IRELAND.
CONCILIATION HALL.
DUBLIN, FEB. 2.—The usual weekly meeting of the Re-
peal Association took place in Conciliation Hall on Monday
last. James O'Kelly, Esq., M.P.' in the chair.
The Cminstax addressed the meeting at considerable
length on the present political prospects of the country, iu
the course of which he expressed his determination not to
attend his duties in Parliament.
Mr. STEELE next addressed the meeting, and denounced a
series nf resolutions which had been proposed in the Ameri-
can House of Congress, suggesting the annexation of Ireland
to that country upon requisition from Ireland. Those reso-
lutions have already appeared in the London journals; they
were brought to Europe by the packet-ship, arrived at Liver-
pool last week.
Mr. S. O'BmEN addressed the meeting at considerable
length, and spoke of Sir R. Peel's policy as being wholly di-
rected to the advancement of English interests, regardless of
benefit to Ireland, and asserted as his opinion that 'that would
be in a great measure its effect. He contended that the
police of Ireland ought to be borne upon the public revenues,
without any reference to a corn-law. Mr. O'Brien went on
to detail his views upon the corn laws, which are not, as his
speech at Limerick will have shown, in unison with those of
Mr. O'Connell. But upon one view of the effect of the re-
peal of the corn-laws, the Mn. Gentleman said there was no
difference of opinion, and that was, that repeal of the corn-
laws would advance repeal. It was certain that the admis-
sion of Irish corn into England without the imposition of a
duty had been bestowed upon Ireland as an advantage, and
the Irish people were not so stolid as to give up this
advantage without feeling that wrong was inflicted upon
their MAtill Th 9 gentleinii AO that gpalaci,

obtain her corn from Bremen and Odessa, and her baccl!
from America, on the same terms that Ireland hereafter egF,
send it into that country, and they cannot be content untilc_
they- have security that an Eng Legislature shall not ba
the power to deprive themselves and their country of an 114

vantage.
Mr. O'NEILL seconded the adoption of the report.
After some routine business,
Mr. DonExy proceeded to address the association. geld
a report ui.ou the subject of Lunatic Asylums in Irelands
5d
the course of which he stated that, cf the officers
in that association, there were 3,863 Protestants, and
763 Catholics.
The week's rent, it -was stated, will be about 270/.

town by five or six men, who beat him so severely:,tio
died on the following Thursday. An inquest was betdru;d to

coroner, that the party who committed them ur,,ther fs',;
told that some of their friends were beaten by envittoosew
tion, when they hastened in the direction for the P.rst- thiti
taking vengeance, arid this poor man being the ,bgtasf.
