tense anxiety the result OF the move
ments now going on there. The de-
cided stand taken by the Peel adj
ministration on the subject Of repeal
does not seem to have caused any
abatement in the enthusiasm of the
Repealers, and we have accounts Of
their meetings, large and small, in
all parts of Ireland. 1t is evident,
however, that O'Connell, the master
spirit of the cause-is moving with
rather more caution and circumspec
ton. He does not deem it expedi
ent to push matters to extremes,as he
knows full we'll that the Irish people
are very impulsive, and are not yet
prepared to push an actual revolu-
ton with any hope Of success.
Ireland absorbs, at the present
moment, the exclusive attention of
the British Ministry and the British
people. The Repeal movements
continue to make the most gigantic
strides, the whole country is in
fearful state of excitement, and Mr..
O'Cornell, after visiting Cork and
various other parts of Ireland, has
returned to Dublin. During his
sojourn in the provinces, hundreds of
thousands of his countrymen congre-
gated at his beck, and his progress
resembled a continuous ovation fl ON
bis outset until his return. The
great bulk Of the Catholic clergy
have thrown themselves head-long
into the movement.
All the Irish forts, castles, and
battlements have been inspected by
a government engineer, and ordered
to be repaired and placed in a state
of perfect utility. Indeed, the pre-
parations of government are such as
would indicate that a civil war is
not far distant.
Some Roman Catholic Bishops are
about to prepare prayer for the
safety of Daniel OConnell.
The troops stationed in Ireland
will amount, in June, to about 25,-
600 men. .."...
Almost every door in the city has
chalked upon it, "Repeal or Blood!'
C01k Consultation.
Mr.. O'Connell will not leave he
land to attend his parliamentary du-
| ties before the 10th of June.
There is rumor that many regi-
ments located in Ireland are in ia
vor Of Repeal.
