IRELAND.

DUBLIN, SUNDAY MORNING.
THE SPECIAL COMMISSION.
The Special Commission will certainly be held in Tip-
perary about the time already mentioned, towards the
close of September. The indictment against Messrs.
Smith O'Brien, Meagher, and the other persons impli-
cated in the insurrection at Ballingarry, has been pre-
pared. It is a very voluminous document. In order
that there should be no delay after the opening of the
commission, the indictment will be printed at once. As
soon as the bills are found by the grand jury, printed
copies of the indictment, with the names of the wit-
nesses for the prosecution, will be furnished to the agents
of the prisoners, who will be required to plead within
the time specified by the Act. It is stated that Chief
Justice Blackburne and Baron Richards will be the pre-
siding judges. The petit jury for the trial of the
prisoners will be taken from the grand panel, and all the
persons on that panel will be bound to attend, with the
exception, of course, of the twenty-three who will form
the grand jury for the finding of the bills of indictment.
DUBLIN, SATURDAY EVENING.—The weather has con-
tinued fine during the day, with a higher temperature
than has been felt since the commencement of the rain
in the early part of last month. Such a harvest day as
this is invaluable; and in the country around Dublin the
farmers are taking full advantage of it. On Sunday last,
when the weather was equally favourable, an immense
quantity of grain was reaped in the county of Wicklow,
where the farmers in some instances fearing a return of
.
ram, removed the grain with the straw to places of
shelter.
The Mercantile Advertiser has the following statement
on the Irish whisky*trade:—
" There is a strong tendency to speculate in this
article, owing to the unfavourable reports of the harvest,
and to the opinion which generally prevails that the
potato crop will be seriously. dallier!" by the disease
which has again made its appearance in this country.
The price has accordingly risen very considerabit, and
we understand that sales have bees made at 3s. 6d. per
gallon, 25 per cent. over prSof,'for the make .21 last
season. The quantity on hand is unusually small, but
the distillers purpose commenciqg operations much
earlier than usual, when the price ft r new will probably
open at or about 3s. It is thought that there will be a
great deal of wheat fit for no other purpose, anti that it
will be largely used in this trade during the ensuing
season. We have watched with much interest the pro-
gress of certain measures affecting this important branch
of Irish trade, in their different stages before the legis•
lature, and we are aware that there has been a deputation
in London for some time endeavouring to procure some
modification of those measures, which the distillers con-
sider will be highly prejudicial to their interests; but we
regret to learn that they have had but little success, and
that the Chancellor of the Exchequer is determined, as
far as possible, to supplant the home manufacture by the
introduction of colonial spirit on the most favourable
terms."

It has been already stated that the " Moral Force"
Repealers of Conciliation Hall, from a wholesome terror
of the suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act, have post-
poned their meetings " for an indefinite period." The
Limerick Reporter, referring to the hopeless condition of
Conciliation Hall, says:—
"A Dublin correspondent assures us, that the entire
of the valuable library, together with the extensive stock
of publications of every sort, stationary, &c., on the pre-
mises, have been disposed of to Mr. Duffy, the publisher
of Wellington-quay, in order to liquidate the debts due
on the concern."

The Freeman's Journal gives the following account of
the progress of the sale of Mr. Gavan Duffy's effects, for
the benefit of his creditors and his family:—
" This sale was continued yesterday, and if possible
attracted more attention than on the two former days,
particularly as it was announced that the library would
be submitted to public competition. The attendance of
purchasets was most numerous, and clergymen of every
denomination were present. Several persons from Eng-
land and also from the provinces attended. The auc-
tioneer had applications from parties in England and
Scotland for catalogues of the sale. It would be impos-
-1 Bible to enumerate the details of this auction; but a few
facts may suffice to show the anxiety manifested by the
public to possess some of the articles set up. A small
card containing the autographs of the State prisoners of
1843 (worth intrinsically about 4d.), sold for 14s. 6d.;
M‘Geogkegan's " Ireland" brought 11 1 ls. •' " Chuzale-
wit" with Mr. Duffy's autograph, 13s. 6d. There were
about 400 volumes sold, consisting chiefly of minor works
---rthe original value of which was small, yet these, in
consequence of containing the autograph of Mr. Duffy,
brought prices at least amounting to ten times the
primary cost. The sale was ultimately adjourned to
this day, as it was found impossible to get into the
library, and many persons who attended to bid for the
state furniture (used in Richmond Bridewell), had to
retire, as the auction of the less valuable portion of the
books occupied the entire day."
The Limeriok Reporter thus describes the state of that
city:—
" Never did our city present more unmistakeably all
the painful symptoms of extreme destitution, and its

inovfiable consequence—extensive demoralization of the
humbler classes, than at present. Night robberies and
petty crimes against property are alarmingly on the
increase.

The Clonmel Chroxiole has the following strange para-
graph about Mr. Maher, Member for Tipperary, and
the military officers in the camp at Turtulla.—
" Mr. Nicholas Maher, M.P., arrived at his residence,
Turtulla, on Sunday last, and felt most indignant that
the military officers still continued to make use of his
stable, notwithstanding his Parliamentary motion, and
proceeded at once to eject the quadruped intruders. It
is said, however, that his indignation did not extend to
their owners, for he afterwards hospitably solicited
their company at a special entertainment, which invi-
tation was declined."

The Leinster Express, a Conservative journal, has
the following letter from Gort, county of Galway:—
"It is said that the gentry here, with Lord Gort at
their head, think that now is the time for every man
having property or stake in the country, to declare for
a sitting of the Imperial Parliament in Dublin for at
least two months in the year. Heaven knows it is time
that something should be done for Ireland,•now, in the
eleventh hour, when she is on the verge of utter ruin.
Unless the landed proprietors in Ireland bestir them-
selves, the great majority of them will become paupers,
for their lands will be found worth very little more than
the poor rate and taxes, which, added together, will
soon, if things progress as they at present do, be 20s. in

the pound." -
