Mr. Canning.
DuBT rN, Saturday, Sept. 18. ,'hle o0ceCt of Mr. Caninigi's visit to this coun-ry conti- nues to be a subject of inuch conjectural discussion amcngst the people here. iMost persons disbelieve the assertions of the Londou ministerial papers, that thc Right Hoinourable Gcntlicman's excursion is merely recreative. The general opinion is, that he wishied to obtain thc most accurate in- formation respectin! the actual state of affairs in Ireland whichl was only to be acquired by personal investigation some, however, say that he was induced( to come over for! the purpose of' making arran gem en ts 'for the projectedl mar- riage of his daughter with the Earl of Clanrickard. Jt is very possible that all these motives mnay have combine( in inducinzgthe visit; althouighl the last seems questionable, from the circpmstauce of h)is not procee,ling to Lord| Clanrickard's residence at Portumna ; 6nee no arrange- ment couldt tale place at Dublin, which niaght not with equal facility he elfhcte(d in Lon(lon, or any ether part of Englanld. Thc Earl, wilo has but lately come of' age, is I a nobleman of very ancient fainily, and is described to be a I fline young man of liberal principles, and possessilig an un- embarrassed property amounting to lI;,0001. per annum. The fecling towards iM\r. Caninhg here (with the exception of'that of the Orange party) is rather popular; but bv no means so much so as it would have been, (lid the Cath;lics place greater confidence in his friendship.lhan thev do. Sir Francis Burdett's masterly expos of " the anniual farce" still rings in their ears, and chills that enthusiam whiich the liberal policy of the Foreign Secretary, in other re- spects, was calculated to excite. The Orange party, iow- l ever, have more faithi in the sincer-ity of his professed feel- ings in favour of the Catholics; and cotisequenitly they matifest the most hostile dlisposition towardis him by every meaus in their power, although one of their journrals of this (lay boasted that the Right Honourabl' Secretarv ac- tually (lid thiemn the hotnour, wheln passing their office yes- terday, to laughat them ! You have perceived by the Diblin papers that the Lord Mlayor called a post assembly for the purpose of voting hiim a coimplimentary addlress upoIn h;is appearance in this country, anil that the measuro was op- posecl an( frustratedi by a Afr.Sutton. Tfhere are seine curious factsattending this circuinstance. The Lord 'Mayorprofessed himself extremely anxious to procure this compliment (if it be one) for Mllr. Caniiiig ; and vet, the man by wlhom his purpose was defeated was actually a creature of hiis owti; so far, at least, as being rescued front a state of utter (desti- tutioii throughi the Lord Mlfavor's influrnee, which procured for him, but the otlier day, the office (created for the occa- sion) of supervisor of iletal Main accounts, -with a salary just enabling him to exist. Such is the present ditni- fied leader of the Dublix Corporatioti ; et cX iin.o dhisc e mn7aS. About two o'clock to-day Mr. Canning paid a visit at the Mansion-house, and afterwards at the house of Mr. Dogherty, the member for New Ross, wvho is his relative from thetice he procceded,accompanied hy Lord Howard de AValden, his private secretary, the Lord Mayo-. M.Ir. NTorth, IM. P., Rn(d Ir. oghiertv, i. P., to the Kildare- street School, the Dublin Soclety-hoisc, the Custoi- lhouse. at(i the l'ost-offlce, all of which he insoected, hut not very minutely. As he stepped itnto andi out of'his esariage at each place, several persons pressedl forward to obtain a view of his per:;on, but displayed no fcelitig one tvay or the other, beyond that of mere curiositv. lie is looking in good healths. It was rumoured to-day that he wvou]ld return to England to-miiorrowv, but it was atterwatids stated that lie wvould remainl here some days longer. I From the FrCeeman'eS Jounttal of Mlondav 1 On Saturday Mr. Cannin, cails ino town from the Vice-regal Lodge, an(i accompanied the Ltrd l Mayor to tbe principal buildi:nzs of tile metropahis. which hle ha(l not bebre inspec (d. Thle archi- tectural beauty of the Custom-hiouse and of the Post-office called f(ortlh from the Right Hionourable Gentleman an expression of patti- cular and marked approbation. Ilec did n-lt delay long, however, at either of these public cstablishments, as indeed tihe rc-tine of business there differs little frotn the nmode in which it is con- lucted in similar institutionIs in England. I-lis visit to Kildare- place Association was one, perhaps, of more importance, both fronm the attention which the Riglt Hionourable Secretarv paid t *itas well as from the freqtenlt discussions which it has created in this country and in Parliament. Mlr. North, who m:le his niaidetm sTu-ech in Parliament in (Icfonce of thie principles and practice of thi hIsthu- ion, conductedl him over it, and explained to hint the 5vster nf edu- cation adopted there. itlr. tsnitng exT"re%sed himself in urni,N en warnm approbation of thIe explanations given liv the hon. member for Plympton Erle, and hea)d sevi!ral of the pupils examined lleforc tim, witl whose advanccnient in the cileneitary parts ef &istorv, anl other dep-irtments of learninz, lIe seeme( exceelingiy pLease.I Aiter havinig delayed for some timle at the Institutiom. it was suer- icested to the Right Ilonourable Gentlenian, that it might be tedious tbr him to see the vhole of the estaldishment; to whlich lie replied. that " he was plhaed with Wh:,t lIe had seen, and hoped he might be permitte( to see theh wtolc of it, as the Irstitution was one in whicil he took aparticular iinterest." Tje Right Ilonourable G;trle man accordingly inspected it, aid returnedt highlv gratified with what he had seen at the Instithition), and what he lial been told ahout it. Y'esterdav, after having attended divine service at the Castle Chapel, Mr. Canning diaed with tile Attorney-General at his couni- try seat, 01(1 Conntaught, Bray antd tie intends to devote this da v (Mor.tdav)to a visit to the romanticand beautifully picturesqueviews with whichl the county otf Wieklow abounds. His departure is as ver undetermined. \Ve a-c aware of no political eveiit connected. wtith the deathi of the King of France which should require lis imme- dliate depairture froni this countrv; andt we are not ats yet apr,rehen- sive that it 'will req:tire the presence of thte Right iloAo.irabhe Gen. tlenan in England.
