Mr.. Doherrv was arrested in Casbel on
Monday, and Mr.. Meagher in Waterford on
Tuesday, on charges of sedilion. and will
be tried at the present assizes IN Tipperary
and Limerick. Mr.. Meagher's apprehension
caused the utmost excitement in Waterford.
The chapel bells were rung; thousands OF
conlederates assembled, and it required all
the authority and influence of the gifted and
chivalrous captive aided by the Catholic
clergymen to prevent the people from falling
upon the military and police. As it was,
they stoned the authorities and cut off one
body of the troops from the other. They
created formidable barricade, which i'm
peded the progress of the escort, and for
miles harrassed and hunted the procession,
but happily no life was lost. During the
week, also, Mr.. Darcy niece and Mr..
Hay wood were also arrested for sedition,
but the bills were thrown out by the Wick
low grand jury on Thursday.
The excitement not only in Dublin, but
throughout Ireland, is everywhere intense.
and the note of preparation is everywhere
sounded. The Flag of revolution has ex-
tended to England The united repealers
and chartis,s are rapidly organizing and
arming. The Nation, notwithstanding its
proclamation has appeared this morning.
CHOLERA IN RUSSIA.
The cholera appears to rage with great
intensity at Moscow. From the 18th to the
18th of June there were 1924 new cases.
and 92S deaths. In the last named day, no,
less than 327 persons were seized with this
dreadful malady, and 153 others died. The
cholera is gaining ground a. Kasan, Nina,
Novogorod, Kostoma, Jarslaw, Wologer,
Smolensko, Toula, and Kima. 1t has also
made its appearance in Pensa, Tarkow, Olo-
nets, Wlska and Ora.
FRANCE.
Another plot has been discovered in Pa.
ris. correspondent Of the London Globe
and the workmen of the Aleliers Na,ionaux,
and the other turbulent workmen had re-
solved to make another attempt on the 10TH,
the day originally fixed upon for the five
sous banquet. 1t is now known that this
was merely pretext for getting together an
immense body, most Of whom was to carry
arms secreted under their blouses, whilst
others were on the first sequel of outbreak
to have proceeded to the depots of the mus
kets and ammunition, which were to have
been made in the quarter three or four days
before the intended meeting. 1t is said,
now, that such of the projectors of this plot
that have not been captured for the part they
took in the late instruction, have for the
last fortnight, been organizing their forces
for final and deliberate struggle. Fortu-
nately, however the entire plot has been dis
covered by the government. The head
quarters of the insurgents this time was to
have been the Place des Males Herdes, at
the back of the church of the Madeline !;
and the pillage of the houses in this quarter
was part of the plan. The insurgents were
to arrive from the outer boulevards, where,
notwithstanding the searches that had been
made since the insurrection in June, they
had still all immense number of muskets Sc
cre,ed, more than 1900 hundred were found
in the Faxborg Mont Matre, and seizure of
muskets and powder was made in the quar-
ter of Madeleine the government is in pos
session of the whole detail of the plot, and
many Of the intended chiefs have been ar
rested. We can have no uneasness, there
fore, as to the result of the minister of the
interior. M. Senard, who is man of great
probi.y and energy, has already given no.
