SLIGO, FRIDAY EVENING, AUG. I.—Mr.
O'CONNELL left this at two o'clock to-day for Boyle. I
have just had authentic intelligence of the organization of
a plan in that town, for the purpose of assassinating that
gentleman. Particulars immediately.—Morn. Herald.
We understand that the apartments of Mr.
BECKFORD'S beautiful Tower on Lansdown are fitting up
in a style of magnificence, united to the purest and most
exquisite taste.—Bails Chronicle.

The Duke and Duchess of ST. ALBANS are
gone to the Continent, disgusted, it is said, with their
treatment in this country.—.Nrigliton Gazette.
NEW REFORMATION.—The Members of

the " Reformation" Society have thought it prudent to
dissolve the body. In so far as the attainment of their
professed object is regarded, they have been long since as
annihilate, as they are known to be unavailable to the
chimerical end which they proposed to themselves. It
appears from an evening contemporary, that, as a Society,
they expired on Friday last.—. Dublin Freeman's Journal.
The handsome new bridge of Listowel was
opened on Thursday, and passed over by the Judges of
Assize and the Mail Coach. It will be a very great im-
provement to that part of the country.—Bath Chronicle.
Mr. LAURENT, the late manager of the
King's Theatre, cleared by his benefit, which took place
a fortnight ago, 9001.: and upwards of two hundred
persons were refused admission, the house being already
crowded.

We understand that the ironmongers in this
city have resolved, and commenced yesterday, to shut their
shops and warehouses, in future, at eight o'clock in the
evening, in place of nine, with the view of giving the
young men in their employment an opportunity of attending
the School of Arts, and the evening classes. This ar-
rangement, we believe, originated with the masters, and do
them infinite credit. It will confer a great boon on the
young men under their charge, and, at the same time, the
masters will lose no business by the early shutting up, and
we should be glad to see the example shown by the iron-
mongers followed by all the other shopkeepers in town.—
Edinburgh Observer.

The wheat harvest has pretty generally com-
menced in this vicinity. The weather, though not so un-
favourable as it was a week ago, does not partake of that
genial warmth which we naturally look for at this season,
and the absence of the sun delays the ripening of the corn.
The wind, after remaining a few days in the northward,
has again veered to the south, and is now accompanied by
gloom and occasional showers.—Bath Chronicle.

TRIM ASSIZES.—THOMAS and LUKE CA.,
ROLIN were tried on Friday last, before Lord PLuxxErr,
and convicted of the murder of Own{ MiDAntEr., a
schoolmaster, at Carrickluk, on the 17th of March last.
They afterwards received sentence of death, and were or-
dered for execution.—Saunder's News Letter.

During the thunder storm on Saturday, a la-
bouring man trenching potatoes, near Clashmore, county
Waterford, was struck by lightning and killed on the spot.
A large cock of hay in the vicinity was consumed by the
electric fluid.—Dublin Morning Post.
Among the recent importations from France
are" four very fine male and four female skeletons, com-
pletely articulated. Presumed value—skeletons, from
seven to nine guineas ! the crania, from one guinea. to
It. 11a. 6d. !"

In the county of Waterford a trial of some
curiosity occurred, as well, perhaps, as of some political
interest. The parties were brothers, Joust KIELY against
THOMAS KIELY. There were two cases of trespass and
ejectment, which were tried together. It appeared in evi-
dence that a private marriage had taken place between the
parents of the parties, the father being a Protestant, and
the mother a Roman Catholic. Alter the birth of the
eldest son, THOMAS, another marriage took place by a
Protestant Clergyman. Jorin Klima-, the youngest,
claimed his father's estate, on the ground that he was the
legal heir. lie failed, however, in showing that the ori-
ginal marriage was performed by a Catholic Clergyman,
and the verdicts, in both cases, were given for the de-
fendant. Had there not been this failure, the elder brother
would lose a valuable estate, and would have been turned
upon the world, with his family, pennyless. An instance
of this kind occurred some time since in the county of Gal-
way. An elder brother of a small freehold property, 500/.
or 6001. a-year, had been married, he being a Protestant,
to a Catholic lady, and by a Catholic Clergyman. lie had
four children by her, when he died. I happened to be on
the spot when the lazbere was executed by the surviving
brother, and I saw the wretched widow and her children
literally turned out upon the road side, from a home they
had considered, until the law took its course, as their own.
Some change ought to be made in this respect, at least as far
as Ireland is considered, as these sort of matches are con-
stantly taking plane.— Times.
We understand that a deputation of three of
the leading members of the Stock Exchange, with whose
names we are acquainted, waited to-day on the Governor
of the Bank of England, for the purpose of making an
offer of purchasing a portion of the Dead Weight, or An-
nuity Pensions, wich Lord BEXLEY co strongly recant- j
mended the Bank to dispose of. In order to induce the
Bank to adopt this advice, it is said that they represented
to the Governor the probability of an immense quantity of
gold being sent out of the country to purchase foreign
grain, which, by turning the Exchanges against us, might
produce such a demand for specie as, in the present state of
the circulation, the Bank might not be able to meet, and,
consequently, another panic would be the result. These
gentlemen, it is added, have speculated largely toe a fall,
and having no Stock to meet their differences, they are, 01
course, desirous of having these securities thrown upon the
market—an operation which would, no doubt, bring
about a decline in prices. The deputation were with the
Governor a considerable time, and we understand that his
answer to their app cation was to the effect that their pro-
posal should be laid before toe Court of Directors to-_
em.

row, and that the result should be comninnicaterlttoc them.

It is to be hoped that these very worthy, n.

There is at present n the possession of JOHN
Rosser., Cumbernauld, a common house sparrow of this
year's brood, with pure white feathers, red eyes, and yel-
low legs. It has been in his house for upwards of three
months, and is quite familiar with them since.— Glasgow
Chronicle.
