Punic P12,1R AT. CA:TLEBAn.—The dinner to cele-
brate the complete establishment of the independence of the
County of Mayo was given on Monday evening, at Sheri-
dan's Great Rooms.

A! A vo.—Thelotlependent Club have passed a vote of
censure on the Pilot', and the other portion of the Liberal
Press who supported the Hon. Mr. Constantine Browne's
pretensions to represent the county.
\VAR.—The columns of the Dublin Evening
Post were last Saturday crowded with bulletins issued from
the Exchequer. Talk of Gen. Evans and the battle of
Ernani, says our Contemporary, talk of Don Carlos or Gen.
Cord va—these, no doubt, are interesting topics to every
true Briton, and every lover of liberty—but, after all, their
interest is not greater—their consequences, perhaps, though
the destiny of this great Kingdom depends upon them, not
more important than the results of the warfare now waged,
not only on the plains and mountains of this country, but in
the Court-of Exchequer, between the parsons and attorneys
on one side, and the tithe defaulters on the other. The only
gainers as yet by the war are the gentlemen of the short-
robe, with a sprinkling of perquisites for the golden opi-
nions of those clail in stuff, silk, and horse hair. Ah! it is ,
a glorious state of things, and means mischief. The object
of the Orangemen is unquestionably to force matters to the
extremity of civil war. The most important result, as yet,
is the attempt now made to sequestrate gentlemen's estates,
under Lord Stanley's Bill. A conditional order has been
obtained against Mr. Sheil, and the Hon. and Learned
Gentleman will be obliged next term to show why the rule
to place a receiver over one of his estates, should not be
made absolute. -

On the same subject we find the following remarittaiy the
Wexford Independent :
WRITS OF REBELLION.-Mr. Dow/vim—The reign
of terror has at length commenced within our tranquil pre-
cincts ; the 'ruffian emissaries of the church by law esta-
blished have been let losse on our moral and peaceable
commtitiiii;• ; the town of Enniscort.hy and the circumjacent
nehrhbonihood were thrown into the greatest alarm on Fri-
day last,.by the appearance of large parties of the military
and police,, under the command of two illiterate Orangemen,
yclept ‘_:"Commissioners of Rebellion," " note of pre-
paration" for active service, All oonjectures as to the in-
tention of the chiefs wore soon set at rest by the word being
given te' march to Broomland, the residence of James
Downes, Esq., and take that gentleman's body, by a coup
de main, and safely lodge it in one of his Majesty's prisons,
for his rebellious propensities against the claims of the tithe
church. Mr. Downes was attending the last sad offices of
a deceased relative, when the domestic quiet and privacy
of his home were thus outrageously invaded—and being in
a delicate state of health this time past (which no doubt
whetted the appetite of the church militaries for his caption)
has, we understand, taken his departure for the continent,
Altheugh.this good man has' eluded the pursuit of his
heartless and anti-christian persecutors, we tremble for the
consequences to the public tranquillity, which the appearance
of armed bands amongst ,an industrious and moral people,
seeking the capture of one of the most upright, honourable
and independent men we ever knew, (as if he were a com-
mon felon) and because he perseveres in his integrity, may
produce.

The censured papers do not submit silently to the inflic-
tion, and. considerable bitterness on the subject seems to be
shared by the parties.
O'CONNELL—KILKENNY.—We feel the deep disgrace
to our country that her metropolis shOuld be misrepresented
by incapable bigots, the creatures of the defunct ,Prange
lodges, men alike ignorant'of the wants of the country, and
of the necessary remedies by which they are to be alleviated.
It is, indeed, a bitter day for Dublin, when her independence
i 3 blunted, her honour stained, and her feelings outraged
by the triumph of West and Hamilton, For that there is
now no remedy: let it only nerve her citizens to buckle on
their armour, and at every coming 'Contest to be found at
their posts. The liberal who loayes his vote unregistered
willlieneeforth he looked upon as the scorn and outcast of
his kind, as the traitor in the camp, to be viewed with ten.
fold more disgust and abhorrence than the open undisguised
enemy. —lVato:fin.d Chronicle.

DEPOPULATION IN CARLOW.—It 11".sbften occi.::Ted to
us that the depopulating landlords of Ireland must be rank
Atheists—or, if they believe that there is h God, their con-
duct proves that they do )tat believe v:lngeance is His."

EmionATloN.—lf. Is supposed that the Emigration from
Ireland this ye,:a will double, nay---if we pin our faith to
some zta.vottetits—treble the amount of any former season.
I:Wt.-cutest number we believe from Ireland during any
ono year was 30,000, principally to Canada. This was the
veer before the cholera, when 52,000 British subjects were
located in British America and the United States. If the
present accounts may be relied on, there will be before the
end of the season more than 100,000 British landed on
the shores of Canada alone. But the emigration is far
from being confined to this locality. There has from Dub-
lin and other places been a vast emigration of artisans, car-
penters, brick-layers, &c:, to New York, where, in conse-
quence particularly of the late calamitous fire, a brisk de-
mand oxists for operatives of these classes. There are se-
voral txrmers also of the wealthier classes, from Scotland
and England, who are conveying themselves and their for-
tunes to the valley of the Mississippi. It is not from the
shores of Britain and Ireland alone that people are going—
Germany, particularly Bavaria, Switzerland, Belgium, and
Holland, are each sending forth their swarms. Even France,
the most stay-at-home country in Europe, not content with
the outlet which northern Africa affords to Algiers, Con-
stantine, Bona, and other places, is shipping off her super-
abundant population to the west. These foreigners will,
for the most part, locate themselves in the United States,
and penetrate far deep into the wilderness, towards the
head waters of the Arkanzas, in the woods of Texas, or on
the shores of Far Michigan. Europe is, in one word, pre-
cipitating herself upon America.
LIEUTENANT-COLONEL BRADLEY.—There is much in
this gentleman's case that calls for inquiry. An officer
grown old in the service, of acknowledged merit and un-.
blemished reputation—at the very worst that can bo: said
against him—differs on a point of etiquette vii;fe another
officer of the same standing, and for this '.s removed from
the army, without the invariable pract:‘,, of a public inves-
tigation into his conduct, and vv:::nout the intervention of a
court martial.

A sehoolmll-ster was fully committed to Bridewoll yester-
day for e.bmnlitting 4 rape upon a little girl of six years of
age, rad one Of his scholars. Ho is a man about 30 years
of ago, named M'earthy, and resided in Fair-lane.---=Cork
