DUBLM WBViNESDAY MORNING.--With the ex-
ception of the arrests referred to in the following
communication *which appears in the Freeman's
Journal, there is xio news of importance from the siis-
turbed districts : •
"CLOSAIEL, TUESDAY EVENING.—There was some
little excitement created here this morning by the
march of a co asiderable force of military and police
in the direction of Carrick-on- Suir. Some nervous
people 'would have it that another real rebellion ' had
arisen ; but a few hours dispelled all fears on the sub-
ject. It turned out that the array of military and
police was not called for to encounter the insurgents,
but merely to escort to the gaol of Clonmel some pri-
soners who had been, arrested in Carrick and the
neighbourhood. It seems that at the fair of Carrick
yesterday several persons were arrested on a charge
of having appeexed in arms on the occasion of the
buralng of the police barrack at the slate quarries.
Soma others charged with the same offence were cap-
ture''' in the neighbourhood. The whole of the pri-
soners were kept in Carrick last night, guarded by a
strang force of military and police ; and an express
was sent here for an additional force to bring them
into this town. Hence the departure of the troops and
olice
_this morning. The force consisted of a con-
siderable party of the 64th Regiment, a troop of the
4th Dragoons, and about fifty of the constabulary.
About half way between this and Carrick they re-
ceived the prisoners from the force which escorted
them from the town, and arrived here with them at
half-past one o'clock. The prisoners were at once
committed to the county gaol on the above-mentioned
charge, under a warrant signed by Messrs. W. H.
Briscoe and R. D. Coulson, magistrates. Several of
the prisoners were exceedingly athletic young men.
There were nine of them. Their names are Edward
Ladigan, Wm. Rochford, John Hayes, Richard Da-
niel, Timothy Connell, Wtn. Crotty, Michael Comer-
ford, James Sheehy, James Ladigan.
"It has been announced here to-day that a Mr.
o Ryan, and a lady of the same name, arrived in
Carrick last night, on a charge of having harboured
Mr. O'Mahelay, said to have been a leader of the
people in the late movements. Dr. O'Ryan,' of
Carrick, Is at preurat in Clonmel gaol on a similar
charge,.

" There is still scarcely anything in the appearance
o 2 the town to indicate that it is soon to be the scene
a such an important and generally exciting an event
as a special commission for the trial of persons ac-
cused of high treason. The streets are patrolled to-
day by a body of police, but there is little beyond
this that strikes us as unusual in the appearance of
the town.

" We have heard that twenty-five persons, armed
`nith weapons of different sorts, were arrested last
tiii;ght between Carrick and Kilmacthomas. The
object they had in view does not appear ; but some
will have it that they, with others, had formed the
daring and audacious design of capturing the judges,
and running off with their Lordships into the mountain
fastnesses. Those prisoners have not been yet brought
in here, but their arrest, with arms in their hands, is
positively asserted.
"It is stated that the nine prisoners who were
committed to the gaol of this, town to-day are the
parties against whom the Attorney-General said,
on Saturday, he might have to send up bills of in-
dictment.

" Sir Lucius O'Brien, M. 1., has arrived in town,
where he will remain, it is expected, until after the
trial."

The Clonrnel Chronicle of yesterday contains the
following :

" Bigoe Armstrong Stoney, Esq., of Killavalla-
house, a juror summoned to serve on the Special Com-
mission, left Clonmel on Friday morning last, on foot,
with a view of taking a ramble up the rnouatains ; he
had with him a telescope and a brace of pistols. Ater
rambling for some time, he reached Carrick-on-Suir,
and was walking about that town looking about him ;
after a few minutes, a constable named Tynan tapped
him on the shoulder and arrested him in the
Queen's name. He asked his name, occupation, and
place of residence, and was truly answered by Mr.
-Stoney ; who also told him, in reply to inquiry, that
he had a telescope and brace of pistols with him, two
srvx essential things in these times. The constable
said that he should detain him, and forthwith marched
him off to the station-house. Mr. Stoney requested
to be brougAt before a magistrate, and after a little
delay, he was brought before Mr. Coulson, R.M., by
*horn he was closely examined ; some military offi-
cers were also present, and assisted at the examination.
Mr. Stoney had on an undress cap of the Prussian
infantry, and also bears a striking resemblance to Mr.
Dillon, the rebel fugitive. The Hue and Cry was
now produced, and even tended to convince the ma-
gistrate that he really had hold of Dillon, but Mr.
Stoney urged the reality of his not being a rebel
Dillon, but a Stoney staunch loyalist, in proof of
which he produced his card with his name engraved
thereon, and his pocket-book with some private
entries of his journey from his own residence in the
North Riding, which so coincided with his own plain
and honest tare that Mr. Coulson discharged him,
giving him at the same time the following letter of
protection :

" A gentleman, who gives his name as Bigoe
Armstrong Stoney, of Bnrrisokane, and who had
cards with his name engraved upon them, was brought
before me this day, charged with being a suspicious
character. After a close investigation and inquiry,
I saw no cause for detaining him, and therefore dis-
charged him.—R. D. Conmoil, KM.
" Carrick- on- Suir, 1848.'

" Caaaicx-oN•SuiR, SEPT. 26.—Since Friday a
good mane of the Irish army' have been taken in
this locality—among the rest, • a Mr. James O'Ryan,
brother to Dr. O'Ryan, who is in your county prison.
This Mr. O'Ryan is sworn against as having har-
boured some of the lead'ers while arranging their plan
of operations at Clonea, county Waterford, where
Mr. O'Ryan lives, or rather did live, as be is now in
Waterford gaol. He was, up to the time of his arrest,
collector of poor-rates. A deputy of his, named
Sheedy, was also arrested for being in arms on New-
ton-hill ; also a Mrs. O'Ryan, aunt to O'Mahony, for
having ammunition in her possession, by permission
of General O'Mahony. While I write lam told that
a Mr. Killilea was arrestecthere at twelve o'clock last
night with a case of pistols in his possession. A man
names James Power, high in authority in the' Mitchel
'Club,' has been sworn against for having said To
'h•-- with the Queen ;' bail has been refused, so you
will have him in Clonmel this morning. Some of the
bakers who supplied the insurgents have been taken
up and brought before Mr. Coulson, R.M. He asked
one of them why they baked bread for the rebels ?
They said they would shoot them if they refused,
and after a good lecture they were discharged.
NOthing el,ie particular in this neighbourhood worth
mentioning.
