IRELAND . The TrPFEKABY BAKK .-r-It is stated that the shareholders of the bank , or rather those who , it may be said , represent them in Parliament , are about to i ntroduce a measure by which they would , to some extent , be released from their liabilities . . The Pope and the Late Mb . Lucas . —The Dublin Nation announces that it has " accurate authority for stating that the memorial of Frederick Lucas on the condition of the Catholics of Ireland , and their relations to the British Government and the Holy See , has been presented to bis Holiness the Pope , at whose direction it was composed , " and that " the memorial was very carefully examined and very favourably received .

Discovery of a Murdered Body . —A skeleton has been found in a bog at Upper Alia , near jClasedy . It was wrapped ( says a local paper ) in a patchwork of strong woollen cloth , resembling a coarse blanket or horserug , fastened round the body by several : small wooden skewers . The skeleton was that of a full-grown man . The hair of the head was found quite , fresh , but the boQ 9 » - > were black and considerably decayed ., . The remains were discovered by a boy while , cutting turf in . the bogy and were only-about two feet below , the surface . The people of the district unanimously pronounce the skeleton
to be that of Mr . Lambkin , an . officer of inland revenue , wibx > was supposed to have been murdered about twentyfour years ago , at Lettermuck , by three brothers named Mathews , who kept a paper-mill in the locality , and who , at the instance of Mr . Lambkin , were fined in a sum of 8001 . for a breach of the . excise laws . Though buried so near the surface , some bloodhounds , which were taken over from England , on purpose- failed to discover the body , and consequently the Mathewses , though suspected , could not be tried . Shortly afterwards , they emigrated to America .

CONTINENTAL NOTES' ' FRANCE . ' ' . ' ., ¦ . The separate Treaty of the 15 th of April , signed between England , France , and Austria , without the knowledge of Russia , and the object of which is to guarantee the integrity and independence of the Ottoman Empire , is exciting a great deal of surprise among the Russians Count OrlofF is greatly annoyed at it , ' and it has ^ een rumoured at Paris , though without good foundation , that the' mission 6 f " M . de Morny to Moscow would be retarded , if not stopped , in consequence .

This papei ' is'the property of a M . Hugdmann , who was obliged t ' o ' ^ fly from France ' after the coup d'etat of the 2 nd of December , and who first of all set up his journal as an organ' of the democratic party . Aftetf the recent
amnesty , he returned to Pans , where it is said he had interviews with several influential persons . * He then went again to Madrid , furnished with funds by the aid of which he established his paper on a much mdre expensive footing , and transformed it into an advocate of French Imperialism . On the 2 nd of the present month —the day . on which the whole nation publicly celebrates the ' anniversary of the rising of the . Spanish people , in the early part of this century , to cast off the oppression of their French invaders—an article was published in this ' Journal de Madrid , broadly hinting that , should Spain give any encouragement to the " enemies of order , " intervention would be necessary . " The Emperor Napoleon , " says the writer , " is responsible before
Europe for the future conduct of the Spaniards whom ' he protects by his influence without demanding the slightest sacrifice of the liberties they enjoy at this moment , even that of overwhelming him with ridiculous threats and gross insults ^ provided that those liberties do not degenerate into licentious extravagance , and that the Peninsula , adroitly led on by the spirit which seeks at this moment to disturb again the repose of the universe , be not a cause of disquiet for the world and a danger to Governments . " The writer professes a great interest " in seeing Spain regenerated under the constitutional and prudently liberal Government of Queen
Isabella II . ; " and he adds that , " as affairs stand at present , nothing alarming is probable But if by any chance things turned out otherwise ( which God forbid!)—if the Spanish monarchy were again menaced —if madness triumphed over reason , selfishness over patriotism , and evil over generosity— -there is no doubt that the West and the majority of Spaniards themselves woifid oppose such a state of ' fthiii gf i '" ; l . anc ^ as one ; of our contemporaries ; has justjy said , nothing ' could arrest the march of 100 , 000 men sent to give battle to" thfeRevolution , for they would certainly be" truer ¦ Spaniards than those whom they would encounter in their path .

A Mr . Rodgett , an Englishman , who , in company with his wife , had been travelling in France-for the benefit of his health , has died at Nice under very shocking and somewhat mysterious circumstances . He was dictating to his wife a letter , when he suddenly disappeared , and was shortly afterwards found to have thrown himself , Or to have fallen , out of window . He expired almost directly . Several French regiments have arrived from the
Crimea . The ex-Queen of the French ( according to a letter from Genoa ) is about to leave Nervi , and to return to Claremont , in England . She will stop two days at Genoa , and return-tcfEngland by Milan , the ; Tyrol , and Brussels . The Princess Clementine and her husband , the Prince of Saxe-Cobiirg Gotha , accompanied by , the Duchess of Orleans and her sons , the Counts of Paris and of Eu , will meet the ex-Queen Marie Amelie at Brussels ¦

" The Moniteur , greatly scandalised , ' warmly denies , ihe truth of this assertion , and asserts' that Prince .

BELGIUM . The day after the answer given by Count yilain XFV . to the interpellations , of M . Orts on the subject of th & Belgian press and the French Governmeivt , ' anumerouf crowd , " says a letter ficoni Brussels , ' ? assembled on the , square of the ^ Sotei ' de 1 Ville , in order to . present a cofligratulatory address piithe Minister of ' Foreign Affairs . Plackrds had been posted at an early hour throughout the city , calling a meeting for the evening at eigjdt o ^ clock . Some hundreds of persons , among whom lvera
the principal editors of the Brussels , journals and journeymen printers ,. met on the Great Place , and marche'd thence , with the national flag at their head , and defiled before the hotel of the Minister of Foreign Affairs and that of the Interior , around the park and the Place Royale , amid shouts of ' Vive la Constitution ! '' Vive Z 9 Vicomte VilainJl . IV . f Neither of the Ministers was " at home , and the address was left at the Foreign-office . Then the crowd passed the Montagne de la Cour and the Madeleine , and dispersed , again uttering vivats and cries . "
Another letter from Belgium gives an account of a ceremony of a very different kind—the keeping by certain old soldiers of the first French Empire of the am ver 3 ary service for Napoleon the Great . " Belgium * " says t ^ he writer , " was French in other days , and it still possesses a certain number ' of ' old soldiers of the Empire , who idolize the memory of the founder Vpf ' ttie Napp ,-leonian dynasty , ' The number of these gallant inen diminishes each year ; but those who remain ,, clothed In their best dress , the greater part decorated with the Star of Honour , are in the habit of repairing to the church of St . Gudule , preceded by drums , excellent music , and two f lags , viz ., the national and the Imperial , both covered with crape , to pray for him who was their idol on earth . " The Belgian army will shortly be greatly reduced .
The noble speech of Count ViBanon the subject of the Belgian press has received a disagreeable explanation from a communicated article in the Moniteur Beige , which distinguishes between what the Minister' reall y said last Wednesday in the Chamber and what has been loosely interpretedas his ! meaning . The writer says : —* " The Minister of Foreign Affairs ' has declared that the cabinet of which her is a member will never propose any change in the constitution . He was not further queaT tioned , and therefore was not , called upon to declare the intentions of ministers respecting the laws that regulate the press . Had such questions been put , the Government would have had only one answer to make , which is , that it meant to reserve to itself , within the pale of to be able
the constitution , its full liberty of action , so as to submit to the Chambers , when it . Should deem that the propel time had arrived , such modifications as might seem to it proper to be introduced # » tb tno laws concerning the presq . " . . . The Belgian Government has commenced a prosecw ^ tion against the JVaiwt noVspapef published at Brussels , for an article In which the Duthe ' ss of Brabant , a daughter of the House of , Hapeburg , is accused of being 'A tbo most actlvo instrument of the Austrian pressureon the Belgian do vornment , "; and of . making an export * mental * essayi on the government of the country by demanding that the constitution : be aurnoiidercd to ill 6 C ^ eur . of the Tuileries , and that < before the 25 th nnni ^ verflaryof-. thc dynasty , hft& been 1 oelebrAted .
