IRELAND.
This ill-iatcd country, that has been
so long oppressel-;hat has so lonx
been borne down by the vexntious i'm
positions of the British Crown---this
country whose inhabitants have no su-

quarrel.
Mr.. O'Conncll moved, "That tho
objects of the Association he for the
purpose of obtaining the repeal Of tho
Union, by legal, constitutional, md
pcaceablc means" There should be,

Union, from every city, town, county,
village, parish, and hamlet in Ireland
signed by every man who can write
and hy those who can only atiix their
mark. This manly expression of the
universal feeling that is abroad here,
will soon convince the Government Of
the impossibiliiy Of keeping things as
they are in IreIand---in fact, of with
holding n repeal Of the Legislative T.
mon"
Let Irishmen pcrscvere, and freedoms
must be theirs.
