IRELAND, : “PWEEN THE REBELS AND THE CON: STABULARY a TEN KILLED AND UPWARDS OF FORTY WOUNDED. Dusum, Monpay Morstxe.—The intelligence brought to town this morning by the early train is painful, but it can hardly be seid unexpected, The accounts. yesterday morning mentioned that Mr. ‘Trant and his patty were shut up if a slated house at an open space neat Ballingarry; that Mr. Smith O’Brien with his party of rebels had summoned him to surrender, and thata collision was apprehended, as the military were fast closing on the locality. The following account from the special correspondent of the Freeman’s Journal, gives. the fullest particulars known here :— Kitxenny, Sunday Night. Early on Saturday morning Sub-Inspector T'rant, of the Callan station, county Kilkenny, with between forty and fifty men under his command, proceeded to the neighbourhood of Ballingarry, on the borders of the county Tipperary, and twelve miles from the city of Kilkenny, to assist in-arresting Smith O’Brien, who it was reported was somewhere in the mountains of that locality, sufrounded by a large body of armed peasantry. Some time afterwards a mounted policeman, constable Carroll, was dispatched from the Maudlin street station, Kilkenny, witha dispatch for Sub-Inspector Trant. Carroll rode.on until he came to a part cf the country between Ballingarty and a place called the Commens, when he heard several shets fired, and was soon after- wards taken. prisoner by armed country people. Some of them were for shooting him, saying as | have been informed, ‘If this man gets back he will hang us all, but others. declared they would not take Carroll’s life. I.should remark that the constable was in coloured clothes. He was then brought into the presence of Smith O’Brien, who, it appears, wore a cap with a peak and silver band, and carried a stick in his- hand. Mr. O’Brien addressing Carroll firmly, said, ‘ you are one of, the mounted police” ‘The constable at once replied that he was, being aware that he was known to persons inthe neighbourhood. Mr, O’Brien then, I am informed, turned round and asked the people about him would he give himself up? bat they not having advised iim to such a step, he walked-about for some time, and then inounted the constable’s. horse and rode away. Carroll was detained: for some tive afterwards in the custody of four men. During this period Sub-Inspector Trant and his.men. were shut up in a house to which they had; retreated, strtounded by country people, on whom, they fired from the windows.. After a lapse of two or three heurs Carroll was left in charge of one man, and this one allowed the constable to take his departure. In coming along the road, on his way. back to Kilkenny, Carroll encountered Mr. O'Brien, who had changed his dress; now wearing a hat and on. horseback. Mr. O’Brien. stopped him. The constable, I am told, in- formed Mr. O*Brien that he had no. arms, remonstrated with him, and teld him it wag foolish to think of holding out against ‘the force that would be brought against him, especially. as the priests were exhorting the people not to. join in: tesisting the authorities. Mr. O’Brien seemed to think deeply on what the constable had said ~-observed that fog twenty years he had been trying te serve bis country, aid that ifthe people did not stand by hunhe might as well give tp. Shortly afterwards. he parted, Carroll giving him his stick, and rode off by himself, On the return of the constable to Kilkeany, orders were given tothe mititary and police to march to Mr. Trant’s. assistance ; and at half-past eight in the evening the city was thrown into an awful state of ex- citemeént by the moving onwards towards. Ballingarry ofa.mest formidable looking force., In the van.was.a, troop of the 4th.Light Dragoons; then followed a large boty of pelice, then.came. about.300 infantry soldiers, THE EXAMINER. The last accounts from Ballingarry state that the| military were concentrating on that point from all the surrounding districts, [From the Dublin Freeman’s Jowrnal.] Haur-past 4 o’CLOCK, P. M. The half-past 10 o’clock and afternoon trains of this day have arrived without bringing any fresh intelligence of a decided nature relative to the present position of Mr. Smith O’Brien or the operations of the military force sent down to enforce his arrest. Various rumours are in circulation, but none of them have been sufficiently authenticated to warrant giving them publication. The influx of passengers from the neighbourhoods of Kil- kenny, Roscrea, ‘'hurles, and the ad jacent towns, con- tinues unabated. The gentry of these localities and their families are arriving in town by each train. All, however, state that at present everything is quiet im the country, and that, save the collision between the pea- santry and police at Ballingarry on Saturday, no distur- bance whatever has taken place. The clergy are spoken of as being actively engaged in going amongst the people, and using the whole weight of their authority and inflttence with their flocks to prevent them from joining in any movement which may bring them within the power of the law. KILKtNNy, Tuesday night, 9 o’clock. Up to this hour it is not known where Smith O’Brien is at present. In my despatch of Sunday night I in- formed you that Sub-Inspector Trant and his party of police, retired from the house in which they had been surrounded, and reached their quartets in safety. I have since learned that Smith O’Brin and his men have moved off from the Ballingarry height before the sub- inspector ventured to bring out his men into the open POE Steerer rire previous to their departure the clerk, Mr. O'Grady, re- quested the serjeant to leave them the letters of Dr. Blake, and of the Honourable Mr. French, which he declined to do, telling him to make application at Cojone} Browne’s office. HUE AND CRY, We understand that this publication has béen issueg to-day, and that it contains a proclamation, declaring that the following persons, charged with treasonable acts have absconded, and calling on all magistrates, constables, &c., to arrest and secure them—namely, Thomas Halpin, Thomas D. MeGee, Stephen Meany, James F, Lalor, Francis Morgan, Henry Shaw, John 4], Drum, P. J. Smith, John Cantweil and James Cantwell), Thomes Devin Reilly, Joseph Brennan, and Mitchgel Orane. Four o’clock—Messrs. Halpin and Rea have been conveyed to Kilmainham jail in covered cars. Up to the present no other errests have taken place, but several are spoken of. REPORTED ATTACK ON A POLICE BARRACK ap THURLES, IN WHICH SEVERAL POLICEMEN WERE KILLED. : A Kilkenny correspondent of the Dublin Freeman's Journal, writing under date August Ist, says; ‘The clergy of many parishes have strongly advised their flocks not to join in any armed attack on, or regist- ance "to, the authorities ; and I have learned from a well-informed source, that the parish priest of Urling- ford, in this county, prevented a number of his from going to Mr. O’Brien’s assistance on Saturday. It is believed that Mr. O’Brien fed most of those who flocked around him at his own expense, and strictly pro : hibited any of them from seizing provisions or cattle air, in consequence of the approach from Thurles of from the farmers. Early to-day it was reported that a General McDonalé with artillery and two thousand men. Mr. O’Brien rode by himself from Ballingarry in the direction of Kilkenny. The clergymen of many parishes have strongly ad- vised their flocks not to join in any armed attack on, or resistance to the authorities; and I have learned from a police batrack had been attacked at Thurles, Ata later hour the rtmour changed to Cashel, and gained more credit. Indeed it is confidently believed here, at this moment, that several of the Cashel police were killed in the attack, for a large body of constabulary have marched from Kilkenny in the Tipperary direction, well-informed sotirce that the parish priest of U rlingford, in this county, prevented a number of people from going to Mr. O’Brien’s assistance on Saturday. It is believed and many of them said that ‘ the City of the Kings’ was their destination. That some sudden intelligence caused them to get the route there is no doubt; for amo that Mr. O’Brien fed most of those who flocked around ‘them were forty-five policemen of the Pilltown station, him at his own expense, and strictly prohibited any of Who had in the morning been ordered to return to that them from seizing provisions or cattle from the farmers, | place. There are very vague accounts as to the killed and wounded at Ballingarry; but I think you can rest as- ARREST OF DR. CANE, J. P: The writer above, communicates to the same paper | sured that no more than two were shot dead, though one the following notice of the arrest of Dr. Cane: hundred and thirty rounds of ball-cartrige were fired by | ‘Shortly after the arrival in this city of the 75th regi- Mr. Trant’s party.

Mr. Stephens is wounded in the thigh. Dustin, Monday, half-past five, p. m. At a Privy Council held to-day at the Castle, procla- mations were issued against the counties of Kerry, Westmeath, South Wexford, Carlow, Queen’s County, Kildare, Wicklow, and various other baronies of Oork, King’s County, Cavan, and Monaghan. During the conflict with the police on Saturday, two shots were fired at Mr. O’Brien, but neither of them took effect; but one of the rebels who was standing by O’Brien’s side, brandishing a pike, was Iiled on the spot. Frank Morgan, solicitor of the Dublin Corporation, was. arrested at Howth this day. Several other arrests! have taken place, amongst which’ are those of Hyland| the pikemaker, at Carlow; two gunsmiths of Dublin; Hughes, a fruiterer at Wexford. ‘T'en assistants in the house of Plyin & Co. have been committed to Kilmain- ham gaol as clubbists, and five in another establishment have since fled. SEIZURE OF THE IRISH LEAGUE ROOMS AND ALL IPS CORRESPONDENCE.—ARREST OF MR. HALPIN AND MR. JOHN REA, OF BELFAST. About two o’clock this day a sergeant and two police, accompanied by some members of the detective force, Cane; and at three o’clock on Tuesday morning, the learned doctor was visited by the county imspector, and a Dublin detective, who informed him that they had a warrant for his apprehension. Their prisoner at once accompanied them to the county gaol, where he was safely lodged, unknown to any of the citizens, The warrant states that the charge is grounded on informa- tion of ‘treasonable practices ;’ and the arrest was made under the Habeas Corpus suspension Act. No one, with the exception of his lady and children, are permitted to visit him, and all letters to or from him are opened and read by the authorities. I am at a loss to know for what the doctor has been arrested, for it is notorious that, no later than Saturday last, he exhorted the people here not to take up arms, or to go to Ballingarry. The deepest sympathy is felt with him, but the city was never more tranquil. Troops continue to pour in up to the time I am writ- ing. Ld ’ 6900 additional troops have been ordered into Tip- perary, to be located in the neighbourhood where the collision between the police force and country peuple under Smith O’Brien took place. Mr. J. F. Lalor has been arrested and lodged in Nenagh gaol. ae The Catholic clergy are cautioning the people through- out the country not to be misled into the present revo- Jutionary movement, nor to listen to the advice of the seaded by the resident magistrate, Joseph Green, Esq-sientered the rooms of che Inet Laaeue, No.2 Dame and the rear was brought up by. another body of police. street, and inquired for Mr. Halpin.

Instead of 1000 rebels, there were but 200, ‘or thereabouts, engaged in the affair of Saturday, The Nenagh Guardian says that but. three were killed. According to that journal—the names of the three men lilled are: Pollock, of Ballingarry; Brett, of Bally- tarsna; and Bridge, Coolquil; all men in comfortable circumstances, and farmers of a respectable class. Within the last few days. upwards of 400 pikes and G0 casks of ammunition have been seized by the au- thorities, inthe immediate neighbourhood where the rencontre took place between the rebels and tite police. The constable who was.captured by the rebels, but afterwards released, states the appearance of Mr. Smith O’Brien to be very miserable ; but it is said lre expresses. his determination never to surrender, 23.he feels ts sate would be certain.
