IRELAND

THE QUEEN has appointed Sir John Young;,Bart., a
visitor of Maynooth College, in the room of Wiz. W.
Somerville. _ _ _

ROYAL EXPENDISIME.—Her Majesty expended £B,OOO
during her recent visit, in the purchase of Irish fabrics.
THE EXTRIORDINAZY CONSPIRACY ViaS brought to a
conclusion on Friday, by the dismissal of the summons
and. the discharge of thellefendants, Mrs. Kelly and Messrs.
Maloree and Campion;
FURTHER ADVANCE' nslVmsKy.—The price of whisky
was on Monday fixed at 7s. Bd. to 7s. 9d. per gallon; at
Cork. There has also been a considerable advance in.the
price of brandy•within the last week, several sales havin
been made at 9s. 6d. in bond.

TRIENNIALLY a custom, is celebrated in the harbour of.
Cork, analogous to the• marriage of the Adriatic by the.
Doge of Venice. The Mayor and Corporation sail to the
boundary of the harbour;.and cast a silver arrow into the
sea, as a mark of their sovereignty. The ceremony has
just been performed by Mi.:Mag,uire,theMayor of the year.
THE MYSTERIOUS SUICIDE in French-street, Dublin,
has been at last identified as,that of a man named Madar-
lane, a clerk in the house of Messrs. Mein, wool-merchants,
in Jedburg, who absconded on the 25th of August last,
with £7OO belonging to his employers, leaving behind him
a wife and child. The body has been twice exhumed, and
disproved to be either that of the son of Mrs: Forbes, the
lady so perseveringly believing in its identity, or the
missing husband of another party. It has at last been
identified by a magistrate, who recognized the miniature
found with it.

THE AZTEC LlLLlrunArriN paid a visit to the Dublin
Exhibition on Tuesday, about eleven o'clock, and caused a
scene of most extraordinary excitement. Attired in grace-
ful golden-coloured tunics, and • accompanied by their
guardians, they passed once • round the great hall. An
endeavour was made to show: them the fine arts court ;
but before they could reach the entrance their progress
was arrested by the dense • multitude gathered around
them. But the eagerness of the spectators defeated the
aim of their curiosity.
AMUSEMENTS AT Conn.—The frolics of the sailors of
the fleet lying at Cork have affbrded considerable amuse-
ment to the inhabitants. The-other day a party of sailors,
on leave, came upon a vendmrof stucco images and in a
triee a bargain was struck with him for the disposal of
the whole of his wares. This done, one of the party
mounted on a wall, and put-the images to auction to the
girls in the neighbourhood—the price to be paid, not in
the current coin of the realm, but in a corn current
through all lands, namely, ins kisses to him and the rest
of his companions. The whole scene of the auction; the
number of kisses bid by thelethales, and the various de-
grees of coyness with which-, the price was paid by the
highest bidders, ludicrous in the extreme, was enjoyed
with exquisite zest not move by the sailors than by the
crowds who were attracted telhis novel system of bargain
and sale.

THE REVENUE or IsrmanD.—From a Parliamentary
paper it appears that the,. nett 'produce of the revenue.of
Ireland paid into the Exchequer in the year ended the 6th
of January last was £4,266,514 12s. Bd. The nett public
income of Ireland in the same year was £5,061,953 10s. 9d.
and the expenditure £3,891443 lls. 5d., leaving in the
Exchequer at the end, or the year £1,170,809 19s. 4d.
The gross duties of Eicuise in the year amounted to
£1,632,302 18s. 2d., and of the Customs, £2,080,469.
From Ireland to Great: Britain in the year, 197,644 oxen,
bulls, and cows, were • exported, and 3,826 calves ; while
of sheep the number Wia9, 158,020, and of swine, 151,895.
The wheat and wheat. iibur numbered 52,724 quarters,
and of oats and oatmeal 1,650,313 quarters. In addition
to the exportations to,Gteat Britain various commodities
were exported to foreign parts, including 12,719 quarters.
of oats and oatmeal, and 21,981 gallons of Irish spirits, &o:.

EXTRAORDINA Bi- ATTEMPT AT MURDER A/T•D,
SUlClDE.—Jonatharn and Marial Owens, husband. and
wife, middle-aged, comfortable looking persons, natives
of England, were brought up on Tuesday, at the Dublin•
police-office, in custody, charged under the following-cir-
cumstances:--Between two and three o'clock on Monday
afternoon the prisoners were observed walking along- the
Custom-house-quay. On reaching opposite the ferry-steps,
the male prisoner threw his arms round his wife, when,
although she struggled violently, he succeeded in dragging
her down the steps to the water's edge, and there threw
himself and her-into the river. The current was running
very strong at the time, and both were quickly drifted
out to the centre of the river, when a ferry boat, which
happened to be within a short distance, pulled over to
them, and rescued them. At the moment the boat
arrived to their assistance the party had sunk beneath the
surface of the water. On being taken out, they were
conveyed tosSackville-place station-house, where it appeared
they manifested the strongest affection for each other. At
the time.they were rescued it was • stated, that both were
under the influence of drink. The male-prisoner was sent
for trial at the sessions on the double charge of attempted
murder and self-destruction. Owens was: described as a
farmer from Yorkshire, and stated that he and his wife
had gone over to see the exhibition.
A CARD/DATE MARTYR.—Mr. G. H. Moore's triumph
over- ex-Chancellor. Blackburne has: encouraged him to
further and greater efforts to obtain thecrown of political
martyrdom. At a gathering in the Rotund° on Wed-
nesday, upon the sentiment of " Religious equality" being
proposed, Mr. Moore, in speaking, to, the toast, said that
they were in a position of inferiority in this country, and
they would 'not endure the ignominy one hour longer than
their weakness and isolation compelled them. The events
of the hour were teeming with instruction to them and
warning to their rulers. Let England see an analogy
between- the events which were now occurring in the
East and her treatment of this country. Another storm
than that before which she is now more rapidly than
honourably taking in her canvass, might . arise from
another quarter. The sympathies of race were not less
vivid on, one side of the Atlantic than upon theother.
Sympathies of faith were not less warm on the banks of
the Seine than on those of the Olga. Ambition was not
confined to St. Petersburgh—there were other emperors
than the Autocrat of Russia ; and let her remember,
should those contingencies arise, they could find a guiding
light in her own great glorious history. When her own
national faith was endangered, she did not disdain to look
for a deliverer in a Dutchman. (Laughter.) The people
of Ireland might be tempted to look over another sea
than that of the German Sea for sympathy and succour.
(Hear, hear.) He:would not wish to be mistaken, if he
dwelt on such a contingency as that he had described. It
was not with hope or pleasure, but with apprehension and
sorrow, that he did so. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) If they
could find sympathy and assistance within the fOur seas
which girt Great Britain, they should not go beyond
them ; but equal rights and equal honour they would have
when and where they could. (Loud cheers.) They could
entertain no hope of progress, however, till they knew
whether truth or treason was to be inscribed on their
banners—whether they had an army to go to the field
with, or only a rabble of place-beggars. All he could say
was, that they'Wdold hope and struggle, and continue in
independent opposition to every English parliament, until
they saw the Irish people enjoying the direction of their
own government—until they saw Ireland with her own
sceptre in her own hand—(vehement Cheering)—her own
sword on her own thigh—(renewed cheering)—and, above
all, her own church, dedicated to her'own God." (Loud
cheers.) Here is a fair challenge to Chancellor Brady—
will he accept it—or will Mr. Moore still carry a banner
ingorihed on it." under the Oueen's Com-

FRIGHTFUL RAIL TVA 1

I.CCIDENI

A MIMIC accident, followed by a iiimentable loss of
life, took place on Thursday, on the Great Southern and
Western line at Straffan, within a few miles of the Dublin
terminus. A passenger train, from Killarney and the
south, that was due in Dublin about six o'clock p.m., was
bronght to a standstill between the Sallins and Stmffan
20c stations, owing to some defect m the engine. Mr. Bar-
. I

rington, the solicitor of the company, who ivas a passenger
by the train (and whO was accompanied by ➢lrs. Barring-
ton), got out, and directed one of the railway servants to
go down.the, line with a 'danger- signal, as there Was a
heavy cattle and luggage train following. The man de-

parted accordingly w7thua red (danger) lamp. He had been
gone about twelve or fifteen minutes when the red lamps

in front of the cattle train were s

It was

taken for granted that it was coming along at a slow
speed, for the line was straight, and its pace could not be
judged, and, in consequence, some persons who had got
out of the carriages re-entered them, fearing lest their
engine might be got into motion, and that they would be
left behind. Scarcely had they done so, however, when
the cattle train ran at full speed into them, going clean
through a first-class carriage that was last in the passenger
train, and driving the remainder into a heap of ruins.
The third carriage from the front of the passenger train, a
second-class carriage, broke up and turned over, bursting
the powerful iron links which held it to the carriage inn,

inediately before it

The im

;icon to the two forward

cut deli' off the one next the ruined train, and it actually
fell upon the spot which the carriage had just before occu-
pied, the unroofed carriage with the one before it, the
tender, and the engine, being sent flying along the line,
which they traversed for nearly three-quarters of a mile
before they stopped, passing the Straffan station about
a quarter of a mile. Of the passengers in those two car-
riages scarcely any escaped without serious injury. Two
were killed, two men were not likely to survive the night,
and five or six were badly injured, all having broken limbs
or serious contusions. Two ladies who sat in a first-class
carriage, against which the engine of the goods train
struck, were killed instantaneously ; the body of one of
the ladies was literally severed in two. A Mrs. Farrell had
her leg torn away and her arm broken ; and Mr. Jelly, of
Maryborough, had his head torn of. At the time of the
concussion Lord Guillamore, his lady, and daughter, threw
themselves on the floor of a first-class carriage, and escaped
unhurt,

Amongst the passengers were Captain James Collis, the
commander of the Times steamer, on which the fatal ac-
cident occurred a few months back off the Pigeon House
Fort by the bursting of the boiler plate. Captain Collis got
out of the train when it came to a stand. His example was
followed by other gentlemen, but only four, viz., Mr.
Connor, of Newbridg,e ; Mr. Kelly, of the same place ; Mr.
Leitch, of Armagh; and an English gentleman, remained
upon the embankment with him. The others returned to
their carriages.
And here a most melancholy episode occurred. The
English gentleman was accompanied 65- his sister, his
wife (a beautiful young lady of one-and-twenty), and their
child, an infant of about nine months. A passenger, a
Mr. Jelly, of Maryborough, a very large; fine-looking
gentlemanly man, had got out of the carriage. in which the
two English kixlies and the baby were, and stood talking
with Captain Collis ; but, on seeing the cattle train coming
along, he got in again, and stood in the door-way watch-
ing its approach. The ladies got alarmed on hearing that
the train was coming, and wanted to get out, but the
English gentleman advised them to stay as they' were, and
he was about to,get in himself, and was only waiting for
Mr. Jelly to get out of the doorway, when the• collision
took place. Mr. Ally was instantly decapitated, both his
legs cut off, and his' body torn to pieces. The ladies were
both killed ; and the agony of the husband and brother,
When he cast himself upon the lifeless body of his young
wife, was indescribable.. The baby was extricated fi.om
under its unhappy mother and aunt, and was living.

When Captihi Collis, saw the train approaching,- he
checked the other gentlemen who were about to enter'the
carriages, and advised' them to wait, as there was no,
calculating the speed. e which a train, end on, was ap-
proaching. He glanced' along the shining part of they
rails, and observed by tile glitter of the reflection from.
the lamp that the speed! was full. The train was then
within a couple of hundred yards. He at once shouted;
" She's coming at full speed ! Look out !—look out !"
And, turning round, he sprang over the wire fence into
the field. Mr. Leitch followed his example, but fell. Mr.
Connor and Mr. Kelly threw themselves on their faces,
having no time to retreat. Captain Collis having gained
the field, look round, and savrthe scene we have described.
When the engine came to a stand-still in the midst of the
min, he jumped back again and ran with Messrs. Leitch,
Kelly, and Connor, to assist' the wounded. They had
dragged a few out, and all who were able to move had
congregated round the shattered train to render aid.
When he noticed the violent throbbings of the engine, he
sang out for the engineer, who• was helping to extricate
some passengers, and bid himl instantly jump on the
engine and blow off the steam; or they would have an
explosion that would destroy them all. The engineer did
ache was ordered, and thus the lives, in all probability,
or even more than had been sacrificed by the collision
were preserved. Captain Collis; having seen 14 dead
bodies, and having helped to extricate about 50 wounded
people—a labour which occupied some hours—arrived in
town about midnight.

A Dublin correspondent writes on Friday :—" The news
orthe appalling disaster filled the .city with consternation
and alarm. Several of the most respectable of the citizens
had relatives or friends among the killed or wounded ; and,
owing to the uncertainty which prevailed during the day
as to the precise number or the names of the sufferers, the
most painful anxiety was felt by a great many persons who
expected friends to town, either by the train to which the
accident occurred, or by some train about this period. In
fact,,the sympathy and anxiety were-universal, every One
feeling, as it were, a personal interest'in the sad affair, and
no other subject appearing to occupy men's attention dur-
inrthe day. The following are thenames of the people
who were killed on the spot :—Mr. T.. W. Jelly, Queen's
County ; Mr. John Egan, Birr ; Mr: Daniel O'Connell
M'Skviney, solicitor, Kenmore, and Mis. M'Swiney ; Mr.
Bateman, Cork ; Mrs. Knapp, Miss. Palmer, Miss Clare
Kirwan, 82, Lower Abbey-street ; Misis Margaret Leath-
ley Eccles-street ; Miss Kate Hamilton Haines, whose
name was written in a prayer-book found in her pocket ;
anctMr. C. M`Nally, solicitor, Lower Gardiner-street. Ano-
ther person, a young and gentlemanly looking man, whose
name could not be ascertained, was alio killed. The only
other death which has occurred up to,the present is that
of Joseph Serwood, Dr. Stokes's servant. Amongst the
wounded was Mrs. Blacker, wife of Mr. Latham Blacker,
solicitor to the Customs in London, and Mr. Neville,
county surveyor for Louth.

MR. BAINBRIGGE'S LECTURES ON
THE PHYSIOLOGY OF THE MIND.

.----

Ox Friday evening, W. H. Bainbrigge, Esq., F.R.C.S.,
delivered, at the Collegiate Institution, the introductory
lieture of his series on the Physiology of the Mind ;
and the great purpose of Education,astrainingman, during
his infancy on earth, for his immortality in Heaven. The
leeturer, who, on his appearance, MB well received, began
by explaining that his sole reason,for appearing again on
that platform was in compliance with a wish expressed by
Mr. Howson, the able and assiduous principal of the Insti-
tution, that he would lend his aide in forwarding the great
end and object of education. After, in a masterly man-
ner, glancing at the various objects of mental culture, and
the, means by which they were: severally sought to be
accomplished, Mr. Bainbriggepreeeeded to consider that
portion of intellectual cultivation which more immediately
tended to the formation of character. The formation of
character should commence inithe earliest childhood. An
infant in its nurse's arms.willlfall into little transports of
temper for any desired object, if it once finds that an effi-
cacious means of gaining what covets. Formation of
character should begin with, the. denial of all concessions
to outbreak of temper;; but refusal, however decided,
should invariably be conveyed with kindness. There ought
always to prevail an example, of good humour. Children
are imitative creatures, and their ductile minds are easily
moulded into the forms which a discreet judgment may
prepare for them. Cheerfolnessbest developes the childish
faculties. Cheerfulness. makes the child happy without
effort—causes the mind to, expand—animates the bodily
functions, and makes all; work harmoniously in the earliest
stages of the formation, of character; and be it always.
remembered that childhood is that happy season in which
the beauty of rectitude is, most acceptable to the young
mind. Worldliness-has not yet crept in ; mistrust has not
yet perverted ; necessity has not yet taught craft ; life is.
all pleasure, saving for the few tear-drops which dim• the
rose of its cheek fOr a moment, to be dried by the, next
breeze that passes by,, even by a mother's smile. The wax
is all ductile; we• may make what impression we will on
it, while the honey is still there. The task is rendered
easy for us—thecasier, the earlier we begin. It is the
parent's h:gbest privilege to present to those young ardent
spirits,' forms of the good and beautiful, and to people
their imaginations of the pure and the holy, so tbat, when
they look into themselves, they may find their own in-
dwelling thoughts safe company. Familiarity with evil is
fatal to the purity of mind. Even in after years, if reason
and religion should bring conviction of error, still the
Memory, instead of being a mine of the treasure of pure
thoughts, becomes only a reprover and tormentor. lam
riot speaking too strongly of the poison which I know to
be sometimes instilled into the ingenuous mind. Parents
cannot watch too closely the characters of those with
whom their children spend their most familiar hours.
Access to books of doubtful or slight morality, and per-
Thctly unsuited to their age, soon follow on improper
associations ; and the evils so contracted are very difficult,
if not impossible, to eradicate. In, books, in example, in
the country walk and by the home fire-side, a high
morality, looking Heavenward, but not always bringing
religion into verbal expression, should be kept in view.
Good and evil should each have its own distinct position,
and never be suffered to remain in a shifting light. As
the mental powers expand, more enlarged views should be
submitted to its operations, according to its capacity of
awarding the deductions of reason and justice. To accom-
plish these great objects, a perfect confidence must be
established between the child and parent. The mind of
the one must; open instinctively to the love of the other,
for it is affection and not severity which rules the heart.
A severe parent will never know his child; that seems to
be the most affecting of human thoughts ; almost the
heaviest of human afflictions. But it is a common case.
A father, thinking he has a stern duty to perform, does it
sternly—the child shrinks from the austere look, and
pours his confidence into some more willing ear. The
' child should turn its opening heart to its parent, as the
flowers which expand to the sun, Let a parent but give
free play to one tithe of his heart's love, and the child
would rush into his arms to disclose every fear, and hope,
and thought, and feeling. Who like a parent could guide
his child into the love of all that is pure, and good, and right,
or teach him to look with religious aversion upon all. that is
