primly, Nov. 1.
The Dublin Express repeats the eatemout of the
appointment of Mr. Robinson, of the Connaught bar,
to the Indian Chief Justiccship, with this difference,
that the Presidency of Bombay is the locality
assigned.
Lint-Colonel Robert Shaw, eldest son of the
Recorder of Dublin, has been appointed a. stipendiary
magistrate.
Sir Mnlby Crofton, Dart., has been ordered to
Boyle, as stipendiary magistrate during the suspen-
sion of Mr. Kirwan, the recent imestigation into
whew conduct has been so much before the public.
Tho magistrates of the southern division of the
King's County met in Parsonstown on Thursday, to
consider measures to ho taken in reference to the
recent murder of Mr. Manifold. The Earl of Rosse
presided, and thirty-three magistrates were in
attendance. A sum of upwards of 3001. was sub-
scribed by those present, in addition to tho govern-
ment reward of 1001., for any information which
would lead to the conviction of the murderers. The
persons now in custody are to be brought up for
further examination next Wednesday, at Tullamore.
At Parsonstown Quarter Sessions, on Friday last,
two perwoa named Lamb, who pleaded guilty to
raseaing goods Wed los notspsysseot of pososstas,
and for assaulting the at. Mr. Manifold and his
assistants at Derrlnboy on the 10th October, were
sentenced to six calendar months' imprisonment each,
at hard labour.

A few days since a threatening letter was re-
ceived through the post-office of Parsonstown, by
William White, Esq., directing him to leave that
town, and give up. his employment under the Earl of
posse, or otherwise that he would meet the same
death as that of Mr. William It. Manifold. Govern-
ment have dffered a reward of 201. for such informa-
tion as will lead to the arrest of the person or per-
sons concerned in writing or sending the letter.
Most remarkable fluctuations have recently taken
place in the Irish share market, but the upward ten-
dency has finally prevailed, and the rise within the
last few days has been almost unprecedented.
The investigation ordered by government into the
conduct of certain of the Mayo magistrates, was held
at Castlebar, on Saturday, but, according to the prac-
tice on similar occasions, the reporters were pre-
cluded from publishing any account of the proceed-
ing.. Enough, however, has transpired to let us
know that the ease trumped up by the tones on this
occasion completely broke down; and I believe that
the subjoined account in the Freeman will not bo
found to be fur from the strict truth.

Castiebar, Saturday Evening.
An investigation, directed by. his exedleney the Lord
Lieutenant, was held this day in the County Court-house,
wi h the view of ascertaining the truth or falsehood of
Charges which had been brought against Sir Samuel O'Mal-
ley, Hirt., one of the oldest magistrate' of this county, Mr.
George 11,nry Moore, our highly respected representative,
Mr. Mark Bike, llalinafad, and Captain Fitsgerald Hig-
gins, of havini been guilty of improper and unjudieial con-
duct while sitting as migistratee on the bench at the petty
sessions held in this town on the 28th of July lastlmmedi•
ately after the election. Considerable excitement wal created
not only amongst the inhabitants of the town, but throughout
the entire county, when it became known that gentlemen of
the highest standing in the county,distingitished for their con-
scienUous imparti.dity, and the great ability, judgment, and
prudence invariably exhibited by them in the discharge of
their magisterial functions, had been selected by the Tory
faction of Mayo as the fittest objects upon whom they might
vent the feelings of hatred, excited by their disastrous de-
feat at the late election. The fact of the Irish government
having recently favoured Mayo with a mark of attention
similar to the present, in the person of Mr. Kirwan, UM.,
and their having suspended that gentleman for a period of
six =whs. The strange coincidence of the majority
of the magistrates involved in the present proceeding
being, like Mr. Kirwan, catholic gentlemen, together
with the circumstance that both investigations had re-
ference to occurrences connected with tbu late election,
when the supporters and friends of the said go-
vernment were Ignominiously defeated in this at-
tempt upon the representation of this county by the ster-
ling', honest patriotism of ita zealous and devoted clergy,
and unpurehmeable electors. All these Clatters combined
to increase the general indignation and to excite amongst us
some alarm as to the runts of the inquiry. All doubt and
alarm have been removed, however, by the proceedings of
to-day. Nothing could be more complete than the utter
failure of the attempt to sustain the charges foewarded to
Dublin Castle, and to investigate which Mr. Serjeant
O'Brien was seat down by the Lord Lieutenant; and
nothing could be more triumphant than the complete vindi-
cation of the fear gentlemen whose conduct was the sub-
ject of inquiry ; and I may state, a proof of the hope-
lessness and the absurdity of Making that anything
like a cue could be established , that some of the principal
promoters—men upon whose written statements the
government were partly induced to order the in-
quiry—did not even venture to appear either in person or
otherwise, although repeatedly called on to do so. The
imputations which these absent individuals plaited upon
record, and did not appear to justify, were in effect, that
Messrs. G. H. MOOT., M.P., Mark Blake, Captain F. Hig-
gins, and Sir S. O'Malley had permitted a Amens mob to
ell e court of petty session ma the 28th of July, and to
convert it into a " bear garden" without making any
attempt to restrain them ; that they Modeled cases of
assault against " election rioters," is whisk sneak magis

founded; that they convicted others, upon whom they
imposed penalties, which penalties they wabecribid

tices • and last, but not the hest strollers of all,

TRIBUTE TO LORD RAOLAN.—Wo understand
from officers of rank in the army, (asys the United Sams
Gasette). that it is in contemplation to propose, for the ac-
ceptance of Lord Raglan, a splendid and suitable memorial
of the grateful sense entertained by them of his efficient
public services, during the many years in which he fulfilled
the important and laborious duties of Military Secretary to
the illustrious Commander, who is so soon to be followed to
his grave by the Attendant sorrow of the whole British
nation, and of the sympathetic respect of all Europe. We
have much pleasure in making known the probability of
an opportunity being shortly given for the realization of
this well earned tribute to the services and worth of the
noble and gallant soldier so long known, and honoured,
and beloved as Lord Fitzroy Somerset.
