Mr. Justice Cresswell sat on the civil, and Mr. Baron Rolfe on the criminal side. There are only five cases in the calendar. One prisoner stands charged with rape, and one with shooting at the lien. Mr. Moore, at Preston, on the 2d of this month. On the civil side sixteen cases are entered for trial. (Before Mr. Baron RoLFE. ) The Court was engaged a great part of the day with the trial of a case of rape, which terminated in the acquittal of the prisoner. Richard Bennett was indicted for having at Preston dis charged a loaded pistol at the Rev. Richard Moore, with in tent to murder him. Mr. Holton conducted the prosecution ; the prisoner was defended by Mr. Brandt. It appeared from the statement of the Rev. Mr. Moore, that he is the clergyman of Lund, and a magistrate for the county. Has been in the commission for many years. Lund is about two miles from Kirkham, where the prisoner resides, and about seven miles from Preston. The prisoner is a shoe maker, and about two years ago was before the prosecutor on a charge which was dismissed. On the 2d of the present month, the prosecutor was passing along Fishergate, in Preston, on his way to the Town-hall, when be heard the discharge of a pistol or a gun close to him, and was instantly enveloped in smoke. Immediately after some hard substance struck him on the breast. He looked round and saw the prisoner four or five yards off. He was endeavouring to get away, but staggered as if in great alarm. The prosecutor seized him, and a man came up at the moment and assisted in securing him. Witness said, " He has struck me," and the man replied, " He has shot at you," and produced a pistol he had picked up. The prisoner said nothing. John Harrison, the person who had picked up the pistol, stated that he was close to Mr. Moore's right hand when the pistol was fired. The prisoner pulled the pistol out of his pocket with his rightihand, and fired it straight at Mr. Moore. He then flung the pistol at Mr. Moore, and it struck him on the breast. On cross-examination, the witness said that he was an old soldier, and that he thought had the pistol been properly loaded it must of necessity have hit Mr. Moore. Adam Capstick, who was also close to Mr. Moore when the shot was fireksaid he thought he heard someting whiz past his head. Wm. Kirby also deposed to the fact of the prisoner firing the pistol. Robert Williams, a policeman, produced the pistol. it was a common screw-barrel pocket pistol. Witness had searched for traces of a ball, but could find none. There was, however, a low thatched building on the other side of the street a little further down, in which it might have lodged. On his examination before the magistrate the prisoner said, "He has accused me of a crime of which lam not guilty. I want to make it known." This was the case for the prosecution. Mr. BRA NDT addressed the jury for the defence, contending that there was no evidence that the pistol was loaded with any thing calculated to do grievous bodily harm, but, on the con trary, even in the case for the prosecution, the testimony went to show that it could riot have been so. Had the party had any serious intent to injure Mr. Moore—had the pistol con tained a ball or any destructive material, the contents must in evitably have passed into the body . of the prosecutor. He ap prehended there could be no question in the case, except as respected the common assault, of which, should the evidence establish it, the prisoner might be found guilty on this indict ment. Even as to that he (Mr. Brandt) had a case to set up, which he did with reluctance, but which he thought it his duty to lay before them. The evidence would show that the pri soner was a person of a very peculiar temperament, liable to fits of despondency and absence of mind, in which he wandered about in a state of apparent vacancy. He had written also a great number of letters to his attorney, bearing every mark of a disordered mind, and was, it would be proved beyond all doubt, frequently in a state in which he was not accountable for his actions, and which gave great alarm to his relatives and friends. . . . second dir. of 1":1-d. in the pound, Aug. 16, and three last Saturdays in October, at the office of Mr. Groom, Ab church -lane.

William Bain, manager of pyroligneous acid manufac tory, Headswood, near Denny, Aug. 19 and Sept. 9, at one, at the house of Mr. Kirwood, Denny. Mr. Thomas Shaw, a surgeon at Kirkham, said he had known the prisoner seven or eight years. He was a person of very reserved manners, and frequently would net enter into conversation with any one. He seemed in a state of vacancy, and in the opinion of the witness was not at such times in his right mind. in the June of last year he was quite insane. Witness attended him about a week. He could not sleep. Witness saw him a day or two before this occurrence, and he then seemed not in his right mind. Andrew Lewis and Peter Barnett gave similar testimony. Mr. Robert Ascroft, an attorney at Preston, said that about two years ago he received three anonymous letters from the prisoner. They were destroyed. The contents of the first were— ,. Sir,—l am going to put a ball through my thick head for a foolish thing I once did. I wish to know if you have any commands for the shades below." About six• weeks after witness received another, which con tained simply— Who steals my purse steals trash." SHAKESPEARE." The third was received some time after, and was as follows " If you had a friend in whom you placed confidence, and who either deceived you or betrayed you, what would you do with him ?" Several other letters, of a similar nature, received lately, were produced and read. This was the case for the defence. His LORDSHIP summed up, and The jury, after a few minutes' deliberation, re t urn ed their verdict, acquitting the prisoner absolutely of the felony, and acquitting him of the minor offence of assault on the ground of insanity. His Lonosittr, after examining the Acts as to persons ac - quitted on the ground of insanity, said he had some doubt whether they, or either of them, applied to a case like the present, where the prisoner was indicted for the felony, and acquitted of the. minor charge only on the ground of insanity. He should, however, direct the prisoner to be kept in custody till her Majesty's pleasure should be known, and the question as to the construction of the Acts might be considered else where. On the civil side nothing of public interest occurred. LECTURE ON LUNACY. On Wednesday evening a lecture was delivered at the British Coffee House, Coekspur.street, by J. T. Per ceval, Esq.. on the interest which the members of re ligion of all denominations are bound to take in the proper treatment and examination of persons alleged to be of unsound mind. The lecture was advertised to be in aid of a new society lately instituted, The Lunatics' and Alleged Lunatics' Friend Society. The lecturer began by aplogising for intruding him. self upon public attention, on a subject of so serious and affec . ing a nature, and more particularly on account of the connexion of the subject with the religion of his nintry, which did not belong to his sphere, but to the sphere of the ministers of religion. He had also felt reluctant on account of the ridicule which he knew would attach itself in the minds of many at the idea of connecting lunacy or madness with religious inter ference and instruction; but he hoped to prove, in the course of his observations, that this ridicule was erroneous and reprehensible. He felt himself to be so far far qualified to speak on the subject, as he had himself been practically acquainted with it in all its bearings, having been unfortunately a fellow-sufferer with the unhappy persons whose cause he was about to advo cate. But it was especially that cause which had prompted him to come forward. He had been an eye-witness of the ill treatment and sufferings they were compelled to endure, and because he knew these sufferings to be of an extreme and real character, that he considered it to be a duty which he owed to his fellow creatures, to aid with all his powers in the exposure and remedy of these abuses. The lecturer then alluded to the Society la`ely insti tuted for the protection of the British subject from un just confinement on account of mental derangement, which had given him every assistance on this occasion, and had addressed nearly 400 letters, inclosing tickets of admis sion to the Bishops, the Clergy, and the Ministers of all religious denominations in the metropolis, of whom he was sorry to see so few thought it worth their white to attend. Yet he would prove that lunatics were, in every sense, deserving objects of the attention of ministers of religion, putting his claims to that attention on the lowest Possible scale, even as animals. The lunatics called for, and demanded the protection of the ministers of reli gion, still more as poor, as afflicted, as sick, as prisoners. To all of whom, in every capacity, the ministers of reli • gion were sent by the Author of the Divine mission, who came to seek and save them that were lost—but lest those present who were not acquainted with the sub ject, and who were unaware of the brutal treatment luna tics received, should think that the complaints were ex aggerated against the system of private lunatic asylums, he would relate a few instances of gross and indelicate ill-treatment of patients which he had witnessed. The lecturer then entered into details of the ' most harsh and indelicate ill-treatment of patients of the highest education and of the most refined feel ings, and particularly to a clergyman whom he met in one of those asylums, and who was repeatedly caned in the most violent manner by one of the keepers, in his presence. This gentleman was of a very mild and ami able disposition, and had often interposed to prevent similar brutal assaults of the keepers on himself. li e appealed, therefore, to the ministers of religion not only for the sake of female delicacy, which was continually outraged in these houses, but for the sake of members of their own profession, who were exposed to the grossest insults, the greatest irreverence, the most brutal as saults, under the deepest affliction that can befal human nature. He observed, that he hoped he had proved that the ministers of religion were entitled to claim the right of superintendence in these asylums—to the right of visiting the members of their congregations con fined therein, to afford them religious advice and consolation —to minister to the mind diseased — to offer that sweet solace and consolation which religion alone can supply, and simply by their presence and at tention to give to these asylums that mild and soothing character so opposed to the present brutal system, and the abuses to which he had referred and exposed. These , had occurred under the present supervision of magis t trates and the Metropolitan Commissioners in Lunacy, showing that system to be a complete failure. The failure of the present system justified the clergy and the minis ) ters of religion generally, in demanding tor the benefit of t this unforehnate portion of our fellow c,,untrymen and countrywomen, a new system upon new principles, which being founded on sound reason and the highest charities a religion could net fail of being successful. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MAASION-HOUSE. The case relating to the tea warrants, which occupied a great deal of the Lord Mayor's time on Friday last, was further inquired into esterday, but after much discussion between counsel employed upon both sides, was adjourned to this day. There were some remark able circumstances connected with the subject, which caused very intense interest ; but, for obvious reasons, we omit the report until the decision of the Lord Mayor shall have been declared. A woman "named Ann regrun, who had the appearance of the wife of a decent tradesman, was brought before the Lord Mayor. R. Cobb (policeman No. 658) stated, that as he was walking along Wormwood-street he saw the defendant apparently in great agony, rubbing her knee, at the step of the hall-door. She was very loud in her lamentation, and upon being questioned, said she bad had a violent fall, and had sustained desperate mischief. Witness took her to the station-house and caused her to be examined by a surgeon, who told her to rest a little and she would soon get over the injury, if she had been in jured. In the station-house she became, apparently, a greater object of compassion, for she complained of pains in both legs, and it was considered necessary to take her, on account of her agony, to the hospital. She became extremely violent upon the stretcher, but was at last de posited on a bed in the hospital, and examined by Mr. Travers, who, after due investigation, stated that nothing whatever was the matter with her, and signed a certifi cate to that effect, for the inspection of the magistrate before whom it might be considered necessary to takeher. The Loan MArort—You charge her, then, with being an impostor ?- . —The policeman said there was no do ubt at all that she had complained of pain for the purpose of exciting compassion. She requested that witness would allow her to go away, when she saw he was de termined upon inquiry, and there was reason to believe that she had been lately engaged in stripping children of their clothes in the unfrequented lanes and alleys. The prisoner said she had been attacked with violent pains in consequence of a fall she had had, and that she never had been guilty of deception or plunder of any kinct—She was remanded for a few days. GUILDHALL. THE LATE EXTENSIVE ROBBERY ON THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.-Yesterday, Mr. Chas. Maynard, an estate agent, of No. 10, Elowland-street, Fitzroy-square, was brought before Alderman Hughes Hughes, for re-examination, charged with unlawfully attempting to take a reward on account of helping Mr. V. Prance, solicitor, residing at Bridgewater, to recover a writing-ease, containing bills of exchange to the amount of 2,0001., which had been stolen on the Great Western Railway the early part of last month. Mr. Clarkson, with Mr. Nash, from the firm of Swains , Stevens, and CO., solicitors to the railway, appeared to con duct the prosecution, and Mr. Humphreys defended the prisoner. On the 7th ult., a Mr. Prance, solicitor, residing at Nether Stowey, near Bridgewater, was a passenger from London by the Great Western Railway, and he delivered his luggage to ong of the porters, who planed a label on it. He mentioned to the porter that it contained valuable property. When the train arrived at Bridgewater, about t xo o'clock in the morning, the writing case was missing. On the 12th ult. Mr. Prance received an anonymous letter, stating that the leather else containing the notes and bills were safe, and that a liberal s reward must be paid for its recovery. The holders would seek a person highly respectable to act as agent in the affair, and the prosecutor was to advertise in the Morning Post, thus :—" Alpha will give pounds, if all the papers are re t urne d sa fe." The letter concluded by stating that " none hut principals would be allowed to inter fere in the matter." Mt. Prance immediately handed the letter to the manager of the Great Western Railway Com• pany, who consulted Mr. Clarkson on the subject. The de. sired advertisement not being sent to the Morning Post, on the 18th of July a second letter was received, stating " That if no answer was advertised in the Morning Post of the following Tuesday, the papers , would he out of the holder's hands, ari d irrevocably lost. This letter was in the same handwriting as the first. An advertise me n t was then sent to the Morning Post, dots instead of figures being placed after` the kr. Another letter was then re. THE S UN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVEN [NG, AUGUST 13 ►845. ceived, dated from Morley's Hotel, Charing.cross, July 23, which stated that the agent appointed to arrange the matter referred to was untortunately at Sandhurst, and would not return until the following Saturday ; buts-that he (the writer) would address a letter to him, and that Mr. Prance should receive an answer from him at his re sidence, at Bridgewater. The letter also said that the amount of the reward must be named in figures after the X. in the next advertisement. On the following day Mr. Prance received at Bridgewater the promised communication from the agent, Mr. Charles Maynard. It was dated July 24, Mr. Paine's Farm, Sandhurst, Kent, and was to the effect that a stranger had called at his office the previous week, and said that he had found a travelling-desk and contents, which appeared to belong to Mr. Prance. The individual said that he had not obtained it dishonestly, and proposed that the owner should state what amount he would give for the recovery of the property, and address his communication to his (the writer's) office, No. 19, Howland-street, Fitzroy-square. It also said that the finder thought he should receive 1001., hut that he would take 501. with a redemption on the part of the prosecutor that no ulterior proceedings should be taken. The cash was to be deposited in the writer's ( iMaynard's) hands, and the papers would be left at his office two hours after for Mr. Prance. The letter concluded by hoping that the affair would be settled between the following Saturday and Wed nesday, and that he (the writer) was of opinion that the finder of the desk was under the tuiti m of some sharp prac titioners. These communications were all handed to Mr. Seymour Clarke, manager of the Great Western Railway Company, and under the advice of the solicitors to the Com pany a meeting was courted, and their clerk, Mr. Nash, was appointed to attend to the business. On the '2d of August another letter was received from the prisoner, stating his regret that he could not meet Mr. Clarke, on account of great press of business, and urging on Mr. Clarke to agree to terms at once, as the man who had the desk did not appear to be in needy circumstances, and it was not in his (Maynard's) power otherwise to give the aid required in re covering the property. It also stated that it would be a useless waste of time to scrutinise his (the prisoner's) conduct, as he knew no particulars. and the affair could only be concluded through his agency. The last letter, dated August 4, said the things could be obtained for 411., and that he (Maynard) would see Mr. Clarke on the following morning, from nine to half-past nine o'clock. A meeting took place at the railway station on Tuesday last, when an appointment was made to deliver up the property at the Guildhall Coffee-house, and there, after a little negotiation about the amount to be given, the property was restored, minus 10/. in gold and a bill of exchange for 1201. The writing-case, however, was not given up. The prisoner, at the railway station, agreed to take' 251., but en his announcing the loss of the 1201. bill, Mr. Prance beat him down to 22/. 10s. The prisoner was then given into custody. At the conclusion of the examination of Mr. Prance and Mr. Nash yesterday, Mr. Clarkson said he hoped the Magistrate would again adjourn the case, as he had an appointment, which, on account of the length of the present examination, he found very in convenient. After some discussion ; it was agreed the amount of bail should be reduced to himself in 4001., and two sureties of 200/. each. LAMBETH. INCENDIARISM, ASSAULT, AND ROBBERY.—Yesterday George Humphery Bryant was charged before Mr. Henry with being drunk, and wilfully setting fire to the house of Mrs. Odell, No. 59, Hill -street, Walworth. _ . Mrs. Odell deposed that on the evening before the prisoner, who had lodged at her house for upwards of twelve months, came home intoxicated and ill-used his wife, shamefully abused her ( witness), and threatened to burn the place down. He then went up stairs, but after stopping a few minutes returned, and exclaimed, " I have set a light to your house." Witness ran up stairs, and on entering the apartment occupied by the prisoner and his wife she found the bed and bedding on fire. She instantly flung some water on the bed, and, with the as sistance of her servant, succeeded in extinguishing the fire be fore it had done any serious mischief. The prisoner returned in about a quarter of an hour, armed with a large club, and swore with most desperate oaths he would have the lives of both his wife and-witness ; and so violent was his manner that they were both obliged to lock themselves up in the first instance, and then escape by getting out of the front windows, while the prisoner was in the back part of the house. Police-constable William Staggill stated that he went to take the prisoner into custody, and proceeded up stairs for that purpose. The prisoner gave him a violent blow on the arm with the tongs, and knocked him down a flight of stairs, by which his spire and arm were injured. He, however, followed the prisoner, who had effected his escape by the back way from the house, and ultimately secured him. The prisoner, in his defence, said he was so drunk at the time that he was almost unconscious of what he did, but he said he had not wilfully set the bed on fire. Sergeant Pritchard, P 22, informed the magistrate that there was a third charge against the prisoner of having stolen a large ingot of tin from the premises of Mr. Coad, a plumber and painter in High. street, Camberwell, on Saturday night last. He was remanded to a future day to give the officers an op portunity of tracing the property. UNGRATEFUL THIEF. —John Hutchinson, a young fellow of shabby genteel appearance, and who was described as a cabinet-maker, was charged with stealing a writing-desk con taining plate to the value of 301., a bank receipt for a 1001., and a Bank of England note for 51., the property of Mr. James Lampard, a barrister's clerk. The prisoner had been paying his addresses to the daughter of the prosecutor, and being out of employment he was lodged and fed at the house. On Monday evening the prosecutor went to his society in the Blackfriars-road, and at about ten o'clock his wife and daughter went to meet him on his return home, leaving the house in the prisoner's care. On their ret urn they missed the prisoner and also the writing-desk, and ,found the prisoner had gone out the back way. At a quarter to twelve o'clock the prisoner was stopped in High-street, Poplar, with ,he boa unopened, and the whole of the property in it. The prisoner was committed for trial. WORS/i/ P- ST R E THE SWELL MOB IN A CEMETERY.—Yesterday a young man of smart appearance, who gave his name and address as Alfred Page, Victoria terrace, Camberwell, was charged with attempting to pick pockets in the Abney-park Cemetery, Stoke Newington. The wife of Mr. Mechi, the well-known razor and strop manufacturer, was buried on Monday afternoon, and the funeral being a rather ostentatious one, attracted a very great crowd to the cemetery. Many pockets were picked, and the prisoner, whose motions had excited the suspicion of many persons, was given into custody. He, however, made such a violent resistance, that he was conveyed from the cemetery to the Kingsland police-station in a wheelbarrow, and thence to the court upon the police stretcher. A witness named Storer stated that he saw the prisoner press against persons in the crowd, particularly ladies, in a way that excited his suspicion. A friend of his, also, one of the undertakers, pointed out the prisoner to him, and said he was one of the swell mob. Ile therefore watched, and saw the prisoner, after pressing against several, actually put his hand into the pocket of one lady. He presently afterwards lost sight of the prisoner in the crowd; but he spoke to the lady, and ascertained from her that she had been robbed of some- thing, and some time afterwards the prisoner was taken into custody. Policeman Miles, 273 N, said he saw the prisoner feel the pockets of several ladies, at the very brink of the grave; and while the minister was reading the burial service, the prisoner appeared to be devoutly repeating the Lord's Prayer after him, putting his hand at the same time into the pocket of a lady that he was pressing against. Mr. BINGHAM remanded the prisoner, far the attendance of the ladies alluded to. GREENWICH. FIRST CONVICTION UNDER THE NEW ACT AGAINST SAIUGGLING.—This Act of Parliament came into opera ion on the 4th inst., and authorises police-constables and others to apprehend and bring before the magistrates persons charged with smuggling quantities of manufactured foreign tobacco and spirits, in packages not weighing 61bs. and of spirits not ex ceeding one gallon. The 57th se c tion of the Act dispenses with the necessity of Custom-house informations in such cases, and subjects the offender to a penalty of five pounds, and not less than forty shillings, or one month's imprisonment in the House of Correction. John Ivey, dressed as a bricklayer's labourer, was brought before Mr. Jeremy, charged with the unlawful possession of five packages of foreign cigars, weighing two pounds ten ounces. Police-sergeant Beech deposed that he apprehended the pri soner in the Maidstone-road, Eltham-green. The prisoner had a bundle under his arm, and said, on being questioned, that it contained wearing apparel ; from his manner he sus pected the truth of the prisoner's statement. On examining the bundle he discovered the cigars produced. The prisoner then said he had bought them of a man at Erith for 17s. Mr. Thomas Cornell, Queen's Appraiser of Customs, de posed that the cigars were of foreign manufacture, and in foreign packages, the duty on which was 245. 9d., and the value of the same 2s. 4/d. Mr. JEREMY ordered the prisoner to pay the mitigated penalty of 405., and in default he stood committed for one month to the House of Correction. RUGELEY.—A fearful inundation visited this town on Tuesday night, spreaiing sudden devastation and alarm amongst its inhabitants. Rugeley is situated near Cannock Chase, and to the north of Hednesford, in which neighbour hood are several pools of water, used for the working of various mills. In the afternoon of the day mentioned a dark and portentous cloud was observed to rest over that locality. Towards evening it suddenly discharged itself in a sweep ing torrent near what is called Brindley's pool, which was completely burst. The impetuous torrent then rolled along till it overwhelmed another and another pool, carrying before it for many miles waggons, carts, and every obstiuction in its course, till at length it came in contact with a stream that runs through Hagley-park, the seat of the Hon. Mr. Curzon, near the town of Rugeley. Here the waters forced down the park.wall, ten feet high, creating two immense chasms 100 feet in length. It then poured into the town, filling the houses to the height of three, four, and six feet. Many individuals were suddenly snatched up by the current, and borne along for many yards, to the imminent danger of their lives. Property and buildings to a consider able amount have been damaged, it is said to something like 2,0001. or 3,0001. Fortunately no lives have been lost. Persons in the City, who have carefully examined the lists of foreign railways, with a view to see their effect upon the circulation, have estimated that about 10,000,0001. must be sent out in the course of the year on account of the shares held in this country, exclusive of what has already been paid. This fact—which seems incontestable—should serve as a warn ing to speculators to be more than ordinarily careful in their operations, and not to rush into the market on the strength of the facilities which the present state of money affords. They should always bear in mind, that however well stocked the vaults of the Bank of England may be, that institution has lost its expansive power under the present system, and can no longer step in to supply a deficiency in the currency, the issue of notes on securities being rigidly limited to 14,000,00 a It is the more necessary to repeat this circumstance to the public, as even those who ought to be best informed on the subject are often found to entertain a vague notion, that the Bank could afford some assistance if they were willing, whereas it is im possible to entertain a view more fallacious. The weekly pub lication of the Bank returns ought to convince every one how completely all operations in that quarter are restricted.— Times. BAPTIST BUILDING FUND SOCIETY.—Last evening the annul'. meeting of the members and friends of this Society, established in 1824, fur the purpose of relieving the chapels of the above sect from debt, as well as erecting new places of worship where they were required, was held at the Baptist Mission-house, Moorgate-street. Joseph Fletcher, Esq , was called to the chair, and addressed the meeting on the import ance of the Society, and the benefit it would render to Chris tianity if supported. The Secretary then read the report, from which it appeared that the receipts had been for some time gradually diminishing, and for the last year were 52/. less than the preceding year. The sum available in the hands of the treasurer was but 629/., of which over 5001. had been granted for the objects of the Society, which relieved most of the_ metropolitan chapels from the debts with which they had been. encumbered. Several addresses on behalf of the Society were delivered in the course of the evening. DEATII FROM THE ATTACK OF A BULL,—On Mon day evening Mr. Samuel Murrough, a medical student, of Castle -street, Oxford-street, expired from the effects of in juries received from the attack of a bull whilst walking in a field near the chalk-pits at Gravesend. The deceased was in his twenty-second year, and had lingered from Wednesday last. 41.

ORANGE SOCIETY-LORD IIEYTESBURY'S LETTER. DUBLIN, SATURDAY EVENING.—The following is the letter of the Lord Lieutenant, announcing to Mr. Wat son the determination of the Government to remove him from the office of dnputy-lieutenant. This letter may be considered as a warning to all lieu tenants, deputy-lieutenants, awl magistrates, that any participation on their part in the Orange Society will be followed by dismissal. Although this.letter has been kept back by Mr. Watson, it has been studied by the Orange leaders, and they have, in consequence, shrunk from the course first proposed to 'be adopted at the Orange mon ster meeting in Riniskillen on Tuesday next. The writ to supersede Mr. Watson from the commission of the peace in the counties of Antrim and Dawn was for warded by the northern mail this evening _ " Dublin Castle, 31st July, 1845. - - - - - " Sir,—l am directed by the Lord Lieutenant to ac knowledge the receipt of your letter of the 23d instant, stating—in answer to that which inquired of you, as a deputy-lieutenant of the county of Antrim, whether you joined in the resolutions of the Lisburn Orangemen, or signed th(nn as 'chairman ?—‘ ~hat you signed the resolutions alluded to as chairman, and not as deputy lieutenant.' " dis Excellency has received this answer with deep regret. " It must be in your recollection that the subjEct of Orange societies has anxiously engaged the attention of the Crown and the Legislature. " On the 25th of February, 1836, his late Maiesty King William the Fourth, in reply to an address of . the House of Commons, praying his Majesty to discourage Orange lotes, expressed himself to the following effect : " I willingly assent to the prayer of my faithful Commons, that I will be pleased to take such measures as may seem to me advisable for the eff4ctual discourage ment of Orange lodges, and generally of all political so cieties excluding persons of a different religious faith, using secret signs and symbols, and acting by means of associated branches. It is my firm intention to dis courage all such societies in my dominions ; and I rely with confidence on the fidelity of my loyal subjects to support me in this determination.' •• The intentions of his ➢Zajesty, as thus expressed, were without delay adopted and enforced by the Legis lature. _ " In an Act of the same session (6 and 7 William IV., cap. 38), on a subject not necessarily involving the question, opportunity was taken of inserting provisions (sections 8,9) which opposed the strongest practical fin nts to the assembling of societies constituted as Orange lodges are described to be ; and a subsequent Act, specially directed to the purpose (2 and 3 Victoria, cap. 74), put an end to their legal existence. " Tne subject was again brought under the notice of Parliament in the past session, when this Act was re newed by the 7th and Bth Victoria, cap. 78 ; and a Bill is now passing . through Parliament for its further con- tinuance. " The law being thus unequivocal, and the sense of the Legislature thus deliberately pronounced, you have nevertheless thought fit, while bearing the commision of the peace and the Ake- of deputy-lieutenant for the county or Antrim. to attend and act as chairman of a meet ing at which certain resolutions were passed, entitled reso lutions of the Lisburn Orangemen, and of which the fol lowing passage forms a part :---‘ Resolved, that we deem it essential to take immediate steps to re-organise the Orange Institution in this county, and that the county secretary be forthwith requested to convene a county meeting: " His Excellency cannot reconcile your concurrence in such a resoletion, and your acting as chairman at such a meeting, with the duties incumbent on you as a jusice of the peace or as a deputy-lieutenant. "As a magistrate, you should carefully guard and warn the people against breach of the law, should they appear likely to violate it. You have incited them to re-organise societies which the law prohibits. " As a deputy •lieutenant, you should be an ail to the lieutenant of your county in all lawful measures tending to preserve its peace. You have encouraged assemblies, the result of which, in an adjoining county, has been a formidable affray, attended with loss of life. "In allowing the Act,to expire which prohibited party processions in Ireland, her Majesty reposed a willing confidence in the loyalty and good sense of her Irish subjects. That confidence has not, in the main, been disappointed. Successrul exertions have been made by many of the most enlightened, pa'riotic, and influential of the magistracy and gentry towards the prevention of armed displays tending to excite breach of the peace, to alarm the peaceable, and to perpetuate discord ; and the country has had the advantage of owing their discon tinuance, not to the penalties of an Act of Parliament., but to the laudable discretion and loyalty of the people. " Among those who have thus merited the approba tion of her Majesty, and the gratitude of their country, ou have not been found. On the contrary, you are among the few of your station who have concurred in advising the renewal of an illegal association, whose proceedings have heretofore given occasion to frequent and sanguinary conflicts between different classes of her Majest,'s subjects, of the lamentable character of that which has recently occurred in the city of Armagh. " Under these circumstances his Excellency feels bound to deprive you, as far as in him lies, of an influ ence and authority derivable from the offices you have hitherto held under the Crown ; and a letter has been addressed to the lieutenant of the county of Antrim, intimating your removal from the office of deputy lieutenant. " The Lord Chancellor has your conduct under his consideration with reference to your commission of the peace. " It is not without feelings of extreme regret that his Excellency has arrived at the decision now announced to you. " He has been informed that you have attained to an advanced age, possessed of the respect and esteem of thwe by whom you are surrounded. " It is painful to his Excellency to place a mark of dis approbation where it set mid so unlikely to be culled for ; it is equally l ainful to him to deprive a gentleman of a trust which he has long enjoy ed, and of which he has been hitherto considered entirely deserving. " But in proportion to the station and rank in which you are placed, and to the esteem with which your general conduct has invested you, must be the effect pro:luced by your precepts and example is the county where you hold an office of trust under the Crown; and his Excellency feels bound in your instance to demon strate to the public that it is his firm determination to be influenced by no other considerations, in the exercise of the functions with which he is invested, than those which relate to the tnaintenanc , ?, of the law and the pro motion of the public welfare in that part of her Majesty's dominions in which the supreme authority has been com mitted to his charge.—l have the honour to be, Sir, ' your most obedient servant, (Signed) E. LUC AS. " James Watson, Esq." THE ARMY. DUBLIN, AUG. 10.—Brevet Lieut.-Colonel Vander. meulen shortly succeeds to the command of the 73d, b) the appointment of Colonel Love to the Adjutant Generalcy of Ireland, at preseat filled by Colonel E Napier. _ The 66'h Regiment, under Lient.-Col.,nel Goldie, arrived at Gibraltar from Cork on the 22d July, in the R , lsistance troop ship. Captain Lord Char:es Kerr is tranfferred from the extra to the ordinary staff of Aides-de-camp to thq Lord- Lieutenant's establishment. CORK, A UG. 9.—DUEL PREVENTED.—A rencontre took place on Thursday evening between two gentlemen, which it was feared would have terminated in a hostile meet ing. The facts of the case, as we have heard, are as follows :—The parties alluded to are Mr. Silver Charles Oliver, of Sun-lodge, and Mr. Edmund I3urke, of Prospect. The latter was riding home to his residence from this city on the evening named, and when about rounding the corner of Ship-street, leading to the Glanmire-road, he observed three ladies passing towards the Packet office. Mr. Burke instantly pulled up his horse to allow the ladies to cross, and before he had time to move on, Mr. Oliver, with another gentleman, drove up in his gig. The gig came in contact with Mr. Burke's horse, and struck him on the quarter. Mr. Burke's horse rushed forward into Ship-street, and an altercation ensued between the gentlemen of such a nature that it induced a gentleman present, uncon nected with either, to report the circumstances to the Mayor, when informations that a duel was apprehended were sworn. A warrant was immediately handed to head-constable Condon. We were informed that, on Thursday night Mr. Oliver was arrested at his residence by the active head-constable above•named, brought to Cork, and made to enter into the recessary recognizances before the Mayor to keep the peace. Yesterday morning, about half past five o'clock, Mr. Burke was also arrested, and on being taken before his Worship he entered into similar recognizance,. THE IRISH NAVAL SQUADRON.—Her Majesty's ship Tartarus, Captain Wolfe, has returned to Carrigaholt bay, to ri stAle her survey. The Stromboli, Captain Fisher, R.N., has returned to her moorings at Tarbert, in the Shannon. The experimental squadron, cons sting of eight large ships of the line, is expected to arrive at Cork about the 16th inst. SUGAR. (From the Landwz Gazette of Tuesday.) At the Court at Buckingham Palace, the Bth day of Aug us t, 1845—present, the Queen's Most Excellent Majesty in Council. Whereas by an Act, paned in the session of Parliament held in the Sth and 9th years of the reign of her present Majesty, entitled " An Act for granting to her Majesty, for a term to he limited, certain duties on sugar imported into the United Kingdom," it is, amongst other things, enacted, that from and after the 14th day of March, 1845, until the 51h day of July, 1846, there should be charged, amongst other duties of Cus toms, the following, that is to say— On sugar, the growth and produce of China, Java, or Ma nilla, or of any foreign country, the sugars of which her Nlz jesty in Council shall have declared, or may hereafter declare to be admissible as not being the produce of slave labour, and which shall be imported into the United Kingdom either from the country of its growth or from some British possession, The Marquis of Conyngham, in the Flower of Yarrow, carne to anchor at Tarbert, on Tues day, and pulled over in his gig to Kilrush, where he visited Colonel Vandeleur, and thence proceeded to Kil!tee, where he remained two hours—the first visit to his large hereditary estate on the western coast of Clare—and next afternoon had the pleasure of enjoying the beautiful scenery at both sides or the river, as he sailed up the Shannon to Limerick. There was a public meeting at Galway on Thursday, convened by the Sheriff, to memorialise the Crow❑ to select Galway as the site for a provincial college. The Corporation of Cork voted 201. for the sufferers by the Ballinhassig affray with the police—Lord Lis towel, 51. ; Carew O'Grady, Esq.. 31. ; and Father Mathew, 11.
