From the Baltimore Sun.

The esteamer Great Western arrived at her dock
in New York, at ten o'clock last night from Liv.
crpool, bringing dates TO the 3lst ult, twelve days
lalcr than those brought by the Britannia.
She took out the news of the capture Of Mon.
terey by the American forces under Gen. TAYLOR,
which caused no liule excitement.
FooD RIoTs IN lRELAND.-Ireland seems to be
in deplorabIe condition. Tipperary is almost
in a state Of insurrection. A few days since it
was our painful duty to notice the murder of
man named Gleeson, in that riding. Another
man named Williams has shared the same fate.
The town of Templemore was the scene Of three
fold riots on Monday, by mob varying in num-
bers from one TO five hundred men. The worst
feature in this transaction is, that several of the
persons engaged in it nigh haveh had employment
though TO a very limited extent, on public works,
but they were prevented from avaiing themselves
of it by intimidation.
The rage for the possession Of fire arms is in
creasing daily. An attack upon the Rev. DR..
Holmes, whilst fishing on Saturday last by an
armed gang, eighteen in NUMBER was in some
measure successful.
On the evening of the same day the house of
a farmer in the parish of Oringlass was burglari.
ously entered by three rufliOns supplied with pis-
tolls, who carried of GlO 6s. Nor have the de-
predators spared even their own clergy. There.
sidence Of the Rev. Dr. Moreland, p P, Of Cas-
tledown ARA, was visited on Friday last by
lawess party, which deliberately forced his keys
from his pockets, unlocked his desk, and seized
on FL, with which they decamped.
In the southern division Lord Donnemore's a.
ropt hos hoo, robko1 ,c H7OO -, ,bo o,a,, H.,
on the mail coach road, and within less than a
mile of the popuous town Of Clonmell. BY far
the greatest portion of Munster presents at this
moment the appearance Of sumberng volcano.
DIFFICULTIES OF THE MINIsTRY.-Lord John
Russell and Lord Couenham at the cabinet coun-
Gil on Wednesday, urged earnestly the conslu-
tional necessity of an early session Of Parliament,
before Christmas, notonly TO obtain an act of in
demnity for Lord Bessborough's extension Of the
labor-rate act, but also TO obtain parliamentary
sanction for the reduction Of the As. duty on i'm.
ported grain. The council broke up without
coming 10 any definite resolution.
At meeting of the Ministers on Thursday, the
sub ject was resumed, and on this latter occasion
the opponents of an early session had the advan.
tage Of Mr.. Bancrofi's arrival from the United
States with the intelligence that the supplies o
grain collected in the American ports for exporta
ton is so ample as TO render it extremely proba
bic that the supply was equal TO any demand tha
could be made, consequently this removed the
necessity for The reduction of the duty thus re-
lieving the Ministers from the most important mo-
tive for calling an early session. Another steE
in what he is said 10 call the administration of d
despotism.
The objections 10 an early session have beer
most anxiously pressed by the Irish Secretary
and other ministers connected with the govern
ment of Ireland, and with some show Of reason
they allege that an early session must embrc i
Them with Mr.. O'ConncII and his adherents, anC
thus deprive The cabinet of lis principal support
1t is not only on this side of Ireland that there arC
such difficulties threatening the administration a
heassembling Parliament, whether early orlate
We have the testimony of the Mill OwnerS
Journal TO the fact that feeling Of the necessity
of reducing produce and wages between thirty
and forty per cent, for such must be the effect o.
working four days instead of ix,ismpidly sprea
ding and becoming almost universal. This sor
Gus reduction in the amount of wages contempo
raneous with a steady advance in the prices o.
the necessNres of life is not calculated 10 inlust
an agreeable temper into the proceedings Of the
popular branch Of the Legislature.
A third objection 10 an early session may come
from Lord Palmerslon, who may not be desirous
of explaining the process by which he has man
aged 10 give the French Government and people
a triumph.
