SINGULAR SCENE.

. .
At the Meeting on Saturday oetheLondon Hibernian Society,
the Rev. E. Itsing,'Minister of the Caledonian Church, after some
obsirvations on the nature of the Society, concluded thus :
tt To use the lauguageof the Apostle, silver and gold have I none,
but all that I hal* I give Onto thee. My Lord, I beg to present
you with a valuable relic, a gold watch, which belonged 'to my
late brother, and I beg you will keep it in pledge; and whenever
the sale of a work I have lately published shall put me in posses-
.sion of the means I Will certainly redeem it."—He then laid on
the table a handsome gold watch.
The CUAIIMAN requested he wound take it back again, and
repeatedly offered it to him ; but he refosed, and said that so great
AD interest did he feel In the welfare of the Society, that no power
on earth should, induce him to accept it.
This extraordinary scene excited a considerable sensatiou iu the
Meeting. .

SPEEDY AND INCRIMSED COMIUNICATION WIT

ENGLAND.

We have the gratification to inform thnpublic, that two Eng-
lish Mails will he daily dispatched henceforward from Dublin, in-
stead of one, as heretofore. The additional mail will be for.,
warded at six o'clock in the evening, and a coach will be in rea.
diness at Holyhead, on the arrival of the packet, to forward the.
mail-bag to London. Thus a communication will be kept up
every 'morning and evening with England—'—by which means 1
letters will m most cases arrive in London twenty-four hours
sooner than at present. This regulation has been adopted by
the orders of the Lords of the Treasury, and it will be put into
operation as speedily as possible. In addition to which, they:
have also directed, that packets of a larger size than those now in
use shall be built, and furnished with sum-engines of double
the power of those at present employed in the packets on the
Holyhead station. When all these arrangements are completed,
it is supposed .that the passage across the channel will, in ordi-
nary weather, not „average more than five or six hours, as the
time allofred at present is only eight hours. These regulations.
must be of infinite service tb the evening papers of Dublin, as
they will be thereby enabled to transmit to their subscribers the
newest and freshest intelligence from 7the other sine of the channel.
