I ATTEMPTED ABDUCTION IX HIGH LIFE. Unto curt. Sclcrtrti Soctrjj. DUNGAR VAN UNION Thursday. From our Reporter.) The weekly meeting of the guardians was held this day the members present were R.

Lomok, Esq. J. P. in the chair. Also present, Lord Stuart the secretary of the Waterfoid and Limerick Railway Company, against the proprietor of the Waterford Mail, for a series of publications on the 4th, 7th, and 11th of January last, complained of as libels affecting the character of the plaintiff.

On the part of the rjlaintifF the case was, that a dispute havm? arisen attempt at abduction, which illed in its object, was made, at half-past two o'clock Sunday evening, by John Garden, J.l., D.I., of Burnane, Tem-plcmore, a large landed proprietor. The following are the facts of the case, as given in the Ttpiterary Free 'rex: For some tune past Miss Arimuinot. with reference to the proposal to remove the office of l. i iP i the company from Ltmenck to Watcrford, an effort IlllieUl was made by these publications to get rid of the secretary, with a view to facilitate the designs of some of the persons interested. The publications completed of the shares of the company boing depreciated by the under-hand working of some high official in the service of the company and in connection with a charge of misconduct ag ainst the secretary, it was contended that the context showed the party meant by the allusion to be the plaintiff.

A further insinuation complained ol in the last pun- i lication, which was a letter signed A Shareholder," was that the plaintiff had kept back certain proxies a forwarded to him inon the occasion of an election -j lev, the who daughter of the late George Arbuthnot, of; Mr. Fitzgerald opened the case.

June SO. 1804 The cities of Brooklyn and New York, especially the former, whose inhabitants generally speaking are remarkable for their coolness, self-possession, law-abidinz order-loving, and to some extent, anti-Christian princtl pies, have been for some days in a state of intense excitement. Long Island, npon which Brooklyn is situated, was the scene a few days since of one of the most horrifying and brutal murders which the chronicles of infamy have had to record for a long time a gentleman and his wife, remarkable for their philanthropy and kind-heartedness, and a negro boy being the victims, and the assassin a man who is stated to be an Irishman by birth, and who had lived with them fcr wo years.

Tbe only apparent motive he had for perpetrating the dreadful deed was the refusal of the maid servant (Irish also) to marry him, which refusal he ascribed to the influence of Mr. and Mrs. Wickham, for such was the name of those whr in revenge he aci ifieed, in the dead of night, to his fiendish passion. He intended also to murder the girl, but was prevented by the screams of the murdered. He now awaits in gaol tbe condign punishment of the law.

The sensation created by this deed had not yet subsided ere the streets of Brooklyn were thet-ceneofa shameful riot, which, owing to tbe magnifying ions of the telegraph, to the effect that thirty or forty, jn some statements fifty, American citizens had been butchered in cold blood by Irishmen, created great consternation throughout the Union. The real facts of the case are these For some time past, the city of New York has been the theatre of a scene of the most intolerant bigoted, and unchristian exhibitions of religious" fan' ticismbya maniac whose theme is the Pope, Catholics and Irishmen. This mountebank gonerally selects the most conspicuous places to be found, holding forth generally from thc steps of the City llall.whore he is guarded by a body of Know-Nothings," who say they are only protecting the liberty of speech. Not fiading many inclined to trouble him in his ravings here, he took himself to Brooklyn, with a body-guard of 300 or 400 Know-Nothings, and there in a locality inhabited almost entirely by natives of Ireland, and opposite a Catholic church, he vociferated the most horrible blasphemies and when tired, he proceeded to impart hit benediction to all, not even, he saidexecpting the foreigners. In anticipation of this demonstration, the Mayor hvl sworn in a considerable number of special constables, who, together with the regular force, were present under his command.

II. Smythe, C. (with whom was Mr. Black-ham), moved, upon behalf of the petitioner, Henry Joseph Boyer, the next of kin of Richard Downs Boyer, deceased, for liberty to traverse thc finding of the inquisition in this case, under which certain landed property to the convict William Burke Kirwan, who was tried, found guilty, and sentenced to be executed, for the murder of his wife Sep- tember, 1852, was declared to be forfeited to the crown under the followin circumstances It I appeared that the interest of Richard Downs Bowyer amounted to .163 a vear, and the allegation was I that he conveyed it to Kirwan for t'800, subject to an annuity of 10 a year to his wife, Mrs. Boyer, and that soon after the execution of the deed of conveyance he was missed, and never heard of until after Kirwan 's conviction for the murder of his wife, when there were stroijg reasons for I believing that he (Boyer) had been made away with.

The petition then wenton to say that since the conviction of Kirwan a claim was made to this pro- pcrty by a person named Teresa Maria Kenny, on foot of a deed, and that her claim was decided to be unfounded; and that George Townlev Balfour Dar- ling had called on Mr. Alexander" M'Neale, the petitioner's solicitor, and informed him that he had Tn: l- i-: ooiauieu jrwin miss Jveniiey, uiii.iiigst ivuwuua pa- TWn. 1W- 1, i i I i i i Mi.nv,nersoiisfearlBn,bpr; wa frjzen 5 oclicves other vessels ar-' COCUT OF QL' KEN'S BENCH.

The plaintiffs case having closed. Mr. WluV side addressed the jury for the defence. He commenced by repelling the insinuation Mr. Moore knew of what wasoccuring in the Gulf of St.

The defence was that owiii" to the severe weather on the vova-re out. and the injury sustained by the vessel, which is a flow s-iiler and 22 years old, it was impossible to reach Quebec, while other vessels might t'o so.

We copy below a passage from a paper read before the American Geographical Society by Capt. Gibson, lately returned from the East Indies, and bringing with him so ne new f.icts as the tribes of ourang-otitaiigs inhabiting the deserts of that part of the world? He says: My statement of the extraordinary peculiarities of these apparently semi-human beings has led to the expression of so much curiosity to know more them by some, and of scepticism as to the fact of their existence on the part of others, that I have deemed it due to myself and to the public curiosity to give some additional facts along with all the corroborative evidence that has fallen under my observation. While at Mintock, Palamlmng, and I heard many remarkable stories of the agility, audacity, and especially of the superhuman strength of the onrang-outang. I will trespass upon vour attention bv relating one of the most extraor dinary, at the same time one of the best attested i which I hear while at Batavia Lieut. Shock, of the Dutch ist India army, was on a march with a small detachment of troops and coolies on the south eastern coast of Borneo he had encamped, on one occasion, during the noon-day heat, nn the banks of one of the small tributaries of the Bangarmassin.

The lieutenant had with him his domestic establishment, which include 1 his daughter a playful and interesting little girl of the age of thirteen. One day while wandering in the jungle, beyond the prescribed limits of the camp, anil having from the oppressive heat, loosened her garments and thrown them off almost to nudity, the beauty of her person excited the notice of an mr. a'ig-o'itang, who sprang upon her and carried oft. Her piercing screams rang through the forest to the ears of her dozen protectors, and roused every man in the camp. The swift, barefooted coolies were foremost in pursuit and now the cry rings in the agonised father's cars that his daughter is devoured by a binntang again, that an onrang-outang has carried her off.

He rushes, bi.lf phren-zied, with the whole company to the thicket from whence the screams proceeded, and there, among the topmost limbs of an enormous banyan, the father beholds his daughter, naked, bleeding, and struggling in the grasp of a powerful ournng-outang, who held her tightly, yet easily, with one arm, while he sprang li-ditlv from limb to limb, as if wholly unencumbered. It was in vain to think of shooting the monster, so agile was he. 1 he Dyak coolies, knowing the habits of the onrang-outang, and knowing that he will always plunge into the nearest stream when hard pressed, began a system of operations to drive him to the water they set up a great shout, throwing'missiles of all kinds, and agitating the underbush, while some pto-cegded to ascend the tree. By the redoubled exertions of the whole company the monster was gradually driven towards the water, yet still holding tightly to the poor L'irl. At last, the monster and Ins victim were seen on an outstretched limb overhanging the stream the coolies, who arc among the expertest swimmers in the world, immediately lined the banks; the soldiers continued the outcries and throwing of missiles.

He clasped his prize more tightly, took a survey of the water and of his upward-gazing enemies, "and then leaped into the flood below. He had hardly touched the water ere fifty resolute swimmers plunged in pursuit as he rises a dozen arms are reached out towards him lie is grasped others lay hold on the insensiblo eirl the ourang-outang used both arms to defend, and, after lacerating the bodies of some of the coolies with his powerful nervous claws, finally succeeded in diving beyond the reach of his pursuers end in escaping down the stream, while the bleeding insensible Lcdah was restored to the arms of her father and nurses, in whose hands she was ultimately restored to consciousness, health, and strength once more. This savage version of the classic story of I'luto and Proserpine is well authenticated, and the girl, now a grown-up woman, is at Amboyna, in the Molucas. mottoes A vain Man's Motto Win gold nd wear it."

PETITION FROM THE WATERFOHD UNION. To the lliyht Honourable and Honourable the Commons of Great Britain and Ireland in Parliament assembled. The petition of Ihe undersirmerl nrmr law miarr1Tnn in tho Waterford union humblv sheweth.

that thoiirrh vonr petitioners rejoice in the diffusion of all useful knowledge, yet they are of opinion that a thorough knowledge of the and moral duties is of more importance to the Pr than any amount of secular instruction and that if state undertake to provide for the latter, it ought not suPPrt any system whose paid officers would lend themselves to the surmression of the knowledge of God. i "lat. attempt has been made in tho workhouse of I tu0 inspector soon commenced to persecute the schoolmaster, by making several charges against c-juii; ui which were proved to tne satis taction ot a com-miUee of the board to have been groundless and malicious fabi ications. That the guardians applied to the national board fer dismissal of the inspector, as being unworthy to fill his office, and a head inspector (Mr. MoCreedy) was sent down fo re-investigate the case.

After a sham inquiry, he stated that a great noise had been made about a small matter, though two schoolmasters offered to piove on oath that the inspector advised one of them as a friend to have nothing to do with religious instruction. That the inspector had given gratuities from time to time to a former teacher, who bad to resign his office and left the school in a state of great confusion and almost of rebellion against all authority, both human and Divine. That this teacher flogged the toys with greatcruelty, contrary to the rules of the house aud of the national board. 1 bat be very seldom gave religious instruct ion, or caused public prayers to be said. That the pupils made little progress in learning, but great advances both in crime and cruelty towards each other; so that it was aetudly dangerous to enter the school, through fear of beinji violently assaulted.

That your petitioners cannot see on what grounds the inspector awarded him gratuities, unless because he omitted to uive reliirious instmetinn see why he persecuted the present master, who has made fa--i. formation in tne school both as to morality and learning unless it be that he declined to take the friendly advice of thc inspector, to have nothing to do with religious instruction.

This apprehension, however, is both unreasonable and unworthy. As far as the affair has gone Austria, considering the peculiar difficulties of her position, has discountenanced uus- sian encroachment upon Turkey quite as effectively England. In truth for all our boastinu the sin- At nrrl'inil gxr nt Inflflt rtt tllA I' IKIilll I OVPrTl i ment in the cause, may be doubted'on far more rMionnl rrrnnnil, than that of Austria, which is more vitally interested in thc dcleat ol uussian aggression than any other European power, excepting, of course, Turkey. And it is because the new phase of affairs promises to bring to a decisive test the still dotibttul sincerity of our Government that this may be looked on as the turning point of tho war.

If England carries on against Russia a real and not a sham war, the Union Jack nnd thc Tricolour will float over the relics of Sebastopol before six weeks shall have passed, and the Russian Black Sea fleet will no longer exist. A PATRIOT" IN OFFICE. Many of our patriots of thc present Jay arc not composed of the stuff which in other times formed the tribune ot the people. Washington stirun irom most of the favours a liberated and grateful nation was ready to lay at his feet Sheridan died in povcity and in debt, and the great O'Connell left scarcely more after him than would have paid the expenses of his burial. These men knew a patriot's duties, and did their utmost to perform them.

But now, alas the course of the noisy, busy, agitator is changed and from thc platform, where he guides the whirlwind of the popular storm, there is but one step to the government office, where he finds peace from thc turmoil of popular strife, and where, instead of clasping his blceeding country' to his heart, he lays hold of bright sovereigns and puts them in his pocket A case of this description has occurred in Drnghc-da this week.

The military, nearly all of whom were Irish, were called out, and order was soon restored by them.

He was accompanied on this occasion by a minor luminary, one of tbe strong-minded women named Margaret Bishop, who has for a long time past done a fair business np town ia a shop which she opened and carried on on her own hook" they used the most infamous invective against the Catholics, which so much excited the Know-Nothings that they set upon a uumber of unofrcnlin" Irish Catholics and beat them cruelly. Two hundred additional police were called out, and a large number of the rioters having been arrested, order is restored.

If Ihe strong arm of thc law does not soon put an end tn these blasphemous exhibitions, and tbe respectable portion of the American public oppose with energy this Know-Nothing p-irty spirit, the consequences will be, no doubt, the disaffection of seven eighths of the foreign population the stamina of tbe country the destruction of the peace of society, and perhaps a bloody and terrible war of races. In the House of Representatives at Washington there was a riot of another kind yesterday, burin" a debate Mr. Churchwcll accused Mr. Collum of being liar and a scoundrel, when the latter drew a pistol, cocked it, and would have fired only he was caught by the arm and arrested. The leading California journals agree in the supposition that the recent arrest of the French consul there for having aided the Mexican consul in getting up an expedition to the frontiers of Mexico to assist Santa Annals likely to disturb the good feeling existing between this government and that of his Majesty Napoleon III.

The recent letter of our distinguished Archbishop in reply to Gen. Cass, a member ol Congress, has been the principal topic of discussion since its publication. It embraces many subjects, including the case of thc Madiai to which Geueral Cass.inhis recent speech in the Senate drew his special attention. The Archbisliop conclusively argues that it was a greater act of intolerance and cruelty for a mob to burn down, some years ago, a convent in Charlestown, Massachusetts, which bad been birlt under the sanction of the law, and for which the State Legislature as lately as eighteen months ago refused to indemnify the owners, tlian for the Tuscan government to imprison the Madiai who went, in opposition to warning to violate the acknowledged laws there. The whole tetter, like everything that comes from the pen of his Grace, is a prfect masterpiece of reasoning and loic.

Cholera, which appeared a few days ago in Boston, has broken out in this city, and is doing fearful destruction about a wretched locality known as the Five Points, and in other localities where crime, poverty, and filth exist.

Sir Perhaps you may consider it presumptuous on my part to request a space in your talented journal to make a few remarks to the ratepayers of this union.

It appears that economy is the order of the day in the poor houses in this unhappy land, and I am mnch surprised it has not been more fully carried out in the poor house here. From the report of tlie proceedings in your journal (the only paper that reports them, for which you deserve lasting credit), I perceive that it has not occurred to tbe sagacious minds of the guardians to take into consideration the salary of the Protestant chaplain, who receives 10 annually for his spiritual attendance on one Protestant inmate Oh There had been five, but three have left, one died, and the remaining inmate might have been allowed to go to divine service outside the poor house. The house contains several hundred inmates, and it appears that the salary of the Catholic chsplain has net been increased in proportion to the discharge of his spiritual duties no, but some time since an attempt was made to curtail his salary from 75 to C0 a year. On the principles of fair play and economy I would suggest to some independent-minded guardian to take up the subject, and advocate the cause of the heavily taxed ratepayers to dispense withy1 the Protestant chaplain. superfluity of officer but above all idle officers should be dispensed with! It is an awful thing to see unfortunate ratepayers in many divisions in this union, ground to die dust they are.

The cause is fair and just, and I am confident that when brought before an enlightened bodf like our board, the matter will be arranged wita satisfaction. I am, sir, VERITAS. An English paper semi-jocoscly saps that roat beef, serenity of mind, a pretty wife, and cold water baths will make almost any man healthy, wealthy, and wise."

Tub Teeth. A new and very curious invention connected with dental surgery has been introduced by Mr. Howard, of 17, George-street, Hanover-square, London it is the production of an entirely new descri2-tion of artificial teeth, fixed by his new I'ateut system of sclf-adhcsion and capillary attraction, without springs, wires or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble natural teeth, as not to be distinguished from the originals by closest observer. They will never change color or decay, and will be found very sn-r er'or to any teeth ever before used.

This method docs not require the extractio'i of roots, or any painful operation whatever, and from the n.ttureof the materia's used, the most perfect fit is obtained, and they arc guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication. The invention is of importance to many persons, and those who are interested in it, should avail themselves of Mr. Howard'. kill as a dentist. ardour of the island, which thc genius of her child- tin.
