We ere happy to learn from Monntratli, that a per-
ses.of she ttatoe of Dalton, one of those charged witb
fire baibarous murder of Thomas Lawrence, Esq., late
of Nettag4l, (which occurred last Jane in that town,)
was apprehended at a late hour on Thursday night,
by the• Rev. Mr. Griffith, and committed by him the
ensohig day to the gaol of Maryborough. Mr. Grif-
fitlapu accompanied by a small party of the Mosin-
ee/A Yeomanry. On the death of Mr. Lawrence,
Dalton eloped, and bad only returned about three
Were before his apprehension, to his mother's house,
where he was found concealed in the most artfal
manster:—(Dublin Evening Post.)
Gotistes KILDARE FARMING Soctees.—A very nu-
merous Meeting of this long-estAblisiied and most
esefsl body, met at Naas, on the 24th inst , the Duke
of Leinster in the Chair ; Robert La Touche, Esq.,
M. P., Vice-President. Nothing can more strongly
prove the badness of the times, and the very anion-
moate state of the country, that the necessity in which
this Society finds itself, oidisoontirming its premiums
from its present want of funds. The best Members of
the Farming Classes have got so much in arrear in
their subscriptions, that they declined to appear or
to dine with their neighbours, and general depression
damps the spirit of the most industrious and hitherto
prosperous cultivators. Notwithstanding the distress
and wants of the unemployed Isbourers, they have, in
general, the merit of peaceable and orderly conduct.
ASSOCIATIONS.—We bare heard strange
stories of certain illegal associations in the neighbour-
hood of Laren and Armagh, that they are giving
the present King, to whom Ireland is so much indebted
foe the temple be has displayed, the familiar, though
miscalling title of the Ribbon Nino. The great merit
of Georgethe Fourth is, that, in °lreland, be rods DA-
tbet a 'Ribbon King nor an Orange King, but held'
and estimated *Wines by. the
only p t atit rational measure—their fidelity to a
Mona who will gnarl their feelings, as far as he
can, frees the insults of petty tyranny.—(lrishmon.)

OLD DAILEY.—Mis Mon Nix&
, Hannah Jones was indicted for uttering base and
coanterfeitcuin, purporting to be the genuine coin of
the realm.
Messrs. ANDREWS and NORTON were retain ed for the
prosecution.
John Isaacson deposed that lie was employed by
the Solicitor of the Mint to purchase base coin of the
prisoner, who resides in Charles-street, Drury-lane. On
the 23d of October he male a purchase of seven coun-
terfeit shillings, for which he paid two shillings and
four-pence. The money with which he purchased them
was given him by the officers for that purpose. The
base shillings were not quite finished; the prisoner
heated a poker, placed the coin upon it, and whilst the
shillings were hot, iimuersed then in cold water isi
which she had previously put a.powder. Witness had
ibefore made two purchases of a similar nature,
(Heed and Kennedy, Pollee officers, produced a great
quantity of base half-crowns, shillings, and sixpences,
which they found in the room of the prisoner when she
was taken into custody. They also fonnil upon her per-
son the money which Isaacson had paid her, and which
they knew by certain marks.
Caleb Eltis4rd Powell, is solicitor totieMint, anti
has filled that situation thirty
.years. He proved the
whole of the coin to be counterfeit. It was made of base
metal, and merely covered over with a %raids ; the silver
would be rubbed off by a elteulation of two days.
The prisoner called a witness to character, whose tes-
timony, however, failed in rendering her any service.
The COMMON SIERJEANT ordered the prisoner to be
placed at the bar, and sentenced her to twelve months
imprisonment, at the same time admonishing her to
adopt a different course of life when the term of her im-
prisonment should expire. Her name would be recol-
lected, and if she ever stood again at that bar for si-
milar effete', sentence of death would inimitably folios
ligr conviction.
