IRELAND.

Delude, Ocr. 1.
• The Roscommon guardians have wisely determined •
not to follow the example of their brethren of Mayo
in repudiating this government debt. The following
note of the proceedings of the assembled guardians
of Roscommon on Monday last is given by a COres
apondent of the Ereniny Post:
I am just after returning from the meeting, held in the
Courth rase here, of deputations from the respective boards
of guardians in the county, le memorialise the Lords of the
Treasury for a postponement of the instalment which the
poor-low commissionere insist on being levied with the pre-
sent rate (or the relief of the pour. The chair was occu-
pied by Lord Lorton. Ilia Lordship made a few temperate
observations 0., the hardship of being obliged to pay the de-
mand made upon the country under its very embarrassed
circumstances, and then read a memorial for the adoption of
the meeting, to the effect referred to. I am sure, from
the very dispanionste wording and phraseology of the do-
cument, it cannot fail to mike a due impression on the
Lords of the Treasury. There was no hoity-toity threaten-
lag with respect to repudiation, or refusing to collect it;
the parliament imposed it, and there it is standing against
us, until probably the legislature will, in its wisdom and
generosity, wipe it off. It as sheer nonsense to oppose un-
gratefully a debt which has saved the lives of so many per-
sons, sod if administered and uistributed as the govern-
ment intended, many more would have been eared. There
were a fair number art the guardians present, among whom
was Lord Crofton, who was called to the second chair.
The agitation on the subject of repayment is still
carried on briskly in almost every part of the country.
A committee of the Waterford guardians,
_appointed
to report on the subject, have recommended that no
step should be at present taken in collecting a rate
for the repayment, but that the progress of the
movement now making by other boards should be
'watched, and the result awaited.

RAILWAYS.
THIS DAY.

Two o'CLocc

This is " ticket day" in the share market, and the
arrangements for the settling have been in full pro-
gress, but numerous fresh transactions for the
now account have also been entered into, and
the market has worn a decidedly buoyant
appearance, a disposition to anticipate higher prices
being very generally evinced. The rise to-day is most
marked in Great Westerns, Lancashire and York-
shires, North Westerns, South Westerns, North
British, South Easterns, and York and North Mid-
, anda, but the full advance of the day has in most
I instances not been quite maintained up to the present

-----
There is an increased disposition to operate in
French shares, which have further advanced. North-
erns are particularly buoyant, and have risen U. per
share.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.-YznEma.

1111.0IITANT Naw RVLE WM= DRIBTOIII TLDaa

An application was made to Lis Honour to enlarge**
doss under a debtor traders' summons, that an arrange-
meut might be effected.
His Honour having conferred with Mr. Winslow, the re.'
gistrar, said that during the vacation some of the commis•
donors had laid doers a rule which entirely met his view of
the cam, namely, that these applications, which were now
Arqueut, should be refused. The ground on which this
rule bad been laid down was that in granting them the
mud was permitting an opportunity fur a collusion, to
enable one particular creditor to gain a preference. The
summons was issued in order :that proeeeds"ga in bank-
ruptcy might be issued for the benefit of all the creditors,
and it could not be allowed to be a force to novel the
debtor to make terms. The defendant ultimately admitted
the debt, and which, in default of payment, will form an
act of bankruptcy.

COSTS.
In another case defendant admitted a portion of the
debt, and disputed the remainder, and an action had been
brought.
Mr. Turner (Sole and Turner) applied for costs as a mat-
ter of coarse, on which an argument arose.
Mr. Winslow, the registrar, s.tid it was not a matter of
OOUTsC.
Ilis Honour said that it ought not to be, but the costs
ought to abide the result of the cation, for the plaintiff was
seeking two remedies, ono by action and one by bankruptcy.
Thu application was refused.

SHIP ASHORE IN SWANSEA BAT—On Thursday
last, about midday, a large ship, of from 1,100 to 1,200 tons
tureen, which proved to be the American ship Thomas
Wright, of New York, bound from Havre to Cardiff, in
made for the Mumbles during the gale which then
prevailed in the Channel. She had dropped her anchors,
and been stationary for a short time, when her chain cables
gave way, and despite all the efforts of the captain and crew
she came ashore ins part of the bay nearly opposite Singleton.
Fort.nately it was one of the most favourable spots on which
a vessel could have taken the ground, and the Thomas
Wright sustained comparatively trifling damage. Consi-
derable fear, however, was at one time entertained for her
suety, from the uncertainty of the weather at this season of
the year. Several efforts were made, but unsuccessfully,
during the tides of Friday to get her off with the aid of steam
tugs and by throwing out her ballast. A deep trench or
Futter was dug around the spot is which she was embedded,
ant for a considerable distance to seaward, and at last, on
Saturday afternoon, after endeavours in which the parties
were ably aided by our harbour master (Captain Edwards)
and Mr. James 83itk, the ship was got off and brought la
adlety within the piers.—Ssocossea Herald.

CAI STOPPED IT • 111011R•TILUC.—Francis Morgan,
an athletic, determined looking fellow, was charged with
having stolen &boa from the parson of a lady named Fisher,
residing in Britannia-tarns, City-road, under the following

It wee deposed that the prosuutrix and a widow lady,
named Nash, alter spending the preceding evening at the
house of seminal friend over the water, got into a cab in
the Blacktriare-road, between 11 and 12 ecloek, to proceed
home to the residence of the former 1a47, which they had
slant arrived at, when, observing that the driver had tuned
down a wrong street, they lowered one of the windows and
apprised him of his error. The cabman accordingly
backed his horse, and was in be act of turning
again into the road, when the prisoner and two
other men suddenly presented themselves at the open window
of the vehicle, one of whom hastily took off his hat and
flung it inside, and the prisoner intently opened the door
and sprang in atter it. The prosecutriz, although greatly
alarmed, immediately raised the cry of " police," and en-
deavotersd to thrust out the intruder, who commenced
*tensile' with her, and making a match at her hoe,
dragged it from her neck, and was in the act of ntstatiag
with his booty when the end of it was seized by the other
lady, who held it last; and after another desperate but
abortive court to secure it, the prisoner relinquished hie
hold and endeavoured to effect his escape, but was intercepted
by a policeman, who was attracted to the spot by the cries
or toe ladies, and took him into custody.
In answer to the charge the prisoner neatly protested his
innocence, and said that both the witnesses were entirely
mistseen in thole identity, bat
Mr. Hamelin ordered the depoiition to be at once taken,
and the prisoner was fully committed for trial.

BELGIUM.

In consequence of the det• rmication of General
Brialmont, late minister of war, to oppose proposed
reductions in the war budget, the Belgian minis-
try resigned. It was supposed that this resignation
was given in merely for the purpose of getting the
General out of the cabinet. So it has turned out.
The King has, in an autograph letter, dated the 21st
instant, requested M. Itigser and his colleagues to
resume their offices, and the former to take ad interim
the portfolio of war.

INCREASE PAIIPIRDIN AND RIOTS AT EYE..

The workhouse otitis Hartbmere Union, which has for some
den been filled to overflowing with able-bodied paupers,
was, on Wednesdey last, the scene of an elarmlog riot. For
week or ten days lectors a large body of the out-door ap-
pliaants had been employed picking oakum, Sir John
Welsham having recommended that as • labour test, bat,
es the system proved totally inefficient for the proposed pur-
pose, the guardians resolved upon its abandonment, and an
Tuesday last they gave notice, to the men to that effect. On
the following day a largo body of men, armed with large
sticks, made their appearance at the gate and densaaded
admittance, end before the governor could get down to the
gate it wee broken in, the walls scaled, and the holies in the
poression of the mob, who et once began to demolish the
windows and commit other depredations. The principal
inhabitants went to the assistance of the authorities, and
son captured the ringleaders, seven of wham have been com-
mitted to Ipswich gaol for, various terms of imprisonment.
Another body of rioters assembled on Thursday, with the
apparent intention of • second attack ; but finding the autho-
rities well supported, peaceably di-pureed.—Bury Rai
DIABOLICAL Act.—On Friday night last a most
diabolical set was committed et Combs St. Nicholas, near
Chard, which, however, was fortunately unattended with
any fatal consequences. It appears that about 12 o'clock
on the night in question, some scoundrel contrived to throw
down the ber-eniseney of Gillud's Dragon lon in that
village, • canister of gunpowder, which, idamediatolY no
rushing the fin, imploded with a great noise. The locos of
the shock threw the servant girl who was the only person
then in the room, and et some distance from the fire) on the
floor, burnt a portion of her hair off her head, and scotched
her in several places, though not severely. lied the wretch
perpetrated the outrage a few minutes earlier, the conse-
quences would have been dreadful, as Mrs. Galant, the
landlady, had been sitting by the tire, with an infant in her
hp, end had only retired just as the anechiet was dote.—

There are dates from Lisbon to Jan. 13. On the
evening of that day the Peninsular and Brazil mail
steamer which left Southampton on the sth, had not
arrived in the Tagus. Her non-arrival was 'scribed
to a dense fog off the coast of Portugal. Violent de-
bates were expected to come off in the Cortes on the
Count de Tnomar's lease cf the royal domain of
Alfeite, and on the questions at inane between the
bank and the government. The bank shareholders
lirve resolved, by a large majority, to oppose the

WOOL. HURT ET.-THIS DAY.

The market fur English wool remains ,ern quiet, though
more inquiry has maniftsted its,lf for the article than tar
some time past. Prices are nominally the same, but rather
in favour of the buyer. For colonial and foreign
wool there is no change, business continuing Ivry quiet,
and prices steady. The importations fur sum(' time past
hare been upon an uniniportant scale, thaugh rather
lar
ger this week. several of the expects d cargoes from
itrati having come in, and the manufacturers appear to be

TURKEY.

The Austrian papers represent the insurrection
in Bosnia as acquiring new force. Fifteen thousand
insurgents had assembled at Jaicza, and a munlerous
fight with the Sultans troops had taken place in the
close neighbourhood of that town, in which the ad-
vantage seems to have remaintd on the side of the
rebels. Several hundred fell on both sides. The
whole neighbourhood of Baajaluka had taken arms.
Omer Pasha had not yet conic up with the insur-
gents.

COLONIAL.
NATAL.

A file of the Natal Fit; ....... dates to January
lith, has been received. Tlw outbreak of war at the
Cape colony was known at Natal on the 14th, and
great anxiety was felt as to the probable influence of
that event on the new settlement. The local autho-
rities has not issued any notice on the subject. Mr.
Shop:tone, it was stated, had issued orders to the
natives to he in readiness to accompany him—to the
number of 20,000—into the old colony. Many of
the servants at &Urban had left their places with a
view of joining the commando, and the projected
route laid down was through Faku's territory. The
natives appear to be willing for the work, and it was
expteted that a laxly of 20,000 strong, c • gin the
rear of the Kinks who were attacking the old settle-
ment, would be followed by desirable effects. The
weather had been propitious to the young crops,
whose value it was thought would be increased by
the war at the Cape. Gainnerce was progressing
favourably, the number of business firms having
doubled within a few months. In D'Urban, the
colonists were showing symptoms of social progress
by the establinioneot of a library and museum, and
also a commercial association. A. conveyance com-
pany has established an omnibus route between
Nat7td and la:rhan.

Mr. KER SEYMER inquired of the noble lord at the
head of the department of the Woods and Forests whether
any of the trees which disfigured and encumbered the Ex-

plications from the Commissioners of the Exhibition, wish-
ing to remove certain trees, and also from exhibitors, who
stated that their space was very much confined by these
trees. lir bad inquired into the matter, and find answered

WATERFORD AND KILKENNY. Yesterday, a
eccial meeting of this company was held at the London
Tavern, Bishopagate-street, fur the purpose of receiving
from the directors a statement of the terms upon which
the provisional contract for the completion of the line and
works had been let, and to confirm the same.—General
M'Lcorl, having taken the chair, said that the opinion of
counsel had been taken, which made it necessary for them
to have a meeting of this nature to confirm the contract.
—The soliciturread the various clauses of the contract, the
amount of which appeared to be 26,0001. in shares of 51.,

Chairman moved the confirmation of the contract.—Mr.
Bates seconded the motion, and said this contract gave en
improved aspect to their affairs, but it was contingent on the
discharge of their liabilities. The money from the loan
commissioners would also be dependent on the company
discharging all their liabilities. It was not to be expected
that capitalists or contractors would embark in • concern
to the cairn of 60,0001. or 70,0001. in preference shares,
except they knew that the liabilities of the company were
to be previously cleared off. These liabilities were to the
extent of 45,0001. It was hoped that the last issue of pre.
ference shares would hate enabled the directors to din.
charge this amount, but they had not been taken up to •
' sufficient extent for that purpose. The directors would,
therefore, ask the sanction of the proprietors to their making
a fresh arrangement with ether parties for taking these

HOSPITALITY IN THE ADEI.PHI.

The council of the Societe of Arts have di termined to
appropriate their rooms in .61in-street, Ath Iphi, to the hos-
pitable duties which the international character of thi•
Great Exhibition suggests. As a first step in that direction,
they have elected all the representatives of foreign coun-
tries at the Exhibition honorary members of their body, and
they have decided on the formation of reading and writing
rooms for the use of our visitors from abroad. They con-
sider that their offices will form a convenient and central
spot to which the letters of foreign exhibitors may be
directed, and they propene to hold weekly oonversaztones
at which many of our visitors will probably attend. As
the Exhibition* to a certain extent, the °Spring of the
