Alderman Humphrey was elected Lord Mayor of London
on Thursday. Alderman Thomas Wood, against whom there
are certain charges alleged, was rejected, although in point

THE GROCERS V. THE Excise.—Notices of action have
been served upon Mr. Pape, collector of excise, at the suit
of Mr. Fox Dixon, for overcharge in the cost of licenses.

excise would be, of right, returned, and they amount to very
nearly half a million.—Dublin Freeman s Journal.
PROPAGATION OF POPERY,—The sums extracted by
foreign priests from the wretchedly impoverish.ed inhabitants
of Ireland, for the Romish propaganda, are quite marvellous.
There really ought to be a re-inactinent of some of the old

This, together with the repeal extortions and other such
works, is pretty well. The truth is, that Rome gathers her
taxes here now much more boldly than England.—London.
