LIMERICK.
Limerick, Wednesday Morning. The
mysterious reports of an intended general
rising Of Fenians last night that were in
general circulation here yesterday, became
more connected and positive during the
evening, and general apprehension seemed
to exist A fire broke out in a corn store
in Old Francis street about eight O'Clock,
and ragged with great ferceness till the
building was destroyed. Great crowds
gathered to the spot, and remarkable
apathy seemed to prevail on the part OF
great numbers of the crowd. Several fire
engines were brought out and worked, but
no military or police were sent, the whole
force being under arms and at their posts,
prepared to act for the Suppression of dis
turbances, should any arise The fire may
be said to have burned. itself out. While
this fire was the centre Of attraction and the
main streets were quite deserted, the shop
ct MIR. Delany, gunsmith, Rutland street,
was entered by some parties at present I'M
known, and as many as 25 stand of arms
were carried off, along with pistols and pow
der horns
The proprietor had been out spending
the evening, and on his return he found his
whole stock, cleaned out. The matter was
then reported to the police, and county In
spector Hill and party of armed constabu-
larry visited the place. They subsequently
went round to the various gunsmith pawn
brokers. &C., and took up all arms in those
places, which were removed to the barracks
A pretty strong impression prevails that the
fire above referred to was a mere ruse to
draw out the police and military with
view to some preconcerted movement of
aggression, and the cool robbery at Delany's
only serves to strengthenit. All telegraphic
communication from Limerick is suspended,
owing, it is believed, to a wholesale
onslaught upon the wires, and
the up night mail from Cork did not arrive
as usual with the dublin and Waterford
trains, at l:30 a. M, and it is reported that
ithad not arrived at the Limerick Junction
up to late hour this morning.
" ednesday Night.-It is reported that
the trains cannot get on to Cork. Great
excitement has prevailed here all day
Rising apprehended to night. Admirable
precautions have been taken by the author
tiles. Attacks upon the police barracks at
kIiwalock, Ardagh, ETC., reported and
confirmed. A regular raid has been made
in County Glare and Limerick last night
for arms, and everything in the shape of
weapon was carried off by the Fenians.
The rebels at Kilmaslock hoisted the green
flag and wore uniforms. They had Greek
fire, and were commanded by Captain
Dunno. Cahirconiish, at an early hour
this morning impressing men, and seizing
arms on their way The coast guard station
at kilbena, near Kilrush, attacked, and
arms taken. Shots exchanged, and two
insurgents wounded. This party then
marched towards kilrush, and were pur-
sued by Kilkee constabulary. The result is
unknown. The police at Kilmallock held
out four hours, when reinforcements from
Kilinane, under Inspector Milling, arrived
and took the insurgents in flank. The
rebels fled after determined fight. Three
rebels were killed and one policeman
wounded. A number Of pixies, pistols and
hnlcts will n.her trnnhics were takan
