THE FENIAN CONEPIRACY4

THE rumour that a Fenian cruiser has made its
appearanoe off the Irish coast ix revived by the Dublin
newspapers. The story goes that • suspicions-looking
craft was descried off Queenstown harbour on dandily ;
and when the authorities wanted to take a elese obese.
vation of the stranger she made off. A doubtful tale.

As the Liverpool steam-tug Eihoher wee cruising off
Dunmore Bay, a few &yaw, she was boarded by some
,4 the Irish police under the impression that ske had
some Fenian stores on board. Next day a communica-
tion having been received from the owners in Liverpod
as to her true character, sbe was released.

AN "Irish Peer" writes to the Tina in support of
the views recently expressed by that paper, that it
would tend to the pow and prosperity of Ireland were
the office of the Viceroyalty—which he sells "the halt
vestige of Ireland's degrading vassidage"—aboliabed, and
if the Prince of Wales could be induced to °ore* over to
Brio every year for a few weeks' bunting. The PriDSO
would coneiliate Irishmen at one.; and " Fenianian
and its miserable brood would sink into utter oblivion
and contempt." "Let us only get rid," he concludes,
"of our sham Bing. induce our Prinoe to live a

The editor and the registered proprietor of Mtn
Connaught Patriot have both been arrested. On Friday,
at mid-day, Mr. Martin Andrew O'Brennan, the
t,ered proprietor, we brought before Mr. Strong.. After
some delay, Mr. Curran appeared for the prisoner.—
Mr. Barry, on the part of the Crown, read a leading
article and other comments in defense of Fenian's=
which had appeared in the Connaught Patriot, sod
demanded that the prisoner should be committed for
trial under the Treason Felony Act—Mr. Strong. said
he had no discretien in the matter-Mr. O'Brennsa
was accordingly committed, protesting that In no country
in the world would such an aggression be made on the
liberty of the subject an that perpetrated on him. The
prisoner was removed in custody.

CORN MARKETS.
MAHIC-LANE, Friday. There was only a limited
supply of Engliah wheat on sale here to-day, in but
middling condition ; the demand, however, for both red
and white parcels was in & sluggish state, at about
Monday's prices. We were tolerably well, but not to
say heavily, supplied with foreign wheat; even the
finest samples were neglected; nevertheless last week's
quotations were mostly supported. Floating cargoes of
grain were much leas actles than lad week. Molders,
however, declined to pre= sales at reduced rates,

Thursday.—Dwing the present week
little has been passing in the trade, but all descriptions
of corn are firmly held for quite as much money. At
this day's market there was a fair supply of English
wheat—on new the turn in prise was in favour of the
miler; on old of the buyer, but we make no alteration
in our quotations; very little doing in foreign. Barley
tending downwards. Oats firm. Beans, Is. per qr.
ower. Peas unaltered.

Mummy Thursday.—There was a much better supply
of Eng!huh wheat on our market today. for whioh
farmera asked is. to 28. per qr. Inure money, and a fair
clearance was made at quite is. advance. Foreign held
firmly for hat week'a prices, but the sale thereat is very
limited. Although the continued hot weather prevents
our maltsters fromsorking, there was a better sale to-
day for malting barley, at fully previous rates. Grind-
ing aorta pressed on the market, and 6d. per qr. cheaper.
Arrivals of Irish oats are kept tv:tt by easterly winds,
but no advance could be realised for those on the spot.
