LONDON, THURSDAY, JULY 20, 1848.

We cannot censure the Irish Government for

The provisions of the " Act for the"
better pre„n.
tion of Crime and Outrage in Ireland will at length
be rigidly enforced. The Earl of CLARENDox, who
throughout the whole of the trying period during
which he has been invested with the Vice-royalty of
the sister kingdom, has exhibited the greatest for-
bearance in bringing into operation
h the
di enormous
powers with which he was intrusted, asdiscovered
that prompt and vigorous action can no longer be dis-
pensed with, and that it was absolutely essential, if
not for the. maintenance of the connexion between
the two countries, at least for the preservation of many
valuable lives, that would necessarily be sacrificed in the
event, of any attempted outbreak—however speedily it
might be crushed—to arrest the progress of treason,
and to enforce obedience to the Government of the
country. It was time that a systematic and organized
violation of the law should be suppressed, and that
the sedition-mongers who for their own base pur-
poses stimulated a too excitable population to acts of
hostility against their best friends, and also the un-
fortunate dupes who listened to the insidious advice
of the tempters, should be taught that the majesty of
the law must be respected, and that any attempted
violation thereof would most assuredly be followed
by the infliction of severe and well-merited punishment.
The painful but necessary step has therefore been
taken. 'Proclamations have issued, bringing the cities
of Dublin, Cork, Waterford, and Drogheda, and also
certain baronies in Cork and Waterford under the
operation of that salutary law, and it is certain that
further proclamations will be published without any
delay, calling upon all persons within the disturbed
districts, who shall not obtain licenses for the reten..
tion of fire-arms and other weapons of offence, to sur-
render the same into the hands of officers appointed
for that purpose, within a limited period, and exposing
all those who neglect or refuse to obey such directions
to the stringent penalties prescribed by the statute.
Similar proceedings will also be adopted in every
other locality where seditious clubs have been or-
ganized,i and where the well-disposed and loyal in-
habitants are kept in a state of terror and excitement
from the acts of those misguided men who seek to
involve their unhappy country in al the horrors of
in internecine war.
