IRELAND.

DUBLIN, THURSDAY.—The accounts from the
Queen'► Couhty, received this morning, show that a
most painful sensation had been caused by the atro•
cious and unprovoked murder of Mr. Edward White,
and the circumstances by which it was accompanied.
Much stress is placed upon the fact, admitted by the
Kilkenny Journal, that the unfortunate gentleman
was murdered "on the public road, not more tban
half a mile from a police station, and surrounded by
labourers reaping in the fields." Already arrange
ments are in progress for a meeting of magistrates, to
devise measures, in co-operation with the Govern-
ment, for the discovery of the parties concerned in
this frightful outrage. For a long time the Queen's
County had been free from agrarian disturbances, and
a better understanding seemed to have prevailed be-
tween landlords and tenants than in most other coun-
ties, It was only within the last week that Sir
Charles Coote, Sir William Hart, Mr. Rutland, and
other proprietors, had entered into undertakings to
provide employment or support for the paupers on
their estates out of the workhouse, thus relieving the
ratepayers from anything in the shape of poor-law
taxation, unless the mere proportion of the establish-
ment charges on their respective electoral divisions.

THE HARVEST.—The accounts of the potato crop
are much the same as tor the last week or two, the
blight extending amongst the foliage, but still causing
no very serious injury amongst the tubers. The
cereal harvest is progressing favourably, although
partial losses have been caused by the recent storms.
The Limerick Chronicle of yesterday, in its harvest
report, says—" The potato crop continues to improve,
and the more that are dug out proves to demonstra-
tion the falsity of the reports circulated with regard
to the blight having attacked them. There were 160
loads at market this day, all sound, and selling at from
3d. to 3id. per stone. We had to-day about 20 loads
of new wheat at market, quality good, and sold at
121. to 13,-1. per stone. A tew loads of oats in to-day,
and sold at Bd. per stone."
COMMISSIONER OF MEDICAL CHARITIES. The
Limerick Chronicle states that Dr. Corrigan, of this
city, has been appointed Medical Commissioner for
Ireland, under the Medical Charities Act of last ses-
sion.

THE LORD LIEUTENANT.-It is stated that the
Earl and Countess of Clarendon are expected to ar-
rive at the Vice•regal Lodge, in the Phcenix Park,
the week after next.

CHOLERA AND DIARRHCCI.—We regret to learn
that dysentery, and that description of cholera known
as "British" or "native," are more prevalent at pre,:
sent in Belfast than such diseases have generally been
at this season. The majority of the individuals at-
tacked comprise the young and the aged ; but many
severe cases have occurred among persons of strong
constitution in the prime of life. The deaths have
not, we are happy to state, been numerous.—Belfast
News Letter.

MURDER Ix TIPPERARY•—A correspondent of the
Clonmel Chronicle, in a letter dated Fethard, Aug.
26, says :—" lam sorry to have to inform you that
our town has been the scene of a most awful tragedy.
The unfortunate victim was a person named Holmes.
I understand he, with his brother, proceeded to the
house of a man named Wall, a shoemaker, who was
at the time eating his dinner, but previously bad a
dispute with one of the party in the Areet, the whole
parry being under the influent of drink. When the
door was opened, they met apparently on good terms.
Holmes asked Wall what was it be accused him of
previously, when immediately the latter rushed at
Holmes, and run him through the abdomen with a
shiirp pointed shoemaker's knife, of which wound he
lingered until this morning, at two o'clock, when
death put an end to. his sufferings. I understand the
other brother had his eye nearly cut out, also by Wall,
before the knife was taken from him. He lies in a
dangerous state. Informations were taken yesterday
before the Hen. M. J. French, on which Wall was
committed."

HER, MAJEST Y'S PROGRESS.

DEPARTURE OF HER MAJESTY FROM
DONCASTER.

THURSDAY.

The festivities at Doncaster, last night, were on an
extended scale. The streets for some hours after her
Majesty's arrival continued so crowded as to be nearly
impassable, arid as the evening closed in every house
of any pretension, and there are many such in this
the sporting capital of England, had its front adorned
with some illuminated device, among which the " V.
A.'s" and "V. R.'s" and stars of Brunswick, were
most conspicuous. When these were lighted up they
produced a pleasing effect, and, added to some bril-
liant fireworks that were prepared at the expense of
the corporation, contributed to keep the whole popu-
lation in the streets. The effect of the whole, how-
ever, was sadly marred by a shower of rain which
began to fall between nine and ten o'clock, and which
continued to fall during the night. This had the
effect of speedily dispersing the crowd, and by eleven
the streets were quite silent. The illuminations were
left to wink on vacancy, and the triumphal arches
with all their flags and loyal mottoes were abandoned
to solitude. With the exception of the guard of
honour, composed of a detachment of the 85th In-
fantry, that was stationed at the door of the good old
fashioned Angel Inn, there was no one to have told
a stranger that the Queen of England had taken up
her quarters for the night in the town.
By six o'clock this morning, however, the town
was recalled to its duties and loyalty by the merry
peals of the bells from the fine and commanding tower
of St. John's Church, and soon after groups of twos
and threes might be seen in the streets, hastening, at
that early hour, to take up their position in the line
through which the royal party was to pass. The
streets were lined, as last night, with a detachment of
the West Riding Yeomanry. Admirably mounted
they all were, and they looked as grim and held their
swords as firmly:as if they felt the safety of England's
Monarch depended upon their vigilance.
By half-past eight the Queen was again in motion ;
and leaving the Angel, sbe took her way through the
same route as last evening. The streets were not so
crowded as on the previous night, but the stands, es-
pecially those near the station, were almost as well
tilled as before. The rain had passed away with the
darkness, the sun shone out brightly, so that Don-
caster formed no exception to the beautiful weather
with which the Queen is favoured on her jour-
neys. By a quarter to nine o'clock, or fully a
quarter of an hour sooner than the time fixed,
her Majesty entered the royal carriage, accompanied
by Lord John Russell and the members of her suite.
The mayor and corporation, who were again on the
platform to pay their parting respects to the Sovereign,
here took leave of her, and the royal train, which by
this time had become considerably elongated by the
addition of a number of trucks, containing the Queen's
private carriages, was drawn out of the station amid
the cheers of the multitude. The train proceeded at
a rapid pace for about a dozen miles, when the speed
was suddenly slackened and the engine proceeded as
slowly as if approaching a station. The cause of this
was speedily apparent. The line traversed at this
point an extensive morass, overgrown with osiers, in
the immediate neighbourhood of the Aire and Calder
Navigation, and the works themselves being new and
unfinished, and the ground apparently little better
than a quaking bog, the engineer prudently proceeded
very gingerly along. Over the river itself, which is
here of a considerable breadth, a sort of Menai tubu-
lar bridge in miniature is thrown.
When this difficult piece of ground was once fairly
cleared, the engineer, by way of making up for lost
time, proceeded at a rapid pace towards York, where
the train arrived about 5 minutes before 10 o'clock.
York, it will be remembered, is not what is called a
" through station"—the train running north and south
must pass on to a small branch line to reach the town.
In compliance with her Majesty's wishes the train did
not go into the station, but halted at the point of
junction between the York and North Midland line,
and the York, Newcastle, and Berwick line. Here
the jurisdiction of Mr. Denison and his co-directors
ended, and here Mr. Leeman, the chairman of the
York, Newcastle, and Berwick Company ; Alderman
Meek, of York ; and other of his co-directors were in
waiting to take their places. The successful termi-
nation of the journey so far must have been a great
relief to the mind of Mr. Denison, who showed him-
self all through the journey painfully anxious for the
safety of his Royal charge. At the same time Mr.
Sturrock, the locomotive superintendent, who had
driven the train from town, gave up his charge to Mr.
Harrison, of the York and Berwick line.
