From a London Paper.
AF EW days since a
wagerwas decided in
Dublin, in the most curious
manner. One Dingle, a
purblind brush maker, a
noted glutton, ate tripe a
gainst a bull dog.
Twelve pounds were to
be divided between them,
and which ever of the com
petitors was done firft, was
to gain the wager.
The man,in 15 minutes,
ate eight pounds of it, while
the dog was 20 minutes
consuming the other four:
besides, all the fat was
thrown into Dingle's dish
by his opponents, to cloy
his appetite,& a piece of old
leather breeches was hashed
in his mess, with a view to
interrupt mastication. Since
that time, still more to ex
alt his fame, he undertook
to drink twelve quarts of ale
at fix draughts, within four
hours, he performed it in
three, with the addition of
a Imall live mouse, which a
During this attempt to break into
the palace, 3 very heavy fire was kept
up on both tides, and a grel m&ny
persons killed. Cannon were pointed
to prevent the entrance into the pal
ace, but the numbers and strength of
the mob rendered refinance ineffectual,
and they at length penetrated into the
interior parts of it. The firff refinance
within was fiom the top of the grand
flair case, where the Swift made a very
firm stand, but rhe mob, unawed, and
encouraged by the cry of liberty, vic
tory or death, icon made their way up
the fair case, when the Swiss gave
way, and a general massacre ensued!
they had defended themfelve with great
intrepidity, and iTaio numbers of their
affaires,but being a tacked at the farce
instant by the National guards within,
polled there to protect the King, and
by the armed banditti below,they were
between two fires, and the daughter
was of course great. The Swiss guards
had been weakened by their having
sent a detachment of their corps to
join some National guards who protest
ed the King oh his way to the National
Assembly, and when the King was ar
rived there, most of those guards dis
persed to go to break fall.
The madacre was greater than can
hardly be credited, and it is reported
with great authority, and the report is
confirmed by both parties, 1500 ptr
fons including women and childrens
were slain or wounded during this day.
There was not one Swiss soldier foiled.
About 60 who were not killed on the
spot, were taken prisoners and con
mifehievous wag threw into
his last flaggon.
LONDON, August J7.
Account of the attack upon
and demolition of part of
the Thuilleries, &c. on
Friday the roth inst. at
Paris.
'~r'HE attack on the palace began
1 before 10 o'clock. Jr was con
duced by a regiment of Cordelier.,
Some Federates of Marseilles, the
Federates of Brest, and a battalion of
guards from rhe quarter of Sr. Anto
ine. A Marfellois officer appeared nt
the principal door of the Palace, and
demanded entrance for himfelf and bis
banditti, from a Swift officer who com
manded there. The Swiss replied that
his orders would not permit him to
comply. The Marfelloi, officer in-
Uantiv applied a pißol to his breast,
and (hot him through the heart. That
moment the carnage began and it last
ed the whole day.
During this t me the inhabitants of
all the Fauxbourg, were repairing to
the palace and the National Ahembly,
accompanied by all the fecbons of Pa
ris, armed in the fame manner as they
were on the 2och of June, and calling
out for the dethronement of the King
—that he MTU a traitor, and had for
feited the crown. The King perceiv
ing such a mob of banditti, with fury
in their looks, began to be alarmed —
Just at that moment he received a
message from the directors cf the de
partment of Paris, warning him of
his danger, and advising him to go
immediately to the Na ionalAffembly,
and to take his family with him. He
was scarcely out of the palace, before
the mob collected toge heron ibeP^aci
d:< Carctfi, inched on being admit
ted immediately into 'he courts of the
palace. It ua3 impossible for the
guards to prevent their irruption —
Having rushed in raft numbers, they
took possession of the cannon which had
been abandoned by the gunners who
had joined the insurgents.
It was observed that this banditti,as
well as the guards themlelves, were
not headed by any officers-^-but the
tnob cried out that they could do with
out them,fo" their officers could net be
trusted.
