TifkLEE, Fan. 28.—0 n the morning of Sunday,'
last, ColOnel Godfrey and Major Mahony (the latter
having been particularly solicited fort he purpose by
Some of the people in the disturbed quarter) repaired
to the Roman Catholic house of worship; of the
parish of Kiltomy, where they were -joined by
Thomas William Sandes, of Killycrim,William
Hilliard, of Ballyhorgan, and Alexander Elliott,
Esqrs. The obje& of the meeting was, • the
re-establishment of peace and subordination among
the people; . and the means sele&ed for this. end
were the strongest and most pathetic remon-
strances to them, on- the mischief, crime, and
fogy 'of,continuing disobedient to the laws--on
'the necessity of returning immediately to the habits
of peace and.industry, andof evincing a resolotion
to do so, by giving up their arms" and taking the
oath of allegiance. The appeal wall' ably and int-
pressively repeated, in the Irish language, by the,
Rev. Mr. Buckley, a Roman Catholic Clergyman of
'this diocese, who had been called to this best of ser-
vices by Major Mahony.
Those exhortations had their effdt. The entire
congregation, which was numerous, .rose with ono
voice to declare their submission and entire acqui-
escence to every sentiment conveyed to them.
A respe&able and peaceable inhabitant of the.
name of Ferdivand Lyne, was the chief organ of
this general and desirable feeling. A mail also
named Madden, made similar prolessiOns ii.)r himself
and all the others assembled. He acknowledged that
he had been a Whiteboy,- bUt never engaged in any
atrocious at% or en. gaged at all' in the late
tut bances.
On the same day those Gentlemen went forward
to the Chapel of Irrimore, in the parish of Killa-
hap, where Major' Ponsonby had been on the toot n-
ing of that day, ably explaining the law, and incul-
cating the best instructions.
At this Chapel, as.at the former, exhortations the
most appropriate Were delivered by the same de-
aerving.aut horities, and received with the same good
tiled. All the people, with one accord hastened
to push forward and approach their civil and itija
gious instructors, tendering at the same time,. OM
predicable pledge of their sincerest intentious, to re',
turn immediately to the duties of morality and-of
peace. One instance of their sincerity ought to b®
mentioned. The brother of the garish Priest of
Irrimore was, it seems, obliged some time ago ti)
-quit his residence in that parish, having
been ohnox-
ions to the Whiteboys, tnerely because he had wallaconcern in tithes.—Major ..hlahony, when 01041
acquainted with this circutnstanee, wished tolVut
the sincerity of those penitent Whiteboys to all In,'
scant test, hedemanded them to recal the exiled Proc"
tor.. They .immediately and act.' tally assented,
and offered to conduct him back themselves.to his
former abode.,
After the conclusion of service at this ChaPel,
the. people Were instructed to meet on the next day,
at Ballyhorgan, there to give up arms and swear
allegiance. Multitudes did pursuantly assemble--'
all of them, or as many as the Magistrates
have received, swore allegiance, and. several stan.o,s_
of arms were delivered on that day, and in t,11,:
course of the week. Those deluded poor PecP!l..
t
renewed their professions of snow and ‘3"ny`de.
situ), with a general .ardour and enthiiiiasna
monstrating since:tiny. They declared their
oaths, that the greatest suffering which vale° then
to madness, sprang from ProCtorship, or the mantic.
of collecting tithes. Of the cussuncoanetit..e,
contrary, they distinctly declared, felt no evil
with Clerical Agents,t they did nor *complain on lb,
whatever, wheh dealing solely and immediately with
the clergyman.
