A Row IN DUBLIN THEATRE.—On Thursday night
the performances at the theatre in Dublin were honoured
by the presence of the Earl and Countess of Clarendon.
The theatre was crowded to suffocation ; not a seat was
unoccupied in box, pit, or gallery, and numbers left who
were unable to procure even standing-room. Their Excel-
lencies, on their entrance, were greeted with unanimous
plaudits; but, as the performances proceeded, there was
considerable interruption, caused by cries of " No coercion,"
from a knot of "sympathizers" in the upper regions, in-
termingled with a few faint hisses for the Viceroy, which
were speedily drowned by counter-cheers from all parts
of the house. The Premier was not so fortunate, his
name having evoked a storm of disapprobation, which was
followed by a lonely cheer for Mr. John O'Connell, and a
somewhat *warmer one for Mr. Smith O'Brien. But the
uproar was not at its height until the national anthem was
commenced, when the manifestations of displeasure were
most unequivocal. For nearly five minutes not a note
could 'he heard ; eventually, however. the storm wore
itself out, and the rest of the evening passed over without
any further serious attempts to mar the evening's amuse-
ment. The play selected was, Much Ado about Nothing.
Mr. and Mrs. Kean sustained respectively the parts of
Benedict and Beatrice.

DREADFUL OCCURRENCE.—On Saturday morning, a
fearful discovery was made at the house of an old dealer
in apparel and stores, Mrs. Yoell, living in St. Mary-
street, Portsmouth. Smoke was observed issuing from
the front window of the house at the above time, which
led to the inmates being summoned, when no answer
being obtained, the house was entered by the neighbours
and uolice, and a most horrifying spectacle presented
itself. On the floor of the bed-room lay the body of Mr.
Henry Yoell, burned to a cinder, and Mrs. Yoell was dis-
covered crouched down in a corner of the same room
insensible from the burns she had received. She was im-
mediately removed to the residence of another son in
Queen-street, Portsea, where, however, death put an end
to her sufferings in a few hours. The frightful catastrophe
is supposed to have originated by the ignition of the bed
furniture in which Mr. Henry Yoell, aged 60, a cripple
and bedridden, was lying, and it is supposed Mrs. Yoell
sustained the injuries by endeavouring to .render assi.t-
once to her son. Mrs. Yoell was tzs years of age. Mr.
Plumy, surgeon, who was called in, is of opinion that
Mrs. Voell was killed by inhaling or swallowing some
suffocating matter in endeavouring to render succour to
her son. Mrs. Yoell had opened a window before she
was over-powered, it is supposed, to call for help to let
out the L,moke.

IRISII ASSIiSSINATION.—In the course of the recent
debate Sir G. Grey read the following letter. It was ad-
dressed to a lady whose husband had been denounced :
"Madam,—As a token of gratitude I write to you these
few lines, apprising you -of your approaching. fate. lam
to inform you that unless Mr. 111`Causlaal becomes a
better landlord in this country, he will share the same
fate as the demon Major Mahon did. There are resolu-
tions made in this country to take down all the tyrants of
landlords; he, Mr. Weansland, is numbered amongst
them, unless he changes, and give a full remittance of all
the arrears, that are due to him, and begin in the new with
his tenants; as to think he is far from the rath of this
country, it. is useless, the Connaught men are determined,
and may perhaps meet him in his own demesne. There
are two appointed for the expedition ; they are to begin
their journey on the 11th instant. I hope you will not suf-
fer yourself to be a widow, the same as Mrs. Mahon. As
to Ross Mahon the cries of the starred and desolated have
reached the head, arid, after shooting him, he is to he
hanged and quartered, unless he quits Ireland. There is
a fluid at present in this country, the subscribers chiefly
in America, for shooting oppressors. I take the liheri.y,
of informing you of the fate of the oppressora."

of the prostration of moral reeling was incidentally stated
by Sir R. Pecl:—" Ile had himself to Zetail exactly simi-
