Zoing very significant notice has appearec since my last in the colu:nns of the O'Connell press af this city, and is now going the rounds of all the Provincial paper, that for the edification of the lieges throughout the Provinces, re-echo all mat- ters in anyy reluting to this “illustrious” in dividual. Y a state of society does it be- speak. What a commentary on the dignified bear- ing and chivalry of the great O’Conngll, and withal, what an exposition of the confiding good nature, and gullibility of my fellow countrymen who have heretofore largely, and efficiently contributed to the support ef this egregious, and stall fed mauntebank, and sustained him in the outrage, and mischief, with which of late years he has continued to afflict his unfortunate country. But the notice is porten- peaks a sad fulling off in the ranks of who are beginning, at length, to re- tious, and be his supporte: cognise the superficial covering that veils the mo- tives of his inward man, and the vile uses to which he converts his popularity,—his exalted and asserted love of count The there has been a sensible falling off of lat contributions of the people ; nor would the amount of the weekly impost, that finds its way into the coffers of the “Royal Repeal proach to anything near its present limit, except for the efforts of the Roman Catholic Priesthood, whose influence overithe minds of a grea the middle and lower classes of society is unbounder O'Connell knows this well, and with the adroit cun- ning of an old fox, iscontinually bespattering them with the most fulsome adulation.

It was however hinted by some knowing one among the party that your Na- tive citizens were not made of quite such maleable stuff, or so easily imposed upon as poor Pat, and that to effectually come at your purse string, it would be necessary to try some more persuasive means. Some betterargument,than the transmistion of a set of blarnied resolutions—mere trash! which | ve is the only value that have heretofore ved for your very liberal ¢ tributions.

O'Conne'! highly ee of the plan, which promises, with other advantages, to relieve him from the charge to which he has beea for along while subject, of sup- porting ‘cue of Ireland's best song,” at his Sole and individual cost. ‘Tom is himsell in extacies.

Mr. Roebuck, the ultra mem- vr the city of Bath, who has directly impeached he ‘presentation of several of the English boroughs, ine obtained a special committee to investigate the ibaces that he haces to have taken place ; he has ded in passing a bill of indemnity through Parliament, for such witnesses, themselves guilty of bribery, or otherwise accessory to the erime in others, whom he may choose to examine. But » exertions, howewr laudable in themselves, 1 lead to nothing. Both whig, as well as tory are interested in shutting out the trath from the pub- lie, and preserving a system by which both part aave profitted in their turn, “Some change in the aw,it is expected, will take place to appease thelna- tion, with the ostensible object of checking this spread demoralization, but it will fall short of such purpose, so long as the constituency are re- stricted by property qualifications to their preseut limit, ‘and ih at viva voce instead of secret voting, torms a part of our system. To this change we. must even in the end come, adopting your mode of the ballot box, but with those improvements in its details or working, of which you are aware, from your every-day practice, it is still susceptible. Our committees offer no protection from the abuses of which we complain, or the frequent undue returns of members to serve in Parliament which are occa- sioned thereby. Besides, the expenses of contest- e, that the ‘machinery of our re- | | ing a seat before any of these committees isso very | onerous, the result so very doubtful, being frequently determined accsrding to the political bias of a ma- | jority of its members, apart from the consideration on whichever side justice may preponderate, that but few willincur the hazard, or become involved in the expense. Some idea may be inferred of the risk and outlay trom the fact, of one solitary contested vote, disputed before one of the committees that have just closed their labors, having cost the con- tendin® parties something beyond a sum of £500 sterlin .. So much for modern patriotism—so much for iad: vidual ambition—so much for the purity of lection, and our present happy representative sys- tem. Our foreign relations, with which immediately concerned, claim a few remarks. They are not, I am sorry to say, in that ealm and settled state of peace and good understanding that* would relieve us from apprehension of future diffi- culty. ‘The last account ers the French cupital haz notified the very unexpected, and changed resolu- tion of the two Princes De Joinville and Mue D’- Aurnale to visit England, which may be considered as an offering made to public opinion in France, un- der its present excitement against this country alleged precarious state of health of the King, their, Father, is, confidently stated as a further cause of their unwillingness to leave France at this juncture, and wiiei is generally believed to be the case, notwith ‘anding the fate contradictions of the Paris jowvnals, which represent his ma in the presi enjoyment of excellent health. It is well if it were so, and that the rm- mors of a confirmed dropsy on the chest, with which his Majesty is. supposed to be afflicted, were merely ideal; for with his death will end the hopes of the peace party, and thus re- straints upon the conduct, and anti-English spirits of of our neighbors, of the existence of which we continue to have such frequent evidence, who are as yet thirsting to atone for, and wipe off, the stain of Waterloo and their double conquest ; whilst any pretext will suffice, in the war phrenzy, to which these people are so subject asa causas belli, of which they may take advantage. The successful opposition in the French Chambers to any immedi- ate reduction in their naval force, has had some re- ference tothe present .ubsisting diflerences between this country and your government, in which they, areca to be particu interested. The Duke of Orleans, whose talents are of a very secondary rate, will have quite enough to do on succeeding to his father’s position, and will find himself compelled to ield to the war mania of his subjects, or else to ab- ‘ate. ‘The times are indeed portentious, while a eat deal of the future chances of peace or war, will depend upon the success of the deplomatic ar- rangments going onat your side, in which I sincere- ly hope that the prognostications in which J ventur- ‘d in a former letter, may not be realized, but that my Lord Ashburton, instead of diverting the atten- tion of your government from the threatning ‘posi- tion of both countries, may direct his energies to the accomplishment of asatistactory and early ad- justment of existing differences alike honorable to both nations, ince my last, important despatches have arrived fro India, detailing the successful operations with ve’ trifling loss, of the British troops in Affaghanis- 21, the foreing of the Khyber pass, heretofore con- »d as next to impessible, and important victory of General Sale at Jellalabad, atoning to some ex- tent, for the late disasters at Cabool,which it issome consolation to believe were of a nature that ean never recur again, with these the happy riddance by poison, is “us said, of our quondam Pend and treacherous ally SchaSoojah in some degree clouded by the sur- render of Ghnznee, which was imprudently left gar- ‘ou are more at risoned by only one Sepoy regiment, with inade juate provisions and water, which compelled their sapitulating, There have been sad blunders com- mitted, or rather the most culpable neglect attribut- ed to our military and political agents in this di tant quarter, and which has been attended by such severe disaster and loss of life. A thorough inves- tigation is about to take place amongst our officials —Court Martial and enquiry are directed to be held vy the Governor General on the several parties who may be in the least implicated. At the last ac- sounts his Excellency was at Benares, having re- moved the seat of goyernmeut from Calcutta to this latter city, from which it is 460 miles distant, to be nearer the military operations, that are intended to be now pushed forward with great vigor. Hong Kong, Amoy and Chusan, in China, are de- clared by our Plenipotentiary are ‘to be from hence- forth free ports; the two former to continue - oendent of the issue of the present war, as British possessions. Sir Henry Pottinger was at lust ac- counts at Hong Kong, waiting the arrival of rein- foeen ts sow on their way, tomake a dash upon Pekin.

His Jord. s raised to the peerage by theMelbourne in. 1841, was born in 1776, and consequent- } th year. He was chairman of the finance committee in 1828, and filled the post of Secretary of Warin 1881. In April 1885 he was appointed Paymaster General to the forces and Treasurer of he Ordnance of the Navy, which offices he con- tioned to hold until June 1841. His Lordship. was author of a well known work on financial reform, and of agreat number of pamphlets on currency and banking ; also a work upon roads and road mak- ing. He was a descendant of Parnell, Archdeacon of Clogher, author of the admired poem of “ The Hermit.” The state of this country hassomewhat improved since my last letter; the cases of pradeal outrage thongh jnite as numerous, are not characterised by any very great atrocity. An additional police for has been ‘lespatched by the government to those di tricts where good order and the laws are the least respected. The crops look tolerably well, whilst the price of all agricultural produce has considera- bly advanced in our markets. The season has been rather dry «dl parching, which, 1 also regret to state, has caused much sickness amongst the popu- lations F. W. Addresses of congratulation are pouring in from all parts of the country, the repetition ef the many presented on a late similar occasion to HerMajesty, who, it were particularly fortunate, was not at the time aware of the attempt made upon her life, as report bespeaks her to be again in an interesting situation, in which any sudden alarm or fright might be of evil consequences. Navat. Preravations Fon Wanr.--The de- ion of France to build seventy-three steam trigatesabove the size of those in the British navy, has given our government great concern, as the country is not in a state to build an equal number of the same class to cope with them. Accordingly, the Admiralty assembled the master-shipwrights at Woolwich Dockyard, and formed a committee of the royal builders to devise the best means to pro- tect our line-of-battle ships from the certain destru tion which onr enemies intended by their formid- able preparations to visit them with.” All the large ships building at the royal dock-yards were stopped sroceeding with for some time-—the Albion, Abone ir, Exmonth, Princess Royal, Hannibal, and Vic- torin—until a plan should be determined upon to make them adequate to repulse the steam-ships of the French and American navies. It has therefore been determined upon to fortify their bows and stevns with long 68Ib. guns, to Keep them at a re- table distance, and which will enable our large sships to approach the harbors and towns on the eoust of America or France, and destroy them at pleasure, without the power of our enemies’ batte- ry-cannon being able to injure them, as our ships Willbe able to Keep out of their reach, Our ste ships ave all to be fitted forthwith with long 6S8ib, guns, and the experiments going forward at Wool- wich are intended to make them impregnable in running op the harbors of brother Jonathan and those of our friends on the opposite side of the English Channel.

This port, as well as Mazatlan, has been for the | last year very little frequented, in consequence of the rigid measures adopted by the government of Mexico, for the payment of the duties; it having | been customary heretofore to enter cargoes by pay- | ing from one-third to one-half the duties: conse- quently the holders of goods introduced on those terms, can undersell those who import in the pre- sent state of the times. About fifteen vessels have been lying off and on at Mazatlan, waiting tor some | change in their favor ; and our last advices state that | orders had come on from Mexico to admit them at two-thirds the duties established by the tariff. This | done in order to meet the great demands upon the } asury for the proposed expedition against Texas. e also expect Urrea will adopt similar measures in our favor on his arrival.

Shocking Attempt at Rape In Mobile, (Correspondence of the Herald.] Mose, June 30, 1842 8.

It is the duty of all about twelve years of age, daughter of Mr. Alex Hollinger, one of our most respectable citizens, who resides for the summer season about sixty miles from Mobile, It appears that Miss H. was a guest at Mr. Garrett’s house, and had been there for about a week ; the girl desired a wish to go home, (she lived about seven miles from Garrett’s house) when Garrett said he would go with her; when he got her out in the woods, he made an attempt, but whe- ther he succeeded or not, is not yet known, but her clothes were all torn. When she got home she told her father, who mounted his horse with a brace of pistols, and when he reached his house found him in bed. He pointed his pistol at him, but his wife threw it aside, and he got away from him, and chased him three days in the woods, but could not catch him. Hismother- in-law went with her carriage and brought him and his wife from the woods. It is not known what will be done yet. I'll write again.

The musicians, nine in number, composed a most excellent band and during the evening played the most delightful and enchanting cotillons, waltzes and galops, at least, so it seemed to those who were engaged in dancing, for the lightneas and airy move- ments of the ladies i never before saw displayed to so much advanta’s The French Consul was the prima; managed ai irs well. T observed a number of gentlemen with « white ribbon in the coat, whom I took for managers, but cannot give you names, being unacquainted with them. I observed that the most lovely ones present were the young married ladies, who are in the majority at this place. Mrs. M. looked exceedingly well; M in black, which becomes her vo well, was lovely.

They arrive with plenty of money and ‘ responsibilities,” taking their way for the west and southern counties, Most are far- mers, well off in the world, with wives and daugh- ters. We need such people among us. England may emigrate and set her isle in our far west. Even there, large as her population is, she would be lost in our prairies, People have made up their minds that a fortune is not to be made in a single year, so we are all going to return to the good old times of 1800, and work The last twenty years has been passed in dreams.— Speculations, town lots, water privileges, U. States bank stock, &c., have occupied every mind. glbany is remarkable for one thing, the seln=ir ness and parsimony of our wealthy inhabitants. — ‘There are honorable exceptions, but most of then, are too afraid to venture farther than the end o their nose. There is immense wealth among oui old Dutch families, and great good could be done by using it judiciously ; but they, good souls, prefer stocks and bonds to loaning it. to needy persons, who thus would not only benefit the city but their own selves. Thus we go; ‘penny wise, pound foolish.” x We have a Common Council surpassing yours in every respect. Being equally divided, they rais« quite a breeze, and when an unruly member is de- sirous of avoiding a division, he raises a window and jumps out, to the great satisfaction of himseli and the party in the majority, as Col.

Justice L— also deserve: the thanks of every honest man and good citizen fo1 his endeavor to suppress vice in its various shapes. _ Perhaps you New Yorkers don’tknow what pretty girls we have here. Albany ever has been noted for it. We have a mineral spring as good, if not bette: than even Saratoga. Our Museum opens wit! great attraction every evening. ., This is a hard world, but Col. Greene says h thinks very few willget out of it alive, and we hav: c Cpe citizens to make the best of a bad bargain, and all that it left for usis to de our best. The works at the termination of Albany and West Stockbridge Railroad are attracting observa- tion. They have purchased a portion of Van Rens- selaer’s Island, and intend raising a ane of twenty acres, some fifteen or twenty feet above the river It will be an immense job, and cost half a million A canal is to be cut through the island, running by the side of an immense warehouse, which we sup pose will hold all the produce the Erie canal can fetch along—letting the valeae ef New, York trust tc some other resource. A splendid bridge is being built across the creek on the opposite side of the island. 1tis to be a single arch.

Ho gradually ascended betw. forty and fifty rounds and was within eight or ten feet of reaching his destined spot. By this time he evidently be- came much fatigued and held on with great difficu! ‘The officers in the building and numerous passers by in the street looked on with deep interest, expecting every moment that the poor dog would tumble from his lofty height and be dashed to pieces. To return by the way he hatascended was impossible, As if sensible of his dan- | # situation he seemingly gathered up all his remain- | € strength for a last desperate effort to save himself, anc to the astonishment of the lookers on, leaped through the | rounds of the ladder tow: window in the second story | of the building, which was at a distance of about twelve | feet from him. The dog, being somewhat above the win- dow, jumped at a ged descending angle, which ena- bled him to catch with his fore fect the sill, when a gen- tleman, who was standing at the window watching his movements, seized him by the neck and rescued him from his impending fate.—Nat.

Washington. [Correspondence of the Herald.) Wasuinatox, 3 o'clock, July 8, 1842. In the Senate, Mr. Woodbury’s Revenue Bills vere laid upon the table, upon the score of uncon- titutionality. The Bill to incorporate the National Institution, with the improved name of the National Institute, vassed the Senate. The Senate was, it was understood, about to go into Executive Session. The House opened with a refreshing prayer from the Reverend Mr. Maffit, his second appearance for some menths here in that character. Mr. Muffit has too many of the elements of an itinerant preach- or for any fixed residence, because his “ set phrases of speech” are apt to grow stale by custom. He was a lion of the first grandeur before he growled for a season in the capitol ; but ne feels that his reputa- tion demands a trequent change of place; and,there- fore, of late, makes his visits, like those of other an- gels, ‘few and far between. Mr. Cowper, of Georgia, made an ineffectual ef- fort to offer a resolution, when, on motion of Mr. Fillmore, of New York, the house resolved itself in- to committee of the whole on the State of the Union, Mr. Me.Kennan, of Pennsylvania, in the chair, on the Revenue Bill.

It has been so almost every day for a week past or more. The consequences to the farmer, who has much ofgrass and grain cut, is of the most se- rious character. A black fellow, called Jim Riley, cut his throat in Al- lerman Hoffner’s office, a few nights since, but not so as to prove fatal. He was under commitment as a disorderly vagrant at the time. Between 1 and 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon the cor: tice extending along, the caves of a four story building on Eleventh street, below Walnut, gave way, and precipi. tated a young man, named Samuel Wigfall, who was upon it at the time, tothe ground. In his fall he struck upon a small tree standing in front of the house, seized a limb, which was broken by his weight, and fell to the earth, from whence he was taken by his fellow workmen, ina state of insensi‘ility, his hip 2nd jawbones fractured, and his body mangled in the most enocking manner, to the Hospital, where he died in about an hour and a half after. 34 years of age, was a young man of ex- emplery character, and has left a wife and four children to mourn his untimely fate. He wasa carpenter, Francis Seymour Morse, last evening about six o’clock, committed suicide by le he 9 himeelf with a silk hand- kerchief to a rack in the loft of the Venitian Blind Manu- factory of Mrs. Freeman, in Second street, between Spruce and Dock streets. He was discovered by ayoung man at work in the establishment, lying upon the floor of the loft, with his head against the rack and doub!ed upon his shoulder ; it appearing that the handkerchief by which ispended himself had broke, and suffered him to fall in this position. A physician was immediately called, and the proper restoratives applied, but without effect, as a dis- location had taken place. No possible cause could be assigned for the rash act, as the young man appeared, unto the moment of commi to have been cheerful and happy. ner’s jury united in testifying that not the slightest traces of insanity,or even of amorbid melancholy disposition, could at my time be discovered, He wasan apprentice to the late Mr. Freeman, whose cecease in the same manner we were called upon to record a short time since.

He is a nephew, by marriage, to Mrs. Freeman, about twenty years of age, and had continued to work in her establishment after the decease of his late master. ‘The stables of Mr. Craig, in Raspberry Alley, were last night destroyed by fire.

Shestated that sho was deceived and be- trayed to her ruin by a promise of marriage, and showed 4 letter upon which the based the vain hope that the mur- derer of her peace would yet marry her. But this hope is one of other evidences that her guilt and its conse- juences had affected her reason. It is altogether probable that her infant was born dead. 1 there was no ev! dence to the contrary, and the investigation was defeated by her escape.—Nashvilie Union. =7enaG Progress of the Medical Revolution, (From the Boston Daily Mail.)
