It is not to be concealed, however, that le least e s it ib 40 ven Out of .the eight were common-place ballads: it whom ., ~r ne of them miserable effusions, extremely fit for arectea L e ITP London minstrels and their barrel-organs. The opinion 10 kt St we shall name—" I've been roaming !" was nmercial lun g by Miss Stephens—who was in excellent voice, may hal eb 44,1 was rapturously received by her Lancashire ad ith of ire 's-- Mr. H. Phillips unites unusual requisites are not 119 b hi S Own person, and his elegant and feeling man ner of decl a i m i ng ( we s h a ll venture to call it) in a s imple Ballad, ought to be studied by every musical Professor. The articulation is as distinct as the best r 4 blic o ra t ors we h ave ,— no Mean accomplishment a Vocalist, and one which English singers do not !tdilciently attend to; but Phillips does not think it beneath his dignity to attend the performances of the Italian Opera, where this superiority over our t '‘'Fo vocalists is most remarkably exemplified. We could say more, but " verbum• sat." His " Maid of Llanwellyn" received the honour of an encore.— Aelligrini does not appear to have made the due im ,Possion upon the Lancastrians ;—the broader farce ( If De Begnis is more to their taste, we take it.— Madame Caradori had an apology (somewhat dry and equivocal by the bye) made for her, through the medium of Mr. E. Taylor, which did, not ap- Pear unctuous enough for our Manchester friends ; d as it proceeded from a rival ei-devout manu facturer of Norfolk, it was not over much re lished, It was apparently not requisite either,—for We never remember to have listened to Caradori's bewitching efforts with more complacent admire- We must suppose that the apology was I c ictated by something more substantial than the ~maladie d u pays ," f or s h e a ctually had a se cond one offered, excusing her appearing in the Finale to the second Act. Miss Love was .encored au the ballad, " She never blam'd him, never;" and t he succeeding glee (in the ballad style, too), re ", i!ed a similar token of respect ! Miss Paton la boured under a smart attack of cold, sufficiently ap parent, y e t she proceeded to her duty, divested of t he asSistance of Mr. E. Taylor's apologetic qualifi cations, and obtained the heartiest encore of the night, in her feeling and subdued expression of ,the l mobjectionable and beautiful Irish air " Savourneen I) "iish." The next decided encore was .to Madame Stockhausen's " Swiss Airs." But why does not this unaffected and fascinating mountaineer stick to the text, and thus permit her admirers to enjoy the fall benefit of her matchless efforts in this particular department ? The graceful Catalani would always command admiration by her attitudes, were she not to, utter a sound ; and in the gesticulation of " Rule ritannia," she elicited, the shouts of John Bull, Who, it must .be allowed, entertains no particular nausea when a dose of flattery is kindly administered to him. The encore was tremendous, and John evinoed his complacency and his - patriotism by roar -111 as) a bull ought, and hie natural right to do, in the chorus to this celebrated national air. Perhaps it will be thought that ballads are the order of the day here. For the honour of the art, (we had almost said human nature), the Overture to " Der Frei schutz" did receive the same mark of distinction as t he paltry " Chatison de Bourgeois." However, 4e ne may also be of opinion, that under the circum stances we have described the honour of an encore t flaY be well deemed to be of an equivocal descrip lina- Be this as it may, it never was more beatiti -1 r ullY executed, although Signor Puzzi (primo corno) did think proper to be invisible at its first perform ance --Why so ?we would ask. The " Grand Sym- Phony of Beethoven, in C," was a noble speci "nen of the precision of the well-selected or chestra, which was, indeed , m os t adm i rably led BY Mori, who appeared to he more comfort able than is usual with him upon such oc 'elisions- It is with regret we revert to ought that savours of disappointment; but the mat-ar rangement of the orchestra upon the stage is of so Palpable a kind, and, as we are of opinion it is one that is easily susceptible of amelioration, we shall allude to it. The entire mass of the orchestra is quite behind the proscenium !—a fault ; but what is Yet more incomprehensible, the roof, back, as well as sides of the same, are composed of calico ! than Which nothing mare ingenious could have been in vented for the frightful absorption of sound and resonance. The consequences to the audience are an almost total deprivation of the grander effects that Must have arisen by the orchestra being thrown at least nine feet more forward,....and an artificial pro acenium, consisting of the usual and best means, • by boarding closely the back, roof, and sides, by Which alteration the vibration of the instruments Would be concentrated and thrown forward into the body of the theatre, as at Birmingham, Liverpool, Edinburgh, and London.

Three troops of the gaiiaPt Enniskillen Dra toot& halted in Bury on Monday, on they route from Ips wich to the hod-quarters of the regiment at Chesterfield, in Derbyshire.

Verily believing that too many of the faction in this country, are at this moment on the spring for blood—deeply convinced too, that nothing can pos sibly give greater pleasure to those infatuated men, or more injure Ireland, than any, even the slightest appearance of turbulence among the people—under such impression we hail, with unmingled satisfaction the proceedings of the Association for the past week —the no less wise than eloquent oration of Mr. Shiel ; the resolutions discountenancing all such processions as have lately marked a neighbouring county—the very excellent address to the people of that county, drawn up by Mr. Conway--the spirit of prudence and fortitude by which the advisers of.i the Catholics of Ireland are clearly animated and directed. The very moment that we learned that the people of Tipperary had appeared in a peculiar costume, that moment we said, " This is not the work of the Association, but it will be attributed to it. The Association then must lose no time tinad ' vising the people of Tipperary, and we trust the advice will not be disregarded." The recommenda tion which we anticipated has now gone forth, and it is confidently to be hoped that it will he efficaci ous. Let there be no more processions—no more green jackets—no more paradings of infantry and cavalry. Such things can be of no service to the popular cause—they may be of serious detriment to it. So much for the South. Now for the North—Whilst we would keep the peasantry in the South free from even the suspicion of turbulence, we would also deem it. judicious not to give to the Orangemen of the North even the shadow of an apology for outrage, We have, we confess, serious doubts as to the policy of continuing the mission of Mr. Lawless. We repose the most unbounded confidence in the prudence of Mr. Law less, individually. We feel that he has the right to prosecute his course, and we are indignant that that course should be obstructed; but these matters are not now the considerations. We ask ourselves will the Orangemen oppose physical force to Mr. Law less's progress, and will that,progress furnish them with an opportunity for sUdding blood. We refer our readers to Mr. Lawless's last despatch for infor mation on this subject. It has alarmed us, and still we fear that it is an imperfect communication. The Evening Mail assures its friends that three thousand armed blood-hounds assailed Mr. Lawless's cavalcade at Balliboy, and that one Catholic life was spilled out on the occasion. We must say, that if the Orangemen must spill lives, we would have them first exercise their hands on his Majesty's forces. There can be but little science displayed in cutting down an unarmed population. Accounts say that arms are going down from Dublin in large quantitieS to the demi-Orange coun ties. Be it so. We trust that they will be soon in possession of his Majesty's Government. This, at least, we ought to expect. " Arm all, or disarm all, is the alternative of fairness." We say, " disarm all." We know not fear, but we want not blood.— Cork Mercantile Chronicle. ALARMING STATE OF TIPPERARY. DUBLIN, MONDAY.—The following are extracts from letters received from Tipperary : " Nenagh, Sept. 28, 3 o'clock, p. m. " I hope that no time will be lost in sending down the Address of the Association to the peasantry of this county. Such a meeting of well appointed men, both horse and foot, dressed in ribbons, and carrying banners, was never before beheld here as on last Sunday. There were about 30,000 mew as sembled, but on this day some thousands of them marched through this town to the next place of ren dezvous, Borrisokane and Cloghjordan, where 56,000 dressed men are expected. At the latter place, and at Shinrone, the Orangemen and the remnants of the Cromwellites, who thicken in the barony of Lower Ormond, have been preparing for their approach this last week ; and I understand that Lord Oxmanton, with 500 military from Parsonstown, intend opposing the entrance of the people into Shin rone, for the purpose of preventing them from coming in collision with the Orangemen. We have pre vailed on the greater part of the people of this and some of the surrounding parishes, to remain at home —as, though the magistracy well know that the objects of the assemblage are peaceable, yet to aid the Brunswickers, if a row could be kicked up, would serve their cause. There are a few well meaning gentlemen iu the commission of the peace in this neighbourhood, but the greater part of their worships know but little of law; they are highly honourable men otherwise, but I believe they all agree in hating the Catholics, and, in my judgment, they are more to be pitied than blamed, as their hatred tends to injure the country, and consequently their own interests. I imagined that the contend ing factions here would have only made up their quarrels; but now the whole population of the country turn out to shew the " union of love" (as they express themselves) which they bear towards each other. In some instances they have served notices on the respectable farmer and shopkeeper not to absent themselves from these meetings; and where such notices have not been attended to, they have broken into their houses. This is, indeed, a very bad state of things. " HALF-PAST THREE....-Tile Rev. Mr. Moylan, P.P. of the parishes of Portroe, &c. prevailed on about 1000 men to return to Killaloe. They were returning, when four armed police presented them selves at Castleborgh barracks, six miles from this, and snatched a life from the band man, at the same time levelling their pieces at the people. The pea santry closed, and knocked the police down, and broke into the barracks. All the police and military here have been ordered out to the scene of action ; and the population of this town are in a very excited state of feeling, as a report prevails that the priest of Portroe has been shot. " FOUR o'CLocx.—I open my letter to state that the Rev. Mr. Moylan and, as I understand, Mr. Gabbett, son of the Protestant Rector, are bringing the police prisoners to Nenagh, under a military escort, for having attacked the people. " HALF-PAST FOUR O ' CLOCK.—Since I put my letter into the post-office, I have derived the follow ing facts from the Rev. Mr. IVloylan and the Rev. Mr. Ryan, as to the conflict between the police and the people at Castleborgh. Mr. Moylan addressed about 6,000 people at his chapel this morning, incul cating peace and good order, and recommending them not to proceed to the places o rendezvous— Borrisokane and Cloughjordsn. His advice had the desired effect, and the people were returning home, when, as they passed the police barracks, the ser geant of the party snatched a fife from one of the people, and trampled it under foot—lie was imme diately knocked down. Two of the police then came out wish their guns. and snapped them at the people, but they missed fire in consequence of being wet. The entire of the police (seven in number) then turned out, but they were immediately beaten into the barracks. The priest was quickly on the spot, with the Rev. Mr. Gabbett, the Protestant Rector, and his son. Through their exertions the people were drawn from the barracks, which they had been tearing dawn on the police, and the latter were permitted to retire, 'bat facing their tire arms to the people. They were 'pursued into Castlelough House, the residence of Mi. An thony Parker. That gentleman who is a popu lar Magistrate, gave them protection; but at the of his life and property, as the enraged people w ho pursued them cvouul have burned the house, but for the interposition of the priest. The main body of the people, who remained at the . harrackS, tore it down, and burned every thing in it to ashes. An express came into town, with an account of these transactions, to Mr. Finch, a Magistrate of that neighbourhood, who was at church here. He forthwith s et ofi, accompanied by a detachment of twenty soldiers, and a Mr. .Smithick at their head, with an Orange handkerchief wrapped round his pistol t o k ee p out the rain. Mr. Finch and his party met Mr. Moylan coining into Nenagh, and cried out to him, s Mr. Moylan, you have the worst con ducted parishioners in the county— they have torn down the barracks.' The clergyman replied, 'lt is not true, Mr. Finch; but your ill-conducted police have been the cause of all this trouble.' We have not heard what the soldiers have since done. The clergymen have returned to their parishes, to endea vour to keep the people quiet. It is to be lamented that the false report of Mr. Moylan's being shot flew through the country like wildfire, and if any oppo-sition be given to the people they are in a furious mood." Detachments of military have been ordered from Limeriek to Tipperary. It is said that a Privy Council is at this moment sitting at the Castle, and, it is stated that the county of Tipperary will be forthwith proclaimed; the Government taking upon itself the responsibility of the act, on the strength of a bill of indemnity being carried in the next Ses sion. It is generally believed, however, that such a step will not be taken by Government, or, at all events, that the Marquis of Anglesea will wait for instructions from the other side of the water. I n the mean time, hopes are entertained that the Ad dress from the Association (copies of which, to the amount of many thousands, have been despatched to Tipperary) will be productive of the best effects in tranquillizing the minds of the people, and restoring good order. Indeed, it is acknowledged on all hands, that if the police had not interfered, the public tranmillity would not have been disturbed. NORTHAMPTON, OcT. 1. On Monday last, being Michaelmas Day, the heads of the corporate body of this town walked in procession (with banners flying, and attended by a band of music) to All Saints' Church, where divine service was performed. They after minis proceeded to the Town-hall, where J. Beauclerk, Esq., took his •seat on the Bench for the first time, as Recorder of the town. Mr. John Marshall was then sworn into the office of Mayor, and Mr. William Nippin and Mr. Hugh Higgins into that of Bailiffs for the ensuing year. In the afternoon a very sumptuous and well-arranged dinner was provided by the Mayor, at the George L►n (Mr. K. Higgins.) The cloth removed, the wine, the toast, and the song, came in successive route, and many • were the peals that followed the various toasts of the day, from among which we select the following : " The King," with four times four. " Duke of Clarence and the Royal Family." " Lord Hill and the Army." " The Duke of Wellington and his Majesty's Ministers." " Earl Westmoreland, Lord Lieutenant of the County." " The Members for the County." W. R. CARTWRIGHT, Esq. returned thanks, and proposed " The Mayor." Mr. MARSHALL returned thanks. " Protestant Ascendancy." " The Brunswick Clubs throughout the kingdom." " The Duke of Newcastle." " Lord Eldon," and " Admiral Eyles," &c. &c. The company did not break up till a late hour, and the whole of the evening passed with the highest hilarity and good humour. • NIONNIOUTH MURDER. WEDNESDAY, OCT. l.—The Coroner's Jury completed their inquiries yesterday afternoon, about four o'clock, after sitting three days ; when they returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder against Edward Barnett." The principal witness examined yesterday was the husband of the deceased, who, in giving his evidence, was much affected, but still answered the questions in a satisfactory manner. He had, it appears, been generally indulgent to the deceased, to whom he had been married about six years. She had been long in the habit of receiving his wages from a person named Davies, his em ployer, and was always left in charge of the key of their dwelling when at home. For the last three or four weeks she had been absent, and a report had been spread that she, in company with two other women, had been committed to -Cardiff gaol for robbing a man in Glamorgansbirt of about 701. During the absence of the wife, Barnett called. on the husband, and said that he had some business in the neighbourhood of Newport, and he would ascer• min whether the report was correct. Barnett after, wards called at Stephens's house, and left word that the report of his wife's committal was untrue. Stephens subsequently heard that Barnett had been seen in company with his wife in the lower part of the county, but he had not seen him for a month. He was told that Barnett had been inquiring for him last Saturday, when he replied, " the d-1 take him, I don't want him." He (Stephens) met his wife the same day at noon on the bridge, when she appeared unwell, and he said, " Ah ! you don't look any better for your last spree." She said, " What did you leek me out for ? you shan't do it again." He said, "Well, come home ;" and she shortly after followed him. On her coming in, he asked where she had been ? She said she had that morning come from Landoga (a village about half way be tween Chepstow and Monmouth), and that she had been working at Carleon and Newport. On going out, about an hour afterwards, he left nine or ten shillings with her, to provide something for Sunday's dinner, saying be should be at home about mid-day. Some of his fellow bargemen had called for him, and he immediately went down the river with the barge, in which he remained, until coming up the river, on Sunday morning, he was informed of the murder. He swore to the two bloody knives as his property, saying that they were kept with other knives and forks in a table drawer. The jacket he swore was Barnett's, he knew it by its being darned at the elbow ; the hat, high shoes or quarter boots, and the handkerchief he could not swear to ; they were not however his . property, nor was a watch which was found in the house; but this was proved by a watchmaker to have been in the possession of Edward Barnett, and Mr. Thackwell, one of the Jurors, said that it was formerly the property of Barnett's father. " The money," Stephens " said, "is not mine, nor the bag which contained it. He had left but a few shillings at home, and was never posSessed of ten pounds at one time in his life. He had been for several months dissatisfied with the conduct of his wife, who had occasionally left him for days together; he had never ill-treated her except once that she had provoked him very much, when he knocked her down, but that was a long time ago. On going into the house in company with Morgan, the constable ; on Sunday, be found. in addition to the small quantity of provisions which he had left, a whole large loaf, about a pound of salt butter, and a greater quantity of tea and sugar. A quantity of clothe:;, coyered With blood, taker off the body of the deceased were shown, and the gown, a yellow cotton one, he swore to as her's, as .well as a handkerchief, and he believed the rest were her's. The evidence of Mr. Thomas, a surgeon, went to prove the Fittlation in which lie found the body when called in. It zvas lying op the left side, the knee:; drawn towards the stomach; he assisted in putting it on a table, and on examination found that the throat was cut from the angle of one jaw to the angle of the other ; the canals communicating with the stomach and lungs being divided, as well as three of the principal arteries of the neck, the wound extending t,'-) the vertebrae, or flexible coliimp of lone connecting Ole head 'with "the" body. - The Wound appeared to have been inflieted With a blunt instrument, the flesh and cartilages being much mangled, and he believed that the piece of cartilage which adhered to the larger knife; to have been part of the larynx. It %p 5 9utte impossible 'he conceive'd that with such instruments as were on the premise, that the woman could have cut her 'own throat in such Th t dreadful uiur 4p day been apprehended, but som e c l ue h as , w e ult. rmanner. fl(! not !It twelv e o ' c l oc k yesteT derstand, been obtained of his route, and we trust he will not long remain at large. The expenses to the county of Suffolk for the prosecution of Wit 1 LAM CORDER, lately executed for were 235!. DRURY-LANE THEATRE. This theatre opened last night for the season, and was honoured with a full, and considering the period of the year, a fashionable audience. The great novelty of the evening was Mr. YouNG's first ap pearance for five years (on these boards) in the character of Hamlet--a character which he selected for his first debut, and in which he won deserved applause. On the present occasion he went through this most difficult of all parts with even more than ' his usual tact and intelligence, and in the closet scene exhibited with much effect all the fine charac teristics of his school. Miss ICEI,Lv's Ophelia, the finest on the stage, and this is not saying much for it--was distinguished by the delicate tone of its sensibility—her insanity was in the truest spi►it of pathos—her modulation touching in the extreme; especially her delivery of that passage so true to nature, where a burst of feeling struggles through madness, " I would give you some flowers, but they withered all when my poor father died." Mr. TERRY'S Polonius was judicious, and Mr. HARLEY as one of the Grave Diggers threw more whim than humour into his part. The sterling farce of Simp son and Co. followed, in which TERRY resumed his favoured character of the jealous merchant. We should not omit to mention that a Mr. LEE made his debut as Laertes, in Hamlet, but with very moderate success. COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE. That entertaining pastoral drama, As You Like It,' was selected for the opening performance last night. It is a hazardous play, and depends wholly for sue ce4a.un the genius and fancy of its Rosalind and Jaques. Miss JARMAN undertook the former, and Mr. WARD the latter character. Both were well received, the lady especially ; who, however, did not altogether seem at home in the very difficult sylvan beauty. She wanted the gay buoyant freedom of nature—the arch elasticity of fine health and animal spirits. Mr. WARDE, as the " melancholy Jaques," was too stiff and solemn—he mistook gravity for me lancholy; whereas one is by no means a natural ally of the other : there is nothing on earth so grave as a goose, yet it is far from melancholy. Mr. C. KEmut.E's Orlando was pourtrayed with all the trite feeling and finished acting for which he is so pecu liarly di.tinguished. The showy afterpiece of Peter Wilkins, a very entertaining pantomime, by the bye, closed the evening's amusement. FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. CHANGES.

These are nume rous and sufficiently varied to give general satisfaction. half of Our fayoUrite is " The Proposal," engraied by HUM PHREYS, from a painting by STEPIiANOF'F. This delight ful little jem is full of character and sweetness. There is no occasion to tell the story ; the picture at one glance ex plains . .. . . . delighted, the'fair young girl whd is readkng the line-letter--4he arch astonishment of the black-haired female beside her—the itself. The surprise, half serious, s'ubdned jealous look of her friend behind her—and the fond look of maternity in the lady who holds her hand —these are points that explain themselves without the slightest delay or ambiguity. Our next favourite is a " View on the Ganges," which is full of richness and picturesque expres sion, the distance is most beautifully shadowed forth ; nor must we omit the splendid engraving of MARTIN'S " Mar cus Curtius," it is every way worthy of that great ariio.

JaM WA RD AND SIMON BvarrE.—This long-talked of, and very interesting match, was concluded at Peter Crawley's on Tuesday evening, after much discussion, which occupied the parties to a late hour. Jem Ward was present. Simon Byrne was represented by Tom Spring, who acted as his agent, and negociated for him the arrange ments. The following is an extract from the articles : " To fight on a stage 24 feet square, of the usual height, on the first Tuesday in February, 1829, for 1501. a-side, 10/. a-side are now deposited in the bands of Mr. S--., who shall be stake bolder.

YANDELL AND CRAFER.-Last night the final deposit, making the whole of the stakes 10/. a-side, was made good in this match, at the Britannia, Britannia-street, Gray's Inn-lane. The fight is to take place on Wednesday next, within 20 miles of London, Yaudell has once been matched against Alec Reed, and fought upwards of an hour before he gave in ; the other has never appeared in the London ring before. Ned Stockman, commonly called the Lively Kid, took his benefit last night, at the Hope Tavern, in Blackmoor street, Drury-lane. It was numerously attended, though the principal men of the Ring were absent. The scene of act►on was an up-stairs' room in a back building, where of course the combatants were obliged to exhibit on the same floor the company occupied, the height of the apartment not admitting of a stage being erected.

STATE OF TIPPERARY.—TIia ktttrposition of the Association has already ptoduced the most gratify ing effects, and is another week we have no doubt that the p . ....acesions will be totally at an end.

It is a common characteristic of troublesome times, that one faction should charge its own offences upon another, and invoke against an ad versary the punishment due only to itself. The Catholic Association have not employed any threat of illegal violence against any portion of the King's subjects ; they have organized their people, it is most true, that all might learn to combine their efforts for a single end, and might act harmoniously together; but the end was law ful, and so were the means. The means were votes for liberal Members of Parliament, and voluntary contributions or subscriptions for the relief of brethren who should be persecuted for those votes. The end was Catholic emancipa tion. 'What, on the other hand, has been the demeanour of the Orange faction ? Islave they confined their sentiments or measures to such as were purely constitution a l ? Have they been; satisfied with proposition s to vote against the-- Catholics—to speak against the Catholics—or to resist the progress of emancipation by rea soning mankind into a conviction of its- evil isos licy ? No, the answer to the Catholics has ', seen the voyage of a certain Royal Duke to England —the enlisting of recruits for the Cusnberland legion, under the nickname of Brunswick Clui,s reorfeveovletirnyg ltehgaanl tah,:eissherorepraiit' —and the spitting forth of fire and sword against their Catholic fellow-subjects, in a thousand wrathful effusions, the burden of every one of which was a challenge of the Catholic people of Ireland to arms—to arms which the leading Ca- tholics had never ceased to deprecate : a co ,vardly challenge, too, for it was one which every fire and-sword man who uttered it excused by declar ing that England would come to his assistance. Now . is it not an atrocious wickedness to threatete men who are pursuing laWful measures by-law ful means, with opposition and overthrow by r c n a e i a l su ao re y s th s i t o il g re b e e rs n iv io e of a demand for justice by an appeal to 40fcc ... , except the insolence of attributing to ti,,, si peti tionersregreuoilftt l y i r e i:?l e v eqrsuyeuscotrhiiomnwe between w,ethieninct. until tahatebx.o,ai Catholics eaxgeoh ,i, it ei ia, from the Constitution, and Orangemen who s sio s nopolize its privileges. The Brunswick Cl u b s of Ireland—avowedly a war establUm ent _ talked only of fighting, in reply to their country liiai c i iht(iet o h of e f continue pt men, whose preparations were aimply for voting.. Yet they—the Cumberland bravoes—have h a d the boldness to charge the Catholics with, . pur poses of armed aggression, and to represent their own sanguinary proceedings as a system of loyal and constitutional" defence'. The Brunswick and Cumberland Clubs it is which have produced the late assemblage of peasants in Tipperary. We have no thought of denying that (o t im; l n i a o ltliall s lsidi e iti tdt s i N 3pen h li g: i oi eh ai scilitil o tet t i. • letters South describe o f Ireland, booiketey t tiad o t:soeo h t olinnp a nte v eeliega e rdhitytnt s ite h iti‘ser e iloh w l e:loiliricseswideeipeaceable, themselves in()11 ought I - i i E.; t t ‘i e o l o r ult l e b i le o: oc sN ee .: r p c i g r ito o:l n l a ' impar tially administered, and the Orangemen must he made sensible of its power, as well as their in tended victims. Of this we see no chance what ever, while the Orangemen are allowed to carry arms, and the Catholics- (very properly) are re strained from using them. But the police, as well as other Orange Satellites, must he checked in their intemperance, or the results will be dreadful. We refer on this point to a statement in our correspondence from Ireland, where one of these (4 peace" officers snatched a musical in strument from a peasant, and but for the exer tions of the Clergy, both Protestant and Catholic, would, with his few comrades, have been de stroyed. Admitting, then, that force must be put down by force, is that, let us ask, to be the li ng proposes permanent let in ir n e • t s e a e n t t l s r , at w l h ia il l o f a th n i s s 50,000 Cumberland Life Guards gnashing their liblrelslsetldr morega fort is maintained by the interposition of 30,000 or 40,000 regular troops, and the expense of working such a costly piece of mechanism sup plied out of Englishmen's pockets ! Ireland. if this be the fate designed for her, can never be industrious, prosperous, productive, or taxable, until she shakes off' the unnatural and monstrous yoke; but that the opportunity will be presented to her ere we live much longer, there is ample ground in the present state of Europe for fear ing. No man knows better than the Duke of Wellington how little would or could be done towards a permanent settlement of the affairs of Ireland by a successfisl campaign against the Catholics. It is ndk for' the first time that the cabins throughosat the whole country have been burned, the crops wasted, the cattle destroyed, and the persons of the wretched inhabitants nationalke infuriated?o—f lelplov'elieitailt:.: hunted through glen and mountain. And to what effect, we pray, with a view to the ends of such wicknel and frightful devastation ? The vivacious people soon rose with augmented num bers, and with more untameable ve n sr eance .— The atrocities of Cromwell produced out of which grew the once doubtfia war am4inst. b William 111., and the consequent succession of the House of Hanover. Catholic Irr:tand is now three times more populous than at the close of the 17th century. Let us assume that 10(1,000 are put to death (and it is to speak largely) in this unholy quarrel—what happens ? Five times an hundred thousand will remain, versed in war, and insatiable of vengeance. Is this, we will ask the Cumberland Clubs, then, the way to govern Ireland? - Is this to fulfil Kings any one great end s for w hich " rule, and for which God has created society ?____ No, give the men their rights ; an d i f they will become are men, they useful citizens: It is industriously reported by ; the Cumberlanders, that a very high personage has countenanced and encouraged most of these' ises which have of late enterpr been undertaken against a relaxation of the penal laws. If the fact were true, (but we do not believe the state ment), we should not hesitate to ask what right 'has. such a personage to o interfere at all in such concerns, except by those means and through those channels which the Constitution dictates ? Let the Sovere i gn choose his Ministers ; but let those Mini t s ers choose their measures, and be responsible for them. It is impossible to believe the report of a S overeign . interposing ' to throw difficulties in the way of his own official advisers, and scarcely more possible to imagine that any ' Ministers are mean enough to endure the inter. ferenee. 'We repeat that the statement is Mere dible. Well does our august and 'constit u ti ona l Nlonarch know, that when- Princes overstep their station, calamity never fails to follow. The well meant obstinacy of one King of England lost us the United States. The bigotry and ob qinacy of the Jacobin Clubbists, who swear by hi s name, would lose Ireland for us also. But
