slightest benefit from that

lay achieve a bloodless and
gi. of 1782. The names Of
-Grattan and Conan have been deservedly inscribed•
upon the pedestal of public liberty, and it will be our
'endeavour upon that pedestal to scratch our names. I
thoroughly convinced that it is absolutely necessary
for the benefit of England herself that the Union should
be repealed. How are 650 men to be brought together,
to agree upon any itibject ? The thing could never be
accomplished if there were not a certain inducement.—
a kind of Oil of rhodium to attract them. It requires a
• Ministerial Sarbpson to catch the fortes, and tie together
the rats of parliament. Mr. O'Connell sat down
amidst the most enthusiastic cheering from all parts of
the Meeting.

In our preceding columns will be found ample ex
-

tracts from the Foreign Papers received since Saturday ;
but although the German and French prints all concur
in the statement that an engagement has taken place
between the Turks and Russians, still the intelligence
conveyed by them is vague and unsatisfactory. There
are arrivals from Constantinople to the IRh May. but
nothing official is given respecting the operations of the,
GRAND \lmmo, further than that he had sent one part

of his army towards Varna and the ether towards

Schumla, There seems to be daily skirmishing at
, various points. particularly at Sizeboli and in the yid.
sky of Siliitria ; but without any material advantage
to either Of the contending parties.

It will be observed by an article from Corfu, dated
the 14th of May, that the town and citadal of Lepanto
surrendered to the Greeks on the 24th of April ; and
that, in terms of the capitulation, the Turkish inhabi-
tants, about 8,000, were to be sent to Albania and
Smyrna. Missolongbi was likewise expected soon to
surrender. The Loan HIGH commission= of the
lonian Isles had taken measures to hinder any blockade
of the coasts of Albania or Rumelia; and orders had

accordingly been issued to all competent authorities to
clear out for the ports on these coasts, so that there shall
be no interruption to the commerce of British or lonian
subjects with those countries.

Lisbon Papers to 21st ultimo inform es that Don
thainti. has been proclaimed Sovereign in the Care
Verd Islands, and other Portugnem possessions on the

coast of Africa, and in Damao in India—it is added
•• 04 with the greatest joy and all possible solemnity." In
the meantime the proceedings of this vicious Prince at
borne are unexampled in the annals of atrocity and
cruelty. The scene of the current executions is now
transferred from Oporto to his capital; and out of about
one hundred State prisoners at Lisbon, it is computed
that forty-five are doomed to suffer.

At an aggregate Meeting of the Friends of Civil anti
Religious Liberty, held in Dublin en Wednesday laic.
a portion of the Old Catholic Rent, amounting to.
£5,000, was voted to defray the expenses of the re.
election of Mr. (nomad. for the county of Claret—'
On this occasion the greatest respect was shown to Mr.
O'CoNtazu., and the most enthusiastic manifestatom, of
warm-heartedness evinced towards him.— Mr.Cotni►AY
moved jhe resolution, calling upon the freeholders
Clete to re•elect their former Representative, which
was sicooded by Mr. SHICIL, in a long and eloquent
speeeth On the resolution of the money grant a warm
discuslion took place, in which Mr. CURRAN cautioned
the !fleeting against appropriating so large a sum is
thd way proposed—saying, that is the Report upon the
funds of the Association there could be found no sanction
for the destined expenditure. MT.CURRAteII resistancsk
however, was solitary, and of Ito use; and the pro•
ceedings of the Meeting closed by a long harangue frosw
Mr. O'Coutrat.t., which would lead us to conclude that
the days of agitation are far from being at end. Ono
resolution consisted in an expression of gradtede td
