BY the Dublin Mail this morning, we
learn that il is apprehended the districts of
the counties of Waterford, Monaghan and
Kilkenny, must be declared under mar

limerick. Forty-nine magistrates of the
tier lately met. with Earl Clark at
their head, and resolved to Call on the
Lord Lieutenant to have the insurrection
act put in force in parts of the county, and
particularly around the city of Limerick.
In the county of Waterford, only one
nightly aggression has yet occurred but
evil minded emissaries, administering lie
gal oaths, and arranging system OF re-
sstance TO the laws, have been seen in
different parts of it, and we fear that the
contagion is rapidly advancing. a spirit
