Such a franchise as this would be a great benefit to the people—it would induce many, very many landlords to mAte leases, 21 years, leaving the tenant an orizinal profit fo ct - least enabling him by iris own industry *ow to realise(' roar of 101. a year. landlonls do not like ma'am!, leases for liver—there is often an uncertainty whether the life be or dead—the life dues in gener.d lust longer than is convent. cnt to the landlord. 1 hive known a single !IL prevent the landlord having the battik of any revcrsionary hottest for near DO years, although he might have been • full grown man when his life was inserted in the lease. Landlords would, by my plan, be stimulated So make leases fur a certain term of twenty.one years. The fran chise would encourage them to do it. 'llse practice of tr. 'fancy at will, from which so many erns arise in Ireland, would cease, or cat least would be greatly checka--eind a stimulus would he given to the industry of the tenants. In leases for lives the tenant is often car;hi.onstrares— the life drops tine:pettedly is almost all instates The lowans has not the advantage of barmAtetng for a renewal, whilst his tenure is still continuing. This would not be so in a lease for twenty-ono years l the tenant, knowing the certain approach of the end of his teem, would keep bar. gaining with his landlord for a renewal—the three or four last years of the lease would afford an opportunity for mak ing a new bargain, and thus iuduce that specie- of fixity in the occupation of lands, which is so much wanting in this country. anti the absence of which I know to be the cause of much of the Wititeboy disturbances in Ireland. 1 nave entered into these particulars with the hope that some of the Ministry, really interested in the welfare of Ire land, may reconsider this subject. sod give to our counties a substantial and highly beneficial increase of voters, by sub stituting a clear profit of 101. sayear as the qualification to vote, for a tenure of 21 years, to the present unwise notion of givirr. the franchise to tumuli for 21 years, who assume a rent of WI. alcar. Such is the Ministerial proposal, to give the franchise in tended to be given, namely—to persons balding for 21 years, and assuming a tent of 501. a.year, whether they have Wrip profit or not. The objections to this proposal are obvious. First—lt is giving a right to vote to a man, not heves!' be has any proiit or property, but because he is subject to a burthen. A man Who ruins himself, and is reduced to beggary by paying arty pounds a year for a farm not really worth twenty pounds, Is thus made a voter, whilst Isle neighbour, who, perhaps, pays but 101. a.year rent for a si milar term, and has a profit of 1001. a-year has no vote. Now, this Is r monstrous absurdity, sad yet It is to be ilto law unless we, honest Web. prevent it. Second—The tenant at 501. a scar, without any profit, or indeed with a less profit than 101. a.year, is the m ere sl ave of his landlord; be may discharge one gale to enable him to vote, but the power of the landlord Is necessarily com plete over such a person, and he must vote u his landlord pleases. Third—This species of ['awhile is the best in the world for manufacturing raters, it will be so easy to make leases of single houses and gardens at 501. a-year. and to put the tenant in possession ' when the land may nut be worth 51. a. year. That this is dune Gotta fade (as the bill calls it) may easily be fabricated. The manufacture of rotes in Conne mara would, under such a clause, go on without stint or Huth, anti receipts for theta rents would only create an ex pense to the amount of the stamp. Fourth —This frail( like would, at the best, enercase th.• number of voters but little—it would not bring down the right of voting to the people. There are indeed f:w who really pay 501, a-year for a chards interest that hare Dot a freehold riAht elsewhere. The otilist of the inform measure might ti be to Identify the people with the constitution. That object is to be at tained in Fngland and Scotland to a great degree, whilst, in unhappy Ireland. a totally deficient principle is nilopted, and every erort is m a de to exclude the people and to create an oligarchy in e new form. How foolish it is in the framers of this measure. es it relates to Ireland, to imagine that they can with impunity treat Ireland with supercilious con. tempt and ig ominy, Mist they are exalting Bogland, and shelving themselves bountiful and generous benefactors to Scotland. How much more wise it would be to act with generosity to Ireland !! But our governors will never con&scend to study the Irish people until it becomes too Lite. Illy lard cuntpl.tilit puts the injustice to Ireland in a still stronger point of vLw, because I can show that instead of any increase in the number of voters in Irish counties, this reform bill will considerably diminish the number of electors in very m.tny of oar counties. The county electors in Eugland will be greatly increased. The county elee,ors in Scotland will be enormously in creased. The county electors in Ireland will be considerably diminished. Such hal been the measure of justice, as at all times, meted out by the •e managers" of Ireland to the Irish par plc. lint they deceive themselves much if they imagine that tho teformers who have proved their strength and their numbers will submit to this mixture of insult and in jury towards Ireland. I am right when I call it a mixture of insult and lajuty, beams.; the number of Irish county eltetoes is already too small. It is miserably. ludicrously too small. In 'tippet:try, for example, with a population considera bly over three handfed thousand inhabitants, the number of voters capable of being . polled does not exceed twelve hun dred. These are to be reduced by this rtform bill—because several of these voters, perhaps near two hundred, reside in Clonmel and in (30 , hel—all these will b. disfranchised as far I as relates to the county election., by the reform bill, as at present framed. In my county—Kerry—the population is over two hun dred thousand ; the number of voters apable.•f heing polled lode, if at all, exceeds seven hundred. Of these more than one hundred, residents of Tralce, will bz disfranchised, as relates to the wanly elections, by the reform bill, as U now alamds. I can scarcely repress the indignation I feel against the framers or the Irish reform bill, at thus, I will Nay, pre suming to think that the Irish peopl.: would PUbnlit to be nutted in Ibis manner. that is, to tee the county francbise extended, improved, augmented, in Ragland and Sco:land, whilst it was to Ite curtailed and rendered still mom oligar chical than before in the Irish counties. It cannot bc—l hopc I may add, it shall not be. The port of the admi.istration which mica the destinies of Ire land, will, I hop; and, indeed, believe, be roused from their prexcnt dreams, and will agree to act as Eddy, as justly, as gznornusly. by Ireland as their collensites do act by England and ticothand, tha is, they will considaably and practicably extend the franclaisc: to many, instead of milting it still more eat lusivc than it ix at illy fourth complain! ha, that great unfairness and injut tic.. is ex‘encled tow.ard- Ireland, in rant increasing the mn- Wm or her rep oxentatives more than one-fourth—that is, to at leact one launched wad thir,y members. Instead of giving in. this proper and very moderate in crcsce, we hay.: only the paltry number of live of rod us in addition to our one hundred. Now, let it be recollected, that it was just ibe 1111M1011111:11%. tion of all thz iniqtoii its poetised a the Union„ to limit the Irish rcptcooniativcs to one hundred, whilst England bad 512—that is, the Irish proportion was not um-fifth.

That is, Ireland should have had at least one Hun dred and fifty additional members, that Is, two handcar and filly instead of one To uff a us now only fire ae.ditional numbers, was nuly to show nothing byymid dlscespect--fire Ensnarers In adtii. lion!! Why, they gar: as molly to Scotian& Yes; they I gave to Scotland. chose portaladoa appatred. by tbs awes of 1121, to be only 2,900,000, five additional—and they gave to Ireland, r. hkh appeared by the same census, to contain 6,900,000 inhabitants, just Ave new mambas! ! !--tbit: is, In other woods, they rated each Scoteblian is equividetit to bree Irishmen! ! I PRICE SEVENPENCE. To the representation of Scotland, consisting of forty-five, they added five. To that of Ireland, amounting to 100, they added preci‘ely five—that is again, 45 Scotch were as im portant as 100 Wait gentlemen. But this is not cnougn ; the obtaining of even these five new members could not be attributed to any sense of justice. It was, alas, to bt: traced to pneonal influence, in four cases out of the five—and the fifth might have sprung from a still mote un- Irish mot One was to be given io Waterford—Sir John Newport re mind* ill of she probable cause. One was to be isivco to Limerick—Mr. Spring Rice may account for the mfr. Onc was to be given to Galway—There is certainly some remanbraneer or other who possibly may recollect why Galway was thus favoured. One. was to be given to the College in Dublin—perhaps it would Nero been bet.er to uke stray the ars:, rather then girt a evend. Bnt a di-creet SrdW,m.Gentral, on Ms fair road to the bench—for they sonsetimes make Chief Justices of Solieter.Gt meds i—ntay. perhaps, have discovered the con‘.:..icnce of having two +sling% to a College bow. I till make a pret.cut of thz second member to Belfast—if there be not a party there to deserve favour, there is no use in anti.lrishism at all. bly Nth complaint shall be brief—it consists of the con. I treat between the advantages to be derived by the English comities from the reform bill, with the tn,el refusal to ex tend such advantages to the Irish counties. This contrast will d. mons lila` once again the unfairness and injustice tvith which Ireland is !noted. Every co: my in England having more than one hundred . ' thousand inhaitants, gas an additional county member. There are in Ireland twenty-eight counties having more than one hundred thousand inhabitants. lr these counties were in England, they ttould get twenty eight new members-- being in Ireland, they do not get one. Here then is a positive and distinct wrong done to Ireland, to the extent of twenty-eight members. What Is the ex. cure ? None, but that we are Irish, and, like the eels, accustomed to be skinned alive. Again, every comity In England having more than 150,000 inhabitants gets an addition of two members. There are, at least, eijliteen counties in Ireland having mote than 150.000 inhabitants. If these counties were In England, they would get thirty-six new members—being in Ireland they get no. one. Here, then, is another positive and distinct wrong to the ex tent of thirty-six county members, founded simply on this, that we aro Irish, and are therefore not to be treated as well u the English are. My sixth complaint shall be also shnrt. It is this—the towns in England having more than 10,000 inhabitants get members ; but, with the exception of the four towns I have mentioned, our towns get no members. I complain that Kilkenny, with a population of more than 30,000 inhabitants, probably *lO,OOO, Including all its sub.. urb,, dix.i not get nu additional member. Kilkoiny sent four members to the national parliament before the Union. It is not ercn by virtue of the reform to get a second member. Oh, partiality !!! I complain that Strabane and its vicinity in the north, doze not g...t a member under this reform bill. I complain that Carrick.on.Suir and its vicinity in the south, does not get a member. I cornilain that Cavan and its vicinity does not get a number. I complain that Tnam and its vicinity does not get a member. I am quite ready to Atm that If these towns were in Eng land, they would get at least one member each. But our towns are treated like our counties, with con temptuous injustice. Mark just this—ev-ry county in Eng land having more than 1.5,000 inhabitants gets, as I have al ready said, en addition of two members. Down has more than SOO,OOO inhabitants—it gets an ad dition. Tipperary has more than 300,000 inhabitants—lt gets no addition. Cork county has more than 600,000 in• habitants—it gets no addition • and after this, knaves and fools may possibly combine agai nst me, land raise a stupid cry of the Union !—the Union ! Why let them cry till they ate hoarse—ln what I Vary does legislation of this land resem ble the legislation of conntriea r.ally ouittd—r;Ally and net nominally identified with each other P Let tis.:in then talk to me as much as they please of the union—l ask for proofs of the existence of any thing but a jealous, partial, and , unjust domination in the provisions of the reform bill in tended fee Ireland. lily szvEnnt and last complaint relates to the city of Dublin. Edinburgh is, by the reform, to double its representa tion ; London and its vicinage is to double its repiesents tion_; Dublin and its vicinage is to get no addition. Edinburgh, has now o.te--it gets two ; nay, its atijseert, Leith, sets another; in fact, I may say Edinburgh trebles As representation. Dublin, with its vicinage, gall no addition, though its per. puiation is considerably more than that of Edinburgh— nearly twice as many—and this is called. I suppose, justice and fair play. ' London, with ha vicinage, now returns eight members; they arc to return sixteen. I njoic.: at it—hut, how soon does my joy cease when I turn to Dublii and its vicinage, and sec that they continue at two ! ! ! But the population in Dublin and its vicinage is, I am convinced, more than one-third of that of the London population, with its vicinage— at all events, it is much bore than oa.--fourth. Why, then, do not we get four mem bentbers, itt least, for Dublin ? ' Alas, the reason is obvious. We arc Irish, mere Irish— What other reason can be given ? None—ceruinly mute. Here then are my seven complaints on behalf of Inland —I make them that they may he /caressed. The thing is not yet done—the additional insult to Ireland is not yet effectuated. There is the locus penitenthe till re maining. Here are my seven complaints: First—The franchise in towns and cities is too high.— It should be continued at five pounds, Dot raised unjustly to ten pounds. &tetrad—Our county franchise Is not extended as shot of Engioul is. Th./ have 40s. ftgcluolders—we should have th.us. They ;not ten pound copytiolders—we should get ten pound leasehold.ra for years. Third—Our county vows are to be substantially dimi. nisiml by the ileto.lll Bill—that la, by the exeltruiun of .he towns that return ntembas. Thus, • ItUst the English re. form greatly increases the counir votes. in England, the Irish reform sill grea:ly diminish the county voters in Iraisnd. Fouith—lrelontl does not get in adequate increase it re. pre-entatives. On the contrary, eke is treated in this respect with disgusting unfairness. eountic., be*idca an increase of voters, ' get. on the scale of their respective p er .t ai i nn , an I nercas „, of members. In Lod has her county voters diminishes', and her county rept:sent:nivel; not augmented. Sixth—As our counties ore treated with this injustice, so are our cities. The towns in England get representata. tires on the stale of population. That advantage is denied to the towns in liciand. Seven.h—The CHINC of the city of Dublin presents a view of dic most gross partiality. Edinburgh, In fuel, tteldes her representation. London gets eight new members. Dublin does not get one—not one. Ju-tice, I exclaim—justice for Ireland. Real jestko--no mockery—no delusion. Above all, no itypoaidcal pretences. Justice for Ireland is my motto. Let u., then, people of Ireland, respze fully and linaly demand a illbt peldCipitiol2 in the bemtitei of aie jprOlt mem , sure of Reform. Let us itudstreepeetfully, but firmly, that there shall be no invidious 'distinctions—tie wslchtd ban. k. dogs after exploded monoplieli—uo vile atfernp,s to ire. ate a new servitude. Let us atutiousli 'beta the progress of the lteftwm 13111—incressa at all erred the liberties of the people of England and'ileotland, and a►xiously straggle I for our own. • _ _ - - -- - - May the Great Disposer of human events when the hearts of our rulen towards the people at Ireland. May be banish from their minds idle fears aid vain Jealousies, and May they discover this truth.--that it is time at length to aet, with Justice and generosity to the Irish laden. There never yet was a people so sensitive of justice—no responsive to genero sity. DANIEL OTONNOLL THE TURF. ASCOT HEATH RACEBo—TRITEIDAY.

MERILION SQtrana, 29th May, 1831. I have already pointed out to the people of Ireland the fa vourable aide of the great reform meoute. In England its salutary tendency is most abundant and striking—in Scot land its salutary tendency is most superabundant and obvious —in Ireland it may be equally so, if we shall have any thing like an equal measure of justice or fair play held out to us. We shall see. I have, in my former letters, pointed out the advantages to be derived in Ireland from the reform bill, even in its present shape—but I intimated it had also great, but curable defects, which it would be my duty to lay before the pub lic, in order to obviate these defects. Having no kind of Inclination to assist in playing the game of the Tories, I refrained from tracing out these de fects until after the elections should 1111•2 terminated. The cletions are now bluOtphantly ended, and now it is my duty to detect and capon all the insulting defects with wMA the Irish refuel.) hill abounds—defects so strikingly Con. trasted with the wise and magnificent improvements intro duced by that memnre into Scotland and England. In detailing the advantages of the Irish Reform Bill, I mentioned the rotten boroughs in each of the provinces which, arc to he thrown open by that measure. It certainly is a great aavantaAe that the people of Tralec and of 13elfast should, in future, have the free choice of their Represents. fives. So it I+ in each freed nomination borough. The opt rind town of Carlow will no longer he an object of indivi dual traffic. But I have gone through these advantages al ready. I need not now repeat them, though Ido delight to dwelt upon them all. I made one omission in my enumet ation of those boroughs. and an important omission it wan. It related to the rottenest of rovers boroughs—the borough of Athlone. I did not point out the great act of justice of its bting thrown open to its nthabi tants. This omission has been charged upon me as a matter of design. It was purely accidental. Situate partly in Con naught and partly in Leinster, I might have inserted Ath lone in either province. I thus omitted it in each—and by that accident it remained unnoticed. I have now only to express my deep regret that the gentleman who sits for that town nominally as its representative, but really as the no minee of his uncle, does not see how much 'iiglier he would stand, and how great and deservedly popular be would be come, if he had but the generosity and the manliness to take the part of the people, and give up at once that which will be wrested front him by legal force, is he continues to ,rasp it. My resent design, however, is not to dwell longer on the advantages to be derived from the reform in Ireland— but to point out the parts of it which are defective, and I think it my duty to trace these defects to the latent, if not avowed disposition to treat the people of Ireland with indig. pity, in order to favour a nondescript and ultimo extin. guided oligarchy, or rather squirearchy, in this kingdom. bet us see whether I shall be able to sustain this part of my accusation. My first complaint is, that the elective. franchise in the cities and towns is rated ton high, and will thereby unjustly exclude too many of the people. That is my first charge. I proceed to prove that charge. I say it is unfairly and unjustly wo high, especially as contrasted with a similar fr.inehise in England. The rate as which the right of voting front houses, in ci ties and towns, as regulated by the new bill, is at the yearly value of tell pounds. I say this is too high—greatly, unjustly, too high—l say so foe these reasons— In the first place, the rate at which the houses give the right to vote a. present in Ireland, where the inhabitants generally vote, is or the value of bye pounds. Now, it seems utsjetsts in doubt,. the value at cove: and to disfrandsise, in fu. tore, all Imislint of houses oriel's value than 101. a-year. The Iri.ll Parliament lest it at five pounds—why should the Bri. doh Parliament raise it to ten ? It its, in my mind, a mon strous step to doable the value thus as once, and to strike off, pmspet shay, more, 'much more, in many plac.s, than one. half of the writ/eat voters. In the seetind pluce—ten pounds is too high as contrasted with England. The franchise in Englund stands also, I admit, to ten pounds in cities end towns—but let it be re. collected .bat ten pounds in England, and ten pounds in Ire land. ate sj"ite dilsirent thing.. The ten pounds in Ireland is of much more yotersiiul value than in lie.gland. A man in Ireland is nina, richer with kit pounds than a man In England wit; test pounds. It is infinitely more difficult for an individuel obtein ten pounds in Ireland than in Eng. To b: just, therefore, this scale of value should be taken into cest•ideration, and the increased potential value, and incre.-.std scarcity of ten pourds in Ireland should be estitna.cd, end, theicfme, the rate of franchise should he re. (Need to meet the real, as contrasted wish the nominal value of money. It follows that this franchise should be rated much lower than ten pounds in Ireland. In the third plaet: the annparative number of persons in England occupying houses of ten pounds annual value, is infinitely greater in the ratio of population than in Ireland. It certainly makes& difference of at least 25 per cent.— Keeping, ti•erefore, the franchise at ten pounds in both countries, is an injustice to Ireland to the ettent of at least 25 per cent. This is a plain injustice to the cities and towns in IrJantl, to the amount of full one.fourth of the entire number of voters. I do then implore the inhabitants of the cities and towns About to be thrown open, especially the smaller and more remote towns, to meet at once and to petition the legislature to have the value of the houses conferring the franchise, re duced from ten pounds to five pounds a year—or rather to have the old five-pound house franchise made universal in all cities and towns sending members to parliament. The people of Legland will see the justice of this petition, and will, I trust. assist us. The Irish deserve such assistance— we have fought, and will fight well for English freedom. Let them contend for our's. illy SECOSD complaint relates to the franchise in counties --that is, for the election of knights cf the shire. In this respect also the most gross partiality, and, indeed, injustice, is exhibited. Nothing, one would think, but a determined disregard to Irish interests.a vile jealousy of giving constitutional rights to the Irish people, could have suggested the provisions of the reform bill touching the coca. ties of Ireland. Sec how the matter stands—control* the cases of England and Ireland, 41'11 then judge whether I use language too strong—or, rather, whether m Lnguage he strong enough. In Englard, in the counties, the franchise will retain Am, after the Reform Bill: Fine, the 40s. freeholders remain as r , preietit, numerous of COWSC, and communiatt ing the right of voting to poor men, who thus have the power to watch over their oats interesia.—Setved, an copy. holders elf ten it oi.tlit a rear saline are added to the voters iu counties. This is tot important and very numerous class.— Third, all teuttets fur terms of 119 years, at MIL a-year, be come also entitled to vote. I mu told these constitute a large body, and in England much increase the nuntbet of voters. The habit of taking lands in England deer, lam in formed, makes this addition to the voters valuable. In this country it would be quite otherwise, as I shall show re am dy. Thu/ Englard has these three great classes of voters in her counties-Ist, forty-shilling freeholders; 2d, ten-pound copyholders ; 3d, fifty-pound tent•paying to for years. Now, contrast this with Ireland. Ireland is not to have any forty.shilling freeholders. This I call inequality and injustice d' first. Ireland has no copyholders—thattire she ought to get a great malty other voters ; but she gets no p.ubsran'ial us use. ful increase. This I call inequality and Injustice slur second. Ireland has few tenants of chattle interests paying 501. a yea fent, bat persons who have in some other way a right to vote. I shall show this franchise to involve another to. justice, and even absurdity. What is worse is—that if a proper franchise were este.
