scriptions in smaller sums, for the erection of the nave,
might-be collected, whilst the other parts of the cathedral
were being erected. The site proposed is the high ground
at Cheetwood, rather towards Broughton. The Manches-

'naguitude, these suggestions are on a reduced scale
worthy of such a see as Y 'hest/

would ask, could the fienda of h—ll invent anything more
horrible than this ?" We need hardly remark, that the
premises of Mr. O'Connell, as his inference is out-
: rageous. There are persons both in Ireland and England
who, after feeding the people, think it their duty to take

French. They are, all of them, exceedingly fervent in
regard to the distresses of Ireland, but seem to forget that
the necessities in their own immediate neighbourhood, or
that of the provinces, are nearly as severe. The Chamber
