Arrest of a Clubcist. On Sunday last the police of this district arreste 1 Mr. Patrick 01 Ian -nigan, for treasonable practices in July last. Mr. OTL had lately returned from France, where he had been residing since the suspension of the habeas corpus act.

He was vice-president of tho Clancassan Club, which had been organised here. He presented an address to Messrs. Meagher and Doheny at the Slievenamon meeting, which the Whig administration considered a crime. Is! it possible that little Itussell is in terror of the defunct Confederation still The Wolf is on the Walk. For the past few days two rather respectable -looking lads made detour through this district in the hopes of finding out, if possible, the state of feeling (I should think politica').

One of them shouted republican doctrines rather freely, and stated he was a French emissary, but his French accent had too much of the Kerry-brogue, and the young Frank was at once suspected from his cropped pole and military tramp. There was no use in his protestations. The cry of alarm was raised, and the chivalrous youth escaped by taking to his heels, and earthing in a neighbouring police barrack. The Census. What do the Government want now Is it to find out the diminution of the population during their present administration if so, it is excellent work.

The police here are doing it very well. On Sunday last the Catholic clergy of Carrick-on-Suir and Rathgormac, denounced from their altars, any person who should have anything to do with clubs, public or private. They also denounced Ribbonism, or any sort of illegal societies, and passed encomiums on the present government. A Sign of Abundance. Within the memory of man there has not been such a blow of hawthorn blossom as at present.

This harbinger has been considered by the old and experienc.d as the surest sign of a prolific harvest. DUBLIN. (From our Correspondent.) May 24. As one of the State Prisoners is a fellow-citizen of yours, it is probable that your readers would be anxious to learn something concerning him and his compatriots. I have it on the best authority that they are all in good spirits, notwithstanding their having prepared themselves to cross the water." It is most generally said, however, that they will not cross In any case their minds are made up for the worst made up to share every fate It may be said, that they loved Ireland not wisely but too well but that is the very reason that they should not he sacrificed.

Some would he sorry for Smith O'Brien, some for M'Mimus, others for 0'Donohoe bat every man of talent in the country must regret the loss of the genius of Meagher. Why should Government drive those men into exile? They were hunted down; and yet they sp ared life and property. Do your readers forget the massacres of Newtownbarry, Carrickshock, Why were not the perpetrators of these bloody deeds hanged or transported 1 Let our rulers answer. And yet Mr. Thomas F.

Meagher, who neither spilled blood nor saw a battle, is threatened with banishment. Shame I am happy to inform you that public opinion will do much in their favour petitions are signing here with great rapidity. They should also pour inJ from the country. The Government are in a fix they are afraid to let them go, and yet they dislike transporting them. Trust me it was public opinion, and not the gracious intentions of Monahan, that saved Duffy.

The result must soon be known. THE PORT OF ROSS. The tonnage of the vessels belonging to the port of New Ross amounts to 10,500 tons, and the amount of dues received at the Custom-house during the year was upwards of 31,000. When we shall have the Waterford and Limerick Railway fully opened, we expect to see the Ross merchants coming to reside here as well as to see The Waterford News published every day in the week. EMPLOYMENT DUNGARVAN.

Some of our subscribers in Dungarvan have complained to us about the want of employment in that town and requesting our opinion on the subject. We need hardly say that most localities in Ireland are similarly situate. We would, however, beg to suggest to the men of Dungarvan the propriety of stating their grievances to their representative, Mr. Sheil, whose influence with the Government is incalculable. He might urge on the people in Downing-street the importance of some useful public work in Dungarvan.

Employment, above and before all things, is what is wanted We shall never be done with famine and sickness and death and broken hearts and emigration and crowded jails and deserted funerals and wholesale bankruptcy, until the people find employment. Speak out to your Representative, people of Dungarvan, and tell him to turn his sparkling eloquence to your advancement to the welfare of his unfortunate native land. HIGHLY IMPORTANT. It is an ascertained fact that, during the preva-. lence of cholera in Clonmel, nit a single Teetotaller was attacked with it.

Let this be a warning to drinkers, whether big or little. AWFUL DOCTRINE During the week a Socialist orator in Paris addressed his hearers thus The bourgeoise had fattened like pigs on the sweat of the people, and should like pigs be killed to make bacon of for those on whom they fed We fear that, as an ex-king once said, these fellows are marching to cannibalism." DUNGARVAN. (from our own correspondent.) May 24. Since the cholera commenced here, about twenty-five days ago, there have been sent the Shnndon hospital 42 patients, out oi wnicn 318 died, and 56 recovered. During this period cases occurred in the town and Abbeyside deaths, 7 sent to hospital, 14.

and 20 recovered. Doctor Flynn principally attends the town cases, and his treatment has been very successful and effective. In the past week were 1 15 cases sent from the workhouses to the Shannon hospital deaths, 100 recoveries, 39. In town there were but 3 cases deaths, 1. On the previous week 159 cases wore received into the Shandon hospital, and 158 died.

From this it would appear that the dreadful epidemic is on the decrease. The inhabitants of Abbeyside have protested against sending those persons who have recovered from cholera at Shandon, to the auxiliary house at Abbcysid which has been emptied for that purpose, for converting it into a house of recovery." The chapel bell was rung, and 'the people collected at the Cross of Abbeyside, determined and prepared to resist, at the liskof life, the transmission cf tin parties alluded to. As yet the authorities have yielded to the prejudices of the Abbey-side folks. A corpse was being conveyed for interment in the Abbey, people turned it back In this cae they ere quite right, as the Abbey grave-yard is already too crowded, and calculated to poison the air. and create disease.

robbery. On last week over two cwt. and. a half of lead was stolen from Mr. Dower's house.

Mr. Dower contributes very largely to the support of the poor, being one of the greatest ratepayers in Dungarvan, and gives a considerable amount of employment at his brewf ry and farms and it is a dcplorab thing to find persons in the town, so lost to every feeling of religion, and common moral rectitude, as to plunder such a gentleman. The mere idea of such au instance of moral depravity, is enough almost to madden the heart of the best disposed towards the poor. THF DYING CHILD AND THE SICK PARENT. Mr.

George Hill, a short time ago a printer, and contributor to the local journals in this town, is Ai I now an inmate in tne woiitnousc. unc or iwu days ago an interesting little girl of his was in a dying state she expressed a wish to become a Catholic. The Rev. Maurice O'Gorman attend' and a ked Mr. Hill did he object to his child becoming a Catholic "I shaT never interfere with the feelings of a dying child," was the noble and enlightened reply.

The girl was 12 years of aje. Since sVe has gono to a brighter and happier M'orld. ilr. Hill himself continues dangerously ill. From another Correspondent.

From the exceedingly crowded state cf our workhouse together with its sis auxiliaries, disease of every description has been most brief. No less than .4 10s per diem is paid 'for the mere miterial for coffins The manufacturers of them arc obliged to work on Sundays to meet the demand. The principal industrial occupation of the able-bodied inmates is the very profitable one of yrave-dijjing, at which there are no less than 40 picked inmates employed daily PUBLIC HEALTH, In calling the attention of our readers to the requisition con a public meeting on this sub ject for Monday next, which will be found in our advertising columns, we cannot refrain from expressing the gratification we feci in uoticing that it is thus intended to second the exertions of the Vice Guardians. know the beneficial results which have attended the efforts of benevolent persons in other quarters, who by personal visiting, advising, and as far as possible relieving the poor in their own dwellings, have checked the progress of cholera in our vicinity. In Portlaw the arrangements which have been made there by Dr.

Martin and others have not failed to produce the best results and by having due attention paid to diarhcea, the premonitory symptom, many valuable lives may be preserved. We understand that it is contemplated to have statements as to the actual condition of the poor laid before the meeting in order to adopt some plan not only to give advice, but also to afford the necessary assistance. Poverty may he said to have reached its acme in this city. We are called upon to check (if possible) the increase of this misery for cholera would have the tendency to add to it in a powerful proportion. But we cannot at present enter further into this matter.

We rely upon our readers attending on Monday, when even the most apathetic will see cause for exertion so as to cooperate with the Sanatory Association, to whom we are already so much indebted. To the Editor of the "Watcrford Sews." SCOTCH AND IRISH TENANTS OR THE BITER BIT!" Waterford, May 22, 1849. Sin A statement having appeared in the Times of Friday the ISth inst. with respect to Captain Lustace's property in the county Cork, I thought it probable you would give insertion to the following story which has obtained circulation here for the last few days. Some tenants on Lord Carew's Wexford property, who heretofore paid 2 per acre, applied to his Lordship to lower the rent to c15s his lordship would not take less than 1 10s; the tenants left the ground and went to America this spring.

On his Lordship's invitation two Scotch farmers came to view the ground and value it the'r proposal was to take it rent free for two years, and thenceforward pay 13s per declaring at the same time that the quality of the soil and the distance from market would admit no better offer. I give this as rumour the nobleman in question is considered a good landlord. PUBLIC RUMOUR. RICHARD O'GORMAN IN AMERICA. We are glad to learn by the last American mail that Richard O'Gorman, jun.

Esq. has arrived in, America in the best of health. DANGER OF SPEAKING WELL OF ENGLAND Macready, the Irish tragedian was pelted off the New York stage the other day with rotten eggs. The reason of this harsh treatment is assigned to be this, he was caught boasting of England'' at a late evening party Breaking Bagpipes on a Piper's Head. On yesterday a curious wag named Power, deliberately walked up to a poor piper in George's-street, and smashed the pipes, with which he was then performing, on his head Nine persons were accidentally drowped in Donegal on Monday.

To Corxcspondcnt3. fs5 The News having already obtained a Circulation exceeding that cf most of the Provincial Press, we need hardly remind Advertisers of the advantage of adopting it as the best medium of Publicity. 3T Tjie Conductors cf this Journal cannot be hell responsible for the sentiments or opinions of their Correspondents. Some good and respectable friends of ours in Watcrford, Dungarvan, and other towns, have advised ns not to go to tiio txpon.se of publishing twice a-week at least until tiio country u'd begin look up" a bit. are very grateful for the advice, although knowing welt that few papers in the south of Ireland are now saving themselves, even though many of them are worked by practical printers.

In England, rich and powerful though she is, it is rather remarkable that weekly papers (only) arc in the provinces. Always welcome, dear sir, but more welcome by your being more concise. It is certainly remarkable that Messrs. Flavin and Kavanagh's advertisement was the only one that wo noticed frcm a shopkeeper in Watcrfonl for a long time past. No wonder that so many presses in Water-ford have perished.

Our Special Correspondent shall be the neighbourhood of Carriek in a few days. His canvassing mission has, he says, far exceeded his best expectations. We perceive that soma persons covered the bills which woro lately posted, headed 'cholera." However we may ditto i- frcm the mere heading, the ndwec which the bill rout lined was devoid of professional technicalities, and in every way most excellent. We know tint the heading alarmed many nervous persons; but wo also, know that it has had the cifect of checking the abominable vice of drunkenness. We think the magistrates of Wnionord an'! Dungarvan ought not bo so ready in giving licenses to low public-houses.

A Tramorc Man" Try again your poetry will not answer The peophi of Dungarvan should not be alarmed the disease is not half so bad as persons think. A Friend to tho Poor" recommends the removal of the paupers from the fctore in Johnstown, which is surrounded by stagnant water. Th letter is well written but we have laid it down ns a principle net to publish epistles or attacks on public men without knowing the author.

If A Friend to the Poor" wishes to put his name to the communication he has sent us, we sh.dl insert it in our nct.

Lines to a Brother in our next. TlTmAYliiVENIfi, MAY 2. 1849. The news of the week is not of a very exciting character. The only measures which have any practical relation to Ireland, and which cBme be.

fore Parliament this week are The Rate-iii-Aid Bill, the Navigation Bill, and the Drainage of Land Bill. These Bills have 1 through the usual Parliamentary form3, and will, it is thought, soon become the law of the land. England is tranquil the Navigation Bill is disturbing the minds and stomachs of a great many Balls but, nevertheless, we read of no deaths from starvation them. Emigration to Australia is very popular in several English towns some few persons arc proceeding to the States, and Canada. But the synvpathy for Irish distress is very trifling indeed.

As the poor Irish are alive detested but we hope John docs not curse them when dead." We scarcely need say that famine in the west of Ireland seems to be advancing with more than railroad pace. Elsewhere we give details which are painful to the human mind and dreadful to contemplate. As the Press truthfully observes, the people in the west are not emigrating, as in other districts, to America, but to their graves In France, as is usual, discontent is still rife. The Socialists are seeking, by all possible means, to disturb the public peace. We find that some of the first military officers of the country have just been appointed to conduct the expeditionary army to Italy, which now amounts to about 20,000 men, well arnrnl, and on the scale of what is called grand army' men who by nature love Tho harmony of war The trumpet's clangour, and the clash of arms." In another column we give some scraps of Italian news.

The Neapolitans, the French, and the I ornans, appear to be jealously watching each other. Up to the present, however, the Romans soem to have the upper-hand, be their reign long or short. They made a stouter fight than even their enemies must have anticipated. It is stated that the Hungarians have obtained a signal victory over the Russians that they had disarmed a Russian corps of 30,000 men, with the capture of CO pieces of cannon. The news from mcricn is not important.

By the letters of a Watcrford emigrant, which came to hand yesterday, we perceive that cholera was very bad in New Orleans, although trade was much better there than in other parts of the Union. 00,000 dollars of gold from the diggings had arrived in Boston, and people ar. still push- ing towards tnc mines. Everything appears comparatively quiet in Canada that there is a kind tof smothered rebellion in it no man doubts but for the present there is apparent nothing more potent than a kind of under-growl amongst the discontents. When these elements shall burst forth into a hu jc earthquake, no man can tell.

LATEST FROM LONDON. We learn by the latest London intelligence that Sir James Graham refuses to join the present Government unless Lord Pahnerston leave the Foreign Office, and as a matter of course the other six Pecl-ite Coalitionists must follow his example. All ad mit, however, that the present Miustry cannot stand without an infusion of Peelite blood. The Chief Commissioner under the new Encumbered Estates Bill is to have 3,000 per annum, and the other two 2,000 each. Not bad.

LATEST FROM AMERICA. The riot in Canada has subsided to a wordy war between the factionists. President Taylor has kindly promised Lady Franklin to assist in ascertaining the fate of her husband's expedition. 3,000 of the Californian adventurers are sick of yellow fever, which has set in amongst them. The first National Council of the Catholic Church in the United States, was convened on the 6th of May in the metropolitan church of Baltimore.

Joseph Hume, Esq. M. P. is indisposed to 11 Mount Mellerai, May 24. I am now sojourning in" this romantic and beautiful place, after a tedious travel through Waterford and the neighbouring county of Tipperary.

In my last I remarked that the poor were flocking into the towus, which diminished their number in the rural districts. That is true, but nevertheless the number of poor creatures that are strolling about the country is still very large. When I was going up to the Abbey I met several groups of poor persons, some of whom were carrying children, and most of them barely able to carry themselves, all wending their way to and from this great, bountiful, cl.arity-irivintr establishment. For the past three or four years countless thousands, I learn, have received sustenance at the hands of the good Monks. How is it that men without pay, or pension, or State patronage, can support thousands of our fellow-creatures What has Trinity College and all other rich places of that kind done for the support of the poor I have never heard of anything.

When I calculate the vast amount of poverty that is succoured here, I am disposed to think that if we had many such establishments in Ireland poor-rates or poor-law taxes would not be required. This much, at all events, I am convinced of that if those monks had the command of say one-half the money that was raised under the poor-law system in Ireland for the last 12 months, not a being would have been allowed to die of hunger I mean, of course, if monasteries were in the different localities where poverty was extreme. In Lismore as in Dungarvan the appearance of the paupers who surrounded the poor-houses was singularly heart-rending. Some of them werelying on their backs, more on their faces some against the ditches, more in the ditches, and a few in old cars. I spoke to a little boy who was lying down in the road-side at Lismore.

Near him I saw saw the skeleton of a man (not more than about 40 years of age) whose face appeared quite black, and whose teeth protruded as if he had been interred for two or three years. 1 asked the boy was that his father that was lying by his side and before he had time to answer the father replied in a sepulchral voice I am his father My heart would not allow me to ask him another question the ill-fated man sunk his head again, and I proceeded onwards. A FAMILY DINING ON GREEN CABBAGE LEAVES In the parish cf Rathgormac, amongst the many poor persons that I met were a woman and her son, a fine hoy about ten years old. They were sitting on the road, the little boy devouring green cabbage, leaves The fcliowing are the replies of this poor woman to the various questions that I asked her We had not a bit to eat for the last three days but those cabbage leaves sometimes the farmers, God spare them, give us a sup of milk with them, but there are so many poor people calling on them their hearts are broke my husband's name was Ryan, he died about two years ago, he was a labourer, and has left us here on the world the farmers sometimes give us a few turnips we seldom get a bit cf bread I was in the Dungarvan poor-house all the winter, and I left it because my little boy had like to die in it I would go in it again, only for the sickness what we got to eat in it hardly kept the life in us we got two meais a day in it, but we could eat them in one myself and my little boy got two fine meals about a month ago, 'an I'll tell you how; Mr. John Barron, of the Dungarvan poor-house, was passen' the road, an' I asked him for something, an' oh, may God bless him, he is a good man he gave us 4d what do you think, sir, but we then went and bought 4d.

worth of meal for it, an' if you'd only see the tTo beautiful meals we had." I give the above dialogue, or replies to my queries, in order to show how deep are the sufferings of the poor, and how they are struggling on. I could instance many other cases of suffering, but I wiil not tire your readers. the CRors never presented a more cheering appearance. The wheat crop appears to be unusually healthful. The potatoes, too (the poor man's hope) are "peeping" over ground in every quarter and early sowing, I am happy to say, was much adopted this year.

If God but ward off the blight" this year, we may expect a magnificeut crop of the ancient root. LAND SHARKS I understand that a number of keepers" have been already engaged by certain landlords in this neighbourhood to "watch" the growing crops HOUSE LEVELLING. It would be a difficult task to calculate the number of houses that have been levelled within the last three or four years in this county. If proper provision had been made for the occupiers of many of them, I should not regret their demolition, for some of them were unfit for beasts to live in. NEW CEMETERY.

A very fine new cemetery has been recently opened outside of Lismore. Already, I learn, a great many have been interred in it. On Monday the Rev. Mr. Alcock charged a man named Bergin, with stealing an urn off the tomb of the late Joseph Nash, in the Abbey church.

Bergin is to be tried for the offence at the quarter sessions. Wm. L. Hackett, Esq. son of Alderman Hackett, Esq.

of Clonmel, has, we are happy to perceive, been admitted a member of the Honourable Society of Lincolns'Tnn, London. Cholera is on the decline in Clonmel the num- ber of recoveries exceed the number of deaths. In Kilkenny and other towns it is now hardly heard of. Limerick suffered most. On Monday, in Clonmel, the Mayor had a number of men cleansing the town.

On Monday, Elizabeth Clarke and John Lidsey were charged at the Guildhall police-office, London, with stabbing and assaulting a man named Wilson. Remanded for a week. The butler and servant of a lady named in Grosvenor-street, London, robbed their mistress of 150 worth of plate, and were remanded for a week on Monday, at the Marlbo-rough-street police-office. A respectable-looking man, named John Clements, threw himself off Blackfriars Bridge on" Monday morning, but was fortunately rescued by a police-officer. The cause was disappointed love.

Daniel Holmdem, a coal-backer, has been committed to the Old Bailey, London, for attempting to murder a young woman, named Martha Jane Brider, by cutting her throat with a razor. They lived together, and he committed the outrage under the influence of exasperation, arising from a quarrel between them. The cholera has disappeared from Nenagh, and is decreasing in Clonmel. a then stated lie would r.ot oner any lurther oppo-Miion to the bill. The house then resumed.

The chairman reported progress, and obtained leave to sit again on Tuesday. Adjourned. House cf Commons Lord J. Russell said there could be no doubt but that a pistol had been fired by an individual at her Majesty, yet there was no reason to sup-pose that it was done with a treasonable intention. In short the transaction was more remarkable for baseness than atrocity (cheers).

It was unnecessary to move an address to Majesty. Mr. J. O'Connell regretted that the individual who committed the crime was an Irishman. The house went into committee on the Encumbered Estates (Ireland) bill, when all the clauses passed, and the bill was ordered to be reported on Thursday.

In the Lords, on Tuesday, the Navigation Bill wa9 postponed to yesterday. House of Commons Mr. J. O'Connell gave notice that he would, on an early day, move for leave to bring in a bill legalising tenant-right in Ireland. Mr.

T. D'Eyncocrt moved for leave to bring in a bill for shortening the duration of parliaments to three years. Lord Stuart seconded the motion, and Lord J. Russell opposed it. The house divided, and the motion was carried by 4C against 41 a result evidently unexpected, and which was hailed with vehement and prolonged cheering.

The house adjourned to Thursday, in consequence of Wednesday being the Derby day FOREIGN NMTST ITALY. Letters from Toulon of the 18th announce the return of the steam frigate La'Pomone wh'ch con-vcyed M. Lcsscps to Civita Vccchia. At the departure of thePomone from Civita the 15lh it was reported that General Oudinot was again about to attack Home. The fact was regarded, however, as improbable.

The fleet under the command of Admiral I'audin, composed of the ships of the line the Friedland, Jean Hercule, and Jemappes, and two steam-frigates, had anchored at the Islands of Hycrcs. The steam-frigate Vauba, which had lately left Italy has been ordered to proceed to Gaeta to be placed at the orders of the Pope. Letters from Turin announce that Bologna was entered on tho 15th by the Austrians, after a sanguinary contest. The following letter from Father Ventuia. dated Civita Veccbia, the 12th will (says the Daly News) be found interesting: It is certain that the French are marching on Home, only, however, to make a demonstration, and not to attack the town.

M. de who ha9 arrived here, has grne to the head -quarters cjf General Oudinot to bring him orders not to atack. as General Oudinot has forbidden it, saying that le had been deceived he had been made to believe that the approach of the French or Neapolitan trocps wonld have brought on a reaction sooner than in Tuscany. Since this was nor true, he wished not for war or the effusion of blood. He wis' cd not for the ruin of Home ard its monuments." It is stated by a Leghorn paper that 200 per sons have been shot there.

Persons wearing the national colours have been shot without a trial. At Florence the liberty of the press has been suspended. INDIA. The latest from India conveys the intelligence of the annexation of the Punjaub to the British dominions. PARIS.

It was rumoured in Paris that General Oudinot was ngain beaten by the Romans. The French Government has joined England in protesting against the treaty between Russia and Turkey. ELECTION OF A CATHOLIC PRIMATE. On Tuesday the election of a Catholic Primate to succeed the late Most Ucv. I)r Crclty, took place at Armagh seven Bishops were present nd after a scrutiny had been made, it appeared that Dr.Dixon, of Maynooth, was nominated dig-nissimus.

A riot took place at the Navigation Wall on Monday, created by a large number of men, amounting to about three hundred who assem. bled their demanding employment on the Railway works, and on being refused attacked the men at work and carried away some of the barrows and other implements. Some of the men were an a ted by Constable Helton, and brought before the magistrates on Monday, by whom they were sen tenced to month's imprisonment each, and hard labour. Cork Examiner. Mr.

Dicksox and Mr. Fitzgerald have, it will be seen from our Advertising Columns, renewed their Addresses the County. A third Candidate, having at least equal claims, is, we are told, about to come forward. But we believe the most influential and independent men among the Constituency have it in contemplation to reelect William Smith O'Brien. Limerick' Examiner.

We understand that some of the gentlemen connected with the Watcrford and Limerick Railway, members of the" Waterford Ancreontic Society," are about getting up a'Philharmonio Society in this City, to be conducted on the same plan as the Dublin and Waterford Musical Societies, which have proved so successful. As soon ti arrangement are completed, is their intention to give a concert, for which the best talent in the country will be engaged, and to which none but members will be admitted. Limerick Chronicle. Catherine Bryne who was on the out- door relief list for Carlow, died last week, and suspicions being entertained that she had money, notwithstanding her apparent poverty, her clothes were examined, when a sum of 23 was found sewed in her stays Lord Eglington's Flying Dutchman won the Derby at Epsom on Wednesday by half a length. 26 horses started.
