were killed. Bat the major part of the Europeans, I
to the number of 55, inclusive of the ladies and I
children, got possession of the fort, and for several
days kept good theirposition—the ladies assisting
the gentlemen in cooking for them, sending them
refreshments, casting bullets, &c. Though begin-
ning to be much straitenened for want of provisions,
they still held out, until at last the mutineer; as-
sisted with guns and elephants by th 3 Rani or
Quern, succeeded in effecting an entrance at one of
the gates. Then did the proverbial faithlessness
of Asiatics receive a fresh illustration. The gentle-
men—some of whom were famous marksmen, one
of them having killed no less than 25 of the rebels
with his own hand—were solemnly promised that
if they laid down their arms, and gave themselves
up quietly, the lives of all would be spared. Un-
fortunately for themselves, their wives, and little
ones, they were induced to listen to these promises,
and come out. No sooner had they done so than
they were tied in a long line between some trees,
and had their heads struck off ! Then followed
scenes of dishonour and torture too hideous to be
narrated. These murderous savages, like the tigers
which inhabit their jungles, seemingly delighting
to play with their victims before despatching them.

DUBLIN, TUESDAY MORNING.
THE BELFAST RIOTS.

The Belfast papers of last night bring full ac-
counts of the savageries which disturbed the town
on Sunday. The Mercury's report of the proceed-
ings is to the following effect :
" Yesterday morning, at an early hour, the fol-
lowing placard was extensively posted in the prin-
cipal thoroughfares arid conspicuous places in the
town :

" Down with open-air preaching ! Down with fana-
tical Drew, the squinting divine; the enemy of tranquil-
lity and peace 1 Gather to the Custom-house on Sun-
day, the 6th inst., at 3 o'clock, and give the Orange
bigot such a check that he *ill not attempt open-air
preaching again. Catholics ofPlfast, Down, and Antrim,
we see by the public placards that our religion is again
to be assailed, our public walks obstructed by that low
and ruffianly fanaticism which has been lately got up by
our evangelical neighbours for the purpose of giving
annoyance to their Catholic neighbours. It is now quite
manifest to all rational minds that this outrage will be
persevered in for the sole purpose of creating a quarrel,
and perhaps for the purpose of shedding Catholic blood.
Since they have got our worthy* member, Mr. Cairns,
installed with the high honour of the ranter's badge, we
therefore call upon all our Catholic neighbours and
brethren to come and defend their rights as loyal sub-
jects and peaceable citizens ; and we have not the slight-
est doubt bat we shall compel these disturbers of the
public peace to respect the feelings of those who differ
from them in religion—who, while' they are never the
aggressors, know how to defend themselves when at-
tacked.'

" There`was no printer's name to this placard,
which was moat conspicuous on its. walls from the
size of its typo and the colour of the paper on which
it was'printed. •
"It was stated frequently during the day that
the priests Of the Roman -Catholic Church had an-
nounced from their altars their wish that all their
congregations should keep within doors from 3 till
5 o'clock p.m., yesterday, but the sequel shows
that these orders were not well obeyed. From
2 o'clock in the afternoon crowds of men were seen
coming towards the Custom-house from the.centre
of the town, and. lest they might be suspected of
concert in the matter, they filed off in different
directions around the structure in question, and
met each other again on the quay. This body of
men, whoever they were, began to mix7eip with
another party, who were evidently residents in the
vicinity of the dock, and although there did not
seem to be a harmony of feeling among them no
breach of the peace occurred. -
" For a time the great object of attraction was
the Custom-house steps, on which about 100 young
men had taken their stand ; but shortly after 3
o'clock, p.m. a body of young fellows, number-
ing about 30, marched among the masses in front
'of the Custom-house, and, passing on, mixed in the
crowd further down on the quays, and which ulti-
mately concentrated before the. Harbour-office
Queen's-quay. •
" The crowd increased in that direction, and
about half-past 3 it amounted to several thousands.
The borough constables were marched in a body
to this point, and took up a position in front of the
Duncrue Saltworks-office. From this time up till
4 o'clock the crowd increased until the whole space
from the shed at Clarendon-dock to Victoria-street
was covered with human beings. The great ma-
jority were respectable, and many women were
present.
"At 4 o'clock exactly _the Rev. Hugh Hanna,
carrying an umbrella, walked down Porporition-
street and into Queen-square, and, mixing among
the crowd, gained the platform erected for his ac-
commodation at the side of the Harbour-office rails,
without attracting attention. Once there he
speedily mounted the rostrum, and began
to address his auditors but was stopped
by Mr. • J. -Clark, J.P., chairman of the
Harbour Commissioners, who, as we are informed,
appealed to his good sense whether he considered
it prudent to proceed. Mr. Hanna inquired if he
prohibited him, adding at the same time that he
had a constitutional right to preach, which right he
meant to exercise. Mr. Clarke said he did not
prohibit him ; but; while admitting the right, said
it might be expedient not to persist at
.present.
Mr. William Coates, J.P. (it has been also stated),
then remarked that he would hold Mr. Hanna re-
sponsible for any consequence which might ensue,
in reply to which that gentleman said he was de-,
termined to vindicate the right of Protestants to
preach the Gospel.
" At the conclusion of this conversation the Rev.
Hugh Hanna commenced the devotional services by
giving out a Psalm, which was sung, and praying.
He then took for his text the words of St. Paul, in
Helesewe, Ist chapter, 3d verse,—' How shall we
escape if we neglect so great salvation 1' The
reverend gentleman proceeded to deliver a tem-
perate evangelical address from those words,
but he was not long so engaged when a whistle
was given in the crowd towards the Claren-
don-dock, and a second in another part of the
crowd, which immediately divided, each party tak-
ing its own side. A volley of stones came from
the party next the dock, accompanied by a cheer,
which was answered, and in less-time than it takes
us to narrate it the conflicting parties were fighting.
Those next the docks gave way, pursued by men
who, it afterwards appeared, were principally ship-
wrights, brandishing wooden bludgeons used in
their trade. The fighting portion of the mob went
up Donegall quay, and in a short time afterwards
about 40 young men and boys ran into the ship-
yards at the quay, from which they speedily re-
turned with a further supply of the weapons already
noticed. In the meantime their opponents ware
reinforced, and came towards the scene of action,
driving the stragglers before them in no very ten-
der mode, when a conflict ensued, which ended
in their retreat in all directions. The treatment
some men then received was dreadful. When
the Catholic mob sought safety in flight, they
were knocked in all direction., and bru-
tally treated. One man especially received
such abuse that, if he survives, it may be said
a man's skull can resist anything. The belligerents
again went up to the quay, but were stopped about
Gamble-street by the onstabulary, under Sub-
Inspector Bindon. The two parties were then"
separated, and woe to the unhappy man, whether
Protestant or Catholic, whose business or pleasure
left him within the power of either mob. Many
innocent persons of both sides, who knew nothing
of the disturbance, have been the sufferers, and it
will be well if loss of life does not result from the
brutality of these miscreants.
" While all this was going forward the rev. gen-
tleman was discoursing to a congregation of some
3,000 or 4,000 people without molestation. At
the conclusion of the service he said that he had
been in communication with several respectable
men of the industrious classes, who were anxious
that the right of their ministers to open air preach-
ing should be vindicated. He had consented
to vindicate that righ t ;and he hoped they
would submit to insult or injury' rather
than retaliate. The authorities were their legal
protectors—the authorities of the town-were quite
adequate to maintain the-peace ;" and ho hoped they
would now let all see that their conduct aceorded
with their profession as Christian men. He would
ask them, therefore, to retire to their own homes
and not to be seen in the streets, lest they might
render a tumult probable. He had maturely con-
sidered the matter, and was prepared to vindicate
their rights. He believed that that day would have
a mighty influence. He had made it manifest that
he wonld unflinchingly maintain their rights ; and
he hoped they would offer no opposition to any one
that would lead to a breach of the peace, but by
their peaceable demeanour disarm all opposition,
and leave to their enemies no opportunity of find-
ing fault. He would maintain their rights, but it
was possible for men, right-thinking men in other
respects, so to act as to make their cause such as
he could not defend, and thus frustrate the objects
he had in view. Mr. Hanna concluded by adveting
all who heard him to go home peaceably—an ad-
vice which was generally taken.
" While this was going forward in one place the
Riot Act had been read elsewhere, and the con-
stabulary, under the supreme command of Mr.
Hunt, resident magistrate, and the military, under
the command of Col. Adair, appe fired upon the
scene, and measures were taken to c!eer the streets.
But, despite their vigilance, fighting was going on
elsewhere, till the rain set in. Heavy and almost
incessant showers drove the ruffians under cover ;
but, as an obnoxious person pas3ed a door or entry
in which they were jp cat al, they rushed out and
pe!ted him more mercilessly than the pitiless storm.
Nine prisoners were taken for that offence. About
seven o'clo* p.m., six men were marched up the
quay handcuffed, and when at the corner. of Vic•
toria-street a• cry of rescue' was raised, but the'
Hussars speedily put an end to the movement. _

" Baffled at the gulp, the mob retifed, and,
when atpon.,gall-place, a young man named Da-
vison was brutally attacked, and beaten from the
corner of Castle-place -to Messrs. Lindsay's ware-
house, in which he sought refuge. Ono fellow held
him by the neck, and beat the poor young man on
the head with a paving steno. A surgeon dressed
his wound:4, but his life is in great danger. At this
place the rioters had the stones arranged in order
for throwing along the side paths, and non-comba-
tants were unsparingly pelted, without respect to
persons. Mobs gathered at the head of Rosemary
street, and in Smithfield, but they were dispersed
by Mr. Lyons, J.P., aided by the police. In Don-
negall-square stones were thrown ; but when this
portion of the rioters gained their hold . of
.the
Pound fresh disturbances occurred, and some per-
sons going to Dr. Drew's church were assailed.
This provoked retaliation, and the Protestants of

D urham-street and Purple-lane joined in the melee.
The women, as usual, were busy breaking bricks
and carrying stones into the streets, which were
speedily used.
" There was a large congregation in Mill-street,
Millfield, and the districts adjoining, and here it
was that the contest of the day was fought. Gen-
tlemen who camein by one of the late trains on the
Holywood line heard the firing, and they judged
that it could not have been the irregular firing of a
mob ; and their judgment was correct, as the result
showed. A gentleman who was proceeding to his
own residence tells us that he raw Mill-street filled
with a ' good many' people, which, in his accepta-
tion, means a large crowd ; that he then saw these
people running into corners and entries, and balls
ploughing the streets, knocking up the mud and
stones. About this tinio—it is not clear whether
it was before or after such ball-firing—our inform-
ant heard and saw people calling to the drivers of
cars who drove by to stop. He heard the people
interrogate those car-drivers ; and, if their answers
were satisfactory, as be supposed they were, they
were allowed to drive on.

"It was impossible, in passing through the dis-
tricts that were enfiladed, to gather anything like
reliable information. Many risks were run, but
the search after truth was especially difficult, and,
if all the stories told were to be stated here their
verification woald be very arduous.

" DURHAM STREET AND SANDY-ROW.

" Respecting this district we take our information
from the beat sources. Between 6 and 7 o'clock the
disturbance in this place reached its height. Mobs
congregated in Barrack-street and Sandy-raw, and
stones were thrown by both, and it is further stated
that shots were fired from both sides. Acrimony,
no doubt, raged high, for the belligerents at both
sides encountered much danger in the effort to
wreak their animosity on their opponents.
• "Owing, unfortunately, to the absence of the
constabulary at the street preaching iu Corporation-
square, there was not a sufficient force to repress
the tumult at its opening. Mobs, always timid,
become wild when license is afforded, and the mob
last night ran wild.
".Mr. Hunt, RM., was standing in readiness
with a body of police at the constabulary station in
Durham-street, when word came that forces were
wanted in Barrack-street. The necessary aid was
promptly on the spot ; but just as they came up an
accident occurred.

" Mr. Stevenson, one of; the oldest and most re-
sp cted magistrates on the local bench, was present,
and into the entry into which the constabulary had
retired the mob flung•a volley of stones, and ono of
the missiles struck Mr. Stevenson, inflicting a cut
over the left eyebrow, which bled rather freely.
" By a fortuitous circumstance there happened to
be actually ;three mounted constables in Belfast.
We believe that this is owing to the happy &dance
that Mr. Williams, the county inspector, has been
nominally removed to Belfast, although on this oc-
casion he was absent on duty.' The efficacy of the
mounted constables was very evident, for they re-
peatedly cleared the streets, better by far than could
be done by firing or by bayonets.
" In the localities just mentioned, and in the lo-
calities adjoining, showers of stones, we have been
told, were thrown. Some of the local force wore
obliged to creep over walls to save their lives. From
tho entry in which Sergeant M'lntyre• and his 12
men were stationed files of three at a time were or-
dered out, with directions to fire at the stone
throwers. Tho act, it was stated, enjoins that, after
the reading of the Riot Act—a preliminary which
had been gone through previously by Mr. W. T. B.
Lyons—the guns or muskets should be fired at and
into, not over or around the rioters.'
" The act was adhered to. The firing was of tho
most regular order, so perfectly so that it was heard
a couple of miles off by the gentlemen travelling
on the -County Down Railway, and nobody knows
the exact number of the sufferers. On inquiry at
the General Hospital last evening, we learned that
several persons were attended to who required
wounds to be dressed.- Some had broken arms and
others had severe lacerations of the head and face.

" George Walker, aged 19, was shot inMill-street.
The ball entered the side of the left jaw, and passed
out at the back of the neck; in its course it passed
close beside the great artery and vein of the neck,
either of which, if wounded, would have caused
instant death. The sufferer remains in a very pre-
c trious condition.

" Capt. W. Verner was cut in the head by a blow
of a stone, received while driving through the dis-
turbed districts, some time after the row on
Donegal quay.
" The following magistrates met' at the police-
office at 3 o'clock, and held a private conference :
Major W. Verner, Capt. T. Verner, Mr. R. Thom-
son, Mr. W. T. B. Lyons, Sir W. G. Johnson, C.
Hunt, R. M., Mr. W. M'Cance, Mr. W. Stevenson,
and Mr. J. -Macnamara. After having arranged on
the measures to be adopted in the case of a disturb-
ance these gentlemen proceeded to the scene of the
open-air preaching, and were preient at the'prin-
cipal scene of the disturbance.

The following persons are in custody :—B.
Gallagher, M ty-btreet, disorderly, and throwing
stones in Albert-square ; J. Mullan, Berry-street,
ditto ; G. Minn, Townsend street, disorderly in
Done4all-quay ; P. M'Alister, Pound-street, do. ;
G. Sharkey, Hamill-street, ditto ; W. Johnston,
Pound-street, do. • Thos. Maguire, Bond-street,
throwing stones in high-B+mA, and disorderly ; J.
M‘Mahon, Lagan-streot, do. ; P. Magee, William-
street, ditto.
".We way mention at the close that after the
reading of the Riot Act by Mr. Lyons, and the
giving of the order to, load, Mr. Biudon, sub-in-
spector, who was in charge, gave the order to load
merely, but nfrained for some minutes from giving
the order to cap.' The people, or the mob,
were cautioned more than On that the order to
load hid been given ; and wo learn from the con-
stables that it was only when these cautious were
disregarded and the stone-throwing became insuf-
given, and the
