GOD SAVE THE KING.

DISORDERS AMONG THE PEASANTRY OF MAYO.
We copy the following paragraph from the
i17a310 Constitution :—" We are concerned to hear
that the spirit of infatuation, which has seized
upon the minds of the people in other coun-
ties, appears to have taken possession of some
amongst ourselves. We have authority, which
we cannot question, for stating, thatmillegal
oaths have been administered to a lamentable
extent in this county, and that marauding parties
have been recently in pursuit of fire-arms, and
in some cases have succeeded in their ob-
ject, not many miles from this town. We do not
make this statement for the purpose of creating
alarm, but rather in order, to put people upon
their guard, and that timely means may be
taken to check the evil. We feel more of re-
gret than fear upon the occasion. We know that
the delusion must vanish, but we shudder to con-
template the miseries it may entail upon its votaries.
A Meeting of the Magistrates of this county, is
called for Saturday next. Probably, their deli-
berations may refer to the subject of this short
article."

The following disgraceful fact occurred a few
nights ago in the county of Kildare :—A tenant of
Col. Bruen, from whom he had received no rent for
two years (tolerable indulgence), and from whom
his agent could not get any rent, was distrained,
and a keeper left to watch the property ; on the
succeeding night a party of men came to the pre-
mises, and havied lied the bailiff and the farmer,
back to back, swept away the entire property,
which was under seizure, on curs which they had
ready for the purpose! Of this part of the out-
rage the farmer pretended total ignorance !

DUEL.--It is with sincere regret we have to
state that a duel was this morning fought near
Belview, in this county, between PATRICK Do-
NELAN, Esq. of Ballyeighter, and EDWARD CAL..
LANAN, of Eyrecourt, Esq. when, on the first dis-
charge of pistols, Mr. DONELAN'S ball entered the
heart of his adversary, who, we need scarcely
add, expired on the ~pot.—(Galzony Chronicle.)

EXORMOUS CARROT.-Yesterday, nr.GEORGE
BOOTH, gardener, Mansfield, drew from his gar-
den a carrot of the following extraordinary
weight and dimensions. Weight six pounds, and
within four inches of the top (that not being the
extremity of the girth) it measured 16 inches!!

It consists of six separate branches, the centre
one in particular being considerably larger than
any carrot almost ever seen. ' To-day it was ex-
hibited at Mansfield market for public inspection,
and allowed, by all who saw it,' to be the largest
they eve witnessed.—(Doncasier` Gazette, Oc-
tober 19)

Tuesday.
Letters from Saragossa of the 3d announce,
that the yellow fever has disappeared from Fraga,
where only one person had been attached by the
disorder, which he had caught at Mequineuza.
The latter town is the only place in Arragon
which is infected, and a cordon has been formed
around it.
Advices from Perpignan of the 6th state, that
the contagion continues its ravages at Barcelona.
The contagion has not manifested itself in any
other towns of Catalonia.
We read in The Journal de LNon of the 13th
October, that letters received, from Marseilles
the day before mention the appearance of the
yellow fever at Leghorn. This news wants con..
firmation.
MARSEILLES, OCT. 10.-Our intelligence re-
specting the state of our lazaretto and quarantine
establishments is most satisfactory. We have
now only one convalescent, and no sick in the
lazaretto. The town is very healthy.
VIENNA, OCT. 6.—[Extract of a Private Let-
ter.]—We have received news from Semlin,
which state that one of the old Servian Chiefs,
known by the share which he took in the insur-
rection of Czerni Georges, is now commanding
a corps of the Insurgents in Moldavia, and has
sent several agents into Servia, to induce the
heads of the districts to rise in favour of the
Greeks. This chief is the celebrated General
Miloradowisch, who was often mentioned in the
recital of the events which took place last sum-
mer in 'Walachia and Moldavia. He has been
proscribed some time by the Turks,who have set
a price on his head. It seems he possesses con-
siderable influence over his countrymen, but not
sufficient to engage the Servian authorities in
measures which may be 'attended with the most
disastrous consequences to them. It is said a
misunderstanding has taken place between the
Pachas of Belgrade and Widdin, which has been
referred to the Grand Signior, whose decision is
daily expected. It is probable that one of
them will incur the displeasure of the Sultan.
It is strongly: reported that a corps of Alba.
nians has gained a victory over the Turkish troops
under Courscheld Pacha.
FRANKFORT, OCT. 11.-(8.9 Ktpress.)—All
Austrian ship which, left Zea on the Ist Septem-
ber,. and which lately arrived at Trieste, brings

word that the different divisions of the Greek
Fleet have returned to the ports of Itydria, Ip-
sara, and Spezia, tc) refit and obtain supplivs of
ammunition and provisions.
Letters from Calamatta, in the Morea, confirm
the news that the fortress of Monembasia (Napoli)
had capitulated to the Greeks. One hundred and
twenty pieces of artillery, ten thousand muskets,
and a considerable quantity of ammunition and
stores fell into their hands.
A letter from Posen announces the arrival of

the Emperor Alexander at Witepsk. His Ma-
jest), will proceed immediately to the army of
the west.
IIAGuz, OcT. 15.—His Majesty opened to-day
the Session of the. States General with a speech,

in Which he gave a most satisfactory account of
the present state of the kingdom. His Majesty
states, that he continues to receive the most un-
equivocal testimonies of friendship from. other
Powers ; and that notwithstanding the events in
the Levant, there are still well-founded hopes
that peace will be,maintained. The fears of an
unfortunate harvest are vanished. Commerce
and navigation have not been neglected ; and
there is reason to hope that they,will be.come more
animated. The manufactures have not prospered
as Might' have been wished, but some of the most
important have considerably improved of late,
and there is 'little reason to complain of want of
work. His. Majesty speaks with satisfaction. of
the diffusion of knowledge among ..the people,
and of the improvement Also of the fine arts.—
The internal administration of the kingdom is:
improving; the communcations are facilitated by,
new roads; important works have been exeCuted.
to prevent the inundations. of the Rhine,. and'
others are contemplation ; a great reform is
intended in the prisons ; the state of the 'finances
is promising,and the new projects of laws on that
subject are nearly ready.
FROM THE FRONTIERS OF MOLDAVIA, SEPT. 20.
—The cause of the Greeks in Moldavia seems
for the present to be nearly desperate : 600
Turks having advanced on the 17th towards'the

mountains, 300 Hetarists, with their chief leadersi
Jordaki. and Farmaki, threw themselves into the
covent of Sika, situated to the N.W. of Ayanez,
at the foot of the mountains, which is provided
with ammunition and provisions for some months.
The rest of the Hetarists dispersed among the
mountains ; 130 of them are to-day before the
Austrian quaLrantine office at Bujascheskie„ and
desire to be admitted into the Bukowina, which
will not be granted as long as they are armed.—
The convent of "Sika has been formally besieged
by the Turks since the evening of the 17th, but
as they have only light artillery, and the walls
are very strong, they have hitherto done nothing
and have lost many men by the skill of the
marksmen of the Hetarists. In a sally which
this handful of men made, they took from the
Turks two bad cannon. The Turks amuse them-
selves from time to time with attempting to storm
the place, in which they get only broken heads;
according to the assurance of some Caloyers
(Greek monks), who have fled hither, they have
already lost above 1,000 men. The night before
last we clearly saw. a large fire near Sika; it was
