IRELAND.

A. rumour that the Queen and Prince Albert will visit
Ireland in the autumn has been revived in Dublin and
elsewhere.

THE ADARE CONSPIRACY.-At the Limerick petty
sessions on Friday, Mary Regan, whose husband was
convicted at the last assizes of conspiracy and arson on
Lord Dunraven's demesne at Adare, and sentenced to
transportation for life, was brought forward by her pa-
rents, who represented to the bench that it was her inten-
tion to commit a similar outrage, in order to be sent out
of the country with her husband. She was set at liberty
on her own recognizances to keep the peace, but she is to
be sent to America.

SCENE IN A JURY Room.—At the Cork Assizes last
week, a jury were locked up for the night to consider their
verdict in a case of horse stealing, and not being able to
agree, they retired to repose about midnight as well as
they could on the chairs with which the room was fur-
nished : but shortly afterwards one of them leaped up in
a great fury, and belaboured the rest of his companions
with the chair which he had occupied. One of them re-
ceived a black eye, and nearly all the others were seri-
ously bruised by the blows of their enraged companion.
On the following morning they were discharged, having
come to no decision on the horse stealing case, but utter-
ing loud complaints of the knock-down reasoning to which
they had been subjected.

REPEAL ASSOCIATION.—At the usual weekly meeting
of this association on Monday, Mr. D. O'Connell, jun.
said—" I can state to this association, from my own know-
ledge, that when the account reached Mr. O'Connell of
the speech made by Mr. Sheil, on the subject of the state
trials, he expressed his deep regret that any such speech
should have been delivered. Mr. O'Connell totally disa-
vows and repudiates the matter of that speech. He thinks
it was a highly unbecoming one, as proceeding from any
friend of his ; and he considered it anything but friendly
on the part of Mr. Sheil. I can also state that, as Mr.
O'Connell, at the close of the proceedings in the Queen's
Bench, solemnly protested against the injustice done to
him, he still continues firm in that protest." The rent
amounted to £946.
A SCENE IN COURT !—The following letter from Par-
sonstown, appears in a Tipperary paper :—" A rich scene
occurred on the bench of the Petty Sessions Court shortly
after Sir Wm. Lynar had retired. Mr. Philip Drought,
a deservedly popular magistrate, playfully applied a rod
which he had in his band to the back of Sir Edward
Synge, who was sitting in front of him, when the Baronet
suddenly turning round, and throwing himself into a
pugilistic attitude, popped in his right and left, fibbing
Mr. Drought in a style that would have done credit to
Deaf Burke' or the Tipton Slasher.' Queer things
have sometimes been acted even on the bench, but such
an exhibition as a mill' or sparring match' has seldom
come off in a court of justice."

A LONG FAMILY QUARREL.

CLEGG a. CLEGG.—Mr. Watson and Mr. Cowling or
peared for the plaintiff, Edmund Clegg; Mr. Martin for
the defendant, Robert Clegg.
Mr. 'WATSON stated that the action was brought to
recover between £5 and £6, as rent of the third part of of
quarry, called the Hay-lane quarry, in the township.°
Spotland, held by the defendant as tenant to the plaintter
who were brothers. He was sorry that such a trifling,.
case bad been brought there, but it was not the fault of
the plaintiff. He had sought a cheap and expeditious re-
medy in the county court : but it was the will of the de'
fendant to bring the case to the assizes, and there it Was'
The JUDGE—Didn't you say they were brothers ?
Mr. MARTIN.—Yes, my lord, and they have been (11°'
puting for about 22 years.
The JUDGE.—CouId not the case be settled out Of
court ?

Mr. Martin and Mr. Watson thought that it might.
The JUDGE.-Why, they ought to be ashamed 0'
themselves. (Laughter.)
It was ultimately arranged that a verdict should be
taken for the plaintiff for £5 16s. Bd., and that there
should be a reference for the purpose of dividing the farm
and the quarry on it between the litigating brothers.

DEBT.
WAGSTAFF V. BROADBENT.—This was an action is
which Mr. John Wagstaff, cotton-spinner, near Staler
bridge, sought to recover from Mrs. Ann Broadbent,
flour-dealer, of Ashton-under-Lyne, the sum of £BO,
(being money lent by him to her, about four years ago,)
together with interest thereon. The refusal to pay
seemed to have originated in a belief that the attorney
employed in the transaction had cheated the defendant•

NO CHIROPODISTS ! ! ! NO CUTTING !! !
CORNS AND BUNIONS.

PAUL'S EVERY MAN'S FRIEND is a sure and
speedy cure for those severe annoyances, without
causing the least pain or inconvenience. Unlike all other
remedies for Corns, its operation is such as to render the
cutting of Corns altogether unnecessary : indeed, we may
say, the practice of cutting corns is at all times highly
dangerous, and has been frequently attended with lamen-
table consequences, besides its liability to increase their
growth. It adheres with the most gentle pressure, pro-
ducing an instant and delightful relief from torture, and,
with perseverance in its application, entirely eradicates
the most inveterate Corns and Bunions.

39, Kirby-street, Hatton-garden, Dec. 26, 1842.
Sir,—l was from my childhood afflicted with dimness of sight,
and as I advanced in years became almost blind. My husband
being a medical practitioner, every oculist of any eminence was
consulted, but unfortunately without any real rel►ef. I was re-
commended by one of my friends, although a member of the
profession, who said he had taken it for a few months with the
happiest result : he being relieved from inflammation after long
suffering, induced me to give it a trial. I have taken four 2s 4d
canisters, and shall continue to use it to the end of my days, for
I have derived so much benefit from using it, that I can now
read without the assistance of any kind of eye glasses. I shall
feel happy at any time to acknowledge the great cure your Eye
Snuff has made in my case. Make what use you may please of
this testimony, and remember, I am in my seventieth year, and
can read and ao needlework much better than I could for the
last forty years, without any glasses.
I am, Sir, yours gratefully,

VERY great improvements having been effected in this
Rectified Spirit, it can with confidence be recom-
mended as possessing qualities decidedly superior to any
manufactured. It combines the advantages of cleanliness
and economy, with perfect freedom from smoke or smell ;
and, whilst it imparts a most brilliant light, one lamp
being equal to at least twelve wax candles, the wick does
not require to be cut more than once a week.

T. B. HAY WARD

PRESUMES to solicit the attention of his Friends and
the Public to his
TAILOR & DRAPERY ESTABLISHMENT,

NO. 50, BOLD-STREET,

where, by long experience, punctuality, and, especially,
StNit! of Work executed, he has sincerely aimed at the
satisfaction of the Public and to secure a part of its pa-
tronage. In doing this he does not profess to sell "below
prime cost," as this could only deceive the unwary and
offend the intelligent ; but he does profess to offer to his
Cus'omers artic'es which, in QUALITY, FINISH, and
PRICE COMBINED, are at least equal to those of any
house in Liverpool, and he is determined to make it not
less the interest than the pleasure of his Friends and the
Public to confide to him their orders.
He grounds his claim to consideration on the guarantee
offered by experience, zeal, and a moderate Establishment
and expenses, although in Bold-street, and puts forth the
following List of CASD nows: Prices, not to show how
low he can quote, which is neither his wish nor practice,
(trial being the satisfactory proof,) but to correct any
public misapprehension, by showing, that to sell cheap is
not the peculiar prerogative of the so-called Cheap Es-
tablishments In this town ;
Superfine Dress Ccats, (say any Colour)X2 15 0
Do. Frock Do., ditto 3 0 0
Black Dress Trousers 1 5 0
Do. Vest
Light Quilting Ditto
Satin, rich Figured or Plain .... l6s. to 1 5 0
Velvet, Ditto .. 255. to 1 10 0
It must be obvious to any reflecting man, that the
above, or any other, list of prices, might be made fifteen
or twenty per cent. lower, while, from the almost endless
distinctions of quality in Cloth, and from the natural and
necessary ignorance of the ordinary buyer, it must also
be plain that the purchaser must be ultimately thrown
upon the integrity and good faith of the seller ; since in
this, as in every other department of the trade, it is the
univ Tsai experience and conviction of sensible men, that,
if they will have a REALLY GOOD article it can be obtained
only at a proportionably reasonable price: rubbish may be
met with at any time, any where, arid at all rates.
He has but to add, that, while he would ever recognise
the fair claims of honourable competition, the experience
of above twenty-five years enables him confidently to
affirm, that, in all cases where extremely low prices are
quoted, extremely low qualities can alone be furnished ;
hut, in articles of sterling value, the purchaser, to his cost,
discovers thlt he has to pay, in all cases equal, in many
cases above, the rates of established and respectable
houses; and it is due to himself to state, that no shop in
town can supply a respectable Article on more advantage-
ous terms.

APPLICATIONS FOR SHARES.

The Mining Journal of Saturday contains the folloolbe
exposure of a system which has been discovered in t 6
applications of certain parties for shares in the cancerplan,
writing in false names, with addresses to Liverpool,
Birmingham, Bristol, Plymouth, or any other town, lor
.1
shares to be allotted, without any particular addreol,
being given; and in many instances shares are
priated, on the assumption that Mr. Tomkins, of -1-1116
pool, or Mr. Brown, of Bristol, must be highly-respectto
men, as they deem it unnecessary to give any other, tf is
a general address. Let us see how far this assurnP"P"ates
correct. Mr. Tomkins or Mr. Brown comtnaa ect
is that (2,
with the Post-office at Liverpool or Bristol, and wrd to
that any letters addressed to them shall be forwar°,cefo-
their private address in London—say, Star-alley, or Humes
court, St. Giles's—and thus the allocation letter C° to
back to London. This is one case.—Now proceed o.` of
anlther. A letter of application of the Rev.
Balham Hill, is addressed to a company. An a`lencl,
appointed to ascertain the respectability of the party, tbst
on enquiry of the postmen of the district, is informed 70
the letters addressed to the Reverend gentleman °roe
be forwarded to Cottage, Wandsworth-road.
party making the enquiry proceeds to the place Ore"
and finds that Cottage is a cigar shop, and
proprietor is the Rev. —.
It must be understood that we speak alone of Calf'
coming under our own knowledge. Again, a letter sPlicer
ing for shares is said to come from " A. 8.," of 9.04,11
tain street in —. "A. B." is known as a 1111,1.
respectable man, and the shares are appropriated, reit
the letter never reaches his hands—indeed, he is i..go°
of any application in his name, and, moreover, the red
dress is incorrect. The letter, however, is sec V
by the party who has thus forged the nawe'dot
being taken from the postman. Another case is,, die
of letters being addressed to certain parties, ao"„ro'
address being altered by means of a chemical rev,
cess, and another substituted—thus avoiding „iii/d
responsibility incurred of signing the deed, 'ape,
the premium on the shares is secured. A furtheri.6o
and that of the most vital importance, as connecte"
our commercial relations, and the Post-office authorloitt
is, that applications for shares are made, and the lettedia
reply, in too many instances, are, by an understaPoll
between certain parties, placed in other quarters
,hose for whom they are designed.
We have said sufficient to

,CI tbe

_,cent to put those intereste.. that
,ormation of companies on their guard ; and we have,bot .
grounds for stating, as relates to the latter case, `„,ter
representation will be made to her Majesty's Posto3'
General.
