We lemdllif id Wale that a dialealistel spirit similar to
that which has been nsanifeited it% other parts, is the
deetraetkosetilienaing stock by are. has shown itself is
then mmonsty. About eight seclork in the evening of
Twiny Wald/64 a straw stock antaining 60 loads k•
standing in the yard of Mr. Raker, of Des Court, .k.
near Grammad, was discovered to be on fire. In a few •
wastes the eases became truly awful ; but the wind ,
fortunat blowing from the buildings• and the other •
stacks. aid the prompt arrival of several engines from
Graveseed, Northileet, and Rochester, ttre fire was cow-
filled to the stack in which it originated, and which was
totally communed. From all the ieformation that can
he obtaieed, there is too mach reason to apprehend this
it was the act of an incendiary, and that the object in
view was the ilestructioti of a threshing machine which
was in an adjoining barn. The man who lirst discovered •
the fire. pereeited in the stack a light about the aim of
a lantern, and I. a moment the whole side of the stack
was la a blase. In a few minutes afterwards Mr.
Beenehley, who resides at Denton Court. in passing
through the yard was ran against by. a mean, who
dropped a light and made off; Mr. Ti. instantly extin- t
gnashed it, and on going to the spot the following morn- I
tag, be found a tobacco, pipe, but little used, broken in •
pieces. On Saturday night another stack consisting of
stubble, ataeding about half a mile free the above.
and belonging to Mr. Jarvis Noakes, of .Shorne, was
discovered to be on fire and totally destroyed. This
1 appears more to have been set on fire to meaning alarm
than any thing else, as a Ist a stack of why a
, short distance off, and mi ht ed.— •

recommenced, and a considerable share of increased in-
solence on the.part.of the prisoner; he boasted of., his .
1
various exploits done in the capacity which he now
avowed, and of the protection which he enjoyed. A
young gentleman of the name of Dempsey, who was in
the room at the commencement of this affair, bad the
prisoner. charged on the watch' Ihr the expression he
..
used, and to compel him to give-farther account of him-
self. Mr. Mitchell's statement was fully and satisfac- I
torily sustained by a gentleman of the named Manly, m a
well as by several others. The Magistrate inquired 4
what the prisoner had to say, when be (the prisoner), m
~I'.
with constderacle confidence, said, that he nil, sent by "
Government.
Mr. Long.—What-Government? i
The Prisoner.—The English Government.
Mr. Long.—Name the persons who sent you.
Prisoner.—Major Wilcocks aid Mr. Barrington. 'm i.
The Magistrate said that be would send him before 1,, ‘
the Recorder, and ordered that lie should be forthwith
indicted. A difficulty here arose as to what he shonld be t
indicted for ; and the prisoner having manifested a de-
sire to be sent before time Magistrates of the Head Office,
i
by whom, lie said, he would be recognised and known,
and from whom he said, he expected justice, the Magis-
trate accordingly referred the case to the Head Office,
and the prisoner was forthwith sent over in time custody
of a police offi,•er. The
parties having appeared before
Alderman Dailey and Major Sur, at the Head Office,
the same statement was again reesnitsilated, when Alder-
man Dariey exprea.ed himself highly gratified with the
conduct of Mr. Mitchell and his friends, and expressed
his thanks to them on the occasion, by assuring them
that they, the Magistrates, would take good care of the
prisoner.—We give the following description of this
man's person .
Edward 51`Donougla, in height, about five feet five
1 i
inches, rather stoat made, has dark brown hair, mil
heavy eyebrows, and smooth face, with rather a promi-
nent chin ; he speaks with a strong Munster accent, and
is about I'd years of age.
We wait with no little anxiety for the development of 1
this very curicus business. ,
