EXECUTION OF FIVE MEN AT NEWCASTLE.
Yesterday John Histon, John Mu Ilane,Thoatas
Kelly, Michael Kelly, and Timothy Shea, were
taken from the County gaol under a strong- escort,
to Newcastle, in this county, where they were ex-
ecuted pursuant to their sentence. These unfor-

tunate men arrived at Newcastle about three
o'clock yesterday, attended by their clergymen,
and escorted by sixty of the carbineers, and one
hundred of the, 79th regiment, from this city.—
Several thousands of the peasantry were as-
sembled to witness this melancholy sight; they
seemed to feel the awful lesson before them,
and the greatest order prevailed. The gal-
lows was erected in a large field, near the
town ; Iliston, Kelly, and Shea, acknowledged
their guilt, but Mullane and Keily declared

themselves innocent of the crime for which they
were about to suffer. One of the Clergymen
called upon Kelly, and warned him against dying
with.a lie in his mouth, when he still persisted
in his innocence, but admitted that he was sworn

"20 years ago, and also eight years back; but he
had no hand in the late disturbances. fie ad-
dressed the assembled multitude, and begged of
them to refrain from nightly meetings, which
would, sooner or later, bring them to the gallows.
On Friday last, Garrett Liston was sent to the
County Gaol, charged with the murder of Thomas
Buckle, a Crown witness, informations of which
were sworn before that active Magistrate, Tho-

mas P. Yokes, Esq.
[FROM THE KILKENNY MODERATOR OF JANUARY 3.]
On Sunday last, a Notice was posted at a
Chapel in the vicinity of Owning Parish, Barony
of Iverk, threatening 44 to extirpate any Land-
lord who shall not reduce his rents," offering
1500 44 for the head of " of an active and most
respectable Magistrate, which sum, the notice
stated, had been raised " among General Rock's
men, at ls. 44 a-head ;"—and adding, that. fifty
thousand men were ready to march into Kilkenny,
that the Wexford boys would join them, and
that they would spare'no man.
[From the LIMERICK CilosicLr of Wednesday.]

Etract of a letter from Ennis, dated becem

ber 31 Major Warburton's Police, sta-
tioned at Crusheen, had a good brush with the

nightly lads last night, at a place called
Rum). About two hundred banditti, fifty of
them mounted, went and demanded arms at se-
veral houses, but it appears their ulterior object
was to carry off a quantity of cattle and other
property, to prevent a seizure for rent. The
Police (only four) finding them so very-4)mile-
rous, called on William Butler, Esq.Of BUnahow,
and a party of the. Revenue Police, with Mr.
Anthony. Craigg, Revenue Officer, who very
spiritedly joined them. As soon as the banditti
were challenged, they took to flight, but some•of
them turned round and fired on the party, who
returned it, and-made 6 of the banditti prisoners."
The cause assigned' for the savage murder of.
Stack, at Cratloe Wood; on Christmas-day, is,
that it was reported he gave information which
led tc• the apprehension of M'lneruhy, the day
previous; for killing a man named Wilson. The.
murder of Stack has been further followed by an
audacious outrage, as on Monday night the
wretched hut in which he resided was levelled
with the ground, by a gang of ruffians. •
On Sunday night an armed baud of ruffians
broke into the house of P. Gorman, at Dohill.
near the• Commons of Rathkeale, and inhumanly
murdered him, and desperately wounded his
aged father, who, it is supposed, will not recover.
This diabolical outrage was perpetrated not far
distant from where Mr. Going was assassinated.

Ten houses near Bandon were broken into last
week, and robbed of fire-arms.
This day a respite was received for Martin and
John Grady, who were sentenced to be hanged
to-morrow, at Shanagolden, for taking a sword
from Mr. Edward Morgan, of Dunmoylan. •
On the second day of Christmas,at the Fair of
Dromore, a disgraceful and fatal quarrel took
place, which terminated in the death of 1 manond
the wounding of several others. As well as we
could collect the circumstances, the yeomanry of
that town,who were called upon toquell the tumult,
fired into a public-house, where some of the
rioters who had been throwing stones„had taken
refuge, thereby producing the unfortunate conse-
quences we have just stated. Au inquest 'has
been held on the body- of the deceased, but we
have not yet learned the verdict.—Several
persons implicated in the transaction have
been committed to Ornagh gaol, and the Magis-
trates of that neighbourhood are investigating this
lamentable businesS with the zeal and energy
which become their station, and which are due to
justice, and the peace'of society. Respecting
the origin and progress of this affray, there are
various contradictory statements in circulation,
which we decline giving publicity to at present,
as the affair must become the subject of legal
inquiry.—(Erne Packet.)

PUBLIC DEFAULTER.—It is said that the De-
faulter at the Navy Pay Office, who left this
country a few months ago, has•been stopped at
Charlestown, in America, and bad surrendered
about nine thousand pounds to the Agent of the
British Government who had been sent after
him, and was suffered to depart.
Letters from Munich state, that for some time
past several leading men of the Jewish Religion
have been permitted to hold meetings in that
capital: their particular object has not trans-
pired, although no Assembly takes place without
the presence of a superior Officer of Police.

SICKNESS AT ST. AUGUSTINE.-Accounts have
been received from tl►e above city, dated 23d of
November, at which period it was extremely
sickly, and though the population had decreased
from 3000 to 1200, the deaths averaged eight or
nine a day. The troops had evacuated the Fort
and retired to the Barracks, and of the Garrison
only six privates and Lieutenant Sickles were fit
for duty.

ticable. We are. happy to learn, however, that this incompara-
ble singer is so far recovered as to promise forthwith the ftil
fitment of her' engagement, which is for two nights.

Jos EMI FARINGTON, ESQ., R. A.—We have
the melancholy task of stating the death of this
Gentleman, whose talents in the province of
Landscape Painting have Icing been admired,
and whose personal merits were held in high es-
teem by some of the highest Characters in this
Country. His knowledge, judgment, and correct
taste, rendered him a leading Member of the
Royal Academy for many years, and those who
are best acquainted with his character are fully
convinced that in any differences which arose in the
election of new Members, or on any other matters,
he had always the honour of the Institution at
heart. He was a favourite pupil of WILSON, the
celebrated Landscape Painter, and in the earlier
part of his life acquired high reputation as an artist ;
but being wholly independent in his situation,
he resigned the pencil, except for the amusement
of his domestic hours. His private character was
marked by a zeal for genius, in whatever sphere
of art it might appear, and by a rare union of dis-
cretion and liberality. His knowledge of the
world, long experience, matured judgment,
even temper, and candour,induced all who want-
ed advice in the important concerns of life, to
resort to him for counsel, which he was always
ready to afford. He had possessed an uncom-
monly fine person in figure and countenance.
pis manners were easy, affable,. and Open,
and altogether he was an ornament to society
in all the relations of life. We are not acquaint-
ed with the particulars of his lamented death,
but we understand, that being on a visit in
Lancashire, his native county, and rdurning
from Church yesterday se'nnight, his footolipped,
and his/bead fell with such violence, that he
only survived two hours after this melancholy
accident. Mr. FAnisoTos had been married to
a Lady of a most respectable family, and death
had deprived him many years of this truly amiable
and intelligent Consort. Mr. FARINGTON, we
believe, was about seventy-two years of age.

His Royal. Highness the Duke of YORK ar-
rived at York House, in the Stable-yard, yester-
day afternoon, between two and three o'clock.
At five in the evening he left for Kensington
Palace, to dine with his sister the Princess
SOPHIA.

Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Du-
chess of CAMBRIDGE returned to Hanover on the
19th ult. from Gotha, in the best health and
spirits.

His INlA3Esrry, as King of Hanover, lately
caused to be presented to the Envoys Extraor-
dinary of the free cities of Hamburgh, Lubeck,
and Bremen (31r. Ss2pzdic Von Siener, Mr. Syndic
Guetschaw, and Mr. Burgo-master Von Groe-
ning) , who were deputed to gratulate his MA-
JESTY on his arrival in his German dominions,
snuff-boxes of considerable value, on which the
Royal initials were beautifully emblazoned in
diamond;.

TILE FITZWILLIAM Musmn.i.—A most eligible
scite for the erection of a building for this splen-
did Museum has been purchased by the'Univer-
sity of Cambridge. It is situated in Trumping-
ton-street, near to Peterhouse. Several valuable
additions have been made to the Museum in the
course of last year.

The Rev. J. LOMB ALE, of King's College,
Cambridge, is expected to succeed to the office of
Christian Advocate in the University of Cambridge,
recently vacated by the Rev. TuomAs RENNET.,
Vicar of Kensington.
