JOHN REDDIE, Esq. late Commander of the Hon.
East•lndia Company's shy CALCCTTA, hits been
sworn in as Master-Attendant to tire Hon. Compan y

The trial of the parties prosecuted for the fraud
on the Stock Exchange concluded yesterday. They
were all fount guilty.

The Proclamation of the Irish Cnvernment seems
to have produced an immediate effect. The Board
tried tomuster on the followi•ag day ; and The Evening
Put glveb the following account of the attempt :

" Catholic Board Room, June 4.

" At three .'clock: a few Member*. zJeembled ;—about four
o'cl ;eh the Prochinhaion was handed to anntes. O'Connter.,
'Loci. who read it to the Members present (sixteen). A cotiver-
sati.4l took place, Nhich tended to say, that if 21 Members
were present, the Chair 4hould be taken ; however, twenty-one
Members did not atteod, and, at half past' five o'clock, the per-
sons present retired."

A diabolical fabrication, in the shape of a report,
of the assassination of the Duke of WELLINGTON, and
two of his Aides-de-Camp, in Spain, was put forth,
by a contemporary Journalist last night. The gloomy
report was vamped up on the authority of a pretended
letter from Toulouse, dated on the 28th ultimo ; but
we will venture to say, that no such letter was ever
received, and Toulouse, of all other places, was the
last from which such disastrous intelligence could
have soonest reached us. Besides, we have French
Papers now before us, with intelligence from Tou-
louse of the 31st, and no such event is alluded to. It
is truly disgraceful to sport with the public feeling: in
this manner.

From what was rumoured in the Papers on Wed-
nesday, it was erroneously believed that Peace would
be proclaimed yesterday. The order issued by Go-
vernment for a grand Illumination for three succes-
sive nights, commencing last night, and the fixing of
posts in the City, at the principal points in the usual
line of the procession in that ceremony, appear to
have encouraged, if not caused this repot. It was,
however, without foundation ; for up to the present
moment, the Members of the Heralds' Office have
not received any information of the day on which
this ceremony of proclaiming the Peace will be per-
formed.

We have seen a letter from the county of Cavan,
which intimates the horrible and melancholy fact of
twenty-four men and two women having been mas-
sacred i❑ an Orange affray that occurred at Sher-
cock, on Monday sennight!!—Freman's Journal.
Monday night, some villains burned three houses
on the lands of Bolter, the libtrties of Limerick, be-
cause .he occupiers had dared to contract, on reason -
ble terms, for gravelling pan of ;he new line of road
from dunce to Tipperary,
