THE VACANT BISHOPRIC.

It is now, we believe, quite certain that the Rev. Ro-
bert Daley, the newly-elected Dean of the Arch-
diocese, will obtain the vacant mitre. The Statesman
of last night says, that the Hon. and Rev. B. H. W.
Maude receives the Deanery of St. Patrick's ; and
that the Rev. Mr. Balfour, nephew of Lady De Grey,
rce Ayes the Deanery of Clogher. The Castle of
Dublin is now called the " Cole-hole," and really the
number of relatives and connexions of her Excellency,
who have obtained the means of living therefrom,
justifies the nickname.

DEATH OF A. MAN SHOT IN A SCUFFLE WITH A

POLICEMAN.

The Kilkenny Journal of this morning has the fol-
lowing :—A short time since, a servant of Mr. Daniel
Lalor, of Ballyragget, named John Holly, had been
carrying a gun belonging to his master, which, by
his direction he had employed in the shooting of cro.As.
A policeman of the name of Baxter, who had been
serving summonses in the neighbourhood, demanded
the gun. Holly refused to give it, saying it was his
master's, who had a certificate of registry, and that if
the policeman accompanied him, he would find he was
telling the truth. The policeman, however, insisted
upon the immediate surrender of the gun. A scuffle
ensued, in which Holly was shot in the leg, from the
effects of which (mortification having set in) he died
yesterday, in the County Infirmary.
TESTIMONIAL TO TIIE MEMORY OF SIR M. O'LOGIILIN.

The Dublin papers of this day contain a long re-
quisition, signed by all the leading noblemen and
gentry of Clare, for a meeting to be held at Ennis on
Saturday next, for the purpose of making arrange-
ments for the erection of a testimonial to the memory
of the late Sir Michael O'Loghlin.

THE LEAGUE FUND.

The people of Belfast have set an excellent exam-
ple to the other towns of Ireland. Upwards of 1001.
have been subscribed by a few individuals to the Lea.•
gue Fund, and arrangements are in progress for a
general subscription.

THE POOR-FATES.

The Wateiford Chronicle states that on Friday last,
as Dr. Barron was serving poor-law summo:lses at
lUlonamintra, near the Ballimacaw-road, a number of
people were assembled by the blowing of horns, and
the collector was glad to effect his retreat by way of
Kilcauharagh-hill. The assembly at the latter place,
mentioned in Saturday's report of the Board of Guar-
dians, was principally composed of people from Killea
and Carbally, not from Kilcauharagh itself.
