full and effectual justice to Ireland in any other
than a domestic Legislature. None but an
Irish Parliament will ever consent to extln-

He concludes in the following words
propose, that there shall be formed in each
county, city, and large town in Ireland, "a Llbe-
raj Club" principally for the following purpos-
es:-
LIST. To suppress agrarian crimes and out
RACES.
Sd. To suppress. by legal means, and to pun
ish by due course of law, the members of Orange
Lodges and all other Orange criminals.
Sd. To procure, by legal and constitutional
means, the total extinction OF tlthes, IN nature, as
well as name.
4th. To attend to the elective franchise
throughout Ireland SO as to secure the return TO
Parliament Of friends Of Ireland.
5th To advance and secure the restoration
Of domestic Legislature to Ireland.
All of these are of great mpartance--the last
is the most important of all; but the most pres
sing is the extinction OF tthes, and also the most
immediately practical. If the Irish people ex-
ert themselves as they ought to do, tithes will
speedily be extinguished by law. This is the
point on which we ought to combine-the con-
stitutional extinction of tithes. And, Tor my
part will CO. Operate with every" Liberal CluD"
which concurs in that alone. feel strongly
that we have this game completely in our
hands, and that if the tithes were once eXtln-
guished, the moral effect of 4 victory over the
Orange faction would be to destroy their power
forever.

tons.

FRANCE.
From France, there is little news Of any in

Two or three minor engagements had occurred,
and it was reported that terrible battle was
