( NELL is bound, we think, in proposing the legis-
lative separation of Ireland, to sketch the plan by
which the other parts of the empire may be govt rut d
after the great constitutional chine is made which
he proposes. If he lad suggested an equal Fede-
ral Union of the three parts of the empire, each
with its Parliament, some Centtal Legisla-
tive body representing the whole, by which, for
the benefit of all, our vast colonial empire
might be administered-,--for it has been built up by ,

difficulties there might be in carrying out
three
such a plan, that there was something grand, states-
manlike, and philosophic in the conception. •
Mr. O'CONNELL'S view is much narrower.
His cuckoo cry is merely for repeal, and he points
out no plan by which any portion of the empire,
not even Ireland, is to be governed after he has
accomplished the separation. The mere repeal
might give to Ireland her. Parliament and her mimic.
Court, as they existed before the Union ; but that
Parliament was exclusively Protestant. No Catho
lic had a seat in it ; and the first consequence of
the repeal would be to deprive Mr. O'CONNELL
of all legislative power. As M. OCONNELL'6
crude ::cherne makes no provision even for such a
case, to say nothing further of the important con-
siderations we have so briefly adverted to—we can
only pronounce it short-sighted and nonsensical—
if it do not deserve, politically speaking, the name
of fraudulent. He is either totally ignorant, and
totally void of reflection, as to the consequences of
his own scheme, or he does not mean what he says.
He has in view some other oilject than the Repeal of
the Union, anti is merely hutnbugging his susceptible
countrymen for some purpose of his own. We are
grieved to say this. No persons are more sensible
than we are of the great service Mr. O'CONNELL
has done the Liberal cause ; or more honour and
more applaud than we do the great exertions by
which he has conferred invaluable benefits on his
country; but we cannot be silent when we see the
Liberal cause weakened or injured by those on whom
it relies for support.
Mr. O'CONNELL, we are bound to suppose,
would not restore the Irish Parliament as it existed
before the Union ; the repeal, therefore, implies a
totally new constitution for his own country, such
as it never had before. He is venturing on a great
and untried experiment, and the experience of for-
mer times gives no countenance to his proceedings.
The Parliament of Ireland, when Ireland had an
independent Parliament, with the single exception
of calling out the volunteers during the American
war, seems never to have conferred any benefit on
Ireland at all equal to the legislative benefits con-
ferred by the Imperial Parliament. The unlimited
freedom of trade with every part of the empire, Ca-
tholic Emancipation, the reduction of the Church
Establishment,. the conversion of tithes into a rent-
charge, with a great reduction in their amount, are
some of the legislative improvements which have
grown out of the Union, and are unequalled in any
other similar period of her history. The laws
passed by the Imperial Parliament favourable to
Ireland since the Union, amount to a great revo-
lution peaceably effected. The heated disputes
which frequently take place in the Imperial Parlia-
ment between Mr (nor:NELL and Mr. SHAW.
Sergeant JACKSON and Mr. GRATTAN, Mr.
LITTON and Mr. BARRON, are a faint index to
the intemperate discussions which would take place
in a Parliament, constituted solely of such vehe-
ment partisans, meeting in College-green. The
Protestants would fight hard, and either the years
would roll away in fierce party contentions, the Irish
Parliament would achieve_ nothing ; or the more
Inumerous Catholics would trample the Protestants
under foot, and excite-the 'hostility et—itier other
parts of the empire. Mt. O'CONNELL'S project,
Itherefore, however prolific of confusion and anarchy,
would never tend either to promote the prosperity
of Ireland, or the peace of the empire.
In contending against the Repeal of the Union,
I we by 110 means think that Ireland has been justly
treated, or that Mr. O'CONNELL has not a good
cause to appeal to his countrymen. Though the
Church has been reduced, it still exists, and is an
insult as well as an injury to the Catholics. The
Electoral and Corporation Reforms for Ireland were
incomplete and insulting. Undoubtedly, too, the
mode in which such petulant and virulent tongued
men as Lord STANLEY, and such heavy, prejudiced
people as Sir JAMES GRAHAM and Sir ROBERT
INGLIS, speak and legislate for Ireland, are quite
enough to stir up the blood of the Irish, and goad
then, into mischievous, revengeful projects like the
Repeal.

and to call them round his standard of repeal must
be a most pleasing homage to his power. But what
is personally satisfactory to him, and strictly in ac-
cordance with the excited feelings and prejudices of
his countrymen, may not be beneficial to the
empire at large ; and we expect a statesman
to discard all personal consideration and consult tilt
general welfare. If Mr. O'CONNELL do not that,
what better is
.lie than Scorpion STANLEY ? Ire-
land labours under one great grievance which two-
thirds of the empire would help Mr.O'CoNNELL to
redress. A Protestant sinecure endowed Church,vvhilt
die people are nearly all Catholics, is a disgrace and
a nuisance. Let Mr. O'CONNELL boldly attack
that Church, and be not content till it is destroyed
—let him hoist the banner of religious liberty, let
him proclaim fur Ireland the voluntary system and
the appropriation of all the revenues of the Church
to the use of the Catholic people, and lie will be
supported by all that is virtuous, wise, honest, ants
sincere throughout the empire.

The French Journals of Thursday present us
with a deplorable picture of the disaffection which
prevails among the operatives of Paris, Lyons,
•Strasburg, acid most of the great manufacturing
towns of Fiance. Low wages, and long hours are
not the best preparatives for the calm expression
of popular wrongs, and with no other have the
workmen of Lyons been for many years
Political agitatioa is but little understood in
France. The masses are stiangers to the mode
,of exercising the elements of Constitutional op-
position to Governmental oppression. In this
re,pect they are a century behind the working
men of England, Scotland, and Ireland !
The strike among the trades began with the
tailors, who, from their numbers and intelligence,
constitute a very formidable body. On Wedtftsday
:he carpenters and the smiths turned out, and on
Thur.day the masons left off work, and assembled
hundreds outside the city, where they held
ineetings, in defiance of the law and the audio•
reties. We have copied from Galignani of Thurs-
day the details which have appealed in the French
Journals, to which we refer such of our readers
as take an interest in the proceedings of the work-
ing classes of France.

On the Eastern question we find nothing new in
the Paris papers. A Marseilles Journal supplies
some very interesting correspondence from Alexan-
dria, which will be found in another part of The
Sun.

We have received the knowing letter :
" TouLoN, AUG. 30.—Yesterday evening the Tar-
tar.s steaintr anchored in the road of the Lazaretto.
This vessel, which left Alexandria with important d,,s-
patches sore e days after the depArtme of the Ettot, left
that port on the 18th of August, with a telegraphic
despatch of M. Cochelet, our Consul, and a packet for
the President of the Council of Ministers. The Tar-
tare has brought no ph% ate letters whatever Ad that
was known is that the Bellerophon, an English ship of
the line, belongiml to the :squadron under the command
of Admiral Stoptord, had arrived on the coast of E4ypt,
and that more ships of the same nation were expected
very shortly."

tiv Courtier de Lyon of S,ptember 1, says,—
" rift. discoveries lately made by the police appear to
be of no real important:, ; there ate only some papers
nlative to olu plots, which have been taken from their
dusty repositories, where they lay without any danger to
the public tranquillity."
The Courtier de Lyon says the citizens who have
been lately arrested are treated very harshly, and kept
in the molt rigorous seclusion. Such rigour seems te
us to be wholly useless; for the whole affair is but an of-
fence of forming an As,ociation ; at least so it appears,
iccordieg to all the facts known up to this day. Too
citizens who ere arrested deserve to be treated with
sonic reT.ard, for they are generally esteemed.—Le Con.
stitutionel.

The Courrier de Lynn, the journal of the Prefeetu-e,
at lern:th breaks sileuce respecting the arrests which
have lately taken place in that city. The following
paragr.iph on that subj• et is in its number of Septem-
ber 1 :--

" Within these hew days we have heard of several
arri-sts. which have token Wee in the city. From the
Information which we have obtained it seems they are
connected with s,,veral political intrigues. Writs have
been issued, and eight or ten persons have been arrested.
S+.veral inculpatory documents have rallen into the
hands of the police, among which arc a red cap and a
number of copies of the regulations of a Secret S :ciety,
coked de l'Avehir. There is no printer's name to them,
and it is supposed they were printed at a private press,
which has also been seized.—Le Cummerre.

VACCINATION.—The Poor-law Commissioners have
issued instructions, as they are authorised, by the Act to
extend the practice of vaccination. pa,sed in the last
session, to the Guardi.tns of the different tioion, for
the suppression of inoculation and the promotion of
vaccination :

" The number of deaths," they say, " registered as
caused by small-pox, dur ng the two years and a halt
ended Decemher 31, 1839, was 30,000, which gives
about 12,000 deaths annuady in England. and Wales.
It appears that the extremes of mortality at the Small
Pox Hospital, in London, amongst those attacked by
he disease hove been 15 per cent., and 42 per cent.
In some districts the mortality from small-pox is stated
obe one in six of those attacked. But if, according
to other statements, the average mortality be taken at
,ine in four, or 25 per cent. of those attacked, the num-
•ter of persons attacked in England and Wales mu,t
mount on an average to n-arty 50.000 pers-ns ; or

in the case of the labouring classes loss of labour and

we: may hope, however, now that the subject has
teen seriously taken up by the la,lolature, that Eng-
;,ind wilt soon get rid of this scourge, like several con-
:ineotal states whence it has been entirely banished by
he prohibition to practice inoculation. The instruc-
ti -ns of the Commissioners, as far as we emi judge, ap-
pear to be wisely drawn, and they are accompanied with
Acplanations, which may become the basis of carrying
conviction to the people as well as preventing disease.
