They then went to where their daughter (an interesting young woman of 23 years of age) lay, and striae!: her its like manner, till they litterally broke her skull in several .places. There was a servant girl in the Loose, but site was not bur. She was not a Protestant. "On the following morning Surreal' Nilson, from Dundalk, dressed their wound., and took several pi-ces of the skull from the poor girl's head. She still lingers, hot I neither the old win nor his daughter are expected to sur vive.

I.—On Sunday morning, at the boor of two o'clock, the residence ofJoseph Nubbins, Esq. of Ken mare Castle, in this county, was attempted to be broken into from the kitchen door. The family were awake by the noise, on which the young gentleman of the house, immediately tired two shots from the upper windows, which caused the ruffians to make off—the footsteps of several were heard. The circumstance occurred within four or live hundred yards of the residence of Captain Dames, Chief Constable of Polio e, who on the alarm lost no time in turning out with a party of his police, and made a diligen search in the plantations and fields about the neighbourhood; also the, houses, closely examing the fret, shoes, and wearing apparel of each individual of the inmates, but could get no .race of the offenders.—(limerick Chron.) KILKENNY, Oct. I.—The men, with their horses and cars, who were stopped near Lazy. Bush, by a party of the garrison, and brought in prisoner; to Kilkenny, o n 'I hursilay night, Were discharged on bail by Joseph Bratlish, Esq. the then Alayor. We (Vic Lciiiver Journal) have received a long letter front " A Friend" on the subject of our para graph concernin a this unconstitutional proceeding, assuring us that the men intended to transgress the law, and that their arrest was a merciful prevention of crime. Whether mitt he the truth or a libel on the prisoners we know not; but if the fact of their conspiracy could have been substan tiated, the Mayor would not have discharged them ; and if not, the writer ought to know that it is part and parcel of the common law and of our common christianity, that " evil is not to be done that good may follow."—(hciaater Journal.) Nev cAsTLE Perry SesstoNs.—On Friday last, a case appeared before the Sitting Magistrates, which exhibited a more than ordinary spectacle of human depravity, the principle of which has been unfortunately too prevalent of late years among the lower class of peasantry in this country. A dairyman made application, through a e ro• fessional Gentleman, to the Court, to lodge a criminal information against his landlord or master, for burglary and felony; it appeared to the Court that the landlord entered the dairyman's house, and took thereout two firkins of butter, which the dairyman ha 1 csncea!ed to convert to his own use. The dairyman and his wife, in order the more effectually to substantiate the charge of burglary; instituted the vile charge of felony, inasmuch as 'that the landlord, In the 'act of seizing on the butter, reported to a box in theroom which was without a lock, and feloniously took thereont five pounds in notes, which the dairyman swore he received on the 25th of August last for two *heifers. at the fair of ltathkeale. From the incohe rence of his testimony regarding his sale of the cattle, and prAncing no evidence in support of his own, or his knowledge of the buyer, the Court doubted the veracity of the deponent, who was instantly contradicted by a near neighbonrof his, who swore positively that the two Iseifera, alleged to he sold, were on that day in the actual possession :of she dtiryman, and were never sent to the fair or sold ; taerefore •ths ; charge of felony was set aside—the foulest 'perjury was unravelled—the unhappy delinquelts were !panic-struck. and reproached each other with the crime ; the husband .declaring it was the wife who urged Marto Abe act. The Court and auditory were easharraseed on of the transaction ; an f, after a few minutes consul. ttati in, the ['resident addressed the prosecutors in an int ipressive manner, informed them toey were guilty of at tempting to commit corrupt and premeditated p•rjtwy. tehlreli-was clearly proved on satisfaa'ory evidence—that he twee extremely sorry the juris lietion of . that Court did not 'warrsnt 2elssistrates to punish Chem as the :ware and 'kfent of their offence highly d?served ; cons ..qae.it;i they sbé ulfered todephtt tor the tirrsen:. , • . .. ~~.~~ . • ...; :-• gpoitTifin KrARIETiRS. • • TROTTING 51 tven!t— V gen refrif 'Ape linfongse the Essex ("entry took yesterday from the Waggon House, nd *flitting Epping Ferest. between a bay Oa loway, belonging to Mr. °Minim, of Bowlegs. and Mr ifrodekinson's Minister, tattither reaching 11, itsit2s.
