      [ Press of matter compelled the exclusion of the following letter from but Saturday ' s Stas ] "WAS FROCLAMSD AQAIK 5 T THE IRISH ^ FEMLS—ISFAKOUS SOFFSBBSI 05 OF TBE PEOPLE ' S PSEfiS—SUKEINDXR OP UK lUanS-ARRlST OF M SSSHB DlTrFT , O ' OOOHEMT AKH WILLIAMS-EEiaN OF IERROB . { From our own Correspondent . ) Dcblis , Jaly 11 th . But one Utile week hss daptta since the date of my last communication to the NoEinEBH Stab , « 4 yet in that week we ha « lived a century in Ireland ! The ^ gorernmut has declared open war against the S oftblscity ; and under the most fltaay pretext , SvUeges and recognised Immunities of the Irish nation ! This te a great charge indeed , bat it is one Trtuch requires no farther proof than what is csnveyed by the history of the past and present week in this un . fortunate coaatry .

      John Mitchel told Gad ' s Eternal Truth—and was transpor ted for doing so , jet others started into the breach I thosa others trill most probably share in the fate of Mitchel , but new men will spring up—not in conpie * but in myriads—to supply their room ! The Tbdth xrUI be told , and the wobk will hi prosecuted . Be the eott what It say , Ireland will be free , and triumphant , end s nation . Itis already known to your readen that a warrant had bsen all the last week in the hands of the police for tbe arreit of ifr John Uarltn , the registered proprietor of the Iai !« Felon newspaper . It is alio kno ^ n to yeur reader * , thit the police failed in patting that warrant iato execution , as Mr Martin b / the advice of his friends keptout of the way , for reisons which willbi afterwards explained . Things remained in this form uj . to

      laitSaturday morning , when , whilst the publication of the Feloh irssbein ? proceeds * with , a gang oi spies and policemen eatered the oHce and seized on all the printed copies of tlat journal , as well as on tho manuscript * , docameats , fetters , and other written papers in the establishment . So * editor ' s deik , as well as every drawer , press , bos , sad bank , were broken open and pillaged . But this emtraga did not satisfy the ruffian depredators . They jnade then a jorlie on the newsvendors and flying-stafiemerf , capturing every copy of the Felon found In ffcjjr possesion , ill-treating and insulting the poor eeatareiif ftey offsred any remonstrance , and dragging fetai away to the ststiou-houses it they attempted any eettre opposition to their plunderers . This order of ttines continued all day on Sitarday . A guard of

      po-Ees kept incessant watch on tbe office , and every person « feo hroBght out a Filok was robbed of It without apology or explanation . The excitement all through town was Intense , A vast crosrd of people thronged up Trinftj . street , where , in the hoaso No . 12 , the Feloh office is kept—the next hoase "So . 11 , being the office of the Iiish TBiBnifE . The police and * spies * still kept guard , and it was several times proposed by some of the joucg ' rebels * to attack them aad break their skulls If they refused to raise the siege . The admonitions ef the more prudent of the people , however , had their Influxnee , and on the part of the public , the peace was not broken . Hois * , however , on the side of the blackguard police . They , as I stated before , anneyed end Insulted hundreds of the standers . by , evidently disposed to provoke a riot , and thereby place the lives ef hundreds in jeopardy .

      In them'tntime , Kr Martin , with the knowledge ana approbation of many of his friends , surrendered himself to his enemy . At eleven o ' clock , he left the Feloh efSoa , unpsrcelved by the crowds , and walked tothehead police oiHce , near the Lower Castle Tard , with which . I belleTe , It communicates by a passago In the rear . Here he waa told that fee magistrates had no power to commit him as It was from College-street police office , the warrant sgainst him was Usned , Ho then proceeded to College itrest , where he turnndered blmielf te tee sitting magistrate , Mr Tyadal , whose coaduot en tho occasion was . gentlemanly and considerate . His committal was- immediately drawn np , and shortly afterwards he wis eaavayed la a covered car , guarded by a few police lien , " to Newgate , distant nearly two miles from College-strest ,

      Frjm t & e-toae . of the Ninon ; and TsistxHC , of Saturday , I had expected en assault on those papers , and tbe arrsst of tbrirtprcprietors . Nothing , feowgrer , ha 4 been svttmpsed against them aU day , and in the evening , accompanied by a friead of mine , I walked down to ass how matters stood in Trinity-street . In College Grten I perceiTed ft tamnltnons roshins of the people , in tbe direction of Westnoreland-street , and on inquiry learned tbat the office of the Xatiox , in D'Oiler-street , had been just broken open by tha police , whilst the proprietor , Mr C . 0 . Daffy , had beea an hour before arretted aitbe honse of hli friend and co-editor , Mr T . D . U'Gee , sear Rathmlnes , a couple of miles oat of town . This report was correct . On reaching the office I found the floor blockaded by a large body of police and 'detsc five * , * whilst without their cirals was a crowd of perhaps two thousand persons . Two cars wars drawn up before

      tha door , into which all the remaining copies of the gittox , £ s well at all the manuscript and written docucents found in the bomb , were piled . This effisa was thoroughly gutted . ' Eren the files , registers , and account books were carried away . Tbe police seemed greedy enough to grabble up the Tery nisrting on the Soar , or the quill-cuttings in the book-keeper ' s offioa . The anger of the people was wish difficulty kept under . At length when all was collected and the cars were » ell patted , tha drivers got the word ' forw ard , ' snd Arc re away amid the yells aad hisses of the exasperated multitude . The procession , followed by the crowd , whieh increased at erery step , west np College Green , Bimsatreet , entering the Castle yard by tha lower sate xIFilaa » -Jtreet , which clanked heavily as it was closed sgaiast the rush of the infuriated people . The crowd Bttered a deep groan for Clarendon , three lusty cheers te tfee Natiok . and separates '

      . - ¦— « * - % la tho meantime ( it was nw ten o ' clock at night , HrBnffy , accompanied by Mr M'Gee , had reached tbe Police office in College-street , where they were kept awaiting the arrival of the magistrate , Mr Tyndal . After the tuns ! formularies , ths committal was made out , and the gallant prisoner again placed in the car , accompanist by his faithful fellow-labourer , Mr M Gee . The crowd hers was yet more aumerons and excited than at the Hatiox ofica half an hour before . They cheered Mr Duffy rapturously , whose bearing resembled that of eosu indomitable Eaman Ti ibnae , and he appeared as if hsppy and gratified in being Tictimised for his coentrj ' s sake , Never did I see a man fac . 8 his enemy srtUi n much heroism . No tremour , no pallor , no sejeettan , was on his intelligent and beaming countenance , fait hiseje fluked proudly as kegazsd on tbe

      enthusiastic groups around . The procession drove away by Saekvflls-itreet , Mary-strest , Cipal-slr ^ et , and Little Britain-street , to Newgate , whose frowniug outline looked ( till more Ssxon iu the gathering gloom of night . Xtsrasa tedious , and at one time a noisy march . The ooa & neiB & dimmfiniBthitthe hsrse could not get eaJofa slow walk , sod the people seemed disposed to taarthe car into fragments . Twice or thrice the horse ¦ kbs rtf r ? d by the reins , and Mr Daffy summoned to eome zsrib from his guards . The policemen ( about thirty in gamber ) tremblsd . They shook like criminals at the { allows . They implored Mr Duffy ' s protection , and he ashly refused to sanction tbe wishes of the people ,

      decSarne ; either to quit tae car or allow any assault on the ftoEee . On arriring at the prison gates Mr Daff y left the ear and lacking on the crowd with a smile , desired teas to gire a cheer , and' one cheer more , ' for Ireland ' s fefepeadence ! Kerer did snch a cheer £ aU on mjears Were , H . r Daffy was thes ushered into the prison , the ssMrvy iron gates of which were slammed rudely in the feca af his friend Mr M Qie . He was then escorted to Bteea in tbe same wing of tbe building in which poor IBteael was coafmed not long ago , This gloomy cell -wa destitute of any faraituro but the usual iron bed-¦ tea 4 with its stem ef straw , but subsequently the galfast prisoner was aUowed to furnish it according to hie

      Iswas now nearly twelve »/ cIock , yet the good day ' s vsk was aot yet concluded . The effice of the Teiidke -Baabow Tisited , but finding nothing- of consrqnence f & ere , the police proceeded to the premises of Mr Pardon oi Baehelor ' a Walk , where that journal is printed . Here tiay captured all tbe printed copies of the psptr which were not dispatched to the office ; and here also tbey capJared D-nis Hoban , a journeyman of Mr Pardon ' * , sndin whose name the Tkibdse is printed . He was takin to the station-house . Oa the Sabbath the campsiga was resumed with resawed activity ! Mr E * Tin Izod O'Dogherty , tha principal ed £ t « r , aad E ' . chard Dalton Williams , tho rertstersd proprietor of the- TanjpwE , were arrested In the forenoon

      Cf Sunday . They were conveyed to College-street station nouse , where they were kept untU the hour fer diliaaatrvlce was over , when Mr Tyndal attended to comait them to Newgate , Few persons being apprised of fctlr arrest , these gentlemen ' s removal to prison was a & eteg without any ercitement or obstruction , Mr OTJogherty is a medical gentleman of high spirit snd snuiderable ttlents ; Mr Williams is also a doctor of pfertle . but better known as a patriot and a brilliant pact than as an ' M . D . ' He was one sf the earliest poets « jf the Finos , and never deserted it altogether . It toi that gentleman who , under the signature of * Sham . sock / gava to the world the * Misadventures of a Medical Student , ' besides maey other delightful and original witty effusions in Terse .

      On Monday the game of persecution was resumed , A second edition of the Filon baring made its appearance , taa police sillied forth again , ani laid siege to ths devoted house , —12 , Trinity-street . A large crowd lingered about the office all day ; some of them earning into eouttlon with the police were 'palled' to the stationboose . Some copies of the Felon aad Tsieuke were captured , from the oewsvendors , and Mr Stephen J . aeany , ef tha Txnuirc , and Mr Joseph Brenan , of the Fxxo * , were arrested for offering their papers for sale . Itis laid that the goTernment will leave 'no stone untamed' to suppress tae Irish movement , and that , if gssalble , every one of these men will be trauiported . It fcaaid , too , that sweepiag measurss for the suppression of ta * Confederate Clubs and the Irish League are in jjK ? aration .

      ( Prom the Mominy Chvmicle ) Draus , July 15 .-The Natiok and the Irish Felon appeared as usual to-day ; but the sale of the latter by tha newavenders was prevented by the police , k notification appeared yesterday cautioning the newavenders azaiasfc selling ' felonious and seditiouspapsra . ' as they would thereby render themseives liable to prosecution . The sale of the paper did not take place to-day at the Fbww t & w , as usual ; but copies were to be had in other places , where tho newsvenders and others contrived to obtain as many as were required . The Nation , howeverwas on sale as usual .

      , Mr John Martin , proprietor of the Irish Felon , has addressed a long letter ' to the Right Hon . the Earl of Clarendon , representative of the boglish government in Iretend . ' Mr Martin refers to the proceedings of the police in preventing the sale of his paper pending his trial , which he describes as ' Whig Tvranny , ' and after alludiKg to the police e » ployed ' on thig duty as ' poor big fellows , ' ha thus concludes : — I have written myself into good humour with you . And now , my lord , if I am to be transported for writing what I believe true in principle , and proper for the cobditlon of my country , I promise to go without enmity in

      my heart against yon , no matter how surely you pack my jury , provided you will permit me to reply to the slaaaers of your pamphleteers and journalists , provided yoa will bs satisfied with killing my body , without also assassinating my character . Tour ' daty' of holding this country for England obliges you to destroy me . To be sura it would be manlier to destroy me by directly shooting me , than secundum artem Zfritanniaaro , by your packed jury . To be sura I can ' t easily get rid of my prejudice about a fair trial . But pack away—only doo ' t stop my paper whUe yonr slanderous journals Bra huntlag down my reputation , I am my lord , one of your prisoners of war . Joan Mabtht .

      Newgate , Thursday night , Jaly 18 , Friday morning , ten o'clock . P . S . _ I have just heard of your police notice , warning the newsmen and newswomen that yonr big bullies and your spies will knock down and rob them if they attempt to sell' seditious' newspapers—that is , any newspapers your said bullies and spies may choose to call seditious . And I have also heard that your Stamp . oSoe , after a ceal of huggger-mugger , consented last night to sell stamps for the ' seditions' newspapers as well as the 'loyal' ones . My lord , you seem inclined to have ths last penny out of us before we go . N . B . —If any newswomaa shonld think of knocking down one of your bullies when in tbe act of street robbery , I hope she will select a very big one . The moral lesaon will be the greater and more instructive .

      Tbe Felon also contains a long letter from Mr Bevin Reilly , which thus commences : — TO BIS EICiLlENCI OEOBQE WILLI AH PBEDI 1 ICS EAKL OT CLARSHD 3 H , TBE ENGLISH QUEEEH ' s mCABCEKAToa OENISAL AND SENEBAL TDBNS . ET OF IBELAND . My Lord—Yoa wUI remark that this letter is more polite than nsnal . And for three reasons—first , for that politeness is cheap , aad that a Lord-Lieutenant who will proclaim and arrest old women caught hawk-10 ? , according to their wonted trade , In the public streets , a mere newspaper , is a very despotic and desperate character , with whom one should keep their manners withal ; second , for tbat I am beginning to have a sort of ridiculous regard foryou personally , quite cognate to my own character ; Inasmuch asyea have at last thrown

      away that sham about legal Institutions and ' courts of justice , ' andbavetakentbehigbhandin defiance and most proper contempt for year law ; and thircly , because I can af old to be polite to you nou , inasmuch as you are beaten . Yes , I say , beaten . Tour' rule' in Ireland was a very fiue moral sham while it lasted , aa a moral phantasmagory . And the ' morality' of the matter was its whole Etrenptb . With your red . faced hirelings , whom you call judges , manglng sanctimoniously about lawwith yeur twelve respectable suborned persons in the box , swearing oath * , and most religiously breaking them according to their conscience— -yuur usurpation here had a ' cloak , ' a mask , hard to make people see through , Under It yon could kidnap , rob , and murder quite decently . Uader it you kidnapped my glorious friend

      —under It you transported one young fine fellow for teaching his brethren how to carry tbe arms common to men—under it you arraigned raa for a ' erime' an' it please you , so utterly and ridiculously unoriminBl , that even yonr own lawyers would not s aop to prssecute me . Ah ! t-e sham was getting very contemptible—the veil wearing very thin . Like a high-souled chief governor , as you are , you fling it aside , and I esteem you fer that . it was very hase and contemptible , that packing oi juries—tbat stabbing of men with your weapon hid under a bit of parchment . Bat I will not dwell on this subjest . You have given n » your hypocrisy ; given up even tbo semblance of packed juries , and going on With yout — 'law . ' Tou arrested my friend , Jobn Martin , for

      felomy , and sent him for trial—tbat is , this newspaper , for trial ; for if it were net felonious , be wai nota felonand the matter of its felony was a question for tbe discriminating consciences of a packed jury , according to Maw , ' and not a question for you . But , nobly and gallantly . I must confess , you anticipated your packed jury , brought ia a verdict of feisny by yourself , and seired the last number—and sot alone tbat . but even without seeing this publication—without having any means of approximating to a gasss whether or no itwould contain the Lord ' s Prayer , er an alarming article by a disappointed detective , you have issued a proclamation agalns * its sale , » Wg-Iettered important proclamation , beaded ' Clarendon to all old women , Ac * And British rule , in yonr hands , has come to this . It is too good .

      Mr Devin Reilly then proceeds in a bantering strain , and concWes with assurances of ' distinguished respect for tbe Lord-Lieutenant , ' from his ' mortal enemy , Thomas Devin Reilly . ' Nest follows another of the Felon writers , Mr Joseph Brenu , wi'h an article headed ' The Crowning of Felony , ' which closes with the following distinct declaration of the object of the Con ederacy ¦ . — War is proclaimed , and uatU it commence , we must spend our time in preparation . Falona of Ireland ! arm , and that immediately ! The breathing space before j on must close with your foemen is brief indeed , and you must treasure every minute .

      The Irish Thibtjne will not be published until Wednesday , bat Mr Stephen J . Meany , one of the writers for that journal , his published a long letter in the Felon , addressed ' To the men of Ireland , ' which thus coaeludes . ' Train , drill , arm , and —¦—' The Felok also has a long essay on ' the duties of jurymen , ' with the motto , 'All jurists hold that no penal lawis binding on conscience . ' The proprietors ef the Ieish Tkibunb , now in Newgate on a charge of fe'ony , have issued the following notification : —

      The Ieish TaianHB . —The proprietors of this journal deelra to State that tbe highway robberies committed * Recording to law , ' on their property by the lordly accomplice of Spanish br & vos and Dublin detectives , have so crippled their resources for the present , tbat they cannot to-day offer the usual amount of' Felony' to their admiring readers . They mean , however , to reappear in the field of joarnalism , now daily becoming more perilous , on Wednesday neit , or Saturday at the farthest , when they hope to make ' each particular hair ' in the wigs of 'legal and constitutional , ' strictly moral , 'and ' respectablfc' Catholic people ' To stand oa end , Like qallls open Ihefretful porcoplne .

      The Nation , although its proprietor , Mr C . G . Duffy , is in Newgate , is as defiant in its tone aB before his arrest . The first article , bearing the initials of Mr Duffy , is headed 'The Point of Attack—the Clubs , ' and shows an apprehension that the government are about to apply for a law for the suppression of those confederacies . Essays : — There is at present no law enabling the English Gq . vernmentto put down the clubs , If they attempted to do eo without law and ' by force , ' they ought to ba re . sieted at every point of attack . No club-room ought to be yielded without a siege . If they ask an Act of Pailianeat it Cannot pass under ten days or a fortnight ; if there were sis houeet and capable Irish members it would not pass this session . But the interval , whatever It may be , ought to be used in spreading the club organisation with the fervour of a crusade . If the Act become law , and our last right be stricken down ,

      the presidents of all the clu ' rs in Ireland might most in a provisional council , summon the coaatry around them , and resist the aggression with arms , Ho fairer ground ef national quarrel can ever arise . It is a ground broad enough and clear enough for a battle-field ; for it in . volves practically tbe last right we possess— . the right to complain and resist . Wbtn It is gone we will have thrown away sword and shield—we may submit aad die . * * * Meet ths aggressioa of England by a firmer front and closer ranksdoable and quadruple year power and resources : plant your olubs thick from shore to shore , and if no way else is left , strike with an armed hand for the last hops of ths Irish race .

      proprietor of the paper , there are the following passages . The italics we Mr Martin ' s own : — I tell yoa , Orangemen , — -if you are Christians , honest men , man of common sense , — -it is your duty , before God and man to resist the crown and dominion' that la making slaves , panders , and rogues out of honest meti—and sturdy hoaeat men you once were . It la jour duty to take your guns—to ] get guns and pikes—to rise UP In arms , If you have them or can get them—wi' ° weaponless-hands if you cannot—to rise , armed and unarmed , and say to your rulers aad landlords , that the

      rale of oar country must be arrested—that the ruin of us all , body and soul shall not be consummated . If they will not listen to you—if they will not practically acknowledge the right of Ireland to Irish property—the right of Irishmen to live , by free industry , upon their own land—if thoy will not become loyal to Ireland , and truly rule this country of ours—and I belkvi then ^ made up their minds ¦ that they mill not -then , away with tham 1 drive them eutof our bounds 1—they have forfeited their ' rights of property '—their estates buve lapsed to ' the origlual owners , tho people !—out of Ireland with them , at the pike ' s point !

      • Crown and dominion , 'indeed!—* Oar glorious constitution' !— 'Integrity of tbe empire' !— 'Peace , law and erder' !—Bah ! Why , how dare these men talk of lav > or « ani ti ( ution to sanction tbe horrible social anarchy raging In Ireland , under their lying forms and protesces t Yfhen honest men starve in tho mldstof p lenty when typhus and dysentery are the surest' institutions ' of the country—when mean fraud and shameless perjury occupy the high places of our * government '—how dare they , I say again , so much as whisper the words , 'law , poace , order , ' as an excuse for maintaining , for a single day , thia vile system under which an entire people are pillaged , and brutaliaed , aad massacred t There is no law— there is bo govtrM » Ml—there is no sotial wit *—there are no rights of property In our community ! lastead of these , we hav e mutual wrong and oppression , artificial pauperism , famine , and plague , invited and forced Into operation—ruin of the whole people , body and soul !

      ARREST OP MB DOHENT . A correspondent of the Freeman ' s Journal gives the following version of the arrest an-I rescue of Mr Doheny . barrister : — ' Casdel , July 10 . —Aa eoon as it was known that Mr Doheny was being conveyed from the magistrates offices by a back way , for the oity gaol , the streets resounded with th © heavy trampings of the mob aa they ran to the rescue ; and whether for « ood or evil , to our credit or discredit , let what will be said , there waa a rescue . That Mr Doheny is now in gaol is his own faalt , no man will deny it . Neither the magistrates nor the inspector can deny it ; and he was rescued , too , before the mob were halfway to tho scene / The people of one street did it—that in the vicinity of the gaol . The number of po lice to be sure , and it is but just to say it , that guarded the prisoner waa very email ; bnt it mattered little , ten times the number would have been torn piecemeal , I verily believe , but for the vice- l

      presidents and wardens of our clubs . Never , in al ray lifoi did I witness such determination . Mr Daheny spoke several times from a winiow to no purpose . The prominent members of the clubstrove with aU their might to open a passage to no purpose , everything was done to calm the populace , but no'hing effected . The police were hurled about like so many footballs . They were ordered to load by their commander , but the Hon . Martin Ffronon , oar worthy magistrate , countermanded the order . At last Mr Doheny again essayed to speak . He implored the people by the love they bore him , by every thing they he'd dear , to let him go . and that he would soon return , for his offence was bailable , and that he had only to go to Rosorea , give bail , and then return . This , and this alone , pacified the people . They shouted , ' We will , we will , ' and quickly withdrew . The commanding officer now feared to consent to Mr Doheny ' a proceeding to the gaol without a larger force . The force came , but they were not wanted . '

      1 BBITJL OT HB DOHENY AT NBNAGH . At Moneygall the Rosorea police and military gave np their' prisoner' to a division of police from Nenagh , under the command of Sub-Inspector O'Dell and a company of theMlh Regiment of foot , under Captain Talbot and Lieutenant Thorrel . The advent of Mr Doheny . into Nenagh under these circumstances was expected , and a large concourse of persons assembled on the Dnblin-road , in the neighbourhood of Castle , street , and about Peter-street , and tbe large area that opens before the Court-house . The streets , in fact , were thronged by ' the bold peasantry' of Tipperary ; and as the carriage with its escort made its appearance , a continuous succession of loud and hearty cheers were given for Mr Doheny , who . from the windows of the vehicle , acknowledged

      the favours bestowed . upon him by the people . As the military , were turaing up Peter-street , on the way to the gaol , a strong rush was made by a body of the people ; . aome excitement arose , four or five of tho soldiery were knocked against a butcher's stall at the corner ef that street , and fears were beginning to prevail that an attempt would be made to rescue him frem the brittling bayonets by which he was accompanied $ but the escort-passed on without further peril and about half-past twelve o ' clock the carriage reached the county gaol , and after standing a few seconds on the steps of tbe carriage , Mr Doheny entered the gates of the prison , where he was given in charge to Mr Rock , the governor ; and the crowd having given further hearty cheers , separated .

The Limerick Chronicle of Saturday containa the following;— ' Mr Meagher last night addressed another crowd of persons from a window in the house of Dr Geary , J . P ., George-street , where he had dined . He said the county Limerick grand jury had found true bills against him , that some of tbat panel , including the foreman , were members of the late Irish Council , which had advocated the national doctrines for which he is now to be tried as a felon . He adverted

      indignantly to the seizure of Mr Gavan Duffy ' s property in Dublin , and designated our rulers as the government robbers . He thanked the government notwithstanding for sending him te trial te Limerick , where he had now found a sure and substantial footing . He cared not for the court , the government , or the army , and he entreated the people of Limerick to organise and increase the clubs , now becoming of universal formation throughout Ireland . Let them never forget the tens ef thousands of thpir kindred and countrymen starved to death by English misgovernment , and mouldering in untimely graves ; and resolve never to suffer the glorious harvest of this year to pass but of their hands at the peril of adding to the human sacrifice of tbe last two years .

      ' This day , at twelve o ' clock Mr Meagher appeared in court to plead to the indictment , and he then traversed inprox . until next assises . '

      THE AUSK 1 CAN BTOPATHISBBS . The New York correspondent of a northern paper has a curious piece of intelligence—tbat the secret committee is contriving means for the release of Mr Mitchel , but the exact natnre of the agency is not known . It appears , however , that a fl eet of fast-Bailing Bcbooaera is being fitted out with an experienced officer at the head of the expedition . One division is said to have actually sailed in the last week of June , commanded by Richard T . O'Connor , of the Irish Volun . tkeb . Another is ready for the beginning of July , under Messrs Robert Emmettand J . Tyler .

      been no effort made to improve trade or commerce , to supply employment to the able-bodied , or lo stay starvation in the homes of the poor . But our beneficent rulers have not been idle—felons' cells are on the increase ; 'jury-packing * is up in the market ; there are brightening prospects fer ' pet jury ; ' and jailors , tnrnkeys , harigmen , and Attorney-Generals have their hands full of lucrative employment . These aro tbe times—tha glorious days of Whiggery , when doing evil deeds is no crime , and the only guilty party is he who exposes them ! It is a most extraordinary fact , that , as yet , no attempt has been made to bring to justice the parties who were concerned in the murder of nearly twe millions of Irish subjects during the last two years ; but , on the contrary , that those alone are prosecuted who busy themselves in exposing those who had a hand in that memorable ^ _

      maasaore . Mr Mattm , proprietor of the Feuin , is now immured in a pickpocket ' s den in ftewgate , Dublin , not because he helped to spill the unappeased blood of our people , but because he is holding their murderers up to odium . It is so with Mr Charles Gavan Daffy , proprietor of the Nation . It is so with Messrs Williams and O'Dogherty , the proprietors of the Tribune . Itis so with Mr Denis Hobaa , the registered printer of the Tribunk . It is so with Mr Doheny , now confined in a felon ' s ce'l in Nenagh jail . It is so with Messieurs T . D . M'Gee , E . Hollywood , and Thomas Francis Meagher , now on bail , te stand their trial on a charge of sedition .

      These are the nine men who had not the prudence to see humanity outraged without adissentient voice . They are now to stand before the tribunals of their enemy , and to meet the fate packed j uries can award . But that verdict cannot rob them of the patriot ' B-fame . "Tia to the virtues of soch men man owes His portion in the good that Heaven bestows . PflOSECOTIONB AGAINST THE NKWBVSKDKRB . At the various police offices , this day , July 16 , informations were preferred by the police against newsvenders for selling copies of the Nation and Fblon newspapers . At the Head-office , Serjeant Browne , A 91 , brought a boy named Patrick Cullen before Messw

      Porter and Magee , for * vending a seditious publication called the Nation . ' It appeared that be was crying various papers , amongst others the Nation , when the eons'able went up and asked for a Nation . The prisoner denied he had one , bnt on searching him the constable found a copy . The paper was handed to tho magistrates , when Mr Porter read tbe leading article , bearing the initials' C . G . D , ' Attar a long discussion , in which Mr Rea , a solicitor , appeared for the prisoner , Mr Porter declared that the paper was a seditious publication , and that tbe magistrates would send the case for adjudication before a jury . Ultimately it was arranged to bind the prisoner to appear to-morrow , when informations will be received . _ . _

      At Henry-street office Police constable C 48 , charged Ellen Roche with sellhg copies of the Nation and Feu > n newspapers , on Saturday last , the same being aeditious and felonious publications . Mr Kelly , the presiding magistrate called for the papers referred to . The constable stated tbat he did not deprive the prisoner of them . Mr Kelly therefore dismissed the case . At College-street office Joseph Mooney was charged by B 4 , with an offence similar to the above , before Mr Tyndal . The papers were produced and identified by the constable . Mr Tyndal said , I will send this base for trial to the next sessions . The prisoner having entered into two securities of £ 10 each , to appear at the sessions , was discharged . ( From the Correspondent of the Daily News . )

      Dcbum , Jcxv 17 . —Mr Doheny waa admitted to bail on Saturday evening ; tbe charge , therefore , can have been only for sedition . After regaining his liberty , he started for Cashel , where tbe King Cormao Club received him with open ranks . Thence he was away yesterday to tbe broad ridge of Slievenamoa in an openbarouohe , drawn by four horsps , » nd attired in tbe half-forgotten uniform of the ' 82 club . The precession from the City of Monarchs is said to have reckoned 8 , 000 . On reaching the summit the host was met by a mighty assemblage composed of Cork , Waterford , Wexford , and Tipperary boys—the hill abutting on nearly all these counties . The chair was not filled , as stated in the programme , by Mr Doheny , but he spoke at some length , ' advised the people to form clubs , cawtioned them to be firm and fear not , and the day ' wsa their own . ' There was no disorder beyond that which accompanies the gatherins of some 80 , 000 persons—the report sets down 50 , 000 .

      I have just learnt that Mr Meagher proceeded from Waterford to the place of meeting in a carriage drawn by six horses , and followed by the clubs of Waterford in military array . On the return of the procession in the evening some of the authorities were disposed to prevent them entering the eity in marching order , and it was proposed to support a command that they should break ranks and enter in civil mode by the military and cannon if necessary . The magistracy of Waterford re ' used , it is said , to sanction the latter measure . The toll-bar was put down before the procession reached the bridge at the Kilkenny side of the Suir and it was enjoined tbat the procession should break up before

      being allowed to pass . The answer was a burst which took away the whole ioll-bar , and the party entered in triumph . The article in last Saturday ' s Nation has been much canvassed , and suggests a belief that an outbreak , if not directly invited , is at least insinuated as an effective mode ' to set the prisoners free . ' The clubs are undergoing a mere perfect organisation . They are being divided into sections and sub-sections , so as to answer to the roll-call , and eome more readily under the eye of the commander . All their movements , however , are well-known ; their minutest acta are reported to the police . Reports are furnished by members of their own body , and , knowing this , they proceed with necessary caution .

      I learn from a private letter tbat sixteen arrests have taken place in Cashel , in consequence of the attempted rescue of Mr Doheny . The soldiers q uartered in the town and the inhabitants are on the worst terms . Tho civilians complain that the soldiers have paraded the streets , crying ont , * To hell with the pope ! ' & o . ; while the soldiers complain that they have been insulted and attacked by the civilians . An application has been made at Enniskillen te Mr Justice Perrin , to admit Mr Martin to bail . His lordship refused to entertain the question until tho informations were laid before bins . They have been sent down from the Crown-office to Omagh , where the learned judge will hear and determine .

      DEFARTURB OP LORD CLARENDON . It ia stated that Lord Clarendon will leave for London in the course of the present week . The object of his Excellency ' s visit is understood to be b consult with the government on the alarming state of Ireland , and to urgo the imperative necessity of tbe adoption of some stringent measure for the repression of treason and tho more effectual crushing of an incipient insurrection . There are reports of fresh prosecutions to-day . It is alleged that Mr Meagher is to be prosecuttd under the Treason Felony Act , for a speech delivered by him to tbe populace of Limerick on last Friday evening . However , no reliance whatever can be placed on snch reports .

When the ' Chartists , Jonos , Fussell , Vernon , and the others were arrested , we , over in Ireland , imagined that the government would not be daring enon / fh to follow up their stroke .

We are mistaken , English subjects hate been victimised ; and it appears that no man in London nor lnEnglaad , no more than in Dublin , mast open his mouth to impeach the Whigs , or claim the protection which the chartered laws of England profess to give ail tho subjects of the British realm ,

      This is truly alarming . None ean tell how or where it will end .

The Whig slavof-the EVMiwo Post and Oo .-are working heaven and earth , to make people belleve that no bills were eoagbt for against these gentlemen and that the matter has been rthmita some future day . This is rank falsehood . The bills of indictment were sought for on the part of the Crown , but they werenotfoundl Thegrandjury ignored them , and the government was signally defeated ! This is the irae statement of the case . The government did their utmost , and that in a shabby , bungling , treacherous , Whya \ sh manner too , bnt they were failed ! T . D .

      But thetlmafor talking of'trial by jury or formal prosecutions is almost over . People think so , at all events , Men say that a trial of another sort awaits Ireland , and thatshe will either walk forth free and triumphant for ever , or be bound down in renewed fetters for another century ! This would be a long incarceration Indeed ; but if Ireland comes to that threatened TRIAL , and if she be found unprepared or unwilling to grapple her enemy , she may not expect mercy . Strange things are talked of ; straogs things are In men ' s minds : —for

      better or worse , strange events are rapidly approaobfng . 0 . Q , Daffy , John Martin , Dalton Williams , end Kevin O'Dogherty , are still in the dark holds of Newgate . They will pack a jury to try them , and if conviction follows' paobin ? , ' transportation will follow conviction . Of this there caqnot be a doubt . The government are resolute on the affrlr , aad , if possible , will put the quktut on Duffy and Martin ! The people say that they will not stand this ! They swear the Mitchel tragedy shall not be re-enacted , and that Duffy and his fellow patriots shall never l- > ave Dublin alive .

      The walls of Dublin aro placarded with royal notices , to hawkers , newovendore , and . ' aU others concerned , cautioning them against selling , or carrying , er oifdriag for distribution , any seditions or mischievous papers or publications ! Notwithstanding this'denohing ukase the Nation and Feloh came oat on Saturday as usual , and if they have not assumed a more sturdy tone than ever , they certainly have not more conciliation . These journals make no hesitation at aU in declaring the intentions of the writers—tbey burl defiance at the go . vernmeat , and call on the people to' arm' and' prepare ' for that struggle , which is inevitable aad rapidly approaching . Castle commands have lost their omul , potence , and police , and ' authorities' are set at defiance .

      The Tautms did not appear on Saturday , Some disarrangement with the printers , consequent on the late sMncfes on that Journal , have prevented ito » ppenranc » last week ,, but it will come out more ' felonious' than ever on Wednesday , tbe 19 th . A notice to that tffoct was inserted in the weekly papers of last Saturday , and an immense placard at the office door , surmounted by a gigantic pike , conveying tbe same intelligence to all who pass the way . A meeting of the city clubs was to have been held at Bellevao on yesterday ( Sunday ) . Mr Smith O'Brien was to preside , and to' review' the forces , as he did at Cork last week . The meeting , however , was not held . Various causes are assigned by ignorant or prejudiced parties for this adjournment , Some say the leaders stsgged ! Others aver that the clubs would not obey their leasers ! This i « all noceense : there were good and weighty rea . sons why the meeting was abandoned .

      The Orange demonstrations in Dublin and in Ulster were miserable abortions , The spirit of Orangeism Is not dormant , but dead ! Nothing oeuld be mors miserable than the attempts made at its revival on the present ecoaeian . In every town and vUlage where the trumpet of resurrection was blown , there was scarcely an echo to tbe feeble call . Oraogekm is gone I There will be a second meeting of the new Irish League held in the Music Hall on Wednesday evening . It will be far more important than its predecessor , though that —all circumstances considered—was one of tbe finest In-door meetings ever held in Dublin .

      It is with sincere regret I have to record tbe death ef Dr Wm . Griffin , of Limerick , ono of tho most devoted and enthusiastic of Irishmen . Dr Griffin wast tbe brother of ths celebrated Irish novelist , Gerald Griffin—author of ' Tales of the Munster Festival , ' and several other splendid works , in arose and verse . Ho was , himself , pos > seised of high literary talents , toe , and , not many years ago ushered into the world a very excellent and very popular piece of biography— ' The Life of Gerald Griffin . ' The Doctor had good practice ia his profession , and was universally beloved and respected . He was amongst tho first of his townsmen who dissented from the Concllitttoa Hall doctrines , and he has ever since remained a firm and consisteat member of the council of the Irish Confederation . Ha was still in the prime of life , and his death was as unexpected as it is lamented .

      Everything promises an early and abundant harvest . The weather , which in the commencement of the month was wet and uncongenial , has set in sunny and delightful , and the crops are quickly hastening to maturity . Every pare of the country looks luxuriantly beautiful . I except , of course , thousands of places , where tbe hand of the exterminator has left ito destroying impress , levelling cabins , cottages , and farm houses , and leaving fields—nay , whole farms , untitled and unplanted . And I alsomustexceptinnumerable patches aud ' gardens ' , which lie waste from the wretched occupants wanting the meant of cultivation . But where proper cultivation did take place , Providence has been most bounteous , Tbe po tato crop particularly is represented as being unusuall y flour lob ing . Some complaints of failure have been

      made , and I also learn tbat indications of ' rot' hare manifested themselves in same isolated instances but up to this , there ia no cause of alarm on account of that invaluable crop . These circumstances , one shoaU think , are of themselves sufficient to raise tbe hopes of the ceuntry ; but , alas ! they seem to have an effect quite different . Monstrous sotver as it may appear , there are thousands in Ireland who would prefer another blight—an entire destruction of tbe fruits of tha earth—ratber than that they should grow andjripen for tbe robber . landlord ! This is fact . Wo know very well that the gifts of a generous Providence aro not for the starving Irish peasantry . Wo know his corn will be cwrled away , and his potatoes sold , to satiety the rapacity of bis greedy lord . The poor-rate collector , the

      tax-man , and the bailiff , uutt beatified ; and the wretched tenant who , femtehieg and half-naked , struggled to till that ground and piaat that orop , mult seo the fruits of his labour carried away before his eyes , and his pining wife and yelling children left to struggle on with hunger , cold , nakedness , and despair . Hence the apathy with which ha views the verdure ef the meadows and the glories of the tillage-fields . Hence thousands—as I said just new—would prefer tho simoon , or tbe mtosmo—the 'blast , ' or the mildew , to genial showers and ripening sunshine . They would rjther see the red brand of the tbunder-cloud searching up the corn or the potatoes , than see the bailiff with his cart and bis police guards , enter their fields , aad swe * p away alt for the greedy landlord and the thankless absentee ] What a state of society , when men feel and speak In

      this manner ! In Dublin the markets are cheap , and plentifully sup . plied . Broad i ( nst more than one-balf the price of last year , whilst batcher ' s meat Is equally moderate ; vegetables and gardea fruits , are goad end abundant ; and it is remarked , too that flowers and blossoms of all descrip . lions , are naneuBlly luxuriant and beautiful this season , Tbo ' clubs' are springing up rapidly all over Ireland . In every hamlet , in the lowly glens , and on the mouataln aldts , the people are banding themselves into clubs , and there is nothing spoken of but ' arms' and insurrection , fearful indeed is the contemplation of what is likely to occur just now iu Ireland . However , the people do not seem disposed to calculate cons , quenoes now . The day , I believe , Is past when our rulers might have made advances which would be accepted by a people naturall y disposed to loyalty and peace . '

They are doubtless under the consideration of the Privy Council now—three o ' clock—sitting at theCastle : — 4 meeting of the officers of the Dublin clubs , held on Saturday sight , July 15 th , 1848 , John B .

Esq \ , president of the Oliver Bond Club , and adopted unanimously : —

      « The systematic efforts made by writers in the fay of the British government to caaae it to bo beloved that the Repeal clubs of Ireland are organised for the purpose of pillage and massacre , and for the overthrsw of religion and social order , render it expedient that m should define the real objects of the club organisation ; be it therefore resolved and de * ' That the purposes and end of our organisation are the overthrow of the power of the British legislation in this island . ' Tbat while we are firmly resolved to abstain , in our political capacity , from any interference in matters of a religious or sectarian character , weave not the less desirous that reluion should be upheld , and the legitimate influence of its ministers maintained in its integrity .

      ... That so far from desiring to overthrow social order , and tosubjeet our country to universal anarchy , our first anxiety has been , and is , to secure the legislative independence of onr country with the least possible injury to any class of its inhabitants , and in the acoonn . lisnment of these our designs we hope to put an end forever to the sufferings and thedisorders which have never ceased to afflict our people under the away of Britain ; John B .

      HIGHLY IMPORTA . NT FROM IRELAND , ( From the correspondent of the Morning Chroniclt . ) Dublin July 18 . EMBAarATion or police l ? kihsstown fob WATKaroBD . The town is full of rumours of war , and reports of risings in nrovinces . According to some of the newsmongers 60 , 000 men are in arms in Tipperary , and others have it that Waterford is in the hands of the Confederates , There is no doubt but that Tipperary and Waterford are in a very exoited state . With respect to Waterford , it may be stated that a body of police , or as they are called constabulary were dispatched from the depot in the park per rail to Kingltown this morning , from thence tbey embarked ia a government steamer for Waterford ,

      ODTBBSAE AT CABKICK ON-BUIR . ( From the correspondent of tbe Daily News , ) The crisis would appear to have commenced , and to have had operation , where all men who know the temper of the people would have anticipated , in the county of Tipperary , The formidable organisation , which the club system assumed in Carrick-on-Sair , the enrolment of 2 000 , out of a population litt ' e exceeding 10 , 000 , the parade in avowed opposition to official warnings , it well known ; and what presented the most grave feature in the case , the head of the organisation was openly and avewedly assumed by the Rev . Mr Byrne , Catholic curate in Carrick . This rev . gentleman marched at the head of the clubs of Carrick to the meeting on Slievenamon , where he made a speech that led to his arrest . The rev . gentleman was arrested in the afternoon of yesterday , at Carriok . on-Suir . The information of the occurrence , coming from such a distance , is necessarily vague , bat

      about the main facte there is none . The rev . gentleman , a f ter bis arrest , was conveyed to tbe Bridewell , which is a strong building , and there he was lodged for the night , with the intention of conveying him to Clonmel this morning , The distance between both is twelve Irish miles . The news of the rev . gent eman ' s arrest spread rapidly through the town , and immense crowds instantly collected , which , being joined by the peasantry from the vicinity , soon assumed a very formidable aspect . They approached the Bridewell with cries and menaces , demanding the instant liberation of their priest .
