DUBLIN AND GALWAY RAILWAY.

The Earl of BESBOROUGH brought up the report of the-
Select Committee, appointed to inquire into certain allega-
tions which had been made against the Dublin and Galway
Railway Company. The Committee had only thought it ad-
visable to go into the allegation respecting the forgery of four
names to the subscription• deed of the Company, and they as-
certained that the Company had been in the habit of making
a lotments of shares without obtaining any references as to the
respectability or status of the applicants. They also hoped
that their report, and the petition containing the allegations,
would be referred to the Committee which was now
sitting upon the Bill. It was not his intention to
oppose the second reading of the Bill, which was appointed for
that evening or to raise any discussion at present respecting
these allegations, as ample opportunity would be afforded, on a
future occasion, for that purpose.
Lord BROUGHAM thought it much better that no discus-
sion should arise on the subject at present.
After a short consultation the Bill was read a second time
and ordered to be committed.
The Inclosure of Lands Bill, the Loan Societies Bill, the
Turnpike Acts Continuance Bill, the Highway Rates Bill,
and the Unlawful Oaths Bill, were severally read a first time,
and ordered to be printed.
The Marquis of CLANRICARDE wished to put a question
to one of the Ministers of the Crown in reference to the con-
duct of a magistrate and deputy-lieutenant of the county of
Leitrim.

---
The Duke of VI, ELLINGTON—You should have given no-

tice of your question.
The Marquis of CLANRICARDE said he would put his
question then to-morrow. It would relate to the conduct of a
Mr. Watson, a magistrate and a deputy-lieutenant of the
county of Leitrim, who had taken an active part in the Orange
meetings and processions which had lately taken place in that
county.
LANDLORDS AND TENANTS (IRELAND) BILL.
The Marquis of LONDONDERRY, who hadnot the good
fortune to be present on Tuesday evening when the Noble Lord
the Secretary for the Colonies stated his intentions with respect
to the Landlords and Tenants' Bill, would be glad if the Noble
Lord would state clearly and distinctly whether Government
intended proceeding with the measure in the present session.
The Noble Marquis then presented a number of petitions from
various places in Antrim, Belfast, Londonderry, and Down,
agvinst the Bill, signed by landowners and others, and con-
cluded by imploring the Noble Lord to withdraw the Bill.
Lord STANLEY regretted that the Noble Marquis was
not in the House when he made a statement with respect to the
Bill. It was not his intention to ask the House to pass the
Bill during the present session.
RECOGNIZANCES FOR COSTS OF BILLS BILL.
Lord BROUGHAM said, as it had not yet been determined
whether the order with regard to costs in railway Bills should
be affected by a Bill or not, he should postpone the second
reading of this Bill until to-morrow. The Noble Lord ex-
pressed his regret that a Bill (the name of which he did not
mention) had been read a third time before five o'clock, during
his absence from the House. By it a poor clergyman, who had
a living of 70/. a year, and who kept a school within forty yards
of the route of the railway, would be nearly ruined, as no one
would then send their children to his school. What compen-
sation would the Railway Company give him for so great a loss?
Lord REDESDALE cited the case of a poor person who
had expended 1,000/. upon a building.
Alter some further observations from Noble Lords the sub-
ject dropped.
The third reading of the Public Works (Ireland) Bill was
then proposed and carried, and the House adjourned.

DUBLIN", JULY 15.—ORANGE PROCESSIONS.—INQUESI:
AT ARMAGII.-A letter from Armagh, dated Monday even-
ing, contains the following :
" The inquest on the body of John Boyle commenced this
day at twelve o'clock, before Mr. Magee, the coroner. The
Earl of Gosford, and several other magistrates of the county
were in attendance. The first witness was David Cassidy, but
Irom the number of witnesses at both sides, the inquiry will be
a protracted one. It is stated that another of the persons
wounded died this morning."
NEwitY, JULY 14.—This day, at three o'clock, r.m., a
body of about fifty Orangemen came down the mountain from
Altnaveagh, beating drums and firing random shots. Many
of them were dressed with sashes. They had one large flag.
At the corner of Kiln-street (on the borders of the town) they
wheeled about and fired several rounds opposite the Court-
house. By this time a crowd began to collect of the Liberal
party, a great part of whom were women and b Sys. Hoot-
ing and hissing then commenced, and stones began to fly from
both sides. The Orangemen then retreated up Doran s-hill,
each part 2, advancing and retreating alternately, amid showers
of stones. Some windows were broken.
At this time they received information that the people were
about to surround them, therefore they prudently marched, or
rather decamped, up the hill again to Altnaveagh, where they
went through the mockery of a sham battle.
There was not a single policeman to be seen during the
whole affray.
ORANGE MAGISTRATES AT PROCESSIONS.

The Dublin Evening Post, referring to the appearance of
several magistrates as active partisans in the processions on the
lath of July, says :—" Two Orange papers, the Belfast Chro-
nicle and Newry Telegraph state that the Orange procession
at Lisburn, comprised, it is said, of 50,1 00 persons, was headed
by James Watson, Esq., justice of the peace, and deputy
lieutenant, on horseback. One of the flags exhibited bore the
inscription ' No compromise with Popery. We deem it ne-
cessary to call the attention of the Lord-Lieutenant to this
matter."
