The above fair was held on the 47th alt.; a riot
of a most serious hind occurred there; a nue has
bees shot—we have not learned that he is dead.—
The following tenant is from a person who, it
will be seas by his letter, was not present, bat
on whose accuracy we eau place every relieves:,

of the " Gentleman" who gave the orders to the

hearing the balls whizzing about, threw themselves on

occasion, and the unfortunate result, occasioned a rut
deal of merriment. The soldiers retreated from the

nesses."
Another account states, that it was the police who
were engaged with the peasantry.

From the Galway Advertiser, of Saturday last, we
take the following paragraphs. They describe a state
of misery, an excess of human wretchedness, too
shocking to be dwelt upon :
