Mr. O'Connell paid a visit the other day to Mr. Scott the Dublin Corporation Repealer, accompanied by a deputation of blacksmiths, with an address. Mr. Scott gave a grand breakfast on the occasion. After breakfast, the " Glorious, Pious, and Immortal Memory," were given by nine times nine, O'Connell cheering at the top of his voice ! He said he never drank the toast before, but he was not too old to learn !
The Right Reverend Dr. Burke, Protestant Bishop of Waterford, died at his residence in that city, on Thursday last. He was brother and heir of the Earl of Mayo. The Morning Chronicle says, that Dr. Lloyd, Provost of Trinity College, is to be Bishop of Waterford, and Dr. Barrett Provost of Trinity. Other accounts say that the vacancy will not be filled up—that the number of Irish Bishoprics will be re- duced, as part of the Church Reform in contemplation.
