THE FUNDS

The fluctuations in the last week have not been
great—merely from 71% sellers, to 713/3 buyers, for
the opening on the 19th of this month. The last price,
en Saturday, was 71% sellers, and it being a holiday,
there was not much doing. There have been some
extensive sales by good men, and many of the know-
ing ones are puzzled. The Dividends will be paid
to the Public To-morrow, and, as usual, it will
probably be found that their effect is anticipated.--
Some of the Bulls are dropping their tails and slack-
enitt their pace, evidently doubting whether they
shall reach the fat pasture they expected.

the particulars that have as yet been suffered to
ermtspire respecting tlte Public Revenue for the Year
118110, are 'briefly these :—.The Revenue of the year
fast expired exceeds that of the year 1819 by a sum
of about £2,800,000. This excess arises wholly in
die Excise, including the new duty, and duties trans-
ferred from the Customs.--The Customs have yielded
%bout £300,000 less than in 1819,--The Stamps
Stave sunk about £50,000; the Post-Office Revenue
stbout £80,000; the Land-Tax £40,000; and Miscel-
laneous articles £loo,Ooo.—The Assessed Taxes have
produced an increase of £130,000.

As, on the whole Revenue for the Year there ap-
pears to be an increase of D 2,500,000, we shall no
doubt be told—nay, we have been told—that this
Swishes a strong proof of *turning prosperity. We
we could, fOr4 the premises, mks this-Yaw of

the Naiad, bit Ole c4sisicleratioas &stilt is. It..
stead of an increase of only £2,300,000, the new
Duties alone should have yielded a clear excess of
ss,iso,ooo ; and it is obvious that the option granted
last year to increase the number of windows, Scc.
without limitation, on paying an advance of five per
cent. on the former assessment, has brought in all
the increase that appears in the Assessed Duties.
And further, as to the positive defalcations, they are,
of evil foreboding indeed—the Stamps and the Post-
Office—strewing a depression of trade to an alarming
extent. The Post-Office Revenue, in particular, is a
most accurate Trade-metre, and this scale has sunk
80,000!

But why has not the comparative produce of the
expired Quarter with that of 1819 been suffered to
transpire? If we may credit the current rumours,
this would have been too depressing a dose to admi-
nister all at once to,the squeamish stomach of Joint
Bull. In the last Quarter of 1820, kis said that the
Customs almost entirely failed—the rumoured re.
ceipts for one entire week, at theiCustom-house of

London, being ku aisle £Boo—that the general fall-
ing off of the Quarter, as compared with that which
ended sth January, 1820, was 1:400,000-1400,000,
nay, latterly, that it amounted to not less than
£120,000. If these allegations were unfounded, an
arithmetical Return would have disproved them; if
otherwise, it would have been but manly and honest
to confess them.

• The last Quarter has, according to report, actually
fallen short of the corresponding Quarter £BOO,OOO,
notwithstanding the new Takes. If this be correct,
there is a deficiency of nearly £1,600,000.

Since our last we have received letters and papers
direct from Naples to the 20th ult.—The embarka-
tion of the KING took place on the 13th, as before
relaged, but he was detained by adverse winds and
tempestuous weather in the Bay of Naples. We quote
a passage from one of the private testers." The em-
barkation," says the writer, " was a truly beautiful
sight. His MAJESTY was carried from the shore in
the launch of the English Admiral, having the Ad-
miral on his right, and the Princess de PATERNA
(who accompanies him) on his left hand. At that
instant a Royal salute was fired from the French and
English fleets at anchor in the Bay, with colours
flying, and the yards of every vessel manned.. The
Royal Standard of Naples was hoisted at the main of
the VENoitua, the moment the Km came on board.
The natural grandeur of the scene was increased by
one of the finest days of the season, the sun shining ,
brilliantly, and the sky without a cloud. The cere-
tnony, however, had scarcely terminated, when a
very different spectacle was presented. The wind
changed, the sky grew cloudy, the weather became',
turbulent, and by night had increased to a storm. Inj
the darkness and confusion, the Valrosva and Ray°.
icrtoNNataz ran foul of each other, and the former
received so much damage, that both vessels put into
Baia, where they remained till the 16th, on which
day the Royal Party sailed with favourable windsfor.
Leghorn. The event of the storm operating on the
minds of a people naturally addicted to supersti-
tion, produced a thousand gloomy presages respect-
ing the Royal journey."

During his MAJESTY'S detention at Baia, a Depu-
tation from the Parliament waited on him to renew
their vows of loyalty acrd attachment to his person.
In the meantime the occurrences at Naples were not
without considerable interest.

The Prince Vicar-General, now Regent of the
Kingdom, issued a Proclamation to the People, dated
the 15th December, on assuming his new functions,
of which we transcribe the concluding passages :
alter some remarks on the departure and the mission
of his father, he proceeds thus I
I remain among you Regent of the Kingdom ; and be as-'
gored I will do everything in my power to return the new► mark
of confidence reposed in me by the Nation and the King. I
shall redouble my anxiety and my labours for your welfare, al-
ways pursuing exactly the career pointed out by the Constitution
to which we have sworn.

" I feel secure, however, that you will always taste■ to my
voice when hi concord with that Constitution. This is the more
necessary, since it Is by the prudence of your conduct, at ono.
Arm and moderate, you will give force to the arguments which
the King, my august parent, will offer to the Congress at Lay-
bath in support of our national independence, and enable him to
prove, by an appeal to facts, east the liberty established-by the
generous free wilt of the Sovereign, is not a dangerous predka-
merit, but that our true social contract has consolidated the
Throne bt founding k on the love of the People.
" Let all, thee, be of one accord, not less to sustain the rights
of the Nation, than to obey the appointed Constitutional Au-
thorities, and to banish from among yon all spirit of dheord,
which can only tend to weaken us. Let us, Anally, form a
solid andzespeeted body, which may place us in the must im-
posing rank of Nations." • I

On the morning of the 18th, the Prince Regent
took the oath before the whole Parliament, attended
by the grand and imposing ceremonies suited to the
occasion. At the termination, the President addressed
his Royal Highness in the following terms :
" Yoga Htenanse—The solemn act that you have now per-
formed fills oar hearts with tenderness and joy. The attach-
ment of your Royal Highness to the welfare of the People was
always apparent: weisew see it confirmed by your solemn pro-
mise, and sanctioned by the guarantee of the Goo of Justice.—
The Parliament, Sir, does net cease to emsgrandate its& on
having confided to you the Provisional Governante of the King-
dom. They know that they have confided it to one who levee
the Caostitutise, who knows how to secure it, and who east
alone diminish ourpief for the absence of his august father.--
Under the auspices of your Royal Highness, we shall see the ek-
vation sad force of ourNatisa always extend thesaselve&We shall
continually become moon worthy of (be esteem of geed am,

Friendship with fervor, and Opprtssinn by force that there Is
nothing, in fact, of which an independent Nada), with a ansigna-
Riotous Prints at lis head, is not capable.

The Prince Regent replied--
" Lamas Dermas—With the wannest emelldlity of my
heart I also participate in the psis which the Kin. sty august
father. has caused; but I an more than etssoied by the noble
ablest for which he has undertaken to pressed tit the Congress
at Lo h, whisk is to maintain the souse of his Iteloved eeun
try, aid to exert all his Mous to remove front as the scourge of,
war. The sew title and the duties which yes have allotted to
me, in concert with my august father, during his absence, are 1
fresh proofs of the confidence of the Nation in me. This is an
inducement sullideatly alelltiOUS to make me employ every
means in my powerrand to neglect no labour, is soles to be the
vigilant guardian of ear existing Coludtuties, and to reader it
the source of glory and prosperity to the Nation.
" Far from us be pallid diffidence and black intrigue. Let us
hold on our course together in the path of honour and of pa-
triotistn--you with all the powers which the Constitution gives'
to the Legislature, and I with that energy and freedom which it
assigns to the Executive Authority.
" These two powers, though always distinct, must still alter-
nately islet each other in consolidating the machine of the State.
" While our King and father is defending, with his venerable
voice, the cause of his country in the midst of the august Cos.
pen of Allied Monarch!, let us act so that our noble, firm, and
loyal conduct may constantly furnish him with the strongest
reasons in our favour.

" Let your deliberations be free, but at the same time calm.
Institute a serious examination into thewants of the State,andind
the means necessary to enable the War Department to adopt
such measures as may place us oa a footing to render ourselves
respected, and to maintain our independence. Let our Magis-
trates be just and active in the administration of the laws India.

'eatable for the ntaintenance of social crder and public happi-
nem In a word. let all elleacioutly contribute to the public
welfare, by avoiding hostile auressloas, and rendering the coun-
try happy"

The contlusion of the Prince's speech was accom-
panied with the most lively applause from the Hall
and all the Tribunes; In this moment he appeared
unable to restrain the impulse of the thoughts by
which his mind was agitated. He waved his hand
to speak once more, and uttered the following words
in an accent of strong emotion:

" Tire words which I have just spoken come from the bottom
of my heart, in which I guard the Constitution to whisk I have
sworn as the foundation of our national prosperity. Such also
are the sentiments of his Majesty, our King and father, which
he repeated to me a thousand times before his departure."

At these words, which called tears of joy into the
eyes of the spectators, the Hall echoed with accla-
mations of " Live the King," and the most sincere be-
nedictions for the happiness of all the Royal Family.

The Paris Papers of Thursday have arrived since
our last. The Chamber of Deputies were occupied
on Wednesday in examining the Project of Law for
the provisional collection of six-twelfths of the direct'
Revenue for the current year. The accounts in these
Papers, from Naples, add nothing to what we have
received direct from that quarter, and have given. in
'another part.—Five per Cents. Wednesday, 80fr. sc.

The Madrid Papers announce, that the news of the
events which took place in Portugal in the month of
August, and of the wishes of the Lusitanian People,
reached Rio de Janeiro on the 19th October. His
Most Faithful Majesty hastened to recognize the le-
gitimacy of their wishes, to approve the convocation
of the Cortes, and to authorise the formation of a
Constitution, which, as soon as it is finished, he de-
sires may be transmitted to him, that he may invest
it with his Royal sanction. His Majesty adds, that
when this step is taken, he will determine whether
he will return in person to Lisbon, or send one of
the Princes of his family.

Saturday being the Anniversary of the Epiphany,
or the Manifestation of our Sitvtot.Ta to the Gentiles,
it was observed with the usual ceremonies at the
Chapel Royal, in the King's Palace, St. James's.—

ing Service, descended to tie Altar to present time
boxes of gold, frankincense, and myrrh, were T. B.
Must, Esq. and another Gentleman Usher, in imita-
tion of the Wise Men of the East at the Nativity.—
The Anthem was selected from the Collect of the
day, composed by Mr. Arrwoon Composer to his
Majesty's Chapel Royal. It was admirably sung by
Messrs. SALMON, HAWES, and Mummtux.

lyli4WOOd, M.P. do take the Chair, which
' by Mr. Amato:sea, was unani-
to.
being Made of want of accommoda-
'the limited description of the persons
attend the Meeting, it was proposed to
more distant day ; but a motion to this
ier-ruled by a majority of 19. there being
iroceeding, and 4.4. for adjourning.
- was then proposed by Mr. Mune, of
Vice-Lieutenant of the County.
TIM. of Southbar, seconded the mo-

ianimity ; there was not one topic intro-
silated to excite discussion ; no recent
.ken notice of, neither was there any
spprobation or disapprobation of the conduct of Mi-
nisters: it was left entirely to his Majesty to employ
obis Counsellors, those men whom he thought best
calculated for that high station.
Mr. MAXWELL, younger, of Pollok, M.P. said, it
would ill become him, as the organ of the People, to
his vote to an Address like the present, for he
' with shame and disgust the eitraordinary at-
, made to support a tottering Administration,
whi; had entirely lost the confidence of the Nation.
Ile felt it his duty to pay attention to the voice of the
people, and he would certainly take the necessary
steps to make his Majesty acquainted with the true
state of public feeling—(Cheers). A fiiend of his had
said, we were on the eve of Revolution; and to what
cause was this to be ascribed, but to lung neglect and
misusage on the part of the Rulers of the People.
Honourable Gentleman then proceeded to state
some of his reasons for disapproving of the conduct
of his Majesty's Ministers. The few observations he
had made, he hoped would not be construed as a
wish on his part to foster discontent, for he felt it to
be his duty to state the truth to the King .in such
language as would tend to secure the Country from
a national bankruptcy, and shew the true feelings of
the Community. He would now read a counter-
Address, and then retire with the consolatory feelings
of having done his duty. The principal point of dif-
ference iu the Address was a recommendation to his
Majesty to make such a change as would restore the
confidence of the People in the Ministry of the Coun-
try.—Mr. SPIERS, of Elderslie, seconded the motion
in a short speech.
Dr. JEFFRAT said he had listened with much plea-
sure to the speech of Mr. Maxwell, but he differed
from him in sentiment, as he likewise did with the
Gentleman who spoke last. Their object was to
throw the blame of all the misfortunes which bad be-
fella, the country on the devoted heads of the Minis-
ten, but this was a doctrine he could never sub-
scribe to- (Much disapprobation).
Mr. Sirens, jun. of Culcreuch, said, if the Ad-
dress was merely one of devotion and attachment to
the Ki all present (he was well assured) would
most :.eartily agree to it. He considered it, how-
ever, a libel on the people, who had lavished their
blood to protect their country, and whose loyalty was
as firm as ever : he was perfectly at variance with
the party who called this Meeting, for ho considered
disaffection to Ministers to be loyalty to the King.
Lord SUCCOTH begged leave to make a few obser-
vations. 11e thought every end would be answered
by the original Address, and he could not conceive
any necessity ibr a counter one, unless it were just
for the sake of opposition. There was certainly no-
thing wrong in forwarding an Address to his Majesty,
when they saw how many were forwarded to the
Queen. He was nut able to give any opinion on the
merits of that case, never having read the evidence;
bit this he knew, that a number of Lords in their
places declared it was not because they did not think
her guilty, but merely as a matter of expediencY, that
they voted as they had done. It was well known that
the Queen was a rallying point of the evil-minded.'
to awaken disloyalty, and her case had been tacked:
to others, to create discontent—(Hisses).—We have
been told the business of the present Meeting was to
support a tottering Administration ; but there was
in the Address neither approbation nor disapprobation
of the conduct of Ministers.
111•CURINGHAME spoke in favour of the Amendment.
Mr. STEWART proposed, as an Amendment, solely
for the sake of unanimity, to add two lines to the bot-
Om of the original Address, saying, that this Meet-1
ing neither meant to convey approbation or disappro-
bation of the conduct of Ministers—(Much uproar).
Mr. flaxweta. said, he had proposed an amended
Address, but he was ready to do anything to tran-
quillize and promote unanimity ; and although it was
a child of his own, he readily gave it up for the pro-
motion of this desirable end.
Dr. JEFFRAY said, there was nothing in the origi-
nal Address respecting the conduct of Ministers, and
be thought this Amendment a sort of a side-wind to
counteract the intentions of the Meeting.
Lord SUCCOTH was of the same opinion.
The question was then put, when there appeared—

Mr. MAXWELL protested against the proceedings
of the Meeting for himself, as well as for a number
Of the inhabitants of Paisley, who had signed a docu-
ment" which he read.
Mr. SPIRES seconded the Protest.
The Address was ordered to be transmitted to
Lord SIDHOUTH, to be presented to his Majesty.

The subscribers to the Loyal Address which has
been hawked about the County of Hants, understand-
ing that the Sheriff had appointed a Public Meeting
of the County, to be held on Friday next, to take the
present state of affairs into consideration, thought
proper to present what they call a counter-Requisi-.
Lion, but which ought rather to be styled Remon-
strance, in which they endeavour to persuade the
Sherd that their private Loyal Address has super-
seded the necessity of any other proceeding on the
part of the County. The Sheriff, in reply to this Re-
monstrance, has stated shortly, that, having agreed
Mich sleeting should be holden before he received the
sounter-Requisitiuty the appointment must stand.

• nik DUBLIN brITRAGI.

DUBLIN, JANUARY t.
Yesterday, the most numerous and respectable
Meeting .that we have for sothe time witnessed in this
City, took place at D'Aitcfs, Corn Exchange Tavern.
It is worthy of remark, that although there was but
a few hours notice of the Meeting, which was called
for the purpose of considering the best means to be
adopted in consequence of the late outrage on the
Freeholders of the County of. Dublin, the crowded
state of the Great Room evinced the anxiety and
strong feeling which had been excited in the minds
of the Citizens of Dublin, by the violent and uncon-
stitutional proceedings on Saturday, at the Court
House of Kilmainham.
. ARCHIBALD HAMILTON ROWAN, Esq. having been
'called to the Chair, Mr. O'Cornsem, moved that
Counsellor Finlay should act as Secretary, which
was carried unanimously.
Mr. O'CoNNELL they said—" As one of those per-
sons who witnessed the late outrage on the remnant
of liberty yet remaining in Ireland, I intend propos-
ing that a Committee be appointed to consult on the
best means to be adopted to obtain redress for that
outrage, and that the Committee shall make their re-
port to a General Meeting, on Thursday next. The
County Meeting on Saturday, which was one of the
largest witnessed for a length of time, was ton peace-
able to afford any pretence, even in Ireland, to take
away the undoubted right of the People ; but Ire-,
land, like the man's head in the fair, lay so fair for a
blow, they could not resist the desire of striking at it.,
I now move, Mr. Chairman, that a Committee of
eleven be appointed to consult on the most constitu-
tional mode of demanding redress for the outrage
cornmittedon the Freeholders of the County of Dub-
lin, on Saturday last."
Captain FOTTRELL next addressed the Meeting in
nearly the following words:—" Mr. Chairman—l will
vie in loyalty with any man, but I would not be satis-
fied in giving expression to it in a smothered voice;
I would act on it. With that feeling I went to the
County Meeting, on Saturday last, but I was not per-
mitted to deliver my sentiments. I was the more as-
tonished at the introduction of the Army into the
Court House, on Saturday, by the High Sheriff, as I
had an opportunity of witnessing his very proper con-
' duct at the late County of Dublin Election. I, as an
Officer, would have supported the Civil Power, had
they been called in ; but they were not, although Al-
derman Darley and Alderman Cash were present.
This much, however, I will say, that I did not see a
bayonet in the Court House—( Voices in the crowd,
' I did, I did'). I speak, of course, only from my
own observation. It is still my belief, that that out-
rage was not a premeditated act, and that it was not
the act of Government. Some of the Magistrates
condemned it; I heard Major Sin say, outside of the
Court House, after it had been cleared, that 4he
would have permitted every man to deliver his senti-
ments.' For myself, I went to that Meeting by in-
vitation—by invitation of the High Sheriff, to vote an
• Address to his Majesty, and certainly will never ac-
cept his invitation again."
Mr. FINLAY.—" I hope the situation you have
done me the honour to place me in does not preclude
me from saying a few words on the unparalleled out-
rage of last Saturday—(Cries of No, no'). Gentle-
men, in my mind, that outrage was of too great a
magnitude for Sir Richard Steele totave stumbled
upon it by mere accident. What! when we go by
invitation of the Sheriff, are we to meet under the
range of artillery? Is this the way to suppress the
public voice ? No, Gentlemen, it will operate in a
very different manner; it will produce great political
good ; it will excuse us in the eyes of all England for
our late apparent apathy ; they will say, that tenor
kept us silent ; they will see, that when we have con-
stitutionally met for a legal purpose, we have been
dispersed by the bayonet. Gentlemen, by your for-
bearance on Saturday, you have succeeded in one
material point; you have put your enemies in the
wrong ; and it wanted but the slightest indiscretion,
on the part of the People, to form a miniature—l
should say, a picture of the dreadful scene at Manches-
ter. The Magistrates, whose courage was not of a holi-
day description, looked gravely on, whilst this feather-
headed Sheriff sent an armed soldiery to disperse the
peaceable Freeholders. There he sat, forsooth, and,
like a boy perched on the top of Patrick's steeple, all
the world looked little- o him, whilst he looked little
to all the world—(Great laughter) ;—or, like a
monkey, with a lighted match, astride upon a barrel
of gun-powder—(Laughter).—We all witnessed the
drawling hesitation between him and the Magistrates,
yet, when no Riot Act was read—no disposition to
riot manifested—he called in the military to disperse
his own Meeting. There were Members of Parlia-
ment also present, who will tell you that you cannot
meet in the open air, and when you meet in your
own Court-house, you are driven out of it. Is this
what is called a constituent Government ? No, it is
a mischievous abuse of words to term it such. Better
would it be to live under the Dey of itlgiers than be
subject to such outrages. Ingenuity itself can find
no excuse for these men, who, when you open your
mouths at a Meeting legally convened, that instant
they open on you the mouths of their musketry.—
Gentlemen, circulars have been issued, calling Meet-
ings in every County in Ireland to vote Loyal Ad-
dresses to his Majesty. I have seen some of them.
Active exertions have been made ; and it is my be-
lief, that were it not for the proceedings of last Satur-
day, two and thirty Loyal Addresses would be voted
from Ireland—( No, no!).--At all events, their
number has been considerably reduced by the indig-
nation felt at this attempt to put down by force the
honest expression of public opinion. We should re-
collect, that 4 MAO'S extremity is Goes opportunity ;'
and we may yet hope that the orb of freedom shall
rise in splendour over an astonished world—
, Dangers retreat when boldly they're confronted.' "
Mr. Finlay sat down amid great applause.
ENEAS M'DoNNELL, Esq. addressed the Meeting
in substance as follows Mr. Chairman, before Mr.
O'Connell's motion is put relative to forming a Com-
mittee, I think it necessary that we should have
some knowledge as to the mode likely to be adopted
by that Committee. I declare that I went to the
County Meeting without any knowledge of a previ-
ous Meeting having been held here, and it was my
opinion, that the less discussion we had on public
topics the better ; I declare also, that neither of the
Addresses would have met my approbation. It has
been mentioned here, that the soldiers who had been

btimght into the Court-house had-no bayonekt t
distinctly assert, that I saw bayonets; and it is my
firm, conviction, that had I even remonstrated, I
would have felt a bayonet. I beard. the Sheriff ex-
claim to the soldiers, " Why don't yoti do your
duty ?" and to do them justice, I must say, the sol-*
diers seemed very well disposed to it. Under these
circumstances, does it require much deliberation to
ascertain what should be our first course? Can any
man hesitate, or require the assistance of eleven men
in forming an opinion on this outrage? If such
atrocious and unconstitutional proceedings are suf-
fered, we are not safe when assembled together in
any chapel, church, or public place of worship.—
That lives were not lost there, is or.ly to be attri-
buted to the forbearance of the People. Had lives
been lost there, would it not have been murder
Will those Gentlemen who calmly looked on while
this outrage was perpetrating, will they say it
would not have been murder ? Had murder ensued,
would the Sheriff have been brought to trial ?
I am confident, by the ease with which he 'moves
through the City to-day, that he believes he would
be borne perfectly harmless, and left to rest in full
security, as if he had all the time been quietly sip-
ping his tea. I was one of the last that left the Court-
house on Saturday, when the soldiers strode over the
benches, and moved towards Lord Cloncurry, fur the
purpose of removing him ; his Lordship said, he
would wish to ask the Officer of the guard (who
was at that moment crossing the table) by whose
authority he acted? I represented this to the sol-
diers, and I verily believe, that had I persisted in
my remonstrance, I should have had a bayonet down
my throat. Gentlemen, the first thing to be ascer-
tained is, whether the Government sanctions this
outrage or not? I would put the question fairly to
them, Do you, or do you not, sanction this atro-
city ?' Should the answer be, The laws are open
to you for redress,' of course we know the meaning.
It is a question of life or death. It is to ascertain
whether the subject can be murdered with impunity?
I would have you apply at once to the Castle, as it
would give Government an opportunity of tranquil-
lizing the public mind. For myself, I would not
wait for the opinions of any eleven Gentlemen to ex-
press my sentiments on this illegal outrage."
Counsellor CURRAN next addressed the Meeting
to the following effect:—" Mr. Chairman and Gen-
tlemen—lt was not my intention to offer any remarks
of mine to the present Meeting, on the outrage com-
mitted on the Freeholders of the County on last Sa-
turday. But when the rumour has gone abroad that
the soldiers had not their bayonets when they were
brought into the Court-house to disperse that Meet-
ing, I feel it my duty to state, that such is not the
fact. The soldiers were armed with bayonets, and
when an Officer of the Guard approached Lord Clon-
curry, for the purpose of removing his Lordship, 1
was remonstrating with the soldiers, and I verily be-
lieve, had I persisted in that remonstrance, beyond
what might suit the soldiers idea of propriety, that
I would have been run through the body. Will the
Magistrates who were present connive at, or were
they participators in, the outrage committed by this
intemperate and foolish Public Officer ? If there is
not a suspension of that Officer, must we not sup-
pose that Government #anctions the act ? As Irish-
men,• let us yet chew to the world that we yet can
value freedom. Though freedom is nearly extinct in
this country—though we know little more of it than
what we learn from our books—and though England
may tell us there is little original among us, let us,
at least, have the ambition to be imitators, in thus
asserting our rights. I know not but I may be de-
nounced as an agitator—l care not. It is not neces-
sary to excite your feelings on this outrage; but did
so much apathy exist as would require excitement, 1
should feel it my duty to inflame the public mind at
this scene acted at our Provincial Theatre, from the
grand performance in the Sister Kingdom."
Mr. O'CoNeilia. said, in reply to Mr. M'Donnell,
" I beg leave to say, that the words of the motion I
have proposed for the appointment of a Committee
are, that 4 they are to demand redress for the out-
rage: The word outrage was, perhaps, as strong a
term as I could use, and of course the most fitting.
I would not approve of sending to the Castle—l
would have the affair brought before Parliament,
and not let it be cushioned at the Castle. These are
not times when we should go about with a begging-
box—we should assert our rights. See how the
People of England have contended for liberty; and
shall we be told we are well off, having passed
through the year 1820 with only one outrage ? See
how nobly Spain has contended. Look to Naples,
that runs a peril, not from Austria, but from her
.own bayonets, after having acted towards Sicily as
one that we could name towards another coontry.—
Did Portugal, in its emergency, send a memorial to
the Brazils, directed to some man with a long name
at Rio Janeiro, whilst they must wait patiently a
year and a half for an answer? The Portuguese
have been termed by a Noble Lord—
. Base Lusian slaves—the lowest of the low.'
Yet what have these People achieved ? They are,
now the freest of the free. I would recommend,
that the matter should be brought immediately
before Parliament—that an Aggregate Meeting
should be called, to hear the public opinion on it—
and that a correspondence should be formed with dif-
ferent parts of England and Scotland on the subject.
It is the business of one and all to seek redress, and
if we'have it not, better lie down at once and perish.
Yet the Poet's prophecy has given a glimpse of hope
to his ill-fated country—
" The Nations have fern, and thou still art young,
Thy Sun is but rising, whilst others are set ;
And tho' Slavery's cloud e'er thy morning hath hung,
The full Moon of Freedom shall beam round thee yet.
•
Erin' oh! Erin, though lung in the shade,
Thy Star will shine out when the proudest shall fade !"
Mr. ENZAS M'Doe Neu. having expressed his as-
sent to Mr. O'Connell's motion for a Committee, it
was carried unanimously—by an amendment, the
Committee was enlarged to fifteen, and the following
Gentlemen were separately voted on it :
Counsellor Curran Sir C. Morgan, Counsellor Finlay, Conn-
sellor Wolfe, Counsellor O'Connell, CounsellorEneas MiDonnell,
A. Hamilton Rowan, Esq. Counsellor Burne, Lord Miscarry,
William Humphries, Esq. William Murphy, Esq. J. Dennis
Mullen, Esq. Captain Fottrell, Counsellor H. Dawson, Coun-
sellor Ilusband, sen.
Mr. O'CoNetia. then moved the warmest thanks
of the Meeting to Lord Cloncurry, for his spirited
and becoming conduct on Saturday, which was car-
ried with acclamation, and the meet adjourned till
Thursday; to receive the Report of the Committee.
