DILIADIFUL MURDEILZ-On Saturday night last. the house
of Robert Arnold, a tenant on the estates of Mr. Ormsby
Gore, residing on the lands of Llranommer, in the parish
of Cloone, and county of Leitrim, was attacked by an
armed party, who fired several shone through the windows,
whilst Arnold, his • ifs, child, and uncle (Robert Todd)
were eating their sup, er. One of the shots took fatal
effect upon the uncle, wbo instantly expire d. The assas-
sins then went to the house of another tenant, named
Flood, and also fired several rounds, without, however,
ceasing any mischief Immediately on the murder of
Todd being made known, Mr. William Lauder, of Mough
Rouse, Famish, the agent of Mr. Gore, proceeded, in
company with Mr. John Lauder, J.P., and a party of frolics.,
to scour the country in search of the miscreants, and suc-
ceeded in arresting several suspicion. charade-I, but none of
whom have been as yst sufficiently identified to warrant their
committal to gaol. It may be recollected that about twelve
months since Mr. Lauder was compelled to eject several de-
faulting tenants from his property, and to substitute in their
planes a more respectable class of persons, Arnold and Flood
being among the latter. A great outcry was raised at the
time by the anti-landlord price, and Mr. ome and his agent
were denounced in the most unmeasured terms of abuse as
" exterminators, " Sc. The murder of pow Todd is the re-
sponse to these base calumnies. It was only within the
last few days that Mr. William Lauder received instruc-
dons from Mr. Gore to found an agricaltaral school for the
benefit of his tenantry, and allotting a slam of money to be
given in prism. Large sums have also been spent in drain-
age and reclaiming land, so as to provide employment for
the people ; but all to no purpose. Mr. Lauder, however.,
is resolved to resist the murderous combination formed
spinet him, as he means to eject every disreputable tenant
from the property, and In the event of the system of intimi-
dation deterring others from taking the lands, he will hold
them in his own poesenion. With this object in view he has
arrived in Dublin, for the purpose of soliciting from the
authorities an extra force of police, to be stationed in the
neighbourhood of the recent outrages.—Dublin Evening
