EXTRAORDINARY INVESTIGATION

At the Graigue Llrelandl quarter sessions on Thursday
an action was brought by Edward Hopkins against a gentle-
man of considerable fortune, named Butler, who lays claim
to and assumes the title of " Lord Galmoy," for the amount
of a sum of £l6 16s. 5d., the value of goods sold and deliver-
ed to one Ellen Burke, commonly called " Lady Galmoy,"
the reputed wife of the defendant.

The court was crowded to excess, such was the anxiety to
hear the particulars of this case.
Mr. Jacob stated the plaintiff's case. He said the cause
of action was the amount of goods sold and delivered by
pfaintiff to Ellen Burke, commonly called Lady Galmoy In
1840 his Lordship, being a widower, married a woman aamed
Ellen Burke, who was unfortunately, a person beneath his
rank in life ; but, being a beautiful woman, his Lordship be-
came smitten. and the parties were married by a clergyman,
named Maguire, of Cullenswood, Dublin. Being desirous
that her ladyship should be married with an aristocratic
name, she was married by the name of Charlotte de Burgo.
(Great laughter.) She came home in his lordship's carriage,
and told her father, who resides in Kilkenny, how she was
married. This did not appear to satisfy the family, when
his lordship wrote to Mr. Maguire to give her a certificate
in her proper name, Ellen Burke, and to drop the name of
De Burgo. _ _ _

Mr. Maguire refused to give the certificate, and his lord-
ship proceeded to Dublin, and again was united to her lady-
ship in the bonds of matrimony in her proper name, Ellen
Burke.

Thus his worship would see that they were twice married,
to make the act doubly sure. (Laughter.) They spent the
honeymoon at Gardendenny very lovingly, but towards the
end he got a little jealous of her ladyship, and began to ill
use her. He was in the habit of locking her up in a room
and sealing the keyhole to prevent access to her—and on one
occasion, being forgotten too long in his lordship's absence,
she had to be fed with a quill through the panel. (Roars of
laughter.) He beat her frequently, and one occasion drove
her out at night in a state of nudity. She arrived in Carlow
and got credit for articles becoming a nobleman's wife, the
amount of which was the present cause of action.
Lord Galmoy's letter to Maguire was then proved to be in
his lordship's handwriting.
Evidence was then produced of the delivery of the goods
to Lady Galmoy, and to show that she was introduced in
that character by his lordship.
Catherine Sweeney sworn.—l lived at Lord Galmoy's
about a year ago. I was servant there. I saw Ellen Burke
there. I heard she was married by a " Tackem." She was
called Lady Galmoy, and lived there as Lord Galmoy's wife.
At times they were good and at times very bad friends. (A
laugh.) She used to be drunk. He used to call her Ellen,
but in speaking to us he used to style her Lady Galmoy. I
often saw fire-arms in his lordship's hands, but never saw
him ill-use Lady Galmoy. I saw her once going for a knife
to stab herself, and he prevented her. She used to be jea-
lous of another girl, Catherine Delany, and of another named
Eliza Frizell. They all lived at Garrendenny. She was a
great drunkard. They all got drunk one night, and his
lordship put them out of the castle. (Laughter.) lam now
living in the castle, but I will go to America. I got the mo-
ney for my passage from Eliza Frizell, one of Lord Galmoy's
" ladies." I once saw Ellen Burke black and blue, but that
might have been occasioned by a fall, as she was always
drunk. I know Paddy Lynop the piper ;he used to be
playing in the parlour. We used all to take a drop as well
as his lordship. (Laughter.) I used to dance with him.
We used all to be drunk except Paddy the piper, who was a
sort of teetotaller. (Great laughter.) Lord Galmoy sent
his carriage for her to Kilkenny.
Mr. Phelan addressed the court at considerable length,
and with great ability. He lamented that a gentleman of
Lord Galmoy's station should be so infatuated as to come in
contact with the wretched woman Ellen Burke, who would
be proved to be a native of Walkin's Lough, Kilkenny, a
place noted for filth and prostitution. This was an abortive
attempt to fasten a woman of that description on an ancient
estate, and to injure the family of Lord Galmoy's brother,
the Hon. William Butler, as high-minded, upright, and truly
honourable a man as ever breathed. The parties, Ellen
Burke and Molly Power, her mother, knew his lordship's
propensities, and they set off from Kilkenny to Garrendenny
Castle. Molly Power, known as Mother Power, addressed
his lordship about her daughter—the bargain was soon made
—the old wretch pocketed a 1:5 note, the wages of iniquity,
and left her daughter with his lordship. Ellen Burke told
his lordship a story about being the daughter of a peer, and
that she was induced to escape from her lordly father to visit
Lord Galmoy, of whose romantic character she had often
heard—(great laughter)—and thus, after a fortnight spent in
drinking, debauchery, and dissipation, his lordship's mind
broke down and he consented to marry her, which ceremony
was performed by a " couple beggar." After commenting on
the character of Ellen Burke, and on the conduct of the
parties who got up the action, he concluded a powerful ap-
peal, by imploring his lordship not to sanction the claims of
Ellen Burke, nor give them the weight of his authority
pending the proceedings which had been instituted in the
Ecclesiastical Court.

Frances Rothe sworn.—l live in Kilkenny, and am a mar-
ried woman. 1 know Ellen Burke. I know her mother;
she is called Mother Power; all the world knows her. (Laugh-
ter.) She is in the habit of going of messages from the wo-
men to the barracks. Ellen lodged with me about three years
ago. Her mother came and said, " Ellen, if 1 could get your
clothes out of pawn, I'd try and get you married to Lord
Galmoy." (Great laughter.) Mother Power is an old pro-
curess, and keeps an infamous house at Walkin's Lough, and
her mother before her. (Laughter.) After Ellen Burke
left Lord Galmoy, she came to me to lodge. While passing
a bad public-house, kept by a man named 'lab?, she said she
would go in ; and I advised her not to do so. She then took
off her boots, shawl, and bonnet, and danced with the sol-
diers. (Laughter.) Her ladyship danced a " treble" horn-
p;pe in the tap-room. (Laughter.) She got drunk, and lost
her feather coming home, about eleven o'clock at night. I
don't know any thing bad of her, beyond being drunk.
Some further evidence was offered, and his Worship said,
" I have considered this case in all its bearings, and although
I shall not give any opinion whatsoever upon the legality or
illegality of the alleged marriage between the defendant and
the unfortunate woman, still 1 conceive that having treated
her as his wife, and repi4sented her in that capacity to a re-
spectable tradesman, 1 think that circumstance would have
been sufficient to make the defendant liable, if the case
rested there ; but the case did not rest there. While living
at the house of the defendant this woman appears to have
had the concern in commotion, and finally left the house
of her own accord, and without being compelled by any
act of cruelty or severity on the part of the defendant, and
departed with her mother, this Mary Power, to Kilkenny,
the scene of her former misconduct, and then resumed
her former course of life as has been deposed to by the woman
Rothe, and the man Nash. No doubt, if after all this, and
long after it, she wished to return to the defendant's dwelling,
1 admit she might do so by becoming prudent and amending
her life, and that the defendant consented to overlook her
misconduct ; but it does not appear that the defendant so
consented; on the contrary, he sent a police constable to
remove her from his premises, whereto she went without his
knowledge. Yet, after all this, the whole facts being noto-
rious in the neighbourhood, the plaintiff thinks proper to
give this woman credit to a large amount, and lie must be
considered as having had knowledge of the facts ; for the very
order for the goods he (plaintiff) had witnessed by two per-
sons, the name of one of whom was afterwards, for some reason
or other, torn off. I shall forbear to make further comment
upon this affair, but I should say, the plaintiff is not without
remedy against some one;" and he then pronounced formally
to dismiss on the merits in all the cases.

THE LAST DIVISION ON SIR R. PEEL'S INCOME TAX.
—The remark of an eminent leading character, that " he had
heard many debates that had changed his opinion, but never
one that had changed his vote," appears to be by no means a
fixed political axiom, and the following members are living
proofs of its incorrectness, having reversed their votes since
the last division on this question :—E. R. Rice, W. S.
Blackstone, and Lord Worsley.
Three destructive fires occurred in London on Tuesday
last. One, on the premises, belonging to Messrs. Sibley and
Toyer, coal-merchants, High-street. The premises were
destroyed. Shortly afterwards three houses, adjoining the
Nile Hotel, caught fire, but the loss will not be very great.
About an hour and a half afterwards a third destructive fire
broke out in High-street, Shadwell, on the premises in the
Occupation of Mr. Smith. The premises are wholly con-
sumed, but are insured.
AN ACCESSION TO PARLIAMENT.—The public complain
of the great length of the debates in parliament. For their
comfort we havto inform them that their cause of com-
plaint stands a ;air chance of being increased tenfold, seeing

MISCELLANEOUS

Mr. Joseph Hume has been returned for the Montrose
Boroughs without opposition.

On Friday evening last, seven valuable horses were suffo-
cated in a stable at Staines, near London, by smoke caused
by the place having by some means caught ffre.
Captain R. A. Reynolds has been restored to his rank in
the 11th Hussars. He will proceed with the regiment to

One of the passengers on the Midland Counties Railway
was accidentally killed at the junction where the Nottingham
line runs into the main line from Rugby.
The fruit-growers of East Kent have memorialised the
Board of Trade for an increase of duties to be levied on all
foreign fruits.

CARDIGAN ELECTION PETITION. --The Committee have
come to the conclusion that J S. Harford, Fsq., was not
duly elected ; but that Pryse Pryse, Esq. ought to have been
returned.

On Tuesday afternoon last, at Nassington, near Staneford,
a sow entered the dwelling of a poor man, where was only an
infant three months old. The voracious brute tore it so
dreadfully that it died in about half an hour ; and it would
no doubt have been eaten up, had not the mother returned.
At the levee, on Wednesday, the Duke of Argyll kissed
hands, upon his grace's appointment as Keeper of the Seal
used in place of the Great Seal of Scotland, which appoint-
ment took place in October last.
APPROACHING MARRIAGE IN HIGH LIFE.—We under-
stand that the sister of a noble lord, who has recently taken
his seat in the House of Lords, is about to be united to a
rev. gentleman distinguished for his theological and classical
attainments.—Morning Herald.
THE IRON TRADE.—SOUTH WALES.—Of the 113 fur-
naces in blast in this district, 61 are in full make, and 51 at
the reduction of 25 per cent. The average weekly make may
be taken at 85 tons, thus giving an aggregate make of 6,000
weekly, or 468,000 tons per annum.—Shrewsbury Chronicle.
WIGNEY'S BANKRUPTCY.—In consequence of a quantity
of plate and other valuables having been found secreted in
the house of one of the bankrupts, bills were posted through
Brighton cautioning persons against concealing the bank-
rupt's goods, as they thereby incurred a penalty of £lOO.
On Tuesday last her Majesty's ship Investigator, which
is used as a station for the Thames police, and which has
been lying in the Thames, off Somerset-house, for the last
five years, sprang a leak and foundered. She went down
about two o'clock in the morning, but, fortunately, the peo-
ple on board and all the movable articles were taken off be-
fore she sank.
On Monday the Bussorah Merchant, 531 tons, and with
250 troops ; the Glenelg, 867 tons, 300 troops ; Royal Con-
sort, 529 tons, 170 troops ; and the Helen Thomson, 544
tons, 160 troops, sailed for India. The three divisions of the
25th regiment of foot mustering nearly 1,300 effective men,
mostly young and fine looking fellows, have embarked from
Chatham for the same quarter.
DEATH OF EARL LUDLOW.—This gallant and venerable
general expired at his seat near Bedford, on Saturday last,
at the advanced age of 83. His lordship served in the Ame-
rican war, and has distinguished himself on many occasions.
He was the senior knight grand cross of the Bath, with the
exception of the Duke of Wellington. The title is now ex-
tinct.

BRIBERY AT SUDBURY.-It is in contemplation among
the electors of Sudbury, in the event of the borough being
disfranchised, to call a Meeting to petition Parliament for
compensation for the loss they will sustain by a deprivation
of that which they have been always taught to regard as a
prescriptive right—namely, the privilege of selling their
elective franchise to the highest bidder.—Globe.
It has been formally intimated to the Duke of Bucking-
ham, that Chandos-house will be given up by Prince Ester-
hazy at Michaelmas next. This decision is much regretted
by the higher circles of society, this splendid residence
having been for 25 years the scene, not only of the most
splendid, but of the most refined and cordial hospitality of
the exalted representative of His Imperial Majesty.

LONGFORD ELECTION.—The committee appointed to in-
quire into this election have reported that Luke White, Esq.
had not been duly elected for the county of Longford, and that
Anthony Lefroy ought to have been returned. This is a
gain of two votes on a division to the conservatives. The
committee also reported that it was absolutely necessary to
pass without delay some declaratory act with respect to the
question of opening the registry in Ireland.
THE NEW TARIFF.—Prime bacon is now selling at Cow-
bridge at 7d. per lb. retail. The price, a month or five weeks
ago, was 10d. Butter, beef, mutton, and veal, are lower by
2d. per lb. than they were three months ago
,in the same
market. The farmers appear very anxious to sell their fat
stock, but they can find no purchasers. At two of our
neighbouring fairs this week there was not a single dealer
present.—Swansea paper.

Beaumont Smith, the convict, who was sent to her Majes-
ty's Royal Arsenal, Woolwich, and removed from there on
board a transport, was double-ironed for some time, till
Surgeon Hope, of the convict establishment, ordered them
to be taken off on account of the bad state of his health. He
left in the greatest penury, and seemed to suffer acutely the
degraded situation he had placed himself in. The utmost
sympathy was felt for him among the other unfortunate
convicts there.

SUDBURY AND BIRMINGRAI4.—The whig-radicals and
and ex-chartists of Birmingham, in anticipation of the dis-
franchisement of Sudbury, are already beginning to calculate
upon obtaining a third member for the hardware borough.
In the Muntz and Scholefield organ, of the other day, it was
gravely intimated that if the Conservatives would assist them
in securing one of the Sudbury seats to Birmingham, they,
the whig-i adicals, would, by way of compromise, consent to
the return of one tory representative for Birmingham ! What
next?
OTTER HUNT.—On Thursday afternoon last, as James

Helme, gamekeeper to George Wilson, Esq., Dallam Tower,

. - . . .
Milnthorpe, with one or two little Terrier dogs, was walking
round the preserves upon Milnthorpe Marsh, he met with a
large otter, which the little dogs gave chase to ; the " var-

mint" entered a drain, but the do;s would not give up their
game, but followed after, and drove him out, when the
keeper shot him dead. The animal weighed upwards of
221bs.—Kendal Mercury.
LANCASTER. AND NEWCASTLE.-The Lord Exmouth

stage coach was last week converted into a mail, and now
runs between Lancaster and Newcastle, receiving and deliver-
ing letters at the various post tovi ns through which it passes.
It is the first mail coach that ever passed through Sedbergh,
&c. ; and the inhabitants of these towns, who get their let-
ters several hours sooner than heretofore, find the new
arrangement a great accommodation.—Lancaster Guardian.
It is a curious circumstance, and one highly creditable to
the corporation of London as well as to the several guilds and
public companies in connexion with it, that, liberal and ra-
dical though many of them be, and anxious as they all were
on every former occasion to pay respect and attention, and to

extend courtesy and hospitality to deputations from the Dub-
lin corporation, headed by its lord mayor—not the slightest
notice or recognition was evinced towards Mr. O'Connell
and his civic tail on their recent visit to London.—Dublin
Evening Mail.

Two Theological Professorships have been recently insti-
tuted by the crown in the University of Oxford, and a
temporary endowment of the professors, until canonries of
Christ Church shall fall vacant, to be permanently attached
to the professorships, has been provided by the University.
We understand that Sir Robert Peel has presented the Pro-

fessorship of Ecclesiastical History to the:Rev. Mr. Hussey.

of Christ Church, late censor of this college ; and the PrO-
fessorship of Pastoral Theology to the Rev. Mr. Ogilvie, of
Balliol College, Rector of Ross. The Marquis of Bute will
be appointed her Majesty's Commissioner to the General
Assembly of the Church of Scotland.—'Times.
MONTHLY RETURN.—Account of the average aggregate
amount of promissory notes payable to bearer on demand
which have been in circulation in the United Kingdom, dis-
tinguishing those circulated by the Bank :of England, by
private banks, and by joint-stock banks in England and
Wales ; by the banks in Scotland ; by the Bank of Ireland,
and by all other banks in Ireland; and of the average amount

General Browne Clayton, who commanded the 11th Light
Dragoons at Alexandria in 1801, has erected a splendid granite
column (a fac-simile of Pompey's Pillar) at Carrich-a-Dagon,
in the county of Wexford, in commemoration of the victories
in Egypt in that year, and the deeds of the heroic Aber-
cromby. The gallant general has also, in his will, bequeathed
a sum of money to be applied to the observance of the fol-
lowing ceremony. On the morning of the 21st of March
(the day on which General Menon attacked the British en-
campment before Alexandria), the tri-coloured flag is to be
hoisted at sunrise at the top of the column, where it is to re-
main until ten o'clock ; it is then to be replaced by the
British flag, which is to remain there until sunset. The
general has further directed, that on the 28th of March the
British flag shall be hoisted half-mast high, in honour of Sir
Ralph Abercromby, who, having been mortally wounded on
the 21st, died on the 28th of March, 1801.

Mr. Steill, a publisher in Paternoster-row, London, has
put forth a circular address to the common council of Lon-
don. expressing his opinion that their late town .clerk was too
highly paid, and offering to take all the duties and dignities
of that office upon himself for consideration of one-fourth
the former allowance—viz., £5OO per annum, instead of
£2000; and he reminds them that in case they accept his
offer, they have £l5OO to bestow in charity. We hear, how-
ever, that Mr. Steill is not likely to be accepted—should the
common council he guided strictly by the money-saving
principle, inasmuch as there is another candidate for the
office who says he will be satisfied with only £2OO a year,
and a pint of wine per day. But the patriotism of these gentle-
men is nothing compared to that of the late William Cobbett
the corn-cob political essayist, who wrote to George the
Fourth, offering to take the post of Prime Minister for no
other remuneration than his bread and cheese

BRISTOL, APRIL 18.—Upwards of fifty persons employed
in the postoffice department have been detected, during the
last three months, purloining letters of value. The principal
number of letters stolen now are those containing jewellery.
A clerk in the General Postoffice was committed to Newgate
last week, on whose person three letters containing jewellery
were found secreted. This individual used to despatch the
mails for the South of England, from which mails a very
large number of letters have been extracted during the last
six months. The president of the stolen-letter department
has a number of assistants constantly engaged in tracing the
particular office in which letters are stolen. Several hun-
dreds of cases of lost letters have been sometimes reported
to the Postmaster-General in a single day. The legal ex-
penses incurred in prosecuting postoffice criminals amounted
last year to above £10,000; and it is calculated that property,

THE PAST AND PRESENT CORN BlLL.—Twenty-seven
years ago the Earl of Ripon—then Mr. Frederick Robinson
--introduced into and carried through the House of Com-
mons the original corn bill ; on Tuesday night the Earl of
Ripon moved the second reading of the new corn bill. The
events of those seven-and-twenty years have certainly made
a wonderful change in the commercial policy of this as in-
deed of most countries ; and the man whose opinions have
remained altogether stationary during that period would most
assuredly travel from Dan to Beersheba and exclaim " all is
barren !" The advocates of extreme protection to domestic
agriculture thought that the corn law of 1815 would not give
sufficient protection to native cultivation. They were mis-
taken ; under its operation the people were sufficiently fed,
and agriculture kept its foremost place amongst the national
interests. The same class of politicians protested that the
corn law of 1822 would ruin the British farmer; again they
were wrong ; the culture of our native soil flourished in
spite of the alteration. The corn law of 1828 met with op-
position from the like quarter on the same grounds; yet
British agriculture still survives—nay, has since then greatly
advanced in prosperity. The unfulfilled apprehensions of
the past ought surely to lessen the dreaded anticipations of
the future.
