At the nomination of candidates yesterday for the re-

definitively to settls the question of free trade. Th. up-
roar, confusion, and fighting among the mob haffi 4 all
description; and s ich were the interruptions offered to
the different candidates, that the proceedings were pro-
longed from eleven till tour o'clock. The inter'erence of
the police to maintain order was frequently resorted to,
but the mob was so strong. and determined that, even
with a strong force at comma it was exceedingly diffi-
cult tt) obtain even a fsw moment.' silence.
Mr. SALX proposed, and Mt. RAXSBOTTOM se-
conded, Mr. Francis Pigott.
Mr. MONCK proposed, and Alderman HARRIS se-
conded, that Mr. KEATING, Q.C., was a fit and

The present week's arrival of English Wheat has been
but moderate, t.ud the show of samples of both red and
white here to-day was limited, but in excellent condition.
Owing to the prevailing fine weather for the growing
crepe, the demand ruled excessively heavy, and prices
were nominally the same as on 2flonduy, without a
clearance being. effected. Scarcely any sales took place
for forward delivery. Foreign Wheat, the supply of
which on offer was but moderate, commanded very
little attention. In the quotations no charge took place,

cargoes of Wheat and Indian Corn were a dull inquiry.
Grinding Barley was held at full quotations, but other

versul admiration, as does another picture of his re-

SIN Cu LAR BA PTlSNl.—Ginnected with the sacra-
ments, Dr. Chalmers often told a favourite
stout a
ory ab
Highland baptism. A clergyman went to
administer the
rite in the house of one of his hearers, near which there ran
a small burn or river, which, when he reached it, was so deep
and swollen with recent rains that he could not get across.
In these circumstances he told the father to bring down his
child to the burn-side. Furnished with a wooden scoop, the
clergyman stood on one side, and the father, holding his
child as far out in his arms as he could, stood upon the other.
When the time come for sprinkling the babe, the minister,
dipping the scoop into the water, flung its contents across,
aiming at the baby's face. He failed more than once, calling
out to the father after each new trial " Weel, has't gotton
coy yet?" Dr. Chalmers wondered what the sticklers for
form and ceremony in the sacraments would think of a bap-
tism by a burn-side, performed with a wooden scoop.

DUBLIN UIVIV_EIiSITY.

The much-vexed question of the nationality of
poor Tyrone Power is set at rest in a biographical
notice of that lamented ornament of the stage, com-
menced in the present number, by one who knew him
long and well—the late manager of the Dublin
Theatre, a writer well known to the readers of this
excellent periodical by his interesting contributions
" Leaves from the Portfolio of a Manager." Ac-
cording to this authentic authority, "William Grattan
Tyrone Power was born near Kilmacthomas, in the
county of Waterford, on the 2d of November, 1797
a soil favourable to the growth of theatrical genius ;
the same county having given birth, at an earlier and
a later period, to Dorothea Jordan and Charles Kean."
Power passed his childhood, after twelvemonths old,
with his widowed mother at Cardiff, in Wales, where
there was " a gentle.men of the name of Bird, dis-
tantly connected with the family through his wife—
a person of high respectability, who conjoined the
triple avocations
.of bookseller,. .publisher, and post-
printer—t.wo facts highly ho-
master. The intimacy with Bird gave rise to an
erroneous report, propagated afterwards with all the
.passessed, would never have shrunk

are then given of hisearly uphill theatrical career,
and his African expedition, till we leave him, at the
age of twenty-four, compelled. to fall back on the stage,
are con-
graphics

ENGLIS HMAN' S. No. 11.
There is an article in this newly-launched periodi-
cal well worth reading, which treats of " Newspaper
Literature." It controverts some of the positions
advanced by Mr. Jerdan in his recent autobigraphy.
A series of " Unphilosophial Criticisms" is corn.
rnenced, the first number being given to Shakspere's
Dramas, on Ancient history ; and the remaining papers
are well written.

TAIT.

The foreign relations of England almost entirely
monopolize the attention of Tait for September. First
of all, in the additional instalment of the series of
papers relating to " The Governments of Continental
Europe," Russia is shown to have advanced during
the last hundred and fifty years to a degree of
power and magnitude by no means justifying the
contemptuous phrases of Mr. Cobden. Since the
accession of Peter I. in 1689, the number of inhabi-
tants has increased from 15,000,000 at that early
period to 58,000,000 on the death (in 1825) of Alex-
ander. Then, under the suggestive title of " Lord
Palmerston, Austria and Italy," another writer gives
his views in reference to the political prospects of the
Roman peninsula. Mr. Macgregor's remarkable
letter to the Prime Minister in regard to the
"United States and the British American
Fisheries" is reprinted elsewhere in the ma-
gazine. Added to these somewhat important
papers, Tait comprises a number of lighter articles—
one a description of " A Day with a Lion," and ano-
ther furnishing additional particulars in reference to
" The Loves of an Apothecary." Several of the
criticisms on recent works—according to the wont
of the magazine under consideration—are searching
and impartial, besides being copiously illustrated by
well-chosen quotations.
