' DUBLIN TIIATRE, JAN. 14.—Last night Mr.
KEssaLa made his fourth appearance, as King
Lear, in which Character he exceeded any thing
we have ever witucssed on the Stage. .We
feel ourselves •quite inadequate• to. the task of
conveying to our Readers any idea of this •noble
piece of acting, which would not fall far, short of
the merits of this -distinguished performer; so ex-
quisite, so noble:, so true to nature from first
to last, that, to point to any,particular passage,
would- be unjust. in us—so perfect. was

(which was very much crowded) one ,per Son
possessed „ot the slightest feeling, that did, not-
from their hearts, sympathize in the soul-rending
affliction of the good old King-. , in -this, as in all
such characters, where greatness and majesty.are
to be pourtrayed, whether rising with the tower

not bad that pleasure, that this inimitable piece
of performance may be repeated.

LIMERICK, JAN. 11.—We are much concerned
to state, that dsturbances to an alarming extent
continue in some parts of this county. We can-
not surmise what the object of the deluded per-
",petrators is, as they must know that the
arm of the low is sufficiently strong to, resist
them in. their illegal proceedings, and -which
undoubtedly will bring them to- an ignomi-'
nious end, and entail 'misery. on their fami-
lies. The following list of depredations com-
mitted within 9 short period, in the vicinity of
Kiltnallock, we bare received from a Gentleman
of veracity the night of the 20th ult. se-
. veral fellows armed with blunderbusses and pis-
tols, burglarously entered the hotises of Robert
Holmes, Malachy Haitian, Maurice Hemiecsy,
Edwin Erwin and David Welsh, committed se-
veral acts..of violence, and stole various, articles
of value-and cash to a large amount. On the
night of the 23d ult.- the house of Mrs. Adams,
of Ballycullane, was broken open by an armed
banditti, and one gun and three pistols taken
away. On the 29th ult. the house of John Do-
noghue, of Knocksoung, was broke into by an
armed party, who, after firing several shots,
threatened to burn the house, when Donoghue
complied with their mandate, by delivering to the
Captain three guns; a powder horn, and pouch,
.after which, on said night, they broke open se-
veral other houses in search of fire-arms ; they
then attacked the dwelling-house of Auth. Dwyer,
of Btrikesmill, who resolutely made a determined
resistance .by firing many shots at them ;:_how-
crer, by their number, continued firing and sledg-
ing the-door, they at-last entered, took one gun,
some money, plate, and wearing apparel ; they
afterwards put him on his knees to shoot him, but
were'contented by breaking a blunderbuss on his
servant boy's head. - On -the night of tire 31st ult.
the houses- of John IVelsh, of Laurencetown,
Maurice O'Donnell,,the widow M'Connell,
rice Hayes, and Michael Mulquin, were broken ,
into, in search of fire-arms ; the night following
the house. of Michael Casey was attacked andc
threatened to be fired, until he gave them his
musket. Our correspondent concludes by stating
that seldom one night passes that similar depre-
dations are not committed.

'Thursday night, a most daring outrage was
committed in the village of.Ballingarry, in this
county, by a number of fellows breaking into the
Bridewell, and releasing three prisoners confined
therein ; resistance being offered by the Bridevrell
keeper, the desperadoes fired and wounded him
and his wife severely. An immediate pursuit be-
ing set on foot after the perpetrators, we are happy
to say that the leader, a fellow named Mullow-
ney, was apprehended on the confines of the
county Cork, and was on Monday lodged in our
jail, by Thomas-Odell and, William Smytb, &qrs._

couRT MARTIAL ON Slit JOHN MURRAY.
(HELD AT WINCHESTER.]•

WEDNES9AY, THIRD DAY.

The DEPUTY JUDGE-ADVOCATE this morning
announced the decision of the Court relative to
three questions,proposed by Atli-aim' Hallowell,
and objected to _by Sir John Murray; ivhich de-
cision declared, that the first question as ,to the
signal made by the Bristol of a fOrce of 2000 men
appearing near Balaguer, was regular and legal,
as applicable -to the two former charges, and
ought to appear in the proceedings of the Court,
without the assent or admission of Sir John'
Murray. The other two, referring to the landing
of-the troops at periods subsequent to the em-
barkation at Tarragona, could not be allowed,
these occurrences not forming any part of the
charges which the Lieutenant-General had been
called upon to defend. The general direction's
which Admiral Hallowell stated himself to have
received, to substantiate by evidence the allega-
tion contained in his letter of the 14th of June,
1813, could not,. authorise that Court to take
cognizance of any matter not directly applicable
to the charges in:question. .The object of the
Admiral being merely the vindication, of his own
character, that object might be considered as al-'
ready attained, as far as it was involved.under this
head, by the anxiety already expressed, on his part
to press this
.enquiry. But at the same time it
might -be deserving -of remark, that Admiral
'Hallowell/had had it in his power, if he con
sidered such a further investigation as essentialin
justifying himself, to have brought it before the.
Court, by making it the ground of a-separate and
additional charge. T , .

Admiral Hallowell was. proceeding to state his
reasons for putting the -questions, and to expresg
his regret at the decision of the Court, When he
was interrupted by the President; who informed
him, that the Court haring,decided that-the ques-
tions were illegal, all further observation- on them
was necessarily precluded.
Admiral HALLOWEI.L..-'=7" Then I subthit most
respectfully to the judgment of the Court." •
The Deputy Judge Advocate said,. he , had re-
ceived a letter from General Donkin, v:‹pressing
a wish to be called in evidence, as be apprehended
some misrepresentation had taken place, of what
bad fallen from him on the' of June, 1813,
at Tarragona ; and desired to know whether Ad-
Infra' Hallowell was willing to call tlin:I: as one of
his witnesses. The Admiral declining-, Sir John
Murray intimated that he should call him in his
defence.

Capt. INGLEFIELD'S Examination was then resumed:
Q. Do you recollect, that in consequence of
the Bristol's .•igniffl on the 14th, the Cossack and
Kennett opening a fire on the enemy, and oblig-
ing thereto retire Yes, 1 do recollect it.
