The friend of Mr. O'Connell, jun. and Mr. Payne, the
friend of Mr. Leyne, had several interviews together,

Mr. Leyne was walking, accompanied by his brother,l
Captain Leyne, Mr. Twiss, and several other friends.
The crowd passing by immediately recognized the
Messrs. O'Connell, who re named fur a considerable

time in the Court-yard. accompanied by st,rne friends,
and walked along Usher's Quay, and round again to
the Courts, followed by an immense assemblage of,
persons, till at length the crowd became so nume-
rous, that Mr. Maurice O'Connell was induced, about
three o'clock, to retire from the Court-yard, and
shortly afterwards Mr. Morgan O'Connell rode off.
About a quarter past three o'clock, Mr. &serif
Moore and Mr. Farrell, with several peace officers.
and a party of police, repaired to the Courts, and
Mr. Leyne retired with the Sheriff to the Admiralty
Court, where having remained for some time, Mr.
Leyne, the Sheriff, and Mr. Sioddart, Police Magi*.

The General Palmer which has arrived from Ma•
dras, left the Cape of Good Hope on the 28th of Sep.
tember, up to which date no accounts had been received
of the gnterprise steam. vessel ; but as the Royal
George East Indianian, which has arrived at Poo'e,
has letters from the Cape, hopes are entertained that
she may give 'some report respecting her; we under-
stand she left the Cape, after the General Palmer :

PLANCIIZ is preparing a Drama for Tritest and
Yates, at the Adelphi, in part translated from an extremely pope-
larrotznow acting at one of the Theatres in Path, which is to be
pln a few days. Beastse has a petite Comedy for the
same Proprietors, which is to succeed Pirecne's piece.
ARIONA IRON AND COAL COMPANY.—A long ac-
count of the Meeting of Shareholders in this concern,
held at the London Tavern on Monday, has been cir-
culated ; but the proceedings seem to us to amount to
little more than crimination, uproar, and confUsion,
terminating in nothing at all satisfactory either to the
parties or the Public. The minority present were for
blaming the Directors—the majority for praising them.
The latter prevailed; the former demanded a ball. t,
but a motion for adjournment was carried.
SCRAM PACK= ACClDENT.—Thursday, as the City
of Dublin steam-packet was on its way to Liverpo ,1, it
ran foul of a schooner, and caused so violent a concus-
sion, that the gunwale and part of the bow of the packet
was stove in ; a young man named Ryan, who was
standing at the side, was precipitated into the sea; the
works were immediately stopped, or he must have in-
evitably been drawn *under the paddles, and crushed to
death ; a boat was hove alongside, and he was picked
op in a state of insensibility. Being brought into the
caboose, a number of persons gathereJ round him, and
were using means for his restoration, when an explosion
of surplus steam, applied to the culinary department,
took place; the roof of the caboose and part of the
paddle-box were blown off, and many of the passengers
were scalded anal brUised, amongst whom one Gentle-
man, Mr. W. Evans, connected with a London Morn
ing Paper, independent of having his legs and thighs
shockingly scalded, very narrowly escaped being
thrown overboard. This circumstance produced an
53iTersal panic amongst the crew and passengers, as it
was feared that some accident had befallen the steam-
bailer; but on examination, it was ascertained that
none of the works bad suffered the slightest damage,
and everything having been set to rights, the packet
was speedily got under, we gh, and reached her desti-
nation in safety on_the f Bowing morning.
