more advantage from sending their goods on this

The Ldel ate on the Irish Insurrection Act look
place lait 1a ight. The ressoss given for its renews!
by Mr. Mt /1.111/1114 go well nigh to a perfect lieu-
tralisattoh, The measure is not consistent with
liberrl polticy , end yet it is immediately Ilene-wiry to
save the coast nation. In one sentence, the disaffec-
tion is so gene ral and prompt, that sothing bat'the
Insurrection A ct can cope with it; in another, the
Irish are Is i mbned with gratitude for the gene-
rosity of nd, that the Hon. Secretary expects
a sudden attach went to the Government and the
laws to sprint 01 it of it—
" Aim; arty melts the soul to love."

int, as is now admitted or to

be inferred front the conduct of the Secretary and
the notoriety of ;so oldie events, is the addition
of actual famine to the other aggravations of the
CISC ; and still the s peech of last night is but an
ecio of that oa Wald r the Insurrection Act was re-
trenoi lig of the year. As to the pro-
quired at the
testations of Minister that the potsers of the Bill
slis;l not be abused ithout criticising the novelty
and efficacy of them, it may be fairly assumed that
they have no loch int cation, nor could they in any
venom' consult their official interests by so doing.
Buttheo the reply comes, that the evil is in the
lsw itself, which runt sot work in a country such as
Ireland—full of civi ! and religious distractions, as
well as of dearth iu • Food and employment, but to
the production of u siqualified evil. And if these
measures, with like promises made from all the
blii,4ers Who hest used or abused them in the
current of era, hi ire only 'heightened the cri-
sis in the Present de tree pf distraction and ea-
-I,ftsity, at what pet god are we to look to them
for a happier issue --what signs of wisdom can
they.shew us, to pis ,ve that the operatiou which
fins missed a huadrer .1 tames is just now going lor`

public, or both, must be very full iu faith if diet'

of Ireland on the pavan, g of the Insurrection Act,

SADLER'S WF.LLS. •

'this theatre, when that celebrated actress, Mrs. Entwrok,
made her first appearance this season, in her original part of
Hodge Wildfire. The excellence of her personation of the
above character is too well known to the public to need
comment from us oecnsary. We 'egret that the limits of
our Paper will sot allow us to do her that justice the slope-
riorily of her acting so justly demands. We can only say
she su,paited (if possible) all her former efforts. KeaLeV,
es usual, displayed a considerable portion of comic hemonr
in Ditmobiedillee. Lewis was very eff NWT as the Duke of
Argyle, and received iepeatid applause., The Queen was
performed by Miss JOURITONIC with her motel excellence.

The tournament on this favonrite field of action, between
Ftwasting and Curren% two able young fellows, took place

It was for thirty sovereigns aside, and from the reported

the opinion entertained of them, and shewed rage breed.

A gallant stand-sip battle of 33 minutes duration was
