"At which day, before our Lady the Queen, and
the Peers in the same Court of Parliament now here
at Westminster, in the county of Middlesex, as-
sembled, come as well the sail. Daniel O'Connell,
John O'Connell, Thomas Mathew Ray, Thomas

Barrett, by their attorneys, as the Right Hon. Thomas

and the affirmance thereof as the several matters

lowing extracts from the Irish papers show the
effect which the first announcement of the " great
fact" of the victory of O'Connell produced in dif-
ferent parts of the country :
Having thus carefully revived the history of this
writ of error, and followed it to its triumphant end—
the liberation of the prisoners—we must look ahead
once more. The political importance of what has
happened is immense. The prosecutions began to
suppress the monster meetings ; every artifice, no
matter how low—every insolence, no matter how
fierce, was used to get a verdict. It was got ; the
parties put into prison pending an appeal ; and now
they are liberated, their sentence declared illegal, and
their power of agitation restored. So sharp an i
sudden a blow has staggered the Ministry—they can
never recover from it. Their vicious labours have
been thrown away—their illegality exposed. Ireland
was irritated, organised, and disciplined, by the im-
prisonment of her chiefs; and now those chiefs are
rest zed, without favour or concession, by a legal vic-
tory. If we use our success to strengthen our faith,
to prompt our studies, to stimulate our organisation,
and to confirm our order, this reversed judgment will
overthrow, not a Minister merely, but English rule
in Ireland.—Nation.
It would be an idle attempt, we acknowledge it, to
express, adequately, the veneration which we feel for
the three Whig law Lords, who saved England and
the empire from the infamy of confirming the judg-
ment of the Irish judges—who saved the Constitution
from the fatal blow which a wicked faction endea-
voured to inriiet vii a subject of Cilia realm—and it is
needless to add, that we are utterly incapable of find-
ing words to express our admiration for the Lord
Chief Justice of England. Whether, in future, con-
spiracies to entrap a political opponent, and to work
injustice, under the forms of law—the-re will be an
attempt to poison the fountains of justice—to steal
jury lists—to pack juries—and to corrupt them;
whether, in future, law officers of the Crown will
be found to act, as those unfortunate men bearing
the office have recently done in Dublin—whether
judges will be found to address such juries—if they
could be scraped together now—in the tone of a rabid
advocate for conviction, and in the temper of a fierce
fanatic—whether those odious and disgusting exhi-
bitions can hereafter be repeated—we say not. But
this we may affirm, that they will not be repeated
with impunity—this we may assert, that justice will
be done on the juries, the advocates, and on the judge.
While the Lord Chief Justice of England lives—and
long, long may he enjoy his honours, his dignity, and
his fame ! long may England glory in her first judge,
as Ireland shall long remember him with gratitude
and exultation—as long as Lord Denman lives, no
such gross injustice—no such ignorance—no such
virulence will be allowed to go unstigmatised, un-
punished. But, the example—it will be enduring as
the Constitution.—Dublin Evening Post.
The transports which the glorious announcement
of O'Connell's liberation created in Belfast yesterday
:norning were such, we believe, as no other event,
how auspicious soever, could have produced. Those
who first heard the glad tidings, hurried with joyous
looks from house to house, and from friend to friend,
happy and proud to communicate them. " Did you
hear the news ?" " I say, O'Connell is out, sure."
" Glorious news this morning," and a hundred such
exclamations were heard on every side. In ten
minutes after the first breath of rumour whispered it
abroad, cur office was literally stuffed full of people,
eager to catch up the slightest word about the all-
absorbing topic. Some enthusiasts proposed a bon-
fire at once in Smithfield, to give the people an op-
portunity of expressing their exultation publicly; but
this proposal was overruled, to guard against the re-
motest occasion of riot. This was prudent, as a quiet
triumph is better than public rejoicings, which the
malignants may turn into pretexts for disturbing the
peace. The Wardens are taking the proper steps.—
Belfast Vindicator.
Cork, and we believe Ireland, has been taken by
surprise by the arrival of the all-important and
glorious news of the liberation of the father of his
country. Whilst we write our ears are deafened by
the cheering of the thousands who surround our
office. Gentlemen, known for years for their devo-
tion to Ireland and her cause, are addressing the
people from the windows of the Chamber of Com-
merce. Women lose their shrinking delicacy, and
join the melee. Never were man or people the one so
worthy of the other. The people have just seized our
placard, which announced the reversion of the sen-
tence, and are bearing it on a pole through the
city. In every district its annunciation is hailed
with cheers of delight. The windows of
the houses all through are filled with de-
lighted spectators, who join the enthusiastic multi-
tude below in their loud huzzas. Another crisis for

LIBERATION OP 'DIE STATE PRISONERS.
(From a Correspondent of a Morning Contemporary.)
DUBLIN, SUNDAY, SA;PT. B.—This day there was
the celebration in the Catholic metropolitan church of
high mass, v
and a Te Dm, in thanksgiving for the
liberation from prison of Mr. O'Connell, and those
who have been associated with him in punishment.
The fatal course of policy
adopted by the party of Sir
Robert Peel, both when ±n opposition, and ever since
they have constituted the government, has given them
the character of being persecutors of those professing
the Catholic religion. Their denunciations of the
concessions made by the Whigs when, in accordance
with the Reform Bill, they made a few Roman
Catholics Members of the Privy Council, their outcry
because one or two Catholics had been promoted to
the bench by the late Government, and their attacks
upon the Catholic priesthood of this country, prepared
the Irish people to regard their acts with suspicion
when they attained power. No subsequent conduct
on the part of the Tories was calculated to remove
that suspicion. On the contrary, their promotion to
the bench and the mitre, of the most virulent de-
nouncers of the creed of the nation, showed that
Toryism, as represented by Sir Robert Peel's Go-
vernment, was still a consistent foe to their faith, and
they found that enmity assume the form of a virulent
persecution, when it excluded every Catholic from the
Jury for the trial of Mr. O'Connell.
sue ;s:errescs• bfiiu. aiuLaate the
Catholic people of Ireland, it cannot be considered as
a matter of surprise that they should regard the
recent victory not merely as a political triumph, but
estimate it still more as a defeat of the enemies of the
Roman Catholic religion. If it were not so looked
upon, it is not probable that the Catholic Archbishop
of Dublin—one who has carefully abstained from a'l
participation in political movements of any descrip-
tion—would have given to the ceremonies of this day
the sanction of his authority. Up to this time, Dr.
Murray has refused taking any part in the repeal
agitation. I believe he has even discountenanced it
to the utmost of his power. I cannot say that his
opinions have changed on the subject. I should
suppose they have not ; bat of course, when he ap-
pears in a proceeding like that which I have just
witnessed, it could only be because he regarded it as
necessary for the vindication of a religion that has
been assailed, and which it is his prime duty to
watch over and protect. How strong the feeling of
persecution inflicted on men, because they are Catho-
lics, is proved when such an individual comes
forward to repel it. The fact is one too important,
in the present state of Ireland, to be overlooked. It
ought to be known in England ; but, above all, it
ought to be known to those who wield the govern-
mental powers of England.
The manner in which the proceedings of this day
were notified to the public was the following :
" PONTIFICAL HIGN MASS AND SOLEMN TB DEUM,
IN THE METROPOLITAN CHURCH, ON SUNDAY, THE BTH
INSTANT, AT ELEVEN O'CLOCE.His Grace the Arch-
bishop will officiate at the Solemn Pontifical High Mass,
in thanksgiving to Almighty God for the deliverance
of the beloved Liberator of his country, and of his
fellow-martyrs, from their unjust captivity. The
sermon by the Rev. Dr. Miley. The Te Deum'
will be chauated immediately after mass. The Libe-
rator and the other martyrs will be present."
The metropolitan church, as the principal Catholic
building in this city is called, is a noble temple of
the Doric order of architecture, and is sufficiently
spacious to accommodate several thousand persons.
The front portico, which is very lofty, is raised on
an elevated flight of steps, and is formed of six mas-
sive columns. There are smaller porticos on each of
the sides ; a beautiful dome rises in the centre ; and
the whole edifice is composed of hewn stone. But if
the style of the exterior be classic and severe, that of
the interior is still more so, being altogether in the
fashion of a Grecian temple. It is divided into three
parallel naves, by lines of magnificent columns ; the
ceiling is lofty and semi-circular ; and on the outside
is a representation of the Ascension, in bas relief.
The higk altar and tabernacle are of white
marble, sculptured in an exquisite style of art. The
altar rises at a distance from the east end of the
church, in the style of the continental cathedrals; the
space railed in around it is styled the sanctuary, and
on the left-hand side of this space was raised a lofty
throne, with a crimson canopy, for the Archbishop ;
whilst on the opposite side, near the foot of the
pulpit, were placed chairs of state for O'Connell and
his Catholic fellow-prisoners. Several seats in the
immediate vicinity of Mr. O'Connell's chair were oc-
cupied by the menihers of his family, whilst all the
Catholic families of distinction now in Dublin and its
neighbourhood were present.
At the time that the religious ceremonies of the
day commenced, the scene that presented itself was of
a very peculiar description. On the left of the
altar sat on his episcopal throne, with his rich
mitre, gorgeous robes, and bearing in his hand his
burnished pastoral staff, the Catkolic Archbishop of
Dublin—a venerable, dignified man—the very per-
sonification of a high priest of an ancient faith
below him were his attendant priests, and then..
there stood upon the altar the officiating
priest, the Rev. Dr. Laphen, whilst, on a line, two or
three steps below him, was the deacon, and two or
three steps lower down again,
the sub-deacon, mid
ranged beneath the lowest steps, and fronting the
altar, were boys in rich scarlet robes, bearing tapers,,
the censer, and the other appurtenances suitable sto
ceremonies of the day. On.the., right was Mi*.
O'Connell, his son, and Mr. Ray;, and the other
traversers on a raised platform ; and then there were
all parts of the church, the organ loft, the recesses
even beneath the
roof, crowded to the uttermost,
whilst the incense ascended, and rich strains of sweet
music were chanted forth, amid the pealing of the
organ, over which a very clever musician, Mr. Corsi,
presided. Such a scene was calculated to inspire a
stranger with feelings of devotion. What must be
its effect, coupled with the occasion on which it
originated, upon the minds of the Roman Catholics,
partici-
pator in the devotions of the day ?
by his prayers, was a every
.one of whom,
The sermon delivered was by the Rev. Dr. Miley,
one of the most distinguished preachers of this city.
In the course of his address, which was a very
powerful one, he referred to that day as being a
great festival in the Catholic Church, that of " the
Nativity of the Blessed Virgin ;" and he observed
that coincident with its celebration this remarkable
incident had occurred with Mr. O'Connell, and those
members of his family, as well as of the other pri-
soners who were in communion with the Catholic
Church, viz., that when all hope from human aid
had appeared to be vain when all succour from
man might well be despaired of—it had been sug-
gestedyapious
the intercession of the
Catholic clergyman, to
pasny sedt to them,rrcia ,enfo, by
throughthat justice which it seemed that
man was determined to deny to them. The devo-
tion of the Novena in honour of the Nativity was
begun, and the last day upon which it terminated
was completed, when Mr. O'Connell and the others
were free, but not until then. It was to say the last
prayers of thanksgiving—the last prayers appointed
by the church—that Mr. O'Connell had returned to
the prison, to pass from thence to the car of triumph.

tdso far beyond human

cause had said to him, that though he had heard the
er
judgment reversed, had seen men congratulate them-
selves on the event, and was himself the bearer of the
official document, still he could not believe it to be
true. The reverend preacher also remarked, that the
idea of having those peculiar prayers, for the inter-
cession of the Virgin, was suggested to the mind of
the priest who conducted the devotion by observing
that Mr. O'Connell had, in the speech at Tara,
noticed that the day was commemorative of " the
that hebegged for the
assumption,"
of the Virgin to protect the cause in which he
was engaged, that being one which had
for its
object an improvement in the condition of the help-

other events that were notorious in history, to show,
as he said, the coincidence between prayers to the
blessed Virgin, and the fulfilment of them, contrary
to all human probability.
Those portions of the sermon referring to Mr.
O'Connell and the state of Ireland produced a great
sensation in the church.
The religious ceremonies of the day were not ter-
minated until two o'clo .ck At that time Mr. O'Con-
nell left the church, and was accompanied by hundreds
on his way home, all testifying by their cheers the
delight they felt in seeing him once more restored to
liberty.

BRUSSELS, SEPT. 5.—A Belgian manufacturer
has undertaken to form a settlement at Campos, in
Brazil, in order to introduce there the cultivation of
flax, and a great number of Belgians were invited to
join in this enterprise. The Government has lately
received from the Belgian Consul at Rio information
respecting this settlement which are very unpardon-
able. Several of the Belgian settlers have quitted
Campos in the greatest distress, to complain to the
Belgian Consul at Rio, of the non-performance of the
promises or engagements which induced them to go
to Brazil. On the 20th of May the Consul expected
more of them. Those who had already come to Rio
refuse to return to Campos, unless the Brazilian Go-
vernment will guarantee the performance of the en-
gagements contracted with them.

Plenipotentiary of the States of Nicaragua and Hon-
duras, who has just accomplished an important mis-
sion at Paris, arrived at Brussels yesterday, with all

At the close of the procession in honour of the
liberation of Mr. O'Connell and his fellow-prisoners,
the Hon. and Learned Gentleman addressel the im-
mense multitude from the balcony of his house in
Merrion-square, in these words :
Fellow Countrymen,—This is a great day for
Ireland—(Tremendous applause)—a day of justice
and retribution ; and you know that all we wanted or
desired was justice.—(Cheers.) We have got one in-
stalment of that justice at any rate. After a foul at-
tempt to convict eight honest men of conspiracy, and
after suffering imprisonment upon an illegal judg-
ment, we are now free ; and Ireland may yet be
what she deserves to be—a nation.—(Loud cheers.)
Do I doubt the people of Ireland that they wish to be
tranquil and peaceable ? No. If I did I would be
worse than the basest of mankind ; for have I not
the experience of years past which tells me that
they will obey my commands ?—(Hear, hear.) Have
I not tried the experiment of collecting millions
together, who would lay down their lives for me ;
every one of whom upon all occasions conducted
themselves with as much simplicity and gentleness
as children ?—(Hear, hear.) Yes, from north to south
—from east to west—the congregated millions hare
assembled with such order and regularity, that it is
plain to the world that Ireland will lie free.—(Ap-
plause.) We have held our monster meetings—all
passed off peaceably—and there is but one remaining
to be held—the meeting of Clontarf—(Hear)—that
meeting which, I am sorry to say, I fear was intended
to be put down by a deluge of blood, because I cannot
let it escape from my mind that there was a scheme
concocted to disperse the people by force. However, I
did not give them an opportunity of carrying out
their intentions, for I issued my counter-proclama-
tion, advising the people not to put themselves in
danger ; and they took my advice, and foiled their
enemies.—(Hear and cheers.) What is the conse-
quence ? Why, since that, you are aware that the
Government has endeavoured to make out that those
meetings were illegal; but I think I have proved
myself to be a better lawyer than the Attorney-
General, for after all their verdicts given by packed
juries, and judgments by corrupt judges, here I am
once more free.—(Cheers.) The Clontarf meeting was
not held, and perhaps it should be held, to carry out our
principle, and to show that we were right.—(Hear.)
I do not say that it should be held. I do not think it
should, but that will be a matter for the future con-
sideration of the committee of the Repeal Association;
and if they think it should, we will hold it, and show
the Government that we acted legally, and that it
acted illegally.—(Cheers). I have a secret for you,
my friends, which is, that we will now do every-
thing necessary to obtain a repeal by peaceable and
legal means. They told you that if you took my
advice before, that you would cut your own throats.
Was that the case :P Who was right ? Whether
was my law or the Attorney-General's confirmed by
the House of Lords ?—(Great applause). You know
the result, and I need not detain you by repeating it.
They.said I had meditated treason, and was guilty of
conspiracy. They lie ; and I'll tell you who said
they lied—Lord Denman.—(Loud cheers). Yes, he
told them so to their teeth, and we have obtained a
victory—the first, fair, and full victory over them—
and we will keep it. Won't you stand by me ?
A Voice.—We will, till death.
Mr. O'CoNNELL—Yes, you will stand by me peace-
ably and determinedly, and, in spite of political jues,
succeed in obtaining Irish independence.—(Here
several of the bands struck up lively airs, upon which
he called out, " Stop those rascally bands," and con-
tinued as follows :)—I will not now develop all my
plans, for I would not have time at this late hour,
and, had I plenty of time, I would not detain you
under the rain ; however, upon Monday I will be at
my post in the Conciliation Hall, to tell you what I
intend to do, with your sanction ; and in the mean-
time I have only.to implore of you to be peaceable,
to have no illumination—not one candle is to be lit.
That is my wish—it is my command.—(Cheers.) At
the termination of the trial I told the people of Ireland
that justice had not been done us. I reiterate that
sentiment, and declare the judgment to have been an
iniquitous one, which I will show you more fully
upon a future occasion, or perhaps on Monday, when
I will detail my plans at large. Listen to my advice.
No illuminations, and we will meet again, when you
shall know what it is intended to do. I will not de-
tain you longer than to express my gratitude to God
for his providential interposition upon my behalf—
for there were a million to one odds against my ac-
quittal, after the decision of the English judges. Yet,
by His interposition and all-ruling providence we
are free. Hurrah for the repeal !—(Tremendous
applause.)
At the conclusion of the speech Mr. O'Connell re-
tired, and Mr. Steele, O'Connell's head Pacit ficator,
came forward, and desired the people to go o their
homes. They at once quietly. dispersed.
Although the decision of the House of Lords has
been received throughout Ireland with the most en-
thusiastic joy, in no one instance has the public
peace been broken—the law has released the Libera-
tor, and that law has in no single instance been vio-
lated by those who rejoice at his triumph. The fol-

from Berlin of the Ist of September :
" A great uneasiness is felt for the corn trade of
the Baltic provinces, and especially for the trade of
Dantzic, where immense quantities of wheat are ac-
cumulated, which cannot be disposed of except
in case of a bad harvest in England ; but as
it is better this year than it has been
for a long time, the merchants of Dantzic
being obliged to keep their corn, are threa-
tened with considerable louses. One house has
already failed for 180,000 dollars, and it is feared
that several others, and more considerable houses,
will share the same fate."

Ireland has arrived. Had the Queen of England,
with her own right royal hand unbarred his dungeon,
it could not have been received in the same light.
Simple justice and the cause of Ireland are triumphant
in his person. Men of Cork !he is your representa-
tive, as well as the father of your country, be the
first to honour the patriot-martyr and yourselves, and
invite him to Cork. On the eve of his trial and im-
prisonment he sat in your banquet-hall ;on the day
of his triumph let him witness a similar ovation.
Hurrah for the repeal and O'Connell ! The Chamber
of Commerce will be illuminated this evening ; and
we hope that our fellow-citizens generally will follow
the example.—Cork Examiner.

By means of the new line of steamers between
Dover and Ostend, we received yesterday the Eng-
lish journals of the morning of the same day.
JENA, AUG. 31.—The statement that the Tschet-
schenses had been taken to the Russian fortress
Derbend, by them in the month of May, is un-
founded, for our traveller, Professor Koch, of this
place, was in that town at the end of June, and vi-
sited some military colonies in the neighbourhood.
The theatre of war is, however, not far distant,
and travellers are not safe without an escort.

The intelligence that the decision of the House
of Lords on the writ of error was in favour of a
reversal of the judgment which had caused the
Liberator and his co-martyrs to be impri-
soned in Richmond Penitentiary, arrived in Ne-
nagh at six o'clock on Friday morning, by the mail
from Dublin, and seldom, if ever, do we remember to
have witnessed such a motion as that intelligence
created. _As if by magic, the streets became
intensely crowded with people who had heard the
report in various parts of the town, where it
spread like wildfire, and who sped to where they
deemed the truth was to be learned. Various bands
immediately assembled, and marched through the
streets in procession, playing lively airs, and ac-
companied by thousands of persons, whose shouts
rent the air, and tore off branches of trees, which
they waved aloft in their inexpressible and unspeak-
able joy. As the day proceeded the streets became
more crowded—the various flags and colours of the
trades' societies, were placed on poles at the Market-
cross—business' Was entirely neglected—the people
could talk of nothing, think of nothing, but the
glorious victory which the Liberator had obtained
over the enemies of Ireland. The dim eyes of aged men
lit up with pleasure—the young men walked with
a firm step, and their countenances bespoke the gay
delight that animated their hearts—while children,
who could scarcely talk, lisped, " O'Connell is
free !" All were happy. Nothing was to be heard
but the wild shout of delight ; poverty—suffering—
hunger—all were forgotten. The freedom of the
Liberator was the dearest object of their hearts ;
and by their actions they showed how much they
loved—how much they idolised the
" Victor of a hundred fights."

Yesterday, after the account had arrived of the
reversal of the judgment against Mr. O'Connell and 1
his associate conspirators, joy, mingled with fear and
doubt, were generally expressed, lest, as the familiar
phrase is, " the news was too good to be true." All
doubts of the fact, however, having been soon dissipated,
every countenance was lighted up, and gave testimony
to the most powerful emotions. But the feeling mani-
fested was not one of thanksgiving, or of gratitude for
favours conferred, or even contemplated. Oh, no ;
the state prosecutors barred that.
The citizens met at twelve o'clock, the mayor in
the chair, and passed resolutions, which were ably in-
troduced by the respective movers and seconders.
It was expected by many that there would be
illuminations, and a wish was strongly expressed
to that effect; but upon a full explanation, and
remonstrance of Dr. Cane, who pointed out the
manifest inconveniences and mischiefs that illumina
tions might produce, with the best feeling possible the
thought was at once abandoned—the " Boys " being
fully content with bonfires, which, while we write,
are blazing in all the open spaces around us, and on
the hills and dales of the county.--KilkennyJournal.

That this is a triumph, a great and glorious triumph,
there is no doubt. That it has taken Ireland by
surprise we will not deny. Why should we ? Ac-
customed as we have been to the grossest and most
shameless tyranny—to the vilest and most illegal op-
pression—borne down by brutal force and humbug
law—by cavalry, artillery, infantry, on the one hand,
and packed juries, lost lists, pistol Attorney-Generals,
and indescribable Chief Justices on the other—we
had totally resigned all hope of even the shadow of
justice falling across our devoted path.
And now that the shadow has fallen—now that
we do indeed at length behold a slender outline of
her form, however distorted—with what indignation
