This day June 800 the Election for the
city of Dublin came on at the Sessions
house in Green-street. Mr. Graitan was
proposed BY Mr. Latouche, and seconded
by Mr.. Guinness. Mr. Shaw was propos-
ed BY the Lord Mayor, and seconded by
. Mr. Ball, the banker. There WAS no OPP
position, aud scarcely forty electors pres
! ent Both gentlemen made speeches, and
were very il recei ed by their 'udence
| Outrage on Mr.. Grdtfan, Pollock. we
regret exec ingiy TO state, that the popn-
lace broke out into act, of open outrage a
gainst their Representatives. A chair OF
considerable value, highly decorated, was
prepared for the Representatives, but from
the moment they appeared, they were re.
ceived with Kisses and groans. They had
not proceeded twenty PAGES up Henry
street, when violent assault commenced.
The fsg-bearers, in the front of the car,
were attacked with great fury, and were o.
b!iged to convert their hag-staves into
weapons of defence. The battle, however,
was short. Missiles began to o. in all d.
rections, and we have TO state, with mix
ture of indignation and horror, that Mr..
Grattan received confusion in the fore
head he was obliged 10 descend from the
car, which was instantly torn into atoms.
The Right Hon. Gentleman took shelter
in house in Mary-street, and Mr.. Shaw
retired also.

DuJli': Evening Post Office, three o'clock.
The people in immense multitudes con-
tinued TO collect around the house Of Mr..
Preston, (where Mr.. Gra,tan took refuge)
assuming every moment more determined
and terocious appearance.
Mr.. Guinness, Mr.. Gratian, jun and 9TH
ers, addressed them from the window, but
it appeared 10 produce only the tranquility
of a moment. Lord Charlemon,, and a
number OF other Gentlemen appeared at The
window, when Mr.. Phillips was recognized
in the street by the multitude. who mme-
diately insisted that he should address them
He was accordingly admitted into The
house, and he, Mr.. Guinness, and Lord
CharIemont, stood together upon the plat
form beneath the window. When silence
was restored, Mr.. Phillips spoke in SUBJ
stance nearly as follows:
My ielow-countrymen, you know well
that feel for the humb!est man amonest
you,-(Cries Of sac do, we do. land you
know aIao what | feel for my county,
Ceres Of Braro. in the name, then, of
the character, not only Of that humblest
man, hut Of that country also, call on YOU
TO redeem both from the stain which this
days abominable turpitude has cast upon
il. You have wrongs, and know them
feel them-but in the name Of God ,wreak
these wrongs upon your enemies, and not
upon your jealous and inde;atigable friend.
Remember, he it was that gave you con-
stllution-and remember too, If all were
like HIM, my poor countrymen would still
have country. (.ippiause) Here do |,
one OF yourselves, address you, in behalf of
yourselves beha!:' OF the man Of the
people, and standing by the son of that
glorious Chariemont whom em2hatically
call the Notieman Of the people. (Here
there was an universal burst Of applause,
and Lord C.made his Acknowledgements.
