THE LIMERICK MURDER.

LIMERICK. MONDAY.
This morning the remains of the murdered vie-
Ilr. Francis Filmier%ld, were removed from the Cot-
tage, near Kilmallock, his late residence, for inhuman in
the new cemetery in this city. The funeral core* was
immense, and the remplithy evinced by all testiffsd the deep-
felt sorrow ot the multitude. There was a load train cl
mourners, and the private equipages of the gentry of the
district, with numbers from this, his native city, farmed a
cavalcade of • mile is length, seeded Boma catholic else-
amen taking part in the obsequiee observed for the dead.
The weather was exceedingly wet throughout the journey,
and at half-past two o'clock the body was deposited in its
Jut resting-place, amidst the lamentations of numerous
relatives and friends. From an early hour in the morning
the window shutters were up in 'early every shop, as •
token of esteem and regret for the much lamented gentle-
man. The rumour of the arrest of the second "maim has
turned out unfounded. He is, however, known, and the
authorities are on his trail, with an almost positive oar-
' tainty of rumen, constables of the constabulary having been
rin all directions in pursuit—in fact, ere this
ig probable he will be in safe custody. lam also
in • podlice to add that the conspirators who hired these
vile seesawing to enema the foul deed will be made
amenable to justice—a circumstance at which every lover al
humanity and true Christian will rejoice. It appears that
the late Mr. Fitzgerald had purchased the interest of seine
middleman in a small portion of laud in his neigh
and gave notice of his intentiontO Mile the rent=
that he had served notice to quit upon three tenants on hie
property—Sweaters' New.
On Sunday, the parish priest of ICOmallock, the Very
Rev. A. Downes, addressed the people on the subject of
/11.01/It. He bore storm testimony to the diameter of
the deelmed, ea a good man, aniversally beloved. He was
also • meld observer of the rites of his church. Having
described his death, the priest exclaimed, " Is sat this •
sad state of society, that in the noon day an been emble
and ta beloved gentleman is shot, sad in the centre of
pan• r
which has been long years remarkable for its
maesfalnees and morality in *very seam of the word"
He exhorted the people to give all the information they
could regarding the murder. He said—" You know well,
brethren, and I need not here tell you, that the blood of our
bream crieth to Heaven. Almighty God has
it, wed He Ma farther deobved that from every one
of you He will demand an account of the blood of
your brother. It is, then, your bounden duty--one you
owe to God—one you owe to society—OW you ewe to your
own parish, and to the district in which you live—to bring
forth the offending party and make him amenable to jus-
tice. There in, as Jon all know, an unfortunate man taken
for this mime and whentdisd in the clearest manner. How-
ever, brethren, it is not for us to pronounce anything
against him. Here Is not the place forms to pronounce
anything on this unfortunate man, and I hope you will ell
think the same. But I repeat again what I have already said
to you, that you owe it to God, to society, and to the dis-
trict where you live, to remove this stain from you, as far
forth as you possibly can, by giving every possible informa-
tion respecting it to the proper authorities. It is a relief—
if any relief can be uoder such sad circumstances—that
the person in prison is not a person from, and dote not be-
long to, this locality. It is some consolation that he is far
removed from us, and that the blood so unhappily shed
in this parish will not fall on any of the people of this
parish. ] don't like, dear brethren, to go further upon
this deplorable subject; it is a matter too delicate
and too painful, and I am sure there is not one
single individual in my congregation that does not
participate in the common grief that this gad
event has caused. 1 have seen many
.sad and trying occa-
sion' during my long cameral the ministry, and I was gifted
with sufficient strength and fortitude in the discharge of
my clerical duties to bear them ; but I assure you that I
was wholly unable this morning to withstand the agonising
sight of the tears and lamentations of the afflicted and
stricken-down woman bemoaning over the body of her
loving and well-beloved husband. I ask you now, brethren,
to offer up your prayers to the throne of mercy and grace—
and I hope he does not want our prayers, for he lived a holy
and a pious life—yet to offer up your prayers for the repose
of his soul, and to beg that Almighty God, in His great
mercy, will grant patience and that comfort which He alone
can send to his afflicted widow."

HILLTH OF LONDON.—From the weekly return
homed by authority of the Registrarameral, it appears
that the deaths in London in the week that angled lest
Saturday were 1,125, the number in the premdthg week
having been 1,249. The average number of deaths as ob-
Mined from the returns of corresponding weeks in tee pre-
vious years 185261, and corrected, for increase of papuletion, is 1,195. Consequently the deaths registered last weak I
were less than the estimated number by 70. The births in
the week exceeded the deaths in the same period by 745.
Zymotic diseases in the aggregate were fatal last wash is ,
292 cases, whilst the corrected average of corresponding
weeks is 270. Fifty-eight deaths occurred from scarlatina,
30 from measles, 84 from typhus, and. 39 from whooping-
cough. Three infants died from syphilitic disease, 6 from
want of breast-milk. There were 139 deaths from phthisis,
82 from broothitis, and 50 from pneumonia. There wen •
6 deaths from burns and maids, and 3 from suffocation. The
son of a hawker, aged 9 months, residing at 12, Clarence- I
place, Kent-raid, died from choleraic diarrbcea, 7 days. A
plumber residing at 6, Claremont-place, Gray's-inn-lase,
died from enteritis, preceded by lead colic. A redeem, aged
35 years, died in Royal Mint street,Aldgate, from the effects
of chloroform administered before an operation for fistula. •
The deaths of five nonagenarians were recorded during the
week, the oldest of whom, a female, had attained the age •
of 95 Ceara. Last week the births of 938 boys and 93'2
girls, in all 1,870 children, were registered in London.
In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 165261 the
avenge number (corrected) was 1.1136.
Tun biannual' Law.—A distreawing case bas
recently occurred in the Wincanton Unice. In the year
1846 a man married his deceased wife's brother'. daughter,
by whom be has had nine chiklree. le the mouth of March
lag be deserted them, whereby they became chargeable to
the parish, were sent to the union workhouse. and there
Awed under older of removal to the woman's maiden settle-
ment. The marriage being illegal, and all the children con-
sequently illegitimate, they retain their mother's settle-
ment until they respectively attain the age
. of sixteen
years, when they will be removable to the perishes in which
they were born. Were this poor woman to desert these
unfortunate children the would be punishable as a rogue sad
vagabond under the statute 7 and 8 Vic., esp. 101, see. 6,
but for the man, the author of all the isery and sepses.
• incurred by his desertion, titers is ass criminal punishment
whatever. Surely this is not as it ought to be, for is ell
each cases, if the legislature will not lspliw these mar-
risme, they certainly ought at least to award the same
! punishment to the man as to the woman for deserting the
true of them.

COMM GOODS.—liisirmitsmot, MAT 20. —The luee.
tivity sad despondency maiaimed in this market for some
days past by the advice. from America continue without
mitigation. The opinion is grime ground with respect top
American affairs that this is the beginning of the cud, mil
that an iscremed supply of cotton may be looked upon as
certain. As to the quantity likely to come forward no one
is in a position to form the slighted idea, and the uncer-
tainty on the point is a ground for caution both amongst
buyers and sellers. In the cloth market there this bees a
little more anxiety to sell, which causes prices to
be very irregular; bat as • rule manufacturers
are moderately firm. The ladies advicea are more
encouraging, and but for the apprehensions of consequence,'
likely to arise out of • speedy settlement of the American
question we should have bad a good deal of business. As it
is buyers "do not see their way ;" they are desirous to
wait the advice* of the next mail, and then the next; and
business is paralysed. What little is doing is chiefly to
make up smell assorted orders and more of a retail than
wholesale character. Prices ere iu favour of buyers, but it
is next to impossible to give quotations, since no often large
enough to test prices have been made. There is quite is
little doing in yarns as in cloths. In these, as in the fabrics
they are to make, sellers would make concessions, but
there is no encouragement from buyers, who
coldly abstain from Maims., and there are no
offers worth nest for any kind of twist whatever.
The Cotton Supply • are still • experi-
ments as to the extent to which cotton grown in WU can
lea made available for the porpasa of 'planers and mann-
footmen. To-day they have had cm view samples of Ws
twist, spun from BrosA cotton, and also ri 80'., spun from
cotton grown in Madras, and the finest yarn yet attempted
from India Maples. The latter is an exceedingly Am and
satisfactory description of yarn, and it is intended to have it
woven into muslin., for which it seems well adapted. Both
kinds of yarn compere well with samples from American
cotton. These wimple! were shown on the Exchange to-
day, and wan regarded generally as very successful experi-
ments, and a good deal admired. They were spun by Mr.
Eirkpstrie, of Tyldealey.

OOTTON. —Lmatroot, iiAy 21—The business to-day
la again limited, but with s firmer woe. The Wes are 3,000
bales, including 930 Antrim" at 9d. to 124 d.; 2,000
Bunt, at aid. to 94d.; 70 Egyptian. at 11d. to lad. ;
et which 1,600 are fur epooalation sad export. The week's
Import it 13.970 bales.

WOOLLEN.—Lmtnit. MAT 20.—Ilas market this mon-
k% preented little animation ; the transactions is both
belle wore little Malt than nominal. There is not an yet
much disposition to operate for the autumn elude, and it in
now too late to expect further salts of spring goods.
Manufacturers of both chime of fabrics are curtailing their
*potations within the nanoweet remonisbie limits, and
thee, is on all heads a laudable manifestation of caution.

NANITFACTURES.—HooDuarina, MAT 20.—The
merigat has bean again let to-day, few bayous being Fremont,
and appearing to make up percale only, excepting one
Lam London, who barn operated to a moderate extent in
anion goads. Rather more deliveries hare been made in the
werehoomee during the week.

WOOLS.—lfonnaminn, MAT 20.—There is an abun-
dance of choice in the market, bat manufacturers only buy
sparingly, considering the present state of trade does nut
warrant them in making heavy pa/sham&

OORN.—Hum, MAY 20.—At to-day's market • mode-
rate supply of Eoglish wheat, which is taken off by local
millers at Is. to 2s. below List Tuesday's currency ; rather
more inquiry for foreign wheat et the reduction noted
during the week. Barley dull, and raker cheaper. Baas
and peas unaltered. Oats neglected, and prices in favour
of buyers. The foreign imports last week are as follows:
Wheat, 11,858 qrs. ; barley, 10,170; beans, 1,880 ; linseed
sad rapeseed, 2,521; oil oaks. 410 tans ; bones, 1,869 taus.
Lows, Max 20.—The farther decline in Mark-lane, to-
gather with the most hilliest weather, completely pate a
atop to business, end the advance obtained an Fruity over
last Tuesday's rates is lost today. There is a limited sale
for barley, beans, and oats ; value remains much bdore.
Livoiteoor Mat 20.—With • fair attendance al
millers and dialers at this day's market we have had a
slightly better isquiry for wheat at • decline of ld. to 2d.
per anal on the totes of Friday. Floor wee doll of sale,
sod most be allsd 6d. per banal lied ask Glimpse is the
small business pealing. Indian tarn was offered freely, and
buyers found no dithoolty in supplying themselves with
mixed American et 275. ex ship. Oats sod oatmeal were
both the turn cheaper. Pees gave way 6d. per quarter.
Beans and barley without change. The market closes with
• shade more firmness than of late.
LYNN, Mar 20. —The weather since Friday has been
all that could be wished for the growing craps. At our
Coen Exchange this day there was • limited show of
wheat, the trade was dull at Is. per qr. reduction.
Barley—Melting qualities, now showing; grinding samples,
the demand slow, at last Tunkley's rates. Beans and oats
6d to Is par qr. lower. Per imperial qr. to the grower:—
Wheat, white, new, 6211 n. to 6411 a per imperial bushel,
54e. to 575. ; ditto, red, 611 M. to Ofilbo, 525. to 54e.
Oats, $6113e. to 421 M, 245. to 275. Beans, old, 631bs. to
4151b5., 425. to 48e. ; new, 631 be. to WM. 425. to 465.
Nurcaeriz, MAT 20.—The weather is now everything
that could be wished for, and the country is said to he pro-
graming rapidly. At the market this morning we bad •
moderate show of wheat from the growers, sod although
several lots of foreign were withdraws from the market,
trade opened sluggishly sod Saturday's totes were scarcely
meinta;ned in the limited business done. Oar minas hang
been compelled to reduce flour to 40s. we redoes Norfolk
households in conformity. In grinding barley there wee
much less stirring, and whin sales occurred buyers had the
torn in their favour. Malt, unless fine,mglected. In other
articles little variation to note.

OATTLE.—Bnurnionmt, MAT 20.—We received a fair
average time-of-year su➢Pl7 of all bade of stock at this
day's market ; the trade eras Milady at late quotations.
