IRELAND.
DUBLIN, JULY 15.—The Irish elections decided yesterday
were the most remarkable that have yet been determined.
Mr. Charles Gavin Duffy, of the Nation, and Mr. John
Francis Maguire, of the Cork Examiner, both enter Par-
liament, the former having defeated Sir T. N. Redington,
the late Irish Under-Secretary, and Mr. Lambert, tbe Con-
servative candidate in New Ross; and the latter, after three
former defeats, having at length succeeded in obtaining pos-
session of Dungarvon, his opponent being a candidate of his
own principles, the brother of Mr. Flaherty, the Member for
Galway. Mr. Sadleir, in Carlow, and Sir T. O'Brien, in
Cashel, have resumed their former seats, and beaten their
Tory opponents. In Limerick the result is not what was
anticipated. Mr. Russell, the Liberal Protestant and Free-
trader, who was defeated on a former occasion by Lord
Arundel, having, contrary to general expectatation, succeeded
in getting in with Mr. Potter, another most liberal and
popular candidate, in supporting whom all parties were
unanimous. Mr. Charles Townley has ousted John Patrick'
Somers from Sligo; and Mr. Butt has obtained the seat
lately held by Mr. C. Anstey in Youghal.
DREADFUL- RELIGIOUS AFFRAY IN BELFAST—'
The lE.
The Belfast Mercury, of this morning, has the following
account of an alarming and fatal riot, which took place in
that town last evening, and which appears to partake of a,
sectarian character :
" One of the most fatal affrays that have occurred in Bel-
fast for a long period, took place yesterday evening—it was
still more lamentable than the York-street riot, both in cha - !
racter and consequences. The origin of the affray seems!
almost unknown to any person, but so far as we can learn, its
arose altogether out of the circumstances of the previous even-
ing in Cullingtree-road. A number of Roman Catholics and
Protestants who inhabit that street had quarrelled, but the;
matter seemed to have been quelled. The girl M,Laughlin, who was wounded in that affray, having been removed CO
the hospital, a rumour of her death was circulated among
the Roman Catholic population of Barrack-street and Cul-
lingtree-road and round about Old Pound. Whether
by pre-concert we cannot say, but almost in a Inas3
they turned out, and commenced to wreck the houses of
the Protestant inhabitants in Cullingtree-road. This having reached the Orangemen of Sandy-row, they assembled
at once to defend their friends, and the two parties meeting,
a most fearful engagement ensued. Both parties appeared
to be prepared for a determined encounter, as a vast number
of them were armed with guns and pistols; those who were
not-so armed tore down brickbats from the dead walls and
gathered stones from every quarter. The commencement
of the riot was about eight o'clock in the evening, and it
began so suddenly, that before the constabulary were aware
several thousands were fighting in Durham. street and OP
to Mill-street. The balls were flying like hail, and the
aspect of the people was murderous. It was
quite im-
possible for the constabulary to make head against the de-
termination evinced on both sides, and even could they
have succeeded for a little, they would have been imme-
diately overwhelmed by reinforcements that poured into the
Roman Catholic party from Mallan's-corner. In the mean-
time fighting was going on in Carrick-hill. The rioters
were armed with grapes, pitchforks, spades, shovels, and
every weapon that hand could be laid on. It was VII.
_
rently the rioters in that locality that poured upon the
police in Durham-street. The mayor, Mr. Tracy, and
other magistrates, came on the ground immediately they
received notice of the encounter, and proceeded to
