Friday night fall, a moil (hocking murder was

appears, were the cooks of his unhappy catatirophe.
A villain who was working in the fame field, under
pretence of bringing him to an employer, who gave
higher wages, inveigled him into the fields, where
he knocked him down with the handle of his pitch-
fork, and afterwards, with the prongs, (bibbed him

THE LATE AFFRAY AT

More, on their march to their different regiments

" Early in the evening • militia man was sel•
drefred on the bridge by a boy, who cannot be dif-
covered, and who, pointing to a German foldier,
&fired the militia man to take care of thofe Germans.
calling them at the fame time by an offenfive appella-
tion. Upon this the militia man Hula the German
a violent blow on the head with a flick, which
brought him to the ground. The German being fe-
verely hurt, complained much, and a German Officer
(cited the militia man, and giving him up to the pe-
ople, ordered him to be taken to the guard-hoofe.—
This produced Come little confofion, and. nafortu-
nately at that moment the militia bugle founded to
arms: it is not known whether the bugle founded to
affemble the men at their ufuel hour of parade, or
in confequence of the interference of tome ill-dirpofed
perfons. but upon hearing it, the militiamen crowded
into the nreets with their arms. A party of them
formed, fixed their bayonets, and raked up the
.fireet towards the guard-houfe, to which the pr ironer
bad been conveyed. One of the Officers, Captain
Jones, of the Sligo, exerted himfelf without effeft to
Irene-Jig them, and a Brigade Major (a German Of.
ficer, bat doffed in a (cadet uniform, and probably
sot kneirn to befuch) drew his fword„ ran in front
of them, fucceeded in appearing them for a moment,
and with the affitlance of Captain Jones, forced them
down a lane. There they Coon became ungoverna-
ble again, and rufhed into the (beet in different di-
re/lions. and began to fire upon the German infan-
try, who by this time had *trembled in contiderable
numbers. The Germans fought at fink only with the
bayonet, but having made Tome prifonerc, they took
their ammunition and fired upon the militia. The
battle then became general, and feveral tell on both
fides; but General Lin.fingen, who had before in-
effeEtually interfered to appeafe the tumult, ordered
out the cavalry, charged through the floes, and
put an end to the bufinefs. During the remainder
of the night nothing occurred, the peace being pre-
reeved by peonies, and the militia were marched off
the next morning by General Dunn, (who bad been
abfent upon duty at Birr) upon their feveral routes,
with the excepti to flirt:eh as he detained upon the
charge of their having been particularly alive. 1r
appears that as Germans had been wounded, eight
very nightly, one has fine died, another (an officer)
is not expeetest to recover. Of the militia £3 are
wounded, five nightly, and one died aimed imme-
diately on being removed to the hot-pital.
" It is quite certain that the inhabitants of the town
took no part whatever in the affray : one of them,
by mere accident. was cut down and badly wounded
by a dragoon in the charge of cavalry; but there
has been no interruption of- the harmony and good-
will which had prevailed antecedently between them

From another refpedable quarter we have received
the following particulars :
" Four companies of light infantry marched into

to join their refpedive regiments, as follow.:

It teems certain that no premeditated ill will or eanfh
of quarrel tattled between the parties, but that it was
occasioned by the molt trifling circumnance, the heat
of a moment, probably inflamed by liqu• r.
se A boy, on the bridge in Tullamore told a mi.
litia light infantry man to beware of the German 101.

of the mania were near, as they were cone/ling for

time, approached to fee what was the matter 4 thee

A patrole from the main guard of the Commie
proceeded to the (pot, and took up a militia fol.
diet., who teemed to be a principal rioter ; (tweed
militia men, about twenty, followed the patrole to
recce, the prifoner. Captain During. of the German
light Infantry, was parading his company for roll.
call, and feting the patrole purfued. moved down
with his coMpany to cover them, and the militia men
retired, but loon halted, threw Pones, and then fired
feveral SOU, by which five of Captain During's
company were wounded. The Germans had no
ammunition, but-their bayonets %unfixed, with which
they repelled the agailaate.
" A great amply of the milltia had now affembled,
were loaded glad fired many Sots. Some were made
Trifoliate, and, it is faid,.the Germans 6rd with am.
munition found alma the prifoners. Major Central
Baron de Liafingen, on the gra alarm, ran nut
among the militia, and entreated them in the molt
earned wander, sad with the belt Engliffi of which
be was stater, to della, commanding the Germans,
at the fame time, to fall back and join their battalion.
He alto ordered a Rrong patrole of the German Ca.
valry to (weep the &revs of all rioters, commanding
his dragoons not to cut the rioters, and he mounted
his boric. The cavalry in doing thi. were Bred upon
and oppofed by the bayonet, and were no longer able
to refrain from ufing their (words ;re lof the
militia men were wounded, and Come, very probably,
who had no intention of joining in the affray, but
whom it was impoChle to dininguifh in the tumult.
General Linfingea's operation, however, cleared the
Irene, and the affray was concluded in about a 101 l
half hour from fir( to laft.
to The officers of the militia light cmnpaniee hap.
petted to dine at the Canal Hotel, at the extremity of
the town, but as Conn as they were informed of the
diforder they hanened to the (pot, and exerted them.
&lees in codeding and forcing back their men. Cap•
trio loner, of the Sligo, was particularly remarked
compelling with his (word hi. men to fall in and re-
tire from the fem. Several (hots had been iced from
the windows upon the Germans.
" Thus concluded a molt unpremeditated affray
without an object, from the heat of the moment, and
which but for the pretence of mind and judicious
conduß of Major General Baron de Linliogen Might
have ended even (fill more ferionily.
It is greatly to be regretted, however, that fe.
veral brave foldiers are feverely wounded p--tone
German of the Light Infantry is lince dead of his
wounds, and one foldier of the Militia died almoß
immediately.
" The inhabitants of Tullamnre (peak of his Ma.
jelly's German troops Rationed there in the moil ho.
nourable terms, and loudly praili their exemplary to.
briety and inoffenfive condud.
se The condua of the German Cavalry on this rte.
cadon was that of regular good foldiers aping undo
the orders of their officers, and it was they that put
an end to the affray. A judicious rneafure was
adopted of canting a patrole of the Militia to ACCOM.
pany the patrole of the Germans doting the night,
and all remained quiet.

At the late Portfclown fair, the fcaffoldiog of the
Rage of the Riding School fell down with a crafh,
and precipitated near 4o people who were then en.
deavouring to gain admittance to the- ground ; one
of whom was fo much hurt, that he died the next
morning ; he proved to be one of the performers,
