tion has arrived. Irishmen must no longer go about
sighing and wringing their hands, and shrugging their
shoulders, as if their injuries were without a remedy ;

they must abjure despair, and take hope and determi-
nation to their aid, always bearing in Mind that the
will to be free supplies the power to be so. " Let us
at once commence, says Mr. O'CONNELL, 44 the
organization of the public mind, the combination of
the virtuous and the good. We already succeeded in
the strife where only some of the Irish were interested
in that success ; where our efforts bore, in spite of us,
a sectarian character. Shall we not now succeed when
all Ireland—when Irishmen of every creed, sect, and
persuasion are equally interested—when every Irish-
man that lives is involved in one common injustice,
and is tarnished and tainted by one common insult.
Rally, then—let us rally round the King's Govern-
ment and the rights of Ireland. Justice to Ireland is
our watch-word, our motto, our daily cry, our only
object, our great reward. Justice to Ireland,, speedy,
equal, complete justice. Let us not consume one,
moment in reproach or in anger, in expostulation or in
resentment. The injury—above all, the insult—is too
deep, too degrading, to find any resource in complaints
or words. Let us be up and doing. I offer myself to
you again to lead you to success certain and complete.
England must do us justice, or we will do justice to
ourselves." These are just such stirring sentiments as
the crisis demands—stern, simple, uncompromising,
and bespeaking an invincible tenacity of purpose.
They are a hit between wind • and water, and will
agitate•lreland to her very heart's core. Long ere the
preSent month has drawn to a close, we shall have
another " Catholic Association" in full vigour, spread-
ing in a thousand minute ramifications throughout the
country ; calling forth a host of fervid, generous,
young spirits, and placing Ireland in the same com-
manding position which she occupied in the memorable
1829. One would'have imagined that the lesson then
road to Toryism would have precluded the necessity of
another. But no, Toryism is incorrigible. The pre-
judices of the faction are stronger even than its appre-
hensions. It may bend, but only to raise its head
again- when the storm has blown over it ; and such
being the case, nothing remains but for O'CONNELL
and the rest of the Reformers to take axe in hand, and
cut down the poison-tree altogether.

KING'S BENCH-(THIS DAY.)

THE KING V. PERRY AND OTHERS.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL (with whom were Sir F. Pot,
Loci: and Mr. C. PHILLIPS) stated the case. It was an in-
dictment for a conspiracy. The plaintiff, George Roberts, was
an extensive cheese and butter man, and married a few years
ago a Miss Evens, who had on the 23d of December, 1833,
left her husband's country house at Hammersmith, taking
with her plate, jewellery, &c., the property of her husband,
to the value of 2,1001.
The indictment charged .the defendants, Wm. and John
Evans, her brothers, and several others, with having conspired
to induce her to leave her hus4nd's house, and with having
assisted her to convey away the property.
Messrs. Maule, Kelly, Adolphus, and Richards appeared
for the defendants.
The case wai proceeding when our reporter left.

DISGRACEFUL OCCURRENCES

AT THE EBENEZER CHAPEL.

The Board-room became crov(ded at one o'clock with per,
sons desirous of hearing an investigation, which was fixed for
tbat hour, into certain occurrences which took place on the
previous Lord's-day at the Ebenezer Chapel. of which Mr.
John M'Crea is the Minister. Alderman FLEMING and Mr.
GAnnETT were the Magistrates on the Bench.
Mr. Kavanagh said he would shortly state the facts of the
matter. He was coming into town on Sunday evening on his
car, between six and seven o'clock, through Brunswick-street,
and when he arrived at the Ebenezer Chapel, he saw a great
crowd opposite to it, and several persons with Orange lilies in
their coats, and if be was not mistaken, also with Orange ribbons.
tie perceived a person in the crowd draw a dagger and unsheath
it. He immediately alighted from his car, advanced to this
person, and observing that it was an extraordinary weapon to
use in that way, demanded his name. He hesitated to give
his name ; but he (Mr. Kavanagh) tcok him by the collar,
and said he should take him to the police-office. He at last
said his name was Flint, and he (Mr. Kavanagh) still retained
hip hold of him, with the intention of taking' him to the police-
office. Several young men, however, rushed forward between
them, and being apprehensive of personal injury he gave up
his hold, and the party escaped into the chapel.
Mr. M'Crea—As minister of the Ebenezer Chapel and con-
gregation, which is so much affected by this case, I request to
know what is the specific charge?
Mr. GAIIDETT—The charge, I think, is very intelligible. A
prisoner is rescued, and the gentleman from whom he is so
rescued charges one of the persons concerned in the rescue.
Mr. M'Crea—He was not a prisoner.
Mr. GABBETT—If Mr. M,Crea chooses to appear as the
advocate of a person—
Mr. M'Crea—Sir, I come forward as the advocate of my-
self, my church, and my congregation.
Mr. GABLETT—ReaIIy, this fencing is of no use. We
have constant reports of disturbances at this chapel. On the
Ist of July our constables found a man in the public streets
decorated with Orange insignia, and in compliance with their
duty arrested him and brought him before us. What was his
excuse? Why, that Mr. M'Crea had desired his congrega-
tion to come dressed with Orange ribbons or they would not
be admitted into the chapel.
Mr. M'Crea certainly told'his congregation to wear Orange
emblems inside the chapel, but forbade them distinctly to do
so outside. The Rev. Gentleman then proceeded at consi-
derable length, and with much warmth of manner, to justify
his conduct. As to the charge of wearing Orange lilies, it was
ridiculous. His chapel was near the place where the Trades'
Union meet, and his congregation was continually insulted
and hooted at by persons belonging to it. If such conduct
were continued he did not see why lie would not be acting
right to preach with a couple of carbines in the pulpit, and
to recommend each member of his congregation to worship
God with a musket on one side and a sword on the other.
After some discussion, the charges on both sides were
withdrawn. ,
Mr. M'Crea, in the bearing of several persons in the board-
room, before the case was brought before the Magistrates,
said, " If matters go on as they are now, I will arm my con-
gregation the next thing !"

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Our arrivals this morning are the French, Ostend, and
Dutch mails ; also a mail from Lisbon by the Pandora—sailed
the 26th June. We have also ship-letters from Rio Janeiro,
Gambia, Canton, Rio Grande, and Jamaica; from Sydney,
sth March ; Van Diernen's Land, sth and Bth March. Most
of the above arrivals are of old dates.
We have received Hobart Town Papers to the 9th March.
We extract the following :
" All the female emigrants by the Boadicea have now gone
into situations of one kind or other, with the exception of the
38 children, and the two elderly maiden ladies, who had the
misfortune to lose their purse of '5O sovereigns soon after their
arrival." [This is the contradiction of a paragraph in the Cou-
rier last night.] The Government dispatches received by the
Asia are, we learn, of the most satisfactory kind, as regards
the general administration of the colony.
" MARKETS.—It is an invariable occurrence that just prior
to the contracts being taken, a rise of price of all kinds
of provisiOn takes place, and no sooner are the contracts
fairly taken than down they fall again. This year there is no
doubt that Meat will be excessively dear, and the contract is
taken as high as 51(1. per lb. The Flour contract is taken at
a price which will allow the miller to give 10s. 6d. to lls. per
bushel, and yet afford a rem unerating profit.
" The sudden rise of the waters that accompanied, the rain
has swept over many parts of low land, and has not only
washed away crops where they were standing, but in many
places much of the soil. In Hobart Town the damage done
to all the property on the borders of the water has been very
great."
Consols opened this morning at 92a for the Account,
and 9131 for Money—same as they left off yesterday—with
very little doing. Exchequer Bills, 13 15 ; India Bonds, 1 3
prem. ; Bank Stock, 2101 2113 ; India for the Account,

In the Foreign Market, owing to the dormant operations of
General Cordova, with the unfavourable accounts from the
various parts of Spain, the Spanish Active. Bonds continue in
a declining state. Spanish Bonds opened at 41i ; Passive,

Dutch 2} per Cents., 561 .
HALF-PAST ONE.
We have seen a letter from St. Sebastian, of the 28th ult.,
to the following effect : •
" Cordova has returned to Vittoria, but it is not known
what course he means to pursue—whether be will proceed
again to l'ampeluna, or march to our assistance ? We require
reinforcements, and cannot proceed out of our lines without
them. Lord John Hay is on shore, with 700 marines. A
number of the British officers are disgusted with the present
stale of things, and several of them talk of returning home.
The army has been paid.up to the Ist of April, and arrange-
ments are making to pay it to the present time."
consols have been, during the whole of the morning, at
92a 4 for the Account, with scarce a bargain doing.
