ANTRIM.

AMIR NJ.
Another accident of very melancholy
nature occurred on the morning of Sep
tsmker l4th, near the gods station OF
the Great Northern Railway, at Belfast
whereby a young man named James
Mayrs was run over bya passing tram
and Instantly killed. It appears that
deceased, whose duty it WAS TO take the
numbers Of outgoing trains, was coming
round the corner Of a point-box, at the
junction Of the goods and passenger
lines, and not observing the approaching
engine, went On to the line, and was
caught and knocked dawn, the wheels
passing over his head, which was crushed
in q shocking manner. Death was in
Simultaneous. Deceased was only short
time in the employment of the company.
ARMAGH.
At the Petty Sessions in the Town
Hall Portadown, on September 10Th,
District Inspector Bonis, addressing the
presiding justices, said be desired to say
a few words to their worships before
they proceeded with the business of the
court. For some time past there had
been very considerable disorder going on
in many parts of the town; stones were
thrown at night, windows were being
broken, and persons were being attacked.
The police had great deal to do at
present, aud really they were not able to
cope with the disorder. He therefore,
thought it was his imperative duty to
ask their worships to intiiet the severest
punishment in all cases Of riotous con
duct and drunkenness until order
was restored. The chairman, Mr..
Johnston, said the magistrates did not
pass over such casss lightly, but they
would have to deal with each case on it's
merits How smiable these Castle-ap-
pointed magistrates are to the favored
cowdles of Portadown! Merits, indeed!
The word is significant, coming from an
Orange bench, when even the head po-
liceMan has to protest even so mildly
against the notorious partisarship that
distinguishes these decisions.
CARLOW.
On Sept 9th, the golden jubilee Of
Mother Mary Paul Cullen wac celebrated
with great eclat at the Convent Of Mercy,

against John Frawley, seized number
of Mulch COWS and young stock, which

a number of writs and DEGREES on the
Bodyke estate of Colonel John O'Callag-
han, for rent. The first farm visited was
that of Martin Moloney, Of Clonmoher,
which was reached at three o'clook in
the morning. Notwithstanding the early
hour, it was at once seen that all the
tenants in the neighborhood were on the
qui vive. Horns were blown, and crowd
quickly collected, which groaned the
Sheriff's party fercely. It was found
that all the stock had been driven off
the lands, and finding himself forestalled,
the Sheriff made rapid dasn FOR the
farm OF D. Caliaghan, Ballyd ddahane,
some miles away, whore q surprise was
