Oriel of "So we would.") Therefore it is, gentlemen, that
thmogh I was not certain that my constituents who inhabit
this great county disapprove of the course I have adopted, I
determined to lal before them my resolution. (" We ap-

Union. (Cheers.) lem bound to tell you that the course
&pomading at Conciliation Hall is not that which, in my
opinion, would tend to the furtherance of Repeal ; and,
therefore, I propose to remain here a quiet and humble

3:ttfetren, I did not mistrust the feelings of the people of
the county of Limerick when I made this my determination ;
but, at the same time, I am bound to tell you that the indica-
tion of public opinion, as regards the other portions of the
kingdom, may lead to the belief that public opinion is rather
adverse to the course I have pursued. (Cries of " No, no.")
Nevertheleas, though I have received great kindneie from
other parts, still I hold myself responsible fee any course I
may talcs to no individual, to no body d men, but to my
constituents of the county of limerick. (Great cheers.) As

tion. Bat we may be permitted to ask, how long
the legidaeare will legalise these meet afflicting
mammas ? The same journal states, that at
the petty sessions of Nenagh, on Monday, informations
were ordered to be taken against several persons oa the lands
of Longhorns, for an alleged riot and rescue of cattle die-
trained for rent by Kr. Blake Butler's keepers. The rescue
consisted in the cattle, pigs, &c., being placed in the parish
pound, and the riot consisted in a few boys shouting, and a
few women joining. in the chores, and a stone thrown, the
witness not knowing by whom. At the same eeesions an
order for an indictment was granted against a poor man
named Cummins, for enclosing land on the mountains near
Ballyhane. The witness in this case only heard that Cum-
mins had enclosed the ground lately. Cummins swore, and
°Mated to proclaim evidence, that the ground was enclosed for
several years.
Disrxnas IN TUE WEST or IRELAND.—Mr. Coghlan, a
gentleman of property tesiding in Mayo, gives the following
deplorable picture of the condition of the people in ha
neighbourhood :
To my own knowledge, the diet of those employed on the public
works Is the Min heart ar inside of sainted, tainted potatoes, mired

TN. CLOPS IN TNI SOUTII,—A well-informed corre-
spondent, speaking of the crops in the neighbourhood of
Milltown, writes—" You may, without exaggeration, say
that the potato crop is virtually gone. There wal not be a
potato in the country on the let of December. The wheat
crop is of a fair average description. The barley sown here
is net worth speaking of. Of the oats, I must say, that the
yield will be much lighter than was hoped for—the grain
not having properly tilled. I do not think that the eats
grown in this locality will weigh more than 361 b. to the
bushel." An informant from Killarney states, " that the
potato crop is entirely gone; but that cora, particularly
wheat, is above an average." A correspondent from
Keel, after bearing testimony to the promising
prospects of the white crops, says, " that the
potatoes generally have severely suffered everywhere
about him from the effects of the blight and disease ;
the description called ' English Red' has alone escaped from
their maga. This may be not unimportant for the con-
sideration of farmers in the selection of seed for future sow-
ings." From Castlegregory we hear that " the potato crop
has suffered most severely ; in feet, it is, we might say, gone.
Last year we escaped very well, but this season we are worse
off than any other localities. In the fields sawn Late, the
produce is not bigger than marbles, and even those are
diseased." The same discouraging intelligence relative to
the potato crop reaches us from Listowel. The guardians
have officially stated that the crop hue been totally ruined.
Score potatoes are not considered worth digging.

SCOTLAND.
THE suit of 8001, raised by the members of the Church
of Scotland, in accordance with the recommendation of
last General Assembly, has been remitted to Geneva for the
use of the pastors.
liLLICTIONIESING IN SNETLAND.—Mr. Dundee, accom-
panied by Mr. Crawford of Edinburgh, arrived here by
steamer on Saturday, last week, to prosecute his canvass.
We are in hot water (says the John o'Grouts Jotirnal),
both parties going a-head in right earned, and both 'searing
the public of certain victory."
A CELLD POISONED WITH WRISEY.—A circumstance has
occurred at Seamed, Ayrshire, which ought to operate
as a warning. On Monday, a Mn. Shaw, whale son,
about three years of age, had been restless during the
previous night, administered a quantity of whisky to him,
fa the purpose of making him quiet. The dose seemed to
produce the etfi ct desired, as the child fell into a profound
sleep. Not seeming to awake when the day was far ad-
vanced, some of the neighbours, who felt alarmed, suggested
the propriety of calling a doctor, to which, however, the
mother objected, remarking that he would soon waken.
About five in the afternoon, tea hours after the dose had
been administered, and stall no manifestation of the child's
awaking, a medical man was sent for,
. who, upon first sight,.
declared that the child had been poisoned, and asked what
he had got ; upon which she confessed that she had given
him about half a glum of whisky in the morning to quiet him.
Vomiting was immediately resorted to, but the child died in
the course of an hour.
THE NORTHERN Magma AT INVERNESS commenced
en Thursday, under the most favourable auspices. There
was a great attendance of spectators, aided no doubt, in a
great measure, by the exhibition of the Highland and Agri
cultural Society of Scotland, appointed for the succeeding
week, in the same ancient burgh. There could not have
been present less than from 2,000 to 3,000 persona. The
usual competition in athletic feats was gone through, to the
great amusement of the assemblage, and all seemed to be
highly pleased with the proceedings of the day.
A GOOD BIAISPLE.—A readinroom has been established
in the small town of Peebles, where the Times and Daily
News, the local papers, with various other publications, are
received to the gratuitous inspection of all who have time and
inclination to read. It is chiefly supported by the more
affluent inhabitants of, and connected with, the neighbour-
hood.
