FANCY' BALL, KING'S TAEATRE.

Maequerading, it has been observed, is hot agreeable to
the English character, and we thoroughly agree with the
rtMark. The Englishman informed rather of firm than of
pliantclay ; he cannot lay aside his wonted dignity, to frisk
and caper in disguise: that this is the true cause of the gloomy
sobritty which always mars the attempt at a masquerade in
this country, and not any phlegmatic immobility In the
national character, is evident from the strong and rapid
excitement which is produced among us by congenial
motives. Last night we witnessed an instance of this ge-
nerous excitability, when a Ball for the Spanish and
Italian Refugees drew together one of the most numerous
and moat brilliant assemblages ever witnessed: it was a
truly patrician company—a magnifiCent display of rank
and fashion. The beauty which filled the room appeared
' to be animated with the beneficent objects of the meeting
and among the patrons of foreign patrician', we saw many
of the brightest ornaments of British chivalry. The pit
was, as usual, united to the stage, and tastefully decorated.
A few quadrille parties were for Med theft as well as in
the Kinea concert-room ; but so great was the crowd, that
the dancers could not " trip it as they went," but were
obliged to walk " the mazy ring." The refreshments,
which were laid in the concert room, were excellent, as
well as the music. Many of the dresses, or rational
costumes, were tasteful ; and every face seemed enlivened
with an air of hilarity end enjoyment : in short, the bill,
we rejoice to say, was eminently successful.

TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SENATE OF THE UNI-
VERSITY OF GAM BRIDOE.
GENTLEMEN,
IT has of late been promulgated an generally, that it is
my intention and my duty to reire from the Contest for the
Representation of the University, that I feel it incumbent upon me
to take this public mode of mectirg both these statements ; of as-
suring you, in the first place, that I am determined to come to the
Poll, on TUESDAY NEXT, and of eati.fying you, that if it be
the duty of any Candidate to retire, that duty does not devolve
upon me.
You will recollect that T came forward as a Candidate for the
Representation of the University on the death of Mr. Smyth.
Among the first of those who cannot consent to make further con-
cessions to the Roman Catholics, I was one of the ffrat that intl.
mated an intention to stand. 1 received considerable encourage-
ment; but at once withdrew my pretensions, in deference to the
superior station and claims of the Speaker; nor could I. from my
necessary absence on public duty in Ireland, Teatime my canvass on ,
his aubsequent retirement. I gave, however, the most distinct inti-
mation that I should, on the next occasion, solicit your Suffrages;
and, in conformity with the pledge so given, I now come forward.
I have stated to you, individually, the ground upon which I rest
my claim to your support—that of undeviating attachment to the
Constitution of my Country ; and you cannot fail to be aware that
I have, nearly twenty yearn, steadily sad consistently resisted the
admission of Roman Calholten to. Political Power in Livia Protestant
State. I have had suligient opportunity al ustrutaining that my
principle are riot disapproved by you. I have received distinct
promises of snprort from nearly 500 members of the Senate; a
number greater than that ever polled by any sneces4ful Candidate,
exceptbg Mr. Pitt. 1 have received the most encouraging assur-
ances from many others, who have declined pledging their Votes
until the period of Election ; and I leave it to you to decide, whe-
ther, with this body of support, it would be becoming in me
to retire.

Every sacrifice of personal Interest or distinction I would wil-
lingly make, to insure the success of the princiolta Which I have
uniformly maintained ; but I feel that I should be betraying the
confidence reposed in me, if I were now to abandon a Contest which
gi ICA mews Nil a prospect of zealously representing your opinions
In Parliament.
I hsve the honour to he, Oontlemen,
Your moat faithful and obliged humble servant.

READING SAUCE.
rCOCKS, the Inventor and Proprietor of the CELE-

to caution the Nobility, Families, and the Public, against the
daily Frauds and Impositions practised by many London and
Country Oilmen, who are offering for sale spurious Compositions
of their own as READING SAUCE.

None are genuine but those which have the c rke sealed with the
impression, "J. COCKS, READING," and also these words,
on Orange-coloured Labels, " Reading Sauce, for Fish, enriching
Gravies, &c. prepared aid sold. wholesale and retail, by J. Cocks,
Reading." Warranted to keep good seven years in any climate.
It is presumed that no Sauce ever met with such general appro-
bation and extensive sale ; it is patronized and recommended by
most Families in the kingdom, and retailed in London by 250 of
the most respectable Oilmen and Fish-Sauce Venders; in Bath, by
30; Bristol, 20; Edinburgh, Glasgow, Perth, and Aberdeen, 50;

he was therefore not discouraged. Ile was, indeed, a greater no.
sire than any of the other candidates in electioneering, and he did

WESSEL'S JESUIT'S DROPS, and SPECIFIC
REMEDY.
The genuine Jesuit's Drops have been long known and esteemed
a safe, cheap, effectual, and often an immediate, Cure for Stran-
guary, Gleets, and Weakness of the Kidneys or Bladder ; and
when taken on the first attack of Venereal infection, they will in-
fallibly accomplish the desired effect Should the complaint be far
advanced, it will be necessary to take the SPECIFIC REMEDY
with the Jesuit's Drops.
Purchasers are particularly requested to ask far Joseph Weasel's
Jesuit's Drops, and to be careful that a preparation, under the name
of " Dr. Walker's Drops," is not imposed on them in the place of
the genuine, which is distinguished from the counterfeits by having
on the Government Stamps, " Joseph Weasel. St. Paul's."
The Drops are in Bottles of 2s. 9d., Ils., and 225. The Specific
is 2s. 9d. per Pot.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, FRIDAY, JUNE 9.

This day was appointed for hearing arguments on rules for new
trials, but owing to the absence of Counsel on the different elec-
tions, the Court were only able to proceed on two, which were of no
public interest.
The LOAD CHIEF JUSTICE Imposed a hope that gentlemen
who were concerned in new trials fyom the Home Circuit would be
ready in as many of them as possible to-morrow ' • for, looking at
the bar (the benches of which were very thin) and knowing, as his
Lordship did, what was at present going on throughout all parts
of England, he feared the Court would be able to do but little in
the present term.
The Court then proceeded to give judgments.

that Lord Jolm Russell had been brought forward as a friend of

he had given in favour of Catholic Emancipation. Rut he woold

three Candidates, Mr. now., Mr. Stratton, and Mr. Ashum, Were

After the King Writ and the Bribery Act had been read, the
candidates were proposed as before.
Two freeholders then called upon Mr. Stratton to swear to his
qualification, _ _

The Honourable Gentleman said this was a most ungracious

fied; but he would take the oath, if Mr. Ashurst and Mr. lane
required him to do so.
Mr. Whitely, as counsel for Mr. lane, diiiclairrtel all interfe•
rence on his part. The qualification was railed for by two freehol-
ders who had a right, by the Act of Parliament, to require the
oath to be taken.

Mr. STRATTON then demanded the names of the freeholders
thus acting ungraciously, as he said ; and then, after taking the

Mr. As HURST and Mr. FAME then swcre to their respective
qualification.

116nm/tently with the broken fragments of the chair to the sink .pool
at the rear of the College kitchen, forcing along with them two or
three of Mr. Plunkett's adherents, whom they had separated from
their friends. They then threw the chair into the sink-pool, and
after it the unfortunate gentlemen whom they had in their power.
Having achieved this great feat, they gave three cheers, and thus
terminated this creditable scene within the walls of an University."

One of the most extraordinary manifestations of violent party
feeling that ever disgraced a community of educated persons occur-
red in the city of Dublin last night. Yesterday the Attorney-
General was to give another grand dinner to a large parry of those
distinguished Fellows and Scholars of Trinity College, who hal
interested themselves in hit return to the New Parliament. It
was, of course, a matter of notoriety in the University, that this
entertainment would take plaem and a faction, consisting for the
most part of students who disapprove .Mr. Plunkett's political
opinions, but who are not entitled to vote at elections, thought
this would be a proper occasion to indulge their dislike of the Right
Honourable Gentleman, nnl that to assault his guests with
bludgeons as they retired from his house, and attack his residence
itself, would be a becoming and gentlemanlike manner of effecting
their object. Accordingly, between eleven and twelve last night,
these gentlemen sallied forth, in a compact body, armed with
clubs, and took up a position in front of Mr. Plunkett's noble
mansion in Stephen's-green, where they soon gave proof of thell
intentions, by the use of very violent and menacing language and
gestures. Part of the Attorney-General's family prudently sent off
to the Police-office in College-street, and Mr. Gabbett, the Bar-
rister, and Magistrate of the division, came instantly to the spot,
attended by Mr. Goodison, and strong parties oldie horse and foot
patrol. The assailants then, seeing that any attempt to carry
their original views into effect must be defeated, after some idle
threats and imprecations, disappeared.
Mr. Plunkett's guests began to retire at twelve o'clock, and by
one the whole had left the house. The police continued to patrol
the Green and the neighbouring sheets all night, but noldisturb-
ance occurred, although it was said that the first actors in these
►cenes had been shut out of the College for the night, in conse•
guence of not being within the gates at the hour appointed for
closing them.

MOUTH.

Dr. JENNE% submitted emotion to the Court on behalf of the
Countess of Portsmouth, praying that she might have some money
advanced by the Earl's Curr.mittee, to enable her to carry on the
suit instituted against her. He then remarked, that great injustice
would be done towanls Lady Portsmouth, unless she could have the
witnesses subjected to cross-examination.
The PROCTOR. on her behalf, observed, that not less than nine-
teen witnesses had been already named for examination in support
of the suit.

The Learned Judge inquired if any steps had been taken with a
view of bringing the petition which was tiled in the Court of Chan-
cery. before the Court since the suit was last mentioned ?
Dr LUSHINGTON, who appeared for Lord Portsmouth's Com.
mittee, said he was not aware of any thing having been done to
aid Such an end.

Dr. JENNE* pressed for the cause in the Censistory Court be.
in suspended until that petition was heard.
Dr. Lusitimor ow contended that if such a mode were to be
adopted, great injustice would be thereby done, as it might happen
that some important witnesses might die.
The PROCTOR observed that unless the cause were suspended,
the petition would not be premed to be heord.
Dr. LUSHINGTON remarked that either party might urge the
petition before the Court of Chancery.
bar CHRISTOPHER ROBINSON inquired when the petition was
Bled ?

Dr. Lusa moron said, on the idth of April last.
The LLAIINED JUner then suggested that an application
should be made to facilitate the hearing of the petition.
Dr. LUSRIWOTOX, in conformity to the suggestion, raid ha
would take care that an application should be made to the Counsel
in the Courted Chancery, yids a view of obtaining a hearing with
u much speed as possible.

MATHIAS z. LEY.

Mathias, the plaintiiinlbisc4e:;coni-merchant retiding in
Wales, some time since sent some corn to Me•ars. Ryland and Son,
his corn-factors ; but they having no warehouses of their own, in
which they could safely deposit the corn, transferred it to the ware-
houses of Messrs. Knight and Ryland ; bo:lt those houses subtle-
quently became bankrupts, and the corn, which was wa•ehoused in
the stores of the latter firm, was mired for rent. The question was,
whether corn so deposi ed could be liable to seizure.
The LORD CHIEF JESTICE said the protection of trade re-
quired that corn warehoused, such as that in question had been,
should not be liable to seizure for rer t. In expressing that opinion
he was not extending the principle of protection wfich was afforded
by law to goods deposited with wlnirfingers for exportation or
otherwise, but apply ir;; that principle to the present case.
The Jury, under dm direction of his Lordship, gave a verdict
for the plaint ff.

cox v. cox.

Dr. STODART said this was a suit commenced by Mrs. Cox
against her husband, for the restitution of conjugal rights. The
Court had allotted her 3001. a year alimony, and he had paid va-
rious sums on account thereof. Mr. Alderman Cox now came
forward with an affidavit, stating that leis income had been re-
duced one-third, and he therefore wished the alimony to be reduced
in the same proportion.
Dr. JEMNER said that Mr. Cox's income had been stated at
I,OOBE per annum, which was now represented as being reduced
to I,OOW.

_ ,__-..
Dr. STODART signified that it war so. lle further remarked
that Mn. Cox had caused heavy expenses to her husband.
Dr. JEERER said it was his own dowry.
The Cotter ultimately, atter a few other observations from the
Learned Civilians, directed the alimony to be reduced from 3001.
to 22W. per annum.

[From the DubHe Aforning Register of Saturday.]

A dreadful murder was committed In the neighbourhood of
Dublin. at two o'clock yesterday morning ; the unfortunate victim
is the Rev. Mr. Irogon, who has been foe many yearn curate of
Donnybrook. The affair is as yet involved in considerable myste.
ry. The circumstances that have transpired are as follow :-31r.
%Vegan resided in Sandymount.lane, on the Rock Road, In one of
the row of houses on the left of the lane. The mils• inmates of the
house, besides 31r.%Vogan„ were a man named Kelly tied his wife,
who have lived for two years In the service of the deceased. These
people, who aye in custody on suspicion, erste, that just es the
clock struck two, they heard a noise as if of some nelson 6o the
stairs; they at first thought it was Mr. Wogsr, but alter a little
time Kelly got up and rent upon the lobby, where he was met by, a
man who asked him If he had any money: on answering in the
negative, the man knocked hint down. Kelly then returned to his
room, where he remained for a quarter of an hour, being afraid to
learn it ; during this t-me Mr. Wogan was heard to call out;
Kelly, on going to 31r. ll'ug!tn's room, at the expiration of a quer.
ter of an hoar, found him in his bed, with his skull. beat to pieces.
No alarm was given by Kelly or his wife until four o'clock. The I
wound on his head appears to have been inflicted with some sharp
heavy instrument; a spade. which was found in one of the rooms,
was brht to the police Mkt, as likely to have been the weapon
employ; it did not, however, exhibit any appearance of bring
used foe such a purpose. Kelly and his wit, appose that the
robbers effected their entrance and retreat by a lobby window. No
property is miming from the house; 111 r. Wogan's watch and
purse were found under his pillow. It would also appear that
Mr. Wogan was out of his bed when he received the death-
blow, and that be was removed into it after the murder was per-
petrated.

Kelly and wife wederwent a private examination yesterday, be-
fore Sir Garret Seville, at College-street °Glee; they *ere from
thence sent, under charge of the police, to attend the coronet's In.
quest, which Alderman Mon:gomery proceeded to hold at the
house of the deceased. Kelly has a cut over his right eye, extending
down the cheek, as if from a blow of a stick or poker.
