IRELAND.

Dein.nt, JOLT 11.
It is scarcely necessary to observe that the fate of
the Irish spirit bill has excited a great deal of an-
noyance and indignation cn this side of the channel.
The absence of so many of the Irish members is ut-
terly inexcusable, and harsh terms are applied to
them without reserve.
A meeting of the Independent Club of Mayo bu
been summoned, to make a selection between the
liberal candidates who are now in the field for the
representation of that county. Although several
oternarres are mentioned, the Freeman's Journal
states that the choice must lie between Mr. Dimly
Higgins and Mr. Joseph Myles M'Donnell ; and there
can be no doubt that any division of the liberal in-
terest on the occasion would be fatal. It appears from
apparently very accurate estimates published by the
Mayo Constitution, a conservative paper, that there
are no more than 378 electors at present in the en-
joyment of the franchise in the county, and of these
mon than ISO are either SOL or 201. freeholders, and
would to a great extent vote for the conservative
candidate. It is scarcely probable then much more
than 330 electors can be brought to the poll on all
sides at the ensuing election.

ATeMomea Anson.—Mi hnel Strilur, • clerk in the
employ of the Irish Society, was charged oa suspicion of
ham made en attempt to set are to the alms oentplod by
the moiety. at No. $2, earkrille street, Plccadfily.
Kr. Dod. for the time, listed that an the 7th of

The dome teen beneath another closet, where the calamity's

sumed that the Ineeathary who placed the audio where it
bed been found had calculated that it would burn down to
the mere about eleven o'clock at night, and that the
closet and probably the house would afterwards
hare been in lames. An investigation took plain,
end the clerks were interrogated. The prisoner was not
suspected at ant; but, in consequenes of information that,
after quitting the aloes for the naa, he bad been seen to
return and go oat again :lint before the discovery of the
lighted candle to the closet was made, he was again ques-

were produced one of them was hand to unlock the closet.
doer. The prisoner MN subsequr nay given into custody on
surpicion aiming been concerned in an attempt to set the
Mime and house on are. A discovery had been made that
considerable sums of money bad been embezzled by some
cue, and the chief clerk had slice &brocaded.

Several witnesses were examined, whose evidence corro-
borated the foregoing namtive of the ease.
Mr. Long said there could not be a particle of doubt as to
the intention of the person who had placed the candle in the
closet. There ersa no reason, however, to suppose that the
sat was the act of more than on. person, and as one person
had ran away under suspicion' circumstances, who had been
ma in the *Moe about half an hour before the candle was
found, the strength of the evidence was in that quarter.
The prisoner bad teen seen to go down stain aft( r the other
clerk had left; but this was evidence of too slight a chard-
ter to set upon' and the question was, could further evi•
donee be got ? In all doubtful cases the law provided that
due stress should be laid on previous character, and here
the evidence was of the highest kind in the prisoner's favour.
As to the key, It was not an uncommon key ; and, there-
fore, the prisoner might have had it innocently in
hie possession. Under all circumstances, especi lly as one
person had absconded, it would be unjust towards the pri-
soner to send him to gaol ; and, therefore, he must dis
shrugs him.
Mr. Dod dated that the committee had authorised this
invettigetion. to give the prisoner an opportunity of excul-
pating himself.

here is to tenger any doubt that the negotiations

VIOLEXT ATTACY I:POIC THIS MAGISTRATE TT Two
FERIALES.—Mary Grogan and Ants ArCarthy were charged
with using improper language in the public streets, and
assaulting the officer in the execution of his duty.
Mr. Ingham, after hearing the evidence, ordered each to
be imprisoned for one month.
Before the sentence had been distinctly pronounced, each
of them suddenly took off their heavy oboes and threw them
with great violence at the magistrate's head, acoompenieo
with dreadful paths and imprecations. F. rtneately for Mr.
Ingham the missiles escaped his head, and merely grazed his
right shoulder. Finding they had w t succeeded in injuring
the magistrate they attempted to break d 'ern the front of the
dock, but several officers being in the 1)14 of the court they
were prevented, but it required the united strength of ten
constables to drag them to the cells, and in doing so their
clothes were torn from their backs. Their violence was so
great when in the latter place that the magistrate ordered
their instant removal to Brixton.

DUBLIN, MAT 10.
The mt vt influential demonstration yet made in
Ireland on the landlord and tenant question, was that
which took place yesterday, at Mullingar, when the
great Westmeath meeting, which has b..en so long
looked forward to, we, held. The meeting was held
in the County Court-house, and presided over by Mr.
W. IL Megan, M.P. ; and not only was the attend-
ance of the farmer and tenant classes very conside-
rable, indeed a great deal too much so for the capa-
city of the building, but, what adds note little to the
weight and value of the popular assemblage in this
country, there were also a great number of the local
gentry and landlords present, and taking part
in the proceedings. Among them were the High
Sheriff, Colonel Caulfield, D.L., Mr. F. P. Smith, J .P.,
Mr. J. M'Cormick, J.P., Mr. J. Deblaquiere. J.P.,
Mr. J. Itynd, J.P.' Mr. J. Delany, J.P., &c, &c.
There were several Roman catholic clergymen pre-
sent. The requisition upon which the meeting was
convened stated the object to be for the purpose c f
considering "the present alarming and ruinous condi-
tion of the tenantry, with a view to obtaining a just
reduction of rents, and presenting a petition to parlia-
ment to establish by law some equitable adjustment
of the relations between landlord and tenant."

ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA.

There was a cencert yesterday mortnrg in Covent
()mien Theatre, on the same great scale, and arranged in
the same =tuner as the concerts given by the directors of
the Italian Opera for several seasons bark. The first part
consisted of Rouini's Stabat Mater, and the second was a
miscellaneous selection of vocal and instrumental pieces. The
whale strength of the establishment—principal performers,
orchestra, and chorus—was called low action, ard
tho result was a splended and magnificent enter-
tainment. There was no novelty ; nor, on such occ:
sions, can much novelty be expected, though something
lees hackneyed might have been ckorn than the St.lbat
Mater, which has been the pi;ce de resistance at the Royal
Italian Opera concerts ever since they were first set on foot.
The miscellaneous portion was chit composed of a num-
ber of favourite airs and concerted pieces selected from the
Operas which tom the repertoire of the theatre, sung by
the performers to whom they belong. The theatre was very
fell, and the entertainment appeared to give great pleasure
to the audience.

TURKEY.

The Journal de Constantinople gives the following
account of the suppression of the instruction at
Santee :

----- -
It was but a few days ago that the news of the magna-
nimous intentions of the sultan and his government were
known at Samos, when the anarchists, to the number of
several hundreds, under the fatal influence of the Ibttairistre,
and headed by Lerma), Arens, Petra, and Tjouvalas, all of
the secret reputation, took up areas on the 13th, in the
@urines of Milos, Make and By. Muatapha Paths,
esommander of the imperial troops, remained for some
time OS the defensive, advising the rebels to make
Their submission. But they pairing in their hostility
towards the imperial troops, Muatapha yea com-
pelled to take the offensive, and whilst he pursued them
in every direction, the flotilla, under the command of Lewin
Bey, took up a strong position in the port of Btephanopo ,lis
k.eping ups regular fire, so that the 'Owls were surrounded
on all aides, and lied in the greatest disorder. Anne was
killed, Petra wounded, and Lecatis taken prisoner ; he will
be seat to Constantinople for trial. The rebels, who sub-
jected to fire and sword all who would not take part in
their abominable projects, had a great number of men killed
and wounded by the imperial troops, who on their side had
only six wounded; among them the brace Colonel Asia Bey.
Thanks to the valour of the imperial troops, the trAnquillity
of Ramos, which had been troubled during two days, bee
been restored, end it is to be hoped that it will sow be
durable.

WEEKLY SUMMARY OF THE PRODUCE

MARKETS.

MINCING-LAME. SATURDAY MORNING.

We are this week enabled to advise an improvement in the
;niece of some articles. Sugar has met with ready pur-
chasers, at an advance of 6d. to is. per cwt., influenced in
soma degree by the result of the Dutch Company's sale, helfl
on the 7th instant, which went off with spirit, and the whole
quantity, consisting of 80,700 baskets Java, was divest ti of
at a rise of about is. to 2s. per cat. upon the previous tuttket
rave. There hes been considerable business done in Rico,
chit My on speculative account, and priers now rule 61. to
le. per cwt. above the late low quotations; about
15,000 bags are reported to hove changed hands. For Coffee
them has been very little inquiry, and plantation Ceylon re-
mains unaltered it price, but for the native descriptions the
rttos are from 39f. to 41. 6J. fee low to line quality. For
Saltpetre there has been an extensive demand, and at about
6J. per cwt. advance A public sale of Tea took plate yes-
tercley, which pawed off very flatly; and only 4,100 package.
were cold out of 19,600 packages put up. I'rices of eongous
were unaltered, but fine gunpowders and common hysone
were rather lower.
