Oct. R.—The banditti who have lately commit.
ted fevetal• defperate atrocities in the neighbour-
hood of Churehßown, hnve created great alarm:
They are fail to be above 16 in number ; Come of
them were dreffed in women's clothes. Moll of
them, we hear, are known to the inhabitants, but
they are afraid to mention their names. Striet
(earth is making after thofe defperadoes, and we
have no doubt but their predatory career will be
of as Ihort duration as that of many of thole who
have been recently executed.

O 1 Friday at night fall, a very numerous ban-
ditti rufhed into the village of Dundrum, three
smiles from Dublin; they fixed fentries at the
doors of feveral houfes, while fele& bands of eight
or ten entered other houfes and robbed the inhabi-
tants. 'ln this manner, Barret, a farmer, who alfo
keeps a public-houfc, was robbed of i 3ol.his watch,
and fame valuables.

Millet, a perfon who keeps jaunting cars and an
ale-houfe, of 61. and upwards.
Rinkle, a fanner, of his half year's rent, which
he made up to pay his landlord.
Several perfons attempted with fuch weapons as
came to hand, to nal out and repel this dreadful
banditti—but the robbers, svho fired repeatedly,
were too numerous to be encountered, and carried
off their booty at cafe. Four of them, however,
have fence been apprehended by the adivity of
Major SIR R.
A Privy Council was held at the Caale on
Tuefday lall, by his Excellency the Loan LIE u-
Timm. Betides other bufinefs tranfa6led, a
proclamation was ordered, offering a reward of
two hundred Founds for each of the villains who
were concerned in cutting and maiming John
Clark, a private in the Tyrone Militia, on Monday
morning the 11 ft of September l.tll, between one
and two o'clock, as he was on duty as a centinel at
the Grand Canal bridge, upon the road leading to
Rathmincs

The favage manner in which the bare tranric-
was perpetrated, was thus : one of them fuddenly
came behind the poor man, and threw him down
on his face, and held him by the neck, while the
other cut the back finews of his right leg.
Monday, the great cattle fair of Ballinafroe corn-
. menced, but if the pacific intelligence reached it
in time, the graziers mutt have experienced a
molt ttnexpeeted and diragrceable reverie to their
expeCtations of profit.—§evcral exprelles were dif-
patched from this city on Sunday to initruet the
buyers in the change of affairs, and if they did not
travel with fufficient fpeed, they will have reached
their friends only dote enough, probably, to mew
nounce to many of them their ruin.
