SlR,—Although the enclosed letter of my friend was
private, and not by him intended for publication, I can-
not deprive myself of the pleasure of sending it to you.
I have the honour to remain, Sir,
Your most obedient humble servant,
THOMAS STEELE,
O'Connell's Head Pacificator of Ireland.

Corn Exchange-Rooms, nukes, 94101.
ELECTION DAY OF OUR FIRST REFOR,BIPDc.MWAT
COUNCIL.

f •
This has been, indeed, a glorious day for Irefailti.
The Liberator returned Aldermen for two wards, and
the great majority of the wards won by overwhelming
majorities. Here is the triumphant result :
LIBERALS.

SOUTH.
*James's Ward 4 George Roe, Alderman
*Catherine 4 Alderman not yet known,
supposed Sir J. Power
*Audoen . 4 John Kcshan, Alderman

*Patrick 4 Alderman not yet known

Castle 4 Cors. Egan, Mclennan
*College 4 James Rooney, Alderman

NORTH.
Custom-house 4 Alderman not yet known
*Post-office 4 P. Purcell, Ald. !! faugb!
*Linen-ball 4 Liberator, Alderman,
*Four-Courts 4 Liberator, Alderman
*Paul 4 Pat. Gardiner, Alderman

The Liberals won those marked * by large majorities.
In the Four-Courts wards the Liberator had 189,
Shendon next to him, 134. The highest Tory, 19. The
rascals contested every ward except ames's.
In the Linen-hall the Liberator, had 369
John O'Neill next to him 366
Grace 363
Allienna 362

This is as nearly as we can ascertain the numbers, for
the voting is done by papers, and not viva voce, as at
Parliamentary elections.
In some of the close wards, Andrew's, Merrion, and
Castle, there was filthy splitting of Catholics with the
Tories, and renegadism and hiding. Still we are safe—
gloriously safe. Tom Atkins has more merit than ahy
other man ; he was sure of the Aldermanship in Four-
Courts ward, the safest in Dublin ; and learning that the
Liberator was likely to be annoyed in the Linen-hall
ward, and doubtful of the Aldermanship, he came to me
last Tuesday night, at tan o'clock, and would not be con-
tent till I went up with him to the Liberator, and re-
signed it into his hands. You never saw devils so dumb-
founded as the Tories, when they found they could not
vent their malice upon the Liberator, by putting him
out of the Aldermanship in Linen-hall ward.
We don't yet know how Andrew's ward has turned
out, nor Merrion, but it is confidently said we have An-
drews by about eight majority. Natty Callaghan will
certainly be the Alderman there ; so at all events we
have one, and in Merrion. they say we have one ; this
would make us 46 out of 60 in the Council, or nearly
31 to 1, and 40 liepealers !
Nine times nine times nine cheers for the Lord Mayor,
the New Council, and Repeal !
