      _DISPOSITION OF THS _PiJCFLB . T _ correspondent of the Tims , writes , it woa d Le wrong to say that although ireason has been overawed it hv . been entirely reprefsed . I hive thar & ost _sm-Je ! 3 riliti-3 for ob £ ervin > r the .-ic _' . ual _eondiiior ! of the c _ n ., and I lament to say iiu _. the people are deep _^ end widely _dissfficted ; _t-ra * _. they do not _accep-. h . - fight at Boula . h Comm . s as anything mot . than a temporary _defea _" . I _h-ive the _fuiiest _evi'ie-ce of tbis—evidence whi _ rea _.-hes me br different channels , and is of the most vari _ _i complexion . The sullen and dissatisfied aspect of tbe peasantry however ia of itself _sufficient to show tint mischief is still brewing — the guarded manner in which thsy evade yeur _questions shows the suspicion _•! distrust whieh is abroad— the £ _ is __ _rucmur . v _ . ' _-c __ t t ' _sey have so industriously propagated show thei ? _desire not to abandon their position—aF . d ab _:-ve al , the tenacity with which thsy conceal the

      loss rusuined by them on Saturday . aerifies tae graven apprehensions . When an Irishman foregoes the _fa-. ieral obsequies of his fri-nd , there are strong re __ s for it . Wiien he _bHries him in secret and _conceal-i his fall , there ara deep and cogent grounds for sis _conduct . None of the peasantry bere will _acknc . edge tbat more than two of the _iDsnrgents have titer , killed , or more than five or sis wounded , yet it is beyond all d _ bt that eleven or twelve ofthe _conib-tant _. aie dead , and many more are seriously hurt , and that the amount of loss on tbe part cf the rebels greatly _exceeds onr inforinaiien . The party in widow Coraa . k ' B house fired altogether 250 shots , each man beine a £ 0 : d __ „ man _at-d taking a _stesdy _aica . _ r Trant before the action _coramenctd tbi . then-, with characteristic coolnes ? , that he expect- 'd a man for every cartridge , and from alt that I can hear I believe the men did their best to aet up to tiifse . instruction *

      Tae re is no longer any doubt that ths _peasantry in ths south of Ireland are deeply snd desperately dirsifected ; that whatever thsy may bs in external appearance , they are all , or n . arly so , rebels at hear ; _;? hat almost every man among -kern is ar . _ ed , and braves the law by retaking his " weapons ; that , in _sh-rr , nothing ia wanted to make the rebellion of 1348 beta formidable and extensive bat the presence ot _leaders skilled in the conduct of warlike ope . rations _.

This man , who ia of a weak and

      sickly appearance , went into the doctor ' s shop , and sitting down iu a chair said he required instant bleed * ing . The assistant behind the counter volunteered to do the job ; but the patient would permit no one to operate but his friend , ' the doctor , ' and stripped off bis coat and bared his arm for the lancet . The shopman was completely taken eff his guard , and summoned the doctor from tha top of tho house , where he had been lying concealed . He was about feeling the man ' s pulse , when the latter produced his warraat and carried off his prisoner to the next police station . It is reported that documents and correspondence of a moat treasonable nature were found in West ' s possession , basides a warrant of bis appoint _, ment to a post of high command in the army of Siievenamon .

      _Fridav , Aug . L—Accounts from the county inform us that Mr O'Gormanhas been _figuring in this neighbourhood , _whers he made his appearance on Thursday . The neighbourhood of Abbeyfeale _, iu the county Limerick , was the head-quarters of Captain Rook in the memorable year , 1822 , There he held his camp , and thence he issued his proclamations . After _addressing the mob , he beat a retreat to the village of Athea , and _sscn after his departure it was discovered tbat a policeman , in coloured clothes , had been in the _pla : e . This unfortunate man was on bis way back te _Newcastle , from whonce he had come , when he was pursued by a baker and nailor on horseback and brought back te the village , when he was stripped naked , and some money , a letter , and a pistol taken from hita . He was then sent towards Athea , to be dealt with as the' General'might determine , but was afterwards released , and allowed to return home .

The inquest was -t ended by one of the local magistrates . Mr Going , of Ballyphillip , by Mr Fitznaurice , R . M _., as well as hy Genoral M'Donald and the officers of his staff . The Coroner first took the evidence relating to the death of M'B _ de , and called

      John M'Bride , brother of the deceased , who , being sw _. rn , deposed that on Saturday last he heard hi . brother was shot at Farronrory , aear the _Commoiri , and went in that _direction , when he met Bome -flc-n carrying him boms on a door ; asked him what wss the matter with bim , when he replied , ' Oh , I ' m killed .

In Teferenee to the ca _ e of the death of the unfortunate man Wash , the Corcner examined

      Anne Wahh , wife of deceased , wbo being sworn _, _deposed—I recollect Saturday last . My husband went to work at breaking stones , about six o ' clock I s _ w crowds of people going to the Commons , and that morning about twelve o ' clock heard some shots , but cannot Ray how many . I then went to the widow Cormack ' _s house , wbere ths shots _eeemsd to be firing , and _ aw my husband lying on tbe field outside the wall of the house . I was going oyer to him , when two guns were put out of the highest windows ofthe _hou . e , and some persons inside cried out to me to go back , or they would let the light through me . Thera was not a man near _thehause _. or any other person except myself and my husband , and another man wbo waB laying at the wall of the house _slruygling lor life . The Rev . Mr _Filzgerald then came up , and I asked him to interfere to get my husband ' s bedy , that I might bring it home to wake it .

THE ACCURATE INFORMATION POSSESSED BY THB AUTHORITIES .

      0 :. Friday an effort was made to arrest the editor of ths Cohs Soothers Reporter . A police force entered the office of the paper , and inquired for Mr Barry , but he was not tobe found , it waa understood , however , that ha was subsequently taken at _Blackwall by a sub-inspector cf police , who , on finding him absent from the office , had proceeded towards his residence . An evidence of the _vigi ' ant supervision exercised by the authorities , and of the accurate information possessed by them , is presented in the fact that two young gentlemen of a respectable class , named Hopper , who had only ar rived from _Eaglacd on Saturday last , and who are in the confederacy , were arrested in Bannigher on Wednesday . ( We take tfee following from an Irish paper . )

Mr Jackson and his friends = tatc lhat Doheny had not been been at his residenoe during the last month . Two pieces of artillery were received here yesterday .

The suspension of the _Ilabea-i Corpus Aot drove S .

      FOREIGN SYMPATHY . The government having received infermatior . to the _effect that supplies of arms , ammunition and food , intended for _ e uso of the rebel army in Ireland , had been shipped from France and Amerioa , have taken effectual measures to prevent the landing of these mischievous consignments . In addition to the fleet afc Cove , and the steam frigates , nine sloops of war have rece _. vtd orders to cruise off the Irish coast . — Dublin Evening Herald .

      _Nbnaoh August 3 . _—Yesterday two French travellers , their air soldiery , came by canal to Limerick , and without stay proceeded at once by steamer dowa the estuary of the Shannon to Kilrusb , whose defences they _examiaed , and were found , by the direction of their reconnoitring glasses , to be also eyeing the forts of Tarbert on the opposite side , and others around _. Same tide tbey returned to Limerick , and their conduot was so suspicious that they are thia day at examination before the maeistratee .

      ARREST OF MR SMITH O'BRIEN , ( From the Correspondent of the Times . ) _Thuries _, Saturday Night . —Tbis evening , at eight o ' clock , Mr Smith O'Brien was arrested in tbe town of Thurles . just as he was on the point of leaving for Limerick . The arrest was made without the slightest resistance either on the part of the prisoner or the paopla . and the infatuated _ bel chief is now on his way to Dublin . He waa recognised in passing through the principal street of Thurles by — Hulme , a guard in the employ of the Great Southern Railway Company . Mr O'Brien asked him the way to the railway station , and Ilulme _havinganswered the question , immediately sent off for reinforcements . He himself followed Mr O'Brien to the station . On

      arriving there Mr O'Brien asked for a s _ ond-ola _ s ticket to Limerick , the price of which he paid . Hia manner was so embarrassed that the clerk noticed it , and particularly the tremor of the hand , He did not , however , recognise his face . Having given more money than was sufficient to pay tbe fare the clerk returned him 6 d . change , but he took no notice of this , and was walking away , when the clerk called him baok . On hia return he asked whioh was the right platform to go to , and being told that it vraa that opposite where he stood , he crossed the line to get to it . There be was immediately arreBled by Hulme , wbo commanded him to surrender himself in the Queen ' s name , and seized his arm to prevent any resistance or the use of a weapon . Head-constable

      Hanover , D , who held the warrant for his arrest , immediately assisted Hulme , and Mr O'Brien wa . at once disarmed of a small pistol which he carried in his waistcoat pocket , and which was the only weapon he had about him . The reinforcement which Hulme had the prudence to send for , and which consisted partly of _pqlioe and partly of soldiers , now arrived , and Mr O'Brien was at once conductea to the gaol , where arrangements were made for his lodgment during the night . General M'Donald , however , wi . e _' y determined to send the prisoner without a moment ' s delay , to Dublin , and accordingly , in an incredibly short space of time , a troop of dragoons and a detachment of infantry were drawn out as an escort to the station . In the meantime the people

      began to assemble in croups , tbe voices of women were heard waiing eloquently rebellious , and every moment increased the signs of popular agitation . General _M'Donald ' _s arrangements , however , were made and carried out with the greatest exf edition and precision . Tho entrance to the gaol was cleared by the police , a strong body of infantry held the _statioD _. and a troop of cavalry swept the streets clear of the crowds that hsd assembled there . Tbe shopkeepers were imperatively ordered to close their doors , and the General himself entered one or two where a disposition wa _^ shown to disobey his orders . and struck terror into the inmates . In _ooneeqaence

      of these vigorous measures not the slightest diffiaulty was experienced in conveying Mr O'Brien from tbe gaol to the station . He was taken / there on a oar , whioh was _ako occupied by Mr Gore Jones and Captain Fitsmaurice , the resident magistrate , and by General M'Donald , A strong escort of infantry and police accompanied the prisoner , who was safely placed in a special train previously prepared for the purpose of conveying him to Dublin . Mr O'Brien occupied the centre seat in tbe carriage , and in tbe same compartment were Lieutenint Alexander M'Donald , four armed policemen , andtl _ _sub-inapeO ' tor of constabulary at Thurles . The train started on its way a few minutes after ten o ' clock .

      Dublin- , Sunday Mormxo 6 o ' clock . —Mr O'Brien has arrived , and bas been safely _lodged in the Royal Barracks here by Lieutenant Macdonald , to whose care his father , the General , intrusted the prisoner . Mr O'Brien was prohibited from speaking or moving on the way on pain of instant death . He therefore tried to Bleep , but his efforts were not successful . His manner during the journey was upon the whole confident and self-possessed , though the uneasiness of his mind would occasionally betray itself in his face , and in the _reatlees _mannerin which he changed hia position from time to time . I could see that anxiety of mind and poraonal exposure have left deep traces behind them on his features . On reaching the Dublin terminus he walked to the barracks , guarded by a party of thirty policemen , who had accompanied him by the train . Viscount Hardinge left down this day to take command of the troops at Clonmel .

      I am this moment informed that Mr O'Brien ha " _J been sent to Kilmainbam , under the same escort as that which accompanied him to Dublin . Prince George ef Cambridge has thus lost no time in providing for his safe keeping . The news of Mr O'Brien ' s arrest , although arriving at the untimely hour of two this morning by Bpecial engine from Thurles , flew like wildfire over town . Even at this early hour the subject forms the topic of discussion at every street corner . People appear panic-stricken at the fate of the leader of the insur * gent army .

      ( From the correspondent ofthe Daily Neivs _. ) Mr O'Brien purchased a second-class ticket for the town of Tipperary in the station , and was crossing over to tbe passengers platform when he wai seized by Hulme , who bad in tbe meantime told the few police who were in the _Btation then to be on the alert . They also rushed upon him and effeotually sec-red him . A _byestander foolishly attempted tc interfere , crying out to Hulme , ' you _sha _' nt take him , ' when a member of the detective police , who was on tke platform at the moment , presented a pistol at this person's head , and effectually put a stop to bis display of sympathy . O'Brien was removed to the Bridewell in a few minutes _afterwards . Mr Gore Jones , the stipendiary magistrate of the locality and Mr Fitzmorris , tbe stipendiary magistrate who

      has been acting with the military , were in attendance there as quiokly as possible , and with the utmost expedition completed the forms necessary to the transmission of the prisoner to the metropolis . I was informed by a gentleman who had gained admission into the gaol , that O'Brien , pending the arrival of tbe police who were selected to escort him to Dablin , entered into conversation with the officials whe were present . It being observed to him that the general impression ra that county was that he bad succeeded in making his escape from Ireland , he said , in reply , that he had remained among the people until he found it useless to attempt remaining any longer . His presence had become a constant source of terror to them , and he had made up bis mind to leave the hills rather than run the risk of

      bringing down upon those whe sheltered him the penalties to whieh they became liable for so acting . The _Febemak's Jourkal gives the following particulars ot Mr Smith O'Brien since his arrival at Kilmainham : — Od the arrival of Mr O'Brien with his escort at _Kllresinha-. Giol , ha was conducted at once iato the interior , and was _eliovm into the registrar ' s room , whilst arrangements were _making for bis recaption , nnd tho usual entry made in the pri . on books . Mr O'Brien was reoeived by the deputy-governor with _oourtosy and rea . pact . When ho reached the prlien Mr O'Brien was onveloped in a large dooble-lined clo _ cr _travelling wrapper of dark frieze . This he wore over hia usual costume . Some brief delay t-klng _pbes , Mr O'Brien inquired how '

      soon ho would bo shown the room he was to occupy he expressed himself very much fttligaea _. _and intimated ' his wish to bo allowed to tuk . some rost . He was at onco conducted to a lock-up room , where a bed was placed aud oa reaching it he proceeded to dispose himself to take some _repote _, after his long j _jurney by railway , and , probably , a fatiguing walk across the country to Thurles , previous to h ' s _arreat . The officer in charge of the pri ' . son , however , deeming tbat some _reffeshnsent was neces-» ary for hi . prisoner , tod tea , & c , , got ready and brought up to bim . Mr O'Brien partook of it , and _thBnked the officer for his opportune attention . He then Blept uninterruptedly until nine o ' clock , when be was served with breakfast . He breakfasted beartily , and , oa we could horn , appeared self possessed and cheerful during the morning .

      Mil O ' BRIBN AflBR HIS ARREST . The Freeman expresses the feelings of the Repealers on the _arieat of Mr O'Brien , in an article from which we take the following passages : — Never , perhaps , within the memory of the _proient generation , waB the public _miud of Dublin more deeply swayed by anxiety than on Sunday , tho 6 _ of Augusta dBy of remarkable import to Ireland — the day that gave birth to Daniel O'Connell , and a prison to Smith O'Brien . No sooner had the _depressing intelligence that Smith O'Brien had been apprehended ani

      commilled ior ' high t . _»_ ' been diffused , than anxious inquirers flocked trom every quarter of the city to learn the p & r . _icvilars ot an _eTent fraught wiih so many pain _, fal feeling * and recolleotlons .

Wearied and worn , from lone and painful watching , and fearing that to accept the protection of tbe peB . _anv ' - _flre-aWe mig ht direot the vengeance of the law « n the innocent , he determined never again to lay his head beneath roof other than his own , and ia pursuance of that stern and herolo resolution he turned his _wandering footsteps one . - __ or __ towards _home—oareleno of personal _comeq-ences , provided only the injury and thoruln toll upon himself alone .

One of his first aots on reaoh ing the gaol was to take off hia shoes and . bakings , his feet to all appearance being much swollen from T _? _aI-C 1 I 1-7 He looks emaciated . The expression of his eye waa wild aa that of a man who had been subjeot to very great excitement . Beyond an appearanoe of utter prostration of mind and body , which might be the natural result of what he has gone through , there was nothing either in bis appearance or speeoh to warrant the opinion that h . has been for some time

      insane . To all questions put to him aB to where he hadbeen , and what were his intentions , ands _. on , ho save the moat consistent auawew , bu ( i , at the aame time with the manner of a man so suffering from excitement that hia intellect was unstrung . He mouired most _affeotionately after Meagher , Dillon , and his other companions . He was under the _impreasion that it was Dillon , and not young Stephens , of Kilkenny , who had been . hot at Ballingarry . He asked for tea . He was treated with considerable attention , but with a due regard to the awful stake he had at issue . When they were about to bring in a sofa to the room where he was , he declined to have It and said he would sleep on it in another _* o _. _

      ad-O'Brien said be had felt it impossible te hold out any longer , as all his friends bad forsaken him . He eaid , ' I w _ promised the support of a nation , to drive the English from the country .

Hia whole demeanour was that of a man jaded and prostrate . His expression , that of _indesoribablo despair . ( From the Times . )

      ARRESTS AT WATKRFJRD . August 5 —At about two o ' clock to-day , hearing tbe bell of one ef the Catholio chapels tolling violently , I ran into the street to inquire the cause , and found the police ferce in motion , and the townspeople flocking together . On inquiry , I learned that Thomas _Franois Strange , Esq ., solicitor , and presi dent of the Felon Club , was arrested and lodged in the King-street _police-slation . Proceeding farther on , I found the police searching for other prisoners ; they took into cuBtody Mr Supple , glover ; Mr Patriek M'Auliffe , _clstbier ; Mr Fogarty , assistant to surgeon Kenney ; and Thomas William Condon , a whitesmith , seoretary to the Wolfe Tone Olub , a man of superior abilities . Torrents of rain , just at

      that moment , cleared the streets most effeotually . About an hour after the arrests , the prisoners were taken through the widest streets , and by a cirouitous route to the gaol . When they were entering the prison gates , tbe scene baffles all description ; the women wishing that they were men to take revenge , _abuaing theoowardioe of the olubB , and venting tbeir _indignation in curses , loud and deep , against the ' Feelers . ' On the return of the esoort , stones were unsparingly thrown amongst the police . One woman was arrested by them , but rescued by the others , the police not deeming it prudent to use their fire-arm ? . A troop of _dragooons , with Sir Charles O'D _. nnell and MrTabuteau , R .

      OF MR W . _ . SMITH O'BRIEN . ( From the Special Reporter of the Cork Examiner of Monday . ) Sundav Morviw ., Eiobt o'clock . —Having intimated to you , in my despatch of yesterday , my _intention of prcceeding to Thurles , and from thenoe towards Keeper Hill , I accordingly left Cashel for that tiwn at three o ' olock yesterday evening . I reached Cashel shortly after five o ' clock . The town and neighbourhood were perfectly quiet . Having walked ahout the suburbs _^ for some time , I proceeded towards the Thurles terminus of the Great Southern and Western Railway , which placo I reached about t _ minutes to eight o ' olock . The officer ou the station told me that the Dublin train would be in at eight o ' olock , and that tbe Limerick train would start immediately after . Having an anxiety to see them start , I made up my mind to wait for a short period .

      It wanted but a few minutes of eight o'clock , when I perceived a gentleman cross from the town side towards the station . I know not why , but I assure you my entire attention waa _instastly _abaerbed by him . He wore a black bat , a blue boat cloak , in which he was rather tightly _isu __ , and a light plaid liko trousers ; he carried rather a large black stick in bis right hand . He entered the office _, and as he passed me , with what feelings I oannot describe to you , I _recognised ths features of William Smith O'Brien .

      There were at this time not more than one doz _ persons in the vicinity of the station , five or six of whom were gentlemen who had engaged places in the Limeriok train ; the others were three policemen , and some one or two railway officers , with two fellows , rather decently dressed , whom I afterwards discovered to be * detectives . ' Mi O'Brien entered the office . I watched his movements with the _greatest anxiety—he paid his fare to L _' merick , got his tioket _, and walked out . He again wrapped himself up in his cloak , and , folding his arms , walked across the line to the opposite side . Scarcely had he reaohed the other Bide , when I perceived the guard of the Dublin train pass , from behind the office , and anxiously look in the direction in which Mr O'Brien had eons .

      Mr O'Brien was walking Blowly along the line , awaiting the arrival ofthe Dublin train , by which be was to 8 tart for Limeriok , when this same officer , who is an Englishman , and named Hulme , stole quietly _accross the lice to where Mr O'Brien was , and placing his hand on his collar , said , ' You are the Queen's prisoner . ' Instantly the two detectirea called on the three policemen , and all ran towards Mr O'Brien , each oatohing him by the collar as he approaohed him- At this moment , a young gentleman who was standing by ran towards Mr O'Brien , and stretch , d out his hand to him . No sooner did

      one of the ' detectives , ' who was o ' ad in a white overcoat , percoive this movement , than he drew from either pocket of his coat a double barrelled pistol , and , pointing each at the gentleman , exclaimed , 1 Stand back ! for by heaven , if jou move another foot in advanoe , I sboot you—Policemen draw your bayonets . ' The latter command was quickly obeyed , and the second detective , who walked at the rear of Smith O'Brien , produced two pistols similar to those of his companion who walked in front , each pointing his arms at the beads of any person who attempted to approach them .

      Mr O'Brien , who looked as though he had only made his toilet a few hours _before , was exceedingly pale . Ho seemed moat dejected , and was scarcely able to walk , having to lean back on the policemen who were behind him , and who in the roughest manner possible , shoved him under tbe neok with their open fists , while . two others dragged him by the collar . Ue was taken from tbe station , through the streets of Thurles , and lodged in the gaol ofthe most central town in Tipperary , esoorted by five almost unarmed policomen , and two detectives . fhe only words I heard Mr O'Brien utter were , when his guards were shoving him violently , E isy —take me easy . '

      A _ he was earned through the Btreets , some few persons recognised him , and exclaimed , ' There is Smith O'Brien . ' A number of _wosaen quickly colleotedi and commenced hooting the polioe j but , with this siogle exception , there waa no Bymptom Ofexcitemeat . Mr O'Brien waa then taken up a narrow lane , in which the gaol is _Bituate ; and the troops , who by this time had got tha alarm , were instantly drawn _aoross the _laie , so as to prevent any approaoh thereto . A despatch was immediately forwarded to the encamp _, ment outside tbe town , when troopa instantly were poured into tbe town in vast bodies . Oa my return to the railway office , I could scarcely make my way through the streets , so filled were they with military ; yet the people were unexeited .

      On ray arrival at the office , I perceived the same person who arrested Mr O'Brien dressed in a different costume , and heard him order a special train for Dablin , in which I afterward , learned Mr O'Brien was to ce conveyed . When leaving Thurles all was quiet . Frsm what I saw of the people , I am fully convinced there waB co attempt at rescue . 1 had nigh forgot lo mention that , on inquiry , I _dipcivered that Mr O'Brien , diove in an outside car , mufflad in his cloak , through Thurlea , to the very neighbourhood of the station , from a village distant from tbat town atout three miles , and lying towards Keeper Hill .

      TBS STATE TRIALS . Dublin , Tuesday Evening . — The Commission opened to-day , at the __ _Court-hous .. _George- street _. The Chief Baron , in hia charge to the City Grand * Jury , referred at considerable length to the bill , of in . _diotment prepared by the Crown under tho Treason Felony Act .

Clerk of the Court : Charles Gavan Duffy , are you guilty or not ? The prisoner , by the advice of bis agent , abstained frsm making any reply . Sir Coleman O'Loghlen applied for a copy ofthe _iniiiotment , as a favour and not _ a matter of right , which was refused , on which the learned counsel said , it weuld be necessary to have it read out slowly _tVee times . Some further discussion arose on the _artioles seized by the Crown , which were not printed , and which the _coonsel for the traverser never saw . It was finally arranged that the _csbb sbould be postponed until the next morning , for tbe purpose of 88-certaming the opinion of the Attorney-General . The prisoner was then removed to Newgate

      Murder, Op A. Fxtuer I_ His Son —On Satu...

      Murder , op a . _Fxtuer _i _ his Son —On Saturday last , a young man , named John Parker , was committed to the Castle at Lincoln , to take his trial at the ensuing assizes , on a charge of having murdered his father . On the 19 th ult ., the deceased was found dead in his hou 3 e , from the effects of a _gun-shet wound . Circumstances arose , which led to suspicion falling upon the prisoner ; but at the inquest , held on the 20 th of the same month , the jury , after a lengthened inquiry , came to the conclusion that there was not sufficient evidence to justify them in returning a verdict of Guilty against the _priaoner , and he was consequently discharged . The imhabitants , not sati . fied with the result of the

      inquest , caused further inquiries to he made into tbe matter , when additional evidence was obtained , and the prisoner was taken into custody , and brought before the Rev Mr Potchell on Saturday , when he underwent a final examination , . hieh ended „ his being committed as above stated . It appears , the deceased , his wife , and son , lived together in a cottage , at Corby , near Grantham ; the two former led a very disreputable life , and on the day that the alleged murder was committed , the prisoner and the deceased were down stairs , when au altercation took place , and his wife , who was up stairs , heard the

      report of a gun , but although the prisoner told her that 'his father was shot dead , ' his wife did not think necessary to come down and ascertain the fact , or send for medical assistance ! Tha report , however , alarmed the neighbours , and they , consequently , entered the house , when they found the deceased as already described . The prisoner , in defence , said that 'the deceased met with bis death entirely from accident ; that he ( prisoner ) had a gun in his coat pockets , in two parts ; the barrel , which was loaded with powder and shot , fell frora a hole in his pocket , when the contents were discharged , and his father was shot . '

      Extraordinary Whirlwind . —One ofthe most tremendous hurricanes that ever took place in this country occurred here on Thursday week last . Vie have made many inquiries of eye-witnesses and have received from their own lips , in most cases , the following information : —Michael Searle , who keeps the telescope on the chain pier , said he saw , about a mile to the south-west of the pier , what appeared to him to be a very black cloud of a conical shape , and like a large cistern suspended in the air with water pouring from it , or drawn up with it . It approached the pier head , where it seemed to divide and join _, again on the other side of the pier . It kept twisting like a snake . It then got among the bathingmachines , causing tbem to run about the beach , and then rushed up 4 he sea wall , and took a direction

      towards the race course . The length of it was about 50 yards . Apparently , a moment afterwards , a mass of canvass appeared to rise from the race course frora the tents of the booth-keepers . Other occupiers ot the chain pier gave a similar account of the phenomenon . Considerable damage was done to the booths on the race course . A cart , drawn b y a pony , standing near one of the new stands , was blown over several times . Several persons who had been much injured were taken to the hospital . It is _undersiood that some gentlemen intend to raise a subscription for the sufferers . It is fortunate that tbe hurricane took place in tbe morning . Had it come later in the day , when the booths were filled with company , it might have been attended with far more serious consequences . —Brighton Herald .
