CATHOLIC RENT.

Dunt,”4, JuLy 31.—Yesterday nMeeting WO
held in Liffey-street Chapel, convened by Mr. O'Connell, toe
the purpose of fiwwartling the collection of " the Heat" in t!,e
parish of St. Mary and Union—Mr. O'Kni.t.v in the Chair.
Alt. O'Connell went into an explination or the sub;oct of CA•
tholic rent, which is sanctioned by the Roman :1"
sociation, and now in a stare of collection throopout t!l''
country ; he praised the Associition—attrilair, d to it the et;
tention paid to Irish questions in Palliator:it duilag tle last
Session, when a great portion of the time of zh..! 1 JegiAcure
had been devoted to Irish affairs. He thought they wilful
ultimately, by means of the Rent, obtain redress for the
injuries they laboured under, and give the people the freedno
God bestowed, but which unjust man withheld. It was l'i•
possible but that a Gcvernment, working as it did, should mate
Ireland part of the weakness of Great Britain. He would then.
fore call on every man who loved tranquillity, and was bounl
by allegiance, to express that aspiration of feeling, withotn
which no man deserved to rank above the brute creation. TheY
should exert their faculties to procure redress and insure the
common safety. Money would, as it was every
good ; LOI. a-year had been formerly subscribed by many, "'
tholics, but it struck Win that another scheme could be devised,
better calculated than the old one to answer the intended pur.;._
poses ; the plan in question was, his chins on the gratitude of

said, calculated to relieve 0 millions of people in Ireland,"'s:h;illee
a third of the land still remained untouched by the Vane,
unbroken by the fallow. Mr. O'Connell calculated on the
rent producing 144,375/., which would' be easily collected.
This would produce Emancipation, for no Governmelit
would be mad enough to neglect the appeal of the people
acting thus in open combinition. Lord Eldon, Mr. Peel,
and Lord Liverpool, would come over if they had a docent
excuse for it. He next alluded to the late discussion in
the House, of Commons, relative to the Roman Catholic
Association, and said., he would thank Mr. llrownlow, for
lie had proved that their objects were strictly legitimate; eleven
tag-rag
persons signed the petition against them—all that
could e known of them was, that they mete not known. n,
Association were not illegal, he contended; he had not bee_n,
at his trade twenty-five years for nothing, that they should
be able to state the Association violated any principle of the
Constitution. He then generally commented on the uses to which.
the rent (he said) would be applied, took a review of the state of
Ireland previous to his Excellency the Marquis \Wellesley's sr'
rival, and considered, that as the Government were bringing 3 fe.ci:
tion within the pale of the la w, Ireland was returning to tranqul
lity. Mr. O'Connell made another determined attack upon
the press, and censured Mr. Butterworth, M.P. Alluding to
a late occurrence at Wexford, he defended Roman Catholic
Priests. The people who were present at the murder of tite
child had not, he remarked, interfered, because they thought it
impossible the Priest could have done the child any harm. Ile
asked were there no mad Clergymen on " the other side?"—and
was not Sir H. Lees mad P 'There was no great fear, he thought
that he would be allowed to kill a child for there was no a
mother, young or old, who, on seeing hint approach, would
not snatch up the child in her arms, and let the mad
hunter ride hy.—( Laughter.)—A fter some severe renters,
on Lord Roden, and two other religious meetings at which his
Lordship lately presided, and having taken a review of France
in opposition to the Meeting held last week regarding the die•
tribution of the Bible on the Continent. Mr. O'Connell con•
eluded by saying, he expected the Rent would render Ireland
" great, glorious, and free," &e. &c. &c. He moved for the
appointmet of a Committee of forty-one, (subsequently extad•
ed to one hundred), for the collection of the Rent in that pathlb'
Counsellor Fitzsimmons seconded the motion, and the Ceill•
mit tee was appointed.—(Dublin Correspondent.)

PUBLIC WIIIPPING.--Thursday R 0 bl• Dennei
I the
underwent the disgraceful punishment of flogging t.hre, tig,.ii st
streets of Dunbar, pursuant to the sentence awarded ai,--liot
him by the Ilygli Court of Juieiciary on the 15th inst. i,
brutally assaulting and attempting to cut the throat of Fratl'it,
Findlay. The culprit was taken from the jail about 12 o'clect,
his back having been strippea bare before he was
and fixed by the hands behind one of the town's dust ea...
--The infliction of punishment commenced oppooite the it°
where he received ten lashes ; the cart was then driven up to
the town-head, where twenty more was given, and Jet,.llll'ihe
clown the principal street to opposite the common cos" he
scene of the outrage, where he received the like number;
was then conducted towards the shore, and thence to %ea
Street, at each of which places twenty lashes were inflicted,
re•
when again brought to the port' of the jail he received ihr:d in mottling ten lashes, being the complement of one bun" beinlf
all, and he was then recommitted to the jail, his back

but slightly lacerated. The Magistrates followed
which was not numerous, at a little distance, there bein4ge-
disposition on the part of the. populace 'to interfere in i'aiest
half; on the contrary, the public feeling is decidedly og ted : both him and his paramour, the wife of the man be tretltreafter,
the boys carried them through the streets in effigy, and A

A very extraordinary and liainful scone Pr'e't;

Of the Regent's-park. A young ninn, apparentlY about 3U,

robe-de-chambre, and red morocco slippers, his head enie,
with bandages, and beneath his arm a red leather POre,2rwith

frantic gestures and elevation of his eyes, " Gnu I°°". 110

EA! QUIV DICERE FALSUM AUDEAT

LONDON,
?TUESDAY AUGUST 3, 1824

We have received the Paris Papers of Satur-
day and the Etoile of Sunday) and have given
txtraus from them
Ti in our preceding columns.
"V contain nothing of any importance, except
that there has been a further, decline of the
,1
1:i"ell funds, Which is attributed to rumours of
i! } iturhaitcps in Spain, but has more probably
eee
iticel r a occasioned b
yprevalent idea that the po-
i elations of Europe are far from presenting
ntlicationt of settled and permanent reose. The
tlAseretit p
r-I,roiernments, it is true, profess the
"mast friendship for each others and lose no op-
Portnnity of declaring that there is nothing they
3°
Much desire as the maintenance of peace ; but
44der uti this shot; of mutual friendship and

of identity of views, it is so manifest that their
policy is respectively influenced by opposing
principles, and their measures checked, and
sometimes frustrated, by clashing interests, as to
justify the apprehension that a serious collision
may ere long take place.

We have received advices from Trinidad to
the middle of June ; all was then tranquil ;
hut although the Planters apprehended no violent
or sudden catastrophe from the operation of the
Order in Council, for regulating the employment
and treatment of the Slaves, they continued to
be of opinion that the measure must prove highly
injurious to the Colony. The following is the
only article of intelligence worth inserting :

PORT or SPAIN, JUNE 3.—At a meeting of the Com-
inittee appointed on the 14th of May last, held this day, the
following Resolution was proposed and adopted :

" Resolved,—That as by the vigilance of his Majesty's Go-
vernment, and the imposing appearance of the regular and
militia forces, any overwhelming catastrophe arising from re-
laxation of discipline, and the excitement of unwarrantable ex.
pectations in the ignorant minds of the slave population, which
must come from the enactment of the late Order in Council,
may, under the blessing of Providence, be averted, and the
Colony be subjected only to slow and lingering ruin, which
will not be less oppressive and sure, because exhibited in vexa-
tious detail ; this Committee are of opinion, that the inhabi-
tants should be invited to transmit to the Chairman of this
Board in Port of Spain, a statement of every case in which they
might find themselves in any degree sufferers by loss of time,
labour, or otherwise, under the enactments of the aforesaid
order; and that it be recommended that such statements be
clear, concise, touching upon facts, avoiding, as much as pos-
sible, expressions of opinion, end to give them additional
weight, and to render them useful for the ulterior purposes for
which they areintended ; that they be attested by other respect.
able inhabitants in their vicinity, and sworn to, where practi-
cable, before the Commandant of the quarter, or Alcalde of the
barrier, in which the deponent may reside."
The inhabitants of this Colony are hereby earnestly request-
ed to comply with the recommendations therein contained.
JAMES CADETT, Chairman.
