FEDERATION• DUBLIN, W EDNESDAY NIGHT. —This association held its first me e ti ng, since the pass i ng o f the " Act for th e better Security o f t h e Crown, " & C ., this evening, in the Music Hall, Lower Abbey-street, which was crowded to excess. From the extreme violence of the different speeches delivered it could scarcely be supposed that such an enactment as that we have alluded to was in reality to be found in the statute book. The accessions to the Confederation announced this evening were both numerous and respectable, amongst whom were some Roman Catholic and one Protestant Clergyman. Mr. Hodges, the Government reporter (who, by the way, was cheered on entering the hall), and two police inspectors were present. The chair was taken by William H. O'Neill, Esq., barrister. The CHAIRMAN thanked the meeting for the honour conferred upon him, by calling upon him to preside at the first meeting of the Confederation since the British l'arliament passed a law to suppress the expression of public opinion in Ireland. Lord John Russell had stated that he wo u ld not y i eld repeal t ill hi s latest breath ; but they were th ere that night to tell the En g lish oligarchy, which oppres s ed and ground down the people of this country, that th e I r i s h were d e t e rmined to have a Par liament of their own—(Ch eers ) —that they should never cease in their exertio ns t ill I r i s hmen obtained the power of taxing themselves, and until Irishmen should fill every post of trust, honour, and emolument in this coun try, and until they succeeded in forming a National Guard.—(Loud cheers.) A proclamation had been issued by Lord Clarendon against the Council of 300, and against a National Guard; but the meeting should not be misled by that proclamation. It was not the law of the land—it was merely the opinion of the Castle authorities on the law. The Chairman, in concluding his observations, denied that the Confederates were the advocates of anarchy, or that they meditated an inroad on the rights of property or social order. Several members having been admitted, and several remittances acknowledged, Mr. T. F. MEAGHER moved the admission of the Rev. James Birmingham, P.P., of Borrisokane, a gen tleman who had become conspicuous to the Government —(Cheers)—and who, notwithstanding the censure he had incurred from his bishop, had written the holiest and most instructive letter that ever appeared in print. Mr. GAVAN DUFFY seconded the admission of the reverend gentleman. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the admission of the several members proposed, congratulated the meeting on the great accession of professional gentlemen which the Confederation had attained. preliminary ' ern affair at observations, :Ar iB. J. having ( b r e a T e r r i e s t n e c r e ) , t a o f t e r thea freene Limerick, observed that one consequence had resulted from it, and that was the resignation of Mr. Mitchell as member of the Irish Confederation. He (Mr. Dillon) was not at liberty to go into the reasons which induced Mr. Mitchell to adopt that course, but an ex planation would be given to the public before the expiration of the week. Mr. Mitchell, he might say, still possessed the confidence of the Confederation ; and he (Mr. Dillon) was willing to bear testimony to his integrity and worth. Since last he (Mr. Dillon) had had the honour of appearing before the Confederation an Act of Parliament had been passed, having for its object the suppression of the opinions of the people of Ireland on the subjects materially affecting their interests. For his part, he should say that Act should have no effect on him. Whatever he said before B ; for a e ss ping, h that Act e was passed, pr e ed h r ea t k o re e d p the e a t. p — e o ( p le l l e a t o r , hear.) arm— (Cheers)—ho asked them to arm now.—(Loud cheers.) The chairman had called their attention to the declara tion of Lord John Russell, that ho would resist the re peal of the union by force. But he (Mr. Dillon) would tell the Noble Lord that, whether ho had breath in his body or not, the union should go down—(Cheers)—down it should go into the re gions of darkness and sin. The union should perish, or the people of Ireland should perish.—(Loud cheers ) Already had that union deprived Ireland, in one shape or another, of one million of her people ; its appetite was still unsated—its jaws wero still open for another million of victims.— (Hear, hear.) lie did not know how the struggle might terminate .; ho believed that nine-tenths of the people were desirous that it should be obtained peaceably, without any distarbance of social order, without any invasion of private property ; but whether the repeal of the union be obtained peaceably or not depended, in his opinion, in a great measure on the people. The people of Ireland were determined to assert their rights, peaceably if they could ; but if, by any unconstitutional measures on the part of the British Government, they should be driven to defend their rights by arms in the field, he (11r. Dillon) would say—he would say it openly—he would say it advisedly —that the place of every true man would be in the midst of the people.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. GAVAN DUFFY (of the Nation) then rose for the' purpose of moving a resolution. lie said the meeting were aware that the English Government had thrown down a challenge to the Irish Confederation, and had issued a proclamation to :prevent the formation of the Council of 300 and a national guard. Their answer to Lord Clarendon's proclamation should be simple and distinct—they should first tear it into fragments, and then throw it to the winds. [Mr. Duffy suited the action to the word, tore the proclamation into bits, and flung it from him, amidst the most rapturous applause.] They (the Irish Confederation), continued Mr. Duffy, would stand on the ancient constitution of Ireland, which had and n not el died, eet and their w Councilhi which of should 3o n o o t die; they should go on enrol their national guard —( C r CII e s) Castle might say t o the contrary. Dubl i n Castle could not make the l aw, Dublin Castle coul d not alter 7 1 ) — la t e t v h guard—(Cheers)—whatever ry Dublinshou d the law, or turn it into any fashion.—(Cheers.) He (Mr. Duffy) had said that Dublin Castle could not make the law nor amend the law. All it could do was to advise and threaten. They would laugh at their advice, and disregard their threa ts. — (Cheers.) The answer of the Irish fiConfederation was the following:—" Resolved, That the Lord-Lieutenant having issued a proclamation against the proposed National Council and National Guard, the Confederation desire to warn the people that proclamations are merely formal notices, neither altering nor giving any new force whatever to the existing law; and they call upon the country to proceed as heretofore in their arrangements in both those matters." Mr. Duffy then proceeded at some length to urge the neces sity for an immediate union amongst Irishmen as the sole basis of success. Mr. T. F. MEAGISER then presented himself to the meeting, and was must enthusiastically received. When the cheering had subsided, he said be had been entrusted to submit to the meeting the following proclamation, drawn up by the Council of the Confederation, and signed on behalf of the Confederation by William Smith O'Brien.—(Loud cheers.) When that was issued , there would be two proclam at i ons before the publ i c: t h e name of Clarendon was atta c h e d to one—the name o f S m i t h O'Brien was attached t o t h e other. —(Ch eers .) Th e former had been already di stributed amongst t h e peop l e, and it would be seen which of the two men the people would obey.—(Cheers.) There was a most important omission in the heading of the proclamation he was about to read. It ought to be headed a B y the Sovereign People, by the grace of God, & c ,"—(Tremendous ap plause.)

Reader, remember, this letter was put into the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. " Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstoie, of the Herbary, High gale for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the heron her head, after using itabout four months, and the whole of her hair's much stronger and more luxuriant than lever was before the baldness appeared. " Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to7the virtues of Mr. G.'s llegenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an l Is. bottle it they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund ance, but as a cure of nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume iti far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any ady of respectability to the above fact .-3, Swan-street, Berough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, ale w drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, mare it strong, and prevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing odour removes headache and makes It a most necessary companion to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour tea or twelve drops on the crown of the head ; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an hour. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces hair on children's heads in a few appplications. If used on infants' heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence oa the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See pamphlet of testimonials.

Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, whi c h w h en used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becom e* , w h en abused .the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less I n j ury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on the mature and consequence of whieh this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete account of the Anatemy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can be of more importance than the preservation of the health and of the physical capabilities of which every man should be possessed. it unfortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering irons their invari able consequences, unwisely entertains a tear of ap plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so irequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes of iisease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterise the intelligent and medical man who can s h ow by Ida practical physician, and to the possession of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes -1 pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr. LANE RT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his fliplomas , emtify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

With regard to the instructions contained in the proclamation he held in his hand, and the advice which it gave, he had not the slightest doubt but the one would be obeyed, believedau d the other accepted.—(Hear, hear.) For his part hewhich there was at present a spirit in the country criminated between that which England and her Minis ters called law, and that which the Irish people recognised, and which God himself had inspired as true law.—(Hear, hear.) There was a difference between the justice which nations meted out and established and that which England proclaimed and enforced.—(Cheers.) Therefore it was that he believed that the proclamation of the Confederation would be the only proclamation which would be obeyed in this country.—(Cheers.) So far as he (Mr. Meagher) was concerned, he would obey it in its spirit, and to the very letter.—(Cheers.) Next week he intended to put forward an address to the citizens of Waterford, calling on them to elect him as their representative in the National Assembly.— (Loud cheers.) On Sunday next ho should have the pleasure of making his reque s t i n p erson . So much for the proclamation of Lord Clarendon ; now, as to the enrolment of the National Guard. The declaration in favour of the formation of a National Guard, and which had been proscribed in the Castle manifesto, was already in course of signature, and the first three names to that declaration were those of the three men now under prosecution by the Government.— (Loud cheers.) He would avoid any allusion to the proceedings at Limerick, of which they had heard such a distressing description. He would pass from that scene without allowing himself a moment's indulgence in any recrimination, because he felt that whatever in jury one Irish citizen might receive from another, the ' fir€sen t was a timeefOr mutual forgiveness—(Cheers)— and.he would rePelft What he said to the citizens of Cork on Modal, that he was ready at that moment to forgive the hand that was clenched to strike him, if that hind (pointing to heaven) gave him an assurance that it would struggle to crush the common foe. It was in that spirit he regarded the proceedings at Limerick. but in Cork there was an enthusiaasm which undoubt edly manifested that there existed in the provinces a power and the will to co-operate with the metropolis. On Monday he had the pleasure of meeting 23,000 men, who seemed animated by a spirit which, as it had out lived the insulting famine, would also outlive the Go vernment who were responsible for the lives of the people, but allowed them to perish.—(Cheers.) The third resolution proposed at the meeting to which he re ferred was a declaration calling on the people of Cork and the snrrounding districts to do that which they had heretofore so long neglected—that was, to arm.— (Cheers.) In speaking to that resolution, he (Mr. Meagher) called on the assembly to arm ; and twenty five thousand vo i ces answere d , " Wo shal arm"—(Tre mendous cheers) " We shall arm," they said, " not to sack a house ; not to confiscate a demesne ; not, indeed, to rob a jeweller's shop, or to act as robbers, but as free men. We are not ambitious to act the part of banditti; but, animated by the examples furnished by the chief cities of Europe, we desire to look for liberty as men should do who were Rot ashamed of the records of their deeds."—(Cheers.) It was (continued Mr. Meagher) that their voices might not be weak, or their petitions scouted, and when they hurled defiance they might not be laughed at, that he recommended the people to arm. Thus it was that " moral force" might at last acquire its true strength in this country, by being the representative of an armed faculty.—(Hear, hear.) Animated by these sentiments, ho called on the people to arm; and, echoing these sentiments, they responded to that call.—(Cheers.) It was scarcely necessary for him to say that the organization of the people in Cork was perfect—they acted as if they felt with one heart; they thought with one mind, and if it were necessary they would strike with one arm.—(Loud cheers.) There was no bitter animosity springing from local prejudices —there was no little enmity there dividing the national strength, and thereby giving hope and consolation to the common foe; and if the Government had reason to re joice at the occurrences which took place at Limerick— if those who reported for them—if their detectives there —if those constables that reported for them but told them the truth, they would have reason to change their joy into grief, and to feel, if there be one black spot in Ire land, that black spot was encircled with a flame in which their power would be extinguished. After some ob servations in reference to the " Gagging Bill," he pro ceeded. He had learned to value life only for the dignity which surronuded it—he had learned to value life only for the honour which it brought on him and those with whom he was connected, and on the country which gave him birth —he bad learned to value liberty of speech only that his words might be heard, and liberty of ac tion that his actions might be serviceable to his country. It was for giving expression to those sentiments that he had been prosecuted, and he recollected the precise words fur which :he had been indicted; he would repeat them that night, but the pith and substance of them was, if the last appeal which they were about to make to the Queen did not result in a concession of their demands, then he would reiterate, " Up with the barri cades, and invoke the God of battles."—(Tremendous cheers.) lie did not know whether the utterance of such words should reduce himto the, vulgar position of a felon; but be cared not, for he believed it to be the duty of every Irish citizen to speak that word which struck the Irish heart more forcibly —a word which it had long desired to hear—a word which was muttered in secret to the winds, where there were no detectives or Castle proclamations warning them to be mute—it was the duty, he said, of Irish citizens to speak that word, in order that there might spring up from the soil, as if touched by a miraculous hand, a harvest of glory, which should not be borne away from ' this island.—(Loud cheers.) In the speech for which he had been prosecuted he had alluded to the formation of an " Irish Republic." He repeated that expression. Ii the people were driven to an outbreak, as they would be if the Government per sisted in their present course, and that they were suc • cessful in that alternative, he believed that republic would be proclaimed in the council chamber of Dublin Castle. To speak honestly, he would only adopt the re publican form of government as an alternative; he would not adopt it as the first choice, but he would insist upon it as the last—he would insist on it as the price of the people's blood, in order to create a form of government that would be in eternal hostility to the power which drove them to such an extremity.— (Cheers.) To the old constitution of the country—the constitution of 1712—he would cling with veneration ; but he would mould it in conformity with the spirit of the age, and would establish it on a tomb which should consign to oblivion the animosities which had disgraced the country. Ott concluding a protracted and highly spirit-stirri ng speec h , Mr. Meagher submitted to the meeting the following resolution " Whereas the Council of Three Hundred, proposed by the late Mr. O'Connell in 1343, and now revived drve its the general wish of the Irish people, chief value from being a fair represwe;aladttioonns. of the the people of Ireland of all classes and associations.

The Ilamburgh mail furnishes no commercial news of importance. The Sound continued open to vessels of all nations except those of the German Confe deration, but we may shortly expect an en tire cessation of the blockade, as the interven tion of Lord Palmerston is accepted, and may lead to a favourable result. It will be seen that one or two firms at Glasgow and Aberdeen are in difficulties, ' and the latter, we believe, almost wholly in consequence of the derangemement of commerce in the North of Europe. A speedy solution of at least one portion of the difficulty, that affecting Denmark, would be hailed with the highest satisfaction, though it is much to be feared that Germany will some time be greatly agitated by its own internal political difficulties.

" Pending the discussion upon this Bill in the Legis lative Assembly, your Council deem e d it advisabl e toseed a deputation of three of its members to Montreal with instructions to remonstrate with th e G overnment, ' and if possible obtain a modification of the proposed scale of duties; and although the deputation did not succeed to the extent to be desired--they obtained a re duction of the duties on some articles, and amongst other alterations, the admission of certain articles used for ship building purposes, at a duty of one per cent. only. " During the last season much discussion has taken place between the Imperial Government and that of the United States, on the subject of the postal arrangements, which your Council are happy to say has resulted in our Government using the main road of the pro vinces between Halifax and Montreal, instead of paying a most exorbitant sum to the United States for the transit of the mails through their territory; and the experience of the last four months clearly proves that nothing has warranted the carriage of the mails through the states, letters having reached Montreal with scarcely an exceptions, as soon, and in some instances sooner, by the Halifax mail route than if conveyed through the United States. In summer, the cost of steamboats from Pictou (should such be established) would materially add to the expenses but while these, if navigated at cheap rates of passage and freight, would prove an advantage to the lower provinces, your Council feel certain that, winter and summer united, the cost would fall infinitely short of the sum paid to a foreign Power, while the sum expended would be ex pended in the colonies, and would be of essential benefit to them. " To the shortness of the session, and the consequent limited period in which objections could be stated, are to be attributed many defects in the emigrant law just passed, which it is believed will unnecessarily cause great loss arid de9e to .the shipping interests, by com pelling. ships to land their passengers at Quebec, instead of permitting teeth as heretofore to embark those whose • rastinetion was to be to the upper country in steamers bound to Montreal; and this clause will also entail un neccessary expense and hardship upon the poor emi grants themselves."

Winter, grocers, and Mr. Skinner, tobacconist. The fire was discovered by p o li ce - constable Jones, 221, who was on duty, and observed smoke issuing from the former pre mises. lie gave the alarm, and the fire-escapes promptly attending, he with others succeeded in saving the in mates.

ROWING MATCH, --.The London Rowing Club s first match this season came off yesterday: the course was from Putney -bridge to Mortlake, and the boats came in thus:—Cornwall (red), Ist; Tuke (purple), 2d; Morgan (green), 3d; Laurie (stripes), 4th; llesketh, (yellow), sth; Jones, (blue) 6th; Wordsworth (black) 7th. The start was a very beautiful one, all getting away even. Mr. Tuke then took a decided lead, but after a short distance Mr. Morgan overtook him, and by dint of extraordinary exertions contrived to maintain the lead, but at Hammersmith-bridge fouling a barge, red and purple came up to him; from this point a game and gal lant contest ensued, lied winning by a length, and Purple defeating Green by the same space; the otherswere some distance in the rear. The winner, who displayed much skill but little strength in the race, was greatly fatigued at the finish. At s t art i ng, G reen and Purple were backed against the lot, and Red was the next favourite.
