DUBLIN, SEPTEMBER 13.

Yesterday, the celebrated Burrtster, Andrew ?il'Ma-
hon, Esq. whose ancestor " kicked a Common Coun-
cilman down stairs," lodged informations at College-
street PoliceOffice,under the following circumstances:
The Learned and ill, used Counsellor stated, that on
the 12th ult. he was violently assaulted by a Mr. Mi-
chael O'Connor, at the house No. 2t, Crow-street.—
That he (Counsellor M'Mabon) was afterwards im-
prisoned in Fleet-street watch-house, where he was
detained six hours, by which means his health was
much injured, it being " a mighty cold night." Bul
this was not the worst of it ; tor, on the 22d ultimo,
Mary O'Connor, alias Connor, alias Wolfe, alias
Shannon, the wife of Michael O'Connor, without any
provocation whatever, threw a bucket of suds, and
other dirty water, over him (Counsellor M‘Mahonj,
by which means his clothes were destroyed, and his
person overwhelmed with suds. The Counsellor fur-
ther stated, that on Wednesday last he obtained a
summons at College-street Police Otface, against Mi-
chael O'Connor and Mary his wife, and that whilst
he was in the act of serving it on them personally,
They attempted to throw him over the bannisters, and
threw him down a flight of stairs.—This case will
come on for trial before the Recorder at the ensuing
Sessions.

A few days since, a Mrs. R. Bach, of Longford-
lane, applied to the Magistrates of the Head Police-
Office, Dublin, in order to lodge informations against
a girl of the name of Catherine Ludlow, who, she
alleged, was in the habit of annoying her when she
would be going to Meeting, telling her at times that
" it was more from love of bacon than piety that she
went to swaddle;" and that on a late occasion she had
called her " a bacon•hunting looking —." Mrs.
rt. Bach said, that she did not know what was meant
by this expression, when Miss Catherine Ludlow, who
attended, exclaimed—" Oh 1 you know well what it
means." After a suitable reprimand to Miss Ludlow,
the case was dismissed.

Monday se'nnight, Hugh Devenny, of Donny-
hi ewer, near Muff, accompanied by a constable,
went to William Donaghy's, in the same neighbour-
hood, to execute a Manor Court distress, which he
had obtained against him. The constable had seized
some goods, and an altercation bad arisen between
the parties respecting the amount of the debt, when
John Donaghy, son to William Donaghy, armed
himself with a gun, and being aided by his father',
and other members of the family, rescued the dis-
tress, and obliged Devenny and the constable, who
were unarmed; to quit the house. They had got but
a few paces from the door, from which they were
quietly retiring, when they were followed by John;
who fired and shot Devenny through the body. The
unfortunate man reeled, fell, and immediately ex-
pired. A Coroner's Inquest was held on the de-
ceased by Mr. William Ellis—Verdict, "That Hugh
l)evenny's death was occasioned by a shot from a
gun, fired by John Donaghy, wilfully, with an in-
tent to kill."—John Donaghy, and William and Re.
becca his father and mother, have been committed
for the murder, by Thomas Scott, Esq. of Willsbo-
rough. Some of the faMily have absconded. It ap-
pears, that when John tool the gun, the constable
seized it, and would have wrested it from him, and
prevented the dreadful catastrophe, had be been per-
, mined by the family.
A few days ago, the Rev. Mr. Hamilton, of Ro-'
sanna, was way-laid and severely beaten by two mis-
creants, in Mrs. Tighe's Avenue, . about a mile and 0
half from toe town of Wicklow. The assailants bad,
it appears, intended to murder Mr. Hamiltdn'llaati
were happily Rrevented froth accomplishiqg A4x

a most destructive Ire Irate "Alt in the floor-eloto
manufactory of Messrs. Rollivend tiouistcm, at the
angle of the Orange and New Ilermondery;roada
—lt originated in the boiling-house, and, from the
highly inflammable nature.d the materials, spread
with rapidity to the extensile .thanofattory, con-•
suming the entire buildinr, together with a heavy.
,stock, of immense value. The flames next caught tEe
dwelling-house of Mr. Rolls) jun. which was entirely
destroyed. The timber-yard of Mr. Dears, adjoin:
ing, caught_ fire, and the whole premises were in one
tremendous blaze. Many engines arrived, but the
total absence of water was deplorable. By the tier=
dons of the firemen a heavy pile of mahogany Was
carried off. The roof and back of Mr. iiioulston's
house, in the New Bermondsey-road, was rnateriallt
injured ; upwards of twenty houses in Pitt's-place and
Chapel-court are more or less damaged, and, being
in the occupation of weekly tenants, the distress oc-
casioned by their necessarily hasty removal was al;
fecting. Hall, Rice, Collingwood, and a large Party_
of the Surrey patrol were in active attendance. At
abbot ten o'clock, a shed, osi which were SO or 60
persons, gave way, and several were midi hurt, but
none seriously. The premises were partly insured.
At half-past eleven o'clock the fire was extinguished,
with the exception of some-piles of timber, but from
which no further danger was expected.
A fire broke out late on Saturday night at a noto-.
rious house of ill-fame in Little St. Thomas Apostle,
which iu a short time destroyed the whole of the in-
terior. Its profligate occupants were taken so com-
pletely by surprise that they were lest no time to se-
cure their apparel, but fled half-clothed into the
street, exposed to the hootings of the multitude.

At a late hour on Saturday evening, eight other persons ins-
plicated in the melancholy affair at Chippenhans were conducted
to Fisberton Jail ; and yesterday mut Mug the COILONIA teatime&
the investigation.
