Kith uninittel pleasure by every class of our fellow-citi-

this city on the nest general cicction. 'Ms we have are-
smently recommended oursvlves. But it is only justice to
tine of our contemporaries, the 3fr,caotik Advertiser, a
journal which is g' nerally considered es one of the organs
of the commercial int:rest, to say, that it strenuously ad-
vecateti this measure in its number of yesterday. 11'c now
state Irvin authority, and from personal knowledge of the
fall, that several thonsantl pounds are subscribed for the
purpose of bringieg Mr. Rol:mann in free of expense. It
is quite impassibb: that any at- an, not a citizen of Dublin,
esu appreciate the importance of this arrangement. This
