EVICTION OF TENANTS.

The Tipperary Vindicator, of Saturday last, briefly alluded
to the service of ejectment notices on the tenantry of the
late Mr. Patrick Clarke, who fell a victim to the agrarian
code in the month of November last. Yesterday's cumber
of this paper enters into full particulars of the case, from
which it appears that the following " notice to quit" has been
served upo❑ forty-eight families :
" Take notice, that we do hereby require you to deliver up
to us, or to our agent, or bailiff, thereunto lawfully autho-
rised, on the Ist day of November next ensuing the date
hereof, the quiet and peaceable possession of all that and
those on part of the townsland of Rapla, situate a the
barony of Upper Ormond, and county Tipperary, and all
other lands, tenements, and hereditaments, and premises,
which you hold from or occupy under us, together with all
and singular the appurtenances thereunto belonging pro-
vided your tenancy concludes at that time of the year; and
if otherwise, that you quit and deliver up to us, our agent,
or bailiff, as aforesaid, the possession of all said premises at
the end of the year of your tenancy, which shall expire next
after the end of half a year from the time of your being
served with this notice.

" And take notice, that in case you shall refuse or neglect
to deliver up to us, or our said agent or bailiff lawfully
authorised, the quiet and peaceable possession of said pre-
mises, we will sue for double the yearly value of said pre-
mises, and all costs and expenses attending such proceedings,
pursuant to the statute in such case made and provided, or
take such proceedings against you as we may be advised.
" Witness our hands this Bth day of April, 1846.

" Each of these families," adds the Vindicator, " consists,
on an average, of six persons, and at the present moment
there are not, we understand, six barrels of potatoes among
the entire number. These houses, if indeed huts—huts too
of such a description that an Englishman would not breed
his dogs in them—can be called habitations for human beings,
present at, appearance of squalid misery not to be surpassed
in any country. Still these creatures were content—nay,
almost happy. It does not appear they owe any rent, nor
has such been claimed from them.

DISTRESS IN THE SHETLAND
ISLANDS.

Letters recently received from Shetland all concur in
stating that the islands are on the brink of famine.
The crops of corn, at no time adequate to the subsist-
ence of more than one-half the population (about 32,000
souls) were very ill got in last season, and to add to the
calamity, the stock .of potatoes, which the people are in
the habit of keeping in pits during the winter, and on
which they rely in a great measure for sustenance
during the spring and early part of the summer, have
been found, on opening the pits, Dearly all destroyed
by rot.

-'There is very little meal in the islands, and the people
have no money to purchase it with. Their fish is the
only commodity they have to give in exchange for
bread. The almost only customers they now have for
their fish are the Spaniards. From eight to ten sail of
Sp.tnish vessels now resort to the islands annually for
cargoes of fish, and the Spanish merchants would be
glad to send corn and flour in exchange for it, but the
corn-law prevents this from being done. A gentleman
connected with the island, resident in London, states
that a vessel from Spain is now actually on the way to
Shetland, in ballast, to load a cargo of fish, and would
have taken a cargo of flour could the repeal of the corn-
laws have been depended upon.
In one respect the case of the poor Shetlanders is
more desperate than that of the Irish. There are many
great and wealthy landed proprietors connected with
Ireland, who, it is to be presumed, cannot allow their
tenantry to starve. In Shetland there are no such
wealthy proprietors to whom a starving tenantry can
look for adequate relief. The means of the few small
proprietors in the Shetland islands are very limited, and
are already nearly exhausted by the necessities of a
miserable tenantry.
While Government is taking measures for rescuing
the people of Ireland from famine, the case of the Shet-
landers will surely not be overlooked.

FLANDERS, HAMBURGH, AND

DUTCH MAILS.

BitussELs, Arum 28.—The average price of wheat in the
week endir°r on Saturday, the 25th of April, was 23f. 32c.,
and that of Rye 16f. 89c. per hectolitre.
The Chamber of Representatives continue the debate on
the explanations relative to the formations of the Cabinet of
the 30th March. The interest taken in the discussion by the
public diminishes.
THE HAGIE, APRIL 27.—We have received by the Over-
land Mail accounts from our East India possessions to the end
of February.
Besides the well-known nonsense of opening the small
ports of Jara for the shipment of rice, and the decision in
favour of ships freighted by the commercial com-
pany, engaged to convey ric to the Nether-
lands, the Indian Government has soe ught to promote the
consignment of rice to the mother country, by facilitating
the communication from the interior of the fonts of Java.
It was not expected, however, that large consignments would
arrive from the interior, on account of the high prices and
the scarcity; in order to remedy the latter, the importation
of rice into Java is even permitted, duty free, without dis-
tinction of flags or from what place, till the end of 1846.
Prices were, however, falling, and in consequence of heavy
rains, which were much wanted, the fears of the failure of the
crops had been dispelled.
The expedition to the island of Balin is to consist of 1,800
men, Europeans and natives, and to be assembled about the
Ist of May at Sumanap, under the command of Lieutenant-
Colonel Pakker.

after which hour no person is to appear in the street without

POLISH FRONTIER, APRIL 15.—The accounts from the
Caucasus are still unfavourable. The Russian army has
suffered extremely this winter, not merely from the arms of
the mountaineers, who are extremely active, but still more
from the disorders which are very fatal at this soason in the
low swampy di-tricts. The ranks of the army in the Caucasus
are much thinned, and as no troops can be spared from Po-
land, a considerable number of troops will be necessary this
spring, unless it is resolved to give up the offensive system
which has hitherto proved so unsuccessful.
POSEN, APRIL 21.—We have just beard that in the course
of last night four political prisoners have made their escape
from our fortress, by what means is not known, and is diffi-
cult to conceive.

The German landowners, about forty in number, who have
assembled here, have really voted an address to the King,
but it is said to be drawn up in very general terms. It
was at first intended, as we understand, to propose a greater
representation of the German portion of the population in
the provincial assemblies, but this idea was fortunately given

WARSAW, APRIL 19.—The arrival of his Majesty the Em •
peror is expected on the sth of next month. It is said that
his Majesty will atop only a few days here, and proceed to
meet the Empress.
MUNSTER, APRIL 29.—The most incredible thing that can
happen has now taken place in Westphalia. Yester-
day morning the parish priest of Telgate, a worthy
man, was proceeding to the communion-table to ad-
minister the sacrament. When he took the cup, he
perceived in the wine a very peculiar strange taste; to the
great astonishment of the communicants, the priest stopped
the ceremony immediately, gave official information, and re-
quired that both the cup and the chalice should be exa-
mined. It was found that the wine was poisoned.
PosEN, APRIL 29:—Dr. Matecki, brother-in-law of Dr.

THE CARD TRICK AGAIN!
Notwithstanding the frequent cautions to strangers, which
appear in the columns of the local papers, to be on their
guard against the many impostors by whom the quays and
other thoroughfares of this great town are infested, it will
be seen that so far, at least, as Mr. Robert Frazer, a young
Scotch gentleman, is concerned, all those cautions have
been disregarded. Mr. Frazer, it appears, has arrived in
Liverpool with the intention of proceeding to America,
and is staying in town at the Angel Hotel in Dale-
street. Yesterday morning he was walking along
the docks when he was accosted by a "gentleman "
whom he had never seen before, but who very unceremoniously
took the liberty of asking him where he was going. Mr.
Frazer was communicative: be was going to see the Great
Britain. The " gentleman"—singular coincidence—was going
to see the monster too. They went t,gether. They saw the
vessel ; admired her accommodations above and below decks ;
and when they returned on shore the " gentleman" would
treat Mr. Frazer to a glass of wine at a tavern in Stanhope-
street. Mr. Frazer consented, and in the parlour another
" gentleman" was sitting, who, after awhile, began to describe
the heavy losses he had sustained the night before at card-
playing. " But," he added, " if, I had lost my money fairly
I should have been perfectly satisfied : as it was, I was
regularly tricked out of it." " How tricked ? " asked the
simple Mr. Frazer. " Why, by betting on red, when all the
red cards had been surreptitiously abstracted from the pack,"
was the reply. "I should like to see the trick," said Mr.
Frazer. "With all the pleasure imaginable, PA show it
you," responded the "gentleman ;" and thereupon he drew out
a pack of cards, arid apparently abstracted all the black ones.
from the pack. Mr. Frazer would het. "Just for the fun of
the thing he would try his hand once, though it was plain
that all the chances were in his favour." He bet a sovereign
upon red. Black was turned up. The "gentleman" fibbed
the sovereign. Mr. Frazer would try again. "The chances
were so much in his favour, that he surely must win this
time." He bet another sovereign upon red. Black was
turned up. "The "gentleman" fobbed a second sovereign.
" Well, it was very odd," r hought Mr. Frazer "all the black
cards had been visibly abstracted, and yet black came up."
He would try again, however. "There was luck in odd
numbers." He bet a third sovereign upon red. Black
was turned up. The "gentleman" fobbed a third sovereign.
A new light now broke in upon Mr. Frazer. He said "it was
a swindle—a cheat—and his companions were blacklegs;"
and he demanded his money back. They offered him ten
shillings if he would just keep his tongue quiet while they
turned the next corner, but he refused. He ran to the
door and called " Police." He had not to call long, for two
of the police in coloured clothes had seen Mr Frazer and his
blackleg companion return from the Great Britain to the
tavern ; and having formed a pretty shrewd guess that "some-
thing was up," they kept close at hand. The two blacklegs,
on hearing the cry of "Police," threw Mr. Frazer his three
sovereigns, and were making their escape from the house,
when they were pounced upon by the officers and taken to
Bridewell. Bundles of notes of the Bank of Elegance were
found in their pocket-books; and from the testimony of Mr.
Parkinson, it appeared that they were well known at Bride-
well. They gave their names John Robinson and Thomas
Nicholls, and they were both committed for trial on a charge
of conspiracy to defraud.— Liverpool Courier.
HAYMARKET THEATRE.

A new farce, entitled The Irish Tiger, was produced
here on Saturday, with complete success. The Irish
Tiger is a certain " Misther Paddy Ryan" (Mr. Hud-
son), who has seen in the paper an advertisement from
Mr. Alderman Marrowfat, who is desirous of engaging
an Irish servant, and Paddy, in consequence, applies for
the sitteation, which is not only readily presented to
him, but heis promised 6001. as wages, asked to dine with
his master, and is treated not merely as one of the
family, but infinitely better than any individual member
of it. The fact is, old Marrowfat has been seeking an
alliance for his daughter with a certain Sir Charles
Lavender, and has been informed that Sir Charles, in
order to become acquainted with the true dispositions of
the family into which he is about to enter, has deter-
mined to offer himself as a servant, and Paddy Ryan
is accordingly taken for and treated as Sir Charles.
When the Baronet himself arrives, he is of course
kicked and cuffed, and treated as though he were the
servant. The fun goes on for half an hour, and then
of course an eclarissement takes place. It is an amus-
ing trifle, and was capitally acted.

for which the Commissioners bid 8,4001., the sum of 8,1201. having
been in the elrcular. This was disposed of for 8,510/. For the sixth,

contained the Harrow-road, in which three gates were removed, for
which the Commissioners asked 1,120/. ; and the latter contained the
Kilburn and Edgeware-roads, put up at 4,126/. The ninth district
being the Highgate and Hampstead-roads, went for 17,530/., the
Commissioners' price being 17,520/. ; and the City-road (the tenth
district) was bought for 3,050/., the put-up price being 3,0401. The
eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth, and fourteenth districts ; and the
fifteenth and sixteenth districts, were bought In. The former in-
cluded the Stamford Hill-road, the Green Lanes'•road, end the Seven
Sisters'-road. Ott these six bars were removed—among them being
the Manor-house bar, which was the most valuable. The suns asked

LEEDS, Max 2.
STOCK EXCRANGE.--The improvement manifested in shares during
the week Iris been most decided, and highly enhanced prices have
been realised for all old Stocks. Many of the better class of scrips
have also advanced materially. The effect of this altered state of
things has been to bring heavy sellers forward, and prices to.daY
hays not been quite so fully maintained ; but in the absence of intel-
ligence from London and Liverpool, at neither of which markets was
any business done yesterday, we do not feel justified in saying more
than that buyers will do well not to act with too much precipitation
in purchasing for the ensuing account. The appearances in Leeds
certainly indicate some decline in prices just now, but that the decline
will be permanent we do not by any means anticipate. The all bat
certainty of a continuance of our peaceful relations with America-
the prospect of a speedy settlement of the tariff question, and the,
confidence resulting from Sir Robert Peel's " railway propositions,'
all tend to the continuance of high prices and the stability
of the
trade, which is not a little supported by the relieved state of financial
affairs, and the consequent cheapness of motley. The sales are--

The funeral of the lamented Countess of BeauchavidP,
took place on Saturday last, when her Ladyship's remains tvereet
posited in the family vault in Marylebone Church, by the side 01 of
mother, the late Dowager Countess of Clonmel. The Countess
40
Beauchamp died at Brighton on Sunday the 26th of April, fillet' oil
illness of a few days. Her Ladyship left London for that place,,,d,
Saturday the 19th, and on Sunday attended the church at Werthlt7o
The day was extremely cold, and on her return to Brighthn ,De
evening her Ladyship walked by the sea side, when it is believe('
got a chill, which was temporarily relieved by a hot bath on the 1,0
lowing morning ; but from that day her strength declined, and o 4
gradually sunk. It is, however, satisfactory to her friends to fin
that her illness was not attended with much pain, and that her +d
hours were marked by great calmness and tranquillity. The Earl tli
~
g
Beauchamp arrived at Brighton from Derby at three o'clock o_TIOO--
morning of Saturday, and with her Ladyship's nephew, the o
able Captain Scott, remained by the bedside of his estimable Contereuntil all was over. On Monday his Lordship accompanied tile
mains by special train to Portman-square, where he has received to •
condolenee of numerous friends, to whom the affability and rai‘'
amiable qualities of the lamented Countess had endeared her.
RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—A serious accident occurre,
last night to the Dover mail train, which leaves London-bridge
half-past eight o'clock, and which, when going at the rate of 11_,It'ie
miles an hour, ran into an engine which was on its way to the
d.
cross station from London-bridge. This engine had become disab":„
and at a stand-still, and the proper signals were given in
quence to step the mail train which followed it. As far as can r,("f
be ascertained these signals were not observed by the engine-Woo
of the mail train. Ile was so surrounded by the steam which he ,rl,O
blowing oil; that he did not see the first signal that was made. 10,
engine-driver of the disabled engine, seeing that the signals were
tiio
regarded, ran forward with a light to stop the mail train, and,,,lji,
was of some use, and the speed was slackened. The place of 'ers'
sion was between the junction of the Greenwich and Brickla)
Arms Railways with the Croydon. The stoker of the mail . 10d
engine had one of his legs fearfully crushed between the engine
the tender. The engine-driver fortunately escaped. Several of:,
passengers were severely bruised ; they were removed to the Brilis
house Hotel, under the care of Mr. Castles, of the London-Weir.
station, and every attention was paid to them that the painful 0e
cumstances demanded. As far as yet can be ascertained, no
can be attached to any one—the occurrence was entirely acciden„la
The mail train and those passengers who did not require to tern it
in town were forwarded to Dover by special train at ten o'.(:lre
At the very time of this accident there was a fire at Cold
tGb
Wharf, close to the spot where the above accident occurred, Ah of
was believed to be occasioned by the igniting of railway sleeper'sfiro
which there was a large quantity in store ; how they caught
could not be ascertained.
