awaiting the steamers arrival. II is a short drive
from the wharf TO the hotels, about three quarters

pleasing effect upon the mind.
There are two splendid hotels here, fitted up
with every comfort and convenience, for the ac-
commodaton of the families and visers that resort

They are laying out the track of railroad from

2 IRELAND-LiuerpooI, Wednesday Morning, Dec.
20-As the steamship Washington sails from South
ampton this afternoon, for New York, we deem 1t
our duty to transmit by her brief summary OF the
news from the sister country.
Of the trial of Mr.. Duffy, little can be known,
seeing that the Judges have ordered that none OF
the proceedings shall be reported until after the
close of the trial. This, matter OF course, has
caused-and not unreasonably, too-great annoy
ance and offence on the part of the propretors OF
public journals Had Mr. Justice Perrin advanced
a single valid reason for the unusual, and, we may
add Unconstitutional, attempt to gag the press OF
Ireland, would perhaps have been better received,
but this he has not done, and, consequently, much
Indignation is felt at his arbitrary conduct From
the information which has reached us, we learn
that on Saturday the Court was occupied with
discussion on the motion of MIR. Butt to quash the
indictment found al the present City Commission.
The point on which their lordshps intimated they
would give Judgement was whether the indictment
in the city ought not to be quashed, on the ground
that there is another Indictment existing against
Mr.. Duffy in the county, which indictment is yet
undisposed of.
The Judges since decided against Mr.. Duffy's OBJ
ections, and refused application 10 rescind the
order prohibiting publication.
