MUNICIPAL TYRANTS. It is admitted on all hands that, the local functionaries whom the municipal reform bill has satiated with power have every where abused that power for the most odious of purposes. They were not content with introducing political partizans into all' of fices of trust and pay, at a ruinous /expense to the public, but they have actually made war upon classes of men who in many respects were their friends and who, as tradesmen, are quite as respectable as the best alderman or councillor among them. We allude here more particularly to the disgraceful manner iu which the publicans of Liverpool were defamed in a report ou the state of crime, which emanated from certain blockheads of the Common Council. It was not only unsound in its reason ings, but false in its statements. The publicans, we under stand, are extremely indignant at the calumnies thus heaped upon them, and one of their order (Mr. Shaw, the Agricul tural Laureate) has given vent to his wrath in some well-writ ten but very severe lines, which are extensively circulated. We can only make room for the following stanzas:— For only look, November's growing near, And sixteen worthies they must part with then, When I shall move the sympathetic tear For men who'll never disgrace their seats again. IM praise in rhyme, I'll prose, paragraph, And gain immortal fame by writing epitaph. For I shall have to write the whole sixteen, When each good thing they've done I'll not forget; And steal from Pope a line to slip between, Which Johnson called " his epitaphs to let." And though it costs a lie to pl:asse, I must, Should that lie live when they are in the dust. • But what is that to me ?—I shall not hear it; If they ne'er earned the praise, the fault's not mine • And, should we meet at judgment, I'll not fear it, The only sin take to Isthe rhyme b Poets must prais e th e h an d s t h at do employ . them, And if I'm bound to p ra i se I must belie them. For they are radicals, and that's enough To d—n a man in any world or station • For when they talk of freedom's lantern-puff They boast of what's not formed in their creation. They'll rob the'poor man's welcome hour of leisure, And strip our tars of every earthly pleasure. POPERY ! AS IT WAS AND AS IT IS. We noticed in one of our recent numbers, the publication of a pamphlet, under the title of l• Popery ! as it was and as it is," for the purpose of r ec om m en di ng it t o th e a tt en ti on o f those who may wish to remove from the public mind an im pression, which has been industriously enforced, that the genius of popery is not what it was, and that the vices of that iniqui tous system have been renderpd less hideous and revolting by the spread of knowledge. We expected, as a matter of course, that one of our Liverpool contemporaries, the Journal, a paper supported by the papists, and therefore bound to support the infallibility of the Maynooth theologians and the morality of Peter Dens, would deny the truth of' the statements contained in the pamp hlet in question. Instead, however, of attempting to controvert any one of these facts, we find the writer in the Journal essaying the less difficult task of imputing merce nary motives to its editor. The priests who hover about the office of that paper, tacitly admit by the course they have taken, that, as far as it goes, the book presents a true piCture of Popery, as it was and as it is—a likeness too inveterate to be de nied or questioned. Popery has nothing to dread but the light of truth. If that light be honestly and fearlessly spread through the medium of the press, the downfall of popery is not more certain than that the darkness of night will be succeeded by the light of day. The little work which called forth these remarks, is, we understand, intended to be the precursor of others having the same object in view; we therefore call upon the real friends of civil and religions liberty to promote its circulation, as a means of opening the eyes of the world to the contaminations of a system, which to be hated needs but to be seen." Catho lics and protestants are alike interested in knowing the practi cal workings of a spiritual despotism. which, wherever it has prevailed, has proved itself to be the greatest curse that ever was inflicted upon the human race. The work is published by Arnold and by Perris, the Bookseller to the Liverpool Pro testant Association. THEATRE ROYAL. The more sombre plays of the " Hunchback" and the " Wife," which were respectively repeated during the race week, and which failed to draw anything like the average attendance at the theatre, have been succeeded by the representation of several pieces of a more attractive, but, perhaps, less solid character. The result has been that the house has been much better attend ed. In addition to Miss Ellen Tree, who is a host in herself, three of the members of Madame Vestris's company, namely— Mr. Keeley, Mr. F. Matthews, and Mr. Brougham, have favour ed us with some of their best acting in two or three popular comedies. On Monday evening, Sheridan's comedy of the " Rivals" was played, and was repeated on Wednesday, for the benefit of Mr. Keeley. The characters in the piece were exceedingty well cast. The parts of Sir Anthony Absolute and Mrs. Malaprop, the former by Mr. F. Matthews and the latter by Mrs. Clarke, were admirably sustained; but the best per sonation by far was Keeley's Bob Acres. He kept the house literally in a roar of laughter during the whole time he was upon the stage. What little Miss Ellen Tree had to do as Julia and Mr. Stuart as Faulkland was well done, and the whole went off evidently to the satisfaction of the audience. The afterpiece, the drama of " Nell Gwynne," was performed in a blundering and reckless manner ; a great portion of the time of one-half of the parties engaged in it being occupied in prompting the other half, who had either never been at the trouble to learn what they had to say before their appearance or had forgotten what they should have said when the proper time came. The house, however, very good-naturedly took the will for the deed and were pretty unsparing of their approbation. Miss Tree takes her benefit this evening, in the comedy of the " Provoked Husband," and two favourite afterpieces. It would be superfluous to multiply words to persuade the admirers of the drama that Miss Tree is a clever actress —that she is, in fact, almost without a rival in her profession, and is excelled by none in the parts which have been assigned to her for this evening'g performance, with which her engage ment terminates. It may therefore be expected that the public will once more mark their appreciation of this lady's abilities by a full attendance at the theatre this evening. MEETING OF THE COMMON COUNCIL.—On Tuesday a no tice was posted up on the outside of the Town-hall, signed by his worship the Mayor, calling a meeting of the members of the council, to be held on the following day, at eleven o'clock. No business, however, was transacted on that day in consequence of there not being a sufficient number of councillors present when the clock struck eleven. We understand the council will meet at the usual place at one o'clock on Monday. WHITEHALL, May 11.—The Lord Chancellor has appointed Henry Heathcote Statham, of Liverpool, in the county of Lan caster, Gent. to be a Master Extraordinary in the High Court of Chancery. The following gentlemen received their diplomas from the Royal College of Surgeons, London, on the 29th of April:— W. M. Cooke, Trinity-square, Loudon; W. P. Davy, Manilla; Henry T. Tetton, Liverpool; Theophilus Clarke, Brighton ; S. Lamb, Stourport ; J. Rowan, Belfast; James Coett, \Veiling ton ; J. Hutchinson, Newcastle-upon-Tyne; T. J. Finch, Greenwich; Edward G. Barr, Hull; John H. O'Neil, Hull.— London Medical Gazette. APALACHICOLA.—This port, situate in the Gulph of Mexico, is rising rapidly into notice; two years ago it was hardly known in Liverpool. However, from the Customhouse reports pub lished in the Apalachicola Gazette, March 17, we find that from October, 1835 to March 17, 1836, there were cleared from the port 14 ships, 6 barques, 27 brigs, 45 schooners, and 3 sloops, of which 3 ships and 3 b arques were f or Liverpool, and 1 ship for Havre. The ship Superior, of 600 tons burthen, had on board upwards of 2000 bags of cotton for Liverpool. Twelve steam boats and a number of barges found constant employment dur ing the season between this port and Columba, and the inter mediate towns. The receipts of cotton from 1835 to March, 1836, were 40,226 bags; and exports in the same period 24,500 bags. The stock on hand, including that on ship-board, was 15,726 bags. POSTOFFICE.—II is in contemplation to have two departures from London to Edinburgh daily —one in the morning, and the other in the evening. This arrangement, if carried into effect, cannot fail to be of incalculable advantage to the Scottish me tropolis, and also to all the intermediate cities and towns through which the mails will then pass.—Morning Paper.—[lf such a boon be granted to Edinburgh, Liverpool has an undoubted right to expect a similar favour. A mail leaving London at eleven or twelve o'clock in the morning, thus leaving two or three hours for answering the letters delivered a few minutes after nine, would be a great accommodation to the merchants brokers, and shipowners of this place.—E. L. S.] , INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.—The Chief Commissioner H. R. Reynolds, Esq., will hold Courts for the Relief of Insol' vent Debtors, at Lancaster, on Wednesday, July 20; at Preston - Friday, July 29; at Liverpool, Saturday, July 30; and a Chester, Wednesday, August 3. EXTENSIVE ROBBERY.—On Monday last, Margaret Burns, a servant, was brought before Mr. F. Haywood, at the Police office, charged with stealing two £lO notes, two £5 notes, and six sovereigns, the property of Mr. Fleetwood, of Wallasey. The prosecutor stated, that the prisoner entered his service on Easter Monday. On Sunday she suddenly left the house, and, in consequence of inform a ti on given him, he followed her to Liverpool, where he found her in a public-house in Fazakerley street. He sent for James Ainsworth, a constable, and saw the Prisoner searched. Two .£lO and two £5 notes, and 6 sovereigns were found upon her. Margaret Fleetwood, the wife of the prosecutor, deposed, that.on Saturday, about eleven o'clock in the day, she wrapped up.the money in question in paper, and then placed it in a nightcap in her bed-room cupboard. On Sunday she missed the key.from her' - potkef, and on breaking open the cupboard, discovered that the money had been stolen. Witness also missed a shawl from the parlour. James Ains worth produced the money and a shawl found upon the prisoner. He stated, that on her way to bride well she said she had put ber hand into the cupboard, and had taken the money. and that she had as much right to it as her mistress. He also produced the key of the cupboard, which had been found upon the prisoner. Mr. Haywood committed her for trial at the sessions. DISTRICT PROVIDENT SOCIETY: ANNUAL MEETING.—The annual meeting of the friends and supporters of this society was held in the large room at the Savings' Bank on Tuesday last, the Rev. Rector Campbell in the chair. The attendance was pretty numerous, and the interest excited in the meeting' by the observations of the various speakers was of a very gratifying nature. The report was read by Mr. R. L. Carr, one of the secretaries, from which it appeared that the income of the so ciety for the past year amounted to £1,076. 9s. 6(1., leaving a balance in the hands of the treasurer of £5OB. 18s. 2d. The amount of deposits last year was £13,215. Os. gd. ; the amount this year was £12.871. 4s. 51d. The amount of premium given last year was £483. 4s. id.; the amount this year was £394. 9s. 7d. The greatest number of depositors last year was 6,472; this year it was 5,803; the decrease being 669. 'The amount distributed in relief by the board was last year £473. 17s. 4d.; this year £394. 9s. 7a. The number of families relieved was last year 3,594; this . year 2,340. The report recommended that no relief should he given by the public to pers o n s go i ng a b ou t th e streets begging,who should be sent to the office of the society, where, if they were worthy objects, they would receive what was neces sary. The report concluded by expressing the regret which the committee felt, in common with the friends of all public chari ties, at the lamented death of the late treasurer, Richard Dob son, E„i. and with a warm tribute of eulogy on his benevolence and usefu'lness chairman, A number of resolutions were read over by the which were passed at a meetin,, ,, of ladies held on the 11th instant, with'"? then resolved themselves into a " visitors' society" Provident Soclevt view to obtain visitors for the Liverpool District for the present vec The presiding committee of the institution consists of the-fotre:r far as the appointments have been made, dent; Miss Marriottmg ladies :—M rs.

WEDNESDAY.—(Before WILLIAM EARLE, Jun., and EDWARD CROPPER, Esqrs., Magistrates.) • THE KING v. EDW. MURPHY. This was an information preferred .by the direction of the commissioners of his Majesty's customs under the act 3d and 4th William IV., c. 5.3, against the defendant, which charged him with being concerned in carrying and conveying on the 11th instant a large quantity, viz , 88lbs. weight of foreign leaf tobacco without payment of the duties of customs, for which he hart incurred a penalty of E Mr. H. Brooke, solicitor, attended on behalf of the customs, and called John era,,vfurd, who proved that he was a car driver in the employ of Mr. Simpson,.of Everton. On the 11th inst. he was on the stand near to St. George's Church. About nine o'clock in the evening a man came up and engaged him to go to Lancelot's-hey, and from thence to Copperas-hill. Witness accordingly drove off with him in the car, and on arriving at a marine store in Lancelot's-hey the man got out, and the de fendant and another man brought out a large package and put it into the car, and got into it themselves, and witness drove off towards. Bolton-street. On arriving near the Adelphi he beck oned to a police-officer, who immediately followed the car into Bolton -street, where witness stopped; the defendant and the other man got out of the car, and witness helped them to pull the package out, and the police-officer then came up and stop ped the defendant, but the other man made his escape. The police-officer got the defendant and the package into the car, and witness drove them off to Bridewell; the package contained tobacco. Joseph Pullein, police-officer, corroborated the latter part of Crawford's testimony, and also proved that he left the defendant and the tobacco in Bridewell. George Greaves, night-constable at Bridewell, proved that the defendant and the tobacco were left in his charge until Mr. Prichard, tide-surveyor, arrested the prisoner, and seized the to bacco on the same evening. Giles Prichard, tide-surveyor, proved that he arrested the defendant, and seized the tobacco on the 11th instant; the.to bacco weighed 881bs. The witnesses underwent a strict cross-examination by Mr. Crewe, who attended on behalf of the defendant, but their tes timony remained unshaken. The magistrates convicted the defendant in the penalty of £IK but he not being prepared to pay it, Mr. Brooke applied foe-a warrant of commitment, and he was accordingly commit ted to the House of Correction at Kirkdale. PUBLIC V. PRIVATE WATcHnierg.L—On Wednesday, at the Police Office, one of the regular nightly police whose beat is in Castle-street and the neighbourhood, charged a 'brother officer who is employed as a private watchman in the same neighbour hood with breaking the peace and assaulting him on the previous evening. It appeared that both of these guardians of the night had been atttempting to rival each other in proteCting, one of his majesty's subjects who had the misfortune to be drunk, and in doing so, angry words ensued, and ultimately blows; upon which, the public watchman called for assistance, and the unhappy private was conveyed to durance vile. The magistrate, after reprimanding the latter, and expressing his determination to protect the police in the discharge of their duty, discharged the prisoner. Boa BURL-A. prostitute named Smith was yesterday charged before the magistrates by the captain of a vessel, a Frenchman, now lying in the Prince's Dock, with picking . his pocket of six sovereigns and a pocket-book, which contained cheques and French Bills of Exchange to the value of upwards of £3OO ster ling.. From what the complainant said, it appeared that the prisoner had pursuaded him on Monday evening to accompany her to a house in Birchatl-alley, Hackin's-hey, and on the way there had robbed him of the sovereigns and the pocketbook mentioned. The book was found yesterday by a carter, near to the alley where the parties had been, and contained all the bills, &c. which the prosecutor had lost. The six sovereigns, however, were not fotind. The prisoner had nothing to say in her defence, and she was committed to take her trial at the en suing quarter sessions. STABBING.—A ferocious looking fellow named Jones was brought before the magistrates. yesterday, charged by the first and second mates of the New York packet-ship Virginian with stabbing and cutting them on the previous evening. It. ap peared that the prisoner was one of the regular hands employed on board the Virginian, which arrived at this port on Wednes day night from New York; and upon being requested by the first mate to do something in the vessel, be refused, and made use of some improper language. In return the mate ordered him to go below, which he would not do ; and, drawing a large knife from his person, ran towards the first mate with au inten tion to strike him, when the latter called the second mate to his assistance, and seized a handspike with which he struck the prisoner, who immediately stabbed him in the thigh, and cut the second mate across the face and the right hand. Inspector Charles Tyrrell was immediately sent for, and the prisoner was taken into custody. In his defence the prisoner said he was drunk, and therefore did not know what he was doing. The magistrates ordered him to be fined 40s. and costs, or, in de fault of payment be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for one month. THE GREAT SOLAR ECLIPSE. [This notice was unavoidably excluded from our last pub [cation.] TO TEE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL S'TJIND✓IRD. SIR,—As the eclipse of yesterday excited such general atten tion in this town, which solicitude was increased by the fineness of the day, I beg to state to you the following particulars, which occurred during the progress of the eclipse. Being provided with a good reflecting telescope and the Liverpool mean time to within three or four seconds at the farthest, 1 found that the beginning and ending of the eclipse happened as follows :—The first contact of the two limbs took place at IH. 344 m., and the separation at 4H. 13-151. The greatest darkness was about three o'clock, when the cold, arising from the diminution of the sun's rays, was very perceptibly felt. Venus was distinctly visible to the naked eye for above twenty minutes. The above observa tions were made 11 miles (of longitude) east from the Exchange. Yours, &c., T. B. Liverpool, May 16, 1836. We are indebted to another correspondent for the following communication on the same interesting subject : On Sunday we visited a friend in the country who has a good telescope, and had a most gratifying view of the eclipse. There was less darkness than we had expected, but the dull grey threatening aspect of the sky was extraordinary, and hut an exciting effect on our feelings. At two o'clock two thermometers were brought out from rooms in the house to the, terrace in front of it, one of which was placed in the sun, and the other in the shade, and we annex a note of our observations, at intervals of five minutes, which may interest some of our readers who were similarly employed. The coinci dence of the lowest point of the thermometer in the sun, at the minute of the greatest obscuration, 311.10 m., is very remarkable. About 2H. 50m., and for at least a quarter of an hour after wards, our friend, who is noted among his acquaintance for the perfection of his vision, saw Venus with the naked eye, which was more than we could do; but when he directed the telescope to it, - we saw it most distinctly. On Saturday an astronomer told us we should look for this planet about the meridian, at a considerable elevation, and there we foUnd it : we could not make out Jupiter. VARIATIONS OF THE THERMOMETER.

THE LATE ECLIPSE OF THE SUN—was observed in the pri vate observatory, at No. 9, Duke's-place, by two different ob servers, with powerful orchromatic telescopes (one of Dolland's, 48 inches focal distance) to end at 4 hours, 23 minutes, 18 se conds and 4-tenths of a second : Liverpool, mean time. Six teen spots were obesrved on the sun's disc, and the largest one was surrounded by a dim halo, the breadth of which nearly equalled the semi-diameter of the spot. The moon's edges plb.mly appeared slightly serrated, and at the instant of emer sion, a point (probably the summit of a lunar mountain) ap peared to linger nearly half a second on the sun's limb at the commencement of the eclipse. The barometer stood at 30 inches 85-hundredths, the attached thermometer 71 degrees, two thermometers in the open air at 68 degrees, at the end the barometer 30 inches 31-hundredths, attached thermometer 68 degrees, and th ose in th e o p e n a i r had fallen to 68j degrees. J. P. S. THE TEA TRADE. The last advices received in London from Canton contain the Following intelligence relative to the Tea Trade.— " The trade generally is in a depressed state, chiefly caused by the ignorance the sellers of British goods and buyers of tea are kept in with respect to the declared approaching change of duties on teas in Britain, and the amount of these duties on classes of teas, being not thereby a profit or a loss, but a hand some fortune on each ship's cargo. It is far from my wish to throw blame anywhere, but want of necessary decision is evident; and - it is a fault, 'and an important one, the extent of value of shipment being about £`3,000,0(X). " Silver is high, and the last arrivals not so bright and soft as at first. " There are here and on the close approach 35,00 tons of British shipping, which is more than last year, and as there are less than £12,000,000, of tea to go home, the consequences are evident. "The Chinese Hongs are getting more rotten. " Hon Qua has been in prison for several days, and the con test is whether he will declare himself liable for his Hong's debts or not. If the Hong goes on, it does so with the plain declaration of its senior, that nothing, except personal torture induced hitn to become liable for the Hong's debts ! Does such declaration strengthen or weaken the credit of the Hong? "Rice has fallen more rapidly than in my memory, yet though against the individual adventurers (chiefly owners of British ships) it is much in favour of the Chinese consumer of all goods. "Bills are plenty ; dollars scarce." Other letters mention that the supply of tea would be short, and that prices were expected to advance. AMERICAN PAPERS. ABOLITIONTSTS AND THEM PETITIONS.—After all the noise and all the agitation with which this country has been afflicted on the subject of the abolition memorials to congress, it appears that only twenty-seven thousand signatures have been obtained throughout the whole country to these nefarious engines of dis order and mischief, and somewhere about ten thousand of this number are females—to say nothing of the four or five thousand children whose names have been put on them for the purpose of counting. Ten or twelve thousand male fanatics of full age are nothing very formidable certainly -out of a dozen millions— especially when it is considered what a large proportiv of that number are sheer knaves, seeking nothing but notoriety, and three quarters of the remainder very weak but perhaps well meaning men, who really know nothing of the matter,. except what is drilled into them by such people as Tappan. ROBBERY OF THE MA IL.—The mail between Columbia and Charleston was robbed on the 15th 18th 21st and 24th ult. by means of a false key. The perpelrater of this offence has not as yet been discovered. Measures have been taken, which, it is hoped: will succeed i❑ bringing the felon to justice.--illobil e paper. BONFIRE OF CORPORATION 1311.I.S.—The Corporation of Washington has appointed a committee for the purpose of binn ing up the city due bills, and 43,979 dol. have already been burnt. The committee was left at our last advises going on courageously in the• discharge of its duties. An ordinance has been passed, prohibiting the finther issue of this description of " rag money," and ordering the plates to be broken. THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. THE LIBERAL CORPORATIONS. Some of the liberal corporations have made " lots of fun," as Mr. Mingle would say, in the Court of King's Bench, within these few days, at the same time _that they have shown how valid their claims are to the epithet. The press not being quite so complimentary to those worthies as they think they deserve, no less than 'three criminal infcirmations haire been applied for at -the-suits of persons who think nothing of vilifying and abusing all who are above them, but who, if a gentle laugh is raised anent their antic gambolings, think it fit and proper to put themselves under the protection of the law, ana to bring the law of libel—and that in the shape which liberals have de nounced, time out of mind, as the worst possible mode of ad ministering it—upon the poor wights who have incurred the dreadful weight of their anger. The first of these informations was moved for at the instance ofa person named Byron, (no relative to Lord Byron,) who is the present mayor of Scarborough. His worship did not con duct himself quite as he ought to have done to some veterans who went before him to obtain the certificate, necessary to en able them to receive their pensions. He was laughed at for his conduct by the editor of the Leeds Intelligeneer ;. and, in return, he instructed his counsel, learned in the law, to apply for a cri minal information. Mr. Justice Williams refused the rule, with some apt remarks upon the " thin skin" of the mayor, to whom " hats off, soldiers," will now be a bye-word as long as he lives. The next case was, the Corporation of Maidstone v.the Maid stone Journal. The radical body, having sold their mace,' furred gowns, &c., appeared before the judges at the assizes in a " stern simplicity" that might have vied with the republican plainness of the backwoodsmen of America. The cruel editor of the Journal was so wicked as to laugh at them; and they ap plied for a criminal information, alleging that he sought too lower the dignity of the corporate body. Lord Denman, justly thinking that this was impossible, refused the rule, observing, " Mr. Attorney-General, this matter is really contemptible and absurd on the face of it!" Tile next case was an application on behalf of two of the Russell-faggot whig magistrates for Dorchester for a criminal information against the editor of the Dorchester Chronicle, who had been guilty of stating, that, after promising one gentleman to vote for him as town-clerk, they voted for another. In this instance, too, Lord Denman refused the rule, Will any of these liberal worthies, at their next public orgies, drink " The liberty of the press—it is like the air we breathe, if we have it not we die" ?—Dorchester Chronicle. THE SCOTCH TEMPLES OF HYMEN. The marriage business is still brisk enough at Gretna Hall and Springfield; for there is this difference between the two places, that while the former is an inn, on the Annan and Car lisle road, kept by' Mr. Linton, the latter is a village on the banks of a stream called the Sark; which formed the ancient boundary between England and Scotland: Until Within the last dozen years or so, the whole trade centered in this village; and, as opposition existed even then, the selection of the mar riage shop at Springfield depended entirely upon what inn the parties drove from at Carlisle. Wherever the fee promised to be a good one, the post-boys and all about the inn went snacks with one or other of the rival welders; and hence respect for their own multures made them adhere doggedly to the same place or resort, even when the principals themselves said nay. But since Gretna Hall, from a gentleman's seat, was converted into an inn, the tide of fashion has rolled in a direction where the ceremony is just as well performed, and where the accom modations are considerably more to the liking of distingues bound on a marriage jaunt. And there is this additional ad vantage, that the spot is much nearer to the real Gretna Green, where the first performer took up the trade, and who, contrary to the generally received opinion, so far from having learnt the art of welding in the smithy, was originally a tobacco spinner.— Dumfries Courier. We extract the following additional particulars of the mar riage of Prince Celina and Miss Smith, from the Carlisle Pa triot :—A noble prince whose travels have made him conspicu ous, passed through Carlisle on Saturday morning last. Be tween six and seven, a travelling carriage with four smoking posters, whirled up to the door of the Bush Inn, and out stepped a gentleman incog. who acted the part of a servant. Thore was another gentleman plainly, hut handsomely attired,'in the car riage, with a pair of moustaches, and a lady, described to- us as fair in the extreme. The gentleman turns out to have been Prince Charles of Padua, the lady the fair and fortunate Miss Penelope Smith. The prince and his bride did not alight, and during their sojourn here they conversed in the French lan- - , guage. The carriage was of foreign build, and ropes were at tached underneath to support it should a spring give way. The motto on the panel was obliterated. They inquired how many stages it was to Gretna, and being informed only one, the horses were immediately ordered to, and off they galloped. They were bound in "the holy knot" by Mr. Linton, of Gretna Hall, and they passed through Carlisle again in the afternoon, for Penrith, where they remained all night. At Penrith their companion left them; he proceeded to Glasgow. While at Penrith they engaged a servant to accompany them to the metropolis, which they have reached before this. Prince Charles of Padua is brother to the King of Naples, and his name is associated with that of Miss Smith, by an elopement to Madrid, where he ,was understood to be married. It is reported that his royal brother protests against the marriage, and we have heard two reasons assigned, one is that the prince forfeits the law by not marrying into a royal family; the other that the king contemplates mar rying a sister or the mother of Miss Smith, and thinks the dou ble union would not tend to perpetuate harmony. Which ru mour is correct we know not, but it will be seen that Dr. Nichol declared the other day that no clergyman of the Church of Eng land could be compelled to marry them, and therefore they have taken the only alternative of despairing lovers, a trip to Gretna Green. The whole history of their adventures, (for from the first they have proved the truth of the adage, that the . course of true love never did run smooth,) would form an interesting ro mance, but as far as the dry details of their last journey goes, it is very likely to terminate in a court of law. CITY OF DUBLIN . STEAM COMPANY. The half-yearly meeting of this Company was held yesterday, on which occasion there wax a numerous and highly respectable attendance of the proprietary. The report was of a most satis ' factory nature, showing the steady and progressive increase in trade and intercourse between the interior of Ireland and' Liverpool through Dublin, and glancing at the great extension of goods and passengers, but the former especially, which must follow the rendering available, for the purposes of navigation, that splendid river, the Shannon, bringing the entire of that ex tensive district into connexion with Dublin and Liverpool. The report stated that 46,000 tons of heavy loading, with live stock, &c., had been conveyed on the canals and Shannon in the last twelve months, the tolls on which amounted to within a fraction of £12,000 to the Grand Canal Company. The Company's second bill, we are glad to learn, is making progress through the House of Commons, notwithstanding the opposition of the Scotch party, who are indefati g able in their exertions to throw it out. But it is gratifying to know, that if they even succeed, the directors hav e other arrangements in contemplation, by which the interests of this useful establish ment will be effectually protected, and its present favourable position maintained. In these contemplated measures we are informed the directors are acting under the advice of the Attorney-General in Ireland, who haX warmly supported the Company's bill in parliament. The Company are building six additional vessels with 250 horse power, and of 600 tons burden each.--llublin Evening Mail. [We are happy to find that the bill now before parliament on the part of the City of Dublin Steam Company is not likely to be further opposed, the provisions it contains being considered unobjectionable. We are glad of this understanding, as nothing could be more mischievous than the interposing any parliamentary obstacle to the employment of Irish capital or the development of Irish resources.—E.L.S.l MR. O'CONNELL'S RETURN FOR KILKENNY HIS ABANDONMENT OF DUBLIN FOR EVER. The farce of an election for a member to represent the sul phureous city of Kilkenny took place on Tuesday and Mr. O'Con nell was, as a matter of course, returned. Our contemporary the .Moderator has, in a brief way, so well and so graphically described the scene, that we should be content to 'transfer its article to our columns, with comment, were it not that we find in the Kilkenny Journal of Wednesday, and which reached us at a late period, an announcement calculated to fill the minds of own "Trades' Union" with dismay. Mr. Sullivan concluded his proposition of Mr. O'Connell, " in which he expressed his intention of never seeking the suf frages of any other constituency than that of Kilkenny as long as he remained in parliament." Praise and thanks be to you, John Beatty West, for not only having rid us for the present of this disgrace to the Metropolis of Ireland, but for having, by your courage and perseverance, driven him for ever from our hustings. What will the trades say to this ? (FROM THE KILKENNY MODERATOR ) On Tuesday, (yesterday,) the day appointed in the proclama tion to elect a fit and proper person to represent this city in parliament, the sheriffs, Thomas Bradley and Benjamin Bar ton, Esqrs., proceeded to the Court-house for that purpose. On. entering the court the scene that presented itself baffles descrip tion. It would really afford an admirable subject for the gra 'phic pencil of Hogarth. the side galleries being occupied by the ragged inhabitants of the suburbs, while the body of the court was partly filled by another rabble collected from the dirty lanes and alleys of the city, whose tout ensemble was, if possible, still more grotesque and - ferocious than their brother electors in the 'galleries. On the hustings beside the sheriffs were the late member and his brother, Mr. Michael Sullivan,, Couueltor James, John P. Ryan, Esq., and two or three of the respectable leaders of the mob, who evinced their joy for the return of the "man of the people" by occasional shouts. Immediately after the opening of the court, Mr. Daniel O'Connell was proposed by Mr. Sullivan as a fit and proper person to represent this city in Parliament, and the nomination was seconded by Mr. J. I'. Ryan. .No other candidate having presented himself, the business was despatched in the course of ten minutes. It would, indeed, appear that the " independents". of Kilkenny were ' really ashamed of the sorry figure they cut, and that they were consequently anxious to terminate the farcical proceedings of the day. • Before the signing of the writ had been completed, Mr. Talbot Glascock made his appearance, and expressed his regret at not having reached the court before the conclusion of the proceedings, as it was his intention to stand for the representation of the city on independent principles. (Cheers.) Ile did not admire the principle of monopoly, nor of potting the representation of counties or boroughs into the pocket of any individual. (Groans.) He hoped he would be heard, j as he only wished to give free expression to his opinions. Mr. Glascock, after frequent fruitless attempts to obtain a hear ing, concluded by thanking them for their patience and dignity, and expressed a hope that on some future occasion he would not be forgotten by the citizens of Kilkenny (laughter.) Im mediately on the return being signed by a certain number of the electors—some of whom could scarcely write their names— the sheriffs declared the court to be adjourned, and the mob re tired, cheering for O'Connell as they went out. We may h ere mention one fact as illustrative of the respectability of Mr. O'Connell's personal staff in Kilkenny. A publican from Irislitown being asked to affix his signature to the writ, after. casting his visual organs over the document and reading the. first six names attached to it, declared that he felt ashamed of signed it!!! We believe so truly contemptible a display never before took place at an election in any part of the empire. The whole scene presented one of those farcei which invariably eli cit the wit and drollery of an Irish rabble. It was an old' say ing during the existence of what was termed the borough-mon gering system, that the rooks of Old Gatton returned a member to parliament; but even disgraceful as was that nuisance, it is even still more so in these reforming times, when we behold the tag-rag and bob-tail of society, at the beck of a rapacious dema gogue, eject men of rank and station from the positron which they should naturally occupy, and return —aye, if desired— such men as M'Hale's "cow-boys' to represent constituencies in the Imperial Parliament. After the election, a chaise and four intended to convey the intelligence to Mr. O'Connell's re turn started from the Court-house, and travelled by express to Dublin; and we have been informed that this wits done by the express order of Lo-t 1 Duncannon and the government ! Eng land may truly rejoice in being placed beneath the feet of such a dictator as the descendant of the Kerry Smuggler —a man who boasts of being enabled to eject airy ministry from office who dare dispute his ruffian mandate." LA MARRIAGE PAR LETTRE DE CHANGE, In looking over some old papers, the following, apparently a translation from the French, was found. A Merchant, originally of Paris, established in one of the French islands of America, w as willing to share with a person of merit, and not knowing who was to his mind, he bethought himself of writing to a correspondent of probity whom he had at Paris. He knew but little of any other style than that which he had made use of in his business, and treating an affair of love with the same manner as his other business, after having charged his friend with a certain number of commissions, re serving this for the last, here he set down :—" Also, seeing that I have taken the resolution to be married, and that I cannot here find a match that suits me, you will not fail to send me also, by the first ship a young lady of quality, and such as fol lows : Portion I ask not, but of an honest family, of twenty or twenty-five years of age, of a middle size and well propor tioned, of agreeable I wks, mild temper, manners without re proach, healthy and of a pretty strong constitution to resist a change of climate, that there may not be occasion to seek for a second if the first should happen to fail (which may we prevent as much as in us lies) considering the distance and the risk of passage. Arriving here in good condition, as above, and bring ing back the present letter, endorsed on your part, or at least a copy of it, well and duly made authentic, so that there may neither be mistake nor surprise, I shall oblige myself and en gage to acquit myself of the said bills, in marrying fifty days after sight to the lady that shall be charged with it. By vir tue of which I have signed this present." The Parisian correspondent read and read again this article, which classed, in some sort, the woman amongst the number of bales which he was to send, and after having admired the pru dent exactness of the American, and the laconic style in the account of the qualities which he required, he thought to serve him according to his taste ; and, after many addresses, he thought he had found the affair of his friend in a young person of good family, without riches, of a mild temper, of a polished and cultivated understanding, well made, and tolerable beauti ful; she was twenty-five years of age, and seemed of good com plexion. He made the proposal with which he was charged, and the lady, who only subsisted by the means of an old peevish aunt, and by whom she had suffered much, accepted of it. -They were loading then at Rochelle, a ship f or the i s l au ds. Th e l a dy set out with the goods, and embarked, being fitted out and fur . nished especially . . with a copy of the letter from the American, made authentic in due form, and endorsed by the hand of the correspondent. Without prejudice of the invoice of goods which he sent, the last article was •in these terms: "Also, a young lady of twenty-five years, of quality, fi,,,,eure, and condi tion, specified i n th e bill rece i ve d, as appears loy these attesta tions and certificates, which she carries with her." With these writings, which were a precaution which .they thought-ought to be taken to a man so exact as the future spouse, there was also a register of her birth, a certificate - of good•beha viour signed by the curate, an attestation of the neighbours, who by an exprsss act bore testimony for th 6 young lady that, dur ing the three years which she lived with an aunt, who was infirm and of an insupportable temper, she never gave her the least cause of discontent; also the goodness of her constitution was certified by the result of a consultation, signed by four physi c clans of the faculty. Before the departure of the young lady, the Parisian correspondent sent by way of Spain several letters of advice to his friend, by which he informed him that he had sent him by such a ship a lady of the age, character, and con dition, Sic. ; in a word, such a one as he required to make his wife. The letters of advice, the goods, and the young lady arrived safe, and our American, who found her at the first of the landing, was charmed to see so fine a person. She, hear ing him named, said to him—" I have, sir, a bill of exchange on you. You know people do not carry much money in a voyage such as I have just made. Will you discharge it ?" At the same tune she presented to him the correspondent's letter, on the back of which was, that the person presented to him was the spouse whom he demanded. "Ah ! miss," said the American to her, " I never suffered a bill of exchange to be protested in my life; I swear to you I shall not begin with this. I am the most happy of men if you are willing that I should discharge it." " I es, sir," said she, " I willingly consent to it, since it is for this only reason that I have made the voyage; and 1 find myself much more in the inclination, as it is from people of probity whom you perfectlyknow, who have informed me of nothing which does' not inspire me with the greatest esteem for you." This interview was some days after followed by the marriage, which was magnificent. The new married couple have been happy in their union, made by the bill of ex change, it being the most happy which they have had for a long time in their island. At the levee held at St. James's Palace on Wednesday, the 11th instant, the Rev. John Downall, M A., was presented to the King, and kissed hands on his appointment as Domestic Chaplain to the Right Hon. the Earl of Burlington. WORKIAoF !THE NEW POOR LAW.—The work-house at Horsham, beiii* the one for the reception of the able-bodied paupers of the whole union, comprising ten parishes, still con tinues unoccupied, and the governor and matron are placed upon board wages ! —Brighton Guardian. THE LATE WILLIAM COBBETT.—The Gazette of Friday last contained a notice that William Cobbett, one of the sons of the late member for Oldham is about to take the benefit of the In solvent Debtors act. Mr. Cobbett is described as an author, farmer, printer, and publisher. THE LATE MR. MOTHERWELL.—It g.ives us much pleasure to be able to state, that the Duke of Buccleuch, with cha racteristic benovolence, has transmitted a handsome sum to the executors of our lamented friend, in aid of his family; and that several gentlemen in Manchester, admirers of the poet and the man, have contributed £l5O to the same excellent purpose. Glasgow Herald. A hoax was practised on the London Missionary Society, which, but for an accidental circumstance, might have placed the meeting on Thursday last in an awkward predicament. Two letters were forwarded to Mr. Alers Hankey, the banker, and formerly the treasur er t o th e soc i ety, t h e one containing a draft for £lOO, purporting to be from Daniel O'Connell, in token of his liberal feelings, as a Roman Catholic, towards the dissenters; and the other, a draft for £5O, for the purpose, also purporting to come from Mr. Thos. Duncombe, member for. Fins bury. These letters wer e no t o p ene d until after the meeting, otherwise the donations might have been announced with those which are usually made at the anniversary of the London So ciety. On presenting the drafts at the bankers to whom they were addressed the, hoax was discovered. ESTATES IN MEXICO.—In times gone by it would have ap peared strange that in England a market should be found for property so far removed; but the superabundance of capital, and the impossibility of employing it safely, and to gain a mo derate return in England, has enlisted the attention of the mo nied world to invest lately to a large extent in Virginia. The same feeling necessarily exists to extend it to Mexico; 500,000 acres of land have changed hands very lately through the in strumentality of Mr. George Robins, and he has now a most encouraging investment for those of moderate means, (vide his announcement to-night,) where, in " the Kingdom of Mexico," now surnamed the " Land of Promise," in the very heart of the gold and silver mines, and land as rich as in Derbyshire for the purposes of agricultural pursuits, he has HALF A miLLiox OF ACRES to sell in lots, and the price expected not more than three or fo'ir shillings per acre for the fee simple. There are consi derable towns, navigable rivers, and railways passing through the whole of this fruitful territory, and in a climate as free and pure as in Italy. Farmers and mechanics of limited means will do well to be early in the field, remembering there are no taxes nor outgoings of any description to interrupt or paralyse their industry.—Erening paper. SIGNS OF THE TIAIES.—The minister of Wroxhall church, Warwickshire, being overtaken by a violent storm of rain, while walking not far from that place on the morning of Sunday week, sought refuge in a cottage by the road side. "Allow me to take shelter a little while," said the rev. gent. "No sir I cannot allow you," replied the inmate, a middle-aged female. Thinking that the refusal proceeded from an unwillingness to admit a stranger, he said, " I am the minister of Wroxhall, allow me to come in until the rain abates ;" upon which she re joined, "yes sir, I know you are, but I am not a Protestant"— and - immediately . shut the door in hig face. She is a Roman catholic, and it is in this neighbourhood, at least not far from hence, that the papists boast of having lately made numerous converts.—What next ?—Northampton Herald. THE CHURCH.—Considering the great outcry that has been raised against what was erroneously called the vast revenues, and the numerous sinecures and pluralities of our established church, it is astonishing that the important report of the com missioners appointed to inquire respecting the revenues of the church has scarcely been noticed since it has been laid upon the table of the House of Commons, but the fact is, that the re port has so completely negatived the exaggerated assertions previously made, that we are not surprised that those who were the most loud in their declamation, should now remain silent. We are, however, glad to find, from an advertisement in our first page, that the whole of the valuable matter contained in the report, has been condensed and published in a convenient form, and as a book of reference cannot but prove highly useful, not only to the clergy, but to all _persons desirous of being in formed upon a subject so much affecting the interest and wel fare of society at large. Pooa LAWS.—The first meeting . of the guardians of the Wir ral union (which comprises fifty-six townships in the hundred of Wirral) was,held, on Tuesdiy, at Birkenhead, on which oc casion were present Digby Neave, Esq., assistant poor law com missioner, Sir Thomas M. S. Stanley, Bart., the Rev. Archdea con Clarke, Rev. M. Fielden, Rev. J. Mainwaring, R 6. J. King, Richard Congreve, Hayes Lyon, George Robin, George King, T. H. Bartley, Croxton Johnson, 'Wm. Ravencroft, and William Jackson, Esqrs., with several other highly respectable gentlemen of the hundred. Sir Thomas M. S. Stanley was elected chairman, and Richard Congreye . , Esq., and the Rev. Mosley-Fielden, vice-chairmen, and Mallaby, Esq., Clerk to the guardians. This is the first step towards carrying into execution the modern provisions for the management of the poor. THE RECENT SEPARATION IN HIGH LIFE.—The injured husband having possessed himself of certain equivocal letters and documents, together with the evidence of his servants, has determined upon seeking legal satisfaction. The writ, it is said, was served upon the noble Intriguant on Monday last, the damages being laid at £30,000. A gallant colonel, a friend of the lady, was sent on a mission to secure her papers, but failed in preserving some most important letter s; among ot h ers, f rom the then Prince Leopold and Lord Muigrave, which must be made public on the trial. The plaintiff has retained Sir Wil ham Follett and Serjeant Wilde; and the noble defendant is at present acting under the advice of Dr. Lushington. The affair has been submitted to the noble brother of the plaintiff, who has consulted Lord Wynford and an illustrious duke upon the course he ought to pursue. All hopes, therefore, of any amicable arrangement, are we should suppose quite out of the question. We have said enough to show that we know a great deal more, but to make the extent of our information public would be at the present time premature.—Age. A PRETTY .INCIDENT.—A young lady, who resides in the country, has her chamber in the third story of a lofty house, at no great distance from an extensive wood or park. The windows are furnished with Venetian shutters, leaving a space of about six inches between them and the glass sashes. Early in the last winter the lady observed that a beautiful flying squirrel had sought this refuge from the season, and snugly located himself there. She gave the little creature a kind and hospitable welcome, feeding him plentifully with choice nuts and other dainties, and leaving him at liberty to go to his wood and return at his pleasure, which he did daily. After a short time he brought a companion to share the comfort and luxury of his habitation, and they went on increasing their number till the colony amounted to nine or ten more, who were furnished by,their kind hostess with boxes for their shelter, and soft wool for their bedding, which they arranged to their taste, and used without fear, making occasional visits to the park for variety and exercise. The showed no reluctance nor distrust when the window was raised for the curiosity of visitors, or to give them their food, and they seemed as conscious of safety as they were of the comfort and luxury of their living. What sort of intel ligence existed between these little animals and their friends in the woods, that they could communicate to them the good quarters they had discovered, and induce them to follow to this RI Dorado? The first adventurer, who may be called the Co lumbus of the se ttl eme nt, most have been able to inform his followers of the warm home and delicate fare prepared for them, and perhaps he allured them by describing the gay and gentle spirit, and captivating charms of the fair patroness.—National Gazette.

MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS (IRELAND) BILL The Marquis of LANSDOWNE asked Lord Lyndhurst, as that noble lord had the best title of property in the measure, whether it was his intention to go on with the Municipal Corporations (Ireland) Bill through its future stages. Lord LYNDHURST replied—if the noble Marquis meant to recom mit the bill he should then move certain amendments. The house having gone into committee and agreed to the report, the Marquis of LANSDOWNE stated that he should move the third reading of the bill with the view of letting the House of Commons see the alterations which had been made in it. Some other bills were forwarded a stage.—Adjourned. HOUSE OF CONIMONS.—MONDAY. Mr. ROBERT DILLON BRowNE took his seat for the county of Mayo DUBLIN ELECTION. Mr. M. MAXWELL (the Chairman) appeared at the bar with the re port of the Dublin Election Committee, which he read. It stated that the committee had duly considered the petition of Messrs. King and others, and had agreed to the following report : " That Daniel O'Connell, Esq., is not duly elected a Citizen to serve in this present Parliament for the city of Dublin. " That Edward Southwell Ruthven, Esq., was not duly elected a Citizen to serve in this present Parliament for the city of Dublin. " That George Alexander Hamilton, Esq., is duly elected, and ought to have been returned a Citizen to serve in this present Parliament for the said city of Dublin. " That John Beatty West, Esq., is duly elected, and ought to have been returned, Sze. " That the petition of Robert King, John Mallet, and others, does not appear to the Committee to be frivolous or vexatious. " That the opposition to the said petition does not appear to the said Committee to be frivolous or vexatious. " That these resolutions be forthwith reported to the House." The hon. member said that the committee had also agreed to the following resolutions : The SI 7 BAKER, interrupting the reading of the resolutions, desired the hon. member to bring up the report. The clerk at the table then read the resolutions; they were as follow :- 1. " That the committee feel it to be their duty specially to report to the house that eight persons —namely, Matthew M4tdden, George Osborne, Patrick Funicane, Oliver Richards, John Forsyth, Charles Dempsey. James Baldwin, and Andrew Hutchinson, were struck off the poll as having subsequently received money; but the committee is unanimously of opinion that there is no evidence that Messre. West and Hamilton, for whom they voted, were either directly or indirectly implicated in such corrupt practices. 2. " The committee further consider it their duty to make known to the house that they have found a very general irregularity to pre vail in the assessment and collection ot municipal taxes in Dublin, and that from the absence of all public notice of their imposition, the uncertainty attending their collection, and the liability to payment attaching in many instances to various occupiers of the same premises, the exercise of the franchise is frequently subject to impediments and difficulties which the committee cannot believe were contemplated by the legislature." Th. , clerk of the Crown-office then appeared at the table, and amended the return by erasing the names of Messrs. O'Connell and Ruthven, and substituting those of G. A. Hamilton, Esq. and G. B, West, Esq. as members for the city of Dublin. RAILWAYS.

Mr. HARDY would not oppose the motion, but took that opportunity of denying the accusations brought against him, namely, that he had been guilty of bribery at Pontefract at the election of 1826--" that charge was calumnious, false and unfounded." He lost his election because he was at that time an advocate for Catholic emancipation. Lord JOHN Russiim, and the CHANCELLOR of the Excmieusit op posed the motion on the ground that the commission could not effect all the objects contemplated by it; they were, however, ready to en tertain any practicable proposition to ascertain facts and afford re medies. The chief novelty in the long debate on this question, which was conducted with no small degree of personal asperity, was the speech of Mr. John Gully. That hon. member, however, said but little—it was in effect that he had heard Mr. O'Connell charge Mr. Hardy with bribery ; that the charge had not been inquired into ; and that one of his constituents had written to him on the subject. Mr. Hardy re plied by requesting that the letter might be produced, which Mr. Gully promised to do on the following day. The motion of Mr. Wallace was lost on a division, 52 voting for and 123 against it. Lord MORPETI called the attention of the house to the Lords Amendments in the Constabulary Bill for Ireland. While this motion was under discussion, Lord COLE moved that the house be counted. This was done, and 40 members not being present the house adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—WEDNESDAY.
