The medical certificates that consigned
Lady Bulwer Lytton TO a lunatic asylum
were not as represented by amorning paper,
signed by Doctor Thompson, but by Mr..

of the case have been laid before DR.. Forbes
Winslow, and this physician has undertaken
to ascertain the fact of her sanity or insanity.
The case will now be properly aud fully in
vestigated. We feel assured from what we
hear, that Lady Lytton will in few days be
released from the painful restraint TO which
she is now subjected.

pretty mess can get nothing 10 eat, nor auv
wine to drink, except whisky; and when We
sit down TO dinner We are obliged 10 keep both
hands armed. While write this hold sword
ia each hand and pistol in tie other.

would be the end of il, and see | was right /:

being robbed No longer ago than yesterday
the coach with the mail from Dublin was robbed
near this town. The bags had been left behind
for fear of accident and by good luck there WIS
nobody in it bu. two outside passengers, who
had nothing for the thieves to take. Last Tues
day, notice was gi, en- that gang of rebels was
advancing here under the French standard but
they had no colors nor any drums except bag
pipes
GLIDING men women and children, ran cut 10
meet them We soon found our force much toe
little we were too near to think of retreating
Death was in every face but at 1T we went. and
began TO be all alive again. Fortunately the
rebels had 10 guns but pistols and pixies, and
as we had plenty of muskets aud ammunition, we
put them all to the sword. Not a soul "t them
escaped, except some that We're drowned IN the
adjacent bogs, and in very short time nothing
was heard but silence. Their uniforms were all
different coloIs. but mostly green. After the
aci ion went To rummage sort OF camp
which they bad left behind them. All We
found was a few pixies without heads, parcel
of empty bottles OF wtter, and a bundle OF
French commissions filled with lrish names.-
Troops are now stationed all around the couu-
try, which exactly squares with my ideas j
have only time to add that | am IN great
hurry.
