IRELAND.

Dumas, Nov. 1.
The Booming Mail, in its publication of yesterday,
gives a prominent place to a string of resolutions
agreed to at a meeting held to sympathise with Lord
Roden, and to condemn the course which had been
taken by the government in reference to that Prange
nobleman.

The military are still proceeding towards the scene
of the expected demonstration in the north. Another
detachment has left town this morning, bat it is not
now expected that their presence will be required, as
the imding persons among the Orangemen sue call-
ing very earnestly on their brethren to obey the in-
junctions of their grand mister, Lord Roden, as
oonveyed in his address, and to abstain from their pro-
poeed " march.*
The Queen's College of Galway was opened on
Tuesday.

THY ASSASSINATION op Ma. CAGE.—Two men
named Edward Farrell, of Cruces, sad Patrick Kelly, of
Esdrim, have bees arrested by Head Constable Baird; both
of them are charged with aiding sad melting in the murder
of Mr. C..ge. These two persons, with others previously
apprehended, were brought up for examinatiou on Friday
last at Ferbens. The prisoners underwent a lengthened
examination, after which Duffy. Bruning, Farrell, and
Kelly were main sent back to Tullman, gaol, but the
prisoners Calera and Daly were discharged. We have
rearm to believe that the authorities an in possession of in-
formation which is very likely to lead to the conviction of
the guilty rutin, but lest it might defeat the ends of justice
we deem it prudent to withhold particulus for the present.
We have learned that Mr. John Briscoe, the county or..
collector, has levied the entire amount authorised by the
Lard Lieutenant's warrant, off the towalands of Eadrim and
Cregian for the support of the additional police force sta-
tioned then since the murder.—King's County Chronicle.

THE BILLOCOHEY TRAGEDY.—Sub•lnspectors Coe
and Hill, with a party of police, on Saturday night lest,
proceeded to Behan, and arrested four more persoca charged
with being concerned in the above conflict. On Monday,
several magistrates assembled at Tullamoore gaol ; John
Julian, E,q , crown solicitor, was also present. After a
lengthened inquiry, several of those in custody were dis-
charged. The Lord Lieutenant has withdrawn the licenses
to carry arms from all those persons In Ashen who are
suspected of being implicated is the outrage.—King'sCounly
CAroniele.
RESISTANCE TO POOR BATES.—The first marked in-
dication of a determine) resestanee to the doles of the rate-
collectors was manifested in our county on Wednesday
last. It appears that a collector of the Callan Union some
days since seised seven cows in the Knocktopher electoral
division, where the rate is 2s. 6d. in the pound, and con-
veyed the animals to the Kilmeganny pound. The bracts
were to have been sold by auction for the amount of the de-
mand in Hllmaganny on Friday ; however, about 400 men
assembled in the village, and when the cattle were driven
out of the posed at half-pact one o'clock to be " canted,"
the mob eurroudied them end drove them off in triumph.
The small party of police stationed at Kihneganny were on-
der arms all the while, and ready to interfere, but the col-
lector using so large and determined a mob present, did
not call upon the constabulary fur assistance, preferring to
permit the rescue rather than that lives should be lost.—
