DUBLIN, DEC. 26.

Yesterday, our VICEROY attended Divine Service at the
Cathedral of Christ Church, which attracted the most elegant
and numerous congregation we have ever seen assembled upon
any former occasion. The line of road ifom the Park to the
Cathedral, through which the carriages passed, was crowded on
either side, and the cheers and acclamations from the persons
assembled, were truly gratifying. We are happy to say, that
his Excellency appeared in the full enjoyment of. excellent
health. He was attended in the State Pew by the Gentleman
Usher on his right, and on his left appeared his Private
Secretary. His Excellency was dressed in a beautiful blue and
gold uniform, and decorated with several of his Orders.
The Lord Lieutenant gave a sumptuous entertainment in the
evening to all the Officers of his household.
THE LATE OUTRAGE.-It is said, that informations have
at length been taken against several other perso!.s, who were
engaged in this nefarious transaction, and that warrants have
been issued for their apprehension.

HousEnoLDEßs.—The Loan CHIEF JUSTICE
lately gave the following as the unanimous opinion of the Court
of King's Bench :—" That a person having a counting-house
in a borough, town, or city, for transacting business, and to
which he was in the habit of resorting daily, is a householder of
that borough, town, or city ; and that a person having a ware-
house, or any house in which he carried on business, or ware-
housed goods, and in which his servant slept, is a householder
of the town, city, or county, in which such warehouse
is situated, and that a person having a house in his occupation,
for which he paid the poor rates, &c. was a householder ; al-
though the residence of their families might not be situated
within such a city, or borough. His Lordship remarked, that
if these were not the true interpretations of the word house-
holder, he must pronounce half of the most valuable persons
carrying on business in the city of London not householders."

The Court of Cessation at Paris has dis-
missed the complaint of MM. LAFITTE, CON-
STANT, KERATRY, and General Foy, against
M. MANGIN, Procureur-General at the Royal
Court of Poitiers, on the follow ing grounds—
viz. that the act of accusation contained nothing
which could authorize a complaint of calumny ;
that if the passages complained of in the plead-
ing of the sth of September are not sufficiently
guarded, still they have no character of inter-
; Lion, without which there can be no calumny ;
that the passages 'relative to those who " secret
the treasures of the Usurper to bribe insurruc-
tions," in which M. LAFITTE appears to be
aimed at, is general, and cannot be applied to
him, since, instead of concealing the funds in-
trusted to him, he had declared them, and placed

them at the disposal of the law.
The inhabitants of the Parish of Walcot, in
Somersetshire, met on Thursday, and agreed to a
Petition to be presented to the House of Com-

moos against the new Marriage Act. -
GEORGE BAKER, Esq. is the successful fa-
vourite for the Borough of Wilton ; that gentle-
man having been many years the intimate friend
of Lord PEMBROKE..

The coachmen and guards who arrived in town
yesterday morning, state that Friday night, in
point of severity of frost, was greater than has
been experienced for many years.
- We understand that the glove trade was never

In so flourishing a state in York as it is at prese

The demand is so great, that the gloyers cannot
meet with hands sufficient to execute their orders.
—(Doncaster Gazette.)
ISLE OF MAN.-There is a proverbial expres-
sio❑ which forcibly indicates the object constantly
occupying the minds of the inhabitants. The
two Dee►nsters, or Judges, when, appointed to
the chair of judgment, declare that they will
render justice between man and man' as equally
as the herring bone lies between the two sides :'
an image which could not have occurred to
any people unaccustomed to the herring fishery.
—There is a Cornish proverb, Those who
will not be ruled by the rudder must be ruled by
the rock,—the strands of
,Cornwall, so often co-
vered with wrecks, could not fail to impress on
the imaginations of its inhabitants the two ob-
jects whence they drew this salutary proverb
against obstinate wrongheads.—(D'lsrucli.)
WEALTH.—It was the observation of a physi-
cian, who was remarkable for his practice in cases of insanity,
that the South Sea year had supplied him with an amazing in-
crease of patients, but that among them all, there was not one
whose delirium was brought on by the losses of his money•—
They were all to be numbered among the fortunate stock-
sellers.

FIRE.—On Thursday evening, about seven
o'clock, a fire broke out in the Mansion of Jaynes Slater, Esq.
of Newick-place, Sussex ; but it was happily extinguished be-
fore it had effected any material injury, except to two or three
rooms. _ _ _

A fire was discovered at mid-day on Monday,
at Brynkinalt, the beautiful seat of Lord Viscount Dungannon,
near Oswestry,occasioned by the cook making use of an old oven,
for the purpose of baking some large Christmas pies, &c. The
fire communicated with some timber in the building, and thence
to the pantry and rooms adjoining ; and had it not been for the
exertions of the Hon. C. Trevor's groom, who perceived the fire
as he was going to water his horses, the whole mansion would
robably have been destroyed. The groom, however, with the
assistance of some of the rest of the family, succeeded in extin-
guishing the flames ; the engine continued playing upon the
house for some hours. We are happy to add, that the injury
sustained is not extensive.—(Arezesbury Chronicle.)
Ail old resurrection man, it is said, had the
singular good luck to pounce upon the field of
Waterloo, like another vulture, and to bring
away as many teeth as sold to the dentists for
20,0001.
Bo NV-S TRE E T.—On Saturday the following case was brought
forward, which Sir R. BinsriE and Mr. M nisitutr, declared
to be of great importance to parishes and parish-officers :
The mother of an illegitimate child, born in St. Clement Danes,
applied for parochial relief for her infant, as the parish-officers
took 301. from the father of the child for its support. The
parish officers, attended by their solicitor, admitted having re-
ceived 30/. from the father, but still refused to advance any
more money to the mother, as they were willing to take the
child (a female) into their establishment at Hendon, where
they had accommodation for 100 female children, of all ages
above two years. The mother of the infant still wished to
have charge of it, as it was only two years and a half old. Sir
R. BIRNIE said, that he never saw a cleaner nursery for infants
than that at llendon ; but he and Mr. MiNsitu Li, declared the
conduct of the parish officers to have been quite illegal in taking a
round sum for an illegitimate child. The solicitor for the parish
admitted this ; but added, suchvas their peculiar situation, that
unless they took a round sum, in a few weeks they could not
find out the father, as nine times out of ten they eluded the vi-
gilance of the parish officers. It was finally settled that ls. 6d.
a week was to be paid to the mother for the support of her in-
fant.
A singular charge of assault was lately brought
before the Magistrates at Newcastle. It was a
charge of one man biting another's.nose off. It
appeared, however, that the sufferer was willing
to set a price upon his nose, and so tile offence
was compromised.

POETRY.

Oa the RECOVERY of JOSEPH JEKYLL, Esq. from his

late alarming Illness.

ITYGEIA hail ! thy potent aid
Has well for JEKYLL been display'd,
And hence our thanks should draw;
In all his wonted vigour still,
Restor'd, by thy resistless skill,
To FRIENDSHIP, WIT, and LAW.

Thy SYMBOLS with his life agree,
The SERPENT and the CUP—for he
The first by wisdom, chews ;
And may thy Cup of Health be near,
To cheer him many a distant year,
Ere he in death repose.

♦DDRESSED BY A MOTHER TO HER DAUGHTER
On sailing for a Distant Climate.

Farewell! tho' Ocean roll between,
It cannot check a Mother's pray'r ;
Farewell—tho' distance intervene,
A Mother's Love will reach you there.
Thro' midnight hours to watch and weep,
When winds are high to kneel and pray
To Him,
.who rules the angry deep,
Whom Storms attend, and Winds obey.
Oh, these are trials they must bear,
Who those they love to seas'consign,
And now I feel those hours of care—
These midnight musings must be mine.
Farewell—but oh ! remember still
That there are heats, tho' distant, true—
In every change of good or ill,
That beat with warmest hopes for you.
Farewell !—for on that word of pain,
Afflicted memory long must dwell,
Be good—be happy—once again
GOD bless and prosper you—farewell !
