ireland wonld proceed forthwith to enforce the provis- , ons of the act.

The Government have determined upon a considera- ble number of arrests, and it is stated that some persons not heretofore openly connected with the revolutionary movement are to be taken up. It is said that four clerks have been occupied in making out the warrants, which awaited the arrival of the act authorising the Lord Lieutenant to take the necessary steps.

At this hour (half-past four o’clock) the Attorney Ge- neral ,and the Solicitor General are at the Castile, and it has been arranged that the warrants are to be issued this afternoon. Mr. S. O’Brien, and several other lead- ers, now organising the clubs throughout the country, are to be taken into custody to-night; and, if the at- tempt to arrest them should not Jead to an outbreak, they will be brought up to Dublin to-morrow.

‘ Thre accounts from the south this morning are really most alarming. ‘The Confederate leaders contemplate an insurrection; and, indeed, already they have gone little short of an actual outbreak. The deepest anxiety and apprehension prevails amongst the gentry. From various counties gentlemen have come up to make re- presentations to the Government on the state of their districts, and requiring arms for their tenantry to defend their families and property against any insurgent move- ments. Lord Farnham from Cavan, and magistrates trom Wicklow, Meath, and other counties, have been in attendance at the Castle.

Troops are constantly arriving fram England and departing for the south, where the danger is most press- ing. Atone o'clock to-day a regiment of cavalry re- ceived a sudden order for Kilkenny.

A troop of the 8th hussars, en rowfe from Cork to Newbridge, has been ordered to halt at Kilkenny, where it is to be stationed for the present.

Four companies of 89th, which landed this morning from England, marched direct for Kilkenny. The re- mainder of the regiment on its arrival here will proceed to the same destination.

At an early hour this morning two troops of the 17th lancers, with two pieces of ordnance, left town for Dun- shaughlin, county of Meath, where disturbances are apprehended.

At the Privy Council held in Dublin Castle, on the 22d inst, the following additional districts were pro- claimed. The act took effect on the 25th :—1 County Kilkenny. 2. County of the city of Kilkenny. 3. County of Meath. 4. The baronies of Decies within Drum, Decies without Drum, and Coshmere and Coshbridge, in the county of Waterford. 5. Barony of Kerricurrehy, Kinsale, Courcies, Kinameaky, Barretts North, Barretts South, Barrymore, Kinnatallow, Emokelly, East Mus- kerry, East Carberry, and [bane and Barryroe, in the county of Cork.

The suspénsion of the Habeas Corpus Act has excited Clon mel to an unwonted degree. On hearing the news yesterday, the John Mitchel, the ‘crack’ club of Tip- perary, was suddenly called to council. The clergy endeavoured to deprecate the infatuated from dangerous courses. Lectures were delivered from the altar at the several masses, though, I believe, with little effect. 1 have heard that Dean Burke was hooted in the chapel when commencing to address words of peace to the deluded.

RatHKkeaie.-—A correspondent informs us, ‘that Rathkeale is in the greatest commotion by the appear- ance of the two policemen who swore the information against Thomas i". Meagher. Notasecond day passes that placards of a threatening character are not exhi- bited. One lately appeared having a coffim marked on it; another was an efligy with a pike stuck in the body; a third contained a narrative of their career; a fourth was a ballad reciting their literary qualifications, and setting forth at some length, their cleverness as ‘ Go- vernment Reporters.’”” Within the past few days, how- ever, one of these two obnoxieus policemen has been sent to another station. Mr, Smith, the sub-inspector, went to the club-room on Sunday to take the names of the members. He was asked if he came for the purpose of becoming a member, to which he replied in the nega- tive. He was then told that if he would subscribe to the rules, and pay the usual entrance money, he would be received ; but if not, he should withdraw. In reply to inquiries from Mr. Smith, he was informed that the strength of the club was 500, and that in the course of two days it would be over 600 strong: and that the members consisted of gentlemen, farmers, mechanics, and labourers. Mr. Smith then withdrew. Same evening the police attended by his directions outside the club-room, aud took down the names of those that entered. ‘The people are arming rapidly.

Carrack-on-Suix.—We saw a letter this day from Carrick, in which it is stated that among other extensive preparations on the part of the people in that town, twelve anvils ring night and day with the sound of the pike, in defiance of all ‘legal consequences,’ and in the presence of police and military.

Kinxenny.— Messrs, O’Brien, Meacaer, anv Dit- ton.—On Sunday evening these gentlemen arrived, rather unexpectedly, in Kilkenny; but upon the news of their visit spreading, dense crowds immediately blocked up the entire of William-street. Mr. O’Brien on presenting himself on the balcony of the Citizen’s Club, was received with the utmost enthusiasm, and addressed the multitude at considerable length, stating his readiness to make every sacrifice for Ireland, pro- vided that the people would come forward in large masses to assist their friends in carrying out their views. He stated that he was not then prepared to explain to

Shortly after four o'clock this afternoon the printing- office of the Valion, at Sackville-plaee, was visited by the police, who arrested all the printers therein, eleven in number, and brought them before the magistrates’ at. Henry-street Police-office, when they were remanded, to appear to-morrow (Saturday) at twelve o’tlock. The publishing office in D’Olier-street, was about the same time taken possession of by the police, who seized every- thing remaining on the premises, books, paper,s &¢.

In consequence of Smith O’Brien’s proceedings at Mullinahone, where a large meeting was lately held by Doheny, Government have issued orders for the forma-~ tion of a camp there, as well as at Pilltown, (already formed,) near the seat of the Earl of Besborough.

Our latest accounts from Ireland state that arrests for training and drilling had takemplace at Drogheda; that it was rumoured that Smith O’Brien had been captured ; and that the police had made a search for arms in 43 houses at the same instant of time.

POLITICAL EXCITEMENT IN LIVERPOOL.

During the past week Liverpool has been;in a state of great excitement, consequent upon the present aspect of political affairs in Ireland, and the numerous body of Repealers and Confederates who reside here. Their designs have caused the loca! authorities to set about preparing for any outbreak, should such be attempted.

During the week the Mayor and magistrates have been actively engaged in swearing in special constables, and this body now numbers 20,000.

TRADE AND COMMERUE IN. ENGLAND.

The progress of trade and commerce during the past week (says the Liverpool European Times of the 20th ult.), has been greatly retarded by the extreme uneasi- ness which is felt respecting the state of affairs in Ire- land. The markets for Colonial produce have there- fore been less active, with the exception of Sugar, which has been in fair demand. he Corn trade has been active, and prices rather higher. Manufacture:! goods are less inquired for for heme use. The Money market is easy, and the rates of interest remain at the figure last quoted.

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. The news from France is reported to be satisfactory. General tranquility prevails. “Parties in the Frenci: capital,” says the Times, “are gradually falling into their natural order.”

Respecting the war between Denmark and the Ger- manic Confederation, we learn that, owing to the ree. luctance of General Wrangel to sign the armistice, » temporary truce has been concluded for three days.

The war between Italy and Austria is carried on with variable success. ‘The Austrians have entered Ferrara, levied considerable supplies, and then again withdrew from the city. By the most recent accounts from the royal camp all the communications betweee Mantna, Verona and Legnago are completely interrupted.
