But we have received Irons our Will correspondent the details of a transaction that must excite in the bosom of every Englishman, commiseration towards the unhappy Protestants who continue to be, as it were, the sport of a barbarian horde cf semi.savages, and a tyrannical, cunning, and turbulent Priesthood. Our correspondent writes, hat should the public execration towards the perpetrators of this vile outrage demand the name of the Clergyman who has been the object of an attsck, worthy of the blind hatred of jacobites. and the mad fury of a jacquery, that he will communicate all the particulars, verified on the affidavit of one of the most respectable and peaceable Ministers of the Established Church in Ireland- Oa Sunday the 30th of November, the Clergyman above alluded to received notice from one of his Pro testant parishioners to attend at three o'clock in the afternoon, to perform Divine service over the body of his deceased uncle, at a particular chor', which was the burying ground of the family of the deceased, who had frequently expressed a wish to his nephew to be buried there according to the rites of the Protestant Church. The Clergyman attended at the appointed hour ; the coffin was carried into the Church, iss order that the Desk-service, as it is termed, might be read, which was accordingly done without the least disturbance. The corpse was then carried out and laid in the grave, but the Clergyman had scarcely begun to, read the prayers over it, when a violent tumult commenced, evidently for the purpose of preventing him from continuing the , service. The noise and tumult were so well directed and organized, that in a few moments he was unable to hear even the sound of his own voice. Immediately stones were hurled into the grave with savage violence; and one stone, or rather rock, was of such a size that bad pot the coffin been much stronger than those com monly made it would bred been broken in pieces, and deposed to the relatives of the deceased and the sur rounding multitude the mangled body. The Clergy man still endeavoured to proceed, an universal shout was raised, 8 , Boys, here is a fine heap of stones, let as make use of them." At this moment the Protes tant parishioners of the Clergvna.n :astounded him, and forced him from this savage scene, as it was evidently intended to molder him, if he presumed to read the prayers of the Protestant Church in the presence of a Popish multitude, when they bad exhibited their dis pleasure to these heretic words. We beg to call the particular attention of the British public to some circumstances connected with this fiendish assault. When the coffin was brought into the church, that the part of the service which the rubric orders should be then read, not the least corfusion arose.— And why? The law has provided a punishment for any interruption of Divine Service inside the church. And why was the riot commenced wisp the coffin was lowered into the grave? because the law has not specified soy punishment for an interruption outside the walls of the Church. Thus it is evident the lawyer had taught the Priest. and the Priest instructed the people, how they midst be savages w ithout breaking the law ; and, though offending against religion, decency, and order, they might exhibit their detestation of Protestantism without incurring punishment or endangering themselves. - We shall net add another word.

The Spanish squadron has been taking in provisions at Santiago de Cuba, with the intention of proceeding to invade Yucatan. This information was received at Vera Cruz from the Authorities at Yucatan. A ball took place at Vera Crux on the 4th November, to celebrate the capture of Perote, which SAIrtA ANNA bad aban doned. On the 24th of October SANTA Anna addressed a letter to Colonel LZON, inviting him to second his enterprise: his letter is dated from Tehucan. He states that the force he brought with him from Perote amounts to 800 infantry, 300 cavalry, and six pieces of artillery, and that be made this movement in consequence of the advice of his party at Mexico.

We have a number of arrivals this morning, as a Mail from Vera Crux, of the sth of November—from Lisbon to the 14th of December—and Halifax to the 4th of December.

THE LATE SURGICAL 71110 M 7112 MEDICAL GAM?, or SAW/MEAT LAM COC•PER V. VfAICELIT. " The result of the trial has been all that we anticipated with re.. geed to Mr. Cooper, and more, much more than we bad conceived possible with regard to the exposure of the Latest. We ha* beard it said and we believe it to be the general feeling, that the amount of damages ought to have been larger. But this depends entirely upon the light in which the subject is viewed. If the damages be considered either as a recompense to Mr. Cooper or as a punish ment to his traducer, then they ate in either case deficient indeed; but, if they be regarded, ai they ought to be, merely as marking the opinion of the Jury as to the falsehood and malice of the libel, then they must be considered as amply sufficient ; for Juries are utterly incapable of estimating the value of professional character, while they are so extremely jealous of the liberty of the press, that they seldom gl4e more than nominal damages, and never any thing like the present amount, except in cases of the most flagrant descrip tion. Besides which, the Judge expressly charged the Jury not to give damages according to their indignation, but merely such as should dispassionately mark their sense of the libel. " The triumph of truth and honour over falsehood and disho nour has, therefore, in our opinion, been complete, and the pro fession is under deep obligation to Mr. Cooper for the bold, manly. and uncompromising manner in which he has come forward to vindicate his reputation, and drag the secret slanderer of himself and of his brethren from the dark recesses of his infamy. " By every impartial man acquainted with the subject Mr. Cooper will be regarded es brain suet with one of those difficult and perplexing eases where the efforts of the most expert and skilful surgeons are not always crowned with success till after much anxiety and delay—an anxiety so great to sensitive minds, that Cheselden, the most successful and celebrated lithotomiu this country ever produced. tells us, that he used to feel it' even to sickness'—and delay sometimes so unavoidable, that John Hunter and Mr. Cline and Sir Astley Cooper have all bad patients en the table for a NIG& longer period than in the present instance—nay, an anxiety and delay so great, that they have been known to un nerve some of the most experienced and skilful men in the profes sion, having on one occasion caused Mr. Abernethy to ask another surgeon to finish an operation of lithotorny which he Memel( was unable to complete. Yet his competency has never been questioned.' " To all reflecting men it must be matter of serious apprehension to think what the consequences may be, if the difficulties and fearful responsibility attending capital operations are to be yet further increased by the consciousness on the part of the surgeon, that there are present those who. instead of participating in his anxious efforts, gloat with fiendish delight on his embarrassment. ready to caricature, to exaggerate, and to pervert. " The character of Mr. Cooper has been subjected to the severest scrutiny, and the result has proved, beyond the possibility of doubt, not only his general skill as a surgeon, but his dexterity as an ope rator; several competent judges having sworn, that they bad he. queenly seen him perform not only lithotomy but some of tbs ease most difficult operations in an ' admirable' manner. " From this we turn to a more grateful subject—the generous sympathy in Mr. Cooper% feelings which has been evinced by the students in the Borough, who have announced their intention to pre sent him with a piece of plate. The idea is alike honourable to their hearts and heads ; and in after life, when they enter upon the duties of their profession, and the hour of their own difficulties shall come —come it must to almost every man in our most useful but imper fect art, we trust that they will not be so cruelly treated as their teacher has been. but that the publication which now disgraces the profession shall ere then have ceased to exist ; and they that may meet with less malicious and more candid critics. who, if they • nu thine extenuate,' at least will set down nought in malice."
