THE COLLISION OF THE APOLLO

AND THE MONARCH.

Yesterday the Trinity Company caused a conspicuous
green buoy to be sunk to mark the spot where the Apolb
lies. It is a very little distance beyond the village o
Grays, but nearest to the Kent shore by about one-thin
the river's breadth. A variety of miscellaneous article•
have come afloat or been washed on the shore at Grays,
which, so many as have fallen into good good hands, ar'
safely warehoused there, and will be forwarded to the offer,
of the Commercial Steam Company for distribution among
the right owners.
The contract for rais:ng the vessel has been taken in
Messrs Thackray and Price, of Ilatw:ch, a firm that ha
been fortunate in raising several large sunken vessels undo
difficult circumstances. As the mechanical apparatus has
to be conveyed from I larwich, it is expected that it will be
Friday before the work can be commenced. "It is hoped to
be able to raise her within a week, notwithstanding that the
-corks can only be carried on at particular times of tide.
The value of the vessel and fittings and machinery is said to
be 4,0001. She is not insured.

Till the bodies are rased and a judicial enquiry is en-
tered upon, it does not appear that any further informa-
tion can be obtained. The causes of the fearful calamity
must then become a subject of solemn and important en-
quiry, when it is to be hord such an intelligent Jury will
be impannelled as secure to the public a full, rigid,
and impartial investigation.

THE ROYAL STUD.

We are informed on good authority that the announced sale
of this national establishment has created a powerful sensation
in Paris. It is well known that the English breed of horses
is one of the kw things that the prejudices of the French rea-
dily admit that we excel in, and, therefore, the unexpected
circumstance of the dissolution of this justly celebrated appen-
dage to British Royalty has caused considerable astonishment
amongst the ♦ery numerous class of persons who now take an
interest in France in the improvement of the breed of horses,
and at a time, too, when alnilst a royal bounty is held out in
that country for'the encouragement of this important object.
A meeting of the French Jockey Club (Societie des
Jockois), we are informed, was held last week, at which
the President, the Prince de la Moskowa, took the chair;
LOrd Henry Seymour, Count de Cambis, M. Rondeau
de Courcy, and numerous other members were present ; when
it was filially and unanimously resolved that experienced agents
should attend the sale, if it were really to take place, of which
it appeared those present were almost incredulous.
At this period of the year there are always in this country
American dealers and speculators in horses, who attend the
Doncaster and Newmarket meetings to select thorough-bred
horses and brood mares fur exportation to the United Sit'es.
These too will, no doubt, enter into competition with our
Continental neighbours, and very rem of the stud, we are toll,
are likely to remain here if put up to public sale.
The expenses of maintaining the establishment at Hampton
Court, it is stated, cannot be accurately ascertained ; but we
are assured, after the produce of sales is deducted, that the
deficiency is inconsiderable compared with the advantage to
the country generally.

AQUATICS.
Wes WAGER AT 11UNGERPOILD —The oars wager for r
purse of sovereigns, given by the inhabitants of Ilunrrerford
Market, to which the proprietor of the Swan subscribed Mt,
came off yesterday. It was with eight pairs, in three heats
The men came in thus for the gr.ind heat—
II: my Maynard and Thomas Cook White.
Charles 11.11 and. William Jones Orange.
Thomas Worthy and George Bancroft
Alexander Tough and Juhn Becket
We regret to say that the wager was every thing but fairly
contested, and the conduct of one of the own, thrown out of
the second heat, was shameful. A cutter was steered right
athwart purple and yellow, which were the leading boats.

DUBLIN, SEPT. 4.
WATERFORD PUBLIC DINNER.
F SPEECH or Ma. SHIM.. M.P.—ln allusion to the bril-
liant displays of genuine eloquence bmanating on this. occa-
sion from the flnn. henry Villiers Stuart, Messrs. Slicil,
M.P., Wyse, M.P., and other patriotic and distinguished
characters, the Freeman, not. without abundant reason, says
that it refers with pride to the proceedings that took place
on Wednesday at Waterford, adding that " the feeling ex-
hibited will be productive of great advantage to the coun-
try. Englishmen will perceive arrayed as we have by our
side talent so perspicuous, determination so united and
vigorous, and represented by gentlemen occupying high and
important positions, both as regards wealth and popular in-
fluence, that the struggle for our just demands assumes now
A more equal footing, and that our prospects are gradually,
perhaps, but certainly progressing." •
We last week were enabled to lay before our readers an
outline of the important and interesting proceedings that
took place at. this public entertainment, and are to-day pre-
cluded alone by an extraordinary press of matter from
transferring to our columns, entire, the admirable speeches
of Messrs. Stuart, Sheil, and the other gentlemen.
Limited as is our space this afternoon, we are constrained
to content ourselves with the gratification of giving only a
sketch of the Address delivered by the eloquent and Hon.
\lember for Tipperary. The Dublin Evening Post justly
pronounces it one of the most useful and practical speeches
ever delivered by Mr. Shell. Upon his health being drunk,
be rose and said—" I thank you in the name of the great
tsmstituency which I have the honour to represent. You
have justly noticed the election which has recently termi-
nated in the county of Tipperary ; for it was attended with
circumstances peculiarly deserving_ the public attention. A
.failtre the most ignominious, and attended with incidents
beyond everything else that has occurred in Ireland,
illustrate the feelings and throw light upon the objects of
the Tory faction.—(Loud cheering.) In. the House of
Commons the Tory party effect a tone of moderation.
Mark - the selection of their candidates! They selected
the Grand Master of the Orangemen of Tipperary, who
had distinguished himself by his desecration of the ancient
.ihbey of Kilcooly,- amidst those ruins an Orange lodge
was held under his auspices, and who for this affront to the
feelings of his fellow-citizens, for having presided at those
offensive-festivities held over the graves of the ecclesiastics
who lie buried amidst these venerable ruins received
the special thanks of the Orange Society, in -Dublin, of
which a record may be found in the appendix pub-
lished by the Committee of' the House of Commons.
Such was the man whom the Tories of Tipperary se,
lected as their Representative ; and displayed, in doing so
how a Tory-Government would be regulated if the Tories
were unleinpilv restpred to power. Tile success-of this bold,
and I may call it audacious, attempt, upon their part, to
set up a notorious Orangeman—a man who avowed him-
self on the hustings to be an Orangeman—has been fol-
lowed by the consequences which it ought_ to have pro-
duced. Never was there a more pitable exhibition of
eoliticaLimpotence than that which was made by the
Tories in the county of Tipperary.—(Cheers.) Notwith-
standing the most wasteful expenditure of money, and
although no expedient was left unturned to bring in, no
matter from what distance, every Tory to the poll, they
were unable to muster five hundred men.—(Loud cheers.)
Let this be proclaimed through England, in order that the
people of England may be enabled to appreciate the Tory
party according to their just value, and may be assured,
of their total and irretrievable overthrow.—( Cheers.) The
county of Tipperary is at least seventy Irish miles in
length. It is distinguished by its fertility, and is, perhaps,
the finest portion of this magnificent island. Its population
exceeds four hundred thousand, and yet, in that county,
important in so many regards, the Tories, after polling for
five days, could not produce five hundred men to vote upon
their side.(Cheers.) We have not only beaten them,
but trodden and stamped upon them.—(Continued cheers.)
We have not only struck them to the earth, but rolled them
in the dust. They are not only fallen, but they are for
ever prostrate. We have returned—(and what a fact is
:hat?)—we have returned nine additional Members in
the late desperate struggle made by the Tories to return
their Parliamentary power .in Ireland.—( Loud cheers.)
The Tories boast of having obtained an addition to their
strength in England. Be it so ! But our increase of
strength, if regard be had to proportions, is far greater
than theirs, and is, besides, in the eyes of a statesman, in-
dicative of far more important consequences. The Irish elec-
tions are indicative of an augmented energy, and of a
:fore complete organization, and above all dauntless spirit
of unalterable resolve on the part of those confederated
millions who demand equality and are certain to obtain it.
—(Loud cheers.) Mark the rise of the popular power in
Ireland. Observe the degrees with which it has developed
itself.- The very contrast which has taken place between
England and Ireland tends to confirm the view which I take
of this great event ; for it shows that in the country where
few—comparatively—few grievances exist, the national
mind naturally relapses into repose. In that country, on
the other hand, where great wrongs are perpetrated, and
unnatural institutions are maintained, and where an exaspe-
rating inequality is still permitted to exist, and odious and
insulting distinctions are made—in that country (and In-
land is that country)--(Cheers)—the popular emotions
still boil and effervesce, and from legislative injustice a na-
tional excitement is sure to be derived.—(Loud cheers.) It
has been said that Ministers have a majority exclusively
Irish. I hope that some man of note in the House of
Commons upon the Tory aide will make this suggestion ;
for if he does, in his teeth, the Act of Union shall be flung.
—(Cheers.) A majority exclusiVelY Irish! I like tl:a
taunt ; I give that affronting intimation welcome ; be-
cause it justifies me in referring to what, otherwise, I
should be disposed to pass without a corarneut.. By whom
was the Reform Bill carried ?--( Hear, hear, and loud
cheering.) The present Lord Stanley declared at a public
• dinner given to Lord John Russell, that to the Irish
Members the people of England were indebted for that
great achievement The distinction between English,
Irish, and Scotch Members, may be made by the literary
mercenaries whom Toryism has enlisted under her gilded
banners. But I will venture to say that no man of the
slightest consideration of the House of Common, will press
a topic fraught with consequences most perilous to the unity
of the British Empire.—(Cheers.) It is enough that Mi-
nisters should have a majority, and they may treat any
analysis of its composition with utter disregard. For my
part I feel convinced that Lord Melbourne's Government
is stronger in the present than in the late House of Com-
mons. The Tory papers dealing in a misrepresentation,
which is not even plausible, have stated me to have said
that the Queen had taken to the writing ofeleetion squibs. I
might leave it to those who are acquainted with my manner
of speaking to decide whether, whatever mai be my faults, I
am in'the habit of employing such phraseology as that, in this
instance, attributed to me. But English credulity is readily
practised upon when either coarseness or absurdity are attri-
buted to us. And I therefore think it right to state that in
commenting upon Lord John Russell's letter—l appealed
to it as an announcement of the kindly feelings which her
Majesty entertains in regard to Ireland, and of her approval
of the policy by which the country has been governed
under Lord Mulgrave's administration.—(Hear.) The
Tories, I said, in order to do away the effect of that letter,
have represented it as a Ministerial expedient resorted to at
a partieular juncture, and had dared to insinuate that the
Queen of England had descended to the writing of election
;quits. Did not the chief organs of Toryism assail that
letter as the mere expedient of the faction ? And was it
not from them that the contumelious insinuation came which
they have now the effrontery to attribute to the individual
hY whom you are now addressed ?—( Hear.) Sir, I con-
sider the letter to whiil I refer as a document for which
Ireland ought to feel a lasting gratitude to her Sovereign.
—(Cheers.) Although it exceeds in value any document
of a similar kind, yet it is not without example. 1 perceive
that you have suspended on the wall opposite to me the
Armorial bearings of the Earl of Mulgrave. And on that
escutcheon I see inscribed " VirtuteQuier." These words
ire fraught with a noble meanin,g—(Clieers)—and they
furnish the best commentary upon that system, of which
tranquillity in Ireland has been the precious fruit. Yes!
it is by virtue—justice—it is by that firmness and that
moral courage, of which the Latin word is so finely signi-
ficant—that tranquillity—l mean a strong reliance on the
part of the governid in the Governor—by tranquillity, I
mean an abandonment of projects and of demands of which
the denial of justice has been productive—by tranquil-
lity I mean the cessation of those political assemblages
in which, for the wrongs of Ireland, a simple, and. in
he Judgment of England, a formidable specific was re-
:na:ameuded—( Hear, hear, dial 1414 ebeess)--.by tran
mega that sentiment of cordial attachment
