Bear thou that Great Eliza in thy mind, Who from a wreck this fabric* edified ; And HER who to a nation's voice resign'd, When Rome in hope its vilest engines piled, By her own heart, and righteous Heaven approv'd, Stood up against the father whom she lov'd. Laying all mean regard aside, fill Thou Her seats with wisdom and with learned worth ; That so. whene'er attack'd, with fearless brow, Her champions may defend her rights on earth ; Linked is her welfare closely with thine own, One fate attends the Altar and the Throne ! Think not that lapse of ages shall abate The inveterate malice of that Harlot old; Fall'u tho' thea.deem'st her from her high estate, She proffers still the envenom'd cup of gold, And her fieree,Beast, whose names are blasphemy, 'The:fiame that was, is still, and still must be. The stern Sectarian in unnatural league Souls her to war against their hated foes Error and Faction aid the bold intrigue, And the dark Atheist seeks her overthrow, While giant seal in arms against her stands, Barks with an hundred mouths, and lifts an hundred hands `a Built os a rock the fabric may repel 4.N"Their utmost rage, if all within be sound; s But if, within the gates, Indifference dwell, -e Woe to her then ! there needs no outward wound ! eThro' her whole frame benumb'd, a lethal sleep, 'Like the cold poison of the asp, will creep. In thee, as in a cresset set on high. The light of Piety should shine far seen, A guiding beacon fiz'd for every eye : Thus, from the influence of an honoured Queen, :4 A.: from its spring, should public good proceed,— Pine Peace of Heaven will be thy proper meed, 'Stishould return that happy state of yore, Wlaea piety and joy went hand in hand; ~The love which to his flock the shepherd bore, , The old.obserrances which cheer'd the land.

' l inen Mr. O'Connell was accused of the utterance of althi'surrectionary speech at Carlow, in which, after ask ing the men of Carlow were they ready, he declared the time had come when " blood must be shed"—he evaded the eharge by denying the use of the words ascribed to frith in the official report; and this self-testimony was Cylifirmed, to the utmost of its extent, in a written do cument signed by the titular Bishop of Ossory, Doctor Nolan, Mr. •T. Naughton, J. P., several Roman Catho lic priests, and the high sheriff elect, Mr. G.R. Keogh, Wh&bad all been guests at the dinner where the speech naiatteied. 4 alio. disclaimer in both cases was equa ll y guar d e d , • and extended to no more than the actual words : and atthopgh 'neither Mr. O'Connell himself, nor any of thbliftty,''ever offered a more genuine version of the p4s — "saiie, the limited denial to w hi c h we h ave re f erre d, • was, received by Lord Normanby as a sufficient justifi catiotr of his subsequently entertaining Mr. O'Connell at the Castle ; and as a conclusive reply to those who urged the dismissal of that gentleman from the bench of magistrates. The matter rested so, until, on the examination of Captain Vignoles before the , late Committee of the Lords, the fact was again elicited and established, that Mr. O'Connell had actually used the words at first at trilibuted to him. And now comes forward Mr. George Rous Keough with a letter, addressed to the editor of the Carlow Sentinel, and admitting that something of the kind was said, gives what he asserts to be the " exact words, or very nearly so, which were spoken" on. that occasion. ,Having perused the new version with very great care, we profess ourselves so unable to perceive any difference in Mr. O'Connell's favour, that thinking it an aggravation of the passage rather than a mitigation, m, , 6shall submit both to the judgment of the public in juxtafposition . _ - O,OL.PI'AIN VIGNOLES'SREPORT OF MR.

We have now no course left us but thatwhich I have hitherto deprecated, the shedding of blood. —Blood must be shed." MR. GEORGZ Rous KEOGH'S REPORT OF MR. O'CON NELL'S LANGUAGE. (Dated August 27, 1839.) If men could not, after having exhausted every consti tutional and moral means of obtaining their liberties and rights—much as he deprecated the shedding of blood—if blood must be shed ! it were better to let it flow at first, than after they had submitted their necks to the yoke of the oppressor." In one report (Captain Vignole's) the time of blood shedding is indefinite ; in the other (Mr. G. R. Keogh's) it 14 . fixed and at hand. In the former, men are left to deal with the question according to their sense of pub lic justice ; in the latter, they are urged forward by their partial apprehensions. But in both the sentiment isldentical ; and if the utterer should be dismissed froth the commission of the peace, or be subjected to a legal prosecution upon the one, he is equally obnoxious to punishment on the other. In the words of our Carlow contemporary, "the distinction is without a dtfftr4:lice," so much so "that two p ro f ess i ona l re fteja, engaged to take down the speech in shorthand, c‘o44 not more fully express the meaning of the ora tonAhan the reports of Captain Vignoles and Mr. KeOgle—the language varies very slightly, but both Vreserved the meaning attached to Mr. O'Connell's • I Ay,itli great fidelity." should now be done ?

OF TIIIC TIIRT-BOGS OF IRILLAND.— Formerly Ireland. was a vast forest ; so powerful was the vegetation there.thai it was called " the island of wood." It is now st destitute of trees ' • and when on a fine day in spring q)c.ars, though bare, full of sap and youth, it seems like a young and lovely girl deprived, of her hair. It is not exactly known at what time and by what process this great destruction was effected. We may, however, be assured, thsltit was before the Christian era, and probably at a much more distant daty. Some attribute it to an extraordi nary inerelation, which uprooted the trees, levelled the forests, and buried them in the bosom of the earth. Others, whose opinion is better supported by scientific study, believe that the ruin of the forests was the result of violent storms. When the lofty forests that covered the country were cozy! pact 'and entire, they afforded each other mutual support against the violence of the tempests ; but, in proportion as a man requiring an open space for his house and field effected clearances here and there, the trees near those that had been cut down were without support against the fury of the hur ricane; and tell before blasts that were previously powerless; every Tutti occasioned by a tempest produced a thousand others, rendered more easy as they were multiplied ; the work of destruction went on, and all the fallen trunks, de re:el-sling 'by , the natural declivities to the lakes and the toky , part of the soil, were stopped on this liquid base, *here, heaped one abore the other, year after year, they were mingled together, some preserving their natural form, oti r thillecimposing into vegetable matter, until they formed tisitt apongy, combustible substance, sometimes red and soltettienes black, of which the vast turf-bogs of Ireland are dosed.— Beaumont's Ireland, translated by Dr. Taylor. • i;., 4 `tiQUIRES" Os' Geo.—At the age of fourteen the title or.squiee" was conferred on the youthful aspirant (to the honour of chivalry.)

From nurnatovent.t, or the nay* of Ciiirairy, POPERY AND THE IRISH CORPORATIONS. TO THE RIGHT HON. THE LORD MAYOR, THE MEMBERS OF THE CORPORATION, THE FREEMEN OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN, AND ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN. LETTER 11. My Lord Mayor and Brethren,—lt is an amusing thing to hear Mr. O'Connell talk of liberty. In one of his late let ters I think he spoke of Englishmen being slaves, because only one in a hundred of them, or so, possessed the elective franchise. Would the learned gentleman be so kind as to state what popish countries they are in which the people have any franchise at all—any parliament or any constitution, derived from popery, as ours are, confessedly, derived from protestantism ? lam reminded, through the learned gen tleman, of old Andrew Fuller. He used to express very loudly his indignation againit the infidel philosophers of his day, who were in the habit of composing elaborate systems of what they called natural religion, treating of the unity of God, the nature of spirits, the character and moral duties of mankind, all derived, as they said, from the mere exercise of reason, without any assistance from Scripture. " These fellows," observed the worthy divine, " imbibing the popular sentiments, grow fat upon the pastures of Revelation, and then ignorantly and proudly attribute their increase to reason and philosophy." Just so it is with our papists. They breathe our protestant atmosphere—they imbibe the spirit of our constitutional liberty—that liberty which has sprung from our protestant principles ; that glory in a state of mind as native to their system, which is absolutely foreign from it, and truly protestant in its origin—and they then taunt us with not being free ourselves, and use the very liberty which they derive from us to build up that popery that would crush both us and them. I verily believe that Mr. O'Connell does not himself perceive that the success of his measures and the progress of his principles would lead to the total overthrow of liberty amongst us. 'We, who are freemen " whom the truth makes free," know better. Therefore, amongst other reasons, it is that we oppose him. Freedom is the birthright of protestants—and that because their principles are self-governing principles—principles which at once teach duty, and dispose to the fulfilment of it, which, making every individual run as a freeman in the way of wisdom, render the acts of a community composed of such freemen wise and holy. Britain is free, because she is protestant. Our press is !ree, because there is nothing to be feared from its liberty. Inquiry is free, because it can only lead to faith. Infidels, heretics, and papists are free, because we know that truth must triumph in spite of them. Whereas, the very nature of popery renders slavery essen tial to it. Now, do we desire to preserve our liberties, and the manifold advantages that have flowed from them—the glory, the power, the opportunities for blessing the whole world that this protestant empire possesses ? If we do we must bestir ourselves, for they are in jeopardy at this present moment. But allow me to bring the subject before you under two heads. I shall speak I. 'OF OUR DANGERS. IL I WILL POINT OUT THEIR REMEDY, AND SHOW ITS PRACTICABILITY. I. Then for our dangers. All who are acquainted with Scripture will admit that it reveals to us that the welfare of nations, and more particularly of such as profess to serve God, is made to depend upon the obedience that they render to the Divine will. "If they will not obey, I will utterly pluck up and destroy that nation, saith the Lord."—Jer. xii. 17. The whole course of scriptural history illultrates this threat. We there find the people of Israel raised up and preserved for our instruction. Their history is given to us by the Holy Ghost himself, and that history shows us that when ever they fell away from God they were visited with calamity, disaster, and overthrow. It has been well and wisely remarked by that distinguished ornament of our times, the great Doctor Croly, that " THERE IS NO DAY OF JUDGMENT FOR NA TIONS." Nations, as such, receive their behests here : " The Lord shall send .upon thee cursing, vexation, and re buke, in all that then settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly ; because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me."—Deut. xxviii., 20. Here is the universal and awful result of national declension from God. And, indeed, this is the result which, in the natural course of things, must follow. The wisdom of God has so con structed society as that the ordinary working of cause and effect accomplishes the astonishing denunciations of His re vealed word. Ungodliness gives rise to vice, wickedness and practical iniquity. These weaken, distract, and overthrow commu nities. 1. Remember that the protestant doctrine is, that a man is not the author of his own good works. We account good works to be the gift of God. This is the doctrine of Scrip ture itself. "It is not in man that walketh to direct his steps."—Jer. x., 23. " Every good gift and every perfect gift cometh down from on high."—James i., 17. We hold, that if God withdraw his grace from us, we are liable to plunge into all the depths of crime. 2. What is it in Christian nations that keeps the wicked in awe—that makes them tremble at the violation of just laws ? It is the terrors of the Almighty whom they know not—the pressure of his invisible arm. "It is God," said David, "who subdueth my people under me."—Psalm, cxliv., 2. Let God in wrath withdraw his terrors from the wicked, and the immediate sesult will be rebellions, insur rections, and popular commotions. Look at Israel under Solomon—all was peace, all tranquility, so long as he served the Lord ; but he abandoned his service, " and the Lord was angry with Solomon because his heart was turned from the Lord God of Israel, and the Lord STIRRED UP AN AD VERSARY unto Solomon, Hadad, the Edomite—and the Lord stirred him up ANOTHER ADVERSARY, Re zon, the son of Eliadah." Mark ! these were a couple of agitators—they were the agitators of the day—the O'Con nell's, O'Conners, O'Briens (all great O's) and the Ste phenses of earlier times—" there is nothing new under the sun"—they were agitators—" gathering men unto them," and baffling even the wisdom of Solomon in his endeavours to crush them, and, lest these should not be sufficient to dis tract and disturb the country, a third, more able than either, is added to them—" Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, whose mo ther's name was Zeruah, a widow woman, even he lifted up his hand, against the King—"—l Kings, xi., 8, 9,14, 23, 26. And what was the result of all this? Why the result was, that in a short time the kingdom of Israel, from having been the most powerful in the then world, rent, torn, convulsed, the prey of the surrounding states, became as contemptible as it had previously been exalted in glory. Ab, my brethren, we must " become fools that we may be wise." I tell you, that until our drivelling statesmen come like little children to their Bibles for wisdom, we need ex pect nothing but wretchedness and calamity in the land. Does not this unerring word of truth that I have brought be fore you, picture out to you the state of things in Britain at the present day ? We have, in the heart of the empire, tumult and confu sion ; Ireland in such a state that it may he expected to ex plode at any moment, while the enemy stands ready to de vour us in distant places. And, give me leave to ask you, is it any wonder that things should be thus, that Great Britain should be rent to pieces with dissensions ? No ; the wonder would be if it were otherwise. The legislature acts on the principles of infidelity. They declare that they are not to be guided by religious principle in deli- decisions—that religion has nothing to do with civil polity—that religion, in fact, is not to enter into the consi deration of civil questions. Now, I beg to ask if our law givers are warranted in disregarding the a ord of God in their dealings with the people, why should not the people be war ranted in disregarding the same word in their dealings with their lawgivers and such like? The word of God says (to take one case out of many] that rulers " are set for the praise of them that do well ;" 1 Peter ii. 14. That is to say, for the promotion of them that do well; but our rulers trample that holy word beneath their feet, and treat it with contempt. ACCORDING TO LAW, mind that, O'Loghlen, Ball, and the rest of you! according to law— The Attorney-General of Ireland is an IDOLATER. The Master of the Rolls is an IDOLATER. The Lord Chief Baron of the Exchequer is an IDOLA TER. The Fourth Justice of the Court of Common Pleas is an IDOLATER. The Chief Remembrancer is an IDOLATER. One of the Chief Commissioners of Police is an IDOLA TER. The Assistant Barrister for Louth is an IDOLATER. The Assistant Barrister for Kilkenny is an IDOLATER. The Assistant Barrister for Tipperary is an IDOLATER. The Assistant Barrister for the King's County is an IDO LATER. But in fact it would be impossible, within the limits of a moderate publication, to enumerate the many cases of those whom the LAW OF THE LAND brands as guilty of " abominable idolatry," " detestable idolatry," " damnable idolatry," and yet who are elevated to posts of eminence, honour, and authority amongst us. Now I ask, if our go vernment thus sets at defiance the total word and will of God, how can they find fault with the commonalty in Eng land who by rebellion, bloodshed, and pillage, do nothing worse ? Oh, but then to commit these outrages is a viola tion of the laws of man as well! But what right has one man to impose laws upon another ?—if he do not derive it from the word of God, he must derive it from brute force. Now if the law-giver impose laws upon me simply by the right of force, I am warranted by his own principles in tram pling his laws beneath my feet the moment force enables me so to do. It is demonstrable that the state is constituted upon prin ciples at the present day which actually warrant the perpe tration of robbery, murder, adultery, rebellion, and every other enormity. I very little wonder, then, at the condition of things in England : they are precisely in keeping with the principles that are publicly acted on—professed and gloried in by our rulers. The socialists—that is the followers of Robert Owen —have established themselves in most of the great towns there—Manchester, Sheffield, Leeds, Birmingham, and London itself. They openly laugh the Bible to scorn. They have assemblies on Sundays, in which they dance, sing, and amuse themselves. They propagate their pernicious senti ments without disguise, and without apprehension. Is it any wonder, under these circumstances, that crime should abound—that chartism should be rampant and audacious— that the foundations of liberty and property should be sha ken ? But in what respect are the Owenites worse than the le gislature itself ? The legislature says, "We disregard reli gion in our conduct. It makes no matter to us what any man is—Jew, papist, Turk, or atheist ; we esteem all alike.' The Owenites say just the same thing. Mark, then. The principles of the state at the present day are calculated to demoralise the people, and if so, as before proved, necessa rily to destroy the country. Some one will, however, object, and say, " These are merely your own private opinions —this is simply your own private judgment as to the interpretation of the Scripture." Hear, then, the voice of the Church of England—our holy catholic and apostolic church—the true glory and bulwark of the land ; hear her voice, as spoken forth in her Homilies —her admirable Homilies—which, by the way, thanks be to God for it, are part and parcel of THE LAW. Thus, then, speaketh the church : " The evangelical prophet Isaiah, agreeing, with Christ's parable, doth teach us, saying, ' That God made a goodly vineyard for his beloved children ;'—lsaiah v.—` he hedged it, he walled it round about, he planted it with chosen vines, and made a turret in the midst thereof, and therein also a wine-press. And when he looked that it should bring forth good grapes, it brought forth wild grapes.' And after it fol loweth—` Now shall I show you (saith God) what I will do with my vineyard : I will pluck down the hedges, that it may perish : I will break down the walls, that it may be trodden under foot : I will let it lie waste, it shall not be cut, it shall not he digged, but briars and thorns shall overgrow it ; and I shall command the clouds that they shall no more rain upon it.'—Matthew xxi. By these threatenings we are monished and warned that if we, which are the chosen vineyard of God, bring not forth good grapes, that is to say, good works, that may be delectable and pleasant in his sight, when he looketh for them, when he sendeth his messengers to call upon us for them, but rather bring forth wild grapes, that is to say, sour works, unsweet, unsavoury, and unfruitful, then will he pluck away all defence, and suffer grievous plagues of FAMINE and BATTLE, DEARTH and DEATH, to light upon us. Finally, if these serve not, he will let us lie waste, he will give us over, be will turn away from us, he will dig and delve no more about us, he will let us alone, and suffer us to bring forth even such fruit as we will to bring forth, brambles, briars and thorns, ALL NAUGHTINESS, ALL VICE, and that so abundantly, that they shall clean overgrow us, choke, strangle, and UTTERLY DESTROY US." Fur ther on, continuing the same subject, we have—" He will take away from them the teaching of his holy word, so that they shall be NO LONGER OF HIS KINGDOM, they shall be NO LONGER GOVERNED BY HIS HOLY SPIRIT, they shall be put from the grace and benefits that they bad and ever might have enjoyed through Christ; they shall be deprived of the heavenly light and life, which they had in Christ, whilst they abode in him ; they shall be (as they were once) as men without God in this world, or rather in worse taking. And to be short, they shall be given into the POWER OF THE DEVIL, which beareth the rule in all them that be cast away from God, as he did in Saul and Judas, and generally in all such as work after their own wills, the children of mistrust and unbelief.-1 Samuel, xv."— (Homily of falling away from God, 2d part.) Here is the mind of the church of England and Ireland—here the voice of the nation, as expressed in unrepealed Am I not warranted, then, in saying that the godless, lati tudinarian, infidel principles which—aye, it shall be told—the Duke of Wellington and Sir R. Peel established in 1829, con trary to the expressed voice of the protestants of the kingdom, have infused a principle into the state which is absolutely working its destruction, and which, if it be allowed to con tinue, will utterly overthrow our constitution and liberties? There is one thing that I should like to test by the theory of the present day ; I mean the right of the Duke of Bedford, the father of Lord John Russell, to Woburn Abbey and its dependencies. I beg to ask Lord John Russell wherefore we should not esteem Woburn Abbey, with its manors, mes suages, lands, tenements, rents, meadows, woods, pastures, and other hereditaments, to be just precisely stolen goods? The monks, under the pretence of their being infected with idolatry, superstition, dangerous and damnable errors, the unfortunate monks were thrust out of Woburn Abbey, and the grandsire of Lord John Russell took possession thereof. But, according to the theory of Lord John Russell, popery should be no prejudice to any man, lay or clerical ; therefore, according to the aforesaid theory, the grandsire of Lord John Russell was just " a thief and a robber." And the present Duke of Bedford is in possession of stolen property—just stolen property—ay, my lord, nothing one whit more respec table than stolen goods—plunder, in fact ! Now, I ask why should a kingdom that tolerates such foul, unchristian, sa crilegious fraud be undisturbed ?—Why should not the peo ple at large, burning with indignation, arise as one man, seize by the throat this Bedford—this hereditary thief, and make him disgorge ? . Why should "he be allowed" to strut abroad and breed his lordlings in the green acres of the poor ? I, for my part, if I could think that popery were a correct sys tem—nay, more, if I could believe that it were a tolerable evil—that it were not an odious, soul-destroying, hell-born thing—l would feel myself warranted, as a citizen of the state, in even taking up arms to wrench from such hereditary robbers their ill-acquired prey. From this one case learn all. If popery is dealt aright with in the present state of things, this whole protestant nation ought to be swept with the bosom of destruction—to be sunk in the depths of the sea, for it is just a den of thieves. He that hath ears to hear let him hear! Mark then, brethren, I beseech of you !—Again and again mark ! that the latitudinarian principle which now character ises the constitution—the national abandonment of God, is demoralising, and must demoralise the nation, and, therefore, destroy it. I believe that it is in our power to save it. We cannot, however, I find, come to this subject yet. For the present, then, I remain, my lord mayor and brethren, your humble servant in Christ, T. D. GREGG, A.M., Chaplain to the Corporation of Tailors. Vestry, Free Church, Swift's-alley, Dublin, Aug. 22,1839. WRECK OF THE ROYAL GEORGE. (From the Hampshire Telegraph.) We have already mentioned that the great cylinder, con taining about one ton of gunpowder, which was lowered down on the 23d inst., which did not explode when the action of the galvanic battery was applied to its priming, had become somehow entangled amongst the wreck, and could.not be extricated. The hawser which was attached to it being broken, and the downhaul rope having got foul of the ship's timbers, it was necessary to investigate matters by means of the helmet divers, and as these men could only work at slack water, a period which at slack water is extremely short, many successive days were employed in this difficult research. At length, on the morning of the 30th, the cylinder was got at, and a hook rope being attached to one of its rings, the mon strous charge was drawn to the surface, when the whole of the powder was found to be saturated with water. The cause of this accident has not yet been ascertained, nor can it be till the cylinder is completely dismantled and inspected by Colonel Pasley, whose official duties have called him away to Chatham ; and we shall, therefore, content ourselves at present with mentioning the fact. And here it may not be amiss to state what is the purpose of these operations. The Royal George was overset and went to the bottom on the 29th'of August, 1782, and she has been allowed to lie there during no less a period than 57 years—much to the disgrace, we'must say, of the engineering science of this country. The plan seems to be to blow the Royal George to pieces by means of a succession of great and small charges, and then raise the fragments by means of ropes attached to them by help of the diving bell. Many technical difficulties occur in this process, in placing and fixing the vessels properly, in sounding over the wreck, in warping and securing the light ers containing the charges, and finally in adjusting the boats and ladders by which the helmet-divers descend, or from which the diving-bell is lowered. In arranging and con ducting the details of these complicated manipulations Col. Pasley, we are glad to see, bas the advantage of Mr. Sadler's experience ; and we are sure that his abilities, his cheerful ness, and his habits of resource, cannot fail to prove of the greatest use. The engineering details, on the other hand, are under the immediate management of Captain Williams, of the Royal Engineers, and of Mr. Symonds, also of that corps, son of the Surveyor of the Navy. These officers, with a party of Sappers and Miners, live on board the Success, a frigate in ordinary, which, with no small consideration and foresight, had been moved out to Spithead, for the accommodation of - the various parties em ployed on this service. Boats, officers, and seamen are also furnished by her Majesty's ship Pique, Captain Boxer, to assist in the many laborious processes connected with these operations. On Thursday last, the 29th of August, being , the anniver sary on the day which " Brave Kempenfelt went down, With twice four hundred men:" Colonel Pasley made an effort not to let the old ship be any longer in peace, and on this occasion he succeeded so com pletely, that, if ever we had held the slightest doubt of his being able to accomplish the object in view, our apprehen sions on this score must have been removed. Five succes sive charges were sunk and exploded on the wreck, and, so far as can be ascertained, with the most destructive effect. — These charges. however, were comparatively small, the largest containing only 4801 b. of powder, the other two be ing of 451 b. each. They were all fired by means of Bick ford'i fusees, an ingenious device, by which a match is made to burn for two minutes under the water before the fire reaches the charge, which then explodes. The method of setting off these charges may interest our readers. A weight, say a pig of ballast, or, for economy, a heavy bag of sand or shingle, is lowered till it reaches the wreck, by means of a small slip rope, rove through an iron ring, both ends of the rope being kept on board the boat.— To one end of the rope the vessel containing the charge is then made fast, and the other being well manned, the match is lighted, the vessel plunged into the water, and the rope briskly hauled in, so that long before the fuse is burned out, the charge is close down to the ring, and the boat removed at a safe distance. The first, or largest explosion, on the 29th, produced a double shock, sufficient to shake one of the largest of the dock-yard lighters or lumps, from end to end, and to pro duce a sensation to those who were on board her, resem bling a smart shock of electricity or galvanism. The inter val between the schocks was very short, say the 10th of a se cond. The sound was sharper and louder than we had ex pected, of a quick, angry character. The effect on most per sons was remarkable, but not the same on all. Several la dies who ware present felt severely shaken in the back, many imagined they were thrown up an inch or two off the deck, and one person had a head-ache instantly after feeling the shock. The water over the explosions was not in the . smalles , degree affected, so far as could be observed, for four or five seconds, when a boiling motion became apparent, and an evident rise in the water over an area of 10 or 12 yards, ac companied by the most violent ebullition. Some go so far as to say the water rose four or five feet over the great explo sion ; we dare not say that it much exceeded a foot, or a foot and a half. Be this as it may, no smoke was seen, and at first only a prodigious evolution of air or gas, and a violent commotion on the water. In the course of a few seconds a cloud of mud, of a dark blue colour, rose to the surface, ac companied by a disagreeable smell, caused either by the in flamed gunpowder, or by the foetid mud collected over the wreck. Several large fish were killed by the first explosion, but none by any of the others ; at least none rose to the surface. What change Colonel Pasley may make in his operations when he comes to examine the unexploded cylinder, now recovered from the wreck, we cannot pretend even to guess. That he will not be baffled is all we are certain of. ANOTHER FRENCH OUTRAGE UPON BRITISH SUBJECTS AND PROPERTY. (From Me Shipping and Mercantile Gazette.) We received the annexed communication this day (Satur day) from our Berwick correspondent. We have had, lat terly, some complaints of the absence of all protection by a vessel of war for our fishermen on the northern coast of Eng land and of Scotland; but the outrage committed in this in stance is of so gross a nature that it is impossible to suppose that it will be overlooked by government. At home and abroad it seems to be taken for granted by the French that they can commit outrage upon British subjects and destroy British subjects with impunity. Abroad our merchants are injured in their trade or plundered, and our flag is outraged and insulted. At home, within our own harbours—on our own fishing ground—upon our own coast our fishermen are ruined by the havoc and plunder of their nets ; and'had they offered resistance to this daring aggression upon their pro perty, there can be no doubt but that the lives of several of them, from the superior size of the French boats and num ber of the men, would have fallen a sacrifice : " TO THE EDITOR OF THE SHIPPING AND MERCANTILE GAZETTE " Berwick Spittal, Aug. 29. " SlR,—There was great destruction committed last night by the French fishermen getting amongst our herring boats, and cutting and carrying away not fewer that 10 or 12 boats' nets. A fleet of nets costs upwards of 60 guineas, so that the poor fishermen whose nets are destroyed are ruined for the season. A French boat is about 40 tons, with from 14 to 16 men ; our boats, about 9 or 10 tons, with fo u r, or at most, five men. We have a government that will protect a fo reigner, but a native may go and beg. I hope you will ex pose this in a proper manner. There is no ship of war to af ford protection to our fishing, although government says there is one. If there be, she has not been in sight of this place for I think now five weeks. " YOUR CORRESPONDENT!' On Monday and Tuesday the following novel experiment of locomotive steam-power was tried on the Forth and Clyde Canal. Mr. John M`Neil, the civil engineer of the Clyde navigation, has had constructed on the banks of the canal a railway upon blocks, on which a locomotive engine has been put, which was used on the above-named days instead of horses, to draw the canal passage-boats, and succeeded in taking them the whole distance of the line at the rage of eight miles an hour. The company having ascertained the full success of the experiment, will construct a tramway along the canal bank, and will be able to take their passage boats in future at the rate of 18 miles an hour.—Stirling Journal. EXHIBITION OF ASSES IN AMERICA.-Of the Cattle show at Lexington (Kentucky) the fourth day was for the exhibi tion of jackasses of two years and one year, and for foals and jennies also; this sight was to me one of peculiar interest. Accustomed as we are in England to value a jackass at 20s. we look down upon them with contempt ; but here the case is reversed; you look at them with surprise and admiration. Several were shown standing 15 hands high, with head and ears in proportion. The breed has been obtained from the Maltese jackass, crossed by those of Spain and the South of Prance. Those imported seldom average more than fourteen hands high ; but the Kentuckians, by great' attention and care, have raised than up to fifteen hands high, and some times even to sixteen. But the price paid for these splendid animals—for such they really were—will prove how much they are in request. Warrior ' a jackass, of great celebrity, sold for 5,000 dollars, upwards of. £l,OOO sterling. Half of another jackass, Benjamin by name, was sold for 2,500 dol lars. At the show I asked a gentleman what he wanted for a beautiful ass, only one year old. He said that he could have 1,000 (X 250) for her, but that he had refused that sum. Fora two-year-old jack, shown during the exhibition, they asked 3,000 dollars, more than £6OO. I never felt ranch re spect for donkeys before ; but the fact is, that mule breeding is so lucrative, that there is no price which a very large don key will not commatid, THE TOURNAMENT AT EGLINTON CASTLE. (From the Morning Herald.) The attempt to revive at the present day the chivalrous pastime of " the tournament" has been derided by the cold " philosophy" of a money-getting, utilitarian age. Yet, let us ask, are the mass of the people happier because the " age of chivalry has past," and, hi what was once " merry Eng land," the sordid, heartless, sensual doctrines of utilita rianism have triumphed over sentiment, and nearly extin guished the fine impulses and generous instincts of man's na ture? Chivalry, divorced from the feudal system, of which it was the graceful accompaniment and softening influence, may be thought to be altogether out of place and out of season. What is there in our advanced state of civilisation, it may be asked, which can make it desirable to re-introduce its forms and usages—the inventions of ages comparatively illiterate ? We answer that, though the feudal system has vanished, the spirit that tempered its despotism—that mitigated its ferocity —that, in an age of comparative darkness, restrained the arm of savage violence and led power captive in the silken chains of woman's finest influence, may not be without an object to operate upon, and a field for the exercise of its no blest powers. If the feudal power was fierce and rude and lawless until chivalry came to subdue its passions beneath the yoke of an artificial refinement, is not the utilitarian age grovelling, mean, and sordid, and does it not require some counteract ing influence—some elevating and inspiring sentiment to re deem its character from the debasing bondage of that mate rial " philosophy" under which the manly virtues, and all those generous energies that exalt and adorn humanity, are fast perishing from the soil of England, where they once flourished in such vigorous luxuriance? Is not such a condition of society tending rapidly to realise the melancholy prediction of the poet Goldsmith, who, with the prophetic eye of genius, foresaw the national degeneracy which the utilitarian system, then only beginning to develope itself, would eventually produce : " A time may come when, stripped of all her charms, The land of scholars and the nurse of arms, Where noble stems transmit the patriot flame, Where kings have toiled and poets wrote, for fame, One sink of level avarice shall lie, And scholars, soldiers, kings, unhonoured die." Of all systems of tyranny a ploutocracy is the most cruel, selfish, and grinding. It is, therefore, that our utilitarian " philosophers" admire a money-government ; for they are cold-hearted and unfeeling sensualists, who trample the poor in the dust, and rail at the aristocracy of birth, because it is associated with generous, elevating, and heroic recollections. They despise, or affect to despise, the patriot-passion which makes a man prefer his own country, its interests, and its glory, to all others, because that passion, whatever it may be, is not a selfish one. To those who have no directing power but selfishness it costs no struggle of intellect to get rid of the generous attachment, or prejudice, or whatever it is, to one's country. Their cosmopolitism is but the absence of manly sympathy—but the negation of heart—just as latitu dinarianism in religion is not a triumph of charity, but a re sult of cold indifference. How can such persons understand the feeling of the bard, when, in the fervour of a patriot's enthusiasm, he exclaims,— " 0, Caledonia! stern and wild! Meet nurse for a poetic child ; Land of brown heath and shaggy wood, Land of the mountain and the flood-- Land of my sires—what mortal hand Shall e'er untie the filial band That binds me to thy rugged strand? Had that bard himself, the learned,• graceful, and im- passioned POET OF CHIVALRY lived to' see the tournament revived on the soil of his beloved Caledonia, how would he have welcomed with the fascinating strains of his magnificent genius the revival of the chivalrous splendours of the " olden time." Then, perhaps, another canto would have been added to the " Lay of the Last Minstrel." Even in the feebleness of old age such an event would " Have lighted up his faded eye With all a poet's extacy." To view the " tournament" merely in the light of a manly exercise and pastime, is it not one which deserves the en couragement of those who are admirers of recreations which strengthen, instead of enervating, the human frame, and teach, the noble combination of hardihood of spirit and gen tleness of character ? What can be more masculine, adroit, and graceful, than the action and riding of a well-accom plished knight in the enterprise and evolutions of the tourna ment ? As an exhibition of mere animal dexterity and prowess, it is a most interesting spectacle, but when there is added to 01 that the indispensable accompaniment of the pre siding charm of beauty, and the virtuous influence of woman, all civilised men must admit that the interest of the spectacle is greatly enhanced. Even the mighty genius of Milton did homage at the throne of the " Queen of Beauty," when he sang of the scenes— " Where ladies' eyes Rain'd influence, and judged the prize Of wit or arms, where all contend To win her smile whom all commend." Now what other masculine exercise is there which invi gorates the mind and frame of man, at which it is graceful and becoming in woman to preside ? Is it fox hunting in which a lady is occasionally seen, but never to advantage ? the poet of The Seasons," speaking of the British fair, says— " Far be the spirit of the chase from them— Uncomely courage—unbeseeming skill, Whereby they roughen to the sense, and all The winning softness of the sex is lost." Is it steeple and hurdle chases, these brutal and barbarous pastimes of mercenary and unmitigated cruelty to which that generous animal, the horse, is inhumanly sacrificed to the cupidity of betting speculatOrs ? Scarcely do we ever hear of one of those cruel and senseless exhibitions in which one or more horses have :not their backs or necks broken, and not unfrequently the inhuman riders. This is a pastime, if anything so savage can be called so, which deteriorates both horse and man,and surely if the revival of the exercises— the manly and graceful exercises of the tournament were to put it out of fashion among the young aristocracy of the country, who are followed in this vice by a crowd of vulgar imitators, it would confer a great benefit on society, or, at least, abate a most disgraceful nuisance. How different to behold " Young knights and squires—a gallant train — Practise their chargers on the plain By aid of leg—of hand and rein Each warlike feat to shew. To pass, to wheel—the croupe to gain, Mid high curvet, that not in vain The sword-sway might descend amain On foeman's casque below." All this is exercise which serves to develope all the strength and all the activity of the human frame. It was the recol lee tion of the personal prowess of the steel-clad knights of old, which caused the great Lord CHATHAM to make a some what disparaging comparison between " the silken barons of the present day and the iron barons of antiquity." Lord Eglinton has had the laudable ambition of endea vouring to remove that reproach from the young aristocracy of the present day. How different is the recreation which he, by a most bountiful expenditure of wealth, has endea voured to make fashionable from that which destroys the health and ruins the morals of its votaries at the gambling table. Better are the tented lists of Eglinton Castle than the gilded saloons of Crockford's. There the success of him upon whom fortune smiles is not followed by the anguish, destitution, and despair of the vanquished. There no sordid passions take possession of the heart and burden human na ture until it puts on the malignity of the demon. There the ancient patrimony of the infatuated devotee of this miserable vice is not flung away on the cast of a die or the turn of a spotted card. How many noble castles, beauteous parks and woods, and lawns, have been passed in this way, as if by the wand of the enchanter from the silly inheritor to some prac tised sharper, which in " the age of chivalry" had displayed, as Lord Eglinton's domains have lately done, the noble ar ray of that panoplied knighthood which was the " cheap de fence of nations," and all the circumstances of a splendid hospitality ! The scene of the tournament was graced by the fairest women of Scotland, and among them was the noble mother of the chivalrous host. It is not one of the least recommenda tions of such a scene that it cannot be considered complete without the presiding attractions of the fair sex. And, surely,, in all times and countries there has been no such incentive to deeds of high emprise and honourable estimation as the vir tuous influence of woman. The last gleams o! chivalry were shed upon a " maiden reign." The father of Elizabeth trod the " field of the cloth of gold," and that great princess spoke as with the lion-heart of real knighthood (if we can apply that word to woman) when she rode on her splendidly -caparisoned steed to Tilbury Fort, and in addressing her troops while the armada of Spain, then the greatest nation of the earth, threatened her kingdom with extinction, spoke of " the foul scorn that Spain and Parma should dare to invade her dominions." Oh ! if but a small portion of that great Queen's spirit animated the hearts of the little men who rule England at the pi - esent day, the flag of England would not have been so dishonoured as it has been by the barbarians of the north and our treacherous allies of the west. If the " age of chivalry" expired with a " maiden reign," the revival of one of its most manly and beautiful spectacles has been attempted, and we hope with success, in another " maiden reign." If ever a powerful enemy should again attempt our shores, would England be in a worse or btter position for trium phant resistance by having a nobility not lapped in enervat ing pleasures, and debased and enfeebled by luxurious indo lence, but trained in athletic and masculine exercises, enured to danger, and inspired with that high feeling of honour which caused chivalry to be of old " the nurse of manly sen timent and heroic enterprise." Another national advantage of the revival of such specta cles would be the inducing the nobility and gentry to think more of their own country than of foreign lands, and to spend more of their money at home than among foreigners, who, while they worship the contents of an English purse, hate the very naive of English. We are glad to observe the ardent, and, indeed, enthu siastic feelings which the noble and high;.minded conduct of Lord Eglintoun called forth from our northern fellow-sub jects. We were also glad to find, that in a spirit of nation ality which is greatly on the decline in England, they adopted their country's costume. It has been' said by some critics on the tournament that this was improper, because the tour nament was of Gothic not of Celtic origin. -This-is true, but when they also go on to say that the Celtic costume was never seen at tournaments, this is not true. Were there no joustings and tourneys in the reign of James IV. of Sccitland, who fell at Flodden-field? Did not the na- tional dress of the Celtic race then appear in the monarch's army, and at his court? But let us quote, as the best argu ment on this subject, the authority of the great minstrel of Scottish chivalry— " Next Marmion marked the Celtic race Of different language, form, and face— A various race of man. Just then the chiefs their tribes arrayed, And wild and garish semblance made ; The chequered trews and belted plaid, And various notes the war•pipes played To every varying clan. Wild through their red or sable hair Looked out their eyes with savage stare, On Marmion as he past ; Their legs above the knee were bare, Their frames were sinewy, short, and spare, And hardened to the blast. Of taller race the chiefs they own, Were by the eagle's plumage known." That was the time when the Scottish monarch indulged in, `• By day the tourney, and by night The merry dance-- " Here leave we the tournament and its hospitalities for the present, hoping that the golden sun which withheld its beams on the late occasion, may shine auspiciously on it at a future day.

Butter is coming to market most abundantly,—dealers are in consequence very shy in purchasing. We cannot quote Belfast higher than 925, and favourite southern brands 90s to 925. There is a little improvement in the demand for pickled Butter, honest marks worth 87s to 88s. Beef and Pork both held at high rates ; and it would appear that they are likely to be supported,—the former of prime quality is worth 112 s 6d to 115 s per tierce, and India, of the full weight, would command 126 s per tierce. Prime Mess Pork, consisting of the entire run of the pig, (bar the head and crubeens,) sell readily at 80s. Mess, (Bacon extracted) 75s to 77s per barrel. Bacon maintains its advanced position very firmly, 53s to 54s being the obtainable currency, for a fine article. The Barreled Provision market has latterly been much excited, in con sequence of the large quantity (35,000 casks) which the govern ment is likely to require during the approaching season. As, how ever, the " Meteor flag," has been on divers late occasions, insulted with impunity,—so conciliatory has been the disposition of " Ould Cupid" and comrogues,—we do not think there will be any im mediate hubbub, and would caution our friends consequently against anticipation of war prices. importo.

James Scott and Son.) The imports of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal from Ireland, Coast ways, and from Foreign ports since Tuesday last have been to a very small extent, and during the first part of the past week the weather, though still rather deficient of sunshine and summer heat, was pretty favourable for the progress of Harvest—very partially com menced around us; but on Thursday night we had a recurrence of very heavy rain, and since alternate heavy showers and sunshine, which, at this our very critical period—harvest but just commencing generally throughout this district, must be very injurious, tending to produce sprouting, smut, and mildew ; and nothing but the more favourable accounts of the progress of Harvest in the Southern counties, where they are three weeks more forward than with us, and the decline in prices in Mark-lane last week, could have pre vented an advance here, instead of the dulness we have experienced, and a further decline on Wheat (except for the finest quality) of 3d per 701bs, and is per sack and barrel on Flour ;—the scarcity of all other articles in the Corn trade has prevented any decline in their value ; and these remarks are applicable to all the markets of Lan cashire and Yorkshire of the past week. Reports of the general quality of new Wheat in Mark-lane are unfavourable, and some small parcels of new Oats and Barley from Ireland, arrived here, are of very middling quality, but certainly not sufficient to warrant any decided anticipation of the general result. The alterations in the duties on Grain from Foreign ports since Friday are an increase of is Gd per quarter on Oats, and is 6d per quarter decrease on Beans, and Rye is now at the lowest duty of is per quarter; on Wheat, contrary to the general expectation, it did not recede to 6s Bd, which it will probably do next Friday ; in the mean time Wheat in bond is offering as free less this duty—and some parcels of fine Dutch Oats have found sales in bond for export at 3s 5d to 3s 6d per 45 lb. The weather has continued very rainy all this day, and appears very unsettled, but further than enabling holders fully to recover the decline above noted on Wheat and Flour, it caused no great ex citement at this day's market ; the transactions were only to a very moderate extent, and we make no decided alteration in our prices current of last Tuesday. i AT, per 701bs s. d. s. d.
