| has been appointed to the commission of
\ the peace for the County Waterford
The Waterford Ne,cs, of March 20, says :
We regret to learn that, owing to u recent
deplorable event, the establishment of the
Marquis of Waterford, at .Curraghmore
House. will be broken up, all the servants,
with the exception of two, having received
notice that their services are no longer re-
auired. The absence of q resident noble
man. who spent so much of his time at the
family residence, will be felt seriously in
the locality. ,4 s,,..
WEsTMEATn.-By the gracious permits
sion of the Pope, a solemn Mass of Requiem,
with funeral office, was recently celebrated
In the grand historic Basilca of Santa Maria
Maggiore, Rome, for the repose of the soul
of the late Rev. Thos. Birmingham, Tagh-
mon, Mullingar. 1t is said that monu-
mental slab is about being erected to his
memory in the church of Taghmon, by his
late Pensioners, who have entrusted its
execution to the son of the late eminent
Irish artist, Hogan.
WExFoRp.-The internent of the re-
mains of Matthew Z. Talbot, Esq, took
place on the 23d plt., in Wexford, whittier
they were brought by numerous cortege
of mourning friends from Dublin, where he
died. The remains were laid in the family
mausoleum, St. Johns Cemetery, Wexford.
A correspondent of the Dublin Freeman,
under date 24th ult., says: A young gentle
man named Leslie Leigh, son of Francis
Leigh, Esq, j. p, Sion, was charged with
robbing n man named James Codd, ut the
Wexford petty sessions to-day, and man
named John Roche was charged with aid
ing and abetting in the offence, which, rs
alleged, was committed on the evening Of
FebI uary %, after the parties had been
drinking at public house mt Crossabeg.
After evidence had been given by Codd,
Messrs Taylor and Waddy, solicitors, stated
on behalf of Leigh that no had cmigrated,
being unconscious that this charge was
about to be preferred against him. The
summons had not been served personally,
and the alleged offence was committed
nearly month ago. Mr.. Harvey, solicitor
on behalf of the plaintiff, obtained warrants
from their worships for the apprehension of
the two defendants. -,
WIcKLow.-The Earl of Wicklow died
1878, and succeeded his father in 1918, was
elected representative peer for Ireland in
1923, and in 1929, on the request of his
brother in-law, the Earl of Aberdeen, sec
onded the address in the House of Lords in
favor of Catholic Emancipation. From that
time he took leading part in all debates
relating to Ireland, and. oftentimes on the
Liberal side of the house. In all probability
the succession will be disputed, as he had
no SON and heir. Mrs. Ellen Howard, widow
of William George Howard, claims that her
son, born in May, 1864, is now Lord Wick
low. She adds, :" With respect to the es-
tates and in Justice to his creditors, l beg to
observe THAT my husband was tenant-in tail
in remainder, and was at the time of his
death preparing to set aside a most unjust
re- settlement of the estates forced upon
him. sHis'will, made for the purpose, will,
hope, enable me to establish my absolute
claim on the property, and satisfy all just
claims due by him." Nj. 0ctavius O'Brien,
of Dublin; solicitor, denies the legitimacy
of the above claim on-behdlf of Charles,
Earl of Wicklow"
