STATE OF IRELAND.

•
CoN\AUGNT.—The time for half measures, or
for FAnporisiur,,, with regard to the greater part of
.his province, has passed. Not only horse and toot,
but cannon have been despatched to the west. On
Friday, two pieces of flying artillery hit Island-
bridge for the • County of Galway. By a l'roda
'nation, dated last 1 uesday, the entire ofthc County
of Clare was put under the protection uf the Peace
Preservation Act. The li,llowing setter from Ath-
lone, which is a little picturesque, and, we rather
think, somewhat coloured, will, however, give the
reader a tolerably good view of the state of this pall
of the country.

Extract of a letter from At!,:ione, March I:
" This town, for the last wed, has presented a
scene that I do not reeelket to have been equalled
at gay period during the war ; the continual pas-
sage.of troops, of all arms, two or three differ:rat
tte.e.:siptions of a day—their baggage, bilk:tiny,
trum'petinipi, and d summing:4, give dreadful note
of prepareoloaj. ;Re enemy, however, does not
seeidin the leaA intitailetui by it ; •the hay..! ap-
peared iu faluith.b!c numbers almost every night,
• and each night in a different place ; they have taken
:d1 the arms in this. and the county, of Roscommon,
treat igeotle and simplo, and throughout a great
part tit the county•of Galw.,y—hitherto the Lein
stersside of the .tilaninon had been remarkably quiet,

The following is the mo4,reccut intelligence films
the coutify of Galway
" Lwav, MARCH 4:—lf we were to
all ,the communications that lie before us upon the-
subket of thoso marauders, our whole paper would •
nut be sufficient filr the purpose. In the neighbour.
hood of 'foam, 111 r. libtkeney, of Ahhert, and his
relative, Mr. William Pearsse, have been unceasing
in their exertions, which, ailed by Captain O'Keere,
of the 73:1 regiment, have. been productive of the
best effects.. In u lute niglnly patrule though the •
county. near HOrseleap, they took. twenty live poi.
soners, .six guns, tour cases of pistols, and three
blunderhosxes, and sent twelve. of the prisoners to •
MAIO. Gaol. They tell in with the Hey. Mr.
O'ltorkc, who, with a party of police, had also
taken some prisoners, one of whom- presented and
snapped his gun ut the policemen, but without
eact ; this ruffian was, Mier a short struggle,
wounded, and . brought in a prisoner, with his
tams.

At the Roscommon Assizes on Thursday, the 24
instant, Atatthew Nlannison, with a great many
others, Rilkonmen (the names of seven are
eunnu-
rated), were found guilty, the !brine' capitallc, the
latter of transpurtal:!e felonies. Thad,. Flardy and
Patrick Guff were also found guilty, and were or—
dered fin. execution on the 18th instant.

" Since writing the firregoing, we are happy to
learn that the military force of this county will be
increased to five thousand men on Tuesday next.—
Every village of any note will have a party of dm
army stationed in it, so that we may now hope to
see the return of peace, order, and confidence to our
afflicted country."

It is with p.ei n we have to mention that Ribbon-
ism has begun to rear • its head in the county of •
Westmeath. Oa the night of Tuesday last, a con-
biderable number of thesedeluded miscreants attacked
the dwellings of three-persons ofsome respectability.
within three miles of this town, and stripped them
of their arms. Thby then took the direction of
Shannon-bridge, practising as they went along the-
same species of plunder on many of the inhabitants.
