of the Continent of Europe, together with the "elite" of the Aris-

We find the following in the Constitutionnel :—" A
friend, travelling in Persia, communicates to us in a
letter the following fact, as showing the state of the
country. To go from Khorassan to I)aghar, on the road
to Teheran, the Aras, the Araxes of the ancients, must
be crossed, but as there are neither bridges nor ferry-
boats, it must be forded at a place called Klisseh, where
the river is both deep and broad, and the current variable
and uncertain. At this place is posted a detachment of
Persian cavalry, whose duties are thus defined. When
a traveller arrives with a firman, or passport, from the
Government, the officer in command orders one of his
men to ride into the river, and if he reaches the opposite
bank, the current is considered to be fordable, and the
traveller is allowed to cross with his suite. It frequently
happens that the soldier is carried away by the current,
and is no more seen or heard of, and the officer obliges
the traveller to wait till the river becomes lower, and
then the experiment is renewed. Although the favour
of these trials is granted to none hut personages of dis-
tinction, they are sufficiently frequent to cost the lives
of nearly one-third of the detachment every year."
We find the following in the Gazette des Tribu-
naux. It is a good story, but we know nothing of its
authenticity :—" M. Mousseau, a wine dealer from the
Yonne, came to Paris on business, and during his stay
had given him as curiosities fifteen addresses of M.
Fortier, the dyer, which are engraved from a plate so
designed as to be close imitations of the notes of the
bank of France for 500 f. each. When he had finished
all his transactions in Paris, he took a place in the mail
coach to return home, but having to visit a customer at
Brunoy, he arranged at the coach office for his being

evening, M. Mousseau was at the appointed spot, waiting
for the arrival of the coach. While in this expectation,
five men came out of the thicket and demanded his
money or his life. He at once saw that resistance would
be in vain, and retaining his presence of mind as well as
his co,trage, parleyed with the robbers, told them that
they would ruin him, as he had in his pocket-book
fifteen bank notes for 500 f. each, which he would imme-
diately surrender to them if they did not ill treat him.
They assured him of their forbearance, and then, at his
earnest request, restored to him one, of the notes to
expenses the expe,es of his journey. Ibis arrangement
was scarcely concluded, when the noise of the coach
coming up was heard, and the robbers made off. M.
Mousseau got into the mail, rejoicing at the presence
of mind which had enabled him thus to cheat the thieves,
and save the real cash he had in his pockets."

SERIOUS DISTURBANCES IN YOUGHAL.

DUBLIN, SEPT. 23,—The Cork .Reporter of yesterday
contains the following :
" On Tuesday last a meeting of the tradesmen and
labourers of the town of Youghal and its neighbourhood
was held at the Market-square, for the purpose of deli-
berating what steps should be taken in regard to the
present distress of the people, at which a slater of the
name of Patrick Magrath presided, who addressed the
people at some length, and informed them that they were
assembled for the purpose of making their distresses
known to the Government. They were peaceable, and
nothing but the dire necessity they were labouring under
could induce them to take that step.
" Several other speakers addressed the meeting, who
descanted on the sufferings they were enduring ; and
resolutions were passed, earnestly but respectfully call-
ing on the magistrates and gentry to procure employ-
ment for them under the late Act, and urging them to
lay their claims before the Lord Lieutenant with the
least possible delay, as their wants were severe and
awfully urgent. Also a vote of thanks to the relief
committee and town commissioners for the employment
they afforded them, and soliciting their co-operation
with the authorities on the present occasion.
" At the close of the meeting the Rev. Mr. Smiddy
addressed the assembled multitude, and having lauded
the peaceable manner in which they conducted their
proceedings, proceeded to lay before them the measures
proposed by the relief committee for the prevention of
the evil which they feared was about to afflict them. He
dwelt on the necessity of their being patient and peace-
able, and said that he had no doubt but in a few days the
Lord Lieutenant's proclamation would appear ordering
the holding of the sessions.
" A large number of police and a party of Dragoons
were present, but after the meeting separated they left
the town.

" Nothing having
_been_dene since Ulm which tended
to give employment to the people, a large number of
them congregated in the town at a❑ early hour yester-
day morning, upon which a meeting of the neighbour-
ing magistrates was hastily called in the Town-hall,
together with several influential gentlemen connected
with the town, many of whom exhorted the people,
and explained to them that every measure possible
under the late Act would be immediately resorted to,
and that every exertion which the co-operation of
the Leal gentry could use would be made to
alleviate the anticipated calamity. Those exhorta-
tions had the desired effect ior a few hours, and the
famishing labourers dispersed ; but about five o'clock
in the evening they se-assembled, and commenced an
indiscriminate attack on all the bakers' shop, out of
which they took the bread before the authorities could
interfere. A number of them then proceeded to the
drawbridge, and having raised the portcullis to prevent
the military from proceeding to Dungarvan. where it
was anticipated a similar occurrence would take place to-
day, they threw the handles into the river. In the
course of the evening the cavalry were called out, but
they merely paraded the streets, as after breaking into the
bakers' shops the town became quite tranquil. The
magistrates directed the bakers to make as much bread
as possible for the purpose of keeping up a supply, but
we understand that they are deterred from doing so,
being apprehensive of a fresh attack. Last night the
whole country in the neighbourhood was lighted up by
fires on the hills, and large detachments of people have
stationed themselves at various thoroughfares to prevent
the corn being brought into the town. In consequence
of those proceedings the magistrates have deemed it ad-
visable to apply for additional military assistance to
preserve the peace, and accordingly an influential mem-
ber of their body was deputed to wait on Major-General
Turner this day, to request a reinforcement of troops for
the town and country. A poor man in Youghal, after
having eaten a twopenny loaf on yesterday, fainted from
the effects of overloading his stomach, and when brought
to declared that he had not tasted food for twenty-four
hours previously."
OUTBREAK IN KILKENNY.

There also there have been serious disturbances,
whic'i are thus described by the Kilkenny Journal of
this day:—
" KILKENNY, SEPT. ,22.—Yesterday morning, about
half-past six o'clock, a mob, consisting of perhaps about
two hundred labourers, headed by two men bearing poles,
and accompanied by women and children to the number
of about two hundred more, assembled at the. Butter-
market to apply, as they said, for work. Some of them
(be it noted) had already refused to break stones at one
shilling per ton, and we have heard of one or two who
might have had steady employment elsewhere. No work
being there ready for them, they proceeded to the resi-
dence of the Mayor, clamorous and turbulent. They
were met by his worship with his usual firmness, and
failing to extort from him a promise of immediate and
indiscriminate employment, they proceeded next to the
lodgings of Mr. Barnes, C.F.., who has, during Mr. Car-
ter's absence, the management of affairs under the Board
of Works. To their demand for employment Mr.
Barnes answered by endeavouring to explain to them the
impossibility of his giving it until the presentment ses-
sions should have sat. He was replied to by murmurs
and threats, and the crowd then, saying they would be
fed, moved across to Mr. Magrath's bakery, who dis-
tributcd a quantity of bread to them spontaneously.
From Mr. Magrath's they moved down to Mr. Thomas
Dunphy's, into whose shop they attempted to break, but
were repulsed by the firmness of some of the men in his
employ. The Mayor at this moment arrived on the
spot, and addressed them in a manner which showed
that nothing would be extorted from him, at least by
violence; and they passed from thence along High-street
and Coalmarket, and then over to John-street, receiving
bread at several bakers' shops. The city was, as may
be supposed, in a state of considerable alarm for a while;
but as promptly as possible the police were under arms,
and a strong detachment of military marched through
the streets. The appearance of this force instantly dis-
persed the crowd, who melted away in silence. Now,
for the material of which this crowd was composed : we
are proud to record that, with the exception of perhaps
a dozen idle characters, who hang loose on the skirts
of society, they were all strangers, and the Kilkenny
men, even in this hour of privation, maintained their
accustomed character for peace and order. Nay, more—
deeply as we sympathise with the sufferings of the people,
of which sympathy our writings and our labours are
sufficient evidence, and though we saw with pain that
haggard want had left its ghastly traces upon the face of
many of the unfortunates whom we saw in the crowd,
the ringleaders on the occasion were men evidently un-
der the influence of liquor, and we noticed one man, in
the course of the afternoon, reeling drunk through the
streets, who had been most prominent in the outcry el
famine in the morning.
" As soon as order was restored, the new relief com-
mittee were assembled in the Tholsol, and proceeded to
investigate the claims of all those who really seemed
destitute. at which labour they continued the entire
day, and passed about 150 applicants, all belonging to
the city, and of whom we believe not five were engaged
in the disturbance of the morning. Sixty-six were im-
mediately set to work to break stones, the only labour
which could be offered at the moment, since it is scarely
possible just now to find merely manual labour for such
a multitude as will, doubtless, be enrolled on the relief
list. To meet the expenses attendant on giving work to
the numbers who require it, it becomes necessary to
rescind the allocation of the sums appropriated to the
different works on the 14th of August last, which have
not been completed; but we trust that, at the Present-
ment sessions, measures will be taken to ensure their
due completion, in connexion with the other works
which will then be laid out. We cannot close these
remarks without paying the tribute of our praise to the
mayor (left as he was, on the occasion, without the
assistance of any other magistrate), for the manner in
which he discharged the duties of his office."
MEASURES OF RELIEF.—LABOUR-RATE ACT.
The Lord Lieutenant has issued thirty-two additional
proclamations, for extraordinary sessions in sixteen
counties. The total number of proclamations issued is
now one hundred and fifty-nine.
The following letter from the Under-Secretary shows
the increasing demand for presentment sessions, owing
to the rapid spread of destitution throughout the
country.—

" Dublin Castle, Sept. 19, 1846.

" Gentlemen,—l am commanded by the Lord Lieu-
tenant to state, in reference to your representation of
the distress prevailing in the parish of Aghada, that from
the great 'umber of baronies in the county of Cork from
which reports of distress have been received, some delay
necessarily takes place in bringing the Poor Employ-
ment Act into operation; but his Excellency will, as
soon as possible, direct an extraordinary presentment
sessions to be held For the barony of Imokilly. I have
the honour to be, gentlemen, your obedient servant,

;‘ T. N. REDINGTON.
" Rev. Francis Shore and Rev. A. Peyton, Aghada."

REPEAL DEPUTY. LIEUTENANTS.

The Dublin Gazette of last night contains the
following:—
" The Lord Lieutenant has been pleased to approve of
the following gentlemen being re-appointed Deputy-
Lieutenants, viz.:—
Edmund B. Roche, Esq., for the county of Cork.
The Hon. Thomas Ffrench, for the county of Galway.
John J. Bodkin, Esq., for the county of Galway.
Sir Valentine Blake, Bart., for the county of the town
of Galway.
Maurice O'Connell, Esq.; M.P. for the county of Kerry.
Alm
gan John O'Connell, Esq. M.P. for the county
of Kerry. Thomas Lloyd, Esq., for the county of Limerick, and
Robert Dillon Browne, Esq., for the county of Mayo."
THE LATE FATAL ACCIDENT IN THE KING'S
COUNTY.—INQUEST ON THE LATE A. P.
DOOLIN, ESQ., J.P.
We have received a fuller account of the deplorable
occurrence near Shinrone. On Monday last, the Hon.
Colonel Westenra, M.P. for the King's County, and Mr.
A. P. Doolin, J.P., of Derry House, near Shinrone, were
out shooting on the lands of the Harrow, near Shara-
vogue House, the seat of the Hon. Member. In getting
over a ditch, the Colonel's foot was caught by a briar,
both ends of which were fast in the ground, and having
attempted to jump into the next field, the hoop formed
by the briar being concealed from observation, his jump
was arrested, and he was precipitated with great force
to the ground. In the fall, one barrel of a double de-
tonator which he carried exploded, and the contents of
the charge lodged between the shoulders of Mr. Doolin,
and penetrated to and shattered his lunge. Two nienof the

labouring class, who had been out with these gentlemen
as markers, hastened to procure assistance. Bath gentle-
men were carried to the house of a farmer, on the lands
of Harrow—the lamented Mr. Doolin in a dying state,
and Colonel Westenra, almost insensible, and unable
to move or utter a word. The agonising moans of
the expiring gentleman were responded to by the
convulsive throbbings of Colonel Westenra, who had
becn the innocent cause of the distressing scene in which
he formed a part. In that state Dr. Waters and Dr.
Arthur found the two friends, who were affectionately
attached to each other ; but the skill of those gentle-
men was of no avail—the injury sustained by Mr. Doolin
IN as past the power of man to remove or palliate, and in
Ic ss than an hour after the fatal discha'rge of Colonel
Westenra's gun, the beloved and lamented Mr. Doolin
was released from his sufferings.
Immediately after Mr. Doolin had expired, an inquest
was held on his remains by Mr. J. Dillin, Coroner, and
a respectable jury, to whom the facts of the case were
given in evidence. When the inquiry had been con-
cluded, the jury without a moment's hesitation, returned
a verdict of " Accidental death," and exonerated Colonel
Westenra from all blame in the deplorable transaction,
by which he lost a valued and attached frietg.
The bhock which society has sustained lay the me-
lancholy
death of Mr. Doolin will not soon subside. The
Coroner who held an inquest on his remains had been
speaking to him only three hours before. The poor, to
whom he was a generous employer and faithful magis-
trate, bewail his loss. His afflicted wife and three little
children, whom he left in the morning in happiness and
peace, never saw his return.
