IRELAND. •
REPEAL ASSOCIATION.
Dunt,tx, FEB. 12.—At one o'clock the chair was taker! by
John A. O'Neill, Esq. Mr. M. O'Connell introduced to the
meeting, which was crowded to suffocation, the new Member
for Tipperary, Mr. Nicholas -Maher.
Mr. O'NEILL said, as he came forward to preside at the first
meeting held after the arrest of Mr. O'Connell, he conceived
he was bound now to take the chair at the first meeting after
the verdict. An occurrence had just taken place which had at-
tracted the notice of the civilised world. The only man in
the world who possessed the confidence of seven millions of
people was about to be removed from them for a short time.
A blow had been struck at them in his person, and an at-
tempt was made to invade the liberty of the press—the
great palladium of public liberty—an engine which they
valued next to their personal lifferty.—(Dear, and cheers.)
He did not impugn the verdict which had been given—this
was not the place for doing so; but elsewhere it would be
the subject of discussion. This he believed—that had the
trial taken place in England there would have been an ac-
quittal. It had been said that the Government would put
down the Association by a proclamation. lie would tell her
Majesty's Government very calmly, •but not less determin-
edly, that if they did, patriotism, would assume so many
Protean shapes, that no Administration could put down the
struggle for national independence.
Shortly before two o'clock Mr. O'Connell entered the hall,
and was received with peals of applause.
Mr. O'CoNNELt.—One word for Ireland. Everybody
knows that Lord John Russell has given notice of a motion
for to-morrow in reference to the , affairs of Ireland. I do
not think much of any battle which may take place between
parties 'in London upon the subject. The present Parlia-
ment is packed against Ireland, and it is not my intention to
go over to the debate, lest I should hold out the expectation
that the present Parliament would do anything for Ireland.
But still I would wish to give every reasonable assistance to
Lord John Russell's motion. Therefore, I will move that
two of the gentlemen who acted as counsel for the tra-
versers (Sir Col Man O'Loghlin and Mr. O'llea) be nomi-
nated to proceed to London this night to render asssistance
to Lord John Russell. They are full masters of all the de-
tails of the case, and may be useful in affOrding information
to Lord John Russell. 'I
therefore move that the standing
order be suspended, to enable me to move that the Associa-
tion should request Sir C. O'Loghlin and Mr. O'nea to pro
ceed to London to-night.
The motion was put and passed.
Mr. W. S. O'BRIEN, M.P.—I rise to propose -a motion for
calling upon Mr. O'Connell to allow the Association to print
his address in defence of the people, as delivered by him in
the Coukt of Queen's Bench. It was an admirable oration ;
and was not less so, because it was altogether free from
meretricious ornament. The Judges of England, he con-
sidered, had always been looked upon as counsel for the ac-
cused; but on that occasion the Chief Justice had not only
departed from that rule, but had actually volunteered him-
self as counsel against them, and forgot himself so far as to
allude to the counsel for the traversers, as the gentlemen on
the other side.—(Cheers.) Ile felt that they were bound to
bring these things under the consideration of Parliament and
her Majesty.
Mr. N. MATIEn, M. P., said lie had great pleasure in .se-
conding the motion of Mr. O'Brien. There was nothing he
so much delighted in as exposing a public delinquent.
The motion having been put from the chair and carried,
Mr. O'CONNELL said that of course he would comply with
the request, although that the speech he made was said to
have been a failure ; but anything- he could have said would
have been a failure when compared with the splendid address
of his friend, Mr. Sheil, and the transcendantly talented
speech of that able counsel, Mr. WhiteAde.' He (Mr. O'Cou-
nell) did not therefore attempt to use any eloquence in his
speech—there was no gilding upon his gingerbread. lie had
extorted religious equality, and trampled under foot Orange
ascendancy—(Here a scene of yelling-ensued that it would
be impossible to describe.) If he were confined in a dungeon
—(Cries of " No, no," and great confusion)—he meant to
say, that in case such an event occurred, was it not a subject
of. congratulation . that they wouid find another leader in
Smith O'Brien ?

Mr. O'CONNELL read a letter from Dr. Gi ay, in which that
gentleman tendered his resignation as a member of the As-
sociation, because lie felt that the present were times when
proprietors of public journals ought not to be identified with
an Association like this. Mr. O'Connell regretted that Dr.
Gray was obliged to adopt the course lie had done. He would
always consider him as one of his dearest friends, and an un-
flinching advocate of the people's right's.
Mr. W. S. O'BRIEN wished it to be distinctly understood
that they received Dr. Gray's resignation under protest.
The week's rent was then announced to be 6431., and the
meeting separated.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
COURT-MARTIAL ON LIEUTENANT DIKE.

A Court-martial, composed of Rear-Admiral Superinten-
dent Hyde Parker, C. 8., President; Captain W. Henderson,
C. 8., of the Victory; Captain Sir J. Hastings, Knight, of
the Excellent; Captain R. F. Rowley, of the St. Vincent;
and Commander Wilcox, of the Ordinary ; with Mr. W.
Greatham, Judge Advocate, assembled on Monday morning
on board the Vincent, 120 flag-ship, to try Lieut. Peelle
Hart Dyke, late senior Lieutenant of the Iris, 26, on charges
exhibited against him by Captain W. Lee, late acting
Commandant of the Island of Ascension. -

First Charge.—For having, on or about the 20th of July,
1842, the Iris being then at anchor off the Island of Ascen-
sion, falsely and maliciously asserted on board the Iris, that
he (Captain W. Lee) had destroyed or made away with cer-
tain public letters and documents from the late Captain Ben-
nett, Commandant of the Island of Ascension, addressed to
the Admiralty, and to the late Captai❑ Tucker, senior naval
.officer on the African station, he (the said Captain W. Lee)
being at the time acting Commandant of that island.

Second Charge.--Forhaving, on or about the 26th day of
July, 1842, falsely and maliciously stated, in the gun-room
of the Iris, that he (Captain Lee) had told a deliberate lie ;
and that he (Captain Lee) had broken open a desk, and taken
therefrom articles which did not belong to him ; such state-
ments and assertions tending to injure his (Captain Lee's)
character as au officer and a gentleman.
A number of witnesses were examined for the prosecution,
among them a young lady who had sent out the desk in ques-
tion from England, and who under very trying circumstances,
although very young, gave her evidence in a most correct,
becoming, and lady-like manner.
The prisoner, who was assisted by Messrs. Minchin and
Oake, solicitors, made a most able defence, and called a
number of witnesses to disprove the evidence for the prosecu-
tion. A number of certificates from officers under whom the
prisoner had served were handed in,- and were read to the

Court.; and Captains Sir W. Grant, Sir .J. Hastings, and R.
F. Rowley, Dr. Irvine, and several others, were called on,
who gave-Lieutenant Dyke a high private and public profes-
sional character.
The Court having maturely weighed the evidence for and
against the prisoner, found him in part guilty of the first
charge, and sentenced him to be admonished to be more care-
ful in his language in future.
The Court acquitted the prisoner on the second charge.
The proceedings of the Court did not'terminate till nearly
eight o'clock, rm.

ACCIDENT AT THE DUKE OF BEAUFORT'S STABLES.
—Yesterday afternoon Thomas Enwright, a groom in the
service of the Duke of Beaufort,' was kicked in a shocking
manner by a horse belonging to his Grace, at his stables,
Apple-tree-yard, York-street, St. James's-square. -It appears
that Enwright was about to remove the horse from his stall,
and on arriving near him he called to bins in the usual way,
when the animal suddenly kicked out and struck the unfor-
tunate man in the face, hurling him with fearful violence
against the wall of the stable opposite. On proceeding to his
assistance scarcely a feature of his face was discernible, the
nose being c3mpletely flattened, one eye forced from its
socket, and a long and deep wound, so as to admit therein
two fingers, across the top of his nose and under the fore-
head. A medical gentleman was called in, who, however,
directed his immediate removal to. St. George's Hospital,
where he was attended by Mr. Keate, one of the house sur-
geons, and Serjeant-Surgeon to her Majesty, and his assis-
tants ; and, notwithstanding the injuries the patient has
received, some slight hopes are given alas ultimate recovery.
THE IVEATHER.—T. AILS.—On Monday night
a thick fog prevailed throughout the metropolis and neigh-
bourhood, which rendered travelling both difficult and dan-
gerous. On the Thames navigation was almost wholly sus-
pended, the vessels which did leave the docks and wharfs
being obliged to bring up soon afterwards in the Pool and
other parts of the river. The fog continued with little altera-
tion till about eleven o'clock-yesterday forenoon, when it
partially cleared away,but not to such an extent as to permit
the sun to give forth its cheering rays. Throughout.the
night and the whole of yesterday a hard frost prevailed, the
thermometer at noon, at. the entrance of the superintendent's
office in the London socks, having stood at 29 degrees, or 3
below the•freezine. point. The Serpentine as well as the other
waters in the Parks, and ponds in the vicinity of the metro-
polis, were all coated over with ice, and should the present
intense frost continue a day or two longer the wishes of
skaters and curlers will be gratified. Several steam-packets
due yesterday morning bad not arrived last evening. The
northern mails continue to arrive much beyond their fixed
time .of arrival, and some of them are more Ulan a day
overdue. _

A CRACK SHOT.—Mr. Bennett, a young gentle-
man, a few days ago, on Plumstead Common, Kent, under-
took, for a wager, to hit 140 penny pieces with a pistol, thrown
up by another individual; which feat, to the astonishment
of a number of sporting characters present, he accomplished,
without missing a single piece; but with the ball from the
piece doubling the pennies up.
THE EARL OF CARLISLE.—Last evening further
intelligence was received in town from Castle I-reward, re-
specting the illness of the above respected Nobleman. It is
said that the Earl, both on Sunday and Monday nights, en-
joyed sonic refreshing sleep, and appeared to have slightly
improved, but to a very trifling degree. There is great uncer-
tainty as to the result of his Lordship's attack, and should no
relapse assail the noble sufferer, he may possibly regain his
strength, and eventually be restored to health. The Duke
and Duchess of Sutherland, Lady Dover, Hon. Captain and
Mrs. Howard, Viscount Morpeth, Hen. E. Howard, and
other immediate members of the Earl's family, are staying at
Castle Howard until his Lordship is considered out of danger
by his physicians.
THE WEATHER.—During the week, though there
has been no decided thaw, there have been repeated indica-
tions of it, and the snow has, consequently, in a great
mea-
sure, disappeared, the streets become dry, and the atnos.
•
phere has been clear and enlivening. Yesterday morning,

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.

FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.

GLOBE.—The aid which the Lord Chief Justice of Ireland
has contributed to the result of the State Prosecution, is
strangely overlooked by the Tory press. We did not, of
course, expect much in the way of commendation. Praise
would have provoked an examivation of its several part,
and a comparison with the charges of some of the English
Judges, on trials of a similar description to that by which
Mr. Chief Justice Pennefather has obtained present
distinction and future fame, would have tended
greatly to its disparagement. But we did not
anticipate that the party organs which are chuckling over the
verdict would, in the same breath, pronounce the strongest
censure which any arrangement of words could express on such
a composition. Yet such :is the fact ! Of the charge of the
Chief Justice, the Times—in the very sentence in which
satisfaction, rising into exultation, that " the verdict is gained,"
is expressed—finds itself compelled to pay homage to truth
and fair play, by admitting, with " regret," that " the elabo-
rate exposition of the Chief Justice, sound as it may have
been, savoured too much of the advocate." The Standard
also—yes, the Standard—rewards the " advocate" of the
Bench with a doubtful compliment. The fact is, that the
Chief Justice —in his anxiety to leave nothing unsaid which
could contribute to the common purpose of those who coun-
selled and those who conducted the prosecution—said too
much. The stern impartiality of the Judge became merged
in the zeal of the partisan. The scales of justice were held
by a functionary who, instead of concerning himself to
preserve the equilibrium of the balance, took care, by his
mode of twitting it, that the advantage should be given to the
accusers. To use the language of the Times, his charge to
the jury was the speech of an advocate, going every
length for a conviction ; not a careful exposition of
the law, and an impartial application of its enact-
ments to the case which the jury were imponelled
to decide upon as between the Crown and the traversers.
We are not about to follow the Learned Chief Justice
through the flounderings of his speech, which, in the judg-
ment of the Standard, perplexed, rather than assisted,
the minds of the jury in arriving at a decision. His
Lordship was thus (in the opinion •f that journal)
instrumental in obtaining for them the undesirable ex-
tension of their deliberations, and the consequent de-
tention from their families, until Monday, instead of
returning to their homes, as they hoped to have done, on
Saturday night. Our purpose is, rather, to cull some of the
more elniice specimens of judicial impartiality and decorum
frtf,m that extraordinary speech. From these an opinion
rely be formed of the whole composition. Added
to the proofs already furnished during the progress
of a State Prosecution in Ireland in the middle
of the nineteeth century, they will excite wonder
in many—perhaps some may weep. Alluding to the ad-
dresses of some of the counsel for the traversers, the Chief Jus-
tice remarke:l, at the commencement of his address to the jury,
that, " they (the jury) had heard a great deal of assertion and
declamation." On a part of Mr. O'Connell's speech, delivered
in his own defence, the comment was, that "he (O'Connell)
had lavished some personal abuse upon Lord Beaumont." Of
Mr. Tierney (another of the traversers), the Judge remarked,
that " he had had a little pet meeting of his own ;" while of
some repeal meeting spoken of by one of the witnesses, the witti-
cism was applied, " he (the judge, in his summing up) sit posed
it was a Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge." This
raised a laugh throughout the Court ; and, being a laugh at his
own joke, the Chief Justice did not interfere to suppress it.
(If the temper which the Chief Justice brought to the
undertaking of summing up the evidence, an instance
is afforded by the conduct for which he deemed in
necessary, on the Saturday morning, to apologize to
the Learned Counsel (Mr. Fitzgibbon) he had on the pre
vious day most improperly assailed. One great defect is per-
cept ible in this address to the jury, which must forcibly strike
the mind of every one who reads it—the length to which the
remarks by which the criminatory evidence was enforced, while
the extenuatory and explanatory portions of the evidence were
eit!ter wholly omitted, or slurred over as unworthy of consi-
deration !

STANDARD.—Sir Charles Napier and his gallant army
are to be envied. They last night received the uuanimous
thanks of the House of Lords, and the all but unanimous thanks
of the llou eof Commons, for the conquest of Sinde. This is
a tribute, happily foe our country, often before claimed
upon just grounds by British generals and British troops,
but we doubt whether it was ever more justly
merited, and we are sure that the honour was never
so highly enhanced by the manner in which it was conferred.
In the house of Lords the ex-Governor-General of India ; in the
House of Commons the leader of the opposition seconded the
motion, but this is not all—laudari a titular() is the nobles'.
ob;ect of ambition—but how can the prodigal commendation
of.the greatest of s3ldiers be appreciated? The speech of the
Premier in proposing the vote of thanks in the House of Com-
mons, wanted indeed that weiglst of high military authority,
which no speeeth but the Duke of Wellington's could possess, but
it was a noble panegyric worthy of its object, and of the speaker.
Providence places the administration of the affairs of such
a country in the hands of statesmen who, when the
public interests are concerned, regard nothing but
the ability to serve and the merit of the honour-
ed instruments whom they employ, and who fling
from them with disdain all lesser considerations, when the
great consideration of the public good is in question. The
Napier family are Whigs, or something more, but this circum-
stance avails nothing with S.r R. Peel when the public service
calls for the exercise of genius and valour—or when the
able and gallant public servant is to be rewarded by the gra-
titude of his Sovereign and fellow-subjects. It is not a Govern-
ment like Sir Robert Peel's that would supersede Beresford by
Whitelecke. A feeble opposition to the vote of thanks was
raised by Lord Howick, supported by the precedent of " the
untoward battle of Navarino ;" but there is no analogy what-
ever between the cases. The mildest explanation of the battle
of Navarino ascribes it to an accident, but an accident which
due care would have obviated, and which, even when it
eccurred, ought not to have led to a battle, which, how-
ever it might terminate, must prove detrimental to the
honour, or to the best interests of England. The gallantry of
our sailors saved us from the disgrace of defeat ; but in other
respects English honour was deeply wounded, by the attack upon
our ally ; and English interests were fatally compromised
in the destruction of the Turkish navy. In the case of
Stride there was no accident, the war was forced on by the
treachery of our enemy, and the result was equally glorious and
beneficial. As to the rule, that thanks are not due except
upon a declared war, it would preclude a nation from an ex
pression of gratitude to those who might protect it from the
most terrible of dangers—an explosion of unsuspected ar.d un-
provoked treachery.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Curren, of Feb. 13 )
SVGA E.-There has been a lively demand for British Plan •
tation Sugar for grocery and refining purposes ; prices have
further advanced for all descriptions, and rule is 6d to 2s above
those of this day week for brown, grey and common yellow
kinds, and 6d to Is per ewt for bright yellow qualities. To-day
there was a strong desire shown on the part of all parties to
purchase West India Sugar, but buying was checked by the

geed, 400 hhds and trcs finding buyers at prices equal to those
of Friday, and in some eases rather above.
