The Hiberna has arrived after very fine
run O: less than thirteen days from Liverpool
The weather during the week previous to
her sailing was very much unsettled. There
has been much rain, but change Of wind
hrough; clear weather. The harvest during
this period has beer completely gathered in
For the next fortnight autumn sowing will be
.eneral.
The Potato cropin Scotland is good. In
Ireland it falls immensely short: Ihe Oat crop.
/ however, in that country, had been good.
The markets generally partake of the same
want of spirit which prevailed in England at
last advices. Speculation had been stopped
entirely, and the large supplies OF Grain pour
ing in from the Baltic and other ports, had ef
fectuaIIy kept down prices.
The Choiera.-The alarm throughout Eng
land, which had been created by the presence
of the Cholera in London and Edinburgh, had
sensbIy decreased Thirty additional cases
were reported in London, but the general
health OF the city is better this year than ordi-
nariIy There were 900 deaths last week, for
the average against 1854 during the same pc
Rod in former years.
In Manchester and Liverpool there have
been no cases of Cholera. Edinburgh was
visited with more severity than other places,
while Leth had escaped altogether 1t had
made its appearance at the little village of New
Haven, where it was detected in malignant
form. In that quarter the Government has
done away with quarantine regulations as un-
necessary; even in cases where deaths have
occurred by the Cholera from vessels coming
in from Continental ports.
Ireldnd-The rumor regarding the execu-
ton of OBrien turns out to be incorrect, and
he is still in prison. The Lord Lieutenant, in
his reply 10 the deputation Of the inhabitants
of Dublin, refused direct answer to their me-
mortal, beyond the assurance that weight will
be e iven to the recommendation Of the jury
which tried him.
A the formalities for bringing a writ of er-
ror have been complied with by his legal ad-
visers, but the official privilege of refusing the
certificate with which the Attorney General is
invested will not be exercised until that officer
returns to Dublin.
O'Donehue has been found guilty, but re-
commended TO mercy in consequence of having
withdrawn himself from his associates previ-
Gus 10 the attacks. Thomas Meagher's
trial commenced on Monday, and the interest
which had subsidized at Clonmel, has now re-
vyed.
The Catholic Prelates at Dublin have pass
ed certain resolutions highly important AS EN-.

government to employ all the funds at its dis
posal, and all its influence for the immediate
relief of the poor, as well as TO effect an equ
table adjustment of relations between landlord
, and tenant, to stimulate an outlay OF capital
give employ TO able bodied men, and increase
the products of the soil.
