The only remarkable occurrence we have to record during the last month, is an attack that has been made on the Viceroy of Ireland (the Marquis Wellesley) while he was at the Theatre at Dublin. Some outrageous orangemen, enraged at the liberal policy pursued by the Noble Marquis, for the benefit of that portion of the British empire, not only insulted him by hissing and booting, but threw bottles and rattles with an intent, it is supposed, of killing him. The Privy Council has investigated all the particulars connected with the outrage. This investigation has been carried on under the direction of the Attorney and Solicitor-General; and evidence has been disclosed, it is said, which throws a deeper tinge of desperate maliguity over this horrible affair than was at first imagined possible. The Head Police and Collegestreet offices have also been engaged in the development of this atrocious transaction. Applications had been made, whilst these examinations were pending, to admit the persons held in custody to bail: bail was refused, however, and others were subsequently taken into custody.

The following persons were fully committed, from which it appears that the proceedings have at length assumed a decisive character:

Henry Handwick and George Graham were fully committed by Counsel. lor Gabbett, for having, with divers other persons, feloniously conspired, confederated, and agreed to kill and murder his Excellency Richard Marquis Wellesley, Lord Lieutenant of Ireland.

Mr. James Forbes was apprehended

under a warrant from the Magistrates of the Head Office, and fully committed on the above capital charge.

Matthew Handwick is committed for conspiring to cause a riot, and for actually, with others, having caused one on the night in question.

William Graham and William Brownlow have been apprehended on a warrant, charging them that they did, on the night of the 14th instant, conspire and combine, together with others, to commit a riot, and that they did ac tually commit a riot in the Theatre.

The distress in the county of Galway is now at the greatest height. There are very few gentlemen of even from 2,000l. to 5,0001. per annum (nominally) who can shew their faces out of doors for fear of being arrested.-As to obtaining rents, it is next to an impossibility, as many tenants are really unable to pay, and others take advantage of their not having been paid themselves by the under tenants, and assert their inability, so that those land owners who have to pay the interest of money lent to them, jointures or annuities, are obliged to hide themselves. No price is to be obtained for any article, save whiskey, and those gentlemen, who, twelve months ago, were the most active in preventing the making of it, are now obliged to wink at illicit distillation, in order to procure a few pounds. Government are doing what they can, but nothing effectual is in their power. Provisions are very cheap. A turbot that would dine six people, 2s. 6d. Turkeys are 10d. each. Beef 3d. Mutton 248. per pound.

We trust and believe, that the plan

of holding a Third Assize in the Home District will be attended with such beneficial effects, that it will be extended to every district. There are at present in the Kent County Gol no fewer than ninety-one prisoners for trial, the greater number of whom would, but for this assize, have to lie in gaol three months longer before they could be brought to trial. A man committed in August last might have had to lie in gaol upwards of seven months, and at the expiration of that period be acquitted by a Jury of his country of the charge laid against him. The general good must occasion some individual inconvenience, but it is in every point of view, desirable to shorten the period of imprisonment before trial as much as possible.

The King's Theatre will open on the 4th of January, with Rosini's Opera of Il Tancredi, in which Madame Borgondio makes her first appearance in this country. The opera has been already twice rehearsed. It was first intended to commence the season with Manager has, on second consideration, Mozart's La Clemenza di Tito, but the thought it more expedient to give Madame Borgondio the earliest opportunity of making her debut before a British public. Among the improvements made at the King's Theatre during the recess is that of a new stage.

The magnificent edifice now building in Piccadilly, for Mr. Alexander and furnished by Lady-day next. Bearing, is expected to be finished
