D IRECT NORTHERN. RAILWAY from
LONDON to YORK, by LINCOLN.—The Committee
have prepared and printed a statement of " The Case and Merits
of the Direct Northern Railway," Copies of which may be ob.
tained by Shareholders and parties interested in the line by per.
sonal application at the Offices of the Company, or by letter, post
paid, addressed to the Secretary.
By order of the Ct. ,rrnittee,

IRELAND.
REPEAL ASSOCIATION.

Dunt.m, DEC. 30.—The weekly meeting of the Asso-
ciation was held this day, at the Conciliation Hall.
The chair was taken by Mr. O'Neill Daunt.
The CHAIRMAN briefly addressed the meeting, con-
fining his observations to the threatened concordat be-
tween his Holiness the Pope and the English Govern-
ment, which he denounced in the most emphatic terms,
and declared his conviction that any rescript, having
reference to such a subject, would be received by the
Irish people as so much waste paper.—(Cheers.)
The SECRETARY, having read the minutes of the last
day's proceedings, and acknowledged the receipt of se-
veral remittances,
Mr. S. O'BRIEN rose and moved the marked thanks
of the Association to Messrs. Mackey and Molloy for
their gratuitous exertions in conducting the recent re-
gistration of the city of Dublin, ar.d likewise to the
Learned Gentleman who attended the registration
throughout the country generally, on the part of the
Association. The Hon. Gentleman then went into some
statistics for the purpose of showing that, at the last re-
gistry sessions the repealers had gained considerably on
their opponents, and urged on the people the neces-
sity of further exertion. It was idle, he said, to ex-
pect that the Legislature would confer on them a better
registration system than that at present existing, and
they ought, therefore, to avail themselves of the means
within their reach towards achieving the regeneration of
their country. At the next election the people of Ire-
land would have to dispose of several seats in Parliament.
The number of Members at present representing repeal
principles was quite inadequate to the state of feeling
which prevailed. He would call on those Members,
who, although they were repealers, yet remained pas-
sive, to come forward and give effective and practical
aid in working that cause of which they were but the
nominal supporters, or they would have to render an
account to their constituents when the proper time
should arrive. They should imitate the generous and
disinterested exertions of Mr. Hutchinson. The alter-
native they had to propose to candidates at the next
election would be—if repealers, a free and gratuitous
return ; if anti-repealers, a strenuous opposition and
all its accompanying expenses. The Hoe. Gentleman
concluded by submitting his mot'on to the meeting.
Mr. GRATTAN, M.P., seconded the motion in a
lengthened address, in the course of which he pronounced
the intrigues at present being carried on between the
Pope and the British Government as a base conspiracy
against the Catholic as well as Protestant, and that the
object of them was to poison the mind of his Holiness,
and create, if possible, an enmity between him and the
people of Ireland.

ir)IRECT NORTHERN RAIL WAY from
LONDON to YORK, by LINCOLN.—The Committee
beg to intimate I. the Shareholders that the several Parliamentary
and Parish Deposits, as well as the Notices to Landowners, Les-
sees, and Occupiers, have been duly completed, and the whole of
the Standing Orders complied with up to the present time, so as to
enable the Committee to proceed to Parliament.
By order of the Committee,
WILLIAM AMSINCK, Secretary.

LONDON, EDINBURGH, and DUBLIN
LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY,

3, Charlotte-row, Mansion.house, London.

THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY who are bound by their
deed of constitution not to dispute any policy, unless they can prove
that it was obtained by friudulent misrepresentation; the great aim
and object having been to render Life Policies COMPLETE SE-
CURITIES and NEGOTIABLE DOCUMENTS.
THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY from whom the assured,
on the mutual principle, receives the whole of the mutual amt.
mulatiens, and also a guarantee from the Shareholders for the sums
assured.

THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY who bind themselves to
pay the sums in the policies, although the dEbts for which they were
effected shall have been liquidated before the claims arise.

The SECRETARY announced the receipt of 40/. from
Melbourne, New South Wales, and read a communica-
tion which accompanied the remittance.
Mr. Smrru O'BRIF.N having given notice that Mr.
O'Hea would, on the next day of meeting, take a review
of the proceedings of the Association for the past year,
announced the rent for the week, 1781. 16s.
The meeting then adjourned.
RIBBONISM IN SLIGO.
The Sligo Champion, after noticing the successful
exertions of Mr. O'Connell and the Repeal Association
to put down ribbonism in that district, laments that
new attempts have been made to revive the pernicious
system, That journal continues—

TIPS IS ALMOST THE ONLY COMPANY who grant in
faVour of creditors whole world policies, whereby the debt is se-
caied,. although the debtor should go beyond the limits of Europe.
BY THE HALF PREMIUM PLAN only one.half of the
first seven years' premium is required, thr other half being pay_
able at the convenience of the assured; thus allowing a Policy to
be continued for seven years at one-half of the usual rate, or to
be,dropped at one-half of the usual sacrifice, and entitling the
assured, seven years hence, when loss of health may prevent him
from affecting a new Assurance, to continue a Policy at a rate of
pr,emium applicable to an age seven years younger.
ALEX. ROBERTSON, Manager.

22. The Dowager Countess of Clarendon, aged $4.
25. Colonel John Frederick Brown, of the 28th Foot.
General H. Bell, in London, of the Honourable
East India Company's service.

" We have been furnished with the pass-words for the
present quarter, and we think it right to publish them ;
first, to show the persons who are connected with the
society that all their secrets are known ; and, secondly,
to deter them from identifying themselves with a system
which must end in their degradation and ruin. The.
following are the signs for the present quarter:—
" Question: The days are on the decline?'
"Answer: So are the enemies of Ireland.'
" Question: Will Ireland get her rights?'
" Answer: She cannot be denied.'

- • - TENDER FOR CLOTHING.
• • ROYAL HOSPITAL, Chelsea, Dec. 80, 1844.
ripllE -Right Honourable the Lords and others
Commissioners for the Affairs of this Hospital do hereby
give notice, that they are ready to receive TENDERS, and to
treat with much persons as may be willing to CONTRACT for
cl.corfjjyG the Invalid Soldiers, &c., belonging to the Hospital,
for two years, viz. :—Whole Mounting for 1845, half ditto for
1846. Those persons, therefore, who may Ise disposed to treat for
the same are desired to apply at the Secretary's Office, any day be-
tween thellours of Eleven and Three o'clock, for further parti-
&lars, where Patterns may be seen and Forms of Tender obtained,
which Tenders must be filled up and delivered sealed at the Board
Room of the said Hospital by the party or parties tendering, or by
anagent appointed on his or their behalf, on WEDNESDAY, the 14th
of Next Month, at One o'clock, at which time their Lordships will be
prepared to'receive and take the same into consideration.

" When two persons connected with the Ribbon So-
ciety dispute, without knowing each other, should a third
person, belonging to the body, be present, he interferes,
and says, ' Don't be unreasonable;' to which the answer
I never was otherwise.' When parties are out at
night, and want to recognise each other, one observes,
The night appears cloudy;' and the reply is,' Yes, the
clouds appear dull.' Now, should this paragraph ever
meet the eve of a ribbonman, we ask him, must he not
be mad to adhere to a system which is so well known?
The Rev. Malachi Brenan, and his colleague, the Rev.
Mr. Noon, are doing all they can to put down ribbonism
in their parish."
