IRELAND.

DUBLIN, Friday.
The soldiers who walked in the Dublin Fenian
procession are still in custody, the report of the
Court of Inquiry into the case not having been yet
sent to the authorities.

A Dublin telegram says the man arrested in that
city is understood by the police to be Lennon, who
was chief in counnand of the Fenian insurgents in
the March insurrection at Tallaght. Ile was armed
with a six-chambered revolver when arrested.

The Dublin Evening 21fail says five persons will
be tried for high treason.

Another Dublin telegram says the Government
prosecution for sedition against theproprietor of the
Irishman newspaper was proceeded with yesterday
before the police magistrates, at Dublin. The sum-
mons was issued, at the suit of the Attorney-
General, against Mr. Richard Pigott, the proprietor,
to show cause why a criminal information should
not be filed against him for seditious publications
in his journal. The range of the prosecution ex-
tends from June last up to last Saturday.—The
magistrates, having investigated the charge, com-
mitted the prisoner for trial.

TIIL CLERKENWELL 0 UTRAGE. —The prisoners
Burke, Casey, and Shaw, who were on Wednesday
committed for trial at Warwick from Bow-street Police-
court, on a charge of treason-felony, arrived at the War-
wick station of the Great Western Railway shortly after
six o'clock the same afternoon. Thera was no one ready
to receive them, and they had to remain in the waiting
room, in charge of Superintendent Durkin and the con-
stables who accompanied him, until the prison van ar-
rived, when they were conveyed in safety to the county
gaol. Their arrival had been announced by telegraph,
but from some obscurity in the telegram it was expected
that they would arrive at the Avenue Station, Leaming-
ton, by the North-Western Railway, where a large force
of police were in readiness to receive them. Their com-
mittal for trial at the Warwick Assizes has caused con-
siderable excitement, both in Warwick and Leamington.
The county gaol, which stands about half a mile from
the borough of Warwick, is guarded by a strong body of
police. It is a large building, was erected in 1860, con
tains over 300 coils, and is conducted on the rigid separat4
system, -
