Continues tranquil. The chief leaders
of the Confederates are now either in pris on
or under prosecution by tile Government,
for sedilion or other msdemeanofs. The

The law, which The government seems now
at length resolved vigorously TO enforce.-
But Ireland is ina most depIorabe condition,
and every moment thai passes is expected 10
be The signal for conflict too sanguinary and
terrific to contemplate.
The Lord Lieutenant, who had pre-arran
ged 10 make his annual visit to England at
this season Of the year, the usual commission
having been issued for that purpose, has
found il necessary TO defer his departure, and
we fear tibet the threats so long and so per
seyeringly hurled against the Government
are at the point vi being carried into execu
zion.
| Whether the rumor be correct which has
reached us, that the Government, has been
appraised of some widely spread Instruction
AIRY movement, we cannot vouch; but certain
il is, under The provision Of The new law, the
following places have been proclaimed; the
county aud city of Dublin, the city, and The
following PORTIONS of the county OF COX

of Drogheda.
The Rev. MIR. Byrne, having been arrested
at Carrick- on-Suir, on charge OF sedltlon. has
been rescued from prison BY the people, who
released all the prisoners who were confined
in the same bridewell.
1t is stated. also, by another account, tina
some of the club leaders having been arrested
:, two gentlemen went before the magistrate ant
told him the country was rising; and that if h
wished TO avoid rebellion. he had better liber
ate the prisoners, otherwise, in twenty min
utes, force would arrive in Carrlck sufficien
to annihilate the garrison. The prisoners
were released, and thus, for the moment, blood
shed spared.
These events coupled with the exciting pro
ceedings of the Inherent Confederate leaders
cannot fail to produce their natural results
Mr.. Meagher and MIR. Dohenv appear TO b.
harranguing mutitudes, of 30, 900 persons at q
I lime, al midnight; and il is easy TO conceive
what results must flow from the inhamatorl
language held on these occasions.
1t is idle to suppose that all this training
and drilling and club confederacy mean moth
ing. 1t is the clear intention OF many OF then
80 have brush with the authorities, regard
less of the bloodshed that will ensue.
! The latest advices from Ireland represent at
fairs in threatened state. Messrs. J. 5. Va
Ran. J. w. Bourge, and J. O'Bren have beer
arrested at Cork for seditIon and baied. 4
body of the constabulary has been shipped
from Dublin for Waterford, where the danger
seems most imminent
The clergy have become alarmed for the safe
| ty of their flocks, and are denouncing publicly
| the clubs, and warning the people against Ell
rolling themselves as members.
| Orders have been received from the Com
mander-in- chiefs office, to all officers belong
ing to regiments in Ire land, on leave of bsence
in London, TO repair Immediately to rejoin their
respective regiments quartered IN that coun-
try.
There has been 'OruSn at CdlElCk-on- oulI
In Kilkenny, in consequence OF a report
which had no foundation, OF the issue OF war
rant for the arrest of DR.. Cane, d magistrate.
and the leader of the Confederates IN that quar-
ter the populace made formidable demonsira-
ton, and barricades erected in the town.
The Tipperary Vindicator gives an account
of the arrest OF some persons at Templemore,
charged with drilling and training.
Lord John Russell, on the 2Ist ult., said
amid the cheering of the house, 81 rise to give
notice that shall propose, at IL O'Clock to-
morrow, to ask for leave to bring in bill to
empower the Lord Lieutenat or other COVER
nors of Ireland to apprehend and detain, until
the LIST day of March, 1919, such persons as he
or thew shall suspect of reasonable designs
against her majesty's crown and government.
RUSSIA.
Russia is still suffer ing from the oh olera III
almost every part of the western frontier.
1t is supposed that the occupation OF the
Moldavian provinces is not an aggressive act.
Moldavia and Wallachia are both under the
protectorate of Russia, at least by the treaty
of AdrianopIe she claims them; and II is pro-
bable that at present the Empor)r OF Russia
only seeks TO stave off the mischief OF propa-
gandism from his own dominion.
SPAIN.
In Spain the Cabrera instruction had reach

From Portugal there is little more than
rumors of change OF ministry.
