OOO. The light is to be a flash-revolving one of the firstclass. .  Eleven of the thirteen persons who were arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the murder of Connor at Carrick, in Westmeath, have been discharged. We find from an article in the Cork Examiner that a movement has commenced in that city for the encouragement of the growth, spinning, and manufac• ture of flax.  We understmd that Mr Samuel Irvine, licmtiate of the Dromore Presbytery, has received a call from the congregation of Second Dunbo, in the Presbytery of Coleraine. The Cork Examiner announces the death of Sir John Warren, which took place on Friday night at his seat at Warren's Court. He is succeeded in the baronetcy by his eldest son, Augustus. At ten o'clock on Saturday night, Mr Gamble's provision store on Morrison's Quey, Cork, was discovered to be on tire. There is no information as to the origin of the fire, or as to whether the premises were insured. We have no complaints of want now from any part of the country; and if only half the Irish railway projects which have been laid before the Board of Works received the sanction of Parliament, there will be ample employmeat for the people next year. The U.S. ironclad Kearsage appeared off Cork harbour on Monday, and sent in 16 men which she shipped secretly about a month ago, contrary to the Foreign Enlistment Act. The men were brought in by a pilot cutter. The Kearsage still remains off the harbour.  The late disastrous gale was general throughout Ireland. Nearly all the provincial journals contain accounts of its severity ; but luckily no calamity of any consequence, except the wreck of the Portrush, is mentioned by them. In this sad disaster no less than six lives were lost. The vessel wrecked was the Providence. from Campbelton to Portrush. At the Capel Street Police Office, Dublin, on Thursday, Michael Moran and his wife were brought up on remand, to answer the charge of having set fire to their house, on Ellis's quay, with a view to defraud the Patriotic Insurance Company. Informations were taken against the male prisoner, who was committed for trial. His wife was discharged, there being no evidence to warrant a prosecution against her. On Thursday afternoon a most destructive fire, resulting in low of property to the amount of £lO,OOO, broke out in a large corn-store of Mr William Cochrane, commission-agent, situated at the Steamboat Quay, in connection with the public offices and storehouses of the City of Dublin Steam-Packet Company, in which property to a large amount was destroyed. The entire of the buildings, including the stores of Mr Cochrane and the City of Dublin Steam Packet, were totally and quickly consumed; not a vestige of the property of any kind escaping. Two horses and a mule were burnt to a cinder. Four men who were engaged on the premises when the fire broke out had a narrow escape of being burned to death. Owing to the prevalence of a high wind the burning was rapid and destructive, and defied all exertions to suppress it. We learn that both Mr Cochrane and the Steam-Packet Company were insured for the full amount of loss sustained—the former for £3OOO in the London Liverpool, and the QOM* and Wm) lilttsr kw 4340.
