 IRISH AGITATJON

1he leaders of the popular partvi in Ireland select generally for the scene of theig meet ings, places associated with the injustice or l oppression of the English, or the glory, whether real or legendary, of their own an- cient nation. Thus itwas they chose the Hill oi Tara, and thus itis that they have now fixed on the .' Ralh eff Mullagkmast' for an assemblage of the people of the province oi Lenser, on the Isl instant.
 The Dublin Freeman's Journal quotes from Curry's History of Ireland, the following historical record of the pluce
 The English published a proclamation. inviting al! the well affected Irish to an inter view on the Rath of Mullaghmast engaging, at the same time, for their security, and that no evil was intended In co1iseaence of this engagement, the well-anorted came to the rath aforesaid, and soon after they were as sembled, they found themselves surrounded by three or four lines of English and Irish horse and foot, completely accoutred, by whom they were ungenegously attacked and cut tO pieces, and not a single man escaped.n
 The editor adds -
 Such was the massacre of the Rath of Null laghnast, where the next great meeting will be held. It will be monster meeting-a meeting of every man in Leinster! Whether they descend from Gael or the Norman, the men of Leinster will swear fealty to Ireland that on Rath, by the bones of those who sleep below! They met at.Tara, 10 com memorate our early glories-at Mullaghmast they will hold counsel with the shades of the victims to the strangers vengeful treach- cry! The proud array, the gorgeous parade, the warrior, the bard, are the mementos of the olden time--the misery, the want, the woe, the oppression which startlc us on every side, are the memorials of the more recent event. Tara was typical of our con dition before the enemy polluted the soil of this fair land-Mullaghmast is ernoiema,icni of that to which the hated rule of the op- pressor has subdued Us. Tara is the crea- ton of the Irish mind, swayed by no anti national inhuence-AIullaghmastis the reali- zation of that state to which our trustlulness of others must reduce us. Tara typiies Ire land for the ifish--Mullaghrnast~ indicates Efin of the Saxon.

1 .Mgsierioas .4fair.-On Tuesday alter.. noon, coiofed man called at the office of Harnden & Co, in Wall street, N Y, and re- quested him as favor to change o 1000 note on the National Bank, as he did not wish to present the note himself, t having been found with others in Philadelphia. The officers of the bank were informed Of these facts, when they advised that the note should be present- ed by Mir. Atwill, which was done The cashier, upon obtaining the bill, went To Harn- den's office, and took the man 10 the police office, where he was examined He stated that he received the note from colored man, who lived in a gambling establishment, ad- joining the Express buildings. The officers immediately arrested the negro, on whom they found another note of the same demo- imitation, which he said were delivered 10 him by another eolored man, who brought them from Philadelphia
 A large sum of money was paid by the Ma tlonal Bank, 10 gentleman going west, about a month ago, and some suspicion was ex- pressed that none of the notes had yet re- turned to the bank. The note presented was identified as one of them.

DEPRESSING CAsIlAuTy.

We are called To record a most painful ana melancholy accident 4 few days since hr Edward K. BrinckcrheH and MT. T. W. beccher leit thls city on ashooting excursion Iii Hamilton county. They lodeed nj the house o Mr Luther BFts,sifa ii if, tr 17y;t l,
 Gilman, aud on Tuesday morning las, started to go to Louis Lake, some ten miles or more from Browns. They were accompanied by lad about seventeen years of age, as n guide. Between one and two o'clock in the afternoon, the party came to a small piece of swamp, and in order to avoid it the guide and Mir Beecher took small circuit. Mr. BrlnckerlloH being last, attempted to make Ills way directly through the swamp Be- fore he had gone more than few steps how ever, the guide called to him and told him that II was miry ground and he had bettergo around outside Mir Brinekerholf turned ac- eofdingly and eneeunteriag a beech tree. winch grew almost horizontally, stepped to pass under II. His rifle was on his shoul- de?, the breech to the rear, the hammer dorm, and his left hand graspiug the barrel As he rose from under the tree, the butt of the rifle struck against the trunk. the hammer was drawn back and then dropped upon the cone, and the charge instantly exploded The ball struck Mir Beeeher, who was about ten or tweve feet ln advance, just over the righ1 ear, passed through the brain and came out between the eyes. He fell to the ground. gaspod about eight or ten minutes, and then expired. Mr Brinekerhoff at once despatch- ed the guide for help, and remained alone by the dead body of his companion for three sad and weary hours, awaiting assistance.- The accident occurred about nine miles from any settlement, and it was nearly niqhtlall before help could be procured At length two hunters who were on their way To oin Messrs. Beecher and Brnckerhofl. reached the scene ot the catastrophe, and by their 'aa the body oi Mir. Beeeher was brought to the house of Mir. Brown Mr. Brinekerholi and hif Brown, with the corpse of poor Beeeher, reached the city early this morning
 Mir. Beeeher was the lessee of the Albany Baths, in Broadway, which he has kept for several years past. He was attentive and obllgIng 10 his customers, honest in his deal- ings, frugal and industrious in his habits, and enjoyed the respect and good will of ali who knew him. He has left a young and at iached wife to mourn his sudden death.- MT. Bnnckerhon, who is careful as we'll as keen sportsman, and whose generous and ailecfionate nature has endeared him to . large circle of friends, suffers the keenest mental agony under the aillietng dispensa- ton. It IS one of those melancholy cases where sympathy for the survivor is no less deep and heartfelt than sorrow for the de- ceased ErcRiag .JOnraai

BcPeal and Ree0lution ia Europe and A. merica.-The efforts in favor of the Irish Repeal movements ill the United States, ap- pear to have slackened very much of late. Just before the elections, by way of coneili- ating the Irish voters, we had expected a very general demonstration, but with the ex- cepton of an isolated effort in Albany, we have seen nothing worthy of notice.
 The truth cannot be concealed. The ex- treme bitterness, prejudice, and injustice of Mr. O'Connell and the Dublin Repeal As sociation, towards the institutions of the south, have paralyzed all extensive repeal move ments on this side of the water But while this sentiment prevails every day, it cannot be denied that there exists strong sympathy among the people here towards the struggles of the reformers i'll Ireland, England, Scot land, France, Spain, and other parts of E,.- rope, whatever name these reformers may take The Repealers of Ireland-the Re- beecaites of Wales-the Anti-Com law lea guers of England-the new religious inde- pendents of Scotand-or the Republicans throughout Europe, are so talked of and sympathlzed with, that 1t will probably create some general movement in this metropolis and throughout the republic The sufarings of the masses throughout Europe are con sidered as oppressive, and as much entitled to sympathy as those of Ireland. We have every reason 10 believe, therefore, that some general organization or. association will soon be produced in this metropolis, having for it's object the legal and constitutional reform of all the governments of western Europe Here will probably be the grand centre of a great revolutionary movement, equally en- bracirg England, France, Italy, and Spain Such, at least, is our recent information.

Ite Romance of .Matrin,ony-Mr. John NJ. Batchelder, of Saco, Maine, was recent- ly married to Mrs. E. c. Beardslev, of New York. The New York Bulletin, giving place to the announcement, says =
 Something like year and half ago, Mr. Batchelder, the groom aforesaid was united in marriage to lady whose health was so delicate that they immediately set sail for Vera Cruz, in the hope that the voyage would be beneficial to her. They had for fellow passenger Mrs. E. Constantia Beardsey, the bride aforesaid, who was accompanying her then husband to Vera Cruz for the improve ment of his health. But fate had ordained disappointment to both parties and Mrs Batchelder and Mr. Beartlsley both went s.the way of all fesh.o The bereaved widower. as soon as proprety would admit, addressed himself to the dlsconsolate widow, and pro- posed as a consolation to their respective af- flietions, that they should supply to each other the places of t,Ie,r dear departed mates But Mrs. Beardsley, for some cause CT other prehably-eE, as she is d U0mall, perhaps from TO cause-declincd the proposal. But Mir. Batchelder was determined not to remain m his bereayed state, and consequently made love to another lady, with whom he was more successful, and who received him and the offer of his heart and hand with all the favor he, could desire ArcorCling 10 the rules and regulations edown east,o the forth coming marriage of MT. Batchelder and his new flame was duly ssPubished1 in the pa rish church, and all was going on
 "Merrily as the marriage bells"
 when on the Saturday preceding the Tuesday on which the marriage Was published to take place, Mr. Batchelder had the happiness to receive from the relenting widow Beardsley letter, ill which she withdrew her desclina- lion of his offer of marriage, and acknow- ledged herself ready to make him happy, if he yet rested under the idea that his happi- pmess could be influenced by her Here was "a gon indeed, and one well calculated to puzzle almost any man. How Mr. Batchel- der goi out of this dilemma is ia paft told b, the announcement which has drawn from us this story ;--thc maoid part consists in the interesting fact that he had to pay the disap- pointed bride that was to be, two thousand one hundred dollars for breach of his pro- mise 10 her.

The St. Louis Republican says: The thiev

The St. Louis Republican says: The thiev- ing gentry in s. Louis are carrying on an ac tive business at present, and the success which attends them Is likely to make our city pro- mlnent point for their operations. l. is fact that the thieves are beginning to look upon robbery in Missouri as pleasing recreation, attended with ride at the States expense to Jefferson, and the stirring excitement of an outbreak, when they have tarred long enough to pass mutual interchanges of cour- tcsy with their crones.
 A few of the above described gentry walk ed on board the steamer Algonquin, last evening about supper time, stole trunk from a state room, carried t up on. the hurricane deck, and there ri1od it of its contents.
 On Tuesday evening a man was knocked down by two ruhians, in the neighborhood of the old market, and robbed of about $50 in gold. Two young men were under cxa- mination yesterday before the Recorder, charged with the offence: their examination will be continued to-day.
 A dwelling house was entered last Mon day, on Olive street, between Fourth and Fifth, and robbed ofsundry articles of wearing apparel case of drawers was also eased oi some valuable articles.

.fnoiaer Iragedy.-The New Haven Cou- rier states that Mr. J ohn Stannard, wealthy and respectable farmer of Westbroek, on the Connecticut river,) man of 50 years of age, with wife and two children, was deliberate ly shot, while at the supper table, by his own son.
 The family were thus occupied, when A. pheus Stannard, About 24 years of age, went into his chamber somewhat abruptly, and, as subsequently appeared, loaded his gum John, the younger son, expressed some ap- prehensions to the father, and said that he was fearful Alpheus was about to do some thing wrong, perhaps shoot some one When he came down stairs with the gun in his hand, John left the room. The father rose from the table and approached him, with some exclamation of surprise, apparently for the purpose of seizing the weapon.
 Aiphsus immediately leyelled the musket, and shot his father directly ill the breast. the ball passing through, and coming out of his back. He lived until midnight, when he ex- pred in excruciating agony. The son seem ed quite unconscious of the tragedy in which he had been engaged, and although he has never been suspected of insanity, yet in this murderous act he has exhibited such evi- deaces of it, that we understand lie is to be sent immediately to the Retreat, at Hartford

 \ gentleman of this town some time since addressed a letter to Mr. CALHOUN, stating that his enemies in this section of country were declaring that he favored the doctrine that Congress has tine right to lay discrimi- nailng duties-that is, to tax one article ol foreign manufacture high, and, another low, as the interest or caprice of majority of Congress may dictate. He also desired lIr. C. to say to him whether or not he enter tained such views; and the following is the frank, manly answer:
 FoRr fIILr., Sept 2l, l8l3.
 Dear sir: ' You are right in reference to my opinions on the Tariff. deny the right of imposing any duties but for revenue. or to make any discrimination but on revenue principles. also deny the right of raising revenue, but for the Constitutional and cso- nomlcal objects of the government.
