SERIOUS °USAGE IN A ROMAN CATHOLIC CAME-
, DRAL.—The following appears in the Freeman's Journal :
—"At a few minutes to eight o'clock last evening, while
the Metropolitan Church, Marlborough-street, was
thronged to the utmost verge of its spacious bounds by
an immense congregation, piously engaged at the con-
clusion of the jubilee, the solemn ceremony was sud-
denly interrupted by the perpetration of an outrage of
the most atrocious character. A man of middle age and
mean appearance, who had taken his seat at the lower
end of the front nave, suddenly sprung up, and jumping
on the form on which he had been sitting, with a heavy
cudgel loaded with a ponderous iron ferule at the end,
struck a gentleman who happened to be sitting before
him a tremendous blow on the head—the gentleman
fell stunned on the floor. The fellow then proceeded to
deal blows indiscriminately on those of the con-.
gregation immediately near him, and amongst other s
struck down a lady. The scene of confusio n
that, ensued was such as may be easily eonceivea.
Several of the congregation
made a rush upon the
ruffian ; but it happened, however, that some memb.rft—
of ' the police, not on duty, but taking part in the .de-
votions, were in attendance, and he was quickly seen red
by them, as well as, perhaps protected from serious con-
[ with the Rev. Messrs. Murphy
sequences. In a few moments after the alarming con-
fusion thus created had arisen, the Rev. Mr' IrWin,
people were desired by
ofen etrhgeyvtaostalleaoyn and Burke, appeared in
the church, and exerted themselves with the utmost
ofp

and they at once obeyed. The persons who were

was with no small that the very large force of
assembled could protect the prisoner from t' •

furiated multi was being taken to tho sta-
tion-house, where he was charged tion_ , and locked up for the
night. It was ascertained that his name is Patrick
Feehan, resident at Barry's-lane Blackpits, and a
brushmaker by trade." .
