This day was published, TO THE PEOPLE OF THE COUNTY OF concurrence in those sentiments by accepting a re tainer from his Lordship. What was Ito do? Was Ito reject the hand of conciliation thus held out ? Was I to repudiate sentiments which were my own, and, by a dircct and immediate refusal, to place myself in a situation of unprovoked hostility to my friend Mr. Mahony, and also to the new system of public conduct which the letter suggested, and my own reason and judgment approved ? Certainly not. think I, at once adopted the proper course. It was this :—ln my reply, Written in great ha;te, and in the bustle of my canvass, I warmly and heartily concurred in the sentiments of liberality put forward en behalf of Lord George Beresford. I then en deavoured to have the offer of a retainer withdrawn, by showing that I could not he, of any political service to him—that it was merely my legal ex• ertions he could possibly purchase, and that those, too, must cost any person infinitely more that they could possibly be worth. My letter also contained a compliment to my friend Mr. Mahony, warmly ex. 7 Tressed, as is my fashion, and some , allusions Lo re cent events. Such was the only letter which eoadlit.6'the faithless Beresfords any pretext for calumniating me -:--such is the letter which they have perfidiously and untruly misrepresented. Yes, there was an ad ditional letter which they hare alluded to in their publications, but which, if laid before the public as it was written, would be seen totally to contradict their calumnies. stable of the law—to destroy the insolent and irre sponsible despotism of the code of magisterial:Lx; —to reolate the internal police on constitutional principles--to tertninete the horrible crime of human slavery in the West Indies•-•-qo eviuguish the mono poly of the East India Company, attd fo pitt roteil4 to that odious system of misrule by which these supporters of the priests of Juggernaut crush the energies of upwards of 100,000 4 00 A human beings ? Will Lord George Beresford do this, or any of it ? Not he, indeed. You would find him vo;ing with the minister and against the people on all and every one of these questions.. Can it, therefore, be po:- bible for any honest man to give him a vote ? What are his peraonul claims ? None whatever.

WATERFORD. MERRION•SQUARE, DEC. 7, 18294 Beloved Friends,—lt is singularly curious to ob serve the consciousness of baseness which the Be resfold faction betrays.

Jennings, 62, Cheapside. Accordingly, desiring to lessen me in your esteem, they have industriously circulated vai ions calumnies of this description against me. The course they took was this—first, having, as I think I may now call it, betrayed me into a corres pondence with one of their professional agents, they gave out that they had my letter recommending Lord George Beresford to the electors of Water ford. This report, however, was *too gross to be credited; and, what was of more importance, it was certain it would receive a speedy and indignant con tradiction from me. The Beresfords, therefore, authorised one of their agents to disavow this ca lumny; but such disavowal was immediately contra dicted by the Rev. Mr. Sheehan, of Waterford, and you, who know the sincerity and truth of my re spected friend, will easily appreciate the truth of a Beresford assertion when contradicted by that gentleman. The second calumny was this—that I had at first agreed to be counsel for Lord George Beresford, and only declined on being successful " in huxter ing" for a larger fee. The word " huxtering" is a • fine specimen of the Beresford dialect, for they are as refined in language as they are disinterested in politics, their intellect, delicacy, and politics, being all on a par. The second calumny thus charged against me is not only false, but is a falsehood with a double aspect. In the first place it is false, totally false, that I ever agreed to be Counsel for Lord George Beres ford at the ensuing election ; secondly, it is equally untrue that I ever " huxtered" for a larger fee. The only fee mentioned to me was 9001.-3001. as a mere retainer, whether there should be a contest or not, and the remaining 6UOI. in case there was * contest of even one hour's duration. The only re ply I did or could make to such an offer was, that it was in amount most abundant, and perfectly sa tisfactory, and this is what the Beresfords call " huxtering." This was in truth the highest fee ever offered to an Irish Barrister. It was certainly the largest fee ever refused by a barrister in any country where a fee could be accepted without professional disho nour. To the selfish beings who constitute the Be resford faction it must seem almost unintelligible how such a fee could have been refused. They have no materials in their minds to enable them to comprehend the pleasure which a single-hearted lover of his country feels in making any sacrifice in what he considers the cause of the liberty of his na tive laud. These calumnies the Beresfords have circulated against me, but I can safely conjecture not gra tuitously. 'file state of the Dublin Press at this moment is far from being consolatory. In truth, it is of to think of the weakness of some part of the Independent Press in this city—that part which . has (unbribed, of course), struck the banner of free dom, and raised in its stead the pennon of Beres ford profligacy. The Dublin Press was followed with equal zeal in Cork, but the master-hand of calumny was to be found in London. WAVERLEY NOVELS, NEW EDITION. Electors of Waterford !—Why should you elect Lord George Beresford ? Protestants and• Catholics, whyshbuld you elect him ? ~Ftoiestaut'fellow-colintrymen! during the now terminated conflict" for ernanciip . fition. some of you were enemies to concession. Let me do you the justice to say that there were amongst you those who acted from consciousness, though, of course, I think, most mistaken motives; but, conscientious Protestants, how did the Beresfords treat you ? They were the patrons of orange lodges—they were the promoters of Brunswick clubs. They urged you by precept, and much more by example, to assail, abuse, and vilify the religion and conduct of your Catholic countrymen, and, when the contest of angry passion was at its height, and the Beresfords sat the malignant demons of the storm, the magic wand of the Prime Minister was suddenly raised, down came the Beresfords, one and all, and to the right-about face went the gallant Colonel and all his troop, and voted for Catholic emancipation, total and unqualified ! ! ! Conscientious Protestants! Can you vote for the man who thus betrayed you, and that merely be cause he says that his principles are unchanged ? Why, if they be, is it not because he had no prin ciples to change ? WITH INTRODUCTION AND NOTES BY TIIE AUTHOR.

On the contrary, a second letter from Mr. Mahony, adopting my views of professional duty, and offering me for that professional and limited duty the enormous fee, or rather bribe, of 9001. If I had been disposed, as the Times says, to " hurter" for a larger fee, I have no doubt that I had but to say the word, and the fee would hare been converted into one thou sand guineas. _ _ A NEW EDITION.

I accordingly, in my reply, totally de clined to be Counsel for Lord George Beresford. But I did so in the most conciliatory manner pos sible. In that letter I re-adopted all the principles of liberality professed by the Beresfords, and I put my refusal to accept the retainer on the very civil, but, I believe, untenable, ground of Parliamentary duty. 'Liberal PrC;testatits and Catholics! You will not vote for him. Catholics, you cannot vote for him. Read his election petition to Parliament; were there ever more atrocious calumnies against the Catholic religion ? Has he retracted one word of it ? Oh, not one word! Read the specch which he allowed to be published in his name at Armagh. Was there ever any thing more horrible than the calumnies that speech contains against the Catholic religion ? Has he retracted any part of it ? Not one tittle. On the contrary, he re-asserts it all, for that is the only meaning that can be given to his declaration, " that his principles are unchanged." Now, I ask, how after this it is possible for any Catholic to support Lord George Beresford ? If any Catholic votes for him he thereby gives his sanction to all this unretracted calumny and vitu peration—such Catholic becomes a direct party to all the abuse poured out upon his religious opinions and upon the conduct of the Catholic Laity and Clergy, including their late Rev. Bishop. In fact, he trampled on the remains of the venerated Dr. Kelly. What Catholic can be so base as to walk over his grave in order - to vote for Lord Geerge Beresford ?

They have, for interested motives, falsified what they call their own prin ciples. Nobody is surprised at that. They have foully calumniated me. That is part of their sys tem. I now defy them to publish the entire corre spondence. Let there be no mere garbled extracts. Let them either acknowledge their turpitude by si lence, or let them publish the entire correspondence. I certainly should not attach much value to this incident of the offer to retain me, and of my refu sal; but that the Beresfords, by seducing part of the Dublin and Cork press, and by hiring the Lon don Times, have shown how important they deem it to calumniate me. No less than three leading articles of that newspaper to have been devoted to one poor falsehood, and an altered version of it. Let us, however, bear in mind those things that the Beresfords have thus exhibited, those characte ristic propensities which render them toTally unfit to be trusted. Trust them not, men of Waterford ! They would buy you and sell you, and flatter you, and cajole, and then oppress you. Off with the Beresfords—shake them off for ever.

Electors of Wa terford was there ever yet a suare.abominahle per secution► than that the Beresfords carried on against the forty-shilling freeholders ? Why were they per secuted ? Because they voted according to their consscienees ? The satellites of the Beresfords talk of oblivion of the past. Be it so. I talk of the present. There are at this moment twenty-three families of those freeholders who have been driven abroad from their houses and homes by the Beresfords for hay ing voted honestly. I gave the list to Mr. Mahony for two purposes—first, to ascertain its correct ness—secondly, to see whether mere shame would induce the Beresfords to act towards these poor crea tures with common humanity. Alas ! what has been the result ? That the fatal list is correct, and that the poor people are left to starve! Sacred God ! and does this man dare to trample on private confidence, public principle, humanity, patriotism, and religion, and expect to be again re turned for Waterford ! There is in London a newspaper called the Times, conducted with consummate skill and great talent. Its circulation is of the mast extensive kind, but it affords a melancholy instance of the most wretched venality. The tawdry female who, with rouged cheeks, and clad in faded silks, takes the air in "the Strand" by gas-light, is not a more thorough prosti tute in person, in heart and soul, than the talented, wide•circulated Times newspaper. That journal was accordingly selected by the Beresfords for the circidAtion of those calumnies against me. It was repeated no less than three times in one number that I had at first agreed to accept the Bresford retainer, and, although the writers of that journal have since been conscious of the untruth of that allegation, yet the only apology or compensation they have made to me is by devoting another leading article to another version of the same untruth.

People of Waterford wish to preserve your confidence, in order that you may listen to the ad vice which, for your good, I offer you. I therefore assert to you that 1 have not been guilty of counte nancing, in any degree whatsoever, the claims of the Beresfords. I rejected their bribe; for, in spite of the steady affectation of the Dublin Evening Post, Mr. Winston Barron was right in calling it a bribe. I rejected their bribe, and I was guilty of no other crime than that of believing the Beresfords could be sincere in the assertion of a liberal principle, and in being civil to their new professional agent, who was my personal friend. I was wrong, to be sure, in believing them sincere when they professed libe rality of principle, but I could not choose but to be civil . to the agent whom they selected to correspond with me. Men of Waterford! rally for old Ireland, hu manity, patriotism, and religion ! Scout the ill omened Beresfords from the hustings. Ten-pound freeholders, avenge insulted nature, outraged Chris tianity. Forty-shilling freeholders that were ! sur round the voters with your cries, your entreaties, your commands ; tell them they are your and your country's trustees. Let the famishing wives, the starving mothers, the fading and perishing children, strew the route of the Beresfords to the hustings with their groans and water it with their tears. But let them then cast up an eye of hope and noble daring, and bold up a laurel of. victory to that friend of free dom who shall honestly and fearlessly oppose the ever odious Beresfords. ss. per ton.

We do not notice any alteration in the value of Oats ; the general runs offering from the farmers are light and ill-conditioned, such are difficult to quit. Good Beans sell readily at last week's prices, but any thing be low this sells slowly. There has been a fair demand for Malting Barley, and last week's prices have been fully supported. No alteration since our last in the value of either Rapeseed or Linseed. Wheat, Old —s. 595. 60i Foreign —s. 5Ss. (13,. .In bond Oats Poland --s. 20s 21 s , _ _ • ... Old --s. 265.

Since Saturday a number of vessels have arrived coast wise and from Ireland, but our millers being much better supplied with English Wheats, have been enabled to hold off the purchasing hish ; prices have consequently under gone little variation. Oats having become scarce, prices are creeping up. No Malting Barley on sale, and Grind ing qualities have supported previous rates. Beans and Pease unaltered. Indian Corn is in fair demand, and rather dearer. Flour commanded an advance of fully ls. per sack. Oatmeal was also 6d. per pack dearer. Other ar tieles remain as previously noted.

Mr. Winston Barron was quite right in saying that the Beresfords are as treacherous in the violation of individual con fidence as they arc notoriously devoid of any one sentiment of public utility or public virtue. That correspondence occurred thus. At the last election the Beresfords employed as their conducting agents the Messrs. Tandy, very skilful and respect able solicitors, who still continue to possess, as I doubt not they deserve, their confidence. But on this occasion the Messrs. Tandy were superseded, and the Messrs. Mahony appointed. Those gentle men are not only my most particular and kind friends, but they had actually been my very useful and suc cessful agents on the Clare election petition before the House of Commons. The Beresfords opened a communication with me through these my esteemed friends. The first letter I got was sent to me in Clare, where I was attend ing the registry. It was written in such strict con fidence that it contained a request that I should de• stroy it so soon as I should have read it. I did de stroy it accordingly. It would be curious if the Beresfords presented a copy of that letter, whilst they got me to destroy the original. Every body feels that the Beresfords have pub lished garbled extracts of my letter, the tie of con fidence no longer binds me. I therefore proceed to describe that letter. It constituted the most distinct pledge of altered principles on the part of the Beresfords—the moat emphatic declarations of a total change of sentiment in Lord George Beres ford. Bigotry was disavowed, intolerance was con demned, and it was impossible to describe a more altered man than the aforesaid Lord George Beres ford. But maik, by way of parenthesis, this aforesaid Lord George Beresford, who authorised his agent to make such representations to m e , h as hi m self, in his last address, publicly proclaimed, " that his principles are unchanged." Oh, th ese B eres fords are false, very, very false. The letter went on to urge the oblivion of all former feuds—the commencement of a new era of forgetfulness of the past and of kindness for the future; and it concluded by urging me by every tie, private and public, to set an example for my What hereditary traits of character does not this incident exhibit. First, strict confidence sought for by the Beresfords, easily obtained from me, then grossly violated by them; secondly, professions of liberality of the most distinct and popular nature so lemnly put forward to deceive, and, when that failed, then, in the public address to the passions of the party they formerly deserted and betrayed, they re turn again to the old bigotry and intolerance—" their principles verily and indeed are unchanged ;" and thirdly, failing to seduce me by deceit or mot►ey, they take their revenge by calumniating me almost as virulently as they formerly calumniated and foully and falsely outraged the Catholic clergy and people of Waterford, arid their ever revered and now almost departed prelate, the venerable and venerated Right Rev. Dr. Kelly. People of Waterford;—l conjure you to rally against the re-assumptien of power by these Beres fords. Are they to be permitted to turn your great and manly county into a rotten borough once more ? Is the glorious triumph of 1826 to be rendered void by trick, and dexterity, and management ? By brib ing one portion of the press, seducing another, and deceiving and deluding all ? Mr. Winston Barron was certainly guilty of a fault. lam sincerely sorry for it, because I have much regard for him, and 1 think he would have made an active, useful, and patriotic member of Par liament. But does his fault constitute any merit in Lord George Beresford ? Mr. Winston Barron's fault was consenting, on any terms, to submit to the Beresfords; and ate the Beresfords to be benefited by that fault ? Can any man act this inconsistent part—first, to refuse to vote for Mr. Winston Bar ron because he offered to support the Beresfords, and then, after refusing his vote to Mr. Winston Barron on that ground, to do the very thing he thus condemns by voting for the Beresfords ? Impossible. Has not your county many men suited to repre sent you, not nominally and for their own profit, but really and for your good ? Where are the Mus graves, the excellent Musgraves, the best of good men ? Where are so many others who would do honour to your choice ? Be not deceived, be not deluded; rally for Waterford again ? Let us have another public meeting—Villiers Stuart will, I dare say, do all he can for us ; let us have another can didate; let us have one of your liberal and enlight ened Protestant resident gentry if you can; the Ca tholics owe to them a deep debt of gratitude—the Protestants respect them—let us have one of them if we can. If not, let us have a Catholic gentleman who will possess the confidence of all persuasions. You have such amongst you. Let us determine to return a candidate free of expence—lrish patriotism is capable of exertion.— Let no further time be lost. A county meeting—a candidate to be put to no expence—and a defeat to toryism and the Beresfords ! Men of Waterford, it is very easy to do it all. Why should you return Lord George Beresford ? What one quality does he possess to render him a fit representative ? Has he talents ? He has never shown them. Has he the capability of expressing the wants and wishes of his constituents ? The man: cannot speak ten sentiments of grammatical English if he were to be made commander-in-chief for it. Next, what are his claims on the score of public virtue ? When has he ever voted for the people and against the Minister? When has his vote been found otherwise than in the most strict accordance ith his private and personal interests ? Does he promise you to resist any of the evils that oppress you ? Will he agree to reform Par liamentary corruption—to lessen the load of taxation ' to abolish grand jury jobbing—to repeal the sub letting act or the vestry bill—to diminish tithes—to extinguish corporation monopoly and all the grinding oppression of our corporate bodies—to tax absentees —to supply a due provision for the destitute poor— to regulate the funds for education, so as to extend them to all who want them—to cleanse the Augean ; Men of Waterford ! I will soon be amongst you again. My voice may be feeble and my influence weak, but the ardour of my exertions and the mis conduct of our adversaries will give me strength and support, and Waterford will (lace again set an ex ample to the friends of liberty all over Ireland. 1 am, and ever shall be, fellow-countrymen, Your obedient servant, DANIEL O'CONNELL. Among other fish, of which I once partook at Leith, there was one I had neither seen nor heard of be fore, a sea cat; the head and tail like those of a cat, but the flesh very white, and exceedingly firm. I could have been well enough satisfied with the sight of it as a curio sity, without tasting it; but was over-persuaded by the good company, and found it an admirable a fish, rather beyond a turbot. I inquired whether they had any way of• preserving such a creature alive, so that it might be brought by sea into England, but was told that it had been tried several times to no purpose.— Calamy's Life and Times. THE WEATHER.---The weather continues mild for the season. Yesterday morning the thermometer stood at 47, and in most of the gardens we have visited of late, China roses and many other flowers and flowering shrubs, are still seen flaunting in nearly all their summer pride. The early sown wheats look remarkably healthy, and seem to have obtained already that firm hold of the ground which enables them to withstand the severest weather. The pastures where at all hained in summer, still afford the kine a comfortable bite, but generally speaking, they are barer lay a half than they were last year at the same period. The potatoes have turned out better than was expected, particularly as to quality, and the turnips, though small, are as fresh and sound as we ever saw them in the month of December. As regards the elements, the farmer, in a word, has little to complain of, and if the markets were higher or rents lower, he would be one of the most contented of his Majesty's subjects. Though prices are drooping or stationary at present, we still expect that grain will start in spring, and by the time the daisy glints on: the sod, there is &so good reason to hope that the cattle trade will become better worth following. Beef, which sells from 3d. to 6d. per lb. is scarce thus far, and of inferiour quality. This arises from the superabundance of moisture, which, while it rougheued the pastures, rendered them less nutritious, Mutton brings from 311. to 4d., and though lots of wed ders are seen feasting on turnips, the intrket at present it chiefly supplied with old ewes. —D umfries Courier, Dec. 8. (Vram the Montreal Gozet'c.) We promi-A in our feet to les' before (Sur readers some deteils in relation to :Ire late exoe di:lon up the St. Maurice, and v,e, now are en ' shied to redeem our promise. It will be recollected that Messrs. F. A. La rossque, T. Pothier, and P. de Roellehlave, were appointed by his Excellency the A: iisinistrator, as Commissioners to carry into rifts t the provi sions of an Act of the last Session, which grant ed the sum of 5001. for the purpose of exploring tiie t.itintry lying between the St. Maurice and Ottawa Riven, These gentlemen, on receiving (their appointmeuf g made preparations for enter ing upon the executioft of the trust confided to them, and acceded to the offers made to theca bY Lieut. frigid', of the 15th, and Ensign Nixon, of - the 66th Regiments, who had Toluntecred their services upon the expedition. These gen ! denten, with M. Bouchette, the Depute Sur veyor-General, left Three Rivers about the end of Itstglet last, in three canoes, with scve .wen, under the cot - hi-4RA of Lieut. Ingall, and .pro ceeded to Point a hi }Liebe, above the Forges, on the River St. Maurice, where dr. Bouchette left the party, and returned to Quebec. The remainder of the expedition proceeded to the Rat River, which falls into the St. Maurice, on its western bank, about 81 miles above - Three Rivers, and at which the Hudson Bay Com pany have a trading pests There the party re mained for nearly three weal, until the Corn- Minis:mos wire enabled to stsnd up John .Adams, Esq.ksitet *ti astronomer rid surveyor to the expedition, in lieu of Mr. Bouchette.— Having heard that a tract of - fine fertile land .would be found westward of the fir. Maurice, the party made a tour into the interior, and visited a series of lakes, 14 in number, which disem bogue themselves into the Milk River, a branch of the Vermillion River, which falls into the St. Maurice, northward of the Rat. Not succeed ing in the object of their search, the expedition returned again to Rat Piver, from whence they proceeded to ascend the St. Maurice. They passed the post which the King's Post Com pany have established at La 'fugue, about 100 miles from Three Rivers, and continued their course along the .St. Maurice, till they ar rived at the mouth of the Vermillion, The St. Maurice here becomes very much ;liter ruptcd by rapids, mid it is usual with the traders to ascend the Vermillion, and then through a chain of small lakes with portages to re-enter the St. Maurice, some distance above. This route the expedition followed, and shier re-enter ing the St. Maurice, ascended the course of that stream till they reached Wemoatichingue, Isbere the St. Maurice is divid-d into three branches ; at this place, situated in 47. 88. N. lat. the Hudson's Bay and King's Post Companies have trading stations. Up one of these branches, which had a westerly course, the expedition as cended, and met with a most extraordinary chain of lakes and navigable waters, which probably has not its parallel in Canada or any other country. The number of these lakes is stated at twenty-three, varying in size and depth, of the greatest of which, called Kempt Lake, after his Excellency the Administrator, the expedition were occupied twelve days in making the circuit. In many cases the water was found - upwards, of forty fathoms, the party not being enabled, for want of lines, to sound any farther. On issuing from this chain of lakes, the party struck upon the River Au Lievre, at a distance of about 120 miles west of the St. Maurice, but which dis tance was materially increased by the delay occa sioned by a - minute survey of the • outlines and indentations of each lake, which made, perhaps, upwards of 2000 miles of navigation. After striking the Au Lievre and issuing from the lakes, the party were occupied eight days in descending it, till they entered the Lac des Sables, an extension of that river, ' and at which a private fur trading post is established. At the outlet of that lake, the Hudson's Bay Company have also a post. From the outlet of the Lae Des Sables to the entrance of the Au Lievre, twenty-five miles, several clearances and settlements have been made, and mills have been erected by Mr. Bow man. The Au Lievre River, in the distance between the lakes and the Ottawa, has twenty three portages, which makes its navigation rather difficult. From the Au Lievre, the party des cended the Ottawa direct to this city, and after leaving the canoes at the canal, arrived once more in comfortable quarters at Tipson's hotel. The Officers of the expedition represent the country traversed over as being generally uninte resting; that portion between Wemontichingue and the Au Lievre and along the banks of that river as being in some places sandy, upon. which the principal timber found was poplar and birch, and in other places high rocky cliffs, bounding the margin of the lakes. The land, however, improved gradually after they passed the Lac des Sables, and approached the Ottawa, the al luvial soil appeared gradually to gain in strength, and afforded better prospects of settlement than in any other part of their route. The country lying between Wernontichingue and the Au Lievre is the hunting grounds of the Tetes des Boules, a nation which now cannot number 200 souls, from the ravages of small pox and the gradual decrease which seems to be destroying the Aborigines of America. Their characters have been described as being none of the most amiable. The fur-bearing animals are not very plenteous, and the Indians complain much of the inroads of the Abenaquis from the settlements, who trespass on their hunting grounds, and they talk of making a representa tion to the Colonial Executive to put a stop to this evil. No very extraordinary features were presented by the mineralogy of the country. No indica tions of coal or any of the metals, to any extent, were perceptible, and though some slight ap pearances of lead were manifested, yet they were not of a nature to warrant the ore being worked. Lead ore is said to abound on the Gatineau, but the appearance of the country traversed by the expedition, if continued westward, would seem to cast a doubt on the assertion. The waters of these inland lakes abound with trout, pike, dories, and other fish of the finest quality, but game is not ♦ery plentiful. The expedition have enjoyed the best of health during their absence. The result of their ti ip serves to prove the existence of a grand water communication from the Saguenay to the Ot tawa at Hull, which in centuries hence may prove advantageous for military purposes.
