IRELAND.
(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
DUBLIN, MONDAY EVENING. —ln the Court of
Queen's Bench this day the case of the proprietor of
the World newspaper versus Sir William Somerville
was brought before their Lordships. Mr. John Per•
rin was counsel for the defendant.

Sir William Somerville, the Chief Secretary of
Ireland, moved that the bill of particulars furnished
in this case by the plaintiff, Mr. James Birch, the
proprietor of the World newspaper, be amended, by
setting out a full and accurate statement, which
would enable the defendant to know for what the
action was brought. Sir W. Somerville had made
an affidavit, in which he stated that the bill of parti-
culars furnished with the declaration did not afford
him the necessary information to prepare his defence,
and that it was necessary that he should have it for
that purpose.

Messrs. Whiteside, Q.C., and M`Donagb, Q,C..
opposed the motion, on grounds of irregularity and
upon the merits. The plaintiff had made affidavit,
in which he stated that the action was one for work
and labour, and was brought to recover the sum of
6,300/. from the defendant for services rendered to
him as chief secretary, 6,000/. for writing and pub-
lishing articles in support of the Government for two
years and a half, and 3001. for newspapers forwarded
to various parties by the defendant's direction during
that period. The affidavit of Mr. Birch further stated
that Sir W. Somerville well knew what the nature of
the action was, and counsel contended that, under the
new rules, it was incumbent on the defendant to
have sworn that he did not know the nature of the
demands to entitle him to an amended bill of particu-
lars. It was also relied on that the copy of the affi-
davit of the defendant furnished to the plaintiff was
not in compliance with the Act of Parliament, as it
did not appear by the jurat to have been sworn.
Mr. Perrin having shortly replied, the Chief
Justice said the motion should be refused upon the
technical points raised against it, but they would not
give costs, as it was evident that the bill of particu-
lars furnished was an illusory document calculated to
mislead—it was, in fact, a misnomer to call it a bill
of particulars.
A second edition of the Lcinster Express of this
morning contains the following particulars of another
murder in the Queen's County. Between six and
seven o'clock on Saturday evening Edward Horan, a
stonemason and farmer, accompanied by a number of
men, entered the baron of John Flynn, of Brittas, near
Mountmellick, and commenced levelling an outhouse
to which he had set up an imaginary claim, though
it is two years since he had been dispossessed of it.
Flynn came out to resist the work of demolition,
when the party tuned on him in a ferocious manner,
and beat him with sticks and pitchforks to such a
degree as to leave him unable to stand. Flynn's wife
was also beaten severely, and received two stabs of
a pitchfork. The party having levelled the out-house
left the scene of outrage. Flynn lingered in great
agony until twelve o'clock yesterday, when he died.

been without a nurse and medical attendant. About eight

minutes, and on her return tumid the door 1, eked. From
