Carey the Informer.
The hatred of Town Councillor Carey among the lower orders in Dublin increases in intensity, and it may safely be said that nothing at all approaching it has ever been displayed towards any one individual, not even excepting Head-constable Talbot, who played such a conspicuous part in bringing to justice so many of the Fenians, and who was afterwards shot by Kelly. Mrs. Carey is guarded by the police when going to early mass, and her children dare not show themselves out of doors. Were it not for the police and marines w) o guard her residence, there can be no doubt it would be attacked. In conversation with a person some days before her husband became an an approver, Mrs Carey said — "If anything happens to my husband I can give such eviderce as will incriminate the very higheet among them." The person understood her h«=r to mean those occupying a leading position in the present agrarain movement If Mrs Carey's threats have any foundation, it is evident , her husband has not yet told all L he knows — English Paper.
