On Friday night last, Niesses. Kelly and Smith, of Captain ticock's Police, succeeded in apprehending the noted James Forgibber., Partrick Carty. John .\lolony, and T. 10111413 Collins, all of when, are charged with the wilful murder of Ultek Burke, Esq. in Feb. last, near Cappa they arc lodged in Ratlike:de Briaewell. On the next morning at ten o'closk, a female who had been seen the day before at liatlikesile, and who was conceived to have &wen int - arn:Mon which led to the apprehension of the lour Ml lows, was waking on the avenue leading to Cappa-house, on Saturday hest, about the hour of eleven in the forenoon, a man seised her, and dragged her into a grove that stands by the avenue, and there with a razor cut her tnruat across, but provi dentially the design of the ruffian is frustrated, Ls there are san• guinc hopes of the girl's recovery. This scene took placewithin from twenty to sixty yards of a cluster of houses, one of them a forge, the door of s Mesh opened towards the spot to which the assassin drew her, and in that forge were four men atithe moment. We must state that no wispicion of collusion rests against these four men, as the noise in the forge prevented the girl's cries from being heard. 'There ore two police linen stationed at Cappa, and Mr. Peppard WAS walking within sight of, and not more than two or three hundred yards from. the gill at the time the transaction occurred : one of the limo public roads in the county runs beside the place where she was attacked. Within the last few nights parties of ruffians visited sevetal houses between Clarine and Adase, in this couhty. 'They flogged a farmer, named Lynch, at Briskee; and the dwelling of Mr. C. Parket was attacked by an unarmed party, who beat trim tar not sending out hie servant to l logged by them. Monday night, John Fray ley received a fl oge,ina, near Ra th .. keale, from a party of ruffians. lie was suspected of giving information. At an early hour on Monday morning, a communication reached the Police-office ut Captain Droughty, in this city, that tet six o'clock on the preceding evening, two into of his truantry corps, mimed Gunnell and Armstiong, returning front Castle Connell to their quarters at Bird-hill, were attacked on the ' Gouigg road, and that the farmer was murdered, and the body supposed to have been thrown into a bog-hole, as no trace could be found of it. At three o'clock, however, a messenger arrived, who siatod that Gunnell hod been round in the corner of a ditch, at AO:111C distance from where the attack haul been made upon boo ; and that, though wounded and stabbed in several parts of the body, he was likely to recover. On Friday night, the Rev. Sir Wm. Reatle, Dart. returning to Ma glebe , at Toingrany, county Clare, was attewpted to be as sassinated by a fellow wrier darted from behind a wall, and dis charged a musket at him; the contents of (two balls) struck the opposite wall; and Sir William happily escaped by the 11cetness ut his horse. This active magistrate was after apprehending two men on infmmation, and had given them in charge to be con veyed to lomgrany bridewell. Every exertion to apprehend the delinquent who fired was promptiy made, but without effect. On Saturday night acme villains threw stones at Capt. Middle ton, IV, when visiting the guards, near the Square. Major Nicholson has lodged in Kilkenny gaol three btothers, named Ryan, for murdering James Egan, at liathlogan, on the Itch Sept. A gang of robbers, who broke into Captain Morgan's and Mr. Human's houses, on the Glaninire toad, last week, have been apprehended by the High Constable of Cork, after a desperate resistance. On Saturday night last, I.icut. Milligan, of the Rifle Brigade quartered at Newcastle. attended by a satiol of Ills men and a few of Captain Wilcock's pcniete, mare:lied front Newcastle to the armutitain of Glenuutt. They cautiously proceeded along the cliffsrent by 'raids and the extensive chain of mountains of Mor ristown, I freintrae, Glemore, and Ratlicahill, by which manaware they _rice:ceded in apprehending lal men. After • fatiguing march of upwards of 30 miles GVil mountains and through bogs, they itirived next dad at Newcastle, where the prisoners were lodsea :n the Brideweli• Cons, SIT V. ' .—Senrcrly a night passes without some corillagratimi of tithe corn, ur sit assuage connected with the system. 'rause fa mars who had purchased their tithe corn, and es en made it up in their haggards, have been compelled to unmake their stacks and draw it hack to the fields, trader the penalty of (be most severe punishment ; and where seine pour men had hired their Moses fir the impose of removing the tithe, vengeance followed, by barbarously boughieg and maim lag these animals. At this moment there remain throughout that district, several epiaatities of tithe corn, for which agreements had been made by the grower with the proctor ; but such is the tsrror that is spread, that all those arrangements are annulled on the part of the farmer, who dare oot take ore shear of it into his 'mats- Mon. &Such is the statement we toe now obliged to offer ; it is much to he hunented ; it calls loudly for wine permanent mea sure, that will restore peace and tranquillity to the country, and pat inn end to those horrible euerl•sra. A haggard, witl;in a quarter of a wile of Mallow., was set fee awl renamed tea Aluad ty /110 it. The patrol on Sunday THE NATIONAL REGISTER night, is traversing the eountry in the direction of 14.0 t..- . -rant, reckoned three fires in tlillerest diree'louS. The utmost alarm cousew aeutly pe , setfs that neighbourhood. Oa W eiliiesday night two horses belonging to farmers in the neighbourhood of Anita Lissy, were !toughed, in revenge of their ow:lms basing assisted in drawing the tithe corn of the Reverend Mr. Bennett. It appears that that gentleman , having I failed in his endeavours to compound with his parishoncre for their tithes, was obliged to draw them, • d induced several of the farmers to bring them to the church-yard of his parish church ; but could not prevail upon those persons to bring them any further. Their loads of hay and various kinds of corn were thrown out of the carts promiscuously into the church-yard, and sects was the prevalence of the syateni of terror, that not a man could be got to stack or rescue the confused mass. 'With a view to bring them to Mallow, a distance of about four miles ' from this chureli-yard, and there to have the corn and hey properly secured, Mr. Bennett hired the horses which were afterwards, so barbarously Maillied , and on the same night on which this cruel set wits voiniaitted, a notice was posted con taining the terrific threat, thul t' if any one presumed to draw that corn, Sc. might bring his collin with him!" The menace hash tile desired effect. Mr. Bennett has been unable to get any assistance in removing his property from the church) ard, nod share it lies. The outrages in that neighbourhood were not con hoed to the übove-mentioned lets—they were numerous and appalling, US we learn by a kilt. received this day from a gen tleman who resides intlie hcuse of the High Sherri, at Church town, dated on N ednesday night, which con tain. the follow ing alarming expressions Burning every night quite close to us—it has now the appearance uf St. Joen'e day. of light ing boulires in every part of the country. It appeara that those rutlians, who are thus setting the country in a d tole, lust e bi.en instigated by the suggestions of persons posseseing much more knowledge than could be expected from the wretched instru ments employed in these outrages. The incendiaries being aware of the vigilance of the magistracy, the military, and the police, have procured • clay tidied preparation, winch, being pieced in a meek of hay or corn, sets lire to it in some time after the preparation is deposited; those miscreants, then, by being at a distance from the lire, escape with impunity. This has been rendered manife st by nn oci urrence which souk place on Tuesday night. Sir Hugh Gough, the (Ahem who COlllllllOl. I the military in litit!ey ant and the surrounding district, having ' rcceit eil iutimition of the intention of burniug a haggard, 00 that night stationed a party of soldiers in aitilmah, hoping thereby not only to prevent the mischief, but also to nice on those who intended to commit it. After waiting a considerable time, the party, to their inexpressible surprise, beheld the haggard burst out into flames, without the appearance of any agent to produce the conflagrition. SEPT. 3J.-1 t is with feelings of horror and indignation Oust we announce the most daring instance of burglary and murder which has been perpetrated in the suburbs of this city or a length of time, mud one which has spread terror and alarm aiming the inhabitants of a peaceable ant populous district. l'eetei day morning, at one o'clock, an armed banditti mitered the house of the Rev. J. B. Creagh, Ilyde-park, in the north suburbs of this city, and has ing made a noise which awoke the butler ' (a man of excellent character, of the name of 31.C0r . noels ), he got up and went out, when they shot hint through the nest', and he expired in a few minutes. The house of Mr. Condon on the W ellington road was at tecktil on the seine night by the sante gang, before they went to Mr. Creaell'e and that one of die party was taken by a eon o Mr. Conduit's, but rescued by the others, and in consequence of the alarm they made on. Woterford Mirror of Monday, after 'giving the above articles, adds the following e regret to say that accounts still noire distressing from the immediate vicinity of Cork reoebvd us last might. Of their authenticity we have no doubt, but our information is not sufficiently precise to warrant details. The same conveyance brought us unpleasant intelligence from the confines of the counties of Cot k and Limerick. On the 20th instant, as Mai tin M'Malion was in the act of driving cattle for rent due to Mrs. Bradshaw, of Kilteely, he was attacked by a number of v easentry, who beat him and and fractured his skull. Ile was conveyed to the County In firmary in a dangerous state, the cattle was rescued. W A TERIORD, SEPT. 30.—We are sorry to hear from un questionable authority, that outrages have been committed on valuators of tithes in the neighbourhood of Aglis, in the a iuth west of this county. It is apprehended that these outrages proceed from a very dangerous and extensive combination. TRALLE, SEPT. 29.—A few days nince, two young gentle men bating sonic dilference in the streets ef Scarilf, county of Clare, which led to a boxing match, ono of them in a moment of irritation ran into his father's house, and has ing taken a hol ing piece which was loaded, fired at his antagonist, whom he missed, but the shuts unfortuditely took effect upon a young man standing near, hut totally unconnected with the party, and who now lies in a dangerous situation. AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR SEPTEMBER. Harvest was finished in the southern and forward districts during the course of the last mon Is; in the northern and less favoured, during the present. A tolerably accurate general estimate may now be foinital. Oa all the best lands, wherever situated, the wheat crop is considerably above an average, the quality uncommonly weighty and tine; and the straw, although not so bulky as in some years, substantial and extremely valua ble. The oat straw, as fodder, will almost equal the hay of some years. The spring crops, it is now confirmed, are generally detective, but the quality is generally good ; upon moist and productive light lands, however, sonic of these crops have reached an average; and, with respect to barley, it is remarked in the barley counties, that the old stock on hand equals in quantity the new growth. Hays and gras-es rather of fine condition than very great plenty, with exceptions of heavy crops and constant plenty green Mod. particularly aftermath on various parts. )n potatoes and turnips nothing new, the former a universally productive growth, the quantity greatly enhanced by superior quality, the latter defective in both ; as to Swedes, scarcely any quotable crop. The eagerness of the farmers, and the two growths, occasioned part of the wheat almost every where to be carted and stacked prematurely; whence heating and a necessity of preventive measures. A great Imp and fruit year, even to pears, in some part , . The greatest grape season of the last 4n. Ihe cider manufactory has commenced. The live stock and flesh markets, as well as that of corn, have of !.ite made some stand and sonic advance of price ; but autumn, the season of plenty and of overflow, is at hand. The (allows are backward for want of rain, and very little wheat has yet been pat into the earth. The state of the farming interest is truly deplorable, in which the poor labourer must necessarily share. Sir Henry Bunbury has taken the lead in recommending, by a circular to his Suffolk tenantry, the discontinuance fur the present of the WC of the threshing machine.

IiETiIEL UNION. ♦ meeting of the British and Foreivi Seaman's Friend Society and Bethel Union, tv;.... hetl on Wednesday /Arming at the city of Lendon Tavern, Biehopsgate-s reet, and notwith standing the uoluvourable state of the weather, Wild II lust nu merously attended. The Bight Hun. Admiral Lord Gauthier was called to the chair at 6 o'clock, and after a prayer had been made by the Rev. air. Brown, of South Ockemion, and a psalm sung by the company assembled, the retrospect of the poet:rl ines of the society during the last year was read by one of the secretaries. Fr um this aucumn•nt it appeared that one of its grand objects had been to difuse through all ranks of the cola triunity a proper concern for the moral and religious slate of seamen and scaboys, trusting thst, when that was accomplished, means might lie devised to bemuse and ameliorate their condi tion. The success of the exertions it had already made ex ceeded the most sanguine expectations of its warmest friends, and was to he seen in the fact that the Bethel ►'niou was now frerptenCy requested by moral and reltgioue parents who bad children Wllll4ll inclination for the eta to point out to theta hitch vessels in the merchant ser, ice as had colon/Anders who feared God." It likewise appeared that the society had Liken into consideration the stale of the w etermera who ply on the Thames, and that the result of their inquiry had been to Meurer that there were 611,1)1W persons on the liver for whose religious iustruc no specific provision was made. The retrospect stated that the society had dune what it could tor them, try causia4 sermons to be preached at dilferent stairs and in various chapels ; and added, that n new Itialiag cream!, to be moored old the Tower, was in contemplation for their benefit. To check as far as possil•le the drunkenness and impurity to which sailor s are esposed by lodgingin public-houses, and the shameless imposttiou practiced upon them by ueprincipled men, the society took, last year, n house in Ilerintheee-walk, Wapping, furnished it plainly with beds, &c. and placed it under the aupetintend ence of a pious ric!ive man, who has *peel the greater part of his lire at sea. The most happy consequences are attheipsted from this plan, which has met the approbation end summit of the East India Company. The retrospect, which extends over 20 closely printed pages, conclndes with a minute detail of the efforts wilieh the society has made at our different ougports tot the imin•ovement of our sailors, and of the attempts which hare been made in foreign countries to en-operate with the exertions. After it had been read and approved of by the meeting, several reverend gentlemen addressed the meeting, and inculcated the necessity of contributing to its funds, as it appeared from the financial accounts that they were nnequel to the expenditure which the society had to meet. Several resolutions were then put and carried ; on were also chosen for the society during the next year. Thank* were then voted to Lord Gam bier ; and, after another psalm bad been sung, and prayer made, the meetlng broke up ; but not without leaving a liberal contribution for the society in the hands of the geutlemeu who stood to collect it at tlr doors.

During the earliest years of Sir William G---'s practice at the bar, his clients were almost wholly of that respectable class of individuals on whom the Old Bailey depends for celebrity, and whom the late Dr. Foram used classically to designate by the appellation of the gentlemen of the run trade. — After devoting, fin ten years, his unrivalled talent at confounding truth, to the extrication and salva tion cf the Gimbal)/ members of this fraternity, the learned counsel happened by some accident, to be employed fin- a creditor, or, more plainly speaking, fbr the prosecutor of afar merchant. The transfer of the goods was proved by two most veritable wit nesses ; but the defendant produced a first-rate character-man to prove that they could not possibly have come into his hands, because he was a hundred miles out of the way. Mr. G—w, feeling that it' this man was believed his case must break malts him, set about impeaching his credibility, by ask ing, " Now, Sir, upon the oath you have taken, will you swear that fir these ten years past you have ever ben employed by an lamest man ?" Mr. Fielding, who was counsel for the prisoner, stopped the witness in his answer, by observing dryly " The best way for the witness to answer that ques tion is to put it to the learned gentleman himself." PUBLIC WMPPING.—On Monday morning at an early hum, a crowd of speciators Issettmbled is the Old Bailey to witness the public castigation of six individuals, who had been convicted for various offences at the Sessions just terms noted, pursuant to their sentences. Precisely at nine o'clock, the gates being thrown open, the court-yard, in • few minutes. was crowded to excess, w here this disgraceful punishment was immediately put in execution; and during the undergoing of which, the several Varbolli roared out most testily. 1 k.
