ANOTHER MAW SHOT MAO AT THE POLICE.--CLOTCHTL.
APKIL 7.—On Sunday night, about ten o'clock, an unfortunate
occurrence took place at 31righors, between Fethard and Killena.ule.
l'he circumstances are these :—A man named lioulahan, who had
' been under the protecti.in or a magistrate, and had become nn ap-
prover against some peruses for burning the premises of Walter
Skehan, at Coolab, contrived to withdraw himself previous to the
last assizes, in consequence of which the Mortlestown police had
directions from a magistrate to be on the look-out for him. Acting
in pursuance of those directions, they repaired to the house of
Boulahan's father on Sunday night, to make the necessary search,
and having been admitted, they called for light, but could not ob-
tain any. Shortly after, however, the breath of a person from a
corner of the house where no noise had been made previously was
heard, and was immediately followed by a blow of a turf-lone,
which one of the Police warded off; it was then strongly suspected,
correctly as it afterwards appeared, that the person for whom the
constables had been in quest was in the house, and one stationed
at the door was cautioned to let no person out; by this time llou-
khan made his way to the door, and struck another violent blow of
the slime, at the man (Talbot, the younger) who was stationed
there ; a struggle consequently followed, in the course of which the
carbine of the Policeman, while parrying off a blow of the slane
from Houlalion, unfortunately went off; and the contents lode.)
iii his neck. It is unnecessary to say that the ill-fated man was in-
stantly killed ! Next day the calamitous business underwent a
nine investigation by Nathaniel Taylor and Richard Milieu.,
Curs. Magistrates, assisted by John 11'ilcocks, Esq. Chief Con-
stable, the result of which was, that it appeared to those gentlemen
to he purely accidental. At the same time en inquest was held on
the body by Mr. Thomas L. Baker, Coroner, at which the before_
mentioned gentlemen were present, and the Jury's finding was,
that the deceased hail, to the best of their belief, come by his death

FORGERY.

NA V; JMA.

. .......
Jiik 11W Wagerer, aged 27, wee indicted for forging and utter-
ing as true, an order purporting to be drawn by William itidley
and Co., for the payment of 'bsol. on John Bond, Sons, and Patti-
sail, well knowing the same to be forged and counterfeited; and
wilt intent to defraud Benjamin Bond and others, his partners.
Mr. Ano Len t. stated the case for thermsecution, and observed
that be should more particularly tall their attention to the second
count in the indictment, via, the uttering, Al the manufacturing of
the bill he might nut be enabled to bring home so directly to the
prisoner. Therefore it was important for him to chew that he well
knew the bill was forged. The Learned Counsel called
Bolt, who deposed that he was porter at the Old Hum-
mums, Covent-garden, and remembered that, on the 20th March, a
gentleman who lodged in the Old Rose, a room in the Old H um-
mums, desired him to fetch a porter from the Temple, to go on an
errand for him. Witness said lie could do any thing a badge-
porter could do; but the Gentleman replied that he must have a
ticket-porter. Witness Asked what porter he was to bring; the
Geolkenrui said a man of the Hopkinson; but witness not hnding
that porter, he brought soother, named Burt. Witness could not
my that the prisoner was the man who sent him for the porter. lie
did not say what he wanted the porter for. When he came back he
took Burt into the prisoner's room.
John Burt was a porter in the Temple, and remembered the last
witness coming to him on the 20th March, and desiring him to go
to the Old llontinuins. \Vitale:as went with Bolt, who took him
to the top of the house at the Old Ilummnius, and knocked at a
door and said, " Sir, I could not find Hopkinson, but have brought
another porter." It was then about half. pw.t ten in the morning ;
he was then shown into the room where the gentleman was who
had cent for hint, and who was the prisoner at the bar. He gave
witness 2e. to get a bill stamp, in Long-acre, which lie came back
with. Prisoner then gave witness a check, with directions to go
with it as it was addremed, and there receive the money for it, and
Ifterwienls go to the Black Bull, in Leadenhall-atreet, and take
hint a place oil. Brighton in one of the afternoon coaches. The
gentleman said that he was going to breakfast at Charing.emes,
and ordered the witness not to go up stairs, if he should return be-
fere he (the prisoner) did, hut to wait outside of the house. The
order was then put in, purporting to be on Pattisall and Bonds,
'Change-alley, which the witness said was the same he received
from the prisoner. The gentleman wrote on the back of the check,
four MU. notes, and 110 sovereigns," he ordering the witness to
receive the amount in that way. On arriving at Pattisall and
Banda', witness gave the check to • gentleman, who took it to a
hack shop, and then came and asked him where he got it from.
Witness told hint, and he was then shown into a back room, and
saw Mr. Pattisall, who accompanied hint to the Old ilumniums ;
when they got there the prisoner had paid his bill and was gone.
At fume o'clock he returned to the Oki Hummums, but he did not
then see the prisoner, but he saw hint at Bow-street on the 22d of
March.

As we :dread! hnvr Panorsmn, 'harems. and COSMOrtnia, the
inveetor of rn Elhihitinn lately opened in Bond-stri—t, under the
tea title of Nstuoranta, deserved, we thought, some credit for his
idinnyt to refine upon these established sources of rational
sintisTment. Hasler, in consequence, visited his exhibition.
ream a e are of opinion that the attempt is altogether ingenious and

THE ARMY.

THE NEW LEVY.

In die arrangements which have beet made respecting the New
Levy, it has been deemed expedient to direct that one half of the
recruits should be failed in Ireland, and the other half in Great
Britain. The want of employ is more felt in the sister kingdom
than in that rountry ; the rt;,,ulation, therefore, will afford relief to
some hundreds of the necessitous, unemployed, and able-bodied
men in that country. No returns have yet been received front the
different recruiting panics in the United Kingdom, but it is coitti-
dimity expected dui' the grwhi apportiooed to Ireland will be
raised mutter than the proportion which has been allotted to (treat
Britain. _ _ .
