THE Last True and joyful news FROM IRELAND.  
Reported, and red in the Honourable House of Commons, And now published for the satisfaction of all those that desires to know the state and condition of that Kingdom.  
SIR,  
YOu have often solicited me for the knowledge of the Occurrences of our distressed kingdom of IRELAND I shall now endeavour to satisfy your Desire, and I hope your expectation. The news I hope will bee acceptable, as will appear by these particulars, viz.  
Vpon the tenth day of this month, Captain Thomas Newburgh with a few men▪ that he raised in great hazard of his own person, took in Castle-Derrick, a place of great consequence and strength, killed the men, possessed their arms, and in his absence being gone for Ammunition, left the Castle to a young Gentleman M. DVRDO, where o'neill the great rebel immediately besieged it with six thousand men, but M. Durdo with great courage having only twenty men to man the cast and Bawn, beat him off, and slay about two hundred of his men, and presently after sallied out, and slay one prime Gentleman of Oneiles, and ten more, and took two Colours and a drum, with loss of three of his own men; all which and himself afterwards for want of Ammunition were forced to leave the Castle, and every one shift for themselves, where some misled upon the Mountains, happened upon the Enemies quarters instead of ours and were killed, M. Durdo with great hazard lying upon the Mountains two nights escaped to us.  
Sir William Stewart understanding a great party of the Oneils were in the Kerrils woods, sent out Captain Balfour a deserving soldier with one hundred men, who skirmished with them, killed fifty Rebels, lost seven of his own men, and brought home 400 Cowes  
Some four dayes after, Sir William Stewart desired Lieutenant colonel Sanderson, and sergeant mayor James Gilbraith to march from Newtown to relieve Agher, and Aghatyan, with 500 foot, and 100 horse.  
The second night in extremity of weather, we m●rcht to the Agher, and quartered in Clogher, a mile and a half distant; the enemy fell that night into one ptrt of ourquarters, but upon the alarum of the Sentinels, the main Guard issued out, killed some and chased the rest.  
The next morning we marched out into Fermanagh, where in taking of five hundred Cowes, as many sheeps, and 300. horses, we killed 70. Rebels, and upon our return we besieged Colonel Donnogh, Oneils Castle, being strongly imbattailed and flanckt, after many shot past on both sides, the wind turning upon the fore-part of the house, we fired some out-houses, in the smoke whereof we approached the Gate, set it on fire, entred the Castle, put the men to the sword: in which march we relieven 6000. women and children, which otherwise had perished. In  
In this service Ensign Long behaved himself as if he had been bullet proof: at hand whilst we were employed in this service, the Rebels drew down upon Sir William Stewarts Newtown, and the Castle played off, and killed 50 of their men in the streets, and preserved the Town except one house or two at the furthermost end.  
Likewise, colonel Nugent a most seditious Instrument, that married the Lord of Eniskellens Mother, drew about six hundred about Ballyshannon Castle, a place of great strength and importance, against whom Sir RALPH GORE, and Captain MAXWELL a forward Gentleman, drew out some two hundred men, and sixty horse, who encountered them, Routed them, and killed upwards of 180. Rebels, took colonel Nugents horse, besides many that came down the River by dozens and tens which were killed by the Foot, and nor one man lost of our side.  
Divers sallies were made by Captain John Falliot, a worthy Gentleman, deserving mudh commendations for his co●rage and discretion, as also by his Lieutenant William Ancktill, Esquire, a bold Comrade, sometime killing 20. 30. in which Captain Falliot received a sore wound in his hand, being at the sword entred, and beset with the Rebels.  
After this out forces marched out with 400 men, and having burni the Corn, and the Enemies Garrisons was in his march homeward, by the Rebels with eight hundred men, with great violence charging his Vanne, and unexpectedly four hundred more of the Rebels charged him on the rear, he put them all to flight, killed upwards of one hundred men got sixty muskets, and many pikes, he hath taken all their Boats upon Loughearn, sunk their Cotts, and both by Land and Water made himself a very good Passage, though I conceive he is now in much distress.  

Another famous Victory obtained by that wrrthy Champion, Sir Ralph Gore his Regiment.  
Sir Ralph Gore his Regiment being in number five hundred foot, marched towards the baronies of Boylagh and Bannagh and Tinnugh, being baronies that had been wholly wasted by the Rebels, where for thirteen weeks we had no sustenance, but what wee pulled out of the Rebels mouths.  
This Regiment were for the most part mingled in service, and having a great scope as 36. long Irish miles to guard, and every way passable for the enemies entrance, and the charge of many souls there residing and following their Vocations, as in the rhyme of peace; besides, the conflux of thousand of plundered Families I believe in a serious construction it will deserve the title of miraculous service: for few nights, but the enemy attempted in several places with ●ight-horse to burn the country, which they never in the least way prevailed in, but many times returned with a weaker master then they went forth.   
This Relation was red in the Honourable House of Commons.
