J go vernment have received despatches from il elal id , this morning, which state that the Grand I , i ; } ' have found a true bill against Mr. O'CoN LL and the other agitators. Q 4 Conference of the Representatives of the teat Powers was held this morning, at the Foreign Office. that Would appear by the news from Portsmouth , 4t Gov ernment en t er t a i n some serious inten ti°43of putting our Naval department on a more r es lct a bl e footing than hi t h erto . Th e p resen t si tuat i°n of affairs between the Russians and of ? tte s would seem to warran t a n augmentation d u °ln ' disposable Naval force, in order to give i t -e effect to any energetic remonstrance which t u l l a Y be found necessary to make with respect c 4 t ile patri o ti c an d l ong neg l ec ted Poles.

ROLLS COURT• The Mama:. of the ROLLS took petitions and causes to day, none of which, up to the period of our reporter leav ing, were of the least pudic interest. His Honour, in the course of the morning, intimated his intention of not sit ting on Tuesday and Wednesday, as he wished to dispose ,f two important cases as early as possible, and in conse• (pence of the Court sitting every day he found it utterly impossible to find time to look into the points which these cases involved. His Honour's general petition day is Thursday next. Co URT OF KING'S BENCH. At the sitting of the Court Lotd TENTERDEN delivered judgment in several cases, none of which, however, pos sessed sufficient public interest to rtOport, as they turned entirely on dry and technical points of law. Their Lordships afterwards proceeded with the new trial paper until twelve o'clock, when the case of " The King v. the Merchant Tai'ors' Company" was called. This is an application for a mandamus to compel the Master and Wardens of the Company to allow an inspec tion of their books and accounts by the Livery of the Com pany. The arguments are likely to occupy the whole day. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. DOE V. WILLIAMS. Mr. TEMPLE, on behalf of the defendant in this case, moved the Court for a rule to show cause why the venue should not be changed for the trial of this case, from Car narvonshire to Merionethshire. The Learned Counsel grounded his motion upon affidavits, which stated that this was an action of ejectment, for the purpose of ascertain ing a very important right to the parties, and formed the subject of continual conversation among his Majesty's loyal subjects residing in Carnarvonshire. The case had been tried once, and the Jury found for the plaintiff. That verdict 1.a.1 been set aside, and a new trial had been granted The defendant apprehended, and his motion was founded upon that apprehension, that there would not be a fair trial in Carnarvonshire, en account of the feeling that had been manifested in that county. The affidavit stated that there were only S 7 special jurors in the whole county of Carnarvon, eight of whom had been on the former Jury, and three were described as slate merchants. They had been honoured with that appellation, simply because they were employed in carrying slates from the mountains to the sea coast. One of tnese gentlemen was a short time ago a journeyman tailor; and the other two, pre vious to taking upon themselves the honourable office of slate carrying, had followed the calling of shoe-makers. This reduced the number of jurors in this part of the world to twenty-six, of which number one was a material witness in the cause, and two others were materially interested in it ; another was a brother-in-law to the plaintiff's attorney, and twelve more were his clients. Upon the announce ment of these facts by the Learned Counsel, the whole Court was convulsed with laughter. Mr. Temple, upon this state of facts, trusted the Court would grant the rule that was asked for by his client. Lord LYNDHURST—Take a rule to chew cause, Mr. Temple. Mr. Josat JERVIS trusted their Lordships would order cause to be shewn in the present term, otherwise the case would not be tried at the next Assizes. Mr. Baron VAUGHAN-That is impossible, they can not receive the rule until Sunday at the earliest, and the term ends on Monday. The CouRT then allowed cause to be shewn at chambers. THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. There are moderate supplies of all kinds of Grain except Barley. The Wheat trade continues to advance, as the factors refuse to take Monday's prices.

This day's supply of Beasts and Pigs was, for that of a Friday, tolerably good, of Sheep and Calves t lerably limited ; the trade was very dull throughout, with Beef at a depression of 2d. per atone; with other kinds of meat at Monday's quotations.— Mulch Cows, though rather numerous, were in steady demand at fully last Friday's prices ; an useful short-horns, with her small calf, producing from 181. to 201.

Sydney Papers, to the 22d August, have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house. For a length of time Port Macquarrie will doubtless be the chief nucleus of emigration ; and, in all probability, be more rapidly settled and brought into cultivation than even the fertile banks of the Hunter and William. Would that the poor deluded half-famished families at Swan River were here, to people these opening provinces—and would that the scores of thousands of pounds wasted in yonder heap of sands had been employed in planting and sowing this country. These Papers are very barren of news. From the Dublin Paper received this morning;— ' Loan Aurnonr.—We have the best authority for stating, that Lord Althorp has sent a circular to the Mem bers of the Opposition, as well as to the supporters of the Government, stating that matters of the greatest impor tance were to be brought forward by the Government im mediately on the meeting of Parliament. We believe the reference-in the circular relates to Ireland." Letters from Toulouse to the 19A1 instant state that seven large boats, laden with CO pieces of cannon, 12,000 balls, and an immense quantity of powder, have left that town for Ilcurdeaux and Bayonne, and the number of workmen in the arsenal have been doubled to manufacture gunpowder. The Commander of the division has received orders to guard the Pyrenees. These preparations cause some alarm that a war is on the point of taking place. THE FUNDS. Our only arrivals this morning are from Sydney, and an old French mail; the one due is not yet arrived—con sequently we have no latter intelligence to communicate. Consols still continue heavy, at the price they left off yesterday, SOi -a for the account. The repurted arma ments in our navy still remain a mystery, and nothing positive is known on the subject. In the Foreign Market nothing doing at present. The accounts from Madrid state that three Powers at present are tutoring that Government. Russia wishes she should take an energetic attitude, Austria, that she should not separate from the line of the statu quo of legitimacy, but England, mo►e generous, wishes her to conform with the present times, but the Spanish Ministry are acting politically, and give hopes to the first of these three Powers. She says that to prepare for war they want mo ney to be second. They thank her for her councils, and to England they promise to think and deliberate on her desires. The installation of the Minister of the Interior has not yet taken place. The affairs of the Bonds of the Cortez is still on the lapis. It is not the fear of the situa tion of Europe which will bring the Spanish Government to this determination, but the consequences of the events in France. BRITISH FUNDS.

Every inquiry is still making in the city in regard to the fitting out of the two largest ships in our navy, as well as their destination. About a year since we were in the same situation, large ships were got regdy, when at length it was ascertained they were destined to proceed to the Me diterraneanto replace others which were ordered home. In regard to political information there is none up to the present hour, and the French mail still remains due. In the funds little is doing. Consols have been done in the course of the morning at 80i, since which they have continued at SOI for the account, and the same for money. This is settling day in the foreign market, and the accounts are going off well. Spanish stock is rather better. In Russian stock there is a decline, it being very scarce; in the market little doing. The brokers are busy in settling their accounts. THREE O'CLOCK. Consols, SOi i. FOUR O'CLOCK.—CLOSING PRICES. Consols - i Danish 59! Ditto for Account SO : k i Greek, 1825 — Brazilian Bonds.. 55-,}.

Yesterday was the birthday of the Duke of Sussex, when his Royal Highness completed his 58th year. The Marquis and Marchioness of ELY visited the Duchess of CUMBERLAND ye s terday, at her residence in the King's Palace, St James's. The Representatives of the Great Powers held a con ference yesterday at the Foreign Office : there were pre sent, the French, Russian, and Austrian Ambassadors ; the Prussian Minister; Baron DE WEISSENBURG (Mi nister from Austria), mint MATOUSHEVITZ (Minister from Russia), and Viscount PALMERSTON. The Ministers assembled at an early hour in the after noon, and did not conclude their sitting till half -past six o'clock in the evening. During the conference, Viscount PALMERSTON went to the Treasury, and had an interview with Earl GREY. The LORD CHANCELLOR and Viscount GODERICII had interviews yesterday with Earl GREY at the Treasury. All the Cabinet Ministers were present at the dinner given by Viscount ALTHORP at his residence in Downing street on Wednesday evening, except Lords DURHA NI and HOLLAND. These Noblemen joined their colleagues in the evening. Part of the furniture, books, book-c ises, &c., which had been deposited in the Carlton Riding House since the de molition of the King's Palace in Pall-mall, was yesterday removed, in a number of caravans and van•, to the KING's new Palace in St. James's Park. REFLECTIONS OF THE POLISH PEASANT. BY EDMUND READE, ESQ., AUTHOR OF " CAIN, THE WANDERER," " REVOLT OF THE ANGELS." Yes—they are coming! all is now at stake : The storm is gathering round us, and we hear, With anxious minds, yet all distinct from fear, The thunder in the distance—it will break— And we shall see our frail huts blaze afar — Our fields ploughed up with guns and shattering shells— Our covert nooks where peace with quiet dwells, Blasted by the volcanic breath of war! This we can bear like men—but we have wives! And infantshildren!—what will be their fate? Oh, this subdues our hearts when most elate! We give our country what we owe—our lives : But who will shelter them when weare dead ? Who strike to earth the cowards who dare shed The blood of unprotected woman ?—God! To Him do we commit them : they will see, Perchance, the very battlefield where we Lie cold and mangled on the reeking sod, Feeling their sufferings no more! But when Freedom is won—(Hope tells us that again Her ark shall ride triumphant o'er the flood,) Then will they lead our children to the spot, Point to our graves, and say, with saddening thought— " Here sleep the brave who bought it with their blood!" BRIGHTON, JAN. 27. His MAJESTY, accompanied by the Landgravine, the Duchess of GLOUCESTER, and Ladv BEDINGFIELD, in carriage and four; the Prince of 'ORANGE and Prince GEORGE of Cambridge in a second ; Sir ANDREW BAR NARD, Miss MITCHELL, and the Rev. Mr. Mr. HERVEY, in a third ; with several outriders, left the Pavilion this morning to vi&it Sir GEORGE SHIFFNER, at his seat, Combe, near Lewes. His MAJESTY and the Royal party partook of a splendid dejeune, which was prepared for the occasion, and returned to the Palace at twenty minutes to five o'clock. Her MAJESTY, having a slight attack of cold, did not accompany the KING, but remained in the Palace during the entire day. Several of the Royal suite were on the promenade. The Countess of Eattor. and Mrs. Fox took an airing in a carriage. Earl HOWE arrived at the Palace in the course of the day. The most active and extensive preparations are going forward at the Palace in every department preparatory to the grand fete, which will take place on Friday. Cards of invitation, to the number of 800 and upwards, have been issued by the LORD CHAMBERLAIN, by command of their MAJESTIES. Their MAJESTIES had a select party at the Palace to dinner, to which Sir GEORGE, Lady, Captain, and the Misses SHIFFNER, had the honour of being invited. Her MAJESTY'S private band was in attendance. Several persons of rank had the honour of leaving their uames yesterday at the Palace. The fete at the Pavilion has created very considerable bustle : the benefit which will result to the trade of the town must be incalculable at this season particularly. Her MAJESTY, with that consideration for the benefit of the country which characterizes all her actions, on the present occasion encourages British manufacture to the fullest extent. BRITISh GALLERY. This excellent Institution was this day opened to the Royal Family on private view, and although it cannot boast of many novelties, yet upon the whole it may be said to exhibit a fair show of native genius. We shall content ourselves with enumerating the better pictures. Among those never before exhibited are two of LANDSEER'S the subject of one is Too Hot; it represents a boy making porridge for some dogs, who are watching every motion of the lad with their noscs over the smoking mess. The picture is beautifully painted, and is one of the artist's happiest efforts. The other picture consists of Two Dogs, in one frame, separated by a gilt flat. This picture is not so highly finished as Too lot, but has more spirit. There is a painting by HAItiCOCK running fast on the heels of LANDBEER, 601411 it is rather too much of a copy of his style. The subject is a hare falling over a precipice, and followed by a dog unconscious of the (hanger ; two others stop, and just save themselves at the brink. KNIGHT has a good pictured a Pedlar, but not quite equal to his Smuggler of last year. FRAZER'S is most admi rable, it is the subject of TENIER'S painting, his Temptation of St. Anthony. COLLIN'S Children Nutting, iy in his usual good taste. CONNOR has a few beautiful bits of landscape cotuposition ; we wish he would paint in a little more cheerful style. Although such scenes are correct, yet they are sometimes more brilliant in light and shade. There is a huge picture of the late King's Wine Cooler, by LANCE, and although it is ad mirably painted in detail, yet who cares for such a subject ? His picture of Fruit, close by is in far better taste ; the grapes make you wish to taste them. ETTY'S Storm we have as much pleasure in looking at as in Somerset-house ; there is a beautiful sketch of his near, which we hope to see painted large. STANFIELD'S mas terly picture of Mount St. Michael adorns the walls. We should have thought the offensive picture of the Chil dren in the Wood, exhibited last season in the School of Painting, Somerset-house, would never have been ad mitted by the professors of taste et the British Gallery. There is also an odd painting by one WINDER, the Interior of a Gallery of Pictures, in which portraits of Peel, Hol well Carr, Lord Farnborough, and Se user, the picture cleaner, are introduced. CLATER and ROBERTS have some good performances. Amongst the sculpture is a figure of a Falconer by CAREW. lie is represented with a crane in his hand, just killed by a hawk, which is rest ing upon his left arm ; the figure is well proportioned, and the line it forms is good, but it should be more finished. Ve nus , r i s i ng o ut of the sea, by Nixos, is an inferior producti on : we presume Mr. Nucor{ is young in his art as well as his years. Musidora, by SzarzEzz, is as chaste in conception as it is gracful in execution. THE CITY CHAMBERLAIN.—This morn ing the polling was resumed for the last time, the election closing this afternoon at three o'clock. The declaration of the numbers will not be given until Monday. This morn ing only a very few persons have polled. Next week Guildhall will be again a scene of great activity, as the election for Bridgemaster will take place. There are several candidates, two of whom are in the Dissenting interest, and between these parties the contest will be unusually severe. The commercial accounts from Sydney to day state that the trade of that place was inci easing ra pidly. The exports in the present year, it was expected, would be considerably above those in any former year.-- Wheat had risen to is. 9d. and Ss. 3d. per bushel. We understand that the Commissioners at Antwerp have completed the estimate of the property de stroyed, during the bombardment of that city, in the depots, and wbic>a was found to amount to above seven millions of Oilers (nearly 600,0001.), and that a claim will be made by the sufferers, both on the Dutch and Bel gium Governments, for indemnification. We sincerely hope that success will attend the application. Letters from Constantinople to the 23d ult. were received yesterday. The foolish affair respecting the Lord Mayor's feast bad excited great attention. It was reported at Constantinople that England was in a state of revolution REPEAL OF THE UNION. (From the Dublin Morning Register.) THE AGGREGATE MEETING OF THE CITIZENS OF DUBLIN. Yesterd sy the aggregate meeting of the Citizens of Dublin was held at the Hibernian Arena, Lower Abbey street, which was more crowded than we ever witnessed on any former occasion. Every part of the building pre sented a dense mass of human beings, not merely crowded in the ordinary place of accomnandltion, bt t ;linginT to fixtures and other parts of the building which only the . _ _ . . ..._......._ ___ _ mot desperate temerity of daring enthusiasm could have thought of occupying. About hilf-past one o'clock, HENRY GRATTAN, Esq., took the chair, amid the loud cheers of the assembly. He said—you all know that :. requisition, most numerously and respectab'y signed, call ing for an aggregate meeting, was presented to two per sons very respectable in society.--(Hear.) First, it was presented to the Lord Mayor, and secondly, to my Lord Cloncurry.—(Hear. hear.) They thought proper to re fuse presiding over the meeting so intended to be held. I do not intend to pronounce any opinion upon their mo- tives; but I shall tell you the reason that I feel it my duty to be here to-day.—(Loud cheers.) I have the opinions of the ablest and best constitutional lawyers with me in thinking that a meeting for the amendment, alteration. abrogation, or repeal of an Act of Parliament, is a pro per and constitutional object. When I was applied to, in the name of those requisitionists, entertaining the consti tutional opinions that I do, I at once acquiesced and gave an answer that I would come and be present at this meet ing.—(Loud and continued cheering.) lam happy tl.a , have so acted ; I am still happy that my answer has been approved of in another place, where the principles that placed his Majesty on the throne of those realm• are in full op rat►on. It is one of the evils we complain of, that Dublin is deserted by the nobility and gentry; and the reason their names are not attached to this requisition is because they were not there to sign it.--(Hear.) It is true that some of these ten thousand persons who have signed it are unknown to me, but it would be somewhat strange, if each of those persons were known to the Lord Mayor and me; but what appeared a fact of great importance to me, each of these signatures has attached to it the residence of the individual, and if that list be published it will furnish an astonishing evidence of the vast spread of opinion on this question. In examining that list, I found the names of many persons possessing large properties of from ten to one hundred thousand pounds,, affixed to that document. I also perceive that it contains the names of many persons closely and highly connected with the trade of Ireland, and resident, some in Wales, some in Scotland, some in Cheltenham, and various parts of England, and in these places where opinions on this subject was not consi dered to have reached, it will be astonishing to find that those persons feel a deep and intense concern in the condition of Ireland, and look with serious so- icitude for the' repeal of the Union.—(Loud cheers.) — do not speak as an agitator—l speak as one conversant with the laws of my country; and I fearlessly say this, that we are come to that state in which the questicn is, whether we shall live under a free Constitution or not?— Loud cheers.)--I am warranted in saying this ; but still we have in our own constitutional energies the means ol rescuing ourselves from this state of circum , tances ; and I feel no hesitation in saying, that if my countrymen have patience, we will, in a few weeks, have to witness the signal triumph of the free institutions of Great Britain.—(Loud cheering.)—The Learned Gentleman then proceeded to the attempt made by the police to in terrupt a dinner of the freeholders of Meath, held last week at Navan, he supposed by the authority of the example fur nished by the Magistrates of Longford Jately, and ex pressed his desire to see the question involved in that pro ceeding fairly tried, to be so strong, that he would sub scribe 50/. towards that object. He had been, not two► hours before, favoured with a letter from a respectable free holder in the county Longford, calling on him to stand for that county, but when he had taken his leave of the city of Dublin, he had the pleasure to be generously received by the freeholders of Meath, and he should, therefore, decline to stand for any other county—(Cheers)—though he felt most grateful for the honour tendered to him. The Learned Gentleman concluded amid loud cheers. When Mr. GRATTAN had concluded, Mr. O'CONNELL moved that Mr. E. Dwyer should be requested to act as secretary, which was seconded, and passed unanimously. Mr. BERWICK proposed the first resolution in a speech of great eloquence and powerful argument. Mr. Muarnir seconded the resolution. Mr. J. K. OTTIWELL proposed the second reso lution. lie alluded to the freedom achieved by France —to the victorious progress to liberty of the Bel gians, and the heroic efforts now making by Poland, and demanded how long should Ireland be the Niobe of nations. Ile demanded a repeal of the Union, as the right of Ireland, independent of its expediency, and declared his conviction that it alone would pre serve the connection with England. The time was now come when the man who did not put his shoulders to the work, and struggle for his country, should no longer be called on, or permitted to represent the people. The Learned Gentleman then proceeded to comment on the conduct of the Duke of Leinster. After speaking of his abandonment of his country, and his unfitness to dictate to his fellow countrymen as to the course they should pursue of their wants and wishes, be noticed i t n he the miserableexpressincoondition of his Grace's tenantry, and the report that his ducal hands had dragged the roofs from the wretched shielings erected by the ruined poor on a part of his estate, when they were driven from their houses. Mr. Ottiwell concluded his address by the beautiful passage from Scott's Lay of the Last Ministrel, Breathes there a man with soul so dead, Who never to himself hath said, This is my own, my native land." Mr. Niraisri seconded the resolution in a speech of much eloquence. During its delivery Air. CAREW O'DWYER arrired at the entrance to the Arena, but, owing to the immense crowd, could not get forward to the platform. He sent in a note to Mr. O'Con nell, to inform him that he had been called in the King's Bench to plead to the indictment immediately on the bills against him having been returned by the Grand Jury, and was required to . appear or forfeit his recognances, which, it will be remembered, amounted to 2,0001. Mr. O'Corotem. announced that the bills were found by the Grand Jury, which immediately produced the most dreadful hissing and yelling. Mr. ANDREW THUNDER proposed the third resolution, which was seconded by O'GortMMAN Marrote, M.P., who said—Ten days ago I was in the city of Paris—(Hear, hear)—since that I visited the independent city of Brussels, the head oi libe rated Belgium—(Cheers)—l have also visited the capital of England, and now 1 stand in the first city of my native country, and dare I, or can I, use the language I used in France and Belgium ?—(Hear, hear.) No, my answer is here—here is a living testimony ; for within the last hour the bills of indictment have been found against the first beat friend of his country, for his efforts in her ser vice.—(Dreadful groailing and hisses.) Who, then, can attem pt to speak his mind freely in this country, after the even ts o f the last week? Gracious Heaven ! when the mitt where genius and faithful exertions for the principles he advocates even his enemies do not deny ; the man whom I opposed when I thought him wrong, but never denied the possession of an ascendancy of genius greater than ever was exhibited by any individual of his co untry—(Clieers)—when I find this man devoting the powers of his great talents, and unwearied exertions to the benefit of his country, can I hesitate to give him my services and assistance to defeat the bloodhounds who now thirst for his blood ?—(Cheers.) Am I, at such a mo ment, to continue my enmity to him ? No, I abandon a ll my opposition to him when I find him assailed thus, and attempts made to trample on him.—(Hear and cheers.) I call on him to accept this assurance of my friendship, and pledge of my support.—(Cheers.) It must be a source of infinite gratification to those who attempt to put down public discussion and prevent this man's exer• tions, that they have only increased the public feeling on the question, and attached the people more firmly to the individual —(Loud cheers.) Nothing can exceed my astonishment to find men whose opinions of liberty ap peared to me so just as his Majesty'e Ministers, attempting thus to stifle public feeling.—(Hear, hear ) Men who in• duced me, from reliance on their professions, to give them other.—(Hea r , h ear, an d d on ' t d o it aga in.) The Hon. support, and go over f rom one s id e o f the House to the Gentleman continued to comment on the prosecutions in stituted against Mr. O'Connell and his friends, in strong denunciatory language, and concluded by avowing himself an advocate of a repeal of the Union, of the abolition of tithes, and corporation monopolies, and his resolution to give Mr.O'Connell every assistance and support in his power. Mr. O'CoNiezee here rose, amid the most enthusiastic cheers, which were continued for several minutes. He said, recollect this, that the Union was brought about b) one rebellion. There is only one way of preventing the repeal of that Union, and that is by provoking the people to resistance, and exposing them to the attacks of cavalry, of artillery, and of soldiery.—(Hear. )—I will not allow the people to be provoked to any, not even the smallest breach of the peace.—(Hear. )—To those who cheer nit through the streets I am extremely obliged ; but I will tell you who lam not obliged to, those who call upon others to take off their hate, and put another out of the way, cr make the flags be cleared for me • those who are on then; have as good a right to have them as I have, and the; should not be disturbed. It is for liberty I struggle, an , not to deprive any man of the slightest right of which le is possessed. Let there, then, be peace, let there be tran quillity, let there be no breach of the peace, nor any vio lence whatsoever; let there be this, in spite of the paltr; manoeuvres and wicked irritation of your enemies—let there be this, and I promise you, that sure as to-mor row's sun will arise, you will see a Parliament in Dublin. My crime is, and lam really not conscious of any ther, desire to suppress illegal societies, and, accordingly, out romes a proclamation. That society was never formed— we obeyed the prec'aination, and a fourth time we were right.—(Hear.)—We used to get indifferent coffee, good dread, hard eggs, and soft sugar, by taking our breakfast and paying one sbi.ling and six; ence for it at Home's.— (Hear, hear, and laugher.)—But what happened ? They discovered high treason in the coffee—sedition in the su gars—the eggs were rebellious, and I do not know, but there were pikes concealed in die loaves.—(Cheers and laughter.)—We were right in going to breakfast together, and we were not less right in talking afterwards. But they say we were an illegal society—why Davy APCleery was one of us.—(Laughter. )—Do you know that Jndkin Butler moved, and Davy M'Cleery seconded, a motion for a repeal of the relief bill—it was not, I assure you, for the repeal of the act for the relief of insolvent debtors. —(Laughter.)—That would not do at all. I am sure they would both dislike that an honest man would not have the opportunity of giving his creditors the benefit of that relief bill.—(Much laughter.)—But we had our tea, toast, and eggs together, when out comes another proclamation declaring "breakfast no more."—(Llughter.) You recollect the tragedy of Tom Thumb, in which the King says, " petition me ! no petitions." So says An gle-ea in his proclamation, "Breakfast me ! no break fasts;" and we have his secretary, E. G. Stanley's name, affixed to the bottom.—(Hear and laughter.) What did we do? We obeyed the proclamation--and instead of taking our breakfast at Home's, we determined on having it at home.—( Hear.) What was next done by them? Out comes an omnibus proclamation.—(Laughter.) Now we obeyed that also, us I defy any one to shew that any body or a , soeistion mentioned in that proclamation ever met again.—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) What has °centred since ?—Prosecutions are instituted—these are still pend- . _ ing—l shall then say nothing of them here, as I shall say something of them elsewhere—in Court, and, I believe. in Parliament.—(Hear, hear.) But the remark which I am now going to make, I would beg of the gentlemen who report for the Press, distinctly to note, and I would also ask them to let it appear in capitals, as I attach great importance to what I am about to utter,—ur TO THIS MOMENT, NOTWITHSTANDING ALL THE PROCLAMATIONS ...-NOTWITHSTANDING THE CIRCULAR LETTERS--.-NOT.- WITHSTANDING THE PROSECIIITIONS.--4 DEFY E.G. STAN LEY AND THE MARQUIS OF ANGLESEA TO POINT OUT TO DIE. ANY ONE ACT OF VIOLENCE, OUTRAGE, OR INSUBOR• DINATION THAT THE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN GUILTY OF I will tell you, that they are talking in England of a crisis in Ireland. My friends, there will be no crisis here.— (Hear.) We have waited for thirty years under the Union—we have but two years more to endure it, if the people but take my advice. The people have been right hitherto—not the least violence has been committed by them. In England there has been no legiti mate agitation, and England is in a bLze from one end to the other. Special Commissions have been sot there, they have hanged a certain nunalier of avreteliee, and yet the moment the Judges leave the counties where they have been presiding, the tires have been bl zing again. Ireland is peaceable and tranquil, but it is said many have been guilty of clime. What is it? They have dared to think of repealing the Union. The Marquis of Anglesea says that " Ireland and England must stand or fall toge ther." lam quite ready that they should stand, but I bar the fall.—(Laughter.)—l tun exceedingly anxious that England should be prosperous, and that we should enjoy that prosperity along with her. But what is the present situation of Ireland ? She is like the Marquis's war charger, saddled, and bridled, and curbed. England is mounted upon her, and there is the Marquis of Anglesea on his pillion behind.—(Laugher.)—lt is quite true, in. deed, if the poor brute, Ireland, fell, the people of Eng land should fall along with her.—(Hear, hear.)—The Union we now have is one of this kind, " Head I win, harp you lase."—(Much laughter.)--It is one in which, if there be losses, we have two-thirds of them, and if there be profits, we get none at all of them.—(Hear.)—But what I want is that there shall be a fair partnership be tween England and Ireland--one in which we shall have an equal share of the profits, and the losses also.—(Hear, hear. )—But our crime is, that we are looking for a repeal of the Union. Do you know what Judge Jebb says of the Union, which it is now thought a crime in us to seek for its repeal.—(Hear, hear.)—The rest of my speech shall be taken up by reading passages from a pamphlet against the Union, written by Judge Jebb, in reply to one fa vourable to it. I will show you what be thinks of the way the Union was carried. He says—" That tile feelings of the country would be affected, that its pride, and perhaps its vengeance, would be roused by the bare mention of the surrender of its Legislature, theauthorof that publication seems to be apprised,and therefore wisely enough bespeaks a cool, and calm discussion, to which he well knew the nature of his subject little entitled him. The author of the following p igen heartily concurs in depre cating both passion and force. It is with calm and dig nified resolution that he trusts the nation will meet this injurious insult, and be hopes that it is not by fora tl e Minister will attempt to accomplish his project. But that some suspicion should be entertained on the latter ground, is no way surprising, front the extraordinary circum stances under which the proposition is made. The ra tion panting and breathless after the horrors and agonit of a bloody rebellion, animosities, religious and civil, still distracting us—a most formidable army b till and necessa sarily kept up—great discretionary powers as necessarily stil exercised by the executive Magistrate—under cir. cunistances such as these, who will venture to express in the honest terms of virtuous indignation his opinion on the annihilation of our Parliament ? Who will ven ture to speak the language with which a few years back the degrading project would hare been received? The terror of the triangles and the gallows may perhaps operate as forcibly as the arguments of the Secretary."— (Cheers.) This is the opinion of Judge Jebb for you respecting the Union—the Union carried by " the ter ror of the triangles and the gallows"—the Union which we want to have repealed. Judge Jebb, I thank you for that. —(Cheers.) I will now read for you the picture which he gives of the country should the Union take place :—" But it is the sincere conviction of my mind that the proposed Union, the inflicting so deep a wound in our n ttional pride, the death of our Parliament,the reducing a powerful growing kingdom to a small and petty member of the empire, will multiply and invigorate the friends of the French connec tion, and dishearten, disgust, alienate, and diminish the friends to the British interest. Who are they whose pride and consequence will be most humbled? the loyal and spirited yeomen and gentry, who have fought and bled in support of our Constitution as it now stands. Who will leave the country, or swell the list of absentees—a conse quence which the advocate for Union admits ? the wretched corrupt rabble, with the profligate conspirators, or the loyal and powerful nobility and gentry ? fire-and-twenty' of the principal nobility. Eighty or ninety of the first gentlemen, necessarily withdrawn to attend Parliament; add to these all who may be attracted by interest, or se duced by pleasure, or sickened at the deserted streets of Dublin—every one, in short, who could command, re claim, or soothe a wretched peasantry, will be lost to Ire land, and the kingdom must become one vast barrack, for military force will be the only one left to keep down our corrupt and licentious people. In this situation, will British capital, British merchants, British manu facturers, desert their secure, warm, comfortable establishments, to settle among a humiliated, degraded, and discontented people?"—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) I shall read one or two paragraphs more for you, and then show you how poor an agitator I am, when compared with Richard Jebb.—(Laughter.) He goes on to observe with respect to the Union, " But whichever follows, wile ther the Catholics are gratified, or not—the effects will be the same—bitter and lasting animosity. Are they refused because " the test acts cannot be repealed," or on the principle of:arithmetical justice ? To the intolerance of Irish Proteatants will they attribute it. Are all disabilities re moved ? to the policy ofi the British Minister, and the ge nerosity of a British Parliament, tail) they consider them elaes indebted, while the Irish Protestants will feel them selves made the sport of ministerial convenience, and will complain of the breach of that grand condition, on which they surrendered their independence. In either case the Machiavelian policy will be pursued, of preventing Ireland ' becoming too powerful to be governed—but " religious discontent, jalousies and disturbances, conspiracies, in .surreetions, and perhaps rebellions,' will still di-grace us." I have but one passage more to read for you ; it is this, " Tice monstrous and inhuman doctrine has been broached, that advantage should be taken of the passions that agi tate and distract the minds of men, that necessarily agitate and distract them at the close of a widely extended rebel lion—that the intolerance of the Orangeman, the resent ment of the ex c l u d e d C a tholic, the humiliation of the rebel sedu ce d o r r e p en t an t, the terror of the loyalist, and the despairing apathy of the reformist, afford an opportn nity not to b e lo s t, of effecting a revolatioa whose merits they cannot weigh, to whose consequences they are'indif ferent, or whose mischief. they may anticipate with malig nant triumph. Nay, the Catholic has been libelled, as ex pressing the barbarous satisfaction of reducing the Pro testant to his own state of political nullity. Let the Minister, or at least, let the Parliament, beware of adopt ing a policy so cruel and so Unnatural. Should they suc ceed, a few years of reflection must awaken all ranks from their dreams of revenge, of terror, or of apathy—and when they shall awake, bow bitter must be the mutual recrimi nations, and how insatiable must be the thirst of vengeance! " The passions of hell will tear their bosoms. (Jr should they turn from each other on their common temper the consequence is too dreadful to be contemplated, with out shuddering for the safety of the connexion, and existence of Britain herself."--(Hear.)—There is an agitator for you.—(Hear and laughter.)—The man who prophec'ed those evils forgot that his scho•dmaster avazs aeginning to be abroad. From 1800 to 1810 it was not one man in every two thousand in Ireland who could read, At presentjthe majority of the growing children of li e land ran read. The minds of the people are now informed —they know that "knowledge is power," and they arc ako aware that no power upon the face of the earth can resist the sp ed of knowledge.—(Hear.)—The world is in a state of tranikion—the nations are moving—the principle of aristocracy and royal despotism is about being extina guished, while the democratic spirit of liberty is becom ing stronger every day—that spirit which can alone give cheap governments and free institutions —(Hear. ) When dissension is completely at an end, then the Union must be repealed.—(Hear.)—The Union ought to repealed;be but it cannot be repealed by violence, nor ought it to be repealed by it. • As Catholic Emancipation was carried by petitions and by arguments, so will the repeal of the Union be accomplished. Violence and force alone can prevent us from accomplishing it.—(Hear, hear.) Whatever man talks to you of taking illegal oaths, remember that man is a supporter of the Union. What ever man talks to you of joining a secret society, remem ber that man is a supporter of the Union. Whatever man urges you to resort to force, or commit violence, remember that man is a supporter of the Union ; but whatever man tells you to submit to the law—peace ibly to petition—to meet quietly, and separate ttanquily —that man, and such men, are carrying with me a repeal of the Union.—(Cheers.)—Let us so exert ourselves— soon as I have the whole country so acting, arid thus pe titioning, I promise you that within two years we shad have the Parliament in College -greets.—( hear and ace' s. ) —Our Chairman is, I regret to state, so ill, that he must now retire. I would, therefore, propose an adjournment till to-morrow. There are many more to speak to the re solutions—the petition can then be read at a fitter time than it could sow, and we can conclude the rest of the business better.—( Hear, and cheers.) The resolution for adjournment to this day was carried unanimously, and the meeting accordingly adjourned. PORTUGUESE REGENCY LOAN. (From the Morning Herald.) The advocates of the Portugu• se Regency Loan are filling the Newspapers with all sorts of puffs, in order to induce the publ'c to embark their motley in that concern. Those who recollect and act upon the old proverb of " The more cry the less wo.il" will, doubtlessly, rather be deterred than i,therwise, by the noise of the contractors, Irvin parting with their. money. To enable, however, our readers to come to a just conclusion on this subject, we will lay before them the history of this transaction. A Portuguese Loan was con tracted in 1823, at which time Brazil was not recognised as an independent State. In 1825 a treaty was con cluded through the mediation of Great Britain; and under the agency of our Ambassador, Sir Charles Stuart , (most important facts as respects the claims of the ogi:sit holders of ti:e Bonds), by which treaty the terms of the separation between Portugal and Brazil were euttlid. Ore of the stipulations was that Brazil should take upon her self the Portuguese London Loan, which was accordingly registered in the great book of the Empire, and three half-yearly dividends were regularly paid. Whets, how ever Don Miguel usurped the throne of Poe ugal the pay ments were "temporarily suspended," and from that pe riod to this, upwards of three years, no money has been forthcoming. During all this time, however, the Chambers, with that regard for fulfilling the engagements of the nation which might be expected from the represen tatives of a free State, regularly voted the money for the payment of the dividends, and also the money necessary to meet the expense of transferring it to the bondholders —namely, the expense of agency. It afterwards came to the knowledge of the Chambers that the dividends of the Portuguese bondholders remained unpaid, and the affair was consequently brought before them. Upon this occasion M. Calmon stated, in effect, that the non-payment of the loan had t of been authorised by the Brazilian Govern ment, but, on the contrary, they had twice ordered the dividends to be paid. As, however, he continued, the usurpation had been since consummated, lest the money should get into improper hands, and be appropriated ns improper purposes, it wits considered expedient to lodge it in the Bank of England. Now all this was very proper, there being 'at that time no Regency-, or persons autho rised by the legitimate Sovereign to receive it, and, conse quently, no one that could be properly authorised to pay it to the bondholders. A Regency, however, has sirice been appointed, and that Regency, to all intents and pur poses, is de jure the Government of Portugal, and, there fore, fully authorised to pay the dividends to the bondhol ders. But, instead of doing this,—instead of acting in an honourable and straight•forward manner—this Regency not only refuse to pay the bondholders, but actually, in the face of the world, attempt to raise another loan, the interest of which is to be paid out of the money unjustly withheld from the bondholders. When speaking upon this affair on a former occasion, we designated it as irre yular—a term infinitely too mild, unless, indeed, it is considered as of that species of irregularity by which money is transferred by a certain description or persons from its rightful owners to those who have no right to it. A case, however, has been laid before the King's Advocate by the bondholders, and without pretending to the gift of prophecy, we have no hesitation in saying that his answer will fully corroborate the view which we have taken of it. I', instead of appropriating time money of the bondholders to other purposes, they had honestly paid it to its rightful owners, the probabili'y it that they would have been able to obtain a loan upon much better terms than those of the one now before the public. Our readers will be able to appreciate " the sym pathy, the patriotism, and generosity" of a set of stock jobbers, who seek to realise an interest of ten or twelve per cent. upon their outlays ; or, in other words, ;:re willing to give forty or fifty pounds for a security of one hundred pounds ; thus doubling their capital when the debt is paid, and, in the mean time, getting three times as much interest for their money as the current price in the market ! ! In conclusion, we ought to observe that one of the princiral bondholders has regularly protested a coupon, and that it is intended to send out a deputy to Rio de Ja neiro with a protest against the Regency Loan, and the misappropriation of the money set apart for the pa) anent of the bonds. By the way, if this money be lodg:d in the Bank cf England, cannot it be attached by the bond holders ? SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S.

PORTSMOUTH, JAN. 27.—A fire broke out last night at Bedlam Copse, the residence of Mr. Molt-. GAN, about three miles from Gosport, when unfortunately five or six stacks of hay, &c., 20 sacks sf corn, threshed the day before, and a very extensive barn, &c., were en tirely consumed, notwithstanding the prompt assistance rendered generally by the inhabitants of Gosport, the army and navy departments, and the marines and seamen from the ships in the harbour, to whom great praise is due.— It was the act of an incendiary. PORTSMOUTH, JAN. 27.—Mr. T. P. COOKE is playing to overflowing houses here. Miss Faun: plays on Wednesday next, and the following Friday at Bath. FASHIONABLETACTICS.—THE COURT AT BRIGHTON.-Among the various articles of interest that wi'l be found in the next number of the Court Journal, one in particular is likely we understand to attract marked attention, front the piquant manner in which it satirizes the circumstances and state of society which have recently given a new aspect to Brighton and its attractions. The paper is one of that favourite series which has already fixed public attention under the title of " Fashionable Tactics." Mr. DANIEL WHITTLE HARVEY, Member of Parliament for Colchester, and MICHAEL SCALES, car cass-butcher, of Whitechapel, are to be the rival candwidahtases for the Alderman's gown, which S ir Jeuxs a b e ;promised r throwt ai o nsti p. off as soon as he is installed i SuitgliAe City c • t.
