of his most Noble father," was called to the chair, on the
motion of one of the many political parsons, who, to the
disgrace of the cloth, were present, and actively busied
on this occasion ; and—as if no cireinnstance of irrit
lion and national offensiveness should be wanting to the
effect of the clearly illegal processions which had
marched to the rendezvous with Orange colours flying,
Orange emblems displayed, Orange bands, and all the
insignia of Orange Association—it " came off" on the
11th instant, the anniversary of the battle of Aughrim,
so fatal to the Irish arms, under St. RUTH, in 1691, and
still regarded by the Irish people of that district as a
day of traditionary mourning. After an interval of less
than ten years, so little is the regard paid to the solemnl y-
rc corded and often vaunted self-dissolution of the Orange
faction and discontinuance of their processions, that at
this very gathering it was publicly announced that the
most vigorous measures are being taken for the re-estab-
lishment of the one, and the periodical renewals of the
other. So that we have but " scotch'd the snake, not
kill'd it." How deeply are such manifestations of unex-
tinguished party virulence to be deplored by all who
have really at heart the welfare of Ireland. And how
instructive, though fearful, a commentary do they subpply
on the inevitable results of the " Monster Meetings"
and reckless agitations of the ultra-advocates of Repeal.
That result is—in a word—reaction ; and of that reac-
tion, the unhappy victim is—the noble country herself,
the fiercest passions of whose excitable people are thus
appealed to, with equal vehemence, by parties the most
diametrically opposed, the one to the other, in their
political opinions, objects, and declarations. We are
tempted to despair, almost, of the pacification of Ireland
when we see how readily these latent embers of com-
bustion, which we hoped the foot of legislation had
some years since crushed into extinction, can be again
kindled by the hot breath of reckless partizanship.
At the same time we are compelled to acknowledge that
it would have been, perhaps, to expect more of
human nature—as it exists in ordinary temperaments at
least—than human nature is gifted with, tc look fur a
perfect abstinence from obtrusive display in one of the
two gent sections into which the Irish community is
divided, under the species of perpetual challenge and de-
fiance which are habitually addressed to it by the over-
boiling zeal and intemperate: enthusiasm of the other.
Why cannot the Irish people seriously emulate the ex-
ample which has, from time to time, been set them by
almost every established nation that exists, of merging
party or factious objects in an efficient, not a lip-na-
tionality—in a genuine, not a declamatory, vindication
of the equal rights, neither of particular families, nor
creeds, nor alliances, nor associations, but of the whole
Irish people ? On this side the Channel, no advocate of
those rights has looked on at the progress of political
agitation on the other with a more sincere desire than
ourselves that such agitation might speedily determine
in the establishment of that full, fair, and true equality
for Ireland which is enjoyed by the other members of
the Imperial Union ; nor has taken greater pains to en •
force upon public attention and acquiescence the indefea-
sible character of her claim to that equality. But we must
fairly own that we have seen much in the movement and
the political manifestos of our Irish friends, little calcu-
lated to conciliate support or sympathy among their
compatriots here; much that has been emphatically ex•
pressed in a tone, if it was not conceived in a spirit, of
insult to the feelings and the prepossessions of the
people of England ; and still more that has been said
and done with the worst possible air of intended menace
and intimidation in addressing those upon whom the
arts of intimidation, or menace were in every respect
certain to fail. That which we have long been painfully,
anticipating has now actually occurred. The evil spirit
of politico-religious faction is abroad again ; and the
responsibility of having invoked this display of it will
prove far greater, we apprehend, than they imagine who
have incurred it. We can find but one excuse for the
part assumed by Lord GEORGE LOFTUS on taking the
chair at this " demonstration;" and that occurs in the
Let announced by himself from the chair—namely,
" that he is a rely young Ten." As for the reverend
exhibitors on the occasion, they ought to have known
better, but we suppose they are incorrigible. If we are
to have the High Protestant and the High Roman
Catholic factions again throwing the firebrands of civil
and religious discord at one another whenever they
encounter in Ireland (as where do they not ?);—if we
are to have processions with one set of colours and cog-
nizances marshalled against others with other distinctive
emblems ; and arrays of physical force paraded with all
the " pomp and circumstance" of organization, in po-
pulous districts of the country, on fair clays or saints'
days, a.collision of parties must ensue, the horror or the
event of which no man can foresee. All that has been
done towards the holy work of conciliation will speedily
be obscured, eradicated, and forgotten ; and the vessel
of the Irish State will be fast drifting upon that lee-
share of political convulsion and social disorganization
which she has hitherto so often approached but so often
weathered. 'Were Ireland herself bodily launched by
some tremendous effort of nature into the centre of the
Atlantic Ocean, she would not be farther removed from
her present geographical position than the revival of the
fatal Orange faction in all its development, together with
its inevitable coecemitant, the revival of the immense
antagonistic forces opposed to it, would remove her poli-
tical and moral destiny from the track in which itscourse
hould be steadily shaped, in order to arrive at the gcal
of her true welfare and her permanent prosperity.
We cannot close this article, without expressing our
regret at the uncivil and ungenerous treatment to which
Mr. THODIA S STEELE appears to have been exposed in
the town of Enniskillen. The temper and moderation
with which he behaved, under circumstances that would
have been irritating to any gentleman, but might have
been expected to be especially annoying to an individual
in his position, exhibited a combination of becoming
spirit and dignified forbearance which leading advocates
of all opinions and parties in Ireland might imitate with
advantage.

Accounts have been received at St. Petersburgh which
state that there had been a heavy fall of snow in the
Caucasus between the 18th and 25th of June. It is
added that the movements of the Russian troops had not
been discontinued.

The Wurzburgh Gazette states that Queen VICTORIA,
on her return from Coburg, will pass a night at Bamberg
t:nd Wurzburgh, and that it is probable the King of
BAvant.t. will have an interview with her MAJESTY.
Letters from Vienna declare that the States of
Bunetnia have obtained an extension of their reprcsenta-
ti‘es of the burgess class, fuurteen towns having been
granted the privilege of sending representatives to the
l)iet.

Madrid papers t 3 the 9th have been received. Ac
cording to an official bulletin just received from St. Se
babtian, the QUEEN was to quit that place on the 16th
for Mondragon, where she was to take the Santa-Agueda
waters, and remain till the 25th of August. Her MA-
JESTY was then to proceed to Bilbao, and thence to
Pampeluna, whither the Duke and Duchess DE NEMOURS
were expected to arrive on the 4th of September, or
thereabouts. Troops had left Madrid on the 6th for the
northern provinces.
The decree for the convocation of the Cortes is to ap-
rear in the Gaccta towards the end of the month. The
Carlists in the Basque provinces are in high spirits,
as a general belief exists there that everything is
arranged for the marriage of the Queen and the Count
of MONTEMOLIN. Some of them even go so far as to
asst rt that it will take place at Pampeluna during a
visit of the Due DE NEMOURS. We are not, however,
inclined to attach much credit to these rumours. The
Basques are in great trepidation as to the fate of their
fueros—the Political Chief having of his own proper
authority installed the prefecture, an act which is a
complete violation of the.fueros. A strung protest has
been drawn up against this act and transmitted to the
Government. General RONCALI is spoken of as the pro-
bable successor of General CONCHA in Catalonia.
It would appear as if at length it was intended that
something should be done for the unfortunate bond-
holders. The Hcruldo says—
" The direction of the Treasury has been ordered to pay
something to the active and passive classes of the State
creditors. Such events take place so very seldom, that we
loudly announce this one, to console and encourage the parties
interested, or in order that the rest of the nation may celebrate
such a phenomenon. To effect this payment the Minister of
Finances has been compelled to apply to the San Fernando
Bank, and to entreat it to advance 14,000,000 reels on the
c, nsignation of September."
The Funds were rather firmer to-day. Three per
Cents. rose I for time ; they closed at 30i cash, and
31 at 60 days: 11,000,000 done. Fives, 22 5-16ths at
60 days : 1,000,000 done. Passives, 7 3- 16ths at 60
' days: 1,000,000 done.

We have received the Paris papers of Thursday. M
G utz,T's speech at Lisieux is the subject of comment
in most of them, and La Press!: takes the occasion to
draw a most ingenious parallel, after the manner of
PLlYrAncif, between M. GUIZOT and M. TRIERS. They
all also contain articles on the declaration of war by
Mexico against the United States, which none of them
seem to regard in a very serious light.
From the following, which appears in the Journal des
Debuts under the date of Zurich, 10th August, it would
appear as if another collision in Switzerland was immi-
nent :
yesterday, the Berne Deputies left Zurich precipitately.
The cause of this abrupt departure is a secret. fhis day the
District Committees of the famous popular league are to meet
at nerve, an event of Whileture to excite alarm in the,Govern-
ment of this Canton. the popular league is deliberating
