Ryan (' Puck'), for a similar crime—is the subject f
of conversation in Limerick to-day. The particulars I
are not, as yet, generally known, but the rumoured
circumstances in connexion with this outrage are
these :—That the unfortunate victim, a farmer of the
humbler class, named Martin M'Mahon, residing at a
place called Cartloe, in the county of Clare, had his
habitation broken into on Thursday at midnight, by
a party of eight men, armed, and with their faces
blackened. On making a search for arms, resistance
was offered to them ; and, after a conflict, desperate
though unequal, M'Mahon was shot dead, he having
previously smashed, with 'a shovel, a gun of one of
the party which had been presented at him. Six or
the party were almost immediately arrested by the
police."
The columns of the Tipperary papers are begin-
ning to exhibit symptoms of the renewal of outrage
in the North Riding, which, it was hoped, had been
reduced to at least partial submission by the terrors
of an impending special commission. The hope,
however, was delusive. Attacks on dwelling-houses,
serving of threatening notices, and incendiarism are
as rife as of old. Among a list of non-agrarian
crimes, the Nenagh Guardian gives the subjoined
account of a husband murdered by his wife, -who,
it seems, perpetrated the deed while in a state of
insanity :
" The parish of Killahara, near Borrisoleigh, was
thrown into an unusual state of sensation by the
awful murder of Cornelius Cleary by his wife. The
particulars of this deed of blood are briefly as follows :
—On the evening of the sth instant Cleary, who was
an industrious farmer and comfortably circumstanced,
retired to bed earlier than was customary with
I him, he having been suffering from slight indisposi-
tion. When he had been about two hours in bed he
fell asleep, when his wife stealthily and quietly ap-
proached his bedside with a hatchet in her hand, with
which she struck her ill-fated husband several blows
on the head and neck, inflicting with every blow a
mortal wound. The unfortunate man, whose head,
neck, and body were frightfully mutilated, died on
the following day. His wife, when she committed
the foul crime, was a maniac, and had for some time
previously been insane. ghe made no effort to escape
after committing the murder. On Friday Mr. Thomas
O'Meara held an inquest on the body. A jury having
been sworn, the above particulars of the murder
having been given in evidence, and the state of the
murderer's mind having been proved, they returned
the following verdict:—" We find that on the sth
instant Cornelius Cleary received wounds on the
head from a hatchet, of which he lingered, and died
on the night of the 6th instant, at Killahara, which
were inflicted by his wife, Margaret Cleary, she being
at the time of unsound mind, and for some time
previously.' Mrs. Cleary has been committed to
Nenagh gaol to abide her trial at the approaching
assizes.

MARKET NEWS._ (THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.
The arrivals of English Wheat for our market during
the present week have been moderate, and several fresh
runs were received up this morning. Owing to the
dampness of the weather, most of the samples were
greatly out of condition. The few fine parcels or. offer
told at Monday's prices; but all other kinds were heavy,
and, in some instances, the turn in favour of the buyers.
The show of foreign Wheat was not large; yet. that
grain was heavy, and previous rates were with difficulty
supported. For Barley—the supply of which was good—
the inquiry was inactive. In prices we have no change
to report. Malt was in moderate supply, and sluggish
demand, at barely late rates. The supply of Oats being
small, the Oat trade was steady, and prices were well
supported. Beans, Peas, and Indian Corn were Leglected.
Fine parcels of Flour were quite as dear.

SMITHFIELD.
For the time of year the supply of Beasts here to-day
was tolerably good, and we have to notice a slight im-
provement in its general quality. The attendance of
buyers being small, and the weather very unfavourable
to slaughtering, the Beef trade was heavy, at a decline
in the quotations of 2d per 81bs. There were on sale
only 47 Beasts and 600 Sheep from Holland, in fair aver-
age condition. The numbers of Sheep were very limited,
yet the Mutton trade was exceedingly heavy, at almost
nominal curr..ncies. For Calves the demand was firm,
at prices fully • gull to those paid on Monday last.
Pigs moved off slowly, at late rates. Mulch Cows were
a mere drug, at from 141 to 171 lOs each, including their
small Calf.

THE PUBLIC BEALTIL

It is highly satisfactory to be enabled to state that,
while coughs and colds have prevailed, and such nu-
merous deaths have taken place in other parts of the
kingdom, this town has been as free from them as in
other years. The Registrar's return of deaths for the
quarter ending the 31st of Dec.,1846, was 18 ; in the
same quarter of 1847, it was 19, out of a population
of about 4,500.

TAXES ON NEWSPAPERS.—The tax on paper is
three halfpence per pound, with an addition of live per
cent. ; practically, it is one penny three farthings in
sevenpence—the price of a pound of paper, or about
twenty-one per cent. on the value of the article. On
newspapers there is a further duty, in the shape of a
penny stamp on each sheet. The duty and the stamp on
one thousand copies of the Sheffield Times amount to at
least si. 10s., or about thirty per cent. The advertise-
ment duty on one line is forty per cent. These duties
are retained, too, by a Government which professes it-
self anxious for the diffusion of information and intelli-
gence at a cheap rata; and is, moreover, desirous of
being considered as at all times favourable to the exten-
sion of trade, of which the newspaper is the fly-wheel.
After having toiled all the week, a poor man enjoys his
newspaper. He thinks that he, as well as his richer
neighbours, ought to know how " the world wags." In
this praiseworthy object he is opposed by an enormous
tax, which seems intended for the very purpose of keep-
ing the people in ignorance. A striking instance of the
impolicy of a tax on knowledge was given the other day
by Messrs. Chambers, in their Edinburgh Journal, is
announcing that they were about to discontinue their
Miecellaxy. The cost of the paper employed in this
publication was 25,7661., in which sum is included 5,4311.
paid as duty. Thus the Government has reaped a greater
share of profit than they who had to endure the whole
of the risk and toll.—Sheffield Times.
Mr. John O'Connell has accepted, in the name of
his family, an invitation, conveyed to him by Count de

FRAN CE.

M. Stenio, an agent sent by the inhabitants of Pa-
lermo with a petition to the National Assembly of
France, has arrived in Paris, and requested an audi-
ence of the Minister of Foreign Affairs.
" It appears," says the Corsaire, " that there is
really some talk of a mariage dinclinaison between
the Right of the Assembly and the moderate Left.
The conditions are said to be, first, the concession of
two portfolios of Ambassador given to M. Leon de
Malleville and to M. Drouyn de l'lluvs ; these two
representatives would have, it is said, to replace, one,
M. Savoye, Ambassador at Frankfort, and the other,
M. Emmanuel Arago, Charge d'Affaires at Berlin.
In the second place, the Left side is, the report goes,
to accept M. Thiers as Vice-President, and the Right
to receive General Cavaignac as sole candidate for the
office of President."
The Journal du Havre of yesterday has the follow-
ing :—" M. Cabet arrived here this morning by the
railroad, at the head of a column of forty or fifty
Communists, who are to embark sh?rtly. for New
Orleans, in the Bremen ship the Victoria, Captain
Madero. M. Cabet himself, whatever the Paris
journals may say, is not vet disposed to take his de-
parture for the Land of Promise, and is come to Havre
only to superintend the arrangements for the passage
of his disciples."
The Journal du Havre says :—" We are assured
that the negotiations of the Argentine Republic have
resumed their course with the French Republic, by
the intervention of M. Sarratea, Minister of the
Argentine Republic, who never left Paris, notwith-
standing the situation of the affairs of La Plata. The
mission is said to have been specially imposed on him
by a veto, which Rosas charged him to remit to the
French Government."

AUSTRIA.

The Augsburg. Gazette of the 21st inst. contains

communicated by them to the British and French
Governments. The writer adds that the Austrian
Government is determined not to deviate from the
project transmitted, and that it remains for the me-
diating powers to show by their acts that they seriously
desire the maintenance of peace.

EXTENSIVE FIRE.—(THIS DAY.)--NARNOW ES-
CAPE OF TEN PERSONS.—A few minutes before three
o'clock this morning police-constable 126 E, while on
duty in King-street, Holborn, discovered the lower part
of the Angel and Trumpet public-house on fire. He in-
stantly sprung his rattle, assistance was obtained, and no
time lost in sending for the Brigade and West of Eng-
land engines, which shortly arrived, before which the
Royal Society firevescape had been the means of rescuing
the family from the upper windows. Fortunately on the
arrival of the engines a good supply of water was ob-
tained, and the flames were subdued, but not until the
bar, bar-parlour, and the stock of the house were de-
stroyed. Mr. Cohan, the landlord, could not account for
the fire, but he is amply insured in the Licensed Vic-
tuallers' Company. But for the timely assistance ren-
dered the inmates must have perished, such was the dif-
ficulty of escape.

vinces of Ciudad Real and Toledo are at present, and
the necessity of invigorating the action of the military
authority, in order to put an end to the evils produced
by the bands of robbers, who, sheltered by the inequali-

" Art. 1. The provinces of Ciudad Real and Toledo

visions requisite for producing the desired effect.

• PRUSSIA

The new Ministryis very unpopular, and an emeute
is expected to break out in Berlin. The peasantry
in the country have risen. On the 19th they attacked
and nearly demolished the chateau of Count LINA;
near Lubbenau.

A letter rom Cologne of the 26th says—

.‘ All this day great excitement ha; prevailed in
Cologne, in consequence of the arrest of three indi-
viduals charged, it is said, with being concerned in a
plot for bringing about a republican movement. One
of the prisoners (Herr Wachter), a captain in the civic
guard, was rescued by a crowd of hastily•assembled
persons from the hands of the gendarmes. Another
popular orator (Herr Mole) was also arrested this
morning; but the six gendarmes who captured him in
his house were obliged to let him go and make a pre-
cipitate flight. About eleven, A.ie., a number of lads,
who attempted to erect a barricade near the arsenal,
were taken prisoners by the military, who loaded their
guns in the presence of the crowd.. An open-air meeting
was held this evening in the Alien market, notwithstand-
ing the proclamation of the police prohibiting it. All the
windows of the house of the Director of Police, and in
the police-office itself, had been previously destroyed by
a tumultuous assemblage. About seven, P.H., the mili-
tary took possession of the main squares. The majority
of the civic guard bare resolved, it is said, not to take
part against the e people, should a collision occur. All the
gates of the city are guarded by soldiers, and no one is
allowed to enter, the authorities fearing that numerous
peasants will arrive to take part in the insurrection.
"HALF-PAST EIGHT, P.M.—Matters look threatening;
shots are heard in different directions."

Verbal reports from Berlin up to the 23d state,
that public peace has in nowise been interrupted
there.—Hamburgh Boraenhalle, Sept. 23.

HUNGARY AND CROATIA.

The Hungarian general TELEKT has turned traitor.
After purposely permitting JELLACUICII and his
Croats to get possession of several strongholds, he
openly joined the BANN, pleading that his allegiance to
Austria compelled him to do so.
The traitor is now in Vienna.

Visrime, SEPT. 21.—A. courier arrived last night
at the Hungarian Ministry in this capital, bringing
the intelligence of the taking of the entrenched en-
campment of the insurgents at,. St. Thomas. Rumours,
however, are afloat to-day which do not confirm that
intelligence. Equally little credit can be given to the
report which was circulated here yesterday, that the
Hungarians and Croat armies have had an engage-
ment at Wesseprom, since it is known for a fact that
the Bann JELLACIIICH is still in Komoran.

but musttheir w
to the wifeless bosom—brings no return for the childless borne.
It is a remarkable fact that the unproductiveness of soil and
species arises from similarity of cause. Some lands are
the produce of vitiated strata that yields an offspring as
unhealthy as itself. Others nurture in their juices the poison of
minerals, which form the foe to 'vegetation. Others again lose value
by being too early worked, before they are fit for cultivation, Some
soils, originally fertile, become barren by excess of tillage; others
are spoiled by unwholesome manures ; and others, again, by the
want of perseverance and nerve In the husbandman. Mark the ana-
logy 1 Man also is too often vitiated by the parent from whom he
springs. Man is too often ruined by the indiscriminate use of mine-
rals, such as mercury, &c. Man also tries his constitution too early,
and avertasks it too late. Man, by unwholesome contact can also in-
fect his f-ame ; and, to render the comparison complete, man can
render a naturally vital constitution unproductive through ignorance
of his orgaqization and diffidence in his powers. Nor does the analogy
cease here. The detriments to cultivation above detailed have been
recently se entirely overcome by modern improvement in agricul-
ture, that farmers are now enabled to produce crops almost from
stone itself; and, in like manner, Sterility in the human race is now
removable through the profound discoveries in physic which enlighten
the present ago. In testimony of this, a volume has recently been
produced which fills the heart with hope and is calculated to remove
Sterility altogether. It is from the pen of Messrs. J. L. CURTIS
AND CO., Consulting Surgeons, 7, Frith-street, Soho-square,
London, and bears the title of " MANHOOD: The Causes of its
Premature Decline, with Plain Directions for its Perfect Re-
storation ;" and is sent by W. STRANGE, bookseller, 21, Pater-
