of diseases, nor so many invalids, as might have been expected.
The leading ailment has been derangement of the digestiv!

One of those scenes of bloodshed which have their
orightin the syStein of illicit distillation, took place on Saturday
hes in the county of Waterford. On Friday evening last, Robt.
Townahend, Esq. Supervisor of Excise, who had only returned
to Fermoy, after a tour of forty miles in hi* district, received in-
formation of a private distillery at full work. Being fatigued, he
iminediately sent fur Air. William Fitanzaurice Officer of Excise,
who is in charge of Fertzmy division, and delegated his writ of
,s„iognee to him to undertake the duty. Accordingly, he pro-
ceeded from that town, accompanied by Lieut. 13aile, twelve melt
of the 12th Regiment, and a constable, and having arrived at the
place; about three o'clock in the morning, they seized the still,
he and worm, at work, 44)0 gallons of pot-
.ale, and a number'
headcasks ; when passing through the village of Ilaluff
they were attacked by a mob of men
and wom lyd
en, con-
,
'listing of several hundred,, who succeeded in rescuing the
seizure, after wounding several of the party with stones.
During this attack, Mr. Fitzmattrice and Lieut. Bailey evinced
the greatest coolness, and the men the utmost steadiness, until they
saw their officer repeatedly knocked down, when at last, in defence
of their lives, they were obliged to fire on the mob.' Notwith—
standing the number of killed and wounded, the country people
followed up the attack with such determination, that the party had
to retreat ; and only for a small bridge over the Blackwater, near
Uallyduft; which enabled them to escape, not one,of them
would
have returned alive. Eleven out of the 12 soldiers are wotinded.—:.
