IRELAND.

(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
DUI3LIN, WEDNESDAY MORNING.
Mr. T. F. Meagher was this day admitted to bail
to stand his trial for sedition at the Assizes of Lime-
rick. Ile afterwards addressed the populace, and
warned them against a premature insurrection.
Mr. Doheny was arrested yesterday in Cashel, for
sedition, and is to be tried at Nenagh Assizes.
The populace would have rescued Meagher and
Doheny, but for the formidable demonstration of mi-
litary and police.

(FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.)
WATERFORD, JULY 11.—Mr. Meagher arrived here
yesterday, and at half-past nine o'clock in the evening
attended a meeting of the Felon's Club, when were ap-
pointed a president and other officers of that body.
About 5,000 people were assembled outside the club-
rooms, but were disappointed, as Mr. Meagher did not
address them; the meeting broke up shortly before
eleven o'clock. The city has been thrown into atate
of dreadful commotion to-day by the arrest of Mr.
Meagher, nt the residence of his father, one of the
city Members. At about two o'clock, second-class
head constable Hughes called on Mr. Meagher
and arrested him. Two Dublin detectives were
then introduced, and Captain Gun, chief constable.
The news spread like wildfire, the Young Icelanders
ran for their pikes and guns, but Mr. Meagher cau-
tioned them in a strong manner against rescuing him.
The Rev. Mr. Tracy, of Ballibricken, also spoke to the
multitude (say 10,000) at much length, and exhorted
them to peace ; they were also informed that Mr.
Meagher would be shot, if any attempt to rescue him
were made. As I write (half-past five, P.M.), a park of
artillery of four guns, is drawn up outside Mr. Meagher's
residence, with 400 infantry with fixed bayonets, and a
troop of cavalry with drawn swords ; it is expected he
will be removed to Dublin in half an hour hence, when,
it is to be hoped, no rescue will be attempted ; should
such occur, I will write another letter. The artillery
have their port. fires burning. It is said that the charge
against Mr. Meagher has been made ,from some letters
found in the !Nation office, when it was broken into by
the police at Mr. DufTs arrest. The weather is warm
here, and I fear the work will be so. At Carrick-on-
Suir the young faction are scarcely held, and defy the
police, &c., there. The boatmen there are a terrible
race, and if they had but time to come to Waterford, all
the forces here could not guard Mr. Meagher.
P.S.—lt was for a speech at Rathkeale that Mr.
Meagher was arrested. The informations were sworn
by two policemen, and in the opinion of an eminent bar-
rister here are unsustainable. Six Carrick men rode
express to Carrick for the Young Irelanders there, but
two Waterford men were sent off to prevent any ex-
citement amongst the people of that town, as, but for
Mr. Meagher's caution, there would have been a rescue
attempted here by the citizens. He goes to Dublin by
the mail at half-past six, P.M.—Chronicle.

DUBLIN, JULY 11.
MORE ARRESTS.—It is Said to-day that warrants for
the arrest of several of the provincial leaders, including
Mr. Doheny, of Cashel, and Mr. D. Shine Lawlor, of
Cork, were forwarded to the country by the mail of last
night.

THE FELONIOUS NEWSPAPER.—The Irish Felon pub-
lished a third edition this morning, which, notwithstand-
ing the seizures made on Saturday, and the positive
prohibition of yesterday, the police permitted to be sold
in large quantities.
THE CLUBS.—There were meetings of the Confede-
rated Clubs throughout the city last night. Policemen
were stationed at the doors of tho club-houses, and the
members as they entered were noted.
THE DISTURBANCE IN TRINITY-STREET, YESTERDAY.
—COLLEGE-STREET POLICE OFFICE, THIS DAL—The
hearing of this case was gone into to-day. After e
lengthened investigation, Mr. Brennan, of the Fe/on
newspaper, was bound over to stand his trial at the next
Commission, and Mr. Stephen J. Meany was directed
to enter into personal security to keep the peace.
The Police Commissioners have issued the following
order

" The Commissioners of Police having been informed
that in one instance a copy of the Felon newspaper was
seized in the hands of a gentleman who was reading it,
hereby caution the police against such interference wits
individuals.

" The orders given respecting this newspaper were, to
seize it in the places where it was sold, or in the hands
of hawkers, as a seditious print, but not otherwise."
SLIGO ELECTION.—The Sheriff has issued his precept
fixing the election for to-morrow, the polling on Friday-
Mr. Hartley will in all probability be returned.
Wednesday morning, six o'clock.
THE LEAGUE.—An advertisement appeared in the
morning papers, announcing that a meeting of the mem-
bers of " The League," would be held in the Music Hall
at seven o'clock last evening. The chair was taken at a
quarter after eight o'clock by Mr. Barnewall.
After proceedings of the usual character,
Mr. T. I). M'GEE then proposed the following resolu-
tion:—" That it be an instruction to the committee to
dispatch as soon as possible deputations to all the chief
points of the country to explain to the people the prin-
ciples and objects of the League, and to secure their
active co-operation in its efforts to achieve the legislatire
independence of Ireland."
Mr. HEALY, of Clonmel, seconded the resolution,
which was passed.
The meeting was shortly afterwards dissolved.
Quarter to Seven.
ARREST OF MR. MEAGHER.—Mr. T. F. Meagher
arrived in Dublin a few minutes ago by the Carlow
train in charge of two policemen, and the Learned Gen'
tleman is now a prisoner at the head police-office.

ARMISTICE BET WEEN DENMARK

AND GERMANY.

" Lloyd's, 12th July, 1848.
" My Lord,—There appearing to be some doubt 0
to the fact of an Armistice having been concluded
between the Government of Denmark and the Ger•
man Confederation, and it being of the greatest irir
portance to the mercantile community that correct
information on that subject should be afforded 0
early as possible, I am requested by the Committee
for Managing the Affairs of Llo3 d's, to inquire if
your Lordship can favour me with any official infer'
mation relative thereto.--I have the honour to be, of
Lord, your Lordship's most obedient and very humble
servant,

" Foreign Office, July 12, 1848.
" Sir,—With reference to your letter of tbis
day's date, I am directed by Viscount Palmerston,
to inform you that the draft for an armistice, which
was drawn up at Malmoe, between the Plenipoten'
tiaries of Denmark and the Germanic Confed era'
tion, has been accepted by the Prussian Government,
and that orders have been sent by them to General
Wrangel to sign the same, and to give provisionally'
full effect thereto. There seems reason, moreover'
to hope, that these orders which have been sent by
the Prussian Government, as representing in Oil
matter the German Confederation, will not be dis-
avowed by the Frankfort Diet.

The return of property stolen from the colony, e
