IRELAND.
The arrangements consequent upon the resignation of Mr. Justice Moore (which resignation has not been officially announced) are not yet completed. It is certain that flue Attorney-General, Mr. Ball, is going over to London to attend in his place in the House of Commons; so that whatever changes may be in contemplation cannot be brought into effect for some time. If Mr. Ball should accept the Puisne Judge- ship, Mr. Brady, the Solicitor-General, will become Attorney-General. Mr. Pigot, Sergeant Curry, and Mr. Richard Moore, are all spoken of the the Solicitor-Generalship. In all likelihood, Mr. Pigot will be the man. Mr. Moore, who has heretofore taken no promiuent part in polities, has availed himself of a reply to an address from Drogheda to announce his adhesion to the present Government; which he does in unqualified terms.—Tinies Dublin Correspondent. The slini/ says that a permanent Legal Adviser to the Government is to be appointed—an assistant to the Attorney-General ; and that the office is to be bestowed on Mr. Henry Hutton.
Mr. Ewurt is talked of as Mr. Maule's successor in the representa- tion of Carlow ; but we suspect that gentleman sets too high a value on his independence to link himself to Mr. O'Connell in that connexion. It would be curious if the representatives of two of the wealthiest Liver- pool families—Ewart and Yates—should owe their seats in the House of Connnons, for the same borough, to flue same Irish gentleman.
