VIEWS OF IRISH AFFAIRS.

In the following Extra9 from the Re-.
T,met Cordor', " Bi0ory of the Civil War in

inNrumeuts which they employed and the
arguments which they e. forciSly aldrelicsl 70
the feelings of the people. We may throw in
TO fmall compass the rife and obi ,eas of this
memorable body, as they have been i,e,ched
out by the reverend author.
at the c,ofe OF the American war, the COM
hined fleets ofFrsrce and Srain were riding tri-
unphant in tie frif Channel, and the flores OF
Ireland, then deftitrte of any military force for
defence, were every moment threatened with
formidable invafion. In this perilous fituation,
the Briti;h minifry advifed her inhabitants to
take up arms and defend themfelvcs to the ut
mon of their power. The fpirit of the people
eagerly accepted ofthe invitation sand one hun
dred thoufand 7,oiunteers inRantly appeared,
felfclothed. s felf-accou.red. After having awed
their external enemies into inactivity, they be-
gan toturn their eyes towards the oppret1ions of
their internal policy. With arms in their hands,
they demanded redrefs of their grievances |;
and in the year 7ss, the national legislature
was declared independent of Great Brita n
What was granted, not from humanity or iuhice
but from fear, was foon refunded or diluted hy
the policy of the Britifh minifry. They con-
trlved to brig about as foon as pofiible, the
dIfolu,ion Of thefe voluntary afociations; they
attempted to break down the union OF national
fentirnent by every art of caiolng or corruption,
and in 1874, the Britih parliament went the
full length Of annihiatng the independence 70
lately ex:orted, and irr2ofed new reft,iStons
on their trade s. manufactures. The indignant
on of the Irifh at This treacherous proceeding,
AT !ength fuggefed to fome more daring minds
the necefIity of embracing wider fphere of po
ltical freedom.

at Dungannon, confiling of the representatives

Many eonjetlures have been made as TO tbe p,,ura,

red that its eaufe might be volcan.c. or burning

but more probably, thar it is effea.d by fone mvs.

following may be relied on as faa.-on Sunday

O'Clock in the evening, from the windows Of the az
Mr. Groi's hoofe, Hartford, VT we noticed the Au-
rora Bcreals; the bottom of it elevated but few de.
grees above the horizon, lay in a regular line. and
very bright, and not much wider than the rainbow :

concluded. however, that it would be needef for u,
