IRELAND.

DrßLtx, JOLT 4:

A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Mr.
Martin, the proprietor of the Felon newspaper, on a
charge of felony under the new act. A number of po-
licemen went to the office to-day to inquire after theob-
bject of their search, but he was not to be found. Mr.
Martin lies perdu until the present commission is over.
The informations against him were not sworn before
any of the divisional magistrates of police, and it is sup-
posed that it is a judge's warrant that has been issued
for his apprehension. It is confidently stated that
proceedings are being taken against other parties
connected with the Dublin repeal journals ; but great
secrecy is preserved, and nothing is allowed to trans-
pire which might tend to balk the ends of justice.
There is a very manifest reaction amongst the re-
peaters, in consequence of the frightful events in
France. The Cork Examiner, which has been one
of the most ecergetic organs of the movement party,
now indignantly repudiates any idea of the " physical
force" exhibited during the Paris insurrection, and
holds out the example of France as a warning to Ire-
land. "We are," says that journal, " sorely shocked,
and also somewhat afraid, of this republicanism which
the French would teach us. What if it should bear.
the same fruit in this country ? This must give us
pause. We want no bloody addition to tte anarchies
of Ireland. We think s. republican freedom like
that of Paris during the last week, worse than ten
English ministries. What does it profit a people if
they gain the whole freedom of Utopia, and murder
each other before three months in the barricaded
streets ?"

The trials of the persons chtrged with violating the
Drilling and Training Act have been proceeded with
to-day. The jury came oat three times to take the
judge's opinion as to the intent. It was supposed
that they would have finally disagreed, but the re-
sult has been very different. At half-put four they
found a verdict of " Guilty," and the sentence was,
Gogarty, the chief, to be transported for seven years;
English to be imprisoned for two years, and the
others for twelve month& The wading of their
friends was pitiable. All the prisoners were strongly
recommended to mercy.
Among the members at the opening of the Cashel
Railway, the papers set down Mr. J. O'Connell. Tne
member for Limerick contradicts the statement in a
letter to the Ilveman. Had he been present, he
would not have suffered certain statements and sen-
timents to have passed without comment.
The landowners in the barony of llnleek, county
Meath, have come a second time to the relief of the
unemployed able-bodied labourers in their district.
A list has been m►de out, and for every 20 acres of
land, one labourer shall be employed for a month, or
until the harvest, an arrangement which will absorb
the entire class of the unemployed. The landowners
acted with similar spirit and sagacity on the com-
mencement of the famine in 1846.

The Irish constabulary will for the future consist of
10,678 effective men, and will be officered by 35
county and 262 sub-inspectors of three classes, and
375 head oonatables of two classes.

The Orangemen marched in great numbers on
Saturday. At Armagh, Market-Hill, Enniskillen,
Waringetown, and various other place', the " anni-
versary" was celebrated with more than ordinary
Mat. In Enniskillen the Roman catholice gathered
their forces, but did not march. The stipendiary of
the district interfered, and they separated quietly.
