You who have delivered your opinions, have honestly called upon any, who were of con trary opinions,to come forward and express them ; no man in the meeting raised his voice against the . measure; I am, then, to conclude that you are iina fgmously of opinion, that the Union should be te ,_pi ealed, I am of the same opinion, I have come to 'the same conclusion, upon mature deliberation.— (Here a tremendous shout of acclamation burst from the assembly, and the enthusiasm excited by this announcement was indescribable.) I have at tended my place, in Parliament with as much care and anxiety for' the welfare and interests of my country as any man iti:ihat house, and the conclu sion I have come to Englishmen are not fit to legislate for this country.—(Cheers.) This fine venerable old man, who is the lineal descendant of the Kings of Ireland,sat down amidst great cheering. Mr. E. O'BEIRNE eloquently proposed a vote of thanks to Daniel O'Connell, Esq., whom he highly eulogised. The resolution passed with acclamation. lhe High Sheriff having vacated the chair, and the O'Conor Don being called thereto, the thanks of the meeting were passed to the Sheriff, with an en thusiasm that cannot be de•cribed; and the important. meeting separated at a late hour in the evening. ~tit ,4 _ ~ .:47.7ti,A . \* -- ---7-----: N , _ • _ , .. .:. ~. 4 :- L, A . ~ _.„..„,.,. ... ~,,.. 7.7 • 4. _ No 21, 'lB3l.

Grattan refused to postpone his when the Whigs had a high character, and had done nothing to lose it— when the Whigs were not base, contemptible, mid despicable, as they are now.—(Hear.) —ln Ireland the Whigs never can put down the question of the repeal of the Union.—(Hear, hear.)—l know the Whigs well—l think that a Whig aristocracy is far worse than the Tory aristocracy. There is some thing of old gentlemanly integrity about the Tories, and many of them really think what they say—they may be mistaken in their principles, but they enter tain the conviction that those principles are right, however erroneous they are in practice. I cannot say so much for the Whigs—perhaps I Would make an exception in Lord Althorp, and in Lord Morpeth, the son of Lord Carlisle.—(Hear.) —l now ask you, if Lord Anglesea wished to promote a repeal of the Union, could he take a better course for doing so than the one he has adopted ?--(Hear.)—Lord Anglesea and the Whigs have demonstrated the necessity for a repeal of the Union.—(Hear.) —lt was well remarked by an English writer, of the Whigs when in office, that they always did three things—first, that they disappointed their friends— surely they have done that now ; secondly, tha. they delighted their enemies—surely they have done that also ; and thirdly, that they disgraced them selves—here I am sure it will be acknowledged that they have completely performed that portion of their allotted part.—(Hear and cheers.) John Bull, however, is beginning to know the Whigs ; they cannot long be in power—but will they make way for the Tories ? No—the democratic fire will con sume both—that fire which, emanating from the people, will spread its glorious blaze over the entire earth, giving life and comfort, and vivifying heat to every man of every region, clime and country.— ( Loud cheers.) Mr. STEELE here came forward, and was received with reiterated peals of acclamation and huzzaing. He made a most powerful speech, in which he treated the proclamations of the Marquis of Anglesea and Mr. Stanley with contempt and ridicule—gave a vehement adjuration to the people of Ireland to remain in tranquillity, and not, as in 1795, to be in duced to any act of outrage or insurrection. We regret that we have not space this day for Mr. Steele's speech. He gave a must ludicrous expo sition of the causes why Mr. Stanley was called Solomon. We have scarcely ever heard such shouts of laughter and " uproarious" ridicule as while Mr. Steele was expressing his gratitude to Solomon Stanley, Esq., for the inestimable service he had done him by making him a state prisoner. Mr. REED, a Protestant, moved a vote of thanks to Mr. O'Connell, and was seconded by Mr. SMITH, a Protestant. Other resolutions were proposed, and thanks having been returned to the chairman, the meeting adjourned amid loud cheers for O'Connell and a Repeal of the Union. ORANGE. • DECISION OF .THE HALF BATTA QUESTION. The • following General Order to the Bengal Army was published at Calcutta on the Gth of Sep. tember r :4 MEETING. cvn-- 8t Wed ; day, 4: " TO THE BELGIC NATION. " A few days ago, in my solicitude for the happiness and independenee of Belgium, in the strength of the affection which I bear it. in the firm confidence that this affection should be as reciprocal on its part as it is sincere on mine, I thought that I discharged a debt of attachment and honour towards the Belgic nation in pointing out to it, by awriting addressed to citizen. whose devotedness is known, the most prompt and sure means. of settling the difficulties of the present moment, and securing the interests of the future,, '" NOW pressing solicitations, petitions presented by the first cities,of Belgium, prove .to me that these same means are those, the adoption of which is claimed by the great majority, of the Belgians; 'by a free and Well-consider'ed preference. They prove to nie that my heart had not de ceived me in ascribing to. them sentiments towartis inys'elf with which I have never ceased 'to be.anim'ated toward. them. They prove to' me,' in fine, that a solemn declara tion of the wishes which direct me is strongly required at . - my hands. "The position of Belgium,—the confidence which the nation testifies towardsi me,—my desire to return that con fidence, and to consolidate the public liberties on the basis of its complete independence,—every thing inspires the duty of satisfying these views, and of giving to my inten tions an entire publicity. The publication of the letter of which I have spoken above will best fulfil my object. I publish it below, because it contains my profession of faith; I publish it, because it agrees entirely with the true interests of the state, whose prosperity will . he the object of my life, and with the opinions of the five great Powers, to whom Belgium has already, doubtless, sworn the most legi timate gratitude. " Belgians,—The late events in Belgium have brought upon me, upon my family, and upon the nation, misfor tunes which I shall never cease to deplore. " ' Nevertheless, in the midst of the calamities, I have ' never abandoned the consoling hope that a time would come, when the purity of my intentions would be ac knowledged, and when I should be able personally to co operate in the happy enterprise of calming the divisions, and restoring the peace and prosperity of a country to which I am united by the sacred ties of duty and the most tender affection. (Abridged from the Dublin Morning Register of Tuesday.) _ . " No, ,173 of 1830.—The 4 niwernor-General in Coun cil is pleased to direct the publication of the following ge neral letter No. 37 of 1830, front the llonourdble the Court of Directors, in the .Military Department, under date the 31st March, for the general information of the Yesterday. pursuant to public requisition, the in habitants of St. Thomas's parish assembled at the Arena, to petition for a Repeal of the Union. The meeting was attended by not less than five or six thousand persons; the entire building was crowded in every part almost to suffocation, and great num bers were obliged to remain outside. About half past twelve o'clock Henry Grattan, Esq. entered, and his appearance on the platform was hailed with loud cheers. After some preliminary preparations, Mr. GRATTAN was unanimously called to the chair; Mr. Michael O'Beirne was requested to act as se eretiery. Mr. Clit ITT lN said, on taking the chair—lt is for no faclitius purpose I come here--God'forbid f It is widen any breach between my fellow -God sub- Tecti— forbid !—(Cheers.) . I come, as an Irishman, to exercise a right as a British subject in this parish, without fear of the interference of a magistrate or of a police-officer to send me from this hear, and cheers.) Gentlemen, I need not speak of the Repeal of the Union. All of you know what are my opinions, what have been, and are still, the opinions of my family of a Repeal of the Union.—(Cheers.) I say, farther, gentle men, notwithstanding all the fine language, and fine calculations upon paper, and the charges of separa tion used against the question, as a subject of Great Britain, as a freeholder of the county of Surrey, as a freeholder of the county of Middlesex, I do say, that it would be infinitely better for the Constitution of England, and for the English House of Commons, if the Irish representatives were allowed to do the business of Ireland at home.—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) I may be wrong, but suppression of dis• cussion will not prove it.—(Loud cries of bear.) Mr. GRATTAN concluded amiol great applause, and was immediately addressed by a parishioner, who requested leave to place around him a sash em blematic of the abolition of faction and the union of orange and green. The sash was taken by Mr. Grattan, and put on amid the repeated acclamations of the meeting. It was tri-coloured ; of orange, green, and white silk, and bore in gold letters upon it, " Constitutional Agitation for a Uepeal of the Union." army. " Para 1. In our Military Letter of the 28th May, 1828, we direeted that officers p•riodically stationed at the Presidency, BerhaMpore, Dinapore, should receive half Latta, with house-rent at the rates fixed in 1814, in stead of ciu aters.

We have perused those memorials with pain and disappointment. There prevails in too many of them a tone of disrespectful remonstrance, little in accordance with that prOpriety of feeling which we thought had been the pride of the Bengal army, and inconsistent with the principles of military subordination, which it is the first duly of officers to inculcate and to maintain. " 4.We did not, expect that our European officers would so soon have forgotten the various measures which have of late years been adopted either by us, or by our interven tion, for their advantage and honour. We did not expect that the dissatisfaction exhibited in these memorials would have been excited by an order which, partially affecting the allowances of a small portion of the army during a tour of service at certain cantonments, forms a part of a measure of military policy, and a general system of neces sary economy. . .

That order was also consonant with justice, for our officers have been altogether misled in supposing that, either in 1796 or in 1801, there was any compact be tween the Court of Directors and those who were then, or who might thereafter engage, in their milit try service. " 6. It is an undoubted right inherent in all govern ments, to augment or reduce the allowances of public ser vants, as the circumstances of the state may require. " 7. The discontinuance of double batta in Owls was ordered by us in August, 1801, on grounds of policy as well as economy. On the same grounds it had been abolished by the Bengal Government in the previous April. We knew not of their act, nor they of our intention. " 8. In their letter of the 28th of May, 1801, the Bengal Government announced to us the substitution of full batta, for half batta and quarters. At certain sta tions, arid they stated that this measure rested on econo mical calculations. 54 • 4$ , 44 ▪ 4% " ' The choice of a Sovereign for Belgium, since its se paration from Holland, has been accompanied with diffi culties which it is useless to describe. 70§ , Si - 4 (o ' Os. - 40 SS. - 4 0 ' .

R," " It cannot be doubted that after having united their efforts with so much disinterestedness, to terminate the misfortunes which weigh upon us, the Five Powers, whose confidence it is so necessary to acquire, will see in such an arrangement the most certain, the most prompt, and the most easy means of consolidating our internal tranquillity, and of securing the general peace of Europe. " ' It cannot be doubted that recent and detailed com munications, transmitted from the principal cities, and from several provinces of Belgium, present a striking proof of the confidence which a great part of the nation still reposes in me, and authorizes me to cherish the hope that this sentiment will become unanimous, when my views and intentions are sufficiently understood. " ' It is with this hope that I desire to enter into an ex planation of these intentions and views. " ' The past, as far as concerns me, shall be doomed to oblivion. I shall admit no personal distinction founded on political acts, and my constant efforts shall tend to unite in the service of the state, without exclusion, and without regard to their past conduct, all the men whom their talents and their experience render the most capable of fulfilling public duties. " I shall devote my most anxious cares to secure to the Catholic church, and to its Ministers, the watchful pro tection of Government, and to surround them with the respect of the nation. I shall be ready at the same time to co-operate in all the measures which may be necessary to secure the perfect freedom of worship, so that every man may exercise, without hindrance, that to which he belongs. " One of my most ardent desires, as well as one of my first duties, will be to join my efforts to those of the Le gislature to complete the arrangements, which, founded upon the basis of national independence, will give security to our relations abroad, and will at the same time ame liorate anti extend the means of our internal prosperity. " ' To attain these great objects, 1 reckon with confi dence upon the aid of the Courts whose views are solely directed to the preservatio❑ of the European equilibrium, and to the maintenance of the general peace. " To render Belgium independent, powerful, and happy, must be their common interests. On this essen tially depends the universal security. Whatever tends to postpone this final arrangement cannot fail to diminish, if not to destroy, its salutary effects ; and the more we con !tiger the means of ensuring to Belgium, along with the establishment of its independence, the blessings of a durable and solid peace, the more we recognise the indispensable necessity of measures which, in present circumstances, appear the least exposed to the increasing difficulties, and to the danger of a protracted delay. " ' I have thus, with all the frankness and sincerity which our common position requires, placed myself before the Belgic nation. " It is upon the lights which guide her in the appre ciation of the wants of our country, and upon her attach ment to liberty, that my chief hope reposes. " It only remains for me to assure you that in the step which I have this day taken, I have consulted less my own interests, than my lively and invariable desire to see measures of peace and conciliation extinguishing for ever all the calamities with which Belgium is still afflicted. " WILLIAM, PRINCE OF ORANGE. " London, Jan. 11.' " Belgians of all classes,—Such are the principles which I shall follow without reserve, if you call me to unite for ever my destiny to yours. The ministers of re ligion will derive from this declaration the certainty of the protection which will secure them in the exercise of their rights, and of their sacred and salutary functions. My old comrades in arms will see that all the rank which they shall have obtained in serving their country for the last five months, will be preserved to them. The employes of the State,—all the Belgians, who, happy in forgetting the past, and more happy still at adding to the strength of Belgium, will have no reason to dread. I shall offer for Belgium, in return for her choice, the immediate comple tion of her constitutional laws ; the consolidation of her independence ; the friendship of foreign powers ; peace, and all the relations and principal advantages which have contributed, for the last fifteen years, to her riches and prosperity. " WILLIAM, PRINCE OF ORANGE.' On Thursday the 30th of December, 1830, JOHN PHILLIPS and RICHARD PRICE were committed by the Breconshire Magistrates of the town of Bay, and sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment, for killing two pheasants upon the property of Lord HE:um-ono. PHILIPS has a wife and five young children, who are consequently thrown upon the parish at an allowance of is. a week. He had but Si. a week, which is not quite 2d. a day for each member of his family to provide food, clothing, fuel, &c. The Rev. Dr. VENABLES, of Cliro, to which parish he belongs, being induced by feelings of compassion to offer security for his future good behaviour, the time of his imprisonment was reduced to three months. The name of the prosecutor in this case is given in a list of pensions as follows : _POOR PEERS. _ Viscount Hereford—May 29, 1800 Sept. 17, 1806 Amounting, in the whole, up to the present time, to 16,7501. 11 s. The only claim to these pensions is poverty, and upon that ground a man who has seven people to maintain upon Ss. a week certainly takes precedence of the Premier Viscount.—Stamford Champion. The Bashaw of TETL'AN, on hearing of the dethronement of CHARLE:i X., is said t o h ave exclaimed, " that while the French took Algiers MAIMMET was asleep ; but on awaking became incensed at what had been done, 'and in revenge, drove the perpetrator from his throne !" A gentleman being applied to, some time since, at the Southampton election, by LORD ASTITOWN (a high fury), for his Vote and interest, sent the following reply :—" 11y Lord, I was born a Whig and bred a Whig-1 wear a wig, and stall die a Whig; and, there fore, cannot vote for you." " 11. We acknowledge their services, and we know that notwithstanding the transient feeling of dissatisfac tion which has been excited in their minds by misrepre sentation and exaggeration of what has been done, and by the most unfounded apprehensions for the future, they are still prepared on all occasions loyally to perform their duty, and to proceed in their accustomed course of mili tary honour. "12. We are sure that, on reflection, they will feel that it is our duty to take an extended view of all the branches of all our establishments, and to devise and enforce that sys tem which, upon full consideration, may appear best calcu lated to promote their general interests. " 13. We have yet a further duty,—that of effecting such reductions of expenditure as may enable us to con , duet our affairs without the imposition of new burdens upon the people of India, or the demand of aid from the people of England. " 14. We are satisfied that we may obtain this object by a firm perseverance in temperate measures of economy, and we are gratified by the persuasion that we may effect all that is required of us without diminishing in any de gree the efficiency of the service, or the respectability of our officers, which it will be at all times our first wish to preserve. " 15. Your conduct in promulgating and enforcing our orders is entirely approved. " 16. We have communicated all the documents con nected with this subject to the Duke of Wellington, whom the officers of our army must admit to be the first autho rity upon all military matters, and who has the further advantage of being practically acquainted with their peculiar circumstances. . _ ..... " 17. We are authorized to state that the Duke of Wellington and his Majesty's other Ministers, who have also considered the question, unanimously concur with that our orders of May, ISM must continue to be carried into execution.

The annexed extract of a letter by a gentleman connected with the press in Caicutta, may serve as a specimen of the feeling which this prohibition has excited:— " I had the thought in my head of a mourning line, but feared to ruin the paper by giving room to a Star-cham ber construction of the law of comment. Whether com ment on the letter of the Court precludes comment on the mandate of Council, and whether this might not be •mourned over, in words or by tokens and signs, is another question. But the Star-chamber is accuser, judge, and executioner, all within itself. Who can say what will be be their view? We knew that nothing so exasperates them, or any men so situated, as significant dumb show • of resistance or sauciness. 4 , The Court have not profited by Lord Mansfield's ad vice to the Military Governor and Chancellor of Barba doe., ' never to give reasons for a decree.' rheir reasons are sophistical and worthless—dishonest and full of false pretences. They deny the mutiny and treaty of 1795, because no official records of that notorious negociation with Pitt and Dundee exist. They do not even directly pledge themselves to respect any other part of the pay or pension. Sic rolo, sic jubeo,' and they talk of their many bounteous acts to the army of late years ! The tinny where are th e y ?" in reply ask, PIRON, the celebrated French satirist, was once brought, for some midnight frolic, before a Divisional Commissary of Police, who sternly asked bins the usual quest i ons —his name, his profession, &c. ; of which he was no sooner informed than he changed his tone, and, tissum ing a smiling coun ten ance , said--" Ah ! M. PutoN, poet—we are all friends here; fo r I t oo ha v e a brother who is a poet.'' " That is very lik e l y ," re t u rned the satirist, " for I also :lave a brother who is an egregio us blockhead." the Mr. Timm as WILSON said he came forward as a Protestant to propose the first resolution, and to recommend brotherly love and union among all men for the welfare of their country. Mr. P. NOLAN seconded the resolution. He said he had never raised his voice before at a public assembly, but when he saw the liberties of his coun try trampled down by a Lord Lieutenant or a Lord Lieutenant's Secretary, and the walls of his native city placarded with worse than Polignac proclarra tions, he could not refrain from expressing his sen timents on the subject.—(Cheers.) 111 r, 13, TooLE proposed the second resolution, which was seconded by Mr. L. FLANAGAN. Just before this Mr. O'Connell, accompanied by Mr. Steele, entered the arena, and was received with such demonstrations of popularity as we have seldom heard or seen equalled. Mr. LAWLESs, in a powerful speech, next pro posed some resolutions relative to the dispersion of the committee of thirty-one by the Dublin Magis trates. Mr. O'CONNELL rose to second the resolutions. He was received with loud and enthusiastic cheer ing, waving of hats, handkerchiefs, and every pos sible demonstration of the most intense affection and devoted love. As soon as silence could be obtained he proceeded to say—The doughty Lord Lieute nant, and his Solomon of a secretary, have aided me much by their proclamations. 'What have they done for me ? they have dispersed a committee of thirty one on Saturday, and on Mon d ay the y have col lected together a meeting of from four to six thou sand—that is the way in which they are putting down the Repeal of the Union.—(Loud cheers.) Thus it is they 11 ill continue to put the question at rest ; for every thirty-one they scatter, they will give to me four thousand adherents.—(llear.) I pledge myself that I am able to prove to demonstration that the Act of Alderman Dailey and M r . Uraves was an illegal one —the men who sent them there were guilty of a high misdemeanour, and if I should ever see aßeformed Parliament, I pledge myself to Ireland, that in that Reformed Parliament I will impeach them for this ac t.—(Hear, hear.) The people who advised the act, may indeed think that they will never see a Reformed Parliament in England, but the spirit that forced my friend Hunt into Parliament, and drove Stanley out of it, is now animat ing the people of England universally. Ido indeed feel that _slave is written upon my fore head, and I am now determined to wear crape upon my hat until that act is repealed.—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) When I awoke this morning, I thought to myself that this was the first day of a new week, that in my labours for Ireland, and determined riot t i t i o taste a particle of one tva s c commencing cx ciseable article—that nothing on which excise duty was paid should go within my lips in Ireland, till that statute was repealed.—(Cheers.) Accordingly, at my breakfast, when I was p resente d w i t h t ea a nd with a bowl o f m ilk. N ot hi ng , I ori n said, e bu t t coffee, as usual , I rejected them, an d re solved to content myself o self r water, sh a ll pass my li ps t ill t h at t act is repealed.—(Hear, and loud cheers.) I have done more—l have repeated my vow never to wear a particle of any thing but Irish manufacture. I always bring to London With me boots that are ma de in 1 r eland ; gloves ; and I assure you I have always more hats than heads with me.—(Hear and laughter.) These, however, are but eerememes—l began my Monday with au additional vow to work double -tides for a repeal of the Union—to have a petition every day for it, and a letter or two in the „ ews papers—not to let a single hour pass without agitating the question, and for the incitement to ma ke these exertions I thank you, Lord Anglesea, and ask you have we not began the week well ? Th ere was one name which I knew would be a spell word to liberty—that name was, " Henry Grattan." Let me remind those by whom I ant surrounded that in 1782 the Duke of Portland was sent here, and it was that he could Lord-Anglesea the people at that period.—(Hear.)—The Irish were then forward f or independence, the Tories gave way, acrd the - Whigs came into place. It was then thought that the Irish could be humbugged by fine s peeches and false promises. It was then said the Whigs have come into office, will you have no con fidence in them —will you not give them a fair trial? What was the answer of Mr. Grattan to such ques tions? " I will never ask a foreigner to do that for Ireland which Irishmen are able to do for them selves-"—(Cheers.)—Grattan was surrounded by calumniators ; he was called " a madman,"—they have not yet called me one. There were incite ments held out to his assassination, when he could not be otherwise terrified. They then went down on their knees to him to refrain from the course he was pursuing.—(Hear.)—Ohl there are high and haughty men who are now trampling upon my country—wh o did every thing but go down on their knees to me, to beg of me to refrain from the agita tion of the question of re peal.—(Cheers.)—When they found they could not terrify nor cajole Grattan, they then implored of hint to give them three weeks—" not one week," said Grattan. They next asked hint for a fortnight—" not half a week," answered Grattan. They then required but two ROSCOMMo.N. One of the most numerous and respectable county meetings we ever witnessed took place in the Court house of Roseommon on Friday, the 14th instant. At three o'clock, the doors were thrown open, and in a few minutes the building was crowded to suffo cation. The requisition for convening the meeting was read by Oliver J. D. Grace, Esq., the High She'd, and at half-past three o'clock he was called to the chair, amidst the most enthusiastic acclamation. Amongst the gentlemen present, we recognised the following distinguished personages :--The O'Conor Don, M.P., J. 11. Plunket, Mount Plun ket, Denis O'Conor, Edward O'Conor, Nicholas Joseph Ffrench, of Ffrench-lawn, Henry Corr, of Durham, George Brown, J. Dairs, of Martins town, Edmund O'Beirne, Luke Taaffe, Athleague, Edward O'Conor, of Bellinagare, George Davis, of Rtscommon, John Dillon, of Mount-Dillon, Dr. O'Conntll, of Athlone, Edmund Keating, Charles Kelly, of Ballynmrry, L. Fallon, of Mount-Prospect, William Dairs, of Ilarristown, Luke Ilanly, Bernard O'Connor, James Balfe, of Runnemede, Richard Dillon, Nicholas Hussey, Dr. But ke, Wm. Harrison, John O'Ferrall, Patrick O'Connor, Patrick Browne, of Clonford, Esqrs. The lino! SnErtm , arose, and made the following observations :—I have called this meeting for the purpose of considering the propriety of petitioning for the Repeal of the Legislative Union between England and Ireland, in compliance with a requisi tion, numerously and respectably signed, and di rected to me. In doing so, I feel that I have done no more than my duty, to comply with the request of so respectable and influential a number of the gen tlemen and freeholders of this county.—(Hear.) The first resolution, appointing Edmund Kelly, Esq., as secretary to the meeting, was passed unani mously. Mr. DENtS O'CoNott, eldest son of the Don, in proposing the second resolution, spoke to the follow ing effect Sheriff and Gentlemen, I feel em barrassed in coming forward to address you on this all-important subject, a Repeal of the Legislative Union. I feel that language would fall infinitely short in endeavouring to elucidate any thing new regarding this measure. Our ablest and best states men and patriots have delivered their opinions and expressed their hostility to the fatal measure of the Union.—(}fear.) Were I disposed to draw upon arguments, I might recur to those of a Plunkett, a Bushe, and even Earl Grey himself, at the period of the Union. 'The means by which it was accom plished have often been described as the most flagi tious and diabolical—bribery, seduction, terror, and every nefarious expedient.—(Cheers.) Earl Grey himself has described the means by which it was effected, as calculated to blacken the memory of its perpetrators to the latest posterity. Amongst the many objections urged against the Repeal of the Union is, that it would lead to separation—the re , solution I have the honour to propose goes to refute that assertion. It is false to say we look for separa tion ; if I could anticipate that the agitation of this question could in its remotest consequences have the effect of separating both countries, I would be the last to join it.—(lmmense cheering.) The re , solution passed unanimously, After the passing of , this resolution, Mr. FFRENCII, of Firm:lllam,, in proposing the third resolution, spoke to the following effect :—The question we have met this day to discuss involves the diameter of the noblest empire in the world, the vital interests of s our ki:tgdo►n—perhaps the ulti mate har d iness anti security of Rear and cheers.) shall Ireland be restored to her rights answer she ought, she must, she will.—(Cheer• ) Mr. Ffrench concluded amidst loud and enthusiastic plaudits. Mr. CLORGE BROWN and Mr. JOHN PLUNKETT, of Mount-Plunket, next addressed the meeting with great power and eloquence. Anxious to make room for an ample report of their speeches, we reserve ;heir publication until our next. The O'CoNolt DON being called upon by Mr, J. Plunkett, now rose to address the meeting, and when about to deliver his sentiments, a breathless silence pervaded the whole assembly. He said, I have been called upon to give my opinions. Those opinions I have reserved until I should ascertain the feelings and the wishes of this important meeting, which I may truly sAy rtvesenis the whole county, I am It must not be supposed because the history o the latter conduct of the Wellington Government is one tissue of absurdity, the ridicule of which is in separable from its narration, that it has not had grave effects, though far short of the more immediate con sequences to be apprehended from such a mixture of mischievous intention and clumsy expedient. Our serious persuasion is, that the thirteen days of November have approximated revolution in a ratio prudence forbids us to name. Upon the King's Speech, and the Minister's subsequent declaration, thousands formed resolutions ,which once in men's minds are not easily displaced, and which start into action upon slighter occasions than served to create them. Make a vast population think of what they would do, and they are taught what they could do. The Duke of Wellington's provocation set the public mind boiling from one end of Britain to the other, and where it now cools it is cooling into very stern forms, such as have had no common shape since the days of the First Charles. One or two things we oak upon as certain, that the oligarchy roust end or anarchy begin. Let us not be charged with saying this for excitement, to feed an excitement at the glowing heat of which we ourselves look with awe and apprehension. We write but as observers, but as watchmen who mark the boiling under-currents that will burst in a deluge over this country if instant vents be not found for it. The peace of the nation is now at the mercy of accidents :—let any circum stance derange the commercial prosperity for an in stant—let the manufacturers' employment receive a check, and the dykes are gone—then may come a rush which military force would be as efficient to re strain as would be the bayonet to turn back the cataract of Niagara. The Aristocracy who have carefully separated themselves from the industrious classes, who have kept themselves raised above them in a lordly state, know nothing of the mighty element which is heaving against their power. Some vague fear, like the instinct of danger felt by the in ferior creation before convulsions of nature, is on them ; but as things have been, they suppose they will be; and moderate concessions, together with troops of dragoons, are the remedies that occur against the worst contingency. It is talking to the deaf adder to counsel these fated people ; they never will see the signs of the times—never will hear the sough of the tempest, till the storm strikes them. France, Belgium, Poland, the story is the same; the blow brings the conviction, and the admiring fool's saying is then in their mouths, " who would have thought it ?" Were these infatuated men only concerned, we could leave them to the consequences of their blindness, with small anxiety ; but we know the hideous features of the visitation of anarchy, we know what must be the desolating rush of a people to wild redress, we know how the torrent must ravage before it can find its level, we know all the fearful conditions belonging to the domination of rude masses, inflamed with the recollection of past wrongs, informed by sad experience what injustice is, but not so well instructed where the limits of the right and the just commence. It is not for the gentry of England to expect in turbulent movements the moderation of the people of Paris. The French had their hot fit nearly forty years ago. The first revolution had blotted out an Aristocracy Dever in its worst days so insolent as ours, and perhaps not more injurious though its tyranny was ❑tore direct and naked ; but if we have to pass tilt ough the same passage it is on other terms, and in other ciretn stances ; our Aristocracy will not have to do with a population with which they have held kindly and familiar intercourse; they uillfind themselves buffet ing with classes as unknown to them as the hordes of the desert, masses of people to whom they have denied knowledge by every device of impolicy, whom they have condescended to know only in the two conditions of tax-payers and creatures of toil, men whose hands they have never pressed but to labour, whose hearts they have never touched but with bitterness, whose actions they have never di rected but as domineering masters. There is but one remedy for this unsocial and impolitic state of things, and that is one which the Government should have the forethought and wisdom to see, and the courage instantly to provide. The State must be popularized. The Government must rest on the basis of the democracy. The people must be stayed from the exercise of the power, of which they are now fully conscious, by extending to them a legitimate influence over the legislature. They must be made, and instantly, to know a self-impor tance to which they have hitherto been strangers. Authority must either descend to them, or they will drag down authority. Get hold of the masses by fixing them in the lower machinery of the State. Comprehend the better orders of them in the Con- stitujncy, and convert the pike heads that may threaten your breasts into the nails that will fix and strengthen the elk of safety ,—a demoeratis Consti tution that may swim on the mighty waters that are out and flooding the whole world.—Wesiminster Review. DISMISSAL FROM THE IRISIf MAGIS TRACS....-The Rev. JOHN DAWSON, rector of Killmore- Erris, county Mayo, has been deprived of the commission of the peace. The following are the facts which, we un derstand, led to his dismissal. The Maria, a new bri gantine of 194 tons, the property of a widow RUSHTON, of Trieste, laden with stock-fish and other articles, from Bergen, in Norway, to Venice, was wrecked on the Erris coast, on the night of the 24th of September. • The subsequent proceedings we find thus detailed in a Castlebar paper :—" An auction was called, by whom we cannot learn, but the sale. took place on Monday, and the mate of the vessel, a foreigner, who did nut understand the lan guage or usages of the country, was compelled to act as auctioneer, and, whet, directed, knocked down' the entire cargo, sails, spars, hull, kc., fur 21/. to the Rev. Mr. DAWSON, a Magistrate of Erris, and a Mr, Divas, without the poor foreigner knowiug what it meant. So far, indeed, was the monopoly of this God-send' carried, that some people who canoe to make purchases were directed by the Rev. Magistrate to be ;one ; that they should get no bargains : and the whole affair terminated io a few minutes, to the satisfaction of the spectators, who boasted of the hundreds they would make by their purchases, an the dismay of the uniform na.to mariners, who found that, after the greater part of this surn had been deducted, under pretence of salvage, &c., the entire proceeds of the cargo and vessel amounted to a few shillings ! And be it observed, that the poor people who risked their lives in rescuing the property from the waves never received tire smallest remuneration. The wreck took place on Saturday morning—those who sur vived were plundered—the auction was called—the cargo sold, and the unfortunate strangers dismissed, all within 48 hours ! And had it not been for the charity of the people of Westport, by whom SO/. was collected for their relief, they most have perished for want." The circum stances were ull submitted to Sir A. Iliar, and the Rev. —Dublin Paper, Mr. DAWSON has ceased to dignify the magisterial bench. s d, 4' ; - ;1 was published; in ;Mall Svo. ss. cloth • boirds , , ..`"a Po trait of -the Archbishop of Canterbury, ' - Vol. I. of t H E SUNDAY - LIBRARY'; 'beipg e keetion of'Sermons from the most eminent Divines tircit of England : • tvitii Biogripliietit Sketches. 4t; 4I By the Rev.
