DUBLEV, SErr. 4.

We are extremely concerned to state;that in Conse-
quence of the exactions of the Tyt he Pro&ors, a bAly
Of people styling themselves Thrashers ofTy t he Proc-
tors' Corn, have appeared in the' hither(o peaceable
counties of Mayo, Sligo, and Leitrim. Their depre-
dations have been confined to the Colle&ors of Tythes
and theiT Miderli'ugs, and the reason assigned is, that
from the unprecedented rise in the tythes demanded,
the profit of their crbp 'centres 'almost entirely with
the ProUor. Threatening • letters, signed captain
Thrasher, have beeti sent to persons growing flax
and dais, insisting,, under'severe.pains, to leave their
tythes on the field, m,a no means to pay money.
tii6y alledge 2s: hd. pm- Peck on flax-seed is now de-
manded in4tead of is. (Y),d, formerly Paid, and three•
times more than usual fir meadow. With regard to
flax, the ra.w material of the 'staple manufacture df
the kingdom (if such evils exist as are complained
of), with all deference, we think the Trustees of the
Linen MarnifaCiure, whose exertions have been so
honourable as Well aS,-beneficial'to their country,
should institute ilu inqUiry, and froth thewell-known'
principles of our present Administration, if the
.com-
plaint ofethe poor,indlastrions tiller of the ground
'could reach the ear- of Government, they would, DO
doubt, relieve 'the oppressed from those rapacious
i spies, Whilst the clergy would receive that liberal
provision which the 'establishment of the country
amply atfords them'. A speedy investigation would,
imagine, Stop the progress of any further outrage;
and we shall think ourselves happy if we are in any
means instrumental in tranquillizing any part of our
often neglected conntry.—Dub.lEvelt. Post.
On Saturday.last a number of prisoners under a
strong escort at rived in town from Tullamore. They
are brought to be tried by court martial., the proceed-
ing's of which are begun. .
"On the evening of the 26th ult. a coffin with a

house of'G. Matthews, Esq. county Down. The lid
of the coffin was tied down, but by an aperture in

An unfortunate' incident occurred'' yeSterday
evening nearyortrifsh ! a large Brig in ,ballast sailing
from that port, off 'the Skerries; a number of rocks
abdut three miles from shore,. Was becalmed ; the
tide running rapidly' dbwn the channel, soon drove
her uponone. of these rocks, where she immediately
'bulged, In thiS deplorable situation she remained
but a short period—tite, rolling billows launched her
once more into the deep, when' site instantaneously
went doWn"to. appear" no more. Every person on
'bOard was saved but the Cap.tain, John l'ierce,'from
Peterhead, who 'was-killed by a, stroke of'the, boom.
I am inKtrined from god authority, that the greater
part of the Bfig 'wo.s his •ownljproperty. fle,sdiled

Fatal Vf-Wis cf Intoxicfltion.--On Monday even-
ing last, a farm being let in public,- landale, in
Furness, all the boys in the village assembled at the
place-of. sale,' and. were freely indulged with the
punch distributed amongst the bidders. TWo. boys,
m consequence, were carried to bed in a state of
extreme intoxication. One was exceeding ill and
speechless the greater part of next day, yet recor
vexed in the evening; but the other, a boy about'
nine years of age, the sim of William-Wilson, of
Dalton,.was!fonnd the next morning speechless, to-
tally incapable of voluntary, motion, and atleLied
with convulsions, which returned at short intervals
,with increasing violence the whole of the day, and
till eleven at night, when the disease terminated in
death !

Wednesday- se'nnight the body of. a woman was
taken out of the canal near the second bridge from ;
Liverpool. ,She'appeared to have been under water
