IRELAND.
THE SIX•MILE-BRIDGE CONFLICT.
DUBLIN, MONDAY.—On Saturday morning Mr.
Delmege, J. P., surrendered himself to the authori-
ties in the county Clare. As soon as be became
aware that the coroner had issued a warrant for his
arrest on a charge of murder, he sent an intimation
to that functionary that he was prepared to yield
himself up when required. A chief constable of po-
lice, attended by a strong escort of the 34 Dragoons,
executed the warrant. There is a party of the 47th
Regiment stationed in the gaol of Ennis for the pro-
tection of Mr. Delmege and the eight soldiers of the
31st Regiment confined there in pursuance of the
verdict returned at Six-mile-bridge.
An application will be made to-morrow or next
day to Mr. Justice Crampton, in chambers, to dis-
charge Mr. Delmege on The motion will be
grounded on affidavits, in which (it is understood) it
will be sworn that according to the firm belief of the
deponents, the prisoner is in no way answerable for
the unhappy affray, for the firing of the soldiers or
the death of the rioters. Notice of the application
will be given to the law advisers of the friends of the
deceased.

A similar motion will be made on behalf of the
soldiers, and there is little doubt but the Learned
Judge will grant both.

DONNYBROOK FAIR.

This once notoriously celebrated annual saturnalia
is clearly dying out. The following description of
the opening day is given in Saunders this morning :
" Yesterday being what is called The Walking Sun•
day' of Donnybrook Fair, 'The Green' was visited by
a good many of our citizlna, and a huge swarm of the
' gamins' of the metropolis; but there was an evident
lack of the interest which used to prevail in ' the olden
time.' The roofless tents and the penny shows were few
in point of number, and of a character the reverse cf
prepossessing. They presented 6 a beggarly account of
empty boxes,' and so far, therefore, as these are con-
cerned, the fair promises to be poor indeed.' Be the
cause what it may, be it the influence of the temperance
movement.' rind the improved murals resulting there-
from, or be it the stringent regulations of the police for
the preservation of sobriety and order, it is plain that
the Donnybrook of the past arid that of the present time
are as far asunder us the poles." Tempera nuaantur,
et nos mutarnur in illis,' seems to be an adage likely to be
realised this year at Donnybrook."

KEEPING UP THE STEAM.

The " Lord Bishop" of Killalw.‘ (Pr. Vaughan)
has hit upon an ingenious device to keep alive the
smouldering embers of popular excitement against
the Queen's troops by causing a solemn high mass to
be celebrated for the repose of the souls of the ill-
fated men who lost their lives in the riots at Six-mile-
bridge. The ceremony is thus briefly described in
the Limerick Examiner :

" Thursday last being the day named by the vene-
rated Bishop of the diocese of Killaloe for the celebra-
tion of an office and high mass for the repose of the
souls of the deceased victims of landlord oppression and
military violence, Six-mile-bridge was the theatre of
solemn proceedings. There was a large body of the
Catholic clergy in attendance. Many lay gentlemen
took part in the proceedings,:and the friends of the de-
ceased gave vent to the pent-up fOelings which the cir-
cumstances under which their relatives fell had neces-
sarily excited. The congregation we have heard est-
mated at 4,000, many of whom came from distant parts
of Clare, Limerick, and Tipperary."
No less than thirty priests were present to give
éclat to this studied piece of fanaticism, and among
the group were to be found the now historic names
of Fathers Burke and Clune. The Examiner further
states that—

" After the religious ceremonies were concluded, a
meeting was held in the sacristy of the Catholic church
to make arrangements for promoting a subscription for
the families of the deceased at the bridge. Mr. 1). J.
Wilson, who has so humanely exerted himself to aid the
bereaved families of the deceased, was called to the
chair. The whole of the clergymen who had attended
the ceremony were prct:ent, and cich and all, with una-
nimous accord, pledged themL=elves to aid the benevo-
lent object for which they were congregated. The Rev.
Mr. Mahoney, on the part of the Bishop, Dr. Vaughan,
handed in his Lordship's contribution of .51„ and the
Rev. Gentlempin stated that the venerable prelate would
promote the collection by every means in his power. It
was suggested that the Bishop of Limerick should be
also called upon to pray his Lordship's co-operation.
Mr. D. J. Wilson, and tho Rev. Messrs. Quaid and
Chine, wore named a deputation for that purpose. Ap-
plication, it was also stated, would be made to the Very
Reverend Dr. Sheahan, V. C., Kilmacdusgh, and
Dean Kenny promised, on his behalf, that he would
support their endeavours. Collectors' books wero also
distributed in which to record subscriptions in every
district. Mr. M. Talbot is treasurer for Ennis; and it
was announced that Dr. M'llale and other prelates
would subscribe."

With respect to ulterior proceedings as regards the
military, the Examiner supplies the following infor-
mation :

' First, then, it is said that Mr. Keogh, Q.C., and
M.P., will be retained specially to conduct the prosecu-
tion at the ensuing assizes. The whole of the prisoners
may be admitted to bail before trial. This can be done
by application to one of the justices of the Queen's
Bench, who out of term sits from week to week in cham-
ber to hear applications of this nature. The judge will
fix the amount of bail, which is measured by the circum-
stances of the party and the nature of the crime. The
Crown may at the assizes assume the direction of the
prosecution, with or without the consent of tho friends of
the deceas4d. But the latter have a right to employ in
aid of the Crown both counsel and attorney, who will
have, of course, the right to take part in the prosecu-
tion, so that justice may be done. In this case, where
no appeal is made to the Crown for funds, it would seem
that the Crown ought not to interfere with the proceed-
ings in the future stages. At the assizes, bills, founded
upon the depositions, will probably be sent before
the grand jury. It is very confidently stated
that that body will throw out those bills; and, in-
deed, this anticipated rejection is made a boast of.
We have more reliance upon the respect of Clare grand
jurors for their solemn obligation. But, should they do
so, the parties charged would, nevertheless, be put upon
their trial; for although it is customary in cases where
coroners' inquisitions are held and verdicts returned at
them to send bills before grand jurors, still if the bills
are rejected the accused may be indicted upon the find-
ing of the coroner's jury. Thus, in any case, there must
be a trial at the assizes."

The Freeman- or this morning furnishes the sub-
joined glowing account of the committal of Mr.
Delmege :
"Ennis, Saturday, Half-past Eleven o'Clock.
" Mr. C. Delmege, J.P., against whom a verdict of
Wilful Murder' was found by the Coroner's jury at
Six-mile-bridge, on Wednesday last, has this moment
arrived under a strong escort of the 3d Dragoon Guards,
and been lodged in the county gaol. Though the an-
nouncement of his expected coming had been made but
halt an hour previously, immense crowds assembled
to get a glance at one against whom so much of po-
pular feeling has been aroused, and whose name,
whatever be the final issue of the proceedings insti-
tuted, will remain for ever linked with the deplorable
tragedy of the 22d of July. Old and young—men,
women, and children—were to be seen rushing with
headlong impetuosity in the direction of the prison, and
some, more anxious than ethers to behold a justice of the
peace a prisoner under a charge of wilful murder on
poor and helpless peasantry, proceeded a considerable
distance on the Clare-road to await his arrival. On ap-
proaching Ennis the walls at either side of the road
were crowded; the outer walls and gate of theprison,i.ads
well as the approaches thereto, were completely
groaning
and blocked up, and, as the cortege passed, the
and hooting were loud and continuous. 2, Ir. Delmege,
with the police-officer in charge, was_ in a covered car,
and, on emerging therefrom in the outer yard, the
groaning was renewed with increased vigour, and mixed
up with such epithets as A speedy uprise to you from
the ground to the gallows'!" High hanging to the Six-
mile-bridge murderer,' &c. Mr. Delmege, who looked
very pale and downcast, was then received by the officer
of the prison; and tho crowds separated with marked
manifestations of joy at the event they had just
witnessed. As a proof of the feeling of the people
I may mention, that it having been. ascertained that
the driver of the covered car was one of the witnesses
for:the military at Six-mile-bridge, all attempts made by
him to provide stabling in Ennis were ineffectual. I have
not been able to ascertain what special accommodation,
if any, has been prepared for Mr. Delmege; but the sol-
diers'of the 31st occupy tho ordinary cells, with a yard,
apart from the other prisoners. They are allowed to
procure their own diet, but malt and spirituous liquors
are not permitted. Captain Eager, of the 31st, arrived,
here from Limerick yesterday, and visited his brave
men' in prison. There are forty men of the 47th sta-
tioned within the prison for the ' protection' of the ac-
cused soldiers."
