ANOTHER BARBAROUS AlvanEn.—By accounts
received in town yesterday, from Rathmolin,
county of Meath, we learn that a horrid murder
was perpetrated in that neighbourhoods on the
night of Tuesday, the 11th instant. The unfor-
tunate .victim is said to have been brother to a
man who gave 'evidence on.the trial of the mur-
derers of Mr. Cruise, whose melancholy fate is in
the recollection of our readers. His name is
William Wiley. It is supposed that he was
way-laid by a party, on his return from the fair,
on that day, and murdered in a small field near
the road, leading from Longwood to Rathmolin.
The head was nearly severed from the body, ap-
parently by a sharp instrument. No Inquest
had been held when our informant left the place ;
but there are,certain circumstances known; which
will, in all probability, lead to a complete de-
tection of the inhuman murderers.— (Dub/in
,Morning Post, Dec.l4.)
There was a numerous Meeting of the Magis-
trates of the County of Louth, at Castlebelling-
ham, on the 7th inst., and they have given an
opinion, that the public peace cannot be preserv-
ed there, unless all the corps of Yeomanry
that were originally raised in the county should
be put on permanent dray. They declare, that
secret meetings are held, and that they appre-
hend the perpetration, in the County,of Louth, of
such outrages as have disgraced other parts of
the kingdom.
The Cork .2.ldvertiser of the 11th inst. contradicts
the report of the shooting of one of the guards
who had been escorting the Doneraile post-boy.
Extract of a Letter from Tralee The mur-
derers of .Major Collis, with the exception of one,
have been discovered ; five of them have been
taken ; the man man who fired the shot is not
yet in custody."—(Waterford Mirror.)

On Saturday night, a notice was posted at
Patrick's-Well Chapel, near Loughgur, in this
county, signed " Captain Rock," ordering no
tithes or taxes to bt paid, a reduction of 60 per
cent. on all rents, ind directing the High Sheriff
not to be so officious in taking down the Captain's
order. Captain Gun, with tweive of the 93d re-
giment, took possession of a house directly oppo-
site the Chapel, at ten o'clock on Saturday even-
ing, and had not left it ten minutes, when a man
right well dressed, with new top boots, riding a '
grey horse, took a hammer from his pocket and
nailed up the notice. The person who saw him
has given information of the fact.
On Monday night, a number of armed men at-
tacked the house of Mathias Fitzgerald, of
Ballyvareen, near Kildimo, and broke into it,,
when they destroyed all his furniturei and left
a notice with a man of his, resident in the house,
to have Fitzgerald give up his farm ; they after-
wards killed two cows and a horse belonging to
Fitzgerald, supposed with a sledge, as their
sculls were beat in. Fitzgerald only took this
farm last May.

The neighbourhood of Welchestown, near
Charleville, is a scene of continued disturbance :
almost every night, bandittis patrole the roads
and attack the peaceable inhabitants. A re-
spectable Gentleman informs us, ,that, on Satur-
day night, five hundred Insurgents paraded near
Ehnvale, and took fire-arms from six farmers'
houses.

Yesterday morning, about six o'clock, Lieut.
Murris and a party of the Ballylongford Corps,
proceeded to a farm in the neighbourhood of
Ballybunion, to distrain some cattle, under
warrant of a Magistrate, and a report which was
circulated through the fair of Tarbert, that this
party were attacked and fired
.upon, having
reached Captain Robert Leslie, he, accompanied
by William Lindsay, Esq. Mr. Kittson, and a
party of the Tarbert Infantry, set off instantly
to their assistance, when they met them at Astee,
returni►►g, after beating off upwards of a thou-
sand people, armed with ,scythes, pitchforks, and
stones, killing two men and a woman, and wound-
ing several others.
