following terms :
Between the boars of one and two o'clock on Sunday,
the Lord hlayot visited the house of a publican, named
Griffin, in North King-street, where a considerable number
of into were then drinking. The greater number effected
their escape, but many were taken iuto.costody and lodged'

LIMERICK. OCT. 25.—Tux LATE Ray. WILLIAM D.
Ifositti.—This good man and most exemplary Divine left
his house, at Litford, near this city, on Thursday morning.
for the purpose of proceeding to Shanagolden, on clerical
business; he travelled in a gig, and was not unfortunately,
attended by a perv:int. About three or four miles from
town, some accident happened. which frightened the horse,
and in his rapid course the vehicle was upset and broken,
in which Mr. lioare was found entangled. Careful dispatch
was instantly used in conveying him to his residence, and,
on the injury he had sustained being made known, all tbo
faculty. with the most lendable anxiety for his safety.
repaired to his hottle, in order to administer every aid that;
professional science could supply for his relief avid'
recover•. From the time he was discovered on the road
after the accident he never spoke. When his me—
dical friends reached him he was quite insensible.—
No fracture, not even an external mark appeared ou his
person ; but a copious discharge of blood issued from hie
ears, and a concussion of the brain. with the rupture of a
blood vessel. were apprehended to have been the sad coo.
sequences of the calamitous casualty. During the whole of
Thursday night, Surgeons Thwaites and Gibson remained
iu attendance ; and in the morning of yea:erdsy the pullet
of their lamented friend and patient having become slower
and more r •gular, afforded some faint hopes to console the
numerous sorrowing inquiries who surrounded the house
and crowded the avenne. In the course of the day, how-
ever, these slight symptoms vanished ; and although
Surgeons Thwaites, tiibson, Wilkinson, and Franklin,
Doctors Harding, Campion, arid Lyons, and we might say
almost every physician in our city, were incessant in their
assiduities, yet all were unavailing, as he languished until
7 o'clock this morning, when his valuable life ceased, and
his pure spirit took its flight to those celestial realms
prepared as the blessed reward for the piety and vinare
which adorned and distinguished his earthly career.
The number of persons daily seen in oar streets, in a
state of intoxication, since the reduction, is the duty on
whiskey, excite Is any description.—(Liineriek Chronicle.)

(cot NTY OP wex PoRD.)
We have received the following communication through
a very respectable channel:—
Wuirsnorism.—.' On Tuesday night last, the 21st, a
large party of men assembled on that part of the lands of
Booby Hill, in the pariah of Fethard, Barony of She,-
bourne, held by Patrick Cullen, who dug up and.earried
off about 20 barrels of potatoes that were under distress for
rent. Cullen having abandoned his farm, and taken off
his corn, these potatoes were seized for rent and arrears.
Cullen's father, having come near these oightly legislators,
was compelled to retire.—Ctesar Cul:dough, EN. being ap-
prised of the facts, iimnediatelv ordered nut a division of
Police, but their search prdved fluitless."—(Werford
Herald)
WExvoCD, Oct. 22.—Seldom have the uncertainty and
instability of human affaits been more strikingly exem-
plified than by an event which occurred here on Saturday
night. A number of joyous folks were assembled at the
house of a Mrs. Deriesy, in the Main Street, in order to
celebrate a wedding, and were freely indulged in all the
hintionv and conviviality of the occasion, but, •• such is
the stuff that life is made of," before supper-time one of
the guests was a corpse the father of the bride! The de.
ceased's name was Robert Murphy.
TlTllr CoMPOStTION.--11.ECI AI. VIISTRIII.--The prJ-
visions of this vain stile Act hare been adopted in the
parish of 'fumy contiguous to F.tiniskillen, which is per-
baps the first instance of its being completely cat tied Into
Wert. The parishioners having assembled in Special
Vestry in Trory Church on the Gth instant. in conformity
with the provisions of the Act. F.dward Archtlall, Esq . the
laudlonl of all the lands tithe-free in the parish, was called
to the Chair. After some irregular discussion, the gees.'
tion was put whether a composition for tithes should take
place in bee parish, when almost every individual, with
the exception of the worthy Chairman, gave his vote, un-
der the predominant feelings working in the human mind
—what was most for their advantage ; consequently there
ranged in favour of the Bill all the small Farmers, who
cant their bread by tilling their grounds, and against it
all the occupiers or owners of large tracts, under grass, most
ofivliotn are non-residents in the parish. 'the former,with the
assistance of two votes of their disinterested landlord, who
was the only one entitled to two on their side, had the
m tjority : the latter had th:ee entitled to two votes each.—
This principal question being carried, Mr. Archdall was
appointed Commissioner on the part of the parish, and
Mr. Irwin, of tiara, on the part of the Rector, the
Reverend Mr. Young. In a very short time they were
satisfied, from their inspection of the tithe .payments, sod
from the information they received on the spot what the
average value was ; and accordingly, with the majority at
Vestry approving of the came, fixed at once on the sum to
he paid for the nest '2l years, as a composition of all the
tithes in the parish. 'file other necessary proceedings
have been gone through, and the Bill now takes effect
from the first of November next—a circumstance on which
we congratulate the parish.and which, we have no doubt,
will give mutual satisfaction to all the parties conierned.—

KILKLNNT, OCTOBILR 25.—CONDUCT OP TMI
On Thursday forenoon, two ladies, sisters-in-law, 'both of
delicate and nervous frames, with their infants and Duress,
took a drive of a mile or two into the country. On their
return home, on passing down High Street, a party of the
new Constabulary, who have no ardliority whatever is
the city, stopped the car, and regardless of the feelings
or terrors of the ladies, dragged the driver from his seat.
A crowd naturally-collected, and some of the neighboorlog
shopkeepers expostulated with the officers of the police
on the daring and unmanly conduct of their men. After
having been thus kept prisoners for some time, by armed
• men.-ie the'inftlet-of i crowd, on the High•creet of Kil•

day. The pretence, see understand, was that they bad
a warrant against the driver for an assault long since
alleged to have been committed by bim on she person of the
leader Of 'the party. But even if they bad had jurisdiction
in the city, and a warrant in their packet, such conduct was
perfectly tnexediable, as the drwei could have been as
easily arrested when the ladies had arrived at their own
homes, as in the middle of ;fish Street. On the very same
day on which the above outrage was committed, •scone of
them shot two quiet but valuable watcb dogs in the liberties
of this city, also within the jurisdiction of Sir Wheeler
Cuffe. Denis Bolger, a respectable farmer, ivlio resides on
this side of Tennv Park,was carting hoMe corn on that day.
His dogs were in the field. Some passing police took aim
and killed one of them. The other ran and crouched I,r

killed that dog Aliso. but ,fortunately the boy escalied.—

HARTER V. LLOYD.
This veal an action by the assignees of Messrs. Graatorex,
bankrupts, late calico printers of Manchester, to recover
from the defendant,a Manchester Warehouseman of London,
certain alleged overcharges for commission, &c. on the sae
. of goods transmitted front Nlinchester, for the account of
the bankrupt. before hsnkrnptcy.
The case having been opened by Mr. SCA/MITT (with
wham wets Mr. 81101:0UAM and Mr. CUITTO,‘ witnesses
were called to prose the plaintiff's title, as assignee : and
there appearing to be considerable doubt as to the validity
of the Commission, although no notice bad been given to
dispate it, it was agreed at the snggeetion of the Lotto elilsr
JUSTICE, to refer the (*serials to arbitration, whereby the
somplex disputes between the parties were more likely to be
satisfactorily adj..sted.
A verdict was entered for the plaintiff—Dartages Five
Thonsand Pounds, subject to the award of Mr. D. F.
Jones.

NrCitoLSoN C. BTAUSON.
This was an action by the plaintiffs, who are bankers at
'Leeds. to recover SNiOl. ; the amount of a proshiesery note
lodged with them in 1819, as security for their avances
to Messrs. Field, Royston, and Field,l.who have since be-
. same. bankrupts.
The defence to this action teas, that Mr. Manson had, in
May. 1822, specially endorsed a bill of Messrs. Piel.l and
Co. to the plaintiffs, in lies of his former note. Such a
Lill, so endorsed, was proposed ; bat Mr. Field, one of
the bankrupts, swore that it was indorsed at his reqnest,
and not inreat of the note. Oo the other band, Mr. John
Mattson, a nephew of the defendant, stated that be carried
a letter from his uncle to the bankers. On the day
when the bill was endorsed. warning them that they were
to regard it as redeeming his former liability on the note.
The plaintiffs
,fienied that they ever received such letter,
and tressed the evidence of this witness as wholly false.
The Loan Cuter dinettes i►ft the question and fact for
the lore, who found r verdict for the defendant.
At three o'rlock, an indictment for perjury. "The King
v. Williams," was called on for trial. bat *as postponed at
• the request of the counsel on both sides, as it was likely to
occupy several hours.
The Lonn. Junto:, finding a difficulty in filling
np the time with other (-mutes in which parties were ready,
espresstd %strong spinion against taking cases out of their
order, and intiMa'ed to the bar that he was not hound to
rise at any costerarry
At last a common jury cattle, of no public interest, was
taken, and occupied :lte Court till near six o'clock.
