DUBLIN, June LITTLE trial Of
IIcnian Walsh and a number of COM
panions, which has been in process
before a commission in session at
Limerick, has resulted in the con
viction Of all accused.
1t is supposed that the Fenians who
landed and were captured a short
time ago, mgaron, and were suisse
quently taken to Waterford and
and confined in Jail there, this week
have been undergoing preliminary
examination and the testimony
given so far shows that four of them
were officers in the Federal army
during the rebellion.
1t has already been reported that
Corydon, who was the chief witness
against the Feniams has been rough
Iy handled by mob.
Yesterday, while the prisoners
were being conducted from the
courthouse to the jail, in charge Of
a strong police force, a crowd OF
their friends gathered from all parts
OF tile city and made a fierce attack
on the guard with the intention of
cfircting rescue \ fight enSued,
during which some thirty of the
l,olica escort we're injured, and one
of the attacking party was killed
and several are known to have been
wounded by the fire Of the guard
The latter made a stout defense, and
succeeded in safely depositing their
their prisoners in the city prison,
when the mob dispersed.
