ANGLO CELT - July 21, 1853 Part one of three We have received the following letter from Dr. M'GAURAN of Cootehill, relative to some mistakes which occurred in our report of his evidence in the case of the Queen v. Rooney, which we published last week. We hope the Doctor will excuse these mistakes as the noise in court prevented us from catching the words exactly as they were spoken : -- TO THE EDITOR OF THE ANGLO-CELT Cootehill, July. MR. EDITOR. - In your Anglo-Celt I am reported as having said that, matter could not exist in contact with brain or envelopes without delirium, is a solecism in pathology. My opinion is quite the contrary ; my meaning and also my expression was, that matter could affect the brain or its covering without causing delirium, was a solecism in pathology. Margolin was a Professor in pathology in Paris. I never mentioned Venice. I gave his authority has having his published lectures in my possession. Mr. Editor - if you think the above statement necessary to vindicate my profession reputation, you would oblige me by inserting the above in your next paper. - Yours, P. M'GAURAN ACCIDENT TO JOHN VEEVERS, Esq., R.M. - We regret to be informed that Mr. Veevers, R.M., (now residing in Bailieborough), met with a serious accident on his return from the assizes of Carrick-on-Shannon (Sharnon?), on Saturday last, by the fracture of one of his arms. The other arm was also severely injured, but we are happy to learn that he is progressing favourably. THE CROPS. - During the last week we have made several strict inquiries relative to the condition of the crops in this locality, and, are happy to learn that, without exception, they are progressing favourably, and promise a most abundant harvest. The potatoe, in particular, is remarkably sound and healthy. None of the numerous complaints which were so prevalent this time last year, concerning its failure, having reached me.

The numerous high distinctions hitherto obtained by its pupils in Trinity College, Dublin, fully attest the efficiency of the system of Education pursued. Vacation will end on the 8th of AUGUST. Reference to the Rev. J. C. Martin, D.D., Ex-Fellow, T.C.D., Rector of Killeshandra, whose sons are at the School ; and to the Rev. F. Saunderson, Rector of Kildallon. The Senior and Junior Classes are entirely distinct. The principal, Mr. DUNBAR, who has had eleven years' experience as a Teacher, and who obtained, in due course, a high Classical Sizarship(sic), Queen's Scholarship, University Scholarship, &c., personally conducts the education of each pupil, and as his number is necessarily limited, he can state, that the system of education, free from the objections made against that in public schools, comprises all the facilities for instruction presented by first-class academies, and by private tuition. Already one hundred and fifteen Pupils, without a single failure, have passed most creditably the examinations in their different Universities and Colleges. Many obtained the highest honours in the University of Dublin. Three Exhibitions, of the annual value of 15£. each, are open to all Pupils, and tenable by those who distinguish themselves at Entrance in the University. Vacancies for two Boarders. The Terms are moderate. The References include those Senior and Junior Fellows of Trinity College Dublin, whose sons and nephews have been, or continue to be, pupils. Detailed prospectuses of the system and programme of study, with particulars of the Exhibitions, and lists of the distinctions gained by pupils, may be had on application. 10, TALBOT-PLACE, DUBLIN.
