IRELAND.

The Earl of Mulgrave has liberated Mr. Reynolds from the prison to which he was consigned by the Orange Court and Jury (as they hoped) for nine months, without any application from the friends of

that gentleman. It is hardly necessary to say how much satisfactioa to the Reformers, and annoyance to the Orangemen has been given by this act of grace. A fund to compensate Mr. Reynolds Will be raised by a subscription, to which Mr. O'Connell and his family have com- tributed liberally.

The Reform Registry Association for Ireland is likely to be of great service to the Liberals. Its object is limited to the registration of voters. The correspondent of the Tory Times says- " It appears that it has been determined to concentrate all their energies upon this single point, to the exclusion of tithes and all other subjects upon which differences of opinion prevail amongst the various shades and braochee of the Ministerial party. In consequenee of this cautions arrangement, a con- siderable number of Whip, who might be said to have been out of politics altogether since the hopeful Repeal project was started, have become members of this society. How long this state of things will continue, a month or two will dot:mice: As the first fruits of the labour of the Club, an immense number of registry notices—nearly a thousand—have been served for the ap- proaehing sessions in Queen's County, the far larger proportion of which are from Radicals; and 175 notices have been served for Kildare, where the Conservatives had been gaining ground at the recent registries It is said that the New Association eontemplauel au attempt upon two northern counties—Deacgid and Armagh. One of the Members of the latter county, Lord Acheson, ap- pears this day as a member of the committee of the Association. The Gosford, Charlemont, and Brownlow tenantry, are to be promptly and effectively regis- tered, in order to make a formidable struggle against Colonel Verner. It is un- derstood that a general meeting of the " Reform Association " will be held in Dublin in the beginning of the new year. The Ministerial patty acknowledge that they have been fast losing ground. They are certainly now striving hard to regain their position. Front this date the struggle of parties in Ireland will be well worth observing."

Men of all shades of Liberal politics support this Association.: Lord Killeen, Lord Brabazon, Sir 1Villiam Somerville, Mr. Sheil, Lord Clements, the Honourable Mr. Westenra, Sir Richard Nagle, Sergeant Woulfe, Mr. George Evans, Lord Ennismore, and a numerous list of Whig and Radical gentry, have taken an active part in its proceedings. As yet, neither Mr. O'Connell, nor any of his family, have joined the Association; but no one questions their cor- dial concurrence in its design.

Mr. Shea has addressed a letter to his constituents, calling upom them in the most earliest manner not to lose one moment in register- ing their votes mid preparing themselves to meet their adversaries at the next election. The letter was called forth by the boasting of the Tory papers that a candidate would certainly come forward for the county of Tipperary on Conservative principles ; but, from my personal knowledge of that county for upwards of twenty years, and the inde- pendent spirit of its people, such an attempt, if made at all, must prove a signal failure. At all events, the " Tipperary boys " will respond to the present call, and do their duty.—Correspondent (f the Courier.
