The Differences Tliat Have Existed For S...
The differences tliat have existed for some time between a majority of the London Wardens and the Association has assumed an appearance likely to be detrimental to Cbe agitation in London . A few months ago the association struck off the list of wardens—Messrs . Dunn , Roche , end O'Malley at the instigation of the Bev . Mr . Moore of \ fapping : the right of so doing having been vested in the wardens in Wardenmote assembled . This led to a remonstrance being sent to the association , for their striking off men , as wardens , on a one sided statement . The association refused to eater into an investigation Of the ofiair ; and Hr . Bay , tbe TKtlfil Secretary , WUS SCUt OVCr ' . but he on his arrival would not listen to the statement of the expelled wardens , Mr . Ray finding that twothirds of the wardens would not be coerced , and that they demanded justice at the hands of the association . The
only answer was , fhefallowing imperious document from « he" LiberatorJ , 'issued to the wardens : — "To T . M . Bay Esq . Mr . Ray is distinctly to understand that the association trill abide by its decision respecting the llepeal Wardens of London , and will not listen to any further discussion on the subject . We utterly reject the cooperation of every person who will not or does not submit cheerfully to our decision ; every such person ceases to he a . member , and ire hare nothing farther to do with Sim ; he is to us as an utter stranger . The thing called o . Wardmote is immediately to be totally dissolved . Mr . Say is to proceed at once to make new and distinct arrangements respecting such Itepealers as continue members of the association . He is to make Such rules and regulations as be deems necessary , so as to exclude dissension and strife , and to carry out the intentions and final determination of the association . " Dasih . O'Cossnx , M . P . "
This tvaa carried out to the letter ; and about twofhirds of the wardens instantly resigned . The "Itepeal Moremenfis at a stand . The rent from London has dwindled down from £ 90 to £ 10 per week , and is getting *• beautifully less . " On Sunday a meeting was held at the Sun Tavern , London-waU , Mr . Cooney in . the chair , condemning the arbitrary conduct of the association in closing the Wardenmote , so as to stifle the public feeling cf the wardens , which meeting was adjourned to Monday evening , to be held at the Temperance Hall , Rose-street , Solio . The adjourned meeting was crowded to
suffocation . Mr . Ray ' s speech at the Dublin Association on the Monday previous , referring to His late mission to London , TOS read , and denounced by the meeting as being untrue Sirom beginning to end . The speech of the " Liberator " on the same subject was roughly bandied- ; one of the speakers saying , that if he knew nothing of the affair , it said very little for his wisdom as a lawyer ; and , that if lie was aware of the facts , it said very little ofhimasa politician . A committee was formed to get up a public demonstration respecting the conduct of the association towards the London Wardens . Resolutions were then passed , pledging the meeting sot to desist seeking for the restoration of the wardens so snjustly struck off . The public demonstration will be held in a few days , and the whole of the public press is to lie invited .

She returned , and was received by her mother , and a short time back

Her mother is in possession of some trifling property , and it is supposed that the prisoner had told her vagrant companions of this circumstance , and that they had persuaded her to poison her parent for the purpose of obtaining possesuon of it , for it was proved that she went to Mr . Tyron ' sshop in company with a woman , and purchased a pennyworth of arsenic The prisoner mixed the poison with some tea , of which her mother partook ; but upon the latter being taken 31 , and z surgeon called in , the p risoner made such disclosures as led to her being taken into custody .

Southern Circuit. Yoke, Jixt 11.—Highway...
SOUTHERN CIRCUIT . Yoke , Jixt 11 . —Highway Robbery . — Robert White , aged 31 , was arraigned for robbery on the highway , and with accompanying violence . James Aekroyd , a stonemason , of Roundv , near Leeds , deposed that on the 2 nd of January last he was at tllC Rodney , Leeds , which lie left at nine o ' clock in the evening . On his way home he saw a man behind Mm in the streets of Leeds . He recognised tlie person who followed him by his person . The prisoner was that man . He had then large black whiskers , whieh he had since shaved off ( the prisoner ' s hair was sandy coloured ) . He passed the prisoner , and soea after the prisoner overtook him , and said , " It ' s a very cold night . " They walked on together for a full mile , occasionally conversing . He had remarked
the prisoner ' s features as they passed under a lamp when he first passed . He felt a blow given to him which left him stunned on the ground . By the blow his face was cat upon the road . The prisoner then turned him over , jerked out a leather purse , containing seven sovereigns and some silver , also a silk handkerchief . He gave information to the police , and on Sunday , the 23 rd of February , he saw him in custody at the police-office . He instantly knew him when brought out , and challenged him as the man who robbed him . lie made no reply . George Hall , a policeman , deposed that h & locked up GaskUl , a man taken up for drunkenness , in the same cell with the prisoner . He listened to part of a conversation , in which the drunken man assured the prisoner that he would get witnesses to prove that Aekroyd had
admitted to them that he was so drunk that he did not know who robbed him . Upon thatassurance , he heard White say , " Only stick to that , and it will do . " These words he heard through the crack of the door . The learned Judge remarked that the course taken by the authorities as to caves dropping in the ceil was not in accordance with the genius of our constitution . Still if the particular words did fairly apply in their opinion to this felony tho evidence must 1 » received , and the jury must take it into their consideration . The jury pronounced , after a short consultation , a verdict of Guilty . The prisoner was removed . There was a considerable sensation occasioned in favour of the criminal in this case , in consequence of his having been convicted , it is now believed nnuropcrly , on the Sth of last March of a robberv with , violence .
\ ork , Jcrr 14—Highway RonnBttY . —Luke Bentley , aged 25 , and Timothy Booth , aged 19 , were charged with highway robbery and stealing , accompanied by personal violence , from the prosecutor , John Shackleton , five half-crowns , six shillings , and sixpence , at Clayton , in the West Riding . —John Shackleton , a weaver , at Bradford , said he went on the 1 st of . May to a shooting match at Allerton . He stayed there that day , and until twelve o clock the next night , when he set out to return home . He took across the fields . Saw three men , of whom Bentiey , the prisoner , was one , at a stile . It was rather dark , and the witness was rather fresh in liquor . He remarked , however , Bentley ' s countenance . One of them , Milton , he knew personally , and he said to him , " Milton , are you going to
Clayton ? " He said nothing in reply , but avoided the witness ' s eye , and hung down his head . Witness did not like this , so he went out of the path over into another field ; there he stood to hear if they followed . Heard them , and then again he took out of the footpath and ran till exhausted . Turning round he saw Bentiey ne » him , who hit him on the temple , and whilst down struck him on the face and head , placing his knees on his body . Another came up , and then Bentiey put his hand on the prosecutor ' s eyes . Another took all the money he had out of his pocket , six half-crowns and six shillings , leaving him but sixpence to gethome with . Upon getting on his legs he found his eyes flashing , and so sore that he could not well seeoutof them . He went off for aconstable , described who had robbed him , and they went in pursuit . ThejuryTound the prisoners Guilty . —Sentence
deferred . HOME CIRCUIT . Hertfosb , Jolt 12 . —Djuuso Bractm . —Solomon Shadbolt , 47 ; George Shadbolt , 25 ; Benjamin Shadbolt , 29 , andJonathanShadbolt , 20 , all described as labourers , were indicted for a burglary of a very daring character , in the dwelling-house of Priscilla Blonde )! , at the parish of Little Wymondley . Tho prosecutrix deposed that she kept a general * shop in the above village , and on the lligllt of tllC 3 rd Of t eWuaiy she went tobed , leaving her heuse properly secured . In the coarse of tho night she was awoke by hearing the footsteps of men over her head in an upstairs room , and very soon afterwards she saw the handle of her bed-room door turned twice , but no further attempt was made to gain admittance . She
was too much frightened to give any alarm , and the next morning , on her going down stairs , she discovered that the house had been ransacked , and a large quantity of property , consisting of wearing apparel , flannel , calico , tea , < fce ., removed . Two inspectors of the Herts constabulary , named Good and Bankes , were then examined , and it appeared that in the beginning of April they searched the cottages of the prisoners Solomon , Benjamin , and George , at Burnuam-grecn , about eight miles from the residence of the prosecutrix , and they there found all the articles they had produced , together with a chisel and a centre-bit that corresponded in size with the marks upon the door of the prosecutor ' s house . The other orisoner , Jonathan , was apprehended in London , and at his lodging some more of the stolen property was
discovered . It also was proved that while the prisoners Benjamin and George were in the custody of the police , one of them said to the other , "I suppose we shall be transported for this . " To which the reply was , "I suppose we shall , but If we had not been at home that night the should have had a job to catch us . " The prosecutrix , of course , from the nature of tho articles stolen , was unable to identify them positively , hut it was rather singular that the prisoners having carelessly thrown about the tickets with the prices that had been attached to many of them , she was enabled to identify them positively , from their having her handwriting upon them . The iury found all the prisoners Guilty , and Mr . justice Coleridge sentenced Solomoa Shadbolt to be transported for twenty , and the others for fifteen
years . Chelmsford , Jew 15 . —IxcexdukiSu axd Ixsaxity . —Samuel Reed , io , was placed at the bar to plead to an indictment , charging him with feloniously setting fire to a stack of beans and a stack of straw , the property of William Ridley , at High Ongar . When the prisoner came into the dock he gazed wildly round him , and looking up in the gallery - where a number of ladies \ rcrc sitting , he exclaimed , " Ah , there they are ; I see them , the angels . I do love them . " He then made a low bow to his
lordship , and burst into a loud laugh . His conduct altogether betokened insanity . Chief Justice Tindal inquired whether the prisoner was in a sane state of mind , or whether his conduct was assumed ? Air . Neale , the governor cf Springfield gaol , said the prisoner had been under his charge since March , and he had opportunities of observing his conduct since that period , and in his opinion he was really insane . The jury were then sworn to decide whether the prisoner was in a fit state of mind to plead , and upon hearing the evidence of the surgeon , they found that he was not , and he was accordingly remanded until the next
assizes . ClIEtMSFORD , JCIT 16 . — "A KlCE GlRt . "Bnowx v . Brewer . —This was an action brought by Mary Brown to recover damages from the defendant , William Brewer , for the breach of his promise to marry her . Serjeant Channcll stated the case , and said the parties in this action were persons in a humble condition of life , and the plaintiff sought compensation for a grievous injur } ' that she had sustained at the hands of the defendant , by his breaking a solemn promise he had made to marry her . The plaintiff was the daughter of a becrehop-keeper , near Braiutrce , and the defendant had formerly been a footman and groom , but by the death of a relative he had come into the possession of a considerable sum of money . It mig ht be as well for hiin to state that the plaintiff was forty-four years old , and he believed
the defendant was not move than thirty-three ; but he was pcrfectlyaware of this disparity between their ages at the time he promised to . many her , and after going so fer as to obtain a licence , fix nj « ra the wedding-day , and have all the dresses aniTjtlie weMing dinner provided , he , without any cause jwhatevcr , refused to fulfil his promise , and the defendant , therefore , by the advice of her friends , was compelled to adopt the present proceeding . The Rev . Mr . Scale , the minister and surrogate of the parish of Braintrcc , deposed that lie was ac-< reaiutcd with tho parties , and remembered the defendant coming to hini for a licence to be married on the 4 th of March , which was the day he fixed lor the weddimr . On bcimr informed ivhomhc intended to

V ^ was invited to the wedding feast at the plaintift s mother ' s house , and she went there accordingly . A number of guests were invited , and Miss Brown was dressed in her wedding suit , and all the other preparations were made for the wedding . A post chaise was sent by the defendant , and it was waiting at the door to take them to church , but the bridegroom did not make his appearance . Mr .

OXFORD CIRCUIT . Oxford , Jar H—Felonious Assault . —James Watts , aged twenty-two , and William Neale , nineteen , were charged with having , on the 12 th of January last , at Ilethe , in this county , assaulted Henry Tcbby , with intent to do him some grievous bodily harm . It appeared that on the night of the 22 th of January last , the prosecutor , who is one of the gamekeepers of Mr . Rousby , who resides at Cottcsford , was out on some errand for his master , and hearing a hare scream , went to the place to see what was the cause . On approaching the spot he saw three men through a gap in the hedge , one of whom was named Jesse Willis . To this man he called out , "Halloo , Willis , what are you doinc
there V when Willis struck hiivt -violently -with a heavy weapon and knocked him down , but not senseless . He rose up , but was most cruelly beaten b y the other two men . He received seven blows which must have been of a very serious description , as the result has been that he lost one eye , and has never since tlie assault been able to hear with his left car or smell with his left nostril . The shower of blows stunned him , and on recovering he found himself alone , and made his way as he best could to the house of the Roman Catholic clergyman of Hcthe , the Kev , Mr , Maguire , on reaching the dosr of which he fell to the ground from weakness or loss of Mood . The brother of Mr . Maguire , who opened the door of the cliapel-housc for him , stated that he was vcrv
faint , and his wounds bleeding , and of an obviously dangerouscharacter , This gentleman most kindly took him in , gave him wine and other stimulants , and sent for medical assistance to Brackley , a village in the neighbourhood . In spite of the dreadful injuries which he had received , the prosecutor was not in any great confusion of mind when he reached the chapel-house , but seems to have aperfect knowledge of what had occurred ; he , however , in speaking of the assault that evening only named Willis , though he mentioned there were three men who struck him , but afterwards-he named tho others . Willis was tried for the offence last year , and transported for fifteen years . Mr . Maguire , the following day , went to the spot whieh the prosecutor had described as the
scene of this most barbarous attack , and there found a large quantity of blood , and also three hedge-stakes , of about a yard long and six inches round . Mr . Jones , the Surgeon , described the wounds , and said that when ho visited the prosecutor at the chapelhouse at Hethe he found the left nasal and cheek bones fractured , the left eye dangerously wounded , and the left side of the head bruised ; and that there appeared as well to be concussion of the brain . Mr . Walesby addressed the jury for the prisoners . Lord Denman summed up , and the jury , after a short deliberatiom returned a verdict of Guilty against both the prisoners . The learned Judge , in passing sentence , said that the prisoners had been convicted of one of the worst assaults he had ever heard of in a
court of justice . It was most fortunate indeed tor them that the dreadful injuries they had inflicted did not cause death , or they would then have stood at the bar capitally convicted . Though no fatal result had ensued , there could bono doubt that morally they were even now guilty of murder . It is , said his lordshi p , abominable that in this country men should think that a gamekeeper is a victim that a poacher may kill like a hare . This cannot be tolerated ; it must be put a stop to . The statute was imperative , and he had no option . 'bnt the prisoners ' friends might apply for mitigation of the punishment to another quarter . The learned judge then sentenced both the prisoners to fifteen years' transportation .
NORFOLK CIRCUIT . BccE . isc . nAM , July 11 . —Cuiiisg asd WorSDixo . —Robert Price , aged 21 , and John Martin , aged , 27 , were indicted for cutting and wounding Francis Saunders with intent to do him some grievous bodil y harm , . nnd to prevent their lawful apprehension . The prosecutor is the bailiff of Mr . Dashwood , a gentleman residing at West Wycombe , in this county , and was going his usual rouud in the farm-yard at eleven o ' clock at night , on the I 2 th of May last , when his attention was roused by the presence of a " small sandy terrier dog , " which ran towards the hen-house . On approaching that building the prosecutor became aware that some strangers were in it , and attempted to open the door . While so engaged he received from some one a severe blow on the head with a stick , but nothing daunted , henersisted in his
efforts , seizing hold of the half-opened door with his right hand . Upon this he received » cut across the wrist with a knife , which compelled him to let go , whereupon two men rushed out and made their escape , together with their dog . On examining the hen-house several dead ducks were found , all ready for removal . In order to bring this charge home to the prisoners , the prosecutor now described the dress and personal appearance of the men he had seen on the night in question , and it was shown that the prisoners , on the same night , were drinking at a neighbouring public-house , which they left just before eleven o clock , with a small sandy terrier sort of a dog ; besides which , one of them , when arrested on this charge , exclaimed with an oath that" they were done at last .

. WESTERN CIRCUIT . Winchester , Jely 14 . —Cuttixo asb Wouxdisg . — John Dcsmody was indicted for cutting and wounding John Beachom , with intent to murder him , with a second count charging the intent to be to do grievous bodily harm . The prosecutor stated that he was th « ostler at the Railway Tavern at Fareham . A few weeks before the 24 th of March , the prisoner came there with two horses belonging to Captain Sej'mour . He put the horses into the stable , and went into the house to get some refreshment . Having had this , he came out , took the horses out of the stable , and proceeded to mount one to start . Prosecutor seeing this , inquired if he had paid for the horses , and prisoner said he had . He then rode off . The prosecutor inquired of his master if the horses had been paid for ,
and he said that they had , but that the prisoner had left no gratuity for the ostler . Hearing this , prosecutor ran after him , overtook him , and complained of the omission . Prisoner replied , he never paid anything to the ostler unless he stayed all night ; and that he should give prosecutor nothing . Prosecutor said if that were the case he should complain to his ( the prisoner ' s ) master by letter . The prisoner then proceeded on his way . On the 24 th of March , prisoner came again to the inn with two other horses . He came into the Stable where , ' p iosecuior wis , - and upon seeing him inquired if he had written the letter vel ? Prosecutor said "he had not yet , but that he should do so . " On this an angry discussion took ulace . andnrisoncr struckthenrosccutor several blows ,
which he did not return . Prosecutor then left the stable , and proceeded to the station with a fly . In the etible yard the prisoner came up to him nith a prcng , with which he struck at him , and missing his blow , tried to stab him with it . Having a loose great coat Huns ; over his arm no damage ensued , and he went on to the station with his fly . Shortly after the prisoner took out his horses and led them to tne station also , where he put them into a horse box . Prosecutor then went towards this horse box , and prisoner seeing him , advanced to meet him , with a hunting whip in his left hand , and something ciasped in his right which could not be seen . He addressed prosecutor , and asked , "Nowyou , will you give
it tome ? " To which prosecutor replied , he would if he would act like a man . Prisoner then struck at him with the whip , and prosecutor then knocked inm down with his fist . A scuffle ensued , and both fell tp the ground . On rising , prosecutor found hiiiiscli dreadislly wounded , and was in a minute deluged with blood . He was led into his master ' s house , a surgeon was * cnt for , and his wounds dressed . One extended ahnt-si seven inches , from the forc . ' icaw to tho on-, and w . ; s ei : t to the bone .

On searching the spot Where the seuflle had taken place the blade of the knife was picked up covered with blood , flesh , and hair This blade and the parts of the handle found m the prisoner ' s possession were put together and matched exactly .

The Ballinhassia Inquest. The Case For T...
THE BALLINHASSia INQUEST . The case for the defence was opened on Saturday morning by Mr . Scannell , who addressed the jury at considerable length . A policeman named flickson , who was present , but took no part in the conflict , was then examined , and throughout his examination made it appear that stones were thrown at the police thick as hail , that the police were in danger of their lives , and that only when in the last extremity they iired on the people . His evidence contradicted almost point-blank all that had been sworn to by
the witnesses for the prosecution , relative to the eonduct of the police on the one side and the mob on the other . The witness was cross-examined by Mr . Walsh , but without anything contradictory to his evidence being elicited from him . . After . the examination of another witness the inquiry was adjourned to Monday morning . On Monday the coronor and jury assembled at the usual hour , and a witness named Thomas Hornibrook , clerk of Ballinabog church , wasesamined , but his evidence was unimportant .
Duum , July 16 . —The Ballinhassig inquest was brought to a close on Tuesday , but the jury had not returned a verdict at post hour .
THE 12 m OF JULY-FATAL CONFLICT IN
ARMAGH . ( From the Correspondent of the Times . ) Bvbus , July 11—It will be learned with regret , that the second July anniversary ( tho Battle of the Boync ) has not passed over without bloodshed and loss of lite . A desperate conflict took place in the city of Armagh between the antagonist parties , which ended in the death of one man , and several others , men and women , receiving severe wounds , It is admitted on all hands , If such can be a palliation for these dreadful scenes , that the Roman Catholics wore the [ aggressors in tlie first instance . The following account is furnished by the correspondent of the Evening Mail : — " Armagh , Saturday Night , 12 o clock . —You will , no doubt , have so many accounts of the unhappy affray which took place here , that I am anxious to eive
you the particulars as correctly as I could ascertain them . I have taken much pains to come at the truth , and have visited the wounded persons in the hospital . About half-past 5 o ' clock the Orange procession returned into town , iu a peaceable and orderly manner , having gone out at an . carly hour of the day ; the street they passed through was the leading thoroughfare by . the racket-house , and turning down Thomas-street , they proceeded into Dobbin-street , which is at right angles with Thomas-street . At the corner where these streets meet , Ogle-street commences ; and here a determined and preconcerted plan of opposition was intended , the Roman Catholic party expecting the procession would go up Oglestrcet , to Irish-street , its they were in the habit of doing some years ago . When about half the
procession had passed the corner , a stone was thrown Irom the Roman Catholic party , who had assembled in large numbers , at " an Orangeman who was on horseback , andimmeniately after a shot was fired from the house of a man named Rocks , a Roman Catholic . It is believed that this was the shot which struck William Magec , a Protestant , and the first person wounded . Of course such an attach led to retaliation , and several shots were fired from both parties , the Orangemen turning round in sc't-dcfeiice . The result was , that of the Roman Catholic party the following persons were wounded : — Atme Maguire , badly vounded in the groin . Thomas Corr , in the breast , slightly . Eliza Henderson , in the ankle , slightly . John Boyle , in the groin , severely . The latter died an hour after he was token to the
infirmary . * ' Intelligence reached the Grand Jury , who were assembled on fiscal business , that a riot had commenced , and immediately three of the local magistrates loft the Grand Jury-room ; one to order out the military , and the others to endeavour to quell the riot . The military , who were under arms all day , were soon at the scene of action , but all the mischief which occurred was done before ' they arrived ; and the Sovereign read the Riot Act , and succeeded in dispersing the mob without the necessity of ordering the police or military to fire . Scarcely a window in Ogle-street has a whole pane of glass . The attack on the Protestants must have been premeditated , as several of the upper windows had tho sashes taken out , to enable the inmates to throw
large stones down as they passed . Disappointed of this , by the procession turning down Dobuiii-sfcr . jet , tho stones were flung at the mounted man in the procession ; this led the Orange party to return , and thus the Roman Catholics were afforded an opportunity of showering down those large stones , which were flying so thick that the mounted policemen were obliged to retreat , no magistrate being present at the commencement , when , if ordered to lire blank cartridge , the rioters might have retreated . These arc , asnear as I can ascertain , the correct particulars ; the military were stationed in tlie markcthonsc , and will remain there all night underarms . Further Paiiticuxaus , —{ From the Times of Thursday ) . — 'In addition ^ to the particulars which have already appeared of this unfortunate occurrence , the
Neiory Telegraph states , that " about an hour after the-military had returned to their barracks , another riot occurred in Tltonias-stroot , in the endeavour of tlie mob to break into the house of a Protestant named Lcckcy . The troops having been called mft by Mr . Paton , the rioters rapidly dispersed . The military then perambulated the town , accompanied by the magistrates—namelv , Messrs . Paton , Dobbin , Robinson , Cross , Algco , and Harris . Thev remained in the market-house until three o ' clock tlie following morning , when the magistrates , believing all danger at an end , permitted the men to return to til ir barracks . At four o ' clock , A .: r ., however , the house of a respectable Protestant named Cochrane , atinsmith , was-attacked by the Itomap . ists and wrecked . Informations haying been sworn against two of the party concerned in this last nefarious proceeding , one of
them was arrested by . the police during divine service on Sunday . While being conveyed to gaol , however , by a party of police , who were well armed ( the count v inspector being at their head ) , the prisoner was rescued by an audacious mob , which intimidated the police so effectually ' that not the slightest resistance was made on the part of thoso usually formidable " tCITOl'S ( 0 CViUIoors ! " In the course of the day a yomig fellow , charged as ' ring-leader , in this rescue , wns apprehended and committed to prison . The inquest on the body of Boyle is now ( Monday , two o clock r . M ., ) being held in the market-house . The jury were sworn in about twelve o ' clock , before the enroner , Mr . J . jU Magcc . The Earl of Gosford and the undcr-, .

Colvin , the surgeon to the inlirniary , has reported today that the persons wounded are all going on favourably . Of the persons wounded , three are Protestants , and four Roman Catholics—two of the latter , women , being in the act of filling their aprons with stones at the time tho riot was hottest . The young man ( Boyle ) was buried this day ( Monday ) , - and the funeral was attended by at least 2 , 000 people .
STATE OF CAVAN . It appears by a communication addressed by the Hon . Somerset Maxwell , brother to Lord Farn ' ham , to the Evening Hail , thatthe much vaunted " mixed " meeting lately held in Cavan lias not been attended by the least beneficial result . On the contrary , matters seem to be much worse than ever . Hear what Mr . Maxwell , who was one of the most sanguine in his anticipations of an improved state of society , savs upon the subject in the course of his letter , which bears date Cavan , July 12 : — " To my own knowledge , this day , victims have been singled out both in the grand jury room and in tlie court . One of our leading jurors in the one , and a professional gentleman in the other , have shewn to mc letters addressed to themselves ( one received since
morning , the other within the last two days ) , couched in no equivocal language ; and appended ' thereto arc the usual emblems of death . As a grand juror and a magistrate , it would ill become mc to present mv- ] self before your readers as an alarmist , and it would bo far from patriotic to seek to make our case worse than it is . With this preface , I would say that wo ' are decidedly , by rapid strides , progressing from bad to worse Impunity emboldens the lawless—the un- ¦ paralleled lightness of our calendar , contrasted with ' the equally unparalleled prevalence of crime , pro- , claims , . trumpct-tongued , to the world that which , from our own bitter experience , wc too well know —the existence of a fearful conspiracy among the Roman Catholic portion of our population . It had been the earnest hope of many among us that while
wc left the law to deal with overt acts , wc might be enabled , with God ' s blessing , to unite even the most discordant elements for the accomplishment of one specific object—the protection of human life—in reaching , by our combined efforts , the root , the source , the spring of that terrorism , of those evils from which , at present , wc can see no escape . * And again : —All the horrors around us , which now stare us in the face , are but the legitimate crop of tllC Seed SOWll by tho Repeal agitation . Tho priest himself is sometimes seen to stand aghast at the magnitude of the evil which ho has undoubtedly contributed to create—An instance of this occurred yesterday . The Rev . Mr . Brady , pricstof the parish in which Mr . Booth was murdered , requested an interview with me . I went to him , with two other magistrates . We found him in great trepidation , accompanied by a respectable Roman Catholic and two Protestants , who , as a deputation from Balinagh , vecussted a larger body of military to prevent an
expected rencontre between two parties to-day . Mr . Brady acknowledged that the Roman Catholics were likely to be the aggressors—that they intended to hava what he had every reason to believe a mock funeral—and he said that , if confirmed in his belief , he would certainly have the coffin opened , and expose the fraud . He feared that these proceedings would bring down upon them the Orangemen from " the Manor , " who he heard intended to come through Ballinagh with their arms and colours ; at the same time lie repeated to us that he dreaded most the violence of the funeral procession . Informations wore taken , and a large party of military left the town this morning . I believe their presence awed the populace , and I have every reason to hope that at Ballinagh and elsewhere throughout the county , tho Orangemen will prove to have maintained that character for forbearance and good sense which I presented to the public , through your columns , on the day of Mr . Booth ' s funeral .
On Saturday last a large body of insurgents , fully organized , regimented , and armed , and to all appearance courting a conflict , was discovered iu full inarch . This fact is vouched for in the following declaration made before two magistrates on the day of the occurrence : — " County of Cavan , " ) Tlie declaration of the to wit . > Rev . , of , ~— . ) curate of , in said county , who solemnly . dcclareth and saith , that at the hour of one o ' clock p . m ., on the 12 th of July , while on his way to Cavan was informed hy , of , that a largo . iwnad body had just passed his house , taking the direction of Ballinagh . Deponent , with the object of having personal inspection of tlie body , rode after them , and camo in view of a lar ^ c armed force near the chapel of
Drumavaddy . They had by this time fa « cd about , apparently waiting for reinforcement to their bod y , as declarant saw several men from the adjoining fields running to meet them armed with pikes , scythes , & c . Declarant rode slowly through the body , taking a close inspection of them ; every fourth man appeared armed with . a gun ; about half the number had cither pikes about eighteen inches long , fastened to ' pikc-handlcs about fifteen feet long , or bayonets similarly fastened ; the remaining fourth had scythes or bludgeons . Declarant , upon reaching the end of the boily , turned his horse mud , and rode through the body again , by which declarant had a perfect opportunity of noticing their mode of equipment , & c . ; declarant observed several with pistols ; declarant , after having passed about three-fourths of tho body , deliberately counted what now remained in front of him , and found it to consist of 135 in number ; they had near the front a fiddle and a flute , and
they marched to music ; about 100 yards in front there were two men With muskets , apparently as scouts , or an advanced guard ; declarant was allowed to pass unmolested ; declarant subjoins a sketch of the pikes ho observed . " Taken before us , the 12 th day of July , 1815 . " Pibkce McRTo . v , \ Justices of the Peace for "Abiluum Bausn , / the said County . " The weapons arc thus described : — * ' The first appears to be a simple rude blade of iron , sharpened at the edges , and at both ends , one of which , to be inserted in a pole . No . 2 , is a bayonet ; No . (! , a scythe , with the licet straightened and extended ; No . i , a pike , in the form of the halberds formerly carried by sergeants in the line . AU these weapons ( except the scythe , which is of the usual length ) arc from fifteen to eighteen inches long , fixed to poles , making the whole implement about fifteen feet in length . "
Riots at Newry , Jolt 14 . —This day , at three o ' clock , p . m ., a body of about fifty Orangemen , came down tho mountain from Altnavcagh , beating drums and firing random shots . Many of thorn were dressed with sashes . They . had one large ( lag . At the corner of Kiln-street ( on the borders of the town ) they wheeled about and ftved several rounds opposite the Court-house . By this time a crowd began to collect of the Liberal party , a great part of whom were women and boys . Hooting and hissing then commenced , and stones began to ily from both sides . The Orangemen then retreated up Doran ' s-hill , each party advancing and retreating alternately , amid showers of stones . Some windows were broken . At this time they received information that the people were about to surround them , therefore they prudently marched , or rather decamped , up tho hill again to Altnavcagh , where they went through the mockery of a sham battle .
Shipwreck Op A Dutch Indiaman.-Nineteen ...
SHIPWRECK OP A DUTCH INDIAMAN .-NINETEEN OF THE CREW STARVED TO DEATH , AND FOUll DItOlV ' iNEP , One of the most heartrending shipwrecks that has happened for some time was ou Thursday made known at Lloyd ' s , hy the arrival of the ship Chance , Captain Pvoxby , from Sydney , in the London Docks , having on board a portion of the crew of a Dutch Intiaman , named the "John Hendrick , " II . -W . Edkclcnbttry , master , which was totally lost on the ricks forming St . Paul ' s Island , on the morning of the 2 'Jth of May , while on her voyage from Amsterdam to Batavier . The manner in which the deplorable occurrence was discovered is remarkable . It appears that on the night of the 2 nd of June , the crew of the Chance were anxious to ascertain whether
such rocks as were laid down in the chart , forming St . Paul ' s Island , forty-live miles north of the equator , and twenty-nine degrees west , were really to he seen , as many doubts prevailed as to their existence . Captain lloxhy informed them that if the same comsi they were then going was kept until tiic following morning , they would conic in sight of the rocks . Accordingly at eight o ' clock they descried them , and afc half-past nine the Captain iras much surprised by observing , through a glass , a Dutch ensign Hying from a spar on the island . It being surmised that a vessel had been wrecked near the spot , no time was lost in bearing up to the rocks , and , on ncaring them , several persons were noticed on them , evidently in an exhausted state . The captain ordered the pinnace to proceed to their
assistance . About twenty poor creatures were found lying about , exhausted and apparently in a dying condition The boat not being a We to take . tJicm all oil , the captain , the chief officer , steward , C ! ivjM >» tev , two seamen , and three apprentice boys , were hr * t rescued , the remainder being assured by the boat ' s party that they would return and preserve them also , The ship was specciilv gained , and on the captain learning that eleven persons were still on the island , ho promptly ordered the long boat to bo lowered , and with the pinnace started for the rocks . Only twelve minutes elapsed ere thev had set out a second time for the island , but in the meanwhile a sharp breeze had ¦ s-nrung up , « i tremendous a-a ran , and a strong
current set in to the westward , lioth ooats Kept ueaiing about for five hours , and it appearing evident that if thev Kent out much later they vo . dobeswcnt nwav , thev returned to the ship , haviii . s bccn imabc to render the promised assistance . It «?
