The Dublin Evening Post of Saturday contains the following : Dublin Evening Post Mee, Halfirast Three o'Clock. Just u we were going to Press, we received the fol lowing communication from respectable authorities: " APPREHENSION OF AN ARMED BAND.-On Wednesday last, twelve men who were' apprehended in the county of Limerick on the previous night, all armed, were escorted into the city of Limerick, chained to each other, and lodged in jail. Seven others, taken the same night, were also committed., The jail is full of prisoners." Thursday night, the stores of Messrs. Pitswortrif, near Mollingar, with a considerable quantity of goods, were burned to the ground. It is feared the fire was occasioned by incendiai MILL.STRRET, COUNTY OF CORK. A great body of men proceeded to the village of Donotiahmore, and attacked the house of the Clergy man, who had deposited with him for safety most of the arms of the Parish, amounting to 66 stand; they sot fire to his house, and obliged him to give them up, and then helped to extinguish the fire, as they only wanted the arms. They were so numerous as to say they would march to Kanturk (the military post of the neighbourhood), and give battle to the military if they opposed them. Their numbers are stated at 700 men. The Cork Papers of Thursday do not mention this last circumstance, which renders it improbable. The Freeman's Journal of Monday says that Mr. &KILBURN was expected in Dublin on the following day. and that the Marquis WELLE.LEY was expected to arrive on Friday or Saturday at the latest. The following are additional particulars respecting the murder of Mr. Wiwi, an account of which ap peared in the STAR of Monday: " As HENRY WILEY and WILLIAM WILEY were returning on Tuesday evening, about seven o'clock, from the fair of Longwood, to their father's house at Cullestragh, they observed a body of men, about 20 in - number, standing at a little distance before them upon the road, and upon coming nearer, two of the men advanced out of the crowd and passed thetwo WILEYS, who bade them good night, but received no answer. —The WILIER then passed through the main body, but had not proceeded far, when the men began to whistle with their fingers, and instantly pursued them. Hiwav WILEY observed to his brother, " There is something in this." " Do you take the fields," WIL LIAM answered, 46 and I'll keep the road, what ever chance I have, you have none." They accordingly parted, and WILLIAM was found nest Morning with his head literally severed from his body by a razor he had in his own pocket, and which he had that day bought at the fair. A shovel was also found near the body , broke n in several p ieces,' and with which his head had been split in two.— A most respectable Jury, in the presence of Major 0111 , ittoonus, found it " Wilful Murder against Mi chael Paine, and others." Paine has been-appre hended, and it now committed' by the Ccironer to abide his trial.—A younger brother of the IWlLzys was a witness in the case of Mr, Cantais minder. Lord BYRON, In the Notts to his new Tragedy The Two Foam* just published, pays a high compliment to Lady MORGAN, whose Italy he styles " a fearless and excellent work." His Lordship also acknow ledges a curious coincidence between Lady MORGAN and himself, in their both having called Venice " Some of the Ocean," though their Works at the time were unknown to each other. In the brilliancy of the sun of 'Sunday last, the idea of Winter was quite lost ; no May Day could be brighter, milder, or more cheering to the spirits. Sir ANTHONY CARLISLE attended on Monday even ing to deliver his concluding Lecture on Anatomy, but was prevented completing it by a most disgrace ful scene which took place. A mob of persons as semoledearly, under the aschway, at Somerset House, and endeavoured to gain admission by forcible means. The confusion which took place in consequence pie vented the access of many of the Members. Sir AN THONY declared that he considered the conduct of the visitors an insult to the Royal Academy, as well as to himself. It was particularly unfortunate for the students; it prevented the possibility of bis displaying the actions of the muscles upon living figures, as he had intended. The Professor disclaimed all know ledge of the means by which so large a number of tickets were procured by the visitors. The Lecture, l in consequence, was materially curtailed. Sir T. LAWIENCS was in the Chair. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. BOXING AT MOULSRY HURST. A full day's play, anticipant' by the lovers of frolic, was yesterday realized, with lent, pf by_.play. The attraction was between Sampson, the ant Youth. and Ake, who so lately beat Oliver ' when wane hidden qualities were displayed, to the satisfaction of seine of the most learned of the cognewnitL Both men had riven proofs of goodness in fornwr The seconds were, Randall and Tom Janes, for Sampson ; and Spring and Shelto n, for Abbot ; and betting was live to four on Sampson. The Gas-figet Malt was on the 'round, lured twig. ROUND 1. Sampson made the play. but he failed in placing his straight hits. 10 a rally both were down. 11. A very gallant fi ghting round to the advantage of Abbot, who stood like an oak tree, and received all the punishment his adversary could give him like a game one. He bad the best of it, by throwing his adversary in a trial of strength.—Even on Abbot. 5. Sampson went in as game as ever the dog Trusty fought his battles, but he met with a Chalk Faris bred one, who would not be denied. It was a round where merry bad no balance ; it was " You give, and 111 take," and Abbot had the best or a very manly rally. Sampson received a heavy hit upon the eye in going down. 4. Abbot began to get :wetly upon himself, finding he amid stop his adversary's flush bitting, and a very gay round was fought, and much earnestness shewn. Sampson had rather the best of the bitting and got the throw. 5. Sampson made pby, and floored his adversary. 6. There was no visible on the man, but Rue min and Sisos's grew were in requisition among the pa rtisans. Abbot had none the worst of the round, although est-fought at in-fighting, and be was thrown. 7. Abbot bad the best of as pliant a Sgbdng round as ever was seen. Sampson made the play with fine hitting, but Abbot was the stem English oak tree, and had the best of it, although thrown.-.-Four to 1 on Abbot, and Randall, in full confidence, took the said odds. _ I. Sampson in going in received a severe bit oo the left eye, which taanceried his upper works. It was on the brow, and the clone that oozed from it was a dead bilk upon the surgeon, who bad no occasion for operating. The light was won in this round. It was evident that Sampson's fast fighting was put aside, front Abbot being the best giver and a negative takes. 9. A confirmation of the opinion of the best judges was, that in this round Sampson was hit off his legs by a tremendous right-handed blow.—The pou9clage on Abbot. The fight was protracted to the 32d round, and the gameness of Sampson often gave it a temporary turn, and he had nearly dosed one of his adversary's beads; bus there was anything but No about him, and Abbot was declared the victor by a flooring hit in a fi ght of forty-seven minutes and a half, when each head came in contact, by a fall from a close, and left Sampson deaf to the call " Time." Oss AAAAA Abbot is °sly a half-bred one, as be is termed, yet it will take nothing else but a very good man and a heavy hitter to beat him. In no single round had Sampson the best of it, although he exerted himself to the utmost to obtain the smiles of victory. It is rather singular to state. that except with Dolly Smith, the Birmingham Youth has lost every battle, whilst, on she contrary, conquest has crowned the efforts of Ab bot in every combat. The latter possesses a tolerable knowledge of the science, and left the ring with only a mark under his le ft eye. The B irmingham Youth was severely punished. The above battle bad not been over a minute, when measly the whole of the Farley were beat to a stand-still ; except a few who endeavoured to bolt. but who nevertheless could not get away from the effects of the " pitiless, pelting storm" A few sunawr cabbala were hoisted as temporary screw: but it was only like laughing at the inat,er; and the gusts of Oki Bone= were so violent as to dispossess their proprietors of this momen tary relief. Hundreds were seen scampering to get ander the waggons to avoid the hail-stones, and flowing each other only to obtain half an inch of shelter: lots looked like drowning rats, their clothes sticking to their bodies, as if they had been pasted no, while a few of the Consatkians in post-chalses, were laughing at the ludicrous scene, and blessing their happier stars, at the" comfort and advantages derived from the possession of the blunt. But at length the Fancy rallied, 'hewed game, and Brows and Looney were called upon to fight for the stakes of £ l / 2 23 wide, " Never mind," said an old crweg from Kent-street, 0 don't y' see—it is nothing when you are used to it—you can't be 'simperer if you were dipped into the Thames, and we have one good edge left, if this should prove a long fight—as the wind is high, we shall get dry before we leave the Hurst, without quenching to get at the fire-side in Hamptoo." Luxor AND Baown.—The amateurs now stood up like bricks and mortar, to witness a tedious fight between little Lenney and young Brown, (the Sprig of Myrtle, and son of hopping Ned,) with alternate rounds in each mimes favour, and which, after all their patience, ended in a wrangle, from a foul blow, and the battle was decided for Leaner. Both of.these little ones were LAW INTELLIGENCE. 4 COURT OF KING'S BENCH, DECEMBER Is. NORRIS V. WARDEN AND OTHERS. This was an action for assault and false imprison asent.—The plaintiff had been a tradesman at Sa ury, in Wiltshire,. and was declared a banltrupt, the defendants, attornies of that city, were- ap pointed Commissioners to open the Commission, and upon the plaintiff's third examination, hav ing given, as was alleged, unsatisfactory answers touching bis affairs, he was committed to prison. He was afterwards brought up to London by Habeas Corpus, and discharged, after two months confine ment, and this action was brought to recover a com pensation in damage: for the nnprisonment, the' plaintiff having given an undertaking to give mate rial evidence in the county of Middlesex. There being nothing to prove that the defendants had done anything in the county of Middlesex, and therefore shewing that the cause of action arose therein, Mr. ScaeLarr, for the defendants, submitted that the venue ought to have been laid in Wilts, and not in Middlesex, and, consequently, that the plaintiff must be nonsuited, not having conformed to the under taking abovementiened. He fouroled the objection upon a case which had been recently decided under the like circumstances. Mr. MARRYATT was heard in answer to the ob jection; but The LORD CKIEP JUSTICE was of opinion that the objection was insuperable, and therefore directed the plaintiff to be nonsuited. JONES, ESQ. V. BIRD AND OTHERS. This was an action on the case, to recover a com pensation in damages, for an injury done by the de fendants, acting under the Commissioners of Sewers, to the plaintiff's reversionary interest in a house situate in Clement's Inn-passage, in the Parish of St. Cle ment Danes. The plaintiff was landlord of a house situate in Clement's Inn-passage, and the defendants were bricklayers employed under the Commissioners of Sewers for the District, to repair a main sewer, under the passage in question, which bad fallen into decay; and it was alleged that the defendants had excavated under the plaintiff's house, without taking the neces sary steps to prevent the mischief (,f %%Inch he com plained, by means whereof the house had fallen to the ground. The substantive issue in the cause was, whether the defendants had been guilty of any care lessness or negligence in the performance of the work which they had undertaken ? Witnesses were examined on both sides, and after several hours were consumed, The Jury, under the Learned Judge's direction, found`their verdict for the plaintiff—Damages £175, COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, DECEMBER is. SHIP REPAIRSGABIN AND ANOTHER V. KREUDER. Mr. Serjeant VAUGHAN stated the case. He said, this was an action brought by the plaintiffs, Messrs. Gavin and Williams, ofleith, against the defendant, Charles Kreuder, for the recovery of £1,460, for the repairs of a Swedish ship, which was driven upon the coast of Scotland, in 1812, by stress of weather.— The Jury were aware, that, for the obvious benefit of the owners, the Captain of a ship was entitled to commit the responsibility of his owners for all neces sary repairs. The exigency of the case always justi fied this course. Indeed, by the civil law, the ship itself was held liable for repairs; but by the general law of the land, the Captain, as well as the owners, were liable, unless the creditors gave the Captain a full acquittal at the time. The reason why this ac tion had not been brought sooner was, that the Cap tain had been mostly abroad,. and the plaintiffs hall therefore no opportunity of earlier holding the Cap tain to his responsibility. The repairs of the ship, in sails, cordage, and masts, to the amount stated by the Learned Serjeant, were proved in evidence. The ship was represented as having been nearly a complete wreck at the time. Mr. Serjeant HULLOCK lamented, for the honour of Scotland, that so slovenly a case as this had been got up in that country; and he also begged leave to dispute the law laid down by his Learned Friend. He apprehended the law to be this: that where the Captain ordered repairs, owing to the exigency of tho case, he, of course, incurred a liability, and com mitted his owners; but he must deny that the Cap. tain could not be exonerated without a specific ac quittal : on the contrary, ever since the time of Lord Mansfield, it had been held, that where the creditor did not take from the Captain a direct acknowledge ment for the debt, but relied on the responsibility of others, he must stand by his election, and fail as against the Captain. Now in this case, he would kkarly prove that the plaintiffs gave the credit to a house in Liverpool exclusively, and had therefore no claim whatever against the Master of the ship, even ;though they had ultimately failed to recover from 'the house which they had credited. The Learned Serjeant then put in several letters and depositions, which were admitted, and which went to skew that the repairs were done on the credit of Messrs. Dixon and Co. of Liverpool, who had cor responded with the plaintiffs upon the subject of the repairs, and not executed them until they agreed with Dixon and Co. upon the prices ; and to the latter they I actually transmitted a bill at sir months, for accept ance, which they received back duly honoured from Liverpool. Mr. Serjeant Vacettan, in reply, contended that the correspondence with Dixon and Co. did not ex clude the lien which the plaintiffs still held upon the Captain, who had given the order for the repairs. The Jury found a verdict fur the defendant. severely punhhed. Andoick (the black) and Atom were left milling in the dark. SHOOTING. Sir HAIRY FIATIMISTONIHAVOR has been entertaining a select party of Noblemen and Gentlemen, at Up-Park, who, in four mornings, brought nearly 1,000 bead of game to bag, from sit guns.

He was bringing up his tail bounds (mounted on one of the best horses in his Lordship's stud), and when they came to a fence, the bone unfortunately made a slip, and both of them tumbled aver. On the horse rising, the man's foot being caught in the stirrup, he fell on hint a second time, which broke his suck in a dreadful manner. His Lordship an d the sportsmen, who were in full chace, immedi ately stopped to render Mai every assistance in their power-- some by riding in every direction for medical assistance, and others by getting a gate, on which they laid the poor fellow; each of them taking his part in carrying him to his own house, a distance of nearly two miles. Every •attention has been paid w him by his Lor dship and the Gentlemen, and be is in a fair way of recovery. A singular occurrence happened on Tuesday we:might :—As Mr. Snow's barriers were running a bare on Mill Down, Dor chester, they took after a monkey, which had escaped from its place of confinement. After being followed by the dogs over most of the garden walls, and entering the back premises of the houses in Salisbury-street and Bryanstone-street the monkey was safely secured without injury, and the timid hare made a fortunate retreat.
