excellent demand, and former rates have been freely paid
for white sorts, whilst the private operations amount to
6,000 bags chiefly at 9s to 9s 61 for mid white, with small
parcels ol better sort at lOs to lOs 6d. Only 750 pkts were
submitted to public competition, and sold at 8s 6d to lOs

eggs at auction all sold ; low pinky white realised Bs,
mid and good mid 8s 6d, ordinary yellowish 7s, and

372 bags were all sold at full rates; good and fine

of Malabar shot is 313 to 31d, heavy and
half-heavy 2id to 20, Sumatra 2id to ad. At auction
890 bags of Malabar were withdrawn, but 181 bags
Sumatra realized 28d. There is no Cassia Lignea to be
obtained, and high rates would be paid. The market
for Cinnamon is quiet; Ceylon, first sort at 2s 8d to 4s
sd, second ditto is 6d to 3s 7d, third and fourth is to 2s
Bd. Cloves are not much wanted; prices for Bencoleu

chief part of the Fruit offered was taken.
SPIFITS.—There has not been much disposition to
operate in low and middling sorts of Jamaica Rum this
week, and easier rates have been acceded to, whilst
the sales amount to 220 puns at 2s 43 to 2s 8d for 31 to
38 per cent over proof. The better sorts are wanted
by shippers and home dealers, whilst prices rule
firm at from 2s 93 to 3s for good, and at 3s 2d to
4s for fine and superior. For East India the rates
asked are Is 3d to is 3id, but few buyers are to be met

opposed to the appointment of the Rev. Mr. Kenny
as their parish priest, met on Saturday. They ap-
pointed a deputation to wait on the editor of the Tip-
perary Vindicator, and request of him to tell them the
real name of the writer of some letters signed " A.
Layman of the South," and which appeared in his
paper ; but the deputation failed in accomplishing the
object of their mission. The committee then pro-
ceeded to the transaction of private business.
During the last three nights, several farmers, who
were considered comfortable, and who possessed
money, left their holdings, situate in the immediate
vicinity of Kilrush, to the surprise and disappoint-
ment of landlord and taa•collector.—Limerick Ex-
aminer.

Several merchants to whom thousands of pounds
are due by the poor-law unions in Limerick district,
have proceeded to Dublin for the purpoose of soliciting
the Lord-Lieutenant and the Poor-law Commissioners
to devise means for insuring the early liquidation of
the enormous debts owing to them.—Limerich
Chronicle. _ _ _

At Killaloe petty sessions on Saturday, Patrick
Burke and Daniel Hogan were each fined the sum of
61., at the prosecution of Mr. John M'Hugh, officer
in charge of the revenue party at Killaloe, for having
been found in a house where illicit potale was in the
course of preparation. This officer also destroyed 400
gallons of potale adjacent to the house of the prisoners,
which is a distance of fifteen miles from his station.—
Limerick Reporter.
On Sunday night three fellows disguised entered
the residence of John Byrnes, at Kishyquirk, in the
county Limerick, and having dragged Byrnes out of
the house ibeat him unmercifully and left him dead, as
they supposed. They threw him into a ditch, where
he lay until found by his friends, by whom he was
removed to the infirmary, where he remains in a
dangerous state. The cause assigned for this wanton
outrage is, that Byrnes gave information of the re-
moval of corn by a runaway tenant.—Limerick
Chronicle.

Captain M'Call, 70th Highlanders, was robbed on
Monday evening of 201. It appears that whilst at
mass some person entered, his quarters, and broke
open a desk, from which two 101. notes were ab-
stracted. Two other 101. notes were also in the desk,
but were not taken.—Nenegh Guardian.
A fire broke out on Wednesday evening last, about

the hour of six o'clock, in the haggard of Mr. James
Kennedy, of Rodeen, near Lorrha, which was en-
tirely consumed•, together with his dwelling-house,
out-offices, &c. This is the third time Mr. Ken-
nedy's property has been burned. He is insured for
2001.' in the Alliance Company.—Tipperary Vindi-
cator.

BALLYHALE TENANT PROTECTION SOCIETY.—The
second meeting of this body was held on Wednesday
last, at two o'clock, and was very numerously attended.
Tenant farmers from several estates in the parish,
anxious to learn the object of this society and the
rules by which the:members are to be guided, assembled
at the rooms long before the hour of meeting. All
seemed to take the liveliest interest in the proceedings.
Fourteen new members were enrolled. Several notices
of motion were given for the next day of meeting,
when the committee will begin its work of usefulness.
—Tipperary Free Press.
some nights since four persons called at the house
of Lara, the residence of Martin O'Connor, Esq.,
and inquired if he was at home. On being informed
that he was not, but was shortly expected, they
left the hall door and returned by the avenue, but
had not proceeded far when Mr. O'Connor drove
up. He was instantly attacked, and robbed of 251.
A few nights after, a gang of the same ruffians pro-
ceeded to Fort william, in the same neighbourhood, the
residence of Patrick J. Tighe, Esq. (who happened.to
be in Dublin), for the purpose of robbing it. But before
they made any attempt to effect an entrance, they
were perceived by some of Mr. Tighe's men, who
gave the alarm.—Roscommon Journal.
ASSAULT.—Wednesday night last, three fellows,
armed with loaded butts, went to the house of Michael
Madden, a farmer residing at Clonkelly, and fractured
his skull. Madden's corn was at the time under
seizure, on a civil bill decree, and it was by parties
connected with the plaintiff in the decree by whom he
was beaten—two of whom were arrested by the
Crinkle police.—King's Couuty Chronicle.
HIGHWAY ROBBERY.—About one o'clock p.m. on
Monday, as a servant of Mr. Robert Dowd, of Brusna
Mills, was returning from Roscrea branch of the
Tipperary Joint Stock Bank, he was stopped within
a few yards of the spot on which a servant of the same
gentleman was robbed before. In the present case
the robbers took the sum of Si. in silver, and half-
notes to the amount of 9.51., with which they made off
across the fields, in the direction of Shinrone, sharply
pursued by a party of the ttoscrea police, under com-
mand of Constable Waters, but without success.—
Tipperary Vindicator.
About twelve o'clock on Tuesday night a fire broke
out in the premises of Mr. Crofts, woollen manufac-
turer in Bailey's-lane, off Mallow-lane, Cork, and
property to the amount of 7001. or 8001. was de-
stroyed. The premises were not insured.—Cork
Examiner.
