, RIOT IN THE DUBLIN THEATRE.

FURTHRR PARTICULARS.
The most active of the rioters at the Dublin The-
atre on Saturday night appear to have been about 50
or 60 in number. When the police officers entered
the upper gallery, several of them, sliding down into
the middle gallery, mingled with the audience. Se-
'oeral men were seized, when a desperate attempt
was made to rescue them.
Of the numerous hand-bills which were scattered
through the house, in the course of the evening, we
have seen several ; none of them would deserve no-
tice, if they did not tend to shew the folly, as well
as the ferocity, of the party ; we shall transcribe
them, as they will speak, 41 trumpet tongued,"

mory" at Alderman James's inauguration dinner, in three weeks
after. the. Kuus's departure from Ireland, whilst the ink with
which his Majesty's parting injunction was written might almost

4The present Lord Mayor.
A legal work of some repute, compiled by Mr. Gabbett,
the Police Magistrate, and Barrister of College-street Division.
Among the incidents which occurred on this me-
morable occasion, we think the following fact worth
mentioning :—A Gentleman in the middle galle:y
happened to look up towards one of the rioters in the
upper gallery, when the fellow threw the remains of
some beer in the Gentleman's face, exclaiming at the
same time—" There's holy water for you; there's
Pope's— for you !"
Two rattles, besides that which was thrown at the
Lord Lieutenant's box, were taken by the officers.
There is, unfortunately, too •much reason to suppose
that the missile was not thrown at hazard. The dis-
tance from the upper gallery to the stage is consi-
derable, and force alone, together with a tolerable
aim, could have directed the piece of timber' to the
box whereon it struck, and the stage on which it fell.
Alderman Darley suffered severely in his struggle with
Haridwich, and was*shottly after obliged to go to his
house for the purpose of putting on fresh apparel.—
Sir G. Neville, Mr. Tudor, Mr. Graves, and Mr.
Gabbett, Were also noticed exercising much activity
in preserving order, and securing offenders.
Mr. Farrell, of the Head-office, was at one time in
great danger: in endeavouring to arrest one of the
most prominent disturbers, he exerted himself to fol-
low a Serjeant of the Guards, who had just got over
the iron spikes, which project between the fourth tier
of boxes and the upper gallery ; in the struggle he
got entangled in the irons, and could not move until
he was raised up by an individual, who came promptly
to his'relief ; he escaped without injury; his clothes
were torn by the spikes.
At the commencement of one of the Acts, the Lord
Lieutenant, who had been conversing with some of
his suite, was moving towards his chair, when a voice
from the opposite corner of the middle gallery roared
out, " A groan for the Lord Lieutenant—No Popish
Government—No bayonets !" The Noble Marquis
darted a sudden glance at the speaker, waved his
hand towards the quarter from whence the sound
proceeded, indicated that he noticed the occurrence,
and resumed his seat.
The prisoners sent to College-street Office under-
wept an examination before the Magistrates on Sa-

and descriptions of the prisoners are as follow, and

ATROCIOUS CASE OF ABDUCTION AND FEMALE
VIOLATION !—About twelve o'clock on the night of
Monday sennight, Daniel Sullivan, a farmer, residing •
at Huntinghill, near Carrignavar, within a few miles
of Cork, heard a loud knocking at the door of
his house, and, on inquiring the cause, was informed
by the parties outside that they wanted arms. On
his replying that he had none, one of the assailants
was heard to call to the Captain for the sledge,
when immediately the door was forced open, and
' twelve ruffians entered, some of whom were armed—
a blunderbuss and musket were seen. The daughter
of the ow•er of the house, Mary Sullivan, fled in
great terror to her mother's bed, from whence she
was dragged by one of the party, a man named
Forde, whothen avowed that it was her they wanted.
The speed with which they hurried the poor girl
away did not leave her time, as she said, to tighten
on her clothes." When taken outside the house, she
was placed on a horse before Forde, and rapidly car-
ried off, several of the party being left to keep watch,
lest any alarm should be given. This unfortunate
female had not been brought any very considerable
di tance when the party was joined by a man named
Laurence COnnell, who resides near Whitechurch,
and who was not with the party when they came to
Sullivan's house. This Connell told Mary Sullivan
that she must marry him. She was conveyed to Forde's
house, at a place called Arthamathane, about two
miles from where her father lives; and being there
under the influence of extreme terror, in conse-
quence of the most violent threats, she yielded, and
went to bed with Connell. When she rose in the morn-
ing, Forde and his wife concealed her in a cock-loft.
Justin M'Carthy, Esq. of Carrignavar, a Magistrate,
instantly proceeded with a party of dragoons and in-
fantry to rescue the unfortunate girl, and, if possible,
to take into custody the ruffians by whom this out-
rage had been perpetrated. On Tuesday night she
was found, and brought to a place of safety. Forde
k and his wife were taken into custody by a constable
acting under a warrant from a Magistrate, and after
a long examination before Alderman Newsom, were
fully committed far trial.

HUNTING.
The Ayrshire subscription pack of harriers threw off on Sa.
turday last, at Craigie Castle. Two hares were very soon started,
the dogs laid on, and after a smart run of 20 minutes they killed
one. Old Wilkinson immediately rode back, and laid the hound,
on the second hare, which happened to be a very strong one, and
after a most severe and wonderful run of an tour and 45 mi-
nutes, they killed her, only having had one check during the
run, which measured 18 miles. Out of 10 Gentlemen in the
field, only two could be seen at the death. This was certainly
the best run the Ayr hounds have ever had, and perhaps nothing
eqtral to it is on record.
Thursday last, the East Kent Fox Hounds met at Tyler Hai
The frost was very severe until half-past ten o'clock, and although
the scent was not very good, a brilliant run was expected. They
soon unkennelled a fox, which turned out to be a rank coward,
in a wood close to Shelford farm, and after a run or two in some
coppices, adjoining Hales place, made directly into the pleasure-
grounds of Sir EDWARD HALES, Bart. Here the pack being so
close at his brush, he had no tune for manoeuvring, but made his
play back again to Shelford farm, where he was headed, and
with great difficulty reglined the pleasure-grounds of Hales-
place, and after a tedious run in these grounds jumped down an
area 20 feet deep, leading to the cellar, where he was killed, to
the great enjoyment of Lady Ham, and Mr. DARREL. Mr.
OESNDZN, who hunts the pack, with his well-known gallantry, as
well in the drawing-room as in the field, presented her Ladyship
with the brush ! The usual hospitality of the inmates of the
mansion was offered to Mr. Ow:nen and several of his friends,
which was politely declined, trusting to find a fox more conge-
nial to a sportsman's feelings, than the one just killed, who pre•
ferred basking in the sun-shine of Lady Ha Las's favour, than like
a Rob Roy Mac Gregor taking boldly the open country.
