property of Sir Roger Palmer, in:the barony of Tireragh
His wife, an old decrepit broken-hearted creature,
crawled about for a day or two, to procure means to
means
bury her husband, but she begged from beg:gars,
and het
solicitatim.s were consequently in vain. She relirej to
her miserable hovel, and died. For ten days the two-
bodies lay in the hut, without a human creature coming
near them. At lewith the people of the place deter
'Tuned upon burying them, and a group of peasants
assemlind for that purpose, but such was the stench from
hr b dies. tar gone in a state of decomposition; that
they feared to remove the victims of the pestilence, and.
they fitailly resolved upon thrown g down the house over
the la mains of the dec a.,ed ! In the barony of
Tireintgle and the county of Sligo, this most awful
,eptilchre can be seen at the preterit hour. Sir Roger
Palmer keeps a town residence in London—we saw it
some months ago, and can state that it is not excelled by
any other manti,,,n in the metropolis of the world—and
vet his tenants, the people who b) their industry enable
him to live in this state, die and are buried after the
fashion we have decribed. Oh God ! is not this horrl-
rle Champion.
COUNTY itYP LoNGFORD.—At cur quarter session%
which ended on Tuesday evening, 2,055 processes were
entered. 1,600 tit orgies and d.smisses obtained, and five
men, namely, Patrick Mulligan, Thomas Hnurican,Juhn
Pettit, Bernard M.Garry, and John Judge, were
-ntenced to transportation for stealing cattle.—Long-
ford Journal.
MONAGHAN QUARTER SESSIONS.—James Mej Or, EN..
assistant-Ltrri,ter, is ju,t now presiding at one of the
trgest sessions ever known in this county. There are
apvrards of 1.000 civil bid `entries, and the ejeotments
more than double any preceding year. Every person to
whom money is due is resorting to legal proceedings, so
:hat they may get d• creel to arrest persons preparing
;o go to America. The needy landlords, too, are ,en-
deavouring by this near=s t•, get some rent from their
impovern-hed tenants. Small lessors, fearing the opera-
tion of the Relief Act, are endeavouring to snatch e.ll
they can _get, while the only persons who cart aid the poor
are the large propriefOra.—Mimaghan Standard.
COUNTY OF KERRY.—KENDIAEE.-,00-,S.Undtty, last,
there were no-less than- five dead bodies in the streets of
Kenmore, without a human being to claim them or look
after their burial, till Mr. Daniel Mahony and another
respectable shopkeeper had them severally conveyed to
the grave in a false-bottomed collin.—Trake Chronicle.
COUNTY OF G ILWAY.—The labourers disbanded under
the twenty per cent. proclamation have been in many in-
stances recalled, or suffn-ed to enter again on the works
in the neighnpurhood of Loughrea.—Ballindsloe Star.
TILLAGE OF the LAND.—Generally the accounts are
still favourable, with the exception of those western and
southern counties where, between the apathy of land-
lords and the poverty of small occupiers, large districts
are entirely neglected. In many cases tenants who pos-
sess the means of purchasing seed, but who are in arrear
for rent, are afraid to crop the land, lest the landlord
Should seize upon the produce.

PORTS.

WATERFORD, APRIL 1927—The receipts of home grain
to market continua light, yet, under existing circum-
stances, larger than might be expected. Wheat ad-
vanced ls. to 25., and oats hilly Is. per barrel on Wed-
nesday's currency. Barley ruks heavy, the trade bring
confined to seeding. Few 'resh arrivals of Indian corn
to note, but there is a very large quantity at our quays,

tOod, the prics rule very various—some so low Its Vs.,

EXPORTATION OF AMERICAN FLOUR FROM COAX.,—
It is a siogular fact, that one thousand barrels of Arne-
' Rican II 'lir, imported direct to Cork, were shipped for
Liverte .1 to day, per the Nimrod, and a considerably
larger soantity was offered for shipment but there was
no room in the vessel, which carried an enormous freight

intimated to him that-, in making Ow advances towards
reconciliation which he tied movie. he ' hail .go ,e too
1)r, and he had received communications from the
highest names in the country to that effect. The
speech of Mr. Smith O'Brien had tilled him with
surprise. That gentleman hat' accompanied expres-
sions of personal kindness towards him (Mr. John
O'Connell) and his father with a charge against
them, which, if true, would have rendered them
unworthy of the kindness .or personal regard of any
man, and which ought to subject them to the reprobation
of every honest,' good,"ind patriotic man in Ireland—
(Cheers.) If they wee:: traitor., as the charge implied,
they ought not to have been complimeeted, they ought
to have been denounced.—(llear, heir.) If that charge
were true, the people ought bi pi,t, them down—if the
..teirge wet e true, thoy 'should be driven with execration

elf a oelingu.lit, if boiling a posttion of it fluence he
did not use his t .fluence in ga.lwrilig the opinion of the
people against them —(Cheers.) Mr. Smith O'Brien
had charged them with a Whig alliatce, and with the
rust terrible consevences resulting from that 41liance
—the death of the people from starvation. With
regard to that Whig alliance, he (Mr. O'Connell) did
not wish to use any term of personal offence
to Mr. O'Brien—he would not for every light
and unguarded expression which a man might utter,
wish to violate the laws of God, and reply by
hitter and acrimonious language to those unguarded ex-
pressions.—(Cheers.) He tusk those expiessions of Mr.
0' Brien a- unguarded, and his answer to them was this
—without meaning offence to him or to any one what-
.4oever, but s Aely in the vindication of his (Mr. O'Con-

(No, no.) Was it Mr. Smith O'Brien ?—(No, no.) It
was in that hall that their policy was first combatted,
and it was fcorn the same place that the " parrot

tleman, after some further observations in vindication of
his conduct, concluded by saying that he had done for
ever with "Young Ireland," and that any advances for
a rec-,nciliation sin.uld proceed from teat party.
After some further business had been disposed of,
viz., the adoption of a petition to Parliament in favour .
of the Dublin Improv-m- nt Bill, and an appeal to the
constituencies of Ireland in favour of the repeal candi-
dates ; Mr. John O'Connell moved that a sentence from.,
a le!ter to John Russell from Sydenham should be 4is- „
played on the walls on Conciliation Hall, viz., " That
the people of England did not care one rush for your
Irish hobby -horses."
The rent for the week was 191.45. 9d.
