We have received a letter from a highly re-
spectable Correspondent, residing in the neighbOUrliood of
Clones, detailing an act of savage barbarity which was per
petrated in that neighbourhood on Thursday night. The
following is our Correspondent's account of the transac-
tion I am sorry for the sake of humanity to have to
inform you of a most horrible occurrence which took place,
in this neighbourhoOd on Thursday night. The circum-
stances of the case, as they hilve been, deposed to before ins
are as follow:—On Monday last a person of time name of
BURKE was interred' in the churchyard of Drnmswords,
about four miles frOni Clones. BURKE was au Orange-
man; and his remains were accompanied to the grave by.
tthe members of the lodge to which he belonged. On
;Thursday morning the grave was found open, the coffin
:broken, and the body of unfortunate man suspended
-by the neck from an adjoining tree ; BURKE was a person
'of excellent character, and much liked by his neighbours.
Every exertion has been used to discover the perpetrators
of this horrible outrage, but as yet without avail."--Dublin
:Eveiing Mail.

HOCK [Nu
CI lICUMSTANCE.-41 eircum
stance of a very painful nature, occurred in thih town on
, S
Saturday last. A roan of the name of MIICICLVNA:Y, ad-
vanced in life, a native of Ireland, and who has occasion-
ally driven cattle to Norwich for the last sixteen or eighteen
years, was found dead in the lock-up house of Dumfries,
while the Commissioners of Police were inquiring into his
case, and subscribing money to shelter him from the storm.
About a fortnight ago, Mr. GEMMEL, teacher, found the
deceased standing in Buccleuch-street, unable to walk or
almost to speak, and in one word, on the point of ex-
piring, from the combined effects of hunger and cold.
To the above painful detail, we have only to add, that
the deceased was buried on Saturday, and that kis funeral
procession, formed of police-officers, ragged Irishmen, and
idle boys, was as painful a spectacle as we ever witnested,..-
