OF THE MUM TIOIROTAL27.

The livernan's Journal reports a special meeting
eats Dublin Municipal Council on Friday to oonaider the
notice which has been given in parliament in relation to the
lord-lieutenancy. The Lordior presided. The know-
ing resolution was first proposed by Mr. Whelan and se-
conded by Mr. Tracey .—" ths project for the abolition
of the lord-lieutenancy of Ireland—au institution which has
existed upwarda of wren centuries—and the transfer of its
duties to England, merely for the sake of the emoluments of
°Moe, would bean experiment which would be productive of
the wont ocasequanon to both countries, and might even-
tuate in reperstion—an mot which every loyal subject must
deplore; but there can be no doubt that absenteeism would
ensue to a rut extant, and by which the continental cities
would be enriched by Impoverishing our own, which would
be the evil effects of the contemplated measure, and which it
is the duty of a wise government to oppoes." Alderman
Reynolds, however, objected to dope such declaration as
that the abolition of the viceroyalty would end in a separa-
tion of the two countries ; he did not believe it would go es
far as that, and be had no wish to be branded by Mr.
Roebuck as an embryo traitor. At his soggsnien
the proceedings were suspended, whilst a committee prepared
in private other resolutions sad a petition to
Upon the resumption of the public business, Abrirermitmalt
At-
kinson proposed, and Alderman Moylan seconded, the fol-
lowing resolution :—" That in the opinion of this council the
proposed abolition of the lord-lieutenancy of Ireland is an
unjust, Impolitic, and uncalled-for measure, and oontrary to
the Teerags of the people of Ireland, and prejudicial to the
beat interests of the United Kingdom." The resolution was
supported by Mr. Martin, who went into the of the
attempt road* by Mr. Horns, sad latterly by Mr.
to promote the abolition of ths lord-lieutenancy, by which,
he declared, those gentleman had proved themselves
enemies of Ireland than Oliver Cromwell himself.
Acheson raid he was anxious the viceroyalty should be re-
tained, but did not approve of the present mWe of
it on ; he complained that loyal men were discount:Z:7Z
protestant education discountenanced. Alderman Reynolde
replied, and praised Lord Carlisle for his amiable manners,
and his love of fairness and justice. He then moved the
adoption of a petition to parliament against the abolition of
the viceroyalty. This was seconded by Alderman Berestord
Smith, and adopted. Alderman Wilson joined in bearing
testimony to the fairness and Janke of the Rail of Carlisle.
The proceedings thus ended.
