IRELAND.

DUBLIN, Ocr. 23.
The commissioners for inquiring into the condition
and other particulars relating to endowed schools in
Ireland held their first public court in Dublin yes-
terday. The commissioners are the Marquis of Kil-
dare (chairman); the Rev. Dr. Graves, T.C.D.; Dr.
Andrew., Q.C.; Mr. H. 0. Hughes, Q.C. ; and Mr
A. J. Stevens. The only endowed school in the
Dublin district against which any complaint has
been forwarded to the commissioners is the Borough
School of Swords; and owing to the indisposition of
Mr. Hughes, Q.C., one of the commissioners, who
wished to be present on the occasion, the inquiry was
postponed to Thursday next.
Respecting_ the late attempt at usamination in
Cavan, the. Mail of last night says:—" The unfortu-
nate lady, Min Hinds, eull lives' but is io a most
premises condition. She has the command of her
mind end her senses—she can speak, and hear, and
see. To hops for recovery, however, with the mur-
dereeskallst in her brain, is, we fear, not warranted
by sesdisal soignee."

lowered roe of their boats, into which four of them got
armed with knives and handspikes, sad a regular chase

the ellessiss of Marino, the residence of T. G.

when they saw him draw near the shore, one or two of them
beeped out of the boat and waded through the water, in
hopes of catchieg hint before he could land. Re tended

hollowed by the sailors, who, having also got en shore,
penned him through the demesne with loud oaths and

tained admittance, and all the imitates beteg out, with the
enseption of a daughter sot Mr. French's, and a few female

MR. WOODIN'S POLYGRAPHIC ENTERTAIN
LENT.

Last night, which was the anniversary of his first
appeases* before the public three yews ego, Mr. Woodin
gave his popular satertakosent, "The Olio of Whims and
Oddities," to a crowded and highly gratified ',Aiken. Ties
mitertsiameat itself is exceedingly well known to the public,
sad we bare aotbiog to add, in the way of description or
eulogy, to what we have already mid respecting it. It is
only simerary to say that he introduced into it hist night
for the ant time, an attempt at a burlesque imitation of
Mdlle. Rachel, which, though much applauded, was really
the least successful part of the performance. Mr. Moodie
came forward in costume, and recited, with exaggerated de-
clamation, a dozen lines of the famous tirade of Camilk,

only showed that the groat tregedies is not to be imitated,
either seriously or la jest. The hest thing that con be said
of t►is exhibitioe is, that it was very brief, sot vosapying
above a couple of minutes.
