(From The Da tin Correspondent, March. 8.)

A Meeting of the Magistrates of the County of
Galway was held at Loughtea, on Thursday last
--the High Sheriff in the Chair. We are sorry
to observe, that their important testimony is again
Put before the Public, to prove, " that the spi-
rit of DISAFFECTION has been most rapidly spread-
ing, with increased mischief and audacity, through
every part of this County (Galway.)"

This authentic testification of the rapid spread-
ing of Disaffection gives its deep concern, and
Will, we are certain, make an impression on
the public in general, not less serious and inte-
resting. We will not quartet with those who
Prefer their o►vn notions to ours, respecting► the
nature of the troubles which prevail in the County
^f G►lwny—the public will chose for themselves ;
btu any thing which we could propose to our-
selves, from tl►e weight of contemporary authority,
is folly and amply afforded by this unania►oos
Resolution Of the Magistrates of the County of
Galway, viz.—" that, since the meeting of
the Niagistrates of Athenry, we find the spirit
of Di•affection has been most rapidly spreading,
with increased mischief and audacity, through
every p•rt of this County." We have no objec-
tion to any vocabulary which political taste may
adopt, in speaking of the events that are poising
in Galway ; but, for our parts, whatever may he
the mantle of words thrown over things, we shall
vest content with those which the Magistrates of
Galway have supplied, and, without any conten-
tion on the point, submit to their judgment, and
believe with them, abut all the outrageous pro-
ceedings going on in ti►e quarter alluded to, ate
owing to the spirit of Disaffection which has Leen
Most rapidly spreading.
The Noblemen and Gentlemen, on this occa-
sion, conceived that " it would be impossible for
the Magistrates of the County, in its present
situation, to attend on all occasions When it may
be necessary for the troops to act ;". and they,
therefore, clime to the resolution of making earn-
est application to his Majesty's Government, to
request " that they will either appoint Special
Constables, unconnected with the County of Gal-
Way, for each military station ; or empower such
Officers as the General of tl►e District may ap-
Point, to act as Megistr4tes of the County of
Galway, until the present disturbances shall be
put down." They further enjoined the Land-
bolder, of the County, and besought them, " not
to yield to the terms attempted to be imposed on
them by the Insurgents, in •the letting of their
ittnds and the management of their concerns, but
to hold out, &c."

Certain stations for detachments of troops were
tecommended by a Committee, appointed for that
Purpose, and to confer with General O'Loughlin
and Colonel Browne, which were unanimously
agreed to. The Committee consisted of the High
Sheriff, his Grace the Archbishop of 'foam, Lord
Viscount Gort, Lord Cloubroek, the Right Hon.
Aresey Fitzgerald, James Daly, Esq. M.P , Sir
John Burke, Bart., William French, John Kir-
wan, j;in., Arthur St. George, and James Lam-
bert, Esqrs.
The following, not withstamting the presence of
a strong military force in the County of Galway,
are a few of the outrages which continue to be
committed :—On Friday night, the house of Mr.
O'Reilly, of Colesrminstown, between Tuarn and
Loughrea (formerly Mr. French's), was burnt to
the ground, because, as the banditti [dieted, it
*as intended to convert it into a barrack; and on
Sunday night James Hardiman Burke, Esq. De-
Piny Mayor of Galway, was attacked at his own
kesidence, St. Cleran's, near Dunsandle, and mira-
culously escaped assassination. A letter from a Gen-
tleman of very high respectability in the County
of Galway, says of this diabolical transaction—
°. A most atrocious outrage was committed last
sight. J. U. Burke was fired at, at his own gate
"--seven shots wete discharged at him, luckily
without effect.", These are melancholy examples
tif the alienation of the peasantry of the once peace-
able County of Galway from humanity, as well as
horn every sense of law and moral order—examples
hich,being but a small portion of many equally di-
abolical, demonstrate the necessity of vigour on the
Part of the Executive Government, such as is now
Pursuing, and which will not compromise with the
losurgent Ribbonmen, while a ruffian of their de.
testable fraternity is supposed to preserve a weapon
in his possession of an offensive description. No
tniddle or temperate course can now restore peace
ar order in the disturbed Counties.
The attack which has been noticed on Peruse
it) "dge, in the County of Galway, was undertaken
an immense number of the Ribbonmen ; and
"e defenders of t hat vet y assailable mansion, whose
bravery and resolution repelled such a ferocious
crowd,
prepared in every possible way for success,
deserve every tribute that can be paid to such
"oduct, and are well entitled to the thanks of
the country. The assailants commenced their
°Perations by firing several shots into the windows

POETRY.

MUSIC. •
" Untwisting all the chains that tie
" The hidden soul of harmony."

SY JOHN TAYLOR, ESQ.
APOLLO, regretting his favour io long
Had Italy grac'd with the Genius of Song,
Less partial to seem, cast his eyes all around,
Resolving to raise a new Master of Sound.
To Germany then be gave HANDEL sublime,
Whose strains will be heard 'till the death of old Time,
Those strains that, resistless, pathetic arid grand,
Comprise the whole scope for the Voice and the Baad.

Ai'oiio this prodigy eiew'd with a smile,
And deemed him e'en worthy of BarrAts's fam'd Isle,
That Isle where alone can true FBeaDoM be found,
While Carols of Loyalty echo around.

When HANDEL had long his full honours maintain'd,
And supreme o'er the regions of Harmony reign'd,
APOLLO decreed he from Earth should remove,
To preside o'er the Choir of THE NlusEs above.

Many years had elaps'd, asid,the God wish'd to know
If HANDEL retain'd his due honours below :
Of skill instrumental he found a rich store,
To give with precision and grandeur the Score,
But a Songstress ,was wanting whose puw'rs might impart
Those strains that at once find the way to the heart.

The God then to prove that to HANDEL belong
All the wonders of Harmony, Melody, Song,
His fame to complete, and to honour him more,
Such a Songstress inspir'd on his own native shore :
Then MAitA came forth, and his Shade to rejoice,
all his aims fur the BAND and the VorcE.

With such sweetness she sung, with such judgment and
fire,
That Envy, surpriz'd, could but hear and admire ;
Sublime and pathetic, so strong, yet refin'd,
The ear was euraptar'd, exalted the mind :
APOLLO approving, the Crown on her plac'd,
As EMPRESS of Music, EXPRESSION, and TASTE.
