mining lie most secret parts -of it, and being di.-
appointed in finding any fire-arms, except the two
guns already mentiened, they tlireateued to put
Mr. Barry, the son of the owner of the house, to
death, if he would not disclose where the arms
were concealed. As if fur the purpose of execut-
ing their menaces, they placed this young gentle-
man upon his knees, and presented their pistols at
his head; the miscreants, however, could not pre-
vail upon him to make any disclosure, nor shake his
resolution in any respect. Mr. Barry, the elder, is,
advanced in years, and was confined to his bed by
illness; his chamber, however, was searched, as
well us every other room in the house, while impre-
cations and menaces were furiously expressed in
order to frighten the family into • confession of
having tire-arms. Not succeeding in their favou-
rite purpose, the villains compelled Mr. Barry,
jun., while on his knees, to swear that he would not
prosecute or molest any of the party. The arms
which they lied were in choice order; the pistol belts
and minor equipments suitable every way, and some
of the party carried two guns. After having sworn
Mr. Barry in the manner stated, and shattered with
their sledges every thing that came in their way,
they withdrew, declaring, that they would repeat their
visit. The same night Mr. Gibbing', who resid-s in
the neighbourhood, had his house entered, and his
arms curried away. The respectable class of
farmers and middling gentry in that part of the
county of Cork, had their arras taken from
them, during the (sit Assizes of Cork. All these
facts are well known to the Government, who are
adopting the most • strenuous measures compati-
ble with the existing laws, for ussertiog the au-
thority of the State, and preserving peace. The
difficulty hitherto has been to find Magistrates to
direct the military ; for, in some districts, the Ma-
gistrates are few, and molly of those old and infirm,
and there are not persons of sufficient consideration
in others, to he intrusted with the commission of
the peace. We believe it is intended, in all such
cases, to grant commissions of 'the peace to the
Captains in command of detachments. Reports
were in town to-day, that Blarney Castle near Cork,
had been attacked and robbed of arms. We base
not been able to trace the report to a proper autho-
rity. It would not surprise us, however, from all
that we can learn, to hear of particular instances of
outrage being attempted and committed with extra-
ordinary audacity.
THE YEOMANRY.
The Government have resolved to avail them-
selves of the services of the yeomanry in the north
of Ireland, and have intimated their wishes upon the
subject, through the different Brigade-Majors. On
Tuesday last • communication to this effect was
made to Col. Blacker's battalion of yeomanry, in
the county of Armagh : it was received with three
hearty cheers and an unanimous determination to
extend their services to any part of the kingdom.
This fine body of men are between three and four
hundred strong, and have long been distinguished
for appearance, discipline, and general efficiency.
The intention of Government is to employ the yeo-
manry In garrison duty, and by this means he
enabled to bring a greater number of the regular
troops to act in the disturbed districts; a measure
naught with great wisdom, and likely to answer
the end proposed.—( Evening Paper.)
PROVINCIAL. INTELLIGENCE.

LtMsatck, NoVEIifICR 13.
Between the hours of two and three o'clock last
morning, upwards of a hundred of those deluded
marauders came to the toll-house at Goody Turn-
pike, and requested to have the gate opened, and
when the keeper got op to perform it, they rushed
into his house and took his blunderbuss, and want-
ed to get more fire arms, and when he assured them
he had not any more, they diligently searched the
house, and finding none,' they went off iu the dare-
, lion of Newcastle.

The house of Mr. John Grady, of Doringstown.
was again attacked on Sunday night last by an
armed body of men, who, we are sorry to say, suc-
ceeded in depriving him of his arms. They threat-
ened to burn his house if he did not give them up.
A few nights since, about eight o'clock. • party
of armed men entered the house of Maurice Hew-
son, at Loughal, in this county, and plundered it
of every portable article. They went to work very
deliberately, having placed sentinels on the door of
each of his workmen's houses until they effected
their purpose, then fired ■ shot and went off. It
was rather unfortunate that Mr. newton was (ruin
home, or they would have got a warm reception.
