[FROM THE CORE INTELLIGENCER OF. TUESDAY.]
OUTRAGES NEAR DONEB.AILE.—OR the night
of Thursday, the 17th, instant, about nine.o'clock,
a large party of armed insurgents attacked a farm
houseron the lauds of Ballyellis, about two miles
from Doneraile, the property of
,Clutterbuck
Crone, Esq. After demanding arms, 'they broke
the windows and furniture, and beat a man who
was in the house, whom they directed to go to
Doneraile, and tell Mr. Crone if he did not
give up the business .he had undertaken
against -_them, they would settle him ; they
then sa,id. they would burn the house, and
accordingly, thFust up a coal of fire at the thatch,
and went off.- They. then proceeded to the
house of Win. Oliver, on the lands of. Ballyellis,
and, after demanding his arms, and having sworn
him, on being informed that he gave up his arms to
Mr.Cronc, they, knocked him down with the butt-
end of a gun ; from thence they proceeded to the'
house of C. Connors, of Lough Eagle, whom they
swore, and got from him a sword-blaileand some
gunpowder. They then proceeded to the house
of Andrew Croker, tenant. to James Hill, Esq. and
with pistols presented at his bead, swore him if
,he had• arms, and also swore him to deliver a
message, to Mr. Hill, to reduce his. rents one-
third ; if he did not,do it,,they would make him
do it ; they would watch him day and night, and
if they did not find him, ,they, would go to. his
house if tie had a troop of horse to protect him
one of ..them was_genteelly dressed, had a white
belt on, ,pnd ,his arms were very bright. They
then, preFeeded
.in a body to Mr. Hill's farm.
house„i 4.4 e lands of Kilcolernan, broke' the win.
dows, ..and dp,stroyed.all the furniture. and',dairy
utensils„, spilled- a great quantity of Milk and
cream, and. beat, almost to death, amen named
Shea, he'rdirnan to Mr. Hill, and killed a quan-
tity of `Votiftiy. The above Party went to the
houSeqif 'MO Barry, Esq., at Ballivouran, de-
inanded liras:hot got'none, and went off with-
out cOininittling any violence;. they were also at
Mr. Sherlock's,, at Ballyboura: :Immediately on.
an' account of the above 'outra,des having reached
Doneraite, Mr. Crone proceeded with
,the Rifle
Brigade 'to scour the country for several miles in
every direction. which the- Insbrgents were sup-
posed to have gone in, and remained out until
n4r four o'clock on Friday morning ; but the
daifknesi of the night, and' their having kept the
Ffields, prevented the military from discovering
their retreat.

We understand that the vicinity of Garris-
toWn, on the borderg of Dublin and Meath coun-
ties, is infested b f an armed banditti, in very
considerable numberqf who parade every night,
'aiid:ala-rni the surrounding country by their vol-
lies of muspetryt.: About eight days ago they
burned- down twelve houses! which, in addi-
Win t4.lroimer;-'etztrages,, make the number of
honses thus destroyed twen(y-six.—OnThurs-
day last, they shot two dray-horses belonging
to Christopher Rooney, publican, of Garristown,

.We received this morning the French Papers
of Wednesday, from which we 'give extracts in
our 'preceding columns. Advices bad been re-
ceived on Tuescliy in Paris, from Trieste, to the
13th instant, which stated that the Russian Ul-
timatum had not yet been acceded to by the
TurlOsh Government. On the contrary, it ap-
pears by the intelligence from Russia and Turkey
that the commencement of hostilities is not far
distant; and this opinion receives additional
strength from the fact that the king of Wun-
TEMBERG, ,who was stated to have gone to Pa-
tersburgh in order to be invested with the com-
mand of a Russian army, has just ordered a levy
of 4,000 young men, born in the year 1801, to be
raised in his dominions.

German Papers to the 14th instant arrived
yesterday. They contain intelligence on the
question between Turkey and Russia of the same
warlike character as that previously extracted
from the French Journals ; and the same con-
tradictory statements prevail respecting the vo-
luntary evacuation of Moldavia and Walachia: by
the Turks, and their approaching occupation by
the Russian army. Some accounts, dated Jan.
14, express an opinion that it would be known
" within a week that the Russians had ..passed
the Pruth."

Private Letters from Paris, dated Wednesday
afternoon, state that the Funds had risen consi-
derably. At that time the Five per Cents. were
as high as 851. 20c. ;,,Bank Stock, 15401.; Ex-
change at one month, 251. 25c. ; and at three
months, 25f. 10c.; Neapolitan Stock was 671.

RevOlutions and Insurrections, the founding of
Codes and the proclaiming of Constitutions, are
now become such trite and familiar matters, that,
except on very striking occasions, we are apt to
pass over the details of these events with as much
coolness as the accounts which occasionally come
home of a new coral-reef observed in the South
Seas, or a volcanic island thrown up in the West
Indies. Were it not for this cause, we should
think the late declaration of the King of Pon-
TOGA'', acknowledging the independence of
Chili, a document well deserving attention as il-
lustrative of the present state of affairs in govern
ments emphatically called constitutional. That
his MAJESTY should be forward to recognize the
pretensions of any revolted South-Ametican co-
lony, might excite some surprise, if we did not
know how subordinate a part is allotted to the
Sovereign by the present Portuguese Constitution,
in settling foreign relations ; but a profession by
the Most Faithful King " that he is well per-
suaded of the legitimacy of a Government, the
existence of which is proved by the fact of the
obedience of the people," does indeed appear a
most remarkable feature of the times, a sianalin-
stance of the pliancy with which manarchs who
haVe once unreservedly submitted to a popular
regime can accommodate their sentiments to the
prevailing hdrnour of the public. Such perfect
condescension is accompanied, we must hope, by
sincerity as perfect : yet his MAJESTY can
scarcely be Apposed altog-ether comfortable in
`the reflection that he himself' holds his sceptre,
according to his own acknowledgment, by a title
which may. be oucelled to-morrow
,morning.

Charlestotr Papers irrited this morning to the
/Bth Decembr.

[Froin the Paper of the 28th Decetacr.]
ST. SALviiion.—Capt. KENNA RD, of the ship
Maria 7'afion, has favoured us with Bahia Papers,
to the 4th tilt., and with the following verbal in-
telligence:—
."
On Saturday, Nov. 3, there arose a dis-
turbance at St. Salvador between the European
and Brazilian Portuguese : the latter being dis-
satisfied with -tile present Administration, had
made an attempt to force out of office the Gover-
nor and all• his adherents, but owing to disorder
and bad management (though in sufficient force
to have carried their point), they suffered several
of their leaders to be made prisoners, who, were
confined on board a frigate, to be sent to Lisbon.
The Brazilians still held possession of the most
formidable fortifications in the Bay on the
Bth, and 'th'reatened 'if the frigate—was got
under weigh that they would sink her.—
All business was suspended from the Id to the
Bth,' in consequebee. - The European inhabitants
were so panic struck when the alarm was first

given, that they 'fled in every direction ; severa
who.- could not finil boats to -put them: on b0:441,
the shipping, plunged into the bay. • 'l'h©
had so far subsided on the Stlt, that. the .custo.
House was open -; there 'were but. two 6r :thae
lives lost_during the disturbance The lirailiats
were still holding' out,; and it was-supposed thlt
they expected aid' from the adjacent country."

In our Paper of Thursday we noticed briefly;
but as fully :ns-4- merited„ the statement which
has been published to the name of Miss-Love-
DAY, as a reply to her father's. Petition'. We
.should .not have thought. it worth while to restnne.
the subject, if we had not obseried that the
composers of .this answer had made it the vehicle-,
of
,a slander against British 'society, which can
only proceed fromyythe grossest ignorance, or from
a malice ill becoming thOge " virtuous and re-
spectable persons" WhoM -Miss Loveday has
selected for her future companions and advisers.
The
_young lady is rnadetdasSert that • she left
her father's house after her 'returty from Mlle.
Iteboul's, because:. she apprehended that he
" meant to carry her to England,:where the Ca-
tholics are not treated as.the Protestants are in
Fiance, and where She wont& perhaps be Com
pelted to. adhere to,-ProteStantism."—"•Prance
Svitl not be'riStonislied at the voluntaryconversion
of Miss IMeday," smelt are the words :set-.doWn
for this -young. EngliSliwoman, ." nor at the re-
sistance which she has slietvit to. her -father 'on
the 'subject of' her religion, since they are the
effects of drat=' liberty of conscience established
in this- noble country. Stranffers will always
flock hither, because -they will find themselves"
lend their daughters 'and- nieces, the ,'Writer
should have added) " more free . than in court-
tries where the Catholic religion is mark.ed,with
the seal of reprobation." if Miss Loveday re--
sided in England till her father carried.. her. to
the. Continent in -1816, she must have known
perfectly well that she couldno.more be " corn-.
pelted to adhere to Protestantism," or ill-treated.
for professing the. Catholic Faith, her -,own
country titan in France, Those, therefore_,Tho
have invented
.this pretext ?or her conduct,
have ascribed biller a fear which could .scarcely
have been 'entertained, even by a child, ac-
•quainted with English customs, much less by
a lady of mature age, and sufficiently ripe in
judgment to decide between Bossuet and the
'':Protestant Doctors.. 'Whatever differences .may
exist among us on the subject of politiCat re
strictions, in private life at least the
.Gatholic
endures no grievance the fire-side there is
no cry for emancipation ; and perhaps motet :than
half the.persons who may peruse this -article
are themselVes
.acquainted with faMilies com-
posed' of Catholics and ProteStants !Mug' to
("ether under the same' roe& in the most
•
perfect ham:Jetty' and girterest mutual -regard.--
When the writer of 34iSS Loveday's statement
asserts that '•the Catholics in-England are not
treated .as the Protestants are.in -France, it would
be well if he informed us whether he alludes to
the-North or the South of France, to the present
times or to the year 1815. Far be it from us
unnecessarily to revive a history,' odious at best,
and embarrassed and obscured by the Conflict-
ing accusatiens of exasperated parties ; but we
think that in extolling the superior liberality and
magnanimity 'of the French it would have been
only common discretion to select some point in
which their character was more triumphantly
irinnaculate than the treatment of Protestants
by Catholics.-With respect to MademUiselle
Reboul and her pupil, the. statement does' little
more than leave them where it found th€m. The
writer labours hard to make it believed, Aotigh
he does not dare 'to assert directly, that. the pre-
ceptress, at the time 'wheir-she• sent Mr.Loveday,
such positive assUrancei'ol the articleOfitAion,
did' not knOW of "the pryigress his .daugh
making in Critholic'doetrines. It might be per-.
tinently asked

ference by ,the teacher,.? And if • MadentOiSelle
Reboul kne* that Miss Loveday was engaging
herself so deeply, in Catholic divinity, while her
imagination .was becoming exalted by a,conStant
attendance on the ceremonies 'of that church, did
it never occur to the virtuous Prece.Ptres's.that the
fattier might to 'be apprized of these circum-
stances? and. by what equiirocation did she fortify
her conscience, when she afterwards (by her own
letter, or that of her sister) bade him entertain
no fear on the subject of relinious belief? And
did the niece,, the child of fourteen—did she,
too,.convert herself to 44 the religion of Alfred the
Great and Edward the Confessor ?" Was'she
also turned away froM 'Protestantism by the
",thunderbolts" of «the Eagle of Meanx ?"
and was, she held competent todecide• on,re-
ceiving-, sacraments at the hands' of CathOlic
