IRELAND:

[,2,014 THE DirBLIN COIIRESPONDENT, 18.]
We have much satisfaction in announcing a
considerable hnpriivement in the produce of the
Revenue in Ireland, in the year 18'2], over the
preceding year (180,) as will be seen in the
following comparative view of the two years. It
is another solitce of gratification, that the in-
crease is on those bran Ches which prove a return
of commerce and prosperity. The low rates of
interest, and the rising of the Funds, are further
proofs of the wealth and prosperity of the king-
dom :

[MOH THE CORK ADVERTISER.'
We this day received a letter from the Hon.
Richard Hare, M. P., of which the followin,; is
a copy. The ready cpmmunication of such im-
portant and satisfactory intelligence to the inha-
bitants of this county affords a fresh instance of
Mr. Hare's attention to Ls public duty :
Convamore, Jan. 16, 1822.
SIR-I have had a communication from Mr. Goulburn, in-
forming me that measures have been taken for charging upon the
Consolidated Fund, one-half of the additional expense to which
the proclaimed Districts may be subjected ; and that this ar-
rangement will apply to those Baronies in the county of Cork,
where the extraordinary Police has been established.
It appears to me advisable that this should be madelnown—
an:: you may, if you please, insert it in your Paper.
I am, Sir, your moat obedient Servant,
RICHARD HARE.
• We understand that a very great improvement
in the method of bleaching linen and Yarn has.
lately been made by Mr. Crookshank of this
City.—As far as we have been able to ascertain,
its chief Merit consists in disengaging the chlorine',
from the oxy-muriate oflinen—by which ingeni-
ous process it is enabled to act with full force
upon the cloth and yarn. Independently of al
considerable saving in the quantity of bleachingl,
liquor, by which the possibility of injuring the
fabric is prevented, this process combines some
other very important advantages. It has already
been tried on a considerable scale, and has met
with the full approbation of a Gentleman of
chemical celebrity.—We are informed that Mr.,
Crookshank has submitted his discovery to the
Linen Board, and proposed to exhibit its advan-'
lages by a course of experiments. We• hope
therefore that the process will shortly be made
public, for the benefit of the trade.

The Mayor, we are happy to find, has suc-
ceeded in his benevolent exertions, to have the
.public coal yards of this city opened for the con-
venience and comfort of the poor.
We are happy to be able to state that, by the
exertions of that active Magistrate, William
Preston White, Esq. assisted by Henry Wallis,
Esq.. of Drisbane Castle, another most active Ma-
gistrate, fourteen of the persons who were en-
gaged in the attack lately made on Mr. Kirch-
hoffer's house, have been apprehended.—(Cork
Mercantile Chronicle.)

KING'S ThEATItE.—The Opera of Nozze de
Figaro commenced on Saturday night, at seven
o'clock, with the laudable view to prevent the
performances from intruding on the Sabbath. The
house was full. A very pleasing new Ballet fol-
lowed the Opera, and Pandore closed the whole
at a quarter before twelve.

OLYMPIC THEATII.P..---An extraordinary scene
was exhibited at this Theatre on Saturday night.
The performance announced for the evening's
entertainment was The Pirate, and at the usual
hour the house began to 'fill. At seven o'clock,
there being no appearance of the musicians, the
audience became impatient, and manifested their
feelings in the customary way, by calls for
" music," Scc. This was in vain, and the storm
increased.—Mr. OXBERRY, the Stage-manager,
at length came forward, and alluding to the
ribsence of some of the principal performers,
for reasons which he did not explain, lamented
that there could be no performance that even-
ing. He apologised for the disappointment,
but said, all those who had paid for admis-
sion, should receive their money as they went
out. Pending the uproar, the money takers had
gone into the theatre to ascertain the state of
affairs, and not being in their places when the
public rushed out, a new source of complaint
arose. The crowd, finding no impediment, went
on till they reached the street, where their num-
bers were considerably swelled by the passen-
gers, who, without hesitation, returned with them
into the theatre ; and thus that which before had
been a thin house, became almost " a bumper:"
The distress of the Manager was thus enhanced : it
was impossible to discriminate between those who
had paid and those who had entered without that
ceremony, and consequently a difficulty arose as
to those who were entitled to the proposed resti-
tution. Much confusion followed, but at length
it was proposed and acceded to by the major
part of the persons present, that they should take
checks, and call at the Theatre on Monday to
receive back their money, and thus the business
ended in the theatre ; but several of the gallery
members became extremely' pressing for the re-
turn of their Toney at the moment, and, proceed-
ed to the house of Mr. Oxecutt-v to enforce their
claims. Here they became clamorous to a degree,
and the crowd increasing, it was not till the in-
terference of the police that order was restored.
—We understand that the cause of this unfor-
tunate occurrence is attributable to discontent
felt by some of the performers whose salaries
were in arrear. We sincerely hdpe that; some
amicable arrangement may be made before this
night ; and that a theatre, abounding with talent,
and affording so pleasing a source of entertain-
ment, may not be altogether closed. We believe
that there were not less than seventy or eighty
persons dependant on their exertions on these
boards for a subsistence.—(British Press.)
