Mr. KEAN made his 'first appearance in Dublin
on Monday last; at the Crow-street Theatre. The
character he performed was Richard. There was,
as might be expected from the popularity which
lie acqtrired in London, a great anxiety to witness
his performance, and the house was.crowded iu
all parts. The Correspondent, a well conducted
'Newspaper, has giiren an elaborate and ably-written
account of the •performance. Perhaps the criti-
cism is altogether too partial, but it is written
with candour and judgment. Ireland has pro-
ductl some of the brightest ornaments of the
English Stage, (QUIN, BARRY, MossoP, JoHN-
STONE, &c. &c. &c.) and an Irish audience pos-
sesses an hereditary taste for theatrical limit.

With emotions of joy and gratitude we have
learned front,:: the public Prints the formatif-in of
Comnittees,of benevolent I3t ittsli Females, whose
efforts are devoted .to the alleviation of the dis;
'tresses of the, Conti nent,,andwho in, Particular
deeply sympathize in the forlorn state Of the un-
fortunate orphans of SaxOny„ Which haS had to
'sustain so se ere a, trial.. I-lere tob,• was formed
a similar Society,"which is, exclusively engaged in
providing for these destitute little ones.
,-Jtidge
then, what must-have heen Otir feelingS.when we
heard that tnir. sisters-in I;ngland Were Malting
our most .important concern their own. With
deep emotion We Join- them iii the, good worls
and approach-I
-heal with the, confidence which the
Christian seqiiment of ebarity and benevolence so
easily inspireS. Let us; , then, frankly acquaint
you with
.04- listresses, as well as with What
bas
been done to relieve them ; and what we venture
to solicit of our generous British sisters.
We need not repeat fibw, f;rieVonsly our court-,
try (in' which the etriancipation .of Europe -was
achieved) has sof/erect front the War and its for-
mid•ible Train :-.-Want• anti fainine-•-;•••diseaSe and
misery—devastation awl death ! All this the 'pub-
lie Pipers have announced ; and -we' know that
you cannot be strangers to the subject in general,
kire,wish, 110-rem., that we could des'eribe to you
t .e individual distress which surrounds us ; the
deplorable- state -Of the children, who hate hist
fa.her and mother, and every thing along with-
. them ; and yet we thirst not giye volt a failbful
' picture of it, as it Nr ould wound your hearts too
deeply. 'lt is most painful to hear in what a state
• these children, particularlY those of very tender
age, have been found le,- those extellent men who
feel them-elves railed by Gait to seek ont tii,sery
in its mos.t secret retreats,. They were. theei•tore,
the first endeavourto,allevi:lte their con-litinn-
and to invitelali philanthropie'Christians, both at
Lome and abroad, to 'take compassion, agreeably
to one 57;1% ioor's irnieietioti„tn these Little Ones.
Tl)ey natives:4,d th-inselves iit particidar to out'
Sex, to whose Care the Children was especially
conunitted. ,Anil God gave power to their voice :
so that froth al! qu:arters.came Otters to take the Se.
Orphans, and Contributions f'or their Support.
The Committee in London for relieving-the Dis-
tresses occasioned by the IVar LI Germany, has in
particular exerted itself in our hclealf„; and gives
us hopes that.it gill do stilt more. But in Saxony
also, an excellent spirit W displayed ; those
to whom Providence had preserved part, of their
property, cheerfully extended their Aid to such as
were lett quite destitute. In this winner about.
200 Children 'have.already been placed in Fan&
: aad foar small Institutions, correspondinci
with our abilities at the time, have been erected',
into Which the Orphams are received till new Pa-
rents can he found for them. One of theSe -is- at
Dippoldiswahla, fOr Boys ; the second at Grim-
berg, for Girls ; and the other two at, Pirna and
Aresden,. for Children of both -Sexes.
So long as we can meet with • Families willing
to receive our Little Ones. into their midst, we
'hav,r,xtothing more to Wish on their account. ,Bnt
nattwally this nitinber must decrease more and
more ; and iMr this reason, because the Managers
of. these Institutions are unwilling to place any of
the Children oat of their depopulated native coun-
try, and their- yet remaining resources will be
_speedily exhausted. We are, therefore, desirous
of giving permanence to these Institutions, (at
least to One of them), that the Orphans, who can--
not be 9therWise provided for, may be there re-
ceived, educated, Ind.supported, till they shall be
able to earn their own living.
• To yon, then, beloved -Sisters, we turn and in- .
treat you to devote to this Object the Bounty
which you may have destined for our poor In-
fants. We will gladly-transmit to you an,Ac-
count of its Application, and punctually follow
every Direction that you may give respecting it.
Encouraged by your co-operation, we shall exert •
ourselves the 'more cheerfully ; and God', who
blesses whatever is done . for his sake, will not
fail to prosper the sisterly Covenant in which we I
arc-united. '

ItrOT AT TUE RACE COURSE, DO,A'N'PATIIIQX.
It is our chity, this clay, to coitimunicatq t,O ,the
Public the distressing I,ct, that a dreadful rot
attclitted with very .tnelanclioly conequeuces,
took place on Friday
_last, at the Race Course of
Downparrick. , . .

, .
When the, actonnt of She affair. first reached
...this town, it Waqacconipanied,as is usaaf„ wit 4
many exa2;gerAted rpntours,

all combt,ved to exrite no ordinary de,ree of un-
easiness in the .public
.‘l,7e have endeavoured to dlit-tiin a correet stoe-
nient of this unfortuta affair, by of
several respectible persons wit() v—re
front Cori esponut an 3 f:oin a 'Ales-

senger we sent to the Spot.
It appears that a very. great and •wnastual ~t;
sembling of counfry people, all armed with stic!:s;
and some with p!stols; was -observed on 't 'e R. ice
Course• on Friday, and it Was tinder,d'ooft that A
precdwerted disturbance t‘. as to
,re the conSe,
quence, for several days before, it was sa:d.,
without_ •lieSitaiibn, that " the Ora)ige:nen had.
their day on time 12th o Jaily, and they (the
Threshers, or whatever name they go
rbyj should
haVe theirs on the Friday of the Races "---About
four o'clock on that day, a dispute or'quarrel
(many present say a sham fight) took place the-
tween ;two men, Which in an instant attracted a
great crowd, apparently on the watch, and a ilk;
turbance and riot ensited, and continued for
Considerable time till it became most
so much so, that
_theTMagistrates foundsit neres-
sary to send into Dawn for a detachment Of the
Middlesex Militia quartered there.
• When the military were drawn up, the rage of
the assembled crowd was directed .linost ‘Vholly
against them, and they were assaileil with Vollies
of
,stones from behind the tents, andinany oppro-•
brious names. The Mil-iti'a all this, time kept their
ground .with the greatest coolae,s : the great
mass; (some thousands it is said), emboldened by-.
the quiet manner in which the soldiers acted, ad-
vanced so near,as • to bid theta defiance, pelting
them with stones, by which some of theni were
injured and knocked- dOwn.. The soldieri were
then ordered to fire with blank cartridge, but
this only_ made the mob more riotous. They were -
then ordered to fire with .ball—two men instantly
fell, and a great many were wounded ; four or
five are in the Infirmary. Many of the ertieuded
may have been• carried off, but the above men-
tioned were all that were chiefly mentioned.-' in
cases of this kind, the innocent, unfortuthitely,
often suffer with the guilty. We arc sorry to'
to learn that Mr.John.M`Mtillan, the Postmaster
of Clough, while sitting in one of the-tents, got
a ball throuL-01 the fleshy part of his thigh-; but
the-Wound is not dangeroul-.

, .
r_. .. ._
, A number of the rioters were taken pens hers
and lodged. in jail; oiie of thew, we have !ward,
had fimr pistols in his possession 3' another. had
two.-

On Saturday the crowds of people that docked
into Downpatrick were immense ; and some ap-
prehensions, it is said, were entertained that ar.
attempt would have been made to rescue the pri-
soners from the jail ; but we are happy to say all
'was tranquil, and not the slightest appearance of
disturbance.
•

At the time our Messenger left Downpatrick
yesterday,' the Coroner's Impicst had not sat on
any of the-bw!ies ; but it was to take place in the
course of the day. The result shall be COmmuni-
,cated in our next;

of the .Nagistrates, it is generally supposed that
much More blood would 'have been shed, -as -a
great part of the deluded multitude was collected
avowedly for the :pqrpose of exeiting'disturhanc,e.
The military, it is. admitted, acted in a cool
temperate manner.
This unfortunate business haying arisen.from
one of those ebullitions of party which. are
jurious to the country, we have found it extremely
difficult to obtain any Account diVested of die CO-
louring of party. The circumstances altogether,
in our opinion, affords a strong' recoininendatiou
for abandoning the processions of least; of Orange..
men on the 12th of July, which 'seem unneces-
sarily .to have so great an effect. in irritating the
lower order of the Catholic body, and stimulating.
to such disgraceful acts as we have beep' noticin.
