-—————————- MRS. CAUDLE'S CURTAIN LECTURES. MRS. CAUDLE AT HERNE BAY. Caudle, have you looked under the bed ? What for ? Bless the man! Why, for thieves, to be sure. Do you suppose I'd sleep in a strange bed without ? Don't tell me it's nonsense! I shouldn't sleep a wink without. Not that you care for that; not that you'd—hush! I'm sure I hear somebody. No; it's hot, a bit like a mouse. Yes that's like you; laugh! It would be no laughing matter if—I'm sure there is somebody! I'm sure there is Yes, Mr. Caudle; now I am satisfied. Any other man would have got up and looked himself; especially after my sufferings on board that nasty ship. But catch yon stirring! Ob, no! You'd let me lie here and be robbed and killed, tor whai you'd care. Why you're not going to sleep What do you say ? It's the strange uir-ulld you' e always sleepy in a strange ait ? That shewL the feelings you have, after what I've gone through. And yawning, too, in that brutal manner, Caudle, you've no more heart than that wooden figure in a petticoat at the front of the ship. "No; I couldn't leave my temper at home. I dare say; Because for once in your life you've brought me out—yes, I say once, or two or three times, it isn't morej^Jkecause, as Isay, you once bring me out, I'm to be a sls^F and say nothing. Pleasure, indeed! A great deal of pleasure I'm to have, if I'm to hold my tongue. A nice way that of pleasing a woman. Dear me! it the bed doesn't spin round and dance about! I've got all that filthy ship in my head No; I shan'tbe well in the morning. But nothing ever ails anybody but yourself. You needn't groan in that way, Mr. Caudle, disturbing the people, perhaps, in the next room. It's a mercy I'm alive, I m sure. If OUCH I wouldn't have given all the world for a^jrbod^ to have thrown me overboard! vWhat are you smacEing your lips at, Mr. Caudle? But I know what you mean—of course, vou'd never have stirred to stop 'em; not you. And then you might have known that the wind would have blown to-day; but that's why you camc. "Whatever I should have done if it hadn't been for that good soul -that blessed Captain Large! I'm sure all the women who go to Margate ought to pray tor him so attentive in sea sickness, and so much of a gentleman How I should have got downstairs without him when I first began to turn, I dont know. Don't tell me I never complained to you—you might have seen I was ill. And when everybody was looking like a bad wax-candle, you could walk about, and make what you call your jokes upon the little boy that was never sick at the Nore, and such unfeeling irash. Yes, Caudle we've now been married many years, but if we were to live together for a thousand years to come—what a re youcJasping your hands 'at ?—a thousand yetn-s to Come, I say, I shall never forget your conduct this day. You coiild go to the other end of the ship and smoke a cigar, when You knew I should be iII-oh, you knew it; for I always am. -j The brutal way too in which you took that cold brandy-aud-water—you thought I didn't see you but ill as I was, hardly able to hold mv head up, 1 was washing you all tue time. Three.glasees of cold braudy-and-water; andyot .sipped 'em, and drank the health of people vob didn't care a pin about; whilst the health' of your own lawful wife was. nothing. The glasses of brandy- ana-water, and I left—as I may say—alone! You didn't hear 'em, but everybody was crying shame of you. What dcFYO\1 say? A good deal my own fault? I took too much dinner .Well, vou are a man! If I took more than the breast and the leg of that young goose—a thing, I may say, just out of the shell—with the slightest bit of stuffin, I'm a wicked woman. What do you say ? Lobster salad ? La !— how can you speak of it ? A month old baby would have eaten more. What ? Gousebernj pit 1 Well, if you'll name that you'll name anything. Ate too much, indeed Do you think I was going to pay for a dinnoi, and eat nothing ? 'No, Mr. Caudle; it's a good thing for you that I know a little more of the value of money than that. But, of course, you were better engaged than attending to me. Mr. Prettymancame on board at Gravesend. A planned thing, of course. You think I didn't see him give you a letter. It wasn't a letter; it was a nempuper ? I dare say; ill as I was, I had my eyes. It was the smallest newspaper I ever saw, that's all. But of course, a letter from Miss Prettyman. -Now, Candle, if you begin to cry o-it in that manner, 1'11 get up. Do you forget that you're not at yuar own house? making that iioise! Disturbing every' ody Why we shall have the landlord up And you couM smoke and drink forward" as you called it. What? You con tdiCt smoke anywhere else That's nothing to do with it. Yes forward. What a pity that Miss Pretty- man wasn't with you. I'm sure nothing could be too forward torher. No; I won't hold my tongue; a,,d j ought not to be ashamed of myself. It isn't treason, is it, to speak of Miss Prettyinan ? After all I ve suffered to-day, and I'm not to open my lips? Yes; I'm to be brought away from my own home, dragged down here to the sea side, and made ill; and I'm not to speak. I should like to know what next. a It's a mercy that some of our dear children were not drowned not that their father would have cared, so long as he could have hadjife hcandy and cigars. Peter was as near through one of the hojei 83-^ft's- .I*'3 very well for you to say so, but yon know what an Inquisitive boy he is, and how he likes to wahder among steam-eogmes. No, I won't let you sleep. What a man you ,W,!}8.t? I've suid that before1 'i /.1 j lh £ t s no matter; 1'11 ray it again. Go to sleep, indeed! as if I one covla never have a little rational conversation. No, I shan't j be too late for the Margate boat in the momiug; I can wake up at what hour I like, and you ought to know that by this time. A miserable creature they must have thought me in the ladies' cabin, with nobody coming down to see how I was, Yon came a dozen times ? No, Caudle, that won't do. I know better. You never came at all. Oh no! cigars and brandy took all your attention. And when I was so ill, that I didn't know a single thing that was going on about me, and you never came. Every other woman's husband was there—ha! ,twenty times. And what must have been my feelings to hear |em tapping at the door, and making all sorts of kind inquiries \-something like husbands !—and I wa3 left to be ill alone ? and you want to get me into an argument.

That's just like your "toting way; but I'm not to be caught in that manner, No." {very possible," writes Caudle, that she talked two ye; but happily the wind got suddenly up—the yiwed—and, soothed by the sweet lullaby (to say i the Dolphin's brandy-and-water) I somehow fell ranch:

I., Af'jTBaa DARING RojiBiiRY.—On Tuesd ay fijr. a most daring and impudent robbery was committed at the shop ol Mr. B. Hennessey, watehtnakerand jeweller, Swansea. Itappeated thai f'/etween three and four o'clock on the afternoon of that day, Mrs. Hennessey, who attended the business instead of her husband, who wasconnned to his bed owing to severe illness, went upstairs for a few minutes. During her a'osenee from the shop, some ex- pert thief, who, undoubtedly, had been for some time watching his opportunity, 'entered the shop, opened the inside glssscase of the window, a ad carried away a. lady's gold lever watch, with gold dial, of ';be value of gvineas, having engraved in the usual place mstde, the maker's name, "Hennessey, 8, Wine- street, Swan jea;" also two siltttr cases ready for the works, one of which ,s a double-botfoafod hunter, large size, engine- turned, an .ton the other waa stamped the number 220. and L. D., the maker's initials.—Cambrian. CARRVKR PIGEONS AT LIVBRPOOL RACES.—Almost imme. dimtely after the race for tho cup, on Thursday laat, a number of carrier pigeons were set «tu liberty from several places io the victo jty of the judge's chair and the weighing-hut. We had an opportunity of observing them from the summit of the Grand Stand. They immediately towered to a moderate height, as i '■cared by the immense and moving multitude below, and, after having taken a few circles in the air, stooped towards the grand stand, around and closely over which they continued to fly rapidly for some time. Occasionally, when they took a sudden turn and balanced themselves for a moment io their Bigbt, the missives tied uader their wings were distinctly visible, strongly illuminated by the bright sunlight. After the lapse of five or ten minutes, two of them stretched away in a zig zag flight to a considerable distance, and again returned towards the stand, as if making it the object from which to mark their line of departure. This was repeated several times. At length these two pigeons, after a more lengthened inegular flight over the fields directly facing the atand, stretched away in the direction of Manchester, which, we have no doubt, was the place of their destination. Two others continued their evolutions round the stand during, perhaps, ten minutes longer, and then suddenly darted a way io a south-easterly direction. One dark mottled bird continued to fly rather wildly; round the stand about an hour, and then it also flew off towards the south-east.—Liverpool paper. THE GnAT BRITAIN STEAM-SHIP.—This magnificent vessel, since her arrival at Liverpool, haa been visited by upwards of twenty-five thousand persons. On Saturday week the number was eleven thousand, and last week, though she was not on view on one of the days, that number was increased by about fourteen thousand. The vessel will have to be got ready for ber first Ttansatlactic trip.by Saturday.—Liverpool Albion. EXPERIMENT WITH THE GREAT BRITAIN.—There being a very light spring tide on Saturday, a very short draught of water was necessary in order to get her into the graving dock. After every exertion, by trimming coals, cables, anchors, &c., at seven o'clock on Saturday morning the ship was drawing 14 feet 8 inches all, and 12 feet 6 inches forward. Captain Hosken, seeing this, im- mediately ordered a bolt to be taken out ef the bow. and allowed the foremost compartment to fill with water. This in a short time brought the ship to 14 feet aft, and 13feet ) inch forward, putting her into the trim reqniied, and, at the same time, afford- ing satisfactory prcof of the utility and efficiency of the water- iijiht bulk-heads. Not a drop of water found its way into the adjoining compartment, though not less than 50 tons were allowed to enter at the bow of the vessel.—Liverpool Albion. '.¡ HOUSEBREAKING.—On Friday night last, or rather about'tlpree o'clock- on Saturday morning, some misereaots broke into the houie of a fireman named Jenkin Edmunds, living at Prepant- wyll, near. Meithyr, and stole from a drawer the sum of £40, the hard earnings of tong servitude. There was no one in the house at.ihei time thit Jenkin Edthunds's aged mother, he being work- injij thsv night.- Sheis not able to state who the patliers were, andnocfuehasbeenobtainedofthemBince. T*^q CASES OF HOUSEBREAKING.—Some fellows, on Tuesday) night, brolce ihro the slaughter house of a butcher, named Wm. Ho»ell, living at Pontysioreh^usejr.tye.f.irfjrr/and stole therefrom meat to the v«lue of 40s. A baker's stontn the same neighbour- hood was broken into the same night, aaW lour lirge loaves taken away. The thieves, in this case, had the generosity to leave three loaves behind them, as in the shop of Howelf they left him scales to weigh the meat which had disappeared. No doubt can exist but that the thieves in both instances wete the same, and it is extiemely probable that the evil doers were some of the inhabi- tants of that den of iniquity, the "Cettars," who happened to have a sharp appetite for supper. WILL or THE LATE James WOOD.—At the Town Council meeting on Thursday, the Towo-Clerk mentioned a gratifying piece orintelligence, namely, that the appeal case, the Corpora- tion of Gloucester tI. the Executors of the late James Wood, which, we need hardly lemiod our readers, involves the question of legacies to the amount of J02OO,000 left by the late Mr. James Wood to the corporation, was positively fixed for heating on the 21st inst., in the House of Lotds. This infoimation, after so many years of tedious aod expensive litigation, suggested the confident hope that at length a final judgment would be given io a c«»e s«4oteresi(ng to every 'inhabitant yHtns city aod visions ;0<;bbfoii^h rates diminished, and much needed public improve- ments commenced, fioate'd at once before our imsginatioo. Alas! the law's delay" has not yet terminated-I he passion for re- taining feM and Fefreshers has not yet been sated—the judges of her Majesty's' last. c~uit of appeal will not yet take so good a thing out of the hands of barrisieis, proctors, aDd lawyers and, thetefore, hope deferred" must sii[l continue to make sad theheatta" of the ratepayers of Gloucester. Their lordships have, itsoms, dischaiged the order for hearing on Monday, and it is now unceitain whether the case can come on during tbe pre- sent session the probability, indeed, is quite the other way, and the suit may therefore be supposed to be shelved for at least another year. We do not know whether this untoward hitch is to be attributed io sympathy for the bar, on the psrt of the noble and learned lords, that remembering they bad once "itching palms" themselves for 500 guinea retainers, and £300, £200, and £100 refieshers," they may be indisposed to finally close a case which has been to the learned counsel engaged a perfect and never failing Fortuoatus's purse—or whether the election at Cambridge has anything to do with this postponement of Jusllce; but as the Solicitor-General is in the cause, it may be that the turmoil of contest, and the perturbation caused by tbe blushing honours just awarded to him, may have interfered to prevent his getting ready to appear on Monday, and having friends in court: the suit must stand over till (for him) a more convenient period. Re this as it may, the delay, from whatever cause it arise, is most vexatious, and makes us almost inclined to think with those who denounce the whole legal institutions of the country as a mere complicated piece of machinery for retarding rather than pro- moting equitable decisions, and for ruining suitors in order to enrich the legal profession. At all events, there is a good deal of truth in the remark, that Evils as many and as great belong To judging slowly as to judging wrong," — Gloucester Journal. WOODCHI'STER.-—'This estate, which has been in the market some time, has at last been sold to Mr. Simmonds, a gentleman residing in the manufacturing districts in the north of England. He :s a liberal in politics, and a fiee trader. The purchase money is about 150,000 guineas. Considerable improvements on tbe estate are contemplated.
FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. I
FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. I FRANCE. I *^e h&Ta received the Paris papers of Thursday. The pro- ceedings in (he Chamber of Peers, on Wednesday, were tendered interesting, principally from the explanations given by Marshal Soult, in respect to the recent deplorable massacre ot the Arabs: in the caverns of tks Dahra. In answer to some remarks from the Maiqaess of Boissy, who expressed his regret that a member of the government should have been so hasn ss to disavuw tlie conduct of the officer in command of the troops which attacked the Dabra, withou knowin.' whether he |ia<i not committed the act under some pressing necessity, Marshal Soult said :—•• As to the affair of ihe Dahra, I pray the Chamber to believe ihart in the explanations which I bave already given, I referred only to [ the act itself. One of the most honourable officers in the army, Colonel Pelissier, whose eulogium I shall always willingly make, was placed in a most painful and embarrassing position. lie had to bring into subjection certain iosurdnts, who had a few Hay- before most basely assassinated our soldiers and it was" besides, tbe third or fourth time that this popolation, who alwnys take refuge in caverns, had perpetrated stmHarFacts. In lR42 when Marshal Bugeaud was proceeding through the valley of the Chelif^te pacify the tribes on the right bank of the river, he sent detachments to this same spot, and severaf >bf our soldiers who presented themselves at the entry of the grottoes, to speak ol peace, were received with a discharge of musketry, and the greater number wounded or killed. The next day. when Marshal Bugeaud sent a detachment to sscertain What had become 01 these men, they were found to be all dreadfully mutilated. Last year General Cavaignac, being in the midst of the same tribe, met with similar bad fortune, and his column, being constantly attacked by this tribe, suffered heavy loss. I confess if I hap. penedte be in the same position, I should, perhaps, have done something exceeding severe, for it must net be forgotten that the men under Colonel Pelissiers'command were the same that in 1842 had seen their comrades so cruetty matitated. Is it to be supposed that io such a position men are capable of enough generosity to forget past offences? Frenchmen are too oflen guilty of exaggerating facts, without paying attention to the cir- cumstancesthat cause them, to leave their habitual circle. In Europe such an act as that alluded to would be frightful; in Algeria it finds its explanation and you can never impose on an officer the obligation of not repaying the wrongs which, he may have received. There are certain reflections which it would be prudent to abstain from making, for they always produce a bad effect in the army. The army, and the generals and superior officers commanding it, have duties sufficiently difficult to fulfil, to render it just to estimate fairly their devotedness and their efforts, and as to tbe acta of discipline alluded to, my solici- tude, as Minister of War,fought to be trusted to, particularly as 1 never let any infraction pass without severely punishing it." The Paris papers will not allow any one to find fault with their African barbarities. but themselves. The National, which was most violent in its attacks upon Colonel Pelissier, the butcher of the Ouled-ftihs, i» just as angiy with theLondon papers who took the liberty of expressing their feelings of horror at the transaction. The fairness of the attack we leave our readers to judge of, from tbe following extract from the leading article in the National of Friday :—" We were right in thinking that the London journals would eagerlv seize on the cruel expedition of the Dahra, to induce in odious declamations against the Flench armies, and make th'e apology of those of England. One of iliem, after narrating Ibis terrible drama, asserts, with tiue Britannic self-sufifciency, that such acts cannot take place in the English armies, because their officers are gentlemen of education, and citizens as remarkable for bravery as intelligence, &c. We shall not show wfrat ptide and impertinence there ate in these insinua- tions, but shall merely call to mind, amongst other things, the pelj uries. tbe assassinations, the robbtries that have acquired and preserved the empire of India to Great Britain ihe inhuman complicities of the English leaders, with the Indian tribes, in the war of American independence, and the in'Bmous letters found in the carriage of General Burgoype the savage devastations exercised by the English army, in an allied country, during the precipitate flight of General Moore'tfowards Corunna, and at a later period, during the letieats of Wellington, first in Portugal and next in Spain, after the check at Burgos and, finally, the manifesto of the municipality of St. Sebastian, which will remain as a monument of English barbarity, and of the manner in which they treat even their allies. There does not exist a single nation of whom 'he generals are less sctupulous "hout what are called the necessities of war, and whose military annals aie more sullied with acts of inhumanity and peifidy. And whut is most extraordinary is, that the writeis of no other nation are so much in the habit of coolly boasting of the generosity and great- ness of their military men. Another j uinal, the organ ot Lord Palmersion. with a good taste w«»thv of its pation, has dlade Ihe remark that the expedition i tKel^iiiU bore the date of the battle of Waterloo. For it is w •»•><! alone that persons ran and will remain ignorant »het .ft^.Uah ar«*>«,although supe- rior in numbers, was defe 'ed t ',jt't>i1eis were already given for the retreat, of which the w-re becoming frightful, and that tbe unexpected arri .»! of tV. Prussian army could alone have wrested the victory frorr the v isor/h troops. We shall not say more, for thank God the •i::rr.ar e aDd chivalrous character which always distmgui? e:.1 ■r ij• .ies. has placed them too high to the opinion of impar Europe to allow their reputa- tlon on this point, asoi .f ers, to be the least in the world shaken by attacks die a "narrow and unjust spirit of nationatrivatity." y The National has discovered a case applicable to Ihe subject. It says:-—" It is related by Ludlow, in his memoirs, published at Amsterdam in 1569. This man state", with as much ctolness as if he waa recording aD ordinary incident of warfare, that when charged with the leduction of the Irish rebels, some of them hav. ing taken refuge in a narrow passage, at ihe entrance of a cavern in a rock, and tbe rock being of such thickness that <t was im- possible to mine it so as to fall upon them,' he attempted to reduce them by smoking. He goes on to state that the fire was kept up until midnight, and that wheo the place was cool enough for the royal troops to enter, they went in and put so the swoid sixteen, andbroughtawaytourornveative. The affair appears, indesd) to have been a Dahra massacre on a minor scale, with the addition of the slaughter of the rebels who had escaped suffo- cation." SPAIN. We have received Madrid papers to the 14th instant. The deciee against the press, which is censured by even some of the Ministerial journals, appears to have produced a deep impression. On the 15th all the editors of the periodica) press were to meet, in order to agree as to the best course to be pursued. The meeting was expected to present considerable interest. The Heraldo, the organ of the Ministry, expresses its approval of the decree, in defence of which it reproduces the arguments of the Ministers in their report to the Queen.

DUBLIN, July 17. 1345, Tf.I1MrNATJON OF TilE I:\Qt'EST AT BALLINIIASSIG. This protracted inquiry terminated at an advattcedhom on Tuesday, having occupied eight days. After the last wimess for the defence, George Buichell, a police-conslahle, hdd been examined, The Coroner proceeded to address the jurv. After a few pre- liminary observations, he proceeded to comment upon the evi. dence adduced on the inquest. It is shown you, continued he, that the police took the prisoner into custody, and that after they got into their barrack there was an attack of stones it is then prover'. that the police discharged iheir fire-arms. Now is tIle time for me to tell you, geoilemen, that you must weigh well in ) our minds whether there was sufficient lesislance given to the cousUbulary at that time to warrant them in firing those shots. If sufficient violence ivas txerrised. whereby the lives of the people were endangered, or themselves put in grievous bodily ,h!\rm, then they were justified in firing; but, on the other hand, if you think that there was not that violence, or, in fact, that there was no occasion for them to fire- that they did it wantonly and unnecessarily, you must find a verdict against them. After explaining the law of the case. the coroner proceeded—If you find that the police were justified in FILING at the time. you will return a verdict in their favour and if. on the other hand, you believe they acted unjustifiably, you will bring in a verdict against them. The police are a body of men established for the preser- vation of the peace, and as long as they do so, the law protects them. Gentlemen, one word before T have done. Your verdict is of great importance, both present and prospective. It is im- portant as regards the Lves which were lost in this transaction but it is of much greater importance when yon consider its futuie result. By your verdict is to be settled the questions— I are the people to be unnecessarily and wantooly shot down—A re thepetice to be protected in the honest discharge of their duties, I or put in dread of their lives. anrl placed in this predicament, "atn I to neglect my duty, or be tried as a felon by my country ?" The Cork lieporter gives the following descriptfon of the ex- traordinary scene that followed "A most confused and noisy I discussion here ensued as to the construction of the authorities relative bodily injury and 'grievous bodily injury.' It would be impossible to give anything hke a leoort of it from the I tumult that prevailed—some lawyers pitted Ru se!) against Roscoe, while others asserted that Nur,n and Welsh were higher authorises, or contra, that Jervis, and a host of jurists, who were cited 10 sustain him. Amid this scene it was impossible to hear a word of the passage which the coroner endeavoured to read from Roscce. One juror called out. For God's sake let only six speak at a time and we'll get through «.' The counsel, coroner, and Jurors, began to pull the law books from each other some insisted (hey had a right to get them to read, while others were equally vociferous that they had no business with them at length the coroner pushed all, except the ju:ors, out of the room —the only intelligib.le phrase amid the babel din, being the voice of the coroner, catting cut, 'Anti had no other weapon." After waiting until nine o'clock, expecting every instant to receive some Intimation Ibllt the Jurors had ag;et I to a verdict, a message WAS received by ihe coroner from the jury, when tbdt functionary, accompanied by the counsel, agents, and the re- porters. entered the jury room. After some conversation between the coroner and the foreman of the jury, the jury-room was agam cleared, Bnd the profes- sional gentlemen, clergy, fiiends \>f the deceased, and a large assemblage of the neighbouring population, who were asitmbiet) in the mill y"rd from an early hour of the day, remained there anxiously awaiting the issue of the proceedings. The almost breathless suspense was put an er.d to at three minutes PA- T ten o'clork, when it was anuounced theft the jury had agieed to the verdict. Immediately on this being inrimated, a tush was made for the steps leading to the apartment where the jury were, which was instantly thronged, its occupants being generally in a very ex- ciled IOtate. '1 he coroner Gentlemen, have you agreed to your verdict 1 Foieman We have. The coroner then took up the printed paper and reaifit. The finding was to Ihe following effect, and NEATLY in these woids We nnd that Corneliuq Forde came by his death in consequence of a gunshot wound inflicted on bim by a patty of police, who attended the fair of Balliniiassig on Monday, the 30th of June last, and that the said shot was fired on ihe above-named dny undfr the order of Sub-inspector Kelly, who commanded the said party, and that in the circumstances he was placed he WIS ill. juslified in giving such oider, and that, therefore, the death 01 the said Cornelius Forde amounts to justifiable homicide." Mr. O'Connell wished to know if the twenty-three jurors were uoanimolls iD Ihal finding 1 Mr. Fiusimon You. Mr. Coroner, can take the verdictol twelve gentlemen, and you have nothing to do with a greater or lesser number. Several jurors here loudly and warmly expressed their dissent to the finding, and announced the names of those who did not "oncur in it, and would have relumed quite a contrary verdict. They were as follow :-Daniel Lombard, foreman, William Hallinan, James Donegan, Richard Dennehy, Engine McCarthy, John 0 Leary, James Patten, John Hormbrook, Thos. Sullivan. The other fourteen jurors signed the verdict of justifiable homicide.

[Slight hisses, TAD expressions of marked disapprobation in the crowd.] Our reporter was then informed by one of the jury, that after a very animated and protracted discussioo, they divided three times—first, on the question of justification infirinff^Out of. the dispensary, which was carried in the affirmative.

DUBLIN, JULY 19. THE COUNTY OF CAVAN PROCLAIMED. The Dublin Gazette last night contained a proclamation, ex. tending the provisions of 'he Peace Preservation Act io the county of Cavan, which is declared to be io A state of disturb- ance, and requiring an increased establishment cf police. There is in the Gawtle another proclamation, directing that additional police shall be placed in three or four baronies of the county. This pioceeding the Lord-L'eutenant is enabled to adopt by the existing law which, if iropanially and vigorously enforced, as it had been by the Whigs, will restore tranquillity in the district. The Tory magistrates of Cavan,^JN their memorial, intimated to the Lord lieutenant that they woiild not be satisfied with the mere proclaiming of the county," they require martial law. But i! is well known that his Excel'ency is opposed tc such ex- treme measures, and Mr. Justice Jackson, in his recent charge to the Leitrim grand jury, stated it AS his conviction, that the ordinary law is quite sufficient.

Corn Trade. ! i
Corn Trade. -Though the weather has since our las; hetu or a mere favour- abie.vctiaracler than that experienced the preceding week, still it hs's fift beeu by aoy means settlei. Lp lo Wednesday we had •ctfM^ty a day without heavy rain, with a low temperature for Ihe season since tbeu, however, tbe showers hnvi* been less fiequent, and the air has become much warmer. Tlie reports from Ihe agricultural districts respecting Ille present aspect of the growing wheat crop vary materially indeed, so great is the dis- crepancy between the different accounts that 11 is difficult to form an opinion regarding the actual stale ot out prospects. In tome localities the plant is said to exhibit evident symptoms of disease, whilst in others the aspect is described as flourishing clnll healthy but in one respect, and that an important one, all parties agree, viz. that the harvest will, under any circumstances, be laie. This fact is, we are inclined to think, the only one, as relates to the future, of which even the best informed can speak with any degree of certainty. All the oiher rumours of injury said to have been sustained, or likely under certain combinations of events to be sustained, are vague and indefinite; on the whole, the reports of a favourable character aie moie numerous than those of an opposite nature, and we feel disposed to belitve that the mischief hitherto done has been a good deal exaggerated. There c*n be no doubt, however, that, after so wet and generally cold a summer as this has hitherto generally been, it will require extraordinary fine weather to bring the crops tavourabty to matu- rity and the atmospherical vicissitudes of the next six weeks will therefore be watched with even greater anxiety than is usually the case at this season. The slight i.oprovcmeni which has latterly taken place, in ihe weather has not been without in- fluence on the trade, the inclination to purchase Wheat having fallen off materially within the last day or two. At most of the markets held in the early part of the week -particularly those depending entiiely en the farmers for supplies-the demand was sufficiently active to take off all brought toward for sale, and enhanced rates were censequently obtained. This was the case at the principal shipping ports on the east coast, orders having been transmitted from London and other large consuming lowns, at high limits, to Lincolnshiie, Cambridgeshtie, and Noifoik. From Ihe Lynn and Spalding maiket-reporis, the business trans- acted at those'places on Tuesday was fit leims quite 2s. per qur. above those of the preceding week and at BoqoD, on Wednes- day, a similar enhancement was established. Prices of wheat on the coast have, therefore, risen so high as to leave no margin for profit; for ",hen freight and other expenses are added, Ihe cost exceeds the "alue of Ihe ariicle in the chief consuming market>. Good qualities of red wheat have recently been sold in Lincoln- shire at 52s. per. qr., and the some descriptions are certainly not worth more than 52s. to 54s. per qr. at Maik lane it is plain, therefore, that some concession will have to be made by farmers, or, if they refuse to give way, prices must rise at the ptacc* drawing the supplies before the trade can be placed on a proper looting. As already remaiked, the inclination 10 buy wheat has decidedly decreased siace the rain has ceased and at several of the markets held on Thursday aud Friday the upward tendency received a check. At Bristol and Birmingham, on the first-named day, the trans- actions were on a very restiicted scate millets declining to pay the advance of Is. per qr. generally demanded by holders. At Liverpool the inquiry for wheat had alieady become slow on Tuesday, and on Friday business was exceedingly heavy, thu, enabling buyers to secure what they requited for immediate use rta reduction of 2d. per 70lbs^ At tbe principa) towns in Yorkshire business has also been materially influenced byj the weather. The reports from Hull IInd L-tds state th.t, OWing to its ullsellled Hppearonce on Tues- day, factor were tn»b!ed to make sales at Is. to 2s. per qr. abo e fo m"r fates but at the neighbouringing maiket of Wake- field, on Fridsy, the inquiry had in so far slackened as to tender it difficult to make progress in sales at the enhancement named. By ourScOlch advices we learn that similar weather hu ucen experienced there to that which has prevailed in the South it would appear, however, ilM, as compaied with ordinary seasons, Ihé crops are reialively more forward theie than in England. The laie advance in quotations here had, however, induced holders of wheat to raise their pretensions and both at Edin- burgh and Glasgow more money wasnutizedoo Wednesday ihao could have been obtained on that day se'nnight Frdm Ireland the reports as to the probable result of the harvest are so extremely various and contradictory as to render it impos- sible 10 come to any conclusion. Slocks of old wheat seem to have become short in many paris of the island, and with small supplies, and the rather exciting Mark Lane advices of Monday last, enhanced rates had been established. Notwiih- sianding the statements circulated for weeks pilst lhal oats were ueatly exhausltd, fair quantities of that grain had coniinued 10 come torward and the inquiry hRving fallen off in consequence ol the dull accounts from this side of the channel, holders anxious to realize had been compelled 10 make some concession io prices. The arrivals of wheat coastwise into London have hfen mode- rate (only 5,693 qn. having been repoited up to this, Saturday evening), and the quantiiy exhibited at Mark Lane by land car- nage sumples from the neighbouring counties has been very small. On Wednesday there was scarcely anything offering, either from Essex, Kent, or Suffolk. The millers seemed less inclined to buy than in the commencement of the week, and lac- tors refusing to accept lower rate-i, the amount of business done was trifling in the extreme. Ou Friday affairs remained in much the same position; the trifling nature of the supply prevented prices giving way, whilst the more settled appearance of the wea. ther rendered purchasers extremely cautious. The inquiry for duty-paid foreign wheal hils throughout th<< week been languid owing, howewer, to the scarcity of fine qualities, the best sorts have been held very firmly at Monday's advance supeifine par- cel" of red wheat have been sold in small quantities at 55s. 10 56s., and, in one or two instances, as much as 58s. per qr. has, WI" bel'.i-ve, been obtained for very fine old Rostock, 1! growth of 1842. The disposition to make speculative investment* in botded wheat has again subsided, and w" have not heard o! a single sale since Monday, either on the spotorfreeon board at continental pOrlS; indeed, the prices asked for tloaiing caigoes have been tar too high to encourage purchasers 10 entei Into iliis kind of husinets for Rostock and similar description of ied wheat 34s. 10353" and for Danizig 37s to 39-. per qr. free on boa d, have been insisted on: this is anticipate g any advance wlllch may hereafter occur; and we feel DO surprise, therefore, that few contracts should have been dOEed., In respect to the future range of duty, theie is as yet no ground to reckon on a material reduction Ihe averages have certainly tended upwards of late, the weekly return for ilu- kingdom being lid., and that for London J01. per qr. higher thisthanthe pre- ceding week it will, nevertheless, require a further rise in prices to cause the duty to fall even below tne maximum poin', and to ensure any declioe of consequence, somelhing must Occur 10 give an impetus to the trade far greater than that produced by the re- cent unsettled weather. The advance on flour established last Monday has been very reluctantly paid by the bakers, and the sale of the article has consequently been exceedingly slow. Wiih barley of home growth the market has been sparingly supplied, ?nd ihe lecelpts of foreign continue to be landed in bond. The quantity exhibited for sale has, therefore, been small; but this has (ailed to impart more activity to business, and the operations have been on a strictly retail scale, at much the same terms as those previously current. The transactions in mall have likewise been unimportant, and quotations have undeigone no change requiting notice. The arrivals of English and Scotch oats have been small, only 987 qrs. having come 10 hand from our own coast, and 3 870 qrs. from Scotland the deficiency in the supply from ihose quar. ters has, however, been amply compensated by the receipt of 26,038 qrs- from Ireland, and 33,572qis. from abroad. On Friday factors were s'ill unwilling to accede to lower rates, and the few bsigains then closed were concluded a' similar rates 10 those current in the beginning of the week subsequently more anxiety to realize was manifested, and on Friday purchasers had decidedly the turn in their favour. Really fine fiesh corn was peihaps scarcely cheaper than on Monday, but light Irish and out of condition foreign qualities were obtainable at least 6J. per qr. below former teims, without inducing the principal dealers to buy freely. The demand for beans has, as is usually the case at ihis period of the year, been slow but the reduced state of the storks of this article, and the belief that old will will heieaftei be much wauled, have prevented any abatement in quotations.

SINGULAR MATCH AT CRICKET.—ARMS VEKSUS LFGS.—A match, which from its oovel character, attracted an immense number of spectators, was played last week ib the crickei-grcund of the Railway Tavern, at Reading.

One 01 the umpires bad lost both his arms, and the other had not u leg to stand upon." A referte was also selected, who had neither arms nor.legs At the commencement of the play ihe "odds" were io favour of the one-arms, notwithstanding ilie single legs |had many backers.

At the terminal on of 1.le game the score stood thus :—The single-legs, first innings, 25 second innings, 46-lolal 71. The one arms, first innings, 60; second innings, 50 -tolal 110.

The animals, notwithstanding ihe wildness peculiar to their breed, have since their arrival in the docks exhibited a wonderful degree of docility. They were accompanied from Muscat by grooms in the service 01 the lmauin. Monday the groups were removed from the docks hy four of the royal setvants to the mews adjoining Buckingham Pelace, Pimlico.

The Boston Mail newspaper speaks of some tobacco, which-, if a man smoke or chew, he will forget that he owes a dollar itv Ihe world.

Travelling gives ease and a polish to men of sense and learn- ing, which noihing else can suppty a judicious mixture of Ihose refined manners ill which our neighbouis excel, adds a grace and brilliancy to every solid accomplishment, and completes what may justly be cailed the fine gentleman as our weavers use wool of a finer growth than our native fleeces, to carry the ma- nufacture to its utmost perfection. The force of habit was remarkably exemplified recently in Kea. tucky, on the occasion of a funeral. The bereaved wife and « few neighbours sat waiting the ariiv?! of ihe people, all solemnly idle. The widow. becoming uneasy, afler sitting idle a few mi- nutes, cried out, Betty brinj me my knitting, I may as well take a few stitches while the crowd is gathering."—American paper. TIIIALS.—Man's greatest trials, says an old writer, arise from wealth, wine, and women. STREET CLEANING.—It is estimated that aD efficient cleansing of the streets, courts, and alleys of the towns of the United King- dom would give employment to forty-thousand able-bodied men. LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP.—l ove is the shadow of the morning, which decreases as the day advances. Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which strengthens with the setting sun of life.

TREATMENT OF INFLAMMATION.—The 1 A fe Mr. Peter Van I f 'omrigh, a very odd '1sh, who represented Droghcda in the im- perial parliament, was seized with a complaint which gave more concern to his friends than to himself. How do you ireat your inflammation, Mr. Van Homrigh?" said a sedate member of one the midland counties. "Sir," answered Peter, wllh a lofty tOile; sir, ] trate il wÍlh soveieign coniempi." Governesses are frequently handsome-they must be clever and accomplished. If 1 had the choice of a wife I would mairy a governess; IInd 1 lecommend all bachelors caPell upon to marry, lo look for partners in the ranks of plelty governesses. They,will there find beautiful girls, a little chastened by adver- sity perhaps, free from all those foolish fantasies which modern tnothers and modern fashions so genelally instil ii?to the minds of young ladies.— Eraser. GREYHOUNDS.— The speed of the greyhound has been said lo be equal to that of the fleetest hoise. A singular circuiosiarice which occurred at Doncaster, proved that it was not lUnch mfe- rior. A mare cantering over the Doncaster race course, her com- petitor having been withdrawn, was joined by a greyhound bitch wben she had proceeded a mile. She seemed determiner) to mcti with the mate, which the joikey humoured, aDd gradually in- created his race, until at the dlsbnce.hey put liiftnseUts their full sped. The mare beat her antagonist only by a head. The race-horse is, perhaps, generally supeiier to the greyhoncd on level ground, but Ihe greyhound woul.1 have the advantage III a h^Jly country.— From the" Dog, hy H M. \ouatt." LAOY HESTER'S SELF-DRAWN PORTRAIT —When I.was younc;, I was never whit you call handsome, hut brilliant. My teeth werebrittiant, my Ióloguage-all there it was—something strik- ing and orijinil, that caught every body's attention. 1 remem- ber, when I was living with Mr. Pill, that, one morning after a party, he said to lYle, Really, Hester, Lord Hertford (ihe father of the lale lord, and a lTIan of bigh pretensions for his country manners), paid you so many compliments about your looks last night, that you might well be proud of ihein." Not at all," answered I he is deceived if he thinks I am handsome, for I know 1 am no!. If you were lo take every feature io my face, and put them one by one on tbe table, theie is not a single one would bear examination. The only thing is, that put them together and lighted up, they looked well enough. It is hopio- geneouslIgliness and nothing more." TRY ME.— the motio on the sea) of General Houston is, "Try me." The origin of these two words deserves nonce. It will illustrate the oharacter of the man belter than any desciiption oJ. his life. He was one day grossly insulted by a low ruffian of the Arkansas, whom he horsewhipped on the spot. A week after- wards his exasperated antagonist sent him a challenge tn a pub- lie room, which General Houston was in the habit of Irequen.iog. The General, however, openly refused to grant the satis/action required, under the plea that the man whom he had punisheu was below his notice, and that he coold not meet him withouti degra- dation. Among the persons present was a government officer, a duellist by profession, whose constant boasl WAS, that he had done the business of twenty-nioe tools. He often repealed that he would give half his fortune 10 complete the thirtieth. Whi-n he heard the answer of Houston he made several coarse remaiks, adding, that he wondered if the General would have daied to have given him such an answer. Try me," s id Houston. The trial was made the next morning, and the duellist was shot through the brain. EMBARRASSMENT OF RICHES.—The men of Ihe 49:b Regiment who selved at the siege of Cantoo, have received their hatta money, ai.ionutiu^ (;; 1t:, 4. each man, within the last week. n ey have lesoried to all sorts of jollity to rid themselves of so much oppressive cash, and, like Jack at his paying off, Ihey have generally betaken the easiest, or at least, the most expeditious, modi 01 doing so. ID the neighbourhood of Peinbroke-stieel, the scenes have been very extraordinaiy so wealthy had the men suddenly become, thai the difficulty appeared to very many to ai .s^from the impossibilIty of getting clear of it and all ;t. troubles within the lout days grace allowed Ihtm. They con- cocled all kinds of diversions, rode in cariiages, trellled their fliends, "made it up" witti their foes, and formed acquaint- anceships which, hut for the teady kind of cement employed, could not so quickly Ilave been made. On Tuesday thfe grace expned and, with a very few exceptions, ihe entire regiment resumed its previous highly creditable tenor. Devonport Tele- gmph. ADAPTATION TO CIRCUMSTANCES.—Ilerr Von Scheldt, a Ger- man, was breaktitstingwith a Fellow of Worcester College, in (ompany with the Revds. J. H. Newrran, F. Marriott, another erpinent divines. The conversation turned upon the different re. ligious observances uf diffeient countries, and the duty of confor- mity.

ELIGIBLE PRODUCTIONS.—The Gei,cjee Farmer gives this brief summary of the native countries of o'wr most familiar plants The potato is a native of South America, and is still found wi!d in Chili, Peru, and Monie Vide'9. In its native state, the root is small and bitter. The fiist mention of it by European writers is in 1588. It is now spread over the world. Wheal and rye originated in Tartary and Sibeiia, where they ate still indigenous. The only country where the oat is found wild is in Abyssinia, and thence may be considered a native. Maize or Indian corn is a native of Mexico, and was unknown in Europe until after the discoveries 01 Columbus. The bread-fruit tree is a native of the South Sea Islands, partly Olaheite. Tea is found a naiive no wheie except in China and Japan, from which countries the world i, supplied. The cocoa Qut is anallve of most equinoctial countries, and is one of the most valuable trees, as food, clothing, and shelter, aie afforded by it. Coffve is a naiive of Arabia Felix, but is now spread into both the East and Westlnd;es. The best coffee is bloughl from Mocha, in Arabia, wilt n e about fourteen millions of pounds are annually exported Sr. Domingo furnishes from sixty to seventy millions of pounds yeady. All the varieties of the apple are derived from the crab appl", which is found native in most parts of the world. The peach is derived from Persia, where it still grows in a native sLite, small, bitter, and with poisonous qualities. Asparagus was brought from Asia; cabbage and lelluce from Holland; horse- radish from China; rice fiom Ethiopia; beans from the East Indies; and garlicks are natives of various places both in Asia and Afiica. The sugar cane is a native of China, and lilt: art of making sugar comes from i'—American paper. NORTHERN CIRCUIT. BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE. — THOMPSON V. DODGSON. This was an action for Dreacli of promise of marriage. Mr. Baines and Mr. Hew appeared for the plaintiff. The action was undefended. Mr. Baines staled the case. The plaintiff, who was then 26 yeais 01 age, was the daughter of John Thompson, who formerly kept an inn at Gisburn.and who was now a master carrier at the same place. The defendant was a person of about ihe same age as the plaintiff, and he rented a farm of £ 150 a year at New. some, under Loid Ribblesdale. The iutimacy between the par- ties couimenred as far back 09 1838, wheu he was received as a suitor, and hA stated lhat it was Ills iDlenlioD 10 marry rhe plain- tiff. In 1840 she gave birih to a chIld, and in 1842, in conse- quence of her father being unfortunate in business, she went to reside at Manchester as a housekeeper. The defendant h"d WrltlclI a number 01 lellers 10 Ibe plaintIff down to Ihe middle of hist summer, which left no doubt that ihe defendant bad pro- mised to marry her, although he had neglected to fulfil his en- gagement. The learned counsel then proceeded to read a num- ber of h:ller9, in which he staled thaI the plaioliffwas His nightly thought, His morning care. His evening song, c His morning prayer." H, (Laughter.) He also stated his desire "tn Jodgewhfre she iudged, to eat where she eat, and to.resi wheie she lested." (Re- newed laughter.) In another letter, he said— Your hand and heart I wish to claim, •s-l-k Oh, make me happy with the same In pity yield to my request. And in your smiles let me be blest!" (Loud laughter.) Mr. Baines observed that it was quite clear prolllues Hf marriage had been made by the defendant and bro- ken, and he therefore submitied that the plaintiff had a right to recover considerable damoges. The jury relumed a verdtct for (he plaintiff—damages £bO.
