IRELAND.

DUBLIN, TZUIIII/11T NIGHT.
The Premier visited today the most important o
oar public establishments, and that in which
tad pride kg Ala and
loeAuLttilintr the future the National
Board of Education and the model school.. This is the
only institution we have entirely managed by Irish-
men, and the satisfactory mode of its working—the
steadiness with which it augments in public favor, and
the continued extension of itsoperstion over the country
form a not 'pleasing subject of gratulatory contem-
plation to Irishmen. Nor can it be retarded with
other than the deepest interest by every eatisen of this
empire.
Mr. John O'Connell has addressed a letter to the
people of Ireland. He pronounces repeal to be
proved of greater neoessiW every day. Ile deprecates
the idea that agitation should cease, but intimates
that it the men who have foolishly critninated
themselves—criminality into which, he contends, the
continued misrule of England hurried them—if they
be treated with mercy, he thinks the people would
per'tsps give up all agitation for awhile. The pith
and object of hie letter is, however, very near, if not
in a postcript ; towards the close, he announces that if
contributions towards the maintenance of Conciliation
Hall are not forthcoming within a month, the hall,
the Corn Exohanbe rooms, the meeting-place of the
old Catholic Association, and subsequently of the
Repeal Association, and several others, must be sold.
I venture to predict that Mr. O'Connell's appeal will
not meet any adequate response.
A, cortnepondent, writing from Clonmel, states
that a communication bad just reached him, inti-
mating that the special commission for the trial of
Mr. Smith O'Brien and the other prisoners charged
with high treason, which wee to be opened in that
town on the 18th inst., is postponed to the 21st or
220 d inst., when a grand jury, summoned from both
ridings of the county of Tipperary, is to be sworn in.
It is reported that amongst others for whose ap-
prehension warrants have been kneed, but who have
hitherto escaped the vigilance of the polio., is Dr.
Antisell, a well-known lecturer in Dublin. Dr.
Antisell is understood to have been a regular con-
tributor to the Irish Trilnins.

FATAL 'TERMINATION or AN ELOPEMENT.—An

plea of urgent private business to settle in the *many;
and a few days after his departure, Mrs. Water,
the schoolmistress, also obtained keys fa a short
absence, alleging that ohs had been sent for by hte mother,
who was danger:noir ill in Devonaldre. It L'ippened rather
singularly, however, that soon afterwards her mother arrived,
in peed health, in London, for the purpose of visiting her,
and was astonished to hear of her ahem under each cir-
cumstances. This led to inquiry, which resulted to the dip.

workhouse schoolmaster, bad no opportunity of observing
any of these movement, baize a If iIiONT in the House of
Correction, for indecently exposing himself to several rupee
table fsales, resident ta the neighbourhood of the work-
house. When be was under examination before the magis-
trate, he received an excellent character for morality and
general good conduct from the master of the workhouse,
Mr. Bacon, who thus, during the husband's incarceration,
made off with his wife. The latter, aet nteel and remark-
ably good-looking woman, took with her her youngest child,
leaving the rest to her husband or to the pariah. The
respective relatives nave ascertained beyead doubt that the
fugitive pair, inroad of proosediag to Devonshire, as they
had pretended, embarked as above mentioned, on board the
Dana Monarch, and, together with the women's child,
perished, when that chip was destroyed by fire. Mr. Beton
is known to have had some previous knowledge of America.
He was formerly a policuolliter, and a few years back was
sent to America in pursuit of a veeterelerk, who had ab-
sconded with a very lure amount of punts money, and
he succeeded in resoveving some portion of the property.
