When we say we hope this, we cannot help observing,
Oat some of the. Irish papers, and amongst diem a bloody-
Mieded vehicle called the HERALD, are labouring
hard to instigste to the shedding of blood upon this
etia.ion. This very base paper has a lung article on
Toulay last, in which it endeavours to prove, that the
teas nho threw the bottle and be who threw the bit of
woad, were guilty of high treason, and hints, indeed

be wily convinced that it was o terNing of rear against
lie King ! That is enough for our readers. Such

battle man just as our bloody t.t/d Times pursued the
Intartnnate CASHMAN. Fickle as these papers are in
Ow:. respects, in o thing they are ateady—they are
