Tlvtles..--Robert Flood, Esq. High Sheriff of the
county Kilkenny, although envious for an amelioration
of the Tithe System, has declined a very respectable re-
quisition for a county meeting upon the subject of Com-
mutation. The requisitionists have, in consequence,
called such a meeting for Thursday, the 23d, at the
keno? Theatre, the Sheriff Mot being willing to give up
the Court House to a meetim, which he could not
sanction. He assigns for the . motives of his condnet.
the absence of the names of several large proprietors;
to the document lately signed by the Orand Jury, is
favour of Commutation, the implied pledge of govern.'
meat to introduce the subject into Parliament neat See.
sion, and the danger of calling the meeting at the pre.
sent moment, when many persons might carry their
Ideas far beyond Commutation.—(fraterford Mirror.)
