DISTURBANCES IN IRELAND. FROM THE DUBLIN JOURNAL OF MONDAY. 're intelligence received this morning from the is very alarming, and the catalogue of crimes „ r have to mord, frightful. COL'STY OF CORK. In the County of Cork the insurgents attacked the of :t party of Police stationed at Churchtown, tr Doric: aile, on doe 31st ult. They shot the sen ti,,el and set fire to the house, which was thatched. •r ; e Police, sixteen in number, defended themselves T% it h the greatest bravery, but they were overpowered. _ your were kill e d, e l ev en wounded, and only one e , caped without injury. The insurgents finally re treated with sixteen muskets, ten swords, and six, pistols, after bur ning the stable of the Police, in which five or six horses were destroyed. It is said that the banditti dearly bought this victory, but they carried of their dead and wounded. if a search v:ere made in that neighbourhood, the wounded men p l :ght be found and brought to punishment. 'Coe .Fraernan's Journal of Tuesday, on the autho rity of a letter from Charleville, states, that two of the police were killed, one missing, supposed to be killed; five wounded, three severely, having broken ar ms. Five horses were burnt in the stable. After this work of horror was completed, the air resounded for some time with shouts of'triumph. A I:tier the Cork Southern Reporter, signed T. n a vy oit, asserts that four of the police were killed, that tic Chief Constable had both his arms broken, a nd tit f: c‘ery one of the officers were wounded, ex cc,t (-;:e. The police fought until The roof of the began to fall upon them c : ,enal houses in the North Liberties of the city were broken into on Tuesday and robbed of r -Aims—near the Waterfall they got ten stand. Se- veral stand of arms have been given up at Macroorn a n.! New market—the muskets taken from the Kerry cad) are also surrendered to Mr. Harding, and *eve. na l ,• the peasantry have come in and taken the oath c f ; ;;:ceiance ; a man named Cronin is apprehended fir, burning Mr. Barry's house. T-I:r•day morning, the house of )lr. J. Buckly, r e3 i -r,:table farmer at Kilnap, about a mile from Cork, Iva , attacked by three fellows, who, obtaining arms, retired ithout doing any further violence. COUNTY OF LIMERICK. In the county of Limerick, the banditti are com- 1 r.:i:ting horrible atrocities. On the night of the 31st, . party attacked the house of Major HA RR, of Mont henry, near Rathkeale. They proceeded to the Ma jot-% bid-room, and it is supposed that he had made lesistance. They shot him through the body, across to chest—the ball entering the right side and passing cut at the left, it killed him on the spot. Major HA RE has left a wile with a large family to deplore his fate. A Coroner's Inquest was held on the body, when they found a verdict—" That Major HART came to Lis death in consequence of a gun-shot wound re aired across the breast, from an armed banditti, who attacked his house on the 31st of January." Monday and Tuesday last, several small parties of the 40th Regiment, in marching to different canton ments in the county of Limerick, were deprived of thirteen muskets, a halbert, and sword, with all their ammunition. Seven fellows, concerned in seizing the arms of four soldiers at Ballyagran, base been identi fied and committed to Limerick jail. Four men of the 40th Regiment, who were left at G:anduff to give up the barracks, were surprised on Tu,:sday morning. While two were carrying the tiallitere up to Glanduff House, a party rushed in suddenly, and overpowering those left in the bar tack,, tot clear Off with the entire of their arms, am -111111.i:ion, and accoutrements. Monday, a Policeman was deprived of his carbine ' as he wis going from Kilmedy to Newcastle. About six o'clock on Thursday evening, as GEORGE MAssy, Esq. of Glenwilliam, was on his return from Newcastle, he was fired at from near a house at Odellville, by an assassin, who could not be more than four or five yards distant. Mr. MASSY happily cscai.ed uninjured. A party of Whiteboys went into Drumcolliher on Tuesday night; they attacked several houses and suc ceeded in getting twelve stand of arms from dif ferent irhabitants of the town. At the house of Mr. Milli= Langford, the insurgents got a considerable qua%tity of fire-arms which were deposited there for :tfety by several Gentlemen, after the sudden de- Farture of the army from that town. A party of fellows went to Willmount in the Liber ties of Limerick on Monday night, and left a notice that the Steward there should be forthwith discharged. Wednesday night, a large party attacked the house of EDWARD SHEEHY, Esq. of Rallintubber, when they succeeded (in consequence of Mr. SnEeny, who beat them away before, being in Cork) in obtaining arms. Wednesday, at two o clock in the day, three men in women's apparel, went into a field at Dohile, near Rathkeale, and shot a horse engaged in ploughing belonging to a farmer named Scully; the three fel lows announced themselves as Lady Rock and her suite, and mentioned that if Scully did not leave the cfaintry they would serve him as they had done Isis Ilnrse. The house of James Neal on the Fair Hill of was visited by a party of insurgents (some in women's clothes,) who threatened him with de .t:uction if the terms proposed by them were not con : .rmed to; the party was all armed. Thursday night, as Lieutenant l'utev was patroling v.ith a small party of the 42d Regiment from New. castle, he ca ne up with a body of the insurgents near Camas, who, on seeing the military, fled in different directions through the fields;—the soldiers fir ed but .::ilhout effect. Soon after, those misguided wretches began sounding horns and fired a shot, Thursday night, the house of Mr. PA RIC ER, a farmer residing near Clarina-bridge, in the county of Lime rick, and about five miles from this city, was attacked by a numerous party of ruffians, with fire-arms and (alter weapons : he was dreadfully beat, and also three men who were inmates. The cause was having taken a small farm, although it had been given up by the former occupier. Ihnisday night, Mr. HASTIN6S, an apprentice of sur. A ccm Militant, of Ratlikeale, was fired at by a 1.1111.111 whilst passing through a lane ; the ball passed ti,:‘,l:gb his hat, and fortunately did not accomplish tic dv,ign of the aisassin, who was accompanied by a ...ecnnd man, both disguised. It is supposed the shot w.is intended for Nlagistrate is that town. TIIoXIAS CALLAGIIAS,htiChiEIan W W. R.YIEDIXO, .

I In Kerry the Whiteboys were very busy in search ing for arms, on Thursday night, in the line of country between Tralee, Castle Island. Maglass, and O'Brenan. COUNTY Or TIPPERARY. Wednesday evening, as three persons were serving processes for tithes in the parish of Ballybeacon, they were pursued by some fellows with their faces black ened, who, overtaking one of them, obliged him to eat thirteen of said processes, being all in his posses sion ; the others were followed to Kilgrongey, where they took shelter. The same night, about ten o'clock, the sentinel tf the 3d Light Dragoons (a small party of which has remained in charge of the heavy baggage of that regiment since it marched last October from Caher to the County of Limerick), heard some men'talkin r ,o outside the barrack wall, and saying, that as the Lancers had . gone, it was a good time to get into the barrack. In a short time afterwards, two men made their appearance on the walls, when one sentinel fired at them, and another snapped his piece, and the two men who had appeared on the walls withdrew, as well as from fifteen to twenty other persons who, it is said, were outside one of the gates. Tuesday night, at twelve o'clock, the house of Edward Triggs, of Gurtrencan, within two miles of the town of Tipperary, was attacked by an armed party, five of whom entered and demanded fire-arms ; Triggs assured them he had none, when one of the party cocked a blunderbuss, and swore he would shoot him if he did not give them up. Triggs imme diately seized the villain, and after a elesperate struggle, succeeded i.i wresting the blunderbuss front him. In the . meani:nre, a servant-man of Trigg's,' named John Cahill, aided by the women of the house, completely cleared it. of the other five, who ed two silo s. Triggs, Cahill, end one of the wo men are wounded. COUNTY OF KILKENNY. For some nights past large parties of midni;ht rob- ' bers have been seen in the vicinity of Nine-mile Mese. On Friday, about half-past three o'clock, a detachment of them made a descent on Killemry, in the county of Kilkenny : three entered the house of Mr. Patrick Phelan ' at the same place, knocked down Mrs. Phelan with their blunderbusses, locked up Mul cahy, servant, in a room by himself, and robbed the house of a, gun, a bayonet, a sword, ten sovereigns in gold, and some plate. COUNTY OF WATERFORD. We have iecived, from a vat iety of sources of in formation, the gratifying intelligence that the county of Waterford continues ;a a state of entire tranquil lity. No less than 98 stand of arms, consisting of guns, blunderbusses, and pistols, have been volunta rily given up to J. D. Langley. DUBLIN. FROM THE FREESIAS'S JOURNAL. OF TUESDAY. Saturday morning, about three o'clock, the house of Michael Haig, %%lit) is Steward to a Gentleman at Balgaddy, was entered by eight wen, who, after de stroying every article on the premises, set the house on 6re, which was burnt to the ground. They also stabbed a cow and calf; and burnt about 20 barrels of oats. A carpenter, of the name of Daniel, who, when the flames were at their height, exclaimed— Here I am, Captain Rock F' has been taken into custody. It is rumoured that the Dublin Staff have made two more pi iioners. Median, the person sworn to as principally con cerned in burning the house of Heany, at llalgaddy, was yesterday sent off to Kilmainham jail. Four others suspected are now in custody. Yesterday the Duke of Yoa held a Levee at the Commander-in-Chief's Office, in the Horse Guards. The Princess AUGUSTA aad Princess St:walla vi sited the KING yesterday, at Carlton /louse.

Na tional vessels of twenty tons, or under, shall pay no tonnage duty. National vessels proceeding from one port to another of the Republic, of more than twenty tons burthen, shall pay only half a real for every ton above twenty. The tonnage &icy accrues when a merchant-vessel shall have entered and finished her un loading, or in ten days after her entry in an authorised port, except to cases of return and average, after her first departure. —Passed 29th September. LAW CONCERNING DRAWBACKS. Wine, gin, brandy, beer, provisions, and articles of the first necessity for subsistence, have all the duties returned. To enjoy this privilege the importer, at the time of the entry, shall declare, on his word of honour, at the respective Custom Houses, that he imports those articles for exportation, in whole or in part, fut another port of a nation friendly to Columbia. Six months see allowed to make the expoitation. The drawback shall be givtt on the day of departure of the exporting vessel, which must be notified eight days previous, and 211 per cent. shall be reserved fur the National Treasury. Goods entered for exportation cantibt be consumed in the country without the permission of the Trea sury. Second-band purchasers are entitled to the drawback, and the exportation may take place in a different vessel. The Natches,which has arrived in the Clyde from New York, in twenty-two days, brings letters to the sth of January, stating that the exchange was 12 per cent. against the shippers of goods from this country. The Government Contract, which has been advertised two days ago, renders the prices of hemp steady, and will probably cause an advance in the Baltic. Of manufactured goods there has been a large exportation to South America; but the prices obtained for them here are extremely low, and the result to the shippers is very doubtful, as many of the* markets must be much overstocked. The demand for West India or East India produce for ex portation is extremely limited, and a great deal of shipping is un employed. The trade being rather out of stork has latterly caused a good demand fur home consumption for sugar and coffee at improved prices. Nothing can be duller than the wine and foreign spirit trade. A good deal of the consumption of the latter artiste has been transferred to British spirits. All articles of Irish produce are very dull. A Treasury Order has been issued, permitting the use of Wheat iu malting and distilling. Every liberal merchant must approve of this step, as the more unrestricted all kinds of trade can be made, the more will the country at large be benefited. At present, however, this will not be of any advantage to the Agriculturist, because there is a vast quantity of inferior Barley on hand, which can-only be used in distilling, and any increased consumption in wheat must consequently he inj•irious to the barley grower, in as far as this Treasury Older operatt a; it will, however, be useful in some future year. THE ARMY. It is, we belleve,-the intention of his Royal highness the Costmatmst-nt-Cntre, that one Battalion of the Guards - should be stationed permanently in Dublin, to do the Dublin duty— being occasionally relieved from the Brigade in London. It is stated in the military circles, that the 10th Lancers will be attached to the Household Brigade. The vessels are in readiness to convey the 13th Foot, now in Dublin Garrison, to their new deadnation in the Fast Indies: they have been under orders for some time, and will shortly embark. The reduction of the Staff in Ireland will, in a short period, be finally arranged. The departments of Adjutant and Quarter- Master-General will, we understand, be abolished. The office of Commander4n-Chief in Ireland will also be abolished. The Present unhappy disturbances have caused some delay in these We understand that it is intended to reduce the Permanent Staff of the Militia to one Adjutant, one Serjeant-Major, and one Drum-Major to each Regiment; and one Serjeant and one Cor poral to every fifty men,with ant. Drummer to every two Com' panies, whereby a saving will be made of £60,000 a year; thir will be placing them on the same establishment as at any (Gripe peace, except that no Battalion Clerk will be allowed, as thr Adjutant is to draw the subsistence of the Staff so retainee through the Commandant. It is also intended to employ those si kept no constant pay, to recruit the Militia by beat of drumo at a small bounty for a period of seven or fourteen years service, the same as the Line, instead of having recourse to that very, expensive and oppressive mode, which is now resorted to, to keep the Militia complete by ballot.

She appeared to be a North Country-built vessel, front one of the lower ports in North America. _ _ SPORTING IN7 ELLIGENCE. Thursday and Friday, last week, his Royal Highness the Duke of YORK, his Grace the Duke of WELLINGTOV, the of WrSTMORTLAWN Lord hot ay, and a large party of tashionables, assembled on a shooting party at llarestseld Park, Sussex, the seat of Sir Joux SHELLEY, Bart. The weather was delightfully fine, and as the covers were preserved for this occasion, the sport was excellent. His Royal Highness displayed his itstial steadi ness, as a marksman, on this occasion, and " brought to bag" everything he aimed at. lie seemed much pleased with the sport, and appeared in excellent health and h;gli spirits. As a proof of the latter, we cannot r:frain from giving a bun met of his Royal Highness on this occasion. Observing that one of the party (Lord Foxes . , we believe) had gone into the mod up to his knee, he exclaimed," I sly, Shelley, there goes a Aintv.sarkcl man !"—" How do you mean ?" replied the Baronet.—" Why, don't you see that he is a black bg !" A few day since, a hawk pursues a brace of fine cartridges down the town of Rye. The partridges took shelter in the cellar of 3lr. D. Sroorstam, draper, where they were captured : they are now doing well. The hawk, in his eagerness to secure his prey, nearly knocked cff the hat of a Gentleman belonging to the Custom-house of that place. A few days since, a jer felcon was shot near Parham, by Lord Dr La Zoven's keeper, the wings of which measured nearly four feet. This bird being a native of the cold and dreary climes ! of the north, is but seldom found to the south of Norway, Ice land, and the northern parts of Russia. The prevailing colour of its plumage is a dusky brown, and spotted; the feathers on the legs are very long, and of a pure white; the legs below the knee are of a pale blue, and are very strongly mask. Its migrating • so far to the south, renders the above a singular occurrence. FRIMLEY PARK COURSING-.-SATURDAT (LAST Dar). A %MYER MEDAL. Mr. Hutchinson 's bl. d. Hannibal beat Mr. Wrench's tan b.
