•
STATE OF IRELAND.
(TROY TVS DOMAN *VIKING MT, RILCIITISk TRS
swami/4G.)

The death of our revered and venerable Soverrign,
as it null engross all the feelings of the public, will ex-
cuse us from entering upon the subject of the state of
Ireland in that detail which the information in our pos-
session enables us to do.—We have only to observe, with
regard to the count• of Oa!way, that Urn. O'Loughlin
goes down to take the command of the district. It has
also bet-n represented to us that a Police llstahlishosoue
of MO men are about to be dispatched to the disturbed
districts.

Regarding the murder of Mr. Edward Bromic, we
understand, from the authority of gentlemen who were
present at the inquest, that it appeared to be the univer-
sal impression that this most excellent young man vet
mistaken for smother, and not, as our former anthotity
(certainly a most respectable one), induced us to oists.
elude, that he fell a victim to private malice. In joatice
to the memory of Mr. Browne. and the reeling, of his
afflicted surviving friends, we feel great plcasnre in
making this statement. Mr. Brown's eliaractev Ridged
was so amiable, and his conduct su entirely void of
offence, that we are perfectly safe in stating, that he bad
not an enemy in the world, and that so far from ex.
citing deadly vengeance, we believe, from the commit-
nications which hare beeu mad* to us, that there was no
person in existence who entertaiaed a personal pique
against him. At the same time we will contend, that The
Courier is wrong in attributing this catastrophe to a re-
ligious feeling. It is not because Mr. O'Rorke, the gen-
tleman for whom, it appears, he was mistaken. was a Pro-
testant clergyman, that his life was sought—for there is a
Protestant clergyneo on the spot, M r. Cuppey, who is po-
pular and beloved by every denomination of Christians
in his vicinity—hut because Mr. ('Rorke was, perhaps,
a justifiably acti►e magistrate. We do not care at pre-
sent to go farther into this most unpleasant subject.
THREI o'Ctoce.—Just as we were going to press,
we received a letter from Galway, stating, tbat upwards
of 500 Itibbonmen had been taking up arms in the neigh-
bourhood of Clonfort on Friday night—when the Bishop,
being informed of it, went into the church, sad con-
tinued ringing the bell until day light. The church he
had barricadoed and defended by armed men. The
next night, Saturday last, a farce of 300 regulars were
dispatched to his Lordship, who are patrolitqc all the
goaalkin the vicinity. Another meeting of Magistrates
was to be held on 3londay.
