Our readers df the frightful ravages which the fever
had calnied in that town; we rrgtet to state, that
the letters received this morning continue to give
the most deplorable continuation of the ['mortis of
the disease. We have seen stetter of Mondby, from

special-oaq are lying from the town ; eight physicians have
arrived from Dublin within these two days, they have Cosa-
meowed their awful and laborious dory, by taking a list of
all those sick and cunvileiceat ; it is said they exceed Iwo

bee that have fallen victims to this dreadful malady. An
arrangement has been made to p the removal of
any corpse to the coutitry for interment, and it is rumoured,
a barrier will be erected outside the town to est off all com-
munication. On Fosieday, whilst celebrating mass, Ike Rev.
