( From the Morning Herald . ) About two o clock this day a party of police entered the tooths of the Irish League , No . 2 . _Dameatreet , and inquired for Mr Haipiu . He was at the time in an adjoining room , speaking to Mr Rea , of Belfast , and the police having gone into the room arrested bim and conveyed him to the office of the police cotamiBsionera of the Lower _Castle-yatd . Mr Rea followed and wag refused admission .

Mr Rea demanded to see their warrant , bnt thp . y produced none . He was then conveyed a _prls . ner into the same building as Halpin . One of
the clerks connected with tbe Irish League , named O ' Grady , applied to see Halpin , but was refused . He inquired of the police Serjeant when he could see him , and was told not until he was removed to Kitmainham . Shortly after the same police force returned to the League rooms and took possession of them and all the books , papers , correspondence , & c ., even bits of torn paper lying on the floor and in the _fire-plar-e were gathered up aud taken . Most of the books were in blank . The police also took 500 copies of pamphlets which they found upon the premises , containing a report of Mr Mitchel ' s trial , and also a large map of Ireland which hung over the chinmeypiece . They then went away ; but previous to their departure , the clerk , Mr O'Grady , requested the _serjeant te leave them the letters of Dr Blake and tbe Hod .

Arms have bean discovered in places most ingeniously contrived for concealment , but in no very great quantities . The police have received information that arms have teen concealed in the village , surrounding the oity . The search will commence on Monday .
Four persons-rota the village ef _Blsohard-towa , in the vicinity of Dablin , were committed thia day to _Kiiaain-am under the Habeas Corpus Suspension Act .

Clontarf , which was a great resort of tho Confederates . This person was dressed in a green uniform * FORCIBLE SOPPBBSSIOK OF THB * HA-IO- * ' ANV ' - "BIOS . ' Between the hours of five and _oix o ' clock on Friday evening a party of sixteen polioemen , armed with _outlases , proceeded to the printing-office of the Nation newspaper , in _Saokville-lane , and _seizad all the printed copies of Saturday ' s intended publication , and a large quantity of blank paper , amounting altogether to about 8 . 000 blank sheets—all duly impressed with the government stamp , and in course of preparation to be issued ol Saturday . They destroyed the ' forms' of the paper , which were in type- and having _rendered all I he _niatertals in the office unfit for
use , removed the entire , with the exception of the machiEe , to Saokville-lane -tatioB boose . They also arrested the workmen who happened to bt assembled in the office , and conveyed them to Henry-street policeoffice . While the above proceedings were in operation , another party entered the publication office in D _Olier-street , took possession of all the bonks and papers it contained , and arrested a young man named Wilkinson , connected with this department of the paper ; A third eection ef the force were at thes _. me time similarly employed at the office of the Fbloh in Trinity-street , the whole movement having been . _imultaneously conducted . Here tbe efficers arrived in a covered oar , whioh was laden witb spades , _pickaxeo , and other instruments necessary for
the purpose which they had in view . They destroyed the 'forms , ' which were nearl y completed tor publication on Saturday , and had tbem brought away to College-street station-house . They thenproceeded to dig vp the ground floor of the premises , where they had boen induoed to suspect arms had been concealed ; but after a laborious investigation they were not able to disover any . The flooring cf all the stories was raited , in expectation that treasonable papers would be discovered , but here , too , the search proved fruitless , None of the persons usually connected with the paper were in _ e office when the constables arrived , having been absent at dia __ er ; in the interval intima tion soon reached thorn of their fortunate _esoape
from arrest . At Henry-street police office the persons employed in the Natios office , were brought up before Dr Kelly , by Superintendent M'Carthy , charged with having' printed , and aided and abetted in tbe printing of a publication of tbe Nation of Saturday , the 29 th of July ; the siid paper containing articles of an unlawful and seditious character , calculated to seduce Her Majesty ' s subjects from their allegiance . ' It appears that previous to the seizure the usual supply intended for the country and _Euglwa a . _entB o the Nation had been sent to the Post office , where they were detained , and their treasonable character discovered .
Mr Rea attended for the prisoners , whoso nameB were , Thomas Delany , Luke Quill , James Brady , Andrew M'DonnelJ , A . H / ggins , Patrick M D _» nnell , Charle 3 R _ ly , Patrick _M'Keon , Robert _K'Keon , and James Delany . The charges having been stated , Dr Kelly said , he would send the prisoners for trial , and intimated that he would attend at the office at seven o clock this evening to receive bail for their appearance . The amount required for Mr Delany , his worship stated , would be himself in JE 200 , and two sureties iu £ 100 each ; aod fer the remainder _, with the exception of James Delany , their own _seourity of £ 50 , and two sureties in £ 25 each . Mr Rka stated that Delany , who is a very * f _OHDg Jad , had only gone to the printing , office with hia father ' s dinner , and was not aiding in the printing or publication of the Nation , and applied that a smaller amount of bail might bo taken in bis case .
Dr _K-LL 7 consented to take Delany ' a owb bail in £ 20 , and two sureties in £ 10 each . Abont half-past eight o ' clock the _rrisoners were removed in tbe police van to Newgate . THE LAST * NATION . ' The Correspondent of the Morning Chronicle says : — By accident I succeeded in _gettLag a peep at one of the captured numbers of the Natioh _, Intended for tbis day ' s dissemination , and I must say It has been moat providential that the circulation has been stopped . The leading article is headed , ' The Tocsin of Ireland , ' and contains a most exciting appeal to tbo people to rush at once to
_bthib I It says , * We declare this war is just and necessary , that men may enter on it uith free consciences , and a full _atsurance that it is Heaven's work . ' Further on it udds : ' Let ( his be _otw laststriiggle . Earth is weary of our groans ! Let us kindle her heart __ with the roar of our onset , and soothe tt with the Te Deum of our victory . ' Those who excited the people to their present frenzy , and invoked tbem to resistance , bnt who would shrink from the con . sequences ef their own acts , are warned thuB ' .- — 'Let no man toho has -l ' mulaf „ _tTiis quarrel by word or thought presume tohold hack now ; if he does he is dishonoured and attuned .

INVASION OF TUB DAVIS CLUB . Inspector _Hoveoden last evening paid a visit to the Davis Club , which usually held itB _Bederunta in _New-rew , South . The Confederate books had the principal leaves torn out . Several seditious documents were discovered , including printed copies of the celebrated letter of Father Bermingham , for which he afterwards said his mea culpa . _Passtiokets were also found , and other articles , which show that the rebels had , by the granting of commissions , been on the eve of organising a _. _emi-military force . ( From the Morning Advertiser . )
Watebpobd— 'Sicee our last publication , ' says the Waterford Chronicle , ' no less than four ships have entered our port carrying troops . The corvette Tweed , conveying 20 guns—the brig Frolic , and the steamers Royal Adelaide and Dragon , all laden with troops , tha greater part of whom have been marched to Carriok _. As yet no disturbance has taken place . Special constables are swearing in , and every necessary precaution is now being taken to make _s sue-, _cessful defence , in case the city . euld be attacked . However , it is probable the services of this new brigade will not be called into requisition , unless very great _necessity should arise ,
About 400 men ot the Bafts arrived hero a few days ago , and were paraded along our quays on yesterday , on their way to the recently constructed camp on Mr Milwafd ' a hill , near this city . Aa they payed towards the encampment , thousands of idle boys and daring women walked aide by side with them , and the general cry was— Fear not the Buffs , they will not fire on their countrymen . ' Owing to the-agitation and fearful excitement trade is almost entirely at . a stand in Waterford . Shopkeepers are doing no business _whatevor—it is a melancholy state of things ,
LmsBiCK —Every hour we have fresh rumours of an alarming nature from all parts , but in no instance haa the intelligence of outbreak or disturbance been confirmed .

However the soldiers lowered their window Ba . _hes , and with their capa in their hand cheered the speaker . ( From the correspondent of the Morning Chronicle . ) Dublin , Jolt 30 . —It is now quite manife . that the government acting with great prudence , have determined to delay the captore of Smith O'Brien and the other leaders in the insurgent _movement and
the dispersion ofthe wretched and delud . d peasants who follow him , until they have concentrated a military force so powerful around the rebel gathering , that any attempt at resistance would be impossible . It ia stated that the arrangements will be finall y completed tomorrow , and that the capture will be effected on Tuesday morning . Circumstances may render decided action necessary this day or two-morrow . Possibly _sosne movement hss alread y taken plaoe , and Mr Smith O'Brien may _uowbe incustody ; but the intention of the authorities waa that an overwhelming force should be concentrated by tomorrow , in order that tbe rebel movement should be effectually crushed on Taesday morning .
Troops are constantly arriving in Dublin , and departing for the South . A . TBMPIKD _ABEIST OF SMITH O ' BRIEN . ( From Freeman ' s Journal July 31 . ) "We have received the following special report from our correspondent in Kilkenny : — Early on Saturday morning _snb-inspeotcr Trantofthe Callan station , county Kilkenny , with between fort _j and fifty mea under Ms command _.
Dublin, July 26th.—Four Companuh Of Thc ...
proceeded to the neighbourhood of _Ballingarry , on the borders of the county of Tipperay , and twelve miles from the oity of Kilkenny , to assist in arrest ing Mr Smith O'Brien , who waa reported to be in tbe mountains of that locality , surrounded by a large body of armed peasantry . Some time afterwards a mounted police constable , named Carroll , was sent from the Maudlin-street station , Kilkenny , with a dispatch for _BUb-ioBpector Trant , but on arriving at a part of the county
between Ballingarry , and a plaoe called Comenons , he heard several shots fired , and waa soon afterwardB taken prisoner by some armed country people , several of whom wera for shooting him , saying as I am informed , * If thia man gets back , he will hang us aU- ' The others , however , declared they would not take Carroll ' s life . The constable was in coloured olothes . He waB taken into tbe presence of Mr Smith O'Brien , who , it appears , wore a cap with a peak and _. ilver band , and carried a stick in bihand .
Mr O'Brien , addressing Carroll , formally , 'Yon are ene of the mounted police . ' The constable at once aaid he was , being aware that he was known to persons in tfee neighbourhood . Mr O'Brien then turned round , and asked the peop ie whether he Bhould give himself up , but they advised him not to take ruch a stop , upon whieh be walked about for some time , and then , mounting the cor stable ' s horse , rode away , _Carrell was detained in the custody of four men . During tbis time sub-inspector Trant and his men were shut up in a house to wbich they had retreated , surrounded by the country people , upon whom they firtd from the windows .
After the lapse of two or three hours Carroll waa left in the charge of one man , who allowed him to take his departure . On bis road back Carroll encountered Mr Smith O'Brien , who had changed his dress , and now wore a bat . Mr O'Brien , who was en horseback , stopped the constable , but the latter remonstrated with him , and told bim it was foolish to tbink of holding out against the force that would be brought against him , especially as the priests were exhorting the people not to join in resisting the authorities . Mr O'Brien appeared to think deeply en what Carroll said , and observed , tbat for twenty years he had been endeavouring to serve his country , but that if the people did not stand by him , he might as well give up the attempt . He shortly afterwards gave Carroll his stick , and rode off .
On tbe constable ' s return to Kilkenny , orders were givea to the military to mareh to Mr Trant's assistance _, and at half-past eight o ' olock the city was tbrownl . into a dreadful state of excitement by the marching of a moat formidable military force towards Ballingarry . Amongthe body _wasthe troop of 4 th Dragoons . These were followed by a large body of police , and then oame 400 infantry , headed by the resident magistrate , Joseph Greeu , Esq . The rear was brought up by another body of police , making in all about 160 constables , and between 300 and 400 „ aoldiera . A guard ofthe 83 rdregiment kept watch on the Tholse ) , and a large number of police were under arms in the Assembly-rooms , it being generally expected that Smith O'Brien would be brought in a prisoner daring the night . 0 _ - _* l-C- WITH THB P 80 PLB AND THB MILIIART .
BEV 2 RAL SHOT . Shortly after the departure of the military and policei the news of the _. _afa retreat of Mr Tract and his party was conveyed to Kilkenny , and the cavalry an 1 police were dispatched to recall the soldiers , who were on their way out , and they returned at an early hour this morning . Mr Trant and bis party got off safe , but several of the people were killed and wounded . Mr Dillon is thought to be among the latter . There were about 300 armed men around Smith O'Brien at tbe time Carroll was taken . Several Catholio clergymen were seen in vain exhorting the poople to retire , whilst shots were whizzing around them . The last acoounts from Ballingarry state that the military were concentrating on th & t point irom all the surrounding districts .
" _¦ UHTHfitt _PAHTIOOLAHS . Ltvebpool , Monday Night . —To-night ' s Dublin Bail confirms the accounts of a collision having taken place , which was telegraphed tbis morning . It appears that ten of the rebels were killed and forty wounded ; Dillon is thought to be dangerously si .
( From tha Times . ) WlLtMONT , NEAR BALLINGARRY , COUHTT OF TlP perart , Satubdat Nioht . —This morning at three o ' olock intelligence waa received at Kilkenny tbat O'Brien , Meagher , Doheny , O'Reilly , and Dillon bad been proclaimed traitors : that rewards had been offered of £ 500 for the apprehension of O'Brien , and of £ 300 for that of each of his fonr confederates . Notices to this effect were posted up not only in Kilkenny , but all over the country , policemen having been despatched on ears in every direction for that purpose . Soarcely had tbe announcement been made at Kilkenny , when Mr Blake , the County Inspector of Constabulary , resolved to undertake tbe important duty whioh the Lord-Lieutenant's proclamation
pointed out . Having matured his plans , with the most praiseworthy despatch he started from Kilkenny shortly after daybreak , and reaching Harleypark , ascertained there on undoubted authority that Smith O'Brien nnd the other proclaimed traitors had passed the night among the collitra ( or' Black _Boya' ) of Boulagh-common within a mile of _Balliogarryi This important point having been settled , Mr Blake sent a messenger to Callan , where tbe constabulary of the surrounding district had been concentrated eome days previously . These , to the number of fifty or _eixty men , under the command of chief-constable Trant , he directed to maroh on tbe common of Boulagh , a distance of ten Irish miles . Mr Blake also despatched a messenger to Mr Greene , the
resident magistrate of Kilkenny , requesting him to get a strong military force moved at onoe from the barracks there to the same point . Proceeding to Ballyphilip , tbe residence of Mr Going , be there received further information as to tbe whereabouts of Mr Smith O'Brien and bis rebel crew . Acting upon this , he proceeded at onoe to Thurles , and havi g secured military reinforcements of the most complete and overwhelming kind from that place , and , by the aid of messengers , from Fethard , Clonmel , Templemore , and Cashel , he had these all eoncentrated on the spot whioh had bsen pointed out to him as the head __ quarters of the rebel army . While all these preparations were in _progress the small bnt courageous band of policemen from
Callan had already penetrated to the very centre of disaffection , and had in effect suppressed the insurrection . The police on arriving at the common of Boulagh found Smith O'Brien and his associates in trea __ n stationed tbere with an overwhelming force , ready to give them battle . The bell of the nearest Roman Catholic Chapel had been rung as soon as they were seen approaching , and crowds of persons were momentarily flocking to the ranks of the insurgents . Finding himself in danger of being surrounded and cut off , chief constable Trant threw his men into a substantial slated house _whishstandson an eminence close to tbe common . Hera they were speedily as sailed by the armed mob without and by their leaders . Mr Smith O'Brien went up to the window with a
brace of pistols in his bands , and called on them to surrender their arms , promising them that if they complied their persons would be safe . The time was now come ior action , but tbe police did not use their mu _okets till several shots had been fired at them , and atones thrown in on them through the window . One account says they fired a volley , another that they fired enly three shots . Certain , however , it is that two of them , one of them , I believe , named _M-Bride , were killed dead on tbe spot , and tbat a third exp ired _ettor _. ly _^ after . Ik is also currently reported that onoof Smith O'Brien ' s friends ( some say Dillon ) was wounded in the knee . The effect of this determined conduot was tbat the crowd _retreated , and although Smith O'Brien _uried them over and
over again te go and pull down the house , they would not attempt it . The Roman Catholic clergyman of the district , it is eaid , arrived at thi . time on tbe scene of strife , and implored the people to abstain from violence . Smith O'Brien and his friends t _ n appear to bave cot disgusted . _Deolaring tbat as the people _would not stand by him , he would not stand by them , _hefi-d across the country , upon the chief _conntable ' t horse , and , rumour says , in the direction of Urlingford . By this time a reinforcement of oon 8 Ubilar * y __ iad arrived from Cashel , and soon after strong bodies of the regular troops , cavalry , artillery , and infantry , oame pouring in from every quarter . By the time they had arrived the utmost tranquillity prevailed .
No outrages on propert y , at least none of a very serious character , have been committed by the insurgents . They have several times taken temporary possession of horses for their own use . They have also made a descent on some of the potato fields , but tbese are all the charges I have heard against them on that score . Ballin _8 ARRY , Sunday , 3 p . m . —The scene of rebellion . warms with troopa from every quarter . The _dlaturbanoes are completely Buppr . _asfld . General Macdonald is here in command . Two of the insurgents are mortally wounded , and are dying now , and there are a great many hurt , There is no news here of Smith O'Brien and his companions .
It is eaid they fled to _Johnsto wn * , the cavalry and police are in pursuit of them . _Anether report , in which I p ' _aoesome reliance , states that O'Brien was fired at yesterday within a distance of ten yards by two policemen , and tbat he fell wound ed ; if 80 , it is likely he and the others are not far off .

According to the Tarns correspondent the Clergy of the district have exerted themselves to put a stop to the insurrectionary movement . He names the Rev . Mr Corcoran , the Rev . Mr Mahor , and the Rev . Mr _Fitzgerald , as taking a prominent part in persuading the people to lay down their arms , lie adds that the celebrated Fathe r Laffan also told his * exbiteable' pari . _hionera at mass tbat if they joined in the rebellion he would cu rse them from the altar by bell , book , and candle . Father _O'Sbaoghnes _. y , pariah priest of Drangan , made a similar announcement , , , _. ... Several arrests have been made of persons lmplioated in the fight yesterday , or who have been heard using seditious language .
The small parties of police actually engaged with the insurgents appear to have done _bleody exeention among them , Out of eleven who are known to have been killed on the spot , or very severely wounded , Bix are already dead , and the rest are not expected to survive . Many more , I hear , are hurt , and it is imposastble to ascertain _exaotly the extent of the loss , as tbe insurgents , who were principally collier ]* out of work , withdrew their comrades when they fell , and concealed the bodies of their dead . Smith O * Brien , I hear , gave a sovereign to a woman whose husband was shot dead before , he left the scene of action . The penons engaged in the outbreak yesterday will be brought to justice summarily , and every possible means will bs used to vindicate tbe supremacy ofthe law in this _lawless district .
