DUBLIN, SEPTEMBER 11.

Sir Benjimin Blomefield returned to towit this
day front is visit to his friends and relatists in the
country. It is understood he will sail to-morrow
for England.
Lord Milian) departed on Saturday on a tour to
the south of Ireland.

The Theatre was attended by an elegant and
crowded audience on Saturday evening ; the play
was The Second Part of Slag Henry the Fourth,
with the pageant of The Coronation, which con-
tinues to be performed with undiminished attrac-
tion.

Last evening Mr. Charles Kemble took his be-
nefit ; tlw performances were/flag Henry the Fourth,
and Youth, Love, awl Folly.
This evening the Theatre will close for the sea•
son, with King Henry the Fourth, and Ihe Agree-
able Surprise.
We have heard that his Majesty's expenses whilst
in this country were not less than ten thousand
pounds per week.
The Magistrates of the Head Police Office have
very properly dismissed a horse police man for
brutal conduct towards a respectable citizen, on tie
day of the royal embarkation.
The name of the poor woman who was forced into
the sea, by the pressure of the crowd, on the day of
his Majesty's vatbarkatiuu, is Boyd. Iler son wee
under ►entence of death for the rubbery of • man
at Rockbrook, Itathfarnham. Iler agitation sod
arixrety was so great that her senses had literally
failed her; her petition, however, reached his Ma-
jesty, and her sou's life be., in consequence, been
saved.
We (Drogheda Journal) have great plessure in as.
sormeine the following circumstance, %loch took place
during his Majesty's visit to Slane :—A young Gviitlentan
of this town, who had bees of opinion that a strict combi-
nation of musical sounds could be produced by an instru-
ment formed from a Horse's Head, undertook to make one,
and succeeded in bis attempt, even to Ws mmt sanguine ex-
peetstinns. Baying completed this extraordivary work at
the pelind of his Majesty's late visit, he lust no time in pre-
senting it, well knowing his Majesty's wish to foster musical
talent ; and we subjoin the gracious answer which the Mo-
narch made through our gallant eountryntaa, Sir Benjamin
BlonieSelif, Bart.:—

" Dahlia Castle, August 2S, 1621.
Sfis—l have bad the boomer to present fur the King's
arceptance, the very interesting and curious musical icsiro.
Meal you entrusted to my cure. His Majesty rommands me
to offer the expression of his thanks for your attention,
which could nut fait to be acceptable to his Majesty.

Mr. Peter Vousdon, or this city, was the lost of
those who went into the water. and quitted the
rays! barge, on the day of the King's embarkation.
1-le had a letter in his hand, directed to Sir lienja.
min Blousefield, covering a Farewell Poetic Address
to his Majesty, adapted to matte. He held the
gunwail of the barge, just near the stern, with his
left hand, in which the paper was—his feet in the
water ; when the barge wished off from tl►e slip, lie
was, of course, instantly drawn several Pert into the
sea, the barge still going on. His Majesty's :attn.
bon, during this time, seemed to be much fixed,

with great anxiety depicted its his emmten..nre,

any time during the greatest peril, unmanageable. These

belonging to a gentleman, on deck, when the packet was
rolhug violently, the sea running mountains high ; the
foamier began to plunge most violently, and two of them
breaking through smut plank wwk, got their legs into the
aperture ; from this situation it was fumed imporisibte to ea-
triad, them, and there was no alternative bust to destroy
them, or risk the safely of the remaining horses. After
consulting Mr. Ratings, who bad thew iu charge, it was
agreed that they should be destroy, el. This being done,
the attention and labour of the people uu humid was applied
to other matters, and the vessel arrived safely on Wednesday
afternoon.

It has been staled that there were five fret water in the
hold. Those who know any thing of the structure of these
vessels must observe, that the file plates are only 18 inches
above the keel of She vessel; and therefore this statement
must be iucurreet, as the engines were working the whole lif

nounced perfectly sound, sailed again on Friday, anal ar-
rived safely in Dublin on Saturday. The Iwo horses on deck
were isaisijured; of the resnaiuing four hones of his Majesty,

sengers, among whom were Captain JoWe, Captria Hiram,
Mr. sad Mrs. Logier, and Mr. Jackson.
There was besides, a carriage of his &ice Henry the Lord
Lieu gement, and six horses.

One Irish vessel had • number of cattle drowned,
and another had one hundred pigs graphed over-
board from the deck, in the gale of Tuesday night.
So violent a gale has seldom been known at this
season of the year.—(Liverpool Paper.)
Since the late engagement between the police
and country people, near Arkeatun, peace and or-

hood.

All the Circuits in Ireland (except the Munster)
commenced on Thursday last. The Munster Cir-

INSTALLATION CORRESPONDENCE.

[FROM THE DUBLIN FkEEMAN'I JOURNAL.]

The annexed correepondence has taken place ►x-
tweeze the Lord Mayor awl the Dean of St. Petrick,
in consequence or the following paragraph :
de Before the commencement of the cereencessy of the In-
stallation, the Lord Mayor and the Sheriffs wen: observed
to occupy a situation which had been appropriated, in the
Cathedral arrangevarnic, for the Chancellor of the Diocese.
The Stewards, in the first instance, and, subsequently,
Ulster King of Arm•, r. maestro' d uu the impropriety of
their continuing to remain in such a situatiou. The Lord
Mayor, however, conceiving, that he had • right to retain
the place chosen by him, declereel that nothing but fume
should remove him from it. It is 'mercenary to add, that
such a measure was nut resorted to in a place so sacred."

I have read with much surprise iii this day's Freeman's
Joirraal, the annexed paragraph, republished, as I presume,
by the direction or under the authoilty of the Kum at Aim.,
and as 1 feel myself called upon under Ste circumstance to
reply to so invidious and usimeritted a publication, I request
you will have the goodness to say, whether or nut, the situ-
ation which I and the Sheriffs oemtpied on the day of the M.
stallation in the Cathedral, bad nut been un the Jay previ-
ous thereto pointed out by you to ene, as the one which had
been theretofore occupied by our predecessoes in office, and
particularly in the year 1819 (which was since the appoint-
ment of the present King ■t Arms as Atteudant ene the
Order), by the Lord Mayor. It was my lineation to have
treated the paragraph to which I allude with silent con-
tempt, but its re-appearance calls on me to reply to it, and
which will best plead my excuse fur troubling you upon the
subject. I cannot conclude without expressing my sincere

that I can have nu hesitation to mate my perfect recollec-
tion of having dune so—in the year 1819, the Lord Mayor

to which you allude, and I confess I am at a loss to
understand what necessity there existed fur departing
from the arrangement then adopted. I am not pre-
pared to assert into whom hands the limner of disposing of

a privilege of which I was not very ambitious; it was exer-

The departure of Baton Strtugonoff, as you will

dilation net the political egMbtquelices with whit ti
it is Llcely to be followed. You must not absolutely
infer a war from it at all, and certainly nor an im-
mediate one. Under the present system of Europe,
a couault•ttton between Alexander and his allies
seems to be an indispensable necessity. This can
take place in no mode so convenient its that of a
Congre.s, and if time is afforded for deliberation,
the difficulties in the way of au adjustment of the
dispute will be Itsstiod, if out removed. A me-
diation, and a roiverful one, on the put of
England and Austria, will no doubt be uttered,
fur the policy of both those Governments manifestly
tends towards the preservation of peace. The Turk,
theniselve., common sense will suggest, carssot en-
tertain any desire to engage in war with thee► Euro-
