IRELAND

Drums, Dac. 17.
The news of the defeat and consequent resigns-
hoe of the l)erbyite ministry was received in Dublin
at 20 minutes to 2 o'clock this afternoon, and pro-
diced a sensation almost amounting to an outburst
of public rejoicing. I never witnessed more sada-
hum at any announcement of the kind. The notion
el the Irish populiwitv of the late cabinet was all a
sham. The most ardent of the Irish party well kanwl
that they have more to expect in the long run fres
these who are, on principle, the friends of liberty,
than from its avowed enemies • and it was quillel
impossible there could be any cordial good feeling
&song the liberal party in this country towards any
government with Lord Derby at its head. The
news, as I have said, did not reach us until shortly
before two o'clock, the arrival of the packet having
been diliied by the boisterous weather in the
chancel , but the moment the telegraphic despatches;
'Lich conta.ned the wished-for Intelligence were
cried the news flew forth with a speed which
'walled that of electricity itself, and in a few
moments it was known in every earner of the city.
While I write the news-rooms are besieged with
crowds anxious to learn the particulars, and all
whom I have heard express any opinion on the sub-
left rejoice to hear that the reign of the " Derby
etifhas been so brig.
