I'VE regret to announce the demise of the

! fcn years he has been connected with Gal
way, and much of the progress Of his Order
IN this city is due to his efforts. A magni-
icent church and college arc some of the
results of his labOrs. He belonged to one
of our best county families, being third son
of the late Sir Michael Bellew, of Mount
Bellew. He, as we'll as his late lamented
brother, Sir Christopher, became distin-
guished member of the Jesuit Society. He

ton took place i'm St. Mel's Cathedral,
Lcngford. The Most Rev. DR.. McCabe con-

LrMERIcK.-The Reporter says: The Rev.
O'Keane, p. p, of Knockanay,
gratefully acknowledges the receipt of EGO
from Count de Sails, the landlord of Lough-
guir, in aid of erecting a parochial resi-
dence at Knockanay. This check has come
through L. o. p. Filgate, Esq, county An
guir. Had we such landlords and agents
through Ireland, we would not witness
those scenes which awaken and excite the
worst passions, outrage humanity, and,
under the great pressure of grief, drive the
evicted to acts of retaliation, and force him
by an impulse Irresistible, regardless even
Of life, to seek redress in the wild law of re-
venge. Those acts are never known in
LoUghguir. The crowbar brigade was never
seen there, nor the imperative ukase of
notice to quit heard of; a,bailiff on such
mission is rs rare as, n black swan on the
lakes.
