Postscrtpt. LONDON, MONDAY, MARCH 6. Three o'Clock, p. m. The intelligence received from the West of Ire land is very alarming. The Ribbon-men, we are concerned to find, arc ina;sing rapid progress and are in open insurrection in Connaught. An im mense number of ignorant individuals have bound themselves by a horrible oath to support each oth"r in obtaining a redress of what they consider local grievances, but which are entirely unconnected with politics. There are some misehievous and artful men at the head of the insurgents, who have had the temerity to oppose the King s troops, and blood has been shed. The insurgents are in force, and on Sunday sennight they attempted to rnetrate in three columns, of 500 men each, into the Barony of Clournorris ; but they were in..l at every point by the military, and driven back with the loss of two killed on the spot and one wounded. The hit ter a wealthy farmer. l'he object of the Ribbn men is to penetrate into the neighbouring counties, to swear the peasantry, and obtain an accession of numbers. Their vengeance in a great measure is directed against the Magistrates and the Police. In a conflict with the latter at Ahaserah, in the county of Galway, they have been too successful, for the Guard of the Dublin Mail-coach states, that he saw the dead bodies of eight or nine of the Police Officers lying on the road-side. Yesterday the Paris Papers from the 27th ult. to. thy' 2tl instant, inclusive, ;mica. They are to. tally barren of intelligence. There is a rumour in a Paris Paper of the 29t1, ult. that the Emperor of Itu , sia had received a wound from an assassin.. There is much talk in Germany of a curious cir .cumstance which occurred a short time sine' at B Thu. During the kst Carnival, when ain isque hall w•is given at the Theatre, Jinr men were ob served to enter in mourning, bearing a coffin This romtinti , masquerade exhibition made at strong im pression for some time on the eninp my, but it passed off as a dull joke. The thur men having deposited the coffi.t in a corner, muted among the crowd of charactet , and disappe.:red. Th-s nest morning the lx,it or coffin appeared to be covered ith black cloth, and on opening it they found an image modelled in wax, strongly resembling an ang,ust personage dear to Prussia —This figure was pierced with several stabs of a poignarl A bloody 1 1 / 2 4-ger was laid in the coffin. They have not yet discovered the authors of this frightful joke.

The report of the resignation of Sir N. Conant is.premature. We understand, however, that an arrangement is in contemplation, by which he is to be succeeded by Mr. Baker, as Chief Magistrate of Bow-street °thee, with the honour of Knighthood. Mr. Conant or Mr. Dyer will succeed to the Chief Magistrucy of the hlarlbortiugh-street bench, and the vacant chair in that office is, it is reported, to be filled by Mr. Mainwaring, of Worship-street. A very erroneous opinion prevails, that State Pri soners, confined in the Tower, are allowed a guinea a day, or a superb dinner and a bottle of wine daily, by Government. They have nothing more than an ordinary dinner and a pint of porter each at their meal. It is rumoured, that though the public accounts for the current quarter will exhibit a falling off in the trade of the country to the amount of some millions, there will, on the whole revenue, be no deficiency ; but, on the contrary, including the lust quarter, there will be a considerable surplus. It is reported that a forgery WA very considerable amount, his been detected in the City, within the course of a few days, but the particulars have nut transpired. 1311tbS. The lady of F.
