Carcszemo.--The manly game of cricket was, in the
early part of the week, particularly on Monday, resorted to
by many of the best players, in this town and neighbour-
hood. On Monday a party assembled on the race.coursc,
and played a well.contested match, the only drawback to
which wasMesds, one of the players, receiving a severe blow
in the pit of his stomach, from a ball struck by the power.
ful hand of Brown, and which laid him prostrate, gasping
for breath. He is, however, now recovered. It is reported
that Brown has hired the beautiful lawn at the Royal Gar-
dens. If so we trust that he will meet with due encourage-
ment. A better selected spot, or more conveniently situated,
cannot be selected. The same day the Lewes Club placed
on the Cliff-hill against the Chalvington club, in which
the latter were the victors, and eight wickets to go
down. And at the same time a match was played between
eleven single men of Lewes, and a like number from Ram-
sey, and adjoining parishes, when the Ramsey bachelors
were beaten.

Considerable amusement was produced at Lucombe's Li.
brary, on Wednesday, by the conduct of some mischievous
wag, who, under the pretence of fishing to the very bottom
of his' Bonne Aventure' basket for a prize, took the oppor-
tunity of slipping a quantity more tickets Into it. In a few
minutes one of the spurious papers was drawn by a lady,—
who, to the astonishment of the librarian, gave into his hands
a ticket for' a green monkey.' " Another drew a" eat and
seven kittens."trA:third " .Mr. Lacombe's modesty at a
fiir valuation." A fourth, " Lacombe himself, or two gui.
near in exchange," with a variety of others, equally ea
centric.

His Grace the Duke of Richmond and Lord Lowther, as
Stewards, have transmitted a letter to the Chairman of the
Brighton Race Committee, fixing the Races for the 27th,
28, and 29th of next month. The arrangements at present
stand thus :—for the first day, the Brighton Stakes, for
which sixteen horses are already entered ; and an extra
sweepstakes of 25 sou. for 3-year old colts, independent of
the usual plates. His Majesty's Gold Cup, value 100 sous.
will be contested on the second day; and an extra sweep.
stakes of 25 sons. for 3-year old colts, betides the usual
stakes and plates.
A prospectus of a Proprietary School, to be established in
Brighton, is now in circulation. We have read it carefully
over, and consider its claims to public attention well worthy
of consideration. To give a first-rate education to our youth,
for a moderate sum annually, is its primary objeet.
French cherries already garnish the windows of our
fruiterers, a small vessel from Hadieur having arrived in
Shoreham, with a cargo of these rarities.

A dinner was given at the Rose and Crown Inn, on Tues-
day last, to C. C. Western, Esq. in honour of his seventh
return as the representative of the county. Mr. Western, in
the course of his address, alluded to what he termed the de-
rivative qualification, differing with Lord Milton, as he con-
tended that every farmer who paid rent, rates, and other
charges, ought to have the franchise.

About eleven o'clock on Wednesday night last, a fire broke
out in the large four-story building at the 'corner of
Broad-street and Hamilton Avenue, Boston, thelowcr part
occupied by Mr. Maynard, as a bakery, and the upper by
seven Irish families. When first discovered, the flames had
made considerable progress, and raged with such rapidity
and violence, that Mr. John Murphy, his wife, and three
children, all asleep in the upper stories, were burnt to death
before assistance could be rendered. Their remains, dial-
gured, partially consumed, and altogether presenting a shock.
ing and repulsive spectacle, were yesterday morning taken
from the smokingsntins, and properly interred. One Timo.
thy Sullivan, who occupied an upper room, not being able to
escape down the stairs, first threw a child from the window,
and then leaped out himself. The child was fortunately
caught by some one below, and saved, but Sullivan, it is
said, is it, badly Injured, that he cannot survive. Several
others with great difficulty escaped barely with their lives.
The ages of the children burnt were, it is understood, about
ten, six, and two years of age. They were, no doubt, all
smothered while in bed, as the bed, bedding, &c. were seen
to fall in one mass.

The return of cold weather on Monday was most unseason-
able and unlooked for ; and, catching people as it did, in
their summer attire, was the more keenly felt. The thee.
mometer, in a sheltered situation where the cold north wind
could not reach it, fill from 75 to 52—a difference of 23
degrees.
It Is very confidently stated, in quarters likely to be
well informed on the subject, that the ex-members of the
" expediency" Administration, or,_ as they hue been more
aptly designated the " Peel and Dawson crew," have sent in
their submission to the ministry, with an intimation, that
they are ready and willing to ' make themselves generally
usefull" in forwarding the views of Earl Grey and his col-
leagues.

CUTLERY FOR THE QVUX.— An enter, which Iwo
lately received from his \l,jes•y by Messrs. Sarivom and

Sour, of this town, cutlers to the King. has just been com.
pitted, and will be forwarded this week to the Royal Palace.
It consists of 25 dozen of table and dessert knives and alas,
mounted with a silver crown. having awed ivory handles;
and, being intended for the Queen, the With& A. R. and the
crown are engraved upon them. The blades of the bakes
bear the makers' names, and " Cutlets to their Mnisees.s
The forks are of silver, and made after the aid
shion, at the Nrticular renuest of the King, toirside
the spoon handled fork. The whole are enclosed m two
elegant mahogany boxes, richly lined with velvet, the ids
of which are ornamented with silver. A plate is fixed. in
the centre of each, upon which is inscribed her Majesty's
initials. They at present remain for inspection at the ma-
nufactory of Messrs. Sansom and Sons, and are a sight
which must be witnessod with pleasure by every slitter.
THE OVERSEEN{ OP AVIERCLIPPL-..The overseers of
this township again submitted their accounts to the maOs-
trates this day. A vestry meeting of the rate payers had
been held, in compliance with the decision of a former meet-
ing, and they bad been allowed by the majority of the rate.
payers present. Mr. Gayle complained of the system of
book keeping which they had adopted. They had made
entries of- payments which remained unpaid several months
afterwards. This was a very just complaint; but at the
same time, it appeared that Mr. Sayle was perfectly satisfied
of the .correctness of the abstract. No further objections
were made regarding the alteration of the workhouse. The
complainants, however, hoped that the overseers would re-
duce the rate paid for the bricks, as they could have obtained
the same quantity, and as excellent a material at a lower
rate. The magistrates trusted that the rate.payers would
not make a few thousand bricks a stumbling block to the
allowance of the accounts on the present occasion. This
objection was waived. After some alterations had been
made in the books in the presence of the magistrates, the
accounts were allowed.

WATER SPOITTSA water spout of immense she was
observed last wet, five miles west of Keighley, in York-
shire. It continued in motion for thirty-five minutes,:and
then burst. Its appearance was like an inverted cone. A
similar pliencen!non was observed last week in Inver.
namshiro.

The agents of his Grace the Doke of Devonshire have
offered to erect a public newa.room and library, on a piece
of land in the centre of the town of Chaterheld, opposite
the Old Falcon Inn, ',melded the inhabitants will accept it
for that purpose at a moderate rent.
TITUMPII or RElloll3l.—.From a calculation by a con-
temporary it appears that there is in England a majority of
85 members, 9,936,1189 of population, and 44,643,1981. of
of property, in favour of the reform measure. There is in
Wales a majority of three members and 15,342 of popula.
lion for, and 114,994 L of property against the bill. In
Scotland the majority for reform is likewise three members,
and there is opposed to it a majority consisting of a popu-
lation apparently of 104,270. The measure in Ireland has
a glorious majority of 36 members, and 3.654,834 of popu.
lation. The correct amount of all these estimates will be
found to give a gnat majority of 127 members, and
13,504,775 of population, for the bill.
Hutt., Jerrie 7.—Transactions in the corn trade during
the past week have been limited, and a general dulness pre-
' railing compared with the previous week t prices, however,
cannot be reported Myer, and although the present arrivals
, of Wheat from the Beale are generally going into bond, yet
the feeling is rather to pay the duty of 13s 81 than allow
them to remain under lock ; to-day, the supply of farmers'
wheat is very limited, and the prices of last week have been
fully supported ; the holden of foreign do not press their
wheats on the market; and although the market cannot be
noted lower, the business passing is very trifling, at last
week's currency. There is more enquiry after Oats, and
the prices of last week have been fully maintained ; 21s to
22s is demanded for Rip Oats in bead ; at 205 there are
buyers. Nothing passing in Malting Barley; Grinding is
enquired after at low prices. Beans remain without altera-
tion ; in Linseed and Rapeseed dull sale.
ROTHERHAM CATTLE MARKET, JUKE 6.—There was
a good show of fat Cattle to this day's Market, of an ex.
°cllent quality, which met with a very dull male. and prices
a shade lower than last week's quotation.— Cattle, 180 ;
Sheep, 2,250 ; Lambs, 540.—Beet, Is. 3d. to per stone.
Mutton, ed. per lb.
WAKIFIELD CATTLE MARKET, Juaiz B.—We bad
a good show of both kinds of Stock at Market, and a deal
of buyers, yet there was a lowering in prices.—Beef, per
atone, 6s. prime 6s. 6d; mutton, per lb. bd. to 6d; Lamb,
14a. to 21-s. per head. Beasts, 500; Sheep and Lambs,

Cniesta POLICE.—Jobn Bullock, shoemaker, appeared
to answer a complaint preferred against him by the overseer
of Trinity parish, for neglecting to maintain his era aid
child. His wife, who is a decent hard-working wales%
stated that he had left her for some time ; that wins be at-
UMW to his work he could earn above 20s. per week; but
that be refused to allow her even two or three shillings
weekly to subsist on, declaring be had not enough for him.
self.—This was explained by the overseer, who informed
the Bench that Bullock kept a regular debtor and creditor ac-
count with certain publicans, and that he strapped up with
them every Saturday night, to enable him to , strikes fresh
light " on Monday morning. Bullock.,—Mr Mayor, all
that has been said against ms is false; my wife turned me
out of the house; I did not leave her. I have two reasons
to show why I will not live with her,--the tint is, that she
does not lay a poor man's matey out as she ought to do;
the second is, that she sometimes gets a drop too mach.
Town clerk.—These are certainly gust alderman hops
to endure if they are true, but we doubt your weed en Om
points. Bullock.—l am glad that the reform bill will pus
soon ; as It is to change every thing in the nation, I hope k
will have some effect upon her, and that she will be as.
formed by it. (Laughter.) The Court ordered Bullock to
allow his wife 45. per week for her maintenance and that of
the infant. He refused to accede to these terms, and be was
therefore committed to the House of Correction.

charged with begging last night, in the ii it.—Haswe11,ll, the

real Cockney, said to him, "do you mean to insult me • I
vents no vork, I only vents relief."—The magistrates SLY
Gme that he ought to be well Slogged for traversing thesis.
ay and iwas able ow ork for his liveenlihood.—Gore, by way ,
of set off to this, observed, " I am not decent enough to go
into a mechanical shop amongst respectable men."—Both
of these sturdy beggars were committed to the House of
Correction for seven days.

noble family, we believe that of Grantham.

DUBLIN MORNING REGISTER, Jowt 8.
A correspondent in Limerick states that fourteen men
were convicted at Ennis, on Monday, of different crimes
under the Whiteboy act, and sentenced to transportation.
They were escorted into Limerick by a guard of soldiers, at
one o'clock yesterday morning, and were to be forwarded
forthwith to the convict ship at Cove. An immense Dumber
of persons, our correspondent states, were to be tried for the
murder of the policemen, in addition to those who have
been already arraigned or that offence. Our correspondent
adds, upon the authority of a letter from Ennis, that im-
mediately after the delivery of Mr. O'Connell's address to
the people, on Sunday, a deputation waited upon Mr. Steele,
offering, on the part of the population, to deliver up all the
-- in their To— , the

arms is, possession to . government.
MR. O'CONNELL'S SPEECH IN ENNIS.
ENNIS SUNDAY, JUNI .--Mr. O'Connell having,
through hand-bills 5
and-bills on Saturday, informed the peasantry that
he would address them on matters connected with their in-
terest this day, many thousands assembled at an early hour
in front of the Court-house, where, it was said, he would ad.
dress them. About three o'clock, the time appointed, Mr.
Steele had a platform erected in the square for the speakers
to stand on ; and until the arrival of Mr. O'Connell, he was
busily engaged in escorting ladles to the most prominent
Situation* in the ,square. The windows, in all directions,
were filled with handsome women, some of whom had orange
and green streamers. When Mr. O'Connell arrived, he
was loudly cheered by the multitude, and on ascend-
ing the platform, commenced his address. Ile said, he
sought the present opportunity of addressing them, and of
addressing the county through them ; and this at a moment
of great interest to the country in 'general, but to the people
of Clue particularly.--(Cheen.) He was, they were well
aware, deeply interested for them. He could no longer ab-
stain from advising them on a matter of the greatest import-
ance—be meant the lives of their relatives and friends now
in the hands of the law—and the ation of which de-
pended upon the manner in which r the peasantry may con-
duct themselves for the fatare.—(Heer.) If he (Mr. O'Con-
nell) be a friend to the peopk, and if the people acknow.
ledge it, they ought to listin to his advice. He had never
deserted them on any occasion; he had fought the battle of
the people for thirty years, and could thank his GOD he had
succeeded.—(Loud therms) The Brunswickers some time
ago were everything; they trampled upon the poor on-
o/leading Catholics; but their day of persecution had gone
by—the Catholic bill had laid them prostrate.—(Cheers.)
Those who beard him professed the same religion as
he did; be wee as warmly attached to it as any man
in existence; ?yet let them not mistake him, that re-
ligion, the source of sanctity itself, pronounced their conduct
in Clare as wicked and damnable. (Cheers.) Religion,
therefore, was no protection to any man guilty of sins, and
their conduct was most grossly sinful. They had not only
disgraced religion, but their fine county; but let them in
the name of God return to peace and order. (Cheers, and
we will, we will.) If you do conviction will cease, and.
perhaps, those who have been found guilty may be restored
to their families. He (Mr. O'Connell) bad broken down
the asmdancy which had trampled upon the Catholics, and
kept them in bondage ; but while the people continued to
pursue their present evil course, they gratified the Orange.
men, and armed them anew to persecute them. He had ad.
dressed the people of Tipperary, who were influenced at one
time to obstruct the due execution of the laws, but they hail
yielded to his advice, and subsequently thanked him for his
interposition. Became to Clare at grm..xpen.eand inconve-
nience to his family, audit was well known that he bad sacri-
ficed 7,0001. a year to go to parliament to fight for the p.o-
ple—(Cheers.) The Duke of Wellington hai acquired a
great name and great popularity u a victor, but who may be
thank ? The brave and virtuous soldiers of Ireland, who
never deserted their colours or their friend's in the WI of
danger. The people complain, and juitly, that glow
oppressed. He could not blame them, while the
nible subletting act existed ; while the vestry aotendliftia I
and a thousand other acts, which bore equally en 00.681111.1
try. (Cheers.) Bat until the people gave up disk terns--•
until they returned to hablta- of peace and Apilustry...
until they showed, by words and deeds, that them was ex
end to Terry-Aldsin, the Orangemen would be their
masters; as they were their abettors in their curse at
disloyalty—until the people gave up their arms, and proved
to the magistracy and the gentry of the county, that this
disgraceful system was at an end, the government would
not do any thing for them. He would, with the assistance
of their friends in Parliament, tear the disgraceful Sublet.
ting Act to rags; and perhaps six weeks would not elapse
before he would do so. (Cheers.) The vestry act was
wally bad, and should be similarlarly treated. (Cheers.)
e tythe system should be abolished. It was too bad
that the poor Catholic should be paying for the mainte-
nance of a rich Protestant church. The third of the
tithes belonged to the poor, and therefore, that third
ought to be restored to them. He was struggling for the
people, in endeavouring to correct these abuses, and if they
did not c with him, his labours would prove una.
reliable. There were the absentees too ; these should come

would refer them to his opposition to the Brunawickera and

people, in order to perpetuate their degradation ; but he
beat them down, and the Catholic stood now as elevated as
the Protestant. If then his advice—an advice tendered in
all the honesty of purpose and sincerity of heart, were worth
attending to, he bade them renounce their confederacy and
give up their arms. The Terry Alts were the greatest me.

The faction gloried in such a course; but they bad honest
Protestant Mends who never deserted them, nor would they
now. The Terry Alts, however, were arming them by their
base conduct to destroy their country. The Ribbon system
began in Armagh. It commenced with a fellow who cal-
led himself a Catholic, who went to the Catholic chapel in
the ce of hundreds, and received the holy communion :
this the better to impose upon an innocent and un-
thinking people whom be subsequently prosecuted and bad
hanged in great numbers. The Terry Alts of Clare are
now selling each other, and the question is, who will be the
first to sell the other, and at what price; and before a week,
informations will be sworn against more prisoners than three
jails could contain. Do, then (said Mr. O'Connell), dis-
appoint your enemies by returning to peace and good
order. The absentees, he said, could not take their pro-
perties to other countries; therefore they should, when
the peace of the country was restored, return to serve
them, if not to reside among them. It was fifty.six
years since the Whiteboy Act was first introduced in this
country. Did It do any good ? It did not. To be sure
it filled the pole and deluged the gallows. When this
diabolical system got
_pretty well organised, it afforded a
pretext to every murderer and robber to indulge in their
wicked vocations. In a month hence there would have
been no premed= for life or property, if measures had not
been promptly adopted to put an end to them. In the county
of Limerick he knew a ruffian to have acknowledged that he
committed seven murders, twenty robberies, and prosecuted
to death 16 men; and yet this villain escaped himself. No
good can, therefore. come from the wicked course pursued by
the Terry Alts. All the good they were doing was humm-
ing the police establishment. Now be had a great antipathy to
such an establishment, for they overreach their duty (cheers).
He had a great fancy that such men were not wanted in the
country. The military would do the business much better.
Even In prosecution eases see with what flippancy they give
their evidence! Contrast it with that of the honest and loyal
soldier, who did his duty honestly and fesdessly..—(Cheers.)
They do not torture the people, nor good them to violence.

people's friend. The Terry Ala were beating out the
people of any other county in crime. He did not wish
to see his country overrun with the policemen, nor with
the brave and honest military. No—he would sooner
see them assist the brave and glorious Poles, and fighting
' against the sanguinary Buulans, than to see them pitted
against each other. He would beg of them to give up
their lawless pursuits, and attend to the advice of their
pastor. Ireland never had a better King than his

If they gave np their arms, he would again repeat it, he
would ask of the Lord Lieutenant, or the King himself,

course, namely, for every head of a family to become a special
constable, and to take up every one of those vagabonds who
were disgracing the county. If they did this, it would cer-
tainly put an end to the Terry Alt system. It was Impossible
(said Mr. O'Connell) for the peasantry to get fair ply, for
justice was poisoned in its source. Blood was shed in every
quarter of the county, and justice should be done the murdered.
