Within these few days unfavourable news from the
theatre of war has been received in this town. The fol-
lowing statement appears to be nearest the truth :
General Rudtewitsch was ordered to cover with the 3d
corps the movements of the Russian army from Schumla
to Silistria, where it was to cover the 6th corps, under
General Roth, and that under Prince Scherhatoff. In
this retreat General Rudzewitsch is said to have been
closely pqrsued aPd at'acked by Hussein Pacha in per-
son. The Russians are said to have lost say men, and
a great part of their baggage.
In consequence of the illness of Prince ScherbatPff,
C,,unt Langeron had the chief command of the troops
besieging Silistria; but the dreadful weather, the over-
Bowing of the rivers, the rain, and uninterrupted storms
of snow, obliged the Generals to raise the siege of
Silistria. All the cattle has perished, the greater part
of the artillery is lost, and the troops have been ez •
oseJ t r the greatest privationg.

We learn that the command of Varna has been con-
fided to General "Roth, who has a garrison of 6,000
men. The Turks again begin to show themselves in
the environs of that place. The new Grand Vizier is at
Pravadi. All the Russian troops are in full march
towards the Danube; their retreat is impeded by the
incleme:lcy of a most rigorous seaton, and all sorts of
unfavourable accounts are invented and published re-
specting them.

FRIENDLY SVCIETIES.

The SECRETARY then read a letter from R. Young (a
Quaker), of Melvertun, compl.tining of the character of
the pn•ceedings of this Society ; that there was a falling-
off in the intet est of their transactions; and that there was
great complaint, he thought, attributable to the sameness
of the premiums offered year atter year. N it considering
such prejudtcial sameness to be absolutely requisite, he
begged_to suggest that premiums might be proposed;
Ist, for the promotion of " Friendly Societies," to im-
prove the condition of the working classes, and perhaps
eventually to reduce the poor rates ; 2d, to encourage
experiments as to the burning of clay, for the purpose
of elucidating the theory of combustion, and its cost as
manure, adding that 400 bushels of clay had been
burned by half a faggot of good; Sd, for the improve-
ment of the growth of beans; 4th, for the amendment
of the system of malting in the West of England, by
skreening the malt; sth, by proper gradations to intro-
duce the general use of the Imperial measure; 6th, to
promote experiments to ascertain new manures, parti-
cularly to try whether the residuum of gas might not
be usefully applied to purposes of agriculture as manure;
7th, to ascertain what are the best soils for growing
sanfoin ; and, Bth, to encourage the exhibitions of their
live stock in Exeter and Salisbury.
Mr. ELWIN said, that most of the objects of their
complaining " friend's" letter had been considered by
the Society at different times, as far as those objects
accorded with its views. They could not appropriate
their funds to promote "friendly societies;' but, on the
subject of friendly societies, useful as they may be to
the poor, if established on proper principles, from his
connection with the Savings Bank of that city, he
had the means of knowing that too many of such
societies were frauds upon the poor; that out of
forty societies, whose rules, &c. he had investigated
he did not believe that one of them was solvent;
that if all the demand that might be made, supposing
there should be numerous sick, &c. were made, the fund
would not realise the pi omise. The consequences welt
very dreadful. When the aged or sick members came to
make numerous demands, the young members .soon
got alarmed, and the result too frequently was that the
society was broken up, the aged being deprived
that relief for which they had during years subscribed,

BEER PIPES.

The Rev. Mr. Pamirs asked what was the use of
the premium of 101. to the publican who shall for the
longest period use pipes made of pure tin or iron, or
pipes into the composition of which ,either lead, copper,
o. any other injurious metal, enters
Dr. WiLetNioN, said that this premium had been
adopted at his suggestion. It regarded a matter of
consid,rable importance and interest to the community.
When he was in practice, or engaged in giving lectures,
he had ascertained that the pipes used by publicans in
the machines with which they pumped up the beer un-
derwent a rapid dissolution. These pipes, he believed,
now were exposed to still qu;cker dissolution. in corn

manufacture of beer for public houses. He had also

that he would undertake to show that in every pint of
beer brought to him he could precipitate a portion of

'ective and noxious, how important was it to provide
a remedy for what was so injurious to health ! He had
reason to believe that innolious pipes could be provided.

IRELAND.

bUBLIN, Dircoaram S.
Yesterday •the Lord Lieutenant, accompanied by his
tWo youogrr sons, Lords George and Arthur Paget,
rode through town about two o'clock. His Excellency
seemed to enjoy good health and spirits.
His Excellency the Lord Lieutenant entertained a
large dinner patty at the Vice Regal Lodge, Phenix
Park, on Friday. The foliating distinguished persons
formed part of the company—
The Chief Justice, Slr George Hill, Sir Nicholas Culthurst, Sr
Richard Levine, Sir Coghill Coghill, the Solicitor General and
Mrs. DAterty, General and Mrs. Dalbiac, Mr. James Daly, M.P.
Mr. Leeson, Mr. North, Mr. James Saurin Mr. P. Mitchell, Mr.
Robert Latouche, Mr. E. Tickell, Col. Marsden, Col. Beresford,
Col. Thornhill, Major Cane. Captain Bayly, &c.
The Lord Lieutenant visited the Theatre on Satur-
day night, accompanied by his fine and numerous fa-
mily. His Excellency was received at the State en-
trance, and conducted to his box by the Stage and
Acting Managers, Messrs. Calcraft and Elrington. On
appearing in the house the noble Marquis was welcomed
by an overflowing audience with the warmest marks of
attachment, which he seemed to feel most sensibly.
The entertainments, the liivah and the Miller and his
Men, went off with great split, frequently eliciting ap-
plause from the Vice-regal box as well as from the other
parts of the Theatre. His Escellency, indeed, sreme.l
highly pleased with both the perlorn.ance and the
house. The improvements in the pit are sow corn
pleted, and add much to the general appearance,whilst
they contribute greatly to the comfort of the 'frequenters
of that part of the building. We trust the Dublin
Theatre is destined to become once more the resist of
taste and fashion, under the auspices of a Viceroy who
has shown such a decided predilection for the drama, as
the-Marquis of Anglesey has evinced since his arrival
amongst us.

AN OM TWTHIR'NEVI TEAR-Mi.

I stood between the ssweting-Yeara,
The coming and the past;
And I ask'd of the coming orke,
Wilt thou be like the last?
The same in many a sleepless night—
In many an anxious day—
Thank Heaven I have no Prophet's eye
To look upon thy way !
For Sorrow, like the Night-mare, sits
Upon the last Year's close ;
How much of grief—bow much of ill--
In its dark breast repose!
Shadows of faded Hopes Sit by,
And ghosts of Pleasure tied;
How are they changed from what they were,
Cold, colourless, and dead!
I think on many a wasted hour,
And sicken o'er the void;
And misused many a gracious gift,
For better purpose made!
I tbiok on many a once-loved Friend,
As nothing to me now ;
For what can mark the change of things,
As does an Arced brow!
Perhaps *IOW, but a careless word
That sever'd Friendship's chain ;
And angry Pride stands by each gap.
Lest they unite again !
Thus, thinking of the meeting Years,
The coming and the past,
I needs must ask the coming Yen;
Wilt thou be like the last?
There came a voice, but of of speech,
That whisper'd as it pass'd,
Time's progress mark, and cerise be,
I'm better than the last!

PALACE COURT.
Yesterday an action to recover the sum of 111. due
upon a bill if exchange, was brought by Wolfe Lyon
against a Mr. John Whitney: It appeared that the
brother of the defenchint purchsised from the plaintiff
his interest in a house at Westminster, and for which
he gave three bills—two for 101. each, and one fur 111.
purporr ing to be accepted by his brother, the defen-
dant. Two of these bills were regularly paid ; but
when the third became due the defendant, not being
prepared with cash, begged a fortnight's time; and
then he refused to honour the bill, alleging that it, as
well as the two former bills, were forgeries. The action
was therefore brought; and in support of it the case
was cited of Leech v. Buchannan, 4th Espinasse, in
which it was laid down by Lord Ellenborough, that
when a party acknowledges the acceptance of a bill, he
could not afterwards plead in bar of the claim of the
holder that it was a forgery. For the defence it was
contended, that the bill was a forgery ; and in support
of that allegation a letter, written to the defendant by
his brother, was rued, acknowledging that he had forged
his signature to the three bills, and imploring forgive-
ness. Evidence was also called to prove that the ac-
ceptance was not in the handwriting of the defendant.
The Jury, however, returned a verdict for the plaintiff.

It is positively affirmed that a copy of the protOcol
of the last conferences at London. fixing the extent of
the Greek territory, and lirnitipg it to the Morea and •
some islands in the Archipelago, has been sent to the,
three Ambassadoi s. It is also thought probable that
the French expedition will be recalled as me as the
delivery of the fortresses to the Greek troops shall have
boat completed. This- will be accelerated by the ap-
proaching arrival of Colonel Fat:osier, who, it is said, is
commissioned by the French Government to organize
the land forces of the Greeks.
Within these few days several Russian couriers' have
passed through this cky, going to the fleet ia the Archi-
pelago or coming from it.

DUBLIN, Sire. 27.

This day a Meeting was held at the Merchants' Hall
of the Masters and Wardens'of the Guilds of this City,
Mr. Sheriff Howes in the Chair ; when, after a great
deal of adgry talk from Alderman KING, DAVY
M.CLEinT, and others, they resolved to address his
MAJESTY, praying of him to dismiss from his Councils
those Ministers who have endangered the Protestant
ascendancy, and poisoned the Royal mind agairst the
Protestants r I Ireland; likewise praying his MAJUTY
to disfranchise the 405.. Freeholders, and thus enable
them 'once more to lie down in peace and happiness.
Ala. LAWLESS'S I'eIISSION—TURN OUT OP PARTIES
ONE MAN KILLED.
ARMAGII, Seer. is known that Mr. Lawless
had publicly signified his intention df entering Ballybay,
accompanied by a concourse of 20 or 30,000' people.
The incensed Protestants, however, of that town, having
publicly expressed their determination to resist the entry
of Mr. Lawless, several of the inhabitants accordingly
proceeded to onaghan, and called a meeting of Ma-
gistrates, before whom several affidavits were made
relative to the intended procession. The Magistrates
forwarded the affidavits, together with their opi-
nions nn the subject, tb General Thornton, at Ar-
magh, who, immediately after their perusal, left that
townfor Monaghan, accompanied by Sir Guy Camp-
bell; and arrived at Ballybay on Tuesday morning, the
22d-instant. On Mr. Lawless's arrival on that day in
the Vicinity of the- town, and accompanied too by his
promised force. the General and one of the Local Ma-
gistrates fuel that Gentleman, and stated what the re-
snit would be, shield he persevere in entering Itally. bay.
" Honest Jack," however. did net enter the town, but
turned to Car ric kmacross, undetermined how to act, till
he should receive further orders from the •Association.
We wish that all had ended with Mr. Lawless's
return to Carrickniacrots; but we regret to say that
such was not the case. One individu4l of Mr. Liseless's
poly. got satisfied with the conduct of his leader,
singled him-elf out, and accompanied by some
others, rushed into the street, :bowing that he would
enter in spite of rem-. Melancholyetleftsvers to relate,
the unfortunate man immediately received a bayonet-
wound fiom one of the soldiers, and fell down dead
on the spot l It is said that the Catholic. party amounts
to about 20,000, the Prekestant party to only mow.
At three o'clock Sir Guy Campbell returned to Armagh,
when it appeared that up to twelve o'clock that day
both parties were watching each other, anxiously wait-
ing an attack. General Thornton still remains in 13al-
Iybay, which is occupied by several.troops of horse and
f- tot soldiers.

C ,VENT-GARDEN THUTItE.

The Proprietors of this Theatre last nigl.t favoured
:heir friends with a private view of the alterations and
embellishments it.has undergiine dui ing the recess. The
ceiling has been newly painted, and this so gracefully,
!hot it may challenge competition as a model of taste.
The light f the chandelier stillf.lls in the san e pleasing
manner on the proscenium, and adds greatly to the
beauty of its appearance. With' respect to the boxes.
the exterior has been newly painted and re.gilded ;
but a very material'addition has been effected in the
second circle; `chandeliers have bettt added. pod now

,embellished in an extremely handsomeatyle,lnd indeed, ,
every part of the house has been renovated in its
ap-
pearance, but not altered. -The-chief attraction last
night was the production of a mignificient dkop cur•
tali); designed and executed by that able and distin-
guished artist, Mr. Roamers. The design is a temple,
proposed to be erected in the metropolis in himoist of
SHMISIPTA 112. It represents the immortal bard leaning
,upon a pillar, while he is supported on his right hind
.by Tragedy and on the other by Comedy. Surrounding
him are the nine muses, Terpsichore and Calliope being
the most prominent; while is the back ground is seen
St. Paul's and its smoky atmosphere. The persective is
well preserves!, and the effect of light and shade stk.'
played was really splendid. Nothing can' in fact be
conceived more beautiful than the gradual rise of the
light from almost utter darkness to a bright sunny ap
• pearance. The company present noticed it with con.

was shown. The ruins of a Greek Temple and Aniphs-
'theatre, called forth the applause of the company. The
advantage of decoration.. will not be wanting in the
approaching season. Every arrangement amps to have.
been made to provide the bet accommodation fin' the
public, and to render the Theotre seenthy to receive the
most exalted persons in the realm.

71011 THZ CLONMeL HXRALD.

Thousands upon thousands of Ribbonmen congre-
gated in this town, in Tiptkrary, and in Fetbard, on
Sunday last. Several came here fiom Clogheen well
mounted, and under the command of an ostlerbelonging
to the innkeeper of Clogheen ; such is the hankering of
his-master after such scene,, that the fellow rode in at. ,
tended by a servant in livery.
The Party belonging to this town was commanded
by Coo. O'Neill, whose former acquaintance with Mary
Kelly, the prosecotrix rf the murderers of the Shea.,
enabled him to swear that she was not able to know the
difference between turkey and ben eggs. When the
Clogheen party arrived at the turnpike at Marifield
their commander informed the keeper of the gate
that Mr. Grubb, of Clogheen, would pay for all the
horsemen. A horse or- two. of Mr. Grubb's were
seen on this interesting occasion. As they .pas+ed a
Protestant clergyman whowas on his way to his church,
%hog hissed him to such a degree that be became quite
alarmed for his safety. The Clonmel flag, which area-
cured 8 tett by 11, exhibited a daub, representing his
Majesty offering emancipation to O'Connell, who was
repteseett,cl by another daub on the same .flag, having
also, the words," Peace to men of good will"—good will,

daub, representative ,of O'Connell, -sere the words,
"Got Awe the King." Mr. O'Conners band, so called,
attended. 'On Market-hill, outside Fethard., the con.
course wass, immense; one of our venerable Judges hap-
pened to be in the neighbourhood, and had the curiosity,

Lagganstoun. near which the deceased had resided: the

violent a fall that he died on the following Friday. In

LAWLESS AND BALLYDAY..—Tbe town of Ballybay
will be long remembered as opposing the first spirited
and effective resistance to the progress of the vagabond
missionary of agitation and ',hellion; or we trust it will
merit bull smote to be remembered as having furnished
matter to open the eyes of our slumbering rulers to the
pressing necessity of at last doing their duty. A Gen-
tleman this city communicated to us the following
passage of a letter received by him yesterday:—" As
Mr. Lawless. with a large assemblage of his followers,
was. about to enter. Ballybay,.in the county. of Monag-
han, ti eir progress was stopped by sin armed party of
fle..Priitess.nt inbr.bilants, mud. * conflict ensued, and
several were wounded on both sides. Mr. Lawless and
his followers retreated by another road ; and this day
preparations art making-to prevent his entry into Mo-
naghan toivo.*'
The Eveirikg Mail of Friday bas the following :
el The War is commenced ; .Mr. Laiviess has found—as
indeed we anticipated hiseduld' have done—that he has
gone too far north; and the Protestants ol'Ulster have
already given the agitator and his Popish myrmidons a
taste of their' fashion. The latter Gentleman stated that
be would take Ballybay as he bad done Collon, at the;
head of thirty thousand men, and had actually pro-
ceeded to within two miles of his destinatiOn, supported
by something about that number; but it appears tHat
be was calculating without his hoar. About 3,000 Pro-
testants determined that their town should sot be dis-
graced, nor they themselves insulted. armed for their
protection, and drove the congregated thousands fairly'
befoie them back to the town of Castleblaoey, a distance
of some miles. Some skirmishing tooklplace, and it is
said 'that a life was lost, and several wounds inflicted.%

COVENT.GARDEST.

The two rival Theatres are this season running the
race ef novelty against each other, with a spirit and
avidity almost unprecedented. Sca,cely a night ha;
passed since the commencement if the compaign, is
which one or both the houses have rot pr.; duced some.
thing new. Tnis activity on the part of the MO
nagers, shows a disposition to merit public suppert,
and hitherto they have succeeded in obtaining it t ►
an extent far beyond what is usu.l at this early perioi
of t e season. Pursuing this plan, each house last
night brought forward a lair elebutaule in the eperatic
department, and the palm of victory appears to has e
been warmly contested. At this house, alter the repre-
sentation of the interesting and deeply pathetic tale Li
lite Point of Honour, in which the part. or Durivol anJ
iterllia were ably sustained by Mr. C. KEMBLE and M•ss
JARMAN, and Mr.GREIII4, as Vakour, advanced another
step in the favour of the audience, by the spirit and ease
with which he sustained the chsractcr. The opera (:
CorronSide .vas per formed for the purpose of introdoci z
a young lady, namedliveteco, in the character of 81au.%
Alackny. Miss Bernal) has yt ut h, a neat petite fign t
and a pretty face, requisst, s which go far to engage
her the favour Ht the audience; and although she hat
night laboured under all the disadvantages of excess.re
timidity, arising out of a first appearance (as was ststri
sn the bills) on any nig?, she still displayed capabili:irs
as 4 singer, which will, we are persuaded, render her
acquisition to the operatic corps of this establiducc.t.
Of her pretensions as an actress we had no opportun ty
of judging on this occasion, as her extreme agitation tea-
dered her almost wholly inaudible throughout the dia-
logue of the piece; but in several of her songs she dis-
played very considerable power arid sweetness of voice;
of her science and execution it would be prentatute, ea
this occasion, to pronounce an opinion ; she was deser-
vedly encored in a very difficult song in the second act,
and her reception throughout was decidediy favourable.
Her announcement for a repetition of the chat acter ea
Friday received the sanction of the unanimous awn-
tuition of the aud erice. • Mr. BIANCHI TAYLOR took the
part of Cart,siir Lindasy. This Gentlesuai:'s voice
possesses considerable sweetness. Miss GOWAKU mace
a very interesting Janet .Sand?/soh; she sang a litt:e
Scotch air with much sweetness, and was warmlyencotel
The house was more crowded than we have seen it durirt
the season, with the exception of the Light on which .if.
