and exemplary rigour affortis the ouly means of,
adequate relief.---We :.sthhjoin article from
The Dublin Patriot, .of saturaay last," which
shews what measures are in cmitemplation by the
Irish Governmerlt, and gives the verdict of the
Jury on the hOrrible massacre of Mr. SHEA, his
family and fr‘lends

[From the Dublin Patriot" of Saturday.]
His Majesty's Privy Council will assemble this day at Dub-
lin Castle, at two o'clock. The deliberation of the Council will,
of bourse, relate to the late atrocious burning in the county of
Tipperary. A. proclamation will immediateiy be issued, offer-
ing large rewards for the apprehension of the savage perpetra-
tors; and the pardon usually extentled in such cases will be
offered to those persons, collaterally connected with the crime,
who may give information against their more diabOlical associ-
ates. We trust that the concurrent measures about to be taken
by Government will soon bring the
_monsters to the tribunal of
stern and angry justice.
The numbur ,of sufferers amounted, we believe, as at first
stated, to seventeen. Three of thorn were female infants two
were childrmol fuller years. A lovely and very young woman,;,
respectably connected, and who was on a visit to the family,
made the sixth sufferer. Shea and his wife,. three. servant
Women, and five labouring men, swell the group of victims to
sixteen. Of one other we have yet to speak. The seventeenth.
we write it with horror, was an infant unborn ! It dropped from,
the womb of its parent, when her Mangled carcass was lifted
from the burning pile. which had nearly consumed it.
Since the above was written, we have been favoured with a
perusal of the Coroner's account, transmitted .to Government
this morning. The inquest was held on Wednesday, the 21st
instant: the following were the jurors :
John &Hit°, Matthew Barron, Basil Bryan, Richaid Chad-
wick, John Cooke, Edmund Tobin, Thomas Ilefferman, Adam
bciglati.Pierce Butler, R. C. Jackson, James Butler, K.

•Pn7l NiChcilai Shea, jun., Margaret Shea, Michael Butler, P.

After the examination of the witnesses, the Jury returned
tee fallowing verdict :
v`` Burnt to death, by the wilful setting on fire of the house of
o,iind Shea, on themight between the 19th: and 20th of No.
eincer instant. " JOHN THOMPSON, Coroner."

Coax, Nov. 22.—(Post-Officc Changes.)—By
the very inconvenient changes in the mails we
frequently have the English letters for this city
lyingf
or twenty-one hours in the Dublin Office.
-",° blame, however, is attachable' to the officers or in who .are always on the alert to
accommodate .the, public, as much as possible ;
hilt the delay and inconvenience to the Cork
Merchants is iticaleulable, especially at this sea-
s", when they have such frequent and necessary
communication with the proprietors of West
India Estates, resident in London, for their out-
ward bound ship's.

IiOL; Esi.AND.—This island is on the coast of
Northumberland, thong!' within the jurisdiction
of the County i-Palatine of Durham. It was
called by t, the Ancient!
Britons INIS MEDICANTE,
but its more familiar appellation was that of
143-otsrArtN.l.:,.- until the sanctity of its inhabi-
tants procureditthe name that it new-possesses. Its
circumference is about eight miles. The shore is
bexcellent for bathing, and the situation being-
oth healthy and romantic, it.is surprising that it
"as been so little resorted to. The prospect fromtilis island is beautiful. Worthward the ancient
tl"in of Berwick arrests the eye, over an arm of
sea about seven miles in
.breadth ; and at
ilearly the same.distance on the south, Bambo-
fough Castle dppears elevated On a bold pronion-
torw.
On the :title hand there is a Niew.of the
cP;tl; majestic
calm weather, is
.resplen
of --aJestic, and scattered over with vessels
ch all
burthens. On the other hand a narrow
whaPer appears, about two miles in width,. by
4h di the land is insulated, while • the.distant
re exhibits a. beautiful hanging landscape of
''Ativated country, graced with a multitude of
cottages, villages, and woodlands.—HENßY aot-
rnlNG‘v°6ll-Striey, Esq; of Swatisfield,. has beena "3' years the proprietor of this delightful spot,
vod he has recently improved the appearance of the
r venerable remains of its celebrated Abbey, by the,
trioval of the delapidated parts of the ruin from
he exterior
the and. interior of the building, so that
a,whole pile of these magnificent specimens of
vottent architecture will be seen to grea.ter,ad,
hantage, and with a higher gratification, than
s ereton3re.—Mr. SELitY is indefatigable in per-
:nail,' attending to the progress of these im-
provements, and we have no doubt but that Holy
Island will become one of the most distinguished
athhtg Resorts in the North of England. The
eiiiantiquary and the !Over of the picturesque will
4,! delighted with- its objects and its views. To
dtempt any, delineation, of the. Abbey and the
11, is is not necessary :—the admirers of Sir.
ScOT't will recollect his bold and ani-'
o..a,ted desoiption of both, and our Readers have
IcIY. to :refer to that admirable work " The
Order Antiquities," where they will find a full
4acriptien of this Island, and of all the other
Ith°'el'oils and interesting objects of antiquity-
