IRELAND.  DUBLIN, AUG. 26. Something like a reign of terror still prevails in Tipperary. Mr. William Scully, brother of the member for the county of Cork, travels about on business accompanied by two armed policemen, who keep a sharp 100k-out at cross roads, short turns, and in the neighbourhood of walls and hedges. Ho always carries arms, and takes care that the road he is to take is not known. He mistrusts every one, even the postman who is obliged to Place Mr. Scully's letters and papers on the ground before be comes within pistol-shot. It has been suggested that it would be more pradent for this gentleman to change his residence than to be exposed to such tremendous risks. It will not be easy to evade the persevering, patient hatred of his enemies ; but it sometimes happens, even in Ireland, that " threatened people live long." A medical gentleman residing in Carrick-on-Suir has been threatened because, on being summoned, he gave evidence at the inquest on the remains of Michael Maguire, who was murdered for taking a farm from which another man had been evicted. The medical gentleman marked out for assassination because he told the truth on his oath is said to be remarkably humane, giving his time and medical skill gratuitously for the relief of the poor. Thus the best benefactors of the people are doomed by this horrid system of assassination. All the landlords in the Glen of Aberlow have received notice, by a placard posted on the gate of Captain George Massey Dawson, of New Forest. Hayes, son of the notorious Michael, has had the audacity to send a memorial to the Lord-Lieutenant, praying that be may be released froth prison, on the false pretence that he is in a dangerous state of health. It is supposed that his object in malingering was to get out of prison in order to assist his father to evade the police. In the same neighbourhood a man was 'charged with having in his posses. sion a " pike" of the true Mitchell stamp, said to be a relic of '4B, which he kept "for the protection of his kitchen garden." He was deprived of the weapon, but, in consequence of the good character he received, the magistrates did not punish him farther. In the county of Longford the constabulary have collected 50 stand of arms from the people, some of them in fine condition. They consisted of guns, pistols, swords, and bayonets. In the course of their search for arms they found a set of mail bags lost so far back as October, 1859, and which contained money to the amount of £lOO. They were found in the house of a farmer named Murphy, and they are in a good state of preservation. There is a set of young women in the South Dublin Union workhouse who are incorrigible savages. They have been imprisoned several times for outrages, and nothing seems capable of reclaiming them. On Sunday night the mistress of the probationary ward locked up. the girls es usual in their dormitory at the regular hour, 7 o'clock, when there was no sign of anything wrong. Between 10 and 11 o'clock they piled up the beds and bedding, set fire to them, and, having escaped through a window, they looked on from the yard at the operation of the flames. Property to the amount of £4O was destroyed before the fire was discovered, and had it not been extinguished in time a number of lives would have been lost. They confessed the crime, and seemed to exult in it with the most brazen impudence. It is surely an abuse of the poor-house system to be pampering such persons in idleness and vice
