ILLNESS OF LADY lIEYTESBURY.
DUBLIN, SEPT. 30.—Somo symptoms of improvement
appeared yesterday ; but we regret to say that the
answer to inquiries at the Castle this day is very un.
favourable. The disease undQr which her Excellency
suffers (gastric fever) has assumed a very alarming type.
Yesterday, at the Castle chapel, prayers were offered up
for the recovery of her Excellency.
TIIE NEW DEAN.

It is stated very confidently that the deanery of
Killala, vacant by the death of the Hon. George Gore, is
to be conferred upon the Rev. Frederick F. Trench, per-
petual curate of Cloughgordon, in the county of 'rip-
perary.
This is the first benefice of a superior class in the gift
of the Crown which has become vacant since the appoint-
ment of Lord Heytesbury, and considerable interest has
been manifested respecting the selection of the new dean.
All the Church appointments of Lord De Grey were
made from amongst the bitter opponents of the national
system of education. If the statement of the selection
of the Rev. Mr. Trench for the vacant deanery be cor-
rect, Lord Heytesbury has commenced in a very different
spirit. That gentleman has been a supporter of the
national system, and he has 'vindicated his opinions on
the subject in a published correspondence with his rela-
tive, the Earl of Clancarty, whose hostility to the
National Board he had endeavoured to remove.
If Mr. Trench really has been appointed Dean of Kil-
lala, the ultra-Church party will make a great outcry ;
but the Government could not, with any pretension to
consistency, sanction a continuance of the wretched
policy of Lord De Grey, in promoting clergymen opposed
to their own views on a question of great importance in
Ireland.

REPEAL ASSOCIATION.
The usual weekly meeting of the Association was held
this day, in the Conciliation-hall. At one o'clock, Mr •
Maurice O'Connell entered, and moved that Alderman
Kerhan should take the chair.
The CHAIRMAN returned thanks for the honour con-
ferred upon him, and congratulated the Association on
the manifest progress which the repeal
use
The people were becoming sensible of the absolute kinneg:
ne-
cessity there existed for somespec
species of domestic legisla-
tion, and ho need only- refer to the motion brought for-
ward on Wednesday last in the Corporation, by a Con.
servative member of that body, as quite conclusive on th.z,
point. Many plans had been proposed t:Qr the ameliora-
tion of Ireland, but they would Placi:i themselves under
the guidance of Mr. O'Connell, and would abide by that
which should meet with his approval and approbation.
Mr.
ceedin CREaN read the of the last day's pro-
Mr.g M. CiVoilhiEld. said that before he commenced the
kmSIIIP4 of the day he would take the opportunity of
hearing testimony to the steady and persevering exertions
of their worthy and respected Chairman in the ser-
vice of his country.—(Loud cheers.) The Honourable
Gentleman then handed in several contributions—
amongst them asi, 6s. 9d. from Barbadoes, West Indies,
is. from Manchester, and several sums from the
north of Ireland.

Mr. HENRY GRATTAN handed in 41. from Trim (county
Meath), and then addressed the meeting at considerable
length. The Honourable Gentleman dwelt oa the gene-
ral discontent which at present prevailed—the manufac-
turer, the agriculturist, and the landed gentry, were all
equally dissatisfied. He declared ho could not coincido
with the declaration " that those who were not with us
were against us." His colleague, Mr. Corballis, a Ro-
man Catholic gentleman, was not with them, but he cer-
tainly was not against them ; and he trusted that the
time was not far distant when he would be numbered
amongst them. It was to the Catholic clergy, the safe-
guards of the morals of the people, that the salvation of
the country was to be attributed. The Government
would make an attempt to buy them as well as to sell
the Protestant clergy 2 but he would tell the Catholic
clergy that they would regret to the latest moment any
pecuniary favour they might receive from the British
Government.

After the disposal of some routine business had been
gone through,
Mr. MAURICH O'CONNELL announced the rent for the
week to be 3491. flits.

Mr. Scott was then called to the chair, and the usual
vote of thanks having been passed to the former chair-
man, the meeting adjourned.
