CALIFORNIA.

The steamer Philadelphia has arrived at New York,
bringing dates from California to the 15th August, and
41,500,000 worth of gold dust, with a large amount of
gold in specimens of heavy lumps of the precious metal.
The Ohio U.S. mail steam-ship from Havana, with the
California mails, had brought half a million dollars of
gold dust, on freight and in the hands of passengers. The
New York Herald for Europe says, with respect to the
yield of the California mines thus far :

" It is estimated that California has sent into the world,
during the past two years, full one hundred and fifty millions
of dollars worth of gold dust, which has been distributed as
follows:
PRODUCTION OF GOLD IN CALIFORNIA TO AUG. 1850.
Shipped to the United States 830,000,000
Taken to Oregon, by miners 10,000,000
Taken to Mexico, by miners 20,000,000
' Taken to England, through Mexico 15,000,000
Taken to England, via Panama 20,000,000
Shipped to South America 25,000,000
Shipped to Sandwich Islands 5,000 000
Shipped -direct to Ragland, via Cape Horn 10,000,000
Shipped to other parts of the world 15,000,000

Total 5150,000,000
" It will be seen by this that but a small portion of the pro:
duct, up to this time, has reached the United States. A pot*•

countries."

tion of that taken to Oregon will, in time, reach this part of
the country; but most of the shipments to Mexico and South
America will ultimately reach England. The large capitalists
of London have made great efforts to get hold of all the
California gold dust possible, for the purpose, in the first
place, of making money by the operation ; in the second
place, to avail themselves of the law comvelling the Bank of
England to pay a certain price for the metal; and in the third
place to accumulate in England an enormous amount of gold,
for the purpose of securing that ascendancy which she has so
long enjoyed in the financial world. The Rothschilds have
been the most prominent operators in this business, and they
'ht ^ rich -vest. Wit', "vents in

nave, n_ dom. reaped a__ every
port on the Pacific, they have had facilities enjoyed by no other
house. If the production of gold in California continues at
the rate already realised, the Bank of England will be com-
pelled to apply to Parliament for a repeal of the law referred
to, as the value of gold must undergo a material reduction, and
its position as a circulating medium changed. Sooner or later
this must be the result of such an increase in the supply; but
as there is such an immense field for the employment of money
in this country, it is our impression that the value of gold will,
for a long time, be higher here than anywhere else, and that we
shall draw within our limits an immense amount from other

In the meantime, the social condition of California gets
worse and worse. A kind of civil war has arisen between
the parties possessing land in California, by grants from
the Republic, and what the American journals call
" squatters." Blood has been shed ; and at the date of
the last arrivals it seemed probable that a desperate con-
test would ensue. The following is the report given in
the Herald:
"The outbreak commenced on Wednesday, August 14, when
an aimed body of about sixty of the squatters were proceeding

to the prison ship to release-two of tlieir party who- were con:
fined on board. They were confronted by Major Bigelow and
members of the Corporation. An affray soon commenced,
and the city was aroused to arms. Major Bigelow was shot
in three places, and died in fifteen minutes after. J. W. Wood-
land, City Assessor, was shot dead, and several other citizens
were killed and wounded. Dr. Robinson and a man named
Mahloney, two leaders of the squatters, were shot dead, as
were several others of the party.
The squatters force soon swelled, from the sixty first engaged
-in the affray, to a body of armed men, numbering between
seven and eight hundred. The keepers of gaming houses
and sporting men generally sided with the real estate•owners,
or citizens proper. A tremedous force was fast accumulating.
The steamer McKim was despatched to Benicia, and the
Senator to San Francisco, for arms, and men to use them.
Just as the steamer Carolina was getting under weigh (about
4 P. M.) a despatch was received on board from the Pacific
News office, stating that an express bad just arrived bringing
the intelligence that Sacramento City had been reduced to
ashes, and the squatters were receiving reinforcements of men
from the mines. This intelligence, however, needs confirma-
tion."

The news from the mines continue 3 to be of the most
encouraging character, several lumps of from 10Ib to 40th
of gold being found. •

Fever was prevailing, to a limited extent, at Chagres;
but it was expected that by the ►riddle or the latter end of
October it would entirely disappear. A failure had oc.
curred in Sacramento city, in which Mr. Barton Lea had
stopped payment, owing g 1.400,000, which sum it was
expected would be ultimately met. There had been in
consequence a run on the Sacramento banks, which had
been sustained.

The markets for produce and manufactured goods are
reported as being, on the whole, very fair. The corre-
spondent of the Herald remarks :

considered good

great animation, the stock being

peculative demand

large lots of bulky articles are forced on the market, consider-
ab'e concession has to be made. Considerable difficulties arise
between the shippers and consignees of goods. It should
always be inserted in hills of lading, to be taken in 10, 15, or
20 days, as the case may be, with this clause :—` Provided the
ship is ready to discharge them ; also, that the ship should
commence discharging them as soon as practicable.' Much
injury is also sustained by the sweat of vessels. We beg leave
to suggest that all vessels should be well ventilated passing
through the tropics."

Money was at 5 to 6 per cent per month. Gold dust
was worth $l6 to 4316.25.

WEST INDIA MAIL,

The Trent arrived at Southampton on Saturday, with
dates from Jamaica to Sep. 13. The rains in Jamaica
continued. In St. Andrew's the lightning had done some
damage. The heat was intolerable. There was a mis-
understanding between the local authorities and' Sir
Charles Grey, because the latter refused to pay the legal
tax on his income. Ground provisions were most abund-
ant. It was stated in a St. Lucia paper that the Emperor
of Hayti had been assassinated by his prime minister.
The Trent brings 241,365 dollars, of which 30,067 are for
Mexican dividends.

BROTHERIX LOVE.—Two brothers, one a soldier in the
26th Regiment of the. Line,, were found last week lying at
the bottom of the wall of the fortifications of Arras. The
soldier still breathed, but soon after expired ; the other
was dead. It appears that for a•length of time the two
brothers detested each other, ,and at last, when excited
by drink, agreed to go on to the ramparts, and struggle
with each other until one pushed the other over into the
depth below. This they did, •whilst a third man held
their caps. The result was that both fell into the ditch,
the one dragging the other after him.
TERRIFIC ACCIDENT.—Advices, of the 21st ult., from
Spain, relate that a dreadful accident had occurred to the
diligence from Barcdona to Valencia. It had fallen over
a precipice between Oronesa and Benicasin, and, with the
ten passengers, and two civil guards, the mayoral, postil-
lion, and zagal, and six horses, was precipitated from an
immense height, the passengers, no doubt, perishing in
their descent, and the vehicle being completely knocked
to pieces among the rocks. The bodies of the victims
were carried out to sea by the mountain torrent which
dashed down the cavity into which they fell ; but six of
them were washed back again, aid thrown on the coast
and the bodies of five of the horses, with a fragment of
the coach, and the mail-bags, were washed on shore on
the 16th, at the Grao, or port of Castellon de la Plana.
D. P. V. Arguelles, governor of Castillon, has ordered a
solemn funeral service to be performed on the lith, in
the principal church of that place, for the victims of this
catastrophe, into the cause of which judicial inquiries had
commenced.
DREADFUL DEATH OF A FATHER AND SON.—On Fri-
day, a man named Potter, and his son, eight years old,
belonging to Topsfield, while on a gunning excursion,
came to their deaths in the following horrible manner.
It is supposed that they, during their excursion, tried to
cross the Ipswich marshes, the father with his son upon
his back, but that the weight of the two sank the father
into the mud so that it was impossible for him to extricate
himself. From appearances, the son, after the father was
thus fixed fast, went some distance further, probably to
get assistance to extricate him, when he also sank in the
same manner in the treacherous bog. While they were
in this helpless position the tide began to rise, and they
were both drowned. Their deaths were not known until
they were both missed from home, when a search was
made, and their horse and waggon found where they had
left them. A further search brought to light the dead
bodies of the father and son in the places were they had
sunk into tne mud, which held them fast while the waters
overwhelmed them.—Boston (American) Traveller.

THE REFRACTORY ROMISH PRELATES—M. Fran-
zoni, the Archbishop of Turin, has been sentenced by the

High Court of Appeal to banishment from the Sardinian
territory, and the revenues of the see have been placed
temporarily under sequestration until the vacant office is
filled up. Immediately the sentence was pronounced one
of the magistrates of the court left Turin for Fenestrella,
the fortress where the" trehbishop was confined, to inform
him of the judgment pronounced by the court of appeal,
and to give him the choice of the country to which he
should desire to retire. It is reported that the archbishop
has expressed his intention of proceeding to France. The
Archbishop of Cagliari having issued a bull of excommu-
nication against the authorities, a council of magistrates
wheig I Was convoked on t 1 21st,

..ne they issued a decree that
if the archbishop did not within four-and-twenty hours
retract in his own handwriting the excommunication he
had issued, he should be banished the state, and the reve-
nues of the diocese be administered by the proper autho-
rities. This decree was notified to the archbishop on the
evening of the same day, but he refused to give the re-
quired retraction. In the night of the 23rd a body of
carbineers escorted him on board the royal steamer In-
cusa, which left on the morning of the 24th for Civita
Vecchia.
THE NEPAULESE AMBASSADOR AND LOLA MONTES.
—The Erivement treats its readers with the following :

" Before quitting Paris the Nepaulese ambassador sent to
the celebrated Lola Montes a magnificent robe of cloth of
gold. Lola Montes is the only woman in France or in
England with whom the Prince Jung Bahadour could con-
verse in the language of his country, and the charm which
he found in the conversation was very great. There was
for a time a question of the departure of the Countese de
Lansfeldt for Nepaul : but, after a war of three years with
England, Jung Bahadour signed, in the name of the Sul-
tan, his cousin, a treaty with Great Britain, by which it is
prohibited to any European to enter the empire of Nepaul
under any pretext. Even English subjects are not exempt
from this clause, which the Indian prince deeply regrets;
for, but for that, he would have taken with him two hun-
dred persons to spread in his country the intelligence and
civilisation of Europe. The English government is said
to have dreaded that Lola Montes would have in Nepaul
the success which she had in Bavaria, and the two English
captains must have made some observations which prove
that the Nepaul treaty was made alike for men and women,
for Lola Montes remains in Paris to plead at law against a
fickle, if he is not an unfaithful, husband." This paragraph,
says Calignani, is what the French call familiarly a canard.
The Nepaulese ambassador, if it should be translated to
him before he quits France, will be equally amused and
astonished to learn that he made a present to the Countess
of •Lansfeldt, in Paris, and conversed with her in his own
language. We believe that the countess has not been
seen in Paris for more than a month.
THE PRINCE OF THIEVES.—The discovery of the most
perfectly organized band of brigands which has flourished
since the days of Maudrin and Cartouche has furnished
us with plenty of anecdote during the week ; the very
elegant, well-dressed, well-spoken, moustachioed young
gentleman who was the -acknowledged chief of the band
being well known amongst the higher circles, where,
until very lately, he shone as one of the most seductive
lions of the day. Several most awkward, uncomfortable
stories have already cum,. t. ~,,,ornirict rho ladies
whose trophies in various shapes have been found among
the hoards brought to light by the vigilance of the police.
The journal which he kept of his adventures promises to
furnish much amusement to the scandalmongers for a
long time to come. One story; which he tells himself,
is int:resting to us in a greater degree, perhaps, than any
other, from the fair heroine being an English lady, well
known in the circ'e of the Tuilleries during the reign of
Louis Philippe. Every item is set down in the journal
with dates and names in full Jan. 4th. Went to pay
my accustomed visit to Madame de S—. Found her
vapourish and sentimental as usual. Of course, displayed
my accustomed aptitude in the art of exhibiting the par-
fait amour, by dint of which obtained from Madame de
S—, under pretence of showing me the portrait of her
husband now in England on business, a sight of her jew-
els and other valuable objects, which she keeps in the
second drawer of the secretaire, to the left of the fireplace
in her boudoir. While her handkerchief was to her eyes
as, overcome by the delicacy of my sentiments, she wept,
I contrived to obtain the impression of the keyhole in the
wax I always carried in my pocket. Jan. 9th. Went
earlier than usual to Madame de S— ; told her of the
very suspicions-looking personage I had met coming out
of her apartment, and asked her, with great interest, if
she could rely upon the honesty of her servants. Jan.
10th. Went to Madame de 5 the moment her kind
and tender summons reached me. Found her in hyste-
rics, all her jewels gone ! Diamonds to the value of four
thousand pounds carried off ! How wonderful ! had
never been to the secretaire since she had shown them to
me ! Bade me hurry to the police, called me her only
friend and supporter under this dreadful calamity. Did
my best to comfort her, but, according to the report
made bk Crochu last night, she overrates the value of
the jewels in so impudent a manner that I can hardly
refrain from breaking out into reproaches. It is I who
have been robbed and swindled !" This specimen of the
journal of the " Baron des Ardennes," as he has called
himself, will give some idea of the rest. Many a fair
lady at this moment finds herself recalling her souvenirs
with doubt and perplexity, and Carlier has already de-
clared that he cannot go amongst his friends without
being absolutely abashed by the inquisitive glances di-
rected towards him.—Paris Correspondent.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
NEWMARKET FIRST OCTOBER MEETING.

This meeting commenced on Tuesday last end closed on
Thursday. The following are the chief races :—On Tues-
day the Grand Duke Michael Stakes were won by Har-
dinge ; Tomboy, 2 ; Mooltan, 3 ; Preslaw, 4; and Utrecht,
5. Utrecht, with Tomboy in waiting, made the running
to the bushes, where the latter took it up, Hvxdinge and
Mooltan following him. These two ran together in ad-
vance until half way up the cords, where Hardinge chal-
lenged, and won on the post by a head. Mooltan a good
third. Run in 1 min. 19 sec. The third Triennial Stakes
were won by Hermandez ; Merry Peal, 2; Payment, 3.
Prestige took the lead at starting, followed by Antigone
and Scandal, the favourite waiting on them in company
with Merry Peal, Payment, Aaron Smith, and one or two
others. No material change took place till they got to the
dip, where the favourite and Merry Peal went in advance,
the former leading and winning by a length ; the same be-
tween Merry Peal and Payment ; Prestige fourth. Run
in min. 14 sec.

On Wednesday, for the Second Triennial Stakes, (second
year,) two started, Clelia and Compass. They were won
by the former by a length. The St. Ledger Stakes were
won by Nutshell, beating Garforth by half a length.
On Thursday, the First Triennial Produce Stakes
(third year) were won by Landgrave ; Elthiron 2.
Vatican, Herbert, Letitia, and Fire-eater aso ran. Bet-
ting : 6 t 8 5 agst Vatican, 5 to 2 agst Elthiron, 4 to 1
agst Landgrave, and 10 to 1 agst Herbert. Letitia took
a strong lead at starting, followed by Elthiron and Her-
bert, Landgrave lying in the rear with Vatican. Except
that Fire-eater dropped astern at the bushes, there was
no change until near the Duke's Stand, where Elthiron
took up the running, attended by Vatican, Landgrave
waiting on the latter. On reaching the cords Landgrave
went up, headed Elthiron, and won cleverly by a length,
Elthiron beating Vatican by three lengths. Run in
3 min. 55 sec. The Queen's Plate was won by half a
length by St. Rosalie; Little Jack 2. Zadoc, Van
Dieman, and Goodwood, also ran. Betting: 6to 4 agst
St. Rosalia, 7 to 4 Little Jack, 5 to 1 agst Zadoc,
and Bto 1 agst Van Diemen. The Rutland Stakes were
won by Buckhound, beating Merry Peal, Artizan, Beau-
fort, and Phlegethon. Betting : sto '4 on Merry Peal,
and 3to 1 agst Buckhound. Artizan, Merry Peal, and
Beaufort lay together in front until within a distance of
home ; Merry Peal and Buckhound then singled them-
selves out and raced lame together, Buckhound winning
in the last stride by a head. Run in 1 min. 23 sec.

CESAREWITCHSTAKE.—The Emperor of Russia having
withdrawn the £3OO formerly granted, the sum is now
given by the Jockey Club. The nomination fees, how-
ever,' more than cover the amount. The Emperor's
Plate has•not been discontinued.
TEE LATE ST. LEGER RACE.—It is singular that the
only horses which ran dead heats for the St. Leger, and
won afterwards, should be sons of 'Voltaire. It is also
remarkable that Russborough should ,Yie a grandson cl
Voltaire—Tearaway, the sire of Russborough, being by
Voltaire, out of Taglioni, by Whisker. I'be objection to
Russborough after the dead heat with Volt igeur, on the
score of age, is deemed a compliment to the Ii dish, it being
supposed that no three-year-old could have effected so
much in competition with the Derby winner.

IRELAND.

The Very Bev. Thomas Townsend, Dean of Waterford,
has been elevated to the see of Meath.

A numerous meeting of the tenants of ,the Marquis of
Waterford has been held to denounce the conduct of the
party who forwarded a Rockite notice to his lordship.
Dr. Gray, proprietor of the Freeman's Journal, and his
brother, Mr. Wilson Gray, have seceded from the Irish
Tenant League, on the ground of the dangerous responsi-
bility which arises from the system of organisation now
finally adopted by the League.
Cork and Galway are carrying on a little bye battle for
the prize that is assumed to be intended for the worthier
harbour as a Government packet station. Cork sneers at
Galway. while Galway retorts that Wicklow would be just
as good a harbour for the purpose as Cork.
_

Lord Dungannon has aisc.overed that John Gilmore,
who holds under him 54 acres in Downshire, at lls. 9d.,
the Irish acre, has been sub-letting 10 acres to Peter
M'Cormick at 465. 4d., and all the while, complaining of
tyranny and oppression.
The county Antrim estates of the Earl of Mountcashell
will be set up for sale in the Encumbered Estates Court
on the Bth of November next. The income is abont
£12,000 a-year, and the encumbrances nearly £300,000.
Lord Mountcashell is himself the petitioner, and it is ex-
pected that the produce of the sale will go far towards
enabling his lordship to hold his extensive Munster es-
tates free from debt.

MEETINGS.—TEN ANT-RIGHT.--We present our readers
with as extended a report of the above meetings as our
space will allow. The numerous attendance, the enthu-
siasm displayed at them, and. above all, the business-like
manner in which they have gone to work, to carry out the
plans of the League, afford the brightest omens of good
results to follow. The presence of Mr. Sergeant Shea,
one of the most eminent members of the English bar, and
a man of large landed property in the county. of Kilkenny,
in the chair at the meeting of that county, is a circum-
stance of no ordinary moment. He is not the man to
commit himself to an illegal or " Communistic" move-
ment."—Derry Standard.
BIBLE-BURNING BY A PRIEST IN CLEGGAN.—Far in
the west lives a somewhat noted priest—W. Flanelly by
name--P.P. of Ballinakill, in Connemara's wilds. Last
winter this worthy son of the pope was summoned to a
poor widow's death-bed side. She felt her end draw
nigh. and sought the absolving hand of her church's
anointing priest. The heroic Flanelly_ came and sought
with eager glance- for heresy's fell trace ; he rested not
until he fixed his basilisk gaze upon an English Bible and
an Irish Testament ; with clutch triumphant he cast them
in the fire, manfully to burn down heresy ! The widow's
daughter sought to save them after the priest went out ;
but he returned, and taking the remnants cast them into
the sink, and vigorously trampled them'beneath his feet.
Those remnants, burnt and befouled, were gathered up,
and are now preserved as a standing memorial of priestly
and popish detestation of the sacred word of the living
God.—Dublin Herald.

WANTON ATTACK ON A CONGREGATION AT CHURCH.
—A correspondent of the Kerry Post states that on Sun-
day, the 22d ultimo, during Divine Service at Templenoe
Church, within five miles of Kenmare, and shortly after
Mr. Rogers, the clergyman, bad ascended the pulpit, a
most furious and unprovoked attack was made on the
church, the rattling of stones being heard on the roof,
and the most savage yells rending the air without. On
passing to the school-house, which is some hundred yards
from the church, and in the direction of the chapel, the
mob gathered with redoubled fury and more savage cries.
It was the usual monthly examination of the Sunday
school, and Mr. Rogers and some of his flock (among
whom was Mrs. Mahony and others of her family) went
into the school-house, in the direction of which the rabble
were fast collecting. The Rev. Dennis Mahony, calcu-
lating on his influence with the peasantry, inconsiderately
went among them to advise them to disperse; and while
be was in the act of doing so, received a severe kick from
one of the ruffians in the crowd, from the effects of which
he has since suffered severely. Several other blows were
inflicted ; nor was Mr. M. the only member of the family
that suffered from the dastardly attack of these hounded
fiends. But their fury rose still higher; and the object
of their vengeance was the school-house, which they now
encircled. Mr. Rogers was within quietly examining his
pupils when the yells of the savages without soon rendered
all hearing impossible. Notwithstanding all the storm,
the school was closed with the usual singing and prayer,
and (strange to relate) when Mr Rogers appeared out-
side all was comparatively calm. There was not far dis'.
tant a public-house to which they occasionally repaired,
and from the vicinity of which John O'Sullivan, the parish
priest, at last emerged, and harangued the mob in osten-
sibly soothing terms, telling them to despise, as he did,
the proselytising soupers, for that he would soon put an
end to them.

ALUMNI OF T.C.D.—The Most Reverend Michael
Slattery did, as Mr. John R. Corballis truly intimates,
receive his academic education in Trinity College, Dublin,
whereof he is a Bachelor of Arts ; having done homage
on his two knees to a Protestant Archbishop for that
degree. He was fed find lodged gratuitously by the
foundation of Queen Elizabeth, during the four years
of his undergraduate course; for, his " Grace" was a
Sizar, and, if we are rightly informed, studied in the same
class with the Bishop of Cashel. He was indoCtrinated
in astronomy by the late Archbishop Magee, who held
" heretical" opinions upon that and other subjects. The
late Bishop Elrington taught him Natural Philosophy and
the Laws of Motion, whereby he might have learned that
no body can be in more than one place at one time. He
imbibed true notions of optics from Dr. Stack, who,
—if eye-sight had anything to do with the matter—could
have shOwn him some light on certain practical questions
of 'Ph.olagy. He ptchea up nearnen Greek he
knows from the Rev. Dr. Graves ; and Dr. Miller, late of
Armagh, was his tutor in History. Now, is the Most
Rev. Michael Slattery any whit a worse papist for all
this ? Have the innumerable legs of mutton that ho
masticated, at the expense of our Alma Mater, shaken
his affiance in the Pope, as the source and centre of every
good gift, upon earth and above it ? Is he not still a
potent believer in all that his church holds to be essential
and indispensable for his soul's health ? Is he less of a
" good hater," so far as regards' Protestant Institutions;
than if he had never eaten commons off the same trencher;
with Toby Burke. or chopped logic in one division with
the present Bishop of Cashel? It would be an insult to
the Most Reverend Michael, and we are sure he would
take it as such, to resolve any of these questions to the
prejudice of his orthodoxy. Why, then, does he require
the Pope to re-enact those Penal Laws, by which the
subjects of his Holiness, or of his predecessors, were once
excluded from the Irish University ?—Dublin Mail.
O'CONNELL'S GRAVE.—NO monument is raised to the
memory of the great " liberator" over his remains at
Glasnevin Cemetery, near Dublin. A gentleman who
has recently visited the spot thus describes what he saw.
" Neither age, name, when or where he died, is to be
seen. The coffin rested on tressles, over which was an
iron sheet, erected to prevent the water oozing through
the earth dropping on the coffin. The coffin is covered
with silk velvet, originally said to be puce colour, with
gold ornaments and handles. At the foot of the coffin
rested a handsome wreath of silver and gold flowers, with
an inscription indicating it, for " Ireland's best of pa-
triots." The doorway was barred with iron, and the
wreath, from its position, seemed to have been thrown on
the coffin through the bars. Whoever the party was that
offered it at the shrine, it possessed a melancholy interest,
for it was the only relic visible from a people who at one
time acknowledged no other sway but O'Connell's. The
following colloquy passed between the party and guide :
" Is this the spot where the national monument is to be
erected ?" "No ; there is other ground set apart for
that." " You can't tell when the monument will be
erected ?" " Indeed I can't." "Is it intended that the
coffin shall remain here ?" " I should say so !" was the
reply. "Is it possible that his relatives or friends would
not be permitted to remove the coffin ?" The guide shook
his head and replied in the negative. This answer so as-
tonished the party that they inquired the reason, when
the guide replied—" The fact is, gentlemen, there is a
deal of money due on the coffin !" He was pressed to
explain, when he stated—" That it was the Committee of
Glasnevin burial place that went to the expense of bring.
ing over the coffin from Genoa. Now until that money is
paid the coffin will not be allowed away !" Having
thanked the guide for his attention, who for his class in
life was shrewd and intelligent, the party got on the car
and proceeded to Merrion-square, to see the residence oc-
cupied during his lifetime by him whose coffin was just
seen. The house looked gloomy and desolate, amidst the
stir and bustle that surrounded it. Large printed bills on
the windows announced—" To be let P It may be here
stated that the £350, which had been subscribed in
Cork towards the erection of a national monument to
O'Connell, has been diverted from its original purpose,
and expended in the purchase of a stained glass window,
which has been put up in Father Matthew's new chapel
in that city.
