any*. ground of difference erbium between this compsay

Railway Company, who so narrowly escaped daring the late •

Kest-road, for the purpose of ntorning thanks for their de-
liverance. A collection amounting to wisely 101. was made

demand Patrick Hayes.
ACTION AGAINST • NUNNERT.—At the Galway
Record Court, a few days ago, the ems of " M'Dannell o
White " was tried. The action was brought by the adminis-
trator of Mrs. Eliza M'Donnell, to recover the gam of 600/.
given by her to the listen of mercy in the town of Galway. ,
Fire circumstaacee were those:—ln March, 1846, Miss
Harriett M'Donnell, the daughter of Mrs. M'Donnell, being
desirous of bee using a nun of the order of the Sisters of
Mercy, her sister, Mn. Ireland, at the request of Mrs.
M'Donnell. called at the Convent of Mercy to Sag sire as to
the terms of the convent, and to settle with the nuns, Mrs.
White, the mother obtuse, anted that it was abes:ute'y t e
notary that Miss M'Doosull should spend six months as a
postulant in the convent previous to her reception as •
nervier, and that after the ceremony of her reception had
taken place she shou'd pus two years as a novice in the
convent before she could be professed ; she added that they
could not on say account shorten the tints of her pr.,
fession, and that it coul4 not be done without a dispensation
from the Pup, ; they agreed to take the sum of
5001. from Mrs. M D3OllOll for her daughter, and
that it should be left in the hands of her brother-
in-law, Mr. Ireland, until after her profession, and
that is the meanwhile they would tenive the interest for
her support. In the month of May, 1816, the Rev. Peter
Dolly called on Mr. Ireland, and told him it would be of
great service to the nuns if the family would give the money
at once, as they were going to invest some money on very
[avowable terms. Mrs. Par Donnell agreed to give them the
mosey on their usdertakirg to return it, in eau either her
daughter should wish to leave the convent bAore the regulir
time of her profession, as stated by themselves, or in cae,
of her death before then. They agreed to give the strongest
guarantee to that effect, and Mn. White entered into the
following weeniest :
Madans,—Tou here handed to the Rev. Peter Daily, on behalf of
the Sisters of Mercy, Sea merlins, the sun agreed to be received for
your daughter, Harriet MlDounell, on her being professed a non is
this community, which sum we engage to return to you, foe of
Interest, should either the nun' or your dm:udder chance their minds
tulle as period of her said profession wires, or in the event of her
demo before then. AMELIA wcirE.

Ice the month of August, 1847, Miss hi'Donnell took a malig-
nant f.ver. After all hopes of recovery were over the nuns
had her professed a nun. They gave no notice to her family
of her illness until she was past recovery. They now c' n-
tended that as she was professed on her dying bed, they had
complied with the terms of the agreement, The jury found
a verdict for the plaintiff for the sum claimed.
THE HUNGARIAN HElLELo—Morita Perm/, whose
military bravery and patriotic seal have entitled him to share
the exile of Kam* and asthyany, has recently addressed
to his friend Steely, in Paris, a letter in which the fol-
lowing passage occurs: "Our lot is here (at Kiutachia)
pretty much the same as at Shomla. We are strictly
guarded, but at the same time treated honour •bly and wi h
respect. Our hopes ebb and flow according as favourable or
adverse reports arrive. While I write, it is spring tide, fur
we have a prospect of soon joining you. Sometimes in the
bitterness of my heart I pray for a deluge that should sweep
away the degenerate lying civil.sation of Europe, and more
than ones I have said with our honoured Lamartine,"

DRINKING BRANDT FORA WAGER.—This morning,
about five o'clock, a your, sun on the establishment of Mr.
Honks, nimble dealer, of King William-street, Charing-
mom, died, under the following circumstances :—lt appears
that the deceased last night agreed with some companions,
for a trifling wager, to dunk a pint of brandy and then walk
to London-bridge. It is believed that he accomplished the
wager, and was then conveyed home, where he remained is
a state of stupor till the hour above-mentioned this morning,
When he died. The necessary information bag been for-
. warded to the coroner for an inquest on the b re'y to-morrow.
SUICIDE.—Yesterday afternoon a party of labour-
ing nen and their wives, all mon or less intoxicated, were
returning from Battene 1, where they bad been spending the
afternoon, when, off the houses of parliament, a Mrs. Said-
brook, who had connived that so improper intimscy had
taken place between a female of the party and her husband,
in • (may of jealousy threw herself overboard. Mr. Shad-
brook, though unable to swim, leaped in to save his wife;
the unfortunate woman, however, who was very.drut k, was
not seen to flail again, and her husband was with difficulty
dragged into the boat. The body was not recovered.
SUICIDE OF A CHARTIST LZADER.—John Warden,
for many years a Caartist leader in Lancashire, and who was
tried at Liverpool a few years ago, with a number of others, but
acquitted, committed suicide on Monday week by cutting his
throat. Th t incision, however, was not so dap but that he
lingered until Monday last, when he died. His life of late
had bees one continued scene of =Morten,. Father, mother,
brother, wife, sod child--all followed each other in rapid
encomia' to the grave; and, at lest, the sole survivor boards
to wear the aspect of a dejected and pining being, until at
argth,findiog that he was somewhat deficient in his accounts
with his employer, a card-cutter for jacquards, whose books
to kept, he put as end to his existence.
FIRES.—Yesterday s fire broke out, at a quarter
past 8 o'clock, in the patent desiccating washy, 10, O'bornr-
, street, Whit/chapel. When discovered, the wood casing in
. the Whist department, as well as the roof, were (eland io
flames. The engines of the London brigade promptly
but not until eon-
attended, mad the fire was extinguished,
I siderable damage was done. The second fire occurred in the
oil, colour, and Italian warehouse, inloogieg to Mr. A. H.
i Leather, 229, Higia-stroot, Shaderefl. From the fact of toe
I premises being stored with oils, turpentine, gunpowder, and
; other inflammable articles, a serious conflagration was ex-
pected. The engines of the London brigade and West of
•
• Ragland Company were remarkably early In arriving, and
I as aeon ea the finites were somewhat got under, the powder
r was removed into the asset, and the firs shortly afterwards
was extinguished, bat gnat damage was done to the stook in
