IRELAND.

DuBLIN, Sept. 3.

A man named Philip Dwyer has been arrested on
suspicion of having formed one of the party by
which Mr. W. Scully was attacked in the recent fatal
affray at Ballycohey. Dwyer was arrested on Mon-
day at his residence near Tipperary, and was con-
veyed by the police to the Bridewell of that town.
It appears that he has been absent from home since
the day of the outrage, and that on venturing to
make his reappearance in public for the first time,
on Monday, he was immediately arrested. He was
taken on Tuesday to Mr. Scully's residence for the
purpose of being identified by that gentleman, who,
says the Tipperary Free Press, had sworn not only
that the prisoner was one of the attacking
party, but that be had actually seen him fire upon
him. The result of the interview has not trans-
pired, but Dwyer was again lodged in gaol. He is
a nephew of the old man at whose house the attack
was made. He has a slight wound on his forehead,
and it is understood that this will be examined by a
medical man with the view of deciding whether or
not it is a gunshot wound.
It is stated that the Hon. David Plunket will
contest the representation of the city of Dublin, in
conjunction with Sir A. Guinness, in the Conserva-
tive interest, it being understood that Mr. Edward
H. Kinahan has definitively withdrawn. It is
also stated that a colleague has been found for Mr.
Pins, the present Liberal member and candidate,
the aspirant to Parliamentary honours being
Mr. Richard Martin. At Belfast the Conservative
leaders have selected a colleague for Sir C. Lanyon
in the person of Mr. John Mulholland, of Spring-
vale, a gentleman who would make an able and
efficient representative. There was some diversity
of opinion at the meeting at which it was resolved
to adopt Mr. Mullholland as one of the Conserva-
tive candidates, but the majority in his favour was
nearly ten to one as against all the other gentlemen
whose names were mentioned. Among these were
Mr. Lewis, solicitor, London, and Mr. Stewart
Blacker, famed for displays of genuine Orange ora-
tory at Orange gatherings. Mr. Mulholland acceded
to the request of the meeting. One of the Limerick
papers says that it is rumoured that the CitY
of Limerick will not be contested. Lord Cre-
morne has commenced his canvass of the county of
Monaghan, having on Tuesday visited Carrickrna-
cross. He was accompanied in his canvass by the
Roman Catholic clergyman of the town, the Rev.
J. J: Hughes. Mr. Cecil Moore, the solicitor of
Mr. Shirley, the opponent of Lord Cremorne, writes
to the Daily Express, in reply to a letter of Mr. it-
C. Leslie French, in which the latter denied that
the wishes of a deputation which recently waited on
Mr. Shirley were, in effect, that he (Mr. Shirley)
should retire from the contest. Mr. Moore says
that Mr. French admits that " the mission of the
deputationwas for the purpose of presenting the re-
solutions of the meeting of the 18th, wherein it was
represented to Mr. Shirley the grave responsibility 11:::
would incur by provoking a contest in the county.
Mr. Moore pertinently asks by what means Mr'
Shirley could avoid this contest, except, by retiring,
and why the deputation did not wait on Lord Cre-
morne and Mr. Leslie, the present members, and,
ask them to consider " the grave responsibility 01
provoking a contest." Mr. Law, Q.C., has been
feeling the pulse of the electors of the city o'
Armagh, at present represented by Mr. J. Vance'
Mr. Law's reception, it is understood, was Be,
encouraging. Mr. Mathews has delivered a second
speech to the electors and non-electors of Dungar-
van. lie said he had come to Dungarvan WOO°
he believed that Mr. Barry had painted the west
generous feeling of their Irish hearts. He had also
come to oppose Mr. Barry because he was 3
Whig, and he (Mr. Mathews) hated the Whigs:
There was a talk of disestablishment of the Irish
Church, but to him it did not seem much matter

whether or not an Irish Bishop sat in the House el:.
Lords. What Mr. Gladstone told them was that 1:10',
a fraction of the endowments of the Established
Church in Ireland should ever belong to the
Catholic Church of Ireland, or to the poor, for
whom, in some part, those endowments were er!,-

ginally destined. Referring to education, he -
