In default 21 days for each offence. As the evidence against Fuller was not distinct, he should discharge him. CLERKENWELL.-(THIS DAY.) Walter Chambers, a well.dressed man, was charged by Mr. John Christopher, the landlord of the Windmill public-house, in Lea. ther-lane, with obtaining tkom him refreshment under false pre. tences. The prosecutor is the keeper of the tap connected with the brewery of Messrs. Reid, and on Wednesday the prisoner, In com pany with three other men, entered his house, and, after stating that they had been sent from the brewery, called for food, beer, brandy, and tobacco. They were served•to the amount of ss. 7d., and witness then, having some misgiving of them, went to Messrs. Reid, and ascertained that no authority had been given to the pri soner to obtain the goods inlquestion ; and when asked for payment he had "no effects." His companions, who were similarly situated, left him in the lurch, and he was handed over to the police. Mr. GREIiNWOOD said the conduct of the accused had been wicked and disgraceful, but he had no Jurisdiction in the matter. It was merely a debt, and he reluctantly discharged him.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool, yes:erday, were 7,000 bales, including 2,000 on speculation. Prices were steadily supported. Busiuess:done-200 bales Maranham at 5%d. to 6 3 / 4 d. ; Peruvian, at 6%d. to 7%d. ; 100 Egyptian, at 6%d. to 9d. ; 300 Surat, at 31%d. to 3 3 / 4 d. ; the rest Americani at 4d. to 6 3 %d. per lb. A fair business has been done in shares. The Brazil mail brings no very important intelligence from Rio, but in reference to the state of the money market and to mercantile matters there is nothing particularly favourable in them. Should the Minister succeed in his plans, some ins provement may perhaps occur. The exchange was 24% to 25. From Buenos Ayres the dates are of July 11, and here there is doubtless food for reflection, since, if the accounts are to be credited, we may expect the next arrival to bring in telligence of the cessation of hostilities at Monte Video, or the commencement of them by the English and French squadrons opposite Buenos Ayres. We have some hope of an amendment, in the United States tariff, if the following extract from a recent communication dated New York is to be relied on : "Every one must admit that the existing Tariff Act is very defective, and many of its provisions are burdensome upon the poorer classes, and many necessary articles consumed almost exclusively by the lower classes are taxed with a very high duty, while luxuries, consumed exclusively by the rich, are entered at a comparatively low rate. Some of these things should, and undoubtedly will, be remedied ; and it is these defects that the present Secretary of the Trea sury is aiming to abolish. The principal object he has in view is a complete revision of the tariff, and whenever it- is necessary, and can be done without sacrificing revenue, to remove the :high duty upon many articles, and place it upon others that will produce about a corresponding amount of revenue. There is plenty of room for the exer cise of the pruning -knife, and it is in judicious hands. The organs of the two great political parties will find, soon after the convention of Congress, that they have b een more frightened than hurt. The Tariff will, without doubt, during the approaching Session of Congress, be perfected, and the defects and abuses of the present Act be removed." The Funds have been very flat this morning, and we quote Consols % per cent. lower again, viz., 98% 1 4 for present transfer, and 98 1 % for Account.

H.—The Senate met to-day at three o'clock. A Committee was appointed to examine the project of law for the free importation of various articles of subsisteneo, and that for a vote of credit to continue the works of the canal of Campine. Their - Majesties the King and Queen and her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent came to Brussels yesterday. The King set out this morning at eight o'clock for the camp at Beverioe. It -IS now evident that the opposition of the depart ment of the North to the renewal of the treaty If the -16th of July is not occasioned by any distress of the linen manufacturers in that part of France, nor by the fear of seeing that branch of manufacture suffer by the competition of Belgium. All the in formation that we have been able to obtain on the spot agrees in representing the linen manufacture in France as very flourishing, and with a prospect of becoming still more so, notwithstanding the treaty of the 16th of July. Tun 'two; Sapr. 23.—Tranquillity is perfectly restored. Some rioters were arrested yesterday evening and during the night. Every precaution will be taken this evening to prevent any further disturbance. HAARLEM, SEPr. 22.—We have to-day sorse disturbances in this city. A band of mischievous boys assembled in the afternoon, and towards evening paraded the streets, and broke the windows of some mealmen. A detachment of troops immediately came to support the police, by which the shops were protected, and further disorders prevented. TUE,HAGUE, SEPT, 22.—A courier was dispatched this morning to Weimar, to announce, as we are informed, that his Majesty the King has given up his intention of going to Weimar. The magistrates have issued a proclamation relative to the dis turbance which took place here on the 20th and 21st instant, the object of which was to compel the dealers to reduce the price of provisions. The proclamation warns the inhabitants against such disorder, and threatens exemplary punishment to all who sball join in them. It is said that four persons are arrested. A number of persons collected again this evening before the house of a mealman who seems to be especially obnoxious. The assemblage was summoned three times to disperse, and a strong detachment of grenadiers and cuirassiers immediately advanced and dispersed the crowd. DUTCH FUNDS.—Amsm3DAm. SEPT. 23. Money. Bills.

The secession of Mr. Capes, a clergyman of Bridgwater, from the Protestant to the Romish Church, occurred a month or two ago, and excited considerable attention, especially as he had but recently exhibited his zeal for the English Estab lishment by erecting and endowing a magnificent chapel-of ease, of which he was the popular minister. Last week we copied an account from a provincial Contemporary, to the effect that a highly-respectable inhabitant of Bridgwater (a Mr. Poole), with his three sisters, had followed the example of Mr. Capes, and were become duly recognished members of the Church of Rome. We looked upon this as an unfortu nate but not unnatural sequence to the defection of an erring shepherd, some of whose flock would be very likely to be affected by his altered views. But the communication of a correspondent informs us, that with respect at least to the sisters of Mr. Poole, this inference is not sustained, in asmuch as they have been for a year and a half past resident at Ilfracombe, and consequently far removed from the ministry of Mr. Capes. But that is not all; while sojourning at Ilfracombe they have been in mates of the family of the curate of the parish, the Rev. Spencer Northcote, who is a near relative (a brother in-law), and who happens to be deeply tinctured with the views of the Pusey and Newman school, a sufficient proof of which will be accepted in the fact that he went purposely to Oxford on the occasion of the late degradation of the author of the "Ideal Church," to give his support to Mr. Ward, whose subsequent conversion to Popery is no torious. We have learnt also, that during the recent stay of Dr. Pusey at Ilfracombe (in whose congenial soil, by the invitation of the vicar and with the sanction of the bishop, the doctor has been suffered, both last year and this, to exer cise his ministry, from which he was interdicted by the high authorities of Oxford, as a punishment for his heresy), among his most favoured and intimate associates were Mr. Northcote and his pisters-in-law. These circumstances, as well as the questionable character of Mr. Northcote's preach ing, and the partiality and intention he has shown to indi vidual members of the Roman Catholic communion, have induced very painful apprehensions in the minds of many of the truly Protestant members of the Church at Ilfra combe, who consider that the vicar is bound to ascertain the fidelity of his curate, and to protect the congregation from the insidious effects of a semi-Romish ministry, of whose pernicious tendency the secession of the Misses Poole is an admonitory instance. Such, at least, is the opi nion of the esteemed correspondent who writes us. But knowing the leaning of the vicar, which has been too pal pable for years past to admit of question, we confess we wonder that the slightest expectation should be entertained of his interposition to correct an evil to which his own example has given the greatest possible encouragement. We would recommend the Protestant portion of the congregation at Ilfracombe to appeal at once to the Bishop ; and if he be not more tolerant of Romanism than he is of the mildest form of Protestant Dissent, they will not appeal to him in vain. A case precisely in point occurred not long ago in the west of Cornwall. A clergyman of established character, whose Protestantism and piety were alike above suspicion, was reported of to the Bishop that he permitted, or did not pre vent, a member of his family going occasionally to a Wesleyan chapel ; and so was his Lordship moved with indignation at such an act of infidelity to the Church, that although he had just before been himself coquetting with the Wesleyans, and inviting them to return to the bosom of the Establishment, he a t once and peremptorily withdrew the clergyman's was compelled to quit the diocese.

OXFORD, SEPT. 20.—The harN;est is nearly over in a • neighbourhood, and the corn generally has been stored in pretty good condition; and luckily it is so, for the weather since Saturday last has been very unfavourable, heavy rains having fallen, with little intervals of sunshine. This has proved a great check to the getting in the beans, and the remainder of the oats. The clover has been got up in capital order, and being beyond an average crop, will add very con siderably to the stock of hay ; an d th e f o dd er an d grass being plentiful, there will be plenty of hay next winter to supply the markets. The wheat crop is quite an average one, though the corn-dealers say the sample will not be so fine, or the quality so good as last year, when the yield was most ex. cellent. The barley crop has far exceeded that of several years past, and is allowed on all hands to be far above the average. The same may, in many districts, be said of oats ; they are well up in quantity, and the quality will be good. Beans and Peas are also plentiful. Turnips are very plentiful, but if the wet weather continue, great fears will be entertained for the preservation of them, many farmers being fearful that they shall be unable to keep them from getting mouldy. Mangel-wurzel, of which large quantities are grown in this county, looks remarkably strong and healthy, and is not in the least affected. Carrots, of which also large quantities are grown, have not at present been touched with the disease which, we are sorry to say, is so prevalent and destructive to the potato crops. Many fields of potatoes that were but slightly touched a week or two ago are now scarce worth the trouble of digging up. In se vera l cases where they have been taken up it has been found that those which were healthy at first have become diseased after they have been out of the ground a few days, and although carefully picked apart at first, an other loss has taken place on looking over them again.-- Corn Market: old wheat fetched to-day from 14/. to 141., with plenty of buyers ; new, from 11/. k to 12/. 10s. ; barley, 28s. to 345. ; oats were at least 2s. per quarter higher; beaus sold at 12/. and 13/. ; peas varied from 91. to 11/. The wheat trade, owing to the presence of several speculators from the metropolitan and other counties, was unusually brisk; no sooner was a sample shown than it was eagerly purchased. The millers and bakers in consequence of the rise in wheat clapped 33. per sack on flour, so that there is every prospect of the loaf being still much dearer. STIRLDIGSMRE.—We have had another week of good har vest weather, making now twenty-three days, all of whi c h have been good working- days, with the exception of Saturday last, which was mostly wet throughout, and therefore no thing was done in the fields. The present will be a bread year, come of the potatoes what will; it will also be a turnip year, which will produce beef and mutton ; and these with bread in galore, whether wheat en , oaten, or b arley, make capital cheer. Rain began to fall again yesterday at mid day, and continued very constant and heavy till six o'clock in the evening, and is still threatening —Stirling Observer. AYRSHIRE.—The weather, which has for some time past been everything the husbandman could desire, broke on Saturday last, and since then we have had frequent showers, some of them pretty heavy, though not of long continuance. We still receive from our correspondents throughout the county accounts of the further spread of the potato blight, and likewise of the general progress of harvest operations. We understand that Professor Johnson has been in Ayrshire, endeavouring to trace the course and extent of this distress ing occurrence, and of course his report will be anxiously looked for.—Ayr Advertiser. A correspondent, who is a practical agriculturist of consi derable skill and experience, has taken exception to a re mark made by us last week. He says that for one farmer who jhas been dilatory in getting in his wheat, there are twenty who have been in much too great a hurry about that important operation—that the consequence is that a large quantity of wheat has been got together in a premature state, whereby loss in quantity and inferiority in quality will be ex perienced at threshing time—and he further informs us that the advice which has been given to farmers at agricultural meetings, and by writers in agricultural publications, namely, to commence reaping before the wheat crop is fully ripe, is erroneous and mischievous. We are sorry, also, to be in formed from the same authority that our anticipations of the result of the present year's produce have been expressed too favourably—the ears of corn are, he states, to a great extent very defective, and will by no means realise the promise which they hold forth to the eye of a superficial examiner. The injury to the potato crop is likewise spoken of as wide spread and serious, and it is also stated that unmistakeable indications of a kindred disease, no doubt produced by mois ture and a low temperature, are exhibiting themselve in the other root crops. Swedes, mangel, carrots, &c., which gave a promise of wholly unparalleled abundance, and of extraordi nary fine quality, are now stated to show symptoms of rot, and it is feared that they will be much deteriorated as food for stock, and will not store well. The inference from all this is, that prices of the necessities of life, for man and beast, during the ensuing year, will be much higher than was anti cipated. All this is opposed to the information which had previously reached us. We lay this, our "latest intelligence from the rural districts," before our readers, with the earnest hope that it:may be less true than we fear it to be.—Gloucester Journal. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlN—Your correspondent from Exeter, in his anxiety to serve his own views about the two Exmouth lines, omits to mention that the share in one line is 101.105., and in the other 251., so that Dew's line at ss. premium is equal to Head's at 12s. 6d. There was a report that Head's line was taken up by the South Devon Railway Company, and that gave them a temporary rise. Daw's line sold freely in London the same week at 10s., and they have since reached 255. premium in Manchester.—Yours, Exeter, Sept. 24, 1845. EXONIAN. THE OBSCENE PROPERTIES OF THE VULTURE.— The above foul bird will devour, with a disgusting trait of greediness, the most putrid offal, and in almost all parts of the east, groups of them, from twenty to thirty, may be seen assembled together, fattening upon human and other animal corpses. So depraved, so vitiated, and so rotten is the consti tutional system of the vulture, that its veryfeathers may be ob served to molt from its wings, at voluntary intervals, whilst it is in the act of gorging its prey; and there is one fart in relation to this repulsive bird which is perhaps not generally known, it is this, viz., that no anim a l w h a t ever w il l prey upon the vulture, or otherwise--not even the jackall or glutton, which are in the habit of burrowing into, and ransacking, the repositories of the dead, and indulging each a morbid appe tite, yet these beasts will not approach the vulture, but will turn away from it with total abhorrence. Even the common flesh fly ( masc.% putris) will not lend its aid towards annihi lating the volucrine nuisance under consideration, by inocu lating the carcase of the bird with its ckaistuning larvre, but avoids coming into contact with the foetid mass, so that the vulture may be looked upon as the most obscene of all car nivorous scavengers, and can be viewed only in the light of a solitary outcast, singled out from the wide and varied uni 'versity of animated nature. Da FORESTS.—The sport of deer-stalking has been pursued with success for the last fortnight. Wags are more migratory than usual this season, few having been seen at many of their favourite haunts. John Ross, Esq., at Strathgarve, shot a pair of stags right and left; at the same place and time, A. Mackenzie, Esq. yr., of Ord, got a stag. Mr. Flood and Mr. Chearnly, at tuellinault, secured four. At Redcastle, two rod deer and two roe ,were killed by sons of Colonel Bailie. Colonel Porter shot two stags at Inchnacardock. Mr. White, of Monar has killed one ; Glenmo. riZton one very heavy deer • Lord Walsingham, at Kinlochewe, one; Sir P. Mostyn and Lord L ovat: have brought down several good stags. A very heavy royal stag's head was sent here the other day from Erchless Castle to be preserved. The beam of the horns is of uncommon thickness, with wide span, and three thick branches, forming nearly the famous cups on the top of each. Another royal head, of nearly equal dimensions, arrived this morning from Corti= mony; The antlers are finely overspread with rough projections.—, Inverness Courier. THE LATE ACCIDENT AT THE BRIGHTON, CROYDON, AND DOPER RAILWAY TERMINUS, AT LONDON BRIDGE.—Last night an inquest was held before Mr. Joseph Payne, the deputy coroner, at Guy's Hospital, on the body of Rd. Garvin, aged 35, late an engine turner, in the service of the London, Brighton, Croydon, and Dover Ralway Company, who met his death under the following circum stances :—Edgar Burton, of Bermondsey-street, deposed that about a quarter to ten, on Sunday evening, he was preceding with his brother to his stables, and as soon as he knocked at the door he saw the deceased lying about ten feet up the passage on his back, and on going to him he appeared to ha quite insensible • there was a severe cut ac ross th e l ef t temple ; the witness's brother went for a surgeon, and the deceased was conveyed into the Jolly Hatters. The width of the passage from the railway to the Jolly Hatters is about four feet ; he supposed that the deceased had fallen from the railway ; the height is about 25 feet. The witness had seen persons get off the railroad into the Jolly Hatters from the coping to the window-sill The deceased was afterwards conveyed to the hospital. The Coroner said it appeared from the evidence without doubt that the decea,ect met his death through stepping from the coping to the window, and that his foot might have slipped ; it was certainly very dangerous, and. some notice ought to be taken of it ; however, the railway authorities would now, through the press, become acquainted with the fact, and he had no doubt something would be done. Verdict, " Accidenta` Death," with a recommendation that the coronerahould write to the railway authorities on the subject ; that if the practice is to be con-. tinned, some means may be adop ted to prevent accidents. SINGULAR INCIDENT.—About ten years ago, whilst a man of the name of Robertson, a slater, and belonging to Dean ston, was at work at heir House, he accidentally fell through the hot-house. He appeared to have received no injury, except a scratch and a slight cut in the thick part of the left hand, in a line with the little finger. Feeling a good deal of uneasiness in the part, he thought he must have fractured a small bone. Stlil, however, it gave him little trouble, except an occasional twinge whilst at work. until, about three weeks ago, his arm became inflamed, and suppuration took place about three inches above the wrist. nearly in a line with the part previously cut with glass. The suppu ration soon closed, and the part seemed to be healed, and all going on as before. About three days thereafter, however,:whilst at work at Inner Trosach Lodge, he felt his arm uneasy, and as if something sharp ruffled Lgaiust his shirt. On taking off his coat and examining the part, he was not a little surprised to see the end of a piece of glass protruding—the same that had cut and entered into the palm of his hand no less than ten years before. On the glass being ex tracted, it was found to be 3-7ths of an inch long, and 2-Sths broad at one end, whilst the other was sharp-pointed.—Stirling Journal .

DEATH OF MR. 'BORTH ICK OF CROORSTON.—We regret to have to announce the death of this gentleman, so long known as an active magistrate, and one who took a peculiar interest in the management of the affairs of the county of Edinburgh.

So many holes having been picked in them since their powers of sailing have been tested, that we are afraid they deserve the compliment rather too literally. Even the Cove of Cork, where they are at pre. sent floundering, must see through them.—Punch.
