IRB LAND,

Six additional stipendiary magistrates are appointed for
Ireland. Among them is Mr. French, son of Lord

French, the repeiler.
A requisition is now in course of signature in Ireland,
calling for a public meeting of the landowners, in Dublin,
to petition for the immediate assembling of parliament.
Mr. W. T. Power, who stands charged with defrauding
the National Bank at Clonmel, arrived at that town on
Wednesday, in custody of the police.
The Earl of Lucan, in a letter dated the Ist October,
says,—" I am of opinion that parliament should be as-
sembled at the earliest possible day, which I have already
expressed to her 114;jesty's Government, or, I am con-
vinced, the country is lost."
OUTRAGE.—A horse, the property of John Bridgeman,
Esq., of Rathluba, was shot on Saturday night at Kil-
murry. Mr. Bridgeman bad sent in the morning a load
of corn to Limerick. The horse was on its return home
when the outrage was committed.—Clare Journal.
On Monday, a mob entered Sligo, and took possession
of the bread contracted for the poorhouse, and after a
division, instantly consumed it. They afterwards com-
pelled the bakers of the town to supply them with bread.
The government have resolved to supply biscuits at 10s.
a cwt.

The Cork Examiner states that but for the presence of
the dragoons at the adjourned sessions at Clashmore, in
the county of Waterford, last week, Lord Stuart de Decies
would have been murdered by the people. They threw
stones at his lordship, who was protected by the soldiers,
several of the latter were hurt; they fired on the people,
several of whom were wounded.
Rumours were circulated in Dublin on Thursday, that
the Lord• Lieutenant and the Chief Secretary had resigned,
in consrquence of a refusal by the Prime Minister to
sanction the views of the Irish Executive. There was,
however, no truth in the report, though the Ministry did
dissent from some of the propositions of the Irish Go-
vernment. .

A requisition has been presented to the Bishop of
Derry, signed by the Dean and Archdeacon of Derry, the
Archdeacon of Raphoe, and the great ;majority 01 the
clergy of both dioceses, beseeching his Lordship " to
communicate with the Lord Primate, and to lay before
his Grace their earnest request that be would use the
influence of his high character and station with her
Majesty, imploring her to order a day of national humi-
liation and prayer to God, to acknowledge the divine
hand in this afflictive dispensation, and to implore the
God of all mercies to turn away his wrathful indignation
from us." His Lordship promises to transmit his Grace's
reply as soon as received.
REVOLTISO MURDER.—It pains us to be obliged to
state that the calendar of crime for this county is already
stained with murder. It appears that a bad feeling had
already grown up between Lamb, the murdered man, and
his step-mother and two step•hrothers, relative to that
fertile source of crime in this country—namely, a piece
or patch of land situated in Coldfed, near Christians-
town, about four miles from Dundalk, to which in law
the deceased would appear to have had a prior claim. The
quarrels of the respective parties had assumed such a de-
gree of bitterness, that they summoned each other to
petty sessions. On Monday night, when the deceased
came on the ground in question, and entered a barn, a
shot was heard, and the neighbours, accordingly suspected
something wrong, gave immediate intimation to the po-
lice, who were soon on the alert, and arrested the sus-
pected parties in their own house. The body was dragged
about 60 perches to an adjacent grove where a hole was
discovered, as if prepared for the interment of the victim
of cold-blooded avarice.—Newry Examiner.
POPULAR OUTBREAK.—On Monday, a dense multi-
tude of people flocked into the town of Dungarvon, and
went through the streets brandishing bludgeons and
yelling in the most ferocious manner. In a short time an
attack was made on the bakers' shops, and several of
them were plundered, but others were protected by the
police. There were two companies of infantry, a party
'or dragoons, and a large police force in the town. Mr.
Howley, the stipendiary magistrate, went into the midst
of them, asking what they wanted ? They said work and
wages. They were told they should have both, but all to
no purpose, as they continued to exhibit the same violent
arid outrageous conduct with which they commenced.
The riot act was then read, but demonstrations of de-
fiance and outrage were only the result. A volley of
stones was poured on the military, and when nothing but
extreme measures could stay the frightful and infatuated
mob, the order was given "to fire," tied several were
wounded. In a short space of time not one of the mob
was to be seen in the town. It has now come to this,
and we sincerely deplere the necessity, that those lawless
demonstrations, and those deeds of rapine and outrage,
must be put down with a strong and firm hand. Intel-
ligence bac since reached us, that one of the wounded
men has died. On Tuesday, in consequence of some in-
formation conveyed by Sir It. Musgrave, the merchants
at Yougal stopped their shipments, but they have again
resumed them ; the town is quiet, but the den and for
Indian meal is extraordinary great at all the depots. The
Ceres has arrived with thirty tons, and a e.irgo of Indian
corn is also io port.
