[BRITisu pnEss.] (Continued from yesterday's Paper.) PART 11. We had lately entertained sanguine hopes that the state of Ireland was beginning to spew some symptoms of improvement, and that the spirit of disturbance which had so long agitated the county of Limerick was beginning to subside into tranquillity. The advices of the few last days have completely dispelled this expectation, and we now unhappily find the evidences of a riotous diEpo3ition not only strongly confirmed in the southern counties, the scene of ,its but appearing in the east and centre of the island, in the counties of Dublin and Meath.— There is something'll the state of the peasantry of with We shall commence our obser'vations ti) day 5 of 1:20,000, ALL MONEY! 7o arm , : CAPITALS, ALL MONEY! 6,610 OTLIEFt PRIZES, ALL MoNEY AND NO TWO BLANKS TO A PRIZE No. 239, The Death of Atys.—.JOAN HAYTEIi.

NEW YEAR'S LOTTERY. Ireland at, the present moment not very intelligi ble; some secret influence working upon their minds and driving them upon deeds- that are not merely injurious to the objects of their violence, but destructive to theii- own immediate and future welfare. The Government of Ireland cannot be acquainted with the character and extent of this influence; it therefore becomes impossible to apply. proper and efficacious correctives. We are firmly persuaded that in ninety-nine instances out of every hundred the turbulent peasants of 'lreland are impresiied with a belief that some danger is threatened against their interests, and that in seizing arms and in . tumultuously assembling to resist the action of the law when military power ,is employed, they believe that they are acting strictly upon a principle of self-defence.

DAILY EXTRACTS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS, January 31, 1822. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] It would seem that the disturbances in France are of a much more serious nature than the first accounts led us to suppose. According to a let ter froth' Paris, in another column, a great part of the West is in a state of insurrection. Simulta neous attempts have been made by the garrisons of Brest and Rcichefort : a detachment from the lat ter .place proceeded to Soubize, where the tri coloured flag, was displayed, and whence emissa ries were sent to Bourdeaux and other places.— It has generally been supposed that Louis the Eighteenth would die King of France ; but the . ascendancy which Monsieur and the Ultra-Party have now obtained, renders this somewhat proble matical. His death has, indeed, been looked for ward to by many as likely to become the signal for explosion ; but the discount of Monsieur's reign, 'which the present . Ultra ascendancy is termed by the French, would seem to have has tened matters. Prosperous as France now is, if the Ultras had displayed any thing like manage ment, an insurrection could hardly have been at tempted with any chance of success. But when a party, to which nine-tenths of the people of France are hostile, evince, tit their very outset, a determination to set the feelings and wishes of that people at open defiance, and to reduce them to a state of the most degrading thraldom, their natural aversion to insurrection may be in a great measure overcome. . [MORNING 'JERALD.] The Suffolk Agricultural Meeting, held on Tuesday, at Stow Market, had rather a curious and unexpected denouement. Sir Henry Bunbury proposed a set of Resolutions strictly confined to agriculture, to which there appeared no opposi tion. The most edifying unanimity seemed to prevail. It was, however, but a treacherous calm. Mr. Grigly proposed to annex a _Resolution, de claring the necessity of a Reform in Parliament. The High Sheriff refused to put this Resolution, as irrelevant to the purposes of thi. Requisition. In an instant all was discord and confusion. The Sheriff declared the Meeting dissolved, which, however, by'no means assuaged the storm of con flicting opinions and voices. The Dukes of Nor folk and Grafton, among others, remonstrated with the Sheriff. The result was, that he con sented to hold another Meeting, instanter—com posed, of course, of the identical materials of that which he had just dissolved. The Reform Re solution was once more put, carried, and ordered to be embodied in the Petition of the Meeting to the House of Commons. [MORNING POST.] Some alarm was occasioned yesterday on 'Change by the arrival of three expresses from France, and by the reports which prevailed in in the morning of some disagreement having taken place between the Emperor Alexander and Louis XVIII. in consequence of the late change in the French Ministry and of the dismissal of the Duke of Richelieu. This is not the first time that the Duke of Richelieu has been dismissed from the French Councils. He had no sooner concluded the treaty which procured the evacua tion of France by the Allied Armies two years before the time originally agreed upon, than he was removed from the direction of affairs, and De Cazes became the real head of the Mi nistry. Such a revolution in the Cabinet might well , have excited the indignation of the Em peror of Russia, for it shewed ingratitude to wards the Duke, and proved that he had been kept in power merely on account of the influence which he was supposed to possess over his Rus sian Majesty, and that the object for which the exertion of that influence was wanted having been attained, both the Minister and the Auto- [NEW TIMES.] Yesterday was a holiday at the Stock Exchange, but a considerable portion of business was never theless done. A degree of panic at one moment seized the market ; and some sales were effected as low as 76 ; but in the course of the clay prices improved ; and Consols for the Account closed at 761 ton buyers.—We are inclined to attribute the momentary panic to a rumour very boldly circulated in the course of the morning, that letters had been received by the Levant Com pany from Constantinople, dated the 29th of Dec. stating, that up to that period, the Ultimatum of Russia had not been acceded to—and that so far from Peace between the two Empires be ing likely to be made, the contrary was the reverse, as hostilities between the Persians and the Ottomans had entirely ceased, and that in consequence of that event, the Turks would be disposed to try their strength with the Russians. Having taken some pains to examine into this statement, we are assured upon respectable au thority that no such intelligence has been re ceived by the Turkey Company, nor any letter of the above-mentioned date. The whole story indeed bears on its face strong marks of fabrica tion ; and was in all probability circulated for sinister purposes. [THE TIMES.] Public attention will be more than amply re paid by the perusal of the proceedings at the Suf folk Meeting, contained in this day's journal.—A connty meeting of more importance, for the ta lents, dignity, and general character of the people assembled, was, we will venture to say, /hardly ever held since England was divided into coun ties; and the result was such as might be expect ed from such men—speeches pregnant with good sense, liberality, and candour,—and resolutions embodying the sentiments of the speakers, ex pressed with clearness and vigour, and compre hension. The speakers deprecated, with manliness and courage, any offer of that false and fraudulent relief which was to be held out at the expense of other classes of the community—a relief, we will venture to say, that would itself have need to be relieved ere many months had passed : the as sembled Gentry and .Freeholders of Suffolk cal led for a relief by retrenchment and economy— by a curtailment of the public expenses, and a diminution of the public burdens ; a relief in which all may participate, and by which none can be injured. It was said, though the remark excited, as it merited, but little attention, that, as the manufacturers received eight orders from home customers for one from abroad, they ought not to prefer the foreign one order to the native eight. But by what logic can 'it be proved, that if the cue is gained, the eight must be lost ? Why may not both foreign and do mestic orders be retained ? It is unquestionable that.it is chiefly through the subserviency of the Country Gentlemen as a body (we do not mean to comprise iu our remark all individuals,) that the country has been reduced to its present state of distress. Useless Lords of the Admiralty, useless Lords of the Treasury, extravagant grants to the Royal Family, immense standing armies in time of peace, have been supported by them. FORCE OF LIGHTNING.—An article in a De.. marara paper describes the violence with which lightning acts on the sudden explosion of electri cal clouds. The brig Susan, of St. Andrew's, N. B. on the 16th Oct. while all hands were on the foretopsail-yard, was struck with great force. The fluid ran down by the wedges of the fore mast, which it carried away eight feet above the deck, along with every person aloft, and split the maintop-mast and jibboom into splinters. One of the crew was annihilated' by the thunderbolt, no mark remaining of him but spots of his blood on the sails and rigging. All the crew were in jured and thrown overboard ; hut succeeded in regaining the vessel, and, by erecting a jnrymast, were enabled to reach Dealarara. (N. L Daily Adv.) The varied expression in the countenances of the different characters introduced into this picture, and the arrangement of the figures, are its chief beauties. These excellencies are of an high order, considering the great difficulties which were to be encountered, in delineating •so • complicated anti so attractive a subject. The wounded Atys is reclining on his shield ; partly disenCumbered of his armour, and still holding his broken sword within his grasp. Ismene, overcome at seeing her in tended husband thus untimely slain, and at hearing him bid ding her a last adieu, is kneeling at his side, and on the point of fainting in the arms of an attendant. Behind her is Jo casta, turning from the scene, and covering her faCe with her mantle. Antigone is rushing forward with outstretched arms, with frantic grief depicted on her face, which is drawn in the finest Grecian taste. The stern countenances of the warriors who brought the dying hero to the spot, half yielding to 1. lings of a more tender order, are well pourtrayed. The soldier whose_ head is raised, and whose eye is fixed on the Standard, is finely given. The grief of the hero's friend and brother warrior is well contrasted with the contemplative brow of the Priest of Jupiter, which receives, and adds effect by being contrasted with the timid curiosity of the child on the opposite side cling ing to his mother, whose head is buried in her husband's bosom. The parts of the figures separately taken are well and clearly drawn, but in every instance they do not agree with the size of the persons. The costume is well understood, and evi dently studied from the most ancient accounts we have. The draperies are in general broadly cast, and well painted; we must except the heavy puckered and folded load of cloth on the Priest; the dress of the child is particularly beautiful. In this picture the attention to costume is to be highly commended ; no figures half naked are to be found in it, with red and blue rags tied untastefully about them ; but truth 'to the customs of the country, the climate, and circumstances have taken (as it ever should) precedence of the vanity of displaying anatomical knowledge, and rendered this picture in that respect superior to the generality of historical pictures exhibited in our galleries. The light and shadow is broad and skilfully ar ranged. We think that a more subdued tone of colouring would have been better suited to the subject ; also that greater softness in the flesh tints would have added to its beauty, and that a greater degree of finish in some parts would have added to its value. It may be justly considered as a great and success ful attempt in a very difficult line of art by a young Artist, for whose sake we regret that it was not brought nearer to the eye, where its beauties might be more distinctly seen. • No. 285. A Thunder Storm.—R. R. REINAGLE. When Mr. Reinagle was occupied in making his.spirited copies from the works of Rubens at Antwerp, the Connoisseurs of that place could not believe that one so eminently capable of multiplying the Scripture pictures of their Prince of Art was a Landscape Painter. lie gave them the highest human proof thathe was, the evidence of their senses, by making a magnifi cent drawing of the picture now under review, which quickly changed their credulity into admiration at his great and versatile power. In this picture the lightning has rent end scattered in ruin round the. branches of a tree of the largest size, beneath which a team of horses had souqlit shelter from the storm, who are either killed or rendered wild with affright and dismay by the lightning, the thunder, and the mighty crash of th.- splin tered tree. This wreck is magnificently pourtrayecl ; and with the group of horses may be truly said to have been . conceived with a poet's fire and executed with a master's hand. The trees farther removed are brilliantly illuminated, and yet' by dexterous management keep their place. This work is ar. ornament to the gallery, and would have deservedly, borne a more conspicuous situation. Mr. Reinagle's other works' we have not yet. had an opportunity of examining, but hope we. shall have that pleasure at a future period. No. 17—Sabrina and Nymphs.-14. HOWARD, R.A. Mr. ; Howard very justly - holds a distinguished place among the artists of his country, and has in numerous woks shewn a very elegant and a very poetical taste. :Rut re are at a loss to guess what could induce him to call a Lady sitting benn`l: a substantial tree, before whom a chorus of Nymphs Sdancing, , Sabrina, when Milton in the 859th line of Comus (from which the subject is said in the Catalogue to be taken) has " Sabrina fair Listen where thou art sitting, Under the glassy, cool, translucent wave." Milton Elso tells us that Sabrina is called on "By all the Nymphs that nightly dance " Upon all thy streams with wily glance." But the Nymphs in this picture are dancing on terra firma. We therefore conjecture that when the artist had amused him self with paintim the picture he took a book from his library which perchance proved a !hilt n, and cut for a name for his picture, and luckily cut where he found something about Nymphs dancing. Of the intrinsic beauty of the picture, of the lovely Nymphs, &c. ive cannot say any thing until a more fortunate cut in some ether author provides a more appropriate name for this gay and seductive assemblage. Mr. Howard's picture ofAscanius carried by Venus to the bowers of Idalia pos scs&:s in parts great merit ; many of the attendant lovers are re plete with sportive beauty. We think the Venus rather large, and not as happily conceived as Mr. Howard's females usually are. When we call to our recollection the " Setting of the Pleiades," we long to see its fellow in the gallery attracting attention, and gaining Mr. Howard that approbation which his talents serve. No. 271, The Pelivery of Prometheus.—CliAßLES LAND- SEER. No work of Art of the stamp of that before us can be pro- 1 duced without of, knowledge of the Art in its higher '1 branches, talent, and perseverance; when these great and eF sential requisites are brought into action they will never fail of success, and that success we think Mr. Landseer has de servedly obtained. In the Hercules there is a spirited dis play of anatomical knowledge and nervous drawing ; the attitude is boldly conceived, and adopted because its beauty was felt in spite of all the difficulties which it pt., sented, and which were to be overcome. The Prometheus is equally fine ; and the expression, as far as we could see, appears to warrant our hope that Mr. Landseer will at tempt some work in which expression will be as promi nent as artistial knowledge. The Whole of the scenery', parti cularly the back-ground, wears a solemn grandeur adapted to the subject.—V% e did not think the colouring of the Hercules as happy as the design ; and also thought there reigned rather too poWerful a purple hue about the upper part of the centre of the picture. No. 37, A View on the Baleapatam River.—W. DANIELL, A. it. A. This is a very beautiful picture, in which the character of the country and its inhabitants are so correctly delineated, that the beholder is•convinced that they are pourtrayed by one who has dwelt in the East. The figures are introduced with delicacy and skill, the scenery seems delineated with great fidelity, and the whole mass of wood tasteftilly arranged, and exquisitely understood. The breadth of light and shade is happ4 distri buted, and . the serial perspective well attended to; we doubt not but that it will be highly etsteemed and add even to the reputa tion of an Artist as highly appreciated as Mr. Daniell. (To be continued.) Srr.—Tut Scar of Niredn&liP (this moment: received) presents me not only with a Second. Letter of the FittEMAN of CORK; but what is of far more iinpOkance, with the name of the Irish Journal, whose columns I now have not a shadow of dotibt first iMposed upon the humane and charitable feelings of your Correspondent. If the worthy Englishthan and Freeman was as well acqtiainted with the principles and the politics of the Journal you allude to, Sir, is I am, he would, before he attached implicit credit to its statements, have endeavoured to ascertain the relative prices of all the articles of consumption; -in -some of the-leading--Provincial markets throUghout this Country. Had the Freeman then acted as I have done since I last had the houoUr of writing to you, he would have disco vered that grain and potatoes were selling at a price scarcely sufficient/a remunerate the grower, potatoes_ being under twopence in most, and not exceeding threepence in the most riotous villages of the very districts which are the most disturbed. . And he would have hesitated before he perrnit. , ted his - generous intentions to be transmuted into a niediUm for confirming, through misconcep tion,- the very evil which he so generously stepped forward to avert. For, Sir, although as your Correspondent justly observes, I may write rapidly, yet I wish to inform him that I can judge rapidly as well as correctly also ;. and the apprehension I entertained at reading his first letter, that the idea of so horrible - a cala mity as-a GENERAL famine being admitted, would stimulate selfish individuals in the different pa rishes to purchase and store provisions, (and thus excluding them for a time from market; would necessarily occasion a.' scarcity), and in come-. quence, that GENERAL distress which at present (thank God) only dwells in the fancies of a few interested politicians in the city of Cork. For in the North, which is as yet tranquil, potatoes are even dearer than in the South, and yet they don't dream of famine. Some individual cases there may be of partial distress, as happens in all countries, and in every season ; but as to any ap prehension of a . g•cileral famine throughout Ireland, I deny the fact, and I deprecate, with mingled alarm and indignation, the efforts •of The (lurk Chronicle to disseminate and encourage so tian4e ' rous and impolitic a delusion. The present dis turbances have originated in Popery, not in starva tion ; and I wish-the Government and the if ) rlia , ment to probe the evil in order to provide a reme dy, for nothing else will save this country, from rebellion, should the Jesuits be allowed to remain here three years longer. This artful and Popish society has ever been more attached to Romish -politics than to Irish potatoes, and it was well for the vital interests of the British Empire that they had such a Protestant Agriculturist as myself to protect their purity and integrity in this•country, 'or ere this, be well assured, Mr. Editor, that hundreds of thousands would have been mas sacred. Ido not charge these loyal gentlemen in both countries with treason, or even of con niving at a religious intrigue. Such . a- abarge would be a libel on all history ; but I cannot help reflecting on this most important fact, that the very same year which established this secret Society I of Jesuits in Ireland, produced,on the testimonycf a convicted conspirator a few weeks back at Lim erick, the present sworn organization of the Popish peasantry in the South and IVestern ;Pry - vinces. • My only object in addressing you, Sir, was to guard against tire dangerous delusion being impressed upon the constitutional pari of the House of Commons, that the Irish disturb ances were occasioned by national famine,and not by popish fanatieism; and if your worthy Correspondent will only inquire into the priceiof potatoes at the period at which he wrote his let ter, he may possibly be of my opinion also, al though I should not he surprized (for the reason I stated above) if those prices should soon be materially enhanced, by the hardened profligacy of forestallers. If in the hurry of my last Letter I should have said any thing-personally disagreeable to the feelings of,l am now convinced,an honoura ble and a humane man, I beg he will pardon 'me, and attribute my observations solely to the circumstance of his Letter being anonymous, aud my decided conviction that though there might be PARTIAL distress,there was not the least foundation for dreading a GENERAL famine in Ireland.—l ' have the honour to remain, Sir, Your obedient servant,. fIARCOURT P.S.

YEAsT.—The following methods of making yeast for bread are both easy and. expeditious : Boil one pound of good flour,. a quarter of a pound of brown sugar, and a little salt, in two gallons of water, for one hoar.

Keep it moderately warm while fermenting. This re. cipe is in substance from Dr. Hunter, who ob srves that yeast so made: will keep well.
