In one paper of Friday it wag itated,'
ith. f
o Mr. Joy oh.
the Dyblin Morale: Putt, that the het.
alt with 'great
ston, the Lord Lieutenant's Secretary,wss di
the authoritn f
when
ived to'
applause. By the Dublin Papers which have
day, we learn, that Mr. Johnston was about to re.
&ere
the toast was proposed, and that when it was given,
was a strong feeling of disapprobation manifested by ns
hers present. Immediately after he had returned thanks, b.retired, sod as be proceeded between the parallel lines of
by
tables, he bowed to the company on either side ; and as he
paseed,while some applauded. the dissentient. gave increased
force to their hisses. Mr. Johnston maintaiaed a becoming
and gentlemanly rompo,are, and continued to re:uro
his courtesies. When he had nearly reached the
end of the table, Mr. Fitzgerald, a Member of
the Corporation of Butchers, appeared to give fresh vigour
to his hisses, and in such earnestness as could not but
attract Mr. Johnston's attention, who noticed it with
inatked salutation, and having formally bowed, he Pro.
deeded I* his intended course, and left the room. The
well-bred part of the company did Dot intermit in their
plaudits while Mr. Johnston was in the room :
those who appeared not to be under the restrain's
of ceremony persevered in a contrary behaviour.—
A Gentleman, who had formed a part of Mr. Johnston's
spite, expressed • himself with much indignation at the
discourteous .condact then practised, and his observations
burial( been addressed to Mr. Fitzgerald, who bad been
father conspicuous in expressing his dissent to the
compliment which bad been intended from the
Chair, ' some remarks were interchanged -r when, to
the surprise of every person, and probably to that of
the Common Councilman !daml f, the person alluded to,
struck him a blow on the face and left the room. Mr.
Fitzgerald during the whole of this circumstance,. remained
In his seat—and, as *obit as what had occurred had been
generally known, a very strong sensation was manifested.
When the agitation produced by this circumstance had
somewhat abated, Mr. Sheriff Lamprey proposed the health
of the sew Lord Mayor. It was scarcely annoonced when
a storm of hisses burst forth from all parts. Mr. Flemming
could with difficulty obtain an opportunity of expressing
his sentiments.
In the sequel, " The Glorious Memory " was drank with
shouts of applause • and " The Health of the Right Hon. R.
Peel" was given with 3 dines 9, aad followed by Croppice lie
down!
On Thursday, Mr. Fitzgerald applied to the Sitting
Magistrate, at College-street Police Office, ansi. stated the
Assault he had received ; and Mr. Mathews (the gentleman
who made the assault) was written to and desired to erten I
the next day, when Mr. Matlsews attended and was required
to give bail.

Our Knaresboraugh correspondent says, "All trade in
this ton n is st a stand, and the minds of the inhabitunts
are muck upscale(' by the long and unnatural hostility,
which continues coexist between the toaster manufact trees
and the operative weavers. On Monday night last, it was
ruurouted in the town. that a cart from Aberford was
loaded with work from one of the principal house., at the
reduced rate of wages. in consequence of which the road
was watched by a number of men and boys, and on the
approach of the cart, it was placed under arrest, and the
Roods taken out by violence. On Tuesday warrants were
issued against five individuals concerned in this tran.artiar,
and two of them were apprehended and committed to
Wakefield House of Correction. In consequence of this
affair, the numbers attending the meetings on the Castle.
