speech of DANIEL O'CsNNEIL at the Dublin Ex-
change in reply to Sir Robert Peal's threat OF en-
ploying force to put down tie Repeal move
ment -
I" Bat we are told that some desperate measures
are to be taken for the suppression OF public
opinion upon the question Of Repeal; and that
they have 1t in contemplation to bring in cocr-

Sir Robert Feel tells uS-the newspaper SIR
Robert Peel-that he has been authorised by the
Queen TO express her Majcsty's concurrence IN
the sentiments which he uttered. don't believe
a word of it. There is ministerial art OF lying
that is, not lying per sc, but quasi lylng-a
sub-modum sort OF lying, and 1t IS OF this sort
the newspaper Sir Robert Peel had avaled him.
SELF Every body knows that the Sovereign says
nothing, and that the words put into her mouth
arc those Of the minister. They are SO IN the
present instance, and consequently are not the
words of her Majesty. The Queen Is CON-
ing over here, and she is welcome God bless
her She is in the hands of her enemies. the
