NEWS OF THE WEEK.

'hie commission appointing Lords Justices to carry on the Go- vernment of Ireland has been despatched, and Lord Anglesey returns immediately. - The recall of this nobleman has occasioned a vivid excitement .throughout the whole of Ireland. The displays of popular dissa- tisfaction on account of it are not confined to the Catholics. Even • vthe leaders of the Orange party in the Corporation of Dublin, *though they dislike the Marquis's politics, regret his departure for the sake of:their trade, which flourished under him. The Lord Mayor, however, refused to call a public meeting of the inhabitants to address the Marquis and petition the King for his continuance. The Catholic population of the capital had simultaneous meetings on Sunday, in all the churches, to give utterance to their senti- anents. The counties are in motion for a similar purpose.
