IRELAND.

DUBLIN, Nov. 11.—The Lord Chief Justice Penne-
father took his seat in the Queen's Bench for the first
time this day. The Court was occupied with ordinary
business.

The intelligence of the birth of an heir-apparent to
the Throne and the safety of the Queen, has been re-
ceived in this city with unbounded delight. Joy is de-
picted in every countenance, and the event is hailed as a
signal blessing conferred upon the nation.
Soon after the arrival of the news last night a royal
salute was fired from the battery in the Phoenix-park,
and the joy bells pealed forth their merry sounds.
This day Dr. Murray, the venerable Roman Catholic
Archbishop of Dublin, issued the following :
" To the Roman Catholic Clergy, secular and regular, of
_ .

the Diocese Of? Dublin.

" Rev, and dear Brethren--On Sunday next, the 14th
instant, you will please to add to the usual collect in each
mass, to be celebrated in your respective churches and
chapels, the prayor pro gratiarum actione, in thanks-
giving to God for the safety of her Most Gracious Ma-
jesty the Queen, after having happily given birth to an
Heir to the Throne of these realms. You will please
further to invoke most fervently the blessing of God upon
her Majesty and the Royal Infant. I remain, reverend
and dear brethren, "Your faithful servant in Christ,

" k D. MURRAY.

PRICES OF GRAIN:

By the latest information received from the Continent
respecting the prices of foreign grain, it appears that the
highest quotation of white wheat of the first quality at
Hamburgh is 185 rix dollars current the last, which
answers to 60s. 7d. the quarter. The highest quotation
of white wheat of the first quality in London is 78s. the
quarter. It appears, therefore, that wheat is 30i per
cent. dearer in London than at Hamburgh.
The highest quotation of Zealand wheat of the first
quality at Amsterdam is 332 florins the last, which is
equal to 535. 7d. the quarter ; and the highest price of
white wheat of the first quality in London being 78s. the
quarter, it follows that wheat is 451 per cent. dearer in
London than in Amsterdam.

The highest quotation of wheat of the first quality at
Stettin is 76 dollars current the wispel of 24 scheffels,
which is equal to 51s. 9d. the quarter, and the highest
quotation of wheat in London being 78s. the quarter, it
follows that wheat is 501 per cent. dearer in London than
in Stettin ; and that with the sum of 31. 18s. a man may
buy rather more than 12 bushels of wheat at Stettin ;
whereas with the same sum he can buy only 8 bushels in
London.

The mean or average of the prices of wheat of the
first quality at Hamburgh, Amsterdam, and Stettin, is
555. 4d. the quarter. and the price of wheat of the first
quality in London being 78s. the quarter, it follows that
the price in London is nearly 41 per cent. higher than
the average price of the three above-mentioned places.
The present duty on the importation of foreign wheat
into England is 245. Bd. the quarter, which is equal to
the following rates :—To a rate of 404 per cent. on the
prime cost of wheat at Hamburgh, to a rate of 46 per
cent. on the prime cost of wheat at Amsterdam, to a rate
of 47i per cent. on the prime cost of wheat at Stettin,
and to a rate of 441 per cent. on mean price of the three
above-mentioned places.
The highest price of white wheat of the first quality
at Paris is 34f. per 14 hectolitre, which is equal to 51s.
I Id. the quarter ; and the highest price of white wheat
of the first quality in London being 78s. the quarter, it
follows that wheat is 50-1 per cent. dearer in London than
in Paris.

The highest price of wheaten flour of the first qua-
lity in Paris is 63f. the 159 kilogrammes, which answers
to 395. 7.d. the English sack of 2801 b., and the highest
price of wheaten-flour of the first quality hi London is
655. the sack. ft therefore appears that flour is 641 per
cent. dearer in London than in Paris, and that with the
sum of 31. ss. a man may buy 45911 b. ,of fine flour at
Paris, whereas with the same sum he can buy only 2801 b.
in London.

The price of wheaten bread of the first quality at Pa-
ris, is 35c. the kilogramme, which is equal to 6d. for the
loaf of 41b. English weight. The price of bread of the
second quality is 28c. the kilogramme, which is rather
more than 44d. the h-af of 41b. English weight.

The following order has been made by the Lord-
Chancellor for regulating the distribution of business
among the three Vice-Chancellors :

" Order of Court, Thursday, Nov. 11, 1841.

SUPPOSED INFENDIARY FIRE AT TORQUAY.
—A fire broke out about ten o'clock on Friday night
last, in a farm house at Upton, about a mile anti a half
from Torquay. The house was occupied by a widow,
named Callard, and her four sons and a daughter. All
had retired for the night, with the exception. of Mrs.
Callard and her daughter, who were also about to go to
bed when the fire was discovered. In two hours the
whole of the roof fell in, and the interior of the home
was entirely consumed, nothing but the walls re-
maining. Shortly before one o'clock, pin., on Tues-
day, it was discovered that the barn, which had. so
nearly‘ fallen a prey to the flames on Friday, was on fire.
lhe engine was sent for, but, we regret to say,' it was
of little avail, for the barn, stable, &c. were entirely de-
stroyed. There were about 60 bags of wheat which had
bean threshed in the barn, and a considerable quantity:
unthreshed. A portion of the wheat was got out, but
we fear it will be of little value. It seems to be the pre-
vailing opinion that these two fires were the acts of in-
cendiaries,
but the whole is wrapt in mystery. The house
and buildings were the property of Sir Lawrence Palk.
None of the buildings, furniture, corn, &c. were insured.
The second fire broke out so suddenly, that the horses in
the. stable were with great difficulty got out, and one of
them was scorched.—Exeter Western Times.

LA* INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF CHANCERY, Nov. 13.
LLOYD V. WAIT.
The arguments in this part-heard case were resumed
to day. The case was opened on Thursday, and the
arguments were proceeded with yesterday and to-day
up to the rising of the Court.
The case, which involves the question of the pedigree
of the plaintiff, which has to be traced nearly a century
back, appears likely to occupy several days, the evidence
in the case being extremely voluminous. The only ques-
tion in the case is as to the right of the plaintiff to
redeem a mortgage.

ROLLS' COURT, Nov. 13.
SAUNDERS V. BENSON.

Lord LANGDALE gave judgment in this suit which was
instituted to compel the specific perfermarv:e of the
covenants in a lease in which the defendant was bene-
ficially interested. The pi operty had been underleased,
and while in possession of the under-tenant, had be.2ome
greatly dilapidated, and the plaintiff had been obliged
to resort to an action of ejectment, at the expiration of
the lease, to obtain possession, whereby he had incurred
considerable expense. But he neglected to file a bill
until more than six years afterwards, whereby it was
insisted his right to relief had elapsed. His Lordship
said he thought the plaintiff had been entitled to require
the performance of the covenant in the lease, but as he
bad so long delayed his claim, he was not now entitled
to relief. The bill must therefore be dismissed, but he
thought the justice of the case would be satisfied by dis-
missing it without costs.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Nov. 12.
The part-heard case of Brown v. Brown, which came
before the Vice-Chancellor of England upon further di-
rections, occupied his Honour the whole morning.
(Before Vice-Chancellor KNIGHT BRUCE.)
His HONOUR was engaged during the early part of the
day in disposing of unopposed petitions and short causes
of no general interest.

MILBANK v. STEVENS.

On this cause, which stood first' on the list of long
causes for hearing to-day, being called on, his Honour in-
quired if all the necessary parties in the suit were before
the Court ?

Mr. SPENCE, Q.C., who appeared for the plaintiff, re-
plied that they were not in a condition to prove the next
of kin and heir-at-law.

His HONOUR said that, in that case, he would refer it
to the Master to inquire into that question, and directed
the cause to stand out of the paper, with liberty to apply
to the Court when a supplemental bill was filed.
