The choral:tee istic gloom of Thompson's temper, and the solitariness of his habits, fiom that time visibly augmented. It was stated by the pi oprietor of the home in which he last boarded, that on one or two occasions he had been observed by gun to take lonely rambles about the streets before the don n of day ; lie still, however, continued to freqcetit Hamilton's residence.

A poor man, with his wife and brother iti•law, were rettirning , iii for evening from a neighbour- Mg fair; when they h. d arrived so near to SliAo as the vicinity of Percynitium, the husband being sonic dis tance before his wife and brother.ist-law, the latter was assailed by a fellow who jumped over a ditch into the road, an 1 struck him such a blow on the head as brought him to the gro immediately on Which two other ruffians joined the assailaid, and the three forced the poor 1%0111311 into the &his, where a scene of vio lence ensued, with a more particular description ill which we will not sir ck the feelings of nor readers. Otie of the villiatis is ill custody, and has been fully identified. We sincerely Imiie that the remainder of the gucig will also shortly fall into the hands of justice. IFroin the Limerick Chronicle of Wednesday, Dec. 19 1 Friday night, a party of the 42d Highlanders, sta tioned at Bruree, in this county, were called to quell a riot in a public.honse : on approaching it, the Sergeant (Wm Hilliard) followed a wan who vas 110111(Cd wit to him as the priucipal in the affray ; the Sergeant called oil him to surrender, but was met by a blow of a stone which felled him to the gromul ; the ruffian stamped on his body, and et:nattily lin:enable death would have fol lowed, but fortunately Ensign Clarke and Corporal Whitley came up and secured the man, riamed Gott:, who, with two of his companions, Leary and Murphy, were secured, and are lodged in gaol, it, their possession WaS hltlllll a prayer-book, which, it is stated, was used by them in administering illegal oaths; and also a quan tity of gunpowder was gut its Murphy's pocket. We arc informed that a Roman Catholic clergyman, lilt many miles Imin this city, who expostulated with hi, flock on Sunday, on the insanity of the proceedings of the lower orders, in nightly attacking their peaceable neighbours, was attempted to Ile murdered within the precincts of the chapel, by several knows, but were peisuaded fro((( the e,mlinitial of it, by au interference oa the part of some (tithe gaup that he should iu future abstain from such obseivations. A few nights ago the house oldie clerk of Pallis-green church was 11111.14/111Illell by nearly lOU armed men, who demainled the key of it, which lie give. and accompanied them whilst they were searching the house of worship for lead, which they said was deposited there previous to repairing. Not finding any, they got ladders and ascended the roof, but were also disappointed. They then r..tircil desiring the clerk to intimate to the Rev. Mr. Jellett to part with •his proctor, otherwise they would pay him a visit. The dame night several! houses iii the vicinity of Pallis-green were attacked for lire-arms, and many stand ohtitiued bg these misguided wretches. —I tiformaeons of this outrage are taken by the the Rev. Charles P. Coote, a Magistrate of this county. On Saturday evening, about 5 o'clock, as a marketing party of the 93d Slighlanders, consisting of a corporal and three privates, were reuniting to Ballyneety, Wt`t:ll near Callirliarry one ill the men was a few yards in front of the others as an advance guard, a fellow cattle behind him, tripped up his heels, seized his firelock, and made MI with it; the party immediately gave chase ; the cor poral soon overtook the scoundrel, and knocked hint down with the butt of his musket, secured him, awl brought hint to Ballyneety. When the party were at tacked, a respectable man (whose name we have heard) who resides near Cahismarry, and some of his men, were passive spectators; the road at the tinie was covered with country people coming fiont Limerick ; the corporal very naturally appreltendA a rescue, and applied to this inan for assistance, which he posittiely refused. Mr. James Barry, of Birekstown, fortunately came op at the time, and on the corporal's applying to him he very kindly re mained with the party until the prisoner was delivered over to Lieut. Arthur, at Ballyneety. The fellow's name is Magratli, from Herirertstown,a well-known character. Next morning Lieut. Arthur, and a party of the 93d Highlanders, brought him to Limerick, with three other prisoners, charged with attacking a party of the 421, near Bruree; they are committed for trial at the Special Coln. mission: Magrath will be held in the City Court.

The pi isoner stood indicted for having on the. 411 of December, in the 2d year of the present rein, at Itallinacarra, felonionsly taken lions the person of Edward Sandwich, it gun, the property of John Russell. After witnesses had been examined on both sides, Baron M'Clelland summed up the evidence. and charged the Jury, telling them that the evidence adduced on the part of the prosecution appeared to him to be clear, powerful, and irresistible. The Jury then retired, and returned in 1 about twenty minutes, finding a vet diet of—Guilty. Sentence was not then pronounced, and the prisoner was removed from the bar. After the trial and conviction of Patrick Shanghoessy in the City Conti, the Judges proceeded to the County Colort-lions - e. James Walsh was then placed at the bar. The prisoner was indicted for a riot in the Boman Catholic Chapel of Ballybrieken, in the county of Limerick, on Sunday, the lath day of December, in the 2d year of the present reign, and al,u for an assault on the Rev.

The Court then proceeded to pronounce sentence on the pristint•rs that had been convicted. John Ward, Thomas Lee, Morgan Cregan, G. D'Arcy, John Main, Thomas Keetle, Daniel Keeffe, P. Enright, and Patrick Cregan, were then placed at the Bar. Baron pronouncing sentence, spoke nearly as follows :-- Prisoners, you have been found guilty of a riot and an assault, on the clearest and most satisfactory evidence ; your 'silence was not excited by any sudden impulse of anger or indignation ; there was nothing to palliate if, but, on the contrary, it was of the most daring and dangerous description, and one which would strike at the very foundation of the jurisprudence of the country. it appeared, that an unfurtmiate woman came here last Assizes to give her testimony, and that on her return to the town of Newcastle, she was assailed by a untidier of persons, who maltreated and assailed her with stones. sticks, anti other missile weapons: the wretched as :anon was needy killed ; you; Jahn Ward, with peculiar atto• city, in the presence of a peace-officer, indicted malty blows upon her, and it was no fault of yours if she was not then killed. What excuse can you otter for su daring ' an mitt age ? None. What was her offence ? Iler (deuce was that she came here at the last Assizes, as a witness to take a eulcum oath—to tell the truth. Do you imagine that such conduct is ill be tolerated ? if you think so, the example that will be made tit you is ill eons nice those as sociates with whom you are connected, that you are mis taken, and they is ho date to offend or outrage the laws, will meet with the condign punishment the law inflicts.— sot iy am 1 to say, that your conduct has nut only dis played the bad deposition that pervades the county, but your defence has, if possible aggravated your guilt. I trust :not hope that the example which will be made of yeti, will tend to resime peaco, good order and tranquil lity ; you, John Ward, L select as the worst. You have shewn a depravity greater than any of your associates — you have been guilty of inure co (telly and violence; I therefore sentence you to la months' imprisonment : and you, Thomas Lee—you, Morgan Cregan—you, Geo. D'Atcy—you, John Finn you Thomas Kettle—you, D. liettle--you, Frederick Euright—and you I'at. lregau, arc to be imprisoned twelve months, anti alt and each of you, at the termination of your imprisonment, are seve rally to find at entities to keep the peace for seven years, particularly to Catheriue Haasett and David Fitzgerald, yourselves in the stun of 101. each, and each to hod two sureties in :tat. each ; and should any of you hereafter violate the peace, you shall not only be dealt with accord ing to the utmost rigour of the law, but yottr friends who shall enter bail for you, shall be incarcerated for your future oftences. Daniel Mai tin was then placed at the bar. Baron M'Clelland thus addressed the prisoner.—Daniel Martin, yOll have been found gully of a misdemeanour, fur mita w hilly and riotously assembling with arms on the 9111 of Octauer. The sentence of the Court on you, D. Martin, is, that you lie imprisoned six months, and that ice dill Illg that period, you be publicly whipped thilf the WWI) Ul Newcastle. alarm' Glaris - , John Grady, Thomas Kelly, Michael Kelly, Join) Iftsion, Johu Muilithe, and 'finiothy Shea, were then placed at the bar. After caniiig over the names of the prisoners, Baron el'Clellatel thus proceeded : Prisonet s, you have been se vet ally found guilty of crimes winch the law punishes with death. Where it was possible for humanity to suggest a doubt, it has been turned to the advantage of the phone', and some have escaped through the humanity of the Jury. (Ilere some of the uoliappy men called out, " a long day your honour, for the love of God.") You, Timothy Shea, were taken prisoner, after you had been seen w ith a party Consisting of 80 or 100 men mounted. You were foiled with a horse, which you had unlawfully taken for your nightly dapredations; you were armed with deadly weal i a Pa." was found in your breast, anti a powder horn in your pocket. You, TIII/Illab Kelly, and you, Michael Kelly, iii the middle of the Hood (Ma proceeded to the house of the unfoi. tunate Mrs. Sparing, and plundered it of arms. That old and respectable lady, who was incapable of resistance, you, Thomas Keay, snapped a pistol at twice; you snapped a pistol also at her maid, and eventually plundered the house 01 that unfortunate gentleman, who has since fallen, perhaps by your halide. You, John Ilision, and John Mullane, persecuted a poor industrious man, not only by threats, but by open acts of violets... You designed his destouction, and told him that I he should have Spurting's fate, as you expressed it. This case sheaved the state to is hich society had been reduced at Newcastle—si hen this unhappy Milli called for relief nut a door would be opened to him or to his children. You had affixed a notice on his nesglitiout's door, prohibiting any one from dating to associate with him, and you threatened one individual for holding idly communication with him, and w OM is as his crime? Ile was a Kerry man. That was an offence, according to your code of laws, not to be pardoned. You, Nlartin (body, and you, John Grady. have also forfeited your lives to the offended laws of your country. — There is soutething more uppallilig in your case tha n in any of the w veeding. - h a ve not attempted to prove nu alibi by the ordivaty mode, but such bat
