DISTRESSING CASUALTY.

On the Evening of the 9TH, inst, three sons
of MIR. Peter Culbert, Rope Manufacturer Of
this town, the oldest only fourteen years Of
age, were drowned near the residence of Mr..
Culbert, about two miles south of this village.
The oldest lad skating upon small mill pond
on the Shelburn road, and accidentally skating
into an open spot, where the water was or
10 feet deep. The two younger brothers, in
attempting to pull him out, were both drawn
into the water, where they all persisted. The
bodies have since been recovered. An afflict-
ed father and mother are thus left to mourn
the untimely loss of three promising children,
their only sons. Such an affective stroke of
Providence must call forth the sympathies and
coincidence of all who hear of this melancbolv
bereayement.-Bur Sentinel.

and scarlet alternately, so as to conceal
every thing but the bell. Over the top
where the beams all united was splendid
crown of roses and other bright leaved
flowers, Immediately under which project
ed spars to each side of the church, sup
porting the Union Jack, and flags with re-
iigious devices, one of which contained a
representation of St Jean Baptiste, to whom
the bell was to be dedicated, and whose
name it is to bear.
On either side the framework was flank
ed by small pines, of which the deep green
harmonised and contrasted beautifully with
the variegated hues of the surrounding
decorations, and the drapery worn by the
priests. Small flags also, of white, green
and red, were projected from them on tiny
slaves, on the right and left, on which were
emblems done in gold, several of the green
bearing the harp and shamrock of Ireland.
After singing the Misericordia," a
priest delivered an address, first in English
and then in French-but we remarked that
the English one was a calm discourse,
showing the antiquity and Illustrating the
benefit of ceremonies, while the latter was
warm appeal to the religious feelings of
his hearers.
The Bishop, having changed his mitre,
apparently of cloth of gold, for one of pure
white, then came forward with the priests
and sprinkled the bell outside and inside
with holy water he then retired, and sew
eral priests came forward and washed it
with napkins dipped in consecrated water.
After singing, the Bishop again advanc-
ed and marked the sign of the cross at diff
ferent places on the outer surface. While
the Bishop knelt in prayer at the altar the
choir again sang and continued the chaunt,
as he again approached the bell, and an
ointed it with oil, outside and inside. All
again proceeded to the altar, and after a
short prayer by the Bishop cloud of in
cense assembled, and priest with censor
fumigated the bell. The Bishop then WHIP
ed off the oil, the choir burst forth again,
and incense was thrown in clouds, which
filled the church with perfume.
The Bishop, having assumed the mitre
he wore at first, and surrounded by the
priests, advanced to the godfathers and
godmothers, to whom he spoke few words.
He then took the rope which was attached
to the tongue, and struck one blow, the
godfathers and godmothers followed his ex-
ample, and after he had returned under the
canopy, such others of the congregation as
chose, both men and women, rang single
toll upon the consecrated instrument
Thus concluded the benediction, but the
tolls 1--WE understand every one who tolled
made an offering in money! continued long
after the Bishop and priests had retired
from the altar and the church.

The steps that preceded the arrest OF
OConnell were as follows: A great meet
ing had been announced to be held at
Clontarf on Sunday, the 9Th ult. 1t was
expected to be one of the largest meetings
ever held in Ireland. De Gray, Lord
Lieutenant of Ireland, issued a proclama-
ton forbidding it, on the ground of its be-
ing seditious, illegal, &c. A Committee
of the Repeal Association was Immediately
called, and, on the advice of OConnell,
the meeting at Clontarf countermanded
The proclamation Of O'Connell requesting
the Irish to abstain from assembling at
Clontarf, and submit peacefully to the au-
thorities, was accompanied with every eff
lect to prevent them coming together. On
Sunday all the guards of the city were
doubled, and at 10 o'clock the whole gar
rison was drawn up at Clontarf At every
corner were excited multitudes reading the
Lord Lieutenant'sp proclamation and o. Con-
nelPs notice The streets were thronged
with men driven hither and thither by the
troops, canhons were loaded, and their
muzzles pointed towards Dublin and the
matches fizzing.
But the people, it is said, did not fear
them much, but tainted them with in
sulting the people" In the midst of the
people in car rode Mr.. Thomas Steele,
head Pacificator in Ireland, bearing a
green branch and reiterating the word
home,' The crowd slowly moved off,
This was on the 9Th. On the 9th and I1th
great repeal meetings were held in Dublin,
at which Mr.. O'Connell presided.
On the 18th, nearly week after the
proclamation, O'Connell was arrested
We are informed, says the Limerick
Chronicle, that it is the determination of
government to prosecute Mr.. O'Connell in
the Court of Queens Bench, for seditious
language. The indictment is now being
prepared by Mr.. Kemmis, Crown Solicitor,
under the advice of the Crown lawyers in
London and Dublin. The materials for
this proceeding were furnished, it is thought,
by the Language used at the Mullaghmast
epeal meeting.-N Y Tribune.

GREECE.

The Malta papers have intelligence from
Athens of the 22d Setember. On that day
the Princess of Odenburg, sister of the
Queen of Greece, embarked in an Austrian
steamer, with Baron Hesse and about sixty
Bavarians, recently dismissed from civil and
military Offices. King Ohio and his Queen
took leave on board. The war ships in the
Pir@us saluted the parting steamer, and the
people kept up succession of cheers, with
cries Of Long live the constitution" On
arriving at Pairas. the princess, hearing
some ilI-feeling excited, would not disem-
bark. Her doctor, however was not so pru-
dent, but landed in full uniform, with several
Bavarian decorations on his breast. He
was obliged again to seek refuge on board,
having been stoned and booted.
Letters from Athens Of the 3Oih Sept,
have reached US. The elections were TO

observed in The caihed raj church, in com.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.

Our city was visited this morning by the
most destructive conhagration that has hap
pened for many years. The entire range
of buildings from the alley west of the
Third Church, round the corner to some
distance up South St. Paul street, are a
heap Of ruins. The fire was discovered
about halfpast two, and ragged with una
bated fury for two hours. The number Of
buildings destroyed is between twenty and
twenty-five. Owing to the lateness of the
hour, we are only able to give the names
of the most prominent sufferers. The
fire originated in the grocery store of ].
Shaw, who, with his little boy jumped from
the 2nd story window.
