WESLEYAN REFORM.

Yesterday evening, an aggregate meeting of Wal-
leye* reformers, I. the eight Loader& sad aeighboariatt
eir-
salts, was held at Moor Hell. The body el the hall sad
raised seats were er•wded. It had been museum:ad that Mr.
0. Thompson, H.P would preside, but a letter was read
beta him eta= that he was prevented attending by severe
indisposition, in his absence Mr. W. OANDI was Called
to the chair.

TinealitilliMAN said, that, smording to methodisticial
law, be was no longer • member of the Wesleyan society.
After having endeavoured faithfully to fulfil the duties which
belonged to his aloe es • Wee!trio 'Moister, he had been
expelled by what he believed was the illegal act of an illegal
assembly. (Cheers.) He had been informed that his name
was included with those of his fellow-sufferers in a resolution

about to be submitted to the meeting. Now, he hod nOthii
to do with calling it, and had only heard that it was to
be held within 'the last; few days. The feeling of dis-
approbation with which the proceedings of the eon-
krona was repelled was rapidly ntending ; and he did not
weeder at it. Jest as the knowledge of the principles of
civil end religious liberty imeseed, so would the feeling' of
astraiimeat at the dieing preemption of the own in power

aseseisted in all este ef Mei ire with their ministers. They
did set wish to sane tioa ; the more the subject of
Walleyes Morn wee aired Leto, the better it would be
for the sem._

The Rev. SAMUEL DUNN was received with loud and ,
loog-oontinsed applause. He said he deeply regretted the '
anseirn of their amembling this inning. It was an ace, '
non calculated to excite feelings of an Implement character,
and to all forth warm language, but he trusted that no
weaker would my anything which would have a tendency
to injure their cause, to obscure their spiritual vision, or to
impair their religious energies. He trusted that their
dance at meetinp each as that would confirm their princi-
ples in matters of high importance, and that they would be
enabled to go forth with fresh energy in the cause for the
promotion of which they had assembled. At a previous
nestles, in emluction with Mann. Everett and Orifith,
he had given • full statement of their expulsioa
from the ocafereace—an expulsion without a
having bees preferved against them, without
production of a particle of evidence to prove them guilty,
without an opportunity of def, ace being allowed them, and
without a form of trial. (Shame.) During the last Rine

Din US', KAT 30.
A good deal of marries wee expressed yesterday at
a farther delay ia the admission of Dr. Grey to the
bar, the deeimon en his memorial having been
already
postponed by the benchere about two yews nace
any exam which could have been pleaded for such 4,,
toing at that period of political excitement •
vcirdguttevly vanished in the premien tranquil
of affairs. The obleetion to Dr. Grey is a poll=
one entertained by some of the benchers ; but as'
editor of the Ilnieman'e Journal he has always advo.
sated liberal views of Irish politics on constitutional
principles, and hu never been considered by the law .
officers of the crown to have laid himself open to
prosecution, except in company with the late Mr.
O'Connell and others in 1843; and yet at that
very time, while the state proweation was
pending it was not held to be any obstacle to his ad-
mission as a student of the Queen's Inns. As it is
understood, however, that the further consideration
of the question is only postponed to another day in.
the present term, it is premature perhaps to offer any
opinion on the subject.
The /Veitesan of this day contains the following :
RIPIIIIIIDITATION or DICOONIIDAL.—IS is already known .
to our feeders that in sousequence of the rumour of Sir W.
Soinervllle's elevation to the peerage, there is an expectance
of a vsessey fa the representation of Drogheda. We ace
'tabled so Mat., that in the event of such vacancy ooeurfed„
Joba limaamara Cantwell, Sm., of this city, will canvass •
the constltueacy on repeal and tenant-right principles. It •
is said that Mr. Meredith, Sir W. Somerville'e secretary sad
relative, has been quietly canvassing the electors.
The following Matemenb, which are of consitle.;
Table interest in Ireland, are given in the Londe&
letter of this day's Freeman:
Sir John Young, one of air Robert Peel's steadfast anise..
is elonsionly named for the Irish under-secretaryship, will-,
a seat in the Hesse of COnnaties. Mr. Redington, I believer •
will be the ether. In the event of ministers carrying eng.
this arrangement, whisk is almost universally accepted
the clubs and in polideal eagles es tut jail accompi. it will
be the list step towards the long-talked-ot coalition of
parties. I believe Sir John Romilly has made up his mind
not to extend the provisions of the securities for advances
(Ireland) bill, so that eneumbered proprietors may raise
capital for improvement purposes on land debentures; bat
I bays heard it said, in quarters likely to be well Informed
on the sabjeet, that the Beak of 'relied will be empowered
to make adenine on the security of estates. a pr,vileis they
do not at present enjoy.
Colonel Wyndham has been introducing on his
Limerick estates the English custom of erecting
suitable farm offices for his tenants. On the 22nd
(says the Limerick Chronicle), Captain Crowe, his
agent, gave poasesaipn of a convenient range of offices
at Knock!• een to Mr. D. Cullen, the buildings
having been constructed entirely at Colonel Wynd-
ham's expense. An incident of this kind is perfectly
unique among Irish landlords.
It is stated that several Ergliah capitalists have
arrived in Ireland within the last few days for the
purpose of inspecting lands to be sold under the En-
cumbered Estates Court.

An insurrection of the female paupers took place
in the Limerick workhouses yesterday, owing to the
retirement of the master and matron, at ising out of
an investigation of certain irregularities rfspectinf
some of the contracts. The police and military were
on the alert, and a formidable outbreak was appre-
hended, as the paupers broke out of the house, and
were joined by a town mob, but no outrage on person
or property took place.

TIM LATE MURDER AT CROSSMAGLEN.—The
report of the revolting murder of Mr. Melevcrer eacited
deep sensation of honor in this city, where the mother and
sisters of the victim of wassail, ation reside. Two men named
Hanratty and M'Atavey, and the car-driver, w,-re this day
committed to our county gaol. Mean•ty made a desperate
resi•taece before he was secured by the po:ice. Recently
inflicted wou Eck, one on the head and another on one of the
hands of Hanratty, were observed immediately after his
apprehension. The prisoner's clothes were also stained witk
blood. is presumption of coilusion, or at least of privity
with the murder, exists against the car driver, inasmuch is
there was on the victim of this hideous asses-'cation no
appearance whatever of a gun-.hot wound. The fatal wound
on the back of the head would appear to have been inflicted
by a blunt instrununt —Newry Telegraph.
