IRELAND.

DUBLIN, Nov. 29.

Lord Strathnairn, Commander-in-Chief of the
Forces in Ireland, arrived from England yesterday
evening by the mail steamer Munster. The Munster
was alongside the pier at 5 40, thus enabling both the
mail and passenger special trains to be despatched to
Dublin before 6 o'clock, and bringing the through
journey from Loudon to Dublin considerably under
the stipulated 11 hours.
The Belfast papers report that on Tuesday even-
ing Constable Clingham arrested in Belfast a man
named Bernard Kenney, a stonemason, under the
Habeas Corpus Act, on suspicion of being connected
with the Fenian conspiracy. The grounds of the
arrest were not allowed to transpire by the autho-
rities, but the accused was ordered to be kept
in close custody. Last night another person was
arrested on the same charge, but was set at liberty
immediately afterwards, he having satisfied the
authorities that he was not in any way connected
with Fenianism. On the same day, during the dis-
charge of the cargo of the Fleetwood steamer, a
auspicious-looking cask, labelled " hardware," was
seized on being landed in the shed by the Custom-
house officers on duty there. The cask on being
opened was found to contain about a hundredweight
of ball cartridges, which were well packed up. The
cask was taken to the Custom-house, where, it is
understood, it will be detained.

It is stated that Mr..M'Clintock has been ap-
pointed solicitor to the Board of Works. The salary
was £l,BOO, but the Treasury has now reduced it
to £1,200.

MR. BRIGHT ON IRISH POLICY.—A. gentleman at
Exeter has received the following letter from Mr.
Bright in reference to the Irish question :—" Rochdale,
Nov. 24, 1866—Dear Sir, —I thank you for your note and
the newspaper. The Irish landlords feel that they can
rely on English force to sustain them, and they are careless
as to the condition of the country and the feelings of the
tenantry. My plan would rob nobody. I would give more
than its present market value for any estate purchased,
and I would make a new race of proprietors out of the pre-
sent occupiers, and thus convert them from discontent to a
real loyalty to their country. Everything proposed for
Ireland is opposed by the Tory, the Church, and landlord
party, and yet this party has itself nothing to suggest.
Discontent and insurrection may menace the country, but
English force is always at hand, so the landlord sleeps in
peace, and feels that his rent and his power aro secure. If
Ireland were 1,000 miles away from us, all would be at
once changed, justice would be done, or the landlord would
be exterminated by the vengeance of the people. I eee
nothing better in the future so long as the people of the
United Kingdom are excluded from the House of Commons,
and how soon we may be able to hear them included is
more than I can tell. Ido what I can for them, and now
they are doing something for themselves. I hope there
may be some result before long. My correspondence is
very burdensome, so forgive this brief note, and believe
me yours very truly, JOUN Ditioallt"
