THE IRISH MUNICIPAL BlLL.—O'Connell. has once mote asserted his ascendancy over the imbecile ministry, by . insisting upOn their compliance with the terms which he chOise to dictate to them in reference to the amount of ,qualification under the Irish iNlunicipal Bill. The over •tUres made by Sir Robert Peel, with a view to the, so called„settlement of the Irish questions, and which were, at 'first met by Lord John RUssell in a spirit of apparent • candMir and conciliation, have issued, as might have been . • confidently anticipated, in the disgraceful humiliation of - the ministerial party, who have been compelled to accede to a "compromise" far different in its character to that Which was proffeted - on the part of the Conservatives. ; Thetonduct-of ministers on this question will afford an instrucOe lesson to the opposition. It will teach them 'the utter futility•or attempting, by any pacificatory mea sures, to satisfy the dominant faction in Ireland. It will teach Them to avoid reposing any confidetiCe whatever in the good . faith of the, present priest-ridden cabinet, who; aslong astheirotlicill existence depends uport the ,snpport of "the tail," are impotent for good and Omni poten for evil, in reference to every subject connected' with the ,government of Ireland. It will likewise teach them that their real strength consists in offering an un comproniising opposition to every scheme which obtains the:sanction of O'Connell and his associates.. . . .knovvn that nothing less will satisfy the Po pish faCtion than the entire destruction of the Protestant establishnient in Ireland., and the total subvetsion of Bd . - tisb inflitence over the internal policy of thatill fatedcOun'- ty. These are the grand objects for which O'Connell has continued his agitationthese form the basis of every mea sure Which the ministers have introduced in obedience to the will of the great dictator. The Irish Tithe Bill is a measure of this description. Its avowed object is to crip ple the resources of the Church, as a preliminary step •to the alienation of its revenues, and their subsequent ap propriation to the maintenance of the Popish clergy. We may be called alarmists for indulging in such lan guage; but are we not amplyjustified in thus expressing ourselves ? Has not O'Connell, on numberless occasions, openly avowed his pillaging designsagainst the Church ?i Has he not repeatedly told his countrymen that he will notrelax in his efforts until he has removed the "nui sance" of the established Church from his country ? Has . 'he not also told his countrymen that the priests have an indubitable right to the tithes now-devoted to the main- . tenance of the Protestant faith ? Has he nut confidently' predicted that his exertions will ultimately prove success= ful in the attainment of that end ? IS it not, therefore, ,plain that any plan which he may approve "of, as a lerp porary settlement ofthe tithe question, mustbe considered as a means for facilitating the final accomplishment of his schemes of plunder? Are the Conservatives then not justified in resisting, vi et armis, all such plans? It is perfectly idle to'talk of conciliating or entering into any "compromise" with the detestable faction of which O'Connell is.the mouth-piece.and representative. Resistance is the only safe 'policy to Which the Conserva tives can resort. If this policy bad been acted upon con sistentlY during the last ten years we should not have •liad the mortification to witness the aggravatecl assaults , to which the Established Church of Ireland has been rem' cently sobjected—we should not have to record the. gra-Celal fact,ttirat up Wards-of for tyurembetsofthe Britiih-t 6 House of. Commons had been repeatedly . guiltyof the abominable.eritne of •perjurvvve should not have to re flect nponethe baneful ascendanCy of democratic principles in the senate and in our municipal councils---we should not have to lament the . numberlesS encroachments which have been made upon the venerated institutions of our cotint6--enciOachments which threaten to sap the very foundationsOf our national prosperity, •and- to involve in irremediable ruin the glorious fabrie of our constitution. We see no utility in mincing the truth, and we, there' fore, maintain; and shall continue to assert, that all the evils and embarrassments under which the country has been labouring for the' last severe vears, as far as they can be traced to any distinct political origin, are attlibu• table to the rash concessions made to the POpish faction; and we do not hesitate to assert, further, that, if this country had been at all aware of the ulterior designs of the Papists and their allies; the Emancipation Bill would . never have been passed. The Protestants of England were grbsslyimposed - upon in the matter. They were misled by the solemn asseverations of O'Connell and. Lie Irish priests and bishOps of the Romish persuasion— asseverations which wouldnot nowbe considered as mirth a "StraW, 'eyen thOugh ratified hi , ' the additional solemnity. of an oath. The Popish party are now endtavouring to delude the. British.public in a similar manner. O'Connell and the PriestS,are seeking to persuade the, Protestants of En; gdand that they merely ask for municipal institutions assimilated in their character to those of England and Scotland. This, hoWever, is an empty pretence--a base trick=:-a false 'profession. The real object which the Papists seek to accomplish to render the power con-. ferred upon the Irish corporations subservient to their own. political designs--designs which have, over and otr again, been proved to be incompatible with the ex istence of Protestantism, and the'exercise'of British in• fluence, in Ireland. ' - . The mere question of qualifrcation, : isr l sonneetistro.yß the Irish municipal bill, is orl , gF "a - .secondary.character, in comparison with the grand principle of resistance to Popish ascendancy. Even should SießobertPeel suc ceed in obtaining what is termed a bona fide ten-pound qualification, the bill will prove far from innocuous in its operation. Unless some enactment can be introduced into the bill which will put an effectual stop to the bloody and accursed system of intimidation,' practised through out Ireland towards the PrOtestant electors, it will be in vain to insist upon any increase in the amount of the f . t.anchise. The Popish party will be sure to avail them selves of the ready instrument of terrorism, to deter the Protestants from voting, and thus render the bill an auxiliary to POpish ascendancy. Those who are aware of the personal risk which the Protestants would gene rally incur by asserting their municipal rights, will readily believe us, when we say that very few indeed .wbuld have the physical courage to exercise the fran chise.. The field would, in the majority of instances, be left clear to the turbulent demagogues who might obtain favour with the murderous mob of Papists. There are also other evils in the bill which a ten pound franchise would by no means contribute to re move. To these we may, perhaps,, hereafter refer, as the several clauses are discussed in committee. Much stress has been laid by Mr. O'Connell and others on. the alleged inconsistency of imposing a higher qualification upon the Irish municipal constituencies . than upon those of England and Scotland.. The cunning jesuy, who - is pleased to take Lord John Russell and his •associates under his protection, avows his willingness to accept a ten - prinnt franchise on certain conditions; but ~then it must be such-a, franchise as will leave the door open to - perjury 'and fictitious' voting. "If this is re fused,". he exclaims,- "then give me the English or Scotch franchise,", Now :the. English :franchise would please. us Much better than the mach-von - red " bona fide ten pound" qualification. Here all who have been rated for three year; and residents in the borough for the same period, and who are not in arrears for their taxes, have the, privilege of voting. Let it be so in Ireland, and lei the Poor Law Bill be taken as the test for rating. We believe that holders paying a rental of £5 will not be rated at all . under the Irish Poor Law Bill ; at all events we believe that this is not enacted in reference to large towns. Give us, then, a bill allowing all who are rated to have the municipal franchise; but, then, let the 'other Conditions which we have enumerated, as apper taining to the English municipal bill, be imposed upon the rate-payers. Let them be compelled to prove that they have been rated for three years; let them pay up, their arrears of taxes, and let them prove their residence in the borough for the requisite period. Such a bill i would be like'the English act. But such a bill would never satisfy O'Connell, and for this, among .other.rea sons, that it ' , mild he impossible for it to come into operation unfil after three years from the passing of the Irish Poor Lan Bill.

Every convenience cOnducive to comfort may be found in them; either for the invalid who seeks a restoration of health, or the valetudi-: .fiarian who luxuriates in an occasional dip. The absence of all danger must render them to the timid, a great attraction. -A large timber ship, the Majestic, bound from St. John, N.B. to• Liverpool, and.which is said to have been abandoned so long as eighteen months ago, had drifted cff the Berlinques, and. was met with there and subsequently towed in by the Trinculo, brig of war, on the 23th.

The intention of the appli- Cants was to convinc.e the Board, and the inhabitants of Liver pool generally, of the value of the material, but for some reason or other the experiment was delayed. On Tuesday, however, the workmen commenced their operations, which were regarded with great curiosity by a number of individuals. Several yards of the foutwalk were completed in the course of the afternoon, since then a large portion has been completed, - Judging from this specimen however, we hardly think it will be a substitute furl flags in a country where flags'are cheap. In the first instance, there is a layer of brick work which we should imagine more expensive of itself than flagging, and this is covered with a layer of about an inch thick of the composition, which appears tube a mixture of boiled pitch and pounded granite. The result wilk , however, prove its utility. ;Thin!' Y Cot.cts, DeeLIN.---On Tuesday the frillowing ge'rttleinen were efected to vacant" Fellowships :—Jae. Mater, liobr'rit• Dixon, S.

Ste,—You will perceive that a subscription is catinneuced iii Dublin, by the friends of Protestantism, for the purpose of testifying to the Rev. T. D. Gregg their approbation of tree man ner in which he has so ably conducted the late conUoversy; and also with an intention of evidencing their joy and gratitude fur its successful tertnimition. As the measures which are contemplated will occasion consi derable expense, and as Mr. Gregg, by his triumphant exposure of error and corruption in the !Sottish church, has rendered w service, not only to Christianity in Ireland, but also to the cause of God in England and throughout the world, would it not be well for all Protestants to manliest their attachment to the true church, by contributing their mites towards this tribute of affection, respect, - and thankfulness to the unflinching and successful champion of the gospel ? Any further remarks, sir, would, I think, be superfluous. If one or two places were named for receiving subscriptions, they would, I feel convinced, pour, in from all quarters. Happily: the time has not arrived, when men have lost their attachment to that church, in which were embosomed the affections of their fathers—that church which has sent forth martyrs to the stake, glorying in their sufferings—that church which, in friendly union with the government of this kingdom, has improved the murals, and guarded the safety of Britain through successive ages, and elevated her to her present. seat amongst the nations.
