SOLICITOR. GLNERAL. It appeared that Mrs. Toun.tscE was murdered on the 10th of June last, in consequence of the resistance made by her and her husband, to a party demanding arms at their house, in the Liberties of Limerick, on the Sth of March last. Mr. O'GORMAN was Counsel for the pri. soners. The Court was crowded during the trial. [From the Cork Intelligencer of Tuesday.] Yesterday evening a roan named Matthew Connel was brought into this city, from the neighbourhood of Kanturk, under a strong escort of the 22d regiment, charged with taking a gun, the property of John Boyce, Esq. Ile was committer by George Purcell and William Allen, Esqrs. two active Magistrates of this county. We have unquestionable authority for stating, that several of those nocturnal depredators who have infested the neighbourhood of Charleville, and the borders of the county, adjoining the county of Limerick, have been arrested and lodged in the Bridewell at Charleville. We cannot say more on the subject at present, but shall in our next give further particulars. We regret to be obliged to state, that, notwithstanding the Resolutions entered into by the Magistracy and Gentry of West Muskerry, in Macroom, on Thursday last, and the favourable report given there of the peaceable state of that part of the county, the spirit of disaffection has began to make its appearance. On Saturday night, about thirty gentlemen, in and from the neighbourhood of Macroom, well armed, patroled the country some miles round, and met with no interruption—yet, on the same night, a party of marandet's were on the alert, and attacked different houses, some of them within two miles of Macroom, and succeeded in taking arms. This infringement on the quiet of this hitherto peaceable district has roused the activity of the Magistrates and Gentry, and they commenced yesterday a general search for arms indiscriminately ; with what effect we have not yet heard ; but, from the local knowledge and general unanimity which prevails there, we have no doubt but those laudable endeavours will be crowned with success. There are no troops quartered in Macroom, though there is a large military force in this county ; but the necessity for them in those parts more immediately disturbed, and the very heavy duty they have to perform, induces the supposition that few, if any, can be spared. Letter from the Neighbourhood of Castledermott.—" Some days ago there was a riot in Castledermott of a very serious aspect, but fortunately put a stop to by the sudden arrival of a body of one hundred police, horse and foot. We have every reason to hope that the security of this district will be kept up by the great attention and activity of our Chief Magistrate, who has apprehended and committed to Athy gaol a man charged with having murdered his uncle some months back in the county of Kilkenny, and another, supposed to be one of the murderers of Lieutenant Laurence in th'e Queen's county. All within this district is well watched, but beyond its borders, I understand, there are frequent nocturnal meetings."  We hear that his Grace the Lord Primate re-:. . fused to grant a Faculty to the Rev. Archdeacon Langrishe, to hold the- Union of Carlow and Killeshin, with his present Benefice of Newcastle ; in consequence of which he has been obliged to give up Carlow, and retain only Kil• leshin. Thus, after being united for two hundred years, these contiguous Benefices are divided. We hear that Mr. George V. Vernon is to be appointed to Carlow.—(Cartozo Morning Post.)
