BALLINASLOE FAIR.

Belli-1;1o, faraday Evening, The o'rlock.
The numerous herds of cattle which had occupied doting
the last day or two most of the town parks, were dtiven Into
the fair-green at an earlyy hour this morning. Business com-
menced with tined brfaknees for high clessei heifers and
sternal terra beetle bad been driven out of the rrcen before
eight o'clock. For this description of stock sellers believed
that the price bad edvanced It. per head over the rates of
Matt year, but second and third-class heifers end builteke were
rather easier. The opinions expressed respecting the tone of
the fair were, h.esever, rather conflicting, several of the old
buyer contending that there was no advance what-
ever. There can be no doubt, however, that the
increase in prices which I have already mentioned is correct.
The business of the fair is now almost concluded. and the
leading buyers are fast leering the town. Sellers are for the
most part well satisfied, and, indeed, the producing fanners
of Connaught never obtained each large sums for their stock.
Cattle ere sold now at rates beyong their real value, and the
certainty is that a reaction must eet in, nor is it likely that
such long prices will be obtained at the next fair. The
borer fair of yeeterday is gurrally regarded se having been
• very good one, snd many ea es were made even after I had
forwarded my despatch. There wen a very large attendance
of the light-fingered gentry at the fair, and POMO of them
were rather successful in the pursuit of their avotations.
One gentleman lost 3-50 t, and another had 801. taken ont of
his pocket. A Cork gentleman discovered the hand of one
of the swell mob in his wife's pocket, and had the party
instantly arreeted.

A miserable-looking young man was charged with creating

the person so offending, 11.1 given into cusitady.
It was gated that the defendant in the earlier partof the
day had teen throwing the bills in question into the windows
of different otenibuns and had been taken to the Vine-
greet polive-station, and discharged with a caution not to re-
peat the offence.
The secretary of the company banded in one of the bills,
observing that they were dept ived of any other remedy than
giving the defendant, who wan the mere instrument in the
hands of ahem into custody for the falsehood and libel con-
tained in the bill, as there wee no printer's name to it.
Defendant said that a gentlemen met bite in the street
that evening and gave him the bills to distribute, with a
shilling for his trouble.
Mr. Paynter observed that the law wee in a strange elate
respecting the matter, for although a person might be taken
into custody for distributing &libel, which this most assuredly
woo, without the printer's name' and was liable to a penalty
of 51., proceedings mold not be taken without the consent of
the law officers of the crown. He thought it wee a serious
offence, and be should remand tho cue to gire the company

required legal authority.
Defendant was ordered to find very trifling ban, and unable

PARIS, SUND&T EVINING.

The government candidate for the third circum•
scription of the Loire Inferieure, where there is a
vacancy to be filled up, u the Mundeur announced
the other day on Nov. 16, is M. Simon, a councillor-
general. It does not yet appear that there will be
any opposition candidate. A M. Crucy, who wu
for a moment in the field, has retired.
The republican party have started M. Jules Fevre
as a candidate in the department of the &Ohs,
where a new election is about to take place, in the
room of a deputy deceased. The learned advocate
is now at Thames, where he is about to plead in
another electoral cause, that of M. Bonecarta
against the Opinion du Midi, the organ of the
prefecture.
It is rumored that Baron Sine, the rich Vienne
banker now in Paris, is at the head of a company
formed for the purpose of rebulding the levee
theatres of the Boulevards, which are shortly to be
demolished to make way for improvements. The
estimated cost of the constructions is 30,000,000 k,
of which it is said Baron Sins subberibes 13,000,000.
, The truth of this report, which is going the round
of the papers, is very doubtful. The Unicers
r joicee in the contemplated destruction of the " Bea•
; leveed Theatres," as at least a positive good welch
accomplished, and indulges a faint but still sweetly
intolerant hope, that the chapter of accidents may
indefinitely postpone their reconstruction.
The attacks upon the memory of Prince Engem' e
Beauharnais contained in the posthumous mcmoin

of Marshal Marmont, provoked a few months doe
animated replies in all the French govemmeot
journals, the Moniteur included. In consequence d
the sensation produced by the discussion, a collectioe
of the prince's private correspondence is about to be
published, under government patronage. Coot
Teacher de la Pegerie, the Emperor's Chamberlain.
lately brought upwards of 2,000 letters from Basirill
which have been placed at the disposal d
the compiler of the work in preparation. The
feeling in favour of Eugene Beaulutruais is Nen
strong in France, and so far as I have been able to
form an opinion, deservedly so. The name of the
Boulevard Prince Eugene, selected by the mania.
polity for the great street now making, which wit
to have been called the Boulevard du Tronc, is an
evidence of the strong feeling entertained in official
quarters on the subject.
The Prase says in its weekly'commercial reviser:
The zwasares taken by the Bask of France to protect .
bunion, have had, as might have been expected, a coif
prejudicial influence upon business, particulsd/
a moment when preparations were actively use'

It was also dealrable that his exatoination should bo taken at
his residence.
Mr. Bagley said that Mr. Milder was present, and be wished
to examine him. A great deal of the trope rty had not been
traced ; sad private ledger of his badbeen destroyed by his
wife, a few days after the bankruptcy. This rendered inquiry
neerary.
It wee then agreed that George Seriatim, and Francis
Smith should pus, and the 17th of Dec. wee named for their
certificate lotting.
His Honour said he understood that 80,0001. had been
collected under this estate, and that the dividend would be
104. in the pound.
Mr. Lawrence said that was so.
The COMIEWIIOIIR—That spike well for the diligence of
the official assignee and Me auistants.
Mr. lawunea—lt G also In favour of the bankrupts, and
shows that they have not made away with their estate.
Francis Smith was briefly examined by Mr. Bagley as to
I a bill of 5001. drawn by Mr. Memento, which he admitted
be had indorsed after the bank had closed its doors. The
guarantee to Mr. Clements for 1601. was in writing, and wee
given at tho time the money we. advanced to Balham.
Serivena and Free. Smith than passed' the examinational
the thee two tankrupts wee adjourned till the 17th of De-
cember._ . " •

Gin Honour, having the bill of the accountants before him,
observed that the amount was large (6831.), but the accounts
were very voluminous, and as the assignees did not object to
the charge, he should allow it—the amount to be appor-
tioned between the joint and the separate estates. The result
was very satiefActory as regarded the speedy realisation of the
onsets. The first money had only been received on the 6th
of July, and now there wee 80,000/. in hand, sufficient for a
dividend of 10e. in the pound. There had also been realised
1,7381. on the separate estate of Francis Smith, 1,8001. on
I the estate of Tilden Smith, and upwards of 6,2001. on the
I estate of George Serivene, which would yield a surplus after
I paying all his private debts in full.
Mr. Whitmore said there would be a surplus from this
;state of upwards of 5,0001. It was proposed to declare a
dividend of 20e. in the pound on the private estate of Scrivens
at this !Dieting, and also a dividend of 10.. on the joint
state; the final dividend to be in December.
A claim of 571., by the trustees of the Itawkhurst Savings
Bank, wee ordered to be paid in full, under the prey:lions of
the Savings Bank Act.
Some disputed proofs, as well as the examination of Mr.
Hader, were adjourned to this day.
A dividend of 10.. in the pound on the joint aortae was
then ordered to be made ; the time of payment will be an-
nounced ho the ordinary way.

gan. of firm of Humpbeey, Son, and Morgan, appeared
on behalf of the priponer Jones.
Before entering into the case, it was intimated that it was
