ANGLO-CELT OCTOBER 6, 1848 REJOICINGS AT BELTURBET On Monday evening the town of Belturbet was brilliantly and tastefully illuminated, as a mark of public respect for the enterprise of Messrs. Alexander Dickson and Co., and in consequence of their recommencing distillation after a cessation of six years. REMOVAL OF EDWARD MURPHY, ESQ., VICE-GUARDIAN--This gentleman has been transferred by the Commissioners from Granard union to the Castlerea union, for the benefit of which he is to discharge his official duties in future.

The men of Castlerea have good reason to congratualte themselves on the favour which hs been shown them by the appointment of Mr. MURPHY to manage the affairs of their union.
