turing% of the popular distress. In the Queen's county,
party of those Propagausdista were brought before
L trd Vesci, who, after some exathittat;o4, allot e'
turn) to proceed Oh their rohte to the county of Do, Is
but sent information to the Marquis of Downshi re. They
were seized on their entrance into that county, and esa-
anted. The result of the Marquis's communication
With Dublin was an order for their conveyance thither.
The sale of the handkerchiefs was kubor.dinate portion
of their office, for with each they gate a tratt either
atheistic or rebellious."

A melancholy proof of the violence' of the passions
took place, on Tfinrselav last, at trayligh, near Tenby.

under pretence of going to skate, persteadetitiriffith to
accompany him to a piece of ice that had been formed in
the declivity of ihe rocks. CroMing one of thesis, he
took from his pocket a bottle, under pretence of taking
some spirits to keep out the cold, and with it knocked
his companion down, anti ittempted to cut his throat;
In doing which he lacerated the mouth inil face of the
unfortunate man in a dreadful manner. Finding it im-
possible m effect lift diabolical purpose. from the re-
Stowe, that was made, he threw the vietini of his me-
lice down the side of a rock, a i e•rpendicular height of
nearly 40 feet. In the coulse of the day he was disco-
vered by some gentlemen passing on a ;hooting excur-
