JAMES CAREY'S BANISHMENT. The story cf James Carey's banishment will perhaps never become fully known; but such par!Undue as leave leaked out are sufficien,ly interesting for publication. It is well known, says the Dublin correspondent of the Daily News, that the Government found great difficulty in getting rid of Carey. Some doubts are entertained as to whether all Carey's letters to Judge Mortis about the Trieity Wend election petition, and the letter to the Town Clerk requesting that the notices of the meetings of the Corporations should be sent to him, though undoubtedly genuine in the Betide of haviug been written by Carey, were not writtoi by him st the instigation of others, in order to throw the Fenian party off the ecent, and render their sleets to trace his movements on leaving the prison futile. But there can be no doubt that he gave trouble to the Government in iespect of his persiateut demand for a written pardon, and his equally persistent claim for a money reward for his bervices as an informer. Carey alro claimed that be should have protection whether he left the country or remained in it. None of those demends were complied with. It wee decided not to give him a written pardon and ho le thus techeically still in the position of a ino who may be tried fur his life. Lord Spacer was equally firm in refusing to iecognise Carey's claim to any portion of the reward, and the result is test the arch informer has gone to a foreign shore wee some means of his own, but without these being in any way suppletn. toted by public money. C4ree was not entitled to any reward. He one emu forward when he could not save his own neck without doing so. He caved his neck, and that was all he was entitled to. Some tv, eks ago the preliminary steps were taken of separatiee the brothers Carey in gaol, and by at opping all viet• '0 them conveying the impression that they bed lift the country, r, at all events, that they had been removed from Kilmainham Gaol. On the night of Monday, July 2, an officer hign in the service of the Dublin detective service presented himself at, the prison after lock-up hours, and when all the officers except the governor and deputy-governot. bed disappeared, and produced an order for tee delivery over to him of James Carey. The order was complied with, and Carey and the detective officer took their places in a cab which was waiting for them ' outside, and drove into the city. This done, Carey was obviously in the power of the officer, and was compelled to submit to his terms, which ware that he should leave the country and go greed, his passage being paid to his destinatiom but further assistance whatever being given to bid. Carey demurred strongly to these term, but be was given the alternative of accepting them, er being left unprotected in the streets of Debbie Thus driven to bay he chose the first mentioned alternative. He was conveyed the same night to Kingstown in the same cab in which he had been brought from Kilmainham. He slept on board the steamer, and accompanied by a detective, crossed to Holyhead, and thenee to Lemke, whither his family had been already removed in detaoliments , along with other informers and their fames, notably Robt. Farrell, to whose disclosures in the first instance the discovery of the perpetrators of the Park murders may be said to be due. So well managed were the entire arrangements that the detective who accompanied Carey on board the steamer which was to convey him to his destieation, and who handed him his passage warrant enclose,d in a sealed envelope, was not aware of Carey s destination. That destination, it can only be see, is in some part of the eastern hemisphere. No more definite conjecture Can be formed, as the steamer is one of a line which La' numerous ports f call, anyone of which may be the port of debarkation for James Carey.
