MEETING OF THE CORPORATION THIS DAY.
DECLARATION OF LOYALTY.
An adjourned meeting of the Corporation of Dublin
was held this day, when the following rational and timely
resolutions were proposed by Alderman Stanton, ex-
Lord Mayor. and adopted after a very animated debate:
" Resolved,--That we embrace this present opportu-
nity of declaring that we have never ceased to cherish
sentiments of devoted and affectionate loyalty to her
Majesty's person and throne.
" That the duty we owe to her Majesty has ever been
strengthened and ei:forced by the conviction we have
always entertained, that her Majesty's conduct in dis-
charge of the functions of her exalted office has been
that invariably of a constitutional and beneficent
Sovereign.

" That we view with detestation and abhorrence all
attempts to excite an insurrectionary spirit in this
country, and that measures to uphold the ascendancy
of the laws, and the power and authority of the Throne,
shall ever receive our hearty co-operation.
" Resolved,—That our opinions on any questions re-
lating to this country, formerly made the subject of
complaint or remonstrance, remain unchanged ; and that
we do not think we would discharge our duty to the
Throne if we did not record our conviction that great
and comprehensive remedial measures are altogether in-
dispensable to the permanent peace and tranquillity of
Ireland."

HYDROPHOBIA.—On Monday afternoon, Mrs. El-
stob, of Montpelier row, Blackheath, with her two
daughters, whilst driving a gig in the Kent-road, a few
yards from the Paragon, were compelled to stop in con-
sequence of a crowd that had collected round some pos-
turers, and the animal, a fine chesnut mare, became
restive at the noise. Almost at the same moment •
large bull-dog sprang from the side of a butcher, and
firmly fixed itself on the neck of the animal. The mare
immediately darted off at a furious rate; the ladies, how-
ever, fortunately received no injury; but upon the beast
being stopped, she was tound to be most dreadfully
lacerated. An attempt was then made to' secure the dog,
which snapped at several persons, but the butcher
permitted it to escape, alleging that it was not his
property, but belonged to a carman living in the Dover-
road. The mare, after being taken home, was ex-
cet dingly restless, and yesterday morning became 6.0
furious as to kick down a portion of her stall, and upon
Mr. Adkins, the veterinary surgeon, being sent for, he
declared that the poor animal was labouring under hy-
drophobia, and upon his suggestion she was immediately
killed. In the course of the afternoon Mr. Elstob, h

A GOOD 1110D•DISPERSER.—It has been recom-
mended to Government to send Mr. Anstey to Ireland,
for the purpose of addressing all public meetings, as,
from the great success he has had in the House, he could
not fail, within the shortest space of time, to reduce the
largest assembly to considerably less than 40. Mr.
Urquhart, it is reported, is to accompany the Hon. Mem-
ber in this great plan of Irish pacification. The two to•
gether must succeed..—Punch.
