AM

Rude by Capt. ,Christie Lord A lvanley, a most excel-
lent and N ell contested race, and wun only. by !mita neck. by,
Capt. Christie's horse.

On Friday, during the races on Chatham Lines,
Mr..SHHUB3OLE, or the. Coach and Horses public-
house, was rode over by one of the lace horses, and
had his thigh broken. -

On Saturday se'nnight a most shocking murder
was perpetrated on the lands of Ballinakill, near
Shanagolden, county of Limerick. Some proctors
and farmers met on that day, to ascertain the value
of tithes they had taken on several farms in that
neighbourhood, when at the hour of; 12 o'clock
they Were,attacked by a number of men in arms,
dressed in shirts and head-bands, to conceal their
faces : they were commanded by a man iu„cdoured
clothes, who daringly, without any cencealment,
seemed to dire& all their proceedings. They first
ordered a Mr. GRADY and his valuators to quit the
lands immediately: Notwithstanding their quickly
doing so, this fellow ordered his party to fire and
pursue, but providentially, knowing the country
well; they 'eluded those sanguinary pursuers, who
frequently took short cuts and fired, to prevent their
escape. The second party were not so fortunate :
they were attacked in the same manner ; one unfor-
tunate man was first wounded by a musket-ball in
the arm, which scarcely took effect, when a second
shot perorated his neck, and gut out at his mouth,
of which he instantly expired, and with him, ano-
ther ill-fated valuator, whom they also shot through
the body. Mr. LINDSAY, of Tarbert, happened to
ride by at the time this atrocious scene was perform-
ing, and has declared before the Coroner, that these
villains were about eighteen in number, p4,...a1_0ff
into one of the adjacent fields after the murder,
wliere they performed the manual exercise with mi-
litary precision.
IMPROVEMENTS IN WESTMINSTER.—They have
begun the demolition of the old houses that stand
between Palace-yard and the
.River Thames. The
whole row, in which is the ancient Star Chamber,
-'is to come down. The perSpeClive view of West-
' minster Bridge thus-admitted from the new opening,
north of the Abbey, is extremely flue. An embank-
ment is to be made in the River, to form a terrace
walk. This ought to be sufficiently broad, and. to
be carried the whole length of the Parliament build-
ings, between the SPEAKER'S Garden and the River.
The Royal entrance to the House of Lords, com-
menced last. year, remains much in the same state.
Workmen have begun to restore the basement of the
north front of Westminster Hall. St. Margaret's
Church, we understand, is to remain, an account of
the great expellees very recently incurred in its re-
pairs. Parliament voted, within these few years,
11,0001. for that purpose. It is in contemplation to
enrich its exterior with the new cement, so as to
make it groupe better with the Abbey. The cost of
repairing and restoring the inside and outside of the
Chapel of Henry the Seventh, is estimated by pro-
fessional men at not less than 3,7,0001.
