    3. 18-4-1867 From the Times. Dublin April 17th. A party of 18 prisoners, charged with high treason, were lodged in Nenagh Gaol yesterday. They are described as extremely respectable-looking, and able young men, their parents, in some instances, being farmers in comfortable circumstances. Thurles Bridewell is still fully occupied by prisoners of this description , who are awaiting an investigation into their several cases prior to their ultimate discharge or committal. It is said that several districts from which the prisoners have been brought, -Thurles, Holycross, Borrisoleigh, etc -are in a very backward state of cultivation, and in consequence of the unsettled state of those places, and the numerous arrests which have been made, no preparation for putting in the crops have been made.
