LIMERIcK, May 10, 1881.
A large force of military and police
proceeded under command of Major
Vandelim, Of the Ninth regiment, and
Major Rolleston, OF the Royal Marines,
to-day to New PalIas, county Limerick
TO aid the sheriff In eyictions upon an
estate. Early on the march, the force
was met by large body Of people who
followed them, yelling, shouting and
pelting them aith stones. Amid a
shower of missiles the Sheriff succeeded,
alter much difficulty, in evicting few
families. lie then proceeded with his
escort to distant pat OF the estate, but
1t was discovered that the people had
left their homes and had taken posses
sion of large castle upon the estate,
which they had loopholed and put isto d
thorough state Of defence and rendered
SO impregnable that all idea of disIodg-
the occupants and executing the writs
was abandoned fer the day.
Stones still continued TO be showered
upon the police and military. So
threatening was the asuect of the
people who thronged round the force,
that Major Rolleston ordered the polict
TO load their rifles and the military t,
Ak bayonets, and warned the peoplt
that if they persisted in their hosJil,
conduct he should read the Blot act
aud if they did not dispeIse within
short time he s'should feel it his mos
painful and awful duty to order tn
eonstabulary to fire and the soldiers t

effect and the people dispersed, Bu
not before Lieutenant Gowan, of Tia
Ninth, had received blow from
cndgel. -Four persons have been ar
rested, including Gowan's assailant
To morrow morning the flying column
