NAB' AL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, TUESDAY.-The Cambrian, 36, bearing the
broad pendant of Commodore H. D. Chads, arrived this morn-
ing from the East India and China station. She appeared off
St. Helen's between nine and ten o'clock, but owing to per-
verse winds and contrary tide, did not make the anchorage
until two o'clock. She saluted when off the Nab Light, which
was returned on her arrival at Spithead by the flag-ship
Victory.
The Commodore came to the dockyard with his dispatches
for the Commander-in-Chief this afternoon, at three o'clock,
in his gig with his broad pendant flying in the bow.
The Cambrian has been three years and eleven months in
commission, and will now be paid off. She brings 63 invalids
(officers and men) from the station.
She left Singapore on the 3d of April, touched at Madras
and the Cape, which latter place she left on the 4th of June,
and called at Ascension. She hail not seen anything of the
experimental squadron.

Captain Sir Edward Belcher, in the Samarang, 26, had gone

to endeavour to,arrange a treaty of commerce.

The Spitfire steam-sloop, Commander Maitland, was at
Madras.

The Wolf, 18, Commander Gordon, was at Amoy.
The Vixen steam-sloop, Commander Glad, was cruising In

The Young Hebe cutter, Lieutenant Commander Bate ; and

ing day for the coast of Africa, her station.
The Fairy (steam-tender to the royal yacht), Master-
Commander Thain, came from Cowes this afternoon, re-
ported with dispatches. On approaching the harbour she
was, very injudiciously, navigated across the flats off the
west buoy of the channel, at the entrance to the harbour,
and opposite the Platform-battery, where, it is almost
needless to add, she grounded, notwithstanding her very
light draught of water. She remained stranded about ten
minutes, the tide a strong ebb at the time ; but, after the time
stated, and after the officer in charge had left her, in a boat for
the Dockyard, to report the misfortune, she worked herself off
the shoal and was moored off the Victoria-pier to await Lord
Adolphus Fitzelarence, and a distinguished party, who ac-
companied the Noble Captain to Goodwood Races. Die
Fairy will be examined, to see if she has sustained any damage
by grounding.

IRELAND.
DUBLIN, JULY 28.
SPREAD OF THE " MOLLY MAGUIRE" SYSTEM.
The High sheriff of Donegal, Lord George A. Hill,
with Colonel Conolly, foreman of the gran jury, Sir
James Stuart, Bart., Sir Robert Bateson, Bart., and
several other magistrates of that county, have published
a declaration announcing it as their &termination, in,
cons, gnome of the service of some " Molly Maguire
notices, to take decided measures for repressing that
baneful system in the district. The magistrates have
agreed to the following resolutions :
" 1. That if a single instance again occurs of a similar
nature, that we immediately apply for such an effective
additional police force, to be introduced into such a dis
trict, and the entire expense of that force to be defrayed
off that district alone, as will effectually put an end to
the proceedings of such a lawless body, and protect the
lives and properties of the peaceable and well- disposed.
And we recommend and urge, in the strongest manner,
the co-operation of all the landholders and occupiers of
land in the county, to prevent a system of outrage or in-
timidation being introduced or gaining ground in this
county, which must, if allowed to gain ground, prove the
destruction of their peace, their lives and their property.
"2. That we find, from clear-proof, that numbers of
persons, total strangers to this county, are now prowling
about it, without any apparent lawful purpose ; and, as
the track of such persons is ever marked with some act
subversive of peace and good order, we cannot urge too
stiongly on the farmers and landholders the wisdom, if
not the necessity of reporting the appearance of all such
persons to the magistrates and police, and on all occa-
sic ns refusing them admissions into their hou'es."
The appearance of the " Molly Maguires" in this
county was as sudden as unwelcome. It was only on Fri-
day last that Chief Justice Pennaather, in charging th
grand jury, congratulated them on the extreme tran-
q.iillity of the district, which presented so excellent an
example to some neighbouring counties.

THE FATAL CONFLICT AT BALLINHASSIG.

The Mayor of Cork, acting on a requisition, has con-
vened a meeting of the citizens, in order to express to
her Majesty's Government their opinions regarding the
recent inquest on the bodies of seven persons killed by
the police at the fair of Ballinhassig. The requisition is
worded very strongly, and the Mayor refrains from com-
mitting himself with the opinions of the requisitionists.
