DUBLIN,. Ay G. 7.

On' Wednesday last, in consequence of a previoUs
altercation, a dUel- was fought at Fairy Hill, Wear
Clonmell, between Mr. C---s of the 50th Regi-
ment; at present recruithik GlOMirell, and Mr.
of the Tyrone Militia, quartered there..
On the first fire both parties escaped unhurt, but on
the second shot, Mr. H. received the ball-of his.ad-
versary a Mule above the right knee. This conc-
quently terminated the affair. The -ball was simi'tly
after .extraCted by Dolor E,AoLE, Staff Surgeon -of
that distri&.

Yesterday morning GrORGE JomrsoN, • a coach-
Maker, of. SOuth Frederick-street, put an' end to his
existence by discharging a pistol through his body.
Alderman STAMER, gs. Coroner of the City; who
presided at the Inquest, gave directions that- heshould
be interred in the centre of four roads, and a stake
drove through the body,- according to At of Pill !la-
ment.

MriCHAM FAth.—This scene of annual diversion
commenced yesterday, as usual, opposite Mitcham
Green. It was well attended by those itinerant shop-
keepers who occasionally form a kind Of Country
Cheapside, where every article- of fancy is ranged to
attract the eyes of the fair damsels who.may have
long wished. for the opportunity 'of proving the libe-
rality as well as the love of their sweethearts. A
very formidable party of quadrupeds, such as lions,
tigers, -SiTc. Were at their old post, claiming the con-
tributions of the. visitants. The scholars from seve-
ral. Ladies'. Boaramg Scheels at Mitcham, and from
Tooting, promenaded theYair, and appeared highly.,
gratified.. ' It will continue fOr three days.
Monday evening,. about eight o'clock,youna
Wonian, genteelly dressed, threw' herself into the
New River, near Sadler's Wells, when,she imme=.
diately sunk. A soldier belonging to the Guards
plunged in' after her, and brought her safely, on
share. - She refused giving any account of heitelf,
but being scion Inown, she was taken away in a
coach by a Gentleman, who rewarded the soldier
for his humanity. . . .
Sunday morning, between' two and three O'clock,
some villains robbed the shop of Mr. 1-tore';'-shoe-
maker, in Charter-house-lane, •by wrenching two,.
of the window-shutters and. cutting. out part of the
sash, with two.panes, of glass,- at which it 'is sup-
posed a boy entered and delivered out the goods.
The. noise alarmed Mr. Hare, whO looked out of the.
first floor window, and saw fivemen standing against
his shop, but was fearful of coming down, and re-
peatedly called the watchmen, without. being, able to
obtain assistance 3, and it was not till his shop was
stripped Of goods to the value Of 201. and the villains
had effeEled their escape, he could. muster courage
to come &Ain.

An elderly. Gentleman in the vicinity of the Me-
tropolis was tinlitckily -discovered in his attempt to
escape from the late fire in'Chandos-street, by his
&dies being entangled .as be was descending from
a lower window he remained for some time with
his legs suspended towards the street : frour this
sittiation he was forciblY drawn, just as the flarnes
burst into the apartment. The circanstanCe:be-
came known .athongt his neighbours, and the -Cler-
gyman at {note famed for .wit than 'grace)
.With whom he had had some dispute,, declared that
the first time he saw him in the Church he witild
advert to his,escaiie in a pointed manner. The cu,
•riosity of the Parish was excited, when, on the f)1-
IJwing Sunday, the old Gentlemans-took his seat
near the pulpit. A long .pause preceded the cone 7;
mencement of the sermon : the Clergyman keeping
, his,eye fixed on that seat, took for his text the fbl,-
lowing passage of St. Paul—" Verily he *as pluck-
ed,like a brand from the burning." The et; `t
was. electrical, and the confusion of the hoary
debauchee may be more easily 'conceived than 4lt;
-icribed. •
