The Limerick Chronicle states that industrious and enter- j prising Scotch farmers are extending their 1 influence in the south and west of Ireland. The Gal way Mercury, speaking of the wholesale emigration of the peasantry from 1 that country, remarks that tiie parties who j left within the first two years are now send- ! ing home in small sums "an amount of mo ney beyond all former example." The selection of Dr. Cullen as the succes- j sor of Dr. Murray, by the priests of Dublin, : and the certainty that their choice will be but too readily ratified by the Vatican, has given great offence to the moderate Roman Catholic Laity. A vast influx of English visitors to Ireland is anticipated this summer, consequently on greatly increased facilities of traffic lacing af- j forded" by arrangements which have been , completed by the Great Southern and West- j ern, and tiie Chester and Holyhead coinpa- j liies.

It is stated that General Tasclier de la I'a gorie, formerly aid-de-camp to Prince Eugene ' Beauharnais and who has been residing at ' .Munich, is shortly to be expected at Paris, in ' order to assume the functions of Senator, to which he is to be named. The Commander-in-chief of the garrison of Paris has published an order of the day, re- I Tuning the soldiers of the Jewish faith from j all military service during eight days, on the : occasion of the solemnity of Easter, in order that they may attend to their religious duties. !

STORM IN ILLINOIS—LOS'OI I.IFL.—A singu lar storm of wind swept over Duueklecs Grove, 18 miles from Chicago, on the 12th inst. Its movement was rotary, the track very narrow, and unaccompanied by thunder, lightning or lain. The house and barn of Mr. Ebenezer Duncklee, and also ti.e barn of one of his neigh bors, were in the track of the storm, and were left shapeless heaps of ruins. In Mr. Dunck- Jce's house eighteen persons were assembled. The house was lifted several feet (rotn its foun dation, and was crushed in its (all. Mr. Dunck lee was killed instantly. A son-in-law had his foot broken,and was otherwise seriously injured The remainder escaped with only slight confu sions.

REPUDIATION. —The Cincinnati City Council have refused to pay the bill of Kossuth's ex j per.ses while he was at the Burnet House in that i city. It is stated that in the town of West Newbury, Mass., there were raised and put up, last year, of marketable apples, fourteen thousand anJ nine barrels, worth about §28,000. The Clarion Register contains about six oolumns of Sheriff's Salts to take place at the Court House in that borough on the Ist of May i next. Bayard Taylor,, in one of his letters to ihe Tribune, says the Turkish name of America is Venice Dnonea. [This sounds very much like j Yankce-Doodledom, but is said to be, in reality, the Turkish for "New World."] James Craven, aged 60, the author of several works on heraldry, died recently iu a filthy lodg ing in Whitechapel, England, where he" lived i with an aged lunatic. He had money sufficient to maintain himself in comfort. STOLE V HOUSE. —Some "adroit thieves" carried oil a house "bodily" from Sport Hill, Calaveras county, one day last week. The di mensions ot the house were twenty by forty leet. Ibis is the loftiest case of " shop-lifting" we ever heard of.— .llta California. A Whale, about fifty feet in length, was seen close to the wharf at Fall River, by Captain Child, of the Canonicus, 011 Monday. He was heading, when iast seen, up Taunton River. It is supposed that he has followed the shad and ale-wives. The Reefs at Key West abound in sponges, and about >50.000 worth is collected and ship ped yearly, paying from forty to fifty dollars per month to each hand engaged. These sponges are cleansed, dried, packed, pressed, and ship ped to New York, and then sold to the French, mostly, to make felt fur hats. A letter from Heidleberg (Grand Duchy of Baden) announces tne death in that town of an old soldier named Fein, at the advanced age of 115 years. He took his part in all the cam paigns of the seven years' war, and in 1789, un der Marshal Jaudoti, was present at the assault of Belgrade. The Grand Duke has for many years allowed a pension to this veteran. A locomotive on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, when near Harper's Ferry, exploded its boiler 011 Sunday morning, instantly killing Thomas McMakin. a superintendent on the j road, and fatally injuring the engineer. The fireman, and several others connected with the train, were also severely scalded, The cause of this explosion is not known. The barque Wm. Watson, arrived at San Fiancisco from Hong lvong, China, brought the intelligence of a most disastrous conflagration there on the 2Gth December, which destroyed nearly the whole city. Hundreds of lives, it is said, were lost; and every newspaper office was destroyed. The public market was destroyed, and much suffering was the result. The total loss was put at §4,000,000. THE CAIUTOL AGAIN ON FHIP..—A fire broke out in the Deputy Clerk's Room of the L. S. Supreme Court at Washington, on Tuesday of last week, which destroyed a desk and Ihe min utes of the last term of Court, it was fortu nately discovered soon enough to extinguish it ' without much damage. The fire has been as certained to have arisen from the ignition of a box of matches left carelessly in the desk. FRUIT. —The southern Ohio and Indiana pa- ' pers report the most of the fruit—cherries, j peaches, apples and pears, which had escaped 1 the extreme cold of the past winter—to be ! destroyed by the late frosts. The Brookviile ; ' la.) Advertiser says the loss is incalculable, and the present impression is that §500,001), or fifteen years of constant horticultural applica tion, will not bring back our orchards to what they were last summer. The palace of Rhcinardsbrunn, the favorite residence of the Duke of Saxe Coburg Gotha, brother ol his Royal Highness Prince Albert, was burned to the ground on the night of the ! nth. The edifice was situated in one of the most charming -jots of the Thuringian forest, and occupied the site of an ancient monastery It was not long since built, at great cost, in the I old German style, and contained treasures of art ami antiquity of untold value. The disaster | was purely accidental. A young lady of Albany, recently received from a relative in California, in a letter, a gold watch and two gold chains. The package did not weigh an ounce and a half. The watch is a perfect gem. It is a Geneva lever, full jewled, is not much larger than a dime, and weeps admirable lime. One ol the chains was of gold and agate, very beautiful, and the other was of the finest California gold, and about eighteen inches in length. Such a letter is worth the postage, at least. Lola Montez lately paid a visit to the. public | schools of Boston, and it is said made a short ad dress to the scholars. Lola has also had a quiet interview with several of the editors ol the Boston papers, to whom, it is said, she expres sed a decided [.reference to Mr. Buchanan, for the Presidency, and a fervent regret that she | w 'll not be qualified to record a vote in his fa vor. \\ ith such an endorsement, Mr. Buchan an will unquestionably run ahead of all com- I pctitors.

INTERESTING DOCUMENTS.— M. Kossuth is ap pointing his agents to sell his Hungarian Bonds, mid 111 Pitlsbuigh he has selected a ladv. The business it would seem is reduced to one of method, as Mrs. Jane R. Eliot announces b. r acceptance of the agency and place of busi ness. COMMISSION. L appoint Mrs. Jane R.
