FASHIONABLE IN TE L.LIGENCE.

The Noble Marquis, in company with the Hon. Mr. Bruce,
son of the Earl of Elgin, gave a dinner a few days ago to
upwards of 100 tenants, and several balls had been given
to the younger branches. This little island has wonder-
fully increased in prosperity within the last few years, under
the personal influence of the Duke of Hamilton (the father
of the Noble Marquis), and its annual exports in cattle, &c.
now amount to upwards of 25,0001.
The Hon. Harvey Aston, who will be of age in
May next, has purchased a magnificent yacht, and is going
with a party of young men of fashion to cruise up the Straits.
Married, on Saturday last, at Hampton Church, by
the Hon. and Rev. Richard Cavendish Boyle, Captain

Mr. R. Peake, who takes a benefit at the English
Opera-house to-morrow, is to be assisted, as he well merits,
both from his talents and from his sacrifices, by Madame
Vestris, young Mathews, Farren, Bartley, Cooper, Mea-
dows, and Miss E. Romer, besides the usual members of the
company. With The Devil's Bridge, The Loan of a Lover,
My Neighbour's Wife, and a musical pasticcio, so sup-
ported, he is sure of a full house.
Mr. Forrest and The Siege of Corinth together
have drawn above 450/. a night during the last week at
Drury-lane Theatre.
MALIBRAN.—If the almost innumerable portraits
of the deceased which we see exhibited in the shop windows
really bear resemblance to her, they at least realise Pope's
well-known couplet—
" How many pictures of one nymph we view,
. All how unlike each other, all how true !"

The British Gallery, in Pall-mall, is undergoing a
complete internal repair and decoration previous to its next
opening.

The person styled Sir Edmund Falconbridge, who
has been about to various places in this and adjoining
counties, stating himself to be the heir of the " Worrall
estates," is now in the County Lunatic Asylum, at the
charge of the parish of Braut Broughton.—Lincolnshire
Chronicle.

As Mr. R. Page, a respectable farmer of Thornaby,
was proceeding to Stockton, about 9 o'clock on Tuesday
evening, in crossing the railroad near the bridge-house, a
steam-engine and train of carriages came suddenly upon
him, by which he was knocked down, and the carriage pas-
sing over his body, killed him on the spot.—Tyne _Mercury.
On Sunday evening the Northern Central Bank, at
Sheffield, was broken into by some thieves, but they
were unable to disco%er the money, although they broke
open several drawers, &c. The manager, who resides on
the premises, was out at dinner, and left the house in the
care of the servants, who went out on their pleasure, leaving
it without any person on the premises.—Halifax Express.
FIRE AT CLOWANCE.—HELSTON, kiOV. 10,
half-past nine A. M.—This moment the engine with four
horses is gone off to Clowance, the country seat of Sir J.
St. Aubyn, Baronet, which is in flames. We have since
learnt, with regret, that of the mansion (one of the finest
buildings in the county) and its contents, the pictures only
have been saved.—Cornubian.

Two natives of Auvergne appeared on the4'9th of
this month before the Tribunal of Correctional Police. One
of them, named Raveceul, who is a water-carrier, com-
plained of the other, who is employed in the sale of fuel
and charcoal, that he had assaulted him in a base and trai-
terous manner. Brousse, the accused, replied that he had
merely struck the horse of the complainant on the nose,
while the latter arrived at the very extraordinary conclusion
that a blow inflicted on the nose of a man's horse, is ex-
actly equivalent to " planting a hit " on the owner's stomach.
Several witnesses were examined, and Brousse endeavoured
to defend himself in a speech full of his native patois, which
as the reporter gravely affirmed, it would have required
"superhuman" powers to comprehend. Poor Brousse was
fined 16 francs.

On Friday a pauper, who had escaped from the
Shrewsbury Union workhouse two months since, clad in a
new suit of clothes, presented himself to the Hereford Ves-
try, almost naked, and demanded some clothes. He was
interrogated as to what he had done with those he had
when he left the workhouse, of which he would give no ac-
count. A summons was obtained against him ; and when
he appeared before the Magistrates he was dressed in the
Union clothes, almost new. In the course of his examina-

_ ...
tion he confessed that he sought the clothes for the purpose
of sale, and that he had lived by begging ; he was com-
mitted to gaol for twenty-eight days, and to be fed on bread
and water only.—Hereford Journal.
On Saturday the paviours employed in Gutter-lane,
Cheapside, found several Roman gold coins, a few feet from
the surface of the earth. The workmen, ignorant of their
value, sold three of them for .ss. ; but two, evidently of the

landlord of King William, Noble-street.

A plan of great public utility, and which promises
to be ultimately beneficial to the trust estates belonging to
the London-bridge, is now under the consideration of the
Bridge-house Committee. An estate of more than five
acres, near the Bridge, and extending from the banks of the
river to Tooley-street, belongs to the Trust, and a consi-
derable portion of it will, in a few years, be out of lease.
Mr. Cubitt, who has been consulted by the Committee as
to the best appropriation oT the estate, has submitted a plan
for a dock and warehouses extending up to Tooley-street,
which would assist in relieving the trade of the river, the
crowded state of which was pointedly referred to by the late
Lord Mayor, and retain and extend some valuable branches
of trade, by giving a great increase of wharfage and ware-
house room in the immediate vicinity of the city, and of its
most valuable Trust property.
At a late hour on Thursday evening, as the servant-
maid of Mr. John Sembleton, of Hoxton, was bringing up
the supper things, she was much alarmed by hearing a heavy
fall in the back-parlour, and on proceeding thither was
shocked at beholding the body of her master lying on the
floor, deluged with blood—his throat cut. A decline of
business, and the extravagance of a younger son, are sup-
posed to have prompted him to the rash deed ; but until
this event no symptoms of insanity or despondency had pre-
sented themselves,
SPANISH TASTES.—Altogether I did not find the
Spanish so intractable in matters of eating and drinking as
might be expected from their prejudice against every thing
foreign. No muleteer on the road but would run after
Cheshire cheese, or an English beefsteak, as delicacies of
the first class ; and at Bilboa a grave Spanish captain of
grenadiers got fuddled with bottled porter, which he had
never tasted before, but liked it so much after the first glass
that he swallowed a second, third, and fourth, till at length
he declared his inability to find his way home, and called

upon us to execute that duty for him. From what I have

seen of Spanish temperance, I should say, that it is as much
the result of poverty as of natural inclination, and am some-
what disposed to give credit to the assertion of Lithgow,
an old traveller, who wrote on Spain somewhere about the
commencement of the 17th century, and who assures us
that " the Spaniard is of a spare diet, and temperate, if at
his own cost he spend, but if given gratis, he bath the longest
tusks that ever played at table."—Twelve Months in the
British Legion.
A great number of labourers, mechanics, and agri-
culturalists, and others, who emigrated from England to
America last year, have lately returned, in the New York
packet ships, in a most destitute condition, and give a me-
lancholy account of the condition of the United States and

the state of things there, which they represent to be much
worse than in England. There were nearly 150 return
emigrants brought home in the Quebcc, a new and splendid
ship, which arrived in the St. Catherine's Dock from New
York, for the first time on Monday, a majority of whom
were in the most abject state of distress. Bad as was their
condition, the wanderers said that the state of thousands of
their fellow-countrymen and countrywomen, whom they had
left behind in New York and other towns in America, was
ten times worse ; that disease had made sad ravages among
great numbers; and that hundreds would be glad to throw
themselves into the first vessel bound for England, and trust
to the charity of their fellow-passengers for food if they
only had the means of paying the passage-money. The
winter had already set in with unusual severity at New
York when they left, and those who were in employment
could obtain no money payments for their labour, while the
scarcity of corn had been very sensibly felt.
At the Sheriff's Court, Bury St. Edmund's, on
Thursday, the 10th inst., the cause of " Bond v. Hear-
sum," for an assault on the plaintiff, was tried. The facts
of the case are as follow :—During Mr. O'Connell's visit
to Ipswich, the plaintiff was standing on the steps of the
Town Hall. In the course of Mr. O'Connell's address he
mentioned the name of Mr. Bond as having given some
offence to him by his political conduct, when the defendant
headed a mob of twenty or thirty persons, who rushed upon
him and beat him severely, Hearsum himself striking him
violently several times ; and the people drove Mr. Bond by
their blows into the Golden Lion, where he found protec-
tion from further ill usage. Mr. Bond brought an action
for damages against Hearsum, who pleaded guilty, this trial
being for the assessment of damages ; the returned a ver-
dict of 40s. damages.—lpswich Journal.

THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1.8

forty.—( Hear.) Now here, am I not supported by the
authority of Mr. Doubleday in asserting that if the Refor-
mers of Newcastle had not been indifferent to Ireland, they
would have returned the friend of her cause. There could
not be a more desirable candidate, or a more excellent re-
presentative than Sir Wm. Molesworth.—(Hear.) He
was an honour to the British nation. His is one of those
master-minds which has never been wanting in the dreariest
and most gloomy periods of British history, to preserve
her distinction and adorn her fame.—(Cheers.) His speech
on the Orange lodges was one of the best I ever heard.
I hope he will be returned for Newcastle.—(Cheers.) But
why have I spoken of this matter ? I have spoken of it
to show that we Irish Radicals manage these matters
better.—(Hear.) We support a good Whig, though he is
not a Radical.—(Hear.) I may allude to my own conduct
on the question of the ballot. Anxious as I was, and as I
still
.am, for that measure, I voted in favour of it, and
against the Administration.—(Hear.). I will vote so again,
and I will vote so on every question which involves the
principles of radicalism.—( hear.) I will always take
what I can get, and then struggle for the rest.----(Cheers.)
I come next to the question of indifference on the part of
England—( Hear.) It is said there is not sufficient evidence
of indifference. Look first at the press. There is a part
of it half Whig and half Tory, which is decidedly indif-
ferent to Ireland—(Hear)—and even the most talented
portion of it, by its continual attacks upon the present ad-
ministration, leaves us to draw no other inference than that
it is indifferent to the cause of Ireland.—(Hear.) No man
who is carping at the present Administration is anxious for
Ireland. I say to Englishmen you are right as English-
men to express your dissatisfaction with the present Mi-
nistry ; but you are wrong in doing so as regards Ireland.
They give that country a ground for hope wlkich it has
Seldom been her lot to enjoy.—(Hear.) . If the existing
ministry are but left in power for another twelvemonths, let
the Irish Administration continue to do 'equal justice—let
them continue to have the door of office open only to merit
—let them go on controuling all the operations of govern-
ment with spotless justice and impartiality ; let them do
this for one, twelvemonths, and what will become of the To-
ries? Why we would beat them everywhere, and there is
not a corner of the world in which their defeat will not be
sounded.—(Cheers.) Again, there is another port of the
English press whiCh cants (after all it is only cant) about
the anxiety of Englishmen. for Ireland. Did not those
Englishmen return a majority to Parliament against us ?
( Hear.) Shall I not say they are indifferent, or rather
shall I not say they are hostile to us, when these re-
presentatives are marshalled against the concession of
justice to Ireland?—(Cheers.) Yes, the majority of the
English representatives are against us ; the Scotch and
Irish Members make the fight in our behalf a • cheer-
ing one.—(Hear, hear.) Yesterday I felt it my duty to
dwell upon the state of parties and of feeling in Ireland
and as it is my ,intention to proceed, step by step, in the
agitation which I have marked out for my pursuit—(Cheers),
—I have to-day taken a view of the parties and of the feel-
ing in England.—(Cheers.) Do I allude to all these things
to excite fear in the minds of Irishmen ? Do I allude to
them for the purpose of inspiring Irishmen with any false
hope ? No! But I mention them that we may have a ra-
tional estimate of our condition and our prospects.—( Hear,
hear.) This is an association in which I am proud to
stand. We are here without distinction—all sectarian
differences have vanished from amongst us.—(Hear, hear.)
We have in the General Association of Ireland, at this
moment, five times the number of Protestants that we had
in the Catholic Association at the end of even eight or ten
years.—(Cheers.) Again, look at the agitators of the pre-
sent day. Who are they ? Formerly they were almost exclu-
sively Catholic—now they are almost entirely Protestant.
—(Cheers.) Why have we so long been slaves? Weak-
ened by our dissentions, we have been for six centuries an
easy prey to the spoiler—(Hear,)—but now, irresistible in
our union, and in the power produced by our being constitu-
tionally bound up with each other, we are too powerful for
thraldom. 'What a cry has been raised because Lord
Mulgrave has offered a puisne judgeship to O'Loghlen.—
(Hear.) The cry has been raised because O'Loghlen is a
Catholic.--(Hear.) Let the bigots travel for a lesson
across the Atlantic.—(Hear, hear.) Who is the Chief
Justice of the highest court in the United States ? I al-
lude to this, because, perhaps, I am the only man here who
knows who and what he is. His name is Todd. He goes
to mass on Sunday, and presides, during the rest of the
week, in court, with the approbation, respect, and con-
fidence of his fellow-citizens.—(Cheers.) He is the Chief
Justice of the High Court of Error, which is the highest
court in Washington.—(Hear.) No objection was made
with regard to his religion—no question was ever asked
about it.—(Hear.) I seek no ascendancy—l heartily
abhor it.—(Loud cheers.) If an attempt to establish a
Catholic ascendancy were made, there is not a Pro-
testant in existence who would more strenuously battle
against it than I would myself.—(Loud cheers.) All
ascendancy is bad, and destructive of true religion.—(Cheers.)
Ere I conclude, I again call upon all Ireland to rouse.—
(Hear.) We must have a multiplication of petitions.—
(Hear.) Every province—every county, barony, parish,
and village—must send forth its energetic call upon the
Legislature.—(Cheers.) Every loyal man must be asso-
ciated for the preservation of peace and good order. I
again repeat it—the petitions must 1.4 multiplied. We must
also have persons in every parish accountable for the perpe-
tration of illegal acts of vielence.—(Cheers.) There is an
abundance of work to be performed : all Ireland must be
roused ; we must in every district have "normal schools of
peaceful agitation."—(Laughter.) The wise Lords would
not give us corporations, lest we should turn them into agi-
tation clubs. Oh ! how they have prevented agitation
!
(Laughter.) That majority in our favour will increase the
more in proportion as we help ourselves. The French have
a proverb, " Aide toi et Dieu t'aidera"—help yourselves,
and God will help you,—(Cheers.) We will help ourselves.
—(Cheers.) We will also help our friends—(Cheers)—and
the bitter scorn of Ireland, roused into action, shall fling
back with contempt the allegation, that we are unfit for
freedom, into the teeth of the Tory slanderers who pronounced
it. The Liberator sat down amidst the enthusiastic
cheers which always accompany and follow his effusions.
The Hon. and Learned Gentleman then moved the addi-
tion of Mr. Sharman Crawford to the Committee. He
(Mr. O'Connell) must state most explicitly that he had no
ill-will or resentment towards the Hon. Member for Dun-
dalk. The case was simply this—Mr. Sharman Crawford
had written five letters against him (Mr. O'Connell) ; when
the fifth letter appeared, he (Mr. O'Connell) replied, and
Mr. Sharman Crawford published his rejoinder ; Lord Clon-
curry then interfered, and I was silent. I left Mr. S.
Crawford the last, although I think I had an answer.—
(Laughter.) I have always acted upon the principle of
the Grecian leader who cried " Strike, but hear me ;" and
in this case I will willingly receive the blow, and not resent
it, rather than cause dissension amongst the friends of Ire-
land.—(Cheers.)
• Mr. O'MEARA was then moved to the Chair, and the
thanks of the meeting having been voted to Mr. Purcell
for his conduct in the Chair, the assembly separated.

LAvv APPOINTMENTS.—The statements made relative
to the Law Appointments in the Mail last evening are alto-
gether destitute of foundation. It is not true that any
force has been used towards Mr. O'Loghlen, with a view
to induce him to accept a seat on the Bench. Perhaps, of
all men at the Bar, Mr. O'Loghlen was in a position to be
less influenced by suggestions of the kind. In full and
profitable practice, he might, if he supposed any slight in-
tended, have fallen at once back upon his profession, and,
assuredly, would have done so. But, so far from being
coerced, although he might have justly looked up, From his
position as Attorney-General, his talents as a Barrister, and
his eminent success in Parliament, to the highest dignity of
his profession, he has consented, on' grounds the most pure,
unselfish, and patriotic, to accept the vacant office. It is
now needless to inquire into the apparent delay which oc-
curred as to the appointment. Suffice it to say, that Mr.
O'Loghlen has been this day sworn in a Baron of the Ex-
chequer, and that he will take his seat on Tuesday.—Dublin
Evening Post of Saturday.
COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Nov. 12.—1 n consequence of
the continued illness of the Chief Baron, an important
application respecting writs of rebellion has been postponed.
Mr. O'Connell, it is understood, is to support the applica-
tion.—lbid.

AECOUNTANI'-GENERAL.—The Dublin Evening Post
of this evening states that Mr. Fitzsimon has ultimately de-
clined accepting the office of Accountant-General, as " he
felt it a duty to his constituents and to the Government to
remain as the representative of the county at any sacrifice
to his own interest."
THE BANK;,.The Dublin Evening Post of Saturday
last supplies the following information relative to the run
on the Banks:---._" The agricultural Bank has borne the
pressure with unflinching strength. We learn, indeed, that
the Galway branch of this establishment has suspended its
payments for. a day or two--a circumstance at which we are
not surprised—but, we are thoroughly convinced, that it
will re-commence on Monday. In Cork there has been
also a run on one of the branches, but it has borne the
pressure. It should be added, to the credit of the Bank
of Ireland, that it has acted in this crisis with the utmost
liberality, and, abandoning all notions of commercial ri-
valry, that it has exerted itself to avert the calamity with
which all the interests of the country have been menaced.
We should add, that vast quantities of bullion have beFn
imported during the present week into Dublin, and dis-
patched with great alacrity to various places in the country.
With regard to the Northern Banks, there has been some
demand for their notes, made payable in two respectable
houses in this city—at Watson's, and at the banking-house
of Boyle, Low, Pim, and Company. It is unnecessary to
say that the demands were promptly met. There can,
we think, be no reasonable doubt entertained that Ireland
will, be enabled to withstand the present pressure."
D trzlati Sourry.-..The Dublin Society; have agreed

to the Peport of Reue.lion Smith and toeir Select Com-
mittee—nay, unanimously agreed. That is to say, they
have come to a virtual resolution to starve the Society, and
to break it up ; for, most assuredly, nut a sixpence of the
public money will they be allowed to touch. They have
resolved that they are an independent, co-ordinate estate
of the realm ; that they will, indeed, condescend to re-
ceive the money of the people, but they would see the
Whig Government to Jericho, rather tha❑ receive a sug-
gestion from them. But, then, we repeat it, they will not
get the monish. They have resolved to continue the news-
papers—the Dublin Society being a political Club—but,
then, they must pay out of their own breeches pockets for
the amusement. They have resolved to make his Excel-
lency, the Lord Lieutenant, their President. Have they
asked his consent ? They have made seven Vice-Presi-
dents—all Etter, back-bone Orangemen. We think this
was clever. It shows that they are able to stand upon
their own bottom. They threw out the Earl of Meath,
as Vice-President, and adopted the Sorry Sergeant. This
is good. Mr. Henry Kemmis, brother of the Crown Soli-
citor—a fellow of the right sort—succeeds the late Mr.
Boyd. Excellent! We do not know that we have had, for
a long time, such an agreeable piece of intelligence to com-
municate to our amiabl public.—Dublin Evening Post.
There is another famous split between this well-knitted—
this uncompromising—this 'potent party. Boyton has de-
dared for the Board of Education—with an if—and Murty
O'Mulligan and the Mai/ against Boyton and the Back-
sliders, with a voice loud as a puddle in a storm. Oh ! it
is brave work.—Dublin Evening Post.
DUNGARVAN POLITICS.—The Waterford mail speaks of
a meeting held in Dungarvan, hostile to the nomination of
the Hon. Mr. Phipps, and throws out a feeler in favour of
Sir Richard Keane. We know not whether this has been
done with the knowledge or approval of the Hon. Baronet,
and shall, therefore, make no comment on the hint of our
Contemporary. This much we may add, that arrangements
are in active progress for maintaining the independence of
the borough, and giving to the electors a candidate in every
respect worthy of their choice. They have sufficient expe-
rience in elections to render any exhortation unnecessary as
to the expediency of keeping their votes disengaged.—
Waterford Chronicle.

COLLECTION OF TITHES.--The public journals still teem
with facts connected with the attempted collection,of,an
impost, which the determined resistance of the people
throughout the country have now virtually extinguished.
&An° —Winter has commenced with extreme rigour in
several parts of the kingdom and on the Continent. In
this neighbourhood there has been a long continuance of
rain, heavy sleet, hail, and frost, with a chilling harshness
seldom equalled at this period of the year. The conse-
quence is that fuel has been raised to a very high price,
turf being nearly doubled in charge ; this is also the case
with potatoes, oatmeal, and almost every other essential
article of human sustenance. In such an extremity, with
every prospect of the necessaries of life being enhanced,
what can be expected from the hapless condition of a largo
portion of the population but general contagion and appal-
ling privations—the poor of this vicinity are in dire distress
at the present moment ; and the mendicity establishment
is at the lowest ebb, without funds, and no provision in store
for the maintenance of its inmates at so critical a juncture.
DONEGAL.—The crops this season have suffered severely
from the severity of the weather. In many parts of this
county whole fields of oats are yet uncut and quite green ;
the potatoes are in many places undug, and much of them
not half ripe. On Thursday morning last the hills in many
places were covered with snow—showers of hail and sleet
fell at intervals throughout the day.

PARIS, Nov. 12.—News from Bilboa. Bayonne, Nov.B.
—Extract from the Phare :—" The communications by
sea between Bilboa and Bayonne, which were interrupted
only by the bad weather, have been completely restored
since the sea has become less rough. We learn by seve-
ral letters received from Bilboa on the 6th, in the evening,
that the Carlists have greatly deceived us in the reports
which they sent to this place respecting their operations
before that town. It is certain that they have completely
failed, and they have not made themselves masters of any
position or attack on Mollena on the night of the 26th.
Their best soldiers, deserters from the Algerine. Legion,
and the Spanish troops, supported by five battalions under
the ex-Infante Don Sebastian, were vigorously repulsed by
two companies only of the National Guards. On the 28th
they raised the siege, and on the 3d of this month the na-
vigation of the Nerviou met with no obstacle ; 1,500 men
had arrived from Santander to reinforce the gat rison. We
think we shall be able to give in our next Number some de-
tails of the new siege of Bilboa, in which the besieged lost
above 200 men. The damage done by the bombardment
is considerable.—La Paix, Nov. 12.
