THE ROYAL YORK CLUB.

This loyal body for many years was the only Pro-
testant political society in Ireland. Better times have
arisen; and in place of evincing a feeling of jealousy
at those who have at length come forward in de-
fence of our common cause and common religion--
in place of arrogating to themselves any extraordinary
merit for the part taken by them—they duly appre-
ciate the value of the rank and consequence now
prominent in the field—give them credit for their
motives and their influence, and offer them the full
co-operation of their powers and energies.

TYBONE•--BRUNSWICK CLUB AT GOILTIN IN Tills COUNTY.
On Wednesday last a meeting was held in the
small and retired village of Gortin, in the county of
Tyrone, situate on the property of A. W. Cole Ha-
milton, Esq., for the purpose of establishing a Bruns-
wick Constitutional Club, upon the principles of
that founded in Dublin. Nearly a hundred persons
enrolled themselves as members.

The resolutions of this Club breathe the same

spirit of pure patriotism and sterling loyalty which
will be ever found to govern the Protestants of
Ireland associated for the purpose of preserving their
dearest rights.

A NTILINI-BEI.rA ST.

A meeting washeld on Wednesday in the "Athens
of Ireland," the head quarters of Radicalism, and
the school of Atheism, with the view of establishiNg
even there a Brunswick Constitutional Clubs, and
the effort has been eminently successful. The
Marquis of Donegal presided.

JALLTMONEY.

The leading gentry of this district have had a
meeting, and sent in their adhesion to the Metropo-
litan Club, of which they hive became members.

GUILD Or MERCHANTS.

The Members of this ancient Guild, the senior
Corporation of our City, have announced their in-
tention of dining together on the 25th inst. We
class this announcement under the head of " Signs
of the Times," because many years hove elapsed
since that body have met in social intercourse, for
the purpose of giving expression to their political
opinions ; and because we know that that is the ob-
ject contemplated upon the present occasion.

A partridge was discovered last week perform -
ing the ard Uollb task of a second incubation, upon eleven eggs,
at a distance of a few yards only from a public road. Her
first brood of young fell victims to the heavy showers of
June : and this last effort for an offspring was rendered
equally abortive by the unwelcome visit of a dog.—_ West•

RAPID AND FERTILE GROWTII.-At Rose-

It was attended with immediate relief to the patient, who
is at present in the progress of recovery.—lnverness
Courier.

NEWBYRGH.—This town was visited on
Tuesday last, by a heavy thunder storm. About ten
o'clock in the morning the atmosphere became dark, almost
like twilight—.-4 black and portentous looking cloud was
seen overhanging the town. It suddenly rent asunder, and
poured out its contents. The lightning's glare was followed
by long and loud peals of thunder. Happily, however,
the storm soon passed away, and the sky resumed its
wonted brightness.-,.Edinburgh Ereniny Courant.

The following singular occurrence deserves a
paragraph :—An evil.disposed person,liaving,,during the
night of Thursday or the morning of Friday last, en-
tered that large garden situate in the Netherto,wa, be-
longing to Mr. FERGUS, for the purpose, it is thought,
of supplying himself with some of Mr. FER6US.3 fruit,.
while descending from a tree, the chain of his watch
got entangled with a broach, by which means he
was deservedly denuded of that useful article ; the owner
of the garden finding the watch safely hanging on the
branch in the morning. The watch is considered worth
31., and a gold seal appended wol th Fife Herald.
PARTRIDGE KILLED BY A WEASEL.--A
few days since while some workmen at the farm of Gordon-
hall, in Badenoch, were walking homewards, across a field,
they started a covey of partridges ; the birds, not unaccus-
tomed to such harmless visitations, flew slowly across the
field, and at no great elevation from its surface, when, in
passing over a dyke, a weasel sallied out and in a twinkling
brought down one of the birds. 'The men proceeded to the
spot and found the partridge in the "dead-throw" fairly
decapitated, as if by the mere touch of its diminutive foe._
Inverness courier.

The proprietors of public works in this quar-
ter are in better spirits in consequ;nce of the favourable
accounts from Lancashire. There is no alteration in the
price of yarns or goods; but fully the usual quantity of
business is doing. The fine yarns have not been in such
good demand, from many of the weavers bring engaged 't
harvest, and of course less webs being sent to the country
agents. Coarse yarns are, however, selling better. Power•
loom goods are going off rather heavily, and prices are
hardly maintained. This is attributed to the shipping sea-
son being over.— Glasgow Chronicle.
