LIMERICK. OLT. 6.

Yesterday evening. an unfortunate affray took
place at Guoge,near Ca►tie-Connel, between a party
of voltuitcers, from the Militia, about to juin one of
the regiments quartered in this city, and some
country people, in which we are concerned to find
that twu men (brothers) of the name of Ryan were
killed ; one of the soldiers received so severe a beat-
ing, that he now lies dangerously ill, with little
hopes of recovery.
Captain Warburton, regulating officer at this port,
received orders, on Yriday night, froniViee-Admiral
Whitshed, for the removal from the city gaol of the
eight Spanish prisoners of war, who fre to be con-
veyed on board His Majesty's tender, Pemver,nce,
11 in- aL the Pool, for the purpose of carrying them
to one of the &pelt for prisoners of war in England.
On Sunday last, about eight o'clock, a nun of
the name of Wm. Shannahan. returning home to
Donoughmore. was attacked on the way, by Pa.
trick and John Kean, brothers, in consequence, it
is supposed, of some previous dispute, who beat and
cut him in a most dreadful manner; he was yes-
terday brought to the county infirmary, and, on ex.
%mining him it was found he hull tecerved thirteen
cuts ou his bead, and his body greatly bruised.
