An investigation of a very extraordinary_ character
Wink place this day in the Examination Hall of the University of
Dublin, before two of the Visitors, the Lord Primate Beresford,
and the Most Reverend Dr. Magee Archbishop of Dublin. The
Provost, a large number of the Senior and Junior Fellows and
upwards of sixty Students, were in the HalL The case appointed
• Yor hearing was an Appeal from the Reverend Charles Boyton,
Junior Dean and Assistant Secretary of the Brunswick Club of
Ireland, against a decision of ' the Board on a complaintistws
fared by him against Mr. Costello, a Scholar of the University.
It appeared that on last Trinity Sunday Mr. Costello was
standing outside the Collegi gate, when the Rev. Mr. Boyton
came up, and ordered him to go into the College. Mr. Costello
did not comply; and for this disobedience of the order of the
hinior Dean a complaint was lodged against him, and be was repri-
manded by the Hoard, who directed that he should be deprived of
his rooms. From this decision Mr. Boyton appealed, on the point
that the chief pan of the punishment (the deprivation of collegiate
apartments) had not been inflicted. This day, however, Mr.
Boyton expressed his desire to withdraw the Appeal, as he had
learned, since writing his Memorial for a re-investigation, that Mr.
'Costello did not now reside in the College.
The Plums:, as President of the Board, explained the reason
iiihy Mr. Costello bad not been forthwith deprived of his chain-
. boo, that he was permitted to occupy them for a few days until he
loss able to procure lodgings in town.
* The Loan PDDIATI declared his perfect approbation of the
course taken by the Board, who were the local Governors of the
University ; and having carefully perused the Memorial of the Rev.
Mr. Boyton, he felt bound to say that the grounds set forth for his
appeal were frivolous and vexatious, calculated to injure the sub-
ordination which the well-being of the University required. The
Rev. Gentleman, his Grace believed, had been actuated by a warm
and honest zeal. but, in his opinion, that zeal bad not been teas-

.pered by discretion.
The Atchbishop of Dublin felt that a species of censure bad bass
pronounced upon the ilsv..Mr. Boyton, and his Grace apprelsontlod
it was not judicious to condemn without a hearing (bear, boor l'
aisd appliuse from the Stusients on the right side of the Hall, OW
'sliming from those at the sett).
The Lord Primate said he bad not given expression to his sent
merits without due consideration of the statement contained in the

:Memorial of the appellant.
The Archbishop of Dublin entertained the bighdit respect for
the judgment of the Lord Primate, but in the present instance be
felt bound to dissent front the opinion his Grace had pronounced ;
and be conceived that, under all the circumstances, a re-investiga-
tion was required (approbation front the right, and hissing from
the left).
The Lord Primate should adhere to the opinion he had first ex-
. pressed% and as there was a diwgreentent between the two Visitors
present, the only alternative was to refer the question to the Lord
Chancellor. The Lord Primate added, that as the matter now
stood, any decision which should be pronounced would be a cen-
: sure either upon the Hoard or the Rev. Mr. Boyton.
It was them intimated that the final decision should be announced
ee Tinesday, if the Lord Chancellor should determine in the

wooostime.
Whilst the Visitors remained, Mr. Longbeld, a Lay-Fellow,
who has been recently called to the bar, rose and said be under-
stood, from some hints which had dropped from certain Alembers
of the Board, that it was intended to deprive him of his Fellow-
ship. If such were the case, he expressed his determination of
asserting his right by every means within his ability.
The Aacitinsuor of Dusint--You surely will not give opposi-
tion, Mr. Longfield, if it should be superfluous'
The Visitors then took their departure.
The acquittal of Burke and Shine, at the Cork Commission, on
Thursday night, and the complete break-down of the Approvers,
give the whole affair a totally different complexion ; and it is ge-
nerally believed that the Government will not sanction the execu-
tion of old Leary, nor, indeed, of the other those persons convicted
