      At this season of the year , when all nature is assuming new life , and fresh energies appear to enter the human frame at the prospect of returning summer , we know of no greater drawback to our enjoyment than the customary return of those seasonable afflictions , Corns and Bunions . Few , indeed , there are , who bave not been at tome time , sufferers by these tormenting evils . We do know , however , that the number is much less than formerly , owing to the astonishing cures tffected by tbe extended use of _PAuii _' s Evebv Mah _' s Fbirku ; and our present object is to point out to those unacquainted with the good results et this application , tbat by its nse they will certainly acauire not onlv ease to their feet but from

Sib , — It is now three years and a half since 1 was sorely afflicted with Rheumatic Gout , tbe suffering _froxi which induced me to try alt the proposed reraedies that extensive medical experience could devise , without _» btaiaing any satisfactory relief trom pain . During ono of the paroxysms a friend advised me to try Blair ' s Gout and Rheumatic Pills , observing that he had in some severe cases taken them himself , and they proved very successful . I instantly adopted his advice , and to my joy the excruciating torment soon began to abate , and a few boxes restored me to health , since which I have bad no return of the complaint . I trust you will give publicity to my case , that suffering humanity may know how to obtain a remedy for tbis distressing disease . I am , Sir , your obedient humble servant ,

Not arriving _ihqnirliB were made , and at nine e'clcck last night be was found on the footpath ' qoite dead , havteg evidently expired of apoplexy , Thoresby is about six miles from _TFtlbeok ,..

      William George Frederick Cavendish Bentinck was born in February , 1812 , _belag the second _« on of tbe pre . lent Duke of Portland , _rtho is now in bis eighty . firat year , by Henrietta , daughter and _oo-heirese of _Mejor _General _Sp ot ' t , and the sister of the Viscountess Canning .

He bad one unmarried liter , Lady Mary . -Lord George completed his eduoa . tion ' at Christ Cnurch , Oxford , and served iu bis earlier years in the brigade of guards , having retired from the army with the rank of Major .

      TBB INQUEST . . The inquest en tbe body was held on Saturday , at eleven o'clock , at Walbeck Abbey . Thejury having been sworn , . ] The Coroner ( P . Fflulkener , Esq , of Newark ) brii fly detail _*^ to fhem the melancholy circumstance whioh bad called them together , and _, tbey then , proceeded to view tbe Wdy , wbich lay ia the bed room usually . occupied by his lordship . The body presented no external mark ] of Injury , excepting a slight abrasion over the lift eye and oa the nose . Oa the chest and bands there was some extravasation of blood , arising'from tbo position in which the body had lain . The Csroner directed a pott mortem examination to be made , and while t _** at was being proceeded with by Hr Ward and Ur Mill" , his assistant , tho evidence of the following witnesses was taken : —

      William Pets—I have been in tbe secvioe of the Dake of Portland about seven years aa footman . I always waited at breakfast , and usually saw Lord George Ben . tinck wben he was at Welbeok . Oh Monday , tbe llth , he arrived here from London .- Every meming during tbat wetk , be . breakfasted at Welbeok , and on four days went to _Doncester rases , returning here each night . I _waited at dinner , aad saw bis lordship there every night . I never saw bim in better health and _eplritB than he bas been . _eince he came from town . On Thursday morning he breakfasted with bis father , the Dake of Portland , Sir William Soymour , and Lady Harriet Bentinck . He ate a very hearty breakfast—more hearty , indeed , than _mnali and waa in exceedingly good spirit * . He was occupied In the _raoralng in his dressing roe » writing letters . He remained at home till about ten minutes past four in the afternoon , when be Bit out to walk to Thoresby , tlie teat of Earl _Manvers , where he proposed to stay for two days .

      Richard _Lvntheli—I am the _helptr in the stables at Welbeck . On Thursday Inst , about five minutes past four , I started with a gig from Welbeck to Thoresby ; with Gardner , valet to Lord George Bentinck , On the _rosd , Gardner drew my attention to bis _lordthip , and on turning round I saw htm walking past the R _, in Dim Park corner , by tbe footpath toward * . Thoresby . I sever saw bim afterwards alive . I went forward to Thoresby ] His _lordihip never reached there . I left his lordship ' s valet at Thorwby , and returned with tbe carriage to Welb . ck . I was called out of bed at night , and asked if I had seen Lord George on my way home , as he had not reached Thoresby . I got up , ana 'long with Gardner ,

      and George Wilton , went in search for bis loidehip . We took lanterns with ns , and followed on the foot road I bad seen him taking . We found tbe body of bis lordship _lyirg close to tbe gate wbicb separates _Ksnnel Water Meadow . He was quite dead and lying on his face . His hat was a yard or two before bim , having evidently been thrown off in falling . He was lying flit npon bis face and one of bis arms under bim . I left the three men wltb the body , and immediately started for Mr _Hase , of Worksop , surgeon . A few minutes before we foand the body , Mr Hase bad passed on horseback and asked what we were searching for ? We declined telling him , as we bad no idea that any barm had come to his lordship , and did not wish to set any rumour afLat .

      George Wilson—I am a belper in tbe stables at . Wei . beck . A little after ten o'clock on Thursday night , I , along with Richard Lenthalland William Gardner , went along the path to the _coraer of tbe Deer Park , We found his lordship lying near a gate which he bad passed through .. He was lying on his belly and faoe . His hat was abont a yard and a half before him . His hands were under , bis body , and in one be grasped bis walking stick . The stick was partly underneath _hlui . I felt at bis leg . and it waB stiff and cold . A break was sent for from Welbsck , and in thathe wat removed to the Abbey . I bad not seen bim that morning . There was a little blood npon bis face , Tbe Coroner remarked that , from the appearance of tbe _bruites over bis _Loidihip ' s eye , and tbe blood upon the ground , it was natural to infer that he bad been _seized very suddenly , and fallen with violence on the ground ,

      Tbe witness continued—The blood appeared to have flowed frem . his _Lordth ' _p'enose . _Bee-ldcs that on his face , tbere was some on tbe grass . The body was not moved till Ur Has * came . I and Gardner carried lights with as . R _' _chsrd Evans—I am a labourer , and reside at Nor . ton . About _balf-paat four , or a quarter to five o ' clock , on Thursday afternoon , I saw Lsrd _Gaerge Bandnek standing still , against , tbe gate , and about two yards from the place where be was fuund dead . I wae about two hundred yards from bis lordship , and was going on the old _Worksop-road , which crosses that ou which the gate is situate . I thought it was ihe MarquiB of Tlcbfl \ _-ld . No person was near him . I thought he was reading something , but could not see at tbe distance I was from him .

      Bj a Juror—Did his lordship see you —I cannot _s » y ; he might so , for tbere was nothing to obstruct his view . He did not make any sign to us . Jobn Mee and my son Richard Evans , were with me when I saw his lordship . My ton stood on the road a minute or two to look at him " , I remarked to my bob that I thought itwas the Marquis of Tiobfield . ; Richard Evans , juc . '( son of tbo last witness)—I am ' woodmar ; On Thursday afternoon I was _retarnlng ihome with my father and Jobn Mee , when we saw a gentleman , whom I did not know , standing against tbo gate oh the road In tbe meadow . Wa thought at the itime tbat it was the Marquis of Tiohfield . My father and me passed on tbe road , and I stood for a minute or !« o looking at the gentleman , While 1 was standing be jturned round , and looked towards tbe Kennels . I _jtboagbt he was reading , as , before be turned round , he sheld his head down . He was still standing at the gate _j when I walked on . I was aboHt two hundred yards from the gate . It was about half-past four o'clook .

      John Mee , of Norton , woodman , confirmed tho evidence of tbe two last witnesses as to the faot of seeing L rfd George standing near the meadow gate . Witness did not take any particular notice as to what his lordship was doing _. The Coroner sBld It was singular tbat the body should have laid on the footpath so many hours , aud no person have passed that way , Mr Smith , the constable of Welbeck , said few persons passed along the footpath . His Grace the Duke of Portland frequently passed by that path in the afternoon . _Itbappemd tbat he did not go out on Thursday , or he would probably have been the first to find the body of Lord George Bentinck , Ur J . Shirley Mills deposed—I am assistant to Mr Ward _. ofWeUow . eureton _. I was not acquainted with

      Death Of Lord G. Bentinck. , Tbe Followi...

      Lord Geor ge Bentinck , and never anW Mm alive . I was sent for on Thursday night , and was at Welbeck when the body of Lord George _Benlinok was brought there . It was then aboat two o ' cleck . life had been extinct some hours . I was present when his lordship ' s clothes were removed , There wero no external marks of violence , except a considerable contusion above the left eye . It was suoh a contusion as would be produced by a fall . Tbe bridge of the nose was also injured a little , and the lef * side of the tongue " appeared to be Injured by tho teeth . There was also some extravasated _ blopd _ under the shin of the chest and the right side . His pockets

      were opened In my presence , and In them was £ 12 IDs . In gold and £ 1 8 a . id , ia silver , and in his pocket book there was a oh * _qua for £ 100 , and two £ 5 notes , besides other papers . I was told that there was also a _promlssory note for £ 5 , 000 , but that I did not see . His betting book , his geld pencil , aud gold watch and chain were alio found ia bis pookets . He had two valuable rings 6 b bis fingers . I bave this morning assisted Mr Ward ia making a pott mortem _examintViwa of the head and body _. From tbat examination I am of opinion that he died from a violent _spatm of the heart . We found the organb of the body generally healthy , with the exception of the right lung , of which there were adhesions to tbe aide .

      Mr W . S . Ward , ot We'low , surgeon—I bave known Lord Giorge Bentinck many years , and , when in the country , was bis regular medical attendant , but I had not seen bim since he came from town last , I have this day opened the body , and am of opinion that be died from a violent spatm of tbe heart . Tbere was very little food in the stomach , but thtrewasne morbid _appearance beyond congestion whieh prevailed over tbe whole ays . tern . There was emphysema of the lungs and old adhe . _sioa from former diseases . Tbe heart was large and muscular , and covered with fat . It contained no blood , and bore the _apptararce ef irregular contraction , A Juryman inquired as to the state of the brain of the deceased , Mr Ward , it was perfectly healthy , with the exception of a little venous congestion ia about the same ratio as the other organs * ...

      The Coroner proceeded to read over tbe depoiitioni of the witnesses He _rtmarked that he could have desired that Gardner , his lordship ' s valet , should have been present to give his' evidence . He had , however , gone to London , and his absence was not material , aa other witnesses spoke to every fact wbich could have been deposed to by him . After the evidenoe which they 'had heard , he apprehended that there could be little _difficulty Incoming to s decision as to what their verdict should be .. There did not appear to be anything to raise any apprehension that his lordth ' p had beea unfairly dealt with . Thar *

      were no marks of injury , either internally or externally . His money and valuable property wbioh were about him were found safe and undisturbed . He was found iu a position in . which a person dying suddenly , under such oircnmBtances , was likely to be found . The medloal men had stated that there was no _icjury of any kind , and that the appearances wbich tbey found on the post mor . tm examination were sufficient to account for death , j _AJaror asked if Mr Ward supposed that the blood whioh was found on his Lordship's faoe and on the grass had been produced by the rupture of a blood veaiel in the head ? I

      Mr Ward said he believed it . had not . Hia opinion was that blood had flowed from the nose , in _conspquenoe of the deceased having fallen upon hit face ,, . i The Jury immediately returned a verdiot , f That his lordship bad died by tbe visitation of God , to wit , _o / ja spasm of the heart , ' ¦ _( " The inquest concluded shortly after two o ' olock . i -.

      Mtodbb amd Suicide at Livbbjool . — On Sunday morning , about tea o ' clock , the Inhabitants of Chesterstreet , _Toxtetb-parfe , were alarmed by , the _rurnonr that a murder bad been . ' committed " by a , man named Robert Howartb , residing in that street , who , itwas stated , bad first killed his wife , and afterwards committed _tnleide , Tbe clrcumttanceB of this dreadful event are , as follows : •—The supposed murderer , " v _> ho ii about _forty-ieven years of _sge , was a dealer in cattle , and was an til reoently a wholesale confcctloner . ocouVylng a shop in St James ' s _, afreet , Toxteth . park . Per _lome time back neither bis wife nor family bave ¦• resided with . him , in ooniequemis of some family differences . Since the separation _Howarth had made hia wife a bertain allowance , and on . Friday evening she went'io the , b . ' ons » for tbe purpose of

      reoelving the ustnl monthly stipend from him . As she did not return ,. her friends beoaine alarmed ai tbe evening _, advanced ,. bnt' not having returned on Saturday morning , tbey _beoame still , more alarmed and the day . passed over without any tidings "h aving , been heard of the deceased . _Theistelligtijoe of her absence was oa Sunday communicated te a servant in the employ of her husband , and about seven o ' clock this person having the key of the back -door of Howarth ' s residence , pro * oeeded there along with three other porions , and went upstairs into one of tbe bedrooms , where the unfortunate woman was found stretched on the floor of tho bedroom quite dead h > r head and faoe being surrounded by a large pool of blood , Her dress WIS also torn opes , asd otber general appearances gave evident indications of violence having been used upon her . The body wai

      laving straight out , with the head from tba bed and the legs under it . Tbeythen . drew the clothes from off the bed , where they discovered the body of her husband . They at first thought tbat he waa asleep , but oh a closer inspeoUan they ascertained that be , also , was dead . The body of the husband did net exhibit the slightest marks of violenoe ; neither was there any appearance about the face to ' indicate . death , the ' deceased looking ai in a sound sleep . _Oneearohing the bedroom no deadly _weapen was found ; but on ' again going' down stairs Into the kitchen a cup was discovered oontaininr a mixture sup ' posed , to be ar _* er . Io (/ It appears that on Friday evening her husband was dreadfully agitated in consequence of having lost a considerable sum ef money in a purchase of cattle , and he' repeatedly said to his wife ' s lister early that evening thathe was almost inclined to deprivehim .

On Tuesday , Mr Haverty , the surgeon ; who had made a post mortem examination of the bodies , deposed that he had found a large quantity of poison in the stomachs of botb , but was not satisfied as to its nature . He was certain however that it was not pure amnio , The ooronsr said lie should again adjourn the inquiry , in order that ths poison might be analysed , and the inquest was again adjourned . On Wednesday Mr Haverty , tbe surgeon , deposed that both tho above bad died from the « _ffeats of arsenic , a small quantity of which the male deceased was proved to bave bought six weeks ago . After the coroner bad summed up . an open verdiot of ¦ ' Found dead' was retained ,:

      Incbmdiabt Fibs . —A fire oocurredou the , 20 th inst . at Caytborpe , Bine mile * from the town of Nottingham , oh the farm of Mr Faulke ' _and nearly all theoorn and hay stacks were destroy ad . It is believed to be the aot of an inoendiary . j Incendiabish ik _OxroBDsnuE . — . On Sunday mora _, ing soon after six o ' clock a fire broke out In the _riok-yard of Mr White , a farmer , living at the village of Cowley ; about two miles from this city . An instant alarm was given , and an express sent off to Oxford for the engines which soon after arrived . Tbo fire was confined to two large bean and one large wheat rick , whioh were completely destroyed . Tbe fire , thero is no doubt , was the aot of an Incendiary , Mr White is , we understand , in J _sured .

      Mdbdjeb m Sussex . —Oo Saturday Inst an adjourned inquest was held at Cbarley , Sussex , on the body of aa infant found drowned in . a well in that village , on the 26 th Inst . It _appoared that five or six months ago , Hannah Sandles , widow , came into tbe worhbouie of tbe Charley Union wltb two children , and on tbe 20 tb of July was confined of a tblrd . She remained in the work- * house until the 8 h inst ., when she left wltb her three children , about a quarter pBBt nine o ' clock in tbe morn- ' lag for the purpose—as sbe said—of going to London ; The body of an infant being found in a well was identified as that taken away by the woman , wbo was fol . lowed to London and apprehended , She had then twe children , but declined saying what had become of the third . —Charlotte Simmons , a pauper Inmate of the workhouse , deposed tbat Sandles bad often expressed a wish that the child might die , and that God would take it . Henry-. Birry , sergennt of tbe M division of tbe

      metropolitan police ; _bnard the prisoner iay _, speaking of a shilling whioh she bad received on leaving the union house , ' They knew when they gave me the shilling that I could not reach Londoa with the ' _child . ' The prisoner declined asking questions , or making any statement . Tbe jury returntd a verdiot of' Wilful murder' against her , and sbe was thereupon committed to Lewes gaol to take ber trial at the next assizes , on the eapltal charge . Gauino Hocsss at Doscabtib Races . —During the evening of Friday in the Donoaster race week , the magistrates and police entered a gaming house called ' The Berkeley Club House . ' They seized all the money , on tho tables ( above £ 60 ) and captured six or seven of tbe players . On tho following day they were brought up heforathe magistrates , when the principal defendant , _juhn _Durdou , was fined £ 100 , which sum was imme . dlately paid . The oase was not pressed against the other defendants , ' . ' "

      Suicidi of a Box . —On the 20 th inst . a boy of tbe name of Bogle , scaroely thirteen years of age , employed asherdboy by Mr Johnston , _Northesk-road ,: had gone out to tend bis cows on the lands of Little Mill , about a mile from Montrose , and was shortly after found by tbe servants suspended front a tree within a few yards of the house . - They instantly cut bim down and sent for medl . oal assistance . Dr _Burness was soon on the spot , when artificial respiration and everything else that medical skill could devise was tried to restore animation ; but all in vain—the vital spark had fled . On examining the tree the child ( we can _soaroely call him anything else ) had takes bis knife and carefully notched the branoh to prevent tbe cord from slipping , and the rope was adjusted so as to _< xilnguisb life In the shortest time . He could have easily saved himself by putting up his hand and taking bold of the branch , which wbb only a few iaobes above his bead . _—ifontrote Standard .

Tbe fire , the : origin of which ie unknown , broke out in the latch room , * whence , from tbe extreme dryness of the materials , it rapldly spread to tbe surrounding timber ; the store room in tbe yard , forming one side of _Grlffiths-Bueet _, was _completely destroyed , and its valuable contents , chiefly mahogany and furniture woods , fell a prey to the flames .

      The _eogiaei of ' the West of England Company and of the _Llverpoel fire police were _quiokly on the spot , but , frem a total absence of water from the mains for a conalterable time after their arrival , th » y were rendered inoperative . Tho premises and stock , we learn , were insured , but whether so as to cover tbe damage , wbich must necessarily be very great , we do not knew , Mr Wright being absent from town . Had tbe fUmes extended in the opposite direotion to which they did , in all probability that beautiful structure Great Georgestreet Chapel , would ere this have been again in ruaai . iKVAtmoiBB At Walkbb . — A melancholy _oass of in . _faniioido oocurred at Walker , en Thursday week last . The delinquent , Margaret Moore , is a girl , about twenty _, two years of . age , and lives with her father at Walker

      Colliery , where he is brakesman , It appears that for some time past the neighbours had _euepeoted that she was _encsinU . On that morning , she took a _ekeel , under pretence ' of fetching water from a well about half a mite distant ; and , near to this place , haying been delivered , she buried the child beneath some sand and stones . Bring unable to . reach hone , she was assisted by her elder sister , who alio seat for a doctor ; Mr Smith , surgeon , having arrived , and discovered the cause of her illness , the child was found as deaerlbed . AnlnqueBt mi held In the _eolllery-otnee the following day b . foro Stephen Reed , Esq ., ooronsr . The prlnolpal witness , Mr Septimus Sr & Ub . sworn , said he was a surgeon , and lived at Walker . He had known Margaret Moore for some time , She was a single woman , abont twenty-two

      years of age ,, He attended the family , and about two months ago , having been sent to see her when she was unwell , he suspected she was pregnant . He saw her on Wednesday morning week a little before twelve , at her sister's' house , in bed . Htr sister said that on going to the well , she had fainted , and was then unwell , but he found that she had borne a child . A search was made for the child , and from a mark ef blood upoa a stone and near It in a ditch , under a heap of stones the body was discovered . From a subsequent _jpost-tnortim examination , bis belief was that the child bad been born with life . After hearing tht evideaoe of other _witnessei _, thejury were then addressed by the coroner , and after a short consultation , returned a verdiot of' Wilful Murder against Margaret Mooro , ' who was accordingly committed for trial .

      MisTttieus Casb . —On Friday week an inquest wat held at the Chaise snd Pair ,. North Hill , Colchester , upon the body of an Infant three days old , named George Francis Bayley , sen of a person who reoently opened a small shop on North Hill . Tbe coroner told thejury that at there had been some _suBplolous rumoars _abeut this case , Mr Carr , the _ clergyman of tbe pariah , refused to bury theoblld till some inquiries bad been instituted . Thoso inquiries rather strengthened the suspicion pre ! vieuly entertained that the child bad been prematurely born , in consequenoe of something taken by the mother to produee labour , and it was therefore deemed necessary to hold the present inquiry . The jury then proceeded to . view tht body . Ib-the course of the previous night the parent * had deoamp ' ed , ' and the bouse bore

      evidence of extreme poverty ; there was net a single artiole of furniture Jn any of the rooms ; and the entire ttook of the shep , _btyend the display of empty boxes , was scarcely worth _balf-a-crown . Mr Harrington , the _regl-ira _^ of . _theid ' striot _, deposed tbat io oon'eqaenoe Of a message he called upon the father , and registered at the same time the , birth and death of the child , in the nameef _Gfldrga Francis Bayley ; the father signed his name F . Ba ) i _»> , _*' and gave that of . the mother as ' _laleAllea . ' ' The date of this birth was Sept ., 16 th , and the death the 18 th ; tke cause of the death was stated to be convulsions ,. Sarah Noi man , _anurse stated that she was called by . a neighbour to go to M » b Bayley , about foar o olock on Saturday morning j the was' rolling about in great pain , with nothing bnt a handle of straw

      to lie upon . In answer to a question , she said sbe could not be in labour , as she had only gone fire _moaths of her time . Witness afterwards fdnad sbe was jto , and went to Mr _^ Norman , surgeon , who declined to attend her , witbout . an order fromtherellevlng tfader _,. but lent her ' an" anodyne powder . The child was boni about * six o ' okek ; ' It had oastor oil the ntxfc day ; but could n 6 t _> e ' b ' roughtto ' _take ' any nWrisbment , and never opened its eyei . ; A neighbour Oaine in and tried to give it the breast , but wllhoni _auccess . On Monday . morni . ag the took it to Mr Norman's by consent of the mother , and htgaveita powder . On _Tuesdayeveaibg it had * a _flight ' convulsion , and died about ten o'clock . ' Witness ' was OBrtara '' that while the child lived fcvery care wat taken of it . v" When she took it to Mr Carr ' _s to b » named he inquired particularly If tho parties were married , rjnd . tbe put the question to the mother on her return ; but oould get no direct _aaswer : the

      mother merely _tald the wondered wbat _buiintst people had to ask the ' question , Mr Norman , surgeon , stated that when the ohlld was brought to him it was ' Buffering from jaundice ; which he had nodoubt was the oause of death ; convulsions were sometimes symptoms : of that disorder ; he bad Just examined the body , and had bo reason to suppose , th » t _theohUd jwas unfairly treated ; le thought if it had _bten there _wpold bave been other Ijffiptomi during life . With reference to the mother he had ascertained that she had inquired at several places for the plant ' _penny-royal , ' and ultimately prooured ¦ _omein the _market , _'bdt he cenld not say whether she ever took it . The . Coroner said , after the evidence of Mr Norman ,, that he considered the child to have died from natural causes , tbe whole oase felite the ground , and it would be useless to pursue the Inquiry further . The jury roturned a verdict of ' Died from Natural Causes . '

      IBS BTATE TRIALS—STATE OF THB _SOTJIH-JanOBATlOH ( . From wr oiwi Correspondent . _^ Dubun , Tuesday , Sept . 25 . The Commission in Clonmel for the trial of the unfortunate' ' rebels ' opened last week . Tho hordes ef informers , * defectives , ' spies , perjurers , and vagabonds , have done their business satisfactorily to their paymasters , and TRUE BILLS FOR HIGH TREASON have been found against Smith O'Brien , T , F ° . Meagher , aad others of those arraigned . The judges and law officials up to this have done their part in a fair aud _geatlemauly manner but there it little doubt from tbe net-work ef information and _sp-iim already prepared , and the blackguard charaoter of 'he greater number of tae _. _wltaeises , that ooaviotion in all

      cases will ensue , and there is also very little doubt but heavy punishment will be awarded on ttch conviction , Some go ao far a . 'to iay that each man who took a part in tht Ballingarry battle will be banged . The Londoa correspondent of the Fbmhah ' _s Jocbmai , has been exceeding Bjtron Munchausen himself in tbe tales he tells In connexion with this subject . That extraordinary gtniut , named Doyle , bas been the laughing-stook of the country during the by-gone week . He writes to his _empleyers to say that he is prepared to prove that when Lord John Russell was in Ireland , a council was held , at whioh assisted his lordship , together with the Lsrd Liiutenant , and Messrs Monaban and Hatchel , the Attorney General and Solicitor Genual of Ireland . At this council the _approaching state trials , their chances and

      probable consequences , were energetically discussed ; when all was over , it was unanimously agreed tbat in etch oase of _oonvlction for high tr- > aa » n , ' _instanlbanging ' should be the sentence awarded ! Suoh is the discovery wbich tbat wondrous' little Doyle' has made ; and truly , how he in some dingy corner of Londoa , could alone of all the world ferret out the secrets of the Irish Ctuno'l Chamber , seems extraordinary , the fact is , the man must be rem anting , or may be' in the horrors' when he penned such absurd trash . Nobody , however , is stupid enough to credit one word of the report ; and though we all are of opinion that the * rebels' ( if convicted ) will find little meroy , still every body is offended at tbe un « blushing _effrontery in whleh such ridiculous coinage is attempted to be passed upon the publio .

      The number of witnessei arrayed for the trials approaches to one hundred , and , singular to iay , there are very few of these who have not' something to say' about ptor O'Brien , Every traitor ' s hand will be raised to identify that unfortunate gentleman , —every perjured tongue Ib ready to swear away his life . A few of those witnesses belong to the more ' respectable' classes of sooiety , but the great majority are supplied from the police detectives and the offscourings of tbe peasantry of Ballingarry and Its vicinity . It is strange tbat if Mr Meagher took any prominent part in tbe _Billingarry affair , tbat tbere is nobody to identify him but one woman named Mary Kaenan . This woman is said to be the ill . fi . ttd young gentleman ' s own _nurte , —far ad . _vanoed in age , grty . _beaded , and feeble . It is rare in * died , in Ireland , to find the nurse or the fosterer turn false to the fostered , but in these days , a curse seems to have fallen upon us in every manner . The trials will aotually commence on Friday next , aad it is probable they will not be over for several days .

      The 'insurgents' of the South are quiet again . There are no mobs now in the woods , or on taemoun . tains ; and though tbe _signal-fireB gleam from a thou _, sand hills every night , and though the rebel ' s horn is heard echoing through the Tipperary _glent at all hours , there it no march or muBter of tho insurgent army ! They have lost all hope ia leaders , in demagogues , in agitation , and even ia war . They see themselves duped aad betrayed by everybody , and tbey will no louger put themselves at any body's meroy . They will not fight ! Sdll we won ' t have a week ' s peaoe in Monster . After the commission is over there will be murders and burnings , and outbreaks and robberies , without end . A single regiment r eannot be spared from Ireland , and England will find this island too expensive an affair to be maintained in the present fashion .

      The English papen bring ui news of Mr O'Connors re-election for Nottingham , of the sadden death of Lord _Goorge Bentinck , and of the projected visit of Baron Parke to Ireland , for the purpose of being present at tbe State Trials in Clonmel . We feel _rejoioed at tbe high position Mr O'Connor maintains amongst hit cob . stitueuta , and in England generally , despite the _treaoherous doings of revengeful and interested enemies . The truth is powerful , however ; and whilst that gentleman keeps within the path of honour and recti _, tude , he may , well laugh to derision tbe impotent attacks of the ridiculous drivellers of the corrupt London PreBS , Nobody in Ireland believes a word of what they say against Mr O'Connor , and , indeed , so low are they held in common repute , that vary few would be seen reading the greator number of those prostitute prints .

      The Rotatory Parliament party hold their sittings every Monday , The meeting of last Monday was well attended , and several high and influential Barnes were added to the list of . members . Their projected organ , the _Iui 8 H Examines wbb to appear on last Saturday , but owing te tome disappointment at the Stamp Office , it waa delayed until next Saturday . Another new j rami ( said to be tbe Nation revived ) is about te be started here in a few days . It is to be a weekly paper ; to be oalled tbe National , and published at the office of the late Nation ,
