The following; article, pointing out the coinci-

ductions and conduct of CARtILE, is noticed in
The Bristol Journal of Saturday last. tt addition
to its religious application at the present moment,

" To all Christian People to whom this indent-
ed Writing shall come, William Canynge, of Bris-
tol, Merchant, and Thomas Rowley, Priest, send
greeting. Whereas certain disputes have arisen
between the. Prior of St. James, and Johtin a
Milve-rton, tite&ard of the Bonnehommes, Con-
ceming the Unity in Trinity, which, after many
vain arguments asserted to invalidate the God-
head of our blessed Redeemer by bins, the
said 'John a Milverton, he bath referred it
to our decision, and the said Prior, con-
scious of the truth, when he maintains that
Christ irGod, had) agreed to the same. As what
is above human ,comprehensioo can neither be
proved nor disproved by human argument, it is in
vain for the wit of man to pretende to unfolde the
dark covering of the Falk of the Tiinky, lest like
those of old be he stricken dead, and his reason
lost by breathing in an element too fine and subtle
for the gross nature. But as the said John con-
tinues to spread about his detestable Heresy of
the Unity alone of God, notwitlistanding Johu
Carpenter, Bishop of Worcester, unwilling any
man should die for an opinion, gave him his Life
and Liberty, forfeit to the Holy Church Thn
we Main Canynge and Thomas Rowley ap-
prove not of invalidating Arguments by violence
and Death, provided a Man enjoys his Opinion
alone ; Yet when he goes about to .persuade
others front the right way, and speaks openly of
the terrestial Being of Christ, a bridle should be
laid on his tongue. Theweak and ignorant catch
at every thing they understand not; and as the
said John as aforesaid (loth still continue to preach
his heretical Notions, We by Power to us assigned
by the said Bishop of Worcester, command him
the said John, on Pain of Imprisonment, not to
tenth or preach in public or private till we give
hint leave so to do. And the said T. Rowley
will on Sunday at St. Mary's Cross in the Glebe
of St. Mary Redclift deliver a discourse on the
Ti inky, so far as it shall tend to confute the
Doctrine of the said John : after the Mattis
Song, and after the Even Song the said John shall
be at Lberty, without fear uf Imprisonment or
other Punishment, to answer, and if he can to
invalidate the Arguments of the said T. Rowley,
a Copy of
.his Discourse to be given to Mr. Ca-
nynge for the inspec•ion of himself, the said T.
Rowley, the Prior and Monks of St. James, and
whom it may concern. Witness our Ecclesiasti-
cal Seals."—(Vide Chatterton's Works, Vol. 3,

ANOTHER ACCOUNI' OF THE I‘JURDER OF THE
REV. MIL MULQUEEN.
On Tuesday night, hT the Re,. 11 r. Mu I.C/IlEst' sr,
Parish Priest of Ballinvatia.Hnjhis county, was
returning home trout Aidpatrick, wlrere he
lie overtook two of Lis narishiw.ers oo.the road;
they were shortly them met by five Men, ail armed,.
bein4,, some of those nightly marandeis;:whoto we
lament to filid so active!? employed in disturbing
the peace of that part of the county. The worthy
Clergyman desired those with hiin to pr-Oeeed;as
he *as diSposed to return amt reascrn these ile:=
hided wretches out. of their illegal pursuits. - Et'
addressed them, enforciog rhose salutaryadmoni.".

which invariably directed his Ptiblia dut37. tie

city, and.pointo out to them the.iniutious-effects-
of what they were doing. , But how did be suc-
ceed ? The pen trembles as we unfidd the seqnel.
One villain, more deliberate than the rest, exa.;
mined and renewed the priming of a double-bar-
relled gun, and fired at him !--the shot was fol-
lowed by a second, and both took effect. Alr.
Mulqueeu, however, did not fall ; possessing a
strong constitution, he was still able to keep the
saddle ; aim!, in attempting to return to those
who rode with him, he exclaimed, that " lie was
murdered l" Teey took his expiring body off
the horse, and., after saying a Few words to them,
he expired.
We understand that an inquest was held on
Tuesday on the body, and a verdict of "
Murder '• found against a-number of persons as
yet unknown. The remains were interred on
Thursday, at Kildimo,attended by a number of te-
•pectable friends, and a great concourse of peo-
ple, all deprecating the barbarity that (mowed so
valuable a lite to an early grave. To prove that
this was not the hasty .or rash occurrence of the
moment, we have it from an authority we be-
lieve, that some time ago.this amiable Clergyman
got several notices to desist from condemning, at
his Altar, the spirit of insubordination he had ob,
served amongst the labouring classes, one of
which was in these words
The Council has, sat, the decree is past ; alter
your conduct, or prepare to die." •
We have heard that the parish of .Ballinvana
has been placed under a solemn interdict by tLe
Vicar, for a period of twelve ineintlis; and that
nothing short-of the active 'co-operation of the
parishioners to bring the murderers to justice,
can relieve them from this melancholy condition.
SMOCKING OUTRAGE.
R-o.t'Ossigns, Nov. I I.—As. one of the 39as
Regiment was passing through Ballymurry,- on
his way to Castlehar, he was attacked by three
ruffians, who knocked [din down, and robbed
him of all the money he had about hint, amount-
ing to a few shillings: Not content with beat-
lug and robbing the unfortunate man, those in-
hum in monsters, actuated by that feeling•of op).
city which at present unfortunately pervades the
lower °ik's of the people in this county, severed
the toes from his right foot with a spade.

SUPPOSED MURDER IN ST. GEORGE'S Fields.-
Between nine and ten o'clock on Tuesday night,
as the pot-boy belonging to the Royal Mortar
public-house, in the Lomfort-road, St. George's
Fields, was out serving his supper-beer, in erf.ss-
ing a piece of waste-ground, (facing the Phi.
lanthropic), and between that and the Borough-
road, he discovered the body of a man lying
ou his face in a stagnant pool of water, close
to the path-side ; the boy immediately informed
the next watchman, who repaired to the spot,
and procured assistance to carry the body to
the Royal Mortar, covered all over with mud
Mr. Cherry, the hildlord, supposing• he might
have fallen in, in a state of drunkenness, and aright
still have life, the body being then warm, -sent
immediately for Dr. Ratty, whO lives opposite,
and who cattle instantly ; on wasliing away the
filth off his face, it was discovered that he had
a dreadful wound on his throat,—it appear-
ed to he the stab of a sharp-pointed. broad bladed
knife in the gullet, which was ripped tip as far as
the point of the chin. From the nature of the
wound it was supposed to be impossible to be in-
flicted by himself, although it did not appear ke
was rubbed, Gs. in silver, and eight pence in half-
pence, bein;: found in his pocket. He appears to
he a countryman about 40 years of age, dressed
in a new smock frock, striped coison shirt, and a
red silk handkerchief tied round his neck ; he had
on a new pair of shoes, yarn stockings, and cor-
duroy breeches; the pond was searched, but no
knife or whet instrumtnt was found. It is re—
polled, that two boys saw a man carry a body ors
his back ectoss the field, and tt.row it info the
water, but the night being dusk he effechid his
escape. The body lay all day yesterday, exposed
to public view', but remains still unowned.

DARING ROBBERY.—StindAy evening the fol.
lowing impudent outrage was colinniifed of Tem-
ple Bar, in the presence of at least 50 persons :
A 0 elderly gentleman stopped at a Ituit stAll, and
purchased some nuts, which he requeved the yen.
der to pour into his coat-po(ket, for which pur.
pose he tinned round his skirt, holding his um.
brella in the other hand. A thief, who was pass-
ing, went up to the elderly gentleman, gently
seized his umbrella, and Inhking a half bow, ran
up Ship-yard with it, leaving the owner so con-
tused that he could only say, " I declare
the man has got my umbrella without letempt-
ing to make the least pursuit, till the fellow bad
gni clear off.
