About a fortnight since, a stashing blade, calling him-

Os Sanday, the 9th inanity. the Ballymacash
Yeomanry distiuskisbed themselves in the *ow. of
(Ashton, by marching to the House of Goo to the
tone of " The Protestant Boys," with Captain Ma-
thew Francis Johnston at their head. The Corps has
bees lately placed on permanent duty.—(Be
Irishman.)
We look with certainty fee an order for the &win-
tioa of the Ballyinaeash Yeomanry. It is impossible
that Government eau overlook the mlseosduct of this
Captain Johnson, whoever he be. We have said, that
that the Yeomanry Corps are hot-beds of Faction.—
Here is a proof, if proof were wanting. The only way
of putting down the spirit of Sedition in the North,
is to crush this Corps at once.

2d ditto

In Londonderry, too, the Ride Corps of the Yeomanry
exhibit their Orange Ribbons; and on the Anniver-
sary of closing the city gates, several tumultuous ma-
nifestations were made. Colonel Pearson, however,
the Commandant of the Garrison, hauled down Go-
verner Ludny's effigy, which was exhibited, and
threw it into the river. He also took possession of se-
veral pieces of cannon, which were mad. use of in
firing salutes. This Rifle Corps should be disbanded.
We are truly sorry to be obliged to state, that Ty-
phus Fever has made its appearance in the county of
Kilkenny and Queen's comity, and owing to constant
wet, an universal epidemic has broken ott among the
horses. The poor ars in the utmost distress for fuel,
it being impossible, in most cases, to mob the bogs.
The wretched mud edifices of the wretched peasantry
are literally melting away. Large quantities of pota-
toes still remain in the ground, and, from the provin-
cial papers, we learn that several pits have been swept
away by the floods.

The Captain had taken 100 guineas to 50, that be
did the distance in seven hours, but his third horse
wanted the whip and spar, and the fourth fell down,
or he would no doubt have won both bets.

Tna SILTS-TWO MIL'S ♦-DAT MATCH TOIL Tax
DAvs.—Mr. West, the pedestrian, completed his sixth
day's laboui on Monday night, in the neighbourhood
of Wells, Somersetshire, and notwithstanding the
wetness of . the season be is fresh, and backed at 6 to
4 to win. He wept the first day to Winchester, and
from thence to Exeter, traversing a day's journey to-
wards London, from thence back to Honitoi, Devon,
and across the country into Somersetshire. While
travelling be does five miles an hour with ease to him-
self, and at intervals takes a swinging lunge 50 or
100 yards. He purposes finishing near London.

PLTMOUTII, Dac. 24.-7-An inquisition, to assess the
value of land taken from, and amount of damage done
to Leigham, the estate of Addis Archer, Esq. about
four miles from this town, by the Dartmoor Railway
Company, in making a second cut through that gentle-
man's estate for the Railroad, was on Wednesday de•
cided by a special jury, of which J. W. Clarke, Esq
of Barrington, was foreman, before It. C. Campion.
Esq. the Under Sheriff, at the London Inn. in thi,
town, and a verdict of 4371. returned fur Mr. Archer.
This case has excited considerable inte.-est in this pare
of the country, and occupied near five lays, the ex
penses of which, we bear, is ab. at 1W) guineas p. r
diem.

The people of Perth have it in contemplatien tr
form Joint Stock Societies to obtain butcher's meat a
lower rates than they have at present. A pencil

that the price of butcher's meat was leigh In Perth.
went there last week with two fat „cattle, which 1,1
slaughtered, and sold at throe-halfpence a lb. under tin
market price, and declared that he had made more pro
6t, after paying all expenses, than he would have don
had he sold the beef in Edinburgh.
A few days ago the dog of John Huggit, King-street
Troy Town, near Chatham, killed a rat which is market!
by several singularities. It has but three legs, anc
there is no external appearance to point out that it eve'
had a fourth : its fore teeth in the under jaw are of an
amazing length, curved, and forming two thirds .f a
circle of about three quarters of an inch diameter; one
of the fore teeth in the upper jaw is broken off; the
other tooth bas formed a eurve within the mouth, the
point of which has entered the roof to a considerable,
distanco, amCia-ie ***oared that bad the rat eeiesped I
the dog, this tooth would ultimately have caused its
death.

As Mr. Richard Pye, of Biding Place, was on his re-
turn home- on horseback from Rochester market last
Tuesday evening, between ten and eleven o'clock, when
proceeding along the Pilgrim's Road, between Hailing
and his residence, he was shot at from behind the
hedge, the ball taking an oblique direction, passed
through his knee-cap and his breeches, but most fortu-
nately only grazed the skin of his knee. No trace of
the perpetrator of this diabolical act can be discovered
and whether the miscreant sought out of malice and re-
venge to take away the life of Mr. Pye, or ,whether it
was his intention to have wounded and robbed him, still
remain a mystery, but it is much to be feared the former
was the object in view.
The house of Captain Lyons, at Natt's Hill near
Upper Riinhani, Kent, was burglarionsly entered on
the morning of Saturday, the 15th inst. and robbed of
property to a considerable amount. About two o'clock
ln the morning, the servant
.girl was alarmed bra noise
in the house, and she went immediately to awake her
piaster, who being exceeding deaf, she was compelled
to call very loud, which is supposed to have frightened
the robbers, sad they immediately left the house taking
with them everything of value that was portable—Upon
going down stairs Capt. Lyons found that the thieves
ad attempted to gain an entrance by taking down se-
veral bricks at the corner of the house, but this not suc-
cording. they took out a window, and by this means got
in. The property consisted,of silver table spoons, salt
cellars and pepper castors, two. golden guineas, six
half crowns, winch were dingy from long keeping,
about £3 in silver new coin, a quantity of. cut glass
rummers, &c.

Fee the fast week we have experienced nothing hat
a succession of tremendous storms from the S. and
S.W.; and although there is a large leer of out-
ward bound slips at anchor in the Sound and Cat water,
Mill mrdansage whatever has been dine to the ship-
pia! ; this is another proof of the great utility of the
Breakwater.—(Plymenth paper.)
