We are informed, from respectable authority, that a large reinforcement is intended for the already over-grown army of this kingdom--it is stated as very high as 5000 men: but for the number we will not vouch. We are also assured that two encampments are proposed--one in the vicinity of Dublin, and the other in the north. Two extra messengers are now, and have been for some days retained at the castle, whose instructions are to be ready at 20 minutes notice, to ride express to any part of the kingdom.
