DUBLIN, TUESDAY.—At the recent annual cattle•show
in Galway, it was arranged that the exhibition of the
Royal Agricultural Society for 1853 should be held in
Killarney. This was effected through the intervention
of Mr. Pierce Mahony and Mr. Dargan, the eminent rail-
way contractor, the latter of whom volunteered to give
the necessary indemnity, on his own account, for 500/.
The landed proprietors of Kerry will, however, gladly
subscribe that amount amongst them, whilst gratefully
declining the liberal offer of Mr. Dargan. It is stated
that the Queen and Royal Family contemplate a visit to
this country during the Great Industrial Exhibition of
1853 iu Dublin, for which the preparations are already
in
a
forward state. It is considered probable that her
Majesty and her illustrious Consort will avail themselves
of the opportunity of proceeding from Dublin to Killar-
ney by railway, and the agricultural show will take place
in that town about the period mentioned for the Royal
visit. The railway communication with Killarney is
likely to be completed long before that time, and it is
hoped that her 'Majesty will visit the far-famed scenery
of " the Lakes."

THE HARVEST,--In all parts of this country the busi-
ness of the harvest is now in active operation; and so
great is the demand for labourers, that wages have risen
considerably beyond the rates in previous years. In the
county of Dublin reapers are obtaining half-a-crown a
day. The reports of the cereal crops are most satisfac-
tory, and there is the fairest prospect of an unusually
abundant harvest. There are renewed assurances of the
stoppage of the potato blight. Although there is a con-
siderable loss in that crop, it is calculated that the resi-
due will be nearly adequate to the ordinary supply of
the markets, in most districts. Potatoes are again ad-
vancing in price, in Dublin.
IMPRISONMENT OF MR. DELMEGE.—The following
letter from Mr. Delmege, J.P., now in the gaol of Ennis,
appears in the Dublin Boning Mail. That journal
states that an application for the admission of Mr. Del-
mega and the eight soldiers to bail will be made in the
Court of Queen's Bench Chamber on Wednesday next:—

GREENWICH PARK.—We have frequently called
attention to the shameful state of Greenwich Park. About
a month since notice was taken of the falling of a dead
branch from one of the trees, and one especially was then
mentioned, which was in a most dangerous state ; no attention
was paid to that, nor will there be, until a similar fatal result
to that of last year takes place, when a child lost its life.
A few days since Mr. Moore, the churchwarden of Green-
wich, while in the park with his children, had moved from
under one but a few seconds, when a dead bough fell on the
spot he had just left. At the time there was no wind, so the
state of the tree must have been evident. Any person
walking round may perceive hundreds of such cases, that
would not be tolerated in a private gentleman's estate; yet
here, in a public Vice, visited daily by thowazum,..-
