MEETING OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC BISHOPS.
DUBLIN, NOVEMBER 10.—Several of the Roman Catholic
bishops have arrived in town, to attend the conference of the
prelates which is to commence on Tuesday next. One of the
objects of the meeting is to consider the question of academi-
cal education, and the differences amongst the bishops on that
subject.
There has been a rumour that the Rev. Dr. Kirwan,
recently appointed to the presidency of the college at Gal-
way, has been suspended from his clerical functions by
Archbishop M'Hale, and that he intends to appeal to the
prelates at the conference on Tuesday. Dr. Kirwan is now
in Dublin. As far as we can learn, this rumour is destitute
of foundation. Dr. Kirwan is a parish priest in the diocese
of Galway; and we are informed that the bishop of the dio-
cese alone can exercise the power of suspension. Archbishop
M'Hale is the provincial of Connaught ; -but the authority of
each bishop is paramount in his own diocese; and therefore
it is not at all likely that the archbishop has taken any such
step in regard to Dr. Kirwan.
THE O'CONNELL TRIBUTE.—The annual collection of the
O'Connell tribute took place this day, at the various Roman
Catholic chapels throughout the country. In Dublin
and the suburbs the amount reported at four o'clock,
was 2,8001. This is larger than the average of years
since 1839 for the metropolitan district. Of course, no re-
turns have yet been received from the country districts.
FEVER IN LIMERICK.—We have already noticed the ap-
pearance of typhus fever in the crowded suburbs of Drogheda.
In Limerick, a requisition having been presented to the
Mayor, signed by the Roman Catholic Bishop, the Right
Rev. Dr. Ryan, and some of the leading merchants, that
functionary has convened a meeting of the citizens for
Tuesday next, "to consider the best mode of providing
against the increase of fever amongst the poor."
FASHIONABLE TIIIEVEs.—On Friday last two ladies were
fined 10s. at Henry-street Police-office, for stealing valuable
plants and flowers from the Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin.
The Hartland Peerage is extinct, by the death, without
male issue, of the Right Hon. and Rev. Maurice Baron
Hartland, at Strokestown, Roscommon.

[ ADVERTISEMENT.]—BOTANIC WATER AND BEAR'S
GREASE.—When the hair is becoming thin, and falling off,
the only effectual remedy, besides shaving the head, is the use
of the two above-named articles, applied alternately—tke bo-
tanic water to cleanse the roots from scurf and as a stimulant,
and the bear's grease as a nourisher. If any further evidence
was required of the virtues of bear's grease for renovating and
preserving the hair, Mr. Catlin's account of the quantity used,
and the length of hair obtained by some of the North Ame-
rican Indians, would be a sufficient answer. Ross and Sons,
119, and 120, Bishopsgate-street, who first introduced the use
of bear's grease in this country, and who fat and kill the ani-
mals, recommend the public to purchase none other but with
their names and address printed on the pot, or the changes are
their obtaining a spurious article. All vegetable oft; applied to
the hair are worse than useless.

[ADVERTIEEMENT.]-1-low TO OBTAIN HEALTH
WHEN Losx.—The wonderful regenerating effects that Hol-
loway's pills produce upon the whole system is truly astonish-
ing. This wonderful medicine perfectly identifies and assimi-
lates itself with the blood and other fluids, while it removes
from them all impurities. It acts upon the stomach, the liver,
the heart, the lungs, and the kidneys, and in its course so surely
cleanses and invigorates those organs as to make the return of
health the immediate consequence of a few doses of this won-
der-working remedy. Persons of weak and debilitated consti-
tutions are sure to regain their health and vigour by their use,
even when every other means have failed. Sold by all medi-
cine vendors, likewise at Professor Holloway's establishment,
244, Strand, London. _ _

THE PILCHARD FISHERY.—We have again the
satisfaction of informing our readers that large quantities of
pilchards have been secured since our last publication. On
Friday last, at St. Ives, several large shoals made their ap-
pearance, and the following is a correct list of the quantity
landed : Messrs. Bolitho, 1,100 hogsheads; Tremearne,
1,100 hogsheads; Wearne, 350 hogsheads ; Victoria Com-
pany, 100 hogsheads—Total, 2,650. Several shoals of
pilchards were seen off St. Ives on Saturday, but too deep
for the seins to secure any portion of them.—So!NEN.—
At this place, on Saturday last, a large shoal of pilchards
was inclosed in the sein, but in consequence of the stormy
weather and heavy sea, only about 150 hogsheads were
landed.—GurfwALLor: AND MULLION..--Op Tuesday, the
4th inst., the Farmer's sein at Gunwalloe inclosed a large
shoiil of pilchards, but owing to the boisterous state of the
weather only 400 hogsheads were secured. On the same
day, one of the seins at Mullion inclosed and secured 150
hogsheads.—Penzance Gazette.
Dispatches for the Governor-General of Canada, and also
for the Governors of the other North American provinces,
were sent off last evening from the Colonial-office.
