Tht Trish Papers received' this morning give a ra-
ther more gratifying account of the state of the sister
kingdom, than we have been lately accustomedlo.
The spirit of insurrection in the South, thoUgb sot
eatinguished, is somewhat
,abated in its violence and
cruelty. The Special Commission at Limerick bas
been further adjourned to the 16th of February; and
it is said that a large quantity of muskets, pistols,
and swords, haVe been delivered up to the Magis-
trates in that County within the last fortnight. The
following list of outrages are from the Malin Journal
of Friday :

Tuesday mcrning, the house of Mr. Swims, of
Greenville, near Macromp, County of Cork, was at-
tacked by a numerous mounted party. Resistance
was made, and many shots were exchanged. One of
the banditti was killed, and several wounded, and
they were gallantly repulsed.
Friday night thirty houses in the neighbourhood.
of Mount Prospect; County of Limerick, were searched
for arms and money. They received from one to two.
pounds in each, and also obtained two muskets. A
respectable farmer on the lands of Rabeen was very
cruelly beaten.
Monday night, Mr. CARE* O'G RAM', with a party
lathe 943 d, from Bruff, scoured the country between
Lotighgur and Hubertstowu. He intercepted a party
of the marauders, and secured the leader, a fellow
of the name of Cunningham, who was armed with a
blunderbuss, and had a Player-book in his pocket:
Mr. o'. RADY secured several stand of arms, and
took some prisoners. Cunningham, with P. Oliver,
M. Day. and E. Connelly, were committed by this
active Mdgistrate, for be;ng with a party in arms at
night. In Oliver's house three stand of arms were found.
Monday night, an armed party 4300 called at the
house of Mr. JAktall BUSHEL, at Ballyvaughan, near
Clonmel, where they left orders that he should not
demand more than 40s. per acre for his ground, or to
mark the consequences: from thence they proceeded
to several of his tenants, commanding them not to
pay more ; scarcely a house between Ballyvaughan
and the mountain they did not visit on the same night,
giving similar notices~
A few nights ago, threatening notices were posted
on houses in the Parish of Rathiney, against tenants
who lately took lands in that and other parishes in
the Barony of Clanwilliani ; and DENIS DWYER, of
Raibliney, Proctor to the Very Rev. Dean BAGWELL,
received the following notice:
.4 Sta,—We, the underneath persons, take an opportu-
nity of writing these few lines to you, hoping you will take
notice of them; if -not, you will rue it as an enemy, as you may
he called. We hope you will give up all claims relative to the
taking of ground and tithes in the parish of Kilmilkin, and in all'
places whatsoever, as we should not wish to visit you without
serving you with notice; and you may depend on our word, if
you were to be guarded by all the peelers and soldiers in the
county, we will go to you, if you do not give up the aforesaid
claims to all persons concerned, as soon as you receive this letter;
or if not, receive the ceremonies and rites of the church, and oc-
cupy your time diurnally in prayer and fasting; and also have
your burial plum settled; but as for the latter we believe you
need not trouble yourself, as you may be positively assured we
will burn usd serve you as the unhappy victims near Fetbard
Isere served.—We remain your inveterate Mends,
" Capt. ROCK, Col. STA lt, and Men.
a P.& We hope you will not put us to the disagreeable neces-
sity of pursuing the present law ; or it you do, you will be the vic-
tim, as there're 8009 men of us sworn by the above commanders.
" To Denis Dwyer, proctor, Doneskeagh.'

PROM THE CLONAEL ADVERTISER OF WEDNESDAY.

Wednesday night last a party of mounted gun-I
mongers, 'Lc. traversed the country between Clontneli
and Cashel, s here they gave notices to the farmers,
chargiog them not to pay more tithes than 2s. an acre
for tilled or untilled ground, till they should receive
further notice. The night following, a similar party
appeared in the neighbourhood of Lewes-green,
joined by numbers from the New In side, who acted
'in a similar manner. A few nights previously they
took arms from the house of Mr. DENIS BATES,

living near Clerihan, as well as from a few others.
They take the farmers horses, in almost every in-
stance, to mount their parties; which horses are gene-
rally found the following morning, on the roads,
greatly fatigued and injured from excessive riding.
Friday night, five robbers descended the chimney
of John Quirk, dairy-man, on the lands of Mocklers-
town, by means of a straw rope ; getting to his bed-
side, they demanded his money and arms, and threat-
ened to roast him if he did not at once comply; he
got up and gave them what money he had, which
were two sovereigns and three five-penny pieces; they
then beat him and his wife severely—and being able,
to extort no more in cash, took some bread and
butter, a bottle of brandy, two suits of clothes, and a
parcel of linen, with which they made off.
Friday night, the house of James 13yrne, a respect-
able farmer, near Killoisty, was visited in search of
arms—but this not satisfying them, one of them pro-
ceeded to set fire to the thatch of the house ; on this,
however, he was charged by the people from the
house, one of whom stabbed him in the back with a
pitchfork, and also struck him a blow on the head—
and the assailant party was pursued some distance,
till two shot from them obliged the people from the
house to return, they having no arms.
Friday last a man of the name of Pat. Ryan was,
shot dead near Templemore by a police constable, in
endeavouring to arrest him for a rescue. An Inquest
has been held on the body of the deceased, and we
have been informed the verdict was in substance—
" That deceased was shot before any arrest was made."

Sunday night an armed party attacked the house
'of an industrious farmer of the name of DARBY
GUIRY, tenant of Mr. HOBSON, on the lands of Cole-
man, in search of arms: they broke his windows,
door, Scc. and attempted to set fire to his house, in
consequence of resistance shewn by him, and in which
one of the assailant party was wounded by a pitchfork,
supposed mortally; they, however, took off two of
GUIRY'S horses, which have not since been heard of.
