It is now some weeks since, in his manifesto, dated
from Derrynane, Mr. O'CONNELL announced his pre-
ference of Federalism to simple Repeal, and yet, up
to the present moment, not one single individual has
come forward to tell us what Federalism really is—
what are its character and tendencies, and what the
chief objects which it proposes to itself! Vague,
wordy intimations, indeed, have transpired from time
to time, from which we gather that it is something
like a grand jury legislature; but beyond this, nothing
positive—nothing definite seems to be known about it,
and even the great legislator himself is forced to
confess that, to a considerable extent, he is in
the dark on the subject. It is curious to find so
wary and experienced a politician as Mr.
O'CONNELL thus committing himself to the advocacy
of a project, of whose exact merits he is, comparatively ,
speaking, uninformed ; and not less curious to find
others vehemently opposing it who are in an equal
state of ignorance. That Federalism is a proposal for
the institution of a limited, emasculated Irish Parlia-
ment, which is to work after a peculiar fashion of its
own, appears to be the utmost amount of knowledge that
any one possesses of it ; and yet agitation on the sub-
ject of this mystery and marvel has been carried on
quite as fiercely as if it were a well understood, well-
-4.lefined scheme, about which—as in the case of Repeal
—there could not be the slightest shadow of a doubt.
'At the present moment the more active and stirring
spirits of Ireland are divided into two parties—Fede-
ralists and Anti-Federalists, the former of whom are at
a loss to say why they are Federalists, and the latter
are equally at a loss to say why they are not so !
rhe Belfast Vindicator seems to be in this last pre-
licament, and after. condemning in no measured
terms the Federal scheme, is at length forced to con-
fess the awkWard fact, that it knows nothing at all
about the matter. " Where are the Federalists ?"
asks our Irish Contemporary. " Again we say, where
are they ? During all the storms of our monster
meetings, the cry was still, they come—the Fede-
ralists are on us ! We were reproached for our vio-
lence. Our songs were rank treason, and our prose
was lurking sedition. Can you not be prudent, it
was said to us, and the Federal junction will take
place. Where is the Federal junction ? A
great party, insinuated another wiseacre, a great
party is somewhere or other being formed, and Mr.
SHARMAN CRAWFORD, and Lord CIIARLEMONT, and,
may be, the Duke of LEINSTER, and hundreds of
others of antique lineage and great personal cha-
racter, will break upon delighted Ireland, and astonish
England with a proposition. Where are they?
Where is the proposition ? Again and again we ask,
Where is. Federalism ? Many ingenious and pleasant
men are daily employed in endeavouring to tell us
what it is, and by their varied accounts nothing can
be mote different from itself at times—more strange,
,nord hovel, more changing, than this same bashful
Federatipm." Its bashfulness is, we suppose,
Its great recommendation with Irishmen, whose
excessive., diffidence is proverbial, for other-
wise it -iss impossible to understand why they
,hould agitate, either for or against it, seeing
that, as 'yet, it has no substantial, settled
existe9c,e,-and, in fact, is a mere chimera of Mr. GREY
PoliE#'s brain, to be shaped, and moulded, and fully
,levelop4r some day or other—but when, no one
exactly knows. Tom THUMB, as we are assured by
FiE2irrh6,' " made the giants first, and then he killed
thenv;'''' 104 the Irish Anti-Federalists are more in-
genfiip for they—with the Editor of the .Nation
tkeir.t!ead—are busily engaged in endeavouring to
kill 'a Olinttwho is not yet manufactured ! We-have
no ob4ion, however, to all this extraordinary
hubbuffrabtut a non-existent crotchet. It serves to
divert the mind of Ireland from the more serious
agitation of Repeal, and, so far, is productive
of good. Meanwhile, we await with some
confidence, not unnaingled with anxiety, the
announcement of the remedial measures which, it
is presumed, Sir ROBERT PEEL is now actively en-
gaged in concocting for the welfare of the sister

country. If these be such, as, from the Premier's
intimation towards the close of the last session, we
have a right to hope that they will be, we shall hear
little more either of Repeal or Federalism, both of
which will have received their death-blow; but if
.hey be not—if they be merely tame, imperfect,
wishy-washy remedies, then we think it far from
unlikely that a combination will be formed among all
parties in Ireland—with the exception, perhaps, of
the Orangemen of the old school—for the purpose of
agitating in a determined, energetic spirit, the
ticklish question of the restoration of the Irish Par-
liament.

Madrid journals of the 4th have been received. On
that day the trial of Geneal PRIM commenced, before
a court-martial composed of seven general officers,
with General MAZZAREDO, the Captain-General of
Madrid, as President.' The defence on the part of
Pnim was read by General SHELLY, from a manu-
script drawn up by the two counsel. General SHELLY
protested against the competence of the tribunal, but
he protested in vain. The defence of the other pri-
soners were read, or rather attempted to be read, by
officers of the Court, for it appears that one of them

• power, as regards the physicians and the surgeons
. who are to be members of the "Council of Health
and Medical Education" under the enactments of the
Bill ;—of such a palpable creation of patronage to
the Government both in the original constitution of
such council, and of such a monopoly of the direc-
tion of professional education, honours, and advan-
ktages, under the new registration to be organised, in
favour of the future " Associates" of the College of
''Physicians, and " Fellows" of the College of Sur-
geons, against all other members of such colleges,
and still more invidiously and especially against the
most extensive branch of all, the general practi-
tioners, who combine the practice of surgery with
the prescription and preparation of medicine, and
'whose qualifications and character have been so bene-
ficially raised and established through the invaluable
exertions of the Society of Apothecaries and their
admirable Court of Examiners, in their administra-
tion of the powers and duties vested in them by the
Act of 1815—that we shall feel it our duty to give
an early analysis of the paper and to remark upon
the conclusions it establishes, seriatim. It would be
difficult to find a body of men who have more emi-
nently served the public, or in whose welfare the
..public ought to feel more profoundly interested, than
the " General Practitioners." But in all our experi-
ence we have never met with, or heard, of any class
of a profession upon whom it has been proposed to
deal out so large a measure of virtual discredit and
disqualification—not only without a pretence of rea-
son alleged, but against the express admissions of the
framers of the Bill themselves. The epigram of the
Bill seems to be this. " Protect Associate Physicians
and Fellows of the College of Surgeons for the sake
of those wealthier people who employ them. Dis-
courage the General Practitioners in Surgery and
Medicine, by withdrawing all practice from them ;
because it would have to refuse to the poorer classes,
among whom this practice at present lies, the privi-
lege of employing quack doctors, or any other un-
qualified person, if they choose to employ them:'
We don't find at the end of the Bill, what there
ought to be, a "sliding scale" of penalties to be
levied on those who may choose to call in empirics
and ignorant and unqualified persons—(those, for ex-
ample, who would propagate the small-pox by inocu-
lation)—the richer sort, who ought to know better,
and can afford to do so, to be amerced in the
heavier sums ; the poorer sort, who either may not
know better, or may be unable to afford to act as if
they did, in the smaller. The " Address" cleverly
demonstrates that the Bill is a premium on their igno-
rance and temerity, who, being relieved from the
present legal penalties of such attempts, may here-
after " practice"—on her MAJESTY'S su-Erdats, without
being qualified by education or experience for such
duties ; and a gross insult and a civil wrong on that
large community of general practitioners, to whom
the public health is so largely indebted for its im-
proved and improving condition. Let us add, that to
the general practitioners—not to the physicians, as
such, whose range of practice is notoriously and ne-
cessarily limited by the usage of the profession and
by public opinion—are due those sanatory ameliora-
tions which the reports of the Registrar-General are
so remarkably developing in their valuable statistics
of life and mortality in the United Kingdom.
