IRELAND.

DUBLIN, APIIIL 28.
Strenuous efforts are making to give effect to the
meeting of citizens to be held to-day In the City
Hall, to petition against an Irish income tax; but
the demonstration is not expected, nevertheless, to
be a very imposing one. The bulk of the people
clearly feel no interest in the matter, and the middle
classes, were even all of those who come under that

denomination agreed upon the subject, which is very
far from being the case, would find it difficult to get
up an agitation of their own, under such circum-
stances.

Yesterday was the second day of the Great Mun-
ster Fair at Limerick. There was a large supply of
first class horses exhibited on the occasion, but the
prices demanded were so high, that buyers acted
with proportionate caution, and a great number of
the cattle remained unsold, those which changed
hands being principally for the English markets. A
great number of pigs were sold at high prices. The
returns of the sales were as follows :—Horned cattle,
sold, 2,956 ; ditto, unsold, 1,145; total, 4,101. Sheep,
sold, 655; ditto, unsold, 865; total 1,520.
A considerable rise has taken place in the price of
wool in the Irish markets, owing to the shortness of
the supplies now received from Australia.
The Law Life Assurance Company are selling the
great Ballinahinch estate in small lots to suit the
convenience of purchasers.
From the returns just made up in the Incumbered
Estates Court it appears that the following is the
number of titled persons, and members or ex-members
of parliament, whose estates are, or have been, in
that court :-2 marquises (one merely for the ex-
change of lands), 17 earls, 4 viscounts, 1 lord (by
courtesy), 6 barons, 6 honourable., 1 right honour-
able, 26 baronets, 5 knights, 2 counts, 1 baroness,
10 members of parliament, 9 ex-members of parlia-
ment.

Another salt mine has been discovered in Ulster.
It is situated near Red Hall, the residence of 1). S.
Ker, Esq., M.P., in the county of Antrim.
Tke Roman catholic clergy of Middleton, in the
county of Cork, have published resolutions, calling
on their county representatives to adhere to the
principles upon which the Irish party in the House
of Commons was formed.
The Marquis of Anglesea has made a remission of
20 per cent. of their rents to the tenantry on his
Irish estates. The noble marquis has exercised a
similar generosity towards them for the last seven
years.
