HORRIBLE MURDER.

Our Limerick correspondent furnishes us with the sad de
tails of an awful murder, -which was perpetrated under
circumstances of appalling atrocity, within a few miles of the
city of Limerick, on Sunday evening. It appears that,
on the evening in question, the house of a respectable
farmer, of the name of Laurence Leahy, was en-
tered by an armed gang of miscreants, who at once
called on him to kneel down. Leahy is the father of a
large family of eleven children, and he has enjoyed through
life a fair and respectable character. It is impossible ex-
actly to state how he became obnoxious to the sanguinary
miscreants by whom this cruel murder was planned aad
executed with a desperate and diabolical resolution; but the
fact appears to be that having entered his dwelling and the
murderers having called for him, the party attacked and fired
at him at his door, and murdered him in the bosom of his
truly afflicted family. We have heard that he was a tenant
of Sir Matthew Barrington, Bart. Another account assures
us that he lived near Cahirnarry Church, and was tenant of
Mr. John Cripps, formerly an Alderman of Limerick. The
murderers, not content with dispatching their victim, also fell
upon the domestic servants and such members of the family
as came within their reach ; but it is a feature in the transac-
tion somewhat consoling, that the miscreants met with a warm
reception from the faithful servants of poor Leahy We have
heard that the servants encountered the villains with a most
determined bravery, and actually made prisoners of two of the
banditti, who were handed over to the police, and brought on
Monday evening into Limerick gaol. It is stated to us also
that the assassins have been identified as the same who, a few
years ago, were tried for the murder of Mr. Shine, at Carrig-
parsons, not far from the same neighbourhood, and who have
been prowling about the country ever since.

ATTACK ON A POLICE PATROL IN THE COUNTY

OF LIMERICK.

Sunday night, as the police of Ahane, a parish adjoining
and in the union of Castle Connell, ware on patrol, they
came up with an armed party, consisting of four or five
men, near General Burke's gate at Ahane. The police, it
appears, as in duty bound, called upon the armed party to
stand and surrender; but this they resolutely refused to
do, bidding defiance to the constables, and calling on
them to come on ! Constable Collins, a very active and
efficient member of the force, immediately stepped for-
ward, accompanied by three other policemen, when a fire
was opened on both sides, and continued for some' time
with unceasing briskness between the police and the
banditti. The shots were heard at a very great dis-
tance, and considerable alarm was created throughout
the district—the people not knowing from what the
shots proceeded. We deeply regret to state two of the
policemen—Collins and another, whose name we have not
heard, were dangerously wounded—one through the jaw and
neck, the other in the chest, in which, we learn, two balls
were driven. It is needless to say that the recovery of the
policemen is extremely doubtful. The assailants, it would
appear, escaped, nor has it been discovered whether they were
seriously injured in the rencontre—except from traces of blood
which were found in the direction they proceeded, on the fol-
lowing morning. Since the above was put in type, we have
learned that the unfortunate constable has died df his
wounds, and another account states that a second policeman
has also died, whilst a third is severely wounded. The party
on patrol belonged to the Anacotty station, and consisted of
four men only, including the constable. The armed banditti,
we are told, numbered fourteen, and proceeded with desperate
determination to work. The utmost dismay and consterna-
tion pervades the entire district in consequence of this truly
awful outrage.
INSURRECTIONARY MOVEMENT IN LIMERICK.
On Friday last a large number of people assembled on the
lands of Sir Capel Molyneux, Knocksentry, bled
on
to prevent the service of ejectments. Many of them
were armed with pitchforks and scythes, and they had a
large number of fire-arms which they bad piled on an old
fort, a la militaire. They were regularly encamped; had
their watch-fires, and bivouacked all night in the fields.
They fired several shots for the purpose of intimidation and
defiance. The police were brought out, but wt re afraid to
encounter them on account of their superior numbers. Mr.
Tracy,, 'stipendiary magistrate, went to them on Saturday,
when they asked him if he had come to enforce the service
of ejectment? He said he did not. They then asked what
brought him there? He replied, " To send them home."
They then gave three cheers for Mr. Tracy. They did not,
however, take Mr. Tracey's advice, and ultimately the mili-
tary had, to be sent for, and about two o'clock on Saturday
two hundred men of the 24th and 83d Regiments, with a
troop of the 13th Light Dragoons, left this garrison for
Knocksentry, under the command of Colonel Mansel. Upon
the approach of the military the greater number of the in-
surgents dispersed, while the remainder still kept their
ground, .notwithstanding that the Riot Act was read two or
three times. Among the more violent and contumacious
were John Burke, Patrick Ryan, and John O'Brien, who
were ariesteil by the police and lodged in the City gaol.
This proceeding on the part of the peasantry has struck
consternation into the peaceable and orderly portion of the
community ; and every good man, every man 'who loves
his country, and wishes to see her great and prosperous,
ought to unite to put down such an atrocious system of vio-
lence and anarchy. Limerick Reporter.
THE MURDER AT BALLYNEETY.
Dsmns, JAN. 15.—Yesterday (Tuesday) James Bennett,
Esq., held an inquest on the body of Laurence Leahy, at
Ballyneety. A respectable jury was empannelled. Croker
Barrington, and William H. Barrington, Esqs., sons of Sir
M. Barrington, Leaby's landlord, attended the inquiry. From
the statement of the wife of deceased, it appeared that on
Sunday evening an armed party knocked at the door,
hgt Ween five and six o'clock, and demanded admittance,
which was granted. On entering the kitchen where
Leahy essze sitting with his family, four men armed
attacked him ; yet Leahy knocked down the four, one
after the other. At this time the attention of Mrs. Leahy
was attracted by anotherof the party, who was running
towards an adjoining room, and on her return to
the kitchen, she found the party with whom her husband
was engaged, beating him heavily on L./Se head. Leahy
soon fell on his back, and the wife threw
rself over his
body to protect him. They next struck him violeilsr on the
legs with a gun, and fired a shot, which penetrated Ms
They struck Leaky's wife on the head several violent blow,:
with a blunderbuss. The man whom Mrs. Leahy followed
from the apartment in which she was at the time the party
first entered, ran into the room after her daughter, and struck
her several blows, compelling her to swear that she would
not divulge who they were. On their first entrsnce to
jseahy's dwelling, the assailants called out, " heads down,"
and as they passed on to where Leahy was, they struck his
servant-man of the head, who, from the effect of the injuries
received, now lies cta;'.:erously ill in the County Infirmary.
According to the testimony vf Doctors Wilkinson and Parke,
it appeared that Leahy's right leg was dreadfully fractured,
as well by the preshot wound as b;' the blows received.
The jury returned a verdict of wilful murders
An awful murder was perpetrated on Moti,day last, at
Anglesborough, in this county, six miles from MifeLelstown,
end connected with the letting of land, when a respectable
farmer named Lynch was shot dead on the public road, and
within twenty yerds of his dwelling, at mid-day. Mr.
Knaresborough, S.M., Major Hill, 54th, Dr. Phelan, and the
police, were in a few hours on the spot, when the corpse of
the murdered man presented an awful appearance, having
four wounds on the body. The shots were heard by his
family and neighbours, and the assassins were seen running
off. The police of the district cautioned him about his farm,
as he was a marked man.
At Kishyquirk, within a few miles of this city, the houses
of the following farmers, all tenants of the Earl of Clare, in
that district, were attacked by armed men on Friday night,
and who took a gun each from William Donnelly, 'Thomas
Collopy, Thomas . Collopy (William), Patrick Lynch, and
John Finucane. The same marauders attacked the houses
of John Collopy, Thomas Fitzgerald, and Matthew Bourke,
also tenants of Lord Clare, but did not succeed in their
search for arms.
Sunday evening, at an early hour, a Rock notice was.
affixed to Pealield House, near this city, the residence of Mr.
William Roche, threatening him with Captain Rock's ven-
geance, unless he remits the rent of potato ground which he
had set at 30s. an acre under the general rate, and subse-
quently reduced 40s. the acre; but this was not sufficient.
Roche gives liberal and constant employment in the
neighbourhood at Is. a day to farm labourers, besides food,
yet such is his reward.

The following report was previa
In meeting the shareholders at 1

ge Pollard, Esq.
Tilson and Squanee,
ted :
the beginning of the year, the Di-

rectors have the satisfaction to state, that the business of the Bank
continues steadily to improve, as will appear from the balance sheet
herewith submitted for their perusal and Information.
From this it will be seen that the transactions of the Bank during
the past half-year have netted a clear profit of 20,1301. Bs. Bd., which,
after paying a dividend at the rate of 61. per cent. per annum on the
capital stock, free from income-tax, will leave a balance of
2,1301. Ss. Bd., to be carried to the reserve, which, together with the
interest due thereon, raises the amount of the guarantee fund to the
sum of 96,2971. 2s. 6d.

The seats in the direction to be vacated on the present occasion are
those occupied by Archibald Mastic, Esq., M.P., William Mitcalfe,
Esq., Ambrose Moore, Esq., John Timothy Oxley, Esq., and William
Shadbolt, Esq., all of whom have given notice that they are candi-
dates for re-election.
In conformity with the recommendation of the Proprietors at the
last general meeting, that the Board should take into their considera-
tion the practicability of instituting a fund for the benefit of the clerks
of the establishment, in case of sickness, age, or other incapacity aris-
ing while in the service of the Bank, the Directors have to state that
the recommendation has had their anxious and deliberate considera-
tion ; and that, with a due regard to all the interests concerned, they
have arrived at the conclusion that the satisfactory management of
such a fund would be most difficult, if not impossible, and they, there-
fore, cannot recommend its adoption.
The half-yearfs dividend will be payable on and after Friday, the
23d day of January inst.
The preceding report baying been read to the meeting by the Se-
cretary, a dividend for the half-year ending the 31st December last,
after the rate of 6/. per centum per annum, was declared by the
Chairman.
Resolved unanimously, That the report now read be received, and
that it be printed for the use of the Shareholders.
The following Directors having retired from office, by virtue of the
provisions of the deed of settlement, were unanimously re-elected,

viz. :
Archibald Hastie, Esq., M.P. John Timothy Oxley, Esq.
William Mitcalfe, Esq. William Shadbolt., Esq.
• Ambrose Moore, Esq.
Resolved, That it Is not expedient that the Directors should recom-
mend any one of the candidates to the Proprietors upon any occasion
of a vacancy.
Resolved unanimously, That the thanks of this meeting be pre-
sented to the Chairman and Directors for their good management of
the affairs of the Bank, and for their uniform kindness to the pro-
prietors.
Resolved unanimously, That the thanks of this meeting be given
to George Pollard, Esq , the Manager, for his unremitting attention
to the interests of the Bank.
WILLIAM CURLING, Esq., Chairman.
Resolved unanimously, That the warmest thanks of the meeting
be tendered to the Chairman for his able, courteous, and impartial
condnet in the chair.

NICOLL'S PALETOT, registered 6 and 7 Vic.,
cap. 65, is patronised by the Prince Consort, Prince George
of Cambridge, &c., and is generally acknowledged to excel all other
great coats. The cloth is made of Llama Wool, known to be porous,
yet naturally repellant of rain.
In the neighbourhood of the extensive Warerooms, 114, Regent-
street, a few small shops are so far unprincipled as to assume a
similarity of name, intending to impose upon strangers some trashy
substitute. Messrs. Nicoll think it due to their own reputation thus
to caution the public, and to suggest that a copy of the Address be
preserved ; and they further offer a Reward of Fifty Pounds for the
detection of a Positive Infringement.
Black Llama Cloth, from its soft elastic nature, is well adapted for
Evening Dress Coats—to be had only of the Patentees.
Each correct registered Paletot is stamped in the lining "11. J. and
D. Nicoll, 114, Regent-street, London."

cious, that they will cut short the most violent paroxysm of cough-
