IRELAND.
REPEAL ASSOCIATION.
DLBr.Nr, JULY 23.—Towards the close of the proceedings
at the Conciliation-hall yesterday,
Di r. DANIEL
bulletinO from C
said be had to give his
(Cheers.) The health and
usual
spirits of the prisoners are excellent, and in no way im-
paired bv the imprisonment.—(Loud cheers.) He (Mr.
'ozE prison.
Daniel O'Connell) said last week. that on that day he would
general, and
His father felt great delight
l, and he made a memorandum,
em
have an opportunity of letting them know the opinions of his
fatherwhich onhe
shouldthings in
eadg
at the continued tranquillity of the country, and the few
offences to be tried at the present assizes. There were
scarcely any of recent date ; and never was such universal
r
obedience to the law I nown in Ireland. The perseverance
in the repeal agitation is also delightful. The present is a
contest between the prosecuting Ministry, headed by the
Irish Attorney-General, and the repeal martyrs, made
prominent in the great repeal cause for which they
are suffering. The object of the prosecution was to
stifle that cause, and put an end to the agitation, or at
least to damp its ardour and diminish its strength.—
(Hear.) The question is between the prosecutors and the
Irish people—shall the prosecutors succeed ? That is the
question. If there be the least relaxation in the peaceful
agitation, that will be success to the prosecution; if, on the
other hand, there shall be no relaxation, no diminution of
the repeal agitation, then the people will succeed.—(Hear,
hear, and loud cheers.) But the people will be doubly suc-
cessful, if, as hitherto, the peaceful agitation augments. The
English Ministry can never hold out against a peaceable—a
crimeless and persevering agitation. There never was a time
when the Irish people had it so completely in their power to
secure the legislative independence of their native land. The
repeal of the union is certain, if we desire it, by peaceable and
determined perseverance. In persevering for the repeal of
the union it is utterly unnecessary, and it may have a bad
effect, to hold anything that could be called a monster meet-
ing. There is no objection, and it may be desirable, to hold
public parish meetings, or district meetings of several parishes,
or county meetings, to sympathise with the repeal martrys
—to organise strictly and universally the repeal rent—to dis-
countenance every species of violence, and to prepare peti-
tions to be presented the next session of Parliament, praying
a repeal of the union. It would also be useful, at such meet-
ings, to organise registry clubs for the registration of votes
in the repeal interest in towns and counties. It it is most
important to have every repeal voter duly registered, and at
as little expense as possible.—(Cries of Hear, hear.") It
may be remarked, that it does not seem advisable to hold
any large meeting at Tara-hill—the Tara-hill meeting oflast
year stands so prominent in Irish history that it cannot pos-
sibly be imitated at present, and ought not to be lessened in
its effect by any smaller meeting on the same locality. The
people everywhere should be reminded of the crimes by which
the union was achieved, and the evil consequences which
followed. It is beyond controversy, and therefore universally
admitted, that the union was achieved by the grossest fraud
and profligate corruption—by the most atrocious intimida-
tion, and by the entire suspension of constitutional protection,
and under the auspices of martial law. The evils of the
union should be pointed out in detail to every Irish youth as
he approaches to manhood. The fiscal robbery—the restrict-
ing and perishing franchise—the limited corporate reform—
the state of the magistracy, and the burden of a sinecure
Church. Perseverance, then, should be called for to all Irish-
men. Peace and perseverance—peace is certain—perseve-
rance a first duty, and, therefore, not to be doubted. Peace
and perseverance—and hurrah for the repeal.—(Cheers. )
At the close of the proceedings the repeal rent for the week
was announced to be 1,5581.
