MELANCHOLY CIRCUMSTANCE.—La3t week, at the Biocide)! Almshouse. a young woman committed suicide by taking arsenic. The following note, found upon the tablein her room, explains the cause of her unfortunate end :—" Let no one attempt to use any cup, tumbler, or spoon on this table. This is to inform all who may see it, that no one is chargeable with my death—that is, with having in any form murdered me—l die by my Own hand. I have been the victim of a cruel deceiier: who, after  leading: me Into the greatest distress, has left me des. or money, friends, and clothes. I know not ich way to turn.

An address from Mr. O'Connell appeared to-day, which is full of exhortations to peace and order. In the corporation, yesterday, Mr. O'Connell, instead  of the original notice of motion which he had given, " 'To submit to the consideration of the council the insult offered to the Lord Mayor and to the corporation, and the danger arising to the citizens at large by means of the issuing of an illegal proclamation, and by a total disregard of the Lord Mayor's undoubted power and willingness to keep the peace within the city.' " moved the following milk and water resolution : " ' That we deem the transmission of the proclamation to the Lord Nlitvor about the hour of four o'clock on Satin-day, the ith of October instant, to prevent a meeting to be held on the next day, too late for the purposes of due caution, and especially too late for him to warn the citizens of Dublin of the impending peril.'" which was carried by a majority of 38 to 9, despite of a most able and sarcastic speech by Alderman Butt; the discussion, however, shews that after all, the charges of insult and illegality which the learned gentleman was to have established, have deviated down to this; not that what the Government did was illegal, and was an insult, hut that it ought to have been done long before, which is just what almost every conservative journal in the kingdom has been dinning into their ears for the last six months ; in the meantime, in proportion as the agitators find their hold upon the affections of the people vitally assailed, so they redouble their efforts to excite. Notwithstanding the tranquil aspect of affairs, the military precautions which have been taken in order to prevent any sudden outbreak, are not in the slightest degree relaxed In Limerick pr  arations  making for the reception  . . of 1000 additional men. Mr. Keith's stores at Mount Kennett have been taken for their accommodation, and one of the workhouses is about to be applied to a similar purpose, and a considerable naval force will be assembled in the Shannon, under the command of Captain Austin, C.B.  Aldborough house, a spacious residence near the outskirts of Dublin, on the Clontarf road, is undergoing the necessary alterations to enable it to accommodate troops,  the Four' Court.,, called Horne's Hotel, is, itis said, to be converted to the same use. Large placards are posted through the town, calling on all the outpensioners of Chelsea hospital in Dublin to attend on certain days next week to be examined for the purpose of being embodied in local companies, and all who shall not attend are warned that if they do not satisfactorily account for their absence their pensions will be •stopped. Three half-pay officers have been struck off the list for joining the repeal movement.
