LONDON MONDAY, JULY 10.

THE panic-mongers are reduced to a pitiable condi-
tion of disappointment and distress. The English
funds have risen ; an ugly sign. What is still more
disheartening, the French funds have during the past
week advanced considerably—a most perplexing
s 3 mptom. Every poet brings some fresh intelligence
of a pacific nature from Germany and elsewhere.
Then the harvest promises abundantly ; money is
plentiful; and raw produce far from dear. The case
upon the whole is a desperate one, and such as to
tempt all genuine friends of public consternation to
pray for some windfall of alarm—new, at all events,
if not true.
In such an emergency as the present dearth of ill-
tidings has created, too much credit cannot be given
to the inventive energy of a certain body of poli-
ticians who have spontaneously come to the rescue.
We allude to the noble and honourable members of
the ancient Orange Institution who waited in a
body upon Friday last on Sir GEORGE GREY.
They came,they said, in a long andlugubriousaddress,
to tender their solemn warning and advice to her
Majesty's government regarding the present awful
condition of Ireland. Nothing could be more formid-
able, they assured the Home Secretary, than the con-
dition of that unhappy country. Things were so
quiet that something must be radically wrong.
MITCHEL was gone and MARTIN had fled; but no-
body could tell how many as mad remained. Drilling
had been put a stop to, and the mischievous exhibi-
tion of arms put down; but who could tell how many
guns and pikes had been hidden in the bog-holes ?
The rival halls for open and advised speaking had
for some weeks been closed, but sedition was all the
worse for not being audible and termagant. In vain
Sir GEORGE GREY strove to calm the elderly appre-
hensions of his volunteer advisers, by assurances that
government had not received any information that
would lead them to anticipate any particular ebulli-
tion of absurdity on the part of the Young Inlanders.
The deputation only groaned the more hysterically at
the admission of executive ignorance and imbecility.
In vain they were reminded that horse, foot, and
artillery still crowded every barrack, fort, and depot
in the distrusted island; that the police were more
numerous and more upon the alert than ever ; andthat
abundant manifestations had been lately given of the
loyalty of the great bulk of the community, and of
their attachment to order and law. The panic-
stricken peers and commoners would not be com-
