RELAND.
THE CORPORATION

-On the motion of Counsellor BURY,
KINAIIAN, it was resolved that
2n and Prince Albert should be
ig.her Majesty and her illtistriuus
tie birth of an heir to the throne.
TH VoTE BY BALLOT.

The LORD MAYOII read the next resolution on the
books, which was to take into consideration the propriety
of voting by ballot on certain occasions.
Mr. CALLAGHAN—I gave notice of that motion, and I
regret that the consequence of this notice has been the
abuse of the party giving it, and an imputation upon my
motives. In fact, 1 hare not only been abused, but the
influence of a party has been put upon me, in order to
get rid of this notice. Ido confidently defy any gentle-
man of the Council, your Lordship included, to show any
one act of my life that savoured of jobbing. I will read
a paragraph in the Freeman's Journal, from a speech
in:We at the Corn Exchange, and which I consider tan-
tamount to making a promise for an office in this Cor-
poration.—(hear, hear.) The speech was made by the
Lord Mayor last Monday week, at Burgh-quay 3 and
Mr. Fitzpatrick having proposed that his Lordship should
continue in office another year, the Lord Mayor is re•
ported to have said—
Mr. I'Llinv rose to order. As the reading of a speech
made elsewhere was irregular—
The Long Mivon-1 am of opinion Mr. Callaghan is
in ..rder if he makes it part of his own speech.
Mr. CALLAGHAN—In that speech there is an expres-
sion in which you forestall the appointment of your suc-
cessor, saying that " there was no man in the Corpora-
tion who should be preferred to Cornelius M`Loughlip,
George Roe, and Alderman O'Neil." So Mr. O'Neill

was not to be Lord Mayor fir three years, twO others
being preferred to him. Am Ito be bound by a promise
when coming into this room? And if I am, does not
this look like un infraction of the resolution passed half
'an hour ago? It is also stated in the Report that yon
said you would not be badgered by me.—(Hear.)
The LORD MAYOR—I did not say so.
Mr. CALLAGU.tN—I take it for grand you did
not say so, having made an assertion to That effec ;
but if you bad said it, you mistook my Cha-
racter ; for no one entertains more friendly feel-
ings towards you than I do. You have conferred
great benefits on me and th© party to which I belong;
and I shall never feel otherwise than grateful for
those public acts, and for other acts of vurs ; but I
wish to sec the Council independent of all persons. 1 tt,a
not wish to see any imputation cast on the gentlemou
forming the Council. 1 desire to see it pure. I
you, my Lord Mayor, for the state you have raised IR,.
to, by wholesome agitation ; but wo-cannot be otherwis'y
than slaves if we come into this place fettered by undtto
influence.—(hear.) A great many friends of your Lord-:
ship have said to me that they lamented being fettered
here, and under undue influence.—(Name, name.) I de-
clare in the most solemn manner that such stis,ements
were made to me, and members of the Coußa. have
stated that by the ballot alone they could maintain the
independence of the Council.

The LORD MAYou—Arc you seconded in your reso
lotion ?

Alderman PURCELL—I second the resolution. I do not
do so upon hasty consideration, for I have beeldotigaepi-
nion that the only way to obtain true voting in this
aisetu-
bly would be by the ballot. I am a friend to open voting as
much as any man, but whether in Westminster or at Car-
low, undue influence ought to be counteracted. Thisie
a limited assembly, and it is the necessity of the ease
alone, and not the inclination of my opinion, that makes
me advocate: the vote by ballot. Whatever of oppro-
brium my vote this day may create, I feel I have only
discharged my duty in supporting the motion made by
Mr. Callaghan, as one necessary to intorm the public
that we were independent, and not a mere subservient
branch of the Corn Exchange.—(llear, hear.)
Th, Lunn MAYOR—The reasons given by both the
gentlemen resolve themselves into personal attacks upon
me—the intimidation, the power over the people, -and
the dictation of ;nine. I will put an end to this. I have
sat too long in this choir.—(" No, no.") Gentlemen, I
have prepared a notice for the election of another Lord
Mayor.—(Sensation, and .‘ No, nu.") I hope my ser-
vices are of so much value to Ireland, although I may be
mistaken in your opinion (pointing to the Conservative
benches), that I must not have my acts subject to im-
putation. The imaginary bugbear of my influence, in-
deed ! What is the origin of that influence ? I cannot
promote' any tuan —I cannot give him power—l-
cannot give him titles. My influence arises from inF
community of sentiment with those I represent.—(glean)
lint it is said my influence goes to intimidate. Since I
sat in this chair I have avoided giving offence to any.—
(Hear, . hear.) I have conceded my private political
opinions ; but if this motion be carried it implies that I
have not succeeded in toy object, and tke sooner l retire,
the better.—(No, no.) Hit be carried I will leave this
chair, and also the Corporation.
Alderman PURCELL explained. He alluded to the
great influence of the Repeal Association over which his
Lordship presided, and the weight it gave to hint. It
was with sincerity he spoke of the great services ren-
dered by his Lordship.
Mr. Sv3IES objected to secret voting, as if one person
violated his promise to a second it would reflect diugrace
on the whole Corporation. He concluded by rearing
that Mr. Callaghan's motion should be postponed for six
months.

Akiermau fit ARDIN se,:ouded thin resolution.
Mr. M•Ccl,LAc►n spoke at stmt length in favour of
open vot►ng.

-Mr. M.`.l,oautuN contended that the jobbing the
old Corporation all arose from the ballot.
The 'Joao MAYOR Said that he should emphatically
declare voting by ballot, in that assembly, would be the
pregnant parent of jobbing.
Mr. CALLAGLIAN withdrew his mation, although of his
original opinion, because ho saw that the majority in the
assembly were agaiwit him.
Sir ./. Powun then moved that the Lord Mayor should
withdraw his intended reesignation.—(llear, hear.)
The moti.m being seeonded and carried,
The Loan MAYOIt 'Said he would do sn, and he ac-
cordingly took back from the Town-Clerk the written
resignation.
The assembly adjourned.

SACRED HARMONIC SOCIET Y.
Last night the members of this Society commenet>l
their musical season at Exeter Hall with the performangt`
of Handers Oratorio The Messiah, with Mozart's addi-
tional accompaniments, which we see is likewise an-
nounced for repetition on next Friday evening. The Hail
was exceedingly crowded. His Itoyil Highness the
Duke of Cambridge, the Duchess of Sutherland, arid
other distinguished individuals were present. Befolfe
the oratorio, -" God save the Queen" was finely giien.
We hare repeatedly noticed the able performance of Tike
Mcsviait by the same parties, viz : —Mr. H. Phillips, Mr.
Hobbs, Mr. J. A. Novello, Mr. Young, Miss Birch, tact
Miss Lueombe. The solo singers, the band, and chorus
of the Society deserve high praise for their execution. of
Handers divine strains. Last night the performance
was masterly. The beautiful and well-known passages—
" Comfort ye" (Hobbs), " Rejoice greatly" (Miss Birch),
" For unto us a child'' (chorus), the " Hallelujah" (cho-
rus), " The trumpet shall sound" (Phillips, with Har-
per's trumpet obligato), justly produced the most enthu-
siastic applause. only restrained by a, proper sense of the
sacredness of the subjects, and testified that, however
touch foreigners may surprise by their execution of se•
solar music, the English stand foremost in the perform-
ance of sacred compositions. This is a fact the more.
remarkable, us our cathedrals and churches present but
scanty means for the perfecting of Our singers in cede-
- siastical music, as compared with those of
similar esta-
blishments in Catholic Europe ; in which, from morn to
dewy. eve—
