Vrvis o'eteest This day t , r a highly respectable Meeting rf No bility, Gen y, an d Cle rgy , too k place i the a the Court House, Kilmainham. At twelve o'clock the IIICH SUERIFF took the Chair, and briefly stated the object and nature of the Meeting, which he said was called by a numerous and highly respectable number of Gentlemen, in or der to vote an Address to the Lord Lieutenant, con gratulating his Excellency on his escape from the late oierage. He hoped the fleeting would be con ducted with decorum, and an absence of every offen sive and irritable topic, so as to preserve harmony and concord throughout the entire proceedings. Mr, O'NEAL proposed two Resolutions, the first stated, with regret, that a disgraceful outrage was comtnitted upon his Excellency, which was to be de precated by all classes, and highly degrading to the character of the Capital. The second, that from the printed papers circulated through the house on the eight of the above outrage, whether it did not afford sufficient ground of a premeditated attack on his Ex cellency's conduct, from the missile weapon thrown, which, had it succeeded, would have proved fatal to his Excellency. Mr. GooLo spoke in favour of the Resolutions. The Ilion SHERIFF objected to putting theseße solutions with the strong words Conspiracy to take away his Excellency's life." He feared it would be straying from the Requisition. • Mr. LUKE WHITE, Mr. LUKE PLUNKETT, and Mr. ENEAS MAC DONNELL, spoke as to the constitutional propriety of the High Sheriff's putting the Resolu tiOns.— Mr. HAMILTON, jun. opposed ahem. The Resolution passed, with only three Noes to the general acclamation. Counsellor BURNE proposed three Resolutions, se-' conded by Lord CLoNcunity, which gave rise to• a lengthened and warm debate. The Learned Gentle man was supported by Lord CcoacultßY, Mr. MUL LEN, Capt. FOTTEREL, Mr. O'NEIL, Mr. OCONNELL. The Rev. E. Twit Gneootry warmly supported the Sheriff in his privilege tq,oppose the passing of the Resolutions. Messrs.HUSlrfilllES, MITCHELL, and Evass, sup ported Mr. Bonsta's motion. ..• WHITE, seconded by Baron ROEBUCK, Isropcfsed that a Committee he formed to frame an Address to his Excellency, founded upon the Resolu tions. The following were named for _this purpose: Col. White, Baron Roebuck, the HighSberiff, Rev. Mr. Hamilton, Mr. O'Connell, Lord Clondurry. Luke White, Mr. serne, George Evans,' and Mr. O'Neil, who mottled with the Address,. which was read and agreed 'lb. Thanks were then voted to Mr. JosixstoN for his intrepid conduct at the Theatre, on the night of the outrage. . Lord CLOD CURRY was moved into the chair, who stated, that his station this day was different frOttir their list Meeting (laughter.) He mooed the thanks . of the Meeting to the Chairman, which . passed, amidst ,great acclamation. • Mr. 0 . -Comm.', eulogised the Chairman, and re plied to the Rev. Mr. GREGORY in a very humorous strain.---The Meeting then separated. The Meeting did not conclude until four o'clock this evening. We regret to be obliged to state, that the accounts from the interior mention that various outrages have been committed lately by the Whiteboys. CORK.—Last Sunday morning, between the hours of one and two o'clock, a numerous body of White boys, some of them armed, set on fire a• haggard, and consumed three stacks of corn and a quantity of hay, the property of Daniel Sullivan, a Proctor, re siding in the parish of Glenville, within eight miles of Cork. The ruffians then repaired to Sullivan's house, dragged him out of bed, and swore him not to proceed on any of the processes which had been served for the recovery of tithes at the Sessions. While in the house they loaded five muskets, and obliged Sullivan's wife to hold a candle for them during the time. They afterwards went to the house. of another farmer, named Joyce, where the sup posed tithe corn was deposited, and swum him to the fact. The man's denial alone saved the haggard from destruction. They took away a horse from another man, who had it published at the Chapel, in the neighbourhood, and it was shortly after returned. Extract of a letter from Kildare Saturday morning last, between two and three o'clock, A.M. a patty of armed ruffians attacked Turf Hall, on the west side of the Curragh, the residence of Robert Hunter, Esq. They took out a large pane of glass in the drawing-room window, and by such means got at the shutters, which they cut with a sharp in strument, exactly opposite to the fastening of the bolt ; but after a fruitless attempt there, they mis carried, and did not get in. They then got on the iron gate, and proceeded on the wall until they made their way to the side of the roof of the house, and walked twelve yards along the side thatch, which they snipped exactly on the granary, over the kitchen and a 'room where two maid-servants were sleeping in. A terrier dog, who was below, hearing the noise of entering, barked so as to awaken the servant maids, and, on apprising their master, he rushed out in his shirt. They got the alarm and were scam pering off, when he fired a shot at the robbers, one of whom screamed dreadfully ; but on Mr. Hunter's going in to reload, the ruffians all made their escape. It is worthy of notice that Mr. Hunter had no person in the house but the two maids, and had "arrived that evening from Dublin. It is supposed the tobbers ex- Tected he had money. On Sunday morning, the sth instant, a party of freebooters attacked and entered the house of Mr. Kelly, on the road front Me to Kildare. They took away everything, even to the shirt he had left 03t to air ; and as they also carried off the clothes of hit servant, neither of them could follow the robbers." • 'Sorts mutts went.—The wile, of North Shields, Captain Smiev, from Pictou to I lull, on the Inth December: a tre-1 znendous sea broke on hoard, and carried away the boats, bul warks, mils, Bce. and washed a boy overboard, who was drowned. —Ship Seine, Captain W. ..

The game-keeper, JIiNNINGS, called out to them to surrender—they refused—he sprang for ward, and with the butt end of his gun knocked one of them 'down. The two assistants now came up, and a very hard - fight ensued, each party using the butt end of their guns: The keepers had the hest of it, and the poachers were übliged to make off, evidently much punished; the keepers hid also received several severe contusions, especially Jeasuses; he was terribly beaten about the head, and is not yet able to leave his bed.

Towards the clove of the afternoon, his father found his cart (which he had left laden; and supported in the customary manner by two small poles fastened under the shafts) had been pulled backwards. He requested a neighbour who was passing, to assist him in restoring it to its equi librium. On beginning ' to raise it, the person assist ing Olphin saw the boy, and said, a child was under the cart, when his father, in a paroxysm of grief, im mediately exclaimed "My boy is kifled r It appears that the "little fellow was swinging himself by I:is hands at the tail of the cart, which being laden in such a manner, that a small additional weight,either behind or in front, would bear it down, fell upon him, • and instantaneously crushed him to death.
