IRELAND.-HORRIBLE MASSACRE.

(From the Limerick Chronicle.)
Another foul blot this day in the character of the pea-
santry of Clare—another and more hideous deed of blood
to be recorded in the black catalogue of murder and out-
rage, which have now made the whole county one scene
of terror and desolation. Within a few hours after the
Representative of his Majesty had passed the borders, and
before the Lord Lieutenant had arrived in the chief town
of the county, five policemen were brutally murdered in
the noon-day by a horde of savages, who absolutely stoned
their victims to death on the public road !
This sanguinary outrage thus originated :—Easter Mon-
day is generally a holiday, or " pattern" (patron-day), in
the country; devoted to idle amusements, if not mischievous
frolics. On this day the police party at Donlin, which is
a silent and remote station in the direction of Ennistimon,
had information that emissaries from the insurgents were
actively engaged in administering!, unlawful oaths to the
peasantry. Five policemen accordingly left the barrack,
and came to a house where they actually caught two fel-
lows in the act of swearing the inmates to the Whiteboy
oath. These two they made prisoners, and were bring-
ing them in custody to Doolin, when the country people
assembled in great crowds and attacked the police with
stones. The police retreated before the multitude, which
soon increased to a moat riotous mob, armed with every sort
of missile, which they flung at the party with deadly aim.
The police continued firing at. the assailants until all
their ammunition was expended. Weak from loss cf blood
and the numerous blows received in the conflict, the police
new became an easy prey to their enemies, who, rushing
down with a horrid yel►, closed upon the unfortunate
men in overwhelming numbers, seized their fire-arms,
trampled the police to the earth, and literally stoned them
to death.

The bodies of the five policemen, which presented a
most revolting spectacle of barbarity, were removed on
Tuesday, and conveyed on cars to Ennis, to be exhibited
before his Excellency.
On Tuesday the Lord-Lieutenant visited Tulla and other
disaffected parts of the country, after which his Excellency
returned to Ennis, and dined with M. Finucane, Esq.,
Provost. The High Sheriff presided at a public meeting
in the town to vote a suitable address to the Marquis of
Anglesea, on his arrival in Clare. This day, Wednesday,
is fixed fcr a general meeting of the Magistrates and gentry
to consider the state of the county and make a representa-
tion to his Excellency on the subject, after which thAt
illustrious Nobleman proceeds to Loughcooter Castle, the
re.itlence of Lord Viscount Gort.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—This afternoon Sir Charles Wetherell made his
entry into Bristol, amidst the groanings, hissings, yelling.,
and cries of " Reform," of thousands of the citizens. This,
I think, will make the Blue party look still more blue, and
cause them to tremble for the return at the next election
of their representative, Mr. Hart Davis.
I am, Sir, yours respectfully,

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
New York Papers to the Ist of March (two days later than
those previously received), have arrived by the London line-of-
packet-ship Hannibal, Captain Hebard, at the North and South
American Coffee-house. Canton Papers, to the .sth of December,
have also been received.
CANTON.
It is reported that the Mahommedans in the territory of Ele
have again rebelled, Chang-wi-hior's son, wife, and brother,
having risen to revenge his death. A million of tads have been
demanded from the Canton Treasury, to be sent to the seat of
war. On the '23d ult. the arrival from England of the Corn.
pany's ship Ann and Amelia was announced in Canton, and in a
few minutes it was known that she was the bearer of orders from
the Court of Directors for the retirement from office of the Pre-
sident and two senior members of the Select Committee.
COMMERCIAL REMARKS.—Opium.—.There has been a spirited
demand for Pataa and Benares, both for cash and time. Prices
have risen from SSO to 885 dollars for cash, but the inquiries
have not been so brisk for these last few days. Some sensation
has lately been produced in our market by the report of the
failure of the Cotton crop at Canton. In one of the northern
districts prices have improved. The Select Committee have in-
creased their exchange with Bengal to 204 real. The holders of
raw Silk show a disposition to reduce their prices.
The American Papers are void of news.

A NATIONAL LOSS.

The elegant, the swan-like, the fascinating Maria Foote
is so more. Start not, gentle reader, with horror and
alarm—our fair favourite has not yet, thank Heaven, ex-
chan&fed her mortal loveliness for immortal brightness ;
but she is lost for ever to her edmiring patrons the public,
being removed to a higher, and, as we sincerely hope, to a
happier sphere. To drop the metaphorical and speak
plainly (if such an event can be spoken of by us, her
ever-fritliful champions and friends, in the ordinary
language of congratulation), we are duly authorised to
announce the rwirriage of Maria Foote (now Countess .of
Harrington) to Charles Stanhope, Earl of Harrington, Vis-
count Petersham, in the county of Surrey, Baron Harrington,
of Harrington, in the county of Northampton, a Colonel in
the army, &c. &c. tar:. The nuptial ceremony was eel,-
brated at his Lordship's seat, Ehraston, near Derby, on
Thursday last, in the presence of the lady's parents, and
two of the Noble Earl's distinguished friends. There are
many circumstances connected 'with this unlooked-for
elevation of our fascinating favourite, that makes it a source
of great exultation to us, as we are sure it will he to all
who knew the amiable and delightful Maria, now Coun-
tess of Harrington, in private life. We shall conclude this
notice of the happy event, which, we repeat is duly
authorized, by wishing the Noble Ertl and his beautiful
bride many years of uninterrupted bliss ; and sincerely do
we hope that nothing may ever occur to mar the flattering
prospect of their future happiness.—Age.

Miss Foo'e, the well-known comic actress, previous to
her marriage with the Earl of Harrington, which took
place last Thursday at his Lordship's seat, Elvasmn Hall,
near Derby, settled the fortune which she had realised by
her profession upon her father and mother (who were
both present at the ceremony) for their lives.

MR, 11UNT AND THE SPITALFILLDS

WEAVERS.

The report of Mr. Hunt's assertion, that the weavers of Spital-
fields disapproved of the Ministerial Reform measure, because
they were not to be benefited by it, has caused a rather strong
sensation in that district, for there is a general feeling amongst
the weavers that to them the benefit would be more immediate
and extensive than to almost any other class of persons in their
district. Very large portions of the parishes of Spitalfields,
Bethnal-green, and others adjoining, have been laid out in
streets, consisting of small houses, occupied solely by weavers,
And built expressly for the purposes of their trade. So far from
being adverse to the proposed reform measure, therefore, they
feel a direct interest in its success, and would be deeply disap_
pointed by its rejection ; and yet, as some of them have said, they
are now held up to the public as throwing dirt in return for the
boon proffered to them, just as they were,some time ago stated
to have been parading in front of St. James's Palace, with
tricoloured flags, when they went to carry a loyal address
to the King and Queen: The fact appears to be that in
every _parish df the Tower Hajnlets numerous meetings
have. been held, and petitions and addresses in favour
df the ministerial plan of Reform invariably and una-
nimously adopted. These petitions of course, included the wea-
vers, and were very numerously signed by them in their respec-
tive parishes, and many of the respectable persons among the
weavers, including their Committee, thought, that having al-
ready signed these petitions, there would be an impro-
priety in any particular movement of their own, which might
look like making themselves out as a class excluded from their
fellow-parishioners. Some of them, however, thought it de-
sirable to givo.expression to their feeling as an independent body,
and having formed themselves into a Committee for the pur-
pose, they called a general meeting of the trade, at which an ad-
dress to the King wa. agreed to in support of the measure sub-
mitted to Parliament by his Ministers, and denouncing in strong
terms its interested opposers. They are about taking steps to
effectually undeceive the Member for Preston, and the public
generally, with respect to their sentiments.

value of five pounds each, knowing the same to have beer,
feloniously stolen, was ignored by the Grand Jury, to the
evident satisfaction of many persons present, who were with
difficulty restrained by the Judge from expressing their
feelings. The case of this young man excited the deepest
interest, as well in the public generally, as in a very great
number of his friends, of the first respectability, by whoa.
his character was held in the highest estimation. As a
proof of the latter, we need only state that no less than
thirty-five gentlemen came voluntarily to Bristol, in order
to attest his integrity and uprightness, One carne from
Newcastle-upon-Tyne, one from London, one from Wind-

BRISTOL SPRING ASSIZES.

(From the Bristol Mercury.)
The commission for holding our Spring Assizes was
opened on Saturday last, by our Recorder, Sir Charles
Wetherell, who arrived in this city about four o'clock in
the afternoon, escorted by the Sheriffs, and the usual reti•
nue of police officers, and accompanied also by an im-
mense number of the populace, many of whom had gone
to Totterdown to wait his corning. His reception, Low-
ever, was far from being courteous. His active opposition
to the ministerial plan of Reform has called forth the re-
probation of by far the greater portion of the community,
and completely reversed the little popularity he had ac-
quired in this city by the part be took on the Catholic
question. The first manifestation of popular feeling was
evinced at the moment when the carriage in which the
Recorder was seated arrived opposite the Blue Bowl, when
he was saluted with an universal groan, which evidently
Startled him with surprise. fie, however, quickly recovered
himself, and affected to he unconscious of the scene by
which he was surrounded. As the cavalcade proceeded
onward, the crowd augmented at every step, and their vo-
eiferations became at intervals most deafening. At parti-
cular spots, where groups of spectators had placed them-
selves, the carriage was assailed with hisses, which were
answered by the renewed groans of those who had most
pertinaciously followed it from Totterdown. On Bristol
bridge, in High-street, and Broad-street, we do not re-
member to have ever seen so many people gathered to-
gether, except at an election.
During the time the learned Judge was descending from
his carriage, the hissing and groaning were violent in the
extreme.—ln the Hall the tumult was renewed, accompa-
nied with the stamping of feet, when the Recorder said,
"If any person is taken into custody for disturbing the
peace of the Court, and brought before me, I will instantly
commit him." A new mode of annoyance was then re-
Sorted to, and the reading of the commission was finished
amid violent fits of coughing. Ai the conclusion there
Were loud cries of " Boroughbridge" raised, and three
cheers were given for Reform. The sweet voices then ac-
companied the learned Judge to the Mansion-house, where,
after he had entered, he came to the window, rather unad-
visedly we think, and continued looking at the populace
for several minutes. A hundred fingers were immediately
pointed at, and he was greeted with groans and laughter,
the latter of which the learned Judge returned. We are
happy, however, to state, that amid all this excitement
no greater acts of violence were resorted to than such as
we have detailed ; which, perhaps, is mainly attributable
to the excellent conduct of the police officers, who, we
have been informed, were wisely forbade to interfere ex-
ceptin the event of the populace proceeding beyond the
mere vocal expression of their feelings.

FRIDAY

THOMPSON r. BARCLAY and Co. and POWLES and Co.
The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment in this case. It
came into this Court by way of appeal from a decision by his Ho-
nour the Vice-Chancellor, upon a demurrer put in by the defend-
ants to the plaintiff's bill, which demurrer his Honour allowed.
Mr. Alderman Thompson (the plaintiff), in his bill charged that
he had paid various sums of money to the defendants, in conse-
quence of fraudulent representations made by them respecting a
contract for a loan to be made to them by the Government of
Guatemala, in South America.—The defendants, Barclay and
Co., were charged in the bill with putting themselves forth as
for the said loan on the part of the Government of that State,
which was formerly a colony of Spain, but then revolted from the
dominion of the mother country, and her independence not recog-
nized by the Government of this country. The bill also charged the
defendants, Powles and Co., with having represented themselves
not to be parties to the said contract of loan. By those repre-
sentations the plaintiff was, as it was stated, influenced to make
purchases of scrip of the loan, and was also influenced as to the
price he should pay for that scrip. The bill further charged
those representations to be untrue, and that the defendants,
who put themselves forth as unconnected with the loan, were
actually connected with it. his Lordship, after repeating that
he was bound by former decisions, affirmed the order of the
Vice-Chancellor, and allowed the demurrer. But, in dismissing
the appeal, he was glad of the probability that his judgment
would undergo the revision of another tribunal, where the ad-
vantage of the learning of the other Judges could be had.
Decision of the Vice-Chancellor affirmed, and appeal dismissed,
but without costs.

APPALLING CIRCUMSTANCE.--A young
woman, named 11I'MuLt.rx, residing with her mother and
brothers near Maguiresbridge, within about seven miles of
Enniskillen, eloped with a young man named M'CAsit,
and got married, which not meeting the approbation of
her friends, they evinced every disposition to persecute her,
particularly, as it is thought, from the girl having a small
fortune in her own right, which they bad in their hands,
and were unwilling to part with. It is said, however,
that they at last appeared reconciled, and brought the girl
and her husband home; but such was the bad treatment
to the latter, that he was forced to leave the house, to seek
an asylum for himself and the unfortunate subject of this
article, to screen them from their vengeance. After his
departure the whole of that vengeance was directed against
the young woman, whom they severely beat on the head
and different parts of the body, tied her down with ropes,
and inflicted other most cruel injuries, of which she died
on Tuesday morning in the greatest agony. A Coroner's
inquest was held on Wednesday on the body, the result
of which we have not as vet learnt ; however, from el e y
thing we have beard, we suppose the committal of the
mother and one of the brothers is certain.—Fe, inanagh

May. They were informed of the revolution at Rio, but all re-
mained tranquil at Pernambuco at the above date.

HALF-PAST ONE.
There has been some excitement this morning in the city,
caused by an announcement that Government are going to take
up two thousand tons of shipping for transports. The public, not
knowing the cause, thought that they were for conveying troops
on some expedition ; but, on its being ascertained that the tran-
sports are for the quarantine service, the excitement ceased.
We are informed that a letter is in town from Berlin, which
brings a report that Count Paskewitch, :the new Commander of
the Russian armies in Poland, had gone over to the Poles. He
is a Pole by birth, but we are afraid that this news is too good to
be true, and we must wait for Anther information before we can
give it credit
Consols have been fluctuating from 82% J for the account
down to 82% % ; at present they are 82% %. The market has
been heavy the whole of the morning, owing to some sales of
money stock by one of the insurance offices
In the Foreign Market nothing doing.

recently tried by the tribunal of• Bayonne for trampling on
a tri-coloured cockade. Although the fact was clearly
made out site was acquitted. Nearly all the trials for po-
litical offences_ on both sides in France have been attended
with a similar result, whether fur offences against the reign-
ing dynasty or not.

LAW INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY).

CO DIRT or KING'S BENCH.
CRIMINAL INFORMATION.L-THE KING. v. ADDY.
_This was a criminal information filed by Mr. Fane, the late
M P. for Oifordshire, against Mr. C. F. Addy, an attorney, charg.
ing him as being -the author of several anonymous letters ad-
dressed to the prosecutor, and also of a placard which was pub_
lisheil in July last, and circulated very extensively through tilt
t cunt v of Oxford.
Sir J AMESSC A II LETT conducted the plaintiff's case, and tin
ATTORNEY-GENERAL appeared for the defendant.
The case occupied all the forenoon, the particulars of it wen
so fully before the public, when the argument upon the rule for
a criminal information took place, that it is only necessary t,
state a few of the facts. The alleged libellous letters and tin
placard were signed " An Oxfordshire Freeholder," and
were issued about the period of the Oxfordshire election in July
last, and the purport of them was to impute improper conduct to
the prosecutor, and also referred to an imputed improper con.
nection between the prosecutor's daughter (who is since
dead, and who had married a barrister) and her uncle, Mr.
Joddrell. Evidence was given of the defendant having or-
dered 1,000 of the placards to be printed and circulated, but tin
evidence as to the hand-writing of the letters was very slight ;
One witness (the Presautw) speakidg to, his belief that the per.
son who wrote the manuscript of the placard wrote the letters.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, in addressing the Jury for
the defendant, said he admitted that his client was the author
of the placard, but he denied being the author of the letters, ass
tn respect of those he claimed an acquittatat the hands of the Jury.
Regarding the placard, he hoped the Jury would consider it was
issued during ttie exCitement of a contested election.
His LORDSHIP hying summed up, the Jury retired to con.:
skier their verdict.
The Jury found the defendant guilty on the second count,
namely, for publishing the placard, and acquitted him on all the
other counts.

DIPERIAL PARLIAMENT,

HOUSE OF LORDS, air' ::1; 23.
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat cn the Wool.
is k at Ten Minutes to Five o'clock.
Lord DUNDAS presented petitions from St. Aarew's,
Bo:Towstownness, and other places, in Scotiond, on tht,
subject of Parliamentary Reform and tegro slavery.
Lord WHARNCLIFFE gave notice, that on Tlitsday
he would lay on their Lordshin,' table a Bill relative to
the truck system.
Lord TEYNHAM gave notict: that on an early dty he '
would move for leave to bring in a Bill re/alive to thr
Mice of Overseer, and the Poor Laws generally.
HIS MAJESTY'S ANSWER TO THE ADDRESS.
. .

The LORD CHANCELLOR had to inform the House
that their Lordships had waited upon his Majesty with
the Aildmss of that House, to which his Niajesty was
graciously pleased to return the following most gracious
Answer :
" Ms. Loitos—l thank you for this loyal and dutiful addrtss.
I receive with pleasure your assurance that you wi4.l take into
early consideration the various matters which I recommended to
our attention ; and I rely with perfect confidence on your sum.
port in maintaining the peace and improving the prosperity or
the country."
Lord PLUNKETT took this opportunity of romplainin,
of a most gross and scandalous libel published upon him
in a Newspaper, purporting to be a report of the speech
of a Member of the other House of Parliament, which im-
puted to him that which would mike him on?. of the most
abject of men, and he was most anxious to know upon
what grounds such an attack cotthi he made, for none teat
ever made more totally without foundation,

Lord LONDONDERRY would sugge;t that no discus.
aion should take place on this subject, till there was an
kippartunity of conferring privately with the Hon. Baronet,
for lie was sure there was ne man more incapable of mak-
ing a statement without foundation than the Hon, Bennet.
Lord ELLENBOROUGH said, that he conceived it
to be out of order to make such charger against a Member
~f the other House. There was another course for the
Noble Lord to pursue, and it was unnecessary for hint
(Lord Ellenbornuzh) to point it out to the Noble Lord'.
Lord PLUNKETT said, one of the charges against him,
for there were many, was, that he had bartered a
judicial office for the support of thirty votes for
a Government candidate at the late election ; he
had scarcely occasion to assure their Lordships that
such a charge was without the slightest foundation, and he
was only anxious at this early period to set himself right
with their Lordships and the country generally.
The LORD CHANCELLOR teen moved that his
Majesty's most gracious answer to the Address should
he entered on their Lordships' Journals, for the purpose of
being printed, which motion was carried.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TTVELVE O'CLOCK.
(From the American Papers to the 4th May.)
Letters from St. Domingo state, that for a short time previous
to the departure of the ship ons/ow from Port-au-Prince, a very
great excitement existed in the political affairs of that place, and
it was thought at one time a revolution would have been effected,
but things were gradually assuming a more quiet state, and it
was hoped all would pass over.
A notice was issued by the Government of St. Thomas and St.
John's, announcing that the scarcity of corn and flour meal which
lately existed there having partly subsided, the prohibition issued
on the 19th April against the exportation of the same from St.
Thomas is revoked.
Extract of a private letter from Warsaw, June 11, by the French
mail Weare now released from all uncertainty, and our wishes
are accomplished. The hazardous plan of our Generalissimo
has completely succeeded, and the Samogitians are saved. On the
6th June, in the morning, the Polish army passed the Niemen
at two principal points, Gu gudzecki and Wilkie. This has
caused the greatest joy and enthusiasm among the inhabitants
of the right side of the bank of the Niemen, and the Polish
army will be supplied with all its wants from their brethren, and
it will give assistance to the revolution in Courland. A number
of them have joined the Poles. The army of General Gielgud
has a sufficient number of officers with it to organise 2.5000 men,
which will be sufficient to occupy part of the coast of the Baltic
sea. We learn that Count Przezdziski„ ancient Colonel of the
Lancers, is proclaimed General of the Forces, in the district of
Ochmiana. The army he commands consists of 14,000 men
The accounts from Gallicia state that General Gielgud has
burnt several magazines belonging to the Russians, which will
place Diebitsch's army in'a hazardous situation, and he will be
obliged to. retire to his old position on the Bug to procure
provisions.

houses and public places are to be shut at the close of the day ;
no person can pass the quays but on the public service, .and all
strangers who have not been in Antwerp for eight days, are
ordered to leave the town immediately."
The Polish Committee at Paris have sent forty physicians and
surgeons to Poland, at the expense of the subscriptions. To
each of them were given 500 francs to defray the expenses of
their journey. Thirty-two of them have arrived safe; eight or
nine have experienced some difficulties on their route at Berlin.
It is reported this morning that the Belgian Deputies, who were
expected to leave to-morrow for Brussels, have received some
fresh instructions, which will detain them.
