A gentleman had spoken to him of it, and on the evidence before him, the sentence of the court was two months' imprisonment, with hard labor. Michael Kearney, alluded to in foregoing, pleaded guilty to drunkenness, and was fined 5s. or seven days' imprisonment. Robert Foley, another of the lot, was also charged with drunkenness. The constable stated that after the other two had been brought in, Foley came to the barrack and in a bravado manner wanted to see his brother he was then taken in and kept there he was very quiet when in custody.

Mr. Wall, solicitor, for defendant, said the summons was for having an unmuzzled dog only, and the court could not try the other question, which should be an action for a malicious injury. Case dismissed, court having no jurisdiction. Gave Prosecutions.

There were two prosecutions against a young man, named Thomas Walsh, of Wil-kin's-street, in this citv first, for having, on Sundav.

Patrick Vealo, of Island Keane, appeared on summons for two unlicensed dogs one his own, and the other a puppy, the property of his landlord, Lord Doncraile. The case had been adjourned from last court day, in order to communicate with the noble owner, who, it appears, has all his dogs registered at Doneroile, county Cork, but Mr. Goold held, that as the dog had not been transferred, and is there only to be reared, the license cannot be transferred thoroibre thore must be a fine of 6d. and Is. 6d.

Mr. Power Oh, you arc a fashionable man Witness: I am; I know defendant was fined hero last year for the same, as appears from a report in tho newspapers. Defendant hero said the case was then dismissed. On reference to tho books of the court at that time, it appeared there was a cross case in last July, where tho plaintiff (Hearnc) was then fined 10s.

for an assault on defendant, and the defendant here (Power) was then fined Id. for trespass. Defendant: I was fined then a penny bocanse ho caught mo lying in tho grass now ho only found me on tho cliff.

The issue was, Mrs. Ryan took action into her own hands in the shape of a four-legged LINES. W-n th tree of life it budding lint, Ere jet it 1m res art fnm, Em jot, by shower and tunlieam norssd.

Those articles were stolen from Mrs. Corcoran in December by, it is supposed, a man named Warren, who very soon after was sentenced at Cashel Quarter Sessions to six months imprisonment for robbery, tbe articles in question being recovered by tbe constaou lary about the same time.

Mrs. Corcoran, from age and infirmity, was unable to travel to Clonmel, and in consequence, acting under the instructions of Mr. Goold, R.M-, he (Mr. Barry) made the present application. Granted.

TUESDAY. Before the Mayor. Drunk Edward Sullivan, Tramore, was charged with being drunk that morning in Colbeck-street, and found lying in a doorway by Constable Guilfoyle.

Larceny Eliza Reilly, charged with drunkenness in Michael-street the day before, and with stealing a small cloak from out of the house of Mrs. B. Harper, and pledging it, was sent to petty sessions.

The Constitution or Sanitart Committees. A letter was read from the commissioners, referring to the minutes of 23rd nit, containing a resolution proposing that the dispensary committees in tho union should form the sanitary committees in their respective districts and in reference thereto, the commis sioners desire to draw the guardians' attention to the terms of their circular letter of 30th March last, relat ing to the constitution of committees under the sani. tary Act, in which it stated that the dispensary com. mittee, not being composed exclusively of members of the board of guardians, the nuisance authority of the union cannot act as the committee of the nuisance authority.

SWORN INQCIRV. Pursuant to resolution of the previous day of meeting, Capt. Hamilton, P.L.I., held a sworn inquiry at the workhouse, into an alleged breach of duty by Mr. Talbot, R.O., arising out of the following facts, as stated in our last About three weeks ago Mr. Talbot admitted Barry's wife to the hospital, suffering from fever.

Barry was employed by a farmer named Dunne, and Mr. Talbot, it was alleged, went to Dunne, who has a wife and large family, and told him Barry's wifo was ill with fever, and Dunne, fearing the introduction of the disease amongst his own family, discharged Barry, who applied forand obtained provisional relief from the relieving officer, Talbot, who at next board of guardians brought the matter forward for tho sanction of the guardians. On that occasion Mr. Lalor, D.L., said that Barry was not disemployed, and that a man named Bnen, who was in his employment, was living in Barry's house. Mr.

Tabot said not but it afterwards appeared that he was there, although the relieving officer did not know it. It was alleged that Mr. Talbot then went to Dunne, and asked him not to keep Barry in his employment, as if he did so it would injure him; it was also alleged that on that Saturday Mr. Talbot left 4s, granted to Barry that week, at the house of a provision merchant and publican in Carrick, and that Barry was seen drunk that evening. The guardians held that he should not go there at all, as it was a public-bouse, and the inquiry was held to ascertain the truth of all these matters, as Mr.

Talbot's explanation, read last Saturday, was not deemed conclusive oy Mr. Lalor and other guardians. Mr. James Talbot, relieving officer, deposed that he gave 3s. to Barry oa the first occasion, and reported it to tne toara of the loth of May, when 4s.

were granted, which he gave to a house in Carrick for relief in kind Mr. Lalor stated that on the following Thursday, Barry was drunk; witness heard nothing of that until the next board day (the 23rd May) the man he gave the 4s. to, has a public-house, but it is distinct from the provision store went to Mr. James Dunne's the next day (the 24th), but did not then see him met his brother Richard, who lives with him, and asked him whether James Barry was employed again, and he said no; asked him would he be employed the following week, and he said he could not tell told him then that Barry had got provisional relief. Capt.

Hamilton The relief was given on May 16. Mr. Talbot I said to Dunne that perhaps it would be "well not to employ Barry for a few days longer, for I was after getting out-door relief for him, and therefore he would not want for three or four days told him to tell his brother not to employ him, as there was still danger, and that I had got the relief for that purpose, or something to that effect it appeared to me to be wrong that he should get employment when relief was got for the purpose of supporting him out of employment. Mr. Hamilton You put the cart before the horse.

You gave the relief, and then stopped the employment, instead of finding out whether he was disemployed, and then give relief. Talbot Mr. Dunne told me he would not employ him. Mr. Dunne I did.

Mr. Talbot I would not get the relief for him otherwise I did not know till the Saturday following that Brien was in the house with Barry that is, Saturday, the 16th. Mr. Hamilton It was on that day Mr. Lalor men-tioned it.

Colonel Stuart And Talbot denied it that day before the board. Mr. Hamilton That can hardly be the date, for one of Mr. Lalor' charges was that Barry got drunk on part of the 4s. given that day week it must be on the 23rd.

Witness It must bo the 23rd. Mr. Hamilton Yon have a very bad memory. You say Mr. Lalor knew it on the 16th I was under the impression that he could not but have heard of it after a few days, and could not blame me for going to him.

Mr. Hamilton But did you not deny knowing anything of Brien's being in the union when Mr. Lalor complained of it Nor did I for five days after I admitted Barry's wife. i Mr. Hamilton I don't think I can get on with you any farther, until I have Mr.

Lalor and Mr. Dunne here. The minute book was produced, by which it appeared it was on the 23rd Mr. Lalor made the complaint of the drunkenness, but on the 16th Mr. Talbot contradicted Mr.

Lalor about Brien. Mr. Talbot I made inquiries the evening of tbe 16th, and found out that Brien was in the house I wish to state that four cases of fever broke out in the same house since, and have been admitted to hospital and there are two more cases there to-day that will show how necessary it is to be cautions I was not aware of the Briens being there for five days after admitting tho woman Barry; the medical officer of the district cautioned me about giving notice in case of fever, to prevent infection. Mr. Patrick Dunne, Ballyhenebery, deposed that Talbot came to him in the evening of the 12th of May, and asked him did he know Barry's wife was sick, and had gone into hospital he said he did Talbot asked him would he employ Barry for the next week, as he thought it would be advisable not to do so, when there was such a large family at his (witness's) house Talbot said if Barry was disemployed, he should give him out-door relief; told Talbot he was paying Barry 4s.

9d. a week and diet, but that he would like Barry to stop away for nine or ten days, till the infection was less dangerous. Mr. Hamilton Did he tell you he had already given him relief? Witness I can't exactly say but I think he told me he had given him 3s. that week I did not see Talbot afterwards, but heard he came to the house on the 17th to know if I had Barry employed met Barry in the evening of 8unday, the 17th, and he asked me wonld he come to work next day, and I told hint to do so but when I got home my brother told me word had come from Talbot that money had been allowed to the man to keep him from the house for a few days longer, and I told my brother to follow Barry, and teU him not to come next day he came to work tbe Wednesday following.

John Brien stated he had lived in the same house with Barry for throe years, but be could not say whether Talbot knew he was living there or not. Mr. Lalor Did you not state to me that he knew you were living there, for that he had cautioned you a year ago about Dunne It was my wife be spoke to and not myself. To Mr. Talbot: I was never acquainted with you.

Mr. Lalor: Did he not tell your wife to clean out the house Mr, iIanrahan Talbot admits that, but says he mistook) the woman for a sister of Barry's. i Mr. Lalor said what he thought was wrong on Talbot part was, that after misleading him at the board of the 16th, by denying that Brien was in tho house, when he found it out that evening he did not go and ft md word to him (Mr. Lalor) about the matter although, lug gala waa loss than 200 yards from Brien's (CorrejjxmA-nf, Waterford Sens).

TUB TOWS TUB COM! NO ILECTtOXS CATHOLIC ASD otobb issrm-nous, Ac. Cablow, Fridat EvgNixn. This is a very clean lit tle town of over 8,000 inhabitants, and 234 Parliamentary electors. Under the new Reform Bill it may have 300. It is unlike most of our southern towns, very Tory in its inclinings.

Carlow has had many hard battles to fight in order to maintain the spirit of Liberalism over ascendancy yet it has done it, and done it bravely, even against heavy adds. Its present member is Mr. Thomas Osborne Stock, who is a staunch Liberal I have had the pleasure of Mr. Stock's acquaintance, and I am convinced that he is a thoroughly honest politician, national and Catholic to the backbone. I noted with pleasure that on every division on the great church question a question which, I believe, is the forerucner of Ireland's salvation Mr.

Stock was never absent from his duty. I am, therefore, not surprised to hear that the Tories may try to put him out at the general election. Had he behaved a traitor to Gladstone and to Ireland they would let him alone. However, I'm glad to find, on consulting the patriots of the town, that they will stand by him even firmer than they did before when he beat down the backer of Disraeli A Co. Of course the new Reform Bill won for us through the exertions of the Reformers will materially help Stock, as the new electors to be placed on the roll, will in the main be of the Libera), Catholic stomp.

Seeing what Carlow, under adverse circumstances, has dune seeing that it has kept aloft the flag of liberty it is astonishing how New Ross, which is far more Catholic, and ought to be more Liberal, has gone down below Zero in its representation. Mr. Stock was in Ciurlow recently, and i understand was well received by the people generally. The Catholio institutions of Carlow would reflect much credit even on a larger and more important town. It has a splendid cathedral, a noble monument to the memory of the great, sainted, and brilliant Dr.

Doyle, the illustrious J. K. who elicited the admiration of all tbe renowned men of his age, including O'Connoll, Peel, and the Duke of Wellington. Within this church repose the ashes of the -Bishop, who, I may observe, was a native of the adjoining county of Wexford. Here, too, ia his beautiful statue, in marble, by Hogan.

Those who have seen him say that it is life-like. To behold his thoughtful features and noble brow, on which is stamped genius of the highest order, would repay one to go a long distance. Carlow has also its grand old college, where studied numerous orators including Dr. Cahill scholars, and patriots. Here ia also a spacious convent, with its school for girls, as also the establishment of tho Christian Brothers, who are scattering far and wide over Ireland the seeds of knowledge amongst the rising generation, carlow is therefore well off in an educational point of view.

Amongst the admirably conducted institutions in Carlow is the District Lunatic Asylum, under the management of tho resident medical superintendent, M. P. Uowlett, M.D., formerly so well known (especially in New Ross) for his eloquence and patriotism. He is a near relative to the ever-to-be-remembered Dr. Doyle, to whom I have above referred.

The establishment is likewise very creditable to the other officers in charge, as also the governors, who seem to spare no reasonable expense in on lor to make the afflicted inmates comfortable and haifpy. The approach to the Carlow Asylum is like a gentleman's demesne, so tastefully and artistically are the walks laid out and the lawn planted. The institution has the advantage of a considerable qnant ity of land connected with it, namely, 25 acres in all, including that under buildings, walls, Ac. This land affords congenial and curative employment to the male patients, most of whom are from agricultural districts. Tho farm prodnocs potatoes and all kinds of cereal crops, and the garden vegetables and fruit abundance, and in great variety.

With these the establishment is supplied throughout tho year. It is marvellous how constant and carefully the poor in. mates perform the different out-door works allotted to them. Some are employed in weeding, somo clipping hedges another guiding a plough, and stirring on his horses as cheerfully as though he were aa wise as Solomon. This seems natural employment, and therefore it is that we always regret to see a limited area of land in connection with such institutions.

As a curative establishment the Carlow house has been very successful, for during four months last winter there was not a single death in the house, which is remarkably clean and well ventilated. The ordnance traps over sewers, recently introduced by Dr. Howlett, in place of the ordinary open gratings, have added very materially to the health as well as cleanli ness of the entire concern. Although a Tew patients have been sent from this establishment to the new asylum in Ennisoorthy, yet more room at tho male side more sleeping accommodation, as also baths, and water-closets, are essential in the Carlow house, the kitchen and laundry are far behind the times, and not at all, I regret to say, in keeping with the requirements of an institution otherwise so commendable. In passing through the establishment with Dr.

How lett, I observed with pleasure that all the inmates had their freedom, and tbat no straps, strait-waistcoats, or other stringent measures had to be used and that each inmate seemed to look upon tho respected super intendent (Dr. as a friend and protector. TO THE EDITOR OF TnE WATERFORD NEWS. Waterford, May 30th, ltsfiH. Si Would you permit me, on behalf of many others, to ask respectfully for either oi the military bands to give the grand musical treat that was afforded to the commercial classes of Waterford on last summer, by performing in the evenings say on Monday, or any other evening that would answer them for a couple of hours during the summer months, at the Adelphi I am certain it has only to be brought under the notice of the obliging Captain Glnbb, Waterford Artillery, to have it resumed.

Yours respectfully, Aotatic. TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS. Dvai Sis Where employment is better in Water ford than it is in most other places, I am surprised to find the poorhouse largely increasing in numbers, and the poor rates also on the increase. Therefore the ratepayers whose premises are highly taxed should see that no houses or premises should escape their proper qnota of taxation, and that no property, largo or small, should get out of paying its just and legal proportion. It appears to mo pretty clear, therefore, that the city guardians especially should now more than ever watch with a caretnl eye everything connected with the levying and administration of the poor rates in this locality.

FolUL Value of Property ix New York. The marvellous rise in real property in the metropolis of America Is shown by the following from An rorai Times The south corner of Broadway and Bond Street have been valued within a lifetime at 10 dollars it was sold once for 2-50 dollars, then offered for 500 dollars, and then for 2,800 dollars, and in 1839 was again sold for 18,000 dollars. Recently the Wilcox and Gibbs Sewing Machine Company offered 200,000 dollars for it, which being declined, they have leased the premises for a long term, and are about to open the most magnificent sewing machine estaliahment in the world.

During the past forty years the property has doubled in value every seven years. The whole of New York was once sold for 10 dollars. Energy. It is a common error to mistake) mere effort for energy. Where there is real power adequate to the performance of the task in hand, there will be no effort.

The strong man will ha a weight easily and even gracefully, while the weak man, who rushes forward and puts forth all his strength, may pant and tug at tho burden, but either fails to accomplish the task or does it only in a strained or awkward manner, showing plainly his want of the requisite power. There is in connection with every form of bravery a true energy and its counterfeit. Bluster is not courage, rashness is not readiness, doe-gedness is not fortitude, stupidity is not patience, fool-hardiness is not valor, recklessness is not magnanimity, and desperation is not self-devotion. Now that the election of President is at hand, the Irish vote is in great demand in America.

The accused pleaded guilty, and said he did not think it was any harm he never went before, and never would again.

Mr. Wall said he was informed the dogs belonged to Mr. Penrose, of Waterford. Whether with or without his sanction he could not say, but he was informed these dogs were out every Sunday coursing while the gamekeepers are at prayers. The four dogs were out on this morning, and one or two terriers.

If me euurb uiu 110L assist we society punisning loose partios, they could not stop this poaching, or preserve tho game. Chairman: Do you press for damages? Mr. wall 1 will leave it in your hands, in the case for coursing on a Sunday, I would prefer a penalty, for I wish to have it known amongst those parties that coursing on a bunday is illegal, and punishable by law. David Lyons was about proving this case, when Walsh said he was guilty, and that Mr. Penrose gave him the dogs.

Mr. Wall Did he make vou a present of them Walsh No, but he lent them to me to go out to course rabbits. Mr. Wall He is liable to 10 Irish for the trespass 5 in the other case. Chairman: Yon have pleaded guilty, and we must inflict a heavy penalty, to show you and the persons who employed you that you cannot break the law with impunity.

plaint of Constable O'Grady, fined 5s. or 48 hours. Pat didn't show. Drunk Edward Ryan was found drunk in Sargent's Lane, at one o'clock that morning, but discharged, as ho was a perfect stranger to the jioliee. Fiyhtiny Bobby Burns was charged with lighting in lligh-strect on bunday night, but, it ap pcaring that Bob's ire was excited by the fact of his brother having been beaten by a man named Rcilly, and knocked by a blow of a hammer by Mrs.

Reilly, and that his langnagn consisted solely in saying, If 1 was there, my brother wouldn have been titt as he was," ho was let off on paying a shilling. Bob is an ancient acqnaintance of the police, and ran a close shave upon this occasion. Stealing James Callaghan, a youth of twelve, was ordered to bo summoned for breaking open a box on the quay, the property of the Waterford Steam Ship Company abstracting therefrom 211)3 of raisins.

Before the Mayor. Fair Subjects The aggregate meeting on the Hill on Monday, commonly known as the monthly fair, sent many a guest to Peter-street tho previous night, and they now came up to see what hand justice would make of them this morning.

Mnurice paid 3s. and retired, passing a warm vote of thanks to the O'Grady for his very efficient conduct upon tho momentous occasion.

Michael Russell, a celebrated member of a distinguished family occupying a high position in this city, living, as they do, in Gow's-lano, was very clearly proved to have collared a respectable countryman named Power at the fair, demanding, at the same time, tho price of a gallon of beer, and with nearly knocking out the eye of another decent man, named Murphy, for interfering to save Power. Mr. Walshe read a long catalogue of deeds performed by bruiser Russell, such as threshing his papa, for which he got three months assaulting a sub-constable, one month, and various other assaults upon tho police, and upon the present occasion Russell (Gow) was sent to three months' drill in sight of his paternal homo. Mag Callender was convicted again of indulgence in her favorite propensity, drink, which conviction she took as a matter of course. His worship observed to the ancient Bacchante that she would require a magistrate for herself, to which she replied, snro I have your worship," an observation evoking, of course, the laughter of the outer bar, assembled in force tin- morning.

His worship ordered Mag to jail for a and sho returned her acknowledgments by obsorving, 1 may care," amidst more risibility from her admirers.

Before the Mayor, Mr. Wyse, D.L, and Dr.

J. Mackesy. Brutal Conduct Thomas Hogan, an able-looking youth, was charged by Sub-constable Tobin, with knocking down an unfortunate named Quiu, on Sunday night, and kicking her whilst down. It appeared both from the evidence of Tobin and the girl herself, that were it not for his (Tobin's) exertions, the wretched girl wonld have been severely injured. This unmanly character was sent to jail for a week.

Rather Foolish A respectable-looking man named Fleming, from tho county Kilkenny, was brought up charged with, and clearly proved as well, with being drunk at the Bridge on Saturday night, using abusive language, and with assaulting Sub-constable Addis. It appeared that Fleming was shouting when he came on the bridge, conduct which drew a remonstrance from Addis, who was, thereupon, informed by Mr. Fleming that ho would kick all tbe peelers in town, and that he would particularly send him (Mr. toh Addis caught him and informed bim he would, if he did not mend his manners, make him a prisoner, and then Mr. Fleming said he would go borne quietly, but he no sooner got free, on making his promise, than he recommenced bellowing loud as he could; he waa caught again, but this time, however, he put his hand close to tho official thorax inside the official stock, and rather contracted the aspirations of Mr.

Addis the officer allowed Fleming free once more, but followed him over tho bridge, and thore got one of the New-rath pol icemen to help him in taking Mr, Fleming to tho lock-up. The defendant having now come to his butter senses, expressed his sorrow for what had occurred, and tho constable very considerately said he diil not desire to press the charge of assault. Fleming, receiving an excellent character, waa let off on paying 5s. and costs. Retractation.

Patrick Hevey, Constable at Dunmore, against John Kearney.

The constablo deposed that on the evening of 6th of May hut he was on duty at Dunmore, and he saw four persons quarrelling near Maurice Walsh's public house, two of whom were Kearneys, brothers; the constable told witness to go home, and he left the entrance apparently with that intention, walking some distance, but he suddenly turned back, when the constable told him he would get into trouble and advised him not Kearney did not mind, and as he was under the influence of drink, he arrested him, when tho accused collared him and kickod him the brother camo to the attack, and when assistance arrived, they had to bo thrown down and handcuffed before they could be taken away as prisoners. On cross-examination by Mr. Strange, the constablo said ho did not arrest them at first when he saw them with implements in their hands Kearney, the accused, was drunk had gone about 20 perches before he pave him the kick never caught him by the collar and gave him a chnck certainly ho drew his sword, and put it to his shoulder, but did not use it did not tell Michael Kearney he would put the sword through him there was one sub-constable with him at first, but three came after to his help might have said he would use his sword if resistence were offered. William Qnin, called by Mr. Strange as a witness, was stated by tho police to be then in enstody for attempting to rescue a prisoner from them last niht.

Tho constable produced no other witness, and Capt. Coghlan said he would wish to have further evidence, independent of the polico, brought forward, as there is evidently considerable testimony to be given on tho othor side. Mr. Goold concurred in this opinion, as there is plainly a show of resistance being offered to the polico in Dunmore. Case adjourned for further evidenco until next sessions.

the excise prosecutions. Domel Best v. Catherine Lore. In this case, which was an excise prosecution for selling beer and spirits, as alleged, in an unlicensed house at Passage East, heard at last session, and standing over from that day for judgment, Capt. Coghlan said he wished to inform tho gentlemen present interested in the matter that no decision would be pronounced to-day, in consequence of tho absence of tho magistrates who were present at the hearing.

In tho case where a plea of guilty had been taken, and tho mitigated penalty of 12 10s. had been imposed, for selling wine in the house licensed for beer and spirits only, Mr. Coogan, supervisor, who appeared for tho excise, presented tho warrant for tho signature of tho magistrates. Mr. Goold said that as this case is still in the hands of the Government, he must decline to sign the warrant until the decision is known.

A memorial, praying for tho further mitigation or total aliandonment of the penalty, had been forwarded to the Lord Lieutenant, thence transmitted to tho magistrates for their opinion, and until tho final decision comes ho would decline to sign the warrant. Mr. Coogan Mr. Beat, who is now left town, should have had the warrant signed on tho con viction being obtained. Mr.

Goold I cannot rectify tho errors of Mr. Best. The case therefore Btands until next sessions, three weeks hence. Road Obstructions. Constable Daniel Hevey pro secuted a very poor man, named John Corcoran, for allowing his ass to wander on the road at Ballymacaw.
