MIR. Pattison, the free trade, anti-corn
law league candidate, has been elected
to Parliament from the city Of London,
over MIR. Barring, the ministerial candi-
date. The vote stood for Mr.. Patlison
6552, for Mr.. Baling G387 majority for
Pattison 1866. This success ofthe league
in the metropolis is regarded AS great
triumph, and one which will exert an ex-
tensive moral effect.
The Queen and Prince Albert have
visited Oxford, where they were received

The steam packet Acadia arrived at

There was a severe storm in tho Irish
Channel, Oh the 29lh ult. which proved
destructive to the shipping.
In Ireland affairs are peaceable. The
repeal movement gses on, and the rent
pours in weekly, but no forcible measures
have been adopted on either side. Great
numbers Of troops are quartered in Ire
land, and the most extensive preparations
have been made oy government to put
down any attempt at violence.
Judge Burton had delivered his charge
to the Grand Jury, the general tone Of
which is decidedly in favor Of the
charges which have been preferred by
The Government against AIR. O'Connell
and tho rest OF the repealcrs, for "con-
spiracy and other nIsdemeaEors."
As the Judge is what is termed a econ
stiiu,ional lawyer" the tone of his charge
has some What alarmed the repeal party.
The indictments, it is said, covered 81
pages of parchment, and occupied seven
~ hours in reading.
The latest accounts from Ireland state
that the parties are preparing for their de-
fence-lhat Mr.. O'Connell will defend
himself-and that Mr. Steele will con,-
pei the attendance OF Sir Robert Peel,
the Duke Of Wellington, LORD Lyndhurst,
and other distinguished members Of the
| government as Witnesses.
/ A, the time we write, il is not known
whether the Grand Jury bad found true
bills against the parties, but not the least
doubt existed that they would do so, from
the fact apart from other reasons-that
the jury is composed Of eighteen Tories
to six Liberals, and, with regard to the
finding of Grand Jurics, the majority

rumor of the day is, that traitors have
mado their appearance in the Repeal
Camp, and that some OF the association

Government, in order to ensure the con
vic,on of their fellows This may or
may not be true but it is currently re-
ported in Dublin, and generally believed
effect on both sides of the Channel. -
Had the rumor merely applied TO the
members of the association, which amount
to thilty-four thousand, it would not have
appeared SO startling, but the on dH is,
that the "trhilois" belong to the com
mittce or executive branch of the Repeal
| Association In the event Of true bills
Dclng Iound, Ine accused, SO NOiUminOus
is tho indictment, will ask for time to
plead, and perhaps several days will
elapse before the prosecutions formally
commence. The number of Govetpmcnt
Witnesses, in attendance on the grand
Jury, amoun. to thirty five 1t is further
stated that the Government have add
tonal evidence IN the back ground, which
will not be forthcoming till the proper
time. The next packet will, in all pro-
liability, carry oui the result Of the State
prosecutions.
| Repeal meetings have been held in
different wards of Dublin, aud resolutions
passed in support Of MIR. O'ConnclI.
II Mr.. O'Connell has issued new ad-
dress to the people of Ireland, cxhoriug
them to pcrsevcre in all constitutional
