STATE OF TIPPERARY.—We are happy to observe that,
as far as the number of crimes committed and the number
of prisoners to be tried for grave offences, there is some im-
provement in the condition of this unhappy country—the
former amounting to 33, the latter to 44. But we lament
that here our congratlations must cease ; for the character
of the erhne is such as exhibits no moral improvement what-
ever in the disposition or habits of the people. Of the 44
prisoners, eleven stand charged with murder, twelve with
burglary and the plunder of fire-arms, and with female vio-
lation, and highway robbery three or four. Tie learned
judge dwelt with peculiar emphasis on an evil which is at
the bottom of all those outrages—the illegal possession of
fire-arms by the peasantry ; and he expressed a hope—a
hope long indulged by the loyal and industrious, and too
long neglected by successive governments--rthat some legs-
lative remedy for this crying evil would be speedily and ef-
fectually supplied.

CRIMINAL NEGLECT.—The state in which the garrison of
Dublin has been left for many years, with regard to religious
instruction and religious privileges, has been such as to
grieve the friends and delight the enemies of the Established
Church. The question put by Corporal Trim, " Hatb a
negro a soul, your honour ?" might well he asked in the case
we are considering--Rath a soldier a soul ? Ay' and one as
precious in the sight of Him who died for its redemption as
that of the greatest monarch upon earth. And how stands
the matter? While the Roman Catholic has his chapel, and
the Presbyterian his meeting-house, to assemble in, the
soldier of the Established Church is left without the means
of prayer or sacrament. The largest garrison in her Majesty's
dominions does not possess a place for Divine worship for
the majority of its ranks. The regiments quartered at Por-
tobello and the Royal Barracks are marched, on the Sabbath-
day, into the Riding-house—a building desecrated throughout
the week by oaths, by ribaldry, and the clatter of beasts.
There a short service is offered up--the most impressive and
important part of the ritual being omitted—and is succeeded
by a still shorter discourse. Here the soldier can never
kneel to his God—here the sacred elements can never be
offered him for the strengthening and refreshing of his soul.
To call such " Divine service" is a very mockery of the
term ; and that this has been long and deeply felt and la-
mented by many pious officers and soldiers we know to be
the fact.—Dublin Evening Mail.
