ARRESTED BY FENIANS.
(PER UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION.) . London, April 18. Some days ago a clerk named Grey employed in the central Telegraph office at Dublin suddenly disappeared, and no cluo to his wheraabouts was found until yesterday. It appears that he was seized by a body of Fenians, and conveyed to a place of confinement, where he was kept close prisoner for four days. During this period he -was constantly questioned by the Fenians regarding the nature of the messages which were taansmitted through the telegraph office. It is evident that his captors thought Grey was tho confidential clerk to whom was entrusted the duty of transmitting messages in connection with the Irish 'outrages, and that consequently he possessed means of affording them, valuable information.
