(FROM THE NEWS.)

The Marquis of Anglesea is expected to leave
Dublin to-morrow, where every preparation has been
made to mark his departure by the most striking
symbols of regret. tie is to he attended on his
embarkation by greater crowds than hailed the ap-
proach of Majesty, on the royal visit to Ireland a
few years ago. We hope he will not disappoint this
intended expression of public feeling by nay private
or hurried leave-taking. As the Premier—for to
talk of the Mi iistry is ridiculous—does not seem
prepared with a successor to the Noble Marquis,
the government of Ireland is for the present to be
confided to Lords Justices—the heads of the
Church, the Law, and the Army—the Primate,
Doctor Beresford, Archbishop of Armagh--the
• Lord Chancellor, Sir Anthony hart—and the Com-
mander of the Forces, Sir John J3yng. This ar-
rangement however cannot last long, as Sir Anthony
Hatt has been found guilts/ of a similar crime to
that of the late Lord Lieutenant--he has admi-
nistered his office too impartially. He is therefore
to be recalled. We were perfectly right, when we
last week gave it as our opinion that the flood-gates
of abuse would, by the Treasury prints, be opened
on the Marquis of Anglesea for his mode of govern-
ing Ireland. No accusation, short of treason, is too
bad for him, and even that stain on his character is
more than hinted at by some of the backbone
Brunswickers. The Morning Post of Thursdal
last, in contradicting some of the insinuations in the
Times, as to the real causes of the Noble Marquis's
recall, says—" These advocates of the Marenis
know, that he is recalled for gross and repeated
violations of his official duty." This must be
admitted to be pretty strong language towards
the King's Lieute ;ant; but the Marquis's star is sup-
posed to be in the wane, and therefore every brute
is authorised and encouraged to lift his foot at him.
Thc Standard on Friday follows in the same track;
for after hinting that. the Marquis has been com-
manded to leave Dublin "immediately," it adds
" that he must hold himself in readine.s to give an
explanation of hie conduct on the sitting of Parlia-
ment." We sincerely hope he will ;• and that he
will give to the world not only a clear explanation
of his own conduct, but of the conduct of those who
have caused his removal. In that case we may ex-
pect some interesting disclosures, in which perhaps
a nymph of the Woods and Forests may cut a pro-
minent figure. Under the head of " Ireland," we
give two instances of the mariner in which justice.
is dealt out in that unhappy country to the members
of the two religions. God knows if such have taken
place under the Marquis of .Anglesea's administra-
tion, why the Brunswickers should be dissatisfied
with his Government. We have ever been of opi-
nion that in their demands fur emancipation, the
MA Catholics are not solely influenced by a sense
of injustice on the score of their religion—but that
they consider their civil tights as subjects materially
involved. They cannot but perceive that there is
one set of Laws for the Catholic and another for
the Protestant; and we firmly believe could these
be assimilated, and fairly and impartially adminis-
tered, it would go very far to deprive the question
of Catholic Ernsncipati.le of a large eortion of its
venom. The Irish Catholics may be censured for
heat arid want of temper, but goaded an they are
daily, by a feeling of undeserved degradation both in
their civil and religious rights, they must be more
or less than men to submit tamely to the infliction. •
