SPECIAL APPEAL FOR FUNDS FOR THE ENLARGE.

. DUBLIN.

Nioch success having attended the system for many years
past in operation at the Society's House (which is used as a
Training School for the Elder Orphans, and an Apprentice
Depoo, the Committee (as alluded to in the Reports for the
years 1851 and 1832) determined upon enlarging the House,
so as to afford accommodation for a considerable increase in
the number of Orphans.

To carry this inio effect a new Wing is in course of erec-
tion, with other improvements ; and it is the wish of the
Committee, and of several kind friends of the institution, that
the expense shall not tall in any great degree on the regular
income of the Society (required for the support of Four Hun-
dred Orphans), but that a separate fund be raised to defray
the cost—about .tBOO. The public are, therefore, earnestly
`•'bete towards the " Building Fuud."

ST. GEORGE'S-HALL

nus magnificent structure is now approaching comple-
tion, and, according to present arrangements, it is intended
to be opened early in the month of Septtmber, with the
performance of an oratorio for the benefit of the local
charities. It is already known that the British Associa-

invitation to hold their next annual meeting in this town,
but it is not intended that their occupation of the hall
shall take precedence of the formal opening, which we
have mentioned above, and which will, no doubt, prove one
of the most brilliant assemblages of rank, beauty, and
fashion ever held in the united kingdom. The orchestra
will comprise the stars of the musical world, including,

probably, the renowned JENNY LIND, now Madame Gou:t

scumtnr, and the attractions will be such as to give an
eclat to the affair of more than ordinary importance. We
understand that the total cost of the building will be about

£200,000, a sum not so grew'

when the vastness and

are taken into consideration

while it must be admitted that it is worthy of the greatest
commercial emporium in the world.

COLLEGIATE INSTITUTION.

r
DISSENSIONS AMONG THE MASTERS
OF THE LOWER SCHOOL.
♦

Wiru extreme regret we learn, from a pamphlet just
published by Mr. ARMSTRONG, lately one of the teachers
in the lower school of the Collegiate Institution, that serious

misunderstandings have, for some time past, existed among
those gentlemen, threatening, in no small degree, to im-
pair the usefulness of the school. The real state of
the dispute we have no precise knowledge of, but
from the pamphlet referred to, which is obviously ex

parte, it is sufficiently evident that Mr. ARMSTRONG is
very desirous of making the best of his own case ; and

in this effort, candour compels us to say, his accusations
are much more general and sweeping than the evidence

One fact forces itself upon our notice, from first to last,
in Mr. ARMSTRONG'S statement ; and that is, that he makes
his appearance as an agitator ; and we are sorry to add,
that he finishes as the sufferer in a self-inflicted martyr-

and the charges which he has brought against Mr. Mt c HOD,
even although unsubstantiated, are calculated so deeply
to injure the school, that, for the sake of the institution,
'as well as for the comfort of the last named-gentleman, it
is highly desirable that they should be thoroughly sifted
and, if possible, rebutted. If inquiry is at all made into
the conduct of the teachers of this school towards the
pupils, we doubt not other singularities will, without much
difficulty, be brought to light.

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

Faiiccs.—The despatch addressed simultaneously by
the Governments of Austria, France, Great Britain, and
Prussia, to their representatives at Constantinople, has
been published by the French papers. It gives to those
representatives the instructions identiques which were to
be sent to them in conformity with the protocol of the
sth of December. The text of the protocol is also pub-
lished, and its substance, as well as that of the despatch,
is contained in the brief collective note of the representa-
tives, as follows :—" The undersigned, representatives of
Austria, France, Great Britain, and Prussia, assembled at
a oonfercuee at Vienna, have received instructions to
declare that their respective Governments behold with
profound regret the commencement of hostilities between
Russia and the Porte, and desire exceedingly, by interpo-
sing between the belligerent Powers, to prevent any fresh
effusion of blood and to put an end to a state of things
which menaces seriously the peace of Europe. Russia
having given an assurance that she was disposed to treat,
and the undersigned not doubting that the Porte is ani-
mated by the same spirit, they request, in the name of
their respective Governments, to be informed on what
conditions the Ottoman Empire would consent to nego-
tiate a treaty of peace."
Ausrsre.--The Emperor of Austria has appointed
Count Valentine Esterhazy his Ambassador Extraordinary
and Minister Plenipotentiary at the Court of Russia, in
the room of Count Rudolph Appony, who is removed to
the same post at the Court of Bavaria.
PERSIA.—The Pattie, by an authority derived from
Constantinople, says that Persia had not declared war
on Turkey, as was erroneously stated everywhere in
Europe by the emissaries of Russia ; but it appears that
a very marked difference had occurred between the Court
of Teheran and the Chargé d'Affaires of England. How-
ever, this latter had not, at the date of the most recent
news, quitted the country ; he had merely given his
Government advice of the state of things in Persia.

PROVISION MARKETS

LIVERPOOL, DEC. 23.—Several large sales of beef have
been made this week by holders anxious to clear out, at
price% considerably under former rates. The demand from
the trade is only moderately active. Pork continues lifeless,
the dealers seeming determined to keep light stocks. The
demand for bacon rather improves, but the prospect of large
supplies from America makes buyers cautious. We quote a
further decline of is per cwt. in lard, without leading to an
improved demand. Cheese is a quiet sale, and we cannot
quote any change in value.

DEC. 26.—Our Butter market was quiet last week, which is
usually tt►e rise at this season, and only a limited business
transacted. The value of fine qualities, which range from
98s to 100 s, is without alteration, but lower descriptions have
given way Is to 2s per cwt. Stocks here are only moderate,
and the imports for the last few weeks, compared with last
year, show a considerable decrease. Waterford, Carrick,
and Clonmel 98s to 100 s; Limerick 93s to 965; Sligo 92s to
965; and pickled Cork, 2nds, 90s per cwt. landed: Imported
from Ireland, from the 17th to the 23rd instar.t, both inclu-
sive, 10,990 firkins, 80 kegs, 598 crocks, 269 boxes, 241 barrels
butter, 126 bales bacon, 12 hhds, 13 tierces hams, 25 tierces,
3 firkins, and 67 kegs lard.

4 Of Madame Amedei's voice it may be said, without hesi-

a purer, more satisfactory, and beautiful voice of its class
has not been heard."—The Times, Nov. 24, 1853.
"A finer contralto voice has never been heard; richer in
quality, perhaps, than any upon record."—Morning Herald,
Nov. 24, 1853.
"She has one of the finest contralto voices we have ever
beard. and her style is that of a biAly accomplished musi-
cian."—lllustrated London News, Nov. 26, 1853.
" In the beauty of her contralto voice, she fully rivals Al-
boni; and her personal appearance and energy of declamation
inclines us to believe that on the Italian stage she is Alboni's
superior."—The Spectator, Dec. 10, 1853.

go out from that society. (Hear, hear.) And above all
he hoped they would not adopt the " do-nothing" system,
but that, if they approved of the scheme, they would do
all in their power to carry it into practical operation.
A lengthy discussion took place on the project,after the
reading of a long letter by Mr. Braithwaite Poole, approv-
ing of Mr. Grantham's scheme.
Mr. Joseph Boult, Mr. M`Nicoll, Mr. J. R. Jeffery,
and some other gentlemen, expressed themselves warmly
in favour of the scheme.

Mr. James Holme, Mr. Ald. Bramley Moore, Mr.
Newlands, Mr. Betteley, and others, were afraid that it
was impracticable, and in the course of the discussion Mr.
Bramley Moore stated, that in his opinion Mr. Braith-
waite Poole's letter was intended more to benefit the
London and North Western Railway Company than the
port of Liverpool.
When our reporter left, between ten and eleven o'clock
last night, the debate was still proceeding, but it was
understood that the discussion was to be adjourned to the
next meeting of the

CORN MARKETS.

MANCHESTER, FEB. 26.—We have but a moderate attend-
ance at our market this morning. A limited business is doing
in Wheat, at about the prices of this day week, and Flour sells
slowly, without change in value. Oats and Oatmeal are each
neglected, and barely support our quotations. Beans and
other articles without variation.

PRESTON, FEB. 26.—Notwithstanding the roughness of the
weather, the market was fully as well supplied as usual; and
as the demand was brisk, last week's prices were obtained in
all instances.

WISBECH, FEB. 26.—There has been a very small supply
of all kinds of Grain at our market to-day. Wheat is slow sale,
and about Is. cheaper, and eventually gets cleared off. Beans,
Peas, and Oats, maintain their value.
WAKEFIELD, FEB. 25.—The prevalence of northerly winds
causes extremely small supplies of every article. For Wheat
the trade is languid, and the limited wants of millers are sup-
plied from granary at the rates of last Friday. Good Barley
makes full prices. Oats, shelling, and Beans meet a retail
sale without change in value.
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, FEB. 26—The supply of Wheat
from the interior this morning was large, and all unconditioned
samples sold at a slight reduction, whilst fine qualities brought
fully last week's prices. In south country and foreign little
done, buyers being unwilling to give the prices demanded, and
factors remaining firm in refusing to submit to any reduction.
Barley met a fair sale at late prices. No alteration in Malt.
Oats were difficult to quit, being in large supply from the
country, in addition to the late large arrivals coastwise, and
may be quoted ls. per quarter lower. Little doing in Flour,
and no alteration in value can be noted.
CORK, FEB. 26.—Our market is this week very flat; sales
are in mere retail, and the prices of Flour, Wheat, and Indian
Corn, have all tended downwards. Stocks are considerable,
but holders are not pressing much for sales.
DUBLIN, FEB. 25.—There was a good supply of Barley and
Oats at market to-day, and the lower qualities of each sold
heavily at a reduction of 3d. per barrel, but very little farmers'
wheat appearing, it maintained the price of Tuesday. Indian
corn dull, and the demand in retail.
