IRELAND.

DUBLIN, MAY 29. —The two indictments against Mr.
Mitchel for sedition, which were to have been tried in
the present term, have, as a matter of course, been
abandoned by the Crown. Notices have been 'served
upon the two juries which had been struck for the trial
of those cases, intimating that their attendance will not
be required.
The Crown has yet taken no step for proceeding with
new trials in the cases of Messrs. Smith O'Brien and
Meagher; but it is said they will be tried in the present
term.

The United Irishman newspaper is extinct. It appears
that the Crown has Tully carried out the sequestration
against the property of Mr. Mitchel, so far as the print-
ing materials are concerned. The only goods returned
on Saturday were certain fixtures claimed by the land-
lord of the house. As Mr. Mitchel was the registered
proprietor, the Stamp-office has the right to rr'jcct any
other persons seeking to register themselves'es his suc-
cessors. But already a new journal, or rather the United
Irishman revived, is announced, as will be perceived by
the following extraordinary notification:— •

" THE UNITED IRISHMAN.
" TO THE PEOPLE OF IRELAND.

" John Mitchel is a captive in the bands of our ene-
mies. His office, types, and newspaper machinery are
in the hands of the police—the United Irishman is at an
end ; but, under another name, we are anxiously pre-
paring to restore it ; and as soon as we can get together
the necessary materiel of a newspaper, the United Irish-
man will again appear under the sovereign style, title,
and dignity of the Irish Felon, to sustain the principles,
and accomplish the intentions of the illustrious man who
is taken from amongst us. In this case we but dis-
charge our clear duty to our country, and to him.
" The prospectus of the Irish Felon shall be issued is
a few days:
_ _ _

" All debts due to the United Irishman, though not
recoverable by English law, should be paid to William
Mitchel, 8, Ontario-terrace, Rathmines, Dublin, to
whom all communications should be addressed for the
present. All debts due by our friend shall be paid as
soon as possible, or be made chargeable on the Irish
Felon, which shall be really, though not legally, hi.
property.

"Subscribers to the United hishman shall be supplied
with the Irish Felon as soon as possible, and any time
that may intervene shall be allowed thorn in the term of
subscription. " T. DEVIN REILLY,
"JOEIN MARTIN."

The Roman Catholic clergy of tour dioceses have
adopted addresses to the Queen, praying a repeal of the
union. In a fifth diocese, Ard:igh, a similar address
has been signed by eighty-six clergymen. The Roman
Catholic Bishop of that diocese, Dr. O'Higgins, is at
present in Rome.
ARRIVAL OF JOHN MITCHEL AT SPIKE
ISLAND.

HALF PAST FIVE o'CLocK.—An extraordinary edition
of the Cork Examiner, published on Sunday (yesterday)
evening, contains the following:—
‘,‘ The vessel that brought John Mitchel to Spike ar-
rivedin the harbour at an early hour to-day; and before
it dropped-its anchor, the martyr patriot was landed on
the is/and, and handed over to the custody of the go-
vernor.

" lie was brought offshore from the vessel by two of
the Dublin police and two Marines.
" Shortly after his arrival; Ciiptain Atkins, of Water-
park, the inspector of the Penitentiary, gave orders that
a separate room should be provided for him, and that
he should not be interfered with for this day,• but that,
on to-morrow, he would be obliged, to wear the con-
vict dress, and be treated in all respects as an ordinary
convict."

The same journal clntaiaa the following'
" Tow WISH AND CHILDRKK OY JOHN gITCHEL.—
The wife and children of Lhe:felttn patriot belong to. Ire-
land, for wbom the father and the husband has•sacri-
ficed.his ltbarty, and was ready to: yield up his lite. The
law, remorseless in its decrees, haa.seiz-d upon his pro,
perty—their.property ; and they aro now without hus-
band, father, and pi'ovider. Ireland must take that ha-
reaw.d wife to its tenderest care, those helpless children
to its warm bosom. It will be a duty, a justice, and a
consolation. Already Dublin bas set an example, by
commencing the formation of a fund, such as may shield
that afflicted family from the want. which a patriot's de-
votion and the law's' vengeance have drawn down on
their &fenceless heads., The mention of this fact is
.sufficient to insure a universal inaitatiouDf so,grateful
duty."
