DUBLJP., SEP ri:mstot 12.

On Thursday last, at two o'clock, there was a
great concourse of people assembled at the Pigeon-
hi use-dock. who were highly gratified in witnessing
the first arrival of OW elegant and commodious
new Parke., the Censtitittion. of Liverpool, com-
manded by Captain Tomlinson ; she made the pas-
sage in the short space of Bitten hours.
We have it from authority to state, that the Ros-
common regiment, in the most noble and spirited
manner, came forward a few mornings since upon
parade, and unanimously, to an individual, called
on Lieut.-Colonel Caulfield to communicate their
intention and wishes to extend their services to
wheresoever the present situation of affairs may
make it expedient ; and that their offer accordingly
has been laid by their Colonel, Lord Lorton, before
the Lo'd Lieutenant. We sincerely hope and trust
this high spirit will pervade the Militia of the United
Kingdom.
His Grace the Duke of Richmond has been
pleased to appoint John Rosborough, Esq. Secre-
tary to the Co., missioners for Lighting, Paving,
&c• of the City of Dublin, in the room of Sir Wm.
3. Human, Bart. resigned.
The 91st regiment, which has been stationed at
Killarney. &c. has set out for Cork, in order to join
the 33 /Segiment, and proceed dire& for Canada.
A society has here formed in this city, consisting
of Graziers, for the laudable and patriotic purpose
of raising the price of butcher's meat. Their argu-
ment is, that meat brings a higher pnce at Cork and
Limerick than in Dublin, and that the price here
should be raised to the Cork standard. But if,
says one of our Journals, these patriotic Gentlemen
do not like the Dublin price, who binders them to
convey their cattle by land or sea to Cork and
Limerick? Every man of common sense must
know, that Dublin Bay can never become a station
for an Knglish firer, or the point of assemblage for
a West India convoy. Nature has allotted the
coast of Munster for that purpose, and so long as it
prestives its present position. and the world wags
as it now does. butchers' meat mast be darer m
Cook and Limerick than it snot to be in. Dublin.
Were esstraas even made here. the slaughter would
be in Cork. as the tedious end uncertain navigation
of the Irish Channel would render the freight con-
siderably higher than that from the southern coast
to Portsmouth.

The brig Inixary. of and for Liverpool, which
sailed from Cork on Thursday se'nnight, was
totally lost on the following night, near the Sa!tees,
and all on b .ard perkhed, except one Gentleman, a
passenger, who was providentially saved.
The sloop Alexander, of Ruthsay, laden with
cock, and toriy-nine hogsheads of tobaccos, was
Graven on shore on Wallace Rocks, about a mile
southward of Ballywater„ on Saturday. Another
sloop, name imknown, laden with coals, is on shore
row Burial Isle, Ballyhalbert. Crews all saved.

On Wednesday evening last, the Bristol Pacid,
Walker, from Bristol, with passengers and various
articles of merchandise, was driven on the North
Bt:11. The pavengers, and all the hand:, we are
happy to hear, were s tved by the King's boat from
the Pier-head and the Clontarf life boat. It is
hoped the vessel and cargo may be saves'.
