STANDARD.—TweIve years ago• this country abolished
negro slavery—a great act of justice and of mercy, but an
act which involved a vast present Sacrifice; without any
definite prospect of compensation, however distant; but what
has been the effect? 'The first effect, and beyond doubt an
undesigned one, has been to paralyse completely and for ever
the power of our most formidable western rival, to in-
jure the. British empire. The second effect has been to bind
still more closely to the metropolitan state, by the link of
a-profitable trade, the vast -empire•of India. Another effect,
new opening to view, is a like commercial connexion with the
still larger and richer empire of China. This has been the re-
ward of justice to the negro..:..:a reward Of any part of which no
one -dreamed twelve years ago. New, however, we are
called 'upon fur another act -ol•justice, or rather to resist
an act 'of gross injustice. The emancipation of the negrb fell
_heavily upon his owner : the loss was in part compensated,
• but in part only, by a munificent grant of twenty millions;
but the injury was of that kind which 100 millions could not
'repair. The Emancipation Act did not take away merely
the, planter's servant, it took away. his.estate, and all the capi-
tal sunk upon that estate. • Lands cannot be cultivated or
works carried on without labourers, and if von take away the
labourers, you, in effect, take away the lands and the works;.
and less than • the 'fee- simple. of the lands and the
whole price of the works will not compensate the owner.
Such has.been to a:great extent the effect of the Emancipa-
tion Act upon the West India planters. They cannot all
get labourers at • any price, and we have heard and
believe that the few who can get them, are often
compelled:.. to pay at the rate of one shilling per
hour. Now, to • admit the competition of slave
labour with men so • circumstanced • must be in-
stant ruin, and even to admit the competition of free
labour of countries less burthened and more populous would
be almost as unjust, vet this is what has been proposed by
the Anti,Corn- law Leaguers, by Mr. Ewart and Mr. Roe—
buck.; and firmly to resist, the propositions of these persons is
the vindication of justice for which the occasion calls. England
is as much bound to protect the 'West India planters as she
is to protect the natives of Great Britain. It has been
said that the twenty millions was the price of negro emanci-
pationiand that the planters, having had their money, have
no further claim. This is, however, a false view of the trans
action of 1832. That was not a bargain between equals, in
which one could demand and the other pay a price. It
was an arrangement imposed by
a strong party upon
a party unable to resist, but. which was most de-
sirous • to resist ; and . the stronger • party took upon
itself solely to award- the amount of compen-
sation; which therefore can be •in no sense regarded
as a price, binding the weaker to any arrangement. The
compensation has proved wholly inadequate to the injury, and
it'now reverts to those who inflicted the injury to supply the
deficiency. We have no right to arrogate the praise of abolish-
ing slavery, if we are unwilling to pay the last penny of the
cost. It is idle and fallacious to talk-of our twenty millious,
if the cost to the planters has been twice twenty millions
more. We must not, as the phrase is, " ride to heaven upon:
another man's horse.' No round sum of money that 'any one
could dare to name is, in fact, sufficient to compensate the West
India planter. If we are just, we will compensate him by pro-
tecting his industry, the only way in which we can compensate
him. The measure of protection is a qu3stion into which we
are not competent to enter. If excessive, it would but serve to
enhance the extravagant rate of wages in the West Indies, as
there the labourers are masters ; if deficient, it would be a fraud,
for an insufficient protection is in fact no protection. What
nritnecnidplfeoLis we
the principle of real protection, and to apply
maintain,
necessary to justice. Returning
to the point from which we set out, we hold that in this and
every other case, to "be just and fear not" is the true
wisdom. Let us treat the West Indians with justice, and..
we
eis cop
we know from experience that, sooner or later, they.
will repay us tenfold. we do not pretend to conjec-
ture. It may be that the islands will, by a multiplication of
the people from natural increase, or by emigration from the
neighbouring slave states, or by drafts from civilised Africa,
again exhibit an universal cultivation. Our readers are_
aware that we look to the civilisation of the west coast of
Africa as the most promising source of supply, and to
civilise that coast would, like all the works of mercy, be
" twice blessed, blessing him that gives, and him to whom-
it is given."

Dumas, JUNE 9.—A very numerous and highly important
meeting of the Reformers of Belfast was held in the Theatre
of that town, on Friday, " to consider the propriety of adopt-
ing resolutions, and an address to Mr. O'Connell, with refe-
rence to the State trials." James Grimshaw, Esq., presided.
Jam es•CAMPBELL, Esq., proposed the first resolution. He
said—l am no repealer. I did not approve of the monster
meetings, but neither do.I approve of the recent measure of
the Government. I think the Government was wrung in the
whole tenor of its proceedings, from first to last. If the
meeting of Clontarf was illegal, so was that of Mullaghmast,
so was every other which preceded it, and yet no steps were
taken to suppress them. With regard to the Government,
they have began with prosecution, but ended with persecu-
tion.—( Loud applause.) That a man should be incarcerated
while Iris-guilt is yet undecided, and ere the higher tribunal
before which such decision is to take place has sat upon the
question, is, gentleman, a circumstance which should make
us alarmed for our own liberties.—(Cheers.)
J. T. TENSEST, Esq., proposed the next resolution. He
which

from a-very early period of my life, engaged both on record
and Cr ..wn cases, as a juror, and I tell you that had I been
one of Mr. O'Connell's jury I would, assuredly. have de-
clared him innocent of the crime of conspiracy.—(Tremendous
,applause.) In my consci, rice, I do not believe that Mr.
O'Connell, or his associates, ever conspired to do one illegal
act.—( Loud cheers.) The consent of many men to meet and
petition for the repeal of a law which they consider op-
pressive, cannot be construed into conspiracy. There must
be some proof that they laid their heads together to break
the law. Gentlemen, the right by which we are here assem-
bled to-night, is one which, I trust, we are all resolved
never 'to surrender except with our lives..---(Tremendous
applause.) . . .
IL J. TENSEST, Esq., D. L., in proposing an address to
Mr. O'Connell, said—Such an event as has lately happened
calls for the condemnation .not only of every friend of civil
and religious liberty, but of every man, be he Catholic, Pro-
testant; or Presbyterian—be he Repealer, Reformer, or Con-
servative, who vaCttes the constitutional rights and privi-
leges of the subject, or the due administration of the law.
—(Great cheering.) O'Connell and the rest of the tra-
ver,e'rs have not been convicted of a breach of any of the
written or statute lawsof the kingdom—they have not .been
found guilty of violating, I say, any of the written statutes;
and we have met to-night to protest against the danger
which may result from lawyer-made law being turned into
an instiument of oppression or of vindictiveness towards a
political opponent.—(Cheers.) During the space of time my
own 'memory can run Over, I have seen but one short while
during which England manifested any desire to deal fairly
with our country. I allude to the term of the Government of
Lord 3lusgrave.—(Tremendous cheers.) During that period,
there were no 'monster meetings, no monster trials, no mon-
ster agitiition, no strengthening of forts, no loop-holing
barracks. What a contrast to that quiet state does
"our country now present ; her towns crowded with
soldiers, her harbours literally filled with war-steamers,
and her
,coast surrounded by men-of-war !—(Hear.)
I do not wish to create any dissension in this meeting,
when I ask confidently, what Irishman, looking at this
state of things, and obServiag the manner in which his
country is treated—l ask, what Irishman can, for lam sure
I cannot,' feel' wonder that his countrymen shoukl demand
the management of their own affairs?
The Right Rev. Dr. DENvin next addressed the meeting,
which broke up, giving hearty cheers for the Queen and
O'Connell.

_
A meeting of the law clerks was held this day in the
Adelphi Theatre, Mr. O'Connor in the chair, when an address
to Mr. O'Connell was adopted. Nearly one hundred pounds
repeal rent was subscribed on the spot. Similar meetings
were held this day in Rathmines, Catherine's Parish, and the
Post•office Ward.

MORE TROOPS FOR IRELAND.—The Cork Reporter of yes-
terday says, " Her Majesty's steamer Dee, Commander
Driver, sailed this morning from Cove for Chatham, to em-
bark troops for conveyance to this country ."
TILE LATE MEETING IN WATERFORD—PIIE POLICE.—The
Water ford Chronicle says :—" We are given to understand
that ;the chief of the police applied to the secretary, T. F.
Meagher, jun., Esq., for a copy of the resolutions which were
passed at the meeting on Wednesday last to sympathise with
Mr. O'Connell. An application was also made fora copy of
the address—that is, before it had legal existence or was pro-
sented•to the Liberator—Quern .Deus vult,&c." •

GAMBOLS OF A I3AnooN.—On Sunday morning a
large-sized baboon,
.which had been sent as a present from a
gentleman at the Cape to a friend of his, and which had been
brought from on board ship but a few hours betbre, managed
to slip his chain, and sallying from the house No. 12, Duke-
street, soon made his way to the roof of the houses in New
Martin- street. On gaining this eminence Master Jacko
commenced amusing himself by stripping the tiles off, and
flinging them at the crowd in the street, His pursuers got
