DUBLIN, DECEMBER to.—Notwithflancling the
many favnuratile reports of Major O'Ceormogan's
Lifetv, it is a melancholy fall, that he embarked on
board the Rochdale, and (hared the unhappy fate of
his fellow (offerer,' in the late shipwreck in the Bay.
Captain Henry, of the fame regiment, the 97th, was
alfo on board. Mrs.•O'Gormogan took her palfage
in the Lark, and is now at Liverpool.

While we feel forrow in announcing that the fate
of Major o,Gormogan is too certainly afcertained
any longer to doubt that he was one of the unfortu
nate paffengers in the Rochdale, we feel fatisfaCtion
in being able pofitively to Rate that Captain Gregory
and Lieutenant Killikelly, who were fuppofed to
have embarked in the fame vac!, arrival fafely at
Holyhead in the Lord Charles Spencer, which left
Dublin on the t7th ult. It is gratifying alfo to
know, that of all the veffels with troops which failed
from Dublin in that week, only the two that went
of ore in the bay (the Rochdale and the Prince of
Wales) were 101 l ; the Tell, by keeping the open
Chafinel, were providentially preferved. The Lark.
the Albion, and the Sarah, are all in ports in South
Wales.
Monday evening, a little before Az o'clock, as Bri-
padier General Brerercin was going to the Bifhop of
Kildare's, in a poll chaife, his chaife was flopped
about half way between' the turnpike, where the
roads fork, and the bridge of Glafnevin, by five or
lix armed men, with piQols. One of this banditti
ran before the poft boy and flopped the horfes, im-
niediately on which four of them fp? nng from each
Ale of the road, forced open each door, and threat.

Cud another of them frogs' the oppofite door,

that the decay of the gutter was owing to Iris own
