Althangh letters Weir received in town yesterday
from various parts of the conntry, we do not learn that
any new event of importance was communicated from
the disturbed districts.
There is no longer a doubt, hut that the particular
grievance which has had the largest share in pro-
dacicg the present (potful... and their accompanying
tunsultnens resistance to the laws, is the severity (shall
we say the injustice?) with which tithe is rated and
levied, or attempted to be let led, in the South of Ire-
land. The reader cannot have forgotten the does-
meats which we recently published respecting tithe in
the parish •f Aglivh, coonty of Waterford. The ex-
tracts which we published yesterday from the Cion-
mel Herald. are also of great importance as bearing
upon this question.
The Sub-Sheriff of the county of Waterford at-
tended, it appears, at a village called Poor-Mile-
Water, to levy distress for tithes, ender Civil Bill de-
crees. The Cloamel Herald says :
" The seasation produced by his presence was
each as may naturally be supposed to attend the m-
en:lon, esootiot an unlettered population, in the time
of neiversal depression tad distress, of legal process,
to ?oyes payment of tithes, several years in arrear, to
a person who has for the last six or seven years; if
not longer, been entirely out of the ! The
foolish, misguided people, to a great Banshee, took
up
arms." • • • • • •
And agaits
"In the word of the rebellion of 1795, this dis-
trict was singularly tranquil • • ". Although the
people, uoivereally speaking, murmur against the
rates at which tithes are charged, as quite too heavy.
beyond any commensuration with the crops and prices
aed grievously aggravated in their pressure, by the
coneonsitanoy of every other burden, still they pay
the wildest any menace of war. Their objection
veers to be against what many sober persons consi-
der an ungracious effort, just now, in a district hitherto
solerably tranquil, to put in execution Civil Bill de-
reoleartherrined for tithes that accrued doe oat of crops
grown wise nr ten, or eleven years since. We know
that no landlerd can be found, who has suffered three
years' rent tat ran in arresr, and is at the same time
ualeeting or unthinking enough to attempt enforcing
Its payment. He knows that the teasel who has
been obliged to fall so much behiodhand, cannot be ex-
pected to recover his lee-way, and he gives up the
claim as hopeless."
The Editor of the Paper from which we have made
these extracts is himself a Magistrate, and never, we
believe, Weltered the charge, as other public writers
have done, of leaning too mach to the side of po
feeling. • • • •

groodless.

ILISOYT or IXXISHOWIN (COUNTT DONIFOAL.)—
We MVO' to state, that some serious strays bare oc-
curred is this piece, betweea the Remits Police,
and the country people. It is knows to all oar read-
ers, that fonishowen is famous for illicit distillation.
The dicer oonsmanding the revenue police, having re-
ceived information concerning certain stills, went with
big party to seize them. The peasantry offered a fierce
mistime, sod we regret to state appear to have been
too teccessfel. The officer bad blears fractured, and sin
of the Police ere said to have been killed. The particu-
lars have not yet reached us, bat, we belisie, the reader
limy-rely on the foregoing statement.
After a detail of the various outrages which bad been
recently committed is the county of Cork, the sass,
paper thus proceeds :—As a set off to these statements.
we are glad to have in oar power to state, that Water-
ford has, generally speaking', not only continued
tranquil, bat that not fewer than 90 stand of arms bare
beta ss tiered, voluntatily, to the Magistrates.—
We bare also to state, that nine of the murderers of
Mr. Brenton. who was assassinated between Cork and
Trak*, bare been apprehended, aid the leader of a
party shot.
There is now a force of between sic and seven
thousand men, horse, foot, and artillery in the comi-
ties of Limerick and Cork alone. And yet these two
moieties bare bees, and continue to be, in a greater
state of agitation. than any in the kingdom. Nothieg
eau be more aanoying and harassing thou the duty to
which these brave men are exposed, and nothing, we
understand, can surpass their cheerfulness and ala-
crity.
