| Nero TO Persisn rule, was sent back, with
a refusal of Russian agents to continue

| New York, l9.-HerGLd'S Limerick:
| A large force Of military and police pro-
| ceeded, under the command Of Msjor
Vandelim, of the Ninth Regiment, and
| Major Rolleston, Of the ROYAL Marines,
to-day, to New Pallss, County Limerick,
| to aid the sheriff in eviclions upon an es-
tate. Early on the march the force was
met by a large bo1y Of people, who fol-
lowed them, yelling, shouting and pelt-
ing them with stones. Amid a shower of
| missiles the sheriff succeeded, after much
difficulty, in evjcting few families. He
then proceeded with his escort to dis
tant part OF the estate, but it was diseov-
cred that the people had left their homes,
and had taken possession OF large castle
upon the estate, which they had loop
holed and put into q thorough state Of
defense. aud had rendered it so impreg-
nable that the idea Of disIodging the oc-
cupsnts and executing the writs was
abandoned for the day. Stones still con-
tinued to be showered upon the police
and military, and so threatening was the
aspect OF the people who thronged round
the force, that Major Rolleston ordered
the police to load their rifles and the mil
itary to fix bayonets, and warned the peo-
pie that If they persisted in their hostile
conduct he should read the riot act, and
If they did not dispense within q short
time he should feel It his most painful
and awful duty to order the constabulsry
to fire and the soldiers to charge. The
warning had the desired effect and the
people dispersed, but not before Lieut..
Gowsn, of the Ninth, had received q
blow from cHdgel. -Four per- ons have
been arrested, including Gowan's ssssil-
ant. Tomorrow morning, a flying
column, with four pieces Of artillery,
will proceed with the sheriff to execute
writs upon the people in the castle.
