Prior to the pausing of tb is Act it was wellknown that our lowest price for the smallest Ad-vertisement was Ss. Gd. and upwards. Thatwould he, if continued—~

For One Year, £8 Os.This being so hig h, that trades-people seldom

advertised by the year. But now we propose to adopta different scale of prices , and one which , wehope, will not only increase the number of ourAdvertisements in a marked degree, but augmentour list of Subscribers very considerabl y.

We therefore propose to charge Advertisers£2 10s. a year for our Paper, which will entitlethem to publish an announcement of their ownbuiines3, if not more than Six LINES, in everyp ublication f or Twelve Months.

This, as our readers may perceive, will, whenthe price of the Paper (£1) is taken into conside-ration , amount but to the trifling sum ofFor One Year's Advertising, £1 10s. Od.That is, for each Advertisement £0 Os, 7(1.

WATERFORD AND DUNMORERAILWAY.

A LARGE and very influential meeting of theinhabitants of Waterford and its neighbour-

hood, took place at the Town Hall on Tuesday, the8th instant , to secure the formation of a Railway tothe mouth of the harbour.

THOMAS F. STRANGE , Esq., Mayor, in the chair.Proposed by J. Mackesy, Esq., M.D., seconded by

Captain Simon Newport , J.P. :—Itcsoli-cd—That as a large district of Ireland is now

connected with Wntcrford by Railway, co'npridinij ti-.olarge and important totvus of Limerick, Tippcvaty, Kil-larney, Mallow, Caher, Clonmel, Carriclc-on-Suir , Kil-kenny, and Thomastown , aud as the Hue through theCounty Clare to the important town of Eunis and throughthe county Limerick to Foyncs, will be completed in tlietime has now amvenffor making arrangements to securethe revival of Mail steam Packet communication betweenWaterford nnd that port.

Proposed by Win. Lloyd, Esq., and seconded hjEdmond Power, Esq., J.P. :—

Jtesolved — That having taken into consideration thoprnctibiiity of a direct line of railway from Waterford 'oDuumore , and considering the difficulty of obtaining thenecessary capital for that line, and on the other hand theadvantages offered by Mr. D.irgan , and tho lauded pro-prietors on the other Hue, we deem it expedient to adopttho Hue from Waterford through Tramore, to Dunmore.

Proposed by Newport Uolton , Esq., seconded byMr. Thomas Barnes :—

Iiesolccd -That a share list be forthwith opened anda provisional committee be formed to carry out the fore-going resolutions, aud that the following prospectus beadopted :

Solicitors—Messrs. Barrington , Son, and JeffriesEngineer-in-Chief—W. S. Lefanne, Esq.

lion. Secretary—E. N. Barrou , Esq.It is proposed in the next session of Parliament to

seek powers for the incorporation of a Company underthe above title for the construction of a Railwayfrom the Terminus of the Waterford and Tramoreline , at Tramore , to the Town and Harbour of Dun-more, a distance of about 7 miles. The total cost isestimated at a sum of less than £30,000, and Mr.Dargan is prepared to execute the work on suchterms as to ensure the promoters that this cost shallnot be exceeded.

Two miles of the line are intended to run over theembankment which Mr. Dnrgan is ;ilread y empoweredto make for the reclamation of the Back Strand ofTrainore. and as this gentleman is prepared to makeun nni ple allowance in the work, which answers adouble purpose, not only is the cost thus considerablydecreased , but much expedition must thereby be

given to tlie work, as two miles can be finished nextspring, leaving only four miles for completion on thepassing of the act in Summer. Thus expedition isfurther secured hy the co-operation and liberality ex-pected from the landowners , the Marquis of Water-ford, the proprietor of Dunmore and the adjacentestates, having promised to give his land gratuitouslyto the Company, and the Earl Forteseue and otherproprietors having also promised not to be behindhand. Thus if the subscri ption list now fills, a com-plete railway from Waterford to Dunmore Harbouris ensured by the Autumn of next Year.

Dunmore, up to within a few years, had been thestation for a Mail Steam Packet communication be-tween Millbrd Haven and the South of Ireland. Thecompletion of the Limerick and of the Kilkenny linesinto Wnterford , and the South Wales line to Milford,nil within a few months of accomplishment, must un-doubtly re-establish this route between the two coun-tries. The onl y delay to be apprehended is the wantof Railway communication to Dunmore. .This, thepresent undertaking, is put forward to supply trade atso trifling a cost, it is clear that it must be one ofthe best pay ing undertakings in the United King-dom, if succeeded by the establishment of the Mil-ford Packets. .

But even independently of this great source of traf-fic , it opeiis lip one of the most beutifully situatedbathing places on the Irish Coast, and leads to a cer-tain pleas, re traffic , not only between Wfcterford andDunraore, but also between Tramore and the latter

To the Editor of the Waterford Hews.COMMENTS ON DEAN HOARE'S LECTURE ON

POPULA R EDUCATION.SEVENTIC LETTER.

SIR—Docs Dean Hoare really mean to prove anythingby his lecture ? If he only wanted to persuade us thatthe people ought to be educated as well as possible, hemi ght have saved himself at least thirtyjwge a of closepriut; at least I never chanced to meet with' any one whowould be inclined to contradict him. 'Tia only to themeans we differ. He is for the mixed system ; but doeshe|attcmpt to prove tbat it is the best which we, Catholicscould have ? No; but he snys that in his opinion it is,tho best suited to the peculiar circumstances of thiscountry—that it hasconferreii great benefits on our popu-lation, and is destined, he f irmly believes, to effect the" social and moral regeneration of Ireland." He gives noproof in support of these assertions. But it is his opinion.Dr. Newman is of a very different opinion, for he givesreligion the first place in education. I cannot see honthe mixed system is best suited to our peculiar circum-stances, unless that our faith has been exposed to moretrials and temptations than thnt of any other people ontho earth. But what docs he mean by the " social andrnoral regeneration of Ireland ?1' which, he says, is to beeffected by the national and model schools, together withthe colleges which have been already denounced as *' dan-gerous to morals." He leaves us to guess. Does hemean by social regeneration, that industrious tenantsshould be exterminated, and landlords shot on more scien-tific principles—that one denomination of chrisHansshould bo compelled to maintain the clergy.of another —or that we ought to have vote by baUotJK£jp?»*<«t'nioralcorruption and' intimidation at ,elootionS^ and universalsuffrage, or at least the use of the elective franchise fortuorj man rrhw wmWttBTrrersiecture on popular educa-tion ; that" paupers ahbnjd be as w«ll fed as convicts;and, as the Dean says in .his concluding words, " that weshould do un'o them as we would that they should dounto us" 1 If that is what he means, I fear tbat it is notmathematics that will " regenerate" us, but charity andrelig ion. n t. T ' T

" There is a cood time coining, boys." Qatholia ire-lnnd, in the 19thj century, is to be |morally regenerated !By what ? By a Catholic University, as ft: finishingschool—by Catholio Institutes, conducted by men : whodevote their lives to the instruction of youth—by sohoolsfor both sexes, in which; religion and science are to wallchand iu hand. No; but by asystem got np with a viewto subvert the influence of the Ctholio church jn thiscountry. And who are .the authorities adduced Dy_thevery rev. lecturer to support his scheme of "morttlregene-rmiou"? Perbapstue Count deMontalembertj UnhnalWiseman, Charlekangdale.or the most ReT. Dr. Cullen.Not at all ; but Lord Brougham,4/>rd Carlisle, the Dukeof Newcastle, and Lord John Russoll(the author of :theWhig, Durham, Mummery epistles)—and in the frOLtrank, Dr. Wliately, who would begin by "regenfrating"the nuns, and whose '.' evidences of Christianity" entitlehim to the admiration of all moral regenerates.. AndDean Hoare received a vote of " warmest thanks'' for hispains ia the Catholio city of Waterford from a mixedaudience," numerously and most respectably attended bypersons of all classes and religious persuasions." Verilyour Catholicity is undergoing a process of moral andliberal regeneration unequalled since the days of Vo'.taii e

gftttf 3Ba»'S f Ku tLDEFEAT OF THE RUSSIANS IN WALLA-

CHIA CONFIRMED—THE FUNDS DOWN.The intelligence to-day is of the highest import-

ance. The consul of France at Bucharest communi-cated to the French minister at Vienna an accoun tof the defeat of the Russians by the Turkish force,under OMEII PACHA , which had crossed the Danube.Uy this account, which is confirmed, by the Bucha-rest paper, the engagement lasted three hours, andfinall y, after a hand to hand struggle with the bay-onet , the Turks maintained and fortified their posi-tion. The decidedly warlike character of the newscaused a decided reaction in the Funds at the Lon-don Stock Exchange on Wednesday. Consols de-elined from 95} $ to 94} %, a fall of one per cent.—The following is the French consol 's communicationby telegraph:

VIENNA , N OV. 8.—The Consul of France atBucharest writes as follows to M. tie Bourqueney,under date Gth November:—

" On the 2d and 3d of November the Turkscrossed the Danube from Turtukai to Oltenitza, tothe number of about 12,000 men.

" On the 4th General Parlof attacked them with9,000 men, and , after a brisk cannonade, a combatwith the bayonot took place between the two armies.

" The Turks maintained their positions at Oltcniza ,and have fortified them.

" The combat lasted for three hours." In it the Russians lost several officers and 130

¦fia-47y1riHvike>)TW«fimtfwr.":"-- "*-"-> ,.r.9-c">.-i.»»"Mr" The loss on the Turkish side is not known." 4,000 Turks occupy Kalarach , 2,000 have estab-

lished themselves on an island in front of Giurgevo,and 12,000 are in Lesser Wallachia."

(BY SUBMARINE AND EUnOPEAN TELEGRAni)VI E N N A , TUESDAY N IGHT .—From the 4th to the

5th the Turks occupied the island near Oltenitza,and crossed unobserved to Wallachia at dawn.When seen, a battle ensued , which lasted 28 hours.The result is unknown. It is rumoured that Giur-gevo was taken by storm.

THE CITY IMPROVEMENT BILL.Although this bill , which has been before the pub-

lic for the past few days, is as closely worded as itpossibly can be to the Improvement Bills that havebeen adopted by the citizens of Dublin , Belfast,Limerick, and Cork, still , strange to say, it has metwith merciless opposition from our Chamber of Com-merce, Harbour Board, and, partl y from our Cor-poration. Wh y is this ?

1st.—Because there was not time—they say—toconsider its provisions. Second—because it waspremature. Third—because it would increase ourtaxation. Fourth—because the mayor's name wsson the back of it. Fifth—because it would give thecorporation increased powers for taxation , &c.There were a few other reasons and assumptions ad-duced ; but these we believe to be the leadingobjections.

Now as to a lack of time, we know not what moretime any man wants to read and digest a local billsuch as this is, than five or six dayB and nights.—We believe that some of those objectors would read onentire novel, containing ten times the quantity ofmatter embraced in this bill , in one single nigh t ; butfrom Saturday morning to Thursday at 12 o'clock,they have not, forsooth, time to read ever 54 pagesof largely printed type.

It was " premature," say the objectors. Howcould a good measure be premature 1

It would " increase our taxation ," say they again.For whom would the taxation be increased ? Forour own use and benefit. Don 't people tax them-selves for their food and clothing ?

The mayor's name was on the back of it. Thiswas a most happy hit ; an ingenious objection. Thename of "•Thomas F. Strange" destroyed the provi-sion of the bill ! Oh, yes. The name of the solicitoris very important fo tho public Very ! What afatal error ! Behold it reader.

A h ! but it will give the corporation '" increasedpowers." Here is the marrow of the objections.The objectors may as well not disguise it,—here it is—it is too patent to be hidden . But Shakspearesays :—

" Foul deeds will rineThough all the world o'whelin them to mens' eyes."

" Increased powers." Why, on the very same prin-ciple the Munici pal Reform Act might as well havebeen opposed. But as to taxation , we believe thenew Corporation , althoug h they have vastly improvedthe city, never yet put on a borough-rate, thouglithey had and have the power of so doing, to theamount of one shilling in the pound. Who believesthat the present Corporation is disposed—be theirpowers great or small—to over-tax the citizens ?We venture to say that no unprejudiced man believesit. How could they, were they so disposed, perse-vere in over-taxing the citizens, when the citizenshave it in their power to remove them " AD LIBITUM "—at every new election 1 In short, wo know noportion of the community less inclined to tax theirfellow-men than the Corporation of Waterford. Wehave often urged them to lay on a small borough-rate for the improvement of the city, and we haveinvariably found them to shudder at the bare idea ofit. So much, therefore, for the cuckoo cry of over-taxation f It is a mere delusion—a paltry shift—acomplete sham—an artful trick.

Is cur cily so perfect that we need no improve-ment ? There is not a city in Ireland so backwardfor the want of substantial improvements as this. InLimerick the other ddy, magnificent docks werethrown open—they are not only a credit to tho city,but to the country at large. Cork is going to lay outpromenades for. the citizens, and Belfast is advancingat railway speed. Now is Wflterford , which ough t ,.- 1.- .L i_ j „•».. ,-„ 1 „,] <>„ A tn «tnnd still ?—to

Who, may WP auk ,will Improve our city or localityif we refrain fron> \doing it ourselves ? Shall we askMr. DA R O A N to do it out of his own capacious pocketWe pay several shillings in the pound for poor-rates.We MV.ST do that. We see little or nothing for it,still we don 't complain much. And why ? Becausewe have no back-doors-—we cannot escape it. But,if as many ponce are called for to carry out the pro-visions of a Town 's Improvement Bill, certain personsare immediately found to cry out " taxation '1—" tax-ation."

When a Bill will have the powers of abolishingLamp Tax—Grand Jury Cess—Water Tax , &c,there can be no great risk in assuming a tax, notto exceed 5s. in the pound. And the city to beimproved in the bargain. What have the above-mentioned taxes done towards the improvement ofthe city ? Have not the Corporation been constantlyimproving it out of their own funds alone ?

As a friend observed to us on yesterday, a manwill {j ive with alacrity one or more pounds towardsopening a street or lane, which may t«ke some years'bepging before it is completed ; but , the moment aboroug h rate is spoken of, the same person will bethe first to raise un outcry ngainst it. In like man-ner a man will lay out £50 or £100 in preparing anew shop front ; but he will object to a borough-rate,,though it would give a new FRONT to every shop inthe city. The cry against a borough-rate is thereforeopposed to common reason—opposed to progress.

Had we this improvement act a few years ago inWaterford , we would now have Lombard's marsh aflower-garden—Barronstra nd-street open wide to thepublic—a good supply of water—unerring markets—perhaps a free brid ge—and many other improve-ments which , looking to futurity, as is generallydone, it is impossible to enumerate. All these im-provements would have been effected , and this day,we verily believe, not a man in the city would boone shilling the poorer. But, unless the corporationbe invested with such powers, in vain may we look forany improvement worthy of the name. And itshould be borne in mind , that if there be a littleextra taxation , the people will be employed , andrates will be thereby lessened in another quarter.

The new Bill does not make it COMPULSOHY onany bod y—no matter what it may be—to sell itsvested rights or interests. It merely gives the cor-poration the power of obtaining funds, without whichnothing can be boug ht , and 110 local improvementeffected.

The cause, it is true*, may suffer for a whilc.but assure as the other cities which we have named, havegot their bills , so shall we.

As Sir J OHN Y OUNG and the Government havepromised their support , all they want is, to be backedBY THE PEOPLE . Not a rush do Government carefor the opposing votes of a handful of men whey theyhave the sweet voices of the thousands.

In Dublin this week a few bigots went to the trou-ble of knocking at the door of the Lord Lieutenantto complain of Mr. O"Callaghan , the magistrate, forhaving had the manliness to " put up " a soupingpublic disturber ; but the redress they gnt was, told tocall next door, to go through an expensive course oflaw to gain their ends.

As we said before,thc bill may be retarded for a shorttime—but come it will in the end. The old jog-trotwon 't do now. We must • advance. And no menarc better aware of this truism than the members ofthe present Government.

We congratulate the citizens on the result of yes-terday 's proceedings. We congratulate them becausethe Bill will LESSEN taxation—extend improvements ,and make our city rank next to those preat citieswhich have received their Improvement Bills.*

We trust that the Chamber of Commerce will now—instead of acting the silly part of the wide-streetboard of Cork—meet the members of the Corporationand the rate-payers generally, and endeavour tocoiiie to an unanimous opinion in favor of the bill.

It woul d be an absurd thing—or worse—for onebody to set itself up in opposition to another whenthe interests of the city are concerned. The motto,therefore, should now be—LET ALL BE UNANI-MOUS FOR AN IMPROVEMENT BILL.

A LOQUACIOUS FISH !For some weeks past the "Mailman " has been

peculiarly busy—he always appears to be busy—inindicting ruNs on the Mayor 's name. When theloquacious editor arrived in town the first thing hewent about learning was the Mayor 's name, andwhen that discovery—a second Cohunbus's—wascome—t1iaFT'ri^ira«;Mi"w^ul3*liave i~Becri^'th'e*'fei'suit. Hence we find that , from that memorable dayto the present , he has been continuousl y harping onthe word STRANGE . In almost every local paragraphin his paper the words " Strange " this and " Strange"that , are repeated so often that one feels at a loss toknow what can be the object or meaning of suchfolly. In the pigmy metropolis of Mullinavat thislittle punning might be considered very amusing—nay, indicative of n great mind ; but here in thesober easy-going old city of Waterford , people mayform a very different opinion. Every man to histaste.

After all there 's ."omething in a name, for the" Mailman" is, as we find , driven to the necessity ofembracing it as his text when ascending his bigotedanti-Pop ish rostrum in Quay-lane.

WHO IS TO BE THE NEW MAYOR ?This is a question which is being asked by a great

many citiy .ens ; but It ia one which very few can an-swer. The Liberal members of the council have iteven yet in their power to return a man of their ownchoice. But the question then arises, will they doit 1 Are they unanimous ? We believe they arenot. Are the Conservative members united ? Wethink they are, and great credit do we give them fortheir cordial union. A vast deal of the evils andafflictions of this country have arisen from disunionamongst the people—with them it seems to be here-ditary—from sire to son the curse has like a ni ght-mare adhered to them. From various causes thisprinci ple of division has arisen—from jealousy, ill-will , and countless other objections, fancied as wellaB real. Well , the wise ones of the country took ad-vantage of the strife , and hence perhaps may havearisen the well-known c-y of " divide et impera "—divide and conquer—divide and govern . But to thequestion at issue. On this duyf week Mr. ThomasMurphy, in a letter to this journal , mentioned thenames of two gentlemen in connection with themayoralty. He very properl y suggested UNION inthe Liberal ranks. But how are we to arrive at thatunion 1 Let us suggest a plan—and that is, THAT ACOKFF.RF.SCT OP THE I . lnV.RAL McUIEIU DP TUP. COUN-CIL BE HELD F O R T H W I T H , WITH THE VIEW OF ASCER-T A I N I N G WHICH MEMLL F.R OF T H E I R BODY WOULD HAVETHE BEST C H A N C E OF C O M B I N I N G ALL SECTIONS OFLIBERALS — IN SHORT , WOULD HAVE THE MOST CHANCEOF SUCCESS.

It might be considered invidious if we recommend-ed one- man above another ; and therefore we leavethe selection to the discretion , prudence, and soundjudgment of the members of the council who repre-sent—or are supposed to represent—the opinions andfeelings of the great mass of our fellow-citizens.This seems to be the most feasible and practical wayof arriving at a conclusion which must very soon beregarded with deep Interest.

The conference might also take into account—ifthe}' thought proper—the claims of other membersof the council , who, though differing with the majorityin certain opinions, are nevertheless respectable mem-bers of society, good employers, and worth y citizens.By a meeting of this kind we opine that some dis-agreement, and , for aught we know , ill-feeling, maypossibly be averted. Past differences should be en-tirely forgotten at such a jun cture as the present.

Hocal ttepott^ - lr-1-RAILWAY TO DUNMORE. '

1 • Pursuant to requisition , which appeared*in our

last, a large and influential meeting was held onTuesday, in the Town Hall , for the purpose of takinginto consideration what measures should be adoptedfor securing the formation of a railway to the mouthof the harbor , and the revival of the line ;of mailsteamers between this port and Milford Haven.Amongst others the following were present :—Tho-mas F. Strange, Mayor ; Thomas Meagher, M.P. ;John Esmonde, M.P. ; N. M. Power, M.P. ; SirBenjamin Morris ; Henry Denny, vice-chairman ofthe Waterford and Limerick railway ; H. W. Mas-sey, vice-chairman of the Tramore railway ; JohnMackesy, M.D., E. Power, J.P., Capt. Newport, P.Tobin , M. I). Hassard1, high sheriff ; Joseph Tabi-teau , John Newport , R. T. C*rew, H. Reynett, JohnA. Blake , John Hughes, John Farrell, A. Stephens,Capt. Price, Rev. T. Flynn , P.P., J. Flahavan, T.Power, John Lalor, T:C, Thomas Barnes, PierceKell y, solicitor ; E. N. Barron , solicitor ; W. M.Ardag h .Alex. Sherlock , T. S. Harvey, Smith Ardagh,Aid. Plielan , Aid. Carroll , T. Elliott, J.P., T. Clarke,T.C., Hugh N. Kevins , Arthur O'Neill , GeorgeAdams, Charles Newport , J.P., W. Lloyd, Aid.Davis, E. Walsh , T.C., G. White , Albert White ,Maj or Roberts , Jacob Pcnrose, John Blake, A.Cadogan , Wall Morris , J. E. Fechan , Wm. Bolton ,T. Condon , M. Condon , &c.

T. F. STRANGE , Esq., Mayor presided, and E. N.Barron , Esq., acted as secretary. '

Dr. John Mackesy, in proposing the fvi 'csclu-tion , said that he would have been glad t^Vyfre dutyhad fallen on some one who was better a^iplto urgethe matter on their attention—he had , in companywith some of his brother directors of the Waterfordnnd Limerick line, attended a meeting of the Direc-tors of the Waterford1 and Tramore line, to counte-nance the extension of that undertaking to Dunmore,and regretted it did not go forward, and he had againbrought it before the AVaterford and Limerick board ,who were most favourabl y disposed towards the pro-jec t, and he had got up the requisition under whichthe meeting was convened (hear, hear, and applause).Waterford was, by the completion of the railways,brought in connection! with the importan t cities andtowns of the south of Irel and, Coik , Limerick , Tip-perary, Caher, Mallow, Kilkenny, Thomastown , Car-rick-on-Suir, &c, and! on the completion of railwaysin progress, would in a short time be in connectionwith Et inis and Foynes, the population of which dis-trict may be about a million and a half. By thecompletion of the line of railway to Dunmore , andthe estnblishment of steamers to Milford , the connec-tion would be completed between this great Irish po-pulation and the densely inhabited districts of SouthWales, and South of England , particularly the for-mer, that supplied coal, iron , &c. The great advan-tages possessed by Milford Haven had attracted theattention of English capitalists, who had purchasedland and were erecting large warehouses about HobbsPoint , which had thi3 advantage, that vessels draw-ing 24 feet water could anchor at the wharfs. Theeleclric telegraph would enabl e houses in Liverpoolor Manchester to transmit orders for the shipment ofgoods from these warehouses, and Hobb's Point waslikely to become the point of starting of the Trans-atlantic packets. In fact , he was informed that onecompany would save £100,000 per annum in codalone. He had to point out the necessity of an im-mediate step to procure this railway ; if it was made ,and the steamers rurning, a man might breakfast inWaterford and dine in London. Several projectshad been .proposed, but no individual interest oughtto interfere. This was not a Waterford question , itwas not a Tramore question, or a Dunmore one, butit WAS an Irish question (hear, hear, hear). Somehad thought the packets could come up to the quay,if so they would want no railway ; but now the dif-ference of a couple of hours was an object , and thattime woul d be saved by going to Dunmore. Passagewas also mentioned, and so was a direct line ; but ifthat was made it would be 10J miles to Dunmore , 2Jmiles to Passage, and would cost £90,000 to £100,000.If we were in a position to pay down the money anddo this it would be well ; but Mr. Dargan refused toconnect himself with either the line to Dunmore orPassage, while he was prepared to tnke part in theline from Tramore to Dunmore. The question nowwas will they have the proposed line or none at all?Now , what are Mr. Dargan 's proposals ? If we opena share list for the short line he will put down hismiles over the"TiaclT-stratid'1 a't TrarfWrV tyf &2;t/UUper mile ; this would leave only 4 miles to 4\ milesto be made, which will cost about £26,000. TheTramore directors say they will take J, and the Wa-terford and Limerick are prepared to recommendtheir shareholders to take }, so that all that wouldbe wanting is £7,000 to £8,000. He had summonedthe requisitionists to meet yesterday ; several came,and they were nearly unanimous in recommendingthe adoption of the short line. He regretted themoving of the first resolution did not fall, into ablerhands, who could explain more vividly the advan-tages from renewing the steam communication be-tween the South of Ireland und South Wales ; hehad endeavoure d to do his part as an Irishman andas a citizen of Waterford (cheers). Dr. Mackesyconcluded by reading the following :—

Besabormigh, Nov. 4, 1853.DI» R SIF— I mueh repret that , being ohligeil to so to h union

ou Wedni'Bilay next , it will be out or my power to attend the meet-ins siimnionnl for Tui'silay, the 6th , upon theaulijcctof a st nmercommunication with Enjjlnnd. The project uppears to me tobe of the utmost impirtniice , doth in a national and in n localfioint of view , and if I can be uf any service in promoting it , Itee thiit you will not hesitate to make use of me.

You will , perlinp*, allow me to n-commend thut the object firstto be kept in view should be the establishment of railway com-munication between W aterfnrd and Dunmore. Without that , itwould be fruitless to hupp, for the establishin-nt of any fastpackets on the lim—with it , thr advantage to he derived by thewhole of this part of Ireland would be BO evident as to make thecane almost irresistibl".

I venture to make this RURgeition , as I f el ronvinced that nopromise could be obtained lrum any public body of the packetportion of the communication while the railway portion remainedin a stute of uncertainly.

I remain, de»r sir, your's faithfully,BcssaonouoH.

Dr. Mackesy read a communication from the Wa-terford and Kilkenny railway company, wherein itwas stated that at a meeting of the board, a letterhaving been read from Dr. Mackesy, in which hedrew attention to the great importance of a railwaybetween Waterford and Dunmore, with a view to therevival of the mail packet service between this portand Milford Haven , the following resolution wasadopted :—

Resolved— That ns Mr. R»dcliffe is about to proceed toIreland that he be requested to communicate) the warm in-terest this company take in the formation of th« proposedline; also tlint the matter shall be mentioned to the share-holders at the general mi-ctiDg.

Dr. M. said he had written to the South Wales andto the Great Western Directors, all of whom seemfavorable to the proj ect. He concluded by proposingthe first resolution , for which and the subsequentones, see advertisement in first page.

Capt. Newport rose to second the resolution, andcommenced by saying that he thought the directorsof the Limerick and Tramore companies were en-titled to their thanks , and that Mr. Dargan was alsoentitled to their thanks for his eftbrtsfarj trying toform this line. He approved of the'meeting andwould he glad to see Dunmore opened as a p)ace ofrecreation ; but he was of opinion that delusive hopeswere held out , as the pier of Duumore was totallyunfit for a pucket station—it was one of the greatestblunders ever committed in the annals of engineering.The harbor had got a fair trial , and xrf a found inade-quate for even fishing yawls, not to talk of vessels ofsuperior class, and it would require a further outlayof £150,000 before it would be at all suitable. Hebelieved that if any line were formed, it shoul d be adirect one, aud the vessels should come to the quiiyat Waterford. A shilling will iwver go into thepoekcls of the contributors to this Undertaking, as itwill be a dead failure, and if he/were as rich asRothschild , he would not give a *5.note towards it,If £150,000 were laid out on the/pier it might be ofsome service- ; but it has been condemned by the go-vernment, and they will never .knock, it down andbuild a new one, nov will they e^er |hake it a MilfordHaven packet station. For the? salce of his family,who were very fond of going to . Dunmore, as well asfor other families, he would like to see the line con-structed ; but it was a delusion to think it would bemade a packet station. He was'in favour of a linedirect to the city, through Passage, where there wasexcellent anchorage. He hoped a committee wouldbe appointed to consider which; was it better to havea railway by Tramore to Dunmore,'or recommendthe vessels to come up to the quay^

at Waterford.

He seconded the resolution. .' ¦¦'Rev. Mr. Flynn, P.P., said .he had rarely ever

heard a more depressing speech than that of Capt.Newport'8. The common pilots or ' boatmen couldrefute the captain's argument!. At the time the.pier«<•• moAa at nimmcire. ther* jrtreTnb utiwrien,' and

Dunmore was constructed at a cost of £18,000, andit answered admirably. It was excellent holdingground, with twelve feet of water at low tide, andnearly as many feet of mud, which "might be clearedout at little expense. Who has ever heard of an ac-cident at Dunmore ? (hear, hear). If the mail steam-ers passed by Dunmore heretofore, and came up toWaterford, as Capt. Newport had said, it was becausethe captains wanted to play a game of chess at theclub house (laughter). While the steamers wou'd begoing*from Dunmore to Wateeford, if the railwayD O

was constructed, English letters might be deliveredin Kilkenny and Clonmel (hear) . Theline of packetswas removed, because the South Wales railway wasnot then completed. He was interested because hewas the parish priest of Dunmore, and if the railwaywas made he would have to pay more income tax(laughter). This was a national undertaking, and ifthe present dock was not large enough, there wasplenty of stone, and they could run a break-waterout further. Dunmore was sheltered from everypoint but the South East , and the pier might be ex-tended at a small cost (loud cheers).

Mr Barron considered noth ing was more unfortu-nate than for any one to persuade people that thisline will not pay. The Tramore line, which had beencondemned in the same way, had been most produc-tive. The directors of that line were ready to carryall on the Dunmore line for the costs out of pocket ,being satisfied that the profit they had on the passen-gers travelling by their own line would amply com-pensate. The resolution before the meeting did notbind them to one particular line, and he consideredit hard ly candid of Capt. Newport iu seconding theresolution to speak against it.

Captain Newport considered he acted with perfectcandour—the promoters were not candid in not firstgoing to government to know what they would do toimprove or extend the pier. He was in favor of abill , but not the one proposed.

Mr. Barron continued to say that it was likely allthe mails for America would go from Milford—thatthe Irish letters form three-fourths of these mails—that they would be likel y to be all despatched fromMilford , and if the packets were put on to Dunmorethey would come here and be distributed over theSoiith of Ireland. If, on the other hand, Limerick orFoynes were made the Transatlanti c packet station ,the mails would cross Ireland to Dunmore, EN ROUTEto London—but apart from this there would be suffi-cient local traffic to make this short lin e pay.

Capt. Newport—I was not understood. I saythose gentlemen who came here did not come armedwith authority to say if the rail was established thesteamers would be revived.

The Mayor put the resolution which was carried.AMerman Carroll snid his vessels eame Jo DIIH -

more and never met the inconvenience complainedof by Captain Newport.

Mr. Elliott said that a committee should be ap-pointed.

Mr. Lloyd proposed the next resolution.Mr. Edinond Power said he wished to second the

resolution , as he was more or less interested in theproj ect. He hoped it would not be considered hewas actuated by selfish motives, as he had been fortwenty years try ing to promote the establishment ofrailways, or " iron streams," as Lord Stuart culledthem. " So far back as 1835, he, with others, madeefforts to pet what was known as Lady Glengall' sbill for making the Limerick line extended , andthey could not get as much money as would m:ikeone mile out of the proposed seventy-five. But thedesire for railways Aid not exist then as it does now.He threw himself into the Tramore line, and he,as well as Mr. Massy, had worked hard to promoteits interest , without receiving a penny reward, norwill they until it is a good paying line. He hadnow thrown himself into the present undertaking,and as a portion of the line will run through his pro-pertv , he was prepared to give his land for nothing(app lause). He was one of the deputation whichwaited on Lord Waterford , who received them in adignified and proper manner, and said he would doas much a3 nny other landlord ; but he (Mr. Power)told the noble lord that that would be doing nothing,as others had said the same thing, and some oneshoul d begin. He was at first more favourable tothe direct line, but when he saw that could not bemade, he consented to the other and agreed to givehis land to make the line. Lord Fortescue hadwritten a letter promising to do what other landlordsdid , and he now hoped he would now do as LordWaterford did. The requisition was signed by 120gentlemen. Now, let one hal f put 4|]wn1.tV:'L!?l'Jn.':5railway would be made. A draft prospectus was inthe room, and let a subscription fi sl be opened atonce. He considered Mr. Di»rgan's terms most bene-ficial and liberal , and they ought to be met in anequal ly liberal manaer.

Captain Newport—Does that resolution bind youto any particular point ?

Mr. Power—Yes.Capt. Newport—I think Mr. Elliott 's plan for the

formation of a committee to consider the most ad-vantageous route the best.

Mr. Elliott explained that in making the sugges-tion he had done he did not wish to throw anydifficulty in the way.

Mr. Clarke—If we look at the plan through amicroscope, great difficulties will appear ; but if welook at them through a telescope, they are not visible.We should not be deterred by the difficulties whichCapt. Newport sees. We have never heard of theloss of one of the steamers at Dunmore or elsewherewhile they were trading here (hear).

Mr. Denny was sure Capt. Newpor t was actuatedby the best motives in the views he had taken ; buthe (Mr. Denny) would say, make the railway first,and then go to the government and tell them theexpense that had been incurred ; ask them for themails, and he was sure they would not refuse (hear.)

Mr. Albert White—Accept the offer now made ;the government, I have reason to know, will neverdo anything for Dunmore until some change ismade, as all their attention is turned towards short-ening by two hours the passage between Holyheadand Kingstown. All we want to raise is £7,500.

Mr. Esmonde thought assistance might be had forthe pier, as there was a sum of £71,000 to the cre-dit of the Ballast Board when the light honse dueswere consolirlatpd.

Mr. Lloyd—The Wexford people are trying to getthe mails to Wexford, and unless we stir ourselveswe may lose our opportunity. They have had ex-perimental trips, &c. He would prefer the directline, if possible ; tbut half a loaf is better than nobread ; they had to take the present line, or to takenothing.

Mr. White said that Mr. Dargan was interestinghimself in Wexford, and if Waterford would nottake his offer, he will at once push Wexford forward.

The resolution was then put and carried.Mr. Bolton proposed the uext resolution. Much

had been said about the difficulties of Dunmoreharbour ; but the practical reply was, that Mr. Dar-eran , after consideration , had decided to make thisline on the terms mentioned. One of the advan-tages Dunmore possesses is that vessels , can proceedimmediately toA.sea which they cannot do from Pa*:sage. It was intended to run a railway to Fishguard ,but that was given up, because it would have costtoo much to make a h arbour. Wexford has no rail-way to it, while Waterford has two. The Wexfordlines run northwards, while ours run vesterly ; butif we are apatheti c Wexford may seine the advan-tages to which our position entitles us. MilfordHaven promised to become a place of great trade ;the Liverpool houses were forming establishmentsthere, so that it was of great importance to Water-ford to avail of the present opportunity .

Mr.Barnes, in seconding it," said that although themud accumulated, yet originally there was 24 feet ofwater in Dunmore.

Mr. Harvey, before the resolution was put, wishedto ask a question. They were now come to the mar-row of the proceedings ; he thought they had an ex-cellent offer, but he wished to know was this to bean independent company or not?

Mr. Massy said that as vice-chairman of the Tra-more line, nnd directors of the Limerick, of the En-nis, and of the Foynes railways, he had attendedmore to hear what would be said than to take muchpart himself. He was empowered to express Mr.Dargan's views, and he thought they were wise inacting as they had done. Mr. Dargan will wait forhis money, and he therefore thought that £3 pershare per annum would be sufficient for a call. Itis proposed that the line shall be a seperate and in-dependent company for the present ; but provisionwill be made in the act to amalgamate it with theTramore line whenever the shareholders desire to doso, which he had no doubt will be done in a year ortwoi JHe'aasumed that the line would pay £40 perweek or £2,000 per year, and the expenses wouldriot be "more than £600 per annum. Mr< Massv

The resolution at>d prospectus were adopted.-The high sheriff (Mr. Hassard) said the meeting

ought not to pass over the handsome manner in whichthe Marquis of Waterford and Mr. fidmond Power hadcome forward to aid the undertaking ; and he hadgreat pleasure in moving the thanks of the meetingto th em, and that the landowners along the line be

requested to aid In furthering the object.Mr. Charles Newnort.seconded the motion, which

was unanimously adopted.John Esmonde, M.P., was then called to the chair,

and a vote of thanks was moved to the Mayor byDr. J. Mackesy, seconded by H. Denny, Esq., andpassed unanimously.

A share list was opened and 280 shares weretaken. The shareholders immediately met andelected a provisional committee, whose names willbe found in the advertisement

BOARD OF GUARDIANS— YESTERDAY .Guardians present :—FRANCIS H. DEVEREUX , Esq,

in the chair ; Messrs. Patrick Keily, V.C., ThomasDillon , Michael Roberts,, John Carrol l, AnthonyCadogan , Richard Phelan , Andrew Mackay, RichardWalsh, Richard Gamble , Capt. Anthon}', CaptainLewis, Thomas C. Spencer, Denis Kelly, JamesO'Brien , Walter Hally.

The clerk read the minutes of previous meetingand the commissioners' correspondence ; the latterwas of an uninteresting nature.

A report was also read from Dr. Cavit relative tothe proceedings he had taken under his appointmentby the ooard of guardians, to abate nuisances in thecity and neighborhood for the last month.

Mr. Mackey said Dr. Cavit's attention ou#ht tobe called to a lane or gateway opposite Mr. Keily 'sestablishment in George's street, from which a mostoffensiTe effluvia arises.

Mr. Burke—Dr. Cavit is "no more." (laughter).His month has expired.

Mr. Burke reaa the financial report, by which itappeared that nearly £900 had been collectsd andlodged during the last week by the collectors—andthat the balance now due to the treasurer is only£1605 !

The Chairman said the rural collectors were doingright well.

On Wednesday a meeting of the relief committeewas held at the board room—Mr. Hearn , relievingofficer , had 82 applications, 10 of whom did not ap-pear—Mr. Power, 5—and Mr. Gorman, 3. Thereare only three person s receiving out-door relief inthe whole union.

A letter was read from, the clerk of the Kilmac-thomas union, stating that the guardians, would paythe amount due to the Waterford union (£1215) asspeedil y as pocsible.

Several reports were read fro m the constabularyof Tramore, Mullinavat , Kilmacow, &c, stating thatnuisances, dangerous to health , existed in thoseneighbourhoods, and ought to be removed.

The Chairman said the dispensary committeeswere also boards of health, and had sufficient powersto abate such nuisances.

Mr. Dillon said he collected rents in parts of theKilkenny portion of the union , and he never sawany places so shockingly dirty as the farmers' yards,adjoining their dwellings, which were masses of filthand dirt.

Orders were given to the clerk to request the se-veral dispensary committees to take immediate stepsto have the nuisances complained of abated.

rEVER HOSPI TAL COMMITTEE.Mr. Burk e read the report of the fever hospital

committee , relative to some charges brough t by Mr.Richard Gamble, one of the guardians , against Mr.Fitzpatrick, apothecary to the workhouse, for ab-senting himsslf without leave from hia duties, andfor allowing a pauper boy to compound mcdicine3for the sick inmates of the workhouse, and that hewas in the habit of continuall y doing so.

The first person examined by the committee wastho boy Rafter , who said he had been for four yearsattending the surgery, and merely rubbed up themedicine in the mortar as he received it from theapothecary. He said he gave up the key of theapothecary 's shop every evening to the master.

Martin Barry, another pauper, stated in his exam-ination that he frequently saw Rafter mix medicinein the absence of Mr. Fitzpatrick , with the physi-cian 's prescription book before him, and give it tothe nurses for the sick people; he often saw Iliftermake up fourteen or fifteen bottles at a time.

Michael Hearn , male nurse, stated that Rafterkept the key of ihe surgery, day and night , in his""Uri^tfrititt , erne of the medical officeM, said "thatRafter-was utterl y unfi t to compound mertvine; itwas generally left compounnded by Mr. Fiizpatrick,with two exceptions.

Mr. Fitzpatrick , apothecary, stated to the com-mittee that he had a friend of his own who was dan-gerously ill after fie physicians' visiting hours—thathe told the workhouse master that he would beobliged to leave town for a day or two, and that hetold Rafter to send for Mr. Harrington if any medi-cine was required to be compounded.

The committee having heard the whole circum-stances of the charges, proceeded to draw up thefollowing report, which was written by Dr. ThomasL. Mackesy ;

REPORT OF COMMI TTEE." From tho statement ma le to us, which wo now submit

to the lxmrd , we have come to the conclusion that Mr.Garablohas proved that an undue latitude has bee i givento the pauper servant of the »potbecary 's department, inthe dispensing of the medicine to the sick inm-ite* of thisinstitution—that the key of the apothecary's shop 1msbeen permitted to remain in charge of the pauper servautnight and day .uutil within the last five or six days, whenhe gave it up to the master, at 2 ) minutes past sixo'clock, p.m., hut had possession of it from seven o'clock,ft-ra.. to that hour - that Dr. Fitzpatrick absented himselfwithin letjal leave, from the eveningof Saturday the 15thto two o'clock , p m-, on Monday the 17th of October.With reipect to the first ch.irge, we find that it has oeenthe piactice for several years, long before Dr. Fitzpatrick'sappointment, and wo woa'd BO fur exonerate tho dootorfrom any imputation on the suhject , but we feel called onto recommend for the future that no person shall be al-lowed to give out or compound medicine but the apothe-cary of the insti tution, or some legally qualified personacting for him in his absence. With respect to the se-cond charge, we consider that it is excee'lingly irregularfor any person fo havech-irgeof the key of the raodioinj aor the shop, but the apo'hecary of the iiwtitu 'ioD , and thatin future the apothecary shrill be considered responsiblefor the kes>pin^ of the medi:ines, and that he shall takecharge and p»>rrnnnent possession of the shop—and thephysicians :ue recommended to make the necessary ar-rangements with Dr. Fitzpatrick and Mrs. Kennely tohave nt all times a small quantity of those meiliciued andmedical appliauce3, under the enre of Mrs. Kennedy,that might be required in the immediate treatment of anurgent case- With respect to the third charge, the com-mittee fully enter into Dr. Fitzpatrick's ferlinga of dis-tress at hearing of the dangerous illness of an intimatefriend , und his natural anxiety as a medical min to visithim without delay, but the committee feel it their dutyto appoint out to D>\ Fitzpatrick the very important dutiesof the apothecary of this Institution, and to reoiramenJin future thiit on no account or . pretext .shall he . absenthimself without fi«t cornn»tiaicating with'the physiplao*of the establtslunent j ijuti making tjj ia . proper arran^.ments for the" a>scbai'g« of his duties.',;r ln conolusiontho committee, feel much pleasure in bearing theirtestimony to the very sitisfactory manner in whichDr. Fitzpatrick , with the above exceptions, has dischargedhis duties not only in this poornouse but at the fever hos-pital, aud we are of opinion that he is entitle;! to everyconsideration ari'l respcot from this board— aud we alsoconsider that Mr. Gamble deserves the thanks of theboard for the independent raauner in which, tie has calledthuir attention to the subj ect.

" M ARK. ANTHONT , Chairman."UNOCCUPIED HOUSES.

Mr. Roberts said Mrs. Goold, of Cork , who holdssome houses in Lady-lane, came before the financecommittee on the day previous, and induced them torub off £11 arrears of the rate of '49, as she allegedthat the houses at the time of making the rate wereunoccupied. They should be slow in rubbing off sucharrears, as he believed several of the houses allegedto have been unoccupied were not so.

During a discussion which ensued on this subject,The Chairman said he recently had had a conver-

sation with some gentlemen of the bar in Dublin onthe subject of unoccupied houses, and they told himit was the opinion of the maj ority *of the twelvejud ges that such houses were not subject to rate. Hesubsequently spoke to the poor law commissioners onthe matter, and thay said they did not agree with thejudges in their opinion, and that if any board ofguardians wished to go to law to recover rates on un-occupied houses they (th e commissioner) would givethem leave to do so (loud laughter.)

The matter here dropped, and Mr. Roberts, whopreviously supported the opinions of the commission-ers, had to give way, not, however, without havingmade a persevering fight, to far as WORDS wereconcerned. " ; ¦ . ' ¦¦ ' ¦ ' '

Keily'o correspondence with Lord Fort««cu« on tlisubj ect of Mr. : Dillon's qualification to'act as poo*law guardian. :He protested against the intToducUqj iof any snch topic in the absence of Mr. Keily (hear))He pronounced Mr. Dillon 's conduct, on <tEtt occvsion as unfair and unmanly (hear) to introduce tbsubject behind Mr. Keily 's back-(hear). ' He (MiCadogan) had written to the commissioner's to kneif Mr. Dillon was qualified, under the cirrnumstanceand facts he had stated to them, to act as a', guardiat[Here Mr. C. read his letter to the comnj i>is»ionCTand their reply thereto, in which they 8tJ -te^

belief that Mr. Dillon was not, under i ^^JJJJsumstances of his removal of residence, ™*&ijg£fiedj. Knowledge, continued Mr. C, is jRf^W/he did not, or at least he was not certain, toatchange of residence disqualified a man from being ftguardian. He was also told that Mr. Dillon wainever qualified to be a guardian (hear, hear). Th»commissioners in their letter say they were "advised"that Mr. Dillon was disqualified by leaving the pr«.mises out of which he waselected. They, no doubt,took legal opinion, not being lawyers themselves, sothat there can be no douht of Mr. Dillon's disqualifica-tion. Mr. Dillon SUB ROSA (under the rose), endea-voured to pick a hole in one of the nominationpapers of Mr. Keily, who, by the bye, was electedfor two divisions, and if he had not been ao electedhe would have to go back to the ratepayers to be re-elected (hear). 'Mr. Dillon was nothing more thana " caretaker" on the property of Lord Fortescue,out of which he qualified (near). In fact the placewhere he lived was more like a " rookery" than agentleman 's house.

Chairman—That has nothing to do with thequestion .

Mr. Keily, continued Mr. C, offered no offense toMr. Dillon; he merely requested the retnrhing officer(Mr. Burke) to write to the commissioners to knowif Mr. Dillon was competent to act as guardian ,having removed from the house he resided at intoWaterford. He, therefore, apaln pronounced Mr.Dillon 's conduct on that day fortnight as unmanlyand ungracious towards Mr. Keily. He said whenhe spoke to the Rev. Mr. Cantwell on the matterthat tho Rev. gentleman cried down tears (hear).

Mr. Dillon—I never said a word of it ; there ituot a word of truth in the report.

Mr. Cadogan continued—He had a most distinctrecollection of the words having been used by Mr.Dillon (hear). How preposterous to state such anabsurdity.

Mr. Dillon—I said no such thing.Mr. Cadogan—On that occasion Mr. Dillon fum«d

and foamed, and was greatly excited.Mr. Dillon—Capt. Anthony, was I excited?Capt. Anthony hesitated, and appeared at a Ion

what answer to give.Mr. Keily—I suppose, captain , he was not foam-

ing out of the mouth ? (laughter).Mr. Cadogan here read the report of the proceed-

ings of the board of guardians from THE N EWS, inwhich it was stated that Mr. Dillon said the Rev. W.Cantwell " cried down tears" when he told him Mr.Kiel y was trying to disqualify him a9 a guardian .Mr. C. also read the Rev. Mr. Cantwell's letter inreply thereto, which appeared in the last number ofTHE N EWS. Comment , said Mr. Cadogan, on sucha nonsensical observation is unnecessary ; the sillyobservation brings its own refutation with it. Oneof the finest and most intelligent men in th» conn-try to be put in such a ludicrous position was toebad : it was too farsical.

Mr. Gamble—Read the commissioners' letter toMr. Burke ; it appears they blew hot and cold.

Mr. Burk e here read his letter to the commiisionenin which he explained the whole circumstances of thscase, as to the facts, in the most explicit manner-he stated in his letter that Mr. Dillon was rated at£65 for Summprville , and for his present residing inWaterford at £35. Mr. Burke next read Ihe com-missioners' reply to his letter, in which they statedthat if Mr. Dillon had paid the last rate, and vuentitled to vote for a guardian, he was qualified toact as guardian.

Mr. Cadocan moved a resolution to the effect thatMr. Dillon was not qualified to act as a poor lawguardian.

Mr. Dillon—I do not care one farthing for th»board of guardian?, or for your motion.

Mr. Keily seconded Mr. Cadogan 's motion. H»said on that day fortnight, when this subject hadbeen introduced , he was enjoying a dav 's sport atthe races of Tramore. On that day Captain Anthon*.. —. in ihu wimiiT unti mr tnnt-iiu UgUt 'frl "allovf ] t t t<(Mr. K.'s) private letter to Lord Fortestue to b#*read (hear).

Mr. Spencer said Mr. Keily stated that he. had twoguardians if Mr. Dillon was disqualified.

Captain Anthony—I could not know the purportof the letter till I heard it read.

Mr. Keily said Lord Fortescue had no right tosend his lettter to Mr. Dillon—it was bad taste, tosay ths least of it, to do so. Did Mr. Dillon , I aiV,pay the last rate ? ¦

Mr. Dillon—I will give you no answer about it .Mr.- Keily, to Mr. Burke—Was it paid IMr. Burke—Yes.Mr. Keily had proceeded to read the commit-

sioners' letter to Mr. Burke, in which it was stated" if the last rate was paid he was qualified." Wiiit as owner or caretaker he paid it ?

Mr. Dillon—N o, as herd.Mr. Keily—If he paid it he charged it to Ml

principal (hear). " Silenoe," said Mr. K. ''girMconsent."

Chairman—Mr. Dillon Is not obliged to aniwtryour questions. " ,-

Mr. Keily continued—I am one of the ratepayer!of that divison and Mr. Dillon does not represent myfeelings—neither does he those of the maj ority o(Jwratepayers of that division. [Mr. Dillon—I Jingoyou and the poor law commissioner! to 8contJ _ jwrote to Lord Fortescue, and he did not writein reply. [Mr. Cadogan—Does he know hof towrite ?J (laughter). " I have no obj ection thatmy letter to his lordship was published bj fore th»world. The Rev. Mr. Cantwell was placed by Mr.Dillon in a most ludicrous light [Mr. Dillon youwere the cause of it]. The " shedding of tears" w«also stated in the •• Mail" report, which I hold in.my hand (hear, hear.) You all know the Rev. MrCant well, and do you think such a man would b*so weak as to shed tears (hear) . The audition <*monstrous—there is no truth in it (hear, hear). Atwe cannot disqualify Mr. Dillon now we will wHh-m to the right about and beat him then [Chiffrman—That is the time to fight, not now] (laugaUT^:Dors Mr. Dillon represent a division from which rjbfclives eight miles ?

Mr. Dillon—No. I have such a scorn for thosewho attempted to diiqualif y me that I treat them¦with contempt.

The excitement of some of thegentleinen engaged inthe controversy here became very great, and stronglanguage was used at both sides,

The Chairman rose, left the chair, and said—I ad-journ the board.After comparative quiet was restored, Mr. Deve-

reux was induced to resume the chair, in order toenter on real UNION BUSINESS .

Mr. Keily said he would not resort to improperlanguage, or personal abuse, as he had too much respectfor the Chairman to do so, as Mr Dillon had done.£Mv. Dillon—No, I did not.] You, said Mr. K.,/¦"laid you treated us with scorn (hear).

Chairman—M r. Dillon mentioned no names.Mr. Cadogmi—How inconsistent he is—he votes

for the liberals in Waterford , and for the Tories inKilkenny (hew).

Mr. Carroll—I move that we resume business.Mr. Gamble—I second the motion.Mr. Keily—I shall leave the odium where it rests,

and shall not say another word.Mr. Carroll—We were a long time peaceable, and[ hope this termination of the Turkish war will end

all ncrimony (laughter).Business was then resumed , and several refractory

boys were brought before the board and severely ad-monished , with a throat of expulsion if they did notmend their manners.

The master produced an excellent warm plaidwool shawl , rmnuf.ictured in the workhouse—th e costof the inattriul was about Is. 3d., and the shop priceof such an article would be 2s. Cd.

After the books, &c, were signed the board ad-journed.

The town clerk (Mr. O"Bricn) read the minutes oflont meeting with a report from the finance commit-tee, recommending the payment of £150 law ex-ponsi-s.

Resolutions were road from the chamber of com-merce Mid the harbour board against the provision!of the improvemen t bill.

Also a report from Dr. Cavet stating that the pri-vies in the citv were in a very bad state, and that hehad found tin; poor more ready to remove their smal idung h'-api than the rich their large ones (hear). —Referred to strert committee.

IMPROVEMENT BILL.The Mayor then opened the proceedings on this

Important question ,agreeable to notice, which hareadby referring to what had happened in the councilwhen the matter was first mooted, lie saw somegentlemen th 're who had taken the improvement billin hand?. The first motiou was made in favour of itbv Mr. Dobbyn.

Mr. D ihhv'n—You spoke to me first on the Quay.The Mayor then read Mr . Dobbyn 's remarks on

And Mr. Gallwey, sa;d theMivor <l a»reed with Mr. Dobbyn as to the impor-tance of a police bill. " The Mayor then read iromthe minute book of the council several resolutionsrelative to this subject—one was appointing a com-mittee of the whole council to draw up the bill—or-derine &<• I'1-11 t0 bc print ed—order ing the Mayor todraw up a draft of the bill-to embody into the \Va .?yford bill the clauses of the Limerick bill-tlij

The Mayor said he read from the records of thecouncil • however it mattered not who seconded themotion ' His worship then read Sir John Young 'srenlv to the council , m which Sir John Kii . l that go-vernment would support the bill. Also a letter fromMr Bal ^r , parliamentary agent, offerin g to get thebill'passed throi'.?h the House for £500. The mayorthen took up th« " Mail ' newspaper, and said thatthe clauses quoted in that paper and commentedupon were not the clauses of the bill before them.The public ho said , should not take these clauses ascenuine, because th,-y were falsified in every respect(hear hear)- He had no objection to the pressmaking; whatever comments it might think fit, but tocomment on fabricated clauses was most unprece-dented He therefore hoped the public would placeno reliance on the bill as published in the » Water-ford Mail" (bear, hear). He showed that thetaxation under the ne>v bill would be less on thecity than it is at preseut. Is it fair that tue cityihould pay for lighting, paving the rtreets &c forDeraons living in the country ? (hear , hear). A m i

THE ¦WATERi?O_lD NEWS, _^gS^^^lSlSMBIs not the trade of Waterford leaving the city, andfinding other channels? The question theft is, whe-ther an improvement bill is not required in the ab-stract ? He said that no chamber or board had aright to th row out a bill because they might disap-prove of it. He would be sorry that the councilshould undertake to get any bill passed that did notmeet the approval of the citizens of Waterford (hear,)One matter more—which however reluctan t I maybe to occupy the public time on—cannot in justiceto myself be left unnoticed. My name endorsednpon the bill has been made outside this room, thesubject of ungracious comment. I might contentmyself with saying that as one of the promoters ofthe bill, I had a right, totally irrespective of thecouncil , to endorse and authenticate my work. Imight say—what any lawyer knows to be the case—that the preparation of this draft is not necessari lyan act of council—that it comes within none of theprovisions regulating corporations. I shall notdo so. I prefer the simple statement that thecommittee of the council were pleased to be-stow on me this mark of their favor and approval,considering, as I presume they did , that in my pre-sent corporate office there was nothing inconsistentwith the legitimate exercise of my profession (hear) .This act was not the less gracious from the circum-stance that the proposer and seconder of the resolu-tion appointing me were gentlemen whose opinionsoutside the council have often been dissimilar tomine. I did hope they felt, as I feel, conscious tomyself, that from the moment I was honoured wilhyour almost unanimous suffrages, I endeavoured tojud ge with an impartial mind , and to decide with animpartial voice every debated question that camebeiore me. I did also hope that the influence of myposition might do much to mitigate the bitterness ofopinion , and the acrimonious rivalries that seldomfail to arise in every mixed association of our citi-zens. And , gentlemen , I had a further ambition—I trust a laudable one—that my year of office mightbe coupled with the introduction of a measure calcu-lated to confer weight and dignity, and an enlargedand just influence on your council , and extensivebenefits on the city and citizens you represent. Theaim and object of modern legislation are munici palnelf-government, giving to ths citizen the choice ofhis representatives , and allowing to those represen-tatives to decide upon what is most to his advantage.And gentlemen modern legislation recognizes the fur-ther fact that itisb y a properl y appointed municipalitywith liberal powers of action , and with officersand functionaries , and a jurisdiction coextensivewith the district it represents, that 1000 measures ofreform and improvement may be accomplished,which otherwise it would be impossible to achieve[cheers], I cannot and will not suppose that thiscouncil so ill understands its own mission, its digni-ty, and I will say its duty, as to come to a decisiontantamount to a want of confidence in itself, and torepudiate the process and privileges which the legis-lature offers to your hand [cheers], Dublin, Cork,Belfast , and Limerick , have alread y outstri pped usin the race for advancement , they will still continueto do so, and we, 1 fear, shall justly become con-temptible , if our miserable jealou sies should preventour imitating their example and availing ourselvesuf those local powers which are every day improvingtheir trade anJ manufactures [cheers].

Mr. Dobbyn said he casually met the mayor in themarkets , and remarked to him that the present po-lice bill was defective. Buthe (Mr. Dobbyn ,) soughtno taxation , no honours, no money. He attendedthe committees throug h curiosity. He objected toseveral clauses of the bill, and amongst them thatwhich thre w the sheriffs overboard. In fact thewhole thing was a kind of revolutionary doctrine, towhich he was quite opposed (hear , hear).

Dr. J. Muckeay said he was opposed to the tollson farmers.

Mr. John Power said it did not require muchpowers of oratory to prove the necessity of the bill(hear) ; for there was scarcely any difference ofopinion that such a bill was required. The time hadcome when thev could not put off an improvementbill (hear). As long as he knew the trade of Water-ford complaints had been made of the want of a pub-lic market, and how could a market bc establishedwithout having tolls on it ? Two pence per barrelwere allowed for the weighing corn ; but thefarmer would have a saving in it as everythingwould be weighed nett (hear). As regards theclause in the bill aboutthe brid ge, it was betternot have it in it at allj (hear). He condemnedthe present grand jury system, which gav e power toa number of persons—appointed by one man—to taxthe citizens (cries of hear, hear). He hoped theywould have the manliness not to allow themselves tobe put down by* any body outside of doors, who ob-jecte d not to the bill , but to the corporation (hear ,hear). In fact the whole cry is, " abolish the cor-poration again " (cheers). You have ten weeks to gointo the details of the bill. There was anotherobjection made , that they wanted to tax the city.Now he paid as much taxes as any man in the city ,thoug h he might not pay as much income tax(laughter) . He would suggest that a special commit-tee, l)o appointed to go through the bill again , andsee what improvements can bc made in i t ; let thecitizens support a committee, let the chamber ofcommerce appoint a committee, to assist inthe inquiry (hear, hear). 11« concluded by mov-ing that this corporation uo app ly to parliament topass an improvement bill which will suit the wantsand wishes of the citizens , and that the necessarynotices be inserted in the papers for that purpose(cries of hear , hear).

Mr. Gallwey objected , on the ground that Mr.Power was not adhering to the business notice of theday.

Ciipt. Newport approved of 10 or 50 clauses' in thebill ; but he objected to about 70 (laug hter). Butthctc was something behind the cmtiiin to which hehad a great objecti on. He had been abouta qnarterofa century on grand ju ries, and he never heard theiracts impeached until to-day. He denied they werenot a responsible, body, because they take a solemnobli gation before the jud ge of n».size. Ho consider-ed it mischievou s, to attempt to abulir .h grand juries(hear , and laug hter).

Counsellor W.ilj h—You are not in order. Readthe notice of motion.

Capt. Newnoi -l—It is not fair to cushion the dis-cussion on the (j ue stion. As to tolls, he thought th >harbour board ought to be the bwt ju dge oftolls. As a wh:i!e the bill is decidedl y objectionable(hear , hear, and no , no.)

Al l. Cooke objected to the bill from the shortnessof thi' time to consider its provision s, thoug h he full yadmitted that there was not a city or town in thisking dom in which an improvement bil l was morewanted t!i;:n ill the city of Waterford 'cheers).Tins bill goes to impose heavy rates on the city, andthe poor nitos alread y S<. in the pound (hear , hear. )

Aid. I'helan — 1 take the average for the p.ist threeyears, to bn but \*. in the pound (hear, hear)

Aid. Cooke contended that the poor rate was 8s.in the pound : and that , added to other rates, wouldmake the v.ho 'o about £1 6s. l td. in the pound(crus of hear , h 'ar, and no, no). He admitted theprinci ple of iue bill ; but never approved of thepurchase of the brid ge. He then moved an amend-ment , that the present improvement bill be notproceeded with in th? ensuing session of parliament.

Mr. Grubb—We all agree to an improvement bill(hear , hear).

Mr. Gallwey said , before Mr. Ridgway went outof town he called on him to say that he was opposedto the bill.

Counsellor Walsh rose and supported t ie amend-ment ; but in so doing he condemned the grandjury system , because one man had the power ofbringing together a number of men who had theirrcspou&iblc power of taxing his fellow-citizens.Such power ought to be invested in a regularly electsed body. He opposed the principle of putting toll-on those outside the city, and defended the practicesof corn and other merchants. He said the corpora-tion had powers under their present act which theydid not use, and urged them not to thro w away theirmoney unnecessaril y (cheers, and counter cheers).

The Mayor said the tax under (he new bill couWnot exceed 5s. in. the pound (hear, hear) .

Mr. Feelinn—And this 5s. will cover lamp tax—watt-ring—repairing the streets—markets , &c. Peo-ple should not run away with the story. Have thepeople of Dublin no sense (hear). What we want isto amalgamate six or seven taxes into one tax (hear ,hear). The grand jury cess is collected at 9d. in thepound , and £100 a year is paid to a treasurer

Mr. Gallwey—The butter taster.Mr. Feehan—The butter market would be no ad-

ditional cbst on the city. Since the 1st of April MrCarroll weighed, in his own stores 13,500 firkins ofbutter ; and 4,000 were weighed in other stores.

Mr. C. Newport—No nor the half of them ; thatwss more than came into Waterford during the year.

Mr. Feehan—In Cork the corporation have no re-

not remain behind other cities in the race of improve-ment. No corporation would ever abuse a publictrust. The present corporation were 13 years inpower and they never exhibited any desire to levyrates (cheers). \

Mr. Denny—The question is, at this period of theyear, whether we are in time to digest the bill in orderto meet the approbation of the citizens at large.Mr. J. W. Strangman said at the chamber of com-merce on yesterday that the different bodies of thecitizens ought to form themselves into a committee,to make the bill agreeable to all parties. That bill,he said , is condemned not only by your own body,but by the citizens at large. There is no use mspending money in liti gation. He would thereforesuggest a postponement of the measure (hear, hen_).

Mr. Blake explained .flis interview at the chamberon Wednesday, and 9aid that—to humour them—hewith themselves abused the corporation , still he nevermet a more impracticable body of men (laughter andcheers. The only thing he praised the chamber peo-ple for was, they gave him (Mr. B.) unlimited libertyof speech (loud laughter).

The amendment was then put to the vote by theMayor, when there appeared :—AGA INST THE BILL FOR THE BILL

Town Clerk—Gentlemen , the voting is 16 to 20cheers).

The amendment was declared to be lost, and theoriginal motion carried amid considerable demonstra-tions of applause.

Counsellor Walsh wanted to put another amendmentwhich was rejected , after some hot words betweenhimself, Mr. Blake, and others.

Mr. Denny asked Mr. Meagher, M.P., what mightbe the expense of nn opposed and nn unopposed billin parliament ?

Mr. Meagher said that no expense woul d attend anunopposed bill ; but if the bill be opposed , he thoughtit better to postpone it. He could not say what theexpense might be.

Mr. Feehan said the wide street commissioners ofCork expended £500 of the public money in oppos-ing the Cork improvement bill ; but parliamentpassed the bill and made them refund the moneyback out of their own pockets (hear, hear, andlaughter).

A Voice—That 's the way the chamber will bcserved (a laugh).

Mr. Feehan proposed a meeting of the publicbodies of the city with the view of so arranging thebill that all could agree to it. Passed.

The meeting soon after adjourned.The division at; the Town Council on the 1st inst.

ENGLISH NAMES.Names were first used among men for distinction.

The Jews gave names at their circumcision , theRomans on the ninth dny after their children 's birth ,and the Christians at their baptism ; which nameswere generally intended to denote the future goodwishes or hope of parents towards tkeir children.

English names of baptism are generally eitherSaxon , as Edmund , Edward , Edwin , Gilbert , Henry,Leonard , Robert , Richard , Walter , William , Src. ;or from the bible and testament, as Abraham , Isaac,Jacob, John, Thomas, James, &c. ; or it sometimesconsists of the mother 's surname, or occasionally oftwo Christian names, which is still customary inother countries, especially in Germany.

The French called names superadded to the Chris-tian names, surnames, that is, SUVER . N O M I N A .

The Hebrews, Greeks, and other nations of anti-quity, did not aflix surnames to their families, butcounted thus : for example, the Hebrews, MclchiBen Addi—AddiBen Casam, &c; the Welsh, Hughnp Oiven, Owen ap Rhesc ; the Iri sh, Neal macCon—Con mac Dermoti , &c.

As Christian names were given to distinguish per-sons, so surnames were used for the distinction offamilies.

About A.D. 1000, the Frcncli begun to tnke sur-names, with DE prefixed fora place, and I.E prefixedfor some other qualifications. The English alsoadopted the use of surnames, but it was not until thereign of Edward I. that they became general.

Offices of honour have given rise to many sur-names ; for example, the Duke of Ormond , and hisdescendant took the surname of Butler, their ancestor,Edward Fitz-Theobnld , having been made Butler ofIreland ; and again, John , Count Tanquerville, ofNormandy, being made chamberlain to the king ofEngland, about six hundred years since, his descend-ants still bear the same coat of arms, by the name ofChamberlain.

At first the Eng lish gentry took the names of theirbirth-places, or habitations, for surnames, as Thomasof Aston, or East-town ; Joh n of Sutton , or South-town ; and, as they altered their habitation , so theychanged their surname. When they afterwards bo-came lords of manors, they styled themselves ThomasAston of Aston , John Sutton of Sutton.

Among the Saxons, the common people added forsurname their fathers' names, with son at the endthereof, as Thomas Johnson, Robert Richardson.They often took their father's nickname, or abbre-viated name, with the addition of an s, as Gibs, thenickname of Gilbert ; Hobs, of Robert ; Nick , of Ni-cholas ; Bates, of Bartholomew ; Sams, of Samuel ;Hodges, of Roger ;—whence Gibson , Hobson , Nick-son, Batson, Sampson, Hodson, &c. Many weresurnamed from their trades, as Smith, Joyner, AVea-ver, Walker, Goff, &c. ; or fro m their employments,as Porter, Steward , Shepherd, Cartar, Spencer,Cook, Butler, Kemp ; or from their places of abode,as Underwood, Underbill , also Atwood, Atwell , At-liill ; or from their colours or complexions, as Fair-fax, Pigot, Blunt, or Bland ; and from birds andbeasts, as Arundel, Corbet, Wren , Finch, Woodcock,Lamb, Fox, Mole, &c.

The Norman descendants in this country, about200 years after the Conquest, also took their fathers'Christian names for surnames, with Fitz or Fils pre-fixed , as Robert Fitz-William, Henry FitzGerard ;afterwards Williamson, Gerardson, &c.

The .Welsh were the last to adopt surnames, whichthey did chiefly by'dropp ing the a in ap, and annex-ing the consonant to their fathers' Christian names;as, instead of Evan ap Rice, Evan Price; and for apHowel, Powel ; ap Hughe, Pughe ; ap Rogers,Progers, &c.

The most ancient families in this country are suchas have taken their names from places in Normandy,or England and Scotland, as Evreng, Chaworth, Sey-mour, Nevil, Montague, Mohun, Biroa, Brughes,Clifford, Berkley, Arcy, Stourton Morley, Courtney,Grandison, Hastings, &c, which formerly had deprefixed , but now made one word , as Devereux,Darcy, &c.

THE A MERICAN LANOUAGE .—An Englishman,perusing an American newspaper, exclaimed impa-tiently, on noticing some of Webster 's orthographi-cal improvements—" These people ought to be de-nied the use of the English language if they cant 'ttreat it better ." " English language !" echoed aYankee, without removing the cigar from betweenhis teeth ; " guess your 'e mistaken , boss ; it 's theAmerican language." " American 1" repeated thewondering Englishman. " Guess it 's that ," saidJonath an, coolly; "we've annexed it." "Annexedit! what next 1" said the Britisher, by this time alittl e excited. " Why, maybe Groat Britain ," saidhis communicative friend ; " we might annex thatwhen we find time." " Ah ," replied the English-man, " when you 've done taking Cuba !"

CllINESE MODE OP LI IADINO T I I K I H PlfiS. 111England we must humour and amuse our pig, or hewill not move an inch , but a Chinaman has neithertime or inclination for such an occupation , so whenhe takes his pig to the market he merely passes uthin cord through either ear of the animal , in theform of a hoop, to which a piece of rope is attached ,which the Chinaman holds in his hand ; in the otherhe carries a thin cane, but it is rarely nee'ded, as thepig proceeds most quietly and decorously as if hewere goingto a funeral. We have seen scores of pigstaken to market in this way, and never saw or heardof an instance of misbehaviour on the part of any ofthem.

There exists in some part of Germany a law toprevent drinking during Divine service. It runsthus :—" Any person drinking in «n alehouse duringDivine service, on bunday, or other holiday, maylegally depart withoutpaying."

IRISH MANUFACTURE.(From Mr. Maguire 's new boohon the Exhibition of '5!f.)

OI.OVKS.

From hats to glovds, the transition is as natural aafrom cloths to hats. Here, also. I am proud to say,the Exhibition has proved the superiority of the Irishmanufacturer and worker, in material , style, cut, andfinish. That lady or gentleman who purchases animported glove, in preference to that which is home-made, is not doing a sensible or a prudent act.Why do I say this? Simply, because the best foreignglove is not better in any respect than the beat Irishglove—because the best London-made KID glove israrely imported, or, if imported , cannot be sold ascheap as the best Dublin , Cork , or Limerick kid—because the majority of importe d gloves are made byframe, instead of by hand , and that the stitching byhand is much surer and firmer than sewing by ma-chine ; as, if one stitch given in a hand-made glove,that stitch alone goes, while if a stitch given in a ma-chine-made glove, the whole finger is apt to go—and ,lastly, because the article that is generally sold, ismade of what in the trade is called "seconds," the rawmaterial being what is technically termed " slinklamb," and not kid ; the difference of which may bebetter understood when I state that "seconds," or" slink lamb ," can be bought by the manufacturer atfrom Is. 3d. to 2s. per dozen , while kids range from8s. 6d. to 14s. per dozen. What is usually calledFrench kid , is, in reality, Italian lamb. So that myadvice is—stick to the Irish kid, which will give goodwear, and look charmingly on trie hand. It is rather acurious fact, that the first double-sewed kid glovemanufactured anywhere, was made some thirty yearsago in this city by the well-known and long-estab-lished house of Condon. Wash-leather and doeskingloves had been so made, with doubel stitching, butnot kid.

The exhibitors of gloves are Miss Condon , Mrs.Hreakwell , M. Moltard , Mr. Thomas Francis, andMr. M'Grath , of Cork ; Mr. J .unes Supple, of Water-ford ; Mr. Buke, of Limerick , whose celebrated" Limerick gloves" sustain the high reputation ofthat much-admired articl e ; and Mr. Thomas Lawes,ofFcrmoy. Mr. W. Dowden , of Cork , also exhibits ,but not as a manufacturer. The whole display afl'onlsa conclusive proof of the spirit and energy of themanufacturer whose goods are exhibited , and of theexquisite neatness and beautiful delicacy of the workof the young females whom they extensivel y employ.

CUTLERY.Under the head of cutlery we have had some admi-

rable contributions from eminent houses, which havelong enj oyed a deserved reputation for the greatsuperiority of their manufacture. The razors, scis-sors, and penknives of R.& W. Bradford , mid AlfredElliott , of Cork ; Samuel Bradford, Clonmel ; Nicho-las Hayes, Limerick ; James Bates, Richard Ilurles,mid the celebrated William Lamprey, Dublin ;—these are so well known, and so highly prized in Ire-land, as to require no further notice than the men-tion of the fact that they contributed cases full oftheir best work. Curiously enough , the two greatestgeneral s of modern times, Napoleon and Wellington ,both of whom now belong to history, and thanwhom, perhaps, there were no two better jud ges ofsteel , were more thim once indebted to the houseof Bradford for the luxury of a clean slave !Consul and Emperor Napoleon used and prized thepeaceful steel of the Hibernian maker. This trademay, at some future day, become again as extensiveas it once has been ; but though the manufacturersof London , 8hefHcld , and Birmingham , may floodthis country with a Variety of goods of every quality,and of every price, still it is impossible that they canbeat the first-class Irish manufacturer in the sterlingvalue of the article which, in spite of prejudice, hemay yet venture to brand with an Irish name. Thegreater number of the makers whose names I havementioned are also exhibitors of surg ical instruments.The other exhibitors of the latter are, John Barker,M.U., of the Royal Society, Dublin ; together withFannin and Co., and Francis L'Estrange, and Alex.Robertson , of that city. George Agar, Kilkenny,exhibits a saddler's guage knife.

REVIEW OF THE BRITISH CORN TRADIDURING THE PAST WEEK.

( From the Mark Lane Express. )The wheat trnde hns remained quiet throughout the

week, indeed for several weeks past there has been a ces-sation or" speculative operations, and nmny parties whobought early, in anticipation of the rise, have beenrealising. I'urclinsi-rs for consumption aro meanwhiledeterred by the hi gh value of the article, and the some-what stringeut state of the money market, from buyingmore tban they need for immediat e use, there is conse-quontly little or no excitement ; but thoagli grent cautionis exercised, there is a healthy consumptive demand ,which has thus far been sufficient to take off the suppliesas they have come to hand , and prices have been tolera blywell supported. There are still good stocks of foreignwheat and ilour in London , Liverpool, and the otherprincipal ports, and the prevailing belief is, that farmershold quite as much old wheat as usual at the correspond-ing period of the year. That such is the case is trulyfortunate—for without this reserve the least check in theregularity of the supplies from abroad might have beenproductive of inconceivable inconvenience Formers aronow very busily employed with wheat sowing, and thedeliveries arc likely to bo short all through this month ,whilst the demand for seed will absorb a large portion ofwhat may be brought forward at the markets iu thoagricultural districts

The arrivals of wheat coastwise into the port of Lon-don have been very small , only 2,151 qrs. having beenreported up to Saturday evening. The quantity broughtforward by land carriage from th« neighbouring eountie3has also been small ; but the inquiry hating been slowthroughout the week, the supply has proved quite suffici-ent to satisfy the demand. Buyera acted with extremecaution both on Wednesday and Friday, and though fac-tors refrain from pressing sales, prices were the turn infavour of the purchaser. The arrivals of foreign wheathave been tolerably good tli)3 we*k, 47,001 qvs. bavin"come to hand. Of this supply a large portion is fromHussia , and further receipts from thence may be calcu-lated on—the shipments -from St. Petersbn rgh , &c ,having been considerable during the hist month or two.The country demand for foreign wheat hue not beennearly »» active HS of late, and the local millers hav e con-ducted their operations with more than ordinary caution.Importers have, however, manifested no particu 'ar anxie-ty lo pres.ssales ; ami thnuqU the tone of the trade wasmoiv subdued, goal qualities could not be bought onlower terms on Friday than on Mondav. The transac-tions in iinatinR cargoes of wheat have not been very ex-tensive durin',' the lost week. There have been very fewotters from the Black Sea, and what has been offeredfrom thence Las boon at prices relatively above thoseat which purchases might have been made of similarqualities on the 8j»t. For wheat free on board at Halticports the pretensions of sellers have also been very high ,which has prevented much being done.

The nominal top price of town manufactured flour hasnot changed. Arrivals from America have thus far beenijuitc moderate, and fresh qualities Imving become scarce,previous terms have been well supported.

The receipts of barley coistwise have been quite trfling ;and notwithstanding tbe hign prices current iu most ofthe country murkots, the deliveries of this grain fromthe growers do not increase materially.

Tho inquiry for malt has been tolerably active , andthe former value of the article has been well maintained

The arrivals of oata from our own coaatbave amountedtoonly W) quarters , from Scotland 187 quarters, fromIreland 4'210 quarters, and from abroad 15,823quarters.The supplies of this grain have for several weeks pastbeen less than the quantity required weekly for the con-sumption of the metioji olw, and the stocks iu hands of thedealers have therefore been rather freely drawn upon.The quantity of oats in the port of London is decidedlysmall, ami , unless tho arrivals increase considerably, thisgrain u likvly to become scarce during the ensuing win-ter. There has not been mucli life in the trade this week ,but holders have insisted on fully previous prices, whichnendy buyers have been obliged to pay.

Very full terms have rj een asked for floating cargoes ofIndian corn, and 43s. per quarter has been paid for ar-rived Odessa.

CAUTION TO IRISH LAJtoRr.ns—We have recentlyreceived authentic information that an attempt ismaking to enlist in Ireland large companies of menby contracts to go to Aspinwall or Panama as labor-ers on the Isthmus railroad. We bog of our ex-change papers in Dublin , and in the South , Westand North of Irelan d, as an act of charity and ofduty to warn the people that this is a contract fortheir almost certain death. Since our warnings ofthe fatility of foreign laborers there, Irishmen cannotbe found to go from the United States. Let thepress in Ireland , and of their charity let the priestsand all true friends of the laboring Irish, declare tothem that the climate of Panama is certain disease,and in seven cases out of ten certain death to themif they go there to labor.—[N. Y. Freeman.]

^ WEXFORD

AS A PACKKT STATION.

vIn our last number we published the report of ameeting of shareholders in the Waterford and Tra-more Railway, in which the Chairman, Sir JamesDombrain , expressed his apprehension that, unlessthe inhabitants of Waterford actively bestirred them-selves, Wexford , from its pinquity to South Wales,was likely to become a packet station, and thecounty rendered the great artery of communicationbetween the two Islands, thus cutting oft' Waterfordaltogether from the main route, and rendering herport of mere collatoral importance. Nothing couldgratify us more than to see the city of Waterfordprogress in wealth and commercial prosperity tothat point, which her geographical position andsplendid river so eminently warrant. Indeed soIrish, or rather cosmopolitan in our notions are we—that we entertai n no local j ealousies towards anygiven port or locality in the Island, feeling persuadedthat every advance made in the right direction byeven the most distant from our precincts, sends animpulse throughout the land, which is beneficiall y feltin every part.yBefore the question of a Trans-Atlanticpacket station was mooted, Galway, Cork and Lime-rick harmonized most warmly in throwing into boldrelief the natural capabilities which each and allpossessed. Mr. Charles Arthur Walker once put thecase of AVexford in a nutshcM. It is this.

"1 DUNGARVAN UNION—THURSDAY ,[FROM OUR REPORTER .]

At the usual weekly meeting of the guardians thefollowing members were in attendance :— •¦

ROBRRT LONGAN , Esq., J.P., V.C, in the chair.Lord Stuart de Decies, J . Quinism, Esq., Mr. Byrne,Mr. P. Ronayne, Mr. J. Wall, &c.

Mr. D. Fitzgerald , assistant clerk , in the absenceof Mr. Barron, read the minutes of the proceedingsof the previous board-day, together with a feiv com-munications from the commissioners, including onerelative to the formation ofasanitary board in each ofthe electoral districts in the union , in order to checkas much as possible the spread of any epidemic dis-ease, which may appear in the rural districts.

A letter was read by the chairman from BenjaminPurser the previous board-day, demanding paymentoi' £29 5s for 100 empty sacks that were given underflour, and not returned when demanded ; and alsohis letter of the 2nd instant was read to the board ,withdrawing all claim of charging the union with theabove sum.

After a few words from Lord Stuart dc Docies ,the board entered into the following resolution :—"That the board having had Mr. Pi -.v.s-i 's letter ofthe 2nd instant under consideration, whevj in ho with-draws all claim on account of the empty sacks which ,in a former letter , he had proposed to charge theunion with , as not having been returned to him whendemanded , the guardians deem it expedient that theclerk should request Mr. Purser to inform the boardwithin what period the sacks in question were deli-vered at the poorhouse, with the view of enablingthem to ascertain whether the store-keeper has beento blame."

The resolution having been read, the master statedthat in justice to the present staff of officers, Mr. Pur-ser's letter should be more specific as to dates, inorder that the board may ascertain if it were in theirtime that those sacks in question were delivered ;and after a few other remarks from the master thesubject dropped.

DIRECTION TO MEDICAL OFFICERS.The board had under consideration that the several

medical officers in the union should have the signatureof approval of the medical inspector of the district ,Doctor Purcell, attached to their requisitions of medi-cine previous to their placing such before the board ;and in the event of such neglect of duty on their partthe board cannot entertain the app lication.

Doctor Drew's attention was called to their resolu-tion of the 20th ultimo, which requires the medicalofficers of dispensaries to forward the requisitions formedicine. &c. to the medical inspector of the districtfor his approval previous to their sending such requi-sitions before the board.

KILMAC'J'IIOMAS PAUPERS.The board had also under consideration the above

subject, and after a due deliberation , they finall y ar-ranged that no more paupers from that union will betaken into the Dungarvan workhouse.

His lordshi p then suggested the propriety of ad-dressing a letter on the subj ect to the chairman oftho Kilmacthomas board , which was unanimouslyadopted.

COWS FOR THE UNION.The board had in contemplation for some time past

the propriety of purchasing two new milch cows forthe use of j he house, and the great advantage whichmight arise to the union by the purchase of snob.

Air. Byrne—There has been paid out of this^nionover £-100 annuall y for milk , and I should think itwould be well to purchase two good cows for the useof the hoiiRo.

Mr. Quinlan—It certainl y would be most desirableon the part of the guardians to use every means intheir power to lighten the rates as much as possible ;but he wished to know if there was a sufficient sup-ply of fodder for cows ?

Mr. Byrne said there was a large supp ly of greencrops going to waste, and he believed they were onlythrown into the dung-pit.

Mr. Wall said the fueding of two cows would beexpensive.

Mr. Byrne—No; you have a large supply of greencrops, and that with a little hay, would answer verywell.

Mr. Quinlan—What might two good cows cost?Mr. Wall—About £20 or £22.Mr. Byrne—You could not get two good milch

cows much less.The following resolution was then proposed and

carried :—" That a cheque for £20 be made outfor the master, for the purpose of buy ing two milchcows."

CLERK S OFFICE.The office which was prepared some time since

for the clerk, the board were of op inion , would bemore advantageous to have it changed to a store-room for clothing, and a resolution to that ofFeet wasproposed and carried , viz. :—" That the office pre-pared for the clerk be temporary used as a store-room for the clothing now in the dormitory ."

BERLIN , NOV. 4.—The last English courier fromPetersburg]! arrived here on Wednesday afternoon ,in four days, by land. From a private source I leanithat the Emperor has for some time past, since hisreturn from Germany, borne an unusual aspect of so-licitude and anxiety ; that the whole garrison ofMoscow, which after all consisted onl y of 15,000 men ,has been drafted oil' southwards, and that a Few daysback three officers from every regiment of the guardsstationed at Petersburg] were appointed to proceedto the seat of war ; that the tone of conversation inRussian society on the subj ect of Turkey is extreme-ly lowered of latp , and is far from being so selfsatis-fied and confident iis it was a couple of months ago.The Russian Government lias ordered three armedsteam " ships to be built in America, to be deliverednext May ; the largest, to carry 110 guns, will bringout the parts of thu two other vessels, which willthen be put together at Cronsttidt.—[Times;' Corres-pondent.]

INDIA AND CHINADates are from Calcutta to October 3d , Bombay

14th , Burma!), September I Till , and f long-Kong,27th.

Our troops in Burmah are in a state of siege, andthe country in possession of the followers of Mea-tonn , and other chiefs of equal rank , who give outthat they are acting under the authority of the Kingof Ava.

Our steamers were fire d upon on going up the river,and the country is becoming a desert.

Reports are current that a Russian army is invad-ing Kiva and Bochara , that Russia has entered intonit alliance with Dost Mahomet and with Persia, andthat a large Persian army has been collected in thethe valley of Sooltania for the purpose of co-operat-ing with Russia against Turkey. Trade is fair. Ex-change at Calcutta, 2 1.

Shang-hai has been occup ied since 7th Septemberby a band of insurgents. At Ainoy, on the the 12t!iSept., the rebels comp letely routed a body of govern,inent troops.

ri lE WAR(From the Times.)

The reports received from the banksof the Danubeconcur in indicating an active prosecutive of hostili-ties. That the Turks crossed the river in some forceat Widdin , nnd established themselves at Kalaf.'.t , onthe opposite bank , is beyond question , and it is alscstated that two thousand Ottoman troops have ap-peared at Giurgcvo, and made an attack upon thattown. The situation of Giurgevo is about midwaybetween Widdin , where the Turks first crossed , andBrailow, where they were making preparations tocross ; so that the passage of the Danube has pro-bably been either executed or attempted at severalpoints. Giurgevo too lies exactly in the route toBucharest, the head quarters of the Russians, so thatan advance at this point might quickly lead to somedecisive results.

We are not informed, however, whether the move-ment iu this direction proceeded beyond a demon-stration , or whether the Turks effected a lodgmenton the Wallaehian bank. It appears almost eertainthat their main force hasbeen concentrated at Kalafat,ond that their present line of operations is intendedto take a north easterly course fiom that place toKrajova. The movements of the Russians are notclearly ascertained, but they seem to have left thepassage of the river undisputed , and to have after-wards marched towards Krajova and Kalafat for thepurpose of meeting the Turks. That the advancedguards of the two armies have encountered eachother is general ly understood , but with what resultswe are not accurately apprised. One report repre-sents the Russians and another the Turks as retreat-ing, the latter statement being the better authenti-cated , as well as the more probable, of the two ;though , of course, no general conclusions could besafely drawn from skirmishes in which either partymight largely outnumber the other. The wholeTurkish army, however, was reported to be movingby .its left , and before this time a general engagementlias probably occurred between Kalafat and Krajova ,or in the vicinity of the latter town. The Principali-ties, it is said, have been placed by the Russian com-mander under martial law , and all communicationwith the Turks prohibited under pain of death .

( From the Dail y News. )As is usual in the case of wars in which , though

the scene of action is remote, the nation takes a livel yinterest, we are inundated with vague and inconsist-ent reports respecting the warlike movements on theDanube. Tho difficulty of arriving at the truth isincreased in the present instance by the necessarylaconic nature of despatches transmitted by electrictelegraph. It may be as well to add that the matteris not mended by the unfortunate character for men-dacity which the Vienna telegraph has acquired.This mendacity is a subject upon which we havealready warned our readers—a warning that cannotbe too frequently repeated.

This premised , we proceed to the attempt to elicitsomething like an intelligible story from the latest de-spatches. The operations of which they contain ac-counts are obviously mere affairs of outposts, in whichthe combatants on either side do not appear on anyoccasion to have exceeded, if they amounted to, 3,000men. The incidents whichhave excited most interestand discussion are— • [5!

¦• ' • ..An affair between Kalafat'and Krajoa, in which

the Turks are alleged. itc> Mhih had the better ; andan afl'air in the neighbourhood of Giurgevo, to whichthe appearance of an advantage for the Russians isattempted to be given. ' With regard to the formerit may be conducive to distinctness to premise, thataccording to intelligence from Vienna on Thursdayevening, the Russian troops in Lesser Wallachia werebeing withdrawn, and concentrated in and aroundK rajoa. Krajoa is nearly north-east of Kalafat, anddistant about sixty miles in a direct line. Nearlythirty miles to the north-east of Krajoa is Slatina. Adespatch sent off from Vienna on Friday, mentionsthat a sharply contested affair, in which an advancedparty of the Turkish army had been engaged with2,500 Russian cavalry, had taken place between Ka-lafat and Craj oa, and Iliad terminated in the retreatof the latter—in a direction, however, which seemedto point at Slatina rather than Krajoa, as the positionwhere they intended to make a halt. This story isprobable enough, and if true merely corroborates theinference which we drew from the first reports ofmovements in the vicinity of Kalafat after the pas-sage of the Danube by the Turks, that Omar Pachais pressing on in hope to tike the Russians in flankor rear, and that the latter are calling in their ad-vanced parties to avoid being cut off in detail. Therencontre appears to have been an incidental skirmishthat can decide nothing.

Thisveswl hw been the Bc'eWbfa.fragjqal eventsthe coasttof Afirical.,I She•.sailed from London aboA18 months a^Oj[ on a trading.Voyagei "to AfncaTnjjpwner,tCttptain Connack, being marter. , ;He tradedwith the King of Tabor and his people on credit,^be paid by Palm oil, &c., and after every exertionfailed in getting what he was promised, he then tookthe King and some of his people and kept them onboard his vessel until their part of the contract shouldbe fulfilled. ¦ The King's subjects felt ..indignant t|this, and were determined to have revenge and cam^off in their canoes with a number of caskvfilled withwater, and only two of Palm oil, and gotonjj ^i*^vessel. Poor Captain Connack was , compreteh/thrown off his guard, although well-armed, andwltain the act of stooping over the side of the vessellooking into the canoes laden with oil, as he thoughthe was stabbed from behind by the King's son andpitched overboard. They then attacked and mur.dered the remainder of the crew except one boyfrom Ireland, who has remained at the Americansettlement on the coast, in expectation of getting apassage to America, where his father and motherreside.

The King and his men took the ship close inshore, determined to burn her for her copper and.iron, but in two days after the brig Tweed of BristolCapt. Boarder, chanced to anchor at night it thesame place, and hearing of what had happenedwent on board , and induced the natives to give herup to him on paying something for her, and ran herto a place of safety by a part of his crew, and Btibsc*quently gave her in charge to Captain Stafford , firstofficer of the Caleo of Bristol , to bring her-liome,with a crew of three white men and Kromaena, andon the 22nd of October she was dismasted in a heavygale, near the Western Island.

Captain Cormack is nearly related to Dr. MorganO'Coiinell, of Kilmallock , having been married to asister of that gcntlemau. His afflicted widow andonly son live at Lee Kent , near London , where theydaily expect the unfortunate captain. He was theowner of the "Heroine," and was commencing tomake a rapid fortune.—[Cork Examiner.]

CHOLERA IN BELFAST, DUBLIN, CORK,AND IN ENGLAND.

A large ship called the " Kossuth," from Liver-pool to New York, has put into Cork harbour withcholera on board, and 21 passengera having died.She had over COO passengers. Another vessel calledthe " Guiding Star" has put into Belfast under simi-lar circumstances, after losing 11 persons by cholera.In both cases medical aid was immediately procured .It is hoped that the disease will not extend beyondthese shi ps. The " Freeman 's Journal" reportsthree deaths in a filthy part of the city of Dublin, ahofrom cliolern . We xhould have a sharp look out inthis port of Waterford.

( From the Cork Examiner of Wednesday evening.)The precautions taken since the arrival of the

" Kossuth," with cholera on board , have as yet ap.parently resulted in softening to some extent the fear-ful aspect which it presented on its arrival . A hulki_ converted into an hospital. It was got ready withthe greatest expedition possible, and towed close tothe vessel, when those already laboring under theterrible disease, as well as those attacked with pre>monitory symptoms, were at once removed into it.—The total deaths since the arrival of the vessel in theharbour, have been twelve. The number of cases atpresent, however, is only four, but there are sevenpersons laboring under diarrhoea. The fatal effectsof this arrival have been , we grieve to say, alreadyillustrated by a melancholy example. A very de-cent and well conducted poor man, named Bride, aninhabitan t of Whitegats, who traded to this vesselsince her arrival with provisions of the humbler sort,caught the ep idemic yesterday and died early thismorning.

The disease is still chiefl y confined to the Germanemigrants. A considerable number of the healthyIrish passengers have left the vessel and gone intothe town , and many have gone to their respectivehomos in the country ; but the German portionshow little disposition to leave.

I N ENGLAND .—The death s reported aro 2.3 inDundee (4th to 6th), 2 in Arbroath (4th to 5th), 2in Forfar (lth), 1 in Clifton (1st), 2 in Ely (4th), 1in Luton (5th), 1 in Newcastle (4th), and 9 in theMetropolis.

It wiil thus be seen that Dundee has sneceeded toNewcastle as the head quarter * of the epidemic . Tbesanitnry state of Ely—also attacked—is reported tobe as bad as it was in IS l 'J . Soliam is also repre-sented as filthy in the extreme. From Liverpoolthere is a better report. The general health of thetown is represented as continuing to be good, thecases of malignant fever being few, and principallyconfined to the German emigrants , anu those whohave lately arrived in Liverpool appear to be in ahealthier condition than those who left Germanyduring the month of September and beginning ofOctober. There have also passed through the Ger-man Emigrants' Home, at Bootle, 214 male adults,113 female adults , 5.3 male children , 34 femalechildren , and 11 infants. The establishment is statedto be in a healthy situation , and kept in good order.

MELANCHOLY DEATH or A YOUNO GENTLEMAN .—We deeply regret to have to announce the death ofafine young gentleman under peculiarly painful cir-cumstances. The deceased, Mr. Howard Strattan ,aged abont 16, was son of the late John Strattan ,Esq., cousin to the Earl of Roden, and agent to hiiDundal k estate, who died only a couple of month ssince. It would appear that the deceased was onton Monday in perfect health and vigour, and trans-acted business through the town , though it is statedthat since his father 's death he has not been at allwell. In the course of the night he is supposedeither to have fallen while in a state of somnolency,or to have precipitated himself out of the bedroomwindow at the family residence, in Seatou'n-plaee,and on being missed by his brother , who slept in thesains apartment , was found in a state of almost insen-sibility in the yard, from whence he was brought tohis room , and although there was no appearance ofany of the limbs having been broken or severe ex-ternal fractures, he expired at an early hour yester-day, his death having probably been occasioned bysewre internal contusions.

SUICIDES IN PARIS .—Suicides in Paris continue tobe frequent. One, which occurred on Thursday,was attended with singular circumstances. A youngman , M. Auguste D , living in the Rue StDenis, employed in a mercantile firm , did not appearat his office at the usual hour. His employer went tosee after him, and learned from the concierge thathe had gone out shortly before finely dressed. Yes-terday morning he again absented himself from hisduty, and his employer went again to seek after him.The corcierge told him that he was in his own room.He went up but received no reply to his knocks.He then sent for his father, and the door was opened.He was found lying dead in the bed—he had com-mitted suicide by means of the fumes of charcoal.A letter, addressed to his father, left open on a table,requested that no attempt should be made to discoverhis reason for committing suicide^—it was, he said, asecret, and should dief with him. It turned out oninquiry that, after leaving home grandly dressed, h«went to pay visits to all hi» friends. They aakefLhimif he were engaged to figure in any irop6*fc)&£U»jmony since he was so fine ; but he gaily &icH&g—" Oh, dear, no ! The whim of going to XOSimy friends seized me, and I am come to shake J^EB!hand !" In the evening he'went to his cafe, andplayed his cards as usual until ten o'clock. He.thenwen t to a hairdresser's shop, and had his hair cotand dressed. On going home he carefully PM***r>aDer over the'crevices of the door, windows,,«c.»°fhis room, to prevent the entrance of the • slightedportion of air ; and he then lighted the pan of «haf»coal which he had previously prepared.. AnQtbWyoung man, a shopman employed in a Knen-d apeM.establishment, also committed suicide. ye»teid«ybjmeans of charcoal in his lodgings in the Rue .IB*?™£'-To prevent any pain, he stupified. himself by JW™£ing the liquor produced by boiling down .aj^™1?-of poppies.—[Galignani].
