The favourable intelligence from the South, or
'rather the absence of afflicting details, which led tutu conclude
in our last publication that the outragesin that quarter were
lessening, is by no means borne out by 'the last Provincial
Journals. Cruelties of so malignant a description are still com-
mitted there, that it defies conjecture to account"for their per-
petration in any other way. than may arise from a naturally
brutal disposition, notwithstanding the eulogiums passed upon
the Irish character at the late meeting in Townsend-street. Can
we avoid considering that some sort of sympathy must exist
between the panegyrists and the panegyrised on this occasion ?
As for our parts, we cannot go over the enumeration of these
hideous excesses ; and must therefore refer our Readers for the
tparticulars to a subsequent column.—(Dublin Correspondent,

CONSECRATION or D. ARRUTIINOT.-011 Sunday last
the Consecration of Doctor Arbuthnot, Lord Bishop of Kills-
"loe, took place at Tuam, on which solemn •occasion the Arch-
bislip of Tuam, 'assisted by the Bishops of Kilmore and
'Elphin, read thittruly awful service in a manner so impressive,
as to affect, even.to tears, every individual in the crowded con-
gregation. The Very Rev. Warden Daly preached the Con-
secration Sermon.—(idem.)
Another Theatrical Riot occurred last night, of rather an
alarming kind. A variety of calls of a seditious and treason.
able kind having been made from the gallery, some person
• called three cheers for Sheriff"fhorpe when the riot commenced,
ling in the pit, and afterwards extended itself to the Nixes.
The confusion and riot became general throughout the house,
but owing to the activity of the peace.officers, nothing serious
occurred. IVe are unwilling to enter farther into the subject
'until all the facts are fully elucidated.--(Dublin Antidote,
May 17.)
(Prom the Cork Constitution of Friday.)
On the night of Saturday last a large dairy-house on a farm
called Mallow, belonging to Herbert Gillman, Esq., of Wood.
brook, situate within two miles of the village of Castletown, in
the parish of Keneigh, and about five from the town of Dun-
manway, containing a quantity of milk, cream, dairy utensils,
and other articles, was maliciously burned, and every thing it
contained entirely consinned ; seven mulch cows were at the
same time stabbed with bayonets, or similar instruments ; two
had their tails cut off, and one received a severe wound on the
leg. apparently with a sword or scythe.
On Saturday night last the house of Wm. Linehan, within a
mile of Buttevant,. was entered by a large party of he insur-
gents, who compelled the unfortunate man to let them have all
the money in his possession ; it amounted, we are informed, to
nearly ten pounds.
On Monday night the house of Richard Hatch, of Pregogue,
near BUttevant, was attacked, and 21. lOs. extorted from him.

On Thursday night last the following notice was posted on a
gate at the back entrance to the demesne of Francis Woodley,
Esq., of Leadcs, in the palish of Ahabologue:—
" Humanity shudders at the thoughts of the severities in-
tended a few individuals in Aughabnlough ; this uncharitable
system of Land Canting is practised there without the least
idea of that Divine preceipt, to love thy neighbour as thyself,
but the Almighty said I hope that Mr. NVoodley will have the
goodness of returning the Mattel of the poor termants he has
taking, these to, years constitution if this caution is not imme-
diately complied with. Vesuvius or Etna never sent forth
such crackling flames as some parts of Aughabolouge will
shortly emit solid mass of fire. Oneen has luscombustibleat
.all times." .

Mr. Woodley is a most indulgent landlord, having forgiven
the persons mentioned in Captain .1-tock's Notice a large arrear
,of rent. _ _

An outrage of rather a serious nature has taken place in the
neighbourhood of 111acroom, hitherto peaceable enough. On
Thursday last, in the noon day, whilst the inhabitants were at
mass, a good farm-house on the lands of Currabinny, in the
pariah of Kilnaniartia, near Macroom, was consumed, and a
large quantity of potatoes, milk vessels, and some other 'articles
were also consumed. A meeting of the Petty Sessions in Ma-
croom has investigated this business, and no doubt is enter-
tained but that the burning was malicious.
Committed to the Convict Depot on the 13th inst., 35 male
and 3 female convicts,, tried at . the last Spring and Summer
.Assizes in, Tralee„ county of Kerry. Also two men who were
convicted under the Insurmtion Act in that County.
