Where are the proofs

When Lord Joan RUSSELL, in one of his paroxysm

of Protestant zeal, with which he is sometimes
afflicted, tOldlhe Romanist members of the House

of Commons the plain truth in good nervous Saxon,
'that they were disloyal traitors, ever teaching sedi-
tion, anitrendering good government in Ireland im-
possible,tkree of the underlings of the Ministry took
offence, and for once in their lives practised the
virtue of resignation. But how did our constitu-
tional 'IIII,EMIER, receive the insolent missive ? Did
he do us any reasonable man would have done,
accept: the resignations, and readily seize the oppor-
tunity of repairing the mistake which he had com-
mitted, in entrusting office to those who had ad-
niitted that a charge of sedition applied to them ?
'He had neither the courage nor the honesty to
pursue a manly course, but, in the consciousness
that the appointment of such allies was to purchase
the votes of, the Romish Brigade, wrote to his
angry underlings with cringing servility, repudiated
the Protestant sentiments of his colleague, and
gained his base purpose by inducing them to re-

main. No marvel, then, that with the leaders of

two Houses of Parliament at open variance,
the settlement of the question between Russia and
Turkey has proved a protracted affair, paralysing
commerce, and involving serious loss even by the
delay. In order to gratify his ORLEANIST predi-
lections, and vent his spleen against Louis NA.PO-
- he sided with -Russia until he found himself

in a minority in his own Cabinet, and the pressure
from without compelled him to surrender; but in
the mean time Russia gained her object, by occupy-
ing the Danubian principalities. Such is the Earl
of ABERDEEN, the nominal head of the Coalition
Ministry, and yet for this man, whom history will
require a new style of language adequately to de-
scribe, England has lost the services of the Earl of
DEBBY. There is no evil, however, without its
uses, and the Premiership of the Earl of ABERDEEN
serves as a foil to reconcile us to his colleagues,
who, with all their faults, will gain in the com-
parison.

THE great cry of the political agitators in the
sister country was for justice to Ireland, although
the effect of all their acts was to render its

population was indolence, for which the only remedy
was industry ; and as this could only be obtained
by the employment of capital, they showed their
sincerity in true Irish fashion, by shooting their
landlords, and by their stupid jealousy of Saxon
rivalry. The demand has now been obtained, in a
way that was least expected, and without the
slightest aid from agitation. The munificence of

an individual, who may be said to personify the
genius of labour, and the kind and considerate
patronage of our beloved MONARCH, have done

more to give justice to Ireland than all the
insensate clamours of the arch-traitor DANIEL
O'CONNELL, and his satellites and imitators. An
English ministry surrendered the Irish people to
the tyranny of the Romish priests, and a perpetua-
tion of :ignorance and superstition, the hatred of
bigotry and the poverty of sloth. Mr. DA.RGAN
gave theme, great exhibition in Dublin to stimulate
their industry, divert the rivalry of races into an
emulation for superiority in the arts, and fill their
capital with visitors, who, for the first time in the
history of Ireland, could find something to admire
in the works of her inhabitants. Her MAJESTY
has won the hearts of her Irish subjects by her
well-timed visit, and by the grace, peculiarly her
own, with which she testified her appreciation of
the noble-hearted individual to whom Ireland is
indebted, far more than for the munificent sum
which he embarked in the great cause, which,
under the blessing of PROVIDENCE, will make the
barren wilderness to blossom as the rose. The
enterprise of Mr. DARGAN has given Ireland the
advantage of railroads, employment for her popu-
lation, and the prospective benefits which may
accrue from them. It has served to avert the tide
of emigration which was well nigh depopulating
her, and, by restoring confidence, inciting the
employment of capital, which is indispensable to a
development of her resources. The exhibition in
Dublin will, it is hoped, prove the commencement
of a new era in the history of the sister country,
not only by stimulating the hitherto dormant
energies of her inhabitants, but, by creating an
appreciation of her products, lead to an increased
demand for them. The movement has been made,
the first step has been taken, and if the expectation
bo realised, the name of DARGAN will be handed
down to posterity as the single-hearted individual
who demonstrated, in his own person, the true
nobility of labour, and received his reward in the
personal thanks of his Sovereign, and the cordial
appreciation of his endeavours by all classes of his
countrymen. If ever the Irish people draw an
impartial comparison between the recent gathering
in Dublin and the monster meetings at Tara,
Mullaghmast, and other places, with their fright-
ful results, they must find ample reason to de-
nounce the designing knaves who made them the
dupes of political agitation and religious controversy
