THE DISTILLERY BILL
The Distillery Bill has passed the House of Commons, with some material
alterations, all of them, we are happy to say, favourable to the Irish
Agricultural Interest. The duty will be reduced to two shillings a gallon,
and a drawback of the full amount of the malt duty is to be allowed to such
distilleries as use malt alone. We need not say that the spirits which will
be made in Ireland next season will be the best spirits ever made in the
Kingdom, and that it will be as cheap as spirits ought to be. When we add,
that a law is very likely to pass next Session, allowing a free intercourse
of spirits between England and Ireland, we need not say that the Irish
farmer and landlord will receive not a boon, but an act of substantial
justice.

NOTICE
Take Notice that I, the Undersigned, have surrendered myself to the Governor
of the Co. Prison, Galway, for the alleged Murder of Michael DILEEN, on the
evening of the 24th December, 1822- of which all persons concerned are
hereby required to take notice.
Given under my hand this 15th day of July, 1823,
