LONGFORD COUNTY ELECTION
COMMITTEE.-(THIS DAY.)

The Committee assembled ,to-day at eleven o'clock, and
proceeded with the scrutiny. Of five votes objected to on the
part of the petitioners, three were retained, and two struck off.

CARLOW ELECTION COMMITTEE

(THIS DAY.

The Committee met to-day at eleven o'clock.
Mr. MESSMER stated the case for the petitioners, who al-
leged that the return of the sitting Member was obtained by
bribery and corruption, by gross and unconstitutional intimida-
tion on the part of the Catholic priesthood, by misconduct on
the part of the High Sheriff and his assessors, and by the
undue admission of persons on the Registry by the Registering
Barristers. The Booths, said the Learned Counsel, were be-
sieged by the priests, who, not satisfied with-using their tem-
poral power, denounced ail persons who voted against Mr.
Vigors with the penalties of eternal damnation. These de-
nunciators influenced even the tenants of Mr. Bunbury, to
vote against him, although it was almost universally admitted
that a better man in every relation of life did not exist in the
County of Carlow. He would prove b•r evidence the allega-
tions which he had just glanced at, and when he had done so,
he had no doubt but that the Committee would honourably
and impartially discharge their important duties.
The Learned Counsel then called Mr. J. Humphrey, the
Clerk of the Peace for the County of Carlow, who produced
the poll books of the last election, and after a-short examino.-
tion they were received as evidence.
Mr. THESSIGER then proposed striking off the votes of all
persons whose right to vete was rejected by the Committee
which sat on the last petition against the return of Mr. Vigors.
Mr. NlAtma objected to the opening the registry, and went
through the various 'sections of the Irish Reform Act, with a
view to show that the registration of the Barrister in Ireland
was conclusive, and that it was beyond the jurisdiction of the
Committee to open it.

KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)

PICKARD V. SEARES.

The COURT gave judgment in this case, which was an
action in trover, for the recovery of the value of some ma-
chinery and other articles, against the purchaser from tlie
Sheriff, making the rule for a new trial absolute.

BILL FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF

IRELAND.

The Bill brought in on Monday last by the Marquis of
Clanricarde,to which we alluded in The Sun of Tuesday, en-
ables the Lord-Lieutenant to appoint the Commissioners
of Public Works, or any two of them, Commissioners under
the Bill, and imposes an oath of impartiality, &c. Their
duty is to be—to report upon the following matters of
public concern when brought before them :-
1. Works for connecting rivers and lakes with each other
and with the sea.

2. The rendering rivers and lakes navigable.
3. Cleansing and scouring of streams.
4. Draining of districts.
5. Preserving lands from inundations.
Together with the expenses of executing such works—the
proportion which each individual interested should contri-
bute—whether any and how much land should be purchas-
ed or taken as an allotment for such expenses—whether
any and how much land may be damaged, &c.
It further directs that copies of the plans and estimates
of such works shall be deposited in the district for public in-
spection—that objections may be raised to such plans and
estimates, which objections shall be examined into by the
Commissioners.

They are to report from time to time to the Lord Lieu-
tenant, and these reports are to be laid before Parliament.
They are further to report whether it is expedient that
any and what bogs should be drained, at what expense, and
what equivalent by allotment should be made.
Powers are given to examine works, enter upon lands,
&c. ; to examine upon oath and to appoint assistant com-
missioners.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DATA.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK'.
•
Our arrivals this morning are the French and Ostend
mails, and ship-letters from Demerara, Tobago, and Val-
paraiso ; Bombay of the 24th and 31st of Dec, and Cape of
Good Hope of the 15th of Fbe.

The Cape of Good Hope papers are not of so late a date
as received yesterday, but they contain the following :
" MONEY.—There is a great deficiency either in the cir-
culating medium or in that which causes the medium to
circulate, in the colony at present ; the best bills on Eng-
land, at thirty days' sight, arc at a discount of 3 per cent.
The Commissary finds it next to impossible to raise the ne-
cessary funds for the service. There is now a golden op-
portunity for establishing a commercial bank."
By the express from Paris this morning, we are informed
that in the corner of the Bourse at Paris, generally fre-
quented by the Royalists and Carlists in that capital, it was
stated that Don Sebastian had passed the Ebro with 22
battalions-3,000 cavalry, and 27 pieces of cannon—pro-
ceeding towards Arragon, there to unite with the various
dispersed detachments, and afterwards to march on Madrid.
This account caused some sensation on the Bourse at
Paris, and a fall took place in the Spanish Active Debt of
per cent. It was also stated that some insubordination
had taken place in the Spanish regiments ; but to the pre-
sent time the only thing certain is the fall in the Spanish
Funds.

The following is the substance of advices from Man-
chester, dated the 26th inst. :

" It is a long time since we have heard such general and
gratifying admissions of an improvement in the state of
trade as we met with yesterday. The greater firmness in
the Cotton Market experienced at Liverpool, with the
tranquillizing nature of the accounts from America, pro-
duced their full effects here ; nor did the improvement ap-
pear to be confined to one department—it was equally ma-
nifest in yarns, in the enquiry for grey cloths, and for
printed goods. Country and London buyers of the latter
in considerable numbers were in the market, and there was
a full conviction that prices would not go lower. 'We are
also glad to hear that the silk trade, which has been more
depressed than the cotton manufacture, fully participates in
the improvement."

THE QUEEN,

BRIGHTON, OCT. 27.—The weather continues very un-
settled ; it has rained incessantly all the morninv,:but to-
wards the afternoon it ceased, and the Queen, accompanied
by the Countess of Mulgrave, rode out in a pony phaeton
with outriders, proceeding up the Marine Parade. Miss
Dillon and Miss Paget followed in another pony chaise.
The Duchess of Kent, accompanied by Lady Mary Stop-
ford, rode out shortly before the Queen left the Palace.
The Royal dinner invitations for this evening are limited
to the Hon. Charles Augustus Murray (Private Secretary
to Lord Melbourne) and the Hon. Wm. Cowper. The
Queen honoured Sir David Wilkie with another sitting
yesterday for a picture of State.
Last night crowds of persons congregated near the
theatre in expectation of seeing either the Queen or the
Duchess of Kent attend the performances, as her Majesty
had been graciously pleased to command that the play of
Hamlet should be performed. In this instance the credu-
lity of the Brightonians proved iiighly beneficial to the
managers, for they flocked to the theatre in great numbers
The front of the theatre exhibited in variegated lamps the
word " Victoria." Mr. Kean played Hamlet with great eclat.
The fund collected to erect a monument in commemora-
tion of the birth-day of her Majesty, when Princess Vic-
toria, amounted to about 4001. Mr. Laurence Peel, soon
after her Majesty's accession to the Throne, gave the muni-
ficent sum of 5001. towards the erection of an additional
wing, to be called the " Victoria wing," to the Sussex
County Hospital. A town meeting was held this after-
noon relative to the disposal of the Victoria fund, when it
was unanimously resolved to hand over the amount in aid
of the construction of the additional wing, which, it was
presumed, would be gratifying to the Queen, do honour to
the town, and be beneficial to the cause of humanity.

ILLUMINATIONS IN THE CITY

A gentleman came to the Mansion House yesterday, and
presented to his Lordship a petition, praying that his Lord-
ship would exercise his influence to prevent a general illu-
mination in the city of London on the 9th of November.
He stated that the petition was signed by upwards of 180
of his fellow-citizens, 150 of whom occupied houses in the
line through which the procession was to pass, and amongst
them were some of the most wealthy and influential men in
the metropolis. The petitioners expressed a firm hope that
the precedent of 1832, when a general illumination was upon
the point of taking place, but was superseded by the enlight-
ened proposal of building almshouses, would be followed,
and felt convinced that her Majesty would be delighted at
the idea that the sum of 150,0001. would not be wasted in
gas on the occasion of her visit to the city of London,
where the hearty welcome of warm and loyal hearts awaited
her. The applicant observed that the petitioners were the
more strongly induced to make this appeal by the fact that
the present Lord Mayor had at the time of the former in-
terposition of the civic authorities expressed himself in the
strongest terms against the folly and danger of an illumi-
nation.
The LORD MAYOR said that his opinions were unchanged
upon the subject, but he apprehended that the public feeling
was so strong as to outweigh all sober considerations. Al-
ready vast preparations had been made, and it appeared to
be determined upon that the young Queen should have as
much light on her way home as she would have on her way
to the Guildhall.

The applicant submitted that much greater preparations
had been made in 1832, and the interposition of the Lord
Mayor and the Court of Common Council had succeeded in
completely putting an end to the idea of lighting up.
The LORD MAYOR believed that the Post-office and the
Bank, and all the great public offices, intended to illuminate.
The applicant said that the inhabitants round St. Paul's
had assured him that nothing would give them so much sa-
tisfaction as to find that the illumination was dispensed with.
The Loan MAYOR—WeII, I am of opinion that the il-

lumination ought not to be general, at any rate ; but I
must refer you to the Lord Mayor Elect, who will take my
place on the Bth of November, and to whom the question
will more properly belong.
The applicant then waited upon the Lord Mayor Elect,
who came afterwards to the Justice Room, and produced a
resolution of the Court of Common Council of the 23d of
October, to the following effect :—" This Court request
the Lord Mayor Elect to consider the propriety of illu-
minating the portico of the Mansion House, and of issuing
an intimation to the inhabitants of the City, in, the line of
her Majesty's procession, to illuminate their houses on the
9th of November next."

The LORD MAYOR said that, in his opinion, a recom-
mendation to the effect of the resolution should be sent to
the inhabitants. He should, however, mention what, had
taken place to the Police Committee as soon as possible.

the great labour and reading which must have been made subser-
vient to it, deserve the success which it has experienced, and the
good opinion which we now, readily, pronounce on it."—Monthly
Review.
" For general reference it is superior to any of the same size, and
as a school-book has no competitor."—New Monthly Magazine.
" Mr. Bourn's plan is a very goad one, and very pleasantly exe-
cuted."—Literary Gazette.
