DUBLIN, THURSDAY MORNING;.
THE MUTINY IN THE TIPPERARY MILITIA.
The Irish journals bring full details up to a late
hour on Wednesday night, at which time the,town
of Nenagh was quiet, but considerable apprehen-
sion prevailed as to the likelihood of a renewal on
the morning following. The subjoined account of
Tuesday's and Wednesday's proceedings is taken.
from the Nenagh Ouardian, of Wednesday :
" Yesterday morning the Militia stopped the Limerick
coach, and searched it, imagining it might be conveying
away ammunition, but, not discovering any, they
allowed it to proceed on its journey. We learn that
they have been running bullets the greater part of the
day. They carry their arms with them through the
streets, and fire them at pleasure. At hag-past one
o'clock all the men from Pound-street passed up to the
Summerhill barracks, armed.. - Lord Dulaney, Mr. IL
Gas,n, and some ether magistrates and gentlemen f-. -
lowed them, and endeavoured to pacify them. They suc-
ceetied so far as to prevail on the men to unfix their
bayonets. The Militia. igtiiillyamt Pireded theatQwoi-Rv777:
headed by their band, diicbarging an indiscriminate and _ . •eee
irregular fire into the air. The shops were all closed,
bu-ire s was su=pended, and the town had all the ap-
marance of a besieged place.
At about 4 o'clock the military, consisting of 1,000
soldiers of the 13th, 41st, 47th, and 55th depots, under
the command of Lieut.-Col. Hart, entered Barrack-street
from Templeinore, and were halted opposite the church. -
Here they received instructions to fix bayonets and load
with ball cartridge, to march on the barrack of Nenagh,
and take possession of it. They then proceeded,
headed by Mr. John Flemin resident magistrate, to
Sumner-hill Barrack. e ,ch man as cool as if be were
g iing to a review. On reaching the barrack-gate the
Co'onel demanded admi•tance. There was ro reply—it
wai a moment t,f .head su-pen:e ! He placed his hand
on the gate and it opened to his touch. He advanced,
followed by his men, who opened into a single file and
surrour del the barrack-walls. Fortunately, not a shot
was fired at the military. There was here, however,
only a small portion of the Militia, from whom Lieut.-
Col. Maude and the oth r Tipperary officers, ably se-
conded by Lord E:money, succeeded, after some
difficulty, in gettin = quiet possession of their arms.
" While the disarming was going on a considerable
number of the Militia from the Pound-street Barracks
were prowling outside about the gate with their arms
loaded. Teey made several attempts to fire in at the
Line, and unfortunately succeeded in shooting two sol-
diers belonging to the 47th and 41-t through th keyhole
of the gate. Ooe of the men was mortally wounded,
aid he died shortly after. The other man's wounds are
nee. of a very serious natur
in officer's party was then sent out to clear the
streets' of the Militia. On arriving near the Market-cross
they w ere fired at by some of the latter, who had
doncealect' Aemselves behind the corners of the streets.
The officer got his men into skirmishing order and suc-
ceedel in di ,:odgiee• the Militia from their position, and
drove them into Pound-street Barracks. Having ef-
fected their oblE'et,the party returned. without any
casualty, fortun, etely, occurring.
"shortly after s o'clock 200 men of the 21st arrived
from Parsonstown. Having joined the Templemore
troops, the entire ho dy under the command of Major-
General Cbatterton, K.ii., who, accompanied by his
Aide-de-camp, Meier 'b ester, and Colonel Maier, De-
puty-Assistant-Adjutan t-General, had just arrive d from •
Limerick, proceeded to take possession of the round-
street-Barracks, where Hit r Militia seemed resolved to
make a determined stand a ad fight it out with the rap-
tors. Before the soldiers Proceeded far down Castie-
street they were received vitt: a tremendous volley
from a body of Militia, N vho bad acain stationed
themselves at the market-c ross. The front rank
of the Line returned the .fire, which was re-
sponded to, by another discharge from the Militt s.
A continuous roll of musketry leas then kept up fix'
about five minutes, and the re suit must have- been
awful, only that the Line,. not visiting to take away
life there being many persons in the streets at the Mot.,
fired into the air. While this was g flog on in the street
a eta ng party of the military were despatched up by
the new Court-house. Here they fell in with a body of
the Militia, who took to the fields, and .threw themselves
into skirmishing order, displaying the utmost coolness
and determination—it may be added braverje—in their
encounter with the Line. They were, however, soon
overcome, and had to beat a hasty retreat. The mili-
tary then proceeded round by Cudville to the Pound-
street Barracks, where they met the street party, who
had compelled the Militia at the market-cross, after
some sharp firing, to retire also.. After a feeble resist-
ance, their ammunition having run out, the latter were
compelled to submit, and, having given up their arms,
they were made prisoners, and marched up to the mili-
tary prison, where they were lodged for the night. Thus
ended one of the most fearful days ever spent in Nenagh.
But we regret to say that this lasteeegageinent was at-
tended with serious loss of life and personal injury.
Three of the soldiers were wounded ; one of them had his •
thighbone broken ; a pensioner, named Gibbons, resid-
ing in Pound-street, was shot dead while looking out of
his house ; and two children were more or less injured.
"The cause of this outrageous conduct is quite simple.
On the embodiment of the Irish militia the soldiers were
promised a certain bounty, but now, when Government
are in no further want of them, they violate that sti-
pulation.

Mr. Dunn then recalled Inspector Bray, upon whom
he inflicted a similar tirade, making the inspector repeat
the substance of a variety of conversations in which be
(Dunn) bad made the same statements as proved by the
other witnesses. Defendant also put it to the witness
whether he lad not, upon inquiry, ascertained his state-
ments to be true ?
Mr. Bray bad found that some of them were true. For

instance, it wait true that he (Dunn) called at the Palace
and saw Sarah, but it was not true that the Princess was
on the stairs, &e.

The defendant, in a long and rambling harangue, main-
tained stoutly that the whole of his assertions were true,
and that he could prove them. He demanded that all
the persons he bad mentioned should be called to say
whether the facts were as he stated them. He asserted
that he had seen the Earl of Afttnvtery4so had_assured
him that the lady was in love with hini, tifid required his
worship to adjoprn the case for the purpose of examining
that and other witnesses.

Mr. Henry—There can be no doubt about the falsity
of all the allegations and at-dements proved to have been
made by you. The possible excuse for you is that which
Dr. Sutherland gives--that you area person of unsound
mind, and labouring under delusions. If this were not
so I should make some very strong observations on your
infamous conduct ; but it is my clear conviction that you
are not a person of sound mind, and therefore I shall
order you to be placed under restraint.
Defendant—l appeal to the gentlemen of the press to
do me justice, which you have noit done.
The defendant was then removed, and the fqrmal order
made out.

The proceedings terminated considerably after the
usual hour for the adjournment of th,4 court.

An experimental rifle mortar has been lately cast in
Wr olwieh Arsenal, and is about to be provided with its
bed, which is partially complete. The mortar is shortly to
be forwarded to Shoeburyness to undergo a series of
severe tests, the piece having been cast for experiment
only, and is composed of pure gun metal. The crown is
peculiarly shaped in a semicircular fashion, and the two
Riles are impaorted wi h strong iron side straps, which it
is expected will prevent the gun from shifting from th••
basin übder the force of any amount of concussion
during the experiments which it is intended to put the
piece through. The bore is alO inch, and will be fired
during the first trials with a charge of 30 pounds of
powder, one wad, and a solid shot weighing upwards of

THIIRSDAY.-THE CIIP DAY.

"Cup days" at all meetings possess peculiar attrac-
tions for pleasure folk, independent of the quantity and
character of the sport. No exception was formed to
this rule at Liverpool, and although the card contained
no item of engrossing interest—the principal eventibeing
a comparative failure—yet the attendance of general
company was very lame. The stands were pretty well
filled, and in the private stand was the Earl of Derby
and his distinguished guests, who are sojourning for the
week at Knowsley.
The sunny weather heightened the enjoyment of the
spectators. The only drawback from the pleasant cha-
racter of the proceedings was occasioned by the itinerant
preachers, who took up their stations at frequent inter-
vals in the vicinity of the course, and pursued their call-
ing with wonderful energy. Their seeming earnestness,
however, produced no effect upon the throngs of holiday
folk, and its only tendency appeared to be to create a
breach of the peace. Opposite the railway station at
Aintree were placarded, in large letters, the words
" Remember poor Palmer," and underneath it were seve-
ral Scriptural quotations. These offensive displays,
however, only excited coarse and ribald jests from the
" roughs," and created disgust and indignation amongst
all respectable people.
The "Cup " brought out only eight starters. Types,
who bad for many weeks been the leading favourite,
maintained her position in the market to the close. The
race was remarkable only for her utter defeat. This
event concluded, the day's sport also terminated ; for
the two subsequent stakes only attracted four horses to
the post. Altogether, a more uninteresting Cup Day
was never witnessed at Aintree. The " officials" got
through their business with their usual promptitude.
The course, however, was most inefficiently kept, people
being allowed to crowd on to it at the stable turn and
below the distance, to the danger of life and limb. The
races were decided as under :
A Handicap Sweepstakes of 5 sovs each, with 30 added.

" INQUEST ON THE BODIES.
" On Wednesday Mr. T. T. Abbott proceeded to the
military barrack for the purpose of holding an inquest
on the bodies of the persons shot dead the previous
evening. The following are their names :—Denis Toohey
and Patrick Tracey, Tipperary Militia ; Pat. Curley,
41st Regiment, and Peter Gibbons, Pound-street, pen-
sioner. Curley, the soldier of the 41st, had only re-
turned from the seat of war, having been at the battles
of Alma, Inkerman, and Balaklava. He was a fine-
looking young fellow, about 28 years of age, and has
left a widow and three young children. The two militia-
men were each about 25 years old, and not married.
" A corporal of the 41st identified the body of Curley.
"Lord Dunalley was the first witness examined by
the Coroner—l was in the military barracks here yeti-
terday. I attended as a magistrate in consequence of et
mutiny among the Tipperary Regiment of Militia, and
offered my assistance in restoring order among them.
With regard to the death of the soldier Curley, I saw the
occurrence take place. I saw a man dressed in red come
up to the small door of the barrack entrance and dis-
charge his firelock ; the man that fired was within a few
yards of the deceased at the time. The deceased was
only in the act of entering the gate when he was shot.
The man then fell. The soldiers closed round him, and
the perpetrator disappeared. That is all I know about
the matter. Who the person was that fired the shot I
cannot say.
"Henry Fraser, examined—l live in Nenagh. I was
standing N outside the wicket-gate yesterday and saw a
Militiaman fire a shot in through it. When the shot
was fired I heard that a soldier was killed. The man
who fired ran away. I also ran away. I should not
know the man who fired the shot. When it was said
the man was shot the Militiamen and people ran away.
"After some further evidence,
"Toe jury returned a verdict 'That the deceased men
came by their deaths in consequence of gunshot wounds
inflicted by some person or persons unknown ; and that
the death of the soldier Curley, of the 41st Regiment,
was caused by a soldier of the dorth Tipperary Militia.' n

at the post.

DUBLIN, THURSDAY EVENING.
A second edition of the Limerick Reporter, dated
last night, contains the following particulars :
" NENAGH, WEDNESDAY.
"The town is quiet to-day. It is said that the
Militia who were taken with arms in their hands
last night will be tried by the civil power. A great
many deserted last night, taking their arms and
appointments with them. The firing at 9 o'clock
last night in Pound-street was terrific. It was
there all the damage was done. The number of
Militia wounded in barracks is six, and it is sup-
posed many of those who went away are wounded.
Eight or ten soldiers of the Line are wounded.
In the case of Peter Gibbons, who was shot by one
of the 55th Regiment, the jury returned the fol-
lowing verdict Deceased came to his death by
the effects of a gunshot wound inflicted by a sol-
dier of the 55th Regiment; that such firing was
unjustifiable ; and that the troops might have used
more discretion in firing into the house of a respect-
able man, having fired ten rounds into ,deceasects
house.'"
The Europa, from Sydney, and the Potentate, from
Launceston, have arrived ; but their amounts of gold,
any, remain to be ascertained.
