TO THE PEOPLE OF IRELAND.

Merrion- square, 11th Feb., 1844.
FELLOW-COUNTRYMEN,—Once again I return you nif
most heartfelt thanks tor the peace, quiet, and good order
you have observed; and I conjure you by the country we
all love, and even in the name of the God we all adore, to•
continue in the same peace, quietness, perfect trail'
quillity.
I tell you solemnly that your enemies and the enemies-.
of Ireland are very desirous that there should be a breaking
out of tumult,
riot, or other outrage. Be you, therefore,
perfectly peaceable. Attack nobody. Offend nobody'
Injure no person. If you respect your friends—if yoll_
wish to gall your enemies—keep the peace, and let not one
single act of violence be committed.
You are aware that the jury have found a verdict agaiost
me. But depend upon it that 1 will bring a writ of error.
and will not acqiesce in the law, as laid down against
until I have the opinion of the twelve judges in Irelana;
and, if necessary, of the House of Lords.
Be you, therefore, perfectly quiet. Do no violence
whatsoever. You could not possibly offend or grieve me
half so much as by any species of riot, assault, or out'
rage.

It is said that the great question of repeal has been la'
jured by this verdict.
Do not believe it. It is not true. On the controlt
the result of this verdict will be of most material service:
to the repeal if the people continue to keep as peaceful'
they have hitherto been, and as I am sure they will eon
tinue to be.
