.PROM TUE DUBLIN JOURNAL CF MONDAY.

The intelligence we have this morning received from
the South shows that notwithstanding all the examples
that have been made by the law, the Rork system has
recommenced with as great virulence as ever. In the
Barony of Clanmaurice, county of Nc.-ry, there has been
some appearance of a renewal of insurrectionary vio-
lence. On Sunday night, the house of a pemioner, of
the name of Harmr, at Ballynageragh, was broken open
and entered by four men, well armed, who robbed the
.house of a jar, containing five quarts of t‘Liskey, and
gave the wife of linnet a violent blow with the butt
end of a blunder buss on the breast, by which she was
severely injured. linnet is an honest character, and
served 27 } ears in the 67th Regiment, Most inflam-
matory papers were found on Monday night, in the
house of James Nunan, at Ballyhoura, by Ensign GOD.-
, DON, commanding a detachment of the 22d Regiment,
•in that village. Nunan is in custody, and since his ar-
rest, a bag of bullets has been found sunk in the earth
at the threshold of his door. At the Spacial Sessions at
Rathkeal, on Thursday, three men were ordered for
transportation fOr insurrectionary proceedings ; Friday
was occupied in trying ten men for the outrage on Mr.
Nunan, who were all found guilty. One fellow,. who
came up to the table to prove an nlibi for one of the
accused, was fully identified by Mr. Nunan as ring-
leader in the acts of barbarity and cruelty committed-on
his person the day of the outrage.

Ink-making is considered a very respectable employ-
ment in China : it is even ranked among the liberal
arts, on account of its utility to the sciences.
1)11%13°1,K:a r. OUT It A c e.—Wednesday night, so early
as between seven and eight o'clock, a young lady re-
turning home alongWestruinster-bridge, was accosted by
a man rather fashionably attired, in a very unceremo-
nious and familiar manner, to which, however, she paid
no attention, observing that the freedom was unautho- '
rized by any previous acqualmance. Finding that his
advances were not received in the manner he wished, he
changed his style, and continued to offend her ears in
language of the most abhorrent and disgusting charac-
ter. Still she affected not to hear him, and pursued her
way, when, at length this fiend in human shape, taking
advantage of her unprotected situation, seized her
roughly with one hand, u hilst he shook from a cane
that he held in the other, a small sword or dirk, with
which he twice stabbed her in the fleshy pan of the arm,
near the shoulder, and made off, leaving the hapless
victim of his brutality prostrate and bleeding profusely.
Two Gentlemen who came up had the terrified girl con-
veyed to a neighbouring surgeon's, when the wounds
were dressed, which, though deep, are by no means
dangerous. Having swallowed some restoratives, and
recovered in some measure from the agitation into
which this unexpected violence had plunged her, she
informed the Gentlemen as to the nature of the assault,
and further stated, that she remembered having been
addressed by the same fellow about three months ago
when walking in the Gieen-paik, in terms equally
shocking and obscene ; but that he did not then proceed
to any other act of violence. She described the barba•
thin as having both the air and idiom of a foreigner,
though his dress is in every respect conformable to the
English fashion. The young Lady's inability to make the
disclosure sooner prevented pursuit, as it would then, no
doubt, be useless, the fellow having- had time to escape.

PRINCE HORENLOHE NOT WANTED.-This illustrious
miracle-monger will derive no additional reputation
from the Axminster case, mentioned in our last; the fair
sufferer has recovered without him. The fact was as
we stated. The young Lady, Miss Eames, was sud-
denly deprived of speech by the terror excited from the
assertion, made in jest by her companion, that a spider
was crawling upon her. A loud and instantaneous
scream ensued, which was immediately followed by a
total cessation of the faculty of speech for four months.
It is now about three weeks since Miss Eames recovered.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

-aim-
MANSION-HOUSE.

It will be recollected that some months ago, two parcels, contain-
ing between .C7OOO and seBooo, partly the property of the banking-
house of-Taylor and Lloyd, of Bismingham, and partly of that of
Sir John Esdaile, were stolen out of the Exeter Subscription coach,
in the yard of the Swan with Two Necks, in Lad-lane. At
Lancaster, two men, who were suspected of having been concerned
in the robbery, were soon afterwards apprehended, and tried. They
were acquitted of the robbery, but were held to bail, for the misde-
meanour of passing some of the notes contained in one of the parcels,
knowing them to have been stolen. Previously to the apprehension
of these men, a person was examined at the Mansion-house on the
charge of participating in the robbery. The Loan MAroa, how-
ever, had not sufficient evidence before him, although what was
stated on the occasion threw a strong degree of suspiclrm upon the
prisoner, to justify his committal. An elderly man appeared at the
Justice-room when that charge was made, for the purpose of bear-
ing testimony to the integrity of the prisoner, and there is sonic
ground for supposing that he could have also spoken from his own
knowledge of the two men who were tried at Lancaster.
Mr. Brown, the Marshal, yesterday told the person who has
shewn this anxiety about the suspected malt, that his presence was
necessary at the Justice-room, in order to clear up a slight degree of
suspicion which attached to himself regarding the above-mentioned
robbery. The defendant appeared without the least embarrassment
to answer any charge.
Mr. Brown then produced a five-pound note, which he said was
one of those which bad been stolen out of the Kxeter coach on the
occasion .iiuded to, and was offered at the shop of Messrs. Donovan
and Co. Irish linen-dealers, ItloomsLury-square, by a man whose
acquaintance with the defendant bad been ascertained under cir-
cumstances of a very unfavourable nature.
The Loan Mayon then called upon the defendant to explain the
circumstance of his having waited for and been found in company
with the men who had acted in so suspicious a manner with respect
to the stolen note? _ .

..-.-.. ..... -
The defendant declared that he was quite ignorant of the subject
just spoken of. All he knew was, that the man they talked about
was a very respectable person, with whom he had bargained for a
pony, and whom he had appointed to meet at the public-hcuse in
Oxford-street. IL: knew nothing about the notes.
Mr. Ilostatn—As you know this man to be respectable, of course
you know where he lives, and what he is?
Defendant—No, I don't. lie appeared very respectable.
Here the LORD MAYOR and Mr. HoarsAt consulted : and in the
meantime the defendant spontaneously said—" Some notes have
passed through my hands that were paid to me by a respectable
publican in Barbican. It is said that they were stolen, and they re-
fuse to pay me the amount. But I'll set the matter at rest by sang
for the amount."

The Loan M %TOR put the note into the 'Marshal's cuqudy,
permitted the ddentl.att to leave the Justice-roJni.

GUILDHALL

CHARGE or ARSON.—Anthony Ifogesoft, the black fencing maste:
and pugilist, whose previous examination on the charge of setting
Are to the premises in the court at No. 76, Fleet-street, appeared in
the STA* of 'Wednesday, was again brought up yesterday, befure
the sitting Magistrate, Mr. Alderman BIRCH..
Several witnesses were examined at much length; and detailed
circumstances of suspicion against the prisoner. At the conclusion of
the evidence, the prisoner was about entering into a vehement com-
plaint of the injuries and annoyances he was perpetually suffering,
when he was warned by the Alderman of the danger of making any
defence in the present stage of the business ; and a Solicitor, who
happened to be in attendance, joining in this advice, Rogeson de-
sisted, without having made either acknowledgment or denial of the
offense laid to his charge, and was committed for trial fur the capital
offence, under the Statute 4:5d Geo. 111. cap. 58.
