Crowds of Irishmen are daily arriving at the
13roomielaw from the Emerald Isle. The large class of
steamers from Belfast and Dublin are bringing over, and
have done so for some time, from 540 to 600 P
trip, of
the most miserably clad portion of the finest peasantry in
the world. There is now one boat from Belfast every day,
and we believe five from Londonderry per week, and these'
bringing such myriads of labourers as 500 and 600: each
trip, will g've cur readers an idea of the immense influx of
the population of the Sister Isle.—Scotch Pape,.
Oa Wednesday, the 23d instant, the Rev, E. R.
Benyon, of Downhatn Rectory, Essex, laid the first stone
of an intended new church on the Beauvoir Town Estate
at Hackney. The ceremou was duly performed by the
Reverend Gentleman, and in a stone prepared for the oc-
casion were deposited a se!ection of the coins of the last
reign, a medal of the late King, and of the present Quee„,
together with a copper-plate engraved as follows :—" This
Church was erected and endowed at the sole cost of Richard
Benyon De Beauvoir, of Englefield House, in the county of
Berko, Esq. ; and the first stone was laid this 23d day of
August, 1837."

According to the Semaphore de Marseille the
French atxd Neapolitan Consuls at Tunis have recently
shown a culpable degree of weakness. A Sicilian woman,
it appears, had embraced Islamism, but subsequently, stung
by remorse, had expressed a wish to be re-admitted into
the Catholic Church. The French Consul encouraged her
pious wish, and it was at his house that the poor woman di-
vested herself of her Moorish and reassumed her European
attire after which she was delivered over to the Neapo-
litan Consul, to be sent back to her brothers. Tha Bev,
irritated at this act of apostacy, insisted that the woman
should be given up to him. She concealed herself for some
time in the Frank quarter, but eventually tbo two Consuls
abandoned her to the vengeance of the Bey, and as she has
not since been beard of there is every reason to believe she
has been put to death.

It will be recollected of Major Molineaux Williams,
the individual, as he is now designated in Flintshire—
that one of his impeachtne.its of Mr. Mostyn was that
he had coerced tenants at Machynlleth to vote for Colonel
Edwards. Mr. Mostyn does not possess one yard of land
or the slightest possible influence there. So much for
Major Molineaux Williams' veracity. He called into
court on that occasion an unwilling witness of the name
of Barber, who evidently felt that the Major had made
a bad shot. The Major cannot plead that he was misin-
formed because he was as deep in the mud as Barber was
in the mire. The matchless pair were in Machynlleth
together, acting in concert for the Tory. Now, undue
influence was exercised, but by whom ? This very Bar-
ber under the Major's advice. It appears he is a nailer
and malts•er ; and his brother who is a sort of agent for
him, called upon the publicans, holding out the advantage
that if they would vote for Corbett their houses should
be opened at Mr. Wynne's election ; and when snubbed,
as the dirty creature often was, he sneakingly pulled out
his brother's account, and rather perseveringly pressed
for " that small trifle !" What was Major Molineaux
Williams doing there at all ? Why did he interfere ? It
was passing impudence even in him thus to act—but thus
to fib was rank offence. By the bye, he and his veracious
witness, left for Flintshire together, and that their jour-
ney m;ght not seem altogether bootless, they doubtless
concocted the calumny on the way.—Carnarvon Herald.
A LION HUNT.—Suddenly, at the distance of fifty
or a hundred yards, on a slope among rocks, where he had
been lying in wait for a fat buck, would rise the lord of this
splendid wilderness ; with shaggy mane erect ; lashing his
sides and the ground with his tail ; and his eyes glaring
with rage and wonder at the invaders of his kingdom. For
the lion, unlike other hunted animals, always shows him-
self ; stands up and looks around, whether he be among
stones or long grass ; and seems to dare his enemies to the
combat. Enjoining silence, the huntsmen would dismount,
and the Hottentots run up and take the horses, snorting
and terrified, to the rear. Three or four then with cocked
pieces, and led by Bovey the oldest sportsman, would walk
towards the lion. He would usually receive them with a
deep growl ; and hardly believing he was to be attacked in
this open manner, would make a short rush, and squat
within twenty-five yards. Then was the moment to fire.
The sportsmen, in line, poured in a volley, and generally
with fatal effect —Alexander's Colonies V Western Africa.
