MR. ROBERT OWEN AND HIS MILLENNIUM.

over to

A very crowded and somewhat singular meeting
win held last evening in Et. Martin's Hall, Long Acre. It
wu convened by Mr. .Robert Om, who has nourishes
that bislang-promised ailsnoiles shall ususson this year,
and that it shall be ioasgsratsd os Mesday, May 14, by a
peat aggregate meeting I. the metropolis, if delegates
from all governments, cosotrise, religious, stets, parties,
sad elasest. From that day forward he has declared that
there shall be a total chugs in the condition of the bosun
este, to be brought about, ant by revolution or violation,
but by patio means sad by the pond consent of mu-
kind. The precise mans by which this mighty change is
to be awed it wu the object of last night's nesting to
develop, but the explanations were for the meet part of every
cloudy and unintelligible character. Mr. Owen, who was the
chief speaker, denounced all existing governments, religious
and patties as degrading to the human race, and as tending to
produce nothing but falsehood, wickedness, and misery
The object of all religions, he said, ought to be to improve
the character of man, but he would there state distinctly
that no religion which existed upon the face of the earth
was calculated to instruct the human ram for its kappicess.
Then wu no government, sect, or party in the world
which could effect it; and, as long as the present systems
stilted, happiness would be banished from the world. In
the millennium which would commune on the 14th of May
the human rue would be emancipated from misery and
vice, and " a universal attractive sptam " would be put
in operation. Everything was prepared for the op:unease-
meat of this new system, and nothing was wanting to seam
its eompleta success but the union of the various classes of
society. He felt every confidence that it would put
aa end to war and all divisions among men, and that it
Would create a lasting paradise on earth. The world was
at present a demon manufactory, bat he would change it
into a manufactory of angels without wing!. He denounced
the runt monetary system as the great obstacle to the
illimitable creation of wealth, and it would be part of the
duty of the delegates who might assemble on the 14th of
May, to specify a time at whisk metal sad papas mossy
might be done away with. The delegates would also taloa
mataures for teaming universal peace although children
woald be trained to arms, so as to resist foreign barrios ;
and means would also be adopted for promoting a peeled
equality amongst all slams at society acowdis/c, age. Mr.
Atkins, civil engineer; Mr. FM Mr. Wilkins. Mr.
Campbell, and some other persons addressed the meeting
on a host abdicates connected with political, sottish ids'
metope!, and ',lgloos reforms, sad the proeeedisge were
at length adjourned until the important day is May.

Cm& Hernias is Limerick. 600 enzollescreernits for the
County Limerick Militia were paraded on the measles, and
their numbers us increasing hourly. amend *then have
alas joined for drill, and the clothing for the amps is Woe
Milk up at Gilpin's, London. The County Limerick will
be eat of the Ant Irish militias embodied and 8t for service.

—Cr./AA—The Moen of the Clare militia have received
orders to commence training forthwith, preparatory to the
regimen being embodied. Few mantles is Ireland have
been so sueseifil in recruiting, though only • month since
the order for enlisting was received. Over 200 have already
been meshed, 90 of whom were obtained within the last
week. Since the report went abroad that the regiment are
about to be embodied, Clare Castle he. been assigned by the
authorities as their head-quarters.
CARLOW.—On Friday the order for embodying the Car-
low militia wee officially communicated by the adjutant,
Captain Knipe, to the staff, and active measures will be
taken sooordiagly. To the regiment, when embodied, will
be attached • " band ; " but it will take sums time to com-
plete the arrangesisals. We may therefore repeat, with-
out delay, to me the barracks occupied by the militia for
drilling and training.
NORTH TIPTIBILART.—We are glad to be able to state
that Nenagh has been selected as the head-quarters
for the North Riding Regiment of Militia. We learn that
the poem of all the officers have been filled up, and we have
no doubt that when the enrolment for the ranks commences,
which we understand will be in a few days, a sufficient
number of the " gallant Tipperary Bobs " will be found to
make up the muster-roll.—Nenage Guardian.
OALWat.—Oa Friday last, Captain Hughes, barrack
muter, left Galway for Loughrea, to give up the barrack
there for the um of the above corps. It is only capable of
accommodating slaty men and three efficere.
Cacthow.—Tlie immediate embodiment of the Carlow
Regiment of Light Infantry has been finally resolved
epee, sad instructions to that effect were received by Sit
Themes Butler from government on Thursday.
ATIILOHR.—Tho adjutant, Captain Trench Nugent, and
staff, of the Westmeath Militia, attended on Friday, at
Athlone, for the enrolment of volunteers. The number
offering amounted to twenty-six, who were regularly at-
tested. Colonel Caulfield and the staff of the Rossommon
Militia also attended on the same day, and procured a good
somber of volunteers.
