IRELAND.
THE " ARMAMENT."
DUBLIN, APRIL 17.—The police authorities have at
length aroused themselves to a sense of the duties which
are due to public decorum, to say the very least of it.
Yesterday a stop was put to the rifle practice on the
North-strand, where, as usual the " National Guard "
mustered in full force for they purpose of drilling, 84e•
With the exception of one or two rernonstrants against
the order, the men of war quietly reversed arms and
marched peaceably home.
There was considerable excitement at the head office
of police this morning, it having transpired that last
night thirteen young men were arrested in Ship-street
by the police, and were to be brought before the magis-
trates to-day, on a charge of having unlawfully assem-
bled for the purpose of drilling and military exercise,
contrary to the provisions of the Act of Parliament,
which renders the persons so employed liable to be
indicted for a misdemeanour, punishable by transporta-
tion for seven years. At one o'clock the prisoners were
put to the bar to answer the charge. They were all
young men, of the better orderof mechanics, well
dressed, and for the most part " fit for service." fhe
office was crowded to excess, and several military
gentlemen were spectators. Mr.. Baldwin, Q C th
Castle adviser, a and Mr. Perrin ipp7laered, for the •Cdr.o.lAvin;
Mr. O'H ea, Mr. Meagher (not of t
Dolieny, of the Irish Confederation, were for, and
pri-
soners. Mr. Mitchell was also present to watch the
proceedings. The following evidence was taken
Luke Prender sworn, and examined by Mr. PORTER—
lahe
l
am a sergeant in the metropolitan police, and. I
to charge these men with unlawfully assembling hn
ere
empty workshop in the rear of No. 14, Ship-street, and
there practising military exercises for revolutionary
purposes ; the prisoner Gogarty was engaged in drilling
the prisoners at the time I arrested them, which was
near ten o'clock last night. I heard him (Gogarty) tell
them to fall into line, to pay attention, and to stand at
ease, just in the same way as the military recruits were
trained. The prisoners were perfectly unarmed. I
brought Sergeant Hilliard with me, who also saw what
was going forward. After they received the command
they immediately fell in line, but I did not see them
march round the room. The first time I went into the
house in Ship-street was on Friday night between nine
and ten o'clock ; and on that evening I also saw the
drilling take place, Gogarty giving the commands as on
Sunday night.
Mr. UREA objected to any evidence being received
against Gogarty respecting the proceedings of Friday
evening. The present charge against htdl and the rest
of the prisoners ought to be confined towiiat took place
last evening ; and it was quite contrary to the rules of
evidence to support the present charge by evidence of
what took place on a different occasion.
Mr. PORTER decided on receiving the evidence ; what
ho proposed to do was, to hear any evidence as to whether
he should send the prisoner Gogarty for trial for the
practice of training and drilling, and the exercise of
arms, for revolutionary purposes. Any evidence tending
to substantiate that charge he would not reject.
Examination continued—l found several papers on the
persons of Gogarty and English, the latter of whom is
the secretary of the club. The witness here handed
the documents referred to, to Mr. Porter.
Mr. PORTER read the contents of the papers. One
found on Gogarty contained drawings of two pike heads
and two handles. The other papers found on the per-
son of the English prisoner were the following:—An
admission ticket to the Dublin Rifle Club, signed,
Andrew English, secretary ; a list of the subscribers to
the club, with the sums subscribed opposite their
names, and the residences of the parties subscrib-
ing. A list of the rules of the club, amongst
which were the following :—" Members to be sup-
plied with a home-made rifle at first-cost price,
and any persons were entitled to enter the lists of the
club who consented to bind themselves to pay 4d. a week,
and devote themselves to the service of their country."
Witness (to Mr. PERRIN)—I got into the room where
the prisoners were assembled by means of a wooden
step-ladder which I found in the yard at the rear of the
house. From the top of this Vedder I was enabled to
see all that took place in the room. The prisoner Eng-
lish asked me to join the club, and I said I would
not. He said they were preparing a shooting gallery,
and that if I called next week I would get a shot ; the
prisoners, of course, did not know that I was a detective
policeman.
To Mr. OUlee—l went to this place in coloured
clothes ; I admit that I seized Gogarty on last evening
without warrant or authority, and then rifled his pockets
of the papers they contained. I did not toll them that
they were engaged in unlawful practices, nor did I en-
courage them in what they were doing.
Mr. O'HEA—Do you call it drilling to revolution,
when there was neither gun, pistol, or sword found on
the premises ? Witness—l do.

Mr. O'llEA—Were you sent to this place ? Witness
—I was.
Mr. O'HEA—Did Colonel Browne dispatch you there?
Witness—He did not.

Mr. O'lfra—llid the person who sent you on Friday
evening desire you to tell the persons who were there
on that occasion that they were acting illegally ? Wit-
ness—No.

Mr. 013 EA—Is it not a fact that this club-room is
separated from the police station, in Chancery-lane by a
single brick wall?, Witness--I don't know, but they arc
near each other.

Mr.O'HEA—When did you get the information which
brought you there on Friday and Sunday night? Wit-
ness—l will not tell you that.
Constable Hilliard, who accompanied tho last witness
on the two occasions referred to, was next examined,
and corroborated the evidence of Sergeant Prender.
Mr. Frend, Lieutenant and Adjutant of the 55th
Regiment, was then sworn and examined—Ho deposed
that from the evidence ho heard given by the two wit-
nesses examined, he was of opinion that the prisoners
received a training similar to what he had seen young
recruits receive when enlisted in the army.
To Mr. O'HEA—I do not consider the terms of com-
mand used by the prisoner Gogarty to be exclusively
military. _ _

Mr. "O'HEa. then addressed the bench on behalf of the
prisoners. lle contended that they could not b. e sent
for trial under the Act of Parliament under which the
present
charge was preferred. The words of the Act
made it unlawful for " large assemblies of armed men to
meet together for the practice of military movements,"
but it never contemplated military practice by a few
unarmed boys in a private room. The idea of a State
prosecution` under such circumstances, was beyond all
ridicule. Could any person believe, because thirteen
young lads met in a room without weapons of any kind,
and obeyed the words of military command, that such
could be deemed as the Act set forth to be " to the im-
minent danger of the public peace, and to the great terror
and alarm of her Majest) 's subjects?" Unless the Bench
were of this opinion, ho contended that the prisoners
were entitled to their discharge.
Mr. Dontar, in addressing the bench for one of the
prisoners, said that the prosecution had been brought
before them by a Government calling itself a determined
Government; and in those times that Government pro-
posed to preserve the peace of the city of Dublin by
directing a prosecution against a few boys.
Mr. PORTER asked what had the Bench to do with the
policy of the prosecution?
Mr. DOIIF.NY said, as counsel for one of the accused
party, he had a right to explain and give his opinion
upon the policy of the prosecution.
Mr. PORTER again said that the Bench had nothing at
all to say on the subject of the policy of the prosecution.
Mr. Dolma( said he was as fully entitled to apply
himself to the consideration of the case in that office as
in any other court of justice, and to apply to the magis-
trates, in their characters as jurors, to decide upon the
facts, according to the evidence; and, upon that evidence
he contended that no jury would believe a word said by
either of the witnesses produced to sustain the prosecu-
tion. He called upon the magistrates to dismiss the
case, and discharge the prisoners.
Mr. BALDWIN, Q.C., in reply, said that the statute on
which he relied for the commtttal of the prisoners had
the peculiar merit of being so explicit that there was no
misunderstanding it. Having read the preamble and
some sections of the Act, and commented upon them, the
Learned Gentleman concluded by contending that the
magistrates were bound to commit the parties for trial.
After a re-examination of Sergeant Prender, and
some legal arguments OR both sides, the Bench decided
in sending Gogarty for trial for a breach of the Act, in
having been found drilling certain persons in military
evolutions, preparatory to the use of arms; and with
respect to the other prisoners, a question might be
raised in their favour.
The prisoner Gogarty was accordingly held to bail,
himself in 501. and two sureties of 251. each. The other
prisoners were each held to bail, themselves in 201. and
two sureties of 101. each, to appear at the next Com-
mission.

Bail hating been procured, the prisoners were dis
charged.

RUN ON THE SAVINGS' BANKS.
The run for gold has extended to the nohrt. The
Dundalk paper says
" We have been informed by several friends that ap•
plications have been made to them by small farmers,
whether they would advise them to get gold for their
notes. In Ardee and Castlebollingham even Bank of
Ireland notes have been altogether refused or taken at a
discount of 2e. In Ardee, in particular, for the last two
days, there has been a large draw made on the savings'
bank. We ask the Government where will this end, or
what remedy they will apply? or rather, the merchants
and landlords, before many weeks have elapsed, will be
forced to put this question to the imbecile rulers of our
country."
The following is from the commercial report of the
Freeman's Journal:—
" There has been a very heavy demand for gold
during the last two weeks, partly
for emigrants _

be between 200,0001. and 300,0001., and the run, if such
it can be called, has perceptibly diminished the last two
or three days."
REPEAL ASSOCIATION.

This body met on Monday at one o'clock in Concilia-
ion hall. There was a crowded attendance, including
Mr. O'Connell, M.P., Mr. John O'Connell, M.P., the
Earl of Miltown, the Rev. Dr. "Ailey, Mr.l). O'Connell,
Alderman O'Brien, M.P., Alderman Meagher, M.P., &c.
The chair was filled by
Mr. MAuiucE LEYNE, who made a short speech, which
he concluded by reminding Lord John Russell " that
Guizot laughed immoderately."—(This sentiment was
loudly cheered by the audience, not one of whom knew
what it meant.)
Mr. M. O'CONNELL then read letters from Messrs.
Scully, Greene, and Devereux, the members for Tippe-
rary, Kilkenny, and Wexford, announcing their inten-
tion of acting on the deputation to wait upon the Queen
with the address of the Irish people praying for repeal;
and afterwards a communication from 1)r. Browne, the
Roman Catholic Bishop of Elphin, which was ordered
for insertion on the minutes.
Lord MinTowN then addressed the meeting, and asked
two questions,— -By what means the Act of Union was
carried? and by what means its repeal alone could be
prevented? By blood, he said, it was carried in con-
junction with bribery; and blood alone would enable the
Government to continue it, for the people of Ireland
were naturally loyal and were always the firm supporters
of a monarchy.—(Cheers.) His Lordship concluded by
referring to the Times, which he said had stated that his
coronet was doomed if repeal were passed, observing at
present it was nothing more than an incumbrance—an
empty title, which would be of some value if the Irish
Lords and Commons assembled in College-green.
Mr. GALLWAY then brought forward the following
resolutions:—
" Whereas the claims of Ireland to a domestic Parlia-
ment are so just in principle and in relation, not only to
the well- being of this country, but the stability of the
empire at large, of such paramount importance, that for

and augmented hope the singularly able and convincing
manner is which the right of Ireland to her independent

by Mr. John O'Connell, his speech having challenged

mies; and that the thanks of the association are justly
due, and are hereby tendered, to the Hon. Member for
the same."

I❑ doing so, he said they should make a declaration of
faith and he would propose one.—(Hear, hear) A groan
for the English Parliament.—(Groans.) A cheer for
the Queen, Lords, and Commons of Ireland.—(Cheers.)
The Learned Gentleman before sitting down urged the
adoption of the policy of the association, during which
he was frequently interrupted by cheers for Mitchell and
the other two traversers.

Tho Rev. Dr. MILEY, parish priest, seconded the mo-
tion, and urged peace and order as the only means of
ensuring success.—(hear, hear.) That was his firm be-
lief, but if Providence decreed it otherwise he would say,
" God's will be done."—(Cheers.)
_ _

Mr. J. O'CONNELL having entered into a long history
of his late trip to London, concluded by stating that he
and his brother would to the last uphold the policy of
his father, and if the association were found to to op-
posed to it he would resign.
The meeting is not yet over, but the rent will be
about 25/.

THE MURDER AT WESTMINSTER.
Mr. Bedford, the Coroner, and a jury composed of the
respectable householders of the neighbourhood, met yes-
terday afternoon at the Feathers, Dean-street, West-
minster, to inquire into the cause of death of Maria
Eddoas, who was found stabbed in the neck on Sunday
morning, in Wilton-row, Westminster.
Richard Eddons, a gardener and labourer, in the em-
ployment of Mr. 11. Ainsworth, Manor-house, Kensal-
green, was sworn, and stated that deceased (who has
hitherto been considered 20 years old in consequence of
her having so described herself on the occasion of her
being taken into custody about a fortnight ago) was 27
years of age last Christmas-day. She was witness's
daughter, and unmarried.

The evidence of the witnesses Dowling, Keene,
Wright, Carte, and Cummings, given the previous day
at the examination of William Tompkins, the accused
party, at the Westminster Police-court, was then re-
peated, and Mr. G. Pearse, surgeon, 5, Regent-street,
in addition to his former testimony, stated that he had
that morning made a post mortem examination of the
body of the deceased in the presence of four other me-
dical gentlemen. The external appearance presented a
horizontal wound, three-quarters of an inch in length,
between the left collar bone. It penetrated the cavity
of the chest, between the first and second rib, half an
inch from the breast bone, taking a direction downwards,
considering the body to be standing erect at the time,
and a little wounding the edge of the left lung, perfo-
rating the pericardium, and wounding the pulmonary
artery. There were six ounces of blood effused into the
pericardium, and eight ounces into the cavity of tl,e
chest. These would cause immediate death.
The jury returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against
William Tompkins."

Majority... £84,914 0
The CRAIRMAN said that the directors had no objec-
tion personally to throw overboard the steamboat ques-
tion—they had been influenced in their course through-
out solely by a sense of duty to the proprietary.
Mr. Alderman WILSON proposed an adjournment for
six weeks, with a view of their filling up the vacancies
in the direction.
The CTIAIRMAN said he was advised that the meeting
were legally bound to fill up the vacancies at once.
A conversation ensued as to whether the four retiring
directors were not bound to have given notice of their
intentions to offer themselves for re-election, which they
had not in fact done ; but the solicitor stated that no
notice was necessary.
Mr. Pow proposed the election of Mr. Milts, a
shareholder, but not previously a director, in whose caso
notice bad been given.
Ultimately the retiring directors, viz , Mr. E. Wigan,
Mr. E. Crowley, Mr. J. Whishim, and Mr. J. Lowrie
were re-elected, Mr. Power declaring it to be his inten-
tion to appeal to another tribunal.
_ _

Messrs. Marriott and Green were elected auditors,
and a vote of thanks was given to the chairman and the
directors.

EAST INDIA RAILWAY.

An extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders
was held yesterday, at the London Tavern, at one oclock ;
Mr. Aglionby, M.P., in the chair.

The CHAIRMAN stated that since the issuing of the
last report the most remarkable feature in the company's
affairs was the failure of the engagement entered into
with the East India Company as to the raising of
100,0001. The Bill was, however, about to go into
Committee unopposed, and might almost be considered
as having already passed. Fifty thousand pounds was
required by the Ist of May, in order to complete the de-
posit. The question to be decided was, whether the
amount should be raised by a call of 21. per share, or
whether the whole undertaking should be abandoned.
Thinking that there ought to be no hesitation, he pro-
posed that the nmount mentioned should be called
up, on the condition, that in the event of the company
stopping before the cold season arrived, it should be re-
turned to the proprietors without deduction ; that is, if
invested, as it probably would be, in Consols ; and if tho
state of the Consol market admitted of that being done.
This call would realise about 76,0001., or 20,0001. more
then was actually required to fulfil the contract.
After some conversation,

On the motion of Mr. WILSON, seconded by Mr. HEN-
DERsoN, the meeting agreed to a call of 21., with a proviso
that in the event of its not reaching 100,0001. early
enough to enable the deposit to be paid, the money
should be returned with interest, before the Ist of Oc-
tober; and, further, that no use should in any case be
made of the call, without consulting the shareholders.
It was further resolved, on the motion of Mr. BEAU..
MONT, that the directors should be requested to apply to
the East India Company for improved terms, as regarded
interest, or an extension of the period during which the
guarantee should continue in force.

An amendment for the dissolution of the company
was negatived by a large majority, and a vote of thanks
given to the chairman.

OPENING OF THE BOULOGNE AND AMIENS
RAIL WAY.
BOULOGNE, Mormay.--The last link—a short seven
miles between Boulogne and Neufchatel forming a
complete railway communication from Boulogne to Paris,
was traversed this day for the first time by the ordinary
passenger trains.
The difficulties and delays which have arisen in the
progress of this great work are sufficiently familiar to
your readers to render unnecessary anything more than
a passing allusion to them. The natural obstacles to the
construction of the line, great as they were at some
points, have been as nothing to the vacillating conduct
of those to whom the administration of the affairs of the
railway has unfortunately hitherto been entrusted; and
without here making any more personal allusion, it may
be remarked that the shares in a line of railway—which,
by the positive advantages it possesses over all rival lines,
ought to have commanded nearly the whole of the Paris
traffic—have been rendered almost valueless in the mar-
ket, with a present prospect of very little improvement.
The efforts made last year by the directors of the
South-Eastern Railway, led on by their active and
zealous Chairman (Mr. Macgregor) to obtain a modi-
cum of justice for the English shareholders in the line
—who hold nine-tenths of the property, by the way—
will be recollected by all, and the manner in which they
were met by the French proprietors, headed by M.
Lafitte, is a matter of railway history; a fitting retri-
bution has now fallen on them, for, if present fears are
realised, they are about to be immolated, with their
English brethren, on the republican shrine of Messrs.
Lamartine and Co.

A short week since an intention existed on the part
of the French directors to give some éclat to the long
delayed completion of the line, and celebrate the open-
ing by a preparatory trip along the railway, with a
suitable dtjeuner afterwards, to be presided at by the
ex-Mayor of Boulogre, M. Adam. The threatened
" appropriation" of their property by the Provisional
Government, and the arrival of certain officers appointed
on.their behalf to superintend all the stations along the
line, appears, however, to have had a paralysing effect
on the directory, who, at the last moment, determined
to open the line privately, and without any demonstra-
tion whatever.

The directors of the South• Eastern Railway, with
whose interests it is clear the Boulogne and Amiens line
is most intimately associated, deeming it an unwise
course to allow so interesting an occasion to pass
altogether unnoticed, advertised last week that parties
desirous of reaching Paris the same evening might do
so by leaving London at six o'clock this morning, at
which hour it was stated a special train would leave
for the express purpose of conveying passengers to
Folkestone, where a steamer would be in readiness to
convey them across the channel.
In obedience to your instructions I took a seat in this
train, which consisted of five carriages, all of them, full
of passengers proceeding to Paris, or gentlemen con-
nected with the company.
Among the latter were Mr. Macgregor, the chairman;
Captain Warren, and the Hon. J. Byng, directors; Mr.
P. W. Barlow, resident engineer of the company; Mr.
Freeman, the solicitor; Mr. Fothergill, of the goods de-
partment, &c.

With the characteristic excellence of this railway, the
journey to Folkstone (S 2 miles) was performed in two
hours and a quarter, including two stoppages—at Rei-
gate and Tunbridge; and when I say the journey to
Folkstone, let it be understood that within the time men-
tioned the train had descended the incline, crossed the
harbour, and drawn up alongside the jetty—this being
the first occasion of a train having accomplished this
most desirable end.
The Princess Mary was 13 ing alongside the jetty, and
having embarked her passengers, at twenty minutes past
eight o'clock she left the harbour, and breasted the waves
in beautiful style.
The recollections of the voyage, except to some for-
tunate half-dozen fellows, are not of a nature to dwell
upon. Among the pallid crew I observed the clever
author of a series of " handbooks" which have lately been
poured forth for the edification of her Majesty's lieges.
This morning's experience will have afforded him matter; '
for an interesting brochure on the "Natural History of
Sea-sickness."
The Princess Mary entered Boulogne harbour at a
quarter to eleven o'clock, half an hour having been lost
owing to the prevalence of a strong head wind, An
omnibus and a few flys were immediately chartered, and
off we drove for the railway-station, which is situated
in the suburbs of Capecure, on the opposite side of th•
harbour.
