DUBLIN. DEC. 29.

Tuefday was very tempefluous during the day and
night. Some injuries, happily of no great moment,
were experienced in and about the city. The great
windost in front of Michan's Church was blown in,
which admitted the wind to a degree of power that
forced out the greater part of the one in an oppofite
direction at ChurchAreet fide. In the College Park
a few trees were likewife broken by the violence of
the weather.

A letter was yellerday received by Major SIR!,
from Carel, which mention that a defperate offender
of the name of &uiEmae, alias Calais", had been ar-
retied, and .was there in gaol. This defperado has for
years eluded judice, and been guilty of many atrocis
ties, as a leader of infurgents. The letter mention-
that a reward of Soot. had been offered for his ap-
prebenfion. He latterly affirmed the name of Gene-
ral Clarke, and from that circumftance, it gave rife
to fevcral rumours at different times in this country,
that the French General was here of the fame name.

A lad of the name of Kane, who had been a ter-
!rant to a refpedable citizen in High-fireet, was com-
mitted to Kilmainham gaol on Tuefday.—He was
arrefted in the country, where it is (aid he had been
fence the 23d of July lall, having decamped from his
matter at that period.
Tuefd-iy, John O'Rourke, brother to the rebel ge-
neral of that name, who was executed Tome time
fine. was apprehended at the boufe of John Wads.
a publican, beyond' Rathcoole, by a party of the New-
cattle Cavalry, commanded by Serjeant WiLsost,
who concluded him to the Cattle, where he under-
went an examination, and from thence was fent to
Kilmainham. O'Rourke kept a public bode at the
Golden Ball, in Thomas•arect, but tied on the night
of the 23d of July.
Develin, another of the proclaimed rebels, and
who belonged to Dwyer's gang, has furrendered to
Mr. Hums.

Merenagh, another, and we believe the laft of the
,gang, has alfo furrendered.
