An application made on Thursday morning 10
the Clerk Of the Crown, by Mr.. Caniye solicitor OF
Mr.. Barrett, to receive informaiions sustain

but that functionary dec ined to take them Abouto
O'clock when Judge Burton had concluded his charge
to the Grand Jury, application was made to his
iordship the part of Mr.. Barrett, to have The IN
formations sworn against the Government Reporter,
and statement made that they had been previously
rendered to the Clerk Of the Crown and refused by

Special Express from Dublin \!
Friday Night.
We have, this morning, received intelligence from
Dublin, by Special Express, bringing us the news up
to the latest possible hour last night The Grand
Jury has been occupied the whole Of the day in read
ing the indictments which covered the enormous
space of thrty-three skins Of parchment This enor-
mously wordy affair had prevented the Grand Jury
from examining any witnesses, although large num-
Der in attendance. 1t is expected that The pro-
ceedngs of the Grand Jury, in the OConnell trials,
will be retarded until Monday next; certainly the
bills cannot be returned before the evening of this
day, and if hardly possible that the bills can be
found even SO soon.

seems to be some legal doubt to the possibility of
traversng in these The greatest possible in

would have been eagerly given to obtain admission
I to the court
The Information Of Barrett of the Pilot Drs4Gray,
&c., have been received by order of the Chief Jus
ticc, in the Of Mr.. Bond Hughes, charged with
perjury 1t is quite obvious that the Repeal party
now on the whole pleased with the charge of Judge
Burton.
0'Connell has issued Address 10 the people
of Ireland, breathing dauntless spirit AT meet
ing in ST. Audeon's Ward, on Sunday, he made the
following declaration:
"Give me six months of perfect peace, and Illg give
you my head on block, if at the end of that time
you have not Parliament in College Green!"
Repeal meetings have been held in different wards
Of Dublin, and resolutions passed in support of Mr..
OConnell At one Of these, in the Post Office Ward,
on Saturday, he gave explanation respecting what
he had said on the previous Monday about Federal
Parliament.
Two companies of Artillery and the First Royal
Dragons have arrived in Dublin.
The Limerick papers Of Friday mention that on
the previous night, between six and O'Clock, the
surrounding country bazed with fires lighted stimuli
taneously, with surprising exactness. 1t appeared
that these fires spread to the counties of Cork, Tip
perary, and Clare, by ten O'Clock. In several in
the fires burning in The public 70 ads, and
torches seen to be borne along by the people in
all directions.
The honorable and learned gentleman, it is stated
intends TO enter into general review of the British
policy in Ireland especially in regard to the Legis-
latve Union, in order to exhibit the causes Of the
Repeal movement, out of which those State prosecu-
tons have arisen. Mr.. O'Connel's address to the
jury alone will, probably, occupy two days.
Chief Justice Pennef father is to preside.
Subsequently is stated by the Cork Reporter that
the fires were IN honor of Mr. Smith O'Bren's return
from the Continent, and his accession to Repeal,
which was already understood throughout the
try!
1t appears quite certain that Mr.. O'Conne has de-
termined to defend himself and that his decision on
this point was communicated to the counsel for the
defendants, who held consultation at the residence
of Mr.. O'Conne in Merton square, on Thursday
last
Reports gain ground in Dublin that Sir Robert
Peel contemplates some comprehensive policy in re-
spect to Irish grievances.
The next steamer from England will probably bring
out the result of the State prosecutions 1t is said
the short hand-wrter, Hughes, the Government re-
porter and chief Witness so hoaxed by the Irish
that his evidence may involve the whole proceedings
in ridicule.
