THE FENIAN INSURRECTION. (From the Times' Special Correspondent.) LIMERICK JUNCTION, Wednesday Night., I suppose that outside the steppes of Tartary and the Polar regions it would be hard to find any colder bit of table land than this Limerick Junction Sta tion. Just now the scene,is wintry indeed. The snow, is_lying thick 'on the gt:ound, a keen north-, east wind sweeps the platform, and in the distance the mountains are frosted over, so that it is not easy to tell where cloud begins and mountain summit ends. The people themselves say that the sky fights against the Fenians. " That is the best flying column," said my carman to-day, pointing to the snow-scud on the hill -side. " Those poor people must be dead with cold and hunger ; in such wea ther no one could live upon the mountains." This . is the popular opinion, often repeated by those one meets. Even the soldiers, though well-fed and tolerably well-housed, suffer a good deal when on patrol duty ; and the sentries who pace the platform of the station night and day must have a terribly cold billet. Here and in the neighbouring garrison of Tipperary the men are of necessity huddled to gether with very little sleeping room, and for many nights together never take their clothes off. The goods' station here, open to all the winds that blow, is so occupied. In mild weather it would make not unpleasant quarters, but men and horses now must find the cold hard to bear. In Tipperary the mar ket-house, national school, and poorhouse afford more comfortable lodgings ; but all the conveniences of barrack life are of course absent. Still the men are cheerful, and submit to these small privations with great good temper. A grumbler is a great nui as he is anywh ere e l se ; an d i n special mischi e f. A s f ar as I shcaaaninvcepeasieingennaintrhgeegrbiemeisdenovtesery little grumbling among the troops, except at enemies, who keep out of sight and give no end of trouble, " just for nothing at all." A Tipperary, to-day, I met with C ap t a i n C . Massey, a gentleman of Grantstown, f our m il es f rom t this place, who was taken prisoner by the Fenians on the night of the rising. They first called at his residence about midnight and demanded arms. After some demurs, seeing that the men were determined, he gave them an old gun, but contrived to throw it out to them with such force as broke the stock in pieces. They then retired, and Captain Massey thought he was rid of them, but in a short time they returned, and asked whether be had not a blunder buss. They also inquired for one of the stable lads, whom they wanted to impress, and said they must search the house for him. Captain Massey opened the door, but they did not search the house ; they only said he must go with them to their leader. He was accordingly conducted by two men across several ploughed fields a distance of over two miles, until they joined a considerable body of insurgents, who were bivouacking along a hedge-side. There he was kept in close custody for about four hours. His captors were perfectly civil, and fulfilled the pro mise they had made him that he should not be mo lested. They said little, but spoke of their determina tion to have an Irish Republic. The British Govern ment, they declared, was a bad Government, and the people could not stand it any longer. The Fenian leader, who had ordered the prisoner's arrest, did not take any further notice of him; and at the end of the four hours Captain Massey was released un conditionally-. The object of detainingj him wao probably to prevent him from giving any informa tion to the constabulary until the Fenian plans were matured. He fared better than another gentle man I have heard of, the son of a Protestant clergyman. The Fenians called at his father's house and demanded arms. He came to the door and handed out the arms to them ; and with a certain grim humour they said he was a likely young man, and would make a capital Fenian leader. Si they force I him by threats to go on his knees and take the Fenian oath, after which he was made to accompany them to the houses of several of his friends, the gentry in the neiighbourhood, one being the house of his own aunt, and collect the arms from all. If he hesitate! or hung back, half a dozen pike-points were in unpleasant proximity to his body directly. When the houses for miles round had been thus visited, he being the spokesman - and active agent by compulsion at all, the Fenians said he had done.very well that night, and allowed him to go home, telling him that they might, perhaps, require his services again. It does not surprise one to hear that this gentleman has placed a very long distance between himself and the Fenians who played this unpleasant practical joke upon him. ' A copy of the Fenian oath was %Wad Upon Bourke, the man who led the insurgents at Ballyhurst, near Tipperary, and who, being on horseback, came to grief at his firstditch. "In thepresence of Almighty God"—so the oath runs—" I solemnly swear that I will not bear arms against, or by Word or act give information, aid, or comfort to the enemies of the Irish Republic until regularly relieved of this obli gation. So help me God !" The form of oath is not badly conceived, if the object be to procure its wide acceptance. According to its strict grammatical construction, the undertaking exacted is not to bear arms against the enemies of the Irish Republic —a droll way of advancing Fenianism indeed. But even as it would be generally understood, it does not pledge those who take it to anything more than Dr. Johnson thought was meant by subscription to the Thirty-nine Articles. " You are not supposed to assent to every one ; but you undertake not to preach against them." So this oath merely calls for something like neutrality, and probably, therefore, it is not the Fenian oath, but merely one or two ; the other relating to active support, and requiring from the neophyte a promise of obedience when he is called to arms. The. unwillingness of the people to supply information may be accounted for in part by the extent to which the oath above given has been taken. Among other things found upon Bourke—l believe he was called General Bourke— were some photographs of ladies and some doggrel verses, amatory and sentimental, which are bad enough to be original, and, if they refer to the career of the hero of Ballyhurst, are not very cre ditable to him. The Fenian leaders were prompt in punishing any breach of discipline or insubordination on the part of their dupes. One instance which occurred near Tipperary was told me to-day. A farmer's son; who says he was impressed. by the insurgents, was out with them all Tuesday night. In the morning, feeling vary hungry as well as very tired, he said he would go home to breakfast. As no military code, not even the Fenian one, can recognise the right of an army in the field to go every man his own way to meals, the Fenian leader objected to this proposal. However; the young recruit was unused to the rigid discipline by 'which armies are kept together, and being very hungry he was very wilful, and as he weighed the assumed delights of the morning rasher and hot tea - against the remote prospect of his ha'- porth of bread and water from the brook, he stepped boldly out in . the direction of home. The Irish- American leader of the Fenian Land Went after him, and with an oath gave him his breakfast in the shape of a bullet through the thigh. The man is now under the care of a surgeon, and on Sunday Mr. Massey, a magistrate of ICI ngs will, near Tippe rary, went over to take his deposition. One would suppose that anybody who had been so treated would be anxious to bring to justice the fellow who had maimed him. But the farmer's son would not say a word by which either the leader or any of theparty could be identified. It is suspected that there have been several other victims of this brutality ; but of course no information can be gained upon this point, except in cases like this where surgical aid is called for, - and the truth thereby appears. As I write (midnight) the snow is falling heavily, and the snow drifts on the part of the line make it probable that the railway traffic will be seriously retarded. No day passes without its special trains for the conveyance of troops or commissariat stores front one point to the other, so that any interruption of the traffic will be exceedingly inconvenient to the military. Mr. Tighe, the stationmaster here, is set ting men to work to clear away the snow from the most exposed points, but the wind drifts it on to the line at hundreds of others. DUBLIN, March 14. The case of Mr. Crofton, the young gentleman "ebarged with having a pistol, some bullets, and a skeleton key within the precincts of Portobello Bar racks on Sunday night, came again before Mr. M'Dermott yesterday. His father deposed that the prisoner bad a license to carry a pistol, and the key was the key of the rear entrance to his father's house. With respect to the bullets, they had been cast by his father during the past week, and Mr. Crofton, finding them in a vase in an exposed posi tion, and fearing they might be stolen, put them into his pocket for safety. The Rev. G. De Butts gave the accused and his family a high character for re spectability and royalty. Mr. Bradbourne, a gentle man in the employment of Mr. Guinness, M.P., de posed that Mr. Crofton was engaged in the brewery, that he was a most respectable young man, and that he had recently signed an address of loyalty denounc ing the Fenian conspiracy. Mr. M'Dermoit said that, having fully investigated the case, he would dismiss the charge, and observed that Mr. Crofton left the court without the slightest stain upon his character. The same magistrate sent for trial to the Commis sion Michael Walsh, who was brought before him on remand. He was arrested by Constable Berne on the morning of March 6, between Clouskeagh and Dublin, having in his possession a six-chamber re volver, a powder flask, and some balls. Among the false rumours in circulation yesterday was one to the effect that there had been disturb ances in the town of Arklow. On inquiry by tele graph the place was found to be perfectly quiet. Similar gratifying reports have come into town from all the railway lines. It is stated that the 'Government have given directions for four gunboats to be instantly de spatched to Dublin, and to be stationed in the liver Liffey for the protection of the city. . . It is also stated that it is in contemplation to order the closing of all public-houses in the city and suburbs from 6 o'clock on Saturday evening next until Monday morning. The 89th Regiment arrived. at the North-wall to-day from Portsmouth to reinforce the Dublin garrison, in consequence of the demands which have been made upon it for troops to supply the flying columns at present going through the country. Yesterday a large number of prisoners confined on remand in Kilmainham Gaol were fully com mitted for trial by Dr. Carte, military magistrate, on information being tendered by the military and police of their presence at the Tallaght affair. It is stated that the Special Commissions will be directed to all the judges. There will be four com missions sitting contemporaneously—for Dublin, Cork, Tipperary, and Limerick—two judges in each court. The Lord Mayor is always included in the Dublin Commission, and he attends the opening, but takes no further part in the proceedings. The Cork Examiner says :—" The special commission is spoken of as likely to open in Cork so soon as the Ist of April. It is said the judges who will preside there will be Chief Baron Pigott and Chief Justice Whiteside." A large quantity of barraok stores, cousistipg of Naval and Military Intelligence. VALETTA, March 10.—Her Majesty's iron screw transport Megmra, Capt. J. Simpson, arrived on the 4th inst., after a fine passage of 12 days from Plymouth and Gibraltar, having on board supernu meraries for the fleet, among whom was Lieut. C. R. Drew, surveying-officer of her Majesty's ship Hydra, returning from leave. The Megmra will take back to England naval and military invalids and time expired men. She is expected to leave about the 24th inst. The Tyrian gunboat, Lieut.-Commander the Hon. V. Montagu, and the Cockatrice gunboat, Com mander Bogle, left port on the sth inst., the former for Patras, to relieve the Enterprise, 4, Commander Bosanquet, which will bring back to Malta the Bishop of Gibraltar calling at Zante and Cephalo nia, to enable his lordship to visit the English families residing in those islands. The Tfrian will afterwards proceed to Candia to take the place of the Wizard, gunboat, Lieut.-Commander P. J. Murray, on being relieved by the Racer, 11, Comr. L. Brine, which arrived at Malta on the sth inst. from Alexandria and Suda Bay. The Cockatrice has orders to resume her station on the Danube, communicating on her way with the Pirreus and Constantinople. The Turkish steam transport Kars, from Constantinople and the Dardanelles, having on board 841 soldiers for the garrison of Tripoli, put in here on the 4th inst., having, although only at sea foutdays, run short of water, for which, on entering the port, biscuits were gladly bartered by the troops over the side of the vessel. No time was lost in sending her a tank of water, and she pro ceeded on the following day to Tripoli. The Egyptian steam yacht Mahrusa, Capt. Gemelly Bey, arrived on the 6th inst. from Alexandria, to make use of our naval dock for cleaning purposes. The French steam frigate Eldorado, with 800 troops and 61 horses on board from Toulon and Algiers for Cochin China, which left our port for Alexandria on the 2d inst., after replenishing fuel, bore up on the sth inst., having, as it is reported, run short of provi sions and water. It is said there are 25 horses of pure Arab breed on board this vessel, which arel being sent as a present from the Emperor of France to the Emperor of Japan. The Uawk, screw steamer, belonging to the Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company, left Malta On the 4th inst., for Messina, to overhaul tie telegraphic cables between Sicily and Calabria, which have lately been out of working order. The appearance of cholera at Jersey has induced the Malta Government to impose a quarantine of 15 days on arrivals thence, and from the other Channel Islands. It has at the same time increased the period of quaran tine from seven to 15 days on arrivals from Girgenti, in Sicily, and its vicinity, where cases of cholera continue to occur of a very type. Arrivals with clean bills of health from other parts of Italy and from the Calabrias are admitted to pratique. Among the passengers by the Pera from Alexandria for Gibraltar and South ampton was the Count d'Alengon, who is returning to Europe from a tour in India. Rear-Admiral Hall, one of the directors of the Peninsular and Oriental Company, arrived here by the Ripon from Southampton on theBth inst., en a rcnlte to Alexandria. For some time past it has been rumoured that the squadron would be suddenly ordered away on a cruise. It is now said it will be put to sea to-mor row—the Victoria, the Prince Consort, the Ocean, the Royal Oak, and the Arethusa—under the com mand of Lord Clarence Paget, and, after a day's target practice at the Tilfla Rock, on the south coast of Malta, proceed to Favignana, and the coast of Sicily. Arrangements have, I understand, been made to keep up communication with-the Admiralty through the Consulate, so that in case affairs in the East, or elsewhere, require the presence of any of the ships at any particular quarter they will be al ways at hand. The English screw steamer Jarrow, which arrived from Port Said and Candia on the sth, brings news to the 2d inst. The insurrection is by no means quelled, and every effort is being made to keep it alive, not only by the Greek com mittee, but by agents of other foreign Powers. An English steamer, called the Dream, 460 tons, had hoisted Greek colours, and been taken charge of by a•Greek owner at Syra. She is fitted with two guns, and it is no secret that she is intended to assist the Panhellion in running the blockade. Two shots were fired at the Jarrow by a Turkish frigate, which mistook her for a blockade runner." A telegram received at the office of Admiral Sir Thomas S. Pasley, the Port Admiral and Naval Commander-in-Chief at Portsmouth, from the Admiralty yesterday afternoon, directed that the whole of the available seagoing vessels in com mission in the port should complete their prepara tions for sea, and be held ready to proceed to Ireland at an early hour this morning. The Hector frigate, returning stores alongside the dockyard, preparatory to being paid out of commission, im mediately on the receipt of the telegram com menced re-shipping her stores and bending her sails and would be ready to again leave Portsmouth harbour by high water today (Friday), en route for Queenstown. The Bellerophon frigate had but to take her powder and shell on board and could leave for Queenstown by daylight this morning. The Niobe screw gun vessel, which has been lying at Spithead having a new stanchion fitted, would also, it was expected, sail from Spithead at daylight this morning, and would be folio wed by Two gunboats, manned from the paddle frigate Terrible, and the gunboat Stork, manned from the Excellent. The screw troopship Himalaya is lying at Spithead, in r e adiness to convey the 66th Regt. to the Channel Islands; but at the present moment -she is available nd for conveying two regiments per trip to Irel a nd, and the Bellerophon and Hector can well convey another regiment between them. We would again remark that there are 1,200 Royal llarine Artillery in bar racks at head-quarters if troops are wanted to take charge of any parts of the dbast or of the harbours of Ireland. The Royal Marine Light Infantry also muster strongly at all their divisional head-qu triers. Her Majesty's yachts Victoria and Albert, Osborne, Alberta, and Elfin are all undergoing their usual repairing and embellishment courses for summer service at Portsmouth. The Elfin reived new boilers yesterday from the steam factOry-ed`e partment. The Royal Marine Artillery serving on board her Majesty's ships Bellerophon, Royal Alfred, Rodney, and other seagoing vessels have been armed with the Snider breechloading Enfield rifle. The Dee, paddle steamer, Commander Raymond, is loading at Portsmouth with machinery for the armour-plated frigate Repulse, 12, converting at The 66th Regiment (Berkshire), from Aldershot, will embark on board her Majesty's screw troop ship Himalaya, Capt. Shute B. Piers, from Ports mouth Dockyard on the 18th or 19th inst., for con veyance to the Channel Islands. The Ist, 2d, and sth batteries of the 6th Brigade of Royal Artillery are also under orders to relieve three other batteries of that Brigade now serving in the Channel Islands. They also will embark in the Himalaya, the present orders of that vessel being to carry out the Channel Islands reliefs. Don Enrique and the Spanish Government. MADRID, March 11. A Royal decree depriving Don Enrique Maria de Borbon of the dignity of Infante of Spain and all other honours and titles conferred upon him ap peared to-day. The text of the Ministerial pre amble to the decree is as follows : " Madame,—When everything is threatened and invaded by the fury of social revolution ; when the force and destructive tendency of this revolutionary movement attacks not only the foundations of the throne but those of society ; when the Governments of order resolutely prepare to resist it ; when the threatened classes—threatened because they have something to lose—rally instinctively to strengthen and support to the utmost the principle of authority, weakened in so many ways, and yet the last anchor of salvation for secular society ; when, iu fact, all the revolutionary elements, in formidable concert, adopt as their watchword, and proclaim with all the fury of their instinct, levelling and dethronement— nothing that might happen could cause surprise. One thing, however, appeared to be impossible. It is, that a scion of the royal race, a prince of the blood, disavowing his dynastic origin with incorri gible obduracy time after time, should now by his acts excite the instincts of revolution, and weaken the efforts of the Government of his country, who, faithful to their oath, contend against it. But that which seemed impossible has, to the shame and in dignation of all, come to pass. It is not the first time, madame, that the well-tried loyalty and mon archical instincts of the Spanish people and their attachment to order have had to deplore culpable aberrations similar to that which forms the subject of the present statement, and they still remember the inconceivable acts of 1848. Your Majesty, act ing with your unvarying and inexhaustible munifi cence, chowered honours and benefits upon the Infante Don Enrique. The; republican revolution was then in fierce agitation at the gates of the Pe ninsula. Few were under greater obligations to stay its course than the Infante ; and yet, to the asto nishment of Spain and all Earope, forgetful of him self, forgetting everything, denying his country, his family, and his origin, and even reviling them, he took the lowest post among the inflamed adepts of the republic. With pain, therefore, but with the resolution of duty, the Ministers of that period considered themselves under the necessity of recommending to your Majesty the deprivation of the Infante, and your Majesty had to endure the bitterness of sanctioning this step. The Ministers will not add to the grief oppressing your Majesty's generous heart by recapitulating the mo tives of that determination. Written documents however remained, and even the infants himself, when disabused of his errors, could hardly hear them read without anguish and remorse. These charges have now been increased by a fresh offence. Your Majesty's unfailing bounty, reinstating the Infante, again bestowed upon him honours and favours. The Infante Don Enrique now resides abroad by his own choice. The press of the country in which he resided proffered the most insupportable insults against the highest objects, such as good Spaniards never mention but with enthusiasm and respect. If any Spaniard more than another should have felt indignation at this, and come forward to redress the wrong, it was the prince, the near relative of the royal house, upon whom a thousand favours had been lavished. But the Infante Don Enrique, when i t is not to be supposed that he could have been un aware. of the fact, or of the reply of the . Spanish Ainmsubla t, ss b a a d d or re to cou th rs e e pe to r t i i o le di p c u al bl w ic h p i r c e h ss p . u o b n l ly ish to ad pl t a h c e e gwohniveihets whom he tmealnyenutpoionils.reeiving such hrecord declaration, and pub publish, t without s post ever h b o e n i o n : g r asked was nf countryoo tr at the side of his Queen, but the foreign knowledge gives asylum to the refuge e s Tlle and political explanation from the In fol‘afinlhi Minist e rs, fact,r. i f rn , L s n i u n egd c i at ho did not disavow the commu nication published under his name. To this effect the necessary instructions have been given to your Majesty's ambassador at that court. The Infante has been twice summoned to receive your Majesty's orders, but has left these requests unnoticed. Un der these circumstances the counsellors of the crown firmly resolved that your Majesty's authority shall be respected by all, without exception of persons or classes ; and, considering how greatly such deplor able excesses are aggravated by their inconceivable repetition, feel bound to propose to your Majesty the deprivation of the Infante Don Enrique Maria de Borbon ; and to that effect submit to your Ma jesty's sovereign approbation the following decree.
