MILITARY FORCE.
DUBLIN, SEPT. 11.—The Peel Ministry find that
Ireland has become a greater difficulty than ever. The
reversal of the judgment, and the triumph of O'Con-
nell, have led to new apprehensions and increased
precautions, which prove the bewilderment of the
Government. They know not what to do, and they
render themselves utterly ridiculous by renewing the
game of fortifications played off so absurdly by Lord
De Grey last year.
In the interior the same precautions are aiopted,
where Lord De Grey's fortifications are considered
insecure. The Ballyshannon Herald says :—" An
extensive magazine is now being added to the Rock
barrack of this town ; the barrack is also enlarging
for the reception of an increased force ; and the
Bridge barrack is fitting up for the accommodation of
the pensioners of the district."
Some regiments are daily expected, and the mili-
tary force is to be increased beyond its amount during
the State trials. Some detachments had been drafted off
since that time, but their places are to be supplied.
The Cork Reporter of yesterday afternoon contains
the following :
" DEPARTURE OF THE TROOP SHIPS FROM COVE.
—Four of the vessels chartered by the East India
Company, for the conveyance of troops from Ireland
to Bombay and Calcutta, sailed yesterday without
the regiments, and the others will get under weigh
for their destination as soon as they can land the
luggage and extra stores taken on board, and make
other necessary arrangements on ship board required
by the alteration of their fittings-up, &c. The sol-
diers heard of the countermand with great satisfac-
tion, and, according to our information, their officers,
naturally enough, participated in the same feelings.
