CousTy or Limeilicic.—The intelligence re-
ceived this day from the county of Limerick ac-
fords'another proof of the desperatelotaivation,
of the peasantry, who persevere in their horrible
conspiracy, whatever the ultimate object of 010
conspiracy may be, to obtain arms and ammuni-
tion. The Limerick Chronicle, of last Wednes-
day, gives an account of several houses
had been successfully attacked by the banditti,
in addition to the instances of a similar kind
which were mentioned in The Correspondent of
yesterday. But the wretches do not now cos-
fine their depredations to farm-houses, or to
the seats of Gentlemen of fortune, which
may be situate in remote districts, or unfre-
quented places; but to such a pitch of audacity
have they arrived, that they even assembled
under the very walls of the Artillery Barrack:',
on last Saturday night, and carried away abort
half a hundred weight of lead from the roof of
the building. Such an occurrence proves, first,
how accurately they have planned the scheme/
and, secondly, how numerous the banditti rou't
have been, when they were not afraid of the.
consequences of a discovery, if the sentinel/
should have perceived them during the perpetro-
lion of the act. The object for which so audaciou3
an attack had been made is evident, and the Trio 4
dreadful consequences ought to be anticipated,lf
implicit reliance were not placed on the wl3'
dom and the firmness of the Government, that
is solicitous to attain all the ends of justice,
without violating the spirit of the Constituti°o'
and that has concentrated in the country a lar,(i?
portion of the public force, for the protection of
peaceable and loyal subjects. The laws of the
land are always slow in their operation to redros
evils like those which now distress that county;
hut, in the end,, they never fail to bring the in'
fatuated disturbers of the peace to exemplary'
punishment. All the circumstances, which are
disclosed to the readers of the accounts in trie
provincial Newspapers, are known to the (=o"
vernrnent ; but Government has also other
information, by which its measures most be it'',
tiuenced. The time will come when the motivt's
and the conduct of the Government on 01'
occasion will be completely developed. But:
whenever the proper moment may arrive for sat!'
a disclosure, the character of the Irish Aden',
nistration will be found to have been consooat'L
to the pure spirit of British liberty, and to bay('
been regulated by the benign precepts of lte'
ligion, tempering justice with mercy, and ender''
vouring to reclaim the vicious by its lenity, rather
than by the interposition of its power.

We understand that important disclosures hay'
been made to some of the Magistrates in th'
Barony of Kihnaine, which aro likely to expo"
the whole conspiracy, and of course to frustrat'
the designs of the disaffected in that quarter'
Fourteen men, we learn, have been arrested LlP°Li'l
private information, and orders have been receiYe
to provide for their accommodation in the co'intl
gaol, where they are shortly expected.—(.lPS)

We find, upon inquiry, that the statement
published on -Monday, upon the authority of ti'°
Limerick Chronicle, of the death of Glees°lli
who was shot by the Police, in the aff:ir
Six-mile Bridge, is incorrect ; the unfo:lunate
young man still lives, though severely wounded,
a ball having passed through under his should.-4.
lie has sent word to Robert Keane, Esq. Mit'

gave himself up. lie was carried by his cou)P',

distance, until the pursuit being too close, tht'Y,
were obliged to abandon him, when they threl
him inside a wall, where lie remained LOU,

hours together in any one house.--(G/are Juurfial')
