THE CASTLE ADVISER.—Mr. Corballis, Q.C., is ap-
pointed legal adviser to the Castle. Mr. M`Donagh is re-
ported as likely, to be the Crown prosecutor, in the place
of Mr. Corballis.

Two. SOLDIERS of the 31st Regiment were subjected,
on Wednesday last, to an outrage from a body of labourers

THE UNDER-SECRETARY.—The office of Under-
Secretary to the Castle is going a begging, as the homely
Phrase has it. Mr. Villiers Stuart has absolutely refused
the situation, after having been all but gazetted. He is
indisposed just now—that is, as we are informed, he is
indisposed to break up his present householdjor one he
may have to resign before Patrick's day next!!
A FEMALE ADVOCATE.—Mrs. Catherine Winter, who
figured recently as a lecturer, &c.. and who is quite fami-
liar with the Dublin Court of Queen's Bench, appeared
before the judges on Thursday, to move the court that an
attorney, Mr. John Wolfe, be struck off the rolls for per-
jury. The application failed in consequence of a legal
flaw, and, after a display of unequalled volubility, the
lady had to retire.
FRIGHTFUL AGRARIAN OUTRAGE.—A dreadful murder

at a place called Shureen, While sitting at his own fire-
side along with neighbours, three ruffians, fully armed,

fired together at Farrell, who instantly fell a corpse at
their feet.

THE CARLOW ELECTION. —On Monday, last week,
the nomination of candidates took place at Carlow. After
the usual preliminaries, Mr. O'Meara, M.D., rose to
propose the re-election of Mr. Sadleir, and was seconded
by Mr. Walsh, of Graig. Samuel Ileughton, Esq., pro-
Posed Mr. Alexander, and Captai❑ H. Carey seconded
the nomination. The candidates having addressed the
meeting, the Sheriff declared the show of hands to be in
favour of Mr. Sadleir. A poll was demanded on behalf of
Mr. Alexander, which took place on Wednesday. At
the close the numbers were :—Alexander

ROMISH VINDICTIVENESS.--A truly Irish crime has
been perpetrated at Crevelea, in the county of Sligo.
Ironworks have been established there by a Scotch com-
pany ; and Mr. Buchan, the manager, at his own expense,
erected a neat little church for the use of the Protestants
employed at the works. It is said that the building had
become offensive to a neighbouring Romanist priest, be-
cause some of his congregation had attended the services
held in it. So the tale runs, and it may be untrue ; but
there is no doubt about this fact, the little church was set
on fire during the night, and burnt to the ground. It
Was intended to destroy other buildings adjacent, for next
day a coal was found in a thatch, but it had not taken
effect.

THE Louth Advertiser, of Saturday last. gives a glowing
account of the reception of two young ladies to the profes-
sion of nuns at the Convent of St. Clare, in Newry. The
details of the event are related in the most eloquent and
captivating language :—" Delicious harmony floated
through the chapel—wax-lights blazed on the altar and
from the candelabra—the perfume of incense and flowers
excited the itnagination into an almost overwhelming
sense of piety and devotion : the gorgeous vestments of his
lordship and the clergy added to the effect and solemnity
of the ceremony : while the low, soft tones of the sisters,
as they recited the Te Donn Laudamns, and welcomed
with that fervour which religion can only inspire, these
newly-professed nuns, completed a tableaux (sic) unsur-
passed by anything we have ever witnessed. Several of
the congregation were affected even to tears, and there
were none who appeared insensible to the tendency of the
ceremony to inspire in the hearts of the most callous
holy and devotional feelings."
CONSPIRACY BY Two SOLDIERS TO STEAL A YOUNG
LADY.—At the Belfast Police-court, James Roland and
John Underwood, belonging to the 46th Regiment, at
present stationed in that town, were charged with having
conspired to take away Eleanor Hazleton, of Donegal-
street, Belfast. The young lady having formed an attach-
ment to the prisoner Roland, who is a drummer in the
regiment, and about 22 years of age, disappeared one
evening about a fortnight ago. Suspicion fell upon Ro-
land and Underwood, who are brothers-in-law, that they
had persuaded her to leave home, and afterwards kept her
concealed in the town in some place unknown ; and the
consequence was, that Col. Garrett, of the 46th Regt., was
made acquainted with all the circumstances. Roland was
Placed under arrest, and Underwood and his wife were
arrested last week on a charge of conspiracy to " steal"
the young woman, and were forthwith lodged in the
Police-office. Underwood and his wife alleged they knew
nothing about the escape and flight of the young woman ;
and, after a few days, Underwood's wife was discharged,
but her husband has been kept in prison up to the present
time, It transpired that an attempt bad been made, be-
fore the arrest of the parties, to have Roland and, the young

DISRAELI.—There is no truth whatever in the re-
port that Mr. Disraeli is about to go abroad for two years.
The right hon. gentleman was never in better health, and
had never less intention of absenting himself from his
Parliamentary duties.

MR. SADLEIR'S SUCCESSOR.—The Dublin Evening
Herald says :—" Mr. Alexander, who has just been re-
turned, will, we have no doubt, make a useful, zealous,
and incorruptible member. His activity, intelligence, and
integrity are well known in Carlow, and we hail as an ex-
cellent augury of his future firmness, the frankness and
the pluck which disdained to modify or disguise his prin-
ciples on the hustings."
THE EARL OF OXFORD AND MORTIMER, died at his
seat Eywood, near Kington, Herefordshire, on Wednes-

succeeded his father, as sixth Earl, in January, 1848 ;
married, the 17th of January, 1831, Miss Eliza Nugent,
daughter of Lord Westmeath, by whom he leaves no
issue. The title, therefore, becomes extinct.
