DUBLIN, WIDNUSDAY Eves's°.
The following paragraph appears in the Adcocate.
Rumours of a similar tendency, or at least indicating
a change of views and policy in Rome with respect
to the Queen's Colleges have been afloat for the
last few days ; and although theS• have not
come in any instance from a direct source
of authority upon which perfect reliance could be
placed, it would appear that there is at least acme
good foundation for them. I fear, however, that the
friend. of the Queen's Colleges have been over san-
guine in estimating whatever news from Rome may
have been received. The Advocate, which is likely
to bo well-informed on the subject, says:

- -
We have learned, on the most unquestionable authority,
that the Bev. Dr. O'Toole, Viee-President of Queen's Col-
lige, Galway, is about immediately to proceed to Rome, for
the purpose of prosecuting, in person, as appal before the
College of the Prummuods. It is confidently expected that
the decrees of dm St nod of 'f harks, as far as they relate to
the Queen's Colleges, will be reviewed and modified.

Iris estimated that the liabilities of the Messrs.
Foxall and Co., West India merchants, are about
80,000/. The flank of Ireland is said to be a heavy
sufferer by the unexpected failure of this house.
The new reform measures are, on the whole,
rather well received in Ireland. As far as English
interest. are involved, opinion on the subject heir is
of little consequence; but, as affecting Ireland, it
seems to be admitted that there is a fair and prudent
amount of conersaion.

A subscription in aid of tho fund for the survivor,
of the Amason catastrophe has been opened in
Dublin, and a sum of about 301 already been col-
lected.

By an arrangement just entered into by the Lon-
don and Nurth Western, the Chester and Holyhead,
and the other companies, parties to the booking-
through system between England and Ireland via
llolThcad, the return tickets of Irish members of
parliament to and from London are, during the era-
sion of parliament, made available for one month
after date of issue, instead of the usual period of
fifteen days.
The wife of a respectable grocer, in Strabane,
mistaking arsenic for soda, in one of the show
drawers, a few days ago, mixed it in some bread; in
'consequence of eating which her husband and her
mother died, and the remainder of the family sus-
tained severe illness.

PORTSMOUTH, FEB. 11. —The Simoom, iron screw
seesm transport, husbeen commissioned at this port to-day
by Captain John Kingcorne (1108).—The Agnes, merchant
brig, Foe muter, sided Iron the Motherbank yesterday
aPernoon fur Trinid.ut, and in beating down the Solent
water she gut on shore last night off Cowes. A messenger
being despatched to this port fur assistance, and aoplieation
being made by Lloyd's agents here to the Commander-in-
Chief, Admiral Sir Thomas Briny, he ordered the
Sprightly, steam rowel, Master Commander George Allen,
to proceed to Cowes for that purpose. The Sprightly
accordingly sailed at 1 o'clock this morning, and misted in
getting out a large portion, 100 tons, of the Agnes'. cargo;
but then she could not be got of the bank on which she
bad taken ground. The Sprightly returned into harbour
at noun to-day, but Admiral Briggs again sent her out to
the disabled brig. She went oat at 12.90 to remove more
of the cargo of the Agnes, and to taw her off. The Argue
steam-sloop is ordered (coin this port to Plymouth, to be an
advanced steamer there. The Blenheim, 68, screw guard-
ship, Captain Henderson, hai changed her colours to-
day from red to blue, being placed under the
orders of the Commander-in.chiet By a letter
received to-day irons Plymouth, we are informed
that the Hydra, steam sloop, Commander Belgrave,
which sailed from this port on Saturday night fur the
Cape of Good Hope, having Major-General Cathcart, the
new governor of the Cape, on board, had put is there in a
very disabled state, having encountered very boisterous
weather on Saturday night and Sunday. The gale was
exeeediagly heavy; and although the Hydra heaved it
well, she has a bug lint of defects to make good in cones-
queue.

The further hearing of this cue was resumed this morn-
ing by the defendant's examination being continued.
fhe action, as we hays already elided, was brought by a
widow lady to recover compens.ition in damages for the de-
f, Omit having lent a sum of 3.301, which she had placed
in his hands for investment, to Sir Gregory Lewin, that
gentleman being its iusolvent eircuinstasers at the time
when he borrowed the money. Under thin eirennutances
the plrintilf contended that the defendant had not exer-
cised due can in investing her money, by moos of which
she had lust it.

the defendant in his examinations, swore dist he had
every reawm to believe that Sir Oregory Lewin was a sub
stamina man at the time of the loan, and that the securities
which he had given him when ho burrowed the WAY.,
were valid securities.

The clerk of Sir armory Lewin, who was now dead,
proved that in 1842 his professional receipt& amounted
to 1,9001. end some odd pounds.
Mr. Sergeant Shaw having replied,
The Lord Chict Dania summed up, and left it to the
jury to ray whether, under all the cin.mtnstances of the ease,
they believed the defendant had or had not exercised a
proper rare and caution in investing the matey of the
plaintiff ?
The jury then retired to consider their verdict, and, after
a short absence, returned into mart with a verdict for the
plaintiff Damages &WI., and interest 1041. Bk.
