DUNDALK ELECTION. The Newry Examiner
says :—" We are enable], on the best authority, to
state that the petition against the validity of Mr.
M'Tavish's title to represent Dundalk has, to use the
technical phrase, been lodged,' and will be followed
up. The most eminent lawyers, intimately conver-
sant with all questions appertaining to constitutional
right, are decidedly of opinion that the result of the
petition will be the unseating of Mr. Mgravish, and,
as a matter of course, the recognition of Mr. INl‘Cul-
lagh's right to represent the borough of Dundalk."
EMIGRATION.—THE UNITED STATES.
'We are glad to learn that owing to the decrease
of fever at Boston and New York, the quarantine re•
gulations there are now suspended. This argues well
for the sanitary regulations put in force by the Ame-
ricans during:the fearful contagion that visited them.
Since last Tuesday there is no quarantine on pas-
sengers at Liverpool. Of course this does not include
Quebec and the ports of British' North America,
where, for the want of such timely precautions as
the authorities of the States insist upon, such great
mortality now prevails.—Cork Reporter.
FEVER AMONG THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CLERGY.—
The Rev. Mr. Sweeny, C.C., of Boyle, died in Boyle
a few days since, of fever caught in the arduous
duties of a Christian minister. There are not less
than eight Roman Catholic clergymen in fever in this
county.—Roscommon Journal.
CASTLERAR.—This fearful malady has again
broken out with renewed vigour in this town and
locality. Every street and lane has been attacked,
and we regret to say the epidemic progresses rapidly.
It is an extraordinary circumstance that, with all the
poverty with which the poor have to contend, that
ten per cent. have not fallen victims to the desease in
this neighbourhood. Mayo Constitution.
SLIGO ELECTION.—GOVERNMENT
INQUIRY.
Dunr.rx, SEPT. 9.—The Lord Lieutenantnd en has di-
rected an inquiry to be made into theconduct of the
Mayor of Sligo at the late election for that borough,
and into the circumstances of the violence alleged to
have been used by the sitting Alember and his
partisans for the purpose of preventing the nomina-
tion of a rival candidate. It will be recollected that
Mr. Dixon ani his supporters were severely beaten
and thrown off the hustings before tie nomination of
that gentleman could ha effected, and it is said that a
Roman Catholic priest died in consequence of the
injuries received by him on that occasion. The con-
duct of the investigation, which commences on the
14th instant, has been intruste,l to Mr. Baldwin,
Queen's Counsel, and could not he placed in better
hands.
