CARLOW, TUESDAY.—The efforts of the Orangemen to
seize on the representation of this borough have been
already baptised in blood. At half-past one this morn-
ing, a poor man, by trade a nailor, named Richard
Cahill, fifty-six years of age, was assailed, almost in cold
blood, by a sprig of Orangeism, named Robert Wilson,
son of Mr. Michael Wilson, a shopkeeper of the
borough, and stabbed in the breast. The poor man
was passing alone through the streets, on business con-
nected with his trade, when he was met by a party of
Orangemen, one of whom (the assailant) shouted,
" Who'll say a word against Alexande ? " Poor Cahill
unfortunately cried out "I will," when Wilson rushed
on him, and deliberately stabbed him with a clasp knife
in the breast. Another man, named Keogh, ran to his
assistance, and received a blow from Wilson, which in-
flicted a slight flesh wound. Cahill was at, once con-
veyed to the police-office, and thence to the county in-
firmary, where he was committed to the care of Thomas
O'Meara, Esq., M.D., who pronounced that the wound
had penetrated his liver. Both Cahill and his assailant
were at the time perfectly sober. He now lies in a most
dangerous condition at the infirmary. Wilson and three
others having been taken into custody and presented to
Cahill, he immediately identified the former. His
dying declaration to the foregoing facts was then taken
by R. Tuckey, Esq., R.M., and Arthur Fitzmaurice,
Esq., J.P. It is feared the poor man's demise will take
place within a day or two. He has a wife and helpless
family of five children dependent on him. The gentle-
men of the Religious Equality Association and of the
Tenant League, who have been endeavouring to procure
Mr. Alexander's return, will, no doubt, feel proud of the
party to whom they have allied themselves. Printed
placards of the letter of his Grace the Catholic Arch-
bishop of Tuam, to Mr. G. H. Moore, have been sent
down from Dublin, " cut and dry," and are now being
posted up through the town.—Evening Post.
SOUTHAMPTON EMIGRATION DEPOT.—The building
for the reception of the Government emigrants who will
leave this port, is in every way suitable for the object in
view, viz.—the comfort of the emigrant. Attached to
the building are a dispensary, offices,cooking
gm
washing-houses, fumifying-rooms, &c.Thebmidaisngis

with every regard to the convenience andrcomfort of the
emigrants. There will be about 320 emigrants leave in
each of the ships, and an experienced surgeon will be on
board each vessel. A master and matron are appointed
to the depot, to superintend the general arrangements,
and two policemen to prevent irregularities.
SUICIDES IN PARlS.—Suicides still continue to be very
numerous. The day before yesterday two soldiers of
the sth Light Infantry were on leave, and went out for
a long walk. On their return at midnight they had oc-
casion to pass over the bridge of the Invalides. One of
them suddenly stopped, and giving his papers to the
other, leaped, without saying a word, into the river. It
was impossible to render him assistance, and he perished.
In the course of the day a man leaped from the Pont
Neuf and was drowned ; an invalid, aged 72, leaped into
the river from the Quai d'Orsay—he was rescued, but
the shock was so great that he is not likely to recover ;
finally, a young woman, aged 25, flung herself from the
Pont d'Arcole, but was got out.
FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE BRIGHTON RAILWAY.—The
inquiry into the circumstancesitouching the death of Geo.
Hughes, aged 28, a porter at the Old Brighton Station,
at Redhill, who was killed by the up express train from
Brighton, on the 6th inst., has now terminated in the
jury finding a verdict of "Accidental Death." The
foreman added that it was their opinion that the death
of the unfortunate man was caused by an anxiety on his
part to perform his duty; and the jury were of otpoinai
at
o
that all the up trains before passing the goods station
Redhill after dark, should sound the clear
wished that the
whistle
warning. And they also, in conclusion,
attention of the directors of the railway might ia s a
be called
to the necessity of sounding the whistles at all the sta-
tions.
