MARTLEBONE VESTRY.—On Saturday, at the
meeting of the Marylebone vestry, the Rev. Dr. Spry, the rector,
in the chair, Mr. Nicholay brought forward the subject of the re.
cent committal of Mr. Mayer, the furrier of Oxford-street, for an
assault on his brc.ther-in-law, Mr. M`Lean, picture.dealer, 16,a,
Strand. The circumstances connected with this disgraceful affair
excited in the vestry a general fteling of commiseration for the
situation of Mr. Mayer, and of universal disgust at the unnatural
conduct of the seducer of his daughter. It appeared that Mr.
Mayer had been in business in Oxford-street for twenty ye;.rs, and
sixteen years ago he was left a widower, with an only daughter,
three years of age. His daughter was now nineteen, and two
years ago she came home from boarding-school. Since that period
she had occasionally visited her uncle (her mother's own brother),
this M'Lean, who, being a married man and old enough to be her
father, was deemed a proper person to confide her to. He
would ask the vestry to picture to themselves the horror of a
doting father, like Mr. Mayer had been, to find two months
ago that his only child was dishonoured, and was enceinte
by her unnatural uncle; that his wife, who was in the same con-
dition, contrary to all decency, had been sent into the country to
be confined, whilst Mr. Mayer's daughter was being confined at
his house in the Strand. After her accouchcment, the heart.
broken father endeavoured to reclaim his daughter, and, for that
purpose sent her to his house in the country, on her promise never
to see her seducer again. Let tl.em judge of a father's feelings
when, on Tuesday night last, he was infermed that his daughter
had not only left her infant, but that her unnatural uncle had
enticed her again to his house in the Strand, where she had spent
the Monday night. The poor father, almost bereft of reason, on
hearing this distressing news, went immediately to M'Lean's house,
in order to see and reason with his wretched child. He carried,
as usual, his stick with him. Ile knocked at WLean's door,
and it was opened by himself. Upon the impulse of the
moment, Mr. Mayer, not being able to control him-
self, knocked down the seducer of his child. Mr. Mayer was
the same night taken by the volice to the station-house,
where tie was locked up all night, and taken before Mr. Twyford,
Di‘icrioa.my:frai:tteoerdNhealiwdi tgntahttaeoi
the magistrate at Bow-street, for the assault. Mr. 'Pwyford had
refused to hear in defence the circumstances which caused the pro-
vocation, and also refused to accept bail, but
Newgate. He had been informed by Sir Peter Laurie that Mr.
Twyford haand

him,

brought before Mr. Justice Coleridge, who at or ce admitted the

DEPARTURE OF THE BRITANNIA.—The royal mail
steamship Britannia, Captain Hewitt, sailed from the Mersey on
Saturday, for Halifax and Boston; with a large number of pas-
sengers and the usual semi-monthly mail. The new arrangement
for zhe transmission of the Canadian mail from Boston to Montreal
—instead of, as formerly, from Halifax—came into operation on
Thursday last. Saturday's mail will, therefore, be the first die.
parched by the new route through the United States.
Her Majesty and Prince Albert honoured the

REVEAL DEMONSTRATION IN DUNDALK.

Dr atirl, MAY —Mr. O'Connell arrived in Drogheda rn-s.
Wednesday evening, and stopped that night at Reappock's
On Sunday the llon. and Learned Gentleman received deputations
from the CorporAion of Drogheda, and from the trades of fl-,c
ancient municipality. About half-past ten o'clock, Mr. O'Connell,
together with Mr. Smith O'Brien, M.P., who had arrived by the
mail train front Dublin, entered his carriage. The other gentle.
men inside were Mr. .ohn O'Connell, M.P., and Mr. T. M. Ray.
Secretary to the National Repeal Association. A procession of
the trades with banners, and many hundreds of the towns-people,
all preceded by the temperance band of Drogheda, playing favourite
national airs, proceeded through the town in front of Mr. O'Con.
netl's carriage, the whole presenting an appearance of much spice.
dour. Along the line of route there was scarcely a single house
that was not decorated with evergreens, and several with garlands.
From Dunleer crowds of foot passengers and horsemen and vehi.
eles, in great numbers, joined the procession. On entering Dun-
dalk the scene was such as the imagination alone can realise. The
doors were decorated with evergreens, the house.toi's
with
streamers; the windows were filled with ladies fashionably de e"ed•
Mr. O'CONNELL addressed the peop'e at the market-square, .and
said—My object in coming forward at once is to return yob:
thanks in my own name, and in the names of those who were
persecuted along with me, for the glorious manifestation of your
sentiments and gratitude that I witnessed to.day.—(Cheers.; It
was a magnificent demonstration of your love of peace, of order, of
liberty, of scbriety....aye, and for the freedom of your native land.—
(Cheers.) I doubt not you will finish the day as you began it,
and that you will return to your homes with the same order ,and
tranquillity that you came to meet us to-day, and to do us honour:'
And now, my friends, is it not legitimate to inquire what the
common object is that we all have hail in meeting here this day',
—(1-fear, hoar.) Exclusively of the manifestation of your kind-
ness, chat is the great link that binds us together? what it eve
ultimate object that we seek ?—(Cries of " Repeal nothing elta
rein satisfy as.") We could not require more, and somebody tells,
me that we will net take less.—(Cheers ) You who interrupted
me awhile ago said well that we should have no compromise.
No ; we will not take any instalment as a satisfaction for the
debt. I will take ali I can get for the Irish people, and I
will ask for the rest the moment afterwards.—(Cheers.)
Give me, I will say, six oence. in the pound of my debt, I will look
out afterwards for the other nineteen and sixi'ence._(Laughter.)
After some further remarks in a similar strain he thus concluded.
Why should not your bosoms beat high with hope? Are you aware
that Peel his acknowledged we cannot be put down by force ?
(Hear, hear.) Yes, he has distinctly admitted that repeat agitation
cannot be put down by force, and he is right. We will bide our

time in tranquillity of soul,:and take our opportunity when it comes.
Things can't remain as they are. Before three months elapse,
England may be in a war. Good luck to her in that war if she
does justice to Ireland first. I will not pray at all on the other
side of the question—(Laughter)—for it s past praying for. There
is no knowing how soon sonic vicissitudes in the fortunes of Eng-
land may achieve everything for us, and take my word for it, that
it there be a war within the next three months or so you will be
walking up to Dublin before Christmas next, with small sticks in
your hands, just for the purpose of seeing what an Irish Parliament
looks like.—(Cheers and laughter.)
Ttte 13Axecur-Roost.— Along the walls were shields, each
inscribed with appropriate mottoes referring to ancient and modern
events in our history, of which Ireland may be well proud. On
an entablure over the chair was the motto, " Men of Lowth, re.
member 1826." UnderMeath was hung a shield bearing this in-
scription :

" If again the sword we draw,
True men that none may sever,
I'or Ireland's right and Ireland's law
We'll cross the Boyne together—
Each for the altar of his love,
But all for Ireland's glory."
To the right and left of the chair were shields bearing respec-
tively the mottoes :—" I said concession had reached its limits ; I
retract the expression."—Sir James Graham. And—" You cannot
put Repeal down by force."—Sir Robert Peel.
Other inscriptions commemorated the imprisonment of " the
Repeal Martyrs," on the ~Otti of May, 1844 ; the Declaration ci
Irish Legislative Independence, the 16th of April, 1782 ; the
battles of Clontarf, Dungannon, Benburb, and Beal-a-nath-buidhe.
On other shields were inscribed Tara, Clontibret, Mullaghmast,
and Mallow ; and the names of Grattan, Flood, Charlemont, and
other Irish patriots. In other places were seen the names of
O'Neill and Sarsfield, and " Grey Porter and the Irish Militia,"
were not forgotten.
About seven o'clock, Mr. O'Connell and the other guests having
arrived, the chair was taken by Capt. Seaver, Heath hall.
The usual loyal toasts having been drunk,
The CnAIRM•N, after a suitable eulogium, gave—" Daniel
O'Connell, the Liberator of Ireland, and the Repeal of the Union."
—(Drunk with the utmost enthusiasm.) Air, "See the Conquering

Hero comes."
Mr. O'CONNI.LL said—Overwhelmed, as I naturally ought to be
by the excess of the praise, almost beyond belief, and certainly, in-
finitely beyond any merits of mine, which you bestow on me, it is
fortunate for me, under those circumstances, that 1 have soy speech
before me. Repeal—no compromise—repeal— Loud cheers.:
do ask the British Minister if he understands the situation of Ire-
land—l ask every nation in Europe if they comprehend the po-
sition Ireland has taken. 1 look back to the struggle that we
have already made with pride and pleasure—with pride that is en.
lanced—with pleasure that is augmenfed—for the materials of
our past history so abundantly crowd upon us now, that the
future story of Ireland is easily told if we have but the virtue to per-
severe, and the manliness to avoid being cheated into cessation,
combined with the determination that nothing shall bribe us, as
nothing shall intimidate us.—(Cheers.) We were a province—a
pitiful, petty province—the union having struck us down. I
will nut delay you to state how that union was achieved; it would
take a volume to recite one half of the crimes that were perpe-
trated to accomplish it. That union struck us down into provin-
cial pettiness and lowness ; but is not Ireland rising again to Ova
dignity of a nation ?—(Cheers.) Is not the assembly I address
here to-night listened to by kings, and emperors, and republics?
—(Cheers.) Is not what falls from us here to-night to be con.
sidered as a portion of the wisdom of cabinets, and of the
determination of statesmen ?—(Hear, hear.) Is it not influencing
the decisions for peace or war of mighty nations ?—(Cheers)—
and civilization is at a paese to see what step the people of Ire-
land will next take.— (Renewed cheers.) We have become a
ratios in operation before we are one in point of law.—(Cheers.)
We have the power of a nation before we have the army
or the navy of a nation—(Cheers)—and the humble in.
dlvidual who addresses you, representing the wants, the
wishes, the peaceable qualities of the Irish people, becomes dis-
engaged from his own nothingiu ss, and expands into the rowers
of one of the monarchies of Europe by this magic.—(Hear, and
cheers.) The conduct of the Ministry; to be sure, is most conso.
latory ; but, at the same time, there is something in it like incon-
aisle, cy. The Secretary of State for the Home Department de-
clared that concession to Ireland had reached its limits, but the
waves from Conciliation_hall have blotted out this declaration,
and, like the inscription of the schoolboy, every vestige of it is
obliterated.— (Cheers.) I ant exceedingly thankful for what we
have got, but we have not asked for it. I have not heard of any
Irish petitions in favour of it, with the exception of a few, for
which I ant thorougly grateful, and one of which was from Bel.
fast. But the Catholic people are looking on with the dignity of
men who had been foully robbed and ought to be conciliated. They
are calmly looking en, allowing those who robbed them to make
them reetitution.—(Cheers.) There is no exaggeration in stating
it, that the opinions of the British Ministry--of the British
Government—must abide the messages of peace they send to
Ireland.—(Cheers.) If they conciliate Ireland, they can bully the
rest of the world ; but they cannot bully Ireland.—(Cheers.) They
tried in vain before; they sent me to gaol for one hundred days,
and I rejoice to say that we are a hundred times stronger now than
when we went into gaol.—(Cheers.) We have only one course to
adopt, and that is perseverance, keeping at the same time within
the bounds of the law.—(Hear, hear). We have much to do, and if
we do not do it in the same way that we have hitherto acted—if the
same steps are taken—it we act with the same determination, and
will not put it with an if—we will certainly not be deluded by any
scheme of Ministerial bribe.—(Cheers.) They have not money
enough to buy us, or measures enough to take us away from the
pursuit of repeal.—(Loud cheers ) Let Irishmen but combine as
brothers, and Peel may rant as he pleases, and Graham may rare
with mock solemnity till he imagines himself the most magnificent
of mortals. They are, both one and the other of them, only tracing
characters on the sand, which to morrow's tide will wash away—
the voice of congregated millions will become resistless as the force
of the multitudinous waters, and Ireland will be a nation once
again and for ever.—(Loud cheers.)
After several other toasts, including Mr. O'Connell's fellow.
martyrs, shortly before twelve o'clock the large assembly separated

SOUTHAMPTON, Mir 3 —The Pen;i.sular ar:d
Oriental Company's steam-ship, the Duke of Cornwall, Captain
Higginson, left the docks this day at three r.st., for Constantinople,
calling at Malta, there to tranship the India and China mails and
passengers to the Iberia steam-packet for Alexandria. The Duke
of Cornwall takes out to the Levant a large cargo of bale goods.
The Royal West India mail packet, the Severn, Captain Vincent,
with :21 passengers, 280 bottles of quicksilver, 12 boxes of specie.
and other cargo, left the river yesterday, taking out the West In-
dia and South American mails. The Oriental Company's steam.
ship Paella, Captain Burney, arrived in the docks early this morn.
ing, and lauded the Peninsular and other mails, which were for.
warded to London by the nine a.m. train. She left Gibraltar
April 05, Cadiz, 26, Lisbon 28, Oporto and Vigo 29, and Corunna
30th. The Pacha has 44 passengers, chiefly from Maderia ; also
a full cargo of fruit and hides. Princess Donna Anna Dejus, aunt
to Dom Pedro, came passenger in the Pacha; her arrival was tele-
graphed to the Portuguese embassy in London previous to her pro-
ceeding to London by the eleven o'clock train. A new steamship,
the Wonder, has lately been put upon this station, running be.
t seen here and Havre. Her average trips have been from seven
to nine hours.
HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT.—From the estimates of
the amounts to be proposed for miscellaneous services for the year
1845-6 (which were on Saturday issued by order of the House of
Commons) it appears that 8,395/. is the sum that will probably be
required to defray the expense of providing temporary accommo.
dation for the Houses of Parliament committee-rooms, offices, &c.,
for the year ending March 31, 1846. The amount required last
year was 5,420/. ; and in 1843, 9,590/. For the new Houses of
Parliament, a further sum of 85,0001. will be required for the ex-
pense of the works for the year ending 31st March next, beyond
what has already been provided for by Acts of Parliament. This
amount is described as being "on further account of the cost of
the superstructure of the Houses of Lords arid Commons, the
tral hall and connecting corridors ; the Victoria gallery, the Vic.
louse

SHIPWRECK OF TIIE DUKE OF SUSSEX STEAMER.
—On Friday morning, about 9 P. M., this vessel was wrecked
about 150 yards from the port of Boulogne. It appears that, when
about 14 miles from her destination, she became leaky. On
nearing the harbour, her engine-room was full of water, and her
fires extinguished ; she thus remained at the mercy of a strong
south-west wind and rolling sea, which soon drove her on shore.
There were 17 passengers on board, who were only saved from a
watery grave by the pi ompt assistance of the pilots.
TIII: WRECK Of 11. M. BRIG SKYLARK.—The
officers and crew were conveyed to Portsmouth yesterday, arid have
been transferred to the flag-ship to await the event of the Court of
Inquiry which must be instituted into the cause of her loss. The
greatest praise is due to Lieutenant Smith for his intrepid and
praiseworthy assistance, by which the lives of many were saved.
iOn the wreck being left yesterday, the brig wa,l on her port side
! b.lged, and part of her upper deck gone ; the foremast, mainmast,
saintopmast, and bowsprit, all standing—the rest of the spars
having been got ashore by the crew and the coast.guard boats.—

JUVENILE ENJOYMENT AT N EwsTE AD ABBEY.-
On the Ist inst. the inhabitants of 'Worksop and Mansfield
turned out of their houses to witness a cavalcade of six coaches
full of happy faces proceeding to and from the classic grounds of
the far-famed Abbey of Newstead. They were the pupils of the
Pestatozzian Academy at Worksop, and the occasion is annually
celebrated as the birth-day of Dr. Heldenmaier's lady. Some of
the parents of the pupils followed in their private carriages, among
whom we observed Lady Carnegie, who had arrived from Scotland
to attend this celebration. Many birth-day odes composed by
the boys were delivered to their " mental mother," besides one of
great merit from a former pupil now at the University of Cam-
bridge, and a magnificent piece of plate, subscribed for and de.
signed by the present pupils, among whom are two near relations
of the celebrated Miss Edgeworth, who by sending them to
Worksop, has given the best practical proof of her opinion of the
superiority of the Pcstalozzian over the ordinary system of educa;
tiou. A large swarm of bees settled
about to start, which was considered a most happy omen,
