The consecration of the Rev. Dr. LAFFAN, as Roman Catholic Archbishop of
Cashel, will take place on the 6th July next at Thurles.
The vacancy in the Roman Catholic See of Cashel, in Ireland, has been at
length declared duly filled up by the nomination long since made by the
Clergy of the Diocess, in favor of the Rev. Doctor LAFFAN. A question was
raised at Rome as to the propriety of sanctioning the principle of Domestic
Nomination in theperson of the Rev. Gentleman. In the discussions upon that
point, the Rev. Dr. RYAN, who was sent out for the purpose, ably sustained
the right of the Clergy to exercise this power, as well as the fitness for
the sacred office of the Learned and Rev. Gentleman whom they elected. It is
said that the Hannoverian Minister at Rome exerted all his influence in
order to get Dr. COLLINS appointed to the See in question.

ROMAN CATHOLICS
Mr. BROUGHAM presented a Petition from many thousand Roman Catholics of
Ireland, which he said would be signed by many thousand more, had time
permitted, complaining of the unequal Laws, and of the unequal
administration of the same, as far as regared the Roman Catholics. The Hon.
Member intimated that he should certainly bring forward his motion on this
subject to-morrow.


The President and Council of the Royal Irish Academy have adjudged the
premium of £50 to the Rev. Richard RYAN, of Rathconnell, in the Diocese of
Meath, ro his Essay on the question, "On the means of rendering the sources
of National Wealth possessed by Ireland most available for the employment of
its population."

MR GREY
A Gentleman of the Medical Profession, has taken up his residence in Galway,
and (as will be seen by advertisement) has volunteered his professional
services gratis, in behalf of the Poor of this Town and neighbourhood. It is
unnecessary for us to say that conduct of this description deserves praise-
the act speaks for itself, and we wish Mr. GREY every success in his
professional career in Galway.

Major D'ARCY, of the 39th Regiment, of a daughter.

DIED
On Monday, the 16th instant, after a tedious and painfull illness, Anthony
ORMSBY, Esq of Ballinamore, county Mayo, late Lieutenant of the North Mayo
Militia. His mourning friends have the only consolation left, after such a
loss, in reflecting that the piety, integrity, and rectitude of his life,
secured him the love and regard of all who could justly value the best
qualities of the human heart.

STEPHENS in Nuns' Island, the Poor will be attended gratis every morning
