      Ireland. Sarr.Vtiye Of Malcolm Mjgregor....

      _IRELAND . SARR . _VTIYE OF MALCOLM _MjGREGOR . SO . VUI . 1 I had spent many happv and highly instructive eve evenings in the society of my venerable host , Mrs . Mi Mahoney contributing her fair share of hospitality an and attention during his absence ; _aud _. truth to say , th the hospitable Pastor could not have been better rt represented than in tbe person of his housekeeper . 1 devoted the greatest portion of each day to

      • _v _- _ghing the peasantry at work , or their -wretched _i families in their wretched hovels , and had purposed I devoting my present paper to a faithful narrative of i what I saw , the existence of which would be ! doubted bv all who cannot draw largely upon their imagination ; my narrative , however , must be directed to another , and a more mournful subject , one which wrung ray heart with deep sorrow and ancuish , and stamped a scene of misery upon ray tnen-orv which uo time can efface , or circumstance

      obliterate . One evening , after a long walk through _theraountun ' s rugged aud intricate windings , with which I bad now become familiar , and after the return of n vkind host from a day of more than ordinary fciizoe , consequent upon the increasing cold and destitution of his flock , we had just sat down to dinner , when we were roused by a tramping of feet , followed by a loud yell and a knocking at the door ; •* Good God , " said the anxious Pastor , *• what can this mean ?'' when Mrs . Mahoney , with the colour of death in her cheek and the wildness of sudden fear in her eye , rushed , or rather stagger ed , into the parlour , unable to speak .

      .. _r . « - ,. tt I . I . _I , v _a " -: _ t . i-j " Speak , speak , woman , " ejaculated the affrighted Priest . "I can t , I can't , "—she rejoined , " 0 my God , my God , there ' s a ruction at Crief , sure the troopers and the Captain has been there , and but Jim and Xeddeen is outside , and says how they thinks Phelimeen is shot or murdered , or hurt among them . " * " Phelimeen murdered ! " exclaimed the Pastor .

      44 What , " said I , " my guide , my companion , the young and hearty peasant-youth who accompanied _HiC here but the other day ; tbe prop of his aged father and mother , and Kathleen ' s only brother ?" ¦ Whil e we were in a state , not of suspense , but of paralysis , two youths rushed into the room almost frantic with fear , horror , and sarprize , aad _ejaculated together" Come , come , your reverence , come , or blessed _h _^ God , you won't find poor Phelimeen alive—my God ! my God ! the troopers shot him . " The Rev . Mr . O'Farrell looked as I never saw

      nsortal look before ; he was calm , but his countenance presented a mixture of sorrow , anxiety , and wounded pride . Mrs . Mahony , who had recovered from the first shock , asked if she should order the boy to get the mare"No , " replied the priest , " I'll walk , the way i shorter ; put some wine in a small bottle . " And which being done , he was rushing out of the door , when I asked permission to accompany him . " As you please , " he replied , " if you have a stomach for misery . "

      The consent , though repulsive , was sufficient , and I followed ; Mrs . Mahony having put the priest's cloak on my arm , asking me to give it to one of th ** gossoons to carry , as his reverence would miss it coming home . During the whole of our race , for such it really was , to the O'Donnell ' s house , the Priest never once opened his lips , and , strange to say as he subsequently informed me , for the first time in his life he omitted paying homage to the blessed cave , bv which we passed .

      We were met at the little gate leading from the road , by the uncle of Phelim , who implored us to make as Utile noise as possible for fear of alarming he poor ould woman , who did ' nt hear it yet , as it would be sure to break her heart . We had now entered the cottage , where , but a few nights since , I , a stranger , had been received as a guest , and treated with generous , genuine hospitality , and when all about me was animation , hilarity , contentment , and joy , but alas ! how changed the scene . As we entered , and just in front of the door lay the father ' s

      hope , the mother ' s joy , and the sister s protector , a « _-ld , lifeless , hleeding corpse , stretched upon a bench , with a pillow under his head , covered with a white sleet , and bis death bed hung round with linen . The effect ofa gun shet wound upon the countenance is horrifying in the extreme , and cannot be conceived by those who have never witnessed it ; it is of such a nature , that no living man eould identify the sufferer by his countenance , and such was the appearance in death of him whose manly beauty was the parish pride , and his parent ' s boast . As I approached tbe corpse , my heart sunk within me , while the house of death presented , for Ireland , an unusual

      stillness , nothing audible but a deep suppressed tone , all being cautioned to spare the poor mother ' s feelings . The priest kissed the cold lips ol his kinsman , and as he rose I observed the large teats following each other in quick succession down his ptllid cheek , He did ' _r-t , he could ' nt , breathe a syllable . In the chimney corner sat the O'Donnell , in a state of subdued frenzy ; while Kathleen knelt at his side with her head buried ia his lap and _motionless , and tie relations and friends of the family hung over tie corpse in brooding vengeance and sullen silence , sow and then exchanging looks and suppressed Batterings , significant of injury and revenge .

      When the reverend pastor had recovered his nerve , he requested the uncle of Phclim , who met us at the gate , to communicate the whole transaction to him , but in such a tone as would not teach the _si : k mother ' s ear . He took the priest into an ad - joining room , and I followed , when the uncle narrated the whole transaction , as follows ;—" Shortly before dusk I was standing at my own door , when I see the troopers pass , and the Captain riding with them . Well , I thought I'de follow them a bit , and seeing them turn down the lane to tbe

      O'Donnfll ' _s bouse , I mended my gait , and came across the short cut to the corner of the house just as tbey entered , and sure Phelimeen was driving the cow home to lie milked , when the Captain says to Catchpole and two more that was with him , ' Seize that cow and drive her on the road , while / go down atid distrain the corn . ' Well , my jewel , sure the three runs at Phileraeen and begins driving the cow , and , he says , standing before them , ' Where are ye ' s going with that cow . ' ' I distrain her in the name ofthe Queen and the law , ' said the Captain , and by

      virtue of a decree . ' There ' s enough to satisfy you _T- ithout taking the drop nf milk from my sick _Mother that can't take anything else , ' says Phelim , ' tike the mare and the corn , but you shan't take the -w , you shall have my life first . ' 'Do you resist _ti-eu , * says the Captain . « I do , ' says phelim . 'Sew , Mr . Spilsby , ' says he , turning to a young _hooper that was with him , ' I order you to fire . And , my dear sowl , sure no sooner said than done , t ( ie word was ' nt out of his mouth , when the other **?* _-. 'Men , fire . ' And sure , blessed be God , mv

      l- _* _*> r Phelimeen fell just forenatnst his own door , ij but , indeed , I thought my heart was in my - ¦ oa th when I see him fall , for sure , I thought , _^ _er would ' nt fire so ready , but the Lord helps us , * !' often we said that he'de sarve Phelim out this * _*? or that way , and , said the uncle with a sigh , S h a , 1 ' - * _* - _' , ast Ion 8 er thsm Vm _^ _"g it , and sure when they had their will of ( f ? thur , they went off and left the cow behind _yu , and , upon my conscience , if they had only ¦ til one ten minutes longer , but not a man of _"** " * _Wtm _* d go home to tell the _storv , as the

      O'Donnells and the Crief boys were mustering in all directions over the hills when they see the troopers , and sure they weren t hardly gone when the lane was full , and , indeed , only for Tim Mahoiiy there would be bad work , and sure , I suppose , we did ' nt hear the end of it yet . _Ha-ing heard this frightful narrative , we returned once more to the room of death , where Mr . O'Farrell , approaching the bewildered father , in whose lap Kathleen ' s face was still buried , and putting his arms around the aged man s neck , and kissing him , he said , while the tears rolled quickly down his

      cheek" O'Donnell . yours is a sore trial ; but you roust bear the will of God with forbearance and resignation . " " Oh , God is good , " responded the old man , adding , " and God ' s will be done ; hut holy and blessed Redeemer ! isn ' t it a sore case to see my fine boy that was well and hearty at nightfall a cowld corpse stretched on the door , for trying to keep the dhrop of milk with his poor sick mother . "

      Dunn ; these ejaculations , the sighs of poor Kathleen were 'frequent and heart-breaking , and , no longer able to _reslrai-g her grief , or conceal her feelings , she rose , and looking towards her brother ' s corpse , she gave a death-like shriek , and fell back motionless upon her father ' s neck . " What—what ' s that ? " said a faint voice from the inner room . " What ' s that—and where ' g Phelimeen from me all this time ? He never was so long without bringing a drink after milking before . Where is he ?—Where is he . *•' - * An appalling silence was the only response to this appeal ; when the sick voice again asked , —

      " What , are ye s all dead , that no one will come near me ? Where ' s Phelim , I say ?" Still no answer ; when , to my horror , the door of the sick room slowly opened , a spectre , supported by the jamb , looked wildly round , and , with a sudden and elastic bound ( though she hadn ' t walked for several weeks ) , she sprang to the side of the corpse—she raised the cold hand , which by a broken

      nail she recognised as her ion s— she threw herself upon the body—tore every vestige of covering _froaj the cold corpse , flew to the fresh wounds , from which the young hot blood still gushed ; she sucked , disgorged , and sucked again ; until , at' length , exhausted and overcome , she stood up , looked frantic at all round , gave a hideous dt f i _ ve . il . and fell back lifeless in the arms of the _RevJfciO ' Farrell !

      The barrier to loud gri _^^ Bg removed , the house resounded with the _^_ _^ _f dea th , a dismal howl which still rings in < _flfefc It is a thrilling sing song yell , a constant r _^ _HKu of Hullagone ! Hnllagone 1 ! Hullagone !! 1 Here , then , is a subject for the painter or the poet . My pen can but feebly sketch the outlines . O'Donnell ; like a petrifaction , sat chained to the chimney corner , Kathleen swooning on his neck ; the mother , but a moment before electrified by nervous apprehension , _tntr _^ Mmed _, as if by magic , from a rheumatic cripple- _tojflrounding fairy , and as suddenly spell-bound and _jHm cold clay corpse

      to the ground , still _disgorginCHKead son ' s blond and that son the darling of _heT * leart , the prop of her house , and the hope of her old age . Poor Kathleen was but restored to consciousness to lose her reason , she flung herself from her aged father ' s neck , and , in the attempt to embrace her brother's corpse , she fell over her dead mother , rose and laughed and sung _. and , with her long flowing auburn locks streaming on her shoulders , she waved one hand to the mourners , and , placing her finger on her lips , with a wild and frantic look she muttered , " Hush , or the Captain and troopers will come and take my mother and brother from Kathleen . "

      She threw herself wildly upon her brothers corpse , and smiling upon all around exposed the fresh wounds , telling tbem to look how many mouths her Phelim had , and how rosy and warm the lips were that the Captain aud the troopers made for him , and then she ' de slap his face , and laugh and exclaim , " You ' re not my Phelim , you ' re an ugly fellow , my Phelimeen was the pride of the parish , and would smile on bis Kathleen , but you look sulky , " then turning round to her mother , she said , " Get up mother and take a drink of the milk that Phelim

      brought you . Heigho , sure Phehro is married and I must dance at his wedding , " and she sung some sweet wild air and danced around the corpse till flesh and blood could no longer bear the sight , and , with the assistance of the female mourners , the broken-hearted priest prevailed upon ber to go to bed , and it was daylight before we left the house of mourning . On our arrival home , the worthy pastor , who had not tasted a morsel during the previous day , took a cold bath , as was his custom , and iu less than an hour he was on his holy mission . I gave

      vent to ray sorrow in a flood of tears , after which I lessened my own load of grief by imposing a portion of it on poor Mrs . Mahony , who assured me the job wouldn ' t end there , for , as sure as life , there would be a black list jury , and but the O'Donnells would have Wood for blood if it was in twenty years , and but the Captain might as well fly the country . The old man is delirious , and Kathleen frantic said I , " Wisha , the craythers , God help them , sure no wonder for them" says ehe , giving vent to her feelings in a flood of tears .

      Those Who May Be Disposed To View The Pr...

      Those who may be disposed to view the present number of oar tourist ' s narrative as a picture of ro . mance , will please to read the _following account of the Rathcormac massacre , extracted from a Cork paper : — " While the weeping widow ' s son lay a bleeding corpse at her door , the pious archdeacon took a prayer-book from his pocket , and asked tbe widow to swear upon it . that she would no longer resist the payment of HIS tithes , and pointing to her _bleeding child , added , * ' Now , will you fay your tithes 1 " Two fine young men , one twenty and the other twenty-one years of age , sons to a poor widow named Collins , ran across the field when they heard the firing in the direetion of tbe widow Ryan ' s house , I

      and in less than ten minutes were stretched lifeless upon the green sward , many bullets having per forated the bodies . The mother went in search of her children when the firing was over , and , to her hoiTor , met their dead bodies coming towards ber home in a cart , she sprung upon them , threw hersell between them , and first sucked the blood from the wounds of one , then disgorged and sucked the other ' s wounds , until surfeited she lay fainting upon her dead children . Two poor wretches were dragged out of a pig-sty , whither they flew for shelter , and by order of an officer were butchered in cold-blood , most of those shot and dead were hit in the back while leaving the scene of action , and many fell at a

      distance of a hundred yards from the position occupied by the military . Our undaunted member , Mr . O'Connor , preached a funeral oration over the slain , from the steps of the barracks occupied by the staff of tbe Cork militia , surrounded by two regiments of'dragoons , the dead bodies in coffins supported by the friends of deceased aud surrounded by an immense mass of country people , excited to an extreme pitch . In the course of his funeral sermon , Mr . O'Connor , turning indignantly to those officers whose breasts were decoratedjwitb Waterloo medals , tofd thera to tear their faded honours from their valiant breats , and replace them with a bleedin « widow's heart , emblematic of their greater victory . { Continued to the Sixth Column . )

O'Connor concluded a heart-rending oration in the following words : — You are heroes now , but the day will arrive when the murderer shall stand in the awful _presence of that great God , into whose councils neither tho dictum ofthe Cabinet , the quibble of the Jud » e ,. or the prejudice ofthe Jury , shall dare to enter , where murder will be _sueti , but not by construction of human law or political ingenuity . After the oration , the vast assemblage departed in sullen silence to deposit tlieir slaughtered friends in the cold grave . Wo understand that Mr . _O'Jponnor lias had a very angry contest with Mr . Coroner Foote , who threatened to commit him , upon which ( Continuedfrom the Second Column . ) Mr . O'Connor concluded a heart-rending oration in the following words : — You are heroes now , but the day will arrive when

      he drew back Irom the table , and with a terrific kick up-jet all , sending the hatful of packed orangemen selected as jurors to the ceiling , and before the fracas terminated Messrs . Jones and O'Brien , coroners , arrived , Mr . O'Connor having dispatched ft chaise and four for each , when be discovered the partial manner in which the proceedings were likely to be conducted . " Let the reader also bear the following facts in mind . After an inquest , which lasted 13 days , Mr . O'Connor _succi'cdcd in obtaining a verdict of _"" iYillul Murder" against Archdeacon Rider , Major Collis _. and Upt . Bagly . l . oru Beerhaven was High Sheriff , and actually invited tho said Maior Collis to serve upou tne

      - urand Jury , before whom bills were to he preferred a » ainst him tor Wilful Murder . James Smith Barry , a noted orangeman , was foreman of the Grand Jury ; liaron Jj osier , afoul , who never held a dozen briefs , elevated to the Bench for his high church and Tory principles , was jud Ke According to his _direction the foreman of the Grand Jury , " not to inconvenience the gentlemen , " immediately appeared in tho Grand Jury gallery , and smiling triumphantly at us who _attei-ord to prosecute the murderers an * nounccd with fiendish exultation , that they had ignored the bill , and were complimented by thc _orango judge . The writer saw thc widow Rjan upon tho same day , when she told him that the Grand Jury ¦¦ nly made game ol Iwr , and asked her if Mr . O'Connell and the priest would support her . The writer further moved three resolutions in the Ilouse of Commons upon the subject , early iu the next _scssit-n , when the Whigs were restored to office . Mr . Daniel

      O'Connell and Mr . Joseph Hume requested him not to hamper the Whig government with the subject , and neither would second his resolutions , and thus has the _Rathc-irmac massacre , like all other Irish grievances , been BLOWN TO THE FOUR WINDS OF HEAVEN . Ed . N . S .

      THE NATIONAL LANDJND LABOUR BANK . Recklessness , want of economy , indifference of tne doubtful future during the prosperous present , have ever been the most unanswerable charges brought by the wealthy , the wily , and the fortunate against the labouring classes . We are not prepared to defend this wholesale charge in the abstract , while we contend tbat tbe want of tbriftiness evinced by the many is a consequence of our institutions , both commercial and political , being framed and altered from time to time for the convenience , security , and protection of the hasty made capital of the wealthy , rather than for the accumulated savings of the daily labourer or slowly thriving shopkeeper . For instance , our giant trade and commerce preclude the possibility ofthe poor man becoming a competitor with the rich speculator , while our monetary system rejects him as au ally from the impossibility of qualifying himself as a partner or participator from his daily or

He toW mr * he had come over three hundred miles to inspect the estate , and if I had any thing to conceal , which 1 had not , 1 would not have been

      very communicative to bun , as I formed thc opinion in my own mind from his curiosity , that he was a spy or some such thing . I never said one word to him about windows , or the timber they were made of , nor did we try to shut any of them , nor did I make a single complaint of the drunken plasterers , or of there being hut little water in the well . 1 told him it was over one hundred and sixty feet deep , and he did not see a single apprentice , nor has one

      worked on thc estate . He said he was very well acquainted with you . He put every thing he heard in the public-house down in a book , and 1 mentioned to others that I thought him a spy ; lie said he would return ott the following Thursday for more information , hut he appears to have made what he could not get here . He said the place was most beautiful . The apprentices he saw in the schoolhouse were grubbers , waiting for the snow to give over to go to work . 1 am , Sir , your obedient servant , Jamks Taylo « , Painter .
