[aulO.6t Bro Bono Pubiico* WOOLLEY'S VEGETABLE ANTIBILIOUS AND FAMILY APERIENT PILLS. These Pills hiving stood the test of nearly half a cen- tury, the present proprietor has been Induced to bring them more prominently before the public , fetling assured that they onl y require to be tried to prove their very great superiority as a family medicine over the majority in use at the present day. They are more particularly recommended for the following complaints , viz. , indiges- tion , loss of appetite , flatulency, acidity , heartburn, head- ache , giddiness , dimness of sight , costivtness , all bilious complaints from whatever cause , cutaneous ernptions and impurity of the blood generall y. For correcting the sys- tem after indulging too freely in the luxuries of the table thoy will be found eminently successful , and where the syntem Is Buffering from excess of any kind they are very efficacious. As a general Famil y and Antibilous Medicine , Woo '- ley ' i Pills are acknowledged to be one of the most valu- able preparations ever h traduced. Their effect is sore, but so geutle that penons ot the most delicate constitution may have recourse to them-at any time. They contain no mercury, antimony, or any deleterious mineral or drastic purgative , but are composed entirely of herbs of* medicinal nature , which act directly on the stomach and liver , freeing them from the various disorder* to wticb they are subject. These pilis are not reeommeuded as a universal remedy but simpl y for such disorders as ars engendered In the sys- tem through biliousness or a disordered state of the sto- mach and bowels; as it is a fact well known t< all medical men, that a disordered stomach is the cause of the majo- rity of diseases to which the human frame Is subject, generally occasioned by a sluggish action of the liver and bowela, which directly or indirectl y influences the whole system, and if not nipped in the bud, lays the foundation of some of the most dangerous diseases. It is needless to dwell on the manifold advantages which the heads of families secure by possessing a medi- cine of such known efficacy ; one that may be resorted to with confidence in temporary illnesses, such as are con - stonily occurring in all families, and which if not checked at once too often prove very serious in their results Every one should bavea box of these valuable pills always at band. To Emi grants to all parts of the world , bat more par- ticularly if leaving a moderate or cold climate for a hot one (which will almost invariably be found to affect (be bilious system) these pills are Invaluable. All about to undertake a sea voy a ge will find them the best preventive to sea sickness ; and, if taken according to tbe directions , they at the SBtne time prepare tbe system to resiit any Jn- jurioos effects incident on change of climate.

Bro Bono Pubiico*WOOLLEY'S VEGETABLE ANTIBILIOUS

AND FAMILY APERIENT PILLS.These Pills hiving stood the test of nearly half a cen-

tury, the present proprietor has been Induced to bringthem more prominently before the public, fetling assuredthat they only require to be tried to prove their verygreat superiority as a family medicine over the majorityin use at the present day. They are more particularlyrecommended for the following complaints, viz. , indiges-tion , loss of appetite , flatulency, acidity , heartburn, head-ache, giddiness, dimness of sight, costivtness, all biliouscomplaints from whatever cause, cutaneous ernptions andimpurity of the blood generally. For correcting the sys-tem after indulging too freely in the luxuries of the tablethoy will be found eminently successful , and where thesyntem Is Buffering from excess of any kind they are veryefficacious.

As a general Family and Antibilous Medicine, Woo'-ley 'i Pills are acknowledged to be one of the most valu-able preparations ever h traduced. Their effect is sore,but so geutle that penons ot the most delicate constitutionmay have recourse to them-at any time. They containno mercury, antimony, or any deleterious mineral ordrastic purgative, but are composed entirely of herbs of*medicinal nature, which act directly on the stomach andliver , freeing them from the various disorder* to wticbthey are subject.

These pilis are not reeommeuded as a universal remedybut simply for such disorders as ars engendered In the sys-tem through biliousness or a disordered state of the sto-mach and bowels; as it is a fact well known t< all medicalmen, that a disordered stomach is the cause of the majo-rity of diseases to which the human frame Is subject,generally occasioned by a sluggish action of the liver andbowela, which directly or indirectly influences the wholesystem, and if not nipped in the bud, lays the foundationof some of the most dangerous diseases.

It is needless to dwell on the manifold advantageswhich the heads of families secure by possessing a medi-cine of such known efficacy ; one that may be resorted towith confidence in temporary illnesses, such as are con -stonily occurring in all families, and which if not checkedat once too often prove very serious in their resultsEvery one should bavea box of these valuable pills alwaysat band.

To Emigrants to all parts of the world, bat more par-ticularly if leaving a moderate or cold climate for a hotone (which will almost invariably be found to affect (bebilious system) these pills are Invaluable. All about toundertake a sea voy age will find them the best preventiveto sea sickness ; and, if taken according to tbe directions,they at the SBtne time prepare tbe system to resiit any Jn-jurioos effects incident on change of climate.

Tbe following are selected from amongst the manythousand eures yearly effected by WooIIey's AntibilloasPills :—Copy of a letter fr om Mrs. Wy les, of Borden, new Sit-

tlngbourne, dited March 4th, 1854.To Mr. J. J. Sanders.—Dear Sir ,—I have taken your

" Woolley'o Antibillous Pills," for some time, and foundthem to be very beneficial to my health and useful In myfamily. Yours respectfully, MRS. WYLES,SURPRISING CURB OP BILIOTTSNB SS AND BIOK HEAD-ACHE AFTBB, VARIOU S OTHER MEDICINES HAD PAILEDCopy of a letter from Mr. Robert West of Liquorpond

Street, Boston, Lincolnshire, dated June 5th, 1854.To Mr. Sanders.—Sir,—Having for a long time been

a sufferer from a disordered stomach (which I supposedto proceed from bile), together with dreadful sick head-ache ; and having tried various other remedies withoutderiving any r»liff , I WHS persuaded by a friend to giveWOOIXBY'S PILLS a trial. I followed bis (my friend'*)advice and am happy to say, after using three smallboxes, I fell quite well and free from what I suffered, endnow enjoy my usual health , and have the pleasure ofboinjr, Your obliged servant, ROBERT WB8T.

CAPTION.—The present proprietor of these plll«r a«• security to the public against fraud (knownig that someunprincipled vendors have been in the habit of sailingtheir own preparations when asked for Woolley's Medl-cines) has caused a fac-simlle of his name to be attachedto the wrapper round each box, without which nono isgenuine, and to Imitate which is felony.

The U.S. steamship 1'acijie arrived at Liverpoolon Tuesday, after one of her usual quick trips of tendays. She brought 119 passengers, 959,498 dollarson freight , and dates to the 5th instant. GeneralCampbell hos been appointed minister to England ,in room of .George N. Sanders, whoso appointmentby the President would not bo ratified by the senate..

The New York Herald announces the arrival atNew York of Dr. Cottinan , an American gentleman,,who has lived for scveralvyear3 at St. Petersburg,and who has been entrnsted by the Czar with a mis-sion of the highest importance—viz., to propose acommercial treaty, and to dispose of Sitk a, the latteron very advantageous terms, to the United Sta tesGovernment. According to the Horaltl, the Czar," in speaking of our relations with Spain , says hoconsiders that Cuba is ours by right of her geogra-phical positiou, and that, as she commands the en-trance to the Gulf, we should take her, whether theSpanish government is willing or not !" Dr. Cott-nian , the Czar's agent, while in London , en route toNew York, addressed a letter to the United StatesConsul in London, speaking in the harshest terms olthe proceedings of the British squadron in the IJultic ,and accusing tlio crews of violation of Finnish wo-men.

On the 3rd the committee on foreign relations ofthe Senate reconsidered their determination to re-commend the 10,000,000 dols. war approp riation. Avote was then taken , when the committee were foundto stand three and three. Under their rules the pro-ject was defeated, and no report can be made.

The reciprocity treaty has been raitficd by thesenate.

A terrible tragedy occurred at the St. Nich olashotel, New York , on the 2dinst., by which ColonelLoring, of California, lost his life. It appears that analtercation took place between him and a gentlemannamed Robert M. Graham , of New Orleans, who ran acane sword through the body of the former, killing himoutright. An inquest was hold on the body of Mr.Loring, and the jury rendered a verdict of homiciileagainst Graham. On the 3d inst. the editor of the DailyFreeman, of Brooklyn , J. N. T. Tucker, while ina state of temporary dcrangemont or drunkenness, itis hardly known which, murdered one of his childrenand his wife, and in attempting to save o second WOBterribly wounded. On the 2d instant , PatrickM'Malum killed his wife Catherine by striking heron the head , in his room, Hcstcr-street, New York.

The wife of a blacksmith , named Thomas Gal-lagher, was taken sick, and expecting to die, shesent for Father Malon ey, to atten d her in her lasthours. To this Gallagher was opposed, and forbadethe priest entering the house. The clergyman, ofcourse, insisted on goinjr i"« when Gallagher struckhim a violent blow on the head with some weapon ,and felled him to the ground.

REV. Dfe. CAHILL IN/ WA^RFOifi^ lIn a recent impression we.: directejttthe attention -

of our readers to the \opportunity about Being af-forded them of hearing the Rev. Dr. I^ABHX preachon* Sunday nest, tho 20th instant,, in' St. John'schurch. We r.ow feel increased pleasure in 'refcrring'to the announcement in our advertising columns to-day, that " this learned scholar, at the request ofrespectable citizens,, will deliver a course of scientificlectures in tho Assembly-rooms, Town Hall, com-mencing on Monday next , the 21st August."

The Rev. Doctor 's profound knowledge of the in-teresting subjects on which he is to lecture, and thetruly popular manner in which ho treats them, will,we arc certain , procure for him a most numerousaudience. As a scientific lecturer, he has gained theadmiration of all those who have had the fortune ofhearing him , not onl y in Ireland , but aiso through-out England and Scotland.

FACTS TO HI: RBur.Mnr.r.r.D.—We find in the localOrange paper of Wednesday, an article lamentingover the fate of tho Catholic Church , because itsministers are not generally selected.from the familiesof respectable " Cawtholics ," instead of from 'thepeople. This organ calls them low and mean , with•A selection of other ugly names. It is a veryremarkable fact, however, that low and mean as theyare, tho " respectable church" is ever ready andanxious, and even overjoyed , at receiving one ofthem. Receiving did we say 1—no, but when oneof these low and mean priests happens to fall athousand times lower—when he is expelled formisconduct, or disgraces himself beforo his" fcllow-"ien—a paternal " protection society " has its armswide open to hug him to the very bosom of the" respectable church." Yea, it is also a fact—andone perhaps worth knowing—that the most admiredmembers of tho clergy of the established church inthis country arc those who have been raised fromthe counter, the humble school, and the work-shop.To prove our case we need not, happily, go out ofWaterford ; but suffice it to say, that the fatherof protesting Martin Luther himself—was, like theApostles—an humblo young man, and not theoffspring of a respectable Ctiwtlwlie. We hope ourcoteinporary will remember those facts. Wo can givemore if he be fond of further illustration.

EST We have received an excellent letter signed" J. L. P." on the Bilberry and Barronstrand-streetprojects. It came so late that we cannot possiblyfind room for it till our next. We agree with thewriter that Messrs'. Murphy. Fortnnc, Maher , and infact all the inhabitants of Brond-streer , Michael-st.Patrick-street, John-street, &c. &c, should be upand stirring in favor of opening Little Barronstrand-street. Again we say the work is as feasible as theopening of Olave's-lane ? Where is the difference,except that it might cost a few pounds more ? Weare sure that the difference, and more than that ,could be made up at the Cross alone. Let the Cor-poration summon their jury, value the place (wemean the island-side only) and then tell the publicthe sum that may be required. The corporationis in the habit of supplying half towards such im-provements. Let us have no more about Bilberry.It is too far away. Let us begin near home. Someof our corporators think of legislating only for theoutskirts of the city. The patriots of the Tory towerward put out Mr. John Maher because he was awarm advocate of real—not sham—improvements.We trust he may be soon in again. The Conserva-tive lick-spittles, and backers of jobbery—th e mockliberals, and spongers who never give an honestvote, should be all lashed out of the council at thoproper time.

TRAMORE RAILWAY.It will be observed that the receipts on this line

arc now exceeding those on the Kilkenny line bysome few pounds, though the latter is, we are gladto perceive, improving in traffic. Tha Tramoreline is, in fact, only now beginning fo pay. Itwill yet do a great deal more. Mr. Dargan calls itthe " nugget line ;" which is a very tempting, and ,we suppose, a truthful appellation. To him , at anyrate, the people ought to be thankful for the accom-modation which ho has afforded both at this and atthe opposite side of the Suir. From the great rushof persons that we so often sec at tho Tramore rail-way, it is evident that the day is not distant whenthe termini must be enlarged. If, as in the Kings-town railway, persons could enter tho carriages atone side of the terminus, and go out at tho other,more business could be done, and much confusionavoided. But perfection cannot bo expected , atleast for sonic time,, in a line so new.

It is worthy of remark that since this line wasopened , not a single accident of any kind has oc-curred. This is the more extraordinary as on racodays passengers often prefer entering through thewindow rather than by the door.

Inn WATERFOII IJ TERMINUS .— iho terminus ofthe Waterford and Limerick nnd Kilkenny railways,near the brid ge, is rap idly progressing under theable superintendence of Mr. llanlon. When com-pleted tho building will be both commodious andtasteful. At the river side of the terminus will he alarge shed for the storage of goods. At this placewill also be erected a suitable quay, which is to ex-tend 30 yards into the river. Wu understand thatthe railway companies intend to have a small steamboat on the river, which will convoy all kinds ofgoods to and from the Waterford quays. For thispurpose the 40 feet new arch, now being opened inthe bridge, will prove of very great importance.—Would the bridge proprietors now refuse £30,000for their property?

S32?T We are asked why it is that Dean Hoarc,so little known to the great mass of tho people, andwho may be removed from Waterford in a shorttime, should be appointed a governor of the LeperHospital in preference to such men as the parishpriests of Saint Patrick's and Trinity Without 1—gentlemen who are justly revered by the people, andwho know their wants and wishes. We really can-not answer, though the thing surprises us.

To CAR MEN —We are requested to state that ifthe car men of this city only charged two or threepence for what is termed in Dublin a "set down,"they would do much morn business than at their pre-sent charges. No doubt if there was a cheap and aregular charge struck out for car men so many ofthem would not be seen standing idle in the streetsand at the railways. ' A gentleman informs us thata driver abused him in the open street last week be-cause he did not give him more than Od. for a drivefrom the Tramore railway station in the Manor to thebrid ge. He thought six pence enough, as he hadnot been in the habit of paying more in Dublin andelsewhere fur infinitely longer drives.

SAILORS ' HOME .—We are glad to perceive that itis intended to try the experiment of establishing oneof those admirable institutions in our city for theprotection of seamen coming.into tho port. Imme-diately after the general meeting of subscribers inSeptember, we hope the committee will set abouttaking a house suitable for the purpose—one not toolarge nor too expensive, which might gratify someinterested house-j obber, but would kill the institutein a short time with the pressure of rent and taxes.

CONVERSION .—Dunijaroan, Aug. 14.—Last weekthe wife of Mr. M. Mulcah y was received into thebosom of the one true Church by the Rev. Mr.O'Gorman , II.C.C. of this town.

SMUGGLING .—Michael Ilannigan , seaman , wasfined 12s. Od. on last Saturday, at the Dungarvanpetty sessions, for having 13J ozs. of foreign tobaccoin his possession, which was found stowed away inhis pillow.

GST At a meeting of the collectors of the Mathowfund , held in the Mayor 's office on Saturday even-ing, the secretary, Mr. J. A. Blake, announced thatthe sum collected in- Waterford would amount toover £100. Ono of the members stated that a vastdeal of the merit was due to Mr. Blake's exertionsin the matter.

A New Tn A or—Wo perceive by advertisementthat Hugh N. Kevins, Esq., merchant, has an-nounced the sale in this city of a cargo of refinedsugar. This is a now trade in. Waterford , and beingso, we trust it will meet with that success whichall enterprises—but more especially new ones—shoulddemand at the hands of the public. There is yetplenty of money in Ireland if persons could only begot to stir it iu trade.

BsF, The passengers of the ship. George W/titweU,(formerly the Russian ship Nortlen, transferred atthis port,) which sailed hence on the 27th May, pre-sented to the captai n' (James Farthing) a compli-mentary address on arriving in Quebec on the 18thof July . . " ;

TRAM0RE> STRAND GRACES.*The9e races—called the <.',Corintbian|m«*ting"-j-

took plaoe otr thia unrivalled ~ strand on ^Tuesday.The attendance of . people'was very large :;'but tEenumber of horses unusually small. We never ob-served more strangcrS in:Tramdre.'ttfint.we witnessedon this dayi'- With' all due deference-to the' promo-ters of this meeting, we do think that ,-they mighthave.selected some other day besides a holiday forracing amusements. We hope that sucli a mistakewill not occur again.

FIRST RACE.This race did not " fill in" as it is called ; two

horses only having been entered , namely, Mr. Wm.Wall's Harlequin, and Mr.Purcell's Waterford. Thewant of this race caused considerable disappoint-ment, if not disapprobation.

SECOND RACE—FOR £20.This raco was a right good one. The five went

out in slashing style, holding close together thegreater part of the course. Coming to the winningpost, however, Harlequin and Grallagk shot outfrom the rest, running almost head-to-head beyondthu post. In this way Harlequin won the first heatas he did the second ; but , it was the opinion rffmost persons that the fellow was only " foxing"—that , in facr, he coul d have won by more than ahead if he liked. Grallagh, however, performed hispart very creditably. The following ia the order inwhich they came in :—

Mr Wolfs bj; Harlequin , i»<»ed , 12st (Wall) — 1 1MrPliclan '.-i lih Grallnsli .Synl i s t (Sinnott) — 2 2Mr Purccll's bs Watcrforil , Ilst31l> ( .Maher)— 3 3Mr Rico 's l>m Camilla , 5yrs, list (M'Urcath) — 0 0Mr Spencer's bin l-'aith , 5yrs, lOst 71b (Ilogun) 0 0

THIRD RACE FOR. £8.O.ily two horses started for this race. Many

persons thought it would not come off at all, andthe result was, that hundreds left the strand afterthe second race. The subjoined is the order ofrunning :—

Watcrlbrd — — — — I U 2Camilla — — — — 2 1 1

This race wa3 well contested, and though beaten,Waierford Tom, as he is generally called , made anexcellent fight for it. Thus ended the sports of theday. The only accident that occurred was thebreaking of a horse's legs whilst galloping on thestrand. He was the property of a farmer, andworth about £20. The poor animal was imme-diately shot.

POLICE COURT—WEDNESDAY .Ellen Kelly was charged with having on the night

previous obtained from Mr. Wilson, of the Parade,grocer, about ten shillings' worth of tea and sugar,under false pretences, by representing hersel f as theservan t of Mr. John Power, of the Club-house. In-formations were taken , and she was committed fortrial at the next quarter sessions. The prisoner hadbeen formerly a servant of Mr. Power 's.

AN OLD TRANSPORT.Joanna Hearn e, who had been about forty times

before the court for stealing fowl , was arrested thismorning by Constable Pallis, having in her posses-sion three turkeys, which had been stolen fro m AlicePower, near Tramore ; she is remanded till Friday,the 18th instant. She was on a former convictiontransported for fowl stealing, but got off on memo-rial to the lord lieutenant.

TURN OUT IS THE TOWER —On Tuesday eveningnine persons were lodged in the Tower, all , we haveheard , for drunkenness ; but in the course of thenight , when reason began to dawn upon them, andthe fumes of whiskey had disappeared , they marchedup to the governor 's apirtmonts, saw him comfor-tably asleep, and , fearing to distmb his repose, theyopened the outside door in the quietest possiblemanner, and went out on tho quay. But this is notthe most remarkable incident in the transaction.After partaking of some refreshment (?) about town,eight of them returned to their old quarters (th eTower) which thny again entered apparently in thebest of spirits. The ninth man , a farmer from thecounty Kilkenny, took leg bail , and was not seen orheard of since. It is but right to say that the activegovernor , who is himself a teetotaller , never antici-pated such stratagy on the part of a drunken com-pany of nine, whom he had the misfortune to lodge,as he thought, for tho night. Wo learn that whenthe fellows got out their loud shouts of laughtermight be heard at tho Abbey church , pronouncingthe Tower, at tho same time, to be the cheapest, thestrongest , and thu most accommodating hotel iu thocity of Waterford.

N UISANCES —Some persons are up in arms if theyhappen to see a car or cart opposite a man 's placeof business (just as if he could keep them in hisdrawing-rotii 'n), but not a word from them about thefish ollal and other noxious matter to be encountereddaily in Little Barronstraud-strcet and other locali-ties. La;:y corporators and preservers of abominablenarrow lanes, should not forget that cholera id verybad in Liverpool , within a few hours sail of us.

DEATH BV DROWNING .—A fine little girl , elevenyears of age, daughter of Mr. Matthew Harper , ofthis city, porter van driver, was drowned in the rivernt the quay of New Ross, on Sunday evening last.The child had been on a visit with her aunt , and wasplay ing with some other children when she fell outof a boat and was drowned.

H IGH FARES—An influential Limerick merchantinforms us that the high frei ghts of the Waterfordsteam packets are weighing down our local railways.In consequence of this unfortunate circumstance hesays that he, with many others whom be knows, doall their business through Dublin. With ordinaryfares the Wj tferford steamers would nearly doubl etheir present business, and at the same time mate-rially advance the interests of our railways. < If th*port of Waterford got fair play the Limerick lineought to turn in at least £1000 a week, and the Kil-kenny £400.

A LIBERAL DONATION1—We learn that Mr. TobiasWilson, of the quay, has given £1000 towards whatis termed the Church Missionary Society. We aresorry Mr: Wilson did not think of the old adage that" charity ought to begin at home." £1000 givento Mr. T. H. Strongman for the Fanning's institute,would do great good.

It is 'stated on what we imagine reliant authoritythat we shall, have, in four or five weeks, first classsteamers plying between this city and Milford , inconjunction with the South Wales railway, which isnow drawing to completion.

We learn that the Dunmore railway project is pro-gressing very favorably. Lord Waterford and Mr.Power, M.P. are much in its favor. His Lordshipwo hear, is acting most liberally with his land.

BAD R OAD—The road between the bridge and thenew terminus at the Kilkenny side of the Suir, is ina sad state of repair. The railway companies willwant gas for their terminus. Provision jhould bemade for these things before winter sets in.

EXCURSIONS —The Limerick excursion trip onSunday morning brought down about 1000 personsto Tramore.

There was an excursion trip from Kilkenny toDublin on Sunday. The price of the third class re-turn t inkftt was .Is.

{Cp- The Right Rev; Dr. Foran, R.C.B. has arrived inthis city from Duugarvan .

65T William Dargan , Esq., accompanied by Mr.Fletcher, manager of the Kilkenny railway, arrivedin this city on Wednesday. Mr. Dargan seemed inthe enjoyment of good health .

Belfast is the only provincial town in Ireland pub-lishing daily papers. It now prints two, whereasDublin has but three. Cork has not yet one/thoughit has tha electric telograph. An American city thesize of Cork would have eight or ten daily papers.We do not yet despair of bringing out a daily inour own city unpretending as it ia.

SMITH O'Bitir.x—It is said that Smith O'Brienhas accepted the royal clemency, and is now re-turning home from bi3 penal servitude. •

FACTS —It v/ill be seen by our poor law report oftho Waterford union that there were last week' inTramore 2,030 lodgers, and from 500 to COO dailyvisiters.

The sea around the coast of this county is repre-sented to be full of fish at the present moment. Boysare catching them with little, difficulty on the seashore. This is considered a good omen of a plenti-ful han est.' :

MOD.?/*' : . .> ¦ :^,y .£The quay committee reported tnat during the last

five weeks 2510 tons of.mud. had been raised.fromthe river at the quay, at a cost of 9d. per ton—£94I t . RA.

The quay committee also reported they.. had . exrpended £10, voted by the board )for the deepeningof John's Pill, and had raised 'about 200 tons' ofstones and rubbish therefrom. . ¦ : "

MANUBE.The Chairman said there was a question with re-

gard to manure which he wished to bring .under theobservation of the board. The deposit of manurewas complained of, and he wished to know whetherthe deposits complained of were made on the Quayor on private premises. '- ¦ •. ¦. -.' . ¦• Mr. Thompson, as one of the Quay committee,complained of the shipment of offensive soil on theQuay. There was a law to prevent the accumula-tion of dung in private yards within the precincts oftho city, if enforced. There are people at the topof Ihomas-street in the habit of shipping this soil,contrary to a bye law of,the corporation, and theyshould be prevented doing so. .

The Chairman said 'that the deposits and accumu-lation of manure were in localities used for thatpurpose for the last century. He would ask werethey to stop the deposits of manure in certain pcrtsaround the city, an article which was so beneficialto the farmers of the surrounding country. Supposethe corporation bye law was enforced to prevent theaccumulation, how is the manure of the city to bedisposed of ? (hear.)

Mr. Reid said a memorial had been signed by 22individual ratepayers in the neighbourhood ofThomas-street, whose taxation is calculated at£1200, and are they to be annoyed by one indivi-dual not rated at £40. Are they to sit down—thepeople of one of the most respectable streets in thecity—to be annoyed in such a manner with impunity T

Chairman—At present I can fine that man forremoving dung in carts without covers.

Mr. Reid—Cowan is the man who accumulatesthis dung at the top of Ihomas-street, opposite thej ail wall- The day you (the mayor) went to Bristolha was shipping up to'10 o'clock in open carts. Icalled Caffrey 's attention to it, and when Cowanfound I took the matter up he ceased working forthat day.

Chairman—I directly ordered the corporation offi-cials to attend strictly to this matter, and if theyneglected doing so they are guilty of a derelictionof duty.

Mr. Reid—The cart covers are all a farce.Mr. White—I saw a cart with a cover—the cart

was broken, and the street was in a most abominableway.

Mr. Thompson—I would be the last person to doanything that would injure or inconvenience thesurrounding farmers, as the chairman said theyvi ould be ; but he has no idea how this practice ofcarting and shipping is carried on. Night and daythree horses and cars have been plying at this nui-sance for the purpose of shipping it, and the resultwas that several people in Thomas-street could notsleep in then beds in consequence.

Mr. Reid—On that occasion it was barra ck soilwas conveyed through the streets, and week afterweek this work is going on.

Mr. Lawler—If such cases are brought before thebench of magistrates they have full power to abatethe nuisances.

Chairman—Certainl y ; the corporate officers haveorders to bring all such nuisances beforo the bench.

Mr. Thompson—They are able to evade the lawin many instances. The city dung yards should beshifted , like the grave yards, outside the city.

F I N A N C E COMMITTEE.The report of this committee having been read

was unanimously received.uur.Ks.

Mr. White said the hul k built it the Neptunefoundry having been now paid for, they should atonce take measures to contract for another as it iswanted.

Chairman—This is a very important matter.Mr. White—I think it 'should be referred to the

Quay committee to report on it. The amount oftonnage dues decreased £19 11s. 4d. during the lastyear , whilst tho shipping increased 0,000 tons dur-ing the same period. This may appear strange, butit was owing to the trade having been principallydone in small vessels instead of the larger foreignvessels as previously.

Secretary—Flour landed in Liverpool by tho largvessels was sent over hero in smaller ones.

Mr. Ardagh—Increase the tonnage charge on thesmall vessels and you will increase the fund3 of theboard proportionately.

Mr. White—We are quite helpless in that respect,we can 't do it.

Mr. Grubb—We couldn't do it without getting anact of parliament.

Secretary—The pilotage charges are not at theirmaximum yet.

On the motion of Mr. White, seconded by Mr.Grubb, it was resolved on taking into considerationtho expediency of providing a new hulk.

Mr. Thompson observed that the Richmond hulkwas in a very bad state.

S. E. RAILWAY COMPANY.The Secretary read a letter from the South East-

ern railway company, relative to a resolution aboutdeepening the river.

NEW PILOT BOAT.The following tendors, pursuant to advertisement,

for supplying a pilot boat for the use of the harbour,were read by the secretary :—

1.—From George Robinson and Co., of Cork,offering a suitable schooner for the sum of £650.

2.—From Arthur Kavanagh, of Wexford, offer-ing the smack Expert, built in '39, for £550 ; she isC2 tons register by the old, and 48 by the newmeasurement.

3.—A tender from James Beevan, of Liannelly,offering to build a boat, but stating no price.

Mr. White said the Wanderer was offered twiceand refused, as unsuitable. Mr. Coombe, at presentin England, told him previous to going that he wouldvisit the south of' Devon , where the best boats arebuilt, and that he would make particular enquiryabout a boat, and would communicate the result toMr. Farrell for the information of the board. Thequestion is whether it would not be more prudent tohave one boat of their own and one chartered. Bythat means they would be able to ascertain the costof working their own boat, and thereby regulatingtheir charter. Mr. White suggested that the secre-tary write to Mr. Kavanagh to aicertain when hissmack (now in Llan elly) will return , in order thatthe pilot master might go, down and examine her.—Agreed to.

THE " FALCON. "

Chairman—It is time for you to come to a conclu-clusion what you will do with this pilot boat.

Mr. Barnes said the defect—and the only one inhis opinion, is her steering—could be easily cured byshifting her mast about two feet forward. If thatwere don e he he was satisfied she would be fit to beput on duty ; he spoke from experience.

Mr. Lawler said, shortly after the trial at the as-sizes a meeting of the general committee met, onlytwo or three attended—they drew up a repor t, butdid not wish to present it to the board till the othermembers come forward. This much, however^ hewould say, that, from the evidence given on thetrial, coupled with the ju dge's charge, the commit-tee are of opinion that the board are bound to resistthe acceptance of the Falcon.

Chairman—I t is better to wait for the report ofthe committee.

Mr. Nevins—It would be uneourteous to do' any-thing about her till the committee send in theirreport. DREDOB BOAT.

A voluminous report from Mr. Leckey, of Cork,engineer, who inspected and minutely examined thedred ge boat,—with the view to her improvemen t, */possible,—was produced by the secretary. His re-port stated that it would take a sum of £4650 to putit in proper working order.

The chairman said the boat was lying at the quaycomparatively useless, and the question is whether,they would keep her lying there or do somethingelse with her.- : o-:ife :;; ' > ¦

Mr. Nevins read a few extracts fronn&r. Leckey'sreport, one of which stated that iifj ae boat waswanted for river purposes merely, it would cost less,but it would not be of the least use for the harbour.

Chairman asked would it be better to apply thehull for a stage, and the machinery to a properbuilt boat ?

Mr. Nevins described what Mr. Leckey said as tothe manner she should be managed, by working theengine twice over, &c.' The chairman suggested that the quay committeo

should see whether they could break her up, andmake two hulks of her, and apply her machinery fora good boat.

The secretary said the cost of the last hulk was£950.

Mr. Nevins—The question is, will you keep heras an article that would cost £950, or expend £4650<to make her equal to one worth £8000, as stated byMr. Lecky. He said for £5000 he would make herequal to the Cork boat, and in some respects better.Mr. N. concluded by again calling on the hoard notto be hasty in their decision, one way or the other.

The matter thus rested for the present.It was.resolved that the secretary write to Mr.

Kavanagh, of Wexford, relative to the Expert, toascertain full particulars respecting her.

FINANCE.In presenting the board's annual account to 31st

March, the finance committee reported there wasa decrease of £19 11s. 4d. in the receipt of tonnageduty. In dues for ballast supplied there was an in-crease of £116 14s. 4d., and for ballast discharged adecrease of £9 9s. lOd. In inward pilotage therewas an increase of £100 19s. 4d., ana £85 16s. 5d.in outward. In the number of vessels paying tan-nage duty there was an increase of 143 vessels, and6,367 tons, viz. : 1190 vessels of 161.906 tons,oompared with 1047 vessels of 155,539 tons. Theproportion of the year's expenditure chargeable upontannage duty was less than the receipt by the sumof £382 19s. 4d. Ballast receipt exceeded its dis-bursement by £16 11s., and pilotage by £74 5s. 7d.The expenditure on behalf of the pilots' fund ex-ceeded its credit by £6 14s. 8d. The balance of theyear was thus increased by £467 Is. 3d.

PILOT MASTER.

Leave of absence for a month was granted to thepilot master, he having made proper arrangements.for the conduct of the pilot business during his ab-sence. PILOT BOATS.

A letter was read from Mr. Pierse Cox, owner ofthe pilot boat Joseph, requesting payment of a ba-lance of £40 due to him.

Chairman—Why was the balance withheld ?Secretary—The boat had been seven weeks under

repair—Capt. Angel's boat was also five weeks, audhe withdrew his boat at the expiration of the charter.

Mr. Barnes—We ought to use the Falcon.Chairman—Is it after such a verdict as was given

of her unfitness, last assizes. We could do no suchthing in the face of the public, and wo must beguided by public opinion.

Mr. Thompson—We have no contract at present ;we have the Joseph on. sufferance. Mr. Cox willtake £2 a month additional.

Chairman—You should not play fast and loosewith Mr. Cox—you should say whether you will takethe Joseph weekly or monthly.

Mr. Thompson—Th e question is, for what timewill you take the offer ?

Mr. Lawler—Six months.Mr. Barnes again introduced the Falcon, and

alluded to the opinion of " country gentlemen" onthe jury as to the f alcon's unfitn ess, and allowed thatthey oame to an equitable decision as to the sum theboard had to pay for her (laughter). A trifling al-teration in her mast would rectify the defect, and hoknew it from experience.

Mr. Lawler—These observations arc premature.On tho motion of Mr. Thompson, seconded by Mr.

La'or, the offer of Mr. Cox was accepted , for theJoseph, at £2 additional per month, for 12 monthsfrom the 8th of July ultimo.

RIVER WATCH.

A memorial was read from the quay and riverwatch to have their wages con tinued at 12s. 3d., thetime for which it was originally granted havingexpired. The case of these hard-worked and deser-ving men was referred to tho town council, who nodoubt will pay that attention to the memorial whichit deserves.

The memorials and petitions of some of the pen-sioners and pilots' widows having been disposed of,the board broke up.

In September, 1852, tho guardians obtained a jud g-ment against Miss Anno Walsh, for £1\) 8s. 4d., beingfor tho amount of arrears of rates up to and for the 10thof September , 1850, with costs.

Since that period four rates have been struck, on footof which a balance of £20 Is 01., including the ratestruck December, 18J3, remains due.

No payment has been mado on :'.ot of tho jud gment,find the samo can be put in force at any time, at smallexpense, by issuing execution thereon , and selling MissWalsh's interest in the promises through the medium ofthe shcritf. i ¦

Miss Walsh Im askCw1 time unti 1 November to payup, and as it cannot hanho desiro of the guardians to actlarslily, we would r/^mmend that Miss Walsh bo

al-lowed until November1 . J discharge her liabilities, uponthe condition that she p Jy up all arrears and current ratC3(exclusive ot" thoso for which tbejudgment was obtained,)and that sho piy £15 per auuum ia liquidation of suchjudgment.

l ' K K R Y U A N K .

A enpj- of a memori al , numerously signed, for-warded to the poor law commissioners , in favour ofopening a branch dispensary in that locality, wasread by the clerk.

Mr. Hudson said, with reference to the memorial ,he had every respect for the persons who signed i t ;but there was one matter connected with it whichhe greatly objected to, namely, that in place of for-warding the memorial to the board of guardians theyforwarded it to the poor law commissioners forthe purpose , he supposed , of having the boardcompelled to accede to their wishes. If the memor-ialists wished to net fairly they would have at oncesent it to the board. Dr. Purcell, at the meeting ofthe dispensary committee, said the commissionerswould coerce the board to opi?n the dispensary.—There were also some inaccuracies in the memorial.They sp?ak of Ferrybank being separated from thecity of Waterford by a toll brid ge. It is not separ-ated, Ferrybank is a portion of the city of Waterford(hear). When gentlemen send a memorial he,Mr. II., thought they ought to state facts (hear).From the 1st of January to the 'middle of July onlythree tickets had been issued from persons at Ferry-b.ink, while twenty had been issued by persons resi-dent at this side (hoar) . He cared not how manywere issued by gentlemen there, but only the numberhe stated had been presented at the dispensary forrelief. It was said Major Whitney had issued up-wards of thirty, and had to give a penny to each top.iy the brid ge (hear) ; this was no doubt a schemeon their part to obtain the penny and he would ad-vise the Major to prosecute them for obtainingmoney under false pretences (laughter). Mr. Hud-son then moved the following resolutions :—" First—Resolved , that it having been represented

to this board by the Waterford dispensary committee ,that onl y three tickets for relief from members visit-iag in tha neighbourhood of Ferrybauk , were pre-sented at the dispensary between the 1st of Januaryand the Mtli of Jul y in this year, whilst n»arly nilthe sick poor of that locality who applied for dispen-sary relief, obtained tickets for the purpose frommembers residing in the portion of the boroug h ofWaterford , south of the river Suir wo are there-fore of op inion , that llifi establishment of a branchdisj iensarv at Forry bank , without increased facilitylor the issue of tickets , would be a waste of thopublic mor.ry, and usck .;s t'> ths sick poor.

" Secondly—Resolved, tint in purj iinucs of thereport of tl a dispensary committee, and from therations abeva stated , the resolution of this boardauthorising tlsc di'-spesisary committ.'C to malic arrange-ments for opening a branch dispjnsiry at Ferry bankbi re«eiii '.ii:d.

"Thirdly—!ir&;.Ivcd, tiiat wo are of op:n:-';:i thatthe appointment of respectable persons, residing atFerry hai ik , with power to iisiu tickets for dispen-sary relief, will bo the '.noit cfiici '.-nt r.isaijs for se-curing such relief for the sick p'»or o!" that locality."

Mr. Hudson said Ahlermaii i-'orri-rtal, Mr. AlbertWhite , and Mr. Power, (steam mills) were the j ui 'i-cipal emp loyers in that locality, and liiry should beempowered to issue tickets (hear). There need beno gratuity of a penny, for the majority of the peo-ple ia that locality can well afford to \ny a pennyfor the hrid-c (hear). M;\ I'oct , Alderman Pliolan ,and Dr. Cavetwere at first advocates fur opening thebranch dispensary, but when they found th'j realstate of the facts they withdrew their i'.ivo rr.

Alderman Piu-l.iu wa? one of the most anxious tohave a dispensary at l\rry b;ink , but having full yheard the true stale of the ensn he altered his opinion.He begged to second Mr. Hudson 's motion.

Dr. Xfackesy did not agree with the view takenby Mr. liud';o:i , and he hoped they (the ho-ird)would not take the power from the dispensary com-mittee of opening a branch dispensary when it maybecome necessary. If they rescind the former re-solution they take away that power—the board oughtto leave it in the hands of the committee. Dr. Mac-kesy then moved an amendment to the effect thatwhere the visitation of cholera may be apprehended ,that it be deemed inexpedient to rescind the resolu-tion alread y passed to establish a branch dispensaryat Ferry bank , it being a crowded and populous vil-lage—and that , as there are only two members of theWaterford dispensary committee in that locality,other gentlemen be added thereto.

Mr. Delahunty said he had a notice for uextThursday for the appointment of the clergy andmedical practitioners of the union as wardens. No°ne comes more in contact with the sick poor thanthe clergy and medical men.

The Chairman—The duties of the wardens shouldta merely the issuing of tickets—a great responsi-bility otherwise attaches to a warden.

Capt. Newport—The march of disease is so great»ow both in England and Ireland that every facilityAould be given to the relief of the sick poor.

Mr. Spencer said all at the Ferrybank side areanxious to have a dispensary there!

Mr. Jones said Ferrybank was a dirty, unhealthysad poor place, and ought to have a dispensary.

Mr. D'.-lahunty—Wardens have power to pay for«» bridge.

Mr. Cadogan—Not out of the rates.Mr. Delahunty—Yes, it is part and parcel of out-

door relief.Mr. Cadogan said Dr. Mackesy was drawing a

Jerrible picture of the cholera. Should it visit thattotality, if I lived there and took the cholera, I'dbe dead and buried, and all, before the risking day°' tie dispensary doctor would arrive—yes, and thepfajcrs for the repose of my soul over (laughter) be-'*** the dispensary doctor could be with me (hear.)Joe expense $&«j> ening a dispensary there even forone day in th«L eek would come to £00 or £80 aJ **t (no, no.) Any yea. I venture to predict thatjne saiariea will be raised, for when there is addi-"°nal work there will, no doubt, be additional pay-met>t required. What benefit would a house full ofMedicine be when the door would be locked (hear) ?unless there was medical attendance there for three6t 'our hours every day in the week it would be of•to Use. Dr. Hunt say* he has more to do than any^er doctor in the u\ion. If you take him from™4terford to attend i>> Ferrybank he must neglect•*e «ck of the cUy<nd -ar). If a person be attacked•j "re with diarrhfiea; "uA>lera, headache, or any sud-

e>"> comp laint, it is useless to expect relief if thee«ical attendance is only two hours every Saturday

rial ^ (hear). The numerously signed memo-' *as owing to the perseverance of Dr. Mackesy,a if I wished to get up a counter memorial as

?• ™!ero««ly ¦ signed I could. The milk of human

oth ™'gllt not flow so frcely !n tlle breasts of«• eJ* M >n Major Whitney (great laughter), to payJ,'1?? bridge toll, therefore proper relief should beP vided for the poor.Dr u

S,ome furtner discussion, the chairman put

M v y * amendment wnich was lost-i-vVVi*r Power then moved another amendment.

NUISANCES.Mr. Power, pursuant to notice, moved that £14

be allocated for the removal of nuisances a I; Tra-more, under the nuisances' removal act. Tl»9 sew-erage should be looked to, and eight stench trapswere required. Tramore had at present move peo-ple than ever it had. He had the census taken lastweek, and the result was that there are at present1718 inhabitants—2030 lodgers, and from 500 to600 daily visitors. He thanked God it was particu-larly healthy, and there was not one case of fe-ver in the whole town. They could not get themoney by subscriptions , and they should wait tillnext year for a presentment (hear). Tramore wouldhave to pay £7 of the £14 required, and the entireremainder of the electoral division, the othsr half.He heard no person object to this but Mr. Boganwho had some property in the division , and whoseshare of the tax would come to just 3s. lj d. (hear,hear). No 'man ought to stand up to oppose such auseful and necessary work for that paltry sum (hear).

Mr. Bogan opposed it, because he had nc confi-dence in the way the dispensary committee weredisbursing the rates.

Mr. Cadogan said tho guardians would not bedcing their duty if they did not do every thihg toprevent contagion in so densely populated a town asTramore.

Mr. Delahunty strongly supported the mofon.Mr. Jones was of opinion that the townspeople,

who were now making cent, per cent, by their douses,ought to pay the expenses themselves (hear , hear) .

Mr. Delahunty cautioned Mr. Jones not to opposetho motion , fur if he succeeded in his opposition , hemay visit Tramore at some future day and get asinp of cholera (hear and laughter).

Mr. Hojj an said he was inclined to move that Mr.Po .vrr apply to Lord Doneraile for the " sinews ofwar" (laughter).

After several other observations tho motion ,amended , was put from stho chair, and a divisiontaken thereon.

The numbers were for the motion—12 ; against,0. Did not vote, 2.

" THE CALLAGIIAS3. "The letter of the commissioners, relative to the

children registered as " Wilson," or more properl y" Callaghan ," having been again read,

Mr. Hudson moved—that the names of the child-ren registered as " Wilson," and their religion as" Protestant," bo changed to their proper names of" Callaghan ," and their religion as " Roman Catho-lics."

Mr. E. Power J.P., seconded the nomination.Mr. Spencer said it war. a delusion to Bay they

were Callaghans or Roman Catholics.Mr. 1'eet was of the same opinion.Mr. Cadogan—You will soon make them Quakers

(laug hter).Mr. Jones—There is not a scintilla of evidence

they are Roman Catholics.Mr. J. Carroll—The biother of their father offered

before this board , to prove on oath, that the eldestgirl was tho daughter of his brother, but the otherswere too young for him to remember. The girlknew her uncle, and was ready to prove that; theyounger children were her brother and sisters (h^ar) ,

Mr.Cadogan said the letters, and all other evidencethey had , coincided, with the report and letter of theCommissioners. The Protestants and Quakers; arcrabid on this question (hear).

Mr. O'Reilly said he was convinced the childrenwere Roman Catholics, for the eldest girl knew theprayers of their religion as well as he did. In sayingthe Lord 's prayer, she used " who," for he examinedher, instead of " which," as the Protestants do.

Captai n Newport said M& Peet gave very t;oodreasons for his opinion.

Mr. Cadogan—It's all nonsense—he 's a humbug.Capt. Newport complained to the chairman that

he was called a humbug (hear).Mr. Cadogan—No, I did not ; I called Mr. Peet

a humbug (laughter).Mr. Peet—Very complimentary indeed (laugh ter) .After some further discussion tho eldest girl was

called before the board for examination.She stated, in reply to the questions—too nume-

rous questions—that her father was a ganger underMr. Dargan at a salary of 30s. a week—that the lastplricc she saw him was at Cork. He was a native ofCm-low. Her father and mother were always RomanCatholics, and also the children. Her mother sentthem to tho infant school in Dungarvan—sho hadmoney there as she sold oft" her things while herfather was in hospital. It is about three years sincethoy left Cork—when they came to the Waterfordworkhouse her mother said they were Protestants—about twelve months ago she took them out anddc-sertcd them in the public streets. They had tocome into Iho workhouse again.

The cross-firing of questions at this poor interest-ing looking young girl was so great that she lairslinto tears. It was too cruel an ordeal for a reall ynice and interesting young female. At length slitWHO. dcsireJ to withdra w.

The chairman then put the question that the nnmesand religion he changed on the register. Thevoting was as follows:—

TO THE EDITOR OP THE NEWSSIR — By the Mail I find that our >7orthy Mayor at-

tended and presided nt a " cliurc-h missionary" meeting,at the Sunday School , Town Hall , on Monday evening.I was, indeed, very sorry to sco a respectablo citizenlike him taking the gold chain which belongs lo tho citi-zens (ho having but the loan of it for twelve month?)into a proselytising society liko the one over which hepresi.led—as Mayor. The objects of tho society areacknowledged to be proselytism. I really did not ex-pect this from his worship. I know that tuo Catholicpublic ore very indi gnant about it. And, observe, ifCatholic Town Councillors did not support him hecould not be Mayor. I write more in Borrow than inanger.

WaterforJ, August 1G. CITIZEN.

6$J" It seems to us very strange that the inspectorof nuisances should be authorised to summon per-sons for having manure i« carls, more or less co-vered , whilst quantities of the most noxious manurearc to be seen on tho public streets every morning.At nine o'clock thia morning there were six or eightheaps of the most disgusting matter that one could

WATERFORD SAILORS' HOMEI-ursuant to advertisement, which was published

in the last number of the News, a meeting was held,on Saturday last, at the Council Chamber, TownHall, for the purpose of making arrangements for theestablishment of a Sailors' Home in this city. Upto nearly two o'clock only a few gentlemen attended,and it, was discussed , in a general conversationamong'those present, whether it would not be betterowing to the paucity of its advocates who attended,not to hold a meeting that day, but to give sufficien tnotice to the citizens generally, that a meeting'voitld be held, on an early day, to carry into effectthe desideratum contemplated.

The following gentlemen attended : — CaptainStuart, II. N., (Cork), Captain Mark Anthony, K.N.,Lieut. Griffith , It. N., (Emigration Agent), EdwardW. Wright, Esq., R.N., Thomas F. Strange, ThomasBarnes, Walter Phclan , Albert White, Thomas Dil-lon , John Sparrow, William Marchant Ardagh, andJohn Alcock , Esqrs.

Captain Stuart—previous to tho chair having beentaken—recommended that the existing committee,appointed at a former meeting, should at once pro-ceed to take a house, particularly as there were atpresent sufficient funds in hands to try the experi-ment for one year.

Mr. Alcock was opposed to doing so till a largermeeting than the present should be convened. Thefirst meeting held was on the I Cth of March , 1854,tho minutes of proceedings on which occasion heread ; aho letters which he received, as honorarysecretary, from noblemen and gentlemen , withwhom he corresponded on the subject, highly appro-ving of the project, and promising their corporation,namely, from the chief secretary of the Lord Lieu-tenant , Lord Stuart de Deciej , D.L., NicholasMillion Power, Esq., M.I'., Thomas Meagher, Esq.,M.P., Joseph Malcomson , Esq. Mr. Alcock nextroad the prospectus issued shortly after the firstmectinjj was held. It was as follows :—

PATHOK —Tho Lord Lieutenant.VICE IJATRO.VS— Tho Eirl of Huntingdon , tho Lord

Bishop of Cashcl , Lord Stuart de Dcciea.PRESIDENTS —Tho Higlit Worshipful the Mayor, the

Ilisih Sheriff, N. M. Power, Esq., M.P.COMMITTEE —Henry Denny, T. F. Strange, J. P.

Graves, S. T. Grubb, John Alcock, A. Lnmbe (collectorof customs), Copt. Mansfield, K.N., U. Ousley (corrptrol-lerof customs), H. White , J. W. Strangman (pr<>sidentof the chamber of commerco), Lieut. Griffiths, R.N.(emigration agent), Josiab Williams, Thomas Barnes,and Alderman Davis (with liberty to add to their num-bers,).

" Tho object contemplated by thoso] who advocato theestablishment of Sailors' Homes at the principal seatports of the United Kingdom, consists in the moral andsocial elevation of a class of men on whom, perhaps morethan any other , the maritime supremacy, commercialgreatness, and general prosperity of this kingdom de-pend ; yet whoso condition has hitherto received butlittlo attention from either its legislators or philanthro-pists. Hence it is the proverbial characteristic of theseamen to be utterly improvident of the earnings result-ing from a life of peril and of toil ; wbilo tho want ofany moral or menial training too frequently allows thisimprovidence to be directed into courses of depravityand orimc. Generosity, too, is a largo ingredient in thesailor's character ; and it cannot be tx> much to hope,that his good dispositions, if protected from tho destruc-tive associations winch inevitably await him at everyport, would lead him to a more just appreciation of hisduties to those who have claims on tho produco of hislabours, as well as to God -to society—and to himself.

" Tho immediate purpose of these establishments is toafford to sailors, on returning from a- voyage, a home inwhich they may find , at the lowest possible expense, ncomfortable and well provided board and lodging, as wellas the* means of useful occupation of their leisure hours ,by reading or otherwise. About 23 of these institutionshavo been established in the United Kingdom within thelast seven years—including the ports of Dublin , Cork,and Belfast—and have, everywhere been found produc-tive of the most beneficial results.

" To carry this object into effect in Waterford, wherotho evils which surround tho sailor, on landing, from thoassociation of abandoned and dishonest characters, is aszrcat as at any other port the abovo association hasbeen formed, and a considerable amount of fuuds alreadysubscribed. It is proposed that'tho establishment shallbe made as far as possible, self-supporting, by tho feeswhiob will bo charged for board and lodging ; but as itwill still be necessary to provide for a considerable por-tion of expenses, particularly at the outset, by a publicfund, iho benevolent are now appealed to, to aid in thisrao-st ilcsirabl o oliject. A large ami commodious housomuitba obtained , and furnished , and conducted in such amanner as to induce the sailor to prefer it to other places,in which similar accommodation will be offered to him atperh?i{,3 nominally less cxpensa , but where he will , inreality , bo csposcl to all those temptations from whichit is advisable to protect him. A library nn'l rcidi^ -room tvlll bo attached , and an hospital provided for sai-lors i:i temporary sickness or distress.'1

[Then follows a list of the subscri ptions, anddonation! ; already subscribed , amounting to .CllC]

Mr. Alcock again expressed his disapprobationlo hold a meeting that day when only so few personswere present.

Mr. Strange—Let us make n beginning—the lateMr. O'Conndl had only three persons present at hisfirst mustin g of agitation in Dublin (hear andlaug hter) .

Mr. Alcock—I would suggest to Capt. Stuart toput himself in communication with a few membersof I 'liu old committee , as this is no meeting, andendeavour to get up a general meeting of thecilizotis .

Mr. Sjmrrov said thn secretary should summon amc-tiiin; of tho committee to sec if the project can becarried out , and if not let it be dissolved.

Mr, Fisher—The committee have no option but toact or resign. There is a house on the Adel phiterrace, occupied by Mrs. Gibbons, which 13 now tolie let , that would answer admirabl y.

Captain Stuart urged that :i meeting bo held thatday with the persons then assembled.

After some further conversation ,Mr. IU UNES was called to the chair.It Was then moved , that the thanks of the meeting

be given to the committee for their having collectedlarge funds for the objects of the proposed establish-ment, and that they be authorised to take a housefor one year, for a Sailor 's Homo, in order to try theexperiment of such an institution.

Capt. Anthony having seconded the motion , it waspassed unanimously.

Mr. Fisher said at the first meeting % committeewas appointed , but no quorum, hence the difficultyof getting gentlemen to act unless a large numberattended. There should be a quorum of three orfive members, giving to them the powers of thewhole committee, and if so the contemplated proj ectwould progress.

Lieut. Griffiths then moved , and Mr. Strange se-conded that three members of the committee dp forma quorum. Passed unanimously.

Captain Stuart said a sum of £5, or thereabouts,should be placed in the hands of the honorary se-cretary to employ, occasionally, a clerk to nopy thopapers, correspondence, &c, that would be requi-site.

Mr. Alcock—I am still of opinion that we oughtto have a general meeting. The funds arc all de-posited in the bank of Ireland, not one penny ofwhich is ynt expended.

It having been stated that the committee hadpower to add to their numbers, Captain Anthonywas added thereto.

Mr. Dillon—Captain Stuart , can you give us a pro-bable estimate of the expense ?

Capt. Stuart said the expense of accommodating18 men , with beds, furniture, and every other neces-sary—-the number they commenced with in Cork—was under £80 for the first year.

Mr. Dillon—I think twelve will be sufficient to be-gin with here.

Mr. Alcock said a general subscription should atonce be set on foot. No doubt all the public corpo-rations will contribute. It would also be an advan-tuge if there wan a public examiner of the qualifica-tions of master mariners and other marine officers inthis city. He would suggest that Capt. Stuart wouldbe the examiner here as well as in Cork.

It was agreed on that there will be a generalmeeting of the subscribers convened for that daymonth (10th of September).

Mr. Barnes, on the motion of Mr. Strange, wasthen moved from the chair, and Mr. Dillori calledtheroto , when the thanks of the meeting were unani-mously passed to Mr. Barnes.

Mr. Alcock, at the close of the proceedings, said itwould be as well if the press took no notice of them,as the meeting was merely conversational.

Captain Stuart was anxious the press should reportthe proceedings, as by so doing the public would bebettor prepared to discuss the matter.

PETTY SESSIONS.—THIS DAY.[Before the Mayor, Mr. Tabuteau, and Mr. C.

. Newport]Two young tippers were sentenced to three months'

imprisonment for stealing coal on the quay. -Mr. Loughlin Freeman was summoned by Mr.

Caffrey, inspector of nuisances, for having flags onthe quay and in quay-lane.

Mr. Frseman's defence was, that he was not servedwith any notice of removal previous to the summons—that there were only three or four flags in quay-lane, and that the flags on the quay were being un-shipped when seen by Caffrey.

Mr. Newport thought that Mr. Freeman had aright to be noticed before gummoned.

Mr. Tabuteau was of opinion that Mr. Freeman'sformer conviction ought to have been sufficient no-tice. However he (Mr. Tabuteau) censured Caffreyrather severely for the manner in which he gave hisevidence. He said he was a mostlitigious character,and that he had plenty of cases without resorting tosuch hair-splitting (laughter.)

The quay-lane case was postponed in order to giveMr. Freeman time to remove the flag3, and theother was dismissed.

Mr. E. T. Power defended Mr. Freeman.Caffrey also summoned a number of persons for

drawing noxious manure through the streets in un-covered and badly covered carts. Three or fourwere convicted in mitigated penalties, and theremainder were dismissed.

Two of the defendants stated that the corporationcarts were not covered.

TO THE EDITORS the " WATERFORD NEWS.';Council Chamber, Town-Hall,

secure thcopeuing to the public of the circular road fromGrocnbank to Davis's quay, Waterforil, to transmit toyou tho accompanying report, and to solicit from you asubscription in aid of tho undertaking.

The road from Greenback has been laid down bycounty presentment to tho point of tho rock at tho timeof the public works, and it is to connect tho road so madewith the city that the present appeal is mado. Tho sumrequired will not be great , and there are several partieswho have very handsomely tendered pecuniary assistance.

CAPEL-STREET POLICE OFFICE— MONDAYCASH or EUMOND O'FJ.AIIEBTY , ESQ., EX-COMMIS-

SIONER OP INCOME TAX.—On Saturday Mr. C. Fitz-gerald ,, jun., attended before Mr. O'Callaghan assolicitor for Mr. II. Lazarus and Mr. Solomon , whohold bills alleged to have been issued by Mr. E.O'Flaherty, late Special Income Tax Commissioner.Both these gentlemen swore informations to the effectthat Mr. Godley and Mr. Gregory, whose nameswere on the bills , repudiated the bills as forgeries.Mr. Fitzgerald then applied for summonses to com-pel the attendance of Mr. Godley and Mr. Gregory,who otherwise might not be willing to attend andgive their evidence as to the alleged forgeries.

Summonses were accordingly issued for yesterday,Monday, at eleven o'clock.

In pursuance of these summonses Mr. Godley at-tended in court yesterday before Dr.

% Kelly, as did

also Mr. C. Fitzgerald, jun., solicitor for the prose-cution. It was understood that Mr. Godler statedthat , owing to urgent official business, he was com-pelled to leave for London yesterday. 1 le, how-ever, had come to the court in obedience to thesummons, and was willing to give, in the form ofa sworn information , any testimony he could giverii '/ i oooc. in reference to tho transaction which wasthe subject of investi gation.

Mr. Godley subsequently swore an information tothe elleet that two hills , one at three months for.£¦150 and the oilier for the same period for £70,drawn on him by his late colleague, Mr. KdmonilO'Flaherty, were forgeries, and that he neither di-rectly nor indirectly authorised Mr. O'Flaherty toattach his nama to these bills. This information wasprepared and received with a view to ulterior pro-ceedings.

TUESDAY .—The Solicitor-General attended onTuesday in pursuance of a summons, and deposedthat the signatures of his name to tho bills for £150and £ {05 were forgeries ; that he had never autho-rised Mr. (/ 'Flaherty to put his name to any bills ;he had received payment from him of money heowed , him , and for which he (Mr. O'Flaherty) hadpassed a bill , but he had never had any bill transac-tions with him.

Mr. Fitzgerald—Will your worship 'now grant awarran t against the person charged with the forgery ?

Dr. Kelly replied that he would do so as soon asall the informations were perfected.

No further application for a warrant was madeduring the day.

The PROVINCIAL SYNOD OF CONNAUGHTTUAM , TUESDAY EVENING .—The Provincial Synod

held its first public session this day in St. Jarlath'sCathedral. It was opened with the greatest possiblesplendour and solemnity. Thousands of personswere present, and the deepest interest was taken inthe sacred ceremonial.

The'archbishops, the bishops, the canons, andother members of the Synod in their robes, proceed-ed in procession from the archep iscopal residence tothe cathedral . A grand Pontifical high mass wascelebrated by the P»i.ihop of Killala. The Archbi-shop of Tuam presided in his place on the archepis-copal throne. The prelates present were—the Bi-shop of Killala, tho Bishop of Clonfert , the Bishopof Kilmacduagli, and the Bishop of Achonry.

After high mass and the ceremonials prescribed bythe ritual for the first public session, the Archbishopdelivered a most beautiful and eloquent discourse,taking his text from St. Matt , c. 18, v. 20.—" Forwhere there are two or three gathered together inmy name, there am I in the midst of them."

At the conclusion the prelates, canons, and otherclergy retired in the order of seniori ty to the sacristy,and tho vast congregation began todisperse. In theevening the Archbishop gave the benediction of themost adorable sacrament.

THE CHOLERABELFAST , A UG . 15.—We regret to state that this

dreadful disease is not manifesting any evidencee ofcessation, but rather the reverse. Since Wednesdaylast, when 5!} cases were reported as having occurredin Belfast during the preceding week , 47 new caseshad taken place, up to last evening. The type ofthe disease is very aggravated, death supervening irrthe proportion of CO per cent, of those attacked ,after periods varying from six hours to three days.

Cooke, one of thoprincipal performers at this theatre, and brother ofthe proprietor, died of Asiatic cholera on Mondaymorning, having been seised with the premonitorysymptons on Sunday while in a railway train, mid-way between Margate and London.

After a long,injurious , calumnious, and exaggered statement byMr. James, Q.C., for the plaintiff, which would ap-pear to be the main purpose of the proceedings, theauthorship of the letter could not bo establisnedagainst the defendan t, and the attempt at evidence

said to have lost a curious secret. They knew for-merly how to painton their porcelain fishes and othercreatures in such a manner that these figures neverappeared to the eye until the vases were filled withliquor.

Take the hand of the friendless; smile on the sadand dejected ; sympathize with those in trouble ;strive everywhere to diffuse around you sunshine andjoy. Tf you do this, you will surely be beloved.

THE BIRT H-PLACES OF FANATICS .—Great fanaticsgenerally proceed from sad and sterile countries.Mahomet sprang from the scorching valleys of Ara-bia ; Luther from the f rozen mountains of LowerGermany ; Calvin from the inanimate plains ofPicardy; Cromwell from the stagnant marshes of theOuse. As is the place, so is the man.—Lamartine 'tCelebrated Characters.

The ptincipal sources from which carbonic acid isderived , are, the respiration of animals, all animalsbreathing it and taking in oxygen ; a full grown manbreathes out 10 oz. of carbon in this form every day.2nd, it is always given off when ovganic substancesdecompose ; 3rd, all our fires are a continual sourceof it; 4th, it is given off from plants during dark-ness.

The power of licensing public-houses was firstgranted to Sir Giles Montpesson and Sir Francis Mit-chell, for their own emolument, in 1620 and 1621.The number of public-houses at that period wasabout 13,000. In 1700 the number increased to32,600, and in 1790, the total number in Great Bri-tain was 76,000. It is supposed that in England andWales, in 1830, there were about 30,000 beer shops,and 50,000 public houses. The number in Jan. 1840was 95,820.

Mr. Redblossom drank moTe than his usual allow-ance one wet night last week , the consequence ofwhich was, he gave his wife a rather confused ac-count of his conduct on his return home. " Yousee, Mr. S 's hotel invited me to go and drinkcousin Tom—and you see the weather was very dry,and I was very sloppy—so I said I didn't mindpunching one drink—and's queer how my head wentinto the punch though! The way home was so dizzythat I slipped upon a little dojj—the corner of thestreet bit me—and an old gentleman with croppedears and a brass collar on his neck said he belongedto the dog—and I was—you understand—ic—thatis, I don't know nothing more about it."

GOOD ADVICE .—A young Irishman placed by hisfriends as a student at a veterinary college, and beingin company with some of his colleagues, was asked," If a broken winded horse were brought to you forcure, what would you advise ?" After consideringfor a moment, " By the powers," said he, " I Wouldadvise the owner to sell him as soon as possible."

"Ma , didn't the minister say last Sunday thatsparks flew upwards?" "Yes, my dear ; but howcame you to be thinking of that?" " Because yes-terday I saw cousin Julia'* spark s tagger along thestreet and fall downwards/ " Here, Bridget, putthis child to bed; she must be getting sleepy."

The art of surgery makes rapid progress, likeeverything else, out west. At St Paul, Minnesota,a doctor whose pet cockerel had its leg frozen off,supplied an artificial one, and attached it .to thestump, when the bird began to strut about in a per-fect paroxysm of pride and exultation, and crowedBO continually that the distinguished surgeon cut hishead off to stop his noise.

" Mr. Swipes, I've just kicked your William out ofdoors." "Well, Mr. Swingle, it 's the first bill you'vefooted for this many a day."

A drunken lawyer , on entering church, wasobserved by the minister, who addressed him thus :—" I will bear witness against you at the day ofjudgment." The lawyer, shaking his head with adrunken gravity, replied :—" I have practised twentyyears at the bar, and have always found the greatestrascal was the fint to turn State's evidence."

SOLUTION WANTED.—How comes it that bashfulwomei.X always tu :

OPINIONS OF LIVING ENGLISH STATES-MEN ON THE ESTABLISHED CHURCHGRIEVANCE.As long as the foultfBt practical abuse that ever

existed in any civilised country continues untouched,or touched only with a faltering hand—the IrishChurch, as lavishly endowed for a sixteenth part ofthe Irish people as if more than double its wholenumber could partake of its ministrations—thereassuredly never could be peace for that illfated land.—Brougham.

It is my deliberate opinion that of all the institu-tions now existing in the civilized world, the Estab-lished Church of Ireland is the most utterly absurdand indefensible. There is but one country in theworld that presents to you the spectacl e of a popula-tion of 8,000,000 of people with a church establishedand richly endowed for only 800,000 of that popula-tion.— Macauhy. . .

I regard the Irish Church, in the actual conditionof that country, and upon the footing on whbh it isplaced, to be opposed aliks to justice, to policy, andto religious principle.—Lord Grey.

I believe the Protestant Church in Ireland to beone of the most mischievous institutions in existence.I believe it is so considered now. I believe it will beconsidered by posterity ; and it is only because yourlordsh ips are familiar with itthatyou are not shockedby the picture. Can there be any wonder that theRoman Catholics are discontented I—Lord Campbell.

The Irish Church was unjustifiable in its establis h-ment, and is indefensible in its continuance.— SirGeorge Grey. . _ _ . ,

The appropriation of the whole of the revenueswhich the State allows and recognises as the revenuesof the Established Church to the clergy of a smallportion of the people is in itself an anomaly and agrievance,—Lord J. Russell.

A DF.SOI.ATE TOWN .—The correspondent of theDaily News thus describes Giurgevo after the battlein which the Turks caused the Russians to evacuateWallachia, in which battle Lieutenant Burke, of theRoyal Engineers ; Lieutenant Meynell , of the 75thinfantry ; and Captain Arnold, of the Bombay En-gineers, who had command of two or three hundredmen each, were slaughtered with their men anddriven into the Danube :—

" The bodies of the slain floating down the riverbrought the first news of the battle to Silistvia. Thoseof Arnold and Meynell have never been found.—Burke is buried outside the town at the south-easternangle of the fortification. A small cross, bearing aninscription containing his name and age, &c, marksthe spot. He was one of the finest looking men Iever saw—a model of strength and symmetry.

" The island oposite Rustchuck is of oblong shapeand perhaps two English miles in length, extendingfrom above the town to Giurgevo. The breadth ofthe Dunube between it find Rustchuk is about ninehundred yards, and it is separated from the mainland on the Wallachian side by a narrow channel ofno great depth, but still not fordable. Down thecentre runs ft long narrow pool or canal , and almostthe whole surface is covered with tall sedge andmarsh weeds. •

" It does not often fall'to a man's lotto see a townwithout inhabitants, and I confess my walk throughthe streets of Giurgevo the day after my arrival pro-duced a profound and indescribable impression uponme. Some of the doors were locked, others turnedto and fro in the breeze; all the apartments boremarks of the hasty flight of the owners. Flower-pots stood in nearly all the windows, and many ofthe bed-rooms contained such articles as bed-steads,looking-glasses, &c. In a huge cupboard, m a veryextensive mansion, I found a stew of meat and pota-toes, the scent of which was anything but agreeable.Some of the cardens are still trim and neat as if theowners' care"had been withdrawn but yesterday ;others choked with weeds and grass, as if long agoleft to their fate. In several apartments were struyarticles of female attire, lace collars, crumpled anddirty, old slippers with the heels turned down, andpapers of pins. Over all reigns the silence of death.You walk through street after street without seeinga living creature exceptpcrhaps a half-famished dog,whose eyes you scan as fie slinks past you, and with-out hearing a sound save the echo of your own foot-fall. In the market-place there ore some signs oflife ; groups of officers lounge at the door of thehotel, and patrols pass and repass on their way tothe various out-posts. Advance 20 yards in any di-rection from this, and you find yourself surroundedby desolation."

THE TITIIKISH PITE.—In the modem Byzantiumthey now bestow the utmost care upon, and strain tothe utmost point of luxury all that concerns, the pipe— the pleasure, above all others, of the modern Turk.The shops of the sellers of mouth-pieces and stemsof pipes arc very numerous nnd well appointed. Themost valued stems are those of cherry-wood or jas-mine ; and they attain to very high prices in propor-tion to the size, straightness. and perfection of qua-lity. A fine pipe-stem of cherry, with its bark un-broken, and of a dark lustre ; or a shoot of jasmine,of which the knots are regularly distributed, and of abright colour, will command aa much as five hundredpiastres, or nearly five pounds. . . . As to theamber mouth-pieces, they are the object of E tradeof their own, which approaches to that of jewelleryby the value of the material and the expense incur-red»in working it. The amber comes chiefly fromthe Baltic, on the shore of which it is found moreabundantly than anywhere else. At Constantinople,where it is very dear, the Turks prefer it of a palelemon coloui , partly opaque, and desire that it shouldhave neither spot, flaw, nor vein—conditions some-what difficult to combine, and which greatly enhancethe price of the mouth-pieces. A perfect pair ofthem command as much as 8000 or 10,000 piastres—from £70 to £90. A collection of pipes worth150,000 francs (£6000) is not at all an unusual thingamong the high dignitaries or the richer private per-sons in Istamboul. These precious mouth-pieces areencircled with rings of gold, enamelled, and oftenenriched with diamonds or rubies. It is, in fact, anOriental mode of displaying the possession of wealth.All these pieces of amber—yellow, pale, or clouded,and of different degreeB of transparency, polished,turned and hollowed with the utmost care—acquirein the rays of the sun shades of colour so warm andgolden as would make Titian jealous, and inoculatewith the desire of smoking the most resolute victimof" tobacco-phobia." In the humble shops, cheapermouth-pi«ces are to be found, having some almostimperceptibl e flaw or fault, but not the less perfectlyperforming their office , or being the less cool andpleasant to the lips. There are imitations of amberin Bohemian glass, of which enormous quantities arcsold, at paltry prices ; but they are only used bythe Armenians and Greeks of the lowest class. NoTurk who has any self-respect uses anything but thepure amber.— Constantinople of To-day.

A PORTRAIT OP MR. T. B. M ACA.VI.AY.—Macaulay'swhole physique gives you the impression of greatstrength and stamina of constitution. He has thekind of frame which we usaally imagine is peculiarlyEnglish—short, stout, and firmly knit. There issomething hearty in all his demonstrations. Hespeaks in that full round, rolling voice, deep from thechest, which we also conceive of as being more com-mon in England than in America. As to his con-versation, it is just like his writing ; that is to say, itshows very strongly the same qualities of mind. Iwas informed thathc is famous for a most uncommonmemory ; one ot these men to whom it seems im-possible to forget anything once read ; end he hasacad all sorts of things that can be thought of in alllanguages. A gentleman told me that he could re-peat all the old Newgate literature, hanging ballads,last speeches, and dying confessions; while his know-ledge of Milton is so acenrate, that if his poems wereblotted out of existence; they might be restoredsimply from his memory.

BRITISH NORT H AMERICA .—The British NbrthAmerican provinces contain a surface of 341,155square miles, equal in extent to one third of thatportion of the United States lying east of theMississippi. They contain a population at the pre-sent time of about 2,700,000. The annual importsare about 41,000,000 dols, of which about 14,000,000dollars are from the United States. The annualexports > are about 31,000,000 dollars, of which11,000,000 dollars are to the United States. Theamouut of tonnaee annually employed is 1,600,000.

EXTRAVAGANCE !—The New 'York Herald statesthat ten thousand dollars per annum for rent ofa .warehouse ; twenty thousand dollars per annumfor the private expenses of each of three or fourpartners, and other items numerous enough to swellthe aggregate to 100,000 dollars, are the currentexpenditures per annum of one of the large drygoods jobbing establishments in that city.

Chairman—Are the farmers to receive £3 as afee with those boys who are to be bound 1

Mr. Quinlan—Mr. Carbery brought the questionbefore the board this day week, nnd a resolution tothat effect was passed, subject to the approval ofthe poor law commissioners.

Chairman—I was not aware of that in conse-quence of not having been here last board day.

Mr. J. Byrne—I don't see the necessity of bind-ing them out toi farmers ; if they are careful and at-tentive they can improve themselves better underthe care of the agriculturist of the union lands thanany farmer, and I would sooner give £2 more toeach and have them sent off to America.

Chairman—Many farmers would be well pleasedto get them with £3 and a suit of clothes.

Mr. Quinlan—Many farmers would be glad totake them f or the snke of the £3, but this should notbe given to them until the expiration of three years.

Chairman—Mr. Barron, what think you of the,clothing to be given to those boys ?

Mr. Quinlan—The question now is before thecommissioners for their opinion.

Mr. Barron—I think you ought to adopt a differ-ent uniform of clothing from that of the house. Hefurther said it was illegal to give clothing to anyperson on leaving the house.

Master (Mr. Keane) said there had been a suit ofclothes given to- each of three or four boys sometime since, who called for their discharge to seekfor employment, but these boys were in the houseabout six or seven years, and grew out of their oldclothing.

Mr. Quinlan—This is what drew my attention theother day to a boy of the name of Cashel, havingas good a suit of clothing on him as any of the boysin the house.

Master—That was a suit of condemned clothingwhich was ordered to be given by the guardians.

Mr. Quinlan—Were there many of the boys gotclothing of that description ?

Master—There were 35 in July, '53, and on thelate occasion there were five more, the boy Cashelinclusive.

Mr. Barron—They could not be turned out of thehouse naked, but they could be provided with acheap suit of corduroy for 2s, 6d. or 3s. each.

Mr. Fitzgerald—There were many of the farmersspeaking to me with regard to these boys, but theycould not give a decided answer.

Master—There were 17 farmers made applicationhere those days past.

Mr. Giles—Were there any applications forfemale servants ?

Master—None ; except on one occasion.Mr. Giles—I saw some of the boys going to bathe

the other day, and they were very shabbily dressed.Mr. Fitzgerald—I wish that Foley, one of the

inmates of whom I have spoken, should get a suit ofthe condemned clothes ; such boys are in great de-mand amongst the farmers.

The board made an order to give him a suit ofcondemned clothing.

Mr. Fitzgerald—I am opposed to the brand of thehouse being on the clothing.

Mr. Giles—So am I.Ordered not to be branded.

FAINTING AND GLAZING.The master suggested to the board the propriety of

entering into contract for the glaring of the severalbroken pain3 of glass in the house ; and also re-quired the board's order for purchasing somecolours for painting.

Board—There is no great necessity for glazing atpresent ; the weather is extremely fine.

Master—Gentlemen it would be well to enter intocontract previous to the time of our glazing thewindows, &c.

To be considered at a future period. Purchasingof colours ordered.

CLERK OF WORKS.Mr. Quinlan spoke at some length in support of

his motion, of which he gave notice this day fort-night, and proposed the following resolution, whichwas seconded by Mr. Fitzgerald, and passed unani-mously :—

" Resolved—That the resolution of the board of the13th, in reference to the payment of Mr. Reany, for histrouble in furnishing any future estimates of worksproposed by the board to be executed, be amended, andthat he be paid in future for sued work dono by a percentage of 2J per cent, on the actual cost of tho works ofwhich be bad furnishe-l an estimate."

CORRESPONDENCE.Mr. Barron, clerk, read among other communi-

cations, the following from the commissioners:—Poor Law Commission Office, Dublin , 8th Aug., 1854.

Sin.—The commissioners for administering tha laws for therelief of the poor in Ireland, have hail before them a report whichthey have received from their inspector, W. J. Hamilton , rela-tive to the Dunj»nrvnn Union, from which it appears that theduties required to he performed by the two medical officers ofthe workhouse and fever hospital are now comparatively light,and I am to state that from the very great reduction in the num-ber of the workhouse inrrmtes under treatment in the infirmaryattached to that establishment, and the very limited numberof cases treated at the fever hospital, the commissioners recom-mend the guardians to consider tho propriety of uniting the twooffices , and of having one medical officer only,—an arrange-ment by which the commissioners think a considerable savingwould be effected in the funds of the union ; the united salariesof the medical officers at present amounting to £170 per annum.

By order of the Commissioners,A. MOORE, Assistant Secretary.

To the Clerk of the Dungarvan Union. ,After the reading of the lettsr by the clerk,Mr. M. Byrne said—I hope the commissioners

don't mean to send out Dr. Quinn on superannuatedallowance to the expense jof the rate-payers or guar-dians (laughter).

Mr. Giles—Perhaps they might allow him halfpay (great laughter) .

After a few other remarks the board ordered thatthe subject of the communication be taken into con-sideration this day fortnight, and the clerk to noticethe guardians generally to that effect.

Capt. Hamilton, P.L.I., directed the master to laybefore tho board Capt. Bucchanon's letter, whichstated the safe arrival in Quebec of the 29 emigrantgirls from this Union ; each received £l and theymoved up the country, where he was certain theywould do well.

LODGING HOUSES.The Chairman brought under the notice of the

guardians a document.which he received, and readfor their information, relative to the common lodg-ing house act, '51, with the view of adopting mea-sures, and calling on the magistrates to take the ne-cessary steps to carry such into operation.

After a few minutes' deliberation on the subject,the board adopted the following resolution, a copyof which was to be placed before the magistratesat petty sessions on Saturday, 12th inst. :—

" Iieiolved— That the boa*d has had impressed on itsattention tbe expense and various evils arising to thisunion from the facility afforded by the great number ofdisorderly, if not disreputable, lodging houses in Dungar-van at present, to vagabonds, and others of bad habits, totake up their ruideuce in the union. And that with theview to obviate or diminish the above evils, tbe magis-trates of Dungarvan bench be requested to take tbe ne-cessary steps for having the common lodging houses'act, of 1851, carried into operation in the town ofDungarvan."

ELECTION OP HEAD NURSE.There were two candidates for this situation,

namely—Mrs. Fox, and Mrs. Coughlan, of Dun-garvan.

The Chairman read the diploma of midwifery, andtestimonials of efficiency and competency of Mrs.Fox, who had been trained in Little Britain-streetinstitution, Dublin.

Mr. Giles—Here you have the testimonial of Dr.Croker, and others, of the competency and effici-ency of Mrs. Fox, who has been in the Dublin insti-tution for some time, and I am quite certain thatDr. Croker would not give Buch a testimonial unlessthe was fully qualified to discharge her duties asnurse.

Mr. M. Byrne said they wanted no person takingout their degrees in midwifery, as the medical officercould perform such duties, and that they did notwant the house to' become a lying-in hospital or areceptacle for every immoral character, &c, and heconsidered Mrs. Coughlan well qualified to fill .thesituation of nurse ; she was capable of reading andwriting, which came within the limits of the adver-tisement, and she was able to read any English pre-scription. She was known to all the guardians as arespectable and well-conducted woman.

Mr. Giles—I saw from Mrs. Coughlan's ownstatement, some time since, that she U not a fit per-

son/for thijjfitaktiflbj tieVer Iwnng1 filled't tjmilarone in any et&rJnifitntW. >Yc4i* have beftne youexcellent ¦ testimonials-of. the- competency- and-effi-ciency of ;J|rs.

Mr. GofT- -We naje g«t heretofore some excellentcharacters and testimonials from' lordsi earls, andviscounts, of schoolmasters and schoolmistresses, andthey were scarcely, three weeks in the house whenthey tamed put to be a parcel'of drunkards, &e.

Mr. Foley—It appears the advertisement in thepapers was not the same as that, which was orderedor directed by the board.

Mr. Bnrron begged to observe that it was the sameas the copy or original, with the exception of threeor four words that were inserted by Mr. Gsrbery,which occurred in this manner—after he drafted thecopy of the advetisement, under the direction of theboard, he sent it to Mr. Carbery to know would itmeet his views, and he made the change as abovestated. He further begged to observe that one ofthe guardians (Mr. M'Cann) had stated that he tooka very active part with regard to this woman, andthat he spoke to Dr. Battersby in her favour, &c—Now, Doctor, as a gentleman, did I speak to youwith regard to this woman on any occasion ?

Dr. Battersby—No. I have no knowledge of thewoman whatever, but I know the institution whereshe was trained.

Mr. M'Cann—I deny that I spoke of it, but I saidthat I saw the doctor and you sitting at the oppositeside of the. table talking together, and having beena member of this board for the last five years, Inever saw such a course of proceeding carried onas there has been this day against the appointment.

A Guardian—Doctor do you consider Mrs. Cough-lan qualified to fill the situation of nurse in thishouse 1

Dr. Battersby—I have no objection to any nurseyou appoint, but from the high testimonials laid be-fore you by Mrs. Fox from Dr. Croker, a gentlemanwhom he knew would not recommend her from theinstitution, unless he was well aware of her efficiencyand competency to discharge her duties as nurse, hewas in favor of Mrs. Fox.

After a few other remarks, the two candidateswere put in nomination.

Mr. Fitzgerald proposed Mrs. Fox, who was se-conded by Mr. Giles.

Mrs. Coughlan was proposed by Mr. Byrne, andseconded by Mr. Beresford.

A poll was demanded, and Mrs. Coughlan wasreturned by a vote of 7 to 3.

Mrs. Coughlan was then called before the boardand received her appointment as nurse, at the an-nual salary of £13, with rations, &c.

A protest was immediately entered against herreturn :

We beg leave to protest against the resolution of thisday, appointing Bridget Coughlan us head nurse , on thegrounds of the terms of the advertisement not havingbeen complied with, no testimonial as to character hav-ing been sent in by her to the board, and it appearingto us very doubtful whether the person appointed bequalified, no evidence thereof having been furnishedeither. Signed, JOHN QUINLAN,

A. M. GILES,A. FlT7.OF.RALD.

CONVENT RATrNO.The following was next read :—

Sunsarvan, 9th August, 1854.G CMTI .RMRX ,—The ladies of the Presentation Convent respect-

fully, and they trust now opportunely, renew their claim to ex-emption from ratios for the poor, on the grounds that they edu-cate in elementary literature nnd industrial training, over 500indigent female children, and clothe nnd feed many of the mostdestitute of them, as set out more fully in your resolution of the23rd February last, for which you have the thanks of the com-munity,, &c.

We are confident when you recollect that nearly all our esta-blishment is occupied by thote poor creatures, you wi.l be influ-enced hy the same spirit of justice, nnd direct your cleric notto carry out any rating in the books against, the convent savewhat the landlord is linble for the rent , as other public insti-tutions. I remain, gentlemen, your obedient servant ,

MARY O'.MARA, Prioress.To the Chairman of the Dungarvan hoard of eunrdians.The subject of this communication will be consi-

dered at a future period.REDUCTION IN THE NUMBER OF RELIEVING OFFICERS.

Mr. Quinlin gave notice of motion that he wouldmove, that two of the relieving officers be disconti-nued, and that the union be divided between the re-maining two, the great reduction that has been tak-ing place for some time in the number of applicantsfor relief having rendered it unnecessary to continuemore than two officers.

A LADY SEWN-UP TO BE TIIESENT AT COURT.—AtWestminster County Court, on Saturday, an actionwas brought by Miss Young, dress-maker, Old Bur-lington-street, against the defendant Miss HarrietWalrond, daughter of Lady Walrond, No. 16, Cha-pel-place, Grosvenor-srjuare, to recover the sum of£20 for a court-dress, in which that young lady wasto be presented at her Majesty's Drawingroom. Inanswer to her solicitor, plaintiff stated that her claimwas for a tulle dress, with lace flounces, and amongstthe items was eleven yards of " delusion" (laughter).Tha .order was given by Lady W., but the dressbeing for the daughter, she had sued that lady.—Witness had made 19 applications for payment, butbeing unable to obtain the money, had institutedthe present proceedings. Defendant's solicitor saidthe dress in question was a misfit, that Miss Walrondwas under age, and therefore could not be liable,and that Miss Walrond would no doubt have settledthe demand, had the plaintiff not been so impor-tuning ; and, in fact, on several of her applicationsrude. Lady Walrond deposed that she desired theplaintiff to make her daughter a dress, which, onbeing sent home, was too large, and was conse-quently sent back to be altered. When returned itwas still too large, but the Queen's Drawing-room,at which it was required to be worn, being near, itwas kept, and on Miss Walrond putting it on beforeshe could wear it, she was obliged actually to besown up in it (laughter). Plaintiff's solicitor—Sewnup.m it I what does your ladyship mean (laughter) ?Lady Walrond—In fastening behind, thread ex-tended across the back was used in securing it, thegrinning stitches being screened by a lace visite(laughter) . In answer to the judge, Lady Walrondsaid that the " delusion" spoken of as belonging tothe dress was a bright garment worn beneath theskirt to set it off, and be seen at a distance (laugh-ter). His Honor, amid much laughter, observedthat that was to him a new explanation of the word" delusion," and said it was quite clear the plaintiffhad proceeded against the wrong party. Miss Wal-rond being what the law termed an infant, and LadyWalrond having the order, her ladyship was theproper person to have been sued. Judgment for thedefendant.

How TO SAVE TII E POTATOE.—A Welshman speaksvery confidently in the following scrap which weextract, and which we would recommend our farm-ing friends to reduce to practice with a portion oftheir crop :—" Many persons will be glad to learnthat there is a first-rate remedy against the potatodisease —it is simply this : Get them up in time.—AH early potatoes set in March or the begining ofApril should all be got up in July ; all late sorts ofcveTy description should be got up by the middle ofAugust. The proper time to get them is while thetops are quite flourishing, and before the potatoeshave arrived at their full growth. If this is done,and they are laid in rows about a hamper thick onthe open ground, and pretty well covered with strawor any dry material (not potatoe tops), they willgenerally be found to keep well. This plan hasnever failed with me for seven consecutive years.—The potatoes should not be covered with soil forabout two months. Unless potatoes are set early inthe spring, there is no chance for them.—GeorgeSlater, Hulme Mills, near Knutaford, Cheshire."

It is sometimes forgotten that the heat o£ the sunpasses through the air without wanning it; but whenit falls on the earth, that becomes hot, and then theair that touches it gets warm also.

A DECIDEDLY GREAT COUNTRY.—Illinois, U.S.,would make forty such States as that of Rhode Isl-and, and the territory of Minnesota sixty. The Stateof Ohio exceeds either Ireland, Scotland, or Portu-gal, and equals Scotland, Belgium, and SwiUerlandtogether. >

. 'Mr. MACARTSEY ajkedthechief tecrettry for Ire-land whether he, had any objection' to lay- upon thetable of. the house.' copiei of; all;:applications, :'andrecommendations: madeito him;1 in; favour' of Mr;O'Flaherty, as being Qualified for the duties of specialcommissioner of ineoa>a/Ux for Ireland ; land alsothe date of bis submitting the name of Mr. Q'Flahertyto the Chancellor of the Exchequer as a fit and pro-,per person to fill that office ? :

Sir J. YOOHQ said thn't he had, of course, everyobjection to produce letters which had been, writtento him in private confidence. ' A:great many of thoseapplicatians and recommendations bad been address-ed to him by word of mouth, and ho return of themcould by any possibility be made. In his opinion aman holding an official situation was responsible forany appointment he might make, and could have noright to throw that responsibility on "the authors ofany applications which might hare been addressedto him. With respect to the date of the letter inwhich he had submitted the name of Mr. O'Flahertyto the Chancellor of the "Exchequer, he had only tostate that he had kept no copy of that letter, andcould not state the precise day on which it had beenwritten.

THE PARLIAMENTARY PRINTING MANIA.Mr. FITZROY complained of the manner in which

returns were moved for by members, putting thecountry to. enormous expense, without giving infor-mation of vital importance. He laid upon the table,not without considerable difficulty, an immense bulkof MS papers moved for by the hon. member forElgin, and said that ho. was assured the hon. mem-ber who had moved for it was iufonned at the timethat he could obtain all the information he sought forin the pages of the census returns. As this was ahabit which was really becoming rather a nuisance,he did hope before the next session of parliamentthat means would be devised by means . of whichsome check might be put to this practice (hear).Perhaps he might be allowed to refer to some parti-culars of a return moved for in 1852, and which hadonly been laid before the house this session, withrespect to local rates. This return was subdividedinto so many heads and comprised so much detailthat the cost of the paper alone and the number ofdifferent persons employed in procuring that returnwere really almost incredible. With the permissionof the house he would read a short statement whichhad been prepared on the subject. To obtain thisreturn upwards of 34,500 circular letters were sentout from the poor law board and the home office,and returns were received in accordance with thoseletters. Those returns having been received, 'hadto be made up into 328 tables, and 260 distinct cal-culations were made in order to reduce them intotheir proper form. The paper alone required wasseventy-two reams of foolscap, and the weight of thepaper, together with the envelopes, was 1,388 pounds.He was told that return, which had never yet beenadded up, because no office could be found to under-take the task with its present staff, would requiretwo clerks during at least one year, in order to addup the separate items, and that, when comple-ted, they would afford no information whatever.

The Lords' amendments to the common law pro-cedure act were agreed to.

INCOME TAX (IRELAND) .Mr. MACARTNEY moved for a copy of any treasury

minute or order by which the office of special com-missioner of income tax for, Ireland was abolished ;and also, the date when the duties and salaries ofGodbyand O'Flaherty, as such commissioners ceased.The honourable member said, in England it was wellknown special commissioners were appointed—gen-tlemen of station and respectability ; but in Irelandthe office had been abolished—a measure contrary tolaw, for the special commissioners formed the tribu-nal of appeal. Ireland required that this questionshould be explained.

Sir J. YOUNO said there was no objection to thereturn, but the honourable member was in error inhis ideas as to the office of special commissioner inIreland. The commissioners had nothing to do, asthere were no appeals.

Colonel DUNNE said the appeals were not madebecause it was not understood in Ireland how theywere to be conducted and determined. But hewanted to know when Mr. O'Flaherty ceased to becommissioner, in order that it might be knownwhether the offences he committed had been com-mitted while he was in office. ' He (Col . Dunne), be-lieved that they were, and that they were commitedby means of the facilities afforded in his office. Theappointment was a most injurious one, and one whichought never to have been made.

Mr. WHITESIDE said the absence of appeals hadbeen owing partly to the character of the appoint-ments made. He did not allude to Mr. Godby, butto Mr. O'Flaherty;

Mr. I. BUTT said the right hon. baronet the ChiefSecretary for Ireland had wholly misunderstood theduties the duties of the special commissioners ofIncome .Tax in Ireland. The right hon. baronethad assumed that they had no duties but appeals.They had also the business of claims for exemptionof reduction. Theoe claims were to be adjudicatedby the special commissioners. Classes of personswho were overcharged in the first instance with theincome tax claimed for it to be returned, and theirclaims to such return were to be decided by the spe-cial commissioners. He should like to know whowas now to decide these questions—a very onerousand delicate duty I

The motion was agreed to.

PROROGATION OF PARLIAMENTThe session of 1853-4 was brought to a close on

Saturday morning, by the Queen in person. Theweather which is usually fine when her Majesty en-gages in any public ceremonial, was somewhatthreatening—indeed, early in the morning therewere slight showers, which continued more or lessthroughout the day. As early as ten o'clock thePark and the streets along the line of route receivedlarge numbers of visitors.

Her Majesty, accompanied by his Royal High-ness Prince Albert, left Buckingham Palace in thestate carriage, which was diawn by six cream-co-loured horses, according to usual custom, precededuy a large uvuy ut tiie yeuin^u ox me guard, anaescorted by,a body of the Royal Horse Guards.—The Master of the Horse and the Mistress of theRobes were also in her Majesty's carriage. Theprocession moved along the s Mall, passing the Yorkcolumn, which was densely crowded with people.The space between the York Cbhmn and the HorseGuards was equally well attended with visitors, whowere most enthusiastic in expressing-' their., ap-plause. Emerging from the Horse. GuardB, the pro-cession came upon the "Chapel Royal, along thefront of which galleries were erected for the accom-modation of the public. Here, and along Whitehall,Parliament-street, and Palace Yard) her Majestywas received in a most enthusiastic manner.

At two o'clock her Majesty arrived at tbe Houseof Lords, entering by the Victoria Tower, where shewas received by tbe high officers of state. , At thismoment the royal standard was hoisted, and theguns were fired in St, James's Paik. >•

The Queen having taken her seat upon the throne,the members of the House of Commons were sum-moned to the bar,, and her Majesty then read'thefollowing spsech :—

" Deeply sensible of these advantages, it is my hum-ble prayer that we mav continue to enjoy the fbroar ofthe Almighty; and that under His graoions protectionwe may be enabled to bring the present contest to a justand honourable termination."

At the conclusion, of the speech,- The Lord CHANCELLOR declared that it was herMajesty's wish that parliament should be prorogueduntil the 19th of October next.

During the prorogation, the Home of Lords pre-sented the exciting scene which is invariably witness-ed when the Queen attends in person. As on formeroccasions, the whole of the seats in the body of thehouse were alloted to the wives and daughters ofpeers, and other distinguished ladies. These werealso entirely filled by half-past one o'clock, and asthe dresses of the fair occupants were of every ima-ginable colour and design, it is almost unnecessaryto say that the coup d"ceil was brilliant and dazzling.There was a considerable sprinkling of ladies inmourning attire.

HOUS E OF COMMONS— SATURDAY.Colonel SIBTHORFE gave notice that early next

session he should renew his motion for a reduction oftbe duty on fire insurance.

Mr. PHINK gave notice that next session he shouldmove for leave to bring in a bill to amend the lawTelaiting to assaults upon women nnd children.

Mr. HUME asked the noble president of the coun-cil if Austria or Prussia was prepared with us todemand from Russia some substantial securities that,in future, the peace of Europe should not be dis-turbed by Russia upon such slight causes as thosewhich had led to the present war (hear, hear). Ithad been announced, in another place, that Russiaintended to evacuate the principalities, while Austriawas not indisposed to help England and France tosecure a speedy peace. He should be glad, as nodoubt the country would be, to hear the noble lordconfirm that statement (hear).

Lord J. RUSSELE said a communication had verylately been made by the Russian ambassador to thecourt of Vienna, stating that it was the intention ofRussia to evacuate the two principalities of Walla-chia and Moldavia. At the same time an inter-change of notes took place between the foreignminister of Austria and the ambassadors cf Englandand France, which specified the terms upon whit frthe latter powers were prepared to make peace withRussia. What these terms ware, would be found inthe letter of the foreign minister of France, whichappeared in to-day's papers ; but as this interchangeof notes occured after the announcement of Russiathat she intended to evacuate the principalities, itremained to be seen whether Austria would preferto communicate these notes to St. Petersburg, witha view of opening further negotiations for peace, orwhether she would rather-immediately set her mobi-lised army in motion, for the purpose of assuringEngland and Frahce in obtaining by force the'secu-rities which th'ey demand. It was satisfactory, how-ever, to know that while Austria *ould not b*content with a return to the status quo, she generallyapproved of the securities which had been proposedto her (hear.) - !
