EIDDLITON, Corner Con=, OCT. SO —A. committee for
the relief of the poor of this electoral division met to-day, at
the Court-home in this town. It was attended by the ma-
gistrates, ehrgy, and gentry of the district The Rev, F.
Jones, rector of the parish took the chair. In the course of
the proceedings, the Rev. Mr. Keane, R.C.C., took occasion '
to my, that such was the distress of the people that he, as a
clergyman, would not hold himself responsible for any vio-
lence that might be perpetrated by the parishioners. It ap-
17from statements made in the course of the day, that
1.43 d Individuals, out of a population of 9,000, were actually
starving. A more full meeting, for the

We see, bribe above table, that from Himerran and
Toughs], where the people are in a state of wheat stem.'
tion, 5,000 barrels of wheat and 10,000 barrel el corn were
shipped within the last month. The people assembled to
prevent this exportation, and they were treated to a specimen
of British valour, and a charge of British cavalry. What
does this prove? Why, that the pounds. shillings, and
pence of the corn factors of Britain weigh heavier in the
legislative balance of England than the interests and lives of '
Ireland's millions. England must slacken her grasp. The
consummation of her tyrannous rale is at hand ; every sect
of politicians are pretty well convinced that the government
of Ireland must henceforth be in the hands of dm Irish.
