Varltamentarp prorrebings. HOUSE OF LORDS.-MONDAY Lord BROUGHAM withdrew his motion for calling Mr. 13rowne, of the Kendal Gazelle, to the bar of the house, having, be said, received a letter of apology from that gentleman The Scientific Societies Bill was read a third time and passed, and their lordships adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—MONDAY. The Fines and Penalties Bill was read a third time and and passed ; the Customs Bill was read a second time ; as were also the Slave Trade Treatise Bill, the Bills of Ex change Bill, the Episcopal Functions Bill, and some others. The house then went into committee on the Irish Arms Bill, and a discussion arose as tar the length of time the bill should continue in force, it being contended by Mr. ROSS, Mr. M. J. O'CONNELL, and other hon. members that it should only last for one year, the Government pro position being for five years ; it was at length suggested by Lord ELIOT that the period should be three years. Two divisions took place, but eventually, after some re marks from Sir R. ['Est., it was agreed that it should be for two years, and to the end of the following session, which in effect will make the period three years. The remaining clauses, together with the postponed clauses having been agreed to, the house resumed. On the bringing up the report of the committee on the excise duties which recommended a reduction of the addi tional Is. per gallon duty, laid on Irish spirits when the income tax was levied on this country. Sir R. FERGUSON moved that the resolution should be recommitted on the ground that the reduction should be greater than the Government proposed to make it, or orherwise it would not have the effect of puttiug a stop to illicit distillation. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER opposed the amendment on the ground that a greater reduction would neither be conducive to the welfare of Ireland, nor to the increase of the revenue. Mr. F. BARING said he was of opinion that the duty on spirits should be kept as high as it could be maintened without giving encouragement to smuggling, and keeping this principle in view he thought the reduction proposed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer quite sufficient. After a few words from Sir R. FERGUSON in reply, the amendment was negatived without a division. and the re port was agreed to. Leave was then given to bring in a bill founded upon the resolution. On the motion that the Admiralty Lands Bill be com mitted. . . Mr. Hums moved that it be committed that day six months. _________ The house then divided, and the amendment of Mr. Hume was negatived by a majority of 59 to 28. The bill then went through committee, after consider- able opposition. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the house adjourned. HOUSE OF LORDS.-TUESDAY The Grand Jury Presentment (Ireland) Bill was read a second time. The Earl of ABERDEEN laid some papers on the table relative to slavery. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE moved for certain corre spondence on the subject of the apprehension of offenders in France. _ _ The Earl of ABERDEEN said he was not aware of the existence of any such correspondence. The Earl of GLENGALL presented a petition respecting the Irish fisheries; a subject which Lord MONTEAGLE deemed highly important, and deserving of serious consi deration. The Duke of WELLINGTON said he would take care that it should be attended to in the proper quarter. Their lordships soon after adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-TUESDAY The Stock in Trade Bill, the Slave Trade Treaties Bill, and the Militia Ballots Suspension Bill, severally went through committee. Mr. GLADSTONE, in reply to a question from Mr. La bouchere, said he should, if possible, bring on the Ex portation of Machinery Bill on Thursday. Mr. CHRISTOPHER asked Mr. Gladstone when it was his intention to give an opportunity of a discussion of the Customs Duties Bill, one clause of which had an import ant bearing on British agriculture. In reference to that clause he wished to ask if it was the intention that the agricultural produce of the state of Maine, in America, should be admitted into this country at a colonial duty. Mr. GLADSTONE said that an opportunity for the dis cussion of the bill should be given. With respect to the second question he must be allowed to give only a limited answer. The intention of the clause was to give effect to the third article of the treaty of Washington. Any fur ther explanation he would reserve to a future opportunity. Sir G. CLERK gave notice that in committee of supply, on Friday, he would move additional supplies for Canada and China, and also a vote for compensation to those whose opium had been seized by the Chinese. In reply to questions from Mr. EWART, The Earl of LINCOLN said that the committee on the subject of metropolitan improvement would not close its sittings till the end of the present session, nor would they lay any report relative to the embankment of the Thames on the table during the present session. Mr. Ht) ME then moved forleave to bring in a bill " for the establishment of schools to promote a sound education for the rising generation of the United Kingdom, at the public expense, without wounding the feelings or injuring the rights of any sect or clans of the community, but con fining the business of the schoolmaster to the secular and moral training of the children, and leaving all religious instruction to religious teachers distinct from the school ; to the end that general instruction and a spirit of chris tian brotherhood and good will may be disseminated amongst all classes and denominations." The honour able gentleman said his object was to confine the duties of the schoolmaster to moral instruction, leaving the reli gious and scriptural portion of it to the clergy of the sect to which the child might belong. Mr. EWART seconded the motion, but while doing so, the house was counted out. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-WEDNESDAY Mr. GIBSON wished to ask the Chancellor of the Ex chequer whether the government had considered the pro priety of extending to persons advancing money on the security of malt or other exciseable articles the privilege now enjoyed by bond fide purchasers ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that go vernment had not. _ _ _ ... The recond reading of the Export of Machinery Bill was fixed for Thursday next. _ _ _ _ Mr. BANNERMAN Wished to ask whether the professors who had joined the Free Church in Scotland had been removed from their professorships? Sir J. GRAHAM said that many had voluntarily sur rendered their appointments, but the appointments in different universities were held under different tenures. In some the parties were not required to hold office, as in the Greek professorship in Glasgow, which was held by an Episcopalian. The Coroners Bill was then re-committed, and some alteration having been agreed to, the house resumed, and the report was ordered to be received on Thursday. Mr. F. MAULE moved for a return of the names of the different corps of yeomanry cavalry which have been or are to be established on permanent pay under the esti mate of the present year. Sir J. GRAHAM said he had not the slightest objection to the production of the papers moved for, but at the same time he must bear testimony to the good conduct and gal lant and loyal behaviour of those corps-when called upon during the late disturbances. After some further conversation, the return was or dered, and the house adjourned. - 4 ,-. HOUSE OF LORDS.-THURSDAY The LORD CHANCELLOR presented a bill for extending to Scotland and Ireland the power of the Lord High Chancellor to grant commissions to enable persons to take and receive affidavits, &c. The Libel and Defamation Bill was read a third time ; and, on the motion that it do pass, Lord BROUGHAM, in the absence of Lord Denman, proposed certain words to render the sixth clause more stringent in the case of persons threatening to publish any matter or thing with intent to extort money ; and, after some discussion, the question was ordered to stand over till Monday, in order to give Lord Denman and other noble lords an opportunity of considering it more fully. -- HOUSE OF COMMONS.—THURSDAY. The Marriages (Ireland) Bill was read a third time and passed. Lord J. RUSSELL gave notice that he would on Friday take the opportunity of Sir R. Peel's moving the adjourn ment of the house to Monday of making some observa tions on the present state of public affairs. On Lord ELIOT'S moving the order of the day for bringing up the report of the Arms (Ireland) Bill, Lord CLEMENTS proposed as an amend men t the second reading of the Limitation of Actions (Ireland) Bill ; but the motion, not being seconded, fell to the ground. Mr. S. CRAWFORD then moved as a resolution, "That the unrestricted power of having, carrying, and using arms, for all legal purposes, is a right enjoyed by Eng lishmen and Scotchmen , and is one of the essential safe guards of freedom. That to limit or withhold this privi lege as regards Irishmen creates an unjust, impolitic, and insulting distinction, and is a violation of that equality of rights which can be the only safe and just basis of impe rial legislation. That, therefore, it is the duty of this house to reject any measure which would impose or con tinue such restriction." The hon. gentleman contended that the Irish people were not fairly represented in that house, and therefore it was that they held that they were entitled to repudiate all enactments passed by a legislature constituted as the House of Commons is. Lord ELIOT said that, as the house had affirmed the principle of the bill, it was not requisite to open the ques tion again. The house divided—For the resolution, 44 ; against it, 99 ; majority 45. Lord J. RUSSELL thought the best course for the Go vernment would be to continue the present act in force for one year, and not to introduce the new bill. He opposed the provision in the new measure which gave the power to magistrates, and constab les acting on their war rants, to enter any person's house either by day or by night. A noble lord (Lord Joceyln) and other members, when discussing the branding clauses, had expressed a wish that, if it were necessary to pass laws to preserve the public peace, those laws should be enforced upon them selves as well as the poorest person ; but these clauses were not likely to be enforced against the rich. Why not confine the operation of these stringent clauses, by which houses might be broke open at any hour, to places only where the public peace absolutely required such a stretch of power ? Ile would remind hon. members that when that country was in a distracted state in 1819, the legisla ture had enacted a power to enter houses to search for arms, but they confined it to those districts and counties which were proclaimed, giving to his Majesty in council the power of extending it to any other districts that might seem fitting. Now in adapting a similar law to Ireland, he did not see why a power should not be vested in the Lord Lieutenant and council to proclaim certain districts as being in a disturbed state, and then to apply the provi sions of the act to those districts. The noble lord con cluded by asking leave to introduce a clause to prevent the entry of houses, &c., unless representations should have been previously made on oath to the justices at quarter sessions, and that application should have been made by them to the Lord Lieutenant, by whom the county or district should have been proclaimed according to the pro visions of the act. _ _ Lord ELIOT complained of the inconsistency of the noble lord in proposing by his clause to renew the provi sions of a law under which a right of search of a much more stringent character existed. It appeared to him that it was impossible for the Lord Lieutenant to proclaim a county as being in a disturbed state, unless the presence of an armed body of men was ascertained ; because merely agrarian disturbances and outrages would not form a suf ficient ground for such a step. The noble lord had refer red to the bill of 1819, which had been enacted in that country ; but it had been introduced under entirely differ ent circumstances. On that occasion there were large bodies of armed men acting in open resistance to the law, which was, he was happy to say, not the case at present in Ireland. He beleived the right of search would give the loyal and peaceable inhabitants a feeling of security they would not otherwise possess ; and on these grounds he must oppose the clause. After some disscussion the clause was rejected by a ma jority of 44. The remaining clauses of the bill were disposed of, after some debate and two or three divisions. and the bill was ordered to be read a third time on Friday. The Poor Law Amendment (Ireland) bill went through committee. HOUSE OF LORDS.-FRIDAY. The business in the house was tritiing: several mea sures were forwarded a stage ; and the royal assent was given by commission to the Marriages (Ireland) Bill, the Punishment of Offenders Bill, the Norfolk Island Bill, and several other public and private bills, among them the Walton-on-the-Hill Rectory Bill, and the Liverpool Paving and Sewerage Bill. Their lordshihs wound up with a faint echo of the still proceeding debate in the Commons ; Lord Campbell asking for the results of the law reform promised in the Queen's speech ; and the Lord Chancellor, warmly seconded by Lord Brougham, point ing to the obstructive conduct of the opposition in the Commons. HOUSE OF COMMONS. -FRIDAY. Mr. Bright (who was introduced by Dr. Bowring and Mr. Brotherton) made the declaration required for members of the Society of Friends, and took his seat for the city of Durham. The Speaker having attended the Royal Commission in the other house, Lord WORSLEY, in answer to a question from Mr. Gibson, said he should introduce a clause into the Coroners' Bill, preventing it from applying to the coroners of boroughs. During a short discussion on fixing the time of the first and second readings of Lord Brougham's Slave Trade Suppression Bill, of which Mr. V. Smith has the manage ment, Mr. GLADSTONE intimated, that the government would give the measure " its most favourable considera tion," but not, apparently, its most efficient support, as he added a fear that " legislative interference might possibly do mischief." On the order of the day for going into Committee of Supply, Lord J. RUSSELL rose to bring before the house the general state of the country. He referred to the legisla tive failures of the session, and asked what bad been the result of the great majority possessed by the ministry? We might well ask what has been the result of that happy state of things which the right hon. gentleman opposite announced when he went to his election as a Minister of the Crown, and told his constituents that the majority in the House of Lords being now agreed, the constitutional instrument would be in harmony. One might well ask, now that this instrument is in such harmony, what is the music which it plays? (Laughter.) What are the tunes with which our ears have been delighted in this happy state of musical concord ? (Continued laughter.) It has not been, I think, " Rule Britannia," (Loud cheers and laughter.) The agricultural gentlemen would hardly say that it has been " The Roast Beef of Old England." The Irish members are not agreed in saying that it is " St. Patrick's Day in the Morning." I alai not sure (as we understood) that it has always been " God, save the Queen !" The only tune which occurs to me is one which we sometimes hear from the glee singers at public dinners, " We're a' noddin". (Great laughter.) Such appears to me to be the result of this admirable harmony which the right hon. gentleman gave out as such a great advantage to the country. With respect to the foreign relations of the country, the noble lord alluded only to one question : the war carried on against the Ameers of Scinde ; he de scribed the conduct of the Ministry in withholding the papers referring to the origin of the dispute with them as most extraordinary. He then reverted to domestic affairs, and went into a minute examination of the state of our manufactures and exports, reading a number of tables to show that, in several important branches of trade, there had been an alarming decrease. "It is said," continued the noble lord, Maguum vecti gal parsimonia ;'—(laughter)—but I might say now, Magnum vecligal sapientia: (Cheers and laughter.) If you had only recourse to those principles of trade so ably expounded by the right hoe. gentleman 'the President of the Board of Trade,—(hear)—you might have done some thing to make up the deficiency ; but, notwithstanding your own incomparable skill,—(laughter)--and though you taxed us with being miserable financiers,—(hear)-- you have not been able to overcome the difficulties with which you are surrounded." (Cheers.) They had let the time for retrenchment go by : they might have re duced their expenditure considerably at the close of the Chinese war : could they do so now ? Was it now a state of quietness and peace? Expensive establishments were rendered still necessary because they had not adopted that line of policy which tended to preserve peace, order, and content. He alluded to Wales, and, at much greater length, to Ireland. Sir R. PEEL 'admitted the right of the noble lord to attack the Government on a question of supply, without a specific motion of condemnation. But if that Govern ment were as culpable as the noble lord had represented it, he might well have concluded with a more practical censure. And if he had really thought the prospects of the nation to be so gloomy as he had painted them, he would hardly have indulged in the levity with which he began his speech. The Government had endeavoured to improve the administration of the law, to extend the be nefits of education, and to carry other measures of general benefit; and why had they not succeeded in these en deavours. It was said that they were supported by a large majority ; but what could a majority effect against the opposition of a few, resolutely bent upon adjourning debates from night to night, and so preventing the pro gress of public business ? On three questions, fifteen nights had been employed ; on the Indian question, three nights; and so on, upon minor matters. There had been seventeen nights of discussions and divisions upon the Arms Bill. Parliament had a strict right, no doubt, to occupy all this time in this way ; but after doing so, let them not taunt the Government with not having em ployed those nights in other ways. The noble lord hr_d twitted them with abandoning the education measure. They had long clung to the hope of accomplishing a sys tem of combined education, and at first the House seemed almost unanimous in its favour. But it soon appeared that there was not that generally favourable disposition toward it which was indispensable to its useful working. To have forced it on without the cordial concurrence of the dissenters, would but have aggravated religious ani mosity. The noble lord had passed very lightly over the subject of foreign policy. He might, when he alluded to Scinde, have recollected in what situation other regions, not very remote from it, had been left by the late admi nistration. The time would probably arrive when the po licy of the government respecting Scinde would be fully stated to the house ; but in the existing position of that subject. the government would not be justified in making large communications. He much regretted the present state of our commercial intercourse with the United States; but this commerce had always been subject to great fluctuations. He should not think it prudent on this occasion to express an opinion upon a commercial treaty with any power, though certainly the past expe riments had not been very encouraging. The late reduc tions of import duty on American produce had not been so met by corresponding reductions on the part of the United States as to justify any very sanguine hope in that particular quarter ; on the contrary, they had been followed by that high American tariff, which had been the main cause of the decrease of English exports. He had the satisfaction to think that in the last six months there had been indications of improvement in some im portant branches of manufacturing industry—particularly cotton, linen, and woollen ; and this improvement ap peared progressive, being greatest in the last month. Could it, then, be justly said that the measures of the government respecting the corn law and the tariff had been thus far unproductive of benefit to the country ? The noble lord had talked of the Canada Corn Bill as if it had been some new matter, originated in this year; but in truth it had been a mere performance of an engage ment made with Canada in the year preceding. Then, as to finance, the cause of the imputed deficiency was, that when the account was made up, a large proportion of the proceeds of the income-tax had not come in. There had not yet been time to ascertain the full results of the tariff; but, as far as they were known, they were highly satis factory. Even the reduction of timber duty, large as was the present sacrifice, would, he believed, be eventually beneficial. On the subject of the Welsh insurrection, he must say that the causes of it were not charge- able upon the govei nment. The noble• lord might recollect what had happened at Newport in his own time, and the cordial aid by which he was then en abled to strengthen the hands of government with 5,000 additional troops. The present ministers, however, had omitted no precaution ; and he hoped the same aid which they had given whp in opposition would be re- turned to them by those who bad then held office. Now, as to Ireland, the course of the government had very lately been explained in full. They had declared their resolve to leave no means unemployed for preserving the union, but to reserve to themselves the choice of the time when they might deem it necessary to apply to parliament. Meanwhile, their forbearance had met , he be li e v e d, with v ery general ' approbation ; though the removal of the ma gistrates had not been equally well received. He briefly defended that removal, but declined to enter into the de tails of Irish questions-. He admitted that the govern ment had failed to conciliate one party, and had lost the confidence of another ; but they had thought it their duty to govern impartially, and without reference to party feel ings ; and he trusted that they would be rewarded by the final tranquillity of Ireland. The house would not have forgotten the difficulties in which he and his colleagues had found the country. In foreign affairs, in finance, in commerce, the government had made every effort, and their efforts were beginning to produce a good result. He hoped they had not forfeited the confidence of their friends; and with that hope they would persevere in their endea vours to secure to this country the proud position to which she was entitled. Lord HOWICK followed in a speech of some length, in which he lamented that a long session was about to close without one single important measure having been carried for the benefit of the people. Lord PALMERSTON made a speech; imputing the failure of Ministerial measures, not to want of time, but to the opposition of large classes of the community ; and con trasting the financial policy of the two governments, past and present. As to long debates, an opposition weak in numbers but strong in argument, had a right to avail itself of its forte. He. intimated that, if Ministers did not improve, their supporters would receive hints from without which might enable the opposition to cope with Government no less effectually in the lobby than in the discussion. Touching upon foreign topics, he made good use of the Spanish revolution, declaring that Espartero fell for want of moral support from England. Lord STANLEY doubted whether even the discussion of that evening were a very useful employment of that time, about the waste of which so much had been said. The noble lord had assumed for his own side a vast superiority in debate. If he meant in point of length, perhaps it was so ; but the frequent failures in making or keeping a house, chiefly on evenings not devoted to government business, did look a little as if the house in general failed to appre ciate the oratorical powers of that party. The Ecclesi astical Courts Bill had indeed been postponed ; but the same thing had repeatedly happened to the last govern ment. As to the County Courts Bill, there had never been even an opportunity of bringing it to a second read ing. The fate of the Factory Bill he deeply lamented; had it not been for the feeling out of doors, he believed that this bill would have been temperately discussed in the legislature, and passed. Lord Palmerston had re gretted the whig deficiency ; but all that the whigs ever did was to regret it. They did nothing to repair it, whereas this government had boldly, and at all risk of unpopularity, imposed an income tax, the produce of which was only half collected at the point of time at which the deficiency was alleged by Lord Palmerston to exist, the uncollected half being more than sufficient to cover that deficiency. He controverted Lord Palmerston's statements respecting the Affghan and Chinese wars, showing the insufficiency of the arrangements and provisions made by the whig ministry. It had been objected that the free trade prin ciple had not been followed out in full. No; and any government which should attempt any such thing, in the complicated state of our commercial affairs, would bring the country into inextricable difficulties ; but so far from making prohibition their war cry, the present ministers had brought in the largest measure of relaxation ever passed. He explained, with reference to an allusion of Lord Palmerston, the reason why the Scotch Church Bill had not been earlier introduced ; and excused himself from going into the question of Ireland and her church. No doubt it was true, that when the whigs were in office people asked, on every movement abroad, what England was going to do ; because no stir ever happened in any corner of the world but Lord Palmerston must needs in terfere in it ; more especially be was always haunted with a fear of French interference France was absolutely his bgte noire. Lord Stanley then maintained that all possi ble support had been given to the Spanish Regent, with whom he expressed his strong sympathy. And, lastly, referring to Lord Palmerston's anticipation of political changes, he assured him, that if it was founded, as it seemed to be, on some notion of division in the Cabinet, the hope had nothing to sustain it. Mr. HUME, Mr. V. SMITH, Mr. E. B. ROCHE, Mr. LABOUCHERE, and other members followed, the majority of the speakers being on the Liberal side. The Committee of Supply was postponed till Wednes day, and the third reading of the Irish Arms Bill till Monday. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the house adjourned.

THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD: IRE L AND. GREAT REPEAL MEETING AT TUAM, The repeal demonstration in this district took place on the 23d ult., and was looked to with peculiar interest from the circumstance of the requisition convening the meet ing having been signed by Dr. MeHale, Roman Catholic Archbishop of Tuam, The place fixed for the proceed ings of the day was the Gurrane race-course, two miles from the town, on the side opposite to that by which the procession had to return, and in consequence of the mul titude who thronged the road it was half-past six o'clock before Mr. O'Connell reached the platform. The im mense number of persons collected covered an area of about seven acres, besides forming a continuous line from the place of meeting to the town. On the platform they seemed one and all disposed to fix the number present at over 100,000. There were no military at this meeting, but a large body of police were in the town, brought in from the neighbouring stations. On the motion of Dr. M`Hale, J. J. Bodkin, Esq., M.P., J.P., and D.L., took the chair. Lord Ffrench moved the first resolution. Mr. M. Blake. of Frenchfort, seconded the resolution, which was carried with acclamation. Mr. R. D. Browne moved a resolution of gratitude to Mr. O'Connell, and pledging the meeting to co-operate with him in his struggle to obtain complete national re generation. Mr. T. Bodkin seconded the resolution, which, it is needless to say, was carried amidst much cheering. Mr. O'Connell said he had not language to express his delight at that magnificent assembly. But if he was de lighted with the sight before him, he had also cause for bitter regret. It was with pain he had to complain of the conduct of a portion of the people of that country. At Ahascragh they had been guilty of treason to Ireland. It appeared that triumphal arches had been erected there, which police were sent by a magistrate to take down. The magistrate might have been right or wrong—but if wrong, the people were sure of obtaining redress. The law was open to them, and be promised them its protection ; but, instead of looking for that protection, they violated the very fundamental principle of the Repeal Associa tion. That principle was, that nothing was to be ob tained by the slightest force or violence. Instead of acting on that wise and sacred principle, the traitors of Anascragh pelted the police with stones, and one of the police was injured. The poor police did nothing but their duty ; they were merely obeying the orders they re ceived, and the people must have known that any act of violence offered was a crime of a double dye. He would blot out Ahascragh from the map of Ii eland. What was the consequence of their rash and criminal conduct? The enemies of repeal in the neighbourhood of Ahascragh were to-day triumphing, and many of the people engaged in the riot were in gaol already. He called upon them to spread through Connaught that there was no protection for those who broke the laws, but there was protection for those who virtuously endured the iniquitous misconduct of those who wronged them, as was the cause at Headfort. Now what happened at Headfort ? A man shouted " Hurrah for O'Connell." It was a foolish cry, no doubt, but there was no harm in it. But one of St. George's inyr midions knocked him down for it. What did he do? He merely got up and walked away, and with the blessing of heaven they would obtain justice for him. With respect to Ahascragh, not one of the people should be allowed to join the Repeal Association for twelve months. He would stand by no man who gave a blow. If a life had been lost, or blood bad been spilt at Ahascragh, he would not have been here to-day—he would have gone back home to Dublin, and not have returned to join his voice to-day in the general shout for repeal. By repeal they would be protected from English oppression ; they would be freed from the slavery of paving the clergy of a church in which they did not believe. If he got repeal, his first step would be to put an end to the poorhouses—(cheers) and with the £8,000,000 from the church temporalities, he would build hospitals and housea of refuge for the poor. He was working on the second step of the cause of reveal—the appointment of arbitrators—for in every parish they would have magistrates of their own in place of those who were dismissed. They would next beg of their clergy to fix a day of humiliation and prayer, that they might be better prepared on the organisation being completed, to proceed with the appointment of the Preservative So ciety, which would consist of 300 leading gentry of the kingdom. Oh, he hoped May would not dawn on them without seeing repeal ! (Cheers.) A resolution, expressive of sympathy with the super seded magistrates, and of a determination to resort to the arbitrators in all cases of difference, was then proposed and carried ; after which, thanks having been give❑ to the chairman, the meeting adjourned. THE DINNER took place in a large room attached to the Mitre Hotel, in which two galleries were fitted up which accommoda ted 300 ladies. About 400, among whom were a large number of Roman Catholic clergy, sat down to dinner. Mr. Bodkin presided. After the usual loyal toasts, the Chairman rose to pro pose "The health of Mr. O'Connell," which was drunk with long-continued acclamations. Mr O'Connell rose, and the cheering was renewed. When it ceased, he said that was a time to try their souls —that was the time for them to show how much of the noblest metal constituted their nature. Yes, this was the final struggle for repeal. If England conquer now, Ire land is prostrate in the dust. It was now or never. (Loud cheers.) They must either have it now, or they never will have it. (Cheers.) He would even suppose that England was in a high and palmy state, and he would yet say there was a power in Ireland capable of bearing down any opposition, and that England though willing to coerce, would be too prudent to try it. But was England in a high and palmy state ? Her manufactures were dis tressed, her commerce embarrassed, and her finances were diminishing. There was a deficiency of some millions in the receipt of the revenue. A Voice : More of that to her. Mr. O'Connell : Yes, more of that to her until the day shall arrive when she will render justice to Ireland, and from that day may every glory and prosperity attend upon her people. (Cheers,) But now what was her state ? The wages of her manufacturers were diminishing—her poor-houses were thronged, and the operatives in Stafford shire were talking of walking to London four abreast. They even spoke of carrying pikes with them, to help them, he supposed to ask a question of Peel. (Laughter.) Wales was in a state of insurrection, and Scotland was agitated not more by the material suffering of her indus trious classes, than by a deeply-felt religious movement. He would be at Castlebar next Monday, where he would show whigs and tories he was only beginning the struggle. The Chairman then proposed " John of Tuam, the lion of the fold of Judah."—(Drunk with loud acclamations.) Dr. AP Hale (titular Archbishop of Tuant) said that at that advanced period of the evening it would not be im puted to a want of gratitude for the high compliment paid to him, if he confined himself to the simple expression of his thanks. As the people clung to the clergy in past times of trial and suffering, so the clergy would now cling to them. (Cheers.) Several other toasts were given, and the duties of the chairman did not terminate until two o'clock in the morn ing, at which hour the meeting separated. FURTHER RIOTING IN BELFAST. (From the Ulster Times.) It appears that the repealers are not yet satiated with their sanguinary proceedings, and that the series of at tacks upon Protestant life and property, which commenced on the 13th instant, and followed up for three successive days and nights, were only to be, as it were, preludes to a more extensive and organised system of lawless outrage and blood-thirstiness. It was on last Sunday evening, then, that this physical force demonstration and murderous attack upon the poor and persecuted Protestants of Belfast, in the locality of Sandy-row, took place ; and the pretext for large masses of repealers assembling in well-organized and regularly disciplined army was—a funeral. _ It appears that a man named Cosgrove, who had long been ill, and who resided in the Pound-loanan, died some day during the week, and whose corpse was kept un buried from that time till four o'clock on Sunday even ing, when the funeral took place. During the time which elapsed between Cosgrove's death and the funeral, the repealers, at the distance of ten miles round Belfast were summoned into town by some henchman of " the cause," under pretext of attending this funeral. Thus a mar shalled force of upwards of 4,000 men, women, and children, assembled in Barrack-street, from whence the procession proceeded to Friar's Bush burying-ground, where the corpse was interred. When the repeal mob had all entered the place of sepulture, or as many as it would accommodate, the gates were ordered to be closed, so that we cannot even aim at a guess as to what further plot or arrangements took place at the time of the corpse being inhumated. After the interment the loyal repeal mob again formed themselves into marching and fighting order, somewhat after this fashion :—About 500 men, who appeared to be all country people, occupied the van ; after them followed about 500 or 600 women, carrying stones and weapons for the premeditated attack on the unconscious Protestants, and at each side of them were files of men, whilst the rear was brought up by the immense mass of adults who composed the procession. In this order they marched along into the town, till they arrived at Wellivood-place, a short distance beyond the Ulster Railway station, when a piquet was sent out to provoke a quarrel, that they might have the colour of a pretext for commencing their attack upon any or every Protestant who might be un fortunate enough to come within their sanguiaary grasp. A young man, who happened to be on the road-side, was challenged by some of the repeaters to fight. This he at first refused, when the challenge was repeated by another of the Sabbath-breaking repeaters, accompanied by such insulting taunts and unbearable provocation, that a fight was absolutely forced upon him ; but no sooner had the rencontre commenced, than the blood-thirsty repealers rushed upon the young man and the few friends near him, and with that savage brutality and unmanly cowardice so peculiar to them commenced an attack with stones upon their persons, who retreated down Wellwood-place; but the repealers were speedily repulsed by these poor fel lows, and a few friends who came to their assistance, and were driven out into Victoria-place. This, it ap pears, was but the commencement of the Sabbath evening's game, intended to be played by these savage monsters of human delinquency, for when they pro ceeded a little further on, at a place called the Mill ane, they made a rush up it, and commenced a furious attack with stones upon a few defenceless Protestants, who were standing at the further end of it, next Sandy-row. These poor fellows were, however, with some little assist ance, enabled t o k eep t h e i r pos i t i on an d repel their assail ants. This second attack was, in the first instance, made upon two men, named Byers and Millar ; how we must admire the manliness, the courage, and the indomitable bravery of 5000 repealers making an attack upon two de fenceless Protestants, who did not even-provoke them by hn insult ! Byers and Millar were carried away insensible and are not yet pronounced out of danger. When they had proceeded a little further on towards the railway, these heroes, the pride and flower, we suppose, of Hiber nian chivalry, made an attack upon two little boys who were sitting in a field, about fifty yards from the road, and, without any cause whatever, commenced throwing stones at them from that distance ; one of the constabu lary removed the boys, so as not to give these lawless in vaders of the peace and quiet of our town even the appearance of provocation. At this period of the Sabbath evening's amusement, Thomas Verner, Esq., and Sub-Inspector Giveen, with a body of the county police, came up, and upon Mr. Verner's speaking to one of the mob, who appeared to have more of the outward marks of respectabillity than his fellows, and requesting him to use his influence with the mob to desist from their riotous . conduct, this person, in an offensive manner, made some impertinent reply, when Mr. Verner received a severe blow from a stone which struck him immediately under the left eye, by which he is suffering considerable pain, if it does not ultimately prove a serious injury. Serjeant Campbell also, at the same time, received a very severe blow which cut through his cap and inflicted a serious wound on the temple, in consequence of which he was carried away insensible, and continued in that state for some time; in fact, every policeman that was on the spot at the time received more or less injury, and all have the external marks of violence on their persons. During the time that this attack upon the magistrate and the police was being made, a little girl named Emily Clayton was returning from a Snnday school with her Bible in her hand, when a woman from the mob ran up to her, and called her a little " heretic b-," knocked her down. In this act she was assisted by two or three men, who kicked the poor child and tore her Bible in several peices. The child cried out to beat her if they liked, but not to tear her Bible. She is lying at her mothers of Durham street, in a dangerous state, owing to the brutal treatment which she received. Shortly after this, a company of the 53rd regiment and a troop of the 3rd dragoon guards, under the command of Brevet. Major Block, arrived, prior to which the disturbance was quelled. The dragoons returned to their barracks about 10 o'ciock, and the in fantry remained till 12, at which time the town was quiet. The Protestants of Sandy-row and its neighbourhood are justly entitled to much credit for their patience and forbearance upon this trying occasion. One fact is on all hands admitted, that they were not the agressors, and that, until they were provoked and wantonly attacked by the repeaters, not a man of them lifted a hand to strike a blow or throw a stone. We are happy to state that, up to the latest hour in which we could obtain any information as to the peace of the town last night, all was peaceable. During the day a good deal of excitement prevailed, and further rioting was apprehended, even up to a late hour in the evening; but we are glad to hear that nothing of the kind occurred. It is impossible, however, to calculate how long we may con tinue free from an ebullition of repeal mobocracy, in the shape of Bible tearing, and attacks upon the lives and properties of the Protestant inhabitants. The forces now concentrated in Ireland exceed, it is said, 35,000 men. A heavy shower of snow fell on the mountains of Coal carney, county Sligo, on Thursday last. The most daring acts of intimidation are daily prac tised in the neighbourhood of Carlow, to prevent witnesses from attending to give evidence at the assizes. The Duke of Leinster's tenantry in the county of Car low, have (with the exception of two aspirants for fame as speakers) refrained from attending the repeal meeting at Athy, or from taking any part in the repeal movement. THE REIGN OF TERROR.—Captain G. H. Fitzgerald, summoned as a witness for the trial at the Limerick as sizes of the Rev. Charles Dawson's alleged murderers, received a threatening notice, warning him of the conse quences, should he have the temerity to give evidence. O'CONNELL AND THE REPEAL RINT.—WiII it be believed—and it is a fact which may be relied on—that Mr. O'Connell has, within these four weeks, paid off two mortgages on his estates, and renewed all his fines at Derrinane? In addition to this, he has also lately in vested £6,000 in old 31 stock, in his own name. FRENCH SYMPATHY WITH IRISH REPEALERS.— Up to Thursday se'nnight the proceeds of the grand national subscription of Paris, in aid of the Irish repeal association, amounted to 610 francs, about £25, hardly sufficient to bear the expenses of M. Ledru Rollin's projected em bassy to Dublin. The following sentence is extracted from a leading ar ticle in the Dublin Evening Mail of Wednesday night : " Let it be known among loyal men that negociations are at this moment pending, which will probablyiresult in the contribution of large additions to the repeal fund from other European countries besides France." EFFECT OF THE REPEAL.—An English nobleman, Lord S—, who has a large property in Ireland, agreed with an eminent London Capitalist for £70,000 on loan at 3 per cent, to pay off incumbrances of 5 per cent. ; but such has been the fear of repeal agitation that the above house declined executing the proposal, and paid all the expenses attending the negociations, sooner than hazard their capital.—Limerick Chronicle. The usual repeal meeting was held at the Dublin Corn Exchange, on Tuesday. Mr. O'Connell intimated his intention of attending a meeting at Baltinglass, County Wicklow, on the 6th of August next. He then moved the admission of the Right Rev. Dr. Coen, Roman Ca tholic Bishop of Clonfert, which passed amid loud cheers. Father Murtagh was admitted a member. The week's rent was announced to be £1,464 19s. 74d. RIBBON PROCESSION.-We could scarcely credit what we now find to be an incontrovertible fact, that on the morning of the 12th of July, between the hours of one and two o'clock, an immense assemblage of persons, amounting to about 800 men, marched through Stranor lar, to the great terror of the Protestant inhabitants, who conceived that a general rising had taken place, and that the bloody scenes of 1641 were about to be re-enacted. At the King's County assizes, on Friday, Thomas Dow ling was placed on his trial, before Chief Justice Doherty, for the murder of Mr. Gatchell, a magistrate of that county, at Clonbulluck, near Edenderry. The most ex traordinary feature in this case was the fact that the chief witness for the Crown, an approver, named James Dunn, is the brother-in-law of the prisoner, being married to his sister. On Saturday, the jury not having agreed, were dismissed by Chief Justice Doherty. THE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION IN ENNISCORTHY. —Hope seems to diminish. A letter, from the writer of the communications which we published on Thursday, and which was dated on Sunday morning, says :—I regret to inform you there is now not the slighest hope of poor W. Fayle's recovery, yesterday being the tenth and most critical day, when an evident change appeared for the worse, which continues up to the present. He is in quite a low state, and evidently fast sinking. We were buoyed up a good deal in the hope of his ultimate recovery, but it has only made the trial of his friends more severe." THE ABSCONDED TREASURER FOR THE DUBLIN CORPORATION.—Mr. Finn has, after all, proved too many for Mr. Ross Cox, and, accordingly, the latter gentleman is expected home in a fortnight " all alone," to resume his police-office duties. It appeared that the absconded treasurer had been traced as far as the Falls of Niagara, but further deponent sayeth not. Can it be that the acquisitive gentleman who has left the immaculate honours of the civic body to monrn that e'er he left them has acquired the Indian fashion of covering his trail, and thus, albeit encumbered with his squaw, and several small Finns, baffled all pursuit. Be that as it may, he is, like Mr. O'Connell's repeal scheme, not come-at-able, and there will, doubtless, be a small flare-up when the modest enforcers of the borough rate come to decide upon Mr. Cox's rate of remuneration. THE ARMS BILL.—The grand jury of the county of Tyrone, (Lord C. Hamilton, M.P., foreman,) have agrees to a petition to parliament, praying it to pass the Arms Bill now before the house. They say, " Your petitioners consider this bill calculated to give security to the lives and property of her Majesty's subjects in this kingdom, requisite for the suppression of those outrages which the unlawful possession of arms has so unhappily produced, and a safeguard and protection to the well-disposed ; whilst it can only be looked upon as oppressive by those who are leagued for unlawful purposes. Our knowledge of this country leads us earnestly to entreat you not to abandon that clause of the bill which enacts the marking of arms ; inasmuch as we feel it no disgrace to submit to that regulation, but consider it the most effectual means for detecting guilt, and the surest check to the commission of crime. Feeling grateful for the manner in which this measure, so necessary to our welfare, has been entertained by your honourable house, and being confident of your anxiety to secure for this country the protection and tran quility which other parts of this empire enjoy, we earnestly pray you will not allow any protracted or factious opposi tion to defeat a bill so essentially requisite at the present time." REPEAL RUFFIANISM TOWARDS THE PROTESTANT , CLERGY.—The Irish are, according to Mr. O'Connell, " the most religious and moral"—the most amiable and excellent people under the sun . H e i s never tired of singing their praises and holding them up as examples to all the nations of the earth. Fo r our parts, we believe there is not, even in wretched and priest -taught—wretch e d because Priest-taught, Portugal or Spain, a people more blindly bigotted, and scarcely more ferociously revengeful, than a large proportion of our loudly lauded countrymen, and good care they take that this belief shall be neither re moved nor weakened. There are many matters in which we protestants are resolute enough ; but whatever our zeal against principles, we scarcely transfer it to persons. Not so the misdirected people among whom we live, and an instance of this occurred on Sunday evening in the crowd that followed the Rev. Mr. Moriarty from church. Having preached at St. Anne's Shandon on behalf of the Infant Schools, a number of people collected about the door and in the yard. They waited in silence until the congregation had departed ; but as soon as Air. Moriarty, in company with the Rev. Mr. Tuckey and Rev. Mr. Chinnery, appeared, they set up a yell, and followed them shouting " bloody ministers," &c., as far as St. Patrick's Bridge.—Cork Constitution. EXCLUSIVE DEALING.—The Romish priesthood are making desperate exertions to levy contributions off the people of Carnew and its neighbourhood —nay, such is the daring of those petty scoundrels called wardens, or drill sergeants, that the Protestant shopkeepers are threat ened with exclusive dealing if they persevere in their re fusal to pay the repeal or " rebel rent ;" but I am happy to state that their threats will be treated with merited contempt by the sound-hearted and loyal inhabitants of this town. It is also gratifying to know that Robert Challoner, Esq., agent to the Earl Fitzwilliam, has taken the field in opposition to repeal, and not only reprimands those miscreants who are prowling about fleecing the people of their sur pl us cas h, b ut h as intimated to the tenantry that such of them as are disposed to take part in the repeal movement shall be visited with his lqrd- Deacons, William Fontaine Addison, 8.A., Wadham College, Oxford.

The Archbishop of Dublin has appointed Dr. Joseph Radcliffe, son of the late Dr. Radcliffe, as the successor to his father in the Judgeship of the Consistorial Court. OBSERVANCE OF THE LORD'S DAY.--There is no surer test of the spiritual state than the degree of esteem in which the Sabbath is kept.—Bishop of Chester. The new church recently erected in the parish of Ha_ warden, by the Glynne family was opened on Tuesday, the celebrated Dr. Hook, vicar of Leeds, officiated. A distinguished party were present. A novel and interesting ceremonial was witnessed at Leeds church, near Maidstone, on Sunday week —namely, the baptism of seven children, four sons and three daughters, of Mr. Saxby, a respectable farmer of the parish, who, having joined the communion of the church (being brought up as a dissenter), according to the primitive and apostolic rule, took his household with him. TRACTARIANISM.—Among the first signatures to the address agreed to at Freemasons' Hall to the Chancellor and Heads of Houses at Oxford, on the spread of tractarianism, were those of Earl Grosvenor, Lord Ashley, Lord Sandon, the Right Hon. Sir G. Rose, the Right Hon. T. Frankland Lewis, the Hon. W. Ashley, the Hon. Capt. Waldegrave, J. C. Colquhoun, Esq., M.P. ; and, subsequently, Lord Robert Grosvenor, John Hardy, Esq., M.P., H. Sturt, Esq., M.P., J. P. Plump tre, Esq., M.P., Anthony Lefroy, M.P., and W. peckett, Esq., M.P., have affixed their names. THE SCOTCH CHURCH. His Grace the Duke of Richmond has consented to grant a site for a free church in the parish of Enzie. The chaplain of the Edinburgh gaol has resigned his situation, having gone over to the "Free Church." Hi s congregation had a conscientious desire to follow their pastor, but the intolerant gaoler wouldn't allow them ! A tablet is:about to be placed in St. Peter's Church, Colchester, to the memory of the Protestant martyrs who were burned at the stake in that town during the reign of Queen Mary. It is now definitively arranged that his Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge, shall proceed to the lonian islands. His locale will be Corfu. His Royal Highness will take his departure early in the ensuing month, and will, it is expected, remain abroad about two years. ROYAL VISIT TO THE THAMES Tv NNEL.—The Queen, Prince Albert, the Prince of Saxe Gotha, the Princess Clementine, and other distinguished personages now on a visit to her Majesty, honoured the Thames Tunnel with a visit on Wednesday. A CONTRAST.—There are two little matters which we wish our readers to see in juata position. They are the last words of Lord William Russell on the scaffold, and tht ." last words " of Lord John Russell in the Irish grievance debate. We have lived to see the descendent of a Russell wish for the introduction of Ronan Catholic bishops in the House of Lords ! LORD WILLIAM RUSSELL. LORD JOHN RUSSELL. "I did believe, and do "lam of opinion that we still, that Popery is break- ought not to abolish the Es ing in upon this nation, and tablished Church of Ireland, those who advance it will but I will say that we ought srrni. , AT NOTHING to carry to raise the Catholic bishops on their designs ; and lam and clergy to a footing of heartily sorry that so many equality, and that principle Protestants give their help- I SHALL BE PREPARED TO ing hand to it."
