Clonmell, Sept. 23.  On Monday last was acted here the
Recruiting Officer with the Devil in the Wine Cellar.  As
the actors began to play the devil, (the farce) the lofts of
the house not only fell down, but also the stage and front
seats, with 200 persons that sat thereon, several of whom
had their arms and legs broke, and others were so much
bruised that their lives are despair'd of.
