(HC 3/2/1800) -The Alexandria transport, Lieutenant Elsmere, and the Columbine transport, Capt. Huddleston, on their passage from Emden to Dublin, which put into our Harbour, from whence they sailed last Saturday morning, in consequence of thick weather mistook Tarmore [?Tramore] Bay for the entrance of Waterford Harbour. The Columbine came to an anchor inside Brownstown-head, and when the tide offered, cut her cables, got over the bar most fortunately, and ran up Rhine-shark harbour, where she now lies safe. The Alexandria, missing stays, was obliged to anchor close in with the breakers, where she remained till Sunday, near high-water, when she also cut her cables, and ran well up on the beach of Tramore.

Should the weather continue favourable it is thought she will be got off. - These are the vessels which conveyed from New Geneva the UNITED IRISHMENfor the King of Prussia’s service.

(HC 21/4/1800) -CORK,MONDAY - APRIL 21 - ….. concern and regret to every honest and liberal mind to learn that a great number of the Actions, &c., tried this Assizes in the County, before the … General, have originated in the spirit of … as intolerance, and bigoted animosity; we ….. some consolation in being able to state, that the baleful influence of this malignant spirit, seems not to have extended itself beyond the narrow precincts of the little town of Clonakilty.And we trust the verdict obtained by Mr. White last Saturday, will have the happy effect of doing away every vestige of party and prejudice in that hitherto distracted and ill-fated town.

In the case we allude to, Mr. White, an honest and industrious Roman Catholic, Shop-keeper of Clonakilty, was Plaintiff, Mr. Philip Donovan, Deputy Recorder, and ___ Spiller, of the same place were Defendants. The case as stated by Mr. Keller for the Plaintiff, and supported by the clearest evidence, was in substance as follows:

On Saturday, the 28^th of last September, White gave his daughter in Marriage, to a Mr. T. Sullivan of this City; and as usual on such occasions, invited a few friends to dine and spend the following evening with him. The whole party, men and women, did not exceed eight or nine. - About 9 o clock on Sunday night, such of the party as were not to sleep at White’s retired. - Those who remained were peaceably at supper about 10 o clock, when Messrs. Phil. Donovan, and ___ Spiller with a guard, entered the House, and after some altercation, secured White, and a Mr. O Hea, carried them to the Guard-house, & committed them to the custody of the Military, where they were detained till one or two o clock next morning, when they were liberated through the humanity of Major Fellers, commanding officer of Clonakilty: but what would appear incredible, if not established by the uncontradicted testimony of three witnesses, is that after White and O Hea were committed to the Guard-house, Donovan returned to White’s house, sat down with the remaining part of the company and partook of the supper from which he had hurried away the honest provider. He entered into familiar chat with the Bride and Bridegroom, and told them that he would not have committed their Father, were it not for his threatening to write to Lord Boyle, and lay before him the whole transaction. He declared that he was placed in a most disagreeable situation, that he was between Hell and Heaven, (meaning as we believe, between Orangemen and Catholics,) and that he would not have come to the house that night, had he not been called upon by Spiller, who he said, was a dangerous man, and who would have put him down as a Croppy, if he refused. - ‘Policy, said Donovan, ‘obliges me to act the part I do; in heart and sentiment I am one of yourselves and I will convince the world one day that I am of the good old faith, for upon my oath I will die a staunch Roman Catholic.’

When the Witness mentioned this part of Donovan’s conversation, much mirth was excited in Court. After the examination of a few Witnesses on the part of the Defendants, the Solicitor General charged the jury in a manner that did equal honour to his head and heart. His voice was the voice of justice and humanity. The Jury, then which the County could not produce a more respectable, retired for a few minutes and brought in a verdict for the Plaintiff 200l damages, and six pence costs.

It is not for us to comment on this business. - We leave that to the Whipcord Editor who attempted to be so very witty on a similar business brought forward at a late Sessions. His reputation for Impartiality is so well established, we doubt not he will give us a Fair a Representation of this affair, as his worthy Friend Dr. Duigenan did of Ireland

(HC 5/5/1800) - THE PUBLIC - Are informed that a PETITION to our Most Gracious Sovereign, against the Measure of a LEGISLATIVE UNION, lies for Signatures at Mr. Haly's, Bookseller, Exchange. - N.B. As it is intended to transmit the Petition to London in the course of a few days, no time should be lost in signing.

(HC 9/6/1800) -[Editorial] - CORK - UNION - That a man has no power over his own life is a position so generally received that any argument to prove it would be unnecessary; that a man has no power over his own liberty, that he cannot surrender it to the will of another is a position equally true, which the great Mr. Locke has so happily illustrated; that the Parliament of Ireland are not competent to the surrender of its Constitution, will, I think, admit of as little doubt as either of the foregoing, for how can the people delegate that power to another which they are not themselves in possession of - by Union, a term very improper for a measure rather calculated to produce that suspicion and hatred which will ever subsist between the oppressor and the oppressed, than the free and generous communication of two powerful nations connected together by reciprocal interests and benefits; by this infamous measure which a wise man must despise from his knowledge of its being inadequate to its purpose, which a good man will abhor, knowing the connexion between national and private virtue, and that whatever militates against one must injure the other. By this measure you for ever surrender the power of legislating for yourselves; and to whom do you entrust it? - not to your countrymen, who from habits of intimacy and the connexion resulting from the relative situation of landlord and tenant might naturally have your interest at heart, but to strangers who have no sympathy, no feeling, or no interest in common with you; who from ignorance despise, and who from the character they have heard of your ferocity dread you; who think you little better than wild beasts, and whose Minister got up in his place to say that a Union would gradually introduce civilisation into your country, an idea better calculated for the meridian of Angola, or the savages in America, than for Irishmen; and yet to these men so blinded by interest and prejudice, with whom you have neither moral nor physical connexion, and who will seize every occasion of giving a decided preference to their own country. To these men you are going to resign the most valuable blessing human nature is heir to - for the hundred Members to be sent over from this country under the specious name of representing you, can have no influence in a Parliament where there will be a majority of six to one in favour of English interest……

by Edw. Hoare Reeves and John Nason, Esqrs., TIMOTHY HIGGINS, ANDREW NEILand JOHN SULLIVAN,charged with being concerned in the murder of David Haley

(HC 23/6/1800) - [Advertisement] –LODGE 347 -THE MEMBERS are requested to attend at Charles O Sullivan’s on the Flags, at 11 o Clock, on Tuesday, 4^th inst to celebrate the Festival of St. John the Baptist, and to do the Business of the Day. - Dinner on the Table at Five o Clock. - T.N., Secretary - June 23

(HC 23/6/1800) -CORK –This day two French sailors and an officer were escorted into town by a detachment of the Berwick Cavalry. They were taken at Clonakilty, and belonged to either a French frigate or privateer, after landing from a boat to procure fresh water.

(HC 3/7/1800)– CORK – THE FIRST OF JULY – At no period of these eventful times were our peaceable fellow-citizens forced to witness such scenes of riot and intemperance as disgraced this City on Tuesday last. It would seem as if the Demon of Discord had sent forth from the regions of Hell its infernal Imps to loose the ties of social order, and tear asunder the bonds of friendly intercourse. Nor in adverting to these painful circumstances can we console ourselves by charging them to the account of thoughtless insolence or transient frenzy. No; they carried with them evident marks of deliberate malice and premeditated outrage. They were not confined to any one part of the City; they spread terror and dismay through every street and avenue of it. We would be led to think that some Monsters, accustomed to blood had been conning the destruction of their fellow-creatures. Nor age, nor rank, nor condition could protect the unoffending and defenceless passenger from the inhumanity of these infuriate ruffians. If a silly servant maid, without thought or design, appeared in the streets with a green ribband round her cap, she instantly became the victim of the wanton cruelty of these all-conquering heroes called Orangemen; cap, hair, and ribband were torn from her unfortunate head, and if she fled for protection into a shop, the harmless proprietor came in for a share of their brutal barbarity. But thanks to Heaven the same love of peace and order which distinguished the great body of the people of Cork in the days of foreign invasion and internal rebellion governed them also on the present occasion; and its happy influence enabled them to bear with unequalled temper and patience, and triumph over such base and unprovoked hostility.

To the Officers and Privates of the Regulars, Fencibles, and Militia who were on duty that day sufficient praise cannot be given. Their conduct was that of Gentlemen and Soldiers. They exerted themselves in the most laudable manner, and their exertions were happily successful in checking the licentious spirit of merciless and sanguinary faction. Indeed no other conduct could be expected from any part of a Garrison commanded by a General whose prudence and moderation at all times will ever endear him to the truly loyal and peaceable inhabitants of this City.

(HC 10/7/1800) -CORK – Extract of a letter from Bandon -‘The Loyalty of this town never appeared more conspicuously than on the glorious 1^st of July. The windows decked out with green bows, variegated with flowers and Orange-lilies, were beautifully romantic, and appeared at a distance as so many hanging gardens - while the mind was awfully impressed at the sight of those royal culprits King James and Queen Mary, who were hanged, shot at, and consigned to the flames, as they ought to be. The spectators beheld, with pleasing astonishment, King William placed on the spire of one of the Churches, majestically moving in the air, riding over a Salmon, painted orange colour, with purple fins.

The Battle of the Books so humorously described by Swift, was nothing to the real battle that took place between the Caps. In the beginning, the country-women, who were accustomed to pluck the sheep, had by far the advantage, when a reinforcement coming down to the Orange girls, victory was soon decided in their favour, when caps, ribbons, and hair, were plentifully scattered about.

(HC 14/7/1800) -CORK – FIRST OF JULY, OLD STYLE –It was not without the most painful sensations we found ourselves called upon to express our abhorrence of the wanton and unprovoked excesses lately committed in this City, by a cruel and unfeeling Faction, whose conduct, sentiments, and dispolitious, would disgrace the annals of savage ferocity. Nor was our indignation lessened at finding every attempt made to renew atrocities at which humanity sickens. The OrangeWarhoop was founded, to muster once more the heroes of discord and ascendancy. We had therefore serious reason to apprehend on Saturday last, a Repition of the disgusting scenes of the First of July, New Style. But we are extremely happy in being able to state that nothing occurred on that Day, to disturb the Peace and quiet of the City. No party colours were worn, and if any meeting took place, it must have been in some obscure den, worthy of such uncivilised inmates.

It would encrease our satisfaction, could we attribute the tranquillity which prevailed on Saturday, to a returning sense of shame and remorse; for past delinquency; but alas! We know from sorrowful experience, that their savage hearts are unsusceptible of any one kind, or honourable impression; and therefore to the strong arm of martial power alone, are our peaceful fellow citizens indebted for their protection, from the insults and outrages of a Lawless Banditti.

DANIEL COUGHLAN, TIMOTHY COUGHLAN, DANIEL CURTIN, MICHAEL SULLIVAN, alias CAPAIN SLASHERfrom Castle Lyons charged with administering unlawful oaths.

(HC 17/7/1800) -CORK –We have deeply to lament the accumulation of new mischiefs from the institution of Orange Lodgesamongst the lower orders of the people in this County. That peace of which we proudly boasted, the modest, but enviable reward of tried loyalty, seems to be banished for a time from amongst us, and we are now in our turn cursed with that pestilence which having scourged one portion of this kingdom, seems like the enmity of Providence to visit the other with aggravated evils. Invasion we braved - rebellion we stood in array against. We have outlined both; but there is yet a conquest left for the triumph of Christian charity, which if it cannot be effected by the mild influence of precept, ought to be achieved by the strong and impartial arm of the law. On Saturday the 12^th Inst in the evening, a number of the labouring inhabitants of Ross Carbery,in this County, has assembled for the purpose of drawing home for a Mr. Dan Donovan, a large piece of timber for a mill-shaft. While they stood in the street a gang of men who called themselves ORANGE MEN,attacked them without any provocation whatever. Roused by so gross and offensive an aggression, these poor men resisted the attack, and their numbers prevailing over the weapons of their antagonists, the Orange Men abandoned the contest, and the matter was supposed to be altogether terminated. About midnight however, the town was entered by a Corps of OrangeYeomanry from a neighbouring town, who assisted by their brotherhood at Ross,broke into the houses of the Catholic inhabitants, many of whom they made prisoners, having dragged them from their beds, and a number of shots being fired into the houses, and several prisoners being cut and maimed after their apprehension, a scene of dismay of the most affecting kind took place. Several vouchers to sustain this statement, and solemnly given, have been laid before us. But we think it not our duty to enter into the particulars of a transaction which is about to be a subject of legal investigation. We should not have offended the Public eye with a narrative so unworthy and disgraceful to the Country; if it had not been promulgated with some party acrimony from another quarter, and while we condemn the party spleen which has given a false bias to the matter, we have for ourselves as lovers of the Public quiet, and maintainers of the law of the land, to deprecate that and every other circumstance, which in its effect or tendency has any evil operation on the repose of a harassed and disturbed country.

***(HC 21/7/1800) -CORK –To the Editor of the Hibernian Chronicle, - SIR, …I have therefore no hesitation in soliciting a corner in your loyal and independent Paper, for the insertion of the following QUERIES; plain and honest answers to which, from either friend or foe, may serve to throw new-light on the real state of Party-business in this distracted county, and will be attentively listened to by - Your inquisitive Friend, - PADDY CURIOUS, - Great-Britain-street, - July 17, 1800

(HC 4/8/1800) -CORK –We were somewhat alarmed on hearing that the Orange Mastiff began to snarl on Tuesday evening last, and threatened to become quite furious by Thursday night, but he has, it seems, been muzzled by his Keepers. This animal, at all times vicious, frequently betrays symptoms of real madness, and it is not a little singular that on these occasions, he always attempts to bite a Priest or a Papist. Not long since he attempted to bite a Mr. Dan Donovan, of the West, but we are happy to inform our readers that on Saturday he began to fawn on that gentleman, and there is every reason to hope that through the vigilance of the Kennel keepers he will soon become quite harmless.

Quere - Mr. Advertiser, what Dan Donovan was it that gave Three Guineas to drink to the men who drew the mill-shaft from Benduff to Ross?

(HC 25/8/1800) -CORK – Convictions in the City - THOMAS CROWLEY,for uttering seditious expressions, fined one mark.

(HC 5/1/1801) -Committed to the County Gaol - By Thomas Smith, Esq; DENIS M’CARTHY,charged with tendering unlawful oaths, and executing forged Decrees.

(HC 2/2/1801) - ROGER O CONNOR, ESQ.,who was brought up from Fort St. George to London by Mr. Basilico, was on Sunday last liberated on bail, himself in £5000, and G. Smith, Esq., and Hugh Beil, Esq., in £2000 each.

(HC 30/3/1801) - DAVID BREEN,one of the persons charged with the murder of the late much lamented Mr. Hutchinson, was on Friday brought in my a party of the Muskerry Cavalry. It seems he was apprehended at Carrick-on-Suir; and it is entirely owing to the unceasing vigilance of this ever active corps that this man has been no longer able to elude appearing before the justice of the law.

(HC 6/7/1801) - BANDON, July 14 -While on the 1^st of July (O.S.) there was a great fuss about the Orangebusiness in Clonakilty, where some paraded with Orangesashes, and walked round a tree, with loud huzzas, to the honour of Bandon, nothing similar was seen that day. In fact, people begin to be ashamed of such fooleries - while so many thousand Catholics in his Majesty’s land forces, have shewn their fidelity on the most trying occasions - while so many thousand Catholics in the navy fight with the most determined bravery, and prove their loyalty, not with a mummery of ribbons, but by generously shedding their blood in defence of their King and Country, how ridiculous must it not appear; and what a mockery of loyalty, to attach it to a scrap of ribbon, dangling from the chain of a watch, or to the wearing of an Orangelily. It is a happiness for the peace and tranquillity of the country, that those parades are merely local; they seem to be the last gasp of an expiring faction, who endeavour to play off the infamous game of setting folks by the ears, to prop their falling consequence.

(HC 24/9/1801) - JEREMIAH M’CARTHY,who was lately tried by a Court-Martial here, for having administered an unlawful oath to Mr. John Banfield, at Bandon, on the night of 18^th July last, was found guilty of the same by the Court, and sentenced to be transported for seven years. His Excellency the Lord Lieut., has from some favourable circumstances been pleased to pardon him, upon his giving satisfactory security for his future good behaviour and for his appearance when called for.

(HC 19/4/1802) -Last Wednesday in the County Court DAVID BREENwas found guilty of the murder of Mr. Hutchinson, of Codrum, and ordered for execution tomorrow. There were eight persons hanged before for this atrocious deed.

(CMC 5/1/1807) -We are glad to hear this County is tranquil, peaceable, and industrious - and our assertion is made from sources authentic and respectable. We have heard of no meeting alarming to our public peace. We trust to the known character of our County - which in the worst times of the country, has been a subject of panegyric, that similar acts of turbulence and outrage, to those which have disgraced other counties, will never bring upon it merited odium and degradation.

(SR 10/4/1817) - COUNTY ASSIZES – WEDNESDAY APRIL 9^TH – RICHARD POWER, DANIEL EGAN,and WILLIAM CONNELL,were indicted under the White BoyAct, for a Burglary in the House of Callaghan O Callaghan, on the 23^rd of October last, at Castle Wrixon, in this County; also for a felony in stealing from said House fire arms and other articles, and … misdemeanour and riot. It appeared from the evidence of O Callaghan that he was Steward to George Willis Crofts, Esq., and that on the night mentioned in the Indictment, a party of armed men came to his house, where a quantity of butter, several cows, & other cattle were deposited, which had been distrained for rent, from Power the Prisoner. The party fired several shots, tool away two Guns, the Butter, and 19 Cows. The Guns had been given to the witness by Mr. Crofts to defend the property.

The Witness was cross-examined by Mr. O Connell, and admitted that subsequent to the transaction on the night of the 23d October, Mr. Crofts and Poweragreed to leave the matter to arbitration, as there was a difference of opinion about the amount of rent that was due, and for this purpose Mr. Crofts, of Velvetstown, and Mr. Gregg were named to settle all matters between the parties. ‘Twas after this arrangement Mr. Crofts made the witness swear Informations against the Prisoners, and for this purpose desired him to go before Mr. Bruce, a Magistrate. Power wished to replevin the goods, but witness would not take order from him. Witness also admitted that his own party, consisting of 7 men, fired several shots, and that they had charged their Guns with Powder, Ball, Shot and Nails.

The Court here asked the Witness, if the articles taken away were those that had been distrained? - to which he answered in the affirmative; and also that the reason the opposite party took away the guns was to prevent him from making use of them. The learned Judge then intimated that this could not be considered a Burglary or Felony under the White Boy Act, whereupon an acquittal was directed, upon the counts of the Indictment. - They were then given in charge on the riot and misdemeanour, when Powerand Eganwere found Guilty, and Connell acquitted.

OWEN M'AULIFFEwas indicted for a riot and assault in the Month of June, 1816, at Ballinguile in this County. The circumstances attending this case have been frequently detailed in the Public Papers. On the day stated in the Indictment, Rich. J. Orpen, Esq., then Sub Sheriff of this County, proceeded to the Lands of Ballinguile,in order to execute a Writ against the property of the Prisoner, at the suit of Charles Bastable, Esq., to whom he was Tenant, and there seized cattle which he, the Sheriff, was driving towards Buttevant, attended by Mr. Bastable, an Officer and six Dragoons, when a party of over Fifty Persons attacked them and succeeded in rescuing the Cattle. The Prisoner upon that occasion was armed with a Blunderbuss, and was the principal ringleader. These facts being proved by the testimony of Mr. Orpen, Mr. Bastable, and Mr. Wrixon, who happened also to be on the spot, Counsel for the Prisoner sought to defend him on the ground that the Cattle seized in execution did not belong to the Defendant in the writ, the present Prisoner, but to his Sons, upon ……… the Distress was levied. This, of course, was ………the conduct of the Prisoner, and he was found Guilty.

(SR Apr. 1817) - CITY ASSIZES - DENIS and BARTHOLOMEW CANTILLON stood charged with having published certain threatening notices and posted them at Glanmire, near this City.

To support this indictment, John Buckly was sworn, and examined by Mr. Quin. He stated that he knew the Prisoners, whom he identified. One morning in the month of last November he rose very early, and saw several persons on the Lands of Racooney, on part of which he resides, among whom were the two Prisoners, assisting to post a Notice on the window of a House. They went away, and he being frightened returned home and went to bed; this was before day. When he got up, which might have been in about four hours after, he went to the place. And found all the neighbours reading the Paper. The Witness not being able to say this was the identical notice posted by the Prisoners, an acquittal was immediately directed by the Court.
