The Britinh Qfllululi* Are Now Very Vigilant—Ollier For«*l|fn X«wa. Dublin, Jenuerj 2.—Since the explosion at Dublin Castle, on Thursday, the police have been extraordinarily vigilant in watching for suspected dviiamitersi Of course, it is by no means ccrtsiii that the custle explosion was attributed to that doss of iudiviciutils. In tact, it ia becoming the general opinion that the whole atliiir was due either to natural causes or to the desire of the workmen employed about the castle to obtain a holiday, which their niastera had rclused to grant them. The customa officers, too, have developed extra activity iu searching the eilects of }>assengera landing at tjiieenstowii (rum thu traus-Atlautic

stfumers.

They have always made it a point to seize under the law any arms or ainniuuitioii brought into the country bv cither residents or foreigners, but siiioc Thursday’s affair they are stricter than ever^in their exnniinatioiis of pa.<<se:igeri‘ luggage. Tbe first fierson tir full a victim to tbe customs officers’ newly awakened ardor for the safety of tiie country is Mr. Thomas Kyan. an army fiensiouer on tbe li.vts of the'United States, who was a passenger on the Ouiiard steamer Etruria, which arrived at Queenstown. and his foot had no sooocr ^uehed Irish soil than he was taken if^py^stody on tiie charge of oonceuling a loaded*revol'. ver aud a supply of ammunitioii for that

Minister Kgan to-day received a polite note from the new Minister of Foreign Affairs, Pereirra, informing him of the deaire of the new government to maintain friendly relutinna with him, both perkunal ami olFicial, and aksp to preserve and maintain the tnendship existing between the countries.

Eighteen captains of merchant vessels have died, either from the black vomit or smallpox, Within two months. On some vessels the entire ship’s company, officers aud crew, have perished from these awful maladies. Seven sailors dieddn tbe streets, so quickly fatal has been the shafts of disease.

All the large dry-goods firms in Warsaw, Wilna, Lemberg and Cracow have sent back to Vienna and other cities, according to previous understanding, the goods they nad in stock and have received black materials instead. Bonnets, gloves, dresses, furs and jewelry, all are to be black.
