That the unusnal coldness of the weather has principally produced this remit may be inferred from the excess of deaths at advanced age 3 , and from the increased number caused by diseases of the organs of respiration .

Since his condemnation he has been permitted to walk in a yard belonging to the prison , accompanied by a guard . He was taking his usual airing , and while the

      attendant was looking another way , he made a desperate leap , and succeeded in scaling the wall like a cat . At the top of the wall some stout iron railings are placed , but he contrived to run along the wall , and succeeded in springing some distance to the top of another wall , which he imagined to be the boundary of the prison ; but in this he was mistaken , for there was still another beyond , and from the peculiar construction of the building he was unable to proceed any further . His movements were soon perceived and the alarum being rung , several of the turnkeys were immediately on the look-out . The prisoner , finding his escape impossible , waited patiently till a ladder was set for him to descend . He was then conveyed to his cell and securely manacled .

      The Rotal Bank . —This company has declared a dividend on the past six months at the rate of & > per cent , per annum . Lord Eglinton ' s Irish Policy . —Addresses of congratulation on his appointment to the Viceroyalty of Ireland were presented to his Excellency the Earl of Eglinton on Monday by deputations from Trinity College and the Corporation of Dublin . The replies of his Excellency have given great satisfaction to the citizens of all parties and ranks . His response to a passage in the corporation address respecting the Whig design of abolishing the office of Lord Lieutenant is regarded as a proof of his determination to guard and cherish the institutions and the true interests of the country . The first deputation consisted of the Provost , Fellows , Scholars , and Students of Trinity College ,

      numbering about 1 , 000 persons , and was perhaps the most numerous that ever attended on a similar occasion . As soon as they bad assembled , his Excellency , theEari of Eglinton , entered the Presence Chamber , and received them in the most cordial and friendly manner . Tho Rev . Dr . Luby having read the address , his Excellency read a reply , in which he said : — " I have no official fame , and but little political experience to recommend me ; but . if an earnest desire to ameliorate the social position of Ireland , to stimulate her energies , to promote her interests , and to conciliate her internal dissent si-ins—if a firm determination to pursue a straight and honest course , uninfluenced by private considerations or irresponsible advisers , should enable me , in some measure , to overcome the difficulties which surround my path , then , and not till then . I will boast of the confidence you repose in

      me , and look back with pride to the reception of this address . "You say moBt truly , that while illiberal prejudices should be discouraged , the cause of religion and virtue must be upheld ; that while salutary changes should be acceded to , rash innovations must be avoided ; that while the spirit of constitutional liberty should be our guide , and the rights of conscience respected , the interests of those great and good institutions which belong to us should he fostered , and the Majesty of the law upheld . " The Lor . l Mayor read the address of the corporation , in which allusion was made to the contemplated abolition of the Viceroyalty . His Excellency in reply assured the deputation that he would have opposed any measure framed for that object . He then said : — " I know that others far better qualified by their talents , their acquirements , and their political

      exnerience have failed before me , in establishing peace and happiness in this country , and the difficulties in the way of success are enough to make the stoutest heart quail ; but I will hope almost against hope , that a land so fair in its aspect , so rich in its soil , so temperate in its climate , will not always remain waste—that a people so warm-hearted and so full of genius will not always remain at variance with each other—and that Ireland may soon become contented and prosperous among nations . Feeling assured as I do that no country can thrive where life and property are in . se . cure , while I seize on all opportunities which may present themselves for the encouragement of the skill and enterprise of the people , I shall endeavour to suppress the outrages which are unhappily so prevalent in some districts with all the power which the law affords me . I feel confident

      that these views will meet with your approval ; and that in carrying them out I shall have the assistance of all who wish well to their country , whatever may be their religious creed or political opinions .
