There is an apple tree in full blossom (the second
growth this season,) in a garden near Ballinacurra.
The personal property of the late Mr. William Murphy,
grazier and cattle saleman, who died of cholera lately in
Dublin, has been sworn under £645,000.

Lord and Lady Stanley, who arrived in Dublin on Sa-
turday, were entertained at a grand dinner party that
evening by the Lord-lieutenant.
An eminent architect, in Dublin, has been engaged to
prepare drawings for a mnrine residence for her Majesty,
on the Irish coast, near Killiney.
The Dublin journals of Saturday announce several ad-
ditional examples of rent reduction by Irish landlords.
In other instances, the proprietors pay the poor-rates for
the tenant.

A house on the property of Lird Portarlington, from
which a p ,rson of the name of Burke had been fleeted,
and which was taken by another person, was burned
down on Wednesday night.
The Dublin Evening Post, of Saturday, contains the
following curious announcement :—" Mr. John O'Con-
nell has announced the commencement of a new Repeal
campaign. We have not room to-day for his manifesto
to the people of Irelend.' "
EMIG.LATION.—There is no cessation of the crowds
hurrying to emigrate. On Friday, two of the lareest
steamers we have, left for Liverpool. crammed actually
with passengers. and there is another to be added to those
ships already plying between the two ports.—Tipperary
Press.

The Limerick Examiner states that the family of Mr.
W. S. O'Brien have received a letter from him, dated at
the Cape of Good linpe, in which he says that the other
convicts and himself enjoy perfect health. He forbears
from adding particulars, being aware that, as a matter of
course, the letter would be opened.
FURTHER OUTRAGE AT CAPPOQUIN.—Between one
and two o'clock, on Thursday morning, the soldier on
guard at the Market-house in Cappoquin, (where there is
a picket cf the 7th Regiment stationed) was attacked by
two men armed with pikes. The attack was so sudden
that the man had not time to load. Fortunately, he par-
ried one assailant's charge, but he was wounded by the
other on the hand : he also received a stab from a pike
on the breast-plate, which, no doubt, saved his life ; and
the guard turning out, the cowardly rebels fled. At the
previous attack we regret to say that two persons lost
their lives.

AN EXAMPLE FOR MAGISTRATES.—In pursuance of
an order from the magistrates, the inspector of St.
Michael's Parish night watch has issued directions to the
men under his charge to remove off the streets, each
night, at nine o'clock, all improper females. The new
regulation came into operation on Sunday evening, when
sixty dissolute cnaracters were conveyed to the station-
house ; on Monday night, fifty-four ; and last night,
forty-seven. It is remarkable that none of thos, con
fined the first night appeared on the flags the following
evenings ; and as this essential regulation is calculated to
promote morality, and protect respectable persons from
annoyance and insult from this profligate class, we trust
the inspector will continue to enforce the order.—

THE DOLLY'S BRAE AFFRAY.—Mr. Beers. the orange
grand-master, whose name has been prominent in con-
nexion with the fatal riot at Dolly's Brae, has published a
letter, from which we take the following extract :
Really, brethren. the case to which I have to call your
attention is so monstrous a violation of the principles of
truth, justice, and loyalty, that I am almost inclined to
believe it utterly impossible for any man of common ho-
nesty, and of loyal disposition towards the throne and
constitution of Great Britain, to feel the slightest degree
of sympathy with a company of vile outlawed assassins,
banded together in a most fiendish and treacherous man-
ner. who dared to interfere with and dictate terms to the
loyal and the brave, who met together, on the 12th of
last July, for the praiseworthy purpose of commemorating
events to which our gracious and beloved Queen owes her
throne, and the British nation its power, and to which
we all, every one of us, protestants, and even Roman
catholics themselves, owe all rights, liberties, and privi-
leges which we enjoy. I ask you could anything be more
monstrous, anything more insulting, anything more auda-
cious than that companies of prowling rebels to the Queen
and the government of the country, should prepare them-
selves for slaughter, armed with what the felon Mitchel
used to call ' the oueen of weapons'—Vl7 , the piho of
Scullabogue memory—with muskets also, and scythes,
and other deadly weapons, and that these murderers, thus
armed to the teeth, should lie in wait, till the orangemen,
who were quietly and inoffensively returning home in
procession, had nearly all passed on, and that then this
body of popish miscreants should fire a murderous volley
on their ranks from behind the ditches and hiding-places,
and that after they were effectually routed, with the loss
of several of their men, by the small band of orangemen
whom they attempted to massacre—that then the fault
should be laid at the door of the orangemen who were tha
assailed, instead of on the ribbonmen, who were the
assailers, because the former had the manliness, and the
courage, and the sturdy protestant spirit, as well as cor-
rect and loyal feeling, to celebrate the mercies of the Lord
to the British nation in time past, and to avow their de-
termination to cherish till death those blood-sealed prin-
ciples of civil and religious liberty which the bravery and
devotion of their fathers won for them, and to deprive
them of which, efforts are being daily made by foes both
to the Queen's throne and the Queen's religion ? * *
No, no, brethren, the cunning schemes of the enemies of
truth and liberty must be exposed and thwarted, and
overcome ; the vile machinations, the atrocious false-
hoods, the flagrant perjuries of all our enemies must be
met with vigour and promptitude, and extermination.
Rebels must not be complimented, sympathised with,
and supported, because they were not allowed to slaughter
the orangemen as they wished, and orangemen must not
be run down, must not be hunted, must not be misrepre-
sented, must not be insulted by popish senators, or by
Jesuitical journals, or by hireling officials, because they
did not quietly surrender life and liberty to the evil-
minded and malignant, as well as dastardly and contemp-
tible ruffians who sought their lives, and whose defeat
and capture are things to be gloried in, and to be thank-
ful for; as, had their efforts been successful, disastrous
would the effects have been on the peace of the whole dis-
trict, and on the security of life and property throughout
the country." On Wednesday, Mr. Rea, the attorney
for the ribbonmen concerned in the Dolly's Brae affair,
applied to the Castlewellan bench of magistrates to pro-
ceed against one of his clients, John Paul. The learned
gentleman, who is a busy Young Irelander, wanted to
make a scene. The repeal papers say he did. The ma-
gistrates refused to entertain his motion, and so it dropped
to the ground.
