DUBLIN. At6UST 3.
The news of the reimbursement of the Cuffe•street
Savings Bank di positors has been received here with
the s'ncerest gratification by all parties.
The Tipperary Vindicator gives the following
statement :

Friday last the romantic locality of Cullohill, near Bor-
risoleigh, was the theatre of a most painful scene. This
property has lately come into the pouession cf Mr. John
Parker, of Ballycolliton, near Nenagh, and wisbirg to get
rid of small holdings and amalgamate farms, he issued an
habere ; and to carry out Lis intention was on this day ac-
companied by his brother, and his law agent, Mr. Dsxon, of
Nenagh. At half-past 8 o'clock they appeared on the :and
with a gang of about 20 of the notorious levellers of Nenagh.
About 9 o'clock the worthy sub-inspector, Mr. Malone, with
about 40 of his police from the different stations, was on the
spot, and shortly afterwards the sub sheriff, Mr. Wing, on
hie way to open the commission in Nenagh, with deputy
Mr. Gaon, and his chief clerk, Mr Burrows, also arrived.
Mr. 'Dixon, the law agent, with Mr. Burrows, the chief
clerk, and "the crowbar brigade," with half the police,
filed to the southern district of the ancient castle and leveled
14 houses, and turned the poor inmates out upon the high-
ways. The Mum. Parser, with Mr. Gason, and • party of
police under the command of the sub-inspector, took the
northern district, directing their route towards a rick of turf,
in hopes of discovering a nest of arms, but with-ut tuccess,
and, melancholy to behold, in • few hours 470 human
beings were dispossessed from the townlauds of Cullohil,
Carnsgreen, Curraglikeal, Glanarisk, and the bog of Monk-
enan. Out of the above 470-229 were re-admitted as care-
token ; the remaiaing 241 were left without shelter.
The Clare Journal of yesterday states that at a
similar eviction scene, which took place at Miltown-
Malbay, on the same day (Friday last), 50 families
were dispossessed, 28 houses were levelled, and 160 in-
dividuals thrown out on the high road.
The Banner of Ulster has the following :
EILBST PROM:CIL—In the neighbourhood of this town.
and in the counties of Down and Armagh, several fe lds of
barley, and one er two patches of oats. have already fallen
by the hands of the reapers. In Armagh especially the
grain crops are remarkably well matured, and there,
at least, the continuance for a few weeks of the present
splendid weather would do much to make reaping general.
The hay crop for miles round Belfast may be said to be cut
and ricked. . .

The llama journal mentions the arrival of a quantity
of coals from the newly-worked Irish coal mine of
Ilurlangh Bay.

PAREMURST REFORMATORY PRISON BURNT.—An
&hireabe fire broke out on Tuesday night, about eleven
o'clock, a' Parkhurst prison, and the fact becoming known at
the barracks at Parkhurst, and in the town of Newport, the
military were speedily ordered to the spot, and all the fire
engines at command were forwarded with such help as could
then be provided, with the endeavour to extinguish it. On
their arrival they found that the prison new engine had n-
eedy been placed hors de combat Iron a disarrangement in
her machinery, and that all their efforts must be directed to
preserve the surrouiding buildings. The fire was then
raging with the utmost fury in en extensive range of build-
ings erected at the rear of the govt rnor's house, and called
the Dormitory. The fire was first discovered by the urpou
in the cells of the convicts, who shrieked for aid as they be.
gars to discover that the building was on fire ; all of them
ware providentially rescued from a horrible end, and placed
either in the chapel or in the square, under a strong guard
of soldiers. Some of the prisoners, however, had left their
beds in such a hurry that they forgot their clothing. The
many partitions in this building, and the floors, being chiefly
composed of wood, furnished the materials for a mighty con-
flagration, which might have been seen for miles ; and until
the immense roof fell in, and in some measure smothered the
dames, all attempts to extinguish it were useless. It kept
all parties fully employed until late in the morning, and the
bare walls alone are now left standing. We cannot yet
learn how the fire originated, but from the fact that *rural
of the prisoners IMO found ready dressed, and that there
was no appearance of their having gone to bed, it is a rongly
suspected that the building was fired by their own hands
some hours previously, and continued sending until it broke
oat into flames, Two of the prisoners are in close confine-
ment, having not only implicated themselves but others in
this incendiary business. The loss is estimated at 3,0001.
INFANTICIDE.— A case of infanticide ha occurred
near Cumnock. A middle-aged woman was overtaken by
the pangs of labour on her journey along the public road,
and applied for shelter and assistance at the house of Mr.
James Houston, Mansfield Cottage. She represented her-
self as the wife of a railway labourer, and said she had come
from Thornhill in quest of her husband, who had deserted
her, or at lust had not returned home so soon as hie wife had
anticipated. She stated that she had lodged for some d'sys
with friends who had erected turf huts on the line of the
Glasgow, Dumfries, and Carlisle Railway, in course of form-
ation between this and Rirkoonnell, and that she had left
tome children in the huts, and wen on her way to New Can-
nock to procure some provision for herself sad them. Mrs.
Houston treated her with the greatest humanity, de-
spatching a servant to New Cumnock,. for the double
purpose of procuring the services of medical man, and the
requisite provision for the children and to be left at the huts.
A doctor was promptly in attendance, and in the course of a

that, in spite of entreaty and remonstrance, she in the short
epees of two hours actually erne, and took her child, two
half-quarter loaves, and some flour, and set out on her return
to the hats. Nothing farther was heard of her for five or
six dayu when the body of a child was discovered in the
Min, se the-much between Ayrshire and Dumfriesshire, a
silo from Mansfield Cottage. The pollee, of course, were
Januar on the alert. Dr. Meldrum, Mrs. Houston, &a.,
'doodled the child, Mrs. H. knowing her own clothes with
which It was dressed. A search wee comneneed for the
unnatural mother. She was still at large on Saturday, anal
it was suppooed she had rude her way to Iralaat 11 KESS
