RAMCGATE, OCT. 2.l.—About eight o'clock this morning, sa
of his Majesty's Messengers arrived here from Hanover kr
London, with " highly important" dispatches for the Fonts
Office. He left Hanover on Wednesday, the 17th, and arrisd
at Calais on Sunday afternoon, the 21st inst. None of themes.

even supposing the wind should be fair; and as theorem, ;f
the Messenger's mis,ion had been impressed on him, he eves'
an open boat, with seven men, to convey him across the Claud.
This boat started front the harbour of Calais about fur o'ckel
on Sunday afternoon, and made towards Dover. The weather
was then fine, and the sea steady, though somewhat contrary;
but after being out at sea about two hours there came or

VOTES OF THANKS.
Sir G. WHITFORD rose, and in a handsome speech
proposed the thanks of the Corporation to Sir A. B.
n r for his highly dignified conduct, his hos-
var.•
; his conciliating manners, &c. as Lord Mayor
Puittblet'ity, of Dublin, for his year of office—a year
in which more particular honour was paid to Ireland,
and the city of Dublin, than history could record, by
the kind conciliatory visit of his Majesty George IV.
aild in which space the late Lord Mayor had gained
approval of his Sovereign, and the
the rewarding
.iidarde of all his fellow-citizens, for the prudent
t •
a.,cf gentlemanlike conduct he had followed.
Sir \.IC. BRADY seconded the motion, which was
passed unanimously.
A Committee was then moved for, that an Address
soot„ be prepared suitable to the merits of the wor-
thy Baronet while in office, accompanied by a piece
a plate, value One Hundred Guineas, with a suitable
inscription.
Votes of Thanks were then passed unanimously to
the late High Sheriffs, Sir G.Whitford, and Sir N.V.
Brady; also to Geo. Archer, Esq. late Sub-Sheriff.
ENTEItTAINMENT OF 1118 MAJESTY.
On the motion of Mr. SEMPLE, 300 guineas were
voted to Air. Hay, for his unwi or. ed labours in for-
warding t erecting of the buildin ; alluded to, and
on the motion of Sir E. !!TANI.EY, 200 guineas were
rqed to Mr. Semple, junior, for his exertions on the
same occasion.
Mr.SuTTER now brought forward a motion, which,
ira said, he was induced to propose, as certain rumours
had gone abroad, assertinr, that within theilast six
tnonihs thepaitics of the Corporation had been much
changed. lie would therefore propose, in the hope
that the Resolution would be black-beaned—" That
tanks be returned to the Mansion-llouse Committee,
for their/militia conduct during the recent occasion."
Mr. J. T. Svxsorr trusted that that Resolution
would not be seconded.
Mr. \Vitus said, societies might exist independent
of politics; for instance, Masonry had flourished for
ages, by excluding religious or political discussion.
Mr. SUTTER—" I shall persevere in pressing the
R.:solution, for the sole purpose of ascertaining the
present sentiments of the Corporation. I stand upon
boa' ground, and I fear not; it is nut to be endured,
that if the Lord Mayor should- come forward with a
toast, he should be dragooned by the Newspapers.
Th! Committee has gone beyond its duty."
Sir E. STANLEY—" The Committee, I contend for
it, has not stept beyond its duty, which was to make
arrangements for the reception of his Majesty—for
that purpose union was necessary, and it was their
business to bury in oblivion all those dissentions and
party questions, which had agitated the country so
lore;. Loyalty and insult are not necessary compa-
nions ; 1 have no objection to stand or fall in public
estimation with the Committee. Thus explained—
so far from deserving censure, the Committee have
done an act which has been honoured with the King's
approbation, and that of their fellow-citizens; his
Majesty could have been, and was entertained, with-
out holding forth the triumph of situation. In fol-
lowing that line of conduct, I have never deviated
from those principles by which I have always been,
attained. We have laboured to support our station
is society without degradation, and without unneces-
sary triUmph."
ilr. WILLIS said, that the union that existed in
fis country was the salvation of it, and it laid the
Icondation of much more future happiness ; it re-
minded him of the old fable in iesop, of the bundle
of sticks untied, tied and clubbed together they
mid nt be broken. _

MLNlontit suti disapproved of the conduct of those
Gatemen who now bring forward such a motion,
for they had approved at one time of a hat they now
ciukain. lie said they had compromised nothing—
they ha,s only thrown away bad passions—(Applause).
Mr. SEMPLE wished that the motion might be mo-
dified., i (1. not like a motion of thanks, he ob-

he
vas

strred, toi the Furpoe directly expressed thus—
"that it should be black-beaned ;” it is unfair and
ungentleinan ike.
kr. Sur un—" I hope the speaker does not at-
tiihnte to rue any departure lions the conduct of a
Gentleman."
Mr. SEMPLE disclaimed any such intent, and said,
that the left-handed motion now before the House
vas intended to afford a measure by a division, of the
change of political sentiment in the Corporation; but
the object must fail; for as the Committee abstained
from political actions, all that the division can afford
vill be a measure of a change of manner. Some
Members may pant for a relapse into comparative
arharity. He trusted their nuniber was but small,
that they would soon perceive they had no cause to
rest upon, and soon imbibe the plain and common-
tensical loyalty which unquestionably governs the
majority of the Corporation.
Some discussion took place respecting the necessity
of introducing Sir A. 13. King's name into the vote of
Lanks to the Mansion house Committee.
'A ballot took place respecting the introduction,
Vten there appeared for it, 47—Against it, 32—Ma-
jotity for the introduction, 15.
Mr. SUTTER persisted in proceeding to a ballot on
I.3nriginal proposition, in order to decide the goes-
*Whether the Cop.,: anion h A d , or had not, changed
their political line of conduct? He censured and
‘tisarovied the conduct of the Committee, who, he
"jr came to the adoption of Resolutions contrary
LO the spirit and principles of the Corporation. He
said that he would fearlessfy abide a ballot, because
le was certain that they had not changed their °pi-
llions: if they had, he would soon know it.
Mr. JOSEPH HENRY Moose said, that his Majesty
vas not only King of the Protestants, but also of the
Catholics, and conceived that the object (lithe mover
4.3% to pass a censure on the late Lord Mayor.
The question wa; now loudly called for, and was
accordingly put. The numbers were :—For the vote
of Illa• 116 to Sir A. B. King and the Mansion House
Committee, 50—Against it, 40—Majority far the vote
of thanks, 10—((;roat upplausc).
At titue o'clock, the LOAD MAYOu dissolved 1110.

Assembly, when Sir A. B. Ktwo returned thanks for
the manner in which his conduct had been aproved
of. Having been elected, under peculiar circum-
stances, by that House, it afforded him pa, ticular
gratification, on his retirement from the arduous du-
ties of his office, to have received the unanimous ap-
probation of the body who elected him. It was also
a source of satisfaction and p•ide, to find that his
brethren of the Board, who did not participate in
that election, now came forward unanimously to
join in the compliment so handsomely voted him this
day. " I have," said Sir Abraham King, " to return
thanks to the Gentleman who brought under discus-
sion my political conduct as Chairman of the Man-
sion House Committee, as the result of it has proved
that the good sense and good feeling of this House
is in perfect unison with his Majesty's most gracious
recommendation, to forbear and conciliate, and which
happy moderation and conciliation, I trust, will con-
tinue for ever."

DUBLIN, OCTOBER 22.
Strong detachments of troops have been marched
to Limerick and the adjoining disturbed districts;
but as they have scarcely yet had time to operate in
a combined plan, outrages and robberies for arms
still continue. Major Warburton arrived in town on
Saturday to give information to the Government as
to the nature of the disturbances, and the best means
of restoring order. By the Arms Act, any Magis-
trate or High Constable can search suspected dwell-
ings for fire-arms and seize them, if the registry be
not produced. It is probable then, that a general and
minute search of the houses of the peasantry will take
place, and to prevent any large number of the ban-
ditti from assembling at one time, it is likely that the
country will be scoured nightly by patroles of horse
and foot, but this mode of proceeding, in the mean-
time indispensable, would rather suppress, than era-
dicate the evil, which now bears a frightful aspect.
It is almost impossible to stay the hand of the
assassin, when nearly the wliole population counte-
nance his atrocious deeds. While Mr. Going's corpse
was carried to the grave, the peasantry, everywhere
as it passed, expressed satisfaction; and when Mr.
Spading was killed they seemed to be aware of the
event for miles round, and gave a shout when they
heard the report of the muskets. In this state of
moral depravity we find the people of the disturbed
parts of the County of Limerick, and what check to
murder and outrage can be proposed, immediately,
but coercion of the most prompt and vigorous kind?
'fuesday night last, a party of armed men attacked
the dwelling-house of Mayn, a farm belonging to
Major Sullivan, and succeeded in stripping a quan-
tity of lead from off the roof, evidently for the pur-
pose of making balls.
The house of Mrs. Fitzgerald, at Ballenleina, and
several others in the same neighbourhood, were
robbed, on Wednesday night, of fire-arms. At Mrs.
Fitzgei ald's, the villains obtained two cases of pistols,
two blunderbusses, and two muskets.
A man of the name of Anglim, who was a witness
at the last Assizes in the case relating to Newcastle,
got a situation last week in a merchant's store in
Limerick, through the intervention of a friend, who
did not wish him to return to the country, and by the
particular desire of the man himself. He remained in
the employment two days, and having gone at meal
hours the third, has not since been heard of : he did
not receive or call for his wages.
A few nights since, the house of George Green,
Esq. near Dungarvon, was, in his absence, attacked
and robbed, notwithstanding a valiant defence made
by Green's brother, in which that Gentleman was
badly wounded.
A notice,_ signed ,4 Captain Rock," was posted on
the door of John Ambrose, near Newcastle, tenant
to Mr. Morony, threatening him with destruction if
he did not surrender the farm which he had the pre-
sumption to lease, after a tenant who was ejected bad
abandoned it.

The Charleville Yeomanry are now on permanent
duty, in consequence of the outrages which occur
nightly in that neighbourhood.
The Adare Yeomanry Corps, which was most dis-
tingui,hed during the Rebellion, is also to be placed
on duty. Their Captain, Richard Smyth, Esq. has
liberally offered £5O for the apprehension of the mur-
derers of Walsh,who wasassassinated on Monday night.
A Yeomanry Corps is about to be established at
Hospital, in the county of Limerick.
Major-General Sir John Lambert, K.C.B. has been
directed to fix his head-quarters at Newcastle, in the
county of Limerick, and to draw thither as many
troops as he shall think necessary to put a total stop
to the outrages. His arrival is hourly expected.
The 43d are reported to be on their march to Li-
merick, and it is also stated, that the 11th and 49th
Regiments are ordered for the Limerick district.
The 42d Highlanders, which moved from Kilkenny
to Waterford, are on their march to Limerick, and
were to arrive there on Sunday (yesterday).

. •
Thursday, twenty-four of the 40th Regiment, un-
der Lieutenant Hibbert, and twenty of the same corps
under Lieutenant Quaid, the former from Birr, the
latter from Roscrea, arrived in Limerick, on a route
to Newcastle.

Saturday, three troops of the gd Light Dragoons
arrived in Limerick garrison firm Cahir, to await
the commands of Sir John Lambert. Sunday, a troop
of the same regiment arrived at Newcastle, from
Ciczneen. Saturday, Commissary Gelston left Li-
merick, to make arrangements for the cavalry or-
dered to be stationed at Newcastle, and the disturbed
districts of the county of Limerick.

COUNTY OF KILDARE.
Colonel Bruen having received information that al
tenant of the namt, of Nowlan intended to carry off
his crops, &c. had them diArained, and one man was
left in care of them for some days, during which time
several persons went on the lands asking questions
relative to tht. seizure, &c. On the night before the
outrage mentioned, while the keeper was going round
the laud, he was attacked by five men, armed with
guns, swords, and pitchf►rks, who laid hold of him,
dragged Lir► into Nowlan's house, threiv a quilt over
his head, and tied him with ropes, so as to cut his
wrists. They said they would bind Nowlan, and
went through a ceremony to deceive the keeper—
they left guard on him from ten o'clock at night
until half-past seven in the morning, during which
time they carried off a quantity of oats, wheat, &c.
as also horses, carts, and household furniture. On
Nowlan being informed that the party had gone away,
he stood up without any assistance and untied the poor
keeper, who was frighteued almost to death.
