At the commencement of the week a number of persons
obtained license-, at the Court of Quarter Sessions, before
the recorder, to keep arms. Much anxiety appeared among
the claimants to obtain the requisite permission.
An investigation has been instituted at Dungannon, by
order of Government, into the outrages recently committed
in that neighbourhood.

The determination of the Dublin Repeal Association to
have nothing to do with the Chartists, to return their sub-
scriptions and treat them as persons unworthy of confidence,
has been officially communicated to the London Societies.
The resolution of the Dublin Association was adopted at the
latter without a dissentient voice.

alarm the progress of the present agitation for the Repeal of

as tending to disturb the peace of society, render life and pro-
perty insecure, and ultimately endanger the integrity and
stability of her Majesty's dominions.
" That as loyal subjects of our most gracious Queen, and
deeply concerned for the peace and prosperity of this portion
of her dominions, we are determined to employ all lawful and
constitutional means for the purpose of resisting the attempt
to repeal the Union between this country and Great Britain,
and in the several spheres which Providence has assigned us,
to use our best efforts to put a stop to an agitation carried
on by interested individuals for the dismemberment of the

Empire.
" That a loyal and dutiful address be prepared for presen-
tation to her Majesty, embodying the substance of the fore-
going :resolutions, and that the Marquis of Downshire be
