CONTINUED OUTRAGES.-TWO MURDF.ES.
FROM THE DUBLIN JOURNAL OF INT.DNESDAY.

Friday night last, about twelve o'clock, a farm-
house on the lands of Bally-Ellis, near Doneraile, the
property of C. Crone, Esq. was maliciously set on
fire, and totally consumed. On the same might,
cabin on the lands of Bally-Ellis, within a mile of
Buttevant. was burned, either accidentally by its in-
mates,
or maliciously by Whiteboys. The cabin has'
been for many years inhabited by an unfortunate
female and her illegitimate children.
In the County of Kerry, through the exertions of
the Rev. Messrs. Collins and O'Leary, the Coadjutor
Priests of Castle bland, 23 stand of arms have been
returned to the Magistracy, and between 40 and 30
Whiteboys have taken the oath of allegiance. Near
Killarney, on-Sunday week, a shocking murder was
perpetrated. As Thomas Fitzgerald was standing in
conversation with another person, a fellow named
Thomas Gordon, came treacherously behind him, and
in revenge for some late ir.jury, as we are informed,
sty uck him a violent blow on the head, which frac-
tured his skull, and killed him on the spot.
In the County of Limerick, during last week,, the
banditti committed the following outrages:—Flogged
nine men (six at Coolruss, two at Duhoro, and one
at Cappenahane) ; burned one house at Ballyroe ;
broke into another at Coolruss; killed Live sheep—
(three at Green-hill, and two at Konocklong) and
shot two cows and one heifer at Coolruss. To the
shove we have to add a murder. A man named
O'Neal, who was expected to prosecute some offenders
at the Assizes, was murdered on Saturday night; his
body was found under a heap of stones at Cappa, and
brought into Rathkeale on Sunday. The post-boy
conveying the mails fi om Rathkeale to Shannagolden,
was attacked by four armed men on. Saturday morn-
' ing on the road near Stoaev :11e demesne, who dragged
him off his horse and robbed him of the mails.

knives us pleasure to state that Miss'Goold, the
young Lady who was carried off from her friends by
Browne, was on Saturday night retaken by a party
of the Rifle Brigade, commanded by Lieutenant Ro-
binson, from a house where she lay concealed. She
was conveyed to Abbeyfeale on Sunday, and there,
given up to her friends. Miss Goold mentioned to
Lieutenant Robinson, that a few nights ago, while
Colonel Norcott and a party were in search of her,
she was within two fields of them, concealed in al
ditch, naked, and guarded by a man, who threatened
to shoot her if she gave any alarm. Lieutenant Ro-
binson delicately inquired ()flier hew she was treated
by Browne? and she told him that he offered no vio-
lence to her person ; but that she was greatly ex-
hausted from being continually carried about by him
from place to place, living on bread and tea, and
never sleeping a second might in the same house;
and that on Friday Browne became so alarmed, from
the activity of the search after her, that he took his
leave of her for ever. Three men were arrested on
suspicion of being concerned in this affair, on Sunday
morning, by Godfrey, Massy, and Lieutenant Piercy,
of the Newcastle Police, who were out patrolling the
mountainous district.

We regret to learn, that the nocturnal marauders
have begun to extend their depredations in the county
of Kilkenny.. On Sunday night, about one o'clock, a
party of armed insurgents visited the village of Cur-
raghmartin, on the estate of Mr. Flood, of Flood-hall,
lying a little to the left of the road leading to Carrick,
between Granny Castle and Aglish, and about four
miles from Waterford, where they searched several
houses for arms, and procured five guns. At one of
the houses, where the owner was unwell, they had
the delicacy to cause a neighbour to rap at the door,'
to prevent alarm to the sick man, but insisted on get-,
tin 4 his gun from his wife.
Several other outrages are detailed as having been
committed in the counties of Kilkenny, Tipperary,
Mayo, and Waterford.
At the Limerick Maize., on Thursday week, Patrick Loris
Ma 13,14 Michael Madigan, and linger liPliakars, were tried for
the murder of Patrick Murphy, on the ad of December last.
M'Mahon was acquitted. The three former were found guilty.
When serilence of death was passed upon them, and they were re-
moved from the dock, Lewis exclaimed 'To the d-1 we pitch:2lr.

Yesterday sennight, about seven o'clock, a c,

but which was fortunately extinguished •in a short
time; not, however, before considerable damage Ka;
done. From the information we have obtained the:,
is every reason to believe it was maliciously set oil
fire. Such is the alarm in the. neighbourhood that
patrols are appointed every night.
Tuesday evening, between seven and eight o'clock,
a man called at the house of Mr. Ganallatp, surgeon,
of Leiston, to solicit alms, and whilst the servant
gone to her master., the villain contrived to get tip
stairs, where he set fire to one of the beds. An all:
was presently given, but the man made his escai,z,

Tuesday evening, between seven and eight o'clock,
a fire broke out on the premises of Mr. Wretctir, f,i

.Thursday evening, about seven o'clock, a moat

Mr. BYLES, at the Upper Hai [louse, which, for ta-
pidi:y of destruction, has not been exceeded by any
fires in this County. It began in a spacicus barn,
which contained about eighteen coombs of barley.
The devouring element almoq instantaneously
tended its ravages• to a stack rt wheat of about eighty
coombs, which, with the bat u, was entirely consu axe.
Within ten yards was another large stack of t, heat,

but most providentially,at the instant of the flue bie..k.
ing out, a violent shower came on, and the e ird
veered to the west : this, with the prompt arrival
the Town engines, and the great exertions cf the per.
sons present, preserved the stacks and stables ti oni
sharing the same fate. The fire was, without doubt,
maliciously occasioned, and the mis..reant, whoeve:
he was, must have been esti emely quick in the ex:-
cation of his vile purpose, as a fat ming man had
off threshing in the barn only hall an hour, and a ..er.

Tuesday morning, a brand,with a bundle of matcl.ec,
were found in a stack of clover-stover on Mr.
RoE's premises, in St. Clement. The malicious L!,:,i,,2n
was, however, frustrated, for the brand WAS either t.-.)

In consequence of threatening letters, addressed to
several persons in this town and neighbourhood, the
precautionary step of having a nightly watch has
been resorted to by some of them.
