IRELAND.

cession was passing over Carlisle-bridge, a hearse, with re-
markably fine sable plumage, some way or other got entangled
in the civic cortege. The greater part of Westmorland-
street was gone through ere their " Honors" could rid
themselves of this deadly innovation.
IRISII CORPORATE SYSTE3I.—It seems that the weigh-
mastership of Cork, resigned by Mr. Peter Besnard when
he was appointed to the office of Mayor, in October, last
year, had been vacant from that time until the close of last
month, when his son was placed in the office. But in the
mean time, however, as would appear by discussions upon
the subject in the Cork Reporter, the fees, amounting an-
nually to 7001., have been " appropriated !" This is a new
fact for Lord Lyndhurst.
FABRICATED OUTRAGES.—The manufacturers of out-
rages are again busily at work in Tipperary. For a short
time the traffic was abandoned, in consequence of the fre-
quent exposures of the system ; but it is once more in full
operation, and the Orange organs in Dublin are liberally
supplied with all sorts of outrages, to wLich they refer as
proofs of the disturbed state of the country. A journal
recently established, called the Tipperary Constitution, is
one of th© most active of the tribe. The Rev. John
Mackey, P.P. of Clerilmn, has published a contradiction
of a statement which appeared in that vehicle of fabrication,
respecting the serving of threatening notices on the lands
of Ballyveelish, in that parish, and the pulling down of the
houses of such of the inhabitants as refused obedience to
them.

DUBLIN, OCT. 4.
We take the following articles of intelligence from the
Irish Journals of the above date :
DIN/NEI? TO MR. S. CRAWFORD.

On Wednesday last the distinguished representative of
the borough of Dundalk was entertained by a large and
influential body of his constituents. PETER COLEMAN,
Esq., J.P., took the chair. On his right sat Mr. Crawford,
and on his left the Most Rev. Dr. Crolly, Roman Catholic
Primate of all Ireland. The vice-chair was ably filled by
James M'Alester, Esq., of Cambrickville. The great
room at Arthur's hotel was so crowded that it would be im-
possible accurately to state the number present.
After tho cloth was removed, and thanks returned, the
chairman, in happy and eloquent language, prefaced the
several toasts as follows :

" The King : may he never forget that he holds his
crown for the benefit of his subjects."
" The people, the source of all legitimate power."
" The Princess Victoria, and the rest of the Royal
family."

" Earl Mulgrave, our patriotic Viceroy."
After the immense cheering with which the name of
Lord Mulgrave was received had, in some measure, sub-
sided, Mr. Brett was loudly called on. He said, The con-
sequences, Sir, of Lord "Mulgrave's government in Ireland,
and his most deadly enemy cannot controvert the fact, arc
peace, prosperity, and security of life and property, hitherto
unknown. The feeling manifested in this room to-night, on
the announcement of his health, is only a sample of that
which would echo through Ireland, from one extreme to the
other, under similar circumstances, from all good and honest
men. I shall detain you no longer, Sir. There is a bright
prospect of justice opening to us. Justice we shall have,
and with less we shall never be satisfied.—(Cheers.)

A Conservative meeting took place at Cork last Tuesday.

FOREIGN IN TELLIGENCE.

FRANCE.

PARIS, OCT. 3.—We learn from the frontiers of Italy,
by accounts dated the 22d of Sept., that the Neapolitan
Government, fearing lest the events of the Peninsula should
occasion a re-action, had just taken measures to repress, in
case of need, any revolutionary movement.
OCT. 4.—The Ministers of Austria, Prussia, and Ba-
varia, have had successively conferences with the President
of the Council. Yesterday evening, Count Sebastiani and
Lord Granville went late to Neuilly. A communication
from the Cabinet of St. Petersburg was the cause of this
meeting at so unusual an hour.
M. de Rance has arrived at Algiers, with documents,
which prove that of the thirty thousand men of which the
army of Africa is at present composed, there are only
twenty-two thousand at the most that can be employed.
Now, after garrisoning the points which we occupy with
the necessary troops, and placing at the disposal of the Ge-
neral a sufficient force for the operations that may be en-
trusted to them, the Marshal would have two thousand
men left to march to Constantina. We have in that
place a garrison of 1,000 or 1,200 men.
It is not with so small a corps that such an expedition
can be attempted ; a reinforcement of 6,000 soldiers is
therefore indispensable. Will the Ministers grant it? This
is the question that now occurs. To desire the end, or at
least seem to do so, and not give the necessary means to
Marshal Clausel, would be confessing that they have con-
sented to the expedition to Constantina only to get the
Marshal into difficulty, by authorising him to do a thing
which it would not be possible for him to execute. But
the Marshal is not a man to suffer himself to be trifled
with. It is said that M. Rance's instructions are very
precise, and that the Marshal, who alone can consolidate
our possessions in Africa, and ensure the prospority of the
Colony, is fully resolved to resign his command, unless the
promises made to him by the late Ministry are completely
fulfilled.—Messager, Oct. 4.
PARIS, OCT. 3.—News from Madrid dated the 26th has
arrived this evening. It seems that the refusal of the Mi-
nistry to authorise the opening of the Club of Regene-
rators excited loud murmurs. It was feared they would
end in some popular movement, the result of which would
be a modification of the Cabinet. The misunderstanding
which prevails between Mendizabal and his colleagues
Calatrava. and Gil de la Quadra, would of itself suffice to
cause the dissolution of the Cabinet. though nothing else
were added to it.

" Old Ireland, and her alien sons."
Mr. TEELING, in feeling and appropriate terms, spoke to
this toast.

" William Sharman Crawford, M.P., our worthy repre-
sentative."—(Loud and continued cheering.)
Mr. CRAWFORD replied to the toast in an eloquent and
powerful speech, which occupied nearly two hours in the
delivery, and was received with reiterated and rapturous
cheering. We have materials for a full report ; but as we
should be able to insert only a portion of this admirable ad-
dress, we think it better to postpone the publication.
" The Most Rev. Dr. Crolly, and the Catholic Hierarchy
of Ireland."

Dr. CROLLY.—In your distinguished guest it is proved
that a Protestant heart and an Irish heart can be linked in
the pursuit of liberty for all. Mr. Crawford proved what
he has stated to us—that ho is a friend to civil and reli-
gious liberty.—(Cheers.) I adopt his expression ; the
man in whose bosom love for this does not exist can never
know the duty he owes to God. All we claim is common
justice. But this being so, there are some men who take
slow means to arrive at their object ; whilst others adopt
the most summary that can be devised. These two diffe-
rent modes of proceeding constitute all the difference that
exists between two of the best men in Ireland. I feel sa-
tisfied two such minds can differ only on minor points ;
their goal is the same—in the means of arrival at it the
difference. lam satisfied there is no man would rather
see a Crawford on every bench of the House of Commons
than would the great O'Connell.—(Hear, and cheers.)
The Protestant who never felt the chain may charge with
apathy the Catholic whose mode of operation is cooled
down by repeated disappointments to a deliberate and steady
pursuit of redress ; but the Catholic who has felt as I
state, will act a cool and wary part. Mr. Chairman, the
exertions of your representative have been incalculable ;
his exertions in the country whence I came were beyond all
praise. That by the influence of such men, all difference
of opinion between Protestant and Catholic may be abo-
lished, and a trace of it not left to disgrace the country, is
my most fervent prayer.—(Continued cheers.)
" O'Connell, the Liberator of his country." _ _ .

Mr. CRAWFORD spoke to this toast in the following
words :—Mr. Chairman and gentlemen, I avail myself,
with satisfaction, of an opportunity of contradicting the re-
port of the smallest hostility on my part to Mr. O'Connell.
There is no person who responds to the general opinion
more than I, that Ireland owes Mr. O'Connell a debt she
can never pay.—(Hear.) When I think of the state of
the Catholics before his powerful talents produced a redress
of their grievances, I say the Catholic would be without
feeling who would not be grateful ; and I, as a Protestant,
feel that Protestants, by the Relief Bill, are freed from a
stigma ; for those who degrade and oppress are doubly de-
graded themselves.--(Cheers.) I may differ with politi-
cians, yet I do so without any feeling of personal hostility.
In all my opposition I have been totally free from personal
pique. I could not act one way when thinking a different,
but I never said or wrote a disrespectful word of Mr. O'Con-
nell. No person knows better than Ido the obligation Ire-
land is under to Mr. O'Connell for past services.—(Hear.)
The whole nation has a right to look up to him.—(Hear,
hear, and cheers.) I shall hold out the right hand of fel-
lowship in this, but I will never be deterred from saying he
is wrong when I think him so. I am satisfied there never
will be a difference of opinion between us upon any general
political matter.—( Cheers.) lam glad of this opportunity
of expressing my sincere admiration for Mr. O'Connell's
great abilities. I consider it my duty to express my senti-
ments thus openly in this place, as I might not, between
this time and the next opening of Parliament, have an op-
portunity of addressing so large and respectable a body of my
eonstituents.—( Loud cheers.)
" Our County Representatives."
Several other gentlemen addressed the meeting, which
did not separate until half-past eleven.

A letter from Brussels, dated yesterday (Sunday) at 4
o'clock in the afternoon, says—" It is affirmed that the
Dutch have just made an invasion near Fort St. Isabella,
situated in Dutch Flanders.—Flandre Teafandaise.
It is announced at the same time that two battalions of
artillery have left Malines to proceed with all expedition
to the point that is threatened, as also the infantry which
is at Ghent.

I have no time to acquaint you with the result of the
enquiries I am going to make. I hope this affair will prove
to be a false alarm.—Journal du Commerce, Oct. 4.
The Moniteur Algerien of the 23d ult. contains the par-
ticulars of various encounters between the Hadjoutes and
the brigade of General Brossard, which led to no important
result. The Arabs, on the 16th and 17th, had penetrated
into the gardens of Blida, and, intrenched behind the walls,
commenced a fusillade against the French. The inhabi-
tants, however, joined the letter in defending their town,
and beat out the assailants, who were afterwards charged
by the cavalry, and compelled to retreat with some loss.
Prince Gregory de Dolgoroucki, who holds a commission in
the Russian army of the Caucasus, had arrived in Algiers,
for the purpose of visiting the French establishments on
that coast.

On the 14th Marshal Clausel waited on the British
Consul at his country seat, to examine some cotton, grown
on the estate of Mr. St. John, situate between Del Ibrahim
and the Boudjareah. That cotton, which proceeds from
Syria, and is remarkably fine cotton, of the American kind,
has also been grown at Haoucho-Mimouche. Some from
Malta had likewise been planted, but the Syrian species is
by far the finest.—Moniteur Algerien.
Letters from Toulon of 28th ult. announce that the tele-
graph had been moving on the preceding day from eight
o'clock in the morning until three in the afternoon. It was
reported that Admiral Hugon had been ordered to hold
himself in readiness to put to sea at the first notice. The
order was so pressing that the squadron will be obliged to
dispense with a number of articles it stands in need of, in
case the order to sail be transmitted on the 28th or 29th,
as it was expected. The correspondent of the National
writes, " that it was believed the squadron of Admiral
Hugon was proceeding to Naples. Provisions for six
months were shipped on board."—Gazette de France.

BOURSE, QUARTER TO FOUR.—The panic increases in the
market ; the affairs of Switzerland give a great deal of uneasi-
ness, particularly as it is confirmed that the French Govern-
ment has already refused the entry of passengers and mer-
chandise coming from Switzerland into France. The Three
per Cents. opened at 78f. 35c. and have been done at 77f.
90c. ; a feeble market. The Spanish Active Stock has opened
at 251, and has dropped to 25,i, notwithstanding the report
on 'Change that some good news has arrived from Madrid of
the 27th of September last.

P. S. There is a report on 'Chat!lgo that the Dutch have
made some movement in their army ; it is, however, little
credited.

SWITZERLAND.
In the second edition of the Journal du Commerce, pub-
lished last Tuesday, we find the following, copied from
I; Helvetic, a Swiss Journal, on the subject of the note
of the '27th September :
" The perusal of this document (says L' Helvetic), gives
birth to numerous reflections. Want of time and of space
compels us to limit our remarks to-day simply to the task
of putting our readers in possession of some information re-
lative to those measures which the importance of circum-
stances has dictated to the Directory.
The question, it will be seen, is no longer whether the
decision of the Diet shall be carried into execution. The
French Government has broken off all communication
with Switzerland. The official knowledge of the proceedings
of the Council would have forced the dissociation—the
agents would have dishonoured themselves in the eyes of
Europe. The Government has preferred a recourse to the
reason of might, which is not always that of honest men.
If the President of the Directory, rho received on the
20th the ratification of Fribourg, had employed it as duty
prescribed, the details would have been placed under the
eyes of the Minister, and of the King, beibre the interrup-
tion of our relations with France ; but, inconceivable as it
may seem, M. 'lscharner did not even convoke the Direc-
tory, and the decision of the Diet remained unexecuted.
Now it is too late—we must have recourse to other
measures.

M. De Belleval arrived at Berne on the ?6th. On the
27th M. De Montigni placed in his hands the note which
