intent. The only reason we can learn for this
outrage is, that as Woodranger, and doing his
to his employer, he some time since gave information
, .4 pose timber having been stolen, and that oh searching
it, it was found.
We lately noticed the sailing of the Isabella transport.
ipith 400 convicts on hoard, for New South Wales. On
Wedoesdav last 180 others were drafted from the Surprise
balk, to the Medina, note lying at Cove, Which, hawing
then received the number she is capable of carrying, will
ail the first fair wind. The vacancies which have been
matod in the hulk by these quick and successive removal.,
have been since filled up from the depot in this City, several
large bodies having been sent down during the last two or
three days. The dins itch need in completing these vessels
forms a singular contrast with the system which was in use
on this station a few years ago. Of this we could not,
perhaps, give 4 stronger instance than this plain fact, that
the Isabella, which only arrived in the river on the 6'h inst.
had bar unusher on hoard on the Bth—and the Medina
which arrived on the Nth, had her complement completed
cm the following Jay; whereas, under the old system, it
wag not unusual for transports to remain at Cove for
several weeks. withont any arrangement or preparation
for sending them to sea, by which an expensive demurrage
was entailed on the Coantry, amounting in one instance,
within our own recollection, to some thousands of pounds,
and in others, to teeny hundreds.(Cork Paper )
On Sunday, the 24th instant, several thousands of coun-
try people aasettilil-d on the Kilpatri, k road. abont two
miles froin Bandon, f,r the purpose, it should seem of en-
gaging in the lawlims and dangerous practice of bowline.
The Km Joseph Jervois, with his nsnal attention to• the
duties of the Magisterial office, despatched some of the new
police. .who immediately di-persed the multitude. It was
understood that they would return next day in greater
numbers, inclined to make resistance• to any interruption
offered them; they did sot and Mr. Jervois, accompanied
by the police, again dispersed them.
About seven o'clock that evening, a party of over 100
men, a great proportion of whom were armed with large
cedgels, assembled outside Mr. Jervois's gate, near Bandon,
and commenced a riot Mr. Jervois, with two of his ser-
treats, and the Bandon h idewell-keeper, who was present,
advanced to disperse them. Mr. Jervois. however, Ita;init
rushed amongst them with his usual intrepidity, a •cured
twee and a party of the Police coming up, three wore were

taken.

A large number afterwards assembled at the old 1. hapeb
cross, wear Bandon, and manifested every dispos;tion to
memos rioting; so flinch so, that Mr. Jerwris, at the hour
of ten at night, had to repair there with the Polire, and
read the Riot Art before they would diaperar. Mr Jerwris
then kept patrolling t'.• ronntry till a 'we hour, and until
