personally relieved by Mr. Rodney. They King thinking
highly of the obligation, asked what rerompence he should make
him ? Mr: Rodney replied, " Sire, I am no courtier, and if I
were, you have no doubt sufficient claims on me; the only favour,
therefore, that I have to ask is, that you and the l)nke of
Chanties will stand godfathers to my son, who is just born."

lifiso COU S.—Yester-
day evening was committed to Clonmel gaol, by
FItANCIS DESPARD, Esq. John Bryant, of Aiulli-
nahone, he being charged on oath of Mary
Burke, spinster, with being the principal of a
party who forcibly and against her consent car-
ried her.away from the house of James Ryan, of
Ballyvadly, farmer, with intent to marry her, as
she heard. The girl above mentioned is the
daughter of a respectable farmer. On her having
been taken off, word was immediately dispatched
to Killaghy Castle, and such were the prompt
exertions of Mr. Despard and his son, in . turning
ont the military at a late hour, and such the
panic struck into the misguided wretches who
had committed this offence, that they were obliged
to leave their victim, without any opportunity of
insult, at a farmer's house, about a mile from
the dwelling. from whence she was taken, where
every comfort was afforded her till her deliverers
arrived.

A most respectable Meeting of persons con-
' nected with trade in this place, occurred on
Friday last, for the purpose of forming a
Society of Tradesmen in the town and county,
to oppose and prosecute fraudulent insolvent
debtors: The Chairman, Mr. Henry Marshall,
having declared the purpose for which the
Meeting had been called, stated the propriety
and necessity of forming such Society. Upon
the motion of William Searle, Esq, seconded
by Mr. Turner, certain rules for the government
of the society were read and confirmed. Mr.
C. Edwards addressed the meeting; and in the
course of his remarks, stated two cases of,
fraud : The first related to a bill-broker, who I
had debts against his estate amounting to
more than 14,0004 where the creditors did
not receive one farthing dividend ; the other
case referred to a merchant, who also owed
his creditors more than 14,0001., and who paid
into Court for the benefit of those to whom he was
indebted the sum of 31.05. 3d. _l Mr. Edwards
stated, that within two years of the passing of the
Act, upwards of 15,000 persons had take the
benefit of it. Mr. Randall made some very judici-
' Gus remarks,she w ing the present ex pence ton credi.
