account of the outrage on Mr. Crotty and incr
his servant, lately reported: When return- beca

and when within two miles of his own land
house, Mr. Crotty was fired at from a copse of ti
in an angle at the turn of the road. The lord
fearful occurrence took place at five oclock that
P. Y. Mr. Crotty scrambled off the car, to
and was brought by the country people to own
the house of a man named Gibbons, with- or f
in 150' yards of where the shot was fired. E
The people carried the boy to the house of Frh
Jack Joyee a friend of his, where he still ma:
lies. Mr. irotty was subsequently remov- ceet
ed home. Mr. Stritcb, R. M.: Mr. Fortes- trat
o,-C.J.; Mr. Graves, S.I.; Head-Consta- se
ble Nyland, and constabulary parties from anti
all the surrounding stations, were quickly Del
on the spot Day and night the men are Tyt
in search of the assassins. Neither Mr. We
Crotty nor Mitchell can identify the assas- wa
sins. Two out of seven-men arrested on cie
suspicion are detained. No probing of the he
wounds could be attempted up to last hbi
night. Both sufferers are very' weak. Cr
Each has lost an eye. Six pellets and hen- ing
vy shot entered the 'neck and side of the the
head of both. Very faint hopes are enter- of
taned of Mitchell surviving. Mr. Crotty, the
though in danger, may recover. Dr. thi
Walsh, of this town, and Dr. Johnson. of T
Wesport, are in constant attendance. We Ian
are unable to give more local detail, be- cesi
yond stating what is notoriously knowon,
that the relations between Mr. Crotty aond fec
the people since he became the purchaser of the
the Mountain, have been marked by inces- me
sant contests, quarrels, and litigation, ex- not
tending over a period of fifteen or sixteen sin
years. Such terrible deeds, notwithstand- ing
ing, are to be deplored by the friends of ln
the people. It is plain that the affair is ve
purely localised. TI

lowing certain deductions for dilapidation. Mat
The appeal was made against this award rece
as being insnffiBient, and resulted in an B
award of £162 for the tenant, with costs.

Every flan His own Process Server.-On Co0
Friday last the Rev. H. Crofton, a clergy
man of tie Disestablished Church, pro
ceeded, accompanied by theresident magis- T
trate and a posse of the constabulary, to wa
serve a notice to quit upon one of his ten- brc
ants, known by the sobriquet of" Captain" abh
Daffy, at a place called Clonabeigh, near bol
Tyrrel's Pass, in the notorious county ma
Westmeath. Either the Rev. gentleman
was unable to procure a person with suff- to
cdent courage to perform the function, or tio
he humanely resolved to dare the danger *N
himself. It is alleged that the Rev. Mr. Ea
Crofton was fired at last year when visit
ing his property; and it is also said that
the barbarous murder in December last, ..R
of a process server, named Waters, was
the result of his having served a notice on ti.
this same Duffy for the Rev. Mr. Crofton. wh
Truly 'tis a strange state of society when
landlords have to execute the legal pro,
cesses for themselves.
Irishmen wishing for the MIfoon.-The ef- I
fect of Lord Derby's speech, comparing a
f the desire of Irishmen for home govern. a,
ment to a desire for the moon, which can- f
not be gratified, has been what he least de- t
sired. He has destroyed any little hanker
ing after a change which some people here
might have felt. He has disclosed the clo
s ven foot in good time for theLiberal party. ad
There are people here, good friends of Eng- sir
f land too, who think local government S
s granted to Ireland would strengthen the x
f Empire instead of weakening it, and would
cement a union between theb countries
which is under any other state of things all
Smpossible. At all events, the subject is ;o
I one admitting of discussion, and Lord Der- ev
t by's off-hand manner of treating it will
y never be submitted to. Lord Derby's
speech is a strong argument for Repeal, o
and has convinced many an Irishman who w
I wavered on the question. a
Unwise Economy.-The officials of the
n Admiralty have just given great offence to
I a large section of the community here. A ti
Committee was formed in Dublin for the w
purpose of collecting seed to enable the e
1- farmers in that part of France devastated i
e by the war to avail themselves of the sea
rf son in time by getting the crops set. The
h Irish farmers contributed generously, but o
g the committee had not funds for the trans- p
a port of the seeds placed at their disposal, e
e and they applied to Government for a ves
i, sel. After a fortnight's delay they were in
s- formed that the Admiralty had no vessel
d available. This act is-looked on as mere -
ie official snobbery, and it is felt that an
so English Committee would have received a
- totally different reply. Thus, every day,
id English officials show theirutter incapacity
y. to conciliate Ireland, even in small matters.
g Prisons in the West.-Judge Keogh in his
address to the Galway Grand Jury read the
following passage from the Report of the
al Hon. Mr. Burke, the Inspector.General of c
d- Prisons: "At the time of my inspection
a the same boiler was used for cooking po
ml- tatoes and boiling the dirty clothes; there
n- was no school in the prison, and the only
5e, instruction received was that imparted by
of the-Nouns who visited the prisoners; the i
e male prisoners' clothing was in a state of
ud rags, and a tailor who was in jail, instead
of ot being put to mend the clothes, was em
ly, ployed in mat-making. The judge also
ok said he understood that the prisoners in
ill- Leitrim goal could open the locks of their
In- cells with their spoons. They cannot be
A very desperate criminals in that part of the
Id, country at all events.
Wt Worth Knowing. - Working of the NeK
' Compensation Law.-A man tired of life
vs may now make a tidy little provision for
his family by coming over here and getting
ay' a friend to shoot him in a suitable locality.
on An application was made to the county
Mayo Grand Jury, on behalf of the widow
mr of Humphrey David, for compensation for
Shis murder, st Foxford. Davis was shot,
sr as alleged, through the window of his bed
byMroom on the ath of January last. The
coroner's jury at the inquest returned a
verdict of "Death by the accidental dis
in charge of a gun in his own room." Mrs
at Davis claimed £1000 compensation, and
tish the Grand Jury granted £530.
Sympathy with the Pope.-During the
y past week the Ladies' Papal Address Com
Smittee have received highly gratifying let
Ong ters from correspondents through the coun
on, try, who have kindly undertaken to f.r
ward lists of sigeatures and subscriptions
off in the course ora few days. Several la
