GOOD QUEEN BESS

en deshabille, as she Is represented in a picture at Hampton Court.
—What comes next will certainly follow—and then will be seen
GOOD QUEEN LESS
in all her royal splendour.—lt is an Historical Fact, that Good
Queen Bess, like " Young Susan"—" had lovers so many that she
scarcely knew upon which to deale"—and it is an Historbtai Fact
that the following were a few of them.

THE REJECTED ONES:
Philip of Spain, Prince Rupert, Prince of Sweden, Duke of Anjoa,
Prince Alengon, Marquis of Winchester, the King of Sweden,
Henry of Navarre, Arehdgike Charles, Earl of Arundel,-Sir William
Pickering, Charles Blount, and the Earl of Arran. Good Queen
Bess appoints a meeting of these " wonderous proper men" at
Kenilworth, but declares, that on her way, " J bunting she will go"
—and having got on the " High Horse," the story gallops on to

and then "—enter the Earl of Leicester on his way to Kenil-
worth—He stops at Love's half-way house, the Robsar Arms—" Oh,
Susanna," or rather " Oh, Amy 1"—It can't be said, " he raakes no
bones about it "—They part, " more in sorrow, than in anger," but,
" being gone, Amy is herself again "—th A is to say, a rather jealous
young lady, who in her " deep despair," introduces her Lovely
Debby, to whom she sings the following rathetic stanza :
" Come my babby, come along with me
We'll go to far-famed Kenilworth,
our naughty dad to see "
And so they do.

IRELAND.

FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.)
DUJLIN, THURSDAY EVENING, DEC. 27.
The stereotype dictum of " No news," holds still.
Last night we had a bad pantomine in the Queen's,
and far worse in Hawkins'•street. But as first
representations of such matters are seldom
successful with critics, it is very probable both
will prove remunerative. A representation,
at Hawkins-street, of the Royal Family, very
infelicitously introduced, caused a great outcry, and
the poor quasi Prince of Wales, dressed en matelot—
not, indeed, as a British tar, scampered off at the
first dissonance of his reception. The political allu-
sions were all in exceedingly bad taste, though pretty
well " put in," and were accordingly vociferously
reprobated by the denizens of the upper spheres. The
libretto is written by Captain Leicester Smith, and
even exceeds that gentleman's capacity for writing
nonsense.

If the Solicitor-General (Mr. Hatchell) does not
stand for Windsor, in the room of Lord John Hay,
Mr. Baldwin, Q.C., chairman of Cork, and
sergeant at-law, must undergo the ordeal and
the costs of an election. Governmeut are determined
to have one legal officer from Ireland in the Imperial
Parliament ; and, heaven knows, poor Monahan, the
Attorney-General, has no chance of advancing any in-
terest in a deliberative assembly. Let the royal
pocket borough of Windsor get ready for the recep-
tion of an Irish Attorney-General's devil, or provin-
cial chairman, if the fat and factious Hatchell don't
" take on."

Saunders to-day says, Dr. Kirwan, the Presi-
dent of the Galway College, is dead. We have no
letter or paper from the west to confirm or contradict
the report; but I would not be surprised to hear of
the learned gentleman's decease, for he has been for
some time labouring under a paralytic attack.
Mr. Francis Morgan was this day re-elected law-
adviser to the Corporation of Dublin. The richest
thing in this business is, that poor Morgan had to
run to France last year, for a suspected intention of
breaking, along with Smith O'Brien and the rest,
the law, which I suppose experience will now better
enable him to expound. This is about the funniest
thing that has occurred since this pantomime season
set in.

There are three country papers in to-day. They
don't contain anything except a fair or so.
Moscvasona FAIR.—The monthly fair of this town
was held on Friday last, and was the largest held for
some time past. The day being fine there was a large
attendance of both buyers and sellers. The supply of
horses was above an average, and sold pretty freely,
particularly those for farming purposes. A few good
horses were sold. The cattle market was large also,
but no improvement was visible, except in beef, which
sold well at pretty fair prices. Sheep and pigs sold
very well, but there was no advance in price. The
linen market was very large, but sales were dull with
a downward tendency ; 3,000 webs were sold princi-
pally by the drapers or manufacturers.—Newry Tdc.
