TO DANIEL O'CONNELL.
In discharge of that high reverence for the Holy See,
And for the most Holy Pontiff, the best and greatest,
Whose tame amongst all nations bad already spread
abroad,
To Rome, although in infirm health, he took his way;
But at Genoa, the disease having meanwhile become
much aggravated,
Embracing the cross of Christ, his Saviour, placed there
by himself,
He breathed his last.
Another Moses, the land of the living he from afar be-_
held,
Whose heart, however, in which, whilst he lived,
Pure religion, piety. love of country, solely reigned,
Daniel his son, labouring after the father's example,
To Rome, as dying he had ordered,
Took care should be conveyed.

" His heart he devoted to watching to the Lord."
Eccl. 39.

(On the obverse face of the temporary tomb.)
DANIEL O'CONNELL.
Was of surpassing piety towards God,
Towards the God-bearing Virgin,
To whose protection he had recommended himself,
With singular devotion.
But in the justice. integrity, fortitude of mind, liberality,
Diligence, and ease, with which he adapted himself to all,
He was to be compared to none.
Which virtues of his mind into his four sons
With such sedulousness he instilled.
That it would seem he had destined them not so much for
Himself as for God and his country.
May they long remain after him!
" Let the generation of the righteous be blessed."

Psal. cxi.
A medallion representing him clasping the crucifix on
his heart, was over the door of the temple like mau-
soleum. over it the text, "In memoria seterna erit
ustus." On the other three sides of the mausoleum,
each with one of the three inscriptions under it (twenty-
four feet square), were represented in alto relievo his
first entering into► Parliament, his going to return thanks
in the metropolitan church when elected Lord Mayor,
and his liberation from prison. A colossal figure of Re-
ligion surmounted the temple.

UNIFORMITY OF TIME BY TELEGRAPH.—The
Electric Telegraph Company are now making such ar-
rang,ments as will enable them to communicate the
true time, as observed daily at the Ho) al Observatory
at Greenwich, to every station on the various lines of
railway where the company has a telegraph station, and
of course to all large towns throughout the kingdom. It
is now the daily practice at Greenwich, at one o'clock,
to indicate the true time by dropping a ball from the
upper part of the Observatory, which being telegraphed
to the Admiralty, and signalled to the shipping on the
Thames, enables ship's chronometers to be adjusted.
The contrivance by which the Telegraphic Company
propose to extend the knowledge of this exact time
throughout the kingdom is exceedingly simple. It is
intended that the ball, immediately on being detached at
the top of its fall, should strike a spring, which, con-
nected with the various lines of electric wires of the com-
pany, will instantly strike a bell at every station. Thus
it is not only possible and practicable, but what in all
probability will be a matter of daily experience ere very
long—that before the ball at Gi eenwich Observatory
shall have reached the ground in its fall, the electric
bell at Manchester will have struck and set ringing; so
that we shall know it is one o'clock at Greenwich before
the ball announcing that fact there has finished falling
a few feet! In this way the true time at Greenwich may
be kept by every railway company and every largetown
in the kingdom.—Kentish Mercury.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—AN IMPORTANT CURE BY THE
ÜBE or Ilottowat's•
Pmts.—Extract of a letter from a gentleman
St. Helier's, addressed to the Editor of the " Alirior de
residing at
Jersey," dated June 18, 1847.—Sir,—Form
soe time I have suffered
from a very severe malady, for which I sought the advice of the most
eminent of the faculty, but to no purpose. I resolved, therefore (and
in sheer despair), to give Holloway's Pills a trial ; by the use of one
box I found myself better, and by a short continuance of this Inap-
preciable medicine, I was perfectly cured, to the great astonishment
of my neighbours, who supposed that I could not possibly have re-
covered.—Sold by all Druggists, and at Professor Licaoway'l esta•
