0 BA 2 fGE WRECKINGS IN TYRONE—PROCLAMATION OF THE GOVERNMENT . CfVoro the Dublin Evening Post . ) la the Honse of 'Lords , on Thursday , Lord ieRon reqnaed the calling out of the Orange Tannanry , in order to produce "a great moral ^« thronghoutjthe country , " and as "the surest jafliBOst effeexna ! mods of restoring tranquillity V ilalst the Orange Lord was staking this demand , 28 Orange Yeomanry were already out , actively sjjoyed in producing " & great moral effect , " after asroJd fashion , in the wrecking and burning of cgionses of unoffending and defenceless Catholics , E&econnty of Tyrone—in maltreating and robbing joor widows and helpless children , and in regaling EsnselvesinthBhoasesof the "Loyalists , " '" ' in the ar * B « f Bmjgaimon , after they had accomplihsed { he Unions work of wrecking in a neighbouring Skre .
BiDse atrocious crimes were committed in the f ? en day , xrpon Tnesday last , within sevenJy-as sSesof I&blin ; and after the lapse of ibnr days , vs organ of Lord de Grej , the Dublin Evening ifc 2 , suppresses all allusion ia them , being engaged , fig Lord Lorton , in demanding the re-organization if lie Orange bloodhoniid 3 , whose first demonstra am of their capacity to *' restore ttanquillirv" is Ascribed in ibe following communication .

their hands on . The greater part of thk mischief was perpetrated , as we are informed , m presence of vi * police , who remained passive spectators of the scene until it was too late to interfere . The ruffians » length were interrupted , and returned to Dnngannon , where , for the rest of tho day , yells and shouts sad every description of drnnken discord , disturbed the peace of the town . The Repealers remained , throughout this irritating scene , perfectly quiet . " : The wreckings , according to this statement , took place m presence of the police . But , indeed , thiB is tacitly admitted by the Orange journals of the district ; one of which , the Northern Standard , published in the adjoining county of Honaghan , glorie 3 in the atrocities , and , in ihe excitement of gratified vengeance , incites the Orangemen to murder Mr . O'ConnelL
It is pretended that a detachment of the armed Orangemen , passing throDgh Carland , were attacked by the Catholic inhabitants of the hamlet , who , it is admitted , were without arms . The pretext for the subsequent wreckings and plunder is the fabrication that the unarmed Catholics were theaggressors upon an armed party of Orangemen ! It is thus that the Northern Standard reports progress on the work of devastation : — ** We learn tkat in all forty-fiT ^ houseB were razed to the ground ; bnt , although we heard this from very excellent authorities before we left Dungannon , we scarcely think it possible that so much mischief could have been done in bo very short a time , as Sub-inspector Irwin and the constabulary force
under his command , accompanied by Robert Wray , Esq :, J . P ., left town a few minutes after the procesr ion , and proceeded with the utmost dispatch to the scene of action . It is fortunate that the Repealers cut and run—it is fortunate that they are cowards as well as bullies—otherwise the consequences would have been dreadful—many , very many lives wonld have been sacrificed , and the crisis which is approaching might have been hastened to an immediate consummation . Ii 13 equally fortunate that the wounds inflicted on Morrow -were not fatal , for if they were , and that he or one of his party had been sent to their account , O"Connell would have a very short time to triumph in his agitation . —flowever , having wrecked their vengeance on the property of their enemies , the . procession returned into
town , and paraded throngh © very street , marching in merry order to the airs of 'The Protestant Boys , ' 1 Croppies lie oown / &c . About six o ' clock they separated for a little time aad partook of refreshment , provided for them by sonle of the loyal inhabitants , and again having assembled in Ihe Diamond , they welcomed a company of the 83 d , which arrived from Charlemont , with three hearty cheers . This force was brought from their quarters through Sa torrent of rain , in consequence of an affidavit made by one of the Repealers , a shop or public-house keeper , or something of that sort , whose name , we believe , is Parrell , that his house was in danger ; and that the leaders of the Repeal party were made to cry peccavi when they roused the Protestant lion . The army were not , however , required . §
" Abont seven o ' clock the entire body again assembledln the Diamond , and being told off in companies , left the town in the most peaceable manner , their bands playing before them . " This is the Orange glorification of the wreckings . Another Orange organ , the Newry Telegraph , gives the following accoust of the Backers of the village of Carland : — ; ** The ' procession moved on in the direction of Carland ; but as its progress was comparatively slow , a number of the more rash and hot-headed of the assemblage rap forward at fall speed towards the village . Arriving there , and finding that t ^ e Repealers had taken to their heels , they , exasperated to a pitch of fury at the treatment their friends had experienced , commenced , I am sorry to say , the wrecking of the Repealers dwellings . While the work of destruction was going on , oar local msgistrate , R . Wray , Esq ., arrived at the place with a party of police , and no further damage was done . "
This 1 b the Orange admission . Mr . Wray , who i 3 , we understand , the agent of Lord Ranfurlj , arrived whilst the Orangemen were engaged in wrecking snd robbing the houses of the Catholics . Why did not Mr . Wray order the arrest of the lawless banditti ? He saw them wrecking the houses , and maltreating the poor defenceless women ^ Why , we demand , did he not direct their immediate apprehension ? This is a question which Mr . Wray must answer . We would suggest that a copy of his report to Government should at once be moved for m the House of Commons .
And here a word respecting the Arms Bill . The discretion is given to the magistrates to allow arms to those they consider qualified . Here we find ^ a mob . of armed Orangemen engaged in the commission of outrage , and instead of apprehending and disarming them , the Orange organ tells us that justice was satisfied , because " no further damage was done . " Here 13 an illustration of what we are to expect under the operation of the Arms-Bill . Lord De Grey and his Castle advisers are now offering a reward of £ 100 for the apprehension iof the Orange banditti . The following proclamation appears in the Gazette of last night : — a Dublin Castle . June 2 , 1843 .:
"Whereasit has been represented to the Lord-Lientenant , that on the 30 ; h ultimo , several houses in the townlands of Lisboy , Carland , Feroy , and Creeragh , situate in the parish of Donaghmore , and county of Tyrone , were considerably injured by an assemblage of persons , about 4 , 008 in number . His excellency , for the better apprehending and bringing to justice the perpetrators of this outrage , is hereby pleased to offer a reward of £ 100 to any person or persons fexcept the persons or persons who actually committed the same 3 , who shall , within six months from the date hereof , give such information as shaft lead to ihe apprehension and conviction of all , and proportionally for one or more of the persons concerned therein . " By his Excellency ' s command , « E . Lucas . "
It is too late , my Lord De Grey . You will never hear of the arrest of one of them . The Orangemen are sworn to be true to each other , and they are $ 00 well organized to break the compact . Yonr magistrate did not order the arrests at the only time they conld be made , and your proclamation will only be laughed at . Dismissal op E . B . Roche , Esq ., M . P ., Fbom the Deputt-Lieutekasct . —The Lord Lieutenant of Ireland has directed the Lord Lieutenant of the county , to remove onr connty member , Mr . Roche , from the deputy lieutenancy of the county . Mr . Roche was deputy lieutenant before the Earl of Bandon was appointed lieutenant , and we believe would have resigned " the office of honour , " if he thonght itwasone held nnder this government . —Cork Reporter of Thursday .

After each sermon liberal collections were made on behalf of the children of the school . On Monday a public tea ip provided for the teachers and children in the school room , and on Tuesday the children-paraded the town under the guidance of their teachers . At varions places appropriate pieces were sung , in which they acquitted themselves in a manner which did great credit to their teachers .
The WHrrsro-TiDE Holtdats have been kept up with great spirit here in Wakefield . Numbers ofthe Tsrions Secret Orders have held their Annual Fesrival , at the several Inns , in the town . Good eating and drinking seemed for once to have ruled the day . At Ifewton , a display of rustic sports took place , and great numbers assembled together to enjoy the fun . The neighbourhood of Potovens held their feast on Monday last , and the scene was enlivened by the Temperance Brass Band piaying at intervals during the day . All care and sorrow was banished from the countenances of those who attended the feast .
On Wednesday last , the Waktfield Board of Guardians was attended by Mr . Clements , one ofthe assistant commissioners , from London , when the previous vote , that two relieving officers be elected , with £ 50 a year each , w * s rescinded . Mr . Clement wished for one with £ 100 ealary , but was overruled . After a deal of cavDling , the sum of £ 70 was agreed upon for one relieving officer . , Etteksivs Sbizubes at Wakbfibid . —During the Dastweek the exeise officers have been doing great thinga in this town in the way of seizureBof scouring £ « , £ This is an article nsed only by the poorer

LEEDS . —HoBEcoiTUHAL Display . —On Wednesday afternoon last , the first show for the present year of the Leeds Floral and Horticnltaral Society took place at tha Music Hall , Albion-street , when there were Borne choice specimens of horticultural produce exhibited . The show of tulips , and of greenhouse plants was toore meagre than we have seen on some former occasions , but there were , nevertheless , of the latter , sortie beautiful specimens exhibited . The tulip 3 were principally from the gardens of Mr . Benjamin Ely , of Rothwell Haigh ; and although the season has been against them there
were a number of blooms which attracted great attention . The finest pansies were from the gardens of Mr . Major and Mri Scholefield , cf Kaostrop . The gentlemen ' s gardeners were the successful competitors for the prizes for fruits and vegetables , amongst whom Mr . Carr ^ garden er to Thos . Benyon , Esq . of Ronndhay , appeared to be the principal . The company was not so numerous as we have seen ; at least there were not so many persons in the room at one time . The band of the 6 th Dragoons ware in attendance , and delighted all who heard them by the performance of an excellent selection of mu 3 io . The exhibition closed at five o ' clock .
Leeds District Court of Bankruptcy . —In this court , on Wednesday last , before Mr . Commissioner Bere , Mr . Thomas Smithson , tobacconnist , of York , made an application for his certificate . He was opposed by Mi . Blackburn , solicitor of Leeds , on behalf of the principal creditors , the Yorkshire District Bank , and Mr . Thompson . Mr . Bond , also of Leeds , solicitor , was engaged for the bankrupt . It appeared from Mr . Blackburn's statement , that the bankrupt was insolvent in 1834 , in upwards of £ 2 , 000 ; that he subsequently opened an account with the Agricultural Bank , and obtained large advances ; that his profits since 1834 , had been about £ 550 a year , and his expenditure about £ 8 C 0 . During this time he regularly hunted , became a councillor of the
City of York , and kept up a first rate appearance . He was now owing about £ 4 , 800 , and his assets did not exceed £ 550 ; he had also made several false statements relative to some parts of his accounts . Mr . Blackburn argued that as the 39 th sec . of the 5 and 6 Victoria , had expressly provided that the Court in deciding the question should consider the conduct of the bankrupt ! both before and after his bankruptcy , that the bankrupt was not entitled to his certificate , on the ground that from 1834 down to the present time , his conduct had been fraudulent , and that he had not given a full statement of his affairs . Mr . Bond contended that there was no fraudulent intention on the part of the bankrupt , and attempted to : explain omissionB in hi 3 cish accounts . AFter the
matter had been fairly gone into , the Learned CommiBSioner delivered judgment , observing that there was a material difference between a bankrupt passing his last examination and obtaining his certificate . He might tell all the truth , and though unsa tisfactory , there might be sufficient ireason for passing his examination , but that did not furnish ground for granting the certificate . If the last act of parliament had not passed , the bankrupt could not have obtained his certificate , for the opposing creditors were of an amount sufficient toprevent it , and the court must look at the fact of the creditors opposing , and to a considerable extent be guided by it . He found , iu this case , that the bankrupt , while in a state of hopeless insolvencv , had engaged in pursuits in which he was not justified ; that his whole conduct had been that of reckless extravagance and inattention to business , making a small profit and spending largely . He found also that during last year the bankrupt
had made a return of bis income at £ 350 a year ; a course of proceeding which could not ba sufficiently deprecated . In short , he found that from the commencement to the present time , the . bankrupt had pursued a course of extravagance wholly unjustifiable , that his profits fell far short of his expenditure , that upon bis examination into his brother ' s accounts he had given most unsatisfactory answers , and made several different statements , first making his brother a debtor 33 . 9 d .. then a creditor for £ 85 , and , lastly , a debtor for £ 37 ; that he had not given a fair and creditable account of his property ; and , therefore , taking all these thing 3 into his consideration , and looking at the fact that a large body of creditors opposed his certificate , his Honor was bound to say that such a person should not be allowed easily to return to trade , and his judgment was , that the consideration of the certificate should be suspended for two years , and if at that time the bankrupt could come with a better statement of facts , he might ;
de so . Stealing Silver Pla ^ te . —On Wednesday last , a young woman named Harriet Collins , the wife of a private in the Royal Artillery , now Etationed at Leeds Barracks , was brought before Richard Bramley , Esq ., at the Court House , on a charge of having stolen four silver spoons , the property of Ralph Markland , E ? q . The prisoner left Mr . Markland ' s service abovt eight months ago , and on Tuesday last she called there to sea the housemaid , whom she solicited to allow her to assist in cleaning up the drawing-room . She did so , and for a few minutes
left the prisoner by herself , who , from her knowledge ofthe place where the key of the plate-chest was deposited contrived in this interval , to possess herself of the spoons in question , which were missed when the plate was wanted for dinner . The housemaid at once communicated the fact to Mrs . Markland , and information was given to the police . Mr . James apprehended the prisoner at the lodgings of her hus - band in Barrack-street . The spoons were found pledged at Mr . Longbottom ' s ia Harewood-Btreet , by whom they were received between eleven and twelve on Tuesday forenoon . The prisoner was committed for trial at the sessions .
DfiCMKENSESS at Chubch . On Monday last , Wm . Rhodes , a journeyman compositor , was charged at the Court Hour © with being drank and disorderly at St . Luke ' s Church , - on Sunday evening . Mr . Holroyd , the churchwarden , proved the offence , and the prieoner was fined 5 s . and costs , 01 three days ' imprisonment . Fighting in the Street . —On Monday , before Messrs . Grace and Wright , at the Leeds Court-house . Jeshna Dobson and James Leathead were fined 53 . and costs , or three days imprisonment , for having been found drunk and fighting in the street , on Sunday morning at five o'clock . Belgrave Siwdat Schools . —On Sunday last , two sermons were preached in Belgrade Chapel , Leeds , by the Rev . Dr . Vanghan , president of the new college , at Manchester , after which , collections amounting to £ 29 14 s . were made on behalf of the Sunday schools connected with that place of worship .
Fireworks . —On Monday evening , Mr . Knowles gave another display of fireworks , in the yard of the White Cloth Hall . The pieces were superior to those of the previous exhibition , bat thg company , we regret to say were not sufficiently numerous to repay the artist for his tronble and cost . Poor Rate . —The poor rate of 2 s . iu the pound , laid by the overseers on ' the 11 th of Slay , was , on Saturday last , confirmed by the magistrates in petty sessions , at the Leeds Court House . It will , therefore , be notr in course ofcoilection . Assault . —On Monday last , a young man named David Holroyd was charged at the Leeds Court Honse with having been drunk on Saturday night , and with having assaulted Mr . Superintendent James . He was fined 20 s . and costs , or in default of payment , sent a month to Wakefield .
Assault and Robbery . —On Monday last , two men named Benjamin Thompson and William Beckwlth , of Hunslet , colliers , were charged before Messrs . Grace and Wright , at the Leeds Court House , with having committed an aggravated assault upon a person , on Sunday morning about three o'clock , and also with having stolen his cloth cap . The prosecutor said be was returning from Wakefield , arid that the prisoners attacked him at Thwaite Gate ; Thompson was the man who assaulted him , the other was only there . The cap not being found , and it being of no great value , the magistrates decided upon a summary conviction , and fined Thompson £ 4 . and costs , or two months to Wakefield ; Beokwith was discharged . The Yorkshire Summer Assizes have , we understand , been fixed to be held on Wednesday , the 12 ch of July next .
Inquesi , —On Monday morning , an in inquest was held at the Cardigan Atdi 3 Inn , Bramley , before John Blackburn , Esq ., coroner , to inquire concerning the death of Henry Bates , a youth fourteen years of age , who resided at Bramley , and who died rather snddenly on Saturday . The deceased complained of being iliOB Friday , and weni to bed ; he uwas left there on Safnrday morning by his sister when she went to wi > ts , awil on her retnrn , about foar o ' clock in the afternoon , she fomid him dead in bed . Mr . Calvert , surgeon , of Bramley , was directly sent for ; he made a post-mortem examination by order of tho coroner , in consequence of rumours he had heard , and gave it as his opinion that death had been produced by a sudden attack of inflammation of the brain , arising from perfectly natural causes . Verdict accordingly .
Stjkdat Schools . —On Monday last , according to annual custom on Whit-Monday , the scholars attending the various Sunday Schools in Leeds , assembled at different places , and were paraded through the streetB to their respective places of worship , and were regaled beBides with buns , and , in some in ^ stances , with tea . The Dissenters , or Snnday School Union , as usual , had the use ofthe Cloth Hail Yard , where although there was a goodly number , yet they < did not muster so strong as on former years , probably owing , in a great Imeasure , to the unsettled state of the weather , which prevented tbeattendance
of schools from the country . The parochial schools attended the parish church , and the national schools St . George ' s church . The Catholic schools were at St . Ann ' s ; the Unitarian at Mill Hill ; the Wesleyang at their several chapels—other denominations at theirs . Oa the whole , much pleasure seemed to arise to all parties connected with the schools , and the children were as happy as children generalk are under such circumstances . We believe it had been arranged for some of the schools 10 visit ihe Botanical Gardens , an intention which the weather had prevented from being carried into effect , iu coa .-equeaee of the very wet srate of the ground .

The servant girl , it appears , tras--jsffieeping in a back kitoben , and by some means broke a battle containing turpentine ; the liquid ran over ! the floor , and by way of getting rid of it she swept it towards the fire place , where $ ome cinders had just fallen frem the grate . As a { matter of course the inflammable liquid was instantly in a Maze , and ihe girl , with Mrs . Galleway and her daughter , who were in the kitchen , were also enveloped in the flame . The servant was so frightfully burnt
as to render her removal to the Infirmary necessary , and j we are sorry to say there are no hopes of her recovery . Mrs . Galloway aad her daughterare doing well , though both are ' much injured . An alarm was soon spread , and the town ' s engine from the police-oflice was speedily on the spot , and , aided by a plentiful supply of water from the plugs , the fire-men were enabled to get the fire under before much mischief had been done . A rumour was circulated , soon after the fire had broken out that a little boy was in the upper garret , and feara for his safety were entertained , on account of the density of the smoke , but we are happy to say the rumour was without foundation .
An Unpeofitable Customer . —At the Court House , on Monday week , a man of the name of George Bottomley , was brought up before the sitting magistrates under the following , circumstances . On Saturday evening he went to the Queen's Head Ian , at Mill Hill * kept by Mr . Armitage , and having engaged a bed , ordered coffee and ham , which was supplied to him , and after that a glass of brandy and water . Tho next morninghe partook of breakfast , but when called upon to pay his bill , he stated that he could not do so till he received some money dae to him iu the town , and aa he refused to
give bis name , Mr . Armitage called- a policeman and gave hint into custody . Besides Mr . Armitage , other persona ,- whom he had duped in a similar manner , were in attendance to complaint against him . Mr . Parker of the Clarendon Hotol , Water-lane , stated that on Friday evening last , the day before he visited Mr . Armitage , the prisoner called , engaged a bed , partook of fried bacon aud eggs jto supper , and a glass of brandy and water after it . The next morning he had breakfast , after which he said he had no money , but expected to receive ' some in the town ; that his name was Bottomley and he came from Halifax . On this
representation , and appearing to be acquainted with parties' at Halifax , he was allowed to leave the house to seek , as he pretended , some money . In the coarse ofthe day he returned , wrote a note which he addressed to Mrs . Blackburn , wife of Mr . T . Blackburn , woollen-draper , Briggate , which note was sent by a messenger , who did not bring back anl answer . Soon afterwards the prisoner went out and did not return anymore . Prior to his stay at the Clarendon , he had lived a week at Parker ' s Temperance Hotel , having gone there oa the 17 th May ; he left his bill unpaid . Whilst at this place he stated he was about to publish a book : pretented to be a great enthusiast ; and said he had been three daysinhell ; and that God had toldhimtogetintodebt .
The following is ; the man ' s own history , as written by himself , and found in his pookefc when searched at the police office : — " Left my situation March , 1840 . Run into debt with W .

The landlord gave them a few things , and they had to go and live in a cold damp place , where I understood the old woman soon afterwards died . Left the Temperance Coffee House , and west to live at the Spread Eagle Inn , in the same street . Here got into debt 16 s . 4 d . From this place I was taken before the magistrates , charged with getting goods under false pretencesafter a hearing before them I was dismissed .

Wilkinson , bacon factor , Briggate , on Saturday night last . At the time the robbery was committed , Mrs . Wilkinson was in the room ; adjoining the shop . The prisoner walked into the ehop , and deliberately took away & roll of butter , and placed it in his pocket . Mrs . Wilkinson immediately went to him aud ordered him to re-tore the butter , which order he , without hesitation , obeyed ; and on being given into custody and searched , a large piece of bacon was found upon him . Committed for trial .
Charge against a Policeman . —At the Court House , on Monday last , a charge was preferred against Samuel Brother ton , one of the police force , of having assaulted another of the force . It seems that Brotherton , [ finding the discharge of his duties as policeman incompatible with the state of his health , had given notice of his intention to leave the force . He , however went on duty as usual , and about twp o ' clock on Monday morning , he was brought to the police- office by Serg . Miiner and two other police officers , charged with having been intoxicated whilst on duty , and assaulted one of the police .
Iu defence , Brotherton said he had only a pint of ale , which had been } given him by some person he had frequently called up at an early hour , and which , in consequence of his weak state of health had taken effect upon him . As to the assault complained of , he was very roughly usued by Miiner and the other men , and all the violence he had used was in selfdefence . In ansjver to a question from the bench , it was stated that the defendant had , during the time he had been iu the force , borne a very good character . Under all tho circumstance ? the magistrates determined not to impose any penalty , but dismissed him from the force .
Child Burnt . —On Friday last , iii the morning , an inquest waa held at the Court House , Leeds , before John Blackburn , Esq ., borough coroner , to enquire concerning the death of Wm .

The deceased i who was fifty years of age , had only ; one arm , and earned his living by selling small wares . It seems that when he got to the top of the Btairs he missed catching bold of the railing , and fell to the bottom with such violence that the injuries he sustained caused his death a few hours afterwards . The coroner ' s jury returned a verdict of " Accidental Death . ,
Assaults . —On Tuesday , a man named Jonathan Barnett was fined by the sitting magistrates 2 & > . and costs , or one month ' s imprisonment , for assaulting a policeman whilst taking him into custody .

NOTTINGHAM . —At a ! general meeting of the workmen employed in the plain silk glove branch , held at the Shoulder of Mutton , Barker Gate , on Monday last , for the purpose ( of taking into consideration the erila under which the hands were labouring , by the enormous charges in the shape of frame rent , and other infringements . A committee was appointed , with power to add to their number , to prepare an address , setting ; forth the various impositions to which they were subjected , and calling upon those employers who are thus charging to desist from such practice , and return to the old system of frame charges . The trade are called upon to meet on Monday next , at eight o ' clock in the evening , at the above house . j
XiEIGEISTEB . Independent Ordeb of United Brothers . —Leicester Unity . —Another Lodge in connection with this Order was opened at Leicester on Monday last , whenj twenty one persons were duly initiated aad three more proposed . TODMORDEN . —Shocking Accident . —On the evening of Monday last , aj guard of a luggage train , upon the Manchester and Leeds line , was thrown down between the waggons , and the wheels
ran over bis head , and crushed it in a very shocking manner , so much so that his brains fell upon the ground . It appears that it was a long train , and there was a pilot engine behind ; and , with the first engine having the steam turned off , the one behind oaused the waggonB to come in fcontaot very forcibly , and he was thrown over the side of the waggon by that means . At an inquest held on Wednesday , a verdict of accidental death was ! returned . The unfortunate man , whose name is - | Hampson , has left a widow and two children .
BROMSGrROVE . —The trade of this totvn is in a most deplorable state . The staple trade is nail-making . The masters have reduced the men twenty per cent , and now they waut a further reduction of ten per cent ., whicn the men have all struck against , as the average wages do not amount to above 5 s . 9 d . per week , out j of which they have shop rent and tools to pay for , which is one shilling per week , leaving only 4 s . 9 d ] for a man and his family to subsist upon . The workmen parade the town evary day in large numbers , but are very peaceable . On Sunday , theyl went in procession ( about a thousand ) to Church , and some of the principal men in the town talked of forming a union to take the trade out of the iruokmasters' hands . The churchwardens and overseers called a public meeting on Monday morning , and the men went to it * but were refused admittance by the police , who were stationed at the gates ; arid when a deputation
from the working men ' s committee obtained entrance they were informed by these generous souls that if they refused working at the masters' prices , they would be refused all relief at the Union Bastile , and if they persisted in congregating together they should be taken up ! This is middle class sympathy with a vengeance . The men assembled on Monday at their usual place of meeting , when they were addressed by Mr . Wm . Clements , a nailer and a Chartist , who showed up the would-be philanthropists and gave the factions a good dressing , not forgetting the parsons , in not coming out to endeavour to gain the people their just rights . The magistrates sent for a troop of Dragoons from Birmingham Barracks , and they marched into the town about eight o ' clock on Monday night , when the town wa& all very peaceable and quiet , and not the least symptom * of disorder ; butwhei the troop marched in , the town was up in arms to know what was the matter that they were sent for , but no one could answer . i

We should jhope the statements which it contains are exaggerated j— " -Last night , a dreadful riot took place ia this town , is consequence of a quarrel between jsome of the trades lads and the soldiers ( we believe of the depot of the GBth . ) A party ef the military sallied out of the barracks , and in revenge attacked the people with swords ( query , bayonets ) and sticks , when a fearful
commotion ensued . The constables were called out , and the Provost had the | tiot Act read . The riot , however , was not quelled before the soldiers were severely beaten , and a ] number of the constables so seriously injured that they are not expected to recover ; indeed , I have heard that some of them are already dead . There are several of the soldiers in prison ; and it is skid that the military are ordered to be removed from the town , which , it is to be hoped , will take place ] without further mischief , though this is greatly feared by many people here .

The Croal Coaches . —Dublin , Mat 30 . —The neighbourhood of the Post-office was last night thronged by thousands of persons watching the departure of the Saxon coaches on their second journey , and a casual observer might ] have remarked that there waa a much stronger disposition to riot manifested among the mob than on jthe previous evening . According as the mails made their appearance they were greeted with the usual yells of execration , in consequence of which several of the horses became restive , while those drawing the Belfast mail , in their alarm , made a , violent plunge at the corner of Henrystreet , knocking down two men in the crowd , and dragging the coach over their bodies . Both men received severe injuries ; one of them expired this
morning ; but it was after all ! the mails had left that the mob seehaed determined on an cmute : and the police , it was evident , were the objects of the popular " excitement , ; " partly , it cannot be denied , from the over-zeal of the peace-preservers in restraining attempts at Jrioting by the rather frequent application of the baton to the heads and shoulders of the anti-Croalites . Retaliation , howover , quickly followed ; and fjtones of considerable magnitude were hurled indiscriminately at the po ice , one of whom , belonging to the mounted force , had his eye knocked out by a rofcsile discharged by one of the rioters ' . At length , by the interposition of Mr . Studdert ; a divisional magistrate , the mob dispersed , leaving a vast number of
their body prisoners in the hands of the police . At halt-past ten o ' clock this morning the rioters were brought before Mr . Studderjt , at Henry-street police'office , who after hearing evidence , summarily punished the prisoners by fining the bulk of them 40 s ., or one month ' s imprisonment , while others had the penalties increased to 60 s ., or two months in Newgate , the magistrate r-marking , that as the public mind was then in a very exoited state , he was determined to Tepress the spirit that was abroad by the infliction of the heaviest punishment which the law sanctioned in such cases . Many of the prisoners were mere boys , others seemed to be labouring men , aud some of the better class of artisans . —ilimes . f

Iu fact , this person could not acand at the house door but
the girls would flock about him ; aud so jealous wore they of each other , that cine of them was fined by the magistrates of this district some time mnce for scandal , arising out of this strange partiality .

REPEAL MEETING IN CLAHE . The Clare Journal , a Tory paper , gives an account of a meeting held in frost of the court-house of Ennis on Sunday , in consequent of the following notice issued on Saturday : — ' The Liberator dismissed from the commission of the peace ! I Men of Clare , now is the day and aow is the hour . The work of Ireland ' s freedom must begin where the foundation stone of her regeneration was laid , in Clare—glorious Clare . Clare men ! born- slaves , bat determined to ha free I Meet at two o ' clock to-morrovr ( Sunday ) the 28 th May , in High-street . " The Clare Journal states that there was an immense assemblage at the hour appointed : — ^
Mr . Charles O'Connbll addressed the meeting at some length , and with considerable effect . He said the government had dismissed the Liberator from the commission of the peace , which was only an incumbrance to him , ' they deprived themselrej of tha aid of an intelligent and pacifying magistrate , and to vex their faces they cut off their noses—( laughter ) He had a most gratifying fact [ to tell the meeting . Mr . John M'Namara , a most respectable man and intelligent magistrate , declared to him that the moment he heard of a magistrate dismissed for attending a repeal meeting , that moment be would send up his subscription to the Corn Exchange . Tne government had other irons in the firo which wanted more serious attention- There wa 3 the Scotch presbyterian question ; the Chartist proceedings , and other dificulties ; but the base , rancorous , and bigotted crew determined to operate on Ireland
alone , as far as coercion was concerned . He concluded by moving the following resolution : — "That our best thanks are hereby given to his Grace the Duke of Wellington and Sir IL Peel , for the energetio measures they have taken to secure to us a repeal of the parchment union ; and that we do assure those wise statesmen , that for every magistrate they dismiss for declaring , their opinions upon an odious act of Parliament in a free country , they add 30 , 000 determined repealers to ovur ranks . " The Rev . Daniel Lynch appeared amidst loud cheers , and said , although he spoke of the baneful effects of the union in the Old Chapel on last week , still he could not resist the temptation that now presented itself . In the spot where they now stood they achieved Catholic Emancipation , and there , with the blessing of God , they would effect the repeal ofthe union—( loud cheers . )
The Rev . Mr . Hennesst then came forward and complimented Tipperary on the glorious reception given to the Liberator there . The straggle of 1828 was still fresh in their recollection , and Clare would not be Clare if she did not make a grand display on ibe 15 th of June . He impressed on them all the necessity of having their contributions ready when called for ; and concluded a short but energetic speech , by calling for three cheers for the Queen , three cheers for the Repeal of the Union , and three for O'Connell , which was responded to by every one present . The meeting then separated in a peaceable and orderly manner .

It is said that their present destination is Mullingar . —Manchester Guardian . The Evening Post statO 3 that two- brigades of the Guards , are under orders of readiness tor Ireland . No period has yet been fixed for their departure . It is stated that two armed steam-vessels , the Cyclops and Rhadamanthus , have been ordered for service on the Iriah coast during the imaginary insurrection . They are , it is said , to bring over largo supplies of military stores . All this only serves to accelerate the Repeal agitation .
