we shall not trouble ourselves to conjecture ;...but were
the starving millions whose sufferings are thus practi-
cally derided by this monster, relied on for one-tenth of
that provision which he represents them as anxious to

the present system of Tory tactics, says The Tories

FROGS THE EYEVING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.
(Front the Globe.)
MEETING OF PARLIAMONT.—Her Majesty \vi'l open
tlqt ensuing Session of Parliatnent in person on Tnurs-

day next.
Ireland has spoken out, in langusitee more effectual for
the destruction of Tory hopes of offiee, than if
her her seven ,
millions ofCatholic peasantry had aesembled.en plains,
and endangered the public peace by their mhmbers
or
broken it by their acts. The voice which Ireland has
uttered proceeds not merely from her peasantry ieeacled
by O'Connell, but from a large section of her ar;sto-
cracy, with the flower of her peerage at its head. TLee
proceedings of the aggregate meeting of the Reformers 't
of held in Dublin on Friday, composed
of names and numbers which must at any pericel com-
mand attentive respect for the sentiments they might
express, will at

for opposition to the present Government because it

policy which was sanctioned by law until the in-
tegrity of the empire. vas jeoperdied by its exis-
tence, do we acknowledge ou.r obligations for the ser-

the anions:ration they hare causedeand. the powerful
appeal they have called forth to the sense of right
and justice whioh, however it may be 1a;,(1 asleep for
a season, will ultimately prevail. To that sense of right
and justice we fearlessly refer the 'exam'eeation of
the principles on which it rests, and theelaiine it em-
bodies :—" Tive great e mass. of the „people in area('
Britain is Protestant, in Ireland ;Ri-enan Catholic

We have received a communication from the
" Church Pastoral Aid Society," by which we per-
ceive that the Committee consider the present io be a I
favourable time for calling the attehrtiohhof the public to
the objects of that. admirable institaftiose . When we
state that the Society's aid is extended Incum-
bents, in charge of .1,776,000,50u15, giving an average
charge to each incumbent of 7,411 souls, the usechl-
ness -of the Society, and the benefits which it has
already conferred on the ecminimity, will be readily
acknowledged. But great as the good is which it has
already effected, much remains to be done. The recent
fatal disturbances which have taken place in Monmouth-
shire, and the discontents which have been there engete-
dared, have been mainly caused by the want of that ;
religious and moral instruction, which it is the endea• ;
Your of this Society to aid in supplying.
(From the Standard.)
This is a startling view of the Bill of 1829. If the
Catholic Emancipation Bill requires that Romaniste
shall 'command pace end profit, and indirectly I
the Government of the empire as Ilmnanists,
the, law is not only in'olerable for a Protestant„ but
disgraceful for any civilized country. Seth a' seeta-
rian divine right, such a hiersiocracy,', was never
before acknowledged among men. See what its
effect must be. Romanists hate Tories with a backbone
hatred. This hatred they conceive because the Tories,
as they call them, resist- their attacks upon the Pro-
testant Church ; hut the Bill of 1829, which, more than
snaking them eligible to office, entitles Romanists pc-
renzi. :turily to office, requires Tories to give them office,
and- as the .Tories cannot be expected to give office to
their backLene enemies, the Tories must be per-
petually excluaed from power. The Romanists have
been aceestomed to call themselves with very little truth
the people cf Ireland, 'b this version of the Act of
1829 would make there tile people of the empire.

fire broke out in the second floor back-room, which was
occupied by a woman named Harris, originated in the
bed-curtain's having ignited, and, before assistance could
be rendered, the unrortunsitc. Woman was so dreads'ody
burned about the head, neck, body, and arms, that she
expired in a few minutes after the fire was discovered.
In a short time the flames were extinguished ; not, how-
ever, before every vestige of furniture tile room con-
