were closed. two Oestierava connected with the Morn-
lag Pipers sent in respectfel regeests to be admitted
to note the proceedings of one of the meat singular
cases which has for some time orenpied Magisterial
atiention in this metropolis, An acetates of the pro-
gress of the case being much sought for. a gentleman
from our office attended for some hours, and prayed
for permissisa to enter the Court is vain.
Two of the patient.° of the press at length de•
mended admission ; the reply was " that the affair
under consideration was nedeigoing private investiga-
tion, and that none of the gentlemen of the press eorld
be admitted as, and that wben the extraordinary case
was in a fit stage for obtainiwg publicity, admission
would cortalely be granted.—(Dablia Paper.)

Otifitiaas IN laatimn.—Tire spiritof outrage ap-
pears to be reviving is various parts of Indeed. A
few nights since, says the Athlone paper, the hones of
1 Cottager' of Cranighrnore, near this Town,
Parish of Drum, County Roscommon, were forcibly
broken into by a party of miscreants, and some of the
Inhabitants thereof dreadfully beaten with whips and
furze bushes. 'I he only cause that can be assigned
for this act of outrage, was their having take. some
ground in that neighbourhood at the same rate as held
by the former tenant, which ground they were swore
to give op the nest morning. to the landlord. 11r.

In the comity of Limerick, the spirit is still worse.
On Saturday se'nnight, in the morning, about ten
o'clock, a female who was conceived to have gives in-
formation which led to the epprehensies of four fel-
lows who bad bees taken the preceding 'day. on the

near where she resided, fora can of water. was seised
upon by a mats with his face blackened, who ba-
stion dragged her into the grove, and, io the genet
savage manner, attempted to cut her throat. The ar
proseb of some persons prevented the miscreant carry-
ing his intention into effect, as he only gave her some
scars under the chin, and hopes are entertained of her
recovery.

THE ANCIENT VESSEL IN THE ROTHER..- The
Kentish Gazette says, that since oar last notice of this
singular discovery no farther steps have been taken to
convey it to the metropolis. It still remains at the
place to which it was floated, and while there is so
great a resort or persons daily to view it, there is little
inducement in the owner to remove it. There is no
impression on the piece of coin mentioned to have
been found (if such its fact it is); bat there is a plate
or piece of pewter, or some other metal marked whit
lold bleak letters I. P.; from which some have coa-
dently asserted, that the date cannot be so remote as
six or seven centuries back ; although they admit
that these characters were in use as long as are cen-
turies since..
Our correspondezt adds al extract from Stow, re-
lating to the invasion of the Danes in this part of
the kingdom, which, be says, appears to threw tame
light on the poise ef antiquity now in question—
" la the year 892 (says Stow) a great army of
Pagans, with 250 ship, came into Kent, leaded at
the month of the river that ruonetb from the great
' wood, which is called Andrea's Weald' and drew their
ships four miles into the same wood, where they de-
stroyed a castle, and fortified another more strong at
a place called Apultrons, now Apulder."
• Drew their ships.—The vessel when found bad her
head towards Appledote where they landed, and the fleet
was probably dragged up the river with their bows to-
ward the sea.
Since the above has been communicated to as, it is
stated that \contra's !mimeo made by Mr. W. Hunter,
of Rye, to remove the vessel to London, by laud. It
is ales said, that 1,0001. has been offered fur it by sonic
4estleiran from Loados, bit refiteede—(Soutsce Ad
