FRACAS at IVICILLINGAR ASSIZES'
(From the Dublin Evening Malt) recl
On Friday a most extraordinary scene occur „100
our court-house. Shortly after Mr. Justice Crs,llo'
had taken his seat upon the bench, the Hon. Wr• 1 sad
ham, foreman of the grand jury, entered the en,lrect Sir
stated that Mr. Cooke, of Cookesborough, had Ca" .wei.
Richard Levinge a liar, and other oppeohriouell'j
sir
Thr, judge ordered the attendance of Mr. Cooke sijors
Richard into court, and upon their appearing, theLto of
ordered to enter into recognisance, each in the
10001., to keep the peace.
The origin of the quarrel was as follows :—On ailrf
day last, a meeting of the grand jury, and Ocii 0 Ict;
in,,n of the different relief committees of the ti"-(ist'',,
Mullingar, was held, and the question as to tew-beillo
being under discussion, Mr. Cooke objected Wit, be
compelled to support the paupers which proPer`„:lol
longed to other estates, and he went on to et'sr7ecte'
Richard Levinge with having in the first instance ej hii
a number of tenants who had now squatted
bad
(Mr. Cooke's) property with others. who b8"1 DlA't
similarly treated by Mr. Gibbons, of Ballynaga,v,:cbily
observation at that time was made by Sir •""
e 0;
Levinge.
On the following day, however, on the mecti,ritele,
the grand jury, Sir Richard Levinge called thelr,,"'dN
tion to the statement made by Mr. Cooke on t'oirieff
previous, and assured that gentleman that, on Wipe
,a°
made yesterday, he ascertained there was rl(4,a°llo...e''
his tenants on the townland alluded to who con'', 0"
squatted on Mr. Cooke's property, inairouck nee
forty years, he (Sir R. Levinge) had not ejected
than two or three tenants. Mr. Cooke in rerl'll°-,
tempted to deviate from his former charge, end;rl;iliaP
it to appear as if he had merely been exeLeY,"alt 0"
his argument ; but he was at once reminded IP.-
S•
charge was precise and personal, effecting SO. d tb-
vinge and Mr. Gibbons. Mr. Cooke again deelei„
the fact was so, but the grand jury unanittioeevive
serted the contreay, in which Sir Richard L v, ;a'
joined. 'Chia led at once to a personal alterean,usr,
the course of which Mr. Cooke used the term
applied to Ser Richard Levinge, and announced Peotie
time his readiness to meet him or any other gape:
man present, at a minutes notice. The circturetb
as above stated, having been reported to the juuT.ge;ieg:
parties were ordered into court. Sir Richard
immediately complied, but Mr. Cooke having reilihe
enter into any recognisances, was committed to tty ge,°,
tody of the shEriff, and conveyed to the eenll't t';;1
At a subsequent period he was brought beck i°01""
court-house, and allowed to remain out on his p.or°ed 1.001;
next day. His determination, however contieuoitt
changed, and Mr. Justice Crampton then c°ll:itil °iv
him to Mullingar gaol, where he is to remain 00
next assizes.

j FOOD IN BELGIUM.—A letter from Antwerp, of
the 28th of February, informs as that the price of bread has
again risen. On Friday the price of wheat was 33f. 55c. per
hec., of rye 22f. 72c., oats 9f. 79e., hay If. 95c., and straw sf.
80c. The price of bread of second quality was 50c. per killo-
graname, and that of rye bread 30e.
DISEASE IN FLANDERS.—The Belgian journals
represent the misery in Flanders as most frightful. The
Journal de Bruges says—" The mortality, already
frightful,
has not yet reached the horrible acme to which it will quickly
rise. The reports of several physicians prove to us that the
detestable food of the people of the country creates diseases
which must inevitably spread death around. More than 50
cases of dropsy have occurred in a single village!'
DREADFUL ACCIDENT AND DEATIL—OD Wed-
nesday
evening a poor woman named Jean_ Campbell, who
was totally destitute, called at the shop of an old master at
the foot of Loanwells.street, Paisley, for shelter during the
night. He gave her a little supper, and allowed her to sleep ,
before the fire. About six in tl.,e morning a man who lived
near the house heard a strange and fearful cry. He instantly
rose and went down stairs, hilt by the time he had gotl in,
